House and Senate Reach Agreement on CAPTA
- 2003 27 May
Members of the U.S. House and Senate met in conference on May 22 and approved the Keeping Children and Families Safe Act of 2003. Amendments recommended by the Home School Legal Defense Association remain intact.
"The passage of HSLDA's recommended amendments to the Keeping Children and Families Safe Act is a giant step forward for American families," says HSLDA President Mike Smith.
The Keeping Children and Families Safe Act reauthorizes and modifies the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) and related law. These programs generally support activities to prevent and treat child abuse and family violence.
According to the conference committee press release, the conference agreement represents: [A] comprehensive bill designed to both prevent child abuse and family violence before it occurs and treat instances of child abuse or maltreatment with community-based partnerships and best practice treatment methods.
HSLDA believes those who abuse children should be severely punished. Yet HSLDA has assisted many innocent families who are wrongfully accused of child abuse, and prosecuted by overzealous social workers.
"Provisions of the CAPTA reauthorization bill now protect innocent families," says Mr. Smith. "Social workers must now tell parents the nature of the allegations against them. States must now train social workers to consider the rights of those parents under investigations."
In November 2001, HSLDA Senior Counsel Chris Klicka testified before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce Subcommittee on Select Education about this legislation. Klicka convinced the subcommittee to add two significant amendments to protect families' due process rights when faced with a social worker investigation.
The conference committee pointed out its agreement with HSLDA's position stating: The bill appropriately addresses a growing concern over parents being falsely accused of child abuse and neglect and the aggressiveness of social workers in their child abuse investigations. It increases public education opportunities to strengthen the public's understanding of the child protection system and appropriate reporting of suspected incidents of child maltreatment. It also fosters cooperation between parents and child protective service workers by requiring caseworkers to inform parents of the allegations made against them, and improves the training opportunities and requirements for child protective services personnel regarding the extent and limits of their legal authority and the legal rights of parents and legal guardians.
The final vote on the Keeping Children and Families Safe Act is likely to take place in June 2003.

Skyforce Fall Short After Furious Comeback
Being down 16 points with eight minutes left in the fourth quarter is one thing. Putting together a 23-8 run to take the lead just over five minutes later is quite another. Still another is letting it slip away as the Los Angeles D-Fenders stood tall in a 122-117 win over Sioux Falls Saturday night at the Toyota Sports Center.
Terrence Williams hit a three point shot with 8:10 left to make the score 108-92 for the D-Fenders (13-10). With 2:41 left, the Skyforce (15-9) had their first lead since early in the second quarter 115-113. A baseline jumper by James Southerland with 44.8 left put the lead back in the Los Angeles side of the ledger to stay.
Spearheading the attack for Sioux Falls was Justin Hamilton's 33 points and 18 rebounds and 2 blocks for his 10th double-double of the season while Tre Kelley provided 27 counters 8 boards and 6 assists in his fourth straight contest with at least 20 points. Los Angeles got their cue from C.J. Williams who posted 27 points and the aforementioned Southerland with 24 points as seven D-Fenders scored in twin figures.
Sioux Falls returns home for a Thursday night engagement with the Iowa Energy. Los Angeles will entertain the Texas Legends on Monday for their next tussle.

Media release –
South Australia
Census job opportunities in the Fleurieu Peninsula24 March 2014 | SA/51
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has announced the creation of over 100 short-term jobs in the Fleurieu Peninsula, to support a Census field test in the lead up to the 2016 Census of Population and Housing.
South Australia Regional Director, Dean Bowley, said Census field staff play a critical role in the quality and accuracy of the data collected in the Census.
"In 2016, field staff will perform a different role than they have traditionally played in the Census, but they will be just as important," Mr Bowley said.
The ABS is changing the way it conducts the Census in 2016, with more than 65 per cent of households expected to participate online.
"The ABS will be using more technology in the 2016 Census, and as a result, Census field staff will too," Mr Bowley added.
Census field staff are required for a variety of short-term supervisory and non-supervisory jobs between April and September 2014. These non-office jobs require work in urban, rural and remote communities of the Fleurieu Peninsula.
The rates of pay range from $20 to $34 (including casual loading) per hour, plus allowances.
Around 10 Census Area Supervisors and 90 Census Field Officers will be hired, throughout the Fleurieu Peninsula.
Census Area Supervisors will train, lead and supervise a team of Census Field Officers, and perform routine clerical and other operational tasks. Census Field Officers deliver Census materials, conduct personal interviews and make follow-up house calls.
Applicants must be at least 18 years old, be an Australian citizen, and able to commit between 25 to 35 hours a week, including days, evenings, weekends and holidays as required. They will need a driver's licence and access to a vehicle in some areas.
Applicants must be computer literate and ideally have a home computer with access to the internet.
"Working on the Census is a wonderful opportunity for everyday Australians to contribute to their community," Mr Bowley said.
Applicant Information Kits are available from the ABS website, and candidates can apply online at www.abs.gov.au/careers

An institutional review board (IRB) is an independent committee made up of medical and nonmedical members, such as physicians, statisticians, and community advocates. It ensures that a clinical trial is ethical and that the rights of study participants are protected.
All institutions that conduct or support biomedical research involving people, by U.S. government regulation, must have an IRB that initially approves and periodically reviews the research.
An IRB reviews and approves protocols, informed-consent forms, physician credentials and eligibility, and other patient materials. The role of an IRB is to work closely with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to make sure that patient safety is the main priority of a clinical trial.

by Lady Mary of Montevale
Features Reporter, Pennsic Independent
Virtually every single item on display in Monday's annual A&S Exhibit in the Barn was a labor of love.
Of love and persistence, and perhaps in some instances, a moment or two spent wondering "Why did I ever start this?"—which has long since been replaced by pride in one's workmanship and artistry. Even a project which is a few hours short of completion merits display, as evidenced by the pieces of baronial regalia for the Barony of the Flame exhibited by Baroness Camilla de la Reynaude (Middle).
One red glove, its cuff banded with several repetitions of the baronial device, was finished. Her Excellency modeled it for me. The second glove is yet a few fingers shy of complete "glovedom," but the set will be ready in time for Midrealm court on Thursday. Fellow knitters will appreciate the work that went into the gloves even more when they learn the gauge for the yarn is 17.5 stitches to the inch, and that the gloves were knit using five size 0000 (1mm) double point needles.
Another item for which the details of production boggle the mind is the Byzantine set of headdress, collar, and pallium which Lord Corwyn MacCamie (Calontir) is quick to tell the inquisitive took him six years to complete because of all the semi-precious stones which form the decorative patterns on the three pieces had to be sewn on by hand.
How many pieces?
On the headdress there are 3,000 pearls. On the collar: 4,700 2mm semi-precious stones of 27 different kinds. On the pallium: 7,655 pearls and 6,730 of the 2mm stone. Do the arithmetic. Sewn on one at a time. Six years. Think about it.
Stopping to examine each individual exhibit and speak to each exhibitor in the Barn might take as long as Lord Corwyn's project. Thus what follows is only a small sample of what could be seen on Monday.
Ose Silverhair (East) has been in the SCA for only eighteen months. She displayed her experiments in nalbinding in which she tried out various stitches with a variety of weights of yarn. A 3-section display board showed clear explanations for each of the stitches as well as two or three samples apiece from various kinds of yarn.
Baroness Maigret of Carrigart, OP (East) only knits in the evenings, so she was able to progress at a rate of about an inch per hour on two pairs of stockings in the manner of Eleanora of Toledo's grave stockings. The red pair on display were knit of silk, the white pair of wool. It took about 30 hours to complete a single stocking. She followed a set of instructions written by Baroness Camilla de le Reynaude (of the baronial gloves described above) that has been published worldwide. Just do a search on "Eleanora of Toledo's stockings."
The current Baroness of Storvik (Atlantia), Janina Krakowska, displayed the baronial heraldic cloak which she wore at Sunday's opening ceremonies on which she had embroidered a scene depicting the founding of Storvik about 35 years ago. She also displayed what she called a humor piece: a muslin bottle carrier, lined with insulating wool, in which one could carry (back in the day) a bottle of Pennsic chocolate milk. The outside was embroidered in the style of the Bayeux Tapestry with an image of Cooper's Store and a young Norman departing, carrying his bottle of chocolate milk and his bag of ice.
A very eye-catching and beautiful gown was made of white and black wool by Lady Odile de Brienne (Middle). Lined with silk, the gown is based on the blue gown in the April illustration in the Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry.
Also inspired by medieval sources was an oil painting on board by Lambert (Middle), done in the styles of Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel. Using a favorite theme of medieval iconography, "Cynnabar's Fighters" shows the Baron and Baroness of Cynnabar and several other baronial worthies in a large cauldron set over a blazing fire.
Lady Elsa de Lyon (East) used French sources to create the illumination on a Pelican scroll. The general design was based on a French book of hours from Rouen (1500), while the fencers portrayed on the scroll were from The Art of Fencing (1595) and the archers came from Froissart's Chronicles (15th c.).
Baroness Sfandra Dmetrieva Chernigova (East)'s persona served as motivation when she created a married woman's headgear in 14th c. Novgorod style. The fabric used, cotton upholstery velvet, was the closest in appearance to period silk velvet because of its short, dense pile. Lined with linen, the headgear has 12 oz. leather as stiffening because of the weight of the many pearls used in the ornamental decoration.
Mistress Maudelyn Godelinva Taillour (Meridies) found herself beginning to work with fiber as an offshoot of the costuming work for which she received her Laurel when she needed accurate accessory pieces for her Anglo-Saxon garb. On Monday she displayed completed items made using sprang: an Arden Mose woman's cap and a reproduction Skrydstrup cap, a 14th c. grave find which might have been worn by a man. During the exhibit she worked on another Arden Mose cap, this one of blue finger-weight wool, using a frame also based on late Viking archeological finds.
Popular with many visitors to Monday's exhibit was the display of "Pigment Mythbusters" by Atlantian scribe Lady Lavia Zanna. All of the supposed facts displayed were things people have told her about period scribal supplies which she believes are not true. For example, she is 90% certain that the pigment Indian Yellow was not obtained by feeding certain animals a diet consisting only of mangoes.
Lord Corwyn Ravenwing (East) began painting pottery reproductions about a year ago. He does not throw the pots; he only paints them. On display in the Barn were an Aramaic incantation bowl (4th to 7th c.), an Iranian painted bowl, (10th c.), and a piece of Teano ware from the 4th c. BC.
Every year, the A&S exhibit serves as a delight for the eye and a source of inspiration for newcomers and SCA veterans alike who want to return home from Pennsic to begin A&S projects of their own.

Dover, NH — Planet Fitness has recently been approached by two groups with offers to buy World Gym, Planet Fitness CEO Mike Grondahl confirmed in July. One of the groups was led by Mike Uretz, the former World Gym CEO and president who sold World Gym to Planet Fitness in 2006. Planet Fitness, Dover, NH, has not been able to come to an agreement with either group.
"I have a very strong attachment to World Gym, and if the opportunity presents itself to where I can make a difference in the company on some level, I'd be very interested in it," Uretz says.
When contacted before press time, Uretz said there had been no progress in discussions of the sale. Uretz did acknowledge that some World Gym franchisees have contacted him about buying back the company.
"I don't want to make it seem like they've come to me like I'm some messiah," Uretz says. "It's not like that at all. They just want to have a clearer picture of where the company is going. The guy who bought it [Grondahl], in my opinion, is one of the smartest guys that ever opened a gym. I haven't changed my mind a bit about that. But I don't know whether or not all the moving parts are fitting together."
Grondahl would not disclose the asking price for World Gym, but he says, "We won't be making any money on the deal."
Despite the talks with the two groups — one of which is from Asia — Planet Fitness does not have a formal book out on World Gym and has not been actively shopping it around, Ben Midgley, president of World Gym, says. However, Grondahl says Planet Fitness will be marketing World Gym soon.
The main reason for selling World Gym is its "less-than-stellar performance," Grondahl says. At the time of Planet Fitness' purchase, 295 World Gym clubs were open, but now just 190 are open, Grondahl says.
"A handful changed over to Planet," Grondahl says. "The bulk of them we got rid of for different reasons, whether they owed us money or weren't paying for the right amount of franchises. The organization was very loose when we bought it, and when we tried to tighten it up, I think that caused a lot of the contraction."
Grondahl adds that he misread World Gym franchisees, many of whom did not fully comply with the philosophy of Planet Fitness. That was never more evident than at an information forum held last year in Las Vegas, attended by both Planet Fitness and World Gym franchisees, in which some World Gym franchisees left frustrated that their questions were still not answered.
"I think that a lot of the [World Gym] franchisees — not all of them — are more interested in owning a business than they are in making money," Grondahl says. "Right from the very beginning, we misread the situation by thinking that the World Gym franchisees would be as excited about us as we were about them, and it turned out not to be the case."
One of the franchisees who was at the conference in Las Vegas was Manny Kaye, who owns a World Gym in Monrovia, CA. Kaye had not been aware that World Gym is up for sale but was not surprised to hear the news, adding that he has had trouble communicating with the corporate office.
"They know how to do Planet Fitness," Kaye says. "They don't know how to do World Gym. They're two different entities. That's why a lot of people were showing a lot of frustration."
The World Gym 1440 All Axcess 24-hour key-card clubs have provided a boost to the company. Grondahl says about 40 of the All Axcess clubs are in operation.
"That's a very promising proposition," Grondahl says. "It's really too bad that we don't have the time to really develop that market. There's a lot of money to be made on that side of the game."
The potential sale of World Gym could mean a shift in responsibilities for Midgley at the company. Midgley, hired last year from 24 Hour Fitness, says he could serve as an executive vice president at Planet Fitness. In the meantime, he'll maintain his focus on World Gym.
"You'd be nuts to leave this company," Midgley says. "It would just be a simple reorganization."
"We're not walking away from World on any level," he adds. "We're going to support these guys as much as we can until, when and if, a transaction happens. It just depends on when that time comes. Long term, World's got a great future. Internationally, the brand has tremendous value."
After the sale of World Gym, which Grondahl says he hopes will occur by the end of this year, the company would then focus its attention back on its bread and butter, Planet Fitness. Grondahl says about 230 Planet Fitness clubs are open and another 600 clubs are pre-sold. During pre-sale in February 2007, the Planet Fitness in Middleton, NY, sold 1,206 memberships in one day, 548 of them online — both company records.
Last year, Planet Fitness generated $48 million in revenue, a 58 percent increase from 2006, according to numbers the company provided to Club Industry's Fitness Business Pro for the magazine's annual Top 100 clubs list. Planet Fitness did not provide financial numbers for World Gym, however.
"Planet Fitness is just growing through the roof, and World Gym has become a distraction for us," Grondahl says. "Nobody likes to lose money. It certainly didn't work out the way we had hoped. Sometimes you learn more by your losses than by your wins. At least that's what they say."

Though I often refer others to Sun/Oracle's Java tutorials and use them frequently myself, I occasionally hear complaints that the tutorials are unfriendly and hard to understand. I hadn't had a similar experience with the tutorials myself until I recently tried to use them to understand Key Bindings. The examples provided by the Sun/Oracle tutorials were over-complicated, clouding the actual Key Binding mechanics, and contained references to other tutorials that were important to understanding Key Bindings but were not provided in a way that showed their relationship to Key Binding. In effect, there seemed to be critical pieces missing in the way the fairly simple concept of Key Bindings was presented.
This tutorial is the result of 2 days of struggle with the Sun/Oracle tutorials and other sources from the web that were not much better. In fact, I don't cite any other sources. While I may have looked at other sources, any contributions they may have made to my eventual understanding of Java Key Bindings were purely accidental. Along the path to Key Binding enlightenment, the thought crossed my mind that this could be a good tutorial topic, but after I'd completed the 2-day struggle, I thought, "What was the big deal?" and criticized myself soundly for being so dense. Even so, I decided that completing the tutorial might help someone similarly affected with a Key Bindings block.
Here's a link to the Sun/Oracle Tutorial on Key Binding:
I also used the following Sun/Oracle Tutorial, "How to Use Actions:"
Purpose of Key Bindings:
Paraphrased from the Sun/Oracle Tutorial on Key Bindings: the purpose of Key Binding is to provide a way of programming responses to individual keys typed by a user. Some examples of when key bindings are appropriate:
- To provide keyboard access to custom component. For example, you might want the custom component to react when it has the focus and the user presses the Space key,
- To override the behavior of an existing key binding. For example, if your application normally reacts to the F2 key in a particular way, you might want it to perform a different action or ignore the key press entirely.
- You want to provide a new key binding for an existing action. For example, you might feel strongly that Control-Shift-Insert should perform a paste operation.
The Code in the Key Binding Demo:
The code provided below is heavily commented, adequately explaining the Key Binding example, but the following highlights are provided:
Lines 47 - 59, method main(): The main() method creates a simple JFrame, mainFrame, to which a JPanel, created in the makePanel() method, is added to provide the functionality needed to show the Key Binding demo. When the program is first run, the mainFrame will display an empty JTextField and a single JButton, "Enter." The JTextField initially has focus so that keyboard presses will result in data being entered into the JTextField. If the Enter key is pressed or the Enter button is selected, the JTextArea will request focus and any data entered into the JTextField will be selected or highlighted. Since any additional data typed will replace the existing data in the JTextField, this feature provides the program a way to easily accept multiple values from the user without requiring his or her hands to leave the keyboard.
Lines 61 - 95 contain the makePanel() method which creates the JPanel, mainPanel, that will be shown in the demo's mainFrame. In addition to the JTextField and the JButton, the makePanel() method creates an ActionListener, buttonListener, and an Action, enterAction. buttonListener is added to the JButton, and enterAction is used to define what will happen when the Enter key is pressed. Then, most importantly, makePanel() provides the glue that binds a key press to a component of the JPanel, but which component?
One might think that since the program's reaction to a press of the Enter key is to be the same as its reaction to selecting the JButton, Enter, then the Key Binding should occur between the Enter key and the Enter button, but that's not the case. Since the JTextArea has the program's focus except for the very short time that the JButton is pressed, the Key Binding is actually established between the JTextArea and the Enter key. Then when the Enter key is pressed, the program can react as though the JButton, Enter, had been selected.
The real work of binding a key to the component occurs in lines 78 and 83. Line 78 retrieves the JTextField's Input Map and adds an entry for the Enter key called, "doEnterAction." Then line 83 retrieves the component's Action Map and pairs "doEnterAction" to the Action, enterAction. As I note in the comment preceding line 88, the single statement, dataField.setAction( enterAction ); results in the same effect as lines 78 and 83, but this approach is limited to a single pairing of an Action to the component in addition to any ActionListeners that may be added to the component.
Lines 99 - 113 define the class EnterAction. An instance of this class is used to specify what what happens when the Enter key is pressed. Line 105 sends the String "The Enter key has been pressed" to the standard output, and line 109 stimulates the JButton, enterButton, to react as though it had been pressed by calling the doClick() method. In this way, the response to the Enter key is exactly the same as clocking on the enterButton, with the exception of the output to the console.
Lines 117 - 132 define the ButtonListener. An instance of this class is added to the JButton, enterButton, to specify what is to happen when the button is clicked. Line 123 sends a message to the standard output to let the user know that the button was clicked. Line 127 requests that focus be returned to the JTextField from the JButton, and Line 128 selects the text existing in the JTextField.
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; import javax.swing.AbstractAction; import javax.swing.Action; import javax.swing.JButton; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JTextField; import javax.swing.KeyStroke; /* File: KeyBindingExample.java * * Description: This class was created to provide a simple example of the * application of KeyBinding to a Swing component. In this * example, a JTextField and JButton are displayed on a JPanel in * a JFrame.

And that's it. If you run the program, you'll see that pressing the Enter key and clicking the Enter button have exactly the same effect, except you'll see different results in your standard output to reflect which control was activated. Now that you see how simple it is, I'm sure you're wondering, "What's the big deal?" I admit it, I'm a little slow.
Things to try or do to increase your knowledge:
1. Add a key binding to a Swing component in one of your existing designs.
2. Replace an existing "standard" key binding in one of your existing designs. For example, replace Ctrl-X as the standard "Cut" command for a text component with another key combination of your choosing.
3. Research the JComponent's 3 Input Maps and single Action Map and understand when each applies.
4. Find and bookmark a list of keystroke names as a ready reference.
Let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Dallas County Black Foot Soldiers (DCBFS ) have issued a statement condemning the apparent violent Holocaust denial of seventy six year old reparations offender Nancy Harris and hailing protester Matthew Johnson a "hero" in his stand to hold Harris accountable for the unrestituted for race crimes her kind committed and commit against black Americans.
"The cotton fields generations of our ancestors toiled in laying the foundation by which this savage and white supremacist nation remains prosperous as a result of were hot too, bitch!"
According to white media reports, Harris was doused with flammable liquid and set on fire during a robbery Sunday at the Fina Gas Station on the corner of Broadway and Colonel Drive where she works.
Dallas County Soldiers sources, however, assert that Harris is a flagrant reparations offender, Fina is a historically racist corporation and note that she and the store were on their 2012 list of businesses and people peaceful reparations protests are to be staged against.
DCBFS believe Johnson identified himself as a reparations protester and that Harris turned the protest violent. Although contacts are declining comment on how their theory of how the gasoline came into use and the fire was set, they believe Harris' violence forced Johnson into a position where he was forced to defend himself. "The cotton fields generations of our ancestors toiled in laying the foundation by which this savage and white supremacist nation remains prosperous as a result of were hot too, bitch," Dallas County Black Foot Soldier Elijah Hays is quoted as saying.
"It is a tragedy that not even fire could purge this vile, old, witch haired devil of her violent Holocaust denial." According to reports, Harris remains in critical condition at Parkland Memorial Hospital. It is unconfirmed whether a proposed 'Anti-Recovery' Dallas Black Foot Soldier pray rally is planned against her.

Recently, in one of the old Johnson cabinet card albums, I discovered a previously undetected tin type photograph of Malla (Larson), looking several years younger than she was at the time of her wedding in 1886 (see my previous blog post: "In Search of Great Grandma's Girlhood.") I was overjoyed to find this photo, because it is now the youngest image the family has of Malla. I say that it was "previously undetected," because my ancestors, like yours, did not often take the time to write down the identities of people in their photographs. Everyone knew who they were at the time, so what was the urgency?
Perhaps unmarked ancestral photographs were left untouched in order to present a challenge for relations to come... for people like me, who take pride in being the family historian, and who also possess capable facial recognition skills along with a love of the chase. And, a chase it is! Many of you know that familiar adrenalin surge when recognizing someone in a newly acquired vintage photograph, or feeling the slow spread of certainty after an initial reaction of "I know this person!" You have just "bagged" another ancestor and not returned home from the hunt empty-handed.
|Anne Marie ("Mary") Sloan (right), 1884/85
Though I was not actively looking for it, I acquired a piece of another great grandma's girlhood among the tin type photographs I scanned yesterday. In this especially lovely pose from the mid-1880s, I knew I had seen the girl standing on the right before, though the hat made it more difficult to see all of her features. The girl sitting next to her was unfamiliar--a cousin, or friend, perhaps? Suddenly, it hit me that the girl on the right looked like my mother's maternal grandmother, Anne Marie ("Mary") Slaaen (or Sloan--the Americanized version of the family name). Her face in the photo above has a bit more "baby fat" than what I remembered in her wedding photograph, so I zoomed in on the two in order to compare. One in the same!
|Mary (Sloan) Berge, Feb. 1886
I then remembered the situation as my mother had previously described to me. In early Chippewa County, as in any sparsely populated pioneer community, it is true that everybody knew everybody. When friends gave likenesses to friends, it was a kind gesture that was usually reciprocated. But, Mary Sloan had an even more important reason to give her photograph to young Ole Johnson, because the two of them courted for awhile. Mary Sloan, at about age 16, dated Ole Martin Johnson, a local homesteader and landowner, who was eight years her senior. At the same time, Malla Larson, also age 16, dated Ole Benhart Berge, who was four years her senior. Somewhere along the line, Ole Johnson must have decided that Malla Larson would make a better partner for his chosen way of life, whereas Mary Sloan fell in love with Ole Benhart Berge, a future mail carrier and railroad worker. Both couples, linked to better suit their mutual strengths, were married in February 1886: the Berges on February 6, and the Johnsons on the 28th. So, Ole Johnson got his helpmate in lovely Malla, and Ole Berge got his sweet Mary; the stars were aligned correctly, at last, and the Johnson/Larson and Berge/Sloan legacies were begun.
|Ole and Malla Johnson, Feb. 1886

--Anne Marie (Mary) Sloan/Slaaen, June 20, 1868-June 7, 1947; born in a covered wagon near Swan Lake, Nicollett County, Minnesota; died from leukemia.
--Twelve children; two died in infancy.
--Lived near Leonard, Clearwater County, Minnesota; Maynard, Chippewa County, Minnesota.
--Married 61 years.

Cut GST threshold on overseas goods: Myer
Myer has blamed economic conditions, the introduction of the carbon tax and a GST loophole on goods bought overseas for its weak performance.
Chairman Paul McClintock said today the retail sector continued to be impacted by ''a range of macroeconomic factors''.
''While our sales in the first quarter (of the 2012-13 year) reflected a modest improvement in consumer sentiment, the challenging retail and economic environment continues, both in Australia and internationally,'' he told Myer's annual general meeting in Melbourne.
''Uncertainty at a political level is also impacting business across Australia, at a time when business and consumers alike want and need certainty.''
New taxes and charges such as the carbon tax and the flood levy had impacted consumers and their discretionary spending, while current industrial relations settings have significantly increased the company's costs, Mr McClintock said.
He also joined the likes of fellow retail businessmen Gerry Harvey and Solomon Lew in calling on the federal government to cut in the GST-free threshold on goods bought from overseas.
''If the federal government truly values the retail sector, the impact of increasing labour costs and uncompetitive nature of online retailing must be balanced by measures to improve productivity or flexibility,'' Mr McClintock said.
''We look forward to the outcomes of the GST review, as well as the low import threshold taskforce delivering reforms to ensure the retail industry can continue providing economic benefits to all Australians by remaining globally competitive.''
Myer's full year profit in 2011-12 fell 12.7 per cent from the previous year to $139.4 million, with sales down 1.3 per cent.
Its sales in the first quarter of the current year were up 1 per cent from the same period in the previous year.
Myer shares were up 2.5 cents at $2.195 in late morning trade.

NAACP Benjamin Todd Jealous will step down as president of the nation's oldest and largest U.S. civil rights organization, the Baltimore-based organization announced on Sunday. The resignation will become effective on December 31.
Jealous has been the president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for five years and is credited with "re-energizing and modernizing" the iconic civil rights organization, notes the Baltimore Sun.
Jealous, 40, took the helm of the 104-year-old organization in 2008, at a time when members openly lamented their inability to attract a younger generation to the group. ... When he was tapped for the job five years ago, the vote was split — some members wondered whether Jealous, then 35, was too inexperienced. Only a year before that, the NAACP let go about half its staff to dig itself out of debt. Membership has declined, and its image has suffered. Clashes with the NAACP board led the former president, Bruce S. Gordon, to leave abruptly in March 2007.
Under Jealous, NAACP helped to repeal the death penalty in New Mexico, Illinois, Connecticut and Maryland; registered hundreds of thousands of voters for the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections; and organized against New York City's use of stop-and-frisk policing.
Jealous' leadership has increased the organization's revenue and digital footprint, adds the Washington Post.
Last week, Jealous said that his NAACP tenure was a sprint that has left the organization with more technological savvy and on sounder financial footing. It now has 420,000 mobile subscribers. The organization's e-mail list has jumped from 174,000 names when Jealous joined to 1.3 million. In the 2012 election cycle, the NAACP registered 374,553 new voters — more than double the number it registered in 2008.
Given the NAACP's periodic money woes and controversies, the most important numbers may be financial: According to the organization's tax filings and numbers it provided, its revenue has grown from $25.6 million in 2008 to $46 million last year, and its individual donor base has expanded eightfold.
"As others questioned its vitality, we have been able to regrow the mightiest of all trees in the ecology of social justice," Jealous told the Washington Post. "I'm really going to miss the street fights we've been in."
As has been reported numerous times on R20, Jealous has worked to engage the NAACP in LGBT issues. In February 2009, the national board called for the overturn of California's Proposition 8 but stopped short of endorsing equal marriage. Later that year, the National Black Justice Coalition became the first Black LGBT group to address the national board. In March 2011, the first openly LGBT president of a local NAACP chapter was elected. In August 2011, the organization held its first town hall on LGBT issues.
These actions climaxed on May 12, 2012 when the NAACP board of directors voted to endorse equal marriage rights for same-sex couples. This marked the first time the national board has fully endorsed marriage equality—and came ten days after President Barack Obama's historic announcement supporting that position. The resolution was presented at the civil rights organization's annual retreat in Miami. It was approved by an almost unanimous vote—only 2 members of the 64-member board opposed.
In February 2010, the NAACP elected the now-45-year-old Roslyn Brock as its new chairwoman to replace the legendary Julian Bond, a civil rights icon and one of the first Blacks elected to the Georgia House of Representatives. Brock and Jealous both pledged to make the veteran civil rights organization more relevant.
Jealous says that he is leaving office to spend more time with his wife, civil rights lawyer Lia Epperson, and children, daughter Morgan, 7, and Jack, 13 months. Jealous will also launch an organization to raise money for Black political candidates. In an interview with USA TODAY, Jealous described his vision as an "EMILY's list for people of color."
Bravo and a thousand congratulations to Benjamin Todd Jealous who has left an incredible legacy on social justice.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JonnD241 from my go to bait This is the best bait for fishing when you want to just tie on a lure and throw it out and regardless of how you reel it in it will catch bass/crappie big and small. i went fishn with my brother one day and he grab some shad colored ones and after I say how they just attacked it all day I was sold on them. I found that if you are not using a light action or UL rod you will have trouble with fish gettn off them. These swimbaits do not need much of hook set cause the fish bite on and swims off if you jerk it will let go before hook set I just reel down onto the tension and the fish kickn its tall will set the hook if the rod is to stiff they will get off normal.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Tiredofbadbaits417 from Great Action but, fish don't hold on!!! I bought this bait a week ago and was very excited to test it out on lake michigan off a dock. I casted a few times but, the wind was horrible that day so i didn't have much luck until i got a huge bite! I was positive that it was at least a 3 pounder but, just as soon as I felt the bite, my line went slack again! I did a lot of research and seemed by far the best because, of there deep study into what make fish bite and so forth. I loved the action on this bait though even though the fish didn't hold on. So, be warned great action but, once the fish get a taste of the plastic they spit it out and high tail it away!

Rated 3 out of 5 by NeedmoFishintime from As others have posted, "Great bait, but...." I have had great success in getting the bite from fish (bass, tarpon, snook, and sea trout) with the Pearl Red Eye. I get the hookup but too often lose the fish. Strongly believe the problem is in the hook and the small size of the barb. The lures I have purchased lately have such a small barb and the lure is fairly heavy. A few shakes if the fish gets it's head out of the water and you go home with the dreaded "One that got away" story. Berkley, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE improve the barb on these great baits! My freezer has too much room in it! I also do a bit of "skipping" with the lure to get under vegetation, docks, bridges, etc. and found the lure's plastic will split on the belly - exposing the lead. Only happens when I skip it across the surface after several times. This does cause the lure to swim to the side.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Trainer from The Best I am from Jamaica, a little town called Black River. My friends and i have been using the 4'' and 3'' Firetiger swim shad to catch snook, more so the 4''. Let me tell you, we dont need any other bait for snook because it is the 'baddest' bait we have ever used. We swear by it. There is nothing like it. I have fishermen begging me to order packs for them. I recommend it to all my fishing buddies all over the island. If I had a thousand packs they would be all gone in a minute. Hmmm I need to get into the business. We loooove Mr Firetiger.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Grogers70426 from My go to bait Every time I get a chance I pick up a bag or two of these. The only bad thing about Wal-Mart is they only carry 4 of the colors in the 3" size, which is Baby Bass, Shad, Firetiger, & Pearl Red Eye. But I use the Pearl ones more than any other one of em. I been looking for the bluegill ones but I can't find em. I was using the same bait for a few weeks and caught about 12 largemouth bass, 3 white crappie n even a bluegill. I think the reason they loved hitting it was when I put it in tackle box I had a red worm that stained it a lil on the tail but the darkest red was in the gill area. Although I've had good luck with the Pearl & Shad, I haven't had much luck with baby bass & the bag of firetiger must've been defective bc when I would set the hook it would pull the weight through the bait. So I haven't bought another bag of firetiger. But I like that they are prerigged bc it takes the guess work out of getting it rigged perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JonRugby from First time looking for bass... Picked up a package of the firetiger 4" and went out looking for bass in our neighborhood ponds and pulled out this nice crappie! Then went out later that night and hooked this largemouth! Love it but definitely not weedless...

Rated 5 out of 5 by Florida_Bass2684 from Great Crappie Bait One of the easiest baits to cast and catch crappie and troll behind the boat under a cork, the little pogy tail does the work. One minnow last a long time, caught up to 20 crappie on one bait!

by Barbara L. Sherf
Mother's Day is so often thought of as a day of breakfast in bed, homemade cards, fresh flowers and a celebration of life, but for mothers who have had an infant die, the day can be filled with sorrow, pain and guilt for not being able to mother and hold onto their deceased children.
Flourtown resident and Springside graduate Robin Lentz Worgan, 43, and her husband, Glenn, should know. While the couple has four children, 16-year old Elizabeth, a Springside student; 15-year old Martin, who attends an out-of-state boarding school; Winnie, 10, and Lila, 8, who attend Springfield schools, they also "have a daughter, Margaret, in heaven." Margaret was fully formed, and Robin was in her ninth month of pregnancy when she delivered the stillborn on August 13, 1997.
Worgan, who has a Bachelor's degree in English from Ursinus College and a Master's degree in Elementary Education from The University of Pennsylvania, began her writing career by contributing an essay about the miscarriage of her first pregnancy to an anthology titled "Our Stories of Miscarriage." The painful experience led her to journal extensively and eventually write a book, "Journaling Away Mommy's Grief: A Book And A Journal For Mothers after Stillbirth or Infant Loss," that debuted in January. On Sunday, May 1, Worgan, will speak, read from her book and offer tips to grieving mothers at The Big Blue Marble Bookstore, 551 Carpenter Lane in Mt. Airy at 3 p.m.
After the stillbirth of Margaret, the author found that daily reflection and writing in her journal became powerful tools for healing. The couple was able to spend time with Margaret before she was taken away, which Robin believes helped in the grieving process. "Glenn and I looked at each other and both said, 'Her name is Margaret Minehart Worgan.' Then we held her for three hours and cried. They dressed her, wrapped her in a pink blanket and gave her a small gold ring and tiny teddy bear and took lots of photos."
In each chapter in the 121-page book, published by Grief Illustrated Press, the author uses her original journal entries to describe her experience of coping with loss. In her book, Worgan offers many ideas on how to support a family that has had a baby pass away, including these three:
•Be a good listener. Unless you had a child die also, you do not know what I am going through, so just be there to listen and support me.
•Use my child's name so that you honor her presence. Since she never lived outside my womb, your using her name actually keeps her spirit alive for me.
•Please don't tell me how lucky I am that I have other children or can have more children in the future. I know that, and I say it to myself all of the time, but I can never get my lost child back. She will always be missing.
In the months after the death, Worgan talks about hallucinating and seeing Margaret. This excerpt is from April 3, 1998: "I sat looking at the ocean, and I had this vision of you playing on the beach. It was so real that I felt like I was really watching you. You look like your Aunt Katie did as a baby … Elizabeth is in front of you, and she is building a castle for you; then she buries your toes and plays peek-a-boo. You are laughing at everything she does. Later, I nurse you to sleep. You are not an easy nurser, but then again…you are not here."
Curled up in a leather chair sipping tea, Worgan talked about that episode. "For those of us with a creative mind, it can be a gift to see that child. I can't see her anymore because I don't know what she would look like at 13. I can't picture that."
The paperback book has a colorful front cover that was inspired by Winnie. "I wanted to do something for my sister, Margaret, in heaven," said Winnie. Daughter Elizabeth, who enjoys music, sang the Sara McLaughlin song, "Angels Among Us," at the book debut event in January.
Worgan talked about how grief changes over time. "Her birthday had always been such a sad, painful day, and now it has become more of a celebration of her ever-constant place in our lives."
"Journaling Away Mommy's Grief" is available at $14.95 for purchase at the author's website, www.robinlentzworgan.com; from Centering Corporation, a non-profit grieving organization at www.centering.org, or from Amazon.com.
Individuals unable to attend Sunday's event may sign up for future Grief Journaling Workshops to be held at The Big Blue Marble Bookstore by e-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com.

Matt Cassel to Start Sunday at Baltimore
The Minnesota Vikings quarterback carousel goes round and round.
Quarterback Christian Ponder hasn't passed the protocol for a concussion, and as a result, Matt Cassel will start Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens.
Frazier told ESPN 1500 yesterday that Cassel will make third start of the season.
In other Vikings news, Audie Cole will remain at middle linebacker. Erin Henderson will move to weak side linebacker. Sunday will be Cole's third straight start for Minnesota.
Cornerback Chris Cook has appealed a $26,000 fine for contacting an official in Sunday's win over Chicago. Cook was also ejected for the incident on Sunday.

Northern Gannet
In case you were wondering what the Atlantic Ocean looks like in March, thanks to Birdcouple you don't have to go and look for yourself:
Dan Haas was on the lookout for an elusive Skua! We didn't find one, but Dan got a decent enough picture of a shearwater to confirm it was a Sooty Shearwater, a lifer for many of us onboard.
What with birds disappearing behind waves, diving and flying off, and the boat lurching back and forth, Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-elagic photography can be a challenge. This is the best Warren could do with a nearby Razorbill:
As we pulled back in towards port and poured the last of the chum overboard, gulls flocked about our fine ship, the Morningstar. This one reminded us of a certain Alfred Hitchcock bird movie:
Others seemed to dance along the water:
Even Herring Gulls can be pretty sometimes:
Our last birds of the day were a pair of Laughing Gulls at the OC Inlet parking lot. We tried to turn them into Franklin's Gulls. Dan wasn't buying it.
We were tired too, after 11 hours on the boat and a 4:30 am wake-up call. Time to go home and rest. And warm up.

Steampunk Costume: Bolero Update
Bit by bit, it's starting to come to life… still much more to be done. While Brenda sewed the body of the bolero together. We've now for some strapping and buckles, the box-pleating along the edge, and piping next to it. I'm quite pleased at how well it's coming together. We still have more details to add including another layer of ribbon detail next to the piping, and some strapping at the shoulders (which will have to go on as we put the sleeves on). I'm quite please at how the shape on the back turned out but I don't have a photo of that yet. This will have to to:
I also started to figure out the shape of the cuffs – which will be multi-layered…

In the ground vehicle industry it is often an important task to simulate full vehicle models based on the wheel forces and moments, which have been measured during driving over certain roads with a prototype vehicle. The models are described by a system of differential algebraic equations (DAE) or ordinary differential equations (ODE). The goal of the simulation is to derive section forces at certain components for a durability assessment. In contrast to handling simulations, which are performed including more or less complex tyre models, a driver model, and a digital road profile, the models we use here usually do not contain the tyres or a driver model. Instead, the measured wheel forces are used for excitation of the unconstrained model. This can be difficult due to noise in the input data, which leads to an undesired drift of the vehicle model in the simulation.

The messages were pirated from the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia (UEA) and reveal correspondence between British and American researchers engaged in fraudulent reporting of data to favor their own climate change agenda. UEA officials confirmed one of their servers was hacked, and several of the scientists involved admitted the authenticity of the messages, according to the New York Times. The article opined, "The evidence pointing to a growing human contribution to global warming is so widely accepted that the hacked material is unlikely to erode the overall argument."
Climatologist Patrick J. Michaels challenged that position. "This is not a smoking gun, this is a mushroom cloud." The e-mails implicate scores of researchers, most of whom are associated with the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), an organization many skeptics believe was created exclusively to provide evidence of anthropogenic global warming (AGW).
Among the IPCC elite embarrassingly, if not criminally, compromised is Phillip D. Jones, a Ph.D. climatologist at the University of East Anglia whose work figured prominently in the IPCC Third Assessment Report of 2001. Jones also contributed significantly to the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report in 2007 (AR4), but he failed to follow through when skeptical investigators asked to review raw data associated with that report. They announced intent to use UK Freedom of Information laws to obtain the data, so Jones sent the following e-mail to one of his collaborators: "Mike, Can you delete any e-mails you may have had with Keith re AR4? Keith will do likewise.... Can you also e-mail Gene and get him to do the same?... Will be getting Caspar to do likewise." The Mike in this message is Michael Mann, professor of meteorology at Pennsylvania State University, whose influential "hockey stick" graph warning of pending global warming eco-catastrophe was found by a congressional investigation to be fraudulent. In another correspondence about AR4 labeled HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL, Jones contacted Mann regarding research critical of their global warming platform. "I can't see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report," wrote Jones. "Kevin and I will keep them out somehow — even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!"
Mann received another incriminating e-mail from Dr. Kevin Trenberth, a New Zealander now with the University of Colorado and Head of the Climate Analysis Section at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. "The fact is we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can't." An incredulous Trenberth simply blamed "our [inadequate] observing system." Yet he and his colleagues are now dodging the "Climategate" bullet, indignant that global warming skeptics are supposedly taking their comments out of context. One wonders if they might be referring to a message from Jones who wrote about a statistical "trick" he used to "hide" data. Or perhaps they mean Mann's reference to climate change skeptics as "idiots."
Now that AGW is revealed as a farce, will big-spending politicians in the U.S. Senate halt efforts to impose a cap-and-trade system to ostensibly combat greenhouse gases and global warming? Of course not. Cap and trade is about raising taxes and increasing government control over our entire economy. Our socialist politicians in Washington will never stop pushing this issue, even if global-warming alarmism is disproven to the point that Hell really does freeze over.
Will widespread and irrefutable knowledge of scientific fraud silence the socialist promoters of a new United Nations Climate Change protocol? Nonsense. In the name of saving the planet, the UN Copenhagen Treaty they intend to impose on the world would help to shackle it. Specifically, their "green" agenda would impose international controls, diminish the industrial might and living standards of developed nations, and transfer wealth from rich countries to poorer ones in an emerging world government. Internationalists and socialists will not back away from their long-sought-after global designs simply because the "science" supporting runaway global warming is shown to be flawed. No doubt they will continue to demand retributions for climate debt from the United States and the largely agreeable EU, despite Trenberth's observed "lack of warming."
The good thing is that even more than in the past, these false scientists and their alarmism will be countered with their own words. Even now reliable researchers are compiling the information in a publication that should shake our nation — and maybe even a few Democratic politicians.

Well, I've come to 31 weeks pregnant! If it wasn't for an extended bout of single parenting I'd probably be managing the pregnancy quite well too. I'm exhausted - what with the kidlets, the dragon in my belly, keeping up with my nesting instinct, and the bits of work I manage to get in there. Oh, and the quilting.

Book or Baby?
Well, I've come to 31 weeks pregnant! If it wasn't for an extended bout of single parenting I'd probably be managing the pregnancy quite well too. I'm exhausted - what with the kidlets, the dragon in my belly, keeping up with my nesting instinct, and the bits of work I manage to get in there. Oh, and the quilting.

I love hearing about the busyness of your days. Since my youngest went to college I kinda miss the hustle and bustle of kids in the house. My first two were born early and with my third I was totally confident he'd be early too. Sooo ... when I went close to the actual due date I felt like I was pregant 10 months.
I'm picking April 6th for the baby date and March 10th for the book date. Good Luck!!

Chocolate Soufflé
Jacques Torres' A Year in Chocolate: 80 Recipes for Holidays and Special Occasions
Published by Stewart, Tabori & Chang
There is nothing that says celebration like a chocolate soufflé. Not only does a towering soufflé, fresh out of the oven, look sensational, but it is also one terrific low-fat dessert. Plus, this particular recipe is perfect for entertaining as the batter can be made up to one day in advance, held in the refrigerator, and baked while you enjoy your meal. Soufflés can also be made and baked in buttered and sugared individual soufflé molds. This is best done by piping the soufflé batter into the molds with a pastry bag fitted with a 1-inch plain tip. Fill as directed in the recipe and bake for 6 to 8 minutes.

Type of Dishchocolate dessert, dessert
- Approximately 1 tablespoon softened unsalted butter
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 8 large egg whites, at room temperature
- 3 ½ ounces bittersweet (preferably 75%) chocolate, melted
- 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- Whipped cream, optional
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Lightly coat the interior of a 1 ½-quart soufflé mold with the butter. Place ¼ cup of the granulated sugar in the mold and begin turning the mold back and forth so that the entire interior is generously coated with sugar. Turn upside down to allow any excess sugar to fall out. Set aside.
Combine the egg whites with the remaining ½ cup granulated sugar in the bowl of a standing electric mixer, whisking to combine.
Fill a 1-quart saucepan halfway with water and place it over high heat. Bring to a boil. Place the bowl over the boiling water without allowing the bottom of the bowl to directly touch the water. Using a wire whisk, beat for about 3 minutes, or until quite warm.
Remove from the heat and place the bowl in the stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Beat on medium, just until frothy. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until stiff but not dry peaks form.
Remove the bowl from the mixer and, using a rubber spatula, fold the melted chocolate into the meringue, taking care not to overmix, but also taking care that the egg whites are completely incorporated into the chocolate.
Carefully scrape the soufflé batter into the prepared mold. It should come to about 1 inch below the top. Place in the middle of the oven, making sure that it has room to rise without hitting a top rack. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the soufflé has risen about one and a half times its height and the top is lightly colored.
Remove from the oven. Place the confectioners' sugar in a fine-mesh sieve and, tapping on the sides of the sieve, dust the top of the soufflé with the sugar. Serve immediately with a bit of whipped cream, if desired.
