Evangelicals, Catholics and "nones" make a mark: Parsing the 2012 God vote
Did the continued growth in the number of Americans with no religious affiliation – the so-called "nones" – help propel President Obama to a second term?
Did the efforts of U.S. Catholic bishops to invoke "religious liberty" as a campaign issue this year make any difference with what traditionally is an important swing vote?
Did white evangelicals put aside any lingering concerns about Mitt Romney and remain committed GOP voters?
The short answers – at least from what we can gather so far – are no, possibly, and yes.
The Pew Forum on Religion Public Life, in a preliminary analysis of exit polls released Wednesday, spotlights the fact that Obama won despite an erosion of support among white evangelicals and white Catholics.
At the same time, the traditional religious coalitions that align behind Democrats and Republicans largely held, according to the Pew analysis: White evangelicals and weekly churchgoers backed Romney while black Protestants, Jews and the religiously unaffiliated supported Obama.
That in and of itself is surprising given the religious storylines of this election, including Romney's Mormon faith and the presence of two Catholics as the vice presidential nominees, said John Green, a political scientist at the University of Akron and the go-to analyst on unpacking the God vote.
"It shows just how strongly embedded religion is in the structure of politics," he said.
The initial speculation and preliminary evidence was white evangelicals and other conservative Christians might not enthusiastically support Romney, either for theological or other reasons, Green noted. Ultimately, though, exit polls showed nearly eight in 10 white evangelicals supported Romney, an improvement over John McCain's 73 percent in 2008 and on par with George W. Bush's 2004 numbers.
Perhaps more interestingly, Romney received less support from his fellow Mormons than allegedly skeptical white evangelicals – although it was just 1 percentage point less.
Our ability to parse the religion vote in Colorado is handicapped by terribly narrow exit polling. In Colorado, voters only were asked whether they self-identify as white evangelical or white born-again Christians.
There was no window into the very important Catholic vote (or, critically, how it broke down along ethnic lines). We have no idea the role the state's large population of "nones" played.
What we did learn: White evangelical or born-again Christian voters made up more of the state's electorate than four years ago (25 percent in 2012, versus 21 percent in 2008) and supported Romney over Obama by a margin of 77 percent to 22 percent. That is comparable to how Romney fared nationally among that voting bloc, further evidence of Colorado's standing as a political Peoria.
Romney outperformed McCain by one percentage point among white evangelical voters. You'd think it would have been more, given the election was closer. But without more information about the vote, it's very hard to tell. We also have yet to see any exit polling – local or national – breaking down the God vote by age, keeping us in the dark about whether Obama held onto young evangelicals who helped elect him in 2008.
We do know that white evangelical support for Obama dropped nationally by 6 percentage points since 2008.
There was also talk of a "Catholic moment" this election, in part because of two Catholic vice presidential candidates, Joe Biden and Paul Ryan. But mostly, what took center stage was U.S. Catholic bishops expanding their usual election-year focus on abortion to include appeals to protect religious liberty in light of the contraception mandate that grew out of President Obama's health care overhaul.
In Denver, Archbishop Samuel Aquila followed in the footsteps of his predecessor, Charles Chaput, in calling Catholics to live out their faith when voting. Aquila penned three election-themed letters in the last three months, including one on Oct. 31 that touched on various aspects of "respecting the dignity of human life," mentioning dignity for the poor, opposing abortion and backing immigrants' rights.
That letter spotlighted shortcomings with both major political parties – including calling out Republican support for the death penalty as permissible in select cases but "tragic in modern America."
But the letter that got the widest audience was read by priests at Masses throughout northern Colorado at Aquila's direction the weekend before election day, focusing squarely on religious liberty and the contraception mandate. Separately, a group of lay Catholics – their identities have not been publicly disclosed – paid for a full-page ad in The Sunday Denver Post reprinting Aquila's letter with his permission.
"He has been speaking on different aspects of the election throughout the cycle," said archdiocesan spokeswoman Karna Swanson. "I think that was a topic he had chosen to speak about at that moment because it was something he saw as a definite threat in this election and wanted to bring attention to it."
Green believes the religious liberty issue played a part in Obama's significant drop in support among white Catholics (it fell from 47 percent in 2008 to 40 percent in 2012).
"I really do think it has a lot to do with that," Green said. "There are two ways to look at it. One is, 'Wow, that made a big impact, moved white Catholics away from the president.' On the other hand, you could say there are limits to what bishops and lay Catholics could do because it only moved 7 points."
There is disagreement about whether the bishops' religious liberty focus influenced voters beyond conservative Catholics already voting Republican anyway. Certainly, it may have helped better mobilize the most conservative Catholics.
As for broader spectrum of Catholics, those unlikely to be swayed by the bishops' focus on abortion may have been more open to the religious liberty argument, even if they disagree with (and ignore) the church's ban on artificial contraception. Without digging deeper than the exit polls, it's impossible to know.
Green suspects the religious liberty appeal connected more with white, regularly-attending-Mass Catholics, both because they trend more conservative and are actually in church to get the message.
Democrats got better news from Hispanic Catholics, who make up a large and growing portion of Colorado's Catholic population (and, Green notes, were probably more interested in immigration reform than religious liberty). Hispanic Catholics upped their support for Obama from 72 percent in 2008 to 75 percent in 2012.
One surprise: Hispanic Catholics accounted for less of the electorate than four years ago, exit polls found (dropping from 6 percent of the total to 5 percent). Many other states with large Hispanic populations, including Texas and California, are Election Day non-factors and motivation to vote might have been lacking. The story might have been different in Battleground Colorado.
Finally, the "nones." Some Democrats believed they could count on the religiously unaffiliated as yet another growing demographic that makes the party ascendant – part of a coalition that includes Hispanics and highly-educated, better-off whites remaking the suburbs of cities like Denver.
But exit polls found not only that support for Obama eroded 5 percentage points in the past four years among the religiously unaffiliated – from 75 points to 70 points – but that "nones" represented the same share of the electorate as four years ago (12 percent) instead of shooting up the charts.
Green said he was "a bit surprised" the religiously unaffiliated did not show up in greater numbers. Earlier this year, Pew released a report titled "'Nones' on the Rise" that estimated that the unaffiliated accounted for close to one-fifth of the U.S. population.
"What that reveals is the unaffiliated are difficult to mobilize," he said. "It's not that they can't be. But you can't find them in the same place, at the same time." Making it more difficult, many of the unaffiliated are disengaged from all kinds of social institutions, not just religious ones, he said.
"Democrats and supporters of liberal causes just have not been able to get as many votes from this group of unaffiliateds as they'd like," he said.

The Carnegie Library
Carnegie libraries were appearing all over the country at the turn of the last century. Negotiations with the Carnegie Corporation for a library in Monroe County began on March 15, 1901, and a pledge of $15,000 was received later that year on December 21. Five days later, the matter was given to the Commercial Club to work on getting community support for a library levy. By July 1902 there had still been no agreement on the necessary tax. Consequently, the question of accepting a construction grant from the Carnegie Corporation was postponed for more than a decade.E. M. C. Hobbs, president of the Library Board, re-established contact with the Carnegie Corporation in 1913. According to the Bloomington Weekly Courier of April 2, the library board planned to bid $12,000 the following Saturday on a lot at 6th and Washington St., which had formerly been occupied by a school for "colored" persons, and before that had been a township school. On November 7, 1913, Carnegie sent another offer to the city of Bloomington for $27,500. In a letter dated April 7, 1915, Mr. Hobbs stated that the lot was purchased for $12,000. The next several months were spent trying to secure a larger grant amount to construct a finer building. These efforts were rewarded on September 29, 1915, with the promise of $31,000 from the Carnegie Corporation. Wilson B. Parker of Indianapolis was hired as the architect for the project. An objection to the blueprints, especially for a lecture room in the basement, delayed approval of the plans until April 4, 1917. Dedicated February 1, 1918, the facility opened with Miss Catherine C. Ashman as librarian over a collection of 6,300 volumes.This structure remained the library's home until a new facility was constructed in 1970. The former Carnegie Library Building is now on the National Register of Historic Places. It currently houses the Monroe County History Center and the Genealogy Library.

Go Birding
Long Pond Park
White-throated Sparrowby D. Speiser
Nesting** Spring Migration*** Fall Migration*** Winter**
(no star = birding is not very productive, * = somewhat productive, ** = productive, *** = very productive)
Long Pond Park, owned by the City of New York/Parks and Recreation, features seven ponds, the largest being 5-acre Long Pond. Long Pond is one of the most pristine ponds in the New York City area. Located 65 feet above sea level, it is fed completely from underground springs. With its special level of purity, the pond is a vital habitat supporting many species of animals.
A network of old roadbeds and foot trails make it easy to search different areas of the park. This area is excellent from late August through October for autumn migrants, including large numbers of sparrows, including Fox, Lincoln's, and White-crowned.
Click here to see the location and boundaries of Long Pond Park Preserve
From April through May good numbers of neotropical migrants (especially warblers and thrushes) can be found in the woods and along the roads leading to the Long Pond. It is also a good spot for migratory shorebirds and Wood Duck. From early May through late summer, Purple Martin and Northern Rough-winged Swallow carry out an energetic gleaning of air-borne insects over this area.
White-eyed Vireoby D. Speiser
Eastern Towhee, Gray Catbird, and Red-eyed Vireo are the most common breeding birds; Great Horned Owl, White-eyed Vireo, and Warbling Vireo are less common, but present.
Protectors of Pine Oak Woods
Founded in 1972, Protectors of Pine Oak Woods is Staten Island's primary land conservation organization protecting its parks, natural areas, and wildlife. Besides its success in saving Mt. Loretto Nature Preserve, Protectors helped establish Long Pond Park, as well as the Greenbeltand the Bluebelt.
Bobolinkby D. Speiser
When to Go
Early to mid-May, Bobolink arrive in the fields on the NYSDEC nature preserve side. The Chuck-will's-widow is a regular in June. Visit early in the morning for the best results, unless you want to see Common Nighthawk, which can be seen in good numbers soaring overhead in the evening, particularly in late August and September. Also in the evening, you may be able to call in Eastern Screech-Owl.
Days from late August through October are excellent times to see a variety of migratory landbirds and raptors. In mid-October, the fields at Long Pond are alive with Yellow Warbler, Palm Warbler, and sparrows.
Personal Safety
This area is relatively safe. Teens use the woods near Long Pond as a "hang-out," but do not cause problems. Nevertheless, it is recommended that you bird with others.
Poison ivy is prevalent, and ticks abound, so wear long pants. In a wet summer, mosquitoes are also plentiful.

Public defenders will represent Boston Marathon bomb suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
Attorneys raise concern about interrogation of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
Federal public defenders have agreed to represent the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings.
Miriam Conrad, the federal defender for Massachusetts, says her office expects to represent Dzhokhar Tsarnaev after he is charged.
Tsarnaev remained hospitalized Saturday after being wounded in a firefight with police Friday. His brother was killed.
Conrad says she believes Dzhokhar should have a lawyer appointed as soon as possible because there are "serious issues regarding possible interrogation."
U.S. officials said a special interrogation team for high-value suspects would question him without reading him his Miranda rights, under a public safety exception that exists to protect police and the public from immediate danger. Miranda rights include the right to remain silent and the right to have a lawyer.

White House: Sequester would cost Connecticut $50M
Connecticut would lose more than $50 million this year in funding for education, job training, public health, law enforcement, environmental protection and assistance for its youngest and oldest citizens if Congress and President Barack Obama cannot forge a budget deal by March 1, the White House said Sunday night.
Obama, continuing to speak directly to the American people rather than to Congress on the latest budget deadline, issued a state-by-state breakdown of impacts from "sequestration" cuts if no budget deal is reached in the next few days.
The White House release again decried the "severe impacts" of the sequester's meat-ax approach.
"The Office of Management and Budget now calculates that sequestration will require an annual reduction of roughly 5 percent for non-defense programs and roughly 8 percent for defense" nationwide, the White House statement said.
"Given that these cuts must be achieved over only seven months (allowing time to implement them) instead of 12, the effective percentage reductions will be approximately 9 percent for nondefense programs and 13 percent for defense."
The White House statement urged Republicans to "compromise and meet the President in the middle. We cannot simply cut our way to prosperity, and if Republicans continue to insist on an unreasonable, cuts-only approach, Connecticut risks paying the price."
Republican House Speaker John Boehner said last week in a Wall Street Journal op-ed that the sequester "is a product of the President's own failed leadership."
The Connecticut list includes:
Teachers and schools: About $8.7 million for primary and secondary education, putting about 120 teacher and aide jobs at risk. The White House estimated 40 fewer schools would receive funding and 8,000 fewer students would be served.
Early education and child care: Head Start and Early Head Start would be eliminated for about 500 children, and 200 "disadvantaged and vulnerable" children would lose child care.
Public health: About $107,000 for childhood vaccines, meaning 1,570 fewer children will be vaccinated; about $341,000 in funds to help upgrade the state's ability to respond to public-health emergencies; $840,000 for substance abuse prevention and treatment; and $273,000 for HIV testing.
Defense: Approximately 3,000 civilian Department of Defense employees would be furloughed, reducing gross pay by about $15 million; $1.6 million for Army base operations; $13 million for two demolition projects at New London, plus unspecified funding for maintenance and repair of the USS Providence.
Job search assistance and placement: $242,000, or funding for about 10,650 job seekers.
Environment: $2 million in clean water and air funding, plus $398,000 to protect fish and wildlife.
Other: $153,000 for Justice Assistance Grants to aid police, courts and corrections; $201,000 for nutritional assistance for seniors; and $87,000 for services to domestic-violence victims.
Reached Sunday night at his office in Hartford, where he was meeting with a group from Newtown on gun issues, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said, "I think these more current numbers reaffirm how catastrophic these arbitrary, automatic across-the-board cuts would be. I will be working intensely during these next few days to bring together a bipartisan group that can help stop them.
"We need a balanced approach with smart and responsible spending cuts but also revenue increases through closing loopholes and tax breaks -- to oil and gas and agribusiness and others," Blumenthal said. "The real disastrous impact in Connecticut will be to stymie our all-too-slow economic recovery and impede job creation."

Scripps Health made the winning bid Tuesday to buy San Diego Hospice's eight-acre Hillcrest property, but rival Sharp HealthCare didn't make it easy.
The region's two largest health care systems squared off Tuesday before bankruptcy Judge Margaret Mann in an auction that started at $11 million.
Mann sat silently as the two sides traded bids increasing at least $50,000 a shot. Now and then, the players would ask for a recess to strategize in private.
A total of 50 bids later, Scripps finally hit a price — $16.55 million — that Sharp was not willing to match.
It was $5.8 million more than the $10.7 million Scripps first agreed to pay when the company signed on to serve as the auction's so-called stalking horse bidder.
Tuesday's auction was the latest chapter in a long and sad story for San Diego Hospice, once the area's largest provider of end-of-life care. In November, the nonprofit announced that it faced a serious Medicare audit and began laying off workers, eventually declaring bankruptcy on Feb. 4.
When bankruptcy plans were filed calling for closure, rather than reorganization under Chapter 11, Scripps stepped forward, agreeing to accept some of its patients.
Chris Van Gorder, Scripps' chief executive, said he had always expected the price at Tuesday's auction would go higher than the initial amount if another qualified bidder materialized.
Scripps intends to continue using the property, which includes a 24-bed hospice hospital and several other administrative buildings, for inpatient end-of-life care, he said.
"Our intent is to sustain a legacy that has been pretty important in this community and to continue honoring the patients that were cared for in that facility," Van Gorder said.
Scripps is a newcomer to the hospice industry. In February, the company purchased a small Poway hospice so it could accept patients from San Diego Hospice. Van Gorder said that Scripps now has about 200 hospice patients.
That makes Scripps' operation about half the size of Sharp's, which serves about 430 hospice patients a day, according to CEO Mike Murphy.
Neither approaches the size of San Diego Hospice in its heyday, when it cared for nearly 1,000 patients.
But that number has dwindled after the organization announced last fall that it faced a Medicare audit that appeared to question its admissions practices and qualification of patients to receive federal reimbursement for hospice care.
At issue is whether the hospice allowed patients to stay on service when it could not be proved that they were dying.
Though the federal government still has not filed a claim against San Diego Hospice, the organization said a week after entering bankruptcy that its patient census continued to dwindle after news of the audit difficulties surfaced, making closure necessary.
After Tuesday's auction, Kathleen Pacurar, San Diego Hospice's CEO, said she was pleased that it was two health care companies competing for the property.
"I'm excited that the building will still be in health care," Pacurar said.
Built with an $18.5 million donation from the late Joan Kroc on a bluff top property with inspirational views of Mission Valley and Mission Bay in the distance, the hospital has always been about more than providing a quiet place for families going through a painful time.
Both Scripps and Sharp seemed to understand the significance of the property and its legacy in the community. Both pledged to preserve the myriad memorials throughout its buildings and along a perimeter garden walking path.
Murphy, the Sharp CEO, said he saw a number of potential uses including hospice, if his organization had ultimately won.
"We thought we could have, at the right price, have invested the right amount of money and done something there. It's obviously a beautiful setting," Murphy said.
Van Gorder said Scripps intends to do some renovations and continue to use the hospital to care for hospice patients whose symptoms are severe enough to need round-the-clock care outside the home. He said patients referred by providers other than Scripps would be welcome.
"San Diego Hospice, they worked with everybody," Van Gorder said.
The deal will need approval by the California Attorney General's office, and hospice attorney Jeffrey Isaacs said Scripps is not likely to be able to take possession for more than a month.

Hiya everyone! Thought I would do a bit of a different blog post today, showing you some new additions to my jewellery collection, all of which I love! After a long day at school I actually managed to stay awake enough to take a few photos and edit them whilst listening to the best music ever and eating biscuits. I have to admit that these pieces are sponsored but nevertheless I think it's worth showing you guys, as some of these I would definitely buy anyway. The first three (all in the first photo) are from *Zara Taylor* who designs vintage inspired jewellery :) My favourite piece of them all has to be the blue opal ring - looking far more expensive than it actually is, what's not to like? The last photo features a charm bracelet and ear cuff from *Paccony* and a cute bunny ring from *Rings and Tings*. Let me know if you have a favourite piece and comment below! P.S. I have a (clothes related) giveaway soon! Can I hear a 'yay' yaaaaay xxx

Bassett necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 282 diseños de 94 diseñadores freelance.
Bassett Realty Group
Bassett Realty Group is a young, professional, startup real estate company in the Dallas, Texas area. Our company is new, but we've been in the game for years and our branding needs to project a PROFESSIONAL and CLASSY image so we can go head-to-head with the Big Boys. You want to help the little guys, right? :)
We're looking for an iconic logo (think Nike swoosh) to launch our enterprise. Due to the similar spelling of Bassett (our company) and Basset Hound (the dog) we feel the ideal logo would be some sort of play on the idea of the dog. Our thoughts are a stylistic basset hound profile, dog house, or maybe a dog paw print. Then again, you're the expert...
We're real estate agents, so pretty much anyone buying or selling a home is our target audience. Our service area spans urban, suburban, and rural buyers and sellers. Anyone in the Great State of Texas could be our audience.
Past the do's and don'ts below, we defer to your creativity. We figure we know real estate, you know design. Let's see your best! (we need it!)
-Use a Basset Hound profile, or dog house, or paw print for inspiration.
-Priority goes to the word "Bassett", with "Realty Group" secondary.
-Fonts must be easy to read, no cursive or balloon types.
-Must look great on a coffee cup, billboard, and anything in-between.
-Must look great in black and white and any color.
-No gradients.
-No cartoons.
-No clipart or stock images.
Our company colors are blue and white, and the logo must be crisp, stylish, and sleek, just like our company vehicles (see attached). I'll be conferring with my partner along the way, but I am usually *VERY* prompt with replies.
Monies are guaranteed so please bring your best ideas! Good luck to all!
We will require:
-Print file format - .ai (CMYK)

CASHLESS ACTIVITIES: When one goes someplace, one generally considers of all the various reasons they'll need cash. If you go to the theater, say, you'll need money for a ticket, money for popcorn, money for soda, and perhaps money for dinner after the show. But one popular destination that is frequently cash-free, or mostly, is about to get a little cash-freer, at least for a weekend. We're talking the national parks. Cash tends to be an upfront thing for some parks -- you need to pay to get through the welcome gate at many of the NPS-helmed areas -- but once in, well. Enjoying nature is free. You can pack your food and enjoy a day in the sunshine without spending a cent. Here's the "cash-freer" end of this deal: A few times a year the national parks go "fee-free," meaning those parks that do charge an entrance fee waive it for a special and important reason. They'll be doing just that from Saturday, Nov. 9 through Monday, Nov. 11 in honor of Veterans Day.
THE FINAL FEE-FREE DAYS: These three days will be the final waived admission days of 2013 for the national parks, so if you wanted to hop on one of those opportunities, your hopping needs to happen during that weekend. Of course, a number of parks are free all year long, but places like Yosemite and Death Valley do have entrance fees. So our recommendation? Try out a participating park, a park that normally carries an admission price, during the fee-free days. There are over 400 parks and monuments and historic sites across the country to choose from, and plenty near to home, if home is California. Where will you go, for not too much money? A little gas in the tank, a picnic lunch, and no money at the gate. It's a nice way to honor Veterans and welcome everyone to celebrate nature and a little rest.

A continuation of the last improving transit speed post, which is building off of the discussion over at Portland Transport, and now specifically focusing on people's suggestions for speeding up travel time along NE Holladay. I hope this provides something of an operational perspective as to why some things are the way they are and that might prove to be a hindrance in redesigning platform placement. These are not necessarily insurmountable obstacles, but are, at the very least, obstacles that prevent any of the suggestions from the Portland Transport post from being enacted immediately.
NE 7th Ave and OCC
Courtesy of Portland Transport, here are weekday passenger counts for eastbound stops on Holladay during fall 2010 (westbound not listed but they're pretty comparable):
Rose Quarter—–1,207—1,035
Convention Ctr.—–433—–595
NE 7th—————396—–764
Lloyd Center——1,000—1,830
Given those lower passenger counts compared to RQ and Lloyd Center, many people have put forth the argument that Convention Center and NE 7th could be closed to speed up travel time on Holladay without severe impact to passengers.
However, both of those platforms serve an important purpose on Holladay – not so much for passenger loading, but rather as a necessity to travel along this section of the alignment. The short explanation is that those platforms are needed to call signals/switches on Holladay. The long explanation: keep reading.
For one thing, trains at all stops along Holladay need to call the pre-empt signals to proceed, which will then cascade into the next platform. But OCC & NE 7th have an additional complication. The alignment on Holladay from just past Rose Quarter to just before Lloyd Center is between two sets of switches. On the west (click for map), there's a crossover as well as switches to diverge into the special events track, westbound main, or trolley barn at Rose Quarter. On the eastern side, there are switches to diverge a train into (or out of) the Doubletree Siding. Going back to my earlier posts on signal types, since all of these switches are in pre-empt territory, they are associated with ABS/pre-empt combination signals and are protected by ATS magnets.
Let's start with the switches into the Doubletree Siding on the eastern side.
NE 7th Ave
The above picture (click for larger) shows what an eastbound train at NE 7th sees. Of interest is combination signal 20A immediately prior to the Lloyd Center platform. The zoom lens makes it look closer than it really is – a better perspective (though not as clear of a photo) is this old picture from when NE 7th was where trains would switch radio channels to Main 1 or Main 3. In that linked photo, 20A is the red light at NE 11th.
In this above photo, you can see that the intersection at 9th is has a permissive white vertical pre-empt. Now look down to NE 11th at the combination signal 20A, which is displaying a yellow horizontal. This informs the operator of an eastbound train at 7th that the power switch that can diverge a train into the Doubletree Siding is aligned to continue east, but 11th is not pre-empted yet. 20A will time out back to a red after a minute, which reactivates the magnet until the next train calls it.
Approaching Lloyd Center, eastbound.
ATS magnet visible in foreground, white vertical on 20A in background.
When 20A is red, that ATS magnet will stop an eastbound train before it gets to the intersection at NE 11th. Therefore, 20A must be called by a train before it can proceed through 11th into the Lloyd Center platform, but it needs a place to call 20A from. Rolling calls, or in other words, pressing the call button as you move over a call loop without stopping, are a poor practice. Trains should be at a complete stop over a call loop to call a signal, so there needs to be some place for a train to stop prior to NE 11th to call 20A, and that purpose is served by the NE 7th platform. When placing the call at 7th, rail operators will look down to 20A from there and make sure it drops from a red before proceeding.
The NE 7th platform is needed for trains to go east to ensure that the switches for Doubletree are properly set, so 7th doesn't work as a stop that can be closed or skipped since a train will have to stop there anyway to call 20A. (Plus 710 NE Holladay right by the platform at NE 7th is a TriMet building, so it's unlikely that front-door MAX service is going to go away from there.)
Then over at Oregon Convention Center…
Oregon Convention Center (OCC)
Looking at OCC on the western side of the Holladay alignment, there are two combination signals that affect train movement from OCC to into Rose Quarter: 18A and 18B.
Signal 18A is located on the corner of NE Holladay & 2nd for westbound trains. It is associated with switches 13A, 11C, and 11D and the ATS magnet (visible in the above picture as the little yellow square) on the opposite corner of NE 2nd. If any of those switches are not properly set for a westbound move from OCC or if there is a conflicting move in progress – for example, a vintage trolley coming out of the trolley barn or turnbacks like last weekend's streetcar work, 18A will remain red and a westbound train will be tripped at the ATS magnet. To proceed through here, 18A needs to be called by westbound trains from a platform (remember, no rolling calls), which is why OCC is needed.
West from OCC, 18B visible (displaying a red aspect, click for larger and look on the Rose Quarter platform)
Way down there by the Rose Quarter special events platform is signal 18B, an ABS/pre-empt combination signal that routes a train into the westbound main (click for a more up-close picture of 18B), the special events track, or the trolley barn. Like 18A, 18B is called by westbound trains from OCC, and both need to drop from reds before a train can continue west into Rose Quarter. 18B doesn't have an ATS magnet of its own (the magnet at 2nd for signal 18A will stop a train before it gets near 18B) but this signal is still necessary for route selection. Both 18A and 18B will time out back to reds and will need to be called by the next westbound train, ensuring that the switches are properly set and there are no conflicting moves by other trains. As a result, OCC is another platform that can't be skipped or closed because westbound trains need a platform to call 18A and 18B from. Similar to NE 7th, since trains have to stop here anyway to call the signals, they may as well service the platform.
White vertical on 18A, yellow horizontal on 18B
So can either of these stops be closed, moved, etc? Not easily.. NE 7th eastbound and OCC westbound are currently necessary to call their respective ABS/pre-empt combination signals to ensure switch alignment/no conflicting moves by other trains. And while their corresponding westbound and eastbound platforms don't have combination signals, operators will still call for pre-empt signals to proceed from there. At present, I don't really see a way to avoid stopping at both of these platforms despite the relatively low passenger on- and off-boarding at these locations. This isn't to say that it can't ever be done, but I don't think skipping either of those platforms can be done as an immediate fix.

A couple of weeks ago Randy van Horne passed away at the age of 83. You might not recognize his name but you would certainly recognize the sound and work of the Randy Van Horne Singers, one of the most in-demand studio session vocal groups of the 1950s and '60s. They can be heard on countless television and radio commercials, jingles and station identification spots many of them written by Van Horne. But they'll always be remembered for singing the themes to many of Hanna-Barbera's iconic pop-cultural cartoons like The Jetsons, The Huckleberry Hound Show, Yogi Bear, and The Flintstones. Hey, it's Yabba-dabba-doo time, kids!
The Randy Van Horne Singers also worked with some of the biggest names of the era including Mel Tormé, Dean Martin, Martin Denny, Jimmy Witherspoon and Juan Garcia Esquivel, who twisted jazz and lounge into a quirky genre we now call Space Age Pop. Serious fans of Esquivel will know his trademark "Zu-zu-zus," crooned by the Randy Van Horne Singers.
The group included some of the most famous session singers (yet almost completely unknown to the public!) of all time including Marni Nixon. She was singing voice for Natalie Wood in West Side Story, and sang for Deborah Kerr in The King and I. Thurl Ravenscroft - the voice of Tony the Tiger for Kellogg's Frosted Flakes commercials, and he sang You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch from the classic animated television special, How the Grinch Stole Christmas and B.J. Baker who worked with Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin and Sam Cooke, among others. She was also Miss Alabama in 1944.

Spring: the Eclectic Framework
Originally, I intended to discuss the Spring framework from the development perspective, but given the fact that there are numerous articles and publications about the topic, including the well-documented reference manual, I decided to switch my focus to the usability of this technology. In this article, I will play the role of the devil's advocate and will concentrate on the framework as a whole, its usefulness, and the problem space it is trying to address. I will still discuss the concepts and components of the framework in detail, and will assume the readers are familiar with Java Web development.
The Spring framework was nominated in the Developer.com contest for the Framework of the Year 2006; I have briefly described its features in the contest-related article. I have also talked about its main features in "Modern Java Frameworks for Web Development", and if you are looking for a very-hands-on, rich-in-details book I suggest Spring in Action from Manning Publishing (see references).
If you have been involved in any way with Web development in the past couple of years, chances are you have invariably created some generic/reusable components in addition to the Web framework you were using. Perhaps you wrote something to reduce the development and maintenance—maybe it was a utility class, wrapper for JDBC connections code, exceptions with meaningful messages, or maybe a re-usable lookup mechanism. The fact is that any popular Web development framework, such as Struts or WebWork, addresses the domain of Web application flow control, provides some kind of MVC, and very rarely tries to give the developers anything extra. Spring, on the other hand, seems to provide a smorgasbord of generic components geared to cover most development needs.
The framework was designed with the following objectives in mind:
- Good design is more important than underlying technology
- JavaBeans loosely coupled through interfaces is a good model
- Code should be easy to test
In fact, Spring looks like a collection of modules to replace EJB and provide many generic services, rather then a Web framework.
The framework is based on code published in Expert One-on-One J2EE Design and Development by Rod Johnson (Wrox, 2002). As of this writing, it is up to version 1.2.8. It consists of several main modules and some smaller ones. They are all encapsulated within a well-defined package and interface structure, and serve a distinct purpose. The framework's purpose cannot be easily defined because all of the modules can be used separately from each other, and a project may use one, some, or all of them. Therefore, Spring (or parts of it) can easily co-exist in any project based on Struts, JSF, WebWork, Tapestry, or any other framework. Some very good design principles are implemented in the framework, such as decoupling of code with interfaces, Factory design pattern, and so forth. Spring also relies heavily on XML config files to tie and wire beans with different logic and from different modules together. In addition, the framework can be integrated with other technologies and has hooks for various third-party Object/Relational Mapping (ORM) technologies, such as JDO, iBATIS, and OJB. As if all of this was not enough, Spring has hooks for JMS, Tiles, and Velocity; and can even work with EJBs (which, by ideology, it is trying to avoid).
Main Features
So, what problem space does the Spring framework really address? Is it only one problem or multiple problems? Who should use Spring? What will involve implementing this technology in an enterprise project? Is there an ROI benefit from it? Is there industry support?
If you are an enterprise architect presented with a new project specification and daunted with the task of choosing a framework, you may be asking yourself these same questions. I'll discuss the main features of this framework and look at their usefulness, ease of implementation, learning curve, and the problem domains they address.
The first question of what problem Spring helps to solve is really difficult to answer. As I have mentioned, there are a lot of problems that Spring is trying to address, but the two main areas the framework concentrates on are: replacing complexity of EJBs with plain Java Beans (or POJOs) and providing easy Web flow or MVC-like framework implementation. Besides these two distinct and unrelated areas, other modules are designed to eliminate tedious database connection open and clean up code (JDBC code wrappers), clear exception handling with meaningful messages, easier JNDI lookup, and so on. Overall, it looks like that framework is trying to provide something for every conceivable problem in Web development.
Here is the view of the Spring packages, from which you also can get the sense of its vast scope and diversity.
The beans and web packages, along with aop and context, are main packages dealing with the two problem domains that I indicated above. Other packages of interest are jdbc, dao, and orm dealing with the database interactions. Most of the packages can be used without the others, so if you only want a scheduling logic (scheduling package), you can use just that.
Spring Concepts
At the heart of Spring lie two extremely powerful concepts: Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) and Inversion of Control (IoC).
The IoC is a design pattern (also known as Dependency Injection) that provides one object to another object through injection at runtime, thus inverting or shifting the control from the main object to resolve other objects it needs by providing them at runtime. This sounds complicated, but really it is not.
For example, say that you have an application that shows news to the user and, as a news feed, you are using Reuters World News.
This is a pseudo code of a ShowNews bean that is using another bean, ReutersWorldNews, to show and format the news in a method called show_latest_news.
Class ShowNews { ReutersWorldNews rwn = new ReutersWorldNews(); Public News show_latest_news(){ news = Rwn.getNews(); return news.format(); } }
Say that you have decided to add Bloomberg News as another news source. However, that would require rewriting an entire ShowNews class because it is hard coupled with the ReutersWorldNews bean.
To fix this using IoC, you will need to create an interface and provide a specific news feed class (implementing this interface) for use in the ShowNews bean.
For example:
Interface NewsFeed { News getNews(); } ReutersWorldNews implements NewsFeed ... BloombergNews implements NewsFeed ...
The fixed ShowNews class:
Class ShowNews { NewsFeed nf; // now an interface void setNewsFeed(NewsFeed injected_news_feed){ this.nf = injected_news_feed. } Public News show_latest_news(){ news = nf.getNews(); return news.format(); } }
Now, the class can be injected with any news feed that implements NewsFeed interface and there is no hard coupling. This of course is a very simplified example, but it shows the main idea behind this pattern. You can use setter injection, as well as constructor injection, which is a matter of preference.

June 22, 1941, a date that would likely change the fate and political landscape of Europe forever. Nearly 4 million Axis soldiers, comprising of armies from Germany, Italy, and Romania violated the precarious nonaggression pact between Germany and the Soviet Union by launching a full invasion of the latter. Finland and Hungary would join suite in the follow weeks. Operation Barbarossa would entail one of the largest invasion forces in human history. Battlefields such as Stalingrad, Leningrad, Moscow, Sevastopol, and Kursk would become synomynous of the gore, devastation, and suffering of the Eastern Front.
In this campaign, you will get the choice of serving as a German soldier in the Ostfront, attempting to defy Napoleon's legacy, or as a Red Army soldier, fighting a crucible of national survival in the Great Patriotic War.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4V66HHNGyw
Experience a balanced and exhilarating Forgotten Hope 1 campaign with:
* A continuing legacy for Forgotten Hope 1.
* A historical virtual simulation of the first 2 years of the Eastern Front of WW2 including combined arms operations between infantry, artillery, tanks, planes, and boats and more. Change history by taking Stalingrad, or by holding the Fascists at the Russian frontier.
* Over 13 grueling battles throughout the western Soviet Union, from the marshes of Belarus to the Volga, from Leningrad to Rostov.
* Played entirely on the highly acclaimed Forgotten Honor minimod, which exclusively features maps designed for large-scale tournament play.
* 2 sides led by experienced veterans with teamwork oriented armies employing strategies and co-operation with promotions and rewards for your achievements.
* New friendships with likeminded people from all over the world
* It is free and everybody is welcome!
What is a campaign?
A campaign is a series of connected battles where we recreate the timeline of the war. Here at Forgotten Honor it also means teamplay and organized gameplay. Campaigns take about 8-10 weeks and every Saturday we will have one 4-hour battle. All battles are counted towards the final score which determines the army that won the overall campaign.
Every army has a training server to use during the week for scouting and practice, as well as their own Teamspeak channels and locked sub-forums (we call them barracks) for communication and entertainment. Everyone can participate in all weekly activities and events as much as they want!
About Forgotten Honor:
Forgotten Honor is an international gaming community that has a great amount of experience in arranging online events for games. Founded in 2004 by several players who wanted to organize ''teamwork'' emphasized battles for video games, Forgotten Honor has been growing until becoming one of the leaders in online events market. Nowadays hosts several tournaments and campaigns for different games, organizes multiple events, has its own modding development unit and is supported by an active community.

Daycamp Information
Welcome to Camp!
Safe - Active - Inclusive - Fun
Things You Need to Know for Recreation Camps
Parks, Recreation & Culture is proud to offer our dynamic day camp and specialty camp programs. We strive to help you in your quest to find activities to keep your child engaged and active in a fun, safe and exciting environment.
When registering for camp, ensure you print the applicable registration package and submit required forms on the first day of camp.
Child Information Packages
All camps have a registration package that is required to be filled out by parent/guardian. Please note that some camps may have additional waiver forms that are required. View the Participant Waiver Forms
Child Support Packages
We encourage parents/guardians of children and youth with diversabilities to explore all our programming opportunities. For more information on Recreation Access Supports including request for support worker, please view the Summer Program 2019: Request for Support Work Forms, call Petra Frederick at 604 467 7355 or email email@example.com.
Quality Supervision
Our staff to participant ratios reflects our commitment to safe, high-quality program supervision. Our regular camp ratio is one leader to twelve participants (1:12). The camp ratios for pre-school camps is one leader to eight participants (1:8). Our camp ratios are supplemented with support from responsible leadership volunteers.
Camp Leaders
Camp leaders are carefully selected based on their experience working with children, along with their display of enthusiasm, strong leadership skills and sound judgement. Qualifications for staff members include pre-camp training sessions, current Standard First Aid Certificate with CPR C and satisfactory Criminal Record Check (16 yrs and older).
Program Conduct and Goals
We aim to provide enjoyable activities in a safe and positive environment. Participants are expected to be courteous and respectful to all participants and staff, use non-offensive language at all times, support and appreciate each other, solve problems in a fair and peaceful manner, include others in their activity, and play without bullying or teasing others.
Play Fair
The goal of our camps is to ensure that all participants have a rewarding, memorable, safe and fun experience. Providing a safe environment is a collaborative process. We ask that parents/guardians talk to their children about the following camp guidelines:
- respect others and their property
- stay with your group
- use appropriate language
- ask for help when needed
Daily Hellos!
To ensure the safe arrival and departure of all campers, caregivers will be met at the sign-in/out location to initial the attendance sheet. Older participants who have written permission from a parent/guardian to travel on their own will have their arrival time recorded. If someone other than the parent/guardian is picking up your child, please let the camp staff know in advance. Photo ID will be required at the time of pick up. If you know in advance that your child will be absent please notify the camp staff. Follow up phone calls will be made if a participant is absent and staff have not been notified.
Please Note: it is important that participants arrive no later than 15 minutes after the start of the program.
Age Range for Camps
Each camp has specific age ranges to facilitate quality programming which are indicated in the program description. Every camper must meet these age requirements by the first day of the course, or they may be required to withdraw due to a lack of program compatibility. Please ensure that your children meet the listed requirements prior to registering for a course. Should you wish to discuss the suitability of a specific program for your child, please contact Jen Baillie at 604-466-4339.
Shoe Smarts
Closed-toed shoes are a must! Sandals and croc-style sandals are not suitable for our outdoor and indoor adventures.
Sun Sense
Sunscreen should be brought daily and applied regularly. We encourage you to show your child how to properly apply sunscreen. Staff will remind participants throughout the day to reapply their own sunscreen. If indicated, staff may assist younger campers with sunscreen application.
Lunches Campers are required to bring their own lunch, snacks and extra drinks. Foods should not require refrigeration. We suggest a reusable water bottle (no glass please) so you can fuel up and have the energy to go, go, go! IMPORTANT: Due to the number of participants that have severe nut-related allergies, PEANUT BUTTER, NUTS AND ALL FOODS CONTAINING NUT BY-PRODUCTS ARE NOT PERMITTED IN CAMP.
Litter-less Lunches:
Please help us maintain the three R's when packing your child(ren)'s lunches. Litter-less lunches are ideal, but not always possible. Check out our tips on reducing, reusing and recycling waste:
- Pack lunch items with none or as little packaging as possible. Fresh nutritious snacks likes apples, pears, and oranges require no packaging.
- Pack lunch items in reusable containers, rather than plastic disposable bags.
- Try to use biodegradable packaging; Paper is biodegradable, plastic is not.
- Choose items packaged in recyclable materials.
Location, Location, Location

Photo Release
Photographs of participants may be taken at any time for promotional purposes. If you do not wish to have your child's photo/name used please ensure you indicate this on the photo release waiver (PDF).
Late Fees

Withdrawal & Refund Policy
For information about registration and withdrawal/refund policies, see registration information or call our registration desk at 604-467-7422.
Rainy Days
The sun doesn't have to be shining to have a good time at camp! All camp programs will continue during inclement weather. Please dress your child appropriately.
Medical Information
Health and safety are priorities. Please ensure your child's information is accurate by completing the medical forms at sign in. If your child develops a communicable disease registered in camp (i.e pink eye, hand foot and mouth disease, etc), we ask that you inform staff immediately. This will allow us to inform other participants and allow them to take the necessary precautions.
Children must be fully toilet trained to attend all programs not requiring adult supervision.
Class Cancellation
If an insufficient number of participants have signed up for a course, the course will be cancelled. Please register early to avoid disappointment.
Parent Participation
All of our programs are drop-off programs and do not involve parent participation with the exception of parent & tot programs which are noted in the brochure.
Camp Back-Pack Check List
Remember, your children are at camp. Their clothes should be comfortable and able to withstand the rigours of camp life! Please ensure that everything your child brings to camp, including clothing, is fully labelled with their full name. Electronic devices (i.e. ipods/MP3s, personal gaming devices, cell phone, cameras, etc.) are not permitted at camp. Parks, Recreation & Culture is not responsible for lost or stolen items. Please do not send valuables to camp.

Spell Check Microsoft Word Documents With A Keyboard Shortcut
Share Printer Friendly
Text Size: A A A A
Microsoft Word does a fairly decent job fixing common spelling mistakes with AutoCorrect, but sometimes you'll need to edit another persons document, or write a quick draft and check spelling later. Here's a quick tip to run a spell check using the only the keyboard.
Just hit Alt + F7 on your keyboard and it will start with the first misspelled word. If the first highlighted word at the top of the list is correct, just hit Enter. Or you can arrow to the correct one, ignore it, or Add to Dictionary.
Hit Alt + F7 again and it will go to the next misspelled word. If you like keeping your hands on your keyboard versus switching over to your mouse, this makes correcting spelling mistakes in Word much easier.
This should work with every version of Word starting with Microsoft Word 2003.

Solutions Matchmaking
We're an Australian website design company that have been asked to redesign our client's website http://www.solutionsintros.com.
Solutions Matchmaking are a group of consultants who introduce singles to each another using their matchmaking skills to find compatible partners for love, friendship or romance.
Single, separated, divorced or widowed men & women aged mostly over 25 years who are looking for love, friendship or romance.
Solutions Matchmaking also cater for pensioners (65 years +) and people from rural, low-population areas of Australia where finding the right partner can be difficult.
Typically, a client comes to their office for a relaxed, confidential discussion about themselves, and the consultant gets to know the person and the kind of partner they're looking for in life.
The website should feel warm, friendly, trustworthy, reliable and successful to reflect the type of staff working there.
The main purpose of the website is to encourage visitors to come into Solutions Matchmaking's office for an obligation-free discussion about themselves and what Solutions Matchmaking can do for them.
Note that the website shouldn't be one of those "do-it-yourself" search for singles (like the "Main Competition" listed below). Solutions Matchmaking do the matchmaking for you, and so the website should mainly promote their personalised consultancy services.
The homepage should have at least these elements in it:
1. Solutions logo
2. 1st Navigation menu: Home, About Us, Our Services, Testimonials, Contact Us
3. 2nd Navigation menu: Our Clients, Country Contacts, Free Compatibility Review, Astrology Reviews, Dating Tips
4. Stock photos of happy couples, friendly faces, professional consultants, etc. We'll buy the licenses, but just let us know where you got them from when you submit your entry.
Feel free to put in some of your own extra "calls to action" buttons, etc, as well as any other marketing ideas.
Don't like:
- The design (too outdated). Needs to be a more contemporary design.
- Colour scheme (too "washed out")
- Heading font type (too "technological")
Do like:
- Text content
- Some of the photos are 'ok'

Salesforce.com Chalks Up Strong FY12, but Competition Looms
Feb 27, 2012 5:00 AM PT
Salesforce.com hit it out of the park with quarterly earnings for its fiscal fourth quarter and full fiscal year, which ended Jan. 31, 2012. Total Q4 revenue was US$632 million, an increase of 38 percent on a year-over-year basis, topping the $624 million expected by analysts. For the full fiscal year 2012, the company reported revenue of $2.27 billion, an increase of 37 percent from the prior year.
Its Q1 2013 guidance was also robust, projected to be in the range of $673-$678 million, an increase of 33-34 percent, year-over-year. Salesforce.com raised its projected revenue for the full fiscal year to $2.92-$2.95 billion, an increase of 29-30 percent from the previous year.
Race for Large Deals
The company's stellar performance can be credited in part to a series of large deals the cloud provider closed. In recent weeks, it inked a $100 million plus contract with a large insurer, CEO Marc Benioff said during the earnings call.
The company also signed signed contracts with HP, BMW and AT&T, he noted.
A Temporary Burst?
The frenetic pace of activity is likely temporary, however. Salesforce.com is racing to secure as many large deals as possible before Oracle Public Cloud goes live, according to Global Equities Research analyst Trip Chowdry, who downgraded Salesforce.com to "underweight."
In fact, Salesforce.com may lose about one-third of its business to competition, Chowdry suggests in a research note.
Price Pressures
Salesforce.com is facing challenges in other ways, Nucleus Research Vice President Rebecca Wettemann told CRM Buyer -- particularly in competing on price.
"As Oracle comes out with Fusion and Microsoft pushes Dynamics CRM, Salesforce.com will have to show why it delivers better value," she said.
One way Salesforce.com is trying to address its higher pricing is through its recently introduced Social Enterprise License Agreement, a type of all-you-can-eat deal, noted Wettemann.
"The goal is to encourage people to try out new features such as Chatter and to extend Salesforce.com to more users within the enterprise," she said.
Leader in Product Innovation
That said, there is little doubt that Salesforce.com is the leader in the cloud CRM space at the moment and will continue to press ahead with product innovation, Wettemann added.
"We will continue to see Salesforce.com pushing hard on the mobile front and more fully integrating what they have done with Data.com, as well as recent acquisitions."
Salesforce.com did not respond to our request to comment for this story.
