If I could give the staff more stars, I would! Everyone was so very helpful, especially Anna. I really appreciated their kindness and warmth during a difficult time.Jessica Jarrett

Y'all have done great with my mom and her passing unexpectedly. Your staff has walked us through everything we needed to do. This has been the hardest thing my sister's and I have had to deal with. Yet have been patient with us. I am extremely impressed with y'all service without a doubt top of the line. Thank you for everything you have done.Nathan Lincoln

I want to thank each and everyone of you for your kindness and compassion recently, in taking care of my Mom's Funeral arrangements. All of you were so very helpful in making difficult decisions from a distance, seem so easy. Everything was simply beautiful and there were so many comments of how wonderful her appearance was along with comments of how efficient y'all work to make the visitation and the service so special. I guess for over 70 years the Roy Davis Family has buried The Gordon and The Carlisle families.Becky Carlisle Farrell

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! The staff here was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. Extremely satisfied with the way they provided one-on-one guidance and compassion towards myself and my family members during our time of loss.Will recommend to anyone who is seeking superior service for their loved ones.Misha DeMon

My family has been relying on Davis-Struempf and the Davis Family for more than 50 years. Even though you are having to deal with a time of grief, they are there to make sure all the details are covered. When someone passes on, there is a great deal of business to be handled. They have the knowledge and resources to guide you through seamlessly. In a difficult time, it is nice to know that you can work with someone that is like family. Thank you to them for all of your assistance and patience. VictoriaVictoria Fricks
Thank you for your care and efficiency as you led us through the funeral process. The video was so very well done. We appreciated it more than we can say.J.P.
March 20, 2013
We would like to take this opportunity to send our most heartfelt thanks to you, Debbie, and your staff. As I said when we spoke, you made this time for us most calming. You have a wonderful facility and staff. Thank you again.R.C.
Davis-Struempf took wonderful care of both of my parents. They are caring, helpful, and compassionate. They became totally involved with our entire family, and made a horrible time much more bearable. Even better, a good sense of humor came through occasionally to put things in perspective.Kathy L. Cowan
April 19, 2011
My family has been coming to Davis-Struempf for many years. I have been to other funeral homes for other friends and loved ones and none of them has shown the love or compassion that your staff has. Not only to the grieving family but to the loved one that has passed. I have and will continue to recommend Davis-Struempf Funeral Home to friends and strangers that have no idea who to come to when this sad moment crosses their paths.Dana Driver
April 19, 2011
My immediate family has never felt more love and compassion than from the wonderful staff at Davis-Struempf Funeral Home. Jim, Debbie, Sabrina & Kyle are like family, in fact. I can't imagine going anywhere else when the unfortunate happens. Their attention to every detail is second to none.Charlie Sexton

In A Tale of Two Cities what is Charles Darnay's professional and personal condition after his uncle dies?
- print Print
- list Cite
After his uncle's Charles Darnay marries Lucy Manette and continues to work as a tutor. This is significant because he is now the heir to the title Marquis St. Evremonde.
Darnay renounced his family name when he left for England, but he still cared about his uncle. Darnay returns to visit his uncle, the Marquis St. Evremonde, and questions his family's perpetual mistreatment and exploitation of the poor. His uncle refuses to change his ways, believing he is entitled to his privileged position. Very soon after Darnay leaves, the marquis is stabbed to death.
Unable to change his uncle's ways, Darnay accepts the fact that you cannot choose your family and tells Dr. Manette his real name (causing him to have another shoe-making relapse). He marries Lucy, and settles into domestic contentment. However even though he renounced the title, he is still the new Marquis St. Evremonde and is marked for death by Madame Defarge and the revolutionaries.

At the end of last summer, my husband and I finally had the chance to go to Europe together for the first time. We had a two week trip booked – the main purpose of which was to visit friends who had recently moved to the Netherlands – but we also wanted to fit in a few side trips – after all, there is SO MUCH to see in Europe!
I was told by several people that visiting Paris is a little cliche, but people, come one – it's cliche for a reason! The Tour Eiffel! La Louvre! Les Crepes! Paris is a cultural icon across the world, and I would not be talked out of going. We planned to arrive in Paris on a Sunday afternoon and leave again on Thursday morning, giving us 3 full days and four nights.
While we were on luxurious-for-us trip sans les enfants, we were definitely on a modest budget. Not a walk-everywhere-and-eat-only-bread kind of budget, but a budget none-the-less.
How to Keep in Touch
First things first: Let's be honest, we can't even navigate our own country without GPS these days – who wants to be wandering around a 2,000 year old city with a pathetic, at best, grasp of the native language? And seriously: if you take a selfie with the Eiffel Tower and you can't post it to Instagram, are you really there?
It's not as common in Europe to have wireless access everywhere you go – and if you decide to book an Air B'n'B place for your trip, you might have internet or you might not. And yet. We've all heard horror stories of people being charged insane amounts of money for roaming data on their phone while traveling abroad.
Fortunately, there's a mobile provider in Canada who's got you covered for your budget trips to Europe. We used Rogers Roam like Home in Florida last winter and it was a revelation to be able to use our phones as per usual when on vacay! Last year, when Rogers announced that you could now #RoamOn in Europe at the same time as we booked our flights to Europe, I knew that our trip was meant to be. It had been smiled upon by the tech gods.
For $10 / day, we could use our phones exactly like we did back home in Ontario. Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Facetime, a little bit of Netflix here and there – everything was on the table. As long as you're on a Share Everything Plan, you don't even have to do anything to get the deal. When you land in Europe and turn your data on, it's $10 for the day – to a maximum of 10 days. More than 10 days in Europe? Perfect. You get the rest of the days (in the billing period) for free! Don't want to roam that day? Turn off your data. You won't be charged.
I'd like to just say, at this point in time, that although I'm a Rogers Social Insider, they are NOT PAYING ME to write about this! Come on – you know me – I luuurv a good deal like this. It's EXACTLY what this frugal sole lives for.
Where to Stay
There are a lot of hotels in Paris, in case you didn't already know, and Paris is a reasonably big city – so the question is, where in the city do you want to stay? Paris is divided up into 20 different municipal districts called Arrondissments. The arrondissments are numbered in in a spiral from the middle of the city all the way to the outskirts.
Now, traditional travel wisdom will tell you that the lower the number, the better the neighbourhood for tourists. I, however, say IT'S PARIS – it's ALL good for tourists! Ok, with maybe one exception – the border between the 8th & 19th arrondissements is called the Quartier Pigalle – and that's where you'll find the Red Light district.
Do some reading on the arrondissements and get a feel for which district fits you and your style. Some are known for their lively night life, others for their fancy shops or tourist traps. It's important to note that you don't have to stay in the 7th just to be close to the Eiffel Tower – you'll have a view of the tower from almost everywhere, and you really don't need to visit it every day.
The closer you are to the centre of the city, the bigger the price tag on your hotel room. Speaking of which, since most buildings in Paris are very old, the hotel rooms aren't what you'd call "large"…. I highly recommend checking out Airbnb for accommodations. We found a little one room apartment in the 14th arrondissements that was perfect. It was tiny – I'll grant you that – but most Paris apartments are tiny and this one actually had a separate bedroom (unlike most we found!).
Our bedroom window looked across the street to the Best Western Bretagne Montparnasse and we could see that (while they were quite a bit more stylish and beautiful than ours) their bedrooms were a little smaller than ours, and they didn't even have a livingroom or kitchen. We were paying $15 less a night than we would have at that hotel and we had 3x the space. Score.
How to Get Around
Public Transportation
The Upside:
Public transit in Europe is fantastic. You can get almost anywhere you need to go, because their transit lines are crazily comprehensive. Walk 5 minutes and you'll be at a Metro station.
The Downside:
It's not particularly cheap, and it's super complicated. There's the Paris Metro and the RER system, and they're linked, but not the same. You can't transfer from one to the next, and some types of tickets are only good on one or the other. Also, not all of the buses are integrated with the transit system, and if you want to get a travel pass for a longer period of time, you have to figure out what zones you're going to be traveling in, because your pass won't work outside of the zone that you purchased it for.
If any locals or expats living in Paris read this, they'll probably tell me that it's really easy – and I'm quite sure that it is, once you've been living there for a while.
Paris has a short-term bike sharing system called "Velib." They have bike stations scattered all over Paris (and I do mean ALL OVER). Locals have year long passes, but tourists can purchase day passes and use the bikes to get from one tourist trap to the next with great ease.
The Upside:
It's SO CHEAP! For a mere $2.50 a day, you can pick up a bike, cycle down to the Eiffel Tower, and return your bike. Wanna head over to the Louvre next? Grab another bike, head over, and park your bike again.
It's so convenient! There are stations ALL OVER Paris! (Did I say that already?) Seriously.
It helps you burn off those oh-so-worth-it calories from the wine and the cheese and the Creme Brulee and the Croque Monseiur and the chocolate while you're making your way to your next destination.
The Downside:
It rains in Paris. Kind of a lot. We arrived in Paris in the rain, just as Sabrina told Linus to do in my favourite black & white movie, Sabrina, and the rain kept coming. We got very wet on the bikes.
It's quite hilly in Paris. I'm not good at biking up hills.
When the weather shifts, the wind blows. At this point, we parked our Velibs and headed over to the metro stop.
Car Rentals:
The Upside:
They hide you from the waves of rain and keep you cozy and dry.
Car rentals in Paris – in Europe – are cheap. But it's not the rental that's expensive…
The Downside:
Gas – or Petrol – is SO EXPENSIVE! $1.90/L ? No thanks!
Parking! There are no parking spots for cars – at least not where any tourist wants to go! Plus, most hotels don't have much in the way of parking, and the spots they do have are expensive.
Who wants to crane their necks out of a car window to see if they can catch a glimpse of the Eiffel Tower?! You'll miss half of the gorgeous buildings!
We rented a Vespa from VespaLibre for 2 days and had an absolute BLAST!
The Upside:
Um, HELLO! Riding a Vespa around a European city? ah-mazing. No craning your neck to look out the windows.
Faster than public transit! Less work than biking!
No problem finding parking spots – park anywhere!
Jump from point to point in Paris quickly, while swerving in and out of quieter, yet still gorgeous, neighbourhoods.
Look super cool while being a tourist.
Go farther distances (like to Versailles), still without having to worry about parking.
The Downside:
It's the priciest option.
Navigating traffic in Paris is not for the faint of heart. You've got to be quick and decisive and watch absolutely everything around you.
What to See
You could spend months in Paris as a professional tourist and still not see everything. You need to decide what tops your Must-See list during your visit, because you won't be able to do everything. You can try, but then you won't be doing much of anything. Plus, going to visit a landmark doesn't mean that you have to go in.
Everyone's list is going to be a bit different. We walked past the huge lines to the front of the cathedral and managed to grab a free tour at Sacre Coeur, then spent 2 hours there, but that might not be your cup of tea.
If the Eiffel Tower is what has drawn you to Paris, keep in mind that the line ups for the stairs and the lifts are CRAZY in the summer. That, and the fact that what makes Paris Paris is the Eiffel Tower. Once you're in it, looking out onto the city, it's just a European city. Use the $25 to grab some finger food and a bottle of wine at a supermarche and picnic under the tower. The pictures will be far better, and you won't have to waste precious Paris hours standing in line. [FYI: did you know that supermarkets in Paris sell small bottles of with that COME WITH PLASTIC WINE GLASSES? They WANT you to go out and have a glass of wine in the park!]
The Louvre is an absolutely ginormous museum chock full of art of all persuasions. You absolutely can not see everything – or even 25% of the contents, for that matter – in the museum in a day. The Mona Lisa – the most popular and well known piece in the museum – is 1′ x 2′ – that's not large. It's set behind glass, and there are constant crowds around it. My advice: unless museums are your thing when you travel, stop by the Louvre. Check out the building and the grounds. There are some beautiful gardens called Les Jardins des Tuilieres attached in which you could easily spend hours wandering.
The Catacombs were on my list to see, but, even though it was raining on the morning that we wandered over, the lineup to get in was around the block. We opted to forego the underground walls lined with skulls in favour of sitting down for a coffee and fresh pastry instead. Even though this was a must-see when we arrived, I feel that we made the right choice – because there is nothing more Parisian than sitting on a sidewalk of a cafe.
Versailles is not in Paris, but is an easy day trip out. It is magnificent and opulent, and I would absolutely recommend that you skip the palace outright. Only about 1/2 of the Palace of Versailles is open to the public right now, and while you're touring the place you'll find yourself shoulder to shoulder with the hundreds of other tourists who have come to bask in the presence of Marie Antoinette. My advice: SKIP THE PALACE. (Did I say that already? Because I really mean it.)
You can get into the gardens of Versailles for free, and the gardens are incredible. They go on and on and on. For $16, you can get entrance to Le Petit et Le Grand Trianons – the Royal Family Getaways. (Le Petit Trianon was where Marie Antoinette had her little hobby farm). You save $16 by not doing the Palace, and you save the 90 minutes of waiting in line. Trust me. You can look at pictures of the interior of the palace online. Roaming the gardens and exploring the royal family getaways is where it's at in Versailles.
In Conclusion
Paris can be as cheap or as expensive as you make it. If you absolutely HAVE to see and do everything, you're going to spend a lot more money. If you can figure out what means the most to you and let go of the others, you can make your trip to Paris fit neatly into your budget.
The romance of Paris comes from the movies and TV shows and books and stories that we've heard, and you don't have to pay a dime while you're there to experience that. Just put on your shoes and wander down the street and into a local park. Look at the buildings that have been there for 400 years. Sit under the trees in front of the beautifully old fountain and drink a glass of wine. Walk hand in hand with your love under the Eiffel Tower.

102nd Pennsylvania Infantry – Pennsylvania Memorial at Gettysburg
Posted By Norman Gasbarro on April 15, 2011
(Part 19 of an ongoing series on the Battle of Gettysburg). Around the base of the Pennsylvania Memorial at Gettysburg are a series of plaques which, by regiment and company, note the names of every soldier who was present at the Battle of Gettysburg. This post will present the plaque recognizing the men who served in the 102nd Pennsylvania Infantry. By clicking on the plaque it should enlarge so the names can be more clearly read. Following the plaque is a list of the men who have thus far been identified as eligible for inclusion in this Civil War Research Project who, it is believed, served for a time in the 102nd Pennsylvania Infantry. Not all the names may appear on the Pennsylvania Memorial plaques. If a name does not appear, it could be that the soldier did serve in the 102nd Pennsylvania Infantry, but was not part of the regiment during its days at Gettysburg – or it could mean that the soldier was erroneous included in the 102nd Pennsylvania Infantry list. There could also be errors on the plaque. Readers are invited to submit comments about any names appearing below, or on the plaque, especially if they believe the soldier was from the Lykens Valley area and should be included in this study.
Men from the Lykens Valley area who probably served in the 102nd Pennsylvania Infantry:
Isaac Brown —– Michael Schall
Information for this post was taken from the files of the Civil War Research Project. A separate digital file is kept on each of the above-named men. Information is sought on any men from the Lykens Valley area who were soldiers or sailors during the Civil War.
7 Responses to "102nd Pennsylvania Infantry – Pennsylvania Memorial at Gettysburg"
2 uncles and a cousin fought with the 102nd pa. Aaron B Whittaker and James Whittaker. Also William M. Wittaker.
I am in the process of purchasing a home in McCandless, Pa, and there are two gravestones on the property, both civil war veterans, one of which is William M. Whittaker. I am curious if you are aware of the location of this gravestone, or if you happen to know any details of why it is there. It is just in a back yard of the home, built in 1950. The death date on the gravestone is 4/26/26.
I can't believe that I found your post while researching my ancestor/Civil War veteran William M. Whitaker! I wonder if you would be willing to send me a picture of the gravestone and maybe a rubbing? Also, can you tell me what name is on the other gravestone? Thank you!
My 3rd Great Grandfather was in the 102nd PA. His name was Joseph W. McManamy. Do you have any information on him?
My great, great, great grandfather Thomas Jonh McLowry was w/ the 102nd Company A. I have copies of 2 casualty reports and prisoner exchange record. He was wounded at Fair Oaks and Malvern Hill. He was furloughed for 2 months and reported back for duty on July 1, 1863, Just in time for Gettysburg. He was a private but was a corporal by Battle of Fair Oaks. I also have some of his muster roles.

30 Jun 2011 SeatConcepts Seat Review
After pretty much getting every other mod on my list for my WR, I decided to jump in the WRR forum group buy and try out Seat Concepts' seat. The reports from owners who already had the seat said it made a big enough difference and well worth the price. So.. I was in. Now, from what many veteran WR dual sport riders have said is that the stock seat is much better than most in it's class. This is why I put the aftermarket seat rather low on my list.
So, back in February I put my name on the list and sent Robert at Seat Concepts my weight & $132 bucks. This would include the new seat foam and seat cover of my choosing, I decided on the black standard height with center gripper section and carbon fiber vinyl sides. You still use the stock WR seat pan with the new foam and cover. Or you can send them your stock seat pan and have them install the foam & cover for you.. but I choose to do it myself…
I removed the stock seat cover from the pan using a flathead screw driver and needle nose pliers. It was very easy to remove! Here you can see both foams…
Side by side seat foams
The Seat Concepts seat came with some tips on how to install the new foam and cover. I used some 3M Super 77 Multipurpose Adhesive spray adhesive as instructed on the stock seat pan, then put the new foam on. Allowing it plenty of time to dry.
The biggest issue I had was finding the right stapler to do the job. I first started with a hand stapler.. no good, it didn't work at all. While holding the cover tight then trying with the other hand to staple it through the seat pan is a mighty task. So, I headed to Harbor Freight to look for a pneumatic stapler that will shoot 1/4″ staples.. but they didn't have any. Next stop was Rural King.. and bam.. they had a stapler that would do the job. I picked up a Surebonder Model 9600, under $40 bucks too. I couldn't find 1/4″ stainless steel staples anywhere locally, so I had to just get regular galvanized steel Arrow JT21 1/4″ crown staples.
Wow.. now things got very easy! Using the pneumatic stapler is really the only way to do a good job on recovering the seat pan if you ask me. You can get the cover pulled tight and then snap a staple right threw the cover into the plastic. One thing I recommend doing is take the old seat cover, place it on the seat pan and then using your pneumatic stapler give it a go. Adjust the air pressure so the staple doesn't just go right through the cover. A few minutes later I had the seat cover on, nice and tight. Next I cut some access seat cover off of the corners and then put my new seat back on my WR. I approve!
Since you are using the stock seat pan there's no fitment issues to worry about. Here's a few photos of the seat.. it fits perfectly even with my Safari gas tank.
Monkey Butt?!?
The real test is… is it worth it? When you feel the Seat Concepts foam you immediately feel a major difference in foams. Seat Concepts is softer, yet more solid. If this makes sense.. the stock foam just has the same consistency. Whereas the Seat Concepts is softer but more firm as pressure is applied. It's pretty darn cool.
My first long trip with the seat was my Trans-Missouri Trail ride.. over 730 miles and I definitely noticed a big difference! I kept an eye on the mileage to see when my gluteus maximus would begin to get soar.. I'll have to say it was a good, 40-50 miles LONGER on this seat than the stock. I don't care what seat you have or how much money you threw at it.. your rear will be soar after so many hours on the saddle. With that said, you can easily add more comfort to your ride by upgrading your seat.
I personally give the Seat Concepts seat two thumbs up.. it's wider, softer, gripper and has done what it's purpose is to do.. give me more miles on the saddle. It is a tad bit taller than the stock seat, but you can have Robert sculpt it to your liking and your body weight. This is really important when getting an aftermarket seat. Here's what I do know.. my Versys has this Corbin seat on it.. cost about four times as much as the Seat Concepts seat (luckily it came on my Versys when I bought it), weights about 100 lbs and is not anywhere near as comfy as my WR Seat Concepts seat. My plan is to talk with Robert over the winter months and see if they could do a custom seat for the Versys.. that would be awesome!
If you are in the market to upgrade your stock seat for your WR250R or any other bike for that matter, I highly recommend contacting Robert at Seat Concepts and see if this upgrade is for you. I know your butt will be happier for it!

What do you think of my concluding paragraph on a text-to-text connection on theme?
Being that both novels, Emily Goldberg Learns to Salsa and Bread Givers relate to each other substantially, they have different themes of poverty, background, and heritage. The characters are slightly alike and different. The authors of both novels make it seem very realistic. They share common themes of cultural identity and tradition. Both young girls struggle to find new beginnings and adapt to their culture and environment. Anzia Yezierska and Micol Ostow leads us to meet two young girls who are able to define themselves through their culture and prosper in life.

- list Cite
Sentence One-- Good topic sentence--I would like to see a transition word at the beginning to signal readers that this is your conclusion.
Sentence 2-- This sentence feels very vague, be more specific on which characters are most similar and why they are similar (address what you already discussed in your previous body paragraphs), something like "Even though Emily and the Smolinsky sisters (or Sara) are naturally different through circumstance, they both strive to find their identity within their Jewish heritage.
Sentence 3: This sentence also feels vague because of the "it." "The authors make it," but what is "it"? Is "it" the characterization of Emily and Sara? Replace "it" with something more defined.
Sentence 4: Who are "they?" The authors? The novels? Sara and Emily? Replace "they" with "The novels." Again--anytime you can get rid of vague pronouns in favor of something more specific, do so!
Sentence 5: I have never been a fan of the "new beginnings" phrase that cropped up some in your other paragraphs as well. It sounds vague too, and a little cheesy. I think if you rephrase that part with some help from the thesaurus, it will have more resonance and meaning for your entire essay.
Sentence 6: I like this sentence and how you refer back to the authors. Change your verb tense from "leads" to "lead," and if it were my essay, I would delete the "in life" from the end of the sentence; I think "prosper" is your stronger thought, and you want to end on a powerful word. 'Life' is not a powerful word--in fact, one of my professors told me to never use it in my writing and to avoid it like the plague. Change "young girls" to "young women," because Emily and Sara really are not "young girls," but are really transitioning into adulthood.
Good thoughts and good concluding paragraph! Remember to keep it as specific and sharp to the point as you possibly can. Think about choosing powerful, meaningful words to strengthen your position.

This payment plan, exclusive to Business Users, effectively allows you to 'hire' vehicles as opposed to owning them. This way, drivers need not be concerned about issues such as residual values or selling the vehicle when the finance term is up. A contract hire agreement from Audi Finance can run over one, two, three or four years.
If you are a VAT registered business a proportion of the rentals may be tax deductible. Contract hire is classified as an operating lease for current taxation purposes, therefore it is regarded differently to 'purchase' contracts so you may benefit from certain tax advantages.

The big ginger tom was sniffing around the back door when Holly came into the kitchen, phone still cradled against her ear as she rinsed her wine glass out.
"No, Angie. Seriously, I have stuff to do Friday. Thanks for the invite, though." She crouched down to rub the cat's head, and he gave her a rusty mewl. "Yes, I'll see you Sunday at Mum's. Yes. Yes. No. I'll bring – I dunno, something. A cake. Fine, a diet cake." She rolled her eyes at Apple, and he pawed the door pointedly. "I'll buy it, okay? Okay. Bye. Yes. Bye. Bye." She hung up, sighing. "Who knew Sunday lunch could be such a production, Apps? Who knew." He regarded her with orange eyes, then scratched the door again. She shook her head. "It's not outside time."
She put the kettle on, although she did think she'd rather another glass of wine after speaking to Angie. She'd always rather another glass of wine after speaking to her. "My sister is bad for my health," she told Apple, and he huffed at her, tail flicking irritably from side to side as he paced in front of the door. "What's up with you, kitten?"
He pawed the door again, and gave her a look which said pretty clearly that she was being thick. She frowned. Marla and Trix had followed her to the kitchen and sat themselves in the hall doorway, unblinking eyes fixed on the back door, ears pricked and heads slightly lowered, as if they'd spotted movement through the frosted glass. The kettle clicked off, but she didn't move to fill her mug. There was an uneasy twist of dread in her belly – she knew the door was locked, it wasn't like there was anyone inside, but what if someone was just beyond the door, standing in the early winter dark, just standing and staring and watching and waiting?
Apple mewled again and she jumped, her heart rattling into hectic rhythm. Jesus, she needed to stop watching Penny Dreadful. She'd have decided it was some demon-witch out there in a minute. She strode to the door before she could change her mind, unlocked it and jerked it open, one foot already out to stop Apple making a break into the rainy darkness. He retreated hurriedly to where the she-cats waited, and she scowled at him. "Nice, dude. Thanks for the support." But there was no movement in the tiny back garden. No demon-witches or werewolves hanging out in the bedraggled veggie patch, at least not that she could see. It was hardly a nice night for it. She started to close the door again, and something squeaked. She paused, ignoring the low rumble of Apple's growl behind her, listening. Another squeak. She stepped out into the cold barefoot, stifling a little gasp as the rain hit her face. It was edging on for sleet.
"Kitty?" she called. "Here, puss puss puss?"
Another uncertain little squeak, then a bedraggled kitten staggered out of the shadows and stared up at her.
"Oh, well. Look at you." She crouched down, rubbing her fingers together and making encouraging little noises, and he picked his way closer. He was shivering wildly, and she let him sniff her fingers, her voice soft. "Just you, is it?" He squeaked again, almost soundless, and there was an answering mew from the flowerbed. She waited, ignoring the pinch of cold on her nose and feet, and a moment later another kitten, fur plastered flat by the rain, tottered towards her, followed by two more.
"Oh," she said. "This is going to be a full house."
The three cats remained in the doorway to the living room as Holly fussed over the kittens, drying them with tea towels and trying to confine them to a hurriedly assembled cat bed made up of a throw and a couple of hot water bottles. They followed her around instead, squeaking, trying to climb her pj's with their sharp little claws, complaining and begging. A little tabby wandered too close to the big cats and Marla hissed furiously, backing away, her pupils huge.
"Stop that," Holly told her, picking the stray kitten up and depositing her back on the blanket. "It's not like you weren't one once." Marla just growled, her tail flicking.
The kittens weren't interested in the cat's wet food, or even in some beaten egg. Holly sat cross-legged on the floor, trying to coax them to the bowls. "Come on. Just a little bit. You must be starving." But they just trundled around the kitchen investigating, and eventually she rubbed some egg on her fingers and picked up the little black kitten, the one that had come to her first. He was a little bigger than his siblings, and his legs stuck out rigidly as she scooped him up. "Here we go. Try this." She offered him her fingers, and he nuzzled them curiously, smearing egg all over his nose and chin. Holly sighed. But it was too late to call the vet or the RSPCA, so she was just going to have to do what she could. She looked at her own cats, still watching suspiciously from the doorway. "You could help, you know," she told them. "You could – Ow! Ow!"
She tried to tug the kitten off her finger, but he had both paws wrapped around it now, tiny claws dug into the flesh, and his teeth were well and truly embedded. Holly rested him in her lap, cursing whoever had dumped the damn things in her garden, and grabbed the scruff of his neck, lifting him and giving him a gentle shake. "Let go. Let go." He curled up helplessly, paws releasing, and she managed to prise her finger out of his mouth, seeing blood staining his teeth and the soft fur of his jaw. "Little brat." It wasn't bad – it hadn't even hurt that much after the initial shock – but blood was welling up in the neat punctures and dripping onto the floor. She put the kitten down and got up, examining the wound as she crossed to the sink, squeezing her finger to help it bleed out a little. Bloody vicious little thing.
With the water running, she didn't hear Apple growling. It wasn't until she heard the spit and snarl of the cat directly behind her that she turned, ready to scold him for being a grumpy old man. Instead she stopped, her finger raised like a schoolteacher, blood and water spiralling down it. The four kittens stood staring at her, barely a pace away. Staring at her finger, more precisely. The drops of blood on the floor were gone. And Apple stood between her and them, his ears back, lips drawn away from his worn teeth, rumbling a steady warning. The two she-cats were circling the room, adding their own complaints, hair spiked up along their backs.
"Apple?" Holly said, her voice not as steady as she would have liked. Although nothing had happened. Not really. The kitten had bitten her, as kittens do sometimes, and she must've just stepped on the blood droplets, and they were hungry, and that's why they were looking at her like that. As she watched, the black kitten tried a hiss at the older cat, and she could see blood matted onto his jaw still. She shivered, feeling suddenly tired and cold, aware that her hair was still damp from her little jaunt into the garden. She grabbed the tea towel, keeping her eyes on the kittens (just in case, but just in case of what? Did she think they were going to rush her? No, of course not, that was stupid), and flung it over them. Apple spat in surprise, backing into her legs, then lunged forward as the little tabby made a rush at him. His heavy paw caught the kitten hard enough to send her rolling sideways across the floor, and Holly snapped, "Enough!" The old tom didn't look at her or move, his tail slapping across her ankles as he growled. The kittens were mewling unhappily, and Holly pinched the bridge of her nose. She should put them in the carry cases, stop them getting stuck behind the stove or something, but she couldn't be bothered with it. Her thumb was throbbing in protest now. She looked at her furious, beautiful cats and said, "We're done. Bedtime, kids."
She grabbed a packet of hobnobs and some cat treats, then led the way out of the kitchen. The cats retreated carefully, still growling, skirting the kittens as they emerged from under the tea towel as if they were something poisonous and dangerous. She pulled the door shut as her unwelcome guests began to cry, and went to sit beside the gas fire, wishing she'd thought to bring the wine in with her. She felt like she needed it.
Holly woke sometime in the dim reaches of the night to a chorus of rumbling cats. They'd been restless, slow to sleep, prowling around the bedroom and out into the hall, every gust of wind making them jump and flinch. She'd caught their anxiety, despite the whiskey she'd had before bed. She'd had to drink it out of the dusty, ink-stained mug from her desk, but she hadn't wanted to go back into the kitchen. She didn't want to disturb the kittens, she told herself, thinking of the unblinking scrutiny of all those yellow eyes, and wondering, weren't kitten's eyes still blue at this age? Either way, she'd just rinsed the mug in the bathroom and poured a generous slug into it, and drunk it in front of some crappy American sitcom, and when she went to bed she'd walked past the kitchen door without looking at it. Let them make a mess. It'd clean.
Now she shushed the cats, pushing herself up in the bed, mouth sticky with the unaccustomed whiskey. "What's wrong?" she asked. The cats kept up their steady chorus of warning, and now she could dimly see the three of them arrayed across the foot of the bed like gargoyles on a roof top, snarling and muttering at something just out of sight. Her heart gave that little tick upwards again, and she felt heat flush her face. The kitchen door had been shut. There was no way the kittens could've got it open. Not even her own cats could get it open. She fumbled for the lamp, and Marla rushed at her, hissing a warning. Holly jerked her arm back, and the kitten that had made a lunge for her fell to the floor with a squawk. Marla gave her an exasperated look, then went back to patrolling the edge of the bed, while Holly gazed at the lamp longingly. How the hell had the damn thing even jumped that high? It was a kitten, for god's sake!
She took a slow breath, letting it out through her nose, giving it a yoga-count. This was ridiculous. They were kittens. At worst she'd get a few scratches. They weren't going to jump up here and eat her alive. She hoped. She reached out and hit the light switch above the bed rather than the lamp, squinting against the glare, and checked over the edge of the bed for furry attackers. Nothing. She considered it for a moment, then gathered her legs under her and took a jump to the middle of the floor. Four tiny bodies came rushing out from under the bed, clamouring for food, and she grabbed her dressing gown off the chair, spun back and flung it over them. The squeaking became rather more muffled, if no less frantic, and she bundled up the whole squirming lot then dumped in the laundry basket.
"There," she said to the cats, who still looked bushed-up and unhappy. "Tomorrow, we're off to the shelter. No wonder someone dumped them." She grabbed the basket and headed downstairs before they could get free.
In the morning, the kittens were waiting outside the bedroom door. Last night, she had pushed the laundry basket into the kitchen, shut the door again (wriggling the knob to make sure it was really shut), then climbed the stairs (how they got up those she had no idea) and got back into bed. After about ten minutes of watching the door she'd got up again, shut it, and pushed the chair behind it. If they got through that, they were truly super-kitties. She'd fallen asleep under the watchful eyes of her cats.
Now, she shooed the kittens ahead of her, watching them falling and tumbling on the bare wood of the stairs, utterly fearless. She'd put her fake Uggs and a pair of jeans on, and the kittens seemed slightly less intimidating with some thick fabric between them and her. They barrelled into the kitchen and she frowned, shaking them off as they tried to climb her jeans.
"What're we going to do with you?" she asked. "What can we get you to eat?" They squalled at her, mouths open like a quartet of hungry fledglings, and she opened the fridge to see if there was any inspiration inside. A steak – tonight's dinner – sat bleeding on a plate, and she remembered the splashes of blood on the wooden floor the night before. She knew she hadn't stood in it. She'd been barefoot, she'd have smeared it everywhere. She looked back at the kittens – the black one had climbed to her knee already – then took the plate out and set it on the floor.
She didn't even have time to get the wax paper off before the kittens were on it, purring like little feral sewing machines, sharp teeth nipping and ripping through the paper, hungry tongues lapping at the blood pooled on the plate. Holly straightened up, her face twisted in distaste. "That – that's not normal kitten behaviour." The cats, watching from the doorway, didn't offer any disagreement.
It was an odd sort of day. Holly skirted the kittens cautiously as she made her own breakfast, but once they were sated on the meat they crawled under the table, as far from the pale sunlight creeping in the windows as they could get, and fell asleep in a little fluffy pile of distended bellies and splayed paws. She put the meat back in the fridge for later, and fed the cats out in the hall, then went to her desk to start work.
All day the kittens slept. The RSPCA said they couldn't come unless it was desperately urgent – could she hold onto them for another day? She agreed grudgingly, looking at the three grown cats perched on the top of the bookshelf, eyes on the kitchen door. You expected disruptions with kittens, but this was something else. This was most certainly something else. Her punctured thumb throbbed as she worked, and she supposed she should go to the GP, but she wasn't leaving the kittens alone with the cats. She doused it in hydrogen peroxide instead, and hoped that'd do. Hoped they weren't rabid.
As dark drew down, the kittens emerged stretching and hungry. She dropped the meat in front of them, and watched with fascination as they attacked it again – less eagerly, though, as if they'd rather something a little fresher. Meat on the hoof, maybe. She sighed, and took a sandwich through to the living room, closing the door firmly behind her. If they were here much longer, she was going to have to think of something else.
She was reading when she heard the kitchen door open, and saw the cats' attention sharpen, their backs rising. She pushed herself out of her chair and reached for the oven gloves she'd put on the side table. "This is altogether enough of this," she called. "You've eaten better than anyone else in this house today -" her voice dried in her throat as the kittens padded clumsily into the room, which was as expected, but they were followed by a man, which wasn't. The doors and windows were all locked, she knew that. There'd been no sound of breaking glass, and only Angie had a key. And her sister would most certainly not have let this guy in. She'd probably have crossed the street to avoid him. He looked dirty. Unhealthy. There was no other way to describe him. His hair was unwashed and greasy, his polo shirt pilled and stained where it stretched across his belly, and there was a hole in the knee of his khaki trousers. He looked nervous, blinking uncomfortably under the lights, and some nasty sort of skin condition was spreading a flaky rash up his neck and into his hairline.
Holly found her voice before he did. "What the hell are you doing in my house?" she demanded.
He blinked at her, started to say something, cleared his throat and said, with a dramatic flick of his head (which sent a disturbing amount of loose skin drifting into the air), "I – am vampire!"
Holly stared at him, then nodded. "Well, good for you. Now get out before I call the cops."
He looked bewildered, then composed himself. "No – you are under my control. You will bend to my will!"
He was staring at her with bulging eyes, and she frowned. "I'm sorry. It's not working." The kittens had surrounded her, climbing her legs, and she pulled the oven gloves on to remove them. While she was distracted he rushed her clumsily, bumping into the coffee table, and she jumped back, putting the armchair between them. "What're you doing?"
"You're under my control!" he insisted. "You will obey me!" Trix hissed at him from the top of the bookshelf, and he flinched, raising an arm to protect himself.
"Wow. Okay, look, I know this is a thing, where people think they're vampires, but -"
"I am vampire!" he roared at her, and she stumbled backwards, hitting the shelving behind her. His face was contorted, canines blossoming into fangs that sliced into his lips, sending blood trickling dark across his chin. He swiped at it, trembling. "Ow."
"Okay. Okay, you're a vampire." She looked at the kittens, who had clambered to the back of the chair. They teetered there, perched like sparrows, their own fangs overly long and sharp-looking. "Are these yours?"
He straightened. "Yeth." The fangs gave him a lisp, and made him look grotesque rather than threatening.
"Why? Why would you do that to poor little kittens?" She could feel the same bubbling fury she'd felt when she'd found Marla, with her broken legs and burns. "What'd they ever do to you?"
"Well, the thing ith -"
"Go on, tell me! What else d'you do in your spare time, nibble on old ladies?"
"No! No, the kittenth are like my familiarth!"
"Witches. Witches have familiars. Vampires have coffins."
He shook his head, worked his jaw a couple of times, and the fangs snapped away. "It's because no one'll invite me in," he said plaintively. "I thought when you became a vampire you'd be irresistible to women. I'm not. I'm just me – but dead."
"So, people'll always take kittens in, then the kittens'll let me in." He gave her a embarrassed smile, blood still smudged on his chin. "I mean, it worked, right?"
Holly stared. The cats were nothing but hackles and teeth glaring down at him from the bookshelf, and he kept eyeing them nervously. He really was a very sorry sort of vampire, but it didn't change the fact that he'd been unspeakably cruel to the kittens, and had made some half-baked attempt to eat her.
"Now, come to me, woman," he said, trying for imperious but sounding peevish. "You are mine!"
"No," she said. "And, in fact, I didn't invite you in."
"No, wait! Don't! Just – just give me a nibble, go on! I can't even get the hypnosis thing right!"
"Ew, no. And it's called glamouring." She pointed at the door. "You are not welcome in this house. Not now, not ever. Out." There was a roar of doors slamming open, a scream of wind that toppled the kittens onto the seat of the chair and spun newspapers to the floor, and then the vampire was gone. Holly looked up at the cats, then walked to the back door. They followed her, still wary of the kittens that trailed behind them. She stopped in the doorway, and looked at the vampire sitting on the path, inspecting the gravel rash on his hands.
He looked up at her. "Well, that was completely uncalled for. I guess I'll take my kittens and go, then."
She looked at the little fluffballs, crowding around her legs, peering out at him with those luminous yellow eyes. "No," she said. "I think I'll keep hold of them. In fact, I think they may be a little hungry." She pointed at him with a blue-painted nail. "Apple, show him what we do to intruders."
"What? No, I am -"
"Vampire, I know." Holly watched the big tomcat prowling towards the creature on the path, and made a quick little beckoning motion. A complicated net of roots rose out of the garden and snaked eagerly towards him, the movement disturbing bones that gleamed pale in the moonlight.
"What are you doing? What – what is this?" His voice rose in a scream as the three cats slouched towards him, growing with every step, until they stood as tall as wolves, heads low and movement easy with menace. He tried to scramble to his feet and the plants pulled him back down almost playfully. The kittens were nipping at his trapped hands, and he managed a shriek before the roots slammed his mouth shut.
Holly leaned against the door, meeting his terrified eyes with her own. "Tut, tut," she said. "Going around preying on poor, defenceless little cat ladies." She smiled, and it was at once beautiful and far, far more terrifying than the vampire's grimace had been. "Now, remember today's lesson – familiars are for witches."
He tried to scream against the roots holding his mouth closed, and she turned back inside to put the kettle on, humming a quiet, joyful little tune. She'd need to remember to cancel the RSPCA. Vampire kitties! Angie wouldn't approve, of course, but Mum would love them.

For pretty much the entire NFL season, three AFC teams have been competing for two first-round byes: the Patriots, the Bengals and the Broncos.
The Patriots (11-2) are in the driver's seat for home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, while the Bengals and Broncos are both 10-3, coming off a loss and have major issues at quarterback.
Even more interesting? The Broncos host the Bengals on Monday Night Football on Dec. 28. AJ McCarron, barring injury, will be starting for the Bengals in that game, but the quarterback for the Broncos, well, that's to be determined.
Will Brock Osweiler get the start, or will Peyton Manning?
"I think what Gary Kubiak is thinking is exactly what he should be thinking: Which quarterback gives me the best chance to beat Pittsburgh this week?" SI and TheMMQB.com writer Peter King said on CBS Sports Radio's Tiki and Tierney. "I think on the surface, everybody who would be listening to this would say, 'Well, of course it's Osweiler.' And I think it almost certainly is Osweiler. But you also have to ask yourself this question: Brock Osweiler in the last two games has had the ball 26 times for 26 different drives. He's led one touchdown drive. The Denver Broncos have scored zero points in the second half of the last two games. They lost to Oakland at home. They have not been, with the exception of the New England game, a very good team on offense since Brock Osweiler took over. They haven't turned it over, so he's not making the huge mistake – and look, they weren't great with Manning, either. All I'm saying is that I believe Kubiak is just keeping his options open. And if he sees from Peyton Manning in the next week or so at practice that he's throwing the ball either better or significantly better than he threw the ball against Kansas City a month ago, I think he's going to let him play again. But again, that is a very big if."
The Bengals, meanwhile, will need to stay afloat without Dalton, who was lost to a fractured thumb in Sunday's 33-20 loss to Pittsburgh.
"I think the most important thing for McCarron is that the Bengals have the 49ers and the Ravens on their schedule in the last three weeks," King said. "AJ McCarron has to win those two games. He has to. Nobody is expecting him to win against Denver. That's probably unrealistic. But he's got to win the other two games. He's got to go out to Santa Clara this weekend and win that game. And I think Hue Jackson is going to tell his team and tell his offense and his message is going to be, 'Hey, AJ McCarron won two national championships. He's played on a gigantic stage. He's won 36 football games at Alabama.' And so I think the Bengals are going to approach this like, 'We're going to probably take some of the deep throws out of the offense (and some other throws as well).'
"But I do think they're going to be able to do enough and their defense is good enough that they ought to be able to win at San Francisco, and they ought to be able to beat Baltimore in Week 17," King continued. "And then it's just a matter of hope. I think it's realistic to expect that Dalton could return a month from tomorrow when the divisional playoff game would start. And hey, if they get home field, that's the first game he'd have to play."

The last stop on our extended tour of church musical genres takes us to contemporary gospel music. Our guides are the Rev. J. Bass, minister of music for both Dickinson's New Vision Church and New Directions M.B.C., and William Stinson, who sings with the local group Vernon J & Greater.
Popular music of this kind has never been easier to find. Just look on iTunes, Pandora and last.fm. Its hits are annually nominated for both Grammy and Dove awards. And, of course, it is a Sunday staple at many local churches.
"As a musician, songwriter, singer and choir director, I consider myself to perform a mix that lies between traditional and contemporary," Bass said. "As I continue to attend gospel music conferences, what I have realized is that even those we now consider traditional were considered contemporary by their own generation."
As church music goes, contemporary gospel may lie in the midrange of difficulty. Bass said that being able to read musical notation, even to sight read it, was very helpful, but that a number of celebrated performers had instead played by ear alone.
"While singing from a hymnal can be soul stirring, the free-flowing expressions of being able to sing contemporary gospel music can have a great impact," he said. "You aren't limited to the paper. Most choir directors use the opportunity to season the contemporary music as he/she sees fit."
That improvisational aspect can transform a standard arrangement into something more like jazz and less like classical choral music.
Stinson said that when an entire church adopts it, the experience can be transformational. It also tends to turn public performances into instant churchwide singalongs.
"In the moment, everything just looks brighter," he said. "The songs mean things to people. It's personal and they tend to sing along. It can't be explained, but it can bring you through. The feeling of the Holy Spirit is amazing, refreshing. It overcomes you."
Stinson said most musicians he knows are more likely to play this form by ear than to conduct a note-for-note correspondence from sheet music.
As for the origins of this popular genre, there is no consensus on any specific source.
"I don't know that we can put a time stamp or even label a founder," Bass said. "The message is the same, but there are always very gifted, talented, anointed songwriters and gospel artists who are finding new innovative ways to express the timeless message of Jesus Christ's coming, burial, resurrection, ascension and soon-to-come return."
By the way, if I missed a musical form in this series that your church enjoys, please let me know.

Funeral Directors Near Me
Burial times
It is often difficult to organise a funeral when you are in the middle of stress and a lot of sadness over the loss of a loved one. It is, therefore, wise to hire the services of a funeral director near me to deal with the logistics of the funeral as the family comes to terms that they won't see a loved one anymore.
The good news is that there are funeral directors near you. You do not have to approach a nationwide company when in need of the services of a funeral director- you just need to head straight to a local company and request them to provide you with a funeral director.
Where to look
There are potent reasons why you should work with a funeral director from your local area. To begin with, a funeral is an intimate family affair; therefore, you need a person who can as closely as possible relate to your grief. He ought to exude sympathy- naturally. That is only possible if the funeral director comes from a local company, meaning that he or she might have known the deceased personally, or knows at least one member of the bereaved family.
Local is best
Above that, local companies are usually focused on the local community, and that means they can deliver a truly personal service suitable to the bereaved family's needs. For example, a local funeral director knows the importance of flowers in the celebration of the deceased person's life. Some funeral directors, especially from nationwide companies, often use the in lieu of flowers' phrase as a polite and convenient way to meet some requests for funeral contributions to avoid dealing with flowers. They frown upon handling and ferrying flowers and regard it as a hassle and a great inconvenience. However, if you hire a funeral director from a local company, then they most likely appreciate the central place of flowers in the mourning process and would not want to slight it.
If you ever ask yourself 'are there funeral directors near me,' the answer is positive. Book a funeral director from a local company to find a truly personable service.

Our Library Profile series follows the work of our incredible library staff around the world. Today, we're catching up with Kristine Upesleja, Manager of Textiles & Materials at FIDM in Los Angeles.
MCX: How did you become interested in materials?
Kristine Upesleja: My interest for materials and surfaces originates from my former work as a costume designer for opera and theater in Europe. I've always been fascinated by the many possibilities and applications in the design world. Over the years, I learned about changes in the industry and the impact that new, innovative materials have on the space that surrounds us.
MCX: How did the materials library at FIDM come to be?
KU: I had not heard of Material ConneXion until an article about their library caught my attention. I went to New York to see it up close. The moment I walked in I knew: FIDM needs to have this!
After my return to Los Angeles, I met with the President of FIDM, Tonian Hohberg. She was delighted to hear about this opportunity for FIDM students. Six months later, we installed the first 100 tableaux in a newly created Textiles & Design Research Room at our Los Angeles campus.
MCX: Why do you believe it is valuable to teach your students about materials?
KU: Materials surround us. We live and have always lived in a material world. Everything we see and hold takes shape, thanks to materials. A new generation of materials changes the design world! Scientist/inventors have grown materials from bacteria and tea, or we print our clothes on a 3-D printer. We embed conductive yarns into a shirt, or we make clothing out of coffee grounds and milk.
This is what the new generation of designers needs to know:
A completely new approach and expertise is required. Job descriptions such as Materials Alchemist, Synthetic Biologist or Design Futurist are here and necessary to move forward. Designers are exploring the findings of electronics, software and bioengineering. Collaborations with other industries are inevitable. I'd like all students to know we're enjoying a major materials revolution, which offers opportunities now, in the future and in global markets.
MCX: Describe your job in 3 sentences or less.
KU: My daily work life consists of being on a great 'hunt' for the latest information on cutting edge developments in the industry. I'm a researcher, educator and connector. I established the innovative materials collection at FIDM, and once a year I curate an innovative materials conference/exhibit that also travels to all four FIDM campus locations.
MCX: What is your favorite material and why?
KU: Right now, I'm fascinated by a material called 'Rumen Leather' that I found in the Material ConneXion library. It was created by designer Mandy den Elzen, who also transforms algae fibers into containers and vases. Den Elzen's main objective is the material itself, its specific characteristics and how its natural form is perfectly integrated with its function. Another intriguing material is the stainless steel fabric by ThermalTech. It collects sun energy to keep you warm and can be used as inner lining for outerwear. Both materials can be found in the MCX database.
MCX: What are you most excited about for 2016 in the world of materials and the MCX library at FIDM?
KU: The concept of reusing and repurposing waste materials to design products is completely fascinating. I am curious to follow the developments in 3-D printing and how to apply it to textiles. The possible dream come true of printing a seamless garment from natural fibers is really exciting.
The evolution of conductive yarns that are embedded into garments is compelling to watch. So many possibilities lie ahead of us to make life easier!
The MCX Library at FIDM is a tremendous asset to our college. It adds enormous value to the learning processes of our students who happen to have access to the world's biggest materials library. It opens new realms, makes them think outside the box and challenges their thinking. I am always excited to witness FIDM student assignments that revolve around the MCX resources.

Hi all,
I'm new to this group, just had a stillbirth at 26 weeks about two weeks ago. I had kind of decided to let myself rest and grieve as needed for these two weeks, but then head back to work next week. I realize that the grief process will be a long haul, but what no one has really talked to me about is the physical recovery. I can't separate what are physical symptoms as opposed to emotional, especially the crazy amount of fatigue I'm feeling. I had a natural and uncomplicated birth, btw.
How long did it take for you to physically recover? Is it crazy for me to go back to work next week? Will I just exhaust myself? My boss and colleagues are all very supportive and will honor whatever I want to do. I just can't get a feel for what I can handle and thought it'd be helpful to hear other people's experiences.

Working memory refers to our ability to hold and manipulate information in our minds over short periods of time (Gathercole & Alloway, 2007). Working memory is critical in an academic setting where students must engage in tasks that involve multiple steps, coming up with intermediate solutions, and then remembering those solutions so that they may apply them as they proceed through the task (Peng & Fuchs, 2016). Students with deficiencies in their ability to utilize working memory have difficulty engaging in these multi-step processes, as they lack the ability to follow lengthy instructions, and they have a tendency to "lose their place" in an activity (Gathercole & Alloway, 2007). One such multi-step task is the typical academic process of writing a research paper.
Writing a research paper requires students to follow a complex sequence of steps in order to come up with an acceptable final product. Students must choose a topic, gather appropriate and relevant resources, convert information for said resources into their own language while citing where they acquired the information, identify main ideas associated with their topic, support the main ideas of their topic with relevant information gathered, and effectively introduce and summarize the information that is presented in the paper. Researching and presenting information is a complex task, even for adults of have a fully developed working memory. We can then imagine how difficult a task like this must be for students who have yet to reach the peak of their working memory, or have special needs in the area. "Approximately 70% of children with learning difficulties in reading obtain very low scores on tests of working memory…" (Gathercole & Alloway, 2007).
There are some things that educators can do to help students who possess a below average working memory. Namely, adjusting assignments to reduce the load put on a student's working memory. A few examples of how this can be done are breaking down larger task in to small chunks, reducing the amount of material to be stored, and utilizing external devices that can act as memory aids for students (Gathercole & Alloway, 2007). I would like to present the web based tool, Popplet, as a means to serve students with a deficiency in working memory by utilizing it to implement some of the these suggestions. You can see below an example of a Popplet template that I have created in order to help students stay organized when collecting data to write a research paper.
Looking at the Popplet template as a whole might seem a little daunting, but if you start zooming in on specific sections, you can see how by using Popplet to organize your research, you can intuitively break down the larger task of researching into smaller individual processes such as citing resources, and taking notes. This should help students manage working memory by allowing them to focus on one aspect of research. Yet if they forget what they are doing, they can zoom out and follow the map to see where they are at in the process, and what can come next.
Using Popplet in this way will also reduce the amount of material a student needs to keep in his or her working memory at any given time. Take for example the process of taking a note from a specific resource. A student can first write down the name of their resource, and then link to that resource in the citation box. This will prevent the student from having to hunt down the resource again in the future. Next, the student will start copying and pasting information in the "Notes" section of the Popplet. Now, the student can visually see where all of the his or her notes came from. Lastly, the student can then re-write the copy and pasted information in his or her own words, without having to keep any of that information in their minds, and without having to switch back and forth between multiple tabs or pages on their device.
Finally, Popplet will allow students to organize their information visually, in order to support their understanding of the topic. I can use Popplet as a mapping tool in order to connect relevant information to support the main ideas of my research. I can do this quickly, without having to memorize or re-write any information. Once a connection has been made, a student simply needs to follow the map in order to remind themselves of what they were thinking earlier when making those connections.
Popplet is a seemingly simple tool on the surface, and is relatively easy to work with. However, when it comes to helping students (particularly students with low working memory) organize their thinking, it can be a powerful tool in helping to reduce the amount of information and processing that must been done within the mind.
Here is a quick tutorial of how to use Popplet has a support for students when researching:

*VILLA DEL SOL (Stamile,P.) TET 7467 {Bill Norris X [Olympic Showcase x (Betty Warren Woods x Floyd Cove)]} 30 EERe. no fr. emo. Ev. 5 ½ x 3 x 2. 4 way branching. 20-25 buds. I have always been a big fan of the daylily BILL NORRIS. I have used it extensively both ways in my crossing to go to the next generation and improve upon this wonderful cultivar. VILLA DEL SOL was the first major improvement upon BILL NORRIS in getting deeper ruffling, a larger flower and a fuller form all without loosing the wonderful color of the pod parent. Basically VILLA DEL
SOL is a more refined BILL NORRIS with deep looping ruffling, heavy sculpting, some embossing but with the same glowing gold color I really love. An exciting cultivar that brings the bright golds to a new level. Fertile both ways $100.00
