The Department of Energy issued a record of decision for the West Valley Demonstration Project and Western New York Nuclear Service Center in West Valley, N.Y., that will implement a phased decision-making process to continue the decommissioning and cleanup efforts at the site, according to a recent press release.
The record of decision was published April 19 in the Federal Register.
"This record of decision is a result of incredible teamwork with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, oversight from our regulatory agencies, and substantial input from our community and stakeholders," said Bryan Bower, DOE federal project director. "The completion of the site's environmental impact statement will put the West Valley Demonstration Project on a path to closure."
The record of decision for the final environmental impact statement (EIS) for decommissioning and/or long-term stewardship at the West Valley Demonstration Project and Western New York Nuclear Service Center examined three alternatives for moving forward and chose a two-phased decision-making process.
Under Phase 1, DOE will remove the Main Plant Process Building, the Vitrification Facility, the Remote Handled Waste Facility, the lagoon areas, a number of unneeded facilities, and the contaminated soils under and around these facilities, including the source of the contaminated groundwater plume.
Decisions on Phase 2 decommissioning will be made within the next 10 years. This includes decommissioning on the underground high-level waste tanks and the NRC-licensed Disposal Area. NYSERDA will manage the state-licensed Disposal Area in place. DOE will continue to safely manage the site's few remaining facilities while conducting Phase 1 clean-up efforts and undertaking studies to evaluate the final decommissioning and long-term management plans for the underground tanks and the disposal areas.
DOE will continue to seek public input and participation as it undertakes a National Environmental Policy Act review and decision making process for Phase 2 of the cleanup.

Does a ute with a boot and two more seats qualify as a suitable family SUV?
Looking ahead from the driver's seat of the new Colorado 7 it's hard to notice much difference immediately. The engine and gearbox are the same 2.8-litre turbo diesel and six-speed auto as in the Colorado, and it feels the same.
The engine is not significantly quieter or more refined, either, with a loud diesel drone infiltrating the cabin, but it does do a reasonable job hauling the big car along.
The standard auto is a pretty smooth unit and certainly makes the Colorado 7 a more family-friendly proposition.
There is only one major mechanical difference (at least under the skin) between the ute and the SUV Colorado, and that's the rear suspension. Instead of the leaf springs used in the ute, the 7 gets a multi-link live rear axle to make it more urban-friendly, but still capable of going off-road and towing 3000kg.
Based on our initial drive in and around Melbourne, it's fair to say the new suspension has improved the ride, but not enough to make it as comfortable as the class-leading soft-roaders.
The suspension tends to jitter over bumps and can take a long time to settle after a big bump.
The flipside of that rougher road-ride is the better capability off-road. Holden is pitching the Colorado 7 as a serious off-road machine to distance it from the existing, urban-focused Captiva 7. With standard equipment including four-wheel drive, low range, a limited slip differential and hill descent control, it certainly ticks some key off-roader boxes.
But the biggest change between the ute and the 7 is the interior, which now includes seven seats and a boot.
Holden has equipped the base-model Colorado 7 LT ($46,990 plus costs) with standard Bluetooth connectivity, USB and auxiliary inputs, a multifunction steering wheel and alloy wheels (16 inches on the LT and 18 on the LTZ).
If you step up to the LTZ ($50,490) you also add leather seats, climate-control air-conditioning, an eight-speaker stereo (instead of six) and chrome interior highlights.
The front half of the car is still very much like a ute, with the same hard, grey plastics from the workhorse carried over into the SUV. It doesn't look or feel premium, but it does seem hard-wearing and simple to use.
The front is a little light-on for small item storage spaces, but there is a cover space on the top of the centre console which wins it back some points.
The grey leather seats in the LTZ model we drove were unsupportive, especially around the lower back.
The news improves in the second row with ample leg-room and good headroom. It doesn't feel particularly wide, though, so getting three adults across the rear might be a squeeze, but it would be fine for teenagers.
The second-row seats have a 60/40 split and three child-seat anchorage points on the seat-back.
The third-row seats are arguably even more impressive. With the second-row seats in the most upright (of three positions), which was still comfortable for passengers, there was more than adequate space for two adults to sit comfortably in the rear.
Headroom would be tight for adults taller than 190 centimetres, but for most it would be a comfortable place, even for trips of moderate distances.
Both the second and third row get roof-mounted airconditioning vents. There are cup-holders in the armrest for the second row. The third row gets two cup-holders plus two small storage spaces.
On the downside, with the third row seats in place, boot space is reduced to just 235 litres – only enough room for a couple of soft bags. Drop the third-row seats, and the boot expands to 878L with good width and depth for easy loading.
A rugged seven-seat SUV may sound like a niche, but given the success of the Toyota Prado it's easy to understand why Holden has entered this market (and why Ford and Volkswagen are rumoured to be following suit).
The Colorado 7 doesn't reset the benchmark, and it's not built to spend its life on the school run, but it does offer plenty of space and capability.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'USDA Choice' tag.
So we all know that steaks like to be cooked HOT. I've cooked plenty of steaks this way & as long as they have good marbling, they come out great. This usually means steaks like a Rib Eye in the USDA Choice category at a minimum.
Carrie and I stoked the Egg one eve and whipped out this amazing steak cooked at over 700 degrees in the Egg. Keep in mind that as long as the internal temps in a steak stay around 120 -125 degrees – the meat stays red and juicy inside. When the temps get higher than that, the steak begins to cook through. Your job as a BBQ master is to cook that steak in as little time as it takes to lightly char the exterior & leave a tender pink interior with as little grey around the edges of the pink as possible. Of course if the preference is more of a medium or we done steak -LOWER the temps at which you cook it.
For what is's worth, many steak afficionados love the Medium Rare steak & that is my taste as well…
We used some of the Rub Co. "Santa Maria" product as our base & added butter, garlic & rosemary near the end. I like to add the herbal ingredients late in the cook so that the flame doesn't just burn them off – you can see the coarse garlic & rosemary in the photos.
If you haven't tried this style of steak cooking – it will probably take some practice – everything happens pretty fast. Don't give up, as the reward is all the equal of a Morton's, Ruth's Chris etc. type of steak -except the price! So go fire that BBQ, get your self a great cut of meat and go to work!

SUNY Canton Graduates More than 900 StudentsSaturday, May 19th, 2012
SUNY Canton President Joseph L. Kennedy conferred degrees for approximately 920 students at the College's 104th Commencement Ceremony.
The ceremony was held today, Saturday, May 19th in the Convocation Athletic and Recreation Center, nicknamed Roos House.
"This is my 21st and final commencement at SUNY Canton," Kennedy said. "I'm very proud of today's graduates and I'm honored to spend the day with them and their families. I look forward to further growth and development in the College's academic programs, with the end result of seeing even more students enroll, graduate and launch successful careers in the future."
The President is scheduled to retire on August 31. He said he is keenly interested in future commencement ceremonies as an indicator of the College's ongoing success. "I will always feel a sense of accomplishment when I see SUNY Canton students complete their educations," Kennedy said.
The top five bachelor's degrees awarded, listed in order of popularity, were: management, criminal investigation, health care management, legal studies, and graphic and multimedia design.
The top five associate degrees with the most graduates were nursing, liberal arts, criminal justice, veterinary science technology, and business administration.
Notable honoraries at ceremony included:
- Karen M. Spellacy, professor of economics, received the SUNY Chancellor's Award for Excellence in College Service. Spellacy was awarded for providing dynamic education in her business and economics courses, in addition to her inspirational leadership in a variety of roles. Based on her tremendous service, Spellacy will assume the role of Interim Provost on Sept. 1.
- John F. Conklin, associate professor of nursing, received the SUNY Chancellor's Award for Excellence in Teaching. Faculty members and students have said Conklin demonstrates a deep and genuine concern for his students and helps them to succeed in any way that he can. He also was instrumental in the development of the college's practical nursing certificate program, as well as the online Bachelor of Science in Nursing program.
- SUNY Canton Student Government Association President Daynelle N. Richards, a health care management major from Ozone Park delivered the address on behalf of her fellow graduates. Richards was selected as the recipient of the 2012 David R. Maynard Student Activities Award.
- Kristen B. Roberts, the College's associate director of residence life and residence director of the new Grasse River Suites was honored with the Northstar award. This award is completely determined by the student body to recognize a faculty or staff member. Roberts was selected for making a positive impression on students and their parents with her positive, can-do attitude. She's been a role model for many students and is involved with many student-run organizations. The student government association president presented the award to Roberts.
- State Senator Patricia A. Ritchie was presented with the Honorary Alumna Award from the SUNY Canton Alumni Association for continually supporting and promoting SUNY Canton. She recently backed the College's newest educational options to benefit of both students and the greater North Country Community, and has demonstrated a remarkable interest in the ongoing success of the College and its graduates.
During the week prior to Commencement, the David Sullivan-St. Lawrence Law Enforcement Academy held a special ceremony for more than 20 graduates of the semester-long intensive course. Many of the Academy graduates were sworn in as new officers in area police departments.
Additionally, nearly 90 graduates of SUNY Canton's Nursing program were recognized at a special ceremonial pinning ceremony. Registered Nurses are in high demand, and many of the graduates will immediately start their employment at area hospitals and health-care facilities.

Ten Second Review
The Jeep Renegade is a genuinely smart piece of product design, distilling Jeep's brand values into a smaller package while leaning on the smartest technology the Fiat Group has to offer. This improved version gets revised petrol engine technology, slightly smarter looks and enhanced connectivity. But as before, if you eat squirrel, own a bowling ball and call your first cousin your spouse, chances are you're going to hate it. Otherwise, read on.
Take a respected brand, a fresh and vibrant market segment and a willingness to do something different. Then create from that a product with uncompromising looks, real capability and clever design. The result you'd get certainly wouldn't be ordinary. It wouldn't please traditionalists. No, in automotive terms, what you'd get would be something like this, the Jeep Renegade. At its original launch here in 2015, news that this Renegade was almost entirely based on Fiat's 500X had Jeep die-hards choking on their beer. These people needed to allow for the fact that much had been done with these underpinnings in creation of a tougher, more rugged and very different product. It's certainly one that's attracted widespread interest and now accounts for over 70% of Jeep's UK sales. It's achillies heel was previously an ancient couple of petrol engines, which have now thankfully been dumped as part of the changes made to this smarter, more sophisticated facelifted model.
Driving Experience
The key news with this improved Renegade lies with the changes made beneath the bonnet. The old-tech entry-level normally aspirated 1.6-litre petrol engine of the original model has been replaced by a much more efficient 120hp 1.0-litre unit. And the old inefficient 1.4-litre 134hp MultiAir petrol 1.4 makes way for a new 1.3-litre powerplant, available in 150 and 180hp guises. Ideally, you want to try and stretch to the 1.3 because the base 1.0-litre unit doesn't really have enough pulling power to shove the Renegade along with much conviction. The automatic gearbox that goes with the lower-powered version of the 1.3-litre engine isn't especially slick-changing; the uprated 9-speed auto 'box that goes with the 178hp 1.3 is better. As before, if you're looking at a diesel, there's a 120bhp 1.6-litre Mjet unit or a 2.0-litre Mjet option with either 140 or 170bhp. You'll need the 2.0-litre Mjet diesel if you want your car with 4WD. The car's 4x4 system hasn't changed, incorporating a rear axle disconnect system that switches seamlessly between two and four-wheel-drive for reduced energy loss when 4x4 capability isn't needed, improving fuel efficiency in the process. But the Renegade is more at home on the highway, where refinement is surprisingly good, despite the relatively bluff aerodynamics.
Design and Build
The Renegade has always sold on its styling - and it still will. There are some subtle aesthetic tweaks with this revised model but the main changes lie with the adoption of LED technology for the headlamps and tail lights. As before, the squarical profile features lovely tight overhangs and some very cool detailing. What is particularly interesting is the way the design includes some very traditional Jeep design cues but isn't afraid to twist them a bit into something resolutely modern-looking. That aspect you will either love or hate. Cover up the badges inside the car and, yes, you would probably think you were in a Fiat product, but if you've had a look at the latest Fiat range, that's no bad thing. Jeep says that the fascia's been updated but it's difficult to see many changes apart from the improved Uconnect touchscreen infotainment system, which on top variants features a big 8.4-inch monitor. This has clear menus, sharp graphics and useful shortcut buttons, plus it comes with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so you can use apps from your smartphone (such as Google Maps and Waze) while driving. As for practicality, well it's a bit pinched in the back, but then that comes with the territory when you've got this little length to play with.
Market and Model
In the UK, the Renegade is available in a range comprising four different trim levels - Sport, Longitude, Limited and Trailhawk - equipped with efficient turbo-diesel and petrol engines and available in four-wheel drive or front-wheel drive configurations. Prices sit in the £19,000 to £30,000 bracket. Standard equipment in the well-equipped entry-level Sport includes air conditioning, DAB radio with touchscreen and Bluetooth, electric parking brake, 16-inch alloy wheels, tyre pressure monitoring, and remote central locking. Longitude adds features including 17-inch aluminium wheels, six-speaker audio system, roof rails, body coloured door mirrors and handles, cruise control, and front fog lamps. The Limited version further adds 18-inch aluminium wheels, chromed exhaust tip, Forward Collision Mitigation, heated front seats and steering wheel, leather upholstery, privacy glass and rear parking sensors. In case you were wondering where the Renegade is screwed together, yes, it's from the Deep South. Of Italy though; coming off the same Melfi production line as the Fiat 500X SUV.
Cost of Ownership
The Renegade can't afford to be an expensive car to run, but it rather was in its original petrol forms. This facelifted version does much better thanks to its more modern 1.0-litre three cylinder and 1.3-litre petrol units. The 1.0-litre variant manages 46.3mpg on the combined cycle and 139g/km of CO2. Of course, the ultimate figures you achieve will depend very much on how you drive, something you can monitor and improve if you've downloaded the infotainment system's 'Uconnect LIVE' app onto your smartphone. This gives you an 'eco:Drive' section that enables you to develop your driving style, save fuel and check your car's CO2 emissions in real time. During each trip, 'eco:Drive monitors four driving parameters: acceleration, deceleration, changing gears and speed variation. There's also a 'my:car' feature that allows you to check your fuel level and tyre pressure, choose an assistance service if you have an emergency and be informed if there's anything wrong with your vehicle. What else might you need to know? There's an unremarkable three year / 60,000 mile warranty, though you do get three years of breakdown cover included in the deal. We'd want to opt for the 'Mopar Vehicle Protection' 'Freedom Pack' which extends the warranty to five years and provides competitively priced servicing and assistance plans.

The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA)
The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA), as amended, requires that employers offer employees and their families the opportunity for a temporary extension of health and dental coverage at group rates in certain instances where coverage under the group plan would otherwise end.
See also An Employee's Guide to Health Benefits Under COBRA.
Workers' Compensation Insurance
The Workers' Compensation law requires most employers to provide benefits to eligible employees who have injuries arising out of and in the course of employment. [85.61(7)]
The Workers' Compensation Act is a part of the Iowa Code designed to provide certain benefits to employees who receive injury (85), occupational disease (85A) or occupational hearing loss (85B) arising out of and during the course of their employment. Benefits are payable regardless of fault and are the exclusive remedy of the employee against the employer.
If you suffer a work-related injury or illness you must report it to your supervisor and complete the Grinnell College Workers' Compensation First Report of Injury or Illness form.
Once completed, have your supervisor add their comments and sign. For fast reporting, it is suggested you fax the form to Human Resources at 641-269-4885, and then drop the hard copy in campus mail to Human Resources.
For Workers' Compensation questions, please contact Human Resources, 641-269-4818.
Unemployment Compensation Insurance
The state of Iowa's unemployment compensation law requires that all employees are provided with unemployment compensation insurance coverage.
Visit Iowa Workforce Unemployment Insurance for more information.
Social Security
All employees are covered under the provisions of the federal social security law (FICA - Federal Insurance Contributions Act). FICA consists of two separate taxes that are withheld from your wages: Social Security, which pays for cash benefits to entitled beneficiaries, and Medicare, which pays for hospital benefits for people covered by Medicare when they become entitled.

The good, the bad . . .
TORONTO – While watching Joe Saunders duel fellow lefty Brian Tallent on a very cold Saturday in Canada . .
Howard Kendrick, in the No. 2 hole for the first time this season, powers the eighth pitch of the day by lefty Brian Tallet into the seats in left center for a 2-0 lead following Erick Aybar's five-pitch walk. Kendrick used to hit behind Aybar in the Minors and will be a dream No. 2 hitter with experience. He drives the ball almost as hard to the opposite-field as one of his role models, Derek Jeter, who always offers encouragement when they share the same field — as they did for three days at Yankee Stadium.
Brandon Wood, a terrific young athlete trying maybe a little too desperately to find his way, finally takes his offensive struggles to the field with errors on consecutive plays. He misplays a hop on the carpet, creating one unearned run, then bounces a throw past first baseman Kendry Moralels for another unearned run. These are mistakes Wood does not make when he's feeling in tune with the planet, but that isn't the case at the moment.
There's something terribly unsettling about Rogers Centre these days. It's like watching a horror film alone in an empty theatre on a dark afternoon – and hearing lonely voices screaming and hollering "Lyle!" in the distant reaches. They're all over that other Lyle, Overbay, for his terrible start, and it can't be doing the Blue Jays first baseman any good. I know it isn't doing much for me.
"O Canada," the civilized world's most beautiful anthem, sung by anyone with a decent voice. I used to get chills coming to the old Montreal Forum and hearing the legendary Roger Doucet do his tenor version before Canadiens games. There was something majestic about that voice and that song, unlike anything I've heard since. — Lyle Spencer

i was glad joe did well! It's time for the angels to do better.
I felt bad for Brandon I know he's better than what he showed.
It's tough that they lost Doc but i think they're holding their own pretty well at the moment. It's too bad that the Jays fans lost such a fan favorite. Lyle Overbay was an all star last year! Strange… And yes O Canada is a beautiful anthem.. i kind of hinted that i liked O Canada more than the star spangled banner and my family looked at me strange… 😉
glad you enjoy it too. I have an Angels blog as well! Maybe you can come check it out one day to see if i have a future in sports journalism haha.

Boss: "So, Jim, I got your carving about this new invention of yours called [looks down at the heavy flat slate rock in his arms] pap-par?"
Jim: "It's pronounced 'pay-per'! And yes, I believe it will revolutionize how we keep information!"
Boss: [eyebrow arched] "Is that so?"
Jim: "Yeah! We wouldn't have to keep things on slate or granite or rocks or walls!"
Boss: "Alrighty then, let's see it!"
[Jim pulls out a sheet of paper and hands it to the Boss]
Jim: "Ta da!"
Boss: "Whoa! It's so… thin! And light!"
Jim: "I know! With this, we won't have to carry around heavy tablets! And check this out! [takes the sheet of paper from the Boss's hand] We can use the same ink that we use to paint on it! [starts drawing lines and writing words] And once you are done, you can roll it or fold it for easy storage." [folds it over and hands it back to the Boss]
Boss: "Amazing. Simply amazing."
Jim: "I know!"
Boss: "This is great, Jim! This could change everythi- [the paper tears slightly] What the-"
Jim: "Oh, yeah, the paper is easy to tear. Be careful with that."
Boss: "I see. We'll have to mark that down on the label. 'Use caution: May easily tear.' [apprehensive pause] Is there anything else I should know about this?"
Jim: "There might be some other things that would turn off potential consumers."
Boss: "Like?"
Jim: [sighs] "It's flammable."
Boss: "How flammable?"
Jim: "Quite." [holds up a match to the cover of the page. It lights quickly.]
Boss: "Oh my-"
Jim: [patting out the flame] "Yeah… that will have to go on the label as well. 'Caution: Flammable'"
Boss: [pulling the partially burned page from Jim's hand] "Well, Jim, I think this still has potential. Marketing can handle those drawbacks and we can run that little text at the bottom of the screen for the television ads. So long as we put the warning labels on, we should be in the cl- Oww!" [drops the paper to the floor and pulls his hand to his face]
Jim: "What!"
Boss: "The edge of this pap-par! It- it… cut me! [starts sucking on the paper cut] That really stung!"
Jim: "Look, it's only a scratch! And it goes away quickly!"
Boss: "Oh, so do you want to answer those lawsuits when people cut themselves worse on this? [grimaces at the sheet of paper lying on the floor] Next you'll say is that it was made using chemicals."
Jim: "Not exactly…"
Boss: "But?"
Jim: "It is made from wood pulp. [Boss cocks his head to the side looking at Jim] Which comes from grinding up trees.'"
Boss: "Are you KIDDING me? If the environmentalists get a hold of that fact, they'll have a fit. They'll want to know what kinds of tree are used and how many and where they are coming from and what they are displacing when you cut them down! This is a NIGHTMARE! It tears easily, it catches on fire from the tiniest of flames, the edge can cut you, and now you are telling me that THIS [picks up the torn burnt paper and starts shaking it in the air] is made from TREES? Are you F-ING kidding me? This thing will have a scariest warning label in the HISTORY of the INDUSTRY. There is NO way that ANYONE will BUY this. At least with stone tablets, we just tell people 'Oh, mind your feet if you drop it' and 'Carrying it around is like another exercise workout'. There is a positive spin we can put on tablets. [waves his finger at the paper] There is NOTHING we can SAY about THIS, this, this pap-par that will overcome the inherent DANGER! Who wants to buy something that says 'Warning: Flammable. Easily tears. Edges are sharp and may cut you.' We might as well throw in a 'Do not eat' to round it out! I mean, HONESTLY, how in the HELL are WE supposed to SELL this as a REPLACEMENT to the stone tablet?!?" [Boss stands there a moment, nosily breathing in and out as his anger swells]
Jim: [meekly] "…I can work on it some more."
Boss: [puts his arm around Jim] "Jim, it's a good step. But, it's not ready for prime time. There are just too many potential lawsuits and liabilities at this time. But, I know you're on the right track. Someday, we'll replace these heavy stone tablets. Maybe, you could work on a lighter stone tablet. Strong rock but lighter. Something that won't break your toes when you drop it on your foot. Something that you could either chalk or chisel. That's the future, my boy."
I originally wanted to make this an allegory about libraries, books, and e-readers, but this direction was much funnier in my opinion. =D

2. To not do anything, especially in a situation when one should help. You didn't even move a muscle when I came in with the groceries. A little help next time. The kids have been glued to the TV all day not moving a muscle.
not move a muscle
to remain perfectly motionless. Be quiet. Sit there and don't move a muscle. I was so tired I couldn't move a muscle.
move a muscle
Bestir oneself even slightly. This idiom is usually put negatively, either with implied criticism, as in She won't move a muscle to help get dinner, or not, as in When I saw the deer, I stayed quite still, not daring to move a muscle. It was first recorded in 1889.

In statistics, signal processing, econometrics and mathematical finance, a time series is a sequence of data points, measured typically at successive times spaced at uniform time intervals. Examples of time series are the daily closing value of the Dow Jones index or the annual flow volume of the Nile River at Aswan. Time series analysis comprises methods for analyzing time series data in order to extract meaningful statistics and other characteristics of the data. Time series forecasting is the use of a model to forecast future events based on known past events: to predict data points before they are measured. An example of time series forecasting in econometrics is predicting the opening price of a stock based on its past performance. Time series are very frequently plotted via line charts.

My girl Kat Graham has been giving us some amazing looks recently and her most current red carpet look has to be one of my favorites. Kat Graham attended the 'Only God Forgives' Premiere during the 66th Annual Cannes Film Festival at Palais des Festivals on May 22, 2013 in Cannes, France.
Kat is one of those classic beauties that can pull off just about anything (style-wise), and I think this 40's vintage look is absolute perfection. The shape of the dress along with her hairstyle and make-up couldn't be a better fit together, she is definitely channeling Marilyn Monroe with this look and we think it looks fantastic. What do you guys think?
Keep it up Kat, you always keep us on our fashion toes.

Wait a minute! There's still 2 more weekdays of January, and you still have to finish posting Yelowbelly and Plum in the Snow and we're all waiting for The Space Weed Part 2! For goodness sakes, you have a lot to catch up on...
Oh well, carry on with your mega project I suppose.

Of the articles, George Neville submitted a list of names in his article, Petition of Inhabitants of North Gower for Magistrates in Johnstown District No. 3, in which the men of the township are asking that a magistrate be appointed. Meanwhile, Jim Stanzell provides readers with his Early Bytown Settlers Index, in which over 450 names are listed, and all surnames start with the letter 'M'.
Gloria F. Tubman's Question Answered, More Questions Posed outlines the questions posed by a previous article which showed the relationship between people from Bistrol Township and North Onslow Township in the Pontiac area of Quebec.
Edward Kipp has two articles in this newsletter, and they are – Cemetery Shunpiking 2011 & 2013 and Rathbun-Rathbone-Rathburn Family Reunion 2013.
In the first article, he takes us on a tour of the gravestones of his great-grandparents in New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
He provides a history of the people on the gravestones, as well as a photo of the gravestones.
And the second article, he and his wife, Elizabeth, go to Newport, Rhode Island for the latest family reunion of the Rathbun-Rathbone-Rathburn Family.
He always writes such interesting travel logs that are intertwined with family history. It keeps my interest throughout.
Plus, there's lots of other interesting and informative stuff to read in this issue, as there is in the other issues.
This afternoon, my husband and I will be listening to the live streaming of the Branch's regular monthly meeting – another plus for belonging to the Ontario Genealogical Society, and one of its many branches!

Westside Connections 3 Music and Story, started with author Mona Simpson telling us a little about the pieces we would hear. Beethoven wrote his Sonata No. 9 in A major, Op. 47 "Kreutzer," which was the inspiration for Tolstoy's novella, "Kreutzer Sonata". The novella was the inspiration for Janacek's piece, String Quartet No. 1, "Kreutzer Sonata."
Not being familiar with Janacek's music, the violinist slightly distracted me from the music at the start. When they played their whole bodies moved, feeling the music. When I looked away I found it easier to hear the music more fully. Though by the third movement "Con Moto; Vivo; Andante" I was able to watch and listen. It was that third movement I really enjoyed.It seemed to me, during that section the violin and the cello were having an intense argument which was slightly resolved by the end of the movement. I could feel some deep emotion emanating through Josefina Vergara's violin solo at the beginning of the fourth movement, giving a feeling of sadness or regret of the previous fight.
Between the Janacek piece and the Beethoven piece we once again heard from author Mona Simpson. This time she spoke of herself, and her writing. It made me smile when she said, something to the effect of, "Every writer wishes to be a poet, and every poet wishes to be a musician."
The Beethoven duet between piano and violin proved to be poetic, moving, and incredibly amazing. Jeffrey Kahane is a fabulous classical pianist. In conjunction with Margaret Batjer on violin you could feel the life of the music. Though you generally don't clap between movements, at the end of the first movement people wanted to clap, and a few claps slipped out. "Presto," the third movement, was awe striking. It lived up to its name, fast paced and full of energy. Mr. Kahane's page turner was also very well trained, following the music note by note and even back turning quickly without getting in the way for the repeat.
The Beethoven movements were my favorite of the night. My applause to the series, and I look forward to future concerts.

Variable speed drive to reduce panel space, maximize performance
Ultra-Slim Altivar 32 Drive from Schneider Electric optimizes panel space, reduces wiring, adds functionality to save time and money
Schneider Electric has announced a new variable speed drive, the Altivar 32, which provides a high degree of performance and connectivity by reducing panel space, improving uptime and maximizing machine performance. With its ultra-slim, book-style design and the ability to directly attach a self-protected disconnect, the Altivar 32 allows users to mount it side-by-side and integrate it into tight spaces, minimizing wiring and machine costs.
"The Altivar 32 is the first industrial drive that has the capability to integrate a self-protected disconnect, thereby offering our customers significant time and cost savings," said Ivan Spronk, product marketing manager, Schneider Electric. "In addition, this drive has certified safety functions for safe power removal, safe limited speed and safe stopping, as well as integrated decision capabilities, such as input/output (I/O) event logic, counting and timing functions further reducing panel space and wiring costs."
The drive can operate as the heart of a simple control system and perform functions usually managed by a PLC, which allows users to use Boolean and arithmetical operations, timers, counters, comparators, and short automated sequences to customize the drive to specific machine application and save on installation components. All of these functions can be programmed using Schneider Electric's SoMove software, available for free at www.schneider-electric.us/go/drives.
Designed to operate without the need for encoder feedback, the Altivar 32 drive delivers exceptional speed and torque control for asynchronous or synchronous AC motors. It also features conformal coating to protect circuit boards from dust, moisture and other airborne contaminants, which allows it to be used in harsh environments.
To further enhance the user experience, Altivar 32 is embedded with Bluetooth technology which enables monitoring, viewing and performing machine diagnostics while keeping cabinet doors safely closed. It also includes standard RJ45 connectors for Modbus and CANOpen networks, and onboard HMI and navigation wheel for easy adjustments.
"Challenged by tougher economic conditions, machine builders expect solutions that are easier to use and maintain, but at the same time generate higher return on investment," adds Spronk. "By taking advantage of Altivar 32 drive's multiple innovative features, OEMs can deliver cost-effective solutions, while improving their machine performance."

The aunt of the gunman who unleashed the Connecticut school shooting said she can't understand why her nephew would kill his mother along with 20 children and seven adults in the small town of Newtown, Conn.
"Why these kids? Why these innocent little kids," said 57-year-old Marsha Lanza, while talking to reporters outside her Illinois home Saturday. "That just still baffles me."
Her nephew, Adam, is the 20-year-old man identified as the shooter of a deadly rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Friday. Adam Lanza's mother, Nancy Lanza, was found dead at her Newtown home.
Marsha Lanza, of Crystal Lake, had not seen Adam since he was 3 years old. But she told NBC Chicago her husband visited him in June. She was closer with his mother, Nancy and corresponded with her regularly.
"I lost it," she said about turning the radio on in the car so her son could hear the news. "Because at this point, what I was hearing, was that Nancy was not only gone, but P.J., we called him P.J. his name was Peter, was also gone. And that's just…we loved them."
She was Nancy's sister-in-law by marriage. Their husbands, Michael and Peter, are brothers. Though Nancy divorced Peter, Marsha still stayed in touch with her.
Marsha described Nancy as a good mother and kind-hearted.
"She gave more than people will ever know," she said.
Marsha sent Nancy a Facebook message Friday morning, before she found out about the shooting, and never heard back. She said there was nothing in their correspondence to indicate anything was amiss.
"She never revealed anything that was critical," Marsha said, adding that Nancy would have told her if something was wrong.
As for insight about her nephew, Marsha said he was a bright boy, who was very quiet and interested in computers. She said Nancy had talked with her about home schooling Adam.
"I know she had issues with school," Marsha said of Nancy's frustration with the school her son was attending. "She eventually wound up home schooling him, because she battled with the school district, in what capacity, I'm not 100 percent certain. If it was behavior or learning disabilities, I really don't know. But he was a very, very bright boy. He was smart."
When asked about whether Adam suffered from Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism, Marsha said there had been "chatter about it, but it was never confirmed." She would not answer yes or no to the question.
Marsha also had knowledge of Nancy's guns.
"I think the only reason Nancy may have had them [guns], and for the sake of many more of us in this country, is for self-defense and no other reason," she said. "They were not a violent family."
She added that Peter and Nancy would have sought help for Adam if they suspected any kind of problem.
Her husband Michael, who is in North Carolina, is said to be devastated over the news. He was the last person in their family to see Adam. Lanza said her husband did not notice anything unusual during his visit.

Christine Amsden a friend from the Upper Dales Family History Group has some excellent data on the numbers and ages of children and women working in the lead mines in the Yorkshire Dales. This wonderful photo is from
http://www.mylearning.org/lead-mining-in-the-yorkshire-dales/images/1-548/ and shows The Old Gang Smelt Mill which served a number of mines. The Old Gang Mining Company was a large and important employer. Galena was brought from mines spread all over these hills and some neighbouring valleys to be smelted
Take a look at http://www.dalesgenealogy.com/oldgangworkers.htm and
http://www.dalesgenealogy.com/hurstminers.htm from Christine's site
Part one of the Ashley report 1842 "First Report on Children in the Mines" led to the 1842 Coal Mines Act prohibiting the employment underground of all female labour and boys under ten.
There is also an excellent website at http://www.balmaiden.co.uk/WomenUK.htm
which outlines the many roles of women in pits and those in the Yorkshire Dales
were some of the earliest. Congratulations to the webmaster for superb information:
Although records are often sparse with regards to mining employment pre 20th century in the UK, the most useful records for family history purposes include the 1842 Royal Commission into the Employment of Children at the Mines, From these records the following indexes and have been prepared:
Index for 1842 Commission for Cornwall
Index for 1842 Commission for Cumberland Coal Mines
Index for 1842 Commission for North Durham & Northumberland Coal Mines
Index for 1842 Commission for Durham, Cumberland & Northumberland Lead Mines
Index for 1842 Commission for Forest of Dean Mines

"Unless you've been a fifth-year senior here, you don't know. You didn't live it, you didn't feel it, you didn't see the pain, you didn't hear the anguish, you didn't hear the hate. There was a time we got booed by you guys, and that hurts."
"But the reality is, this is Michigan. We come back, and we never stop. We're a team that recovers, we're at team that continues and there's nothing that can stop Michigan -- absolutely nothing in the world.
"There's no defense, there's no offense, there's no other team, no Ohio State, no Michigan State -- there's no other team in the country that can stop us, and that's why I came here to Michigan.

Britney Spears has already missed a visit with her kids!
I honestly don't know what is wrong with this girl! Britney Spears was scheduled to have a visit with her kids but didn't show up.
Life & Style Weekly is reporting that Britney Spears was supposed to get her first, supervised visitation with her boys, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, on the morning of Oct. 4 — three days after she last saw them.
But an insider tells Life & Style that things tragically fell apart because of a faulty intercom! The night before, "She checked into the Beverly Wilshire hotel. But early that morning, she realized it wouldn't be right to have her first visit with the boys in a hotel. She needed to see them at home, with their things around them," says the insider.
"She and Alli [Sims] headed to Brit's Malibu house. They went to sleep as soon as they got there. Brit was up in plenty of time to prepare for the boys' visit at 10 a.m. "But she waited, and waited, and they didn't show up. Alli's cellphone rang, and it was Kevin [Federline's] people, saying that the boys were going back to Kevin because she hadn't answered the intercom at the gate!"
Brit didn't realize the intercom wasn't working. She begged them to bring the boys back. But they wouldn't. She was devastated that they wouldn't turn around."
What do you think??? Do you think she really didn't hear the intercom? It sounds fishy to me!!

Britney Spears has a breakdown in public!
Us Magazine is reporting that Britney Spears had an emotional breakdown in public yesterday...Britney Spears looked distressed while running errands in L.A. following a judge's decision allowing her only supervised visits with her sons Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1.
During runs to Ralph's Supermarket in L.A. and a local Starbucks, the 25-year-old was seen clutching her Yorkie terrier, London, while crying in anguish.
She appeared to be in better spirits later while enjoying a light dinner of quesadillas and a mango margarita with friend Sam Lutfi at Casa Escobar in Malibu .
Her good mood didn't last long, however. After she climbed into the passenger seat of the car, she began sobbing uncontrollably.
When will things start to look up for her?? I hope soon!

This has been one great week in Chicago and at Eli's. Starting with Mayor Daley's wager of Eli's Cheesecake on Saturday morning and the great victories by the Sox at home on Saturday and Sunday, the excitement continued with the Sox late night victory over the Astros on what was by then Wednesday.
Eli's is delighted that our distinguished Senators from Illinois, Durbin and Obama, have featured Eli's in their wager with Senators Hutchison and Cornyn of Texas. That wager is looking pretty good right now for Illinois and we look forward to a Sox victory and World Championship this evening.
Illinois vs. Texas: Senators bet on World
WASHINGTON – Illinois Senators Barack Obama (D-IL) and Dick Durbin (D-IL) have challenged Texas Senators Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) and John Cornyn (R-TX) to a friendly, bi-partisan wager on the outcome of the 2005 World Series Championship.
The "red state vs. blue state" match-up intensifies the already heated rivalry. The U.S. Senators representing the World Series Champions will receive a basket of products from the opposing team's home state.
In the event that the Astros win, Obama and Durbin will begrudgingly provide the Texas Senators with Al's Italian beef, Polish sausages and Vienna beef hot dogs. For dessert, they will offer Chicago-made Tootsie Rolls and Eli's Cheesecake.
By winning the National League Championship last Wednesday, the Houston Astros became the first baseball team from Texas to go to the World Series. Three days earlier, the White Sox won the American League Championship for the first time in nearly half a century. If victorious, the Chicago players will be the first White Sox to wear the Championship ring in 88 years. Both teams are eager for a tickertape parade.
"We are all extremely proud of what the White Sox have accomplished and everyone in Chicago will be cheering when they bring the championship home," said Obama. "And as I've told my wife many, many times, the White Sox are 1 and 0 in games where I throw out the first pitch. So all I'm saying is that if Ozzie calls, the arm is rested and ready."
"No matter who they rooted for all season long, today every baseball fan in Illinois is pulling for the White Sox as they attempt to bring home to Chicago the city's first World Series championship in 88 years," said Senator Durbin.
"I have so many fond memories of cheering for the Astros as a reporter and a state representative from Houston," said Sen. Hutchison. "I remember when the Astros, then named the Colts, beat the Chicago Cubs in 1962 during their first Major League game and when Nolan Ryan became the first player to reach 4,000 strikeouts in a career at the Astrodome in 1985. Now the Astros have reached a new milestone in their history by winning the National League Championship and are going to the World Series. Our Houston Astros have made all Texans proud by winning the National League pennant and giving the Lone Star State a team to cheer for in the World Series."
"I'm confident that the Astros' World Series debut will be one to remember. When the pressure's on, this ball club knows how to get the job done," U.S. Sen. John Cornyn said. "I'd like to congratulate the players, the team's leadership, and all the fans in Houston and across the state."

Director Review
A Director Review (DR) permit is an administrative permit issued by the Planning Director that avoids the time and expense of a public hearing before the Planning Commission. Director Review permits typically are issued when sufficient standards are contained in the Mono County General Plan, when projects are minor and noncontroversial, and when exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Director Review permits may be processed with or without notifying adjacent property owners. A DR permit without notice takes approximately one to three weeks to process. A DR permit with notice takes approximately four to six weeks, which typically includes a 10-day review and comment period.

Duel Specs
Freyja is Hawt
How do I kill Arthas
I didn't want to, but apparently there are GoogledGnome fans out there.
With 3.1 in PTR, there are some Google searches that are bound to come my way. Just to help the probability gods, I will write about them in advance.
Duel specs
Bejewelled specs?
Did you mean bejewelled specs? Man that in-game mini-game just got a lot more complicated. I would suggest referring to your Guild forums, they are bound to want you to spec certain ways depending on the flightpath in question.
Dueling specs?
I suggest Banjo. That way when the Devil comes down to Georgia you are ready and waiting at the Crossroads.
Maybe you meant PvP dueling specs. Ahhh why bother, you know you are crap 1-on-1. Stick to AV calling down fiery doom from a distance.
Dual spectacles?
Bifocal lenses maybe? Some Engineering goggles? My suggestion is go new skool and get some laser correction.
Find yourself a skilled Gnome Arcane practitioner, none of those spec swapping flavor of the month Mages mind you. No you want a diehard Arcane Mage to burn your retinas out, otherwise you risk two new eye sockets in the back of your head.
Dual Specs?
What, fire isn't your one and only true love? Pffft, I have no time for you two timing, mechanostrider keys in the bowl, spec swapping fools!
If you must spend the money on two specs, make sure they are identical! I will allow different gear and glyph sets.
Freyja is Hawt
Funny that. I once had a real life love by the name of Freyja.
She was hawt!
So hot that I spent hundreds, no thousands of dollars in the bar she was a barmaid. From 10pm till 6am I would woo her. But like all the fickle Norse gods, she never gave me more thought than to know my drink order.
How do I kill Arthas
Can you kill Arthas?
I think he has more lives than an enchanted cat.
No, I don't think you can kill him, but maybe you can piss him off enough that he will leave you alone.
Hold a party, but don't invite him.
You won't need to, he is everywhere, he will know.
Hold it between Hillsbrad and South Shore. Make sure it's a big techo DOOF DOOF party, he will hate that. He will turn up in his 80's shoulderpads with his slab of beers and bottle of Southern Comfort and will go and sulk in a corner.
He will probably try to crack onto a few Elves, which of course will be his ultimate undoing, and he will run home to Mummy after his 10th rejection (though not before having a messy chunder behind the Alterac Mountains, and all over his best party shoes).
LF enchants.
Finding a Party To hard? Well, knowing what pisses me off, those incessant whispers, so throw a few back at him.
After all, he wants to constantly whisper in our ear, so let's get our guildies together and spam him.
[You] /w Arthas: LF enchant
[Arthas] /w You: Sure, What you want?
[You] /w Arthas: don't know, what can you do for belts?
[Arthas] /w You: Can't do belt enchants!
[You] /w Arthas: noob! How about trinkets, what you got for trinkets?
[Arthas] /w You: Can't do trinket enchants!
[You] /w Arthas: noob! Go visit a trainer! Give me a back enchant then.
[Arthas] /w You: Got the mats?
[You] /w Arthas: noob! You don't have them? OK, just wait there while I check AH, log onto Alts etc. Bbk in 20 minutes – don't move and don't serve anyone else!
…20 minutes go by…
[You] /w Arthas: OK back, give it to me big boy!
[Arthas Enchants Cloak]
[You] /w Arthas: thxcyabye
[Arthas] /w You: Hey, what about a tip buddy?
[You] /w Arthas: STFU noob! See You in the BG… Not!
Ignore him and he will go away
Just ignore him and he will go away.
All bully boys get tired of chasing people around eventually.
The stalking will stop, the whispers will stop.
Just go and grab a slab of beers and a bottle of Southern Comfort and wait him out.
Crystal ball Megs
Thanks to Out of Mana "I've got crystal balls and aren't afraid to use them" Megs for the inspiration for this GoogledGnome
Gnomer and Out!

Maybe taking it slow is part of Chargers' plan
Through the myopic prism of March, the home team looks weak.
And worse still by comparison.
Not only are the Chargers not doing anything flashy, their main rivals are getting splashy.
The Kansas City Chiefs started weeks ago, getting a new starting quarterback and locking up their left tackle and best receiver. The Denver Broncos, already two-time defending champions of the AFC West, are now pouring copious amounts of salt on the gashes in the Chargers' pride.
The one free agent prize the Chargers wanted to keep was guard Louis Vasquez. Not only did he sign with another team a couple hours into the new league year on Tuesday, he signed with the Broncos.
On Wednesday, Denver signed Wes Welker. Not just any receiver to help ease Peyton Manning into retirement, but a guy who has averaged 112 receptions and six touchdowns over the past six seasons – and who began his career as a Charger, as is lamented here at every possible opportunity.
The Chargers? They went with Plan B at cornerback after Jerraud Powers signed with the Arizona Cardinals. Late Wednesday, they signed Derek Cox, who has started 45 games but has also had injury trouble almost every one of his four NFL seasons.
Cox is not guaranteed to be an upgrade or even status quo at the position. The Chargers were looking for a cheap fill-in.
Landing a cornerback followed the signings of a kicker, a long snapper, a guard and tackle who might be backups and claimed a running back off waivers.
Folks, it has long been my penchant to caution against letting March and April's perceived success being your lone predictor for real success September through January.
But, man, this could get extremely ugly.
Fact is, though, what is happening should not be a surprise.
The Broncos embarked on improving the best team in the AFC West with cap space to do so. Chargers are trying to rebuild a middling team with limited cap space.
Don't blame the Chargers' relative inactivity on new General Manager Tom Telesco, though I'm having a hard time seeing what his plan is other than to take two years to challenge for a return to the postseason.
(I say that with full knowledge that Telesco was the No.2 personnel man with the Indianapolis Colts, who in 2012 went 11-5 while constantly retooling a roster hamstrung by dead money.)
Telesco acknowledged the Chargers were not going to be able to pay Vasquez the $5.875 million a year he got from the Broncos. But wherever that money is going has not been manifest yet.
In the short term, all he's done by allowing Vasquez to leave was say to Chargers players that they won't be rewarded.
However, this is not Telesco's mess. He's just charged with rearranging it.
The flop of last year's Chargers free agent class not only hurt on the field in 2012, it is hindering them in the negotiating table in 2013. It is actually keeping them away from said table.
Maybe it's for the best.
Telesco and head coach Mike McCoy cautioned right from the start that remaking this roster would not be a matter of adding water and stirring. They've said all along that there is a lot to do.
I wrote the other day regarding the Chargers that patience is a virtue except when it's plodding. I'll remind you now that quick action is a good attribute to have unless it means settling.
Point is, the Chargers believe they have a lot of work to do, so they're not going to commit big to a guy they don't think deserves it.
I love Louis Vasquez. But were we grading him on a curve? Absolutely we were. Saying he was the Chargers' best offensive lineman is like saying I'm the best-dressed sportswriter. Very little competition.
The Chargers balked at Vasquez's side saying they never received an offer. Whatever semantics are involved, the bottom line is that the Chargers did not want Vasquez all that badly.
"He's a good player," Telesco said Tuesday night. "But we'll be fine."
Do you really want him signing a guy just because it's the best they have? Or do you want him building for the future?
It certainly doesn't look good right now. But it's only March and it's only two months into the Telesco regime.
But if they sign Eric Winston and draft a left tackle in the first round, it's a guarantee Chargers fans will be singing Telesco's praises.
And if not, the way it's looking now, the Chargers will not only have cap space in 2014, but also a really high draft pick.
