There must be someone to sign for a courier delivery at the supplied delivery address. If you are out a card will be left but only where the address does not have a shared entrance/ intercom. The card will indicate what to do to have your goods re-delivered. If a card cannot be left at the delivery address, your goods will be left at your local depot and we will need to contact you to find out when to re-deliver. If you are out a second time the goods will be returned to us. Unfortunately, if we have to re-send the goods via the courier, we will have to charge you again for postage as we will be charged again. We may also be charged to have the goods stored at your local depot or returned to us. We would have to pass this cost on to you. Orders can be picked up from the local depot if you miss the second delivery.
By signing for your goods you are agreeing that they have arrived intact and undamaged. You must, however, notify us of any damage by 2pm the next day so we can claim from the courier and get them to pay for the replacement. We require you to take a picture of the damaged item and packaging and email it to us. We will usually arrange for the damaged item to be collected from you and returned to us at which point we can send a replacement.
If you pay for an Express 2 day service but receive your item within the standard delivery time-frame of 4 days, we will refund the difference between the Express and Standard delivery charge (usually £2) to you - unless the delay is due to circumstances beyond our control E.g. Parcel mis-sort, bad weather, incorrect postcode or incomplete address given etc.
Lost Royal Mail/Airmail items: If an item posted by Royal Mail (not courier) does not arrive we will need to wait 15 working days (from the due date of delivery) for UK 1st class parcels, 20 working days (from the due date of delivery) for European Airmail parcels and 25 working days (from the due date of delivery) for Rest of the World before Royal Mail agree it is lost and not simply delayed. We will then instigate a claim with Royal Mail. Part of the process may involve Royal Mail contacting you to confirm that you have not received the parcel. We can only refund you once our claim with Royal Mail has been settled. (From years of experience, the parcels usually turn up within the time-frame). Airmail is not a trackable service but you can pay £5.40 extra per parcel for Airsure which is trackable. Courier items: Courier parcels rarely go missing as it is a fully tracked service! On the one occasion that something did go missing we put a stop to the delivery of that consignment and sent a replacement within 2 days. If you give us an incorrect address/postcode or missing parts to an address and the parcel is delayed or goes missing, Everlasting Castings will not be held responsible. The alphabetical letters in a postcode must be in uppercase as this is the format required by all of our couriers. We have our sender address on every parcel so a parcel is likely to be returned to us rather than disappear! Please ensure that if the Delivery Address is different to the invoice/registered bank card address that you actually fill in the Delivery address boxes at checkout.
Impression kits are sent out and returned for free via 1st class post. Your finished items should normally be sent out by Royal Mail's Special Delivery Next Day service 6-12 days after the useable fingerprint impressions and completed order form are returned to us. During busier times or postal strikes this time may increase but we will keep you informed. This service includes insurance for up to £500. Individual charms will be sent via Royal Mail Recorded delivery. If you have a special date that you need an item for, please let us know when you place your order. You may also like to check that your impression has arrived back with us in time for your deadline as we do not routinely inform you of this. If an item is lost or damaged we would explain the process of how to claim from Royal Mail and provide you with an invoice.

Sallie Baugh cook hungered for education as a young girl. She completed her 8th Grade Education in 1914. Her parents saw to it that the boys in her family of sixteen children attended high school, but there was not the money to send a girl. The oldest son, John David Baugh, along with his wife offered to send one girl to high school if she would live in his home and help his wife with the boarders. The four sisters who were interested in high school got together and drew straws. Unfortunately, Sallie did not pick the winning straw. Her oldes sister did. Sallie did the next best thing, she opted to repeat Eighth Grade beyond her 1914 graduation from the Ohio County one room school. A letter from her daughter, Norma, stated that she attended the Ohio County school until Sallie Baugh was twenty years of age the certificate was issued in 1914 (although she continued school until age 20) because in the next session a high school teacher was provided to the school and he wouldn't let her take the classes unless she had received the 8th grade certificate.

A Hopedale man, accused by police of being a drug dealer, was released on minimum bail after his arraignment on Monday when his attorney argued the evidence against him was "speculation."
A Hopedale man, accused by police of being a drug dealer, was released on minimum bail after his arraignment on Monday when his attorney argued the evidence against him was "speculation."
Joseph Ruggiero, 20, of 27 Hill St., was arrested last Thursday after a month-long police investigation led to a search of his home, where less than an ounce of marijuana and $21,460 cash were seized as evidence.
After the assistant district attorney argued for $1,000 bail based on the large sum on money found in the defendant's home, Ruggiero's attorney, Patrick Troy, argued the case was all speculation.
"I don't see the cash seized in his home as evidence of guilt," Troy said. Troy added police traced a package to Ruggiero's home, but "came up empty."
Judge Robert Calagione agreed to keep Ruggiero's bail at the $200 he posted on Thursday.
Hopedale Detective Marco Lima wrote in his report that he first suspected Ruggiero of distributing marijuana after arresting his brother on driving charges and seeing some suspicious text messages.
A confidential source alerted police a few months later to suspicious people coming and going from 27 Hill St., Lima wrote.
After seeing a charge from Milford of distributing a Class D substance (marijuana) continued without finding in 2010 on Ruggerio's record, Lima contacted police in Milford. Detective Jay Ball told Lima two confidential sources had informed him that Ruggerio was receiving marijuana through the mail from his brother in California.
A U.S. Postal inspector stopped the next package to Ruggiero, coming from Ukiah, Calif., and the State Police K-9 unit was called in to inspect it, Lima wrote. After finding evidence of illegal narcotics, the inspector delivered the package to Ruggiero and police obtained a search warrant for his home.
Police found a small amount of marijuana on the kitchen counter, a digital scale, several boxes of plastic bags, a vacuum sealer, several black plastic totes with marijuana residue and large amounts of cash "packed in a manner consistent with selling narcotics."
Police also seized four cell phones, described as "throw away phones consistent with the sale of narcotics," and five high-end wristwatches, valued at $200 to $700 apiece.
In the package, police found an empty, screwed-shut wooden box, believed to be used for sending payments to a supplier, Lima said.
Ruggiero is charged with possession of a Class D substance (marijuana), a subsequent offense of possession with intent to distribute a Class D substance and a conspiracy to violate the drug law. He is due back in court on Aug. 22 for a pre-trial hearing.

We interrupt Captaingate to bring some news: Goalie Ray Emery will make his second straight start Tuesday when the Flyers host Columbus.
Emery, in his first NHL appearance since Dec. 5, wasn't sharp in a 5-3 loss in Washington Sunday.
Coach Peter Laviolette defended Emery's performance.
"Ray has to get back in there and get some games, and this is an opportunity for him to jump right back in there," the coach said after Monday's practice in Voorhees. "We need to do a little better job of taking care of the puck in front of him. Some of those goals, we put him in a bad position _ the ones that go cross ice, the backdoor goals are hard to handle, breakaways, a penalty shot against (Alex) Ovechkin. We want to give him a better game in front of him."
On Tuesday, the Flyers start a critical six-game homestand, their longest of the season.
"These six games could potentially make or break our season," center Jeff Carter said.
* * * * * * * * * *
Ian Laperriere, observing the media flap with Mike Richards, walked through the locker room making peace signs with his fingers. "Peace and love. Let's all be friends here," he said with a toothless smile.
* * * * * * * * * * *
About 1,500 tickets remain for Tuesday's game against Ken Hitchcock's Blue Jackets. Fans will be given Orange Crush baseball caps.

Bethany: " Is your house on fire, Clark?"
Bethany: " Is your house on fire, Clark?"
Clark: "No, Aunt Bethany, those are the Christmas lights."
- From "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" (1989)
Christmas is the season of lights, and almost every neighborhood has at least one house that does it up right. Most lights are up for only a few weeks to a month at most.
A pet peeve of ours is when people leave them up well after the holidays are over. My family and I usually put up our Christmas lights the weekend after Thanksgiving (we're running a little late this year), and take them down around New Year's Day. I guess it's only natural to want to have some beauty and light to color and warm winter's early nights. It's also natural people would want to record the festive mood in a photo. The problem is the pictures don't always capture the beauty of the lights. Some are under- or over-exposed, while others can be blurry. There are a few tips that you can use to preserve the spirit of the season.
Invariably you'll be shooting when it's fairly dark, which means a slow shutter speed. Most of the blurriness comes from camera shake or movement of the camera. You may think that you're holding the camera steady, but it's very difficult to do so. Every little bit of movement is magnified the slower the shutter speed. Whether you're using a DSLR or a point-and-shoot, a good sturdy tripod provides a good base to help keep your camera still. (If you're using a phone camera, you may have to modify it or the tripod - as easy as using some adhesive tape of Velcro - to hold it still.)
You can use a high ISO (1600 to 6400) so that you can actually use a shutter speed high enough to hand-hold the camera, but the tradeoff is added noise in the picture. By using a lower ISO (100 to 400) the noise levels are negligible.
An aperture of around f/8 or f/11 or so will give you a good depth of field (especially if you have elements in both the foreground and background you want in focus). Your shutter speeds will be slow, about two to 10 seconds (depending on your ISO and the intensity of the lights), but if you're using the aforementioned tripod, it shouldn't be a problem.
What you don't want is to have the lights as little pinpricks of color. Overexposing the lights a bit gives them that holiday glow and will help to illuminate the house and give it more definition and detail. Go ahead and "chimp" or check the image in the camera's monitor to confirm your exposures.
The flash will be either ineffective (if you're too far away from the lights) or wash out the lights (if you're too close). Either way, leave it in your camera bag or at home. If it's built-in to your camera, turn it off. (The one exception is if you're taking a picture with people in it and using the lights as a backdrop.)
Shooting just after sunset, or in the so-called "blue hour," will help give some detail and color in the sky. If you miss it, don't worry, it will just mean that the sky will be an inky black, which some people may even prefer.
It can be cold this time of year, so dress warmly and go with a friend or a family member. There's safety in numbers and it's nice to have someone to pass the time with during the long exposures. They can even help you lug around your tripod.
So, whether it's on your own house or another, go out and capture the lights so you can remember and reminisce without having to keep them up long after they've worn out their welcome.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — In the final day of campaigning to host the 2020 Olympics, Madrid promoted its bid Friday as one based on a "responsible budget" that can become the model for future games.
Madrid began the final push by the three cities leading to Saturday's vote by International Olympic Committee members. Tokyo and Istanbul were scheduled for news conferences later in the day.
"We believe that having a responsible budget represents the new way to understand the games," Madrid Mayor Ana Botella said. "We believe that it's a new model to organize the games at a time marked by political and economic turbulence around the world."
Spain's economic struggles, highlighted by a 27 percent unemployment rate, have been seen as the main weakness of Madrid's bid. Tokyo has fending off questions about the radioactive leak in the Fukushima nuclear plant, while Istanbul has had to deal with concerns about the civil war in neighboring Syria.
Madrid officials have been trying to assure IOC members that the economic problems don't pose a significant challenge.
"We are proposing a new model of games which are adjusted to the current times," Botella said. "We believe that having this type of budget is something really good for the future because otherwise there would be many cities in the world which would not be capable of hosting the games."
Madrid is making its third straight attempt to win the bid. It says it has one of the lowest Olympic budgets ever and that 80 percent of venues are in place in a compact layout.
"We are trying to show that our candidacy is adjusting to what the Olympic movement wants," Madrid bid leader Alejandro Blanco said.
Botella said Spain's three layers of government will have to spend a total of $2 billion in the next seven years, "which is perfectly possible knowing that conditions in Spain are beginning to improve."
The 2014 Sochi Games will be the most expensive in Olympic history.
"We have a new model of games which could become the norm in the world that we live now," Botella said.

CropLife America (CLA) and Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment (RISE) have filed a legal challenge seeking to broaden the scope of the recent Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) final rule that clarifies when pesticides can be applied without first obtaining a Clean Water Act (CWA) permit.
The association was joined in its efforts by crop protection companies and allied agricultural associations including BASF, FMC, Syngenta, Bayer CropScience, Delta Council, Cotton Council, Illinois Fertilizer & Chemical Association, Agribusiness Association of Iowa and Southern Crop Production Association, all of which are challenging the rule.
"The EPA rule, while a step in the right direction, only applies to aquatic uses and forest canopy applications of pesticides," said Jay Vroom, president and CEO of CropLife America. "Our challenge to the EPA is to expand the rule to all pesticides, including production agricultural uses of beneficial crop protection products and other essential uses of pesticides."
"Broadening the rule would provide needed assurance to farmers and ranchers who follow the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) in applying pesticides that they will not need a CWA permit," Vroom added.
CLA has maintained that FIFRA - the primary law governing the application of pesticides -effectively regulates pesticide applications on, over and near "waters of the U.S." Further, CLA takes the position that FIFRA regulation is sufficient to ensure the safety of all pesticide uses, not just those subject to EPA's new rule. Labeling requirements under FIFRA are imposed to protect human health and the environment. This position was supported by others in the agricultural community and by public health officials in the two rounds of public comments solicited by the EPA on this issue.
An additional factor behind the CLA challenge is that, if followed, EPA's final rule would only remove a portion of the Clean Water Act's ambiguity regarding the scope of NPDES permitting requirements, leaving a wide gray area concerning most activities.
CLA will proceed through the appropriate judicial channels to continue to represent the interest of growers and commodity groups.

LAKELAND | With gasoline inventories at their highest levels in nearly two years, prices at the pump should begin to decline in coming weeks, industry analysts say.
LAKELAND | With gasoline inventories at their highest levels in nearly two years, prices at the pump should begin to decline in coming weeks, industry analysts say.
That forecast runs counter to a trend in recent years that shows U.S. retail gasoline prices generally spike between Christmas Day and mid-January, according to Chicago-based GasBuddy.com.
Several factors have come into play that should begin to drive down pump prices, which have increased over the past month in the Tampa Bay region to an average $3.364 a gallon Thursday from $3.244 a gallon, according to AAA's Daily Fuel Gauge Report.
That report does not track prices in the Lakeland-Winter Haven area, but an informal survey Thursday showed prices for a gallon of unleaded fuel hovering in the range of $3.379 to $3.399.
A projected decline in gas prices is bolstered by news from the U.S. Department of Energy indicating a massive buildup in gasoline inventory. The glut is due in part to lower-than-expected consumer demand, according to Jessica Brady, a spokeswoman for AAA, The Auto Club Group in Tampa.
"We have seen pretty lackluster demand numbers for the second half of 2012," she said. "We have seen gas stockpiles increase over the past couple of weeks. We could see gas prices stabilize or retreat by the end of January."
A tepid economy and more fuel-efficient cars have helped drive U.S. gasoline consumption back down to 2002 levels. It isn't expected to rise this year or next, according to the Energy Department.
That means the U.S. will need to import less oil, which will increase global supplies and help tamp down prices somewhat.
The nation's inventory of gasoline now stands at 233.1 million barrels, an increase of 16.1 million barrels over the previous month and the highest point recorded since February 2011, according to analysts for GasBuddy.com, which tracks gasoline prices at more than 140,000 gasoline stations in the U.S. and Canada.
Falling consumer demand coincides with an increase in refinery output after months of operating below capacity because of disruptions such as Hurricane Isaac and riots at American embassies throughout the Middle East.
As a result of the surplus, retail prices should start falling in the next week to two weeks, said Gregg Laskoski, a senior petroleum analyst for the Tampa office of GasBuddy.com.
How low prices will go is anybody's guess, he said. "I don't have enough data to give a comparison to another point in time that would be comparable.
"We see crude oil trading today (Thursday) above $94 a barrel," he said, "and that's $6 or $7 more than they were trading on Christmas. That rise in crude oil can work against consumers, but what we believe can nullify that in the short term is this significant reserve."
While pump prices have been on the rise in recent weeks, the price of a gallon of unleaded is roughly where it stood a year ago when the national average was $3.372, and the Florida average was $3.436.
A number of motorists filling their tanks early Thursday morning seemed oblivious to the roller-coaster cycle of gasoline prices.
"I care but I try not to pay attention," said Sean Simms, 17, a senior at Lake Gibson High School. "I normally don't pay attention (to prices) because I need it."
Fran Tims, 83, of Lakeland, was similarly detached from the cost of gas as she refueled at a Sunoco station in north Lakeland, though she did pay in cash to save a few cents.
"I always just figure I've got to have it, so I really don't pay attention," Tims said, laughing. "When it's really high I do. I wish they would bring it down a bit."
Falling consumer demand for petroleum is due in part to the faltering economy, as unemployment remains high and more and more people are looking to save money, the AAA's Brady said.
People are bringing lunch to work instead of driving to eat out, and they're renting movies instead of driving to the theater, she said. "People have made major accommodations."
The auto club projected a slight increase in holiday travel by car between Thanksgiving and the New Year holiday, but the data has yet to be compiled, Brady said. "We had our forecast but I have not seen actual numbers. It takes awhile to compile them."
Forecasters caution that they can't predict recurring factors like Middle East tensions, refinery problems or hurricanes along the U.S. Gulf Coast — in other words, the same events that caused gasoline prices to spike in 2011 and 2012. Any or all of those troubles could crop up again in 2013 and push pump prices above last year's record average of $3.63 a gallon.
The government expected gas to average about $3 during 2011. Then came the Arab Spring, which included the shutdown of Libya's oil production. Oil prices shot up, and gasoline averaged $3.53 for the year. The government's forecast for last year also turned out to be too low, by 18 cents per gallon.
Meanwhile, consumers like Aaron James, 77, of Polk City, remain reconciled to prices at the pump inching ever higher over time.
"It goes down a few cents then it bounces up a whole bunch," he said, topping off the 150-gallon tank on his RV Thursday morning at a Chevron on State Road 33 in Polk City.
"When it gets to the point where I worry about that (the price of fuel) I'll get rid of it," James said.

California congressional Republicans escalated the anti-drought pressure Wednesday, introducing an ambitious California water bill that includes controversial provisions immediately dismissed by the state's two Democratic senators.
Authored by San Joaquin Valley lawmakers, but backed by the state's united GOP House delegation, the far-reaching water package would repeal a San Joaquin River restoration program, lengthen irrigation contracts and cap the delivery of water for environmental purposes, among many other provisions.
And within hours of its introduction, the bill also incited bad blood, harsh words and doubts about its long-term prospects.
"It's a comprehensive bill," Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., said in an interview Wednesday. "It's what we have to do to fix the state's water problem."
Freshman Rep. David Valadao, R-Calif. took the lead and joined with Nunes and House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy in crafting the new legislation, following their failed effort earlier this week to add California water language to a big farm bill.
"I, along with my Central Valley colleagues, will do everything in my power to ensure a real solution at the federal level." Valadao said in a statement.
But the new legislation, dubbed the Sacramento-San Joaquin Valley Emergency Water Delivery Act, also goes much further than the earlier House language proposed at the last minute for the farm bill, which had already raised Senate hackles.
The previous House water language, for instance, would have temporarily halted through 2015 a program to restore San Joaquin River water flows and salmon population below Friant Dam. The new House bill would permanently repeal the river restoration and replace it with something significantly smaller.
Opponents say the Republican efforts would undermine endangered species, threaten crucial habitats and wreck delicate compromises reached in the past, all while steering more Northern California water to San Joaquin Valley farms.
"The Republicans continue to play politics with this tragic drought rather than bringing us all together to address this problem," said Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer.
Boxer's Democratic colleague, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, voiced her own skepticism about the House effort that so far has remained confined to Republican ranks. Feinstein is generally considered closer than Boxer to Valley agricultural interests, and she has brokered past California water deals, making her role particularly crucial.
"Today's bill is another irresponsible proposal that puts politics ahead of the needs of California, and candidly, it's very disappointing," Feinstein said in a statement, adding that the House bill "is disingenuous, it is irresponsible and it is dangerous."
Feinstein has indicated that she plans to introduce her own California water bill, but has not yet revealed details. She has, however, previously made clear her commitment to the full San Joaquin River restoration program, which she shepherded through the Senate.
"Instead of working productively for solutions, Valley Republicans tossed aside their own new ideas and returned to the broken ideas they have championed for nearly three years," Feinstein said.
The new, approximately 68-page House bill closely resembles legislation authored by Nunes during the last Congress, reinforced by several additional provisions. The prior bill passed the House in early 2012 on a largely party line vote, and over the objections of most Northern California legislators. It then sank without a trace in the Senate.
House Republicans say they intend to pass the new water bill with dispatch, possibly as part of other legislation, and thereby force the Senate to respond or offer an alternative. With the leadership backing of McCarthy, and House Speaker John Boehner's recent public pronouncements in arid Bakersfield about the California drought, the House tracks appear greased.
"Our goal is to move it as quickly as possible," Nunes said Wednesday. "We're in an emergency situation."
A bill opponent, Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif., said in an interview Wednesday he will "begin working as feverishly" as possible to resist the bill that he nonetheless expects to see on the House floor next week.
"It is, frankly, irresponsible to undertake a complete restructuring of California water without a hearing, and within a week of it being introduced," Garamendi said, adding that "it affects every Californian."
The last time the House or Senate held a hearing on similar California water proposals was in June 2011, when water conditions were not as dire. Since then, California Gov. Jerry Brown has formally declared a state drought
Some of the new House bill provisions would unsettle the Central Valley Project Improvement Act, a 1992 law loathed by many Valley farmers. The new bill, for instance, would restore 40-year irrigation contracts for CVP customers and effectively mandate their renewal. The 1992 law limited irrigation contracts to 25 years and leaves open the possibility they might not be renewed.
The new bill would streamline the usual environmental reviews required for California water projects, and cap at 800,000 acre-feet the amount of water devoted under the 1992 CVP law to fish, wildlife and habitat.
Other provisions would explicitly scale back current environmental protections. The new bill, for instance, would for the first time roll back wild-and-scenic river status on a portion of the Merced River, in order to allow increased storage in Lake McClure. In another controversial proposal that's been floated before, the bill would allow federal officials to count hatchery spawned salmon in determining whether the fish need federal endangered species protection.

My experience with computer programming spans a little over 12 years, from classes in high school, college, and now working professionally as a Software Developer. My approach when teaching any technical subject is to break something down into the fundamentals in order to build a foundation. From there, once those fundamentals are mastered, it makes it a lot easier to transition between different languages and software design patterns.
I have previous experience tutoring online and have been able to successfully help multiple students understand fundamental concepts. I look forward to working with you!

The Cast of "Allergist's Wife" Plays It Straight
If you ask the cast of Charles Busch's The Tale of the Allergist's Wife, which will open Intrepid's 2014 Staged Reading Series at the Encinitas Library this evening, how rehearsals have been going, you will find that they've all had a similar experience.
"I'm just trying to get through the scenes without laughing," says Linda Libby, who will be playing Marjorie Taub, the title character of the play. "It's very unprofessional."
Linda joins a stellar cast this evening in this story about an Upper West Side socialite who craves the richness of a life filled with culture and substance, yet finds herself paralyzed by her own neurosis. Trina Kaplan portrays Marjorie's mother, Frieda, and Gabriel Mario Cornejo, will break from his stage direction duties to step in as Mohammed, the doorman. Jill Drexler will play Lee Green, a childhood friend who arrives on Marjorie's doorstep. Ruff Yeager rounds out the cast as Dr. Ira Taub, Marjorie's allergist husband.
While most of these actors are veterans of Intrepid's Reading Series, this marks Jill and Gabriel's debut.
"We've all been wanting to work together for a long time," says Jill with a smile.
Ruff Yeager, who also sits on Intrepid's Staged Reading Committee and will direct tonight's reading, says that picking this play to open this year's series was not a difficult choice.
"It's a funny play with a lot of surprises," he says. "I think audiences will be comforted by the familiarity of the family dynamics. The fun of this script is watching this family, who thinks they are very balanced, become completely unbalanced."
"We get to watch characters go places that most people would never go, even though they might entertain the idea," says Linda. "Then we get to watch them work out how life continues after that. There's a passionate neurosis about each of these characters."
Passion is the name of the game in this "tale," and even though the issues at hand may seem trifling to an outside audience, the ferocity with which these characters pursue their needs inspires both awe as well as humor.
This can be both great fun and a great challenge for an actor, however.
"The lines are familiar, ones you would hear in your own home," says Trina. "But one thing you don't want to do is play the comedy."
"Charles Busch is a master," says Ruff. "You have to play the reality of the situation and the high stakes that are written in. The comedy takes care of itself."
With a note of warning, the cast also clarifies that the humor can lean towards mature audiences. Trina is frank about how many "F-bombs" she uses during the course of the play.
"That's Yiddish, right?" Gabriel jokes.
"Also," chimes in Ruff, "clothing will be removed. We can't tell you what clothing, though."
With all of these laughs, it's hard to imagine this cast having more fun performing this reading than they are having in rehearsals. But if there's one thing aside from the humor that we can expect from this play, they say, it's the surprises.
The Tale of the Allergist's Wife by Charles Busch, a staged reading, will be held at the Encinitas Library, 540 Cornish Drive. Monday, January 27. 6:30 pm complimentary wine/appetizer reception. 7:00 pm reading. Please rsvp to firstname.lastname@example.com and pay with cash/check at the door or purchase tickets in advance. $15.

NEW CASTLE, N.Y. - Two burglaries a month apart in Chappaqua and Millwood might be connected, New Castle police said.
Residents of Asian descent were the victims of a Nov. 5 burglary at Surrey Lane in Millwood and a Monday burglary at Chappaqua Mountain Road in Chappaqua, according to police. Both burglaries occurred during daytime hours.
"In 2010 New Castle Police arrested three burglars that we believe were targeting people of Asian descent," said a statement prepared by Chief Charles Ferry. "Although the investigation is in the preliminary stages, we (want) to warn New Castle residents that it is possible that homes owned by people of Asian descent are again being targeted."
Police ask residents to be watchful and report any suspicious activity to the New Castle Police at 914-238-4422 and to call 911 if there is a crime in progress.
Anybody with information concerning the recent burglaries should call the Detective Division at 914-238-1566.

Bible Text:
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. —Isaiah 53:5
But all the same, the Prophet shows that without the wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ, there is nothing but death in us and that we must certainly look to him for healing. So when we want to partake of the fruit that the death and passion of our Lord Jesus Christ brings us, let us understand that the many vices rooted in our nature are so many wounds and mortal sicknesses, even though they may not be apparent.
If a man thinks he is healthy because he cannot see his sickness, he must be quite out of his mind. Our illnesses may be the more deadly when they are secret. Now besides our deep-rooted sins, there are faults that we commit every day, and which show clearly enough that our nature is perverse and accursed and that we are all perverted. Since then there is in us nothing but spiritual infection and leprosy and that we are corrupt in our iniquities, what shall we do? What remedy is there?
Shall we go seek help from the angels in Paradise? Alas! they can do nothing for us. No, we must come to our Lord Jesus Christ, who was willing to be disfigured from the top of his head even to the sole of his feet and was a mass of wounds, flogged with many stripes and crowned with thorns, nailed and fastened to the cross and pierced through the side.
This is how we are healed; here is our true medicine, with which we must be content, and which we must embrace whole-heartedly, knowing that otherwise we can never have inward peace but must always be tormented and tortured to the extreme, unless Jesus Christ comforts us and appeases God's wrath against us.
When we are certain of that, we have cause to sing his praises, instead of being capable of nothing but trembling and confusion. This, in brief, is what we have to remember from these words of the Prophet. —Sermons
John Calvin was the premier theologian of the Reformation, but also a pious and godly Christian pastor who endeavored throughout his life to point men and women to Christ. We are grateful to Reformation Heritage Books for permission to use John Calvin's Thine Is My Heart as our daily devotional for 2013 on the OPC Web site. You can currently obtain a printed copy of that book from Reformation Heritage Books.
Dr. Joel Beeke, who is editorial director of Reformation Heritage Books, has this to say:
"Calvin shows us the piety of a Reformed theologian who speaks from the heart. Having tasted the goodness and grace of God in Jesus Christ, he pursued piety by seeking to know and do God's will every day. He communed with Christ, practicing repentance, self-denial, and cross-bearing. Moreover, his theology worked itself out in heart-felt, Christ-honoring piety. The selections of this devotional bear this out, and hopefully will be used by God to direct pious hearts in our own day."
These devotional readings from John Calvin were compiled by John H. Kromminga. Be sure to read his "Introduction" to John Calvin's Thine Is My Heart.

Release Date: March 2, 2012
BUFFALO, N.Y. Simulated missions to space have recently begun launching from Jarvis Hall on the University at Buffalo North Campus, thanks to a donation from Exciting Simulations to the UB chapter of Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (UB-SEDS). The company has donated its "Space Shuttle Mission Simulator" as part of its effort to expand educational opportunities for students in science, technology, engineering or math-related (STEM) programs.
In this case, the educational opportunities won't end with students at UB. Twice a month, members of UB-SEDS use hands-on activities to educate and inspire school-aged space buffs at the Buffalo Science Museum as part of the museum's public science educational programs. Traditionally, the UB students have used "Moon Craters," small projectiles that replicate crater formation, and homemade "Rocket Balloons," balloons propelled on strings, to interest students in astronomy and space flight. Now club members will be incorporating the new software into their demonstrations at the museum.
The space simulator replicates many aspects of a real mission to outer space, from external tank separation to the capture of satellites. It also features multiple missions, including several that allow players to dock at the international space station. From take- off to landing at either Kennedy Space Center or Edwards Air Force Base, each simulation can take a player several days to complete, just like authentic flights. For the museum programs, aspiring astronauts will focus only on certain aspects of a mission, such as participating in a space walk or reentering Earth's atmosphere.
Andrew Dianetti, a junior aerospace engineering major in the UB School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and UB-SEDS president, hopes that the flight simulation will help spark an interest in space exploration in the younger students that the club is reaching out to at the museum.
"We used the shuttle simulator for the first time last weekend and it was a huge hit," Dianetti said. "We set it up with a joystick and projector, and everyone, from young kids to parents and grandparents, stopped by to try it out. It fostered a lot of discussion about space and spaceflight as well, which was awesome, as that is one of our goals. It easily was our most popular activity."
UB-SEDS also will bring its hands-on demonstrations and simulator software to youngsters at the Strong National Museum of Play during its annual "In Another Galaxy Weekend, "April 28 and 29, when the museum is devoted to all things Star Wars.
UB-SEDS outreach drives STEM education advancement by following the National Academies' suggestions to improve 21st-century competiveness. A September 2010 report by the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology noted the importance of "individualized and group experiences outside the classroom" in helping to "develop personal connections with the ideas and excitement of STEM fields." The volunteer activities of the UB-SEDS club help to cement these connections by inspiring future astronauts, engineers and astrophysicists from the Western New York region.

Ask The Paris Review
Complexity and Contradiction; Reading AudiobooksBy Lorin Stein
I am an architecture student who is allergic to The Fountainhead. Can you recommend some books to counter with when well-meaning people, upon hearing that I'm studying architecture, ask whether I like it?
Tell them to read Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture, if only for the first sentence: "I like complexity and contradiction in architecture." (I've always loved that beginning.) If you're looking for a novel about passionate architecture students (and what becomes of them), try Peter Stamm's Seven Years. It's not as heroic or hot-blooded as The Fountainhead, but it won't give you hives.
What are your thoughts on audiobooks? I just finished listening to The Fellowship of the Ring as read by Rob Inglis, and his narrative performance—it's so much more than a reading—brought the book to life in a way I never thought possible. It's so nice to be read to, isn't it? And yet it's so rare. (There's no denying it: literary readings are often boring; a good writer does not a good reader make.) And the best thing is, you can listen to audiobooks while running, walking, driving, commuting. Why haven't books on tape become more mainstream? And, as more of a metaphysical question, can I now consider The Fellowship to be something I've "read"?
A friend raised the same question yesterday. She'd just "read" the audiobook of Middlesex—but I say to hell with the scare quotes. If anything, I would guess, you know the text better for having heard it, without the temptation to skim. (But this is only a guess.)
As you say, there is nothing like being read to. And my sense is that audiobooks are in fact very popular. I don't read that way only because reading by sight is so much faster. But when "Selected Shorts" catches me at home, I can't turn it off—even if (as sometimes happens) I don't care much for the story …
Soon we hope to bring you Paris Review stories as audio files—stay tuned! Read More

A High Point man led Thomasville officers on about a 10-mile high-speed chase while traveling in the wrong lanes of Interstate 85 Business Loop on Friday night, said Capt. Mark Kattner of the Thomasville Police Department.
A High Point man led Thomasville officers on about a 10-mile high-speed chase while traveling in the wrong lanes of Interstate 85 Business Loop on Friday night, said Capt. Mark Kattner of the Thomasville Police Department.
A.J. David Spring, 28, of 822 Fairview Drive, has been charged with felony flee/elude arrest with motor vehicle, two counts of failure to stop for a stop sign/flashing red light, driving while license revoked, speeding, reckless driving — wanton disregard and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was placed in the Davidson County Detention Center under a $10,000 secured bond.
Kattner said the chase began about 10:30 p.m. Friday night when a TPD officer attempted to stop Spring, who was driving a Suzuki 600 motorcycle, for suspicious activity on Interstate 85 Business Loop North at Albertson Road. From Albertson Road, the chase went toward National Highway where Spring went into the median and the northbound lanes of Interstate 85 Business Loop going southbound. Kattner said Spring went to the Mendenhall Road exit, where he took Mendenhall Road and continued through Thomasville before he came back onto Interstate 85 Business Loop from Lexington Avenue.
Kattner said Spring continued southbound on Interstate 85 Business Loop in the correct lane of travel until he reached Davidson County Community College, where he crossed back into the northbound lanes of I-85 Business Loop going south. The captain said Spring then passed a sheriff's deputy and was arrested near the Lexington Police Department firing range off the business loop.
Arrest warrants state Spring was traveling at least 100 miles per hour in a 55-mph zone. No vehicles wrecked in the chase. The captain said the TPD remained in the right lanes of travel.
Spring also was wanted for three failures to appear on drug charges in Guilford County. He has a court date of Wednesday in Thomasville District Court.

Aotus miconax
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Aotus miconax Thomas, 1927
Common Name(s):
|Taxonomic Notes:
|It is doubtful that the current taxonomy provides a true picture of the diversity of the genus Aotus. Ruiz-Herrera et al. (2005) reported that cytogenetic studies have characterized 18 different karyotypes with diploid numbers ranging from 46 to 58 chromosomes. The taxonomy of the night monkeys essentially follows the revision by Hershkovitz (1983), with some modifications for the Colombian and Central American forms.
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Vulnerable A2c ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Cornejo, F., Rylands, A.B., Mittermeier, R.A. & Heymann, E.
|Mittermeier, R.A., Rylands, A.B. (Primate Red List Authority) & Hoffmann, M. (Global Mammal Assessment Team)
This species is listed as Vulnerable as it is inferred to have undergone a population decline of more than 30% over the last three generations (24 years) due to habitat loss (ongoing threats include mining, population growth from immigration, and development in the area).
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|Aotus miconax is endemic to the Peruvian Andes, occurring south and east of the Río Marañón and west of the Río Huallaga (Hershkovitz 1983; Aquino and Encarnación 1994a). Butchart et al. (1995) recorded the species in the Cordillera de Colán, south of the Río Chiriaco, at altitudes from 1,730 to 2,400 m above sea level. In the south, it occurs along the left bank of the Río Huallaga in the Department of Huanaco, from the region of the Río Aguaytia (tributary of the Ucayali), north through San Martín into the Department of Amazonas, just south the Maranón (Aquino and Encarnación 1994a). This species has been recorded at elevations from 800 to 2,400 m asl.

|Little is known about the population characteristics, but they are believed to be fairly common in remaining patches of forest. Aquino and Encarnación (1994b) reviewed population structure and densities for the genus.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|This species occurs in humid and very humid lower montane cloud forests of eastern central Peru, where sympatric with Oreonax flavicauda (Butchart et al. 1995). Night monkeys typically occur in primary and secondary forest (including disturbed forest and selectively logged forest), seasonally flooded and terra firma, lowland forest, and submontane and montane (cloud forests) in Colombia and the Andes, above 800 m to 3,200 m above sea level (Hernández Camacho and Cooper 1976; Aquino and Encarnación 1994a; Defler 2004). Their sleeping sites include vine tangles and tree cavities like other species in the genus. This species can live in altered and secondary habitat. Aquino and Encarnación (1994b) reviewed the habitat and forest preferences of the genus.
Night monkeys are nocturnal: they are most active at dawn and dusk. The only exception is Aotus azarae azarae of the Chaco of southern Bolivia, Paraguay and Argentina, which is cathemeral (active during night and day). They are frugivorous; their diet includes fruit, nectar and flower (seasonally important for the A. a. azarae in the Chaco) , leaves, and small animals prey such as insects.
They are socially monogamous, living in small groups of an adult pair and offspring of different ages (infant, one or two juveniles and sometimes a subadult. In A. a. azarae, a significant number of adults range alone. They may be subadults that have left their natal groups or older adults which have been evicted from their groups by competitors (Fernandez-Duque and Huntington 2002; Fernandez-Duque 2004). Both sexes disperse. Males care for the infants (carry them) (Rotundo et al. 2002, 2005). Lone adults were observed by Villavicencio Galindo (2003) in northern Colombia. Night monkeys are territorial—groups occupy overlapping territories of 5-18 ha (depending on the species and location) (Wright 1978; Fernandez-Duque 2007). Wright (1994) and Fernandez-Duque (2007) review the behaviour and ecology of the genus.
Captive male A. lemurinus reach sexual maturity when 2 years old, and captive female A. vociferans and A. nancymaae first breed when 3-4 years old (Dixson 1983; Fernandez-Duque 2007). In the wild, male A. azarae reach adult weight only when about 4 years old, and age at first reproduction is about 5 years of age (Juárez et al. 2003; Fernandez-Duque 2004). A female A. azaraewas found to breed for the first time at 58 months of age (Fernandez-Duque et al. 2002). Single offspring are the rule. Wright (1985) recorded births between August and February for A. nigriceps in Peru (Manu National Park), and Aquino et al. (1990) indicated a birth season between December and March for A. nancymaae in north-eastern Peru. In the Argentinean Chaco, A. azaraeshows a peak of births between March and June (Fernandez-Duque 2007).
|Major Threat(s):
|Butchart et al. (1995) reported that their main threat is deforestation in their restricted range. Threats include colonisation projects, road-building (the carretera central through the cloud forests of the region and new construction throughout their distribution), selective logging, deforestation, and forest fragmentation. Recently, mining companies have been granted concessions in areas where this species occurs and these growing mining operations including open pit mining represent an increasing threat to its habitat and habitat quality. They are not hunted for food, although Butchart et al. (1995) found one being kept as a pet.
|Conservation Actions:
This species occurs in several protected areas:
Abiseo National Park (274,500 ha) (Aquino and Encarnación 1994)
Cordillera de Colán (Butchart et al. 1995)
Bosque de Proteccion Alto Mayo (in range, F. Cornejo unpubl.).
It is listed on Appendix II of CITES.
