COMSOL's Italian Office Expands to Meet Growing Demand
In response to the continued success of COMSOL Multiphysics in Italy, the Brescia office expands to provide comprehensive simulation resources for the Italian engineering market
BRESCIA (December 5, 2013) – In March of 2006, COMSOL opened its first Italian office in the city of Brescia, demonstrating the company's commitment to serving the high-tech engineering market in Italy. Today, in response to a significant increase in demand for the company's flagship product, COMSOL Multiphysics, COMSOL has announced that the Italian office is expanding. New and larger premises allow hiring top tech talent to provide software sales, excellent customer support, comprehensive training sessions, application-specific seminars, and customer visits.
The decision to expand is driven by the company's dedication to providing outstanding sales and support to Italian research centers, industries, and universities. "One of the key successes of COMSOL Srl is the focus on making sure our customers get the most out of the software, which is especially evident in easy access to highly qualified support," says Gian Luigi Zanotelli, Managing Director of COMSOL Srl. "We have established close relationships with our customers much thanks to always being available with responsive and friendly sales staff as well as knowledgeable support engineers. I'm sure that this new office will help us to further strengthen this trusted relationship."
The new Brescia office reflects a broader presence of the software on the Italian market as a whole, and the continued development of the software's core functionalities makes it an invaluable tool for the simulation projects of engineers working in the automotive, MEMS, biomedical, and mechanical industries. "As an experienced COMSOL user, I think that this expansion of the company resembles the growth of its great software," says Dr. Ciro Del Vecchio of the Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory at the National Institute for Astrophysics. "I'm sure that it will help growing the user community and bring additional simulation experts to the Italian branch."

The following article appeared in the April 2000 edition of FATE Magazine.
It's the ultimate in recycling. In Renaissance Europe, long before the concept of organ donation could have been envisioned, cadavers were given a new life as architectural ornaments, and skeletons were put to use as building materials. The monk who started this fad must have been the Martha Stewart of his day. Why continue piling up bones in an ossuary when you could put them to practical use — or better yet, turn them into a thing of beauty? Thus began the oddest interior-decorating style in history: rooms made entirely of human bones. Soon Chapels of Bones were built in monasteries and churches throughout Europe, and the bizarre practice remained in vogue for an astounding four centuries.
Evora's Chapel
One of the largest Chapels of Bones is in the Portuguese city of Evora, at the Church of St. Francis. Built by Franciscan monks between 1460 and 1510, the chapel is constructed of the bones of some 5,000 people. Tourists to the site find the macabre mood is set immediately with the inscription above the entrance that carries a ghoulish message to visitors: "We bones that are here are waiting for yours." Inside the dimly lit chapel, it takes a moment to realize that the interior walls and the pillars supporting the arched ceiling are composed entirely of neatly stacked leg bones, arm bones, and skulls. Once the shock of this realization subsides, visitors begin to appreciate the almost comical sight of hundreds of skulls lined up, jaw-to-cranium, to make borders around the sections of vaulted ceiling.
Whimsey and Weirdness
The artwork on the ceiling continues the combination of weirdness and whimsy: curly-haired cherubs hover above painted skulls-and-crossbones, and scythes are interspersed with elegant flowers. A statue of Jesus and an ornate, gilded altar are overshadowed by the chapel's most gruesome decoration: two desiccated corpses hanging on a side wall. The bodies of a man and a small child are now several hundred years old, but there are still skin and shreds of clothing clinging to their pathetic frames. According to a tour guide, the man was a wife abuser, and his little son was just as disrespectful to his mother. The man finally beat his wife to death, but before she succumbed, she put a curse on her husband and child. She declared that they would soon follow her in death, but, since they were so evil, even Hell would not accept them. As she predicted, the pair soon died. When they were to be buried, the ground mysteriously turned hard as a rock, and their graves could not be dug. So, the monks took their bodies and put them on permanent display in the chapel, as a warning to other wife abusers and bad children. Whether true or not, the legend shows the Franciscan monks to have been feminists before their time. In recognition of this, local women engaged to be married cut off their hair and place the braids at the chapel entrance, making a symbolic sacrifice of their girlhood in supplication for a happy marriage. This custom continues today, with several fresh braids on display.
Other enduring legends of the Evora Chapel of Bones have evolved over the identity of the 5,000 skeletons. One story says they were victims of the Black Plague; another says they were executed by the Inquisition; while yet another maintains that they were soldiers who died in battle. The truth, of course, is far less romantic: They were denizens of local cemeteries facing eviction. Evora went through a building boom in the late 1400s. Noblemen from Lisbon, less than 100 miles away, found that the area was good for hunting. They invited their friends to vacation at their hunting lodges, and before long all the glitterati from the capital were buying up huge tracts of land, on which they built vast country estates. The local monks worried about the rampant construction encroaching on the area's ancient burying grounds. They dug up the remains as a protective measure, and decided they would not only keep the bones safe within their church, but use them to glorify God as well. And so the chapel was built, as a place of meditation and prayer for the Franciscans.
Cheerful Chapel
More than 300 years later, the same situation occurred in another Portuguese city. In 1816, when construction threatened a monastery cemetery in the seaside resort of Faro, the monks there dug up their brothers' bones and built a chapel out of them in the garden behind the Carmo Church. With only 1,250 skeletons to work with, the Faro chapel is much smaller than Evora's Chapel of Bones. But what it lacks in size, it makes up for in integrity, for every inch of the Carmo chapel — even the altar and the barrel-vaulted ceiling — is made entirely of bones and skulls. The floor is composed of flat gravestones covering still more bodies. Yet the small chapel is brighter, more cheerful, cuter somehow than Evora's — and thankfully, no murderer is displayed on its walls.

The stubborn drought dominating the nation's midsection is refusing to ease, cloaking the nation's top corn and soybean producing states with yet another triple-digit heat wave with no sign of moisture in sight.
As an added headache, climate indicators for El Niño -- the light at the end of this tunnel of drought -- have eased over the past few weeks. El Niño is more likely to push drought conditions to the West, away from the Corn Belt, allowing weak storm fronts into the Midwest grain-growing region.
While meteorologists still expect the weather pattern to develop, they don't anticipate it to form until later this year.
Until cooler weather or a wetter pattern emerges, the nation will continue to broil.
In the latest Drought Monitor, Indiana, Arkansas and Kansas are among the many states shaded in red and maroon, indicating the most severe levels of drought measured. As a region, more than half of the Midwest is now in severe to exceptional drought.
"Another week of hot and dry weather continued the deterioration of crop conditions in America's breadbasket," Richard Heim of the National Climatic Data Center wrote in this week's Drought Monitor.
Current crop conditions, reported on Monday in the USDA's weekly Crop Progress Report, show just how much producers are struggling against the destructive and frustrating weather pattern that has now made the history books as the worst drought since 1956.
Currently 1,207 counties across 29 states have been declared disaster areas, including the entire state of Missouri. This week, the USDA added 39 counties to the list because of the drought and excessive heat.
The graphic at right looks at the percentage of corn rated in poor to very condition, as noted in the Crop Progress Report. Click on the image for an animated look at the conditions, which have quickly deteriorated in just nine weeks.
Looking back at the past few weeks of the report, 6 percent of Kentucky's corn was rated in poor to very poor condition near the end of May, but by mid-July conditions have rapidly declined to 77 percent.
Missouri and Indiana also aren't far behind.
Nationally, corn conditions have dropped by 35 percentage points during that period:
Corn in poor to very poor condition
May 21, 2012
May 29, 2012
June 4, 2012
June 11, 2012
June 18, 2012
June 25, 2012
July 2, 2012
July 9, 2012
July 16, 2012
Producers shouldn't expect the heat to reside anytime soon. On Thursday the Commodity Weather Group (CWG) predicted the heat would last longer next week than had earlier been forecast.
"The most concern is in west central Indiana, much of Illinois, far northern Missouri, most of Iowa, southwest Minnesota, southern South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas," CWG meteorologist Joel Widenor told Reuters.
Despite the impact of the weather pattern, U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said Wednesday that the worsening Midwest drought will results in sharply higher crop prices. Even so, Vilsack doesn't expect the drought to be as severe as the 1988 weather disaster, which cost U.S. agriculture $78 billion.
In its weekly U.S. Seasonal Drought Outlook forecast, NOAA forecasts no improvement and even further developing of drought conditions across the Midwest, with improvements noted in Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Nevada and southern California. In the breadbasket of the country, however, the conditions may persist through the end of October.
The USDA has already reduced its estimated yields for both corn and soybeans in a season that began as a potentially record corn crop as farmers planted the biggest area since 1937. A Reuters poll of 13 analysts have pegged the average estimated corn yield of 137.2 bushels per acre, down 6 percent from the USDA's forecast of 146 bushels. The USDA dropped its yield estimate by an unprecedented 20 bushels per acre in its report on July 11.
Corn production was pegged at 12.077 billion bushels, the smallest in 5 years, down 6.9 percent from USDA's outlook. "We're losing more yield with the additional stress now in the northern areas which up until now had been pretty good," Shawn McCambridge, analyst for Jefferies Bache told Reuters.
Drought conditions pushed the September corn contract to an all-time high of $8 per bushel during the overnight session, Doane Agricultural Services reported on Thursday afternoon. Last week analysts mentioned the possibly of $10 per bushel corn at a panel discussion at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). One analyst, AgResource Company President Dan Basse, noted that he had never seen crop losses this large occur in such a short amount of time. Read more here.

HOUSTON - When Houston police first got a call about a man asleep in his car in north Houston on Wednesday, they didn't know that it would eventually lead to a high-speed chase that ended with that man crashing his car into an apartment building staircase.
Police said a passerby noticed a man asleep in his car on East Tidwell near the North Freeway just after 1 a.m.
When officers arrived, they said they found Dominique Pennell, 24, behind the wheel. Police said they when they awakened Pennell, he sped off and led officers on a chase down Tidwell and into the Aspen Apartments near Sun Forest.
Police said once in the complex, Pennell jumped out of the moving car and ran off. The car continued into a courtyard, side-swiped a first floor apartment and slammed into a staircase.
"I heard something, but I thought I was dreaming at first," said resident Brian Martinez.
Another resident, Ana Rodriguez, said she heard the commotion but didn't open her front door.
"I was too scared," said Rodriguez.
Police were able to chase down Pennell and arrest him. Police said when they searched Pennell's car, they found a hockey mask and what are suspected of being stolen athletic shoes and other athletic gear.
Pennell has been charged with evading arrest and criminal mischief. Detectives are still working to determine the origin of the items found in Pennell's car.

IT LOOKS like we could be set for nice weather for days to come.
Speaking earlier today Paul Michaelwaite from Pershore forecasters Netweather said the outlook for the weekend was largely positive.
"There is some risk of showers around lunch time but with any luck we could avoid them," he said.
"There should be sunny spells during the day with temperatures around 22 or 23 degrees – about where it was on Friday.
"Sunday is possibly going to be a bit cloudy but hopefully there will be some breaks in the cloud.
"There shouldn't be any showers and temperatures will be in the high teens – around 18 degrees."
He added the good weather looked set to continue in the week ahead.
"It'll stay mostly dry with temperatures generally around the high teens," he said.
"Later in the week it might warm up but it might start a little bit cooler."

Kate Moss's Over-The-Top Wedding Reception!
The British supermodel has planned three, yes, three days of food, alcohol and more for her guests.
-Evette Brown
Supermodel Kate Moss is not a princess and her rocker fiancé, Jamie Hince, definitely isn't a prince. But, with a guest list that rivals the Oscars and an $800,000 reception; their nuptials are fit for royalty.
So, what exactly does the princess and her frog–umm, fiancée– have planned for today?
According to Styleite, the happy couple spared little expense for their special day. Including a custom-designed wedding gown by John Galliano. I mean, what wedding isn't complete without a three day reception with A-list guests including Naomi Campbell and Jude Law?
Read 12 Dresses Perfect for a Summer Wedding Guest
The circus reception is being held (as we speak) on Kate's estate in Great Britain. So, it's just common to build an additional home for guests, right? Of course Kate will be the perfect hostess, but in case she spends more time in the honeymoon suite than the guest house, staff from the Ritz-Carlton will be present to fluff pillows and fill champagne flutes.
All of the guests will be buzzed with excitement and alcohol since Kate had truckloads (literally) delivered to her mansion. Oh, and after destroying their livers, the guests can fill-up their stomachs with barbecue, vegetarian meals, or Keith Richards' famous shepherd pie. Yep, that's right. Along with hiring two chefs, Kate got her hands on recipes from Steve Tyler and others. Let's hope guests will survive the flood of liquor combined with Tyler's Thai curry.
On the agenda for entertainment? Snoop Dogg will be performing his greatest hits and Kate will use her vocals to serenade the guests (or bust their eardrums) with karaoke. Should we call it Kate-A-Palooza instead of a wedding reception?
It is rumored that the guests will get Oscar-worthy wedding favors goody bags, but after being on the exclusive list for the "biggest party of the year," the guests will be so drunk, full, and entertained that they'll definitely be thanking Kate. If they can remember after three days of non-stop partying.
Wonder if Kim Kardashian can top this?

Pete Barrett / The Journal News
The Mets' (35-30) bullpen allowed multiple runs, and Jason Bay injured himself. It was an ordinary night in Queens.
Cincinnati Reds (36-27) center fielder Jay Bruce lifted a high fly ball back towards the left field foul pole in the second inning. Bay chased the ball back, and awkwardly slid head first into the outfield wall.
Bruce's hit landed for an inside the park home run. Bay left the game with possible concussion.
Cincinnati scored another run in the second, and two more in the third en route to a 7-3 win.
Mets' starter Dillon Gee (4-5) calmed after early struggles, and gave the Mets six innings, retiring the final ten batters he faced.
The Mets' offense, which exploded for 29 runs in a three game series in Tampa, was held scoreless through five innings, before Kirk Nieuwenhuis hit a solo shot in the 6th–his third home run in two games.
All three Mets' runs were tagged to Reds starter Bronson Arroyo (3-4), who was pulled after allowing a Scott Hairston two run blast in the 7th.
The Reds used three of their primary relievers to ensure the win. The team leader in appearances Jose Arredondo, setup man Sean Marshall, and closer Aroldis Chapman each threw an inning without allowing a hit.
However MLB's worst bullpen gave up three runs in three innings. Jeremy Hefner allowed two in one inning, and Elvin Ramirez allowed one in two innings. The tandem now combines for four losses.
The Mets continue their three game series against the Reds on Saturday night at Citi Field. Homer Bailey (4-4) faces Jon Niese (4-2), first pitch at 7:15.
Poem by Howard Megdal
Alas, poor Bay, who
Had only started hitting
Crashes once again

"I mean, 'Algerian special forces' is something of a contradiction in terms," Steyn said. "I think when these things happen somewhere on the other side of the world, you hope that the highly trained elite forces will come to the rescue. And that belongs to a very select group of nations. I mean, if you remember that Russian theater siege for example, where the Russians went in and killed a bunch of people — I mean, even the Russians aren't any good at that. There's maybe half-a-dozen nations in the world capable of rescuing those guys without leaving a lot of blood on the floor."
"It does call into question — I mean I would have thought that the first thing that would happen is that the nationals, the government of the nationals being held hostage would have conferred as to who had people, who could get there and screw Algeria's sovereignty," he continued. "We got into a lot of trouble in Libya from over-respecting the sovereignty of nations that cannot enforce their own sovereignty. And that's what we should have done in Algeria, too. We should take as saying we're not going to fuss about visas from the Algerians."

Talks to amend the Airbus A400M development and production contract will drag on into the autumn as the moratorium on funding imposed by the European partner nations continues. The troubled military airlifter is making its UK debut here at the Farnborough show against a backdrop of renewed speculation that the UK commitment to purchase could yet fall victim to the UK Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR), which is part of the new British government's determination to drive down public spending by an average of 25 percent.
"It's a battle…not an easy negotiation…[the nations] aren't keen to fund it," EADS chief executive officer Louis Gallois admitted last Saturday in response to a question from AIN. But the outline agreement to rescue the program that was signed last March is still valid, he added. The German defense minister last week confirmed that his country was negotiating to reduce its order of A400Ms by seven, to 51, but according to Gallois, "None of the nations wants out of the project."
However, a senior Royal Air Force (RAF) commander who is closely involved with the SDSR told AIN last week that the service "ultimately planned to operate only two types of airlifter in the future." By so doing, the service would reap substantial savings in training and support costs, he added. This mirrors the evolving policy with respect to the RAF's fast jets and helicopters, with only two types in each category to be retained. The RAF currently operates 25 Lockheed Martin C-130Js delivered since 1998 and six C-17s delivered since 2001, with a seventh C-17 on order. The UK ordered 25 A400Ms to replace the remaining 15 RAF 1960s-vintage C-130Ks.
Indicators at this point are that the most likely outcome of the SDSR will be an order for 22 A400Ms and an early retirement of the C-130J fleet. But like other UK government departments, last Friday the Ministry of Defence delivered to the Treasury multiple options for spending cuts. It is quite possible that one of these options is to cancel the A400M purchase and buy a few more C-17s instead.
"The RAF always wanted a mixed fleet of C-130Js and C-17s. It never wanted the A400M," said one former RAF officer with intimate experience of previous negotiations. Boeing has been saying recently that two C-17s offer the same capability as four A400Ms, and has already provided a price to the MoD for an eighth C-17.
ADS, the UK aerospace, defence and security trade association, last Friday issued a strong plea for the A400M order to be retained. "A narrow, short-term saving in the defense budget would cost the country countless times more in lost business across both civil and military aerospace," it said. The wings for the A400M are built by Airbus at Filton. They are made almost entirely from carbon fiber reinforced plastic–a first for Airbus (and for any military airlifter). ADS is worried that this work could be re-allocated to France, Germany or Spain, if the UK pulls out of the A400M. "The A400M project provides the 'bridge' between work on the current generation of civil aircraft and the next," the ADS statement continued.
In preparation for its debut, chief test pilot Ed Strongman took the controls of the second A400M as it flew over Farnborough last Friday to validate its flying display. It then landed at its potential future UK home, RAF Brize Norton, for a few hours before repositioning to RAF Fairford to make its UK debut at last weekend's Royal International Air Tattoo. It will fly here daily until Thursday, when it will return to Seville.
Nine days ago, three A400Ms were in the air at the same time, including the first flight of the third aircraft–MSN3–from Seville. On that day, the combined test fleet passed the milestone of 100 test flights and 400 flight hours. MSN3 is the third of an eventual five aircraft that will conduct the 3,700-hour flight-test program leading to first delivery. It is the first aircraft to carry a medium flight-test instrumentation load, rather than the heavy fit of the first two, and will be dedicated primarily to auto-flight development, aircraft systems development and route-proving.

Walk Across the Golden Gate Bridge
Walk or bike across one of the most beautiful bridges in the world with great views of San Francisco in the distance The Golden Gate Bridge is thought by many to be one of the most beautiful bridges in the world, and the opportunity to walk or bike across at least part of it should not be missed. The bridge spans 1.7 miles, but most people only walk to the first tower and back again. If you are feeling more adventurous, walk across the bridge and continue under the bridge up to Hendrik Point for a great view of the bridge with the San Francisco skyline in the background. The Golden Gate Bridge was open to the public on May 28, 1937. It spans 1.7 miles across the gap between San Francisco and Marin and is 90 feet wide. It's average height above the water is 220 feet, with the two towers rising up to 746 feet above sea level; more than 80,000 miles of wire were used in the bridge. The bridge cost $35 million to construct and was the longest suspension bridge in the world, holding the title almost 30 years until 1964 when it was overcome by the Verrazano Narrows Bridge in New York. Nineteen men fell off the bridge while it was being built, but there was a safety net in place to catch them. They were later known as the "Half Way to Hell Club" because of their near-death experiences. On its 50th anniversary the bridge was closed to cars and opened to pedestrians who were packed like sardines trying to walk around. The weight of the dense crowd was significantly more than the bridge is used to with cars (the cars are much more spaced out), and the curved bridge became temporarily flat until the weight was lifted.

If one could wave a magic wand and reduce the number of tobacco smokers by more than 10 percent, the percentage of adult alcoholics by 12 percent, the percentage of those suffering from chronic depression by more than half, most people would do so.
Although no magic wand exists, finally society is getting a grip on understanding the core causes of adult dysfunction.
From 1995 to 1997, the HMO, Kaiser Permanente, surveyed 17,000 of its members to determine the number of "adverse childhood experiences" (ACEs) that they had growing up. Then, they looked at the correlation between the number of these experiences and the health issues that occurred throughout their adult lives. The link was direct and significant.
What are ACEs? The HMO study categorized them as verbal, physical and sexual abuse, the separation or divorce of one's parents, domestic violence in the home, and having family members who suffered from mental illness, were drug abusers or alcoholics or were incarcerated.
In 2011, the state of Minnesota completed its first ACE survey of 13,520 residents. The results were similar. Fifty-five percent of adult Minnesotans experienced one or more ACE in their childhood. Of those, 60 percent experienced two or more and 15 percent experienced five or more.
The result of growing up in such an environment is both unsurprising and concerning. The more ACEs a person has, the more likely they are to smoke tobacco, be alcoholic, or suffer from anxiety, depression or asthma. The Centers for Disease Control says on its website: "The ACE findings suggest that certain experiences are major risk factors for the leading causes of illness and death as well as poor quality of life in the United States."
The chances of becoming an alcoholic if one grew up with zero ACEs is 2.8 percent, but with four or five ACEs, the chances grow to 15 percent.
Only about 0.2 percent of children with zero ACEs will attempt suicide. With four ACEs, the chances grow to 11 percent, five ACEs 16 percent, six ACEs 29 percent and seven or more, a whopping 51 percent.
People with more ACEs are more likely to be unable to work, unable to own a home and worry more about paying the rent or buying nutritious food.
Bottom line: With five or more ACEs, the chances of being in fair or poor health are doubled.
The research is showing that being exposed to ACEs at a very young age actually changes brain chemistry. Children develop ways to cope with the toxic stress in their lives that often lead to poor health, a poorer quality of life and a shortened life span.
The state has begun educating its social service agencies as well as law enforcement and the judiciary about the findings.
Now comes the hard part: implementing programs that are effective in improving resiliency among ACE victims so that they can become happy, healthy adults.
All counties offer some mental health services now, but, with a majority of the population experiencing at least one ACE, it's safe to say that not everyone who needs help is getting it.
Only those who act out in truly disruptive, anti-social ways get attention. For many children the trauma may occur even before they reach school age. Initially their only symptom may be poor academic performance, or drinking alcohol, having sex or using illegal drugs in their early teens or before. The trauma may go unaddressed for years. The research shows, the longer trauma goes untreated, the harder it is for people to change their responses to stressful situations and to live happy, healthy, productive lives.
One of the first agencies to directly address the ACE findings head-on is the St. Cloud Police Department. In March, Paige McConkey, a mental health practitioner, was embedded in the department. His job is to be a first responder to trauma victims so that children and families get the help they need. In some instances, such as police being called repeatedly to a violent home, it is relatively easy to see that children may need help. In others, such as a death in the family or divorce, it is sometimes difficult to uncover how deeply the child has been affected.
Since the beginning, McConkey has had 40 referrals from police officers, worked with 50 children, and referred 15 of them for trauma-informed care.
While the St. Cloud experience is only anecdotal, more needs to be done to secure funding for such efforts. Now that we know the childhood experiences that cause adult dysfunction, the excuses for not expanding outreach efforts to trauma victims are weakening.
By improving the resiliency of the majority of citizens who have ACEs, we can reduce the rates of alcoholism, obesity, depression, fetal death, illicit drug use, ischemic heart disease, liver disease, lung cancer, migraines, sexually transmitted diseases, smoking, suicide attempts, and unintended and adolescent pregnancies.
This has the potential to provide not only huge savings in health care and social service costs, but also to lessen the waste of so much human capital that was traumatized at an early age through no fault of its own.
For anybody interested in learning more about what works for children and families exposed to traumatic events (i.e. effective programs, treatments, grant opportunities, etc). the University of Minnesota's Ambit Network, www.ambitnetwork.org, is a good resource.

Visiting Big PawPaw
Lineville, Alabama
Russell Hodnett is my great grandfather on my father's side. Visits to his home were memoriable for me. He and Big MawMaw lived in a little house which they rented until she died. His brother Red lived in a small trailer next to the house until his death. They still had an outhouse and used the well for water. I can't remember if running water was ever added to the house. Big MawMaw would put a small pot for me next to my bed in case I might have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. She always covered me with handmade quilts she made. With the weight of the quilts, I don't believe getting up would have been an option without help. Big PawPaw was a quiet man for the most part, but he did like to tell "tall tales" to get a chuckle out of everyone. He was tall and skinny, always wearing overalls with a button up shirt underneath. His hair was white and I have never seen any earlier pictures of him. On one visit with him and Big MawMaw, we celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. All the children and grandchildren and great grandchildren were there. When Big MawMaw died, Big PawPaw had to move into a small apartment in Lineville where he lived the last 7 years alone for the first time since he was a child.
I still visit the old house where my greatgrandparents lived. It has not changed one bit. The large oak trees out front, still hanging full with mistletoe, cast a shadow across the porch where wooden rocking chairs once were. And from the porch, you can still look out across the grassy field to the little country church they would walk to before their health declined. And it is there at the church cemetery where both are now resting quietly with many other family members.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/1/2014 (1310 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Sure, he's a little bit country and a little bit rock 'n' roll, but above all, Keith Urban is a pop star.
New Zealand-born Urban, 46, has always had plenty of crossover appeal -- it's hard to imagine a cowboy hat even touching that perfectly highlighted head of his -- but he's also just plain appealing. He has a cavalcade of catchy hits, 15 of them No. 1s. He's a judge on American Idol. He's married to Nicole Kidman. He has a sexy accent and nice teeth. He's almost frustratingly likable.
Oh yeah, and as he proved at Monday night's Winnipeg stop on his Light the Fuse tour, he's also a virtuosic musician. While the house lights were still up, Urban quietly took the stage, dressed in a clavicle-exposing black V-neck T-shirt and jeans, to noodle on the banjo, while his bandmates joined him one by one for a loose jam. It's totally a thing he does at every show, but it was a nice amuse bouche before the ensuing pig-out on sugary country pop hits.
And the hits came fast and furious. Backed by five towering screens -- which seemed to linger on close-ups of his face -- Urban wasted no time, launching into Long Hot Summer and Put You In a Song, which boasted scorching guitar solos rivalling the most muscular of arena rock acts. Sweet Thing and I Told You So followed, another explosive one-two punch that had the entire room singing along. Urban knows how to shred, but he also knows how to work a room.
Even in its slower moments, the show retained its arena-rock bombast. Swathed in red light, Urban showed off his mighty lungs on the power ballad Stupid Boy, off his 2006 album Love, Pain and the Whole Crazy Thing. It, too, was fleshed out by long, languid solos that stretched on into oblivion.
There were a lot of women in the crowd packing proclamations of love scribbled on DayGlo-coloured posters. After canvassing the room, Urban pulled one lucky lady onstage -- hers read "Keith I Hear You Like Tall Girls" -- had a recliner brought out for her and serenaded her with an intimate solo acoustic performance Only You Can Love Me This Way. It's pure schtick, sure, but she'll remember that moment forever.
Urban reunited with his backing band for the bouncy Even The Stars Fall 4 You off 2013's Fuse, before being joined by opening act Little Big Town on stage for an encore-worthy performance of You Gonna Fly. Cop Car, a fairly forgettable Fuse ballad, followed. His most country tune, Without You, was backed by a black and white montage of footage of him and his wife frolicking on a beach juxtaposed with shots of a highway (get it?). It was super cheesy, but it was sweet. (See? The man is impossible not to like.)
Hour two contained yet more high-energy guitar heroics; a spot-on cover of The Who's Won't Get Fooled Again absolutely rocked. The band moved to a small satellite stage on the other side of the bowl for a charging rendition of Once in a Lifetime and the anthemic Better Life. As he made his way back to the mainstage, Urban handed out high fives to every outstretched hand he could reach. He's nice like that.
But wait, there was more. Little Big Town's Karen Fairchild stood in for Miranda Lambert on We Were Us, and a giant disco ball showered the crowd with reflected light for Little Bit of Everything. The main set closed with Somebody Like You -- Urban's mega hit -- to a roar of approval and an explosion of confetti cannons.
You have to admire his stamina. After delivering a two-hour show (which was a little long and could have benefitted from some editing), Urban decided he hadn't had enough of a workout and returned to the stage for a four-song encore. That included a trio of heartstring-tugging solo piano performances -- But for the Grace of God, Raining on Sunday and Tonight I Want to Cry -- during which a galaxy of cellphones appeared in the stands.
Urban knew better than to close the show on a downer. A tease of Bruno Mars' Locked Out of Heaven gave way to You Look Good in My Shirt. For that one, he performed somewhere in the 100-level, surrounded by a throng of screaming women.
You have to love an opener that works the crowd with the sureness of a headliner. Alabama's Little Big Town turned in an engaging, high-energy set straight out of the Grand Ole Opry. While the band's signature four-part harmonies were given more room to breathe in big, room-filling country ballads such as Bring It On Home and Sober, Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet proved they also do the toe-tappin', boot-scootin' boogie thing really well, too -- from the driving stomp of set opener Little White Church to the boozy, bluesy Front Porch Thing.
The tender Can't Go Back sent more than a few people to the beer line, but the band commanded focus with the dramatic Tornado -- which probably could have been spared the cheesy theatrics. The wind machine seemed a little... on the nose. The foursome ended its hour-long set on a high with its singalong love letter to the American backcountry, Boondocks.
Brett Eldredge, a rising country star out of Paris, Ill., warmed up the stage with a half-hour set culled mostly from his studio debut, 2013's Bring You Back. While the stripped-down soulful ballad One Mississippi -- which featured Eldredge solo in the spotlight accompanied by just a piano -- was pretty, the full-band numbers felt a bit bogged down by a thundering bass-heavy mix. No matter. The crowd went wild for his high-energy, clap-along single, Don't Ya.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Florida Highway Patrol -- the agency that respond to and investigates most of the fatal accidents on Florida's roads -- is beginning to analysis accident data in hopes it will lessen the number of highway fatalities.
FHP Capt. Keith Gaston was doing graduate work at University of North Florida with another FHP officer they learned about a high-tech system that could track trends. Gaston decided this same technology could track crash data.
"Many people had thought about it. The key was, how do you do it; how do you organize it?" Gaston said.
Early every morning, the web-based program called Signal Four Analytics now housed at University of Florida updates data from accidents statewide and makes information from basic collision facts to more detailed details available to traffic investigators.
"Ten years down the road I see this type of system being used to make vehicles safer, to make us smarter in the way we drive," Gaston said.
Law enforcement officers can search up to 300 pieces of information, including time of day, location, driver's age and sex, where the vehicle was impacted.
In the three months it's been in place, the computer has compiled data from 911,622 crash reports. The project is so valuable, the FHP office in Jacksonville hired a person just to research the database.
"We knew that we needed it for a long time. (There) just wasn't the technology there to make it feasible to do it," Gaston said.
Gaston hopes this technology can reduce the number of serious accidents by using the crash information to better patrol problem spots and prevent crashes from happening.

WCUCOM Professor Named to Editorial Board
Hattiesburg, Miss., November 30, 2012 - Dr. Italo Subbarao, associate professor of medicine and associate dean of planning, assessment, and competency development at William Carey University's College of Osteopathic Medicine (WCUCOM), was recently named to the editorial board for The Journal of American Osteopathic Association (JAOA). The JAOA is the official scientific publication of the American Osteopathic Association, as well as the scholarly, peer-reviewed publication of the osteopathic medical profession.
"It is a great honor to be on this board," said Dr. Subbarao. "For many years this journal has been the scholarly authority for osteopathic medicine. I am deeply gratified by the opportunity to serve in this capacity, promoting the growth of the profession."
Dr. Subbarao graduated from Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine before completing a fellowship at John Hopkins University. His fellowship training in emergency medicine and disaster and humanitarian assistance led him to serve as the director of the Public Health Readiness Office at the American Medical Association (AMA) Center for Public Health Preparedness and Disaster Response, located in Chicago, Ill. Dr. Subbarao's work at AMA involved responding to disasters around the world, including Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Ike, a tsunami in Japan, and earthquakes in Haiti.
Dr. Subbarao, who came to the WCUCOM in 2012, is no stranger to scholarly writing. During the tenure of his career with AMA, he served as deputy editor for the AMA's publication, "Disaster Medicine and Public Health Preparedness." He has also had over 60 articles published, edited several journals and books, and continues to stay deeply involved in scholarship and research.
"I was offered the job at the WCUCOM, and the associate dean post was a great opportunity for me and my family," Dr. Subbarao said. "Since I arrived at WCU, my focus has been on providing the best quality of education for our medical students and promoting research in the field of osteopathic medicine."
"As a member of the journal's editorial board, I look forward to supporting the WCUCOM's efforts in promoting scholarly research and expanding opportunities for growth for this young school," Dr. Subbarao said.

Get Your Car's Survival Kit Ready for Winter
Answer by: Carolyn Washburn, Utah State University Extension family consumer science agent, Washington County
America is on the move. We travel short or long distances nearly every day. Many travelers are not prepared for roadside or community emergencies. In addition, with so much attention being placed on the ability to evacuate a community quickly, having an emergency car kit prepared and in the trunk would be invaluable and could even save lives.
One option is to buy ready-made kits. Many are available through online stores or at emergency supply stores. However, putting your own kit together is a way to make sure you include items that will meet your specific needs. Consider these tips for preparing an emergency car kit.
• First, check the tools in your vehicle. These should include a spare tire, jack and lug wrench, jumper cables, flares or reflectors, a flashlight and batteries, a help or distress sign, maps, a small tool set, a fire extinguisher, a tire inflator, sealant and duct tape.
• Next, include additional safety tools. These include a tow rope, shovel, tire chains and sand or cat litter for traction if you live or travel in winter conditions.
• Now you are ready to include survival items. These include high energy foods, nutrition bars, nuts, dried fruits, candies, water, emergency thermal blankets, warm clothing, a safety whistle, cell phone and charger, heavy gloves, folding utility knife, garbage bags, tissues/toilet paper and survival medications. All vehicles should also carry a first aid kit with manual.
• Other items to include are a brightly colored scarf or distress flag to tie to your car antenna and an envelope stored in the glove compartment listing family contact information.
• Be sure to keep the gas tank at least half full at all times, and carry cash in small bills (ones, fives and change) in a secured compartment. Before leaving home, always let someone know where you are going and when you will return.
• When faced with an emergency situation, do your best to take care of yourself and others. Assess your surroundings and make sure your car is still safe to serve as a shelter. Most of the time, it's best to stay with your vehicle. Rescuers will have an easier time spotting a large piece of metal than a person on foot.
Whether making a quick trip to the grocery store or taking a trip across the country, it is important to expect the unexpected. Be prepared and always have information, tools and emergency supplies in your vehicle. With luck, you will never have to use them; but if you do, they can be both time savers and life savers.

There's plenty of eagerness, and a bit of trepidation, in Philly as the Eagles get back on the field. Their fans are thrilled by the quick start behind rookie quarterback Carson Wentz, but also wonder if it is for real.
Beating Detroit doesn't prove a lot, but losing to the Lions, even on the road, could be a sign the first three weeks were something of a mirage in Philadelphia.
"Really in my opinion our season starts now," coach Doug Pederson says. "What we've done already is great and we're in a good position, but we need to buckle down and prepare as if this is Week 1."
Why has Detroit dropped three in a row? Try ranking second with 370 yards in penalties and third with 39 penalties in total. Plus, the Lions have only one pick and have not recovered a fumble.

Topic: A BIT OF THIS & THAT
Hi Friends! FYI: I have met a man through the WEB whose wife had CC and he started his own site about her. Susan M Costa.com is where you will see what he is doing. We have been in contact and he asked for Teddy's story to put on his site, did and its done. HI LISA, saw you on there as well! I told him about the letters I collected and he said he wrote (2 years ago) to EVERYONE (in TV land) he could think of and he did not receive 1 answer! I am still undecided as to which way to go. I also wish there was some way we could connect up with him as we are all fighting for the same cause and numbers speak louder.
Teddy is doing very well and we go for the next (ureter) stent exchange Feb 16th with the new Urologist. He is fabulous and it only took 3 minutes to set up the surgery where the old Urologist scheduler took 2 months to set up nothing. Don't you get tired of all the fighting? Well, I just felt like writing a little note today. Oh and I know you saw......CARDINAL'S WON!!!!

Conservation Registry Provides Valuable Insight for Project Planning and Tracking
Powerful new database displays wildlife and conservation projects across the nation
How does the conservation project you are working on fit into your watershed? Who's fighting invasive species, providing fish passage or trying to bring back beaver in your area? Is anyone else surveying for frogs? Find out on the Conservation Registry. And, while you're looking around, think about what project you could add to the website.
Did You Know?
Today, there are almost 13,000 projects in the Registry. The states of Arkansas, Idaho, Oregon and Washington have portals featuring their projects, although projects have appeared in a total of 47 states, as well as in Canada and Mexico. Defenders Wildlife Corps participants have worked on nine projects listed in the Registry, which can be viewed through the Defenders portal.
The Conservation Registry was developed by Defenders of Wildlife and partners to provide a simple, free web-based database and mapping system. With assistance from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, MJ Murdock Charitable Trust and many federal and state agencies, the Conservation Registry visualizes on-the-ground conservation and wildlife investments. A Google Maps platform makes it easy to use.
"The Conservation Registry is our gift to the world," says Sara Vickerman, Senior Director of Biodiversity Partnerships who works out of Defenders' Northwest office in Oregon. "As conservation opportunities become more strategic, our partners wanted a way to show where on-the-ground projects were actually taking place, so that we could maximize our investments and foster new partnerships."
13,000 projects sounds like a lot but there are so many conservation projects we haven't seen in the Registry yet. As new roads and development and climate change encroach on precious habitat, we need a way to visualize what we've already done—and what we need to do next. Technology has provided a way to make this information available.
Tracking and Mapping Wildlife Projects
The Conservation Registry enables you to:
- Find projects with ease. View projects on a Google map or search for projects with simple queries.
- Monitor conservation success. See who is working in a favorite area and track progress over time.
- Gain transparency. Discover how conservation dollars are being spent.
- Learn about funding and volunteer opportunities. Find out what projects in your area need support and assistance.
What the Conservation Registry Means for Wildlife and Habitats
With more species becoming imperiled every year, the Conservation Registry provides the information conservationists, landowners, agency professionals, planners and wildlife lovers everywhere need to make intelligent decisions.
Want to See What the Registry Can Do?
Check out just a few examples of the many projects currently listed on the Conservation Registry.
- Silverspot Butterfly Population Supplementation
Partners bring butterfly back to native Oregon habitat.
- Wheeler Ridge Wildlife Migration Corridor
Protecting habitat for California's Round Valley mule deer.
- Maximizing Turtle Nesting Success and Increasing Rehabilitation
Florida partners work on multiple sites to protect turtles.

Date: November 29 2012
David Cameron's former spin doctor Andy Coulson and ex-News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks have appeared in court to face charges linked to alleged corrupt payments to public officials.
Brooks, 44, appeared first, along with former Sun chief reporter John Kay, 69, and Ministry of Defence employee Bettina Jordan-Barber, 39.
They spoke only to confirm their names, dates of birth and addresses during the short hearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Thursday.
Brooks sat next to Kay, while Jordan-Barber sat apart from the pair in the dock.
It is alleged that Brooks and Kay conspired to pay Jordan-Barber around STG100,000 ($A153,810) for information.
The three each face one count of conspiracy to commit misconduct in a public office between January 1 2004 and January 31 this year.
That relates to allegations that Jordan-Barber, 39, was paid to provide information to the Sun newspaper.
They were all released on unconditional bail until they next appear at Southwark Crown Court on December 6.
Coulson and ex-News of the World (NOTW) royal correspondent Clive Goodman appeared afterwards.
They are charged with conspiracy to pay for information including a royal phone directory known as the "Green Book".
It contained contact details for the royal family and members of their households.
Coulson, 44, and Goodman, 55, face two counts of conspiracy to commit misconduct in a public office - one between August 31, 2002 and January 31, 2003, and the other between January 31 and June 3, 2005.
They relate to the alleged request and authorisation of payments to public officials in exchange for information, including the royal contacts book.
Coulson and Goodman were both released on unconditional bail until the same date as the other three defendants.

"The road was closed until the early hours of the morning to enable investigations into the circumstances to commence, and the scene to be cleared.
"Our thoughts are with the family of the dead man. A specially trained family liaison officer has been appointed, and will be keeping them updated on the progress of the inquiry."
The Worcestershire coroner opened an inquest into Mr Northcott's death on Wednesday.
Anyone with any information is urged to call police on 101 quoting incident number 652s/310314.

BofA Forms Global Advisory Council, Appoints Breton, Al Saad
Bank of America Corp., the second- largest U.S. bank by assets, has formed a global advisory council to instruct senior executives on strengthening the firm's client relationships.
The 13 council members will include former French finance minister and current chief executive officer of Atos Origin SA, Thierry Breton, managing director of Kuwait Investment Authority, Bader Al-Saad, and Choi Chong-Suk, chairman of Korea Investment Corp., Bank of America said in a statement today.
"Bank of America has relationships with clients who compete in every region of the globe," said CEO Brian T. Moynihan, chairman of the council. "We thank our global advisory council leaders for sharing their perspective, experience, and judgment, which will help make us a better partner for the clients."
Moynihan has spent his first three years as CEO overhauling the bank after his predecessor's takeover of Countrywide Financial Corp. and Merrill Lynch & Co., divesting more than $60 billion of assets. The bank announced an $11.7 billion deal to end disputes with Fannie Mae on bad home loans this month and joined an $8.5 billion industry accord to compensate for abusive foreclosures.

Hello everybody, i have been lurking the forums for a while now, and it looks like i need help finally
Just for the record, EVERYTHING is working fine and dandy...
Except, when i boot up my pc, and boot backtrack off my HD, i get absolutely NO type of video (screen is blank from the very start of the booting process)
The funny thing is, even without any video, when i can login like i would usually do ( user=root pass=toor) and when i type "startx" it starts KDE no problem, and everything works.
To sum it up, i want to know if any of you pro linux users can help me fix this problem.
Here is my xorg.conf, and my lilo.conf
(sry, i have to post the links like this since i cant post the full links)
hxxp:// sudik.fileave.com /xorg.conf
hxxp:// sudik.fileave.com /lilo.conf
Thank you for reading this far THX
Anyways, i first tried posting my config files, BUT they exceeded 1000 words, so its not my fault.
somebody please help me!! this is really making me go crazy
Try using paste bin for large files and then link it. I'm sure that some people have well exceeded the download limit for a lot of free sites so they can not down load.
here is the lilo.conf
boot = /dev/hdb
timeout = 10
bitmap = /boot/splash.bmp
vga = 773
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = current
initrd = /boot/splash.initrd
label = OldKernel
and here is the xorg.conf link to the paste bin!! THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! LOL
Don't know anything about your machine, but....
Have you tried something lower?
Maybe the framebuffer is to high for your vga?
Try 788 (800x600x64k) or even 785 (640x480x64k) if it's an old/small screen....
Failing that even "vga=normal" instead of using a framebuffer?
Just an idea...
I just cant figure out WHY everything, including my Nvidia drivers are working perfectly, EXCEPT the damn booting screen!! :*
I am still stuck on this one.
Here is my PC specs
Mobo= Asus M2N-E
Cpu= X2 3600+
Video card= Nvidia 7900GS
thank you once again
If you have the LG Model L204WT (which it looks like it according to your pastebin)
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Unknown"
ModelName "LG L204WT"
try this link to see if it helps
I appreciate your help, but i really dont think that is the issue.. i have my Nvidia drivers installed, and i have my screen @ the highest resolution (1680x1050)
This is driving me nutz!
Does anybody know why the booting process has no video what so ever?
And when i blindly login and type startx, my KDE loads up fine! and i even have Nvidia drivers installed and working wonderful!
If you still have no framebuffer, use the vga=normal instead, like I mentioned before - even for a temp fix so you can see what's going on when you boot!
Having "support" in your vga driver and monitor for a 1680x1050 resolution has nothing to do with the framebuffer stage!
One thought - are you running your own (re)compiled kernel or stock BT one?

U.S. Swimming Olympic Team Trials Results
OMAHA - Brendan McHugh was the first swimmer to do a lot of things during his career as a swimmer for the University of Pennsylvania, but he is saving his best for last as he attempts to swim his way to London and the 2012 Olympic Games.
In the prelimnaries of the 100m breaststroke, McHugh finished first in his heat in a time of 1:01.30, becoming the first Penn swimmer to reach the semifinals of a U.S. Olympic Trials event. He ended the preliminary session tied for ninth overall out of the 141 swimmers entered in the race. Even more impressive was the leap McHugh made from his pre-seed entering the tournament where he was ranked No. 41.
In the night session, McHugh finished fourth in a time of 1:01.04, and ranked 10th overall among the 16 swimmers who advanced. He was .21 seconds behind eighth place - the spot needed to reach Tuesday's final. McHugh will hold on to the second alternate spot in case there are two scratches before tomorrow's race.
In the heats, McHugh left his seeding in his wake, finishing his heat (number 12 of 15 races) as the fastest swimmer to that point. With three heats - and 30 swimmers who were all seeded above him left, McHugh waited as those three-plus minutes went by and his spot among the top-16 was clinched.
Future Quaker Bradley Wachenfeld got the day started for those with Red and Blue ties as he swam in the prelims of the 400m freestyle and finished in a time of 4:06.92 which did not advance him to the finals.

County Offers Grandparents Raising Grandchildren
a Day of Fun with a Family Luncheon and Game Day.
An estimated 3,500 households in Fairfax County have grandparents raising their grandchildren, many of whom have little opportunity for leisure. Fairfax County is sponsoring a Kinship Respite Day on Saturday, May 16, to provide grandparents (and other relatives) who are raising a child for another family member a day of fun with a family luncheon and games. Children ages 3 -12, who are Fairfax County residents, can participate in the free program. Children attending the event must be accompanied by an adult caregiver.
This event will be held from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. at two locations – the Gum Springs Community Center (8100 Fordson Rd., Alexandria, VA 22306), and at the Southgate Community Center (2125 Pinecrest Rd., Reston, VA 20191).
This is an opportunity for kinship families to meet, enjoy some mouth-watering food and participate in fun games with their children.
There is no cost for the Kinship Respite Day, but pre-registration is required by Monday, May 11. Lunch and snacks will be provided.
For more information or to register, call the Department of Family Services Fairfax Area Agency on Aging at 703-324-3517, TTY 703-222-9693.

The county's departments of Community and Recreation Services, Family Services, Systems Management for Human Services, Fairfax County Public Schools, and the Kinship Care Committee of Fairfax County are jointly sponsoring the event.
In addition to the respite day for relatives who are raising a child for another family member, the schools and other county departments have published a Kinship Care Resource Guide and are sponsoring two ongoing support groups that meet twice each month.
The Resource Guide is available on the Fairfax County Web site or in hard copy by calling the DFS publications manager at 703-324-5870, TTY 703-222-9452. The guide contains more than 100 pages of helpful information including child care services, financial and legal assistance, safety information, educational services, resources for children with special needs, services for older adults, community recreation resources and much more.
The support groups are open to any grandparents or other relatives raising children under age 18. The sessions are free and child care is provided. Pre-registration is required. The North County Grandparents Support Group meets on Tuesdays from 7 - 8:30 p.m. at the Pennino Building (12011 Government Center Parkway, Fairfax, VA 22035). The South County Grandparents Support Group meets on Thursdays from 6:30 - 8 p.m. at Bryant Alternative High School (2709 Popkins Lane, Alexandria, VA 22305).
