This new barcode scanning feature in Air & Space is fantastic.
I would like to have seen all of the 'thumbprints' appear before individual photos, to act as an index. I scrolled thru all pics, forwards and backwards before I found thumbprints. Touching picture simply advanced to next rather than zoom in/out. Also, 'previous/next' are too close to picture - I sometimes touched picture when I really to move 'previous/next'.
Thanks for including this advancement in technology in Air & Space - this makes an already amazing magazine so much better.

The Many Contributions of Steve Jobs (1955-2011)
Steve Jobs died yesterday, at age 56, of pancreatic cancer, just weeks after stepping down from his position as chief executive of Apple Inc. The impact of the tech visionary is indisputable and has been reason enough for the National Museum of American History to collect Apple artifacts throughout the co-founder's career.
I spoke this morning with David K. Allison, associate director of curatorial affairs at the museum, who has a special research interest in the history of information technology. Though none are currently on display, the museum has the marked Jobs' extraordinary career with the acquisition of multiple Apple products to its permanent collections.
The Apple II, which went on sale in June of 1977, was Apple's "first big seller," says Allison. "The Apple II is really best known for being one of the first to run a spreadsheet."
Apple Lisa II Personal Computer
Released in 1983, the Apple Lisa was a lesser known, intermediate machine. "It was a very expensive machine—too expensive," says Allison. It didn't succeed in the marketplace. "But it pioneered many of the ideas that were later made cost effective in the Macintosh," he says.
When the Apple Macintosh exploded onto the market in 1984, it was billed as "The computer for the rest of us." Of the Apple artifacts in the museum's collection, Allison considers the Macintosh to be the most significant. "The Macintosh really introduced the graphic-user interface to the world," he says. A graphic user interface allows the user to open files and programs by clicking on icons or menu choices with a mouse."That really pointed personal computing in a new direction," says Allison. "It was outsold by the PCs when they came along," he adds. The original selling price of an Apple Macintosh was $2,495. "There was that whole debate over whether computers should be design oriented or business oriented. The profitability for most of history has been on the business side, but those weren't the cool things to own necessarily," he says.
Apple Newton and the iPod
After battling with CEO John Sculley for control of the company in 1985, Jobs left Apple, only to return again in 1997. During his absence, in 1993, the company launched its first handheld device. The Newton, as it was called, retailed for $700 and had its bugs. Apple almost went under trying to pioneer handheld technology that essentially over-promised what it could do. "They almost lost out by doing too much too early," says Allison. As Time magazine later reported, "Jobs revisited the scene of the crime to reinvent the PDA for the internet age, and wound up with a few devices that would have made the Newton proud: the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad." The museum's most recent Apple acquisition is an iPod. "I would say the Macintosh, the Newton and then the iPod really are all critical technologies in telling Apple's story," says Allison.
On the legacy of Steve Jobs
Allison was involved in the Computerworld Smithsonian Awards, a program lasting 12 years that recognized leaders in the field. In 1995, Steve Jobs was a recipient of the award and was interviewed at that time (bits of the interview have resurfaced in several recent articles). But Allison never had the privilege of meeting Jobs.
"He is clearly one of the iconic innovators of our lifetime," he says. "How he has been able to mix business savvy and design sensibility, by making his technology something that is really cool and seen as being very appealing to own, for so long with so many different products is, to me, the success of the company. In most cases, his devices weren't the cheapest. In some cases, they weren't even technically the best. But his technology was able to rise to the top in terms of desirability in the eyes of many people. Apple has become one of the premier technology companies in the world by really sticking with the notion of how to make things appealing to consumers and also very easy to use," says Allison.
Editor's Note: This post was updated to clarify Jobs' involvement in the release of the Apple Newton.

Steve Jobs had nothing to do with the Newton. It was one John Scully's mistakes, not Steve's. If you watch the 1997 WWDC video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnO7D5UaDig) you'll see that Steve thinks the Newton is 'a piece of junk'. Why? He didn't like handwriting as the primary input method and he wanted Internet connectivity. So he pushed for the iPhone. Only took him 10 years!
Why is the Smithsonian NOT setting up a special display right now? I know a lot of people who would be interested. I for one has company coming next week, and that would be a perfect day trip for all of us.
I am one of the billions mourning his death. I started my computer "life" on Steve's IIe and learned how to format AppleWorks spreadsheet for data in my coaching life and then reveled when the spell checker came along. His IIe's were the best computers for running the MECC software that many students learned to play Oregon Trail, Number Munchers and etc. You were a blessing to many! May the angels see you into paradise.

Lantern Parade at the Lamplighter Festival, Todmorden in England
My first attempt at a spherical 360° image was over twenty years ago at school, inspired by David Hockney's photo-montage work from the early 80s. The process (with a point and shoot film camera) was hit-and-miss, and the final result less than impressive. I put my panoramic photographic career on hold…
Seeing the earliest QTVRs in the late 90s amazed me and made me curious, but it wasn't until I was able to embrace a RAW-based digital workflow in the mid 2000s that I combined my interest in CG and digital photography, plunging head-first in to a world of panoramic photography. I've not looked back since.
My personal work often reflects recurrent themes of placement, enclosure, texture and light. My professional work covers a wide range of subjects and sectors… but in all cases I strive to capture both a moment in time, and a sense of place which provokes an emotional response from the viewer. The immersive nature of panoramic photography helps enable me to do this, and my passion for the medium has remained undimmed since the first spherical panorama I captured.You can view an extensive range of my work on my blog.
Having developed virtual reality (VR) content for a broad range of online panoramic solutions – retail, education, hospitality, tourism and industrial sectors – I have proven experience and am highly passionate and knowledgeable about developing panoramic content.
I've 20 years of professional design industry experience in print, digital and screen; working on 3D design, visualisation and imagery since the late 90s. I've specialised in digital, panoramic and immersive photography for the last decade, and am a member of the International VR Photographer's Association.
I also founded and led a specialist virtual reality team in one of the UK's leading shopper marketing agencies, delivering innovative VR solutions for brands and retailers including Disney, GlaxoSmithKline, L'Oreal, Thorntons, Boots, Argos, Homebase, Sky and Asda WalMart. These were deployed on multiple platforms – desktop, mobile and offline – as well as in dedicated immersive life-sized walk-in 'Virtual Labs' in London and Leeds. I bring that experience to bear for clients from a broad range of sectors – from retail to hospitality, healthcare to the arts – so they can benefit from innovative and eye-catching 360° solutions… and I enjoy shooting panoramas for pleasure too.
My personal work often reflects recurrent themes of placement, enclosure, texture and light. My professional work covers a wide range of subjects and sectors… but in all cases I strive to capture both a moment in time, and a sense of place which provokes an emotional response from the viewer. Realism, accuracy and detail are key. The immersive nature of panoramic photography enables the viewer to be placed in the centre of the subject matter… and I love putting them there.

Written by Brittany Tressler
Montgomery County Solicitor Ray McGarry plans to file an appeal on behalf of county Register of Wills D. Bruce Hanes, who was ordered on Sept. 12 to stop issuing same-sex marriage licenses in defiance of a state ban on gay marriage.
Hanes issued a total of 174 licenses between announcing his decision on July 23 and Sept. 12, when Commonwealth Court Judge Dan Pellegrini handed down the decision in response to a lawsuit from the Pennsylvania Department of Health.
Upon announcing his decision to grant the licenses, Hanes said that he took an oath to uphold the U.S. and Pennsylvania constitutions, citing the right granted to men to "pursue their own happiness."
According to Pellegrini, Hanes does not have the power to decide the constitutionality of Pennsylvania's same-sex marriage ban, and his decision to do so was in violation of his legal authority.
"Unless and until either the General Assembly repeals or suspends the Marriage Law provisions or a court of competent jurisdiction orders that the law is not to be obeyed or enforced, the Marriage Law in its entirety is to be obeyed and enforced by all Commonwealth public officials," Pellegrini wrote in the decision.
Hanes released a statement the day the decision was announced, stating that he was "disappointed," but would "fully comply with the court's order." Hanes also said there was a possibility for appeal.
Montgomery County Commissioners Josh Shapiro and Leslie Richards applauded Hanes for decision.
"The fundamental point that should not be lost is that two people who love each other should have the ability to get married and share a life together," Richards said.
Minority Commissioner Bruce Castor agreed with the judge's ruling.
"Whatever your take on the merits, executive officials cannot be permitted to decide which laws to enforce and which ones not to,"Castor said. "That is what this case is about. It is not, as so many want to make it, a referendum on same sex marriage."
According to McGarry, the appeal will be filed in the next several days; he plans to make no further comment on the issue until it is filed.

My daughter has been having reoccurring UTI symptoms since March. The pediatrician and urologist have seen her, they have tried antibiotics, medication to clean out her stool (something about constipation and inflammation causing symptoms, diet and fluid. Noting seems to work. Anyone have an experience like this? They just did an ultrasound and blood work today just waiting on the results.
I had recurring UTI's as a child. It turned out it was the bubble bath in my baths and/or the soap I was using in the bath. How old is your daughter?
She is 8. We have made it a point since she was little not to give her bubble baths because of that little problem. We are just so tired of her not feelling well and even having accidents when she has a uti because she can't make it to the bathroom. Just trying to help her before the school year starts again.
Poor thing...I feel for her. I had issues with making it to the bathroom in time also when I had my UTI's as a child. I do hope you get some answers soon. What type of soap does she bathe with?
How misserable! I would think that doctor knows best and would be able to give you some sound advice as well as what to avoid and what might help solve the problem.
Christine might be on to something as well. I remember my daughter having a problem like that and it turned out to be the bubble bath. Look at the back of the bottle of soap you are using and you may find a warning. I know that Mr. Bubble has a warning on their bottle.

Conditions of Use
On Friday, I went to High School Musical 3 with two of my friends. We all had fun at the movie, and then we all went to my church and helped at a dinner for homeless people. On Saturday, I had a 10:30 soccer game. We tied 4-4. I think we played a good game. I also went swimming at an indoor pool for my friends birhtday party, where she invited thirty-four KIDS. There were a lot of people but it was lots of fun. She invited five kids to sleep over at her house, and I was one of them. There was only one weird thing. On our way back , somebody with a red truck followed us all the way home from the party and kept shinning their brights at us from behind. Then, when we pulled into her driveway, they stoped at the top of her street. We were really scared.(When I say we I mean me and Bex.) So we ran into her house and locked the door. On Sunday, I went trick or treating at the park. After dinner we carved our pumpkins. And that was the end of my weekend=http://=http://=http://=http://=http://=http://

Members of the House of Representatives Thursday voted for the "Democracy Sustainability Act" that authorizes the state (through government's chest) to fund political parties that will achieve a minimum of 10% in general and presidential elections.
"This is a job well done to institutionalize our political parties in the country. It will sustain political parties and democracy in our country," according to Rep. Thomas P. Fallah, chair of the opposition CDC caucus in the House.
If concurred by the Senate and signed into law by President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, the Act would guarantee allotments from the national fiscal budget to political parties achieving 10% minimum threshold of votes in national elections.
According to the Act, the allotments will range from US$250,000 for parties with the minimum score of 10% to US$1 million for a party with the highest score of 50% plus 1 vote.
The decision to pass the ''Political Parties Sustainability Act'' now dubbed as the "Democracy Sustainability Act" which was earlier vetoed by President Sirleaf following a similar vote by the 52nd legislature, came immediately after lawmakers held a heated debate in chambers.
Some lawmakers argued that the bill will discourage "multiparty" politics since, only political parties that will meet the 10% threshold prescribed in the amended Act will benefit funding.
But others argued that it will "institutionalize political parties and discourage individualism in the administration of political parties."
"Government has a responsibility of sustaining these parties. It is therefore important that government provides public funding for these parties," according to Rep. Gabriel Buchanan Smith, House chair on Elections and Inaugurations
He argued that the practice of funding political parties is not unique to Liberia.
Several political parties flooded the country during the legislative and presidential elections in 2011, but just a handful of them are now visible.
Despite concerns by some lawmakers arguing that funding political parties would be a burden on "poor tax payers," Rep. Francis Paye welcomed the bill and encouraged other lawmakers to endorse it.
"We are the politicians, we pay our taxes, so I see nothing wrong with this bill," he added.
But Rep. Eugene Fallah Kparkar argued that allotting funds to few parties that would meet the 10% threshold required by the Act would discourage multiparty system in the country.
"If we enact this bill, only four parties would benefit. And I strongly urge you ladies and gentlemen not to take that route," he cautioned.
The bill was however enacted by his colleagues despite contentions from other lawmakers who threatened to battle senate concurrence.

New Lemont KinderCare director was charged for DUI with children in car
LEMONT – The recently named director of the Lemont KinderCare childcare center was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol while her children were in the car in 2011.
Rhabi Baker, who previous media reports say is from Olympia Fields, has been employed by KinderCare for six years and recently transferred from the Orland Park center, where she had been the director since 2011.
According to police reports, Baker was arrested on Feb. 27, 2011, in Portage, Ind. She was initially charged with a Class D felony for operating a vehicle while intoxicated, with an additional charge of having a blood alcohol content above the .08 legal limit and a misdemeanor for having two children in the car. Police said the charge constituted a felony because Baker had been previously charged for driving while intoxicated.

Cabo Chocolate Watch
Cabo Chocolate Watch
I love it. Very distinctive face. Beautiful color and very rich looking. Very comfortable leather band which I prefer over metal ones.
Looks good with most anything from dress to casual. I have at least 3 other Tommy B watches and this one has quickly become a favorite.
April 14, 2013
Classic and stylish
Bought this watch for my husband who was in need of a brown watch, and he absolutely loves it. It is as it appears. The brown/stainless mix is really nice and the chocolate color is rich looking. The face is easy to read. This watch can go from casual to a suit. A great buy!

Posted 7:17 PM 11/24/2012 : DUI Task Force to crack down over holidays
TUCSON - The Southern Arizona DUI Task Force is looking for drunk drivers this holiday season.
They stopped 257 cars Friday night, making 34 DUI arrests.
Christine Meneses spent Saturday visiting her father's grave. On December 20, 2008, a drunk driver ran into Marco Salazar and killed him.
"I worshipped the ground he walked on." Meneses said, "We all did. He was an extremely excellent father."
The driver of the car, Elizabeth Tuccini, was sentenced to 6 years in prison.
Meneses is happy to see more police presence this time of year.
"Had there been maybe more police officers on the road in 2008," she said, "maybe we wouldn't be here. We wouldn't be having this conversation."
She wants people to know they should not drink and drive.
"It's OK to drink. It's OK to drink over-indulging, if you will," she said, "but the bottom line is, you just cannot drive."
The DUI Task Force will set up a checkpoint Saturday night.

Update on Marathon closing
Author: Michael ZimmermannHere's a bit of an update to follow up on my previous post about Marathon's "End of Lease" sale.
Everybody that knows me would have been proud. I stopped into the store and managed not to buy too much – just a few sets of batteries, and a rubber foot for my walking stick. I'll probably be back for a knife when it gets closer to the end of their lease — I'm reasonably confident that they're not going to be selling to impulse buyers, as it's still a $100 purchase.

Posted 5:17 PM 3/13/2013 : Hit-and-run victim's mother speaks out
CATALINA - The Pima County Sheriff's Department says the man who is believed to have hit and killed a 22-year-old Catalina man earlier this week was also behind the wheel in deadly accident in 2004.
Deputies say Andrew Perez, 24, is being held in the Pima County Jail on a class two felony for leaving the scene of an accident involving death.
Tom Peine, a spokesman for the sheriff's department confirmed that Perez was behind the wheel ten years ago when his younger brother jumped on the hood of a moving vehicle that Perez was driving. The boy died a few days after the accident. Perez was 15 at the time. It's unclear if any charges were ever filed.
Jacob Lee Wyckoff was hit along the North Twin Lakes Drive in the town of Catalina. Deputies say Perez was behind the wheel.
Wyckoff's mother Julie Rogiers said she last saw her son in January. She said she didn't know he was a heroin addict, "it's so hard being a parent and not knowing your son is addicted. Not knowing the pain and the anguish he went through."
Rogiers said she has been reading her son's bible and journal since she learned of his death, "he wrote to his self the road to recovery begins with you Jacob. You have nothing to lose. That you have not already lost and everything to gain."
She said she wants something positive to come from her loss, "I want justice for jacob. I want justice."
The Pima County Sheriff's Department says the investigation remains ongoing.

House Democrats Call on Nixon to Oppose Cuts to Shear Institute
Wednesday, May 9th, 2012
Twenty-three Democrat women state representatives delivered a letter today to Governor Nixon governor asking him to veto SB 455, which includes an amendment abolishing the Sue Shear Institute for Women.
By Eli Yokley, Missouri News Network — May 9
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — A $250,000 a year expenditure threatens to stall passage of the state's $24 billion budget.
The issue is over whether the University of Missouri should continue to fund the Shear Institute, a public policy institute for women in politics based at the University of Missouri – St. Louis. Legislation barring the funding passed the House as part of a larger education bill earlier this year and now returns to the state Senate.
On Wednesday, House Democratic women penned a letter to Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon calling on him to veto the bill if it makes it to his desk.
"It is not the responsibly of the state legislature to micro-manage higher education public institutions as to their programs," said the letter, led by Rep. Stacey Newman, D-Clayton. "This sets a dangerous precedent."
Some Republican lawmakers, in particular, state Sen. Jane Cunningham, have insisted their believe that the institute is nothing more than a partisan organization.
Several top Missouri Republican women have also participated in the Shear Institute, including U.S. Rep. JoAnn Emerson, former State Treasurer Sarah Steelman, former U.S. Ambassador Ann Wagner, and former House Speaker Catherine Hanaway. Hanaway said Tuesday she supports effort to cut funding for the institute.

Osborn, 63, knows the lanes better than anyone – he knows the method of laying down the oil and has held the pins in his hands. That's because, since 1988, he has co-owned Fountain Bowl, the massive city landmark at Brookhurst Street and Warner Avenue.

The Dude drinks nine white Russians during the course of the movie "The Big Lebowski." We don't suggest you try to keep up with that pace, but if you want to drink along, here's a recipe to make them the way the Dude drinks them:
Mix two parts vodka with one part coffee liqueur, such as Kahlua, with one or two parts half-and-half. Drink over ice in a lowball glass. Kick back and do what have you. And abide.
"There's no secret to making a great white Russian. But I free pour my drinks. People just love extra vodka."
Karen Diaz, 44Fountain Bowl bartender
The Dude drinks nine white Russians during the course of the movie. We don't suggest you try to keep up with that pace, but if you want to drink along, here's a recipe to make them the way the Dude drinks them:

Karen Diaz, 44, Fountain Bowl bartender
9-10 a.m.: $2:50/game
$4/per pair
His mark is all over Fountain Bowl. He has a corner office. The bar, Ozzie's, is named after him. A photo album that sits on his bookshelf has pictures from different celebrations the bowling center has hosted over the years.
As such, Osborn is uniquely qualified to discuss the history of the sprawling 60-lane bowling center, which is entering its 39th year of business, and its place among the crown jewels of Southern California bowling.
"There are a lot of nice bowling centers in Orange County," Osborn said. "But ours is the biggest, our reputation is the most prestigious and we've maintained the center. I think we're considered one of the best ones."
Since Fountain Bowl opened in November 1974, it has been regarded as a top destination for amateurs and pros alike, receiving nearly 7,000 bowlers a week, and hosting regular charity events, countless Professional Bowlers Association tournaments and five U.S. Opens. In 2010, it was selected as the best bowling center in the Register's "Best of Orange County" list. In 2011 and 2012, it came in second behind the club-like Lucky Strike.
"It's great," said Mona Drake, 24, of Fountain Valley. "I've been coming here for years. It's in good condition, the lanes are nice and Barry (Asher) gave me lessons."
Asher is one of two pros who works at Fountain Bowl, and is the center's resident cult celebrity. He worked as the lead consultant in the Coen brothers film "The Big Lebowski," about a slacker bowler and his friends. The last shot of the movie is Asher bowling in the background. The PBA Hall of Famer, who has frequented every bowling alley in the county, was once adamant about never being a center's pro. But after learning that Fountain Bowl was looking for a new pro seven years ago, he decided to make an exception.
"I always hated the bowling pro business," Asher said. "But I decided I would do it here. I enjoy coming here. It's a nice center with good people."
Originally founded by a group of doctors, Fountain Bowl was built in an architectural style that, Osborn said, was ahead of its time.
"To have such a massive, free-standing structure without columns is impressive," he said. The lack of columns, he said, allowed for more lanes, making it optimal for large crowds and tournaments.
In 1988, the original owners sold Fountain Bowl to a group of investors, L.A. Land, which included Osborn. When Osborn heard that Fountain Bowl was available, he gave a two-word response: "Buy it."
"I had been working in Southern California for years by that point," he said. "So I knew what a great center it was."
Three years later, Fountain Bowl hosted the women's U.S. Open. It hosted again in 1992. Less than 10 years later, Fountain Bowl hosted three straight men's U.S. Opens, from 2000-02.
"We're one of the few centers in the country that has hosted that many," Osborn said.
And now, even though it has not hosted a U.S. Open for more than 10 years, the bowling center is still a Fountain Valley treasure. It hosts several charity events each year for nonprofits, including California Elwyn, Fountain Valley Kiwanis and the Kelly Osborn Memorial Scholarship Fund, created in the memory of Osborn's daughter who died in a car crash at 19.
Osborn said business is still going strong, as evidenced by the many leagues – from senior to his-and-hers leagues – that fill the lanes. But Osborn also said what makes Fountain Bowl special is its open-door policy – the staff wants to make everyone comfortable.
"A bowling center is a community," he said. "Bowling has a magical presence to it. You say 'bowling' and people smile, 'Oh, I love bowling.' Even if you're not good at it. So we try to appeal to everyone. That's what makes this place great."

Byerly's Wild Rice Soup
Monday, December 29th, 2008Anyone from the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area will be familiar with my favorite childhood grocery store chain, Byerly's. Growing up, I loved to eat this soup more than… well, any other soup. But I can't get anything like it in DC, so I've tried to recreate it myself. Of course, I did all this before Byerly's so kindly posted their recipe on the internet, so it's not exactly right, but I came awfully close. Either way, it's pretty delicious.
Byerly's Wild Rice Soup
Wild rice almost an hour to cook, so I buy fully cooked vacuum packs of wild rice from Trader Joe's. I don't taste a difference in flavor or texture; it's perfectly cooked out of the bag.
If you can't get your hands on a aged white cheddar, omit the cheese. I used an English cheddar aged 2 years and it has a rich, nutty flavor that adds a nice depth to the soup. Regular supermarket cheddar tastes radically different and won't work.
- 6 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup flour
- 5 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup milk
- 4 cups cooked wild rice
- 1 cup carrots, chopped into 1″ pieces
- 1 1/2 cups celery, chopped into 1″ pieces
- 1 8 oz ham steak, cut into 1″ cubes
- 1 cup grated aged white cheddar
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 tsp dried basil
- 1/2 tsp sage
- 1/2 tsp herbs de provence
- Salt and pepper to taste
1. In a large pot or dutch oven, melt butter over low heat. Once the bubbles have subsided, sprinkle in flour and whisk to make a roux. Continue whisking until roux is golden brown. Slowly add the chicken stock and continue whisking to get out any lumps. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
2. Lower the heat and bring soup to a simmer. Add milk, carrots, celery, ham, rice, and herbs. Simmer 10-15 minutes, until the carrots and celery are tender. Turn off the heat and stir in the cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste. (The cheese and ham are pretty salty, so you may not need any additional sodium.)
3. Remove bay leaf and serve with a sprinkling of sliced almonds. This soup also reheats and freezes well.
Makes about 6 generous servings.

Silver Ice Cream Container
Filed under: Dining
The little paper cartons that ice cream is packaged in are not terribly attractive, especially if you intend to include ice cream as part of your dessert when company is around or during a party. Since few things are more refreshing than a sorbet on a summer evening, to create an elegant presentation, most people resort to individually plating their ice cream desserts. You can slip the full cartons into one of these elegant silver-plated ice cream containers, however, and serve away. The container measures only 4" tall, but it will still make an impression at the table. Price: $95.

A special celebration event was held at Llancaiach Fawr recently as part of Caerphilly County Borough Council's Learning Festival held during Adult Learners Week.
The annual event celebrated tutors, learners, community centres and libraries, and was compared by presenter and opera singer Beverly Humphreys.Attendees enjoyed music by teachers from St Martin's School, Blackwood Electronic Keyboard Group from Blackwood Community College, and Beverley Humphreys was accompanied on guitar by Community Leisure Officer, Steve Hawkins to finish the celebrations.
Award Categories included amongst many others, Adult Basic Skills Learner, IT Learner of the Year, Arts and Crafts Tutor of the Year and Informal Learning Group of the year. Here we profile some of the winners of Special Achievement Awards;
Special Achievement Award 2012 Colleen Rogers
Colleen joined an Adult Literacy Group at an Education Centre in Caerphilly in September 2011 as a non-reader. Being a Romany gypsy she missed out on schooling and as a result hadn't learnt to read as a child. Driven by sheer frustration, Colleen found the courage to join the Adult Literacy group and hasn't looked back since.
New to basic skills classes Colleen has conquered all of the initial barriers that often prevent learners attending a class. Since joining the group her confidence has soared. Colleen is now able to deploy strategies that enable her to read simple texts independently and complete details on forms.
Colleen is special because of her sheer determination to learn. She has worked extremely hard and hasn't allowed the barriers of embarrassment to hold her back.
Special Achievement award for Innovate 2012
William Roberts is a dedicated learner on the Innovate project. Through attending the project William has improved his level of basic and social. He has also improved his understanding and awareness of his contribution to his community and this has improved his social responsibility and has now become an active volunteer.
William went to the project as a young person not in Education, Employment or Training. He initially completed a NOCN in ATV safe driving course, this entailed both practical and class-based learning and he achieved 100% attendance. He volunteered on this course to give support to pre 16 young people and families.
William been nominated by the project to be a volunteer as part of the 'Leaves of Hope' convoy team travelling to a Belarus Orphanage, home to 78 three to six year old orphans in July. He will be giving up his time to support these deprived children, and will be working as a team to improve the orphans' environment by painting and decorating and running a play scheme. He will be taking part in fundraising activities to raise the costs for his flights and accommodation.
Through participating in this project this young man's life has changed, he now has a reason to get out of bed in the morning. William now has an ambition to become a bike instructor and a Youth worker.
Special Achievement Awards for New and Expectant Parents 2012 Kersty Fudge and Coral Evans
Kersty and Coral have made considerable personal journeys whilst attending the Young and Expectant Parents Project, project staff feel extremely proud of what girls have achieved and the effort it has required.
Having young babies has not deterred them from continuing with their own education and personal development and as a result, in turn, their children will benefit from the experiences of these motivated and caring mums. Kersty and Coral both deserve recognition.
The skills and attributes Kersty and Coral have gained through attending the Young and Expectant parents Project have enabled them to participate in opportunities, where they can give back the same support they have received. One is participating in the trip to a Belarus Orphanage and the other is embarking on youth work volunteering.
All the winners have worked with determination, overcoming many obstacles to achieve training, qualifications and experience that will improve their lives, their families and their communities, for now and into the future.

Foreign firms eye China's rural markets

Energy technologies: some forecasts for the next decade
Affordable energy that is clean and consistent, delivered in a single system at a fraction of the price that people are paying today – 4.5 pence (US$0.07) per kilowatt hour (kWh) to be precise – isn't that too good to be true? John Banham, Chairman of Johnson Matthey, doesn't think so because these are the very benefits from fuel cells which are already powering homes and buildings in the US today. And it often comes from an unlikely source – methane gas from human waste.
Healthcare: at the crossroads
Healthcare reform today is being avidly discussed in political, social, medical and business circles around the world. In developing countries, the billions of dollars spent on containing the spread of HIV/AIDS and other pandemic diseases such as TB and malaria, are beginning to show some positive results. In Europe, the cost of government-sponsored healthcare is having a negative impact on GDP, while in the US, the Obama Administration is embarking on the country's most ambitious attempt at p

Falling Prices, Foreclosures and Fear: What's Next for the Housing Market?
The U.S. housing market has been wobbly for several years, but it has shown some signs of perking up in recent months. The latest reports, however, indicate a setback, with median home prices dropping slightly and sales well below the already depressed levels of 2009. Yet a combination of low mortgage rates and apparent home-price bargains should still be drawing some buyers into the market. Knowledge@Wharton spoke with Wharton real estate professor Susan M.

Sometimes you just want to get away. Your older brother and his friends are constantly camped in front of the TV, your baby sister won't stay out of your room, and you want some time to yourself.
But when you get it — maybe at a friend's house for an all-weekend DVD marathon or on spring break at Disney World — you're surprised to find yourself missing the chaos at home a bit.
What's that all about? Believe it or not, you're feeling homesick.
When you're homesick, you might feel nostalgic for familiar things like your family, friends, pets, house, or neighborhood. You can miss something as simple as your bed or the tree outside your window.
Homesickness isn't only for kids: Practically everyone feels homesick from time to time, even adults. Teens might get homesick when they leave home for the first extended period of time, like during a vacation with a friend's family or a summer job as a camp counselor. Going off to college is another common trigger.
Familiar surroundings, people, and routines provide a sense of security and comfort. In a new place, you may find yourself missing the comforts of home and loved ones. Those homesick feelings are completely normal.
Some people may only feel a little loneliness, sadness, or anxiety. Others may feel physical symptoms, like stomachache or headache, or even become truly depressed. Most of the time, once the new surroundings and people become more familiar, feelings of homesickness go away. But if you are feeling overwhelmed, it's a good idea to seek help from the school or camp counselor.
If you have additional stress in your life — like a divorce or a death in the family — homesickness can be more intense. When you're coping with other loss or change, you'll feel especially attached to things that bring you comfort and miss them more when you're not around them.
Luckily, homesickness is usually mild and doesn't last long. And you can do some things to make sure it doesn't spoil your fun:
Almost everyone has felt homesick at some time. Remember that there's a good side to homesickness, too: It means you have family and friends worth missing and a place you want to return to when your adventure away from home is over.

The Princess Bride
The entire world is at pause today as HRH Prince William marries the lovely Catherine Middleton. There is nothing to compare to the pageantry of this wedding. The streets of London swell with national pride as millions of Britons line the streets to catch even the smallest glimpse of the wedding party as they glide along in magnificent vehicles. Every moment, each tiny movement of both bride and groom, will be recorded for all the world to see. It is what one would expect from a Royal wedding. It is a day that will live on in the cultural life of England and the world for as long as this world exists.
On this day, I reflect upon the union of Christ and His Church. With what degree of anticipation do we await that day? Where is the excitement, the eager expectation for even one glimpse of the Bride? Do we spend time wondering about the Wedding garments, the guest list, the impact of that ceremony? Sadly, I think not.
I love weddings and the spiritual significance and representation of each movement, prayer, and recitation. There is something mysterious and wondrous about a wedding, which is meant to represent the union of our Lord and His Church. Although I rejoice with William and Kate in their glorious day, I long for the heart of God's Church to be drawn in like manner to the preparation of our union with Him. Let this union become more important to us than this Royal wedding has become to England. Let our lives become more focused on fulfilling necessary duties to Him, to each other, and to ourselves in order that the Day may come. Each moment of our day, every person with whom we come in contact, every deed we do in service to our Lord becomes a thread in the fabric of our glorious Bridal gown. I pray today that we would be knitted together in love one with another as we anticipate our own Wedding day with Him.

Should be a new person that chairman.
Chairman's position someone who shared by economic views.
Republican congressman Kevin Brady joins us now direct -- from Capitol Hill congressman always a pleasure welcome back so.
Good morning Stuart thanks -- I put it to you that if it was president Romney and he replaced Ben Bernanke.
And he replaced him with someone who wants to stop printing money.
Interest rates would go straight up and our economy would go straight down what's your -- so.
But one -- -- present Romney you know -- governor -- as president.

I think there's widespread agreement.
That it's not go to move the economy all this money printing.
But what about that and let me get back to what I was saying on the the other side of the -- if you don't print money.
And there's no more action from the Fed.
Isn't that don't interest rates rise don't you hinting that clear if all of a sudden and that could happen -- Ben Bernanke goes.
And I don't think it cliff is is necessarily -- result of that I think what we know is you cannot continue this.
Near zero interest rates.
Four years.
We know America's living on -- teaser rate.
Right now it's masking the true size of the deficit it has I think is gonna add tremendous.
To an inflationary spiral down the road so I liked the fact the governor Romney is not ducking the big issues and especially.
You know how we get this economy back on track.

Definition from Nolo's Plain-English Law Dictionary
A person who signs his or her name to a loan agreement, lease, or credit application. If the primary debtor does not pay, the cosigner is fully responsible for the loan or debt. Many people use cosigners to qualify for a loan or credit card. Landlords may require a cosigner when renting to a student or someone with a poor credit history.
