A woman, usually in her early to mid 30s, who marries a man at least 10 years older who already has children in their teens. She then forces him to give her a new baby to piss off the existing children, make him forget about his first wife and make the new mom the queen bee of the family.
Mary was still in middle school when her new husband started his first job out of college. Now they have a 2-year-old baby and of course the old baller hates his two kids.

What is biochar?
Biochar is a carbonized material produced at high temperatures in a zero or low oxygen environment. This charcoal substance has a porous crystalline structure, and can be used to increase soil fertility (IBI 2010). Since the discovery of the Terra Preta soils of the Amazon, where biochar / charcoal incorporation is providing benefits of increased nutrients and soil CEC even after abandonment up to 2000 years ago (Sombroek et al. 2003, Glazer et al. 2002) there has been increased interest in biochar production and use.
Uses: carbon storage, soil improvement, fuel
First coined by Peter Read, biochar was envisioned to refer to charcoals which are prepared for soil improvement which would potent provide a potentially very large scale carbon storage mechanism (Read 2009).
1. Carbon storageBiochar has carbon storage properties – as is purported to persist in the soil, since is resistant to microbial degradation in the soil (Baldock & Smernik 2002) for several hundred up to thousands of years (IBI 2010) with Warnock et al. (2007) identifying 5,000 years as a common estimate. Plants uptake carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis and a proportion of this can be fixed in biochar and stored long-term in soil (Lehmann 2007).
2. Soil improvementThe properties of biochar which can provide benefits to the soil (composition, stability) depend on the process conditions (temperature, pressure) and feedstock (Brownsort 2009, Baldock & Smernik 2002). The biochar from Anila stove has been investigated to determine suitability of the biochar it produces as an agricultural amendment with encouraging results. The biochar was found to be of a consistent nature in terms of pH and conductivity. The yield of biochar was also enough for a yearly application rate of 0.5t/ha which would be ideal for users with small areas of land – typically the poorest farmers (Iliffe 2009).
Soil structure and physical propertiesBiochar can provide water retention benefits, increase the infiltration rate and also reduce the soil albedo (reflectance of the soil – which can be beneficial in cold regions) (ref). Chan et al (2007) observed improvements to hardsetting soil including reduction in tensile strength and increases in field capacity and also pH when >50t/ha biochar was added.
Chemical / nutrient inputA high pH biochar will have a liming effect. In addition there are bio-available nutrients in the biochar, including N and P and metal ions (Sombroek et al 1993).
Interaction with fertilizer and nutrient retentionBiochar retains cations better than other forms of soil organic matter, and this ability increases as the biochar ages in the soil (Lehmann 2007). It is the high CEC of biochar which increases the retention of available nutrients in the soil (available N as NH4+) as well as any added nutrients.
Chan et al (2007) showed that biochar addition with fertiliser increased radish production, although biochar amendment alone did not increase the yield of radish. Changes in soil quality were also noted. A related effect is also identified in Asai et al (2009), where the addition of biochar is dependent on the presence of nutrients or fertilizer to produce positive benefits to rice growth. Some studies also point to reduction in availability of N where fertilizer is not added in combination with biochar (Asai et al. 2009), or no benefit to crop growth (Rondon et al 2007).
Emissions reductionsWhere there is organic matter in the soil, biochar can reduce not only the loss of nutrients, but also the resultant gases from the breakdown process. Enrichment of poultry manure with biochar led to reduced nitrogen losses in mature composts (Dias et al 2009).
The priming effectThe priming effect (the accelerated decomposition of organic material in the soil) may lead to increased availability of nutrients from other organic sources in the soil, however more research needs to be done on this topic (UKBRC 2010).
Interaction with legumesRondon et al (2007) showed that the addition of biochar led to an increased proportion of fixed nitrogen when added used to grow nitrogen fixing plants. Three related mechanisms were identified which lead to this:
- there could be more mycorrhizal activity inside the biochar, which can bring more nutrients to plant roots which seek out biochar in the soil
- the N ratios is lower in the soil due to low C:N in biochar
- increased availability of micro nutrients and higher pH
Long term benefitsThe effect that the biochar has on the soil and on crop growth will also depend on the interactions with the soil type and soil microbes. This will also influence the longevity of the biochar, since biochar will after a period of time will oxidize and eventually degrade in the soil (Novak et al 2010).
It is likely that as the labile carbon fraction is lost, the initial input of nutrients will only be a short term benefit. However as biochar ages and particle size decreases, CEC will increase (Novak et al 2010).
3. Fuel
Depending on the feedstock used, biochar can also be used as a fuel (particularly wood biochar). It can be burned fully in the stove in which it is produced or, it can be extinguished (i.e. quenched with water) and stored for use later in a charcoal stove. Biochars generally have better fuel qualities than dried biomass, in terms of moisture and volatiles, and also tend to have a high energy density (Abdullah 2010). The ash content can be variable depending on the feedstock - different biomass components from the Mallee tree were tested by Abdullah (2010) and were found to have large changes in ash content. The grindability was found to vary, and was highest in the wood biochar, and this is beneficial if the biochar is to be processed, for example into pellets.
Charcoal making in Bantey Srei, Cambodia. Charcoal and charcoal fines are biochar.
More info on the calorific values of biochar?
How is biochar produced?
Biochar is a product of thermal decomposition of wood, and other biomass sources (Lehmann 2007). These processes include pyrolysis and gasification and the products are syngas, solid residue (including biochar and ash) and liquid (including tars).
PyrolysisIndustrial processes can be divided into fast and slow pyrolysis. Slow pyrolysis is a slow heating rate and a lower temperature (generally 300 – 500oC). Carbonisation occurs, where carbon is a major product (as in biochar production) together with syn-gas and liquids. Pyrolysis is chemical decompostion at high temperatures. The word comes from greek derived 'pyro' fire, and lysis 'decomposition'. Unlike combustion water, oxygen or any other reagents are not required.
A small amount of air is required for gasification but not enough to complete the burn. In gasification cooks stoves, it is the syngas which is burned to produce the heat. The gas will mainly comprise of carbon monoxide (FOE 2009, Horne 2006, IAP 2010, Sohi et al 2009). A wide spectrum of technologies using pyrolysis and gasification are available, from medium to large scale industrial continuous units, for example Ankur http://www.ankurscientific.com/ biomass gasification units to small scale batch units including cook stoves. !!Feedstock
Any biomass can potentially be used to produce biochar including wood, crop residues, paper sludge and coconut shells (Abdullah 2010, Hossain 2010, Warnock 2007)
Any biomass can potentially be used to produce biochar including wood, crop residues, paper sludge and coconut shells (Abdullah 2010, Hossain 2010, Warnock 2007)
Biochar producing cook stovesImproved cook stoves provide benefits which typically include increasing efficiency and reducing smoke production. Gasification stoves in addition to these benefits also produce biochar which can increase food production (where biochar is used as a soil amendment) and can thus reduce hunger. Gasification stoves can therefore provide part of the solution for 7 out of the 8 Millennuim Development Goals which aim to reduce global poverty (Warwick & Doig 2004).
Pyrolysis temperatures of 450-550oC will maximize biochar production (Lehmann 2007) which is may be higher than for most stoves, although the belonio wood gasifier can operate at temperatures 400-450oC measured with a pyrometer at the top of the flame (Belonio & Atmowidjojo n.d.). Most stoves are designed specifically to produce a clean flame suitable for cooking and not necessarily to maximize biochar production, but they can produce between 25 and 30% biochar weight from the initial feedstock weight (Samuchit 2010). This is about the maximum which would be expected from slow pyrolysis conditions (Brownsort 2009).
In addition, biochar produced below 400oC, which may be the case in many cook stoves will have a lower pH and lower CEC, however since these properties are reported to increase over time as the biochar ages in the soil, the benefits will still be provided (Lehmann 2007).
In stoves which produce biochar, pyrolysis and gasification will occur resulting in biochar production, then if incineration is allowed to follow, the biochar will turn into ash.
If at this point the stove is extinguished, then as mentioned before, the biochar can be kept for other purposes (for example as a soil amendment) or as a fuel later.

20 top tips for keeping your tractor in tip top condition
1. Store your tractor out of the elements if possible. The more extreme weather conditions of sun, wind and snow will age your tractor at an accelerated rate. A simple and inexpensive shelter will keep your agricultural equipment looking and running better for much longer.
2. If you're going to be storing your tractor for over a year it is advisable to reduce the tyre pressure below normal, or to remove the tyres altogether and support your tractor on jackstands. This will relieve pressure from the wheel bearing and suspension. Your tyres should also be stored in a dry cool place and should be kept out of direct sunlight.
3. Most tyre manufacturers will advise you to inflate your tractor tyres 10-15 lbs over the maximum air pressure indicated on the tire to get them ready for storage. This helps prevent flat spots from forming. This over inflation is only for storage. When you're ready to hit the road make sure to bring the pressure back to normal.
4. If storing your tractor for a long period disconnect the tractor battery and connect it to a trickle charger to keep it alive. This will reduce the risk of fire and electrical issues further on down the line.
5. When storing your tractor top off fluids including oil, brake, clutch and hydraulics. If you're confident that there are no fire hazards in your storage facility, you could top off the fuel as well. For maximum security, replace all fluids with a fresh supply. Older fluids are likely to contain contaminants that can cause rust, corrosion and mechanical failure. Topping off the fluids leaves less space for moisture to accumulate.
6. Add stabilizers to your tractor fluids to prevent them from deteriorating. Fuel stabilizer prevents the formation of gum and varnish which can clog your tractor engine. Follow the manufacturers instructions. You should typically drive your tractor around for 10 miles to fully circulate the stabilizers before storing it.
7. Regularly change the oil and filter in your tractor when it is in use. Used tractor oil contains acids, moisture and combustrion byproducts that can cause corrosion inside your tractor's engine.
8. Set up a scheduled, regular maintenance program for oil and filter changes on your tractor. The engine oil and filter should be changed every 150 hours and hydraulic oils changed at 1,200 hours. Check your operator's manual for exact change interval as it varies by make and model. At least have the filter changed yearly and the oil every two years.
9. Don't skimp and buy bargain engine oil. The engine is the lifeblood of your tractor, has the most moving parts and is usually the most costly to repair or replace. Many over-the-counter name brand oils are formulated for on-road truck use only and are not designed for off-road application in a dirty environment. Long term use of these oils can reduce the life of your engine.
10. Use the correct grade of hydraulic oil for your tractor. Newer tractors with power shift and reverser transmissions require special additives and viscosities of oil from the transmission to operate correctly. The little you save now on cheaper hydraulic oil will only cost you big money in the future.
11. Keep all the fluids in your tractor at recommended levels. Oil, water, hydraulic, transmission and brake fluids should be checked before each use and replenished whenever necessary.
12. Put a drop of oil on every nut, bolt and screw on your tractor. This prevents these parts from corroding, rusting or seizing up from dryness. Do this every few months (monthly for light duty machinery or equipment that will be left out in the weather) and future repairs will be much easier. A pump oilcan with a long, flexible snout will make this procedure much easier.
13. Pull the spark plugs out of your tractor and pour a teaspoon of fresh oil into each cylinder and then replace the plugs. The oil will coat the cylinders and help to fight rust.
14. Your tractor radiator needs to be checked and cleaned and the coolant level check daily when the tractor is used regularly. The radiator needs to be flushed, and new antifreeze added at least twice a year. A coolant conditioner/stabilizer additive is a good, inexpensive investment to reduce electrolysis. PH tape now can be used to confirm when your antifreeze needs to be changed and/or when conditioner needs to be added.
15. When draining the tractor cooling system replace it with fresh coolant specifically formulated for your tractor engine type. The wrong coolant can cause damage to your tractor's engine and in some cases even void your manufacturer's warranty.
16. Maintenance of your tractor's air conditioning system is also important. You need to regularly check the A/C condenser and keep it blown out and clean. The A/C condenser is located under the hood in front of the radiator on most models. Older model tractors may need Freon added each year, due to small leaks in the A/C system. It's best to find a warm day in the spring and check the system, and repair it early before it gets busy.
17. Small tractors can be quickly and severely damaged by big jobs. Loader and 3PH arms can be bent by too-heavy loads, transmissions can be burned out by pulling against too-strong forces and implements can be broken by being used inappropriately. With small tractors, large jobs must often be done with finesse, rather than with brute force. A big job can sometimes be broken up into several smaller jobs, which are not problematic for smaller equipment. With small tractors, take small bites.
18. Wash off as much mud and grass from your tractor and accessories with a hose or pressure washer as often as you can. Wet grass and mud stuck to metal parts is an ideal environment for rust or corrosion.
19. Spare parts for your chosen tractor should be readily available and affordable.
20. Usually you can expect a year's warranty on a new tractor, covering both labour and parts.

How long does it usually take for a book to be considered obsolete?
Some books I've acquired like Counter Hack: reloaded are still going to be relevant in the present/near future (namely because of the methodology of what they teach) but others seem to be one trick ponies that work against a certain webapps that have been patched up since the book was released and this goes into my current situation.
Lately, I've been looking into the Hacker's Handbook series by whiley and while they do have good reviews, a lot of them are a bit dated(2007) and I have no idea if it will be presenting problems and issues that have already been patched up.
This there some merit in this train of thought or am I just worrying too much.

[Article]-Doxing and Anti-Doxing – Part I
Speaking of fun, if you can, catch Jason at DerbyCon speaking on this very topic of doxing.
Permanenet link: [Article]-Doxing and Anti-Doxing – Part I
By Jason Andress
For those of us following or taking part in the various hacktivist activities happening around the globe on a regular basis, doxing is a regular feature. We wake up in the morning to find the personal lives of businessmen, hackers who have made target of themselves for one reason or another, government employees, and a host of others spilled out onto the Internet for the entire world to see. Doxing can be a tool for use in security testing, investigation, or research on the positive side. But it can also be a tool for humiliation, harassment, and worse on the negative side.
In the Part I of this article, we will discuss what exactly doxing is and the tools and techniques we might use to carry out such an attack. In the Part II of this article we will talk about the steps we can take to at least lessen its impact, should we find ourselves on the receiving end of such efforts.

Starting Position: Stand facing your partner approximately an arm's length away from one another. Your feet should be slightly wider than hip width apart and your toes pointed forward or slightly outward. Each partner reaches out his or her arms so that you can each grasp the other's forearms.
Downward Phase: Each partner should start the downward phase by hinging at the hips and shifting the hips back and down. This will also create a hinge-like movement at the knees. As you continue to lower your hips, the knees will start to shift forward slowly. Try to prevent your knees from moving too far forward beyond the toes. Brace your core to keep your trunk stable and spine straight. Each partner should maintain a firm grip and allow one another to lean back slightly in order to be able to sink deeper into the hips for greater range-of-motion.
Both partners continue to lower themselves until their thighs are near, or parallel with the floor. If the heels begin to lift off the floor or the torso begins to round, return to start position. Be aware of any movement that may occur at your feet, ankles and knees. Work to ensure that the feet do not move, the ankles do not collapse in or out and the knees remain lined up with the second toe. Return to a standing position.Lowered Position: From the front, the knees should continue to remain aligned with the second toe, and body weight should be evenly distributed over both feet. From the side, your shinbone should be parallel with your torso and the low back should appear flat or maybe showing the beginning of some rounding.
Upward Phase: While keeping a firm grip on one another's forearms, each person should maintain a straight trunk with a head-up position. Exhale and press the feet into the floor through the heels. The hips and torso need to rise together, returning to the start position while keeping heels flat on the floor and knees aligned with the second toe.
Exercise Variation: Each partner can place his or her feet in a split-squat position. The feet should be hip width apart and one foot slightly in front of the other. Each partner can balance on a single leg and perform a single leg squat. The act of the partners holding on to one another during the squatting movement will help to maintain the balance on one leg.
Technique is very important in this lift. The tendency is to hold the shinbone too vertical, which forces you to lean your torso too far forward. Using a mirror for feedback, shift your shinbone forward while keeping your heels on the floor, then bring your torso upright, but do so from the hips and not through the low back. Squeeze your abdominals to help prevent the excess arching in the back with this correction. If using a squat rack, the safety rungs on the rack should be positioned at mid-thigh level.

Chong, Doryun. "Martin Puryear." In Bits & Pieces Put Together to Present a Semblance of a Whole: Walker Art Center Collections, edited by Joan Rothfuss and Elizabeth Carpenter. Minneapolis, MN: Walker Art Center, 2005.
© 2005 Walker Art Center
Martin Puryear's art achieves a balance of homespun craftsmanship and refined abstraction. His remarkable body of work undeniably reflects the rich experiences of his early years. Upon graduating from college in 1963 as an art major with a concentration in painting, Puryear joined the Peace Corps and went to Sierra Leone, where he taught secondary school and also became acquainted with local carpenters and cabinetmakers. He then spent two years studying at the Royal Academy of Art in Stockholm, a decision that was in part impelled by his interest in Scandinavian design. Returning to the United States, he enrolled in the graduate program in sculpture at Yale University. There, Puryear found himself in the midst of a hotly contested art-historical turning point in which ideas reigned supreme, the traditional notion of "making" gave itself over to industrial manufacture and fabrication, and art-making per se was being retooled.
Instead of siding with one school of thought or the other, Puryear found an alternative—making art that refused to distinguish between "art" and "making." He pursued a sculptural methodology that incorporated everything from traditional carving and modeling to carpentry, furniture-making, joinery, cooperage, basketry, and even masonry and stonecarving. Each piece distinct from the next, Puryear's abstract sculpture brings up generously allusive associations with a range of natural or constructed forms: ship's prow, wheels, birds, conch shells, tendrils, and pea pods, among others. Though he rarely foregrounds his African American identity, he has at times expressed his admiration for and sense of connection to certain historical figures—most prominently, James Beckwourth, a little-known, late eighteenth-century mixed-race explorer who had an incredibly colorful life.1
In 1987, the Walker Art Center commissioned Puryear to create a piece for the new Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Ampersand (1987–1988) is a pair of massive, almost identical columns made out of locally quarried granite. Each stands at more than thirteen feet, and together they guard the entrance to the park like totemic poles. At one end, each retains the texture of rough-hewn rock, while the other end is smoothed to form a rounded cone. They are oriented in opposite directions to create a kind of synthesis of antithetical energy, like yin and yang. Another of his pieces in the Walker collection, To Transcend (1987), represents an amalgamation of the various formal elements Puryear had explored in his earlier works. Simultaneously floor-based and wall-bound, it consists of a kidney bean–shaped base and a disk at the top that are connected via a gentle arc. The severity of the disk's whetted rim and the blunt roundedness of the base produce a subtle contrast of geometric and organic form. The title is fitting, as the overall shape hints at a germination from the earth emerging into a rational Archimedean form reminiscent of the disk supporting the sacred flame in a Greek temple. On another level, this dynamic piece may very well be a formalist allegory of "transcending" ideological dualisms—of artisanship and art, tradition and modernism, and "underdeveloped and developed"—to which Puryear's art continues to aspire.2

Canon EOS 600D in depth reviewThursday March 17 2011 Sensor Review
The new EOS 600D brings no improvement over the 550D other than a few features. The two sensors perform exactly the same, and show the same persistent noise problem in dark areas at low ISO speeds, preventing it from achieving good dynamic range metrics. By contrast, Sony's new sensors have efficiently solved this issue. Competition may be tough between Sony and Nikon, but Canon continues to lag behind them both.
Further readings for the Canon EOS 600D in depth review
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
We are already acquainted with the D3200: apart from a few ergonomic details, it's the same camera as the compact and lightweight D3100 SLR, though missing the secondary display on its bridge for even greater compactness. The D3200 weighs only 454 grams (without battery or card). Unlike the D3100, the D3200's lens is off-center for better balance and the highly practical LiveView/video mode activation tab of the D3100 and the D5100 has disappeared in favor of a more ergonomically mundane video recording button. The D3200 comes with a second (dorsal) infrared sensor to complement its front sensor for more practical infrared remote control. The motor selection tab (single-frame, burst, timer, remote control) is gone as well, again replaced by a direct-access button.
The EOS 600D looks much like the EOS 550D, which, however, it does not replace. Both bodies will remain in Canon's lineup. The 600D utilizes most of the 550D's hardware features, including its 18-megapixel sensor; it adds an articulated screen, along with the "beginners" functions and creative filters first seen on the EOS 60D.
The review is available here.

OWASP Top 10 2013
This is a release candidate intended only for comments.
Insecure software is undermining our financial, healthcare, defense, energy, and other critical infrastructure. As our digital infrastructure gets increasingly complex and interconnected, the difficulty of achieving application security increases exponentially. We can no longer afford to tolerate relatively simple security problems like those presented in this OWASP Top 10.
The goal of the Top 10 project is to raise awareness about application security by identifying some of the most critical risks facing organizations. The Top 10 project is referenced by many standards, books, tools, and organizations, including MITRE, PCI DSS, DISA, FTC, and many more. This release of the OWASP Top 10 marks this project's eleventh year of raising awareness of the importance of application security risks. The OWASP Top 10 was first released in 2003, with minor updates in 2004 and 2007. The 2010 version was revamped to prioritize by risk, not just prevalence. This 2013 edition follows the same approach.
We encourage you to use the Top 10 to get your organization started with application security. Developers can learn from the mistakes of other organizations. Executives should start thinking about how to manage the risk that software applications create in their enterprise.
In the long term, we encourage you to create an application security program that is compatible with your culture and technology. These programs come in all shapes and sizes, and you should avoid attempting to do everything in a process model. Instead, leverage your existing organization's strengths and measure what works for you.
We hope that the OWASP Top 10 is useful to your application security efforts. Please don't hesitate to contact OWASP with your questions, comments, and ideas, either publicly to firstname.lastname@example.com or privately to email@example.com.

Pittsfield Police Asking Residents To ID Stolen Property
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Police have recovered hundreds of pieces of jewelry and other items that are not matching up with their records of items reported stolen in a recent rash of break-ins.
Anyone who has had their home broken into prior to March 22 is being asked to identify their possessions at an open house on Saturday, June 8, from 10 to 2 at the Police Department on Allen Street.
Police say the items either haven't been reported stolen or were stolen from homes outside of city. The investigation is being done by state, Cheshire, Lanesborough and Pittsfield police. Some of the recovered property has already be linked to break-ins in those communities and in Richmond.
Police have arrested Christopher Maschino Jr., 21, and Anne Haughey, 21, both of Pittsfield, in connection with the break-ins.
Even if the owners of the seized property can identify it, they cannot take possession of their items immediately because they are being held as evidence until released by the district attorney's office.
Attendees are required to bring a valid identification to the open house and are asked to bring any ownership documents.
Richmond's New Fire Command Vehicle on the RoadRICHMOND, Mass. — From the most recent town newsletter is the report that the new Fire Command vehicle has been delivered and is in active service.
Town meeting approved taking $40,000 from free cash for the new 4-wheel drive last May to replace a 2005 Ford Taurus that officials called "ill-equipped" for the Fire Department's needs.
Richmond Man May Be Missing
Family and friends of Dr. Michael Roth, a veterinarian in Richmond, are concerned that he might be missing.
The first report of his possible disappearance was posted by Dan Valenti, a regular contributor to The Pittsfield Gazette. In his blog Planet Valenti, he put out a plea asking anyone who knew of Roth's whereabouts to call the state police barracks in Lee or to contact Valenti himself. According to police, Roth's elderly parents, who live in Kinderhook, N.Y., were worried because they had not heard from their son in nearly a week.
As of this Tuesday morning, according to state police in Lee, no one has filed a missing person case on Roth's behalf.
Several calls made to Roth's house this morning went unanswered.
Michael Roth has a mobile medical practice and is affiliated with the Animal ER of the Berkshires as well as the Berkshire Veterinary Hospital.
Several photos of him can be found at his Meetup page, where he describes himself as a "vegan veterinarian living just over the NY line in Richmond." According to his profile there, he belongs to several vegan groups as well as the Berkshire Enthusiasts through which he signed up last week for a Moonlight Snowshoe Trek this Thursday night, Jan. 20, at the Arcadia Shops.
If you have any information as to his whereabouts, contact the state police barracks in Lee at 413-243-0600 or e-mail Valenti at firstname.lastname@example.com.
As of Thursday, repeated calls to Roth's home have gone unanswered.

Man Struck, Killed by Train in Richmond
RICHMOND, Mass. — A 28-year-old man was struck and killed by a train in Richmond late Tuesday afternoon. The man's name had not yet been released pending notification of kin.
According to an eyewitness, it appeared that the man jumped in front of the moving train.
State police detectives assigned to the district attorney's office, in charge of the investigation, say the CSX freight train struck the man about 4 p.m. in the vicinity of Town Beach Road. Dr. Benjamin Glick, a local state medical examiner, pronounced the man dead at the scene.
State police investigators were assisted at the scene by state troopers from the Lee barracks, members of the Pittsfield Police Department and the Richmond Volunteer Fire Department.
Update: Police on Wednesday afternoon released the man's name. He was Nicholas Van Alstine of Amesbury. He was strucked and killed by a CSX freight train. According to eyewitnesses, it appeared that Van Alstine jumped in front of the moving train, and investigators are treating his death as a suicide.

Richmond Cottage Destroyed by Fire
RICHMOND, Mass. — With Thursday's high winds, it wasn't a good day to do any outside burning but apparently, one Richmond resident didn't think so — with terrible results.
Police Officer Tom Grizzy said volunteer firefighters from Richmond, Hancock, West Stockbridge and Canaan, N.Y., responded to the 1 p.m. call after sparks from a controlled burn landed on an abandoned cottage on Richmond Shores.
The cottage was totally destroyed by the blaze. After the fire was knocked down, a backhoe was brought in to level the smoldering ruins. Police said action against the neighbor who decided burn yard waste in high winds may be pending.

Dear All,
It has been my hope for awhile to make some traditional Buddhist holidays a bit more "family friendly". So, I would like to ask as many Sangha members as possible, especially those with kids, to try out some or all of the suggestions on the following webpage. Please post here in this thread about your experiences so that we can grow this further for the future ... perhaps start some "new timeless traditions!"
I want to thank Yugen and some of his helpers for coordinating this in the coming days and weeks.
A PEACEFUL ROHATSU, every-ONE!
Why this project?
It is often said that Buddhist groups in the West are somehow not very welcoming of children, and that we lack some things (found in both Buddhism in Asia and in other religions in the West) to communicate basic teachings and practices to kids. In both Asian Buddhism and for other religions in the West (but not yet so much for "Western Buddhism"), "religious holidays" can be a time for families to unite, to bond through customs and practices, and to bring children into the spirit of the time through the celebration. Holidays can be an important time to expose children to Buddhist teachings and values in ways that leave a lasting, positive impression for the future. Is there a way to make various Buddhist holidays more "kid friendly" while preserving the traditional message, values and customs of the original?
WITHOUT the department stores (by emphasizing, for example, giving to charity, unselfish giving to others, the making of homemade or Buddhism related presents), WITHOUT the glitz and commercialism, we can turn Rohatsu and some other holidays (such as Vesak in the Spring) into FAMILY FRIENDLY events WHILE PRESERVING THE TEACHINGS. The central messages of the holidays ... selflessness, generosity, non-attachment, peace, awakening, compassion, loving kindness ... can be both PRESERVED and PASSED ON to children in a positive way through the vehicle of these holidays. The message on these holidays is now conveyed through chanting and ritual ... so why not through joyous songs and home rituals that the whole family can partake in? NOTHING of the meaning, traditions and authenticity of these holidays need be lost.
The ideas on our "Buddhist Family Holidays" webpage are a work in progress ... and, we hope, will be further developed and grow with your input. Thus, there is a place for your ideas and comment on each subject (on the webpage and here in this thread), and we look forward to your input and contributions. Particularly, notice our "holiday song writing" and "story writing & art" sections, where we hope to receive submissions from all our Buddhist musicians, writers, artists, animators and the like who wish to create works that may, we hope, become a beloved part of these holidays for years to come.
Please put some or all of the ideas into practice in YOUR HOUSE, and report to us on how it all goes ...

This is the second of two puzzles we got for Christmas where the descriptions of the pieces in the solution do not match those in the actual puzzle. Looked like nice fun gifts, but just not so. Credit card company notified, they'll be returned for cheerful refunds after the Holidays.
This is a very simple puzzle. The pieces are a bit loose and can easily fall apart.
