This post is an excerpt of the article originally written by NHELD.
Many states use the term "equivalent instruction" in their education statutes especially as it applies to homeschooling.
Did you ever think to ask why? Equivalent instruction is a myth. There is no such thing and there can be no such thing. Even if it were possible to reach the goal of equivalent instruction, why would parents who instruct their own children according to their individual needs, want or be required to instruct in a manner with methods and materials that are "equivalent" to the public school system when the public/government school system has proven in many ways to be such a dismal failure? Why should parents be compelled to abandon a superior method of individualized education in favor of a mediocre method of proven failure? Isn't it time that parents stop engaging in the argument about what laws are best to assure equivalent instruction and start engaging in efforts to eliminate from all laws any reference at all to "equivalent instruction"?
What does Equivalent Instruction mean?
Some states have statutes which say something like this:
"Equivalent Instruction" shall mean a program of instruction approved under the requirements of the compulsory attendance law as an equivalent to attendance at a public school or an approved private school.Equivalent instruction is an idea that is very difficult to prove or to emulate even within a public school system from district to district, from school to school, from class to class. How, then, can homeschooling parents be held to employ "equivalent instruction" when the very government imposing that rule cannot define it?
For example, Even if you say one should teach math as a subject ... equivalency, in that instance, means nothing – as there are many subjects in math. Any one school may be teaching math in a very different and unequivalent way than another, even within the very same school district! But even if you pick a specific subject like multiplication, that can also be taught numerous ways.
If one school teaches Miquon Math and another teaches algebraic concepts, is that equivalent instruction? Both schools are teaching "math", but yet the content is in no way equivalent, so how can that subject being taught by those two schools be equivalent? Even if they are teaching the same information, the way it is delivered may also not be equivalent. If one school uses Saxon and another uses Scott Foresman texts, are they still providing equivalent instruction? So how can instruction be equivalent? Perhaps the outcome can be deemed equivalent: you either learned how to multiply or you didn't.
How can anyone buy into the whole "equivalency argument" especially when in any given local school system, where supposedly they are all teaching the same things, the curriculum, materials, and methods are really unequivalent from school to school and class to class?
In Connecticut, there was a major lawsuit brought against the State Department of Education. In 1989, lawyers for an interracial group of urban and suburban children brought suit against the state. In that case, Sheff v. O'Neill, they argued that racial segregation in the Hartford region violated their state constitutional guarantee of the provision of an equal education. The courts agreed and ordered the General Assembly to create plans for achieving equal educational opportunity. This case was not only about desegregation, but about making equal education opportunities available to all students everywhere. Although the plaintiffs won, and the State was charged with making changes to remedy "unequivalent" education, to date little has really been achieved. Civil rights groups were back in court to again to sue the state in 2004 after concluding it hadn't met a chief goal of a 2003 settlement resulting from the landmark case -- integrating Hartford's public magnet schools. Many magnet schools and charter schools have been designed to be more inclusive and diverse, but one will clearly still get a much different education in Bridgeport (an urban area) than in Simsbury (a suburban area). The problem is not a lack of funding; it is the absurdity of the notion that every school can offer the same education to all children.
So what does this particular public school squabble have to do with homeschoolers? Well, here, again, is the whole notion of equivalency. If the public schools can not even get themselves to have equivalent instruction throughout their state districts and even within some districts, then how can homeschoolers be held to the task of meeting "equivalency"?
If the government is trying to hold parents to a standard of "equivalent instruction", ask yourself, can the government even define the standard to which they are trying to compel you to meet? Chances are they cannot. What, then, is the result? The result is to leave it up to the "discretion" of the public school official in charge of overseeing the "equivalent instruction." We know what the results of that is – arbitrariness, inequality, and, all too often, abuse of authority.
If there were such a thing as equivalent instruction there would be one textbook company, one method of delivering information, and one curriculum for all. Perhaps that may exist in a Communist regime, but for the time being it does not exist in a free society such as ours.
Education cannot be homogenized and made into a one size fits all or one product that can be consumed by all. Education must be unequivalent to meet the needs of each child, and how they learn. In reality, education even within the public school system already is and will continue to be unequivalent. Don't be fooled into thinking otherwise.
Additionally, why should homeschooling parents who already are providing a superior and individualized education to their children bow to the pressures of those who have so miserably failed in operating the public/government school system and succumb to providing "equivalent instruction"?
The education the public/government school purveyors provide should not be emulated. It should be eradicated. Public/government school purveyors can see the success of parental instruction. They see the numbers of parents who are instructing their children continue to grow. They see an ever-increasing threat to their existence. They see that parents with no formal teaching credentials are raising and educating children in a far better manner than people who claim expertise in the field of education. This is precisely why organizations like the National Education Association and their affiliates are so squarely opposed to homeschooling. They need to maintain control over parents to stem the tide of a mass exodus from the public schools. They seek to maintain this control by manipulating the minds of parents and of government leaders. The public/government school purveyors have been successful so far at this. They have succeeded in convincing government leaders into adopting laws that require parents to show "equivalent instruction". For the most part, they have succeeded in convincing parents that their argument about "equivalent instruction" is a valid one. Parents have fought the adoption of laws requiring "equivalent instruction", but have not fought the basic premise behind the laws. The premise is false. Public/Government school instruction is not superior. Public/Government school instruction is far inferior to that individualized flexible instruction a parent is able to provide. Why, then, should parents who are providing superior instruction be compelled to forsake the superior instruction in order to provide the inferior "equivalent instruction" of a public school?
If your state law requires you to show "equivalent instruction", work as hard as you can to get it changed. Tell your legislators that you don't want to be forced to provide inferior instruction to your child. Let them know that the concept of "equivalent education" is a myth.

The face of China is changing...and so is its water. Water pollution, wastewater treatment and water resource protection have become a top priority for the Chinese government. Over the last ten years, the Chinese government has enacted a number of anti-pollution laws and has begun to educate their citizens on the importance of water resource management. China's Ministry of Construction proposed last year that the central government allocate $2.4 billion USD to combat water pollution over the next five years.
"A decade ago, you could not see a single fish in any of China's main rivers, especially the Suzhou River. " said Alex Xu, Manager for Shanghai Yuandong Science & Technology Ltd., System Integrators for a number of water projects throughout China. "I was living by the river at that time and had to put up with the smell from the river over 200 days out of the year. But things are changing quickly in China. Now I regret that I moved away from the river because today it is clean and fish and crabs have reappeared."
Numerous projects have been implemented throughout China to help regulate methods for optimizing water distribution. Many drinking water and wastewater facilities have been built or are in the planning stages along China's many waterways. The coastal city of Shanghai, with a population of over 16 million, has positioned itself as a leader in this drive to revamp China's water resources. Shanghai's Mayor Xu Kuangdi stated at a conference on environmental protection that the "Shanghai government pledged to transform Shanghai into an ecological city."
Shanghai Wastewater Treatment Plant
Under the City of Shanghai, ten huge pumping stations went on line recently pumping wastewater to the pre-treatment plant at Pudong for purification before being discharged into the East China Sea. At Pudong, the waste is purified before being discharged at a rate of 1.7 million cubic meters per day through a 41-kilometer pipeline. These pump stations are part of the latest phase of Shanghai's Waste Water Treatment Project (SWWTP) under the auspices of the Shanghai Municiple Sewage Company.
In 1993, Shanghai Municipal Sewage Company conceived the development of a new wastewater treatment plant for the city. Plans were discussed and in 1998 the Shanghai Waste Water Treatment Project (SWWTP) was begun. The project is being implemented in stages and involves the installation of approximately 50 huge pumping stations throughout Shanghai.
Central Control
In January of 1999, General Electric International began the construction of the central monitoring control system, which
included a centralized master control station and a total of 34 remote stations located throughout Shanghai, including Pudong.
The Master station, using Australian-developed Managed Information Technology Solutions (MITS) MOSAIC data acquisition and control technology, communicates to both Allen-Bradley and General Electric hardware. Many water control systems are PC-based and require a high level of manual intervention, but the MITS system is highly automated. While monitoring the passage of water, automatic adjustments can be made to make the most efficient use of energy and pumping equipment and pinpoint problems in emergencies.
DNP Protocol Specified
Immediately following the installation of the central control system, Rockwell Automation in Shanghai was contacted to bid on the installation of the SCADA system to control, collect and monitor data from the 10 pump stations, some of which are as far as 30 miles away from the Master station. In order to communicate with the end devices, the DNP protocol was specified.
DNP (Distributed Network Protocol) is an open communication protocol developed to achieve interoperability among systems specifically in the electric utility, oil & gas and water/wastewater industries. This non-proprietary protocol, available worldwide, was designed to optimize the transmission of data acquisition information and control commands. It is a highly efficient and reliable communications protocol between substation computers, RTUs, IEDs and master stations. DNP is also a layered protocol, featuring time stamping and True Report by Exception (TRBE).
Allen-Bradley hardware was the preferred choice, however, Allen-Bradley's DH+ network contained Polled Report by Exception (PRBE). Polled Report by Exception only allows the slave to send its data when the master polls. With a system this large and complex, True Report by Exception (TRBE), which allows the slave to send its data whenever a change of status occurs, was needed. The DNP protocol was chosen because it contained TRBE as well as Date and Time Stamping.
Integration Solution
Since both General Electric and Allen-Bradley equipment were used in the plant, a DNP interface was needed to allow them to communicate with all of the DNP compatible end devices. Shanghai Electrical Apparatus Research Institute (SEARI), the system integrator for the project approached Rockwell Automation Shanghai for an integration solution. Rockwell engineers demonstrated the ability of the Allen-Bradley PLC-5s to communicate with the DNP protocol through the use of a special communications module produced by Rockwell's Encompass Partner, ProSoft Technology, Inc.
"Since ProSoft's 3800-DNP module* has two communication ports, SWWTP were able to install a PLC5 backup system as well as a redundant communication system," said Lenus Hong, Asian Regional Sales Manager for ProSoft Technology. "DNP Port 1 is connected to the Master Station via lease lines, while Port 2 allows a modem dial up connection. If communications should go down on Port 1, the Master still has dial up capabilities."
Dual Redundancy
Redundancy is a key issue in most wastewater system, a fact emphasized by Zhou Ping, Rockwell Automation Shanghai's Senior Sales Engineer.
"When a pumping station has gone down, it can be very embarrassing for the client," he says. "Potentially, there can be wastewater in the street. This means that the reliability of the entire control system is critical. It has to run all the time, with few maintenance or operations personnel."
The pump stations are comprised of 6 to 8 pump sets each—4 to 6 for duty plus 2 stand-by pumps. The pumps range in size from 30 kW/760 cubic meter per hour to 145kW/2590 cubic meters per hour.
The control and data communications system contains a "hot backup" mode. It is comprised of two Allen-Bradley Remote I/O processors so that in the event of a failure in the primary controller, the system will automatically switch to the backup processor.
Flow and Level Control
Through a network of flow and level meters, level and flow data is relayed back to the central control station for monitoring and control. In order to ensure accurate control, Shanghai Municipal Sewage Company specified a quick feedback time between pump station PLCs and the central control station.
"Our client specified a system feedback time of better than 20 milliseconds," said SEARI project engineer Zhou Zhiwei. "This is why we adopted the PLC-5 series processor coupled with the ProSoft DNP modules. It's the first time the DNP module has been used in Mainland China and it's been a great success."
What the Customer Needs
When Rockwell Automation Shanghai contacted their Encompass Partner, ProSoft Technology, Inc., specializing in inter-network communication solutions regarding their 3800-DNP module, Rockwell knew it was exactly what they needed to allow their PLCs to communicate via the DNP protocol. Since the ProSoft module is designed to fit into Allen-Bradley PLC racks, it wasn't a hard decision to make.
"The TRBE features of ProSoft's DNP module was the major factor that convinced SWWTP to award this million dollar contract for this phase of the project to Allen-Bradley," said Hong. "When RA-Shanghai contacted us we set up a demo and immediately sent it to Shanghai for testing."
The Shanghai Wastewater Treatment Plant is now operational. Plans are now being made to expand this system to cover the areas surrounding Shanghai.
*Since this project was implemented, ProSoft's 3800-DNP module has been upgraded and renamed to the MVI 71-DNP module. ProSoft also has DNP connectivity solutions for Allen-Bradley's SLC, ControlLogix and FLEX platforms as well as DNP solutions for Schneider Electric and Siemens Automation processors.
Taihe Fresh Water Factory
Flowing from west to east, across the heart of China is the Yangzi River. It is the longest river in China and the third longest river in the world. Originating in Tibet, it flows past the construction site for the world's largest dam, the Yangtzi River Three Gorges Dam, into the Pacific Ocean at the city of Shanghai. Raw water is collected from the Yangzi, filtered and purified and then sold to Tap Water Factories such as the Taihe Water Factory in Shanghai.
SCADA System
In 1995, Shanghai Taihe Tap Water Manufacture Ltd. began construction of the Taihe Water Factory. Phase I of the project established a SCADA system for the factory consisting of an ABB Modcell Multiloop Controller/Processor communicating with Modbus and ABB proprietary network, ICN. Clean water could then be pumped through a series of pipes to supply the daily tap water needs for over 43,000 Shanghai residents.
"When the factory was established," said Alex Xu, Manager for Shanghai Yuandong Science & Technology Ltd., (SYST) the System Integrators. "It used a SCADA system only to supervise the working processes without any control functionality."
In any water system, as complex as this one, the water flow can vary dramatically from hour-to-hour and day-to-day, depending on domestic demand cycles and the more unpredictable aspects such as rainfall and storms. This makes it essential that the Master Control System be equipped, not only with monitoring capabilities, but control as well.
Control Ability
"The second phase of the project planned to add control ability to the plant," said Xu. "But they found it impossible since the substations were communicating as slaves, thus couldn't exchange data and information between each other. The main problem was that data exchanged between the slaves needed to be accomplished through the master node. As long as a personal computer carried out the master task, we could not count on its performance, steadiness and security. Use of a PLC instead of the PC was preferred."
In order to add the control needed Xu added an Allen-Bradley PLC5/20E with Ethernet capabilities. However, since the original SCADA system was ABB communicating with Modbus, an interface was needed to allow the Modbus end devices to communicate with the A-B processor. The solution Xu found was the Modbus Communication Module made by ProSoft Technology, Inc.
Designed to fit in an Allen-Bradley 1771 PLC rack, the module contains two active serial ports, each supporting RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485, supports full radio, modem and multi-drop and is configured using simple ladder logic. Since the module communicates over the backplane, needing only standard ladder programming, it provided highly configurable Modbus Master and Slave capability to the existing A-B PLC.
"It was the first time Shanghai Yuandong Science and Technology had used our 3100-MCM module," said Lenus Hong, Regional Sales Manager for ProSoft Technology. " But it certainly wasn't the last. They also installed the module in the control system for the compressors in the Shanghai General Motors Plant. Since the MCM module fits directly into Allen-Bradley's PLC5 racks, in both instances, it provided a seamless integration of technologies."
"The 3100-MCM module played an important role in the second phase of this project," said Xu. "Without the ProSoft module, this phase could not have been realized."
When asked what the deciding factors were in choosing the ProSoft module for this project, Chen Zong-Liang, General Manager for SYST said, "Ease of operation, higher profits and ease of implementation...all of the above."
The second phase was completed in May of 1999.
A Unique Partnership
This unique partnership of integrated technologies between Rockwell Automation and ProSoft Technology has enabled SCADA systems around the world to gather data and control operations in a multitude of plants just like the Shanghai Wastewater Plant and the Taihe Water Factory.
"The 3100-MCM Modbus module was also used at the Xin Ning Wastewater Plant in Suzhou, China," said Hong. "According to Rockwell Automation-Shanghai, the customer needed to collect data from Diris Power Meters which have embedded Modbus communications. They elected to use the 3100-MCM module which allowed them to collect 30 parameters from the power meters instead of 3 parameters they would have gotten using Analog I/O. The bottom line is, our interface module made more data available for better control and monitoring."
"We take great pride in our ability to help Rockwell Automation interface with alternate networks," said Doug Sharratt, CEO for ProSoft Technology, Inc. "We have been able to provide a number of solutions for the water/wastewater industry in China. We are currently presenting SCADA solutions in conjunction with Rockwell on two other large water projects. One is a wastewater treatment plant involving ten pumping stations using our MVI56-101S module interfacing Allen-Bradley's ControlLogix to the IEC870-5-101 protocol. The second is a water transportation project on China's Yellow River, using one of our ProLinx Communication Gateways to interface Allen-Bradley's PLC5 processors to DNPNET."
The seamless integration of Rockwell Automation and ProSoft Technology is helping China realize its goal of enough clean, fresh water for all of its citizens.
"China has its problems," said Xu. " But it has faced these problems and is attempting to tackle them. Sometimes the progress may be a little slow and seem small, but it is steady and good willing. As the international community continues to give real help and useful advice, things will go better, smoother and expeditious."

Based on a case study of an organization responsible for publishing a magazine sold to homeless people in Buenos Aires, I examine the social uses of money in philanthropic circles. Turning to the polemic between money and gift at the centre of discussions in anthropology and sociology, I focus on two questions: a) the role of money in demarcating the limits between market transactions and gift circulations; b) the relation between money and morality. Fieldwork involved an ethnographic study of the transactions between the sellers and buyers of this publication.

VFW Post 4105 hosts 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony
Mayor Thomas P. Schneider gave the keynote address at the VFW Post 4105 ceremony on September 11, 2012 at 410 Rue St. Francois to reflect on the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon by terrorists. VFW Ladies Auxiliary President Wanda Dudley and Post 4105 Commander Dick Ellwanger invited Mayor Schneider to be the featured speaker at this solemn occasion.
All of the veteran and service organizations in the Florissant area were represented at this event. The Florissant, Hazelwood and St. Louis County Police Departments and the Florissant Valley and Black Jack Fire Departments were sent special invitations to attend to acknowledge the ultimate sacrifice their New York comrades made that day.
"Our most dangerous foe for the past 236 years has almost always been tyranny in one form of another," Schneider said.
"Tyranny is the opposite of tolerance. We have prevailed over Tyranny's Dictators who have embraced Monarchy, Fascism, Communism and Anarchism. Today we continue the process of standing up to Tyrants who embrace terrorism, intolerance, blackmail, and any other dastardly means to oppose us," Schneider continued.
"We will prevail, for we are a noble and loyal friend, but we have proven to be a brutal and determined foe. Just ask any Soldier, Marine, Sailor, or Airman what I'm talking about."
Commander Gary Claspille from the American Legion Post 444 presented Mayor Schneider with a check for $5,000 to benefit Iraq Veteran and Florissant Police Officer Michael Vernon and his family.

I admit, I haven't read The Female Brain, the book the article's author uses to support her claims, though I did enough internet research to discover that other scientists are seriously questioning the book's conclusions.
The biggest problem for me is the suggestion that because boys and girls generally tend to be born with certain traits, that when they grow up, these traits (aggression in boys, relationship-seeking in girls) inevitably translate to marked behavior differences in careers. To be fair, the article concedes that differences in leadership styles do not necessarily mean that one gender leads better than another or that either male or female traits are more or less valuable in the workplace.
But I think it's dangerous to draw these types of conclusions because it causes people to generalize. It creates artificial gender-based expectations, and when a man or a woman doesn't behave in what others consider to be a "typical" (in other words, male or female) manner, that individual gets penalized for not following the unwritten rules.
So, if a woman is aggressive about pursuing her career interests, men might see her as not feminine enough. Or if a man cuts back on his hours to spend more time with family, his co-workers might see him as less committed to his job, or in other words, less masculine.
It's easy to say that it doesn't matter what people think, but when those expectations translate to the workplace, they create consequences. For example, women are much less likely to be hired and promoted once they become mothers, in part because of people's expectations of how women should behave once they have children.
I don't like it when workplaces make gender-based assumptions, and I think it creates all kinds of inequities. But I also think family matters, and that workplaces that accommodate their employees' other responsibilities are investing both in their employees and in the future. It's a fine line. A truly fair employer needs to respect employees' needs and make sure the company's family-friendly policies are communicated to everyone without making gendered assumptions or forcing people to use those policies.

Blind since birth, widowed in her 20s, now lonely in her 40s, Marianne Fraser lives in Edinburgh in elegant, angry anonymity with her sister, Louisa, a successful novelist. Marianne's passionate nature finds solace and expression in music, a love she finds she shares with Keir, a man she encounters on her doorstep one winter's night.
Whilst Marianne has had her share of men attracted to her because they want to rescue her, Keir makes no concession to her condition. He is abrupt to the point of rudeness, and yet oddly kind. But can Marianne trust her feelings for this reclusive stranger who wants to take a blind woman to his island home on Skye, to 'show' her the stars?

"superb well written book"
excellent interesting thought provoking
the explanations of the problems a blind person faces daily, the author really understands this. very well written. I have now read everything Linda Gillard has written and feel they are extremely well written that you can't put them down. the descriptions of Skye are really great.
Very difficult to choose between the blind person and the gentleman she meets.
All of it.
All her other books are equally as good. I think my favorite might be The Glass Guardian but very difficult to choose. They all are linked/based in Skye thoroughly enjoyed all her books. A greagt Read.
"What a beautiful and wonderful story... "
I absolutely loved this book! The author kept me extremely interested in the story with the perfect characters and their personalities. Oh! And Catherine McCarron has me hooked! This is the second book I've listened to from her. She does a wonderful job in reading that doesn't feel being read to.
"Very contrived plot with a pleasant cast"
Everything was wonderful, then all of a sudden there was a silly misunderstanding that caused the lovers to pull apart, then what do you know, a romantic final reconciliation at the end. It was a different story with unusual and appealing characters, and great description, but the plot was ridiculous, and formulaic. I would have loved to see a little mystery sprinkled in or maybe some more extreme action to spice it up. I just liked all the nice people in this pretty little story and wished them the best.
"nice read, but formulaic plot"
Loved the reader's rendering of accents and the use of music to evoke vision. Besides those positives, I can say I thought the plot lacked imagination (dangerously close to ordinary romance novel) and the protagonist spent way to much time agonizing over her decisions.
"Loved the characters...,"
so interesting and different. Loved the setting but the story left a bit to be desired.in the last 1/3 ....for me, it lost its originality and sophistication and became 'run of the mill' fiction....it was like the author had trouble completing the book or was asked to change the ending. Having said that I still really enjoyed the book and the clever and original writing style of the author.
"A Must Listen to!"
I enjoyed this book so much that I couldn't quit listening until the end of it. It began somewhat on the confusing side for me at first, because I didn't realize that the two sisters will go back and forth in description of how they see what's going on in their lives. It leaves you questioning, at first, if Kier is real or not. Alas, that will be for you to find out. It has intrigue, romance, and it actually made me laugh several times right out loud. You'll enjoy it. It is Not a predictable read.

Internal Beauty - Elpida Hadzi-Vasileva
- 17 January — 28 March 2018 *on now
Creating sculptures and installations from caul fat (the tissue that encases pig stomachs and intestines) and other animal organs, artist Elpida Hadzi-Vasileva draws attention to parts of the body we would sometimes rather forget.
Internal Beauty is an exhibition resulting from Hadzi-Vasileva's residency in biomedical research labs (funded by Wellcome Trust), considering nutrition, healthy diet, our gut and how man-made, microscopic materials can fix problems.
The artworks balance the fragility of our bodies, reflecting on the delicate nature of engineered materials being developed by Dr Richard Day, Dr Giles Major, Professor Alastair Forbes and associates, at University College London, University of East Anglia and University of Nottingham.

Matthew Marks flexes its muscles as a big box space in Chelsea with the monumental show of minimalist sculptor Tony Smith's Source. Tony Smith who passed away in 1980, was born on September 23, 1912 in South Orange New Jersey. At a young age Smith contracted tuberculosis and due to his weakened immune system, he became a "boy in a bubble" as his parents constructed an isolation ward in their backyard. With limited social activities, Smith created small models out of the boxes of medicine that were part of his daily regiment.
Mathew Marks which represents Smith's estate wanted to do something monumental for the 100th anniversary of his birth. From the press release,
Source, 1967, is a monumental sculpture, which Tony Smith first exhibited at Documenta IV in Kassel, Germany in the summer of 1968. Fabricated in steel and weighing over 12,000 pounds, this work is among Smith's most dynamic large-scale sculptures. The title refers to Gustave Courbet's 1864 painting The Source of the Loue. Speaking about Source in 1971, Smith said, "It would take many lines to explain why I consider Courbet's The Source of the Loue to be so uniquely related to Abstract Expressionist painting, but I do associate it with the work of my late friends. Anyhow, when I saw my sculpture, I thought of this great flood gushing from the rock face." A key example of the painted black outdoor sculptures for which Smith is best known, this exhibition is the first time that Source is being shown in New York.
Interestingly, there happen to be two versions of Courbet's The Source of the Loue both painted in 1864.
With the version from the National Gallery being a little more minimal and emphasizing to two large dark spaces, it seems to be a more plausable "source" of inspiration. However, the Met version does appear to emphasize the three dimensionality of the scene with the river running into the foreground in a similar fashion to the leg in the sculpture. Perhaps Smith's sculpture should be renamed "Sources".

As the search continues for a suspect charged with killing his former partner at an Arden Hills gas station last week, the reward for information on Lyle Marvin "Ty" Hoffman's whereabouts has increased to $10,000.
Hoffman, 44, of Minneapolis was charged Friday in Ramsey County District Court with second-degree murder in Kelly Phillips' death.
Phillips, who was an executive at Boston Scientific and the owner of Lush nightclub in Northeast Minneapolis, was fatally shot Aug. 11 at a Holiday gas station on Ramsey County 96.
Crime Stoppers of Minnesota and the Council on Crime and Justice, both state nonprofits, initially offered $1,000 shortly after the shooting. By Wednesday, the bounty for Hoffman was up to $10,000.
On the morning of the shooting, a witness reported seeing two men arrive in a dark-colored BMW. Bickering and swearing could be heard coming from inside the vehicle, and once the two men got out, one shot the other.
Hoffman was last seen fleeing the gas station after Phillips was shot. Investigators found the abandoned BMW in Blaine that night.
Ramsey County Undersheriff Joe Paget said last week that anyone who aided Hoffman could face a 20-year prison sentence.

Bluetooth SIG Introduces New Bluetooth 41 Specification
The Bluetooth SIG introduced the newest update to the core Bluetooth® specification, Bluetooth 4.1. This update is an important evolutionary update to the wireless standard, which received a revolutionary update in 2010 with the introduction of Bluetooth Smart technology. This updated specification aims to improve consumer usability with increased co-existence support for LTE, efficient data exchange rates, and aid developer innovation by allowing devices to support multiple roles simultaneously. The new release also lays the groundwork for IP-based connections, extending Bluetooth technology's role as the essential wireless link for the Internet of Things.
- Improving Usability—extends the brand promise to consumers with an "it just works" experience. This spec is engineered with several new features to make it work seamlessly with popular cell technologies like LTE, maintain connections with less frequent manual reconnection, and deliver a more efficient data exchange.
- Empowering Developer Innovation—provides developers with greater flexibility to create innovative Bluetooth products and solutions through dual-mode topology and link-layer topology software features.
- Enabling the Internet of Things—lays the groundwork for IP-based connections by allowing devices to setup a dedicated communication channel in the future thereby extending the central position for Bluetooth technology in the Internet of Things.
Bluetooth Smart technology put the industry on a rocket ship of growth, with Bluetooth annual product shipment projections skyrocketing to more than 4.5 billion in the next1` five years. This update to the Bluetooth specification addresses this projected growth, giving developers more control in assigning a role to their product, limiting interference with other wireless technologies and allowing Bluetooth Smart products to exchange data more efficiently while maintaining connections with less manual intervention. These updates reflect the demand we have seen in the market to date. We will continue to sculpt Bluetooth wireless technology to extend its critical role in enabling the Internet of Things and to ensure it is the very best solution for OEMs, developers and, ultimately, consumers.

"Hooray! It's chart audit day," said no one ever.
Chart audits aren't typically the highlight of my work. It's a mundane task. Sometimes it can be quite the downer, as well. I did share the audit improvement points with everyone, didn't I?
However, there are those occasions when chart after beautifully noted chart pass the marks without difficulty. Yes! I knew they would rock this!
I've had both experiences. In the same chart audit day. What's important is the overall picture, routine audit schedule, and the continuous feedback. I try not to get stuck on the chart-audit roller coaster. There's always room for improvement, and there are always opportunities to point out the stellar performances.
Whatever it is you do, watch out for the roller coaster.

True Crime Tuesdays: All is not what it seems in this six-part doc series, all accompanied by special guest discussions.
Thanks to this landmark doc from Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, few criminal trials have left a mark in the public consciousness more than that of the West Memphis Three. This harrowing and seminal courtroom documentary presents the trials of three teenagers (dubbed the West Memphis Three) in a small Arkansas town. Upon the discovery of three eight-year-old boys' terribly mutilated bodies, the town desperately and hastily seized upon the three heavy metal fans as culprits. Berlinger and Sinofsky were able to document the entire trial process with unparalleled access. Were the boys satanic killers, or was this a witch hunt gone out of control?
Director Joe Berlinger will participate in a Skype Q&A following the screening moderated by film critic and author Geoff Pevere.

It's that moment when you are ready to jump into your first Victorian dress and hold out hope that it's not as complicated as it "seams."

Progress on the *Orange* 1838 Persimmon Puff Dress
Ok, so orange was probably the last color I would have expected to sew with. Well… at least make an entire dress out of. But then I came across THIS DRESS over at the Met Museum's website. O.M.G. I was (and still am) in love!!! So of course I have to reproduce it…. ... [ Read More ]
How Long Do Reproduction Undergarments Last?
While fitting my latest mockup (an 1838 single dart bodice with back closing), I realized I was choosing to wear my rather old corset made in 2002. This isn't a bad thing as I love this particular corset – it gives a great shape and is fitted relatively well. My beloved cream cotton brocade undergarment is my tried & true friend. ...

Everyone who loves creating historically-inspired garments, at some point or another, will want to improve their skills in the accuracy department.

Savannah River Site has continued to prepare shipments of Cold War nuclear waste materials for an underground government repository in New Mexico that has been shuttered since a radiation release in February.
U.S. Department of Energy officials at SRS said they are confident the South Carolina site can complete the remaining shipments of transuranic waste to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad, N.M.
No date has been announced for when the repository will begin accepting materials again for burial in an ancient salt bed deep beneath the desert.
The repository stopped taking all waste shipments after an underground truck caught fire on Feb. 5. Nine days later, a radiation release contaminated workers.
Transuranic waste is a widely varied form of low-level waste that includes tools, lab coats, debris and other items contaminated with radiation during the site's production related to the manufacture of nuclear weapons.
SRS last sent a shipment to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant during the week of Feb. 3. As of this week, 617 cubic meters stored at the site await disposal.
"We have approximately 125 shipments remaining to complete the legacy (transuranic) waste program. We are very, very close," DOE official Sandra Waisley said Tuesday at a meeting of the SRS Citizen Advisory Board.
The DOE's fiscal year 2015 budget request includes funding to complete shipments of transuranic waste, Waisley said.
"Legacy (transuranic) waste is currently stored safely and securely in above-ground storage in facilities located in the center of the site," she said.
Savannah River National Laboratory has assisted in an ongoing investigation and analysis of the origin of the radioactive release.
There are no plans to return any SRS shipments that remain above ground waiting burial in the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.

RATS IN THE KITCHEN (UB40 Tribute)
| Fees From:
From Birmingham, home of reggae giants UB40 and currently touring England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and Europe. Rats in the Kitchen are the worlds number 1 UB40 tribute band.
Line-up & Booking Info
Box- Lead Vocal & Rhythm Guitar
Focal point of the live RITK experience and a UB40 fan since their very first releases on the tiny, independent Graduate label.The ultimate exponent of the Brummie one-liner who has sweated blood, sweat and tears to ensure Rats in the Kitchen are the formidable, burgeoning musical force that they are today.
Longdraw - Lead Guitar & Vocals
Matt is a brilliant all-rounder. Joining the band as a roadie, he then moved on stage as a percussionist before taking over the role of lead guitarist / vocalist. The phrases "that's rock and roll man", "get one on!" and "Cor look at the size of that skirt!" can often be heard when he is around.
Paul K.P - Saxophone
Paul, or K.P. as he's affectionately known due to his heads remarkable similarity to a certain well known pub snack, is a great bloke to have around. Along with having the band in stitches on the road, he also manages to get a beautiful, haunting tone out of his sax. The nearest sound you'll find to the great Brian Travers himself.
Cookie - Trumpet
A powerful horn player with a big band background, Steve comes from the far away land of Stoke on Trent and consequently clocks up more miles than any other band member. Steve can always be called upon to go above and beyond the call of duty for the good of the band.
Shed - Drums & Percussion
Sheds drumming ability is second to none. His tight, driving beats have brought the whole band tighter together as a unit. He originally joined the band last summer but on our last trip to Spain and after a few too many beers (amongst various other Spanish concoctions), he fell off the kerb and smashed his leg in 3 places! After a 3 month lay off he's now back in the hot seat and playing better than ever.
Bill - Bass
"Come with it!" cries Box and the RITKs four-stringed dreadlock warrior duly obliges with a rumble of heavy, heavy bass.
He can either be located dancing his ass off stage left behind Longdraw or, as head of RITKs acquisitions department, trying to talk the nearest bartender into a round of free drinks for the band.
Freaky - Trombone
The bands equivalent of Simon Rattle; teacher, composer, forever searching for the perfect brass harmony. Once graced the hallowed turf at Wembley where he got his bone out in front of 40,000 people. He has recorded with the likes of ska-punk scoundrels (SPONGE) and also nurses a hidden bhangra fixation.

(Masterpieces of American Literature)
Paule Marshall's sprawling novel Daughters presents another of her conflicted characters, the thirtyish urban professional Ursa Mackenzie, who is straddling two worlds: New York, where she lives and works, and the fictional Caribbean island of Triunion, where she spent her first fourteen years. Not only does she embody the clash of two cultures and the weight of history, but on a personal level she must find her own way. Choosing direct involvement over statistics, Ursa has just resigned her well-paid job with a consumer research group in order to assist the African American candidate for mayor in a nearby city. Her father, Primus Mackenzie, a powerful Triunion politician known to everyone as "the PM," disapproves of her new career, but her liberal African American mother Estelle is pleased.
Ursa shares an uneasy connection with her parents and a failing relationship with a former lover, but she maintains a much stronger bond with her best friend and guide, Viney Daniels, an assistant vice president at Metropolitan Life and the mother of an exemplary son. Viney warns Ursa, "You can't hear your own self, your own voice trying to tell you which way to go, what to do with your life." A distorted version of their close friendship is mirrored by Astral Forde, the Creole manager of the PM's faded hotel for retired tourists, and her impoverished friend Malvern, who never manages to rise.
In fact, Ursa frequently views her life...

October 4, 2013
Loyola University New Orleans is joining the fight to end rape and other forms of sexual violence by hosting the 22nd annual New Orleans Take Back the Night candlelit rally Wednesday, Oct. 23 at 6 p.m. Loyola faculty and staff can join in on the effort during the day by donating $5 to wear denim and teal—the color of sexual violence awareness.
All funds raised are distributed equally to benefit three local service groups dedicated to serving victims and survivors of gender-based violence, including the Crescent House, Metropolitan Center for Women and Children and the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner program. Last year, the Denim and Teal Day fundraising effort raised more than $2,200.
Departments participating should RSVP to Emma Cate Pegues by Oct. 9. Each department will then receive an envelope with a tracking form for donations. Participants are encouraged to wear denim and a teal shirt or teal ribbon during the day Oct. 23.
For more information, please contact Pegues at 504-865-3835.

An agreement has been reached in respect of the restructuring of Cheyne Finance, a structured investment vehicle (SIV) that has succumbed to the ongoing liquidity and credit crunch. This agreement may herald a change in fortune for the beleaguered SIV – the question being, is there now a viable restructuring option available to other SIVs facing cashflow problems?
Only a year ago SIVs occupied a market segment of approximately $400bn (£200.97bn). For more than a decade, through SIV technology, arrangers accessed cheaper asset-backed commercial paper (ABCP) and medium-term note markets to finance higher yielding and longer-term debt securities, such as collateralised debt obligations (CDOs) and collateralised bond obligations (CBOs).
During 2007, investor appetite for structured credit products fell dramatically. Concerns spread quickly from the US subprime residential market to many structured products, including residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, CDOs, CBOs, and even ABCP (traditionally considered one of the safest investments possible).
The SIV was now operating in a market with scarce liquidity. While a traditional ABCP conduit might rely on liquidity support from a bank arranger, the SIV, having more limited liquidity support, faced severe cashflow problems because it could not get funding from investors avoiding SIV paper.
The situation was complicated by the sharp decline in market value of the SIV's assets. Valuation experts had difficulty determining the fair market value of the SIVs assets, requiring some valuation teams to use a blend of 'mark-to-model' and 'markto- market' methodologies to calculate discounts on assets.
Cheyne Finance entered into a highly publicised receivership and market participants have been waiting with bated breath to see how it plays out.
One of the initial challenges in the Cheyne Finance restructuring was how to form aninformal committee comprising a representative sample of senior creditors. The purpose of the senior creditors' committee is to provide a forum in which the receiver can liaise with creditors in relation to all aspects of the receivership. Of course, the interests of the senior creditors were at odds with those of the capital noteholders. Differences arose, however, between the senior creditors over 'time subordination'. Creditors holding senior short-term debt positions wanted the receiver to repay debts as they matured on a 'pay-as-you-go' basis, while creditors holding senior long-term debt positions wanted the receiver to declare an insolvency event and make all outstanding debts immediately due and payable on a pari passu basis.
The receiver decided to seek directions to clarify the time subordination issue and the meaning of "insolvency event" in the programme documentation. Two leading judgments on these points were handed down in September and October 2007, and the receiver was finally in a position to consider restructuring and other options available to Cheyne Finance's creditors.
The receiver courted a number of proposals from leading investment banks and eventually settled on that submitted by Goldman Sachs in November 2007. This offered a solution acceptable to the majority of senior creditors at the initial stages of the receivership. In effect, a new vehicle would be created into which a majority of the SIV's assets would eventually be sold following an auction effectively underwritten by Goldman Sachs.
The proposed plan accounts for the 'optionality' that senior creditors were insistent on maintaining from the commencement of the receivership. The creditors wanted different options to be available in a restructuring plan. Some wanted to 'cash out'; some wanted 'passthrough' notes issued by a new vehicle; some wanted zero-coupon notes providing certainty on principal repayment; and some wanted a vertical slice of the underlying assets. The plan allows each senior creditor to choose a restructuring outcome that most suits its commercial needs.
Indeed, there are wrinkles to be ironed out in respect of the plan. The market will need to see how the auction process works in practice – establishing the value of the SIV's assets has been notoriously hard since the start of the credit crunch, and even the proposed terms of the auction allow the receiver to delay the auction in certain situations (for example, a continued deterioration in market conditions). There will doubtless be other questions raised when the restructuring is actually implemented and creditors exercise their optionality.
Market participants will have to wait to see if the restructuring can be successfully implemented. But if a successful resolution of the receivership is effected, creditors of other distressed SIVs could have a workable model for moving forward through receivership and leaving the worst behind them.

This year I'm sticking to the list. No extras, no impulse buys. No growing things we don't eat. Too much wasted money, time and energy. Let's see how resolved I am when I'm in the greenhouse, shall we?
The Veg:
-Heirloom tomatoes only this year, varieties to be determined by plant availability
-Sweet Millions cherry tomatoes, a fav
-Chocolate Cherry tomatoes, if I can find a plant
-Cucumbers, only 2 plants, can only eat so many cukes
-Zucchini, 4 plants this year, that's more than last year, but I plan to slice and freeze for sauteing
-Yellow summer squash, 2 plants, completely new this year, will give color to my saute mix
-Beans, beans, beans, a variety of greens and yellow, couldn't get enough beans last year and they can always be frozen
-Swiss Chard, because it is so pretty, and with a vow to actually learn to cook it and eat it this year
-Artichokes, an experiment, because we have been buying many jars of artichoke hearts lately
-Bell peppers, a garden necessity, 6 plants because I didn't get a great yield last year
-Peas, who doesn't love peas?
-Spinach, because fresh from the garden is the only way to eat it
The Herbs:
-Rosemary, lots for drying, needed in rosemary bread and my best pork roast
-Basil, many varieties
-Summer Savory
And some flowers mixed for pretty:
-White Salvia
I'm too tired to try to start a bunch of stuff from seed this year, and mostly I only want a couple of this and a couple of that, so I'm going to buy plants from our favourite nursery, Noggle's Sweet Meadow Greenhouse in Mechanicsburg.
See? I've got all my plans posted on the fridge, including my master list and shopping list.I've grouped them into families.
The Heirloom Tomato family.The Cucumber family.
The Zucchini family.The Cherry tomato family.
And that should fill my "flower" beds around the house with useful plants for the summer!

Obama's Ultra-Corrupt Department of Justice Has Wasted $100 Million in Taxpayer Money In Just 5 Years
On top of all of the other wasteful and corrupt spending by the Obama administration, we are now learning that Obama's DOJ has wasted over $100 million in taxpayer money in just the past 5 years.
The corrupt idiots, Eric Holder and Barack Obama, really have no fucking clue what they are doing, and anyone who says different is either on Obama's payroll, expecting a job with the administration, or are liberal political bundlers, benefiting from being friends with Obama. It's like the "Duo of Dunces" said "lets fly by the seat of our …

McMahon, Murphy in dead heat
Published 12:15 pm, Thursday, October 4, 2012
By Ken Dixon
Republican Linda McMahon's slight edge of August in Connecticut's U.S. Senate race has disappeared and she and Democratic U.S. Rep. Chris Murphy are in a dead heat, according to this morning's Quinnipiac University Poll.
The poll finds McMahon with 48 percent support among likely voters and Murphy, three points behind on August 28, now with 47 percent.
"Connecticut voters like Linda McMahon more than U.S. Rep. Christopher Murphy," said Douglas Schwartz, director of the poll. "But the Democrat seems to be holding his own against the onslaught of negative advertising."
Meanwhile, President Barack Obama, buoyed by a 22-point lead among Connecticut women voters, is up 12 points over Republican Mitt Romney, 54-42, compared to 52-45 in August.
"President Barack Obama lead has jumped into double digits, where it is expected to be in blue Connecticut," Schwartz said in a statement.
The poll, conducted Sept. 28 until Oct. 2, surveyed 1,696 likely voters and has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.4 percent. The survey called both land lines and mobile phones.
McMahon's 47-35 percent approval rating of August 28 has dropped to 45-41, but Murphy is in negative territory, with a 36-40 favorability rating, down from 38-30 rating in August.
"McMahon's negatives are up 10 points and McMahon's are up 6 points," Schwartz noted. "McMahon has done a good job defining Murphy, who was not well known statewide, in a negative way."
Men support McMahon 52-45 percent, but women back Murphy 50-44 percent. Independent voters, who outnumbered registered Republican and Democrats, favor McMahon by 9 points, 52-43 percent.
Schwartz noted that voters seem to have the same low opinion – 5 percent — of the professional wrestling that created McMahon's millions, as they do of Congress – 2 percent.
"There is so much that could be said about the U.S. Congress and professional wrestling, but we probably shouldn't say it," Schwartz quipped.
McMahon has outspent Murphy on TV advertising and it shows it. A total of 84 percent of those surveyed say they have seen McMahon ads "very often" or "somewhat often," compared to Murphy's 64 percent.
"McMahon's blanketing the airwaves with TV ads appears to be working," Schwartz said. "More voters have seen her ads than Murphy's and more voters think they are effective."
Murphy campaign spokesman Eli Zupnick said in a statement that McMahon is "spending tens of millions of dollars on lies, smears, and political attack ads in an attempt to distract voters from her strong support for right-wing Republican policies like ending Social Security, privatizing Medicare, and giving millionaires like herself another massive tax cut."
"McMahon may be desperate to hide her deeply unpopular right-wing positions, but Chris is going to continue campaigning across Connecticut talking to middle class families about his strong record of fighting for them, their jobs, and the issues they care about," he said.
McMahon campaign manager Cory Bliss countered that the poll showed "Connecticut voters are wary of promoting a lifetime politician who failed to show up 75 percent of the time for his current $170,000-a-year, taxpayer-funded job."
"And it tells us that Connecticut voters are not persuaded by the nasty, false attacks Congressman Murphy and strong special interest supporters are spending millions of dollars to launch against Linda McMahon," he said.
Connecticut voters rate Obama 10 percent higher than Romney on the issue of caring about their needs and problems, 62-36 percent to Romney's 52-44 percent.
Women support Obama 59-37 percent, while men are split within the margin of error 49-47 in Romney's favor. Independent voters give Obama a slight edge with 48 percent, and 45 percent for Romney.
