@CongressEdits Helps You Track Your Congressman's Vanity in Real Time
Hey, Congress, your Wikipedia edits are showing.
That's all due to @CongressEdits, a new Twitter account that tweets out changes to Wikipedia pages made from congressional computers. A bot monitors IP addresses associated with Congress and notifies the account's 11,000 followers when an edit has been made.
And since Ed Summers created @CongressEdits earlier this month and made its coding public, similar bots have been launched for the German legislature, South African parliament, scientific institutions in Berlin, the North Carolina legislature, and PhRMA member organizations.
"There is an incredible yearning in this country and around the world for using technology to provide more transparency about our democracies," Summerswrites in a blog post explaining why he took the time to code the bot. (Summers, who writes on his website that he works for the Library of Congress, declined an interview request.)
At a time when politicians operate under a regime of strict public relations management and there's often a wall between what a politician believes and what he or she is ready to say to the public, the interest in @CongressEdits indicates a hunger for transparency, writes Summers.
"[B]y and large people on Twitter have been encouraging, supportive and above all interested in what their elected representatives are doing," he writes. "Despite historically low approval ratings for Congress, people still care deeply about our democracies, our principles and dreams of a government of the people, by the people and for the people."

KINGSWOOD Primary School have enjoyed a lot of sporting success recently.
The netball team qualified for the Level 3 School Games to be played at Cheltenham College in March.
A school spokeswoman said: "This is a fantastic achievement and everyone at Kingswood Primary School wishes the team the best of luck."
Kingswood also retained the small schools cross country title in the district series at Katharine Lady Berkeley's School.
The children attended the club every Friday after school, whatever the weather, accompanied by founder of the club Ron White, teacher Helen Gibson and several parent helpers.
The Riddiford Shield football tournament provided a great opportunity for Kingswood to show other schools their talent.
In the early round they scored seven goals in one game and overall came second out of five.
Kingswood scored five goals in the final round, winning one and drawing two matches to come fourth out of eight teams.

CivilWarLand in Bad Decline: PrefaceBy George Saunders
We loved Joel Lovell's profile of George Saunders in yesterday's Times Magazine. Lovell quotes generously from Saunders's preface to the new edition of CivilWarLand in Bad Decline. By special arrangement with the publisher, we bring you the preface in full.
This book was written in the Rochester, New York, offices of Radian Corporation between 1989 and 1996, at a computer strategically located to maximize the number of steps a curious person (a boss, for example) would have to take to see that what was on the screen was not a technical report about groundwater contamination but a short story.
I had graduated from the Syracuse MFA program in 1988 and had been writing stories that owed everything to Ernest Hemingway and suffered for that. They were stern and minimal and tragic and had nothing to do whatsoever with the life I was living or, for that matter, any life I had ever lived.
We billed our hours, and I would respond to any disrespect toward my person by declaring (in my mind, always only in my mind): "Thanks, a-hole, your project has just funded a Saunders grant for the arts." And, for an edit that could have been done in an hour, I would bill that program manager's project an hour and a half, then use the liberated half hour to work on my book.
This book.

Charmed: 10 Celebrity Superstitions
Ryan Gosling:
Dead Man's Bones
Considering all the Grammy-winning talent that came out of season six of the All-New Mickey Mouse Club—Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera—it shouldn't come as a surprise that another member of that cast, Ryan Gosling, is one half of a two-man band. Dead Man's Bones began in 2005 when Gosling and Zach Shields began performing their light goth music for friends. They released their first album in 2009, which Rolling Stone described as "Arcade Fire, Tom Waits and the cast of Sesame Street performing a Kurt Weill musical." Most impressive, they played almost all the instruments on the self-titled debut (which includes the track, not to mention that Gosling taught himself piano and cello. As in, Hey, Girl, did you know I can play the cello...?
Zooey Deschanel:
She & Him
Although she sang a bit in Elf and always dreamed of having a musical career, Zooey Deschanel truly found herself as an artist when she sent a demo to musician M. Ward in 2008. "Her voice doesn't sound like anything else that's out there. All I really had to do is press record," Ward told Billboard about their collaboration, She & Him. "I feel like she secretly had been working on a first record for years but kept it under her hat and focused on acting." That first album, the cleverly titled Volume One, contained those early Deschanel songs as well as covers of the Beatles and Smokey Robinson. With the release of Volume Two, Spin declared: "If Zooey Deschanel didn't exist, indie rock would've invented her...fans of '70s AM Gold will sip this stuff down like so much well-aged chardonnay." The duo also released a Christmas album last year, and is it too much to hope that She & Him expand "Who's That Girl? It's Jess," the micro-theme song of Deschanel's sitcom, New Girl?

do you foresee and problems if i convert them in to templates, and if so what?
I like your style. I am no expert myself but i would like to give a friendly review about this.
First One is Awesome except the bottom part which somehow isnt blending well with the overall design.
Second one is perfect as it is.
Third i am not sure of it lacks elements. Try adding more stuff to it like speakers swirls etc. PIMP IT UP.
Cheers bro.
thanks i will pimp it up but not with speakers as every flyer on here has done thats not very original, and making change to hells angel as we speak
I think that if you put a nice gradient or nice looking bakcground ( its a littlebit boring now ) on the second flyer its gonna be a big selling one. Absolutely great design.
"Hell's Angel" -
For this flyer I can see the angel statue/3d rendering located behind the main title being a visual problem in its current form. I would suggest try turning it into a silhouette and leaving it in the same position to allow for better reading and more definitive area differences (my eye seems to get caught up in thinking that angel is somehow part of the main background while being connected to the title/info area).
I think the stroke around the centered DJ/location text forces that particular text out of the uniformity I see between all of the rest of the text in the flyer. I feel something should be done about that stroke… Taking it away. Also, the"J" in DJ doesn't appeal to me with that particular font. I like the rest of the letters and how they flow with each other but that J is strange amongst the rest.
I think the "TalylorMade Entertainment Presents" area might look much better and more uniform with the rest of the design if it had metallic-styled growth vines (similar to the ones in the lower information area) incorporated into it somehow.
Finally, something about that hard, straight edge at the bottom of the lower text area's background just doesn't seem to work for the flyer (in my eyes). The top of that text area consists of completely curves, and this area would be the only area in the entire flyer consisting of a hard straight edge. I would say give a go at expanding those lower vines out towards the flyer's edge to do away with the hard straight, abrupt stop in the text area's design. I feel it would flow better.
"Just Dance" -
I really like this for the most part. I would do something for the purchasers by including a silhouette model and allowing them to use it as a mask/clipping-mask for whatever background image they wanted to replace your multi-face/cityscape background image with.
"A Night Called House of Seduction" -
The background image works very well. I like the fonts and color scheme you've come up with to work with the background image. I really do feel that the lower text area will need more work in alignment, text tracking and size, outline and so forth. The colors, fonts and general idea for this area is good, but it can be dramatically improved.
In conclusion, all of these have the potential to be Graphic River merchandise I feel. See what you can do to to make the improvements necessary for a real finished touch, not only visually, but functionality wise (psd organization) as well. In terms of the amount of work you will need to do to come up with a finished product for each flyer I would say it falls in this manner…
LESS TIME: Just Dance > Hell's Angel > A Night Called House of Seduction :MORE TIME

Epidural abscessAbscess - epidural; Spinal abscess
An epidural abscess is a collection of pus (infected material) between the outer covering of the brain and spinal cord and the bones of the skull or spine. The abscess causes swelling in the area.
Epidural abscess is a rare disorder caused by infection in the area between the bones of the skull or spine, and the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord (meninges). This infection is called an intracranial epidural abscess if it is inside the skull area, or a spinal epidural abscess if it is found in the spine area. Most are located in the spine.
The spinalinfection is usually caused by bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus is most common), but may be caused by fungus. It can be due to other infections in the body (especially a urinary tract infection), or germs that spread through the blood. However, in some patients, no other source of infection is found.
Anintracranial epidural abscess (within the skull). Risk factors include:
- Chronic ear infections
- Chronic sinusitis
- Head injury
- Mastoiditis
- Recent neurosurgery
A spinal epidural abscess may be seen in patients with:
- A history of back surgery or other invasive procedures involving the spine
- Bloodstream infections
- Boils especially on the back or scalp
- Bone infections of the spine (vertebral osteomyelitis)
People who inject drugs are also at increased risk.
Spinal epidural abscess:
- Bowel or bladder incontinence
- Difficulty urinating (urinary retention)
- Fever and back pain
Intracranial epidural abscess:
- Fever
- Headache
- Lethargy
- Nausea and vomiting
- Pain at the site of recent surgery that gets worse (especially if fever is present)
Neurological symptoms depend on the location of the abscess and may include:
- Decreased ability to move any part of the body
- Loss of sensation in any area of the body, or abnormal changes in sensation
- Weakness
Exams and Tests
The health care provider will perform an exam to look for a loss of functions such as movement or sensation.
Tests may include:
- Blood cultures
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- CT scan of head or spine
- Draining of abscess and examination of the material
- MRI of head or spine
The goal of treatment is to cure the infection and reduce the risk of permanent damage. Treatment usually includes antibiotics and surgery. In rare cases, antibiotics alone are used.
Antibiotics are usually given through a vein (IV) for at least 4 - 6 weeks. However, some people may need to take them for a longer time, depending on the type of bacteria and severity of the disease.
Surgery is usually needed to drain or remove the abscess. In addition, surgery is often needed to reduce pressure on the spinal cord or brain, to prevent further loss of function.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Early diagnosis and treatment greatly improve the chance of a good outcome. Once weakness, paralysis, or sensation changes occur, the chances of recovering lost function are reduced. Permanent nervous system damage or death may occur.
Possible Complications
- Brain abscess
- Brain damage
- Bone infection (osteomyelitis)
- Chronic back pain
- Meningitis
- Nerve damage
- Return of infection
- Spinal cord abscess
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if you have:
- Persistent back pain with fever
- Headache with fever
- Other symptoms of epidural abscess
An epidural abscess is a medical emergency.
Treatment of certain infections, such as ear infections, sinusitis, and bloodstream infections, may decrease the risk of an epidural abscess. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent complications.

text: I'm starting a new thread on this because I think the matter is of strategic importance. We all felt for a long time that there's a lot of potential in CTFE, and potential applications have been discussed more than a few times, ranging from formatting strings parsed to DSLs and parser generators. Such feats are now approaching fruition because a number of factors converge: * Dmitry Olshansky's regex library (now in Phobos) generates efficient D code straight from regexen. * The scope and quality of CTFE has improved enormously, making more advanced uses possible and even relatively easy (thanks Don!) * Hisayuki Mima implemented a parser generator in only 3000 lines of code (sadly, no comments or documentation yet :o)) * With the occasion of that announcement we also find out Philippe Sigaud has already a competing design and implementation of a parser generator. This is the kind of stuff I've had an eye on for the longest time. I'm saying it's of strategic importance because CTFE technology, though not new and already available with some languages, has unique powers when combined with other features of D. With CTFE we get to do things that are quite literally impossible to do in other languages. We need to have a easy-to-use, complete, seamless, and efficient lexer-parser generator combo in Phobos, pronto. The lexer itself could use a character-level PEG or a classic automaton, and emit tokens for consumption by a parser generator. The two should work in perfect tandem (no need for glue code). At the end of the day, defining a complete lexer+parser combo for a language should be just a few lines longer than the textual representation of the grammar itself. What do you all think? Let's get this project off the ground! Thanks, Andrei

A Pomona woman received a 47-year state prison sentence Tuesday for causing a crash that killed a man and his pregnant girlfriend in 2011.
Lorraine Martinez, 26, was found guilty by a jury in Pomona Superior Court in March of three counts of murder and one count of grand theft auto, Pomona police said.
Police say Martinez was driving a stolen car east on Holt Avenue on Aug. 1 when she broadsided a 1995 Nissan Maxima at Garey Avenue.
The impact broke the Maxima in half and caused it to burst into flames.
Miguel Herrera, 22, and his 17-year-old girlfriend, Desiree Grajeda, both of Pomona, died and were burned beyond recognition. Grajeda was in her third trimester.
Martinez tried to flee the crash, but was captured. She admitted to being high on methamphetamine, police said.
Martinez had been given an early release from jail the day before on a separate misdemeanor case, which included drug charges and threatening someone with a deadly weapon.

Rep. Janice Hahn handily dispatched fellow Democratic Rep. Laura Richardson in the new 44th Congressional District and said she plans on a repeat performance in November.
With all ballots counted in the 44th Congressional District, Hahn collected 59.8 percent to Richardson's 40.2 percent.
The Hahn-Richardson battle is considered to be the region's marquee race, pitting a pair of incumbents against each other to represent an area that stretches from the Port of Los Angeles to South Gate. The two congresswomen will face off again Nov. 6.
Self-funded independent candidate Bill Bloomfield emerged from a field of seven political novices Tuesday night and will advance to the November general election against veteran Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman in a coastal congressional district that takes in most of the South Bay.
Under California's new voting system, the top-two vote-getters in the primary, regardless of party, will face each other in the general election.
In final, unofficial returns, Waxman captured 45.5 percent of the vote, followed by Bloomfield with 24.6 percent in the primary for the new 33rd Congressional District, which runs from Beverly Hills to Malibu and hugs the coast south to the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
Bloomfield is a Manhattan Beach real estate developer who heavily promoted his candidacy with local cable television advertisements and direct mail.
Following Waxman and Bloomfield were Republican Christopher David with 15.3 percent, Democrat Bruce Margolin with 4.5 percent, Libertarian Steve Collett with 4.2 percent, Green Party candidate David Steinman with 3.4 percent, Democrat Zein Obagi with 1.7 percent and Democrat Tim Pape with 0.7 percent.
As expected, longtime South Bay Rep. Maxine Waters easily won a primary race against fellow Democrat Bob Flores in the new 43rd Congressional District, which takes in Inglewood, Lennox, Lawndale, Hawthorne, Lomita, Westchester, Playa del Rey, Los Angeles International Airport, Harbor City, Harbor Gateway, the east side of Torrance and the unincorporated area known as West Carson.
With all precincts reporting, Waters had 65 percent to 35 percent for Flores. The two will face each other again in November.

With the shift to the new Metro user interface, a lot of people are wondering if Windows 8 is right for them. Those considering an upgrade to Windows Server 2012 should have no such hesitation. As InfoWorld's Oliver Rist said in June: "When Microsoft calls this a 'major' release, the company isn't kidding. Windows Server 2012 really does change the game, and that's across all roles: file sharing, identity, storage, virtual desktop infrastructure, and certainly server virtualization and cloud."
I would add that security improvements alone may justify the purchase for many enterprises. Here's a quick walkthrough of the significant new security features found in Windows Server 2012.
[ Also on InfoWorld: Review: Weighing Windows Server 2012 | 7 ways Windows Server 2012 pays for itself | Get ready for Windows 8 with the Windows 8 Deep Dive PDF special report | Keep up with key security issues with InfoWorld's Security Central newsletter. ]
True UEFI and Secure Boot
Like Windows 8, Windows Server 2012 has replaced the traditional ROM-BIOS with the new and improved industry boot standard known as UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface). Microsoft is using the security-hardened 2.3.1 version, which prevents boot code updates without appropriate digital certificates and signatures. Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 go further and pick up the trustworthy and verified boot process, extending it to the entire Windows OS boot code with a feature known as Secure Boot. Taken together, UEFI and Secure Boot significantly reduce the risk of malicious code, such as rootkits and boot viruses, from taking control of the operating system.
Data center-ready BitLocker drive encryption
BitLocker is finally usable on server systems. Prior to Windows Server 2012, implementing BitLocker on a server meant using either Trusted Platform Module (TPM) chip-only mode, which is the weakest protector in the many offered, or required that a server administrator be present for each boot with a PIN, password, or USB key. That doesn't work so well in a lights-out data center.
A few new BitLocker protectors were added in Windows Server 2012 (and Windows 8) to allow server administrators to enable disk encryption without all the hassles. In particular, many administrators will love the network protector mode, which will automatically unlock the encrypted disk as long as the server is network connected and joined to its normal Active Directory (AD) domain.
But enhanced BitLocker goes even further, with support for hardware encrypted disks (known as SED and ED disks), AD account or group protectors, and cluster-aware encryption that allow the disk to properly failover and be unlocked to any member computer of the same cluster. With these new enterprise-intended features, Windows Server 2012 will be far easier to encrypt with BitLocker than its predecessor.
Early Launch Anti-Malware
Another Windows Server 2012 feature shared with Windows 8, ELAM (Early Launch Anti-Malware) ensures that only known, digitally signed antimalware programs can load right after Secure Boot finishes (although it does not require UEFI or Secure Boot). This way, legitimate antimalware programs can get into memory and start doing their job before fake antivirus programs or other malicious code. Prior to ELAM, a malicious program could do "interrupt or vector chaining" and load before other legitimate programs, thus allowing them to lie to the operating system or antimalware programs.

Last major steel girder rivieted into place
(Cleveland) - The Ohio Department of Transportation hosted a "Topping Out" ceremony Friday to commemorate the completion of structural steel erection on the new westbound Interstate 90 Innerbelt Bridge.
The final steel beam was raised by crane into place over Abbey Avenue in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood.
The steel girder in the "Topping Out" ceremony was adorned with an evergreen tree symbolizing growth and good luck, and the U.S. flag.
The use of a U.S. flag and tree on the steel beam is an American ironworker tradition that dates back to the beginning of the last century.
Walsh Construction and HNTB Ohio, Inc. also took part in the ceremony.
Workers will continue to make smaller steel connections over the next two weeks, with Abbey Ave. remaining closed until it's done.
ODOT'S Jocelynn Clemings says the bridge is scheduled to open in November or December after more than 2 years of construction. About 200 construction workers are at the site.
Heavy equipment operator Tony Earhardt and ironworker Joe Revay celebrate the last major Innbelt bridge connection.
The $293 bridge is the biggest project in ohio department of transpiration history. A second bridge is expected to cost $293 million and is to be completed in the fall of 2016.

Hendrix led the Tornados men's basketball program in the month of January in receiving this award, averaging 14.4 points per game, 2.3 rebounds per game and 4.4 assists per game from the point guard position. Hendrix achieved double figures in scoring in six games, two of which eclipsed the 20 point mark, including a career-high 24 points on January 19th at Lincoln Memorial. Hendrix also recorded a month-high six rebounds on January 12th against Catawba, and also recorded six games with at least three assists and hit at least two three-pointers in four different games in January. For the 2010-2011 season, Hendrix leads the Tornados and is sixth in the SAC in assists and fifth in the SAC in assist/turnover ratio.
These two athletes will be presented with action shots recognizing their award, which will be displayed in the lobby of Boshamer Gymnasium for the entire school year.

Arcadia, CA, April 30 -- HRTV's (R) extensive week-long coverage of the Kentucky Derby will also treat viewers to the premiere of a special documentary, Garrett Gomez: 118 Days, which will provide racing fans with an intimate, up-close look at the champion jockey's intense recovery from a serious injury, and uncover his steely focus of returning to the track and securing a mount in the 138th running of the Derby.
It will air on Thursday, May 3 at 8 p.m. ET. Viewers may preview the documentary via the following link: http://www.tvg2.com/videos/garrett-gomez-118-days-vignette/.
Garrett Gomez: 118 Days was produced for HRTV by accomplished filmmakers, Jackson Nguyen and Todd Crites, of Turn Left Productions, who are multiple national award-winners of both Sports Emmys and Peabodys. They have closely documented Gomez's grueling comeback from a shattered heel, suffered in a freak paddock incident at Santa Anita on January 8.
"From the beginning we all believed that there was a tremendous story," said Nguyen. "What we didn't anticipate was the multiple layers that would reveal itself through the process. Luckily we were there to capture all of it with a cinematic approach, which is a tribute to Garrett and those he surrounds himself with. We thought we had an idea of what a jockey and the world of horse racing had to offer, but quickly realized that we've only scratched the surface."
The documentary adroitly outlines Gomez's recovery from a serious injury, and his self-imposed deadline to return to regain his health, return to the saddle, and gaining the all-important mount in the quickly-approaching "Run for the Roses." It includes exclusive interviews with his wife, Pam; his agent, Tony Matos; and surgeon, Dr. Kenneth Jung. Gomez reveals the roller coaster of emotions regarding the unknown timetable as he mends from the surgery, and his insatiable quest to win his first-ever Derby.
Viewers are afforded a rare, behind-the-scenes glimpse of the Eclipse Award-winning rider's personal life, detailing his first pre-mature attempt at a comeback on March 9, as well as life away from the track -- including relaxing and recuperating on the golf course, and spending time at his farm in Norco.
The documentary also follows Gomez's trip to Keeneland and the eventual securing of Daddy Nose Best as his mount for this year's Derby.

LONG BEACH — Hello, Mr. Buffett — are you listening?
Unsatisfied with interactions with officials at the rail giant Burlington Northern Santa Fe — a subsidiary of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. — a number of neighborhood and environmental groups from West Long Beach and Wilmington are trying to go straight to the top.
The groups, who oppose the proposed creation of a $500 million railyard project on the border of Long Beach and Wilmington, have created a six-minute video that they sent last week to Buffett.
The video, in addition to arguing against the project and the adverse effects they say it will have on the nearby neighborhoods and schools, also asks Buffett to come and visit.
It has been posted on YouTube at http://bit.ly/Is15bx.
The group hopes Buffett, who has received positive coverage for his philanthropy and positions on taxes and health care, will be moved by their pleas.
"It's a positive message," said John Cross, president of the West Long Beach Association. "We just want someone to come out here. We've talked to BNSF, but they've done a full-court press (to pass the project)."
The video, which was culled from more than 50 hours of footage, according to Cross, features residents, activists, children, education and medical personnel arguing against the proposal.
Representatives from the groups, who call themselves the Green L.A. Port Working group, are also planning to go to Omaha, Neb., next week for a Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting.
The groups have also attached a letter with the video. It says, in part: "We invite you to visit our community so that you can see for yourself just how unwise placing a railyard in our community would be rather than putting it on the Port's dock."
Cross says he sent a letter to Buffett nine months ago, and calls to Buffett's home offices have referred him to BNSF.
The 153-acre rail proposal has stirred considerable opposition in the neighborhood, which has been dubbed "the diesel death zone," and from Long Beach council members in adjacent areas. The Long Beach Unified School District is also opposed.
A draft environmental impact report on the proposal was submitted and a final report is expected in the summer.
"We don't want your money, Mr. Buffett," Cross said. Rather, he thinks it would be better spent on an on-deck rail facility.

This weeks Designer Spotlight focuses on Maaike van der Horn, whose fascination with 3D printing led to its application in her traditional gold-smithing work.
Photo by: www.moniqueroodenburg.nl
Tell us a little bit about yourself: Who are you? Where are you located?
My name is Maaike van der Horn and I design jewelry, both 3D printed and made with traditional techniques. I live in Amsterdam and my jewelry brand is called MCODE
What's the story behind your designs?
How big is our freedom of creation? I use free open source software like SketchUp to design, and I am completely self-taught in 3D design. I started with SketchUp tutorials via YouTube and step by step I learnt. I get so inspired by the idea that everything is possible and that the freedom of creation is endless. I love how anyone with an idea can now make their idea come to life, without the need for formal training or large budgets. My designs are a demonstration of this freedom of creativity.
What inspires you?
I remember drawing patterns for hours on end as an eight-year old, entranced by their beauty and how these patterns evolve and change depending on how you look at them. I often get inspired by all kinds of buildings and architecture; be it by 1930's buildings while cycling through Amsterdam or by highway structures while I am driving. My favourite bracelet design was actually inspired by a highway noise reduction barrier! I study at the School for Goldsmithing in Schoonhoven, The Netherlands. Many of the things I design are so complex that they would not be possible using traditional techniques, and I love how 3D printing takes jewelry design to the next level.
What brought you to 3D printing with Shapeways?
Two years ago I first learnt about 3D printing from a newspaper article and was instantly fascinated. I visited the Shapeways website and read about how to 3D model with SketchUp and Blender, and it went from there! Sometimes I wonder if I should start using more professional tools but exploring how far one can get using free software is essential to my work.
How do you promote your work?
I love to connect via my Facebook MCODE page and I love to tell about how I learnt to 3D design and to create when meeting customers. My main message is that the fun and delight of creating is now accessible to anyone.
Who in the Shapeways community has served as an inspiration to you?
Of course Nervous System has been a great inspiration. Their designs, their concept and their story match perfectly. Also, Theo Jansen's Strandbeests never fail to amaze me.
Check out Maaike's jewelry on her Shapeways Shop or her Etsy Shop and if you'd like to be featured in the next Designer Spotlight, email email@example.com.

LENEXA, KS -- Redemption Plus has acquired Aquabi Toy Co. (Iowa), a three-year-old company that develops open market toys. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Aquabi Toy's client base includes small specialty retailers, as well as small to midsize mass retailers.
Kyler Tarwater, the former vice-president of Aquabi Toy who joined Redemption Plus in June, observed that the Aquabi brand focuses on creating in-store impulse value where final purchase decisions are made. "An Aquabi dollar item will have the same look and feel of a major branded item," he said.

Compiled and edited by Charles J. Kappler. Washington : Government Printing Office, 1904.
{Page 846}
SIR: I inclose a copy of a letter from Messrs. George Smith and P. O. Johnson, missionaries of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Michigan, addressed to Rev. Dr. Durbin, and by him forwarded to this office, in relation to certain desired reservations of public lands.
In consideration of certain contemplated arrangements with the Indians in Michigan during the ensuing spring, I have to ask that you reserve from public sale the lands designated in the letter of Messrs. Smith and Johnson.
I have also received a communication from the Rev. J. P. Durbin, corresponding secretary of the Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, asking for an additional reservation of lands near Iroquois Point, back from the lake.
For the reasons above, I concur in the request, and ask that several additional sections to those already reserved be made of the lands in the vicinity of Iroquois Point.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
GEO. W. MANYPENNY, Commissioner.
JOHN WILSON, Esq.,
Commissioner of General Land Office.
SIR: I have the honor to transmit a communication from the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, addressed to this office, bearing date the 11th instant, and its inclosure, recommending, for reasons stated, the withdrawal from marked and reservation for Indian purposes the lands in Isabella County, Mich., or so much thereof as may be deemed expedient.
The pink-shaded lines on the inclosed printed map show the limits of Isabella County, covering, according to the maps of this office, townships 13, 14, 15, and 16 north, of ranges 3, 4, 5, and 6 west of the Michigan meridian, in the Ionia district, the whole of which are requested to be reserved, and the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, placed on certain townships, show the order of the preference to be given should it be determined to reserve less than the east half of the county.
From an estimate just made at this office, it appears that only about two-ninths of the whole surface has been disposed of, although three of the townships have been in market since 1833, and the balance since 1840.
As regards the conditions mentioned in the Rev. George Smiths letter (among the papers), that the reserve be made for the Chippewa Indians of Michigan, to be purchased under the direction of the mis-
{Page 847}
sionary society, etc., I have to remark that no such privilege could, in my opinion, be given without legislation of Congress.
I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
JOHN WILSON, Commissioner.
Hon. ROBERT MCCLELLAND,
Secretary of the Interior.
SIR: I have the honor to submit herewith two letters from the Commissioner of the General Land Office in relation to the withdrawal of certain lands in Michigan from sale with a view to the benefit hereafter of certain Indian tribes, in accordance with the intimations of the Indian Office.
The first letter, that of the 20th of December last, has reference to lands in Isabella County, Michigan, and that on the 10th instant to land in a new county called Emmett, in the same State, the former county containing 16 and the latter 27 townships and fractional townships, and the withdrawal appears to be desired by the Indian Office in consequence of certain contemplated arrangements with the Indians in Michigan during the present spring. The matter connected with the letter of the 20th December has been delayed, waiting more specific information from the Indian Office as to the specific land wanted, which is supplied by this letter of the 10th instant from that office.
The philanthropic policy of furnishing these Indians, who are desirous of becoming cultivators of the soil, with land for that purpose, to the greatest possible extent separated from evil example or annoyance of unprincipled whites, who might be disposed to settle in their vicinity, or within their midst, after farms already opened by them had rendered the surrounding land more valuable, is apparent, and I have no hesitation in recommending your sanction to the withdrawal of the lands indicated in each of said communications from the Land Office, but it must be with the express understanding that no peculiar or exclusive claim to any of the land so withdrawn can be acquired by said Indians, for whose future benefit it is understood to be made, until after they shall by future legislation be invested with the legal title thereto.
With much respect, your obedient servant,
R. MCCLELLAND, Secretary.
The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
Let the withdrawal of all the vacant land in Isabella County be made with the express understanding contained in the letter of the Secretary of the Interior to me of the 12th instant.
(Superseded by treaty of August 2, 1855, with Chippewas of Saginaw, Swan Creek, and Black River, 11 Statutes, 633.)
SIR: I have the honor to transmit herewith, for your consideration, a copy of a letter from Agent Leach, in which he recommends that
{Page 848}
townships 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, and 39 north, range 4 west, and townships 34, 37, 38, and 39 north, range 3 west, be withdrawn from sale, with a view to an enlargement of the Little Traverse Reservation.
In his annual report for 1863 (see Annual Report of this Office for 1863, pages 377 and 378), Agent Leach gives his reasons at length in favor of an enlargement of the Little Traverse Reservation, with a view to the removal of the Indians from Mackinac, Beaver Island. Thunder Bay, and those east of the Grand Traverse Bay, and locating them all upon the Little Traverse Reservation, thereby greatly reducing the expenses of the agency and, as hoped, much improving the condition of the Indians.
Concurring in the views expressed by Agent Leach in his report above referred to, I respectfully recommend that the townships named in his letter be withdrawn from sale, with a view to the proposed enlargement of the Little Traverse Reservation.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
W. P. DOLE, Commissioner.
Secretary of the Interior.
Respectfully submitted to the President with the recommendation that the lands within described be withdrawn from sale for the purpose indicated.
J. P. USHER, Secretary.
Let the lands be withheld from sale as recommended.
Referring to Executive order dated April 16, 1864, withdrawing from public sale, for Indian purposes, the undisposed-of lands embraced in townships 34, 37, 38, and 39 north, of range 3, and townships 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, and 39 north, of range 4 west, in the State of Michigan, I hereby revoke, rescind, cancel, and declare said order to be void and of no effect from and after the date hereof, and the lands above described are hereby restored to the public domain.
SIR: I have the honor to submit herewith a communication from the Commissioner of Indian Affairs, of the 20th instant, requesting that the following-described tracts be withdrawn from market and reserved for the Ontonagon band of Chippewa Indians under the sixth clause of the first article of the treaty of La Pointe of July 30, 1854, viz: Lots Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 of section 14, township 53 north, range 38 west, Michigan meridian; lots Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 of section 15, township 53 north, range 38 west, Michigan meridian; southwest quarter and southwest quarter of southeast quarter of section 15, township 53 north, range 38 west, Michigan meridian; the whole of sections 22
{Page 849}
and 23, township 53 north, range 38 west, Michigan meridian; north half of section 26, township 53 north, range 38 west, Michigan meridian; north half section 27, township 53 north, range 38 west, Michigan meridian; all situated in the northern peninsula of Michigan.
On examination of the plats and tract-books in this office it appears that the above lands are all vacant, and there exists no objections to their reservation; for which I respectfully recommend that the order of the President be obtained previous to instructing the land officers.
I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
THOS. A. HENDRICKS, Commissioner.
Hon. ROBERT MCCLELLAND,
Secretary of the Interior.
Respectfully submitted to the President for his approval as recommended.
R. MCCLELLAND, Secretary.
Let the reservation be made.
SIR: I inclose herewith a copy of a communication from the Commissioner of Indian Affairs dated at Detroit, the 1st instant, received here this morning, in which he requests that several townships, sections, and parts of sections of land within the State of Michigan, in addition to those heretofore withdrawn from sale, be also withdrawn, in order to enable the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians to select the quantity guarantied to them by a treaty concluded with them on the 31st ultimo.
I have, therefore, respectfully to recommend that, in addition to the tracts heretofore withdrawn from sale with a view to accommodate the Indians of Michigan, the following designated tracts be also withdrawn from sale, and that the usual measures be taken by the Commissioner of the General Land Office to give proper publicity to the fact, viz:
Sections 13, 14, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28, in township 47 north, range 5 west.
