AURORA, Colo. — Family members of some of those killed or wounded in the mass shooting at a suburban Denver movie theater want Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper and other lawmakers to use their influence and move a $5 million victims' fund out of the hands of a private group.
They made the plea to have the money overseen by an independent arbitrator at a news conference Thursday that was markedly less emotional than one last month in which they demanded a say in how the $5 million is spent.
Tom Teves, of Phoenix, whose son, Alex, was among 12 people killed in the July 20 shooting, said the families have learned that the Giving First will be able to keep interest earned on money in the fund and plans to spend some money on mental health care for victims. But the families want the money given directly to them and have local, state and federal dollars pay for all medical bills, including mental health treatment, he said.
Teves said the families are working behind the scenes to help one another, such as reaching out to Habitat for Humanity to build a handicapped-accessible house for Ashley Moser. Her family has said she would be paralyzed as a result of her wounds. She also lost her 6-year-old daughter in the shooting and also miscarried.
"There have been two tragedies in Aurora. The first was the theater shooting. The second is how the victims have been treated by the powers that be," he said.
The 7/20 Recovery Committee, which makes recommendations on how the money is spent, issued a statement ahead of the press conference saying that it's committed to honoring the input of all victims, not just the voices of a few.
"In fact, we have been and continue to actively seek input from all the victims injured and who lost family in this tragic event," committee adviser Rich Audsely said.
Fewer people stood with Teves than at the previous press conference, but he didn't know many families were represented.

We describe protein interaction quantitation (PIQ), a computational method for modeling the magnitude and shape of genome-wide DNase I hypersensitivity profiles to identify transcription factor (TF) binding sites.
Here, we present the multiplexed editing regulatory assay (MERA), a high-throughput CRISPR-Cas9–based approach that analyzes the functional impact of the regulatory genome in its native context. Using this approach, we identify unmarked regulatory elements (UREs) that control gene expression but do not have typical enhancer epigenetic or chromatin features.
We present GERV, a novel computational method for predicting regulatory variants that affect transcription factor binding. GERV learns a k-mer-based generative model of transcription factor binding from ChIP-seq and DNase-seq data, and scores variants by the change of predicted ChIP-seq reads between the reference and alternate allele.

Compiled by David Gorgani | KF17 + KF18 | Guatemala
This week's update from the field features the rare mix of the first post from the new class of Fellows and one of the final posts from the finishing class of Fellows. This interesting juxtaposition captures both the intense shock of a new arrival in a very new atmosphere knowing that it will be home for the next four months, as well as the sense of appreciation from a Fellow that has been serving for eight months and is able to reflect on the people that were able to give her (and Kiva) a helping hand throughout this process. It's official ladies and gentlemen, please welcome KF18 to the field!
Who Are Some of Maya's Volunteers + What Do They Do?
Kimberly Strathearn | KF16 + KF17 | Turkey
After spending some time searching out volunteers to help with Maya's translations for Kiva.org, Kimberly sends a shout out to the individuals (and schools) who have responded to her calling.
Nairobi Incurred!
Varick Schwartz | KF 18 | Kenya
Varick, a newly arrived KF18 Fellow (and the first KF18 to post in Stories from the Field!) herein expresses his first impressions of Nairobi through poetry.

SHOPPING CART: Kid-friendly meals, bars and snacks
Sure, homemade food is always best, but once in a while parents need something ultra-quick to feed their children, especially in the busy back-to-school weeks.
Most frozen meals for kids are pretty scary, with ingredient lists that read like the Yellow Pages. That's why the new Kids Meals from Amy's in Petaluma are nice to have around in an emergency.
Two noodle dishes - macaroni and cheese and baked ziti - come with focaccia, broccoli and a fruit dessert. The ziti meal is gluten- and dairy-free. Kids might not love the foccacia, which is a little chewy, but they should enjoy the noodles. And there's nothing mysterious on the ingredient list, which includes organic pasta, vegetables and fruit.
Amy's Kids Meals are $2.99-$4.49 at natural foods stores like Berkeley Bowl, Apple Market in Novato, and many Whole Foods markets.

I am sitting here on this cold cold snowy day and just staring out the window, watching the snowflakes fall down one by one. It is a gorgeous winter wonderland out there but there is no reason to head outside. All I want to do in stay in my pjs and watch the snowflakes come down (Let's not think about the shoveling for now).
While watching and thinking, food comes to mind. Anyone out there feeling me? I decided to surprise my family with comfort foods. Hey, I wasn't the one who left the cozy house, it was the least I could do for them to show my love.
First thing that comes to mind is steamy hot cocoa. Lets not forget about those marshmallows on top.
Soup is perfect for snowy days. It warms the heart and soul. Mmm. This picture speaks for itself. Broccoli Cheddar Soup!
Memories of snacking on some hot popcorn in front of a crackling fire place wouldn't leave my mind.Try this Carmel Popcorn.
Last but not least the ultimate comfort food - Pasta. Can't get quicker then this 2 minute penne ala vodka.

A Hummus Among Us
There has been a hummus among us me for the past 3 days. With the husband being gone for two weeks, I have reverted back to my single girl ways (you know where I find something I love and eat it every day, all day). I have eaten this hummus for the last 3 days straight. I have had it for lunch, snack, dinner, and I may or may not have eaten a couple bites of it before leaving my house at 7 am this morning (no one was there to see…so if no one saw it, it doesn't really count). I have eaten it with wheat thins, carrots, cucumbers, celery, pita, and today I even had it in a wrap…you know to branch out and all. So now think about this, I have eaten Roasted Garlic Hummus for the last 3 days, all day. That's right. I smell like the socks from a sweaty Middle Eastern chef. And then this afternoon, after my hummus fest, the husband calls and informs me that he will be getting out of work early, and making the 4 hour drive home…and will be home right in time for dinner. My mind immediately figures out that it is going to take me the full 4 hours to detox myself and scrub every inch of my body to smell half way decent…and with that being priority number 1, I will not have time to go to the store and get something for dinner since all I had was…Hummus (which would have been fine for me, but I don't think my pores could take another dose of garlic and I know Jorge would not have been thrilled with hummus for dinner). Luckily, I convinced him to take me out to dinner and he sweetly never mentioned if I still smelled like those socks I mentioned earlier. However I did catch the hostess giving me the stank eye…but I am pretty sure that is because I have such a handsome husband…not because I smelled like an underarm.
Either way, I have finished all of the hummus I had, and when the husband leaves again on Sunday I plan on whipping up another huge batch. Not only was it easy to throw together, it was also tasty and ass friendly healthy. As my scary addiction grows, I keep contemplating buying this mug saying "Hummus Is My Homeboy". Do you think they make it in a bowl instead? That way I could use it to eat my hummus out of…
Roasted Garlic Hummus
2 cups canned chick-peas or cooked chickpeas
3 tablespoons tahini
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup warm water
1 extra large head of garlic
1 lemon, juice of
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Preheat oven to 375°F Cut off the very top of the garlic clove (about 1/4") so that the tops of most of the cloves are exposed slightly. Coat with a little olive oil and wrap securely in tin foil. Roast garlic in oven for 1 hour. Remove and allow cool.
Using your fingers, squeeze the soft, roasted garlic out of each clove into food processor (this is easily done when the garlic has cooled completely). Set aside 3 garlic cloves for later use. Rinse and drain chickpeas. Add them, and all other ingredients except olive oil and the 3 roasted garlic cloves you set aside, to the food processor and blend until completely smooth.
Scrape ingredients off sides of food processor to make sure it blends evenly. Finally add a tablespoon of olive oil at a time until you have reached the desired consistency. Add it very slowly, allowing the mixture to combine fully before adding more liquid. For a tasty garnish, mince the 3 roasted garlic cloves you set aside and toss in a tiny bit of olive oil and place on top of hummus.
Serve at room temperature with pita, crackers, or veggies. Also you can add it as a condiment to a wrap! Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week.

is a unique Institute in the Indian Church that offers specialization in the Theology of Consecrated Life. It is an initiative of the Claretian Missionaries to re-vision consecrated life in the new millennium and to help consecrated women and men to understand more clearly their identity, mission and relevance. It seeks to promote and bring together the efforts of all those who are committed to the re-visioning and renewal of Consecrated life.
"Our mission is to be prophetic servants of the word through a life of holiness, inculturated presence and creative response to the needs of God's people especially the marginalized, for their integral growth and development, by living and working in communion and in collaboration with all people of good will."
Sanyasa Institute of Consecrated Life envisages to concretize this vision with the renewal of consecrated people and by helping them to deepen the understanding of their call to holiness and commitment to the service of the Church.
Renewal of Consecrated life has been an important thrust of the summer programs conducted at Claret Nivas, Carmelaram for many years. Sanyasa is the natural offshoot of this undertaking. The one month course on Religious Life has been a regular feature of this centre from 1990. Many Religious in India and abroad profited from this program.
A survey was taken among the major religious Congregations in India to study about the need for a major Institute focusing on the Theology of Consecrated Life. Having recieved a positive response and encouragment we started Sanyasa Institute of Consecrated Life with One year Diploma course in 2002 with 54 students. From then on, new batches joined the Institute every year in June. Considering the need for a deeper study and research in Theology of Consecrated Life we started the M.A. Course in 2005.
- Possibility for both Ecclesiastical and Civil Degrees
- Residential and Non-residential options
- Open to Indian and Foreign students
- Audit program: Possibilities to participate in selected courses
- Seminars on themes related to various aspects of Consecrated Life
- Guest Lectures by renowned scholars from India and abroad
- Open also for Diocesan Priests and Lay people interested in the study of Consecrated Life
Learn More
The Institute is named Sanyasa because this word seems to be the closest equivalent of Consecrated life in the Indian traditions. But the Institute should not be misunderstood as an Ashram for those searching for a time of prayer, meditation and solitude. Through contextualizing religious life in the Asian context, Sanyasa offers an academic program for deepening the understanding of Consecrated Life especially in the light of the latest thrust the church has given for its renewal.
Though the Institute has in mind the vast number of religious Congregations in India as the primary target group, it is open for the students from all over the world. Students from other Asian countries like South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia and Myanmar and from Africa have been participants in our programs.
Through the various courses, living experience and publications of journal and books, Sanyasa Institute aims at:
- Renewal of religious commitment in dialogue with the rich religious and cultural heritage of Asia, especially India
- Training formation personnel in the Theology of Consecrated Life
- Fostering the uniqueness and complementarity of the different forms of Christian Life
- Preparation for different stages of formation in Consecrated Life especially for Perpetual commitment
- Deepening of Consecration and Mission
Sanyasa is situated off Sarjapur Road at Carmelaram, about 20 KM from the centre of Bangalore city. Away from the hustles and bustles of the city life, amidst the beautiful garden and peaceful landscape around, Sanyasa has a conducive atmosphere for study, reflection and prayer.

Published June 14, 2013
A story on CBS News about Thursday's Supreme Court ruling that human genes cannot be patented quotes Mark Bartholomew, UB professor of law who specializes in intellectual property, law and technology. The ruling struck a "cautious middle ground" that could negatively impact the research industry, he said. "Given the high stakes here – the Court's decision could either result in sky-high prices for potentially lifesaving medical treatments or decimate the incentives for research in the biotechnology industry – the Court's split-the-baby approach is not surprising." Bartholomew also was quoted on Fox News and on WIBW-TV in Topeka, Kansas.

All it takes is a 'pop' of colour and a rather plain room transforms into 'just gorgeous'.
I'm obsessed with yellow at the moment. Nothing says 'happy' more than yellow, I reckon.
Good morning! Coffee is on. Another lazy school holiday morning. My big boy has been so sick but he is over the worst of it. Took him to hospital yesterday just to be sure. Little one was wringing his hands, "I don't want my brother to die", rabbiting on about swine flu and Hendra virus (I need to temper his news bulletin viewing). He is just so grateful his big brother got the all clear. He is currently lying in his big brother's bed, rubbing his back for him. Heartstrings.
Have a great day.

FGS Conference – Day 2 Presentations
Next I went to "Alabama Ancestral Records" presented by Lori Thornton. I have not yet dug deeply into Alabama resources, so this was a good introduction.
The half hour in between presentations turned out to be insufficient to really be able to do the kind of browsing among the booths in the Exhibition Hall that I (and most other people I spoke to) needed/wanted to do, so I took the next presentation block off and went to lunch with my husband, then returned at noon, when the hall was scheduled to open again. This was a more satisfactory approach, and I was able to peruse the books and other wares to my heart's content and shmooze with the people at the booths.
After lunch I settled in at Pamela Sayer's presentation, "Murder at the Sawmill," which is both a mystery story and a genealogical case study (and illustrates the idea that the interrelationships in many of these backwoods communities is too complex to be represented by anything as straightforward as a plain ole tree).
While I was waiting in the same room for the next presentation to begin, Tina Lyons came over and asked me if I wanted to come sit on "GeneaBloggers Row" – I certainly did and I wondered how nearsighted I actually am that I didn't see them before. It was a lot of fun to be able to share stories and discuss the Convention. Meeting up with the other Genea-Bloggers made me realize a couple of things: 1. I am way behind everyone else in terms of technology. The disparity in our cell phones (that's all mine is) alone illustrates how backward I am. 2. I may have to give in to Twitter and at least become a "Conference Tweeter" (one who only tweets during conferences so as to maintain contact and plan get-togethers with fellow attendees).
We were all enthralled by Elizabeth Shown Mills' presentation on "The Genealogical Proof Standard. I had never seen any of her presentations before, and was truly inspired and energized by her lecture. (And I am not prejudiced just because she is a Southern girl.)
Most of us stayed in the same room for the next presentation, which I cannot describe here because the presenter did not want people to blog about it or Tweet it.
Afterward we all headed down to the Exhibition Hall to visit the booths and be present during the drawings for door prizes. None of us won the iPad – sob! But one of us won a prize – I did! It was Megan Smolenyak's Who Do You Think You Are? Which I just happened to have bought right before this trip! So I passed it to another deserving Genea-Blogger. Missy, if you ever win anything … like an iPad … I hope you will be inspired to return the favor.

Hi Greta, just wanted to say I enjoyed meeting you at FGS. Hope we all have more conferences in our future.ReplyDelete
Don't feel bad. I just realized that I am behind in technology too. I just got an iphone last month, and that was only b/c the $30 phone I had bought at Wal-Mart 2 years ago finally died. Tina had to remind me that I have a compass and GPS on on my phone. Who knew? And I never used Twitter until this conference. I am really starting to like it. At first I thought I would just be a conference tweeter, but who knows? Anyhow, it was great meeting you and your husband!
There is always time to catch up on technology, it's not going anywhere! :) I heard Elizabeth Shown Mills speak at NGS a few years ago, I agree she is enthralling!ReplyDelete
Enjoyed your posts of the conference!
Linda - I'm working on reserving rooms for NGS!ReplyDelete
Jennifer - Yeah, I realized I have to wait for my current phone to die before I can get an iPhone....
Thank you, Jenna! And on the technology thing - as Donna Moughty pointed out at her presentation, it's best not to be an early adopter.

The first Pie Five Pizza Co. restaurant in the Volusia and Flagler county area is set to open in Port Orange this December.
The first Pie Five Pizza Co. restaurant in the Volusia and Flagler county area is set to open in Port Orange this December.
Franchise owner and local entrepreneur, L. Gale Lemerand, signed a 2,400-square-foot lease at the Gateway Center for the fast-casual pizza location, and intends to open more than 20 additional restaurants throughout the state, "every 90 days," he said.
"It's a ground floor opportunity with a very, very experienced company with a new concept," Lemerand told the News-Journal last June.
Lemerand, who is also majority owner of the Stonewood Grill & Tavern chain as well as several other restaurants, said he chose to open his first location in Port Orange, "because in performing site selection, Port Orange was the first area to approve our permit requests."
The Gateway Center, which will house the Pie Five, is at 1781 Dunlawton Ave., just east of Interstate-95. The center is anchored by Panera Bread and fronts Super Target and Lowe's Home Improvement.
Lemerand expects to spend between $375,000 and $425,000 to open each of his Pie Five restaurants, including the Port Orange space. The cost includes a $25,000 franchise fee per location.
Pie Five Pizza Co., whose parent company is Dallas-based Pizza Inn Holdings Inc., opened its first restaurant in the Dallas-Fort Worth area in June 2011. It now has 10 locations in Texas and one in Utah, with plans to expand into other states.
The Pie Five concept offers a customizable, build-your-own pizza that is 9.5 to 10 inches in size and can be ready to eat within five minutes of placing an order. The pizzas sell for $6.78.
Lemerand said Pie Five's competition would be other fast-casual restaurants, such as Subway and Chipotle.
A similar concept restaurant, Mi Pi, recently opened in the Paragon Ocean Walk 10 movie theater in Daytona Beach.
Pie Five has been named a 2013 Top 50 Restaurant Brand of the Year, a 2012 Hot Concepts winner by Nation's Restaurant News, an honor that Lemerand's own Ormond Beach-based Stonewood Grill & Tavern chain received in 2002.
Pie Five is also one of the "10 Hot New Restaurant Chains from Established Brands" by Forbes.com.
The Port Orange Pie Five will employ 15 to 20 employees, said Lemerand and it will seat 75 customers.
"We won't start hiring until three weeks before opening," he said.
Lemerand is having difficulty finding other sites in the Volusia and Flagler county area with good parking and easy access.
He's looking along International Speedway Boulevard and around Seabreeze High School in Daytona Beach, Granada Boulevard in Ormond Beach and in Daytona Beach Shores.
"We would like to be around other fast casual restaurants on a good, busy street — but that isn't easy to find," he said.
Lemerand is also interested in opening Pie Fives in Marion, Orange and Brevard counties.
He said his next Pie Five location will be in Gainesville and should be open in February.
"This sounds like its going to be an exciting venture," said Costa Magoulas, Daytona State College's culinary program dean, "pizza is one of those items that will always be popular — it's relatively inexpensive and is a healthier food option."
Magoulas added, "Lemerand is a very successful businessman so he knows what hes doing."
"Anything that he gets involved with will be very good," he said.

The AmigaNet is a full length Zorro II Ethernet card (NatSemi 32490CN) for the Amiga. Depending on the specific versions of the card, it supports 10Base5, 10Base2 and 10BaseT. To support 10BaseT, your card may require an optional upgrade to attach the RJ45 connector to the board. Earlier revisions of the board have two BNC connectors, rather than the conventional single connector that most ethernet cards have. This means you do not need the "T" connector which you do with other ethernet cards. You simply attach both BNC connectors to the same network segment. The AmigaNet has been reported to transfer at up to 600k/sec. The Zorro II network card released by GVP called the A-Net 2000 was simply this card rebadged.
There is only one set of jumpers, block F1, which has six pairs of pins. When all are in the down position, it is set to ThinNet 10Base2 (CheaperNet). When all are jumpered in the up position, it is set to use the AUI port for 10Base5.

Episode 3.16 - The Empire Strikes Jack
Monday, March 29, 2010
Chuck (Ed Westwick) finds himself once again at odds with his uncle, Jack Bass (guest star Desmond Harrington).

KANSAS CITY -- Sometimes good things go bad. Nobody wants it to happen. Everybody tries to make it work. But sometimes good things go bad anyway. And you look back and realize that this is price of the years ... and being human.
* * *
Frank White sits on a stage in the basement of a Kansas City library. The huge room overflows with people. There must be 500 people squeezing in here. An overflow crowd sits upstairs, maybe another 100 or so, and they can watch Frank White talk on a large television. Another 100 or 150 loiter the hallway between. They cannot see White. They can hear him, though. They are listening to their childhood.
"I'm not bitter," Frank White says.
* * *
The day before the event, the Kansas City Royals released a statement.
"Frank White holds a special place in Royals history and with our fans -- evidenced by his statue at Kauffman Stadium, his retired jersey and the many years he was employed by the franchise.
"Following his retirement as a player, the Royals arranged for him to hold a number of positions with the team. While Frank's role evolved over time based on his own requests as well as the needs of the organization, we were disappointed when he made the decision to leave his position as a community ambassador.
"We continue to respect what Frank has done for our city and the role he played in Royals history, and he always will be a part of the Royals tradition."
* * *
One man in the hallway wanders up from behind and taps me on the shoulder. He asks if I am the sportswriter. I nod.
"Write this," he says. "Frank White is the greatest baseball player ever to play in Kansas City. You hear me? The greatest to ever play here."
I nod again.
"And write this," he says. "The Royals are a disgrace."
* * *
Frank White grew up in the neighborhood around Municipal Stadium on 22nd and Brooklyn in the heart of Kansas City. This was before the Royals existed. The local team was the Kansas City Athletics back then. Satchel Paige pitched here. Mickey Mantle hit here. Catfish Hunter pitched here. Reggie Jackson hit here. In Frank White's childhood, the Kansas City A's were routinely the worst team in the American League. Still, he could hear the crowds cheering at night.
He did not imagine himself playing baseball for a living. His aspirations hovered much lower; they didn't even play baseball at Lincoln High School. But there was a park in the neighborhood, and kids would play ball, and White was faster and more athletic than most of the guys. Anyway, he got a job at a metal plating company in town.
And then he heard that the Kansas City Royals, the new team in town, were having tryouts for something they called the Royals Baseball Academy.
* * *
"I write in the book, 'Never say never!'" Frank White is telling the crowd in the basement of the library, and they cheer him. He says he learned this in baseball, from an old warhorse of a baseball man named Tony Muser. Ol' Muse used to say: "Never say never. Never say always. What's most important is to be right at that particular time."
He does not stress that in the book, his autobiography, he also wrote; "They" -- meaning the Kansas City Royals -- "broke my heart."
He also wrote this: "You'll never see me in that stadium again."
* * *
The Royals Baseball Academy was the idea of team owner Ewing Kauffman. He was not a baseball man. He barely followed the sport before buying the team. He made his fortune in pharmaceuticals; he began by selling them out of his basement. He didn't know baseball. But he knew how to sell. And he knew innovation. He could not believe that baseball teams were still trying to develop talent the same way they had 50 years before.
And so he came up with the concept: The Royals would find raw athletes, pure talents, young men with limited baseball experience. They held tryouts all over the country. They would teach these young men how to play the game in a dusty academy in Nowhere, Florida. Frank White was one of those young men.
The days were beautiful drudgery -- hour after hour after hour of fielding ground balls, going to classes (both baseball and academic), perfecting the bunt, listening to long lectures about hitting the ball to the right side and getting the sure out and the sacred duty to hit the cut-off man and cover first base and back up the catcher.
White hated it. And loved it. He showed a genius for defense. There were also rattlesnakes in the Florida outfield. He improved rapidly. He made $48 a month. At one point, he was working on the construction crew building a new stadium, one that would eventually be named for Ewing Kauffman. White considered quitting the crazy baseball dream and staying in construction where the money was steady. Ewing Kauffman and others told him to hang in there.
* * *
In 2001, the Kansas City Royals played the Cleveland Indians in May. Frank White was coaching the Royals by then. The pitchers were each team's best prospect, both former first-round picks. Both had dazzling stuff, at least at times. Frank White sat on the bench and looked out, and something troubled him.
The Royals hot prospect was a righty named Dan Reichert.
The Indians hot prospect was a lefty named C.C. Sabathia.
The Indians won 5-1.
The question pounding in Frank White's mind was this: "How come our No. 1 draft pick pitches like THIS and their No. 1 draft pick pitches like THAT?"
* * *
There was a comprehensive way the Kansas City Royals played baseball when Frank White was called to the big leagues in the mid-1970s. They broke up double plays hard. They crashed into catchers at the plate. They constantly looked to take the extra base. They caught everything. They played every day. Such things were non-negotiable. Heaven help the ballplayer caught in the training room. He would never hear the end of it.
The vocal leader was Hal McRae. Perhaps the best description of McRae comes from a furious playoff series against the Yankees. Before one game, he and the Yankees' Cliff Johnson got into a ferocious argument, and Johnson challenged McRae to settle matters under the stands. "Cliff," McRae said plainly, "I don't fight extra men."
Amos Otis led in his own way. He who would sporadically put up a "No Interviews" sign and alternate between sourness because he was getting too much attention and sullenness because he was getting too little. But he played the game with a precision that awed his teammates. He dissected pitchers' motions so thoroughly that he would often steal bases standing up. He rarely missed cut-off men and never gave away at-bats by trying to do too much.
John Mayberry led in his own way, too. He was a big bear of a man who would hit long home runs and would never allow young players to pick up the check. "You be sure to buy rookies dinner when you can afford it," he would say. He also would needle players until they were so angry they spit fire. Everyone would remember the bus trip where Mayberry's words cut deep into McRae until finally Hal couldn't take it. "You will probably kill me," he said as he stood up. "But here I come." And he attacked.
This was the time Frank White joined in 1973, the team he played with for the next 18 years. It was the cliché, team as family, complete with fights and squabbles and conversation and love and fury and celebration, and always -- ALWAYS -- a hard line on playing to win. A wasted at-bat, a botched play, a break in concentration, there was no place for that in Kansas City. If you lost, you moved on, you had to move on, but with a small piece of yourself missing.
And if anyone out there, anyone, threw at you or slid in spikes-high, you never had 24 better friends. That's what Kansas City baseball meant to Frank White. Seven times they would reach the playoffs, back when this really meant something. Twice they reached the World Series. Once -- only once -- they won it all. Playing for the Kansas City Royals would convince Frank White that he, like the team, was a winner.
* * *
A year-by-year look at the Royals lineup changes since 2003, the last year that they contended for anything:
2004: Raul Ibanez left for more money. Carlos Beltran was traded mid-season. Rookie of the Year Angel Berroa regressed. The Royals continued a nasty trend of picking up Aging Recognizable Names (ARNs) in the desperate hope that they might (1) recapture their youth, and (2) provide leadership. This year's ARNs included two-time MVP Juan Gonzalez, who played 33 games before a day-to-day injury took him out for the rest of the season. Other ARNs: Tony Graffanino, Matt Stairs and Benito Santiago.
2005: A year for youth! The Royals played youngsters Mark Teahen, Ruben Gotay and David DeJesus. They lost 100 games.
2006: Youth is wasted on the young! The Royals went back to the ARNs. They tapped the Scrabble board to get Doug Mientkiewicz and Mark Grudzielanek, along with affable former star Reggie Sanders. They lost 100 games.
2007: Back to youth! Sure, the Royals added ARNs Ross Gload and Jason LaRue, and they signed pitcher Gil Meche for a boatload of money. But mostly they built their team around phenom Alex Gordon, who did not get his average over .200 until the middle of June. But Meche pitched well, as did two young pitchers -- Rule V pickup Joakim Soria and sabermetric wonder Brian Bannister -- and the Royals managed to break their three-year streak of 100-loss seasons.
2008: The Royals signed Jose Guillen to the biggest contract in team history. They got Miguel Olivo. But another youngster, Billy Butler, debuted, and former No. 1 overall pick Luke Hochevar became a regular starter, and 24-year-old pitcher Zack Greinke seemed to be stable and focused for the first time. The Royals lost only 87 games, their best record in five years.
2009: Back to the ARNs! The Royals went out and got Coco Crisp, Mike Jacobs and, perhaps most bizarrely, Yuniesky Betancourt. The farm system was totally barren. They lost 97 games.
2010: More ARNs! The Royals got Rick Ankiel ... and Scott Podsednik ... and Willie Bloomquist ... and Jason Kendall ... it's as if something snapped and the Royals were determined to sign every castoff in the big leagues. They lost 95 games.
2011: Youth again! The Royals did add a couple more veteran castoffs -- Jeff Francoeur and Melky Cabrera -- but at least they were somewhat young. And they dipped into their suddenly stocked collection of talented young players: Mike Moustakas, Eric Hosmer, Alcides Escobar and Johnny Giavatello. They improved a bit and lost 91.
2012: The Royals, other than a strange relapse in re-signing Yuniesky Betancourt, seemed to stay with the program of young players. Unfortunately, those young players did not develop quite as quickly as hoped, and the starting pitching was astonishingly bad, and the Royals lost 90 games. They promised to spend money and improve for 2013. This quest began with the signing of ARN Ervin Santana and the re-signing of ARN Jeremy Guthrie.

Frank White is still trim, great shape, and several times a day people will say to him: "You look like you could still put on the old uniform, Frank!" He likes this. He also likes that wherever he goes in Kansas City, he will run into someone who will have a story about watching him play for the Royals in the old days. Kansas City is not that big a place. And Frank White has lived an ever-present Kansas City life.
They booed him at first, you know. Frank loves mentioning that. He was the hometown kid, but they booed him anyway because he replaced Cookie Rojas and everybody loved Cookie. Also White didn't hit in the early years.
But, right away, he was a wonder in the field. Royals Stadium, as it was called then, was covered in artificial turf -- perhaps the fastest and bounciest turf in baseball. Balls skimmed off that turf at speeds that made infielders shake. Frank White simply invented a new way to play second base on that turf. He played deep and allowed his strong arm to make up the space. He moved left and right so quickly that he seemed to chase down ground balls from behind. He was probably the best who ever lived at catching pop-ups behind first base. Big John Mayberry, instead of yelling "I got it!" when balls in the air were behind him, would instead boom: "Frank! Frank!"
White's grace, though, was what people would remember most. That is something extra. There have been many breathtaking defenders who looked plain. Rey Sanchez was like that. He was not beautiful to watch. He simply made every play look routine. The ball stuck to his glove, and he never made dramatic efforts for balls that he knew he could not reach, and his arm was always just good enough to get the runner by a step. He never won a Gold Glove. He didn't look like a virtuoso. He just was one.
Frank White, though, jumped and leaped and dived. He had this beautiful, light-footed way of moving, like a dancer, and so when the ball was hit his way there was a jolt of anticipation throughout the stadium. He threw from all angles -- overhand, sidearm, underhand, whatever the situation demanded. He contorted his body any number of ways to complete dazzling double plays. No one who saw Frank White play could doubt that they were watching a master. And this was something that would stay with them for the rest of their lives.
And, everyone figured, one way or another, Frank White would always be a Royal.
* * *
The Kansas City Royals have not won the World Series since 1985. They also have not made the playoffs since 1985. And, depending on your definition of contention -- say it means actually having a chance to reach the postseason in the last week of the season -- they have not really contended since 1985, either.
So that year has a powerful meaning for Kansas City baseball fans. Many -- most, probably -- are just plain sick of hearing about 1985. This is the way time winds. At first, everyone still remembers 1985. Heck, it just happened. But soon, the kids have to be told about it. Soon after those kids are in middle school, then high school, and before long they are in college, they have graduated. And they don't remember 1985.
And suddenly you look around and nobody under 30 or 35 has any recollection of the Royals actually winning anything. What they DO recollect is being told about 1985 their whole lives ... and told about it ... and told about it ... until they are sick of listening, sick of celebrating something they cannot remember, sick of the Royals never giving them their own memories to cherish.
Even those who do remember, well, 1985 begins to take on unhappy meanings. The fans and players from that time find themselves increasingly angrier that the franchise has broken so far away from the spirit and success of those early Royals teams, increasingly angrier to see their team become what they see as a directionless mess with an absentee owner and a boatload of excuses.
Meanwhile, the current Royals, and perhaps some of their fans, grow sick of being judged by a 30-year-ago standard, when the game was very different, when you could keep a team together, when you could pencil in George Brett third in the lineup every year, when Pittsburgh and Kansas City and Milwaukee and Cincinnati and Baltimore and Oakland and other mid-sized towns ruled the land.
So you can see where the contentiousness might come in.
* * *
The breaking point for Frank White probably came on Sept. 29, 2002. There would be a lot of breaking points, before and after, but that was the big one. White was a Kansas City legend. He'd had his number retired. He coached first base for a while. He was almost certainly the second most popular Royal in the city, behind only George Brett -- including active Royals players. That, in itself, was telling.
But something was shifting. White had been shuffled into the front office after manager Tony Muser was fired. He didn't like that. He felt like his opinion wasn't valued. He felt like the team was going in the wrong direction. He had a dream of being a big league manager, and he thought this took him off track. Frank, even as a player, was never one to keep his feelings to himself. He also, to be blunt about it, was someone who saw disrespect in places where others might not.
On Sept. 29, the Royals were playing their last game of a dismal season. They had lost 99 games. Another loss would make it 100 -- the first time the Royals ever lost 100 games in a season. For people in the organization, this was just the shuffling of meaningless numbers. "What's the difference?" Royals GM Allard Baird would ask. His feeling was: Last place is last place is last place, no matter the accounting.
To Frank White -- and to other Royals players of the past -- it did mean something. White was proud that the Royals had never lost 100 games. It was just a little something to cling to in troubled times, a little point of pride that stood for something.
That day, the Royals sent out a half-team. A minor leaguer named Kit Pellow hit cleanup. Dusty Wathan -- son of Royals hero John Wathan -- made his only big league start. The Royals lost 7-3 to a Cleveland team not trying especially hard to win. And Frank White felt like something had snapped, and it could never quite be the same.
After that, White worked in the front office. He did not like it. He made it clear that he would like to be considered for Royals manager, and backed up his ambition by going to Double-A Wichita and managing in the minor leagues for three years. The Royals instead hired veteran manager Buddy Bell -- a good baseball man who in 24 years of playing and managing had never reached the postseason. When that did not work out, they hired Trey Hillman, who was managing in Japan. It was a pretty clear statement. White went to work full-time in Royals promotion. When Hillman didn't work out, the Royals hired Ned Yost, who has managed the Milwaukee Brewers for six years to an overall losing record.
Somewhere in there, a Frank White statue was built and placed outside the stadium.
* * *
In time, White was hired to work as the Royals' full-time television announcer. This was when the popular and wonderful longtime broadcaster, Paul Splittorff, got sick and could no longer speak as clearly.
White was, based on subjective measures, very popular on television. People would talk all the time about how much they liked listening to him. He was not a natural broadcaster, but he worked at it. His specialty was breaking down replays to explain what had happened -- why the second baseman couldn't complete the double play, why the outfielder had taken a poor route to the ball, what was so great about that shortstop chasing down the pop fly in foul ground. Mostly, he was Frank White.
But here is where that 1985 thing began to flare up. Some of the people with the Royals felt that White was unfairly critical -- not just on the broadcast, but at the stadium when talking with people from other teams.
"I like Frank," someone closely involved with the Royals told me. "Everybody likes Frank. But he has become really negative about the team. It's not just our imagination. People around the league say it. We make mistakes. But we're trying. And Frank just doesn't realize how much it hurts us to have him saying negative things. We are trying to build something, and Frank can do a lot of damage with his negativity."
Meanwhile, White felt certain that he wasn't being negative... he felt like few people loved the Royals as much as he did. But, let's be honest, he couldn't help but see that the Royals were still going very much in the wrong direction and had learned little from the great successes of the Royals in the 1970s and 1980s. White split from the Royals marketing department -- each side gives a very different view of how that happened.
And not long after, White was also let go from his broadcasting job. That, officially, was done by Fox Sports. But everyone knew that the Royals had been involved in the decision.
And now, Frank White -- who grew up in Kansas City, who was a Royals player his whole career, who coached the team, who managed in their minor leagues, promoted the team throughout the Midwest, who broadcast for the team when they needed him most -- works for an Independent League team called the Kansas City T-Bones.
And Rex Hudler, who played for six teams but never the Royals, who has spawned at least five fake Twitter accounts, who sparked 54 different people in 2012 to email me unprovoked with heated complaints (so I can only guess how many the Royals have received) is broadcasting Kansas City baseball.
"I would love for there to be a way for the Royals and Frank to get back together," one Royals insider says. "But I'm not sure how it can happen."
"The one thing I cannot believe," Frank White says, "is that after all those years those guys never got to know me. Nobody wants the Royals to succeed more than I do."
* * *
These are good people on both sides. They all care about the Royals. They have different views about how to make the Royals winners again, but they all want it to happen.
So why does it have to come to this? Why is Frank White working for a team named after steaks while The Kansas City Star has a story about how bitter he remains? Why are the Kansas City Royals, who remain stymied in their increasingly desperate effort to succeed again and win back the town, going on without their hometown hero and one of the most popular players the team has ever had?
"Time moves on," one Royals executive tells me. The older you get the more you find: Those three words mean many different things.

Let $K\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ be a compact set with non-empty interior and Lipschitz boundary. In Section VI.3 of his book "Singular Integrals and Differentiability Properties of Functions", E. M. Stein constructs a linear operator $E_K$ continuously mapping the Sobolev space $W_{p,k}(K)$ into the Sobolev space $W_{p,k}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ for all $1\leq p\leq\infty$, $k=0,1,2,\ldots$, and such that $(E_K f)(x)=f(x)$ for all $x\in K$, $f\in W_{p,k}(K)$, nowadays called Stein's extension operator in the literature (actually, Stein builds $E_K$ with the above properties for $K$ closed with non-empty interior and locally Lipschitz boundary, but this will not be needed for the question). Consider now the linear operator $\tilde{E}_K:C^\infty(\mathbb{R}^n)\rightarrow C^\infty(\mathbb{R}^n)$ given by
$$\tilde{E}_K f=E_K(f|_K)$$
By Sobolev's embedding theorem (which does hold for $K$ as above), $\tilde{E}_K$ is a continuous linear map.
Question: Does the distribution kernel of $\tilde{E}_K$ have its wave front set contained in the conormal bundle to the diagonal of $\mathbb{R}^n\times\mathbb{R}^n$? In other words, does the extension of $\tilde{E}_K$ to $\mathscr{D}'(\mathbb{R}^n)$ by duality decrease wave front sets?

Is It A Problem If People Only Discover A Musician Because They Have A Cool Kickstarter?
from the uh,-nope deptOne of the things we've heard for years, whenever we talk about awesome marketing campaigns and business models that musicians and other artists have put together, is that it's somehow a "shame" that the artists are getting attention for the campaign/business model, rather than the art itself. Even Amanda Palmer expressed some concern about this in a recent blog post:
the weirdest thing right now is that everybody KNOWS about it. i'm now famous for my kickstarter.There were definitely similar concerns about things like Radiohead's In Rainbows, where some said it's only known as the "pay what you want album." That said, Palmer immediately points out that she's not too hung up on this, and discusses repeatedly what a "fucking game-changer" Kickstarter is for the music business.
which is a little depressing. i wish that i could steal all that enthusiasm and high-fiving i've getting from strangers in the street (literally) and re-route it to the album when comes out. i don't want this album to be remembered as "the kickstarter record."
i do want this record to explode. and i want this record to explode because it is awesome.
However, it did seem worth focusing in a bit on this point to think about it some more. Is it really that big a problem if people know you for doing something innovative that is indirectly connected to the art? I don't think so. The biggest challenge for many (probably most) artists these days is obscurity. They need ways to stand out from the crowd -- and often that goes beyond the music.
But none of that eclipses the music entirely.
Sure, some people may focus on the business model or the marketing efforts, but that's a fantastic conduit to the music. The only reason I learned about Amanda Palmer in the first place, years ago, was her efforts to get out of her major label recording deal, after the label (Warner Music) took her own videos down as part of their fight with YouTube. And, obviously, she's done lots of other interesting things that matter to the community here as well. Since first learning about her, however, I've become a huge fan of her music as well (and discovered that she puts on a fantastic live show).
Basically, everything that you do as an artist to stand out still leads back to the work. And the best gimmick in the world isn't that effective if the art isn't amazing too.
It's what we've said in the past: no marketing, no gimmick, no trick will "work" if you're not also producing awesome content. Sure, there will always be some people who support you for doing something cool in how you present yourself. But, as our critics always like to remind us, the art itself is still central. And no one's denied that. But we take it for granted that if you're going to make any of these new things work you also have to make good content. And if you make good content, but attract attention for a successful Kickstarter, it's quite likely that a bunch of those people will become true fans of the music (and the artist) as well.

OWENSBORO, Ky. – Clinton Schank, a 2009 graduate of Perry Central High School, has recently been named to the dean's list at Owensboro Community Technical College.

December 25 - Christmas
In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered.This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem,because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.
In that region there were shepherds living in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. Then an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid; for see—I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.'And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favours!'
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, 'Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.' So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger.When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them. But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.
After eight days had passed, it was time to circumcise the child; and he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
When the time came for their purification according to the law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the law of the Lord, 'Every firstborn male shall be designated as holy to the Lord'), and they offered a sacrifice according to what is stated in the law of the Lord, 'a pair of turtle-doves or two young pigeons.'
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; this man was righteous and devout, looking forward to the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit rested on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Messiah. Guided by the Spirit, Simeon came into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what was customary under the law, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying,
'Master, now you are dismissing your servant in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles and for glory to your people Israel.'
And the child's father and mother were amazed at what was being said about him. Then Simeon blessed them and said to his mother Mary, 'This child is destined for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be opposed so that the inner thoughts of many will be revealed—and a sword will pierce your own soul too.'
There was also a prophet, Anna the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, having lived with her husband for seven years after her marriage,then as a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshiped there with fasting and prayer night and day. At that moment she came, and began to praise God and to speak about the child to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
When they had finished everything required by the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favour of God was upon him.

Latest Mental Health News
WEDNESDAY, June 18, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Some U.S. jurisdictions are now requiring a doctor's OK for people to carry a concealed gun, but a new survey suggests many doctors aren't comfortable with that role.
The survey, of 222 North Carolina doctors, found that 21 percent had been asked in the past year to sign "competency permits" for patients to carry a concealed weapon. By signing, the doctor attests to the patient's mental and physical ability to safely carry a firearm.
The problem, experts say, is that there are no standard definitions of physical or mental "competence," and doctors have been left to make those calls on their own.
"There are no guidelines on this," said Dr. Adam Goldstein, the senior researcher on the study and a professor of family medicine at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Laws vary, but in many U.S. states people who apply for a permit to carry a concealed weapon have to be deemed physically and mentally competent. In some jurisdictions, the sheriff's office contacts the applicant's primary care doctor.
Goldstein said he got his first such request soon after the December 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., when 20-year-old Adam Lanza shot and killed 20 children and six adults.
That tragedy renewed attention on the issue of gun control, but Goldstein said he wasn't expecting to be involved in judging people's competency to carry firearms. Nor were his colleagues who also started receiving requests from the county sheriff.
"It actually surprised us," Goldstein said. Unsure how to handle the requests, the doctors looked for some guidance in the medical literature, and found none.
That eventually led to the new survey, reported in the June 19 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
"We wanted to see what our colleagues around North Carolina are thinking about this," Goldstein said.
His team sent surveys to 600 primary care doctors and psychiatrists in the state, and got responses from 222. Overall, 59 percent said they doubted their ability to judge whether a patient was physically "fit" to carry a gun safely, and 47 percent doubted they could judge a patient's mental fitness.
A full 84 percent said those judgment calls should be made by professionals specifically trained to do so.
Yet, of the doctors who'd gotten requests to do competency evaluations, 79 percent had signed off on them, the study found.
"We were a little surprised by that, and a little worried," Goldstein said.
He stressed that patients given the approval may well have been competent. But the concern is, doctors have no standards to go by.
"This connects to a broader issue: What is the clinician's role in people's Second Amendment rights?" said Jeffrey Swanson, a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Duke University in Durham, N.C.
Swanson, who studies firearm laws and violence prevention, said a doctor can judge whether a patient has any physical health conditions.
"But how do they judge whether a physical infirmity prevents the safe handling of a gun?" Swanson said.
And judging mental competency, he added, gets even trickier. It's notoriously difficult for even trained psychiatrists to predict whether an individual with mental health problems poses a danger to others, Swanson noted.
A primary care doctor, he said, "shouldn't be asked to opine on who's going to become violent."
Both Swanson and Goldstein said guidelines -- including standard definitions of mental and physical competence -- are needed.
But just who would formulate those guidelines is unclear. The American Medical Association and American College of Physicians -- two national groups representing doctors -- declined to comment on the survey.
There are also issues beyond technical definitions of competency. In the survey, 59 percent of doctors worried that refusing to sign off on a request would "cause problems in the doctor-patient relationship."
Some doctors may worry about legal problems, too, Swanson noted. If, for example, someone deemed competent kills or injures another person, could the doctor be held liable?
"If over 20 percent of the doctors in this survey have been asked to sign competency permits, then it's a big issue," Goldstein said. "But it's an issue that most people are probably unaware of. We hope this study can inform a conversation."

Just did the most amazing shoot for a very talented accessory designer. Elizabeth Perry Collections has the most unique range of stuff I've seen in a long time. Burlesque-y sequined headpieces in colors both neon and neutral, frayed fabric flowers, textural and delicate jewelry, lushly patterned headwraps…. Liz is SO talented! Everything about this shoot was impeccable. The wardrobe provided by Shop Mapel made my hate my own closets contents, and Liz's desire to go bright or go home created a really interesting tie-in between all of the crazy elements. I'd wear any of this.

Web-based attorneys have gone mainstream, with pitches aimed at the cost-conscious. And while critics question whether their advice hits the mark, they concede the online model can work in some relatively simple situations.
Uncertainty about the impact of the presidential election has sent Americans searching for legal advice about everything from green-card sponsorship rules to possible changes to the estate tax. To the surprise of many in the legal establishment, a growing number of those help-seekers are getting their guidance online.
In recent years, Web-based attorneys have gone mainstream, with pitches aimed at the cost-conscious. And while critics question whether their advice hits the mark, they concede the online model can work in some relatively simple situations.
An in-office consultation can cost as much as $1,000 an hour, though rates vary depending on location and a lawyer's area of expertise. Attorneys on San Francisco-based Pearl.com, in contrast, charge an average of $30 to $40 to answer a range of questions, many of which are basic preliminary inquiries (example: "What's the difference between a will and a trust?"). At Avvo.com, based in Seattle, attorneys provide advice at no cost to promote their practices, and the site makes money through advertising and enhanced listings. For the lawyers, the advantages include savings on overhead, and the possibility of luring more substantial business from customers satisfied with the short answers.
Perhaps more disconcerting to purists, some leading players aren't exclusively law-focused. Pearl.com, which says its annual revenue now tops $100 million, also offers assistance from computer technicians and relationship counselors. Avvo.com proffers legal help alongside medical and dental advice (legal questions account for about 80% of its traffic).
Solid data on the online-legal field is hard to come by, but supporters and detractors agree the business model is gaining steam. Already, many traditional law firms have extended their practices to the Web, where they offer services like will preparation and document review for lower fees than what they charge in person. DirectLaw, a Florida-based company that provides support to such firms, says it has signed on 250 practices since its inception three years ago. "There are a lot of lawyers experimenting with moving their brands online," says founder Richard Granat.

Online providers emphasize that they are best suited for handling common, straightforward tasks—a simple will or incorporation of a business, for example. As cases get more complex, providers may suggest in-person meetings. But even a partial online answer could help clients cut their overall legal costs, says Andy Kurtzig, chief executive of Pearl. com: "You might be able to get key insights that will cut your appointment time from three hours to less than an hour."
Still, legal experts question whether the insights are all that insightful. Some express concern over the qualifications of online attorneys, particularly on third-party platforms. (The providers say they conduct rigorous background checks.) Others worry that attorneys communicating online might gloss over details that could more easily emerge face to face. "Maybe I'm too much of a fuddy-duddy, but I'm a little nervous about some of these services," says David Lat, an attorney and founder of the Above the Law legal blog.
Some clients, at least, seem satisfied. Retired marketing executive Donna Sasse recently had a question relating to her late mother-in-law's estate—and says she got a helpful answer through Pearl.com. Sasse pays $99 for a monthly plan that gives her unlimited legal, medical and other advice. "Normally," she says, "an attorney would cost me $250 an hour."

Swiss Challenge to the America's Cup 2003.
UBS forms a partnership with Swiss Challenge.
The Swiss Challenge for the America's Cup and UBS have just signed an important partnership contract. UBS will become one of the main partners of Swiss Challenge.
"We are enthusiastic about taking on the challenge with UBS," stated Michel Bonnefous, Executive Director of the Swiss Challenge. "The manifestation of this first principal partner confirms the serious nature of the work carried out to this point and establishes the credibility of our Challenge. We are convinced that this partnership will be profitable."
Marcel Ospel, UBS CEO announced, "Sailing of this caliber calls for perfect interplay between strategy, tactics, stamina, speed and mastery of state-of-the-art technology. These key factors, implemented by a highly motivated team, are what carry a racing yacht to success. In global finance business, they also decide who can sail harder to the wind."
After extensive evaluation of the most prominent sports at this time, UBS decided to become partner of Swiss Challenge as a result of the perfect symbiosis between its brand values and attributes and those of Sailing and Swiss Challenge in particular.
The America's Cup is the oldest sports trophy of modern times. Most importantly, it is the most prestigious Sailing competition, with a history going back 150 years. The regatta is unique in that the winner not only wins the coveted trophy, but also earns the right and the honour to organise the following edition. This explains why the competition is currently staged in New Zealand. New Zealanders took the Cup in 1995 in San Diego, which enabled them to organize the following edition in the Auckland Bay. They won again last year when they were up against the Italians of Prada syndicate. In the 2003 edition, the New Zealander Defender and the winner of the Louis Vuitton Cup will confront each other.
The Swiss Challenge for the America Cup was created by Ernesto Bertarelli with the aim of contesting the next edition of this prestigious event under the flag of the "Société Nautique de Genève". His objective is to go all out to take the America's Cup in February 2003, bringing it back to Europe for the first time in its history. In hopes of achieving this goal, an international team has been made up of top specialists. Russell Coutts, the skipper, won the last two editions of the America's Cup. Because of Coutts and his supporting team, Swiss Challenge will be among the contenders for the victory of the 31st edition of the America's Cup.

A Pennsylvania teenager with a metal detector has stumbled across a 1962 high school class ring and returned it to its owner.
The Centre Daily Times reports 19-year-old Robert Nese says he was searching the ground behind Lemont Elementary School when he made the discovery recently. He found the gold State College Area High School ring buried 8 inches below the grass, with the initials DLT inside the band.
He tracked down a yearbook and found two people with matching initials. On his second try, he found that Donna Tressler had lost the ring playing softball 52 years ago.
She says she had searched the grounds for the ring for years and is floored by Nese's honesty and hard work at finding her.

Weekend Sewing-- rainbows and scrap busting
I'm sure if you hang out on flickr or read other quilt blogs, you've seen the awesome granny square quilts that are popping up everywhere. I love them! They use scraps! Perfect! I decided I'd go all out and make a twin sized quilt for Claire out of the blocks. So on Saturday morning I set about cutting 2.5" squares. I'm embarassed to say that I cut only eight before I thought I might go crazy. There are 25 of those squares required for each 9" block.
Enter in the huge, scrappy, rainbow log cabin.
I started with a big piece of Heather Ross blue ponies (one of Claire's favorites) and worked my way out with green, yellow, orange, red, and purple logs.
I'll admit that I thought it was really ugly when I first started. The different shades of green clashed badly. But I kept going. And now I love it. The only thing I wish I had done differently would be to make the blue starting block more scrappy. It measures 68 by 88 inches, just right for a twin size bed.
Of course this quilt top didn't solve my scrap problems. In fact, it may have made it worse. They're covering the sewing room! Whoops. Time to go do some clean up.

The first thing I thought when I saw that those granny squares require 2.5" squares was 'if I used 5" charms, those blocks could get really big really fast!' Not that I've gone past the thought stage.
I do love this scrappy quilt. There might be hope for me and my scraps yet....

Thanks for including your story about the stalled granny square project =). Keeping it real! The quilt you ended up with is definitely a beauty.
