'"He's the ultimate two-way defenseman. He can and does provide offense, but he does it with minimal risk to his game," current RPI head coach and former DU assistant Seth Appert told Inside College Hockey. "When he contributes offensively he does it by making great decisions. Chris is a rare defenseman that runs the first power play, but can also match against the other team's top line."'

To be honest, I don't have the answer to this question, but there are several things you can do.
For one, you won't need to rely on this if you purchase a 3rd party WNIC (like the ASUWO36H whcih works rather well, as do most otehr WNICs with the RTL8187 chipset from Realtek).
You could also do what I've done in the past. I went into a local Best Buy and found a display laptop vof the same line as the one I planed to purchase. I booted to my Backtrack USB and ran aireplay-ng -9. This command tests for injection. For more on this command see the man pages, http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=injection_test.

Carrie Underwood & Taylor Swift take front and center on 'Family Guy'
Listen to Carrie Underwood on iHeartRadio | Listen to Taylor Swift on iHeartRadio
During last night's (March 16) episode of Family Guy, Carrie Underwood's faith became the center of attention. Following a major loss of the Patriots against the Buffalo Bills, Peter, Quagmire, Joe and Cleveland go on a mission to find God. "Guys, I'm tired of God messing with football," Peter proclaimed, rather agitated. "We gotta do something about it. We gotta find God and tell him to cut the crap."
When the group attempts to research where God lives, they stumble upon a newspaper headline that reads: Carrie Underwood Credits Her Success To Personal Relationship With God.
"You think she knows where we can find him?" Cleveland pondered aloud.
"I'm sure she does," Peter replied. "She's smart. She won her job in a contest. Guys! We're going to Nashville."
The guys then sojourn all night to the Country Music Awards to find Underwood, who they believe will hold the key to finding Jesus' father. "You know [the awards] are huge because [they're] on a Tuesday night," Peter said as they headed backstage. "Hey look! There's Taylor Swift! And there's Taylor Not-So-Swift."

— Jonathan Haysom (@JonoH) March 17, 2014
Peter then approached Underwood: "In that song 'Jesus Take The Wheel,' was that like the real Jesus or was it just some Mexican guy?"
The cartoon Underwood, a little miffed by his question, replied, "No, it was the real Jesus." Upon realizing she doesn't quite know where to find God (other than him being everywhere all the time), Peter, Quagmire, Joe and Cleveland decide to continue their quest for answers. Cartoon Jesus then entered, accusing cartoon Underwood, "Hey! You know I don't like you talking to other guys…"
"I'm sorry Jesus," Underwood apologized. "Whatever," he shot back, hands on his hips. "Give me 40 bucks. I want to buy a Toby Keith hat." Hilarious!

Ok, I am hoping someone could help me out here. I have a query which is not working properly and is driving me crazy.I have two tablesdata_table = my main working tabledaily_removed = same structure as main table, but less records
what I would like to do isupdate the column (Status) in the data_table, for all records where the PiNumber is listed in the daily_removed table
This is where it gets weird for me... when I do
select count(data_table.PiNumber) from data_table
inner join daily_removed ON
I get a total of 1528 (which is the correct number) of matching records in the two tablesBut when I go to update the Status column using
UPDATE data_table
INNER JOIN daily_removed
ON data_table.PiNumber = daily_removed.PiNumber
SET data_table.Status='removed';
only 1214 Records get updated. '
Also, as a side note I added exactly 1214 records to the daily_removed table today ...
What could possibly be happening??Let me know if I need to post additional info, but any advice would be greatly appretiated.
This is most likely because you have duplicates in the daily removed table.
If you look at the UPDATE query how many were already on the status 'removed'? For example:
mysql> select * from users;
| uid | username | name |
| 1 | Tom | Ron1 |
1 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> update users set name = 'Ron1' where username = 'Tom';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1 Changed: 0 Warnings: 0
You can see in this example, there was a matching row but nothing was changed.
Thank you for taking the time to reply.I also thought about how many records currently have the Status 'removed' - but none do ... i even changed the value of all of the records (in both tables) to have status 'active' ... and tried the update query then, but still got the same result.
In fact, when I run my update query above ... and then do a seperate query to count the number of records in my data_table with Status removed... I get 1215 which is the same number that was updated ...(but should have been 1528)
The duplicate suggestion may have something to it, I definetely have duplicates in my daily_removed (and data table) ... and I have tried joining on other fields as well but with same result ... I guess I will have to try and join on all of the fields (perhaps I joined on ones that have same values)
This is driving me crazy!
Try this to see how many records should be updated:
[[B]select[/B]](http://search.mysql.com/search?site=refman-%35%31&q=SELECT)
[count](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/%35.%31/en/group-by-functions-and-modifiers.html)(data_table.PiNumber)
[[B]from[/B]](http://search.mysql.com/search?site=refman-%35%31&q=FROM) data_table
data_table.PiNumber IN (
I'm betting this will return your 1214. once confirmed, you should throw in some criteria to make sure status does not already equal removed.
Thanks ... you were right, your query returned 1214 rowsBut I am still stuck, lol
When I use this query, I still get the same number of rows 1214 What am I doing wrong?
BTW, before I run this query RecordStatus for all records is set to 'active' in both data_table and daily_removed
UPDATE data_table
INNER JOIN daily_removed
ON data_table.PiNumber = daily_removed.PiNumber &&
data_table.DDate = daily_removed.DDate
SET data_table.Status='removed'
WHERE data_table.Status = 'active'
Where are you running this query? in the mysql client? in phpmyadmin or heidisql or some other GUI or in a front end application you haven't mentioned?
Secondly, why the redundant table? why not simply update the main table and forget about the second table altogether? Unless you are talking 10s or 100s of millions of rows of data performance won't be affected simply by having a few thousand or hundred thousand rows extra.
Hi, I am running this query in phpmyadminI have 4 working tables
data_table = main working tabledata_table_temp = daily data comes indaily_removed = every day, all records in data_table that are not in data_table_tempdaily_added = every day, all records in data_table_temp that are not in data_table
Basically, every day I get a file which i load into the data_table_temp ... I then take all new records and store in table daily_added, I also add a copy of the new records to my main table (data_table)
For the removed records, I keep a copy of all the records removed in the daily_removed table, but I also want to update my main working table in a column to say removed.
The reason I am keeping a copy of the removed/added records in separate tables = no particular reason, I guess I could keep everything in the same table, just seemed more organized.
But I still don't understand why the query above did not update all 1528 rows
You're not doing anything wrong. 1214 IS the amount of rows you should be updating. Just because you have dupes in the daily removed table doesnt mean your going to make an update multiple times in the data table.
If there are no duplicates in the data table, but there are duplicates in the daily removed, then an inner join between the two will always inflate your number greater than whats actually in your data table (WHICH IS WHAT YOUR UPDATING!) That's why I gave you this code:
[[B]select[/B] [URL="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/%35.%31/en/group-by-functions-and-modifiers.html"]count(data_table.PiNumber) [URL="http://search.mysql.com/search?site=refman-%35%31&q=FROM"][B]from[/B]](http://search.mysql.com/search?site=refman-%35%31&q=SELECT) data_table WHERE data_table.PiNumber IN ( SELECT data_table.PiNumber FROM daily_removed GROUP BY data_table.PiNumber )
Notice the group by clause? This eliminates dupes from daily removed. This query that I just gave you will return the CORRECT number of records that should be affected in your update query.
Thanks very much, makes senseI had to fix the code which adds data to the daily_removed table to prevent it from storing duplicates.

He deserved what he got. Stupidity is what gets you caught.
Why does this thread continue to go on? Who cares what YOU bring, everything you shouldn't bring has already been listed, whether or not you choose to bring these things is up to you. I don't really care......
The other day I was in an alley where I had put some tags and the cops drove in. Luckily I didn't have any paint on me but the pigs saw my pilot and paint stains on my bag. So they searched my bag and found my black book. Them they checked all the walls around the alley for my tag. By chance they didn't notice I was leanning against it.
It is the only place I know Where death is most alive It is when truth is turned to lie That death is most alive
You people are so stupid. YOU CANNOT GET SEARCHED WITHOUT CONSENT. IF THEY START TO SARCH YOU, SAY NO, AND THEY HAVE TO STOP. IF THEY SERCH YOU WITHOUT CONSENT, ANYTHING THEY FIND WILL BE OVERLOOKED, THEY ARE THE ONES IN THE WRONG.
Some of you are just to stupid to think about this.
At the time I didn't give a shit cause I knew I had done nothing wrong so it just gave me something to do before my nightbus.
It is the only place I know Where death is most alive It is when truth is turned to lie That death is most alive

Avril Lavigne rocked a black dress on her wedding day
Listen to Avril Lavigne on iHeartRadio | Listen to Nickelback on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - Avril Lavigne said Chad Kroeger let her "take the reins" when it came to planning their wedding and she turned it into a true rock 'n' roll celebration … complete with a black dress.
The "Here's to Never Growing Up" singer went the nontraditional route for her second trip up the aisle, donning a black tulle Monique Lhuilliergown for her July 1 wedding to the Nickelback singer in the South of France. It was strapless and featured a full, but not princess-like, bottom.
The 28-year-old's long hair, which was loosely curled, cascaded down her back, and she had on light-catching jeweled crown-type headpiece. It seemed fitting as the wedding took place at Chateau de la Napoule, a medieval castle near Cannes. So she still had a true princess moment.
Kroeger matched his bride in black. In the photographs taken outside their wedding venue — as they watched a fireworks on a balcony — he wore a suit in the dark hue and the same color button-down shirt.
The wedding was an all-night party fit for rock stars, as omg! detailed here, with dinner not being served until 1:30 a.m., the cake cutting at 3:30 a.m, and guests partying until 6 a.m. However, Hello!magazine reports that the candlelight ceremony was "emotional and intimate" for the couple and their 110 guests.
"I wanted to make sure it's a crazy vacation and an experience of a lifetime for our guests," the bride told the magazine.

Two weeks later the Corner House girls saw the Ypsilanti lady and her troublesome little girl off on the train for the west.
Ypsilanti agreed to raise the standard of revolt in Moldavia.
And his wife choked on her tea at the wonderful train-change that had come over the best man in Ypsilanti.
Yes we do, too, declared the lady from Ypsilanti, interrupting Ruth.
Each is about as large as Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor put together.
She spent the last money she had in getting here from Ypsilanti.
One afternoon in the early part of his junior year, Florence and he were driving on the middle road to Ypsilanti.
I cant pay her fare to Ypsilanti, but I wont refuse her a home.
Kolokotrones, calling out the last men from Tripolitza, relieved Ypsilanti at Argos.
A Greek insurrection under Ypsilanti in 1821 led to the storming of the city by the Turks in 1822.

"Oh please, please keep these cool and original ideas for white tee shirts coming! I love these. The Tulip cannon paint technique/kit seems like the coolest thing since sliced bread. I am new to paint and stencils for clothing items, so if I seem overly excited that would explain it. I'd like to make a shirt exactly as shown. The orange and the pink are so very trendy."
"just looking for baby blanket crochet patterns"
"It has been my long term goal to be able to jazz up an existing top and make it my own by adding a lace inset such as this. Really! I always have all these great ideas in my head but seeing as how I am not a seamstress, I never know how to go about it. So, thank you very much for this simple to execute lace inset design with instructions. I like that it uses washable glue!"
"After reading this super fast and easy DIY, so many uses come to mind for this spray paint tie dye technique! Wouldn't it look so cool on a 100% cotton white sheet set? Flat, fitted, and the pillow cases, too! Oh my gosh, for your student's dorm room! Also, buy your shirts and cotton shorts from Michaels craft stores when they're on sale. How about using more than one color spray paint? Make stripes. Actually, that would be pretty difficult and painstaking to do because you'd have to alternately cover the accordion folds and be real careful not to get fly away paint to land where you don't want it to. In any case, I love this craft!"
"The pinwheel quilt pattern is one of my favorites! I made pinwheel baby quilt many years ago when my son was a newborn. I especially love this pillow, because it allows quilters to learn how to make the pattern on a much smaller scale than it would be with a quilt. This pillow would make a great gift for just about anyone!"

Hi, I'm Anshu. I blog about sewing over at Blooms And Bugs. I'm an engineer by day but sewing is the thing that gets me out of the bed every morning.
I have been sewing and crafting for as long as I can remember. I started sewing while imitating my aunt, whom I looked up to as a child. After dabbling in painting, crochet, and various other hobbies I finally realized that sewing is what I love most.
I stopped sewing for a few years because I was studying/working in a highly competitive field which didn't leave
much time for anything else. The birth of my daughter a couple of years back nudged me back to my sewing machine.
I started out with sewing a few dresses for her and just couldn't stop. Currently she's my main muse and model but I love sewing for kids and just look for an excuse to make something for the kids around me.
I blog at Blooms And Bugs about my sewing adventures, and I also have a small etsy store with the same name. Feel free to visit me anytime!

SAL Prospects: Expect Starling to shine
Royals' top pick in 2011 makes full-season debut with Legends
By Sam Dykstra / Special to MLB.com | April 6, 2013 6:00 AM ET
Here's a ranking of the 10 prospects we're most excited to see light up the South Atlantic League in 2013:
No. 1: Bubba Starling (OF, Lexington Legends): The long-awaited full-season debut for the Royals' top prospect (No. 26 overall) is upon us. Starling, the fifth pick in the 2011 Draft, will bring his entire toolbag to a Lexington squad that should already be stacked with talent. His defensive prowess is enough to catch the eye, but he stands to make a jump with the bat in 2013. The 20-year-old outfielder put up solid numbers at the plate and on the basepaths with Rookie-level Burlington last season -- .275/.371/.385, 10 homers, 33 RBIs and 10 steals in 53 games -- but if he can mature as expected with his hitting approach, he'll continue to be the talk of the league.
No. 2: David Dahl (OF, Asheville Tourists): The 10th pick in last June's Draft was an instant success in the Rookie-level Pioneer League, where he won MVP honors after batting .379 with a 1.048 OPS and 41 extra-base hits (22 doubles, 10 triples, nine homers) for Grand Junction. Imagine how those numbers will translate to a full season. OK, they'll probably take a dip in a larger sample against better competition, but Dahl certainly possesses enough skills to produce eye-popping numbers. Like Starling, he might be most fun to watch in center field, where he possesses an above-average glove and a cannon of an arm.
No. 3: Chris Stratton (RHP, Augusta GreenJackets): After posting a combined 5.25 ERA in his first two years at Mississippi State, Stratton took a sizable jump forward in his final season with the Bulldogs, posting an 11-2 record with a 2.38 ERA, 127 strikeouts and just 25 walks in 109 2/3 innings in the SEC. The Giants liked what they saw and took the 6-foot-3 right-hander with the 20th pick in the Draft. Now in Augusta, Stratton brings a solid four-pitch mix that should keep SAL batters guessing when he's on the mound.
No. 4: Lucas Sims (RHP, Rome Braves): The Braves took Sims one selection after the Giants picked Stratton last year, and the 18-year-old finds himself one spot below his Augusta counterpart here. But don't get us wrong, there's just as much to like about the Georgia native in his return to the Peach State. The lanky right-hander's strengths lie in his fastball and curve that have the chance to be dominant.
No. 5: Brandon Nimmo (OF, Savannah Sand Gnats): Similar to Royals fans and Starling, Mets fans have been anxiously anticipating Nimmo's first full season in the Minors. A 19-year-old center fielder from Wyoming, Nimmo's skills are solid across the board, but he has room to grow in terms of power and average. (He batted .248 with 20 doubles, two triples and six homers for Class A Short-Season Brooklyn in 2012.) If he can continue to show a mature approach at the plate -- his had a .372 OBP with the Cyclones -- the other categories could follow in due time.
No. 6: Roman Quinn (SS, Lakewood BlueClaws): If you want to impress your friends and predict the most likely player to next reach 100 stolen bases in the Minors, you could do much worse than mention the Phillies' No. 5 prospect. Quinn, whom scouts rate at an 8 for speed on a 2-8 scale, swiped 30 bags in 66 games with Williamsport in his rookie campaign. The BlueClaws might want to keep the green light on for the 19-year-old shortstop whenever he reaches base, which could happen quite a bit. Quinn has the skill set necessary to repeat his .281/.370/.408 NYPL line in the South Atlantic League.
No. 7: Raul Mondesi (SS, Lexington Legends): For the time being, he is perhaps best known as the son of a two-time Gold Glover with the same name. The younger Mondesi, however, has plenty of time to make a name for himself as he makes his full-season debut. Entering the season at 17, his glove and arm from the shortstop position will stand out. He batted .290 with a .733 OPS as the Pioneer League's youngest player. If he can reproduce such numbers against SAL pitchers, the youthful switch-hitter should continue to climb the ladder quickly.
No. 8: Joey Gallo (3B, Hickory Crawdads): After being taken 39th overall in the 2012 Draft, Gallo proceeded to put up impressive stats in the Arizona League. The Las Vegas native's 18 home runs were an AZL record, not to mention his .293 average, 1.169 OPS and 43 RBIs in 43 games. After a promotion to Class A Short-Season Spokane, he finished the year with 22 blasts in 59 games. Without a doubt, Gallo is the early favorite to lead the South Atlantic League in homers. Not bad for a guy who could've been drafted as a pitcher.
No. 9: Mauricio Cabrera (RHP, Rome Braves): With Sims and Cabrera, the R-Braves have the most exciting rotation duo in the circuit. The latter's fastball is downright electric, reaching 97 mph at its top speed. The 19-year-old's curveball and changeup need more time to develop, leading some to think his future might be in the bullpen. But he should be effective as Rome's No. 2 starter.
No. 10: Hansel Robles (RHP, Savannah Sand Gnats): For a reason to watch the Mets' No. 13 prospect, look no further than the way he ended the 2012 season for Brooklyn. Robles didn't allow a single earned run in his last 36 innings for the Cyclones, meaning he's entering his first season with the Sand Gnats on an offseason-stalled hot streak. The 5-foot-11 right-hander will rely on a solid fastball, while his slider and changeup continue to develop. If Robles can keep the walks low again -- he issued 10 in 72 2/3 innings a year ago -- he shouldn't have trouble finding success, albeit perhaps not at the same level as last year.

We have to get our stories straight, she and I, but first we have to get John Updike's stories straight. I have just bought the Everyman edition of The Maples Stories, and I am trying to describe to my date the arc of the Maples' marriage and why I think these stories are successfully erotic, how they bring the best out of Updike.
I am actually talking about myself, about all the stuff I've read, but that's okay. As last of the male narcissists, Updike would understand. She understands. We are both rehearsing our lines for the evening over a curry somewhere in North London. It is exceptionally, reproachfully cold, and neither of us feels particularly well-equipped to withstand the inclement weather. My shirt makes me look like a Bond villain and feels like a rumpled parachute. The curry is the wrong kind of hot. She asks the most difficult question of all.
"How are you going to pass me off?"
I struggle to reply. She is both my date and not my date. She is the girlfriend of an old friend, and I have been instructed to show her a good time, in return for temporary London accommodation. I am being conspicuously trusted. We are getting to know each other, having only met twice before tonight, but I must be very transparent because she quickly settles on an apt description of our relationship.
"I know," she says, patting me gently on the arm, "we'll say I'm your chaperone."
She makes me sound like a debutante and, in a sense, this is accurate. This is the first time I have attended the Bad Sex in Fiction Awards, but the same is true for her. Read More

Nurses look to leadership role in healthcare changes
As the healthcare landscape changes, nurses are on the front lines.
South Carolina nurses will discuss the future of their profession March 25 in Columbia at the 2011 Nursing Leadership Summit.
USC College of Nursing Dean Peggy Hewlett, Dr. Michael Bleich, dean of Oregon Health and Science University School of Nursing, and Dr. Marilyn Schaffner, chief nurse executive at the MUSC hospital, will keynote the conference.
Nurses from around the state will use the conference to determine ways to implement recommendations from an Institute of Medicine report, "The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health." The report, published in October, detailed key issues addressing the role of nursing in the healthcare challenges ahead.
The report calls on nurses to achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system, to become full leadership partners with physicians and other professionals in redesigning the country's healthcare education and delivery systems and to establish an improved data collection and information infrastructure.
"With nurses comprising the largest sector of the healthcare delivery system in this country, the Institute of Medicine report recommends that registered nurses (RNs), from all settings and all educational levels of preparation, need to become actively involved in nursing leadership positions, decisions and policy-making," Hewlett said. "The profession has historically looked to those RNs holding leadership jobs to take on this role, but the time has come for every nurse to become involved in shaping the emerging healthcare system."
Hewlett said the IOM Committee on the Future of Nursing set the agenda for the profession on the national level, and now leaders in each state are charged with coming up with their own implementation plans.
"South Carolina nurses are stepping to the plate," she said "The SC One Voice, One Plan Consortium has been a major player in addressing nursing workforce issues for several years. Taking on the implementation of the IOM recommendations in our state is a natural next step for our constituents. The major difference this time is that we are calling on nurses from every corner of the state to become active in addressing the needs of nursing's future, which in turn directly impacts the future health of the people we serve."
The nursing profession plays a vital role in healthcare across the country and in South Carolina. With the implementation of the 2010 Affordable Care Act, nurses have an opportunity to be active participants in the transformation of healthcare education and delivery, Hewlett said.
Conference sponsors include the SC Center for Nursing Leadership, the statewide One Voice One Plan Consortium, the Office of Healthcare Workforce Research for Nursing, and the SC Future of Nursing Taskforce. Nurses and others vested in healthcare issues from across South Carolina will attend, along with invited guests from the state policy groups.

Currently, Saku holds victories over TWO top 10 Light HeavyWeight fighters, one former UFC HEAVYWEIGHT champion, a former UFC Welterweight champion (one weight class above LW), and four members of the legendary Gracie family. His only losses, except for the very weird fluke loss to Nino Schembri, are against either the number 2 (or one in some circles) LHW, and current Pride MW (just another term for LHW) champion Wanderlei Silva. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (the twin brother of the Pride HW champion) who is a top 10 LHW. The man who was universally recognized as a top 5 HW and who just challenged for the HW title, Mirko CroCop, or the man who was THE #1 HW in the world, Igor Vovchanchyn, and that was a fight during which Saku was clearly winning for the first 10 minutes, before he finally lost all his energy (which was the result of having fought for 90 minutes earlier in the night). What is truly scary is that by most accounts, Saku was competitive with "Lil Nog", was firmly in control of CroCop until suffering an unfortunate eye injury, and actually had Silva in a choke during the 2nd fight. In fact, probably the only reason Silva was able to escape the choke was because he had such a weight advantage over Saku.
Plus your pure hatred for Bisping is clouding your judgement.

The Lucifer Effect: Understanding how Good People Turn Evil
Random House, 2007 - Psychology - 551 pages
What makes good people do bad things? How can moral people be seduced to act immorally? Where is the line separating good from evil, and who is in danger of crossing it?
Renowned social psychologist Philip Zimbardo has the answers, and inThe Lucifer Effecthe explains how–and the myriad reasons why–we are all susceptible to the lure of "the dark side." Drawing on examples from history as well as his own trailblazing research, Zimbardo details how situational forces and group dynamics can work in concert to make monsters out of decent men and women.
Zimbardo is perhaps best known as the creator of the Stanford Prison Experiment. Here, for the first time and in detail, he tells the full story of this landmark study, in which a group of college-student volunteers was randomly divided into "guards" and "inmates" and then placed in a mock prison environment. Within a week the study was abandoned, as ordinary college students were transformed into either brutal, sadistic guards or emotionally broken prisoners.
By illuminating the psychological causes behind such disturbing metamorphoses, Zimbardo enables us to better understand a variety of harrowing phenomena, from corporate malfeasance to organized genocide to how once upstanding American soldiers came to abuse and torture Iraqi detainees in Abu Ghraib. He replaces the long-held notion of the "bad apple" with that of the "bad barrel"–the idea that the social setting and the system contaminate the individual, rather than the other way around.
This is a book that dares to hold a mirror up to mankind, showing us that we might not be who we think we are. While forcing us to reexamine what we are capable of doing when caught up in the crucible of behavioral dynamics, though, Zimbardo also offers hope. We are capable of resisting evil, he argues, and can even teach ourselves to act heroically. Like Hannah Arendt's Eichmann in Jerusalem and Steven Pinker's The Blank Slate,The Lucifer Effectis a shocking, engrossing study that will change the way we view human behavior.

Valentine's Day is almost here. Grocery store shelves are already filled with Valentine sweets. Florists are gearing up for their busiest season of the year, and romantic partners are hopefully planning for their big date. But how do you celebrate the day if you aren't involved in a romantic relationship? Here's an idea: treat yourself to a fun relationship workshop. Romantic relationships influence many areas of life. Learning to have positive, healthy relationships is important for single adults of all ages. Choosing to attend a relationship education workshop can help improve your current relationship, improve your ability to recognize when it is time to move on, and help you prepare for a significant, long-term future romantic relationship. Catholic Social Service is offering a free six-week healthy relationship class at the Catholic Social Service office in Great Bend, 2201 16th Street, every Tuesday from February 5th to March 12th, between 10:00 am and 12:00 pm. Lunch will be provided at the end of each class.Relationship education workshops are focused on building skills to help individuals succeed in their romantic relationships. Led by trained facilitators, the workshops feature fun, interactive exercises designed to help individuals improve their communication skills, manage conflict, strengthen their ability to decide, identifying healthy relationship behaviors, seek a good match, stay safe, speak for yourself, know when to take a time out, and problem solving. Many of these skills are valuable in professional and family relationships, too. Participants may be in a dating relationship, single, or even considering marriage, but the workshop is designed for individuals, not couples. Participants will examine past or present relationships, their values, how family relationships may impact their relationship expectations, and what commitment and forgiveness mean to them. Registration is required by January 31, 2013. For more information, or to register, please call the Catholic Social Service office at 620-792-1393.

Arm Wear
Super Warmers
Full Summer Protectors
3/4 Summer Protectors
Full Arm Protectors
3/4 Arm Protectors
arm wear > Manifesto™ Full Length Summer Arm Protectors
Arm warmers are the UBIQUITOUS cycling accessory. Everyone owns a pair, or two, or three, or many more. Until this moment, they have served a singular purpose: to keep the chill at bay so we can throw a leg over the bike when the weather objects to such dedication. Behold, a NEW DAY DAWNS.
Designed to reduce road rash abrasions from crashes.
We use our patent-pending Hoplite Armor™ technology on the outer edge of each arm to help REDUCE ROAD RASH abrasions from crashes. The outer material is a polyester waffle knit, while the inner material is an exotic Swiss-made fabric, Flash, which uses polyester yarn against the skin for wicking, and nylon yarn on the outside for rapid drying. The Flash textile is treated with coldblack®, which reflects the heat and helps lower the temperature at the skin interface by 9ºF (5ºC).
We built these things to be VERSATILE. You can wear them from start to finish of an event, or simply tuck them in your back pocket until you approach the dicey closing kilometers. And you can use them as ordinary late-spring / early fall warmers. Great for the 'cross season.
Choose your length.
We produce arm warmers in 2 lengths: traditional full length, or 3/4 if you like to feel the breeze on your forearms.
Pick your inner-arm material.
For most conditions we recommend our Flash option. It has unrivaled thermoregulation properties and dries ultrafast. If you live in extreme heat, give our Ariane versions a try. This lightweight polyester mesh is ideal when the pavement starts to melt under searing heat.
• Hoplite Armor™ technology on outer edges of arms using waffled polyester fabric to reduce road rash
• Internal seams for less sliding friction, less aerodynamic drag
• Silicone-coated elastic grippers
• Available in full-length and three-quarter versions
• Inner arm fabric choice of ultrafast drying Flash, or polyester Ariane mesh

WATCH: Florida Georgia Line Reveal New Single 'Dirt'
Listen to Florida Georgia Line Radio on iHeartRadio
Florida Georgia Line is back with a brand new single, "Dirt." The song is the lead-off single from the duo's upcoming second album. Not only did the guys share their new song, but they also shared the accompanying music video too! Check it out below:
Florida Georgia Line will debut "Dirt" on NBC's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" Tuesday night. The guys will also make an appearance on "Live with Kelly and Michael" Wednesday morning, and perform "Dirt" along with their most recent chart-topper, "This Is How We Roll."


text: A new report in US Weekly says that Charlize Theron and Sean Peen are planning to marry this summer and adopt a child. Slow down there Charlize. You really should think this one through. You want to marry a guy who has already been divorced twice and loves hookers as much as Charlie Sheen? This is the same guy that took a hooker with him on a vacation with his wife. That is the guy you want to marry and adopt a child with? Yeah, yeah, I get the whole helping Haiti thing and you can deal with the chain smoking and never showering, but this is who you want to be linked with forever when you adopt a child together? Sean is directing Charlize in a new movie they are filming in South Africa so, since they will be in Charlize's home country this would be the perfect time. I think what it will be is Sean going all Sean while directing Charlize and she will realize that maybe the two of them are not a good fit. At all. If they do get married it won't last long so hopefully they wait before they adopt.

Farm to Table Hawaii
Hawaii is becoming a magnet for devoted foodies, connoisseurs and anyone who's willing to try something new, so it's no surprise that Hawaii's farm to table movement is creating quite a culinary stir. Just stroll through any local farmers' market on Oahu, Maui, Kauai and Hawaii Island and you'll be surprised by the abundance of locally grown and locally made foods, like sweet Kula strawberries, handmade cheeses from Surfing Goat Dairy, Big Island Abalone, and rich Wailua-grown chocolate.
Now imagine these flavorful ingredients in the hands of Hawaii's top chefs and you're in for a delicious treat. Since arriving in Hawaii in 1988, Chef Mavro Mavrothalassitis has embraced the multi-ethnic people and foods of Hawaii and become a champion of dozens of boutique farmers and specialty fisherman. "Sometimes buying local means the cost is higher and sometimes it takes more time, but the reward is huge. Local farmers succeed and my guests enjoy fresh, regional ingredients and a dining experience they could have only in Hawaii."
On Maui, Chef James McDonald showcases island-grown ingredients at his three restaurants, PacificO, IO and the Feast at Lele, explaining that Hawaii's farm to table offerings are unlike anywhere else in the world.
Malama Aina
While the concept of local, sustainable eating may be new to some cities, "malama aina" or "caring for the land" is a belief that's deeply rooted in Hawaii's culture. In the days of Hawaiian chiefs, land was divided into ahupuaa (ah-who-poo-ah-ah), mini eco-systems that spanned from the mountains to the sea. Each pie-shaped parcel was a self-contained land management system in which farmland, fresh water and ocean resources were carefully maintained.
Today, the renewed interest in sustainable agriculture is yielding delicious surprises throughout the state. Discover farm to table freshness for yourself on Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Hawaii Island and Lanai.

Sandy • A unique visitor dropped by Dimple Dell Canyon Monday.
A hyper-maneuverable helicopter, called a Kaman K-Max, spent Monday clearing flammable trees and brush from the canyon in preparation for the upcoming fire season.
"It's quite a piece of machinery," said Jason Curry, a public information officer for the Division of Forestry, Fire & State Lands. "We wouldn't be able to do this without it."
The bird is able to move in close areas and tow more than 3 tons. Its visit will be short, ending Tuesday, as it costs about $4,000 an hour to operate.
A $300,000 grant from the U.S. Forest Service made it possible to finally remove the flammable brush from the 644-acre Dimple Dell Canyon; as a protected wildlife area, the city would not allow motorized vehicles into the ravine to tow the debris. Firefighters have spent more than 800 hours clearing 150 acres of brush by hand.
One of hundreds of targeted areas in Utah, Dimple Dell is a "wildland-urban interface," an area where residential and rural districts mix. The fire fuel reduction in the ravine is an ongoing effort to reduce the risk of embers jumping from forest to rooftop and setting houses ablaze during dry summer months.
Monday and Tuesday's operation is a joint effort of the National Forest Service, the Division of Forestry, Fire & State Lands and Sandy City.
"This is a perfect example of how people can use what resources they have available to make their communities safer," said Craig Erickson, a Sandy firefighter and grant organizer. Erickson said the combination of federal, state and city services is the concept behind the Community Wildland Protection Plan, an initiative to cover at-risk communities such as Dimple Dell.
"It's all about being flexible," Erickson said. "The federal and state governments have the resources, and the city has the maneuverability to actually do what needs to be done."

Former Congressman Bob Ney Speaks Candidly about His Conviction, Congress, Corruption and His New Book, Sideswiped: Lessons Learned Courtesy of the Hit Men of Capitol Hill
Though it has been at least seven years since the scandal involving high powered lobbyist Jack Abramoff shook Washington, D.C., there are still pieces to the story being revealed. There seems to be a consensus in America that today's political leadership leaves a lot to be desired. Many believe there is an unhealthy mix of lobbyists and money with self-interested politicians all too open to being influenced on issues based on who curries favor with them.
Former Republican Congressman and House Administration Committee Chairman Bob Ney of Ohio was entangled in the Abramoff lobbying scandal and ended up serving 17 months in prison. In his new book, Sideswiped: Lessons Learned Courtesy of the Hit Men of Capitol Hill the former Congressman offers a candid portrayal of the conflicts of interest and corruption currently damaging America's political system.

Disney's Universe of Energy could be so much better
I went to Disney World over the holidays. Among other things, I got to revisit the Universe of Energy at Epcot Center. There's a lot to like about this attraction, but I'd like to challenge Disney to do better.
The Universe of Energy is largely the same as it was during my last visit ten years ago, and it has aged well. I loved watching Ellen DeGeneres and Bill Nye the Science Guy make energy interesting and fun, and my whole family got a kick out of seeing Jamie Lee Curtis play an energy expert named Judy.
The attraction does a good job of explaining why energy is important and where it comes from. In that inimitable Disneyesque way, through film, animatronics, and cool people-movers, it takes the audience on a journey through time, from the big bang to the formation of fossil fuels to the development of advanced oil and gas extraction, nuclear energy, and renewables. The roof of the Universe of Energy pavilion is covered in 80,000 photovoltaic solar cells that partially power the battery-electric traveling theater cars.
But with a potential audience of Disney World's 40 million visitors per year, the attraction misses a couple of key opportunities. First, in a 45-minute program, there is just this one mention of global warming:
Ellen: "What about global warming?"
Bill Nye: "It's a hot topic with lots of questions."
Please. With the wealth of information on climate science out there, Disney can do better than this. And I can't imagine this is all these two influential celebrities want to say about one of the most important challenges facing the world.
Second, while the program mentions the importance of energy conservation and energy efficiency, it could do so much more. It could tell the millions of Disney World visitors how they can reduce their energy use, save money, and help protect the climate. Disney could give them all kinds of information like we have on the C2ES Make an Impact site.
At an adjacent Epcot attraction, Spaceship Earth, each visitor interacts with an onboard computer to create an imaginary future world. The Universe of Energy could use similar technology to help visitors learn about the many energy-saving opportunities that exist at home, in the car, at work, and at school – from changing light bulbs to adjusting tire pressure.
Come on Disney. Help us all have a magical, energy-saving day.

Mason Rudolph Championship Awaits Women's Golf
Sept. 19, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – Fresh off a first-place finish at the "MO"Morial Invitational to kick-off the season, the University of Kentucky women's golf team returns to the course Sept. 20-22 in Franklin, Tenn., at the Mason Rudolph Championship. The 54-hole stroke-play tournament will be played at the Vanderbilt Legends Club North Course.
After an individual championship at the "MO", freshman Haley Mills will represent the Wildcat lineup in the No. 1 position for the first time in her career. The lineup is rounded out with sophomore Sarah Harris, senior Liz Breed, freshman Alessandra Walker and sophomore Cylia Damerau.
UK placed three golfers in the top 10 at the "MO"Morial with Mills and Harris taking first and second and Breed tying for seventh. As a team, the Wildcats won the tournament by an astounding 11 strokes at eight-over par. UK posted a final-round score of two-under par, 286, which ranked as the third-lowest round in program history.
"We have had a quick turnaround from our last trip and I know the team is ready to get back on the road," said Kentucky head coach Golda Johansson Borst. "This tournament is one of our toughest this fall and I am confident that our team will play with the same poise and patience that they did last week."
This marks the second-consecutive season UK will partake in the Mason Rudolph. Last season, Kentucky placed eighth at the prestigious tournament, led by former Wildcat Ashleigh Albrecht, who tied for 23rd.
"The golf course sets up similarly to Traditions Club last weekend, which means that we need to place the ball around the greens, but we can also play aggressively, and that will suit our team well," Borst said.
Eighteen holes will take place on Friday through Sunday, with fixed tee times on hole one and
10 starting at 9 a.m. ET on Friday and Saturday and 8:30 a.m. ET Sunday. The Vanderbilt Legends Club North Course will feature a par-72, 6,337-yard setup.
The three-day tournament will feature 15 of the top women's golf programs in the country. Joining the Wildcats are No. 16 Alabama, No. 20 Arizona State, No. 17 Auburn, Baylor, No. 19 Duke, Michigan State, North Carolina, No. 5 North Carolina State, Princeton, Texas, UCLA, Vanderbilt, No. 24 Virginia and No. 11 Wake Forest.
The initial Golfstat rankings were released Wednesday, Sept. 18, with UK checking in at No. 9.

Xavier picked 7th in BIG EAST
NEW YORK - Marquette, which shared the 2012-13 BIG EAST regular-season crown, has been picked to win the 2013-14 title in
Head coach Buzz Williams led Marquette to a 14-4 BIG EAST record en route to a share of last year's conference title. The Golden Eagles finished 26-9 overall. This year, Williams can look to a pair of senior forwards, Davante Gardner and Jamil Wilson, for leadership and production. The duo combined to average 21.2 points and 9.7 rebounds per contest. Gardner, usually the first person off the bench, won the BIG EAST Sixth Man Award.
Georgetown finished a close second in the poll with 70 points, which included two first-place votes. The Hoyas were in a three-way tie with Marquette for first place last year at 14-4 and finished 25-7 overall. Coach John Thompson III must find a way to replace BIG EAST Player of the Year Otto Porter, Jr., but he can build around All-BIG EAST First Team guard Markel Starks.
Newcomer Creighton has been slotted for third place with 61 points. The Bluejays picked up one first-place vote. Last year, Creighton put together a 28-8 record that included advancing to the third round of the NCAA Championship. Coach Greg McDermott has four returning starters, including his son, Doug, who has been a consensus All-American for the past two seasons.
Villanova edged St. John's for fourth place with 58 points. The Wildcats were 20-14 overall and 10-8 in the BIG EAST last season. They earned an NCAA Championship for the eighth time in the last nine years. Forward JayVaughn Pinkston and guard Ryan Arcidiacono figure to be the leaders of head coach Jay Wright's club.
St. John's received two first-place votes and finished fifth in the poll with 56 points. The Red Storm's 2012-13 season ended in the second round of the NIT. Coach Steve Lavin welcomes back sophomore forward JaKarr Sampson, who was the BIG EAST Rookie of the Year. Chris Obekpa, another freshman, led the nation in blocked shots.
Providence is tabbed for sixth. Last year, the Friars played in the postseason for the first time since 2009. With two wins in the NIT, head coach Ed Cooley helped PC get their first postseason victories since 2003. This season, the Friars return sharpshooting guard Bryce Cotton, who led the BIG EAST in scoring with a 19.7 average in all games and 18.3 in league play.
Xavier was placed seventh in the poll. The Musketeers are coming off a 17-14 season under head coach Chris Mack who will depend on guard Semaj Christon, a sophomore who was the Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Year after averaging 15.2 points. His assist total of 139 set a
Seton Hall finished eighth in the poll. The Pirates expect Fuquan Edwin to lead an ascent in the standings. Edwin is one of the top all-around players in the BIG EAST. The 6-6 wing was named Preseason All-BIG EAST Second Team by the coaches. He averaged 16.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.4 steals.
Butler, chosen for ninth, is coming off another NCAA season. The Bulldogs are led by new head coach Brandon Miller, who played and was an assistant coach at Butler. The Bulldogs have a streak of eight straight 20-win seasons, including a 27-9 campaign last year, and have been ranked in the top 10 five of the last seven seasons. Their top returnee is senior forward Khyle Marshall.
DePaul is 10th, but has the dynamic duo of forward Cleveland Melvin and guard Brandon Young, both seniors. Young was sixth in the BIG EAST in scoring with a 16.7 mark and Melvin was seventh at 16.6. They were the highest scoring pair in the league.
2013-14 Preseason Coaches' Poll
- Marquette (5) 74
- Georgetown (2) 70
- Creighton (1) 61
- Villanova 58
- St. John's (2) 56
- Providence 41
- Xavier 38
- Seton Hall 20
- Butler 19
- DePaul 13
First-place votes in parentheses.
Creighton forward Doug McDermott, a two-time consensus All-American, has been selected unanimously as the 2013-14 BIG EAST Preseason Player of the Year by a vote of the league's head coaches. St. John's freshman forward Rysheed Jordan was named BIG EAST Preseason Rookie of the Year.
In an era when heralded college basketball players are usually turning professional as soon as they can, McDermott has returned to Creighton for his senior season. He averaged 23.2 points per game last year while helping the Bluejays to a 28-8 record. He also averaged 7.7 rebounds and shot 49 percent from 3-point range. He led the nation with 834 total points. McDermott is already the school's all-time scorer with 2,216 points. Creighton will be playing its first season in the BIG EAST in 2013-14.
Jordan is a 6-4 guard who is considered one of the nation's top recruits. Last year, he helped Robert Vaux High School in Philadelphia win the Pennsylvania Intercollegiate Athletics Association Class A state championship. He averaged 24.8 points and 6.1 rebounds and was named PIAA State Player of the Year.
The 2013-14 Preseason All-BIG EAST First Team includes three seniors, a junior and a sophomore. The seniors are Georgetown's Markel Starks, Marquette's Davante Gardner and Providence's Bryce Cotton. The junior is D'Angelo Harrison of St. John's, and the sophomore is Semaj Christon of Xavier.
Starks was an All-BIG EAST Third Team selection last season after averaging 12.8 points and helping Georgetown to a share of the league's regular-season title and a 25-7 overall record. The dependable guard was third in the BIG EAST in 3-point shooting, making 41.7 percent.
Gardner won the BIG EAST Sixth Man Award. He averaged 11.5 points and 4.8 rebounds despite playing only 21.5 minutes per game for Marquette, which also grabbed a share of the regular-season crown with Georgetown. In the NCAA tournament, Gardner was named to the All-Eastern Regional Team.
Cotton, a 6-1 senior, was the BIG EAST scoring champion last year and a first-team All-BIG EAST pick, averaging 18.3 points per game in conference play. He also led all league players with 56 3-point baskets in BIG EAST games. His 19.7 scoring average in all games ranked 22nd nationally. Cotton is the only All-BIG EAST First or Second Team selection who is returning to the conference this season.
Harrison is a 6-4 guard who was third in the BIG EAST in scoring last year with a 17.8 average in 27 games. He was named to the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association All-Met First Team. In two seasons, he has already scored 1,025 points.

In addition to hearing fascinating tales of participants' old family homes with kitchens constructed from peach crates, cheese packaging used for insulation and old newpapers as wallpaper, I got tips for researching the cigar store and other ancestral homes, such as my great-grandparents':
And I smuggled some tips from the chat to share with you all! (The conference participants can download chat transcripts to keep.) Here they are:
If you missed the Virtual Conference, the 15 video classes (see a few of them listed here) will be available soon at ShopFamilyTree.com.
And if you're particularly interested in house histories, we also have a digital download guide to researching houses in ShopFamilyTree.com.
In this episode, former Pittsburgh Steelers player Jerome Bettis visits Kentucky to learn about his mom's roots. He didn't trace as many generations as in some other episodes, but I liked the attention spent on each person.
Bettis, an African-American, turned to newspapers for details not documented in official records. He found references to court cases for his great-grandfather being struck by his boss, and in a separate incident, his great-great-grandfather being hit by a train.
The deck was stacked against each man in his case, but Bettis discovered in court records that his great-great-grandfather Abe Bogard won his complaint against the Illinois Central Railroad. Bettis actually got to talk to someone who remembered hearing about the case from men employed by the railroad at the time.
One of my favorite aspects of this episode was the way a Western Kentucky University history professor showed Bettis how to trace his family into slavery. Presuming that the name Bogard was taken from a former owner, Bettis found a white Bogard family in the area and checked will records and slave dower lists (reports of slaves women had inherited).
They found a Jerry and Eliza, with a son Abe. I can't imagine the feeling that would hit you when you see a record showing that your family members were owned by other people, and monetary values placed on their heads.
The owner, Joseph Bogard, willed Bettis' ancestors to his wife. After she died, Abe and his parents were sold off to separate owners. The good news is that the 1870 census, the first US census to name former slaves, showed the family was reunited.
Here's a Western Kentucky University article about the professor's work with Bettis.
Here's a FamilyTreeMagazine.com article about making the jump from freed slaves in the 1870 census to enslaved ancestors in the 1850 and 1860 slave schedules.
Best records for finding female ancestors
You'll discover more research strategies and details of our female ancestors' lives with the tools in our Women's History Month Value Pack, specially priced at $29.99 (a 59 percent discount) in March.
I'll be watching as part of our Virtual Conference viewing party (even though Bettis played for the Cincinnati Bengals rivals, the Pittsburgh Steelers).
In this video, Bettis visits the land where his enslaved third-great-grandfather lived and worked.
If you're recreating family recipes, you'll also want to refer to our list of old measurements and their modern equivalents.
Our book From the Family Kitchen: Discover Your Food Heritage and Preerve Favorite Recipes by Gena Philibert-Ortega, now available for pre-order in ShopFamilyTree.com, has tons of advice on finding vintage cookbooks and recreating recipes.
From the Family Kitchen also covers the social history of food and contains a recipe journal so you can write down how to make Mom's delicious banana bread.
Wondering what this Virtual Conference thing is? I'll tell you: It's an opportunity to improve your genealogy skills and network with other researchers while hanging out at home in your pajamas (or at the coffee shop, let's hope in your regular clothes).
You'll log in anytime during the weekend to watch video classes, participate in live chats, visit our virtual exhibit hall and pick up your swag bag.
We've got 15 video classes to choose from. Some of them are:
And chat topics include (but aren't limited to):
I watched the show online, which is a bit of a problem for me because I want to sit there and do research, so then I had to watch it again. The ratings are already out and apparently this episode did the best of any so far. Who doesn't love Reba McEntire?
Here's the full episode if you still need to watch it:
She started the show at her family ranch in Oklahoma and traveled to Aberdeen, Miss.; Raleigh, NC; Oxford, NC; Tappahannock, Va.; and England in pursuit of her mom's family tree.
I was surprised to see Josh Taylor (formerly of the New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS), now of FindMyPast.com) walk into the library in Aberdeen. This scene was in the clip I posted Friday, but I had assumed they were at the NEHGS library in Boston.
One theme is McEntire's discovery of her family's slave-owning past. When she's confronted with her fourth-great-grandfather's life as a slave trader, I like what the archivist says, that slavery is part of all of our histories.
Later, she learns the same ancestor's grandfather (McEntire's sixth-great-grandfather) came to the country as a 9-year-old indentured servant. He was one of the fewer than half of all indentured servants who lived long enough to become free citizens—and became successful enough to purchase land.
When she learned the boy's father put him on the ship, McEntire cautions herself against drawing early conclusions. Good for her: Before making judgments about an ancestor's actions, it's a good idea to learn the context of their lives.
I like the variety of records used in this episode (though we didn't see where Josh found his information). Censuses, obituaries, land records, tax records, newspapers (she used GenealogyBank at the Granville County courthouse, but they didn't show the name of the site), slave bills of sale, deeds, baptismal registers and more.
You can read a litle about McEntire's ancestral journey in this Tulsa World article (McEntire grew up on a ranch in Chockie, Okla.).
Here's a preview of the show in which McEntire learns family information from D. Joshua Taylor, formerly of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and now chief genealogist at FindMyPast.com.
Taylor explains a bit about why names appear spelled differently in historical records and hints at some "very interesting things" happening in one of the counties where an ancestor of McEntire's lived—I guess we'll have to watch the show to find out what those things are.
And here's McEntire in Chesire, England, searching for records on an ancestor who was baptized there in 1688—and seemingly sent away to the American colonies at just 9 years old.
Watch "Who Do You Think You Are?" on NBC tonight at 8 /7 Central.

HUNDREDS attended the funeral of a 105-year-old who has been called the "Queen Mother" of Lacey Green.
Constance Baker, who was known as Connie, died on January 23.
Her funeral was held yesterday at The Chilterns Crematorium in Amersham, which hundreds of well-wishers attended.
Michael Hardy, who is the Honorary Secretary of Lacey Green Windmill Restoration Committee, read an eulogy at the service.
He said: "Living her whole life in one village, Connie grew up with many people that became life-long friends. But she was just as welcoming to people who moved to the village in more recent years, such as ourselves 30 years ago.
"As we have heard, Connie's life was focused around her family's business at Gomme's Forge. My involvement with the windmill means that we can claim to be one of the Forge's oldest customers. Naturally, many local farms have also been their customers."
She requested people wore colourful clothes to her funeral, which reflected her personality. She had a busy social calendar and attended as many village events as possible.
She was able to live in her home almost to the end of her life, with the help of her family.
Connie, whose husband, Fred, died in 1988, had three children- Graham, Jenny and Geoff, who all live in the area and four grandchildren. She was also a Great Grandmother.
Many of her early memories of the village have been recorded including her recollections of the Chapel and its Sunday School.
Michael, who knew Connie best from the horticultural society, said she also encouraged new ventures in the village.
He said: "In 1991 Ted Janes founded the walking club, and Connie was on the first walk, then aged 83. By the club's 20th anniversary, they wrote that, at the age of 103, Connie was finding stiles a bit challenging."
For her 100th birthday, her family took her to London for a day, which included a river cruise and a ride on the London Eye.
She arrived for her birthday party at the village hall in a 1938 Morris.
Pam Smith, from Walters Ash, who knew Connie for more than 70 years, said: "She always said what she put towards her old age was black coffee and a fag. She also ate a lot of cabbage.
"She was a wonderful lady- she really was. I will greatly miss her."
Another friend, Rosemary Mortham, said "She was very special, our Connie. We have lost the Queen Mother of the village.
"She seemed to feel it was her duty to go every where and be the figure head for the village.
"She attended all village events right up to the end. We shall miss her a lot."
Donations made at her funeral will go to Rennie Grove Hospice Care.

Masterson flirts with no-no as Indians avoid sweep
MINNEAPOLIS -- Justin Masterson took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning, Michael Brantley hit a bases-loaded triple and the Cleveland Indians beat the Minnesota Twins 7-1 on Sunday to avoid a three-game sweep.
Masterson (11-7) had faced the minimum through six, allowing only a hit batter, when Brian Dozier led off the seventh with a broken-bat blooper to center field that dunked in under the glove of a sliding Drew Stubbs for a double.
The Indians led 3-0 on Mike Aviles' sacrifice fly and two-run homer by Jason Kipnis when they loaded the bases with one out in the fifth on a walk to Kipnis and consecutive singles by Nick Swisher and Carlos Santana off starter Scott Diamond (5-9).
With right-hander Anthony Swarzak warming in the bullpen, acting manager Terry Steinbach -- in charge because Ron Gardenhire had the flu -- visited Diamond on the mound. Diamond got Mark Reynolds to pop out to first for the second out, but Brantley hit a liner to the wall in right-center for a standup triple that cleared the bases and ended Diamond's day.
The Twins scored when Dozier came in from third on Joe Mauer's one-out grounder to second that was bobbled by Kipnis for an error, his second in two days. But the first-time All-Star also homered for the second time in two days, both opposite-field liners to left.
Diamond, the Twins' best starter last season as a rookie (12-9, 3.59 ERA), gave up six runs, five earned, on seven hits and three walks as the left-hander lost his third straight decision. He hasn't won since beating the White Sox on June 20, and his ERA rose to 5.53.
Masterson finished the seventh before being pulled after 91 pitches for right-hander C.C. Lee. Masterson, also selected to his first All-Star team this year, was charged with an earned run on one hit and struck out eight in his first victory since June 30 against the White Sox. He lowered his ERA to 3.60.
Masterson plunked Aaron Hicks in the elbow in the third inning, but Hicks was thrown out attempting to steal for the second out and Pedro Florimon grounded out to end the inning. That was as much as the Twins could muster against Masterson until the seventh, when Dozier looped the first pitch into shallow center.

South Jordan • Bingham's Ashton Henderson emerged from the Miners' locker room Saturday afternoon with tears flooding her face.
Some might cry out of elation after hitting a game-winning shot, but the tears were due to a much more important reason than Bingham remaining undefeated.
Henderson's mother gave birth to a baby a month premature earlier this week. Henderson has been switching between drives to Ogden and watching her siblings while her mother is in the hospital. She missed two days of practice during the week but came through in the clutch, securing a 34-31 Bingham win on a 3-pointer with 1.8 seconds remaining. The 3 capped a quarter in which Henderson scored all seven of the Miners' points.
"Just a long week," she said.
Even so, Henderson felt a responsibility to make the last shot with the clock winding down.
"I just decided I had to make it for my team," she said. "I got the chance to shoot it, so I better not screw it up."
Henderson finished with nine points.
The game was a departure from the norm for Bingham (10-0), as the Miners were held to more than 18 points below their season average thanks to stingy Layton defense. The Lancers (7-3) jumped out to an early 13-4 lead before Bingham tied it at 16-16 midway through the second quarter with sharp defense of its own.
Layton entered the break with a 24-20 edge, and the teams combined to score just 25 points in the second half. A fan even pleaded at one point for the referees to throw out a yellow flag indicative of a football game.
"We had to dig deep and find it within ourselves," Henderson said. "That was a great team we played. They have a great coach, and we had to play together."
Miners coach Rand Rasmussen enjoyed the victory but said other factors increased his joy.
"We got lucky at the end," he said. "The ball could've gone in or out. The reason you play Layton is not for your record. It's to have [Layton coach Van Price] show you what you need to fix in your own program."
Jillian Powell led Bingham with 12 points, while Maddi Smith had eight for Layton.

The following are guidelines for presenting mathematical papers at sectional meetings:
There are two types of methods available to speakers for presenting papers: computer projectors (LCDs) or overhead projectors. An LCD is provided in all session rooms. Elaborate equipment requests may not be granted because of budgetary constraints. In most cases, requests made onsite cannot be accommodated, also for budgetary reasons. Laptop presentations are highly recommended.
The most frequent complaint heard at meetings is that the speaker's transparencies are unreadable. Although transparencies for the overhead projector can be written on while the talk is in progress, you are strongly encouraged to prepare them in advance and test them out with a projector. Writing as you lecture is not a good idea. For one thing, it invites recording too many details. In addition, if you make an error, you will either fail to notice it or else will cross it out and correct it. Either way the audience is distracted.
If you write by hand, use a #2 lead pencil on sheets of ordinary white 8 1/2" x 11" paper. Otherwise, you must photocopy your material before putting it through the transparency maker. Never write in script; it is too difficult to read. If you prepare a transparency by hand, you should print. (This does not mean all caps.) Prepare all pencil copies on a hard-surfaced desk or table, not on a cloth-covered table, blotter, or other resilient surface. There should be no smudges, erasures, or corrections on the paper as these will show on the finished transparency. Only copy written in pencil, or produced by laser printer or photocopy machine, is suitable for feeding through the machine. Copy produced by any type of pen or dot matrix printer must be photocopied first.
Overhead projection equipment is relatively easy to use; however, a speaker unfamiliar with the overhead projector should practice with it prior to the lecture in order to become familiar with its features and feel comfortable with it during the lecture.
For maximum effectiveness in the use of the projector, please note the following suggestions:
A laptop computer and one computer projector are provided. Two overhead projectors and two screens are also available to lecturers who deliver invited addresses of 50 minutes or longer.
Invited speakers are usually scheduled to speak in large rooms. Accordingly, the characters on the transparencies need to be even larger than usual.
Please Note: Invited 50-minute speakers who need to illustrate while lecturing will be provided with a supply of blank transparency sheets and an overhead projector pen. Use only black, blue, green, or red overhead projector pens. Do not use pink, yellow, orange, or any pastel colors.
The AMS Meetings and Conferences Department is available to assist you in answering any questions you may have about preparation of your talk. For questions, call 1-800-321-4267, ext. 4138 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
