text: Home- Academics- Off-Campus Study- Colgate Study Groups- Washington, DC Washington, D.C., Study Group Director Robert P. Kraynak, Professor of Political Science Colgate University's Washington Study Group combines rigorous academic analysis with a total immersion in Washington political life. During the semester, students take senior seminars on various aspects of the American political system and choose an internship in congressional offices, agencies, or think tanks.They also meet national leaders in politics, journalism, business, the military, and the arts and will visit the great historical and cultural sites of the city. Begun in 1935, the Washington Study Group is the oldest of Colgate's study groups and the first program of its kind in Washington, D.C. Many study group participants establish lifelong connections in Washington and return to Washington after graduation to build successful careers in national government and politics. Program Structure and Course Credits The program features three 400-level seminars and a 12-week internship with an executive agency, think-tank, or congressional committee. Integrating course work with direct participation, the program provides a balance of academic study, social life, and practical experience. The three graded courses (POSC 410, 412, and 414) count for concentration credit, while the pass/fail internship component (POSC 413) counts toward graduation requirements.1. Our Changing Constitutional Order (POSC 410, 8 weeks). An inquiry into the enduring principles and changing features of the U.S. constitutional order, this course explores the founding principles of America and major institutions as they evolved from the founding period to the present, focusing on the balance of three branches of government, styles of leadership, and policy debates. It meets twice weekly in seminars combining lecture and group discussion. Taught by Professor Kraynak. 2. Executive Decision Making and Leadership (POSC 412). The first half of this course meets as a weekly seminar, and explores themes relevant to the students' experience in Washington: why government organizations function (or fail to function) as they do, presidential leadership of the bureaucracy, the formation of political/policy agendas, budget development and execution, executive-congressional relations, the media, and current events. In the second half of this course, students, with personal supervision of the instructor, will research and write a major paper on a topic that draws upon sources unique to our Washington location. Taught by Robert Samuels. 3. Internships in the American Political System (POSC 413, 12 weeks). Students serve a 12-week internship with executive agencies, congressional offices, the Supreme Court, the state department, the media or interest groups. They participate directly in the activities of the political process. The Readings and Research course (POSC 412) is designed to enhance and complement this internship experience. Pass/Fail. Placements and supervision by Robert Samuels. 4. Contemporary Politics and Policy (POSC 414, 7 weeks). This course continues themes developed in POSC 410 and 412. It traces major constitutional developments and policy debates following the New Deal until today focusing on the role of government in people's lives. Previous topics have included health care, welfare reform, immigration, the national debt, campaign finance, energy policy, social security, and the balancing of civil liberties with security issues. In research papers and class presentations, students will be asked to propose policy reforms and assess their political feasibility. Co-taught by Professor Kraynak and Robert Samuels. Throughout the semester, as part of the academic and experiential components of the program, we will have interviews with leaders in the policy process – media figures, interest group and party spokesmen, politicians, academicians, officials, and high-level civil servants. Students are expected to take full advantage of these opportunities by being active and informed participants. Eligibility, Basis for Selection, and Prerequisites The Washington Study Group is open to students who will be juniors, seniors, or mature sophomores in Spring 2015. Students do not have to major in political science to be eligible for the group (though most participants are political science majors). Selections are made by the director in consultation with other members of the Department of Political Science. Criteria for selection include: academic achievement, evidence of interest, and qualifications essential to successful participation in the program. Successful applicants for the Washington Study Group must take one of the following prerequisite courses: POSC 210: Congress and Decision-making in American Government POSC 150: America as a Democracy POSC 211: The Presidency and Executive Leadership Libraries For research papers, students may use the Library of Congress and will have checkout privileges at Georgetown University Library.They may also use nearby libraries at American University, Catholic University, and the University of Maryland, or other public libraries located in the Washington area. Living Arrangements Students will live in apartments by Colgate University in the Cleveland House located near the Woodley Park/Zoo Metro stop in the District of Columbia. Students take the Red Line from the Woodley Park/Zoo metro stop to Union Station and then walk about two blocks to the Hall of the States, where classes are held. Colgate will make the necessary arrangements for apartment leases and will charge students for housing. Standards of Conduct Activities and behavior of the study group members in Washington, D.C., must be consistent with their responsibilities as students of the governmental process, as representatives of Colgate University, and — during internships — as participants in governmental operations. The program is a full-time activity and precludes other work commitments, such as part-time employment. On internship, students maintain the regular work schedule of their offices. Extracurriculars Washington offers an abundance of rich, cultural life, including the Smithsonian Museums, Shakespearean theatre, musical performances at the Kennedy Center and other venues, and a wide variety of sporting events. The study group will attend a variety of educational, cultural, and athletic events along with boat ride down the Potomac and field trip to Mt. Vernon. Information on these activities is available on our Study Group webpage. Costs For details of student expenses on this study group, please see Student Cost Estimate Sheet.

Inside Wall Street: Irish stocks are smiling
The Irish government takes action to rekindle investor interest in the nation.
With St. Patrick's Day just behind us, what's a better and more propitious time to talk about investing in Ireland? I spoke on Friday with Joan Burton, the minister for Social Protection and the deputy leader of the Irish Labour Party, who was visiting New York to help celebrate the most globally popular Irish holiday.
I had a very informative and refreshing interview as she updated me on the positive change that apparently is taking place in Ireland amid the messy financial conditions in some countries in Europe -- and in spite of continuing fears among worried and less-informed investors about Ireland's developing situation.
"Ireland is back, and investing now in Ireland would be a very timely idea, and should definitely produce rewards over the long run," says Burton, who was the finance spokesperson for the Labour Party up to 2011. A trained CPA, the minister worked for PriceWaterhouse in Dublin before starting her electoral political career. She was elected to the Irish Parliament a number of times before her appointment to the Cabinet.
She attests with confidence that economic conditions in the country are already starting to improve, with new orders for Ireland's goods and business activity beginning to increase noticeably. Burton also points to "Ireland's enduring attractiveness as a destination for foreign direct investment, underpinned by our 12.5% corporate tax rate." While it may be premature to claim that Ireland has been reborn, early indications suggest the country is on the road to economic recovery, she says.
As in any type of investing, the largest returns are usually realized by people who step up before all of the stars have aligned. So Burton strongly suggests that U.S. investors as well as American companies should put some of their investment money in Ireland for the simple reason that "we are confident that our mandate to implement measures for reform and recovery will succeed."
Information technology, education, healthcare, and real estate are among the sectors of the economy representing the best investment opportunities right now in Ireland, says the Minister. At the same time, she is also encouraged by the increased interest in the areas of financial services, digital media, gaming, and pharmaceuticals, as the government has adopted measures to boost these industries.
She notes that President Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton have been upbeat about opportunities in Ireland and have expressed support for the nation's turnaround. Bill Clinton, in a speech before a public forum not too long ago, understood and underscored the idea that Ireland wants investments, not a bailout.
"Now is the time to invest in Ireland, where property is a steal," said Clinton. Ireland has "the best-educated workforce in the world," he noted. Burton says President Obama, Bill Clinton and others who have expressed support for investing in Ireland are aware of the improving economic scenario in the country, even as virtually the rest of Europe is mired in multifold problems and economic stagnation. Ireland has appealed to a group of investors pulled together by the William J. Clinton Foundation to consider the opportunities in Ireland.
"We definitely are turning the corner," says Burton, with the country and its government exceeding their targets for a faster and well-rounded economic recovery, she adds.
For investors seeking an investment play on Ireland, some analysts recommend betting on the ETF iShares MSCI Ireland Capped Investable Market Index Fund (EIRL). The ETF tracks the price performance of underlying holdings in the MSCI Ireland Investable Market 25/50 index. This index measures the performance of stocks in the top 99% by market capitalization of the equity securities listed on stock exchanges in Ireland.
So far, the Ireland ETF is the only major game in town on investing in Ireland's securities. PowerShares and State Street Global Advisors have registered ETFs consisting of stocks traded in Ireland, but they have yet to be launched.
Shares of EIRL have been on an upswing despite the European financial mess, trading at $23.58 a share, very close to their 52-week high of $23.80, and way above is 52-week low of $16.76. Right now, most analysts are down on ETFs related to Europe, but that is why the opportunity to make big bucks in iShares Ireland ETF is potentially huge, according to the Irish bulls. The ETF is invested in many sectors of Ireland's economy, including technology, pharmaceuticals, real estate, and educational services.
Burton points out that the reason Ireland is such a good buy now is that it isn't one of the nations in Europe that are vulnerable to economic disaster. It shouldn't be lumped together with such strapped and troubled countries as Greece, Portugal, Spain and Italy. "We have learned from our earlier mistakes, and we have, for example, strengthened our banking system and refined government regulations," she says.
So for investors seeking to take advantage of hidden opportunities in Europe, Ireland stands out as among the best bets in that financially challenged part of the world.

I'm generally the person who curses having to find a painter. I poke around on Angie's List, call some people, they never call me back, and then I abandon the project. I found Kim Davidson Painting my first impression was positive -- I called her,she called me back. She came, checked out the project, gave us a reasonable estimate that evening via email, showed up a few days later to do the job (basically paint half of our place), quickly, neatly, and efficiently finished the job, and was nice and sweet. A few days later, our condo association hired her to do some outside painting, and again, her team showed up and finished the job neatly and efficiently.
Kim-Davidson-Painting-Handyman-and-Home-Improvement stands out from
the rest even before they start painting. I called half a dozen
painters on a Friday evening and asked them for estimates.
Kim 1) answered the phone right away 2) agreed to come over right away in the morning for the quote 3) gave us by far the best quote.
Throughout the painting process, they continued to be very easy to contact and work with.
Kim Davidson was very patient with us as we sorted through dozens of possible paint colors. She lent us her paint wheel (a collection of strips showing all the available colors from a paint company) so that we could look at the colors overnight, in different lightings, etc. She also went to pick up small samples of paint for us several times so that we could try them out on the wall in small areas.
And the actual painting: it was fabulous. Kim and her husband got through our entire apartment (hall, bathroom, living room, bedroom, kitchen, pantry, closet) in about 3 days. That includes fixing a ton of holes and cracks in the wall and ceiling, painting the ceiling, as well as walls and trim!!! She was very careful about moving our things out of the way, using dropcloth, etc. We're extremely pleased with the way everything came out. Kim made our walls and ceilings look like new!
the best
kim davidson painting,home improvement,and handyman thanks for the great work on my house,the living room and kitchen come out great,can not wait until the new floor is installed ,thanks for the great on time service

kim davidson painting,home improvement,and handyman
i was looking for estimates to rebuild my front 2 decks,kim davidson painting,come in gave me the best prices and finished the work on time and under budget ,thanks for the great work
We hired Kim-davidson-painting-and-home-improvement for a last-minute job, after purchasing our condo, we wanted some wallpaper removed, walls painted, some stains from water damage dealt with, and ceilings painted. When we decided we wanted it done, though, it was only 10 days until the moving truck was scheduled to arrive! Kim-davidson-painting-and-home-improvement adjusted her schedule to fit our needs, and the job was done with time to spare, at a very great low reasonable price (especially for the wallpapered bathroom, which looked like quite a bite of a job for such a small room!), and with excellent results. My husband and I were both very happy with the work they did, and would definitely recommend them. If we need any more painting done, we'll definitely be giving Kim-davidson-painting-and-home-improvement services
It is my pleasure to write a positive review for Kim Davidson Painting and Home Improvement . Kim and her husband are super nice and did a great job. They took off our 1970s popcorn ceiling and painted a nice, smooth finish. Kim also painted our walls and referred an electrician for recessed lighting. Her prices are fair and I was always able to reach her by phone. I originally found Kim online and read all the great reviews. Really glad I found Kim Davidson Painting And Home Improvement
I found Kim Davidson Painting And Home Improvement on Yellow Pages.com After seeing 26 very positive reviews including jobs large and small I decided to call. Kim came by the next day and as I only needed a couple of rooms done Kim gave me a VERY good price and actually started work same day! Kim is a very nice person and also very professional, work, work work right away with her. Everything came out perfect and Kim even did a few touch ups of other areas. I need some work done on another condo I own and I will definitely be calling kim-davidson-painting-and-home-improvement in for that as well. Sincerely, Sabrina, Melrose Ma

Cancer industry trying to co-opt most recent potential natural cure - Frankincense
(NaturalNews) "There is not one, but many cures for cancer available. But they are all being systematically suppressed by ... the major oncology centers. They have too much of an interest in the status quo," stated Dr Robert Atkins, MD, creator of the Atkins Diet, after licensure problems for curing cancer patients with ozone therapy during the 1960s.
Yet the cancer industry keeps doing exactly what Dr. Atkins described. It is amazing how many cures do exist while many suffer and die from "accepted" incredibly expensive toxic chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
At least 100 natural cancer cures have been discovered and used successfully without side effects since 1920.
Now independent research points to another potential natural cancer cure, Sacred Frankincense. This is an herb grown mostly in Oman, south of Saudi Arabia and east of Yemen on the Arabian Sea coast. It has been used medicinally for thousands of years for several ailments by Ayruvedic medicine. However, research is being conducted with the goal of isolating active ingredients in the herb that Big Pharma may mimic with lucrative FDA approved patents.
Frankincense research
International laboratory research has demonstrated frankincense essential oil's ability to shut down cancer cells without harming healthy cells. It shuts the cancer cells down by probing the nucleus and resetting the cancerous DNA to normal cellular DNA.
This research is considered preliminary within mainstream medical authority and FDA guidelines. A leading researcher on the frankincense project, Dr. Mahmoud Suhail, says that there are 17 active ingredients in frankincense, but many scientists think Boswellic acid is the main cancer cell eliminator.
Dr. Suhail disagrees, so he's experimenting with the ingredients to determine which one or ones should be isolated. This would benefit Big Pharma, enabling them to create a profitable patented cancer drug based on frankincense after years of testing.
What about simply using the essential oil from high quality frankincense, such as Boswellia Sacra?
The research cover story is that they want to make sure they have the right ingredient or ingredients and to eliminate unnamed allergenic agents that are not actively involved with killing cancer cells. In Oman, however, where many use abundantly grown frankincense, there are no cancer patients in either of the two hospitals. Also, there are no serious allergic reactions among them. Conversely, there are many adverse side effects from pharmaceuticals and chemotherapy.
So the cover story is bogus. Harmful side effects haven't slowed Big Pharma's pursuit of big bucks in the least. Profitable FDA approved patented medications require laboratory synthesis. Natural solutions can't be patented.
At least one informal human trial has been reported using only natural frankincense essential oil. A person with bladder cancer had considerable improvement within two weeks of using frankincense essential oil (http://essentialoils.getoiled.com). Frankincense essential oils are also currently being used in some European hospitals to bolster immunity and elevate moods.
None of this report is intended to be medical advice. The 100 natural cancer cures in existence were not derived from extensive trials and patented. They were used on cancer patients, resulting in cure rates way beyond mainstream medical results without miserable side effects.
If one is unable to attend a special alternative cancer clinic, experts recommend using two or three available natural protocols and avoiding sugar and chemical additives with a "cancer diet" (http://cancertutor.com/AltTreatments/Alt_Diet.html).

Cancer hope
Immunologist Mahmoud Suhail is hoping to open a new chapter in the history of frankincense.
Scientists have observed that there is some agent within frankincense which stops cancer spreading, and which induces cancerous cells to close themselves down. He is trying to find out what this is.
"Cancer starts when the DNA code within the cell's nucleus becomes corrupted," he says. "It seems frankincense has a re-set function. It can tell the cell what the right DNA code should be.
"Frankincense separates the 'brain' of the cancerous cell - the nucleus - from the 'body' - the cytoplasm, and closes down the nucleus to stop it reproducing corrupted DNA codes."
Working with frankincense could revolutionise the treatment of cancer. Currently, with chemotherapy, doctors blast the area around a tumour to kill the cancer, but that also kills healthy cells, and weakens the patient. Treatment with frankincense could eradicate the cancerous cells alone and let the others live.
The task now is to isolate the agent within frankincense which, apparently, works this wonder. Some ingredients of frankincense are allergenic, so you cannot give a patient the whole thing.
Boswellia sacra grows in Oman, Yemen and Somalia
Other Boswellia species grow in Africa and India
The tree may have been named after John Boswell, the uncle of Samuel Johnson's biographer
In ancient Egypt frankincense was thought to be sweat of the gods
Source: The Pharmaceutical Journal
Dr Suhail (who is originally from Iraq) has teamed up with medical scientists from the University of Oklahoma for the task.
In his laboratory in Salalah, he extracts the essential oil from locally produced frankincense. Then, he separates the oil into its constituent agents, such as Boswellic acid.
"There are 17 active agents in frankincense essential oil," says Dr Suhail. "We are using a process of elimination. We have cancer sufferers - for example, a horse in South Africa - and we are giving them tiny doses of each agent until we find the one which works."
"Some scientists think Boswellic acid is the key ingredient. But I think this is wrong. Many other essential oils - like oil from sandalwood - contain Boswellic acid, but they don't have this effect on cancer cells. So we are starting afresh."
The trials will take months to conduct and whatever results come out of them will take longer still to be verified. But this is a blink of the eye in the history of frankincense.
Nine thousand years ago, Omanis gathered it and burnt it for its curative and cleansing properties. It could be a key to the medical science of tomorrow.

Prostate Cancer
In the March 2010 issue of "Molecular Pharmacology," Dr. Aydee C. Estrada, et al., reported on the effects of tirucallic acids against prostate cancer. Tirucallic acids are the active ingredients found in frankincense. Dr. Estrada found that tirucallic acids extracted from frankincense successfully killed cultured human prostate cancer cells that were experimentally grafted into mice, by inducing the expression of proteins that are important in apoptosis. Apoptosis is a cell process that produces cellular death and is a process most cancers have learned to avoid.
Acute myeloid leukemia, or AML, is a cancer that occurs in the bone marrow and originates in cells that eventually develop into white blood cells of the immune system. AML is rare in children and generally only affects adults over the age of forty. In the March 2005 issue of "Molecular Cancer Therapy," Dr. Lijuan Xia, et al., reported that in laboratory-based experiments, resin from frankincense extract successfully induced apoptosis, increasing cell death by approximately 40 percent in leukemia cells.
Kidney Cancer
Using human bladder cancer cell lines, as reported in the March 2009 issue of "BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine," Dr. Mark Barton Frank, et al., illustrated that frankincense was cytotoxic for bladder tumor cells. In other words, frankincense might provide benefit against bladder cancer by killing cancer cells, while not affecting normal cells. Further experiments are necessary to verify the results.

You Will Never Guess The European Country With The Longest Working Week
Daniel Goodman / Business Insider
One detail that stuck out to us was the list of longest working weeks in Europe that the report compiled. Two lists were compiled featuring the average working weeks for all of those employed, and another just for those in full time employment.
Interestingly, while the UK comes high in full time working, it doesn't feature so at all when we look at the top 20 longest working weeks for all of those employed — presumably because the country employs a larger proportion of part time workers.
(In fact, the difference between the two lists seems to suggest that part time labour could be a rich country problem — or that part time workers in poorer countries work longer hours.)
However there is one country that comes 1st and 2nd on both lists — and it's not a country renowned for hard work at the moment. Take a look at the list of longest work weeks (compared to their full time only working weeks) below.
(For reference, the EU average working week for all in employment is 37.4 hours)
UPDATE: For another take on the statistics, take a look here for Europe's 20 most productive countries >

Cramer's 6 Stocks in 60 Seconds: SAVE MT CLF AVP DSX Z (Update1)
Check out Jim Cramer's latest trading recommendations on "Action Alerts Plus".
(Updates from 10:51 a.m. ET with closing information.)
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Here's what Jim Cramer had to say on CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" Tuesday.
Cramer noted how Spirit Airlines (SAVE) seems to charge a fee for everything. That, however, didn't stop Raymond James from upgrading it based on valuation, he added. SAVE rose 1.5% to $30.72.
Morgan Stanley downgraded ArcelorMittal (MT) to sell from hold. Cramer said everyone seems to hate this company all of a sudden, but he likes steel companies at current valuations. MT fell 1.9% to $13.27.Cliff Natural Resources (CLF) was going up on takeover chatter, something Cramer said he doesn't like, especially when the fundamentals are poor. CLF was flat at $21.68. Citigroup says to buy Avon Products (AVP). Cramer said the call interested him and he praised CEO Sherilyn McCoy. AVP rose 1.4% to $20.64. Cramer called Diana Shipping (DSX) a play on both China and Europe. Credit Suisse upgraded the stock to hold. DSX jumped 6.4% to $10.94. Zillow's (Z) secondary priced at $82.50. Cramer said it would be a good day if the stock could rally to $83 after opening near $80. Z dropped 4.8% to $80.71.

monkeyhouse said...
me and my girlfriend have been playing for a year - we have had fun tryign out all the races and classes and have settled down for the past few months and taken mains to almost 50 (we both work and have a family so WoW is just fun for us - we are not hardcore).
WoW is a lot fun to play but we only make use a part of the game beause we play just the 2 of us together. We cannot do instances (and from the sound of things they sound too much hassle anyway) and have no interest in PvP or battlegrounds.
The game is loosing it's way and we are becoming bored. The changes just annoy us as every patch changes the game and we have to spend tim trying to figure out what has changed - the release notes never cover everything and learning all the talent repec combos is a pain.
It is not worth the money anymore and i am going to look for another game we can play together - if anyone has any ideas then please let me know.

Planck, Nina
Adult Nonfiction TX360.U6 P63 2006
Summary: Yes, Virginia, you can butter your carrots. A farmer's daughter tells the truth about cream, eggs, fish, chicken, chocolate--even lard. Everyone loves real food, but they're afraid butter and eggs will give them a heart attack--thus the culinary abomination known as the egg-white omelet. Tossing out the yolk, it turns out, isn't smart. Real Food reveals why traditional foods are actually healthy: not only egg yolks, but also cream, butter, grass-fed beef, wild salmon, roast chicken skin, and more. Nina Planck grew up on a vegetable farm in Virginia and learned to eat right from her no-nonsense parents: lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, along with beef, bacon, fish, dairy, and eggs. Later, she wondered: was the farmhouse diet deadly, as the cardiologists say? Happily for people who love food, the answer is no. In lively, personal chapters on produce, dairy, meat, fish, chocolate, and other real foods, Nina explains how ancient foods like beef and butter have been falsely accused, while industrial foods like corn syrup and soybean oil have created a triple epidemic of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Real Food upends the conventional wisdom on diet and health and explains our taste for good things.

I've been taking these for about a week now occasionally, and my nose is so runny all the time.. It's because my body pulls out the toxins, which is good. I have been noticing also that my energy levels are way up than normally. Worth trying.
Good stuff.

The news about survival in childhood cancer has improved greatly in the last two decades since our clinic began. Advances in treatment have resulted in significant increases in survival rates. We have also learned that some survivors are at risk for physical and psychological issues related to the cancer and its therapy. Radiation, chemotherapy and surgery used to successfully treat childhood cancers may lead to what are called "late effects."
Common late effects of pediatric cancer may include:
Many survivors don't have any of these problems and are doing well. Although there may not be any late effects at this time, it is important for every cancer survivor to know about their treatment and to understand how that treatment may have the potential for long-term complications. In addition, survivors should know how to keep themselves as healthy as possible as they grow older.

ST. CHARLES, Mo. -- A jury trial is underway for a suburban St. Louis man accused of breaking into his ex-girlfriend's home and injuring her Italian greyhound so badly that the dog had to be euthanized.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that 37-year-old Charles Zidek of Chesterfield is charged with burglary and animal abuse.
Authorities say Zidek entered the home of a St. Charles woman in October 2011 and repeatedly threw the dog, Vinny, against a wall. DNA evidence from blood at the scene allegedly matched Zidek's DNA, and a neighbor saw Zidek's truck in the driveway that afternoon.

Did you maybe miss the big announcement yesterday? Had to do with pets being made account-wide? Still not sure on how you'll have account-wide pets that can also be traded away to others (maybe it's sorta like BoE vs. BoP) but with that announcement this is now a non-issue.

Aluminum prices fell on the London Metal Exchange Monday as a sluggish market was largely indifferent to China's reported aluminum buying, given the preponderance of bearish macroeconomic news.
Three-month aluminum settled second-ring trade on the LME at $1,505.50 per tonne, down 2.2 percent from $1,540 per tonne on Dec. 24. Aluminum stocks rose by 3,025 tonnes, bringing total inventories in LME-registered warehouses to 2,253,025 tonnes.

I am a great great great granddaughter of John and Rebecca (Baltzell) Burkhart who arrived at what is now Albany, OR in 1847. One of their sons, Leander Columbus Burkhart, was married to Melissa Ann Davidson of the Hezekiah & Melissa Davidson family of Polk County. They had also come to Oregon in 1847. Leander & Melissa had a daughter, Nellie Olivia Burkhart, who married & had a daughter named Pearl Laura Baker. Pearl fell in love with Harry Hoyt Taylor, a school mate. It was a match made in Heaven. They married & had 2 daughters. The younger one, Patricia, was my mother. She is buried with her parents at the Multnomah Park Pioneer Cemetery in Portland, OR. I live in Portland, Oregon with my sister, and black cat, Shadow. I have an older sister living in Portland. My only son lives in SW Washington. I also have a married niece & married nephew living in the area & a niece, sister & brother-in-law living in California. I have been creating my Family Tree since mid-Oct. 2010; little did I know what I was getting in to. I was able to use many of my mother's old records from the 1960s-1980s, but have been so thankful for the age of computers & also for "Find A Grave", which has helped me sort out so many of my Burkhart, Ellis, Baltzell, Taylor, & Davidson relatives on my mother's side, many in Oregon, and my Webb, Gatlin, Warters, Uzzell & Lassiter relatives as well as all of the people they married on my father's side, many in Georgia & the Carolinas, and my son's father's family. I truly appreciate all of the time and effort all of you have spent creating this site; it's right up my alley as I enjoy sorting things out & solving puzzles, putting things in order, etc. I was a Social Services Worker for many yrs., but had to retire due to severe migraines; I now have problems with Reynaud's making my hands cold, pretty severe arthritis so I need to have both knees replaced & a right ankle I sprained for the 6th time just Jan 2014. I've been told I have no tendons left which all explains why I am not as mobile as I used to be (and miss it!). I was hoping to get new knees two years ago in 2012, just in time for my 61st birthday, but some other issues arose, including back problems; steroid injections will help, soon, I hope. I've not been able to spend as much time on my family tree & memorials as I'd like, need about a week non stop to catch up. In the mean time, I spend what time I can researching & rediscovering my ancestors who came to Oregon (stopping along the way in VA., TN., MO., ILL., Iowa, TX & CA) in 1847 and settled portions of the Willamette Valley, Eastern Oregon and Southern Oregon. I am finding, via Find A Grave, many more cousins throughout the United States, however, which is really exciting. I am still hoping to hear from my one remaining uncle in the mid West. I have recently found Jewish heritage under the names of Burkhardt, Mayer, Freiburger & Huepfer going way back (to the mid 1600's) to when some family left Germany and ended up in Johnson Co., Georgia, America, among other places. I wish I knew more. In case you can't tell, I do tend to get side tracked frequently, especially when it comes to the graves of "little ones", Veterans & others without any flowers, & will leave flowers or an Angel for them, especially if they have none there, which I find incredibly sad. I ran into a Vietnam Vet at a grocery store Summer 2012, who rides at funerals (The Patriot Guard). I actually was brave enough to go up to him and thank him & shake his hand; I told him about Find A Grave & gave him the web site address. I hope he looked us up! Thanks to all of you so much for all of your help as I am only human, am just striving to be better, One Day at a Time. When my computer was hacked July 2011, I missed Find A Grave the most! I miss my son who I haven't heard from since April; he has a good job that takes him out of the state alot and has moved up to Washington. I love talking with my dad, who is a World War II vet, & is now 89, every week. I am so grateful he is still around. I have also heard from relatives whose family came to Oregon about the same time mine did and they settled not too far from where my family did. Talk About A Small World! May God take care of everyone. You are some very special people, as if you didn't know! I also use familysearch.org site which can be very helpful..**Spend time with your loved ones while you have them. I spent time with my nephew and his bride, my niece and her beautiful daughter and my younger sister on Christmas Eve, 2013. It was wonderful. Thank You Father. My niece is married to a very wonderful gentle man she has known & cared about for many years; they welcomed a beautiful baby girl into their lives on Oct 30th, 2013, so my sister is now a grandmother! I am so happy for all of them! I have heard from my sponsor of almost 35 years who has been severely disabled with a broken tailbone. I got a lovely card from her the day after my birthday and I never would've thought my 62nd birthday would've been as great as it was, especially with the storms, but it was great hearing from my son & my dad and my sister made me dinner, so all was good. She also just sent me a Christmas card with an update on how she's doing and that she is, slowly, healing. I am so grateful to God. My knee, ankle, back & foot problems continue to plague me to the extent that I had a cortisone injection in each knee on Oct 1st, 2013 as I'd been bedridden, and it helped. I finally got a new computer back on Sept 1st. I am totally frustrated, not always following my doctor's orders, but trying to. My gmail.com address has worked out much better although I am checking yahoo about once a month to deal with causes I believe in. Please continue to use my gmail address from now on. Thank you so very much. Take care and stay safe, preferably with someone you care about. Summer is here with it's hot, going into the high 80's and 90's in Oregon during the day, although it is still somewhat cool at night. I feel badly for all of you back in the Mid West & East who have had such weird weather that just won't quit! Shadow comes and sits on my hair when I'm lying in bed, at night, watching TV, before going to sleep. She purrs and I reach back and pet her; she's so sweet, was 14 yrs. old in April. I've been abstaining so I can get my knees replaced and possibly my right ankle. One Day at A Time, by the grace of God, as I understand Him, I'm gonna do this. Can it really be 50 years since I sat in front of my folk's TV in our livingroom, watching Ed Sullivan and the Beatles came on & sang, "All My Lovin'"? I felt something stir inside me and knew I'd never be the same. I was 12 years old. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I suddenly feel so old. Even Shadow has white whiskers, now. She fell and hurt her back badly so is on pain meds while she heals. I don't know what I would've done if I'd lost her....
With All Sincerity,
Kathie L. Webb Blair (& my black cat, Shadow), in Portland, Oregon, USA. Aug 1st, 2014

RE: The Ashtons
Kathie, wow, you do have your hands full! I hope and pray your sister will be alright. Back problems are never fun; hope the surgery improved her situation.
Hope your kitty is OK, too. I've got 2 cats myself, and they do leave paw prints on your heart!
Take your time; no rush!!

Pvt Charles Samuel Place
Thank you so much for your touching tribute to my Grand-Uncle that you left as "flowers" on his Memorial Page. When I was able to have his page on the "Virtual Tour" I was so hoping that people, like yourself, would be able to read about his short life and his family who loved him and to see the photographs of him and to know of the "Ultimate Sacrifice" that he made for his Country. My Grandmother loved him so much and I grew up feeling as though I had always known him. Another "Place" cousin, Pvt Harry Place (Henry Alexander Frederick Place) #56682495, also gave his life in France for Canada during WWI. We are so grateful to the findagrave.com website for the opportunity to honor our brave soldiers and our other family members. There have been many, many wonderful people like you who have left flowers for Charles.
Thank you again!

Andrew Jackson Gray Westbrook
Wondering if you can give me some assist. I have a marriage record for Andrew J.G. Westbrook marrying his cousin, Julia nee WESTBROOK (daughter of Charles Westbrook and Winifred nee SIMMONS)on August 8, 1849 in Lowndes Co., MS. One child, Vernon to this union. I see that his memorial is showing Falia STARK as a wife. Can you offer me some opinion? Connie

Mikala Dent
RE: Transfers
Mikala is now Sister Dent she is service the Lord in Tennessee. Some of the people on find a grave have become to pushy and start demanding that she transfer their third cousins 2nd wife to them.(or some other distant relative.) When I tell them she will be gone for two years they get made and report her to find a grave, who tells them she does not have to transfer a person who is not in your first 4 gen.ie: children, parent, grandparent or great grandparent. She didn't mind sharing or transferring but she was not going to be bullied. Now she has given up and said start transferring to the people who left flower on find a grave and that is why you got the people you did.
We are all volunteers here I hate it when people have unrealistic expectation of other people time. If people are a little more polite maybe it would not run off the people who took the time out of the day to go walk around the cemetery and take the pictures. Thanks for taking over!!
