Several newsletter readers have recently asked, "What is Forensic Genealogy?"
The word "forensic" means "relating to the use of science or technology in the investigation and establishment of facts or evidence." In this case, forensic would mean to use science or technology in addition to traditional records. In short, Forensic Genealogy is the use of something OTHER THAN standard records to add to your family history.
This is not to say that forensic genealogists ignore the records. Quite the contrary. Forensic genealogists always start with the available records. If those records are insufficient to prove a relationship, the forensic genealogist then looks for other clues. In other words, forensic genealogists think differently.
Actually, forensic genealogy is a term that usually means to research ancestry by the means of standard records AND MORE.
The term "forensic genealogy" is often misused as part of heir searches: finding heirs who stand to inherit property or goods left by a deceased individual. Actually, heir searchers often do use forensic genealogy to locate heirs, but the terms are otherwise unrelated. Forensic genealogy can be applied to almost all genealogy studies, whether heirs are involved or not.
The standard reference for forensic genealogy is Colleen Fitzpatrick's book of the same name, Forensic Genealogy. You can read more about her book, or order it online, as well as read more about Colleen's work at her web page at http://www.forensicgenealogy.info.
Here are several examples of forensic genealogy:
Forensic genealogists will digitally scan old photos and then magnify them greatly or use photo editing software to emphasize certain colors to find details not otherwise visible. Don't know where the photograph was taken of the old automobile? Scan the picture at very high resolution, and then see if you can decode the license plate information. How about a distant sign in the background? What is unique in the photo?
Would you like to determine the date of an old photograph so that you can find approximate dates of birth of the family members in the photo? If the photographer has his studio name on the photo, you might research the years he was in business.
When you cannot determine the ancestry of some individuals, you start researching the relationships of the person's neighbors. Families often lived close to each other. Sooner or later, you will often find a connection.
Tamura Jones wrote an interesting article about the work of Dudok van Heel, a Dutch genealogist and Rembrandt specialist. In an effort to identify the subjects in Rembrandt's "Night Watch" painting completed in 1642, van Heel spent years researching archives and inventories of estates of those suspected of being models in the painting. In several cases, van Heel found that clothing and other items depicted in the painting were later mentioned in inventories of estates. Those inventories clearly identified who was wearing what. He also consulted with experts in firearms to determine the value of the muskets shown in the 1642 painting and then was able to determine the relative wealth of each musket owner. This helped align the musket owners with certain families and paved the way for later identification of the individuals.
You can read Tamura Jones's interesting article at http://www.tamurajones.net/NightWatchIdentitiesRevealed.xhtml.
A more formal definition of forensic genealogy written by Dee Dee King is available at the Forensic Genealogy Services web site at http://goo.gl/T9NS7.
In short, forensic genealogists look "beyond the records" to gather all available clues.
You can learn more at the Council for the Advancement of Forensic Genealogy web site at http://www.forensicgenealogists.org/.

DeGette phone banks with One Colorado, campaigns throughout metro area
Congresswoman Diana DeGette wrapped up another busy day on the campaign trail today, stumping for legislative candidates and phone banking at One Colorado, the state's largest gay-rights organization.
The group was bolstered by a poll in today's Denver Post showing that nearly 70 percent of Coloradans support legal recognition of some sort.
DeGette faces Republican Danny Stroud in Congressional District 1, a Democratic stronghold primarily based in Denver.

Don't know why you say goodbye...
I say Hell-o.
The title of the first episode of the new spring season is called Hell-O. I watched it last night. And they make up for a 4 month break by packing in a LOT of content. Stop reading now if you haven't been catching up on all the Glee articles from Ausiello, from E!, from everyone and everywhere releasing information about the new installment.
The male Rachel Berry is cute and has hair like old John Mayer. And sings a lot better than Finn. But then again, like Lea Michele, he was Broadway trained. And in 45 minutes they manage to bitchslap Sarah Palin, Jessica Simpson, and Ghost Whisperer. This makes my life. Also, Harry Shum Jr doesn't get enough love. I am officially giving it to him. He's now my pretend high school BF. And he's not totally a child either.
Glee is back tomorrow TUESDAY April 13th.
To promote the show's return, many members of the cast made an appearance at The Grove this weekend including our goddess Jane Lynch who has confirmed she's engaged to her longtime girlfriend. Cory Monteith really does have the cutest dimples. And yes, Mark Salling, despite the futile protestations of his rep, is dating Naya Rivera. At least they were 3 weeks ago when several insiders told me they're always kissing onset.
I don't know why you say goodbye I say Hello...
Now try and get it out of your head.

The Wiggins Board of Trustees looked at another option for putting the final section of the new water pipeline through the town's flood levee during a meeting Wednesday evening.
Wiggins Interim Town Administrator Jon Richardson said he had contacted a local engineering firm about options and told the board it would be possible to bore under the levee.
He discussed that option, because the board had been shocked at the price tag of almost $180,000 for that last section of pipe given by the contractor which built the rest of the pipeline.
The initial pipeline contractor told the board that the cost reflects a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requirement that the pipe going through the levee be made of steel, not polyethylene. The job will require multiple welds and multiple inspections, which makes it expensive in manhours.
That contractor also said that the polyethylene pipe would actually be better than steel, because it would require less maintenance.
olyethylene pipes of this sort are not like plastic pipes people may be familiar with, since they are thicker and stronger.
It is unfortunate the town must pay the higher price for a material that is not as strong as the polyethylene, he said.
But the corps insists on the steel, and U.S. Department of Agriculture overseers of the project want the corps requirements met, board members said.
Apparently, the corps has never approved plastic pipe, said Tim Holbrook of Industrial Facilities Engineering, which designed the system and is watching over the project.
Also, a corps representative said that he was concerned about what might happen to local homeowners' flood insurance costs if the steel is not used. The corps worries about what might happen to the levee if there were a catastrophic failure of the pipe, he said.
The idea of boring under the levee is interesting, but it took many months to get approval for the design it has, and the town does not want to jeopardize the certification of its flood levee.
Going back to the original plan or another plan could create an issue, said Wiggins Town Attorney Melinda Culley.
Richardson said the USDA told him he could discuss the bore idea with the contractor and the board as long as the design met corps specifications.
The main concern is to do the project right, so the new water system can be used, said Mayor Margarito "Mac" Leon Jr.
Trustee Dan Neal said it is frustrating that the corps is deciding what should happen without even coming to the town to look at the project, given that the cost will heavily impact the town budget.
The pipeline contractor said he would be willing to talk to the corps about the use of plastic pipe, and the board decided to have him and some trustees talk with a corps representative.
Neal also asked the contractor to break out the costs of the final section of pipe, so the board knows what it is paying for.
The contractor said the bid is not done by man ours, but by crew days, since they would not be doing anything but the pipe. He said he could do the job on the original bid, or do it by the time and materials involved.
However, if there is a time overrun, the town would be taking on the risk of a higher cost if the project is done on a time and materials basis.
"This isn't a cheap piece of work," he emphasized.
He also said that the steel carrier pipe would have to be made to order, since it is not regular steel pipe, but it should not take too long to get it.
The contractor said it should only take about two weeks to finish up the project once the materials are in hand.
Neal said the town will have problems if there is not water running through the pipes soon.
Richardson said he would call the corps and try to arrange for a representative to come to town.
He said he is also still waiting to hear about what is needed for the Federal Emergency Management Agency to re-certify the flood levee.
Other matters
The board also:
Heard that a committee working on writing a grant application to repair and renovate the town park ball fields met again and is looking at the costs so it will know what matching funds the town would need to spend. Also, it is looking at new playground equipment as long as it is doing a grant.
Heard that a pickup truck was purchased at a price of $5,500 to replace one that caught on fire recently and was completely ruined.
Decided to buy a new audio recorder, since the old one used for official recordings of the board meetings is malfunctioning.

By the Rev. Dr. Ed Hird
Davin and Riel were perhaps our most famous Western Canadian pioneers. Louis Riel called for the creation of a new Canadian province. Nicholas Flood Davin called for the hanging of Louis Riel. "Riel is not a hero,"[1] said Davin. "…If Riel is not hanged, then capital punishment should be abolished."[2] Both died tragically, Riel on the end of a noose, Davin by his own hands.
Born in Kilfinane, Ireland, Davin served as a journalist in the Franco-Prussian war, seeing bodies piled six-deep.[3] Reporters in those days were often arrested as spies, being required by the governments to print false information in order to throw off the enemy. This is one of the reasons why reporters in England were not given bylines, so as to protect the freedom of the press.[4] Davin then became the editor of the new Belfast Times, but was dismissed after being so drunk that he reused his previous article from the Sheffield Times. Davin was so offended that he sued them for wrongful dismissal, demanding 5,000 pounds and being awarded only 50 pounds by the courts.[5]
Being a keen observer of social interactions, Davin surprisingly commented that 'the pulpit occupied almost the whole ground occupied by the newspaper today…The Editor has superseded the preacher."[6] After being commissioned by Prime Minister John A MacDonald to study the American residential schools, Davin the future federal MP wrote the infamous confidential Davin Report which resulted in our First Nations being subjected to the Residential School tragedy.[7] The indigenous people already went to day-schools run by various churches, but Davin was not satisfied, racistly saying "The child, again, who goes to a day school learns little, and what little he learns is soon forgotten, while his tastes are fashioned at home, and his inherited aversion to toil is in no way combated."[8] Sadly both the Canadian government and the Canadian churches uncritically accepted the Davin Report claim that "it was found that the day-school did not work, because the influence of the wigwam was stronger than the influence of the school. (p. 1)"
By hastily imitating the apparent success of the American native residential schools, great and lasting harm was done. The Davin Report patronizingly said: "The experience of the United States is the same as our own as far as the adult Indian is concerned. Little can be done with him. He can be taught to do a little at farming, and at stock-raising, and to dress in a more civilized manner, but that is all."[9] The Davin Report is ground zero to the deep wound that we inflicted on the First Nations. With Prime Minister Harper's apology two years ago, our First Nations have only begun to recover from decades of residential school-inflicted trauma.[10] The impressive new 'People of the Inlet' film by the local Tsleil Waututh First Nation shows what great courage people like the late Chief Dan George showed in rebuilding his devastated people.
After serving as a reporter in Toronto, Davin became editor in 1883 of the brand-new Regina Leader newspaper.[11] My great-grandmother Mary Anderton McLean, after taking journalism at a women's college in Kirkland Ontario, served as one of Davin's reporters covering the Louis Riel crisis. My late Uncle Don Allen, who was passionate about history, often told us about this period, noting how sympathetic his grandmother was to Riel's plight. Davin carried on the British tradition of not listing as a byline the names of the reporters who wrote for the Regina Leader. This was helpful for my great-grandmother Mary in protecting her from arrest by the RCMP when she snuck in disguised as a Roman Catholic priest confessor to obtain an interview with Louis Riel. Mary McLean quotes Davin "the officer in command of the LEADER (saying) 'An interview must be had with Riel if you have to outwit the whole police force of the North-West'."[12] Because Davin protected her anonymity, some writers like CB Koester and his fellow playwright Ken Mitchell have popularized the myth that Davin himself disguised himself as that priest.[13] While waiting for my throat operation in May 1982, I spent a week with my late Uncle Don Allen who carefully explained to me about his grandmother's interview with Louis Riel. "When I first saw you on the trial, I loved you" was said by Riel to Mary McLean, not to the man Davin who was calling for his hanging.[14]
The November 19th 1885 edition of the Regina Leader could not be clearer that Davin himself was not the reporter who was disguised as a Roman Catholic priest. Instead Davin is described several times by the reporter as the proprietor and the editor in chief, both terms prominently displayed by Davin's name in editions of the Regina Leader.[15] Mary McLean also writes in the article about another female reporter (code-named Saphronica) who earlier failed to get entrance, most likely referring to Kate Simpson-Hayes, Davin's mistress.[16]
This confusing of Mary McLean's Riel interview with Davin forced CB Koester to 'contort himself into knots' suggesting that for Davin, there was two Riels, one the rebel who Davin wanted to hang, and another Riel to whom Davin was compassionate.[17] Such verbal gymnastics were entirely unnecessary if one simply acknowledge that it was the female reporter, not the male editor-in-chief/proprietor, who did Riel's final interview.
After having two children with Davin, his mistress Kate Simpson-Hayes gave the children away and became a reporter in Winnipeg.[18] When Davin then married Eliza Reid, he brought his six-year-old son Henry to live with him as a 'nephew', but was unable to locate his daughter.[19] In Davin and Kate's final argument over the daughter, Kate said to him: "You go your way. I'll go mine", symbolically pointing to the Winnipeg Free Press building.[20] Davin was so crushed that he bought a gun and shot himself on Oct 18th 1901 at the Winnipeg Clarendon Hotel.[21]
The tragic ending to the lives of both Riel and Davin reminds us that our Canadian history has much pain and trauma which can only be resolved through reconciliation and forgiveness. May the Prince of Peace bring deep restoration to the painful wounds left by Canada's residential school tragedy.

text: By blending opposing structural and ideological concepts so harmoniously, women's blouses represent the apex of fluidity within women's fashion. Sparked with creativity, blouses are perpetually being redefined by the designer and the wearer alike, and this season's selection highlights this conversation. The back and forth relationship is symbolized through the many innovations that each individual blouse houses in this selection of impeccably-made women's tops. Elegant silken options generously grant incomparable flowing looks, while challenging asymmetric constructions afford the wearer a diverse array of styles. Semi-sheer detailing paired with patchworked composition evade reason to create wholly original silhouettes. Pairing with a skirt rather than trousers allows for a completely different experience; women's blouses are entirely interpretive, existing to seamlessly complete an outfit and simultaneously protest brazenly its own completion. This selection of blouses cuts to the core of expression and speaks volumes through its willingness to challenge the conventions that supposedly govern its own existence.

WWE wrestler Adam Rose arrested on domestic violence charges
Raymond Leppan, known to pro wrestling fans as World Wrestling Entertainment's Adam Rose, was arrested Wednesday in at his home in Lutz, Fla., on charges of witness tampering and domestic violence.
From the Tampa Bay Times:
Leppan, 36, was arguing with his wife about marital problems at their Lutz home when he grabbed her, pulled her toward him and screamed at her, according to a Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office arrest report.
When Leppan released her, she picked up the home telephone to call 911. During the call, Leppan grabbed the phone, preventing her from reporting the incident, the report said.
When a deputy arrived, the report said, Leppan admitted to pulling the phone away.
Leppan was arrested and booked into the Orient Road Jail on a charge of misdemeanor battery and a felony charge of preventing communication to law enforcement. He was being held Wednesday without bail.
Leppan was handed a 60-day suspension from the WWE on April 16 after violating the company's wellness policy for the second time. He said the positive test came from his use of Adderall, prescribed by a doctor to treat his ADHD. He posted a photo of a note from his doctor on Twitter on May 5.
He signed with the WWE in 2010, wrestling under the name Leo Kruger in the company's developmental territory. He made his debut as Rose on the main roster in 2014 but was relegated to the lower card. In 2016, he joined Curtis Axel, Bo Dallas and Heath Slater to form The Social Outcasts.

"All I heard was a boom and my head hit the seat, and my leg hit the seat, too," said senior Shanel Dorrell. "(The driver) said 'Everybody stay on the bus.'"
Two teens were in the car were heading to Englewood High School. Video recorded by a homeowner shows the car pulled in front of the bus.
Police say the driver of the car, who has not been named, was cited for failing to stop at a stop sign. Witnesses say the bus may have been exceeding the 30 mph speed limit on Galveston Avenue.
Four people were treated for injuries, according to Jacksonville Fire-Rescue spokesman Tom Francis. Two teens who were riding the bus and both teens in the car were hospitalized with minor injuries.
"I thought somebody was killed, to be honest with you," said Robert Willis. "Look at that car. They should have been killed. They come through here 60 mph and never stop. If you don't believe it, come here one day and sit here and watch. They don't slow down. Something's going to have to be done."
Willis lives right across the street from where the crash happened. He said speeding has been an issue in that area for a while and said every couple of months there's either a crash or someone runs into the fence in his yard, which is what prompted him to put up the surveillance camera to record traffic in the intersection.
A spokesman for Student Transportation of America, which operates the bus under contract for Duval County Schools, said the driver, who was also not name, was suspended pending the outcome of its investigation.
"We are gathering all of the facts in this accident. Who is at fault will come out in this investigation," the company said in a statement. "We are thankful that there were no serious injuries to the students and bus driver involved in this morning's accident."
While we don't know the driver's name, Channel 4 did learn she has two traffic citations in Florida -- one in 1989 for speeding and another in 2003 for making an improper turn.
Willis, whose camera recorded the crash (seen, left), said something needs to be done to make traffic through his intersection obey the law.
"If there's a speed bump out there, unless your an idiot, you're going to slow down, so you have time to stop," said Willis. "Nothing slows them down and they come on through."

The Lady Bisons swept South Carolina State 3-0 in the second match of the Gamecock Invitational at the University of South Carolina in Columbia. The set scores were 25-11, 25-18 and 25-11 Friday afternoon.
The Lady Bisons posted a .370 hitting percentage as a team.
"We were pretty efficient," Rosenthal said.
The win was nice, but the match allowed Rosenthal to watch freshman Caitlin "Dot" Dotson work as a setter. She is the heir apparent to fill the role when Stefine "Jake" Pease ends her collegiate career.
"Dot is the back-up setter and the setter of the future," Rosenthal said. "I like what she has been doing defensively for us, but at the end of the day she is here to set.
"She does it every day in practice. But for her to get that opportunity in a match is invaluable."
Rosenthal compares Dotson favorably with Pease.
"Dot is very athletic and very aggressive," Rosenthal said. "She has a little different style of leadership than Jake, but she has that drive and that winner's mentality."
Also enjoying a longer amount of time on the court were freshman Claire Peterson, redshirt freshman Amanda Rhein, senior Elly Kaiser, sophomore Kory Honel and junior Kelsey Neumann.
"It's one of those things where we could get them in when the pressure of winning wasn't there," Rosenthal said. "They could just go out and play. It is really important to get them playing time. They have worked really hard.
"I liked that we were able to play them. I also liked that they executed what we had been working on. It had to be fun for them. They see the team ahead of them and know they are going to be a big part of the future."
Rosenthal admits it is often a difficult transition for players who were standouts on their high school or club teams but find themselves playing reserve roles as freshmen and sophomores.
"It's one of the things we are very up front with them about," Rosenthal said. "All of the positions are open. The players have to be honest with themselves in determining if they are better than the person starting. That's a hard thing for them to do sometimes because they have never had to really answer that question."
Middle blocker Alex Kelly led with 16 kills, her second match high of the day. She posted 17 kills in a 3-0 match sweep of Furman to start the tournament. Kelly also had a .500 hitting percentage.
Outside hitter Meghan Hinemeyer was credited with 12 digs, a match high. She also had a match high 17 digs against Furman.
The Lady Bisons are 6-2. South Carolina State is 1-9.
They will face host South Carolina Saturday morning at 10 a.m. South Carolina, 2-6, also swept Furman and South Carolina State Friday.
"South Carolina has nine freshmen on the team," Rosenthal said. "They are going to get better and better each week.
"It will be a tough test. They have a height advantage, but it won't be the first time we have been up against that. For us it is about executing our game plan."

User:Tae/Dell Inspiron 1525
This is a draft of the Dell Inspiron 1525's guide, update to 2010.05 installer snapshot.
When the installation media has boot, hit TAB in the first entry and add i915.modeset=0 to the options. Then hit ENTER to install.
There are different many variants of this notebook. You will notice differences in CPU and Wireless. Some models also have a webcam.
There are two options to get audio working: ALSA and OSS. With ALSA the sound works well, both headphone jacks work and volume can be set independently. With OSS you will generally get better quality and louder sound.
The notebook comes with the Intel GMA X3100 GPU, which uses the xf86-video-intel driver. See Intel for datails.
Since xf86-video-intel 2.10, using KMS is mandatory, so do not use GRUB Frame Buffer.
Keyboard worked out of the box.
For AZERTY or other layouts, use a HAL policy.
This is /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi for Belgian azerty:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!-- -*- SGML -*- --> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keymap"> <append key="info.callouts.add" type="strlist">hal-setup-keymap</append> </match> <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keys"> <merge key="input.xkb.rules" type="string">base</merge> <!-- If we're using Linux, we use evdev by default (falling back to keyboard otherwise). --> <merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">keyboard</merge> <match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.kernel.name" string="Linux"> <merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">evdev</merge> </match> <merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">be</merge> <merge key="input.xkb.variant" type="string" /> </match> </device> </deviceinfo>
Touchpad worked out of the box. To enable scroll and more, install xf86-input-synaptics. With the default configuration file it will work well, but if you want to fine tune the behavior, read Touchpad Synaptics.
We have variations...
Intel PRO wireless
$ lspci | grep -i net
shows something like:
Network: PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection module: iwl3945
You are required to get iwlwifi-3945-ucode out of [core].
# pacman -S iwlwifi-3945-ucode
Then add iwl3945 to your MODULES array in /etc/rc.conf
MODULES=( ... iwl3945 ... )
Broadcom BCM4312
$ lspci | grep -i net
Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)
You can try two drivers, broadcom-wl from AUR, or b43 with the b43-firmware from the kernel. The last one do not need to be rebuild every time the kernel is upgraded.
You need hsfmodem package from AUR in order to get modem working. After you install that package you need to:
- Run
hsfconfigas root to build the module and initialize the modem. A reboot is required before the modem can be initialized. Run
hsfconfigagain after reboot.
- The modules are automatically loaded and a
/dev/modemsymlink is setup for use with the modem. Now use wvdial or other dialer programs to connect to the internet.
Dialing has not been tested, however the modem device will show in /dev.
USB, SD card slot, ethernet, firewire, VGA, S-video, HDMI, webcam and mediakeys
All work out of the box.
Not tested.

Obi John Kenobe – thanks again for your help. I always come away a better person. Great spending some more time with you and the story of that retreat was awesome!
It was an extremely powerful week for me. I just want to thank you for your time listening to me and your awesome feedback. You are truly very talented. I was so amazed at how quickly you were able to assess an individuals situation and address deep conscious and unconscious issues. It was like you had telepathic powers!!! I've never witnessed anything like it in person. People like you are normally on television. I'm not kidding!! Continue to follow your passion and be a blessing to others! I am thankful that our paths.
John led our Forum retreats over a period of several years and took us on a journey that was as vivid and impactful as one could imagine. He continually built upon themes and provided us with the tools to first imagine and then make tangible incredible possibilities. His process is both inspirational and pragmatic, and he has rich personal experiences to bring to the table, along with his own body of work. John is an passionate leader and his sincerity is unmatched. He is a coach who can bring transformational possibilities into play for those willing to invest and reap the rewards!
Just wanted to reach out and thank you both for supporting our forum this past week at retreat. You are gifted, and I am so glad that you offer yourselves to the world the way you do! You are making a difference and we are grateful! I thought you also did an excellent job of covering what we asked you to in a short one day with us.

The Mystery that Saves Us From Ourselves
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the key to the Christian faith
Do we really understand all that Easter encompasses?
Hope for a "new world" must rest in God, not man
God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
- 1 John 5:11

An alligator named Mr Teeth was apparently guarding a marijuana stash, California officials said Thursday after coming across the 5ft reptile during a routine probation check. Deputies entering Assif Mayar's home on Wednesday also found 34lb of marijuana valued at an estimated $100,000. Mr Teeth was in a Plexiglass tank nearby.
"We get guard dogs all of the time when we search for grow houses and people stashing away all types of dope. But alligators? You just don't see that every day," said Alameda County sergeant JD Nelson.
Mayar, 32, told deputies he got the alligator to commemorate rapper Tupac Shakur's 1996 death.
"We have come across alligators before, but nobody can remember one this big and situated in such close proximity to act sort of as a sentry to the marijuana," Nelson said.
Mayar, who is on probation after pleading guilty last year to disturbing the peace, was arrested on suspicion of possessing marijuana for sale. He could also face citations from the California Fish and Game Commission, including possession of an exotic animal without a permit.
Alameda County animal control officers eventually took the alligator to the Oakland Zoo. Officials there said Mr Teeth was very sick and was being treated at the zoo's veterinary hospital

I finished a new time game last night. It is Seuss-themed, of course! It is similar to the Valentime unit, where the kids use a dry-erase marker to draw in the hands on each analog clock. Here are a few pictures:
If you haven't done so already, make sure to grab your Seusstacular Roll and Cover freebie from last Tuesday's post here.
Also, don't forget to answer the Dr. Seuss poll question on our facebook page! {It's a 1-click answer!}
I also finished up my Chocotastic Math Mini-Unit! It includes three chocolate-themed math games: Chocotastic Roll and Cover, Chocolate Place Value, and Sweet Scoot Word Problems Game {mixed addition and subtraction to 20}. These games are perfect for small group, math tubs, or station activities. Check it out:
|Chocolate Place Value

I was originally going to include literacy centers in this chocolate unit. I changed my mind, so I'm offering this writing prompt to my wonderful readers for free. :) Click the picture to download.

I found this great article on living frugally and thought it was a good read.
Do you avoid a lot of the expenses that many of your peers spend money on, such as technology and meals out?
For the most part, yes. I have a lower-end Android phone because I needed a new phone. I went as cheap as possible. I don't own a car, I rely on public transportation, and sometimes biking. I have a laptop, because I need it for writing. I do have Internet access because it's pretty important to get online. My only extra bill is Netflix, and I'm considering getting rid of that. I don't go out to eat, or just for special occasions. I cook for every meal. I don't drink coffee. I try to stick with water. I do go out to bars, but not every night. That's my best way to meet people and experience cities.
What's your typical meal?
I usually buy a pound of beef and a package of chicken and make easy Mexican dishes. I get some vegetables and mix it all together and throw it on a tortilla. I do a lot of pasta dishes. When I'm working, I usually pack a lunch, I make a sandwich plus chips or cookies to get me through the day. Then I get home and cook a fuller meal. I try to have a good mix [of food] so I don't get sick. My brother taught me little tricks to take different ingredients around the house, like seasonings, to make a sauce that's different and more unique, to give yourself different tastes.
What about clothes?
Once or twice a year, I might get a few new things, like an extra pair of jeans or pants, or a couple shirts, but I still have shirts I wore to college, so they're six or seven years old or older. If a job requires certain clothes, then I'll buy clothes for that. I maybe get one new pair of shoes a year and make them last as long as possible. I mostly shop at cheaper places, like thrift stores or Salvation Army or Goodwill. Those are good places to hit up.
Read the rest at here

Chocolate Almond Spread
You will be surprised how easy it is to churn up this decadent and yet healthy Chocolate Almond Spread. Best of all, there's no cooking involved here. Just use your trusted blender or food processor to process all the ingredients until it reaches your preferred consistency. The original recipe was posted by Viviane from Chocolate Chilli Mango blog. The only change I made was I used store-bought organic crunchy almond butter instead of roasted almond. The result was fantastic and I couldn't agree more with Viviane that it does taste better than any other sweet chocolate and hazelnut spread. Do check out the original recipe from Chocolate Chilli Mango.
Chocolate Almond Spread
1 Jar (340 g) Crunchy Almond Butter
2 tsp Vanilla Paste
3 to 4 Tbsp Coconut Sugar
4 Tbsp Raw Cacao or 100% Cocoa Powder
2 Tbsp Vanilla Protein Powder (optional)
Water (adjust the consistency accordingly)
Combine almond butter, vanilla paste, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla protein powder in a food processor or a blender. Whizz all the ingredients together by adding a little water at a time until it reaches your preferred consistency. Scrape the chocolate almond spread into a clean jar and store in the refrigerator.

WEST HARTFORD, Conn., July 1 (UPI) -- A brawl over murder suspect and former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez broke out in a West Hartford, Conn., diner and led to three arrests, police said.
Police said Hernandez' brother D.J. may have been in the restaurant when the fight began but could not confirm it. If he was, he was gone before police arrived, Lt. Frank Fallon said.
The early-morning fight began after an unidentified person called out, "Hey, Aaron Hernandez" after seeing a man who resembled Hernandez, a resident of nearby Bristol, Conn. Two of the three arrested said they had been sitting with Hernandez' brother, police said.
D.J. Hernandez, a local resident, is an assistant football coach at the University of Iowa and former University of Connecticut player.
Alberto Lopez, 30, Jesus Agosto, 36 and Thomas miller, 30, were each arrested and charged with assault, breach of peace and criminal mischief, the Hartford, Conn., Courant reported Monday.
Two of the alleged combatants, and a woman sitting at a nearby table, were injured but declined medical treatment, police said.
Aaron Hernandez was charged with murder in the death of Odin Lloyd on June 28.

IT pros say their devices save them time; cyber crash course could be just what your career needs.
Mobile devices increasingly are changing the way federal employees work. And this is especially good news for information technology workers, as the use of mobile devices has allowed for a lot more flexibility and even greater work-life balance, according to a new survey by Solarwinds.
The survey of 184 public and private sector IT administrators found that all respondents use at least one mobile device for work, with half saying they use two devices for work. The most popular devices among IT professionals were the iPhone, iPad, Android phone,Blackberry and Android tablet.
Nearly half of IT professionals said they spend between six and 15 hours per week working after hours or on their own free time. The majority (55 percent) of these workers solve after-hours problems from home using their mobile devices, while 40 percent said they work after hours using their mobile devices at another location.
This flexibility has enabled IT workers to be more productive at their jobs, the study found. For example, 77 percent of IT pros said they save time each week by working from their mobile devices, with 62 percent saying they save about 5 hours per week and 4 percent saying they save more than 10 hours per week.Cyber Crash Course for Your Career
With the looming threats of tighter budgets, pay cuts and sequestration, federal employees -- whether working in information technology or other fields -- may be looking for a career change. And if you consider yourself a creative problem solver, the in-demand, high-paying field of cybersecurity might be right for you, according to one expert.
Eric Cole, a senior fellow at the SANS Institute, said Monday that SANS is hosting a new training session next month that provides participants with little to no knowledge of cybersecurity with the basic foundational knowledge to get started on a cyber career.
"In five days, we'll get them to understand the terminology so they can go into the workplace and understand how to communicate with other cybersecurity professionals, ask the right questions and effectively learn the technical skills," Cole said.
Cole said that not only is the training event drawing interest from professionals in various fields, like lawyers and accountants, it's also drawing a diverse age group. For example, some parents have enrolled their children in the course in hopes of getting them excited about a cybersecurity career, while other participants are professionals in their 30s looking for a career change or workers nearing retirement who simply want to learn something new so they can be protected at home, Cole said.
"Students will walk into this class with no knowledge of cybersecurity and walk out with knowledge and roles they can use to be effective in the information security space," he said.
And despite tight budgets and potential cuts to pay and benefits at federal agencies, cybersecurity is one field that's growing. A quick search for cybersecurity positions on USAJOBS yields more than 4,500 results, 700 of which are in the Washington area, Cole said.

New York, January 31, 2012--The convictions of two journalists in the Central African Republic over their critical coverage of a top official constitute political censorship, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
On Friday, a judge in the capital, Bangui, convicted Ferdinand Samba, editor of the private weekly Le Démocrate, on charges of defamation, insult, and incitement to hatred over a series of opinion articles dating back to September 2011 that were critical of finance minister Sylvain Ndoutingaï, according to news reports. Only the incitement charge carried a prison sentence under the country's 2005 press law, the journalist's defense lawyer, Nicolas Tiangaye, told CPJ.
Samba, who has been imprisoned since mid-January based on a complaint filed by Ndoutingaï, was sentenced to 10 months' imprisonment and a fine of 1 million CFA francs (US$1,976), news reports said. The judge also ordered the journalist to pay 10 million CFA francs (US$19,762) in damages to Ndoutingaï and imposed a one-year suspension on Le Démocrate. Tiangaye told CPJ that although he immediately filed an appeal upon hearing the verdict, authorities had already sealed the newspaper's offices and returned the journalist to Ngaragba Central Prison in Bangui.
Another newspaper editor, Patrick Agoundou of the pro-government La Plume, was convicted in absentia on similar charges, according to news reports. The journalist had written articles criticizing Ndoutingaï's management of public finances and had reported on allegations of abuse of power and embezzlement, local journalists told CPJ. Fearing arrest, Agoundou fled the country a few weeks ago, local journalists said.
"The judge's decision to suspend Le Démocrate for one year and the prison sentences given to Ferdinand Samba and Patrick Agoundou were politically motivated in order to silence critical voices," said CPJ Africa Advocacy Coordinator Mohamed Keita. "We call on the appeals court to reverse Samba's jail sentence and urge authorities to free Samba immediately."

Post subject: Puppy 4.31 and Pulp
Subject description: Thinkpads, DELLs, HP, Compaq, Winbook
Works great on Thinkpad 560x (233MHz, 96MB, using Pulp01) except can't get sound to work.
The laptop no longer boots from any hard drive so I boot to floppy and then use
loadlin from the hard drive.
Works perfectly on Thinkpad 600E (400MHz, 288MB, Puppy 4.31) with dead onboard mouse
which had to be disabled with a hex editor before the laptop would boot. Lilo.
Also on a Thinkpad 770E (266MHz, 228MB, Puppy and Pulp) which lost its floppy controller
and then stopped booting from any hard drive. I boot to MRCC (?) DOS Clean using
Ultimate Boot CD (a regular DOS boot CD won't do it) and then use loadlin.
These last two required manual setup of CD4237B sound and some adjustments to
BIOS (acpi=off, forget what else but full instructions were online some place).
The two slower models (did not check the 400MHz) crash using Puppy 4.31
mplayer but work with pulp mplayer, which appears to have been compiled
for i586 (PII without MMX2 or AMD-K6-2). The i586 version works on newer
computers and should be standard. (Also mplayer source code was set to
compile for i486 architecture with the i686 cpu - I hand edited when
I compiled my own mplayer).
DELL D600 - everything works great except the 1.6GHz cpu runs at 600MHz even
with the correct power supply and Speedstep set correctly (I even downloaded
and ran an XP program for the Speedstep bug), and the battery
charges but the computer recently stopped being able to run off it even
fully charged (30 min > 0 min in one day). We had to replace the keyboard.
(Had two dead D600s to rob it from). Typing on it right now.
From a friend who was tired of replacing batteries.
It was running at full speed until halfway through a netflix movie
and has not gone back to full speed since, and keeps complaining about
the DELL 4.6A power supply that we provided it with (OEM, right one)
not being identifiable. Works the same with 3.5A. Lacks a floppy drive.
Another DELL 900MHz (don't have it here) works okay except that if you
use framebuffer console (in Pulp linux - I can't find fbcon for puppy 4.31)
sound disappears. In Puppy and also Basiclinux. It has an odd USB port which I
had to compile a special kernel for in Basiclinux but it works in Puppy.
This came to us because it was running at a crawl with XP and Norton (some
driver conflict). No antivirus needed any more. Sound was turned down
AND muted by alsaconfig but works now. This one only worked with the 126.96.36.199
kernel - with all other laptops I use the retro kernel but the hardware is
screwy in various ways.
A DELL Latitude 300MHz works well with puppy (if you plug in a keyboard,
since the onboard one finished dying over the course of a few days after
it came to me). Sound is crummy but usable. I had to change a BIOS setting
which was causing the CPU to run at very low speed during boot, and we
put black electrician's tape on the mouse buttons so they would stay put.
Two Compaq AMD-K6-2 machines which need i586 mplayer:
Compaq Presario 1200 - 475MHz, 32MB onboard memory plus 128MB added and
a 200MHz swapfile. Pulp 01 (I started with 96MB).
Alsa sound works well (oss driver for via82cxxx does not play any sound).
I forget if I chose Xvesa or Xorg. Firepup 4 crashes with illegal instruction
when it loads, Seamonkey crashes with illegal instruction when I try
to access Google Voice, and Opera 9.64 has very scrambled video
(big black areas). I should try the other X. Basiclinux works with
all three browsers (Xfbdev) with no problems so it could be the
video. I will try to find Xfbdev for Pulp (4.12 kernel) or use
DSL linux instead. AMD-K6-2 runs slower than rated speed so
it takes forever to start the browsers anyway. Makes a nice radio
using lynx with lynx.cfg set to use mplayer as VIEWER/DOWNLOADER..
(Oddly enough, this one was given to us with no hardware problems
unless you count only 32MB RAM). 800x600x16 color. It has one
double-thick PCMCIA slot which is perfect for a red NIC card that
takes up the whole space and won't fit in most computers.
Compaq Presario 1675. 380MHz, 64MB onboard, and it recently stopped
recognizing the 128MB added RAM so won't run regular Puppy. It came
with Win2k (very slow boot now) and a power jack that needed to be
resoldered, and I had added Basiclinux, which worked fine except
yesterday the pcmcia port seems to have died (error message about
not finding a bridge) so I copied pulp to hda2 and attempted to
install lilo to dual boot with 2K. I set pulp as default and it
booted to Basiclinux. (I had to copy the bootsector via floppy).
I installed lilo to floppy and it booted partway into Pulp then
'loading kernel modules' and it stopped. Don't know if this is
related to the design or the broken pcmcia. I had hoped to
try with USB wireless. Might try DSL live CD with USB wireless,
or use itas an MP3/CD player with pulp. Sound works fine in Basiclinux.
A 900MHz HP Pavilion N5415 that came to us with dead pcmcia
and some odd controller problems (XP sometimes sees the CD-RW
drive to write to but can always read from it,
and sometimes finds USB headphones). Works fine with Puppy.
Crummy sound unless you plug in speakers or headphone. Does 1280
resolution but with Basiclinux/mplayer DVDs play in the middle
half of it at 800 and won't fill the screen (Xfbdev, Xvesa,
svga, vesa, fbdev).
Gxine (Puppy) and SMplayer (XP) I think do fullscreen.
A few keys are loose but go back on easily. Runs quite hot.
Winbook XLi -300MHz, upped it to 256MB RAM, comes with both
types of laptop mouse, both PS/2, both recognized by Basiclinux
but Puppy could not find either so I had to plug in serial or
USB mouse. Sound works in Basiclinux but could not make it
work in Puppy. (Crummy sound anyway). Basiclinux keyboard
and mouse freeze up when you do anything graphical due to
some kernel bug in 2.4.31 and earlier. I installed 2K and
everything works, except we had to take apart and repair
the floppy drive.
Gateway Solo 2000 200MHz 110MB RAM (three slots using some
strange RAM and that is all I could round up), given to us
because video did not work in Win98 with text expansion.
Sound appears to have died (I think it worked with Win98)
but it works okay otherwise with puppy 4.31. High quality
screen and keyboard, quite light especially if you remove
floppy, CD-ROM and battery.
These were all given to us free by friends and other people
whose computers or other things we fixed. The under 300MHz
models are quite slow to load graphical browsers, and semi-
recent browsers need more than 96MB total RAM. So my cutoff
for puppy on the internet is 200MHz 96MB. Lots of those
around free for the fixing. You can even sort of watch
Youtube at 400MHz (a series of stills).

If this has been done, can someone please link me to it?
Otherwise....I am always really interested at reading what each of you are running Puppy on.
My EEPC-701 is running pupeee. The pupeee is installed on one of my 3 USB hard drives that I can plug into the 3 USB ports. This means that I have a machine with 4.5T of hard drive. The purpose of this machine is just to show it can be done. I can edit videos on it.

Post subject: Via Epia 5000 & Puppy 3.01
As a 15-year Linux user I've had many systems I've custom built, most of them being ITX-based. I love small and quiet!
My most recent creation was built from old parts. It consists of:
1. Via Epia 5000 motherboard with a Via Samuel 2 533MHz CPU
2. On-board Trident Cyberblade graphics
3. 384MB of SDRAM
I've loaded it up with Puppy 3.01 and can play smooth DivX files with it!

Post subject: Specs
Subject description: What are you running?
I'm really impressed with the hardware being used/recycled to run Puppy! This means that $MS has failed in forcing "outdated" (according to them) lots of working computers into the landfill. I was running an ASUS, AT mobo with 458 Mhz CPU until a couple of months ago when it finally gave it up. Why throw perfectly working computer hardware into the dump just because some overly rich guy says, "It's time to upgrade for I can make more bucks."? Some of us can't afford to buy bleeding edge computers every two years of so.
I'm running two computers with Puppy right now.
I just installed Wary 5.0 to a just built computer. Mobo: new Soyo SY-K7VME, PW-450 PSU, Video Card: Nvidia 32MB, PCI Video Graphics Card, 512 MB RAM (Kingston), Floppy drive, CDRW-DVD-ROM, LITE-ON SOHC-5239V06C, CPU is AMD Athlon XP 1800+, socket A, 1.53 Ghz, HDD is Seagate ATA 100, 7200 RPM, 20 GB, BIOS dated as 2003. Monitor is Dell CRT at 1024 x 768 x 256 , Modem is US Robotics internal hardware modem, PS/2 mouse, 2 button, run through KVM switch.
I tried installing an Epson NX215, USB connection printer, but it didn't work. The only driver offered was the NX210 and it does not drive the printer. The printer does react, but only spits out empty page after empty page. I have the installation files for this printer and got it working on Slackware 13.0, but not fully functional because the kernel needs to be at least 2.6.3xxx. It should work on the Puppy Wary 5.0 kernel, but I don't know how to install the installation files in a Puppy distro. The files offered for installing the NX215 are either .deb or .rpm. Which would I use install in Puppy Wary 5.0?
Today is my first day running Wary 5.0, so I haven't fully tested everything, but what I see at present is really good.

I moved to
Puppy 5.2.5
on my ACER TravelMate 5511AWLMi
- AMD Turion 64 Mobile Technology MK-36 2 GHz, 512KB L2 cache
- ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 HyperMemory
Runs flawlessly, except from the ATI Radeon drivers, for which I cannot find a way to have a working/non-crashing GL driver.
I added LibreOffice, Pidgin, Thunderbird, Firefox, Scummvm, ZSNES, PDFEdit and Transmission.

i am using:
amd phenom 2 x6 1090t
8gb ddr3 dual channel
500gb hdd
gigabyte ga78 am3 + mobo (waiting keenly for bulldozer)
it has built in radeon 300 gfx, but i am getting a decent card in the next month or so
it all works perfectly, and a lot better than the "big" distros, which have got absolutely abysmal video hardware support (ubuntu gives me 1050 in glxgears with a radeon 6870)
in the time it took me to boot windows, edit this signature, save it, and shutdown, an identical spec pc was able to boot puppy, start songbird, and reboot 3 times.

Mo. voters will decide next month whether to raise tax on tobacco
Proposition B would raise tax by 73 cents
The campaign to raise Missouri's lowest-in-the-nation tobacco tax said an increase will help improve the health of Missourians and provide money for education.
KMBC's Micheal Mahoney reported that Proposition B will raise Missouri's tobacco tax by 73 cents to 90 cents per pack of cigarettes. It it is now 17 cents per pack.
Boosters said the tax hike would provide $283 million more tax dollars for Missouri.
Twenty percent of that money would would go toward efforts to prevent young people from starting to use tobacco and helping adults quit.
Fifty percent of the money, approximately $141 million, would go toward public education.
While that is a substantial amount of money, Missouri spends more than $6 billion on its public schools each year. Thirty percent of the money would be directed to higher education.
The measure has its critics.
The Missouri Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Owners Association said the tax hike is more than a 700 percent increase in the tax.
Ron Leone, of the MPCA, said the hike would harm Missouri retailers, especially near the Missouri-Kansas border. Both fuel and tobacco taxes are lower in Missouri than Kansas.
Leone said there is no ironclad provision the added tax money would go to education and tobacco prevention.
Misty Snodgrass, a spokeswoman for the measure, said a specific account will be established to direct the increase in funds.
Missouri voters will be asked to decide on Proposition B on the November ballot.

Ultra HD displays are clearly the next big thing as far as display manufacturers are considered, with 3D being suddenly relegated to the status of a secondary feature. During the first two days, we saw Samsung and LG announce gorgeous 55-inch 4K OLED TVs, Panasonic showcase its massive 20-inch Windows 8 table with a 4K display targeted at designers, and LG and Sony announce affordable (comparatively) smaller 4K displays. Ultra high definition displays represent the next radical improvement in display technology, and the good news is that 2013 looking to be the year where it will finally spread its wings.
Yesterday, LG announced a 30-inch monitor with an astounding resolution of 4096 x 2160 pixels. Although, we don't know the price of this little beauty, it will surely put a dent in your pocket. LG is billing the 153 ppi display as a professional monitor aimed at designers and artists. Viewsonic also displayed a 32-inch monitor with a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 that will be shipping towards the end of this year.
Sony on the other hand is displaying a curious prototype that is labelled as a 4K handycam for consumer use. It's not even known if the prototype works since its currently securely locked in a glass cage, but as per The Verge, it records 4K videos using the XAVC open-source format. To be honest, the 4K video recorder sems to be too big and bulky for most consumers.
Last, but not least, Westinghouse stayed true to its word, and unveiled the biggest 4K TV in the world. Westinghouse's 110-inch 4K TV is a good 25 inches bigger than its nearest competition. However, it comes at a price. The world's biggest 4K TV will only be manufactured to order, and will cost $300,000, which is more than ten times the price of 85-inch and 84-inch 4K televisions from Sony and LG respectively.

Before Us traces the history of women's organized petition campaigns
