If your roof is not a candidate for patch up roof repairs, a completely roof replacement or roof coating may be your only options. Sometimes a full commercial roof replacement is required in order to fix the primary problems causing an old or storm damaged flat roof to leak. A full replacement may be required depending on (1) storm damage (2) the age of your roof or (3) severe leaks or structural damage

PVC is a form of dense plastic with excellent tensile strength. It has been used as a commercial roofing material for more than 50 years and is considered one of the finest roofing materials for flat and low-sloped roofs.
The roofing option has become increasingly popular in the last few years due to its performance, reliability, and longevity. PVC roofs have a breaking strength of about 350 pounds per inch which is way above the recommended 200 pounds per inch.
In addition, PVC roofs have heat-welded seams that are stronger than the membrane itself, which means they don't have to rely on adhesive sealants, caulks and tapes to create a waterproof joint like other types of roofs.
Thanks to their strongly welded seams PVC roofs are resistant to wind, water, and bacteria making them ideal for commercial roofs.
PVC roofing systems are designed to provide longevity by protecting against harsh elements that can easily destroy other roofing types. PVC roofing membranes have a high chlorine content (56.8%) which makes it resistant to ignition and burning.
If properly installed, high-quality PVC roofing systems can last up to 20 years with minimal repairs during their service life. The most important factor in preserving your PVC roof life is correct drainage. This involves preventing ponding water which a common issue when it comes to flat roofs.
PVC roofs are resistance to chemicals which also makes them ideal for commercial buildings and manufacturing facilities. Another advantage that comes with PVC roofing is reduced energy costs. The membrane's high-reflective nature reduces energy waste, lowering your heating and cooling costs.

Up to 50% Cheaper Than A Full Roof Replacement
Restoring your roof with a roof coating can save you up to 50%
Save on labor costs without having to remove your previous roof!
A roof coating can be applied over top of your current roof!
Federal tax rebates & tax credits
Roof coatings can potentially earn you a federal tax credit
Lower your utility bills
Roof coatings are engineered with reflective properties to 'reflect' heat from your building, meaning that it can help keep your building cooler without having cold air escaping during the hotter months! These savings can add up!
Made for the elements
Roof coatings are designed to hold up to Mother Nature. What does this mean for you? The more durable your roof is, the less you have to worry about your roof leaking & having to consistently repair your roof after each significant storm.
How long does it take to replace a commercial roof?
The answer of how long it will take to install your new commercial roof depends on a handful of actors. One of the largest factors is the size of your roof. The larger your roof, the more materials and labor will be required for your replacement, thus requiring a longer installation timeline. Another factor is the type of roof that you have. Does your commercial roof have multiple layers that have to be removed? Other factors are also important, such as what material are you replacing your roof with, what is the scope of the project, etc. Weather is also a factor as sometimes a roof replacement has to be pushed back if inclement weather or rain could impact the roof installation process.
What is the lifespan for a commercial roof?
The lifespan of your new commercial roof can depend on the type of roofing system and material that you have installed. Your roof's lifecycle can also be heavily influenced by local climate and weather. For instance, if several years after your roof is installed there is a massive hail storm, or a hurricane, this can significantly weaken or damage your commercial roof. Other factors also influence the life of your roof, such as the roofing contractor's craftsmanship, and whether or not they adhere to all proper code regulations and manufacturer specifications. Certain roof coatings can have a warranty up to 20-years!
How do I know when it is time to replace my commercial roof?
Not all roofs need to be replaced. Your roof may be a candidate for roof restoration via roof coatings, or roof repairs. However, if your roof is aging, and breaking down from wear and tear, then it may need to be fully replaced. The older a roof ages, it becomes vulnerable to future storm damage. If our technicians are not confident that a roof repair will extend the life of your roof for a reasonable length of time, a full roof replacement may be the only option.
I think I may have storm damage, what should I do?
Our technicians are specialists in identifying flat roof storm damage from both wind and hail damage. Our reps can help you diagnose if those pesky leaks coming into your building are stemming from storm damage, or age. If your roof is suffering from storm damage, we can help pin-point where those leaks are coming from & discuss your options with you if an insurance claim may make sense depending on the extent of the damage.
What should I be looking for in a commercial roofing company?
Your commercial roof is a complex system. It is a valuable investment, and you want a contractor you can rely on. There's a few important things to take into consideration: do they have glowing customer references that can vouch for their work, how much experience do they have in the Missouri market, what warranty do they offer, what is the price of their bid, what is the quality of the materials proposed. All of these points should be factored together. While price is a very large point of consideration when hiring a contractor, price should not be the only consideration. The cheapest option may not be the best option, and long-term could end up being the most expensive option if the roof is improperly installed. Quality and reliability of the contractor should be heavily weighed.
Should I restore or replace my commercial roof?
Not every single low slope, metal roof or commercial flat roof is going to require a full roof replacement - and at the same time, not every commercial roof is going to be a candidate for roof restoration. It can be case by case. Roof coatings can provide tremendous financial savings when compared to a traditional full roof replacement. A roof coating can extend the life of your existing roof without needing to tear off your existing roof, and is much less disruptive. Roof coatings can provide superior waterproofing, financial savings, and even tax credits. After completing a thorough roof inspection, we can discuss whether your roof is a candidate for roof coatings.

High-speed, long-length interface standard supported in latest OPAL series cameras
Eindhoven, The Netherlands, March 14, 2011. Adimec (http://www.adimec.com/), a world leader in application-specific, leading-edge industrial camera solutions, is the first supplier to offer production-ready cameras for use with the recently-ratified CoaXPress interface standard. The company joins several other suppliers of machine vision and imaging equipment in offering solutions for the high-speed, long transmission length capabilities of the new standard.
The CoaXPress standard has been hosted by The Japan Industrial Imaging Association (JIIA), and Version 1.0 of its specification received overwhelming approval by the initiative's Working Group and Liaison Group at ITE 2010 in Yokohama, Japan. It is expected that the other two major industrial vision associations, AIA in North America and EMVA in Europe, will announce their support of CoaXPress at the Automate 2011 event, giving it a global stamp of approval.
Adimec's (Booth#324) CoaXPress-compliant OPAL Series cameras will be demonstrated at Automate 2011 (March 21-24 in Chicago, Ill.), working in conjunction with frame grabbers from Bitflow, Inc. (Booth #1027), Aval Data, and Active Silicon (Booth #740).
"We are pleased to see the continued momentum behind CoaXPress, including the rapid emergence of commercial products based on the standard. As a camera supplier with a strategy of offering market-driven solutions, it is important that a strong ecosystem of support is available for CoaXPress as the specification is ratified and accepted by the major industry organizations," said Joost van Kuijk, Vice President Marketing and Technology, at Adimec. "Our OPAL series of cameras is the industry's first to offer support for CoaXPress, giving system developers more options for high-speed, long-length implementations of machine vision products. Our support for CoaXPress underscores our commitment to deliver flexible solutions for a wide variety of system requirements, from performance to cost to connectivity needs in any kind of environment."
CoaXPress is a digital interface specification that allows the transmission of high speed data from a device, for example a camera, to a host such as a frame grabber in a PC, at a high speed of up to 6.25Gbps over a single coax cable. The device need not be a single camera - it could, for example, be an interface device that concatenates data from several cameras - since CoaXPress has the ability to carry many channels of image data and meta-data. For communication from host to device, there is a 20Mbps "uplink" that allows for control and configuration data. For even higher speeds, links may be concatenated to provide multiples of the single coax bandwidth. Finally there is also power provided over the cable at 24V, up to 13W per cable.
In addition to the simplicity and availability benefits of using coax, CoaXPress works over relatively long cable lengths, depending on the precise cable type - up to 40m at 6.25Gbps and much further at lower speeds.
For more information on Adimec's support of CoaXPress, click here.

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and figure out a way to bail Greece out of bankruptcy. Of course the Greeks went broke. How can you thrive with a fried calamari-based economy? It's simply not realistic. LET'S GO!
DANCING WITH THE STARS – 8:00PM (ABC) Tonight, another contestant is shown the door. But, more important… GIPSY KINGS! AY! AY! AY! Yes, your parents' favorite band to play while they host cocktail parties is here to seduce your ears with their sultry Latin rhythms. One taste of Bambaleo, and you are theirs forever! If I were in a mariachi band, you know what instrument I'd play? The really big guitar. You know the one I'm talking about. It's like a regular guitar, only muy grande! I love that guitar. It goes awesome with a big hat. ANTICIPATION: VOLARE! OH OH! CANTARE! OH OH OH!
THE BIGGEST LOSER – 8:00PM (NBC) Tonight, Tony Romo drops by the fatties to give them words of encouragement. And I am sooo not gonna make a Jessica Simpson joke here. That would be in bad taste. Seriously though, contestants, you better drop that weight quicker or Tony will leave you for a foxy local TV news anchor. ANTICIPATION: OH NO! TONY FUMBLED THE RICE CAKES!
AMERICAN IDOL – 8:00PM (FOX) Tonight, Jamie "Bunz" Foxx drops in to mentor the Idols. His advice is infallible. 1) Always assume people want to hear you sing, because they totally do! 2) Surround yourself with a coterie of 50 unfriendly people at all times! 3) Make ludicrous demands of any nightclub you deign to enter! 4) Coast on your Oscar by making horrible movies and becoming the latter day Cuba Gooding Jr.! Sage wisdom, kids. You'd best follow it. ANTICIPATION: YOU AREN'T RAY CHARLES, BUDDY!
GLEE – 9:00PM (FOX) Tonight, Mike O'Malley guest stars. Because nothing spices up a musical comedy like the dude from "Yes, Dear." Among tonight's musical selections are "Jessie's Girl" (shocked they didn't do this already), U2's "One" (will we see a buffalo run in really slow motion through the school halls?), and "The Boy Is Mine." ANTICIPATION: OH NO THEY DI'N'T!
LOST – 9:00PM (ABC) Tonight's episode is called "Across The Sea." WHAT DOES IT MEAN! Is it a reference to the Weezer song of the same name, off their cult hit CD "Pinkerton"? Does the song "Pink Triangle" also figure into this? Triangle? ARE THEY IN THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE? IS THAT THE ANSWER? What are Locke's real motives? Are Sun and Jin really dead? Or are they just Sideways dead? HOW DO THEY MAKE COTTON BALLS SO FLUFFY? So many questions. ANTICIPATION: GETCHOO! UH HUH!
Tuesday Watch List: Gipsies! Foxxes! Romos!
Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and figure out a way to bail Greece out of bankruptcy. Of course the Greeks went broke. How can you thrive with a fried calamari-based economy? It's simply not realistic. LET'S GO!

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Police say a 52-year-old man shot and killed his longtime friend Monday night during an argument outside a Brierwood apartment.
The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office says 46-year-old Neville Barrett was found dead in the 4700 block of Radcliff Court just after 8 p.m. Officers arrested Aaron Kaiser and charged him with murder.
"These two individuals knew each other over the past 13 years," said Lt. Rob Schoonover. "For whatever reason, they argued all the time. The suspect admitted to the shooting but would not give us a reason why."
Police said they got three 911 calls about a disturbance at the address -- one from Kaiser (pictured, right) himself asking police to come. When officers arrived, they found Barrett dead in the street that runs through the complex, off Old Kings Road South near San Clerc Road.
"We asked what the argument was over, he said he didn't remember and said he argued all the time," Schoonover said.
The victim's son said Barrett (family photo, below) stood in front of his church congregation on Sunday urging them to be ready when death comes.
"It's always a concern when you loose your loved ones," Joshua Steward said of his dad. "It's not just affecting the person who died, it's affecting his wife, kids grandkids and the person who pulled the trigger, (his) wife and grandkids as well."
Steward said nothing could prepare the family for his father's sudden death.
"Anytime you get around him, his No. 1 goal was to make you smile and enjoying life," Steward said.
This was the Jacksonville's fourth homicide so far in 2013, and all have occurred in the past five days. There were 15 homicides in Jacksonville in December.
"The violence has spiked in the last month. I don't have a reason for it," Schoonover said.
Channel 4 crime expert Ken Jefferson says crime seems like it's on the rise because, culturally, far too many people have no regard for another person's life.
"People in the community are concerned, and they have the right to be concerned because the violence is all around them," Jefferson said.
Jefferson said the solution is to bridge the gap between the communities that are grieving and police.
"I understand that you have calls for service and answer those, but you have to go out and meet the people you are serving," Jefferson said.

Depsite the fact that we are introduced to not only a few new characters but also a new location, the episode feels very well paced, mixing a deepening of our understanding of some of the characters with significant advances of the plot.
To some extent, this is done by foregoing two of the previous locations; we do not see either Vaes Dothrak or the Wall in this episode.
We do, however, see plenty of King's Landing. The tourney that began in the last episode reaches its dramatic conclusion, which includes the introduction of the gallant Ser Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers, and a spectacular confrontation. But there is also plenty of politics afoot; Ned tries to learn more about Jon Arryn's demise, the Small Council receives disturbing news that cause a rift between Ned and Robert and certain players of the game worry about the escalating tension between the Starks and the Lannisters.
Part of that tension results from Catelyn having seized Tyrion at the end of the previous episode, though her intentions of taking him to her sister almost spell disaster for them along the road. And once she does reach the Eyrie—which is a very fantastic reimagining of what is described in the books—she finds that her sister Lysa has indeed changed.
This episode also includes a visit to Winterfell where we are served two entirely new scenes; one serves to give some more details about Westeros and to remind us about Catelyn's priorities, the other shows Theon. Quite a lot of Theon, in fact.
And speaking of new scenes, this episode has probably the highest count of them so far. For the most part, they are really enjoyable and feel very much like "deleted scenes from the books". The high point is undoubtedly a brilliant exchange between Varys and Littlefinger, though the scene between Loras and Renly gives a lot of insights into their characters and lays the ground for certain future developments. The low point, for us, is a new scene between Cersei and Robert, though it does mention a certain sister of Ned Stark by name for the first time.
The episode ends in King's Landing as Ned makes a fateful decision and pays dearly for it.

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year! Though I did a lot of cooking and baking the last couple weeks, I didn't get around to posting much since the holidays are always so busy. I wanted to share a bread recipe with you that I made over the holidays. I was lucky to receive a dutch oven for Christmas (thanks Roseann!) and I've already put it to good use baking bread twice. I'm seriously addicted to no-knead dutch oven bread now. This might become a weekly thing since it takes so little time, and it's really nice having fresh homemade bread around.
This recipe is one that my sister shared with me that originally comes from Breadtopia and is called Rick's No-Knead Rye. We made a few small changes to the original recipe. It turned out really well! The crust is nice and chewy from baking in the dutch oven and the inside is a nice soft texture. It's not as airy and light in the middle as some other no-knead bread since it doesn't have as much yeast as other recipes, but this makes it a great choice for sandwiches!
If you haven't made no knead bread before, take a look at my Artichoke and Roasted Garlic Bread Recipe first. I compiled links and information about dutch ovens and other baking options, how steam helps in the baking process, etc.
heaping 1/4 tsp yeast
1 3/4 cups luke warm water
pinch of sugar
1 1/2 cups bread flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup rye flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp caraway seeds
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast with luke warm water and a pinch of sugar. Allow the yeast to proof for 5-10 minutes.
- Add the flours, salt, and caraway seeds. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and formed into a dough.
- Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rise for 12-18 hours on the counter.
- Turn the dough out onto a piece of parchment paper and gently form it into a loaf. Set it aside to rise for another hour or so.
- Place a dutch oven in the oven while it's cold and preheat the oven to 500°F.
- Place the parchment paper and dough into the dutch oven and cover. The parchment paper makes it easy to transfer the dough into the hot dutch oven and it keeps the bread from sticking to the bottom. Bake the bread covered for 30 minutes.
- Then uncover the bread, lower the temperature to 400°F and bake for 15 more minutes.
- Once the bread is done baking, turn the oven off and let the bread sit in the oven an additional 15 minutes. Let cool, and enjoy!

NightHacking Worldwide Event with Brian Goetzsteveonjava | December 11, 2013
On January 16th, I will be holding a worldwide hack day with Brian Goetz and Stuart Marks on Java 8 lambdas. This will be a 3 hour lab on Java 8 lambdas kicked off with a live streamed presentation from Brian Goetz. Brian and Stuart will stay for the duration to answer questions and help with the lab, and we will have other surprises in store for the live stream.
To participate, just sign up on the NightHacking Worldwide site and it will help you find others nearby to self organize. You may find that your local Java User Group is having an event you can join, but if not, grabbing a conference room and hacking with a few of your coworkers is more than enough.
Probably the most important thing is to follow the new NightHacking twitter handle here to get event updates: @_NightHacking
All you need for logistics is a computer to hack on and a good internet connect to watch the stream. If you are hanging with other hackers, having a dedicated machine hooked up to a projector or TV to watch the stream will probably help as well. We will also have a Google Hangout setup if you want to join via webcam, but this is optional.
And registering for the event on the NightHacking Worldwide site is as easy as 1..2..3:
1. Go to the NightHacking Worldwide site, which will show you if there are any events in your location.
2. Click on an existing community and say you are attending.
3. Or start a new community of your own.
It should be an exciting event, and if it is successful we will repeat it with other topics and speakers. If you have questions about event logistics, please reply in the comments below or ask me on twitter (@_NightHacking).

As a young man growing up in Scotland, like many others, I was exposed to Christianity and the symbol of the cross. It was a point of confusion, a mystery at best, and at worst, an object of scorn and disgust. I did not know what it meant or why religious people thought it important, but I knew I wanted nothing to do with it.
Alister McGrath, Professor of theology, ministry, and education at King's College, London, writes: "Just as God has humbled himself in making himself known 'in the humility and shame of the cross,' we must humble ourselves if we are to encounter him. We must humble ourselves by being prepared to be told where to look to find God, rather than trusting in our own insights and speculative abilities. In effect, we are forced to turn our eyes from contemplation of where we would like to see God revealed, and to turn them instead upon a place which is not of our choosing, but which is given to us."(1)
In other words, nothing in history, experience, or knowledge can prepare the world for God's means of drawing near. At the cross, something we are not expecting is revealed, something scandalous unveiled, something we could never have articulated or asked for is given to us. Philip Yancey, the renowned author, offers more on this: "Here at the cross is the man who loves his enemies, the man whose righteousness is greater than that of the Pharisees, who being rich became poor, who gives his robe to those who take his cloak, who prays for those who deceitfully use him. The cross is not a detour or a hurdle on the way to Kingdom, nor is it even the way to the Kingdom; it is the Kingdom come."(2)
Christian or not, I think many of us have significantly distorted ideas about the purpose and meaning of the cross. When many people think of "sin" or the human condition before God, what comes to mind is perhaps something like the image of a child caught with his hands in the cookie jar. Such an image might well be understood as disobedience or maybe even naughtiness, but is it really that important? It is certainly not bad enough to justify extreme reactions. As a result of such a metaphor, our moral reflections on sin tend to foster incredulity or disgust. The response seems totally out of proportion to the offense.
But let us shift the metaphor. Supposing one day you go for a routine medical examination, and they discover you have a deadly virus. You did not do anything. You were not necessarily responsible, but you were exposed, and infected. You feel the injustice of it all, you are afraid, you are angry, but most of all, you are seriously sick. You are dying and you need help.
Whatever the cross and the gospel are about, it is not a slap on the hands for kids refusing to heed the rules of the cookie jar. It is not mere advice to get you to clean up your life and morals. It is not mere ideas to inform you about what it takes to be nice. It is restoration and recreation, a physician's mediation; it is about human flourishing and discovering life.
The cross may seem an extreme and offensive measure to the problem of sin and death and sickness—but what if it is the very cure that is needed? McGrath describes our options at the cross of Christ. "Either God is not present at all in this situation, or else God is present in a remarkable and paradoxical way. To affirm that God is indeed present in this situation is to close the door to one way of thinking about God and to open the way to another—for the cross marks the end of a particularwayof thinking about God."(3) Shockingly, thoroughly, scandalously, the cross depicts a God who throws himself upon sin and sickness to bring the hope of rescue miraculously near.
Some find it shocking, some overwhelming, some almost too good to be true. It is, however, for all.

Bird Mittens
The right mitt was my first attempt at fair isle one and a half years ago. It sucked. The left mitt, which I just finished yesterday, turned out much better. Even stitches, even tension. I blocked the two together and while the right one improved, the difference between them is still noticeable.
Lumpy right mitten on the left, awesome left mitten on the right. (Guess I wasn't paying attention when I put them down to photograph!)
Awesome left mitten on the left, lumpy right mitten on the right.
I have a few dresses to finish today and tomorrow I'll be out and about. Hope you all have a great weekend!
August 11, 2012 12:53 pm
I LOVE THOSE! And my first thought was "Put a bird on it!" haha
August 11, 2012 2:49 pm
They are so cool! I would be way too scared to try fair isle. I haven't even knit intarsia before. It seems so difficult to me!
Katie permalinkAugust 11, 2012 6:26 pm
Oooh….ahhhh 🙂
August 12, 2012 1:19 am
you can hardly tell! At least you can see how much you've improved! Great pattern too 😀
August 12, 2012 3:38 pm
Those are so nice! I'd have no idea one was better than the other if you hadn't said anything.
August 13, 2012 1:07 am
They are beautiful! I agree with other commenters that probably noone will notice. Also, they would "adjust themselves" some once you start wearing them so the difference will lessen with time. And you can always make another right mitten only, now when you have the hang of it 🙂
August 13, 2012 2:24 am
Very pretty!
August 14, 2012 3:32 pm
These are so cute! "I'm not good at colorwork," my ass! You conquered it!

Hey all, I have a question about John the Ripper.
I know that a password that is 7 characters long and used only 4 keys. I know what the three keys are, but I don't know how to make a custom charset. I have edited the john.conf file to have the following:
Now i just don't know how to make the custom.chr so that it only contains the 4 keys 'asdf'Code:[Incremental:Custom] File = custom.chr MinLen = 7 MaxLen = 7 CharCount = 3
Any ideas?

The Opera web browser is included and, as with its UIQ 3.0 predecessor, can display pages vertically or horizontally. Here's an example:
And here's the same page horizontally
We missed the single-key shortcuts that make Opera the most usable browser on mobile devices. Keystrokes such as '2' for the Bookmarks page, '5' to toggle between 'use cached' and 'get all new' images, and particularly the '3' that takes you right to the page's main content, were all absent.
While mobile video and 'user-generated content' are the two great white elephants of our age - giving us tools to control our own media goes largely untapped. It would have been great to see Orb and Sling supported out of the box, two services that in their own way, allow you to access your home media library on your mobile. Moto has left this choice to the operators. Instead, it's opted to bundle the Sky Anywhere player. This is a big deal indeed, giving subscribers the ability to program their set-top box on the go. Given the HDSPA fast download support this is not only feasible, but practical.
We tested the Z8 on three 3G networks: O2, T-Mobile and 3. Call quality was excellent, and improved as we implemented firmware upgrades. We comfortably got two days' use out of the phone, and were pleased that it chugged along on 'no bars', giving an alert sound loud enough to clear a building, for a considerable time.
The Z8 is a brisk performer. It acquits itself well indeed against rival high-end smartphones. So many recent Nokia S60 models can leave you waiting for ages - 30 seconds isn't atypical - wondering if the application has crashed or hung. There are no such problems with the Z8, which grew more dependable with time: the home screen and apps deck are never more than a couple of seconds away at the worst. Nor was the phone plagued by the memory scarcity that dogged recent Symbian 9.1-based smartphones. Only when the camera was used did the phone need to close down other applications. A movie stayed contentedly in the background for several days. And even after being closed, picked up where you left off.

How to Cite information from an Ancestry Member Tree (AMT)?
As a general rule, for myself, I don't spend a lot of time on AMT's, mostly from bad experiences early on. I found information in these trees that made no sense and has no documentation. I have about 8,000 Hints to follow that do NOT include any AMT hints, as I have them turned off. I have enough hints waiting for me already.
Since I was asked the question, I turned on the Hints to see what might be there. Far too many to follow, but I did see one that was of interest to me.
Here are two AMT's that might be of interest:
That first tree is clearly marked as Unsourced. From my earlier experience with on line trees, not just on Ancestry but anywhere, I will not look at those trees. What I am looking for in AMT's is for places or repositories where I should be looking, IF I am running into a brick wall. I don't what to, nor will I, take the information in that tree and put it into mine. BUT there are two things I will do on that 2nd tree. That is what this blog post will be about. What Sources did they use that I haven't looked at yet, AND, perhaps make some electronic connection with that person to help collaborate in our research.
What I see is a Public Member Tree, with 6 attached records and 6 sources. Lippincott and Tuckerton, Ocean County are 'mine', meaning right place, right time, right name. Now, I don't know the name Throckmorton, nor Shepherd, nor the middle names of Norris or Arnold but since the tree is Public, I can go look.
I click on the link to that tree and see:
There are two things that I am looking for. The Contact Person and the confirmation that this person has 6 sources, with the information / facts, with source information. It's worth my time to look a little further.
The names on the right still aren't in my tree. In my tree, in a little earlier time were Lippincotts and Ridgway in the same area of New Jersey. I wonder if this tree has any Ridgway's with the Lippencotts?
So, I want to see if Richard Ridgway is in this SAME tree.
As I have learned with Ancestry, start to type and don't type too fast and watch the results start to appear. I got as far as RIDG and there were three Richards in this same tree. This tree certainly is indicating that we might have a connection.
But now, who Owns this AMT?
I hover over the Owner's ID and see this:
This is a link where I can send her a note, if I want to, and make contact. Of interest to me, is that this tree was last worked on "last month". Meaning recent for me. Some one who is active with their research.
That other tree, when I looked, the owner hadn't been on the tree for a couple of years and without any sources.
This tree is owned by Crista Cowan. I did a blog post about my connection with Crista back in September 2013:
What I want to do is actually two things. 1) compare what I have with what is in Crista's AMT, 2) and cite what information from her tree and put some information into my tree, in FTM2014. I will NOT copy what she has, but can CITE any Facts from her tree into mine. I can then share with her what I have from my research.
FTM2014 - Ancestry Member Tree Connection - Part 1
I see that Richard was born 27 February 1679/80 in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. There is a Hint right there, with the "double date". That is a topic for another time and I have talked about that in the past. The hint to me, is that the Month that I might have MAY BE different from what Crista has.
Richard's wife is a Willetts. That's good. Richard is the father and Elizabeth the mother.
Here is what I have in my FTM2014 file:
There is that birth month issue, but the Birth DATE is correct and the Birth Year is one of the two years in the AMT. BUT, I don't have information on WHERE he was born. The parents of Richard are the same, except my spelling is Willits and I also have Jr as a suffix for Richard.
Now, Crista doesn't have any citation in her AMT. My tree isn't too much better, because the course of my information is from a Family Group Sheet.
The creator of this Family Group Sheet is a cousin where his family and mother spent years researching this family line. So, the information is credible, but neither is completely accurate. No way to draw a conclusion on the family based on either tree. It's a matter, at this point of gathering information.
Now, what am I going to do here? I want to Document this new information and Cite these new facts into my tree.
In FTM2014, I go to the Sources Workspace, click on Add, select New, which brings up the screen where I enter the Keyword "fam" and select Family Chart of Family Group Sheet
Why did I select Family Group Sheet instead of something Online?
To me, there is nothing in that list that clearly defines what I am looking for. To me, what I am seeing is an online version of a Family Group Sheet with the same type of information that is in the Family Group Sheet information that I have in my file already.
Here is the Source Template that I created for the information that I will include in my database.
Remember, this is the Source Template. I did put the URL to the page here in the Comments. That is more for me and it won't be seen anywhere else. I will have in the CITATION that this information was found online.
I did a screen capture of Richard Ridgeway's profile page so that I could see it in my file. I will mark it as PRIVATE so that it won't be posted online. It's for my information.
When I clicked OK from the earlier screen, I was taken to the Citation Screen, so I clicked on the Media Tab, so that I could Attach a New Media File.
That took me to the screen where I selected that Screen Capture and that image is now in the Media Folder on my computer in the Family Group Sheet Category that I created.
Now for the Citation;
I entered into the Citation Detail:
Profile of Richard Ridgway (1679-1718), Ancestry Member Tree; accessed 04 Apr 2014
That will be included in the Reference Note. I used the Citation text as a reminder to me that this came form an Ancestry Member Tree and I pasted the URL into the Web Address field. The globe ICON to the right of that line will take me directly to that Profile. I have de-selected the Citation Text and the Web address from showing in the Reference Note field, which will become the Citation / End Notes.
Crista Cowan, Cowan Mulliner Woodruff Kerr; Crista Cowan, Utah, 2014. Profile of Richard Ridgway (1679-1718), Ancestry Member Tree; accessed 04 Apr 2014.
Is the Reference note.
From there, I then will add the Facts that I will take from that Profile. The other names, dates, places (Facts) that are in the profile and put them into my tree, with that AMT as the Source of the information.
Remember the Double Date issue that I mentioned, I entered 27 Feb 1680 into the Date field. Having run into this issue before, I entered the 2nd date, which brought up a warning at the top of the page and also the ICON on the right. Clicking on that warning ICON opened the Double Date screen, where I choose to use the double date format. This does two things. The first of which is to record in my file when EXACTLY I was in the AMT, and serves as a reminder that I may have conflicting information in my database.
I proceed with the location / place.
There are two things here to point out. The Place Name, as recorded in the AMT is not in the Place Name Authority, meaning that it may be a Historical Place Name. I covered how to handle the Historical Place Name issue in that earlier blog post. I also made this new Birth Fact is Preferred. This is a more complete Birth Fact, or one might say a conclusion. It's not a conclusion for me, but a working hypothesis of when and where Richard was born.
Two conflicts remain, birth date information and birth location information.
I put them into my Task List for Richard.
I continue to document this Profile in my FTM2014 file. I will make contact with Crista, using the internal Ancestry.com email system, to 1) Thank her for the information in her AMT, and 2) to let her know that I have a connection to her AMT. If you look at the comments from the September Blog post, we have already made that connection.
Again, the purpose of this blog post, is to illustrate how I use and document a find from an Ancestry Member Tree (AMT)

Six Secrets to Dining Out in Madison
How to tastefully navigate the city's dining scene
By Brianna Wilson
It seems there are rules for everything: attire, correspondences, even dating. But what about dining out? How has such a pertinent daily and social pastime become so far removed from the rule-book clichés? It hasn't, according to the Atlantic Monthly's contributing writer, Tyler Cowen. In a recent issue, he proposed six hard-and-fast rules for dining out. (Read his article here.)
The catch? Cowen lives in New York City, an epicenter of culinary creation. Ergo, his rules may be applicable in Manhattan, but what's a foodie to do in Madison, Wisconsin, land of cheese and happy cow jokes? Read on to find six tailored approaches to dining out here.
1. Go Without Your Gut
Take a tour of dishes with the most unusual or intriguing ingredients. An open mind will reap tasty benefits.
2. Eat Where Feng Shui Matters
Experience inner peace at a place where atmosphere comes at no cost of flavor.
3. Find Flavor in a Flash
Short on time? Visit these lunch spots for a quick bite without compromising taste.
4. Seek Real Recommendations
Three Madison Magazine foodies weigh in on their favorite places to eat across the city.
5. Have No Reservations about Reservations
Madison's food scene rarely requires planning ahead. But a few dining experiences in the city are well worth reserving a table.
6. Choose Desserts over Dinner
Oftentimes, restaurant-goers have no room for dessert. But these places are worth a visit—precisely for their sweet eats.

The onslaught of Ultrabooks has arrived, to fight off the thin and light might of Apple's MacBook Air. Lenovo's U300s is one of the first Ultrabooks coming out of the gate and it's a looker.
At 2.95 pounds and only 0.6-inches (14.9mm) thick, the U300s easily sits within MacBook Air territory. It has a 13.3-inch with 1366x768 resolution display, a second-gen Intel Core i7 processor, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 256GB SSD storage and of course Windows 7.
Boot-up time is said to be about 10 seconds and battery life is pegged at eight hours on one charge with 30 days of standby time.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
But the best part isn't that the U300s comes in a lovely shade of orange, that it's made of anodized aluminum or that it has one hell of a large glass trackpad (just like on MacBooks), but that it has a breathable keyboard. What's a breathable keyboard? Basically, because the U300s is so damn thin, it doesn't have room for much venting.
Breathe In, Breathe Out
So Lenovo came up with another workaround: heat comes up through the chic-let style keyboard buttons and flows through the hinges and the single vent on the left side of the laptop. The design allows Intel's Advanced Cooling Technology to cool off the keyboard, without it getting toasty (a no-no for folk who type all day) while allowing the U300s to maintain its thin form factor.
The general consensus seems to be that the keyboard is great to type on, but its lack of a backlit keyboard is a major turnoff and we're skeptical of how warm the U300s's keys can get with that breathable keyboard.
A warmer keyboard might be a nice feature for those who live in colder regions or during the colder winter season, but in places like California, it might just be sweat central for your fingers.
If all Ultrabooks turn out to look as sleek as Lenovo's $1,195 (starts at) offering, then we think Apple's MBA is going to see some stiff competition in the ultra mobile space. The U300s comes out in October.
Better yet, if all ThinkPad laptops don't look this good in their next revisions, we think some designers need to get canned.

AUSTIN (AP) – A person with knowledge of the situation says Lance Armstrong has apologized to the staff at his Livestrong cancer foundation. He did so before heading to an interview with Oprah Winfrey.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because the discussion was private.
Armstrong addressed the staff Monday and said, "I'm sorry." The person said the disgraced cyclist choked up and several employees cried during the session.
The person also said Armstrong apologized for letting the staff down and putting Livestrong at risk but he did not make a direct confession to the group about using banned drugs. He said he would try to restore the foundation's reputation.
Armstrong urged the group to continue fighting for the charity's mission of helping cancer patients and their families. After the meeting, Armstrong, his legal team and close advisers gathered at a downtown Austin hotel for the interview.

What is Your Pretzel Preference?
The Radler in Logan Square calls itself a "Bavarian restaurant and beer hall," so you better believe there is a pretzel. In fact, the haus pretzel ($6) is the very first dish on the menu, and if guests order them at anywhere near the frequency that they did while I dined there, then I'm guessing that in a given week The Radler serves hundreds of the them. So they must be good, right? Well, that depends on what you want from a pretzel.
If you prefer an airy and light pretzel, slicked with butter and lightly sprinkled with salt, this is your guy. This plate-sized pretzel is meant for dipping. You can purchase mustard, the standard dipping partner, but this one comes with a side of barley malt butter and blackberry jam. Both of which are decent on their own, but what you really want is a bite with both, since the combination ends up tasting like a less sweet version of peanut butter and jelly. And that's a good thing.
But if you like some crispness and perhaps a dark mahogany crust on your pretzel, you might think The Radler's offering is a bit soft. Fortunately, as I found last year, quite a few places are serving pretzels these days, and each has its own particular style. I've long been a fan of Longman & Eagle's extra-crispy offering, which comes with a side of cheesy Welsh rarebit. But I can also see how some might think it goes too far in the other direction.
If you don't like to choose between the styles, there's always the Soft Swabian Pretzel at Table, Donkey and Stick, which has thin and crispy arms, along with a soft base.
What about you? Where do you fall on the pretzel spectrum?

Big Ray: He and his Kats go nationwide
Ray Caddell, owner of Charlottesville's Century 21 Real Estate Office, leads a double life. Most days, he's the "hard-working nice guy" of the realty world.
But sometimes, when called on, Caddell and 11 other similarly minded souls break out of their daily routines and come together as Big Ray and the Kool Kats.
Though not quite superheroes, Big Ray and the Kool Kats do draw a crowd. Their recent advance sellout of Fluvanna's 275-seat Carysbrook Performing Arts Center, was the first of its kind there, and the nationally known group has performed for crowds as large as the 20,000+ who recently attended Musikfest in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
Caddell, the group's trumpet player, bandleader, and manager, describes the 1999 band as an offshoot of his other musical project, The Ray Caddell Swing Orchestra, a traditional 17-piece big band that's been together for nearly a decade.
Caddell feels no shame in leading a cover band.
"We play a little bit of everything, with a firm emphasis on swing," he says. "We cover music from 1920 or so into the 1970s."
Big Ray and the Kool Kats' sizable repertoire includes recent swing hits such as "Go Daddy O," and "Zoot Suit Riot," Motown classics such as "Rescue Me, " and big band standards like "Stardust."
"We play different kinds of music, but the common thread is great tunes with great arrangements that people want to hear and/or dance to," he says.
The group largely performs for corporate events and charity galas as well as some big outdoor events such as Charlottesville's own Fridays After 5, and Friday Cheers in Richmond. "Most of our events," Caddell says, "are in the 500-1000 person size."
Caddell's wife, Terry, runs Century 21 Ray Caddell and Associates with him, and that as well as the fact that he's self-employed and has "some great agents and staff that work for me," provides him with the flexibility he needs for his musical life.
Big Ray and the Kool Kats' next high profile performance is The Kennedy Center Gala on April 27 with Michael Feinstein, Patti Lupone, and The National Symphony. So if you need something to liven up spring in anticipation of a swingin' summer, make plans to head up 29North at the end of the month.

If your parents qualify to claim you in the tax year you get married, you can file MFS and you can NOT take the standard deduction for your husband or claim any kids for any child tax credits if kids are in this mix. Likewise your husband would also file MFS and also can not take your self-exemption.
Note that for 2018 the dependent exemption and self-exemption no longer exists. Filing MFS you will get the $12,000 Self-exemption only. Then if/when your parents claim you on their tax return, they will not get a dependent exemption since that exemption no longer exists. However, if they qualify for any dependent credits such as qualified education expenses, they will claim those, and you flat out can not, unless specific and explicit criteria are met.
There is nothing illegal about this either, provided your parents qualify to claim you on their tax return.
So filing MFS all you will get is the $12,000 standard deduction at the most.
Requirements for parents to qualify to claim you:
- if on Dec 31 of the tax year you are under the age of 19 and your parents provided more than 50% of your support for the entire year, they qualify to claim you. Period.
- If on Dec 31 of the tax year you are:
*Under the age of 24, and;
*were enrolled as a full time student for any one semester that started in the tax year, and;
*were enrolled in an accredited institution or higher learning, and;
*were enrolled in a credentialed course of study that will lead to a degree or certification, and
*YOU THE STUDENT did not provide more than 50% of your own support. (Scholarships, grants, 529 funds, gifts from Aunt Mary, etc. *do not count* for the student providing their own support) then:
- The parents qualify to claim the student on the parents tax return. The parents will also claim all education credits they qualify for.
Note that with the above, the student's earnings do not matter. The student could earn a million dollars and still qualify to be claimed as a dependent on the parent's tax return.
Note also that for a student, there is no requirement for the parents to provide any support. Not one single penny. THe support requirement is on the student, and only the student. TO reiterate that requirement, it is the student that must provide more than 50% of the students own support. There are only two possible ways the student can have sufficient income to provide their own support.
1. The student as a W-2 job or is self-employed and earns enough money to be able to prove that other sources of income (scholarship, grants, 529 funds, gifts, etc.) did not provide more than half of the student's support.
2. The student had a qualified student loan on which the *student* is the primary borrower, and sufficient funds were distributed to the student during the tax year to constitute more than half of the student's support.
One also has to take into account the amount of 3rd party income. For example, if you received $80K in scholarships during the tax year, then I don't care how much you may have earned. There is no way you're going to convince the IRS that it cost you more than $160K to support yourself as a college student. Your parent's would qualify to claim you on their tax return, even if you did earn a million dollars.
you can rest assured Mom and Dad will find out about the marriage eventually. But it won't be from the IRS directly per-se. Remember, after marriage you have to update your information with the Social Security Administration by visiting your local SSA office. The IRS pulls their data from the SSA every year, which will be around Dec 2018 for the 2018 taxes. So the name change will be reflected, and when the SSN doesn't match up with the last name on your parent's return, they're gonna know something's up. If you are in fact a college student, then you can expect all financial support to be cut off once they find out, since they will not be able to claim you (or more importantly your education expenses) on their 2019 return because you're married for the entire tax year.
So, if I file MFS, keep my name the same, will my parents be able to claim me and my education expenses, without finding out about the marriage for a year or two?
Sorry for so many questions just trying to figure everything out!
Trust me, it's not going to be "a year or two". Not even close. You forgot that the health insurance required by law has to have your current marital status to be valid. When that bill comes due, they're gonna know. If a claim is filed against that policy, when it's denied because the marital status is in disagreement, they're gonna know.
Either you file MFS and let your parent's claim you, or your file MFJ and together on the joint return you two take your $24,000 standard deduction. If you are married on or before Dec 31 of the tax year, then any other filing status is not an available legal option for you.
One thing to keep in mind is who files first. If your parents file first and claim you, then you will not be able to file MFJ or MFS and take your standard deduction.
Overall, it's really none of my business as to why you need to hide marriage from your parents anyway. But if the marriage is worth it, I would think it could wait until graduation maybe? We all have our opinions of course and I'm reluctant to post mine here since I don't know "the whole story" and I'm sure you don't want to post it in this public forum.
I guess my bottom line is, your parents are going to know something is up within 12 months of your marriage easily. If it's a problem, you can face the music now, or face it later. But you will face it. The longer you wait, the louder and more ear splitting that music will be most likely, too.
Overall, the way your pressing this, I suspect things have "happened" that ummmmmm,... for lack of a better word without coming out and saying it point blank.... "necessitate" the marriage within ohhhh... the next 9 months or so? 🙂
If I'm "close", then I would suggest you and the BF seek some counseling on campus for help in "breaking the news". I'm sure it's available for such a situation, because I can assure you that it would not be the first time that it's occurred with college students. I mean, you are after all, adults now, right?
I appreciate all of your responses!
Actually, I will tell you some of the story. My boyfriend is in the army and we want to move in together but it would just be easier to get married as we will receive BAH monthly for housing. We are not expecting right now, thankfully, haha. But, we just think it is more beneficial to get married as we plan on doing it in the future anyway. We just wanted to do this now so we can move in instead of waiting. I just wanted to hide it because I don't know how my dad will take it and I was just wondering if I could do it with out it causing a problem!
Being retired military myself, I can tell you that will create different problems. But before I get into that, what branch is your BF in, and what is his MOS or AFSC? Does his job require him to have a security clearance of "any" type?
Well, since he works in a security capacity, he's got a security clearance of at least level 3 (which is just under confidential). So when he notifies the military of his intent to marry (which is required) there "may" be a background investigation on you. (more than a 70% probability of this). This means DIA agents are going to be visiting friends and family to "investigate" you to ensure you are not a threat to the country, military, or government. I know it sounds kinda like "big deal" stuff, but it's not. Anytime a military member marries while on active duty, if that military member works in security or has a security clearance of any kind, when they get married the perspective spouse has their background checked more so for the military member they are marrying, than for anything else.
So mom and dad will find out, hands down. On top of that, if you have anything in your past that could affect your relationship with the BF, better get it out in the open now. Better he hears it from you, than from a DIA agent. (DIA = Defense Intelligence Agency). Trust me, DIA *WILL* find out. When they're done, they will know you better than you know yourself. Background investigations take anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Longer if you've moved a lot before you left home for that final time.
Additionally, when you get married, you will be issued a dependent ID card and enrolled in DEERS (Defense Enrollment Eligibility System) for your medical coverage. Your medical will be covered under Tricare - meaning you get dropped from mom and dad's insurance coverage automatically.
So, if I file MFS, keep my name the same
That raises flags with DIA, Tricare and DEERS. You will both be investigated for suspicion of a fraudulent marriage. I've seen it in my day where a couple got married "for the extra money" (the BAH and BAQ) when in a high cost of living area, and then divorcing once they leave that area. The military does not take kindly to that, and the military member could find themselves doing time at Leavenworth. The point with this paragraph is, mom and dad are going to find out, and if they don't hear it from you, I'm fairly certain they won't be showing up for your graduation since they may stop funding it. (The military has tons of education benefits for military spouses and their dependents. My favorite is the Hap Arnold Grant.)
Best o luck to you and yours. Also, any military related questions should be directed to the BF. Some things have changed since my days serving, and he has access to free legal advice at the base legal office. All he may need to do is make an appointment (and you can attend also) and it won't cost a dime.

A Russian website famous for for getting its mitts on re-production versions of mobile phones has stolen some of Nokia's N8 launch day thunder.
Making its debut today, the N8 is the first mobile phone anywhere built on the Symbian S3 platform - and it's very big news for Nokia.
But Russian blogger Eldar Murtazin had already obtained a prototype of the N8 and published a savage assault on his website Mobile Review, in which he accused Nokia of sabotaging its own brand (Google translation here).
Murtazin's preview picked up a lot of link traffic, if not at the insane levels that Gizmodo experienced with its recent found-in-the-bar iPhone 4 scoop.
And Nokia's response? No police raid and no firings.
Just a mild mannered riposte, entitled One of our children is missing, via the company blog, "Doug" writes: "So now that the official news is out, we'd like our prototype back. Please."
Not unnaturally, Doug points out that the software on the pre-production prototype is decidedly unfinished.
When it goes on sale this summer, we're confident that the N8 is going stand out for its ability to create and consume media, and stay connected with social networks. We're also confident that the products that make their way to our customers are going to be the best possible quality: Refined, tested, re-tested, evaluated, tested again, and then – once we're all perfectly happy – shipped.
Nokia is hunting for the source of the leak to Mobile Review - which it does not mention by name, but notes that this "particular site openly flaunts its ability to acquire our property".
But, and here is where it gets really interesting, Doug writes:
However, whilst we are determined to protect our intellectual property and maintain the surprise when a shiny new gadget is introduced, we are not going to do so at the expense of the working conditions we enjoy here at Nokia. We are not the Secret Police, and we want to maintain our culture of openness. We won't let days like yesterday alter that.
A whiff of a hint of a sub-text, possibly?

Despite years of denials, disgraced Tour de France winner Floyd Landis is spilling his guts about his career-long use of blood doping and performance-enhancing drugs—and claiming that Lance Armstrong taught him how to do it.
Landis—who was stripped of his 2006 Tour de France win after a positive doping test—has sent emails to USA Cycling and the International Cycling Union, as well as the Wall Street Journal, that go into great detail about all the various ways he broke the rules. Even bigger than his own admission is the allegation that Lance Armstrong and his coach on the U.S. Postal Service team, Johan Bruyneel, instructed Landis on the methods of steroids use and the blood transfusions used to beat the test for the blood doping agent EPO, and that Armstrong himself used these procedures. No proof is offered, as of yet. Just the word of a man who has nothing left to lose.
So, yeah ... this is officially going to get ugly. No comment from Armstrong yet.

Sarah-Quita! Almost no further introduction needed but in case you have forgotten; Sarah-Quita from Aruba, 25 years young and despite her age already gained 12 World titles in Freestyle and Slalom. Active in all 3 disciplines in the PWA and recently proud winner of The 2016 Aloha Wave Classic in Maui Hawaii. This true water woman spent all her life in the water and is very stoked with the collaboration with Brunotti.
"I was born and raised in the Caribbean, on the Dutch island Aruba. I?ve participated in a lot of sports as a kid until narrowing it down to swimming, tennis and windsurfing. Aruba is a great place to learn windsurfing because of the shallow water and wind that blows pretty much all year long.
When my parents took my brother and I to take windsurf lessons I was only 9 and wasn?t strong enough to lift the sail, whereas my brother took to it immediately and was surfing circles around me in no time. Only a year later when we went to Bonaire with a big group to compete I decided to try windsurfing again so I could join in on the trip. We were a huge group of kids having fun on the water and since then I?ve been hooked to windsurfing!
After moving to the Netherlands for studies I realized how lucky I was to grow up on an island. Because of the cold weather I started travelling out to discover new and warmer places for windsurfing. This is when I discovered that I loved travelling, windsurfing in new places and meeting inspiring people.
Blasting across the water at high speed and you?re deciding in what direction you want to go. Windsurfing just gives me this adrenaline rush that keeps me coming back for more! I love the sport as a whole and am therefore competing in all the disciplines on the professional tour. Freestyle, slalom and wave.
Wave sailing is my latest challenge and I?m loving it! Apart from that, my main goal is to raise the bar for women?s windsurfing!
To be part of this great Brunotti team makes me a very happy girl, the fact that my teammates are from so many different board sport categories is so inspiring for me and to learn from each other is a great benefit to this co-operation".

Team rider and big wave surfer Brett Burcher: "Two Dutchies and an Aussie do Scotland."
Last week the World Kiteboarding Championships took place in Dakhla, Morocco. Brunotti team riders Youri Zoon and Rita Arnaus participated in this event.
