Despite waking up at 06:15 this morning, the mighty snow did not want me to leave my house which meant I couldn't get into work, and I don't know if that's a good or bad thing?!
And so I thought I would make use of my day with some VERY overdue posting, and so here it is. Not a very warm outfit, but an outfit nonetheless.
I got this beautiful over sized glitter bow from Crown & Glory after salivating after those infamous rose head bands for so long. I will do a little review of them in another post (and for those who can't wait, they were more beautiful than I expected!).
You can choose from a fantabulous array of 30 colours and I think I put around 10 colours in my shopping basket, until I came to my senses, and settled on two head bands and one glitter bow. I have always looked for accessories like these, they and they really are amazing, so definitely take a look. You can bend the corners around until you get your desired shape, which is great because it means they don't just flop on your head, and the glitter hasn't shedded at all since I have been wearing mine.
I don't know what it is about the range but it's so Alice in Wonderland - ish, if that makes sense at all, and it's so me!

About the Kabbalah Red String
Long ago, the ancient Kabbalah scholars revealed a powerful technology of protection. Its purpose is twofold: to protect us from the envious looks of others, and to help us eliminate feelings of jealousy and resentment in ourselves. The technology is the Red String: a strand of Red wool worn around the left wrist.
The teachings of Kabbalah do not include prohibitions or commandments. Instead, the kabbalah speak of positive and negative energies. The negative energies of jealousy and envy emanate through the eyes—which gave rise to the very vivid and very ancient term, the Evil Eye.
The Evil Eye is part of the wisdom history of all humanity. It was spoken of by Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. It was written of in the Bible. It has been accorded fear and respect by kings, queens, and conquerors throughout the ages. The ancient Greek seafarers painted eyes on the prows of their ships as protection against this power. The Romans called it "Oculus Malus". To the Scots it was "Droch Shuil". Kabbalah scholars refer to it as "Ayin Harah". According to the Kabbalah, this form of negative energy can affect our lives and well-being. It can hold us back from achieving our destinies and it can also cause us to lose what we have already achieved.
How the Kabbalah Red String Works
Worn around the left wrist, the Kabbalah Red String works in the same way as the vaccines of modern medicine. When we receive a vaccination against a disease, a weakened strain of the illness is integrated into the vaccine. Spiritual immunizations are based on a similar principle. Kabbalah teaches that colors have specific frequencies and energies. Red, for example, is the color of danger. By binding a Red String to ourselves in a very specific manner, we shield ourselves against the dangerous negativity that might be directed our way, a spiritual vaccine against the destructive forces of the Evil Eye.
The color Red is one part of the technology. The rest begins in Israel, where a length of Red String is wound around the tomb of Rachel, the Matriarch of the Bible. Rachel is considered by Kabbalah scholars to be the mother of the world, and her greatest desire is to defend all of her children from evil. Throughout her life, Rachel acted as the protector of all humankind. According to Kabbalah, the burial sites of the righteous are a portal to the energy they created in their lifetimes. The Red String is brought to Rachel's tomb where it is infused with her force of protection, for no power is stronger than a mother's natural protective love. Each and every Red String from the Kabbalah Center must undergo this process in order to be considered an authentic form of protection against the Evil Eye.
Wearing the Kabbalah Red StringThe Red String is individually sized and worn around the left wrist. The left side of the body has been identified by Kabbalah scholars as the area where energy enters. The left arm and hand pertain to the concept of receiving; the right arm and hand embody the power of imparting. Negative forces, therefore, enter the body through the left side. By wearing the Red String on the left wrist, negative energies are intercepted at the precise point of entry. The string is tied in a carefully prescribed sequence of seven knots, each of which symbolizes a separate spiritual dimension that infuses our reality.
Have someone you love and trust tie the Red String to your left wrist. First, have them tie the string closely around your wrist with a simple knot. Repeat by knotting the string six more times for a total of seven knots. Now make a promise to yourself that you will refrain from negative thoughts or talk about others. This harmful behavior will interfere with your effort to gain personal fulfillment and protection. Then have the person finish by saying the Ben Porat Prayer (read from right to left) which prevents others from giving us the evil eye.

It was with sadness that we learned last week that the "EAR"resistable animal rescue organization in Grayson County was about to close because of a lack of funding.
In its brief life, the non-profit group provided a humane alternative to the animal shelter, saving the lives of dozens of animals that were neglected, abused, abandoned or from families that no longer had the means to care for them.
The operation soon realized that it, too, was being abandoned by donors who, in this dog of an economy, were no longer able to help.

The City of Charlotte has been sued for violating open meetings laws in connection with the negotiations that culminated in a deal to renovate Bank of America Stadium.
And the plaintiffs in that litigation now have a potential smoking gun.
Via WFAE-FM radio, Charlotte City Council had admitted that Panthers owner Jerry Richardson attended council sessions that were closed to the public.
Specifically, Richardson attended two of the four closed sessions (commonly known as "executive sessions") during which the use of taxpayer money to upgrade the stadium Richardson owns was discussed.
"I don't know if it was appropriate or not, but it was important to him," Councilman Andy Dulin said, indicating that he has yet to figure out the primary purpose of, you know, legal services. "It must have been of importance because he did show up – you know that put an exclamation point on the seriousness of the negotiations that some might not have done. I appreciated him being there."
Councilman Michael Barnes comes much closer to admitting that City Council screwed the proverbial pooch on this one.
"I thought Jerry Richardson had a very good personal story to tell about what he was trying to do with the team and where he was trying to place the team long-term, so I wanted that to be much more public than it was, and I still think that we should have made more of it public," Barnes said. "I think it hurt the transparency piece from a public perspective and public confidence, but I don't think it hurt the negotiation."
Open meetings laws aren't about negotiations, they're about transparency in government. Richardson found a way to force his way behind the curtain, at a time when the public otherwise was kept out.
It's hard to fault Richardson for taking advantage of the situation. Success in life often flows from showing up in places where you aren't supposed to be, and essentially daring someone else to politely tell you to get the hell out.
No one told Richardson to get the hell out, and now City Council will inevitably have to deal with the likelihood that their defense in the pending lawsuit won't be successful.

Canvassing a Town for Historical Resources
Hopefully, before you go on your trip you will have created a research plan so that you know precisely what is available at the library or town hall. Haven't done this yet? Then head back to your computer and check out the local library catalog online or the Family History Library catalog online.
When you schedule your trip, add an extra day ahead of time to canvass the town. Canvassing the town will reveal the physical elements of history that are still present and re-directs you to look for more records.
During the process of canvassing the town you will visit all the town graveyards, make note of the historical homes that are still standing, root out physical elements of the past such as old bridges, mills, historic town animal pens, veterans monuments, etc.
What's the point of all this? Canvassing the town for physical features will give you a sense of what the town looked like when your ancestor lived there and help you familiarize yourself with the layout of the town.
Not only do cemeteries provide genealogical information they are also a physical connection to the past. If you have a number of family members in the local cemeteries, then your ancestor(s) may have been there a number of times to send off other family members and friends. They may have stood in front of the very stones that you are standing in front of today.
While at the cemetery make note of the sections and the general age of the gravestones. Take a look at the landscape of the cemetery. Try to imagine what it looked like when your ancestors were alive.
Historic Houses
I love to visit historic towns and often read the plaques on the historic houses to see when they were built and who built them. Any homes built before your ancestor's death would have been a house that your ancestor actually viewed during their daily life. Not all homes will still be standing from that time, but the ones that are provide a physical connection to your ancestor. You will likely find most old homes in the center of town. Perhaps even your ancestors home is still standing. You can mentally erase the more modern homes to get a feel for what the town used to look like. If you write a biography you can include photos of local historic houses to show how your ancestor viewed the town.
Do you know what religion your ancestor was? See if the church they attended is still standing. Take photos of the outside and inside if you can. Sit the pews where your ancestor sat for so many Sundays. The church I attend was built in 1838. I often think about what it might have been like for folks attending church back then.
Stone walls, pounds and other physical features
New England, more than any other part of the country, is full of what we now consider quaint stone walls. Many of them were built during the late 18th and 19th century. Observe any stone walls you find and photograph some if they are around historic farms or houses.
Another stone feature to be on the look out in New England is the town pound. This is where the wandering animals were placed until their owners paid a fee and retrieved them. Animals on the loose were serious business to early New Englanders who needed to make sure their crops didn't get eaten by stray animals. Many towns still have town pounds preserved. If your ancestor was a farmer perhaps his animals spent a few hours here and there in the pound.
Also be on the lookout for other old-time physical features such bridges, mills or perhaps mile markers along the old post roads set up by Benjamin Franklin.
Veterans Monuments
Most towns have monuments to their veterans. Some of them may be historical and others more modern. Either way, they will likely list the veterans from the town who participated in the war. Stop and enjoy seeing your ancestor's name included on the monument. And make note of those who served with him. Perhaps they could provide further clues to researching your ancestor's life.
Archival Records
Now, I know you've already done your research plan. Save that for tomorrow. Stop by town hall, the historical society, the library and any local museums you find and assess their collections. Resist the urge to open a book and start researching. Make note of the collections of resources they have. Jot down any you didn't know about that might provide information about your ancestors. Later in the evening you can add them to your research plan if they look like good sources.
Meet the Locals
If you go to the local historical society, call them in advance and try to have someone meet you there. No one knows the town history better than the folks at the historical society. If they don't have the answers you are looking for about the town or your ancestors, they will know exactly who to send you to for the answers. The only problem might be that there are too many people you'll need to talk to and not enough time reserved on your trip to do it. That's what happened to me when I went to New York. I could have spent a whole day talking to the old folks who knew about my family.
Wrapping it up
At the end of your day write out a summary of all the resources that you discovered. In particular, make note of specifics regarding the photographs you took. The next day when you head out to do archival records research you will have a much better sense about the town. Then when you find relevant information in the record books it will mean much more to you. You will find you also notice items that would have otherwise not caught your attention.
Canvassing a town is fun. It's physical, visual and involves all your senses. It will give you a much more comprehensive impression about the place where your ancestors lived. Remember, the next time you go on a research trip to the home of your ancestor, schedule an extra day to canvass the town.

Great post Marian! Will be printing out for further reference.ReplyDelete
Nice post, with things I've never thought about. For instance, looking at Veterans Memorials, and old houses in the center of town. It's nice to have all the research ideas in one blog. Also, maybe look at old newspapers for the town, from home, prior to the trip.ReplyDelete
Barbara - good point about the newspapers. Some towns, like mine, had very rare, short-lived local newspapers. They were printed weekly. My local library has copies of these as does perhaps a larger library nearby. But there is likely no reference to these rare newspapers in indexes or major collections. So checking for newspapers is another great idea.ReplyDelete
Marian, I loved this article and recommended it to my blog readers.ReplyDelete
Thanks Bill! I'm glad you liked it.ReplyDelete
Great post, Marian! I, too, will print it out for future reference, and it brings to mind some things that I've written in the past that I should probably re-visit as well.ReplyDelete
I shared it on Facebook with Friends, too!
Wonderful post! I'm daydreaming about a research tour and you've given me some marvelous ideas. Now to find the time...ReplyDelete
Great post. I wish I could have read it prior to my recent trip. I'm going to print this post out and add it to my research binder so I have it for future trips.ReplyDelete
This is a great post, Marian. Our society, Whittier Area Genealogical Society (WAGS) last two monthly speakers' topics were related to your post. In September we had Maureen Neeley at http://www.housestories.net speak on "Discovering Your House's History" which included the history of the neighborhood. In October we had a pair of speakers, David Armstrong and Anne Miller, speak on "Mapping Your Ancestor's Home:Using Google Earth" at http:www.AJMresearch.com. Both programs complimented each other and would have made a great addition to your fine post.ReplyDelete
Gosh, I missed this post when it first came out. I'm so glad I read it before any research trips. Thanks for sharing your ideas, some that wouldn't have occurred to me. Great ideas.ReplyDelete

" 'Yellow journalism' a phrase coined in the late 19th century because of its smear appeal, still lives on as a derogatory term for some types of publications. For years I have been cutting out photographs from the daily press and special magazines, many of Italian origin which regularly publish pictures taken by the paparazzi of events and personalities, and keeping them in my drawer. They inspired me. Later I confessed my love to what is known in French as 'les faits divers' to Roger Therond, legendary editor in chief of 'Paris Match' who commissioned me on a number of occasions to cover a faits divers."

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Thirty-one Penn State student-athletes are scheduled to graduate during commencement exercises Saturday, Dec. 22 on the University Park campus.
Student-athletes representing 13 Penn State squads are on the approved to graduate list, including 10 members of the football team, four members of the women's swimming and diving squad and three members of the women's soccer and women's track and field teams.
Erin McNulty and Christine Nairn (women's soccer), Ayla Halus (field hockey), Kara Millhouse (women's track and field) and Brian Forgue (men's soccer) are among the student-athletes scheduled to graduate this weekend.
First-team All-Big Ten center Matt Stankiewitch is among the 10 football student-athletes scheduled to receive their diplomas on Saturday. Defensive end Pete Massaro, a two-time first-team CoSIDA Academic All-American, will receive his second undergraduate degree, in economics. Three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree Mike Farrell, running back Derek Day, kick snapper Michael Fuhrman, tight end Brian Irvin, quarterback Shane McGregor, linebacker Jamie Van Fleet and cornerback Mike Wallace also are approved to graduate.
Penn State student-athletes continue to graduate well above their peers nationwide, earning consistently outstanding academic performances.
- A record total of 100 Penn State student-athletes from seven fall sports earned 2012 Academic All-Big Ten accolades, the highest total in the conference;
- The NCAA's annual study of institutions nationwide revealed in October, 2011 that Penn State student-athletes at the University Park campus earned a Graduation Success Rate (GSR) of 88 percent compared to a 80 percent average for all Division I institutions for students entering from 2002-03 through 2005-06;
- The NCAA data showed the four-year federal graduation rate average for Penn State student-athletes was 78 percent, significantly higher than the national average of 64 percent, and second to Northwestern (88) among Big Ten Conference institutions.
- The NCAA data also revealed that student-athletes from five Penn State squads earned a Graduation Success Rate of 100 percent and 10 additional teams were at 90 percent or higher for a total of 15.

Corporate Sponsorship
Sponsorship has long been a cornerstone of the Credit Suisse corporate strategy. As in every area of our business, the emphasis here is on quality, sustainability, and partnership.
Passion and Pursuit of Excellence
Credit Suisse cooperates on sponsorships with select institutions. Some, such as the National Gallery in London and the Bolshoi Theatre, are household names all over the world. Others are primarily of regional and national importance. These include the Swiss Football Association with all of its national teams, the Lucerne Festival, and the Kunstmuseum Bern. As brand ambassador for the bank, Roger Federer enjoys special status. However, regardless of how well known they may be, or the field in which they work, all our sponsorship partners have one thing in common: their passion for what they do, and their pursuit of excellence – an ethos that we share at Credit Suisse.
Focusing on Long-Term Partnerships
Sponsorship has been a firm feature of our corporate and communications strategy for more than 40 years, with culture and sports as the focus of our activities. In the cultural sphere, the main thrust of our sponsorship is supporting individuals, organizations, and institutions from classical music and the fine arts, from around the globe. In sports sponsorship, which is more nationally oriented, the key areas are football, golf, and equestrianism. Roger Federer, who has been a global ambassador for Credit Suisse since 2009, occupies a very special position.
Nurturing Young Talent
We recognize that in order to make it to the top in sports and culture talent needs to be nurtured and supported from a very early age. As such, developing young talent is an integral part of the Credit Suisse sponsorship strategy. In football, for example, half the sponsorship funding for the Swiss Football Association is invested in coaching gifted young players. This is clearly paying off: The Swiss squad won the FIFA U-17 World Cup in 2010, and the U-21s were runners-up in the 2011 European Championship, proving that Switzerland's young footballers definitely have what it takes.

Crews are set to begin moving utilities Monday to prepare for construction of the new overpass on U.S. Highway 98.
HURLBURT FIELD � Crews are set to begin moving utilities Monday to prepare for construction of the new overpass on U.S. Highway 98.
In December, the state Department of Transportation awarded a $13.9 million contract for the project intended to relieve traffic congestion on U.S. 98 and provide better access to Hurlburt�s Field�s main gate.
Two two-lane bridges will be built on U.S. 98 over Cody Avenue. Construction should begin this summer.
Col. Jim Slife, commander of the 1st Special Operations Wing, said congestion at the intersection has been frustrating for Hurlburt and surrounding communities for years.
�I see this as a tremendous opportunity for both those of us who commute to Hurlburt Field and those who drive past the installation,� he said in an email.
The overpass should extend to about 3,750 feet west of the intersection and 2,500 feet to the east, according to the DOT.
In addition to the overpass, the work will include improvements to utilities, drainage, traffic signals, traffic management systems, lighting, signs and pavement markings.
Temporary lane closures will occur during utilities relocation, said Tanya Branton, a spokeswoman for the DOT. Officials will provide advance notice.
That job should be finished by the time construction begins this summer, she said.
The contract for design and construction of the overpass was awarded to Superior Construction Co. and Michael Baker Corp.
It came in under budget. Last spring, DOT officials said they had set aside $21.2 million for the job.
The $7.3 million in savings was passed on to other projects in the DOT�s Northwest Florida district, Branton said.
Officials said traffic likely will get a little worse before it gets better, but they are working to provide alternatives during construction.
Dan Wilcoxen, Hurlburt�s chief of military construction, said they are working closely with DOT and Okaloosa County to coordinate potential secondary gate access points.
The options being considered would be implemented about July.
The entire project is expected to be complete in the winter of 2014, Branton said.

Vincristine Toxicity
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My son (6 yrs old) has been diagnosed with ALL (Acute Lymphblastic Leukaemia) just 2 months back (6th May 2004). The doctors here are following the CCCG 1991 protocol. At the end of the induction phase, he was paralyzed from hip below. The doctors stopped chemotherapy till such he improved. He is able to walk on his own now, but still has some weakness in his knees. His pediatric oncologist thinks the temporary paralysis was either due to a) Vincristine (VCR) toxicity, b) Intrathecal (IT) methotrexate (MTX) toxicity.
They have restarted the chemotherapy with half dose of VCR (IV push). They also said that they will stop the IT MTX for a while, but put him on IT ARA C (Cytarabine) and then slowly reintroduce IT MTX. If he still does not tolerate, then the doctors have recommended prophylactic cranial RT. But the Radiologists at his treating hospital are not in favor to give him cranial radiation since my son has had the above mentioned toxicity to VCR or IT MTX. As a concerned parent, I do not know where my son stands in the treatment phase.
- Will they be able to continue with the IT MTX
- Is prophylactic cranial RT an alternative for IT MTX to prevent the CNS getting the disease?
- Is cranial radiation safe?
Anna Meadows, MD, Pediatric Oncologist at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Director of the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania's Survivorship Research Program, responds:
Your son is getting treatment with the best protocol we now know. However, there are some children who have exaggerated responses to some of the drugs. We have seen children with your son's toxicity, and mostly it was due to VCR, not MTX. Although it is difficult to give advice from a distance, when children experience this toxicity at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) we would recommend continuing with Ara C for now until the child is no longer getting so much VCR. We would typically then introduce MTX IT when in the maintenance phase of treatment. We would not recommend cranial radiation at this time, as many children still have a very good chance of not relapsing. We would reserve radiation for later if needed when children are older and tolerate it better. These are general guidelines we follow at CHOP, but specific recommendations can only be made by your treating physician.

3DMark Vantage is the new industry standard PC gaming performance benchmark from Futuremark, newly designed for Windows Vista and DirectX10. It includes two new graphics tests, two new CPU tests, several new feature tests, and support for the latest hardware.
3DMark Vantage is based on a completely new rendering engine, developed specifically to take full advantage of DirectX10, the new graphics API from Microsoft.
We again see very little difference between the two chipsets, but when we move to X and start working the graphics cards a bit more, the P45 takes about a 10% drop in performance.

Seeing how I pretty much live on the road, hand washing the cars isn't always the most feasible option for me. Do you guys and gals have a favorite car wash facility in the West Houston and Katy area that you'd recommend?
Or.....a place you will never take your vehicle to ever again?

N Latex BTP Assay
Rapid Detection of CSF leakage and Easier Estimation of RRF
Fast and Accurate Detection of CSF Leakage
The new N Latex BTP Assay is the first fully-automated method to provide accurate, rapid, and cost-effective determination of CSF leakage with a simple, nephelometric lab test. Testing can be performed on minimal sample volumes of human serum, heparinized and EDTA-plasma, CSF, and nasal or ear secretions containing CSF. Results are comparable to the β2-transferrin immunofixation electrophoresis method, but faster, easier, and less expensive.
- High specificity of 100% and sensitivity of 99% for accurate results.1
- Performance is not subject to CDT interference.
- 12 minutes to result—time to result from sample collection to final result possible in 1 hour—less than half the time needed B2Trf, enabling faster surgical intervention.1,2
- Low incidence of false-positive results helps reduce costly imaging testing and possible loss of life due to misdiagnosis.
Simple and Precise Monitoring of RRF
Beta-trace protein (BTP) measurement with the N Latex BTP assay offers simpler sample retrieval and increased accuracy of RRF determination when compared to other methods. It is the first assay to accurately, reliably and simply estimate RRF status with one serum sample.
- Only a single serum sample is needed for determination of BTP
- Allows estimation of renal contribution to clearance - without inaccurate and cumbersome urine collection
- Supports decisions regarding dialysis modality selection
- Provides information clinicians need to adjust dialysis regimen as well as to anticipate and manage complications.

The following post was made by a Bahraini activists online.
I have only minute to speak here as I am at an internet cafe I must use now to post, but I have a request of the good bloggers here – one which I ask upon my hands and knees begging you with all hope and humility.
Please do not forget about us in Bahrain.
I beg of you to not abandon your heart passion, but please do not forget about us here.
Our own freedom struggle is bad now, it has taken many turns for the worse and getting more worse. The secret police are out in full force and anyone who has ever uttered any support of the freedom movement is now at risk.
Please support us, we must have people like you to help us. We must have people like you to ask your the governments to help us please have the basic dignity which we give our blood for.
We are going to the streets again, with nothing but our lives and bodies and we know it will be bad for us but we do not care. We are united we are one, we are Bahrain!
It is brother and sister, sunni and shi'ite – do not believe the lies it is an Iranian plot or must be done for the oil or stability. We do not have the internet, it is too blocked. We do not have the media, it is too controlled. We only have YOU!
Help us, I beg you with all my heart and soul.
I will not give any details in order to prevent any useful information leaking out which may help the person be identified, but for anyone who has ever valued freedom, it is our duty to repeat this message as far and as widely as possible. The Bahraini's need our support and the Anarchists should be ready to give that support to a people in revolt.

Tips for correct Washing and Drying of laundry
Pre-soaking the clothes
The best technique employed in removing stains and making certain that clothes come out fresh and clean is to pre-soak the clothes. It is simple and requires very little time and almost no effort.
Add the proper amount of detergent to water, ensuring that the detergent is thoroughly blended in the water. Then add the clothes to be washed. Soak them for between twenty to thirty minutes before beginning the regular wash cycle in the washing machine.
Separate the clothes by colour
As a general rule wash black/brown clothes, white clothes and coloured clothes separately to avoid colours from running into other clothes and spoiling them.
Avoid Colour Fading
Check whether a garment will fade or not by placing a piece of white cloth underneath it while it's still damp and passing a hot iron over it. If the colour comes through, you will need to hand-wash it separately in lukewarm soapy water. New garments should always be washed separately the first time (using washing powder) to get rid of surplus colouring.
Avoid leaving wet washing in a pile as the colours could run and stain other garments.
Do not overload the washing machine
Overloading the washing machine has several drawbacks:
- The clothes will not become fully clean.
- There is a greater likelihood of detergent residue remaining in the clothes.
- There is a greater risk of damage to the washing machine due to over loading.
Manage the loading cycle in the machine
One of the best ways to ensure that clothing enjoys a long life is to pay attention to the type of cycle that best serves your garments.
By failing to pay attention to what type of wash cycle is best for a particular type of clothing, you will be aging your garments before their time.
Avoiding wrinkles in washing
There are three steps that you need to keep in mind when it comes to avoiding wrinkles in your wash. Dealing with wrinkled clothing can be the most frustrating and time consuming:
- Remove the clothes from the washer immediately after the spin cycle ends and put them into a dryer. This will greatly reduce the amount of wrinkling.
- Ensure the correct temperature setting on your dryer. Do not ratchet the dryer temperature up too high. High temperatures tend to increase the presence of wrinkles in some clothing.
- Remove the clothes from the dryer as soon as the machine completes its cycle and hang them on a clothes hanger immediately in order to avoid undue wrinkling of your garments.
Fabric Care Tips for different types of Garments
Washing: Silk is very delicate and for best results should generally be hand-washed in lukewarm soapy water without soaking it, except in cases where the laundry label says it can be washed in a machine (use delicate wash option at a temperature setting of 30 to 32°C in that case).
For better results add a few drops of vinegar or sugar to cold water to rinse.
Drying: Avoid twisting or rough-drying the fabric. Spread it flat on a towel or sponge to dry. Shirts and blouses can be dried on a hanger.
Ironing: Iron while the cloth is still damp in order to prevent damage to the fabric.
Other Tips:
- Silk clothes should generally be dried indoors and never be dried under sunlight as it can result in yellowing of the clothes. To remove the yellowing, soak the garment in three parts ordinary water to one part oxygenated water with a drop of ammonia, then rinse in ordinary water.
- Avoid sprinkling water on the silk clothes while ironing or it will get water marks. It is best to iron the cloth while still slightly damp from the washing, but ensure that water is not dripping from the clothes.
Washing: Any stains on the linen clothes should be pre-treated before washing the clothes. Linen clothes can be washed in a machine as long as they are washed at a temperature of less than 50°C to preserve the colour and the natural fabric. For better results it is advised to use a non-chlorine washing powder/liquid for linen clothes, and to use a fabric whitening product to stop it from turning yellow.
Drying: In order to prevent linen clothes from shrinking they should not be dried in the sunlight or in a machine. It is best to dry linen clothes by hanging indoors them on a clothes hanger after removing the excess water by spreading it flat on a towel or sponge to dry.
Wool is very delicate and shouldn't be boiled or washed with chlorine-based products. Hand-washing is best, but you can machine-wash woollen garments. Before washing woollen garments always check the laundry label and set your machine to a short non-spin program.
Hand-washing: Woollen garments should be washed at a maximum temperature of 30° C using special wool washing products and without soaking them. Scrub the woollen garments gently and rinse them in lukewarm water, gently squeezing the water out, then rinse in cold water for best results.
Drying: Dry using a towel (without twisting) and then dry by placing the woollen clothes flat on a fresh towel.
Kashmere garments should generally be washed after three outings. Kashmere is very delicate and gets damaged easily if washed regularly.
Machine washing: Put the Kashmere garments in a special underwear bag or in a pillowcase in your machine and use special wool washing products for best results. Select a cold wool program on the machine and set the spin function at under 600 rpm.
Hand washing: For best results use wool washing product or diluted shampoo. Do not leave Kashmere to soak for too long in order to prevent the clothes from smelling; it should be washed and rinsed fast in cold water until all the residual detergent is removed.
Drying: Kashmere clothes should generally be dried without twisting. Roll the Kashmere garments in a towel and then dry it flat on a dry towel. Avoid drying Kashmere clothes in a machine.
Ironing: If you need to iron Kashmere, do not use a very hot iron. Iron the Kashmere garments carefully on the underside to prevent damage to the garments.
Machine-washing: Viscose clothing should be washed inside out at a maximum temperature of 40°C on a delicate program with the machine two-thirds full of water.
Drying: Avoid twisting or rough-drying the fabric. Dry the clothes on a hanger and iron them while still slightly damp.
Tips for other garments:
- Inner Garments last longer if they are hand washed, but they can be machine-washed as well. Put them into a special bag or a silk or satin pillowcase. Use washing powder/liquid and wash the garments by setting the machine on a delicate wash program.
- Sleeping bags, quilts and pillows: These items should generally be washed by putting a new tennis ball into the machine to prevent clumping and catch any build- up of feather in the fabric. While washing these fabrics a gentle washing powder/liquid should be used.
Smart Ironing
Time saving tips
- Reduce your ironing time by putting a piece of aluminum foil under the surface you are ironing on. The foil will reflect heat so the ironing is being done from both sides at once.
- Iron garments needing the lowest temperature first and then those requiring the highest in order to ensure proper ironing and enhance the life of iron.
- To avoid creases, while ironing sleeves, place a rolled up towel inside the sleeve before ironing.
- To prevent collars, cuffs, and hems from puffing, iron them on the inside first.
- Iron double layered fabric such as trousers and denims on the inside first, then on the outside.
- While ironing Acrylic knits, Iron each section dry, and let it cool completely before moving on to the next part of the fabric.
- While ironing denims steam the fabric thoroughly. While it is still damp, quickly smooth it along the ribs with your palm and then begin ironing the denim.
- While ironing ties, insert a piece of cardboard cut to fit its inside. Cover the tie with a thin muslin cloth, and press lightly with a steam iron.
How to Effectively Iron Shirts
- Iron the collar of the shirt first. Stretch the back of the collar flat across the ironing surface. Iron the back of the collar several times until you are sure it is correctly ironed, then iron the front of the collar.
- Iron the sleeves of the shirt next. The back of the sleeves needs to be ironed first and then the front. Stretch the larger part of the sleeves across the ironing surface. Iron the back of the sleeves first then move toward the front of the sleeves front until the circumference of the sleeve has been ironed. Stretch the lower back of the sleeve across the surface. Iron toward the cuffs, flip the shirt over and do the front, making sure to use short strokes.
- For the rest of the shirt, lay it as flat as possible on the ironing surface. Work from one side to the other slowly smoothing out the wrinkles as you go.
- Hang the shirt directly after you finish ironing. Button the top and center buttons to avoid stress on the fabric and prevent re-formation of wrinkles.
How to Effectively Iron Dresses
- Stretch the skirt portion of the dress across the ironing surface. While ironing pleats, start at the bottom and then move towards the top. Iron around the skirt with fast strokes.
- Stretch the top of the dress as flat as possible across the ironing surface. Begin with the back and then move to the front.
- Hang the dress as soon as possible after you iron it. Try not to wear the garment for a few hours, as it will be more prone to wrinkling again as the fibers would be still warm after ironing.
How to Effectively Iron Pants
- Turn the pants inside out. Start ironing the pant from the top. First Iron the circumference of the waistband and then move toward the pockets. Iron both sides of the pockets. Iron the fly, then the seams of the pants, then the hems.
- Turn the pants so the correct side is facing out. Use the iron to press out the wrinkles of the top front part of your pants.
- Put the pants legs parallel to the ironing surface, with both the legs in the same direction. Iron each leg without damaging the current creases.
Important Precautions
Tips for proper ironing:
- Plug the iron in, adjust it to the correct setting, and allow it to preheat. The iron is ready for use if it sizzles when a bit of water is sprinkled on the sole plate.
- Read the tag on the garment carefully before ironing. Some clothes should not be ironed. Others have a very low tolerance for heat, and have to be ironed at a low temperature setting.
- Use high heat for cotton and linen. Cotton mixes and wool should be ironed on a medium level.
- Use a low setting for silk, nylon, polyester, and other like fabrics.
- If you are using a steam iron, make sure there is the proper amount of water inside.
- While ironing ensure the garment has been stretched flat across the surface. This will avoid redevelopment of wrinkles due to improper stretching of the fabric and save ironing time.
- Make sure to iron clothing uniformly with even strokes. Always remember to keep the iron moving. Stopping at any point could burn your clothing.
- Iron the cuffs, and then hang the pants for drying.
Ironing Do's & Dont's:
- Avoid overfilling the clothes dryer while washing: An average dryer should be only 1/2 full in order to allow freedom for all clothing to move. If too many articles of clothing are in the dryer, it will create heavy wrinkles, and make ironing much more difficult.
- Shake the clothes properly to loosen the bonds and make wrinkle removal easier: When the clothing is removed from the dryer, it is usually stacked waiting to be ironed. Take a few minutes and shake out your clothing. Reshape garments, and smooth out seams and pleats. Even if clothing still needs to be ironed, it will be a much smoother process.
- Iron clothes while still slightly damp to ensure longer life: Clothes are very difficult to iron when they are fully dry as the dryness makes the molecules brittle, making reshaping difficult. This results in repeated ironing to get the desired finish making the strands singed and frayed due to excessive heat. Dry clothes will never have the perfect finish desired leaving the clothes looking lifeless.
- Use spray while ironing: Use the spray function to dampen the clothing and effectively loosen the bonds of the cloth when you are ready to begin ironing. Using spray will make wrinkle removal much easier off the clothing.
- Avoid Using Hard Water: There is risk of damage being caused to the iron due to hard water as it blocks the steam vents and causes calcification in the water tank due to lime deposits resulting in inefficient operation of the iron. In order to increase the life of the iron it is always advisable to fill the water tank of the iron with distilled water for ironing.
- Selecting the Right temperature for the right fabrics: Heavy clothes usually need a higher temperature for ironing. Always try to iron your lightest silk, synthetic, and delicate fabrics first. These need to be ironed on low temperatures. Once the iron heats up, and you've ironed your light fabrics, you can move on to the wools, cottons, linens, etc. which need a higher temperature for ironing.
Cleaning the soleplate
- Unplug the iron and allow it to cool down to avoid getting burned while cleaning it.
- Wipe down the soleplate with a clean cloth soaked in white vinegar. Vinegar is mildly acidic and can help to cut through residual starch that may be stuck to your iron's soleplate.
- Make a paste of table salt and white vinegar for stubborn areas of starch and dirt. Scrub the area with the paste using a dish scrubber. Wipe the area with a clean damp cloth to rinse away any residual buildup.
- When you clean the soleplate of your iron, remove residue from the vents with a cotton swab. A sharp knife or other tool may scratch the soleplate.
Cleaning the water tank:
- Pour a solution of 1/3 cup white vinegar and 1/3 cup water into the water tank.
- Heat the iron, and let it steam for about three minutes.
- Unplug the iron, and position it, soleplate down, on a small glass dish that has been placed in a larger shallow pan.
- Allow the entire water in the water tank to drain from the vents.
- Drain away any remaining solution, and flush the water tank with clear water before using the iron.

Fred Milano
Doo-wop singer with Dion and the Belmonts
Fred Milano, 72, a singer who made rock 'n' roll history on doo-wop hits with
in the 1950s, died Sunday, three weeks after his lung cancer was diagnosed, said Warren Gradus, who joined the vocal group in 1963.
Milano lived in Massapequa, on New York's Long Island, and died in a hospital, Gradus said.
Milano and his friends Angelo D'Aleo and Carlo Mastrangelo from the Bronx formed the Belmonts in the mid-1950s, borrowing their name from the borough's Belmont Avenue. They became Dion and the Belmonts after lead singer Dion DiMucci joined in 1958.
They had a quick succession of hits, including
"No One Knows" and
In February 1959, after a show in Clear Lake, Iowa, the band members boarded a bus for the next show instead of taking a charter plane that crashed that night, killing Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper.
"We didn't know what happened until 2 o'clock the next afternoon when we got to Minnesota," Milano told the Boston Herald in 2000. "It was a shock. A heartbreaker. Then when we called home, everyone thought we were dead because that's what had been reported on the radio."
After DiMucci left for a solo career in 1960, the Belmonts continued to perform and record with different lineups.
In 1967 and 1973, the Belmonts briefly reunited with DiMucci, who was inducted into the
as a solo artist in 1989.
Milano, who was born in the Bronx on Aug. 26, 1939, went back to school in middle age. He became a legal coordinator at New York's Rikers Island jail complex, helping inmates research their cases.
William Polk Carey
Investor donated millions to business schools
William Polk Carey, 81, an entrepreneur who founded a New York-based investment management firm bearing his name and donated tens of millions of dollars to improve U.S. business schools, died Monday at a hospital in West Palm Beach, Fla. The cause was complications following a heart attack, according to a spokeswoman for his company, W.P. Carey and Co.
A resident of New York City, he was in Florida for the holidays. At the time of his death, Carey was chairman of W.P. Carey and Co., which manages a global investment portfolio totaling about $11.8 billion, according to a company statement.
Carey, who made a fortune in real estate finance, established the W.P. Carey Foundation in 1988 as the vehicle for his philanthropy. Its major gifts include $50 million in 2003 to Arizona State University, which renamed its business school the W.P. Carey School of Business; $50 million in 2006 to Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore to create the Carey School of Business; and, last April, $30 million to the University of Maryland School of Law in Baltimore, which he hoped would lead to a joint law-business degree offered by Maryland and Johns Hopkins.
Carey, a descendant of President James K. Polk, was born on May 11, 1930, in Baltimore. He earned a bachelor's degree in economics in 1953 at the University of Pennsylvania.
After serving in the Air Force, he began building a career in finance. He formed W.P. Carey in 1973 with his brother, Francis, and a brother-in-law, Raymond S. Clark.
Mike Colalillo
Congressional Medal of Honor recipient
Mike Colalillo, 86, a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, died Friday at a nursing home in Duluth, Minn., according to the Dougherty Funeral Home. No cause was given.
Colalillo was awarded the nation's highest military honor for bravery in combat for killing or wounding 25 Germans and helping a seriously wounded comrade to safety during a fierce firefight near Untergriesheim, Germany, on April 7, 1945, toward the end of World War II.
According to
the private first class was pinned down with other members of his company. The rifleman stood up amid heavy artillery, mortar and machine-gun fire, shouted to the company to follow, and ran forward while firing his machine pistol.
When his pistol was disabled by shrapnel, Colalillo climbed onto a friendly tank and manned its machine gun. And, according to the citation, as "bullets rattled about him, [he] fired at an enemy emplacement with such devastating accuracy that he killed or wounded at least 10 hostile soldiers and destroyed their machine gun."
After that gun jammed, he borrowed a submachine gun from the tank crew and continued the attack on foot. When his company was ordered to withdraw, Colalillo remained behind to help a wounded soldier cross "several hundred yards of open terrain rocked by an intense enemy artillery and mortar barrage," the citation said.
"What he told us," said his daughter, Michelle Schneeberger, "was that it happened so fast that he didn't realize what he was doing. He just did it because it had to be done."
Colalillo was born Dec. 1, 1925, in Hibbing, Minn. After the war, he worked as a laborer for an iron company and as a longshoreman.

One day a prince came and tried to marry Turnadot, but she refused to marry him. The prince kept on trying to get the princess to fall in love with him. The prince finally thawed the princess' heart and they fell in love and got married.
I like this book. It is my favorite book. I think the author did a really good job writing it because I could really picture the story in my mind.
I like Turandot because she is really beautiful in every way. But mostly because the illustrator made her beautiful.
The whole reason I like this book is because the illustrator did the best artwork I have ever seen in my life. That is why I think he is my favorite illustrator.
I recommend this book to any age kid, but younger kids might need to have the story read to them.

Notes and observations from the first quarter of the Raiders-Browns game:
— Johnnie Lee Higgins wants no part of Charlie Frye pass with defenders approaching. Frye escaped, rolled right. Raiders also get a a false start penalty. Waste the possession in terms of points, but pin Browns at the 9 at the end of the quarter on Shane Lechler punt.
— Raiders squib kick to negate Joshua Cribbs _ Hiram Eugene nearly recovers it. Jerome Harrison dives on ball and is injured. Cribbs loses yard on first Wildcat run, with Matt Shaughnessy making tackle.
Gerard Warren pushes Derek Anderson out of pocket, Raiders force punt. Raiders will open near midfield after 3-yard return by JLH after short punt.
— Raiders rolling on third possession. Nice 15-yard screen to McFadden, 16-yard strike to Chaz Schilens, 14-yard run by Michael Bush. Cornell Green hold hold/takedown negates first-down red zone pass to the 2 to Louis Murphy.
Schilens can't hold third-and-14 pass _ should have caught it. Sebastian Janikowski converts 44-yard field goal to trail 10-3 with 2:48 left in the quarter.
— Matt Shaughnessy sack leads to second-and-18 _ and Raiders promptly give up first down pass, Anderson to Evan Moore, 19 yards. Harrison has consecutive runs of 9 and 10 yards, stepping out of ankle tackles by Kirk Morrison each time.
Harrison has a quick 40 yards rushing, and Raiders interior line _ Gerard Warren in particular _ is being dominated.
Phil Dawson converts 42-yard field goal attempt for 10-0 lead.
— Raiders second series _ attacking deep ineffectively. Two incompletions to Schilens, an overthrow and catch out of bounds. Short McFadden run, and punt.
— Awful start for Frye. First pass directly to David Bowens. Supposed to be a slant to McFadden. It leads to a 17-yard scoring run by Harrison. Left side of Raiders line is caved in.

Programme des Villes du patrimoine mondial
Cette page n'est pas intégralement disponible en français, vous pouvez la consulter en anglais.
The World Heritage Cities Programme is one of six thematic programmes formally approved and monitored by the World Heritage Committee.
It aims to assist States Parties in the challenges of protecting and managing their urban heritage. The programme is structured along a two-way process, with 1) the development of a theoretical framework for urban heritage conservation, and 2) the provision of technical assistance to States Parties for the implementation of new approaches and schemes.
Concerned by the multitude of World Heritage Cities facing difficulties in reconciling conservation and development, the World Heritage Committee at its 29th session in Durban, South Africa (July 2005) requested the development of a new standard-setting instrument to provide updated guidelines to better integrate urban heritage conservation into strategies of socio-economic development. The World Heritage Committee relegated this task to UNESCO in view of the fact that such challenges were faced by all historic cities, not only those inscribed onto the World Heritage List, to muster the broadest possible support from the international community, and to underline the role of UNESCO as standard-setting organization.
As part of this policy process that lasted 6 years UNESCO set up the Historic Urban Landscape initiative, an international working group comprising ICOMOS, IUCN and ICCROM (as Advisory Bodies to the 1972 World Heritage Convention) and other partner organizations, including UIA (International Union of Architects ), IFLA (International Federation of Landscape Architects ), IFHP (International Federation for Housing and Planning), OWHC (Organization of World Heritage Cities), the Aga Khan Trust for Culture, IAIA (International Association of Impact Assessment), the World Bank, UN-Habitat, UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme), OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development), IDB (Inter-American Development Bank), ISoCaRP (International Society of City and Regional Planners), the J. Paul Getty Foundation and WMF (World Monuments Fund), as well as individual experts from different geo-cultural regions and professional backgrounds.
Expert meetings
From 2006 to 2010, eight international expert workshops were organized in Jerusalem (June 2006), UNESCO Headquarters in Paris (September 2006), Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation (January 2007), Olinda, Brazil (November 2007), Chandigarh, India (December 2007), UNESCO Headquarters in Paris (November 2008), Stone Town, Zanzibar (December 2009) and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (December 2009). The meetings identified new threats and challenges to historic cities preservation that were not present when the last UNESCO Recommendation on this subject, i.e. the 1976 Recommendation concerning the Safeguarding and Contemporary Role of Historic Areas, was adopted and suggested inclusion of concepts that have emerged since 1976, such as those of cultural diversity, intangible heritage and the role and traditions of local communities, among others.

New Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape
On 10 November 2011 UNESCO's General Conference adopted the new Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape by acclamation, the first such instrument on the historic environment issued by UNESCO in 35 years. The Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape will not replace existing doctrines or conservation approaches; rather, it is an additional tool to integrate policies and practices of conservation of the built environment into the wider goals of urban development in respect of the inherited values and traditions of different cultural contexts. This tool, which is a "soft-law" to be implemented by Member States on a voluntary basis.
In order to facilitate implementation, the UNESCO General Conference recommended that Member States take the appropriate steps to:
- adapt this new instrument to their specific contexts;
- disseminate it widely across their national territories;
- facilitate implementation through formulation and adoption of supporting policies; and to
- monitor its impact on the conservation and management of historic cities.
It further recommended that Member States and relevant local authorities identify within their specific contexts the critical steps to implement the Historic Urban Landscape approach, which may include the following:
- To undertake comprehensive surveys and mapping of the city's natural, cultural and human resources;
- To reach consensus using participatory planning and stakeholder consultations on what values to protect for transmission to future generations and to determine the attributes that carry these values;
- To assess vulnerability of these attributes to socio-economic stresses and impacts of climate change;
- To integrate urban heritage values and their vulnerability status into a wider framework of city development, which shall provide indications of areas of heritage sensitivity that require careful attention to planning, design and implementation of development projects;
- To prioritize actions for conservation and development;
- To establish the appropriate partnerships and local management frameworks for each of the identified projects for conservation and development, as well as to develop mechanisms for the coordination of the various activities between different actors, both public and private.
The Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape was adopted on 10 November 2011 at the 36th session of the General Conference. The Recommendation on the Historic Urban Landscape, including a glossary of definitions can be found from [here].

The African-American history of Nashville, Tennessee, 1780-1930: elites and dilemmas
University of Arkansas Press, 1999 - History - 314 pages
Since its founding, Nashville has been a center of black urban culture in the Upper South. Blacks -- slave and free made up 20 percent of Fort Nashborough's settlers in 1779. From these early years through the Civil War, a growing black community in Nashville, led by a small group of black elites, quietly built the foundations of a future society, developing schools, churches, and businesses. The Civil War brought new freedoms and challenges as the black population of Nashville increased and as black elites found themselves able -- even obliged -- to act more openly. To establish a more stable and prosperous African-American community, the elites found that they had to work within a system bound to the interests of whites. But the aims of this elite did not always coincide with those of the black community at large. By 1930, younger blacks, in particular, were moving towards protest and confrontation. As democratization and higher education spread, the lines distinguishing Nashville's black elite became blurred.Bobby L. Lovett presents a complex analysis of black experience in Nashville during the years between 1780 and.1930, exploring the impact of civil rights, education, politics, religion, business, and neighborhood development on a particular African-American community. This study of black Nashville examines lives lived within a web of shifting alliances and interests -- the choices made, the difficulties overcome.

Springs Memorial Hospital announced Friday, Nov. 30, it is implementing a temporary limited visitation policy due to the high number of flu cases in the area.
According to a news release from the hospital, the temporary policy, which begins Monday, Dec. 3, limits visitation for the following:
• Children under age 12 will not be allowed to visit patient rooms and emergency room patients.
• Those with respiratory infection symptoms (coughing, sneezing, runny nose or fever) are asked not to visit SMH until those conditions have passed.
The hospital is making protective masks available at the reception desk in the lobby should visitors want them when visiting patients.
SMH will issue a notice when the visitation restrictions are lifted.
Lancaster isn't the only Palmetto State county dealing with an unusually active early flu season.
"Our latest statewide activity report indicates that influenza has quickly reached widespread levels in South Carolina," said Dr. Linda Bell, interim state epidemiologist with the state Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC).
"Flu activity typically peaks in February and it is very unusual for us to see this number of cases so early in the season," she said. "Therefore, we strongly encourage vaccination to prevent the flu and its potentially serious consequences."
DHEC reports that since September, there have been 1,976 positive rapid flu tests in South Carolina, including 1,232 in the last week. That includes 34 positive rapid flu tests in Lancaster County, and four positive confirmatory cases determined by lab work, said DHEC spokesman Jim Beasley.
"There is enough positive activity in Lancaster County to indicate some concern," Beasley said. "I'm sure the local hospital is taking this step to be proactive for its patients."
The flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by the influenza virus. It can be a mild to severe illness, DHEC says. Symptoms include a sudden onset of fever, dry cough, headache, muscle aches, fatigue, sore throat and nasal congestion.
Bell said it can also be especially serious for the very young and elderly.
"Tragically, a child from Barnwell County has become our first confirmed influenza-associated death of the season," Bell said.
Bell said one of the best ways to prevent serious consequences of the flu is through vaccination. DHEC recommends vaccinations for everyone age 6 months and older.
"This year's vaccine appears to be well matched for the circulating influenza strains and is expected to provide good protection," Bell said.
Bell also recommends:
• Staying away from people who are sick
• Stay home from work, school and errands if you are sick to help keep others from getting sick.
• Cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze. Use a tissue if one is handy and throw it away immediately after use. Otherwise, use your upper sleeve.
• Wash your hands often and thoroughly.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs are often spread when someone touches something covered in germs and then touches their eyes, nose and mouth.
"Other good habits include getting plenty of sleep, engaging in physical activity, managing stress, drinking water and eating good foods to help you stay healthy in the winter and all year," Bell said.

Litigation Release No. 20730 / September 19, 2008
Securities and Exchange Commission v. Timothy M. Roberts, Case No. 06-cv-1611 T-23EAJ (M.D. Fla. filed May 16, 2006)
SEC Settles Charges With Video Game Executive
The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that it has settled charges with Timothy M. Roberts, the former Chief Executive Officer of Seattle-based video game developer Infinium Labs, Inc. (also known as Phantom Entertainment, Inc.). As part of the settlement, Roberts agreed (without admitting or denying the Commission's allegations) to be barred from serving as an officer or director of any public company for five years, to barred from participating in any offering of penny stock for five years, and to pay a $30,000 civil penalty.
The settlement stems from a complaint filed by the Commission in May 2006 (as amended in May 2007) in federal court in the Middle District of Florida. According to the complaint, Roberts hired a stock promoter in November 2004 to send faxes to tens of thousands of potential investors across the country. The faxes made it appear as if Infinium Labs were on the verge of launching its flagship product, a home videogame system called the "Phantom." In fact, at the time of the fax campaign, Infinium Labs lacked the financial resources to overcome the significant technological and manufacturing hurdles preventing it from marketing the game system to consumers. The faxes also included baseless stock price targets, predicting that Infinium Labs' stock price would rise as much as 3,000% in the coming weeks.
The Commission alleges that, over the four months of the fax campaign, Roberts took advantage of the increased trading volume in Infinium Labs shares to sell his personal stock holdings without reporting the sales to the public. The Commission's complaint also alleges that Roberts paid the promoter with four million shares of his own Infinium Labs stock in violation of the registration provisions of the federal securities laws.
In the settlement, Roberts consented to a court order that:

Local landowners interested in restoring or enhancing wetlands on their private agricultural property can enroll in a federal program.
Local landowners interested in restoring or enhancing wetlands on their private agricultural property can enroll in a federal program.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service is soliciting applications from landowners for the Wetlands Reserve Program through July 19.
It's "a popular program in Louisiana," said Mandy York, district conservationists with the Natural Resources Conservation Service's Thibodaux field office.
Interested Terrebonne or Lafourche residents should visit the Thibodaux office as soon as they can to begin their application. The office is at 143 Laura Drive.
The program is a national program authorized by the Farm Bill. It aims to help eligible landowners restore, create, protect and enhance wetlands by providing financial incentives to restore the land to their natural state.
The goal is to protect wetlands, which are valuable habitats and important for water quality.
All restoration is done in an environmentally friendly and cost-effective manner, officials said.
"Landowners who are looking for the opportunity to protect, restore, and enhance wetlands on their property should consider the Wetlands Reserve Program," said acting State Conservationist Britt Paul. "I encourage any landowner who may be interested to visit their local NRCS office and submit an application for funding."
Landowners have several options for enrollment in the Wetlands Reserve Program, including restoration cost-share agreements, 30-year conservation easements and permanent conservation easements. All are designed to help landowners achieve personal land-use goals.
For information, call 447-3871, ext. 3 or stop by the Thibodaux office. You can also visit la.nrcs.usda.gov.
Nikki Buskey can be reached at 857-2205 or email@example.com.
