Gotta love a dividend aristocrat at a discount
AT&T (T), like pretty much everything else in this world, isn't perfect. Growth isn't exactly its strong suit these days and the payout ratio is creeping toward levels I'm not overly comfortable with as an investor.
Still, when a dividend aristocrat like T is on sale, you have to take a nibble, right?
I picked up a share for $36.41 Friday afternoon – a purchase which increased my position to seven shares with an average price of $39.47. I've lowered my cost-basis each of the last four times I snagged a share of the company. I'd like some capital appreciation, sure, but I certainly don't mind lowering my cost-basis, either. T, which has an annualized dividend of $1.96 a share, sports a yield above 5%, a 67.4% payout ratio and 32 straight years of dividend growth. It's 16.07% off its 52-week high, too, so now looks like a great time to buy.
This week was relatively quite aside from Friday's purchase, but I did see some action early on.
I was paid a pair of dividends Monday – $0.14 from FITB and $0.34 from POR (a $0.02 raise from last quarter). The pair of payouts brought my July total up to $14.48.
I also scooped up a share of Intel (INTC) for $34.42. It was my second share of INTC – I bought my first for $35.19 back in February, so I lowered my cost basis by $0.38. The purchase increased my forward annual passive income by $1.09 so, coupled with the $1.96 I expect to earn from the aforementioned share of T, I raised my annual income by $3.05 this week.
That's all for now. Thanks for reading.

I had the opportunity to complete a train the trainer course, and now I am a Thinfinity Field Trainer. The amount resources on this site is amazing!
I decided to explore today and look for some great interactives for Kindergarten and 1st graders? Check out what I found!
Reading- Student Interactive Grades K-1
1. Puzzle Me Words http://www.readwritethink.org/
Puzzle Me Words is a fun, educational game designed for kindergarten and first-grade students. The game reinforces letter sounds by having students combine letters to form words for the pictures they see (e.g., pig and hat). Scootie, a talking school bus, reads the words aloud, further reinforcing the letter sounds. As students complete each round, they earn a new puzzle piece toward their prize puzzle: a coloring sheet that they can print, color, and display proudly at home or in school.
Two levels are offered in the game:
- Beginner—This level limits the choices to eight letters and requires three correct words per round; three rounds are needed to win the prize puzzle.
- Advanced—This level is more challenging because all twenty-six letters of the alphabet are presented as letter choices and more words are needed to finish each round before winning the prize puzzle.
URL --- http://www.readwritethink.org/
Learning to recognize letters is integral to early literacy. But how can you keep your students practicing until they are fluent? The ABC Match game meets this challenge by offering students the chance to match initial letters with pictures while also using their memory skills to remember which cards are where. Students work their way through three increasingly difficult levels, each with more pairs of cards. The game offers two modes of play, one timed and one not, as well as the option to hear the names of all the pictures. A print version of the cards enables students to play the game offline, either in the classroom or at home.

3. Construct a Word
Construct-a-Word provides a simple, engaging way for students to generate dozens of different words by first choosing an ending (for example -an, -ed, -at, -op) and then adding a beginning letter or blend. When a correct word is created, the word is stored in a Word Bank where students can read and review their words. For each ending, Construct-a-Word prompts students to create between 6 and 14 different possible words, adding an element of fun and discovery. It uses animation and sound to guide students through the steps of creating words, and employs prompts that are clear and easy to master. This interactive tool could be used individually or in small groups, either in one session or across multiple lessons.
4. Spelling Bee (Grade 1 only, or advanced KG readers)
This set of activities is like an old-fashioned Spelling Bee.
Contestants in grades 1-8 will listen to three stories, one at a time, and then spell words from each story.
Turn the word -shock- into -ship- in just 5 steps. Change one phoneme at a time, and see how much fun it is to make totally different words. The game, from the Electric Company, is all about changing phonemes in series to make real words.
Have fun combining word parts to create a new word and learn its meaning. This game, from The Electric Company, is all about creating real words from parts of words.
this student interactive uses themes from four popular U.S. children's books to create word puzzles that students solve by unscrambling letters and considering related clues. The program provides hints if needed.
Shock is the beatbox king! Listen as he works his magic on word families.

Here's the cutest image from artist Julia Spiri called Gothic Witch. I combined this image with some stunning papers from Paper Temptress today to create this card. Now that we are in Sept, I thought it was a good time to start sharing some Halloween theme cards, but how about we start Halloween in something other than orange/black? Isn't she adorable? The colors just match these papers perfectly.
The beautiful papers today are all from Paper Temptress. The card base is mica/metallic called Sapphire. The large spiderweb corners are also cut from mica/metallic in Kunzite. Across the middle there is a beautiful border that is actually from Hambly Studio Overlays, a small piece of Pink Mini Chandeliers. The image is printed on Neenah Solar White Classic Crest Paper. I use this brand in my printer all the time and get beautiful prints.

Naked Leather -- more than meets the eye By SUSAN JOHNS Staff Reporter
When I pulled into the Naked Leather parking lot last weekend, I wasn't sure what to expect. Driving by the store since it opened on Route 1 in Wiscasset last spring, I had often wondered what would be inside a store with that name and the sign showing a woman who, well, isn't exactly dressed for all this rain we've been having.
What's it like in there? What do they sell? How did it come to be here? How's business?
It was time to end the speculation.
What I found were several surprises. For starters, yes, there are leather undergarments for sale, but there are also leather jackets, along with purses, belts and non-leather products including pins, designer t-shirts and Harley Davidson emblems. (Bikers make up about 70 percent of the business, according to owners Mike and Dozer Maney.) Mike explained that they would like to display leather jackets in the window, instead of the lingerie that's on most of the mannequins. But they found that, in the sun's glare, the dark jackets can't be seen from the road.
A bigger surprise than the variety of merchandise was the store's homey atmosphere. The first room with merchandise also serves as the family's living room.
When I walked through the door Saturday morning, the couple's 21-month-old son, Nicholas, was watching a Mickey Mouse cartoon on a large-screen TV. Two polite dogs passed by me, and a three-month-old, orange kitten joined me on the couch.
Toddler-sized riding toys – a train and a highway patrol motorcycle for Nicholas and visiting children to use – were parked in a second room of merchandise.
Dozer, 30, and Mike, 41, met about four and a half years ago at a Sturbridge, Mass. stoplight.
"We just kind of flirted next to each other, and we pulled into a gas station, and he asked me if I wanted a job," Dozer recalled. Mike had already started Naked Leather in Connecticut, about four years earlier.
As the interview went on, so did the surprises: Naked Leather participates in numerous fund-raisers; and, Mike puts on a free barbeque in the parking lot every Saturday – no store purchase required (he starts cooking around 11 a.m.)
Naked Leather recently sponsored a pre-bike run party, for which part of the proceeds went to the Maine Children's Cancer Fund. And a store gift certificate is being contributed to this Saturday's first annual "Ladies Ride for Breast Cancer," benefiting the Breast Cancer Coalition of Maine.
In the course of selling leather at biker rallies around the country over the years, Mike has met a slew of big music names. He sold leather jackets to Meatloaf and each of his band members, and has met members of Hootie and the Blowfish, Lone Star, Trick Pony, Blue Oyster Cult, and Poison. A jacket with those performers' autographs hangs on display at the store.
There is also a working traffic light picked up at a swap meet and, on the ceiling in the first room, a set of U.S. and world maps. Visitors can place pins on them to mark where they live. The maps just went up last week, but already there were pins on Colorado, Michigan, Kansas and Missouri.
The store has also had customers from Switzerland, Sweden and "a lot from Germany," Mike said.
So, how did Naked Leather end up in Lincoln County, Maine? When the couple was in the area for Dozer's family, a temporary, roadside sale drew an overwhelmingly positive response.
"People begged us, literally begged us, to move here," Mike recalled. "Half of the United Bikers of Maine and 90 percent of Bath Iron Works said you've got to move up here." Maine has more Harley Davidson motorcycles per capita than any other state, he said.
So far, business is off to a good start. Sundays are the best days. That's when the most bikers are on the road. Rainy days have brought in shoppers who would otherwise have been playing or working outside.
The couple is currently looking into a possible Naked Leather satellite store in Rockland.
Aside from tourists and bikers, many area residents come to the store, to shop and just visit, and some bring their kids, Mike said.
"Kids are welcome. We have picnic tables. We really are a destination," he said. "Our customers don't show up for five minutes. They stay for an hour." The couple say they like it that way, for they consider the customers their friends.

Aria v. New York, NY 10/5/2009
Fourth of July Weekend = Small Town America
U-Turns on Route 1 = Is That a Gay Fetish Store?
I'm a firm believer that only by wandering and exploring without a map can you find the real gems on your trips. Well, there's not a lot of wandering in costal Maine, there's only one main road, but who would have ever thought we'd end up spending out 4th of July at a leather store for a bikini bike wash?
Naked Leather has this purple and red sign hanging along Route 1, with a somewhat naked person on it, and it definitely draws eyes. We passed it, I missed it, and a u-turn was pulled--rather dangerously--so as to get a second look. A fetish shop? A gay fetish shop? A leather/BDSM/Dominatrix/sex shop??? In Wiscasset??! We were so confused the only way to find out was to venture inside.
The first thing I noticed was the big screen TV, and by big, I'm talking 60" or so... A living room in a sex shop? Okay, not the first time I've seen this, but with kids toys? Interesting. And, is that a kitchen back there? Do I smell cookies? Now this is just getting downright odd. Or confusion, for all it was worth, was well established. What looked like a house from the outside, was indeed one. A home and a store in one.
Dozer and Mike, the owners and operators of Naked Leather live in their store: the living room is the entry way and cash register, what used to be a bedroom is a showroom. The kitchen is still that, but the open dining room houses their four-poster bed and upstairs is the office and kid's room. The walls are lined with leather pieces, everything from bomber jackets to biking jackets, lingerie and women's clothing, some chains and whips, and everything a biker could want or need.
Mike jokes (a lot, about a lot of things) that when people ask if they're a bike shop or a lingerie shop, he say "well, bike, but we sell just as much of the sexiness, and it sells well." He also says that he can have breakfast in the kitchen with his wife.... and I'll just let your mind wander with that one.
Dozer and Mike are good people, funny, inappropriate, welcoming and friends with all sorts of bikers. Overall it's a great experience that you won't want to miss. We liked--or at least were so intrigued by it--we made our way back for seconds during the 4th. The bikini bike wash, that yes I was going to participate in, got rained out but there were still more than happy to welcome us for some beer, some hot tubbing, some burgers and non-stop Spongebob (for the kid, obviously, not us, we weren't that rebellious).
Helmets, jackets, gloves, pants, chaps--assless or otherwise--add some corsets and chains and some sex toys and you've got Naked Leather. The walls are lined with racks and you can try anything on. The leather's of good grade, and called "naked leather" because it's mostly untreated and not blended. It'll last you a long time, that's for sure, and if you're so inclined to get on a bike up in Maine as most people seem to be during the summer, this store will deck you out right.
Naked Leather.com can be found at most major bike rallies and smaller ones in the North East and along the Eastern Seaboard, if you see them be sure to stop in and say hi. They'll probably invite you over for some BBQ and beers, then try and take you out later that night--get you all trashy and trashed. Like I said, it's the unplanned that's the most fun.

V-Chip for Computers Is Proposed
Critics Say Education, Not Technology, Is Key to Keeping Online Smut From Kids
By SIBILE MORENCY
Aug. 17, 2007
The Internet continues to enjoy the highest constitutional freedoms.
Numerous attempts to censor online material, even for the sake of protecting minors from exposure to indecent material, have repeatedly been struck down by the Supreme Court.
But parents are increasingly concerned about what their kids can access on the Web, and legislators continue to seek ways to put limits on what kids can see.
"Some form of regulation is needed because some stuff just shouldn't be out there," said Anna Manokoune, a 33-year-old Garden Grove, Calif., mother of five girls ages 6 to 14.
In response to such concerns, Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., introduced the Child Safe Viewing Act in February. The bill mandates that the Federal Communications Commission continuously review and implement the most cutting-edge technologies that can help parents censor audio and video material their kids see over the Internet.
"It's an uphill battle for parents trying to protect their kids from viewing inappropriate programming," Pryor said. "Today's technology to protect children from indecency goes above and beyond the capabilities of the V-Chip. And with over 500 channels and video streaming, parents could use a little help. The time for the FCC to act on behalf of our children is now. My legislation will make sure that happens."
The bill was passed unanimously this month by the Senate Commerce Committee and currently awaits debate on the Senate floor. Pryor is confident that the bill will eventually become law, according to a Senate aide.
As part of the 1996 Telecommunications Act, Congress required that manufacturers embed a V-Chip within televisions to let parents screen the programs their children were watching according to a rating system.
However, a recent Kaiser Family Foundation national survey revealed that 57 percent of parents weren't even aware that they had a V-Chip. Some critics believe that developing a form of V-Chip for computers might prove useless because parents didn't even use it when it was in their televisions.
'V-Chip Is a Failure'
"The V-Chip is a failure," said Leslie Harris, CEO of the Center for Democracy and Technology. "Ten years after the V-Chip, there's no innovation. The FCC has no experience with the Internet. We're very concerned that that this is the first step towards mandated technology for TV and Internet."
She insists that handing over an inquiry into the latest censoring technologies for parents to the FCC is a conflict of interest.
"If Congress wants to inform itself of what new technology there is, they should ask a neutral party to do this. Not one with an interest in regulation," she said. "[The bill] is a big step back for openness, innovation and freedom, which is the hallmark of the Internet."
Joan Irvine, executive director of the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection, says the Child Safe Viewing Act is repetitive because many blocking and filtering technologies are already available.
"I don't see this bill being effective because everything in the bill has already been done," she said.
She also warns against the unrealistic expectation that the FCC can find and implement blocking technology that will eliminate all inappropriate material from minors' computers, TVs, cell phones and portable media devices.
"No matter what the technology, it won't block pedophiles. ASACP [Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection] launched the RTA or Restricted to Adults Web site label at the beginning of this year," she said. "While some companies will use the label, others won't so they won't be filtered out. Commercial child porn — you think they're gonna label [it]? And pedophiles saying their 14 or 15 years old? There is no way for the system to prove whether they are or [are] not."
Education Vs. Technology
Herb Lin, a senior scientist at the National Research Council, believes that education is paramount to protecting children, not filtering technology.
"While technology and the law have a meaningful, not trivial role, what has been missing is education," Lin said.
He then drew an analogy to the bill's attempt to shield children.
"If you have a swimming pool, what do you do, lock up the pool? Sure, but most important thing to do is to teach kids how to swim," he said.
He also explains what he believes is the fundamental problem with Pryor's legislation: effectiveness.
"All of these approaches to filtering, you ave to get people to use them. If [they don't] use them, then they're not effective. Most people don't use them. That doesn't mean they shouldn't have the option," Lin said. "No filter is 100 percent effective. If it's 90 percent effective, for example in getting kids to not see people naked, you still have to deal with kids seeing it now and then. If you educate your kids, then it doesn't matter because they already know how to conduct themselves."
Marv Johnson, legislative counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union, also advocates education.
"The most effective thing for the government to do is to fund media relation education for parents and children. Everybody needs to know how to be a savvy media consumer in this day and age," Johnson said. "The government tends to ignore media education and goes for content regulation. Clearly that will cause a First Amendment problem. The least constitutionally objectionable way is mostly ignored by people who make these proposals."
Although Pryor introduced the Safe Viewing Act to empower parents to protect their kids from obscene material and profane language, critics such as Barry Fagin, founder of Families Against Internet Censorship, view the bill as another nail in the coffin of parental rights.
"Bills like this encourage bad parenting. Friends at the FCC taking care of it. For every family with complaints about indecent programming, what are you doing? Why not turn the TV off? Shame on you! Instead you're sending it to an anonymous bureaucrat," said Fagin, who teaches at the Air Force Academy and stressed that he was expressing his own opinion, not the opinion of the government.
Fagin is convinced that ultimately parents are responsible for the material their children view.
"Raising children is much harder than running the country. Congress should realize that and let parents do their job," he said.
As the co-author of a National Academy of Science report on the subject, Lin knows firsthand the tools and strategies available to protect kids from pornography and other inappropriate Internet content. Yet, he chooses to monitor the material his 12-year-old daughter views himself.
"I have no personal evidence that the V-Chip has an impact at all on TV," he said. "I don't use it. I keep an eye on what my kid watches. She sits in the living room with the computer and screen facing the center of the room. I do my work in the living room. The time has come when she wants a computer in her room, but I want to see what she's doing."

Ensure that document matches include...
...all of these word(s):
...and optionally include these word(s):
...but do not have these word(s):
Enter your phrase:
Enter the first few characters of a word:
There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.
Boolean Operators
You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.
example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example:
default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.
example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.
example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.
Wildcard/Prefix queries
You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.

From solving problems in class assignments to facing real world situations, critical thinking is a valuable skill for students to master. Critical thinking is the ability to analyze the way you think and present evidence for your ideas, rather than simply accepting your personal reasoning as sufficient proof. You can gain numerous benefits from mastering critical thinking skills, such as better control of your own learning and empathy for other points of view.
Autonomous Learning
Rather than relying on teachers and classroom time for instruction and guidance, students with critical thinking skills become more independent, self-directed learners. Researcher Jane Qinjuan Zhang writes that critical thinking enables students to assess their learning styles, strengths and weaknesses, and allows them to take ownership of their education. For example, students in an English class might write reflective letters about how their writing has improved and what they still need to work on. This lets them view their performance objectively and reach conclusions about what goals they can set next for their work.
Higher Achievement
Learning critical thinking skills can also enhance your academic performance. According to Linda Elder and Richard Paul, authors of "Critical Thinking Development: A Stage Theory," students who know how to analyze and critique ideas are able to make connections across disciplines, see knowledge as useful and applicable to daily life and understand content on a deeper, more lasting level. For example, AP United States History students learn to analyze and compare historical events. Writing about history can therefore help them better understand its relevance and application to present-day concerns.
Appropriate Emotional Appeal
It's easy to let your emotions take over when making an important decision or arguing for your opinion, especially if you are personally invested in it. However, "Why Critical Thinking?", a report from York University, asserts that critical thinking can help you effectively use emotional appeal, letting your feelings influence, but not control your reasoning. For example, a public speaking student arguing for health care reform might share a personal story about a relative who struggles with getting insurance, but also provide solid supporting evidence from credible sources to support this position.

Teamwork and Empathy
Ultimately, critical thinking skills help you to better understand the experiences and views of others, enhancing your ability to work with different people. For example, the Scholastic Parents article "Think About It: Critical Thinking" shares that group activities let elementary school students hear their peers' ideas for accomplishing a task, rather than zeroing in on their own thoughts. This not only shows them that any given problem can have multiple solutions, but lets them work together to agree on one idea. Activities like this teach students to cooperate rather than make judgments or assumptions.

Picture: Sandra Bernhard and Diane von Furstenberg Opening party of the DVF Store at 14th and Washington Street New York City, USA - 30.05.07
Actress-comedienne Sandra Bernhard has finally come clean about her alleged love affair with Madonna - it was all made up.
The pair became friends in the late 1980s and their increasing closeness sparked rumours of something more.
But despite being purely platonic, the 52-year-old Roseanne star - who 'came out' as a lesbian several years ago - enjoyed every minute of the speculation.
She says, "I don't mind being asked about Madonna. It was awesome at the time. We had a really funny friendship and kind of played with the press and the media.
"It was before the internet and there was still a little bit of allure and excitement and fun to it."
Sandra Bernhard, where did she go?If this question has been troubling you, rest easy: She's...

Moscow / S.Pb. | 23:00
Benn Lee Jordan (born October 28, 1978) is an American electronica musician operating under many pseudonyms. Since 1999 his most widely distributed and eclectic music has been released under the name of The Flashbulb. Other popular names Benn has released as are Acidwolf, Human Action Network, and FlexE.
ordan was born in Georgia in 1978 and moved to South Chicago to live with his grandparents at a young age. Influenced by the local jazz scene, Jordan was an accomplished self-taught guitarist as a child. Due to being left-handed and not having lessons, he learned to play a right-handed guitar upside down, which he continues to do. He began his music career releasing instrumental music on small labels in the United States and Europe in 1996 under various aliases, most notably The Flashbulb, and years later he began to work as a freelance composer for various television and film agencies. Benn is still an active jazz guitar player and drummer at Chicago venues. The Flashbulb has toured and worked with The Dillinger Escape Plan which helped diversify his listeners. Jordan has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which he admits is one of the reasons why extended and international touring has been increasingly difficult in recent years.
In recent years, Jordan has seen much success for himself in composing for television and film. In 2006, Jordan's music ("Passage D" from his album Kirlian Selections) was featured in Dove's Evolution promotional campaign for its Campaign for Real Beauty website, which has drawn a large amount of attention from the mainstream media. The campaign took the commercial film winner at Cannes as well as many other prestigious awards. In addition, Jordan had been nominated for a 2007 London International Award for the "Best Use Of Music" category. In 2008, Jordan had completed work in branding, having created stings and trademark sounds for companies such as Dove, Knowledge, Verizon, and many others. Jordan is currently represented by Vapor Music Group, a large international creative firm operating out of Toronto, and currently owns and operates their production and recording facilities in Chicago.
As The Flashbulb, Jordan typically releases drill 'n' bass or breakcore styled music. His style differs strongly between albums, but they all have a cohesive bond tied around fast drum programming, acid-influenced melodies, and a wide array of live instrumentation from various instruments Jordan has acquired. He also often records his melodies through MIDI-synced guitars. His guitar style and skill has gained attention because he typically plays it strung backwards, and makes heavy use of fast sweeping and tapping. The last two Flashbulb albums have featured violinist Greg Hirte, who is featured heavily on The Flashbulb's 2008 album, Soundtrack to a Vacant Life, as well. Soundtrack to a Vacant Life is, as Jordan stated in a recent interview, a step away from the breakcore genre. He also said that this step is likely to be a permanent trend in the direction of his music, which has been noted in more recent releases under his own name, such as Pale Blue Dot (album) and Louisiana Mourning.
Under other aliases, Benn Jordan's work varies quite a bit. His Acidwolf and Human Action Network aliases feature retro acid music that uses old drum machines such as the TR-808 and relies heavily on the melodies of the TB-303. Tracks made under the FlexE alias tend to be laid-back and classic acid. According to him, he showcases his more fundamental, classical, and personal pieces under his own name, Benn Jordan.
After the collapse of Sublight Records, instead of taking on another contract, Jordan released his most anticipated album Soundtrack To A Vacant Life on his own record label called Alphabasic. On the day of release, he personally uploaded copies of the album to music piracy sites including a small HTML file explaining his relaxed views on file sharing and showing listeners where they could give support if they desired. This resulted in attention by mainstream press and the album was soon to be the most downloaded album on many popular file sharing networks. Jordan is now a consultant for groups working with United States Congress to draw up a proposal for the idea of socialized copyright.

'Russisches Kammermusikfest Hamburg
The special charm of Russian chamber music is the freshness and inspiration of Russian composers. In the 19th and 20th century Russian music reflects the influence of Russian folk songs, Russian literature and fairy tales, but also European classical music.
These countless nuances of Russian chamber music enrich this unique
national music festival in Hamburg. Hamburg is not only a sister city of St. Petersburg for over 55 years, but also has many cultural and economic ties with the rest of Russia.
The festival is being held for the fourth year.
For this year's festival, the pianist Elisaveta Blumina takes the helm as Artistic Director.
Elisaveta Blumina was born in Leningrad. She studied at the Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory, and later went on to study with Evgeny Korolev at the Hochschule for Music and Theatre in Hamburg. Since then, Hamburg has become her second home and starting point for her international career.
This year, the festival will focus on the composer Mieczyslaw Weinberg (1919-1996).
M. Weinberg is well known in the world of music. Shostakovich referred to Weinberg as being "one of the greatest composers of our time". A great artist with a fascinating original talent, Weinberg covered a wide spectrum of creative interests. In his lifetime he composed twenty-two symphonies, two sinfoniettas, four chamber symphonies, seven operas, four operettas, three ballets, seventeen string quartets, five concertos, music for numerous films and cartoons, and many theater productions.
Alongside Weinberg, there will be performances of further great composers such as Rachmaninov, Arensky, Silvestrov, Borodin, Medtner, Podgaiz, Gavrilin, Gliere, Davydov and many others.
We wish for you to enjoy the interesting concerts, great music, and meeting and listening to many world-renowned musicians.'
Here's a link for the website, which will be announcing concert and ticket details soon: Link

First report of Phytophthora inflata on nursery plants of Rhododendron spp., Gaultheria shalon and Vaccinium vitis-idaea in Scotland
Scottish Agricultural Science Agency (SASA), East Craigs, Edinburgh EH12 8NJ, UK
Accepted: 18 Feb 2005
Within statutory surveys for Phytophthora ramorum, a Rhododendron ponticum with wilting foliage and blackened shoot tips, from a nursery in Perthshire, was examined in September 2003. A homothallic Phytophthora spp. was isolated on selective V8 medium (PARPNH) (Jung et al., 1996), showing a weak stellate pattern with sparse aerial mycelium. The antheridia were paragynous, some of them strikingly large or twisted (Fig. 1).
Hardly any sporangia were produced on V8 agar, but did develop abundantly in water and were semipapillate and ovoid, ellipsoid or obturbinate in shape (Fig. 2). Later in the year, the same Phytophthora was isolated from another rhododendron from an adjoining nursery and from a Gaultheria shalon and a Vaccinium vitis-idaea with leaf lesions and dieback symptoms from a nursery in Stirlingshire.
Detached leaves of Gaultheria shalon (Fig. 3) and Rhododendron ponticum were inoculated with mycelium plugs of the new isolates from Gaultheria and Rhododendron, respectively. After 4 days at 18-20°C and with a 10 h day-light cycle, typical lesions started to develop from which the fungus was re-isolated, fulfilling Koch's postulates. Pathogenicity on Vaccinium vitis-idaea has not yet been confirmed.
The ITS1, 5.8S subunit, and ITS 2 region of the ribosomal RNA gene of all isolates was sequenced (GenBank accession numbers AY879291-879294) and compared with ITS sequences of known Phytophthora species obtained from GenBank. The closest matches (98% identity) were with Phytophthora inflata and Phytophthora citricola. Sequencing of the cytochrome C oxidase (cox) subunit I gene, after amplification with primers CoxF4N and CoxR4N (Kroon et al., 2004) confirmed P. inflata (AY894684-894687).
P. inflata was first described by Caroselli & Tucker (1949), causing a pit canker on elm trees in Michigan. Since this first description, the pathogen has only once been reported in the UK (Hall et al., 1992), isolated from roots of Sambucus tenuifolium and Syringa vulgaris. As reference, one of these isolates (IMI 342899 from Sambucus) was compared to the new isolates, showing the same morphological features. The distinct "irregularly shaped swollen†hyphae Hall observed on Lima bean agar were also observed on V8 agar (Fig. 4).

Saturday June 8, 2013 Algoma Little League held its ground breaking ceremony for the addition of two new baseball fields. These new fields will be used for Algoma Little League T-Ball and Machine Pitch teams. The fields will be located along side the Jr. Baseball & Minor/Major baseball fields. Currently they have been using temporary fields located behind the Algoma Township offices and a great distance from the rest of the league. The fields are being constructed by Chaney Excavating and Cedar Springs fencing and will be ready for the 2014 season. This will be a great addition to Algoma Sport Park, Algoma Township, and Algoma Little League.
Algoma Little League has already secured four sponsors for this project: Chaney Excavating, Miller Welding & Supply, Rogers Hardware, & Sparta Chevrolet. There is plenty of need for more sponsorships. To help sponsor these fields you should contact Brad Osburn at 616-540-9728 for details and to make a tax exempt contribution. Algoma Little League T-Ball & Machine-pitch fields will be located next to the Jr. Baseball field on the corner of Algoma & 13 Mile Road. We are proud to have athletes from Cedar Springs, Rockford, & Sparta School districts! The total cost of these new fields is approximately $30,000.00, a cost the league and community feels is money well spent!

The Sixties: A Journal of History, Politics and Culture
No recent decade has been so powerfully transformative in the United States and much of the world as the 1960s. The era's social movements - from civil rights, to feminism, student and youth protest, environmentalism, and nascent conservativism - dramatically changed the political culture of the developed west. Meanwhile, the decade's decolonization struggles altered the nature and balance of global power. In Communist Europe, incipient democracy movements set the stage for the revolutions that ended the Cold War. Collectively, these movements gave the 1960s their signal identity, and dominate understandings of their historical legacy.
Whether in the United States, or across the globe, no recent decade has had such an enduring grip on politics, culture, and consciousness as the 1960s.
The Sixties: A Journal of History, Politics and Culture, features cross-disciplinary, accessible and cutting-edge scholarship from academics and public intellectuals. In addition to research essays and book reviews, The Sixties includes conversations, interviews, graphics, and analyses of the ways the 1960s continue to be constructed in contemporary popular culture.

I am not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it happens.
-- Woody Allen
A wonderful message that landed into my inbox! Thought it worth sharing as we head into the weekend and spend some quality time with ourselves.
"In deep sleep you have no world for you. But you are there in that world. You also feel very comfortable. Only after awakening from sleep do you feel lost for comfort. During waking hours, this sense of identification with body and mind prevails.
This is something new to you. In your sleep there is no ego.
The birth of your individuality with your ego is considered as your birth.
When that individuality of the mind is eliminated what remains is only that of true self.
And, that is the eternal bliss!"
Do have a wonderful and safe weekend!

While gangster film fans are waiting for the John Gotti biopic film to be made with John Travolta, Sylvester Stallone will hit the big screen portraying another NY based late mobster known as "The Grim Reaper," Gregory Scarpa Jr. After a successful run with his Expendables franchise, Sylvester Stallone will appear in a gangster film called Scarpa based on the life of the late mobster Gregory Scarpa Sr.
Scarpa which is due for a 2015 release has some talented names attached to it. The films' script is written by author Nicholas Pileggi, produced by Avi Lerner of Millennium Films as well as Irwin Winkler and directed by Brad Furman. Nicholas Pileggi is best known for his hit films Casino, Goodfellas, City Hall and Vegas. Irwin Winkler produced such classic films such as Rocky, Raging Bull, The Wolf of Wall Street and the classic gangster film Goodfellas. Brad Furman had a successful film with Matthew McConaughey in The Lincoln Lawyer.
Scarpa is a biopic of former Brooklyn born Colombo capo and enforcer Gregory Scarpa Sr., who was known as "The Grim Reaper," and the "Mad Hatter." During the 70's and 80's Scarpa was an enforcer for the Colombo crime family under the direction of feared mob boss Carmine "The Snake" Persico. Scarpa allegedly ran a host of illegal activities from his social club known as the Wimp Boys Social Club. Life changed for Scarpa in 1962 when he was arrested for armed robbery. To avoid a lengthy prison sentence, Scarpa decided to begin working as an undercover informant for the FBI. Scarpa's work as an FBI informant lasted for over twenty years and led to an unethical relationship with FBI agent Lindley DeVecchio.
Stallone is not a stranger to gangster films. In 2000, Stallone portrayed a Las Vegas mob enforcer in the remake of the film Get Carter. Some other films with a crime element that Stallone appeared in are Oscar, Stop! Or My Mom will Shoot, Bullet to the Head, Avenging Angelo, Copland, and the Lord's of Flatbush and Escape Plan.
Some fans would have loved to see Martin Scorsese joining forces with Pileggi for Scarpa, but it will be interesting to see how Brad Furman and the crew do with this mob true story. The film's shooting location is listed as Bulgaria. It would be nice to see at least some of the film using real New York City locations. Other than Stallone starring as Gregory Scarpa Sr., a full cast list has not been released as of yet for this film.

I have always been a firm believer in the importance of laughing stress off. Especially when it comes to parenting. Parenting is hard enough when you have to worry about finding shoes, snotty noses, and piles of laundry, but there's is no way to get through those 18 years without some humor. Sometimes it can be hard to find humor in every situation but if you look hard enough and let your imagination run wild for a moment, it is there. Some people may think my humor is a bit excessive and inappropriate in sensitive situations, but really people, how else are we supposed to get through this wretched life?
One of my favorite things is to hear other mothers "not-so-funny in the moment but hilarious after the fact" stories about their children. When I came across a book called "two sisters misguided manual to motherhood" I had to read it.
My expectations of deep belly laughter about someone else's parenting horror stories were throughly fulfilled through paint fiascos, bathroom mishaps, and parent anger management but what I didn't expect as I got to know the authors and their families was to feel so much validation in being human. I felt such comfort in knowing that expecting ourselves to be the perfect super moms, keep a spotless house, always have dinner ready, have all the homework turned in and be everywhere on time is more like demanding that we spontaneously combust into tiny little minions that run around fulfilling the needs of our children, our husbands, the house, clients at work, oh and let's not forget that darn fish that you secretly hope will take a ride on the porcelain express soon. It's simply impossible and unrealistic.
Jamie and Jessica do an amazing job of helping the reader to accept their humanity and help them to realize that our imperfections are what makes life interesting! Why shouldn't we embrace them!
There is no such thing as perfection even though we as moms strive for it daily. The authors help us to understand that if perfection is the measuring stick we use on ourselves at the end of the day, we will never be enough. Accepting our own shortcomings and working with them instead of against them helps us to understand that all we can really do is make a perfect effort. And in that perfect effort comes gum in the dogs hair, accidentally dying your husbands work shirts every color but white, and kneading your daughters new pet caterpillar she placed on the counter while you weren't looking into your famous homemade pizza dough…. And still serving it for dinner. My perfect effort will be different from yours but what we must remember is that Super Mom purely exists in small moments that come and go amidst the chaos of our lives.

Berkeley Law professor David Lieberman and sociology professor Trond Petersen today were named the recipients of the Berkeley Faculty Service Award for 2017.
The award, given annually, honors a member of the Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate for outstanding and dedicated service to the campus, and whose work has significantly enhanced the quality of the campus as an educational institution and community of scholars. The winners are selected by the Berkeley Division.
Lieberman, who is the James W. and Isabel Coffroth Professor of Jurisprudence, "has served Berkeley tirelessly and effectively," according to his award citation. Among many other contributions, he turned around the Jewish Studies program. When he took over as chair of a special task force on Jewish Studies, the citation relates, the program had hit bottom: It no longer had staff or office, was reduced to four faculty, and was about to close, orphaning 12 graduate students.
"David 'did the impossible,' turning around a program that few could see being revived, at an unheard-of speed on a campus not known for institutional agility," writes professor Kenneth Bamberger, who formerly served as Jewish Studies co-chair.
Petersen has served as chair of the Department of Sociology, associate dean for Social Sciences and served on several Senate committees. His "major contribution," according to his citation, has come in the area of international education. Peterson built the Berkeley International Study Program and founded the Peder Sather Center, which benefited both his department and the campus overall.
He was recently awarded a knighthood by the Norwegian government for all of his good works.

I came to age as a Production Assistant at the University of Oregon Athletic Department where I served as a creative Swiss Army Knife, ready to be used anywhere and everywhere. During my time there, I became extremely knowledgeable in the areas of Videography, Photography, Graphic Design, and Motion Graphics. These skills were put to use through highlight videos, motion graphic packages for in-game entertainment and promotions, marketing collateral of various use, and in-house purposes. These services were provided to all of the major sports teams at Oregon, specifically Football.
Since arriving at Capacity Commercial Group in mid 2015, my aim has been to change the way commercial real estate is being marketed — to bring a higher quality of design across all platforms (print, video, photography, web). I am extremely passionate about the company, it's people, and it's brand. This drives me to provide the best work possible day in and day out.

Steve Anderson received his BA in Broadcasting from San Francisco State University. Following graduation he opened an independent motorcycle repair business in San Francisco's Mission District, which he operated for several years. He also took time to study the Japanese martial art Aikido, or "Way of Harmony," living in the Dojo as an apprentice student called "uchi dechi" for a year and training two and one-half hours per day. He also played in various local bands during this time.
Steve was accepted by U.C. Hastings College of Law, and graduated in 1998 with academic honors (cum laude), having achieved the highest scores in Evidence, Criminal Procedure, Bankruptcy and Creditors Remedies, and Personal Injury Litigation. Following law school Steve was offered an opportunity to teach law overseas at a Russian law school called Saratov State Academy of Law (SGAP), which he did for a semester. Upon his return from Russia Steve went to work as the first in-house lawyer for a San Francisco startup called innoVentry Corporation.
From 1999 to 2003 Steve had the privilege of serving as law clerk to United States District Judge (now Senior United States District Judge) Anthony W. Ishii of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California (Fresno Division). There, he performed extensive legal research and wrote orders and opinions of the court on a daily basis. Following his clerkship, Steve took a position as corporate counsel for American Suzuki Motor Corporation (now Suzuki Motor of America) in Orange County, CA, and thereafter as a contract attorney (and eventually senior counsel) with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD).
Following his employment with AMD, Steve worked for a variety of technology companies located in the Silicon Valley and abroad, ranging in size from early-stage startups to publicly traded Fortune 500 companies. Notable among these are Intuit Inc., AVAST Software, an Andreessen Horowitz-backed startup called Instart Logic, and FLEX by Fenwick, the alternative legal staffing arm of Fenwick & West LLP.
Although trained in litigation by virtue of his clerkship experience, Steve most enjoys the deal-making and strategic aspects of transactional law — particularly projects involving new technologies or the joint development of products or markets. He also appreciates the challenges associated with high-dollar transactions; Steve has negotiated deals with a combined value to clients well into the hundreds of millions of dollars. Steve also enjoys working with nonprofit and philanthropic causes, having served as board member and officer of two San Francisco nonprofits: Central City Hospitality House and the Zero Net Energy Working Group (ZNEWG).
Steve has over 17 years of experience as an attorney.

Happy Monday! I spent the better part of the weekend watching wrestling matches and being a good coaches wife, :) but was able to spend some time in the studio creating Sunday afternoon. Laundry didn't quite get done but….oh well there's plenty of time to do that during the week right?! ;)
I am finding some time to spend on challenges, something I used to do a lot when I first started stamping and blogging and it's been fun to get back to being inspired by a fun challenge. My card was created with the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches, the inspiration photo from Curtain Call for a cozy quilt theme and the hexagon challenge over at Moxie Fab World in mind.
I used the Six Sided Sampler stamp step and stamped the hexagons in Blushing Bride, Coastal Cabana, Calypso Coral, So Saffron and Baked Brown Sugar. I splattered the white card base with pool party ink and topped it off with a simple sentiment adhered to the card front. Last, I added an in color boutique embellishment to the sentiment strip and a few candy dots to the card base.
I varied a little bit from the sketch, but I think the general concept is conveyed and the colors came from the inspiration photo.
Hmmm, I guess I better go work on that laundry now!

San Francisco Landmarks
This building, in the Mission Revival style, was designed by Bay Area architect Reinhold Denke for the German-Americans Turnverein Society to provide gymnastic and meeting facilities.
For the next 25 years, Mission Turn Hall as it was known, served all populations in the heterogeneous Mission District. The building provided after-school classes for youngsters, a monthly exhibition followed by a social and dance, weddings, receptions, and parties. The Native Sons and Daughters of the Golden West were tenants in the building for fifty years.
In 1935, the Sons of Norway and the Daughters of Norway purchased the building and renamed it Dovre Hall, after a mountain range in Norway.
In 1978, the building was purchased by the San Francisco Women's Centers Inc. and renamed the Women's Building.
The mural Maestrapeace which covers two of the exterior walls was painted in 1994 by seven women artists and many helpers: Juana Alicia, Miranda Bergman, Edythe Boone, Susan Kelk Cervantes, Meera Desai, Yvonne Littleton and Irene Perez.
San Francisco Street Trees
Consider Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey). Lovely building.
Consider the Taj Mahal, the Doge's Palace, the Parthenon, the Lincoln Memorial, the Sagrada Familia, the Winter Palace of the Tsar, the Hagia Sophia, San Francisco's own City Hall and Opera House and Legion of Honor.
Lovely buildings, all. Essential to their appeal is that they stand unobstructed to be admired from any angle and at any distance.
Over the past twenty years or so, many of San Francisco's most distinctive buildings have gone into hiding behind ill-considered street trees. Except for the Spreckels Mansion Spite Hedge which clearly flips the bird to San Francisco, most of these trees were planted in good faith to beautify the streetscape, filter the air, increase property values; but like the cute SPCA puppy who grows up to be a two hundred pound mastiff, many of our street trees would be more at home in the country than the city.
Here is a short list of some striking San Francisco buildings which I wish were more clearly visible. I'm sure the Hop-On Hop-Off tourists would enjoy them too. They can see an ineptly pruned ficus or an ailing plane tree anywhere.

Link Found between Biologics and Cancer
Several research studies have reported possible links between biologics and cancer. In one landmark study, the Mayo Clinic found evidence of an increased risk of serious infections and a dose-dependent increased risk of cancer in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with anti-TNF antibody therapy such as Enbrel and Humira.
These increased risks are now being included in all packaging by manufacturers of these medications.

text: This week we're going to defer our own story time to Grandma Stella, the oldest missionary in Japan. She is an absolutely unforgettable woman who will challenge anyone she meets to live for God in the fullest. In 2008, we had the privilege of meeting Stella and her husband Ralph just before he was promoted to Heaven. Ralph and Stella lead the ministry in Takamatsu, where we served until near the end of Ralph's life when he handed things over to Mike and Barbara Gray. Here is an interview with Stella filmed at the very end of '08 that I'm sure will bless you. While this was filmed, there were also 2 short videos filmed on TEAM Japan that will open your heart to the laborers and you might just see us pop in for a bit
