EPJ Quantum Technology: Thematic Series on Space Applications of Quantum Technology
- Details
- Published on Monday, 27 July 2015 17:50
Space-based tests of fundamental physics have a long history, from early tests of general relativity to more recent missions such as gravity probe B and proposed missions to test the equivalence principle (STE-QUEST) and gravitational decoherence (MAQRO). These more recent proposals make extensive use of quantum technologies, from atomic clocks to weak force sensors. Deploying any technology into space pushes specifications to the limit and this will be especially true for quantum-enabled technologies. Recent advances in space technology as developed for experiments such as LISA and LISA Pathfinder have allowed researchers to optimally harness the space environment for quantum experiments.
This thematic series is dedicated to all aspects of space-based quantum technologies from fundamental physics to quantum communication protocols including proposals for new space-based quantum experiments as well as terrestrial experimental tests of new quantum technologies for space deployment

Will Rebecca have chance with thomas
Selina and Luke went to bed and Alex and James went to bed aswell. Leaving Rebbeca and Thomas all alone in the moon light. "Hey chick whats up" said Thomas. "Nothing u" whisperd becca. "You are so cute" said thomas, " so are you i think i better go to bed in a bit" said becca " so will i" said thomas. But there is only 3 beds, 1 for selina and luke and 1 for alex and james and 1 for becca and Thomas. Rebecca got up out of the chair and thomas unexspecadly smacked becca's bum and snogged her face off, becca put all of her effot into it Thomas put his hands all over her and they got faster and fasterand then they fell over back on the chair.

A home away from home — NSWCA overturns approval for fly-in fly-out accommodation - .PDF file.
The NSW Court of Appeal has overturned decisions of the Joint Regional Planning Panel and the NSW Land and Environment Court and held that a development consent for the construction and operation of 'workforce accommodation facility' was invalid.
The court held that the proposed development should be more properly characterised as a 'residential building', which is prohibited under the relevant zoning rules.
With the increasingly use of 'fly-in fly-out' (FIFO) accommodation for workers in the mining industry, this recent court decision is a timely reminder that development applications need to properly characterise the proposed development to ensure it is not a prohibited development under the relevant local environmental plan…

Ever since connections of Frankel decided against stretching out his phenomenal speed, the Investec Derby has seemed only to draft characters in search of a plot. All that is supposed to change at York today, however, when a warm favourite will surely volunteer himself from the convergence, in the Totesport Dante Stakes, of three of the first four in the Epsom betting. Certainly, it is an engrossing race – and a most unusual one, too, in that the odds should implore all self-respecting punters to the same conclusion.
Two of the three colts in question represent powerful Newmarket stables, and are preceded by big reputations. Having won their maidens in terrific style, moreover, both World Domination and Carlton House appear to have offered public corroboration for all the chat. But the cold fact of the matter is that there are dozens of impressive maiden winners every season, and the form of this pair for now leaves them plenty to find with Seville.
When set his first test in elite company, in the Racing Post Trophy last autumn, the Ballydoyle colt had himself won a maiden in runaway fashion. Raised in class at Doncaster, he was briefly taken off his feet but regrouped and kept responding to follow home the then unbeaten Casamento. Like Frankel, he is a son of Galileo, but his maternal pedigree – and more indolent style of racing – guarantees improvement over middle distances. The long, galloping straight here should allow Christophe Soumillon to wind him up through the gears, and establish whether these flashy, untested rivals have substance to match their style.
The fact that Carlton House is owned by the monarch has doubtless fuelled some of the hype, but he certainly looked the part in rolling nine lengths clear of a big field on soft ground at Newbury last autumn. The runner-up, Yaseer, is rated good enough to follow him here, having since managed third in the Craven Stakes. But Yaseer had an educational ride through beaten horses at Newbury and, as a very late foal, is expected to prove a different colt with time and distance.
World Domination did not make his debut until last month, likewise at Newbury, and it was certainly a scintillating display. His emergence for the same connections may well have contributed to their decision not to aim Frankel at Epsom, and you have to respect their judgement. In summary, both Carlton House and World Domination are entitled to prove themselves legitimate Derby colts today. As things stand, however, to make them basically the same price as Seville is a joke.
There was a cautionary tale here yesterday in the equivalent trial for fillies, the Tattersalls Musidora Stakes. Arizona Jewel, a maiden winner representing the same men as World Domination today, was going best on the home turn, but was ultimately left well behind as Joviality just shaded the experienced Group performer Barefoot Lady in an unsparing duel through the final furlong.
John Gosden will now keep Joviality at this intermediate distance in the Prix de Diane at Chantilly. "That was the top end of her trip," he said. "And that other filly wasn't going to go away – she was like a terrier. We got lucky on the nod, but we really like the way our horse has developed this spring. She was terribly big and weak last year, and we only got one run into her, but she has really come together now."
With all the trials now run, it is worth reiterating thatWonder Of Wonders' performance at Chester last week identifies her as clearly the biggest threat to Blue Bunting, the 1,000 Guineas winner. She can still be backed at 5-1 in places, but will surely start a good deal shorter on the day.
In fairness, Zain Al Boldan made a startling impression at Lingfield last Saturday – visually, at least – and her stable exalted another Folkestone winner to impress in a higher grade here when Gatepost beat several other winners in the novice race. He looks Royal Ascot material, and that meeting also beckons Delegator after he finally confirmed that sprinting is his true metier – as long suspected – in the Duke Of York Blue Square Stakes. Always coasting, he closed along the rail to beat Regal Parade half a length, and faster ground will help his cause in the Golden Jubilee Stakes.

I'm looking for a good marinade for some venison backstraps. I prefer not wrapping them in bacon as I don't want them to taste like bacon. Any ideas or suggestions?

A little Oil, a little Soy Sauce, a little Beer, Brown sugar, Onion, Garlic, Pepper, and seasoned salt. put it all in a ziplock bag and massage it into the meat and let it sit a few hours.

I'd go with something simple and since you aren't using a bacon wrap, for moistness you might try an oven bag with some holes poked in it to let the smoke in! Saw this on one of those outdoor sports programs. Let us know what you finally decide on-I have venison and elk backstraps to make!

I usually just sprinkle some of Jeff's rib rub and toss on the smoker, smoke to med rare. I think any marinade would overpower the flavor of the game.

We like Jeff's Rub, Cabelas Mountain Man Bourbon, or a lemon pepper rub. I have never used a bag and don't wrap in bacon just pull at 145 IT and it will be very juicy and tender. My dad can't stand to eat red meat so I have taken the last couple to 155 IT and they were still juicy and tender just not as red.

I dont rub or marinate backstraps, we like them just the way they are. Never had a problem with juicyness or flavor, unless its overcooked.
Although, a half garlic clove on top of each piece while cooking adds a nice flavor :)

October 2013 Markets Report: Chilling Charts in Time for Halloween
We've had a frightening 2013 so far — between a looming debt ceiling deadline, government shutdown and swirling stock market crash theories, it seems like the perfect storm of economic disasters are getting ready to take place during the scariest time of year.
So as we near Halloween 2013, let's take a look at interest rates, investment markets and other important financial factors to discover whether we should be more startled by haunted houses, scary movies or the economy this October.
Interest Rates Today
Deposit Rates
Interest rates on deposit accounts like savings and certificates of deposit have continued to fall through 2013. The drop hasn't been significant, but when dealing with already near-zero rates, any decrease is a significant blow for savers hoping to eek out a return on savings.
Even long-term CD rates are rivaling the most competitive high-yield savings accounts, with national averages failing to break one percent.
Auto Loan Rates
Good news for new car owners, auto loan rates have also been on the decline since the beginning of the year. Rates on 36-month auto loans currently average 3.64% APR, while 48-month and 60-month loans average 3.68% and 3.71% APR, respectively.
Mortgage Rates
After many months of experiencing new record-breaking lows, mortgage rates are finally beginning to tick upward again. New mortgage applications have sharply declined in response, and it's likely home financing will slow to a crawl through the rest of the year.
Stock Market Report
While savers are feeling the pinch, the stock market has responded positively to continued QE measures implemented by the Federal Reserve. The Fed will be holding another policy meeting this week and it's expected they will continue to monthly purchases of $85 billion in bonds and mortgage-backed securities. In fact, the S&P 500 recently made record gains.
US Dollar & Treasury Bonds
We experienced mounting fear that the U.S. government would default on its debt as Congress debated raising the debt ceiling amidst a shutdown and looming deadline. Though the debt ceiling debate rattled short-term bond yields a bit, long-term yields hardly changed with the expectation that the government would resolve the debt ceiling issue before defaulting.
Unemployment Rate
The Fed has indicated it will not pull back on quantitative easing and allow interest rates to rise until the unemployment rate falls below 6.5 percent. The unemployment still hovers above seven percent where it has remained all year, though it has dropped slightly from 7.9 percent in January to 7.2 percent as of September. However, some experts fear the falling unemployment rate is not due to new job creation, but fewer Americans eligible for benefits due to long-term unemployment.

Ryan Summons Back to the Ballpark the Man Who Ran Stadium Operations Way Back When
I've never seen a game at the Dell Diamond, home of the Round Rock Express, but friends who have rank it among the finest experiences in minor-league ball -- the very definition of fan-friendly. (I'm curious, though -- what was "Pajama Collection Night" on July 11, exactly?) So, then, no surprise Nolan Ryan's summoned back to the bigs Jay Miller, who, for the last six years, has been president and chief operating officer of the Express -- a gig for which he was hand-picked by Nolan and son Reid, who initially hired Miller in '98 to veep and GM the Astros' Triple-A club.
Miller's return to Arlington -- where, from '83 till '95, he was in charge of the Rangers' ticket operations and customer relations as Director of Stadium Administration -- is no big surprise; the club just sent over the release, but the Austin paper called it last Thursday, as Major League Baseball was OK'ing the Greenberg-Ryan team takeover. Miller will be the senior veep "involved in a number of areas in the Rangers business operation, including ticket and sponsorship sales and fan experience," according to the team.
And while this seems like a very behind-the-scenes, inside-baseball hire, consider: Miller's a baseball guy -- the kind of ballclub exec who says things like, "The biggest compliment you could give us is when you say we're baseball people. Because we are. I'm a firm believer that a baseball person, a guy that has a love for the game, should be running the club." And one Friend of Unfair Park who's worked for the Rangers for years says Miller's "one of those guys that has a great passion for baseball" and that his hire means "our customer service, ticket operations and fan experience just got 100% better." Now, if he could only do something about 193-degree temperatures at first pitch.

Population Explosion
Definition - What does Population Explosion mean?
Population explosion is used to describe a sudden increase in numbers within a certain species. The term is typically used when referring to the world's human population increase since the end of World War 2. This was attributed to an accelerated birthrate, decrease in infant mortality and an increase in life expectancy. The term can also be used when dealing with species in the plant or animal kingdom.
Safeopedia explains Population Explosion
Growth in the human population effects all individuals that are part of the population through it's far-reaching impact on the environment and economy. Overpopulation presents a significant burden to human well-being. Among the variety of problems caused by overpopulation, one major negative effect caused by overpopulation is scarcity of resources. Overpopulation means a lack of opportunities and less resources can be distributed to the individuals. Less population means a higher availability of resources and higher quality of living can be achieved in the absence of other factors.

Warnings: Foreign phrases, which are translated at the end for your enjoyment.
Spoilers: None. Set in the first season.
Disclaimer: Yeah, yeah, yeah, etc. All in fun, no profit.
"This game is called 'Snap'," Malcolm said, glancing about at Travis, Trip and Hoshi as he shuffled the cards. He tapped them firmly on the round table's surface, the sound loud in the near-empty mess.
"Snap?" asked Travis. "I've never heard of it."
Trip leaned towards Hoshi, sitting next to him at the small table, and whispered, "Must be British."
At her soft giggle, Malcolm flashed them both an evil look, then turned to Travis, smiling slightly. "Yes, I believe that it's a British game." He began to pass out the cards. "As the cards go down, look to see if they match. When you see a pair, say, 'Snap!'" He slammed his hand down on the table. "And you win the pile that's been put down." He glanced up to Trip. "But don't get Snap happy - if you get it wrong, you lose a point."
"Seems easy enough," Trip said jovially, nodding as he reached into a bowl beside him, taking a handful of peanuts, still in their shells. He put a few next to him on the table, and cracked one open between two of his fingers.
Malcolm smiled at him, the smile not quite reaching his eyes. "Actually, it gets difficult – as the game goes, it tends to get rather fast."
"Hold up then," Trip replied, putting his peanut down. "I'm gonna need a drink." He slid his chair back. "Anyone else want anything?"
"Tea, please," Malcolm replied, as Hoshi and Travis shook their heads.
"Don't eat all o' that," Trip said in warning, waving towards the bowl. "I brought those special." He gave the group the evil eye before he stood and walked to the drinks dispenser. Humming to himself, he got his drink, then Malcolm's, tapping his foot as he waited for the liquid to pour into the glasses. He grabbed one cup with each hand and turned back to the table, taking a quick sip from his own drink as rejoined the group. Sliding into his seat, he saw the bowl, now empty, prominently placed centre table. "All y'all are a bunch o'…" Trip said, exasperated. "I was fixin' to eat on that!"
"You'd need to be a bit quicker," Malcolm said snarkily.
"Well, I hadn't figured on y'all eatin' all the damn goobers."
"Goobers?" Malcolm asked.
"Goobers!" Trip exclaimed in frustration, rolling his eyes towards the ceiling. "Don't any o' y'all understand English?" He looked around the table, seeing their uncomprehending stares. "Peanuts, damn it," he spat, pointing at the now-empty bowl. He pursed his lips, and muttered, "Hardly good, anyway. Weren't boiled."
Malcolm's eyes opened wider. "Boiled?" he said in amazement.
"Boiled goobers. Don't y'all know nothin'?"
Malcolm smiled, then nodded at Hoshi. As Trip's eyes moved to her, she raised her hands from underneath the table, revealing them to be full of peanuts, and she grinned.
Trip rolled his eyes as Hoshi replaced the peanuts in the bowl. "Funny, ha-ha," he said flatly, sliding Malcolm's drink over to him.
Malcolm peered down into the cup. After a long, silent moment, he looked up. "What is this?"
Trip frowned slightly, puzzled. "What is what?"
"This drink."
"Tea," Trip replied. "That's what you wanted, right?"
Malcolm raised both eyebrows, his eyes wide. "Erm, I'm not sure." His eyes moved back to his drink, and he picked up the cup, taking a tentative sip. He blinked rapidly. "That's not tea." He put the glass down.
Trip leaned forward, his brow wrinkling. "Pass that on over here," he said.
Malcolm slid the glass back across the table, and Trip picked it up, taking a tentative sniff, then a sip. "Nah, that's tea all right." He smiled and slid the glass back to Malcolm. When Malcolm simply stared into the glass, Trip cocked his head to the side. "Something wrong?"
Malcolm nodded. "I suppose that I was expecting something a bit, well, hotter. And with milk."
Hoshi leaned forward. "Malcolm, where Trip's from, when you ask for 'tea', you're asking for iced tea with sugar. If you want it without, ask for 'unsweet tea'. If you want it hot, specify "hot tea", as the default is iced." She smiled and turned to Trip. "God forbid you want hot tea with milk. That gets strange looks."
Trip smiled at her, then nodded to the drink. "Go on, try it," he said to Malcolm. "You might like it."
Malcolm frowned. "I think not, Commander." Standing, he said, "May I get anything for anyone?"
Travis shook his head, but Hoshi nodded. "Yeah, I'll have something."
"Nomimono wa nani ga ii desuka?" Malcolm replied, a slight smile on his face.
Hoshi's eyes widened. "Nihongo ga wakarimas ka?"
"Eh, skoshi."
Hoshi smiled. "Um, I'll have some seltzer, thanks."
"Fizzy water, you know," she made a frothing motion with her fingers. "With bubbles."
Malcolm nodded, then moved away to get the drinks.
Trip turned to Hoshi. "What was all that?"
Hoshi shrugged. "Looks like Malcolm speaks Japanese."
Trip turned to watch Malcolm as he filled his cup. "What did he say?"
"He asked if I'd like something to drink. When I asked him about the Japanese, he said that he spoke a little."
Malcolm returned to the table, sliding Hoshi's drink in front of her as he sat with his own. "Dozo."
"Dom arigato, kozaiemas," replied Hoshi.
"You speak Japanese, Malcolm?" Trip asked.
Malcolm took a sip from his tea, nodding over its rim. Placing the cup on the table, he smiled. "Amongst other languages."
"Such as?"
"Erm," Malcolm paused, thinking. "French, Spanish, Polish, a smattering of Russian, and…"
"Polish?" Trip asked, surprised. "That's kind of random, isn't it?"
As Malcolm opened his mouth to reply, Travis interrupted. "Say something in Polish."
Malcolm blushed slightly, but he smiled. "Nie mowie po polsku."
Hoshi snickered, and Travis turned to her.
"What?" Travis said.
"He just said that he doesn't speak Polish." She turned to Malcolm. "Nie, nie. Mowe po polsku bardzo dobrze."
"Dziekuje," Malcolm said with a smile.
"All right, enough with the language club," Trip said. "Can we play the damn game now?" He popped a peanut into his mouth, crunching happily.
Before Trip could pick up his cards, Travis asked, "How do you know so many languages, Malcolm?"
Malcolm shrugged. "A hobby, really."
"Some hobby," Trip said, slightly awed.
"Yes, I once had a job that required a rather long commute. I studied various languages whilst…"
"You are kidding, right?" Travis asked around a mouthful of peanuts.
Malcolm shook his head as he fidgeted with his cards.
Trip laughed. "Ya know, other people would read trashy novels, or learn to knit or something."
A blush flashed across Malcolm's cheeks and he looked down at his hands.
"Don't worry, Malcolm," Hoshi said, leaning towards him. Dropping her voice to a near-whisper, she said, "They're just jealous."
Trip reached over and punched Malcolm lightly on the shoulder. "You bet we are," he said, smiling broadly. At Malcolm's answering grin, he winked. He turned his eyes to the table. "Hey, we're out of peanuts. I can't play cards without snacks." Standing, he asked, "Anyone want anything?" Then he turned to Hoshi. "And I can't say that in Japanese or whatever…although I might be able to kind of say it in bad Spanish, so long as you don't mind that half the words are swears." He smiled.
"I believe there were some chips there…" Malcolm said vaguely.
Trip nodded and turned towards the serving area. He looked at the offerings, puzzled. "Um, Malcolm?" he shot back over his shoulder. "There's no chips here."
Hoshi laughed. "He means French fries, Trip."
Trip nodded. "Oh, right," he said, reaching for the fries. "Want ketchup for those?"
"Mayonnaise, please," Malcolm replied.
Trip turned back to the table so quickly that a couple of fries flew out of the bowl, his brow furrowed. "Mayonnaise?"
Malcolm nodded. "Please."
Cringing, Trip turned back to the food. "Right. Of course. Whatever," he said softly as he gathered the offending item. Balancing the two bowls, he returned to the table, sliding the foods in front of Malcolm.
"Thank you," said Malcolm as he reached for a fry, dragging it through the mayonnaise before he dropped it into his mouth.
Trip watched in awe as Malcolm chewed happily.
After a moment, Malcolm noticed Trip staring at him. "Yes?"
"Um," Trip said uncertainly. "Is that good?" He nodded at the mayo, trying not to grimace.
"Quite," Malcolm replied. "Have you never tried it?"
"Never even seen anyone…" Trip let his voice drift away.
Malcolm cocked his head to the side. "Would you like some?"
Trip hesitated, staring first at Malcolm, then at the mayo. "Um, okay…why not?" he said. He reached forward and grasped a fry, then dipped it delicately into the mayonnaise. He pulled it up to his nose and sniffed it.
Hoshi snickered, and Trip flashed her a look. Then he turned back to Malcolm, smiled sickly, and popped the mayonnaise covered French fry into his mouth. "Urm, odd," he said around his mouthful. Swallowing, he added, "But not bad."
Malcolm nodded and dragged another chip through the mayonnaise. He held it up. "Anyone else?"
Both Hoshi and Travis shook their heads.
"Ever try it on pizza?" Malcolm said to Trip, waving the mayo-laden chip at the man.
Trip looked shocked. "What, mayonnaise?"
Malcolm nodded.
Trip looked a bit pale. "On pizza?"
Malcolm nodded again, biting into his fry.
"Dear God, no," Trip whispered.
"You think that's odd," Hoshi added. "Before I joined Enterprise, I used to have a traditional Japanese breakfast every morning," she said cheerily as Trip turned his shocked eyes to her. "A raw egg on top of rice, sometimes with curry." She smiled, the devil in her eyes. "We also ate old duck eggs, fermented by soaking them in vinegar and then burying them underground for ten months."
"Sort of like Kim-Chee," Travis added, nodding. He smiled at Hoshi and raised one eyebrow. "Ever had really fresh sushi?"
"What do you mean by 'fresh'?" Trip asked warily.
Travis raised his eyebrows. "Fresh," he said bluntly.
Trip gulped. "You mean, like…" he hesitated. "Still alive?"
Hoshi nodded in delight, leaning towards Trip. "You get to pick the fish from the tank, and then the chef cracks it on the head with the handle of his knife to stun it. He cuts it open and cleans out the guts, but the fish still moves. He pours saki down its throat, which activates the nerves that make the tail and head wiggle, so they keep moving even if the fish dies." She licked her lips. "The rice wine makes it very sweet."
Malcolm smiled, popping another fry into his mouth. "Ever eaten horse?"
Trip twisted his head to face Malcolm. "Horse, as in, um, horse?"
Malcolm nodded.
"How 'bout Prairie Oysters?" Travis asked, reaching over to steal one of Malcolm's fries.
"How about Eyeball Treats?" Hoshi added, laughing.
"Um, guys…" Trip tried to interrupt.
"I had those once at a party," Malcolm said, swirling a chip in his mayonnaise. "I think that one was a pickled cow's eye."
"Shark eyes are nicer," Hoshi said.
"Guys!" Trip said, more forcefully, and three sets of eyes turned to him. "Enough, already, please," he said softer, one hand on his stomach, the other rubbing the bridge of his nose. "I don't feel so good."
"What, do these foods offend?" Malcolm asked.
Travis chimed in. "Don't you eat grits?"
"Chitlins?" Hoshi added.
"Hog maws?" Malcolm said.
"Mountain oysters?" Travis said.
Trip looked from Travis, to Hoshi, to Malcolm, leaning his arms on the table as he gaped in disbelief. Then he groaned and put his head down on his arms.
Hoshi reached over and rubbed Trip's shoulder. She leaned down, bring her lips close to his ear. "April Fool's," she whispered.
Trip pulled his head up slightly, looking at her, his brow furrowed in puzzlement. Then Hoshi smiled, and he turned to Travis. Who smiled. So he turned to Malcolm. Who offered him a fry wordlessly, his mouth quirked in a half smile. Trip pushed himself upright. "So, that bit about the eyes…"
"Never had them," Malcolm replied.
"They do exist, though," Hoshi added brightly. "The shark ones are a bit of a delicacy."
Trip grimaced. "And the mayo?"
Malcolm pulled out a chip and swirled it in the last of his mayonnaise. He held it up, smiled, then popped it in his mouth. Chewing, he said, "Delicieux."

PS Home loading issues.[ Edited ]
I've been having troubles loading areas/ items and players. At times PS Home works fine but, here over the last 2 days i've spent a nice bit of cash on PS Home and i'm quite mad about the PS Home loading issues. Like if your in the navigation menu and then into the shops almost half that doesn't load. just does that stupid WWW thing in the top corner. Before anything is said about the internet connection tho, I play GTA 5 online, Netflix, NFSMW, and plenty more and never had issues with my internet and or loading. Until then i see no point in spending anything else on something that doesn't fully work. Also i've noticed that Sony doesn't have any ways to submit tickets for Home users even tho its still in Beta or so it says... or if they have a way to submit tickets i've not found it.
Hope Sony fixes PS Home soon.
P.S. Sry if this was posted in wrong location.
Re: PS Home loading issues.
Re: PS Home loading issues.
I think it might be quicker if we had an option of putting some of our spaces in an Storage area like we can with clothes and furniture.
But I believe that's wishful thinking.
Re: PS Home loading issues.
Yeah about that (www) thing thats so anoying tho is when its there for a long period of time and while its there most of the time you can't access you psp/tablet thing for when you do that it just sticks on that until all is loaded or freezes your PS3 system. -Tranny
Yeah that seems like a good idea, may help with some of the loading or having faster access to whatever.. -Kid

School Board Breaks Ground For New School in Williston
A school board is breaking ground on their future: Williston Middle and High School.
And family members of those who used to be buried on this property came to the groundbreaking ceremony to show their support.
The Levy County School Board was granted $34 million from the state legislature to build the school.
The school board bought 77 acres of land for the project but found a cemetery on the property.
They say they had to move the remains of a confederate soldier and his family in order to get approved for the grant.
One of the soldier's descendants came to the ceremony to have a wish granted.
"I also asked Superintendent Hastings if he would escort me back to the original gravesite and allow me to take a picture with my family history book and he was more than happy to do it," said descendant Deborah Limbaugh Sharp.
The land cost the school board $770,000.
According to the Levy County Property Appraiser, that's a little over $250,000 more than the property was worth.
The middle and high school is expected to open in fall of 2016.

Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer is advising one of the buyers and the target in one of the biggest and most complex mergers in Germany this year.
Freshfields corporate star Ralph Wollburg has been advising German consumer goods company Beiersdorf on its two-year mission to find a buyer for Allianz's 40 per cent stake in the company. Wollburg, a one-time candidate for the Freshfields senior partner job, is also advising one of the buyers, Beiersdorf's independent pension fund Troma.
Wollburg explains away the apparent conflict of interest. "In the context of the concept, this is not odd, since three board members of Beiersdorf are themselves board members of the Stiftung, which is a very peculiar old Hamburg trust," he said. "It's not comparable to a UK or US trust. It's a very complex legal animal."
Another German corporate lawyer commented: "I can see how this evolved. The management is shared between the two companies, but if you're very straight with the conflict rules this shouldn't happen."
Shearman & Sterling corporate partner Georg Thoma is advising long-term client Allianz on the sale of its e4.4bn (£3bn) stake. Troma is buying 3 per cent of Beiersdorf, and Beiersdorf is buying back 7.4 per cent. The state of Hamburg is buying 10.6 per cent and coffee retailer Tchibo is buying 19.6 per cent.
Hengeler Mueller partners Michael Hoffman-Becking and Georg Frowein are advising Tchibo. The firm has a longstanding relationship with Tchibo. It advised the company on its sale of Reemtsma Tobacco two years ago as well as advising it on the bitter family feud that has split Tchibo's shareholders, the Herz family, and delayed this transaction.
It is Tchibo's involvement that has caused an investigation by Germany's financial regulator BaFin. German takeover regulations launched in 2002 mean that any company or individual that owns more than 30 per cent of a company must launch a full offer.
Tchibo already owned 30 per cent of Beiersdorf before the takeover legislation came into effect and therefore does not need to make a full offer. However, BaFin is investigating whether Tchibo acted in concert with the Hamburg state and Troma. If it did, then a full takeover offer should be launched.
Lawyers on all sides claim that the parties acted independently and are hoping that the BaFin investigation is short, bringing to an end Allianz's epic quest for a buyer.

SAN DIEGO -- In another indictment against the state of the NL West, the last-place San Francisco Giants have just about played themselves back into postseason contention.
Rookie Kevin Frandsen hit his first homer, a two-run shot, and Pedro Feliz also connected to lead the Giants to an 8-4 win over the sputtering San Diego Padres on Thursday and a four-game sweep.
Remarkably, the Giants are only four games behind Cincinnati in the wild-card race, and that's after losing 16 of 19 coming into this series.
Reliever Kevin Correia thinks the Giants can get back into playoff contention, "If we can play like we did this series."
The Giants return home for a 10-game stretch that includes three against the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers, three against the second-place Diamondbacks and four versus wild-card leader Cincinnati.
"We're playing all the right teams coming up to get back in it," Correia said. "So, it's basically in our hands. If we can win some games, we can get right back in it."
San Francisco took a combined two-hitter into the ninth before Correia loaded the bases on two singles and a hit batsman. Jack Taschner then allowed rookie Josh Barfield's pinch-hit grand slam.
The Giants have beaten the Padres nine times in 10 games since July 1. San Diego has lost 8 of 10 overall, a slump that has dropped the defending NL West champion from the division lead to third place. The Padres (60-61) fell below .500 for the first time since May 6.
"There's no getting around it -- we were awful this series," Padres manager Bruce Bochy said. "I was, the club, all of us. We just had a horrible series. WE have to wash this off, regroup and get things going."
Frandsen hit a two-run shot in the ninth to finish with three hits. Feliz's homer, his 20th, also was in the ninth, giving him three RBI.
"For someone who doesn't hit too many, I'm just excited that it came at the time it did," Frandsen said. "This should not overshadow coming in here and getting a great road sweep."
Padres ace Jake Peavy (6-12) set a career-high with his 12th loss. The right-hander is having an uncharacteristically poor season after leading the majors with a 2.27 ERA in 2004 and the NL with 216 strikeouts last year. Peavy's only other double-digit loss season was 12-11 in 2003, his first full year in the big leagues.
"It's up to us to have short memories and forget this series," Peavy said.
Giants rookie Matt Cain (9-9) retired the first two Padres batters in the first, then walked the bases full. Ben Johnson, who homered twice in Wednesday night's 13-inning loss, worked the count full before striking out.
Cain threw 36 pitches in the first inning and was pulled after throwing his 104th, which Josh Bard lobbed into medium right field for a single with one out in the sixth. Manager Felipe Alou came out to get Cain, who is 2-0 in four starts against San Diego this year.
Cain allowed one hit, struck out eight and walked six in 5 1/3 innings.
Correia allowed three singles and three runs in 3 1/3 innings. He also hit a single.
The Padres struck out 12 times. They fanned 13 times Wednesday night.
Feliz homered to center with one out in the ninth and Frandsen to left with two outs, both off Scott Williamson.
Shea Hillenbrand drove in two runs for the Giants.
Kevin Frandsen opened the game with a double to center and scored on Hillenbrand's groundout.
With one out in the fourth, the Giants loaded the bases on Hillenbrand's walk, Moises Alou's double to left and Mark Sweeney's walk. Feliz singled to center to score Hillenbrand and Alou.
Hillenbrand and Finley had RBI singles in the eighth off Jon Adkins.
Peavy allowed three runs and three hits in seven innings, struck out eight and walked two.
- The Padres turned a 4-9 play to retire Shea Hillenbrand in the sixth. 2B Todd Walker tracked Hillenbrand's fly ball into right field and the ball bounced off his glove. He then tipped it with his glove toward RF Brian Giles, who tipped it with his bare hand before making the catch.
- Barry Bonds was going to get the day off even before he left Wednesday night's game with an inflamed left elbow.
