Stanton Osterhout, one of the stirring farmers of Carlisle, Schoharie County, was born in this town, May 20, 1852, son of Jacob and Betsey E. (Kniskern) Osterhout. His paternal grandfather, Abraham Osterhout, a native of Holland, immigrated to New York when young, and coming from Dutchess County, this State, to West Carlisle, settled upon a tract of land containing about two hundred and fifty acres. A sturdy pioneer, he improved his land into a good farm, and he took an active part in the affairs of the Dutch Reformed church in his neighborhood. He was twice married, and by both of his wives had children. Those of his second union were: Jacob A., George, Chauncy, Sarah, and Catherine. George, who was quite active in political affairs, died in 1862, aged forty-five years. Chauncy, who was engaged in business in Cobleskill, died in 1872. Sarah is the widow of David P. Brown. Catherine, who married J. J. Brown, died in 1878.
Jacob A. Osterhout, Stanton Osterhout's father, was a lifelong resident of Carlisle. After his father's death he and one of his brothers bought the homestead. He was one of the first farmers in the town to engage in the raising of hops, which he produced quite extensively, and he also made a specialty of hay and grain. He owned about four hundred acres of land. He was prominent and influential in town and county politics, took a conspicuous part in the various conventions, but would not accept office. His religious preference was for the Dutch Reformed church. He was the father of seven children, namely Josiah; Stanton, the subject of this sketch; Wilson; Alfred; Albert; Elmira; and Melissa. Josiah died at the age of eighteen; Melissa married Daniel Mickle; Elmira married Aaron Young; Alfred is residing at the homestead; and the others are engaged in farming in this town.
Stanton Osterhout was educated in the district school. He assisted his father in farming until after his marriage, when he purchased the property known as the Young estate, which was formerly owned by his father. This farm, which originally consisted of one hundred and fifty-five acres, he has enlarged by the addition of adjoining land. He divides his time between dairy farming and the cultivation of hops. He keeps from twenty-five to thirty head of Holstein cattle, besides other blooded stock, and is a member of the American Holstein Association.
He has served as Supervisor for at least two terms, was chairman of the Committees on Printing, Town Accounts, and Equalization, and by judicious management succeeded in making a considerable reduction in public expenditures. He has served as Highway Commissioner one year, and upon the Democratic County Committee several terms. He was instrumental in establishing the Farmers' Insurance Company of Seward, Carlisle, and Cobleskill; was one of the organizers, and is director and treasurer, of the Hop Insurance Company; is local agent for the Sharon, Carlisle, and Seward Insurance companies, and for the hop company.
Mr. Osterhout married Josephine Hilsinger, daughter of William Hilsinger. They have had three children — Orson, Elva, and Emory. Elva married Homer Karher. Orson died July 11, 1891, aged twenty years and seven months.
Mr. Osterhout belongs to Cobleskill Lodge, No. 394, is vice-president of the local agricultural society, a charter member of the grange, and a member of other organizations. He attends the Dutch Reformed church, but contributes liberally toward the support of other religious denominations.

Two weeks ago, we reported that three Tribe members would be jumping out of a plane to raise money for the US Chesed Bursary Fund - Simone Mervish of Clayhall United Synagogue, Ilai Schechter of Pinner United Synagogue and Rachel Skry of New West End United Synagogue.
Tribe programmes, particularly Israel Tour, have a huge impact on our teenagers. Tribe provides a unique opportunity for young Jews to socialise and embrace their Jewish identity with pride. Yet the sad reality is that some families simply cannot afford the cost and that's why we have created the US Chesed Bursary Fund.
All three have either participated on Jewish camps, know people that the Chesed Bursary Fund has helped and how grateful that person is, or just believe in the importance of all young Jewish children having the same opportunities and mixing with other Jewish kids in a safe, Jewish environment. Below are their photos and a video to prove that they did this brave act!
You can still sponsor them at their Just Giving pages:
Simone Mervish, aged 23 from Clayhall United Synagogue and a qualified Radiographer, loves rollercoasters and saw jumping out of a plane as the next step in her heart stopping antics. You can sponsor her here: http://www.justgiving.com/Simone-Mervish0
Ilai Schechter, aged 19 from Pinner United Synagogue is currently completing an engineering course and will then be undertaking an internship at an Israeli CCTV company. You can sponsor him here at http://www.justgiving.com/Ilai-Schechter
Rachel Skry, aged 19, from the New West End community, has recently finished her first year studying Psychology at Leeds Met. Rachel has been to Israel on a school trip and on tour after her GCSE's as well as family trips, so knows how important it is for Jewish youngsters to understand their heritage and mix with other Jewish youngsters.

Focus Media Responds to the Allegations Made by Muddy Waters
Jan 06, 2012, 16:16 ET from Focus Media Holding Limited

This transaction related to the insignificant acquisition of a regional distributor ("FMCN Jilin") in Jilin Province in northeast China to expand the Company's display network (the "Acquisition"). The Acquisition provided for three-year earnout payments of no more than US$3,000,000 in aggregate to the shareholders of FMCN Jilin.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spread whole-wheat and white bread cubes in a single layer on large baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven 5 to 7 minutes, or until evenly toasted. Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl. In large skillet, cook sausage and onion over medium heat, stirring and breaking up lumps until evenly browned. Add celery, sage, rosemary and thyme; cook, stirring, 2 minutes to blend flavors.
Pour sausage mixture over bread in bowl. Mix in chopped apples, dried cranberries, parsley and liver. Drizzle with turkey stock and melted butter, and mix lightly. Spoon into turkey to loosely fill (see handy tip below).
Handy cooking tip: The big dilemma with stuffing a turkey is that to get the stuffing to a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees usually means the delicate white meat of the turkey breast becomes overcooked and dries out.
Cook's Illustrated suggests putting the prepared stuffing into a large, double-layered square of cheesecloth, tying it off and cooking it in the microwave on high for 6 to 8 minutes or until temperature is 130 degrees. Then put entire bag of stuffing into turkey and roast as usual. The internal temperature of the stuffing will continue to rise during roasting, reaching 165 degrees as breast hits the optimum, moist, roasted stage.

Vicki Haneckow to Oliver,
show details 11:27 PM (11 hours ago)
First, let me start by extending my deepest gratitute to Dan, Dale, Olie, James, Kevin, and Brian for all your help in getting me thru this aftn, packing the rig, getting the cats home safely, etc. To Brent, my welfare is huge, and he loves those cats more than you can imagine, so pls know how important it is to him that you all did what you all did. Olie, pls tell James. Dale, a special thx to you for driving us all home and maneuvering the not-so-petite-rig with the talking cats in the cab.
Brent is doing as well as can be expected. He has broken ribs on both sides and a very minor spinal fracture and a very minor wrist fracture. Badly broken collarbone that will need to be plated in a few wks. 3 chest tubes and is intubated but they hope to take the mouth tube out tomorrow. He is deliberately unconscious (sedated) but I have been there when he starts to come around and he is indeed responsive and the brain that never sleeps, of course, is not. He can do the one squeeze for "yes"/two squeeze for "no" when I speak to him [he can't speak because the tube is in his mouth] and when the medical staff talks to him, he is able to follow their commands (i.e., stop biting the tube, stop trying to spit it out). I was in there tonight when a neurologist came in to check on him. He very quickly and deliberately moved each paw when requested and lifted legs, etc. Not shaky. Left wrist didn't move as well, but that's the one with the slight fracture and its tightly wrapped and swollen and all. They did other neuro tests and said they all checked out well. So again, no apparent spinal cord damage or brain damage. They don't seem to think there is a concussion, which surprises me a little. The helmet does not look bad, though, and it tends to corroborate what they are saying.
His vitals are good, strong, and steady and they said he is recovering as best as can be expected. They might put an epidural (sp?) in him tomorrow, as they expect he'll start coughing crap out of his lungs, which will hurt like hell. I just got off the phone with the nurses station a few minutes ago and they confirmed that he's doing fine tonight and is stable.
He is in Harborview in the Maleng building on the 9th floor of the ICU. He may be in there for 5 -7 or so days -- they don't know. I believe he can have visitors. Most of y'all are not the flower-sending type, and I would strongly discourage it. He hates flowers and is terribly allergic, so please, nobody do that! Just keep him in your thoughts.

I love this quiver. Iv tried many other quivers and this on is by far the best iv used. It hold the arrows in perfect and stays on the bow very nicely. I have never once dropped and arrow or the quiver while hunting. It is a little hard to get the quiver off the bow but consider that a good thing. Over all best bang for your buck with this one.

On fumes, in the clouds
Hours after Al Horford said he wasn't sure he had 40-plus minutes in him, minutes after he had finished playing more than 46 minutes against the Celtics, the Hawks center admitted that he was struggling at the end of Game 6.
And that might have been the difference Thursday night and why the Celtics were able to advance into the second round with an 83-80 victory.
With 2.3 seconds to go and a 2-point Celtics lead, Horford stepped to the free throw line for two shots. He missed the first. Then, strangely, he made the second one, despite the fact the Hawks had no timeouts remaining and would still be down even if he were successful.
"I didn't really think about it,'' Horford said. "That's probably something that I should have given some thought. The first one felt good, and I was just kind of surprised when I missed it.
"Looking back I probably should have tried to miss the second one.''
On Tuesday, in his second game back from a torn pectoral muscle that had kept him out since Jan. 11, Horford played a whopping 41 minutes to lead the Hawks to a season-saving 87-86 win.
But he was a shell of that player in the first three quarters of Game 6. He had just 4 points in that span. He did have seven rebounds and four assists, but also seven turnovers.
He wasn't himself.
"I was dragging, to be honest, most of the game,'' Horford said. "Then in the fourth I kind of had to dig down deep. I was like, 'Let's make one more big run at this. Let's try to win this game.' And that's kind of what fueled me throughout that fourth quarter. I was fatigued, but I knew that the team needed me out there.''
In the final 12 minutes, when he didn't come off the court, Horford led all scorers with 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting, with two more rebounds.
"I felt that I had to pick the offense up at the end of the game, and it was a little frustrating for me to get there at the end and have a chance to tie it and send it to overtime,'' Horford said.
"But I don't feel guilty, because I played as hard as I could. I left it out on the court. It didn't go the way that we wanted, but I know that we gave it all we had.''
No sore loser
The Hawks' Josh Smith had some kind words for the Celtics fans at TD Garden on Thursday. "They have some of the best fans in the whole entire league,'' Smith said. "You go out, look at the stands, there's nothing but Celtics jerseys. I don't see a trace of red in there. Understanding that the fans are that passionate, it adds the extra advantage for them.''

The tmp list is the default value of the tmp argument of the callit function, so whether tmp is global or not is irrelevant: changes to tmp will affect later calls to callit.

Food Start-up Cater2.Me Brings Local Flavor & Street Food to Office Catering, Promotes Customer Appreciation
Famed San Francisco and NYC food start-up Cater2.me is making it easy this season to give a shout out to your favorite start-ups – all while thanking family farmers. Founded in 2010, the company is dedicated to creating a lunch revolution by bringing the hottest new food trends to the company lunch table and making team meals a cultural food experience in the process.
Cater2.me was founded with the goal of connecting great, local kitchens with the masses. The idea took ground, inspired by the bountiful and thriving farmers' market community, local and passionate chefs and the ethnic food truck scene in San Francisco. There was a gap in the marketplace between these delicious and local food sources and hungry office-goers. What better place, to launch a catering business to fulfill this need than NYC and San Francisco!
So, Cater2.me decided to connect chefs, food trucks, restaurants, and top local food providers with hungry office workers in these two major cities. Founded in 2010, the company is dedicated to creating a lunch revolution with the idea of bringing the hottest new food trends to the company lunch table and making team meals a cultural food experience in the process. Their mission is to connect businesses to the wholesome food scene around them, to boost better food growing practices and increase awareness on local and healthy eating.
Business Model with Local Flavor
Imagine this: Through an office catered event, employees learn of this amazing food truck that makes the best Falafel in town, sourcing the best local ingredients. Now they are aware of the local food scene and gourmet offerings. We all know how word-of-mouth recommendations work. Suddenly, more people want to check out the Falafel truck, helping local businesses thrive. A definite win-win! On the same note, the hottest gourmet chefs and start-up food businesses can get in front of a large corporate crowd, and have an added incentive to source local. The business model obviously has great potential and multiple benefits.
Give Props. Give Back.
Cater2.me is amping-up customer appreciation this holiday season through "Give Props. Give Back." It gives you the opportunity to thank the busiest "elves" that work behind-the-scenes at the startups you love.
Here's how it works:
Give Props: Happy users visit www.GiveAProp.com to submit a thank you note to one of the 50 most popular services as selected by Cater2.me. Their personal "Prop" – along with a delicious treat – is then delivered by Cater2.me to the team behind the service they selected. Participants receive a photo of their "prop" and treat being delivered, capturing the happy "thank you" moment.
Give Back: For each friend invited via GiveAProp.com, Cater2.me will donate $1 to Farm Aid to help local family farmers and support the good food movement.
When: Wednesday, December 5 — Friday, December 14
Deliveries to occur after December 15.
Where: Visit www.GiveAProp.com
Cost: $0 Nominations are free, cakes are on Cater2.me
What is Farm Aid?
Farm Aid's mission is to build a vibrant, family farm-centered system of agriculture in America. Farm Aid artists and board members Willie Nelson, Neil Young, John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews host an annual concert to raise funds to support Farm Aid's work with family farmers and to inspire people to choose family farm food. Since 1985, Farm Aid, with the support of the artists who contribute their performances each year, has raised more than $40 million to support programs that help farmers thrive, expand the reach of the Good Food Movement, take action to change the dominant system of industrial agriculture and promote food from family farms.
To date Cater2.me has served over one million meals to popular companies and startups in the Bay Area and NYC. For more information to request catering or provide meals, visit www.cater2.me.

NFL: Top 10 Impact Rookies in 2008May 11, 2008
It's probably a bit early to compile an impact rookie list, but I figured what the heck.
It'll at least elicit some discussion among you NFL gurus.
So, here goes.
10. James Hardy, Buffalo Bills WR: I like Hardy to win the wide receiver spot alongside Lee Evans. With Evans' ability to stretch a defense and go deep, Hardy, at 6-foot-5, should have no problems catching some balls across the middle and in the end zone.
9. Keith Rivers, Cincinnati Bengals LB: Rivers will start right away at linebacker for the struggling Bengals, and could be higher on this list. Rivers could have a rookie season similar to that of DeMeco Ryans in his first year with the Texans.
8. Kevin Smith, Detroit Lions RB: Running back isn't the strongest position for the Lions, so Smith should see adequate playing time early on in his career. I expect some long touchdown runs from Smith during his rookie campaign.
7. Jake Long, Miami Dolphins OL: Sure, Long was the first pick of the draft, but this team has so much more to worry about. He'll start from Day One at left tackle, but the Dolphins will still struggle all season.
6. Malcolm Kelly, Washington Redskins WR: I think Kelly will have an impact similar to that of James Hardy of the Bills. He should push the more experienced receivers for playing time, and will get possession receptions with down-the-field threat Santana Moss playing alongside him.
5. Darren McFadden, Oakland Raiders RB: McFadden will put up solid yards per carry numbers, but won't get as many carries as Adrian Peterson did a year ago. Justin Fargas and Michael Bush will be getting carries, too.
4. Jerod Mayo, New England Patriots LB: Mayo will definitely find his way onto the field as a rookie in New England's 3-4 defense. He'll make his playing time worthwhile, no matter how much he gets. I've learned not to bet against the Patriots' personnel.
3. Jonathan Stewart, Carolina Panthers RB: McFadden was all the talk at the running back position during the 2008 draft. However, I think Stewart will have a more immediate impact for a Panthers squad that is thin at the running back position. He could rush for 1,000 yards in his rookie campaign.
2. Glenn Dorsey, Kansas City Chiefs DT: The Chiefs were one of the worst teams in the NFL last year in terms of rushing yards allowed. Adding Dorsey immediately fixes that, and he'll come up with a lot of stops in the middle for K.C.
1. Sedrick Ellis, New Orleans Saints DT: This pick could be somewhat of a stretch, but I'm really high on Ellis. The Saints were solid against the run in 2007, but the addition of Ellis is huge. I think he'll lead all rookies in tackles for loss.

I'm a selectman candidate who is pro-Gilmanton & that is all
- Published in Letters
To The Daily Sun,
To Gilmanton voters:
My name is Jim Barnes and I want to be your next selectman.
I live in the Iron Works. After a 40-year career in the propane/oil business I retired in 2011 to become a full-time singer/songwriter and entertainer. I travel the state performing music in a variety of venues. It's a great living.
To run for selectman was a difficult decision. I have never done this before. I'll have a lot to learn if elected, but I'm confident that I am up to the task. With your help I can succeed.
If elected I would come to the job with no baggage. No political affiliation to speak of. Sure, I'm a registered Republican, but not a Republican activist. It's just the way I lean. I am not a member of any group or organization in town. I've kept a low profile in the 15 years that I've lived here, but it doesn't mean I'm oblivious to what goes on. I just don't have any bias to bring to the job. I'm not anti-this or pro-that.
What I am is pro-Gilmanton, and that is all. This is a great little town, and if I can do a little something to make it even better, then I will be glad to do so.
If you have questions, concerns or want to offer guidance, please call me at 364-5834. But, please, not at 7:30 in the evening, as I enjoy watching "Jeopardy." I welcome your input. After all, the selectman works for you, not the other way around.
James R. "Jim" Barnes

Free WI-Fi Access offered in London's Square Mile
Published on: 17th Dec 2012
Note -- this news article is more than a year old.
London's financial district, the Square Mile has extended an existing Wi Fi contract with The Cloud to continue offering free WI Fi access with the City of London.
The agreement comes after a temporary arrangement with The Cloud to offer Free WiFi proved popular during the Olympic and Paralympic Games, with users of the network nearly doubling compared to the previous three months.
The Cloud was the first public WiFi provider in the UK to provide blanket, city-wide coverage when it first converted the Square Mile into a single WiFi hotspot in 2007. Until now the network has been available to anyone for 15 minutes, before moving to paid-for access.
However the new agreement scraps the time limit and offers virtually unlimited access time.
The Cloud also provides a free content portal with the latest news from Sky News and Sky Sports News, as well as travel information including live TfL travel updates.
Mark Boleat, Policy Chairman at the City of London Corporation, said: "The Square Mile is home to 10,000 residents, 400,000 workers, and five million visitors a year. As the world's leading global financial and business centre, the City of London has one of the biggest concentrations of smartphones in the UK so having the best communications infrastructure in place to access vital information on the move is of critical importance,"

A Saudi man was beheaded on Monday after he was convicted of killing his wife by stuffing his hand into her mouth while asleep and biting her until she died, the official Saudi press agency (SPA) reported.
Abdullah bin Yehya Addawi was executed in pubic in the southern province of Jazan close to the Yemeni border after confessing to murdering his wife.
"He was beheaded after he was convicted of killing his wife by pushing his hand deep into her mouth while she was sleep and biting her in the head, face and the ear until she died," SPA said.
Saudi Arabia beheads man for murder
A Saudi man was beheaded Wednesday by the sword in Riyadh for murder, the interior ministry said.
Salman al-Ghamedi was found guilty of stabbing to death another Saudi, Ahmed al-Qahtani, following a dispute, the ministry said in a statement carried by SPA state news agency.
The beheading brings to 76 the number of executions in Saudi Arabia this year, based on an AFP count.
In September, Amnesty International called on the ultra-conservative Muslim kingdom where 140 people were on death row to establish an "immediate moratorium on executions."
The London-based rights watchdog said Saudi Arabia was one of a minority of states which voted against a UN General Assembly resolution last December calling for a worldwide moratorium on executions.
Rape, murder, apostasy, armed robbery and drug trafficking are all punishable by death under Saudi Arabia's strict interpretation of Islamic sharia law.
Amnesty says Saudi Arabia executed 27 convicts in 2010, compared to 67 executions announced the year before.

Why use lanolin cream? This natural cream has benefits that your skin can't do without. Lanolin is also known as wool fat or wool grease that is derived from the sebaceous gland of sheep's wool. Lanolin is a fatty substance that is only found on animals that grow wool, such as sheep. Pure lanolin is a powerful moisturizer that can promote the smoothness and translucency associated with healthy, youthful skin. It is naturally occurring oil that is similar to the natural substances found in human skin. Lanolin is highly used in commercial products, but it has an auspicious beginning. For this writing, we will not get into the industrial uses but rather the uses of lanolin cream for skin care.
Lanolin cream is rich in fatty acids for free radical protection and non greasy hydration. Lanolin is another name meant for wool fat or wool grease that is derived from domestic sheep. Its naturally occurring lanolin is similar to the natural substances found in human skin. When Lanolin is combined with vitamin-e or other ingredients, it helps it to be absorbed by the skin deeper at the cellular level. Also, known as fatty alcohols, they help skin care formulations to act as efficient skin care products. Lanolin is listed as an ingredient in many emollient creams, moisturizers, hair care products, lip balms, soaps, etc.
Lanolin cream functions as a moisturizer for our skin and is commonly used to heal many skin conditions. Women experiencing nipple pain from dry or cracked nipples apply lanolin cream directly after breast feeding to heal the nipples. Lanolin cream is the right cure for cracked nipples. Many eczema sufferers find lanolin to be an effective treatment to help relieve itchiness and dryness on the skin without irritation. Lanolin is a natural defense against ravages of climate and environment. Lanolin cream helps store and maintains skin's moisture balance. Research has documented ingredients such as pro retinol, lanolin, tocopheryl acetate and emu oil to effective anti aging skin solutions. Lanolin enriched lotion works at the cellular level of the skin. This helps alleviate foot corn and other hardened skin patches by softening the skin. Lanolin cream is from sheep's wool derivative, it is hypoallergenic and harmless. Historically, lanolin has been the choice for dry skin and aging skin. Lanolin cream works by forming an oily layer on top of the skin to trap moisture loss from the skin. This gives your skin the translucent texture and hydrated look and feel. Lanolin is such a powerful moisturizer that it is used for industrial use. Such use includes protecting your car paint for many years, or protecting the vehicles interior from spills and stains. Now imagine applying this super moisturizer on your skin and what it can do for you.
Lanolin cream has been present for many years and is a popular moisturizer due to the protection and hydration it offers the skin. Lanolin products received poor press coverage due to countries using lanolin from sheep wool loaded with pesticides. It is noteworthy that you find a lanolin product that is made from pesticide free farming. We highly recommend lanolin products made in countries such as Australia and New Zealand that have strict guidelines and are renowned for their pesticide free lanolin products. Australian creams is one of the renowned producers of lanolin skin cream in Australia. This is a uniquely blended formula with vitamin E to deliver maximum results.

Good intl. service, mediocre otherwise
If you live in the US only part of the year, or are an expat, UNFCU has some of the most comprehensive (if not elegant) online banking services available of US banks and credit unions, to the point where you can set international mailing addresses. In that respect, I'mm a loyal customer because they cater to international / expat banking needs.
In most other respects, they need to improve.
* Their recently revamped digital banking still has many rough edges (especially the mobile app!)
* Their forex rates for wire transfers are a joke (use TransferWise or another provider)
* They are _insanely_ risk averse when it comes to extending credit. Requests for modest credit limits of less than $1500 were declined with a credit score of 700+ with a counter-offer of putting down $1250 in secured collateral. If one puts money in regularly, and has a spotless credit history, you'd think UNFCU would trust a customer who's been with them.
* Their non-Elite cards have a foreign transaction fee. Getting approved for any of their credit cards is already a stretch, so who knows whether the elite cards are even issued in the real world.

Building permit and other construction-related fees enforced by Metro Codes will soon increase by 30 percent.
The Metro Council on Tuesday night approved a hike that is supposed to account for the insufficient level of dollars the codes department has collected over the past few years through fees administered to acquire permits. The economic downturn has resulted in less construction activity, meaning fewer developers are applying for building permits.
The increase passed the council on third reading by a 27-8 margin.
"The codes department, and its inspectors, have a variety of things to do," said Councilman Sam Coleman. "If we don't finance these services then our districts will suffer."
But several council members questioned whether now is the right time for a fee hike.
"Pure and simple, it's a tax increase," Councilman Michael Craddock said. "Anytime you raise a fee it's a tax increase. Sometimes that's warranted, and sometimes it's not. It's not warranted to do it right this minute in some of the slowest economic times we've ever had in this city."
At-large Councilman Charlie Tygard said "raising fees and increasing costs to consumers in a bad economy is just a very bad idea," adding it makes Davidson County have higher fees than surrounding counties impose.
"It sends the wrong signal to the community in a time when we're desperately seeking new development and new projects in this county," Tygard said. "It has the potential to move some of those projects across county lines."
Terry Cobb, director of the codes department, has said a 30 percent fee increase puts Nashville on par with rates enforced in several cities with similar populations.
The majority of dollars collected by the codes department is delivered to Metro's general fund.

Free grants for single moms in Arizona
In the state of Arizona, you are bound to meet an abundance of single mothers working as well as trying to study in order to meet the expenses of their children, themselves as well as their education. This often becomes an extremely difficult thing to carry all at once on one's shoulders. Single mothers are not always rich, and work really hard to fulfill the wishes of their young ones. Without any paternal support, their work increases tenth fold and they must nurture and care for the child just as the father would, and also provide motherly love, as well as earn money for the family. As well as fulfilling her duties as a mother and taking care of the household, she must also study in order to earn and make a future for herself.
This would allow her to stabilize her life and give a better and more educative atmosphere for her child. Free grants for single moms in Arizona are readily available, and they have helped many single mothers in picking up the pieces and having the power and strength to face life again. Several firms and organizations have also been set up, which provide free grants for single moms in Arizona, and one of them is The Arizona Business & Professional Women's Foundation Scholarship, which is aimed at helping single mothers of over 20 years age. Those women who had to drop out of college in order to care for their child now have an option to resume college and complete their studies, which would only be beneficial for them in long run. Several others trusts and funds also offer free grants for single moms in Arizona to complete their studies as well as care for their households.
Since President Obama took over, the federal government has also played a major part in helping single mothers manage their lives in a more effective manner. Especially in the state of Arizona, this has been a big help to single mothers and a welcome relief as they can now concentrate on their education as well as their child and not have to worry about sources of finance because the government, along with the several non governmental organizations who are there to help them.
This brings about the helpful nature of the people towards single mothers, whose lives are often in distress because of the mental trauma that they go through. They often have to sacrifice everything in life, which for many, is not the easiest thing to do. And so, it becomes the right of the government to provide free grants to single moms in Arizona and help them with as much conviction as they can. These single mothers are a role model for their society in their willingness to support their child, and they are willing to lose everything just for the sake of the little kid.

In the 7 day challenge, today's topic is: Answer one question I think people visiting my blog may have.
Let's be honest: I have no idea what question you guys/gals may have. Y'all need to speak up more for me to discern that.
So that leaves me with a choice – I can come up with some completely self-serving question like "what's the best post you've written?" or I can make up something that allows me to talk about something I want to talk about.
I don't really feel like doing either of those, so let's go with this: "how geeky are you, really?"
Well, let's look at the evidence:
- I've never worn a costume while attending a Sci-fi convention.
- I have attended multiple sci-fi conventions.
For most of you, that's probably all you need to know, isn't it? It won't matter what else I list. That second bullet puts me squarely in geek-dom. For the rest of you, though, let's go on.
- I can quote from Babylon 5, Star Wars, Star Trek, and many other sci-fi properties.
- I listen to movie commentaries.
- I read comic books.
- I wanted to be in the A-V Club in high school (but I wasn't – though I'm not sure if this is an argument for or against geekiness)
- I've done programming and scripting in the past.
- I understand the parts of a computer.
- I still wave my hand at motion sensitive doors to "open†them with The Force.
- I own some Star Wars technical manuals, and have read them cover to cover.
- I've slept out to buy tickets for The Phantom Menace. At 4 in the morning in that parking lot I played Star Wars Trivial Pursuit against the other gathered geeks and won.
- I momentarily considered changing our wedding date when I realized Attack of the Clones was premiering that week — and while that was only a fleeting thought, I did make her stop to watch it on the 10-hour drive home from our honeymoon.
For expansion on some of the above, go read my post on the Coalition of Awesomess about my geek obsession. (and there's more evidence… I write on more than one blog.)
Now, I could go on but I think I've made my case. I consider myself a geek. But I recognize that there are some more hard-core geeks out there who may disagree and want to obsess (somewhat geekily) about the level of my geekiness. So I put it to you to vote:
[poll id="9″]
Feel free to back up your vote with derision, praise, or general observation below in the comments.

When Juneau resident Freddy Cummins looked out her windows on the morning of Dec. 30, she wasn't sure what she saw.
"I was going to give something to our dog, who was in the yard, and saw, what I thought was two other dogs," she said. "But I wasn't' sure, so I went to get my glasses and when I came back, they were gone."
Cummins, who lives tucked against the mountainside near Tee Harbor around mile 18 of Glacier Highway, said she had a hunch the dog-like animals were not of the domestic variety. She decided to bring Lena, their 4 ½ year-old golden retriever, inside.
She didn't see the "dogs" again until she let Lena back out. It was when both animals returned a second time that Cummins suspected they were coyotes. It was a hunch later confirmed by her neighbor and Alaska Department of Fish and Game employee Kirt Kondzela, who identified the pair based on Cummins' photos.
While coyote sightings in the Juneau area are rare, they are not unheard of. And according to Cummins, this pair seemed quite at home.
"It was interesting, three times I noticed them," she said. "One time one of the them took a tennis ball and took it into the woods. We also have this little glow in the dark ball that one started to play with."
At one point, Cummins said she stepped out onto her deck to get a photograph of the coyotes. Neither seemed afraid or skittish, she said.
The only bit of discomfort came when one of the coyotes began approaching Lena. Cummins said at first the encounter seemed innocent, and the animal coy. But then the coyote barred it's teeth and crouched toward the retriever.
"I thought, 'Oh my goodness, I've got to get her in here,'" Cummins said.
Interaction between dogs and coyotes has shown to have mixed results, according to an article on the Department of Environmental Conservation Web site, which states that many confrontations are about territory. Owners of large-sized dogs (over 35 pounds) probably don't have much to worry about, as a coyote will not often attack a larger animal. Cat and small dog owners, however, should be more cautious. Coyotes may view smaller pets as prey.
But Cummins was not concerned and the coyotes came and went.
"(They) just seemed to be looking for company," she said.
That's the last she's seen of the pair.
"We have not seen them since. Sometime last summer we heard a yelping up on the ridge, but we never knew what made it," she said.
Cummins said she now has a good guess what was making the noise.

In Waterbury Center, Vermont there is a place called Cold Hollow Cider. It was on our list of must-go places during the fall when the kids were little. We'd trek over Smuggler's Notch and the back way into Waterbury and spend the day appreciating all the orchards along the way to Cold Hollow. When we arrived it was like walking into a barrel of apples – just the perfume alone was incentive enough to make sure we purchased cider and freshly made cinnamon sugar donuts. Four hundred autumns later, I can still almost smell the memory. That is, if I can get past seeing the two little pigtail girls smeared in donut sugar and sticky cider debating loudly on the way home about who ate more donuts than the other.
It is one of those memories that become that thing where you say "remember back when we went to the cider place every year?" and feel a tiny tug for those days when your joints never ached and your hair always was brunette, and your kids were yet to become teenage girls. And then I start to remember the donuts and feel just awful that we would not be able to eat them today.
And then I remember that I bake stuff. A lot. Including donuts.
These aren't cinnamon sugar donuts, but there are some on the blog and in Nosh on This (just in case you'd like to buy that book today). These might even be a little bit tastier – they're apple butter donuts with maple syrup as the primary sweetener and then they're covered in maple glaze. While I would admit to not enjoying glaze all that much, this one is terrific. It's thin, and a little crispy when it dries so there is a snap when you break the donut. The glaze is a hint of maple, not an overwhelming gooey, too sweet covering. That's a fun donut in my donut lexicon.
There might be a little glaze left over and you could certainly use it for additional donut making or drizzle it over vanilla or pecan ice cream.
I bet if you look really hard in the parking lot at Cold Hollow way over in the back you might find an apple core fossil or two tossed there by two smeary faced girls who thought it was great fun throwing used apple cores at one another. Why? Because some unnamed grandfather taught them some crazy thing called Apple Core: Baltimore: Who's your friend: Smash goes the apple core. The origin is either a kid's game from the turn of the last century or from Donald Applecore (the duck) chased by Chip & Dale (no, not that Chip & Dale) and later on by Scooby Doo.
Those lemon-loving-in-laws lived on the edge, I tell you.
They might even enjoy these maple apple donuts if you fed them an apple on the side.
|Maple Apple Donuts
- 290 grams Canteen flour blend (2 ¼ cups) (see notes)
- 50 grams sugar (1/4 cup)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- 120 grams pure maple syrup (1/2 cup)
- 60 grams Greek yogurt (plain) (1/4 cup)
- 60 grams good quality apple butter (3 tablespoons)
- 3 extra large eggs
- 115 grams canola (or neutral) oil (1/2 cup)
- 220 grams powdered sugar, sifted (2 cups)
- 60 grams maple syrup (1/4 cup)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon brewed coffee
- 2-3 teaspoons hot water
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray two 6-count donut pans with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cocoa, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. In a small bowl whisk together maple syrup, yogurt, apple butter, eggs and oil. Add the wet mixture to the flour mixture and stir until combined. Scoop about half full into each donut opening. Rap pans on the counter to even out the batter and get rid of air pockets. Bake 14-17 minutes or just until a toothpick comes out with dry crumbs. Invert onto a rack and let the donuts cool completely before adding glaze.
- In a medium bowl stir together powdered sugar, syrup, vanilla and coffee until blended. The mixture may be lumpy or very stiff. Add hot water one teaspoon at a time until the glaze becomes smooth and while still thick, it should pour from a spoon. Dip each donut into the glaze until the top is covered. Hold the donut at an angle so the excess glaze can drip back into the bowl. Set donut on a rack over a baking sheet so the glaze can set – about 20-30 minutes.

While travelling to Kentucky for Christmas, I really got to thinking about the New Year and what I wanted to work on for myself. It was actually really nice, because up to that point with last year being so rough, I had just been focusing on days and weeks not anything long-term.
Here is my original list. While I was on the plane I managed to spill my water all over my bullet journal and all over my lap. Fun! Thank goodness I had like an hour left on my flight, so it dried by the time we landed. Needless to say it was an interesting flight.
The biggest thing for me this year is to just be happy. If you have noticed that most of my Positive Monday's have been geared to being happy, it is because it has been on my mind a lot lately. It is something that I am trying to find for myself. I had a big conversation with my bestie and my Mom this past week about what makes me happy and what I want to do. It hit me… I didn't know what would make me happy. I have gone so long with just coasting, never really thought about, or figured out what would make me happy. Other than candy and ice cream of course 😉
I have never really been the kind of person to pamper myself. Perfect example would be, I don't ever get my nails done. In the last two years I have gone twice. It isn't because I don't like it, that isn't it at all. I love being pampered. I just like to pamper other people, I like making other people happy. Unfortunately that has taken away time that I should invest in me, especially over the years. So this year I am really going to focus on pampering myself and making myself comfortable.
I plan on surrounding myself with people that really want to spend time with me and not add stress to my life I plan on buying more candles and plants for my apartment. I just hope I can keep those plants alive lol! (I didn't inherit my grandmother's green thumb unfortunatly). But the theme here is to bring life into my home. More oxygen and more light. Things that have more positive influence, that help lift me up instead of tearing me down.
I want to try new things, and those new things I think will help me as a person. I will spend more time outdoors enjoying life and bringing y'all with me. Which also goes back to being happy. I want to try new things and see what the world has to offer. I have always been a homebody. I love sitting on the couch and relaxing after working all day but I need to turn it up just a bit. I need to get outside and get some fresh air.
I need to spend more time designing. I have, just like in the other areas of my life, just done enough to get me by. I'm done with just skating by to get things done. I want to create things that are awesome. If I'm being completely honest here, I feel like I haven't been. Granted, it was the best that I felt that I could do at the moment but it is time to take it up a notch. Time to learn new things and new techniques.
I don't care if it sounds selfish, but this year is for me. I am focusing on me and what makes me happy. I hope you do the same.
What are somethings that you are improving in your life this year?
xoxo Meagan

This week's scent is Unplugged, with frontman Jon Bon Jovi for Avon ($30 for 50mL, 800-265-avon, avon.ca). Dave Lackie and I take an honest whiff.
He Says:
The press release promises that the blend of spicy pepper bourbon, seductive black dahlia and warm cashmere woods will evoke the passionate energy and undeniable allure of the quintessential rock star persona. Whoever wrote that is certainly Living on a Prayer. When I sniff this scent, I smell Saturday night at Kelsey's in suburbia. The kids are home with a sitter and you're sitting with your wife reminiscing about how great your last high school prom was. It's bland and a little sad. There is nothing unique about this scent. And I don't get anything that references Bon Jovi in the cheap bottle or the juice. It's just plain Bad Medicine' ★ (out of 4)
She Says:
I always remember what Ritchie Sambora says about having to like somebody, to spend 25 years standing behind Bon Jovi, staring at his butt. This scent doesn't really do the band or its frontman justice, although for the price, you can tell it's trying, hitting all the fad notes of men's colognes two and three times the price. ★★
Still feeling fragrant? Take a whiff of our other Sniffs, here.

Avram Grant was snapped walking the back streets of Bangkok alone by a group of tourists last weekend.
We obtained these exclusive pictures of the former Chelsea and West Ham boss in an area of the Thai capital that's famed for its party atmosphere.
Football fan Joe Hare from Cardiff explained: "We spotted him walking along Ko San Road by himself and when he realised we spotted him he quickly slipped into a tourist shop.
"Eventually he came out and posed for a few pictures. He was extremely embarrassed that we recognised him but he was a good sport regardless."
The lads caught up with Avram again later in the night outside a club on the main strip of Bangkok.
They asked the ex-Chelsea and West Ham gaffer if he intends to return to English football, he replied: "No, no. Right now I'm on vacation."
While manager of Portsmouth in February 2010, Grant was famously alleged to have visited a Thai massage parlour in Horton Heath, Hants, named Fu Fu's Massage & Beauty Salon.
But Grant's wife Tzofit - an Israeli actress and TV personality - defended her husband, telling The Sun : "Avram can do whatever he wants and the only anger I have is that he does not go to have a Thai massage every day.
"He works so hard he should get a massage once a day from two women."

While you can occupy your entire Las Vegas vacation with activities inside the city's limits, it would be a shame to come all the way to Nevada and not enjoy some of its natural beauty outside the city. I've managed to pry myself away from Las Vegas long enough to go see the Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and Laughlin (on the Arizona border) on previous trips, and in September, I finally made it to the Valley of Fire. While it was a place I've wanted to visit for years, I was shocked to learn that not everyone's heard of it.
When I mentioned I was going, several people asked me "What's the Valley of Fire?"
Gasp. Oh, people.
Simply put, it is Nevada's oldest state park which lies about an hour outside of Las Vegas and is filled with gorgeous natural rock formations.
In case you were wondering, The Valley of Fire gets its name from the fiery color of its sandstone rock formations. Sandstone is a soft rock that crumbles easily. It's amazing these formations have lasted as long as they have. A couple of well-known arches in the Valley have crumbled in just the past decade. People come out for the day to drive around, enjoy the views, hike and take photos; and other people go camping here, staying for longer periods of time.
If you're a day-tripper, there are two ways to get out of Las Vegas to see the Valley of Fire: Rent a car or take a tour. The benefits of renting a car are that you get to move at your own pace, stop when you want to stop, and see only what you want to see. You are in complete control of your time. And it's cheaper than a tour. (Note: You do have to pay $10 admission per vehicle.)
The benefit of taking a tour is that, as a solo traveler, it gives you a built-in opportunity to socialize with the others on your tour, you get expert information from a knowledgeable guide, and you don't have to stress out about driving in a strange place or getting lost out in the desert. (As directionally-challenged as I am, this is a very real possibility.) But it's a lot more expensive.
I chose to take a tour to avoid the hassle of renting a car, but I also deliberately chose a tour company that specializes in photography tours, because I was hoping to have some dedicated time with a knowledgeable photographer and get some tips on using my manual settings. It didn't actually work out that way. It was a fine tour, and he was a fun guide, but I got the impression he didn't know any more about the manual settings of a camera than I did. Also, he kept making the rookie mistake of standing too far away from me when taking my picture in front of landmarks. But despite that disappointment, I had a great day.
We made a handful of stops at various points around the valley, including some rock formations, sites of petroglyphs, a rest area for lunch, the Visitors Center, and the Lost City Museum. We also went on a short, easy hike at a scenic vista. There had been floods in the Valley just the week before, so we were lucky the roads were actually open.
I do recommend that if you book a tour, you choose a small group tour. (Mine was just three people, thank God.) The more people there are on your tour, the more it becomes like herding cats to get them back to the bus at the time the guide indicates. Someone dawdles and holds up the entire group, and you wind up missing some sights because you've run out of time. (Remember Gray's second rule of solo travel: Don't let someone else ruin your vacation!)
But no matter how you choose to go, just go visit the Valley of Fire. It was breathtakingly beautiful and every time we got out of the van, it was so quiet, so peaceful–a refreshing change from all the constant noise in Las Vegas. I think I'm going to have to build in "get outta town" time on every trip to Vegas in the future!

Physical vapor deposition has been the workhorse of the back-end-of-line for the copper damascene process. In this process, a structure undergoes a diffusion barrier etch step. Then, a via dielectric is deposited. An etch step then forms a gap, where the lines and vias are formed.
Then, a thin layer of barrier of tantalum (Ta) and tantalum nitride (TaN) materials are deposited using PVD. Ta is used to form the liner and TaN is for the barrier in a structure. The barrier layer is coated over by a copper (Cu) seed barrier via PVD. And finally, the structure is electroplated with copper and ground flat using chemical mechanical polishing (CMP).
For years, the industry has been talking about the demise of PVD, prompting the need for atomic layer deposition. PVD scaling below 30nm is challenging, but its use has continued all the way down to 16/14nm because of cost and proven reliability.

11 000 Eastern Cape teachers may lose jobs
2012-09-22 09:51
More than 11 000 Eastern Cape teachers are in danger of losing their jobs because of a financial shortfall.
Weekend Post
reported yesterday that a proposal to fire the teachers next year because of a R3.4 billion shortfall was being considered by senior officials of the Eastern Cape education department, including MEC Mandla Makupula.
The department has to finalise next year's post allocation by Friday and opposition parties have urged the department to beg, borrow or make a deal to secure the money.
Education committee members said they had been told by superintendent-general Mthunywa Ngonzo that the department could potentially cut 11 287 (17.4%) of teaching posts from the provincial system for the 2013 school year because of a shortfall of R3.42 billion to fund the existing 64 752 teaching posts.
The possibility of firing thousands of teachers was first discussed at a heated meeting in St Francis Bay on September 2 – attended by Makupula and senior education staff – and again at the legislature's education committee meeting this week.
Education experts warned the likelihood of the department sourcing the funding was "minimal at best" and that the axing of teachers would invariably cause an "uproar" among parents.
While opposition parties and department officials said the department was considering the move, Ngonzo denied that it was discussed in Bhisho this week.
"There is no such thing. I never said that (in the Bhisho meeting). The indication is that pupil numbers are going down and we know for a fact that there will be a budget cut," he said.
Ngonzo did concede that 10 proposals had been put forward regarding next year's teacher basket allocation as a result of budget constraints.
"The two critical driving factors are pupil numbers and budget availability."
He declined to go into detail about the proposals.
According to Democratic Alliance MPL Edmund van Vuuren, at the September 2 meeting in Cape St Francis, the issue of mass retrenchment was discussed at length.
"Senior officials from the department were there, including the MEC. There were a number of proposals put forward but the bottom line is that unless the education department finds the money by next Friday, these teachers could be without work," he said.
Education analyst Graeme Bloch said if the department went ahead with the axing it would spark a storm.
"Parents will be in uproar. It is a crazy, ridiculous and an unviable option."
The department has made little progress in complying with a Grahamstown High Court order to permanently fill more than 6 000 vacant teacher posts by November 2, having appointed 4 402 teachers temporarily by September 3.
This was the second deadline in the latest of a string of court orders against the beleaguered department, the Weekend Post reported.

Just a reminder. I was putting up a new laundry cabinet which brought me into proximity of a fire extinguisher that I pass every time I leave the shop. I am diligent in checking my safety gear but, low and behold; the extinguisher I pass more often than any other was in the red!?!
Take a moment the next time you go into the shop, before you even put your coffee down, check your extinguishers. A recharge or replacement is cheap insurance. That is all.

We had our first Better Bag Club workshop a couple of weeks ago, at GJ's in Fairfield.
This is once-a-month workshop that you can drop in and out of, working on whatever YOU SEW GIRL pattern, or project from The Better Bag Maker or You SEW Girl that you like. I'm there to troubleshoot and show tips and tricks and techniques. My maximum class size is 8 participants, so that's a lot of one-on-one attention. Everyone works on their own project, but the group also allows for soaking in the learning experiences of a wide range of projects, if that's what you'd like to do.
The room is big and light and airy, and lunch is provided, and we had a lovely time last month. A couple of the gals are off to far-flung and exotic places this month, so there are places open for 26th August, if you'd like to come along.
And GJ's have new stock of The Better Bag Maker, in case you're looking for it.
For the last 10 weeks, I've (unexpectedly) been teaching almost every weekday in the city. It cuts into my pattern-development and general life-organisation time, but at least I get to watch the changing landscape of the guerrilla crafting on these (anti-car-on-footpath) cement blocks outside Southern Cross Station.
I've started teaching a new subject in my college job. For me, this is always an exciting thing to do - if a tad time-consuming - as I madly gather new ideas and develop resources for students. It's a fundamental design subject about ideas generation and exploring a wide range of materials, so my brain has been POPPING with ideas about thinking outside the square, how to look sideways and all those other cliched phrases about originality in design.
Quiet moments in the staffroom have been spent crocheting bread bags. At home, I've been exploring all manner of paper folds and tessellations. I've been folding, weaving and melting plastic milk bottles and spiralising water bottles to make string. My Pinterest boards have filled with architecture, interior design, industrial design and origami-inspired ideas. It's stimulating and exciting to use other parts of my brain, and to look further afield for inspiration.
As we near the end of this term, and I prepare for the next deluge of marking, my mind is turning back to the garment patterns that are in development. I'll be ploughing back into those over the next couple of months and calling out for pattern testers (and there will be free versions of patterns to try in my classes at Cutting Cloth, for anyone who wants to test them there). Watch Facebook, Twitter and Insta for more immediate updates on those patterns.
So yes... Busy times....Life is a constant juggling act.... Inspiration is everywhere.... And please excuse my lack of online activity lately. I'm still here, and all is well.

Win the Super Bowl, get a reward.
The Seattle Seahawks will give head coach Pete Carroll a contract extension Friday, according to the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
The team on Thursday evening also announced a news conference at 10:30 a.m. PDT Friday at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center, the Seahawks' lakeside headquarters in Renton. The reason for the news conference was not disclosed.
As Rapoport noted on Twitter, a new contract would replace Carroll's current five-year contract for $35 million, which runs through the 2014 season. If the new contract were for five years, it would keep Carroll in Seattle through the 2018 NFL season.
Carroll, 62, has a 43-28 overall record with the Seahawks, including the playoffs and Seattle's 43-8 victory over the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII on Feb. 2 in East Rutherford, N.J. He has a 77-61 overall record in 14 years as an NFL head coach, including the postseason and his days with the New York Jets and New England Patriots in the 1990s.
Seattlepi.com will have further information after the Seahawks' Friday news conference.
#Seahawks coach Pete Carroll's original 5-year, $35M contract ran through 2014. After winning a Super Bowl, he gets an extension tomorrow.
