Rogers Park Seed Library Organizing Meeting
Are you interested in helping organize a Seed Library in Rogers Park? Then come to LETS GO Chicago's meeting on Wednesday November 19th. We have received a grant from Shareable to build a library in the neighborhood and are looking for neighbors interested in helping design and run the project. Come learn more!
Location: 1545 W. Morse Ave at the United Church of Rogers Park
What is a seed library?
A seed library, or community seed bank, is a collection of seeds which are made available to the public to promote biodiversity, heirloom garden varieties, and to teach about seed saving and starting. Seed library members "check out" seeds from the library to grow in their gardens. Some seeds that are saved from these plants are then deposited back into the library so they can be made available to more gardeners.
Please email email@example.com for questions or for more information.
Some Fall Garden Snapshots
Summer Gardening Classes
Hello LETS GO followers!
My name is Molly Hulseman, and this is my first year with the Summer Of Solutions team. I am working with the Children's Garden at the Koinonia house on Ashland. My schedule is different than most summer participants in that I come to SoS just on Mondays.
We are almost 1 month into our program. It began slowly. No children showed up the first day of children's garden, but the week after we had as many as 15 kids at the garden.
Children's garden has been going along very smoothly! The goal of the children's garden is to teach the kids about the importance of plants, organic foods, and growing crops in a city. Each week we decide on a theme, and teach basic lessons on the themes that we have chosen. In our first week we talked to the kids about the water cycle as well as how water allows plants to grow. The next week we talked about the sun's influence on plant growth.
This week (the third week) we taught the kids about the solar system. We taught them ways to remember the solar system. For example MVEMJSUN (My Very Enormous Mammoth Just Sat Under Nana) was how we remember the order of the planets. We also explained to them the reason humans and plants can grow on earth is because of its place in the solar system. In their first activity we had them paint their own planets. Then we cooked pizzas from flour tortillas, pizza sauce, cheese, and whatever they wanted to pick from the garden. Lettuce, chives, onions, and even raspberries were added to some of the pizzas! We ended the day by letting the kids water all the plants in the garden. It was a refreshing way to end the hot day!
My favorite moment in yesterday's solar system lesson was when the kids had a chance to draw on the solar system map. With the solar system at the center of the table in the garden, all of the kids had a chance to drawn on the solar system. I asked them to draw extra stars, spaceships, and even aliens on Mars. They all jumped in excitement when I asked them to draw aliens on Mars, almost shoving each other out of the way! We had to tell them to do it one at a time! It is always a rewarding experience when you can get kids excited about an activity.
This experience so far has been very rewarding for me. I came into this program knowing very little about gardening or growing plants. I have learned the true value to growing organic fruits and vegetables. I also have learned that so far I have so much more to learn. Teaching is a great passion of mine. I love when I can teach with students who want to learn. These kids just love to learn! This program has opened my mind to many possibilities to making a brighter, greener future for myself. I am so thankful to be a part of this group of people. I truly believe we are helping improve this city, one seed at a time.

I thought this image of a Buddhist Monk and Temple (Wat) may be of interest. Yes, I used Photoshop on this image...no surprize I am sure.
I took the Temple (Wat) image along the Mighty Mekong River on a two day river journey from Laos to Northern Thailand. The Monk was taken in Cambodia at Ankor Wat. This image really speaks to me. The colorful Monk and the Silouette of the Temple with the setting sun work well together as a composition in my opinion. Each Monk is the same image duplicated several times. I altered the size and opacity of each Monk in Photoshop which is quite simple. The Temple and the Sun are one image which I used as the Background Layer in Photoshop. You can see the temple image without the Monks in my Laos Gallery on FAA if you wish. Other than that nothing is complicated about making this image.
I love the color and the way the Monk(s) seem to float above and beside the Temple as if they are on a journey...the Journey Seeking Enlightenment. The main tennant of the Buddhist Faith, as I understand it, is simply "Seeking Enlightenment" and hence the title of this image.
Although there is much to look at in this frame it still seems a light and simple composition...not cluttered although there are a few elements there. I think it appears uncluttered as there are only Monks, the Sun and a Silouetted Temple for the eye to track.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The fadno is a reed instrument of the Sami people (also known as "Lapp") of Scandinavia. The instrument features a reed and three to six (generally four) fingerholes,[1] and appears to have no parallels among the surrounding Scandinavian peoples.[2]
The instrument is made from a 15-30cm length of the angelica plant (fadno, the term for one-year-old angelica), from which the instrument derives its name.[3] The instrument's reed is unusual, categories as "idioglottic concussion reed".[4]
Fadnos were played with Sami drums together with joik.

Wall Sconce Lighting
Wall sconces have been a popular lighting choice for centuries. Before electricity was invented people used candle wall sconces to light rooms. Today, wall sconces are still appreciated and valued by homeowners. They provide a soft glow upwards or downwards on the wall or sometimes even both. Wall sconces are a practical way to light a space without being obtrusive and taking up too much space. Perfect lighting for stairways, hallways, bedrooms, and any spot in your house that lacks light. Natural focal points for wall sconces are walls painted in bright colors and fireplaces. They can either be very unique to the room or match other décor. Available in all shapes and sizes, sconces can exhibit modern or traditional style. Traditional style uses a brass, nickel, or wrought iron finish and typically has a candelabrum in the fixture, which holds a modern day candle fixture with either an exposed or shaded bulb. Modern sconces have glass shades either etched, clear, or white, are backed with a chrome or brushed nickel finish, and generally have clean lines.

Photos: Sefko's Mavs' roster outlook for 2013-14 - keepers, sleepers & weepers
Photo: Vernon Bryant/Staff Photographer
SLEEPERS: G Mike James. Key numbers: Came off the couch to start 23 of the 45 games he played for the Mavericks. Shot 37.9 percent from 3-point range. Contract: Unrestricted free agent. Opening day age, 2013-14: 38. Outlook: The combo guard did a commendable job of coming to the Mavericks out of the blue and serving a solid role as the starter and sometimes finisher at point guard. He's not the scorer he once was, but he still hit 3-pointers at a nice rate, and that's always a good asset to have around. Roster meter: 25 percent, although it could be higher. He might be a perfect backup if the Mavericks can pull a full-time starter out of the free-agent market.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- DSS Research announces their Senior Health Risk Assessment (SrHRA). The tool combines solid science and proven tools into a single scoring system. It uses a variety of established measures regarding physical and mental health, preventive care and current health care usage, into an integrated survey tool. Using this tool, members are categorized from low to high risk on a number of dimensions including overall health, mental health, frailty, probability of hospital readmission and other general risks based on existing conditions and lifestyle.
The online reporting system provides a comprehensive set of reports that gives a complete picture of the overall health of members, results for individual members and the ability to search the member health risk database on a wide range of criteria. Results can be summarized for any subpopulation of interest, and individuals can be selected for intervention based on criteria established and entered into the reporting tool. Summary reports can be printed for case managers, and personalized reports can be mailed to individual members or given to their health care providers for patient follow-up.
DSS Research has been doing health risk assessments (HRAs) for more than 20 years.
"Addressing member health in a proactive manner is a win-win-win proposition that will result in a better quality of life for the member, lower cost for the plan, and lower utilization and costs for the health care system," says Roger Gates, president and CEO, DSS Research. "We are able to analyze HRA survey results in relation to claims and clinical data to identify those measures that are truly predictive of risk, and to develop meaningful norms for different population subgroups."
For more information on the Senior Health Risk Assessment and an online demonstration, contact Dave Nixon at 817-665-1845, dnixon@dssrese

Houston, known as the Energy Capital of the World, is also a progressive city where environmental initiatives abound. Go Green ›
Houston Ballet, the fourth largest ballet company in the country, has been hailed by The New York Times as "...one of the nation's best ballet companies."
The ballet's 115,000-square-foot, $47 million Center for Dance building opened in downtown Houston in April 2011. It is the largest professional dance company facility of its kind constructed in the U.S. The six-story building, designed by Gensler, incorporates sustainable features throughout nine dance studios, a dance lab that seats 200 for performances as well as rehearsals, and artistic, administrative and support facilities. The building more than doubles the space Houston Ballet had at its former home.
The Houston Ballet Foundation was founded in 1955 to create a resident ballet company and to start a school which would train its dancers. Houston Ballet Academy was founded that same year, and the professional company was founded in 1969 under the direction of Nina Popova, a former dancer with the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo and American Ballet Theatre.
Ben Stevenson served as artistic director from 1976 to 2003 and transformed the company into an internationally renowned troupe, making stars of principal dancers Janie Parker, Li Cunxin, Carlos Acosta and Lauren Anderson. Stevenson's full-length ballets, including Cleopatra, Dracula, The Snow Maiden and Cinderella, remain in the company's repertoire.
Australian choreographer Stanton Welch assumed the helm in 2003 and is credited for his contemporary, edgy ballets, including a new world premiere of Swan Lake and his signature ballet, Divergence.
Throughout its extraordinary growth period, Houston Ballet's operating expenses have grown from less than $1 million in 1975 to over $16 million today. In May 1987, the company launched an ambitious endowment drive. Houston Ballet's endowment stands at over $53 million, making it one of the largest endowments of any dance company in the United States.
Houston Ballet performs at the Wortham Theater Center in downtown Houston.

Rather than sequencing the entire genome of each species, the researchers are focusing on a non-coding region of the ribosomal DNA that is known to be unique in each species. The length of the region varies from around 450 base pairs to 900 base pairs, depending upon the taxa from which it is sampled.
"If you're going to cross-compare species, you've got to amplify the same region," said Sarah Bergemann, the post-doctoral researcher in ecosystem science who is heading the lab analysis work at UC Berkeley. Bergemann is working with Amy Smith, staff research associate at Garbelotto's lab, to process the samples Garbelotto sends from Italy.
"This will be important for people who study the evolutionary characteristics of fungi," said Bergemann. "They'll be able to use our database for cross comparisons. It's also useful for people who study species distribution. For example, if you want to figure out how some species are related to one another, and you know something about their taxonomy, you can go back to their DNA to see if the morphological characteristics match their molecular code."
Without the DNA fingerprint, researchers traditionally need to wait for fungi to fruit or mushroom to identify them. "This can be very limiting because mushrooms are only produced seasonally, with some species only fruiting once every several years," said Garbelotto. "The database we are creating will allow people to identify the fungi present in plants, in the soil and in the air at any time."
The project, which began in April, is expected to be completed by the end of 2007. "We do not know of any similar project in Europe, at least of this dimension," said Enrico Ratti, the museum's scientific director.
"The importance of this project is in the cooperation between different subjects, namely private collectors, a private association, a public municipal museum and a foreign unive

Plants and animals have special characteristics, or traits, that help them survive in their surroundings. They develop these traits through a process called adaptation.
- adaptation - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
The process by which a species becomes better suited to its environment is called adaptation. It occurs when natural selection acts on a heritable trait, or characteristic, that allows an individual to better survive in its environment. Organisms with such a trait are more likely to thrive and reproduce in that environment and pass the beneficial trait on to their offspring. In contrast, individuals in the same environment that lack the adaptive trait are less likely to survive and produce offspring. Over time, more members of the population will have the adaptive trait relative to those that lack it.

Balance : Indicates the proportion between these four components : alcohol, acidity, sugar and dry extract. A wine is well-balanced when none of those characteristics dominates; the balance is harmonious. The general balance means the proportion of smooth and harsh in the wine.
In the mouth this is kind of dense and chewy with a nice hit of dry extract on the palate. Powerfully rich yet well delineated, this offers up layered intensely mineral apple flavors with a late arriving touch of bitter melon. The moderately long finish on the other hand is totally salty ...
ExtractIndicates a lot of flavor, especially when the wine would indeed be shown in a laboratory to have a greater amount of dry extract (big, heavy or intense).ExuberantA wine that is gushing with fruit and intensely vigorous.

Prognosticators vs Pollsters: Election 2012 by the Numbers
Every four years we all become "experts" in the oft forgotten political realm, bandwagoneers if you will. Party lines aren't drawn by institutional ties or by your college football allegiance but rather by the compulsion to actually feel involved in our civic duty. Just like the popularity polls in college football, everyone has their own criteria for amassing polling data used to forecast a winner. As a man who lives by the power of numbers, popular opinion rarely resonates in my decision making process. Empirical evidence exists to predict the winner of today's election long before it becomes official. If the betting parlors in far away places taking action on today's vote are any indication, our president for the next four years has already been determined.
It's important to understand betting on any federal or state election is prohibited by the gaming control board here in Nevada. To find political wagering opportunities, a bettor has to explore other options before being afforded the opportunity to bet on the outcome. Polls reflect bias not only in the way they're constructed but also in the way votes are solicited. However, betting houses seeking to make money on an event of this magnitude are forced to respond to the flow of money rather than what a left or right leaning newscast tells them. Over the last week, money has poured in on the incumbent pushing the price from -165 (implying greater than a 55% win probability) to the current price of -450 (implying nearly an 80% success rate). To put into terms I feel most comfortable with as an oddsmaker: the huge move is like a football pointspread being bet from -3.5 all the way up to -10.
"Gallup has released the results of its final poll of the Presidential election finding a "statistical tie" with Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney at 48% and Barack Obama at 47% — with polling results now having returned to Oct 1 -7, basically wiping out Romney's debate gains and registering high approval for Obama's handling of Hurricane Sandy." - courtesy of the Final Gallup Poll last evening. It's rather interesting when you compare Gallup's results to the prices being offered by betting parlors which suggest a much more lopsided outcome.
If Gallup's poll is the definitive measure and has shown a history of being the most accurate indicator, why would bettors be willing to risk $3.50 to make back $1 on their investment? Here in Vegas we've always been of the mindset money in the marketplace means more than 1,000 educated opinions because if you're not willing to invest, bravado merely makes you"re a blowhard. Oddsmakers have no hidden agenda, no preceonceived notions, nor an inclination to set up a trap for an election which will be determined by the populace.
Another strong indicator on how the general public views an event's likely outcome is Intrade. Betting exchanges strive to balance the market the same way buying and selling of stocks creates stability on the NYSE. As of this morning, "shares" of Barack Obama were trading at their highest in months with the numerical correlation revealing a 71.4% probability he secures a second term. If you take umbrage with how the market being established at Intrade is playing out, understand the gamblers at Betfair, (Europe's most fluid betting exchange), are offering shares of Mitt Romney at an even higher price than the American facing books revealing they think he's a major longshot. I'm hardly a political pundit but when you're using numbers to back up confidence intervals, it's growing harder to argue with the picture being painted by the sportsbooks around the world for election 2012.

Lady Gaga wants to have her cake...and do a lot of other things to it, too.
The "Born This Way" singer, 26, served up a second helping of her new rap ditty, "Cake," with a 15-second teaser video to follow up last week's risque trailer, in which she splashed around in a tub with two other girls and danced seductively in front of a mirror.
PHOTOS: Lady Gaga's body evolution
The second sneak peek manages to be even more provocative than the first. In it, Gaga writhes around on a table in a pile of buttercream icing, wearing nothing but underwear, a matching bra, and sky-high stiletto heels. At one point, she stares into the camera and licks a dollop of frosting from her finger.
PHOTOS: Gaga's wacky wardrobe
The short clip -- which was directed by famed fashion photographer Terry Richardson -- also shows Mother Monster cleaning up in a tub while flaunting her, um, assets in a G-string.
Gaga first debuted the rap song at the Mugler runway show in Paris in September. It was produced by her pal DJ White Shadow and includes lyrics like, "Walk a mile in these foot-high heels/I run in these, you ain't runnin' s--t." There's no word yet on when the full video will debut, but if the teasers are any indication, fans are going to see a new side of the star.
PHOTOS: Gaga's craziest hairstyles
"The real CAKE isn't HAVING what you want, it's DOING what you want," Gaga tweeted Nov. 15.

It flashes and changes its color in response to real-world factors such as solar radiation, humidity, and pollution. Artists, inventors, and other innovative thinkers work within the Lab@Leo, where they help museum guests make creative projects out of different materials. Some of the museum's other exhibits include I.D.: What Makes You, You?, which explores our genetic origins, and Render, where visitors can create their own short animated films.209 E 500 SSalt Lake City, UT US

Ghost server name
As recently reported elsewhere, I have moved our Ghost Console and configuration server to a new machine, running Windows 2003. I've successfully moved the database using Nigel's scripts and a few workarounds. One thing I have noticed though is that the clients all report the old server name as their manager, even though they're correctly connecting to the new one. I realise that importing the database means I'm using the old server's certificates etc., but is there somewhere I can change the server name so that it's reported correctly at the client end? Not of high importance, just a bit of house keeping.

The server name that the clients report is embedded in the PUBKEY.CRT file when the server is first installed, and although that file format is extensible I haven't yet been able to find the time to fully separate the displayed name (which we want to be the current one) from the design reason I actually embedded the name in there (which was for the benefit of having a stable identifier that the clients could look up and the server could register in WINS, for customers with networks that don't support multicast).
There is a process by which I think you could edit this if you really, really wanted to. In 1533 and later, there are a couple new switches in the server executable:
c:\Program Files\Symantec\Ghost> ngserver -ioprint pubkey.crt
This should read in the binary format of the pubkey.crt file, and produce pubkey.crt.txt which is the same data in printable form. The original machine name for the server install is embedded there.
c:\Program Files\Symantec\Ghost> ngserver -ioread pubkey.crt
This should do the converse operation, reading the pubkey.crt.txt file and writing out a new pubkey.crt file. Of course, it's a good idea to save the original file if you do this
Now, most of the content of the certificate file is binary cryptographic goop, but you should be able to edit the name as a quoted string in the "Host" field:
Modulus = #[0x1B 0xBB ...goop... 0x63 0x9B],
Generator = #[0x14 0xEA ...goop... 0xD7 0xA2],
Public = #[0x0E 0xC7 ...goop... 0xAD 0xB0],
Host = "dev-nbree5",
Certificate = (#[0x18 0x48 ...goop... 0x40 0x58] . #[0x09 0xA7 ...more goop... 0xBD 0x8B])
Doing this and dropping the resulting .CRT file into your images using Explorer and/or copying the new certificate file out through tasks should change this.
Now, what I want to do is add lots more fields to this data structure in future (although whether I actually do get to do that depends on my workload, since my dance card is pretty full) so that the clients can find the server more ways and so that there's an extended description field that gets displayed instead of that internal NetBIOS name field.
I noticed there is also a privkey.crt file that might contain the old server name if you have moved your database to another server. I don't know if this is necessary to change as well but wanted to point out that the same coommands for printing and reading the crt text file to update the certificate file work on this as well. This may ormay not be neccessary for this fix but I imagine it would be good to update this file with the new server name as well.

I love Dr. Tamres. Our nickname for him used to be "Dr. Doogie" because he looks so youthful but don't be fooled. He's knowledgeable and LISTENS! Office staff is ok. I can't say too much about other docs (although I like the NPs in the office).

Dr. Tamres is the best doctor to whom I've ever been! He cares, is very knowledgable, and takes every concern seriously. Another plus is he is conscious about health and I trust his balance between what is necessary or not. I'm a tough critic with drs. and I recommend him highly. If only most doctors were like him!

Dr. Tamres is the best! He really cares. And he really listens. Best doctor I ever had.

Dr Tamres is thoroughly professional, always responds to questions, promptly submits prescriptions, calls when test restults are available, and has been a beneficial find for me. He gets top marks. I agree with some of the comments about the staff [based on four years of patienthood at Morristown]. Staff can be stiff, concerned with their personal items and openly discussing them during business hours, and occasionally providing poor phone coverage. The office administator should evaluate this performance and correct deficiencies. Occasionally the time in the examination room is over 15 minutes, which is excessive. I'd credit the physician with spending more time aiding another patient or debit the staff for not getting all patient material ready and organized.

Dr Tamres is an excellent doctor. I have seen him over the past 4 years, as does my wife who is an RN (she swears by him). He is thorough and willing to answer any questions I have ever had. I never feel rushed even when the office is full of patients. I highly recommend Dr Tamres.

I think it doesn't mean we can't lith, just that many papers now don't show true infectious development.

IVF Turns Families Topsy-Turvy
Troubling Consequences of Artificial Reproduction
By Father John Flynn, L.C.
ROME, JULY 25, 2007 (Zenit) - As demand for in vitro fertilization continues to rise, so too are concerns over the clinics and consequences for families. A leading British expert recently had harsh words for the industry, whose methods have long been criticized by the Church.
Robert Winston, professor of fertility studies at Imperial College London, said clinics had been corrupted by money and that doctors were exploiting women desperate to get pregnant, reported the Guardian on May 31. "It's very easy to exploit people by the fact that they're desperate and you've got the technology, which they want, which may not work," he said.
When it comes to the impact on family life, one of the changes introduced is the trend toward older mothers, reported the London-based Times newspaper June 6. The proportion of in vitro fertilization (IVF) patients aged between 40 and 45 has risen from 10% in the 1990s to 15% in 2006, the article noted. Last year a total of 6,174 women in this age group had fertility treatment, compared with just 596 in 1991.
The average age of all fertility patients has also increased by a full year since 1996, from 33.8 to 34.8. The information comes from data published by the Human Fertilization and Embryology Authority.
The Times commented that the success rate of treatments at an older age is much lower. For women aged between 40 and 42, the live birthrate for a first treatment cycle is 9%. Once they are 44 or above it is 1%.
Moreover, at 40, the risk of miscarriage is twice what it is at 20, and there is an increased likelihood of ectopic pregnancy, premature birth, stillbirth, neonatal death and birth defects.
Twins at 60
Shortly before the publication of this data, news came from the United States of a 60-year-old woman who gave birth to twin boys, reported the Associated Press, May 23. Frieda Birnbaum gave birth to the boys at Hackensack University Medical Center, New Jersey.
Another case that received attention was that of Spanish mother Carmela Bousada, who gave birth at 67 to twins, reported the Times on Jan. 29. She underwent IVF treatment at the Pacific Fertility Center in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, the Canadian newspaper the Ottawa Citizen reported April 18 the case of Melanie Boivin, who donated some of her ova to her daughter, Flavie.
The daughter, aged 7, is sterile due to a genetic condition. The article commented that if Flavie eventually decides to use the ova and becomes pregnant, she will be give birth to her genetic sister and Melanie Boivin will simultaneously become mother and grandmother.
The mother's actions were criticized by ethicist Margaret Somerville, the paper reported. "We have to think about what we are doing when we are running around nature," she said, noting that such a procedure completely overturns the normal transition of life.
Another practice that raises ethical doubts is the increasing use of surrogate mothers from developing nations to bear children for families from richer nations. One of the countries where this is taking place is India, explained an article published by Reuters on Feb. 4.
A surrogate mother in the United States would cost a couple anything up to $50,000, Gautam Allahbadia, a fertility specialist, told Reuters. In India, however, it can be done for $10,000-$12,000. The Indian clinics usually charge $2,000-$3,000 for the procedure while the surrogate mother is paid $3,000-$6,000.
The article observed that there are no official figures, but it is possible that 100-150 surrogate babies are born each year in India.
Clinics are also starting to offer treatments aimed at the homosexual community. The Los Angeles-based The Fertility Institutes has launched a program for homosexual men who want to become parents, Reuters reported March 14.
According to clinic director Jeffrey Steinberg they have already treated about 70 gay male couples while preparing the new service. He also noted that around three-quarters of the homosexual couples pay extra to choose the sex of their baby.
The convoluted parental structures created by IVF techniques also give rise to complex legal problems. A surrogate mother who has no genetic connection to the baby she is carrying does not have to be listed as the mother on a birth certificate, ruled the Maryland Court of Appeals, according to a report by the Associated Press on May 16.
The case involved twins born in 2001. The woman carried the twins for a father who used an egg donor, and the surrogate mother had no genetic relationship to the twins.
Another case, still to be decided, involves the fate of a couple's frozen embryos. Augusta and Randy Roman decided to go ahead with treatment ...
