Spice kitchens, more bedrooms, extra bathrooms, main floor bedrooms with ensuites, and prayer rooms.
Calgary builders are reconfiguring floor plans to accommodate the growing demand for these amenities in homes as the city grows and the ethnic, cultural and multi-generational makeup of families changes.
In the new community of SkyView Ranch in the city's northeast, two new Excel Homes show homes are proving popular.
"Our two show homes are based on what everyone has been telling me they want," says Cathey Tracey, senior area manager with Excel Homes. "They're saying, 'We want bigger homes with more bedrooms and more bathrooms.'"
The Highwood and the Branford are becoming their two bestselling homes, she says.
The 3,165-square-foot Highwood show home starts at $509,900.
"We built a five-bedroom, fiveand-a-half baths with a double kitchen and a spice kitchen, and we even put in the dream laundry room, so it's got two sets of laundry with a sink upstairs," she says.
Each bedroom has an ensuite and the spice kitchen is an extra cooking area to help contain stronger scents. "The family is staying together longer, or they have extended family living with them," she says.
"It has a private loft upstairs. You can even have two upper family rooms."
The second show home, the 2,414-square-foot Branford, features four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths. It starts at $444,900.
Since the models went on sale in March, Excel has sold at least eight or nine homes of each plan, says Tracey.
Many buyers live with extended families and about 70 per cent of the market has an Asian background, she says.
Space was the driving need for homebuyers Cary Serack, a city transit bus operator, and his wife Lily, an accountant.
"My big needs were a house with five bedrooms," says Cary.
"I've got a mother-in-law and three kids, and a wife. We were looking for something that would accommodate us and have a guest room."
His family from Saskatchewan, Edmonton and Washington state will now be able to stay with the Seracks on visits.
"I don't like small houses," he says. "I don't like small cramped spaces. I'm a big area kind of guy."
Serack grew up in Saskatchewan with six brothers, a sister and a stepsister.
"For us, it was always crowded," he says.
"We weren't a family with a lot of anything. My parents struggled for many years trying to keep food on the table."
A roomy kitchen that helps create a group atmosphere and sense of community appeals to him.
"When I was younger, I worked in restaurants where they have larger kitchens," he says.
"If you have a smaller kitchen, it makes it harder to do anything because you're stumbling over everything.
"With a bigger area, it actually allows you to cook more easily. Even though there's more to clean up, it's easier to keep clean.
"I like cooking noodles from scratch, bread, so for me, having that big surface to work on is better."
The only aspect of the Highwood plan Serack wasn't keen on were the bedrooms over the garage.
Instead, he turned the bonus room into a bedroom and moved another bedroom to the upstairs loft. The area over the garage became a large playroom with access to a main bathroom.
"My kids are (ages) three, five and seven, and I want them to have a good play area," says Serack. "With the loft, it makes for two fair-sized bedrooms.
My two sons can go in one and my daughter can go in the other one. With the bathroom upstairs, they can share."
Serack's mother-in-law has lived with the family for the past five years. She will have her own ensuite with her bedroom.
Homes by Avi recently developed three pre-planned options for its Caldwell floor plan to meet rising multi-generational or cultural needs.
The Caldwell is one of the new show homes in Sherwood in the city's northwest.
The 2,312-square-foot house has four bedrooms, three-anda-half baths and a two-car garage, and starts at $492,000.
"A lot of families, particularly East Indian, have very large extended families," says Terry Jackson, area sales manager for Homes by Avi in Sherwood.
"In many cases, they may have a parent or parents living with them who could be quite elderly. They really can't go up or down stairs, so another need that has come up is a mainfloor bedroom.
"They would also like a full bathroom. Most homes just have room for a half-bath on the main floor."
The floor plan reworks the Caldwell's dining room/flex room at the front of the house into a bedroom, as well as altering the entrance foyer to make space for a full four-piece bathroom.
The flex room can also be turned into a dedicated prayer room, a request Jackson has discussed with a client.
With many Calgary families of Asian background, demand for spice kitchens is on the rise.
"The food is very spicy and aromatic," says Jackson.
"The dilemma with that is it's very pervasive. It gets through the whole house into clothes and closets."
A second kitchen beside the main kitchen helps manage strong scents. A spice kitchen requires a gas range, a sink and range hood vented to the outside.
"We have two variations of that theme, one with an inclusive pantry and one with a shared pantry to the kitchen," says Jackson.
In Excel's Highwood floor plan, the spice kitchen has two pocket doors - one to the main kitchen and one to the dining room.
The pantry is accessed through the spice kitchen.
In homes that do not install the spice kitchen, the area is a butler's pantry, keeping the sink and the countertop, but not including the extra stove and fan.
Serack, who has moved more than 30 times in his life, is looking forward to this last move from Canyon Meadows in southwest Calgary to his new home in the northeast late this year.
Besides having plenty of space for his multi-generational family and a large, friendly kitchen, Serack will be close to friends and his outdoor pursuits of hunting and fishing, which are all off to the north and east of the city.
"This is the first time I've built a house and I have no intention of moving," he says.
Builder: Excel Homes; the Highwood model.
DEVELOPER: Walton Development and Management
AREA: SkyView Ranch in the city's northeast.
PRICE: Highwood model starts at $509,900, including lot and GST.
DIRECTIONS: The Highwood show home is at 160 SkyView Shores Manor N.E. in the community of SkyView Ranch.
INFORMATION: Visit liveat skyview.ca or excelhomes.ca
A spice kitchen, or secondary kitchen, is an extra cooking space set aside from the main kitchen where oily or highly scented food can be prepared.
The separately ventilated space helps contain lingering scents.
Spice kitchens often have a gas range, range hood venting to the outside, a sink and a bit of counter space.
- Claire Young
Cary Serack and his wife, Lily.
BACKGROUND: Cary is a city transit bus operator and Lily is an accountant. Cary wanted a big house with plenty of space for his wife, family of three young children, his mother-inlaw and guests. The family bought the Highwood model by Excel Homes in SkyView Ranch for about $540,000.
The home includes many upgrades, such as a finished basement. The northeast location also provides easy access for many of the family's in-town and out-of-town friends and relatives to visit, as well as quicker access to Cary's leisure pursuits of hunting and fishing.
SkyView Ranch offers a variety of housing styles - from condos and townhomes to front-drive and laned single-family homes.
In the city's northeast, it has quick access to the airport and CrossIron Mills.
The CTrain will eventually reach the community. Walton Development and Management is developing the community, which offers views of the mountains, the downtown skyline, as well as the open prairie sky above.

Take a virtual tour of the master bedroom ensuite at the Stampede Dream Home by Homes by Avi.
This is the first peek at the interior of the home and is the third of six videos at homesbyavi.com/ dreamhome highlighting various aspects of the house, including framing the dwelling and its exterior.
The luxurious spa experience of the master ensuite includes a generous free-standing tub and a separate rain shower.
Still to come in the online video series will be the living room, kitchen, and the big move of the Stampede Dream Home to its final resting place in the southeast Calgary community of Walden.

Spring Training is the time of year avid baseball fans look forward to with excitement and anticipation. These workouts and games are very different from anything that takes place during the regular season--it's very reminiscent of Baseball's early days, where players played for love of the game and fans lived and died by their favorite players' on-field exploits.
The Giants are a part of the Cactus League (also home to teams including the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers, Kansas City Royals, Colorado Rockies, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Milwaukee Brewers, Oakland A's, and the San Diego Padres). Their training facility is Scottsdale Stadium.
Address: 7408 East Osborn Road, Scottsdale, Arizona 85251
Year Opened: 1992
Capacity: 10,500
Parking: Limited parking is available in nearby parking structures. Arrive early for the best parking availability and to avoid traffic congestion near the stadium.
Game Day: Watch the Giants' batting practice from 10 to 11 am; infield practice is from noon to 12:15.
Seating: 8,500 fixed seats, and 2,000 lawn seats. Shade is very limited, so bring plenty of sun block and a hat.
Autograph Opportunities: You can line up for autographs before and after games and workouts.
Concessions: No cans, glass, or open containers; no coolers or backpacks.
Scottsdale features plenty of things to keep you busy when you're not watching your favorite Giants players on the field.
Old Town Scottsdale: Provides visitors with plenty of shopping, great dining, and spectacular nightlife.
5th Avenue shops and boutiques: Unique shops, Native American galleries, and the famous Bob Parks' Horse Fountain.
Taliesin West: Fans of Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural designs will want to visit Taliesin West, where he and the Taliesin Fellowship spent time during the winter.
Golf: If you're an avid golf player, you'll love playing on one of the several famous courses in Scottsdale. Check out the Troon North Golf Club or the Grayhawk Golf Club.
We will provide you with everything you need, including hotel accommodations, a rental car, great tickets to the games and special opportunities to meet with your favorite players and coaches!

Item Description
Letter, E. B. Whitman to My dear friend [Franklin B.] Sanborn
Author: Whitman, E. B.
Date: January 16, 1858
E. B. Whitman wrote Sanborn this lengthy letter from Lawrence, describing the political events that had unfolded in the territory since the October 5, 1857, election. Among many other things, he mentioned the split that took the "National democrats" out of the movement over the issue of participation in the state elections under the Lecompton Constitution, January 1857. This "Free State ticket" was, according to Whitman, "a disgrace to the cause," but it attracted a good number of votes and won "a good working majority in both houses and so our people proclaim a victory." Whitman, who had long been a faithful supporter, was seemingly losing confidence in John Brown, as were "the people."

HTML5 hybrid app development platform Monaca has released Onsen UI 1.1 with Global Object support. Onsen UI is described as a custom-elements-based HTML5 UI framework for building mobile user interfaces for PhoneGap and Cordova.
Global Object support essentially hides the complexity of AngularJS and, at the same time, makes libraries like jQuery available. This means that developers who know JQuery can use Onsen UI to quickly build mobile interfaces.
It is worth pointing out that AngularJS.org says that while HTML is great for declaring static documents, it falters when developers try to use it for declaring dynamic views in Web applications. "AngularJS lets you extend HTML vocabulary for your application. The resulting environment is extraordinarily expressive, readable, and quick to develop," reads the site.
Monaca CEO Masahiro Tanaka says that Onsen UI 1.1 provides the power of modern HTML5 technology without requiring a deep understanding of the underlying complexity.
"With our new jQuery support, developers will have even more options when using Onsen UI to create world-class hybrid apps. This is especially useful for developers and designers who desire a more lightweight solution than AngularJS, or who want to increase the performance of their existing apps without a fundamental change," said Tanaka.
Onsen UI 1.1 also allows developers access to Onsen CSS Components, a free resource of UI templates and theme roller functionality.
Onsen UI 1.1 supports Android 2.3 and up, iOS 6 and up, and now Google Chrome and Safari. Onsen UI is built on the stack of Topcoat, AngularJS, HammerJS, and Font Awesome. Onsen UI itself is free and available under the Apache License.

Completely start again with our pass catchers. This isn't a knee-jerk reaction to tonight, because aside from Sunday these guys aren't getting it done. Too many drops tonight in the biggest game of the season.
- Golden Tate dropping 3-3, wiffing on a key block and then standing there like emotionless afterwards when Obomanu gets slammed into the turf for a two yard loss.
- Sidney Rice complaining at Wilson (on his back) because he didn't get a throw.
- Zach Millier... M.I.A. again and set to earn $11m next season.
- Braylon Edwards... gave up on the pick too easily. Sure, bad decision by RW. But I thought this was 'personal' for Edwards per twitter?
Doug Baldwin is the only guy coming out of tonight with any credit... an UDFA working his tail off for the cause.
If we want Russell Wilson to work, we have to get him reliable receivers. Guys who play with the same attitude as the rest of the team, that are going to go out there and work their asses off to the ball, fight for catches, fight to get open. The single biggest problem with this team begins and ends with the passing game and it's the reason we're 4-3... or more importantly... 0-3 in the NFC West.
Matt Ryan started as a rookie, and Atlanta got him Tony Gonzalez to go with Roddy White, then traded up for Julio Jones. We need to surround our young QB with similar talent if he's going to succeed.

text: Monday, June 04, 2012 APTA Launches New Resources on Term Protection for Physical Therapy In 2010, the APTA House of Delegates adopted RC 21-10 Action to Protect the Use of the Term, Title, and Designation of Physical Therapy and Physiotherapy. This motion directed APTA to develop and implement a plan to achieve full title and term protection for physical therapy and physiotherapy in all US jurisdictions. As part of the effort to fulfill RC 21-10, APTA has launched its new Term Protection Resource Center to provide members with resources on this issue. Included on the resource center site is background information on term protection, a basic summary of the current status of state term protection laws, information on filing complaints, and resources for chapters that seek to enact state legislation to provide for physical therapy term protection. As part of its term protection advocacy campaign, APTA will launch its new advertisement on term protection for physical therapy aimed at state policy makers, and designed educate them on the need to enact term protection laws. The full-page color advertisement will run in future editions of State Legislatures magazine, the monthly publication of the National Conference of State Legislatures which is provided to state legislators, legislative staff, and other state policy makers in all US jurisdictions. In addition, APTA, in conjunction with the law firm Tucker Arensberg PC, recently finished an exhaustive research and analysis of the various state term protections laws. APTA state chapter leaders will be provided a legal analysis of the current term protection laws in their state, and the mechanisms for enforcement to assist with moving forward on future advocacy efforts aimed at term protection for physical therapy.

A new agreement announced this week sees Oracle team up with British chip architecture company ARM (Advanced RISC Machines) to optimize the existing Java Platform Standard Edition (Java SE) for ARM 32-bit platforms and to add Java SE support for ARMv8 64-bit platforms.

Of perhaps more interest to embedded market developers more than anyone else, the firms' efforts will provide ARM architecture support for markets including datacenters, network infrastructure and, as mentioned, embedded computing applications.
This agreement will focus on delivering throughput and efficient scalability for ARM-based multi-core systems.
The firms say that this news "reflects the increasing applicability" of the combination of ARM and Oracle technology in server and network infrastructure.
There are also applications here for emerging applications in the machine-to-machine (M2M) market, such as industrial control, factory automation, and single-board computers.
Oracle's position is that its Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is used as a component for high-throughput Java applications in enterprise servers and embedded systems — so, as far as Oracle is concerned, its technology helps to increase the performance of ARM-based multi-core systems.
Additional areas for cooperation include improving boot-up performance, power savings, and library optimization, all of which are essential for designs used in the enterprise and embedded markets.
"The long-standing relationship between ARM and Oracle has enabled our mutual technologies to be deployed across a broad spectrum of products and applications," commented Henrik Stahl, vice president, Java Product Management, Oracle. "By working closely with ARM to enhance the JVM, adding support for 64-bit ARM technology and optimizing other aspects of the Java SE product for the ARM architecture, enterprise and embedded customers can reap the benefits of high-performance, energy-efficient platforms based on ARM technology."
"The industry has reached a significant inflection point as enterprise infrastructure, including servers and network routers, is now able to leverage high-performance, energy-efficient ARM technology," said Ian Drew, chief marketing officer and executive vice president, Business Development, ARM. "A diverse, optimized software ecosystem must be in place to support these systems. This extended relationship with Oracle to enhance Java SE is an important step in growing the ARM ecosystem, which is enabling businesses and consumers worldwide to discover new levels of energy efficiency and advanced performance."

Administration Papers (Mississippi Territory)
The Administration Papers are loose documents pertaining to the administration of the Mississippi Territory (1798-1817) by the four territorial governors (Winthrop Sargent, William C. C. Claiborne, Robert Williams, and David Holmes). The series includes papers of settlers, soldiers, and diplomats, as well as territorial, United States, and Indian officials. It includes first-hand accounts of frontier privations, political factions and intrigues (e.g. Aaron Burr's arrest near Washington, Mississippi, for allegedly plotting against the United States), fluid relations and borders with adjacent territories belonging to European and Indian nations (including the territorial militia's support of General Andrew Jackson during the War of 1812), and the day-to-day oversight of territorial government.

The twenty photographs in the Corinth, Miss., Collection, were acquired from his daughter, Zelma Katherine McCord, in 1983.

In July 2005, Mound Bayou, Mississippi, historian Milburn Crowe donated to MDAH an album of ninety photographs of town fathers (and cousins) Isaiah Thornton Montgomery and Benjamin Titus Green, their family, and friends who included abolitionist Frederick Douglass and Bolivar County Circuit Clerk Joseph Emory Ousley. The Montgomerys and Greens were prosperous, well educated former slaves of Joseph Emory Davis (Confederacy President Jefferson's older brother). The founding of Mound Bayou in 1887 was the culmination of their lifelong efforts to develop a self-sustaining African American community. Though faded with age, the photographs reveal the affluence and dignity of these nineteenth-century pioneers.

Educable Children Records (Mississippi), 1850-1965
Educable children records have proven invaluable to researchers trying to locate elusive Mississippians, as some families missed by the state or federal census may be found in these records. The materials presented here include lists of educable (school age) children submitted by Mississippi counties to the state's Secretary of State and Department of Education. The lists vary in content by year and may include such information as name, age, gender, race, election district or ward, name of parent or guardian, address, and reason for withdrawal from school.

The Luther Hamilton Photograph collection consists of 982 images of work and community activities in the American South during the early twentieth century. Formal portraits taken in the studio include town leaders Augustus Lotterhos, "The Father of Crystal Springs," and Bryant Wesley Matthis, "The Cabbage King," as well as pets and people of various ages and races. One of the earliest prints documents a Flag Day Parade in Crystal Springs in 1901. Some of the later snapshots include images of Franklin D. Roosevelt speaking in Tupelo, Mississippi, in 1934, and scenes from the son's studies at Mississippi State College in the late 1930s and 1940s.
Hargrove (Ralph) Photograph Collection
Ralph Hargrove began work as official photographer for the Jackson, Mississippi, Police Department in 1942. His collection documents police activities from 1927 until 1984, and his crime-scene photographs were crucial evidence in the 1994 conviction of Byron de la Beckwith for the murder of Medgar Evers.

MDAH has marked the fortieth anniversary of the storm with the creation of the Hurricane Camille Photograph Collection, seventy-three digitized photographs of the immediate aftermath of the hurricane, including images of damaged houses, churches, and commercial properties, as well as personnel from Keesler Air Force base in Biloxi contributing to the clean-up and recovery efforts.
Hurricane Katrina Photographs, PI/2005.0024
Hurricane Katrina wreaked havoc on the Mississippi Gulf Coast on August 29, 2005. Having grown up in Moss Point, a coastal town in the path of the storm, MDAH Graphic Records Curator Jeff Rogers found himself in demand as a guide for disaster recovery and assessment teams and national and regional archivists. The Hurricane Katrina Photographs document his first-hand observations of the destruction and recovery of several Mississippi communities.

Speak Now was an audio interview project undertaken in May and June 2011 by MDAH in conjunction with Mississippi Freedom 50th, a week-long series of events in Jackson to honor the Freedom Riders and educate the public about the importance of this episode in the nation's history. Twenty-eight individuals were recorded reminiscing about their own experiences during an era of cultural, political, and social change.
Amateur photographers and brothers Robert Livingston Stewart and William Percy Stewart documented their family and neighbors in Natchez, Mississippi, around 1890-1905. The collection includes several family portraits at their parents' residence, Myrtle Bank, as well as images of other significant houses in the region, vacations at Cooper's Wells and Atlantic City resorts, and dedication ceremonies, winter storms, floods, steamboats and river scenes.
Tax Rolls (Mississippi), 1818-1902
These records contain details of the ownership of land and personal property by Mississippians and the assessment of taxes thereon. The rolls, submitted by county tax assessors to the state's Auditor of Public Accounts, vary in content and condition and may contain information on county residents missed by decennial federal censuses.
The Record of Bolivar County in the World War, 1917-1919
This scrapbook was compiled by the Mississippi Delta Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution in Bolivar County to document county contributions to the war effort during World War I. Containing a roster of black and white soldiers from Bolivar County, photographs, news clippings, and reports from war organizations in Bolivar County, the scrapbook primarily documents home front activities but does incorporate some material from soldiers overseas.
The Writer in America - Eudora Welty
In 1974-5 filmmaker Richard O. Moore produced a documentary about Jackson, Mississippi, author Eudora Welty, which aired on WNET as part of The Writer in America series. Six reels of production video, as well as a copy of the final documentary, were donated to MDAH with funds for digitization by the National Endowment for the Arts in 2006. Welty is shown reading from works including "A Worn Path," "Why I Live at the P.O.," "Keela, the Outcast Maiden," "Petrified Man," "Powerhouse," "The Wanderers," and Losing Battles, and in action shots in her house, garden, and car.
William Henry Turcotte of Jackson, Mississippi, served in the 322nd Squadron, 91st Bomb Group, United States Army Air Corps, from July through October 1943. On October 9, 1943, he was captured during a bombing mission over Poland and Germany. Turcotte documented his experiences as a prisoner in this diary. It contains drawings and descriptions of day-to-day life of the prisoners, memorabilia, and clippings from German newspapers.
Vicksburg National Military Park Photographs
Vicksburg National Military Park was established in 1899 to preserve the site of the siege and defense of the city and to commemorate the campaign that culminated in the Confederate Army's surrender on July 4, 1863. The photographs in this collection, most taken between 1899 and 1923 and formerly housed in the files of early park commissioner William T. Rigby, depict the layout and creation of the park and the design and construction of its monuments and memorials.
Witbeck, C. W., Photograph Collection
Campbell William Witbeck (1916-1972), professionally known as C. W. Witbeck, is most often recognized for his extensive collection of railroad photographs. Witbeck came to Jackson, Mississippi in 1938 to work for the Works Progress Administration (WPA). He opened the Witbeck Photo Service in Brookhaven, Mississippi in 1948, and in 1955 relocated his studio to Hammond, Louisiana. The 333 black-and-white photographs dating from 1911 through 1955 show views of places and people in Brookhaven, Gulfport, Jackson and Vicksburg, Mississippi. The collection also contains views of Monticello, Meadville and Crystal Springs, Mississippi. The earliest print, from 1911, is of McGrath's Baseball Team in Brookhaven, Mississippi. There are multiple photographs of Governor Hugh White's 1951 inauguration, daily activities at the United States Naval Training School in Gulfport, Senator Pat Harrison's 1941 funeral, and African-American Little Leaguers in Brookhaven.
World War I Statement of Service Cards and Indices (Mississippi)
Congress passed a law in 1919 that authorized the Secretaries of War and the Navy to prepare and provide each state with statement of service cards for all service members from that state mustered during World War I. The cards of service members from Mississippi were transferred to MDAH by the state's Veterans Affairs Board in 1997 and are available here along with indices listing name, race, rank and other details.
Worsham (Clifford G.) Photograph Album
Named after a Chickasaw Indian Chief, Tishomingo State Park sits just off the Natchez Trace Parkway in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in Tishomingo County, Mississippi. The park was developed with Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) labor from 1935 to the early 1940s. Clifford Green Worsham, senior engineering foreman for 1939-40 projects, collected this album of photographs documenting the innovative methods CCC workers employed to construct a dam, swimming pool, baseball field, parking lot, and swinging bridge within a limited budget, as well as camp visitors and workers relaxing at the lodge and exploring the park.

Featured Foods
Go Eat Lunch
The best Arby's lunch money can buy.
ROAST BEEF CLASSICLess InfoThis is the sandwich that put roast beef on the map. Our classic roast beef is thinly sliced and piled on a toasted sesame seed bun. Try it with our delicious Arby's Sauce®, or for an extra kick go with the zesty Horsey Sauce®.
TURKEY & SWISSLess InfoOven-roasted turkey, ripe tomatoes, lettuce, thinly sliced red onions, Swiss cheese, mayo and spicy brown honey mustard. Together they make the Roast Turkey & Swiss sandwich, the sandwich roast turkey was made to go on.
ReubenLess InfoMarbled rye bread filled with freshly sliced corned beef, melty Swiss Cheese, tangy sauerkraut and creamy Thousand Island dressing. This is a reuben sandwich inspired by the New York standard.
Greek GyroLess InfoYou don't need to go to Greece to enjoy a Greek Gyro. You just need to like flame-seared, knife carved gyro meat, with crispy vegetables, creamy tzatziki sauce, and warm pita bread. You do need to be able to get to Arby's. Apparently, you can order a cab on your smartphone now, so that's a solid option.
Grab a Snack
Basically a second lunch.
BUFFALO CHICKEN SLIDERLess InfoA crispy chicken tender dipped in spicy buffalo sauce and topped with Parmesan Peppercorn Ranch. For when you want to step things up, but just a little bit, because it's a slider.
SMALL CURLY FRIESLess InfoPotatoes. The meats of the field. Sliced up curly and fried to perfection. Snack-size curly fries are delicious on their own and even better with one of our famous sauces.
Ultimate Chocolate ShakeLess InfoThe indulgent Ultimate Chocolate Shake is made with real, premium Ghirardelli chocolate and drizzled with even more real, premium Ghirardelli chocolate. What we're saying is Arby's keeps it real. And premium.
ROAST BEEF 'N CHEESE SLIDERLess InfoThe thinly sliced roast beef and melted cheese you love on a slider-sized bun, for when you want a mini-me of the classic.
Dinner Time
Just like eating dinner at home, but with strangers.
HALF POUND FRENCH DIP N SWISSLess InfoThis is the biggest Half Pound French Dip & Swiss Arby's has on the menu, featuring a half pound of our signature tender roast beef. And a fun side of au jus for maximum Frenchness.
ROAST BEEF GYROLess InfoNothing says "I am an adventurous eater and interesting person" like eating a gyro at Arby's. Our classic thinly sliced roast beef is topped with lettuce, onions and tomatoes, cool creamy tzatziki sauce, and authentic Greek seasonings all hugged by a warm pita.
MOZZARELLA STICKSLess InfoStretchy, cheesy, melty mozzarella that's battered and fried. Served with a marinara sauce for dipping.
Loaded ItalianLess InfoWe took the best of the Italian meats – pit-smoked ham, salami, and pepperoni, sliced them up thin, then stacked them higher than feasibly possible with melted Swiss. But we didn't stop there. We piled banana peppers, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on there too, and drizzled it all with a red wine vinaigrette, topped with garlic aioli, all on a toasted Italian roll.
Signature Sandwiches

SMOKEHOUSE BRISKETLess InfoWe set out to make a sandwich with layers of smoky flavor, and this is the result. We smoke our brisket for at least 13 hours in a pit smoker in Texas. We top that with smoked gouda, crispy onions, mayo and BBQ sauce and serve it all on an artisan-style roll.
LOADED ITALIANLess InfoYou might want to sit down. This could take a while. We took the best of the Italian meats – pit-smoked ham, salami, and pepperoni, sliced them up thin, then stacked them higher than feasibly possible with melted Provolone cheese.

text: Thursday, October 25, 2012 Clinical Practice Guidelines Not Meeting IOM Standards An analysis of clinical practice guidelines archived on the National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC) website as of June 2011 demonstrated poor compliance with Institute of Medicine (IOM) standards, with little if any improvement over the past 2 decades, say authors of an article published this month in Archives of Medicine. For the study, 2 reviewers independently screened 130 guidelines selected at random from NGC's website for compliance with 18 of 25 IOM standards. The overall median number of IOM standards satisfied (out of 18) was 8 (44.4%). Fewer than half of the guidelines surveyed met more than 50% of IOM standards. Barely a third of the guidelines produced by subspecialty societies satisfied more than 50% of the IOM standards surveyed. Information on conflicts of interest was given in fewer than half of the guidelines surveyed. Non-English literature, unpublished data, and/or abstracts were rarely considered in developing guidelines. Differences of opinion among committee members generally were not aired in guidelines. Benefits of recommendations were enumerated more often than potential harms. Guidelines published from 2006 through 2011 varied little with regard to average number of IOM standards satisfied. "Everybody everywhere is developing guidelines and there is no real quality control," lead author Philip A. Mackowiak, MD, told Reuters News. "There is no good oversight of who actually develops the guidelines or what criteria need to be met in order for them to be published." IOM's standards were not published until 2011. Mackowiak acknowledges that the experts who developed the guidelines reviewed by his team would not have been able to use IOM's standards. However, he added that similar standards have been published before and that they were basic enough that they should have been followed, says Reuters.

What goes tick-tock and costs more than $5 million? The Patek Philippe 1943 watch, which sold at a Christie's auction in early 2010.
If you or your clients find that price a bit steep, there's the 1969 stainless-steel Paul Newman-model Rolex Daytona chronograph. One of these timepieces sold for $1.1 million—a record for a Daytona—at a Christie's International auction in Geneva in early November of this year.
We're in the fall season of wristwatch and pocket watch sales at the major auction houses.
If you or your clients enjoy collecting watches or are looking for a new alternative asset, now's the time to peruse online catalogs and get a sense of trends in the market.
Heritage Auctions in Dallas is the third-largest auction house in the world. Its watch specialty division is relatively new, according to Jim Wolf, the firm's director of watches and timepieces.
Prior to 2008, watch sales were part of the jewelry department's auctions.
Watch sales at the auction house have grown substantially since the split, however, and Wolf estimates the division will sell $7 million to $8 million of timepieces this year.
On Thursday, Heritage Auctions will host its Signature Auction in New York. The auction's theme is "Time Pieces from a Distinguished Gentleman."
"There's an excess of 500 lots that will be auctioned, and [the event] features a gentleman's collection that is pretty astounding in terms of the variety and the sheer quantity that he collected," said Wolf, in an interview with ThinkAdvisor. "There are over 200 Rolex watches in the sale, numerous high-end Audemars Piguet, Vacheron Constantin, Blancpain and Panerai–just a terrific variety of very fine names."
Classic Collections
Headlines focus on the market's high end, in which watches sell for $500,000 and up.
Realistically, of course, most collectors can't afford such prices. But an appealing feature of the watch market is that it's possible to build a valuable collection without spending a fortune.
The Heritage's Nov. 21 auction lists numerous watches under $10,000, for example.
Wolf reports that some of the strongest sellers in the current market include the major brands (Rolex, Patek Philippe, etc.) made between 1995 and 2005.
The reason? Manufacturers have discontinued many of the models from that period. "When they come up for auction in good condition, they get a lot of attention, because they're already being looked at as future investments –even though they're not that old," he explained. They're "still old enough that they're starting to appreciate in the fair market arena and people take note of that."
Vintage watches, such as those made from 1950 to 1975, are selling like hotcakes.
Wolf calls this period "the golden age of wristwatches" and cites some of the rare Rolex sport watches from that era as being strong sellers.
Vintage pocket watches made between 1880 and 1910, including those with "complications" are also in demand. Complications are functions added to the watch: date, dual time zones, moon phases, etc.
Those timepieces attract a different set of collectors than wristwatches, and their collectors tend to bid aggressively, says Wolf.
Not all segments of the collectibles market are showing strength, though.
Prices for American pocket watches, for instance, are soft right now, Wolf maintains. Americans aren't buying them and international demand has fallen off, as well. "There are very fine, some very rare examples, but they're very soft at this point," he said.
The usual caveats to collecting high-priced objects apply to watches, of course.
As in any collectible field, knowledge and patience is the key to earning a profit.
"To think that you're going to buy a watch and make a handsome profit five years later really is not going to happen," Wolf shared.
"In very, very rare cases it could happen. But if you're buying it and you're buying it for a 20-30 year period and you're enjoying it while you're doing it, it can be very gratifying and financially it can be very profitable," he stressed.

|Project HAB Tracker Station
|In progress
|User:Costyn_van_Dongen, Maxell, Bertrik_Sikken
|Last Update
Project page for the high altitude balloon tracking/listening station we are setting up in the space.
Acquired hardware
- "ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM" dongle (RTL2838U, Fitipower FC0013 tuner)
- VK5QI HABamp
- Raspberry Pi (+ power supply)
- Test payload, RFM22b sending RTTY strings on 434.250MHz. Code here: https://github.com/costyn/rfmtest/blob/master/rfmtest.pde
- Antenna: Diamond X-50N
- Enclosure to keep everything together and make it draw less attention.
- rtl_tcp on RasPi over the network --> works! (1024000 samples/second seems to work (make sure to be on a wired connection))
- VNC performance with gqrx and dl-fldigi --> usable with JPEG compression and 8 bits of color (why not SPICE? http://www.spice-space.org/)
- Piece of aluminum pipe with a inside diameter of 29mm
- Mastklemmen to secure the pip on the zonnecollector
- Setting up a virtual machine with gqrx and dl-fldigi.
- If we are going to use SPICE we could setup a whole new machine. Or at least some sort of Fedora desktop virtual machine.
Shit just got real
<foobar> Maxell: had xander gevraagd over die plaatsing van een antenne, is geen probleem, mits netjes aangelegd/afgewerkt <foobar> je kan eventueel bij de zonne-collector naar binnen, daar is al een kabelgoot o.i.d. <foobar> komt uit in de wc's boven, kan dan door naar de meterkast, en vanaf daar zijn al ducts naar beneden/kelder
The old geyser's ventilation pipe is still penetrating the roof. Cat5e UTP and 230v at your fingertips. It looks like we don't need to put our setup on the roof anymore, just the antenna! The enclosure we are going to use doesn't need to battle mother nature anymore, easy replacement if something breaks, etc, etc.
<costyn> so guys, how do you ground your antenna's? what the consensus on lightning arrestors? <fsphil> there's so little lightning here I don't bother <costyn> hmm <costyn> we're going to place an antenna on the roof of our hackerspace, but it's not our building and we'll have to convince the owners that it's safe <SpeedEvil> you need to ground to a separate rod, with a straight cable to it <SpeedEvil> thick insulated cable <costyn> define thick? <gonzo_> you are only going to be able to disipate static with earthing. very little you can do against a direct strike <gonzo_> most lightening arrestors are really just spark gap's, that allow some high voltage coming down the centre of the coax, to jump to the outer. <gonzo_> your typical short colinear is possibly going to be DC short between the centre and braid anyway. (You can test with a DVM) <gonzo_> long colinears are not much of an advantage for HAB use, so I assume it will be a short one. So will not extend much above the existing roof profile? So will not be any greater risk of lightening than anything else <costyn> gonzo_: it'll be a short one yea, Diamond X-50 likely <costyn> gonzo_: and it'll raise some above the roof line, but it's not a high building (2 stories) and there's higher buildings and trees around <gonzo_> not siure of your mounting options, but if mounted to existing metalwork up there, like handrains etc, it will be earthed to the building anyway (or at least the owners metalwork) <costyn> it's basically a flat roof with some outlets for hvac <costyn> so no existing metal work. we're thinking of using/making a stand with metal weighted down with tiles <gonzo_> then an extra ground wire would prob be worth adding. If the building or roof is metal, then that could be an option to earth to, or as SpeedEvil said, an earthing rod <costyn> ok. thanks for the advice. will see what we can do. not even sure if we're going to get permission to route the coax on the outside of the building, so we'll see

One full year before MSGL acquired the property that is now our campus, the Calvary Baptist Church invited us to hold an open house for our families. These photos, from September 24, 1999, show lots of familiar faces and a campus without ramps, fences, or the 10 inches of snow that is on the ground today.
I can't bear to throw away a good opportunity for a photo comparison, but we don't have a current photo taken from the same perspective. Here are two beautiful photos that offer an idea of what this view looks like today.
I hope you were able to enjoy seeing some green grass and leaves on the trees. And I promise that Spring will come exactly when it's supposed to. Until then, thanks for reading and have your best possible Wednesday!

Stanczyk is still trying to puzzle out these Cleveland, Ohio ELIJASZ. So I am hoping either a Budka or an Elijasz (aka ELIASZ) will see today's blog and respond via an email.
Today's image is from Ancestry.com on a dangling leaf in my tree. On the 22nd-September-1884, one Father Kolaszewski of Cleveland (Cuyahoga County, Ohio) recorded a marriage between Elizabeth Elijasz and Paul Budka. That is pretty much it for useful genealogical info on the image (see above).
If you have access to ancestry it is here .
Many of these Elijasz came from Pacanów (Russian-Poland partition). Some Cleveland Elijasz also came from across the Vistula (Wisła) River (rzeka) in the Austrian-Poland partition. I am hoping a Cleveland genealogist researching Elijasz or Budka who can look-up a few things for me:
- What Catholic Church did Father Kolaszewski represent in 1884?
- Can someone get access to Cleveland Catholic diocesan records for September 1884 and get a copy of the church record of this marriage?
- I am seeking the parents' names of Elizabeth (possibly Elzbieta) Elijasz and where she was born (Pacanów, Poland or some other village), and her birth date.
My thanks for reading today's blog (plea). If all you can answer is just the first question, that is still VERY helpful. So please do not feel you need to answer all of the questions.

The Insured Retirement Institute says 40% of same-sex couples are motivated to make financial plans and 86% say they need help with some aspect of financial planning, according to a report the group published Tuesday — a real opportunity for financial advisors, experts say.
This research comes on the heels of a UBS study released last week that found lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) investors are both more optimistic than other investors about the U.S. economy and their personal financial situation, though they also are more concerned about financial matters, including their ability to pay for long-term care, and worry about finding LGBT-friendly long-term care facilities.
More significant, though, is the area where advisors could stand to improve their relations with LGBT clients and prospects: 77% of the roughly 500 high-net-worth LGBT investors surveyed by UBS say they are satisfied with their advisors, but only 57% say their advisors are focused on LGBT clients and understand the financial challenges of same-sex couples.
"If you're a financial advisor, you have to make sure you really understand the challenges faced by LGBT clients," said Emily Pachuta, head of Investor Insights for UBS Wealth Management Americas, in an interview with ThinkAdvisor. "These investors do not expect advisors to be in the community but do expect them to understand the financial challenges of the community and how to solve them."
The Same, But Different
"Those who identify themselves as part of the LGBT community want to be treated like any other client or couple," said Laura Steckler, CFP, head of the Steckler Wealth Management Group in Coral Gables, Fla., and they anticipate a "high level of expertise."
"Part of that expectation is having a seasoned advisor who can address their unique needs," since advisors have to tailor plans for clients and that includes understanding their particular family dynamics, explained the Raymond James (RJF) advisor, who says her practice include a "good number" of LGBT clients.
More than 30% of LGBT investors are concerned about their ability to pay for health care and support as they age versus 25% of other investors, the UBS research found. Plus, four of the top five financial concerns for LGBT investors were unique to their group: being able to find LGBT-friendly care facilities (31%), marriage equality (29%), having the right to make health care decisions for spouses/partners (29%), and ensuring assets passed to their spouse/partner at death (25%).
"It's very important for advisors to really understand that LGBT investors have the same concerns as other investors," explained Pachuta. "They also feel somewhat more strongly about certain financial issues and have additional concerns, which require financial planning, advice and informed conversations."
Industry Focus
The financial services industry, known for its conservative culture, has made great strides in improving its image within the LGBT community, which is advantageous for advisors, says Todd Sears, founder of Out on the Street, an LGBT leadership and networking group.
"For number reasons, including the financial crisis, the industry has changed dramatically and done lots of reflection," said Sears in an interview. "It's been among the most visible industries, if not the most visible, promoting these civil rights.
He points out that 14 of Out on the Street's 19 members signed a legal letter of support (or amicus brief) for the overturning of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). They have "recognized the importance of business opportunities and how Wall Street can lead as a top employer" within the LGBT community, Sears said.
Recently, Sears said, Credit Suisse launched an LGBT Equality Portfolio, so investors can share their assets with companies that have a demonstrated track record of supporting LGBT employees.
While the industry, like others, still has a way to go, its activities on behalf of the LGBT community are unprecedented.
