CHURCH CREEK, Md. -- Harriet Tubman's legendary life is on vivid display at the new Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Visitor Center on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, CBS News' Chip Reid reports.
"What impresses you most about Harriet Tubman?" Reid asked Angelica Crenshaw, who works at the center.
"Her resilience. She got knocked down so many times but she kept standing up," Crenshaw said.
Born into slavery, as a young girl Tubman worked in the backwoods in brutal conditions.
"She had to know outdoor survival," Crenshaw said.
That became a life-saver when she escaped slavery at age 27 and made the arduous journey to Pennsylvania -- and freedom.
Over the next decade, she repeatedly risked her life, returning to Maryland about a dozen times to rescue more than 70 family members and friends. She guided them north along the Underground Railroad, a secret network of trails, waterways and safe houses.
Tina Wyatt, a direct descendant of Tubman, brought her grandchildren to the center to teach them about their heroic relative.
"What's it like to be a direct descendant of Harriet Tubman?" Reid asked them.
"It's really exciting," said Mackenzi Jackson.
"It's awesome!" replied Maddison Lewis.
Wyatt took Reid to the nearby Bucktown Village Store where as a child Tubman was hit in the head by a heavy weight thrown by a slave owner.
"Almost killed her," said Jay Meredith, who has turned the store into a Tubman museum. His ancestors owned slaves in the area.
"Enslaved, about 5 foot tall, and hunted," Meredith said. "When you think about Tubman and the adversities she overcame -- that's phenomenal."
"Love, faith, family… human rights. That's her legacy," Wyatt said.
A descendant of slaves and a descendant of slave owners -- both working to honor an American hero.

Both used cars and rental vehicles can be an effective choice, but only in the correct situations. Renting a vehicle can be very expensive, so it is generally a poor idea if you need a vehicle long-term. That being said, rentals can be effective if you need to change vehicles frequently, or if you plan to travel over a long distance. If you happen to be travelling for business reasons, a rental may be your only option within your expense budget. Use these tips to ensure that you make the right choice each and every time.
Deciding On a Budget
Budget is usually what dictates the type of vehicle that you purchase. Although you may be surprised, purchasing a used vehicle outright can actually be more beneficial than renting if you plan to drive the vehicle for longer periods of time. A car hire will run you hundreds over the course of a month or more. If you need a larger vehicle for groups, you may find yourself paying out even more. In this case, buying a temporary used car can help you to save money, and you can always sell it off to the first buyer before you leave the area. This helps to recoup costs.
Renting to Replace a Broken Down Vehicle
If you are renting a car to act as your vehicle until you can purchase a new car, you may also want to consider buying a cheap used car to cover you until you decide what to do. Remember: you can recoup costs by reselling the used vehicle a short time later, but you'll never be able to recoup costs from a rental.
Judging What Vehicle You Require
If you happen to be travelling with groups, rentals may also be a better choice. Groups of 10 or more people will generally require a minibus hire; it simply isn't feasible for most groups to purchase a used minibus. If you are travelling to the United Kingdom, there are some excellent coach brokers available. Book well in advance, and you will likely win great savings.
On the other hand, if you just need a very basic small car to transport your family around, a used car will likely be more affordable. If you require the vehicle for two weeks or fewer, choose to rent.
Moving vans and trucks are always better rented than bought outright, as they are typically only used once or twice.
Additionally, a wide variety of other vehicles can be both rented and purchased:
● Trailers
● Cars
● Vans
● Minibuses
● RVs
● SUVs
● Trucks
When You're Ready to Buy
Once you come to a decision on what you need, it's time to seek out a used car dealership that can be trusted. If you'll be financing, be sure to seek out a dealership that is a member of the Independent Dealer Association (IDA). Always ensure that your dealer follows the Consumer Protection Act. Ask plenty of questions, as this will help you to buy the right used vehicle. Also ask if they guarantee the condition of the used vehicle with a warranty.
When You're Ready to Rent
When you're ready to rent a vehicle, you'll need to seek out a rental or hire company that provides the type of vehicle you need. Coach or bus hire companies exist in most countries, so groups should always be able to find a suitable rental. Car, truck, van, or trailer rentals can be found at most vehicle rental shops.
Before you rent your vehicle, verify warranty, insurance, and mileage costs. Most rental companies charge by the kilometre, but this is not exclusively true; some may charge a flat rate per day, week, or month.

Book Review
Tracking E-health
Digital Medicine: Health Care in the Internet Era by Darrell M. West and Edward Alan Miller. Washington, DC: Brookings, 2009, 183pp.
Edward H. Shortliffe
When I recently moved to a new city and had to identify a primary care provider and health system, I decided to rule out any physician or provider organization that lacked the infrastructure or philosophy that would allow me to communicate with my doctor and the office staff by email, to secure online access to my lab results and other aspects of my medical record, or to make appointments electronically. Frustrated by my recent experience in another city, where my previous physician had actually changed practices in order to avoid being forced to adopt an electronic health record being implemented by colleagues and where all calls to his office were met with voicemail and promises to return my call, usually at a time that was inconvenient for me, I swore that I would never again subject myself to a healthcare environment or physician who had not adopted modern electronic means of communication, data management, and information dissemination. I recognized that I am a technophile and early adopter by nature, but as I looked at the plethora of smart phones, Facebook pages, and laptops in airport security lines that surround me every day, I suspected that I was not alone in using such "digital literacy" criteria to guide my choice of physician and healthcare system. I have subsequently been pleased to find a suitably robust, electronically sophisticated physician and healthcare environment in my new city and realize that I personally associate such capabilities with quality of care, safety, and cost containment.
But just how typical am I, and what are the trends that will increasingly determine how patients, physicians, other health professionals, and provider organizations will embrace and adopt such technologies in the years ahead? West and Miller provide some answers to such questions in a fascinating monograph that appeared in mid-2009, much of it summarizing and interpreting the results of their national e-health public opinion survey that polled by telephone 1,428 adults from across the United States in November 2005. West is a political scientist from the Brookings Institution who collaborated with Miller, a faculty member at Brown University with expertise in public policy, political science, and community health. Thus, the book is written not from the perspective of the technology per se but as an exploration of the current trends in adoption, acceptance, and pursuit of e-health solutions in the United States and abroad. Taken together, the eight chapters survey a variety of key issues that have determined the rate and degree of e-health penetration, the attitudes toward the technology and to medicine in general, and the differences among individuals based on variables such as education, economic status, access, ethnic background, age, and gender. By assessing other data from studies throughout the past decade, the authors are also able to give us a sense of the trends in many areas—trends that generally show a significant change in the rate of adoption of e-health solutions both by providers and by the public. Thus the data summarized in the volume, while often useful and sometimes surprising, beg the question of how much the situation may have changed by today, some three or four years later.
The authors begin by nicely summarizing the state of the art and the barriers to e-health innovation and adoption, providing background for their extensive study of trends in digital medicine. Their motivating argument is that "in order to achieve the promise of health information technology, digital medicine must overcome the barriers created by political divisions, fragmented jurisdiction, the digital divide, the cost of technology, ethical conflicts, and privacy concerns." They then devote the rest of the volume to analyses of the key questions in this arena that arose from their own studies or are highlighted by other data available in the literature.
They start by analyzing available health web sites, seeking insights into the differences among public, nonprofit, and commercial sites in the healthcare space. Issues addressed include the presence and role of advertising, potential conflicts of interest, the quality and accuracy of the information on the sites, and barriers to utility such as narrative text that assumes reading levels above those of the general population, language barriers, cultural incompatibilities, or a failure to address the needs of individuals with disabilities (especially visual impairments).
The authors acknowledge that barriers to effective use of online information are determined not only by the nature of the information sites themselves but also by the extent to which individuals who may need such information are familiar with computers and Internet use and have regular access to the technology. Thus, one of their analyses focuses on three particular indicators of e-health use and sophistication by individuals: email communication with providers, access to web sites for information, and use of the Internet to purchase medications or other medical materials. A variety of socioeconomic and demographic barriers to increased use of health information technology are documented, among both patients and providers. As my own experience has demonstrated, the failure to use email to communicate with a physician or with office staff may not reflect reluctance on the part of the patient but refusal to provide such services on the part of the clinician. Similarly, the online purchase of medications often depends on the type of health insurance that covers a patient and the ease of submitting prescriptions to a central online resource, rather than on the patient's desire for such access.
West and Miller also explore the relationship between e-health participation and attitudes toward the healthcare system. It is fascinating that their analysis of this topic begins with discussion of a 2002 article in The Milbank Quarterly by David Blumenthal, appointed by President Obama to be the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (HIT) shortly after this volume had gone to press. Blumenthal is quoted as expressing concern that patient satisfaction with the quality of medical care will decline in a wired world. One wonders how his impressions may have evolved since his immersion in the HIT world. The data summarized by West and Miller, however, suggest that there are no guarantees that a wired world is going to produce positive attitudes toward the healthcare system. The mere use of electronic media does not enhance an individual's perceptions of the health system unless it is accompanied by other indicators of quality that provide reassurance and a sense of personal empowerment and individualized attention.
Another key issue in the dissemination and adoption of e-health resources is the role of demography. It is not surprising that socioeconomic status would have an effect on one's ability and interest in online health information, email, and prescription purchases, but the authors' data provide useful insights about other sociodemographic determinants as well. For example, women are more likely than are men to use e-health resources, and younger people are more likely to turn to commercial web sites than public ones, perhaps reflecting privacy fears and distrust of government in the younger age groups. Racial and ethnic determinants are also striking, with Asians in the United States the most sophisticated in their use of e-health resources with substantially lower (but improving) numbers for African-Americans and Hispanics. Language issues are seen as particularly important elements in the digital disparities affecting the Hispanic community. Such issues emphasize the challenges for policymakers who are attempting to close the digital divide, both broadly and in the healthcare setting.
West and Miller also provide sobering data on how the United States compares with other parts of the world in the adoption of e-health capabilities by patients, providers, and governments. Some challenges relate to the differences in basic broadband infrastructure, which saw the United States ranked fourth in 2001 but fifteenth by 2007, a reflection of the nation's limited national investment and its belief that the private sector will take care of the proliferation of necessary infrastructure to support e-health and other social goods. The United States has invested heavily in high-quality, government-sponsored health-related web sites, and it compares favorably with other parts of the world in this regard. In the use of such resources by the public and the overall adoption of HIT by providers and health systems, however, the United States is woefully behind most of the developed world.
The volume closes by proposing policies and activities that are necessary to advance the role and acceptance of digital medicine in the United States. Their suggestions follow logically from the earlier analyses, are persuasive, and resonate with recommendations from a variety of professional and scientific groups that bemoan the country's relatively slow progress in advancing this field and realizing its full potential. Improved education, both of the public and of current and future health professionals, is viewed as a key element in any solution, and has been too often overlooked when others have assessed approaches to making better use of information technology in health care. The data in this volume show that we also have a significant need to boost computer literacy, despite the ubiquitous cell phones and Facebook pages to which I referred earlier. Given the economic determinants of e-health use and the digital divide, low-cost technologies and improved access through publicly available means continue to be key requirements. We also need improved public investment to create and maintain the broadband infrastructure necessary to serve the populace and maintain economic competitiveness. This is a fundamentally political issue and one that has lacked significant government support despite the data showing that the United States is falling behind other countries by relying on the private sector for such solutions. Thus, overcoming the stultifying effects of the modern political process, while also taking ethical and privacy considerations seriously, is also an important element in any long-term solution.
In summary, this volume is thought provoking and insightful, although it begs for a current update so that we can understand how the situation has changed over the past few years in this rapidly evolving area. The text is a bit dry, with copious tables and discussion of statistical results, but the summary statements and closing chapter provide an excellent sense of the issues and investments that will determine the success, acceptance, and impact of e-health as digital medicine continues to evolve in the decade ahead.

Man With Knife Shot, Killed by Deputy in Temecula
A man with a knife was shot and killed by a deputy in Temecula Tuesday morning, officials said.
Riverside County Sheriff's Department Sgt. Chris Durham said the shooting took place about 10:30 a.m. outside a Riverside County courthouse — in a county complex at County Center Drive and Ynez Road.
A deputy responded to a report of an altercation between a man and a woman in the parking lot. The deputy tried to intervene as the man was being "verbally abusive" toward a family member, sheriff's officials said in a news release.
The deputy asked the man to follow his directions, but the man refused and at one point brandished a knife, officials said. The man then moved toward the deputy in a "threatening manner" and officials said an officer-involved shooting occurred.
Deputies rendered aid and called for medical personnel, but the man died at the scene, officials said.
A deputy was not shot but was left with injuries that are not life-threatening, Durham said. He was placed on administrative leave, which is standard following officer-involved shootings.
The sergeant could not immediately confirm the man was killed, but aerial video from Sky5 showed a man's body lying face-up in the parking lot outside the Grace Mellman library. Officials later confirmed the fatally in the news release.
Homicide investigators were on scene looking for witnesses, Durham said.
A witness told the Riverside Press-Enterprise she heard two shots. The area was cordoned off, the newspaper said.

The Missing Evidence on Student Learning.
Warren, Jonathan R.
The question of whether colleges are doing better or worse in educating their graduates compared with previous years is addressed. Attention is directed to recent trends in average test scores of students at graduation, as well as what the scores represent. Information is provided on changes since 1966 in several tests of academic aptitude taken by college graduates: the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) General Test, the Law School Admission Test, and the Graduate Management Admission Test. Scholastic Aptitude Test scores from high school are also shown. Trends since 1968 are also indicated on eight subject tests. After briefly reviewing trends in test scores, it is noted that GRE scores provide information useful for graduate school admission, but they do not provide information on the educational quality of college programs. The following kinds of information that would provide acceptable evidence of educational quality are identified: compilation of the titles and catalog descriptions of courses undertaken by students who complete different programs; questions that make up the examinations given in the courses that constitute representative programs of study; and results of course examinations that indicate the scope and depth of student learning.

Sign on for heritage charm: Unusual venues in Penang for business events
WHILE Kuala Lumpur hogs the spotlight in Malaysia as a buzzing venue for MICE and business events, you shouldn't be so quick to disregard some of the country's equally charming states.
We speak particularly of Penang, an impossibly attractive island state in the peninsula's northern region. The state's well-preserved colonial and heritage architecture has made the capital of Georgetown a UNESCO World Heritage Site almost two centuries after its role as a British output and trading center.
Penang is also known for being one of Malaysia's most important food hubs, but it's not just the noodles visitors are filtering in for. The state has been the host of several major trade shows attended by buyers from all over the world, with many more in the pipeline this year.
SEE ALSO: Sarawak is the region's alternative MICE destination
The Penang Convention & Exhibition Bureau (PCEB) acts as the leading business and leisure events expert and helps delegates and planners organize events in Penang. The bureau is equipped to help with budgeting and booking venues, as well as with details such as food and IT services.
While Penang has its fair share of events and convention centers, it's worth looking into some of the state's more unique venues. By virtue of its coastal location and natural charm, Penang can offer experiences unique to those you'll get in Kuala Lumpur.
Chief executive officer of PCEB Ashwin Gunasekeran told Travel Wire Asia, "Penang's unique venues continue to get international MICE media attention, year after year. This is in part due to the 'beyond meetings' trend that seek for novelty in the meeting experience and in part to do with the unique venues Penang has to offer.
"For instance, the WTM Connect Asia 2016 held its gala dinner at Khoo Kongsi where the delegates were treated to cultural performances from the different ethnic groups in Penang as well as to delicious Penang cuisine."
SEE ALSO: Unique venues in Japan for business events
To help put Penang on the map as an events hub, PCEB rolled out a campaign called "Experiences Unfiltered". Through the campaign, "authentic, varied, and eclectic" experiences are highlighted to set Penang apart from other business events destinations in the region.
Here are a few venues in Penang that highlight the state as an alternative option for business events.
Khoo Kongsi
This ornate clan house is a testament to the elaborate and intricate architecture that is characteristic of the clan houses and temples found in Penang. The venue has a traditional theater and a vast granite-paved square, both which are ideal to host gala events and performances.
You could also request for a traditional Malay banquet dinner accompanied by performances such as lion dance (Chinese acrobatic dance), bharatanatyam (classical Indian dance), bhangra (Punjabi folk dance), and kuda kepang (traditional Javanese dance).
Fort Cornwallis
This sprawling fort is the largest standing fort in the country, and was once commissioned by Francis Light to defend Penang from the attack of pirates and military forces from Kedah. The initial structure of the fort was simply made of "nibong" palm trunks.
These days, the square is a popular venue for gala events, themed dinners, and contemporary and cultural performances. You can also request for a fireworks display and a colonial-inspired setting to whisk you straight back to the days of the British Raj.
Tropical Spice Garden
This eight-acre garden is a lush, tropical setting home to over 500 tropical varieties from the world over as well as breezy outdoor café overlooking the Straits of Malacca and the scenic shorelines of Teluk Bahang.
Aside from garden tours, you could also hold bonding sessions and team events over cooking classes where delegates will receive hands-on schooling on Nyonya, Malay, and Indian cusisine. Classes are kept small and personalized, all the better to hold friendly "competitions".
Suffolk House
This stunning Anglo-Indian garden house – originally built in the 1800s – is Malaysia's only surviving Georgian mansion. The restored house has hosted many a glittering dinner party, and was once home to successive British governors.
Not only do delegates get a taste of classically furnished rooms and unique Anglo-Indian antiques, they will also be treated to life in a mansion over lunch, afternoon tea, or dinner. The space has a ballroom that can fit up to 80.
The Habitat Penang Hill
This eco-tourism attraction is known for its natural beauty and commitment to nature preservation, both reason enough to organize a nature trail for delegates. The trail is set on the fringes of only one of two virgin rain forests remaining in Penang, said to be 130 million years old.
Walk through themed gardens such as the Red Garden, the Butterfly Bank, the Ginger Grove, and the Orchid Garden. If you want your event to gain momentum on Instagram or Facebook, here's one way to do it.

text: After reading your reply here, Bobby, I had to laugh about the California/South remark. Wife and I spent many years in Southern California, before we met and married. She went there with her young son, from Lincoln Park, Michigan, to be close to family who had moved there to escape winter. I decided to stay after getting my Discharge from the Navy in San Diego. Southern California is definitely not the South, but it is the southern part of the State. We live in the South and I can definitely tell the difference between "the South" and Southern California. However, we would never move back to Southern California. We love Colorado and Wyoming to much to do that, even with their winters.

This is a great way to bring the beach home without bringing it home. Commercially sold "moon sand" is a texture of sand similar to what you find at the beach. The sand holds a shape long enough to make a castle, but with little efforts falls apart – just like beach sand.
! ! Have fun ! !
:: Ingredients ::
4 cups of all purpose flour
1/2 cup of oil (cooking oil, baby oil, whatever you have)
coloring gel (very optional) – it takes a lot of food coloring/coloring gel to color the batch
1 container/bin (I used a tote container with low sides)
Steps 1- Determine which bin/container you will use. Measure out 4 cups of flour and place it in the bin. I use a large bin so I quadruple (x4) the recipe (16 cups).
Step 2- Add the oil. I use baby oil, but other parents have used vegetable, canola or cooking oil. Add coloring, if you are going to add it (I do, only when I have lots as it takes a lot of food coloring/gel to color 16 cups of flour).
Step 3- Combine well, with your hands until the oil and coloring is well combined with the flour.
Step 4- Let the family enjoy the sand 😀

COD-WIN aims to facilitate discussion and dissemination of information on gender equity
in STEM sciences.
In 2014, the COD Women's received a grant through the Elsevier Foundation New Scholars Program to create a self-sustaining infrastructure administered by the AAPA to improve the environment for all women physical anthropologists. This two-year grant will support career development initiatives including domestic and international career development workshops, and the creation of sustainable toolkits and webinars that can be easily accessed and widely shared in order to initiate and continue conversations about strategic career planning and work-life satisfaction.
The COD-WIN has delivered pre-meeting workshops in advance of the annual AAPA meetings funded through a combination of Elsevier and AAPA support. These workshops provide mentoring, professional development and networking skills aimed at midcareer, postdoctoral and graduate student women.
To extend the reach of the programs, in the fall of 2016 and spring of 2017, COD-WIN launched several satellite workshops. Women from across the globe gathered at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Durham University, England, and Santa Clara University, California, to participate in these first AAPA-sponsored domestic and international professional development workshops for women biological anthropology scholars. Funded by a grant from the Elsevier Foundation New Scholars Program to Robin Bernstein and Andrea Taylor (Co-Chairs of the Committee on Diversity Women's Initiative), and facilitated by consultants Donna J. Dean and Cynthia Simpson of the Association for Women in Science, these workshops offered career development, guidance on mentoring and work-life satisfaction, and networking opportunities to a diverse group of women representing all subdisciplines in biological anthropology and all ranks within academia. Check out these photos (Photos by Kathy West at KathyWestStudios.com) and look to the AAPA COD website for information on the next international workshop to be held in the fall of 2017 at the University of Cape Town!

My how time flies! I started this blog one year ago. I thought I would take some time to look back and see how it went. Accomplishments and failures.
I went back and read my very first post, How we started Homesteading and read through the goals that we set.
Some of the things on our list are paying off the house, putting in solar panels, planting an orchard, increasing the size of the garden, and raising chickens, pigs and cows. Stay tuned to see how this goes. We're just getting started.
So- let's see how we did.
- Our emergency fund is fully funded. Woohoo! We have 6 months of expenses saved up. Trust me, it's worth the sacrifice to get to this point. It does help you sleep better.
- We put a nice dent in the mortgage and put an extra twenty grand on the principle!
- We're doing much better with budgeting. For me it's an ongoing, work in process.
- We definitely increased the size of the garden this year. I've put away quite a bit of the harvest. We've had some failures along the way (i.e. lost all the corn), but we're learning form them so we can improve it next year.
- We didn't get any of the animals that I mentioned above, but we did get 3 goats over the year. We're learning so much about animal husbandry. We really want to get cows, but those probably won't come until the house is paid for.
Solar Panels & planting an orchard:
- We didn't do either of these this year. The solar panels will be a big investment. They are definitely on hold until the house is paid off. I'm still hopeful that we can get the orchard started this Fall.
You definitely don't want to go down the Homesteading path with debt. It's only going to drag you down and give you sleepless nights. The constant worry of living paycheck to paycheck is going to make you sick. Being debt free is a wonderful thing. I can't imagine what it will be like to have a paid for home.
Thank you for your support and kind words over this past year.
Here's to the start of the 2nd year! I can't wait to see what it brings!
Be sure to follow me on Instagram @newgardenhomestead to see all the latest going ons.

It shall be noticed, that in men, approximately 5% of testosterone undergoes 5α-reduction to form the more potent androgen, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), also known as androstanolone. From another side approximately % of testosterone is converted into estradiol (the primary female sex hormone) by aromatase an enzyme expressed in the brain, liver, and adipose tissues. Hence, don`t forget to take precautions to avoid respective side effects. Thereof we recommend to perform blood works and take aromatase inhibitors on cycle (if required, anastrozole preferably) and SERMs (clomifene, toremifene) during post cycle therapy (PCT).
I have to disagree with all this talk about the terrible side effects of tren the aggression of tren that absolutely everyone gets. Idk if I'm just lucky or one of the few (I doubt it) but I really don't think tren is all that harsh. I have used tren for quite a long time on and off ofcourse. I've ran anywhere between 50 and 100 mg ed injects. I also disagree with three injections of tren a week to be enough. I just don't see how that could possibly keep blood levels stable and may be your problem as far as sides. Have you ever injected tren ed? Maybe u should try it. I have tried it many ways and i can tell you for me Atleast if I run 75 mg ed I get no night sweats no insomnia no negative sides at all really to speak of!! Only side I experience is occasional tren cough after inject and decrease in cardio slightly. That's it. I lose absolutely NO sleep at night I don't get sweats and no aggression. Im almost convinced I'm less aggressive while on tren if anything! I'm sure my wife could attest to this!! I feel amazing while on it and gotta 24/7 hardon!!! Ofcourse I always add a little test prop in there usually at 50mg day. So if anyone wanna give it a go I would suggest low test high tren ed injects. Might not work for everyone but I can say without a doubt for me it works and works amazingly well!! This is just my personal experience not tryin to tell anyone what to do and not trying undercut anyone else's knowledge or experience. Take it or leave it. :) One more thing, I can say when I was doing eod injects I did get a couple more sides but soon as I went to ed they disappeared and I never looked back. But like I said I have most likely no where near the experience or knowledge that the author of this article has so take my advice with a grain of salt, but it worked for me.. Peace out everyone.

Tony Blair waded into the general election campaign today claiming David Cameron's pledge to hold a referendum on EU membership will produce "chaos" and "unpredictability" in the UK economy. The pro-European former prime minister said leaving the EU would render the country "a parochial bystander" without global ambition.
In a speech delivered in his former constituency of Sedgefield, Mr Blair claimed the suggestion of a Brexit would put jobs at risk and major investment decisions will be postponed. He also praised Ed Miliband's "real leadership on the EU" before going on to express his admiration for the Labour leader whom he called "his own man with his own convictions and determined to follow them, even when they go against the tide".
In the speech Tony Blair said: "Think of the chaos produced by the possibility, never mind the reality, of Britain quitting Europe. Jobs that are secure suddenly insecure; investment decisions postponed or cancelled; a pall of unpredictability hanging over the British economy."
He continued: "A decision to exit Europe would say a lot about us, and none of it good: that an adventurous country has become a timid one; that one with global ambitions has opted to be a parochial bystander; that a country known for its openness to the world shuts the open door nearest to it; that a nation which has built its history on confidence towards others defines itself by resentment to others; that, with all the challenges of the world crowding in upon us, demanding strong and clear leadership, instead of saying 'here's where the world should go', we say 'count us out'."
In a statement, the Conservative Party said Mr Blair had "no credibility" on the EU. "He gave away Britain's rebate, now he wants to deny the British people their say on the European Union", it said. The Home Secretary, Theresa May, told the BBC that the need to bring in Tony Blair at this stage was telling. She said: "It shows the weakness of Ed Miliband that Labour has had to bring Tony Blair into the fray at this point."
Blair has not always been so positive about Ed Miliband. In the Economist, he cast doubt on Ed Miliband's chances of winning the next election. He said it could well be an election "in which a traditional left-wing party competes with a traditional right-wing party, with the traditional result".
Asked if he meant a Conservative win, Mr Blair said "Yes, that is what happens". Despite his scepticism he has donated £1000 each to 106 Labour candidates across the country.
UKIPs economics spokesman, Patrick O'Flynn, hit back at Blair's claims on the BBC:

Q: I can't get Calc to show unless it is maximised - what do I do?
A: You can see Calc in the taskbar, and you can maximize it to see it full screen. But when you "Restore" or try to change the size, it disappears. Really frustrating!
Usually this is because Calc has ended up being located off-screen. This can happen to any application, particularly if you sometimes use a second monitor.
To bring Calc back into view, "Restore" the application, then go to the menu by right clicking the taskbar icon (on Windows 7 you have to hover over the taskbar icon until the preview window pops up, then right click on that) then click on Move, and then hold down the left mouse button and you should be able to move the application back into view. Sometimes this doesn't work, in which case you can also try using the cursor arrow keys, holding the key down if necessary in each direction to try to bring it back into view.
Failing that, as a last resort, go to the Option menu on Calc, click on General and then click on the Factory settings button, then click OK and close down Calc. This is a bit drastic but should get everything back to normal, but you will lose any other settings you have altered.
Q: When I click on Help in the calculator, why is the page not found?
A: This sometimes happens when the calculator executable file is moved, for example to the taskbar, instead of using a shortcut. If it doesn't run the executable from its own directory, it can't always find files such as help and other support files. On Windows, the SETUP.EXE program in the Calc directory can be used to add shortcuts.
Q: Why does my computer freeze up when I am running Calc (or other program)?
A: There are many possible causes of this including device driver problems, damaged registry, faulty RAM or cache or other hardware problems, damaged Windows system files or DLL files, viruses and of course an error in the program itself. Given that Calc has run without difficulty on over a million computers it is most likely that there is some problem specific to your machine. If the program "freezes" or "hangs" you can close it using Ctrl-Alt-Del to bring up the task manager. This will then allow you to find any programs which are shown as "not responding" and close them. They may disappear immediately or there may be a delay of up to thirty seconds before a second confirmation dialog box appears. Often when this happens Windows will continue to be unstable and eventually the task manager itself freezes, or a fatal error occurs (see below). For this reason we recommend making sure that you save all data in any running applications if the system starts to behave in this way. If the problem persists, use the troubleshooting checklist below.
Q: Why does my computer keep crashing with a Fatal Exception error (blue screen)
A: These are usually Fatal Exception 0D (General Protection Fault) and Fatal Exception 0E (Page Fault) and are caused by the hardware detecting an attempt by a program to access memory outside its permitted address space. There are many possible causes of this including device driver problems, damaged registry, faulty RAM or cache or other hardware problems, damaged Windows system files or DLL files, viruses and of course an error in the program itself. Given that Calc has run without difficulty on over a million computers it is most likely that there is some problem specific to your machine. Usually the problems are not restricted to a single application and may occur apparently randomly. You can learn more about Fatal Exceptions at the Microsoft web site. We suggest you follow the troubleshooting steps below, checking to see if the application works after each step.
Q: Why am I getting the message Exception: 0xC0000005?
A: Exception: 0xC0000005 indicates an access violation, in other words the program tried to read or write memory it wasn't supposed to. The details of the actual memory address aren't very helpful. An access violation can be caused by a programming error. But it can also be the result of a hardware error or faulty memory, or the actual error may have occurred in a DLL or other system file. The executable file for Calc could also have been corrupted. But note that unless the file you originally downloaded fails to self-extract, it is very unlikely that the download itself is corrupted. A corrupted data file (default.dat) can also occasionally cause problems. We suggest you try the following in turn, until Calc runs without problems:
Q: How can I get rid of Windows crashes, hangs and freeze-ups?
A: This is usually not a problem with Calc, but can have a variety of causes. Unfortunately, there is no easy answer to this. The problems are partly due to the diversity of hardware and software used in a typical PC, and also the many constraints, such as backwards compatibility, placed on the designers of the operation system. We suggest the following sequence of troubleshooting checks, running Calc to see if the problem is resolved:
Q: Why do I only get the digits before the decimal symbol of the number when I try to paste into Calc from another application?
A: If you are getting this problem and you are using version 5.30 and you are using a character for the decimal separator other than the period (e.g. the comma symbol) then the decimal separator will not be parsed correctly. This problem is fixed in later versions.
Q: Why do I only get the first digit of the number when I try to paste into another application?
A: There is a bug which affects the Unicode version of Calc version 5.3 only. The suggested work-around is to use the non-Unicode version. You only need to run the Unicode version if you are running WindowsNT, 2000 or XP and you are using a non-Latin-1 codepage (e.g. Hebrew, Arabic or Eastern European). The bug is fixed in the version 5.6.
Q: Why do I sometimes get a Windows error after starting in RPN mode?
A: There is a bug which affects Calc version 5.3 on Windows only, when used in RPN mode. If you have values on the stack, close the application and then start it again and immediately use a unary operator (e.g. 1/x) you may get a Windows error. The suggested work-around is to run Calc as a tool tray application (select Options, View tab, Taskbar Tray Icon). This means that after closing Calc it is actually minimised to the tool tray so it does not need to start again next time you use it. The bug is fixed in version 5.6.
Q: How do I un-install Calc from my PC?
A: You can uninstall Calc using the setup.exe application in the installation directory ("/Program Files/Calc" by default). There should also be a link called "uninstall". You can also use the Windows Control Panel and select Add/Remove Programs. You should then be able to select Calc from the list to run the uninstaller.
If you have obtained Calc from an archive which has an older version of the installer, there may not be an automated uninstall option. In this case, simply delete the directory into which you installed Calc (which is usually "/Program Files/Calc"). There is a very small amount of data in the registry, and if you really want to delete it, then first run the calculator and select the Data page of the Options dialog and click on the "Factory Setting" button. Click the "Yes" button in the confirmation message, then quit the application. You can then delete the files as described above. If you created any shortcuts to Calc (e.g. on the desktop or Start Menu), you will need to remove these also.
Q: How do I stop Calc from starting up every time I start the computer?
A: If you configured Calc to start up automatically and now wish to disable this, you can run the setup program again (setup.exe in the Calc directory) and disable it. Alternatively you can manually delete the shortcut from the Startup directory. You can reach the Startup directory by right clicking on the Start button and selecting Open, then go into Programs and then Startup.
Q: Why does Calc sometimes hang, e.g. when I click on the '=' key?
A: A possible cause of problems is if you have a Logitech QuickCam installed. The webcam driver software, and in particular LVPrcInj.dll, attaches itself to other software running on your computer and can cause problems with other applications. A suggested workaround is to go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Logitech\LVMVFM\ (or use the search feature to find the location of the file) and rename the file LVPrcInj.dll to LVPrcInj.old to prevent it from loading. It may be necessary to reboot the computer in Safe Mode to rename the file if it is in use. After renaming the file and rebooting the affected applications should work again, although some "Video Effects" features of the webcam may be disabled. If this fixes the problem it indicates that this driver is the cause, and it might be worth checking the Logitech website to see if they have an updated driver that fixes the problem.
Q: Why does Calc look funny on Windows Vista?
A: When Calc 5.6 first starts on Windows Vista the menu may run onto two lines (depending on version) and the buttons may be bunched to one side and up against the calculator display. You can correct this by dragging the resize border on the right to make it slightly wider, and possibly extend the border slightly downwards to make the display larger. If you close Calc and restart it the changes should persist.

Cranberries and your teeth
Desperately casting about for a post with a Thanksgiving theme (we are in Canada and don't get the day off!) we found this: Tonight's cranberries might be good for your teeth. It turns out that the same compounds that make them effective against urinary infections also go after the bacteria that cause the buildup of plaque on teeth. Unfortunately to make cranberries palatable they are mixed with a great deal of sugar, so don't give up brushing for cranberry juice yet. Nonetheless, you can feel better about covering your Tofurkey in it. ::Yahoo News

Skylights have been in use for centuries, and are a tried and true roof application that provide beautiful natural lighting while helping you save on electric bills – a combination that can't be beat. Here we discuss several of the benefits of skylights and how they can improve the environment of any home.
- Skylights furnish beautiful, plentiful natural light at no cost – helping you save money by using your electric lights less and reducing your electric bills.
- Skylights are a boost to the indoor environment of any home. Natural lighting offers mood and health boosts while also refreshing the interior.
- As an extra boost to the interior of a home, skylights are available as fixed or venting. Venting skylights can be opened with a rod, or electrically, to draw warm air out and circulate fresh air through the room.

He was left to fend for himself since he was born, it was a wonder that he had survived. There he was, that paper, those words, the ones that he could not understand. 'Stay strong, you're supposed to'. Written by the law breaker. He was born just before it was too late, before nature had taken over. The years in which she too was born. One of many. A female. But was it by chance, or circumstance that she, Evie Barns, would come across the only surviving male?

THE SPIRIT AND REGENERATION. According to Jesus and Paul, regeneration, new birth being born again, is the work of the Spirit.
Jesus replied, "I assure you: Unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." "But how can anyone be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked Him. "Can he enter his mother's womb a second time and be born?" Jesus answered, "I assure you: Unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. Whatever is born of the flesh is flesh, and whatever is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not be amazed that I told you that you must be born again" (John 3:3-7).
The Spirit is the One who gives life. The flesh doesn't help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life (John 6:63).
He saved us—not by works of righteousness that we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit. This Spirit He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that having been justified by His grace, we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life (Titus 3:5-7).
Because of the Father's mercy, a believer obtains imputed righteousness (justified) through Christ and God's imparted righteousness through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, salvation is a threefold work of the Trinity, with the Holy Spirit as the agent of it.
"Regeneration" (paliggenesia paliggenesia) a compound of "again" and "birth" is the imparting of life to that which was previously dead. It appears once more in the Bible, speaking of the eschatological renewal of all things when Christ sits on His throne in the kingdom (Matthew 19:28).
Does regeneration go beyond what Adam forfeited through his rebellion? With regeneration, the Spirit of God indwells the believer. Man's relationship with God might be restored in a greater way than Adam experienced. The Bible is silent as to God indwelling him. Regeneration is a result of anwyen (anothen), being "born again," "anew" or "from above" and "of the Spirit" (John 3:3-8).
Regeneration is a resurrection from spiritual death to spiritual life, a new birth a new creation possessing the divine nature.
But God, who is abundant in mercy, because of His great love that He had for us made us alive with the Messiah even though we were dead in trespasses. By grace you are saved! (Ephesians 2:5).
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come (2 Corinthians 5:17).
For we are His creation—created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time so that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10).
By these He has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world because of evil desires (2 Peter 1:4).
Regeneration does not produce sinless perfection in the believer. Rather, it leads to a daily renunciation of worldly passions and to sober, upright, godly living in this world.
But now you must also put away all the following: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and filthy language from your mouth. Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his practices and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of his Creator (Colossians 3:10).
The believer receives the divine nature but needs to put off the old man and put on the new man. Regeneration is not a process but a new birth, which is entirely a supernatural work of the Trinity:
1. The Father (John 1:13; James 1:17-18)
2. The Son (John 5:21-27
3. The Spirit (John 3:3-7; Titus 3:5)
However, transformation (putting on the new man) is the responsibility of the believer, which is an ongoing process.
Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God (Romans 12:2).
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:22-24 NIV).
Being instantaneous, regeneration is not experiential. It is not dependent on feeling, though it may produce feeling. No one can answer the question, "What exactly happens at regeneration?"
Though the term "regeneration" is not used in the New Covenant, a new heart (regeneration) is its primary promise (Jeremiah 31:33; 32:39-40; Ezekiel 11:19-20; Ezekiel 36:24-27) and the reason Christ gave His life.
In the same way He also took the cup after supper and said, "This cup is the new covenant established by My blood; it is shed for you (Luke 22:20).
As we have seen, the Spirit convicts those in the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment. It is through the Word of God—the Gospel message—the Spirit reveals righteousness from God in Christ (Romans 1:1-6; 3:21-26; 1 Corinthians 2:9-10). Therefore, the Holy Spirit is involved in a person's salvation prior to new birth. Prior to regeneration, the Holy Spirit pierces the heart with the Word of God, which is the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17).
For the word of God is living and effective and sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating as far as to divide soul, spirit, joints, and marrow; it is a judge of the ideas and thoughts of the heart Hebrews 4:12).
The Spirit's piercing the heart with the Word of God is evident when Peter preached on Pentecost.
When they heard this, they were pierced to the heart and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles: "Brothers, what must we do?" "Repent," Peter said to them, "and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus the Messiah for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and for your children, and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call" (Acts 2:36-39).
No one is saved outside of the Holy Spirit piercing his or her heart with the Word of God.
For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. But how can they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe without hearing about Him? And how can they hear without a preacher? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: How welcome are the feet of those who announce the gospel of good things! (Romans 10:13-15).
Salvation is always a two-sided transaction. First, God calls people to repentance through His Word and His Spirit, and then, a person calls on God with repentance and belief in the heart.
The message is near you, in your mouth and in your heart. This is the message of faith that we proclaim: if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. With the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses, resulting in salvation (Romans 10:8-10).
Repentance and belief are a free will choice of the individual, yet they are prompted by the Holy Spirit through the Word of God, especially the Law. The Law brings about the knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20) and it leads to Christ so that we might be saved (Galatians 3:24). Therefore, the ministry of the Spirit in regeneration begins with His conviction and enlightment.

Men's Ministry
At PRC, we believe a vital part of a strong and effective church hinges on the spiritual strength of the men in the church, the ability to stand strong and lead as God has intended them. Whether a leader in his home or a leader of a portion of the ministry, each and every man has the responsibility to guide those he has been placed over.
It is out of this knowledge and desire to see men stand up to the plate, that Pastor Ken birthed the ministry geared towards encouraging and strengthening the men at PRC. Designed to instruct even the youngest of men with Godly principles while surrounding them with positive fellowship among peers, the Men's Ministry is a staple part of a fun and Godly outreach for men of all ages.
The variety of activities keeps men driven to be involved while they develop positive relationships that guide them in their Christian walk. There is always something going on, from game nights and movie nights to men's retreat, food and fellowship, fun and games, laughing and encouraging, shooting guns and paintball wars. Remembering that just because we stand as Christian men of God, it doesn't mean we can't have a good time as well!
Forming strong bonds between the men of PRC causes them to stand in support of each other as one may walk through a difficulty, it allows others to step in and show an example of God's love. Creating the most effective bond the men can have.....unity in Christ!
We encourage all men ages 12 and up to come out and join the Men's Ministry and experience life changing fellowship!

Henry led a great workshop at our store, introducing his percussive techniques. The attendees all enjoyed themselves and learned a lot of new skills to add to their arsenal. Definitely not your average guitar workshop – and that's a good thing!Kristen Jones
On Saturday March 7th, 2015 we had the pleasure of hosting an acoustic guitar workshop with guitarists Henry Nam and Anthony Troy.
To say that our clientele and staff were impressed would be an understatement. Their willingness to engage and allow for participation from the audience was refreshing and just what needs to happen in that environment.
Fantastically talented, Henry and Anthony played several music pieces, demonstrated and explained advanced techniques to all in attendance.
We are very thankful to have hosted such a wonderful event and look forward to Henry Nam add Anthony Troy ringing our walls with their amazing guitar mastery.B. Scott Johnson
I attended Henry Nam's guitar workshop at the SERFA conference in May, and walked away thinking, "I can do this!" Henry has reached a level of playing that many only dream of, and certainly I've been one of the dreamers – until now. He was able to guide us through harmonics, using the guitar as a percussion instrument, and tapping the strings to achieve various rhythms and melody, in a way that was both encouraging and useful. Henry is a wonderful facilitator, incredible musician, and genuine person. Thank you for opening this window for me.Nancy Beaudette

GMA: Extra packaging a waste for grocery manufacturers
WASHINGTON — Consumers can expect to find less packaging with their food and beverages in the coming years as manufacturers look to eliminate waste.
The Grocery Manufacturers Association found that by 2020, 2.5 billion lbs. of waste is expected to be avoided. This is on top of the 1.5 billion lbs. of packaging avoided since 2005.
"Across the board, the food, beverage and consumer products industry has been vigilant in its efforts to reduce its environmental footprint," said Pamela Bailey, president and CEO of GMA. "When it comes to eliminating packaging from the supply chain, we have already made significant progress, but we know we can do more. We look forward to meeting this goal to eliminate 4 billion lbs. of packaging by 2020."
The 1.5 billion lbs. of packaging avoided since 2005 includes more than 800 million lbs. of plastic and more than 500 million lbs. of paper. Packaging improvements have spanned most product categories, with no single category dominating. Companies reported that they achieved the 2005 to 2010 reductions through the success of more than 180 distinct improvement initiatives that included package redesigns and increased use of recyclable inputs.

Latest snow forecast
Updated: 12.45pm Friday 18 November 2016
The weather in the Alps remains unsettled, with further snow but also some rain in places over the next few days. Temperatures will drop temporarily on Saturday but, generally speaking, it will remain quite mild – even becoming very mild on the northern side of the Alps early next week where the Foehn will be blowing.
Most of today's snow will be in the western Alps, only above 2000m or so at first (lower in some north-western Italian valleys) before it lowers more generally later in the day and overnight. On Saturday, the heaviest precipitation will be further east.
Snowfall totals this weekend will be highly variable but don't expect much below 1500m. Above 2000m, most areas should see between 5-30cm, perhaps 40-50cm in one or two favoured locations such as the border areas between south-east Switzerland and Italy, and south-west Austria and Italy.
Detailed forecast:
The rest of Friday will be mostly dry with variable clouds, though a little rain may reach the far west later (snow 2000m).
Saturday will see showers or longer spells of rain in all areas, heaviest in the south (East Tirol, Carinthia). The rain/snow limit will be around 1000-1200m in the west, 2000m at first in the east but dropping later.
Sunday will be mostly dry with variable cloud, and a little milder again.
The rest of Friday will see showers or longer spells of rain spread to most areas, continuing overnight. The rain/snow limit will start close to 2000m in most places but will fall to between 1200m and 1600m later tonight.
Saturday will start mostly dry with some residual showers in places (snow 1000-1400m), but skies should brighten in most areas as the day wears on.
Sunday will see variable cloud. Many places will stay dry but some showers (snow 1600-1800m) are likely later, mostly in the south and west.
The rest of Friday will see showers or longer spells of rain for many, heaviest in the far north-west (upper Aosta) at first, and later in the central Italian Alps (Lombardy). The eastern Italian Alps should stay dry until tonight. The rain/snow limit will be highly variable – as low as 1400m in parts of the upper Aosta Valley, more generally 1800-2000m, but falling from the west tonight.
Saturday will see the heaviest precipitation in the eastern half of the Italian Alps with a rain/snow limit initially around 2000m in the far east, falling to between 1200m and 1700m later. After a few early showers/flurries, the western Italian Alps should be brighter.
Sunday will be mostly dry in the eastern Italian Alps. Further west, showers will return, heaviest later in the day and in the northern Piedmonte and north-eastern Aosta region with a rain/snow limit around 1400-1600m.
The rest of Friday will see showers or longer spells of rain in the west spreading slowly east and continuing in many places overnight. Some southern regions will only see a few showers. The rain/snow limit will start at around 2000m but drop to between 1000m and 1500m by the end of the night.
Saturday will be mostly cloudy with showers (snow 1000-1200m) clearing from the west as the day progresses.
Sunday will be mostly dry with variable cloud but snow (1200m) may return to the far south later.
The first part of next week will be dominated by a strong southerly airflow that will bring bad weather to the southern side of the Alps, the heaviest precipitation around and to the east of the Monte Rosa region, with a rain/snow limit of around 1500-1800m.
On the northern side of Alps a strong Foehn will bring warmer, drier but at times very windy weather.
Next detailed snow forecast will be on Tuesday 22 November 2016, but see Today in the Alps for daily updates and where is currently open in the Alps
