A professional-grade wooden 10-hole harmonica.
Using the most seasoned tonewoods and unique construction technique, the MR-550 Pure Harp is the result of Suzuki's research and development of unique professional grade harmonicas.
Rosewood has been sought after by top musicians from all over the globe, from classical guitar players to top violinists. This wood allows unique tonal qualities and when used in harmonica construction, gives a warmer tone. Using Rosewood can produce a high velocity of sound and a broad range of mid and low overtones. These 'lows' help to create a complex bottom end which imparts a richness to the overall tone of the harmonica.
The redesigned reeds, which are the heart of this Suzuki harmonica, have been produced with the advanced player in mind. However, this reed design makes it easier to play the harp chromatically, right out of the box! The Suzuki Reed plates allow ease of play, especially with overblow and overdraw techniques.
The Suzuki MR-550 is an all-hardwood harmonica; even the covers are rosewood! It gives the harp a rich, dark and bluesy tone that will have your audience begging for more. The richness of this harmonica is unmatched and if you are looking for a traditional sound, here it is!
Fly your pro harpist colors and order the Suzuki Pure Harp today.

Little Chalk Dog
Testimonial I ordered two polos for my twins, who wanted to look just like mummy, with my company name on the back of their shirts.
I sent my order through, and immediately got a response to say my order was in, followed quickly by one that let me know when I should receive the shirts, and clarification on my wording
(I had misspelled my own company name, doh!).
I gor another email to say they were dispatched, and they came in the door exactly when expected. My girls were absolutely thrilled with their shirts, and it's been hard to get them out of them since. Best of all, the more they wear them, the more advertising I get :)
Most importantly, as someone who shops online a lot, I was delighted with the personal response, and updates on my order. It was a personal touch that made all the difference. The quality of the shirts is very very good, and washes well. A big thank-you to Sarah at Litlle Chalk Horse for a fantastic service. My son now wants to know do you have the polos in boy sizes?? I really love my Flash and Poppy purple zoodie and wear it all the time! |

German Shepherd Dog > Any comments on this pedigree? (32 replies)
Any comments on this pedigree? by troopscott on 11 July 2012 - 12:27 |
Considering a pup from this mating http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/para.utkoma?fadir=714639&modir=708783 Thanks for your thoughts |
by beetree on 11 July 2012 - 12:32 |
There are some holes in the pedigree. |
by Riven on 11 July 2012 - 13:24 |
Nothing much to write home about |
by Hedi on 11 July 2012 - 14:26 |
I would like to know how the dam is. Temprament wise and such. For me that side of the pedigree is something I would personally be more curious about at quick glance. Also, what are you wanting the dog to do (pet, worker, show dog)? I am a working dog person, so for me that dam would have to be something special for me to consider this particular litter. Anyone else have an opinion? |
by BlackthornGSD on 11 July 2012 - 14:44 |
It would depend on what the buyer is looking for. The mom looks like a beautiful dog. She is 1/2 conformation lines, and the pups would be 3/4 working lines and 1/4 show lines. This breeding could make a very handsome yet very versatile companion/pet and a solid working dog. |
by troopscott on 11 July 2012 - 15:09 |
What I am looking for is a dog that can be a working dog and a pet. This is my first GSD So honestly don't know what to look for in the pedigree. I saw the dad was a world team qualifier and v rated his dad was also schh3 as was pretty much everything going back to the 4 th generation. I know the mom has some videos on you tube she has not been titled not sure if she will be but I have watched the videos of her bite work including in a pond and holding on when dunked which looked good. I know her dad was world champion I believe in 2008 or 2009. The power of google makes me just dumb enough about this stuff to be an idiot :). I appreciate all the feedback so far and look forward to more. The dog I get will live in the hose with my wife my daughter (10) and I. We have a 1/3 acre fenced back yard as well but will def be a petas well What are considered holes? Would this be an ok entry dog into the sport? |

What I am looking for is a pet and a working dog. Sorry it posted twice |
by beetree on 11 July 2012 - 15:40 |
This is a hole: Best wishes for finding a great companion, if you decide to get a pup! |
by Gustav on 11 July 2012 - 19:40 |
I agree with Blackthorn, this may not be a pedigree that fits into the lines box, but it has good genetic diversity, probably great health, and a throwback to the versatile all around dog as opposed to the specialist dogs of today. I see nothing wrong with this breeding for what the OP has intentions for. |
by troopscott on 11 July 2012 - 20:19 |
This may be a stupid question but how do I tell that the mother is show line? When I look at the pedigree I see SCHH3 and 2's etc all the way back. Is that not the working titles vs show titles? |
by dAWgESOME on 11 July 2012 - 20:30 |
I agree with above comments from Blackthorn & Gustav. |
by Gustav on 11 July 2012 - 21:47 |
Thx Dawgesome, I think I am giving a fair and impartial assessment to all lines in my reply. Prolly to chagrin of some...loll Troopscott, I think you have a chance of getting a wonderful dog out of this breeding. |
by hexe on 12 July 2012 - 05:24 |
I agree with those who have said this breeding has good potential for producing a nicely balanced, attractive dog that will be well suited to family life as well as dog sport on an entry level (and quite possibly well beyond--the dog's limitations might be only that of the handler). The dam certainly is easy on the eyes, and if her temperament checks out, and she's got the necessary health clearances, the lack of a title is of lesser concern, especially if she's being worked in other venues. She should AT LEAST have hips & elbows certified as normal by OFA or a similar organization (and not just prelims, either--I mean actually certified by one of the evaluating organizations). The 'hole' in the pedigree is actually on the sire's side, in the 5th generation, which wouldn't concern me overmuch (that far back, that single bitch won't have much influence, even if she's a bat-eared wooly marmoset)...though I was able to fill in the sire's side for Quitte via WIN-Sis, so the hole is that much smaller. If someone felt *really* driven to find out who Quitte Sutu-Hali's dam was, contact info for the breeder, Gerhard Kranich, can be found here: http://www.kranich-schaeferhunde.de/Unkas.html and here: http://www.dvag.de/gerhard.kranich/datenschutz/ Of course, I wouldn't expect to pay the same amount for a pup from a breeding such as this as I would for one out of a breeding where both parents are titled and breed surveyed--but if the price is right, and you like the pups, you could do far, far worse than this pairing. Edited to add: Careful, Gustav...you could get drummed outta the 'REAL hard, serious workin' dawg' fraternity, saying anything nice about a working/showline cross! |
by Gustav on 12 July 2012 - 10:47 |
Lol, I just want to be in the fraternity of knowledgable dog people of any lines....smile...I like all types of dogs and breeders that emphasize keeping a German Shepherd a working dog. Don't care the color, the line, or the breed.....but can't stand non working German Shepherds or breeders of that type, because the beauty of the dog is in its utility! |
by troopscott on 13 July 2012 - 02:26 |
If I decide on one of these puppies Hexe what would a good price be? I visited the breeder to see the mother and she was great as far as temperment goes. Took my daughter and they played and played while my untrained eye checked out the puppies. I will be doing what I can to learn as much as possible including joining a local schutzhund club to make sure I am not limiting what the puppy learns. |
by yellowrose of Texas on 13 July 2012 - 02:45 |
Might I make a suggestion? Find a Schutzhund club FIRST.. GO visit...talk to head trainer, and some people with knowledge..ask questions...ask about breeders they KNOW> HEALTH checks next after you find a breeder...YOU Have to ask the breeder for paperwork ahead of time before you see pups... ANY pup will take your heart. Get some knowledge first then go find a breeder to look at litters. YR Knowledge first may prevent a heart ache..and loss of lots of time and sleep with a new pup. |

Knowledge first may prevent a heart ache..and loss of lots of time and sleep with a new pup. YR |
by hexe on 13 July 2012 - 05:03 |
YR, what in particular are you finding lacking in the dam of this litter, aside from a title & breed survey? She's SV-registered, with 'a1' stamped hips and a ZW of 73, though admittedly I don't see an elbow cert for her; she's a Bandit granddaughter on her sire's side (making this litter a linebreeding on Bandit), and the showlines on her dam's side are definitely not shabby (Enzo Buchhorn's work was well-respected). As working/showline blends go, this one looks pretty darn nice to me... I'm not so sure about talking to the TD of a local SchH club before choosing a dog, either--maybe it's just me, but an awful lot of TD's put down whatever dog a new member hopeful walks onto the field with unless said TD either bred the dog or brokered it...so the likelyhood of the OP getting an unbiased opinion from that venue might be a longshot at best. Of course, maybe the clubs in the OP's area have TD's that aren't interested primarily in marketing their own dogs. Another question to consider is this: Has the owner of the stud dog been willing to hang his or her dog's name on litters from just any bitch whose owner has the stud fee, or does the stud owner only allow the dog to breed females they consider to be good specimens of the breed? If it's the latter, that would say a great deal about the dam of the litter.... It's all well and good to talk about getting a dog for it's sport potential, but the bottom line is that first and foremost, it sounds like this pup's Number One Job is going to be to be a good and loving family member. If the OP has met the dam of the litter and she was social, approachable and appropriate with his children, and he likes both her and the pups, that's just as important as everything else. troopscott, as far as prices go, if there's worthwhile warranty** on hips and health, you can buy a puppy out of titled, breed-surveyed parents here in the US for $1200-1500.00 and up, so I would expect the price to be below that, but higher than the prices usually seen for the average 'hobby breeder' litters advertised in the local newspaper (generally $400-500.00, for example). **I consider a worthwhile warranty to be one that will cover the dog's hips and health AT LEAST until the dog is 24-26 months old, won't require you to return the dog in order to receive the benefit of the warranty, and won't be limited to just being given a discount on another puppy or given a replacement puppy--it needs to have some other option for a buyer who may not want another dog. Personally, I have no interest in warranties, as long as I've been able to confirm that the parents have been cleared for the primary health concerns, but I also won't pay $2000.00 or more for a PUPPY, either, since there's no way to tell how it will develop despite everyone's best efforts and intentions. |
by workingdogz on 13 July 2012 - 08:48 |
My 2 cents worth? I don't think you could go too wrong with this breeding. Hutch is a known producer from proven lines, Blumenkamp is an older highline kennel that has produced some nice show lines that could do the work. It's certainly not a 'popular' breeding, but there have been some very nice working/show crosses over the years. If the price is right, sire/dam have at the least minimum health checks done, I think you could likely do way worse somewhere else Hell, there are litters advertised right on this board with untitled sire/dams that have had ZERO testing done. While I understand why YR urges you to go to a club first, I tend to agree with Hexe, you would likely be urged to buy from within the club itself rather than a 'dreaded show/work cross' litter. If you buy a pup, and take it to a club, LIE and tell them you don't know the breeding of the pup--that will force them to work what they see in front of them As far as price? depends on your market area, and what age of the pup etc etc. But, I would think a fair price for a pup from a breeding like this would be between $600-$900 if the min. health tests have been done. Obviously on the sire, the HD/ED is done, I'd want to see the mothers paperwork too. |
by Gustav on 13 July 2012 - 12:54 |
You would be surprised how differently people see what pups do and look like when they dont know the linage. Many sport clubs are very very biased against SL dogs and would have negative energy because the dog has SL blood in him. Phooey.....the pup seems to have nice blend of genetics, more important is making sure you get a puppy to shows an aptitude for confidence and drive in the litter....the rest will take care of itself. |

CHARDON, Ohio (CNS) --- The Catholic community "shares the grief of the families and friends of the five victims" of a school shooting Feb. 27 in Chardon, said Bishop Richard G. Lennon of Cleveland. "We continue to struggle in disbelief with the horrifying nature of the incident and we look to God to bring us peace and comfort," he said in a statement. Five students were shot when a teenager opened fire in the cafeteria at Chardon High School in the Cleveland suburbs. Student Daniel Parmertor, 16, died instantly. A second student, Russell King Jr., 17, was declared brain dead at 1 a.m. Feb. 28, but an Associated Press story said it was unclear if the teen remained on life support. Later that morning, MetroHealth Medical Center reported that a third student, Demetrius Hewlin, 16, who was in critical condition, had died. The two remaining students wounded by the gunman were being treated at Hillcrest Hospital, but their names were not released. "We ask for everyone's prayers in order to bring healing to the families of the victims, to the Chardon community, and to the family of the young man who is reported to be responsible for this terrible tragedy," said Bishop Lennon. Police said a 17-year-old male suspected of being the shooter was chased from the school and a short time later arrested about a half a mile away. Authorities would not release his name because he is a juvenile. According to news reports, he was to appear in court the afternoon of Feb. 28, but there was no word on the charges he faced. The family of the suspect identified him as T.J. Lane in a statement released through a lawyer on a Cleveland television station later that evening. The Lane family said that they were devastated by news of the shooting and extended "heartfelt and sincere condolences" to the victims and their families. The lawyer described the youth as "extremely remorseful."
Ruling ordering removal of school's prayer banner won't be appealed
CRANSTON, R.I. (CNS) --- A local school committee voted it won't appeal a federal court ruling that called for the permanent removal of a Cranston public high school's prayer banner in place for almost 50 years. After hearing three hours of passionate testimony Feb. 16, the Cranston School Committee voted 5-2 to not appeal because most members believed that the cost of additional legal expenses would hurt the school department budget. The banner became the center of debate last April when the American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit contending that it was a religious symbol displayed in a public school that violated the First Amendment rights of Jessica Ahlquist, a self-avowed atheist, who is now a junior at Cranston High School West. More than 700 people attended the committee meeting, many of them wearing signs bearing the directive "Appeal," while others carried placards supporting their position. Before the meeting began, many supporters of the prayer banner sang "God Bless America," while during the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance, a large number in the audience shouted "Under God." Joseph V. Cavanagh, a First Amendment attorney and member of the legal team which represented the city of Cranston in the ACLU suit, told those gathered that he'd received hundreds of calls about the case, mostly in support of keeping the banner on the wall of the auditorium where it has hung since 1963 when it was presented as a gift from that year's graduating class. "This is not about prayer in public schools," Cavanagh emphasized, adding that a 1963 Supreme Court decision stipulates that prayers cannot be recited in public schools. Cavanagh said that while he believes that the Cranston banner is a "display," U.S. District Judge Ronald Lagueux, who ordered the banner's removal, interpreted the issue differently, calling it a "prayer" because it begins with the words "Our heavenly Father" and ends with "Amen."
Pope to join Catholic families for international celebration in Milan
VATICAN CITY (CNS) --- The Archdiocese of Milan, which will host the World Meeting of Families 2012, announced Pope Benedict XVI would spend three days in the northern Italian city in June, celebrating the event's closing Mass, but also attending a concert at the world famous La Scala theater. The world meeting, to be held May 30-June 3, includes family activities as well as workshops and speeches for theologians and people involved in the pastoral care of families. The theme of the meeting, co-sponsored by the Pontifical Council for the Family, is: "The Family: Work and Celebration." Pope Benedict will arrive in Milan the afternoon of June 1 and address the city's residents in the main square. Afterward, he will go to La Scala for a concert; organizers did not say what the program would be. The pope will pray with priests and religious June 2, meet with city government officials and then preside over the evening of testimony and celebration that traditionally is part of the World Meeting of Families. He will celebrate the closing Mass June 3, then meet with the event's organizers and volunteers before returning to the Vatican.
Vatican says relations with Vietnam continue to improve
VATICAN CITY (CNS) --- The government of Vietnam has agreed to allow the pope's special envoy to have greater freedom to visit Catholics in the communist country, the Vatican spokesman said. Jesuit Father Federico Lombardi, the spokesman, said Vatican-Vietnamese relations continue to take "gradual steps forward," including an agreement reached in late February "to facilitate the work" of Archbishop Leopoldo Girelli, the pope's non-resident envoy to the Vietnam, by making it easier for him to visit Catholic leaders and communities. The archbishop, who was appointed in January 2011, took part in meetings Feb. 27-28 of a joint Vatican-Vietnamese working group, established to work toward fully normalizing relations. For years, top Vatican diplomats made annual trips to Vietnam to work out details of the church's life and freedom to function in the country. The trips included a discussion of every potential bishop's appointment with government officials. The Vatican always insisted that needing government permission to name a bishop was not the usual Vatican procedure, but that it could be tolerated temporarily as Vatican-Vietnamese relations improved. The Vatican delegation visiting Hanoi Feb. 27-28 was led by Msgr. Ettore Balestrero, the Vatican undersecretary for relations with states.
Online petition asks pope to help free Maryland man jailed in Cuba
WASHINGTON (CNS) --- A U.S. Jewish group is gathering signatures in an online petition asking Pope Benedict XVI to intercede with Cuban officials during his March 26-28 visit there to free a Maryland Jewish man jailed since December 2009. Alan Gross, 62, was convicted last year of crimes against the state and sentenced to 15 years in prison. He had been working as a contractor for the U.S. Agency for International Development, serving on a democracy-building project financed by the agency. The petition, sponsored by the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington, is addressed to Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, the apostolic nuncio to the United States, requesting that he raise "a matter of utmost importance with His Holiness." The petition said Gross was jailed for "his efforts to help the Cuban Jewish community improve its access to the Internet. Prior to his arrest, Alan's life was dedicated to improving the lives of others, particularly those less fortunate. He worked in more than 50 countries --- including Iraq, Afghanistan, Africa and Haiti --- and never had any legal trouble in any of the countries he worked in or visited, until now." It added, "We most humbly request that whatever efforts necessary be made so that Pope Benedict XVI can obtain Alan's release from prison on humanitarian grounds during his upcoming visit to Cuba." The Jewish Community Relations Council, in a Feb. 23 statement, said: "Alan and his supporters have fervently rejected all accusations that he did, or intended to, do anything to harm the Cuban government."
Profit cannot be primary motive in treating infertility, pope says
VATICAN CITY (CNS) --- An almost exclusive reliance on technology and a focus on financial profit seem to dominate the field of medical responses to infertility, Pope Benedict XVI said. However, what couples need and deserve, he said, is "a correct diagnostic evaluation and a therapy that corrects the causes of infertility." Pope Benedict spoke Feb. 25 to members of the Pontifical Academy for Life, which had just held a daylong workshop at the Vatican on diagnosing and treating infertility. The pope said he wanted "to encourage the intellectual honesty of your work, an expression of a science that maintains a correct spirit of seeking the truth to serve the authentic human good and that avoids the risk of being merely functional." At the conference, physicians and researchers said modern medicine's almost automatic recommendation that couples having trouble conceiving try in vitro fertilization is a response that does not seek the cause of infertility, but addresses only the symptom and does so in a way that violates church teaching. With in vitro fertilization, a woman's eggs are removed, united with sperm in a laboratory, and then implanted in the womb of the mother or a surrogate. The procedure is costly, and the Catholic Church teaches IVF is immoral because fertilization does not take place through the sexual union of a husband and wife. The church also condemns the common IVF practice of destroying or freezing fertilized embryos that are not implanted. "In effect, scientism and the logic of profit today seem to dominate the field of infertility and human procreation, reaching a point where it also limits many other areas of research," Pope Benedict said.
Preparing for synod, bishops look at role of family in evangelization
VATICAN CITY (CNS) --- Making final preparations for the world Synod of Bishops on new evangelization, a committee of cardinals and bishops discussed how difficult it is today to transmit the faith to others. "There was talk about the 'current fruitlessness of evangelization,' including because of the presence of certain influences from modern culture that make the transmission of the faith particularly difficult," said a Vatican press release issued Feb. 27. The ordinary council of the general secretariat of the Synod of Bishops met at the Vatican Feb. 16 to discuss a draft of the working document for the synod, which will be held at the Vatican Oct. 7-28. The theme of the gathering will be: "The New Evangelization for the Transmission of the Christian Faith." In a discussion about challenges to faith and to handing on the faith, the council members focused particularly on the role of the family, the statement said. Within the family, it said, young people "learn both the content and the practice of the Christian faith. The irreplaceable work of the family is continued in the catechesis offered by church institutions and, especially, through the liturgy with the sacraments and the homily."
Maryland leaders pledge to put same-sex marriage issue on fall ballot
BALTIMORE (CNS) --- The Maryland Catholic Conference's executive director, vowing to work with others to bring the measure to a referendum, said the people of the state "will be outraged" at how quickly the bill to legalize same-sex marriage made it through the Legislature to final passage. The state Senate approved it 25-22 the evening of Feb. 23 after deliberating just 48 hours. The House of Delegates had already approved the bill Feb. 17, and Gov. Martin J. O'Malley, the bill's sponsor, has pledged to sign it quickly into law. "I expect that the people of Maryland will be outraged at the manner in which this legislation has been rammed through the Legislature, and they will be all the more inspired to do everything necessary to ensure the opportunity to vote in support of traditional marriage," said Mary Ellen Russell of the Catholic conference. The conference is the public policy arm of the bishops serving Maryland Catholics from the Washington and Baltimore archdioceses and the Diocese of Wilmington, Del. Cardinal Edwin F. O'Brien, apostolic administrator of the Baltimore Archdiocese, said that "by daring to redefine this sacred union between one man and one woman," Maryland's politicians "unconscionably have chosen political expediency over the good of society --- the fundamental charge of their office." Calling it "radical legislation, he said the lawmakers' action "poses a grave threat to the future stability of the nuclear family and the society it anchors." The Archdiocese of Washington said the measure was "regrettably" passed through "expedited hearings" and despite the fact that "Catholics and individuals across Maryland encouraged the lawmakers to protect the long-standing and proper definition of marriage as a union of one man and one woman."
Former Anglicans celebrate Mass in St. Peter's, give thanks to pope
VATICAN CITY (CNS) --- For perhaps the first time ever, Anglican hymns, chants and prayers reverberated off the marble walls of St. Peter's Basilica as some members of the world's first ordinariate for former Anglicans celebrated their coming into the Catholic Church. "Wonderful is not a strong enough word to express how we feel to be here," where the apostle Peter gave his life "and where his successors guarded the faith for generations," said Father Len Black in his homily. Mass at the basilica and the pilgrimage to Rome generated "a feeling of coming home," said the Catholic priest who served as an Episcopalian pastor in the Scottish Highlands for 31 years. The group of about 94 pilgrims, including a dozen priests, was led by Msgr. Keith Newton, head of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, which was established in January 2011 for former Anglicans in England and Wales. After celebrating morning Mass Feb. 24 in a side chapel, the group moved to the center of the basilica and stood in front of the "Confessio" --- a lower chapel honoring St. Peter's confession of faith that led to his martyrdom --- and recited the General Thanksgiving, a traditional Anglican prayer. "That was very moving, thanking God for all we received this year and for the pilgrimage," he told Catholic News Service.
Bishop says he didn't 'fire' priest but had to correct bad Mass wording
BELLEVILLE, Ill. (CNS) --- Bishop Edward K. Braxton of Belleville said he did not "fire" a priest from his pastorate for using his own wording in some parts of the Mass but was obligated to correct the situation as shepherd of the diocese. The bishop accepted the resignation of Father William Rowe, pastor of St. Mary Parish in Mount Carmel for the past 17 years, after several meetings with the 72-year-old priest over the last five years failed to resolve the bishop's concerns about how Father Rowe celebrated the Mass, especially after the implementation of the new Roman Missal in late November. In a letter dated Feb. 14 and written while Bishop Braxton was in Rome for his periodic "ad limina" visit to report on the status of the diocese, the bishop said he had "only asked (Father Rowe) to do what the church asks me and every priest to do." He wrote: "I regret very much that Father Rowe could not find in his heart the docility needed to put the clear mandate of the church above his personal likes and dislikes with regard to his vocation as an ordained minister of the church's public worship in communion with the whole church." Bishop Braxton said he had consulted with Cardinal Antonio Canizares Llovera, prefect of the Vatican Congregation for Divine Worship and the Sacraments, about the matter, and neither the cardinal nor members of his staff were aware "of another instance in the entire English-speaking, Catholic world in which a priest has resigned from his pastorate rather than accepting the new translation of the Roman Missal."

Stephenson County, Illinois Shooting Lawsuit Update
On Easter Sunday, April 4, 2010, William Scott entered the home of his ex-wife, Annette Scott, and shot both Annette and her boyfriend, Rollin Dunham, before returning to his home and shooting himself in the head. Both Annette and William died from their injuries, but Rollin survived a gunshot to the abdomen and another to the lower leg.
At the time of the shooting, Annette had an Order of Protection on file with the Stephenson County, Illinois Sheriff's Department. Annette had previously filed multiple Orders of Protection against William based on claims of domestic abuse, threats and stalking behaviors. Additionally, Annette called the Sheriff's Department and filed numerous complaints relating to violations of these Orders of Protection. In fact, in the two weeks preceding the tragic events of April 4, 2010, Annette Scott had reported at least four violations of her recently-filed Order of Protection.
Orders of Protection were created as a provision in the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986. The stated purpose of the Act is to "recognize domestic violence as a serious crime against the individual and society which . . . promotes a pattern of escalating violence which frequently culminates in intra-family homicide. . . ." 750 ILCS 60/102(1). Under Illinois law, a violation of an Order of Protection is considered a misdemeanor; however a repeat violation of an Order of Protection is considered a felony. 720 ILCS 5/12-30.
On November 9, 2010, Rollin Dunham and the Estate of Annette Scott filed a lawsuit against the Stephenson County Sheriff's Office. The Complaint contains allegations that the Sheriff's Office failed to protect Annette and Rollin by failing to investigate the reported violations of the Orders of Protection, by failing to divest William of his firearms despite knowledge that he possessed several, and failing to arrest William despite his commission of multiple felonies.
"Despite William's well-known reputation for violence and his repeated violations of the law, the Sheriff and his deputies failed to arrest him. If they had taken the proper action and arrested William, this tragedy would not have happened," said Devon C. Bruce of Power Rogers & Smith, P.C., who is representing the Plaintiffs.
The case is currently pending before the Honorable Judge Jeffrey of the Stephenson County Circuit Court. The parties are currently in the discovery phase of litigation attempting to determine the extent of the Sheriff Department's knowledge regarding William Scott as well as their policies and procedures for handling violations of Orders of Protection.

On Facebook, the most common unacceptable behavior involves some abuse of our communication tools. This can be as innocent as annoying others with too many messages or friend requests or as serious as deliberately trying to spam others for commercial gain.
We take these deliberate spam attacks seriously and devote a tremendous amount of our engineering time and talent to build systems that detect suspicious activity and automatically warn people about inappropriate behavior or links. Because of our efforts, only a very small percentage of people who use Facebook has ever experienced spam or a security issue.
Every once in a while, though, people misunderstand one of these systems. They incorrectly believe that Facebook is restricting speech because we've blocked them from posting a specific link or from sending a message to someone who is not a friend.

A short film about shadowplay.
Chilean filmmaker Raúl, or Raoul, Ruiz (1941-2011) was one of the most exciting and innovative filmmakers to emerge from 1960s World Cinema, providing more intellectual fun and artistic experimentation, shot for shot, than any filmmaker since Jean-Luc Godard. A guerrilla who uncompromisingly assaulted the preconceptions of film art, this frightfully prolific figure – he made over 100 films in 40 years – did not adhere to any one style of filmmaking. He worked in 35mm, 16mm and video, for theatrical release and for European TV, and on documentary and fiction features and shorts. His career began in avant-garde theatre where, between 1956 and 1962, he wrote over 100 plays. Although he never directed any of these productions, he did dabble in TV and filmmaking in the early 1960s. In 1968, with the release of his first completed feature, the Cassavetes-like Tres tristes tigres (1968… read more

'No-Pay' Policy for HAIs Does Not Reduce Infections
A Harvard study raises questions about whether paying for performance—or penalizing hospitals for poor performance—improves quality of care.
The researchers examined whether the federal policy that took effect Oct. 1, 2008 prohibiting reimbursement for acute care services necessitated by hospital-acquired bloodstream or urinary tract infections provoked those infection rates to decline.
It did not, the researchers concluded in an article published Thursday in the New England Journal of Medicine.
"It surprised us a little bit," says Ashish Jha, one of the authors and the Associate Professor of Health Policy and Management. "I had hoped that by taking away the extra payments that hospitals used to get for (taking care of patients with) hospital-acquired infections, we would focus hospitals more on getting rid of these infections."
In fact, a variety of incentive programs to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections and central line blood stream infections had been coming down independently prior to Oct. 1, 2008, the authors acknowledge, perhaps in anticipation of Medicare's penalty provisions, set forth in a section of the 2005 Deficit Reduction Act.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
Howard (10/12/2012 at 9:56 AM)
I'll say it before and I'll say it again, it was a good idea to start out with, but unfortunately you can motivate people by a penalty system on things that can't be helped either way. Chasing zero is a respectable goal in hospital infections, but with the current technology it just isn't realistic.

Cooldown: 60/50/40 seconds
Grabs the target unit, forcing it to move wherever you go(as in, stuck in Bearloth's hand). Lasts 3/4/5 seconds. Changes skill to [Let it fly]. Units are considered Stunned while being held.
*Note: Not a channeling Spell, so stunning Bearloth while he holds someone will not make him let go.

Changes skill to Savagery "upon use/when savagery runs out".
Chucks the unit towards the target location. Anything that unit that gets in the way will deal 30/45/60 physical damage to both the thrown unit and the colliding unit. Any tree that gets in the way will be destroyed and will deal 15/20/25 physical damage to the thrown target. Changes skill to Savagery upon use.
*Note: Mountain Leap will NOT break the hold. Portal Key, and other blinking mechanics like Kraken's Ult, Nymphora's Ult, etc, will make you let go of the victim right before you port.

Everyone seems to be in love with the "grabbing" ultimate for some reason...
Did I miss a memo?
Sorry... But when I looked at picture and concept I spected something more in the skills...
Didn't really liked te concept... Maybe because I don't saw the source of the idea...
The concept is just like pebbles, but the ulti is replaced by Chuck and Chuck is replaced by Valk's Leap. Anyways, I think the concept is bad.

The Destruction of Charleston in the Civil War
Visitors to the South Carolina city can still see signs of the pre-Civil War structures that were devastated by Union bombardment and a blazing fire devastated
- By Ray Gordon and Molly Roberts
- Smithsonian.com, March 23, 2011
(Library of Congress / Molly Roberts)
Home to the Hibernian Society, an Irish benevolent group, Hibernian Hall served as headquarters for the Southern Democrats, a faction that split off from the Democratic Party after the contentious 1860 Democratic National Convention. This schism led to there being two presidential candidates: Stephen Douglas, representing the Northern Democrats, and John Breckenridge, representing the Southern Democrats, a division that ensured the election of the Republican candidate, Abraham Lincoln. The society still uses the space today as a meeting center.

"no one could have predicted that the Civil War would last almost five years" It didn't. It lasted almost exactly four years, April 1861 to April-May 1865. I thought everyone knew this.

The picture of the artillery unit is yet to be identified with complete accuracy. There were numerous Confederate artillery units from S.C. at the beginning of the war that used the word "palmetto" in their names. The site may have been Ft. Pemberton, but it could also have been taken at another of the Confederate fortifications on the Stono River just south of Charleston. What IS known is that the picture was taken by photographer George Smith Cook who identified it simply as "Palmetto Battalion, Stono Inlet." What concerns me more is the complete inaccuracy behind the split image. The modern "park" picture is of Charleston's White Point Gardens at the tip of the city's peninsula, also known as "the battery" today, which was heavily fortified during the war as Fort Ramsay. This is not where the image was taken and totally inappropriate.

You are correct in that I don't read your publication on a regular bases.
If you have some past articles that I should read, please forward them to me or let me know where I can go to download them.
Thank you,

I'm just curious about how the artillery company can be identified as the Palmetto Guards (Co. A). Since the caption says "probably," does that mean the i.d. is simply an educated guess? What is the basis for the conclusion? I've seen the photograph identified as being a different company. Thanks...
Posted by Jo H on September 6,2011 | 10:35 PM
I think you could have done a much better job with the photographs. If you're going to have a split-screen tool to view "before and after" images, you at least need to capture the same angle of whatever your photographing.

I could not access the pictures!!
Posted by lois fontana on July 6,2011 | 10:02 PM
Sir, I was a resident of Charleston from 1967 until 1980. 1. The soldiers were photographed on James Island at Fort Pemberton. As recently as 1981, this was accessible by car and very close to Fort Sumter. This would have made mortar fire much more damaging on the Federal position. That was the point I believe. 2. The Circular Church did survive the Civil War and still stands. 3. The Mills House was rebuilt from the ground up in the late 1960's. I hope this was made clear for your readers.

"This schism led to their being two presidential candidates" -- really?
I would have hoped that the writers and editors of so illustrious a magazine as Smithsonian would know the difference between "there", "their", and "they're."
Posted by K Krewer on May 4,2011 | 06:17 PM
I also agree with many of the responces; the new views should have mirrored the old. This point of view would have had more impact.
Posted by Richard Campbell on April 28,2011 | 11:37 AM
The 1860s view of the first picture shows the ruins of the Circular Church and the Steeple of St. Michaels as well as the battered side of the Mills House Hotel (also viewed in the 4th picture). The direction of the modern view in the first picture is completely wrong as both the Circular Church and the Mills House are standing and visible to this day but cannot be seen in the modern picture!?
As I pointed out earlier, the second image of the artillery group is not correctly identified as to their group designation nor is the location correct. Surprisingly, the battery appeared at the end of the war much as it does today minus the earthworks constructed along the east wall. You can clearly tell they are not in the battery due to the absence of the sea wall and how close the land behind them is. This is no harbor, that is the Stono River and Johns Island in the distance, taken from Fort Pemberton on James Island. I have 1860 era photographs and current photographs that clearly confirm this.
I love Smithsonian Magazine but these first two photos could have used a bit more on site research.
Posted by William D. Lewis on April 15,2011 | 08:05 AM
The second picture of the artillery men has been identified incorrectly.
The picture shows the Charleston Light Artillery Co. 1 Palmetto Battery taken at Fort Pemberton on James Island, SC. In the background is the Stono River and the marsh of Johns Island on the other side. This is not in Charleston Harbor and these men were not standing in what is known today as the battery.

I understand what the magazine was trying to emphasize with these pictures. However, I agree with the others. The pictures from today's time should have been taking from similar angles/locations as the original photographs. As they are now it is hard to get a clear representation of the damage done.
For example, the Circular Church modern picture: Did they move the church? Is the location with all the trees where it originally stood? I just feel like the Smithsonian could have done a better job. It looks like images were just Googled and then placed in the story.

I find it interesting, if not a bit unsettling the effort here to legitamize the South's position regarding slavery (3/5s or no). Regardless of the politics and labels we like to use, the blacks of the south were slaves and their owners had no intention of changing that; they had no problem with poor southern whites going to war to defend their "property."
I believe the war was fought by the North to preserve the union, to keep the our nation from foreign invasion, and to end slavery. Lincoln held back from making slavery the main issue for political reasons, but his Emancipation Proclamation reinvigorated the North's efforts--giving the troops a moral cause to fight for--and probably help to win the war.
Though 'states rigths' seems to be a common rallying cry (as in, the South was legitimate then as the Tea Pary is now), I believe this was secondary to rich and powerful southerners maintaining the status quo; they claimed it was about "state's rights" in order to get a bunch of poor white southerners to fight for their right to keep slaves.
The common white in the south (who fought the war, and a vast majority of whom did not own slaves) at first believed they were defending their homes from foreign invaders, but certainly grew tired of the war and most wanted only to return to their homes and families. The poor response to the south's draft efforts later in the war certainly speaks to that.
In his effor to save the Union and defend the constitution, Lincoln probably had to side-step or ignore the law of the land. Whether this was justified or no, I can't really say.
Posted by David F. on April 11,2011 | 01:24 PM
Everyone gets all upset at the slavery. Hey, it happened everywhere, not just the South, and not just the USA
I find it amazing that people remark so often that a black slave was worth 3/5 of a person. Meaning male. Females were worth zero. zero.
Any race, anywhere. zero. count that.

CLAREMORE — Oklahoma residents may start seeing a new trend, not a return to the old west. At first glance, people might not think it is a blast from Oklahoma history.
Open season for open carry
- State/Nation
World leaders, South Africans honor Mandela
JOHANNESBURG (AP) — U.S. President Barack Obama exhorted the world Tuesday to embrace Nelson Mandela's universal message of peace and justice, electrifying tens of thousands of rain-lashed spectators and prompting a standing ovation by scores of heads of state in a South African stadium.
Speaker Shannon OKs hefty raises for House staff
While Gov. Mary Fallin and legislative leaders waited for the completion of an independent study on state employee pay, House Speaker T.W. Shannon approved more than a quarter of a million dollars in annual pay increases for his staff, according to House documents released Monday.
2 deaths blamed on winter storm in Oklahoma
At least two deaths have been blamed on a winter storm sweeping through Oklahoma that has brought snow and ice and bone-chilling temperatures.
Nelson Mandela mourned worldwide
Flags were lowered to half-staff across South Africa and people in black townships, in upscale mostly white suburbs and in the country's vast rural grasslands commemorated Nelson Mandela with song, tears and prayers on Friday while pledging to adhere to the values of unity and democracy that he embodied.
- Gov. Fallin warns $60M spike in health care costs
Below-cost Black Friday sales now legal in Oklahoma
For the first time in 70 years, Oklahoma residents can legally enjoy Black Friday mega-deals after legislators repealed parts of a law that prohibited retailers from selling items for less than they paid. Low-price retail events like Black Friday, in which retailers deeply discount items to attract shoppers, were technically illegal because of a 1941 law that required retailers to sell products for at least 6 percent more than invoice cost.
Speaker Shannon looks to build statehouse chapel
Oklahoma's Republican House speaker wants to add a chapel inside the Capitol that celebrates the state's "Judeo-Christian heritage," a plan that's raising the eyebrows of libertarians and legal scholars who wonder if it's constitutional.
Storm threatens travel, wind endangers NY parade
Thanksgiving travelers are scrambling to book earlier flights to avoid a sprawling storm bearing down on the East Coast. And high winds are threatening to ground giant balloon versions of Snoopy and SpongeBob SquarePants in the Macy's parade.
Supreme Court will take up new health law dispute
The Supreme Court agreed Tuesday to referee another dispute over President Barack Obama's health care law, whether businesses can use religious objections to escape a requirement to cover birth control for employees.
Sen. Burrage won't seek re-election
Senate Democratic Leader Sean Burrage announced today that he has decided not to seek another term in the Oklahoma State Senate. Although the Claremore Democrat would not have been term limited until 2018, Burrage said it was time to refocus his attention on his family and his legal career.

Most people look at the portion of the form that asks for the trademark international class and, not surprisingly, have no idea what that even means. Well, the good news is that the classification system is not really all that difficult to understand once you know how to navigate it.

I have an observation to make about the date of the Buddha's birth. The article says this archeological evidence puts the Buddha's birth in the 6th century BCE. I've read elsewhere that the dating came out at 550 BCE. Assuming what I read was accurate, I would think it would be reasonable to conclude that the Buddha could have been born in the 7th century BCE. He lived to the age of 80 and ministered for 45 years. I would argue that it is probable that a tree shrine/temple wouldn't have been erected until he had been teaching for a few years or even until his death. If it were erected shortly after his death, his birth could be between 640-630 BCE if I've done the math correctly.
Does anyone know if there has been any speculation as to the date of the Buddha's birth published by Buddhist studies scholars after this news broke? I'd like to read it and see what others more knowledgeable than I am have to say.

CHARLTON COUNTY, Ga. -- A high school teacher has been charged with multiple counts of having sex with students.
Danita Wilson, a 32-year-old teacher at Charlton County High School, is accused of at least seven counts of alleged sexual assault on a child, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
The charges allege at least seven different students are involved, according to Stacey Carson, GBI Assistant Special Agent In Charge. Carson said the alleged activity has been going on for more than a year. The young people involved are not all Wilson's students, but they are or were students at the school at one time.
The Charlton County School Board received a tip from an unknown source that was passed on to the Charlton County Sheriff's Office on Tuesday. At the request of the Charlton County Sheriff's Office, the GBI conducted an investigation, said Carson.
Wilson turned herself in Tuesday afternoon at the Charlton County Sheriff's Office.
"Charlton County School Board is dedicated to the education, safety and well being of all students. Currently there is an ongoing investigation regarding inappropriate conduct by an employee of the school district. All further inquires are being referred to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation." On Wednesday evening, Wilson was released from jail on a $35,000 bond. Juliette Wilson, a lifelong resident of Folkston, said she's horrified at the news of the allegations against Wilson. "This keeps happening," she said. "I don't know what these people are thinking that they keep doing this to children, that it's permissible. I don't understand it. Like I say, I'm horrified." Monet Milton, another Folkston resident, says it's a sad situation. "I think it is sad, I mean why would she do something like that?" Milton said. "It doesn't make any sense. She is out there supposed to be teaching and she is having an affair with students. That is sad."

Best Answer
So far, it seems very unlikely that the iPhone 4 will ever work with it directly. The Bluetooth Prot So far, it seems very unlikely that the iPhone 4 will ever work with it directly. The Bluetooth Protocol version which the fitbit device uses (4.0) is newer and more advanced than that of the iphone 4 (2.1, if I'm not mistaken). Without updated communications protocols (which I'm fairly certain are limited by the hardware of the iPhone 4), these two devices cannot communicate directly.
