Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
US presidential hopeful Barrack Obama on Sunday insisted that just because he tends to side with those who advocate dividing the Land of Israel as the most viable path to peace does not mean that he is an enemy of the Jewish state.
Speaking to Jewish leaders in Cleveland, the Illinois senator complained that "there is a strain within the pro-Israel community that says unless you adopt a unwavering pro-Likud approach to Israel that you're anti-Israel."
Israel's opposition Likud Party and its supporters promote minimal or no territorial compromises in the quest for peace with an Arab world that has tried to militarily destroy the Jewish state at least three different times.
But, according to Obama, backing the Jews' biblical, historical and legal claim to all of the land in question "can't be the measure of our friendship with Israel."
Nor can supporting the view that only by defeating its Islamic foes can Israel enjoy any semblence of peace and security, continued the Democratic frontrunner.
As his popularity grows, Mr. Obama has come under scathing attack from supporters of the Jewish state for turning to advisors who have in the past expressed anti-Israel opinions.

Series 1 Lab 3 Tetrahymena pyriformis Phagocytosis
Adapted from Bozzone, M.D., and D.A. Martin 2000. An experimenal system to study phagocytosis. Pages 405-415, in Tested studies for laboratory teaching, Volume 21 (S.J. Karcher, Editor). Proceedings of the 21st Workshop/Conference of the Association for Biology Laboratory Education (ABLE).
In this laboratory, you will study Tetrahymena phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is the process by which cells ingest large particles. Unicellular organisms such as Tetrahymena pyriformis carry out phagocytosis in order to obtain nutrients. During the process of phagocytosis, particles are internalized in an endocytic vesicle called a phagosome. The phagosome ultimately fuses with the lysosome so that nutrients can be broken down and used by the cell. In many multicellular organisms, only specialized cells are capable of phagocytosis. Instead of carrying out phagocytosis to obtain nutrients, human phagocytic cells called macrophages are capable of recognizing and engulfing pathogens or abnormal cells. In this lab, you will use Tetrahymena pyriformis as a model organism for the study of phagocytosis. In order to visualize phagocytosis in Tetrahymena, we will provide the cells with India ink as a "food" source. In addition to making scientific observations in this lab, you will also have the opportunity to learn some of the ways that scientific data are evaluated and presented.
PART I: Concepts in Experimentation
A. Accuracy and Precision
When carrying out an experiment, it is important to do the experiment more than one time to be sure that your measurements are accurate and as precise as possible. Accuracy is the degree of agreement between the measured value of a particular component and the accepted true value. Precision is defined as the degree of agreement between replicate measurements of the same component. Precise measurements do not necessarily indicate accurate measurements. Figure 1 uses targets to illustrate the difference between accuracy and precision. If the bull's eyes in the targets below represent the true value, then the darts that are the closest to the center of the target are the most accurate. Darts that are not near the center of the target are not accurate even though they may be very closely grouped together indicating good precision. Finally, the darts that are not near the center or grouped together are neither accurate nor precise. Measured values that are both accurate and precise are the goal of all analytical procedures.
B. Statistical Parameters
For various reasons, replicate analytical measurements do not always result in exactly identical values, and so statistical calculations are often used to evaluate analytical data. The validity of these calculations is linked to the number of replicate measurements. Generally, a high number of measured values will yield the most valid statistical evaluation. A short explanation of several elementary statistical parameters on replicate measurements are provided below.
1. Median Value
If all the replicate values for a series of measurements were ordered from the lowest value to the highest value, then the midpoint value is the median. For example, if a series of measured millimolar (mM) concentrations of NaCl are 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.5, and 10.7mM, the median value would be 10.3mM.
2. Range of Values
The range is the difference between the highest measured value and the lowest measured value in a series of replicate measurements and is a simple indicator of precision. A wide range in replicate measured values indicates poor precision. The range is calculated by subtracting the lowest replicate value from the highest. For the above concentrations of NaCl, the range would be calculated as:
3. Mean Value
The mean value is simply the arithmetic average of all the replicate values and is generally considered to be more accurate than any individual measured value. The mean is calculated by adding all the measured values and dividing by the number of measured values or sample size. The mean value is represented mathematically as:
The mean of the NaCl concentrations from step #1 is calculated as follows:
4. Standard Deviation
The standard deviation is a measure of how spread out or variable the values are. The standard deviation is calculated by subtracting the mean from each value and then squaring and summing these values. The resulting value is divided by n-1, where n is the number of values. The square root of these values is the standard deviation. The standard deviation is represented mathematically as:
The standard deviation of the sodium chloride values is calculated as follows:
5. Practice Data Analysis
Imagine that you exposed Tetrahymena to ink and observed the number of ink filled vacuoles in 15 cells at both 10 minutes and 30 minutes. You obtained the following data for the number of filled vacuoles at each time point:
Calculate the means and standard deviations of ink filled vacuoles at 10 and 30 minutes. Refer to the Generating Graphs and Error Bars with Microsoft Excel instructions found below or in Appendix A and plot the data in a bar graph with time on the X axis and the mean number of filled vacuoles on the Y axis. Use error bars to denote the standard deviation.
Generating Graphs and Error Bars with Microsoft Excel
- To launch Excel, click on the icon in the dock at the bottom of the screen. An Excel Workbook will open. If Microsoft Excel is already open, select New Workbook from the File menu to display a new spreadsheet.
- To determine the mean and standard deviation, write Average in cell A2 and Standard Deviation in cell A3. List variable 1 in cell B1, variable 2 in cell C1… Now enter the number of filled vacuoles per cell for variable 1 in cells B4, B5, B6... Enter the number of filled vacuoles per cell for variable 2 in cells C4, C5, C6…
- Be sure that the formula builder bar under view is selected.
- To determine the average value for variable 1 (10 min), click on cell B2, press the = symbol, click on the upper left pull down menu and select AVERAGE, highlight cells B4-B18 and press return. The average value should now appear in cell B2.
- To determine the standard deviation for variable 1, click on cell B3, press the = symbol, click on the upper left pull down menu and select STDEV, highlight cells B4-B18 and press return. The standard deviation value should now appear in cell B3.
- To determine average and standard deviation values for variable 2 (30 min), highlight cells B2 and B3, select the lower right square on the highlighted box with the black + symbol, drag to the right until you reach cells C2 and C3, and then release the mouse. The average and standard deviation values for variable 2 should now appear in cells C2 and C3.
- To make your graph, click on cell A1. While keeping the mouse clicked, drag mouse to cell C3 so that cells A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, and C2 are all highlighted.
- Click on the Charts tab below the toolbar. A gallery of chart types will appear below. Press the Column button below to display the appropriate charts in this so-called Elements Gallery.
- To select the proper chart type from the Elements Gallery, press the "Clustered Column" thumbnail (all the way to the left). A chart will appear on the worksheet.
- Open the Formatting Palette by pressing on the Toolbox icon. (If this doesn't work, try clicking on Format and then Data Series.) Under Chart Options you can label the axes and provide a title.
- To add error bars, double click on the columns on your graph. The format data series box will appear. Select Error Bars on the left. Under display, select Both. Under error amount, select Custom and Specify Value. The Custom Error Bars chart will appear. Clear any values in the Positive Error Value box and then highlight the standard deviation values that you calculated previously. Do the same with the Negative Error Values. Click OK twice.
- The chart may be created as an object in the worksheet, or it may be displayed as a new sheet. Under the Chart menu select Move Chart... to choose between these two options.
- Double-clicking on either axis will allow you to change the scale, font and other features of the axis.
PART II: Ink and Tetrahymena Behavior
You will be provided with 1% India ink and live Tetrahymena for this lab. You will add 1% ink to the Tetrahymena and make observations. Based on your careful observations, you will collect some data to quantify Tetrahymena phagocytosis in the presence of India ink.
A. Observations of Tetrahymena pyriformis Exposed to India Ink
- In a microcentrifuge tube, add 50 μL of 1% ink solution and then add 50 μL of live Tetrahymena. Mix gently and record the time.
- What is the effective concentration of the ink after the addition of Tetrahymena?
- Add 20 μL of the Tetrahymena pyriformis and ink solution that you made in step 1 to a glass slide. Add a cover slip and view using the microscope. If you need to review how to focus the microscrope, refer to the directions in Lab 2. You may need to adjust the field diaphragm or to lower the condenser a bit to see the cellular structures clearly. Record your observations in your notebook.
- Do you see any ink particles inside the Tetrahymena? Be sure to note the time as soon as you notice an ink filled phagocytic vacuole forming. Continue observing the Tetrahymena. Watch the Tetrahymena for 15 minutes, noting how many vacuoles form and where those vacuoles are in the cell. Do they move? Are the vacuoles uniform in size?
B. Time course experiment of Tetrahymena pyriformis Exposed to India Ink
After you have had a chance to observe the "Tetrahymena" in the presence of ink, you will do an experiment in which you collect data to present in the form of two figures.
- Put on a pair of gloves.
- To begin your experiment, add 50 μL of 1% ink solution and then add 50 μL of live Tetrahymena. Mix gently and record the time.
- After 0, 5, and 15 minutes, add 20 μL of the Tetrahymena and ink solution to a clean labeled microcentrifuge tube. IN THE HOOD, add 10 μL of 3% gluteraldehyde to your Tetrahymena and ink solution and wait for 1 minute. The glutaraldehyde will fix (kill) the cells, allowing you to observe the Tetrahymena in more detail. Then add 2 μL of 2.5 M glycine to inactivate the glutaraldehyde. Wait for 1 minute and then remove the tube from the hood.
- Add 20 μL of the resulting 32 μL mixture to a glass slide and place a cover slip on top.
- Using a digital camera, take photos of the Tetrahymena at the 0, 5, 10 and 15 minute timepoints. Please refer to the directions in Appendix H for detailed camera instructions.
- Count the number of ink filled vacuoles in 10 individual Tetrahymena at each time point and record this information in your lab notebook.
- Using the micrometer, measure the size of these phagocytic vacuoles inside the Tetrahymena. Measure at least 1 vacuole from at least 5 individual Tetrahymena. Check with your instructor to be sure that you are measuring the correct structure. Did you see them form in the live "Tetrahymena"? Describe the process of phagocytosis in Tetrahymena in your lab notebook.
PART III: Design your own experiment to investigate a variable that affects phagocytosis in Tetrahymena pyriformis
In the next lab, you will have the opportunity to design your own experiment to study a factor that affects phagocytosis in Tetrahymena. The cytoskeleton plays an important role in the architecture of the cell. Microfilaments (composed of actin) are located throughout the cell but they are found predominantly near the plasma membrane where they play a role in cell movement. Microtubules (composed of tubulin) form hollow tubes in the cell and serve as tracks along which materials are transported. They also play a key role in the organization of organelles and they form the mitotic spindle. Many research papers that explore phagocytosis propose that the cytoskeleton, particularly the actin containing elements of the cytoskeleton, are crucial to some or all of the parts of phagocytosis. There seems to be some conflicting evidence addressing the role of the tubulin containing part of the cytoskeleton. You could choose to explore either the role of microfilaments (actin) or microtubules (tubulin) in phagocytosis in Tetrahymena pyriformis. Alternatively, you may choose to investigate whether particle size affects phagocytosis.
Before you leave today, in groups of 4, design your own experiment to answer one of several questions that may have come up from your observations or from your reading about Tetrahymena phagocytosis. Your instructor will explain your options and she/he will direct you to a research paper or other information related to the question that you and your group chooses to explore. The information given should help you figure out appropriate experimental conditions. Create a sharable document with your group including your names, experimental question, and experimental protocol (including showing how you will make all working solutions of reagents) and division of labor within the group. Make sure your protocol is approved by your instructor.
Main Topic Choices:
1.What role does the cytoskeletal element actin (in microfilaments) play in one or more aspects of phagocytosis (either engulfment, phagosome formation, filling, movement or vesicle fusion) in Tetrahymena pyriformis? Study phagocytosis of India ink in the absence and presence of the actin inhibitor cytochalasin B.
2.What role does the cytoskeleton element tubulin (in microtubules) play in some aspect of phagocytosis (either engulfment, phagosome formation, filling, movement or vesicle fusion) in Tetrahymena pyriformis? Study phagocytosis of India ink in the absence and presence of the tubulin inhibitors colchicine or nocodazole.
3.Is phagocytosis in Tetrahymena pyriformis selective or non-selective for particle size (Study phagocytosis of Polybead dyed microspheres that vary in color and/or size OR study phagocytosis of microspheres and India ink)
Stock concentrations of reagents available to you:
In addition to the reagents that you used previously, cytoskeleton inhibitors and Polybead dyed microspheres (different colors and sizes) will be available for this experiment. CAUTION: Wear gloves and exercise caution when handling the inhibitors because they are toxic.
Cytochalasin B 14mM (6.7mg/ml) in DMSO
Colchicine 25mM (10mg/ml) in water
Nocodazole 7mM (2mg/ml) in DMSO
India ink (Speedball, Product #3328, #3338, Statesville, NC), according to the manufacturer, contains (vol./vol.): water (75-85%), carbon black (7-9%), shellac (6-8%), ammonium hydroxide (1-2%), phenol (0.45%) and ethylene glycol (1.6%). The carbon black is dispersed as ~ 20nm carbon particles but it ranges, in the commercial grade used for India ink from 13-75nm or larger when aggregated.
Polybead Dyed Microspheres available:
1.0µm Blue
3.0µm Blue
6.0µm Blue
10.0µm Blue
3.0µm Yellow
6.0µm Yellow
Polybeads are packaged as 2.5% aqueous suspension (water) and will be diluted to a working concentration of 0.08% prior to lab. This concentration approximately equals the working concentration of carbon particles in 1% India ink.
SAMPLE PROTOCOL TO INVESTIGATE THE ROLE OF ACTIN OR TUBULIN IN PHAGOCYTOSIS (you should modify/expand this for your experiments)
- In a microfuge tube, make a 1:100 dilution of the drug inhibitor in Tetrahymena stock by combining 99 µl Tetrahymena (grown for 48hrs in 2% proteose-peptone) and 1 µl inhibitor. (Do not add more volume of inhibitor because some of the inhibitors are diluted in toxic compounds that could negatively affect the viability of your cells at higher concentrations.) Include an appropriate control for your experiment to make sure that your inhibitor's diluent is not affecting cell viability or phagocytosis. For example, if your inhibitor is dissolved in DMSO, your control should be 1 µl of DMSO added to 99 µl of Tetrahymena.
- Incubate for 0-10 minutes if you think your inhibitor needs time to affect the element (actin, tubulin, or whatever you are trying to assess the role of in phagocytosis). Note that you can omit this pre-incubation step or shorten it if your research indicates that your inhibitor acts immediately on the element you are testing. What is the effective concentration of inhibitor in this important step?
- Add 100 µl of 1% India ink to the 100 µl Tetrahymena mixture prepared in step 1 in a microfuge tube. You will probably want to remove a 20 microliter sample immediately in order to assess a "zero time" control (see step 4). Calculate the concentration of your inhibitor and India ink after this combination. Note that you are making another ~1:100 dilution of your inhibitor in this step.
- At several time points ( ex. 0, 15, 30 min), REMOVE a 20 µl aliquot from the reaction microfuge tube of Tetrahymena/inhibitor/ink and the control tube of Tetrahymena/diluent/ink and, IN THE HOOD, put each aliquot in a clean, labeled microfuge tube containing 10 µl of 3% glutaraldehyde. This will stop phagocytosis by fixing the cells so you can study them later. Incubate for one minute then add 2 ul of 2.5M glycine. Incubate for one minute and then remove the tube from the hood. If you would prefer to study your cells live, you will have to take your measurements very quickly to keep the timing relatively accurate. What is the effective concentration of the gluteraldehyde fixative?
- Make a slide for each time point by placing 20 µl of each tube from step 4 on a separate slide and cover each with a cover slip. Don't make all your slides at the same time or the Tetrahymena will dry out before you can count the filled vacuoles.
- Count or assess whatever factor you have decided to measure in a reasonable number of cells at each time point.
SAMPLE PROTOCOL TO INVESTIGATE THE ROLE OF PARTICLE SIZE IN PHAGOCYTOSIS (you should modify/expand this for your experiments)
There are many different approaches you might take to determine the affect of particle size on phagocytosis. You might want to determine the ability of Tetrahymena to phagocytose different particle sizes individually. For example, you might test the ability of Tetrahymena to phagocytose the 1.0µm blue, 3.0µm blue, 6.0µm blue, and 10.0µm blue Polybead dyed microspheres by exposing the Tetrahymena to just one of these blue microspheres at a time. Alternatively, you might be interested to know whether Tetrahymena are selective for particle size when exposed to microspheres of two different sizes at once. To address this question, you might expose Tetrahymena to the 3.0µm blue and 6.0µm yellow microspheres at the same time. Compared to counting ink filled vacuoles, it is more difficult to count the number of microsphere filled vacuoles (especially if you use the larger sizes). Therefore, you might design an experiment in which you quantitate the percentage of Tetrahymena that phagocytose beads of a particular size (as opposed to counting the number of filled vacuoles after exposure to different bead sizes). Alternatively, you might try to count filled vacuoles. A basic protocol is presented below.
- Add 40 µl of Tetrahymena to 40 µl of each size 0.08% Polybead dyed microsphere. Calculate the concentration of the polystyrene beads after this combination. (If you want to add 2 different colored microspheres at once, you need to determine if you want to keep the total microsphere concentration constant or if you want to keep a single microsphere concentration constant.) You will probably want to remove a 20 microliter sample immediately in order to assess a "zero time" control (see step 2).
- At several time points (ex. 0, 15, 30 min.), REMOVE a 20 µl aliquot from the reaction microfuge tube of Tetrahymena/beads and, IN THE HOOD, put those aliquots in a clean, labeled microfuge tube containing 10 µl of 3% gluteraldehyde. Incubate for one minute then add 2 ul of 2.5M glycine. Incubate for one minute and then remove from the hood. If you would prefer to study your cells live, you will have to take your measurements very quickly to keep the timing relatively accurate. What is the effective concentration of the gluteraldehyde fixative?
- Make a slide for each time point by placing 20 µl of each tube from step 2 on separate slides and cover each with a cover slip. Don't make all your slides at the same time or they will dry out before you can count them.
- Count or assess whatever factor you decided to measure in a reasonable number of cells at each time point.
Don't worry that you may not be able to measure everything you would like to measure because of limited resources, equipment, and time available. Simplicity in your experimental design usually makes execution less difficult and the results more reproducible.
Laboratory Cleanup
- Place used microcentrifuge tubes and tips that contain gluteraldehyde WITH GLYCINE in autoclave bags taped above your bench.
- Any microcentrifuge tubes containing glutaraldehyde WITHOUT GLYCINE should be disposed of in the hood.
- Put all used microscope slides and cover slips in the glass disposal box.
- Proper storage of your microscope: Clean the objective lenses of your microscope, beginning with the lowest power (4x) and proceeding to the highest. Use lens tissue (NOT Kimwipes®). Make sure that there there is NO oil on any lens. Rotate the 4x objective lens into the locked viewing position. The binocular head must be rotated into the storage position, to protect the ocular lenses from damage. Loosen the setscrew on the right, rotate the head 180°, then retighten the screw. Turn off the microscope light. Return the microscope to the cabinet.
The following assignment consists of several parts. This assignment must be done individually.
- Generate two figures from your ink experiment. The first figure should be a composite photomicrograph of Tetrahymena at different time points during your experiment and the second figure should contain a graph of the analyzed data. Both figures should include figure legends. In the Resources section of the lab wiki, find the Guide to Scientific Writing. Refer to the sections on figures and legends for help. Digital image processing can be done with a variety software programs including Powerpoint and iPhoto. If you have a Mac, you might prefer to use your already installed iPhoto application to edit your images.
- What experimental question were you able to address with the data presented in your figures? Please limit this answer to one concise sentence.
- What can you conclude from the data presented in your figures? Please limit this answer to one short paragraph.
- Next week, you will be investigating a variable that affects phagocytosis in Tetrahymena. List your variable and then discuss why you think your particular variable may play a role in Tetrahymena phagocytosis. Limit your response to one paragraph. You must refer to at least one primary article in your response. This article can be the same one suggested by your instructor during lab today. Be sure to properly cite any sources you use to answer this question.

About Christopher Smith
You're begging the question. My "solution" is that while there are certainly issues with the way things are now, it's probably the best compromise out there, just as with the US approach to free speech.
And my conclusion follows if you expect "freedom of the press" to be maintained as some sort of principle at all. Unless you're going to forbid the NYT from printing editorials--and deal with situations where the media aren't interested in covering newsworthy stories at all--then you're placing Real Journalists in a privileged position to distribute their political opinions while denying others the right to use their means to do the same.
It's disappointing but unsurprising to see Techdirt and its community unreflectively jumping on the bandwagon here. The logic of the argument here isn't complicated, but it's apparently the elephant in the room.
The entire outrage about campaign contributions is premised on the claim that political money equals votes. There are only two ways that can work: direct bribery, which undoubtedly happens but is a relatively minor influence, and using money to purchase publicity. Therefore, the crucial implicit claim is that political publicity directly manipulates the electorate's votes.
Now I happen to agree wholeheartedly with that claim; I believe that most of the incumbent's advantage is a matter of the mere-exposure effect. However, an honest adherent to that claim has to acknowledge that the issue is not money per se but political publicity.
If that's the case, then the proposed "reforms" boil down to carving out a privileged position for incumbent media companies. CBS and the New York Times will still have massively wide-reaching platforms from which to push their political goals, but companies and individuals whose business happens not to be the mass media will be blocked from straightforward access to modern soapboxes.
Support Mayday if you like, but be honest about what you want: the government's picking who's allowed to reach an audience with political messages.
The ads are still being served with non-protocol-relative URLs, giving a mixed-content warning. And Firefox doesn't like your certificate, though not enough to give me a red page.
I was recently picked to do Nielsen ratings, and I figured I'd give it a try as entertainment. When they called me to do the screening survey, the representative specifically told me that a TV tuner card, watching OTA broadcast TV, doesn't count as television if I use a projector or a computer monitor as output, though if I used a monitor marketed as a TV with HDMI input, it would count. I'm amazed advertisers are still willing to accept prices based on these studies.
This certainly is an interesting edge case, but it's not new one. Established law in the US has been that courts can compel production of the key to a safe but not divulging a combination; this is just a logical extension to new sorts of "safes".
For all the legitimate criticism, unless you were making a joke I didn't get, I'm not sure how Glenn Beck qualifies as non-political, especially in this particular context.
Politicians with stupid policies get elected in large part because the media love to cover idiocy because it gets lots of attention. This causes the mere-exposure effect to kick in, where someone gets voted for merely because his name is familiar (which explains most of the incumbent's advantage).
Mike, for the detailed analysis you do in these cases, you tend to trip into the practice of throwing the word "right" around inaccurately. It's important to hold the government (and cloud-yellers) to what the law actually says, and the Constitution does not claim that the government has any rights whatsoever; rights are held by the people, which delegate specific (ha!) powers to the government.
On top of everything else, how are the producing parties supposed to aggregate everything into a format with a limit of 64K rows?
While I'm usually in agreement with both Mike's analyses and critical of most think-of-the-children measures, I fail to see how it's outrageous for parents or guardians to have the authority to access their minor children's online accounts. They have legal responsibility for their children, and they already have analogous authority to read their diaries, listen in on their phone calls, and monitor their computer usage from the client end. In the cases of actual mistreatment, as noted in the article, children can be legally emancipated, and parental rights are terminated.

LINCOLN — Plans for revamping the Lincoln Community School (LCS) facility were put on pause when the Vermont education commissioner rejected the school board's $3 million-$4 million bond proposal early last week. The school board and Building Committee met on Wednesday to discuss possible next steps for the school.
The decision arrived in a letter written by School Construction Coordinator Cathy Hilgendorf on behalf of Commissioner Armando Vilaseca.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
While it is highly arguable whether or not current US-brokered Israeli-Palestinian peace talks have made any more progress than previous attempts to forge a deal, Secretary of State John Kerry has managed to keep the negotiations rolling for well over six months. But he's about to hit a wall: Jerusalem.
Israeli officials who met with Kerry during his most recent visit insisted there is a consensus among the Israeli public for reaching a final status peace agreement that leads to the creation of a Palestinian state. And they are right. But what is also true is that the vast majority of Israelis have consistently said they are unwilling to redivide Jerusalem and surrender the city's eastern half to become the capital of that new Palestinian state.
Certain members of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government fear he is ready to buckle under American pressure, and are preparing next week to introduce legislation that would allow the Knesset to nix negotiations over the future status of Jerusalem.
On the other side, Palestinian leaders have repeatedly committed themselves to never signing any deal that does not include Palestinian control of eastern Jerusalem, including the Old City and its Temple Mount.
Washington has long recognized the impossible hurdle that Jerusalem represents. That is why the issue of Jerusalem has always been pushed aside and designated a "final status" topic to be discussed at a later date. But that date is soon approaching, and Jerusalem itself is likely to prove precisely why a genuine man-made peace under the current circumstances is simply unattainable.
This shouldn't come as a surprise:
"In that day I will make Jerusalem a stumbling block for all people; all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth gather against it." Zechariah 12:3

Chorizo Stroganov
Another dinner you can easily whip up in the time it takes you to boil some pasta! I love this - for me, it's a simple variation of a dish called "Korv Stroganov" which is a sausage version of "Beef Stroganov". While usually made with sour cream, I've never taken to that myself, I much prefer cream of some sort. (Feel free to experiment, obviously!)
Swedish falu-sausage is very fine-milled and mild. It's actually quite similar to simple hot dogs, so use that if you don't have access to "falukorv" as it's called in Swedish.
Chorizo Stroganov
Serves 2
200 g Swedish "falu-sausage" or something similar, diced
1 chorizo, thinly sliced
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
salt, pepper
250 ml cream - I use single cream
1 tbsp tomato purée
olive oil
Fry the chorizo in a little bit of olive oil until crispy. Remove from the pan, and fry the other sausage in the same pan. When it has browned a little, add garlic and onion, and fry for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chorizo again, stir in the cream and season with tomato purée and more salt and pepper if you'd like. Serve over pasta.

Winterthur's 49th Annual Antiques Show attracted over 60 distinguished antique dealers to the Chase Riverfront on Nov. 9-11.
Winterthur's 49th Annual Antiques Show did not disappoint this year, attracting over 60 distinguished antique dealers to the Chase Riverfront on Nov. 9-11.
As a rare treat, the show also featured a lecture and book-signing by Carolyne Roehm, an accomplished designer, author, and lifestyle guru. Roehm opened the show as the keynote speaker on Friday, November 9, at 10:00 am, with a lecture about her passion for design, followed by a book signing of her newly published work, Flowers.
This was Roehm's first visit to Winterthur's Antique show, and she was already engrossed in some beautiful watercolor prints from the Philadelphia Print Shop.
"I am not a collector of America antiques, but I have always loved botanical arts," Roehm said.
She said she just purchased a house in Charleston, South Carolina, and is looking forward to decorating it with European antiques.
This diversity of this year's show attracted numerous spectators, buyers and collectors. Dealers from all over the United States shared their antiques, ranging from decorative arts, furniture, paintings, rugs, ceramics, silver and jewelry.
A special loan exhibition, Color Counts, showcase Henry Francis du Pont's extraordinary sensitivity to color, whether it was in the garden, the collection, interior design, or entertaining. For his table settings, he meticulously arranged greenhouse and field-grown flowers; amethyst, ruby, cobalt, and green glassware; custom-dyed table linens; and his 54 sets of china.

General Strike Newsletter
This newsletter was produced in Croydon
during the General Strike in 1926.
Three and half million people
across the country
stayed away from work.
But many others ignored the strike,
or helped to break it
by volunteering to do essential work.
The newsletter encouraged people
to support the government.

Sidney explains how hard it was
for his dad to get a job:
"My dad got a job
as a plasterer's labourer,
with his brother.
sometimes he was working
80 to 90 hours a week -
because you had to,
and you were always
looking over your shoulder
in case someone stepped in
on your job.
They weren't there very long
because there came a slump
in the building trade,
and that was that.
And we had a period
of four to five years or so
when he was out of work.
And then
Dad finally got a job on
Corporation Tramways.
he was found a job
by a local councillor,
Councillor Keys,
who lived in Richmond Road,
Thornton Heath,
and mother used to do
various domestic work for him
and he was instrumental
in getting Dad this job.
And it was as a car cleaner,
what we'll call a car cleaner,
on permanent nights
at the Purley depot.
And it wouldn't have mattered
if he'd have been a toilet cleaner,
he'd have taken it;
this was a job.
And as far as he was concerned
that job was stability."
The General Strike
The early 1920s saw an economic slump
and high levels of unemployment
across Britain.
Two million people were out of work.
The coal industry was
particularly badly hit.
Early in 1926, coal miners went on strike
over threatened wage cuts.
The Trade Union Congress (T.U.C.)
called a General Strike in support.
The Strike began on 3 May.
The government was well-organised
in putting emergency measures in place.
Volunteers drove buses
and organised food convoys.
There was a lack of public support
and the TUC called off the strike
after nine days.
Three years later another economic slump
sent unemployment rates soaring.
By December 1930,
2.5 million people were out of work.

For Jerrod Niemann's new album Free the Music he decided to try something different. In addition to writing every song on the record, he used CLASP technology which allowed him to fuse old and new equipment during the recording process.
"I wrote every song on this new album Free the Music," he told CBS Local. "This particular album we were taking a certain direction instrumentally so I had to write music in the direction of the instruments we were going to be using. It was definitely a tough task."
A difficult process, Jerrod said whenever he hit a wall he would call up a friend to write with him.
"Sort of like when you can phone a friend. Doing that, you just know that they're so talented and they can hopefully knock the pebble off and begin the avalanche of the creative process," he said.
Jerrod says he enjoys writing songs by himself, and three of the tracks on the LP have just his songwriting credits.
"There are three songs on this album that I had the fortunate luck of writing by myself, but it took two years to write all of them, because it was a very meticulous process on this record," he said. "At the end of the day I always love being able to pick up the phone and sit down and collaborate with a friend that I know can always get me where I need to go."
Jerrod says what kicked off the thought process for his record was finding brand new technology called CLASP.
"What it allows you is to take the old analog reel to reel machines and it's actually compatible with today's technology and Pro Tools and what they use in the studio today," he said. "My friend actually invented the science behind it and it's amazing because you get to put the old analog tape machine in the signal process. So you record like normal but you get the fat thick analog sound that everybody used to love and use back in the day."
"Of course horns and acoustic instruments have always complimented analog since they were born together. So for me it was important to find a way not only to utilize those instruments but also to try to find our own way of using them," he said.
While horns have been such a big part of country music, even well before the pedal steel guitar, Jerrod said he was blown away to learn this fact in college.
"I think being able to be a producer, a songwriter, and an artist, it's important to educate yourself and hopefully the other country music fans out there," he said. "I'm not sure if our album will set any trends necessarily in an analog direction or horns. What I hope it will set is maybe certain thoughts. People [will] maybe dig a little deeper into the studio and realize the sky is the limit."
"One thing about Nashville is we always respect our forefathers and sisters who built country music before us. At the end of the day it's exciting to grab horns from Bob Wills, Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard and take that old technology but transform it into a new sound in our own way. Hopefully people will follow suit and at least open their mind. Something that makes them think outside the box."
Jerrod's album Free the Music and his newest single "Only God Could Love You More" are available now.

I AM AGAINST the death penalty in principle. The deliberate killing of prisoners does not demonstrate our society's respect for life, which we are trying to teach—especially to those who violate it. We simply should not kill to show we are against killing. It's also easy to make a, yes, fatal mistake, as alarming DNA testing has demonstrated, revealing some death row inmates to be innocent. In addition, the death penalty is clearly biased against poorer people, who cannot afford adequate legal representation, and is outrageously disproportionate along racial lines. The facts are that few white-collar killers sit on death row, and fewer are ever executed. And there is no evidence that capital punishment deters murder; the data just doesn't show that.
At a retreat I attended a couple of years ago, conservative activist Richard Viguerie approached me and said, "Jim, let's do something together to really shake up politics." Viguerie had become a friend, so I asked him what that might be. "I am a Catholic," Viguerie said. "I am against the death penalty, and I think it's time for conservatives and liberals who agree on that to begin to work together." I was fascinated at the thought of unlikely partners helping to accomplish that together. So we have had several dinner meetings over the last two years with both conservative and liberal leaders—mostly people of faith—to discuss the issue.

Niwot officials on Friday urged residents to cut back on water usage after the volume of water into its sanitation plant quadrupled.
"If you can avoid doing laundry or taking long showers we would really appreciate it because that would help a great deal," said Gayle Packard, general manager of the Niwot Sanitation District.
She said normally the plant processes 600,000 gallons of wastewater a day, and with flooding the plant now has 2.5 million gallons per day.
"They can flush," she said. "We don't want to create a health problem."
The concern is keeping the right mix of microbes in the water to adequately treat sewage before it leaves the plant, Packard said.
"The water from the flooding goes into the manholes and just pours into our plant," she said. "We have every pump going."
The sanitation district serves the towns of Niwot and Gunbarrel.

Karnataka vs Bangladesh A match is a 3-day match and the match will be played on 22, 23 & 24th September, 2015. Karnataka is the current champions in all premier domestic Indian championships, Ranji Trophy, Irani Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy.
Bangladesh A vs Karnataka match will be played in Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadiyar Ground at Mysore, India. Live score update & commentary of BAN A vs KARNATAKA is available on RootsBD.com.
Bangladesh A vs Karnataka match will give a good practice of longer version cricket for Bangladesh national team members before the Australia Test Series in October.
After losing the ODI series 2-1 against India A, Bangladesh A are now gearing up to face Karnataka in a 3-day match, which will begin in Mysore on Tuesday 22 Sep, 2015. Bangladesh A had a mixed time of it in the ODIs, losing the first and last game and, in between, taming the visitors in the second match. Bangladesh A will be hoping for a more full-fledged effort against Karnataka, more so since Karnataka haven't announced a full-strength squad.
In the Ban A vs Karnataka match, Karnataka would be led by R Vinay Kumar, who played a few ODIs for India some years back, but failed to impress. He will be expected to lead the attack for sure against Bangladesh A. Karnataka are weakened because they are without the services of some of their key players like Lokesh Rahul, Stuart Binny, Karun Nair and Manish Pandey. These four gentleman are part of India's 30-member preparatory squad for the South Africa series. However, Karnataka will have the services of Robin Uthappa, who is considered among the most dangerous batsmen in the team.
Uthappa has been on the fringes of selection recently, and even made a comeback to the international side in the absence of MS Dhoni. Unfortunately, he could not make use of the opportunities. With his selection in the Karnataka team for this game, he gets another chance to make an impression. With Dhoni still commanding a place in the ODI and T20 squads, Uthappa will need to do incredibly well in case he wants to replace him as wicket-keeper batsman, or even if he wants a spot in the team as a specialist batsman.
Mayank Agarwal is also part of the Karnataka team for the Mysore clash. He had a reasonably good one-day series against Bangladesh A, and thus would be confident of carrying on with his good work in the three-day game as well. The other key batsmen in the squad include R Samarth and CM Gautam. If you look at their bowling attack, skipper Vinay Kumar will be supported by HS Sharath and David Mathias in the pace department. There is a definitely a weakness here as Abhimanyu Mithun and S Arvind, the two experienced players, have not been included in the team. The spin department includes Shreyas Gopal, J Suchith and Udit Patel.
Although Bangladesh A lost the ODI series, they proved that they can compete. Nasir Hossain was sensational in the second match, and the visitors would be hoping for more such performances against Karnataka. Wicket-keeper Litton Das has been extremely consistent with the bat, but they would need more out of the likes of Anamul Haque, Rony Talukdar, Soumya Sarkar and Mominul Haque himself. In the bowling department, Bangladesh A would be looking forward to good efforts from Arafat Sunny, Rubel Hossain, Shafiul Islam, Taskin Ahmed, and Shuvagata Hom among others.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences last week released preliminary plans for its $300 million Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences museum in Los Angeles, designed by Renzo Piano and Zoltan Pali.
The scheme involves converting the historic Wiltshire May Company building at Wilshire Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue into a 290,000-sf museum. A massive glass dome will be built on the north side of the building and will house a 1,000-seat theater, according to LA Times' Architecture Critic Christopher Hawthorne.
Located next to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) campus, the museum will exhibit the work of Oscar winners and nominees, and, as the Academy puts it, "pull back the curtain on moviemaking and highlight the history and future of the arts and sciences of film."
Here's an overview of the design scheme, courtesy of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences:

The Perils of Not Being ParallelBy Michael Vizard | Posted 2008-02-21 Print
Failure to code for multicore processors will paralyze enterprises.
If you work at a company that depends on just about any type of software to maintain a competitive edge over your rivals, the foundation you count on to provide that edge is quite literally changing right beneath your feet.
Driving this fundamental change to all things software is a new generation of multicore processors that everybody knows about but, as yet, does not fully appreciate. That's because, just as with every great innovation that comes our way, we tend to use new things to do the same old things faster. In this case, we're using multicore processors to run existing single-threaded applications faster.
What we're not doing en masse is writing applications in parallel so that different parts of the application are executed simultaneously. Generally referred to as parallel programming, this new approach to software has the potential to help companies that adopt it first gain a substantial first-mover advantage over their competitors.
That's what Jeffrey Birnbaum, chief technology architect at Merrill Lynch, expects to see happen. It's still early days when it comes to parallel programming and there is an acute shortage of parallel programming talent, but Birnbaum is advising his colleagues that they might be ignoring the most radical change in computing in the past 30 years to their peril. As he puts it, the opportunity to leapfrog competitors by making the right investments is definitely at hand.
The problem for the industry as a whole is that the past four generations of programmers have been living in the shadow of a Moore's Law construct that promised them their applications would double in performance every 18 months — even if they did next to nothing to make that happen. As a result, many of them have become lax about optimizing code to get the best performance out of it.
Worse yet, Java or Microsoft application development tools have allowed programmers to develop applications at a high level of abstraction. The end result is that many of them are no longer familiar with the actual memory architecture of the underlying system. But in order to build a successful parallel application, you need to be familiar with the underlying memory system that powers that application. In other words, we all need to get close to the metal again.
Birnbaum fears we may be laying the groundwork for a major software crisis because most of the universities in the world have not taught the limited number of programmers we have how to develop applications in parallel. Some, like the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada, are reworking their curriculum. However, corporations are going to need to fund the retraining of multiple generations of programmers. And, as we all know, retraining anybody who has been doing something a particular way for a number of years is a hit-or-miss proposition.
Longer term, the rise of multicore processors will foster changes in the design of systems themselves. For the past 10 years, system design has tended to lean heavily on complex processors that owe much of their lineage to the concepts first brought forth by RISC processors. An alternative approach may be to rely more on a large number of simpler Pentium-class processors sharing the same memory core.
What might emerge from this is a model in which the number of cores available on the market doubles every 18 months, while the power of the individual processors attached to those cores remains relatively stable. Some pundits refer to this doubling of the number of memory cores as the "New Moore's Law."
Of course, there will still be some need for complex processors attached to multiple cores for some compute-intensive applications. However, hundreds of low-cost Pentium-class processors sharing the same memory core could theoretically handle most data-processing applications just fine. That approach would cost less, use less electricity and throw off fewer carbons.
It will be awhile before all the great minds work through all the new system permutations made possible by multicore processors. But we can already see their potential today, so the only unknown question is how many corporations are going to have the intellectual capital at hand to take advantage of them. Those that do are likely to become the leading players in their vertical industry segments, while those that don't may be wondering just what went wrong for years to come.

This article was reported by Harvard School of Public Health News.
Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) News reported on a study of a special multivitamin with selenium that could slow progression to ill health significantly in HIV-positive individuals. HSPH researchers studied the effect of multivitamins on the health of HIV-positive persons since they tend to have deficiencies in micronutrients such as B vitamins, vitamin C and E, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and folic acid. The lack of these substances may hasten disease. Also, the trace element selenium helps support the immune system.
The researchers, including Richard Marlink, executive director of the HSPH AIDS Initiative and the Bruce A. Beal, Robert L. Beal, and Alexander S. Beal Professor of the Practice of Public Health at HSPH, followed up on a 2004 Tanzanian study. The Tanzanian study suggested that HIV-positive pregnant women who took a certain multivitamin remained healthier longer than those who did not. These women were in different stages of HIV before antiretroviral treatment (ART) was available to them. The researchers conducted a new randomized, controlled study from 2004 to 2009 in Botswana with 878 HIV-positive women who were not pregnant and men who had never been treated with ART. The researchers divided participants into four groups; each group received either a multivitamin alone, selenium alone, a combination of multivitamins plus selenium, or placebo.
Results showed that participants who received the multivitamin with selenium had an approximately 50-percent reduced risk of getting sick or dying from AIDS during the 24 months of study, and they were more likely to have higher CD4 counts. Marlink warned that multivitamins should not be considered a substitute for ART for persons with low CD4 counts, as ART is very effective in maintaining health and preventing AIDS for a very long time. He explained that depending on the African country, only approximately half of the need for ART has been met, so anything else that can be done for the HIV-positive individuals who do not yet have access to ART is helpful.
The full report, "Effect of Micronutrient Supplementation on Disease Progression in Asymptomatic, Antiretroviral-Naive, HIV-Infected Adults in Botswana: A Randomized Clinical Trial," was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (2013; 310(20):2154-2163 doi:10.1001/jama.2013.280923)

Grab a tarball of MythStreamTV from here (not a direct link - read the text in the table to help decide which version is necessary).
Unpack the tarball with
tar xvf mythstreamtv.tar
(amend as applicable)
Move into the newly created mythstreamtv directory and as root, run
Enter the following information:
- MythStreamTV Directory (The program directory where MythStreamTV will be stored)
- MythWeb HTTP Directory (Location of MythWeb files.)
- MythStreamTV Server Address (IP address or hostname you would like to stream from.)
- MythStreamTV Server Port (Port number you would like to stream from.)
- MythStreamTV Server Stream Admin Port (This is the port number VLC http admin runs.)
- MythStreamTV User:Group? (User and group to be used for MythStreamTV Directory.)
- Path to where vlc is installed (Location of the vlc binary on your system.)
The next step (with 0.19-fixes MythWeb) is to ensure that includes/init.php (within the mythweb dir.) has the line
'streamtv' => null,
(note the 'tv' part)
underneath the lines containing
'tv' => null, 'video' => null, 'music' => null,
Using MythStreamTV
At the top of MythWeb there should now be a link that says 'Stream Program'.
When the 'Stream Program' link is clicked, MythWeb should show a list of recorded/recording programs. Select the show/shows you would like to see and click the 'Select Recording and Continue' button.
Now select the Codec and Stream Speed to use and click 'Start Live Stream'. In the Log window a message should appear that the VLC session was able to start successfully.
Now click the MMS link. If your mimetype has been properly configured it should launch an MMS viewer ie: Mplayer or Window Media Player. If your mimetype for MMS is broken you may enter the MMS link directly into your MMS player.
The MythStreamTV admin port connects locally and does not need to be opened from an external firewall. MythWeb launches a script that sends the command to the vlc admin port locally and controls the stream.
- If no video is selected, MythStreamTV will kill the current VLC session being streamed. The "Stop Streaming" button can also be used to kill the streaming.
For installation help or bugs please visit the support forum on SourceForge http://sourceforge.net/projects/mythstreamtv/

The University of Minnesota has agreed to allow the Vikings to play at the Golden Gophers' TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis as the Vikings' new stadium is constructed, the university said Wednesday.
The deal must be approved by the university's Board of Regents, the university's governing body. The board is slated to vote on the agreement Friday.
According to the Associated Press, TCF Bank Stadium would be the home field of the Vikings in 2014 and 2015 if the agreement is approved.
TCF Bank Stadium opened in 2009 and seats 50,720 people. The stadium was pressed into NFL action late in 2010 when heavy snow caused the roof at Mall of America Field — long known as the Metrodome — to collapse. TCF Bank Stadium hosted the Vikings' December game vs. Chicago — a game that could very well go down as Brett Favre's final NFL start.
The Vikings' final season at the Metrodome is 2013.

Small Animal Food Guide
You can find food mixtures specifically made for each of the popular small pets. These food mixes are formulated for the dietary needs of each animal, and help provide a well-rounded diet.
You may find it easiest to feed from a heavy ceramic bowl, as it is less likely to be knocked over (creating a mess to clean up) in the cage by your pet when it runs and plays.
Never feed your small pet a mixture formulated for a different species. Rabbit food can be harmful to smaller animals, for example.
Most small animals will enjoy supplementary treats such as fresh fruit and vegetables. Make sure to feed in small pieces though, and only as much as your pet will eat. This avoids the problem of moldy food developing in the cage. Try to limit the amount of treats that are high in sugar or fat, as this can lead to obesity.
Guinea Pigs, Chinchillas and Rabbits also require a constant supply of hay (timothy hay is recommended). These small animals chew on hay to balance their diet and to grind down their teeth which grow continuously. Many of the animals will also use the hay as bedding.
A supply of fresh water must be available at all times for your small pet. The easiest way to ensure this is to purchase a water bottle which hangs on the side of the cage. This eliminates the problem of spilled water from a dish as well. As some small animals may not know how to use a water bottle, a water dish may be necessary to ensure they receive the water they require. Water should be changed daily.
For increased nutrition, you can also purchase vitamin drops which can be added to your pet's water. Be sure to change the water regularly to maintain freshness.

EDITOR'S NOTE: The Times-Call's series Take Two revisits people we have written about in the past year. Take Two stories run on Mondays.
LONGMONT -- For three years, Mead High School's class of 2012 was at the top of its game.
The school's first sophomore class also was its first graduating class. Jessica Smolenske, president of last year's National Honor Society, was one of two student speakers during last spring's first senior night; her best friend, Samantha Kalwitz -- who goes by Sam -- was Mead High's first senior-year homecoming queen more than a year ago.
The two have just finished their first semester at college. Smolenske is majoring in natural resources management at Colorado State University in Fort Collins.
"I just really want to save the world," Smolenske said, admitting she's not sure how exactly to do that. "It's all going to fall into place."
Kalwitz is attending business school at the University of Colorado at Boulder, focusing on entrepreneurship and small-business management. She plans to "open something" but doesn't yet know what that will be.
The high school honor roll students said Thursday that they were surprised by how much they have to study in college. Kalwitz, who said she never had to study in high school, said she did so for seven hours a day this fall.
Even as they questioned whether high school prepared them for college, they wouldn't change anything, the women said. Being thrown into college and figuring it out on her own was the best way to go, Smolenske said.
Looking at next semester, Kalwitz said she now knows how to study: "I'm looking forward to doing everything better."
Being at separate colleges is the first time Smolenske and Kalwitz haven't attended the same school, but they know they made the best decisions for themselves.
"I absolutely love Fort Collins," Smolenske said. "I literally meet new people every single day."
Kalwitz loves seeing the Flatirons and seeing "so many weird people." The food in Boulder is delicious as well, she said.
"I don't think there's anything I don't like about it," she said.
Smolenske can't imagine attending CU, and Kalwitz said she wouldn't fit in in Fort Collins.
"I'm so Boulder, and she's not," Kalwitz said, nodding toward Smolenske. "They just fit our personalities so well."

The 2013 edition of The Mormon Miracle Pageant will be held June 20-22, and 25-29 in Manti, UT
The Mormon Miracle Pageant is an annual production retelling the story of Joseph Smith and his followers. Joseph Smith is considered by the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS or Mormons) to be a prophet of God. The story tells how Joseph translated the Book of Mormon, a record of ancient inhabitants of the Americas which was inscribed on gold plates, and follows the struggles of Joseph Smith and his followers through persecution and their travels west to settle in the Sanpete Valley of the Utah territory. The pageant was first produced in 1967 as a local effort, based on a 1950 book The Mormon Miracle. Today, a cast of over 500 reenacts events important to the story. The Pageant is held "under the stars", and is free. The presentation takes place at the foot of the Historic Manti Temple, with 14,000 chairs provided. Contact toll free 866-961-9040, 435-835-3000 or email Pageant committee.
Manti is located on Historic Highway #89 in Central Utah, in the beautiful Sanpete Valley. When visiting the Pageant, include an activity or two to make it a complete getaway. There are more than 1000 miles of forest trails in the central Utah area designated for ATV and OHV use. The area is famous for the 350 mile long Arapeen ORV Trail. Or visit the Palisades State Park for golf or any for the numerous "fishin' holes" available in nearby canyons.
For lodging when attending the Pageant, or any of the other Sanpete County recreational activities or events, contact the Historic Manti House Inn, which is across Main Street from the Temple, or The Yardley Inn & Spa, just a few block from the Pageant site. Or just north of Manti is the Scott Farm B & B in Spring City. Manti area Bed and Breakfast Inns of Utah member Innkeepers are a wealth of knowledge of what to see and what to do. They may even share information on their own favorite hidden spots – the locals' knowledge that makes any stay better.

Anita (Nene) Louise Parker (Hammonds), age 54, passed away peacefully at her home in rural Lansing, Kan., on Monday, Nov. 5, 2012.
Anita was born Feb. 14, 1958, at Little Rock AFB, Ark., to Porter and Laura Hammonds. When Anita's father retired from the Air Force in 1964, the family settled in Orlando, Fla., where she lived until 1981. Anita graduated from Oak Ridge High School in 1976; music was her passion and she sang in numerous vocal groups while attending Oak Ridge, Contemporary Ensemble was her favorite. Anita's music teacher, Mr. Rawls, was her inspiration and mentor; he encouraged her to pursue her passion. After graduation Anita went on to sing professionally for the next five years.
Anita married Jim Parker on Oct. 21, 1981, at the McCoy AFB chapel Orlando, Fla. and embarked on the next phase of her life as an Air Force wife and mom. Over the course of the next 21 years, Anita and her family lived in ten different locations as diverse and interesting as Keflavik, Iceland and Kalkar, Germany. Following Jim's retirement in 2001, the family settled in Lansing, Kan., where they have lived for the past 11 years.
After moving to Kansas, Anita worked as a para-educator in the Lansing Middle School; in this position she assisted special education students to reach their full potential. Her students learned quickly Mrs. Parker was a teacher ready to be their biggest supporter but also a tough cookie; as the mother of three boys, she had seen it all and you weren't going to get away with anything!
Anita was a devoted military mom with two sons currently serving on active duty and a third son a former Air National Guardsman; she was very proud of her boys!
Anita dearly cherished her family and her pets, Charlie a golden retriever and Zoey a calico cat. Her hobbies and interests included gardening, antiques, walking and exercise. One of Anita's favorite activities was her exercise class where she enjoyed the exercise almost as much as the love and support of her "exercise gals". Anita raised wonderful tomatoes and went so far as to cover all of her 21 tomato plants with burlap during the hot summer afternoons. She loved vacationing in the Adirondacks and hiking in the mountains. Anita had a heart for the Lord and was an active member of every military chapel where she and her family were stationed, most recently the Ft. Leavenworth Main Post Chapel.
Anita is survived by her husband James "Jim" of Lansing, Kan.; three sons, Christopher of Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo., Daniel of Ft. Collins, Colo. and Steven of Greenville, Texas; her mother, Laura Hammonds (Mizzell) of Orlando, Fla.; two sisters and one brother-in-law, Wanda Gerry of Orlando, Fla. and Yvonne (Bonnie) and Charles (Chuck) Gallagher of San Antonio, Texas; one brother and sister-in-law, Mike and Rita (Hamon) Hammonds of Oviedo, Fla.; four nephews, one niece, one great-nephew and three great-nieces. Anita was preceded in passing by her father Porter Hammonds.
Anita will be remembered during a memorial service on Monday, Nov. 12, 2012 at 10 a.m. at the R.L Leintz Funeral Home, 4701 10th Avenue, Leavenworth, KS 66048 (913-351-0200); Chaplain (MAJ, USA) Donald Carrothers will officiate. The family requests any memorials be donated to the American Cancer Society Fight Against Pancreatic Cancer: American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 22718, Oklahoma City, OK 73123-1718 or online at www.cancer.org.

Thanks to the people at Seadoo they were great! Nice enough to not only lend out their skies but also a wet suit and a life jacket!
I decided to ride the 3D that I have heard so much about. I only rode it in the sit down position but that was enough. Even before I got the ski going the man from Seadoo told me that I would get some splash in the face, well I think I drank about 10 gallons of water and I didn't even fall off. I had a great time on the 3D and would like to try it as a stand-up, but for the sit down I would recommend using goggles!

Jacob Buchholtz 1840 - 1917
Jacob Buchholtz was born 4 Mar 1840 in Luxembourg. By 1864, at the age of 24, Jacob and possibly his brother Peter had made their way to the United States. Two years later, he meets his lovely, Katherina and marries her. Katherina was also of Luxembourg and came to the United States at the age of 8. By 1870, Jacob is residing in Escanaba, Michigan and listed as a laborer with his young wife and family, Anna and Willie. In the following census, Jacob Buchholtz tells the census enumerator that he is "keeping a saloon." His family has grown with the addition of Hannah and Jacob Jr.
Delta County Genealogical Society of Michigan has a treasure trove of genealogy material and many specific details of Jacob's life emerge from service of the historians of his county. Jacob voted in 1881 and was not yet a citizen of the U.S. From the 1884, Proceedings of the Council of the City of Escanaba, I learn that his bond to deal liquor had been approved and again later in 1887. On 31 March 1888, he files his declaration of intent, then follows up with his petition for naturalization in July 1909 and becomes a U.S. citizen.
There is so much to explore, so I have requested additional records to learn more about Luxembourg and Delta County, Michigan life events of Mr. Buchholtz. Stay tuned for Part II.
