Two of us are going to Belarus and Ukraine on our own, starting May 22,for a little over two weeks, travelling independently for the most part.
We are experimenting with a travel blog. So far, we only have two posts, but are hoping to add as we travel around.
The location is:
Feel free to visit, and add any comments.
The main purpose is to visit the four small towns that my grandparents came from. However, the majority of our time will be in larger cities.
Below is our itinerary.
Fly into Minsk (from Wash. DC) - 3 days in Minsk
Bus (5 hours) to the small Belarus town of Turov, Belarussia (home of grandparent #1) - stay for a day
Hire car/driver for next day to visit David Gorodok (home of grandparent #2)
Overnight train to Lviv, Ukraine, stay in Lviv for 4 days. One of the days will hire car/driver to visit hometowns of grandparent #3 in Cherniv and grandparent #4 in Zolochiv.
Overnight train to Kiev, stay in Kiev for 5 full days.
Next day, fly back to DC.
In the small towns, we don't really have specific places to visit, but will get a feel for the towns. In Minsk and Liviv, we plan to vist the archives to see if we can find any information on family history.

I just read your entire blog. Thanks for posting. It sounds like it was an interesting and productive trip for your research. Were there many other visitors when you visited Babi Yar?

Judy -
There were not many people at Babi Yar. The memorials are located in a park, so there were some people there just enjoying thte park. At the time we were there however, only a handful seemed to be there specifically to see the memorials.
Report Abuse
Thanks, Howie. I do take interest in such memorials and monuments. I did not realize the site is a park. Did you get the feel that the people enjoying the park were locals? I'm sorry I'm asking so many questions, but it's interesting to me.

I just found yor post and will visit the blog in a minute. I just hit "Ukraine" and there you were.
Wife and I are also going to visit Belarus (her ancestors) and Kiev (mine) next month. This will be my third trip into the former USSR...twice before when it WAS he USSR.
First, we're takng a river cruise, Moscow to St. Pete...then we're off on our own to Brest in far western Belarus where we'll be visiting the town of Domachevo (wife's mother's birthplace) where we'll visit the cemetery which is purported to be in fair condition, and the town hall with which I've been corresponding and getting very postive responses (in English)as to birth and death records..then on to Kiev for 5 days, to walk the streets where my dad's early years were spent (1900-1908), in the Podol district (now gentrified, I understand).
Obviously, the infamous Babi Yar is at the top of the agenda. I'm finishing yet another novel and I need to do some light research in and around the area. Babi Yar figures prominently in my new bbok. In a "letter" within a prior work, I take Yevtushenko to task (rather a slight admonition) concerning his epic piece "Babi Yar"...so yes, I have ground to cover in and around Kiev. (By the way, I was one of the author/speakers at the Jewish Genealogical Society's 23rd International Conference, Washington, DC, 2003, where one of my novels was launched.
I'm off to read your blogs, Howie...I'm sure they'll be most helpful.
Thank you so much for your efforts.
Couldn't have come at a better time.

Stu, do you know about the new visa requirements this year?
If you or your wife have the place of birth any USSR republic, you need a proof of non-citizenship.
If you both were born in the US, you're fine.

Thanks, Faina...we have both Russian and Belo-russian visas. Ukraine, not necessary for US citizens.
No, both Roz and I are North American born..her, Montreal, me Quincy, Mass. My family left Russia in 1912-13-14. Roz's mother left in 1927.

bookmarking - Stu did you ever do a trip report? I just found out that I am from the Ukraine.. my family left in the late 1800's from a place called Berdichev. I have roots in Jewish farm colony movement called "Am-Olam." Not sure what that is..but figuring it out.

LOS ANGELES Defensive coordinator DeWayne Walker will remain at UCLA under new coach Rick Neuheisel.
When Neuheisel was hired last weekend, he said his first "recruiting" job would be to keep Walker as the defensive coordinator. Walker had interviewed for the Bruins' head coaching job.
The 47-year-old Walker served as interim coach in UCLA's 17-16 loss to No. 19 BYU in the Las Vegas Bowl after Karl Dorrell was fired on Dec. 3. Walker also was interviewed recently by Washington coach Tyrone Willingham about joining the Huskies' staff.
Walker has been credited with building a solid defense at UCLA, and is known as an outstanding recruiter.
"I'm thrilled to death that he's chosen to stay," Neuheisel said Wednesday night in making the announcement. "I hope this partnership lasts until someone comes along and snatches him up as a head coach."
Defensive line coach Todd Howard and linebackers coach Chuck Bullough also will remain in their jobs at UCLA.
"All three have been coveted by other programs," Neuheisel said. "All three are top-notch guys, have proven their mettle."
Contract details haven't been worked out, Walker said, but he is confident he will be treated fairly.
"I'd take a 10-year deal if I could get one," he said.
Explaining his decision to stay in Westwood, Walker said, "It's really just trying to finish what I started. I wanted to return to college football to be a defensive coordinator, but also to win a championship."
Walker complimented Willingham, saying he "did a great job of trying to recruit myself, the other guys."
"He did a great job of selling the program, but we sat down and put all the pieces together and decided this is the place we're supposed to be," Walker said. "He was thorough, he was honest. It was one of the toughest calls I've had to make, to tell him I was going to stay a Bruin."

All those elements together might make out the shoe to look very busy and messy but it all looks rather nice all together. Everything just works and this could not be a more sleek and sexy pair of heels. Alexandre Birman always gets it right!

I am looking at the Note 2 and wonder if people are having issues with dropping Wifi connections.
I just got a Nexus 7 and it drops connections all the time. Sometime I can go 10 minutes between drops, but often it is every 30 seconds. I can be 5 feet from the router when this occurs. Apparently from the Google forums this started occurring with 4.1 (in July) and is not fixed with 4.2.
Since I want to browse on Wifi when I am home I am concerned that the Note 2 would be effected by this JellyBean bug.

A Place Called Home truly is a haven for kids in Central Los Angeles. The programs it offers helps kids learn how to take care of themselves mind, body, and soul. From healthy nutrition to dance, art, music, counseling and even assistance with furthering education, APCH has something for everyone.
The care the staff has for the youth is sure to leave a positive impression for years to come. If your child has the opportunity to be a part, do not hesitate signing them up!
I had the wonderful opportunity to visit with my teenage son. The facility was very organized and orderly, however what impacted us most was the passion and commitment of the staff and the obvious joy that was experience on a daily basis by all who entered!
I've had the opportunity to to volunteer at APCH on 2 different occasions, and look forward to visiting again next time I'm in So Cal. The opportunity APCH offers these kids to have it all, to become all they can be, is fantastic- they really care about each of the children
I'm so grateful to have worked at this Thanksgiving event today. The staff was so helpful, well-organized, welcoming and fun to be around. We can't wait to come back and help again. We hope A Place Called Home can expand for years to come. Bravo!
Really positive experience volunteering at APCH. They are organized, friendly and give a great service to the community.
I am thankful for the turkey and the groceries they gave us.
it was fun and its cool because of what they are doing for all the families
People are good here because they are helpful and happy.
a place called home is amazing! they offer a lot of opportunities for us. A place called home literally feels like home because they are welcoming and always willing to help out in what ever way that can.
thank you all for giving. Super Happy for this. Thanks so much

HR 2013 is just around the corner, and I'm excited about it. In the past, there was generally a keynote on Tuesday, followed by an HR general session on Wednesday. As I reviewed the schedule, I noticed that because there is an HR general session on Tuesday this year, we'll get even more breakout sessions on Wednesday. Without further ado, here's my "session selections" for Wednesday.
Session #1-"A step-by-step guide to taking your paper forms and documentation online with Smart Forms" (Track 3) by Chris Gray. I'm looking forward to this session for a couple of reasons-first of all, as I mentioned in an earlier blog entry, I'm ready to move our pay statements to pdf, and at the same time, I may move the pay statement from the "old" HR Form Editor PE51 to Smart Forms. Additionally, I'm always looking for ways to improve our processes, and I believe that one of the best ways to do so is through form automation.
Session #2-"An introduction to compensation management: Cloud and on-premises" (Track 2) by Paul Hopkins. This topic is intriguing to me. I haven't given serious consideration to managing compensation within SAP since my company was on 4.7, and I think it would be great to hear what SAP has to offer, and see if the features are a good fit to our current compensation model requirements. I'll be skipping, but do recommend "An up-to-date guide to troubleshooting the payroll process if and when you encounter an error" by Mike Timm. I&
rsquo;ve sat in on multiple presentations by Mr. Timm and I've found him to be exceedingly knowledgeable regarding Payroll-and more importantly, has found an easy way to explain it all.
Session #3-After lunch, I'll be attending "The 2013 guide to core SAP ERP HCM enhancements: On-premise and cloud" (Track 6) by Jean-Bernard Rolland. It's always great to know what's new and what's coming soon, and who better to speak about it than an SAP employee. Again, as above, if you aren't attending this session, consider Mike Timm's session at the same time.
Session #4-"Case study: A detailed look at Tyson Foods' time and attendance implementation" (Track 5). This is being presented by Susan Jones and Brenda Espinoza. I met Susan when she came to a presentation I gave in 2011, I'm really looking forward to seeing how they did Time and Attendance Implementation even better at Tyson than we did at Mannington Mills. I'm sure I'll get some tips and tricks to take back to the office to improve our systems. Another session, another missed opportunity for me, as I'll miss Julie De La Torra's session on Global SAP Implementations. I've heard Ms. De La Torra in the past talking about Org Management, and it really helped me to start thinking about my Org Structure, which I've pretty much tucked away on autopilot since 2005. I will definitely be reviewing her presentation on the Insider Learning Network website. That's really a key point to remember, you've got access to all the material, from all the sessions, available to you, whether you attended a particular session or not.
Session #5-"Optimizing
your payroll operation" (Track 5), by Diane Hirt. I believe that Diane and I started in SAP around the same time, we definitely did some training together, it will be absolutely wonderful to catch up. It's always great to network with an old acquaintance. But it's still about the education, just like the time implementation above; I'm definitely looking forward to the chance to learn a few tips and tricks for how to speed up our payroll processes. No pressure Diane.
For those of you keeping score at home, one each at Tracks 2, 3 and 6, and two Track 5. Still looking for the ideal session for Track 1, Track 8 will take care of itself on Thursday and Friday. I also need to remember to do a little socializing and check in with the Payroll Expert on duty at "Ask the Experts" on Wednesday night. Don't forget to follow me on twitter (@SAP_HR_Guy) and to register or find out more information about SAP HR 2013 click here.

text: All warfare is based on deception-- Sun Tzu. 'Kate Austen' knocked the .454 out of The Tracker's hand with a swift kick! The Tracker pulled out the steel baton with his other hand and connected hard across her neck! No reaction. She just stood and laughed. "I always thought a Tracker was cunning," she cried out, "but you are stupid and pathetic!" She began to shape shift into the dark vapor! The Tracker imediately moved back to give more space between him and the smoke, as well as more time. The Vapor snaked around the room, the eerie rattling sound echoing off the walls. It paced back and forth. The Tracker spotted his .454 behind the couch. So did the Vapor, as it slithered in front of the gun. The Vapor struck quickly, grabbing The Tracker and throwing him high into the ceiling then dropping him hard onto the floor! The Tracker, although stunned, managed to quickly rise to his feet and reach into his pocket, just as the Vapor circled back and started to rush him with a roaring force! He took out a pouch of ash and spread it quickly into a semi-circle in front of him! The Vapor halted, as if it had hit an invisible wall! It groaned in anger! The Tracker took a small metal tube off his belt. He flipped a lever at the back of the tube which instantaneously sprayed a thick mist of ash! The Vapor screeched in pain and immediately receded to the opposite side of the room! The Tracker jumped out of the semi-circle and grabbed the .454! The Vapor shape shifted back into the image of 'Kate Austen'! He took aim but 'Kate' grabbed the attache case with the vials and quickly exited the room! The Tracker followed! 'Kate' ran down the hall, entering a side exit! He rushed through the exit and spotted her moving rapidly down the stairs! The Tracker fired! The .454's blast ecohed painfully within the stairwell's walls! He now moved cautiously. He found the attache case with 'Kate's' arm still attached! He had partially hit his target! The rest of her had escaped! She would regenerate another arm. He ran down the stairs and exited outside the hotel. Nothing. She had escaped. But he did have the vials and he had another piece of information. The Master would be at the conference but who is the Master? Next Chap. 8 "The Master"

Proud Of Harry Potter
January 15, 2012 by staff
Proud Of Harry Potter, "Harry Potter" cast a spell at the People's Choice awards on Wednesday on a night that also saw big wins for singer Katy Perry at the start of the Hollywood awards season.
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2″ — the last instalment of the hit movie franchise about the British boy wizard — won four awards, including best movie and favourite ensemble cast.
Perry won five trophies, including best female music artist, favourite song for "E.T." and favourite tour headliner. But the perky "Firework" pop star pulled out of Wednesday's live TV ceremony at short notice, following her split with British comedian Russell Brand two weeks ago after 14 months of marriage.
The People's Choice is the earliest of Hollywood's glittering annual awards shows. But unlike the Oscars or the Golden Globes, the People's Choice winners are determined by fans and provide few insights to the likely winners of the movie industry's highest honours in February.
The "Harry Potter" stars did not make the trip from Britain to the awards show in Los Angeles so none of their wins were announced on the two-hour televised ceremony.
Female romp "Bridesmaids" won best comedy movie and Johnny Depp picked up the best actor award.
Emma Stone, 23, took the trophies for both movie actress and favourite comedy actress for her roles in civil rights era film "The Help" and "Crazy, Stupid, Love."
"I moved to LA eight years ago this week with my mom and it is so insane to be standing up here right now," Stone told the audience.
Former Disney Channel star Demi Lovato, 19, was voted favourite pop artist following her return to showbusiness after an emotional breakdown in late 2010, beating the likes of Lady Gaga and Beyonce. Maroon 5 won best band.
Television honours included "Glee" star Lea Michele and Neil Patrick Harris for "How I Met Your Mother," which also won favourite TV comedy show. "Two Broke Girls" was voted best new TV comedy.
Adam Sandler won best movie comedy actor and "Water for Elephants," starring "Twilight" heartthrob Robert Pattinson, won best movie drama.
Sandler beat perennial favourites like Steve Carell and Bradley Cooper. Both Sandler's movies this year — "Jack and Jill" and "Just Go With It" — were mauled by critics but as Sandler noted while accepting his trophy, "You the people seem to enjoy" them.

The Insect Physiology & Behavior Research Group (IPBRG), headed by Spence Behmer, studies insect physiology and behavior, including their ecological and evolutionary bases. Our approach is "bottom-up", with an emphasis on using individual behavior as a tool to understand physiological and higher-level processes. Recently we have also begun to use sequencing approaches to better understand physiological processes. Our lab pursues three broadly defined areas of research:
1) physiological ecology
2) insect sterol (cholesterol) biology
3) mechanisms of learning
We use a number of different insects in our research, including grasshoppers, caterpillars, ants, Drosophila, and insects with sucking mouthparts (hemipterans).
Please explore our site and contact us if you have any questions. Prospective students and postdocs can click here to learn more about the lab.

All That Is Bitter and Sweet
A Memoir
Ashley Judd and Others
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
In 2002, award-winning film and stage actor Ashley Judd found her true calling: as a humanitarian and voice for those suffering in neglected parts of the world. After her first trip to the notorious brothels, slums, and hospices of southeast Asia, Ashley knew immediately that she wanted to advocate on behalf of the vulnerable. During her travels, Ashley started to write diaries that detailed extraordinary stories of survival and resilience. But along the way, she realized that she was struggling with her own emotional pain, stemming from childhood abandonment and abuse. Seeking in-patient treatment in 2006 for the grief that had nearly killed her, Ashley found not only her own recovery and an enriched faith but the spiritual tools that energized and advanced her feminist social justice work. In this deeply moving and unforgettable memoir, Ashley Judd describes her odyssey, from lost child to fiercely dedicated advocate, from anger and isolation to forgiveness and activism. In telling it, she answers the ineffable question about the relationship between healing oneself and service to others.

Furthuremore most anybody who has ever watched bantam hockey would tell you with the massive size differential its about the worst time to institute checking. As well, kids at that age are just starting to be idiots, for lack of a better word.
I fuind it curious that Hockey Alberta absolutly ignored its constiuents (the parents) & its member orgaizations & did what it always wanted to do anyways. They could have taken a more thoughtful approach, such as :
1) making year specificc league as they do down east
2) excepting out rep hockey from the rule
3) expand the no hit leagues
Instead, they take the risk management approach. Its frankly ridiculous.
I actually made the comment so people who do and don't could make the distinction so we could know where they are coming from.
I agree with everything you said. My thought is that it should be skill before age.

Recipe: Get keen on quinoa
Peer closely at quinoa, and you may think you're looking at something aliens would ingest. Tiny spheres with what appear to be pale tails, the granules of quinoa are mysterious. They're also delicious.
Quinoa (pronounced "keen-wah") is also an oddity when explaining what exactly it is. Though quinoa cooks in less than 20 minutes by simmering it in liquid like rice, it's not a true cereal grain. The quinoa that you can find on grocery shelves near the rice section are actually the seeds of a crop plant that, believe it or not, are related to beets and tumbleweeds, of all things.
Humans have been eating the stuff for thousands of years, and more recently I've seen it landing on the menus of upscale restaurants. Quinoa is a nutrition powerhouse. Hailed by the Incas as the "mother grain," it is low in fat and high in protein and fiber. It's also gluten-free.
Quinoa is a snap to cook. If you can boil water, you can make it. Once cooked, it has a hearty, grain-like flavor. It's also extremely versatile. Quinoa can be served warm or cold, and mixed with everything from peppers to pears. The recipe below brings cranberries, red onion, celery and pecans to the party for extra flavor and crunch. Oh, and those tails? They're actually the seed's germ. Once the disc-like granules are cooked, they expand and the germ separates from the seed. Looks odd, tastes great.
Let's make a quinoa salad that acts as a super snack or side dish.

NORWALK, Conn. (AP) Health care data company IMS Health said Thursday it is being bought by investment funds TPG Capital and CPP Investment Board for $4 billion, in a move to help the company restructure its business amid the shifting health care arena and sluggish economy.
IMS (RX) shareholders are getting $22 a share under the deal, marking a 31% premium to the stock's closing price of $16.81 on Wednesday. Shares were up about 23% in afternoon trading, having earlier set a new 52-week high of $21.09 on the news.
The leveraged buyout deal, which has committed debt financing from the private-equity firms and Goldman Sachs affiliates, is valued at $5.2 billion including assumed debt, according to IMS.
LBOs, which involve the buyer borrowing most of the money to fund the deal and putting up the takeover target's assets as collateral, had fallen by the wayside during the recession as credit markets dried up. But this latest deal proves that private-equity firms are no longer sitting on the sidelines and are willing to jump back into the market.
The announcement comes after weeks of speculation following media reports in October that Norwalk, Conn.-based IMS was on the auction block. On Oct. 20, the company said it was exploring a variety of strategic alternatives, but did not mention the possibility of a sale. A day prior, media reports prompted speculation that the company could be sold to a private equity firm, potentially garnering a 30% premium.
IMS said its board of directors unanimously approved the buyout. TPG, the former Texas Pacific Group, has about $45 billion of assets under management. Its health care investments have included medical device maker Biomet, drug developer Axcan Pharma, and clinical research company Quintiles Transnational.
CPP Investment Board is one of Canada's largest pension funds.
"This transaction enables our shareholders to realize substantial value from their investment in IMS with an immediate cash premium, while at the same time strengthening our position to capture long-term growth opportunities," said IMS Chairman and CEO David R. Carlucci in a statement.
IMS tracks pharmaceutical prescriptions and sales, and counts some of the largest drug developers as its clients. The data is often used by Wall Street to gauge how well a specific product is selling. IMS also provides auditing services for the health care industry along with analysis tools. IMS' competitors in the health care data field are mainly privately held companies, including TNS Group Holdings and Cegedim.
IMS earlier this year lowered its 2009 outlook as the weak economy and shifting health care market dynamics curbed customer spending and hurt revenue. The company last month reported a third-quarter loss due to hefty restructuring costs and said revenue slid 6% to $540.8 million, hurt by lower analytics and consulting revenue.
The company has been cutting jobs and shifting its focus to businesses with faster growth. IMS has said it will streamline organizations that do business in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and reduce capacity and size of sales and management consulting teams in areas where demand is low. It plans instead to focus on higher-growth regions and on parts of its business including specialty pharmacy and patient-centered research, and service to payers and governments.
IMS will carry a heavier debt load with this deal. But the company's cash flow has remained strong despite earnings weakness. IMS has said it remains on track to achieve its fiscal 2009 free cash flow guidance of $380 million.
IMS did not comment on whether there would be any management changes. The company expects the deal to close by the end of the first quarter of 2010.
Deutsche Bank Securities acted as financial adviser to the company, while Sullivan & Cromwell acted as legal adviser.

What a boob!
August 15th, 2005
Dr Petra
Just when I thought coverage of sex 'research' couldn't get any worse in the press, today The Sun proved me wrong.
In an attempt to gain more publicity for the paper alongside a rubbish PR effort for Speed Auction Television the paper came up with a story that claimed to link breast size with the time it takes a man to ejaculate.
The PR 'survey' supposedly measured 'sex timings'. So here's a quick quiz for you. Do you think that particular 'survey' was completed ethically or respectfully? And do you reckon that your average man getting a cold call from a market research company is going to be happy to honestly reveal the time it takes him to ejaculate? Also do you think most men, when asked, can immediately identify their average sex performance time in minutes and seconds?
If that wasn't bad enough, the paper then attempted to associate those sex timings with average bra sizes from around the UK. But confusingly the paper gets this totally wrong, mixing up cup sizes (which indicates the fullness of breasts) with bra size (the measurement of your chest). You can see this in the list of 'results' below:
London: average time for sex – 5 minutes, 10 seconds; average bra size 34DD.
Newcastle: average time for sex – 4 minutes, 30 seconds; average bra size 32D.
Manchester: average time for sex – 4 minutes, 25 seconds; average bra size 34E.
Home counties: average time for sex – 4 minutes, 05 seconds; average bra size 32C.
Wales: average time for sex – 3 minutes, 45 seconds; average bra size 36B.
East Anglia: average time for sex – 3 minutes, 40 seconds; average bra size 32F.
Scotland: average time for sex – 3 minutes, 37 seconds; average bra size 32E.
Bristol: average time for sex – 3 minutes, 10 seconds; average bra size 32D.
Birmingham: average time for sex – 2 minutes, 35 seconds; average bra size 34FF.
The paper claimed that men like big breasts, but they lead to men coming too soon.
Now premature ejaculation is associated with a lot of things – psychological problems, physical difficulties, relationship issues, or lack of confidence. But the idea that a woman's breast size has the power to make a man come 'too soon' is ridiculous.
This 'research' simply associated two random sets of factors (one lot of findings obtained from a completely unethical study). They could just as easily have linked sex timings to choice of footwear, food preference, or the colour of car a guy drives.
The paper had the courtesy to note it wasn't a scientific study. But whilst we're busy agreeing it's meaningless let's look at what it's telling us. It's setting out parameters for 'normal' male behaviour – blaming men who don't last for a long time in bed, which will increase male anxiety.
It wrongly links sexual arousal with premature ejaculation – misleading people about sexual functioning. It assumed everyone who has sex in the UK is straight. And it blamed women for being too sexual – the bigger the breast, the paper implied, the more likely you'll end up with a 'bad lover' and it's your entire fault!
I don't think sex coverage always has to be super serious. Quite the opposite, I'd like to see a variety of sex stories in the press. The problem is the 'fun' stories like this aren't quite so fun when you think about them. They make people take sex research less seriously, and the subtext of these stories isn't a good-humoured joke – it's about setting up sexual standards and apportioning blame.Tweet

FTM (first time mom) due next week...just wondering what the stay was like and what all they provided? Also looking for mommy meet up group in the north Fort Worth/Keller/Alliance area? Thanks!
My friend just delivered there 3 months ago. She said it was really nice and everyone was very attentive. She was the only patient on the labor/delivery floor because it's a new hospital. I live 5 min. from that hospital but I'm delivering at Baylor All Saints because I already had an OB and that's where she delivered. I am also interested in a mommy meet up group in this area though. I live in Keller and I'm due with a little boy in 5 weeks.
I delivered at the new Texas Health at Alliance Hospital in December. I have no complaints. Everything was nice and new, nurses were friendly and some of the food was good. I ended up with a c-section after trying for a vbac and got a good look at the operating room, heehee! It was nice to. As for a play group try, http://www.meetup.com/ there are some groups in the Fort Worth/Keller area. Hope you have a happy and safe delivery experience.

I didn't delivery at that hospital but a friend of mine delivered there recently so all my info is second hand. She said that she had a great experience there. The nurses were great and she liked the fact that it was smaller than Harris Dowtown which is where she delivered her first.

Go junkies rejoice: Baduk TV is now available on your smart phone. That's right, you can now watch the same program Korean baduk (the Korean word for go) players watch 24 hours a day. The free Baduk TV app is available in Apple's App Store and Google Play. Though currently only available in Korean, Myungwan Kim 9P says there may be an English translation version of the program available as early as the end of this year. "Many Korean go players first met go through Baduk TV," says Kim, "The biggest reason prize money in Korean tournament has been rising for the last 10 years or so is because Baduk TV created so many fans and attracted commercial sponsors. I think it could make a huge difference to the go community here, as well." For now, the service is free, though Kim says that may change later this year, and the rates will depend on how many users there are.

Your Move/Readers Write: The Girl Who Played Go
Sunday May 27, 2012
GO REVIEW: The Girl Who Played Go
by Shan Sa; translated from the French by Adriana Hunter
280 pp.
In The Square of The Thousand Winds, a Chinese girl plays go. Serious go, toppling opponent after opponent. The time is the early 1930's and the Japanese are invading. Hearing that "terrorists" from the Chinese Resistance meet at the Square to plot their next moves, a Japanese soldier visits the square in disguise, to spy on them. Instead he falls into a game with the girl who plays go. They meet at the square day after day to continue this strangely compelling game. Meanwhile, we watch their lives converge toward a startling climax.
The award-winning author (at left) seems to know her Asian history and literature, and even fills us in with footnotes when the characters participate in major historical events, or discuss history. Attention to detail is so "granular" that the Chinese girl depicted on the cover is even holding authentic Chinese stones! (Chinese stones are flat on one side.) The writing is sprinkled with thoughtful little gems, but seems mostly halting and disjointed, and the occasional intrusion in the translation of Britishisms like "chivvying" is a bit jarring. Most of the chapters are only a few paragraphs long — just when we're beginning to immerse ourselves in a scene, it's over. Nonetheless, as often happens with good books, I am left with vivid memories and images, and thoughtful questions about the meaning of war. You have to admire the author's ambition. Through these gradually intertwining lives, one Chinese, one Japanese, she seeks to illuminate a dark era of occupation, torture and violent death, and to some degree she succeeds.
As a go player, I was happy to see the game presented as in a compelling, dramatic way. The Japanese lieutenant goes to the Square on a mission for his country and the Emperor, but finds himself hopelessly seduced by go. He confesses to his Captain, who shows his understanding by quoting the Chinese philosopher Zhuang Zi: "When you lose a horse, you never know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing." In the end, the game becomes the means by which two minds meet in a profound, life-altering way.
This novel takes its place in a growing lexicon of "go stories". The ongoing, periodically adjourned game that progresses through most of the book invites comparison with Kawabata's The Master of Go, which won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1968. After the degrading portrayal of women in Sung-hwa Hong's tough, dark First Kyu, it's nice to see a woman who is not just the central character, but clearly the master of a her fate — and a strong go player to boot!
Most of all, The Girl Who Played Go brings to mind the classic film The Go Masters, a historic Chinese-Japanese film that has been called "an Asian 'Gone With the Wind.' "

Spring Crop of Go Books: 300 Tesuji Problems, Modern Master Games, Punishing and Correcting Joseki Mistakes, Five Hundred and One Tesuji Problems, Joseki Dictionary Vol. 3 & Life of Honinbo Shuei
Wednesday May 23, 2012
Spring has brought an early crop of go books, some brand new and others re-issued in new formats. Here are six that have just been released, two each on joseki and tesuji, a historical look at tournament go in Japan and a bio of "Meijin of Meijins" Honinbo Shuei.
Don't let the "4-dan to 7-dan" subtitle of Kiseido' s 300 Tesuji Problems scare you off. Though the problems in this book, Volume 5 of the Graded Go Problems for Dan Players series, are quite challenging, "even if you are unable to solve them, contemplating the problems, then studying the solutions will broaden your tactical horizons by revealing new possibilities in fighting techniques," says go publisher Richard Bozulich. Also new from Kiseido is Modern Master Games, Volume One, The Dawn of Tournament Go by Rob van Zeijst and Richard Bozulich with historical notes by John Power. A survey of Japanese go from the founding of the Honinbo tournament in the 1940s to the Meijin and Judan tournaments in the 1960s, Modern Master Games contains eleven exciting games with detailed commentaries that chronicle the Japanese go scene during the Second World War, including the "Atomic Bomb Game" between Iwamoto and Hashimoto, and the rise of Sakata and Takagawa's dominance of the Honinbo title in the post-war era. Kiseido notes that many of their books "are now available on the iPad and iPhone through Smart Go." Available books can be purchased by downloading the free SmartGo Books app from the App Store, then use in-app purchase. New titles are being added regularly.
SmartGo Books has been updated with two new books, and the added feature of being able to play arbitrary moves in diagrams, which is especially valuable for problem books. The new books are Punishing and Correcting Joseki Mistakes by Mingjiu Jiang 7 dan and Adam Miller, a popular Slate & Shell book that has been out of print, and Five Hundred and One Tesuji Problems by Richard Bozulich, featuring a large variety of tesuji problems. SmartGo Books for the iPad and iPhone has always allowed users to replay moves in diagrams. "In version 1.5, you can also play your own moves directly in the diagram," says author Anders Kierulf. "This is especially helpful for problem diagrams, where SmartGo Books will provide feedback on whether your move is right or wrong." For problem books like 501 Opening Problems or the newly added Five Hundred and One Tesuji Problems, Kierulf says, "this is a game changer."
Volume 3 of Robert Jasiek's Joseki Dictionary completes the German 5-dan author's joseki series. Jasiek's intent is to make learning joseki easier with a method of evaluation that enables players to "distinguish equal from one-sided results correctly" and emphasizes understanding strategy and judgment. His dictionary explains the strategic choices in each joseki, evaluating the territory and influence of each sequence, identifying types of josekis, from "finished thick settling" to "lean and attack." Using databases of professional games, Volume 3 includes modern josekis and 130 mostly professional game examples. Click here for a sample and Jasiek's overview.
GoGoD is releasing a new e-book for the Kindle, The Life of Honinbo Shuei, Volume 1 of a trilogy, The Life, Games and Commentaries of Honinbo Shuei, by John Fairbairn. A famous go player in Japan at the end of the 19th century, Shuei was known as the "Meijin of Meijins" and is still revered by many modern professionals. Overcoming a life full of hardship and controversy, Shuei rose to dominate the go world in his forties, a classic example of "great talents mature late." This first volume covers Shuei's biography, with forthcoming volumes to provide detailed commentaries on about eighty of his games and commentaries by Shuei himself on games by other players. Volume 1 covers Shuei's own life in detail, and sets it firmly in the context of the go scene and the social and political scene at the time, especially the long-running spat between the Honinbos and the Hoensha. Included are juicy tidbits like the tragic end of Honinbo Shuwa, Shuetsu's breakdown, the fate of the Driftwood Board, the sordid truth about Shusaku's Castle Games and why Shuei disappeared from the go scene for years at a time.
BadukMovies Launches Weekly Webcast
Thursday May 10, 2012
Dutch go players Peter Brouwer 6d ('danoontje' on KGS) and Kim Ouweleen 4d ('Murugandi') have launched a weekly webcast on their BadukMovies website. The short videos — 10 min. max — clearly explain and cover a wide variety of go topics, ranging from "A trick play without drawbacks" to "A Chinese tesuji against moyo" as well as detailed explanations about securing or destroying bases. Every Monday a new screencast is uploaded, with eight posted since the launch on March 20. The free videos are in English and Brouwer and Ouweleen say "Comments, feedback or new ideas for videos are more than welcome. Let us know what you think!" You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter.
New Go Films: Tokyo Newcomer & Weiqi Wonders
Monday May 7, 2012
Go features prominently in a couple of new films, one a drama, the other a documentary. In Tokyo Newcomer, Chinese go genius Yoshiryu (Qin Hao) comes to Japan to hone his skills in the game, but finds he's too busy earning a living to study go at all. One day, he meets an old woman hawking vegetables, who turns out to be a descendant of a prestigious go family. The latest film by Jiang Qinmin – who also directed The Last Sunflower and Sky Lovers – Tokyo Newcomer is "a touching drama about true communication, transcending national borders and generation gaps, through go." In Weiqi Wonders: Conversations About the Game of Go in China, anthropologist Marc L. Moskowitz (at right, below) interviews people in China in settings ranging from children's schools to China's elite Beijing University to a park where retired working class men gather to play, from child educators to those reminiscing about their own youth during the Cultural Revolution. What emerges is a fascinating cultural study as people discuss children's education, retirement, China forty years ago and today. "As Chinese politics have changed over the last two millennia, so too has the imagery of the game," Moskowitz notes, "from a tool to seek religious enlightenment to military metaphors, one of the noble four arts, one of the condemned "four olds", nationalism, transnationalism, historical elitism, and futuristic hyper rationality." The film is "witness to people's lives, ranging from university students to working class senior citizens, professional players, people who gave up professional careers to become students, and a range of others who all share a love for this extraordinary game." Please let us know if you hear about screenings of either of these films, so we can let EJ readers know.

Latest GoClubsOnline Offers Pairings Module
Sunday April 1, 2012
The latest release of GoClubsOnline offers an integrated tournament pairings module for all participating clubs, reports Robert Cordingley. "Now club volunteers and organizers can manage their tournaments from start to finish," says Cordingley, "from online registration, through check-in and pairings to completing post tournament activities, like book-keeping and emailing results to the AGA or generating the 'EGD Wallist' for EGF rated tournaments." Included in this latest release is a QuickStart mode that presents some of the most frequently needed tasks for tournament management, pairings, event management and club membership management. And for non-English speaking organizers, the developers have integrated Google Translate, which Cordingley calls "a not-perfect but potentially very useful machine language approach to making the site accessible in over 50 languages."

N^T^N ALEXANDER Illuminated Glass and Mixed Media on Canvas, 2013
In his Critique of Pure Reason, Kant distinguished between "Phenomena" objects as interpreted by human sensibility and understanding and "noumena" (objects as things-in-themselves, which humans cannot directly experience). The noumenal realm was equated with the world of ideas known to the philosophical mind, in contrast to the phenomenal realm, which was equated with the world of sensory reality. The Latin word "numina" also suggests that which is perceptible by the mind but not by the senses.
It is in this "Numinus" realm that we interact with the gods, angels and demons.
NUMINA presents the angels of the Shehamphorash, the mystical 72 letter name of god. It is said that simply by gazing on these names one may receive the blessing of their angelic radiance. Beneath these sigils is the flower of life shown in its geometric relation to the holy Kabbalah. Together these form a sacred alignment describing the lightening path from Kether to Malkuth, Spirit into Matter.
Powers of the Sphinx
N^T^N ALEXANDER Illuminated Glass and Mixed Media on Board, 2010
"In philosophy, the hypercube or tesseract represents the inherent complexity of a two-dimensional surface, and the dynamic, structuralized potential of the fourth dimension; According to one theory, time is interpretable as the nth dimension in an nth-dimensional context; acquiring additional dimensions merely requires more complex exceptions, and a more complex set of working instructions."
"To Know, To Will, To Dare, and To Keep Si-lent: these are the four traditional maxims of the aspiring magician, the Four Powers of the Sphinx.
These Four Powers are attributed to the four elements. They frequently are symbolized by the four Kerubic (or "Fixed") signs of the Zodiac, the images of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius.
The mysterious symbolism of the Sphinx itself also is attributed to the sephirah Malkuth, especially in the sense that it is a visual and symbolic synthesis of the four elements through these governing Kerubic forms.
Different writers have allocated these Four Powers to the four elements in different ways. Nor did Crowley limit himself to one way of listing their correspondences. The exact attributions do not matter for our present purposes. They can be evaluated by each Neophyte individually, in the process of building her own understanding of the Four Powers of the Sphinx, and in the process of evolving her own inner symbol system and magical methodology. Among Crowley's writings, the primary references for these different views can be found in De Lege Libellum, and in Liber Aleph, The Book of Wisdom & Folly, both of which were a part of the Probationer Syllabus. There is additional teaching in a document given to the Probationer on the occasion of her initiation. A still different formulation is given in Liber 777, Col. L. Another helpful reference is Magick in Theory & Practice, Cap. XXI, Sec. V.
It is important to understand that these "powers" develop in ascending layers. One never "masters" them in the sense of having fully acquired them. They continue to reappear on ever-higher levels, appearing in progressively more subtle aspects. For this reason they are represented as the four sides of a solid, balanced foundation – the first row of brick and mortar, so to speak – of the Pyramid of Initiation which the magician is building toward the stars. Without such a solid and balanced foundation, the structure eventually will topple and fall. The higher goes the building (the closer to its apex one reaches), the more likely the fall. This is as true psychologically and spiritually as it is in architecture. For this reason, the A.'.A.'. encourages – in fact, requires – a gradual, progressive, balanced advance in the Great Work, resting upon a solid, sure foundation."
-Chapter 3 of The Mystical & Magical System of the A.'.A.'., James A. Eschelman

We have looked for years, first as a child, and now as a parent. Can someone solve this eternal riddle for me? Thanks!

Maybe earplugs will help when when we go to the MK with the grandkids this spring?

Published: April 12, 2014 at 8:07 AMI used to enjoy It's a Small World quite a bit. It was a good break from the heat with a relatively short line, and you could get off your feet and relax.
...and then there was the time when my daughter who was then 5 years old wanted to go on it 3 times in a row. The first time my wife rode it with us. The second time my wife excused herself for a bathroom break, and then we couldn't find her after the ride (This was in the days before cellphones made us all instantly accessible.), so my daughter who was tired of waiting and near a meltdown asked for a third ride. I had no choice.
After that ride, we found my wife, and because it was the end of the day, we decided to go back to the hotel room, and I carried my daughter out of the park on my shoulders - while she hummed and sang what she could remember about the theme song right above my ears.
...and during the monorail ride,
...and on the tram out to the parking lot,
...and in the car until she fell asleep.

wikiHow to Organize Photos on Facebook
Facebook has created a great way for you to organize all of your pictures. It is designed in such a way where photos can be grouped and viewed by folders. This means you can sort all of your newborn's photos into one folder and all of your family reunion photos into another without the mess.
1Log in to your Facebook account. Go to https://www.facebook.com/. In the top right corner, type in your email/phone number and password. Click "Log In."
2Go to your profile main page. Do this by clicking your name next to your picture on the top left corner of the screen.
3Click "Photos." Underneath your name, click the tab that says "Photos."
4Click "Your Photos." Underneath "Photos," click the tab that says "Your Photos."
5Click the little pencil of the picture you want to move. Hover your mouse on your desired picture. You will then see a little pencil in the top right corner of the photo (it will say "Edit or Remove"). Click it.
6Click "Move to Other Album." After you click the little pencil, a drop down menu will appear. Select "Move to Other Album."
7Select the album you want to move the photo to. In the drop box that will appear, click the drop down menu. You will then be given a list of your existing albums and an option to "Create Album."

Hi, welcome to the first of many blogs detailing basic editing functions. Today's lesson is: Undoing Edits(also known as Reverting). Undoing is a simple tool available to Any User. If you wish to apply for Rollback Rights, you MUST know how to use this tool.
What is Undoing?
Before I can impart upon you these mystical powers, we must first delve into some basic terminology that will help you understand more clearly.
- Revision: Whenever you edit a page, you create a "Revision". The revision you make is "the current layout" of a page (what everyone else sees), and contains the past information on the page, as well as your changes . The best way to describe a Revision is to liken it to an update. When a new update is created, it imprints changes into a system. This does not mean the old Versions are lost. Past Revisions are stored in the "History" page.
- History: A Page History is a list of every revision of the stated page. It can be found by clicking on the downwards arrow next to the Edit button (which is at the top of each page). The Page History is useful, as it shows every change made to the page since its creation. There are also Histories for Users, which are known as "Contributions", or Contribs for short. Each Revision will show you when it was made, who made it, how large it is and the Section edited (Or, if you choose to include it, An Edit Summary).
- Comparing Revisions/Diff: We compare Revisions to see what changes were made between two edits.To compare Revisions, go to a Page History. On the left of each Revision, you will see Radio Buttons. Clicking one will make all revisions above the selected one have two buttons, as well as telling the page that you want to compare this to another. Then click on an above revision, filling in the right button. If you have two filled in Buttons, Congratulations! Now just click the "Compare Selected Revisions" and you can now see the Difference(Diff)! The left side will have your first-selected Revision, and the Right shows your second choice. Changes are Highlighted in red. However, when you delete some text, it will show the text on the left hand side, and a gap in the right side.
Now that we got that out of the way, you can now UNDERSTAND. Undoing is the action of changing a user's edit back to a past revision. This can involve restoring text that someone deleted, removing text someone added, and even re-inserting images. You revert edits by clicking on the undo button. This will lead you a "Publish" page, where you are asked to insert a edit summary. This is VERY IMPORTANT if the edit was merely a case of misinformation. If you do not fill it out, I will send an ARMY of Tibbers to Search and Destroy your computer. Oh, and you will probably insult the guy whose edit you undid. After all, who likes being told their edit was obliterated for no reason?
Why we Undo things
We undo edits in these Situations:
- When a vandal appears (If they do, check ALL of their edits, and undo them if they are malicious). Vandals appear in many forms; Some troll, some delete lots of information, some insert Gibberish. Regardless of the type of vandal, you should always revert it.
- When you see someone has added a false statement, or removed some facts. If it looks like they merely made a mistake, undo it and say why you did in the Edit summary. If you don't, people will get offended, or even Redo their mistakes.
The Difference between Rollback and Undo
Rollback is, in all simplicity, a modified Undo button specifically for Vandalism. It undoes the edit in a single click, saving you time and the need to fill out summaries or publish it. This should ONLY be used for Vandalism, or even when you mess up a page by accident.
Rollback editors should be trusted, edit a LOT to prove their dedication (100 edits on pages AT LEAST), must show evidence of dealing with Vandals, and be helpful to the community.
I hope you enjoyed my guide, or at least learned SOMETHING from it. Comment Below to express your thoughts, point out things I missed, give ideas for future blogs, and ask questions! Remember, never leave a vandalism to be displayed: Always try to undo it as soon as it appears!>_< Demise101>_<

Zyprexa Suit LaunchedJan 3, 2005 | CP
A B.C. man has launched a class-action lawsuit against drug maker Eli Lilly over its medication Zyprexa, claiming the company "minimized� the heath risks of taking the anti-psychotic drug.
The suit filed in the B.C. Supreme Court alleges Vancouver's Marc Estrin developed diabetes as a result of taking the drug to treat schizophrena.
Eli Lilly Canada Inc. plans to "vigorously defend the lawsuit,� a spokeswoman said in a statement issued to The Canadian Press.
The statement from Laurel Swartz, senior manager of communications, said there is a risk that publicity around the case may cause some patients to stop using their medication without talking to their doctors first.
"This can have tragic consequences,� she said. "Like all medications, Zyprexia can have side effects in some patients and information about these side effects has been appropriately communicated to regulatory authorities and health-care professionals throughout the life cycle of the product.�
Zyprexa was approved by Health Canada last year for treatment of bipolar disorder and manic depressive illness. The drug has been marketed for the sale and treatment of schizophrenia in Canada since 1996.
The class-action lawsuit against the firm still needs to be certified by a judge. If it is approved, the current plaintiffs named in the lawsuit, Estrin and his father, Aaron, would then become the representative
plaintiffs on behalf of the class.
The lawsuit claims Estrin was prescribed Zyprexa for schizophrenia several years ago until he was diagnosed with diabetes.
Had he been made aware of the serious adverse health complications he would not have taken the drug, the lawsuit claims. Estrin had no predisposition or family history of diabetes.
The allegations, yet to be proven in court, say Zyprexa has been associated with increased risk of developing diabetes, hyperglycemia, pancreatitis,ketoacidosis and other injuries.
The statement of claim alleges Eli Lilly minimized and understated health
hazards and risk associated with Zyprexa.
It also accuses the company of manipulating statistics to suggest widespread acceptability.
Similar legal action has been taken in the United States and at least one lawsuit has been launched in Ontario.
The lawsuit accuses Eli Lilly of failing to warn patients and physicians of the risks, misrepresenting the research around the benefits of the drug, and showing reckless disregard for the well-being of the public.
The plaintiffs are asking for damages for medical expenses, home care, loss of income, loss of opportunity, pain and suffering.
The lawsuit claims six million prescriptions for Zyprexa were issued in Canada over 12 months ending in October 2003, with sales valued over $4 billion worldwide in the same year.
