Michael David Cameron, an Adams County sex offender who admitted molesting a 9-year-old family member more than 50 times, can't be found and a warrant is out for his arrest.
The warrant comes a few weeks after Denver police Sgt. Larry Valencia, who tracks homeless sex offenders in the city, expressed concern that Cameron couldn't be adequately supervised by his Adams County probation officer if he was living on the streets of Denver.
Cameron was sentenced to intensive supervised probation for his offenses which is the highest level of supervision outside of prison. But when he became homeless in November, he wasn't allowed to register in Adams County because he doesn't have a brick and mortar address.
The registration requirements for homeless sex offenders are inconsistent in Colorado leading some cities, such as Denver, to absorb the population and make sure they are in compliance. The legislature is due to take up the issue in the next session.
Cameron was given a list of shelters by his probation officer and sent on his way. Cameron chose to register to a street corner outside the Denver Rescue Mission on Nov. 15.
Valencia says the last time anyone saw Cameron was at a shelter on Thanksgiving Day.

For a budget-friendly purchase, you'll never go wrong with the EL1012A from Electrolux. This is a powerful two-in-one cordless vacuum cleaner with a built-in handheld vacuum that comes at a very affordable price of around $105.
The Electrolux 2N1 Ergorapido cordless vacuum is equipped with excellent features that the company is well known of.
Above all, it is a stick and a handheld unit rolled into one, making it more advantageous than any other vacuum cleaners.
The Ergorapido's slim and lightweight feature makes it suitable as a handheld unit wherein you can bring it closer to areas where dust and dirt accumulates.
The motorized aluminum brush roll has a powerful cyclonic dust that is able to maintain suction longer for greater effectiveness in terms of cleaning process.
This affordable cordless Electrolux vacuum cleaner has wheels that make it highly maneuverable even on hard floors. And with its unique 180° swivel head, there is no chance that all those debris cannot be suctioned off.
What makes the Ergorapido unit great is that you can grab it anytime you want because it is always charged and ready to move and clean. There is no need to be pestered by cords, plugs, and outlets because all you need is to store and rest it in its charging base—and viola, it is always ready whenever you are in the mood for cleaning.
The charging base can be mounted on the wall, saving you a lot of space. It has a dusting brush and a crevice stored together with the charging stand, which allows all those hard-to-reach surfaces to be cleaned without sweat.
And you don't have to worry about getting your hands dirty when emptying the dust cup because it has three different ways to empty it without touching.

Attorneys finished their closing arguments Wednesday morning in the case of a 12-year-old boy who admitted to shooting and killing his father -- a leader in the National Socialist Movement -- as the Southern California man slept on the family's couch in May 2011.
The boy, who was 10 at the time of the shooting, faces a murder charge that the defense argued Wednesday should be downgraded to a voluntary manslaughter charge. Defense attorneys claimed domestic violence, child abuse and violent video games "neurologically damaged" the boy and programmed him to be violent.
Attorney Matthew Hardy told the court the boy was trying to protect his family from his father, Jeffrey Hall -- the regional director of a neo-Nazi organization. He claimed the boy's mother encouraged him to kill the father.
"[The boy] saw what seemed to be a simple solution to his problems," Hardy said. "Stop the violence.
"He certainly did not know the wrongfulness of his actions."
The boy did not testify on the stand during the trial, which began in October. A recorded interview with a detective was shown in court.
If found responsible for Hall's death, the boy could remain in juvenile custody until his early 20s.
Prosecutors, who called the shooting a "case that shocks the conscience," claimed the slaying was not related to the father's neo-Nazi beliefs.
During the trial, prosecutors attempted to portray the boy as having a history that led to "cold, calculated murder." The boy was kicked out of as many as nine elementary schools for bad behavior, prosecutors said.
He allegedly stabbed a teacher with a pencil once and choked another with a telephone cord.
"It's time for [the boy] to learn that the legal system works," said Deputy District Attorney Michael Soccio, referring to the past cases. "It is beyond obviously clear that [the boy] knew what he was doing was wrong at the time of the killing.
"[He] is talked about almost as if he's an idiot. That may be a good defense in court, but it's just not true."
The boy's sister testified during the trial that the boy told her she planned to kill the father. Prosecutors played an audio recording on which the boy's sister said, "I thought he would hit him in the stomach."

Port Authority Chairman Resigns
David Samson is the Third Person to Resign in the Fallout of the George Washington Bridge Lane Scandal
TRENTON—David Samson resigned as chairman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey on Friday, marking the departure of another top ally of Gov. Chris Christie amid the fallout from the George Washington Bridge scandal.
Mr. Samson had been under intense scrutiny for weeks, after investigations into the lane closures led the media, legislators and federal prosecutors to examine the intersection of Mr. Samson's private business interests and his leadership of the bistate authority....

Since I could not find a working tutorial on this subject, I decided to write one and I hope it works for you as well as it has worked for me. I will break this down into five steps.
Let's begin:
1. This step can be done either through the Terminal or the Synaptic Package Manager.
In your favorite terminal, type or copy and paste this:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove gnome-screensaver
sudo apt-get install xscreensaver xscreensaver-gl-extra xscreensaver-data-extra
then click Apply and let it do it's thing.
* When I performed the above operation through the terminal, it reported that I never had gnome-screensaver installed, just something you may want to be aware of.
2. Open the Control Center and navigate to Startup Applications and add the entry in this screenshot:
and make sure it is checked.
3. Open Screensaver and see if the changes took place. If so, awesome! No need to go on. If not, continue to the next step.
* You could also try logging out or restarting the computer, but I didn't need to do either to see the changes.
4. Open your terminal and type:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove mate-screensaver
I borrowed the information in steps 1 and 2 from this thread: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 13&start=0
which didn't work for me, but I managed to figure out step 4 on my own which was the missing piece of the puzzle.
I hope you found this tutorial useful. Please let me know if if worked for you. Thanks.

Lables: Cong ethnic group, Ethnic Groups, Tibeto-Burman Group
Proper names: Xam Khoong, Phuy A.
Population: 1,261 people (1999 census).
Language: Cong language, as well as languages spoken by the Lahu, Phula and Sila, belong to the Tibeto-Burmese group (of the Sino-Tibetan language family), and is close to Burmese language. Thai language is also used in daily conversation.
History: The Cong traveled directly to Vietnam from Laos.
Production activities: The Cong mainly cultivate widen fields by hand, preparing their fields using slash-and- burn method. Recently, however, they have started to use oxen or a buffalo to draw ploughs, though in the past hand-held hoes were used to work the land. Gathering still plays a major role in Cong life. The Cong do not weave cloth, but they do grow cotton which they trade for textiles made by other groups. They are skilled in making rattan mats, ornamented with red dyes, and bamboo-woven containers such as gui (back carriers), baskets, cases, etc. Because the Cong settled down along the Da River, they have grown accustomed to using boats to travel along the river.
Diet: The Cong eat sticky and ordinary rice.
Clothing: Cong attire is similar to that of the Thai people. Some Cong families still keep their traditional costumes made with fabrics imported from Laos.
Housing: The Cong live in houses built on stilts. Each house comprises three or four bays with only one entrance and one window in the central bay. A defining characteristic of the Cong house is a kind of "flap seat" that no longer serves a particular function by is located along the interior wall on the facade side of the house.
Transportation: The Cong use boats to travel along the Da river. They use back baskets supported by a head strap to transport goods and produce and when they go to work in the fields.
Social organization: The Cong tend to live in medium- and large-sized villages. A high sense of communality exists among them. Women hold a prominent position in the family. There have not been signs of the gap between the rich and the poor among the Cong. In former times, the Cong were governed by Thai village officials. Although the Cong have a small population, they have 13 different family lineages. The majority of these bear Thai names such as Lo, Quang and Kha, etc. Traces of totemism are obvious in Cong taboos and rituals that worship animals and birds. Each Cong lineage has a leader, who is in charge of hosting spiritual activities.
Marriage: Monogamy is strictly observed. Polygamy and divorce are not allowed in a traditional family, a practice observed since ancient times.
Matrilocal residence is very strictly observed, lasting in the past from 8 to 12 years. In Cong tradition, the marriage offerings are made when the ceremony is held-often in the evening-for the installation of the groom into the family of his wife include a pack of salt, a box of tea, flax rope for weaving casting-nets or a bamboo container of can (pipe) wine, etc. These are offered when the bride's family asks permission for the groom to stay with her family. The morning following this ceremony, the boy brings a blanket, pillows and a knife with him to the girl's house and stays there. It is at this time that the girl starts wearing her hair knotted in a chignon on the top of her head, which shows that she is a married woman. The groom's stay with his wife's family ends once the couple already has some children. Then the wife brings her dowry to her husband's family. If the husband stays in the same village, he has to carry his wife on his back until he reaches his home. On wedding day, the couple will not wear new clothes because, according to traditions, water mixed with ashes Will be sprinkled on them.
Birth: Cong women deliver in the seated position. They have to follow many taboos before and after delivery. The Cong are well-known for their knowledge of herbal medicines that care for pregnant women.
Funerals: When a family member passes away, a ritual specialist is called to conduct services designed to take the deceased's soul to the ancestors. The date of the burial is carefully observed. Before the burial, an offering of rice is made in ritual ceremonies and traditional dances are performed in the evening, A simple grave house is built. Twelve days after the burial, an altar is set up in the family home. The deceased's sons indicate mourning for their parent with clean-shaven heads, while the daughters have their sideburns cut. They wear white headbands until the next festival of new rice.
Beliefs: Cong ancestors belonging to the second or third generation are worshiped on the occasion of Tet, the lunar New Year. The father hosts the worshiping services of his wife's parents. If the father dies, his wife will take his place. When the sons move away to live independently, each will set up his own altar at his new home. Ancestral offerings are often a bowl of uncooked rice, water in a bamboo container, and chicken. In the ceremony before the ancestral altar, the man- with the chicken in his hands-prays in front of the altar, kills the chicken on the spot, applies the blood on the perineum leaves, folds them, and attaches them on the wall together with some chicken feathers.
In the third month of the lunar year, ceremonies are organized just before the sowing of rice seedlings. Gates are set up on all paths leading to the village, with notices of taboos and no-entry for strangers.
Each family of the village also organizes their own worshiping services after they finish sowing the seeds. The ceremony takes place at night in the hut constructed in the family's fields. Fish and crabs are offered. The head of the family implores the animals not to destroy the crops. He then plants several Chinese shallots and prays that the rice will grow as well as the shallots.
Education: Cong customs and traditions are passed from generation to generation.
Artistic activities: The Cong often sing and dance on ceremonial occasions, especially weddings. Songs that are especially enjoyed are those that alternate between the families of the bride and the groom who gather at the foot of the staircase to welcome the couple. In addition, there is a marvelous dance performance by the bridegroom's sisters at the beginning of the wedding ceremony. They dance and hold aloft traditional gifts, including imitations of chickens and squirrels, which are presented to them by their brother.
Games: Children like to play games such as run and chase, khang, etc., and to play with bamboo toys.

Happy New Year to all our readers. This is a big year for Shakespeare. It's not a very well known fact, but Shakespeare played a role in winning the Olympic Games for London. Not only is he the most famous London resident of turn of sixteenth/seventeenth century London but also, according to the results of recent research by The Royal Shakespeare Company and the British Council, the world's most studied author. About 64 million – half the world's – school children study his plays and they are a compulsory component of the curriculum in scores of countries, including China, Azerbaijan and Vietnam. The Olympic Committee took Shakespeare's pre-eminence as a world cultural figure into account when they were considering the bids.
The Committee knew that Shakespeare was going to feature in the Olympic celebrations, and they were right. The Globe Theatre in London will be staging 37 Shakespeare plays in 37 languages, presented by theatre companies from those countries. It is going to be a wonderful feast, and an illustration of how universal Shakespeare's themes and characters are. An Iraqi company is doing a Romeo and Juliet in which the feuding Montagues and Capulets are transformed into the warring Sunnis and Shias. Tunisia's Macbeth draws strong parallels with the issues of dictatorship and rebellion that currently mark the Arab Spring. The world's newest country, South Sudan, is bringing a contribution.
I can't help thinking about the logistics of it. Think about all the actors, stage crews and the countless other people involved in theatre production converging on the Globe. There will be thousands. Where will they all stay, for example? And think about all the set changing. And what about the sets themselves? Will they bring them from their own countries or will they be hiring them? Are there enough firms listed as 'furniture hire, London' in the Yellow Pages or on Google to satisfy the demand? It is going to be a nightmare.
I have enough confidence in the organisers, however, to think that it will all go smoothly and that everyone will have a good time. We do these things well in London!

What a great day!!
NGS 2014 will be in Richmond, Virginia.
NGS 2015 will be in St. Charles, Missouri.
AND remember next year NGS 2013 will be in Las Vegas, Nevada.
I met the entire contingent from the FHSA (the Family History Society of Arizona). The two of them. I'd love to know if there are other attendees from Arizona other than George and Linda.
Today there were only three time periods for sessions.
At 11 am I was in a VERY crowded room. Tom Jones spoke on "Strategies for Finding 'Unfindable' Ancestors". I loved his comments about the search will be time-consuming, tedious and expensive (for travel). He provided 4 examples, which are available in the NGS Quarterly, of how to work around this problem. I think I liked the two comments about not expecting names to be spelled the same (I knew that, but it's good to be reminded of this fact) and that a person is more than his/her name.
Since I was not scheduled to attend one of the luncheons I had 2 1/2 hours to visit the vendor hall. I picked up some great ideas from the Oklahoma Historical Society booth on how to find some elusive ancestors. I also learned more about the familysearch wiki. I sort of understood it, but Paul Nauta spent time explaining more. Thank you, Paul. I briefly said hi to Lisa Louise Cooke, who sent her regards to all of us in Arizona. (In March she was the speaker for the Family History Society of Arizona's annual meeting.) I found some wonderful old postcards at Wolf's Head Books. A little costly, but oh, how great! AND I sat down for about 20 minutes. I really should go back later and look at some other states.
The first session after lunch I was torn between Ann Fleming's "Writing with Style" and Suzanne Adams "Paradigm Shifts When Searching Online Genealogical Records." Both had great pages in the syllabus. (And I really appreciate that. I definitely don't like to see syllabus pages that are in prose or that are double spaced just to take up space.) I went to the writing session. I learned that I need to make a style sheet for each project that I am writing and I need to be CONSISTENT. Even if it's wrong. Ann also reminded us that even if we intend to write "Just for our family" when it's out of our hands we really don't know where it will be. I wonder how many authors of family histories knew that there works would be in libraries of various types all over the country.
My last session today was "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury: The Evidence Presented Clearly Shows..." by Barbara Vines Little. I've never attended a session of hers. In fact, I don't know if I ever heard of her or have seen her on another conference schedule. WELL, NOW when I see her on the schedule I will definitely consider her presentations. She was great! Now, this was at the end of the day. The room was warm. The room was CROWDED!! And she's explaining the difference between a list-style proof summary, a narrative-style proof summary and a proof arguments. I'm quite sure no one went to sleep. What a lot of information in one short hour.
After a quick dinner I walked to the Cincinnati-Harrison County Library. Wednesday nights it is open until 9 pm. I know that tomorrow night it will be open for conference attendees until late (11:30 pm) but that's past my bedtime. I was curious what resources they had that may help me with my research. I think there were probably 40+ attendees in the genealogy section and as I left at least seven more were entering.
After walking back to the hotel, instead of writing this blog, or deciding what sessions I want to attend tomorrow, OR indexing, I looked at the catalog for the library and made a list (a long list) of items to look at tomorrow night. Well, perhaps I'll have to stay up past my bedtime.
Yes. A great first day at NGS 2012 in Cincinnati.

NGS - I met Kimberly Powell
How could I forget to mention that I introduced myself to Kimberly Powell last night? For those of you (only a FEW I hope) who don't know about genealogy.about.com, it's a great place to find information regarding almost anything about genealogy research. And I love all of the ideas for organization. Sorry Kimberly for interrupting dinner last night, but I was so pleased to see you in person.

Language is a dominant aspect of Lawrence Weiner's practice. Conceived as objective representations of states or processes rather than material realities, Weiner's works are capable of countless manifestations. Although their content is general and abstract, they remain inseparable from their presentation and context. These works could be defined as site-related; they are conceived in relation to the venue and circumstance. Whether the letters are stenciled, painted, or mounted in relief, the choice of typeface, size, placement, and color, varies with the site. The context serves as a vital factor for Weiner's works. A poster, artist's book, gallery, or public arena molds the work's meaning.
Various and versatile, Weiner's works at Dia:Beacon remain dispersive. Visitors interact with them among the sculpture galleries, in a stairwell, and in the café/bookshop. Suspended high over the admissions desk, the artist's Statement of Intent (1969) attests to his belief that "art always institutionalizes itself," regardless of placement. Such an active arrangement emphasizes the work of art is completed only through a viewer's potential reception and adoption.

Before the game, Frank Sinatra singing about his kind of town was piped into the Bell Centre and Montreal treated Hawks legends warmly during a pregame ceremony.
In the end, though, the Canadiens turned out to be rude hosts as they handed the Hawks their sixth straight defeat, this time 4-3 in overtime before a crowd of 21,273 in a matchup of Original Six franchises. The Hawks earned a point for the overtime loss and moved their season record to 19-19-4.
"There are a lot of guys who competed hard," Hawks winger Patrick Sharp said. "It would have been nice to come out with the win and break this streak, but we can take a positive out of the fact we gained a point."
The Canadiens' Guillaume Latendresse scored the game-winner 3 minutes 18 seconds into overtime, tipping a pass from Maxim Lapierre past Hawks goalie Patrick Lalime.
Lalime, who grew up about an hour from Montreal, stopped 34 shots, including a penalty shot, and was particularly strong in the third period when he made nine saves.
"For the most part we played a good game," said Lalime, a St. Bonaventure, Quebec, native, who was giving starter Nikolai Khabibulin a rest. "On the road here it's not easy, but I think the guys played well. You'd like to get two [points], but you have to look at the positive. We just have to build on it [Wednesday night against Dallas]."
Saku Koivu gave the Canadiens a 1-0 lead when he took a pass from Latendresse in front of the net, deked and scored against Lalime at 4:22 of the first period.
Jack Skille's first career goal 1:24 later gave the Hawks a 1-1 tie. Skille, playing in his fifth NHL game, picked up a rebound off a Duncan Keith shot and fired it past Montreal goalie Cristobal Huet.
"It's tough to lose a game like that in overtime," Skille said. "We played really well. We've had a tough record the past five or six games and it's a good thing we took them to overtime and battled hard. But it's too bad we didn't get the victory."
Lalime stood strong against a Mark Streit penalty shot at 9:46. With Montreal short-handed, Streit picked up an errant pass and skated in on Lalime before being taken down by Rene Bourque. Streit tried to fire a shot between Lalime's pads on the penalty shot but was denied.
The Canadiens eventually took a 2-1 lead when Patrice Brisebois floated a shot in from the blue line at 17:13 while on the power play.
The Hawks struck back quickly in the second as Robert Lang and Kris Versteeg scored 18 seconds apart. Lang's wrist shot from the top of the circle on the power play at 2:27 was his 15th goal of the season. Versteeg scored his second of the year when he poked in a rebound of a Yanic Perreault shot.
Andrei Markov's slap shot from the top of the left circle on the power play tied it at 3-3 at the 8:04 mark of the second.
"We've been right there the last three games," said Keith, who logged 34:14 minutes of ice-time. "We're in every game and we're getting our chances. They've been three really good games the last three. If we just stick with it and stay positive we'll battle through this."

BOSTON, Mass. – With four of the starting five finishing with 10 or more points the Huskies of the University of Southern Maine (12-4, 4-2 Little East) defeated women's basketball (5-11, 2-4 Little East) by the final score of 83-60 Tuesday evening in the Clark Athletic Center.
The four starters combined for 54 of the Huskies 83 points Tuesday evening. Leading Southern Maine was Courtney Cochran, who had 17 points on the night. She also finished with a game-high nine rebounds. Going into Tuesday's match-up Cochran ranked first in the Little East in both points per game and rebounds per game.
Nicole Garland added 14 points, while Haley Jordan finished with 13 and Erin McNamara with 10. As a team, the Huskies shot 50.8% (32-for-63) from the field, and 50% (9-for-18) from behind the arc. At the line they shot 58.8% (10-for-17).
UMass Boston had three of their starting five finished in double-figures, with freshman Lauren Perra (Taunton, Mass.) scoring a team-best 18 points on 6-of-12 shooting, which included five 3-pointers. Kirsten Morrison (North Reading, Mass.) was second on the team with her 15 points, and also managed nine rebounds and two blocks. Teresa Pina (Boston, Mass.) posted 12 points on 5-of-12 shooting.
A marjority of the Huskies points were scored in the paint as they looked to Cochran and Abby Hasson to score the lay-ups. When they couldn't turn to their two bigs, the Huskies would use the long ball to add to their lead with five different players scoring from 3-point range. Garland was responsible for three of the Huskies nine 3-pointers.
On the glass, Southern Maine held a 45-37 advantage. Both teams possessed the ball fairly well in the game, with the Beacons turning the ball over just 13 times, which is the second lowest total this season. Southern Maine combined for 14 turnovers in the win, with the Beacons earning 11 steals in the process.
After a back and forth first five minutes, Southern Maine was able to build a slim lead following an 8-0 run, which made 18-9. The Beacons then chopped that lead to four after Pina nailed a lay-up and Morrison converted on and-1 to make 18-14 with just over 11 minutes left in the first.
Unfortunately, Southern Maine would put together another run and quickly extend their lead to double figures over the last 10 minutes of play. Despite the score, the second half proved to be a much more consistent half for the Beacons. With both teams making shots the Huskies were able to maintain a solid lead over UMass Boston throughout the final 20 minutes of play.
Women's basketball returns to action on Saturday when they travel to Western Connecticut State University for a 1 p.m. Little East Conference game.

- 自治州 : Canary Islands
- 県/島 : Gomera
San Sebastián de La Gomera is the capital of this island. It is also known as "Isla Colombina" due to its historical links with the discovery of America. The city emerged around a natural bay and to this day has preserved numerous places and monuments of interest, such as the church of La Asunción, the Pozo de la Aguada and the Torre del Conde (Tower of the Count). Its excellent tourism facilties offer a wide range of leisure activities, including the chance to practice all kinds of nautical sports in the port area. Inland, hiking or cycling trails are the best ways of exploring the sheer mountainous landscape of La Gomera and some of its natural treasures, such as the Majona Nature Reserve and the National Park of Garajonay.
Founded in the mid-15th century by Hernán Peraza "el Viejo", San Sebastián de La Gomera developed as a town at the mouth of La Villa ravine. A few decades later, it had become a thriving commercial port and remains so to this day. The city is echeloned on a cliff overlooking the bay. The old House of los Peraza, situated in the spot now known as Pozo de la Aguada, is one of the city's main historic sites. Another place of interest is the centrally-located Plaza Mayor and the church of La Asunción, constructed on the site of an old hermitage. Situated at the centre of the bay is the so-called Torre del Conde, which has preserved its original apperance, and, on the outskirts, the hermitage of San Sebastián, dedicated to the saint from whom the city takes its name. Another cultural visit not to be missed is the Museo-Casa de Colón (the house of Cristopher Columbus), which highlights the important role played by the island in the discovery of America. TourismSan Sebastián de La Gomera boasts excellent tourism facilities. It offers for example a wide range of hotel accommodation, including a parador which, thanks to its position on a hill known as the Lomo de La Horca, has magnificent views over the ocean.At the port, visitors are reminded of the history of the conquest of America since it was here that Christopher Columbus stopped off in 1492 for provisions for his caravels en route to the New World. Nowadays the port boasts some of the finest nautical facilities in the whole of the archipelago, offering a wide range of leisure activities, such as deep-sea diving, sailing, submarine fishing and other water sports. As well as numerous daily crossings to the neighbouring island of Tenerife, the port also offers trips around the island by catamaran.By contrast, the rough terrain of the inland on La Gomera is ideal for outdoor sports such as hiking and mountain bike trails. The so-called Valle del Gran Rey (Valley of the Great King) provides an opportunity to explore an ancestral system of cultivation on the most improbable of terraces. Situated by the sea is a small port with hotels and apartments. Awaiting visitors in the south of the island is the tourist resort of Playa de Santiago; whilst situated in the north are the so-called Órganos, an unusual geological formation resembling the pipes of an organ.Most of the island's natural treasures can be admired in several of its protected spaces. Ravines and cliffs emerge along the length and breadth of the Majona Nature Reserve, which boasts lush vegetation and endemic species. A small sector to the south-east borders with the National Park of Garajonay, a natural space characterised by volcanic rocks. Awarded World Heritage status, it contains a major botanical relic from the Tertiary Era: the laurisilva forest. Food and WineCharacterised by its simplicity, the cuisine of La Gomera boasts several local delicacies that set it apart from the rest of the achipelago, such as "potaje de berros" (watercress soup) and "almogrote" (a paste made from goat's cheese). The island also offers the famous "papas arrugadas" (boiled potatoes) and "vieja" (a local fish). Meanwhile, palm honey is used as the basic ingredient for a rich variety of desserts.All of these dishes can be accompanied by any of the five Label Guarantee wines produced in the province: Abona, Tacoronte-Acentejo, Valle de Güimar, Valle de la Orotava and Ycoden-Daute-Isora.

Bestial Encounters
As children our first introduction to the alphabet is generally twinned with animals. "D is for dog" or "H is for Horse" become ingrained at an early age through the alphabestiary, an age old genre of children's books. These memory tricks help us learn the cornerstone of language. Yet paradoxically what separates us from truly understanding animals is the ability to communicate through a shared language. In 2010 the WAG was fortunate to have had the opportunity to acquire The Winnipeg Alphabestiary, a special project conceived and executed by international arts publication Border Crossings to mark their 25th anniversary. The artists selected were 26 exceptional creators who call Winnipeg home, whether they currently live in the city or not. The end result is a very unique collection of paintings and drawings of animals (real, imagined, and truly inventive) by some of Winnipeg's leading contemporary artists.
Highlighted against this distinct acquisition is another exceptional donation of works featuring animals whose form of communication is much different. For over 15 years acclaimed photographer Volker Seding visited zoos around the world capturing poignant and disturbing images of exotic animals in captivity. The result was a compelling portfolio of 58 images. Under the title Captive this series of works display a collection of living things in a harsh and unflinching light. Although these animals cannot speak, Seding captures moments where their eyes and body language offer a complicated tale of longing, pleading, and resignation.
Displayed alongside these two interconnected collections of works are a number of other pieces drawn from the WAG's permanent collection that deal with concepts around communication, language, animals, and collecting.

Chicago appears to have dodged the worst of an early-spring snow system that is dumping six to 10 inches on Central Illinois, according to the National Weather Service.
But according to State Police Sunday night, motorists traveling in Kankakee, Iroquois, and Ford counties should drive only if it is an emergency because ISP District 21 is under a winter weather advisory, according to a statement issued by state police.
As the storm continues to pass through the area, the roadways have become hazardous because they are snow covered and slippery, the statement said.
- Related
- The combination of snow and winds will cause roadways to become icy and dangerous to drive on and troopers are currently handling a number of vehicles in the ditch, according to the statement.
As of 9:15 p.m., I-57 near the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana campus is "almost at a standstill,'' as students from the Chicago area are trying to get back to school after spring break, ISP Trooper Tracy Lillard said in an emailed statement.
Interstates, state roads, and county roads are extremely dangerous due to the heavy snow fall, white out conditions, drifting snow, and wet and icy road conditions near Pesotum, the statement said.
Additionally, Indiana state police were reporting nasty road conditions in Carroll, Clinton, Benton, Warren, White, Montgomery, Fountain, and Tippecanoe counties, according to a statement.
I-65 between the 201 mile marker and the 147 mm have become slick with heavy snowfall causing major problems, the statement said.The Indiana State Police at Lafayette are currently working numerous slide-offs, several property damage crashes and one serious personal injury crash at the 182 mm, the statement said.
The interstate is open with some areas down to one lane. Traffic is moving at a very slow speed and in some areas there is a small back-up due to crashes.
I-74 is also slick with heavy snow buildup and police are working on several slide-offs and a property damage crash. The interstate is open but moving at a slow pace, the statement said.
Chicago appears to have dodged a bullet.
"It will probably be just some flurries and light snow showers this afternoon" within city limits, leaving anywhere from a trace of snow to an inch, meteorologist Bill Nelson said.As the system moves east, it's possible that areas along Lake Michigan will see an additional inch of lake effect snow overnight Sunday and Monday.
The storm has snarled travel and downed power lines while heading from Kansas and Missouri toward Illinois. It could deposit around three inches in Kankakee, according to the weather service, and six inches in Iroquois County, about 90 minutes south of Chicago.
By a little before 3 p.m., more than 8 inches had fallen in Springfield and 5 inches in Mount Zion, southeast of Decatur, according to the National Weather Service. Interstates in much of Central Illinois, from Bloomington to south of Interstate 70, were covered with ice and snow, according to the Illinois Department of Transportation.
Any snow that does fall in the Chicago area isn't likely to last. Temperatures hovered around freezing Sunday morning, with an expected afternoon high of 36 degrees. By Thursday, it could be in the mid-40s.
"We're sort of lucky," Nelson said. "Old Man Winter just doesn't want to give up."

Cruise Myths Cleared Up
With millions of satisfied cruise customers out there, it seems impossible that misconceptions about cruises still exist – yet they do. This is an opportunity to address five of the most common myths about cruising.
Myth # 1. You'll be bored because there's nothing to do. Nothing could be further from the truth. Depending on the ship, you can do most or all of the following: swim, sunbathe, exercise, enjoy a spa treatment, play games, socialize, dance, shop, see a show, watch a movie, attend a lecture, learn a skill, make crafts, tour the galley, climb a rock wall, work on your golf swing, ice skate, watch artisans at work – the list goes on. That's to say nothing of touring the ports of call.
Myth #2. You'll gain at least five pounds.Cruise ship food is plentiful and delicious, so there is the potential to gain – but it's far from guaranteed. If you participate in some of the activities mentioned above, you'll burn calories in an enjoyable way. Also, every cruise ship has plenty of healthy dining choices. You could even come back a few pounds lighter than when you left.
Myth #3. Cruising is for seniors.Cruising certainly is for seniors, but also for everyone else – kids with their parents, extended family groups, couples of all ages, singles alone, singles in groups, sports teams, club members, co-workers and more. Many cruise lines have special programs to keep kids engaged and help them make new friends on board. Some ships frequented by families also have "adults only" areas for quiet relaxation.
Myth #4. Cruises are too expensive.If you consider all the costs of land-based vacations – transport, lodging, food and entertainment – you'll find that cruising is a terrific value. The nearly all-inclusive price also makes it easy to budget and save for a cruise vacation. Myth #5. You'll spend the whole time being seasick.Today's cruise ships are equipped with stabilizers that minimize the rolling effect of ocean waves. Even if you are prone to motion sickness, you may not be bothered at all. However, it's wise to have some preventive medicine – anti-motion sickness pills, patches or bracelets – on hand if you need a little help getting your sea legs.
But, don't take my word for all this. Ask someone who has been on a cruise recently. Better yet, try cruising for yourself! Talk with a personal cruise expert at Cruise Holidays to schedule a myth-busting vacation.

American Diabetes Month Focuses on Management and Prevention
Every November, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and other health care organizations mark American Diabetes Month. It is a time to focus not only on awareness but on prevention and management of this possibly debilitating disease.
According to the ADA, more than 25 million Americans have diabetes, and another 79 million at-risk citizens have prediabetes, so the chances are good that you know someone who could benefit from taking a close look at the healthcare recommendations you'll hear throughout November.
There are two main types of diabetes to be aware of:
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM)
Also called juvenile diabetes and insulin-dependent diabetes, T1DM is an autoimmune disease that causes the antibodies in your bloodstream to go after and destroy the insulin-producing beta (B) cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body of someone with type 1 diabetes doesn't produce enough insulin to maintain balanced glucose levels.
Although genetics plays a role in developing type 1 diabetes, the connection is relatively minor. Doctors aren't absolutely certain what causes type 1 diabetes, though many indicators point to a virus as a trigger for the disease.
People with type 1 diabetes must take daily insulin supplement injections and must watch what they eat, avoiding foods high in sugar or that can throw off their body's glucose levels. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with plenty of regular exercise is also important for managing the disease.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
Unlike type 1 diabetes, T2DM is insulin-resistant. People with T2DM have what should be plenty of insulin in their systems, but their bodies respond to the insulin in abnormal ways. When normal amounts of insulin won't keep the body's glucose levels down, the pancreas produces more to compensate. Combine this over-production of insulin with weight gain and lack of exercise, and the pancreas gets overworked, leading to prediabetes and then type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes has a stronger genetic link than does type 1 diabetes, but obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and lack of exercise trigger the disease. Most people who develop T2DM are born with the genes for insulin resistance, and their lifestyle as they get older exacerbates that resistance.
Other types of diabetes
If you're pregnant and you've never had diabetes before, you could develop gestational diabetes during your pregnancy. During pregnancy, hormones block insulin action. In a nondiabetic pregnancy, the woman's body makes enough insulin to overcome this effect. A body that can't compensate for this change, combined with hormones released by the placenta and developing fetus, can lead to gestational diabetes. Fortunately, gestational diabetes usually disappears after the pregnancy ends.
If you have diabetes before you get pregnant, it's called pregestational diabetes, and the treatment and consequences are much different than for gestational diabetes.
Cases of other types of diabetes are rare and usually don't cause severe diabetes in the people who have them. But occasionally, one of these other types is responsible for a more severe case of diabetes:
Diabetes due to loss or disease of pancreatic tissue: If you have a disease that necessitates the removal of some of your pancreas, you lose valuable insulin-producing beta cells. This form of diabetes isn't always severe because you also lose glucagon, another pancreatic hormone, which blocks insulin action in your body. So when your body has less glucagon, it needs less insulin.
Diabetes due to iron overload: Hemochromatosis results from excessive absorption of iron into the blood. When too much iron is deposited in the pancreas, liver, heart, joints, or nervous system, damage may occur, which can lead to diabetes or other clinical disease.
Diabetes due to other diseases: A number of glands in your body produce hormones that block insulin action or have actions that are opposed to insulin actions. If you get a tumor on one of these glands, that upsets the hormone balance. This condition usually gives simple glucose intolerance rather than diabetes, but if you have a genetic tendency to diabetes, you may develop it in this case.
Diabetes due to hormone treatments for other diseases: If you take hormones to treat a disease other than diabetes, those hormones could cause diabetes. The hormone most likely to cause diabetes is hydrocortisone, an anti-inflammatory agent used to treat diseases of inflammation, such as arthritis.
Diabetes due to other drugs: If you're taking other commonly used drugs, be aware that some of them raise your blood glucose as a side effect. Antihypertensives and drugs used to lower cholesterol have been especially implicated.

A's acquire Samardzija, Hammel from Cubs
Oakland, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - The Oakland Athletics have made a bold move to bolster their starting rotation, acquiring pitchers Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel from the Chicago Cubs in a blockbuster deal.
To land Samardzija, whose 2.83 earned run average this season ranked 10th among National League hurlers, and Hammel, the A's surrendered the top two rated players in their farm system in Double-A shortstop Addison Russell and Single-A outfielder Billy McKinney.
The Cubs also received pitcher Dan Straily, a 10-game winner for Oakland last season, and will obtain either a player to be named later or cash considerations.
Samardzija has pitched well for the Cubs this season despite his 2-7 record, as Chicago has been shut out five times over his 17 starts and scored two or less runs in 11 of those outings.
The right-hander, who reportedly turned down a recent contract extension offer from the Cubs, has struck out 103 batters in 108 innings pitched this year.
"I'm coming to a team that has done fine without me and I'm just looking to do my part," said Samardzija. "Hopefully, I add to the depth of the pitching staff."
Hammel, a free agent following the conclusion of this season, has also been solid in 2014. The 31-year-old righty has compiled an 8-5 mark with a 2.98 ERA over 17 starts, and heads back to the American League after spending the previous two seasons with the Baltimore Orioles.
While the A's have strengthened their pitching staff, the Cubs continue to stockpile young talent with the addition of a pair of former first-round picks in Russell and McKinney.
Russell, the 11th overall selection in the 2012 MLB Draft, has hit .302 with 25 home runs and 114 RBI over 183 games throughout Oakland's farm system.
McKinney, 19, was selected 24th overall in 2013 and has hit 10 homers with 33 RBI in 75 games this season for Stockton of the California League.
Straily finished fourth in voting for the 2013 AL Rookie of the Year award after going 10-8 with a 3.96 ERA over 27 starts last season, but has split the 2014 campaign between Oakland and Triple-A Sacramento. The 25-year-old righty put together a 13-11 record with a 4.11 ERA over 41 overall starts with the A's.
To open a roster spot for Samardzija, the Athletics optioned pitcher Tommy Milone to Triple-A Sacramento. Milone was 6-3 with a 3.55 ERA in 16 starts for Oakland this season. He was 6-0 in his last 11 outings.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – After falling behind, 2-0, in the first inning, MIT came roaring back with five runs in the bottom of the sixth and never looked back as the Engineers went on to score in each of their last three innings in a 14-2 non-conference baseball victory over Salve Regina University. Sophomore Creed Mangrum (Sandy, Utah) had three doubles, drove in four runs, and pitched the final three innings for MIT.
Salve Regina (6-11) took advantage of an MIT error in the first to go on top early. With two out and a runner on first, senior Nicholas Ploitelli (Warwick, R.I.) popped up in front of the plate, but the ball fell between two MIT fielders for a hit. Sophomore Dominick Di Sano (Central Falls, R.I.) drew a walk to load the bases before sophomore Nicholas Dell'Anno (Reading, Mass.) hit a short fly to left that MIT's shortstop dropped for an error that allowed two runs to score.
It looked for awhile as if that would be all the run support that Seahawk starter, senior Charles Kwolek (Greenville, R.I.), would need as he allowed just a walk to the first 15 MIT hitters he faced. The first hit that the Engineers would get, a single to left from freshman Hayden Cornwell (Newport Beach, Calif.), did not come until there were two outs in the fifth.
In the sixth the MIT offense sprang to life. Sophomore Jon Rea (Palo Alto, Calif.) led off with a walk and moved to second on a single to center by freshman Parker Tew (Chapel Hill, N.C.). The pair then executed a double-steal and Kwolek's attempt to get Rea at third was errant, allowing him to score. Senior Bryan Macomber (Los Altos, Calif.) was hit by a pitch to put two aboard for Mangrum, who laced his first double of the day to left to tie the score at 2-2. A wild pitch brought in Macomber with the third run of the frame before a throwing error on the Salve shortstop put runners on the corners. Senior A.J. Hansborough (Delton, Fla.) then executed a squeeze bunt, scoring Mangrum and moving junior Ricardo Perez (Vienna, Va.) to second. Cornwell then brought Perez around with a base hit to center to make it 5-2.
MIT starter, senior Chad Hendrix (Richardson, Texas), then sat the side down in order in the sixth to finish his day. He improved to 3-0 on the season, going six innings and allowing five runs and a walk while fanning a pair. Mangrum moved from DH to pitcher in the seventh and finished off the game for the Engineers, allowing just a hit and a walk over the final three innings, striking out three.
A Slave Regina error to start the seventh helped MIT to essentially put the game away with three more runs. Macomber delivered a pair with a single to left and then came around on Mangrum's second double to make it 8-2. The Engineers scored six more in the eighth, with the first six hitters all reaching base and coming around to score. Mangrum added his third double in the inning, a two-run shot to right, with senior Torre Swanson (Redding, Calif.), junior James McKinney (Wakefield, R.I.) and freshman Phil Reiser (Alpharetta, Ga.) adding RBI singles.
Ploitelli led the Seahawks with three hits, going 3-for-3 with a run scored. McKinney and Cornwell each added a pair of hits for MIT.
MIT will play again tomorrow; traveling to Curry College to take on the Colonels at 3:30 p.m. Salve Regina will take the field again on Thursday, March 29 when it hosts Framingham State University at 3:30 p.m.

The bankruptcy of Texas Competitive Electric Holdings, owner of retail electricity provider TXU Energy and power generator Luminant, is imminent, Moody's analysts projected in a report this week.
The power company could run out of money before the year's end, soon followed by the bankruptcy of its parent, Energy Future Holdings, said Moody's analyst Jim Hempstead.
The staggering debt is a legacy of a massive $45 billion leveraged buyout in 2007 — one of the largest in history — by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., TPG Capital and Goldman Sachs Capital Partners.
Energy Future Holdings and its subsidiaries currently have more than $40 billion in debt. Of that, subsidiary company Texas Competitive Electric Holdings owes $30 billion and has a value of about $15 billion.
Panhandle project: Wind energy company launches $320 million IPO
The bankruptcy should not create any generation issues or power disruption for the grid, Hempstead said.
"Our expectation is that there should be no material impact on the grid," he said. "We have never seen a bankruptcy that has turned the lights off. All of the Luminant assets are going to get scrutinized as to what is economical and what is not — there may be a plant or two that is shut down or mothballed or otherwise taken out of the stack."
However, the bankruptcy may cause customers to leave TXU, especially if the bankruptcy proceedings are seen as contentious, Hempstead said.
"We think the other reps would move swiftly to pick off the best customers," Hempstead said. "That is a risk to the valuation of the business."
Energy Future Holdings' transmission company, Oncor, is owned by a separate subsidiary, and is not expected to file for bankruptcy.
If the bankruptcy occurs, it will be one of the largest corporate bankruptcies outside of the financial industry in terms of total debt outstanding.
Telecommunications company WorldCom Inc. had $33.1 billion in debt at the time of its bankruptcy in 2002, while Enron had $10.5 billion in debt when it shuttered its doors in 2001.
Wind power: Renewable power falls as Texas wind underperforms
The leverage buyout was negotiated on the belief that natural gas prices would stay high – a forecast that has since proven false.
"The ability to service that debt included an assumption that gas prices would go no lower than $6 per million cubic feet," Hempstead said. "The other assumption was that if natural gas prices did fall, they were volatile and would not stay low for a long period of time."
Instead, both natural gas prices and power prices have stabilized at lower prices, making sufficient cash flow a growing problem for Energy Future Holdings.
"This is a story about too much debt," Hempstead said. "It was an aggressive use of leverage, and it didn't work."

» A Gnome, Fox and Scot walk into a bar
A Gnome, Fox and Scot walk into a bar
Scotts Miracle-Gro is spending $135 million this year to promote its Groundskeeper Willie-cum-lawn care expert to homeowners around the country.
And while my extraction is Irish, I still like this campaign, which launched this spring. It's just hokey enough to be entertaining.
And, more importantly, it shows that Scotts actually listens to its customers:
The campaign is based on "one huge insight" from research among more than 4,000 consumers, Mr. Lyski said, that "people would change their behavior if an expert spoke to them about lawn care."
They said, 'If I knew more, I'd do more,' " he added.
In the research, people also talked about how there is usually "somebody on your street" knowledgeable about lawn care, Mr. Lyski said.
The brand character Scott "marries the two" concepts, he added, and "we made him Scottish because of the mnemonic."
The concept of a Scotsman promoting Scotts to his neighbors in middle America may seem corny, but "there's so much noise out there," Mr. Lyski said. "You need a little something to break through the clutter.
This winter, Dick Bare at Arbor-Nomics in Atlanta and I had a long, very animated discussion about his new gnome. (To be fair, all my conversations with Dick are animated, whether they're related to mythical creatures or not.)
Maria Candler at James River Grounds Management in Virgina just introduced Pip, a fox-like mascot she's using to keep employees focused on training.
Whether you use a gnome or a fox or a hobbit, a simple and iconic and (yes, sometimes, a little gimmicky) mascot can humanize your brand, make your company more memorable and help you connect better with customers. It can help you, as Lyski says, cut through the clutter.
