Madness on Monday Genealogy Research Chatter
Our topic was more interesting in the fact of how some people do genealogy.
Maybe here in the USA we are way behind the times! I gather I am going to have go out on the web and see what Europeans and Middle East people put on their site.
At least I know of a lovely lady I can ask some of these questions too. In the USA we are taught not to add living people for security sake unless that family member your sharing with is discreet also. We are also taught not to add something if not proven a certain amount of ways to verify as fact.
How often do you open a web page and find data back to Abraham in American trees? Is this a normal, are they exposed to more records than we are? Is access to some of this knowledge more readily available in Europe and Asia? I realize if you read or follow the Bible that there is many lineages listed through out the text.
My mother inherited a Teaching Bible and it has Noah and his children listed in it down several generations. I actually think it is ten. I am smart enough to know that yes people in the CHURCH were allowed to marry and children were born and yes there may be a Pope or two that had children. Marriage was outlawed by the Catholic Church
(name later given to the group called the CHURCH) some time in the late 17th or 18th century. That time line not critical to comment but I am aware that in days of old, (500 years ago +) the clergy were married more often than not.
But what is the purpose of putting genealogical data back to these people on our charts? I was amazed as I was reading some of the data added by what may be a very distant relative in Europe to this distant cousins tree.
If we use the documentation theory for our research, how and where did they get documentation other than Bible and that is only one source? Does the Catholic or Russian Orthodox Church or Jewish Religion have scrolls and data hidden away that we can not see? I am sure that they must. But I suspect somewhere a scholar or two has looked at them.
I belong to a great YDNA group that is following human kind across the globe, much like the Ancient History I read of so long ago. It brings to mind the fact that we
truly are not whom we seem to be. Unless you stop your research about 500 years back.
Of course you have those working on going back to Adam and Eve and I suspect genetically this can be accomplished if we all live long enough. Dr George Schweitzer
said we implode on our past. It is normally figured if you go back ten generations you have potential duel ancestors in more than one line.
I have duel lineage only back 5 on one side and 6 I think on another. When much farther back, which I can do on a few lines you can see more same ancestors.
So for Monday Madness, well a sort of frustration, of wasting time/space taken up in a genealogical program I would hope to hear from many out in the big genealogical community on this topic. Is it fair to ask this person to not share this data, or should we accept their contributions. This is the second time I have seen this in the last year. The first time to have it indirectly affect my researching thought process.
I truly hope to hear from several of you regarding this matter because it is not my
intent to offend anyone but since we are so document orientated, this concept sorta boggles the mind. firstname.lastname@example.com

Good questions raised, Susi! Here's my response:ReplyDelete
I'm embarrassed to say that when I first startedReplyDelete
research on line I was thrilled to see trees that extended my ancestry back to the Middle Ages. I have a degree in history and the medieval period was my area of interest. But from that I also knew that much of it was fantasy. I mean, Odin as an ancestor? Yeah, right! *Grin*
But there are also some well documented connections between the early settlers from
the English Isles and nobility.Gary Boyd
Roberts book The Royal Descents of 600 Immigrants to the American Colonies is one
such well documented source. So there are
many Americans who can claim ancestors from before 1500.
Documentation is the key.If they can document it, then accept it.
Meanwhile, I'm trying to clean up my own tree
from the mess I made when I first began.
Intersting question, Susi!
"My ancestry is touched by all the crown heads of Europe." I may say it, I may even believe it, but can I prove it?ReplyDelete
If I continue to offer my beliefs absent the genealogical standard of proof, I damage my reputation as a researcher and as my family's historian.
Personally, I include tales and even rumor in my family histories. There may be a kernel of truth in these things, but no proof. I identify them as rumor and tales. Perhaps someone will have the key to unlock the truth of the rumor or the tale.
Now, as to accepting the information you discussed above; that would depend on the criteria you set up for submission originally. I would have to know that before I could offer an opinion.
Good food for thought!

The reason for not posting BIRTH DATES of the living on the internet is identity theft. The date of birth is one way a persons financial data can be used to get a credit card. If you put the birthdate of a living person on the intenet you inviting all kinds of financial trouble for that person. I know as my mother had this happen, her birthdate was posted on a genealogical web page in Pennsylavania and this is where the person who wreaked havoc with her finances got the information. She lost a lot of money and it took years to get the mess straightened out. I have repeatedly asked this person to remove the birthdate but the person has refused. DON'T GIVE OUT A BIRTH DATE.ReplyDelete
Thanks for bringing up this topic, Susi. I've run across it a number of times, but my reaction has always been to... well, never mind! Anyhow, it's nice to know I'm not the only one wondering, and you've drawn excellent and informative comments on the subject from our fellow geneabloggers. I appreciate that!ReplyDelete
There are at least two genealogies for Jesus Christ in the Bible. Compare both! They don't list the same lineage. Next, he is often called, Son of David. I'm not certain of my memory, but I think the line to David was through Joseph. And Jesus didn't have an earthly father. Isn't this fun?ReplyDelete
Ask anyone who says they have traced their families back to the old country how they got past the Civil War with the burnt down courthouses, how they got past the time the courthouse basement flooded and all of the record books were hauled to the dump. And, don't forget to mention that the ship's records for the voyage here are often skimpy if you can find them. And, oh my, how will those whose ancestors swam or waded across the Rio Grande document their arrival?
Ask yourself this question: "In all of the years I have been doing genealogy how many "good" genealogies have I seen?" In my case it's been very few. The reason I say "few" is because a "good" genealogy should use a numbering system that the reader can follow; it should list contact information for the compiler; there should be some textual information to tell the family story; and there must be at least some attempt to cite sources. Also I would like to find a copy in the collection of some genealogy library.
Some say the Mormons have a great interest in genealogy and that they have a lot of genealogy stored in their library. I'm not convinced that it's genealogy. In my opinion their genealogy is done for church purposes and the church doesn't care about being accurate. Their genealogy program, Personal Ancestral File (PAF), through version 2.31,which I used for many years, and enjoyed using, made no provision for source citation or for publishing a genealogy. Should they have even called PAF a genealogy program?
Another group that uses "so-called" genealogy is the DAR. We should realize this is not a genealogy society. They use ancestral relationships to gain membership in what I call a "bragging society." There's nothing wrong with that as long as we realize when we look at their records that the supplemental documentation often doesn't back up the claims to lineage.

I am so new to blogging that my blog isn't even up yet, but it is coming. Couldn't resist commenting upon Mr. Dickie's observation of the two genealogies for Jesus in the Bible. The usual explanation is that the one found in the gospel of Matthew traces the legal descent of Jesus from the house of David (since Joseph was the legal father of Jesus) while Luke's genealogy traces the blood descent from the house of David through Mary's 'Nathan' line. Genealogies in the Bible often have specific purposes, according to the author's intent.ReplyDelete

I did an article once on if you could do your genealogy to Adam and Eve. Personally, with the way surnames weren't used years ago, and the "John, son of Abraham of Anyplace" was used, how could we? And I agree to not use "living" info unless within relatives/friends we trust. But, then who do "they" share with and so on... We really have to be careful..Your blog brought alot of issue/ethical questions up that we as family historians leaving our mark should consider. Personally, I used to be sooo excited to see someone post my pedigree "way back", but do I include it now, NO. Unless I can prove it I have tried to go back and take it out of my tree. Unfortunately, some of my earlier submissions to Ancestry, etc may have these links as I was inexperienced and posted whatever. I have gone to delete these postings where memory serves me, but who copied this data before I could get to it? There lies the problem, where innocent early researcher post this "back to Jesus/Adam Eve" research, years later learn and delete, but several others before deletion have copied and endless it goes.ReplyDelete
My 2 cents at 2 am in the morning...
Tina Sansone
After reading your post again --- I think your question is......ReplyDelete
Is it fair to ask this person to not share this data, or should we accept their contributions?
I see this often ---- what are we taught in Miss Manners? ---- if we are presented with data that we think may not be true--- we are to say
"That is interesting." or "That is an interesting finding."
I am unsure what you mean by share. I know you co-own a web site, teach genealogy, and speak at genealogy functions. Are you saying the person wants to add this questionable data to your web site?, class preparation? or your professional presentations? Then I say yes----it is ok to maintain the integrity of your data.
But if you are talking about informal genealogy meetings, their own trees, and/or their own conversations with clients, family or friends than I say no.
A way to draw the line would be to outline "rules of content" for your web site, classes, and/or presentations without judgement statements: such as:: on our co-owned web site let's make a rule to include 500 years or so many generations and cut it off.
I think your information is interesting and maybe we can reference a separate page. This separate page will be presented as: owned by just you. On this separate page you can explore these ideas in more detail. But for right now my plate is very full and I am unable to devote the time and effort to verify and validate the data for our joint web site pages. besides you did all the work and deserve all the credit.
I have a simular situation: I am aware of a person practicing genealogy without a license (lol) This person offers to do people's genealogy sometimes without even asking them. He will just start asking their name, dates, parents etc --- then get on a computer and start "researching" the persons lineage. Then half-cocked start spouting off data to the person. Or even shareing this person's data with other people!! I cringe..... I am so offended I can not tell you..... someday at the right time, in privacey, I will explain to this person how I feel about the issue. I will say ---I do not want to be present or be told other people's lineage unless it comes from them. But what they say and do to others --- I can only say how I feel about the integrity and honor to represent our ancestors. from "rehncw" Ruth E Himan No Credentials Whatsoever

I happened across this post from a link on 'Myrt's page. I wanted to thank you for posting this very thoughtful and insightful entry. The one thing that frustrates me most as a avid genealogy researcher is when you see family tress posted online with inaccurate and unsourced information. Whether it goes back to Adam and Eve or Abraham Lincoln, is irrelevant. Cite your info, post your source, something. I see so many people that will copy from these genealogies so accurately that they even include flagrant typos. For me personally, if I can't prove it with a reasonable amount of actual documents, it isn't going into my tree.ReplyDelete
Thanks again for the post,

Electronic Filing (CM/ECF)
Attorneys and other filers can submit files to the court electronically using the federal courts' Case Management and Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) system.
About CM/ECF
The federal judiciary's Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) system allows case documents, such as pleadings, motions, and petitions, to be filed with the court using a computer and Internet connection. This process gives the courts a way to easily manage these files electronically.
Gain Access to CM/ECF
Filing a document in CM/ECF requires a login and password issued by the individual courts. This information is primarily provided to attorneys, U.S. Trustees, and bankruptcy case trustees. However, some courts permit bankruptcy claimants and other pro se litigants to file electronically.
Contact your local court for more information.
Viewing Case Files
Copies of court opinions are available at no charge on the Government Printing Office's FDSys website. Other documents may be viewed electronically using PACER.
CM/ECF Training
Each court offers training on how to use CM/ECF. Contact your local court for more information on specific training that the court offers. The PACER Service Center website also provides computer-based training modules.
Privacy Rules for Electronic Case Files
Attorneys and other filers are required to acknowledge their responsibility to redact "personal identifier" information each time they log in to CM/ECF. Learn more about the Privacy Policy for Electronic Case Files.
Next Generation of CM/ECF
The judiciary is transitioning to a Next Generation of CM/ECF. It was first released to a group of pilot courts in 2014 and two of those courts began live operations in October 2014 (the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals). A full transition is expected over several years. The first release includes new sign-on functionality which gives users access to both PACER and electronic filing, for all courts in which the user is authorized to file electronically, from a single account.

The Kelowna and District Genealogical Society has just published photographs of gravemarkers at Westbank Cemetery in Westbank in the Thompson-Okanagan region of British Columbia, Canada. Special credit is given to Margaret and Peter Knoess for their work on this project which was finished in summer 2008.
These photographs are on the Canadian Gravemarker Gallery website hosted by Murray Pletsch who is now well known among Canadian genealogists.
The gravestone photographs are indexed by surname. There are four 'unknown's shown from this cemetery - listed under U. The Gravemarker Galley doesn't allow for additional information or comments on individual photographs, as some other sites do.
One of the unknown photographs has no identification, one shows a photograph on the marker, one shows a cross that says 'Chris', another shows a broken gravestone: " In Loving Memory Olive Ethel ___TT __ 9? _____955
Could this be for Olive Ethel Hewlett, whose death was registered as at Kamloops, B.C., 7 November, 1955?
The Kelowna and District Genealogical Society has other publications available on cemeteries from the area. All are reasonably priced. Click the 'Publications' tab on the KDGS website for more information or contact the KDGS Cemetery Recording Committee.
Westbank Cemetery, Westbank, Canadian Gravemarker Gallery: http://www.gravemarkers.ca/british/okanagan/westbank/index.htm
Kelowna and District Genealogical Society: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bckdgs/index.html
UPDATE: I did look up the death registration for Olive Ethel HEWLETT. She was born in Kelowna, had lived in Kamloops for 12 years, and was to be buried in the Westbank Cemetery. She died the 7 November 1955. The date of removal on the registration was 9 November 1955. Her father, the registration informant, was William Henry Hewlett, her mother Ethel Baskerville Perkin Hewlett. It appears that they are both also buried in Westbank Cemetery. See the other Hewlett grave marker photographs.

The Wells Fargo Championship was contested last week at Eagle Point Golf Club in Wilmington. I have been to and played many championship golf courses, including Augusta National, and Eagle Point ranks among the top three courses I have been to.
The players were raving about the layout and the conditions all week. Phil Mickelson said, "it ranks in the top five courses" they will play all year. Coming from Mickelson, this holds a tremendous amount of value to me.

People seem less likely to take their medications if the pill color changes between prescriptions, which can happen when switching from a brand-name to generic drug, says a new study.
"I have a lot of experience when patients of mine come and say, 'I was taking a green pill and now it's pink. What's going on?'" said Dr. Aaron Kesselheim, the study's lead author from Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston.
That confusion may lead to patients being unsure about their medications and end with them not taking the drugs, write the researchers in JAMA Internal Medicine, formerly known as the Archives of Internal Medicine.
The researchers used a national database of medical claims from the early 2000s to compare people who got their seizure drugs refilled on time to those who did not.
Overall, they had information on about 61,000 people who were taking one of eight drugs, which were offered in 37 colors and four shapes.
The researchers found that changes in pill color between prescriptions rarely occurred, but there was a difference between those who filled their orders and those who did not.
Of the approximately 11,500 people who did not fill their prescriptions, 1.2 percent had their drugs change color. That compared to 0.97 percent of people who got their prescriptions filled on time.
Kesselheim admitted the raw numbers are "pretty small," but he said they can add up.
"Patients fill medications multiple times a year... The chance of these changes happening gets to be much higher," he said, adding that even a small gap between prescriptions can spell trouble for seizure patients.
As for the shape of the pill changing between prescriptions, that was an even more rare event and did not seem to be linked to people skipping medicine.
Also, the researchers can't prove a change in a pill's color stopped someone from filling their prescription or if it was something else, such as a doctor discontinuing the drug.
"If they are taking nine medicines, they get at least 36 'opportunities' a year to experience a color change. This seemingly small risk then starts to appear very substantial," wrote Dr. Kenneth Covinsky, associate editor of JAMA Internal Medicine, in a note accompanying the study.
Covinsky adds that it's "absolutely senseless and absurd" to expose patients to that risk. "Equivalent generic medicines should be required to look like their brand-name counterparts," he writes.
Currently, the U.S. allows cheaper generic drugs to be sold to patients after a brand-name counterpart's market exclusivity ends. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says those generics must be essentially as effective as the brand-name drugs, but may be different colors, shapes and sizes.
One reason for the same drug having different appearances is that brand-name manufacturers may claim legal ownership of their drugs' physical appearances.
"A patient taking five medicines, each produced by five generic manufacturers, theoretically faces over 3,000 possible arrays of pill appearances for what are, chemically and clinically speaking, the same drugs," write the study's authors.
In a statement to Reuters Health, the Generic Pharmaceutical Association, which represents generic drug manufacturers and distributors, said they are committed to working with the FDA to ensure their products meet all quality standards and are safe, effective and accessible to all patients who need them.
"We manufacture our products and receive approval from the FDA based on consistency with the regulations and standards established by the FDA," said the statement.
In an accompanying editorial, Lawrence Yu and Dr. Gregory Geba of the FDA's Office of Generic Drugs write that they've started to include a drug's physical appearance in reviews.
"It will be interesting to see how the results of the authors' study... will compare with studies of other drug classes," they add.
Kesselheim said that until there is a better solution, it's important for patients to know that a pill's clinical impact doesn't change just because it looks different.

Oftentimes, you hear more talk about water filters and air filters than you do about car filters. The thing is, your car filters are every bit as important. When somebody says car filters, they are usually referring to your car's air filter, cabin air filter or the oil filter. Of the three filters mentioned above, the one that probably gets ignored the most is the cabin air filter. However, it is an essential part of your car's ventilation system that removes pollutants from the air before they get inside the passenger compartment. Here's one major reason why you should change your cabin air filter: roadways (especially highways during rush hour traffic) are some of the major sources of air pollution. While driving, you are breathing in air contaminated with exhaust fumes, soot and dust particles. All of these may pose a serious hazard to your health. Cabin air filters are designed to protect you against these dangers.
Have you ever had a musty smell coming from your car air conditioner? A dirty cabin filter could be the culprit. What about mildew smell coming from your car air filter? Again, a dirty cabin air filter could be the culprit. The point is, these filters are extremely important for proper air circulation in your car.
By now, you're probably thinking that you should check your cabin air filter and get it changed immediately. Well I have good news for you. Changing your cabin air filter is easy and can be done on your own. Instead of wasting money for a professional to install it, take around 15 minutes and put it in yourself. It's that easy! Don't believe me? Watch the video below to see how to change a cabin air filter:
Now that you know changing it is easy, you're ready to place your order. Browse through our collection of Purolator� cabin air filter replacements and place the order for the correct filter for your car. If you need help finding it, no worries. Leave a comment on this blog, Facebook us, or call anytime Monday-Friday at 866-438-3458 and one of our filtration experts will be more than happy to help!
To keep your car and engine running efficiently, sign up for our convenient auto delivery option so you will always have clean air and cabin filters. This option can be activated in your shopping cart or you will find it located alongside the description of your product.
A cabin air filter protects you from airborne dangers and lets fresh air circulate throughout your car more freely. No, a dirty cabin air filter won't cause your car to breakdown. However, it can cause an increase in strain on your filter. This may not cause your car to breakdown, but there are a host of things that will. Don't get caught off guard and check out our car maintenance checklist to keep you on the road.

As David pointed out in his blog post about our parks program, we created some fundraising campaigns in 2010 and 2011 to help illustrate the need to protect the digital spaces we enjoy as well as the physical marvels of nature around the world. Inspired by the program created by Mozilla Japan for Firefox 3.5, Shiretoko, we realized we had a way to explain our mission in a way that a broader audience could understand.
We started in 2010 by partnering with the Madagascar Fauna Group, whose mission was to protect lemur habitats by discouraging deforestation and encouraging education on the island nation of Madagascar. We chose this group because Firefox 3.6 was code named Namoroka for a park in the north of Madagascar. The Mozilla community came together and raised almost $12,000.
The next parks project was for Thunderbird 3.0, which had been codenamed Lanikai after one of the world's most beautiful beaches in Hawaii. For this campaign we partnered with Kupu, a local not-for-profit that meshes conservation of engandered sea birds with providing educational and career opportunities for at-risk youth. Again, the Mozilla community came through, raising more than $7,000 to help them use digital tecnology to support their mission.
Our last parks campaign in 2011 was with World Wildlife Fund. Firefox 4 was code named Tumucumaque for the world's largest rainforest park in the north of Brazil. The park is bigger than belgium and the biodiversity of its ecosystem is like nowhere else on earth. This campaign was focused on raising funds to help the WWF protect this park in Brazil, protecing speices like the Jaguar. The Mozilla community raised over $13,000. We really do rock. In addition to the fundraising campaign, Mozilla Japan created the Virtual Park demo, demonstrating the how we all create a diverse digital ecosystem with cool jungle graphics.
In all the campaigns we were able to use our considerable reach to help different not-for-profits around the world. Donations came in primarily from the US and Canada (the campaigns weren't localized sadly), but people all over the world contributed to help these causes.
We also got some amazing feedback from our users on the program. Many people contacted us to thank us for doing good, happy to see Mozilla getting involved in conservation efforts. Even a gradeschool teacher in the United States used our lemur campaign to teach her students about Madagasar and the animals that live there.
As the program has been closed for now, you can check out an archive of all the old campaign pages here. A huge thank you to everyone who participated and donated.

NEWPORT, R.I.—Her teammates and coaches have become accustomed to watching Krista Ledin (Bridgewater, Mass.) raise the bar time and time again, but Ledin took her play to a new level Monday afternoon setting the UMass Boston single-game program-records for goals (five) and points (10) in a 5-0 victory over Salve Regina University at Reynolds Field.
Ledin scored all five markers for the Beacons on the day she was named the Little East Conference Offensive Player of the Week, to help UMass Boston move to 9-4 and earn their third win in three tries over the Seahawks. Salve Regina fell to 2-11-1 with the loss.
After tying the previous UMB program-record for points (eight) multiple times last season, Ledin easily eclipsed the mark Monday with five goals in a span of 45 minutes.
Sophomore Kara Peters (Feeding Hills, Mass.) recorded a new-career high with two assists in the contest, while seniors Sam Cristoforo (Rockland, Mass.), Tayla Andrews (Plymouth, Mass.) and junior Amanda Pugliese (Pembroke, Mass.) each added one helper.
In net, Kristen Spain (Quincy, Mass.) made four stops in 64:23 to move to 8-4, while she and Dani Perkins (Murrieta, Calif.) combined for the Beacons sixth shutout of the season. Perkins made three saves in relief over the final 25:37.
Salve Regina goalie Jacqueline McPherson fell to 0-3 despite making 10 saves on 15 shots on goal.
UMass Boston dominated the contest from start to finish earning a 23-10 shot advantage and 2-0 margin in corner kicks.
After a scoreless first 25 minutes, Ledin kicked off the scoring at the 27:56 mark, when she took a pass from Andrews to give UMB a 1-0 advantage.
It took over 30 minutes for the reigning Little East Conference Offensive Player of the Year to score her second tally, as Ledin broke through with her second marker off a pass from Peters at 59:09.
Ledin made it 3-0 just over five minutes later, when she took a pass from Cristoforo and finished to at 64:23.
The Beacons junior forward pushed the lead to 4-0 at 70:28 when Pugliese sent her a terrific pass and the Beacons junior forward rocketed a shot past a diving McPherson.
UMass Boston closed out the scoring at 71:44, when Peters and Ledin hooked up for a second time, as Ledin's fifth tally gave her both the program-record for goals and points in a single-game on the play.
For the third consecutive season, Ledin leads UMass Boston and the Little East Conference with 19 goals and 43 total points.
UMass Boston will have a short turnaround, as they host Western New England University at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday in the fourth overall matchup between the programs.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Green Bay Consumer
Filed under: News
It's time for Kristin and I to to sign off for the holidays. Because so few people visit the website between Christmas and New Year's, we've decided to take the time off.
This year is a little different, though, because Kristin and I won't be returning to write for Green Bay Consumer after the new year.
It's been a nearly 4-year journey for myself (besides a brief respite this past spring where I cut back on my duties for a while). I've learned a lot of things in that time, and one of them is that it doesn't matter who is behind the scenes of a site like this, the readers are interested in the content provided. Once a new writer is found for Green Bay Consumer, I'm sure you'll continue to follow along, whether it's on Facebook, the daily email, Google+, or Twitter.
I started my original site as a way to help friends and family save some money. I hope I've done that. I also did it as a way to encourage people to Pay It Forward when you did find a fabulous deal. There are always others in need, whether it's groceries or toiletries or clothes. Grabbing a great deal can also mean extra donations to those that need it.
Along the way we've also provided consumer-related information that we hope you've found useful. Highlighting free or cheap events in the area has also been something we've enjoyed doing. We have also been able to provide many giveaways as a thank you to our readers.
Despite our love of Amazon.com, we've also tried to champion the locally-owned restaurants and stores along the way. Green Bay Consumer has provided a lot of free advertising for many area businesses, so I hope they have appreciated it.
Thank you to all of you that made purchases on Amazon.com, printed coupons through our site, or bought Groupons or Deal Chicken deals. They've helped the site survive if not necessarily make a huge profit.
Who knows what the future brings?
A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. So long 2013, good luck in 2014!

Electron's Micro 1W light is a commuter light with, as the name implies, a single 1W LED. This puts it at the being seen rather than the seeing by end of the bike light spectrum, even so it does provide a degree of road illumination, as our light data shows; enough for badly lit urban streets.
Mounting the light to the handlebars is a stress free affair. A simple quick release loop is contrained with a tool-free bolt and grips the bars through a piece of rubber. The rubber strip is thoughtfully moulded with little nubs which sit in grooves on the clamp, avoiding the fiddly process of holding the strip whilst simultanously trying to tighten the clamp. The light then slides cleanly onto this clamp; held by a plastic clip, the whole assembly never slipped or wobbled.
Power is supplied by four AAA batteries. Those in the light as it comes are non-rechargeables, you could of course use rechargeables once these run out, although in our experience there is often a penalty in overall run time when you do. And the run time? Electron say you can get up to 80 hours - that was optimistic in my testing, I got closer to 60 hour, my guess is 80 is what you'll get using it solely in flashing mode. A power level gauge is included by means of the on light - switching from green to red as voltage starts to dip - so you shouldn't be left high and dry. Battery replacement is as easy as twisting the body a few degrees to open, then slotting in the new cells with the right orientation.
A simple two mode operation: constant and strobe, operated by a single button, does the job and means you aren't forever cycling through as you miss the mode you want. That button is also easily used with winter gloves. The design is well waterproofed and finished in a nice rubber coating to ensure easy removal even when wet. Another nice feature I noticed was small holes at the sides of the light diffuser in order to provide a small amount of side-on visability.
Overall, the Micro 1W fulfils its job as a commuter light well and presents good value with a 24.99 RRP - shop around and you can find it for considerably less than that. Whilst there is no inbuilt recharge option (you can of course use your own recharger and cells) in some ways this may suit busy commuters better - you can just pop in your nearest shop. A simple mounting and quick release add to the commuter credentials. The light provided is good enough to provide inner-city visibility, even a certainly element of side-on, but I wouldn't want to navigate unlit lanes with it.

yeah and me… Firefox just updated which it does on a seemingly daily basis at the mo. Worked when it put it on in Firefox this morning looking a bit borked now.
I will investigate, could be pilot error this end when I was fiddling about after publishing, never a good idea
This light is on sale for between £10-20 on most internet sites. I bought it for about £15 in January '11. Worked very well but unfortunately the button eventually broke down and eventually stopped working after about 7 months of use.
I've not switched to an Ultrafire torch with a Cree T6 led that runs off rechargeable 18650 batteries. Even on its lowest setting the light is far brighter.
The Electron is a good light - but you can get far better for a similar price.

The art to informational interviewing is in knowing how to balance your hidden agenda (to locate a job) with the unique opportunity to learn firsthand about the demands of your field. Thus, never abuse your privilege by asking for a job, but execute your informational interviews skillfully and and a job may follow.
What motivates professionals to grant informational interviews?
The reasons are varied. Most people enjoy sharing information about themselves and their jobs and particularly, love giving advice. Some may simply believe in encouraging newcomers to their profession and others may be scoping out prospects for anticipated vacancies. It is common for professionals to exchange favors and information, so don't hesitate to call upon people.
How do you set up informational interviews?
One possible approach is to send a letter or email requesting a brief informational interview (clearly indicating the purpose of the meeting, and communicating the fact that there is no job expectation). Follow this up with a phone call to schedule an appointment. Or, initiate a contact by making cold calls and setting up an appointment. The best way to obtain an informational interview is by being referred from one professional to another, a process which becomes easier as your network expands.
How do you prepare for informational interviews?
Prepare for your informational interviews just as you would for an actual job interview: polish your presentation and listening skills, and conduct preliminary research on the organization. You should outline an agenda that includes well thought-out questions.
Begin your interview with questions that demonstrate your genuine interest in the other person, such as, "Describe a typical day in your department." Then proceed with more general questions such as, "What are the employment prospects in this field?" or "Are you active in any professional organizations in our field and which ones would you recommend?" If appropriate, venture into a series of questions which place the employer in the advice-giving role, such as, "What should the most important consideration be in my first job?" The whole idea is for you to shine, to make an impression, and to get referrals to other professionals.
Always remember to send a thank you letter to every person who grants you time and to every individual who refers you to someone.

President's Day Cupcake Mosaic
For those of you who missed out, about 1,800 of us had fun watching Zilly Rosen and her team assemble a 5,900 cupcake mosaic of Presidents Obama and Lincoln at the Smithsonian in DC today (they had a live webcam set up). It was even cooler than it sounds, believe it or not.
(You may remember I featured Zilly's work last November; check out that post here.)
Below are some progress shots taken from the live webcam. They shut off the camera just as I was about to get the final shot, but fortunately Kasey D. was on the scene, and sent me a picture of the finished product. Thanks, Kasey!
Thanks also to Sara K. for the streaming link!
My fav Zilly quote: "Obama's on the left. Appropriate."
Progress shots: 2:50 EST:
Note: I consider Zilly's creations more cupcake "mosaics" than the dreaded cupcake-cake abominations I usually heap disdain upon, so I'm not classifying this as a Wreck: more just an interesting bit of cake news.

Republicans in Congress are railing against the healthcare law as a government takeover of medicine. The massive program will harm patients and cost far too much, critics say. Supporters are being branded as socialists.
This isn't just the latest political theater in Washington. It mirrors the scene 50 years ago during the contentious debate over Medicare.
Two brothers, Peter and Philip Lee, fought on the front lines back then, bucking the medical establishment to guarantee healthcare for seniors.
Now another Peter Lee — Peter's son and Philip's nephew — is carrying on the family tradition. He's in charge of enrolling millions of Californians in Obamacare.
President Obama and the fate of his signature law have a lot riding on Lee's performance here in the nation's biggest market.
Full coverage: Obamacare rolls out
Opponents are ready to pounce on any stumbles as evidence the law should be scrapped. Conversely, high enrollment, satisfied customers and stable rates in California may silence some detractors and even persuade fence-sitting states to join in.
"Peter has the weight of the country on his shoulders," said Gerald Kominski, director of the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research. "The overall success of the healthcare law depends a great deal on California."
As enrollment in the new health insurance marketplace begins Tuesday, Lee admits to feeling the pressure as California tries to sign up more than 2 million people through next year, the most of any state.
But he says he finds comfort from digging through his father's old files and seeing the acrimony surrounding Medicare as it launched in 1965.
"Medicare was incredibly controversial, and it was rocky" at the beginning, said Lee, executive director of Covered California, the state's insurance exchange. But he saw the tide turn. "A huge percentage of seniors said, 'I actually want healthcare.' "
The Lee family has been at the intersection of healthcare and politics for decades. Lee's grandfather, Russel, founded the well-known Palo Alto Medical Clinic and pushed for national health insurance as a member of President Truman's Commission on the Health Needs of the Nation.
Lee's father was a professor of medicine at USC and raised his family in Pasadena, a few houses from the former Wrigley mansion.
Lee often joined his father when he visited patients on weekends at L.A. County-USC Medical Center.
During the annual Rose Bowl parade, his parents served homemade chili to politicians and dignitaries. For one summer vacation, the family visited former California governor and Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren at his home in Washington — and borrowed his car to see the eternal flame for John F. Kennedy.
When Kennedy pushed for Medicare legislation, Philip and the elder Peter Lee were among a handful of doctors nationwide to speak publicly in support. The American Medical Assn. and other physician groups were adamantly opposed, fearing it would result in inferior care and too much government control.
In 1962, Philip Lee stood with Kennedy in the White House Rose Garden to press for more doctors to back the bill. That same year, leaders of the Los Angeles County Medical Assn. complained about his brother's vocal support of Medicare and called for his ouster from USC.
"A group of USC medical alumni went to the dean asking that I be fired for supporting socialized medicine," said Peter Lee, the 90-year-old father. The dean refused, so the doctors took their demand to the university president. The university defended his right to free speech.
Philip Lee, now 89, endured a similar backlash after squaring off in debates against other prominent doctors across the country.
"The San Francisco Medical Society called me a communist," the uncle said. "They were calling it the end of Western civilization back then. It's such a flashback to today."
In 1965, shortly after the Medicare program was enacted, Philip Lee went to Washington as assistant secretary for health and welfare to help implement the newly signed law. Some of the early obstacles he encountered are similar to what his nephew faces, including a potential shortage of medical providers as an influx of patients seek care.
Philip Lee returned for a second stint as assistant secretary for health in 1993 and served as a top advisor to President Clinton's ill-fated run at health reform.
His 54-year-old nephew also has shuttled between California and Washington. Lee attended UC Berkeley and later earned a USC law degree. His honors thesis at Berkeley explored the extent of gay political power.
By the mid-1980s, the AIDS epidemic was starting to touch some of his closest friends. The 1986 death of Bill Kraus, an aide to Harvey Milk and mentor to Lee, was a major turning point.
He joined the National AIDS Network in Washington and assisted people who were struggling to get care from insurers and government programs. A few years later, he returned to Los Angeles and established one of the first hotlines for consumer questions at the Center for Health Care Rights.
After years as a consumer advocate, Lee switched to representing big employers in health insurance negotiations in 2000, becoming chief executive of the Pacific Business Group on Health.
During his tenure there, he tried to create a California insurance exchange for small businesses. But it shut down in 2006, hurt by a lack of insurers and dwindling enrollment that caused rates to spiral up. Lee says that experience showed him how crucial it will be to enroll young, healthy people now to offset the higher costs from older, sicker customers.
Three months after the federal healthcare law passed in 2010, Lee joined the Obama administration to pursue new ways to deliver high-quality care at a lower cost. One of his colleagues there, former Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner Joel Ario, said Lee was an influential voice in policy debates.
"Health reform is in his bones," Ario said. "The only problem we had is we both like to talk. We both had a tendency of talking over people and interrupting them."
In 2011, weary of the partisan bickering in Washington, Lee jumped at the opportunity to build California's health exchange from scratch. Backed with about $900 million in federal grant money, Lee created a new state agency and hired 850 workers. He set uniform benefits to help consumers comparison shop and negotiated rates with 12 insurers. Lee's state salary is $257,500.
In May, Lee grabbed national headlines with his announcement of lower-than-expected premiums for Covered California. At a June event in San Jose, Obama joined Lee on stage and held up California as an example that his healthcare law was delivering on its promise of affordable insurance.
Some industry experts and insurance agents called the victory lap premature. They criticized Lee for painting too rosy a picture of what individuals might pay by comparing their premiums against the relatively high rates often paid by small businesses.
It was "dishonest and total spin," said Michael Cannon, director of health policy studies at the Cato Institute, a libertarian think thank. "Peter is a reputable guy who has worked in healthcare a long time, but he stepped over an important line."
Lee stands by that comparison and says independent reviews of California's rates have shown they are far lower than previously expected.
Some supporters of the healthcare law have been disappointed as well.
Consumer groups are unhappy that health plans' quality ratings won't be available when Californians first start shopping for coverage in the coming months. California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones has faulted the exchange for a lack of health plans in some areas and questioned whether it will do enough to protect consumers from potential fraud.
Heading into Tuesday's launch, it remains to be seen whether the state's newly built computer system can handle a rush of online shoppers. The state is also behind on training thousands of enrollment counselors.
To drum up support for the health overhaul, Lee plays the dual role of salesman and health-policy professor at town hall meetings across the state. Looking tan in a dark suit with salt-and-pepper hair, Lee rolls through PowerPoint slides for his audience and fields questions for nearly an hour at every stop. Afterward, he pulls out a little black book to jot down questions and ideas he wants to follow up on.
Lee tries to evoke a sense of history in seeking the public's participation.
"This is the first time we as a nation have said healthcare is a right for all Americans, not just a privilege," Lee said, echoing his uncle's comments in a 1962 debate over Medicare. "We aren't government insurance. We aren't government doctors. We aren't socialized medicine."
In his answers, he often mixes wonky details with a dollop of homespun humor. He reminds people they can sign up for private insurance plans in the exchange only during a six-month period starting Oct. 1.
"If you think you can wait until you get hit by a bus, you will be in deep doo-doo," Lee said at one stop, pausing for effect. "That's the technical term," he added.
After a town hall this month in Long Beach, Lee drove to a retirement home in Pasadena where his parents, now divorced, both live. He relaxed with a game of pingpong with his 84-year-old mother, Sharon. A few weeks earlier, Lee squeezed in one final trip before the healthcare rollout, visiting the Galapagos Islands and hiking to the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu in Peru.
"Peter has a very tough job and in many ways tougher than Pete or I had," said his uncle, Philip. "He's applying in a very big way what we have been interested in for a long time. He's taking it the next step."

It is hard to take seriously the desires of those who want the state of Texas to secede from the United States of America.
On the other hand, the never-ending opining from those on both sides of the debate has been entertaining - so the political ranting has not been a total loss.
Allow us to chime in (with our boots firmly on, but tongue just slightly in cheek.)
Things have changed - to say the least - since the 1830s, when Texas was content to go it alone as a republic.
To those who think the Lone Star State could again make it all by its lonesome without its Uncle Sam: We admire the spirit, to a certain extent, just not the reality of that thinking.
Numerous studies show the state of Texas pays more in federal taxes than it receives, but could the state really assume all the responsibilities of the federal government and still make ends meet? Things are bigger in Texas, but are they that big?
It is hard to imagine the federal government would keep or maintain all of its military installations in the state, which would have a huge negative economic impact.
And what about aid from the federal government in terms of natural disasters and agriculture (just to name a couple of federal government programs that would be left up in the air)?
Sure, we could have our own currency - but it is possible the likeness of whomever might be in the governor's mansion at the time would be plastered on such currency, rather than, say, Sam Houston, Stephen F. Austin, William Travis, Jim Bowie or Davy Crockett. That possibility alone - the mug of the governor on our coinage - should cause secessionists to seriously reconsider.
And what of our borders? Our southern border with Mexico has long been a source of controversy. For the sake of argument, if Texas was successful as its own nation, how would the state deal with an immigration problem that now includes "undocumented immigrants" from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana and New Mexico?
While we share in some of the frustration Texans have with where the federal government might be heading, it is just not realistic to think secession is a viable option.
Now talking about secession - well, it surely provides lots of fodder.
Oh, and we almost forgot the most important result of secession.
The Dallas Cowboys - how would they be able to keep the nickname "America's Team?"
That should be all the reason secession supporters need to change their minds.

Caterpillar customers, employees, and dealers continue to join together to support New York City's rescue efforts, providing people, power, and products as needed.
As of Sept. 14, Caterpillar's New York dealer, H.O. Penn Machinery, had 40 technicians on site, 65 on standby, and 14 people on logistical support. Two other dealers, Foley (New Jersey) and Southworth-Milton (Massachusetts) assisted with recovery efforts, sending in 10 crews of technicians to help H.O. Penn. Technicians worked around the clock installing and operating generator sets and supporting both engines and machines.
Through H.O. Penn, Caterpillar, headquartered in Peoria, Ill., is supplying the vast majority of stand-by power to New York City's financial, insurance, and banking districts as well as providing Con Edison with temporary power and technical assistance to stabilize the power grid in lower Manhattan. The company also donated three 30kW generator sets to the American Red Cross for food kitchens set up for relief workers.
First on site with the New York Police Department at the disaster scene, H.O. Penn set up 50 light towers and 12 small generator sets on the first night of the tragedy. Since that time, it has supplied more than 70MW of temporary electric power (enough to power 35,000 homes) in emergency service and installed more than 16 miles of cable, with 10 more miles on the way. Additionally, H.O. Penn has more than 250MW of permanently installed power in south Manhattan. In addition to the Caterpillar specialized demolition products shipped to the area, there are numerous other excavators on site, including models M320, 345, 330, 320, 330BL, 350, and 375, along with wheel loader models 950G and 966G.
In response to the extensive need for demolition attachments such as shears, grapples, multi-processors, and multi-purpose buckets, Caterpillar is supplying as many work tools as possible. Two truckloads of work tools left Wamego, Kan., the week of the disaster with two to three additional trucks leaving the following week. As a show of pride, Cat Work Tools and Services employees joined together to paint some multi-purpose buckets for wheel loaders in red, white, and blue.
Caterpillar's Product Support Division also donated 1,000 hard hats and 2,000 work gloves to relief workers, while Caterpillar global footwear licensee Wolverine World Wide Inc. donated a total of 2,125 steel-toe work boots.
These efforts reinforce Caterpillar Chairman Glen Barton's recent statement: "The men and women of Caterpillar have joined forces with our dealers and are assisting in the disaster response. Cat machines and power generation products are now on site where needed and will continue to support the relief effort. Our support is with the President as he guides the United States."

Autopsy is also referred to as a postmortem. The word derives from the Ancient Greek for 'see for yourself'. This is a surgical operation performed by trained medical personnel called pathologists, with the purpose of determining cause of death. A body is examined both outside and in. Tissues and organs are removed, examined and analysed. Pathologists also establish the general state of health before death, and determine whether any medical diagnosis or treatment given was correct and appropriate. Autopsies are a common medical practice, but have become popularly associated with the crime of murder.
The practice is recorded in the ancient world, although constraints on the anatomical dissection of human bodies restricted it in many cultures. The most notable early autopsy was performed on Roman Emperor Julius Caesar, who was stabbed to death as he entered the Senate. However, the practical origins of the modern autopsy lie with Renaissance anatomist Giovanni Morgagni (1682-1771). He produced the first major work on the subject, The Seats and Causes of Disease Investigated by Anatomy, in 1761.
Autopsies have contributed greatly to medical knowledge as they provide information not easily attainable by other means. They are also integral to legislation and regulations associated with modern death. Autopsies are ordered when a death is unexpected, suspicious or if there are uncertainties about its exact cause. A significant minority of autopsies reveal death was caused by something other than what was expected.

On a whim, I installed the latest pre-release release of ReactOS today. I tried it a long time ago and had no luck whatsoever — black screens, nonbooting or just generalized irregular behavior — and so I rarely give it a thought.
But I was surprised to find that the live CD version — which weighs in at a size comparable to Slitaz — works great, and the installation version does its job too.
For the most part. I get a weird split-screen effect, with the lower half of the screen rolling up from the bottom, like a TV with a busted vertical hold. And the resolution doesn't scale to the Inspiron's LCD, which means the right third of the screen is lost somewhere in the ether.
Add to that the fact that nothing aside from the touchpad, the video and the hard drives seem to work — no wireless network, no PCMCIA, no audio, no USB, etc., etc. — and it's not exactly functional for me. I'd show a screenshot, but I'm at a loss for a way to get the image off the machine.
However, every computer is different, and every installation is different, so it might be that your hardware is the lucky combination that works as an entire system. No harm in trying.
And even if it's not 100 percent functional, it's nice to see progress made on something as lofty as a cycle-perfect imitation of Windows. Regardless of your philosophy on the subject, some people are working very hard on this, and it seems their labors are bearing some fruit.

Local Connections: Whale Watching & Wildlife Quest Created by the Allen Family
JNU-610 | Juneau, Alaska | See Special Notes
Already booked your cruise?
*Price displayed in US Dollars unless otherwise noted; excursions priced in other currencies may be available on select voyages only. Prices are based on the amount Princess typically charges for each excursion, but your price may vary by voyage date and departure time.
Tour at a Glance
Tour Overview
A unique opportunity to experience southeast Alaska's natural history and marine wildlife, this exceptional, award-winning tour is available rain or shine. Created by Bob and Betty Allen, this family-run company is celebrating 50 years of delivering true Alaskan hospitality and custom building vessels in their own boatyard.
Following a short motorcoach ride to beautiful Auke Bay, board a water jet-powered catamaran specially designed for wildlife viewing. The warm, comfortable and spacious main cabin welcomes you and the panoramic windows offer breathtaking views of the spectacular scenery. Admire the majestic backdrop of snow-capped peaks and glaciers as your experienced captain guides you through the island-studded waters of Stephens Passage.
While you cruise, an onboard naturalist explains the habits and habitats of the creatures you may encounter. Make sure to have your binoculars and camera ready to capture the moment when you spot Steller sea lions, harbor seals, Dall's porpoises, bald eagles, Sitka blacktail deer and, occasionally, bears. Of course the stars of the show are the whales and we are so confident in our Alaskan crew's spotting ability that if you don't see one, you will receive a $100.00 cash refund when you disembark the tour vessel. But don't anticipate a refund as whales have been spotted on every one of our tours for the past 15 years!
The Inside Passage waters near Juneau support a very healthy humpback whale population. These magnificent mammals spend the summer months in the nutrient-rich waters before heading to Hawaii to mate and give birth. The whales have a breathing cycle that typically last four to six minutes; surfacing several times in quick succession to recharge their oxygen supply, then showing their massive tail flukes before disappearing into the depths to feed on krill and small schooling fish. Once whales are sighted, your captain will maneuver the boat to allow for exceptional viewing and photo opportunities.
During your tour, complimentary food samples and beverages will be offered. And motorcoach transport will be waiting to return you to your ship.

Thursday M&A Craze Shakes Up League Tables
Rarely has a Thursday mattered so much to the investment banking league-table.
Thanks to a spurt of mega deals, all but two banks in the top 10 for U.S. M&A have shifted. There's now a new king of the rankings and three banks elbowed their way into the top 10, two from what is the equivalent of league-table Siberia.
The adviser rankings by deal volume, or league tables, are the industry's biggest navel-gazing tradition and several banks are sure to be bragging about their roles in Thursday's four sizeable deals: The $23 billion Heinz & Co. sale; The airline-remaking AMR-U.S. Airways tie up; Anheuser-Busch InBev's decision to sell more to Constellation Brands to potentially save its own $20 billion deal; and Cardinal Health spending $2 billion for AssuraMed.
Combined there's been $47 billion in global deals today, according to Dealogic, making it the second-week in a row there's been a 24-hour period with at least $45 billion in deals.
But while the banks will claim they have different roles and levels of importance, the data gods don't care if the bank was "lead left," the "only one in the room" or brought in after the deal was signed. They all get the same credit.
But Lazard wins for biggest day this Valentine's Day. The bank scored the triumvirate today of advising 3G and Berkshire Hathaway on taking over Heinz and the AB InBev/Constellation deal, both thanks to their long-time relationship with 3G. And it was an adviser to American's pilots in that deal.

Police: Another body part found on Long Island
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) — Police are investigating another body part found in a Long Island town.
The discovery Thursday comes a day after authorities found a severed arm in the yard of a Hempstead home.
Homicide detectives in Nassau and Suffolk counties are investigating.
They're trying to determine if the body parts are connected to a partially dismembered body found Tuesday in a municipal parking lot in Bay Shore, about 25 miles east of Hempstead.
Those remains were found by two people who were walking to the Fire Island ferry terminal about a half-mile away.
Tuesday's discovery led Suffolk County police to search the nearby Gilgo Beach area where 10 sets of human remains were found in 2011.
Police say there are no known links between the Bay Shore body and Gilgo, but they're investigating as a precaution.

It seems odd to me to hear so many stories on TV of people feeling the financial "pinch" these days and being completely unaware of how to optimize what they have. I have been surprised to find that not everyone has had to pinch every penny till it screams all their lives, because so many of us have. So I thought I'd share some things I do to save money and fill a need that could help someone. Soooo...
MoneySaverTip16: Toy Box
I was sharing with you previously about taking a new look at the packaging that comes into your home, either through the mail or through purchases. There are so many uses for a nice box that can save you the cost of buying something manufactured for that purpose. I chose a box that was white outside of the right size and shape to be Boo's toy box. Can you honestly say that doesn't look perfectly fine on my living room rug? Why spend money when you don't need to? And it's great to use things a second time before relegating them to the land fills too. Our children will thank us!
The total cost was $0 and time spent was about 0 minutes and no trip to the store and waiting in line! And how is this inspirational? We are to be good stewards of all God gives us! This is not only saving money, but recycling! Praise the Lord in ALL THINGS! If you'd like more of these, let me know and have a super day!
This is another element I made loooong ago with an action "All Screwed Up" by an unknown creator. Hope you can use it!
