January 22, 2013 WIC Update
SUBJECT 1: Breast Pump Report
SUBJECT 2: WIC Coordinator E-Learning Modules
SUBJECT 3: Microcuvettes and Analyzers - Response Requested
JOB OPPORTUNITY: Nutritionist - City of St. Joseph Health Department
JOB OPPORTUNITY: Dietitian/Nutritionist - Truman Medical Centers, Kansas City
Breast Pump Report: In Crystal Reports, the Breast Pump Detail Report has been revised and is now titled the Breast Pump Inventory report. This report now lists a complete inventory of all breast pumps for each local WIC provider. Participant information on who the pump is issued to is still included. Another feature of the report is that you can now search by breast pump number to pull information on a specific breast pump. In order to incorporate this new feature, changes had to be made on how to create the report. Please remember the following:
- When creating a report listing a complete inventory by Agency Number please select "Disregard Parameter" on the drop down box at the bottom of the screen under "Enter Breast Pump Number".
- When creating a report by Breast Pump Number please select "Disregard Parameter" on the drop down boxes at the top of the screen under both "Start of Range" and "End of Range".
- When creating a report by either Agency Number or by Breast Pump Number, if "Disregard Parameter" is not selected for the other drop down box, an error message will be displayed when trying to create this report.
If you have any questions or problems in creating this report please contact the MOWINS Help Desk at 800-554-2544 or if you have other breast pump questions, please contact Kathy Mertzlufft by email at email@example.com or by phone at 573-526-4792.
WIC Coordinator E-Learning Modules: Six modules of the WIC Coordinator Training have been published on the LWP Training Site. The modules available are:
- Introduction

These modules can be viewed by staff at any time, but must be completed prior to on-site WIC Coordinator Training. Additional modules are being developed and will be posted on this site within the next several months.
If you have any questions regarding the WIC Coordinator e-Learning training modules, or the on-site WIC Coordinator training, please contact Debby Hanlon at email@example.com or by calling 573-751-6196.
Microcuvettes and Analyzers-Response Requested: It is time to order microcuvettes by completing the survey. Please follow the instructions below to assure your agency receives your supply of microcuvettes and/or analyzer.

A lot of really good restaurants next to the hotel. ( Sala bua & Lo Spunito could really be recommended!)

The room was good and spacious. However, the bathroom had a bad drain smell. Looks like a special rate was offered for the ground floor rooms because of this. One of the reception staff was not helpful. Not sufficient parking space for cars provided outside the hotel. On the plus side, the restaurant has an excellent location just overlooking the beach with good food and prompt service. I would stay at this hotel again, but not in the same room.

The 2 ladies were very friendly & smiling all the time & the driver was very courteous. Journey from Airport to Hotel was very smooth & upon arriving at the Hotel, we had our respective rooms within a few minutes. Staff very friendly and polite. Krabi is surely a very nice place to visit, food great & value for money. People friendly and always smiling. Land of Smiles is very apt.

Microsoft patch problems persist: bad release sequences, CRM blocks and more
We're sitting at PT+2 — two days after Patch Tuesday — and the problems continue to roll in. Here are the latest mug shots in a rapidly devolving rogue's gallery.
If you've been following along, you know about the initial problems I reported on Tuesday — the Word zero-day, TPM patches that don't patch, known and acknowledged bugs in Windows patches. You saw the late bloomers I reported on Wednesday — delayed, failed and rolled back Windows patches, a non-existent Flash update, confusingly no .NET security patches, an incorrect description of the CVE-2017-11776 fix, and more TPM follies.

Thelma "Gladys" Sharp, 93, of Chatsworth, will be spending the New Year in heaven with her beloved husband. She passed away at 11:25 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 30, 2012, at OSF Saint James-John W. Albrecht Medical Center in Pontiac.
Her funeral will be at 11 a.m. Friday at Chatsworth United Methodist Church, with Rev. Ivy Silas officiating.
Burial will follow the service at Brenton Township Cemetery in rural Piper City.
Friends may call two hours prior to the service on Friday at the church.
Calvert & Martin Funeral Home in Chatsworth has charge of arrangements.
Gladys was born to Andrew and Emily Isabel Ford on Feb. 21, 1919, in Chatsworth. She married the love of her life, Carl Sharp, on Aug. 13, 1938. Together they spent the next 73 years showing the world what "happily ever after" really means.
Gladys spent her entire life surrounded by people who loved her. She is survived by her three sons, Gene Sharp, Chatsworth, Don (Eleanor) Sharp, Mt. Pulaski, and Rick Sharp and Dana Spies of Champaign; eight grandchildren; 20 great-grandchildren; several nieces and nephews; and siblings Velma and Dorothy and her brother, Clinton.
She was also preceded in death by her parents, her brother, Floyd, her sister, Hazel, and her grandson, Eric Carl.
Gladys was a very busy farmwife assisting with farm duties and raising three boys. For a time before Don was born, they also raised a nephew, Alan. She had a large garden and no girls, so the responsibility primarily fell on her shoulders. She canned, froze and preserved vast amounts of food each year. She also had the responsibility for 1,000 chickens. Many a family member enjoyed fried chicken raised on this farm.
In her spare time, she enjoyed paint by number kits, crocheting afghans, and embroidering quilt squares for quilts jointly made by herself and sisters-in-law, Mildred, Jessie and Madie. She also enjoyed bowling.
In 1993 Gladys and Carl retired from farming and moved to town. During retirement you would find her daily working on her crossword puzzles and jigsaw puzzles, which adorned many of the walls in her home.
Memorials may be made to the Chatsworth United Methodist Church.
Condolences may be left to the family at calvertmartinmemorial.com.

The bash Vanity Fair cohosted with Dior on Monday night for the magazine's Hollywood Issue provided an opportunity for revelry that's been largely missing from the writers' strike-clouded run-up to the Academy Awards.
While not nearly as opulent as the magazine's legendary post-Oscar bash, which was scrapped due to the strike, the dinner — planned just six weeks in advance — was an elegant, low-key affair held at BondSt restaurant in the recently opened Thompson Hotel in Beverly Hills. And the mood was festive, with America Ferrera, Ginnifer Goodwin and Zoe Saldana (three of the Dior-dressed starlets on the inside of the issue's foldout cover) mingling and chatting with other guests. Unfortunately those guests didn't include the most prominent quartet of cover girls — Emily Blunt, Amy Adams, Jessica Biel and Anne Hathaway.
"I may be thin, but I have a big booty," said Saldana. "Dior is made to fit every woman's shape, and the dresses fit beautifully. True fashion is not just about expensive clothes and names, it has to be more than that, a reflection of culture."
Speaking of culture, "It's always a little awkward when someone says, 'Let's toast the Bush tragedy,'" said Jacob Weisberg the next night at a party Arianna Huffington threw for him in her Los Angeles home. But since that's the title of his new book, and since he's a pretty connected guy, that was the thing being feted.
Needless to say, lots of people were discussing the election.
That morning, New York Times columnist David Brooks had written about "Obama Fatigue," a disorder supposedly shared by many of the Illinois senator's supporters, who may not be sure just what their candidate actually stands for. "I'm a little worried about that," admitted Slate's Mickey Kaus of Obama. "And I'm worried about the wife."
But Weisberg, who has interviewed the presidential hopeful, said he is experiencing nothing of the sort. "I feel the opposite way. When he speaks it's like whale mating calls."
Adrian Grenier wasn't about to give Obama an official endorsement, but he definitely seemed to be leaning his way. Asked what he was wearing, the young actor laughed and said, "Obama shorts and Obama underwear."

Leaders in monolith chromatography
DEAE (diethylamine) is a weak anion exchanger which selectively binds biomolecules with predominant negative charge over a working pH range of 3-9. It is suitable for a wide range of applications particularly for purification and concentration of viruses, VLPs and large proteins in capture steps of the DSP. It has a very high pDNA binding capacity for pDNA and is a chemistry of choice for any kind of pDNA purification. Compared to the QA chemistry it has a different selecitivity for a certain type of molecule.
Affinity chromatography is based on the biospecific interaction between a biomolecule (commonly antibody) and its native or synthetic ligand. The effective ligands are immobilized on CIM® monoliths and associate with your antibodies in a highly specific and reversible manner. Association takes place at physiologic pH, while dissociation is most commonly effected by a pH shift. The strength of interaction strongly depends on the type of ligand and antibody. Affinity chromatography has become state of the art in antibody purification. We provide a selection of affinity monolithic columns for efficient purification of IgG and IgM.
Ion exchange chromatography (IEC) is based on electrostatic interaction between a charged molecule and an oppositely charged stationary phase. Depending on the type of charge, one discriminates between anion (AEC) and cation exchange chromatography (CEC). Your molecule binds at low salt concentration, while desorption is effected by increasing salt concentration. Ion exchange ligands are classified as either strong or weak, depending on their charge as a function of pH. IEC is a versatile and extensively used tool in downstream processing, and we contribute with a variety of weak and strong AEC and CEC monolithic columns.
Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) capitalizes the interaction between non-polar molecules and a hydrophobic stationary phase. Hydrophobic patches of your molecule interact with mildly hydrophobic ligands. The retention of biomolecules is promoted by salt; therefore, the mobile phase contains high salt concentration. Desorption in return is effected by decreasing salt concentration. Due to its exceptional separation power and the maintenance of biologic activity despite hydrophobic conditions, HIC became an integrated part of chromatographic solutions. We offer a selection of three different HIC monolithic columns.
Any individual application employing a biospecific, non-commercial ligand-protein or ligand-peptide interaction requests a tailor-made solution. By coupling your specific ligand to an activated CIM® monolithic surface via a hydrolytically stable covalent linkage, you will obtain your custom made affinity column. The choice of coupling method depends on the ligand to be immobilized; i.e., the chemistry of its active groups, its pH and temperature stability, reactivity, etc. We support your individual needs by providing different activated CIM® monolithic columns.

Antiques and Collectibles Appraisal
So, you've inherited a wonderful "what's-it" from your Great Aunt So and So. Or perhaps you bought a terrific "thing-a-ma-jig" at a garage sale. But what is it, and more importantly, what is it worth? Read on, and find the way to begin your research in the following pathfinder.
An antique is an old collectible item. It is collected or desirable because of its age, rarity, condition, utility, or other unique features. Usually it is an object that represents a previous era in human society. Antiques are usually objects which show some degree of craftsmanship, or a certain attention to design such as a piece of furniture or an early automobile.
A collectible typically describes a manufactured item designed for people to collect. In this respect, they are distinguishable from other subjects of collections, which may also include natural objects (e.g., butterflies) and objects manufactured for purposes other than collecting (e.g., stamps). Some objects designed for other purposes, such as toys, become so popular among collectors that they are later marketed specifically to that audience.
Internet Resources
A good place to start is the About.com web pages for Antiques and Collectibles. These pages offer helpful information about what items are popular in the world of antiques and collectibles.

Many people who "antique" or collect certain items specialize--meaning they have one or two preferred areas which in they collect valuables. These subject areas are very extensive, ranging from "Beanie Babies" to antique "Zebra Skins!" The websites below represent excellent resources for an overview of information about antiques and collectibles.

Print Resources
There are so many books about antiques and collectibles that you could start a collection of them. Once you find your particular collecting niche, you'll want to get more specific books. Here's a hint to help keep your costs down - look in antique stores for older editions. The pictures are still relevant and useful for identification, and the older books are a fraction of the price of newer editions. If you don't see any at your local antique store, ask the owner - almost all of them have a stack of these books somewhere. Also, check for older publications and newsletters. Although the prices given for items will be outdated, the information is still good.
More print resources can be found in your library under these call numbers from the Dewey Decimal Classifications:
Antiques: 745.1
*For more in-depth books on your particular item, you will need to find its classification. Ask your librarian for help.
The Library of Congress Subject Heading under which you would find books on antiques and collectibles is:
Again, for specific information about an individual item, you may need to ask your librarian to assist you.

The award goes to individuals under 45 who have demonstrated outstanding service to the totality of B'nai B'rith and have worked to achieve the goals of the B'nai B'rith Young Leadership program.
The honor has proven a good measure of future achievement in B'nai B'rith, as many presidents and top organizational leaders have won the Label A. Katz award.
Weinstein has volunteered with B'nai B'rith for the past 10 years. He was a founding member and the first president of the Dayan Lodge, the first new Chilean lodge formed in 20 years. Under his watch, the lodge has seen a healthy growth in membership.
In 2005, Weinstein broadened his spectrum of work from the Dayan Lodge to District 27, a region that includes Chile and Bolivia, eventually joining the district's Executive Committee in 2007. His rise in leadership continued when he became the second deputy president of the district in 2009, as well as the head of the Institutional Development Committee, where he oversaw the creation of three new lodges that successfully brought in young members.
Continuing his ascension within the organization, Weinstein will be installed as the president of District 27 in November.
In February 2010, Weinstein was instrumental in coordinating his district's disaster relief efforts after an 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of central Chile, causing damage in Santiago and Maule, Chile.
Weinstein resides in Santiago with his wife, Deborah, and their five children.
Other winners of the 2012 Label A. Katz award are: Ralph Attie of Panama; Edwige Ouaknine of Lev, France; Rebecca Saltzman of Denver; Jorge Silberberg of Montevideo, Uruguay; and Stephen Stern of Annapolis, Md.

The nation's housing: Routes to a lower down payment
WASHINGTON -- It's a crucial question for many first-time and moderate-income buyers in rebounding markets across the country: Where do we find the lowest down payment, lowest monthly cost loans? The answers are changing.
True zero-down alternatives are rare and tend to be tightly restricted. If you're a veteran or active military, a VA-guaranteed home loan might be ideal since it requires no down payment. The same is true for certain rural housing loans administered by the Department of Agriculture, but purchases must be in designated areas outside large population centers. Members of the Navy Federal and NASA federal credit unions can qualify for zero down financing, but those programs are closed to everybody else. Some state housing finance agency programs may also be helpful, but they often come with income limits and other requirements.
For most shoppers looking for mini-down payments, there are much larger, less restrictive sources. The Federal Housing Administration is probably the traditional favorite since it requires just 3.5 percent down. But beware: In the wake of a series of insurance premium increases and a highly controversial move to make premiums non-cancellable for the life of the loan for most new borrowers, FHA no longer rules the low-cost roost.
Fannie Mae, the giant federal mortgage investor, may now do better. And for some applicants, so might Freddie Mac, Fannie's smaller competitor. Consider this scenario prepared by George Souto, a loan officer with McCue Mortgage in New Britain, Conn., who has long specialized in putting first-time buyers into houses using FHA loans. But lately, says Souto, "the numbers just don't work as well." He's directing clients instead into Fannie Mae's 3 percent minimum down payment "My Community Mortgage" program.
Here's the head-to-head: Say you want to buy a $180,000 house but you don't have much cash for a down payment. If you go with a 3.5 percent FHA loan, you would need to come up with $6,300. If you select Fannie's 3 percent loan, it's just $5,400.
The rate on the FHA loan with zero points will be lower -- 4.25 percent in Souto's hypothetical -- than 4.625 percent for Fannie. (A point is 1 percent of the loan amount.) But FHA's new mortgage insurance premium charges spoil the rate advantage: $195.41 monthly for FHA versus $123.68 for Fannie's plan using private mortgage insurance. On a monthly basis, FHA costs $43.30 more -- a $1,064.67 payment compared with $1,021.37 -- including principal, interest and insurance.
More important for buyers who plan to hold on to their low mortgage interest rates for years, Fannie's insurance charges disappear when the principal balance on the loan reaches 78 percent of the purchase price of the home -- knocking $123.68 off the monthly mortgage bill. FHA's insurance fees of $195.41 a month, by contrast, are a drag until you pay off the loan. FHA previously allowed cancellation, but that changed June 3, when the agency revoked the privilege for most new borrowers.
There are some noteworthy restrictions to the Fannie program that might stand in the way of some buyers, however. There are income limits pegged to median incomes in the metropolitan area where the house is located, although applicants in higher-cost markets such as in California, metropolitan Washington, D.C., Seattle, Vancouver-Portland, Boston and New York among others can qualify with incomes well above the median. Check with your loan officer about what ceiling may apply to you.
Fannie requires higher credit scores -- generally 680 FICO and up -- whereas FHA is more generous, allowing 580 FICOs. But as a practical matter, many mortgage lenders won't do FHA loans for borrowers with FICO scores below 640. Fannie also insists that for first-time purchasers, at least one borrower must complete a financial education or counseling course. FHA has no such requirement.
FHA allows borrowers to use gift funds as part of their down payments, but the Fannie program requires the full down payment to come from the borrowers' own resources such as savings accounts.
Freddie Mac's "Home Possible" program, which is its low-down-payment competitor to both Fannie and FHA, may also be an attractive option for buyers who don't want to keep paying expensive FHA insurance premiums for long periods. It requires a 5 percent minimum down payment but allows all of it to come from gifts provided by family, friends, employers or other sources. There is no minimum cash contribution directly from the borrower -- which may resemble zero down but really isn't.

We work to advance equity and excellence on behalf of young people, especially those who have been marginalized, mistreated and neglected. This mission will be accomplished by educators, community members and academics working together to study, implement and continually assess educational systems, procedures and activities through the lens of socially just and educationally sound practices.
This website is intended to highlight the Duquesne University School of Education's social justice efforts and to facilitate the collaboration of educators. We will provide updated resources available for educators interested in educational leadership and social justice and model examples of educational leadership and social justice partnerships in practices.
Our Beliefs Guide Our Work and Collaborative Efforts
We believe that...
Socially just leadership is the fusion of the mind, heart and spirit in the moment of action.
Leaders impact the conditions of social justice and that the conditions of social justice impact the formation of the leader.
Educational research only has meaning when put into action to positively affect the lives of kids.
Educational leaders, when confronted with conditions of social injustice, must have the courage to risk personal comfort and safety to improve the lives of students.
Socially just leaders systematically and intentionally interrogate themselves to continuously improve and understand personal biases, assumptions and prejudices.
For more information please see the UCEA Center for Educational Leadership and Social Justice mission, vision, and identity statement along with our action imperative.

Pavlova (Pav) is a meringue cake that has a light and delicate crisp crust and a soft sweet marshmallow center. This lovely dessert is typically served with softly whipped cream and fresh fruit. There is a long standing debate about whether New Zealand or Australia invented this dessert, which has yet to be resolved. What we do know is that the name, Pavlova, was chosen in honor of the Russian ballerina, Anna Pavlova, who toured both New Zealand and Australia in 1926.I have always loved baked meringue, so the urge to make this finally hit home. Would you believe I've never made it before? This was my very first attempt. I carefully read the reviews on Ina Garten's version, and people were quite harsh. Many complained that the temperature was wrong, and that the meringue never baked. I read the directions a few times and decided to dive in and give this a go. As always, let me show you:
In the bowl of your electric mixer, with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until they hold soft peaks. Start adding the sugar, a tablespoon at a time, and continue to beat until the meringue holds very stiff peaks. TIP: You want your bowl and whisk beater to be very clean. I wipe the bowl with a paper towel and a little white wine vinegar. That way, I'm pretty much guaranteed that my egg whites will turn out just right.
Test to see if the sugar is fully dissolved by rubbing a little of the meringue between your thumb and index finger. The meringue should feel smooth, not gritty. If it feels gritty the sugar has not fully dissolved so keep beating until it feels smooth between your fingers...
Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes or until the outside is dry and takes on a very pale cream color. Turn the oven off, leave the door slightly ajar, and let the meringue cool completely in the oven. This step is very important! The parchment paper easily removes from the meringue-- don't forget to do that, too.
NOTE: This was my first attempt. I thought it was a little challenging to form "edges". The second time I made this, I ended up piping the meringue, which I found a bit easier.
Because there are gorgeous raspberries, in season, I made a raspberry coulis sauce. If you'd like to see a tutorial on how I make a coulis sauce, please click here.
(This is my second attempt. I was much happier with the shape)

if toxic Chinese drywall will destroy an air conditioning coil in a Florida home, every year, or so, what is it doing to the health of the homeowners, or the children, who live, or have lived in these homes
(PRWEB) February 13, 2012
The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center says, "Because we are talking about hydrogen sulfide contained in the imported toxic Chinese drywall, we fear in a decade or so, exotic cancers, exotic pulmonary issues, or exotic neurological disorders will start popping up in former, or current families, that have lived in toxic Chinese drywall homes. In a decade or so, we also believe the healthcare costs associated with long term exposure to toxic Chinese drywall will shoot up into the billions of dollars per year, in places like Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Southeast Texas, and Virginia. Because, President Obama, and various federal agencies have never showed up with a plan, to help these current, or former homeowners, and their families, we think the toxic Chinese drywall disaster in the US Southeast just gets more costly each year." According to a April 9th 2010 USA Today news article discussing proposed US Consumer Products Safety Commission remediation protocols, "The guidelines recommend that electrical wiring, outlets, circuit breakers, fire alarm systems, carbon monoxide alarms, fire sprinklers, gas pipes and drywall need to be removed." The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center says, "What part of this sounds good for a child's health, or the health of a homeowner, a renter of a toxic Chinese drywall home, or their family members? If you are a HMO, a hospital, an appliance maker, or an insurance company does this sound good for your future business, in Florida, or the US Gulf? We know we can replace the microwaves, refrigerators, air conditioning coils, and smoke alarms. How do we replace someone's child, who dies of cancer because they were exposed to toxic Chinese drywall off gassing hydrogen sulfide, in one of these homes, or condos?" http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.Com
Aside from the obvious healthcare costs, what are the other costs associated with toxic Chinese drywall?
- The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center says, "How do effected communities like Fort Myers, or Cape Coral, Florida, the North Shore of New Orleans, Conroe, Texas or other communities throughout Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Southeast Texas, or Virginia ever recover, from the toxic Chinese drywall disaster, if it is never addressed by the federal government? In many to most cases we have observed, most homeowners simply walk away from their toxic Chinese drywall, home, or condominium, it becomes a foreclosure, the bank, or Fannie Mae, then simply resell the home AS IS, no disclosure about the toxic Chinese drywall. As soon as the new homeowner becomes aware of the toxic Chinese drywall, the home becomes a foreclosure all over again, or the current homeowner rents the home out to a renter-with no disclosure. Why have a US EPA? After three plus years of knowing about the toxic Chinese drywall disaster the US EPA has yet to come up with a uniform remediation protocol for fixing a toxic Chinese drywall house, and there are no mandatory federal disclosure rules? How is this a win for anyone?"
- The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center says, "We guarantee the health effects related to toxic Chinese drywall off gassing hydrogen sulfide are going to be super bad for peoples health, including renters. Doubt us? Simply Google health effects to hydrogen sulfide. In the instance of renters, renting Gulf States homes, or condos, and not being told about the toxicity of the rental property, we fear a gigantic liability issue has been created for the landlord, and their homeowners insurance company. Once again, we think down the road, as severe health related issues become better defined with respect to toxic Chinese drywall, the liability to landlords, and their insurance companies, is going to be in the billions, and billions of dollars."
The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center says, "At some point someone has to take charge of the toxic Chinese drywall disaster, and the sooner the better. We are not going to back down as a passionate advocate for victims of toxic Chinese drywall, it is an election year, and we will take care of our own. The Obama Administration, the US Congress, and a multitude of federal agencies need to take this disaster seriously, and there must be a meaningful federal response, that includes remediation protocols, health studies related to long term exposure to toxic Chinese drywall, and mandatory disclosure to potential buyers, or renters of the presence of toxic Chinese drywall in a home, or condominium, in all effected states." http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.Com.

One of the ideas of RootsTech 2011 was that genealogy was a worldwide main stream activity, not some obscure hobby practiced by shuffleboard dropouts, but a viable and living intellectual and technical pursuit. Quoting from a recent news release from RootsTech sent out by FamilySearch's Paul Nauta:
"The scope of the RootsTech conference was unique. We wanted to try to fulfill a need to bring technology users (family history buffs and anyone interested in genealogy) and technology creators (developers, programmers, engineers) together in a unique, fun environment to collaborate and move the genealogy industry forward through technology," said Anne Roach, RootsTech conference chair. And bring them together it did.There were things that happened at RootsTech 2011 that preview how the genealogy world will function in the future. As Paul Nauta, RootsTech public relations chair, reports there were over 40 bloggers in attendance. "Between online articles, blog posts, and nonstop tweets, the online community was buzzing 24 hours a day during the conference and for weeks following—and amazingly, articles and tweets are still going strong," noted Nauta.
The inaugural conference, hosted by FamilySearch, was a runaway success. With over 3,000 in-person attendees and another 4,500 attending remotely over the Internet, it was arguably one of the largest genealogy-related conferences ever held in the country. In-person attendees hailed from 42 states and 15 countries. Some came from as far away as China, New Zealand, Australia, Namibia, and Israel.
The technological nature of the Conference was emphasized by the extensive community networking. Again quoting from the news release, "A highlight of the conference was the extensive community networking—community zone (exhibit hall), collaboration stations, and unconferencing sessions. These integrated features produced an open conference atmosphere that seemed to be ideal to introduce technology creators to genealogy technology users and to foster discussions, learning, collaboration, and future industry developments.
All these are big words and somewhat vague terms. What it really means is people found out that genealogy is living and breathing and that genealogists are really involved in high tech. Not just hardware, but all kinds of cutting edge activities.
To get a feel of what the Conference was all about, you can watch six of the main presentations on RootsTech.org. If you want to see how technology impacts genealogy and how genealogy impacts the technology, watch these presentations.
Personally, I came away from RootsTech with a million thoughts running through my head. Underlying all of the talk and meetings, was the fact that so much of the world's written and printed legacy is being digitized. The world is changing one thought and one digitized document at a time.
Thanks again to all those who worked on bringing us a great Conference and an event that helps to redefine genealogy and thereby will have a lasting effect on the world of ideas.

The totally solar powered Solar Impulse aircraft made its maiden international flight across Europe today, piloted by Andre Borschberg. Slowly but surely, the aircraft flew from western Switzerland and over France and Luxembourg, to an airport in Brussels, Belgium. The Solar Impulse was first tested last summer, with a successful flight circling the skies above Switzerland.
The 300 mile flight took the Impulse about 12 hours, traveling at about 25 miles per hour, at an altitude of just under 12,000 feet. The one seater aircraft is similar in size to a large plane, but weighs the same as a sedan automobile. The wings are covered with 12,000 solar cells which absorb the sun's energy, and in turn charge batteries that power the four propellers which are run by the 10-horsepower motors.
The Solar Impulse proved itself with last summer's test flight, holding its endurance for a 26 hour, 10 minute, 19 second flight over Switzerland, that was powered by the sun's rays! It has also flown numerous times between Geneva and Zurich, but last Friday's flight marked the first time it flew through crowded commercial airspace.
The plane plans to conquer transatlantic and round-the world flights in 2013 and 2014. The Solar Impulse team is excited about the possibilities, as these flights have proven that completely renewable-energy powered planes are not only possible, but a reality!
The Brussels airport will host an exhibition of the Solar Impulse, and details of green technology until May 29th, when the solar plane will jet to Paris to go on display at the Le Bourget air show.

You know what you want to spend on a bottle - so why shouldn't you be able to see ratings within price ranges? You can here. Wine focus is West Coast USA, Argentina, Chile, and soon Brazil. Also: interesting beers, spirits, musings, my booze and lifestyle magazine articles, dining and lodging recommendations in wine country, travel adventures, coffee, sushi, cigars, etc.
Posts tagged as:
There are hundreds of wines and beers rated here.
Please use the manual search box and/or the full "tags" list (both in the right hand column on this page) to find what you like.
Also, kindly check out my magazine articles, linked below, on this page.
Cheers and thank you very much for visiting!
Country of origin is listed first, then the name of the grape(s), the maker, wine name, additional geographic information, and finally the vintage year.
C = Color. Rarely noted unless unique for that wine.
N = Nose, aroma - how it smells.
T = Taste, mouthfeel, finish.
I = "Intangible". Subjective feel. Squishy impressions on how the wine was independent of anything objective.
Either the American scholastic A-F "grades" scale, or the standard numeric scale is used.
A+ or 98-100 = Incredible. Beautiful. Elegant. The stars have aligned.
A or 94-97 = Total quality on all fronts. Seriously memorable. The starting material must have been excellent, and the winemaker clearly took pride in her/his art.
A- or 90-93 = Brilliant. Special stuff indeed. Do what you can to try it, you will not be disappointed.
B+ or 87-89 = Very Good. Above average quality. Worth a try.
B or 84-86 = Good.
B- or 80-83 = Good, with some detracting notes.
C- to C+ = Fair. Likely unbalanced. Faults, but not terminal ones.
D and F = Avoid. I rarely even post on these, unless it was a media sample. I will also always try to obtain a second bottle (to guard against bottle variation) before putting a wine in this category.
I decant most tannin-rich red wines at least 20 minutes before tasting begins, usually an hour.
My ratings reflect my perceptions from, typically, multiple hours of smelling and sipping.
I try to taste at the same time of day, in the same glass, and without food to be as objective as possible.
Many wines I will vaccu-vin, refrigerate, and rate the next day to see how they hold up.
Finally, I taste and rate so many wines that a lot of the lesser wines fall to the back of my "to post" pile... accordingly, this site tends to focus on the best of the wines I rate each year (which, I assume is of higher importance to readers anyway).
Well, the pricing of wine is sadly dominated by marketing and fads. In short, a wine's price is not a highly reliable indicator of its quality.
Accordingly, many fantastic bargains exist.
The goal of this site is to help bring those gems to your glass!
Another way in which this site is different is that we only rate wines against other wines in their same price category.
In other words, you can use this site to find affordable gems, but you also can pick a price point and then look for the highest ratings within that monetary range.
Red Wine, White Wine, Beer, Scotch, Whisky, Whiskey, Bourbon, Rum, Rhum, Tequila, Mescal, Mezcal, Cachaca, Champagne, Sake, Grappa, Vodka, Cigars, Tobacco, Chocolate, Coffee, Cheese, Sushi, Travel, FlyFishing.
Favorite Wine Styles = Red Blends, Bordeaux (Claret), Meritage, Crisp Whites, Botrytis Infected, Late Harvest.
South American Focus = Red Blends, Carmenere, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Bonarda, and Torrontes.
Red Varietal Focus = Red Blends, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Malbec, Tannat, Pinot Noir, Charbono, Pinotage, Syrah, Shiraz, Zinfandel, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Maréchal Foch, Grenache, Merlot.
White Varietal Focus = White Blends, Late Harvest, Riesling, Gewurtzraminer, Muller-Thurgau, Torrontes, Semillon, Viognier, Muscat, Sauvignon Blanc, and Chardonnay.
Wine Region Focus = Argentina, Bordeaux, Brasil, Brazil, Casablanca Valley, California, Chile, Colchagua Valley, France, Germany, Lujan de Cuyo, Maipo, Maule Valley, Mendoza, Mexico, Napa, Oregon, Paso Robles, Patagonia, Rapel Valley, Rio Grande Do Sul, Sonoma, South Africa, Spain, Tupungato, Valle de Colchagua, Valle de Maule, Valle de Rapel, Vietnam, and Willamette Valley.

Once upon a time, the classic ladies leather belt wasn't much more than a practical device to keep trousers in place. Underestimated and shamefully disregarded, the leather belts lead a life in the shadow of other accessories. Thanks to the creativity and inventiveness of all the great designers we love, todays belts for women are anything but disregarded and basic. They can work wonders as statement pieces and It accessories in their own right, and help us create a completely new outfit out of nothing.
mytheresa.com has selected a beautiful range of fashion belts for women that stand out with extraordinary details, great materials and luxury appearances. Some, like an embroidered leather belt, are real statement pieces. Others, like black or brown leather belts, are a more subtle yet very ladylike way to create a luxury styling. Never forget about the body-shaping effect a waistbelt can have. Women's leather belts that remind us of a super-elegant corset form the most beautiful hourglass silhouette that you can dream of and even a small silver belt can create a curvier figure.
Did you know that you can develop an extra style effect if you try another way to knot your fashion belt? Why don't you form a straight and easy knot to simplify your look or create a loop to draw some extra attention to your waistbelt?

It feels so good to wear the fashion belts that make a statement and provide you with both confidence and a great look.

Wear it with a monochrome outfit and you will perfectly take the focus to your waistline, or use this gold belt to accentuate a colourful styling and add glam to your look. A sparkling silver belt or strong black belt can even go with an evening robe as celebrities like Kate Middleton or Rosie Huntington-Whiteley show us.
Oversized leather belts are a key piece. On the runway, designers combine them with almost everything and use them to add a special edge to their looks. Neon pink belts or magenta belts made of silk or wool not only stand out with their bright colour but also attract attention with their unusual materials.

SANTA CLARA — Kneeling on a stool in the locker room, 49ers safety Donte Whitner glances up at the laminated poster above his stall and, for a moment, he is wistful.
The poster depicts a photo of himself as a high-school athlete, along with football information pertinent at the time. Whitner, 27, pauses and ponders the significance of this tangible reminder of his childhood.
"We were young kids," he says, still gazing at the poster. "But what did you want to be at that moment? At the time when you took this picture?
"We all can look at this and we all understand what we wanted to be," he adds, before turning to face me.
"And it's where we are now."
The 49ers are one victory away from the Super Bowl, football's most celebrated game. A win over Atlanta in the NFC Championship game Sunday allows the players to advance to the game that has been a subject of fantasies since they were growing boys in high school, if not before.
Think 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh doesn't know that?
There are many ways to reach and warm the heart of a professional athlete, but few can be more effective than recalling the innocence and idealism of childhood. After a recent lunchtime conversation with several players who were reminiscing about their prep exploits, the coach last week requested the 49ers media relations staff to research recruiting files and compile information on each player.
The result was a poster above each locker stall when the 49ers returned last week to prepare for their divisional game against Green Bay.
In a flash, Harbaugh had taken his players, adults and mostly wealthy, back to a time when they were boys playing for free, perhaps dreaming of that faraway day when it might pay off. Maybe they'd be in the NFL, perhaps with an opportunity to play in the Super Bowl.
"I think there's a message behind it, to show you how hard you grind to (get from high school) to the NFL," defensive tackle Ricky Jean Francois says. "And (Harbaugh) wants you to grind the same way you did in high school."
The posters can be, depending on the individual, poignant or surprising or revealing. They also can be, as you will see in the case of Randy Moss, simultaneously impressive and hilarious.
Each poster displays the name and photo of the individual in a uniform from his days in high school or junior college. Accompanying each picture is such relevant information as star rating (zero through 5), national ranking, overall state ranking and overall position ranking — assuming there was a ranking at all.
The poster essentially whispers into a player's ear that he is living his dream and within days of a climactic moment.
"I tell people all the time, it wasn't just a dream for me because I dream in reality," linebacker Patrick Willis says. "And my reality as a kid was to be a professional ballplayer, whether it was baseball or basketball or football. And through God's grace, He allowed me to make it in football."
The posters also send another, more subtle message to anyone paying attention: There are expectations, and then there are results.
The posters indicate a broad range of talent in the eyes of scouts.
Quarterback Alex Smith and guard Mike Iupati, both two-star recruits, became first-round picks and immediate NFL starters.
Wide receiver/kick returner Ted Ginn Jr., a five-star recruit rated No. 2 in the nation, also was a first-round NFL draft pick but rarely participates on offense.
Willis was a three-star prep recruit who through advanced tutelage and dedicated training has become of the most decorated players in the NFL. He has been in the league six years and been voted to the Pro Bowl six times.
"Honestly, it just kind of proves it doesn't matter how many stars you have or what ranking you have at your position or any of that," Willis says. "When you look around this room, we're all here. So whether you're a 5-star or a 3-star or 1-star or a zero-star, it doesn't matter. We all got here, and that's all that matters."
Among the other five-star recruits, considered blue-chip by college scouts, are linebacker Ahmad Brooks, cornerback Chris Culliver, guard Alex Boone and Moss, who was listed as the nation's No. 1 recruit in 1994 out of DuPont High in Rand, W.Va.
The crude lettering taped by a teammate to Moss' poster insists the team's oldest position player left high school in 1202 B.C. Though there are more than 50 posters visible, that of the wide receiver who will turn 36 next month is, um, distinctive.
"I laughed at 'em, just seeing how we looked back then," said tight end Delanie Walker, a three-star recruit out of Mt. San Antonio community college. "Then going around and seeing how … Randy Moss has a black-and-white picture."
It's the only noncolor photo in the room.
Harbaugh, however, believes the photos generally had at least one thing in common. The youngsters, he thinks, looked eager and uncomplicated.
"As I looked through every single picture of every single guy, I was moved by the eyes," the coach says. "It's always in the eyes. They're cheerful and undefeated."
Whitner sees the idea as a wise ploy on the part of Harbaugh.
"He's always doing little things to motivate us," Whitner says, pointing to his poster. "You don't really have to explain it. You see it, and it's like, 'Oh, man, I remember this.' So you automatically tap back into why, at this moment, I wanted to be in the NFL.
"It's something to make you play a little harder on Sunday."

Best Redesign
A former porch now serves as cheery dining space off the living room of Bill Springer and Caroline McCabe Springer's Belmont home.
Caroline and her young son read together in the living room, where reupholstered and new pieces blend beautifully.
A leopard-print ottoman and Tibetan rug brighten the family room.
Melrose-based interior designer Ana Donohue had Caroline's grandmother's easy chairs reupholstered in a fabric with an Indian sensibility, chosen to reflect the couple's love of travel. For the sofa, also a hand-me-down, she picked a coordinating neutral with textural dots. On top she layered bright pillows trimmed in colors pulled from the oil painting over the mantel. The painting is the work of B. Prabha, one of India's first widely known female contemporary artists. Caroline's father purchased the piece while a student in the country in the 1960s. "It has such a cool vibe," Donohue says, "and the scale is perfect."
The master bedroom is a study in dark color done right.
For 10 years, Bill Springer lived just around the corner from the home he and his wife would share. He could even see it out his window, though he never really took note of it. Turned out, despite its initial unremarkability, the house had serious potential. "We loved the amount of light that streamed in all day," says Caroline.

Despite how badly countless numbers of smartphone users want one, and how much sense it makes to produce one, Nokia has been firm on their commitment to Windows Phone, making it clear they have no interest in manufacturing an Android phone. We've been over this before here at Android and Me, but we're bringing it up again today because Nokia CEO Stephen Elop looks to be finally softening his stance on alternative platforms.
In an interview with El Pais, Elop was quoted as saying that while Nokia is happy with Windows Phone at the moment, but left the door open by saying "anything is possible."
In the current ecosystem wars we are using Windows Phone as our weapon. But we are always thinking about what's coming next, what will be the role of HTML 5, Android… Today we are committed and satisfied with Microsoft, but anything is possible.Stephen ElopNokia
Of course this shouldn't be taken as any sort of confirmation that Nokia is working on an Android powered Lumia behind closed doors, but it's a far cry from the position Elop has taken on alternative platforms in the past. For those of us who crave Nokia's industrial design and Android's sleek, modern UI, there's still hope yet.

FAYETTEVILLE � Arkansas coach Dave Van Horn calls pitcher Trey Killian a �strike-throwing machine.�
The right-hander�s ability to do just that last Saturday helped him become the Southeastern Conference�s Freshman of the Week on Monday.
Killian earned the conference�s weekly honor after leading the Razorbacks to an 8-2 win against San Diego State in the first game of a doubleheader. The Mountain Home native didn�t allow a hit and struck out seven during his seven-inning stint, leaving the game only after reaching his predetermined pitch limit.
It continued a strong start to Killian�s career at Arkansas. He is 2-1 with a 0.84 earned run average after four appearances (three starts). Killian has allowed two earned runs and six hits with 22 strikeouts and one walk in 21 innings.
�It just says he�s very talented No. 1,� Van Horn said of Killian�s success. �Then, when he walks out there and gets between the lines, he doesn�t let things bother him.
�Whether it�s the crowd or the other team or whatever. He goes out there and plays catch. He has a gift of throwing the ball where he wants it.�
Killian came to Arkansas after being named the state�s Gatorade Player of the Year in high school. He went 8-1 with a 0.88 earned run average as a senior.
The success has continued through his first month of college baseball. Killian has quickly worked his way into the Arkansas rotation and will make his first SEC start when the Razorbacks play Ole Miss at Baum Stadium this weekend.
Van Horn said after Saturday�s doubleheader he hadn�t determined what game Killian will start in the weekend rotation, but will join veterans Ryne Stanek and Randall Fant. Killian is the second Arkansas player to be named SEC Freshman of the Week this season, joining left-handed pitcher Colin Poche.
�He�s earned it,� Van Horn said of Killian�s starting spot. �It�s not like we�re giving him anything. He�s gone out and taken it.�
Wise Named To Watch List
Arkansas catcher Jake Wise was named to Johnny Bench Award preseason watch list on Monday. The junior is one of 48 catchers on the initial work list for the award, which goes to the top division one collegiate catcher.
Wise is batting .231 with a home run and 10 RBIs through 16 games.
The Johnny Bench Award watch list will be trimmed to semifinalists on May 16. Three finalists will be revealed June 4. The winner will be named June 27.
Poll Watch
Arkansas moved one spot from No. 16 to No. 15 in this week�s Baseball America poll after its four-game sweep of San Diego State. The Razorbacks also moved up from spots from No. 19 into a tie with Louisville at No. 15 in the USA Today coaches� poll.
Arkansas will open SEC play against Ole Miss on Friday. The Rebels (16-1) are ranked No. 8 in the USA Today Coaches� poll and No. 6 by Baseball America.
�We got after it this weekend,� Van Horn said after the San Diego State sweep. �We knew after last weekend we needed to string together some wins and we did it.�

Reviewed By John H (HOLLAND, MI) Reviewed for a 2002 Chevy Monte Carlo —1/11/2014 12:56 PM
The K&N 57 Series Air Intake was a relatively easy install on the 2002 Monte Carlo SS. It seems to have added a little more horsepower and somewhat more mpg. I am pleased with the appearance and the added benefits. I would recommend it to others with similar applications
