The following text was transcribed from chapters on the history of education in individual Kansas counties found on pages 203-213 in:
SHAWNEE COUNTY (by Josiah Jordan, county superintendent) -- The early history of education in Shawnee county cannot be made up from official records; in fact, very little of the early work in the schools of Shawnee county was recorded in any manner, and it is only by a diligent search through old letters, newspapers and miscellaneous documents in possession of old settlers, and owing to the fact that the writer is somewhat of an antediluvian himself, that some information has been gleaned that may be found of interest to the student of educational progress. There is no doubt that the unwritten history of the early 50's would make what Jim Lane used to call "mighty interesting reading."
The records in the county superintendent's office furnish very little information as to the schools previous to 1865. The reports from that date to 1880 are more complete, and the reports from 1880 to 1892 are full and in excellent order. In 1855, there were several private schools in the county. It is not possible to ascertain when the first school was opened. Miss Sarah C. Harlan taught a school in Topeka in the fall of this year. The school was held in a small shanty made of cottonwood boards, until the first snowfall. This had a depressing effect. The teacher got married, thus establishing a dangerous precedent which her followers have maintained to this day. In the spring of 1856, private schools were taught in Topeka by Miss Jennie Allen and Miss Carrie Whiting. Schools of this character were also in progress at this time at Rochester, Tecumseh, Auburn, and other parts of the county. Only a partial list of names of these pioneer teachers of the early 50's can be obtained. The names are: Sarah Harlan, Jennie Allen, Sarah Allen, Carrie Whiting, Olive Packard, Maria Bowker, Phoebe R. Plummer, and Jennie Penfield.
It must be remembered that these teachers were the sisters, wives and daughters of that sturdy, patriotic class of pioneers who came to Kansas not only to subdue the prairie sod and make homes for themselves, but they came to uphold and fight if need be, for the great principle of human liberty involved in the free-State issue. Those brave women who gathered abut them in sod houses and log cabins the children of "Bleeding Kansas" are, perhaps, more deserving of a place in history than are some of the more noisy "statesmen" of that period. But those women teachers left a monument more enduring, more precious to the State, than any marble shaft or stately granite tomb. The barefoot boy who went trudging across the prairie to school, his ragged straw hat just visible above the prairie grass and golden rod, is the patriotic, active, pushing citizen, the "Kansas man" of 1893. The West knows him and respects him, the East is just getting acquainted with him, and the world will know him quite well before the "Fair" is over.
In 1858 and 1859, the tide of immigration to Kansas and Shawnee county swelled proportionately as the echoes of the border war died away. Men came with their families and their goods, and settled down to stay. Shawnee county was soon fairly well settled with a most desirable class of citizens. The schools began to assume a more systematic condition.
In 1859, Rev. R. M. Fish was elected county superintendent of schools. The oldest document on file in the superintendent's office is a notice of the organization of district No,8, known as Rice district. It is dated July 30, 1859. There is no doubt that Superintendent Fish organized several districts under the territorial law this year, as the report of the Territorial Superintendent of Schools reports 14 districts in the county organized in 1859.
The schoolhouses were mostly built of logs. The writer well remembers the first schoolhouse built in district No. 11, where he was taught his letters. The house was built in 1862. The logs were bought of Burnett, the chief of the Pottawatomie tribe, who died on the banks of the Shunganunga, a lazy stream that flows peacefully along the shadow of Burnett's Mound, a familiar landmark to the inhabitants of Shawnee county. Our fathers hauled the logs with ox teams, and built the schoolhouse on the Fitzpatrick homestead, near the Burlingame road. The house was "chinked" between the logs with sticks, stones, and mortar; but certain lawless, tow-headed boys would ofttimes knock the chinking out, in consequence of which acts the ventilation was all that could be desired—rather more than was agreeable, in fact, on cold mornings.
But the first school in this district was held in a long shanty owned by the Rev. Jesse Stone. It stood near the present home of Perry T. Foster. The first school was taught in 1857, by Miss Olive Packard, a live Yankee girl of 16 summers. Her career as teacher was cut short by the arrival of a certain young man, who persuaded her to change her name to Mrs. Wm. Owen, and again the ranks of Shawnee county teachers met a loss. But Mrs. Owen did not lose her interest in the educational affairs of the county, as she is the mother of 10 living children, five of whom have taught school in Shawnee county.
School district No. 23, now the city of Topeka, was well supplied with schools, judging from the local papers of that time. The Emigrant aid Society erected a four-room brick schoolhouse, near the corner of Fifth and Harrison streets, in 1856. The Topeka Association afterwards bought the building of the aid society, and used it as a public schoolhouse for a number of years. In the fall of 1859, November 20, D. B. Emmert opened an evening commercial school in Museum Hall, Topeka. The Topeka Normal School opened in the brick schoolhouse, above mentioned, in November, 1859. The advertisement states that Prof. C. W. Bowen, A. M., was principal, and Miss Jennie Penfield, preceptress. The Topeka Academy, E. B. Conklin, principal, assisted by Mrs. H. E. Conklin, Mary E. Steele, and Clara Foster, opened September 12, 1859. The announcement was made that the following branches would be taught: Reading, spelling, writing, arithmetic, geography, grammar, U. S. history, Latin, Greek, and music on the piano and melodeon. In 1860, W. W. Ross, clerk of district No. 23, made a report, giving the names and ages of all the persons over five and under 21 years of age in the district (Topeka). The total number was 191. There were 50 enrolled in school. On March 12, 1860, Miss Mary Pickett opened a select school at the brick schoolhouse. Her terms for tuition were $3 per month.
In 1860, the clerk of district No. 1 (Auburn) reported 108 pupils of school age, and an enrollment of 86. Miss Brigham taught a nine-months school, receiving $32 per month. District No.3 (Wakarusa) reported 21 children residing in the district. A six-months school was taught three months by "Mr. Thomas" and three months by "Miss Holliday." The district clerks in those days did not bother themselves or the superintendent with the teachers' given names. Mr. Thomas was paid $20 per month, and Miss Holliday $10 per month. It is to be presumed that Miss Holliday "boarded around. District No. 20, Geo. B. Holmes, clerk, reported a three months school taught by Miss Sarah W. Austin, who received $12 per month and board. The following notation is made by the clerk: "Bill for board of teacher, $24. We shall probably be able to raise enough money to pay out teacher her wages, but not enough to pay the board bill." District No. 22, now College Hill, reported a three-months school in 1860, taught by Jane F. Nichols. District No. 4 maintained a four-months school, and paid the teacher $25 per month. Seventeen children attended school. Robert Simmerwell was district clerk.
The drouth of 1860 is still remembered by those living here at the time; and it was owning to the failure of crops and general hard times that more than half the districts in the county failed to sustain any school. A great many of the homes were deserted; the prairie, parched and desolate, was dotted with empty houses. All honor to that noble band of teachers who kept the sacred fires of education burning throughout those days of trial, while the hot winds withered the grass, burned the corn, and dried up the springs. It was indeed a year long to be remembered by Kansas people. John Brown's death, the election of Abraham Lincoln and the intense political excitement of the times all serve to impress other events of a peaceful nature on the mind of the old timer.
In 1861, Rev. Peter McVicar was elected county superintendent. The civil war began, and Shawnee county sent many of her best men to the front. The reports of this year are meager, and indicated that but little was done in the line of education. But one clerk's report can be found for 1861 which shows a school taught during the year. James S. Griffing, of district No. 8, reports a three-months school, taught by Miss Marcia Pierce. She was paid $30 per month—an indication of the subsequent "war prices." Sixteen pupils were enrolled. Reports from a number of the strongest districts in the county show that no schools were in session in those districts. Of course, schools were maintained at Topeka, Auburn, Tecumseh, and perhaps two or three other points, but it seems that they were private schools.
In 1863, 20 clerks reported to the county superintendent that there were 978 pupils of school age (5 to 21) in the county, 593 of whom were enrolled. The average daily attendance for the entire year was 395. The average length of school term was four months. The teaching was done by 18 women and 2 men, who received a total amount of $1,280.10. In 1865, nine more clerks reported than in 1863. The total number of pupils of school age had increased in two years from 978 to 1,499. The enrollment had almost doubled, being 1,022. There were 37 women employed in the county as teachers, who received an average salary of $28.50 per month. The five men teachers employed this year received an average of $41.20 per month. A steady increase in school population is shown until 1870, when there were 4,500 pupils of school age in the county, nearly five times as many as there were seven years before. The number of districts had increased from 14, in 1860, to 57, in 1870. There were 3,000 children enrolled, with an average daily attendance of 1,670. The school term averaged 61/2 months in length. There were 85 teachers in the county. The men were paid $50 per month, the women $35. It is interesting to note that the average wages of women teachers has gradually been nearing that of the men for the past 30 years in Shawnee county. The highest wages of any teacher in 1892, in the district schools of the county, is paid to a woman. The next highest is also paid to a woman. District No.83 pays Miss Emma P. Cooper, $85 per month, and district No. 97 pays Miss Eliza Nagle $80 per month. Nine women teachers in Shawnee county receive $60 per month and upward this Columbian year.
In 1880, a most astonishing increase in school population is shown. Let us compare the statistics for 1880 with those of 1870. In 1870, the school population was 4,500; in 1880, 9,258—more than double. In 1870, there were 3,000 pupils enrolled; in 1880, we find more than twice that number, viz., 6,077. The average daily attendance has increased from 1,670 to 3,542. In the year 1880, there were built nine schoolhouses, making a total of 91 in the county. In 1870, there were 52 in the county, six of which were made of logs. During the decade from 1870 to 1880, the last log schoolhouse disappeared, from the reports, at least.
The report for 1892 is before us, and we briefly summarize it, as follows: There are 98 organized school districts in the county. The school population is 17,079. There are 10,797 children as pupils, with an average daily attendance of 7,472. It takes 228 teachers to train this little army—82 men and 146 women. The men receive an average salary of $58 per month, the women $50 per month. The value of the school property of the county is estimated at $671,232. There are 240 schoolrooms in the county. The amount of money raised and collected for school purposes during the year was $256,000; the amount paid out, $197,000; leaving a balance on hand for the year of $59,000. The educational system of the county is in a most satisfactory condition, although far from perfect. In 1889, the present (1892) superintendent introduced a plan of graduation and classification which has unified the work of the county materially. A systematic record of the work of each pupil is kept in a permanent register, separate from the attendance register. A new teacher can, by referring to this, ascertain just what work has been done by the pupils the previous term. Reports of the classification, graduation and standing of each pupil are sent twice each year to the superintendent—at the end of the first month and at the end of the term.
A uniform system of text-books is used throughout the county, having been adopted September, 1891, for a period of five years. The books in use are as follows: Barnes's series of readers; White's two-book series of arithmetics; Butler's geographies, descriptive and physical; Reed's Speller; Hutchinson's Laws of Health, and "The House I Live in," a primary physiology; the Eclectic United States History; Harvey's English Grammar; Powell's "How to Talk;" Roudebush's Writing System; Thomson's Intellectual Arithmetic; Thomson's Algebra; Gage's Physics; Williams & Rogers's Bookkeeping; Graphic Object Drawing; the International Dictionary; Townsend's Shorter Course in Civil Government; and Canfield's Local Government in Kansas.
Soon after the adoption of these books, the writer prepared a "Course of Study for the Schools of Shawnee County," which is now in use. It is adapted to the needs of the teacher in the district school, and makes the gradation of the district school practicable. The normal institutes of Shawnee county have been a great help to the teachers. There were few institutes held in the early days. The first institute ever held in the county was April 21, 22, and 23, 1865. Lectures were given by Rev. P. McVicar, Prof. C. H. Haynes, and Hon. I. T. Goodnow. Discussions of practical questions of interest to teachers were also held. In 1876, a four-weeks normal institute was held Miss Una Hebron, who was then county superintendent, managed the institute, and it was very successful. In 1877. a normal-institute law was passed, requiring each county superintendent to hold a normal institute in his respective county, for a term of not less than four weeks. Under the provisions of this law, successful normal institutes have been held each year.
Teachers' associations have been maintained regularly since 1880. Previous to that time they were not very successful or regular. A program is prepared and printed in September each year. The meetings are usually held on the afternoon of the first Saturday in each month. Papers are read and discussed; current events are discussed; scientific and literary topics are introduced. The teachers derive great benefit from these meetings. In 1892, a new feature was added, lectures by prominent men of Topeka being given every other month. This has proved a pleasing and satisfactory innovation, and it is quite likely that it will be a permanent feature in the association programs of the future.
The school buildings of the present are of a somewhat different style of architecture from that of 30 years ago. Instead of the rough log structure standing on a slope of prairie surrounded by a wealth of wild grass, golden rod, and wild roses, forming a romantic and picturesque subject for poet or painter, the Shawnee county schoolhouse of 1892 is of a more practical and prosy nature. It is generally built of wood, is neatly painted, and usually surrounded by a neat fence, and by graceful shade trees. In a district before mentioned, where the writer learned his ABC's, the old log house has been replaced by a handsome frame structure, with a low porch in front, surmounted by a stately belfry. It is finished tastefully inside, and has two cloakrooms, and a library well filled with choice reading matter for all grades. The school is well supplied with the latest maps, charts, globes, blackboards, and is seated with handsome, comfortable furniture.
One district, No. 35, has built a brick schoolhouse costing $10,000; and there are several that cost $4,000 and upward. Nearly one-half the schools are supplied with good libraries. Many school boards furnish daily papers, magazines and literary papers for daily use in the schoolroom.
It must be said that there are a few districts in Shawnee county that have almost stood still for 30 years. There are schoolhouses that are dirty, out of repair, yards unfenced, outhouses in a disgraceful condition, windows broken, no school apparatus. But such schoolhouses are rare exceptions.
The lowest wages paid any teacher in 1892 was $30 per month. There is a growing demand for trained teachers. The school men and school women and the parents are realizing that it does not pay to train teachers at the expense of their own children. They see the advantage of good normal schools, and the time is not far distant when a young man or woman will not attempt to teach in a public school without first having received some professional training.
On the 21st day of October, 1892, the schools of Shawnee county observed the four hundredth anniversary of the greatest discovery the world has ever known. "Columbus Day" was more generally observed, and in a more fitting manner, than has been any other special-day observance in the history of the county. Nearly every schoolhouse raised a flag and followed the official program, as prepared by the national committee. It is common in most of the schools of the county to observe Washington's birthday, and quite a number of the schools have had flag floating over them for several years.
The public schools are a source of pride to the people of Shawnee county. They recognize in them a fuller source of power, and an intellectual force more potent than that of the fabled Hercules in the physical world. They see, in the patriotic, energetic, busy boys in the public schools at the close of the nineteenth century, a foreshadowing of the high-minded, intelligent, God-fearing citizen of the great American republic, who will enter the twentieth century equipped for the high destiny awaiting him.
When the five hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America shall be held, let it be held in Kansas—the exact geographical center of the greatest republic the world has ever seen. At that time, the center of population will have shifted far to the westward, and Shawnee county will be near the center of the most remarkable agricultural region on the face of the globe; the Anglo-Saxon will have long since ceased his restless and resistless march towards the setting sun, and will have quietly settled down in the bosom of the American continent, there to solve the great problems of future centuries.
Washburn College (by Luther D. Whittemore, professor of Latin language and literature) -— This institution was chartered February 6, 1865, under the name of Lincoln College. The name was changed to Washburn College, November, 19, 1868, in recognition of a gift of $25,000 from Ichabod Washburn, of Worcester, Mass., and to avoid the confusion resulting from the use of the name of Lincoln by other institutions of learning.
The plan of organizing a Christian college of a high grade under the patronage of the Congregational Churches of Kansas was first presented at the meeting of the General Association of Congregational Ministers and Churches held in Topeka in April, 1857, when a committee was appointed to secure a location for such a college.
The first building was erected in 1865, at the corner of Tenth and Jackson streets, in the city of Topeka. This building was afterwards purchased by the board of education, and is now used for public-school purposes. The present site of the college, including 160 acres of land, was donated, in 1865, by Mr. John Ritchie. In 1872, work was commenced on the building which is now known as Science Hall, and in the fall of 1874 the college was moved to this building, in which for several years its whole work was carried on. In it were chapel, recitation rooms, laboratories, lodging rooms and study rooms for faculty and students, dining room, and kitchen. In 1879, Hartford Cottage was built, as a home for young women; and, in 1882, South Cottage, since destroyed by fire, was erected, to accommodate the increasing number of lady students. In 1882, the building now known as Music Hall was erected, as a dormitory for young men. In 1886, two buildings were completed: Halbrook Hall, as a woman's home, and the Boswell Memorial Library, named respectively in recognition of gifts from Miss Mary W. Holbrook, Mass., and Mr. Charles Boswell, of Hartford, Conn. The last building erected is the chapel, which was completed in 1890, to the building of which Mr. W. A. Slater, of Norwich, Conn., contributed $15,000. In 1889, the interior of Science Hall was remolded and adapted to the needs of the scientific departments. The total cost of buildings erected and owned by the college is not far from $150,000. The total value of all college property, including land, buildings, library, apparatus, museum, and endowment, is about $500,000. This property has been acquired chiefly by individual donations.
January 3, 1866, an academy or college preparatory department was opened to students, under the charge of Rev. Samuel D. Bowker as principal, and Mr. Geo. H. Collier and Mr. Edward F. Hobart as assistants. In June, 1866, Rev. H. Q. Butterfield was called to the chair of the Latin and Greek languages, and in 1869, he was elected president. Doctor Butterfield resigned in November, 1870, and in February, 1871, Rev. Peter McVicar was chosen president.
The first board of trustees included five men who are still members of that body: Rev. Peter McVicar, Rev. S. D. Storrs, Rev. Richard Cordley, Mr. H. D. Rice, and Maj. H. W. Fransworth. The board of trustees at present is composed of the gentlemen just named and Rev. James G. Dougherty, D. D., Judge David J. Brewer, LL.D., Mr. Albe B. Whiting, Rev. L. Blakesley, D. D., Mr. Charles W. Jewell, Hon. Solon O. Thacher, LL.D., Hon. T. Dwight Thacher, Samuel F. Mather, M. D., Rev. L. Payson Broad, and Mr. S. H. Fairfield.
When the school was opened, in 1866, the courses of study offered were a college preparatory course of three years, consisting chiefly of Latin, Greek, and mathematics, and a ladies' course of four years, in which instruction was given in French and some subjects in science. In the following year, a collegiate course of four years was added, in which Greek, Latin and mathematics were the prescribed subjects, until the third term of the junior year. In the remainder of the junior year, and in the senior year, limited courses were offered in philosophy and science. In the third year of the history of the institution, a scientific course was introduced. These courses have been modified and enlarged from year to year; and there are now offered a college preparatory course, requiring three years of study for its completion, and collegiate courses of study leading to the degrees of bachelor of arts, bachelor of science, and bachelor of letters. The elective system has been introduced, making it possible for a student to select some line or lines of study in language, science or literature which he may pursue for several successive years, thus deriving the benefit that comes from consecutive study in one subject. Work is prescribed in a sufficient number of subjects to prevent a student from omitting those studies which should find a place in every thorough system of education.
Subjects which are prescribed for one degree are open as lectures to students studying for the other degrees. For graduation, a student is required to complete 15 full courses of study in addition to the work in English and rhetoric. Of these 15 courses, seven are prescribed and eight are elective. Unless otherwise indicated, the courses of instruction continue through an academic year.
Below are the names of the professors and instructors, together with the courses of instruction offered in each department in the academic year 1892-93. The letter A., S. or L. indicates that the subject so designated is prescribed for candidates for the degree of bachelor of arts, bachelor of science, or bachelor of letters, respectively.

Member Blogs > Journey of a BooksellerA Pinch of Poison by Alyssa Maxwell
Mon, 26 Dec 2016 09:00:00 PermalinkHaverleigh School for Young Ladies is a proper young woman's school where those who are privileged attend. Some common girls get scholarships but they aren't really welcome. However privileged these girls might be, it doesn't protect them from murder. When the head mistress eats a small cake for dessert after a public event, she suddenly chokes and dies...
Kensington Books and Net Galley allowed me to read this book for review (thank you). It will be published December 27th.
Phoebe and her housemaid and partner in crime, Eva, are at the dinner along with others who were working on the fund raising event. They aren't sure if she choked, had a heart attack or what. They are very surprised to find she's been poisoned.
From here, the mystery grows. There's a handyman around that has mental challenges. The nurse seems to be scarred by her war service. There's a younger assistant to the head who would like to have her position. Who would have murdered her?
This is a mix of trouble from the past meeting up with trouble in the future. The killer didn't know the substance would kill her. The bad man is most unexpected. Eva and Phoebe both have a romantic interest even if they aren't thinking about marriage. I can't wait to see how that turns out in the future.
The ending is quite appropriate. The conspiritors involved in the death end up dead themselves. Justice served itself this time.

text: The First Readings the last couple of days at mass have been the Joseph Story. This is a wonderful story, so much so that it is a favorite of Hollywood. Literary people often call it the first short novel (novella) in literature. The story contains everything: pride, jealousy, hatred, false accusations, suffering, revenge, and ultimately forgiveness and redemption. We wouldn't be surprised to see Joseph execute vengeance on his brothers for what they did to him, but his heart softens and he forgives and restores. God does that with us. He forgives and restores us to His friendship. "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us."

Original Story of Dracula, Food Truck Spooktacular to be Held at Worcester Memorial Auditorium
Monday, October 17, 2016
The event will take place on Thursday, October 20 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.
"So many people are rediscovering the Auditorium, or discovering it for the first time. We hope the renewed interest in this historic gem can generate some excitement as we search for a project that preserves its historic character and updates it for modern use," said City Manager Edward Augustus, Jr.
Food trucks include The Dogfather, The Grill Daddy, Sabor Latino, Say Cheese, Press'n it, and Sun Kim Bop.
"Nosferatu is the granddaddy of all vampire movies-both creepy and beloved; it still sends chills up your spine during certain sections and somehow seems to capture the essence of Mary Shelley's writings. All the characters are right there on the screen and each one will get special musical treatment during this live improvised pipe organ accompaniment.
Might there be some real vampires lurking in the auditorium? Come and find out!" Said Peter Krasinski, Dean to the Boston Chapter of the American Guild of Organists.

3.2. Improved services of existing small ports to improve local and regional mobility and contribute to tourism development
Archipelago and Islands
01.07.2016 - 31.03.2020
The project will make a joint architectural vision for small ports in Nagu, Dalsbruk, Lickershamn and Ronehamn, to address the need for high-quality, green, functional and accessible services. By making a joint plan and joint investments, the same high quality level of construction in participating ports can be guaranteed. The joint vision will be used by the individual ports in order to make the investments executable on the local level. The ports will invest into improved service buildings that are green, family-friendly and accessible to all visitors.
Joint marketing will inspire visitors to travel between regions and will show them that it is possible to get high quality services in several small ports in the archipelago, even off-season. The small ports will develop a network between each other that will be used for further joint development and marketing, and the ports will set a standard for other popular small ports to strive for.
The project can be a model for how other small Baltic Sea Region ports can upgrade their infrastructure and use joint marketing in the future.

I haven't written about real estate for a while. That is not because it is not profitable. To the contrary, investing in real estate is fine and once a rental operation is on track it is a bit boring. But then the best businesses are often boring.
In fact, most of the time, the longer you own your property the more profitable. Say you own a paid-off house that you bought 30 years ago for around $100,000 near the center of a large city. Chances are that over the years your property has quintupled in value, i.e. the place is worth $500,000 or more. Even better you can probably rent it out for close to $2300 per month if not more.
That means that per year your rental income is close to $27,600 After you paid, say $3,000, in property taxes and another $1500 for maintenance you hold close to $23,600 per year of cash in your hand… and with build-inflation protection!. How does that compare to your Canada Pension Plan? Hmmm.. and did you know that you can defer your taxes on that rental income using depreciation?
So if you wanted to retire with an annual income of a bit over $100,000 all you'd need is ownership of five(5) such properties! Of course, you can make it fancy and play Reichman or Pocklinton using oodles of leverage and end up somewhat bruised (too say it nicely) or, if lucky, you'll become the next 'The Donald'.
Yes, if you're greedy or don't think long term things get a lot more complex. If you'd read the newspapers you'd think right now that Canada's real estate is about to go into collapse or at least is going through a soft or hard landing depending on the day or brand of news paper you read. In reality this is far from the truth. Yes, things may be a bit top heavy in Toronto and in Vancouver's condominium markets but that is not Canada's entire real estate market!
Real estate is driven by local economic growth, population growth (natural growth and by immigration) and of course it is driven by how friendly the local governments are towards real estate. All these factors vary greatly across Canada's provinces, territories, cities and rural areas. Canada is not one real estate market – it is highly fragmented and there are quite different rules, regulations and even tax regimes across our country.
Yes, Vancouver and Toronto are our largest markets, but conditions in Waterloo are quite different than in Toronto and conditions in the small towns and cities of the lower mainland away from Vancouver proper differ significantly as well. In Calgary the market is different than in Edmonton while both cities have 'balanced' real estate markets without transfer taxes and provincial sales taxes; with reasonable landlord or tenancy regulations; no rent controls and low vacancy rates. Compare that to Ontario!
So next time you read those hysterical headlines in our national newspapers, ask yourself, what market are those guys talking about? Do these guys even know what they're talking about or are they just trying to scare you into buying a newspaper or turn on the news channel?
Talk to realtors in your neighborhood or in the area you're interested to invest. Don't talk to one; talk to several. There are all kinds of realtors – some specialize in family homes (most do); some actually understand small investors; others specialize in commercial real estate; some know about the inner city; others know about condominiums; yet others sell you strip malls or recreational properties. Find the right realtor for you and then learn about your market of interest. Avoid bidding wars – they involve overpriced properties more often than not. Don't buy from developers - these guys are often very good at selling you own-sided (and I am not talking your side) deals that are mostly speculative in nature. Then, once you know your market make your move and buy that property that one day will be a cornerstone of your own private pension plan.

Sponsored by St. John's Episcopal School just east of White Rock Lake in Dallas, Texas, Cub Scout Pack 55 is proud to be a part of the Circle 10 Council and the Tejas Caddo District.
With almost 80 members, Pack 55 is one of the largest Packs in the District, and we take pride in the programs we deliver to our Scouts. Almost all our Scouts are 1st – 5th graders at St. John's Episcopal School.
Our goal is to foster the Boy Scouts of America's vision of building our youth into conscientious, responsible, and productive boys by instilling in them lifetime values and developing ethical character traits as expressed in the Cub Scout Motto, the Cub Scout Promise, and the Law of the Pack – – which you can see in the right hand column of this page. We want to create an environment that fosters a sense of community while keeping Scouting fun.
We currently have 3 Tiger Dens, 1 Wolf Den, 2 Bear Dens, 1 Webelos I Den, and 2 Webelos II Dens. Each of the Dens are led by an adult Den Leader and at least one adult Assistant Den Leader. All are trained and current in their required training. Pack 55 sets aggressive training expectations for our parent leaders – – called Akelas – – that meet or exceed the goals of the Boy Scouts of America. Our sons deserve trained leaders, and our leaders deserve to be trained.
Our Scouts usually have 1 to 2 Den meetings a month and at least one Pack meeting or Pack activity a month. Pack meetings are held one Tuesday night per month from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the St. John's cafeteria. We believe our leadership, adult participation, organization, camaraderie, fun, and programs differentiate our Pack from other organizations. We are funded primarily through yearly dues and Scout popcorn sales in the Fall.
Annual Pack activities include:
Although we encourage participation in District-led and Council-led activities and camps, we currently do not schedule activities as a Pack during the summer.
For prospective Scouts, please feel free to contact our Cubmaster, John DeGroote, at for any questions or additional information. An alternative point of contact is our Committee Chair, Hillary DeGroote, who may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

When I apply this, I put my hair back and spray it all over my face, about 2-3 sprays in total. You can see a picture of silly old me about to spray this on my bare skin. Yikes! Yes guys, my skin is not perfect! But it has come a long way in the past year and half.
You can see close up the effect that this has on the skin. Here is my bare skin of my hand without any product:
And then afterwards, with one spray of this on the skin. See how it looks more luminous? And it does not look wet, the mist is really fine.

Ahhhh Switzerland….I had no idea how much I missed it until we crossed the border and suddenly everything was so SWISS again. After the complete culture shock of moving from Canada to Switzerland five years ago, I thought the transition from French-speaking Switzerland to Paris would be so simple. It certainly was easier (speaking the language helps!), but I'm constantly amazed at how different the two places are. As much as I'm loving life in Paris, it was so special to back and enjoy a long weekend with family and friends!
Marc and I chose to come back for a couple reasons, the primary one being that we were overdue to see his family…he has a young nephew and nieces, and they are growing up WAY too fast! It was also the weekend of the Swiss Alpine Battle, which is a CrossFit competition that takes place in a mountain town called Villars. It's organized by friends of ours, and we have worked at the event the past couple of years. We had a little less time to hang around this year so we didn't volunteer, but we knew that the event would be a great opportunity to catch up with all our CrossFit friends.
The journey went really smoothly- the rental car company upgraded us to an Opel Zapira, which is a seriously ugly, family-sized car. I would never willingly own a car this hideous, but I am willing to admit that it was sooooo spacious and comfortable for our road trip- Murphy had enough space in the trunk to do a full yoga routine (which he did every 100km or so… he is a firm believer in getting his stretches in).
The drive took about six hours which felt LONG. I know, I know….I've become soft after living in Europe for so long; six hours is only about half the length of the drive between Calgary and Vancouver and I used to do that without blinking! We packed lunch and stopped only twice to let Murphy run a little and to get coffee. Most of the journey is on tolled motorway, which means there are rest stops every twenty kilometres or so, some only with restrooms and picnic areas, while others are fully equipped with restaurants, grocery shops, cafes, etc. The tolled motorway is annoying and expensive, but the rest stops do make life easier on the road- I'm a big fan!
We stayed with Marc's older brother Sylvain, his wife Lorraine, and their three kids: Kyle, Ellie, and Charlotte. It was so great to see them all again and get caught up on what's going on in their lives. Marc and I are genuinely terrible communicators. We are both very much 'out of sight, out of mind' people, and we haven't made the effort we should have to stay in touch with his family. It's been five months since I moved (six for Marc), so we had lots to catch up on! The kids are adorable, they love Murphy soooo much!!
We went to the Marché in Vevey on Saturday morning, which was wonderful- Marc and I used to go quite often, so it was a cool walk down memory lane. It was quite funny though, I always remember it as being super busy, but I guess living in Paris has shifted my perspective on crowds a little. Marc and I spent the whole time wondering where all the people were!
CrossFit was a huge part of our lives in Switzerland, and I was so excited to go to the Swiss Alpine Battle (SAB) this year and see all our friends. It's such a cool competition: it takes place in Villars, which is a beautiful mountain town, and the venue is pretty small and intimate. There are always 'super teams' who come from all over the world, and you get a chance to meet/watch crazy athletes. This year we got to meet: Sam Briggs, Patrick Vellner, Lindy Barber, Jen Smith, Lukas Esslinger and Adrian Mundwiler. They are all such nice people- Pat Vellner even apologized to us for being sweaty after a workout….so Canadian!!
We also used this visit as a great opportunity to catch up with our old neighbourhood friends, Tony and Fiona, who kindly took Murphy while we went to the competition and then had us in for an epic curry night.
Next to the people, what I miss the most about Switzerland is the mountains. We didn't have spectacular weather while there, but the scenery was still stunning- I sincerely believe this is the most beautiful place in the world. Murphy agreed, he was absolutely jumping for joy to be back!
All in all, the six days we were away flew by, packed full of fun with family and friends. It was completely wonderful, but we were still happy to get back in the car and head back to Paris…. head back home. Having multiple homes is such a strangle thing. I feel so divided sometimes: I am from Canada and proud to be Canadian, but I also consider Switzerland and Paris to be home….even though in both places I will always be an étrangere (a foreigner). It's strange but I love it, and I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to live in so many amazing places.
Anyways, this has been a long one, so I'll wrap it up here. Thanks for reading, and please follow my instagram if you want to see what I'm up to these days (@murphy_takes_paris)! In a week Marc and I will be heading to Amsterdam and meeting my parents there, so there are more travel stories to come!
Until then,

We have carpet! Finally! You'd think choosing carpet would be quick and simple. Pick your color, texture, order. Done.
I wanted grey and brown carpet to go with the slate look tile in the basement. But there are 1 million options for grey and brown carpet. I lugged home 6-8 sample boards filled with carpet squares. It took forever to commit over which 4x4 sample would look the best spread across my basement.
Some were way too grey. Most were way too light. This would be a basement with a bar, and kids running around. It had to be able to both hide stains and look good.
I finally narrowed it down to 2 options. I then basically decided which was the lucky winner by playing eeny meeny miny mo. We measured and ordered. The carpet would butt up against the tile in the basement bar, and be in the hallway and guest suite.
We went with Weathered Wood by Shaw. After the baseboards were installed, the carpet layer came and finished the whole basement in a few days. He did a great job. It seamed up very nice.
I'm happy with the texture, and the level of softness-- but only about 50/50 with the color in the end. Most of the time it looks great. But, if you catch it in the right light it can give off too much of a grey + brown tone, which can almost be a shade of purple! Not in all lights, just a certain time of day. Which is so weird to me! However, I think when we actually have furniture in the room and the right lighting, it will brighten it up and pull some of the lighter shades out. It will be less grey/brown/purple than what I'm seeing right now. It's just a sea of carpet!
The carpet being installed did help me to decide that while furniture shopping, we need to go for the light colored furniture not the brown I was originally leaning towards. Shopping for a couch has all been a pain in the rear for us, I'm hoping the hunt for a comfy sectional does not follow the trend.
In all, we love having the basement carpeted and moved playtime with Ben down stairs immediately. There is so much more room to run..and since we have hardly anything else down there, less things for him to get into! We will be spending so much time in this space!

Calf # 4 arrived this morning. Another heifer (I think)
Jul 25 2009
Our Charolais/Murray Grey heifer delivered a heifer calf this morning. The father is one of the top performing Italian Piedmontese sires, but this wee girl does not look a big calf. Its interesting how dark she is – considering both mum and dad are white (although Piedmontese have dark skins). Last year one of our Murray […]

Well, not really! This is a small write up on front page of "Rural News" today. I'm not trying to push the returns up for beef farmers (well, I am a little). I'm all for higher returns for better quality, and lower returns for poor quality. Once this happens, guess what sort of stock will […]
Calf # 3 arrives – a bull calf
Jul 19 2009
Late last night Cow #207 delivered a beautiful bull calf. If he is as good as his older brother from last year, I will be very happy. Its a Simmental/Pied X so will be great eating for Lake Farm Beef – poor fellah!
First Piedmontese calves arrive early
Jul 18 2009
Whilst away Skiing – two of our Simmental Cows gave birth to a healthy heifer each. I feel very guilty, because they are not supposed to arrive for another week (based on last years long gestation)."Mandy" has a really white faced calf, and "107" give birth to a feisty heifer with a white blaze.

Being new to the beef industry, and coming from a sales and marketing background I believe I have a pretty open mind – I have to, if I'm going to learn anything.

Hi All,
Actually it is the beginning of Dec. 07 and Saturn and Uranus are in loose conjunct. Below is part of an article about what to expect from these times. To read the whole article goto:
In 2008 the planets Saturn and Uranus will make an aspect of opposition between each other. What is interesting is that it happens around the time of the American election. Saturn in the sign of Virgo, around 17 degrees will oppose Uranus in Pisces, marking a real strong, controversial political campaign.
Saturn in Virgo shows over concern for the details because the tendency of Saturn towards perfection puts too much weight on Virgo's natural sense of order. It can brings obsessive concern for undue details. What is essential and what it is not, will be a main issue on the individual and national level. Saturn is conservative, limiting, structuring, stabilizing the form-aspect in life.
Uranus in Pisces, on the other hand, can act in both directions scattering the two fishes on opposite side, or trying to synthesize the two in a common orientation.
Often the results are in a "washing away of the status quo". The Old versus the New - Consolidation versus Intuition. It is very much expected a strong activist protests, all over the world, challenging the prevailing social conditions.

Domenii publicaţii > Stiinte ingineresti + Tipuri publicaţii > Articol în revistã ştiinţificã
Autori: Zagan R., Petculescu P.
Editorial: Journal of Optoelectronics and Advanced Materials, vol. 9, no. 6, p.1803-1807, 2007.
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the frequency spectrum of the ultrasonic response of a cryogenic material sample using a nondestructive method. The experimental measurements presented here were obtained by the direct contact method using silicon gel as the coupling medium with the pulse-echo technique, with a 5MHz transducer (Nortec). The instrumentation consisted of an IPR-100 signal generator, an A/D-90 converter and SMC-4 step by step motors from Physical Acoustic Corporation, a sampler and a spectral analyzer. The ultrasonic testing of the welded cryogenic material 10TiNiCr180 was made in the base material (point A1) and in the weld (point A3) without being exposed to a thermal treatment (sample B). After that, the material was exposed to the following thermal treatments: first – welding + hardening (sample 2) and the second welding + hardening + annealing treatment (sample 2p). Because Spectral Peak Ratio was known, it was possible to determine the grain size which was compared with the one obtained by the metallographic analysis. It is noticed a decrease of the grain size after the first thermal treatment (46.5 µm), but a small increase after the second thermal treatment (48.7µm), and we identify some resonance numbers of frequencies 1.46MHz, 2.468MHz, 2.719MHz, using ultrasound spectroscopy obtained by Power Spectral Density.
