Visitors to the Thomas Carr Watson Farm Sunday afternoon could easily let their imaginations slip back a couple of centuries as they witnessed a barn-raising on the 260-acre farm. With what seemed like amazing ease, the 12-member crew from the Portsmouth, N.H. contracting firm of Dodge, Adams and Roy, raised section after section of the heavy timbered barn, until the entire barn was framed. The late Thomas Carr Watson left the farm to the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities with the stipulation that it be operated as a working farm.

Homeowners on the municipal water system can expect to see an increase in water and sewer charges when they get their water bills next week. Sitting as the Board of Water and Sewer Commissioners last Wednesday, the Town Council voted to raise the 5,000 gallon water-use minimum from $39.93 to $40.93, and increase the excess water charge from $3.09 to $3.23 per 1,000 gallons, up 5 percent. The commission also raised the sewer rate by 22 cents, from $4.33 to $4.55, another 5 percent increase.


text: It may sound weird but you can also try applying plain yogurt(without sugar like those greek kinds before you mix the fruit in from the separate container) and apply it to the nipple. My regular doctor suggested this and mentioned that she did it herself to relieve the discomfort. She only left it on for 10 minutes or so before wiping it off and then applying lanolin between feedings (she did say she left it on longer a few times even longer, but made sure to wipe it off before feedings). She also said to consume the yogurts that have no or very little sugars to help fight off the bad bacteria. Decreasing sugar intake can help balance your system when thrush is present. Hope things continue to get better for you!

Alex Witchel
All Gone
Alex Witchel
All Gone
A Memoir of My Mother's Dementia. with Refreshmen
Release Date: 10/1/2013
LIST PRICE: $16.00 (you save $4.56)
Biographical note:
Alex Witchel is a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine and originated the popular Feed Me" column for the Dining section. The author of three previous books, she has also written for New York, Vogue, Elle, and Ladies' Home Journal, among other publications. She lives in New York with her husband, Frank Rich.
Main description:
A daughter's longing love letter to a mother who has slipped beyond reach
Just past seventy, Alex Witchel's smart, adoring, ultracapable mother began to exhibit undeniable signs of dementia. Her smart, adoring, ultracapable daughter reacted as she'd been raised: If something was broken, they would fix it. But as medical reality undid that hope, and her mother continued the torturous process of disappearing in plain sight, Witchel retreated to the kitchen, trying to reclaim her mother at the stove by cooking the comforting foods of her childhood: Is there any contract tighter than a family recipe?"
Reproducing the perfect meat loaf was no panacea, but it helped Witchel come to terms with her predicament, the growing phenomenon of ambiguous loss " loss of a beloved one who lives on. Gradually she developed a deeper appreciation for all the ways the parent she was losing lived on in her, starting with the daily commandment Tell me everything that happened today" that started a future reporter and writer on her way. And she was inspired to turn her experience into this frank, bittersweet, and surprisingly funny account that offers true balm for an increasingly familiar form of heartbreak.
Review quote:
"Haunting, unflinching and at times unexpectedly hilarious… Witchel offers up a fiercely honest account of how her adored mother slowly began 'disappearing in plain sight'… A book that may make you cry (I did), but through some mysterious alchemy it will also leave you with many positive feelings. It will make you smile and even laugh out loud… A powerful affirmation of family bonds, of the soul-sustaining love—and special dishes shared in beloved company—that persist from generation to generation." –The New York Times Book Review
"In this warm memoir, Witchel recounts her mother's mental decline and the solace she derived from preparing family recipes. I related to the author's desire to hold fast to her mother. My mom embodies so much: family, traditions, home. I worry about how I'll cope when she passes away someday. This book was a comfort, reminding me that nothing can ever rob me of her love." –Real Simple
"[Witchel's] recipes are simple family classics. With their invocations of old-time staples like Del Monte tomato sauce and Lawry's seasoned salt, they're humble reminders of the many small acts of care that hold a family together. On the page, they stand as incantations." –The Daily Beast
"Witchel writes beautifully from the heart, but with a journalist's clarity… [She] reminds readers that family relationships are precious and time is fleeting." –San Francisco Chronicle
"As Ms. Witchel wisecracks, 'In our house, it was always the old days.' All Gone… pay[s] homage to those days. As do the clever comebacks Ms. Witchel scatters throughout… Still, she gives the best lines to her mother, [who,] even as she free falls… delivers good dialogue." –Rachel Shteir, The New York Times
"Bittersweet, with levity." –Good Housekeeping
"Moving." –People
"A short, lovely memoir, moving in its description of grief and loss, the painfully slow loss, of a beloved parent, never self-indulgent and with enough bright spots to balance the blackness… And there is a moment at the end… that brought me to a full-on weep." –Michael Ruhlman
"Food… comes from a different quadrant of [Witchel's] universe, a space where she can hold a sort of mental conversation with a beloved parent no longer able to converse. And what a parent! …My mother, like Alex's, cooked the day's meals not for pleasure or adventure but as an unromantic responsibility that maintained stable, loving order in our small bit of the cosmos. I read "All Gone" marveling that I could ever have looked down on, rather than up to, such an achievement. It's an honor to meet Barbara Witchel as she was before her mind was ravaged, and celebrate the kind of cooking she stands for." –Anne Mendelson, ZesterDaily.com
"A moving tribute… that reminds those whose child–parent relationship has flipped that they are not alone." –SheKnows.com
"Funny and poignant… a complex mother-daughter love story." –Maclean's
"A testament to love, tenacity and the power of home cooking" –MORE Magazine
"In this recipie-dotted memoir, Alex Witchel finds solace among the saucepans as her beloved mother slips away... [Includes] witty culinary asides and nuggets of maternal wisdom." –Whole Living
"Warm and always humane, Witchel's narrative is a poignant, candid reminder of the new normal that now defines so many adult child-aging parent relationships." –Kirkus
"I cannot get over how good Alex Witchel's writing is. I wish I could park my desk next to hers and learn how to write sentences even half as efficient and muscular and poignant. No one is smarter, funnier, or more graceful. And there's no one whose kitchen I'd rather be invited into." –Gabrielle Hamilton, author of Blood, Bones and Butter
"Alex Witchel takes us on an extraordinary journey of the mind and heart as a vibrant parent fades into dementia. She shows us that despite profound loss, we can nourish ourselves with memories that sustain love and give comfort. This book of sharp honesty and deep insight illuminates a time in life when so many of us seek understanding." –Jerome Groopman, author of How Doctors Think and The Anatomy of Hope
"Alex Witchel is a heroic and funny war correspondent who explains, once and for all, why it's called the nuclear family." –Fran Lebowitz
"This is a story of love and loss told as only Alex Witchel can tell it—with the extraordinary warmth and humor she brings to all of her work. I loved reading it!" –Ina Garten

Tough To Punish Those Who File Bogus DMCA Takedowns
from the little-punishment dept
Eric Goldman highlights a case where an ISP tried to use section (f) to go after a bunch of folks who issued questionable DMCA takedowns that were clearly designed to harass a couple of websites (and, at one point, were used to try to take down the entire ISP). The details are a bit convoluted, but basically, a group of people critical of what was being said on a website issued a series of DMCA takedowns to keep the site down every time it came back up following a counternotice. This seems like a perfect case where the takedown issuers should be hit with sanctions of some sort, but the case was dismissed on procedural grounds instead, which seem to be based on a misunderstanding of the DMCA itself.
But, more important is how this case demonstrates how the DMCA is abused not to prevent copyright infringement, but to try to silence speech that someone doesn't like. We've had plenty of discussions about the conflicts between the First Amendment and copyright law, but here is a case where Congress has made a law that is all too often used to stifle speech.

John Wayne, Scots-Irish Icon
In one interview in the early 1950's John Wayne described himself as 'just a Scotch-Irish little boy.' John Wayne, or as he was known before his fame, Marion Morrison, was born in Winterset, Iowa. His family emigrated from County Antrim, Ireland, in 1799. The Morrison family, like so many families in Counties Antrim and Donegal, were of Hebridean ancestry and the Morrisons were Scottish Gaels that came to Antrim from the outer Hebrides. His immigrant ancestor was Robert Morrison born in 1782, son of John Morrison. The Morrison family were active in the United Irishmen movement and their decision to emigrate was brought about by a British warrant issued for the arrest of Robert Morrison.
Robert Morrison and his mother arrived in New York City, in 1799. Like so many Scots-Irish the Morrison family had a tradition of being strong willed, opinionated, and carried a well developed sense of right and wrong. Like so many Ulster settlers the Morrisons pulled up stakes many times and followed the frontier west. The first wave of Ulster settlers headed west and south and people the Southern Uplands and the hill country of Alabama, Mississippi, and Arkansas. The Morrison were part of a second wave of Scots-Irish that moved along the rivers west into Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, and Iowa. They became the Mid West Scots-Irish.
John Wayne is arguably the most famous and most successful actor in history, quite an accomplishment for a Scots-Irish boy from Winterset, Iowa. He was a complex man, his family very Presbyterian, yet John Wayne often described himself as a 'cardiac Catholic.' He lived his life as a Christian with noticeable Presbyterian focus and drive, yet his wife Pilar was Roman Catholic, as were all his children. John Wayne himself converted to the Catholic Church officially just days before he passed away.

Hi Barry
The blog is referring all the time to the Scots-Irish. What do you call the other half of Ulster's population? Are we the Irish Irish?

mlmuckian, mo chara,
Good comment and illustrates well how odd nomenclature can be. As a fellow from the Diaspora I must admit it gets a little odd always having to qualify of whom I speak... nach dtuigeann túsa, ach níl a fhios agam cad é a dheanamh fá an rud... of late the many Scots-Irish post are driven my email traffic and requests for more posts on the topic. Ach, cuir chugam sceal ar na Eireannaigh-Éireannaigh agus beidh sé sa UH Mag cinnte! We are always hunting for interesting topics, you input very welcomed.

It's amazing what you can do on the internet with a google Irish translator. nice post Mimuckian enjoyed your comment. Does not surprise me that John Wayne was of Scots highland descent if he had been of Scots lowland descent he would have been a totally different personality an uptight presbyterian bigot with an inveterate hatred poof anything Irish, which John Wayne himself doesn't seem to have had.

So the duke was Scots/Irish or Ulster/Scots as they prefer to call themselves these days. And of highland descent also, which doesn't surprise me he seemed to have a generally friendly disposition. It's amazing how little us southern Irish know about the history of the Scots/Irish and the influence they had on the history of the USA especially the early history of it's foundation. We tend to concentrate on people like the Kennedys and Irish regiments in the American army. The Scots/Irish had a few presidents of note and played a big part in the War of Independence. Come to think of it they live join the same island and wee still know f/a about them and visa versa.

As I work with Ulster history and Ulster DNA results, it is amazing how many Ulster folk are of West Highland and Hebridean ancestry. My own family in that mix, they came from mid Argyll to east Donegal with Iníon Dubh and company. It is a very interesting aspect of Ulster history certainly, and much understudied.

True, the McDonalds of Antrim being a good example. They had a big influence on the history of the whole island during the 16th and 17th centuries and had alliances with the native chieftains of Ulster.

Ever since Tim Burton came out with his version of Alice & Wonderland, I've seen an increase in product related to or inspired by the classic tale – and not just in the Disney store. Just this week I saw (via facebook) that Priscilla Dawn, an etsy shop, will have an Alice-inspired dress for custom order next month. Then I saw American Crafts' reveal of the new Dear Lizzy line "Enchanted" (pictured below) and my brain started spinning.
For more images and information on this line visit the source of these images – the American Crafts blog.
These three items I've shown are just a few of my favorites – I find the whole line to be very cool and I predict another run-away success for Elizabeth Kartchner and American Crafts. It's a fun twist on the butterfly and flower products that are so common in the industry, and I really love the funky color palette.
I've also noticed the details of Cosmo Cricket's Pixie-Licious line that they revealed recently on their blog. I see a lot of flowers with faces, as well as mushrooms, and caterpillars too. Will there be more caterpillars alongside butterflies now? More mushrooms with flowers? This Pixie-licious line is an interesting offering for sure.
It makes me wonder – will big flowers, tea cups, white rabbit, queen of heart and mad hatter tea party inspired product be the next big thing? Will we see a number of companies jump "down the rabbit hole"? With many CHA reveals still to come, I have no way to know – but I am surprised to find how much I hope there is a big push in this direction.
I like the realm of possibility it holds, and I am hoping for some funky new goodies to add to my must-buy list beyond the lines above.

Lent inspires clinic demonstratorsBy MARK HAYWARD
New Hampshire Union Leader
March 08. 2013 12:20AM
MANCHESTER - Pro-life activists say they are encouraged by the 40 Days for Life campaign, which works to place daily picketers outside abortion clinics throughout the country during Lent, the Christian period that leads up to Easter Sunday.
The 40 days reached their midpoint this week, drawing about 60 people to a candlelight vigil Monday at the Planned Parenthood clinic on Pennacook Street, said Marty Dowd, a Manchester resident who works as a substitute teacher.
Similar activities are taking place at the abortion clinic in Greenland, as well as 259 other locations around the United States, Canada, Europe and Africa, according to the 40 Days for Life website.
Dowd and fellow picketers spoke Thursday outside the Planned Parenthood clinic in Manchester.
"It's a peaceful vigil. This is not a protest; it's a prayer vigil," said Bob Melnyk, a Manchester salesman who is organizing the Manchester effort.
Planned Parenthood sees the protests as disruptive.
"These protest marathons are designed to intimidate the many patients who seek basic health care services from Planned Parenthood," said Jennifer Frizzell, senior policy adviser of Planned Parenthood Northern New England.
Those services include cancer screenings, breast health care, family planning and birth control, testing for HIV and treatment for sexually transmitted infections, as well as safe, legal abortions, she said.
Six picketers were on hand when Melnyk arrived about 12:30 p.m., most carrying signs that opposed abortion. The number dwindled to two within minutes, but he said people sign up to attend the protests on a regular basis.
Organizers said the intent is to have a presence outside the clinic seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Not all hour-long shifts are taken, but the turnout is better this year, Melnyk said.
"The weather's kind of a factor, but we don't let it deter us," Dowd said. Many prefer to come on Thursday, when the picketers say abortions take place at the clinic.
Picketers who sign up on-line are asked to sign a pledge to forswear violence and act compassionately to all clinic employees and patients.
"It's a peaceful message we're trying to get across. They're the violent ones. I don't have a suction machine taking out a baby; all I've got is a rosary," said Bedford resident Jeanne Szulc.
On Thursdays, she tries to distribute literature designed for women after they have had abortions. Szulc tried to speak to one patient as she drove an SUV out of the parking lot. The woman, who had a young child in the front seat, threw about a half-dozen wrapped condoms out of the passenger-side window at her.
Turnouts are also strong when Catholic priests show up and bring some members of their churches, Dowd said. They include the Rev. Msgr. Anthony Frontiero of St. Joseph Cathedral, the Rev. Paul Montminy of St. Catherine of Siena and the Rev. Robert J. Smolley of the Protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Melnyk said the effort is non-denominational, but many protesters hold rosaries. The Diocese of Manchester is not part of the 40 Days for Life effort, said its spokesman, Kevin Donovan.
Melnyk said the 40 Days effort ends March 24; a final rally is slated for the following Thursday.

White Sox's Dewayne Wise opts for free agency
By Mark Gonzales
NEW YORK -- Outfielder Dewayne Wise, who preserved Mark Buehrle's July 23 perfect game with a leaping catch in the ninth inning, has opted for free agency.
Wise chose free agency over accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Charlotte.
Wise, 31, hit .225 with two home runs and 11 RBIs in a career-high 84 games with the White Sox in 2009. In two seasons with the Sox, Wise batted .236 with eight homers and 29 RBIs.
The White Sox 40-man roster drops to 36.

NEW YORK (AP) — When the bassist turned filmmaker John Carney was young, a borrowed Walkman played while cycling to school was an epiphany.
"The idea of personalized music was outrageous to me," said the Irish writer-director in a recent interview. "My life changed. I could now make this journey in an imaginative state. You could suddenly be listening to a Malcolm McLaren song or Grand Master Flash."
Carney's latest film, "Begin Again," which opens Friday, is a love letter to the transformative power of music — the way it can chart our lives and provide solace for trying times. It's an earnest reminder of the simple majesty of music, even in the disposable age of iTunes. The original title was "Can a Song Save Your Life?" and there's no doubt as to the film's answer.
It's a follow-up of sorts to Carney's 2006 Oscar-winning indie sensation "Once," which chronicles a musical romance between a Dublin busker and a recent Ireland immigrant, who join for an unlikely, uplifting recording session. "Begin Again" moves to New York, but it, too, exudes a heart-on-the-sleeve sincerity about collaborative music-making and an abiding affection for street-level authenticity.
Mark Ruffalo stars as a divorced, middle-aged record executive struggling in the modern, recalibrated music industry. He's grown cynical, furiously tossing CDs out of his car window, desperate for something with feeling. He drunkenly stumbles across it at a Lower East Side club, where an unknown British singer (Keira Knightley) bewilders him. He pursues her and cobbles together a band to back her on an outdoor album recorded around New York.
Knightley's character is also lost, having come to the U.S. with her musician boyfriend (Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine), only to see his sudden onset of pop stardom leave her behind.
The mix of disciplines — music and movies — is seen throughout "Begin Again." CeeLo Green and Yasiin Bey (also known as Mos Def) play supporting roles. Knightley sings despite little previous experience.
"For me, the two things are almost married," says Carney of cinema and music.
Carney, 42, was a member of the Irish band the Frames before turning to directing their music videos. He also wrote some of the songs in "Begin Again," which came out of imagining what happened to A&R guys he saw trolling Dublin in early 90s, looking for "the next U2."
"He's sincere," says Ruffalo of Carney. "He's earnest about his art and his filmmaking."
Ruffalo identified with what he calls "the inner unrest" reflected in "Begin Again," a movie he said that's about people "getting back to themselves."
Shot in only 24 days, "Begin Again" was made with the same lo-fi aesthetic of its music, which meant working quickly, improvising dialogue and finding ad hoc locations.
"I was completely out of my comfort zone," says Knightley. "I'd never really been on films where the space isn't safe. This film was very much like if there was a street corner where it looked like we might get away with shooting for a little while, we'd jump out of the van and try to do it there."
Levine was also trying something different — acting in a movie for the first time. As someone who experienced firsthand what it's like to go from an unknown to enormously famous nearly overnight, he was uniquely qualified to play a character who did the same thing.
"Having that happen to you is a very unique and highly unnatural situation to be put in," Levine says. "The things that kind of went haywire as a result ... it's not going to be a smooth transition."
"That's what connected me to this (character)," Levine says. "I saw so much of myself in him 10 years ago."
Despite the influence of music on Carney's life, he hasn't personally listened to it for some time, following the death of a family member.
"Music is too much for me to listen to because it's like an intravenous expression of emotion," he says. "I can't go there."

Phat Babes from Fat Tuesday
Finding beautiful women during Mardi Gras time is easy. That is cake. What is tough is finding beautiful women with clothes on. Now that is something that requires a little research.
As a Nawlins native, I have spent lots of time on Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras. I have seen topless women, men dressed as women, dogs in costume, women, women, women, and women.
If there is one thing to learn about Mardi Gras in New Orleans, it is that beautiful women come from all over the country ready to party like it's Cancun in the summer. And I have found a few tasty treats for all to enjoy.

LAS VEGAS (AP) Doug McDermott scored 27 points with nine rebounds to lead No. 14 Creighton over Arizona State 87-73 to win the Las Vegas Invitational on Saturday night.
McDermott, the tournament's MVP, was 10 of 19 from the field for the Bluejays (6-0).
Ethan Wragge added 13 points, hitting three 3-pointers for Creighton.
Freshman Jahii Carson led Arizona State (4-1) with a season-high 30 points. He also had seven assists and four steals. He was 10 of 11 from the free-throw line.
Carrick Felix finished with 17 points and five rebounds for Arizona State.
After trailing 45-36 at halftime, the Sun Devils cut it to 59-53 on Carson's three-point play with 12:21 to play. The Bluejays answered with the next eight points as the Sun Devils never came closer than six the rest of the game.
Arizona State cut the lead to six late in the final minutes.
However, Wragge answered with a 3-pointer from the right corner with 2:22 left. That started a 7-0 run to seal it.
The Bluejays outscored the Sun Devils in second-chance points, 14-0.
Creighton scored the game's first seven points and built a 27-9 advantage with 11:53 until halftime. The Sun Devils responded with a 13-0 run. Arizona State cut the lead 37-31, but got no closer the rest of the half.
This is the teams' first meeting since 1974.

It's looking increasingly likely that the Inter-American Court of Human Rights is going to have to decide whether same-sex couples' right to marry is protected by international law.
Activists in Costa Rica have announced that they'll start the process of suing their government after a civil union bill was blocked by conservative members of the country's legislature. Their suit would join one filed earlier this year by three couples in Chile. And the Mexican lawyer who successfully sued on behalf of three couples from Oaxaca, Alex Alí Méndez Díaz, told me earlier this month that he's also preparing to go to the Inter-American Court to broaden the ruling to allow same-sex couples to marry across Mexico.
Though the United States does not recognize the authority of the Inter-American Court (big surprise), most Latin American countries do. If the court were to rule that same-sex couples have the right to marry under the American Convention on Human Rights, it could lead to equal marriage rights across the region. Continue reading

Elvis Costello Announces Fall 2012 'Centenary Shows'
It's rare that musicians are around to celebrate their 100th birthday with the rigors of a concert tour. Elvis Costello, who was born in 1954, is fully aware of this and has announced six solo concerts in California for this fall that he is calling "2054 – The Centenary Show."
"This show may contain any song I've written," he said via press release. "Some you will know already, some are the hits of tomorrow. I'm playing this show now in the unlikely event that I'm not around to perform the songs on the appointed date. Don't be late, we're going to have a big time"
We're not really sure how this is going to differ from other Costello shows where, from our own experiences, he often pulls out obscurities from his incredibly vast and diverse catalog. And his Spectacular Spinning Songbook concerts with the Imposters prove that anything can happen whenever he takes the stage.
Still, Costello, who will turn 58 in August, may have to rule out some of his more complex songs because they won't translate well to a solo guitar arrangement. But if it means there's a possibility of hearing, say, 'Strict Time' or 'Town Crier' instead of the 19,248th performance of 'Alison' or "Veronica,' we'll be sure to be in attendance if these shows come anywhere near us. Just please, Elvis, nothing from 'North.'
Elvis Costello 2054 – The Centenary Show Tour Dates
9/24 – Redding, Calif.
9/25 – Chico, Calif.
9/26 – Arcata, Calif.
9/29 – San Luis Obispo, Calif.
9/30 – Santa Barbara, Calif.
10/02 – Irvine, Calif.

Both superintendent finalists for the Wachusett Regional School District have withdrawn their names from consideration for the post.
At a special meeting of the Wachusett Regional School Committee Tuesday night, a motion to name district Director of Operations Darryll McCall as a finalist was withdrawn, leaving the committee with no candidates, and no superintendent as of Aug. 31.
School committee Chairman Duncan Leith recommended that the search for a new superintendent be left to the next school committee, which will have at least six new members following the annual town elections in the district later this month. However, the board took no action on the recommendation.
"What we should do is let the new members have their say," Mr. Leith said.
Susan Sullivan, director of human resources and clerk of the ad-hoc superintendent search committee, said she plans to file an Open Meeting Law violation complaint related to the search committee's deliberations and decision. The complaint was unanimously supported by the full committee.
Interim Superintendent Anthony Gasbarro assumed his role in December, following the resignation of Thomas Pandiscio. Mr. Gasbarro was hired to be interim superintendent through June 30, but indicated he would stay on through Aug. 31, if necessary.
"We have received letters or emails from both candidates indicating that they feel it was better to withdraw their names from consideration," Steven Hammond, chairman of the district's superintendent search committee, said.
After the two finalists, Paul Schlichtman, coordinator for research, testing and assessment for the Lowell public schools, and Casey Handfield, principal at Auburn High School, were named last week, some School Department staff, community and school committee members took to social media to make a case to add Mr. McCall to the list of finalists.
Mrs. Sullivan's complaint alleges that a member or members provided information from the executive session deliberations and votes to other members of the school committee and members of the office staff in direct violation of the committee's explicit procedures regarding notifying the candidates. By forwarding the complaint to the attorney general's office, an investigation is expected to take place.
Mr. Handfield's letter of withdrawal, which was read into the record at the meeting, states that the "highly politicized nature of an internal candidate not being sent forward as a finalist, coupled with the actions taken by the supporters of the internal candidate to be added as a finalist, has caused me to conclude that it would be extremely difficult to work with the Wachusett Regional School Committee in any meaningful manner."
Mr. Schlichtman, who resigned by email, said he withdrew his name to preserve the integrity of the search process. His email was not read at Tuesday night's meeting.
"The email that I sent said, 'It is my understanding that the other candidate has withdrawn his name, and in that context, I feel compelled to withdraw my name,' " Mr. Schlichtman said. "You can't have a search process with only one candidate."
Mr. Schlichtman said he was still interested in working for the Wachusett school district, and that if there is another superintendent search process, he would apply.
"I enjoyed meeting the committee, and I would be honored to work with them," he said.
Although a special meeting does not usually have a period of public comment, because the room Tuesday night was filled with nearly 100 teachers, staff and community members, the school committee voted to allow public comment, after the news of the two candidates' withdrawal from consideration was announced.
Jason Hilton, a social studies teacher at the high school and Holden resident, chastised the committee.
"I am disappointed and frustrated by the lack of leadership this committee has shown since the crisis last August," he said. "This is the single most important decision this board has to make over the next several years. You need to get it right, and from what I've seen, you're not."

MASS Communications has been voted a Top 50 Channel Program of 2012 by readers of Channel Partners magazine.
MASS Communications was selected from more than 200 nominees comprised of carriers, resellers, master agencies, and hardware and software vendors. The New York-based switchless reseller provides services including PRI, DS-3, SIP, dynamic T1, conferencing, high-speed Internet, Ethernet-over-copper, VPN, disaster prevention, automatic failover and risk management from dozens of carriers and other suppliers. It targets SMBs.
Channel Partners annually asks its readers to determine the communications industry's 50 best indirect channel programs; this year's list features 11 first-time appearances, reflecting the industry's shift from traditional to IP, cloud, unified communications and other bandwidth-intensive services. The compilation further contains more IT-centric companies than in years past, highlighting the convergence of the telecom and IT channels.
"Each year, Channel Partners readers tell their suppliers and peers which companies have earned their business, and this year is no exception," said Khali Henderson, editor-in-chief of Channel Partners. "What is significant about 2012 is the number of first-timers to the list as the indirect channel latches on to convergence, the cloud and evolution related to technology and sales techniques."
The most recent Top 50 survey took place in July and the results were compiled from responses given by more than 700 qualified channel partners, including master agents, subagents, independent agents, VARs, dealers, consultants and brokers. Qualified participants cast their votes for their preferred carriers, service providers, resellers, hardware and software vendors, and master agents, ranking them as standouts for factors including ease of doing business, quick quoting, responsiveness, extra support, higher commissions and better SPIFFs.
All 50 winners will be recognized during the general session at the Fall 2012 Channel Partners Conference & Expo on Sept. 12 in Orlando, Fla., and designated as a 2012 Top 50 Channel Program winner in the Channel Program Guide online. Candidates for the Top 50 Channel Programs came from the 2012 listings of the Channel Partners Channel Program Guide, self-nominations and write-in names. Voting took place in July.
For more than two decades, Channel Partners has been the leader in providing news and analysis to indirect sales channels serving the communications industry. It is the unrivaled resource for resellers, aggregators, agents, brokers, VARs, systems integrators, interconnects and dealers that provide network-based communications and computing services, associated CPE and applications as well as managed and professional services.

Main Site - :: Why Won't God Heal Amputees? ::
For clarity:We were called to a non believers house. The house in the community we live in is know for "ghost " activity. The family would report to us that kitchen drawers would be open and even knives being thrown at members of the family. They all reported seeing dark wispy figures in their rooms and sounds such as foot steps, voices, and thumps.
This particular night the young man was drunk and challenged the what ever was in the house to dwell within him. He open a legalistic door which the demon walked through. The young man became violent as he was speaking in multiple voices to the family. The went further to physical violence in which the husband physically choked the young man out to get him under control. When we arrived the young man had black eyes, spoke in multiple voices, and stated that there were many in him.
By the way the pastor I was with holds a doctorate in counseling and he interviewed the young man. In the misty of all that was going on we finally hear the young man's voice. through a process he accepted Christ giving us authority to move forward. If he had not accepted Christ we would have walked away. Through prayer, and spiritual discernment God delivered the young man.
I will discuss this with the people involved but I am very reluctant due to the abusive nature of people here. I am not schizophrenic but it is so like the medical field to just throw labels on people.
I would love to go to an mental hospital with the gifting God has given me and prove to you God's discerning power. You do not have to tell me anything about the people I will let god. Prove me wrong or right. But would you have the mental ability to handle truth if you saw. The answer is probably no. You in your ration mind with see and justify so you do not have to believe it.
To reiterate was with a trained counselor and this was not something made up in our minds. It was real whether you choose to believe it or not. Deception is the plan of any enemy and the best part of deception is not knowing you are being deceived. Ever person cn be decieved one way or another.
You want proof ask emily how she slept after inviting a legion of demon in. Do not play with this demonic Rhelm!
Just becuase you do not believe it does not mean it is not real. I have never seen you do this mean you are not real. All the posting could be one person with multiple personals. Thus I am not real and that makes you a schizophrenic.

With the world's most hunted terrorist dead, the U.S. is on high alert hoping another attack doesn't happen, but could you spot a terrorist if one were living next door to you?
We all better learn how to spot 'em because the experts agree, the best way to combat terrorism is through the eyes and ears of the American public.
At some of our busiest airports, security agents are studying travelers' behavior.
Highly trained agents, can use something called the facial action coding system or "facs" that can read a person's most subtle micro-expressions to tell if they're lying.
High tech surveillance cameras can even be programmed to identify someone whose facial expressions are different from others in line but those tools aren't available to us.
Dr. Gregory Moore, director of the University of Notre Dame's Center for Intelligence Studies says all of us should learn how to spot a terrorist. How do you distinguish a tourist taking pictures and a terrorist surveying a target? Are they taking pictures of the scenery, or of a high security facility?
Someone spending too much time looking at a public building, taking notes, copying blueprints, timing response times, and stealing uniforms so they can gain access.
"It really boils down to this, if you see something, then say something," said Moore. "It's not a perfect process, but asking the American public to be the eyes and ears to help combat terrorism may our most effective weapon."
Of course there will likely be many false alarms but as Dr. Moore points out, "but what if you're right, what if you're right?"

When I hear the words, "What do you think of debt settlement?," I cringe. I gird myself for a frustrating discussion with desperate debtors looking for a quick fix to a problem they've spent years creating.
When I hear the words, "What do you think of debt settlement?," I cringe. I gird myself for a frustrating discussion with desperate debtors looking for a quick fix to a problem they've spent years creating.
They want to get rid of their debts as easy as it takes to bake a potato in the microwave. They want the phone calls to stop. They want the letters to stop coming. They need to get rid of the stress they are experiencing.
And so they want to believe - need to trust - the advertising from debt-settlement companies that claim a significant reduction of debt for just pennies on the dollar. One firm promises in its online ad that "if you owe $30,000, you could resolve your debt in as little as 24 to 48 months." The statement comes with a fine-print caveat saying that including fees, clients still end up paying as much as 75 percent of what they owe. And there is no guarantee the program will work.
There you have it. The hope of nuking the majority of your debt away in a short period of time is a pipe dream for most people.
Only about one in 10 consumers participating in debt-settlement programs actually ends up debt-free in the promised period of time, according to a consumer alert issued recently by the nonprofit National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys.
Debt-settlement companies promise to act on your behalf to negotiate with your creditors to reduce your debts. Typically, customers are told to stop paying their bills and instead send money to the debt-relief firm that holds on to the money with the intention of offering creditors a lump-sum offer for less than what's owed.
"Bombarded with slick radio and Web advertising falsely promising a smooth road to being debt-free in a short period of time, these companies prey on the most desperate victims of the economic downturn," said Ed Boltz, a North Carolina bankruptcy attorney and incoming president of the consumer bankruptcy association. "These particularly vulnerable consumers usually end up getting sued, stuck with outrageous fees, more deeply in debt and far worse off in terms of their credit score."
One of the biggest problems with debt-settlement programs is that they encourage consumers to default on their debts, Boltz said
Federal rules put in place two years ago aimed at reining in bad players in the industry now make it illegal for debt-relief services to charge upfront fees. Companies that sell their services over the telephone can't get paid until they successfully settle or reduce a customer's credit card or other unsecured debt.
If you're thinking about debt settlement, go to FTC.gov and search for "Debt Relief Services." Read the advisory by the consumer bankruptcy association at nacba.org.

I think I'd like to start an internet movement. Due to Apple's recent actions regarding the Google Voice app, I intend to criticize Apple every day at OSNews for 1984 days, or until they perform a very subtle and simple act of contrition. I'd like to enlist the help of every tech journalist, blogger, twitterer, Facebook denizen, and person who ever talks to another person. I'm that girl in the running shorts with the hammer, people! I'm throwing the hammer at the big creepy guy on the screen! We don't have to be slaves anymore! Read on for the full manifesto.

Update: 82 year old woman dies in I-93 crash in Canterbury; motorist killed in Loudon accidentBy DAN SEUFERT
Union Leader Correspondent
August 26. 2013 7:36PM
Two people were killed late Monday afternoon in separate accidents between 5 and 6 p.m. on Interstate 93 in Canterbury and on Route 106 in Loudon.
A police spokesperson said an 82-year-old woman died when her car left the northbound lane of Interstate 93 in Canterbury, just beyond Exit 18, a few miles short of the rest area, at about 5 p.m.
Police said the woman's BMW sedan went off the road onto the left shoulder, hit a rock and rolled over several times before landing on its roof.
The victim's name has not been released because extended family members have not been notified. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
A second person died in an accident on Route 106 in Loudon shortly after 5:30 p.m., a police spokesperson said. The name of that victim and details of the accident have not been released.

As the Heat-Bulls series has just proved, regular season wins don't mean much during the playoffs. And this Heat team is obviously not the same one that Dallas played during the regular season.

I have a feeling the Mavs will prevail. Dirk is playing on a whole new level, and while Miami has more star power than the Mavs, the Mavs have a much more complete team and much more depth and height. And these Mavs seems much more psychologically stronger than the one that collapsed in '06.

I don't think you guys realize how much easier the Miami offense will have it against Dallas... after playing Boston and Chicago back to back two of the top 3 defensive teams in the league Miami is going to be loving the space they're getting.... and who's the other top defensive team? Oh that's right it's Miami....
Bosh plays Dirk reasonably well, Haslem (along with Posey) did the job in 06, Joel should do alright on him and Lebron is one of the the most versatile defenders in the league and will get his time on Dirk as well. Dirk has struggled against smaller and more active guys before.. Haslem and Posey in 06 and Captain Jack in 07...
OTOH who's going to stop Lebron, Wade and Bosh? You only have one Marion.

If there was an X factor that made a reasonable, unexpected difference in this game, it was probably Chalmers. 12 points in limited time is a good effort. That would be what Dallas would have hoped to get out of Barea, but Miami really kept him out of the game.

Ouch! Miami needed that win to position themselves better for the three straight games at Dallas. Now Miami needs to win two of three in Dallas to maintain the upper hand, a tough chore.
While I think the Mavs (especially Nowitzki, Terry, & Kidd) deserve a ring with this probably being their last shot and Miami is definitely going to be back multiple times in the next four or so years, I would rather see Miami win so maybe all the LeBron hate may die down a bit. Sports fans take this shit too personally sometimes (I admit to being guilty of that too). Plus Miami have couple of older guys that may not be there in the coming years that I think deserves a ring as well in Bibby, Mike Miller, and Ilgauskas.
Edit: Man, Dallas picked a wrong time to go make it to the Finals. If the Mavs win, it's not going to how they won, but rather how Miami didn't win. That's going to suck.

After sharing my favorite Hair and Eyeliner tutorials (and my own Hair tutorial) I will move on to ...... the Lashes!
All I know is that when it comes to Eye Lashes you will have to go through a trial and error phase for sure (of course I'm talking about the Falsies) and I have seen Trial and Error in Falsies! I have seen it all from friends showing glue roots and to fake lashes hanging half way the cheek (I can totally imagine this happening on the perfect Date) But don't worry.. I did find some tutorials to live by!
1) Curl your Eye Lashes!
Curling your Lashes would be commandment number 1.
Did you know you can curl your eyelashes after applying your mascara? It's something a lot of people like to do for a look that stays all day (you would need to wait at least 5 min for the mascara to dry)
the secret to Lash Curling:
2) Find Your Perfect Mascara!
This could very well become a Forrest Gump scene where I could spent the next hour or so naming all the Mascaras, there is Volumizing Mascara, Lengthening Mascara, Fiber Mascara, Blue Mascara, Pink Mascara... very well, you get the idea...
Fact is that the shape of the wand and the type of Mascara do make a difference, whether you want a natural look, longer lashes or Full looking lashes. Look at the Beauty Departments "War of the Wands" post to see what a difference the wand alone makes! You will need to find Your perfect Mascara!
3) False Eye Lashes
Oh the fun! The reason I am all for it is picture number 6 in my collage which means I would need to master the individual lashes and would need to master how to apply them on the bottom line (the Beauty Departments Mini Falsies and Mastering Falsies tutorials are a great way to start)

TERRE HAUTE, IND. -- Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology sophomore Jimmy Miller (Indianapolis/North Central) scored a career-high 32 points, and the Fightin' Engineers earned their eighth straight men's basketball victory by a 74-56 count over Franklin College.
Miller finished 9-12 from the field and 11-12 from the free throw line with seven rebounds in the first 30-point game of his career. He also became the first player on the current roster other than preseason All-American Julian Strickland to record a 30-point game.
Strickland provided 17 points and six rebounds of his own on 7-15 shooting with two assists and two steals. Sophomore Tyler Duffy (Fishers/Hamilton Southeastern) also reached double figures with 10 points and four assists.
Senior Alec Houpt (Chesterton) pitched in with seven points and a career-high 10 rebounds, including five offensive boards, for Rose-Hulman.
Bailey Howard returned after missing the last two games due to injury to lead the Franklin offense with 17 points. Terry Sargent also reached double figures with 11 points for the Grizzlies.
Rose-Hulman and Franklin battled to an evenly contested first half, with the Fightin' Engineers leading 27-26 at the break. Rose-Hulman jumped out to a 15-4 lead in the first seven minutes, before the Grizzles battled back to within 15-14. The margin remained within three points for the rest of the first 20 minutes.
Miller exploded for 23 points in the second half to lead Rose-Hulman's charge. The Fightin' Engineers went on a 6-0 run to take a 35-28 lead on a three-pointer by Miller at the 17:23 mark. The lead reached double figures after a three-pointer and a layup by Miller at the 12:45 mark to push Rose-Hulman's margin to 45-34.
The lead reached 18 points at 52-34 after two straight layups from freshman Collin Wojcik (Schererville/Andrean) and two free throws by Miller. Franklin could not close within 12 points the rest of the way.
Rose-Hulman improved to 11-3 on the season and is tied for first place in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference standings. The Fightin' Engineers are joined at 6-1 in league games by Mount St. Joseph, who visits Hulbert Arena on Saturday afternoon. Franklin stands 6-8 overall and 3-4 in conference play.

The Sacred Heart University women's lacrosse team rallied from an early 4-0 deficit to defeat Northeast Conference host Saint Francis U Sunday afternoon. The victory improves the Pioneers to 3-7 overall and 1-1 in the league, while the Red Flash fall to 4-6 on the season and are also 1-1 in conference play.
The Red Flash jumped out to a 4-0 lead just 7:12 into the game, but the Pioneers rallied scoring four of the next five goals, with Jenna Liljeberg, Shelby Vaccaro, twice, and Brianna Schussler netted goals to make it 5-4 SFU with 7:46 to play in the first-half. Danielle Conwell scored for the Red Flash with 6:00 remaining until halftime, which was answered by Jesslyn Joseph with 1:33 to play, sending the game to intermission with the Pioneers trailing 6-5.
The Pioneers jumped out quickly in the second-half, with Vaccaro tying the game 1:59 into the period and Alyssa Pearce giving Sacred Heart its first lead, 7-6, 3:02 later. Pearce scored again with 19:42 to play in regulation, which was followed by a Schussler free position goal at the 18:58 mark to give SHU the 9-6 advantage. Demi Lopez netted the Pioneers sixth consecutive goal with 16:23 to play in the second to push Sacred Heart's lead to four, 10-6.
An 8-meter tally for Katie Schaaf at the 15:33 mark ended Sacred Heart's run and the two teams alternated goals over the next 5:24, with the score 11-8 in favor of the Pioneers. Caitlin Delaney (8:17), Vaccaro (7:52), and Schussler (6:54) scored three in an 83 seconds span to push the advantage to 14-8. Saint Francis scored twice in the final 5:26 for the final margin.
Kelly Keenan made seven saves in earning the win for Sacred Heart. She allowed nine goals in 59:59 of action, picked up two ground balls and caused a turnover. Delaney and Lopez both had three ground balls to lead the team in that category, while Alison Braig and Joseph both recorded three draw controls.
Vaccaro had six points on the afternoon, with four goals, while Schussler, Pearce, Delaeny, Joseph, and Liljeberg all had multi-point games as well.
The Pioneers took fewer shots, 21-18, in the game, but finished with a 14-13 edge in ground balls. Both teams had 13 draw controls in the game and both finished with three free position shots.
Savannah Shores allowed 11 goals, against two saves, in her 48:20 of action as the starter for SFU. Heather McKee finished off the final 11:20, allowing three goals. Conwell scored six points, four goals, for the Red Flash, while Kimberly Gronski picked up a game-best six ground balls.
The Pioneers begin a three game homestand on Friday, April 11 versus Mount St. Mary's. The game is set for 3 p.m. on Campus Field.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Sainey Nyassi, who is continuing his come-back from a hamstring injury he suffered in early February, scored the game's only goal in the 62nd minute as the New England Revolution Reserves defeated the Columbus Crew Reserves, 1-0, on Gillette Stadium's Lower Practice Field on Sunday morning.
This morning's match was the second meeting between the two teams in a week as the clubs also played last Sunday, June 10, in Columbus, with the Crew earning a 1-0 victory.
Nyassi, who made just his second playing appearance since the injury, gave the Revs the go-ahead goal when he knocked in the rebound of a John Lozano header that Crew goalkeeper Matt Lampson initially saved.
Both teams settled into the game with few opportunities into the attacking third, but the match opened up in the final 20 minutes of the first half. Columbus Bernardo Anor had two strong efforts – a shot from distance in the 25th minute and a free kick attempt the 30th minute – but both were just wide of target.
The Revs countered Columbus' opportunities with a pair of their own late in the half. Following a Julius James yellow card for a tackle on Diego Fagundez in the 37th minute, Kelyn Rowe's free kick made it through traffic, but was deflected right to Lampson. Then, in the 39th minute, Alec Purdie's rebound attempt from six yards out off guest player Dimitry Imbongo cleared cross was high of frame.
Two minutes after subbing on in the 60th minute, Nyassi put the Revs up with his goal. The teams played through the midfield with neither squad threatening until the final 10 minutes when Columbus went to a 3-4-3 in an attempt to find the equalizer. Cole Grossman worked combination play into the final third and got a shot off from the top of the area in the 85th minute, but it was right at Revs goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth. In the 88th minute, Aaron Horton's headed shot made it through traffic but was just high of the crossbar.
With the win, the Revolution Reserves improved to 2-2-1 (7 pts.), while Columbus moved to 4-2-0 (12 pts.) on the season.
The Revs will see their next MLS Reserve League action on June 23 at Toronto immediately following clubs' first-team game at BMO Field. Columbus returns to action on Sunday, July 22, when they host the D.C. United Reserves.
