Cave Clove
Cave Clove
Cave Clove is a four-piece rock band based in Oakland, CA. Their latest self-titled album is slated for release on November 4, 2016 and marks the solidification of the band's five-year journey to find the true heart and soul of their sound.
In 2011, singer / guitarist, Katie Colver began collaborating with drummer Kendra Kilkuskie. The pair began performing songs from Colver's self-released folk album, Cabin Habits, and from there Cave Clove was born. As the band made the rounds in the local Americana scene, their sound evolved to incorporate elements of doo wop and classic rock into their already well-established folk roots. They took their new material to the studio and made the Bases for Pyramids EP (2013), produced and recorded by Oakland legend Greg Ashley of The Gris Gris. Shortly after, Cave Clove released two single / B-side combos: 2013's "Still Just As Free," an upbeat pop single recorded at New, Improved Recording with Carlos Arrendondo behind the board; and "Kyrie" (2014) recorded by Robert Shelton at Tiny Telephone and released on 7" vinyl by Royal Oakie Records. While all of their previous efforts were well received by press and fans alike, Colver and Kilkuskie were still pushing to solidify the Cave Clove sound. In 2015, the pair got their wish when they met guitarist Brent Curriden (Travis Hayes / Lords of Sealand) and bassist Alisa Saario. Curriden brings serious chops and a rock sensibility to the table, while Saario's masterful sense of rhythm melds seamlessly with Kilkuskie's drums.
In January of 2016, the quartet began pre-production for Cave Clove in their Oakland rehearsal studio along with co-producer Courtney Fairchild. Over the next two months they honed the band's sound and built the bedrock of what would become Cave Clove. In March, they began recording at Tiny Telephone Studios with Fairchild and co-producer Beau Sorenson (Death Cab for Cutie / Bob Mould / Thao & the Get Down Stay Down), who also engineered and mixed the album.
The result of their efforts is an eleven-song collection that debuts a reimagined Cave Clove sound. From the first note to the last, Colver's lyrics and distinctive vocals guide the listener on a journey through tracks that highlight the band's multifaceted influences. At its center, Cave Clove is a rock album with the band drawing on the many sub-genres and eras the define rock music; the album gains depth and dimension as undertones of classic Motown, 90s beach music, R&B, psychedelia, the Blues and classic pop come in and out of focus along the way.
Lead single, "Bid For Power," is a 70's R&B throwback with a twist. As the track begins it sounds like it would be at home on a Smoky Robinson or Al Green record. Saario and Kilkuskie lay the groundwork with a slinky infectious bass line and classic R&B drums while Colver and Curriden's guitars play off each other through the verse. By the time the listener settles in, the hook comes around and turns the song on it's head; the whole track opens up with a build into a simultaneous Wurlitzer and guitar hook and Colver's simple refrain of "fear is never justified" punctuated with girl group gang vocals. The band moves smoothly between the familiar and unexpected and dances between genres; a signature throughout the album.
Follow up single, "Sky," has a bright beat and jangly acoustic meets shoegaze electric guitars that all add up to a track that is at once reminiscent of The Sundays and The Boo Radleys. Standout, "When We Were" teases that it's a quiet ballad through the end of the first verse when the track explodes into a huge guitar driven refrain. "Your Freedom" and "Holy Mountain" both play with classic elements of psychedelia while "Becoming" and "Done Wrong" do the same, but with the Blues. The band even revisits their own history with a new recording of "Kyrie" that features a tight arrangement that highlights Curriden and Saario's takes on guitar and bass. Throughout the recording, Colver's rich voice ties the album together with confessional, mid-range notes and high, clear, impassioned questions about being present: love and loss, the uncertain mornings that follow wild nights, personal ambition, and the journey of the self. In the balance, the music is a dance of highs and lows, literally and figuratively, both comfortingly familiar and completely new.
With the release of Cave Clove the band begins another chapter in their journey. One that will inevitably see them reaching an even broader audience as they venture beyond the Bay Area for a string of U.S. tour dates in the late fall and early winter of 2016. With a band that has been constantly evolving from the start, one thing is certain, Cave Clove marks the beginning of a new era of musical exploration and will serve as the jumping off point for many great things to come.

Casper Smart Wishes This Butt Came With A Wiener (WINNER: Classiest Headline 2014)
If you've somehow missed it over the past few days, The Dirty has been posting messages allegedly between Jennifer Lopez's driver Casper Smart and transsexual model Sofie Vissa. And while the evidence looks pretty fucking damning – and not at all surprising – it seems way too good to be true. Except now People is reporting that JLo and Casper are only "technically" still together, so shit just got real:
A few months ago, Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart "hit a rough patch," a friend tells PEOPLE, but the singer has been trying to be supportive of him and work through their issues.
"Now," notes the friend, "all this stuff comes out about sexting. They're still together, technically, but no idea for how long."
"She is excited about where her life is right now," says the friend. "Her new single ("First Love") is on fire, and her album is about to drop, and she has movies, and hit TV shows (The Fosters) that she's producing. She couldn't be in better shape professionally. Personally, it's a bit more tricky.
How tricky? A second source says, "Put it this way, they were having problems before the sexting. You do the math."
Of course, this raises the question of who has been having sex with Jennifer Lopez's boring, old always-been-a-vagina this whole time because clearly it's not Casper Smart. And before everyone starts yelling Pitbull, I was just about to say that. You never let me finish! *runs away crying*

The Latest Miracle Beauty Product? Fotoshop By Adobé
This hilarious (and painfully accurate) video reimagines Photoshop as a beauty product that can erase acne, whiten teeth, make you skinny, and even change your race. Over a pulsing techno track, models pose and flip their hair while the narrator explains "Just one application of photoshop can give you results so dramatic they're almost unrealistic." Says creator Jesse Rosten: "I was watching TV one sleepless night and stumbled upon an infomercial for some beauty product. The commercial showed before and after portraits, that to my eye, looked like the same photo just photoshopped. I laughed to myself. Then I made this video."
The tagline sums it up: "This commercial isn't real, and neither are society's standards of beauty." Powerful stuff. [Fotoshop by Adobé]

A mug of soup warms you right up during the football game, and this tomato soup gets a boost of Mediterranean flavor and extra creaminess from a secret ingredient – spoiler – it's hummus!
By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by Sabra Dipping Co. LLC, and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I received coupons for free product used in testing this recipe. I was not compensated for my time.
Hey, it's mid October, which means there are two important questions on the minds of football fans everywhere. 1) How's your team doing? 2) What can we serve for the tailgate party?
I'll be totally honest, I'm usually more concerned about the food than the game – unless Notre Dame (my school) or Clemson is playing (my son's school, but since I'm on my 7th semester of college bills there, it's kind of become my school). Last week was especially HUGE in my house– ND vs Clemson. I couldn't decide which team to cheer for, and in the end I realized there really was no loser. Nothing like rooting for both teams! #EveryonesAWinner! Continue Reading..

Mr Rudd's alarmist scenario comes in a contribution to America's Foreign Policy magazine and contrasts with Prime Minister
The former prime minister's anxiety does not necessarily correspond with a consensus view about manageable tensions in the region.
"These are no ordinary times in East Asia,'' Mr Rudd writes, "with tensions rising from conflicting territorial claims in the East China and South China seas resembling a 21st century maritime redux of the Balkans a century ago – a tinderbox on water.''
It is clear Mr Rudd is seeking to garner attention for his thesis that unless more attention is paid to potential conflicts they risk slipping out of control.
Ms Gillard, on the other hand, discerned relatively positive trends in Asian security.
"The remarkable growth we see in Asia could not have happened without an environment of relative peace and stability,'' she said last month at the release of the latest national security strategy.
"Continuing and deepening that climate of relative peace and stability is at the forefront of Australia's national security agenda.''
Mr Rudd was less sanguine.
"Nationalist sentiment is surging across the region, reducing the domestic political space for less confrontational approaches,'' he writes. "Relations between China and Japan have fallen to their lowest ebb since diplomatic normalisation in 1972, significantly reducing bilateral trade and investment volumes and causing regional governments to monitor developments with growing alarm.
"Relations between China and Vietnam, and between China and the Philippines, have also deteriorated significantly, while regional institutions such as the Association of South East Asian Nations have become increasingly polarised. "In security terms, the region is more brittle than at any time since the fall of Saigon in 1975.''
Mr Rudd, in his foreign policy assessments of the potential for conflict in the region, tends towards the melodramatic. In a cable exposed by WikiLeaks, Mr Rudd, while still prime minister in 2009, told then US secretary of state Hillary Clinton that America needed to be prepared to use force against China "if everything goes wrong''. He left no doubt Australia would join the US in such an endeavour, if necessary.
The cable also revealed Mr Rudd had offered Australian special forces to fight inside Pakistan if an agreement could be struck with Islamabad.
In other remarks, he described himself as a "brutal realist'' on China, and observed that Chinese leaders were "sub-rational and deeply emotional'' about Taiwan.
Beijing was not overly impressed, nor is it likely Chinese policy analysts will find much merit in Mr Rudd's latest contribution.
He concludes his Foreign Policy contribution with a reference to Christopher Clark's book The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914, to underscore his point. "I believe a pan-Asian war is extremely unlikely. Nonetheless, for those who live in this region, facing escalating confrontations in the East China and South China seas, Europe is a cautionary tale very much worthy of reflection,'' he said
The Australian Financial Review

Good news Game of Thrones fans: season three will have several extended episodes! This is wonderful news since it seems to be the fastest hour on television and since the story is huge. George R.R. Martin's tomes could fill up almost any amount of minutes available. As it is, they are constrained to HBO's limits. One of the writers/producers, Dan Weiss, stated:
"One of the great liberties with HBO is we're not forced to come in at a specific time. We can't be under 50 minutes or over 60, but that gives us a lot of flexibility."
He and David Benioff mentioned that last season's episodes mostly clocked in at 52 minutes, and the season finale got an extra ten minutes. Benioff said this year has a lot of 56 or 57 minute episodes. I think that's more than fitting considering the huge amount of ground they have to cover for book three (A Storm of Swords).
It might not seem like a lot more time, but if you add up the minutes, it's almost an entire episode. Given that we only get ten episodes per season, that's pretty fantastic. They expect that the season three finale will have additional time, too.

Axel Erickson papers, 1962-1981
Size: .25 linear feet, 1 box
Acquisition: Donated to SSIRC 1981 from the estate of Axel F. Erickson
Access: The collection is open for research.
Processed by: Kristin Ryan in 1983
Control num.: SSIRC MSS P:28
The papers in this collection were found among the books from Erickson's estate, donated to the Swenson Center in 1981 by his daughter Mrs. C.W. Jackson of Los Angeles, CA.
Biographical Sketch
Axel F. Erickson was born on March 23, 1886, in Närkes Täby (Täby, Närke Province) Sweden. He immigrated to the United States in 1903 at the age of sixteen and arrived in New York City without money or resources. In March of the same year he went to Chicago and met his first wife, Julia. His first job in Chicago was with the Pennsylvania Railroad Shop, where he was paid 15.4 cents an hour. Two years later he obtained work with Craig Imperial Cabinet Company, where he was paid 14 cents an hour as an apprentice. Four years later he moved to Aurora, Illinois, where he worked for Lyon Metal Products as an apprentice tool and die maker. He worked his way up to machinist and supervisor with the company before forming his own company, All Steel Equipment Company, with two partners. Erickson remained at All Steel until 1946, when he retired at the age of 60. Erickson then went into the real estate business, founding Erickson Realtors, which he ran for 15 years. Erickson was the last surviving charter member of the Board of Directors of the Wayside Cross-Rescue Mission. Erickson died in January 1981. He died at 94.

Football fans are too scared to seek help with their relationships because of social stigmas, according to a Barnet charity.
Relate is placing adverts in bathrooms at Tottenham Hotspur's home ground White Hart Lane asking men if the big game is more important than their other half.
A survey published by the relationship charity showed 53 per cent of men believe there is a stigma attached to seeking expert advice.
A further 26 per cent of men said they would use Relate services if they knew they wouldn't be judged, while 19 per cent admitted that their relationship us not healthy.
Relate manager Hazel Hewett said: "Getting in touch with Relate can seem like a big step which is why we have developed this campaign to normalise accessing relationship support and reassure men that the support they get from us is always non-judgemental and confidential."

White House (CNSNews.com) – Days after the Treasury Department announced changes to the $700 billion bailout package for the country's ailing financial industry, President Bush nominated a federal prosecutor to serve in an oversight role for the program.
Neil Braofsky, an assistant U.S. attorney from the Southern District of New York, has been named inspector general to oversee the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP), passed by Congress and signed by the president, in response to the credit crisis.
If confirmed to the post by the Senate, Barofsky will be responsible for auditing and investigating how the money is allocated and reporting on the value of assets purchased by the government. Currently, Treasury Department Inspector General Eric Thorson oversees the program.
The Bush administration "created a special inspector general for the TARP program to monitor the functioning of it," White House Press Secretary Dana Perino announced Friday. "The president chose Neil Barofsky for this important position. He's a seasoned career federal prosecutor. He's known for his meticulous attention to detail, his sharp intellect, and we think he's an outstanding choice to fill this position."
Before working in the mortgage fraud unit in New York, Barofsky was a lead prosecutor in the Southern District of New York's securities fraud unit. He also prosecuted international narcotics traffickers.
On Wednesday, Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson announced that the bailout plan originally limited to buying bad assets from financial institutions would be broadened to support credit card debt, auto loans and student loans.
Paulson said this was a case of "changing a strategy or an approach if the facts change."
However, the changes have prompted criticism.
"When you see so many changes, you wonder if they really know what they're doing," said Sen. Charles Grassley, ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee. "The administration and congressional leadership were so confident when they brought this to the members. Changing direction like this may be completely legal, but it certainly raises questions as to if they have a handle on how bad the situation really is."
Grassley wrote a letter to Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, both architects of the plan, expressing those concerns.
Oversight is always a good thing, but a special inspector general wouldn't be necessary if the Treasury Department had a better handle on the program, said Frank Gamrat, an economist with the Allegheny Institute for Public Policy, a free-market think tank.
"Why $700 billion in the first place? There didn't seem to be a particular reason for that amount," Gamrat, a critic of the bailout, told CNSNews.com. "This plan was rushed to approval. Nobody knew who would get what. Now Paulson has told us he reserves the right to change the plan."

Situated Cellular Agents for Crowd Simulation and Visualization.
Complexity and Integrated Resources Management, Transactions of the 2nd Biennial Meeting of the International Environmental Modelling and Software Society, iEMSs 2004.
pp. 289-294.
The paper presents a Multi Agent Systems (MAS) approach to crowd modelling, based on the Situated Cellular Agents (SCA) model. This is a special class of Multilayered Multi Agent Situated System (MMASS), rooted on Cellular Automata, providing an explicit spatial representation and the definition of adjacency geometries. The model also defines a concept of autonomous agent, provided with an internal
architecture and individual state and behaviour, capable of different means of space–mediated interaction (synchronous,
between adjacent agents, and asynchronous among distant entities). Heterogenous entities may be modelled through the specification of different agent types, defining different behaviours and perceptive capabilities. After a brief description of the model, its application to simple crowd behaviours will be given (e.g. lane and group formation), and an application providing the integration of a bidimensional simulator based on this model and a 3D modelling application (3D Studio) will also be described. The adoption of this kind of system allows to specify, simulate and evaluate a design solution, but also to easily produce a realistic visualization of the simulation, in order to facilitate the communication with involved actors. In fact, while expert decision-makers often require only abstract and analytical results deriving from the simulation, other people involved in the decision–making process related to the design may be helped by other forms of graphical representation.

Tabibi 24/7 is the first healthcare company that provides 24-hour access to pediatric and family care in Cairo through two daytime clinics and around-the-clock home visits. With a focus on preventative care as well as treatment, Tabibi offers basic medical training courses and a daily health tip SMS service in addition to primary patient care. Egypt suffers from a healthcare landscape with little attention paid to preventative care and limited access to private physicians. Tabib fills a crucial gap in the Egyptian healthcare market with their reliable, well-staffed clinics and digitized medical records, which allow parents to build their children's medical records.
Motivated by their own frustration with the pediatric offerings in Cairo, the founders strive to deliver an unprecedented quality and continuity of care. The company offers four services: Personal Medical Care, Corporate Medical Care, Tabibi Academy, and a health focused SMS subscription service. Their diverse and complementary experience has allowed the entrepreneurs to develop a sophisticated infrastructure of clinics, a call center, drivers, an IT system, and an operations staff. Tabibi 24/7's doctors have seen upwards of 2,000 patients with over 50% using its services more than once. The clinics' appointment-only policy both minimizes patient waiting time and prevents doctors from being overstrained.

Christian Dior - J'adore (Mountain Goat) (2 views and 1 detail)
Taxidermied goat, concrete, chalk
170 x 105 x 144 cm (with base)
Christian Dior - J'Adore (Mountain Goat) and Jean Paul Gaultier – Classique (Arctic Fox) are two of a series of three works. "All three involved copying the form of figurative perfume bottles. I liked that they were a dual image: on one hand it's a bottle, on the other it's a figure. I saw the taxidermy and the concrete bottle as two figures melding into each other, and also as two objects overlapping. Taxidermy is as much of an object as a coffee cup or any other thing. But they were white and there's an idea of purity involved, and when you see the fur matted and embedded in concrete it's quite jarring."
Steve Bishop
Jean-Paul Gaultier - Classique (Arctic Fox)
Taxidermied fox, concrete, paint
147 x 53 x 47 cm (with base)
Bishop conceived these pieces as "containers for something." When joined the taxidermy and concrete unite a variety of opposites: soft and hard matter, real and stylised form, nature and construction. By setting one object into another, he literally created an "embodiment". This idea of a sculpture being both an object and a vessel relates to the history of idolatry, where a form is both a representation and manifestation of its subject.

It's Hard To Make A Stand
Fur coat, polyurethane, polythene, mirrored acrylic, wood
215 x 196 x 102 cm
"It's Hard To Make A Stand is a more recent work," says Bishop. "I was getting more into using found things and there's less of my hand in the making. The horse is made from foam, and the blue sheet is the wrapper it came in. I draped a fur coat over its head and it looks like a dog's head. I'm interested in this process of readymade assemblage because it's more powerful to let something operate by itself. It was really hard to make a base for it – that's where the title comes from. The stand has a double bevelled edge as a nod to public sculpture. It's like a defaced memorial, like when you see a statue of a soldier on a horse and someone's put a traffic cone on its head – what does that gesture stand for?"

How to get rich by the time you're 50: Guide 3 in the Young Money Series
Welcome to the third instalment in this week's Young Money Guides, in association with Investors Chronicle. Today, we're looking at investing your money for the longer-term, and whether the stock market is a potential path to riches…
Saving is important if you want to get rich, but there's a much faster way to grow your money – investing. Investing is an essential tool if you want to get rich by the time you're 50 because it gives your money more potential for growth.
If you're looking to grow your money, one of the major problems with saving is a huge and unstoppable beast that will eat into your money and devalue it over time. That beast is inflation. So what exactly does it do? Let's pretend you want to buy a pair of £100 headphones, but you are going to wait until this day next year. So you put £100 in a savings account with a 3 per cent interest rate and wait. What will happen to your cash? Well, because the current rate of consumer price index inflation is 2.8 per cent, that means that in a year's time, your money will be worth 2.8 per cent less than it is today. So, although the interest will turn your £100 into £103 after a year, in today's money it'll only be worth £100.80. That means you can still afford the headphones, but only just. This is pretty lame.
If you want to beat inflation, investing is a much more effective tool than saving – and we'll come on to why in a second. Now, forget the headphones we just talked about – because you've got much bigger fish to fry. Investing can help you reach your life goals faster than saving – and if you're in your 20s – the one that probably springs to mind first is buying a house. But if you're a first-time buyer in the UK, on average you'll need to stump up a £31,000 deposit (source:
Council for Mortgage Lenders). Most people don't manage to save this much until they're in their 30s – and many will never manage it. Let's look at how much faster investing £200 a month can grow your money than if you're saving the same amount in a cash individual savings account (Isa) over a 10-year period.
Investing in the stock market can help you achieve this much faster. As you can see from the chart on the next page, a £200 monthly investment into the FTSE All-Share over the last 10 years would be worth £36,680 now compared with the £26,400 you'd have if you'd invested it in a high street cash Isa. So the difference between saving and investing could mean years between you being stuck renting and affording your first home.
So, how is investing different to saving? It's actually quite simple. When you save money it sits in the bank and the bank give you a bit of interest, which makes it grow. But when you invest money, it is not just sitting in the bank. What you are doing instead is handing over your cash to buy assets that rise and fall in value over time. After you buy them, they will either lose or gain value, so when you decide to sell them in the future they will have either stayed the same or generated a profit or a loss.
There are many different types of assets you can buy and we will take a closer look at them soon. Collectively we refer to them as the stock market.

That is the only way it will work. The opt1 interface will have no gateway,
and will not go beyond the subnet. If you have other subnets on the
"intranet" you will need to add them with static routes. You may also want
to point your DNS forwarder to a DNS on the intranet if you need it.

Arrector Pili Muscles
Did you know you have muscles in your skin?
The arrector pili are a tiny muscle band connecting each hair follicle to the skin's dermis. When they contract they make your hair stand up on end…they are the goose bump muscles. The arrector pili are referred to as smooth muscle, meaning that you cannot voluntarily contract them. In other words, you cannot give yourself goose bumps.
These muscles are controlled by your sympathetic nervous system, and play a role in the "fight or flight" syndrome. Back when we were hairy hunter gatherers, living among the elements, these tiny muscles aided in keeping us warm as well. They helped our hair to stand perpendicular to our skin's surface, keeping us more insulated. It also helps animals puff up their fur, making them appear larger in size.
So what, you may be asking, does this have to do with skin care? Plenty.
You can strengthen this muscle group through ultrasound stimulation. Strengthening these muscles helps to firm and tighten loose, sagging skin, giving you a mini "lifting" effect. Stimulating the arrector pili muscles is a great addition to microcurrent or massage for strengthening facial muscles as well as peptide treatments for skin damage from muscle contractions.

The Democratic governor of Maryland says the Republicans will do anything to thwart President Obama -- and acknowledges his party has problems of its own.
Our pal Chuck Raasch, a columnist with Gannett's Washington Bureau, sends us this dispatch:
Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley told reporters this morning that he believed Republicans in Congress will do anything to deny President Obama "victories" on job creation, and he conceded that Democrats were also still forming a narrative of why Obama should be re-elected.
O'Malley, president of the Democratic Governor's Association, met with national reporters at a breakfast sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor. He is on pundits' short list as possible presidential contenders in 2016, whether Obama is re-elected or not
The president's job-approval rating has fallen into the low 40s, raising questions about whether he can be re-elected during the worst economy since the Great Depression.
"The way the president gets re-elected, frankly, is to do a better job than the other guys in explaining to us in a forthcoming and honest way the changes that are happening in our economy and the choices that we need to make as a people in order to give our children a better shot at succeeding in this transformative time, rather than becoming victims of it," O'Malley said. "And that is the great anxiety in the republic today."
He added that "we need a new narrative here that acknowledges our problems but appeals to our core, shared values" of making the country better for succeeding generations, but said that "too often, both (political) parties genuflect greed and peddle myths that are not good for the health of the republic."
O'Malley said that "both parties have a challenge in figuring this out. I think the president is much further along… than any of the (presidential) candidates I have seen so far in the Republican Party. They are pretty much sticking with the sort of trickle-down, George Bush model."
Republicans, he said, "are directly responsible for a great deal of damage to our country, because of their policies, and they can't run away from that."
O'Malley said he believes a "concerted group" of congressional Republicans "have decided that it is not in their party's political interest at having the president succeed at creating any jobs, and I believe therefore they will do their very best to deny him any victories that could lead to job creation or a speedier recovery."

tag:dreamwidth.org,2011-06-11:913346 Shakin' the Family Tree A never ending journey... Dee Burris Blakley 2013-07-25T00:53:53Z tag:dreamwidth.org,2011-06-11:913346:138768 Arrrggghhhhh!!!!!!! 2013-07-25T00:53:16Z 2013-07-25T00:53:53Z public 5 The lady at the Old Fort Genealogical Society meant well.

I know she did.

And she gave such prompt attention to my email inquiry.

But my 3rd great grandmother, Elizabeth Harris Chapin, did not die as a result of a fall down some stairs.

That was Mrs. E J Chapin who fell down the stairs.

Sad Accident
Last evening Mrs. E J Chapin called upon the family of J C Moore of the Fort Scott saw mill, to administer to the care of Mrs. Moore, who is quite sick, when by some unfortunate accident, Mrs. Chapin fell down the stairway in Mrs. Moore's residence, breaking her shoulder blade and dislocating her shoulder. The unfortunate lady was instantly cared for by those in the house. Dr. Aikman was summoned and rendered assistance. The shock to the lady's nerves was severe, but all the skill that medical aid could render was immediately applied. Source: The Fort Scott Daily Monitor, Wednesday, 7 Sep 1887, page 5, column 4.

Mrs. E J Chapin was Mrs. Elmer Judson Chapin, nee Hannah Elizabeth McIntosh.

And she didn't die. Not immediately. Or even a month later.

Hannah Elizabeth McIntosh Chapin died on 13 Nov 1925, and was buried beside her husband in Maple Grove Cemetery, Fort Scott, Bourbon Co., KS.

Elmer Judson Chapin and my 3rd great grandfather, Nathaniel Foster Chapin, were 6th cousins, once removed.
For the time being, I have the Chapin family lore about how Granny died - from those injuries in the buggy accident when my great grandmother was just an infant.

But now there's this thing that really puzzles me. Why did it take so long to bury her? Her funeral was the day after her death on 4 Oct 1887. Yet the records of Evergreen Cemetery in Fort Scott say she was not interred there until 30 Oct 1887.

Where was she for 25 days?

Died
At 2 o'clock p.m., yesterday, at her home in East Fort Scott, 321 Mulberry street, Mrs. E H Chapin, in the fifty-sixth year of her age. The deceased was born in Bradford county, Pennsylvania, November 20, 1831, married N F Chapin in 1852, and enjoyed the full fruition of life for the past thirty-five years. She was the mother of ten children, seven sons and three daughters, nine of which and the father are now at home mourning her loss. The funeral will take place today at 2 o'clock p.m. All friends of the family are invited to attend. Source: The Fort Scott Daily Monitor, Wednesday, 5 Oct 1887, page 3, column 5.

From: Kathy Johnston <>
Subject: Re: [DNA] WTY Update slides
Date: Wed, 03 Nov 2010 10:55:00 -0400
Thomas Krahn really does need to publish his material. There are plenty of genealogists who could add information to this discovery. When he first talked about the X to Y transfer, he said: "The C allele at rs12859783 is coming from a different X-haploblock than the G observed in the ChrX HUGO sequence." He was talking about the L88 region. That was a clue to me that there could be a phased pattern that we should be looking for that is different from HUGO. Whit Athey taught us some phasing techniques at the FTDNA conference for those who don't know what I am talking about. Maybe now people will also understand what I was talking about several months ago. The X chromosome has very ancient blocks that seem to hold together over thousands of years and there are only rare crossovers in some of the regions. So, it is easy to phase these.
Neither 23andMe nor FTDNA shows the results at rs12859783. The question I was asking way back then was, can we predict our own SNPs at rs12859783 (position 7133305 at HapMap) based on our own phased pattern? Yes I think we can. If so, then we know which "haplogroup" on the X chromosome carried the SNP that got passed from the X to the Y.
By letting us download raw data, I really like the way these testing companies have permitted us mere mortals to play with the data and make some of the discoveries ourselves. We can collect contributions from FTDNA and 23andMe data then get redacted SNPs from HapMap to add to the predicted sequences.
When Thomas found the X to Y SNP in Bonnie Shrack's father, I remember I was playing around with HapMap and 23andMe X raw data over a year ago, phasing different haplotypes and there were three phased haplotypes on the X chromosome that emerged in the mostly European populations for this tiny haploblock. There was only one of these three haplotypes (which I would call a haplogroup, but I have no academic authority to do so) that could have made that crossover or maybe I should call it a contribution. I am learning that not all exchanges are crossovers. I started adding Family Tree DNA data to the chart as soon as it became available. So I assume Bonnie's father would have been heterozygous in the L88 Region because one SNP was on the Y and the other was on the X but may have looked like it was a Y SNP.
Anyway, the data that a group of us genealogists collected is shown here in this Google Doc sheet if anybody is interested in adding to it. Its kind of a free-for-all approach to scientific discovery. I hope this web site does not suddenly self destruct since too many cooks tend to spoil the broth.
I have not kept it updated (last update in April) but the darker blue is the predicted haplotype that probably transfered the X to the Y chromosome based on HapMap combined with 23andMe and FTDNA data. If you phase a larger region from HapMap, you will see that the two blue groups are more closely related to each other on the (still to be constructed) X phylogenetic tree than the red group.
I called the Y SNP "transgametic" and I hope that is the appropriate terminology. I hope a geneticist will critique the methodology and tell me if I am on the right track here. Are these conclusions reasonable? In addition, why is there a transfer from one end of the X to the middle of the Y? Is that to be expected? I hope we got the correct SNP ID numbers here.

A speaker series this month at the University of North Georgia's Gainesville campus will highlight environmental and social issues and how they are related.
As scientists learn more about the environment and how human behavior affects it, Dr. John O'Sullivan, professor of sociology and environmental studies at UNG, said today's students must lead in that arena.
"This generation of students is in the midst of several revolutions, and one of them is the environmental movement," O'Sullivan said. "With increasing speed we are learning about the intricacies of how the world's ecosystems are connected and functioning, and the relationships between human society and the environment are also becoming clear. Today's students realize that biology and chemistry are connected to economics and politics."
The Institute for Environmental Spatial Analysis is putting on the series, and Tom Torres, a senior in UNG's Applied Environmental Spatial Analysis program, is organizing it.
"So often, the mindset is that policy change and lobbying is the only way to effect social change, but that discounts a great deal of the grass-roots work being done in our communities," Torres said. "The speakers will be bringing to the forefront issues such as immigration reform, veteran health, food justice, and alternative modes of economy. These issues can be difficult to discuss, so I'm happy to see them represented in our work."
The series starts today and features different speakers each week.
Social Sustainability in North Georgia, presented by Kevin Arita and Kat Stratton: Noon today, Continuing Education and Performing Arts Building, 3820 Mundy Mill Road, Oakwood.
Dig Your Roots! Local Food in North Georgia, presented by Ben Dockins and Jonathan Winskie: Noon Monday, Continuing Education and Performing Arts Building.
Film screening of "The Island President:" 6 p.m. April 17, Martha T. Nesbitt Academic Building (3110-AB).
Climate Change in the 21st Century: A Clear and Present Danger, presented by Dr. Jamie Mitchem of UNG: Noon April 22, Continuing Education and Performing Arts Building.
A gRRReen Team Environmental Program also will be presented on the Dahlonega campus of the university 5-9 p.m. April 22 at the Hoag Student Center Auditorium 342, 82 College Circle, Dahlonega.
North Georgia Technical College names vice president for academic affairs
Kathie Ivester, current dean for academic affairs, has been named vice president of that department at North Georgia Technical College in Clarkesville.
Ivester has also served as an instructor, program director and Technical College System of Georgia curriculum program specialist. She has been dean since 2008, overseeing instructional programs.
She has played a role in a number of initiatives at the college, such as Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges accreditation and Gov. Nathan Deal's Complete College Georgia.
Ivester also has experience in management consulting and as a laboratory manager/clinical practice manager for Habersham Internal Medicine and quality assurance laboratory director/blood bank supervisor at Habersham County Medical Center. She taught as an adjunct instructor while working with health care providers.
Ivester has a master's of public administration, a bachelor's in business administration, and an associate of applied science in medical technology from Truett-McConnell College.

Australia's forest industry has renewed its call for more local pulp and paper manufacturing plants after another massive trade deficit in forest products in 2002-03.
Australia had a trade deficit of $1.8 billion in forest and wood products last financial year, the latest figures from the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics show.
Imports of wood and forest products for the period were valued at $3.97 billion while exports totalled $2.12 billion, ABARE said. Paper and paperboard product imports were valued at $2 billion.
Printing and writing paper made up $1.3 billion of the import figure. ABARE said imports of printing and writing paper had grown at 5 per cent a year in the past decade.
Woodchip exports, valued at $808 million, made up about 40 per cent of total exports. Of this figure, $670 million were hardwood woodchips, from which high-quality writing paper is made.
The 2002-03 woodchip export total was 16 per cent higher than in 2001-02.
The chief executive of the National Association of Forest Industries, Kate Carnell, said the latest figures showed an increase in the value of woodchip exports to Japan and the Asia-Pacific.
These woodchips were processed in Japan and returned to Australia as paper. "All would agree that we need to value-add in Australia," she said. "These figures show we need more pulp and paper manufacturing here."
Ms Carnell said that for this to happen the Federal and State Governments needed to work together. The abandonment of the proposed paper mill at Wesley Vale in Tasmania a decade ago, after investors had spent $20 million, was a watershed.
"That decision produced a huge shudder down the spine of investors," she said.

Recently, there has been chatter that the Boston Red Sox are talking to free-agent Adam LaRoche. LaRoche is still out there, unsigned, and the Red Sox might yet choose to end their courtship of Mike Napoli. For much of the offseason, it has seemed inevitable that LaRoche would re-up with the Washington Nationals, probably for a two-year contract with a third-year option. Such a deal would free up the Nationals to trade Michael Morse. If LaRoche goes away, Morse might just replace him at first base. Therefore, the Nationals' offseason isn't yet entirely settled. But here's the kicker: No matter what happens at first, the Nationals still project to be the best team in baseball.
Projected 2013 standings are nothing but projected 2013 standings, they're educated guesses. And, as evidenced by the fact that LaRoche (among other big names) is still unsigned, there are still some key moves to be made. That said, the Nats won 98 games last year, which was the most in baseball, despite the fact they voluntarily stopped using their best pitcher with a month left in the season. They were severely criticized for shutting down Stephen Strasburg, but it's time for that decision to pay off.

Imagine having this endearing miniature gazebo for your very own. It makes a
wonderful center placement for a table, and is perfect for decorating for a
Standing at one foot tall, it's just the size for the wood craft dolls pictured on my Girl Doll page as well.
You can see that some additional, different design miniature dollhouse furniture adorns this pleasant piece.
I've been creating and improving this wood craft gazebo for many years, and
it has never failed to draw favorable comment. I've sold many, and given
others away as gifts. It's one of my most sought after crafts.
While making the dollhouse scale gazebo is not complicated, it does require a
number of steps -- too many to easily illustrate on a webpage.
You can purchase this instruction set for the gazebo and the
other crafts in a fine 8.5 x 11 inch spiral-bound booklet. Because the
book is spiral bound, it can be laid out flat on any instructional page,
making it ideal for the crafter.

Insiders bought and sold $224 million of stock in the basic materials sector last week, accounting for 13.4% of the total of $1.70 billion worth of stocks traded (including $1.52 billion sold and $0.18 billion bought) via almost 1,800 separate insider transactions last week. We culled through those 1,800 or so insider buys and sells in over 850 different companies (based on last week's SEC Forms 3, 4, and 5 filings), as part of our weekly coverage of insider trades, and present here the most notable trades in the basic materials sector last week:
Biofuel Energy Corp. (NASDAQ:BIOF): BIOF is a holding company engaged in the production and sale of ethanol and distillers grain in NE and MN. Insiders currently hold 23.5 million shares or 22.4% of outstanding shares. Last week, Thomas Edelman, 10% owner of BIOF, sold 1.28 million shares (regular sell), ending the week with 10.05 million shares. Mr. Edelman is well known in the energy field; he is the founder of Patina Oil & Gas Corp before its merger with Noble Energy Inc. (NYSE:NBL), a co-founder of Snyder Oil Corp., and a former Chairman of Range Resources Corp. (NYSE:RRC). Insiders at BIOF have recently been aggressively selling company shares, as reported by us earlier in our coverage of insider trades in the basic materials sector two and three weeks ago. This is significant given that BIOF shares have surged recently, along with the rest of the ethanol group, up eight-fold nadir-to-peak, and could be interpreted as a sign that insiders may not be as sanguine about the company at current prices.
Transatlantic Petroleum (NYSEMKT:TAT): TAT is engaged in crude oil and natural gas exploration and production in Turkey, Morocco, Bulgaria and Romania. Last week, CEO N. Malone Mitchell III bought 110,000 shares, increasing his purchase just in November to 610,093 shares, so that he ended the week with 1.9 million shares. TAT shares have been weak this year, and the stock currently trades near its all-time lows, so the persistent buying by its CEO is a strong sign of confidence in his outlook for the company.
Cameron Intl Corp. (NYSE:CAM): CAM manufactures oil and gas pressure control and separation equipment for production in onshore, offshore and subsea applications. Insiders currently hold 3.0 million or 1.2% of outstanding shares. During the last week, three insiders (two Directors and a Sr. VP) sold a total of 231,840 shares (all regular sells) for $12.5 million. This is significant given its size, the number of insiders selling, and as it represents a strong pick-up given that insiders overall sold only an additional 161,699 shares in the remaining twelve weeks of the past three months (buying none).
Forest Oil Corp. (NYSE:FST): FST is engaged in the exploration and production of oil and natural gas primarily in North America. Insiders currently hold 1.5 million shares or 1.3% of outstanding shares. During the past week, CEO Craig Clark exercised options and sold the resulting 112,936 shares (regular sell) for $1.7 million. This is significant in that it is the first insider sale since March, and represents a significant pick-up given that insiders sold only an additional 173,800 shares in the prior 51 weeks of the year (buying 5,000 shares).
Quicksilver Resources (NYSE:KWK): KWK is engaged in the exploration and production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids in TX, CO, WY, MT, Alberta and British Columbia. It focuses primarily on unconventional reservoirs in fractured shales, coal beds, and tight sands. Insiders currently hold 60.9 million shares or 35.0% of outstanding shares. During the past week, SVP of US Operations Stan Page exercised options and sold the resulting 68,830 shares (regular sell) for $0.6 million. This is significant in that it represents a pick-up given that insiders sold only an additional 12,542 shares in the past year (buying none). KWK recently completed a public offering of over 8 million shares (including over-allotments) of BreitBurn Energy Partners LP (BBEP).
Ensco Plc (NYSE:ESV): ESV is a U.K. based worldwide provider of offshore contract drilling services to the oil and gas industry. Insiders currently hold 2.4 million or 1.1% of outstanding shares. During the last week, Director Francis Kalman exercise options and sold 19,272 shares (regular sell) for $1.0 million, ending the week with 9,970 shares. This is significant due to its size, in that the shares represent a significant portion of Mr. Kalman's holdings in the company, and given that insiders sold only a total of 40,640 shares over the past year (buying none).
Douglas Lake Minerals Inc. (OTC:DLKM): DLKM, based in Vancouver, Canada, engages in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties, including the Handeni and Mkuvia Alluvial gold projects in Tanzania. Insiders currently hold 19.9% of outstanding shares. During the last week, Chairman and 10% owner Reginald Mengi bought a new 15.0 million share position in the company for $6.0 million, on behalf of Handeni Resources Ltd.

Both Cardinals are batting .287 on the season, just making the FSL top 20 in that categoty. Rodriguez and Piscotty have 18 and 17 extra-base hits respectively, with Rodriguez hitting more doubles (15 to 9) and Piscotty more home runs (7 to 2).
Not having been a stolen base threat in the past, Rodriguez changed that this season, going 11-for-12 in steal attempts. Piscotty has a higher OPS (.815 to .786) and has driven in more runs (21 to 16).
Drafted in the 17th round in 2009 from Puerto Rico, Rodriguez, 23, is in his second season at Palm Beach. The 22-year-old Piscotty joined Palm Beach this season after being selected in the first round of the 2012 draft from Stanford and debuting in the Midwest League.
In 2012, the Cardinals had three members of the mid-season All-Star Team. All are now at Double-A Springfield – pitcher Anthony Ferrara, outfielder Mike O'Neill and second baseman Starlin Rodriguez. Seth Maness, now in St. Louis, was also named to the team but did not participate because of his promotion to Springfield. O'Neill and Rodriguez repeated on the 2012 FSL post-season all-star squad.
Full rosters for the FSL North and South Division All-Star Teams can be viewed at MiLB.com.

Hi all, (This is probably a question for Jay, though...) I don't update the XML-RPC library as often as I should. Perhaps if I was more diligent, it would be easier to keep up on how the internals have changed. On the server side, I apparently no longer need "response.ss" from the "private" portion of the web-server. After getting rid of this require from "server-core.ss" in the library, things run, but I get the following error from within the web-server: ../apps/plt413/collects/web-server/dispatchers/dispatch-files.ss:27:18: string-ref: expects type <non-negative exact integer> as 2nd argument, given: -1; other arguments were: "" I haven't really dug into things since the insta and dispatch libraries were rolled into the web-server collection itself. I'm not sure what I should be doing in the XML-RPC library to avoid this error. What follows are my server and client code. I'm wondering: do I need a custom dispatcher, or should I be able to run the XML-RPC library as a simple servlet, given that it provides "interface-version", "manager", "timeout", and "start"? Either way, I thought asking a question would be the quicker route to getting things rolling again, as there are enough new things that I'm not quite sure where best to start. Cheers, Matt [BEGIN SERVER] #lang scheme (require (planet schematics/xmlrpc:4:0/xmlrpc-module-servlet) web-server/servlet web-server/servlet-env) (define (add x y) (+ x y)) (add-handler 'math.add add) (serve/servlet start #:port 9000 #:servlet-path "/RPC" #:launch-browser? false ) [END SERVER] [BEGIN CLIENT] #lang scheme (require (planet schematics/xmlrpc:4:0/xmlrpc)) (define local (xmlrpc-server "localhost" 9000 "/RPC")) (define remote-add (local 'math.add)) (remote-add 3 5) [END CLIENT]

When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no — and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem. So it's very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she's safe and sound.

Michael Buble Robbed On Wedding Day
Thieves of any kind just suck – no matter how small or inexpensive the item they take is. But these thieves I'm about to write about are the lowest of the low, because they robbed a guy's house while he was getting married. The guy's house they robbed belonged to Michael Buble and his new wife Luisana Lopilato, who were not home at the time of the burglary because they were at their wedding.
According to multiple reports, Michael's home in Buenos Aires, Argentina was burglarized on Saturday as he and his wife Luisana Lopilato were enjoying a fabulous wedding reception with 300 guests. RadarOnline.com has photos of Michael and Luisana, dressed in street clothes and looking gloomy, surveying the scene on Sunday.
Luisana told local TV outlets,
I will not let this ruin the happiest day of my life."
No word on what was stolen.
They both have an optimistic outlook in spite of being robbed. Now these guys that did this just suck.

XP Mode - I have no tools menu
Here are all the Virtual XP experts, great. I have an older Sony DV camera that does not operate with the USB connection in Win7. The firewire works and I can make copies from my camera or even copy video directly live in Win7. Skype does not recognise the camera USB connection in Win7 but it does in XP mode. Yes I have the latest driver from Sony but the latest is from a few years ago and there is no Win7 driver for my camera. So great, I can use the USB connection in XP Mode but XP is stuck in 16 bit resolution that makes senders video in Skype slow and choppy. When I use Skype in Win7 senders are smooth and HD 720p but again, I can't send video. I have seen posts that claim XP Mode can increase resolution to 24 bit or even 32 bit resolution by clicking tools and then turning off integration devices. I have no tools menu, (I only have action, USB, ctl+alt+del) whats up with that?
