In 1743, the son of Major John Boone planted live oak trees, arranging them in two evenly spaced rows. This spectacular approach to his home symbolizes southern heritage and will take root in your memory for many years to come. It would take two centuries for the massive, moss-draped branches to meet overhead, forming today's natural corridor and a scene that NBC Daytime television says is "a must see stop on any trip to Charleston, S.C."

'Curious' Hack Jailbreaks Windows RT
Jan 9, 2013 8:37 AM PT
A security researcher has hacked Windows RT to allow it to run desktop applications by bypassing the OS's security systems. The jailbreaking isn't dangerous to users' systems, he insists.
"It cannot at this point be exploited without the user actually wanting it, so it's not dangerous," researcher C.L. Roker told TechNewsWorld.
The flaw that permitted Roker to sidestep security protections on Microsoft's Surface tablet and run Windows desktop applications on it is a vulnerability, he added.
Following Roker's posting of his discovery of the RT flaw on Sunday, Microsoft confirmed the defect in the operating system and discounted its threat to RT users.
"The scenario outlined is not a security vulnerability and does not pose a threat to Windows RT users," it said in a statement. "The mechanism described is not something the average user could, or reasonably would, leverage as it requires local access to a system, local administration rights and a debugger in order to work."
Microsoft did not respond to our request for further details.
Hacker Praised
In an unusual twist, Microsoft praised the researcher for finding the flaw in RT. "We applaud the ingenuity of the folks who worked this out and the hard work they did to document it," it stated.
It suggested, however, that the window on this flaw will be closing shortly. "We'll not guarantee these approaches will be there in future releases," it observed.
The vulnerability in RT resides in its kernel, Roker explained in his "On the Surface of Security" blog.
RT's code, which is designed to run with ARM processors, is based on Windows 8 desktop code, which is designed to work with Intel processors. The kernel flaw exists in Windows and was copied into RT when the desktop OS's code was ported to the OS for Microsoft's tablet.
Signature Requirements Altered
Whether a program will run in RT depends on a digital signature. The minimum requirements for a program's signature are controlled within the kernel and protected by one of Windows 8's strongest new security additions: UEFI Secure Boot.
"This is not a user setting, but a hard-coded global value in the kernel itself," Roker explained. "It cannot be changed permanently on devices with UEFI's Secure Boot enabled."
However, Roker discovered that the minimum signature requirements for a program could be altered in memory, using a debugging tool, during an active session.
On a machine with an Intel processor, the minimum value for a signature is "0," which means any program can run on the computer. With an RT machine, it's "8," which limits applications largely to those in Microsoft's app store.
'Cool' Hack
By changing the minimum signature requirements for RT, Roker found he could run 32-bit Windows desktop applications on his Surface tablet.
That's a good thing, he argued, and Microsoft should consider making it a feature of Surface.
"The decision to ban traditional desktop applications was not a technical one, but a bad marketing decision," Roker said. "Windows RT needs the Win32 ecosystem to strengthen its position as a productivity tool. There are enough 'consumption' tablets already."
The chances of Roker's findings being exploited by a hacker are extremely remote, Eset researcher Aryeh Goretsky told TechNewsWorld. "This is more of a curiosity than anything else. I would file it under 'cool hack.'"
Unlike the typical jailbreaking or rooting of a mobile device, Roker's exploit lacks persistence, Goretsky added. "You have to re-inject it after each time you power up or reboot the device," he observed.
Tinkering's Downside
While running Windows desktop apps on Surface may be an attractive idea to some, implementing Roker's hack could have negative consequences, according to Vizay Kotikalapudi, senior manager with Symantec's Enterprise Mobility Group.
"Once you jailbreak a device, the stability of a device is no longer guaranteed," he told TechNewsWorld. "You can have memory leaks, applications crashing all the time and networks not working correctly."
Moreover, installed apps may stop working, he added. "One of the basic things that most apps do is check to see if a device is jailbroken or rooted and if it is, those apps won't run."
As a Surface owner, Directions On Microsoft Windows Analyst Michael Cherry is puzzled by those who'd want to jailbreak the tablet.
"If you want to buy a tablet with an ARM processor and use it for some other operating system or some other purpose, there are probably better things to buy than a Windows RT device," he told TechNewsWorld.
In addition, running applications designed for the desktop on Surface would interfere with one of his primary reasons for buying the tablet he noted.
"I wanted to have a tablet with a Windows operating system that offered a long battery life," he explained. "I'm getting about 10 hours of battery life between charges. The reason that is, is I'm running the new Windows 8 store apps. If I were to start loading on a bunch of legacy apps, I'd probably be starting up a whole lot of processes and services that would chew up my battery life."

If you've been following MMMB this summer, you know that I have adopted a new mantra for the year. Every time I start to feel overwhelmed with the standards that my kindergarten students need to achieve by the end of the year, I simply remind myself to:
For the second time in 2 years, I have a little boy entering kindergarten and it is REALLY hitting home with me that, as smart as he is, the structure of school and learning is going to be an overwhelming new world for him. He is the sweetest little thing (see him below, so cooperatively demonstrating a classroom management technique I use at the beginning of the year-the "monkey face") but wants to please and do things the "right" way. Although he may not represent the majority of 5 year olds, I know he is like many, and my question is how do we make sure that children with this type of personality feel successful and happy in their new world?

To say my son and Jo got along well would be an understatement. He was not ready to be left without mummy, but as soon as they discovered they both enjoyed tickles and books and songs, they were fast friends. My 2 year old loves to talk and ride around on his little motorbike and Jo kept right up with him. I could hear giggles and squeals of laughter when I was in the next room. We highly recommend Jo and would absolutely love to have her sit for us again. He is still talking about her the next day!
Jo is absolutely brilliant. She arrived fully prepared with games and loads of enthusiasm to entertain my two primary aged kids, was really responsive to their likes and dislikes and what they enjoyed doing, and was very caring towards them. She comforted them when they were upset and missing me, and kept me fully informed about how they had been. She's really fun, proactive, very polite and reliable, and is just brilliant!
I have booked Michelle several times now and always found her to be professional and friendly. She is always punctual and a good communicator and gets on very well with my daughter, Amira, aged 8. Amira looks forward to seeing her every time and enjoys playing with Michelle before bedtime. I have every confidence in booking Michelle and would thoroughly recommend her as a sitter.

We Join Groups in FTC Privacy Complaints Against Facebook and Google's YouTube
Privacy protection isn't just about Facebook. On Friday, U.S. PIRG joined a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission that Facebook is in violation of a previous 2011 privacy order. Today, we also joined one alleging that Google's YouTube collects information about kids in violation of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). And we haven't forgotten about the Equifax debacle.
Facebook's collection and sharing of information without user consent, of course, is the subject of several Congressional hearings this week featuring its founder Mark Zuckerberg. A key question is whether Facebook's sharing, which may have led to vast political implications, was in violation of a 2011 FTC privacy order, or consent decree. Law professor David Vladeck, who in 2011 was director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection and negotiated the decree, told The Atlantic this week that "I predict that if the FTC concludes that Facebook violated the consent decree, there will be a heavy civil penalty that could well be in the amount of $1 billion or more."
Our joint Facebook complaint alleges several violations of the order but focuses on one in particular. U.S. PIRG joined the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) and other groups (complaint) claiming that Facebook's use of facial recognition techniques without consent violates the order. This particular practice may also violate a ground-breaking PIRG-backed Illinois biometric information law.
The Facebook complaint argues the following:
"Facebook never obtained "affirmative express consent" for its deployment of facial recognition, as required by Part II of the 2011 Consent Order. The Commission's analysis of the Order makes clear that Facebook must "give its users a clear and prominent notice and obtain their affirmative express consent before sharing their previously-collected information with third parties in any way that materially exceeds the restrictions imposed by their privacy settings. Since 2010, Facebook deployed extensive facial recognition practices on an opt-out basis without providing clear and conspicuous notice, without obtaining users' express affirmative consent, and without effectively guiding users on how to opt-out of the default Tag Suggestions setting.
The complaint goes on to use a series of screen shots (read from left to right) to show how many layers a consumer must drill down even to exercise her facial recognition "choices." You must find "Privacy Shortcuts," then "Settings," then "Facial Recognition," then turn it off.
The complaint also notes that the rollout of facial recognition technologies raises both privacy and civil liberties concerns. Excerpt from the complaint:
"Facial recognition technology can be done covertly, even remotely, and on a mass scale. There is little that individuals can do to prevent collection of one's image. Participation in society involves exposing one's face. Ubiquitous and near effortless identification eliminates individuals' ability to control their identities and poses a special risk to the First Amendment rights of free association and free expression, particularly to those who engage in lawful protests. [...] As large institutions begin using facial recognition on the public, it normalizes a privacy-invasive technology that lacks meaningful safeguards. The lack of regulation of facial recognition and other biometric surveillance methods means the data collected and used now for one purpose can easily be utilized for purposes not even imagined yet and without the consent from the targets of the technology."
But privacy isn't all about Facebook. Today, we also joined the Center for Digital Democracy's FTC filing (complaint) alleging that Google's YouTube collects information about kids in violation of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Leading children's protection, consumer and privacy groups including Consumers Union and the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood are also on the complaint.
"[The groups allege that] Google, which owns YouTube, makes substantial profits collecting many types of personal information on kids on YouTube, including geolocation, unique device identifiers, mobile telephone numbers, and persistent identifiers used to recognize a user over time and across different websites or online services. Google collects this information without first providing direct notice to parents and obtaining their consent, and Google uses it to target advertisements to kids across the internet, including across devices. COPPA bars the operator of a website directed to children, or that has knowledge of children using it, from collecting and using such information without obtaining parental consent."
Of course, it remains to be seen what Congress and the FTC or Facebook and Google will do with these privacy complaints. Congress, for one, is now doing favors for Equifax (and all firms that commit privacy breaches) after an initial period of bluster, high dudgeon and drama last fall. We will be encouraging the FTC to take action on our privacy complaints, but the best hope for privacy protection in the U.S. comes from Europe. Mark Zuckerberg has indicated he will testify that Facebook will comply worldwide with the new European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is explained by Natasha Singer in the New York Times today. Our London-based colleague Anna Fielder of Privacy International told Singer that "she thought the new law would require the social network to change certain advertising and other settings to make privacy, and not sharing, the default."
Of course, the GDPR is only the new European law, not a worldwide rule. It should form the basis of a new U.S. privacy law for all data collectors, not simply another Facebook promise that might change. Equifax, Facebook and Google are not the only ones taking advantage of American consumers.

Never again do you need to invest overabundance energy or cash with cleans that are essentially worthy. You get the opportunity to pick in vogue cleans that are in high request since they look incredible and feel better. Is it accurate to say that you are taking advantage of your style scours? Actually not every single therapeutic expert look comparable to they could. Frayed sews, free strings, and stains expostulate the estimation of your cleans, and consequently, brings down progressively close to home sort qualities. You need to feel and look extraordinary, and with the correct style scours, you can have everything. Lets be honest, you most likely experience a great deal of cleans. That is a piece of being in the restorative business. You acknowledge the reality, however that does not mean you need to invest more energy or cash than should be expected getting style scours to accommodate your way of life and decisions.
Ask style admirers who their most loved architect is and you are certain to see one name springing up on numerous occasions: Tom Ford … Tom Ford … Tom Ford! To comprehend the reason Ford is such a style symbol and the effect this plays in the eyewear and whole style industry, it is helpful to initially see Tom Fords way to being credited as being a standout amongst the most compelling originators of the most recent decade. Portages way to mold legend started when he moved to the New York as a youngster, and enlisted at the NYU in Art History. In 1986 Ford began his profession with well known American planner Cathy Hardwick as a piece of her imaginative staff; after two years, he turned into the Design Director for Perry Ellis. Portage did not remain at Perry Ellis extremely well before joining Gucci in 1990 as the Womens Wear Designer and in an extraordinary measure of time Tom Ford climbed the stepping stool at Gucci and was delegated Gucci Creative Director in 1994.

How does South Africa deal with public art from its years of colonialism and apartheid? How do new monuments address fraught histories and commemorate heroes of the struggle? Across South Africa, statues commemorating figures such as Cecil Rhodes have provoked heated protests, while new works commemorating icons of the liberation struggle have also sometimes proved contentious. In this lively volume, Kim Miller, Brenda Schmahmann, and an international group of contributors examine statues and memorials as well as performance, billboards, and other temporal modes of communication, considering the implications of not only the exposure but also erasure of events and icons from the public domain. Revealing how public visual expressions articulate histories and memories, they explore how such works may serve as a forum in which tensions surrounding race, gender, identity, or nationhood play out.
Kim Miller is Associate Professor and holds the Jane Oxford Keiter Professorship of women's and gender studies and art history at Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts. Miller's scholarship, which examines the relationship between visual culture, gender, and power in African arts, includes her forthcoming book, How Did They Dare? Women's Activism and the Work of Memory in South African Commemorative Art.
Brenda Schmahmann is Professor and the South African Research Chair in South African Art and Visual Culture at the University of Johannesburg. She has written, edited, or coedited a number of volumes on South African art, the most recent of which are Picturing Change: Curating Visual Culture at Post-Apartheid Universities and The Keiskamma Art Project: Restoring Hope and Livelihoods.
"This book alerts us to the pitfalls and potentials of public art in a stimulating and thought-provoking manner, and is highly recommended for specialist readers as well as a broader audience."

The case involves power, privilege, wealth, social status and race. A powerful European against a female African housekeeper working to earn a living in New York City.
[Black Star News Editorial]
Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has been accused of acting as a sexual predator in an attempted rape of an African female immigrant in a New York City hotel.
The case involves power, privilege, wealth, social status and race. A powerful European against a female African housekeeper working to earn a living in New York City. The hotel suite where the alleged crime is said to have occurred costs $3,000 per night--this is probably more than what the African maid makes in an entire month.
The woman's name has not been disclosed by the New York police. She is described as a 32-year old immigrant from Africa. Strauss-Kahn has been accused by several women in the past of sexual improprieties.
The story would sound almost incredible --that the chief of the IMF would launch such a perverted attack in a New York hotel-- were it not for the fact that this isn't the first time the Frenchman, who was regarded as the leading contender to defeat Nicolas Sarkozy in next year's presidential election, has been accused of a vicious attack against a woman.
Strauss-Kahn is married. Yet according to media accounts, including in The New York Times, his affairs was an "open secret."
Yet, in one case also reported by the newspaper, Strauss-Kahn was accused by a French writer of trying to rape her after she had gone to interview him about a book. The woman, in France, who did not file charges --but now in light of the New York incident says she may-- claimed she fought off Strauss-Kahn from the floor as he tried to take off her jeans and bra.
In the New York City incident last Saturday, the Frenchman is reported to have emerged from the bathroom of his hotel room naked and brazenly attacked the African, a maid who had come to clean his room and was unaware anyone else was in the room.
Strauss-Kahn is said to have locked the door of the hotel suite and then dragged the African woman to the bedroom in the alleged crazed attack. The woman reportedly fought off the attack but was then dragged by Strauss-Kahn into the bathroom and forced her to perform oral sex.
The woman reported the attack immediately, which allowed the New York Police to pluck the Frenchman out of a plane which was about to depart for Paris. In his reported haste to flee, Strauss-Kahn is said to have left his cell phone at the scene of the alleged crime.
The police are obtaining DNA evidence from Strauss-Kahn. Things don't look good for the Frenchman, Bwana Strauss-Kahn.

How do I sign up for the latest BFI IMAX news?
For the latest news and ticket information sign up to ODEON emails and tick 'Exclusive offers and film news'.
Is the cinema available for corporate hire?
Yes, BFI IMAX is available for corporate hire as part of the ODEON contract. Find out more about BFI IMAX .
What is the relationship between the BFI and ODEON?
ODEON – the largest cinema group in Europe and the BFI have a concession agreement for ODEON to operate the BFI IMAX at London Waterloo.
Why did the BFI put the running of BFI IMAX out to tender?
The BFI has a very broad range of management responsibilities, increased by taking on some of the UK Film Council responsibilities and, in line with many other organisations, less money to carry them out with. We are therefore seeking to identify areas where an effective commercial partnership can make it more cost efficient.
The income from the BFI IMAX is a significant sum of money and contributes directly to the running of the charity. Securing this income and so reducing its risk, when public funding is reducing, is a further important driver.
How did the BFI decide that ODEON was the best partner for this concession agreement?
The BFI has carefully selected ODEON, following a rigorous tender process, as its new partner in order to boost its commercial offerings and safeguard its income through a guaranteed revenue stream. The quality of the BFI IMAX operation is currently very good, but there are economies of scale that ODEON has that the BFI cannot match – for example: the marketing reach and capital funding capability, as well as economies of scale on distribution costs and costs of concession.
Why has ODEON partnered with BFI IMAX?
ODEON is passionate about film and encouraging the development of the UK film industry, they are therefore delighted to be partnered with the BFI and supporting its worthwhile charitable causes. In addition, ODEON is very excited to be able to offer both ODEON and BFI IMAX guests the very best service and selection of films on the UK's biggest screen.
How does ODEON support the work the BFI does?
The concession agreement safeguards the BFI's income through guaranteed revenue, helping to sustain the BFI's valuable work across the UK. In addition, ODEON is supporting key BFI initiatives and seasons through its channels.
Do BFI and ODEON have opposing ethoses? Has the BFI compromised its independence with this arrangement?
While the two organisations are of course different in many ways, they are two of the biggest and longest established film brands. Both organisations place the audience at the heart of what they do and this partnership will support initiatives to actually enhance the customer experience. Given ODEON's reach across the UK, the partnership is also important in helping the BFI reach a wider audience in all regions of the UK – an important priority in the BFI's new Future Plan for Film.
How long is the partnership with ODEON?
The new concession agreement is began on 19 July 2012, with a fixed term contract of 5 years with an optional termination break at the end of year 3. During this period the performance of the cinema will be regularly reviewed against agreed criteria to ensure that the quality of the cinema operation is maintained.
What changes have occurred to the BFI IMAX under ODEON management?
The cinema continues to be called the BFI IMAX, remain BFI IMAX branded throughout and continues to offer film fanatics the biggest cinema experience in London.
The retail and bar offer has been updated to include a Costa coffee shop and Yog frozen probiotic yoghurt bar.
The cinema benefits from being added to the ODEON website and booking system and guests can access film information via the iPhone App.
Will the BFI have any involvement in how the cinema is run?
The contract is for a concession operation. This means that the BFI have a significant say in how the cinema is run. Quality of visitor experience, especially quality of film projection and sound, is very important to the BFI and we have formed a partnership that can deliver a high quality operation not the cheapest operation.
Has BFI IMAX been converted to a digital IMAX format? Will there be any reduction in the size of the screen?
We installed a brand new screen in July. The new IMAX screen was made in Canada and once unpacked it took a team of ten strong riggers to haul the 800kg of perforated vinyl up the full 20 metres height of the screen under the supervision of an IMAX engineer.
It took 48 hours for all the creases to drop out of the new white screen. During this time a purpose-built spray rig was installed. A laser control ensured that the spray gun was always an exact distance away as it made its way up and down the screen, spraying a special silver paint that will ensure that light is reflected in straight lines off the screen. It is silver because a white screen would refract the light and this would cause ghosting of the image.
During these two weeks, an IMAX 3D Digital projector was also installed alongside the IMAX film-based 3D projector, so that the BFI IMAX now has the option to present all IMAX DMR films. The plan will be to show 70mm film prints whenever available until IMAX unveil their brand new laser-based projection system that can fully take the place of 15/70 film.

The Life and Times of Gordon Dudley Halbert - Miner, Surveyor, Assayer, Prospector and Salmon Spotter- by Pamela Bryant.
Photo Harry Crocker and Gordon Halbert by Reg Morrison.
Gordon Dudley Halbert nick named King of Kundip,Kangaroo Jack and Post Hole Jack was born on the 17th April 1903, to Rose Anne (nee Keogh, and formerly of Morac Station Mt Gambier, South Australia) and Albert Halbert (formerly of Kingower, Victoria). Albert and Rose lived in Coolgardie, in the 1890s, at a time of extreme growth brought about by the lust for gold. Rose was only the third female to venture there, probably at Alberts request. My grandmother Dulcie, Ivy, Irene and Albert (Jnr) were born there between 1896 and 1899. Later Albert (Snr), my Great Grandfather, nick named Baldy, took a road, sea and track journey to Kundip, leaving his young family at Albany for safe keeping. Whilst in Albany Rose had another girl Maud. Ivy and Irene had died before they left Coolgardie and Maud also died in the year of her birth (1902) in Albany.
The family joined Albert in Kundip in 1902, a trip at that time made possible, by a twice weekly coach service from Hopetoun. Gordon (the sixth born to Albert and Rose) was the first white child born in Kundip and was delivered by a first time mid-wife by the name of Mrs Love. Five more children joined the Halbert clan in that way, they were Ruby, Clara, James, William and Arthur.
Albert (Snr), an ex Victorian and former Jockey accused of pulling races!, knew a little about Alluvial Gold from his childhood days and together with a Mr. Pendergast (an Irishman who had also spent time in the east of Australia) found and claimed an alluvial reward acreage in the area. Others followed and were also successful.
Initially all goods, chattels and equipment were brought up by donkey teams (sometimes 40 to a wagon) or by horse driven teams from the sea port of Hopetoun, a 20 mile trip.
As is often the case the first building in Kundip was a pub! The second, a school, had to be lobbied for. Gordon was one of the first students at the age five sent to make up the numbers. A Mechanics Institute Hall, a bakehouse, several close to the wind butchers and other stores followed. Daws and Lansells were the better businesses and remained in business until the finish of the goldfields blush. Lansells operated the Bakehouse and the Post Office agency, the towns only means of following the ups and downs of the Great War and other matters of note. Bulletins were posted, as they were received, for the locals to view. The quartzite stone, used in the building floor and mined from a gully nearby is all that remains of the
Married mens houses at Kundip, about 40 of them, were built of gimlet, hessian, galvanized iron and kerosene tins. Single men ingeniously used anything they could lay their hands on.
Eventually a railroad was built from Hopetoun to Kundip (and on to Ravensthorpe). Workers on this project were more often than not, of Irish descent and the project seemed to take forever. Most of the work was done by hand with simple tools and wheelbarrows. When the first iron maiden sounded its approach to Kundip, it sent the locals children into a tizz, scarpering in fear and astonishment.
The first mine was established by roo (kangaroo) shooters, the Dallison brothers (Harry, Tom and Reg), from Albany. They also built the first rough store at Kundip.
Gordon use to accompany his dad Albert Baldy Halbert to the Alluvial Gold diggings as a child working eight to ten feet down and at 13 started mining at greater depths. In about 1916 he took a job at 6/- a day (a five and a half day week) in the assay office, at Kundip. Charlie Grant (Oral Historian Ronda Jamiesons great grandfather) was the Assayer and Gordon as his assistant learnt much about chemical analysis, ores, and precious metals. 12 months later, a job earning 10/- a day as a trucker at GEM Consolidated took his eye. This took him 300 feet below ground, driving trucks on rails
and required his attendance for 5, 8 hour days and 7 hours on Saturday. After a while Saturdays were cut back to 4 hours.
A year or so later he was off to Esperance to join the rail workers. He spent this time around Salmon Gums (60 miles from Esperance) in the pits shoveling, earning 4 pounds, 4 shillings for six days a week. Not happy with the Irish bosses and getting the sack for wearing an oilskin in a hailstorm! Gordon walked off carrying his gear and belongings for 20 miles to a new beginning.
Within 2 weeks he found himself a very good job with a survey team, a job he would return to many times over the coming years. This first stint however lasted 2 and half years covering the areas between
Gordon left the south west in the early 20s to do an Experting course in
In the years of the depression and pre World War II Gordon spent nearly all of his time working mines. He worked for Claude de Benales at Kundip for a while and entered into a partnership with Stuart Campbell and Mick Lalor taking out the rights for a reserve of Magnesite at Bandalup Creek, 16 and a half miles east of Ravensthorpe. Gordon assessed this Magnesite to be 98% pure (a fact later attested too, in the 1950s by the Americans who saw it as one of the purest Magnesite deposits in the world and by Canterford in 1985 who saw it as the best of five deposits found in
Immediately after the war The West Australian Government seconded him to search for, survey and peg, deposits of Blacksand from which Thorium is extracted. Thorium was used in the manufacture of the atom bomb. This assignment took 22 months and saw him in and out of mangrove swamps and many dangerous places from the top to the bottom of the Western Australian coast, surviving on whatever the land served up, usually mangrove crabs, fish, oysters, wild turkey and roo.
Perhaps having had enough time on and below terra firma for now, Gordon moved to the air and water, becoming an aerial salmon spotter for Hunts at Albany, and a sardine fisherman. It wasnt long however before a yearning for his genuine passion, mining, took hold again, and he returned to the Kundip area to work with Stuart Campbell and later Harry Crocker.
For 4 and a half years in the 1950s Gordon worked on a Graphite site at the Munglinup deposit. The atom bomb was being worked on in
In the period 1953-58 Munglinup produced 135.1 tons of Graphite.
Gordons personal metal of choice was always Gold and he found much of it over the years, keeping him hard at it until near his death in 1990. In 1968, in one week, he yielded 97 ounces from 30 pounds on his eight acres at Kundip! (Enough to scrape by on, Id say?) This precious metal saw him through thick and thin and kept him comfortable, it was all in the chase, and never the value of a find. He lived a simple prospectors life, though he must have been a rich man. He thought of gold as dependable and steady and he certainly knew where, and how to find it. Security of his stash was never high on his agenda however and it was always just lying around wrapped in rags. He was sometimes too trusting of others but was personally a much trusted and honest man.
The substances I have highlighted were indeed very important finds at the time of their discovery. Gordons expert opinion and knowledge of all below ground, and above ground in relation to surveying, was sort far and wide by Locals, Shires, Governments and larger Mining Authorities alike. He has 3 Oral History tapes in the Battye Library OH 337 and 2 numbered OH 575, perhaps this is because he was a person of significance in Western Australian Mining (predominantly the Ravensthorpe Shire) or perhaps because he witnessed and could relate stories of a bygone era. There are numerous anecdotes of his life and times printed in histories, papers and books. Many more need to be recounted, before the resources are lost.
I did hear it from his own mouth that he did find Uranium for the W.A Government, (whilst contracted to them on another search) many years, before its acknowledged discovery there. Problem was he said at that time no one knew what to do with it so it was interesting but of no interest! This information must still be out there somewhere hidden amongst Government Mining Records. Indeed there are writings of his brothers discovery of it also, but at a much later date. (Albert Jnr, Stump for short, found it for Norseman Gold Mines at Elverdton in 1954, using a Geiger counter. This deposit was thought uneconomic but the search did lead to the discovery of Copper ore which in turn led to the formation of Ravensthorpe Copper Mines. Stump is credited with erecting the headframe at the Mt Cattlin Mine.) Unfortunately I cannot remember when and where Gordon came upon the Uranium, as it was of no interest to me either, but I believed him to be talking about pre WW11 times.
Some of the mines Gordon worked on were: The Two Boys, Elverdton, Gem, Western Gem, Gem Restored, Omaha, Beryl, Harbour View, Last Chance and Jim Dun There would be many others but it is difficult for me to track down such details from Melbourne.
Gordon donated his traveling camp to the Ravensthorpe Historical Society and it is displayed in its Tourist Bureau and History display rooms at Ravensthorpe. It is imperative that this display is protected and maintained for posterity. There are also photos, transcripts and other items of memorabilia there.
A memorial stone and plaque was placed in the old Hopetoun Cemetery by friends Bill and Margaret Pike at the behest of Gordons step-daughter Heather.
There were several fantasies expounded as to where his ashes came to rest. They were strewn from a plane over Kundip; they are in his old mine etc. But the truth is that they lie at the foot of an old fig tree near the place of his birth; its a place that in Kundips heyday was referred to as Halberts Orchard. Bill and Marg. Pike along with other friends and acquaintances gathered there with Anglican priest Ross Jones to share the moment in memoriam and farewell a true and honest old timer. A man known and respected for the way he lived his life, as a prospector, his knowledge of the land and his humorous recants. Gordon loved to lean against a tree (according to Alice Rose) and I have no doubt that is indeed where he is. It is a fitting end to a wonderful life.

Anecdote by Cliff Belli and his sister Alice Rose as related
One day when Gordon and his brother, nick named stump were kids; they put a half plug of dynamite into their dads wood heap. You know just to see what would happen as kids do. Well, it blew the wood heap sky high and in fear of what their father may deem appropriate punishment they took off like scared rabbits and just kept going . and going and going . It is believed they were missing for three days. But their absence did not soften their dads heart and they still copped a whacking!
Anecdote by Dennis Walker
We (Our family) arrived in Ravensthorpe in May 1969 and although I was a builder by trade I had some experience at prospecting in various parts of Victoria New South Wales and South Australia. On arrival, Gordon along with The Wehr Brothers, Hans and Vanner (Werner) were some of the first people I sought to meet. (All Prospectors) Gordon at the time was working together with Harry Crocker their little operation at Kundip on "The Western Gem", I spent some time prospecting around the area and also used to drop in on Gordon and Harry , go underground with them and have a cuppa at crib time.
During the first three or four months I did a general reconnaissance all over the district and I discovered nickel just a few kilometers out of town which I decided to peg, I invited a friend from Victoria to join in with me as a junior partner to assist in the job of pegging and to share the cost of eight three hundred acre mineral claims.
The sale of the mining rights of this prospect enabled me to continue prospecting and after another three successful lots of pegging I decided to open a gold prospect at Kundip and although at the time the price of gold was a very low $38/40 an ounce I still went ahead and put down a couple of shafts, One of my sons, Garry helped, The first, a round shaft of about a meter in diameter was south of the old "Gem Restored", to a depth of about 20m, but only got traces of gold . The second shaft was an old pre war pit of about 4/5 meters, we sunk this to 20 meters, and this had a good showing of gold and enabled us to take a crushing to Norseman State Battery for treatment.
During all this time Gordon and Harry and Garry and myself used to see a lot of "How it was going" sort of thing at each other's workings.
Garry and I had an electric hoist, underground lights, electric ventilation fan and of course a good diesel air compressor, and as well I had a Kango Electric Hammer/drill, all of this really impressed Gordon and Harry.
They at the time depended on "Carbide lamps, Hand hammer and Tap" for drilling explosive holes and an old hand winch for hauling their ore.
Garry and I always called into see Gordon after work as his mate Harry run the Hopetoun to Ravensthorpe school bus and therefore left Gordon by himself from about 2.15 every afternoon to return the children to Hopetoun. In consequence of this we always dropped in to make sure Gordon was ok. One afternoon we wound our way from our shaft through the very thick Banksia track to Gordon's shaft, we noticed a lot of smoke issuing from the shaft, we thought that Gordon had just fired but couldn't see him around, Garry and I approached the shaft and Gordon then appeared with his carbide lamp and water bottle, he didn't clear shaft and as 4or 5 charges went off blasting rock and dust skywards which literally lifted Gordon clear off his old mallee ladder. (He had just put his gear on staging)
In amazement I said," Gee Gordon you cut those fuses a bit short didn't you", he replied, "You can't waste it, you know it pretty expensive now days!!
About this time we offered to show Gordon and Harry the "Modcons" of our mining, Garry and I parked our Inter four wheel drive alongside their shaft and dropped a power lead down from my Petter Diesel generator in the utility and then lowered the Kango Hammer drill, we drilled five or six four foot holes in the face in about one and a half hours, this was very impressive to Gordon and Harry. They sometimes only were able to drill one or at the most two each day.
Sometime later Gordon and Harry purchased a Kango Electric Hammer and petrol driven generator, both second-hand but still worked well.
We kept in touch and there would be more such items as these recorded in my daily diaries.

career fairs, networking & recruitment
Networking is connecting with people to expand your community and build relationships. It can be people you know and those you want to meet to gather information about careers and job opportunities.
Networking is connecting with people to expand your community and build relationships. Connect with people you know and those you want to meet to gather information about careers and job opportunities.
Meet new people, expand your network
Networking can happen in Career Exploration & Education workshops, industry panels and fairs, through Backpack to Briefcase, by talking to alumni, joining professional associations, and through social media.
You can also connect with family, friends, peers, professors, past or current employers, neighbours, etc. to see if they know someone working in the field that you are interested in exploring. Ask for referrals to conduct informational interviews.
Here are a few more tips on expanding your network:
- Create a profile on LinkedIn and use social media to connect with U of T alumni, companies and people in your industry
- Participate in mentorship programs
- Join and become active in your industry's professional associations (many have student membership rates). Attend the events, and consider volunteering.
- If you have graduated from U of T, participate in alumni events
Don't be shy about networking. If you are friendly and polite, most people are happy to help!
Use your network
Ask for referrals and update your network on your progress. Continue using social media and in-person networking even after you have secured a job. Maintain these connections. Fostering relationships throughout your career ensures you always have an available network to share information and leads.
Track your network
Every time you make a new contact, keep track of their contact information and record how you met them. If you connect with them on LinkedIn, you can record this information in their profile notes. Regularly update them on your progress and request new contacts.
Need help?
Sign up for our Making Connections and LinkedIn workshops or set up an appointment with a career educator to discuss your networking strategy.
Career fairs and panels
Career fairs and panels gather many employers into one space. By attending a fair, you can connect with representatives to learn more about their organizations and possible job openings.
Career fairs are larger events with 40 to over 100 employers present
Career panels invite up to four employers from a specific industry; after the event, you will have an opportunity to network with employers and alumni
Interested in attending a fair or panel?
See our calendar in the CLNx for dates and to register.
Prepare and practice
Before the fair or panel, study the list of companies that will be at the event and research the ones that interest you. The more information you have, the more informed you'll be when speaking with representatives.
Practice how you'll introduce yourself. Keep it brief, highlighting the skills you could bring to the organization, using examples from your experience. Come up with questions specifically for the companies you are interested in. You might want to ask for advice on entering the field, what type of education and experience you'll need, what kind of work experience, either part-time, summer or co-op work would be helpful, what the work culture is like, the range of career paths, and if they offer internship or entry-level positions.
During the event
Come dressed in appropriate attire. Bring several copies of your updated resumé. Introduce yourself, and talk about your interest in the organization. This will help the representatives get to know you.
Make the most of your one-on-one time with representatives. Pace yourself, so you're able to see all the organizations you researched. Be courteous. Learn about what the company is looking for. Ask for business cards. Enquire about followup procedures and hiring timelines.
Follow up
If an organization is hiring, follow up with an application tailored to the job. If you dropped off a resumé, follow up with a thank-you note to reintroduce yourself.
Need more help?
Take one of our job search workshops or set up an appointment with one of our career educators to discuss various job search strategies.
On-campus recruitment
On-campus recruitment is another way to find out about full-time employment upon graduation, summer and termed work-integrated learning opportunities. Since it's just for U of T students and recent grads, there's less competition!
Over 150 top employers from all over the world visit the campus to recruit the best candidates! These employers post jobs on the CLNx job board, host information sessions and interview on-campus throughout early September – November and January – March each year.
Get involved
To prepare, learn more about dates and posted positions, visit CLNx job board.

Zounds Hearing opened its first two Massachusetts stores last week at the South Shore Plaza in Braintree and the Liberty Tree Mall in Danvers.
A hearing aid store has never developed into a brand-name national chain. Sam Thomasson thinks his startup can be the first.
Thomasson is the founder of Mesa, Ariz.'s Zounds Hearing, which opened its first two Massachusetts stores last week at the South Shore Plaza in Braintree and the Liberty Tree Mall in Danvers.
An electrical engineer, Thomasson previously founded Acoustic Technologies in Mesa, which makes noise canceling equipment for cell phone manufacturers. His young daughter's struggle with profound hearing loss prompted him to study whether the technology could be used to build a better hearing aid.
"I was frustrated by the fact that I couldn't talk to her in a restaurant, and I couldn't talk to her in a car," Thomasson said.
Excessive background noise is a common complaint of hearing aid wearers, and deters many others from buying a device.
With backing from Signature Capital of Portland, Maine, Thomasson founded Zounds in 2006 and opened its first retail store in early 2007. The venture capital firm's founder, William Turner, backed the concept partly because he had bought a hearing aid and was disappointed in its performance, Thomasson said.
The Braintree and Danvers stores will bring Zounds' national expansion to 20 stores, with another 10 opening by early November. Zounds has hired John Costello, Home Depot's former top marketing and merchandising officer, as CEO to oversee the company's growth plan.
For a business model, Thomasson looks to LensCrafters, which showed how an eyeglass shop could grow from a handful of stores into a national chain before being acquired by Luxottica for $1.4 billion in 1995.
Almost all Zounds' stores are located in regional shopping malls, in a strategy to expose its products to family members of the hearing-impaired who may influence a purchase.
Zounds locations have a bright, high-tech look resembling a cell phone store. In the store's lobby, customers can sit at a table and watch a video contrasting Zounds' performance to a competitor's in blocking out background noise as an on-screen waiter reads a list of specials.
"People with hearing impairment almost never order the specials," Thomasson said. "They order off the menu."
The company holds 55 patents for noise-cancellation technology used to develop its three models of hearing aids. They succeed in filtering out 90 percent of unwanted noise, Thomasson said, and eliminate the feedback squeal that is an annoyance on many hearing aids.
Each of the three models sells for $1,449 – about half the cost of some competitors' models – and run on rechargeable batteries.
Thomasson said the company limits costs with mass manufacturing techniques as opposed to competitors' hand-assembled models. Wearers can set them to different modes such as quiet, party, dining and theater to adjust to various sound environments.
"People can now go into a restaurant or a loud social setting and can enjoy their life," Thomasson said. "Other people with hearing aids are just so frustrated with that. Ninety-five percent of them hate them in any kind of social situation."

You obviously have an exquisite eye for vintage clothes with a sort of timeless appeal!
Now that you model the etsy clothes, I get the impression you are attracted to many colors but keep and wear a narrower range. Essentially, your color sense seems very sophisticated, and the clothes you use in your wardrobe pictorials are highly flattering to your hair color and skin tone. Can you address your color theory? How do you balance colors and neutrals? Lights and darks? Do you have a formula or do you just go by instinct?

The Basics
Columbus Crew vs. D.C. United at RFK Stadium in the semifinals of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup.
TV info
7:30 p.m. ET, streaming live video at dcunited.com. Live audio at TheCrew.com
One of the longest-running rivalries in Major League Soccer will reconvene in the latter stages of the US Open Cup on Wednesday night, but there's no disguising the differing stakes for these two teams.
WATCH:Black & Gold Breakdown
WATCH:D.C. United preview USOC semifinal
Suffering through one of the worst seasons in their history, United are adrift at the bottom of the standings and desperately want an Open Cup trophy to salve their wounds. The Crew were founded by Lamar Hunt – the man whose contributions to North American soccer earned him an honorific from the nation's oldest tournament – and continue to be operated by Hunt Sports Group, but Robert Warzycha's squad is also juggling CONCACAF Champions League play and the chase for the MLS Supporters' Shield for best regular-season record.
Columbus may be distracted, but they already defeated DC 2-0 in their first meeting of the year. Can United's desire for cup glory enable them to overcome the apparent gulf in quality between these two sides?
Columbus Crew
Thanks to several seasons of sustained success, the Crew are battling the same crowded schedule that bedeviled United in past years. International and cup matches in midweek have forced Warzycha and his staff to manage players' minutes and shuffle lineups, but the club's stability and depth has helped them sustain their form and they remain contenders in three competitions.
There have been signs of strain, however. Emmanuel Ekpo is sidelined with a groin problem, defenders Gino Padula, Chad Marshall and Danny O'Rourke are fighting through nagging injuries, and the arrival of some international reinforcements has been delayed. The Crew were viciously unlucky to lose to Santos Laguna under extremely dubious circumstances in Mexico. After a 0-0 draw with Dallas at home last weekend, the Black-and-Gold must spend nearly a week in Washington for back-to-back meetings with United.
If anyone in MLS can overcome such challenges, it's Columbus. But with 13 matches over the final seven weeks of the season, it's all hands on deck from here on out.
D.C. United
Wednesday night's semifinal has been the most important date on DC's calendar for weeks. Though their extended misery in league play has put the playoffs all but mathematically out of reach and significant rebuilding looms in the offseason, an Open Cup title would bring a trophy – and even more importantly, involvement in CONCACAF Champions League – back to RFK in 2011.
Interim head coach Ben Olsen rested several regulars in last Sunday's 1-0 road loss to Chivas USA and can also bring strikers Danny Allsopp and Pablo Hernandez back into the side after the duo were left at home with illness and fatigue concerns, respectively. But victory over the Crew will require DC to overcome the same concerns that have dogged them all year.
"We have some fresh guys coming in," Olsen said on Tuesday. "I think that'll help. But it's still about, on the day, who shows up and who makes the big play and whether or not we can make the play that makes the difference. Last weekend I thought overall was a good performance, but again, we didn't make the play that counted and [Chivas USA] did. That's been a theme, an unfortunate theme."
Heroes & Villains
Guillermo Barros Schelotto vs. Clyde Simms: These veterans have faced off on plenty of previous occasions, but the stakes have rarely been higher, particularly for Simms. United's midfield anchor must keep constant tabs on the Argentinean maestro without compromising his team's shape or his own contributions in terms of possession and distribution.
"If you're smart, the way you defend as a team can take that playmaker out of the whole situation," DC goalkeeper Troy Perkins said. "But if you focus on that one guy so much, then you kind of forget what you're doing and what you're about and what the team is trying to do. Collectively, we've got to be able to defend properly."
Stat that makes you go "Hmm..."
United have lost 15 matches this season, but they've won every time they scored the game's first goal.
Keys to the Game
D.C. United
- Schelotto loves to pick out his tall teammates on free kicks, so avoid fouls around the penalty box
- Feed the Aussie: strike Danny Allsopp can thrive on regular, direct service from the wings
Columbus Crew
- Dent United's confidence and quieten the home crowd by scoring early
- Close down D.C. phenom Andy Najar quickly, even with double-teams if necessary
D.C. United
OUT: MF Brandon Barklage (L ACL tear); DF Barry Rice (head laceration); DF Rodney Wallace (L fibula fracture); DF Jed Zayner (R ankle sprain)Columbus
OUT: MF Robbie Rogers (L knee surgery); MF Emmanuel Ekpo (R groin strain)

You are all cordially invited to my third act
The Denver Post has been in my DNA since the moment of conception. Literally. My dad was a Denver Post sports writer, and my mom provided a weekly hard-news roundup from Jeffco. (But because she was a, you know — woman — in the 1970s, they titled her column, "Our Gal in Arvada.")
I've said it for as long as I can remember — I have Denver Post ink running in my veins.
So maybe I'm the most surprised of all to be reporting that I've accepted a very generous "voluntary separation agreement" from my employer. That means that as of Wednesday, for the first time in 18 years (this time around), I'll no longer be a full-time employee of The Denver Post.
Understand that I really don't want to go. But, with apologies to Beckett … I really want to go.
I'll still be popping up in the paper from time to time. I'll steward the announcement of the 11th annual Denver Post Ovation Awards honoring the best in Colorado theater (the nominations are coming Dec. 11; the winners on Dec. 25). And I'll contribute an occasional freelance story here and there.
So, wait. What? Why?
Why invite chaos into my life at the worst economic time in this country since the Depression? Because every once in a while, I think you really ought to invite chaos into your life. You never know how things are going to look when the storm settles and you clean up the mess. Maybe for the better.
The last time I invited chaos into my life, it was to take this job as theater critic at The Denver Post in 2001. And despite a few thousand hate mails to show for it, I think that worked out pretty well.
I've had 45 days to mull, hem and haw over this decision, and here's what I can tell you: I came up with 463 reasons to stay, and 463 reasons to go. And while looking in every nook, cranny and junk drawer for a sign from the universe to help me make my decision, I got one.
The other day, I came across a $600 check that was made out to me by Machebeuf High School nearly 20 years ago. It was payment for teaching a class in theater, and directing the school play. It never even occurred to me to cash that check because I would have done it for free. That was the greatest year of my life, and I didn't want to make money doing something I loved as much as I loved doing that. OK, yes, it helped that I was already working full-time at The Denver Post, and I didn't really need it. Seeing that check again reminded me of a time when I was a greater contributor to society than I am now as an 80-hour-a-week theater critic. And would like to be again.
If not now … when?
I'm not under any delusions about my 10-plus years as theater critic. When it comes to theatrical criticism, I don't believe readers of The Denver Post have been party to the brilliance of George Jean Nathan reincarnated, by any means. But I would suggest that I have always striven to be welcoming, colorful and provocative in a writing field that is often uninviting to the vast majority of readers who buy daily newspapers.
And yes, I would also suggest that we at The Denver Post have redefined how daily newspapers might cover theater as a beat in an era of exploding social media and dwindling news print. I take pride in having seen to it that, just as in 2001, we still manage to review an average of 150 plays a year, even though I'd guess the size of the available news hole is about 30 percent smaller today than it was 10 years ago.
And I take a hell of a lot of pride in our multimedia innovations that have taken full advantage of video, slideshows, audio and other new tools that have helped us to help you get the word out about your shows. By using the privilege of my position, and the opportunities that have come with it, fully and responsibly, I think I've been an advocate for the growth of Colorado theater. But as much as I love my job, I never wanted to be defined by it.
And now, suddenly, comes this intermission not of my own calling, but of my own choosing. This buyout affords me the opportunity to put the brakes on the runaway train of my life for a few months, and to indulge in the kind of writing that I have never allowed my full attention. Creating art, not interpreting and evaluating it.
This buyout is the gift of time — many months of it — to fulfill a promise I made more than 20 years ago to the wife of a friend of mine who committed suicide, leaving behind a young daughter. I have always believed there is the potential and need for a theatrical exploration of suicide that affords possible catharsis for the living, and revelation for the judgmental. What I am imagining would combine the percussive power of indie-rock music with modern dance to tell a universal story that never gets full and unfettered attention in the theater because it is presumed to be an unwatchable subject. I would like to disprove that theory.
So I am approaching this voluntary sabbatical as a self-imposed writing commission. Whether anyone sees it or produces it is, to me, secondary. I just have to write it. And even if the chaos I have invited into my life leads to financial ruin and prolonged, self-inflicted unemployment, I will never regret taking that risk.
Before I leave, please don't take my decision as a commentary on the direction and future of The Denver Post. The reasons for this round of wrenching staff reductions are far bigger than the presumed continued demise of The Grey Lady. Don't count that old broad out. We're still selling 538,132 papers on Sundays, 353,115 on weekdays, and our amazing www.denverpost.com, the metro area's leading media website, draws 40 million hits every month. Our reach and influence is greater than it ever has been. So yes, we still very much matter. The industry-wide struggle with how to monetize that online readership into a stabilizing revenue stream is a subject I'm more than happy to take on with you from a barstool.
I love my job. I love my co-workers. I love this newspaper. I am fighting proud of the stories we tell every day, and of the malfeasance we unearth, and of the accountability we demand from our leaders. As the Avett Brothers sing, "We came to break the bad. We came to cheer the sad. We came to leave behind the world a better way."
I have no doubt that economic necessity will bring about a reinvention in how our print edition is planned and presented that will make it more vital than ever. And I'll continue to be amazed at every multimedia innovation our Digital First team rolls out.
I am grateful to my editors for giving me the chance to do this job, and for indulging me in my passion to do it as well as I have had the time to do it in. Grateful to copy editors, fer obveous reesons. Grateful to the Colorado and national theater communities for welcoming, indulging … and forgiving me. Grateful to anyone who has ever taken my call. Or taken up arms against me in defense of their art.
While it may not have been time for me to fly, I've been handed this glorious set of wings … and I'm going to use them.
I honestly believe that there are no bad decisions. Only badly implemented decisions. I plan to make this a good one.
Theater companies: For the time being, continue to send your listings information and photos to both firstname.lastname@example.com and firstname.lastname@example.com. Direct story ideas to arts and entertainment editor Ray Rinaldi, firstname.lastname@example.com, or call 303-954-1540.
