"It serves to call to remembrance"
Francis C. Whiston explained:
At the close of the ceremony, and after the delivery of the magnificent oration by Daniel Webster, the Masonic portion of the assembly unclothed, preparatory to proceeding to what was more properly known as Bunker Hill, where a sumptuous dinner was partaken of by several thousand persons. As my position, as one of the marshals of the day, gave me the opportunity of being near the person of General Lafayette, I received from him, in that graceful, bland, and affable manner so peculiar to himself, the Masonic apron he had worn during the ceremonies of the day, and which I have faithfully preserved as a valuable memento of that great man, and the interesting and important event it serves to call to remembrance.Whiston gave the apron to the lodge, which still holds it.
Ironically, Whiston's grandfather Obadiah Whiston, a Boston blacksmith, had left Massachusetts with the British military in March 1776 under suspicion of leaking some of the Patriots' most sensitive secrets to the Crown. I'm not sure he ever actually did, and his widow and children were back in Massachusetts soon after the war (if they ever left). But Francis C. probably didn't say much about that part of his family history, if he even knew.
The image above, sheet music for "The Bunker Hill Quick-Step," appears in the Boston Public Library's Flickr collection of Bunker Hill Monument images.

Apple Bay
Released: 19-02-2007

- Simple Chords
- Stardust
- To Be With You
- Little Things (that tear us apart)
- Waterfront
- Only You
- Into The Sun
- Cold Feet
- Accidently Yours
- Baby I Love Your Way
- Summer's Gone

"I love you. I love you. I love you." It's almost impossible to talk about Irene's debut without using ecstatic clichés. Apple Bay is an album without a single weak moment. This is twelve timeless pop songs, each one good enough to be a single anytime, any year. It's an album that would have sounded just as good in 1962 as it will do in 2012. You'll love it!
"Don't you know, that it's the crazy little things that always tear us apart? Du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du". Like Bob Dylan on a Supremes diet Irene's very own frontman, Tobias Isaksson (aka Bobby) stumbles ecstatically over the words with a euphoria that makes you wonder if the man is overwhelmingly happy or totally miserable. Twenty five minutes of musical history.
"Baby I love you. Baby I love your way. Du-du-du-du-du-du-du. Baby I want you. Baby I want you to stay. A-ha…"

Personal Acceptance
All educators (parents and teachers) want to help their children or students in their education and personal training. But in order to help a person it is necessary to accept it unconditionally and point it out with love.
A writer said that to influence positively in a friend we have previously won his heart, his friendship and appreciation. It is almost impossible that anyone accept an advice from someone else if the person does not feel understood and accepted. If that child or student feels criticized or unappreciated, he will not improve anything. Instead, He will consider mobbed and he will hide to protect him.
Research to enhance the positive image that the kids can form themselves has been conducted. Conclusions indicate that the most influential factor is the understanding of the feelings of the young. When we recognize their emotions, children grow and change positively. For example, if we observe that a guy is afraid of a dog is better to say him, "That dog has frightened you" instead of reproaches him: "A brave boy is not afraid of a dog." In the same way, if we look crestfallen and sad it is preferable to tell him: It seems you're upset about something. If you want we can talk about it, instead of say "No more tantrums in this house. Go to your room until you are calm. "
When the boy understand that his feelings are legitimate and that parents accept when he are afraid of a dog and when he is sad, it helps him feel good about himself and improve his positive personal image.
Acceptance of others must be accompanied by an unqualified and unconditional affection. Parents always love their children although they sometimes do not approve everything they do or say. They do not take their affection away when because of lack of strength, ability or interest; children do not reach expected school grades or commit one or a thousand of pranks or atrocities.
For a Christian, divine love is the true foundation of its dignity and self-esteem as a person.
In conclusion we could say that when we observe a defect in the pupil is preferable to say an encouraging word instead of humiliate him and throw what he did in his face.

Share your Christmas card ideas on ScrapScene! Please click here for details on how to submit your card idea. See all previously featured cards here.
Thank you to JoAnn Burnham, from Florida, U.S.A., for submitting today's featured card. JoAnn has written up some details below on how her card was made.
"Here's my card for this week's MFT sketch challenge #95. I thought about doing a poinsettia for the bottom right element, but settled on an ornament from MFT's Christmas Ornaments stamp & die set. The "Joy" is from the Seasonal Sentiments, Triple Scoop Free Set for October. I love it. I inked the edge of the ornament with Cherry Cobler ink to give it some dimension. The little ornament top is cut from SU Daffodil Delight. I tied a SU Cherry Cobler Bakers Twine bow on top and mounted it on foam tape also. All the papers are SU: Be of Good Cheer DSP, Cherry Cobler, Gumball Green, and Whisper White CS. The image is MFT Sending You A Little Christmas. I colored her with Copics and paper-pieced her hat & coat. I added some Clear Rock Candy Distress stickles to her hat cuff & boot cuffs. She is mounted with foam tape onto a WW panel embossed with a Sizzix EF. The border on the red stripe paper is MFT Faux Crochet Border die.
The finished card is 5-1/2 x 5-1/2."
Thanks, JoAnn! Please stop by and visit her at her blog here.

My first panel of Tales 2k8 was also among the discussions I most eagerly awaited. I am not what you might call a dedicated Hemingway fan, but I've read many of his books and they never fail to entertain me. Now that I am also a drinks nerd, I like reading them with a barfly's eye.
Led by Phil Greene, cofounder of the Museum of the American Cocktail and Hemingway enthusiast, we romped through passages from Papa's novels, short stories, and letters, and tasted some of the giant's favorite cocktails.
We began with the Jack Rose, and may I say, this was the finest version I've had of this drink. I suspect the Fee Bros.' grenadine played a role in that, and I should order a bottle when I return home.
Next, was the Green Isaac's Special, a drink that Hemingway himself invented and named after a Caribbean island:
To break from the red drinks, we had a Montgomery martini. If I remember Phil's story correctly, it's named such because British field marshal Montgomery was said to avoid leading his men to battle unless they enjoyed a 15 to 1 advantage. Hemingway mixed his martinis to that ratio, and, thus, the Montgomery Martini:
Next, the Papa Doble Daiquiri; his love of the daiquiri is legendary, so I'll say no more:
Finally, the Death in the Afternoon. This apparently originated in a recipe that Hemingway submitted to a book (So Red the Nose, or Breath in the Afternoon) collecting the tipples of famous writers and actors. A fine drink:
*N.B.: Bols played no part in this. Don't blame them for the pun.

Yesterday was a raw, choppy one where the clouds started thin and slowly worked their way into an impenetrable ceiling. Our float rocked all day long while A2 and I did our best to get ahead for the week. Culling wasn't a problem – it was keeping warm. But we had the heater on and for an hour or so, passed time singing Bob Marley tunes a cappella (turns out, A2 has quite the voice). Berg, meanwhile, spent the entire day dragging and pulled up around 40-50 crates. We helped him unload his crates onto the float at least three times and at the end of the day, ended up hauling all of the TBC's (to be culled) back to land and onto the truck. We'll most likely spend today at the shop since waters are sure to be too rough for us to get out there; we're expecting rain and a strong south wind for most of it. Plus, at least one of our boats, the Bat (short for Bateau) is going into the shop today.
We weren't the only ones prepping. As we made our last trip to the float to pick up all of our finished bags, we saw Greg Morris put-putting his way into the marina — the boat was so loaded up, all we could see was an orange wall of crates and two forms covered in yellow and orange shoveling water out of the bottom of the boat.
"The thing about April," Christian told me a few weeks back, "is that you get these gorgeous days, these 65, 70 degree days. And then, you get slammed with cold weather." Clearly he, and T.S. Eliot, know a thing or two about it.

I'm thinking about doing something a little different in the month of April for the designer challenge. I think we should do a "Paper a Day" challenge, where everyday I'll post a theme/color/etc for you to use to develop a paper from scratch. I know everyday is a big commitment, so I won't lock the threads immediately, to allow people to have some time for catch up. Here's what I'd like to know from you:
1. Is this a good idea?
2. Would you prefer to choose your own color palette, so at the end of the month you have a paper pack, or would you like me to choose a color palette so that everyday everyone works towards a paper pack together? I'm leaning towards letting people choose their own colors, since I'd like to focus on setting a theme for the paper (polka dots, stripes, plaid, etc) and having XX number of polka dot papers in the same colors seems a little like overkill...
3. Any ideas for paper themes?
Polka Dots Stripes Plaid Damask Floral Leaves Geometric Stars Real Textures, use a photograph Grunge Painted Multiple Patterns Words Borders Doodles Embossed Hearts
- Paisleys
Glitter Arrows Alphabet or Numbers Scatter, Irregular Pattern
- Solids

What is a whole house filter?
A whole house filter connects to the main water line entering the home -- every faucet, toilet, shower, bath, kitchen, laundry -- dispense filtered water. There are a variety of whole house filters and each one will depend on what you are trying to accomplish. Our manufacturer carries many different types of whole house filters. These filters can remove sediment, dirt, rust particles, chlorine, cysts, VOC's, iron, hydrogen sulfide (Rotten egg), certain heavy metals and a wide range of contaminants responsible for bad taste and odors in residential water supplies.
Are whole house filters and water softeners the same?
NO -- water softeners remove hardness minerals and uses salt whereas whole house water filters remove a broader range of contaminants.
Do customers ever own a water softener and a whole house filter?
Yes -- a lot of our customers do own both. Some water softeners have carbon built in to them and they are referred as water conditioners. The problem with this is that the carbon only last for a period of time and then needs to be replaced which can become costly. This is usually done by a plumber. By separating the carbon from the softener as we do, it becomes more cost effective to maintain even to the point where the customer can change their own filters.
How do I know what size whole house water filter that I need?
That will depend on what you are trying to remove from the water, the amount of contaminants in the water and how many gallons of water you use in a year. One of our most popular whole house filters is our 2.5 x 20 carbon block because of its low cost to maintain. The average filter life for a family of four is one year.

I would absolutely recommend this company!" Ashley Ledbetter
"We had our whole house water softening and purification system installed in March. We have been very pleased with our systems and would recommend Mike and his company to anyone. We had an issue recently and felt it was handled very pleasantly. Mike came out and took care if the situation personally." Diane Roth

Warren and Kennedy sworn in as 113th Congress convenes
WASHINGTON – Elizabeth Warren arrived at the US Capitol on Thursday morning carrying an L.L. Bean backpack in the manner of a student in one of her former classes at Harvard Law School. Inside was a treasured, tattered King James Bible that she had used since third grade and had chosen for her swearing-in as the US Senator from Massachusetts.
"I know people come with big fancy family Bibles,'' Warren said in an interview shortly before her Noon induction into the Senate. "Mine's a little more modest.''
As she sat in the Capitol, the first woman to be elected to the US Senate from Massachusetts mused about the history of the moment.
"This chair, this particular Senate seat, was held by John Quincy Adams, Daniel Webster, [Charles] Sumner — and of course Senator [Edward M.] Kennedy for half a century,'' Warren said. "Men of principle, men who fought hard for the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and for this country.''
"I come into this…knowing I'm not those men,'' she added. "But I'm going to work my heart out.''
As Warren and Representative Joseph Kennedy III on Thursday became the newest elected officials from Massachusetts to walk the marble Capitol hallways, they are ushering in a rapidly transforming Massachusetts delegation.
Two long-time stalwarts – John Olver and Barney Frank, 53 years in Washington between them – are retiring, and former Senator Scott Brown is back in Massachusetts after losing to Warren. Meanwhile, Senator John Kerry is preparing for confirmation hearings to become Secretary of State and Representative Edward J. Markey is planning to run for his seat (possibly against Brown).
"Massachusetts has long had some of the most powerful delegations year in and year out,'' said Jim Manley, a Democratic strategist and former aide to Senator Edward M. Kennedy. "I'm afraid that's something that's going to change.''
The Massachusetts delegation has been a striking scene of continuity. The last time Massachusetts lost two members of Congress at the same time was 1997 – when two Republicans, Peter Blute and Peter Torkildsen, both lost reelection bids.
In addition, from 1962 to 2009, Massachusetts had five US senators. From 2009 to 2013, the state will have had the six (two of them interim).
With Kerry all but gone, Massachusetts would lose the eighth most senior member in the Senate. If Markey wins that seat, the state would lose the ninth most senior member in the House.
Seniority may seem like an honorary item – or, in Washington, something not to covet – but it has a big impact in the ability to navigate the musty ways of Congress.
In a building where seniority matters in setting an agenda and getting heard – and where experience in the musty ways of Congress is pivotal – the state could have relatively junior members steering the way.
Massachusetts has long had outsized political clout for its relatively small delegation, with major players on issues like health care, financial regulation, foreign affairs, and global warming. One reason was the legacy of the late House Speaker Thomas P. "Tip'' O'Neill, who made a point to position Massachusetts lawmakers on key committees in the House. Over time, those members rose to senior roles.
Kennedy, despite his famed name and gold-plated political stock, couldn't get a slot on the House Education Committee.
"I've seen a lot of transition during my career on Capitol Hill — and there's no question we're going to feel the loss of Senator Kerry and of Barney and of John Olver,'' said Representative James McGovern, a Democrat from Worcester who started as a congressional aide to Representative Joe Moakley.
"We're like a family,'' McGovern added. "You're used to seeing these people every day and then all the sudden we won't. On a personal level all of them are going to be missed. In terms of seniority and clout and brain power, that also is going to be missed.''
Warren still doesn't have a house to live in (she's going apartment-hunting on Friday). And she has been told she'll be in a double-wide trailer until an office can be secured for her, sometime by April. The Senate only allocates funding for two staffers to senators-elect, so she'll soon be beefing up a staff she'll be heavily dependent upon.
Because she doesn't have a proper office yet, she sat for an interview in a committee conference room in one of the furthest buildings away from the Senate floor.
Warren declined to say whether she would have voted for the fiscal cliff deal, but she was highly critical of the negotiation struck by Vice President Joe Biden and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.
"I'm just now learning all the details of the deal,'' she said. "Giveaways to big corporations at a time when we're under enormous financial pressure? You know, this whole deal was supposed to be about bringing our house into financial order, not giving more away to some of the biggest corporations in this country.''
"We have a $16 trillion deficit. You need to be serious about dealing with it,'' she added. "Giving away more money to big, profitable corporations and doing it with so little public debate doesn't move us to stronger financial footing.''
Warren also declined to endorse Representative Edward J. Markey, who is planning to run for Kerry's seat. Markey, a Malden Democrat, has been endorsed by Kerry, Vicki Kennedy, and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
"You know, Ed has been a terrific congressman, particularly strong on environmental issues. A real leader,'' Warren said. "He's the one in the race right now, I think he would make a great senator. but we should see what unfolds.''
Meanwhile, Warren is planning to return to figuring out how to navigate the halls of Congress. And she has newfound empathy for the first-year students she taught in law school.
"It is like the first day of school, over and over. It's new beginnings,'' she said. "I feel the weight of history. But also the urgency of the future.''

Author Notes: Alice Medrich, chocolatier and author of scads of baking cookbooks, is famously a little wild with her desserts. She developed this recipe not with the standard bag of sweetened, angel flake coconut in mind, but those wide, sloping unsweetened shavings, often called coconut chips and sold at health food stores nowadays. Naturally, Medrich offers two even more exotic upgrades: 1) Instead of painting a little chocolate shoe on the bottom of each macaroon, why not jam a piece of chocolate in each still-hot cookie and watch it melt? 2) For that matter, why not lace it with lime zest and shower it with cinnamon? Who are we to say that's not a macaroon? Adapted very slightly from Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunchy Melt-in-Your-Mouth Cookies by Alice Medrich (Artisan, 2010) —Genius Recipes
Makes: about 22 cookies
Prep time: 50 min
Cook time: 30 min
4 large egg whites
3 1/2 cups unsweetened dried flaked, not shredded, coconut (also known as coconut chips) or 3 cups sweetened, dried shredded coconut
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract (available kosher for Passover, or can be omitted)
Slightly rounded 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Combine all of the ingredients in a large heatproof mixing bowl, preferably stainless steel because the mixture will heat faster than in glass. Set the bowl directly in a wide skillet of barely simmering water (if your bowl bobs in the water, simply pour some out). Stir the mixture with a silicone spatula, scraping the bottom to prevent burning, until the mixture is very hot to the touch and the egg whites have thickened slightly and turned from translucent to opaque, 5 to 7 minutes. Set the batter aside for 30 minutes to let the coconut absorb more of the goop.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven.
- Using 2 tablespoons of batter, make attractive heaps 2 inches apart on the lined cookie sheets. (You can also make these smaller and bake for less time, in 1-tablespoon heaps.) Bake for about 5 minutes, just until the coconut tips begin to color, rotating the pans from top to bottom and from front to back halfway through the baking time to ensure even baking.
- Lower the temperature to 325 degrees and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the cookies are a beautiful cream and gold with deeper brown edges, again rotating the pans from top to bottom and from front to back halfway through the baking time. If the coconut tips are browning too fast, lower the heat to 300 degrees. Set the pans or just the liners on racks to cool. Let cool completely before gently peeling the parchment away from each cookie.
- The cookies are best on the day they are baked — the exterior is crisp and chewy and the interior soft and moist. Although the crispy edges will soften, the cookies remain delicious stored in an airtight container for 4 to 5 days.
- Upgrade 2.1: Chocolate-Topped Coconut Macaroons. Do this for any version of Coconut Macaroons: While the cookies are still hot, top each with a little piece of your favorite milk or dark chocolate. Or drizzle a little melted chocolate over each cookie.
- Upgrade 2.2: Coconut Macaroons with Lime Zest and Cinnamon. Stir 1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons freshly grated lime zest into the batter before scooping it. Using a fine grater or Microplane zester, grate a little cinnamon stick over the cookies just before serving.
- This recipe is a Community Pick!

Alright, so we got whipped! I had predicted a 1-1 series, and not even in my wildest dreams envisaged a 4-0 whitewash.
To alleviate the pain I was looking for something to read, and stumbled upon the a few tales revolving around Sir Donald Bradman that had been shared by Cricinfo readers during a long rain-break in a long forgotten India-SL match. Somehow I had the foresight to copy all the interesting tales in one location; re-sharing those tales here. Obviously I am not the source, I'm just an accumulator for this post. All credit goes to the millions of readers of Cricinfo.
There is, for instance, the tale of Bill Black, an off-spin bowler playing for Lithgow, who on a memorable day in 1931 bowled Bradman for 52. The umpire was so excited that when the ball hit Bradman's wicket he called out: "Bill, you've got him." The ball was mounted and given to Black as proof that he had dismissed the greatest batsman in the world.
Later that season Don Bradman again played against Black. As the bowler marked out his run, Don said to the wicketkeeper: "What sort of bowler is this fellow?"
The wicketkeeper, a mischief-maker like the rest of his tribe, replied: "Don't you remember this bloke? He bowled you out a few weeks ago and has been boasting about it ever since."
"Is that so?" said Bradman. Two overs later Black pleaded with his skipper to be taken off. Bradman had hit him for 62 runs in two eight-ball overs. He made 100 in three overs and finished with 256, including 14 sixes and 29 fours.
On Bradman's first tour of England in 1930 there was a popular rumour that the English pitches would sort him out. As an ardent subscriber to this theory, George Macauley, the feisty Yorkshire seam bowler, couldn't wait to get at Bradman.
When Yorkshire played the Australians Macauley demanded loudly of his captain: "Let me have a go at this bugger." His first over was a maiden. Bradman then hit him for five fours in the second over and took 16 from the third. A spectator yelled, "George, tha' should have kept thi' bloody trap shut."
Bradman could read a batsman and tell you how to bowl to him, but he did it obliquely, as with Bill Edrich, who tended to play across the line, at Lord's in 1948. Ray Lindwall habitually placed a short leg behind the square leg umpire. When Edrich came in, Bradman asked Lindwall, "Do you want that short leg behind or in front of the umpire?"
"No, leave him there," Lindwall said.
He bowled a couple to Edrich and would have had him caught by the short leg if he had taken Bradman's hint. He asked Bradman if he should move the fielder.
"It's too late now," Bradman said; "he won't play that shot again."
Edrich played against Australia for another five years; Lindwall says he always had him in trouble as a result of Bradman's tip.
Lindwall recalls that the team attended a black tie function while a match was in progress, and that three of the bowlers on duty, himself, Colin McCool and Ern Toshach, were then invited to a party 15 miles out of London. They had to make three separate cab trips to get there; this persuaded them to stay at the party rather than attempt a complicated trip back in the early hours of the morning. When they did get back, still in dinner suits, they went up the hotel stairs in case Bradman was in the lift, but met him doing his exercises. The great man said no more than: 'Have a nice night? You had better do all right today.'
They had a shower and took the field. Bradman bowled the three of them all morning; each took three wickets. Lindwall was on the rubbing table at lunch when Bradman 'smacked me on the behind' and said: 'You were pretty lucky today.'
'Why? We got them all out.'
'If you hadn't I would have liked to see the three of you bowling all afternoon.'
When the Don scored 334 runs in a 1930 Test at Leeds, and a London newspaper finally trumpeted just two grateful words on posters around the city: "HE'S OUT!"
Few tweets from @sidvee
It was told to me by the great Australian batsman, Dean Jones, who positively swore on the head of his daughter it happened, and I have since been told that Merv Hughes also confirms its truth.
The scene is set at a Test match between Australia and the West Indies at Adelaide Oval back in February 1989. These were the days when the Windies were the greatest power the cricketing world had ever seen, the days when they used to select 11 fast bowlers in the team and a 12th man who was a fast bowler just to be on the safe side.
And it was into just such a furnace that the young bowler Mervyn Hughes walked – with bat in hand. Figuring fortune favoured the brave, Hughes wielded the willow like an axeman his axe, and somehow – after snicking fortutiously, connecting full-bloodedly, and missing entirely – he finished the day's play at 72 not out.
The tradition in Test cricket is that the batting side take a few beers into the fielding side's dressing-room afterwards, but not on this evening. Instead, Merv took an ice-box full of bottles, so keen was he to give the men of the Windies the full blow-by-blow account of every run he'd made. So it was that half an hour later, Jones – who himself had contributed 216 – and Hughes and several other Australian players were in the Windies dressing-room, when a sudden hush fell upon the gathering.
They looked to the door and there was Sir Donald Bradman himself, being ushered into the room by several South Australian cricket officials. The Don had expressed a desire to meet this mighty team, and now here he was.
For the next 15 minutes or so, the great man was introduced to the visiting players, with each West Indian standing up well before Sir Donald got to their position on the bench. Then, when their time came, they warmly shook his hand and had a few words.
This all proceeded splendidly until Sir Donald got to the last man on the bench, Patrick Patterson – the fastest bowler in the world at that time. So the story goes, not only did Patterson not stand, he simply squinted quizzically up at the octogenarian. Finally, after some 30 seconds of awkward silence, Patterson stood up, all two metres of pure whip-cord steel of him, and looked down at the diminutive Don.
"You, Don Bradman!?!" he snorted. "You, Don Bradman?!?! I kill you, mun! I bowl at you, I kill you! I split you in two!"
In reply, Sir Donald, with his hands on his hips, gazed squarely back at Patterson and calmly retorted: "You couldn't even get Merv Hughes out. You'd have no chance against me, mate!"

Galerie m Bochum is pleased to present from February 20 to April 22, 2015, drawings from the series uaul selvadi by the Swiss artist
Evelina Cajacob
. The artist has specially designed the color scheme for the exhibition space in which the delicate works on paper are on view.
The drawings from the series uaul selvadi show a delicate pattern of branches, leaves and tree trunks. This vegetation is viewed from underneath, the view directed upwards towards the sky. Seen up close, the pictures reveal short individual strokes casting a filigree network over the leaves. From a distance, these fine lines then converge to form an astonishingly sculptural and detailed view of nature.
The light gray of the drawings is interrupted by white spaces and circles – areas the artist omitted in the drawing process. Plasticity and emptiness are thus juxtaposed here in a tension-charged contrast between the painstakingly executed areas of the drawing and the blank areas. What at first seems like a true-to-nature representation inevitably takes a turn toward the dreamlike and unreal.
The drawings are the result of a long process of development. The artist used as her models photographs she took in the woods more or less at random in 2013. When she came across them again later, they sparked what would turn out to be an intensive re-examination. At first Cajacob experimented with editing the images on the computer, deleting sections and changing the colors. In parallel, she kept making sketches from the photographs. In the works in her series uaul selvadi, which means "primeval forest" in the Rhaetian language, Evelina Cajacob is preoccupied mainly with processes of generation, movement and decay.

The power dam area of Mill Creek Canyon is getting some upgrades that a Bureau of Land Management representative and others believe will help preserve and maintain the landscape.
Members of the Mill Creek Partnership joined with several local agencies and other groups Tuesday, Oct. 30, to begin placing signage and doing other enhancement projects in the area.
Target areas for improvements include the unpaved section of Powerhouse Lane, the canyon parking area, the trails to the Left-Hand Canyon waterfall and multiple rehabilitation sites, said Sara Melnicoff of the partnership.
"No Parking signs were placed on the creek side of the road, and a ban on vehicles over 22 feet and vehicles with trailers will take effect when signs are installed [in November]," she said.
The partnership wants to clear the trail to the popular Left-Hand waterfall and add signage. Having trail signs will prevent multiple trails from being created in the area because people aren't sure where to go, Melnicoff said.
"We hope the community will appreciate the need for minimal signing," she said in a news release.
Miles Gurtler, a Bureau of Land Management park ranger, said the area worked this week was between the power dam and the first waterfall. Four trail signs were installed.
"All of this is to protect the canyon," he said. "It's not the locals [doing damage]. The word is out on the waterfalls. It's definitely out in the bigger world."
Work has been concentrated on BLM land, which accounts for most of the area. There also is some land in Mill Creek that is owned by Grand County, Gurtler said.
The area has grown increasingly popular, he noted, with information about Mill Creek and the waterfalls available on the Internet. Gurtler said signs in the area have been vandalized in the past.
Buses and large vehicles, especially those with trailers, are being banned from the parking lot because they have been entering the overcrowded parking area and could not turn around. As a result, the vehicles had to be backed down the road and often met other vehicles coming up the road, creating a hazardous situation, he said.
In addition to help from the BLM, the partnership is joining forces with the Grand County Sheriff's Office, city of Moab, Moab Solutions, the Grand Water and Sewer Service Agency and Grand County Search and Rescue to improve conditions.
Monthly work parties are held for a variety of projects, including removing invasive plants, broken glass and other debris.
"It's a great place to spend time," Melnicoff said, adding that volunteers logged 275 hours between Oct. 1, 2011 and Sept. 30.
"We caged cottonwood trees, pulled weeds, removed thousands of bits of broken glass, cleaned up litter, and worked to keep trails clear," she said.
The partnership formed in the late 1990s to address several issues endangering the health of the canyon, according to the news release. More information about the effort is available online at www.millcreekpartnership.net.

Thrifty Thursday - FamilySearch Research classes online
I know, I know, I am so behind the times! But I just came across the free online classes at the Family Search website. The classes range from research tips to lessons on conducting research on foreign-born ancestors. I am currently watching "If I'd Only Known," presented by Beth Foulk. She has given some great tips to help beginning genealogists avoid simple mistakes. The courses are easy to navigate and many provide PDF downloads of companion course materials. Classes are presented either as straight videos of a presenter or as a presenter next to a PowerPoint presentation. When a presenter is paired with a PowerPoint you are able to click through the presentation to slides that interest you and the presenter fast forwards to the same location. What a great resource!

This is unlike the land based gaming dens where one needs money to play. Online casino games are convenient for the gambler because he/she does not have to necessarily plan their playing time as they can easily play for fun or for money in their homes.

16-year-old father charged with suffocating baby son
Allegheny County police say De-Jon Johnson has been arrested on an adult charge of criminal homicide
Allegheny County police say De-Jon Johnson has been arrested on an adult charge of criminal homicide
Allegheny County police say De-Jon Johnson has been arrested on an adult charge of criminal homicide
A 16-year-old boy accused of killing his infant son during an overnight visit has been arrested and charged as an adult with criminal homicide, Allegheny County detectives said Wednesday.
De-Jon Johnson is suspected of smothering his 4-month-old son, Isaiah Brooks-Leonard, who was spending the night with Johnson and the teen's mother at their home on Banker Street in McKeesport, police said.
On his way to jail Wednesday, Pittsburgh's Action News 4 questioned Johnson about what happened. He used derogatory words for people with mental challenges because he said the crew was filming "a little boy."
"You're lucky I'm in cuffs," Johnson said.
In a criminal complaint, police said baby Isaiah was in cardiac arrest, with "an abrasion and contusion to his right cheekbone, red discharge around his nose, and contusions on his right hip and finger marks on his ankles," when he arrived by ambulance at UPMC McKeesport early on the morning of Feb. 6.
The infant's lip frenulum -- a fold of skin that attaches the gum to the upper lip -- was torn, police said.
The medical examiner ruled that the cause of death was suffocation and the manner was homicide.
Johnson and his mother confirmed during a police interview that the baby was found unresponsive while at the house, according to the complaint.
Both Johnson and his mother confirmed that the baby's face had no marks when the infant was picked up from his mother's home for their visit, police said.
According to Johnson's mother, Isaiah was "in the exclusive care" of Johnson from the time that the father went to bed with the baby at about 10:40 p.m. until the infant was found unresponsive after 3 a.m., police said in the complaint.
"At this point in the interview, it was explained that if the child did not have the injuries when (Johnson's mother) gave (the baby) to Johnson, the only explanation was that the injuries were caused by Johnson," police said in the complaint.
Johnson's defense attorney Blaine Jones said his client is an honor roll student in high school who recently started working to financially support his child.
"Bottom line is the police report is their side of the story," said Jones. "We have a side of the story to tell and once we're ready, we're tell our side in court."

Saffo defends film incentives
Last week, Molly Parker, our Raleigh bureau chief, reported that Wilmington Mayor Bill Saffo was "fighting mad" about a memo sent to some state legislators that said the film industry's tax incentives led to fewer than six dozen jobs. By Tuesday's council meeting, Saffo hadn't yet cooled off. He read an entire resolution into the record to support the film industry. The resolution said the current tax structure encourages film production in North Carolina. Saffo acknowledged that the film tax… Read More »

In these harder bread-and-butter times, there are two affidavit that bargain sites accept become popular. These sites acquiesce you to both buy things at a cheaper bulk than you can get in a abundance and to acquaint things that you own to add a bit to your income. There are a few things you allegation to apperceive afore you accept what bargain website to use, though.
Membership Sites and Payment Guarantees
About bisected the sites that action bargain articles crave that you annals and pay a associates fee. Sites that do this allegation lower advertisement fees to the sellers. While this sounds like an candid administration of costs, it is accepted that a lot of humans who buy a artefact at one of these sites use the website alone two or three times during a year. Some of the memberships are absolutely costly.
Many sites that accommodate behest casework for articles crave that the being authoritative the bid abode a defined minimum bulk of banknote in an annual with the site. This is to agreement that the being behest has the money to pay for the annual and any added costs assigned to the buyer. On the surface, this appears to be a fair appeal abnormally if you are the seller.
However, the bulk deposited is generally appreciably added than the bulk you are accommodating to pay for an annual and the website is not appropriate to acknowledgment the bare bulk in your account. On some sites, this bare antithesis becomes acreage of the website afterwards a aeon of time defined in a contract, which can be as abbreviate as 3 months.
If you adjudge to acquaint an annual on a site, be abiding to accept absolutely all the fees that you will be charged. For example, one website accuse a advertisement fee for a assertive amount of days. Then, they add added fees for relisting, for allowance that you will acquaint the artefact at the assets bulk and a allotment of the bulk that you do acquaint the annual at. In the end, you could end up with beneath than bisected of the money that you expected. Some sites crave that you pay any taxes that are to be paid and any shipment accuse from your own pocket.
Services Offered by Sites
Auctioning sites can be actual assisting and accurate as continued as you are assured that the website has casework for any glitches or abrupt events. When bargain sites acquaint that they accept chump service, it is appropriate that you attack to acquaintance that administration above-mentioned to advertisement any items on the site. Generally there are chump account assembly but they cannot or do not acquaintance their audience or barter in a appropriate manner. When you are behest or affairs on their site, timing is everything.
For example, if your annual doesn't appearance up or it goes down beforehand than the advertisement period, you will allegation to acquaintance chump account anon or cost any affirmation to agreement of chargeless relisting services.

It was a fairly intimate crowd that showed up at Camden Yards on Thursday night for the Orioles' series opener against the Chicago White Sox, which should have come as a surprise to no one who has any interest in either of Baltimore's two major professional sports teams.
The hardcore Orioles fans showed up to watch a game that could have playoff implications and many others came for the free plaid cap giveaway with the intention of staying until it was time to head home or to a local watering hole to watch the telecast of the Ravens' opener against the Denver Broncos at Sports Authority Field.
With an announced attendance of 17,383, the ballpark was far from empty when the game started, but it was a somewhat ambivalent gathering that watched Adam Jones hit his 30th home run in the first inning and many kept their smartphones handy for early Ravens updates.
Andrew Arconti of Middle River, sipping an adult beverage in his No. 5 Joe Flacco jersey, spoke for all the fans with divided allegiance.
"I'm a season-ticket holder, and if the Orioles are up big or down big, maybe I'll duck out and try to catch the second half in one of the local bars here," he said.
There was also the third option — the free Keith Urban concert that the NFL staged at the Inner Harbor to compensate for the scheduling snafu that cost the Ravens the traditional Thursday night NFL home opener afforded to the defending Super Bowl champion.
This is all old news, of course, but the controversy that erupted in March after the NFL tried to persuade the Orioles to reschedule Thursday night's game to accommodate the Ravens was still on the minds of plenty of the fans who showed up for baseball — some wearing regalia from both local teams.
"I think it's horrible,'' Aconti said. "I really think the NFL dropped the ball. I don't blame the Orioles — for the first time — and I don't blame Peter Angelos. I think they're trying to cram too much with the Keith Urban concert. I think they should have put it on an actual home game day and put it in the neck [between the two stadiums] or something, but they're spreading the events around to thin."
Jonathan Willis of Cockeysville showed up in a loud Ravens aloha shirt and an Orioles cap, carrying a box of Bowie Baysox bobblehead dolls. He must have lost a bet or something, but he wasn't too upset about the Ravens having to open the season on the road.
"It doesn't really matter,'' he said. "They're making a big deal about it. They're going to play eight here and eight on the road. It would have been nice to have the game here just because we could all celebrate, but they'll celebrate the first home game here next week."
That's the thing that a lot of unhappy fans don't seem to understand. The NFL's decision to move the opener to Denver didn't cost Baltimore all that much in terms of festivity or economic activity. The city was full of merrymakers on Thursday night, and the Ravens still have eight home games left. If the NFL had succeeded in shaming the Orioles into scheduling a doubleheader this weekend, it actually would have cost the downtown a day or night's worth of sports revenue, considering the Orioles would have lost Thursday's home date and the Ravens would have used up a home date.
Orioles manager Buck Showalter wasn't worried about the impact that the scheduling conflict might have on Thursday night's crowd, and he certainly had no desire to stoke the controversy that grew out of it.
"We're just trying to get to their level consistently like [the Ravens have] been consistent. That's what we want to be,'' Showalter said. "To critique the fans or our fellow Baltimoreans on what they consider worthy of their time on a given night, I'm not going to critique that. I'm just excited that anybody decides to come here."

A winner was selected from 25 designs submitted by 7 freelance designers.
I need the following redesigned -
This is an example page. I am not looking for any "Thomas" branded components, but a general redesign that can be applied to all product pages.
The content and general layout can remain, but the banner, colour scheme and call to action buttons are pretty terrible at the moment.Please avoid specific character brands as the new design will be applied to the whole site.A good example of these sites are
Please note the Amazon links on right will be removed.
- New banner - something like the two previously mentioned would be fine
- No specific character branding, unless part of site-wide logo.
- Call to action buttons - Buy Now and More Details (or Learn More)

- This is a UK based site

Product Highlights
Fits: 95mm Filter Threads
95mm Filter Threads
The Heliopan 95mm Screw-in Rubber Lens Hood is designed to prevent unwanted stray light from entering a lens by extending and shading its front end. This prevents lens flare and improves image contrast. In addition, since the end of a lens is extended when using a hood, you also get the benefit of extra protection from accidental impact to that lens's front element.
This lens hood is constructed with a rubber compound that is UV and temperature resistant, and the rubber material can be rolled back for storage or to convert the hood for use with wide-angle lenses. By rolling back the lens hood, its opening can be made to correspond with a wide-angle lens's angle of view so that vignetting is avoided.
A metal mounting ring connects the hood to a lens with 95mm filter threads and a 0.75mm thread pitch. The mounting ring also features corresponding 95mm front filter threads which can be used to accommodate filters, lens caps, or other threaded accessories.

This is the archive page for the 2010 event, please go to the current year page here: https://interventioncon.com/vendors/vendor-room/
Artist Alley Listing of Participants Now Available
Please visit our Artist Alley Participant page to view the first group of confirmed Artist Alley vendors.
The Artist Alley Will be open:
Friday: 4pm to 8pm
Saturday: 10am to 8pm
Sunday: 10am to 2pm
Information for Artist Alley Participants: Please read carefully all of the FAQ entries and Terms and Conditions on this page–your submission is your acknowledgment that you accept them.
Artist Alley Tables are $50. You must also purchase a con membership, which is $35. Total cost $85.00.
Intervention Artist Alley Benefits:
We offer benefits that no other con offers its artists. Here is a list of everything you will receive when you purchase your table:
- A 6 ft. X 30in. table:
- Setup time: Nothing is more annoying than setting up your table when customers are milling about. We are allowing for you to set up behind closed doors before the customers enter the room.
- A locked place to store your wares overnight: There is no reason you should be hauling boxes back and forth. We want you to have fun while you are here. The AA will have defined opening and closing times so that you can leave your stuff behind overnight.
- Free promotion for your work: Your name, a link to your website or store, a thumbnail of your artwork (if provided to us), and a short description of your wares will be listed in an easy to read way on the Intervention website. If they miss you at the con, they can look you up here after the con. We want to advertise how awesome you are. This is how we do things here.
- An extra spotlight: If you are seen online promoting Intervention with clickable links to our site we will be featuring you on the main Intervention blog as a Fierce Artist. We can often see you linking to us, but feel free to email us and tell us about it to ensure that we see you and can give you the props you deserve…and more eyes on your work.
- An unhurried registration atmosphere: We are not going to force you to camp out to get your registration in. This is a curated AA, so everyone has a chance – not just the people who stayed up to midnight and clicked really fast.
- Your own registration desk: There is no reason you should wait in the attendee registration line. You will be able to pick your con badge and AA badge up at the same time in your own area.
Artists' Alley FAQ:
Q: How do I register for a table?
A: Registration is now open. Please review the terms of service on this page below and use the application form to submit your table request. NOTE: This is not land-grab. We will be curating this Artist's Alley so that there is a diverse mixture of artists. This will not be a race to see who clicks the fastest.
Q: Hey, I'm a new artist. Do I even have a chance of getting into this thing?
A: Of course! We are not screening new artists out. You folks are part of what makes this scene so great. We want to ensure that there is a diverse range of products and that the AA is not limited to who stayed awake in front of their computer clicking the mouse.
Q: How big are the artist tables?
A:They will be 6 ft tables. You also get 2 chairs.
Q: How much do tables cost?
Q: How many tables can I buy?
A: 1 per person. If you are a group of creators and want to coordinate your table purchases we will accommodate that through the application process.
Q: Does the table price include convention registration?
A: No, convention registration must be purchased separately from the AA table. You cannot just pay for a table by itself and get into the con. You may buy up to 2 registrations with your table at our $35 con rate at the time of table payment.
Q: Can I sit next to my friends?
A: We will try our best to accommodate seating requests, but this must be articulated to us when you apply for the AA. We cannot move tables around the day of the con.
Artist Alley Terms and Conditions
The following are the Terms and Conditions for submitting for, and purchasing a table, in the Artist Alley at Intervention 2010.
1) We're doing something different with the Artist Alley at Intervention. As opposed to a "land grab" where the fastest clicker gets a table, we will be taking applications and reviewing each one to see how your presence can add to the overall experience of the con. We aren't basing our decision solely on your "skill level", but on what you as a presence can do to bring exciting items and services to our con attendees, so both newbies and veterans are encouraged to apply.
2) On the application is a section where you tell us what you will be selling or doing at the con at your table. Honestly, this is to prevent some scammers from getting tables at the con. What we'd like is a general overview of what you will be bringing (so telling us you sell t-shirts with your own designs, or you do portraits of people in their costumes, or you sell jewelery are things we want to know). Also, we expect to see a link to your store site or where you advertise your wares online. We'll be up front here–if all you do is copy other people's artwork you won't get a table–and if you try to snow job us and show up with a ton of knock off prints you won't get a spot. We aren't against fan art, but if you aren't really doing anything special there's a good shot you won't get in, so don't waste our time or yours.
3) Your Artist Alley table purchase gives you one (1) 6 foot table and 2 chairs. Due to space constraints we are unable to sell more than one table per entity.
4) You may NOT subdivide a table without submitting information on this application for ALL members of the table in terms of sales items or services. So, in other words, you can, as a collective, buy a table, but your listing of items and services has to outline all members of the collective.
5) Your table purchase does not include registration as part of the $50 table cost. Cost for Artist registration is $35 per person, with a maximum of two (2) total registrations purchasable as part of this application. You can of course buy additional badges through the regular site registration system.
6) As part of your registration Intervention will, if you wish, place your name (or company name) along with a clickable HTML link to your site, on the main Intervention website as part of the listing of Artist Alley participants. You will also be listed, again if you wish, within the con book.
7) Artist Alley vendors may not engage in music, speech, or other endeavors which disrupt the general peace of the Artist Alley location. In other words, no shouting, blasting of music, or other disruptive actions. You also may not "poach" customers from other tables by attempting to get their attention in an aggressive manner. Let's all play fair. Breaking of this rule will get you one warning. Further disruptions will result in removal from the Artist Alley permanently with no refund given.
8) Intervention may use audio and/or video recording devices to record The Artist Alley for promotional or commercial use. By applying to be a part of the Artist Alley you agree to allow Intervention to use your likeness and any recorded footage/audio of your actions in the Artist Alley now and in perpetuity for any promotional, commerce, archival, or educational uses.
9) You may not take or appropriate chairs or other resources of other Artist Alley participants without gaining clearance from the Artist Alley coordinator. You may also not have regular attendees of Intervention behind your table without first gaining clearance from the Artist Alley coordinator. In other words, don't grab other things from other tables, and you can't have a ton of people behind your table who aren't a part of your defined group. We're flexible though, so if you talk to the Artist Alley coordinator first we'll allow someone to watch your table for you if that's what you need–note though we can also provide Loss Prevention representatives to help with this issue.
10) We are not copyright cops and take no responsibility for your items. You are responsible for any and all legal issues that arise out of your items for sale. We will follow all laws of the U.S.A. and Maryland though, so please make sure you are aware of those laws.
11) Adult items and images of a sexual nature should be displayed in a manner that minimizes their exposure to minors. Images and items should be placed in books, boxes, or under protective cover with clear labeling that announces their 18+ content. Failure to properly keep minors away from 18+ items will get you a warning, with a second offense potentially leading to your removal from the Artist Alley with no refund. In other words, let's not be stupid and try to sell things to kids that they shouldn't see or buy.
12) Electricity. By default you will not have access to electrical outlets. If you absolutely need one please let us know and we can contact the Hilton for a price quote on setting this up. This is entirely up to them and their pricing. You would have to make a contract with them for these services (but we can assist with setting this up).
13) Illegal items. You may not sell any items that are illegal or regulated in the U.S.A and Maryland. This includes (but not limited to): Firearms, Tobacco, Alcohol, Prescription drugs, Illegal drugs, etc. Also, you can't sell food or candy, the hotel prohibits those items from being sold.
14) Refunds: Refunds for table and registration purchases will be paid back in full if we receive a cancellation request anytime before 3 days before the con ( by September 7th 2010). After that point no refunds will be provided.
15) To take possession of your table at the con you need to bring official government issued identification. Please note that you must be 18 years or older, or have a parent or guardian in attendance to sign for you if you are under that age–this is also true for submitting your application in the first place–contract law requires adult acceptance of all of these terms and conditions.
16) All displays must be free standing and can't encroach into attendee walk path areas or other vendor space. You also can't attach things to the walls or mess up the floors. Leave the hammer and nails at home.
17) If we missed something we may add new terms and conditions at a later time (sorta doubtful though)–but if we do you will be informed of this and can choose to retract your application for a full refund if you disagree with the revision or change.
Artist Alley Submission Form
Please fill out all parts of the form that are marked "required". Please note you need to check the "accept terms and conditions" box AND uncheck the other box to submit the form. (the second box is an anti-spam measure)
Please note that the Artist Alley is currently full. By applying you are adding yourself to the wait list.

You rarely get days when there is no wind in the mountains and even if you get them it can change very quickly and each valley is different. I was on my way to the Watkins path but on that day I never made it there because there was just no wind and all the lake were perfect mirrors. Even though I did not make it there that early because it as mid December the light was still beautiful and the mountains around created nice shadows.
