Archives of data and stimuli
From PsychWiki - A Collaborative Psychology Wiki
The Psychonomic Society has an excellent archive of norms, stimuli, and data from articles in recent Psychonomic Society publications. Think what a benefit it would be to the field if more journals had repositories for collaborative use. Until then, PsychWiki can help since anyone can edit the pages and add materials, or add links to different databases or archives so we have a master list of repositories. Plus, PsychWiki provides a way to communicate and discuss the pros/cons associated with using the various verbal, visual, pictorial, or auditory stimuli listed below.
Links to archives of data/stimuli
- Novel Object and Unusual Name (NOUN) Database
- Database of images of novel, unusual objects for experimental research. The database includes 64 primary stimuli and a collection of 10 novel categories, each including three exemplars.
- Psychonomic Society Archive of Norms, Stimuli, and Data
- Psychonomic Society Archive serves as a repository for electronic materials of general utility to researchers in psychology, including (a) Norms for verbal and pictorial stimuli that may be useful to other researchers, (b) Databases or data archives for model testing and evaluation, (c) Technical supplements related to data analyses, equipment calibration, etc., (d) Program source code for statistical analysis, stimulus generation, and similar applications, (e) Visual and auditory stimuli for use by other researchers, or (f) Other tabular or graphic information that is too extensive for paper publication.
- EPAA journal
- EPAA journal adopted the policy that any one publishing a quantitative study in the journal would have to agree to archive all the raw data at the journal website so that the data could be downloaded by any reader. See a discussion of this journal at the end of at end of this paper on the Gene V. Glass website.
- English Lexicon Project
- English Lexicon Project provides access to a large set of lexical characteristics, along with behavioral data from visual lexical decision and naming studies of 40,481 words and 40,481 nonwords. The naming and lexical decision data are currently being collected from six testing Universities. To date, they have collected 2,752,698 reaction time measurements from 816 subjects in the lexical decision experiment. They have also collected 1,125,880 experimental measurements from 444 subjects in the naming experiment.
- MRC Psycholinguistic Database
- The MRC psycholinguistic database is a machine-usable dictionary containing words with up to 26 linguistic and psycholinguistic attributes for each, including information on the spelling, syntactic category and number of letters, as well as information on the phonetics, syllabic count, stress patterns and aforementioned criteria affecting comprehension.
- WordNet
- WordNet is an online lexical reference system whose design is inspired by current psycholinguistic theories of human lexical memory. English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets.
- Word Association Thesaurus
- The Edinburgh Associative Thesaurus (EAT) is a set of word association norms showing the counts of word association as collected from subjects. This is not a developed semantic network such as WordNet, but empirical association data.
- University of South Florida Free Association Norms
- This site provides the largest database of free association ever collected in the United States available to interested researchers and scholars. More than 6,000 participants produced nearly three-quarters of a million responses to 5,019 stimulus words. Participants were asked to write the first word that came to mind that was meaningfully related or strongly associated to the presented word on the blank shown next to each item. This procedure is called a discrete association task because each participant is asked to produce only a single associate to each word.
- ARC Nonword database
- A database of nonwords.
- International Picture-Naming Project
- Database of pictures, and norms for the time taken to name them.
- Compendium of face databases
- A collection of links to databases of face images.
- CAL/PAL Face Database
- The CAL/PAL Face Database was developed at the University of Michigan by Meredith Minear and Denise Park. It includes over 1000 color photos of young, middle-aged, and older adults. This link is the same as the following link.
- Productive Aging Laboratory Face Database
- A database of male and female faces that can be sorted by age and emotion.
- Productive Aging Laboratory Culture Database: Pictures
- A Cross-Culturally Standardized Set of Pictures for Younger and Older Adults: American and Chinese Norms for Name Agreement, Concept Agreement and Familiarity
- Productive Aging Laboratory Culture Database: Categories
- A comparison of item responses to 105 verbal categories as a function of Age and Culture in China and the US.
- Psychological Image Collection at Stirling
- This is a collection of images useful for research in Psychology, such as sets of faces and objects. They are free for research use. The images in the database are organised into SETS, with each set often representing a separate experimental study.
- University of Florida Media Core
- The Media core develops, catalogs, evaluates, and distributes various types of media (stimuli) that can be used as prompts to affective experience in research projects.
- Facial Recognition Technology (FERET) Database
- The FERET program ran from 1993 through 1997 with the mission to develop automatic face recognition capabilities. The FERET image corpus was assembled to support the program, and consists of 14051 eight-bit grayscale images of human heads with views ranging from frontal to left and right profiles.
- Multimodal stimulus set (MULTIMOST)
- MULTIMOST consists of auditory and visual stimuli of natural and man-made objects for multisensory research. MULTIMOST and normative ratings are freely available to non-profit researchers. Go to 'Downloads' for further information.
- Radboud Faces Database (RaFD)
- RaFD is a set of pictures of 67 models (including Caucasian males and females, Caucasian children, both boys and girls, and Moroccan Dutch males) displaying 8 emotional expressions. The RaFD in an initiative of the Behavioural Science Institute of the Radboud University Nijmegen, which is located in Nijmegen (the Netherlands), and can be used freely for non-commercial scientific research by researchers who work for an officially accredited university.

Michael M, Santa Fe NM August 25, 2018
Like all first time customers, I wasn't sure what to expect. When I received the earrings I was blown away! I took them to to a local jeweler for an unbiased evaluation and they were exactly as ordered. I really can't say enough about the excellent service and the GREAT DEAL I got on the earrings. They truly exceeded my expectations and my wife is thrilled! I will definitely be a repeat customer! Highly recommended!

As previously reported, Taylor Swift and Harry Styles were on three straight dates this week in NYC, two of them resulting in sleepovers. On Wednesday night Taylor was in Nashville for the Grammy award nomination event. By last night though she was back in New York, and Harry was with her. And she introduced him to her famous friends, Emma Stone and Dianna Agron.
They all had dinner at the Crosby Street Hotel and someone instragrammed a photo -- it's attached below. Taylor is sitting across from Emma. As you can see, they look like they're having a great time. Harry is fully rolling with Hollywood now. And I like this move from Taylor, folding the boy into her life for a change.
After hanging out with her crew, Taylor and Harry went back to the hotel. Together. For another sleepover. OMG, I might be obsessed with them. And just in time since Selena and Bieber are on their way down.
Taylor and One Direction are both performing at the Jingle Ball tonight at Madison Square Garden. So is The Wanted who are apparently dragging around that loser Lindsay Lohan these days and one of them has a beef with a 1D. And JB's there too which means, sh-t, we may end up with a JB-Selena/Harry-Taylor double at the end of the night. Right now it's good to be 14.

Was anyone else totally uncomfortable with Joe Gorga's expressions of his sexuality on last night's episode? It's unclear if the no-sex-for-four-days subplot was the real deal or simply a machination on the part of the couple to make them appear endearing, but either way, it came off as crass and inappropriate—which, granted, is kind of par for the course with them. While his aggressive attitude toward his wife—in demanding sex—and his repeated sexual discussions in front of his children (during bath time no less) were both icky, none of that was nearly as disturbing as his comparison between popping an angry white head and busting a nut—both of which apparently shoot across the room for him.

Matthew E. White | 16/12/13
Last night, Matthew E. White and his marvellous band wrapped up what has been a banner year with a hometown show in Richmond, Virginia and today we celebrate further with the release of the "Human Style" video.
One of the highlights of Big Inner: Outer Face Edition, "Human Style" is a simmering, silken come-on of a pop song - simultaneously boasting some of White's most direct songwriting and his most experimental production to date. The video, directed by Tony Forgey, collects some sumptuous behind-the-scenes footage and photography from the Outer Face recording sessions in White's much-celebrated Richmond, VA Spacebomb studio - offering a unique insight into a unique artistic community and their creative process.
Watch "Human Style" here.
Meanwhile, Big Inner, continues to win hearts and minds in the end of year polls including the Guardian, Rough Trade and Resident for whom it is their #1 album of the year.
Finally, follow Matt's great Tumblr for all things Big Inner, Outer Face & Spacebomb.

Mahara Hui UK 2016 - Cancelled
It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we have taken the difficult decision today to cancel the Mahara Hui UK event for 2016. Unfortunately registrations for this event have fallen significantly short of expectation and the result would be an event that's more like a ghost town than a vibrant community celebration. Whilst we have aimed to facilitate a robust, interesting and well rounded Mahara Hui event, with opportunities for sharing of ideas and experiences, in practice we have failed to achieve 40 registrations for the event which in 2015 was attended by 80 delegates.
We would like to give huge thanks to our Keynote Speakers, Presenters, Review Panel members, Sunderland University and all other Mahara advocates for their continued support and effort on behalf of the Mahara platform and UK community events.
As project maintainers for the Mahara open source platform, we at Catalyst and Mahara.org are hugely disappointed that the response has been so low, and in particular by the lack of response by the many vendors and suppliers who are listed as Mahara partners in the UK and Europe. As an open source community based project, Mahara needs the community in order to evolve, develop and succeed. We are surprised by the significant reduction in interest and support for this year's event after the success and growth of previous UK Huis. Possibly this event was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, but we welcome feedback and suggestions from all regarding any factors that personally influenced you when weighing up whether or not to attend this year. We would like to recognise the Mahara users and institutions who were to be represented at this year's event and thank them especially for their continued Mahara support, their submissions of presentation proposals and their ongoing use of the Mahara platform.
Looking forward, Catalyst and Mahara.org strongly believe that Mahara deserves a dedicated conference event in the UK or Europe, to continue providing the opportunities for the community and advocates to meet, exchange ideas and collaborate. Looking forward to 2017, the Mahara Hui Europe event is scheduled to take place in Kassel, Germany on the 1st and 2nd of September 2017. Whilst a little further afield for the UK based community, maybe it's time that Mahara moved to a larger and more all encompassing European event. Catalyst are committed to supporting the platform and it's UK and European community and welcome your feedback on this.
We reiterate once again that Catalyst and Mahara.org are hugely disappointed to make this decision, we apologise for the inconveniences this will cause and welcome your feedback or discussions via the email address below. All event tickets purchased will be refunded immediately and in full via the Eventbrite site.
Please contact us with your questions, concerns or feedback, and any suggestion that you may have regarding the reason(s) for this year's low registrations, on: firstname.lastname@example.com
Kind regards,
Mahara Hui UK team

Brown- Compassion Suede
Ultra Micro-Fiber Suede 1.4 x 3mm
Unit: spool
Now we have a loving alternative to animal products. It looks like the suede used by so many jewelry artisans, but this is a thoughtful decision to do something less harmful to our environment.
Design Hint: Compassion leather is easy to knot, but we won't recommend it for jewelry with adjustable knots; it doesn't have the slide-factor that real leather has. So, to close it off at the end, flat crimp a 3x3 crimp bead. It's easy and it looks great.
Sold in 3 yard increments.

so yes, i listened to you guys and read through the whole API documentation for the JOptionPane.
i found how to add components to it, Jrmonkey97 (or something) already told me to do it that way but i didn't listen..
well i made an object like:
label4 = new JLabel("Check this out"); label5 = new JLable("I dont know how to add this label"); object[] test = {label4, label5}; JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, test[0], "Log in", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
so YES i managed to add that label to the JOptionpane, my only question is: how do i add multiple labels/textfields/passwordfields to that optionpane, because in the API it says that you should be able to do:
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, test[0], test[1], "log in" , JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
but that doesnt work, it gives me this error:
The method showMessageDialog(Component, Object, String, int, Icon) in the type JOptionPane is not applicable for the arguments (null, Object, Object, String, int)
so yeah, if anyone would be able to tell me how to add more components from that array in a JOptionpane, that would be amazing!
thanks in advance

Detroit measures muscle in how fast it takes to accelerate from 0 to 60 m.p.h.; by that gauge the government's cash-for-clunkers program (formally known as the Car Allowance Rebate System) ranks right up there with a turbocharged Corvette.
Though it took the Department of Transportation a month to right the rules, once it got going the clunkers program quickly burned through more than $800 million of government cash and helped sell roughly 250,000 cars at retail. Congress felt a bit of whiplash as sales took off, but then quickly pumped another $2 billion of funding into the program to take it to November 2009.
Though deficit hawks are unhappy about the government's largesse, supporters of the clunkers program say it helps save fuel, clean up the environment, stimulate the economy and bring some stability to an industry rocked by the financial crisis. Though some may take issue with the environmental claims, the boost to automakers is already in the books. Companies such as Chrysler, Ford and Toyota (which recently posted a $4.4 billion loss for its fiscal year) now report that their inventories are at the lowest point since the middle of the decade.
That's good news for automakers, but it may slim choices and deals for consumers readying to drag their old clunkers out of the garage. And there are plenty more of those Americans own some 250 million passenger cars, with a median car age of 9.4 years as of 2008, according to figures from R.L. Polk & Co. of Southfield, Mi.

Fully-automatic and correspondingly cost-efficient production and transfer lines are developed through the connection of multiple grinding and polishing plants with transport and pull-over systems as well as loading magazines and pallet changers. This enables both autonomous (unmanned) processing for up to an entire shift and its connection to other mechanical processing stages.
Decisive for the smooth function and thus maximum profitability and efficiency of the automated plant and production lines are tailor-made feed solutions. They achieve quick correctly positioned provision, acceptance and transmission of a variety of workpieces. All that remains for consideration are not only the "paths" but the mild treatment of the components to be ground and polished.

Cuneiform Digital Library Journal

§0. Acknowledgements
§1. Introduction
§1.2. Most of the objects were gifts to the museum; their history prior to that is uncertain. Donors included Catherine W. Pierce (1938.94 [§4.3]) and Mrs. W. Stewart Hamaker (1963.108 [§5.1]). The group of mostly Old Assyrian tablets acquired in 1983 [1983.97-1983.109; §4.1, §5.2, §6.1, §6.2, §6.3, §6.4, §6.5, §6.6, §6.7, §6.8, §6.9, §6.10, §6.11] had been in the possession of the antiquarian and dealer Charles D. Kelekian before they were given to the museum by his daughter Nanette Rodney Kelekian. An Old Assyrian and a Hittite text came to the museum from the collection of Louise M. Bates and George E. Bates (1992.256.6 [§7.1]; 1992.256.7 [§6.12]). George E. Bates, a professor of investment management at Harvard University, was also a senior adviser to the University of Istanbul, Turkey, and to the Tunisian government. He built a sizeable collection of Anatolian, Syrian, and Near Eastern artifacts.
§1.3. Two more Old Assyrian texts (2000.196 [§6.13] and 2000.197) were formerly in the Hans Silvius von Aulock collection and were sold to the museum through Christie's, New York on June 13, 2000 (lot no. 556). The seal impressions on both these objects have been published previously, as nos. 334 and 335 respectively, in Hans Henning van der Osten, Altorientalische Siegelsteine der Sammlung Hans Silvius von Aulock (1957). The foundation nail of Enmetena (2000.274 [§3.1]) was given by Jerome Eisenberg. It was one of fifteen foundation nails from a Canadian private collection assembled during the earlier 20th century, sold at Sotheby's, New York on June 14, 2000.
§1.4. Only one of the Ur III texts (1953.110 [§4.2]), which came to the museum after being in the possession of Edgar J. Banks, is specifically noted as a "Jokha tablet", suggesting that Banks acquired it at Tell Jokha (ancient Umma).
§1.5. The edition and copy of the fragment of the Hittite ritual text, 1992.256.6 [§7.1], is provided by Daniel Schwemer. The text of the Old Assyrian tablet 2000.197 [§6.14] is currently being edited by Thomas Sturm (Münster), and will be published by him in a forthcoming article. This manuscript therefore provides editions of twenty of the twenty-one cuneiform texts accessioned by the Harvard Art Museum. The texts are presented in chronological order.
§2. Catalogue of HAM tablets
§3. ED IIIb Period text
§3.1.2. This clay nail or cone inscription is well-known from other examples and commemorates the building of the E-muš temple of Dumuzi in Bad-Tibira (modern: Tell al-Mada'in). The final seven lines also record the treaty between Enmetena and Lugal-kineš-dudu. For the publication of this inscription, see RIME 1 Enmetena 3 (E184.108.40.206). While Frayne interprets muš3 as "radiance" (Akkadian zīmu), translating the full name of the temple as "House – Radiance of the Land," (e2-muš3-kalam-ma), this is unlikely. The term muš3 is well attested in connection with temples and seems to denote the "precinct," (Akkadian mātu) the general area of the complex in which the temple of the god was erected (see Heimpel 1972: 286-287; for most attestations of muš3, see Sjöberg & Bergmann 1969: 54-56).
§4. Ur III Texts
§4.1.2. This text is inscribed on an unbroken clay envelope with multiple impressions of the same seal across most of the surface. The text on the envelope is provided here and records the receipt of dried bitumen for a new boat. The seal of En-dingir-mu may be found on two other texts from Umma (Nik 2,
435 and Umma
93) both dating to the 34th year of Šulgi's reign and both, like this text, dealing with the receipt of goods from the governor of Umma. The provenience of this text is based on analogy with the other texts bearing En-dingir-mu's seal. It should be assumed that the month name, "ezem-mah", usually associated with Drehem or Ur, is from the Reichskalendar.
§4.2. Receipt of barley flour
§4.2.2. Whole, unbroken Ur III administrative tablet with multiple impressions of the same seal across its surface. The text is a standard receipt for barley flour, but it should be noted that the name on the seal impression differs from the name of the owner of the seal given in the text. For other examples sealed by Aramu with this seal inscription, see: SAT 3, 1534; SAT 3, 1318; AUB cat 01.
§4.3. Receipt of reeds
§4.3.2. Whole, unbroken Ur III administrative tablet with multiple impressions of the same seal across the surface. For other examples of Alulu receiving reeds from Ur-Emah in the same month, see MVN 13, 152; SAT 3, 1917, 1925. For the following month, Ibbi-Suen 1/x, see: MVN 13, 147-151, 153; YOS 4, 80; AR RIM 4, 34; SAT 3, 1921; Ontario 2, 378. For a detailed discussion of Alulu's activities see more recently Widell 2009, §3.
§5. Old Babylonian Texts
§5.1.2. This is another example of a well-known inscription of Sîn-kāšid, commemorating the building of his palace and the building of the Eanna temple. For the publication of this inscription see RIME 4, Sîn-kāšid 4 (E18.104.22.168.).
§5.2. Sale of house-plot
§5.2.2. Partly broken envelope containing complete tablet. The text is a typical example of an Old Babylonian legal document recording the sale of a house-plot. The transcription given here is a composite text based on both the tablet and envelope. Part of the envelope is missing allowing one to view some of the text on the reverse of the tablet, but the case itself is too fragile for the tablet to be fully removed. The tablet itself appears whole and unbroken, though the surfaces of both are eroded and flaking. Lines obv. 10-12 are visible on the lower edge of the tablet and lines rev. 1-9 may be seen on the reverse. The case has lines 1-11 and then the date formula, rev. 9. It is unclear whether there are any divergences between the versions on each.
§6. Old Assyrian Texts
§6.1.2. Fragment comprising the upper half of tablet; most of what is preserved of the reverse is uninscribed. This text is an important example of one of the official waklum-letters describing a legal verdict. Most similar among the other extant letters is ICK 1,
182, a letter addressed from the waklum to Kaneš, dealing with a verdict given in the hamrum. There are other examples about the city giving a verdict using the same basic formula with either less detail (ARK 3,
94 rev. 6: a-lu-um di2-nam i-di3-ma) or more (kt 88/k 1059 1-4, see below note on obv. 5). Both the latter examples are records of legal decisions rather than letters as they lack the standard introductory formula of a letter. For other waklum-letters see Çeçen 1990.
§6.2. Caravan account
§6.2.2. Whole, unbroken, slightly pink-colored tablet which provides an account the distribution of a quantity of textiles. The nishatum-tax (lines 3, 12), an import tax imposed by the local Anatolian rulers on the Assyrian caravans is calculated at roughly 5%, which is borne out by the figures given here. The balance, paid in silver, is approximated at 15 shekels per textile.
obv. 6: The sign read as iz- is clearly written UR, but this must be assumed to be a scribal mistake.
§6.3. Deposit of silver
§6.3.2. This whole, unbroken tablet is a typical example of a "transport-contract" concerning a consignment of silver to be sent, most probably, from Kaneš to Aššur. For general discussion of these contracts, see Larsen 1967: 44-70.
§6.4. Caravan account
§6.4.2. A pale, slightly pink-coloured fragment describing a shipment of different kinds of textiles and perhaps also tin (rev. 7').
§6.5. Letter
§6.5.2. Brown fragment of tablet preserving most of obverse of a letter.
§6.6. Letter
§6.6.2. Slightly pink fragment of tablet preserving part of obverse. This text is unfortunately mostly broken and the signs on the remaining fragment are quite shallow and worn. Given the participants, the mention of textiles is very appropriate.
§6.7. Letter?
§6.7.2. Brown fragment of tablet preserving only the very edge; from the curve of the surface of the fragment, it appears to be the upper edge. The text is too fragmentary to identify, but may be a letter.
§6.8. Consignment of antimony
§6.8.2. Pink-colored tablet which is missing the upper right corner. This text contains information about at least two different transactions: 1) Payment for some item entrusted for Išar-bēlī; 2) A consignment of antimony, presumably for transport. Lines rev. 8 - l.e. 1 seem to represent a third transaction or witnessed claim.
§6.9. Deposit of silver
§6.9.2. Whole, unbroken tablet with rectangular shape. This short text is quite atypical for its type. It is likely a transport contract (see Larsen 1967: 44-70 for further discussion), describing the deposit of silver belonging to Šalim-Ištar with Ikunum, as witnessed by Aššur-idī. The syntax is unusual as the witness is named in the middle, rather than after the transaction and the statement of ownership, presumably referring to the silver, is placed awkwardly at the end. Other texts are known to include a final clause following the witness(es) (e.g. CCT 5, 40b), but one would still expect the witness to be named after the main verb in line 5.
§6.10. Fragment of envelope
§6.10.2. Reddish, curved fragment of envelope which has a seal impression on the exterior and the impression of some signs on the interior surface. This seal impression was first published in van der Osten's Altorientalische Siegelsteine der Sammlung Hans Silvius von Aulock (1957) no. 334. The design, in the Old Assyrian style, is identical to that found on the left edge of 2000.196 (§6.13) and may be identified as the seal of Buzāzu, a well-known participant in the trade network. For additional examples and bibliography see VS 26, p. 46 no. 3.
§6.11. Debt of silver
§6.11.2. Whole, unbroken tablet which displays some erosion and encrustation on surface; the edges in particular are almost illegible. It is unclear whether this is a letter, with the introductory formula absent, or a legal text. The latter is more probable if we consider the traces on the edges of the tablet to be the names of witnesses.
§6.12. Loan of silver
§6.12.2. Whole and unbroken, this tablet is a standard example of an Old Assyrian loan document. For detailed discussion of this type of text see Rosen 1977.
§6.13. Fragment of envelope
§6.13.2. Corner fragment of a clay envelope, preserving part of three sides, with text and two different seal impressions on the exterior surface and the impression of the tablet formerly contained within on the interior surface. The two distinct seal impressions were both published previously as no. 334 in van der Osten's Altorientalische Siegelsteine der Sammlung Hans Silvius von Aulock (1957).
§6.14. Letter from Aššur-lamassī to Šū-Bēlum
Square clay tablet and envelope. The tablet is whole and inscribed on both surfaces. The envelope is partially destroyed, but preserves multiple impressions of the seal of Aššur-lamassī, the sender.
§7. Hittite Text
Copy courtesy of D. Schwemer
§7.1.2. Small fragment of a middle-sized one- or two-columned Hittite library tablet (surface slightly curved), New Hittite script (13th century BC). No duplicate of the preserved portions of text has yet been found. Hittite passages are transliterated in italic type, Hurrian text in roman type.

I cannot express the thanks to you all and your team for the amazing work on our publications. From the beginning stage to the timeliness of completion and product quality, I'm truly impressed and so happy to return to you all for business. I look forward to all our future projects with MPB. Thanks so much! Matt
I wanted to share with you the final product! Everybody loves it. It looks so professional and goes well with the Mission, Vision, and Values signs nearby. Thank you so much for all you have done for Washington State!
Morgantown Printing and Binding does quality work, uses fine products and has a talented staff. They have a long history of producing all forms of printed paper goods. From personal experience, they produced my wedding invitations, custom invitations for 2 Balls of the Year for Mon General Hospital that I was Chair for and advertising materials for Coni and Franc.
I just wanted to let you know that we took 1st & 2nd Place at the OSU conference! The posters you all produced for us looked so great and professional compared to others. Thanks for doing a wonderful job and we'll be using MPB again next year! Thanks, Brad
MPB is extraordinarily helpful, individualized and patient. My organization has used MPB for many years and will continue doing so because of their customer dedication and product quality. We love MPB and are grateful for all that they do for us and our 1000+ employees... and that's a LOT for them to do for us!!
Just wanted to say that the posters looked great and we got several compliments on how well they were made. One poster placed 2nd and the other 3rd, so it was definitely a success! Thanks again for the great work you and your staff do. I will definitely continue to utilize your services in the future! Thanks, Brad Holben
Thank you, guys and all the fine people that helped make our Admissions folder a beautiful success. Admissions loves it and more important Creative loves it. The whole package looks good. You were patient with us on many levels and I appreciate your attention to our details. We will be producing another folder in the next month. And Chris has probably already contacted you all with the volleyball media Guide.
We received the folders this morning and they are absolutely amazing!! We are so happy with them! They turned out beautiful – the President and Cherie at the Foundation are so pleased with them. Again, thank you all so very much – and please extend our thank you and appreciation to everyone involved!
Tammy and I wanted to tell you how good the travel pieces look! We love them and I'm sure Lynne will too when she gets back and sees them. They were delivered today and just in time, the first counselor goes on the road tomorrow so Admissions was Very happy to get them today. Thanks Again!!
These printed beautifully! Thanks SO much. You all really helped us out with this job and it was EASY to work with you. So grateful for your wonderful work and service!
I work in a motorcycle shop and one of the mechanics wanted his toolbox wrapped. They arrived to give the free estimate and to get the dimensions of the toolbox. I had him get the dimensions of mine as well. I wanted a custom photo made which they did for me and exceeded my expectations. They were very quick to respond to my emailed questions and even installed my wrap before I was expecting them too. I would recommend MPB to everyone, my experience was very pleasant and the result was beautiful. I can't give this company enough credit. I will be using MPB's services again.

Astrantia major subsp. involucrata 'Shaggy'
Common Name: Masterwort
Genus: Astrantia
Species: major subsp. involucrata
Cultivar: 'Shaggy'
Category: Perennials
Growth Rate: Average
Features: Makes good cut flowers, Has interesting foliage, Long flowering period
|Hardiness: Hardy
|Height: 0.90 m (90 cm)
|Sun/Shade: Full sun or Partial shade
|Spread: 0.45 m (45 cm)
|Foliage Type: Deciduous
|Flower Colour: White
|Foliage Colour: Green
|Flowering Period: June to August
Soil Type: Normal/Loam or Clay/Heavy
Soil Moisture: Moist, but well drained
Wonderful white pincushion flowers with a collar of extra long green tipped petals on wiry branched stems above deeply divided dark green leaves. This astrantia is thought to have originated in Margery Fish's garden at East Lambrook in Somerset and christened there and then. It is one of the best pale varieties with large flowerheads and more deeply cut foliage. Like all astrantia it can cope with a range of soils from alkaline to heavy damp soil in dappled shade.
Astrantias have been cultivated in Britain since the 16th century and have numerous common names such as melancholy gentleman, Hattie's pincushion and the more well known masterwort.
- Garden care: Incorporate plenty of organic matter when planting and water well in dry weather especially newly established plants. Lift and divide large clumps in early spring and apply a generous 5-7 cm mulch of well-rotted manure or garden compost around the plant. Divided specimens may take some time to establish since they don't like having their roots disturbed.

Good Day to everyone! This week over on the Paper Cupcake's challenge blog the challenge it to use the following chart to come up with an element combination. You are to pick 3 in a row like a tic-tac-toe and then use those 3 elements on your card at least once. You can find the challenge here.
The image was a freebie this week there as well and is called "Sent with Love" by Paper Cupcakes. The three elements I chose on the chart were: something punched (flowers & border); Ribbon and bling. I did my card in earthy colors which I just loved how it turned out. I think this image is quite versatile. I think this card could easily be used as a valentine card, anniversary card, shower card if you changed the sentiment it could be used as a sympathy also. Really this image is just endless in it's uses, plus it is an easy cut out. The ticket (sentiment) is from Paper Cupcakes as well and can be found here under the Valentine Tickets.
Well, that's it for me for now. We had an extremely busy week & weekend and it's after 11:00PM now and I am overly tired and heading for bed now! So, have a wonderful week!

Catch me at:
The List!
Overall, this year has been a pretty good TechEd. I've always thought '05 & '08 (both in Orlando) were the best I've attended and '10 was probably my least favorite (this was more due to the weather than anything.)
This one is right in the middle, maybe leaning towards good rather than bad. There's a lot of really excellent content on Windows Phone and Azure, plenty of interesting side events (including the WP7 Hackathon – which overall was awesome.)
The facilities are nice and OMG huge. Until I found the super secret shortcut, it was taking me nearly a half hour EACH way to walk from the expo hall to the dining hall. Everything is clean, well stocked, well staffed. Serious no complaints there.
The weather has been magnificent, if not unseasonably cold for Atlanta in May (fine with me… I'm loving it.)
The only complaint, and it's a big one, are the vendors. They seem way more aggressive this year. Not ALL of the vendors, most are fine, but some of them are completely obnoxious. Accosting people as they walk by, screaming incredibly loud during their presentations and giveaways and just generally being a nuisance. It's gotten to the point where people are deliberately avoiding eye-contact when they walk past the booths because they don't want to deal with the nuisance of explaining for the 50th time that they don't want to take a survey so they can get a stupid blinky ball and they don't want you to scan their badge so you can email them a million times just so they can get a 1 in 15000 chance of winning a Harley. It's almost enough to keep me out of the expo hall. If I didn't have friends and colleagues in there, it probably would.
It seems the hardware vendors and the azure vendors are the worst offenders, by far.
Aside from that, it's been a good year.

Schneiderlin just got his asshole ripped open by NBCSN for the goal. Yikes.
Schneiderlin has been poor. Doesnt seem to be able to make a forward pass..
I'm confused. According to everyone on here, the reason we were doing badly this season was because:- We were playing more than 1 number 10 at the same time nope, Siggy should play instead of Schneiderlin, we have no one in midfield who can break through or pass- We had no width still have no width, we have 2 number tens playing as right/left wingers- We weren't starting Niasse cant blame the strikers when we have 2 shit house defenders who dont know how to defend- We needed to drop Rooney or we'd have 6 players in the middle of the pitch So all those problems have been fixed, and we're still losing and creating hardly any clear cut chances. What gives?
fuck itanother cheeky tenner going on us to win , 7/2 absolute shithouse odds though
Don't waste the tenner at those odds
Aside from Williams who is sadly past it Schneiderlin is the one I have the biggest problem with. Turned into a nothing player.

The Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) Investor Advisory Committee held its inaugural meeting Tuesday at SEC headquarters in Washington, and the consensus among the diverse group of members was that their top goal would be to focus on protection of retail investors and to boost their confidence in the markets.
But SEC Chairwoman Mary Schapiro told AdvisorOne as the committee broke for a lunch break that the committee would "no doubt" also be instrumental in providing some valuable insights to the SEC as it continues to craft its rule to put brokers under a fiduciary mandate. "I hope we can take advantage of all this talent in the room," she said.
Indeed, committee member Barbara Roper, director of investor protection for the Consumer Federation of America, told AdvisorOne that while the fiduciary duty debate is "not central" to most committee members' agenda—as they instead expressed a desire to focus on the needs of retail investors—"there is no issue of higher importance for retail investors than how we regulate the intermediaries [such as the advisors and broker-dealers] they rely on."
Staff members from various SEC divisions also pointed to other areas of investor protection that committee members should focus on: equity crowdfunding, which the SEC says is still "illegal" until the agency crafts rules; target date funds; and identity theft.
In her prepared remarks, Schapiro noted the "variety of backgrounds and perspectives" the various committee members bring to the table, which she said "is a great strength but probably also a challenge." The goal of the committee—which will set its own agenda—she said, is to bring the "investor perspective" to the commission. The Investor Advisory Committee's work, Schapiro said, will be "supplemented" by the SEC's Office of Investor Advocate. The SEC is currently seeking someone to head this office, Schapiro said.
The SEC created an Investor Advisory Committee in 2009, but the Dodd-Frank Act replaced that committee with the current one. Another committee was formed in the 1990s under former SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt.
SEC Commissioner Luis Aguilar (left) noted during his opening remarks at the meeting that the Committee will provide "input on regulatory priorities, on disclosure and other regulatory issues, on initiatives to protect investor interest, and on initiatives to promote investor confidence and the integrity of the securities marketplace."
Aguilar urged committee members to "focus on the needs of retail investors," as these are the investors who "directly or indirectly provide the bulk of all capital invested in securities." He cited reports that suggest "many individual investors feel like they are under siege," noting one recent survey that said only 15% of Americans trust the stock market.
"Investors continued to withdraw cash from U.S. equity funds in 2011, continuing a trend that has seen a total outflow of a half a trillion dollars from domestic equity funds since 2006," Aguilar said. Some of this shift, he continued, "may be a natural result of the aging population of baby boomers. But research suggests there may also be a decline in the willingness of even younger investors to invest in the stock market." While the reasons for the withdrawal from the stock market "are many," concerns sparked by the May 2010 "flash crash," the recent debacles of the Facebook IPO, and a market structure that is "increasingly complex and opaque" have no doubt contributed to investors' angst, he said. "All these factors contribute to a sense that Wall Street is rigged against the individual investor, damaging confidence and impeding capital formation."
Committee member Steve Wallman, founder and CEO of FOLIOfn and a former SEC commissioner, agreed that "the capital markets, for many [investors] I think, have let them down."
Committee members, who will serve a four-year term, used their inaugural meeting to go over bylaws and appoint a chairman, Joseph Dear, chief investment officer (CIO) of the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPers). "We must find opportunities where we can agree, and advance an agenda," Dear told other committee members.
Committee member James Glassman, executive director of the George W. Bush Institute, told Dear that he wanted to be "assured" that the committee's agenda would focus on retail investors. "Yes," Dear replied.
Craig Goettsch, Director of Investor Education and Consumer Outreach for the Iowa Insurance Division, on behalf of the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA), was appointed vice chairman.
J. Robert Brown, Jr., Law Professor at the University of Denver was appointed secretary, while Jean Setzfand, Director of Financial Security for the AARP, was appointed assistant secretary.
Several SEC divisions were on hand at the meeting to give committee members a rundown of the top issues they're seeing that face investors.
The chief counsel of the Division of Corporation Finance, Thomas Kim, told the committee that as part of the JOBS Act, the division is grappling with the issue of equity crowdfunding, which allows investors of any net worth to fund entrepreneurial startups. "Crowdfunding is not yet legal until the commission appoints rules," Kim said, adding that a timeframe for a rulemaking on equity crowdfunding is "challenging."
While crowdfunding has been going on for a number of years as a form of raising money through donations from donors, the SEC must formalize rules for equity crowdfunding, which, as set out in the JOBS Act, allows capital raising through investors.

How A Portable Pool Fits Into A Deck
The pictures below are all custom made decks. They are offered here to give you an idea of what you can do with your pool.
Step By Step Deck Building Made Easy.
This process is the same for Portable Pools Or Above Ground Pools
|The floor framing around the pool consists of 18 trapezoidal floor-joist frames–4-sided frames with two parallel sides and two sides that angle toward each other. The dimensions for building the frames are contained in the plans. Begin by using 2 x 6s to build 17 identical frames. The 18th frame will be built to fit after the other frames are assembled around the pool. To speed up the job of building the individual frames, use galvanized-metal corner brackets to attach the four perimeter boards. Then, use joist hangers to install the center support joist.
|The floor-joist frames are supported by a series of 4 x 4 posts set in the concrete pier blocks. Begin by setting the first pair of blocks directly onto the ground beside the pool. You don't have to remove the grass, but if the ground is uneven, use a shovel to level it out. Position the first pier block so its center is 12 in. from the pool wall. Place the second pier farther away from the pool, with its center 18 in. from the center of the first.
|Next, stand two 4 x 4 posts in the square sockets molded into the piers. Lay a 4-ft. level across the top cap of the pool–the coping–and mark a level line across the 4 x 4s. Next, remove the posts and measure down from each line a distance equal to the thickness of the pool coping, plus 1-1/2 in. for the 2 x 6 decking, 5-1/2 in. for the 2 x 6 floor frame and 1/2 in. for expansion. Make a mark at this position on each post, and cut them to length. Now you can put the posts back onto the piers, but make sure they're in their original positions.
|Repeat this procedure for the next pair of piers and posts. Refer to the plan or use one of the assembled floor-joist frames to position the pier blocks. Once the second pair of posts is cut to size, set them into the piers and place a floor-joist frame on top. Drive 2-1/2-in. deck screws down at an angle through the frame and into the tops of the posts. Continue to work your way around the pool, setting pier blocks, posts and frames. After installing the 17 assembled frames, measure and cut the last one to fit the remaining space.
|Complete the pool-deck frame by screwing 2 x 4 diagonal braces to the 4 x 4 posts. The bracing isn't required if the deck is less than 30 in. high.
Now set the pier blocks and posts for the 10 x 18-ft. sun deck. Again, refer to the plans for the exact positioning. The 42 piers are arranged in 11 rows spaced 24 in. on center. Once the posts are cut to size and set in the piers, install the 2 x 6 floor joists. Fasten the joists by screwing down at an angle into the tops of the posts with 2-1/2-in. deck screws.
|One common technique used for decking around a circular pool requires each board to be tapered so they all radiate from the center of the pool. The method we used is a lot easier. Cut several 2 x 6s into 4-ft. lengths with one end of each cut at 80° instead of square. Slip the angled end of the first decking board under the pool's coping, keeping it at least 1/2 in. away from the pool wall. Set the long edge of the deck board directly on the joint running between two adjoining floor-joist frames. Fasten the board to the joists with 2-1/2-in. deck screws. Lay the next board tight against the first one and screw it in place. (When the boards shrink, a 1/4-in. gap will appear between them.) Continue installing deck boards in this manner, with the angled end slipped under the coping, until you come to the next floor-joist frame. Lay a deck board in place and mark where it overlaps the joint between the two frames. Cut the board along the line and screw it in place. Trim the next two boards in the same manner, then go back to installing full-length boards again. Once all the deck boards are fastened down, use a circular saw to trim off their overhanging ends so they're flush with the perimeter joists.
|Now move over to the sun deck and start fastening down the 2 x 6 deck boards. Again, butt the boards tightly together and let them run long. Then, snap a chalkline and trim the boards flush with the joists
|Next, enclose the open space under the railing with 2 x 2 precut balusters (75 cents each)–these have one end beveled to 45°. Hold each baluster perfectly plumb, then screw it to the 2 x 6 railing and to the floor joist. Set the balusters 4 in. on center, with the beveled ends facing down
|The final construction step is to build the stairs that lead from the sun deck down to the ground. To simplify this chore, we used five precut stair stringers ($7 each). Set the bottom ends of the stringers on concrete patio blocks. This will prevent them from sinking into the dirt and wicking up moisture. Screw the upper ends of the stringers to the floor joist. Create the stair treads by screwing 2 x 12s to the stringers.

In backyards all across America, the summer landscape is once again blooming with above-ground swimming pools. According to the National Spa and Pool Institute, there are about 3.5 million of these opaline oases scattered from coast to coast, and 190,000 new ones are sold annually.
It's easy to see why above-ground pools are so popular: They're affordable, quick and easy to install and require minimal maintenance. However, to get the most enjoyment out of your above-ground pool you need a wood deck that surrounds it. Not only will you never again have to climb a pool ladder, but a deck will also create a fun-in-the-sun gathering place for family and friends. It gives you a place to swim, sunbathe, dine at poolside or just visit.
The trouble is that most pool decks are too difficult or complicated for the weekend carpenter to build. Plus, there are very few attractive pool-deck plans available, and most of those require you to dig and pour dozens of concrete footings.
Fortunately, we discovered a better, simpler approach for building a handsome pool deck. Ours, shown here, may look complicated, but we employed a few timesaving techniques that greatly simplified the construction process and, in turn, dramatically reduced the amount of work required to complete this project. And best of all, we didn't have to dig a single hole.
Deck Design
Our deck is built around a 21-ft.-dia. pool. It's constructed entirely of pressure-treated lumber and features a 360° wraparound pool deck that's connected to a spacious 10 x 18-ft. sun deck. The 3-1/2-ft.-wide circular pool deck provides easy access to the water, while the sun deck is large enough to accommodate a table and chairs and a few chaise lounges.
As mentioned earlier, we employed a timesaving deck-building method that didn't require us to dig postholes or pour concrete footings. It's called a floating-foundation system. The entire deck is supported by concrete pier blocks that simply sit on the ground.
Floating foundations are generally allowed by building codes nationwide, including regions that experience frost heave. However, codes do differ from town to town, so be sure to check with your local building department before starting construction on your pool deck.
For this project, we used precast piers ($5 each), which measure 8 in. high x 11 in. square and weigh about 45 pounds. Molded into the top of each are 1-1/2-in.-wide slots and a 3-1/2-in.-square recessed socket. The slots accept 2 x joists, while the socket is used to support a vertical 4 x 4 post.
To give you some idea of how much time and trouble we saved using the , consider this: It took us less than a day to set all 36 piers and 4 x 4 posts for the perimeter pool deck. If we had used the traditional posthole method, it would've taken at least two days just to dig the three dozen holes and pour the concrete footings.
The plans for building this deck are available free of charge from , the company that sells piers. We ordered the Splash Deluxe plan, which came with a detailed materials list, cost estimator and instructions.
We spent about $2400 for materials to build our deck, which included the pressure-treated lumber, pier blocks, wood sealant, joist hangers and screws.

2006 Toyota Highlander Turbo-Hybrid Sport by Borg-Warner
A touch of Green with a powerful kick

Meet the world's first turbo-hybrid. Yup, that's what I said -- turbo-hybrid. Borg-Warner Turbo & Emissions Systems takes Toyota's popular first-gen hybrid SUV to the next level of performance only to prove that hybrids do have a place amongst the tuners.
As more and more hybrids make their debuts at auto shows, the aftermarket and performance groups are starting to feel that times are changing in the auto industry. There will all ways be a need for aftermarket parts for those who love to tune and customize their vehicles, but being green and bigger mpg gains are being pushed by politicians and by the needs of consumers. This provided Borg-Warner and Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A. with the biggest stepping stone to dethrone any ideas that performance and hybrids can't be mixed.
The 2005 Highlander Hybrid was the first seven-passenger hybrid SUV in the automotive industry. It quickly won the hearts of consumers and became the best-selling hybrid SUV with sales just under its sedan sister, the Prius. This also made Toyota the first manufacturer to offer a hybrid powertrain in passenger car and SUV markets.
Borg-Warner took the stock 3.3-liter V-6 gas-electric engine with 268 peak combined horsepower and custom-fitted an AirWerks K24.2 hybrid turbocharger that featured a Forged-billet compressor wheel, a Ni-Resist turbine housing with an Inconel 713 turbine wheel, and a fabricated air-to-air intercooler with a fully functional hood scoop built and installed by Bill Smulo at G2 Graphic Services. An open-boxed cold-intake and Turbonetics Raptor Blow-off Valve amplify the turbo spooling at open throttle, making it sound as if it were a diesel truck. As a result, the hybrid turbocharger boosts nearly 25-percent more power and nets this hybrid's musclecar-like performance to 320 horsepower. Zero to 60 jumps from 7.3 to 6.9 seconds and pushes this lightweight slugger into the low 15s on the quarter mile.
The power of this hybrid is advertised all over the exterior of this SUV with a custom two-tone black and blue paint scheme that's broken up by thin line of marbleized paint. "TURBO-HYBRID" is written down the side of the doors and the "Hybrid Synergy system" emblems have been removed and replaced with painted replicas that create a clean and smooth rear hatch. Front and rear spoilers, side rocker panels, and a custom billet grill designed by Lund International, Inc. dress the Highlander up. To finish off the Highlanders Sporty look, a set of unique 18-inch KMC Alloy wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot HX MXM4 P235/55R18 tires have been added. Without actually looking inside the interior, one might miss the panoramic and slider sunroofs that were also added to the roof of the SUV.
The interior isn't as bright as the exterior, but it's still packed with tons of entertainment goodness. The seats and door panels are wrapped in velvety soft gray leather and gray marble-looking dash trim is sprinkled throughout the cabin. I counted eight cupholders located around the second-row seating and four for the third row, which also sport the marble trim. The dash features end-to-end chrome that's nice to look at, but could be bothersome on sunny days. JBL set up the sound system that features nine speakers with a 560-watt amp. Two color LCD cameras have been added to the rear hatch. One is set to display from the factory navigation as a rearview backup camera and the second is placed on the interior of the rear hatch as a way to watch behind you as you load up your vehicle at the grocery store --almost like the concaved mirrors at an ATM, so you can watch your back. Second- and third-row passengers can be entertained by four nine-inch LCD headrest screens with the option to play two different movies at the same time. And if that isn't enough to keep you happy on the road, the highlander has XM Radio and an iPod interface for all your music listening needs.
Performance-mod hybrids? My ideas about hybrids could be changing. I live on the philosophy that I can't drive a stock vehicle. People that know me know I'm a tuner and I'm always on the move for my next project. In the past I would never give a hybrid the time of day -- perhaps due to my lack of knowledge of tuning a hybrid. But after spending some time behind the wheel of Highlander Turbo-Hybrid, I am seeing performance and hybrids in a new light.
My daily commute to the office ranges from 95 to 105 miles depending on the freeways I choose to travel. Half the time it's free sailing with speeds up around 70-75 mph, and the second half of my journey tends to live up to L.A. traffic's reputation as a parking lot. The Hybrid Synergy system works no different than the stock version -- it just has some extra kick from the turbo when you need it to really move. I averaged 28-31 mpg daily, which falls in the EPA range 33 mpg in city driving and 28 mpg on the highway on the stock 3.3-liter V-6.
Based on my experience behind the wheel, I felt the turbo suffered from a long wait of turbo-lag. When full throttle is engaged, the turbo spools loudly and it sounds like a powerful diesel truck (it gave me goose bumps). It moves once the turbo lag dissipates and the boost kicks in. The Highlander handled well as a hybrid and as a performance vehicle. I recently spent some time behind the newly redesigned 2008 Highlander on our 2008 SUOTY testing. I wasn't hugely impressed with the comfortable new look of the interior or the performance handling. I prefer the 2005-2006 styling over the new generation of Highlanders just because of this one turbo hybrid. But if Toyota wants to build me a 2008 Highlander turbo-hybrid, I'd be more than willing to give that a run on my long commutes to work. Who knows, I might like it.
With any aftermarket tinkering, there will always be hiccups on paving a new path of performance. I'm glad to see a major manufacturer like Toyota opening the doors of performance opportunity as natural resources, government, and the need to save the world one carb at a time as the auto industry is changing.
And who said you can't have it green and have performance, too?
(Toyota just proved them wrong).

Outbound: Venezuela too rowdy for Christina Cox
When Christina Cox embarked on a year-long study abroad trip to Venezuela, she expected to improve her Spanish and enjoy the country's relaxed Caribbean culture. What she didn't anticipate were street protests and tear gas.
Cox, a junior at Charlottesville High School, left for Venezuela in September as part of an exchange program sponsored by the American Field Service, best known as AFS. Recent political demonstrations protesting the actions of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez have grown increasingly violent, halting oil shipments and bringing the country to a standstill.
"We were concerned about letting her go and thought about changing our minds," says her father, Kevin Cox, "but it meant a lot to her."
Young Cox says she never felt endangered during her stay in Venezuela. Living on the island of Margarita with the family of two professors, Cox says she was far from the political violence. In the capital city of Caracas, however, thing were considerably dicier, with violent protests and frequent shootings, including the recent death of a 17-year-old girl.
When Cox was given one day's notice of her departure, she was devastated. AFS sent her home in mid-December, shortly before the State Department issued a travel warning.
"I didn't want to leave," she says, adding that "Most of the really dangerous people had already gone to Caracas."
Cox, who says that her experience has changed the way she views the news media, is concerned about the way the oil crisis has been portrayed in America.
"A lot of Americans only care about oil prices," she says. "They don't realize that schools, doctor's offices, and grocery stores have been shut down in Venezuela and the influence this is having on the lives of everyday people. It's causing Venezuelans to kill each other."
Cox hopes that Chavez will be thrown out of office. The president, a leftist whose supporters see him as a champion of the country's poor, has been criticized for leading the nation into economic ruin by failing to deliver promised reforms.
She may have left Venezuela at the right time. Still in contact with her former host family through phone and email, she recently learned that the school she attended was tear-gassed. While she won't be able to return to her host family this year, she says she plans to go back "as soon as it's safe again."
In the meantime, AFS has given Cox the option of completing her year abroad in Ecuador. Cox, who hopes one day to study archaeology or international relations, says she is unsure if she will return to South America, citing the continent's overall volatile situation.
Father Kevin Cox isn't eager to ship his eldest child off again. "One close call," he says, "may be enough."

I am researching a McLean family who came to Kintyre from Ireland about 1838.
Duncan (born 1785) was a carter and his wife Elizabeth (Betsy) McLachlan born 1801.
Dates are approximate.
In the 1841 census they lived at Fleming's land (see notes elsewhere on this forum). Their children were
Andrew born 1823
Catharine 1829
Hugh 1833
Elizabeth 1835 all in Ireland
Martha born 1838
Christian born 1840 both Argyllshire
Son Charles '20' was an agricultural labourer at Darloclan, home of Archibald Stewart, farmer
In later life, Charles and Hugh became fishermen. I have some information on Charles and his descendants, but very little on other family members.
It would be very useful to know which part of Ireland they came from.
Can anyone add anything?
