One to go
St. Frances holds off Elizabeth Seton for Bishop Walsh final berth, will play for No. 2 McDonogh for crown
St. Frances girls' basketball coach Jerome Shelton was hesistant when asked a couple of weeks ago whether this season's squad is his best. The Panthers are on the verge of making a compelling argument.
Top-ranked St. Frances defeated Prince George's County's Elizabeth Seton, 56-51, in the semifinals of the Bishop Walsh Invitational Tournament in Cumberland. Freshman post Angel Reese had 19 points and 12 rebounds and Mia Davis added 16.
The undefeated Panthers (29-0 overall), ranked 13th nationally by USA Today, will face IAAM A rival and second-ranked McDonogh School for the title Saturday evening at 6:15. McDonogh defeated Riverdale Baptist School, 84-64, in the other semifinal match Friday.
Junior guard Kayla Liles finished with 16 points and AJ Davis added 15. The Eagles (26-3) outscored the Prince George's County school, 30-19, in the final period to advance to the tourney's final for the fourth straight year.
It will be fourth match this season between area's top two teams. The Panthers won the first three meetings, including a 56-47 decision in the IAAM A final at Stevenson University last month.
St. Frances will try for its first perfect season, and the first by an area's No. 1 since Western's 27-0 campaign in 1991-92.
In other action, Seton Keough routed Bishop Walsh, 74-16, in a consolation match. The Gators will play Good Counsel Saturday in the program's final game.

New data sheds light on America's immigration fight. The Wall Street Journal reports:
A report by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center released Thursday found that 45% of adults say the growing number of immigrants working in the U.S. hurts workers, while 42% say having more immigrants helps workers. The survey of about 5,000 adults was conducted from late May to late June.
Despite the plurality of negative views, the survey shows that Americans have grown more positive about immigrants' impact on workers over the last decade, a period when immigration to the U.S. dipped. When Pew asked the question in 2006, 55% of respondents said immigration hurt workers, compared with 28% who said immigration helped workers.
This is perhaps not surprising: 2006 was right about the time immigration from Mexico peaked; though conventional wisdom doesn't always reflect this, it's since abated. That was the period when illegal immigration was most visible, and resistance to it, as the failure of the 2007 comprehensive immigration reform bill showed, was widespread at a grassroots level. But something else has changed since: immigration has become a far more partisan issue:
What's striking is how far Democrats and Republicans have diverged on the issue. Democrats view immigration's jobs impact much more favorably now, with 58% saying it helps while 30% say it hurts. In 2006, just 30% said it helps while 54% said it hurts.
Meanwhile, Republicans have soured slightly on the issue, with 67% saying immigration hurts U.S. workers and 22% saying it helps in the recent survey. That's compared with a 61%/24% hurts/helps split a decade ago.
This explains why immigration feels so much more fraught as a political issue now than it did in 2006. In 2007, Republican leaders such as Pres. Bush or Sen. McCain were pro-immigration and pro-immigration reform, while resistance to both largely existed at the grassroots level. The balance has tipped, and in the age of Trump, the populists now hold the whip hand in the party.
But the shift among Democrats has been much less remarked upon—even though it's considerably bigger demographically, and just as important politically, as that among Republicans. Likely, that's because it's bene a shift toward the side most elites and the media agree with. A decade ago, skepticism about immigration was a cross-aisle issue among blue collar workers. This kept Democratic rhetoric about immigration balanced. The party still had voices (including among union leaders and the now-extinct "Blue Dog" Democrats) that were openly skeptical about the benefits of mass immigration, and party leaders gave at least lip service to the importance of enforcement. But demographic shifts in the Democratic coalition, as well as an increased ideological emphasis on viewing immigrants as an oppressed class, and the raw interest calculation that lay behind much of the "Permanent Democratic Majority" triumphalism, drove such sentiments out of the party. Today, arguing for immigration enforcement at all is almost tantamount to racism per se in certain quarters of the left.
There's every reason to believe this polarization will continue after this election season is over. Pro-immigrant democrats look across the aisle and see in Donald Trump confirmation of the view that those who hold anti-immigrant are bigots. Democrats will keep that memory alive long after Trump (likely) loses the race. Republicans, meanwhile, look across the aisle and see a party that refuses to enforce existent law on immigration; increasingly, they ask how they can trust the Democrats to hold up the enforcement provisions of any future deal. And those of us in the middle, who'd like to find a way to help people who may have come here illegally but have been here for decades, but without triggering a massive new flood of illegal immigration—and who want to keep the doors open to legal immigration in a a sustainable fashion—are increasingly squeezed toward the margins.

Doctor Monro Alleyn was a consultant psychiatrist for the Jacinto Maximum Security Prison.
Examining Marcus FenixEdit
- "Fenix won't cooperate, end of story."
- — Alleyn, after interviewing Marcus
Eleven years after Emergence Day, Alleyn interviewed disgraced Gear Marcus Fenix after he was sentenced to the Jacinto Maximum Security Prison for dereliction of duty to determine if he was sane or not. Alleyn concluded that Marcus knew exactly how to hide if he had snapped or not, believing that he knew exactly what answers to give to appear sane and seem fine. Alleyn noted this was typical of his upper class social group, presenting a stoic emotional front to hide what he truly felt, but noted that he was sure Marcus wanted to be punished for what he perceived as his failure to his comrades and the disgrace he brought to his name and regiment. Alleyn guessed that being declared insane and getting set free as a civilian would be an even greater punishment in Marcus' eyes, and noted that this attitude was typical of Tyran Gears. He was curious who a Carlos was that kept popping up during the interview, and sent his findings and questions to the Judge Advocate's office and a copy to the office of Chairman Richard Prescott.[1]

Scheidler Victory In Wisconsin Appeal Could Upset Federal RICO Verdict
By Editorial Staff
Published June 1, 1999
Pro-Life Action League ACTION NEWS, June, 1999, Vol. XVII, No. 1
CHICAGO — Press Statement released by Thomas Brejcha, Friday, May 28, 1999, after the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruled on a case that paralleled the NOW v. Scheidler federal case in Chicago.
Pro-life activist Joseph Scheidler lost a federal racketeering verdict last April, 1998, in a highly publicized class action suit by the National Organization for Women ("NOW") and the nation's abortion clinics. But now Scheidler has won a Wisconsin appeal that could upset the federal verdict. Because the appeal reinstated a global settlement and dismissal, with prejudice, of all claims against Scheidler that arose prior to December 1, 1997, this new development could preclude entry of judgment on last year's federal verdict. Moreover, because the state court case that led to the appeal was closely related to the subject matter of the Chicago class action litigation, the Wisconsin dismissal may bar many, if not all, of the clinics' and women's RICO claims.
On Friday, May 28th, defense counsel in NOW vs. Scheidler will ask Judge David Coar to order further investigation into why and how Summit Women's Health Organization ("Summit"), one of two clinic class representatives in the Chicago RICO suit, filed a parallel lawsuit in Milwaukee Circuit Court. The Wisconsin suit was initiated in August, 1997, just five months after Judge Coar granted class certification, and named Scheidler and the Pro-Life Action Network ("PLAN") the alleged nationwide "racketeering enterprise" in the RICO suit – along with 50 other defendants. Scheidler's counsel protested Summit's new suit in state and federal court alike as duplicative and vexatious. After the Milwaukee trial judge denied injunctive relief, after marathon hearings, Summit offered to settle. Scheidler's counsel pressed for finality as a condition of settlement, and then moved for dismissal and sanctions before Summit agreed. Otherwise, Scheidler accepted the terms as originally proposed by Summit, which were global in scope. The trial judge accordingly dismissed "all claims against [Scheidler] relating to conduct which occurred prior to" December 1, 1997, when the stipulation and dismissal order were signed and entered, with prejudice.
Judge Pressed by Summit
Thereafter, Scheidler contended in federal court that, under Wisconsin's claim preclusion law and the Federal Full Faith & Credit Act, 28 U.S.C. §1738, the dismissal also barred the federal RICO claims of Summit and clinics in "privity" with it. Summit's lawyers raced up to Milwaukee, where they pressed the Milwaukee trial judge for an "emergency" hearing and "extraordinary" post-judgment relief. The upshot was that, on the very eve of the Chicago RICO jury trial, the Wisconsin stipulation was voided and the order was modified to dismiss only the claims Summit pled against Scheidler in state court, where no RICO claim was ever pled. The judge's new order also recited that he did not intend to affect the federal class suit in any way.
But Scheidler took an appeal, and the Wisconsin Court of Appeals has now reversed the modification, reinstating the 'global' stipulation and the original dismissal order, barring "all claims against [Scheidler] relating to conduct.., prior to" December 1, 1997. The appellate court held that "Summit's … failure to recognize the potential collateral consequences of its own drafting" fell short of the requisite "excusable neglect" or "inadvertence'' required for altering a final judgment. Nor Was Summit's "mistake … based on a fact, but rather was [a] mistake of law when its counsel failed to consider the potential legal consequences of the original stipulation's broad language." Nor was there "fraud" or other "misconduct,'' as the trial court found no evidence "supporting Summit's contention that Scheidler's counsel harbored an intent prior to December 1, 1997, to use the broad language of the stipulation, drafted and submitted for approval by Summit's counsel, to defeat the pending federal litigation." Further, the trial court was incorrect "in its attempt to divine the parties' intent in drafting the stipulation," absent a prior finding that the language at issue was ambiguous. On the contrary, the appellate court quoted the trial judge's own recognition "that the relevant language of the stipulation was plain: '[T]he plaintiff entered into a stipulation which seems on its face to have clearly released Mr. Scheidler from anything having arisen earlier with respect to the claims made by Summit …. '" Finally, the Court of Appeals held that the trial court lacked power to narrow the impact of its order, by stating its intent not to have any effect on the federal class action. Only a successor court could assess the effect of a prior judgment.
Vote To Remand Case
Two Wisconsin appellate Justices voted to remand the case, so that the Circuit Court could address whether there were "[a]ny other reasons justifying relief from the operation of the judgment." But those Justices also noted that federal decisions under Federal Civil Rule 60(b) were "persuasive authority" under the Wisconsin rule. Recent federal decisions have construed this "catch-all" provision narrowly and required "extraordinary" showings under it a standard unmet by mere disputes over terms of settlement or even change of law by the Supreme Court. Nor does the mere pendency of trial court proceedings seeking to overturn final judgments, or the pendency of appeals, suspend the effect of final judgments.
Scheidler argues that Summit's final dismissal of "all claims" against him prior to December 1, 1997 necessarily barred the RICO claims at issue in Summit's federal class action. He also contends that, as Summit's state court suit also focused on the "same series of transactions" -alleged clinic disruptions incident to annual national PLAN meetings – out of which Summit's RICO claims arose, even Wisconsin's modified dismissal barred the RICO claims. Wisconsin has adopted an expansive, modern, "broad brush" doctrine of claim preclusion, barring re-litigation of all claims that could have been raised, whenever a lawsuit has finally been determined, on the merits, between the same parties, or their "privies."
Dismissed on the Merits
Here, under Taffin v. Levin, 493 U.S. 455 (1990), federal RICO claims could have been raised in Summit's state court suit equally as in the federal class suit. Therefore, Summit's dismissal on the merits and with prejudice spelled the demise of its (and its privies') RICO claims as well as the claims actually pled. Under the Federal Full Faith & Credit Act, 28 U.S.C. §1738, every federal court throughout the U.S. must give the dismissal order the same effect it would have in Wisconsin.
Scheidler seeks Judge Coar's authorization for "limited discovery" and then a hearing to explore how far any claim preclusion could extend beyond Summit itself. Summit's fellow clinic class representative, Delaware Women's Health Organization ("DWHO'), is also owned and managed by Summit's corporate parent, National Women's Health Organization ("NWHO"). Susan Hill, key clinic witness at the RICO trial, had been president of NWHO, DWHO, and Summit, as well as other class clinics from Fargo to Florida. Another Milwaukee abortion clinic, also a party to the global settlement there and a member of the federal RICO class in Chicago, was owned or operated by Planned Parenthood, as are many other class clinics in the federal RICO case. Whether NWHO, Planned Parenthood, and other class clinics were "in privity" with Summit and DWHO, judicially-certifled class representatives and "legal proxles' for every abortion clinic in the country, who sued (and settled) in Milwaukee for their patients as well as themselves, must be fully explored.
Dismissal Decertifies NOW
Alternatively, Scheidler also contends that the Wisconsin dismissal affords new grounds for defendants' pending motion to "decertify" Summit, DWHO, and NOW (who were all represented by the same counsel in the RICO class action suit) from their status as certified class representatives. Having recklessly risked the claims of NWHO clinics, Planned Parenthood clinics, and all the other class clinics, Summit and its privy DWHO should be disentitled from suing for anybody but themselves. Summit's dead-end detour into Wisconsin belied prior representations by which it won certification, namely, that class-wide adjudication was "superior" to "individual lawsuits … in every city and town in the 46 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico where the class member clinics are located.'' When Summit sought relief, it shunned class-wide RICO relief, instead seeking duplicative, vexatious relief against Scheidler, PLAN, and others in state court. Neither NWHO's Susan Hill, nor her corporate counsel, nor the RICO plaintiffs' class counsel did anything to stop it.
At any rate, Scheidler will contend that the Wisconsin's reinstatement of Summit's global settlement and dismissal undercuts the April, 1998, RICO verdict. At plaintiffs' behest, cross-examination and evidence about Summit's state court lawsuit, and its willingness to jettison all its claims (and its patients' claims) against Scheidler (and PLAN) that arose prior to December 1, 1997, was barred. Wholesale exclusion of all this critical evidence, when Summit's witnesses were allowed to testify freely about alleged "racketeerlng activism by persons allegedly "associated with PLAN" and supposedly "directed" by Scheidler, was patent error that undercuts the verdict.

Editor's Note: Tom Brejcha and Richard Caro appeared before Judge Coar Friday morning, May 28 and attempted to present the issues raised by the Wisconsin lawsuit. Judge Coar began by stating, "Frankly I don't understand the motion." He then denied the motion to reopen the record to include the impact of the Wisconsin decision. The League's attorneys are pursuing other avenues while waiting for Judgo Coar to enter a judgment on the original jury verdict of April 20, 1998. There is a broad range of issues involved in the case which concern those who have a sanctity for the law — not to mention the sanctity of human life. Foremost among them, as Brejcha notes, is that such enforcement of the "RICO law raises terrible constitutional problems with freedom of association."
Among other concerns is the impact this decision might have on peaceable, nonviolent forms of civil disobedience. The case built against Scheidler et al suggests that civil rights protests such as those advanced by Dr. Martin Luther king would -not be permissible today. Also notable is the 900 "mini-trials" for each of the abortion clinics around the country which could result should the judge agree with the plaintiffs that all have been hurt by the defendants. Any injuno tion against the defendants also would be of very questionable validity. No one knows when the judgment will be delivered. In the meantime, however, the League continues to be emboldened by the prayers and support of pro-lifers throughout the country. Any new developments will be reported in Action News and on the ProLife Action League newsline, which is (773) 777-2525.

Frank Schaeffer Will You Please Shut Up! (Book)
High Quality Paperback — 200 pages
A Reasonable Response to Christian Postmodernism
Includes a response to the book Christian Jihad by Colonel V. Doner
The title of this book is a misnomer. In reality, I am not trying to get anyone to shut up, but rather to provoke a discussion. This book is a warning about the philosophy of "Christian postmodernism" and the threat that it poses not only to Christian orthodoxy, but to the peace and prosperity our culture as well. The purpose is to equip the reader with some basic principles that can be used to refute their arguments.
Part 1 is a response to some of the recent writings by Frank Schaeffer, the son of the late Francis Schaeffer. This was originally written as a defense against Frank's attacks on pro-life street activism – a movement that his father helped bring into being through his books, A Christian Manifesto, How Should We Then Live? and Whatever Happened to the Human Race? These works have impacted literally hundreds of thousands of Christian activists.
Part 2 is a response to Colonel Doner and his book, Christian Jihad: Neo-Fundamentalists and the Polarization of America. Doner was one of the key architects of the Christian Right that emerged in the 1980s, who now represents the disillusionment and defection many Christian activists experienced in the 1990s and 2000s. There is still great hope for America to be reformed according to biblical principles. As a new generation is emerging, it is important to recognize the mistakes that Christian activists have made in the past even while holding to a vision for the future.

The Abortion Matrix: Defeating Child Sacrifice and the Culture of Death (DVD)
Download the free Study Guide!
Is there a connection between pagan religion and the abortion industry?
This powerful presentation traces the biblical roots of child sacrifice and then delves into the social, political and cultural fall-out that this sin against God and crime against humanity has produced in our beleaguered society.
Conceived as a sequel and update to the 1988 classic, The Massacre of Innocence, the new title, The Abortion Matrix, is entirely fitting. It not only references abortion's specific target – the sacred matrix where human beings are formed in the womb in the very image of God, but it also implies the existence of a conspiracy, a matrix of seemingly disparate forces that are driving this holocaust.
The occult activity surrounding the abortion industry is exposed with numerous examples. But are these just aberrations, bizarre yet anomalous examples of abortionists who just happen to have ties to modern day witchcraft? Or is this representative of something deeper, more sinister and even endemic to the entire abortion movement?
As the allusion to the film of over a decade ago suggests, the viewer may learn that things are not always as they appear to be. The Abortion Matrix reveals the reality of child-killing and strikes the proper moral chord to move hearts to fulfill the biblical responsibility to rescue those unjustly sentenced to death and to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves (Proverbs 24:11,12; 31:8,9).
Speakers include: George Grant, Peter Hammond, RC Sproul Jr., Paul Jehle, Lou Engle, Rusty Thomas, Flip Benham, Janet Porter and many more.

Dr. Francis Schaeffer - A Christian Manifesto (DVD)
That Swiss Hermit Strikes Again!
Dr. Schaeffer, who was one of the most influential Christian thinkers in the twentieth century, shows that secular humanism has displaced the Judeo-Christian consensus that once defined our nation's moral boundaries. Law, education, and medicine have all been reshaped for the worse as a consequence. America's dominant worldview changed, Schaeffer charges, when Christians weren't looking.
Schaeffer lists two reasons for evangelical indifference: a false concept of spirituality and fear. He calls on believers to stand against the tyranny and moral chaos that come when humanism reigns-and warns that believers may, at some point, be forced to make the hard choice between obeying God or Caesar. A Christian Manifesto is a thought-provoking and bracing Christian analysis of American culture and the obligation Christians have to engage the culture with the claims of Christ.

We'd like to allow the DMZ to continue to use the T1 (interface X1) for internet access and webpage serving ... yet have the LAN folks use the cable ISP on a new zone. Let's call the new WAN interface X3.
I realize the Sonicwall has a very nice Failover / Loadbalancing menu. That's not exactly what we want, as the DMZ should continue to use the T1 for internet connectivity (X1). We just need to direct the LAN users to the new ISP (X3).
How is this done? Can it be done? Route policies or something? If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.

In Network > Routing you can add a new policy using defined address objects to basically say All LAN traffic goes out x3.

If all of your non DMZ traffic is going out the second WAN interface then you can set up your policies to direct all LAN traffic out that interface pretty easily. It gets a little screwy when you need to direct only a portion of your zone traffic out the interface.

Thanks .. actually, I do wonder if load balancing / failover is an option for us, so let me back up and ask another question.
We host websites in our DMZ. Could we use the Sonicwall's load-balancing menu?
I figure the the answer is no, correct? I mean, the two WANs have different IPs, and if a person is hitting our websites, they are going in through only one of the WANs (our T1) .. you couldn't send the data back via a different WAN.
Or am I totally off-base on how loadbalancing works?
Jun 21, 2011 at 10:40 UTC
You can load balance very different internet connections with Sonicwalls. That being said, since cable has a poor upload speed (comparatively) it is not a good idea to put production/web servers on a cable connection. Yours might be different, but if that is true, I'd segregate your traffic rather than try to load balance. Another consideration with load balancing is that it will put a higher load on your Sonicwall in general.
Jun 21, 2011 at 2:43 UTC
Thank you, that's good info.
As an aside .. The T1 is of course 1.5m up and down. The cable modem? 50/5. Not guaranteed, of course, but will probably mop the floor with the T1.
In any event, you are right .. our first inclination was to separate the traffic, and you've given us good reason to continue on that path. Thanks!

I would think that mixing you DMZ traffic with your WAN traffic would be a bad idea.
We have a similar situation where the Fiber connection is for most traffic and the T-1 is for the VOIP phone traffic. I use 2 TZ-170 with each one pointing to a separate external IP address. Shortly we will be buying a NSA240 or 2400 to consolidate and get a bit more performance. I am sure you can split the incoming traffic.
That being said, if you have more than one ip address on your cable modem (we have 16 on our fiber connection), you can home your dsn for the web traffic to one address and the internet traffice to another. Then you can use one-to-one NAT (under Network->One to one Nat on the admin menu on my TZ) to route traffic for your web site to your web server. For example, 126.96.36.199 goes to 192.168.1.10 (the web server) all other traffic goes to the LAN. So www.duncantuna.com goes to 192.168.1.10. That way you could do away with the T-1.

My Grandmother - Boarded and Taught by Nuns in a Convent School - Early 1900s
Kohler, Wisconsin
My maternal grandmother was born near Kohler, Wisconsin, and was one of four living children in her family when her mother died at an early age.
Her mother suffered from from what they at the time called dropsy. Two other sisters of hers had died at early ages of disease.
Her dad was a dairy farmer. To best manage the care of his three daughters without the help of a mother, he sent them to a boarding school during the week that also happened to be a convent operated by nuns.
My grandmother and her two sisters only got to spend the weekends at home during the school year. They would generally be picked up and taken back and forth between school and home by their brother who would drive the horse and buggy.
Old photos / Early 1900's
Their brother got to stay at home with his father because of being needed for work on the dairy farm.
He would have been schooled to some extent locally, but the farm also provided his main education that he would utilize to maintain his life and livelihood as he matured.
Back in those days the typical thing to do was to pass the farm on to the eldest son. In this case, he was the only son and that is exactly what happened.
When he got married and his new wife moved into the farmhouse eventually my grandmother's father purchased a small house in town and moved his three daughters into the house with him.
The four of them lived there together and the girls at that point no longer were boarded and schooled at the convent.
As I was growing up I heard many stories from my grandmother about those days in the convent school. She remembered it with great fondness.

Describes dropsy which is what my great grandmother had when she died and left her children motherless.
Kohler, Wisconsin
Organic Dairyman: The Farmer (In the old days, all dairy farmers were "organic.")
Dairy farming
Wisconsin was known for growing great wheat crops and lumbering long before it became known as the Dairy State. The ground is rich and farming was done by most of the early settlers.
Wisconsin joined the United States as it's 30th state in 1848.
Wheat farming peaked in 1872 and at that same time the Wisconsin Dairymens Association was founded by William D. Hoard and others. Mr. Hoard eventually became a governor of the State of Wisconsin.
With the increased supply of milk, the very first cheese factory was developed by a woman by the name of Anne Picket. She got most of the supply of the milk she needed from dairy farmers in the south central portion of the state.
Lumbering was the main industry from 1890 to 1910 when the dairy industry took over that leading position in the state.
In 1920, Wisconsin had become the top cheese producer in the nation and still holds that title.
Back when my great-grandfather started his dairy farm, milking the cows by hand would have been the routine.
He and eventually his son, when old enough, would have been growing the crops to feed the cows; moving the cows from one pasture to another as needed; taking care of the farming equipment and buildings and hand milking the cows twice daily. They would then have had to store and market the milk.
It was a labor intensive business that required not only hard work, but intelligence and perseverance to best succeed in this type of endeavor. That they did!
Photos of my grandmother as a young lady prior to marriage.
She becomes a wife!
Growing up...
Living in Kohler, Wisconsin my great-grandfather and the three girls lived together until the young women each got married and moved into houses of their own.
I do not know about her sisters and what they might have done, but my grandmother worked at several jobs prior to getting married. She worked as a clerk in a couple of stores and was trained to work as a dental hygienist which she really enjoyed.
Back in those days with rare exceptions, once married the young ladies no longer worked outside the home.
My grandmother became a full time wife , mother and homemaker and she excelled in each area. She developed other talents through the years and was quite artistic.
She was an excellent seamstress and could tailor clothes and upholstery equally well.
My grandmother could look at a dress in a window or even try it on in a store and then go home and make it. She was a perfectionist with her sewing! Each inside seam was bound by hand and her creativity taking this sleeve design and adding it to that bodice design or skirt design could turn the most ordinary of dresses into something really special.
Her dinner parties became legendary!
Besides being a great cook, her table settings were perfection! The garnishes on each plate were works of art. Even as her young grand-daughter, I never saw her serve a radish, for example, that was not embellished to look like a rose.
My grandmother was a gentle soul who shared her love equally with her husband, three children and eventually her grandchildren as they came along.
My two brothers and I along with my parents lived close-by and really got the most benefit from her sweet and caring disposition in everyday living.
She always held her Catholic religion near and dear to her heart and when we got to spend the night with her on a sleep-over, we would each kneel down by the bed and recite our nightly prayers together. A prayer before meals was also routine.
My dear grandmother who had the early influence of being taught by nuns in a boarding school situation integrated that respectful way of living and being grateful for things into her daily life.
My grandmother saw the joy in the simplest of things whether it was wild daisies gathered from the field, or admiring a colorful Fall leaf, or delighting in seeing a drawing done by one of her grandchildren. We were all made to feel really special in her presence and her memory lives on in each of us.

Salinity Effects on Phragmites Decomposition Dynamics Among the Hudson River's Freshwater Tidal Wetlands
- First Online:

- 530 Downloads
Sea level rise due to climate change will expose Hudson River tidal marshes to chronic shifts in salinity, thus altering habitat conditions and biogeochemical processes. Increased salt intrusion may affect macroinvertebrate and microbial communities that are important in the decomposition of a dominant, invasive plant species Phragmites australis. We hypothesized that increased salinity intrusion will negatively affect macroinvertebrate and microbial litter breakdown processes. Field and laboratory experiments were conducted to test the effect of salinity on Phragmites decomposition. Leaf packets were incubated among tidal wetlands along a salinity gradient and used to compare microbial respiration, fungal biomass, and mass loss. In addition, salinity tolerance of a freshwater isopod (Caecidotea sp.) and heterotrophic microbes were examined using laboratory bioassays. Salinity negatively affected isopod survivorship and microbial activity in controlled laboratory experiments; however, salinity did not significantly account for in situ variation in Phragmites mass loss, microbial respiration, and fungal biomass among wetlands. Future studies need to include litter from additional wetland species and consider alternative controls on decomposition (e.g., variation in temperature or inorganic nutrients) in order to best forecast the long-term impact of sea-level rise and salinity increases among tidal freshwater wetlands.

I came from Toronto, Canada to stay at this house with three other adults and two toddlers. We absolutely loved our stay! The house was wonderful! It was very clean, well-furbished and had every amenity we could think of. We had more than enough space for everyone and especially loved the deck, living room and kitchen areas. The best part of course was the gigantic property that goes right down to the lake. Both the inside and outside of the property was meticulously maintained by the owner who made sure everything was perfect for our arrival. The toddlers loved running around on the massive lawn and playing on their own private beach. We even had a bonfire in the fire pit provided. Another amazing thing about this property is that it has its own dock and easy access to the water. We spent a lot of time in the water and enjoyed going kayaking and canoeing. The house is also very close to downtown Newport and we enjoyed eating at local restaurants and walking around this picturesque town. This was such a wonderful trip and we look forward to coming back soon! I would absolutely recommend this property without hesitation to my friends and relatives. You will love your stay!
My husband and I came from California with a 1 and 2-year-old for a New England lake vacation and to visit family. We could not be happier with our stay here! The house was very clean and the property was fantastic. We loved sitting on the beach and playing in the sand, running around on the expansive lawn, relaxing on the deck, and swimming in the lake. We had a boat that we were easily able to tie up and use for the week. Newport is a fun town and we enjoyed Tim & Doug's Icecream as well as dinner at The Tasting Room and breakfast at a great cafe on the main street. Jim, the owner, was very helpful and quick to respond throughout our whole stay. We have been raving about our trip and can't wait to get back again!
This place was just great. My husband, 2 kids and I spent a lovely week here. Just as advertised, extremely clean, quiet and well-maintained. The owner is really nice, helpful and quick to answer our questions. We'll definitely be back, we really enjoyed our stay. Absolutely nothing négative to say - even the weather was on our side.
A great place to stay. Exactly as shown. My husband, 2 boys and I spent one week at this cottage, and it was even better than expected. It is a charming, quiet place, extremely clean and well-maintained. The boys had so much fun running around on the lawn and in the lake. We were able to relax and enjoy, which was exactly what we were looking for. 10 min from Newport, so getting supplies or going our to a restaurant was easy. Jim is friendly and easily reachable, quick to answer any question you may have without being nosy. We're already thinking about when we'll be back - because we definitety will, and that's a first for us in 4 years of renting cottages.

Study shows "reduced income" key to today's personal debt problems
InCharge Debt Solutions data reveals 8% increase in this root cause from 2008-2010
Specifically, the data found that 57% of InCharge clients in Q4 2010 (versus 49% in Q1 2008) said the reason they were struggling with debt was due to a cutback in the number of hours they were being allowed to work or a reduction in their pay rates.
Poor money management (or lack of financial understanding)
Among other interesting findings in the study:
• The percentage of debt-stressed consumers coming to InCharge through the Internet (versus telephone calls and other sources) jumped from 11% to 46%.
• Males continue to request help with debt problems online more often (65% in 2010, up 3%) than females.
• Young adults (18-24 years old) seeking assistance from InCharge dropped from 13% to 9% of the total client base.
• There was an increase of 8% in consumers with debt problems who earn more than the median income for residents of their city.

Militarism and Mortality: An International Analysis of Arms Spending and Infant Death Rates
Woolhandler, Steffie
Himmelstein, David W.
Bibliographic Citation
Lancet. 1985 Jun 15; 1(8442): 1375-1378.
An analysis of the relationship between arms spending and infant mortality rates (IMR) in 141 countries revealed a positive correlation between the two factors. In contrast, negative correlations were found between infant mortality and indicators of economic development, health resources, and social spending. The authors conclude that the strength of the association between IMR and military spending, as proportions of the gross national product, demonstrates that bombs "may kill before they explode," and that "militarism is deleterious to health even in the absence of overt hostilities."

- Mystery Space Ball drops from Namibia Sky
AFP – Thu, Dec 22, 2011
A large metallic ball fell out of the sky on a remote grassland in Namibia, prompting baffled authorities to contact NASA and the European space agency.
The hollow ball with a circumference of 1.1 metres (43 inches) was found near a village in the north of the country some 750 kilometres (480 miles) from the capital Windhoek, according to police forensics director Paul Ludik.
Locals had heard several small explosions a few days beforehand, he said.

Found when looking through the recipes that many were left blank and many ingredients were flipped. Meaning ingredient 2 was listed as ingredient 1. With so many combinations it is important which ingredient is chosen first as so forth. I will be completely redoing all recipes with the entire list's. This will take some time so I will be doing them on new pages with the following names:

This particular design has a silicone lid that securely attaches to the cup. The outside is matte and the inside is glazed. I prefer a version that Starbucks put out a few months ago. Their version is pretty much the same, but the outside is glazed (and of course has their logo) and the lid is plastic with a silicone liner to keep liquids sealed in. The key difference between the two is the price. "I Am Not A Paper Cup" is roughly $20 and the Starbucks version is $12. The upsides to either is that if you are a daily coffee drinker, you don't have to trash a paper cup and plastic lid every time you get take-out coffee. The downside is that both of them hold about 8 oz. - not favorable if you normally order a "grande" at Starbucks. Another issue for commuters is that it is not spill-proof or splash-proof. And finally, the Starbucks version CANNOT go into the microwave.Tags: home, gifts, tea, humor, food, kitchen, environment, cooking, accessoriesAdded 8 Years Ago from Chiasso
