This is a partial list of my family surnames which I'm researching and the connected families who where brave enough to marry us! I'm presenting the family names in alphabetical order… no favouritism involved.
Looking for my ancestors . In particular a mary O'Donnell born about 1920 came to Glasgow around 1938 and worked as a domestic servant in southbrae avenue jordanhill , bridge of weir .
I have limited information on my family. We show in some sketchy family records coming from Donegal on the west side and possibly from County Down on the east side. Have you seen anything on Wachob or sometimes spelled Walkup or Wachope?
Looking for the buriel place of my grandmother mary anna beattie wilson, formally of 22 lewis street derry, died apprx 1936/1937, married to a arthur george pointer, formally from england, daughter of charlotte and thomas wilson
Do you know of a John Diver from Tullynaha (or some similar name), married Nellie O'Donnell from Drumboarty before moving to the USA in 1850 or so? Thanks. Patrick Diver, Wesley, Arkansas
Hello Colleen. In your list of twisted limbs & crooked branches, you mentioned Johnson & Morrison. Grasping at straws, I am looking for 2 people: One is Lawrence Johnson, dob July 27,1741 born in "England" somewhere & not sure emigrated to the United States, but before the "Boston tea party".
He & his family later emigrated to Canada before 1800. He married & they had their children in the United States. The other is James J Morrison dob March 23,1815, supposedly in the Island of Jeresy. Apparently sailed to the United States by himself on June 14,1834, aboard the ship Edmond from Londonderry to Philadelphia. Somewhere along the way he came to Canada and stayed with an aunt Prudence Caldwell (who married a Richardson) and an uncle Leslie Monteray Caldwell. Anything look familiar?? Thank you for your time. Bill
Hi Colleen, I have the McKee name in my family tree. I believe they were from Donegal like my Hammond family. Jane McKee b. abt 1814 in Ireland married John Hammond b. abt 1811 in Ireland. They came to the U.S. in 1851 with their children, James, William, Thomas and Ann. The McKees also came over around the same time. Charles McKee b. abt 1811 in Ireland married Sarah "Sally" Flood b. abt 1820. They had Rebecca Ann b. abt 1844 in Ireland who married William Hammond b. abt 1831 in Ireland, William Mckee, b. abt 1847 and Matilda McKee b. abt 1850.
Hi, I was looking through your branches and I have Mclaughlin's who came from the Coleraine area of Londonderry. I also have Kennedy's and McAllister's from Ballycastle area
My great grandparents were married in Lisburn Cathedral. they were Jane Gordon and Samuel McNeice. Any connection to your Gordon family?
I saw your link on Facebook (Antrim is one of the pages I follow). So I checked out your page & see that we share a number of family surnames.
The majority of my ancestors left Antrim in the early 1800's, and settled in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa, & points westward. So, looking at your families:
Berry: you list Carruthers (I have a Carrithers; close); Dunlop (I have Dunlap, same house); and McKee. My McKee's married into the Walkinshaw's. And my 3rd great uncle's middle name was McKee (Robert McKee Glasgow).
Love: My 2nd great grandfather was James Love Glasgow. I initially presumed Love was to honor a local Presbyterian minister (Londonderry, Guernsey County, Ohio). But it crops up in my other families also as a middle name, so I wonder whether there is a deeper connection? I also have Gray's (John Gray married Jane Glasgow in Colerain, before 1830, and later settled in Kentucky). And my 3rd great grandmother was Jane Neill, which makes me wonder about your Neil's. According to her obituary, Jane was from Portglenone.
Murdoch: I see you have McDowell. I have McDowell's who married into Moreland, Dunlap, & McAdam.
Scott: You have McKeown. Alexander McKeown married Rosanna Glasgow (my 4th great aunt) in Antrim about 1819.
We probably need to compare notes!
Hi Robert, I am a descendant of the LOVE family in Northern Ireland as well as Templeton Gray who settled in the US. Perhaps we have a connection?
My John Gray, b. 1798; married Jane Glasgow in Colerain. At least before 1836. He may have been from Townland Cornasoo, Parish Killmore, County Monaghan, Northern Ireland. Settled Ohio initially, then on to Kentucky.
Hi Colleen Jane Gordon was born Nov. 10, 1850 in Colin. Daughter of Robert and possibly Christina. She married Samuel McNeice in Lisburn on Feb 1, 1871. She died on Oct. 10, 1929 in Belfast and is buried in Dundonald Cemetary . Hope this info is helpful.
"There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: One is roots, the other is wings." Teaching children values and giving them the opportunity to excel is essential to good parenting. However, I feel I must also provide my children (and myself) insight into the ones who came before us: our ancestors whose lives and stories have shaped us into who we are. This is my journey; these are their stories…

Hulu's Final Bidders: DirecTV, AT&T + Chernin, Time Warner Cable
One down, two and a half to go.
The ongoing Hulu sale saga, which has stretched on for a couple years, looks like it is finally winding down: The Web video site's owners are now considering offers from two suitors that want to buy the company outright, and one that wants to buy a minority stake.
The remaining players: Satellite TV service DirecTV wants to buy all of Hulu, as does a partnership between AT&T and media executive Peter Chernin. And Time Warner Cable has offered to buy a minority stake in the video site, which is currently owned by Disney, 21st Century Fox and Comcast.
If you've been following the ins and outs of the Hulu sale, you'll note that this list does not include Guggenheim Partners, which had also bid for all of Hulu last week. As CNBC reported earlier, Hulu's owners informed Guggenheim executives today that they were no longer considering the investment company's bid.
People familiar with the Hulu sale process tell me that Guggenheim had bid around $1 billion for the video site plus a package of programming rights that would extend up to five years.
I don't know what the remaning bidders have offered for the company, but it may be telling that all of the players left in the game are already in the video distribution business.
What that means for the future of the service's paid and free offerings won't be clear for a while, but we should at least know who the winner is soon: Hulu's sellers say they would like to finish up the sale process in the next couple weeks.

A multibillion-dollar Kitimat oil refinery proposed by newspaper publisher David Black has great economic potential and should be seriously considered by the province, says a report commissioned by the B.C. government.
"Such a refinery would provide incremental long-term economic benefits to the region, compared to export of unfinished (crude oil)," concluded the report by Navigant Consulting Inc., of California.
"In addition and equally importantly, if configured carefully and managed properly, the refinery would create sustainable margins that otherwise would be lost to Asian purchasers of Canada's oilsands production," said the report on Black's proposed Kitimat Clean Ltd. project in northwest B.C.
A properly designed refinery would be "capable of manufacturing fuel products for a myriad of countries around the Pacific Rim," the report states.
And it could cost considerably less than the $16-billion price tag that Black recently gave, although providing a precise cost estimate at this early stage is difficult. (Black prices the entire project at $25 billion, with the rest spent on oil and natural gas pipelines and tankers).
The report's release comes days after Premier Christy Clark came close to endorsing the proposed oil refinery development, maintaining that it nearly meets the province's five conditions for allowing heavy oil initiatives.
In a statement released late Monday, Clark said she is encouraged by the Navigant report, adding that it "confirms David Black's belief that the refinery can be profitable and also be in the interests of British Columbians.
"As I said last week, Kitimat Clean could be a game changer with respect to the debate around heavy oil. We are encouraged by this report and look forward to working with Mr. Black to ensure our five conditions are met by his proposal, including world-leading environmental standards, First Nations participation, and a fair share of benefits for British Columbia."
Energy and Mines Minister Rich Coleman said that for him, the report's biggest point is that the proposal is viable. He said he also likes the recommendation that the refinery not be tied to any one market. "It confirms what I've thought."
Asked if the report was released to coincide with the coming election, Coleman said the government commissioned the report and "there's no point in sitting on it."
But NDP energy and mines critic John Horgan said the government's release of the report now "is an attempt to ignite an election issue rather than focus on governing."
The project is eight years out, he said, and the government should be focusing on more pressing matters. "We're a good distance away from this being relevant. I wish (Black) well, (but) there's not a lot of resource analysts that say this project is a winner."
Last fall, Black floated the idea of building the Kitimat refinery in northwest B.C. to reframe the discussion on Enbridge's controversial $6-billion proposed Northern Gateway oil pipeline by promising 10 times as many jobs as the pipeline and eliminating the shipment of oilsands crude off the coast.
The idea is to process all of the 550,000 barrels a day of Alberta oilsands bitumen from the pipeline at the refinery, and then ship the lighter refined products such as gasoline, diesel and kerosene to Asia.
Black — who recently said he's on the verge of signing a financing memorandum of understanding with Switzerland-based Oppenheimer Investments Group — argues if there was a tanker spill, the refined products would cause less environmental damage than oil because they float and evaporate.
The government commissioned Navigant to prepare a technical review of the project, including an estimate of its economic performance, and to compile an assessment of the Asian fuel supply and whether the output from Kitimat could be sold profitably to four Asian countries: China, India, South Korea and Japan.
"It is Navigant's opinion that the refinery configuration recommended by Kitimat Clean Fuels (KC) is technically sound. They have suggested using a combination of hydrocracking and delayed coking to process oilsands from Alberta into various clean fuels. This particular configuration is well-proven and widely employed in many locations around the world."
The Navigant report analyzed the fuel supply and demand balance for the four Asian countries from 1990 to 2010, concluding that demand for imports has been stable at roughly two million barrels per day for the last 15 years.
"Thus the output from Kitimat (0.5 million barrels per day) could be accommodated by markets in Asia/Oceania without major disruption to local spot markets."
The report concluded that the refining sector in the four countries lags the U.S., western Europe and Canada, both in terms of technical upgrading capability, as well as size. "Thus a sophisticated export refinery on the Pacific Rim could help fill the region's ongoing import needs."
The report said the refinery "would not only create employment and economic benefits for the province, but would also increase the overall value of Canada's natural resources, versus exports of crude oil and/or bitumen."
Another advantage, it said, is that large crude oil tankers needed to transport bitumen wouldn't be needed and that "vessels used to export products would, on average, be considerably smaller.
"Given the smaller parcel sizes with products, however, the number of vessel movements would by necessity have to increase."
However, the report noted that potential markets have not yet been determined so profitability would be dependent on market selection.
"Since its production could, in theory, be delivered to any of the importing countries around the Pacific Rim, one approach to maximize margin would be to design the refinery to ensure that it can blend finished products to meet the likely specifications in any of these countries. Such an approach has been used successfully in many export refineries around the world, particularly in resources-rich countries of the Middle East."
"Furthermore, it is our recommendation that the province approve a design for Kitimat that would make it capable of manufacturing fuel products for a myriad of countries around the Pacific Rim. This would preclude being tied to only a few destination markets (or perhaps just one)."
The report follows a poll commissioned by Black and released earlier this month concluded that more than half of British Columbians support the Kitimat oil refinery.

Both Wil Trapp and Matt Lampson received an exciting piece of news this afternoon with the announcement that they are headed to Portland to play in the first-ever Chipotle MLS Homegrown Game. While the recognition is certainly a point of pride for both players, it's also a point of pride for the Crew Soccer Academy, the mechanism that aims to develop talent and produce Homegrown signees for the club.
"It's fantastic, obviously," said Andrew Arthurs, the Crew's Sr. Vice President of Soccer Business Development and the Executive Director of Crew Juniors. "We're extremely proud of all of our Homegrowns in general, and to have these two selected to play alongside the other top young players in the League is really exciting. We're really proud of them."
The Crew is tied with FC Dallas for the most current Homegrown signees in the League, with seven. That's a fact that isn't lost on Arthurs, who said that he wouldn't have been surprised had a few other deserving Crew candidates been selected.
"[Having the League's highest number of Homegrown Players] means a lot to us, obviously," said Arthurs. "Dallas does a terrific job; they're one of the top soccer markets in the country for sure in terms of participation and quality. For us, Columbus and the state of Ohio, which is our home territory, we have to do things a little bit differently. That it's working is really encouraging, and that it compares well to the bigger markets is great."
With emphasis on youth development in the USA, Arthurs expects the importance of Homegrown signees to increase in future MLS seasons.
"You're only going to see more of that moving forward. With the World Cup and what some of the young players have done there, [such as] Yedlin from Seattle, we need all of the MLS youth academies to really set the standard from a youth development perspective, in conjunction with our youth National Teams. For me, having been there starting the program, to see where it's come in eight years is very cool, but the next three, four, five, ten years, it's going to zoom forward."
Arthurs added that the club's Academy is in a great position over those next several years.
"So much time has been spent previously on building the system, and we're always going to be tweaking it administratively, operationally, technically – but I think the infrastructure is there. We're set up and now we have a track record and a resume that we can point to and say, 'Hey, we've produced this number of college players, this number of youth National Team players, this number of professional players,' where eight years ago it was in theory. We can check some of those things off the list and say that we've accomplished some of them and that it truly is a place for players with professional and National Team aspirations."

By Karen Lightman, Managing Director, MEMS Industry Group
"MEMS is only limited by the imagination" was the title of the opening keynote presented by ST's Carmelo Papa at MEMS Executive Congress Europe and in many ways this phrase perfectly summarizes the conference itself. All of the speakers on our four panels – industrial, biomedical/Quality of Life (QoL), automotive and consumer – as well as our keynotes – all conveyed that frontier feeling that MEMS can truly change the world. Sure we have some challenges to overcome (biggest being packaging), but the potential of having MEMS (frickin') everywhere is a very tangible reality, if any of the predictions of MEMS Executive Congress Europe come true.
Thankfully the numerous press who attended the Congress Europe have already done an impressive job of highlighting the panelists' and keynotes' more technical points – please refer to our Congress press coverage for the growing list of stories. So instead of retelling you who said what regarding what ISO qualification, I'll use this blog to give you the more colorful side of the Congress (shocking disclosure, I know). And speaking of color, MIG's Monica Takacs did a great job of capturing the Congress in pictures and we've posted them on our Flickr site; you will want to check it out.
I am going to share with you my favorite quotes, saving my favorite for last. I'll start with the one by our opening keynote, Carmelo Papa. When Carmelo was talking "off the ST script" his adorable Italian personality was a lot of fun. Like when he said that he couldn't reveal ST's biggest customer "even under torture," but he'd give us some hints: "it is green, and delicious to eat." What a great way to describe Apple. I also liked how he described MEMS as the "mouse for portable devices" as it enables a new realm of gesture.
My next favorite quote was from VTI's Hannu Laatikainen who I called a "Finnish Haiku Poet" when he said that we needed to "treat the car more like a human that can see, feel, hear, smell and taste." Great stuff. I absolutely enjoyed hearing every single word coming out of the mouth of Dr. Berger of Clinatec and it wasn't just because I am a sucker for a French accent. I loved his description of connecting technology with medicine and his passion for patient health, safety and welfare. He urged that there must be more money for clinical trials of technology for medical treatment to prove efficacy (not just money for consumer-inspired sport applications masking as healthcare products). I couldn't agree more.
I laughed when Stefan Finkbeiner introduced himself and stated that his company, Akustica/Bosch, hailed from Pittsburgh, the "MEMS center of the US." Stefan then modified the statement by saying that Pittsburgh is the "MEMS capital of Pennsylvania" and "definitely the MEMS capital of Western PA." My hometown is a lot of things, but not yet the MEMS capital of the US.
But my absolute favorite quote from MEMS Executive Congress Europe was from Continental's Bernhard Schmid. When someone from the audience asked the panelists if visual sensors will replace MEMS on automotive, Bernhard responded with a rhetorical question: "Have the eyes cannibalized the ears? No. Both senses/sensors are needed for smart automotive." I guess he was inspired by Hannu's earlier comment about the car's senses being more human. I wouldn't have expected such eloquence from a bunch of automotive engineering executives. But like the Congress in general, these guys impressed and surprised me.
MEMS Executive Congress Europe was a fantastic success. I was expecting 100 attendees; we had 155. I thought we had a handful of sponsors; we had over 30. I look forward to building the content for this year's upcoming MEMS Executive Congress US in Scottsdale (November 7-8) and yes, next year's event somewhere in Europe and possibly in Asia. By design, MEMS Executive Congress is a unique professional forum where executives from companies designing and manufacturing MEMS technology sit side-by-side with their end-user customers in panel discussions and networking events to exchange ideas and information about the use of MEMS in commercial applications. And clearly, with our success in Europe, MIG is meeting a need in the market. Good thing it's also lots of fun.

Nat Faulkner - Cyclist To Adventurer To Triathlete
by Matt Hansen
"Hi I'm Nat I'm a vagabond. I travel the world on my bike. I race. I tour. I sleep on couches." - From Faulkner's website.
If you've been in road cycling in Ontario, BC, or the domestic U.S. scene awhile, it's quite possible you've run into Nat Faulkner. I once described Svein Tuft - the journeyman bike tourist, camper, ultimate fighting guru cum road cyclist, as something out of a Jack Kerouac Novel. Nat Faulkner IS the novel.
Nat is constantly on the go, whether it's bike touring to Alaska, Guatemala, Northern Ontario, or living out of his car in the Southern US in order to keep his fitness up. He is a survivor. Faulkner, who won the Junior Nationals a decade ago, was pegged to be one of the "next big things." And he's lived up to that promise ... off and on.
Faulkner rode with both of the Ontario pro teams - Jet Fuel and Italpasta - winning races on both the west and east coasts in Canada and the US. He has taken provincial titles and scored medals and top placings at the Senior or U23 Nationals.

Once again a Dynamo player is getting some recognition in MLSsoccer.com's Team of the Week, but this time for offense. This week, Giles Barnes was named to the team of the week for his two goal night against Chivas USA and overall solid performance on Saturday night. Here's what the editors had to say about Barnes' performance on Saturday:
"Ran roughshod on Chivas' defense and put in the effort on the defensive end to go with his two goals. He looks like a man on a mission in 2014."
It was Barnes' third two-goal game since joining the Dynamo in 2012 and first since last September, when Chivas USA was again on the wrong end of a big night from Barnes. The Dynamo will try to carry the momentum to their match against the Columbus Crew on Wednesday at BBVA Compass Stadium.

Genital warts
Genital warts is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) passed on through vaginal, anal and, rarely, oral sex. Treatment from a sexual health clinic can help them go away.
Non-urgent advice: Go to a sexual health clinic if you have:
- 1 or more painless growths or lumps around your vagina, penis or anus
- itching or bleeding from your genitals or anus
- a change to your normal flow of pee (for example, sideways) that does not go away
- a sexual partner who has genital warts, even if you have no symptoms
You could have genital warts.
Go if you have 1 or more of these symptoms so you can find the cause.
Treatment can help get rid of the warts and prevent the infection being passed on.
See pictures of genital warts on a vagina, penis and anus
Why you should go to a sexual health clinic
You can see a GP, but they'll probably refer you to a sexual health clinic if they think you might have genital warts.
Sexual health clinics treat problems with the genitals and urine system.
Many sexual health clinics offer a walk-in service where you do not need an appointment.
They'll often get test results quicker than GP practices, and you do not have to pay a prescription charge.
What happens at a sexual health clinic
A doctor or nurse can usually diagnose warts by looking at them.
They will:
- ask you about your symptoms and sexual partners
- look closely at the lumps around your genitals and anus
- possibly need to look inside your vagina, anus or urethra (where pee comes out) depending on where your warts are
It's not possible to find out who you got genital warts from or how long you have had the infection.
Treatment for genital warts needs to be prescribed by a doctor.
The type of treatment you'll be offered depends on what your warts are like. The doctor or nurse will discuss this with you.
- cream or liquid: you can usually apply this to the warts yourself a few times a week for several weeks, but in some cases you may need to go to the clinic every week for a doctor or nurse to apply it – these treatments can cause soreness, irritation or a burning sensation
- surgery: a doctor or nurse can cut, burn or laser the warts off – this can cause irritation or scarring
- freezing: a doctor or nurse freezes the warts, usually every week for 4 weeks – this can cause soreness
It may take weeks or months for treatment to work, and the warts may come back. In some people the treatment does not work.
There's no cure for genital warts, but it's possible for your body to clear the virus over time.
tell the doctor or nurse if you're pregnant or thinking of becoming pregnant, as some treatments will not be suitable
avoid perfumed soaps or bubble baths during treatment as these can irritate the skin
ask the doctor or nurse if your cream treatment will affect condoms, diaphragms or caps
do not use wart treatment from a pharmacy – these are not made for genital warts
do not smoke – many treatments for genital warts work better if you do not smoke
do not have vaginal, anal or oral sex until the warts have gone – if you do, use a condom
How genital warts are passed on
The genital warts virus can be passed on whether or not there are visible warts.
Many people with the virus do not have symptoms but can still pass it on.
If you have genital warts, your current sexual partners should get tested as they may have warts and not know it.
If symptoms do appear, it can happen over a year after infection.
You can get genital warts from:
- skin-to-skin contact, including vaginal and anal sex
- sharing sex toys
- rarely, oral sex
The virus can also be passed to a baby from the mother at birth, but this is rare.
You cannot get genital warts from:
- kissing
- things like towels, cutlery, cups or toilet seats
Preventing the spread of genital warts
You can prevent warts passing on by:
- using a condom every time you have vaginal, anal or oral sex – but if the virus is present in skin not protected by a condom, it can still be passed on
- not having sex while you're having treatment for genital warts
Why genital warts come back
Genital warts are caused by a virus called human papillomavirus (HPV). There are many types of HPV.
The HPV virus can stay in your skin and warts can develop again.
Warts may go away without treatment, but this can take many months. You can still pass the virus on, and the warts may come back.
Genital warts and cancer
Genital warts are not cancer and do not cause cancer.
The HPV vaccine offered to girls in the UK to protect against cervical cancer also protects against genital warts.
Since April 2018, the HPV vaccine has also been offered to men who have sex with men (MSM), trans men and trans women who are eligible.
Find out more about the HPV vaccine
Genital warts and pregnancy
Tell your midwife or doctor if:
- you're pregnant, or think you're pregnant, and you have genital warts or think you have genital warts
During pregnancy, warts:
- can grow and multiply
- might appear for the first time, or come back after a long time of not being there
- can be treated safely, but some treatments should be avoided
- may be removed if they're very big to avoid problems during birth
- may be passed to the baby during birth, but this is rare – the virus can cause infection in the baby's throat or genitals
Most pregnant women with genital warts have a vaginal delivery. You might be offered a caesarean depending on your circumstances.

Your iPod is more like a miniature computer than you might think. After all, it has a screen, keys, storage, and an operating system. And just as with any PC, you can add new features, overhaul the OS, update the interface, and personalize it to your heart's content.
While you're at it, why not fill it with content from the Internet and with movies ripped from your own DVDs? And hey, why shouldn't you be able to copy your tunes off the player anytime you want? You can do all of that and more with these cool iPod hacks. They're free, harmless (meaning that you can reverse or undo any of them without hosing your player), and guaranteed to help you get more fun and function out of your iPod. (We'll identify which generations of iPod each hack works with. To determine which generation you have, consult this list.)
And since most iPods communicate with a copy of iTunes, we've thrown in a couple of hacks to make that program work the way you want it to.
Copy Music From Your iPod
Compatible with: All iPods
Here's a scenario to consider: Your PC's hard drive dies and takes your music collection with it. Or you're migrating to a new PC and need an easy way to copy over your MP3s. Either way, iPod Folder can come to your rescue. Available for Windows and Mac, this simple utility copies music directly from any iPod to any folder you choose on your PC, something you can't do with a standard iPod that lacks iPod Folder. You can even store the program on your player so it's available at a moment's notice.
To get started, connect your iPod and make sure that it's enabled for use as an external drive (check the setting in iTunes if you're not sure--go to the Summary tab when the iPod is selected); then run the iPod Folder program. Click the iPod icon and choose the appropriate drive letter for your player. Next, click the folder and choose the desired destination for your music. Finally, enable any options you want, such as Include iPod Folder Structure or MP3 Files Only (the latter is helpful if you don't want to copy DRM-protected AAC files). Click the arrow to begin the copying process.
In Video: How to Sync iTunes with Your Non-iPod Player
Carry Wikipedia on Your iPod
Compatible with: Pre-fifth-generation iPods (not including Nanos)
Is that an encyclopedia in your pocket? It is if you have Encyclopodia, an iPod-formatted version of Wikipedia--the Internet's vast repository of shared human knowledge. Just think of the (frequently accurate) facts you'll have at your disposal to impress friends, settle bar bets, and ace final exams.
All you need is the free Encyclopodia viewer, the also-free Wikipedia e-book files (available in English, German, and Italian), and a pre-fifth-generation iPod (not a Nano). iPhone and iPod touch users can access the living Wikipedia in their devices' Web browsers, of course.

This roasted carrot soup won Food52's contest for Your Best Carrot Recipe, beating out 217 other entrants. It bested the predictable salads, slaws, and carrot cakes; not to mention some more surprising recipes such as Candied Carrot Balls and Carrot Cake Ice Cream. Perhaps more significantly, it topped more than twenty other carrot soups. It's that tasty.
Roasting the carrots intensifies their flavor (not to mention their sweetness) and the ginger and thyme, which steep in the broth before it is added to the carrots, bring a subtle complexity to the bowl. This is not a carrot ginger soup. It is a carrot soup with a slight kick.
It is also ridiculously simple. The recipe calls for just seven ingredients: carrots, olive oil, vegetable stock, a sprig of thyme, ginger, onion, and garlic.
It isn't a meal in a bowl, by any means. I served it with naan and some leftover pizza. The next time I make it, I'll round out the meal in a less haphazard fashion, and when I do, we'll hear the The Professor's grade.

All-star Pittsford football lineman talks commitment to an Ivy League education
Joe Graen helped clear the way for Pittsford running back Dominick DeLucia during the high school football season.
The two-time Monroe County league all-star lineman also cleared a path for himself toward an Ivy League edcuation.
Graen, a three-year starter for Pittsford, has a verbal commitment to play at Princeton University in New Jersey. Listed at 6-feet-2 inches and 270 pounds, Graen played at center.
Pittsford football coach Keith Molinich said that Graen, a 95-average student, also considered attending and playing at Yale, Cornell and Dartmouth.
Syracuse, State University of New York at Buffalo and Maryland told Graen that he could play at their schools as a preferred walk-on, according to Molinich.

Fighter planes and bombers from the World War II era are scarce. There are less than a dozen B-17s still flying and only two B-24s. However, two of those iconic machines can be seen at The Frontiers of Flight Museum across from Love Field as part of The National Wings of Freedom Tour.
The B-24 Liberator on display happened to have been built in Fort Worth.
"Just amazing, the history of the planes and the people giving their lives to fight for our country and our freedom it's just a great thing to come and see it," said Julie Flandorfer. "It's amazing they're still flying."
The latest news from around North Texas.
The Flandorfer family, from Dallas, joined others who got a kick out of climbing up, in and around the majestic World War II bombers.
"It's just cool to see the history," said Eric Flandorfer, spending part of his 50th birthday checking out the planes with his wife and two kids.
"These guys do a lot of work maintaining the planes keeping them flying so who knows how much longer they're going to be around flying so you got to come see them" Flandorfer said.
We didn't see any members of the Greatest Generation on this cloudy and somewhat blustery Sunday. But the president of the Frontiers of Flight Museum said there have been some out here during the four-day exhibit that ended Sunday.
"I heard a veteran yesterday as the planes were cranking up, he said, 'Listen, listen, that's exactly what it sounded like.' That took him back decades," said Cheryl Sutterfield-Jones. "That's a piece of history that won't be here very long and that we need to capture and carry on."
Members of a much younger generation weren't hard to impress. Friends Jackson and Roman, 7 and 8-years-old, had plenty to say about their tour of the B-24 Liberator.
"They plane is awesome. You get to go in the bomb bay. And it's fun. And you get to see the bombs in the back. Yeah," the boys shouted simultaneously.
A fighter plane, the P-51 Mustang, was the fastest fighter plane before the jet era. A non-profit out of Massachusetts called the Collings Foundation restores, maintains and keeps these planes in the air going city-to-city 11 months out of the year.
This was the 10th time in 25 years the Wings of Freedom exhibit came to the Frontiers of Flight Museum.

Well this year has certainly seen it's fair share of rain, several records have been broken for the appalling summer we've just had, not that you would particularly notice that it's over, seeing as it's no wetter now than it was in June! This has had such an effect on what people have been doing, not least the festivals, many of them were rained off this year and those which did go ahead were a total mud bath. I've been to Glastonbury Festival before when the heavens opened a week or so before it started and then continued throughout the festival, it was a wash out, certain areas of Worthy Farm were completely flooded, tents and all. You couldn't even sit down to watch a band, so the whole event was pretty exhausting too.
That got me to thinking about how Brothers Cider are getting on this year. The apple crop has been dismal from the UK. This is because the honey bees were unable to fly while the blossom was out, either because of rain, high winds, cold or all three, so as a result the trees were poorly pollinated and had low yields. There are a few beehives close to me and the only apple trees which I've seen with decent crops are very close to the hives. I assume this is because in the short breaks in the rain the bees were able to fly out and do their job, but couldn't reach the trees further away.
All that being said, I suppose there are a few industries which did quite well out of it, umbrella and welly boot manufacturers for example.
So here's to hoping for a better summer next year, with a bit of luck, the music festivals will all go ahead, so we can get back to the days of sitting out on the grass listening to some live music again.

Queen Latifah to Host Grammy Awards
Plus: Jefferson Airplane drummer dies, Spielberg eyes Abe, and more
NAMED: Queen Latifah will host the 47th Annual Grammy Awards, to air live Feb. 13 on CBS from L.A. s Staples Center, the Recording Academy has announced. The Chicago and Bringing Down the House star (real name: Dana Owens) is up for a best jazz vocal Grammy this year for The Dana Owens Album. Latifah also will perform on the show.
DIED: Jefferson Airplane drummer Spencer Dryden has died of cancer at the age of 66, the Associated Press reports. The musician, who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 for his work with the legendary band, retired from performing 10 years ago. He was part of the band during its heyday and had an affair with lead singer Grace Slick. A benefit concert last year featuring Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead raised $36,000 for Dryden, who was in the middle of two hip replacement surgeries and was facing heart surgery at the time. His home and all his possessions had been destroyed in a fire in September 2003. He also had been diagnosed with stomach cancer. Dryden was married three times and is survived by three sons: Jeffrey, Jes and Jackson Dryden. Plans for a memorial concert are pending.
NOMINATED: The new hit shows Desperate Housewives and Lost both received nominations from the Directors Guild of America Wednesday. J.J. Abrams, known for his work producing Felicity and Alias, was nominated for the pilot episode of Lost, about airplane crash survivors stranded on a mysterious island. Other shows whose directors were nominated include Curb Your Enthusiasm, Sex and the City, ER, Deadwood and The Sopranos. Winners will be announced at the 57th annual awards presentation Jan. 29.
DECIDED: In a decision that's considered a victory for the news media and the prosecution, Judge Rodney Melville ruled Wednesday that a hearing about allegations of past sexual misconduct by Michael Jackson will not be held behind closed doors and will be scheduled once the jury is selected, the Associated Press reports. Pretrial hearings have been set for Jan. 21 and Jan. 27 to consider whether a child-abuse expert can testify and such other issues as the questionnaire to be given to jurors and other motions on admission of evidence.
BOOKED: R&B star D'Angelo (real name: Michael Eugene Archer) was charged with drunken driving and drug possession after a traffic stop Sunday, police in suburban Richmond, Va., tell AP. A search of his vehicle turned up "what we believe to be cocaine and marijuana," said Chesterfield police Capt. Karl Leonard, adding that the substances will be analyzed. The Grammy winner is due in court Tuesday.
PLANNED: Steven Spielberg has his sights set on bringing a biography of the 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, to the screen, possibly starring his Schindler's List hero (and current star of Kinsey), Irish actor Liam Neeson, reports Variety. Spielberg has wanted to do a Lincoln bio since 2001 and hopes to start filming in one year. A controversial new book, The Intimate World of Abraham Lincoln, by sex researcher C.A. Tripp, makes the case that Honest Abe wasn't terribly honest in his marriage to Mary Todd Lincoln, and was gay. Historians such as Doris Kearns Goodwin, on whose book Spielberg's film was to be based, dispute the notion.
OFFERED: Celine Dion will donate all the proceeds of a special May 8 Mother's Day performance of her Las Vegas show to the victims of the tsunami disaster and expects to raise a minimum of $1 million for UNICEF. In addition to the show, special UNICEF pledge boxes will be placed throughout the Colosseum at the Caesars Palace hotel-casino.
ANNOUNCED: My Life, the best-selling 957-page memoir of former President Clinton, will be released in paperback in May, featuring some additional material and a format that divides the epic-length work into two, says Clinton's publisher, Alfred A. Knopf. Clinton's representative, Washington, D.C., attorney Robert Barnett, tells AP that the new content has yet to be determined. "There might be a new chapter or a new foreword," he said.
SUED: Fight promoter Don King has sued sports channel ESPN, its parent company and its outlets for $2.5 billion, reports Reuters. The eight-page legal filing says that a May 14, 2004, showing of ESPN's biography segment on King defamed the boxing promoter and strung together false statements that "intentionally and recklessly portrayed Don King in a false light." ESPN spokesman Mike Soltys said the cable network had not yet seen the lawsuit and could not comment on it, but he defended the biography series.

Lesson Plan
Investigating the Holocaust: A Collaborative Inquiry Project
|6 – 8
|Lesson Plan Type
|Estimated Time
|Eight 50-minute sessions
|Lesson Author
La Crosse, Wisconsin
In this unit, students explore a variety of resourcestexts, images, sounds, photos, and other artifactsto learn more about the Holocaust. Beginning with journal writings and a picture book to introduce the central issues, the unit focuses on student-centered inquiry. Students explore a range of print and non-print resources through extensive online inquiry activities. Progressing from individual work to a group learning project, the unit culminates in publishing the group's findings in topic-based newspapers.
The lesson includes complete lists of picture books, read-aloud books, reference texts, and online sites and collections that allow teachers to customize the activities to fit the available resources and students' specific research interests.
Text Resources for Holocaust Group Project: This list of resources will assist students in researching the Holocaust.
Holocaust Online Inquiry: This online resource provides links to Internet resources related to the Holocaust. Each resource also includes a related student activity.
Recommended Holocaust Read-Aloud Texts: This sheet provides a list of books related to the Holocaust. Included are picture books, as well as novels, nonfiction, memoirs, and more.
This Holocaust inquiry project is based on the idea that as students progress though the inquiry cycle, teachers need to tap a variety of methods to reach all the different learners and their multiple ways of learning about the world. As Harste explains, "we must envision and create curriculum that places inquiry and sign systems . . . at the center of the learning process, rather than in the peripheral position of curricular frills" (3). By asking students to explore texts, images, sounds, photos, and other artifacts, this inquiry project provides students the kind of learning opportunity that leads to more complex literacy skills.

The Feloran bromeliad was a plant native to Bajor.
Vedek Bareil Antos told Commander Benjamin Sisko when he met him first in the garden of the Bajoran monastery in 2369 that he had no other ambitions than growing the most lovely Feloran bromeliads on the planet when he started his duty as a gardener at the Bajoran monastery after the Occupation of Bajor.

Living with HIV in Eastern Europe and CIS
The human cost of social exclusion
The report draws on data from an innovative six-country research study conducted by UNDP together with Oxford University researchers and local social research institutes and organisations of people living with HIV that looked at exclusion in the health, education and employment sectors from the point of view of people living with HIV. The report also consults the views of people representing institutions in three key sectors that, where not properly addressed, generate much of the vulnerability that people living with HIV face on a daily basis: health care (doctors, nurses and other staff), education (administrators and teachers) and the workplace (employers and co-workers). Together, these sources provide comprehensive insights into the HIV challenges faced in the region, and the need for state responses to address these issues.

Michael Marin could be seen putting something in his mouth after he was found guilty in an Arizona courtroom, NBC's Thomas Roberts reported for TODAY earlier this month.
An autopsy report confirmed Friday that Michael Marin, the former Wall Street trader who collapsed and died in court minutes after he was convicted of arson last month, committed suicide by taking cyanide.
Authorities immediately suspected that Marin, 53, killed himself June 28 in Maricopa County Superior Court in Phoenix by swallowing a homemade cyanide pill.
Marin had just been convicted of burning down his mansion in 2009 when he went into convulsions at the defendant's table. He was declared dead at the scene.
The autopsy confirmed that Marin died of cyanide poisoning, The Associated Press reported.
Marin was often described as a larger-than-life figure. He made a fortune on Wall Street, flew his own planes, held a law degree from Yale University and climbed Mount Everest.
But he had retired from finance several years ago and was no longer able to keep up with his $17,250-a-month mortgage payments, prosecutors said. So he burned down his home, on which he owed $2.3 million, and made headlines by escaping from a second-floor window in scuba gear.
Stay informed with the latest headlines; sign up for our newsletter
After Marin's death, police found a canister of cyanide in his car, along with a note to his son saying his will was up to date and in place.
James Dearing, medical director at John C. Lincoln Medical Centers in Phoenix, said cyanide poisoning was an especially unpleasant but highly effective way to kill oneself.
"It's a very fast-acting chemical that comes in gas or crystal form," Dearing told NBC station KPNX of Phoenix. "What this chemical does is it prevents oxygen from leaving the blood and going into the cells, so the cells will die."

A column about teaching
Ducking Under the Caution Tape: Approachable Poems
January 30, 2012By Shannon Reed
Before I began teaching, I had assumed that the many stories I had heard about how students don't like poetry were just myths. After all, I liked (some) poetry, so why wouldn't my students like (some) poetry? But unlike nearly every other myth I've dismissed in my time as a teacher, the one about poetry proved to be true: Nothing makes my students whine more than being handed a poem. Continue reading...

Abstract: Without the explanatory power of general theoretical principles, criminal justice educators are limited to subjectively describing the structure and function of our systems of criminal justice rather than explaining why these systems behave the way they do. Because of this, criminal justice lacks integrity as a legitimate academic discipline that seeks to meet the objectives of a liberal arts education. This paper explores the establishment of ideology as a first principle of criminal justice, derived from political philosophy and sociological theory. We examine ways to build upon this principle as a means of teaching criminal justice within the guise of the liberal arts tradition by guiding students toward a deeper understanding of the nature of our criminal justice systems and their place in larger society.

DETROIT—Riet Schumack has lived in the Detroit area since 1991. In 2006 she and her husband Mark, an engineering professor at the University of Detroit-Mercy, moved to Brightmoor, a four-square-mile, hard-pressed neighborhood on the city's northwest side. Some people call it Blightmoor.
The Schumacks for years had prayed for an opportunity to do urban gardening and be a good influence in Brightmoor. They bought their home from a woman fleeing the neighborhood after seeing her house broken into three times. It's now worth much less than what they've put into it, but they're not running. After police closed a drug and prostitution house down the street, the Schumacks bought it and fixed it up for about $50,000. It's now appraised for about $20,000—not very smart investing if making money (or even treading water) is the goal.
That didn't keep them from doubling-down on the neighborhood. They recently bought three small houses across the street for a total of $15,000: a good deal, maybe, although market value is hard to judge. The seller had them priced at $75,000 two years ago and $45,000 last year. Riet Schumack shrugs off questions about the long-term investment value of the properties: "We're all in," she says, describing their commitment to the neighborhood. She noted an upside: They bought the houses before "the scrappers" had stripped out the copper pipes and wiring to sell as scrap.
I first visited Brightmoor three years ago ("Beyond 'ruin porn,'" March 27, 2010). Like Detroit overall, it has lost close to one-third of its population since 2000. Some people left because they couldn't afford $5,000 to replace deteriorating sewer lines. Others had enough of crime, poor city services, and bad schools. Three out of five Brightmoor lots are now vacant.
Yet, hope floats in a 21-block micro-neighborhood called Brightmoor Farmway, with neighbors pursuing a person-by-person, block-by-block strategy, and embracing Detroit's "post-apocalyptic" possibilities, when city government no longer provides services. On one block, raised-bed gardens stretch out over 10 lots—about an acre. The land belongs to a young man who hopes to make a living growing high-end organic vegetables for local restaurants. On another, blackboard paint covers the exterior of a boarded-up house, providing a clever way to announce neighborhood events.
Other art-covered, vacant and boarded-up houses throughout the Farmway sport flowers and trains, sunsets, and Dr. Seuss–like trees. Some carry slogans along with artwork: "God Makes Beautiful Things Out of Us," and "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not." That slogan, painted on boards covering the windows of an abandoned school, sums up the neighborhood doctrine.
Brightmoor Farmway started informally with several families working together on a "youth garden" down the street from the Schumacks' house. After several years, those families started a nonprofit organization, Neighbors Building Brightmoor (NBB), to continue the work they were already doing—building gardens, making friends, and keeping blight at bay. In 2010, 12 families decided to hold a neighborhood Harvest Fest, and 200 people showed up. About 150—half of them children—came from the 21-block area.
The existence of so many children surprised neighbors because they rarely saw them playing outside. Schumack speaks of children who sit "inside a house watching TV or playing video games, because out there it's dangerous and ugly and nasty, and they grow up not knowing what beauty is. … That's to me the worst of everything. … I can't live with that."
Creating a safe environment for children became an NBB goal. By removing exterior walls and leaving interior walls and the roof, volunteers turned a debris-filled vacant house into a children's playhouse. Located next to a neighborhood pocket park redeemed from the ruins, the playhouse boasts a small stage for musical performances and plays. In the summertime children roast marshmallows over a fire pit and chase fireflies under the trees. NBB put on potlucks, sponsored petting zoos, cleaned up a field for ultimate frisbee, and led nature walks.
Efforts snowballed as more neighbors caught the vision. Over the past three years, gardens and pocket parks have sprouted throughout the 21-block area. Each garden or cleaned-up lot announces that someone—Scott, Wayne, Old Dude, Nikki, Kat, Kenny, Jess, Jeremy, Craig, Ray—has agreed to care for that site. "You can board a place up," Schumack says, "but if there's no one to sponsor it, it will just look a mess."
She points to a stretch of unkempt houses, some owned by residents and others occupied by tenants who have shown little interest in the neighborhood. If they aren't interested in cleaning up their own yards, NBB refuses to do it for them. Schumack says, "You have to become involved. … It's Neighbors Building Brightmoor. Neighbors helping neighbors. There is no service industry here."
Outside the Farmway, traditional neighborhood revitalization efforts can't seem to halt Brightmoor's downward spiral. John O'Brien heads up Northwest Detroit Neighborhood Development (NDND), which since its founding in 1989 has built 231 new rental houses and renovated a 23-unit apartment building. Money came from the Low Income Tax Credit program (LITC), a government-funded program that subsidizes rents for people within certain income guidelines. NDND, hoping construction would stabilize the neighborhood, also built or renovated 126 homes for purchase by people who qualify under another government program.
Those efforts largely failed. Timing was part of the problem: The subprime and foreclosure crisis hit Detroit hard. Today, at least one of the NDND houses built fewer than 10 years ago sits boarded up. Listed at $70,000 to $80,000 in 2008, it is now worth less than $20,000. Under the terms of the government program that funded construction, the house had to be sold, not rented, so it ended up with boards over the windows and door. "An embarrassment," O'Brien said.
O'Brien still says stabilizing the neighborhood depends on construction of new housing with funds from outside, but the latest citywide long-range plan, "Detroit Works," which came out in early January, makes new funding seem unlikely. A video made by the Federal Reserve at the beginning of the Detroit Works process argued for government and private foundations to align their goals and direct money into healthier neighborhoods, while letting less healthy ones go. Brightmoor, it said, was too far gone to save.
The final document softened those recommendations, but if planners have their way, Brightmoor will receive even less in city services. The city can't afford to keep up fire, sewer, garbage, street lights, and snow removal in such sparsely populated areas. Already the neighborhood feels the effect: The city still provides police, but the fire station closed. Street lights work, but no inspectors come to check on them, so burned-out bulbs don't get fixed unless neighbors make a fuss. The day I visited, several inches of frozen snow covered unplowed streets.
Schumack is a realist: "If it were up to the city, they would get us all out of here tomorrow." In the meantime, she says, her neighbors view themselves as a demonstration project for post-apocalyptic living. Wood-burning stoves and composting toilets are in. Some, like the Schumacks, keep bees and raise goats, chickens, and rabbits. Neighbors support themselves with market gardens, watered by rainwater catch systems: If gas prices keep going up, they think their vegetables might be able to compete with produce shipped from across the country.
Neighbors are also using hoop houses, a kind of low-tech portable greenhouse, to extend the growing season. Some are looking into rocket mass heaters, a super-efficient, wood-burning heat system. Is this experimentation strictly legal? Detroit zoning laws don't permit farming, but that could soon change. Chickens, rabbits, and bees will be in, but goats will still be out. Schumack says an unwritten rule guides interactions between the city and the Farmway: "The city ignores us, both negatively and positively. They don't want to say, 'No, you can't do that.' So they smile and say, 'Don't tell us anything. … We're not asking anyone anything.' We're just doing it."
Brightmoor resident Katharina Walsh, who trains teens to create murals on boarded-up houses and to translate the ideas of younger children into house-sized art, meets with neighbors to hear what kind of art they'd like on nearby houses. She doesn't seek approval from city hall: "We don't have time to follow regulations. … If landlords have a problem, I don't have a problem telling them their priorities are out of line."
Schumack and some of the people moving into the neighborhood are Christians, as are many long-term residents, but the philosophy guiding development in the Farmway depends on sight, not faith: "Hope comes from highly visible and short-term evidence of renewal." The names of local gardens reflect big concepts like "neighborhood empowerment" and "individual initiative": Myra's Bird Haven and River Trail, Miss Gwen's Edible Play-scape, Char's Butterfly Trail, a Community Pumpkin Patch, Pingree's Community Potato Patch, and others.
Schumack says residents have lots of practical skills to share. "I'm in awe of what I see here. Miss Gwen is my greatest example." When a foundation turned down Miss Gwen's grant request, the long-time resident said no worries, she'd raise the money herself. She and a friend held two fish fries and made $1,000. Schumack admires her neighbors for being "hustlers" who "make do with what you got. [That's] what it takes to live in a neighborhood like this one—and it might be what it takes to live in a future world."
Businesses are starting up: A neighbor with woodworking skills employs local teens to make carved and painted wooden signs and wooden benches adorning some of the Farmway's "50 parks, gardens, and places of interest." Once neighbors decide what they want to do, plenty of outside groups help with small amounts of money and time. In 2011, volunteers (1,400!) contributed 16,000 or so hours of labor. They helped NBB maintain 125 lots, grow more than 5,000 pounds of produce, employ almost 60 teens, and reach nearly 400 children.
The NBB 2011 annual report declares, "There is no short cut! Keep at it. You can't restore instantly what was destroyed over 30 years of decline." That tortoise-like approach has drawn media and foundation attention. The Marjorie Fisher Foundation funded construction of a Kaboom! orange-and-green playscape designed with input from the community and built by 250 residents and volunteers. Nearby is a fitness course and picnic area. A wooden sign built by local teens announces the Eliza Howell Nature Trail, a wood-chip path built by volunteers that begins at the playground and travels for a mile along the Rouge River.
A year and a half after installation, the playground still sports no graffiti, one evidence of neighborhood pride and ownership. In a video made on playground construction day, a young black woman said to the camera: "This is our park. … We're not going to let anyone sit here and mess it up. Because I'm right here. I'm watching."
As I sat in Schumack's van admiring the playground, a truck pulled up to the curb a few houses behind us. Schumack watched out of her rearview mirror, "Oh, no, oh, no. Scrappers. We chased them from our street yesterday." She grabbed her phone and punched in a number. (She has all NBB members' numbers in her phone.) Then she jammed her van into reverse.
One of the scrappers sat in the truck and the other disappeared into a vacant house. He reappeared carrying a door. Schumack jumped out of the car: "Put it back. We don't want scrappers in this neighborhood. … We're going to start calling the police." The scrappers insisted they had permission to take the door. They threw insults, but eventually backed down and returned the door. Then they drove off.
Schumack said, "Every day we chase them away from somewhere. Five times in the last two months. They make messes. … They open houses up, dump over garbage cans. … Once it's a mess, that's a signal to other people to come. … You got to be vigilant."

Working for Voter Participation in Maine
What's new in the fight for voter participation in Maine.
Recent Developments
Opposing Photographic ID to Vote
In order to register, all Maine voters must swear that they meet the conditions for voter eligibility:
- Resident of the State of Maine
- Citizen of the United States
- 18 years old on Election Day
LWVME opposes additional measures to require voters to present valid photographic ID each time they vote. Here's why:
It could disenfranchise voters: Anywhere between 5% and 16% of our eligible voters do not have the required ID. Percentages are higher among the elderly, ethnic minorities, and low income voters, and these are the same groups who have traditionally faced barriers at the polls.
It's equivalent to a poll tax: The cost of obtaining a driver's license or state-issued ID in Maine may seem modest, but the expense and complexity of the process present real barriers to voting when one considers the time off from work and the travel to obtain them, especially for the elderly or disabled. This has real consequences.
Voter participation will fall: A GAO study concluded that voter participation fell between 2% and 3% in states implementing photo ID between the presidential election years 2008 and 2012. That could be twenty thousand voters in Maine's next presidential election. Many, many times more eligible voters will be dissuaded from voting by this law than the number of ineligible voters who will be prevented from casting votes.
It will be expensive: Implementation of voter photo ID laws in other states has cost millions of dollars. Although some photo ID laws have passed constitutional muster, these laws are still subject to constitutional challenge if particular groups or individuals are burdened by the law.
Legal challenges: In addition to the cost of offering free identification cards, other states have faced legal challenges if they did not also take other measures.
Commission on to Study the Conduct of Elections in Maine
On February 5, 2013, the Commission to Study the Conduct of Elections in Maine released the report of its findings, and we're excited for a whole host of reasons. The Commission not only rejected voter ID, it also endorsed same-day voter registration and early voting! You can read the full report here.
Eight public hearings were held from August through November and members of the League of Women Voters attended every single one of them. Over and over again, Maine voters testified in opposition to voter ID and in support of same day voter registration and early voting. We worked tirelessly to publicize the hearings in local communities, and you responded.
As exciting as this news is, however, we do not agree with everything in the report, including a recommendation to tighten residency requirements for voting. This could discourage young people who attend college here from voting, and it continues a recent trend of attacks on student voting rights. We will work to forestall these proposals.
But we do want to see true early voting become the law in Maine, and it could happen this legislative session with your help. A constitutional amendment has been proposed that would allow early voting, and the League of Women Voters will be working with coalition partners to make it happen.

Blair Waldorf: When Will You Realize Chuck Is A Changed Man?
Blair once again refuses to acknowledge a good thing when it comes along. Why is it so difficult for her to realize that Chuck is different now? He's a changed man for crying out loud!
I shamelessly admit that when Dan (Penn Badgley) took Blair (Leighton Meester) to the steps of the Met on the April 9 episode of Gossip Girl to fulfill her dream of being a princess– it was pretty darn cute. During that moment in time, for one tiny second, I thought Dan and Blair are kind of cute together.
But it didn't take long before I quickly snapped back to reality and came to my senses. Blair wouldn't have even had the chance to kiss Dan on the steps of the Met if it weren't for CHUCK (Ed Westwick)!
So while Dan's gesture was cute, charming or whatever you want to call it — Chuck's gesture of paying Blair's dowry was far more meaningful. So where was Chuck's kiss on the steps of the Met, Blair? Or for the very least — where was his "thank you"?
Instead of being appreciative, Blair got mad at Chuck and accused him of pay her dowry from Prince Louis (Hugo Becker) to win her heart back, but that wasn't the case — at all. Like Chuck said, he just wanted Blair to be free from the evil prince. He didn't have any ulterior motives behind paying her dowry.
WHY is it SO difficult for Blair to realize that Chuck isn't the same scheming man he was at Constance? Especially considering that Blair hasn't always been an angel herself.
Blair used to be quite devious back in her Constance days. With that being said, you would think Blair would be totally understanding and believe Chuck when he says he's a changed man. Right?
Blair really needs to shape up and accept Chuck for who he is now: a changed, good-hearted man. He really is just looking out for Blair's best interest.
Blair may not be in love with Chuck at the moment, (I'm convinced this is just a phase for B) but the least she could do is thank him for freeing her and lend him a helping hand when he needs it — like he did last night.
What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Are you sick of Blair's selfish ways? Vote and weigh in below.

Dr. Malanuk discusses Heart Attacks on WLTX
West Columbia, SC (WLTX)- According to the American Heart Association, 715,000 people in the United States will have a heart attack this year.
"It is the leading cause of death in America, heart attacks are number one, and if you combine all of the other risk of death they still don't equal heart disease," said Dr. Robert Malanuk.
Dr. Malanuk is a cardiologist at Lexington Medical Center, he spends his days and nights repairing hearts at the hospital.
"If you are smoking, not paying attention to your high blood pressure and if your weight is out of control, it is a matter of when you are going to have a heart attack because one in two American's will be affected by heart disease."
If you find yourself needing to help a heart attack patient, know you are working against a ticking time bomb.
"Take an asprin immediately and chew it up," said Dr. Malanuk. "Secondly, call 911 and don't delay. The earlier you can get to the emergency room, the better it is going to be for you."
Some signs of a heart attack are the following symptoms: Chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath and nausea.
Robert Malanuk, MD, FACC, is a cardiologist with Lexington Cardiology.

On the US Ebay there is a very nice looking K100RS right now. The "buy it now" price is very attractive. If I didn't have a nice one in the garage at the moment, I'd sure be looking at this one myself.
On the US Ebay there is a very nice looking K100RS right now. The "buy it now" price is very attractive. If I didn't have a nice one in the garage at the moment, I'd sure be looking at this one myself.
I've never had a K100RS. Neither has Voni. She jumped from a K75 to an R1100RS.
But between us we can't not have a K75. Right now there are three right outside the door and a 4th in Kansas. Total I think we have had eight. Every time either of us is without one we seem to need to find one.
Folks who liked the K100 as well as we liked K75s back in their day will still like them just as well today. Folks who thought they were too hot or top heavy or whatever will find them the same today, I suppose.
Since I'm a sit-up-and-beg type rider I have always liked the tall bar K75s. Did then. Still do. I would sell any/all of my bikes before I would sell the K75 I bought last year from Marilyn Roberts.

Now that is an endorsement, from a person that knows bikes. I feel real good about my 85 K100RS.
Milo, I went back and had another look. You're correct. No "buy it now" price. It may have been changed by the owner, or I had a Senior Moment.
Naw.... not me. Not the kid!
8-Valve K-Bikes can be had for ridiculously little money, and 16-Valves for little more.
I still have my hot-rod '86 K100RS. It's so much lighter than the later bikes that it feels like a bicycle by comparison, and it still makes me smile.
Love my 1990 k75 standard converted from parking lot tip overRT. Yesterday I picked up a 1987K100rt with28773 on the clock.Always garaged but sitting dormant for 13 years.Can you say toxic sludge in gas tank. I couldn't find a post on easiest way to remove it.If some pne has alink I'd appreciate it.Has anyone used the Euro Motoreletrics total fuel tank pars kit for $360?Thanks in advance.I'm going to make a stab at doing all of my maintainance on my K bikes from here on out.
I imagine that there's probably a great solvent that can be used to clean out your tank with and hopefully someone will chime in with the right answer specifically. Maybe acetone or mineral spirits? Both are available by the gallon at big box stores.
You will need to remove the tank and really check it thoroughly for other problems such as pinhole leaks along the bottom-most areas where water may have collected over the years, too.
My fuel pump and damper was still OK when I found some pinholes/corrosion in mine; I used Fast Steel epoxy putty from Home Depot to fix it for good. $5 and easy fix should you also encounter that problem as well.
I can recommend EuroMoto Electrics highly; their prices and service ABSOLUTELY ROCK!
Good luck on reinvigorating your new "old girl!"
