text: Busy time for aspiring doctor - Edmonton Journal August 8, 200812:00AM PDT Previous Next Rustad squeezes Olympics into schedule Vicki Hall TIANJIN, China - Talk about a crazy nine months for Clare Rustad. Five days before last Christmas, the cagey midfielder received an invitation from coach Even Pellerud to play once again for the Canadian women's soccer team, thus resurrecting a chapter of her life she thought was over and done. Then, she was accepted in May to medical school at the University of Toronto. On Wednesday, she slipped on a red jersey and represented Canada in the first competition of any kind at the 2008 Summer Olympics, a 2-1 victory over Argentina. To go to Beijing, the 25-year-old had to leave her job at the Centre for HIV and AIDS at St. Paul's Hospital in Vancouver, but she is sure her boss understands. "There was no way I was going to say no," Rustad said Thursday after another day of training in the intense heat and humidity outside the Tianjin Olympic Centre Stadium. "It's been kind of surreal." Rustad, 25, believed her elite soccer days were behind her after a four-year hiatus from the national team. In the meantime, she moved on with her life, finding passion and meaning away from the pitch. Building on her undergraduate degree in molecular biology, Rustad headed to England where she earned her master's degree in epidemiology from Cambridge University. Home beckoned, so the Saltspring Island, B.C., native returned to the west coast to put her education to use and help some of the most disadvantaged people living in one of the world's most beautiful cities. "A lot of people don't realize that the downtown east side in Vancouver is often very similar to a developing country in terms of both living conditions and the prevalence of HIV and AIDS," she said. "I do care about it. A lot." So much that she's off to the University of Toronto medical school after the Olympics for the next step in her medical career. A superb scholar, Rustad turned down four other offers to study at the U of T. "I've always been interested in pediatrics, but after living in Vancouver and living blocks from the downtown east side and dealing with all the infectious diseases, the Hepatitis C and the HIV down there, I think that's some thing I'd like to get in to," she said. "There's a shortage of doctors who want to do that." For now, Rustad has other matters at hand -- like a shot at an Olympic medal. "It's a great story," said captain Christine Sinclair. "Being on the team, then not being on the team, then she goes away and gets her master's degree, and then she's back, and then gets accepted to med school. Wow. "She does a tremendous job for us." Up next for Rustad and her Canadian teammates is a clash with the speedy, shifty Chinese women on Saturday in Tianjin. The tournament then shifts to Beijing for Canada's final qualifying game Tuesday against Sweden. During her time away from the national program, Rustad kept her skills up by playing for Cambridge and the Vancouver Whitecaps. She also coached kids on Vancouver Island. "Just proves anything can happen," said goalkeeper Erin McLeod. "It's just really cool. A year ago, she wasn't even on the roster. All of a sudden, she gets her chance. "It just proves you always have to be ready." With the days ticking down to the start of medical school, Rustad has no idea if she'll actually be ready in time. But first things first. After all, this is the Olympics -- one of those true once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. "We've very focused on what we're doing right now," she said. "Very focused on getting the rest we need and recovering as quickly as possible and just coming together as a team even more in our downtime. "I'm just really enjoying being here. I mean, how can you not?" Vicki Hall is in Beijing as part of the Canwest News Service Olympic team © The Edmonton Journal 2008 Previous Next

Goshen planning and zoning commission approves gas station, convenience store
GOSHEN >> Following a unanimous vote by the Planning and Zoning commission, Goshen will have its first gas station in 20 years.
The gas station and convenience store will replace the existing Goshen Hardware Store on Route 4.
"The plan is to demolish the existing Goshen Hardware Store and then build the new convenience store and gas station," Goshen Land Use Official Martin J. Connor said Wednesday.
Connor said that the commission "realized that it is something that is needed for the town." He said that it will improve the appearance of the center and perhaps lead to more businesses in that center, given the influx of gas station customers.
Mark Greenberg, the owner of the plaza, previously told the Register Citizen that there has not been a gas station in the town in 20 years, and there hasn't been a food store in three or four years.
According to Lithfield.bz, "the store will be 3,000 square-feet in size and will have two self-service gas pumps and one diesel pump beneath a 16-foot high canopy."
Speaking during a meeting of the Inland Wetlands Commission late last month, Goshen First Selectman Wilrose Duquette said that he and the other selectmen support the new gas station and convenience store.
"We think it will be a good addition to the town," Duquette said.
The plan for this new gas station and convenience store previously met some opposition from a few residents, mostly due to the design of the building, which in one resident's opinion, would threaten "the general quaintness of the village of Goshen."

If you're not a native of this area, you may not be aware that Chester County is considered the mushroom capital of the world. Mushroom farms in the United States generate more than $1 billion in annual sales and Pennsylvania ranks number one among the 50 states in production of this delicacy. French chef Julia Child used mushrooms in many of her recipes, including her renowned beef bourguignon. Child wasn't afraid of critics who questioned her ample use of butter and heavy cream. She once said 'The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook' - and a platter of sauteed mushrooms goes quite nicely with that course.
The word fungus may remind you of your ninth-grade science class; the mushrooms Americans consume are fleshy, spore-bearing fungi known by the scientific term Agaricus bisporus. There are thousands of different types of mushrooms found worldwide; a few dozen represent those typically found on dinner tables and restaurant menus.
The domesticated mushroom became popular in France in the early 1800s; in subsequent decades it was brought to England. Chester County farmers began raising them in the 1890s. Jacob Steyer and William Swayne imported spawn, material to generate mushroom growth, from Europe and were among the first men cultivating mushrooms in Pennsylvania. An accident spurred Swayne's pursuit. He had extra room in greenhouses raising carnations and decided to plant mushrooms to utilize the space. Swayne is considered the father of the mushroom industry in the region. Edwin Jacob was among the pioneer growers at the time. His efforts produced high quality mushrooms which he sold around Pennsylvania and farmers found a new crop they could sell.
By the 1920s, Chester County mushroom producers were supplying outlets in New York, Boston and other cities. The canning industry helped bring their crops nationwide; consumers were no longer limited to locally grown mushrooms and could enjoy them year-round. Unfortunately for domestic growers, this enabled the importation of mushrooms from other countries, creating a flood of product into America. While imported packaged mushrooms have dominated store shelves in recent decades, growers producing for fresh consumption have continued to experience steady demand. Pennsylvania Agaricus mushroom production increased by nearly 4 percent annually from $158.1 million in 1980 to $497.2 million in 2012. Keystone state volume has risen by roughly 10 percent since 2009 and accounts for more than 62 percent of national production.
The popularity of culinary television shows has helped build recognition of this vegetable. Health food outlets have blossomed by offering a wide variety of mushrooms, known for being high in fiber and potassium, low in fat. Aside from the typical white-button type, other curious-looking delicacies have entered our vocabulary in recent years. From portabellas with their meaty flavor and morels which exhibit a smoky, almost nutty taste to criminis and shiitakes with a rich, full-bodied essence believed to offer special health benefits, these treats can complement almost any meal.
Two local establishments are well known for their high quality products: Kaolin Mushrooms and Phillips Mushroom Farms. Kaolin is the number one grower in Chester County, among the top five in the U.S. Their headquarters in Kennett Square is just one part of a large operation which yields roughly one million pounds of mushrooms every week. Phillips is the largest producer of specialty mushrooms in the country. Phillips has been offering the products since William Phillips began his business back in 1926. Don and Marshall Phillips took over operations in 1962. Today Jim Angelucci helps manage the sprawling complex, offering crimini, portabella and shiitakes and exotic types like beech, royal trumpet, enoki and pom pom. Jim's easygoing demeanor makes visitors feel at home; his depth of knowledge shows he's well versed in every aspect of the industry. Phillips gourmet selections are widely available, including at their own mushroom store - The Woodlands, a historic structure which dates to 1828. Visitors are greeted by Jill Gray and Sharon Phillips who highlight freshly picked morsels perfect for any dinner.
Kathi Lafferty at The Mushroom Cap sells a variety of fresh mushrooms, as well as soup mixes and assorted gifts. In her shop a movie plays showing the history of the industry, with details on some fine morsels which may grace your table as a delectable treat. Lafferty even coordinated the annual Mushroom Festival in downtown Kennett Square whose popularity has, well -- mushroomed over the years, drawing more than 100,000 attendees in 2012. So, if you're wondering whether to saute some criminis for a pasta dish or grill a few portabellas for an afternoon snack, drive into Kennett Square and visit the places which bring these delights to consumers every day.
Gene Pisasale is an author based in Kennett Square; his books and lecture series focus on topics of local interest. His latest historical novel 'The Forgotten Star' delves into the War of 1812 and true-life mysteries surrounding an American icon- the Star-Spangled Banner.

Try Unpainted Fish Blanks!
There's no thrill in the world like catching a sailfish, or any monster fish for that matter. The joy of finding a big fish and then fighting and landing your catch is unforgettable. It's a feeling you should share with all those you love forever, that's why so many people mount their big catches.
You'll never forget that once in a lifetime moment, when you finally reel in that big fish, that moment that the triumph and joy of the catch sinks in. Most people want to relive and share that moment with all who enter their home, but taxidermy can be expensive, and why let someone else share in your joy, in your triumphant moment? Why let someone else put their spin on your memory? You worked hard to catch that fish. With fish blanks that you paint yourself, you can finish the job you started, save money, and keep that fish and that moment alive forever. It's easy enough to do, if you have a little bit of creative flair, it's fun to do, and it's cheaper than having someone else mount your fish.
Think about it, your heart skipped a beat when you saw that sailfish soar in the air, or when you lugged that big, monster bass over the side of the boat. You wouldn't have let someone land your fish, after catching it and fighting it so long, so why let someone else mount it? Preserve that memory forever the way that you want to, when you purchase unpainted fish blanks from the industry leader in quality fish blanks, King Sailfish Mounts.
King Sailfish Mounts will provide you with the same high quality fish blanks that professional taxidermists use, you can use the paint of your choice, as most paints work, and have YOUR monster fish mounted the way that you want, in the least expensive way possible.
King Sailfish Mounts send you the low profile (or one sided) blanks that you choose, or two sided blanks if you desire, based on how detailed you want the mount to be.

A funny thing happened during the previous season of "Entourage" -- it actually got good. And not "good" in the typically dumb but satisfying "Entourage" way (pool parties with Bob Saget followed by renting a Maserati, for example), but rather the stakes were raised and consequences actually meant something. That can happen when an addiction to blow and a relationship with pornstar Sasha Grey enter the picture. (For a more extensive, smarter look at last season, read GQ's Sean Fennessey's piece from last August here.) It was the show's darkest season by a mile, and it set the table for an opportunity to finish the series on a compelling note.
Sunday night's episode, the oh-so brilliantly titled "Whiz Kid," ended with Scott Caan's character talking into a dildo and then gleefully chasing the rest of the boys with it. Cut to black. Yes, folks, this is "Entourage" with four remaining episodes and it has reverted back to its old ways.
Before that douchey (even for "Entourage") final moment came the aftermath of last episode's suicide-ending. (Long story short: At AA, Vince reconnects with a producer who did him wrong, gets duped by the then-high-again producer and ends up finding said producer dead in his bathroom from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.) The cops wants Vince's story and his urine, just to make sure his recent problems weren't creeping again ... except, whoops, Vince smoked a joint ("two puffs"!) a week ago to see how much of an addict he was or wasn't. Or something.
Meanwhile, Ari is dealing with his failing marriage the only way he knows how -- like a jerk. And although that's why we love Jeremy Piven's performance, the writing puts him in a corner like a brat, shoving his fling with Dana Gordon (surprisingly believable thanks to Constance Zimmer's charming performance) in his wife's face. Ari's wife is now dating Bobby Flay (whom I had just watched crown the "Next Food Network Star" only an hour earlier -- the magic of television, people), so Ari naturally brings Dana to Flay's restaurant to confront him in the most passive-aggressive way possible. Hearing Flay call Ari an "assh----" might have been the highlight of the episode.
Back to Vince. In the second biggest WTF moment of the season (the first goes to Turtle for selling his stock of Avion tequila before Mark Cuban could take it public), Vince recruits Billy Walsh to hook him up with a fake penis loaded with clean pee. Vince confesses the plan to BFF E, and as usual, Eric tells him how stupid he's being. In a turn that only the Mayans could have seen coming, Vince gets the call later that night that his sample, along with his reputation, came back clean. "Airwalker" is still on, the boys can hug and laugh about the close call and "Entourage" ends like it usually does -- free of weight, concern and burden.
With only four episodes left, there's very little time for the show to turn this boring streak around. ("Whiz Kid" is merely a new low-point in a season barely breathing.) I mean, really, a whole episode dedicated to beating a drug test? Because of two hits from a joint? Yep, it's come to watching the boys drink vinegar and Vince pulling out a very fake looking member. It's just another day in the life of Vincent Chase and his pals, where a problem can and will be solved in under 25 minutes.
"Things always work out for us, Vince," says E, trying to reason with his star before the drug test. He's right, and that's the problem.

Just looked at the lamp oil that I have and it says Paraffin Lamp Oil.
I have a dozen lamps and most are filled with lamp oil and it has evaporated in one of them. Why just that one?
Thanks! I will take a photo of it and post it.

Dielectric properties of tissue
Dielectric properties of tissue—measured through advanced microwave imaging techniques—convey functional information useful for making clinical diagnoses. The properties reflect tissue composition of fat, bone, water, proteins, etc., and often have unique spectral characteristics. The relative proportions and dynamic aspects of these constituents can have important implications for breast cancer imaging, osteoporosis detection, brain imaging, and heat therapy monitoring.

I grew up hearing about a certain incident that happened nearby where I grew up in Ozark County, Missouri. As many may know, I grew up in a small community of Mammoth, Missouri. At Mammoth there is an old county road called 'Possum Walk Road which runs along the side of 'Possum Walk Creek. This road & creek treks across the Missouri/Arkansas State-line from a point about 3miles north of Three Brothers in Baxter County, Arkansas. It originates from a few miles in Arkansas, flows north, and empties into Lick Creek at Mammoth. Years ago I remember family and friends, every so often, would bring up the topic of a certain "knob" south on the 'Possum Walk Road. Today, this tragic incident is over 142 years old, but I think it needs to be told.
Last year I had a friend supply a clipping from The Ozark County Times, 1936, with the details of this incident I was looking for. It is transcribed, except for a double g. Please read on and you will understand.
An 1871 Lynching in Baxter County.
We clip the following article from the Baxter Country Citizen, Mtn. Home, Ark., it will interest our readers in the south part of the county, we believe:
The following article was sent to us by Dr. J. F. Normann, 1309 N. Jefferson street, Springfield, Mo., which explains itself.
Owing to many erroneous and conflicting reports concerning this event, I am prompted to write the true story, as I was quite conversant with the circumstances and probably the only man now living who saw the colored gentleman in aerial suspension.
There was a man by the name of Galvin who resided in the White river region south of Mountain Home. He had a young negro man hired to work on his farm. About the middle of March, 1871, this negro made a criminal assault on Galvin's infant daughter, and made his escape during the night, passing near Mountain Home. He made his get away by the way of the Old Salt Road. Mr. Galvin got on the trail of the negro after a few days search. I met him in the road while he was hunting the negro; he was on horseback, with a long rope ties to his saddle, cowboy style. He inquired for the negro, made no explanation, and proceeded on his journey. He met up with Jim Calhoun, who knew the country. Galvin and Calhoun trailed the negro into Missouri and found him working for Jack Coffey on Lick Creek. They took charge of him, marched him back, and took him on top a knob just east of the old 'Possum Walk Road, south of where Jake Foster lived at the time, in the edge of Arkansas, and it was alleged that they hung him at a stooping tree till he was dead, and they left him hanging and proceeded on their journey. After the fleshed had all decayed, the skeleton fell to the ground, and when the bones had dried and bleached, I became the owner of the skull, as I was reading medicine at that time.
Among all the comments I heard, no one seemed to censure Mr. Galvin for the course he took. No arrests were ever made, and the circumstances were never published in any paper. The knob upon which the negro was hanged has been called the 'Ni- - er Knob' to this day.
End of Article
|Click to enlarge 1966 USGS Topographic Map showing "Negro Knob."
To bring some validation to this story, I researched the participants of this 1936 news article.
Dr. J. F. Normann
Doctor Jason Fritz Norman, was born the 23rd of December, 1854, in Fulton County, Arkansas. He died the 2nd of March, 1950, in Springfield, Missouri. He married Sarah Catherine "Sallie" Barnett Norman. Mrs. Norman was born the 13th of August, 1851, in Hardin County, Tennessee, and she died the 11th of October, 1946. They both are buried at the Eastlawn Cemetery , in Springfield, Missouri.
Mr. Jack Coffey
Andrew Jackson "Jack" Coffey lived on Lick Creek, and he is an easily identifiable character in Ozark County history. His wife at the time was Louisa Jane Hutcheson Coffey. They were married in Grainger County, Tennessee, the 1st of September, 1831.
|Names listed on the Marriage License of Andrew Jackson Coffey to Louisa Hutcheson.
Mr. Coffey & Louisa had 7 children by 1870.
- Mary A. Coffee – Age: 24
- Susan Ann Coffee – Age: 13
- Thomas J. Coffee – Age: 11
- William G. Coffee – Age: 15
- James F. Coffee – Age: 8
- Andrew J. Coffee – Age: 5
- Cleveland P. Coffee – Age: 2
Mr. Coffey is also referenced as living in this area by Silas Turnbo in two stories posted online. They are entitled:
Louisa died the same year as the lynching, 1871.
A picture of Andrew Jackson "Jack' Coffey can be found here: Coffey/Coffee Call.
The Perpetrator, Mr. Galvin
Since Mr. Galvin's first name was not given, I have not been able to identify Mr. Galvin for certain. The nearest person for the limited description given is a John G. Galvan who lived in the White River area at Batesville, Arkansas. This makes partial sense in which he would need the assistance of John Calhoun who knew the local area well. Mr. Galvin is the right age; he was born the 3rd of October, 1834, and died the 14th of June, 1903, which would make him 37 years old in 1871.
The Accomplice, John CalhounJohn Duaval Calhoun was born the 29th of December on the Calhoun Prairie in Richland County, Illinois. The Illinois prairie took its name from John's grandfather & grandmother, Hugh Calhoun Jr. & Mary Ann Hull Calhoun, the original settlers of what was known as Calhoun Prairie.
Andrew Jackson Calhoun & Julia Cynthia Bickford Calhoun, in Whiteville, Marion County, Arkansas, which is currently in Baxter County, Arkansas.
John enlisted for confederate service in Marion County, Arkansas in the Arkansas 27th Infantry on March 11, 1862. John was discharged July 30, 1862, after a little over 1 year & 3 months of service. It was discovered John was using the name of a brother, James D. Calhoun, and he was only 17, being under age for service. Later he served in the first part of 1865 in the 33rd Texas Cavalry, Company D.
After the Civil War, John married Martha "Elizabeth" Morgan Calhoun. She was born the 17th of September, 1850, in Montgomery County, Alabama, and she was also living in Whiteville, Arkansas, by 1860 at age 9.
John & Elizabeth Calhoun also lived in Whiteville and had 8 children:
- Hank Howard Calhoun: Born 1866 in Whiteville, Marion County, Arkansas (Now in Baxter County)
- "Allie" Alice Calhoun Gardner : Born October, 1873, in Baxter County, Arkansas
- "Sally" Calhoun: Born the 12th of May, 1876, in Hot Springs County, Arkansas
- "John" Hugh Calhoun: Born the 22nd of May, 1878, in New Mexico
- "Lucy" Calhoun: Born the 4th of September, 1880, in Baxter County, Arkansas
- "Mary" Elizabeth Calhoun Harrison: Born the 29th of January, 1883, in Baxter County, Arkansas
- "Henry" Blair Calhoun: Born the 10th of August, 1885, in Baxter County, Arkansas
- "Zeke" Ezekiel Orlando Calhoun: Born the 28th of November, 1891, in Sumpter, Baker County, Oregon
In 1870, Mr. Calhoun lived near Independence/Whiteville area which is less than a mile south of the Old Salt Road. This would place him in close proximity in giving assistance to Mr. Galvin. [Actually, I also live in the Whiteville area.]
The Calhoun family left Baxter County sometime after 1888 and was living in Baker County, Oregon by 1891. John passed away on the 21st of April, 1924, and is buried in Phoenix, Jackson County, Oregon. Elizabeth passed away the 20th of December, 1907, and is buried in Sumptur, Baker County, Oregon.
|Grave of John Duaval Calhoun. Notice the American flag. I wonder if his family knew he fought for the Confederacy.
The main reason I felt compelled to write this article, is to give voice to the gentleman that was hung. This execution can be chronicled as sad, due to either dying in destitute isolation or in the presence of the accuser & executioner. He had no redress to the law or access for representation. By tradition his name was "Black Tom," but that was a common racial epithet or slur. If anyone happens to know his name, please let me know.
With shedding light on this incident, it brings so many questions to mind.
What was his real name? Where was his family? Was he innocent or guilty?
What was his prayer walking up to the knob? What were his last words?
Personal Reflection
In my youth I rode my motorcycle on the same dirt road, climbed the same knob, and searched for the bent tree. Though no evidence was found, it held a haunting presence that eerily draws the traveler up the knob.
I realize I may get more controversial responses from this article than some of my previous work. For those who feel compelled to gather stones or a fashion a noose, let me help you. If you feel the need to verbally stone or lynch me, let me supply you with gear that you think you may need.
- I am white. (WASP: White Anglo-Saxon Protestant.)
- I was born in the Ozarks.
- I never knew people of other ethnic backgrounds until I was in 18 years old and in the Air Force.
- I had ancestors who fought for the Confederacy in the War of Northern Aggression. (Yet, I wonder if it matters about the ancestors who fought for the Union and who were abolitionist.)
These are a couple of choice stones that can be thrown and ropes that can bind me with the accusation that I am prejudice. But…this is far from the truth.
Honestly, I have done hours of research on stories because I have felt a connection to this story, and it has always bothered me. Nevertheless, and I have done nothing with the research because it could be viewed today as politically incorrect. Frankly, I refuse to do this anymore. Since prejudice did occur in the Ozarks' past, it almost seems taboo sometimes to bring it up.
Did prejudice occur in the Ozarks? Absolutely.
To the degree it may be portrayed in the media or movies? Not every time.
Were there incidences in the Ozarks' past where race relations were good? Absolutely. Try this link: The Bleaching of History's Tapestry
History is not always pretty; yet, it weaves an intricate tapestry. As beautiful or ugly as it may seem, it is our entire story. Sometimes, many people rewrite history or neglect it… hoping the messy or embarrassing parts would be ignored or fade away.
I believe when we look back at our history, it may be a part of the cure of repeating past mistakes. The other factor is having the wisdom to discern the truth and having the courage to change. Some people may revel in our mistakes in order that they may have something to gossip about or publish again.
Here is a scripture that caught my attention as a child:
Acts 17:25b-27 KJV He [God] is giving life and breath and all things to all, and He made every nation of men of one blood, to live on all the face of the earth, ordaining fore-appointed seasons and boundaries of their dwelling, to seek the Lord, if perhaps they might feel after Him and might find Him, though indeed He not being far from each one of us.
Since we originated from the same blood, shouldn't we attempt to create a better for future generations? It seems there are those who would use our past to divide us. By manipulating this power over us, they divide and rule us. These are the same tactics once used in Germany, and its tyrant was subtle. The two tools he used were "Divide & Conquer" and "Hegelian Dialectic ." Hegelian Dialectic comes from Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel who was a utopian & collectivist; he despised individual freedoms. His concept to control society was "Thesis-Antithesis-Synthesis" also known as "Problem-Reaction-Solution" Unfortunately, the etchings of these tools are evident on our society today. If we progress any further under these rules, we will cease for being the nation once conceived. These tools have altered our nation's DNA. If our leadership divides us and accentuates our differences with contempt & distain…and we allow them, we can no longer claim being the progeny of America.
I have discovered...
Historians have the opportunity to momentarily guide the pen of history.
Politicians momentarily wield the power to manipulate or lead the cadence of history.
Statesmen momentarily possess the meekness and tenacity to encapsulate the essence of history.
Yet at the end of every Era, the Lord judges and reigns over history.
I have discovered...

Yet at the end of every Era, the Lord judges and reigns over history.
So my Dear Reader, the tools of division or peace are the same.
We can chronicle a path for our family that will stand as a memorial.
Or, we can strangle a life that is so easily influenced.
Let us not fall into the wrong grasp.
Should we remain silent for the next 142 years?
If we do, we too will be led to a Lonely Knob of History and Lynched by those who claim superiority over us.

Man wants out of lease after learning of decades-old Seabrook murder
Nothing about Seabrook's Villa by the Sea speaks to its shadowed past.
Now a small gated community on Galveston Bay, the property on Todville Road was the spot where Bill List, a 57-year-old businessman with a record of sexually molesting teenage boys, built a 34,000-square-foot mansion. One night in October 1984, four young men who were staying at the house shot him to death with his own gun.
List's property was later divided into 18 lots, where 13 houses stand. One of the houses, 514 Villa Drive, is listed for sale at $1.5 million or for lease at $5,900 a month. The two-story, four-bedroom residence was built in 2006.
A would-be tenant recently signed a lease but said he did so without knowing about the property's past, according to KHOU-TV. Nir Golan told KHOU that he wouldn't move into the house now if the owners paid him.
"A lot of people say there's shadows of children," Golan told KHOU. "People say that they wouldn't come to my house as a guest."
Although it's unclear if the home at 514 Villa Drive occupies the exact spot where the slaying happened, Golan said it didn't make any difference.
More Information
Kathaleen Moyer, a former vice president of the neighborhood home owners' association, said she thought it was unlikely that 514 Villa Drive would be where the shooting took place because it's close to the water. List's mansion at 3300 Todville Road was toward the other end of the property.
"I do sympathize with the gentleman who leased the house, but this was decades ago," Moyer said Thursday. "It's not like it's an existing home that someone got murdered in."
Moyer and her husband lived in the community for five years but moved in January for reasons unrelated to the property's past. She said she has been inside all the homes in the subdivision except one.
"It's a wonderful place to live," she said. "I miss living there."
According to a Houston Chronicle article published Nov. 18, 1985, the three-story mansion was divided into two wings with an atrium in the center and a catwalk between the wings at the second level. At the bottom of the atrium was a 40-foot swimming pool.
The ballroom in the front had terrazzo tile from Mexico on the floors, and a 40-by-70-foot game room had a pool table and 20-foot octagonal bar. The dining room had a 30-foot table. The master bedroom upstairs had its own kitchen.
But it also had wrought iron bars over the verandas. On the night List died, the young men living in the house decided they were tired of List's mistreatment and would shoot him.
Elbert Ervin "Smiley" Homan, who pulled the trigger, pleaded guilty to murder and was sentenced to 45 years in prison. His probation in a 1983 aggravated robbery was revoked and he was sentenced to a concurrent life term for that. He is serving those sentences at the Terrell Unit in Rosharon.
List's death was not the only violent incident in his family's history. His daughter, Deborah Thornton, was killed in a notorious pickax murder committed by Karla Faye Tucker in 1983. Tucker was executed in February 1998.

The German Cabinet has agreed to send Patriot missiles and up to 400 soldiers to Turkey to deter the Syrian civil war from spilling into the country.
The cabinet decision, made in a special session today, follows a move by NATO foreign ministers Tuesday to approve Turkey's request for such missiles.
Errant Syrian artillery shells struck the Turkish border town of Akcakale and killed five Turkish civilians in October.
Turkey asked NATO to deploy Patriot missiles along its border to bolster its air defenses against Syrian threats.
In addition to Germany, the United States and Netherlands - both of which have Patriot capabilities - have signaled they would be willing to contribute missiles.
"Any deployment will be defensive only. It will in no way support a no-fly zone or any offensive operation," the NATO statement said.
The decision was made as news surfaced about fears of Bashar al-Assad's government using chemical weapons.FULL STORY

TUrkey was quick to see the opportunity to increase both its land mass,raise it's stature in the European community, and be paid well while doing so.
Just who are the real belligerents and is it a Civil war when a group of outside forces are trying to overthrow the ruling powers to replace them with their own?
Makes no difference if a Syrian face is put in place but who will own that face is the truth of the matter.
@ Hide Behind
"Israel rejects UN call to open its nuke program to inspection". Well what do we normally do with countries who do that ?
trouble being brewed too by Israel to flaunt us and the int. community. As a revenge for Palestine going to the UN it seizes $ 120m of Palestine tax money. And vows to push ahed with 20 thousand more housing units on palestine territory.

Where to Buy Coffee on the Internet
For many who read food blogs and magazines, the exercise is one of frustration as much as inspiration. While the fine people of Asheville may be able to get a bacon, bratwurst, and pulled pork hoagie with cheese, the rest of us may not be quite so fortunate. And the same can be said for coffee: in San Francisco or Portland or even New York, creative, small-scale specialty coffee roasters are cranking out roast after roast of fresh, delicious coffees that residents of those cities can easily waltz in and buy a cup or bag of.
But what if you live further-flung from the nation's most delicious coffee sources? We've rounded up a few online retailers who, through the miracle of drop-shipping, do a great job of curating a wide range of coffees that allow you to continually taste and experiment with something new and exciting—or in some cases, something simply beyond the local grocery store.
Go Coffee Go
Okay, we'll admit it's a little hard to take this website seriously as a tastemaker when it's festooned so gaily in flower-power iconography and hosted by a rotund "Professor Peaberry". But appearances aside, Go Coffee Go has gathered an esteemed panel of roasters, from Good Food Award winners MadCap to Bay Area favorites Ritual. They're joined by the likes of Equator, Dallis Bros., and elite Denver roaster Novo, to name only a few. Again, ignore the website copy of "hottest" and "ripest"—I'm hoping all this coffee was picked ripe, anyway. Drop-shipped from the roasters fresh to you, and featuring regular shipping specials, options for automatic ordering, and more.
Filling a niche in the world of exposing smaller regional roasters to a national audience is ROASTe, whose repertoire of roasters range from Ann Arbor to Hawaii, from San Antonio to San Diego. Look for selections from Brown Coffee Co., Ceremony Coffee Roasters, PT's and others, including many lower and mid-priced selections. With a fairly democratic selection that relies on user ratings to differentiate between coffees, it may be a little harder to identify the best of the best here, but then again—the price is right enough to take a chance on something new. Coffees will ship directly from the roaster to you, and a regular buying club offers discounts on shipping (as well as a Barista Hotline!)
Editor's note: ROASTe is now operating as CoffeeKind after the original date of this publication.
We've reviewed the Misto Box sampler before in these pages, but beyond offering diminutive-sized monthly tasting flights (a great way to get to know new coffees), MistoBox sells coffee in full bags from the roasters they work with. Bringing together artisans like Oklahoma City's Elemental, Santa Cruz, CA's Verve, and Portland's Coava, MistoBox offers both coffees they've offered as samples and a range extending well beyond. They also offer an AmazonPrime-like incentive to purchase unlimited free shipping no matter how many times you order. A capital idea if you drink—or would really like to drink—lots and lots and lots of good coffee.
Need Guidance?
And in another vein completely, you may find the venerated Coffee Review website helps fill in gaps where online retailers are understandably biased. While Coffee Review does not offer much in the way of shopping ease—they don't even link to the roasters' homepages, much less the coffees—they offer one of the web's longest-standing independent review databases. Not sure if the four star rating on a coffee-buying website just means the roaster's boyfriend liked it? Look up the same coffee on Coffee Review and see if they liked it, too.

Big Ten Weekly Five: 05.03.12 EditionPosted by Deepak Jayanti on May 3rd, 2012
- Illinois head coach John Groce is wasting no time on the recruiting trail as he recently lured Champaign native Rayvonte Rice away from Drake. Rice will sit out one season but will become eligible in the fall of 2013 and have available playing time after senior guards Brandon Paul and D.J. Richardson graduate. Rice led Drake by scoring 16.8 points per game last season as a sophomore and put up solid rebounding numbers for a guard by averaging 5.8 boards per game.
- Most college hoops fans believe that conference expansion will only hurt traditional rivalries in football but not necessarily basketball due to the longer non-conference schedule. But the Indiana – Kentucky rivalry may be in jeopardy as the SEC has expanded with the addition of Missouri for the upcoming season, as Tom Crean and John Calipari have been in discussions about keeping the annual game on their schedules despite all the changes. The key issue seems to be whether the game will continue to be a home-and-home or will revert back to a neutral court situation as it was for many years. Regardless of the venue, college basketball fans should not be deprived of a great regional game every season.
- One of the most underrated coaches in the nation, Bo Ryan, was recently rewarded with a contract extension at Wisconsin through 2017. The terms were undisclosed but the Badger fans will be happy to see him scowling on the sidelines for another several seasons. Ryan has been in Madison for 11 seasons already and has obviously turned Wisconsin into a perennial Big Ten contender.
- Michigan basketball fans would love to skip the next six months and get the new season started. Why wouldn't they? Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway, Jr., are back in Ann Arbor in addition to freshmen studs Mitch McGary and Glen Robinson, III. Robinson and McGary have played together in the past and can't wait to begin a new chapter of Michigan basketball. With Burke returning, John Beilein has a legitimate contender for another Big Ten title and a Final Four appearance next season.
- Tom Izzo's players continue to face legal trouble during the offseason. First it was Derrick Nix and now it is Brandon Wood. Wood faces misdemeanor charges after being arrested recently in Chicago. Izzo will need to replace Wood's spot because he has already graduated and will look forward to Travis Trice to mature into a consistent guard in addition to Keith Appling. The last couple seasons have been unusual off the court for Michigan State, but Izzo has made it clear that discipline will not be compromised as he suspended Nix and also let go of Korie Lucious for off-court issues.

- Sometimes, sh*t happens. There's nothing you can do about it, except to take it and move on.
- Knowing how to change your tire is important.
- Knowing who to get to change your tire for you is also important.
- People are better than you think they are.
I went straight into the building and told the fellow who works at the shipping and receiving desk, "If someone tells you that I have a leak in my tire, tell them that I already know and that I'm working on it."
Off I went to my desk, where I promptly wolfed down some food (I hadn't had breakfast yet, and I knew I'd be even more grumpy with a flat tire and an empty stomach), then I called the hubby to tell him what had happened. I went back out to see if I could inflate the tire to get it to the tire repair shop, but it was no good: the more air I put in, the louder the hissing noise was, and the grumpier I got.
I went in and our shipping guy said, "I've had five people tell me you had a leak." I grunted, slightly annoyed. Yeah, I know! I thought to myself.
I got back to my desk and my office mate informed me that someone had called from the shop in the building to tell me I had a flat, and to offer compressed air for it. I grunted again, annoyed at the reminder of my stupid tire. Eventually, I got some friends to come and help me change it at lunch time (which means, they changed it while I watched), and by the afternoon, the tire was repaired and back on the car.
And then, as I recounted the event later on, my hubby said, "It was nice that people were so concerned about you to tell you about the tire."
Heh, actually yeah, it was nice of them. And if I hadn't been to fricking grumpy, I would have thanked them properly.
Sometimes, I forget to recognize the kindness that people are sending my way. I get so stuck in suspicion and cynicism that I completely miss the genuine concern that people have about my situations. And that's not fair. To live a life of gratitude is a far better way to live.
I have people in my life who constantly refuse help, and who have a hard time believing the good motives in the people who are trying to help them. To them I say:
People are getting involved in your situation because YOU ARE WORTH IT. You have shown kindness and compassion, and you deserve kindness and compassion in return. Do not give in to the suspicion that the world pushes onto us. You are not weak for accepting help. It requires far more strength to put aside cynicism and to accept that you are worth the effort. You are worth the work.
So, while it irritated the heck out of me to have a flat tire just before the weekend began, it was a good reminder that I am surrounded by good people who think I'm worth looking after. Thanks, y'all. I promise I'll pay it forward.

Memorial service for Nancy Lanza planned in New Hampshire
Photo: Reuters
KINGSTON, N.H. -- A memorial service is planned in New Hampshire for the woman whose son shot her dead at their Connecticut home in December and then drove to an elementary school and killed 20 children and six educators.
Kingston Police Chief Donald Briggs says a service for Nancy Lanza will be held on Saturday at 1 p.m. at the First Congregational Church in Kingston. He said only friends and family are invited.
A private funeral was held for Lanza on Dec. 20 in Kingston, where she once lived.
Lanza's 20-year-old son, Adam Lanza, killed her at their home in Newtown, Conn., on Dec. 14 and then drove to Sandy Hook Elementary School, where he killed the children and school employees before committing suicide.

I've been obsessed with Taiko for a century and a half so this should be fun.
Taiko no Tatsujin: V Version plays on PS TV. I'd have to guess these titles would too. So investing in a cheap PS TV wouldn't be a bad alternative.
I'm assuming you meant to write for a decade and a half.
Different song versions? Now I'm really hyped.
All new Vita games should have compatibility for PSTV going forward. If you have an old firmware (I believe <3.52 works), you can force most non-compatible games to run on it by modifying the whitelist.
There was a song in the video Scotty posted where Chihaya, Yukiho, and Makoto are singing Little Match Girl. I don't think there was a music album that had all 3 of them singing at the same time. Just Chihaya and Yukiho.So, does that mean they used Stage for You (Ex. derived from One for All) for the songs in this game? I was thinking because that way you can get different versions of the same song by different idols. But, I could be totally wrong.
lol at the 961 full combo in Acceleration. I see what you did there.
Got my copies.They definitely do not work on PS TV.
They definitely do not work on PS TV. Enjoying Red version a lot.

Roseville, CA…A Roseville resident and two Lincoln residents have tested positive for the West Nile virus (WNV) recently, becoming the first cases in Placer County this year to have a documented infection of the disease. All three residents, two adults and one child, became ill with meningitis earlier this month, were hospitalized and tested positive for WNV, and are now recovering.
"Because West Nile infections are preventable, these cases, and the positive mosquitoes and birds found this season in western areas of the County, remind us all that we must take some simple precautions to avoid mosquito bites," said Dr. Richard Burton, Health Officer and Director of Placer County Health and Human Services.
West Nile virus is transmitted by the bite of a mosquito, usually in the two weeks before illness. The risk of serious illness to most people is low. However, some individuals – less than 1 percent – can develop a serious neurologic illness such as encephalitis or meningitis. People 50 years of age and older have a higher chance of getting sick and are more likely to develop complications. Recent data also indicate that those with diabetes and/or hypertension are at greatest risk for serious illness.
The California Department of Public Health reported Tuesday that 44 people from 15 counties have tested positive for WNV during 2012. California's West Nile virus website, www.westnile.ca.gov, includes the latest information on West Nile virus activity in the state.
The Placer County Health and Human Services Department and the Placer Mosquito and Vector Control District recommend that individuals prevent exposure to mosquito bites and West Nile virus by practicing the "Three Ds":
1. DEET – Apply insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus or IR3535 according to label instructions. Repellents keep the mosquitoes from biting you. DEET can be used safely on infants and children 2 months of age and older.
2. DAWN AND DUSK – Mosquitoes bite in the early morning and evening so it is important to wear proper clothing and repellent if outside during these times. Make sure that your doors and windows have tight-fitting screens to keep mosquitoes out. Repair or replace screens with tears or holes.
3. DRAIN – Mosquitoes lay their eggs on standing water. Eliminate all sources of standing water on your property, including flower pots, old car tires, rain gutters and pet bowls. If you know of a swimming pool that is not being properly maintained, please contact the district at 888-768-2343.
Horses are vulnerable to West Nile virus, and the mortality rate for unvaccinated horses is very high. Owners should contact their veterinarians about protective immunizations. West Nile does not spread between humans and horses.
Residents are encouraged to report all dead birds and dead tree squirrels on the state website or by calling toll-free 1-877-WNV-BIRD (968-2473).

Why learn card manipulation? Simple: Because it's cool.
In the old days, manipulation was reserved for magicians and dealers. A fan here, a ribbon-spread there, and there you go. Sure, there are artists such as Jeff McBride who did incredible things with cards, but they were few and far between. Then De'vo vom Shattenreich and Jerry Cestkowski came along, and completely changed the game with Xtreme Card Manipulation.
This stuff will give you the ability to handle cards like you never dreamed you could. far different from magic tricks, it will turn your scrawny, wimpy fingers into beefcake, manly-man fingers capable of fanning, flipping, cutting and spreading in ways that defy gravity.
Like we said. It's cool.

Stay informed about ROSSITER Family online & offline events!
See our recent family gatherings
ROSSITER Family HistoryThis interesting and unusual name is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is a dialectal variant of Rochester, a locational name from places so called in either Kent or Northumberland. The place in Kent appears originally in the Saxon Charters of 445 as "Dorobrevi", from the British (pre-Roman), "duro" a stronghold, with "briva", a bridge, and later, circa 700, it was recorded in the Anglo Saxon Laws as "Hrofesceaster", or as "Hrofi", circa 730, in Bede's Ecclesiastical History; both deriving from the Olde English pre 7th Century "hrof", roof, with "ceaster", city or walled town. The derivation of the place in Northumberland is possibly the Olde English "hroc", rook, appearing in the Fees of 1242 as "Rucestr"; hence, "the city of rooks"...

Good Morning!
I finally got my Blogpodium 2014 recap written! Yea, me! First of all, I had a great time at Blogpodium , I always do. I was using my iPhone for photos that day, and the venue was a bit dark, so needless to say this post is going to be Texty McTexterson so bear with me. After this Blogpodium was all said and done, I definitely had lots of thoughts about blogging in general, which I will get to later, but first I want to share some of my highlights.
I loved the keynote speech by Donna from Funky Junk Interiors. It had humour, passion, and grit. She drew us in with her story, which really showed us how she got where she is today. She did give us some tips and hints but it was her story of perseverance that made us all relate to her and it really set a great tone for the day. I loved the picture she posted talking about people's reactions when you tell them you are a blogger….
Now, I have been blogging for over four years and generally haven't really paid much attention to the numbers. Recently, I have been trying to figure out traffic, the best ways to improved my google rank, and other techie things, and well, it been frustrating. So this year, I decided to nerd it up and focus on the technical sessions. I went to 2 sessions. One by Nicki Lamont on Essential SEO and one by Avery Swartz from Camp Tech on Google Analytics. Both were really, really helpful and I left with a much better of a grasp on all those crazy blogging metrics. And can I tell you how much I love Camp Tech? Seriously. They had a nerd station at Blogpodium where bloggers could ask questions and get specific help for their own blogs. As you can see from the photo below, they were pretty busy all day! Also they have the best tag line ever.
And I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the panel discussion with Jen Flores, Scott McGillivray and Monika Hibbs. I knew Jen would be great….obviously she has the finger on the pulse of bloggers. But I'll be honest, although I enjoy both Scott's shows and Monika's blog, I went into the session wondering what exactly they would bring to the table that would be applicable to the average blogger. Well, I will tell you I was really impressed with both of them. They told their stories which were very interesting in their own ways and also they provided good advice on career paths. And they both had a huge amount of drive, which resonated with me. What I took from that discussion was be true to yourself, make a plan and then go get what you want.
Another great thing that I always love about Blogpodium is seeing all the bloggers I don't see in real life often enough. This year I was so happy to have my friend Sarah of More than Denim, staying with me for her first blog conference. Sarah is a Canadian blogger over at More than Denim, who just recently moved back to Halifax from the US and is excited to get tapped into the Canadian blogging scene. Check it out for some fabulous fashion and food posts.
Now on to the more introspective stuff. I have been attending blog conference since before I had an probably had any right to do so. I've been to all four Blogpodiums and I also attended Alt Summit in Salt Lake City in 2012. Looking back, I will say that for the first 2 Blogpodiums and Alt, I KNEW NOTHING. I learned a lot but maybe not a lot that applied to me directly since my blog was so small and newer at the time. Now, that being said, my blog isn't much bigger now than it was then, but I would like to think it's slightly more sophisticated. I certainly would say that the last 2 Blogpodiums were the most rewarding. but also very different. Last year, I left feeling super inspired and motivated. For me it was about the relationships and connections, but looking back I didn't leave with a huge amount of tangible information to actually apply on my blog. This year, however, while I didn't leave with a sense of euphoric blog bliss, I learned a ton and left with so much information that I could put into action right away. It wasn't better or worse than last year, just different. But I think maybe that is the evolution of attending blog conferences. Every experience is unique and speaks to you differently.
Now, it's no secret that the word on the street is that that blogging as we know is dying. Readership is down, comments are down, major publications in the US are shutting down blogs. And for sure, all that may indicate a significant change to blogging. The next big thing may take blogging in a whole new direction. Big changes. But just because something is changing it doesn't mean it's dying.
And I think something is missing from this conversation and that is that people don't ever get tired from hearing stories. About a month ago I read great post written by by Erin Loechner over at Design for Mankind titled Blogging, Now that was posted back in August and talked about the state of blogging. I think Erin's take on the topic is bang on. I would encourage you all to take a read of the entire thing but I want to share with you a quote from the end of that post…..
"Blogging won't die, because it was never truly alive. The stories, the voices – that's where the heart beats. And storytelling, friends, is forever." – Erin Loechner, Design for Mankind
Truth. Look at my Blogpodium highlights above. Do Donna and I have the same aesthetic? No. Do I love every single project she does? Not necessarily. But I still loved her keynote and love how she writes on her blog. Why? Because she is genuine, tells a story and I connect with that in some way. And then, Scott and Monika, two people that I didn't anticipate taking much away from who really surprised me, and why? Because they told their stories before they launched into the advice. I understood where they were coming from. Genuine stories make all the difference. Isn't that how blogging started? It doesn't matter what a post is about or how short it might be, if you there is a reflection of you and your story weaved in there in even the smallest way, someone is likely to enjoy it.
And I'm off my officially getting down off my soapbox. (*Drop Mic)

Do you have a good picture of a fish that you think AC should have an article about?
If so attach the picture/pictures to a post in this thread and suggest that an article be written on that species and I'll try to write and publish one when I get the chance.
( I will likely not be able to write anything until after new year)
I will try to write on all topics that are suggested this way (time allowing) but I might not if a topic is to obscure.
(only attach pitures that you have the copyright to and that you are willing to let AC use)
Don't have a picture but still want to suggest one or several articles?
Then do so. Perhaps I or someone else got a picture.
Remember your suggestions help make AC better.

Behind the Scenes at Dirt Candy
Vegetable hero Amanda Cohen of Dirt Candy is not only the chef/owner of the very few upscale vegetarian restaurants in New York City; she turns humble vegetables into gastronomic works of art. It's even more impressive to watch her run her tiny East Village kitchen, where it's a miracle that the single cook and the dishwasher don't trip over each other. Seats are packed, orders fly in, and every plate must be perfect.
Dirt Candy's dishes use single vegetables as their themes; they seek to deliver the most tomato-y tomato flavor and the most intense version of mushroom. A dish cucumber and tofu is anything but ordinary: it absolutely screams cuke (the fried pickle nest topping certainly helps); a savory tomato cake uses tomato three ways. We got a chance to see the process of how a few of these dishes come together. In the slideshow above: cucumbers, tomatoes, cauliflower and waffles, jalapeno hush puppies, and even sweet pea ice cream sandwiches.
