J. S. Morton Collection - GLMS 58
Introduction | Biographical Sketch | Scope and Content | Series Description | Inventory
The J. S. Morton Collection contains photocopied material made from original items in the possession of the Federation of Women's Clubs in St. Joseph, Michigan, the administrators of the Morton House in Benton Harbor, Michigan. The copying was performed in 1985.
The Historical Collections of the Great Lakes' collection may be reproduced for scholarly purposes and literary rights are dedicated to the public.
Processing of this one cubic foot collection was completed in January 1994 by Mark. J. Barnes.
J. Stanley Morton was born September 16, 1850, in Benton Harbor, Michigan, and died in the same city on October 1, 1936. The Morton family was an early arrival in the history of Berrien County, Michigan. Eleazer Morton, grandfather of J. S. Morton, arrived from Syracuse, New York in the late 1840s. By 1849 the house that held four generations of Mortons at what became the intersection of Territorial Road and Hull Street was under construction. J. S. Morton's parents, Henry C. Morton and Josephine Stanley Morton, expanded the house into the form that survives today. J. S. Morton lived most of his life in this house except for a few brief childhood years in Toledo, Ohio, and a short period before his marriage when he lived in another Benton Harbor house.
Morton married Carrie Heath in June 1871. Four children were born to the Mortons, but only two survived infancy. Raymond and Will lived to adulthood but died before their parents.
The primary commercial achievement of J. S. Morton was his co-founding and administering of the Graham and Morton Company shipping firm. Morton began his own steamship company in 1874 with one vessel that carried freight between Benton Harbor and Chicago. In 1875 Morton entered a partnership that formed the Graham and Morton Company. The growth of the fruit industry in southwestern Michigan provided Morton with the opportunity to expand his company with profits from shipments to the large consumer market of Chicago. The Graham and Morton Company was successful until a series of unfortunate events in 1914 and 1915, along with increased competition from trucks, placed the company in financial distress.
A heavy investment in new dock facilities and the purchase of the CITY OF GRAND RAPIDS required significant income to offset these expenses. The summer of 1915 was unusually cool. This event coupled with the deaths of hundreds of people on the Graham and Morton Company vessel EASTLAND at Chicago sent revenues plummeting as bookings failed to materialize. Over the next decade the Graham and Morton Company was in receivership several times.
A merger with the Goodrich Company of Chicago was completed in an effort to combat the growth of trucking companies that captured larger shares of the produce traffic headed for Chicago. Unfortunately, the Goodrich portion of the new company quickly went into receivership. A series of auctions followed in the 1920s and 1930s that brought an end to the Graham and Morton fleet after more than fifty years of shipping service.
J. S. Morton retired at the age of 75 but remained active in Benton Harbor civic activities. Morton was a mason and was involved in numerous fundraising projects in his community. At his death, numerous friends eulogized Morton as a community leader and valued contributor to the economic growth of southwestern Michigan.
This one cubic foot collection contains photocopies of original items in the possession of the Federation of Women's Clubs in St. Joseph, Michigan. Collection material dates from 1884 to 1951.
The principal item in the collection is J. S. Morton's diary for the years 1920-1932. The diary is contained in twenty-six of the thirty-one folders in the collection. The entries reflect Morton's interest in the shipping commerce of Benton Harbor-St. Joseph, Michigan area. Vessel schedules are noted. Comments on the business conditions in the Great Lakes are recorded.
Morton's community is described in three publications related to the Benton Harbor-St. Joseph, Michigan region and the commercial interests in the Graham and Morton company.
A scrapbook on Morton's life provides biographical information and details on the Graham and Morton Company. Many of the Graham and Morton vessels appear in the photographs in the scrapbook.
News clippings from 1912 describe the launching and maiden voyage of the popular steamer CITY OF GRAND RAPIDS that was part of the Graham and Morton fleet.
Folders 1-26
Arranged chronologically
Series contains a diary maintained by J. S. Morton. The diary is a photocopy of the original owned by the Federation of Women's Clubs in St. Joseph, Michigan. Entries usually include weather observations followed by brief comments on events of each day. Arrivals of vessels in Benton Harbor and St. Joseph, Michigan are noted. Observations on business matters and personal appointments appear frequently. Entries focus on shipping matters rather than on other events. Entries at the time of the 1929 stock market crash, for example, make no mention of the event but do note the inquiry into the foundering of the WISCONSIN.
Folders 27-29
1915, 1951, n.d.
Series contains photocopies of publications on the history of the St. Joseph-Benton Harbor, Michigan area. The material in Reminiscences of the Lower St. Joseph River Valley was written by Morton.

Practice nursing
Jess Danko
Practice development program coordinator
What does a practice nurse do?
Practice nurses are registered nurses (Div 1) or enrolled nurses (Div 2) who work in the general practice or primary health care setting. Some have postgraduate qualifications in Midwifery, Women's health, Chronic disease management, Immunisation and more.
Practice nurses have a variety of roles within their own scope of practice. This includes, but is not limited to:
- clinical skills in patient triage
- immunisation
- wound care
- chronic disease management and allied health coordination
- aged care assessments
- preventative health checks
- patient education
- women's and children's health checks
- pap tests
- systems improvement and audits
- data management
- clinical research
How does the GML support practice nurses?
Nurse education
We organise a variety of practice nurse education events across the Grampians region. These Practice Nurse Network meetings provide a strong education component, but also provide opportunity for professional networking and support.
- Ararat Practice Nurse Network meetings are usually held on certain Tuesdays from 10.00 am to 3.30 pm.
- In Horsham these are usually held on certain Thursdays from 10.00 am to 3.30 pm.

My boys are on a roll with coloring pages, much to my continued shock and amazement. I don't think they are necessary for homeschooling but if they want to do them while they listen to me read aloud, that is fine with me. They beg to be able to color with their Prismacolor colored pencils while I am reading aloud. We are learning about forest creatures right now and are using the Dover Coloring Book: Small Animals of North America by Elizabeth A. McClelland. These are high quality, detailed images which are even suitable for adults to color in.
I also have used some free coloring pages from www.enchantedlearning.com. I have not yet been able to justify the $20 annual membership fee which allows access to larger sized images due to our very tight budget, so I am settling for the smaller free images. I figured out that I could copy the information from the site and paste inside of my word processing software, I can then delete some or all of the text, leaving the image, then printing that on my computer printer. I would prefer the image to be full page sized, but this is what I have to settle for, for free.
For history, we continue to use coloring pages from within the Story of the World Volume One Activity book and also use some of the history themed Dover coloring books.
I keep a three-ring binder for each subject for each of my children. Their colored images, original artwork and narrations are kept in these notebooks as well. I'd add photos to these notebooks as well if I ever get to print the digital images which for now are stored on CDs!

Symptoms of Menstrual Cramps
Most women don't need a website to tell them when they have cramps; they just know. But there are several other symptoms that can accompany the cramps themselves, so here's a list of what's perfectly normal. (What's not normal is if you have cramps but don't get your period within a day or two. See a doctor.)
- pain in the lower abdomen that may extend to the lower back or inner thighs
- nausea and/or vomiting
- diarrhea and/or constipation (not at the same time, obviously, but maybe one after the other)
- sweating
- dizziness
Natural Remedies for Menstrual Cramps
Acupuncture has been shown to stimulate endorphin production in the brain. Since endorphins are not only natural painkillers but also appear to stifle production of the prostaglandins at the root of menstrual pain, acupuncture is a promising natural treatment for menstrual cramps.
Several nutritional supplements can be used to lessen the pain of menstrual cramps. Three in particular are supported by a fair amount of scientific research: clinical studies have demonstrated that thiamine (vitamin B1) is effective against cramps, Vitamin E inhibits prostaglandin production, and Omega-3 has the ability to reduce inflammation, which is a part of menstrual pain.
Okay, so maybe "honey, I have cramps" isn't the most seductive phrase in the English language. But for many women, orgasm helps to relieve menstrual pain. Chalk it up to the endorphin rush, or to rolling uterine contractions that either massage the cramp away or push fluid out of the body more quickly; the reason this works hasn't really been studied, and educated guesses abound. Bottom line: it usually works. So if you and your partner are both into that-time-of-the-month lovin', go ahead and get some. If not, you might want to schedule in some "me" time. If you get my drift.

It goes to show how careful one must be. In October, a post went up under Rossa's name on the Vimana machine.
Now the way much material comes through is by email and almost always there is a link somewhere – people sending material to me almost always do that. I've once or twice said something could not go up without attribution.
As you would gather by the number of posts which do go up here, multiplied by a dozen for the ones which don't and that means a lot of material and links. Somehow the links did not go up on this one and that could well have been my fault in my haste. There was certainly no attempt not to attribute.
However, it turns out the original, copyrighted article came from Robert Wilkinson at Aquarius Papers, a sharp-eyed reader spotted it and the rest was inevitable. As a blogmeister who has found his own original work appearing sans any attribution whatever on some Brazilian or African site, I am quite peeved when this happens, so I can understand Robert.
I've inserted this in the offending post:
17.01.2013 This article was originally published by Robert of Aquarius Papers:
It was not understood by me [the blog owner] that this was copyright material at the time. The fault might even have been mine rather than Rossa's, as it was emailed and I might well have failed to grab all the attribution – you'll see the rate at which posts go up.
This is no excuse, of course and Nourishing Obscurity apologizes unreservedly to Robert and is most pleased he has allowed the post to remain here. Nourishing Obscurity in no way condones or practices plagiarism, as Robert notes and the error has been corrected immediately.
We're obviously delighted that Robert has seen fit to grant us permission to leave the post up and we'll just need to redouble our vigilance in future.
For the NO authors and perhaps fellow bloggers as well, it is a salutary lesson.
Filed under: Blogging and cyber things, Earth and cosmos
4 Responses to "Plagiarism"
I'm surprised that Robert Wilkinson thinks his shite about Afghan flying saucers is worth copyrighting. After all, shrinks freely quote from their patients in medical journals, and none (to the best of my knowledge) have been sued. Perhaps, like David Icke, he should just get a life – unless the one reserved for him has been stolen by shape-shifting giant lizards (aka the joooooz)……
The issue with us is that whoever or whatever, if it's been lifted and it's that person's work, we're potentially in breach.
Think I'll do a short follow-up post on it for this morning.
Hats off to Robert
I see Ian has a truckload of bad attitude. As you rightly point out, James, this is about lifting someone else's work, even inadvertently. There was no threat of a lawsuit whatsoever so Ian, you're very much off topic. Whether Ian agrees with the content or not, surely he must agree that proper attribution is a necessity in an internet world. Thanks for the tip of the hat, Mark.

Dr. Mac
All things Mac on a floating hotel -- priceless
BOB LEVITUS | June 20, 2003
They called it MacMania II, the second Geek Cruise for Macintosh Enthusiasts. This year, our floating hotel and conference center was a beautiful ship called the Norwegian Star.
Almost a thousand feet long, she has several restaurants -- two "main" dining rooms, sushi, teppanyaki, Continental, Pacific Rim fusion, Italian, French, and an all-American diner that, like room service, was available 24/7.
Between meals there was lots to do, including diversions such as three pools -- two with waterslides -- two theatres, basketball, volleyball, shuffleboard, driving range, day spa, and fourteen lounges, bars, and nightclubs.
And on those long days at sea, there were killer Mac classes with expert instructors like Sal Soghoian, the entertaining and knowledgeable Product Manager of AppleScript for Apple. I got to see only part of his session, but both his AppleScript and AppleScript Studio sessions were jammed, and students were raving about it:
"Getting Sal Soghoian to show you the insides of AppleScript and AppleScript Studio -- heck, to just sit there and watch him debug a script, or see the shortcuts he uses to do things more easily, or show you where you're making mistakes -- is an incredible learning experience. Multiply that by the number of expert speakers we had on hand, and you begin to appreciate the value of attending such a conference." -- A.H. of Gladstone, Ore.
The other instructors were no slouches, either. The New York Times' State of the Art columnist and Missing Manual mogul David Pogue presented the Best of Mac Secrets and iPhoto: The Missing Crash Course; Bruce Fraser, author of Real World Adobe Photoshop 7, presented a slew of Photoshop sessions; I presented sessions on shareware, freeware and otherware, and becoming an OS X power user.
Macworld Editor Jason Snell discussed DVDs. Former Macworld Editor Andy Gore talked about useful hacks.
Andy Ihnatko, Chicago Sun-Times and Macworld magazine columnist, presented a scripting/programming session and demonstrated advanced robotic devices assembled from common household objects, before converting a Macintosh SE into an aquarium live, using multiple saws and other pointy objects.
Its hard for me to be objective because I had such a blast, but here's what other cruisers, who paid good money to be there, had to say:
"MacMania was more than a conference. It was a unique and exceptional experience. The speakers were all recognized Mac experts, authors and developers. It's hard to imagine a more impressive cast." -- T.D. of New York, N.Y.
"The classes on Photoshop, digital photography and printing, and Mac tips were particularly helpful. We definitely want our next cruise to include MacMania classes." -- M.S. and M.S. of Rochester, Minn.
"Fabulous! I learned so much about the Mac and OS X. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending a MacMania cruise to every Mac user out there." -- V.B. of Toronto
A few weeks ago I said that if you truly love him or her, the ultimate gift has to be one of Apple's third-generation iPods.
Forget it. Send those you truly love to MacMania III, Nov. 7-14, 2004, cruising the eastern Caribbean via Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

text: The bedrock floor near the mouth of most estuaries is usually buried by a thick accumulation of sediment. The texture and composition of sediment in estuaries in the United States is known to be a function of river basin geology, bathymetry, and hydrologic setting. Where sediment supply is inadequate to fill drowned valleys, clay and silt are usually deposited in the central part of bays and grade shoreward and seaward into bodies of sand. Where sediment supply and tidal range are both large, such as in Oregon and northern California in the western United States, the clay and silt are commonly swept from the channels and deposited on the marginal flats. In the Gulf Coast region, small tides and abundant fine-grained sediment tend to create very shallow estuaries. Silt and clay are usually deposited in lagoons behind barrier bars, although these grade into sands around the lagoonal margins. The character and distribution of estuarine sediment are influenced by many physical, chemical, and biologic processes, such as tidal currents, flocculation, bioturbation (the reworking and alteration of sediment by organisms), storms, morphology of the estuary, and human activities. The sediment type that is deposited, therefore, depends ... (200 of 35,658 words)Sedimentation in estuaries

Hanging Out
Coastal Living, Jean Allsopp
It's exotic and functional, with fun written all over it!" says the interior designer of the second-floor guest room. Teak platforms suspended from heavy-gauge rope take center stage, while a punchy striped fabric on the wall and Roman shade creates a seamless backdrop. "I don't use orange often," the designer says. "But here it provides a surprising pop of color." Engineered hardwood flooring echoes the rich graining of the bed platforms, and offers tropical-wood appeal at a fraction of the cost. It's environmentally friendly, too!

The last laugh; Could Bristol be left with only one comedy club?
Posted: October 02, 2013
|THE future of Bristol's biggest comedy club is shrouded in doom and gloom following the collapse of its parent company.
Just three years after a rescue package saved Jongleurs on Baldwin Street from the axe, the firm behind the club has collapsed under a mountain of debt.
Momo Leisure, which ran its Bristol and Nottingham venues independently, as well as organising comedy nights in Birmingham, London and Cardiff alongside nightclub owners, has been forced to call in the administrators.
The announcement follows the collapse of a market aimed at stag and hen nights and corporate functions, which was at its height just before the recession struck in 2008.
At one stage Bristol had three major venues but Jesters in Stokes Croft closed its doors two years ago and plans are now in now place to convert the venue into a mosque.
The recession has been particularly hard on young professionals and as a result companies running nighttime venues and clubs have struggled in recent years.
Following the latest collapse it is likely Bristol will have just one regular comedy venue, at the Hen and Chicken in North Street, Bedminster.
Momo was forced to go into voluntary liquidation this week making it the third firm linked to the Jongleurs brand to go under in four years.
Regent Inns, which owned the chain at the peak of its success, collapsed in 2009, with the rights to the brand name reverting to original founders Maria Kempinska and John Davy.
The club, which employed around 20 people, closed for a short time while a rescue package was put together.
And two years ago nightclub operators Luminar, which were running Jongleurs clubs in 12 of their venues was put into administration. As a result several of the comedy clubs were closed down.
The Luminar brand was rescued with a controversial 'pre-pack' deal which meant the firm could keep trading.
Just three months ago the firm announced a 'major partnership' with Momo to open more Jongleurs clubs and 'revitalise the much-loved brand'. The first venue was due to open in Cardiff this summer.
Momo was running the Jongleurs venues under a franchise licence and the future of the club in Bristol has been left hanging in the balance.
No-one at Momo was available to comment on the situation and it is still unclear whether the Baldwin Street club will remain open for business.
Over the years some of the biggest hitters on the circuit have appeared at Jongleurs on their way to fame including Bill Bailey, Jack Dee and Jimmy Carr.
A rival club owner said: "Jongleurs was great once, but it has been run into the ground and ruined. It seems clear that this business model - built around hens and stags and discount tickets - is broken, while the clubs run by comedy enthusiasts are doing fine.
"But I know this will make life worse for many club comics, who are generally saying it is really grim out there now."
People owed money by Moma have been told that Birmingham-based 'corporate recovery specialist' Rod Butcher has been put in charge of the firm's finances.
Creditors have been invited to a meeting on Friday in Birmingham to discuss the company's affairs and the likelihood of recovering their money.

Freeman-Sheldon syndrome
Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (FSS) is a very rare genetic disorder characterized by a small, puckered mouth, which gives the appearance of a person whistling. For this reason, Freeman-Sheldon syndrome is also known as whistling face syndrome. FSS may also be referred to as windmill vane hand syndrome or craniocarpotarsal dystrophy.
Ernest Freeman and Joseph Sheldon, two British physicians, first described this distinct disorder in 1938. The syndrome is characterized by skeletal malformations in the hands and feet and facial abnormalities.
In addition to the small mouth, characteristics of FSS include a flat, mask-like face, underdeveloped nose cartilage, contracted muscles of the joints of fingers and hand, and clubbed feet. Most of the features of FSS are caused by muscle weakness. In addition to those characteristics noted above, individuals with FSS may also have crossed eyes, drooping upper eyelids, scoliosis, hearing loss, and walking difficulties. Intelligence is usually normal, health is generally good, and life expectancy is normal.
Genetic profile
Usually, FSS follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. With this pattern of inheritance, the syndrome appears when a child inherits one defective gene from one parent. In some families, FSS follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. In these cases, the condition only appears when a child receives the same defective gene from each parent. This syndrome can also occur sporadically, that is, neither parent passes on the gene responsible for FSS.
As of 2001, the gene responsible for FSS has not been located. Current genetic research is focusing on chromosome 11. Some experts consider FSS a form of distal arthrogryposis, which has been mapped to chromosome 11, specifically to location 11p15.5.
Freeman-Sheldon syndrome is extremely rare. It affects males and females in equal numbers.
Signs and symptoms
Doctors can recognize Freeman-Sheldon syndrome at birth. Babies born with FSS usually have distinct abnormalities of the head, face, hands, and feet.
Facial abnormalities usually include an extremely small and puckered mouth, a full forehead, prominent cheeks, and thin, pursed lips. The middle part of the face may be flat, giving the baby a mask-like appearance. There may be a high palate, unusually small jaw, abnormally small tongue, and a raised mark or dimpling in the shape of an "H" or "V" on the chin. Other common facial abnormalities associated with FSS include widelyspaced, deep-set eyes, crossed eyes, and down-slanting eye openings.
Infants born with FSS may have malformations of the hands or feet, including clubbed feet. The muscles in the joints of the fingers and hands may be contracted.
Characteristics of FSS are often linked with other problems such as impaired speech, swallowing and eating difficulties, and vomiting. Children may fail to grow and gain weight at the expected rate, and there may be respiratory problems. Although most of the characteristics of FSS will be discovered fairly early in life, scoliosis (curvature of the spine) may be diagnosed later in childhood or adolescence as the child grows.

- Also Known As:
- Fort Murchison Uganda/Murchison Falls National Park
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Set on the Eastern banks of the slow flowing Albert Nile, Fort Murchison revokes the idea of a well maintained isolated outpost from times where Arab traders frequented the African hinterlands and legendary explorers lead expeditions in search of the source of the Nile. Accommodation in Fort Murchison consists of 12 ensuite units boasting spacious bedrooms with comfortable beds, bathrooms with countertop basins and showers with plenty hot water from solar heaters, private balconies... The atmosphere is a mix of African luxury with a touch of Swahili style. Away from the main accommodation, Fort Murchison also offers a more budget option in the form of some non self contained tents. Furnished with 2 single beds the tents share communal ablution blocks. Fort Murchison is situated in the former Aswa Lolim Game reserve, just outside the northern park boundaries of Murchison Falls National Park. The proximity to Tangi gate makes it a perfect gateway for convenient game driving through the park. ... more less

Key Points
- People are looking for information first, more than they're looking for traditional sales messages. The sales experience has to begin with information, which is content.
- Content is not a fad. It is a way to attract attention and build a loyal following that turns into actual revenue, profit, growth, and a customer base.
- To really make a difference with your content, you must focus on positioning.
- Come up with a content strategy that's related to what you sell and makes you into a likable expert. You have to be interesting enough to take the same old boring content, make it compelling, give people reassurance that you're the right source and overcome objections.
- Copyblogger has always relied on the quality of their content to produce links. It was always social media first, links second and search rankings would result because of this.
- Content is becoming a major part of Fortune 500 companies, where you can start to see the emergence of roles such as Chief Content Officer. This shows that the big companies are taking this seriously.
- Many small businesses recognize the value of content marketing. The challenge has become implementing the strategy and managing the day-to-day tasks associated with content production.
- Copyblogger runs as a software company, but also as a media company. On the media side, they are run similar to an online magazine, with editors, journalists and strict publishing standards. This editorial side of the company serves as their sole marketing function.
- You always have to stay relevant to and in tune with the audience, which means you're constantly doing research.
Full Interview Transcript
Eric Enge: Brian, can you provide a little background on CopyBlogger?
Brian Clark: Copyblogger Media is a software company that provides web-publishing software.
We started as a blog almost seven years ago, in January 2006. I built an audience talking about the very things I was doing to build that audience, and it evolved into a software company over the years. We now have 90,000 customers thanks to the 170,000 subscribers in our audience that allowed us to build our customer base.

Run Memtest on your ram and see if you get any errors. Try running the games without any Antivirus programs running in the background. Fill out your system specs in the User CP and click on the show box. Are you using onboard sound or sound card? EDIT: Also, check the event viewer in your administrative tools to see if anything or what is happening when the problem occurs, such as, misbehaving drivers/services/scheduled events/etc.
The new link: http://www51.zippyshare.com/v/70845650/file.html the new link : http://www51.zippyshare.com/v/70845650/file.html and my card driver version is 12.6 the problem doesn't related to the antivirus i tried all the options please help me and about the sound card i think its connected to the moderboard like a onboard sound sea sonic 620W please help me
Your description worries me, it sounds just like when my former graphics card was dying, screen turns off windows stuck and a buzzing sound coming from speakers, when did this start happening. To eliminate hardware fault do you have a spare graphics card\better PSU to test in your PC?
My friend had a similar problem on his older desktop. if its similar it is a problem with your graphics card overheating or dying. two steps to take would be to open the computer and clean the graphics card cooler thoroughly. And second of all get a friends graphics card and try his in your computer. this will rule out completely any problems with your graphics card. Which i think it is. Btw. its not your pc outputting "power saving mode". but instead its the monitor saying power saving mode since your graphics card is crashing and the screen is not recieving a signal and going to standby.
Is every game goes blank after a min or 2 min use a stopwatch to get that exactly, After that done keep your mouse moving everytime and see if it goes blank or not. If this does not helps you then this is not a Power Option Problem, Maybe there is a option of this in the AMD Driver Settings explore the settings and see if you find something that helps, I don't have a GPU so i cannot tell about GPU driver.

New report: schools, daycare, hospitals are cheek by jowl with fracking
By Alan Septoff
May 6, 2011
PennEnvironment has come out with a new report, In the Shadow of the Marcellus Boom. It's actually a print report and interactive map.
In a nutshell, it shows Pennsylvania has permitted well sites within two miles of more than 320 day care facilities, 67 schools and nine hospitals.
This is cause for concern because the state has a very recent history of well blowouts and water contamination that suggests proximity to drilling is a community health risk.
From PennEnvironment's press release:
Pennsylvania s vulnerable populations are often situated near Marcellus Shale gas extraction, which has had a track record of pollution, accidents and violations, according to a new PennEnvironment Research and Policy Center report, In the Shadow of the Marcellus Boom: How Shale Gas Extraction Puts Vulnerable Pennsylvanians at Risk.
The study shows that permitted well sites exist within two miles of more than 320 day care facilities, 67 schools and nine hospitals statewide.
Just weeks after a gas well blowout in Bradford County spilled thousands of gallons of chemical-laced flowback water and forced seven local families to be evacuated from their homes, our report shows that our most vulnerable populations across the state could be at risk to a similarly dangerous scenario, said Erika Staaf, clean water advocate for PennEnvironment Research and Policy Center. Whether it s air or water pollution, accidents or explosions, we ve seen that the effects of Marcellus Shale gas extraction don t necessarily end at the drilling pad s borders. We cannot put our most vulnerable populations at risk of these problems any longer.
Children are likely more vulnerable to the impacts of gas extraction because they are still developing. The sick and diseased, meanwhile, are more susceptible to health effects from pollution exposure.
I m like any other American parent who wants the best for their children. From the basics of water, food, healthcare, and a home, to the joys we had in our own childhood ice cold lemonade after a hot day of, climbing trees, playing hide and seek in the woods and building space ships to explore outer space, said Michelle Boyle, a nurse at Allegheny General Hospital and a parent of two daughters. For my own children I now worry if the woods that our children are playing hide and seek in will suddenly erupt in an explosion, like in Independence Township in Washington County, or like in Canton, Bradford County, where seven families had to be evacuated.
From Pittsburgh to Scranton, gas companies have drilled more than 3,000 wells in the Marcellus Shale and the state has issued permits for thousands more. During 2010, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) issued permits to gas companies to drill or deepen nearly 3,450 additional wells. With the industry projecting on the order of 50,000 new wells over the next two decades, gas extraction activity is likely to move into even greater proximity to more vulnerable populations across the region.

Take your pick: Buy BlackBerry 'Tellor Edition' or pay your rent
BlackBerry Tellor Edition is embellished with 205 diamonds--don't even bother, you can't afford it.
Meet the new Blackberry "Tellor" edition, a limited-release version of the popular Bold smartphone. 205 ridiculously shiny diamonds are impeccably laced onto the bottom panel below the keyboard (QWERTY and AZERTY models available), and you can even bedazzle it with extra flair, including Celtic crosses, inlaid initials, and ostrich/stingray/lizard/alligator skins.
If you have any desire to get your hands on one of these, we suggest you set up your lemonade stand now--they're only making 50 units, and there's no word on pricing...yet.

Improv Everywhere
February 28th, 2008 , Posted in UncategorizedThis is just the MOST fun site ever! Improv Everywhere causes scenes of chaos and joy in public places. Created in August of 2001 by Charlie Todd, Improv Everywhere has executed over 70 missions involving thousands of undercover agents. The group is based in New York City. Feels like being in school again, except the pranks are so sophisticated. I may just have to become an agent if I'm in NY during one of their pranks. Here's a fun one: On a cold Saturday in New York City, the world�s largest train station came to a sudden halt. Over 200 Improv Everywhere Agents froze in place at the exact same second for five minutes in the Main Concourse of Grand Central Station. Over 500,000 people rush through Grand Central every day, but today, things slowed down just a bit as commuters and tourists alike stopped to notice what was happening around them. Look at how creative their poses are, and how NO ONE MOVES!!!

Colt Resources Discovers Gold and Tungsten In Portugal
The Gazette reported Colt Resources Inc. (TSXV:GTP) believes it has found a future high-grade gold mine and a big tungsten mine in Portugal.
As quoted in the market news:
CEO Nikolas Perrault, a Canadian investment banker and junior mining company financier, was drawn to Portugal and its underdeveloped mineral resource sector by a well-known Portuguese geologist in 2006.
The tungsten (a toughener used in steelmaking and in alloys) property 300 kilometres north of Lisbon came much later. The projects need much more drilling yet and $150 million to $200 million of investment to reach startup in 2015, assuming the feasibility studies are favourable.

A fantastic project is underway to create 14,000 pennants, one for each participant of the London 2012 games and the organisers are looking for your help!
Quilts4London is a fantastic project to make pennants for all the athletes in the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The aim is to make an A3-sized pennant for each athlete participating in the Games - about 14,000 pennants in total.
The organisers, who spoke about the project at the Voluntary Arts 'Growing the Grassroots' seminar on Tuesday (18 October 2011), need to get many pennants made by the end of this year, so are looking for people to help make the pennants and also spread the word about this fantastic project which has been awarded the Inspire Mark.
The project is open to people of all ages and abilities and gives quilters, felt makers, embroiderers and textile artists the opportunity to express their support through the medium of fabric, fibre and stitch.
The idea came from quilters Irene Heathcote and Catherine Hill. Instructions and templates are freely downloadable from the website at www.quilts4london.org.uk. The International Felt Makers Association, Batik Guild, Cross Stitch Guild, UK Hand Knitting Association, Guild of Silk Painters, the Braid Society, and the Woodturners of Great Britain are involved – it is a wonderful way to showcase the diverse forms of textiles.
Marilyn Lovett, President of the Quilters' Guild of the British Isles said: 'Being part of the Cultural Olympiad creates a real buzz, with people feeling that they too could be involved in the spirit of the Games.'

By Helen Anders
American-Statesman Staff
Torchy's Tacos and Hey, Cupcake trailers are parked in the lobby of Four Seasons Austin. Nearby sit the Continental Club, University of Texas Tower, Seaholm Power Plant and Jo's Coffee. They're so cute, you could eat 'em up.
You really could. They're made of gingerbread. This year's holiday gingerbread house display at the Four Seasons features iconic Austin: places we all know and love, formed from gingerbread and decorated with frosting and other edible accoutrements. Food trailers sit amid the Broken Spoke, the Salt Lick, the Cathedral of Junk and the Four Seasons itself, along with both the Congress Avenue and Capital of Texas Highway bridges.
"These are some of the iconic places in Austin that have a variety of architecture and design," says pastry chef Javier Franco. He and his staff started construction Nov. 1, and the village went up in the lobby Tuesday.
Using various types of batter and frostings, Franco's team of five decorated the buildings in minute detail. Jo's Coffee displays tiny pastries. The Continental Club has cracks and boasts a tattoo sign on the side and a bike rack out front. Air-brushing helped age the Continental and other gingerbread houses. Metal roofs and trailers were decorated with "luster dust" that's edible, though you wouldn't want to fill up on it, says Amanda Pallagi, chef de partie, who along with Courtney Brade helped Franco craft the miniature version of Austin.
"The idea is to make everything edible," Franco says.
Amid the buildings are peppermint trees, signs, water features, guitars and public art such as the rotating bat on South Congress. An excellent copy of the Willie Nelson statue was forged from a block of chocolate by pastry artist Julia Doubleday. Kerby Lane Cafe contains small versions of the paintings that hang on its walls. Both the miniatures and real paintings are by Andrea Morgan, who also is a server in the Four Seasons Lobby Lounge.
Each piece in the display is for sale ($200 for some decorations to $575 for the most elaborate buildings) benefiting Seton Shivers Cancer Center. Over the eight years the hotel has been selling its gingerbread houses, more than $42,000 has been raised, spokeswoman Kerri Holden says. If you want to buy a house, the front desk can arrange it. You can't take it home until the display is taken down Jan. 1, though.
Four Seasons Gingerbread Village
Free to view in the lobby through Jan. 1.
Special Gingerbread Village Open Houses Dec. 3, 4 and 5 from 5 to 6 p.m. Complimentary hot apple cider, sparking wine and cookies. Pastry chef Javier Franco will answer questions, and Santa will be on hand, too.

Life is such a fragile thing…
Delicate yet so incredibly wonderful and precious.
Don't ever take even a single moment for granted.
Never wish away a second, minute or hour,
as there is only one chance for each breathtaking instant.
Maximize that moment,
and treat each others with respect,
When those moments magically mingle,
and people's worlds connect…
Live life to the fullest,
Attempt to realize your every dream,
remind your friends, family and even strangers
how much they mean to you.
As you can; never know,
never tell,
never predict,
when life will be extinguished,
and all that will remain is your memory…
How do you want to be remembered?

Rep. Nydia Velázquez, D-N.Y., chairwoman of the House Small Business Committee, says the IRS should do more to help small businesses get on top of their taxes. She suggests educational sessions, flexibility in making payments, and quicker processing of refunds. Yesterday, she sent a letter to the IRS commissioner noting that, according to the Government Accountability Office, entrepreneurs can be stuck with filing 200 IRS forms each year. Simplifying this process could help keep more small businesses open, she says.
Velázquez and her committee recommend that the IRS take the following four actions:
- Process COBRA refunds more quickly, so small businesses aren't stuck making COBRA payments for months before receiving their reimbursements promised by the Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
- Process small business tax refunds quickly.
- Offer flexible options, such as installment agreements and postponed collections, to small businesses that are struggling to pay their taxes because of the recession.
- Help teach small businesses more about tax preparation by holding open-door sessions aimed exclusively at small businesses. (The IRS already provides such a service, known as "Super Saturdays," to taxpayers, but so far no Super Saturday has focused on entrepreneurs.)

GRAND JUNCTION – Amidst a backdrop of Wall-Street jitters over the bankruptcy of 158-year-old Lehman Brothers, presidential candidate Barack Obama spoke to over 6,700 citizens gathered at the Cross Orchards Historic Site in Grand Junction at noon on Monday, Sept. 15.
Obama said that this latest development in the financial world is "as bad as anything we've ever seen…This is a serious, serious situation. We'll have a lot of rebuilding to do. This turmoil is a major threat to our economy. There are too many folks in the U.S. and Washington D.C. who weren't mending the store. This is the most serious financial condition since the Great Depression."
Obama said that problems with U.S. financial institutions would not be addressed by Sen. McCain. "A few hours ago he said the fundamentals of the economy are still sound. I ask McCain what economy are you talking about? What's more fundamental than knowing whether you'll have a roof over your head at the end of the day?"
The Obama campaign was the first visit to Grand Junction in 60 years by a Democratic presidential candidate, the last time being when President Harry S. Truman campaigned there in 1948. Republican candidate Bob Dole spoke in Grand Junction in 1996.
Over 45 Ouray County Democrats made the journey to Grand Junction for the speech; those present also heard Colo. Governor Bill Ritter and U.S. Senator Ken Salazar make introductory remarks before Obama appeared.
In a presentation that lasted for over a half an hour, Obama pledged to end what he called the country's "oil addiction" within 10 years, with a White House policy that would aggressively promote renewable energy including solar, wind and new biofuels, while also tapping natural gas reserves. He lauded Colorado for being at the "forefront of clean energy."
Obama also promised to cut taxes for 95 percent of working families, and said that families earning $250,000 or less will not have their taxes changed.
Obama challenged Sen. McCain to define what he means by "change." "Change isn't about slogans; it's about substance." He said that if Sen. McCain "now wants to talk about who can bring change to Washington, then that's a debate I'm happy to have."
Obama stressed that he would never challenge McCain's motives or patriotism, but did address McCain's recent statement of putting corporate lobbyists "in their place." "But he hasn't explained why he put seven of them in charge of his campaign: lobbyists for the insurance industry and for the oil industry, and for Freddie Mac and foreign governments. And if you think those lobbyists are working day and night for John McCain just to put themselves out of business, then I've got a bridge to sell you in Alaska."
Obama also stated that the policies of a McCain administration would parallel those of the current Bush administration, saying: "We know what the consequences are: a meltdown on Wall Street; millions without jobs or health care; pain at the pump. Enough." After that statement, the audience erupted into cheers and applause, followed by chants of "Obama, Obama, Obama."
