- Great sheepskin value Review by "Vito" Genova
While I purchased my US Authentic ANJ-4 used, I must say I am very impressed by the quality and fit of this jacket. The ANJ-4 was a short-lived jacket for the military and this model is somewhat close to the second "generation" of the style. Other repro manufacturers like Eastman (especially), Aero, and Lost Worlds offer slightly more authenticity with their products, but only die hard collectors and history buffs would noice the difference between those more expensive brands and the US Authentic model.
Some may argue that horsehide facings would be more historically accurate but I find that the hard wearing goat used in this style actually makes for a more pliable and comfortable jacket. The sheepskin itself is top notch as is the quality of construction.
This jacket has come in handy with the sub-zero weather we have been experiencing as of late. A warm and cozy jacket, the ANJ-4 only comes out when the temperatures hit 20 F or below. Even in below freezing temperatures the wearer can get by with only a light shirt underneath. It almost makes me wish for colder and longer winters!
My experience with this jacket has convinced me to order a horsehide A-2 model from US Authentic this spring.
Well done! (Posted on 2/2/2014)
- Quality merchandise Review by Robert Winter
The ANJ 4 arrived this morning and fits well. We are having almost annoyingly mild (above average temps with clouds, fog and melting) so it's "flight test" as a Minnesota-grade jacket awaits; but the styling and freedom of movement are everything the picture shows and the ad describes.
That it feels a bit warm in this 35 degree weather bodes well. It replaces an Avirex B-3 which I bought 20 years ago and which, as even leather does, has shrunken rather drastically about the stomach. I first became aware of the ANJ 4 about a year after getting it, wished I had, but until coming across yours had found it almost impossible to find and, then, made very badly.
Hope all's well with you and yours and thanks, yet again, for quality merchandise, well-made. (Posted on 7/28/2010)
- Very impressive coat Review by John Beacon
Just a note to say the ANJ-4 arrived today in less than a week from the time I ordered it!. Not only was delivery for this custom made coat impressive, but the fit is perfect. We discussed what I wanted on the phone on Monday and by Friday it arrived. The quality of materials and craftsmanship is exceptional and every bit equal to the three other coats you have made for me over the past four years. I may like the ANJ-4 the best, although it may be one of the most expensive you produce, the detail and quality is worth the price. It is a handsome looking coat in the photo and every bit as much when it arrived. Thanks!

Should Employees Get Insurance Discounts for Completing Wellness Programs?
Employers have a vested interest in encouraging their workers to do things like eat right, exercise and not smoke: Healthy employees generally are more productive and have lower medical costs than their less-healthy colleagues.

More in Big Issues: Health Care

To that end, a growing number of companies are implementing workplace wellness programs, many of which include incentives that reward workers for doing things like getting a physical or hitting the gym. More employers are even tying wellness-program requirements to health-insurance premiums, offering discounts to those who achieve health goals or successfully complete company wellness programs.
That has some advocates concerned. They say if premiums go down for some they will go up for others, and the last thing a wellness program should do is make health care more expensive for the people who need it most.
Proponents say insurance discounts can be good motivational tools when combined with other things. They also say they're fair, noting that people with zero lifestyle-related health risks spend a lot less on medical care on average than those with many risks.
Yes: Financial Incentives Can Be a Good Motivational Tool
By Michael P. O'Donnell
I fully support employers implementing "wellness incentive" programs in which employers offer lower health plan premiums to employees who achieve health goals (like not smoking, having normal biometrics, and normal weight), or participate in programs to make progress toward those goals.
I think about this from three perspectives: What drives healthy behavior? What is equitable? What is financially sustainable?
• Behavior: Financial incentives are very effective in getting people to do simple, short-term things, like participate in a health screening. Studies have shown that program participation rates can be pushed from 40% without an incentive to more than 70% with a $200 incentive and to 90% when incentives are built into health-plan premiums or deductibles. There is also good evidence showing that incentives are effective in motivating people to continue performing the behaviors they are already performing, like exercising, eating nutritious foods, etc. There is limited research showing that incentives such as gift cards, cash prizes and extra time off increase participation rates, but these types of incentives are challenging to administer because of handling and tax issues and aren't as effective as incentives built into the health plan.
One major caveat: If an employer's goal is to improve employee health, a wellness incentive must be integrated into a comprehensive program that includes additional strategies to motivate people, training in the skills required to change and maintain positive health practices, and, most important, an abundance of opportunities to practice a healthy lifestyle.
• Equity: Research has shown that people with zero lifestyle-related health risks (like tobacco use, inactivity, poor nutrition, high blood pressure, etc.) have annual medical costs averaging about $3,000 compared to $10,000 for people with many health risks. Employers pay an average of 70% of these costs, and employees pay the remaining 30%. The employee's share would be $900 if everyone had zero risks, and $3,000 if everyone had many risks. In a typical company, the distribution of risks produces average costs of $6,500 a year, so the employees' 30% share is $1,950. This means the employee with zero risks, the employee who is doing everything to eat right, be active, not smoke, etc., is paying an annual subsidy of about $1,050 ($1,950 minus $900) to cover the cost of other people's poor lifestyle choices. Offering these employees lower premiums corrects much of this inequity.
Some argue that premium incentives aren't fair because they punish employees for having poor genetics or challenging life circumstances that prevent them from exercising or cause them to gain weight or smoke. Life circumstances do influence behavior, and wellness programs should address them. But lifestyle—not genetics—is the primary cause of seven of the top 10 causes of death, and the secondary cause for two others.
Others oppose higher premiums for employees who have health risks because they believe these employees might delay or forgo treatment to save money, and end up getting sicker. Not only is there is no evidence linking higher premiums to avoiding necessary care, consumer behavior research predicts the opposite: People who pay more are likely to seek more medical care because they want to get what they paid for.
• Financial sustainability: To survive, an employee wellness program, including the incentives, must pay for itself. A well-designed program can usually pay for itself several times over by reducing medical costs and enhancing productivity, but this usually takes two to three years. Building the cost of the program, including the incentives, into the health benefit plan, and sharing these costs with employees through their share of the premium, provides a way to pay for the program in the first year.

No: Making At-Risk Workers Pay More Won't Pay Off
By Lydia Mitts
Employers have an important stake in finding ways to help their employees improve their health: Better health means lower health-care costs, higher productivity and a better quality of life for workers. Workplace-wellness programs can be a powerful tool to achieve these aims, but only if they are designed well.
There are numerous ways to structure wellness programs, and many of them have been shown to help improve people's health. Offering fitness and nutrition classes on site and stocking office vending machines and cafeterias with healthy foods are just two examples of how employers can effectively promote healthy behavior. Employers also can use small immediate incentives, like cash prizes or gift cards or the potential to earn extra vacation time, to motivate people to participate in wellness activities.
However, linking wellness-program requirements to what employees pay for health coverage isn't an approach that is backed by evidence.
Insurance premiums are set so that, in the aggregate, they will cover expected health-care claims. That means if some employees earn premium discounts as a reward for meeting health measures or participating in wellness programs, others will have to pay more to make up the difference.
There is no scholarly evidence showing that charging some workers higher premiums will lead to employees making meaningful healthy behavior changes. Behavioral economics even suggests that small, frequent and immediate cash incentives may be more effective motivators. . Increasing premiums for some simply creates barriers to workers getting needed care—and ultimately, to being healthy.
One of the biggest problems with higher premiums is that they often end up penalizing the people who are least able to afford insurance or meet wellness-program requirements. Lower- and middle-income families operate on tight budgets. A workplace wellness program in Wisconsin increased overweight employees' premiums by more than $100 a month if they didn't meet goals such as losing weight, which evidence shows can be very challenging. That kind of increase creates a real cost barrier for many families. The last thing a wellness program should do is make health coverage less affordable for those with greater health risk factors and whose health could most benefit from certain health services. Studies have found that being uninsured or underinsured leads people to delay or forgo needed care, making them sicker—and their health care costs higher—down the line.
Proponents of insurance incentives claim they are fair because people with no lifestyle-related health risks typically use less medical care than those who have many. It's important to remember that a person's health status is affected by more than just personal behaviors. Genetics, socioeconomic factors, environmental factors and accidents all affect an individual's health outcomes and medical costs. Premiums should be distributed equally, based on the understanding that some people who seem healthy today could experience unforeseen health problems in the future. Cost barriers to purchasing insurance only hinder people's ability to work with a doctor to improve their own health—the supposed aim of wellness programs.
Some say that building the cost of a wellness program, including the incentives, into the company's health plan gives employers a way to pay for the program in the very first year. But employers can build financially sustainable wellness program without charging some of their workers discriminatory premiums. A well-designed wellness program will pay for itself over time by slowing down increases in health care costs, reducing absenteeism, and boosting productivity.
Offering employees activities and supports proved to induce healthy behavior changes is the strategy most likely to improve workers' overall health. Charging people more for insurance isn't. If employers want their wellness programs to work, they should stick to the evidence.

Stars' Morris finding the sweet spot
Brewers prospect extends homer streak with pair of blasts
By Jonathan Raymond / Special to MLB.com | July 8, 2012 6:35 PM ET
The Brewers' No. 9 prospect extend his home run streak to three games with a pair of longballs Sunday, adding a triple and driving in four in Double-A Huntsville's 10-5 victory over Jacksonville.
In his last three games, Morris is 8-for-13 with four homers, two triples and eight RBIs.
"When you're staying within yourself at the plate, not trying to force things, it tends to get a little easier," he said. "Right now, I've simplified things. I can pick out the right pitches, focus on finding solid contact. The rest takes care of itself."
The 2010 fourth-round Draft pick added that, especially over the last week or so, his comfort level at the plate has allowed him to elevate his production. In eight games this month, he's hitting .469 while slugging 1.000.
"It's a different confidence level. You're not as worried about getting behind in counts, don't tend to be as aggressive. You just kind of let the at-bat come to you," Morris said. "It sounds like it'd be easy to do that day in and day out, but every player puts more pressure on himself one at-bat to the next, tries to do more than they should."
This season, Morris has also been able to redefine himself in a sense, batting .314 -- well beyond what he hit in 2011 with Class A Advanced Brevard County (.271) or in 2010 with Class A Wisconsin (.251).
"That's something I expect from myself," he said. "There's been a lot of adjustments to make in my swing, to learn how to use the whole field, go deeper into counts. Sometimes you have to go for the base hit and not try to hit it out of the park. You can find holes you weren't finding before."
It's also helped that he's drawn more walks and appears to be more selective. Last season, he had 4.72 strikeouts for every walk, a figure that's down to 3.36 this year. After posting .306 and .301 on-base percentages his first two seasons in the Minors, his OBP sits at .365.
His slugging percentage also has spiked, with a 54-point rise since the Fourth of July to .551.
Morris credited a lot of his improved production to that willingness to change his approach at the plate.
"You kind of get set in your ways over time," he said. "I don't know if it's a pride thing, where it's, 'Oh, I've been doing this my whole life, why would I change?' But you realize you have to make adjustments as you move up. I don't want to ever be satisfied with numbers or accomplishments. There's always improvements I can make."
T.J. Mittlestaedt also homered twice Sunday, while No. 9 Brewers prospect Kentrail Davis was 3-for-4 with a homer and two RBIs.

The Really Inconvenient Truth For The GWPF - Debunking GWPF Briefing Paper No1
MA Rodger | April 15, 2012
By MA Rodger • Sunday, April 15, 2012 - 12:12
This is the sixth post in a series examining the UK-registered educational charity and climate denial 'think-tank' Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF). Previous posts (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) have identified very serious shortcomings and it is now make-or-break time for the GWPF's reputation.
GWPF Briefing Paper No1 - 'The Really Inconvenient Truth' will be a good test for this because "the GWPF is proud to publish this dispassionate but devastating critique of UK climate change policies, and of the alleged basis on which those policies rest."
So says the foreword written by Lord Lawson of Blaby, the founder of the GWPF. Such a statement pretty much overrules the disclaimer that appears on the cover of these Briefing Papers (that views expressed are those of the author not the GWPF).
So will GWPF pride come before a fall?

0.5m CROMO High Speed HDMI Cable with Friction Locking ConnectorsPart No. 41440
- Features 'locking' pins on the connectors which create a friction fit into any standard HDMI port and provide increased stability and resistance to removal
- Supports resolutions up to Ultra HD 4K 3840x2160 60Hz, including 1080p 3D
- Supports Dolby® True HD, DTS-HD Master Audio up to 32 audio channels
- Full support for HEC, ARC and CEC compliant devices
- 10 year warranty
The LINDY CROMO High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet is a superb, high quality cable, ideal for use with Sky HD, PS3, Blu-Ray, HDTV and home cinema installations. It provides premium quality cable construction at an affordable price and features 24K gold plated contacts for optimum conductive ability and resistance to tarnishing and corrosion.
The connector design features unique friction locking pins which provide a more secure fit in any standard HDMI socket.
HDMI - The Standard for Connecting HDTV
All Digital
No compression, no conversion, pure digital direct from the source as it was meant to be seen and heard.
The HDMI High Speed specification offers benefits over the previous version:
HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC)
The High Speed HDMI HEC Cable specification has an additional data channel that enables high speed bidirectional communication. Connected devices that include this feature will be able to send and receive data via 100mb/sec Ethernet, making them instantly ready for any IP based application.
It will also allow internet enabled HDMI devices to share their internet connection with other HDMI devices without the need for a separate Ethernet cable. This new feature will also provide the connection platform to allow HDMI enabled devices to share content between devices.
Audio Return Channel (ARC)
The HDMI specification has an Audio Return Channel that will reduce the number of cables required to deliver audio upstream for processing and playback. In cases where HDTV's are directly receiving audio and video content, the Audio Return Channel allows the HDTV to send the audio stream to the A/V receiver over the HDMI cable, eliminating the need for an extra cable.
The HDMI specification defines common 3D formats and resolutions for HDMI-enabled devices. The specification will standardise the input/output portion of the home 3D system and will specify up to dual-stream 1080p resolution.
The HDMI specification will enable HDMI devices to support high-definition (HD) resolutions four times beyond the resolution of 1080p. Support for 4K will allow the HDMI interface to transmit content at the same resolution as many digital theatres. Formats supported include:
- 3840 x 2160 @ 24Hz/25Hz/30Hz/60Hz
- 4096 x 2160 @ 24Hz
Content Type
Content Type enables, automated picture setting selection with no user intervention. The Content Type feature enables a display to auto-detect the correct viewing mode to match the Content Type it is receiving from a source device, and to switch modes when a new connected source is selected. Content Type supports content profiles for gaming, movie, photograph and text viewing modes.
Audio Formats
HDMI supports multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel, 192kHz, uncompressed digital audio and all currently available compressed formats (such as Dolby Digital & DTS), HDMI 1.3 adds additional support for new lossless digital audio formats Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master AudioTM with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements.
Amongst other the following formats are supported:
- DTS-HD Master AudioTM
- DVD-Audio
- Dolby TrueHD
- Dolby Digital / Plus
- MPEG1 Layer I / II
- DST / DSD (as used in SA-CD)
- WMA Pro
- MLP (as used in DVD-Audio)
Expanded Support for Colour Spaces
HDMI technology supports colour spaces designed specifically for digital still cameras. By supporting sYCC601, Adobe RGB and AdobeYCC601, HDMI-enabled display devices will be capable of reproducing more accurate life-like colours when connected to a digital still camera.
Please Note: These cables are recommended for permanent connections. Although they can be removed, constant unplugging could damage the port.

The improved benevolent protective order of elks of the world, (I. B. P.O.E. of W.) has been called the largest fraternal organization in the world. It has been reported to have in excess of 500,000 members world wide.
Shortly after the founding of Cincinnati Lodge No.1, the ritual of the I.B.P.0. E. of W., was copyrighted by brother Arthur J. Riggs on September 28, 1898. This was the first Elks ritual copyrighted in the United States of America. The following year in June, 1899, the first charter and articles of incorporation were granted.
The head or leader of the entire organization is known by the title of "Grand Exalted Ruler", as stated earlier, attorney Benjamin Franklin Howard was the first Grand Exalted Ruler.
There have only been thirteen Grand Exalted Rulers since the inception of this powerful organization. Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson served in this capacity for 31 years, from 1922 to 1953; Grand Exalted Ruler Robert (Bob) Johnson served from 1953 to 1960; judge Hobson R. Reynolds, the Grand Exalted Ruler Emeritus, was elected in 1960 and served until 1982. He caused the organization to present a new highly respected image because of his concern with housing, registering, voting and first class citizenship.
Judge Reynolds lived in Winton, North Carolina (he passed away in 1991). The same city which is the home of the Elks' multi-million dollar headquarters complex which consists of an administrative building, a hotel/motel complex, a Olympic size swimming pool, tennis courts, cafeteria building, a huge auditorium, etc. This site has been called the largest and most complete facility owned by any fraternal organization. This complex sets on 72 acres.
The present Grand Exalted Ruler is the honorable Dr. Donald Paul Wilson, who was originally elected in august of 1982. He has many years experience within the organization and because he has successfully accepted the awesome challenge to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors, he has been unanimously re-elected to continue to serve as the head of this powerful organization.
There are many other Grand Lodge officers, state officers and local lodge and temple offcers of which you will learn more about if you decide to become a part of this great organization.
The purpose of this organization is "that the welfare and happiness of its members be promoted and enhanced, that nobleness of soul and goodness of the heart be cultivated, that the principles of charity, justice, brotherly love and fidelity be inculcated, that its members and families be assisted, and protected, that the spirit of patriotism be enlivened and exalted". It's this purpose that makes the Elks Lodges throughout the country and the world a viable and vocal part of their community.
The current Grand Exalted Ruler, and The Grand lodge have insisted that all new members be initiated, but they also insist that the initiation be done with dignity and without physical or bodily harm to the candidate. Many hundreds of thousands of members of this organization have survived the initiation. To be exact, they all have. This order of Elks has an auxiliary that is known as the "Daughters Of Elks of the Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World". The auxiliary's Grand Temple was founded in 1902 by the late Emma V. Kelley. The auxiliary is headed by the (the Grand Daughter Ruler). As previously noted, the entire organization boasts a membership in the hundreds of thousands, with lodges and temples in the United States, Canada, the West Indies, Virgin Islands, Panama and other locations throughout the world.
The order is best known for its Education Department, which over the many years has given millions of dollars in scholarships to youth of all races. The Department of Education is best known for its annual oratorical contests. The contests are held on a local, state, regional, and international level. Although there have been many Elk oratorical contest winners, some of the most notable include, justice Thurgood Marshall, McDonald Henry the former ambassador to the United Nations, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. a Nobel Peace Prize winner, Mary Beth Bethume, Dr. Benjamin Hooks and Ophra Winfrey, the television station owner, producer and talk show host.
The Education Department also sponsors and hosts a computer camp each year, where children between the ages of 9 and 16 are co-sponsored by local lodges and temples and invited for two weeks. All expenses paid to the Elks headquarters in Winton, North Carolina for basic computer training and other developmental education lessons.
There are many departments and programs within the Elks. Some of these are: The Assault On Illiteracy Program, the Department For Children With Special Needs (mentally retarded children), the (Pioneer Special People Department, the Youth Department, the Beauty and Talent Department, the Senior Citizens Department Fez), the Fire and Safety Department, and since 1926 the Civil Liberties Department which has fought all forms of injustice against any racial group. Local lodges and temples around the world have made large financial contributions to civil right movements and organizations in addition to the donations of the grand lodge and the grand temple. There are many, many other departments that function within the organization from Medical to Veterans Affairs to Athletics.
The Elk parades at state and national conventions down through the years with the antlered guard department (our military unit) and the youthful drill teams and marching units competing against one another for the many trophies awarded each year by the Elks, have been an inspiration, and a fond memory to many a ghetto child
As in any organization, whether, it be fraternal, political, or religious, there are bound to be disagreements and sometimes hard feelings, but that's life; nothing is perfect in the Elk organization, the disagreements can be anything but political because the Elks are not a political organization. As a tax exempt organization does not officially endorse any political party or candidate.
Although many doctors, lawyers, ministers, politicians and other professional people are included in our membership, the majority of the membership are the ordinary hard working average citizens from throughout the world.

PHILADELPHIA - The Ivy League has announced its weekly award winners in field hockey, and University of Pennsylvania freshman forward Elise Tilton has been honored as the Ivy League Rookie of the Week.
Tilton's honor comes on the heels of her performance in Sunday's 5-4, overtime win against Ivy League foe Dartmouth. Tilton scored twice in the game's final 10 minutes of regulation to bring the Quakers back from a 4-2 deficit to tie. They were her sixth and seventh goals this season, which puts her third on the team in that category.
Tilton is the third different Penn player to be honored by the Ivy League this season. Classmate Jasmine Colereceived Co-Player of the Week and Rookie of the Week honors two weeks ago, and juniorgoalkeeper Carly Sokachwas the Ivy League Player of the Week last week.
Penn is 7-2 overall including 3-0 in the Ivy League, the program's best start since 1995 on both counts. The Quakers are at Rider on Wednesday evening, then travel to Yale on Sunday to play UMass-Lowell in a neutral-site game at noon.

Tips on how to Shed pounds Quickly Consuming Protein Shakes
Therefore let me get to how to shed pounds along with Protein Shakes . The principle purpose of your content could be to action as a guide in order to alter your own regular habit regarding over ingesting bad calories. The about usage connected with bad calories is just what exactly leads to the extra body fat on the entire body.
To your daily eating habits you never would like to go without food by yourself. Sure you can shed pounds short term yet the metabolism slows down defining it as more difficult and harder to shed weight. The key should be to enhance your energy through serving your body with nutritional rich energy and dispersing meals out and about towards smaller sized meals through your day. I'll testify to this method and yes it works.
You will want to include 4 in order to 6 meal each day. I understand which appears like a good deal however it seriously isn't about you would imagine. You happen to be possessing some in order to six tiny dinners each day. Just about every Protein Shake section seriously isn't bigger compared to your side. When you're spreading your meals out there directly into this specific quite a few dinners each day one's body won't own a chance to generate their energy hungers along with send your signal for your neural to halt to get that burger in addition to fries so you think total in addition to during peace and food craving harmony. FINE probably that is stretching out the idea a little, but you perform feel complete 24 hours a day. For me usually I'm not really eager by the sixth meal in addition to half plenty of time don't perhaps feed on it. Our dinners tend to be disseminate every 2 to 3 a long time.
I normally follow this specific consuming routine for six nights and then to the seventh morning My spouse and i have what ever our heart and soul desires. I utilize it like a rewards daytime.
That will increase the Protein Shakes weight reduction method in the course of these kinds of 6 days of your diet program My spouse and i create 30 to be able to 30 minutes of some sort of cardio exercise as well as pounds battle. I normally rotate that 3 days and nights of cardio along with several days regarding weight training.
For the cardio Post usually just perform a pretty quick go across the town for a half-hour state Saturday, Wednesday along with Friday. To the resistance training My spouse and i normally just find something to help such as lunges, pushups, sit-ups to build way up some lean muscle. You never perhaps own to visit the gym.
I am any computer lisenced users nerd yet My business is also any fitness fanatic and I'll attest into the energy of protein shakes like a meal replacement unit http://www.affordablesupplements.co.uk/bio-synergy-protein-shake.html

See Vietnam Wall Names Free on Footnote
Posted by
's latest addition lets you search—free—for those whose names are etched into the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC.
The site has added
an interactive exhibit
with a database of names linked to photos of each engraved name. The images are from a 460-foot photograph of the wall, consisting of 6,301 separate images "stitched" together.
The Wall bears 58,320 names of armed forces members who died or went missing while serving in the Vietnam War. (Names may be added on Memorial Day each year as the Department of Veterans Affairs receives additional information.)
You can search for a name or browse by a category, such as branch of service and hometown. You'll see a photo of each matching name. Click a match for details, including the person's hometown, rank, specialty (such as maintenance or field artillery), decorations, religion, marital status, birth date and death date and cause.
You also can click View on the exhibit's main page to see the entire stitched-together photo—then zoom in and move around. (As you might expect, the image takes a l-o-o-o-o-ng time to load.) Hover over a name, and a window pops up you can click for details on that person.
The black granite Vietnam Veterans Memorial was constructed in 1982 after its creator, 21-year-old architecture student Maya Ying Lin, won a competition to design it. A few years ago, I was one of its 3 million annual visitors. I most remember the solemn quiet—in contrast to the atmosphere around other memorials on the National Mall—and the sound of pencil scratchings as visitors made rubbings of names.
Most of Footnote's digitized historical records are available with a subscription or on a pay-per-view basis, but the virtual Wall exhibit is among the site's free offerings.
Click Comments, below, for additional tips on searching the database and viewing the Wall.

RIP Phone Book, 1878-20??

Phone books can be great resources for confirming locations of your recent ancestors, but those big yellow doorstoppers are dying a slow death, the

The hefty, floppy books were created as vehicles for companies to sell advertising, and last year, 615 million directories were printed in the US, creating revenues of $13.9 billion, according to the Yellow Pages Association. But more and more cell phones are unlisted, and many people turn to the Internet to find phone numbers—especially people under 30.

Donated DNA to SMGF? You Could Get a $19.50 Profile
Posted by
If you've participated in the
Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation
's (SMGF) DNA study, you may be able to get your genetic genealogy test results for just $19.50.
SMGF's collaboration with the DNA-enabled social networking site
has provided an avenue for SMGF to release the DNA profiles in what study director Scott Woodward calls a "compelling, confidential" way.
To be eligible for the offer, you must have ordered an SMGF participation kit prior to Oct. 23, 2007, and returned the properly completed kit to SMGF postmarked no later than Dec. 31, 2007.
If that's you, you'll be able to access your mitochondrial (mt) DNA profile (with genetic information passed from mothers to their children), along with the pedigree information you submitted to SMGF, online through Genetree.
You'll need a free Genetree basic membership to view your profile. It'll take about two weeks for your request to be filled—
get instructions for obtaining your results on Genetree's "unlock" page
The SMGF study started in 2000 at Brigham Young University's Center for Molecular Genealogy, with researchers collecting blood samples and pedigree charts at genealogy conferences. The goal? Build a database of DNA and corresponding genealogical information.
Several years ago, the project outgrew the university and moved to SMGF, where the database now contains nearly 100,000 DNA samples and more than 6 million corresponding genealogical records from people in 170 countries.
You can
search SMGF databases
and contact potential relatives through the site, but until now, participants didn't receive their test results.
On Genetree, which launched in beta last October, you can create profiles for yourself and deceased relatives, add DNA test results or order an mtDNA test ($99 or $149), search for relatives, share memories, build a family tree, and invite relatives and friends to participate.

Smithsonian Develops Photo Initiative
Posted by Grace
The Smithsonian possesses more than 13 million images in 19 museums and 700 collections, organized by discipline. In the past, it's been difficult for researchers—and even curators—to know where all the images pertinent to a topic might be found.
Smithsonian Photography Initiative
aims to change all that, making the institute's massive collection accessible for the general public and inviting history fans to get involved.
One facet of the initiative,
click! photography changes everything
, is a repository of essays on how the medium has altered the world we live in. Right now, 100 experts' musings can be found on the site; in the fall,
will invite the public to submit images and comments. (

Many USGenWeb Sites Leave RootsWeb
Posted by
About.com: Genealogy blogger Kimberley Powell reports many
project administrators are moving their sites off RootsWeb—a change she says has long been coming, but was hastened by
The Generations Network
's (TGN) decision to transfer RootsWeb to Ancestry.com's domain (
read more about that move in last week's blog post
See which USGenWeb state and project sites are moving on Powell's blog
. It looks like the relocated sites are adding redirects, and national and state administrators are keeping up with link updates.
A little background: USGenWeb is a network of free genealogy Web sites, one for each state and county. Each state and county site has a volunteer administrator who maintains it and adds information and links, which is why the sites look different. USGenWeb also hosts special projects on the national and state levels, such as the Family Group Sheet Project to post and link to online pedigree charts. National USGenWeb administrators link to the everything from the USGenWeb home page.
The national USGenWeb site and many of the local sites have long been hosted on RootsWeb, which TGN purchased in 2000 and has financially supported—and kept free—since then.
Powell says some USGenWeb administrators have been unhappy with slow RootsWeb servers and the lack of ability to add some of the bells and whistles today's Web surfers are used to seeing.
Others are uncomfortable with the
RootsWeb acceptable use policy
—the legalese of which gives TGN license to use the data posted on RootsWeb servers (submitters retain copyright)—or feel the free, volunteer nature of USGenWeb is incompatible with a for-profit host. Of course, the connection was always there, but it's more obvious with
in RootsWeb's URL.
Family Group Sheet Project's site
, for example, has moved, and its
redirect page
bears a prominent message that "THIS SITE IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH ANCESTRY."

News From the BYU Computerized Genealogy Conference
Posted by
Family Tree Magazine
's contributing editor and technology guru Rick Crume crashed the
Brigham Young University Computerized Genealogy Conference
last weekend in Provo, Utah.
He reports more than 700 attendees absorbed nearly 100 presentations and explored a large exhibit area. Here's what Rick had to say about developments he uncovered there:
FamilySearch makeover update
The revamped Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' Family History Library Web site, still in the testing stage, is gradually being rolled out to the church's temple districts around the world. It'll be open to the general public once data security issues are addressed.
"New" FamilySearch offers collaboration, multimedia and improved searching. It'll attempt to consolidate all the family information located in several databases on
"old" FamilySearch
As a shared database open for users to collaborate on, the new FamilySearch is fundamentally different from the current site, which doesn't let you alter data someone else submitted. You'll be able to submit information to the new site in GEDCOM format, but you can't download data as a GEDCOM.
Working with other service providers is the new site's strong suit. Several genealogy programs, including
Ancestral Quest
Legacy Family Tree
(but not
Family Tree Maker
or FamilySearch's own
Personal Ancestral File
), will let you synchronize the family files on your computer with New FamilySearch. And you'll be able to use these programs free at
Family History Centers
for three years.
's Charting Companion utilities will combine family information from the renewed site with photos from another site to create a photo family tree chart. And
Generations Maps
will let you order a chart made from names on the new FamilySearch.
Work is underway to digitize the Family History Library's collection.
FamilySearch Labs' Record Search
already lets you search millions of indexed names.
ow many
searches was that?
Tim Sullivan, president and CEO of
The Generations Network
, rattled off a string of statistics on his company, whose divisions include
Amazingly, Genealogy.com still ranks as the third most popular genealogy Web site, even though TGN virtually abandoned the site after acquiring it several years ago.
Sullivan noted Ancestry.com processes 20 million search requests a day. TGN has invested almost $69 million to digitize records over the past 10 years; $10 million a year now goes toward digitization. In the works: scanning some of the
National Archives
' 9 billion undigitized documents.

Find Old Newspapers at Free Library of Congress Site
Posted by
Library of Congress
has added more than 79,000 digitized newspaper pages to its free
Chronicling America
Web site, for a total of 500,000 pages and 61 titles.
The papers date primarily from 1900 to 1910, and come from California, Florida, Kentucky, New York, Utah, Virginia and Washington, DC. Among these pages are articles about the 1901 assassination of president William McKinley and the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake (below).
But even if you have no ancestors in those states, you can use Chronicling America's searchable directory of US newspapers from 1690 to the present. Say you want to find articles about a trial your ancestor was involved in. Search the directory for titles of local papers by entering the state, county and town; the year of the trial; a keyword appearing in the newspaper's title; publication frequency (such as daily or weekly); or type of paper (such as an ethnic or labor press).
You'll get a list of papers that might have articles on your relative. Click each title and the View Complete Holdings Information link to see libraries that have the paper, and which year's that library's collection covers.
If none of the libraries are near you, see if you can submit a search request or borrow papers on microfilm through interlibrary loan.

"Assistant" is not going to be iPhone 5's killer feature. Its not a killer feature at all. Its pretty cool but it is absolutely not something apple would base their entire product around (i.e. what a killer feature is).i dont get why some people freak out over assistant so much. its going to be a lightly used feature (that will likely fade) in the iphone 5 that the android kind of already has.
I'm skeptical. Voice recognition has NEVER worked well in the past. With anything. How many times have you tried voice recognition and you had to shout at your device like a retarded robot? I hate that.
Wake me up when I can talk in a natural voice and it computes with 99% accuracy.
I want "Jarvis" from Iron Man - anything less is just a beta test to get to that point, and only chumps beta test.
I'm sure assistant will be limited to the iP5 (I don't believe it will be called the 4S, a faster processor, more memory, better camera and redesigned case make an IP5) because to get a good user experience needs the added firepower.
The best thing about it is the integration with possibly my favourite app, Wolfram Alpha - almost worth getting just for that....
I realize we're talking about a software update that can be pushed out to older devices, but Apple is a company and they're in the business of making as much money as possible. One of the knocks that the haters use on Apple is that it is so proprietary, but we all knew this when we bought our iDevices. If you're really this angry with their decision, then swap to Android.
I do remember when Apple released multitasking, but only made it available for the 3GS because they said the 3G didn't have the power to multitask efficiently. I was upset with them, but since I could jailbreak and enable multitasking anyway it wasn't a big deal. It turned out they were right and multitasking made my phone painfully slow. Perhaps they're right this time too.
I noticed on my iPhone 4 that if my phone is locked with a pass code I can still use my voice control to dial and start up my music player I haven't tried anything else. I hope if this assistant program will fix that,Or if you will still be able to access your phone while it is pass code locked. Especially since this assistant thing does so much I can just imagine my husband going through all my stuff with my phone locked.
My limited research shows the vast majority of people would rather have a smaller device with the same size scren and no more choice of screen sizes makes apps uniform and a far beter end user experience.
I do not believe that Apples research will have come to different conclusions. If you want a larger screen you can always buy an Android device.
Do you think someone will make a 64gb drive that will fit in an iPod eventually?
Sure, the radio and GPS take up a little more room, but the iPhone's already a bit bulkier and heavier. Would just a wee bit more really hurt that much?
I still think the reason the the largest capacity iPhone has *never* reached or exceeded the biggest iPod is marketing, product design and not basic engineering.
Happiness, unhappiness aren't a function of Apple's (or Google's) business model.
It's a matter of qualia.
- Notice that there are autumn leaves falling around you, and that they are pretty.
- See that the back of your iPhone is shiny, and remember that you like shiny things
- Read the posts that trolls post, and recognize and value their contribution to the discussion.
You don't have to be happy.
You could whine about the mess from all the crap on the ground,
or at the way your week-old iPhone is already covered in scratches,
and you can get very annoyed at trolls and give them the what-for.
I would myself, prefer that Apple made all the software "features" available on hardware that could physically support it, and allow users to choose their own featureset and their own degree of bugs and sluggishness. But I am happy for the things in this world that are Good, and there are enough things in the world that are Good that have an Apple logo on them that are near me, that I can be happy for their sake, too.

Fats and oils are what break down Royal Icing, and it is very difficult to completely clean fats and oils from most plastic containers. If, however, you use brand new plastic containers, or you use the same container always for Royal Icing only, you should have no problems. If your mixer is plastic, just make sure the beaters are completely clean, with no fat residue. If you have any doubt, wiping them with white vinegar can help.

Funding of Technical Cooperation Activities
The UNECE technical cooperation activities are funded from the UN Regular Budget, in particular its sections "Economic Development in Europe", "Regular Programme of Technical Cooperation" (RPTC) and "United Nations Development Account", as well as by extrabudgetary resources.
Resources for technical cooperation are used by the UNECE to (i) support countries with economies in transition in their accession to, and implementation of UNECE international legal instruments, norms, standards and regulations; (ii) strengthen national capacities to develop institutional frameworks for subregional and regional integration and improve their transboundary cooperation; and (iii) support their efforts to achieve internationally agreed development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
The regular budget resources are used to leverage extrabudgetary resources, which account for the largest part of funding of UNECE technical cooperation. The importance of these resources for funding the UNECE technical cooperation activities has been increasing in the last few years.
The extrabudgetary contributions to the UNECE Trust Funds originate from a variety of bilateral and multilateral sources: UNECE member States, the private sector, inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations (the World Bank, the United Nations Development Programme, the International Road Union, the United Nations Environment Programme, the World Health Organization, etc) and the European Commission.

Love the community here in the half year I've been intermittently on GR, so it's about time I made a nice fun thread that we can all participate in! It may be more than a month away, but I've already seen a few authors put up Christmas variants of their profile avatars, and I plan to do the same very shortly!
So, please feel free to post and discuss with everyone your Christmassy Avatars! Maybe before and after images would be awesome! I'll sure be doing so once I've finished mine , and I'm super interested to see what all you have done yourselves!
And Merry Christmas Everyone! Early.

+1 waaay too early!
Hey , what is this thread about..?
It's about posting all our Christmas Envato Avatars to share in one place as people increasingly decorate their profiles leading through December!
Basically just post your avatar if you've given it a Christmas makeover, before and after shots would be cool
@am_themes and Damian – I guess.. but a lot of people are preparing for Christmas already as we go into December – at least we can be certain this is one of the first Christmassy posts this year!
So Bedros has made a brilliant start, I'll follow once I'm done with my Christmas avatar variant!
Just want to bring the community together in Christmas spirit!
I'm not trying to encourage people to change their avatars early, just I'd like this to be a place where we can all see them
Or we can just continue here from last yers thread: http://graphicriver.net/forums/thread/christmas-avatars/51616?page=1
Wow I did not see that…
Why so quiet around here? HO-Ho-HO
