Camp-Over 2017: a really enjoyable day and night
We hope that everyone had a great time at Farfield Camp-Over 2017. We were lucky with the weather yet again and everything seemed to go to plan: the White Rose Cheerleaders and juggler Matthew Tiffany entertained us and the Obstacle Course was a big hit with competitive families. As usual, the water fight went on for hours whilst the gazeebo with nails and face painting, glitter tattoos and 'hairdos' was very busy for a couple of hours. Mrs James and Mrs Galbraith had our younger children singing and listening to stories around a small campfire and lots of slightly older children were making dens. Chickens were fed and eggs were collected. There was a constant stream of people playing cricket and tennis, whilst the appearance of the tug of war rope led to much huffing and puffing (and plenty of laughter). After a delicious dinner (thanks Claire and Trish), musical duo Sebastopher entertained us handsomely for a couple of hours, and had some people dancing, before we all went up to the fire and many a marshmallow was roasted (and burned).
After a reasonably quiet night, a fantastic breakfast was served in the infants thanks to a brilliant group of early-morning volunteers led by Claire in the kitchen. The sun was shining and the site was cleared by lunchtime (many hands make lighter work!).
Many, many thanks to everyone that supported the Camp-Over, especially our brilliant PTA and volunteers led by Diane Walton. Once again, they did a magnificent job: well done!

Another fantastic camp over. This is what Farfield does best, really fun family time for everyone. We're really going to miss this, might have to gatecrash next year!
Fabulous pictures that sum up the day perfectly. Everyone looks so happy and chilled out!
This was our first experience of the camp over and we absolutely LOVED it, it was nothing short of the best school event imaginable. The grandparents have been to a few school fetes in their time and were so impressed with the wholesome activities on offer which made for so much fun for the whole family. We're already looking forward to future camp overs and staying the night once the kids are older. Thank you and well done!!!
Thanks for another great campover. Never disappoints. If only we could stretch to 2 nights!! The kids loved making memories with friends and so did we. Loved the mix of activities and sebastopher were brilliant. Thanks to the PTA, all the volunteers and everyone who made it special. Xxx
As always, a fantastic campover! Everyone had a brilliant time and it is always so lovely to see kids just running around and being kids, in a safe and family friendly environment. Thank you!
The camp over is the highlight of the school year for our kids! Thankfully, the pre-booked sunshine arrived and we all had a fantastic time again. The assault course was a hit as was just the freedom of having the run of the school grounds for our kids. Really enjoyed Sebastopher's entertainment again and want to say a big thanks to Mr Harris, Diane and everyone who makes it happen! ???
Only stopped for the afternoon, really enjoyed! Fantastic atmosphere!
Thank you to everyone involved in this year's Camp Over. It was another really great event. I know a lot of hard work went into making it happen and I hope those that volunteered got to enjoy the day and spend some time with your friends and family too. We had a really lovely afternoon and barely saw our kids who were having too much fun to be with us!
Another brilliant day/weekend (seems to get better each year!). Great to see such a relaxed atmosphere, in which the kids could 'be kids' (ours LOVED the assault course). Thank you 🙂
We had another fantastic time at campover this year. The kids get so much enjoyment from being 'free'. We hardly saw the big ones who were off playing with their friends. This type of event is what makes Farfield stand out from other schools. Thank you to those who made it happen.
This was our first camp at the school and it just confirmed what an amazing school Farfield is. We are so lucky that our boy will be going in September. It was organised impeccably and there was so much to do. Every moment was filled with fun, food, music and sweets. Our two year old really enjoyed feeding the chickens.
Events like this really bring the FF community together – meeting up with other parents and letting the kids be kids in a relaxed atmosphere, which can only be achieved by a lot of hard work on the part of the organisers. Put me down on the volunteer list for next year, hopefully this will be a date in the diary for many years to come.
Where do I start….I feel so lucky that Jack attends Farsley Farfield, I already knew it was an amazing school but its event like this that make Farsley Farfield really stand out from the rest. Last year although I was part of the event through the PTA, I never got to experience it in all its glory until this year when Jack and I got the fully "camp over" experience. I like everyone else hardly saw my son – he was busy experiencing every single stall/event with his friends. His favourite being the water fight!! (good job I packed for a weeks holiday the amount of clothes he went through). It was so refreshing (especially in the world we live in today) to see kids being kids – having somewhere safe to play with not a care in the world. There was something for everyone. Being part of the PTA has allowed me to see this event from the planning stages to the event it all its glory this weekend. Diane has done an outstanding job – what would we do without her? I hope the PTA has raised bucket loads of money and thank you for allowing myself and Jack to be part of it. Speaking to Jack after the camp over I asked his views and this response I think sums up the views of most of the children…."Mummy it was EPIC! Can we do it again next year?"
It looks like everyone had a fantastic time! So glad the sun came out to play. Well done to the PTA who did a great job x
It looks like everyone had an amazing time and lots of memories were made. Such a shame I was unable to come. ?
Yet another fabulous school campover. Both our kids had a terrific time. The assualt course was a great hit & we all loved listening to Mr Sharp & Sebastopher in the evening. Such a great atmosphere. Many, many thanks to everyone involved. Farfield is such an amazing school!
We had a brilliant time too! Stans highlights include the tug of war, obstacle course and water fight.
Big thanks to everyone who planned and organised the day, we really do appreciate all the hard work. ???
Fantastic event – just gets better and better! thank you.

The Florida Department of Transportation is expected to get $750,000 in federal funding back because the Alachua County Commission decided in late September that it didn't want the money after all.
The Florida Department of Transportation is expected to get $750,000 in federal funding back because the Alachua County Commission decided in late September that it didn't want the money after all.
The money had been earmarked for creating a portion of the Archer Braid Trail — a bicycle path that will connect the city of Archer to the University of Florida and beyond — through Haile Plantation in Gainesville. Residents' opposition, however, led the commission to decide against that route, instead favoring one that directly connects Archer Road to Tower Road — meaning the federal money would go elsewhere.
But Florida's state and local governments don't get that much federal money to reject — not compared with the federal taxes the state pays, anyway.
Florida residents pay more each year in federal taxes than is received in federal grants to state and local governments, which makes Florida a so-called donor state, according to a 2011 report from Florida TaxWatch, a nonprofit research institute.
Based on data from fiscal year 2009, the report found Florida ranked 48th out of 50 states in the federal grants it received per capita. That was a net increase of just one spot in 12 years, even as the state has grown in population.
The County Commission could change its mind about the trail path, but the longer it waits, the more difficult that becomes given timetable constraints, said Jeff Hays, the county's transportation planning manager.
Residents in favor of the Haile Plantation path have expressed concern about the fate of the $750,000 in federal DOT money allocated for the route, which would be returned to FDOT's District 2. The district includes other counties that could receive the rejected money.
County Commissioner Lee Pinkoson said the disparity between Florida and other states is frustrating but that local governments have to make do with what they can get.
"You have to deal with what hand you're dealt, and hopefully, at some point in time, that'll change," he said.
Florida might not receive as high of a return in grant money as other states, but that doesn't mean federal money should be used just because it's offered, County Commissioner Susan Baird said. If a project isn't necessary, as she felt the Haile Plantation route wasn't, the government should let that money be used elsewhere, she said.
"Why take free money when it's not free?" she asked. "It's costing us all on a national level."
The Alachua County Commission isn't alone among Florida governments that have rejected federal money.
Gov. Rick Scott rejected $2.4 billion in federal funding for a high-speed rail service from Orlando to Tampa in February 2011, citing concerns about the potential burden it could heft onto state taxpayers. Most of that money later was redistributed to 15 other states.
Scott has said he wants to turn down an expansion of Medicaid, which preliminary figures show would lead the state to lose out on $2.1 billion in federal funding but save only $3.9 million in the next fiscal year, according to The Associated Press.
At the regional level, the Marion County Commission voted in March 2011 to reject state or federal grants that required putting up local taxpayers' money as well, with the exception of those involving infrastructure projects, according to the Ocala Star-Banner.
Baird said federal money should be used for necessities, such as infrastructure, and not be allocated for what she considers discretionary uses such as the Haile Plantation route.
She said she has heard the argument that if the county doesn't use federal funding, somebody else will take it. For her, she said the key is determining whether the project that would be funded is necessary.
"But if it's between wasting it and giving it back, I'll give it back. And I'm hoping that somebody else will use it better," she said.
Florida likely will continue to be a top donor state as it has been in years past, Kurt Wenner, vice president of tax research for Florida TaxWatch, said in an email to The Sun.
"It is doubtful that will change much in the near future," he said in the email. "Florida is, and will likely continue to be, a top donor state."
In 2009, Florida spent $1.14 in federal taxes per dollar of federal aid it received, according to the Florida TaxWatch report. It paid about $110 billion in federal taxes, or 4.7 percent of the combined total for all states, but received only 4.1 percent, or $22.7 billion, of federal grants.
If its share in grants had equaled its share of taxes, it would have received an additional $3.2 billion in aid, according to TaxWatch.
In federal transportation funding, which would have been used for the Haile Plantation path, Florida ranked 50th in 2009.
Transportation funding largely comes from gas taxes, Hays said.
"You go to the pump, you pay for your gas. You have some local tax in there, some state gas tax and some federal tax," he said. "Some of the money goes up to the federal government but has to come back down."
Federal grants, for transportation or any other need, are the primary way Alachua County gets monetary support for its projects at the national level, said Rick Mills, the county's budget director and former legislative affairs director.
But the county's bargaining capacity was reduced this fiscal year when the commission approved a budget that eliminated Mills' former gig as legislative affairs director and shifted some of those duties to Communications Coordinator Mark Sexton.
The commission also cut the county's annual budget for lobbying services from $60,000 to $30,000, Sexton said.
In a time of tight budgets, and given Florida's limited receipt of federal grants, the County Commission must prioritize the projects it wants to accomplish and the funding alternatives commissioners want to pursue, Sexton said.
The Archer Braid Trail is a key priority for the county, Pinkoson said. The commission decided against the Haile Plantation route, and thus gave up its claim to $750,000 in federal money, but the trail still will be created.
"It may not be the route that was done on paper," Pinkoson said. "We will get a trail built, and it allows some other municipality or county to get a project done that they felt was important."

Oooh, and keep your eyes peeled mid-March, cause I'm going to try to set up a Claudia's Room March Madness bracket! 'Cause I love me some college basketball, no snarkiness at all.
Okay, this is another cover that actually shows shit that happens in the book...
No, David Michael hasn't joined a Rooster Cult; he's in a play (The Brememtown Musicians) and he has a totally lame costume.
Is Watson really that fat? I always pictured him as bald and kinda lanky...I think I recall that from an illustration from one of the Super Specials.
And why does Emily's jumpsuit have color-coordinated shin guards? Cause bitch totally stole that look from me.
Watson has a heart attack, then decides to take some time off work, and Nannie moves out cause she thinks they don't want or need her around anymore. But things get crazy, and then Nannie moves back in, and Watson works from home 3 hours a day and everything is all better.
S-s-s-s-s-subplot: Mrs. Marshall is a fucking bitch cow hag. She keeps hiring one sitter than springing another three kids on her (bringing the grand total to FIVE FUCKING YOUNG CHILDREN FOR ONE SITTER). When the girls start bringing help in the form of another BSCer, Mrs. Hag gets pissy and refuses to pay for two sitters. And she not once doubts the wisdom of leaving five kids with an 11-year-old. Finally, things blow up and Stacey refuses to sit for them when Mrs. Bitch Cow [that's totally a "word," RNL. Whatever, I'll make it up if I want!] pulls that shit again. Then Kristy finally confronts her and tra-la-la happy fucking ending.
The finer points:
- Watson. My good man. Try using a shovel if the car is stuck. Before you try to push. Just saying this as someone who got plowed into a few New England parking lots and driveways...
- And the "Karen" for Most Specific Job Description Ever in a BSC Book goes to...Watson Brewer! CEO of Unity Insurance in Stamford! You can give your acceptance speech when you get out of the hospital!
- Kristy is "nuts" about her grandmother. Which just seems...like an odd way to describe a familial relationship.
- I hate fake gossip. I don't care about Sabrina Bouvier. And at this point, ghostwriter, you're just showing off. "Oh, look at me! I've read other BSC books before writing one!"
- The only outfit (other than David Michael's costume): "This winter Claud's been into hats. She buys old hats in thrift stores and covers them in sequins, buttons, and really outrageous feathers. Usually she wears them with one of her super trendy outfits, like a red long underwear shirt with tiny black-and-white polka dot suspenders, pinstripe trousers, and ruby sequined slippers." When was that super trendy? And how the fuck would Kristy "Queen of the Sweatshirts" know what was super trendy. Super trendy. Say it, it's fun!
- "Luv with a capital L." More like lame withe a capital F-U-C-K-I-N-G.
- Kristy doesn't go in for all that "goopy stuff." Ew, she's so dirty...
- Did you know that you can't like reading, knitting AND sports? I certainly didn't...Now, which one of these am I going to have to give up?
- Aw, Logan "manages to charm everyone with his Kentucky accent." I might know somebody like that...[Ahem. Speaking of Kentucky accents, I had an apartment full of Kentucky boys last weekend, and I don't think one of them liked to babysit. Shocking.]
- I really have no desire to read that super special with the weddings...It's referenced in this book, and it doesn't sound amusing. AT ALL.
- Aw, Kristy calls Watson her father. And, like, saves his life or something.
- Can they really hold the school bus for a kid to run back inside? I think all my bus drivers would've been all "He-ELL no!"
- This book apparently ran so low on plot that they summarized like five other BSC books in passing.
- The no one ever ages in these books phenomenon even extends to Dawn's six months in Cali; the kids haven't aged a day in six months. Literally.
- Ever noticed how many parents in the 'Brook are so desperate to get away from their kids they leave them in less than safe situations?
- Has Eleanor Marshall always said a w instead of an r? "Tweasure," for example. Cause it's more nauseating than cute.
- Also, did the BSC really never ask how many kids they'd be sitting for? I kinda recall it in the past. And they don't have a per child rate? That doesn't seem like smart business...
- Ah, "QRU. Call for Help. Rescue Rangers. Alert! And Emergency Room." Remember in the 90s, when there were 30 million medical dramas? Good times.
- These people make banners for every single thing that ever happens...I need to start doing that. Oh, wait. No, I really fucking don't.
- Claymate? Oh, a Claymate! No, I don't think that's right either...Maybe they mean Play-Doh?
- "Charlie had installed an intercom system to let Watson call almost anywhere in the house." Is he a master electrician in addition to a chauffeur? Lucky guy...Besides, wouldn't walkie-talkies have been easier?
- Karen calls her mom & stepdad's house "the little house." Bet they luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv that.
- Karen has reading glasses and regular glasses? At 7?
- I realize these girls are really only kids, but they never fucking call the parents (of their sitting charges) out for being dickholes.
- Oh, it's so sad. Nannie feels pushed out...Watch me...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
- [That was me getting bored and falling asleep.]
- Nannie winds up with kickass apartment for a few weeks. But she gives up a beautiful place of her own to take care of somebody else's kids, don't worry.
- They apparently never told any clients about the "more than one sitter for more than three kids" rule. Why doesn't that really shock me?
- In fact, they don't even tell Mrs. Marshall the rule when they have the opportunity. Dumbasses.
- Karen has a "meltdown." And acts like a 14-year-old. You know, sulky, emo-style. But she's only 7. They grow up so fast.
- Wait, Kristy has to pay for her own school lunches? For real? Cause that's pretty low-rent, Daddy Watson-bucks.
- "Good Cluck on Your Opening." Fuck. Ing. Lame.
- Blah, happy ending.
How do you like them apples? By which, of course, I mean your breasts. Heh.
That's all for this week, kids.
PS-I'm a little loopy, so forgive me any spelling or grammars slips. Thanks...

Fears of collateral drought questioned
Have fears of global shortage of high-grade collateral been exaggerated?
As the world braces for several more years of painful deleveraging from the pre-2007 credit excesses, one big fear has been that a shrinking pool of top-rated or AAA assets — due varioulsy to sovereign credit rating downgrades, deteriorating mortgage quality, Basel III banking regulations, central bank reserve accumulation and central clearing of OTC derivatives — has exaggerated the ongoing credit crunch. Along with interbank mistrust, the resulting shortage of high-quality collateral available to be pledged and re-pledged between banks and asset managers, it has been argued, meant the overall amount of credit being generating in the system has been shrinking, pushing up the cost and lowering the availability of borrowing in the real economy. Quantitative easing and bond buying by the world's major central banks, some economists warned, was only exaggerating that shortage by removing the highest quality collateral from the banking system.
But economists at JPMorgan cast doubt on this. The bank claims that the universe of AAA/AA bonds is actually growing by around $1trillion per year. While central bank reserve managers absorb the lion's share of this in banking hard currency reserves, JPM reckon they still take less than half of the total created and, even then, some of that top-rated debt does re-enter the system as some central bank reserve managers engage in securities lending.
Citing a recent speech by ECB Executive Board member Benoit Coere dismissing ideas of a collateral shortage in the euro zone, JPM said ECB action in primary covered bond markets and in accepting lower-rated and foreign currency collateral had helped. It added that the average amount of eligible collateral available for Eurosystem liquidity operations was 14.3 trillion euros in the second quarter of 2012 — with 2.5 trillion euros of that put forward as collateral by euro zone banks to be used in the ECB's repo operations of 1.3 trillion. Critically, the majority of that 2.5 trillion posted at the ECB was either illiquid collateral such as bank loans or collateral associated with peripheral issuers and thus unlikely eligible for use in private repo markets anyway, they added. This process of absorbing low quality collateral in order to free up higher-quality assets for private use has been an approach of both the ECB and Bank of England.
More generally, JPM argues that strict AAA requirements across the financial system are a thing of the past. The likes of tri-party repos in Europe now accepting AA paper, for example, and there are few bond funds left with specific AAA mandates. Similar restrictrions have disappeared for most insurance and pension funds. While central banks have bought some $3.5 trillion of bonds since 2008, they have created about $5 trillion of reserves via QE and long-term repos and that net $1.5 trillion of cash is collateral of the highest quality. Neither did detailed analysis of Basel III liquidity coverage needs or OTC derivatives central clearing needs throw up onerous collateral requirements, they said.
Are these (collateral shortage) worries justified? Not in our opinion. The universe of AAA/AA bonds is actually growing in absolute terms. It has grown by $9tr (in the Barcap Multiverse index) since the end of 2008. We expect around $1tr of extra AAA/AA bond supply a year over the coming years due to elevated and persistent government deficits among major developed countries.

Sage Hill Experience: Samir has appreciated the support of peers, faculty and parents through all of his pursuits throughout high school. One incredible moment that he cherishes is a concert at his school featuring Samir's physics teacher. This teacher taught Samir for three years, and rocked the stage with his Beatles cover band. The senior class joined hands as they circled the stage and sang along to "Come Together." The whole experience summed up what it really means to be at Sage Hill School, to exist in an environment completely free of judgment, an environment where you are encouraged to be who you are, always.

Sage Hill Experience: When I was 9 years old, I received my first composition book. Somewhere in between my first journal entries about the latest crush to today's more mature daily accounts, philosophies and aspirations, I discovered my complete love for the written word. At Girls Inc. of Orange County over the past two years, I have created and taught writing and poetry classes to help the next generation of girls find their own voice in the world at a very young age. I knew that writing might be the outlet these girls, many of whom deal with dark family lives or financial barriers in the Costa Mesa area, needed to explore their emotions or just safely gab about Selena Gomez. Even if some are not as enamored with writing as I am, writing gives them communication skills that are vital for their confidence, academic success, and future careers. I have found my work at Girls Inc. to be particularly memorable because I feel I have been able to make at least a small difference in helping girls to become "Strong, Smart and Bold," as the Girls Inc. slogan goes.

Questions on shipping and delivery?
After you order, the item gets packed and prepped. Once it's out the door, you'll get a tracking number to see where your item is in transit.
How will it get to me?
- Smaller items will come like any FedEx/UPS delivery that comes to your home or business.
- Larger items will go on freight truck. They'll call you to schedule a good date/time for you to receive the items.
Why does it take so long to get to me?
- To bring the best possible service and make sure items are delivered without damages or blemishes, we have delivery partners that do nothing but deliver furniture. Does this make things a little slower? Yes. But we'd rather you have your items in perfect condition but a little slower, than damaged or blemished.
- Many small parcel items will take the standard delivery time of 3-7 business days, depending on how close you are to the shipping warehouse.

One up, one down.
That's largely been the recipe for Houston Dynamo injuries this season. Last week, Brad Davis returned to full fitness after a hamstring strain but now midfielder Andrew Driver is listed as out with Achilles tendonitis in this week's injury report, presented by Houston Methodist.
Driver sustained his injury early in last Saturday's match against the Chicago Fire and was forced to exit in the 15th minute, clearing the way for Davis' return. Head coach Dominic Kinnear spoke to the media after training on Friday, and indicated that Driver's situation is "day-to-day" at the moment. Forward Calen Carr is also listed as out for the Columbus match, as he continues to work his way back from his ACL injury.
Brian Ching, Anthony Arena and Omar Cummings remain listed as questionable. Ching and Cummings are recovering from adductor strains, while Arena is listed with an ankle sprain.
For Columbus, Eddie Gaven and Glauber suffered ACL tears earlier this season. Forward Aaron Schoenfeld will also miss tonight's match with a shoulder sprain. Defender Eric Gehrig is questionable with a right ankle sprain.

nüCamp RV manufactures the highest quality recreational vehicles and truck campers available in North America. The dedicated craftmen and women who work at the nüCamp RV fabrication facility in Sugarcreek, Ohio are committed to the principles of innovative design, high-quality fabrication, and fanatical customer support. We treat our customers as family, and they repay the favor by spreading the news about how wonderful our products are. We're not perfect, of course, so we make it right whenever we fall short--which, as you will discover, is not very often.
While our name may be new (or is it "nü"?) our company has long served in the background of the teardrop camper trailer market as a dedicated manufacturer of these fine recreational vehicle products. Pleasant Valley Teardrop Trailers adopted the name nüCamp RV in the fall of 2016. We feel that the new brand better captures and expresses the essence of our company's commitment to RVers, campers, and outdoor enthusiasts.

|Mingus NEA concerts at MacPhail Center for Music
|Wed, Nov. 24 2010
|"Three NEA grants (American Masterpieces) for chamber music in 2010-2011 support projects devoted to the works of Charles Mingus, including the four-concert series at the MacPhail Center for Music. Presented as part of its annual Jazz Thursdays program, "Meditations and Revelations" is the brainchild of bassist/MacPhail jazz coordinator Adam Linz, a longtime devotee of the "one-man avant garde," to quote John McDonough in his article about the MacPhail grant in this month's issue of Chamber Music magazine. In explaining the rationale for presenting the music of Mingus live, Linz told McDonough, "It's the ability to find spontaneity in music that's fifty years old [and to] take it somewhere it hasn't been. That's the spirit of Mingus… You have a band that rehearses without charts and adds to the performance…we want to keep that spirit that it may all fall apart…."article and photos by Andrea Canter

Pedro CostaJeanne Balibar in Pedro Costa's 'Ne change rien.'
MOVIE2A rock star to cinematic aesthetes, Pedro Costa is more punk than Dutch provocateur Lars von Trier. With seemingly no more than a digital camera, some natural light and a subject (for instance, the Lisbon slum and its loquacious denizens in his celebrated Fontainhas Trilogy) the Portuguese filmmaker achieves something fascinating, hypnotic and mysterious—and, in its fearless chiaroscuro, an austere yet rapturous beauty. For two weeks, Mr. Costa will present his most recent film, "Ne change rein," a performance documentary starring French actress and singer Jeanne Balibar, alongside some of his favorite movies. He's included some elusive choices, such as Jean Eustache's obscured documentary debut "Numero Zero," Jean-Luc Godard's comic "Keep Your Right Up," Thomas Reichman's raw and bitter "Mingus: Charlie Mingus 1968." Mr. Costa will discuss his films Friday evening, and will introduce various screenings throughout the series.

Also being honored at the JJA Awards is Sue Mingus, the widow of the late bassist-composer, who has seen to it that her husband's music is more widely performed now than it was during the jazz iconoclast's lifetime. (Even the Django Reinhardt-inspired Hot Club of Detroit is playing "Nostalgia in Times Square" on their new album, "It's About That Time.") "Mingus Monday" has become a tradition at Jazz Standard…. The 14-piece big band, which features saxophonists Scott Robinson and Wayne Escoffery, is also represented by its 10th album, "Live at Jazz Standard," and demonstrates that, alongside Ellington and Monk, there's no composer more worthy than Mingus of being a one-man franchise.

On July 24th, 1847, a number of wagons, filled with beleagured, worn & weary 'Mormon' pioneers, entered what is now, the Salt Lake Valley, which would later become Utah Territory, under the leadership of an American religious leader & colonizer, Brigham Young.
Image from the Society Portrait Collection at HSP
Some nine years previously in October of 1838, during the so-called, 'Trail of Tears,' some 11, 500 Cherokee Indians had been forced from their ancestral lands in the Southeast, only to be resettled in what is now Oklahoma. The famous late historian, Dr. Thomas D. Clark in his seminal volume, Frontier America (1959), would state: "No more pathetic mass movement of people had occurred on this continent."
In actuality, some 15,000 members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, or the 'Mormons,' had also been forced at gunpoint, to leave the State of Missouri, as a result of the 'Extermination Order,' issued by Governor Lillburn Boggs, on October 30, 1838. However, this would not occur until 200 armed men attacked the small 'Mormon' settlement of Haun's Mill, where they killed & massacred 18 persons, one being a nine-year old boy.
Then again, beginning in 1846, approximately 20,000 'Mormons,' were driven from their burning homes at Nauvoo, Illinois (a city rivaling Chicago in population) & the surrounding area, the start of what would become in reality, the largest forced migration in American history.
Philadelphia born resident, Thomas Leiper Kane, son of U.S. District Judge John K. Kane and brother to famed Arctic explorer (Elisha Kent Kane, see previous blog for details), would play a major role in 'Mormon' & Federal affairs.
'Thomas Leiper Kane' taken from the Gratz Collection, Case 5, Box 5, at HSP
Having attended previously a gathering of 'Mormons' in Philadelphia in May of 1846 {Joseph Smith, the founder and martyr of Mormonism had established a congregation in the city as early as 1839} Kane became a solid advocate for Latter-Day Saint rights and a staunch defender of their faith within governmental circles.
Kane would go on to serve as as an attorney, counselor and clerk for the District Court of the U.S., in Philadelphia in 1857, but not until he had first given a sympathetic account in behalf of the Latter-Day Saints sect, entitled, The Mormons: A Discourse delivered before the Historical Society of Pennsylvania: March 26, 1850,' published in Philadelphia that same year.
In March of 1850, there was a heated dialogue occuring within the 'halls of Congress' and elsewhere in the country, over the establishment of Utah Territory. Thomas L. Kane continually defended Brigham Young & the 'Mormon' sect, both in print & as an orator during this time of debate.
During the winter of 1857-58, when much of the American public was convinced the 'Mormons' and Brigham Young were in 'armed rebellion' against Pres. James Buchanan & the government of the United States, Kane traveled some 3,000 miles from the East to Salt Lake City, Utah, in an attempt to halt any actual bloodshed that might possibly occur between the 'Mormons' & Federal forces, which at the time were under the command of Albert Sidney Johnston (from my native Mason County, Kentucky), who would later serve in the Civil War, and die during the Battle of Shiloh in 1862.
Kane would be successful as a mediator during what would later become known as, 'Buchanan's Blunder,' since there were in reality, NO casualties in the so-called, 'Utah-Mormon War,' other than two Kentuckians, who shot & stabbed one another with bowie-knives, in Kentucky, over which individual would lead their county's company of volunteers to 'put down the Mormon rebellion that never was.' (see my article reference below)
Thomas Leiper Kane and his family, though not 'Mormon,' would continue to visit & carry out friendly relations with Brigham Young & the Mormons long after 'Buchanan's Blunder.' Kane County, Utah is named after this Philadelphia native, and the 'Thomas L. Kane Memorial Chapel,' located in the Borough of Kane, McKean County, Pennsylvania, is maintained as a visitor's center, by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints today.
Thomas Leiper Kane after the 'Mormon' conflict, would go on to serve in the American Civil War, as Colonel of the 'Bucktails,' or 42nd Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment, during which he would be wounded, captured, but later rose to the rank of Brigadier-General in the 'Army of the Potomac,' and would also fight at Gettysburg on 'Culp's Hill,' achieving the rank of 'Brevet Major-General.'
Kane was a staunch supporter of Brigham Young and a loyal friend of the Latter-Day Saints until his death in 1883. He is buried at the former Presbyterian chapel in McKean County, Pennsylvania, where the 'Mormon' church erected a statue in his honor, in 1972.

Regarding the Polyfuse, some people argue that this material is not much more than mylar turned inside out. The laminated side would actually be on the inside of the tube, and not as visible. Has anybody looked at the inside of the leading edge of an Aero?
As of today, I have not seen a single test review on the RRD 2002. Is the supertype, the kite with the very high (~6 ) AR. If so, I do not think that this is for me. If you know where to find some reviews on the 2002 kites, I would be extremely interested. Do you know when the 2002 RRD kites are supposed to come out?

PRI and its Museum of the Earth

Stephen Durham, a Cornell University graduate student currently studying under PRI staff member Dr. Gregory P. Dietl is one of the recent winners of the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship (NSF GRFP). This prestigious award provides three years of support to students pursuing a PhD or Master's degree. The NSF received over 13,000 applications for this fellowship, with fewer than 10% winning awards or honorable mentions.
"My application was in the mix with thousands of applicants from across the country and across many scientific disciplines, so I feel very lucky that NSF selected my project to receive an award. It is a great honor that will influence me personally and professionally for years to come," Stephen said.
Stephen plans on studying the effects of past climate change on the community structure and function of oyster reefs. His study of oyster fossils falls within the study of conservation paleobiology, a rapidly developing field that applies the methods and theories of paleontology to conserve biodiversity and ecosystem services. Basic research and applications that emerge from the study of this field will benefit society by evaluating environmental impacts of the recent past and providing guidelines for mitigation and restoration.
PRI staff mentor and supervise both graduate and undergraduate students from Cornell University and a variety of other institutions working on paleontological research. Dr. Gregory P. Dietl, PRI's Director of Collections, and an Adjunct Faculty member at Cornell University is Stephen's advisor. "This success speaks to the high quality and reputation of the conservation paleobiology program here at PRI and Cornell, which attracts such talented students."
About the Paleontological Research Institution:
Founded in 1932, the Paleontological Research Institution has outstanding programs in research, collections, publications, and public education. The Institution cares for a collection of nearly three million specimens (one of the 10 largest in the U.S.), and publishes Bulletins of American Paleontology, the oldest paleontological journal in the Western Hemisphere, begun in 1895. PRI is a national leader in the development of informal (i.e., outside the classroom) Earth science education resources for educators and the general public. PRI and its two public venues for education, the Museum of the Earth and the Cayuga Nature Center, are separate from, but formally affiliated with Cornell University, and interact closely with numerous University departments in research, teaching, and public outreach.
About the National Science Foundation:
NSF is the only federal agency whose mission includes support for all fields of fundamental science and engineering, except for medical sciences. NSF is tasked with keeping the United States at the leading edge of discovery in a wide range of scientific areas, from astronomy to geology to zoology. So, in addition to funding research in the traditional academic areas, the agency also supports "high risk, high pay off" ideas, novel collaborations and numerous projects that may seem like science fiction today, but which the public will take for granted tomorrow. And in every case, they ensure that research is fully integrated with education so that today's revolutionary work will also be training tomorrow's top scientists and engineers.

However, reports about an impending departure by linebackers coach Darrell Patterson are untrue. Patterson has been in the mix for jobs at Kansas and Nevada, but I'm being told "he's not going anywhere."

Nested atop of the Kyoto Grand Hotel located in down town LA, Jadar Entertainment returned on June 7th, with their weekly Thursday Night Vibe event - a rich and relaxing evening of live soul, jazz and r'n'b. The talented Chante Moore and Mark Allen Felton wooed the crowd to their dancing feet throughout the evening, with DJ Shell jamming out some old school classics in between. Japanese landscaped gardens completed the setting with a gently babbling brook, waterfall and pond - a tranquil two tier rooftop oasis. With the sun setting and the light shimmering from the mirrored facades of the surrounding buildings, mountains in the background, a cool breeze, black bow tied waiters, a nicely stocked selection of alcoholic beverages and basic snack menu – it was a simply wonderful and complementary environment for such sweet sounds. Thursday Night Vibe attracts an older, more sophisticated crowd (average ages between 40-60) keen on their music, dancing, and taking in a smooth ambiance. It was a chilled and friendly vibe – couples, family groups and girlfriends out on the town.
The live entertainment kicked off with sensual saxophone sounds of Mark Allen Felton.
Originally from Chicago, Illinois, Mark's musical journey began when he was aged 11. His ability with the saxophone won him many awards and since starting out he's shared the stage with an impressive range of great artists, and written hundreds of original songs and musical compositions. His performance at the Kyoto was both seductive and uplifting. He played with passion and his notes soared into the evening air, mesmerising the adoring audience. Mark and his saxophone mingled amongst the crowd at one point, which was a definite hit, particularly with the ladies.
As the night sky started to twinkle and DJ Shell played in the interval, you could sense the crowd warming up; a soundscape of beats, laughter, dancing and fun.
R'n'b and jazz singer Chante Moore took to the stage looking absolutely gorgeous – her smile and style lighting up the place.
Born in San Francisco, California, Chante's love of singing was sparked growing up in the church. It was in high school that she decided to take her talents more seriously and this began her long and highly successful career. With a number of hit records, movie sound track credits, a Soul Train Music Awards win and separate nomination alongside the late Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey and a career filled with achievement, Chante is a woman at the top of her game, a perfect songstress and entertainer. She definitely turned up the heat with her stunning vocal range and repertoire.
Jadar Entertainment has been producing events and working with major artists both in LA and internationally since 2008. Their very first event was held at The Kyoto Grand Hotel (soon to become The Hilton Double Tree) where Thursday Night Vibe will continue for the next two Thursdays of this month – June 14th and 21st. If you're into funk, soul, r'n'b and jazz – get your money maker down town and see where the party is at! Tickets from $15. Doors open 6pm.

Treasury announces final rules for electronic delivery expected to reduce theft and save $1 billion over 10 years.
A long-planned requirement that Social Security recipients receive their checks through direct deposit will take effect May 1, 2011, three months later than originally proposed, the Treasury Department's Financial Management Service announced Tuesday.
"This important change will provide significant savings to American taxpayers who will no longer incur the annual $120 million price tag associated with paper checks and will save Social Security $1 billion over the next 10 years," said Treasury Fiscal Assistant Secretary Richard L. Gregg. The switch also is aimed at reducing incidents of loss or theft, claims that require the Social Security Administration to re-cut 600,000 checks in an average year.
Currently, eight out of 10 recipients among the 58 million retirees, disabled Americans and surviving family members already receive their monthly benefits electronically, Treasury reports. But after advocacy groups for the elderly worked with officials in finalizing the rules, recipients who were born before May 1, 1921 -- an estimated 275,000 Americans -- will be allowed to continue to receiving paper checks. Others who live far from banks where they could make direct deposit arrangements also can petition for an exception.
Since passage of the 1996 Debt Collection Improvement Act, the government has been working toward electronic delivery of all government checks except refunds from the Internal Revenue Service, including Supplemental Security Income and benefits from the Veterans Affairs Department, Railroad Retirement Board, and Office of Personnel Management.
Social Security recipients who don't have a bank or credit union account or who prefer using a credit card account have the option of using the Direct Express Debit MasterCard card account. More than 1.5 million beneficiaries have signed up for Direct Express since 2008.
Current Social Security recipients who receive paper checks must make arrangements for electronic deposit by March 1, 2013, either online or by phoning 1-800-333-1795. Americans who become eligible for benefits after May 1, 2011, will be required to use direct deposit.
To promote awareness and ease the transition, Treasury upgraded a special website at www.GoDirect.org, and will follow up with public service announcements and a financial literacy campaign in cooperation with hundreds of national, regional and local organizations.
Advocacy groups for the elderly generally were pleased with the final arrangements. "The Social Security Administration has always been aware of the special needs of the populations they serve," Barbara Kennelly, president and chief executive officer of the National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare, told Government Executive.
"Including ample time for seniors to adjust to a paperless benefits system has clearly been their priority, which we applaud. Based on surveys of our own members, we know that seniors are more comfortable with current banking technology so we don't see this as a roadblock to their daily banking or purchasing needs."
AARP was more cautious in its support. "While initiatives such as this can increase Social Security's efficiency, reduce fraud and abuse, and save money … we need to balance those goals with protecting millions of older Americans who stand to see significant changes, or may face new challenges," said Cristina Martin-Firvida, director of economic security in government relations at AARP.
"The new regulations clearly favor the move to paperless benefits for more people in Social Security, but they also provide some important protections for individuals who will still need to receive paper checks, which is why we're committed to working with the administration to explore all opportunities to educate Americans about their safe and secure choices for receiving the benefits that they earned," Martin-Firvida said.

The FRA delivered an opinion on 31 May on the proposed EU law on the property consequences of registered international partnerships, following a request from European Parliament on 25 April 2012.
Opinion on the Proposal for a regulation on jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions regarding the property consequences of registered partnershipsen (200.26 KB)
The proposed regulation (COM(2011) 127 final) does not offer civil partners the same choice as married couples over which national law applies. The FRA's opinion concludes that the proposed law does not provide convincing reasons for denying registered partners a comparable choice as would be offered to married couples. This runs a serious risk of violating the principle of equal treatment under EU law.

Retired QB Brett Favre takes some blame for messy split with Green Bay Packers
BUFFALO, N.Y. – Retired quarterback Brett Favre is taking some of the blame for his ugly departure from the Green Bay Packers.
Favre told WGR 550-AM in Buffalo on Thursday that he was "at fault" in the breakup, though he says he feels like "both sides had a part in it."
Favre also says he has patched up things with Aaron Rodgers. After Rodgers arrived at Green Bay, Favre flirted every offseason with retirement but always came back. In 2008, Favre retired, changed his mind and asked for his job back, but Favre was traded to the New York Jets during training camp.
Favre retired from the Jets in 2009 before deciding on a return with Minnesota Vikings. The three-time MVP retired from the NFL in 2010 after playing for 20 seasons.

A forum for sharing successful children's programming. We can accomplish more together than we can alone. Please share your programming ideas here.
Summer Reading Program
If you are utilizing the "Get Creative" or "Express Yourself" @ your library themes, here are several ideas for programs and activities that relate to this year's theme.
Summer Reading Program 2009
Preschool Storytimes
1. Wilma Flanagan of the Spokane County Library District created a website with links to all of her themed storytimes. Each themed storytime link contains suggested books, fingerplays, flannelboards, poetry and crafts. The site does not appear to be active at this time, but it remains a wonderful resource. Check it out! [1]
2. Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne, Indiana has started a Youth Services Wiki and on it is a page for Pre-school storytimes and ideas. At the bottom of each storytime they have listed suggestions on how to incorporate the 6 Pre-Reading Skills from Every Child Ready to Read. Also of interest under Program Extras you will see Letter and Number Handouts. There you will find 1 sheet of activities and ideas for each letter of the alphabet and numbers 1 -10. They make great handouts for storytimes. NMagi 08:45, 7 May 2009 (PDT)
