a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Hey everyone, I'm starting a zine library in Providence RI. Providence is a really artsy and good community for this, and I live there and am a zine maker! Yay! I have most likely already found an interim place to house my zine library collection. It's going to be called "Use Your Words" Zine Library and I'm really excited. We're also going to have a high school after school/summer program for creating zines as it's important for me to give back in that way since I got into zines in a really big way starting when I was in high school.
If you'd like to send zines as a donation for this purpose, please send me a private message, and comment here with any further questions or ideas! Any advice from those who have started non profit organizations, businesses, distros, shops, etc are greatly appreciated as I have little idea of what I'm doing after I move on from the interim house of the library.
As it stands I'll be in a community space for a while, but my dream is to eventually have a storefront for it and be the director of the after school program and non profit (and thus have a small amount of income generated from it, enough to survive so I can devote most my time to it).

YAY we officially have a space! It's looking like it will be a long term partnership, too!
I don't want to give out the address since everything is essentially not ready to be visited yet, but we definitely have a concrete building to keep the zines in!
Just wanted to show you this--there's a similar version of what you're planning for RI is running quite successfully in Chicago, even though it's not specifically zine-centric they do focus on creative writing for local kids and http://www.826chi.org/ might be a cool source of inspiration--especially with their most excellent fundraising arm, The Boring Store, which calls itself "not a secret agent store". Their storefront is VERY cool and fun to browse in person and the online version is fun too: http://www.notasecretagentstore.com/
just wanted to let you know your idea definitely has a successful precedent--you're onto something really cool here!

'"Same place exactly," Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said after a 5-4 shootout loss to Atlanta on Saturday night. "It wasn't picked up on X-rays. It just wasn't feeling right again, even after practice [Friday]."'
Archives for October 2006
Broken wrist sidelines Tallinder
Despite loss, Sabres still rolling
'"The one thing we have to be careful of is that winning hides bad habits," said Briere, who extended his career-high point streak to 10 games with a goal and an assist against Atlanta. "Hopefully we didn't pick up too many bad habits, and we realize that speed and hard work will carry us through the rest of the season."'
Streak gets shot down
'"I still don't know how Kozlov's [shootout goal] went in," Miller said. "I read it. I made the move. I swear to God I could feel it brush over my foot. Just a really good shot, I guess."'
Fast start grabs attention, but Sabres eye bigger things
'"To go out there the first month and pick up 21 points with a possibility of 22 is a great way to start the year," he said.'
Buffalo's record start has critics calling for asterisk
'Most fascinating is that Buffalo's style is so anti-Lindy Ruff. He is a conservative-thinking coach. But Ruff, hired in 1997 and the NHL's longest-tenured coach at 666 games, is intelligent enough to look at his Buffalo personnel and realize this is not a defense-first squad.'
Inside shots
'The depth falls off considerably from there, however. Next up from AHL Rochester if there's another blue-line injury would be a first-year pro. Andrej Sekera showed well in training camp and could have made the roster if not for Paetsch's experience, but he has been battling a groin injury. The other options are Michael Funk and Mike Card, also in their first season outside juniors.'
Notes, quotes
'The Sabres still have not lost through sudden death in 16 regular-season games, dating to April 7, 2006.'
Sabres' streak stops at 10
'"It is strange," Pominville said. "It's been a long time since we lost" on June 1 to the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals.'
'SI' cover story would be big boost for Sabres
'It isn't easy for a small-market NHL team to get a coveted cover story in America's most popular sports magazine. In fact, the only time the Sabres were so recognized was in the issue of Feb. 26, 1973: "Buffalo's New Beliveau" (Gilbert Perreault).'
Don't fight it o Sabres are just plain fun
'Rides like this don't come along often. Buckle in. And just enjoy.'
Paetsch gets call with Tallinder sidelined
'Paetsch played in just two games with the Sabres last season, one during the regular season and another during the playoffs.'
High-scoring teams don't disappoint
'Atlanta came into the contest unbeaten on the road with a 3-0-2 record. The Sabres are 6-0-0 on the road this season. Oddly, as many teams entered Saturday without a road loss as did without a home loss. Buffalo, Minnesota, Anaheim, Edmonton and New Jersey were all unbeaten at home coming into action, while Anaheim, Ottawa and Pittsburgh joined the Sabres and Thrashers with unbeaten road marks.'
Sunday's Atlanta Coverage
Thrashers end Sabres' win streak (Atlanta Journal Constitution)
Sabres chase is over
'But last night, in a result that has to be seen as poetic justice, the Atlanta Thrashers put the matter to bed for another season, defeating the Sabres 5-4 — in a shootout when Slava Kozlov scored the only goal.'
Gilmour happy Sabres lost
'"It's fitting they lost in a shootout because some of their wins came that way," Gilmour, a member of those 1993 Leafs, said. "We never had the opportunity of shootouts, so it was an entirely different thing. (The Sabres) have a good team but it's still nice that we will be recognized for our accomplishment."'

Less than impressive reviews on the 70W
Here is the product page for the 90w
Decent reviews (3.7 out of 5.0) on the 95W over at amazon
I have the Lenovo-branded version of the 95W for my T420s and have been thoroughly happy with it. It's actually 90W with AC/DC input, but looks pretty much the same.
I use it exclusively in place of the 'stock' power adapter that came with the computer (except in a docking station).
My only gripe is that they don't have an Apple lighting tip yet....

The metal parts on these are of course from Gabriel at Evolution.Kudos bro.
He however did not get a chance to add the buttons on the flamethrower this time, so I added my own.
Thanks again Jim.I appreciate your patience.

Black Oak Arkansas
Black Oak Arkansas dates back to the mid-'60s, when a group of young, long-haired misfits headed by Jim Mangrum, unable to find work, turned to rock & roll. However, the group was unable to purchase equipment and ended up being arrested for grand larceny after stealing items from the local school in order to get money. They were nearly run out of town and went to live in the nearby hills, locating and borrowing equipment where they could. The band moved to New Orleans in 1969 and called itself Knowbody Else, with a lineup of vocalist Mangrum; guitarists Ricky "Ricochet" Reynolds, Stanley "Goober" Knight, and Harvey "Burley" Jett; bassist Pat Daugherty; and drummer Wayne Evans. Knowbody Else recorded a self-titled album for Stax, which went nowhere; rethinking their approach, the band became interested in psychedelia and Eastern spirituality, which they filtered through their Southern Baptist upbringing. Changing their name to Black Oak Arkansas, the band secured a deal with Atlantic after several trips to Los Angeles and released its self-titled debut in 1971. While it wasn't a hit, the band toured extensively, building a reputation as a raw, incendiary live act that made up for occasional musical deficiencies with energy and the explicit sexuality of Mangrum, who flaunted his body at every opportunity and became known for such antics as miming sex with the washboard he used for musical accompaniment.
The band's second album, Keep the Faith, was a noticeable improvement, as the band had honed its sound and material through numerous live gigs; If an Angel Came to See You, Would You Make Her Feel at Home? followed the same year, featuring new drummer Tommy Aldridge, but it was 1973's Raunch 'N' Roll Live that established the group as a commercial force. That year, High on the Hog became their most commercially successful album, reaching number 52 on the charts. It was buoyed by the Top 30 cover version of "Jim Dandy to the Rescue," which featured female vocalist Ruby Starr trading innuendoes with Jim "Dandy" Mangrum. Several more albums followed before the group parted ways with Atlantic in 1976; Jett left the band in 1975 and was replaced by Starr cohort James Henderson. Lineup shifts were rampant as the group switched to MCA; Aldridge left and was replaced by Joel Williams, while the guitar/bass axis was gutted and rebuilt around Greg Reding, Jack Holder, and bassist Andy Tanas. This lineup released Race With the Devil in 1977, after the band had one last taste of success with the "Strong Enough to Be Gentle" single. Following several lackluster, straightforward Southern rock albums, the band called it quits in 1980. After recovering from a heart attack, Mangrum reunited with Reynolds in 1984 for a solo album, Ready as Hell; The Black Attack Is Back followed two years later. In 1999, BOA reunited to release The Wild Bunch. ~ Steve Huey

text: Hi all. I have been following FSU for several years, but this is my first post; please forgive me if this is better suited for the Trash Can and feel free to move as seen fit. The first international competition I ever watched was the 1997 World Championships. Through the gift of YouTube, I have been able to rewatch videos of the short and long programs several times over. However, I have long wished to see videos of the qualifying rounds, or at the very least hear detail on the programs some of my favorite skaters. Of course, the program I'm most interested in is Lu Chen's. AFAIK, it was the only time she competed that program. Additionally, I have heard that Nicole Bobek had a great skate just prior to the tragic death of her coach. I would be forever grateful if someone were to upload and post videos of either of these programs. If this isn't possible, does anyone know which jumps each landed? I'll always believe LuLu was robbed of a spot in the LP. While I have never seen the programs of the lower-ranked skaters, given the very low standard of skating that year, I'm quite comfortable stating that her artistry should have been enough for at least 24th. Bobek, for instance, was 8th with large errors on both the combo and solo triple. Lu's mistakes were certainly more severe- .8 vs. ~.5 for Nicole, but I just can't believe that they were 17 spaces apart considering their comparable artistry, spins, etc. Nicole, OTOH, really missed an opportunity to grab a second World medal. Her SP marks made it clear that the judges were ready and willing to give the USA a sweep. I wish she had at least attempted her planned content in the long program. I don't mean to underestimate the impact of Fassi's death, but a program like the one delivered just weeks prior at Nationals with only 4 triples could have been enough for 3rd-6th. Anyway, I've digressed- I would love to chat more about this competition, but most of all, I'd be the happiest FSUer of all to see or hear more about Lu Chen and Nicole Bobek and their performances in the QF. Thanks, and I hope I haven't ruined my first impression by posting this in the wrong forum.

The failure of Egypt's first fling at democracy holds the dubious honour of being bad news for almost everyone, from Egyptians who thought military rule was a thing of the past, to regional leaders who supported the democratic experiment, to western powers looking for Egyptian stability.

Romney makes first debate a referendum on Obama; Obama wilts
posted at 11:18 am on October 4, 2012 by Howard Portnoy
On Tuesday the Daily Caller released a 2007 video with the promise that it would show Barack Obama as "you've never seen him." It remains to be seen whether that video, which shows Obama accusing the U.S. government of racism, will cut any ice with voters.
His performance last night in the first presidential debate is almost certainly another story. This was really Obama as "you've never seen him." The silver-tongued orator of 2008 gave way to a stammering presence, a man so unsure of himself that even mega-donor Bill Maher was compelled to tweet that the president really is at sea without his teleprompter. Challenger Mitt Romney, in contrast, was confident, in command of the facts, and—most importantly—on the offensive.
Romney's main objective coming into the debate was to make it a referendum on Obama's presidency rather than a choice between competing visions for America's future, as the president has been trying to frame it. And to a large degree he succeeded. Obama for his part was caught off guard, having for the first time to defend his indefensible record in a face-to-face confrontation.
Throughout much of the one-sided, 90-minute slug fest he appeared outmatched, alternately gazing down like a crestfallen child or looking over at the one man on stage who came off as presidential.
One by one, the false choices Obama has been peddling on the campaign trail were exposed. When he attempted to contrast the GOP plan for governance with the Democratic plan by noting that 23 million new jobs were created under Bill Clinton, Romney reminded him that he and Bill Clinton are not joined at the hip. He turned the spotlight on Obama's execution of the "Clinton plan" over the past four years, noting that 23 million people are unemployed or have stopped looking for work, that the food stamp rolls have swelled by 15 million families, that family income has shrunk, and that economic growth has been slowing and is currently a trickle.
When Obama grumbled about oil industry subsidies, claiming that the oil cartels like ExxonMobil "get $4 billion a year in corporate welfare," Romney set the record straight. He cited energy department statistics noting that the tax break for oil companies is $2.8 billion a year, that it's "an accounting treatment," and that the funds go not to Big Oil but "to small companies, to drilling operators and so forth." Then he went for the jugular, refreshing Obama's memory that "in one year, you provided $90 billion in breaks to the green energy world," adding "that's about 50 years' worth of what oil and gas receives."
When Obama identified one of his proposals for decreasing the deficit as an elimination of a corporate "deduction for moving a plant overseas," Romney replied, "I've been in business for 25 years. I have no idea what you're talking about. I maybe need to get a new accountant." Then he turned serious, adding "the idea that you get a break for shipping jobs overseas is simply not the case." The president, in over his head, wisely remained silent.
And so it went for a punishing hour and a half that must have seemed more like a year and a half to the president. And in the end liberal pundits who days ago were wondering why Romney doesn't just concede the race were back to gnashing their teeth. "Where was Obama tonight?" MSNBC's Chris Matthews whined after the debate. "Why didn't the president probe [Romney] aggressively on all the recent points of information?" whatever those might be.
Others were more measured, more adult in their responses but still uneasy and looking, like The New York Times's Gail Collins, for a takeaway that they could feel good about. For Collins it was "a funny look on [Romney's] face whenever President Obama was talking. Somewhere between a person who is trying to overlook an unpleasant smell and a guy who is trying to restrain himself from pointing out that his car is much nicer than your car."
But the focus groups were not so down on Romney or as convinced as they once might have been that he is the rich outsider while Obama is their undisputed savior. One post-debate group conducted by pollster Frank Luntz showed a sharp and enthusiastic movement by former Obama supporters into the Romney camp.
However you break down the debate, the tone and tenor of the election have changed. Fixing blame for the nation's enduring economic woes on George W. Bush may finally begin its migration to the back burner, where it should have been relegated long ago. And expect Joe Biden's pithy reminder that "the middle class has been buried for the past four years" to move to the front.

New England Patriots running back Shane Vereen is finally eligible to return from short term injured reserve. The former Cal back required wrist surgery after a dominating Week 1 performance and hasn't played since then. He has been practicing for two weeks and is expected to return immediately into his "joker" position. He should dive right into New England's RB rotation.
Fantasy Analysis:
Vereen has been injury prone since his college days so fantasy owners will have to take whatever they can get for him. The problem looking ahead is accepting the fact that Vereen's Week 1 numbers (14 rushes for 101 yards and seven catches for 58 yards) were him at his absolute best. He's not going to produce like that every week, but at times, he can be very good. If he's still available in your league, add him and give him a shot.

"I envision non-traditional pastoral training where men and women can enter courses of study at the level and pace that fit their life situation and sense of God's call to ministry. Opportunities for study and growth will span the spectrum from non-credit personal enrichment courses through accredited part-time college and seminary degree programs of pastoral preparation. I see congregation, conference, denomination, individual and academy all playing on the same team, pursuing Christ's mission of grace and truth for the cosmos."

text: Last among just three candidates is not the same as last among ten candidates as for the summer olympics. Besides they have twelve months to review the project now. Paris was first in the evaluation twice in a row for the summer olympics but failed to win them. I hope lessons have been learnt and the campaign will be less arrogant. The current president has many defects, but at least he doesn't have the talent of offending two nations per sentence. So fingers crossed.

Are Temperature Trends affected by Economic Activity?
In a recent paper, McKitrick and Michaels (2004, or "MM04") argue that non-climatic factors such as economic activity may contaminate climate station data, and thus, may render invalid any estimates of surface temperature trends derived from these data. They propose that surface temperature trends may be linked to various local economic factors, such as national coal consumption, income per capita, GPD growth rate, literacy rates, and whether or not temperature stations were located within the former Soviet Union. If their conclusions were correct, this would hold implications for the reliability of the modern surface temperature record, an important piece of evidence indicating 20th century surface warming. However, numerous flaws with their analysis, some of them absolutely fundamental, render their conclusions invalid.
First of all, there are a number of issues that they did not address that logically must must be addressed for their conclusions to be tenable. MM04 failed to acknowledge other independent data supporting the instrumental thermometer-based land surface temperature observations, such as satellite-derived temperature trend estimates over land areas in the Northern Hemisphere (Intergovernmental Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Third Assessment Report, Chapter 2, Box 2.1, p. 106) that cannot conceivably be subject to the non-climatic sources of bias considered by them. Furthermore, they fail to reconcile their hypothesis with the established large-scale warming evident from global sea surface temperature data that, again, cannot be influenced by the local, non-climatic factors they argue contaminate evidence for surface warming. By focusing on thermometer-based land observations only, and ignoring other evidence conflicting with their hypothesis, MM04 failed to address basic flaws in their arguments.
Perhaps even more troubling, it has been noted elsewhere that MM04 confused "degrees" and "radians" in their calculations of areal weighting factors, rendering all of their calculations incorrect, and their conclusions presumably entirely invalid.
The focus of this piece, however, is on yet another fundamental problem with their analysis as identified by Benestad (2004). Benestad (2004) repeated their analysis using a different statistical model (linear and generalised multiple regression model) and the same data set. Benestad (2004) first reproduced the basic results of MM04 (i.e., established similar coefficients for the various factors used by MM04) using the full data set. This established an appropriate baseline for further tests of the robustness of their statistical model. As described below, their statistical model failed these tests, dramatically.
For one thing, the statistical significance they cited for their results was vastly overstated. One of the most basic assumptions in statistical modeling is that the data used as predictors in the model are Independent and Identically Distributed ('IID'). It is well-known, however, that temperatures from neighboring stations are not independent. Due to the large-scale structure of surface temperature variations, nearby measurements partly describe the same phenomenon. Any statistical analysis using such temperature data must account for the fact that the actual degrees of freedom in the data is far lower than the nominal number of stations (see e.g. Wilks, 1995). McKitrick and Michaels, however, failed to account for this issue in estimating the statistical significance of their results. Had they accounted for this "spatial correlation", as Benestad (2004) points out, they would have found their results to be statistically insignificant.

Visiting Fairfield University scored two goals in the game's second half, highlighted by sophomore Jordan Ayris' game-winner in the 82nd minute, as the Stags defeated Canisius College 3-2 in MAAC men's soccer action Sunday afternoon at the Demske Sports Complex. The win moves Fairfield to 7-8-1 overall and 3-4-0 in league action, while the Golden Griffins slipped to 8-7-2 overall and 1-6-0 in conference games.
The Griffs got on the board with 6:31 left in the first half as senior Gavin Falconer got the ball 25 yards out off a pass from teammate Will Hudson and fired a shot. Falconer's shot was deflected off a Fairfield defender and went past Fairfield goalkeeper Michael O'Keeffe to give Canisius the 1-0 lead.
Fairfield tied the game in the contest's 66th minute, as a cross from just left of the goal by Reco McLaren got through a Canisius defender and found Nuno Rodrigues, who scored from 10 yards out for his first marker of the season. The Stags had a chance to take the lead on a penalty kick with just under 19 minutes remaining after the Blue and Gold was whistled for a foul inside the box. Canisius senior goalkeeper Kareem Gray kept the game knotted at 1-1 at that point as he made a diving safe to his right on the penalty kick taken by Ayris.
The Griffs had their best chance to re-take the lead in regulation when freshman Alex De Carolis found teammate Regan Steele from 10 yards out. Steele sent his shot at the upper-right corner but O'Keeffe was up to the challenge and made a full-out leaping save, knocking the ball wide of the net to result in a corner kick for the Griffs.
Fairfield took the lead for good with 8:38 left to play when Ayris fired a shot into the bottom right corner of the goal from 12 yards out to put the Stags up 2-1. The Griffs had a chance to knot the game back up in the 85th minute when De Carolis fired a shot at O'Keefe, but the senior from New Zealand was able to make the save to preserve the Stags' lead.
"This game was very similar to all of our other MAAC games, which have also been one-goal games," Canisius head coach Dermot McGrane said. "I give the Fairfield goalkeeper a lot of credit, he's very good, but I definitely think there were spells today where we controlled play. We just have not been able to put the ball in the back of the net when we have had our chances."
Canisius ended the contest with a 19-15 advantage in shots and an 8-3 margin in corner kicks. O'Keefe earned the win after he made nine saves, while Gray made six stops in the loss for the Blue and Gold.
Canisius will close out the 2012 regular season next weekend with a pair of MAAC road games. The Griffs will start their final road swing of the year at Saint Peter's on Friday, Nov. 2. Game time in Jersey City, N.J., is set for 2 p.m.
Game Notes: This was the 25th all-time meeting between Canisius and Fairfield, with the Stags holding a 19-4-2 advantage... Fairfield has downed Canisius by scores of 2-1 in each of the last two seasons... Falconer's first half goal makes him the seventh player in school history to score 10 goals in a season... Hudson's assist was his third of the season, which ties him with teammate Denver Spearman for third on this year's roster... Before the game, Canisius honored its six seniors, who played the final home contest of their careers.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Coy, Jan 11, 2013.
I just hope they keep Eberflus (sp). IMO he might have been a good candidate for DC, himself.
So are we sure this is a Jerry move? Or is it only a Jerry move if this doesn't work out well?
Don't you dare flip-flop and credit Garrett if Kiffin works out well now. Remember: this was ALL Jerry according to most of you.
An interview is a little different than talking to football players.
I think he's probably a goner.
If they would have brought in several candidates and Kiffin emerged as the best one, fine. But going out and hiring the only person that you interviewed too me is like a dog chasing it's tail.
Terrible move. I'm hope I'm wrong.
This is beginning well.
Thread title is misleading
Just because Werder said it does NOT make it official.
It is probably true but it is NOT official until the team announces it
im just going to bookmark the threads about kiffin just in case in the event it works out very well for us to see who the flip floppers are so i can put all of them on ignore.
Yes. Because the last person I want to talk to on a sports forum is a fan who judges on results.
Kiffin is a brilliant defensive mind, I am a little worried about his age but cannot really complain since I have been touting A return to the 4-3 for years now.
Go get'em coach ....... you have my full support and I expect great things.
Okay, which one of you is being lazy and hasn't yet updated the Cowboys wiki page.
You're gonna have to use larger font if you want Kiffin to read that.
What a horrible point of view you are trying to make. He was in his 60s in Tampa and was talking to 20 year olds. Who cares how the guy talks in interviews. The important thing is the players learn his schemes, techniques and apply them on the field. Man you guys worry about some of the least important stuff.
I'm on record as saying the defense in 2013 will be better than 2012.
Don't care who gets the credit.
i like this.
the man has a track record, and a great one. until it fails, we can give a benefit of the doubt.
now get the play calling duties out of jasons hands, jer.
I actually feel better about it now. I think Carter/Lee, Ratliff, Hatcher, etc. will flourish in this system.
Al Davis to Jerry through their sayence:
"Jerry next move is to make Rich Gannon your QB coach, you got Callahan and Monte already. Oh and don't forget Jim Brown, he can be your new WR's coach. we got all the momentum gooing, don't let the ball stop. Godspeed!"

Well; I ordered the kit. Now could someone point me to the correct barrel? I've tried so hard to avoid ar's & .233s' that I turn away when I see a picture or a post! I swear this one kit is all I'll ever buy. But I want to get the right parts. I'll wait until hopefully things calm down & get the correct Nodak receiver. Upper/lower WTF?? I've seen 4th post about pins & springs and such. But I saw that by mistake & erased it from my mind real quick.
I only bought this because of the Nam history & the chance Barry will say I can't have one. Oh....Colt is cool too.
It looks like no bayonet is included either.
I'll wait until my next trip to Florida & ask Tim to put it together for me. I'm sure he can do it blindfolded.
Thanks for any advice, Brad

Press Release from Ancestry.co.uk……….
New Convict Records Now Online Enable 2m Brits to Trace Aussie Ancestors From Arrest to Release
Largest online collection of criminal and convict records – 2.3 Million – FREE to search from the 24-30 January
- Records detail convicts transported to Australia and pardoned for their crimes
- Over two million living Brits have convict ancestors1
- Convict Registers of Conditional and Absolute Pardons and Certificates of Freedom 'complete' convict journey
Ancestry.co.uk, the UK's Number One family history website2, today launched online the Convict Registers of Conditional and Absolute Pardons, 1791-1846 and the New South Wales Certificates of Freedom, 1827-1867, which 'completes' the journey from arrest to release of almost one third of all convicts transported to Australia.
These two important collections bring the total of criminal and convict records available in Ancestry.co.uk's Australian Convicts Collection to more than 2.3 million, making it the most comprehensive online convict resource.
Ancestry.co.uk estimates that more than two million Britons are descended from convicts, meaning that there is a one in 30 chance that they will have ancestor included in the records.
To celebrate this milestone four-year project, the 15 collections which comprise the Australian Convicts Collection will be available for FREE on Ancestry.co.uk for seven days from Sunday the 24th of January3.
The Convict Registers of Conditional and Absolute Pardons, 1791-1846, contain details of more than 21,000 pardons granted to convicts transported to New South Wales. A conditional pardon entitled a convict to their freedom but not to return home, while an absolute pardon gave them full citizen rights, in and out of the colony.
The New South Wales Certificates of Freedom, 1827-1867, contain details of more than 34,000 certificates granted to those who had completed a fixed seven, 10 or 14 year term. Convicts with a life sentence could receive a pardon but not a certificate.
Other collections FREE to search from January 24th include England and Wales Criminal Registers, the Convict Transportation Registers, Convict Muster Rolls, Convict Applications to Marry, Convict Death Registers, and a variety of other record sets documenting the trial, journey, working life, release and death of the majority of convicts transported.
English criminal and Australian convict records are a cornerstone for UK researchers with Australian ancestors and contain a variety of personal information such as name, date and place of conviction, crime and trial details, term of sentence, name of ship, departure date and colony to which convicts were sent.
Also included can be occupation, a physical description and the convict's religion – and most records are fully searchable and include links to original document images.
Between 1788 and 1842 more than 80,000 convicts were transported just to New South Wales4, which became a British colony after it was discovered in 1770 by Captain James Cook.
Australia became the most convenient location to transport the many convicts who could no longer fit into Britain's overcrowded prisons following the American Revolution in 1776, which made transportation there impossible. In 1787, the first 11 ships carrying convicts to Australia – known as The First Fleet – set sail for New South Wales, arriving eight months later.
Among the thousands of convicts detailed in the collection are a number of famous names and infamous criminals, including:
- Israel Chapman – Also known as the 'George Street Runner', Chapman was convicted of highway robbery and transported to Australia in 1818. After receiving a conditional pardon he became one of New South Wales' first police detectives and earned an absolute pardon six years later in recognition of his services.
- George Barrington – Also known as the 'Prince of Pickpockets', Barrington was a gentleman thief transported to New South Wales in 1790. Famed for attempting to escape his arrest disguised in his wife's clothes, he helped quell a mutiny during the voyage, resulting in a conditional pardon in 1792 and an absolute pardon in 1796.
- Joseph Backler – Backler was a British artist who was sentenced to death for forging cheques in 1831, though his conviction was commuted to transportation. He continued to paint after receiving a conditional pardon in 1847, and today is regarded as the most prolific oil painter of early colonial Australia.
Study of the records reveals a number of significant increases in convict transportations linked to key events in British history. For example, the number transportations rose dramatically between 1845 and 1847 as the Great Famine ravaged Ireland and left thousands starving.
The famine catalyzed Irish immigration to England, but extreme poverty forced many new arrivals to turn to crime; and many were subsequently transported to Australia.
An estimated 90 per cent of all convicts appear in the England & Wales Criminal Registers, 1791-1892, which includes all 1.4 million criminal trials which took place in England and Wales from the late 18th to the late 19th centuries and is included in this promotion.
Ancestry.co.uk International Content Director Dan Jones comments: "The new convict records now online will finally enable up to two million Brits to trace the full journey of their convict ancestor from arrest to release.
"While Australia's convict history itself has been well documented, there are thousands of individual stories in the collection just waiting to be told."

1 163,021 convicts were deported between 1787 and 1867, with the midpoint and peak of deportation being the early to mid 1830s. The average convict had five siblings meaning convicts left behind 800,000 brothers and sisters. The population at this time stood at approximately 15,700,000, meaning relatives of convicts made up around 5.1 per cent of the population. Taking into account emigration and migration since the end of convict deportation, this sample of 800,000 people will have grown into a population of around two million (1.95 million) or 3.33 per cent of the current population (one in 30). This is a broad estimate. Sources include ONS trends data, Papers of the Royal Commission on Population, and the 1841-1901 Censuses

"The quality of these super cute, modern cards is superb. Go with the pearl paper, you won't regret. Fun size! I like to be a little different; these pleased! Shipped fast."
"Good, heavy quality cardstock. I chose the teal option and find it to be both professional and eye-catching - I wanted a card that would be easy to find if flipping through a rolodex, since I don't have a logo, and this is exactly what I was looking for."
"I needed a simple calling card that would work as a card to schedule play dates and to give to vendors/contractors/whatever else I needed. This card fit the bill. It's simple but nicely designed and the size is different which makes it stand out from other cards. I am super happy that I sprung for the pearlized paper because it might have been a little boring without it. I'll be ordering more for sure. I got the blue version and it's a very nice color. The printing is crisp and clear."
"Despite the order not shipping when expected-Tiny Prints took the opportunity to make everything right about the experience. I ended up working with 2 different customer service reps throughout the process and they were both exceptional. They were helpful, service oriented, caring and professional. It tells me that the training received comes from the top down. And the best part is that I was extremely pleased with the product and would order from them again."
"It's a great personal card to give someone I meet that I want to keep in touch with, or have them contact me. In my opinion, it's much better then using traditional business cards."

|Students Visit the National Collegiate Leadership Conference
|Three School of Business students joined nearly 600 peers at this winters National Collegiate Leadership Conference in Tucson, Ariz.
At this winter's National Collegiate Leadership Conference in Tucson, Ariz., three School of Business students gladly answered questions about that logo on their school T-shirts.
That's the outline of our building, the Dorothy D. and Roy H. Park Center for Business and Sustainable Enterprise, the world's first Platinum LEED-certified business school building, they'd explain.
"That's so awesome" and "I wish our school was that committed to sustainability" were some of the responses Timothy Berry '13 heard.
Berry, Caitlyn Reinecker '11, and Nick Stuffo '14 joined nearly 600 of their peers from nearly 50 colleges and universities, from Hawaii to New York, for the three-day conference at the University of Arizona. With IC the only school from the Northeast, they had plenty of opportunities to spread the word about South Hill.
"I met so many people from all over the country that have never even heard of Ithaca College," said Stuffo, a business administration major.
His Ithaca experiences prepared him to feel comfortable meeting so many new people, said Berry, citing the campus-wide Student Leadership Institute and the school's Business Professions Program's E.D.G.E. mini-conferences.
"They've taught me to just walk up to anyone, shake their hand, and introduce myself, and expect them to do the same," Berry, a business administration major, said. The value of networking was the most important lesson he learned: "The NCLC staff pushed the participants to sit with someone they didn't know, to share a fact or story about yourself to someone else, and to make friends with someone you normally wouldn't."
Many of those conversations focused on connecting leadership with service, said Reinecker, a business administration major concentrating in marketing and management. She spent much of her time on service learning projects, one of them for Ben's Bells, an organization that spreads kindness by decorating beads and bells and hiding them for others to find.
Doing good in Tucson motivates her to do more good in Ithaca, Reinecker said:
"I found that almost all of the leaders there who took the initiative to start something within their school also took the initiative to support or start some sort of charity. When a leader finds something they are passionate about and wants to make a difference in the lives of others, they will go out of their way to do so making a difference in the community."
She said she hopes she, Berry, and Stuffo can help start a School of Business volunteering organization to help the greater Ithaca community.
Berry concurs: "Finding an hour or so to give back to a good cause is something we should all aim to fit into our busy schedules."
The 23rd annual conference, organized by University of Arizona students, included 80 workshops, team building sessions, service projects, and networking opportunities. The keynote speaker exemplified a young person's commitment to community service. In 2002, Micaela Connery, then 15, directed the first Unified Theater production in West Hartford, Conn., as an attempt to engage people of all abilities in theater. As Unified Theater's executive director, she works with middle and high school students to lead school theater groups that are fully inclusive of students of all abilities.
Teambuilding exercises taught participants how to work together without talking, said Stuffo. "I think the key lesson that I learned there was how to interact with other people that you do not know," he said.
Berry described a silent exercise in which 25 people stood around a circle with 31 colored spots. Each spot had to be touched in ascending order, from 1 to 31, but only one person's foot was allowed to be in the circle at a time. "Getting this done in 14 seconds, as we did, proved to be very difficult, but it was an experience I won't forget," he said.
The trio will be present their findings to other students during an upcoming Student Leadership Institute workshop. The School of Business requires all students to complete two of three leadership certificates offers by the Student Leadership Institute, part of the Office of Student Engagement and Multicultural Affairs. Certificates are offered in Leading Self, Leading Others, and Leading in a Diverse World.
Berry can recount the way descriptions of Ithaca College impressed other attendees: "The fact that we live and work in snow and ever-changing weather awed some of the other participants.''

Has anyone attempted making a Czerka Adventurer? The main interesting point being that it is collapsible to fit in a water-bottle-ish sized tube.
Has anyone attempted making a Czerka Adventurer? The main interesting point being that it is collapsible to fit in a water-bottle-ish sized tube.
Don't recall seeing anyone do a build of Aurra's rifle.
I think that making it collapsible in a practical sense would be pretty tricky.
I myself have no idea how it could be accomplished, but I'd love to see any attempts at it.
That'd be pretty cool.
Someone did this piece a while back (year before last) and posted it up in a thread over on BHG in the Aurra Sing section, titled "Aurra's TPM Long Rifle completed"
Unfortunately, the pictures don't currently show up :/

Here are a few pics. I can email you more if you'd like, just send a PM.
Last I heard, this was going to be used for the Aurra CRL reference pic. There are a few Aurra rifles out there, but they have a one piece stock/ grip and it should be two piece. I used the 12" Aurra figure accessory as well as the 18" ( I think) statue by Patrick Piggott, as he lives near me and allowed me to check out his highly detailed version. I built this on a whim ( to see if I could even do it )for a Garrison mate who has the black body suit Aurra costume. The pouches needed to be upgraded to a more appropriate look.

Thanks for sharing, nice work!
Thanks very much, I appreciate that!
There may be a way to make it collapsible, or at least make it into two pieces, but it would be tough because of the thin speargun barrel. It's attached to the rifle at 3 points. If that could be made to come off, unsnap, or magnets, then you could maybe have the main barrel disconnect. It's probably possible.
Nice work Timmer. Any WIPs I haven't found yet showing how to make this?
Might look at something similar to the Henry Survival Rifle. The entire assembly breaks down and fits into the stock.
Nice work!!!
WoW Cool
Very Nice... Great Imagination!
That'd be pretty cool.

Green Bay Women Tie, Men Fall to UIC on Senior Day
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay men's and women's swimming and diving teams competed in their final home event of the 2011-12 season on Saturday - a Senior Day dual meet against Horizon League opponent UIC at the Peter F. Dorschel Natatorium. The women's contest ended in a rare tie (121-121), while the Flames defeated the Phoenix on the men's side 158-83.
UIC's women had seven first-place finishes in the draw, while Green Bay had a winner in six of the meet's 13 women's events. On the men's side, the Flames took all but one event in the victory. The Phoenix women move to 5-1-1 in dual meets this season, while the men's squad falls to 3-3.
Sophomore Kendra Rottier (Green Bay, Wis.) was a two-time winner for the Phoenix women, taking the 1650-yard freestyle in 17:15.45 before winning the 200 butterfly in 2:07.18.
Also racing to victories for the Green Bay women were Amanda Walker (Sun Prairie, Wis.) in the 200 free (1:54.56), Emilee Harry (Sheboygan, Wis.) in the 50 free (24.56) and Amber Bartholomew (Alexandria, Minn.) in the 200 IM (2:06.56).

|Replica Mine Discovered at TUL
Inert Ordnance and Grenades Etc. – We continue to find inert hand grenades and other weaponry on weekly basis. Please keep in mind that if an item looks like a realistic bomb, grenade, mine, etc., it is prohibited - real or not. When these items are found at a checkpoint or in checked baggage, they can cause significant delays. I know they are cool novelty items, but it is best not to take them on a plane. Read here and here on why inert items cause problems.
- A replica Claymore mine was detected in a checked bag at Tulsa (TUL). It was determined to be inert and had the word "dummy" scrawled upon it.
- Two inert detonators were detected in carry-on bags at San Diego (SAN) and Denver (DEN).
- An HG-1 training grenade in an instructor's checked bag caused the checked baggage area at Bradley (BDL) to be closed for 20 minutes.
- 3 inert grenades were discovered this week. Two in checked baggage at Seattle (SEA) & Anchorage (ANC), and the other in a carry-on bag at Oklahoma City (OKC).
|Pocket knife hidden in a potato chip can at Austin
Items in the Strangest Places –It's important to check your bags prior to traveling. If a prohibited item is discovered in your bag, you could be cited and possibly arrested by local law enforcement. Here are a few examples from this week where prohibited items were found in strange places.
- A pocketknife was discovered in a potato chip can at Austin (AUS). New cutting edge flavor?
- An Atlanta passenger approached a flight attendant and asked her if she had ever been hijacked before.

There is an immediately apparent personality on display here, and I think we get a good sense of the conflict. There is an engaging hook (kid having to move away, doesn't want to), and let's face it, the prospect of moving to a town named after an Italian scooter couldn't be appealing to any teenager.
I broke my thoughts down into two main sections:
Balancing showing and telling
I'm afraid I didn't feel that the balance between showing and telling is quite working itself out in this page. On the one hand the author demonstrates mood through gesture, which is an example of showing, but I wasn't quite sure that enough was gained from the gestures. On the other hand, there are other moments that are a bit too tell-y.
Let's start with the showing. My reservation with the gestures is that they are a bit too what-you'd-expect-from-a-teenager-who-doesn't-want-to-move. Glares, footstomps, anger at parent... pretty much exactly what you'd anticipate. While I think we do get a basic sense of the narrator's personality, I'm concerned she doesn't quite feel unique enough, and that there could be more gained from some unique reactions and perspectives.
And also cutting against the narration, there are moments when we're told precisely what the protagonist is thinking ("The reference to home bothered me more than I wanted my mom to know.", "The two months after my mom announced we were moving made me feel like I was losing my mind"), and I wanted to see those effects in action and for those feelings to be shown.
I've tackled showing vs. telling before, and my basic rule of thumb is that you shouldn't "tell" universal emotions - instead it's better to show how a character is reacting to those emotions. Better still if that character is reacting to those emotions in a unique fashion. We all experience the same basic emotions - how we react to those emotions is what makes us unique.
Stilted Dialogue
Dialogue does not have to sound precisely like real life, but it has to give enough of an impression of real life dialogue that we believe it. I'm afraid I just didn't believe all of the dialogue here. The mom's first line especially ("Child-like antics really don't suit you, Kenz") feels stilted. Would someone say "Child-like antics?" or would they say something like, "You're acting like a child?" Then again, I love the line, "You have two nights left to mope around.", which reveals more than anything else in that paragraph.
The stilted dialogue is symptomatic of a bit of overwriting in general - the paragraphs feel like they could use some streamlining, which I'll try and pinpoint in the redline.
Still, I feel like there is some promising writing here. Like many of you I really liked the last line, and I'd be curious to see where this goes.
Title: A New Day
Genre: YA comtemporary romance
I slammed the car door and shouldered my way past the men scattered around the front yard Can you shoulder your way through people who are scattered? Don't you normally shoulder your way through a crowd?. I spotted my mother and just about growled at her Do people consciously just about growl? while waving my hands at the moving van. "This is ridiculous. Get my stuff out of there!" I tried not to stomp my foot, but apparently my desperation caused my body parts to take control over my brain this feels overwritten, and a bit too self-aware. She tries not to stomp her foot, does, and then reasons that her desperation is causing her body parts to take control of her brain? Couldn't she just stomp? .
"Child-like antics really don't suit you, Kenz, not sure I believe this" my mother replied with a voice that left no doubt that she was sick of me we know how it sounds from the dialogue. "You have two nights left to mope around I like this, and it conveys everything in the last dialogue/tag far more effectively. They're only here for the big furniture this time."
"Fine, I'll sit on lawn chairs and sleep on the floor then feels stilted. You need to give up this moving idea and stay here with me, because I'm not going anywhere."
"This life isn't for us anymore. We're going home." One finger went up as she saw my mouth open for another protest. "Spend tonight with your friends. Tomorrow's going to be busy and we leave first thing Sunday morning."
The two months after my mom announced we were moving made me feel like I was losing my mind the two months make her feel like she was losing her mind? Or the announcement? Precision! . Vespa, Wisconsin was the last place on earth I wanted to live. It was her home, not mine really like this.

Police blotter Week of 8-11-14
By Tim Clifford
Frightening attack on woman in West Seattle
On Aug. 2 West Seattle police officers were dispatched to interview a victim at a Shoreline hotel about an attack that had occurred the night before in West Seattle. The victim was unsure of the exact location of where she was attacked but remembers seeing street signs that suggest she was on the 8100 block of 12 Ave. S.W.
The night before the victim had been celebrating her birthday at a club in downtown and was drinking very heavily. Drinking mostly Hennessey and coke the victim eventually passed out, though she is not sure where or when exactly that occurred.
When the victim awoke she was in a bathtub, naked and there was a man (the suspect) standing over her attempting to strangle her. The victim fought with the suspect and was eventually dragged from the tub and into a living room where the suspect began whipping her all over with his belt. Another suspect was also in the room watching and threw a dress at the victim for her to put on while she was on floor. The dress did not belong to the victim, but as soon as she put it on she ran for the door and ran to a neighbor's house for help.
As this neighbor was sitting with the victim they saw both suspects come out of the house and begin searching for her. The victim ran through yards and tried to stay off the street to avoid being seen by the suspects.
Once the victim lost the suspects she got a passerby to lend her their phone and called the hotel she was staying at in Shoreline to tell them not to let anyone into her room (the suspects still had her wallet and keys). A police officer was in the lobby of this hotel and heard the conversation and attempted to dispatch officers to her location, however the cellphone reception cut out. The victim contacted officers once she was back at her hotel.
The victim described the suspect as a black male in his late 30's who was driving a silver Mercedes sedan with temporary license plates. The victim also remembers the house as being blue. Though the victim does not believe she was sexually assaulted she did later find what appeared to be residue from duct tape on her body. The victim declined medical attention. The suspects remain at large.
Lawnmower man and woman
On the 1700 block of S.W. Trenton St. on July 29 a woman called police to report that her lawnmower had been stolen. The incident occurred around noon while the victim was at work.
A neighbor told police that he noticed a white jeep with a notably loud exhaust pull into the alleyway between the houses. The driver was described as a white woman with dirty blonde hair. When the suspect stopped the Jeep a black male with a thin build in his 20's got out of the vehicle and walked into the victim's yard and then began loading up the lawnmower and a gas can.
The neighbor didn't think much of the proceedings until he noticed that the male suspect was carrying a set of bolt cutters. The victim locks her yard with a bicycle lock and used a chain on her mower as well. Both locks were missing from the scene.
The suspects remain mowing lawns at large.
Crimes reported between July 31 and Aug. 7
Burglaries by block: 7100 block of 1 Ave. S., 8100 block of 11 Ave. S.W., 8400 block of Delridge WY S.W., 8600 block of 46 Ave. S.W., 9000 block of 35 Ave. S.W., 700 block of S. Cloverdale St., 500 block of S. Donovan St.
Car prowls by block: 4200 block of California Ave. S.W., 3000 block of S.W. Avalon WY, 5300 block of Beach Dr. S.W., 6500 block of 35 Ave. S.W., 7700 block of 11 Ave. S.W., 8400 block of 10 Ave. S.W.

QUINCY, Mass. -- The Stop & Shop Supermarket Company announced the special dedication of a 400 kilowatt fuel cell at its Torringford Street store in East Torrington, Conn.
According to the company, the fuel cell, a UTC Power PureCell System Model 400, was supported with a grant from the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund's On-Site Renewable Distributed Generation Program and is the first fuel cell utilized by the Stop & Shop Supermarket Company. It is expected to generate over 90% of the store's electric energy.
"In our commitment to be a sustainable company, we continually look for new innovations and technologies that help us build more energy efficient stores," said Jihad Rizkallah, VP store planning for Stop & Shop. "The fuel cell technology is the latest step we've taken to ensure we're doing everything we can to lower our impact to the environment in each community we serve."
Since the fuel cell was commissioned in June of last year, it has produced over 1.7 million kilowatt-hours of electricity, accounting for 95% of the store's total electric energy requirements. This, coupled with the use of the thermal energy produced by the fuel cell, has reduced the total electric and natural gas utility bills for the store by roughly 50%.
"Stop & Shop did an outstanding job integrating this fuel cell into its new, energy-efficient supermarket in Torrington and maximizing the energy attributes of the fuel cell," said Dale Hedman, acting president of the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund. "The store will not only benefit from electricity produced by the fuel cell but will also benefit from the fuel cell's waste heat, which will be used for heating, cooling and refrigeration."

Arsène Wenger believes Sunday's trip to Manchester City will reveal more about the strength of his squad.
Arsenal have enjoyed an unbeaten start to the Premier League season and got off to a winning start against Montpellier in the Champions League on Tuesday.
But Wenger believes this weekend's game in particular is the ultimate test for Arsenal's championship credentials.
"I am very ambitious and I know that before the game starts," said the Frenchman. "It will tell us a lot about our quality. How we handle the big games will decide how well we do in the championship. That is why it is an interesting weekend for us.
"I have no doubt about the desire and hunger of my squad. It will just tell you how strong we are at the moment.
"I believe we are quite strong but we have some room for improvement. All is not perfect but the signs we are giving are very good and very strong.
"The hunger is massive in this squad. They want to do well. They are focused. They want to win. We want to continue to improve because we have many new players. It is a big test to see how strong we are."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Today's Hours: 10AM – 5PM
American, 1898–1976
"The universe is real but you can't see it. You have to imagine it. Once you imagine it, you can be realistic about reproducing it."
Alexander "Sandy" Calder was born in Pennsylvania to a family of artists. As a child he built toys for himself and his sister, and at the age of seventeen he began studying engineering. He later moved to New York and then Paris, where he created a miniature circus from wire and found materials. Performances of the circus provided Calder an entrée into Parisian art circles. He made his first "mobile" sculpture in 1931 and soon abandoned his early motor-driven versions for those that oscillated naturally.Let Calder inspire your students to: - Create a mobile that is representative of an animal. - Use wire to "draw" a portrait of a person or an animal from a photograph or a model. - Create wearable sculpture using telephone wire. - Practice contour drawing by creating a scene using only one line. - Create utensils for a place setting using wire, paper cups, and paper plates. - Use found objects to create a class circus.Books for students:Sandy's Circus: A Story About Alexander Calder, Tanya Lee StoneThe Calder Game, Blue BalliettWeb resources:Virtual Mobile, MathCatsInside Scoop: Alexander Calder, National Gallery of ArtFind out more from The Museum of Modern Art:Spider, gallery label text

Rob Burbank's Outdoors with the AMC: NH nongame wildlife program marks quarter-century
ROB BURBANK | July 12. 2013 11:05PM
The program provides management support for species not fished, hunted or trapped, and it is credited with restoring dwindling populations of such species as New Hampshire's State Butterfly, the Karner Blue, in Concord, and sea birds inhabiting the Isles of Shoals.
The program has also engaged volunteers in monitoring dragonfly distribution and reptile and amphibian populations across the state. Findings, in particular rare species verification, are added to a long-term database. That information is used to help inform land management decisions.
"In the mid-1980s, a crisis was emerging for New Hampshire's threatened and endangered birds, mammals and fish. Wildlife habitat was exposed to enormous pressure from development and recreational activities. Populations were dwindling. Species were disappearing," explained John Kanter, program coordinator, in a news release.
Speaking of anniversaries, the Appalachian Mountain Club is celebrating the 125th anniversary of its White Mountains hut system this year. Fashioned after the alpine huts of Europe, these trailside hostelries offer mountain hospitality, meals, lodging and educational programs in spectacular mountain settings.
The easternmost AMC hut, Carter Notch Hut, was recently recognized in the Best Adventure category of New Hampshire Magazine's Best of NH awards.
