Hickman, KY 42050
Mobile Weather for WAP 2.0 Mobile Phones Support
Below are answers to some common questions about the WeatherBug Mobile Weather for WAP 2.0 Mobile Phones. If you do not see your question here, please fill out a Support Request Form or visit the WeatherBug Forums.
- Which mobile phone companies support the WeatherBug Mobile WAP 2.0?
WeatherBug's Mobile Weather for WAP 2.0 service is currently available for Verizon and Nextel customers. Check back in the coming weeks as we add more carriers to this list.
- Which Verizon Wireless phones support WeatherBug Mobile Web 2.0?
Currently, WeatherBug Mobile Weather is available to Mobile Web 2.0 subscribers on the following phones:
- Motorola T720
- Samsung A650
New phones are added all the time, so check this page, your local Verizon dealer or www.verizonwireless.com for more information.
- Which Nextel phones support WeatherBug Mobile Weather?
Currently, WeatherBug Mobile Weather is available to Mobile Web 2.0 subscribers on the following phones:
- Motorola i850
- Motorola i860
- Motorola i605
- How do I save my current location/tracking station?
Once you have entered your location, your settings are saved to your phone and you will be brought to the "Home" screen upon return. To change your location at any time, choose #6 - New Location.
- How many locations does WeatherBug provide weather information for?
WeatherBug has tracking stations in every state across the county. This private network of over 8,000 stations is in addition to the national weather service stations (over 1,000) that all other weather companies have access to.
This means a combined total of over 9,000 stations across the county - the world's largest weather network! Well over 40,000 individual locations are covered.
- How will I know if there is a Severe Weather Alert for my area?
Once you have set your location, the home screen will display a red bar titled "Alert" under the temperature. Clicking on this bar will load the active alerts to your phone for viewing.
Because the WAP technology requires you to start your browser and view the WeatherBug content, alerts can not be sent automatically. However, WeatherBug does offer Mobile Alerts — an alert service that notifies you directly via text messages sent to your mobile phone when severe weather strikes anytime, anywhere. Subscribe here.
- Does WeatherBug offer looping radar?
At this time, the WeatherBug Mobile Weather for WAP 2.0 mobile phones does not offer looping radar. However, check back for enhancements and new premium content.
- I selected a station in my area, but the camera seems to be a few miles away. Why is this?
WeatherBug's network is over 8,000 tracking stations with over 1,000 cameras. Since every station does not have a camera, we automatically connect you to the next closest camera. Our camera network is growing every day, so check back for updated views.
- How often are WeatherBug's current weather conditions updated?
WeatherBug uses the power of the Internet to connect directly to the over 8,000 automated weather tracking stations and 1,000+ weather cameras that make up the WeatherBug Network. Most of the sites in the WeatherBug Network are connected to a direct Internet connection so that local weather data is always reported live.
Some weather tracking stations are not yet connected to the Internet, but are linked to WeatherBug via a standard phone line/modem setup and polled at least once per hour. In both cases, WeatherBug repackages the data and sends it live out over the Internet to your phone.
- I compared your data and conditions to another weather offering and your readings are different. Why is this?
Only WeatherBug uses live, truly local data. Unlike all other weather providers who rely upon hour-old airport data we insure you are seeing the most up-to-date information.
Other providers may list the results as from your ZIP Code or town, but in many instances the results are actually from the nearest airport, which may be 50 miles away or more.
In many parts of the country, the difference in conditions can vary widely due to terrain, storms, ocean heating, etc. We believe receiving data from your neighborhood station is the best possible data.
- What does WeatherBug Mobile Web 2.0 mobile phones cost?
WeatherBug Mobile Weather for WAP 2.0 mobile phones is part of a complete package offered to Mobile Web 2.0 subscribers without additional charge.
- How do I submit photos to WeatherBug from my phone?
You can submit photos by emailing them to firstname.lastname@example.com. Many camera phones allow photos to be sent directly from the phone. For the best chance for your photo to be approved by our staff, be sure it shows the great weather and scenery that we have across the United States and include your name along with the location the photo was taken. Please allow up to 72 hours to see approved photos on the WeatherBug application.
Users can also view and submit photos directly through the WeatherBug desktop application. To download, visit www.weatherbug.com.
- I have submitted a photo to WeatherBug. How can I view it?
Approved photos can be viewed in the Your Photos section of the WeatherBug desktop application by selecting the Camera Phone photo album. For the best chance of your photo being approved by our staff, be sure it shows the great weather and scenery found around the world, and include your name along with the location the photo was taken. Please allow up to 72 hours to see approved photos on the WeatherBug desktop application.
To download the WeatherBug desktop application, visit www.weatherbug.com.
- My local station / camera keeps dropping / disappearing. Why?
Station: If your favorite station occasionally drops from WeatherBug or even the list of available stations, it could be that the station you've chosen is a "near real-time" or "nearly live" station. Near real-time or nearly live stations are operated by the National Weather Service and are often found at airports. We bring you these NWS stations in order to maximize the number of stations where you can access weather data.
Real-time stations transmit weather data constantly while near real-time only report periodically. All exclusive WeatherBug stations are real-time. If you are accessing a near real-time site, it will not appear on your station list when it is offline and WeatherBug will default to the next closest station that is online.
With over 8,000 stations in our network, there may be some problems that either cause invalid weather data or no data at all at certain stations on any given day. We have an automated system that sends faxes and emails to our Points of Contact at stations that are down. Unfortunately, we don't always know immediately what the problem is and must wait to hear from our contact to be able to determine the problem and to offer assistance. Stations accessible through WeatherBug are owned and maintained by the school or business at that location. It is rare that a station goes down permanently. We will continue to try to get this station back online.
Camera: Like our network of tracking stations, we strive to keep our over 1,000 weather cameras operating all the time. However, we do experience trouble from time to time with the cameras and need to take them offline while we address the issue. When a camera is offline, you will see the next closest camera in the Live Cameras section of the application. To download the WeatherBug desktop application, visit www.weatherbug.com.
- I have a billing question. Whom do I contact?
All billing inquires should be directed to your mobile phone company's customer support.

I'll probably check the Burlington, MA LEGO store today. I'll report back with results!
That's good to hear. Do you know if the TRU at Salem would have these sets? I'm sure they do, but I want to make sure.
I've yet to go, but from what I'm told Salem has them even before the Nashua store has them. So its a good shot going there, I'm guessing.

TRAINING: A typical day's training changes from day to day depending where I'm at, either American Top Team, Mike's gym, or here in London. But I love doing my standup and jiu-jitsu.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I started eight years ago for a hobby to keep out of trouble and get off the streets, and training for fights just came from it as I got good at it in the gym and my coach put me forward.
What ranks and titles have you held? Cage Rage Lightweight Champion, UCMMA K1 Champion
Do you have any heroes? No one in particular, just anyone who has the passion to make it at what they do.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? EVERYTHING. It's a dream come true.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? No, I left school kind of early
What was your job before you started fighting? Plasterer
Ranks in any martial arts styles: ranked black belt in Prettyboy MMA
Favorite grappling technique: that would be telling :)
Favorite Striking technique: Catching a flush head kick

Washington Park – or Wash Park as the locals call it - could arguably hold the title of the most well-known neighborhood outside of Denver's city center. And rightfully so. The homes are well loved and adorned with gardens, plants, and landscaping. It boasts one of the lowest crime rates in the city, and has easy access to an abundance of outdoor activities. With something to do every day of the week, what is not to love about this scenic community?
Residents living there divide themselves into two official neighborhoods, Wash Park and Wash Park West. Although people who don't live there mostly refer to the area just as Wash Park. The borders of the neighborhoods are Broadway to the west, Cherry Creek to the north, University Boulevard to the east, and I-25 to the south, with Downing Street dividing West Washington Park from East Washington Park.
One of the best attributes of the Wash Park neighborhood is its central setting, just a few dozen blocks from downtown and with easy access to I-25. Nearby is South Pearl Street, home to galleries, wine and cocktail bars, high-end boutiques, and some of Denver's finest restaurants.
Charming retail enclaves such as Bonnie Brae and Old South Gaylord, together with excellent access to Cherry Creek Mall and bustling area commercial centers, have made Wash Park one of the most coveted urban neighborhoods in Denver.
At over 100 years old, Washington Park is the largest Park in the Denver. A haven for cyclists, walkers, and joggers, Washington Park also hosts soccer leagues, volleyball tournaments, tennis clubs, and flag football on its lush playing fields. It also has two lakes and a recently renovated rec center. The recreation center, one of the busiest in the city, offers classes and programs for all ages.
Classic bungalows, Denver Squares, and a colorful array of handsome Victorian-Era homes, including Queen Anne's, surround the park itself, putting every resident between Lincoln Street and University within an easy walk of its ample amenities.
Throughout the year, a seemingly endless series of fitness events, such as the ever-popular Thanksgiving Turkey Trot and the spring Furry Scurry, draw enthusiastic participants from all over the city. Washington Park is truly the heart and soul of this wonderfully scenic and cohesive neighborhood, where all are welcome to experience the urban outdoors at its absolute best.

Some quick Q&As
Yes. Car and motorcycle rental is available all over Thailand. Motorbikes in particular can be hired just about anywhere.
While you are in theory supposed to have a license in practise the rental shop will almost never ask for one. Note that riding a motorbike without a license in Thailand may have implications on the validity of your travel insurance.
You'll be expected to leave at least a copy of your passport as a sort of guarantee that you will return the bike.
The insurance you get with short term motorbike rentals tend to be generally not worth the paper it is written on.

"Those are so cute," I said to the farmer. "What are they?"
I bit into the kumquat, whose exterior is like a delicate orange rind, only sweeter. Then my teeth sunk into the flesh, and the juice squirted into my mouth. POW! a jolt of tartness hit my taste buds, and my salivary glands instantly went into overdrive. Involuntarily, my cheeks sucked-in, my lips puckered, and my eyes squinted. Just writing that sentence (and looking at that picture) made me have a visceral reaction again.
Like everything in else in life, it's all about expectations. Kumquats are deceptive. Their diminutive size and adorable appearance makes them seem harmless, but they sucker-punch you with an intensely tart citrus flavor. It's like expecting the sweetness of a gummy bear but getting the whallop of a Sour Patch Kid (which I happened to love when I was a girl).
Cooking kumquats, however, mellows their acidity, making them a refreshingly tangy, citrusy compliment to seafood and tofu. Though many kumquat recipes are for desserts and jams, they also work well in savory dishes.
Pan Seared Sea Scallops with Kumquats
Makes 2 servings.
Print recipe only here.
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 tsp olive oil
½ cup seeded, thinly sliced kumquats
½ fresh green jalapeno, diced
½ cup orange juice or tangerine juice
1 tsp lime juice
1 tsp honey
6-8 sea scallops
2 tsp butter
1 tsp olive oil
1-2 tsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Combine juice, kumquats, shallot, lime juice, jalapeno, and honey in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes or until slightly thickened.
Pat scallops dry with a paper towel before cooking to produce less splatter and to sear more effectively. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-heat high, add 2 tsp butter and 1 tsp olive oil. Once melted and bubbly, add the scallops; cook for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden and browned and just opaque in the center.
Arrange rice on plates; add 3-4 scallops, and top with kumquat sauce. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and pistachios.

According to the Columbus Dispatch link above, a handful of other universities have had cereal promoting their schools, but none on the statewide scale of OSU's promotion.
Gee, there's a shocker.
Next up, we shit you not, the school hopes to license -- still not joking here -- Brutus Buckeye milk.
Look, we get it. You love your team. But for crying out loud, where does it end?
Well, funny you should ask. Because we here at the MZone have come up with some other officially licensed Ohio State food products...
Thirsty? Well, nothing quenches a hot summer thirst in Columbus like an ice cold glass of...
And if it's good nutrition and a desire to help Junior learn how to spell you seek, Campbell's has teamed up with Ohio State to bring you THE Alphabet Soup! Comes with the only letters a Buckeye fan needs: A, C, F, G, H, I, K, M, N and U.
Mmm Mmm Good? No -- Mmm Mmm Fucking Good!
In the snack aisle, this next item is a no brainer to have a Tosu tie-in. In fact, from its name and the various scandals in Columbus, I'm sure many folks assumed it already was a Buckeye branded item. Of course we're talking about...
Finally, after filling yourself up with the treats above and drinking 32 oz. of beer in 5 seconds, nothing feels better for the Buckeye fan than taking a nice healthy shit. That's why Ohio State and Charmin have teamed up to bring you "Ohio State Degree Toilet Paper."
Whether you're taking that Brutus sized dump at the bonfire after the game on High Street, in the empty cooler next to the Michigan car you torched or just kicking back in your mobile home, there's nothing like wiping your ass with a Buckeye degree (graduate and doctorate degrees also available).
Thanks to the many, many readers who sent us this tip!

The Fabulous "fa.b."
Dede Dextrousdesign Won The Prestigious Silver a' Design Award For Their Fa.b. Fabric Bookcase, An Eco-focused, Sustainable Book Storage System With Minimal Environmental Impact
The "Fa.B." is a fabric bookcase and a fabulous new way to store, arrange and protect your books and magazines. It is suitable for your home and office and it can be used as a bookcase and a room divider at the same time. Outside the rationale of any shelving system, "Fa.B." offers the user renewable storage space. A single or more modular fabric units can be added to the wooden stand in a few minutes. In this way, every time your storage needs increase you don't have to purchase more shelves or even a new bookcase. The durable fabric along with the wide open wooden sides of "Fa.B." gives us the opportunity to use as little raw materials and natural resources as possible, according to the "dematerialization" approach that our times require.For the last two months of 2011, we pursuited our inspiration by designing an alternative book storage arrangement. The "Fa.B." contributes to achieving a "greener" environment, by concept, design, production and usage. "Fa.B." is made of birch plywood. Birch wood- a tree native to Europe- when harvested from sustainably managed forests poses lower environmental and biodiversity risks than those from tropical and subtropical trees.The fabric units are made a recyclable, resilient, stain resistant, wrinkle-free fabric. It is derived from 100% annually renewable resources such as field corn already grown for many industrial & functional end-uses. The castors allow you to move your fully loaded "Fa.B." around the room effortlessly– as opposed to the traditional bookcase. They are made of steel and rubber. Steel is a 100% recyclable metal and rubber can be turned into rubber mulch which is used to make playgrounds safer for kids. The "Fa.B." is a foldable – literally!- and easy to assemble flat-pack furniture. Self-assembly helps to reduce volume and thus carbon dioxide's emissions, during transportation. We are DEDE DextrousDesign, an Athens based industrial design team, that consists of Aliki Rovithi and Foant Asour. We believe that "design" derives from the fundamental understanding of why something exists. Exploring unconventional alternatives and avoiding familiar solutions leads to novel ideas. Creative thinking is a captivating human aspect. When we design, we try to look at things critically and profoundly, in order to perceive situations from innovative perspectives. We often approach design through humor. Although humor is culturally-specific, the essence of humor addresses to the conceptual framework of many diverse user communities. Using intuitively understood humor as a starting point for the designing of our products, we build strong bonds between the product and its context of use. Humor is deeply planted into our language and thought thus we use it in order to conceive abstract concepts. In this way humor consists a powerful designing tool for the creation of products. Although as designers, we have an artistic background as well, we work in a commercial environment that bears a great deal of considerations on the design process. This is why we strongly believe that ecologically friendly practices should be incorporated in every aspect of design. There mustn't be a segregation between "design" and "sustainable design", as it is self- evident that any design process should comply with the principles of economic, social, and ecological sustainability.We have been working together since 2007 and have participated in "DESIGN 2009","DESIGN LAB 2010", "GREEN DESIGN FESTIVAL 2010", "GREEK DESIGN 2011%", "SMLXL HELLENIC DESIGN" and "DESIGN 2011", design exhibitions in Athens. From the 14th to the 19th of April 2010 we participated in the international fair for young designers SALONESATELLITE 2010, in Milan. We received the RED DOT award:design concept 2010 for the THIS SIDE UP table. Our humanitarian aid packaging THE HAP PROJECT was nominated for the INDEX: Award 2011. INDEX: Award is looking for designs that target and solve the challenges and problems of human life. From 23 to 27 of April 2011 our work was presented at the DESIGN SHOW of the 109th CANTON FAIR, in Canton, China.Our design item GET THE HANG OF IT bag won the Platinum A' Design award 2010-2011, while our WEDDING STOOL and our 1000cc CERAMIC CARAFE received the runner-up status achievement 2010-2011. Aliki Rovithi was born in Athens, Greece. She received a university degree in mathematics from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece and a BA (Hons) in industrial and product design from the Middlesex University(Athens branch). Foant Asour was born in Athens, Greece. He attended the arabic high school in Athens and received a higher diploma in industrial and product design from the Middlesex University (Athens branch).

Jolt Awards: Coding Tools, February 06, 2013 The best IDEs and coding tools of the past year
Productivity Award: Microsoft Visual Studio 2012
From the long-ago moment that Microsoft made the innovative leap to merge the coding environment of many different languages (C++, Visual Basic, HTML, SQL, etc.) into a single IDE, I knew this was going to be a game changer in the software industry. Nearly 15 years later, this melding of technologies into a unified experience still works effortlessly. While there have been some creative diversions along the way (here's looking at you, Silverlight), these necessary steps helped push the product into the future and paved the way for technologies at the heart of Windows 8.
Besides being the developer embodiment for Windows' technology strategy, Visual Studio has grown up with the software industry to extend into sophisticated software design and collaboration, lifecycle, and change management systems. The 2012 edition shows off all these and other key coding attributes with polished maturity. The all-important look and feel of the IDE has adopted the new Windows 8 flat, hard-edged graphic appearance that makes it much more crisp and neat compared with earlier releases, such as Visual Studio 2008, which seemed to look a bit too mushy and spongy in my eyes. The 2012 release imbues this design aesthetic into the new Windows 8 and WinRT applications it helps create all the traditional UI controls that developers have worked with for years now look brand new. Yet even with these changes in its outward appearance, VS2012 still retains its efficient workflow, giving you everything you need within a few mouse clicks or keyboard accelerators without ever getting in your way. Even though my fellow judges did not come to the same conclusion, I believe Visual Studio IDE is the best software development environment in the world, and VS2012 has further solidified this conviction.

Hexagonal columns, a wishing chair and a giant's foot? There's magic at the Giants Causeway. Or should that be science?
The Giant's Causeway – science or myth? Well, you'll get different stories about how these hexagonal basalt beauties came into being. Most likely the locals here will tell you that the Irish giant Fionn mac Cumhaill (Finn McCool) is responsible for this coastal oddity. But then, we love telling tales round this part of the world.
Pop into one of the local pubs and you'll hear a whole lot more about this Unesco World Heritage Site. Keep to the Causeway Coastal Route and you'll be bang in the middle of a bounty of beaches, serious surfing, the crumbling ruins of Dunluce Castle and a perilously high rope bridge called Carrick-a-Rede.
Science or myth? Just magic we reckon.

30 Hour Famine - 2020
I'm going without food for 30 hours to raise money so others can eat —
1 in every 9 people in the world do not have enough to eat.
98% of these people live in developing countries. Some live at the mercy of hunger crises like the one that struck East Africa. Others have been forced from their homes, scraping by with that they can find. Still more find themselves caught in a cylce of poverty and hunger, neither of which they can escape.
But when we come together, there's hope. Hunger has decreased by 20% in the past 25 years, thanks to people like you. It may be retreating to some of the hardest paces, but it's still on the run. So let's keep on chasing.
Just $40 will help feed and care for a child for a month! All you have to do is click one of the orange buttons below to give your gift! Your gift is tax-deductible. WHO ARE YOU GIVING YOUR MONEY TO?

Pine River in 1885 was not very big! According to the Minnesota State Census for 1885 there were 29 total whites with 19 males and 10 females.
6th line down No. 22, Postoffice Brainerd, MN; G. [_] Barclay 45 years, white, born in Maine, parents were not of foreign birth "no". Under G. Barclay was the name Annetta Barclay, age 38, born in Maine, parents not of foreign birth. Written between the above two persons -[Annetta Barclay] age 3, born in Minnesota.
Source: 1885 Minnesota State Census, FHL#565733, #377, pg. 22, Township 136, Cass County.
I find this entry in this state census very frustrating. I have so little on my grandmother Grace's origins. Perhaps Amarilla sounds like "Annetta." The only one that seems to be recognizable is George. The next point is the reference to Maine as their origin? My focus has been on Connecticut for George and his siblings. For Amarilla it has been Iowa. This is the reason that it has been very difficult to figure out where George came from. His age of 45 places the year of birth at 1840 which is four years earlier than I have from other sources.
Some of the other surnames on the page with George are: Woodward, [Kuro or Thuro], Ramport, Fairbanks, Asley, Hunsinger, Dusett, Browne, Morrison, Bannon, Sullivan, and Tallaque/Tallaquais/Gallaquois. (Very hard to read.)
The inhabitants of Pine River in 1885 came from Pennsylvania, Ohio, Minnesota, Maine?, Vermont, Canada, Wisconsin, and Germany.
Many sources state that Amarilla was the only white woman in the Pine River area for years. According to this 1885 census there were other adult women living near her family: Sarah Woodman was 34 and white, Ethel Kuro [50] and white, Matilda Ashley 23 and white, Amanda Tallaqua [37] and white, the rest of the women were young girls.
Note: Ancestry.com, The Minnesota Historical Society in St. Paul and the Family History Library all have the Minnesota Territorial and State Census.

BOSTON -- The House on Wednesday approved legislation raising the minimum wage to $11 over three years and authorizing a 31 percent increase in the hourly wage for tipped workers in Massachusetts.
The vote was 124-24, and comes after the proposal cleared the Senate last week 35-4. Gov. Deval Patrick, who will receive the bill after additional procedural votes, also favors an increase in the wage floor.
"That's a pretty good bill and a pretty good compromise," Patrick said. "In fact, it gets to $11 faster than under the proposal that some of the ballot initiative activists have pressed and I think it's a good solution."
The bill calls for $1 increases in the $8 an hour minimum wage on Jan. 1 for the next three years.
According to House Labor and Workforce Development Co-chair Rep. Thomas Conroy, the legislation, if passed, would over three years raise the wage for tipped workers from $2.63 an hour to $3.75 per hour by 2017.
Conroy said it's the first increase in the hourly wage for tipped workers since 1999.
Opposing the House-Senate conference committee report, House Minority Leader Brad Jones said the bill's attempt to ease unemployment insurance rules for businesses falls short of what's needed and represents a "missed opportunity," since he does not expect the Legislature to take another stab at unemployment insurance reform anytime soon.
The bill still faces enactment votes in the House and Senate before heading to the governor's desk.
In the House, Rep. Colleen Garry of Dracut was the only Democrat to vote against the bill. Republican Reps. Viriato deMacedo, Angelo D'Emilia, Paul Frost, Shaunna O'Connell, Randy Hunt and David Vieira voted in favor of the hike.
Jones (R-North Reading) said he supports increasing the minimum wage by $1.50 an hour over three years, and most members of his caucus are comfortable with that. But the compromise's increase to $11 is "too much, too fast, too soon," he said.
Rep. James Lyons (R-Andover) said the minimum wage increases will raise costs for small businesses by 37 percent over three years. "This is an unfair tax on the small businesses in the Commonwealth," said Lyons, predicting some companies will go out of business.
"This is simply bad legislation, it is bad for the economy and it is bad for the people you claim you are interested in helping," Lyons added.
Separately, the House voted 126-22 for legislation establishing a domestic workers' bill of rights.
Conroy said the bill offers protections for people who work as nannies and in other domestic jobs, ensuring they are afforded proper breaks and time off.
House approves $11 minimum wage
BOSTON -- The House on Wednesday approved legislation raising the minimum wage to $11 over three years and authorizing a 31 percent increase in the hourly wage for tipped workers in Massachusetts.

Hi Everyone!
I thought I would post this reminder of our next upcoming Genealogy Program at the Schaumburg Township District Library.
There is no pre-registration required in order to attend the program. There is no fee charged to attend. Anyone can attend this program. You do not have to be a library card holder with the Schaumburg Township District Library in order to attend.
Here are the details of our upcoming program for Tuesday evening, December 13, 2016:
The Genealogy program will be held on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 at 7:30 PM in the 2nd floor Classroom. There is no formal presentation for this gathering. Instead, we will have our breakout group discussions so participants can work within a small group of people having specific interests in a common genealogical topic. The object is to share information and experience on this topic among those in the breakout group.
We are planning on having the same breakout groups we had in our previous breakout groups based on various nationalities. These will be Polish, Czech, German, Irish, British, Italian, Scandinavian, and Colonial American. There will also be a "new" DNA/Adoption table. Finally, there will also be a Beginners Group.
A laptop computer connected to our projector will also be available in the room to use by those in attendance. Participants are also encouraged to bring in their own lap top or net book to connect wirelessly to the library's WiFi Network. This will allow the user to share information with other participants in areas of genealogical research.
Some of the above mentioned groups may be eliminated if there are not enough participants in any one group to make it beneficial. Some groups that have not been identified may be added.
The doors to the room will open at approximately 7 PM so participants can pick up the handouts, review books and journals and interact with other participants. Tony Kierna, the STDL genealogist, will start the program at 7:30. Introductions of new participants will occur as well as a brief review of handouts and genealogical matters. It is expected that the breakout groups will form at around 7:45-8:00 PM. We will end the session by 9:30 PM.
For further information contact Tony Kierna at 847-923-3390.

Spinach and Pancetta Strata - Pink Saturday
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...It's time for the April challenge at Recipes to Rival. This month's challenge, chosen by Temperama of High on the Hog, was a Giada De Laurentis recipe for a Spinach and Pancetta Strata. It's a wonderful recipe for this time of year. It can be assembled the night before serving and that makes it a natural for for a Mother's Day brunch. I cut all the ingredients in half, but made no other changes to the recipe we were asked to prepare. Those of you who have large families to entertain will appreciate the ease with which this can be assembled. The strata is simple to make and it uses readily available ingredients. It is also delicious. One of the nice things about Giada's recipes is their consistency. They are never great but they are always good and visually appealing. I hope you'll try this. You won't be disappointed. Here's the recipe.
Spinach and Pancetta Strata...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite, courtesy of Giada De Laurentis from Everyday Italian episode: My Family Favorites
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 ounces thinly sliced pancetta, coarsely chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 (10-ounce) box chopped frozen spinach, thawed, squeezed dry
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
8 cups cubed Italian bread, from a 1-pound loaf
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
3 cups whole milk
10 large eggs
1) Heat oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add pancetta and saute until crisp and golden, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer pancetta to a bowl. Add onion to pan drippings in same skillet and saute until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add spinach and garlic. Saute over medium-low heat until garlic is tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, nutmeg, and cooked pancetta.
2) Place half of bread cubes in a buttered 3-quart baking dish. Sprinkle half of cheese over the bread, then top with half of spinach mixture. Repeat layering.
3) Whisk milk, eggs, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper in a large bowl and pour evenly over strata. Chill strata, covered with plastic wrap, at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.
4) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
5) Bake strata uncovered until puffed, golden brown, and cooked through, about 40 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 8 servings.

Giada's recipes are always reliable, which is probably what is so great about them. I've never made a strata before, but seeing as how it falls into the bread pudding family, I am definitely going to have to! Love the spinach and pancetta combo.

This is a perfect brunch recipe for Mother's Day. Lovely recipe. I have never made a strata or a fritata, so I think I will have to try my hand at this one.
I do have to disagree with you and some of your commenters. I love Giada, and she does have some pretty fantastic recipes out there. No they are not all outstanding, you just have to pick and choose. For instance she has a recipe on FN for: Grilled Meats and Vegetables over Saffron Orzo" which I have made on more than one occasion that is absolutely delicious. Also her "Artichoke Gratinata" which received rave reviews from Kim at Stirring the Pot. Sorry, but I just adore her and I love Italian food.

It was an extra starry, musical day at the Dolby Theatre.
Adele took the stage first Friday, followed by the cast of "Les Miserables," singing together of the first time.
Oscar nominees Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway, along with co-stars Russell Crowe, Amanda Seyfried, Helena Bonham-Carter, Sasha Baron-Cohen, Eddie Redmayne, Aaron Tveit and Samantha Barks rehearsed their performances on the Oscar stage. They were backed by members of the musical's stage productions from London and Broadway.
"Les Miserables" director Tom Hooper sat in the front row of the theater as his cast sang.
Moments earlier, Adele dazzled the tiny audience of show workers with her performance of the James Bond theme "Skyfall."
"I need a lot more reverb on me," she said after her first run. "You might need to get a new reverb machine."
The 24-year-old multiple Grammy winner arrived wearing a black tunic, black leggings and flats, with no makeup and her hair in a ponytail.
"I'm going to have very high heels on the night, guys," she announced from the microphone, sipping tea between verses.
"Do you need the dresses?" she asked, and a team of stylists brought out the gowns Adele is considering for her Oscar performance.
The dress producers favored? "It's very heavy — I mean I struggle to stand in it," Adele said. "Come and feel how heavy it is, so you don't think I'm a wimp!"
She performed her Oscar-nominated song five times before leaving the theater. "It's been good, yeah?" she asked producer Neil Meron, who nodded in approval.
Just after Adele wrapped, the star-studded "Les Miserables" cast took the stage. Hathaway chatted with Bonham-Carter as Jackman sang a capella. Then Hathaway checked her microphone with a quick verse.
"Ooh, that was flat," she said.
The entire cast assembled for a final run-through when Jackman spontaneously began singing "My Bonny Lies over the Ocean."
"My bonny lies over my daddy," the ensemble responded, breaking into laughter.
Other stars rehearsing Friday included Jennifer Hudson, who is set to perform a song from "Dreamgirls" at Sunday's ceremony.

For more than 20 years, Doug McClelland and Anthony Tucker lived on a floating home in Coal Harbour. For McClelland, originally from Winnipeg, and Tucker, from Ireland, it was the ultimate West Coast lifestyle - surrounded by water and boats, parks and mountains, yet intimate and friendly. "It's like living in a small town, just down the shore from the big city," says McClelland.
Then it all went sideways - literally. On Christmas Day in 2008, while McClelland and Tucker were away on vacation, a blizzard in Vancouver dumped so much snow on the roof of the home it became unstable and tipped over onto a neighbouring sailboat. A restoration firm hired by their insurance company managed to rescue their computers and photo albums from the top floor, but the house and most of the contents were destroyed.
Recently, a sleek new home that was built to replace it finally arrived in Coal Harbour. Constructed on land in a Richmond marina, it was lifted by an enormous boat hoist, lowered into the Fraser River and then towed by tugboat to Coal Harbour. The entire process has been filmed for the British documentary television series, Monster Moves.
The first floating home built under the city's new design guidelines for marine and floating homes, "it has cost a fortune and taken forever," says McClelland. "Our architect, Russ Chernoff, got us through this."
Chernoff, a principal of Chernoff Thompson Architects who once lived on a boat, has designed numerous floating homes and spoken on the topic internationally. The silver lining was that they were able to redesign and improve the house, says McClelland.
"We got to build in all those things that you accumulate in the back of your mind over 20 years living someplace."
The decks are more sculpted, the exterior is more elaborate, and there's an extra bathroom and a separate office. Instead of a ladder to the roof, there is now an indoor stairway. The gleaming new kitchen has white granite countertops, a counter-depth Blomberg fridge and Ädel Ikea cabinets in a Shaker style to match the doors throughout the house. All the furniture is new, from Dekora. As before, there are two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, with the kitchen, living and dining room downstairs. However, the kitchen is now on an inside wall, so the exterior walls can all be glass.
Decks on all three levels (off the living room, the master bedroom and on the roof) along with copious windows and skylights expand the 1,157-square-foot living space both visually and physically, as well as connecting it to its environment. Deck railings are glass, although the bottom deck is open to the water: Chernoff discovered that decks less than two feet above the next surface down, in this case the water, do not need railings.
Other aspects of the design guidelines and building code were more challenging - and expensive. Apart from size, height and stability considerations, they covered design details like the exterior colour, materials and nautical elements. Vinyl siding, although lightweight and water-resistant, is not a natural material, so the home is clad in cedar and aluminum, which resembles the corrugated steel used in boat sheds. The guidelines required portholes, achieved here with conventional round windows, rather than the marine variety. Window placement was affected by what will be next to each side of the home, and a certain percentage of a house must be a fireproof wall, limiting the total amount of glass. To increase the glass, the Shaker-style front doors were custommade with special double-glazed windows reinforced with wire mesh at a cost of almost $4,000. Berth sizes have changed, so moorage will increase to almost $2,000 a month to accommodate a minimum four-foot distance between the house and neighbouring boats. The house is earthquake-proof and built with two-by-sixes instead of two-by-fours to accommodate more insulation.
"It's got pros in the long term," says McClelland. "It's a better house; it's more secure; it uses less energy." On the other hand, it is more costly. As a result, he and Tucker have reluctantly decided to sell the home instead of moving in, an outcome McClelland describes as bittersweet.
"It's sort of a dream project to build your own house from scratch and to have built this fabulous house," says McClelland. "We'd still be happily living in our more economical house if the catastrophe hadn't happened, but we always knew at some point we'd have to sell because once you retire, your life changes." Now that Tucker has retired from his job in psychiatric assessment at Children's Hospital, he and McClelland, who works at Marquis Wine Cellars, have more time to travel. "And it's not really good to leave the floating homes alone as we found out before," says McClelland with a rueful laugh. The loan on the house and higher moorage fees would have stretched them financially, plus friends in real estate advised that it's better to sell something new than used. "So then the decision was between live in it for a year and take the pleasure of that or make a better business decision," he says.
"In the end, we did the numbers and said, 'Let's go to Buenos Aires instead.' " They will miss Coal Harbour, which they have seen transformed from a rustic working marina to berthplace for yachts of the rich and famous.
When the area was redeveloped, they convinced city council to ensure Marathon Realty would accommodate the six pre-existing floating homes. "We were two kind of young guys when we started, and our life sort of gentrified over the same period," says McClelland. "We used to have a couple of motorcycles, and now we have a couple of BMWs. We kind of evolved with the neighbourhood." The new house will be right at home.
Floating homes have a long history on the West Coast.
The first ones were log cabins on log floats built in the 1800s.
Locally, most are moored in marinas or on private properties along the Fraser River in Ladner, Richmond, New Westminster and Langley, says Sutton realtor Ricki Willing, who specializes in the sale of floating homes.
There are also 19 floating homes in North Vancouver's Mosquito Creek Marina, with plans for 16 more.
The City of Vancouver has just 12 legal floating homes on Granville Island and six in Coal Harbour.
Although floating homes can be moved, they rarely are; unlike houseboats, most do not have motors. Moorage fees in marinas start at about $700 a month, depending on the size of the float and the location; stratatitled water lots start at $250,000.
House sizes range from 400 to 3,000 square feet, with purchase prices from $50,000 to $1 million.

Are You An Award Loser? Learn How to Become a Winner
Are You Frustrated With Joining Design Awards and Competitions, Spending Your Time and Effort Yet Always Getting Nothing? Don't Be
If you have joined design awards and competitions but had never won any design awards, you might be questioning yourself whether if there are some things going on behind the scenes, or if these competitions might be rigged etc. In some cases, there really are things going on and in some cases, you are missing some important points.You have right to ask all these questions and here are some of the rules you should follow in order to win an award your next design competition entry, but before that lets discriminate internal and external factors of losing, and convert them into winning factors instead.External Factors of losing: You might be losing design awards because you might be joining some unfair awards where the winners are already selected even before the competition begins. This is a common issue in some association or government supported competitions where the winners are usually are from a close circle of friends. If you feel that the design award or competition is rigged, it is rigged. Do not join competitions that require you to book a table at gala-night for several thousands of euros. Do not join competitions that do not offer any services. Do not join competitions where contact details are not present. Do not join awards where there are no promises.Another external factor that you could avoid is to join awards that asks you to pay money after you win the award, in order to claim your award. This happens in several ways: You might need to pay one or multiple of the following: The Gala-Night, The Exhibition, The Yearbook and even to claim that you are a winner, to use the logo etc.It is strange to note that the famous and well known RedDot Design Award and If Design Award are such competitions. You will be losing your opportunity of winning their awards if you do not pay these prestigious design competitions several thousand euros after results announced. Now, that you know it, you might be more careful about what you are signing when joining awards.I will not go further into a discussion of how people get ripped of by some awards, but I will now provide some internal factors and suggestions, that you could follow to increase your chances of winning any design awards and becoming successful design award winners. Here are the rules of thumbs for winning a design award.Inner factors of winning: Only the best entries wins design awards, but not only that, the entries should be both good and original. Remember that the jurors reputation is at stake when judging your entry, therefore competitions with better jury will be even harder to win. Make sure you present unique and interesting projects.Clearly presented; if you have spent hours and hours for your project, your project deserves the same kind of attention for the presentation. Make sure that your project is very clearly presented to the jury. Spend your time in explaining the design and why it is different from other designs. Remember that if they understand it better, they will like it more.Describe your project without the following words: Innovative, Breakthrough, Incredible, Great, Best, Timeless etc. Your purpose is to explain your design in a clear manner, do not write as if you are preparing an advertisement to the jury. The best way to advertise to the jury is to be clear and transparent about your work. But still, no need tell apparent drawbacks or defects if any.It is best to use photographs which shows the design in a contextual way such as an action shot showing the product in use, or a photography where your project, service etc is being used. Make sure people in this photos are relevant audience for your design project and they look happy or content for interacting with your product, service or project.Mutliple Submissions; you can submit your designs into multiple categories, i.e. if you have a product, it could win a packaging award or functionality award etc. You can even submit your project to same competition twice or at different times especially if the jury changes annually, as different jurors will have different aesthetic preferences.Make sure your are eligible, many people lose design competitions because their submission is indeed ineligible. For instance including your logo or name in the design submission or presentation is always a negative thing and should never be done as it is usually forbidden to have your logo in the presentation. You should use also the least amount of text you could to explain your design. Try to think how you would be explaining your design if you would be given only 150 chars to communicate it. Make sure that people understand your design and its function immediately and easily. Include close-ups, details, schematics, section views etc as required.Design awards are not beauty contests, make sure that your design is also functional and the function is clearly communicated. You did a crazy looking chair, so what? It is more important to make a crazy looking yet super ergonomic chair, that people enjoy. Work in this direction and do not submit art pieces to design competitions unless there is a category for them.Quality of images are very important when joining design competitions that requires you to submit photos or images online as they cannot evaluate your design by seeing it, visiting it or touching it. Therefore have your products photographed professionally, and have your projects rendered perfectly and then join competitions. This is important also after the competition; press will also require better images for publication.Description is really important, providing a description of your design will help the jury to understand it better, and thus evaluate it definitively more positive due to familiarity effect. Remember, people will vote negatively if they do not understand your design, they will just vote negatively.If you truly want to win a design award, join multiple competitions, there can be free and paid competitions; local awards, national prized and international design competitions. You will need a budget for participation fees and time for preparing presentation and submitting your design.If you do not want to loose a design competition, first of all don't get eliminated. Read the entry instructions and terms carefully. In addition, why not ask some of your friends about how they really think about your entry, so that if they don't like it you might have time to improve the presentation before submitting it to a design award.Final Tip: No matter which competition you are going to join, you can upload your works to A' Design Award to utilize their free preliminary checking service; this service gives your design a score between 0 to 10, and it is a free way to get 3rd party insights about your design before nominating it to any design awards or competitions.Exerpt:If you have joined design awards and competitions but had never won any design awards, you might be questioning yourself whether if there are some things going on behind the scenes, or if these competitions might be rigged etc. In some cases, there really are things going on and in some cases, you are missing some important points.You have right to ask all these questions and here are some of the rules you should follow in order to win an award your next design competition entry, but before that..

It's that time of year again, time to dust off the previous year's resolutions and revise them to reflect one's goals for the coming year. This year, instead of making a to-do list I'm making a five-year plan incorporating long-term goals in a way that, I hope, will help me become a better and more productive researcher.
My five-year plan includes:
- Educational programs I hope to attend.
- Book-length transcription projects I would like to work on.
- An outline of projects to complete so that I can apply for certification through the Board for Certification of Genealogists.
- Other projects that will help me become a better researcher and a better professional, like updating my records and resources web site (an ongoing project), writing popular and scholarly articles, and developing lectures on topics of local interest.
- Personal goals.
I've divided the above between the next five years, and further subdivided those into what I hope to accomplish each month.
Making concrete goals and having a plan for fulfilling them is an important part of the growth process. I find, increasingly, that merely making of list of items I need to work on doesn't get me any closer to meeting the long-term goals I've set for myself. Hence, the five-year detailed plan.
While I am setting concrete monthly, weekly, and daily goals (especially important for lengthy transcription projects), I realize that I have to remain flexible. As my friend Johnny Parisi says, it's written on paper, not in stone. However, knowing that I have two and a half years to finish the certification process or otherwise qualify for Elizabeth Shown Mills' Course 4: Advanced Methodology and Evidence Analysis (given annually at Samford University's Institute of Genealogy & Historical Research) in June 2014 is a great motivator. In turn, I know that in order to be the best genealogy professional I can be, my ultimate goal, I will need to attend that course and others.
Happy New Year to all my friends and fellow researchers. May 2012 be a happy, productive, and profitable year for you all.

| 13.2°C Dublin
Katy Perry has been crowned Woman Of The Year at the 2014 Elle Style Awards.
The Roar singer was presented with her gong by pop princess Kylie Minogue at the glamorous award ceremony in London.
The 29-year-old US pop star is known for her campaign work for gay rights and her support of same-sex marriage.
Katy, who divorced British comedian Russell Brand in 2011 after just 14 months of marriage, recently recorded duet Who You Love with boyfriend John Mayer, and the couple are rumoured to be engaged.
Guests including model-of-the-moment Cara Delevingne, singer Ellie Goulding, former Bond girl Olga Kurylenko and designer Tom Ford were treated to a champagne reception, a 1950s supper club menu and table butler service at the magazine's 17th annual celebration of style.
Lily Allen, who recently returned to the music scene after taking a break to become a mother, was named Female UK Recording Artist of the Year and said she felt "humbled" to have returned to music again.
"I'm feeling very good, very happy. I can't believe it - I'm in shock," she said after collecting her award.
"I'm very happy and very humbled to be back."
The face of Burberry, Suki Waterhouse, who took home the gong for Model of the Year, said it was the "perfect end to London Fashion Week."
"I'm really excited, thank you, thank you," she gushed. "I won model of the year, how weird, how bizarre."
Asked what the key to being a successful model is, she said: "Perseverance and trying to keep happy. It's not easy. I've been doing it since I was 16."
Tinie Tempah - who earlier this week high-fived the Duke of Cambridge as he performed at the Baftas - took home the title of Male UK Recording Artist of the Year.
Harry Potter star Emma Watson was awarded Actress of the Year and Happy singer Pharrell Williams was presented with the gong for International Recording Artist.
Pharrell said it was the "biggest song I have ever done in my life" after hundreds of fans uploaded copycat videos of themselves dancing along to the catchy tune.
He revealed he would give a style award to the Olsen twins, Brad Pitt and Chanel, adding: "My taste is a little all over the place."
Fashion photographer David Bailey was presented with a Lifetime Achievement award by designer and director Tom Ford while Tom Hiddleston, fresh from his run starring in Coriolanus at the Donmar theatre, London, was named Man of the Year.
British designer of the year went to Scotsman Christopher Kane who said he was a "little bit in shock, I'm very proud".
Talking about how his life has changed, he added: "People are always surprised I still have my Scottish accent. I'm very lucky, I have a great background and support."
He also took the opportunity to back a united Great Britain: "I think we're great united, stronger united, and that's it."
The Elle Style Awards 2014 in association with Warehouse were hosted by Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw at newly refurbished venue One Embankment.
Winners of the Elle Style Awards 2014 are as follows:

Syncfusion has released Essential Studio Enterprise Edition 2014, Volume 2. The release includes several updates, such as a new set of ASP.NET controls completely driven by HTML 5 and JavaScript. It also introduces the company's suite of universal Windows app controls.
The new version of Syncfusion's ASP.NET suite is fully rendered on the client side to hopefully improve user interaction and performance. All the controls are said to have a "rich design time experience" (we think that means they're OK to use) and also allow data binding to server-side data sources.
"Previous versions of Essential Studio for ASP.NET, now referred to as ASP.NET Classic, will continue to be supported," said Daniel Jebaraj, vice president of Syncfusion.
The Volume 2 release also marks the beginning of Syncfusion support for universal Windows apps, enabling developers to more efficiently (says Syncfusion) create apps for the family of Windows devices and expand their customer base across Windows tablets, phones, and desktops. The initial set of more than 30 universal app controls from Syncfusion will include innovative charts, grids, and more.
Updates have been made to the other Essential Studio platforms, such as touch support for Windows Forms. Several new controls have also been added, including new Windows Forms controls, such as a maps control, and rating control. Syncfusion has also added support for TypeScript to its JavaScript suite. (TypeScript is a development language that aids in the structuring of code in JavaScript, which is especially useful when dealing with complex or large-scale applications.)

From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Audie Cornish.
And I'm Melissa Block. President Obama has been talking a lot lately about income inequality. Today, he visited a factory in North Carolina and announced new steps that he said would create more good-paying, middle class jobs. He plans to do that by boosting American manufacturing and at the center of that plan is a big idea: a new, federally-funded innovation institute.
Here's NPR's Chris Arnold to explain how it would work and why some economists have doubts.
CHRIS ARNOLD, BYLINE: In his last State of the Union address, the president said he wanted to create these new manufacturing institutes across the country. The goal is to bring together industry, universities and government to spur innovation and to help private companies come up with new products and to hire more workers.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: We want to do that here in North Carolina and we want to do this all across America.
ARNOLD: The president spoke at North Carolina State University in Raleigh. He's been asking Congress to create dozens more of these innovations hubs. Congress hasn't passed any of that legislation yet, but the president says he can start the first few of these himself.
OBAMA: And today, I'm here to act, to help make Raleigh Durham and America a magnet for the good high tech manufacturing jobs that a growing middle class requires and there is going to continue to keep this country on the cutting edge. So...
ARNOLD: This particular institute will seek to develop a new generation of computer chips and electronics. The White House has committed $200 million so far to these institutes across five federal agencies. The president said Germany has more than 60 of these types of innovation institutes helping its manufacturing industry and the U.S. should do something similar.
Still, some economists are less than enthusiastic.
ENRICO MARETTI: Manufacturing employment has been declining for four decades now and it's one of the industries that has performed the worst over the long run.
ARNOLD: Enrico Maretti is a labor economist at UC, Berkeley. He says that manufacturing has lost about 7 million jobs in the past 35-odd years and it's gained about half a million of those back during the recovery more recently. But still, he says, the long run trend is down. He'd rather see resources spent to support more promising industries in terms of job growth.
MARETTI: If you look at jobs in life science, they've been growing at a rate that is 12 times faster than the rest of the labor market.
ARNOLD: Maretti says it might sound good to say you want to help the middle class with manufacturing jobs, but he's not optimistic that that will do much to help, mainly because he thinks that those jobs will continue to get replaced by computers and machines. But other economists say that they like what the president's doing here.
Peter Cappelli is a labor economist with the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.
PETER CAPPELLI: It's a good idea, you know. U.S. has the capability to do much better in manufacturing than we've been doing.
ARNOLD: David Autor is also a labor economist. He's at MIT and he studies the impact of technology and globalization. What he likes about these government-backed innovation hubs is that they're not picking this technology or industry over that one, pushing a particular company, say, that makes solar panels or something.
DAVID AUTOR: So I think they're aiming at the right target here. Whether it will all work, I doubt it, but some of it will work and some of it works really well, even if most of it doesn't it will still have been a good investment.
ARNOLD: The White House says it will announce the creation of two more manufacturing innovation institutes in coming weeks. Chris Arnold, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
