CC Regional Park "green" Nature Center opened
By Curtis Riggs | March 25, 2009
Facility to enhance desert experience
CAVE CREEK – With the sun baking the saguaros and equestrians riding in the background Maricopa County officials opened the new environmentally sensitive Nature Center at Cave Creek Regional Park last week in front of 175 enthusiastic nature lovers.
The mission behind the 4,000-square-foot, $1.1-million facility is to help locals and visitors alike learn more about the Sonoran Desert and its plants and animals. While highlighting the beauty of its pristine desert surroundings the Nature Center fits perfectly into the 3,000-acre park. Its desert roof has native plants growing on it to help insulate the building and the exterior is muted desert tones. Solar energy powers the Nature Center, which includes an outdoor amphitheater for wildlife watching and star gazing. A star gazing event will take place at the center, 32nd Street north of Carefree Highway, on May 1.
The Nature Center at Cave Creek Regional Park, which will soon be linked to the Spur Cross Ranch Conservation Area by ongoing preservation efforts, is one of three "green" Nature Centers built at Maricopa County parks in the past year.
"We are excited about the opportunities this facility presents," Maricopa County Parks Director R.J. Cardin said at last week's local opening.
Cave Creek Mayor Vincent Francia told the crowd, which included many Cave Creek park docents and volunteers; he knew he was in the right place for the opening when he saw several people in the crowd wearing hiking boots.
"You can tell they are in touch with the desert behind us," he said. He commented the new center will enhance both the Cave Creek park and Spur Cross experiences. "There is no better way to appreciate the fragile desert than to be in it."
Cave Creek Regional Park Supervisor Amy Ford hopes the new center helps local residents to get better acquainted with the park and all of the opportunities it presents. The classroom/meeting space at the center will be available for use by the public.

Vet P.O.V. To Vick after 60 Minutes
"I don't know how many times I have to say it: It was wrong...I didn't step up. I wasn't a leader."
If I had my druthers, you'd never stop saying it. Your hell would be akin to Tantalus's: a $130 million contract dangles above your head while the snarling pits you killed lick at your heels for eternity.
As it is, you got off easy. And you don't seem to get that, given your impatience with the notion that you still have to explain yourself. Leavenworth was a cake walk for you compared to what it would've been for the rest of us. Admit it.
"I deserved to lose [the $130 million]."
Sure you did. Thanks for the acknowledgement. Yet the obvious implication is that you now deserve another shot at the bounty.
Because now that you've done your time and enjoyed the humane benefits of American bankruptcy, you're in touch with your "higher power." Because now you've got a platform from which to urge kids to go kiss their animals goodnight instead of stringing 'em up from on high or poking them with a high-voltage prod.
As if you could possibly learn to love animals after living in prison for 18 months. As if we would believe you when you channel your high-priced PR handlers' scripted mea culpas. Maybe some will, but most of us thinking folk won't. Not while we also have to swallow your contention that "football means nothing" to you. Puh-lease. We all know exactly what it means to you.
Jail and bankruptcy were a blessing. I believe you. It gave you and your people a place from which to start afresh. We should all be so lucky to have the HSUS's media-savvy Wayne Pacelle (for shame!) and uber-Christian Tony Dungy on our side after a fall––not to mention the NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles.
It all comes down to this, Vick: Some of us will believe you. And some of us will never be swayed by what your fame and future fortunes mean to you, your family, to football or to the minions of children who perchance might be impressed by your love-a-pet, dog-and-pony show. Either way, you don't deserve another shot. Not yet. 2007 might seem a lifetime away for you, but it's too fresh for memories like mine. You haven't suffered nearly enough for what you did.
And there's the rub. For most of middle America, your cruel trasgressions may have shocked them out of a profound torpor on the subject of dogfighting. And for that, I thank you. Yet it hasn't changed the reality: crimes against animals––no matter how cruel or how numerous––don't merit more than a brief stint in prison and a price proportionate to the size of your bank account. But then, you already knew that.
While Wayne Pacelle and his HSUS may feel righteous and just as they trade on your downfall, your fame and your career's holy resurrection, the rest of us (i.e., those who have nothing to gain from your name) know better. For my part, I'll consider you well and rehabilitated only after you've paid some serious time for your offenses.
When will that be? I'll confess I'm kind of iffy on that one. But I can promise you it won't be one second before the very last animal you tortured is 100% recovered. Considering that most of them are underground, you may have to prove you can resurrect more than your career to get me to come around to your way of seeing things.

There are more twists and turns in All the BROWN tree than in my spanx on a good day. I have over 600 pages of the twisted tree. Here is the simplest form of history of BROWN genealogy.
It is complicated, so we will start slow. Yes, there are, many more wives and tree branches but let's get started with some facts. Grody announced on the show that there was no guidebook to polygamist marriages. (Insert confused face here) These are just the simple facts, albeit, very important to KODY'S history. Not decided what all I will disclose otherwise. They act so dang stupid it amazes me. Sometimes I wonder if just by studying, we all know more than they do. Remember when he acted so.... DUMB like, oh, we didn't know a thing about polygamy until my dad and mom decided to go into it? Never-mind his grandmother was an ALLRED, let alone even ALL their histories lead to polygamy. Now,let's just leave the good ole ALLRED tree for the season break.... don't give out any spoilers there folks! It's a bit dryer than most posts, but fascinating. since they took the trip, you'd think they'd be bursting with this info.
*Dad: WILLIAM WINN BROWN and GENIELLE TEW (Whose mother was an Allred)
Has been revealed on the show they are Fundamental Mormons, with other wives.
*Grandfather" ALMA TAYLOR BROWN and EDITH WINN
*Gr Gr Grandfather: JOSEPH GURNSEY BROWN and HARRIET MARIA YOUNG.
Here's an interesting tidbit: they were polygamists, and HARRIET MARIA YOUNG was the Dtr. of BRIGHAM YOUNG'S youngest brother, LORENZO. that would make BRIGHAM YOUNG - KODY BROWN's gr gr gr Uncle, and BRIGHAM'S Parents KODY'S gr gr gr gr (another story)
JOSEPH GURNSEY BROWN, eldest son of EBENEZER and ANN WEAVER, was born November 8, 1824, at Dryden, Tompkins Co, New York. His father's family became members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints soon after it was organized....They were forced to endure the persecutions of the early saints and were driven from Nauvoo. EBENEZER joined the Mormon Battalion on June 26, 1846....On December 31. 1851, GURNSEY married 16 year old HARRIET MARIA YOUNG, the only daughter of LORENZO DOW YOUNG. (BRIGHAM'S BROTHER) About five years later, in 1856, GURNSEY along with others was asked to take provisions and meet the belated handcart companies of English saints who were struggling to reach the Valley before winter. These rescuers themselves had nothing easy. A forced drive of 300 to 400 miles across wintry mountains. They crowded their teams day after day looking ahead for the vanguard of walkers but the mountain valleys reached on, snowy and empty, past Echo Canyon on until they saw the shinning Uintah Mountains, and then the Wyoming plains. At Fort Bridger a new storm stopped them. That night of October 20th, Capt Willie and one companion, frostbitten, exhausted and riding two worn out animals, appeared out of the blizzard at fort Bridger. They told the men from Utah, storm or not, if they did not come at once there was no use to come at all.
They broke camp at once and started again. They did not stop again until they reached the Willie Company. The night before the rescuers reached them, nine more had died. The rest had not eaten for 48 hours.
Among those GURNSEY brought back to the Valley were two young ladies, ESTHER BROWN and ELIZABETH WHITE. BRIGHAM YOUNG had asked the settlers to open their homes and care for these Saints. So to his home he brought ESTHER. His wife, HARRIET took her in with her warm friendly way, caring for her until she again blossomed out in all her loveliness. On January 18, 1857, GURNSEY married ESTHER BROWN. On March 22, 1857, JOSEPH GURNSEY took his third wife, LOVINA MANHARD.
GURNSEY was called on a mission to England in 1864 where he served for nearly three years without purse or script, leaving three wives with children. Soon after his return, President BRIGHAM YOUNG called GURNSEY and his family to assist with the colonization of Moapa Valley, Nevada, known as the "Muddy Mission". In the fall of 1867 GURNSEY and HARRIET and their eight children ranging in age from 14 years to 8 months, made the journey to help settle the town of St. Joseph. Here they lost their baby daughter, Julliet, May 20, 1868.
This area was at that time a part of the territory of Deseret as mapped out by the early church leaders and was a part of Kane County, later Rio Virgin Co. A warehouse had been built on the Colorado River at a point known as Call's Landing. It was intended that the church would bring converts from Europe by steamships through the Gulf of Mexico and up the Colorado River and unload them at this point to continue the journey overland. The towns on the Muddy would serve as way stations where emigrants could rest and procure provisions for the rest of the journey.
The Muddy Mission proved to be unsuccessful, so far as colonization of that area at that time was concerned, and due to excessive taxes, extreme heat, shortage of water and other problems, the saints were released from the mission and were free to return to their former homes if they wished to. However, President YOUNG strongly urged them to remain in the southern Utah area and help re-settle the townsites that had been abandoned during the Indian troubles in the 1860's. GURNSEY brought LOVINA and her children, John, Delia and Will, to St. Joseph in the fall of 1870 while ESTHER and her children remained in Draper.
LOVINA'S son JOHN gives an interesting account of their experiences while in St. Joseph. He said when they arrived Aunt HARRIET and her seven children were living in a two-room adobe house with a dirt floor and a flag roof. The roof was made from cattails, ten to twelve feet tall, cut down in the swamps, tied in bundles about six inches in diameter and tied to the stringers and weighted down, making a water-tight roof. They had a chicken coop made of mesquite roots dug from the farm land. They used these roots for fuel also, as there was no timber closer than seventy miles and no willows for thirty miles. Flour was hauled from Draper; but the "muddy" soil was rich and the climate so mild that good gardens could be grown; sweet potatoes as large as small pumpkins and his father said in jest that the watermelons grew so fast they wore the vines out dragging them along.
When the settlers were released from their missions, the BROWNS along with other Muddyites, started for Long Valley. GURNSEY left LOVINA in the town of Washington, Washington County, and he and HARRIET and their family moved on. Along the way they met HARRIET'S brother, JOHN R. YOUNG. He persuaded GURNSEY to go to Kanab, and they arrived there in 1871 and lived in a tent bought from Johnson's Army. LOVINA and family were brought out later in the spring.
In Kanab the BROWNS secured two lots by squatting on them and they cultivated another 30 acres of land and built a two-room house with a room for each wife. Getting goods into the Kanab area was very difficult because of geographical difficulties and consequently most of the food and dry goods had to be produced by themselves. Sugar was almost unknown to them for several years; but good molasses was made from sugar cane that grew well here. GURNSEY set up the first sorgum mill in the northeast part of town. He planted orchards with all kinds of fruit trees, vines, berries, and shrubbery, etc. The first year he lived in Kanab he planted one acre of alfalfa and it made pig and chicken feed. He also raised garden vegetables of all kinds and raised potatoes in the Kanab Canyon and at what he called Cottonwood Canyon, a nice little tract of land about twelve miles west of Kanab. He had a few acres of meadow land in the Kanab Canyon he could mow several tons of wild hay and the country was just a mat of all kinds of wild grasses and herbs, so much so it was not necessary to have but a few-tons of hay.
It was necessary to built not only dams and canals, but roads and trails in order to get in and out of the country. The people would arrange what they called road gangs and ditch gangs and go out and build roads leading to Long Valley where hundreds of people who left the Muddy Mission had settled. The only grist mill was at Glendale, some twenty-seven miles over a set of rolling hills and washes, with sand so deep for a distance of thirteen miles that it would take four horses of good quality to move one ton of anything as the wagon wheels would sink into the sand from four to eight inches.
He managed to get along well for several years. President BRIGHAM YOUNG paid us a visit and he told the people to come out of the Kanab Canyon and farm the Valley just south of the town. It was a large fertile valley of very choice land. He told us to open the canyon and turn out cattle in it and let them tramp the water out of the meadows and swamps. He predicted that in a short time we would have a flood that would come down the canyon and wash it down to bedrock. We would build a canal around the town and have water to irrigate the town and to reservoir the water. We would be able to irrigate all the land in the valley and raise plenty of everything we would need in the shape of vegetables and cereals and hay.
It was a fact, for the flood came and washed out the sand and swamps and cleaned the canyon out so that the water increased in quantity sufficient to successfully irrigate some 1600 acres of land. Afterwards we had another large flood which tore out sand and rocks and mud down to a lower bedrock and increased the water still more. We have taken up all the land available and have plenty of spring water to irrigate all the land. It will produce good crops of hay and some hardy vegetables such as corn and potatoes.
The BROWNS belonged to the United Order in Kanab as long as it lasted. While in Kanab each of the two wives added three more children to the family. Esther passed away April 21, 1881.
In the 1880's during the raid in which the government officials were confiscating church cattle and other property, GURNSEY was appointed to take over the church cattle and sheep at Pipe Springs and run them as his own. So HARRIET and the children lived at Pipe Springs for several years and LOVINA remained in Kanab. The Indians were hostile at this time and even though they lived in the fort, at Pipe Springs, they were in constant danger.
In 1894 GURNSEY bought a large red brick home in the northeast part of town. It had been built by Frank Rider and owned for a few years by Henry Bowman. The BROWN'S ran a hotel in the home with HARRIET and the girls providing meals and taking care of the rooms and the men folk taking care of the teams in the large barn and corral on the lot.
During all the years from 1870, Joseph Gurnsey Brown was a strong factor in leading out with the people and assisting in the general development of the whole country. He held responsible positions, being rather a religious man, not too much so as to hamper or hinder him from leading out in any honorable thing to be done. He was one of the very hardy, and what is called the rough-and-ready hut not the boisterous type. He was a level-headed, good, honest man; a man who did everything possible to assist his neighbor, either in or out of trouble, and to pay his honest obligations. He was an American and believed in giving his undivided support to his country and the President of the United States, whether or not he belonged to his party.
Joseph Gurnsey served in the Bishopric of the ward for several years and was always found willing to serve when the call came from the authorities. He also served well in civic positions as well, and in matters pertaining to colonization. Joseph Gurnsey Brown died of pneumonia, January 17, 1907, at Kanab, Kane County, Utah, at the age of 83. He even has his own wiki spot: http://wiki.hanksplace.net/index.php/Joseph_Gurnsey_Brown
History - HARRIET was the fourth child LORENZO DOW YOUNG and PERSIS GOODALL, both of New York State. LORENZO was the youngest brother of BRIGHAM YOUNG.
From her diary we learn that her parents were among the first to join the Restored Church and gather to Kirtland, Ohio, which was then the Headquarters of the Church. From Kirtland they moved to Missouri (Far West) and were driven from there to Illinois. "I saw the Prophet many times and remember sitting on his knee more than once as a child ... he loved children. When we lived with them in one room in Missouri, I saw him ruffle brother John's hair and give him some glorious promises. They were all fulfilled."
On October 1, 1838, Maria's father was arrested with 29 others and all were sentenced to death for their part in the Battle of Crooked River. Only because their guards softened toward them were they able to escape at night.
The family moved to Quincy, Illinois, then to a place near Carthage and finally, in the fall of 1843 to Nauvoo.
"Mother and we younger children were in Nauvoo when the Prophet and Hyrum were killed in Carthage Jail by the mob. I can still sense and feel the spirit of sadness that was over the whole place at that time. I wanted to take my brother John and go to the Mansion House, about a mile away, to see them while they lay in state, but mother was not able to go and would not let us out of her sight because of the threats of the mobs."
HARRIET crossed the plains in the first emigration company on the Emigration Fund Plan with Bishop Hunter in charge. "Mother, Aunt Fanny, Nancy Green, a cousin, and myself came with the Richards family. We started July 5th . . . and arrived in Salt Lake Valley the 28th of September 1850 with no trouble to speak of enroute."
"When I first saw the Valley it looked grand to me because I saw the whole valley with majestic mountains rising all around and the blue lake in the distance and I knew that here was home and rest."
"When the University of Deseret (called the Parent School) met for its second term in the Council House, I started to School, but after a couple of months, I stopped and went to work for Aunt Fannie Young to help her and learn dressmaking. While there I met JOSEPH GURNSEY BROWN, and we were married on the last day of the year, Dec. 31, 1851 by (President) BRIGHAM YOUNG at the home of Feramorz Little."
HARRIET was just seventeen, a small beautiful girl with her hair in ringlets. In Draper, her first child, Homer Achilles, was born on October 25, 1853, followed December 23, 1855 by Persis Ann.
In 1856 GURNSEY was asked along with others to meet the belated handcart and wagon companies of English Saints struggling to get to the Valley before winter. As he neared the company he picked up two English girls walking ahead, LIZZIE WHITE and ESTHER BROWN. Since they had no relatives in America he took them to his home in Draper for the winter. On January 18, 1857 he made ESTHER his second wife. On March 22, 1857 HARRIET'S husband married a third wife, LOVINA MANHARD.
HARRIET was among others celebrating the 24th of July in the Big Cottonwood Canyon in 1857 when word was brought that Johnson's Army was coming. "My what excitement this caused. President YOUNG quieted the people down and told them to go to camp and get ready to start back to the City early next morning. He said he intended to be the last to leave in order to see that all were safely on their way."
JOSEPH GURNSEY served a mission (2 1/2-3 years without purse or script) in England, leaving his wives and a dozen children in the Lord's hands. When he came home in 1867 BRIGHAM YOUNG asked him to take HARRIET and go to the "Muddy Mission" promising that HARRIET'S health would improve. The "Muddy," a desolate area west of Washington County at the mouth of the Muddy River was a test of endurance and strength. It was so hot, HARRIET said, that the milk soured before the cream could rise.
In May of 1870 baby Juliette died. In the fall GURNSEY brought LOVINA down to the Muddy; ESTHERr remained in Draper. In 1871 they were released from the "Muddy Mission" when a survey disclosed the Muddy, an area now known as Moapa Valley, to be in Nevada, and Nevada taxes were impossible to pay.
They were persuaded by Harriet's brother, JOHN R. YOUNG, to settle in Kanab where they arrived in February 1871. LOVINA and her children joined them and the two families lived in a tent until a two-room adobe house could be built, with one room for each wife. Later another house was built for LOVINA. HARRIET gave $300, which she had been willed, to GURNSEY to buy windows and hardware for LOVINA'S home.
In Kanab, HARRIET had three more children. She raised ten of her eleven children to adults, but buried four of her five sons in early manhood. When ESTHER died in Draper in 1881 her oldest married daughter, Lettie (Celestia) cared for her baby sister, Harriet Luetta, until she was 14 years old when she joined the other three children, Isaac O., James Arthur, and Rose Anna. Harriet loved and cared for them as for her own.
Sorrow came to GURNSEY and HARRIET on March 30. 1886. Their oldest son, Homer Achilles, still unmarried, died of pneumonia at the age of 33. The second son, Joseph Gurnsey Jr., died of consumption July 23, 1887, leaving his wife Clara Little, and two children, Joseph Gurnsey III and Curtie. Clara later married his brother, Ebenezer. On February 13, 1893 another son, Lorenzo Young, died after a long illness. He left a wife, Elizabeth Haycock, and four children. Harriet related that after her third son, Lorenzo, died a cloud hung over her and she was constantly apprehensive. Less than a month later her youngest son, Feramorz Little, only 21, was fatally injured during a horse race. She said, "Well it has happened, now I can rest."
In 1894 GURNSEY bought HARRIET a large red brick home built by John Rider. The thing HARRIET said that, attracted her most about the house was the large deep basement with rock walls, white-washed interior, and dirt floors that could be wet down each morning making a cold place to keep milk and butter and other foods.
Persis Ann and her children came to live in the home to care for JOSEPH GURNSEY and HARRIET in their old age. GURNSEY died January 7, 1907 and Persis Ann, after a short siege of pnumonia was buried June 12,1919. Then Harriet's daughter, Angeline, passed away May 24, 1924. This was another hard blow. Her two grandsons, Gurnsey Spencer and Homer Spencer and their wives were still in the home. Harriet moved her things into a large east bedroom where she spent her time sewing, reading, and visiting with friends and relatives, coming out for meals and to visit with her grandchildren and great grandchildren.
HARRIET lived a very busy life. Even in her last years he made her own dresses and ironed them herself. She hemmed Temple veils, made quilts, some when she was 90 and 91 years old. She loved to read and wrote many letters At age 83 Harriet read Redpath's History of the World, volume by volume, and enjoyed it all.
There was in her life a perfect blending of all the graces and virtues. Complete honesty and sincerity, coupled with a charming manner - a good companion for a quiet chat; the life of the party in a social gathering; a gracious manner that made people love to do things for her and with her; pride, which kept her always well dressed, perfectly groomed, and as she would tell you in confidence, kept her from putting on weight. She was a small woman with a head of beautiful wavy hair.
There was a great love between Harriet and Joseph Gurnsey. Joseph E. Robinson, her son-in-law, wrote, "How Grandmother loved Grandfather Brown. To her he was the Beau Brummell among men. One day she came to the store and asked, "Joseph have you any good men's shirts?" I thought to tease her and said, "You mean men's good shirts, don't you, Mother?" I'll never forget how she replied. "No! I mean GOOD MEN'S shirts, for I want one for Gurnsey and he is the best man I know."
Harriet said in closing her record, "I have had the honor of knowing all the Presidents of the Church from Joseph Smith to Heber J. Grant, and many other leading men and women, and now that I have lived to a good old age and feel that my work is about done, I look back and think that I would not care to live it over for I might not do so well as I have done."
*Gr Gr Gr grandfather EBENEZER BROWN and ANN WEAVER.
Poligamists. fought in the Battalion with Allreds.
*Helped build the Kirtland Temple and experienced the Far West War.
EBENEZER BROWN was born 6 December 1802 in Herkimer County, New York, the son of WILLIAM BROWN and HANNAH SWEET. We do not know anything of his early life, but on 23 July 1823 he married ANN WEAVER, and they had four children. Joseph Guernsey born 8 November 1824 in New York, Harriet born 6 February 1827, Norman born 6 February 1830, and John Weaver born 17 June 1837 at Peru, LaSalle County, Illinois. We find the family living in Illinois at the time their youngest child was born. The next August they moved to Far West, Caldwell County, Missouri, arriving in September. The saints who reached Missouri were so brutally treated and suffered privation, hardships and some of them sickness and death. Ann Weaver Brown, the mother in this family, died 24 June 1842 at Quincey, Illinois, and Ebenezer was left a widower with four young children.
When the dispossessed saints returned from Missouri to Illinois, most of them crossing the river went northward to Commerce (later Nauvoo), but the Brown and Draper families went south and settled near Pleasantville, Illinois, in the wide Mississippi River bottom. It was a place of beauty and great fertility. The surrounding country lush with corn and fruit and timber and one can hardly suppress regret that they ever had to leave there. They were fast becoming economically independent, and they enjoyed the full measure of religious liberty. Their Non-Mormon neighbors were impressed with their industry, character and religion.
Ebenezer was good friends with William Draper and his sister Phoebe Draper Palmer, a widow with six or seven (6)children. Phoebe had received a patriarchal blessing from Joseph Smith Sr., and had been promised if she was faithful and wise she would be blessed with a companion who would be a man of God and that she would be able to bring up her family right, that she would have good happy days. She kept the faith and was wise and the blessing and promise was fulfilled in Ebenezer Brown, a righteous and kindly man who gave her much and to whom she returned the full measure of her devotion. Ebenezer and Phoebe were married 1842, and she, no doubt, felt her patriarchal blessing had been fulfilled. There were now ten children in this combined family, her youngest child was eight while his youngest was five.
What their lives would have been had they been permitted to remain in Pleasantville can only be surmised, but it is almost certain that they would not have been subjected to the trials and hardships that beset them and their children for more than a century. In the very year that Ebenezer and Phoebe joined forces the church found itself in deep difficulties in Hancock County, Illinois, where Nauvoo was located. Mob hostility had grown so fierce that Joseph Smith sent out a call to all saints in outlying counties to break up their settlements and move in to Hancock County. The Draper and Brown families were in Pike County, where hostility had not yet developed, but they could not ignore the call to their leader. Ebenezer and Phoebe moved directly tn Nauvoo where they lived until about 1844. There they had two more years enjoying the good will of the Non-Mormons in the neighborhood, but tensions built up at Nauvoo to an alarming extent. Hostility against the leaders of the church grew until it culminated in the assassination of the founder of the church and his brother Hyrum.
After this, it became manifest that the Mormons would have to leave the state of Illinois.. In 1846 Nauvoo was abandoned under bloody and miserable circumstances know to all. The whole Church membership began to move wet-ward. On their way through Iowa they learned through BRIGHAM YOUNG and HEBER C. KIMBALL who were returning to Nauvoo after establishing camps on the Missouri River that Captain JAMES ALLEN of the United States Army had requested the saints to furnish 500 able-bodied men to march against Mexico with an army under the command of Colonel STEPHEN L. KEARNY. This call seems to have been resented until advice was given that the formation of a battalion for service in Mexico which at the same time would help to get the saints to their destination on pay from the government.
To fully understand the heroism and suffering of the battalion, they had just been forcibly ejected from their homes in Illinois and were plunging into the wilderness almost empty handed. They were short both on clothing and food and were poorly prepared for military service. After the recruiting and enlistment, a gala farewell party was held for the departing recruits in a large bowery at Council Point, a trading post on the river, and the next morning 16 July 1846 a march began which made history. EBENEZER and PHOEBE were part of the enlisted personnel. EBENEZER was given the rank of sergeant in Company A., and PHOEBE was given the title of laundress. The first leg of their march was between Council Bluffs in Iowa and Fort Leavenworth in Kansas. They marched southward along the river in temperatures exceeding 100 degrees for about 200 miles. It took them 11 days to reach Fort Leavenworth where they were uniformed, armed, and given a 12 day rest. Already the ordeal had began to tell. Many of the men were sick with chills and fever and even the officers did not escape. Captain ALLEN died 23 July 1846.
On 12 August 1846 the first attachment left Fort Leavenworth headed for the Arkansas River which flows southeasterly through Kansas. They reached the river 11 September 1846 and by this time it was obvious that the sick soldiers would have to be dropped. The battalion then left the river and struck Out southwesterly toward Santa Fe. Food supplies were almost exhausted and the soldiers were put on two-thirds ration. Good water was almost non-existent over this stretch and they were reduced to drinking brackish water in whatever slough or mud hole they could find it. Hunger and dysentery began to enfeeble the men until they could hardly respond to call for guard duty at night. The drugs administered to them often within abuse seemed to have a worse effect than the disease and exhaustion from which they suffered. It was, therefore, a great relief when they reached Santa Fe 9 October 1846 where they were given a ten day rest. They were allowed to rest and recuperate at Santa Fe until the 19 October when the battalion began the last and worst 1,100 miles of its appalling march. The terrain was entirely unfamiliar even to the officers. Forage was scarce for the animals and food was just as lacking for the men. By November some of the teams died from pure exhaustion and poor and skinny as they were they were eaten by the men. There were 56 who were sent back to Pueblo more than 300 miles away.
The main body of the battalion marched on. Their objective was Tucson in southern Arizona. After crossing the Rio Grande River, they entered barren and rough terrain. Their food supplies were exhausted. If an oxen died, they ate it including the hide which they diced and boiled for soup. They also took the sheep pelts from under their saddles and roasted them for food. They often marched all day without water, and some of them died of thirst. Sometimes they sunk wells as much as 300 feet in search of water.
Finally they reached the Gila River which they followed to its confluence with the San Pedro flowing into it from the south. In this area there were extensive mesquite thickets full of wild cattle. Here at last was food in abundance (meat that is) if they could get it. The bulls, however, charged the men on sight and sent them scattering. Not until they devised some strategy could they get meat. Even then it took volleys of musket balls to stop a ferocious bull. In due time they had meat in quantity, but they had nothing to go with it not even salt. Even so this fare enabled them to reach Tucson where they had a brush (mostly conversational) with a Mexican garrison which was subdued without difficulty. Here they rested, got fresh supplies and hobbled on into the western desert. All the way from Tucson to the confluence of the Gila and Colorado Rivers the going was especially rough. Water holes were as much as 75 miles apart. It was cactus country. Their uniforms were in tatters and their shoes were worn out, so marching was something less than pleasant.
When the battalion reached the neighborhood of present day Yuma, they encountered large numbers of Pima Indians whom the Mexicans had sought to incite to attack the battalion without avail. On the contrary they had in their possession a store of goods and several mules. They gladly turned the goods and animals over and also sold the soldiers some of their own supplies. Refreshed again they began their last adventure through the desert of the Imperial Valley. Lack of shoes was their greatest handicap which they tried to overcome by making them from rawhide, but they were not skillful as shoemakers and the hides drying wrinkled in hard convolutions that were harder on the feet than cactus so they hobbled on as best they could until 29 January 1847 when they reached San Diego on the Pacific Ocean.
The next day their commander addressed them and congratulated the battalion on its safe arrival on the shores of the Pacific Ocean and the conclusion of its march of over 2,000 miles. History may be searched in vain for an equal march of infantry; nine-tenths of it through a wilderness where nothing but savages and wild beasts were found, or deserts where for want of water there is no living creature. There with almost hopeless labor we have dug deep walls which the future travelers will enjoy. With crowbar and pickax we have worked our way over mountains and hewed a passage through a chasm of living rock. Thus marching half naked and half fed and living upon wild animals (without salt to season your substance of fresh meat) we have discovered and made a road of value to our country.
He ended his speech by saying that there was work yet to be done and as EBENEZER and PHOEBE had yet more than 1,000 miles of mountain and desert terrain to travel before they could rejoin their families in Utah and as they had no money with which to buy outfits or supplies to travel, they re-enlisted and served in the Army until 14 March 1848 when they were mustered out with renewed courage and a little money to start them on their way to Utah. They traveled northward over an inland route until they reached Sutter's Fort held by a German-Swiss citizen eager to make improvements on his Spanish land grant so that he could qualify to hold it under his new sovereign the United States of America. To develop it, he needed laborers and they were grateful for the opportunity to earn some money so they went to work. Early in 1848 Sutter sent a group of whites and Indians to construct a sawmill on the American River 24 January 1848. EBENEZER and PHOEBE were among the first to enjoy its fruits. They might have become wealthy Californians had they not been bound to the cause of establishing a homeland for the Church to which they were so strongly attached. BRIGHAM YOUNG feared the disintegration of his people if they followed the lure of gold so in 1849 he called the battalion members home. They obeyed. PHOEBE and EBENEZER reached Salt Lake in the fall of the year, and though they crossed the rugged Sierra Nevada Mountains, the forbidding Carson Sinks, and the Great American Desert over which but few white men had ever passed and where the bones of some who had tried to pass lay bleached in the sun,..they left no record of their ordeal. They had made it to Zion and that was enough. They had a happy reunion with their children in the fall of 1849.
Salt Lake City was then about two and a half years old, but it was filled with immigrants seeking places to build their homes. EBENEZER and PHOEBE, no doubt, had an advantage; they were fresh from the gold fields and, no doubt, had gold in their pockets. Their children whom they had left on the Missouri River with Ebenezer's oldest daughter: Harriet, and her husband had now reached the valley and together they began to plan a new life. Ebenezer with his three sons, Joseph, Norman, and John set out to find a new and unclaimed land because the land around the city had already been distributed among the first pioneers. Together they discovered unoccupied land and water in a large cove in the south-east corner of the Salt Lake valley through which the water from four springs ran which they forthwith appropriated and began immediately to build a cabin and to prepare for crops to be planted in the spring. The waters of the springs were joined and thereafter were known as South Willow Creek.
Later they set to work building log cabins preparatory to bringing other members of the family in. By the spring of 1850, Ebenezer was ready to bring Phoebe down from Salt Lake to help build a permanent home. He felt too that there was ample room for more people at South Willow Creek than his and Phoebe's immediate families, so it appears they asked all the Drapers they knew to join them. Other people were soon attracted to this settlement. By 1852, the community on South Willow Creek had grown to the extent that the church provided it with ecclesiastical government and the name of the community was changed to Draper. Phoebe was the first mistress and also conducted a day nursery for young children.
In the meantime Ebenezer and his sons had been profitably employed. Be-ginning in 1849 they began establishing a cattle business. They cannily foresaw a good market for meat among the saints and particularly a cash market in the hordes of immigrants beginning to pass through Utah on the way to California.
By 1853 Ebenezer was a man of substance and as such was able to care for some of the many unmarried women in the church. At any rate in that year he married Samantha Pulsipher, and in 1854 he married Mary Elizabeth Wright, and had a sizeable family by each.
From John W. Brown's Diary we read: In May 1856 Ebenezer and family was called on a mission to Carson Valley. We traveled 16 miles and stopped at Mill Creek for the night. Tuesday we spent most of the day in Salt Lake ate dinner with our aged brother Kimball and left the city that night. We started each morning about 8 or 9 o'clock and traveled between 15 and 20 miles a day. The weather was fairly good and feed and water were good most of the way. We made stops at the Hot Springs, Kaysville, Weber, Ogden Hole, North Willow Creek and Box Elder City, where we found a small company waiting for us. On May 11th the camp was organized with Ebenezer Brown as Captain. We mustered 23 able-bodied men and 13 wagons. May 12th the camp took up the line of march. We have passed all the settlements, our mountain homes have passed from our view, and we are wending our way towards a lovelier country, a milder climate, but to a colder-hearted people.
We started each day between 8 or 9 o'clock and made about 15 miles a day; some days we made better time, other days travel was slower as the roads were in poor conditions, being sandy, rough and hilly. We were blessed in many ways; our teams were strengthened, and we met with few accidents worthy of notice. We met a few Indians at the Pilot Springs and after friendly greetings and exchanges made we continued on our way making stops at Blue Springs, Stoney Canyon, Decesher Creek, Goose Creek, Canyon Creek and Humboldt River. The weather was fair except for a few days of wind and bluster. We found feed and water supplies to be fair most of the way. On June 24th we arrived at Carson and pitched our tents in Washeow Valley where a town is located and a number of saints have taken up farms and commenced improvements. It is not known how long Ebenezer remained here, but he probably was back in Utah in 1858 as he wrote his son, John, to go to Carson Valley and collect the money owing him for his improvements. He did not collect it, and had to work to earn money to come home with. John had been on a mission to the Hawaiian Islands.
When Ebenezer took his other two wives Samantha Pulsipher and Mary Elizabeth Wright. Phoebe seems not to have minded this. But Samantha died in 1870 leaving a family of minor children, whereupon Phoebe at the age of seventy-three took the responsibility of raising a third family in addition to discharging her duties as an officer in the Relief Society. She brought them all to maturity, and in the process earned the love and devotion not only of these children, but all of Ebenezer's children.
Ebenezer was the husband of four women and the father of 22 children, 13 sons and 9 daughters. He died 26 January 1878, and was buried 29 January 1878 at Draper, Salt Lake County, Utah. He had fought a good fight, and with thousands of other people like him had lived that calumny and bitter prejudice once so manifest against them died away and in its place came admiration and praised not only for themselves, but for the Church which guided them through.
No road map for being a polygamist family? While I'm a bit feisty, might I add that even Janelle's "no clue" doesn't hold water, considering LDS is based on Joseph Smith. When watching "Big Love"... when Alby started getting messages from the hat...well, let's say it put this mess into perspective for me, and mad me spit my Pepsi out louder than Robyn can slurp.So, just as a quickie to add to yesterday's show, we know that Kody was kin to the Browns, Youngs, and Allreds, some of the most historical families in the roots of the religion.
Since my Family Tree Maker is on my other computer and I threw this together in a few short minutes. Thinking to myself, wouldn't of been wise to have more of a story to tell the kids along the way? How they relate? Makes more sense to fly east then drive west to experience the trails, but, then again, we are talking about the Browns. Seems if Kody had all this information, he serendipitously would be expediting its disclosure to us and of his importance and potential. They actually could of made it interesting.
Talk of Browns for now, we will save the others for later!

I have no qualms about distracting from the discussion. I don't have any shots of Sugita in drag, but there are some interesting shots of Shiraishi with last week's interview on the official site. Such as this one:
Access to all the interviews -- Endou Aya, Shiraishi Minoru, and now Hirano Aya -- is here.

On topic... inspired by kj1980's post about Fukuhara Kaori's potential... I'm kinda excited by the prospect of seeing more young, talented but obscure seiyuus making it big to one day claim the title of the next generation seiyuu queen or something. I mean it's not an everyday chance that you get to watch a young seiyuu gaining fame and popularity to become a household name even to the less-informed fans right as it is happening. And to some fans who have an eye for spotting talent when they are still raw, there ought to be plenty of satisfaction in watching them realize their potential and saying "I knew it!"
Ultimately, these are just common mentality for fandom found in a lot of places especially sports, and it's one that is well founded though it does not necessary applies to everyone. So I guess I speak for myself really, Megu-chan and Hocchan both got popular when I didn't had access to digisubs and the information that is the internet. Personally I like Aya and I think she's a great seiyuu. She can be said to be the first seiyuu sensation (not counting Mizuki Nana because I noticed her only after starting Nanoha A's later than every one else) that I'm able to follow and witness first hand, though when I say follow I'm not even half as dedicated as Kaoru Chujo.

Also being a seiyuu is not that prolific in Japan. Most seiyuu still rides the train and all that, which is something you won't see normal celebrities do. Heck I've ran into Mizuki Nana and Shimizu Ai at different times both at the Shinjuku station just last year, they were dressed quite normally (no sunglasses or big hats etc) and they were not even trying to hide themselves. I went up to Mizuki Nana and greeted her and she was surprised that someone recognized her (let alone a foreigner). Shimizu Ai OTOH even wore lolita which made her stand out even more than the OLs that ran through the station. I think it's safe to say that both of them are at least as popular as Hirano Aya and in fame for longer as well, so if they are okay with it I don't see what makes Hirano Aya any different.
EDIT: I've also ran into Chiba Saeko at a festival in Shibuya (even snapped a picture) and stood next to Kuwashima Houko on the yamanote line, neither even tried to hide their faces with any accessories. So yeah, seiyuu are quite down to earth compared with your "normal" celebrities.

I've translated the Hirano Aya interview from the official site, and posted it on my blog.
Great post from houkoholic. For more info about a seiyuu's life, people should have a look at this post by kj1980 and other posts in the thread in General Anime on The Industry - Lifestyle and Wages. I can't blame Hirano Aya for wanting to be more than just a seiyuu: seiyuus are near the bottom of the entertainment industry pecking order. Aya rode the train to the Suzumiya Haruhi concert in March, apparently without getting bothered.
Hey, houkoholic, how come I never read your great blog before? Stupid me. Even if I disagree with you on Aya in Lucky Star, I know you'll have good reasons. I think this is one of the memorable performances. Though as I mention in the blog piece, I'm not sure Aya agrees. What you say about Aya as a singer is true enough, but Ashita no Prism was just not as good a song as God Knows, either. Or as good as a couple she's done since.
Good to see that Chihara Minori is getting her due as a singer. I remember seeing photos of her doing one-woman street shows with her guitar early last spring.

houkoholic, I just may have to visit Japan and ride the train round the clock if you occasionally run into seiyuu by pure coincidence.
Thanks for the interview reading, Kaoru. Your fandom is nearly unmatched even among those of us who live, eat, and breathe seiyuu news. Somehow didn't see Hirano as the type to read manga, even in her time off. Her thoughts on the part, while not surprising to me, nevertheless show she at least puts some effort into research.

So there is a big announcement coming in May 25th at the Anime Expo website, and the heavy rumour out is that Hirano Aya will be a guest of honor.
It's obvious Bandai is cooking something up with Anime Expo to make it Haruhi weekend.
If the rumour is true, it'll be very interesting to see how Aya reacts to American audiences and fans.

ROTFL @ cardboard. Ahh, Saimoe, those were good times. ^^
Yeah, I can understand seiyuus not making much money. If the animators alone are being payed next to nothing...
Well, at least Hirano's eye looks better now. Good to see.

As for her singing, I'm fairly certain that both Aya and her management is working very hard on improving her appeal. Anisongs are getting a lot of attention lately and is being heavily invested in, not to mention as a seiyuu personal CDs and concerts is where the money is in thus they surely will not overlook this area.
The only female seiyuu that I know of who doesn't seem to use the train much is Tamura Yukari, instead she uses taxis and she tells stories about how she regularly ran into some taxi drivers who refuse to accept her business due to the way she dresses, which they mistaken her working in those kinds of "services", heh.

My own opinion is that Aaya is not a "pro" in the way of Horie Yui, say, who is very flexible and in control of everything she does, but whom I sometimes find too professional, too smooth, and a bit -- not mechanical, but something like that. Not that I don't enjoy her work. Aaya is rough in some ways, and can repeat herself (like with that final emphasis, or with the way Layla's voice drops), but is now doing especially interesting things. Including Konata, which is a style of voice I can't remember hearing before. And especially Layla, for me.
I always have to factor in the fact that I have never lived in Japan to soak up the subtleties of how people really talk and to learn Japanese better. I tend to like the extremes. I'm always disappointed to hear Yahagi Sayuri trying to sound more normal and not giving us her own extravagant voice, the one she used in Karin and Kyoushirou. And I love Sasaki Nozomi's voice. My favorite seiyuu, however, would come from among Kuwashima Houko, Paku Romi, Tanaka Rie, Kawasumi Ayako and Orikasa Fumiko, with Koshimizu Ami, Yahagi Sayuri and Aaya coming up fast. In homage to your avatar, I'll add that I'm enjoying Nana's work in Darker than Black.

I would agree with houkoholic's points if not for the fact that this is just one side of Konata's character and one which I think is getting little screentime thanks to the expanded characterizations that the anime has brought along with it. Quite frankly, my feeling with each passing episode is also that Aya's delivery of Konata seems to be slipping more frequently to a outgoing and at times impish personality, but I think that is logical progression relative to how the anime is portraying her to be one who enjoys the times she spends teasing and having fun with her friends and the otaku life that she lives at other times. I suspect Aya is enjoying this impression of Konata far too much though, hence your impression that she is overdoing it, but other than that, I think she has done well.

Casual japanese involves a lot of noises to express things... the impish noises are not out of line... but I kind of figure Kona spends a little more time in the "Marvin the Android" kind of monotonic voice --- but that should recede as the series progresses and she adapts more of the mannerisms of her 'new' friends. I like the noises... but I also feel like Kagami's VA is hitting her personality a touch more precisely in any given instant.
"Nani to?"
Fortunately, its rare I break out of immersion during an episode to worry about that. Which means they're doing their job --- otherwise my immersion breakages are usually when they do an obvious riff like the Initial D sequence.

The Labour Party brought to you by the words 'Hands-on' and the number '550 000'
It says something about the speed with which the Shearer camp threw together the affordable 100 000 homes in the wake of the manufactured leadership coup that the numbers are as wonky as they are on their KiwiBuild policy.
A 5-story apartment complex in Massey, Papakura or Manurewa doesn't seem nearly as wondrous as it did at the Labour Party conference. Labour should be talking about 4 bedroom apartments in the central city and a mass build up of 3-story density on roads that already have a built up infrastructure like Dominion Road, but they aren't. They are talking about homes on the fringe of Auckland. That is a large let down from what was promised and gives National the edge when pointing out Labour haven't done their costings properly.
The problem for National is far larger than point scoring Labour's haste in launching their housing policy. John Key has told NZers for 4 years what Government can't do, but by 2014 voters will want to hear what Government can do.
In speech notes that could have come from Cunliffe, Shearer set the tone for bigger Government by pointing out that the free market hasn't worked and needs realigning by the active hand of Government as opposed to the vagaries of a failed free market that is locking Generation X and Y out from ever owning their home.
The lack of policy detail is probably a realization from the haste of the previous one that Labour need to do their homework first. Shearer is acknowledging that this economic crisis requires a different approach than the neoliberal one, the question still remains why it has taken him so long to articulate this.
How far David Parker will be allowed to transform the economy to one that doesn't slavishly worship free market principles still remains the main issue for progressive voters leading into 2014.
That Bill English has been left to attack Shearer shows that they don't want to give the issue of house affordability any oxygen and they certainly don't want to have a philosophical debate about the role of Government post a free market crash. What we can expect from National is not a defense of their record because their record shows more poverty while the rich got richer, what we can expect is attacks on Labour, the Greens and MANA.
Expect Key's fear mongering use of 'Labour, the Greens and MANA' to jump 457% this year.

Gem-Water Bottles by VitaJuwel naturally boost the alkalinity and oxygenation of your own tap, pre-filtered, or bottled water in just 7 to 10 minutes. Each VitaJuwel water bottle's completely sealed gempod holds a blend of semi-precious gemstones that naturally vibrate at a frequency sufficient to essentially restructure or 'wake up' water thereby measurably boosting its alkalinity as high as 8.02 and increasing its oxygenation. The result of using VitaJuwel water bottles is enlivened water with qualities comparable to spring water. The distinct smoother/softer mouthfeel makes for a refreshing taste experience and improved hydration for the body.
Wash VitaJuwel water bottles thoroughly before first use. The glass bottle itself is dishwasher safe. The gempod and caps are NOT dishwasher safe. To clean, unscrew gempod from bottom cap. Wash parts by hand with warm, soapy water. Allow all parts to dry completely. Securely, but gently, re-assemble parts. DO NOT open the specially sealed gempod. After extensive use, water products can develop limescale, simply use lemon juice or vinegar essence to remove. We suggest cleaning your bottle at least every 2-3 days. When filling your Vitajuwel water bottle, run water directly into the top. Do not let water run over edges of the opening or water will accumulate in the groove between the glass and bottom gempod cap giving the impression that it is leaking. If water has run over, put the top cap on and simply turn the bottle upside down to let the excess water out.
SAFETY: Handle all your VitaJuwel water bottles with care, they are precious. Treat your products as you would any other glassware. Avoid impacts. Do not freeze or microwave. If any damage occurs to your VitaJuwel water bottle, stop usage immediately. Keep away from young children.
Vitajuwel water bottles are designed by Ewald Eisen and VitaJuwel in the German Alps. The Vitajuwel water bottle's patented design incorporates a lead-free glass GemPod hand blown in the Czech Republic and filled with fairly traded, semi-precious, tumbled gemstones. Vitajuwel's durable glass bottle is certified lead-free, borosilicate glass. The top and bottom stainless steel caps contain a BPA-free plastic lining and silicone washers.

TRACY - President Barack Obama's lead adviser on water and wildlife toured the enormous south Delta export pumps Tuesday, examining the roaring, 22,500-horsepower pumps before cautioning that no one would receive all the water they need this year.
TRACY - President Barack Obama's lead adviser on water and wildlife toured the enormous south Delta export pumps Tuesday, examining the roaring, 22,500-horsepower pumps before cautioning that no one would receive all the water they need this year.
U.S. Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell told reporters that state and federal governments will have to be flexible to make the best use of a limited amount of water.
"Mother Nature has created this drought," she said. "This drought is not created by the Bureau of Reclamation or the state of California. Working together, we can put as much flexibility in place as possible to satisfy as many users as possible, recognizing that nobody's going to get the amount of water they are hoping for."
Events of the past week, however, show how difficult it might be to manage the state's vast water infrastructure in the coming months.
Recent storms temporarily boosted the amount of water flowing through the Delta, west of Stockton. But by the middle of last week, San Joaquin Valley farmers had grown frustrated because most of that water was not being pumped their way. Instead, it was left in rivers flowing toward the ocean.
"I ask you, is this the balance that you anticipated?" Dan Nelson, general manager of the San Luis & Delta-Mendota Water Authority, asked a state water official at a drought workshop in Merced last week. "Is this the balance you anticipated? I don't think so."
By last weekend, exports from the state and federal pumps near Tracy had increased to more than 7,000 cubic feet per second combined. That's enough water to fill an Olympic-size swimming pool in 12 seconds.
The farmers down south were getting more water. But now the additional pumping was beginning to harm fish.
As the pumps cranked up, Delta streams began running backward toward the pumps at a higher rate. Endangered winter-run Chinook salmon were sucked into the pumps - a total of 121 juvenile salmon in the past week, according to government records.
More than two dozen steelhead and a few splittail and longfin smelt also began to show up at the pumps.
"It's crucial that pumping be restrained while baby salmon that have so far survived the drought pass through and around the Delta," said John McManus, director of the Golden Gate Salmon Association.
The numbers aren't high enough to trigger emergency actions to save the fish, but the week's events show how quickly the pendulum can swing as officials attempt to find the "flexibility" that Jewell touted Tuesday.
California Natural Resources Secretary John Laird said after her remarks that officials are still trying to find an appropriate balance.
And there's nothing new about that. But the drought is turning a microscope on daily or even hourly management decisions once considered more routine.
"(Water supplies) have just never been so low that the day-to-day (operations) are so dramatic," Laird said.
Jewell said she came Tuesday to hear perspectives of people suffering from the drought. That discussion was aimed mostly toward Central Valley Project users who benefit from increased Delta exports. But, asked if she would have similar conversations with Delta interests, Jewell said it's important to hear from a range of perspectives and said this wouldn't be her last trip to California.
She called Gov. Jerry Brown's proposed twin tunnels an "important potential solution for people to consider seriously," though she said there were many unanswered questions including the size of the tunnels.
"We are riding on an infrastructure that we built many decades ago," Jewell said. "We are putting more demands on that infrastructure than it was intended to serve."

The agent of reported Tottenham target Leandro Damiao expects interest
The agent of reported Spurs target Leandro Damiao says he expects a 'big European club' to come in for the Brazilian.
By Paulo Freitas
Last Updated: 05/01/13 8:11pm
Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas has made no secret of his admiration for the Internacional frontman and has long been linked with a move for his signature.
The 23-year-old is contracted at the Brazilian club until 2015 but his agent, Vinicius Prates, is not ruling out him making a European switch.
However, Prates is unsure whether clubs will follow up their interest this month due to the nature of the market.
He told Zero Hora: "European clubs are paying attention.
"I think a big European club will come. But, on the other hand, in January - their winter, our summer - the clubs don't invest much. The big signings are made in the mid-year window, in August."
Asked about Tottenham's reported interest, Prates added: "While Leandro Damiao stays at Internacional, Tottenham will always be interested.
"Andre Villas-Boas has liked him since he was Chelsea's manager."
Prates says Damiao is happy at Internacional and intends to stay until the World Cup in 2014, but admits a move is a possibility.
Asked if the striker will leave, he said: "I can't say, the market changes a lot. But the project is to stay until the World Cup.
"Leandro Damiao is doing well at Internacional, he is happy there."

If you've ever asked yourself these questions, here are some answers.
Do I have to share a story or experience when I bear my testimony?
People often share stories or personal experiences when they bear their testimonies, and these can be a great way of describing how a testimony grew. But a story is not a testimony. A short, relevant story can help you illustrate a point, but make sure to include how that story enlarged your testimony and what gospel truths you learned from that experience. A testimony is what you know about the gospel, not about where you've been or what you've done.
Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles taught: "A testimony is what we know to be true in our minds and in our hearts by the witness of the Holy Ghost (see D&C 8:2). As we profess truth rather than admonish, exhort, or simply share interesting experiences, we invite the Holy Ghost to confirm the verity of our words."1
Also, be careful about the experiences you share. Some are deeply personal to yourself or others, including stories about sin, repentance, and sacred spiritual experiences. Stories like these should not be shared in a public setting unless you feel prompted to. When you do feel prompted, keep them general, focusing on what you learned from the experience rather than the specific details of what happened.
Do I have to express thanks or love in my testimony?
While it is not inappropriate to express love or appreciation when you bear your testimony, these expressions are not considered a testimony. Testimonies focus on what you have learned spiritually about the gospel. Expressions of love or gratitude should not replace a testimony.
Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said, "[I] worry that too many of our members' testimonies linger on 'I am thankful' and 'I love,' and too few are able to say with humble but sincere clarity, 'I know.'"2
Do I have to cry or show emotion to have a real testimony?
Many people cry or show emotion when they bear testimony or feel the Spirit strongly, but not everyone has the same emotional reaction when he or she feels the Spirit. You do not have to express emotion the same way as others when you bear testimony.
President Howard W. Hunter (1907–95) said: "I get concerned when it appears that strong emotion or free-flowing tears are equated with the presence of the Spirit. Certainly the Spirit of the Lord can bring strong emotional feelings, including tears, but that outward manifestation ought not to be confused with the presence of the Spirit itself."3
If I'm not sure I have a testimony, do I still try to share it?
It's easy to feel like your testimony isn't strong enough or worth sharing, but as you share your testimony, you will find how much of a testimony you really have! Do not be afraid to bear your testimony. You will find that the more you share your testimony, the more it grows.
President Boyd K. Packer, President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, said:
"It is not unusual to have a missionary say, 'How can I bear testimony until I get one? How can I testify that God lives, that Jesus is the Christ, and that the gospel is true? If I do not have such a testimony, would that not be dishonest?'
"Oh, if I could teach you this one principle: a testimony is to be found in the bearing of it!
"Somewhere in your quest for spiritual knowledge, there is that 'leap of faith,' as the philosophers call it. It is the moment when you have gone to the edge of the light and stepped into the darkness to discover that the way is lighted ahead for just a footstep or two."4

Major Section: ARRAYS
Example Form: (compress1 'delta1 a)where
General Form: (compress1 name alist)
name is a symbol and
alist is a 1-dimensional array named
name. See arrays for details. Logically speaking, this
function removes irrelevant pairs from
alist, possibly shortening
it. The function returns a new array,
alist', of the same name and
dimension as
alist, that, under
aref1, is everywhere equal to
That is,
(aref1 name alist' i) is
(aref1 name alist i), for all
legal indices
Alist' may be shorter than
alist and the
non-irrelevant pairs may occur in a different order than in
Practically speaking, this function plays an important role in the
efficient implementation of
aref1. In addition to creating the new
compress1 makes that array the ``semantic value'' of
name and allocates a raw lisp array to
name. For each legal index,
i, that raw lisp array contains
(aref1 name alist' i) in slot
Thus, subsequent
aref1 operations can be executed in virtually
constant time provided they are given
name and the
alist' returned
by the most recently executed
compress1 or

Hill Executive Director American Society for Information Science and Technology 1320 Fenwick Lane, Suite 510 Silver Spring, MD 20910 Fax: (301) 495-0810 Voice: (301) 495-0900 April 12, 2007 SYRACUSE, NY -- Bruce Kingma, professor and associate dean in Syracuse University's School of Information Studies (iSchool), has been appointed to the new position of SU associate provost for entrepreneurship and innovation. The appointment -- made by Vice Chancellor and Provost Eric F. Spina -- is effective immediately. As associate provost for entrepreneurship and innovation, Kingma will provide leadership for the Syracuse Campus-Community Entrepreneurship Initiative -- a collaborative partnership made possible by a five-year, $3 million grant from the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. The Syracuse Campus-Community Entrepreneurship Initiative builds on the key tenets of Scholarship in Action by encouraging faculty and students throughout Central New York to work with communities of experts across disciplines and geographic boundaries to foster entrepreneurial education and innovation in three key areas -- technology, neighborhood and arts entrepreneurship -- while utilizing three experiential sites in the region: the Syracuse Center of Excellence in Environmental and Energy Systems headquarters; The Warehouse and the Arts Quarter in downtown Syracuse; and the South Side Innovation Center. Kingma will work with SU and partner institutions to develop new curricula and curricular elements, enable research, and facilitate experiential learning and that integrates the concept of entrepreneurship and innovation across disciplines. Kingma will remain as associate dean for the iSchool through the arrival of the school's new dean; current dean Raymond F. von Dran steps down from his position in August 2007.

With the above elements in place it's time to begin bidding on work. Be specific in your bid about why you would be the best person for the job and don't make the mistake of doing a cut and paste job when writing your bids - hirers really don't like this and it will be a waste of your time. In the early days you will more than likely need to bid low ($1-2 per 100 words) in order to get a few jobs. Once you have a few writing jobs under your belt and you've received positive feedback (most of the writing sites have this feature kind of like Ebay) you can start to increase your prices. What Makes a Good Freelance Writer? Before your face a telephone interview, get some practice. Ask a friend or family member to conduct and tape record a dummy interview to see how you sound over the phone. A teacher has the noble responsibility of shaping the society. As such, seldom are they allowed to be selfish and short tempered. Dealing with students can be a tough job. It requires patience and willingness to spend time with them. I hope that you are ready to take up this responsibility and deliver it with all the success. This is where I sign off! All the best!

In our busy life, newspapers are most important source of information.

It ends when God kills thousands of His Chosen People with a plague (love those germs) and an earthquake
(shake, rattle and roll) as punishment for rumblings in the ranks.
The newspaper editors, editors who have long had to respect the wishes of the Pakistani authorities, have been quick to realize the potential of the Internet.
