Wire Rounder Set
This set includes a wood top pin vise and two cup burs. One bur has an inside diameter of 1.2mm and the other is 1.8mm. These cup burs are used for rounding the ends of various sizes of wire. The pin vise can also be used for other tasks, more easily, because of the round comfortable head.
I use this tool to round the ends of handmade earwires.....very quick, very useful :) There is one collet under the handle and one under the tip.

So glad to have found this little cup bur, it makes finishing wire-ends a doddle!

You'd think with all the vitriol from the right that Obama was the second coming of Satan, the least popular president in all of U.S. history, an usurper, not the recipient of two landslide mandates from the American people.
Instead, we find out that more Americans self-identify today as Democrats than as Republicans.
And not only that, but a president who is, despite all these attacks, is increasingly popular. Gallup reports that Obama's current approval rating is 56 percent – or seven points higher than "the average of his monthly approval ratings (49%) for the first 48 months of his administration, between January 2009 and December 2012."
Read that again. Higher than the first 48 months of his administration.
Yet the Republicans insist it is they, not Obama, who won a mandate from the American people in 2013. Obama is more popular than ever, and they are more popular than – meth labs and perpetual petty criminal Lindsey Lohan.
And consider this: "Five of the seven U.S. presidents re-elected since World War II had lower average job approval ratings in their second than in their first term."
But President Obama is more popular now than he was from 2009 to 2012.
Only two presidents since World War II – out of the seven that have had second terms – have had higher approval ratings their second term. Those presidents would be Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton.
President Obama is More Popular Now than During His First Term

Don't replace, refinish!
Fine outdoor furniture can be a lifetime investment. It is amazing what a new coat of paint, new straps, slings, and/or cushions will do for a set! Your beloved, well-used furniture can look like new, usually for much less than what new would cost. Here are a some figures you can use to decide if you want to refurbish or buy new:
• Painting a chair frame: approximately $100
• New straps for a chair: approximately $80 labor and material
• New sling for a chair: approximately $70
• New Cushion for a chair, seat and back: approximately $125
Is it cheap to refurbish furniture? Not necessarily. Is it less expensive to refurbish than to buy new? The answer is almost always a resounding, yes! A few things to consider. Have you grown tired of your furniture's style? Is your furniture as comfortable as the newest styles? Do the pieces you have still fit your lifestyle? If you answer yes to all of these questions, consider refurbishing. If you answer no to only one, consider buying new.
Expect the cost of furniture refurbishing to be in the moderate to high range.

From a football views, You need to know if here is your own guy or not. Has he knew under Favre? Can he head into? Can he victory? If you are not, At least you know your quarterback into the future isn't on the roster. Better to recognise now instead of wasting valuable game time reps next pre season trying to figure it out..

At right is a little bit about our philosophy and our work. Below are our names and email addresses.
If you're interested in our organization, would like to help us out in some way, want to let us know about an upcoming event, or have some other comment or question, please email us at: arc at amherst dot edu. Or you can send email to any one of us personally, just attach "@amherst.edu" to the end of the parenthesized usernames below.
What We Do
The Amherst Recording Council was founded by Nick Doty in the Spring of 2004 to record lectures and events on the Amherst College campus. We do this so that the College might have a record of the various and interesting goings on -- and so that we might remember as an intellectual community including students, professors, and alumni, the richness and diversity of opinion, polemic, reflection and creativity that we are so fortunate to possess.
In less grandiose terms, we are passionate about recording things. Various academic departments, student organizations and College offices pay or otherwise convince a wide range of speakers to come to the campus and give lectures on their various specialties. But we don't just record visiting lecturers, as you can see from a complete list of our recordings on this website. For example, we make a point of recording the fortnightly Coffeehouse hosted at Marsh House which showcases the wide range of talents, humour, music and poetry which characterizes our student body.
Those of us who make a point of attending these events often find them intriguing, and an extremely valuable part of our experience and interaction with the College community. Unfortunately we are occasionally let down by busy times of the year (particularly April) when the calendar is packed. It quite often becomes the case that there are two lectures that we feel strongly about taking place at the same time, or we simply find ourselves swamped by work.
The ARC creates an online audio archive that makes the events you may have missed, or been too busy to attend, available to you at any time. It also gives prospective students and alumni a glimpse of the ongoing tradition and vitality of the liberal arts at Amherst College.
"The power to record sound was one of three essential powers of the gods in ancient societies, along with that of making war and causing famine. According to a Gaelic myth, it was precisely by opposing these three powers that King Leevellyn won legitimacy. Recording has always been a means of social control, a stake in politics, regardless of the available technologies. Stockpiling memory, retaining history or time, distributing speech, and manipulating information has always been an attribute of civil and priestly power, beginning with the Tables of the Law."
Technically What We Do
At the moment we only record audio -- there might be some advantages in having video records of all of these events, but we deem that these advantages, if they do exist, are small. And we have found that there is something to audio that in many cases seems to distill a lecture down to its very core, and can perhaps make a better record than a video of the same occasion might.
We record using portable DAT or CD recorders. DAT stands for Digital Audio Tape and has generally been considered the highest quality audio recording one can make with a portable device. After the event is finished, the equipment (including the tape) is returned to the Media Center and then the tape is transferred to CD using a DAT recorder plugged into one of the Media Center's Audio CD recorders. CDs are easier to work with. Once transfered to a computer, we use the resulting AIFF or MP3 file for basic editing and distribution to our website.
This process can be improved and we will attempt to do so in the coming year. Theoretically we can now record from an XLR mic directly into a laptop. This makes the process a lot easier and reduces the number of transfers in which there can be a loss of quality. It would also mean that this website could be much more easily and more quickly updated after events. If you have technical know-how of this sort and are interested please let us know.

Ted Simons: Good evening. Welcome to "Arizona Horizon." I'm Ted Simons. The environmental fund for Arizona is a group that helps employers help the environment through workplace giving. EFAZ also gives educational tours, connects organizations with sustainability resources and coordinates volunteer opportunities. As part of "Arizona Horizon"' continuing covering of sustainability issues we learn more from Lane Seaton, executive director of the environmental fund for Arizona. Good to have you here.
Lane Seaton: thanks for having me.
Ted Simons: Is that a good enough definition? What does EFAZ really do?
Lane Seaton: First of all we're a statewide alliance of all environmental and conservation organizations. We have 28 across the state, from Flagstaff to Tucson. We formed about 11 years ago to really provide a Green choice to workplace giving across Arizona. We sort of work similarly to the United Way that provides opportunities for employees to give to charitable organizations usually during the fall. But at that time Arizona didn't have different kind of choices. Or environmental choices. That was really the reason why EFAZ formed. We collectively raise awareness, engagement and additional financial support for all these amazing environmental groups.
Ted Simons: In terms of raising awareness for these ecological causes, what kind of causes we talking about here?
Lane Seaton: Our member groups do a lot of different things. We have a lot of wildlife groups. We have four audubon groups. Southwest wildlife, wild at heart, those are really popular groups. Those are our wildlife groups. We have a lot of land trust, land focus groups. Desert hot house land trust, then we have native plants you'll be speaking about later today. The desert botanical garden, arboretum at Flagstaff. Then we have some different kind of groups, Sonoran institute, western resources advocates that focuses on policy, energy, transportation. We have Arizona recycling coalition that's part of city of Phoenix.
Ted Simons: when someone hears about this and say these are causes that I like to support, your group makes it easy through workplace giving to fund those groups.
Lane Seaton: Absolutely. Again, we come into the workplace, it's either public or private. If you go on our website you'll see we currently partner with many cities across the state, counties, also companies and businesses. And so employees can give through the workplace their workplace giving programs through us they can choose one or more of our specific groups if they really love those causes or they can choose if they can't decide they can choose to get to EFAZ, and that one gift is spread equally among our 28 member groups.
Ted Simons: you mentioned cities being involved, Tempe, Peoria, Surprise the latest editions.
Lane Seaton: It's very, very exciting, yes. City of Tempe and Surprise and Peoria we're partnering with them this year. It's been fabulous. Now with city of Phoenix, it's our third year with them. This fall we have done amazing activities with them. It's really, really been terrific.
Ted Simons: We have photographs -- you guys volunteer opportunities and wildlife rehab and you also give tours as we see some of the city of Phoenix workers. What are we seeing there?
Lane Seaton: Yes. That's a huge part of it. It's not just about giving. We really want to build partnerships with workplaces and give them a chance to first learn about our groups. Learn about this incredible work being done, and get to know them through these tourism volunteer opportunities. City of Phoenix, their community service fund drive committee members, they came out to Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center. We did a fabulous tour with them. Actually, their response was so great that city of Phoenix had to schedule back to back tours. It was still so great that we had to do a third tour at Wild at Heart or two tours up there I think the following weekend. So when given the options, some great things can happen. That was really fun.
Ted Simons: and this is fantastic. The bald eagle. You sends people out there, they see where their money is going or where it could go. Makes a big difference.
Lane Seaton: it does. When you're actually there and seeing where your dollar is going, it really makes all the difference. Again, not just for giving but for learning and for volunteer opportunities as well. So that's really what we're about. The giving piece is just one part of it. We really are a statewide hub, resource for Green, for education, for getting involved, volunteering again.
Ted Simons: Jobs even?
Lane Seaton: Jobs even on our site. Under the get involved tab there's a jobs page with some great sustainability resources Green job sites. Other kind of resources locally and nationally.
Ted Simons: and over the years now how much do you think you've raised so far?
Lane Seaton: We're over 1 million right now.
Ted Simons: Very good.
Lane Seaton: That's pretty good. On average every year it's about 125,000 that we raise for all of our member organizations.
Ted Simons: is that number growing despite tough economic times? What's the graph looking like?
Lane Seaton: That's a good question. The last couple of years, last three, four years it's been up and down. '08 was our best year. That was about 150,000. After that with the economy it went down a bit, but it's growing. Then again with new partners, with Tempe and surprise and Peoria, great engagement with city of Phoenix, we're looking at this year having some greater support.
Ted Simons: congratulations on your success. Continued good fortune. Good to have you here. Thanks for joining us.
Lane Seaton: Thank you so much.

Assessing Student Progress in meeting the expectations of "The Common Experience"
Notes: The above statistics were calculated on a stratified sample of students selected from the freshman cohort entering in the fall of 2006. The initial "N" value represented slightly more than 10% of the entering class and was deemed statistically viable. These same students were tracked as part of the midpoint and final assessments.
The assessment process utilized a writing assessment rubric with five assessment variables including; Purpose, Organization, Details, Grammar and Syntax as well as Use of Sources. Though there were variable rates of improvement in each of the assessment categories, the overall trend demonstrated significant growth in student aptitude in each of the variable components.

Does humanist eupraxsophy* offer any hope for humankind? For many people this is the ultimate test of the secular outlook.
For theists, the single most important hope is theism's promise of eternal salvation. The term religion in its original etymological sense meant religäre or "to bind." This referred to a state of life bound by monastic values. Those in monastic orders had the hope of receiving salvation in the next life, presumably as a reward bestowed by God on deserving believers. Unfortunately, the evidence for immortality of the soul is totally insufficient. The belief is based on wishful thinking. Human consciousness ("soul") is a function of the body, and as the body dies, consciousness, too, disappears.
The belief in immortality should be exposed as a false hope. Death is final for everyone—the believer and nonbeliever, the commander of armies and the lowly soldier, the dedicated teacher and the beginning student, the moral idealist and the profligate hedonist. Would life be truly hopeless, as many theists expect, if everyone accepted the reality that each of us will die some day?

Ivan Galamian (1903-1981)
Photo of Meadowmount Faculty (circa 1967)
Ivan Galamian was one of the greatest violin teachers of the 20th Century. Born in Tabriz, Persia (Iran), his family emigrated to Moscow where he studied violin with Konstantin Mostras (a pupil of Leopold Auer). At the advent of the Bolshevik revolution he fled for Paris where he studied with Lucien Capet. Then, in 1937, with war imminent, he came to the U.S. where he began teaching at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, and at The Juilliard School in New York City.
He was an incredibly dedicated teacher. He would teach 9 hours every day -- a bit less on Sundays. At the time I was studying with him at Juilliard he had approximately 104 students and several full-time assistants. Some students would see him once a month, others twice a month, and a few every week. His assistant teachers taught the students their lessons in the weeks when they didn't see him.
What I appreciate about the man was his infinite patience and his quiet humility. Outside his studio was displayed a quote from Senneca: "Most powerful is he who has himself in his own power." A man of very few words, he rarely gave compliments to his students on their playing. He believed that a violinist's playing should speak for itself, without the help of spin-doctors, and that only complete dedication to practicing over many years could yield meaningful results.

BETHLEHEM, N.H. (AP) - A new arts center planned for the White Mountain School in Bethlehem, N.H., will be named after Catherine "Kitty" Houghton, a school trustee who was killed last week in Littleton.
Houghton, a 1960 graduate of the school, was in town last week meeting with the board of trustees.
She was fatally stabbed in the lobby of a Hampton Inn on Jan. 28. Prosecutors called it a random act of violence. Rodney Hill of West Danville, Vt., is charged with two counts of second-degree murder.
Rob Constantine, the school's director of advancement, tells The Caledonian-Record Houghton was an advocate for the arts center. She was a big supporter of the music program.
Construction is expected to start in the spring, with an opening date of January 2014.

Martha Street Culp - 2001 Honorary Alumni
Every person has a story to tell. The
chronicle of this honorary alumna's life has touched many at East
Tennessee State University and throughout the region. Martha Street Culp
was first lady of ETSU from 1968 to 1977, while her husband Dr. Delos
P. Culp served as the university's fourth president. However, this story
is not about her years on campus; this is the tale of a woman who is
known for her unstoppable enthusiasm, commitment to education, and most
of all her love for her family and friends that shines as an example to
us all.
She was born on November 4, 1915, in a rural
mountain area near Gadsden, Ala. She was the oldest of 10 children of
Alonzo and Mattie Street. The depression years were hard for the Street
family, but she had dreams of attending medical school and helping those
that were in need. That desire to help others would remain a motto in
Mrs. Culp's life.
In 1932, at the age of 16, she
graduated from Glencoe High School, but there was no hope of her
attending medical school. So she entered Jacksonville State University
and studied education. That is where she met her sweetheart for life,
Delos P. Culp. The couple married on December 23, 1934.
Mrs. Culp notes they taught school
each year and went to summer school at Auburn until they graduated. She
actually began educating youngsters at the age of 17. At first she
taught at a three-teacher school, but after marrying Dr. Culp, she moved
to his hometown in central Alabama and began teaching at a one-teacher
school. The couple then moved to the southern part of the state where
she taught special education and first grade. Dr. Culp moved fast
through the ranks and was elected superintendent as Mrs. Culp followed
and served as a secretary/bookkeeper.
Known for her kindness, her heart
longed to help children with disabilities. She brought children who were
disturbed or physically handicapped into her home and gave private
lessons. Mrs. Culp also helped organize groups for handicapped aid while
working to pass laws for those who are physically challenged. Her work
with children became very important to her, and she remained involved in
this for the rest of her career in education.
When Dr. Culp retired from East
Tennessee State University, Mrs. Culp began a new career in real estate.
To no one's surprise she excelled in this field and even expanded the
business to buying small homes, renovating them, and selling them for a
profit. She decided to keep some of the homes she purchased and rent
them to Quillen College of Medicine students at low prices.
Besides her professional interests,
Mrs. Culp is known for her varied personal avocations that include
painting, writing, quilting, playing mountain music on a saw,
cross-pollinating thousands of daylilies, and traveling. She has also
been a member of numerous civic organizations and state boards.
Mrs. Culp has three children, Dr. Jean
Culp Flanigan '79, Associate Director of University Libraries at ETSU;
James D. Culp, JD '73 '78, former City Attorney for the City of Johnson
City, and Dr. John S. Culp '76, Associate Professor, ETSU Department of
Family Medicine. She is also the proud grandmother of six.

"It's the old made new again," said Bourg, who explained that cider's been around since time immemorial. "There's been a resurgence in the U.S.; George Washington made his own cider." Of the three presented — Crispin, Sam Adams' Angry Orchard and Strongbow, a Heineken product — the apple of our eye was the last one, there's your society cider. As for guests, there were no bad apples in this bunch, which included Rachel and Chad Murray, Rhonda Nelson, Tim Neal, Kathy McKee, Caitlin McKee, Pat Olson, Cecile Mouton and Mella and Raoul Viera.

I've had the pleasure of calling Southern California my home for almost my entire life, so Los Angeles has a very special place in my heart. After seeing countless time-lapse videos featuring L.A, I thought I saw every possible way to view the city. I was wrong. Colin Mika and Brandon Vedder of All Cut Up Films created this unique time-lapse video that captures the city of angels during the holiday season – all through a water-filled light bulb.
"Snow Globe Los Angeles was created using over 4000 still images shot on a custom built camera rig," they explain. "The effect was achieved using a Canon 5D MII, a homemade tilt-shift style lens, a light bulb filled with water, and paper cut outs to create shaped bokeh."

BUCHAREST (Feb. 7)
The Union of Jewish Students published an appeal today in Curicul Israelit, organ of the Union of Rumanian Jews, asking its members to attend university lectures even at the risk of violence.
Holding that anti-Jewish feeling prevailing in universities aimed at complete elimination of Jews from liberal professions, the appeal urged students to defend their rights, no matter what danger they encountered in their struggle.
Co-eds were among a number of Jewish medical students beaten in a renewal of anti-Semitic disorders at the University of Bucharest. They were attacked as they sought to enter the medical school through a line of pickets patrolling the entrances.

Y'all, I don't know how I ever blogged daily. I think back to four, five, six years ago and how much blogging I did. HOW DID I DO THAT?!
The Student Week version of the Shoot Shop, back in June, was a huge success. I was thrilled with how the entire week went and was like a proud parent during the gallery show at the end. It was fun to see how each student saw things with their own creative twist.
The week after Student Week we left to go camping with my mom. We spent a couple of nights at Gulpha Gorge in Hot Springs. It's a beautiful little campsite. Each time we camp there, we go for a hike and then a dip in the gorge. This trip we went into town and visited Josephine Tussaud's Wax Museum. The children and I were . . . unimpressed. Ha! From there we drove further south to Lake O' the Pines, Texas. We tubed, swam, showered in the bathhouse, got covered in bug bites, and had lots of good cousin time.
We start back with our full load of school the first week of August, but I've slowly been adding in some of the new classes for the children. My youngest is taking a self-paced history class through Veritas Press. He just finished week two and is loving it. Yay! I joined a website called SchoolhouseTeachers.com and they have loads of classes to chose from. One of my boys started a Computer Science and Programming class. It's the first time I've ever seen him excited about something in school, so that's exciting for me. 😉
Onto the recipe . . .
This was a kid favorite, easy to prep and easy to cook. A win-win-win in my book.

Let me talk you through how I do it!
1. Start out with fresh, moisturised skin. Apply an oil free sunscreen now and let it sink in.
2. After applying some mattifying primer on my nose and cheeks, I apply my foundation and work in with a damp beauty sponge. Try and keep it sheer to medium coverage. Nothing too heavy. If you have problem skin, use concealer to spot conceal.
3. I apply concealer under my eyes and on any problem areas. I again use a damp beauty sponges to work in for a flawless finish. Lightly dust your face with a translucent powder.
4. Using a contour trio pallette (blush, contour & highlighter), I apply the contour colour below my cheekbones. Go from the middle of your ear towards your mouth but only going as far as in line with the outer part of your eye. Blend it out. I then apply the blush to the apples of my cheek and blend upward towards the top of my ear. Lastly light sweep some highlighter ontop of the cheek bones. All three colours should blend seamlessly into each other.
5. Using the same contour pallette, use a fluffy brush to apply contour colour to the the crease of your lid. You want to look straight ahead in a mirror and place your brush under your browbone and apply in a windscreen wiper motion. You want to just be able to see this shadow with your eye open. Slightly bring it up a little on the outer corner and blend.
6. With the blush colour, apply with a flat shadow brush all over the lid. Use a fluffy brush to blend any lines. I then grab the highlight colour and apply to the inner corners of the eye.
7. Using a dome or pencil brush, apply she blush colour under your lash line, keeping the density to the outter eye. Grab some of the contour colour and blend in as well. Don't bring the colour into inner corner- fade it out.
8. Keep brows natural by using a tinted brow gel and brush into place.
9. Apply two coats of your favourite mascara (each coat should be about 10-15 swipes - move onto next eye and them go back for second coat)
I love a pink lip on myself but choose your favorite summery colour like coral, nude, rose etc and apply.
God bless

Aurora CO (SPX) Sep 29, 2008
Raytheon has achieved a significant program milestone for the National Polar- orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) by successfully completing ground segment acceptance testing of the data processing segment at the NOAA Satellite Operations Facility three weeks ahead of schedule.
The interface data processing segment, which will deliver the NPOESS data products to the users, is vital for future environmental analysis and weather forecasting supporting civil applications, scientific research, and military operations.
This segment will first be used on the NPOESS Preparatory Project (NPP), a risk reduction mission for NPOESS that will fly early versions of key sensors as a bridge between NASA's EOS missions and NPOESS.
"This is another major program milestone leading to the launch and operations of the NPP system and then the NPOESS system," said Ed Phillips, system program director for the NPOESS Integrated Program Office.
This accomplishment sets a new standard in high-speed environmental data processing volume, accuracy and throughput.
"The interface data processing segment is advancing scientific applications and is the latest in remote sensing technology to enhance weather forecasting," said Mike Mader, vice president and NPOESS program lead for Raytheon.

The budget for home care services for people with disabilities has been underspent by $11 million last year, according to Treasury documents.
The NSW Budget papers also show funding for home care has fallen by $23 million this financial year compared to last year.
The NSW opposition spokeswoman for disability services, Barbara Perry, said the funding cut was short-sighted because the program was vital for helping people with disabilities stay in their own homes.
She said many young people in particular were having difficulty accessing services.
"The whole aim is to prevent people with disabilities from ending up in inappropriate residential care or being prematurely admitted by providing support in their homes such as domestic assistance," she said.
"In NSW, the program is already under pressure with significant unmet need and the lack of funding will only put more pressure on other areas of the disability system."
In June last year, the O'Farrell government promised to provide growth funding of $12.9 million for community care services for young people.
NSW Treasury documents show the Department of Family and Community Services' forward estimates for 2012-13 are $11 million less than what was budgeted.
An internal Family and Community Services memo dated October 5 last year says: "In future years Home Care will be required to make further efficiency and labour cost savings of at least $2.5 million annually. Work is underway to identify measures that will allow these savings to be achieved."
The Council of Social Service of NSW has identified a lack of services for young people with disabilities. It says the number of young people who can access services has been restricted.
A council spokeswoman said the NSW government's funding for 2012-14 is $23 million less for 2012-13 than it was the previous year.
"Unmet demand for community care is high, and there are considerable waiting lists for many services," she said.
The Minister for Disability Services John Ajaka strongly denied claims that the government has cut $23 million from the NSW Community Care program.
"Recurrent funding for Community Care service providers in NSW has not been reduced and no services have been cut," he said.
He said there had been changes in federal and state funding responsibilities for the home and community care program.
"We are in continuing negotiations with the commonwealth government about funding arrangements. The commonwealth has not responded in a timely fashion," Mr Ajaka said.
"We aim to have this resolved by October 2013, but I again implore my commonwealth counterpart to come to the table on this important issue."
A spokeswoman for the federal Minister for Mental Health and Ageing, Jacinta Collins, said the federal government has been responsible for basic maintenance, support and care services for older Australians previously delivered through the joint HACC program in all states and territories except Victoria and Western Australia since July 2012.
State and territory governments are responsible for funding and administering these services for people aged less than 65 years and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged less than 50 years.
The spokeswoman said commonwealth funding for the home and community care program in 2013 to 2014 in NSW is expected to be approximately $517 million.
"A commonwealth HACC growth funding round worth $281 million is currently being conducted so it is not correct to imply that funding for HACC services for older people has been cut," she said.

Bill Black Biography
William Patton Black, 17 September 1926, Memphis, Tennessee, USA, d. 21 October 1965, Memphis, Tennessee, USA. Black was the bass-playing half of the Scotty And Bill team that backed Elvis Presley on his earliest live performances. After leaving Presley, Black launched a successful career of his own as leader of the Bill Black Combo. Initially playing an acoustic stand-up bass, Black was hired as a session musician by Sun Records, where he met Presley in 1954. He played on the earliest Sun tracks, including Thats All Right. Black toured with Presley alongside guitarist Scotty Moore; later, drummer D.J. Fontana was added to the group. Black and Moore left Presleys employment in 1957 owing to what they felt was unfair payment. The Bill Black Combo was formed in 1959, with Black (electric bass guitar), Reggie Young (guitar), Martin Wills (saxophone), Carl McAvoy (piano) and Jerry Arnold (drums). Signed to Hi Records in Memphis, the group favoured an instrumental R&B-based sound tempered with jazz. Their first chart success was Smokie Part 2 in late 1959, but it was the follow-up, White Silver Sands, in the spring of 1960, that gave the group its biggest US hit, reaching number 9. Black retired from touring in 1962, and the group continued performing under the same name without him, with Bob Tucker playing bass. The group also backed other artists, including Gene Simmons on the 1964 number 11 hit Haunted House. Saxophonist Ace Cannon was a member of the group for some time. The group continued playing even after Black died of a brain tumour in October 1965. The Bill Black Combo achieved a total of 19 US chart singles and was still working under the leadership of Tucker decades later.

A biology major and Hatha yoga devotee, Sandra shares Himanshu's desire to show everyone the path to total-body wellness. Together, they founded Hari Yoga, a space where practitioners are invited to connect their minds, bodies, and spirits. They encourage students to "get in touch with their Divine Self," which non-students can only do via text message.
After twisting through the nine varieties of yoga taught by yoga professionals, visitors might appreciate a soothing massage. With the same training that guides the center's yoga classes, the massage therapists heal bodies and raise spirits through a variety of holistic techniques. These include tui na, a practice that helps the body heal itself through a balance of qi; Thai massage, a fully-clothed technique that combines deep pressure with assisted stretches; and Ayurvedic massage, which is designed to prevent disease through ancient principles of natural healing. Clients may also bask in standard therapies such as Swedish and deep-tissue massage.

Summary:Lightweight, easy to use. No problems with the piezo starter. Only concern is there is little dispersion of the heat with the small, quarter size burner, creating a real hotspot if you're doing more than heating water. This is easy to address with a lower setting.

Microsoft: Xbox One trade-in reports are 'inaccurate'
Since the Xbox One's reveal on Tuesday there's been plenty of speculation surrounding the system's ability -- or inability, rather -- to play pre-owned games. The confusion among press and gamers alike stems from a report from Wired that claimed the Xbox One will require an activation fee to play used games. That confusion has only been furthered by Microsoft's own silence on the subject.
Yes, the console maker has since come out to assure us that the Xbox One has been designed to "enable our customers to trade in and resell games at retail," but the lack of detailed explanation has led to some uneasiness among gamers. Why hasn't Microsoft just come out and said what the deal was?
So again, for a second time, Microsoft Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb has come out to "clarify" a few questions regarding this whole used games thing.
"The ability to trade in and resell games is important to gamers and to Xbox. Xbox One is designed to support the trade in and resale of games," Hryb said. "Reports about our policies for trade in and resale are inaccurate and incomplete. We will disclose more information in the near future."
And again, for a second time, we're still left wondering how the Xbox One will work with trade-ins and pre-owned games. Microsoft keeps saying the Xbox One will support trade-ins, which I do believe it will do; however, I find it oddly suspicious that they haven't yet denied any of the rumors regarding an activation fee.
Here's an idea, Microsoft: if the speculation articles are incomplete and inaccurate, why don't you just come out and say what your policy is regarding used games on the Xbox One?

I have never said that I am a perfect parent, nor will I ever say I am one. I will however say that I will bring my daughter up with the values that I believe a young lady should have. I am a firm believer that a parent should act like a parent, and not a friend to their children. The parent is supposed to be there to guide their child through life until they are ready to go out on their own. This is what I thought a parent was intended for. I normally don't care what other parents do with their children, but when it has something to do with family it just totally changes the situation a bit.
Here is why I say this… First we were told that someone we know was engaged at 15. We weren't even told this by word of mouth. We found this out because of a posting on Facebook. When we heard of this we asked the mother, and we were told that this is how they do things out where they are. She also told us that they wanted to get married after 3 weeks of knowing each other. Well, here at my house the boy would have been questioning the meaning of life if this had happened to my daughter. Maybe the mother feels that way about her community, but I highly doubt that this is true.
Well, to top that off we recently came to find out that someone we know is pregnant at a way younger age than most parents would normally allow. Why didn't someone take the boy for a seriously long walk. Maybe a run-in with the law, or just a restraining order would have done if you didn't want anything "STUPID" to happen. Let's just say that "15" is too young. Well, my wife spoke with the mother, and was basically told that they (the parents) knew that she was having "Boy/Girl" extra-curricular activities because they were purchasing items for them to practice "Safely."
Well, we have never felt that there were any evident parental skills shown as far as we have seen, and this comes as a fully true statement now. The parents have promoted this child ruining her life. The child can't even get a job yet because of labor laws. Whether they realize it or not the child will end up dropping out of school, not having a childhood, and more than likely will barely be able to afford a child. I know how hard it is to have a child. I have one, and I can't work enough to be sure that my entire family is fully secure. Money has been rough with the way the economy is. There is no question about that. My wife just wishes that she took more time to talk to this person, as she feels that maybe she could have helped kept some of this from happening. I ask her if the new web conferencing phones have a "Smack", "Beat", or "Kick" buttons integrated into them.
Moral of the story…
"Parents please take a good look at your children and their actions. Ask if that is how you would have been brought up, and ask yourself if that is how you think they should be brought up."
Note: No names have been mentioned to protect the innocent. Woops! There is no innocent in this matter. How about a visit to Steve Wilkos Show, or Oprah, or some tv show that will expose the brilliant wonders in this matter. BTW… If the parties that this is about don't like what I have to say… Well… Tough. Why not ask your son how his life turned out. Think he will tell you what he feels?

Perhaps most thrilling for Canadian researchers, Library and Archives Canada (LAC), the country's main repository of historical records, has announced plans to put most of its services online within the next seven years—in time to celebrate the confederation's 150th anniversary in 2017. That plan includes several goals, among them:
The Canadiana Discovery Portal is a beta site that lets you search more than 60 million pages of Canadian content from archive collections in libraries, museums, universities and government agencies across the country. Just type a search term, such as a name, place or topic, into the box on the home page. You'll get digitized books, photos. audio and video You can sort results by relevance or newest/oldest, and filter by language, media (image, audio or video), contributing archive or date range covered.
You can raise your glass to this: Ancestry.ca is honoring the 225th anniversary of Molson Brewery with "mug-rattling" family stories of the Labatt and Molson families, Canada's most famous brewers. One such tale you can read about in old newspapers: Harry Markland Molson, great-grandson of John Molson, perished with the Titanic in 1912.
If you're looking for some guidance in your Candian roots research, here are some of Family Tree Magazine's resources to check out:
It's not as simple as taking a quick snapshot, though. Before you start a genealogical photography session, create a shot list of the pictures you want. Here's what we recommend:

Each month, a recipient will receive up to $1,000 to help fund a family history research or historical preservation project. The first grant will be awarded at the end this month.
The company is seeking any project that "contributes to the promotion and advancement of family history research and preservation." That might be document preservation, historical artifact restoration, record transcription or promotion of historical events.
Both individuals (whether amateur or professional) and organizations (such as libraries, historical societies and archives) are eligible to apply.
You can learn more about the grant program on the application page and send questions to firstname.lastname@example.com.
See Archives' full announcement here.
The records, dating from 1500 to 1937, comprise nearly 18 million images scanned from microfilm and microfiche of the original church records. The collection includes births, baptisms, marriages, deaths, burials, household examinations (akin to censuses), parish books, moving-ins and moving-outs.

One of the newest course offerings over at Family Tree University is an eight-week master class designed to help you make progress, step by step, on writing a family history book or personal memoir.
In the first half of Write Your Family History, you'll craft an outline for your book and start putting your family's legacy down on paper. The second half of the course is a workshop, in which you'll share your writing with instructor and professional writer Sunny McClellan Morton, and receive feedback on how to move forward.
The Write Your Family History master class starts Jan. 17, and you can use coupon code FTU114 for 20 percent off your registration and a free 2011 desk calendar.
Here's an excerpt on gathering and organizing your thoughts:
One of the most important habits you can cultivate as a personal or family historian is keeping a journal. Chances are you already keep one or have in the past; many writers do so almost instinctively. If you aren't in the habit of recording your personal thoughts, now's the time to make journaling a part of your routine.
Use whatever style suits you for writing your journal—you're the only one who will see what you write. Any scrap of memory or personal impression may become important later, so just get everything down now and worry about sorting it all out when the time comes.
When you start thinking about writing a memoir or family history, it's natural to feel overwhelmed—so many colorful characters, inspiring stories, and dates and places to keep straight. You'll need to make some choices, perhaps difficult ones, about what will and won't fit into your book. Before you begin writing, it's important to devise a plan to organize your ideas and the information you'll be gathering as you complete your research.
We suggest you start by filling in the beginning and ending dates of your book, so you have the boundaries of your complete dateline. Then associate an event with each date. Use only a few key words or a phrase to denote each event—just enough to jog your memory when you refer to the dateline later.
After you've filled in as many dates and events as you can at this point, go back and determine the historical theme relevant to each event. The historical theme is crucial to your story; it will help place your "characters" into historical perspective.
Here are two examples of personal events with their historical themes:
Date: 3 June 1907
Event: Eleanor arrives alone at Ellis Island.
Historical theme: What was it like for a woman to go through processing at Ellis Island on her own?
Date: 25 Apr 1920
Event: Uncle Harry moves to Florida and buys land.
Historical theme: What drew people to Florida in the 1920s?

Ardent Leisure Group (AAD)
The leisure and entertainment property company Ardent Leisure gave up all its gains of the past 13 months following a disappointing trading update for the nine months ended March 2010. The stock suffered its worst slump since August last year when it tumbled 5.6 per cent to $1.19, after the update on Monday.
Interestingly, Ardent was touted by analysts as one of the best-placed property stocks during the financial meltdown as it had a conservative gearing profile and benefited from the budget-conscious consumer looking to holiday locally and trade down to cheaper entertainment.
The improving economy has probably reversed some of these gains but some brokers are sticking to their "buy" recommendation as the stock is trading on an undemanding price-earnings multiple of around eight times for 2010-11 and on a forecast net yield of about 11 per cent.
RBS Morgans is one such supporter. It noted that bad weather had been one of the factors weighing on the group's performance and that operating conditions for its US-based family entertainment centres appeared to be stabilising. Ardent could release more cash from its balance sheet too. It could get $5.3 million from a sale and lease back of one of its AMF bowling properties and another $16.5 million from the sale of excess land beside its Dreamworld theme park.
However, RBS believes that the golden era of high profits are over for now and that the stock will likely struggle in the short-term until the group returns to revenue growth. In mid-afternoon trading on Tuesday, the stock was down 2.5¢, or 2.1 per cent, at $1.165. RBS has a price target of $1.66 a share.
Avexa (AVX)
Investors in biotech company
Most of the value ascribed to the stock came from this program and its current market cap of around $25 million largely reflects Avexa's net cash holdings. All is not lost though. The company could still secure small licensing deals for the drug and has other early-stage drug candidates in the pipeline. Management could also use the $23 million in its bank account to pursue acquisitions, while a rival could be tempted to buy the company although there is currently no obvious bidder.
However, it would take a brave investor with a strong stomach for risk to back the company given current uncertainties, particularly considering the management shake-up. The company's chief executive, Julian Chick, has resigned, while some shareholders have put forward a resolution to remove one of its directors. In mid-afternoon trading, the stock was down 0.1¢, or 3.3 per cent, at 2.9¢ before closing at 2.8¢.
Sirtex Medical (SRX)
In contrast, fellow biotech hopeful
Unlike most of its peers, Sirtex is already generating revenue from the sale of its microspheres technology, which uses targeted radiation to treat inoperable liver cancer. Management said that dose sales were up 15 per cent over the period, and it had $38.6 million in cash as its unrivalled product gains traction in the global medical community, particularly in Europe.
But the opportunity that would really excite investors is potential use of the microspheres as an earlier treatment alternative instead of being a treatment of last resort. This would significantly expand the market size for the technology. The company has managed to partner up with pharmaceutical giant Bayer Schering and the UK's Oxford University to conduct two clinical trials to show that using the microspheres in conjunction with chemotherapy is a more effective frontline treatment for liver cancer.Rear Window, page 42Rear xxxxx
However, the under-researched stock is tightly held with its top four shareholders holding more than 70 per cent of the stock. Another downside is its foreign exchange exposure given that more than 90 per cent of its sales come from Europe and the US. This means that the rising Australian dollar is likely to have a material impact on its translated earnings.

Can SMS Technology Improve Low Take-up of Social Benefits?
Low take-up of stigma-free social benefits is often blamed on information asymmetries or administrative barriers. There is limited evidence on which of these potential channels is more salient in which contexts. We designed and implemented a randomized controlled trial to assess the extent to which informational barriers are responsible for the prevalent low take-up of government benefits among Colombian conflict-driven internal refugees. We provide timely information on benefits eligibility via SMS to a random half of the displaced household that migrated to Bogotá over a 6-month period. We show that improving information increases benefits' take-up. However, the effect is small and only true for certain type of benefits. Hence, consistent with previous experimental literature, the availability of timely information explains only part of the low take-up rates and the role of administrative barriers and bureaucratic processes should be tackled to increase the well-being of internal refugees in Colombia.
