expanded; opening one store in Vancouver in 1965, one in Calgary in 1968 and
in 1972 stores in Burnaby and West Vancouver. Glenn also worked with
Northwest Releasing promoting such acts as Liberace, Louis Armstrong, Jack
Benny, the Irish Rovers and Harry Belafonte. It was one of his joys in life
meeting those people. In the mid 70's, Glenn was involved in the Canadian
development and distributorship of Doodle Art posters. For thirteen years
Glenn owned and operated Ambleside Toys and Hobbies, a popular toy and hobby
store in West Vancouver, which he opened in 1983. Retirement involved living
on Vancouver Island in Nanoose Bay and trips to Vancouver to see his
granddaughter, Elysia as well as family. Glenn also enjoyed attending
Vancouver Canadians baseball games, concerts (Vancouver Symphony; Clark
Terry) , trips on the Royal Hudson steam train, dinners at Bistro Chez
Michel. Other passions in his life were trips with his family to Banff,
California, Oregon and Vancouver Island. The family would like to sincerely
thank the doctors and nurses at Victoria General Hospital, Ward 6B South for
their thoughtful care. Glenn will be extremely missed but not forgotten. A
private memorial will be held at a later date.

McEACHERN _ CORA February 11, 1928 - November 4, 2006 It is with a very
heavy heart we announce that Cora passed away suddenly on Saturday November
4th. After battling Lupus for nearly 30 years, her health had been failing
over the past while, and she became especially weak the last few months.
This once incredibly strong and fiercely independent woman lost her ability
to fight back when her lungs and heart gave out that morning. Cora lost her
husband Milton in 1971, and her oldest son Brian in 1988. She is survived by
children Lanie Goebel; Cyndie (Dwain) Kremyr; Marlin; Dan (Laurie Evoy); and
son-in-law Randy Goebel. She was so proud of grandchildren Kari Goebel; Jodi
Goebel; Justin Kremyr; Kelly Goebel; Jordan Kremyr; Breanne Evoy; and Justin
Evoy. She is survived by her brother Ed Olsen and his wife Lil; and
sister-in-law Noni Olsen; both ladies being such good friends of hers. Her
Olsen nieces also held a very special place in her heart. The family would
like to pay special thanks to Frank and Dagny Yurkin, two devoted lifelong
friends of Cora's; and also to Karen Nelson, her niece and a wonderful
companion for her these past few years. Good friends also included Art &
Gladys and Howard & Dot McEachern. She had lots of fond memories of her
"ladies days" with Karen, Mary-Anne, Myrtle and Evelyn. Cora held so many
wonderful memories of the McEachern and Olsen families, and loved to tell
those fishing tales. She loved the water and cherished the memories she held
of her and her husband's time fishing and visiting the coastlines of BC. She
fondly remembered deckhand and friend Joe Smith, and also had lots of tales
and great memories of time spent with the many McEachern wives. Thank you to
all the ladies from the South Fraser Home Support for your help and kindness
to Mom over the past while. She so appreciated your daily visits. Thank you
also to two wonderful doctors who helped Mom so much over the years: Dr.
McDonald (Langley) and Dr. Fenton (New Westminster). By Mom's request, there
will be no formal service.

Meanwhile, somewhere between Reality Pump's offices in Poland and the western localization of Two Worlds II, someone mistakenly decided that the rest of their character development could be handled entirely by some of the worst voice acting I've heard in a game since the original Resident Evil. Every possible dialogue atrocity is here: tone deaf delivery, overly dramatic readings, engrish, mistranslated euphemisms and colloquialisms, missing words -- you name it, and Two Worlds II will at some point assault you with it. The dialogue atrocities and fantasy 101 sound effects make the music in Two Worlds II even more surprising by virtue of its competence. It's a fun, interesting score that avoids some epic fantasy cliches - it often reminded me of the original Diablo's soundtrack, and that isn't a bad thing.
Instead, Two Worlds II's bad is peppered throughout the rest of the game. The interface and menus are terrible and difficult to navigate. The quest log is riddled with grammatical errors and is oddly organized. The world doesn't feel particularly populated, and the quest design feels half-assed and riddled with wild difficulty spikes. There was a point early on in Two Worlds II where I had been cruising through the story, and was tasked with clearing a tribe of monsters from a termite mound. I galloped into the area on my horse expecting to dispatch them in the same way I had murdered countless other savages only to be worked over in short order. Ultimately, my only means of clearing them out involved picking one off from a distance, saving my game, and repeating, reloading at the points where I was discovered and quickly killed.
There are enormous sections of Two Worlds II that became extended old-school save-crawls as I made my way to the end. While the timer on my save read around 14 hours by the time I screamed and shouted and pushed my way through Two Worlds II's final (miserable, cheap, and poorly designed) boss encounter, I would put my play time in the neighborhood of 35 hours, at least. This is courtesy of Two Worlds II's propensity to greet exploration with quick, brutal death.
Two Worlds II finds some redemption in its loot; all of the abuse heaped on players can in turn be directed towards almost any item in the game, breaking it down into its component materials and gems to be used to upgrade other items. This makes finding almost any weapon or piece of armor exciting, because even trash can be used to make treasure. The spell system is even more interesting. Spells are housed in amulets, which are populated with cards. Base cards determine an elemental effect, like Fire or Stone, and the way that effect is directed, whether personal or offensively, etc. Modifier cards can do simple things like add homing effects or completely change the nature of a spell from, say, absorbing some fire damage to causing fire damage to attackers and more. Spell effects can be unpredictable, which encourages experimentation, and additional points in different spell types can allow even more wild variations, like fireballs that explode into chain lightning that spawns giant spiders on impact.
Reality Pump also blazes new trails with the Two Worlds II multiplayer component, which brings some MMO conventions in bite sized chunks to the epic action RPG space. Players can engage in deathmatch combat, play a standalone multiplayer campaign, or even engage in a sort of RTS/city builder Village mode where they create and maintain their own fantasy town using their spoils of conquest.
The inventive spell system and multiplayer element don&#Array;t make Two Worlds II good, unfortunately. They provide good points for brave RPG fans to find some purchase and explore the game, though. Two Worlds II has a lot of potential, but ultimately, it can&#Array;t fulfill the lofty ambitions that Reality Pump set for it and comes up shorter than it probably would have for the trouble.

text: To push from an Ipad, you have to first start the y2cast program from an Android phone. So, why wouldn't you just also push from the Android phone instead of the Ipad. Am I missing something or is an Ipad version of y2cast coming where you wouldn't need the Android phone? Or would this work with 2 Chromecasts at the same time once you started y2cast, one for the phone and one from the Ipad?

Reuters is reporting that Sony have shipped over 1 million units of its Move controllers in the Americas, which includes both the North and Latin varieties. SCEA CEO Jack Tretton says that they can barely keep up with product demand.
Tretton said, "We had to go back and increase production twice, we're absolutely maxed out right now."
This shows that despite criticisms that the tech is too similar to Nintendo's Wii, consumers are finding reason to try out Sony's Move. Trying it out for ourselves we were impressed by the technology. To top it off, there's some compelling software coming along, such as the Sly Collection and Killzone 3, along with updated greats such as Heavy Rain and MAG.
Hopefully this success will lead to a bright future of quality games, and not the shovelware minefield that Wii gamers have had to navigate for years.

I needed to have three injections of orthovisc in my knee. It will cushion it. First shot....great I feel better. Second shot on last Monday....even better. Friday at work me knee started hurting in new places. Finished my 12 hour day and went home and sat down. When I got up there was a loud crack and now I can't straighten my leg and it hurts bad enough to wake me at night. I called this morning and I can see the DR on Monday. In the meantime I am taking large doses of ibuprofen and icing it. The knee is swollen and HURTS. Think of me on Monday. I hope it is something simple. Oh, and it's the leg I work my sewing machine foot petal with so I can't sew. Bummer.

SA-ROC - Maximum Frequency
Update: The Tommy Nova-directed visuals for SA-ROC's Maximum Frequency single have been added.
According to Wikipedia, the Maximum Frequency a human being can hear is around 20,000 Hz. Fortunately for anyone with eardrums, SA-ROC's latest single contains no sounds in that neighborhood, but it does pack all the dope beats and complex bars we've come to expect from the D.C. mic-murderer. Though she begins the record by assuring listeners of her commitment to nonviolence, she follows that affirmation up with a flurry of lyrical artillery guaranteed to leave sucker emcees shaking in their boots. Sol Messiah produces the cut's grimy, sampled beat, flipping a snippet from Busta Rhymes's classic Woo Hah!! Got You All In Check on the hook. For more, check out the artist's NEBUCHADNEZZAR LP, available for streaming and purchase right here in the Booth.

Cubs can't back Wood as skid reaches eight
Cubs can't back Wood as skid reaches eight
Jose Altuve hit a leadoff home run and J.D. Martinez delivered a tiebreaking RBI single in the sixth inning Tuesday to lift the Astros to a 2-1 victory and hand the Cubs their eighth straight loss.
It's the longest skid since Chicago lost eight in a row from May 30-June 7, 2011. How tough has it been? The Cubs have not had the lead since the fourth inning on May 16, a stretch of 59 innings. They have scored one run off a starting pitcher in the last four games, a total of 25 1/3 innings.
"We just can't seem to get anything going," Cubs manager Dale Sveum said.
They had a chance in the eighth. Reed Johnson singled with one out and was lifted for pinch-runner Tony Campana, who reached third on an errant pickoff throw by Wilton Lopez. Campana did a Superman-style dive over third baseman Matt Downs and sailed past the bag, but he was able to scamper back in time. However, the acrobatics were wasted as Lopez struck out both Starlin Castro and Alfonso Soriano.
"With Campana there, it was huge," Sveum said. "Anything put in play, he would score on it. [Soriano] hit a solo shot, but we can't seem to get that three-run shot."
Give Campana credit for hustling.
"That's unbelievable, man," Soriano said. "That dive he made -- I thought we had an opportunity to tie the game, but we came up short."
What was Sveum thinking when Campana was halfway between second and third?
"[I was thinking], 'Uh oh,'" Sveum said. "You've got to be able to use that speed and test it. I would've had no problem if he was thrown out, because he was being aggressive and he was in the game for that reason."
Travis Wood (0-1), who was 3-3 with a 4.57 ERA in seven starts for Triple-A Iowa, made his first start in Chris Volstad's spot. On Tuesday, Volstad was the winner in Iowa' s 18-8 romp over Tacoma. He didn't get that kind of offensive support in his eight starts with the Cubs when he was 0-6.
Neither did Wood. Chicago stranded six, and Astros pitchers totaled 13 strikeouts, which matched a season high for the Cubs.
Altuve hit Wood's third pitch of the game for his homer, and Jed Lowrie followed with a double for the only hits off the lefty.
"The first pitch [Altuve] hit out wasn't where it was supposed to be, and he put a good swing on it and hit it out," Wood said. "The second one that [Lowrie] hit was where it was supposed to be, and he hit it down the line for a double."
Wood had a rough Spring Training, yet seems back on track. He also posted a quality start on May 6 when he subbed for Matt Garza.
"I tip my hat to him," Sveum said. "I know he's gone through some adversity through all this, and he's had two really impressive starts for us."
Wood was able to settle down after giving up extra-base hits to Altuve and Lowrie.
"The first batter of the ballgame, [Altuve] hits a home run, and I guess everything is out of the way," Wood said. "You've already given up a hit, you've already given up a home run, so there's not much left to do but bear down and get after it."
Soriano tied the game with a leadoff home run in the fourth, his fourth blast in the last eight games after going homerless in the first 30.
"We found out how far he can hit a baseball -- it's about 600 feet," Astros starter J.A. Happ said. "I didn't want to put guys on base. I was just trying to be aggressive. He obviously got that one."
Wood hit a one-out double in the third, but he was stranded as Castro struck out to end the inning. It was a tough night for the shortstop.
"It's his third year in the league," Soriano said of Castro, who fanned four times for the second time in his young career. "He'll figure it out. It happened to him last year, too. When you get out of the slump, you become a better player. I hope when he comes out, he'll be a better player."
With the game tied at 1 in the sixth, Wood walked Justin Maxwell and was lifted after throwing 97 pitches. Maxwell moved up on an errant pickoff attempt by reliever Shawn Camp, who walked Carlos Lee. Martinez smacked a go-ahead RBI single to center.
Wood was mad at himself for the walk.
"I thought it was a good outing, but that two-out walk ended up losing the game," he said.
Soriano made a nice defensive play in the sixth when he robbed Lowrie of a potential hit. As the left fielder got to his feet, he kissed the ball. Maybe next time, he'll get that three-run homer.
"I've started hitting homers, but it's not enough to win," Soriano said. "It's better to win some games. I don't care about my homers. I've been doing that for 12 years. It's more important to get the win. I don't know what we have to do to win one game and hit more. So far, we're struggling and not getting hits. We've got to work more and try to do the best we can to win some games."

I think it's the same Joshua but I'm not sure. I can only find one Joshua Vansciver at that time and in that region.
The problem now is that I have conflicting data. He was listed on the June 1880 Federal Census, 10 days after he died.
I'll try the death cert.

Camden (N.J.) Woodrow Wilson four-star receiver Andrey Baskin took a lone official to Syracuse in December. The 6-foot-3, 192-pounder still has the Orangemen leading for his services, but Tennessee is in the mix. With just a couple weeks to go before Signing Day has Baskin scheduled a visit to Knoxville?
"I'm still considering them, but I'm probably not going to take an official visit there," he said. "I like them a lot though because of the way they run their offense, it's really nice. Also all the coaches and players are great people to be around."
Meanwhile, Baskin appears to be really favoring Syracuse.

"There's just something about them and they're becoming a good team," he said. "I really feel at home up there and the offense fits me well too."
Though he doesn't look like he'll be taking another official, the Rivals250 prospect confirmed he still plans to wait it out and make a decision on Signing Day.

Subject: [ILFRANKL] BAUER, DOROTHY l (JONES) 1932-2008
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 18:54:30 -0600
Dorothy Louise Bauer
Benton, IL
After a long battle with Parkinsons disease,
Dorothy Louise Bauer passed away Thursday November 20th
2008. Until the very end of her life, she touched many
lives and true to her profession was teaching those
nearest her lessons well never forget.
Dorothy was born in Benton on September 14, 1932 to
Zelphia and Vern Jones. She graduated from Benton High
School (Class of 1950) and against the wishes of her
father, attended the University of Illinois as did her
brothers Harold (Class of 47) and Elmer (Class of 49),
graduating in 1954 with a Bachelor of Arts from the
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Her teaching career
began in 1954 in Baltimore Maryland, but most remember her
27+ years as a middle school English, grammar and reading
instructor for the Benton Consolidated School District 47.
Along the way, she taught over 4,000 students, touching
us with her wit and her passion. She did not suffer fools
gladly or tolerate rudeness as any one who remembers
copying a page from the dictionary under her careful
direction can well attest. Dorothy was instrumental in
developing several innovative programs including an
Independent Study Program for gifted students and a Team
Operational Planning program (TOPS). She coached the 8th
grade Scholar Bowl Team and sponsored the annual Spelling
Contest for the Middle School. A study room has been
dedicated in her honor at the Benton Public Library
recognizing the time she and her students spent at the
library and her love of reading.
Along the way, she demonstrated commitment to her
fellow teachers by first serving as President of the
Benton Teachers Association (early 70s) and later, as
President of the Benton Federation of Teachers AFL-CIO
(1981-1982). During her tenure, the District 47 teachers
were always among the best compensated in Southern
Illinois a great source of pride for her and testament
to her negotiating skill. Dorothy also served on the
Southern Illinois Reading Council, the Illinois Council of
English Teachers, the National Association of Middle
Schools and the International Reading Association. Prior
to retiring from teaching in 1990, she served as District
Representative for the Association of Illinois Middle
Away from the Middle School, Dorothy showed her love
for her hometown through her service at the First Baptist
Church, the Benton Community Park District, and the Benton
Civic Center. Dorothy was always willing to challenge the
status quo. For example, the First Baptist Church of
Benton was founded in 1841 and did not have a woman serve
on its Board of Deacons until 1978 when she and Golda
Cavaness were elected. She also served as Sunday School
Superintendent, Vacation Bible School Director, Sunday
School Teacher and Church Clerk.
Saying for years Benton needs its own park,
Dorothy was a leader in the formation of the Benton
Community Park District. She served on its Board as Vice
President from its inception in 1974 through the mid 80s
and then again from 1990 until her husband David picked up
the mantel in 1996. Dorothys passion for the Park has
created a playground children from all over Southern
Illinois have visited and enjoyed.
In April 1990, she was appointed Executive Director
of the newly formed Benton Civic Center Authority.
Dorothys investment of time and talent in her community
was formally recognized in November 1990 when she was
named Citizen of the Year by the Benton Area Chamber of
Commerce. She said that night, Benton always came first
and no matter where Dave and I have traveled, Ive always
been proud to call it my hometown.
Dorothy first met her husband-to-be David when they
were attending the third grade at Webster Grade School.
They dated on and off again through high school before
both headed north to attend the University of Illinois.
They were married June 12, 1954 the week before
receiving their undergraduate degrees. Later in 1954, she
went with Lt. David Bauer to Germany where they enjoyed
three eventful years traveling the Continent, surviving
the October Revolution and bearing their first child,
Brian. After their tour in the military, they settled in
St. Louis in 1958 where David began his career in banking
and they had their second child, Paula. In the fall of
1961, they seized on the opportunity to move back their
hometown where their third child Valerie was born. Their
life-long love affair has been apparent to all who knew
them or witnessed their interaction at public events.
Away from the public eye, Dorothy was an attentive
and loving wife, mother and grandmother. She passed her
love of reading to her children and grandchildren. She
valued vacations and traveling and included her extended
family on many of the adventures on land and sea. She
enjoyed entertaining family and friends just ask the
Rinky-Dinks, the Pinochle or Bridge Club, the
Designers Dozen, the Investment Club or anyone who
joined her for birthday, Thanksgiving or Christmas Holiday
Dorothy precedes David, their son Brian Bauer (his
wife Patricia), daughters Paula Bauer (partner Faye
Licata) and Valerie Sansing (husband John Sansing) as well
as eight grandchildren Douglas, Gregory, Kyle and
Elizabeth (Brian and Pat), Courtney and Cameron (Paula and
Faye), Aubrey and Jenna (Valerie and John), and her
brother Harold Jones (his wife Carol). She was preceded
in death by her mother (1987) and father (1960) as well as
her brother Elmer (1966).
Visitation will be held on Monday November 24th from
5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Hobbs Johnson Funeral Home,
301 South Main, Benton (438-8711)
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on
Tuesday November 25th at the First Baptist Church of
Benton, 201 South Main, (438-7661) with Reverends Valerie
Sansing and Charles Klassen officiating.
Gifts honoring Dorothys life can be made to the
Bauer Family Foundation for the benefit of the Benton Park
District through the Southern Illinois Community
Foundation or to the First Baptist Church of Benton.

Have you been considering hiring your personal security? A personal security guard might come in handy for celebrities, political figures or people who are keen on their private securities or due to threats to one's safety. Before you do here is everything you need to know about successfully hiring your personal security guard.
1. You will need to do a background check on the person or firm your hiring. A background check is essential to avoid hiring criminals who might increase rather than decrease your security. The background check may include such issues as criminal records, their upbringing and how they have dwelt with their previous clients.
2. The skill set of security personnel you want to hire. The person you are to hire need to demonstrate that they have the skills necessary to execute the duty of protecting you, such skills include driving, computer skills, and martial arts.
3. Cost consideration. You will need to consider the amount of money you are willing to spend on hiring personal security. The cost should be reasonable and affordable to you while not forgetting the quality of service offered. Hiring an armed security guard will cost you more than hiring an unarmed security guard.
4. Security firms offer different categories of protection. Thus you need to decide on what best suit you. Standard types may include executive protection, talent protection among others. Thus you will need to find out with your preferred security firm on the specifics of each category before deciding on which category best caters to your needs.
5. Security personnel experience is also an important consideration. Find out from your applicant about their experience and major projects they have worked on. Their experience level will help you gauge their suitability and ability to serve your specific needs.
6. Ensure that the security firm and personnel have the relevant certification required to operate as a security company or staff. Certification will vary from country to country hence the need to research on the certification required. Certification ensures you get the best service and value for your money.
7. Physique considerations. You will need to hire a person whose physique you are comfortable as you will be spending a lot of time with your security person. You will thus need to find a person whose body shape and size you are comfortable with. This is all you need to know about hiring your personal security. This will ensure success in hiring your safety personnel.

Giants fans are loud. But one woman has the biggest voice at the ballpark.
Renel Brooks-Moon is the woman behind the smooth voice you hear over the loudspeakers. She knows how to talk the fans into a frenzy. She's been at the microphone for the Giants for 10 years and says her second World Series feels extra special.
Brooks-Moon says practice, focus and, of course, good luck charms keep her sharp. She always has throat lozenges nearby and most importantly, a Negro League figurine. It's a reminder of her roots and how far she has come to be sitting in the press booth. During the postseason, you won't find her without her now-lucky orange trenchcoat.
The San Francisco favorite says the team is full of loveable characters. Brooks-Moon enjoys saying Juan Uribe's name best.
As for a World Series victory, Brooks-Moon isn't making predictions but says good things are waiting for the team.
San Francisco fans can't wait to hear that voice holler: "The World Series champion San Francisco Giants!"

OCEANSIDE -- The back of Palmquist Elementary School, an area once filled with jungle gyms, monkey bars and other playground equipment, is a lot that is mostly filled with sand.
On Wednesday afternoon, a set of swings and a slide stood in one corner of the lot behind the school, along with a few metal, anchored rectangles in the ground that students could use to do some pull-ups.
In recent years, according to a parent and Principal Shelly Morr, district officials have had to remove more and more of the aging equipment to comply with safety laws. A few children were hurt using some of the apparatuses intended for climbing, said Morr.
Now, the Palmquist Playground Committee, a group started last year by the Palmquist Parent-Teachers Organization, is hoping to breathe life into the school's playgrounds by raising about $122,000 to buy safe equipment, Morr said, adding that district officials don't have funds available to replace the equipment.
The committee is holding its next fundraising event from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 14, on the school's California Street campus. The committee is planning a car show and carnival with arts and crafts and games for kids. There will be a DJ, vendors and food for sale from the Hunter Steakhouse.
The committee is hoping to raise $64,000 to buy the playground equipment and $68,000 to have it installed. The committee has raised some $10,000 so far, Morr said.
District officials have agreed to pay the $84,000 that would be needed to resurface the area where the equipment would be installed, according to Morr, as long as the committee can raise the money to buy the equipment.
Morr said contractor's drawings shows large red and blue playground equipment filled with slides and chutes, swings, platforms and bars that she hopes the students will be able to use next year.
When the committee searched for suitable equipment to buy, Morr said it wanted playground equipment that would encourage children to be active.
"We were looking for playground equipment that would make people move instead of equipment just for hanging on," Morr said.
Committee member Carrie Brooks said the group sought bids from contractors that could provide a suitable cost-efficient design, and that it settled on Miracle Playground Sales. But Brooks said district administrators may require a formal bidding process before a contractor is officially selected. Brooks said the estimate from Miracle provided a realistic fundraising goal for the committee.
Moor said the playground equipment that Brooks and other parents want to replace is at least three decades old -- some of it may even date to 1960 when the school was built.
To Brooks and Morr, raising money for a playground doesn't just affect Palmquist's 650 students, but the entire community. Both women said the school is an area without a park.
Brooks hopes city officials can find a way to assist the effort because it provides public services to families besides those with children at Palmquist.
"It makes sense for schools to have a cooperative situation," said Brooks.

His mission: to build a media sales consulting practice from the ground up using the unique insights Jason had discovered in his first radio station. The new company's client list and revenues grew quickly as Haughton's talent for marketing strategies and sales tactics connected with decision-makers. By the end of the second year, Haughton had propelled the Jennings organization past all other media consultants in America.
For twenty years Haughton has tested and modified every strategy and tactic to make sure the Jennings consulting practice had the depth of real world experiences that so many consultants lack. Along the way he has equally immersed himself in the academic study of business disciplines believing that "even a dwarf standing on the shoulders of a giant will see further than the giant by himself."
Today Jennings and Haughton consult internationally and have been applauded by clients representing every industry classification, from all over North America, Australia-Asia, and Europe.
