San Diego, CA – Asian Voices received a Telly Award and FilAm Humanitarian Award this year in recognition of its contribution to preserving and promoting the Asian and Pacific Islander culture and history in the US.
The award winning show premieres its third season today on Cox and Time Warner Cable networks. With an estimated viewership of over 7 million households in Southern California through recently launched YurView national cable network, Asian Voices is the only television show produced in English that features the Asian & Pacific (API) community and culture in the US. The third season will showcase all new stories about API culture, art, lifestyle, entertainment and people.
Executive Producer and host Cathlyn Choi says the format for Asian Voices has also been modified to present the stories in a more intimate and personal manner. "After reviewing our last 2 seasons featuring segment hosts, we have decided to eliminate that interview style in order to present the subjects and stories shared with our viewers in a more direct and intimate way."
Asian Voices is scheduled to air Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6PM on Cox & Time Warner Channel 4 in San Diego. Please check local listings or visit the Asian Voices website at: www.asianvoices.tv for other cities including Orange County and LA.
A special free screening of the show and reception was hosted by Asian Culture and Media Alliance and the Producers at the Shozen Manpo BBQ in San Diego last Thursday, June 22 from 6PM-8PM.
About Asian Culture and Media Alliance or ACMA
ACMA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to provide a voice of unity and empowerment for the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities through the power of Television and Online media. Our main objective is to empower and promote commonalities amongst all Asian and Pacific Islander communities and create awareness of Asian culture, art, events and businesses through media, networking, educational and cultural events.

I remarked in an epigram to a poem in 1996 that the three subjects of poetry are love, death and poetry – Fishing In Gairloch from Looking for Scotland. I have seen this statement made elsewhere recently. We start with Angela Topping's poem about the death of her father, and then we will see where else we arrive in this spectrum.
We have had poems here by earlier poets before, after all, these poems were published long enough ago, and I'm posting two poems by weaver poets from the town of Paisley in the 18th – 19th centuries, because I have promised to give out information relating to both of them.
First, Read Raw Ltd of Paisley are running a new open poetry competition The Robert Tannahill Poetry Prize. it has a substantial prize fund and sections for open English language poetry plus a prize for a poem in Scots. Look it up and send your poems in.
In addition, Claire Casey, also of Paisley, has just published two ebooks, The Weaver Poet: The Songs (Tannahill) and Lines Written on a Summer Evening (Wilson).
Wilson's poem is in flowery literary English, and shows the doubtful habit of some poets of addressing inanimate objects. The poem may be said to be about poetry, since he is asking whether any poets have ever recorded this beautiful vale, and in the slightly comical last line we wonder if he means he is not himself counted as a poet.
Tannahill had a more demotic voice and became very popular with the mill workers. The song I've chosen is in the voice of a woman, and the 'desert isle' mentioned is a Scottish island – heather not palm trees! and it is certainly a love poem.
A single sonnet stanza from Aidan Andrew Dun's Unholyland: The Ramdam is our final poem. Look out for the full three-book epic poem Unholyland: publication imminent from Skyscraper Press. In this poem and this stanza (Jalilah is about to give a rap at a poetry reading) we have the whole gamut.
Angela Topping
I don't understand what death is
that can split us apart like a knife
parting the green flesh of a plum.
We never allowed anything
to come between us before.
There was no reason for us
ever to quarrel. So why allow
this cruel death to sunder us?
I have to find a way back
to connect with you again,
you who have passed through
the skin of the night into my pores,
you who permeate the page
I write on, always looking
over my shoulder for the truth
you hope to read there.
From I Sing of Bricks (Salt 2011)
Alexander Wilson 1766 – 1813
Address to Calder Bank
YE hoary Rocks, ye woody Cliffs, that rise.
Unwieldy, jutting o'er the brawling Brook;
Ye louring steeps, where hid the Adder lies,
Where sleeps the Owl, and screams the sable Rook;
Ye rev'rend trunks, that spread your leafy arms,
To shield the gloom, that darkling dwells below;
Ye nameless flow'rs, ye busy-winged swarms;
Ye birds that warble, and ye streams that flow.–
Say, ye blest scenes of Solitude and Peace,
Strayed e'er a BARD along this hermit shore?
Did e'er his pencil your perfection trace?
Or did his Muse to sing your beauties soar?
Has oft at early Morn and silent Eve,
Responsive echo stole athwart the trees;
While easy laid beside the glitt'ring wave,
The shepherd sung, his list'ning Fair to please?
Alas! methinks the weeping Rocks around,
And the lone Stream, that murmurs far below,
And Trees and Caves, with solemn hollow sound,
Breathe out one mournful, melancholy–"No."
Image: Calder Vale
Fly we to some desert isle
There we'll pass our days together,
Shun the world's derisive smile,
Wand'ring tenants of the heather:
Shelter'd in some lonely glen,
Far remov'd from mortal ken,
Forget the selfish ways o' men,
Nor feel a wish beyond each other.
Though my friends deride me still,
Jamie, I'll disown thee never;
Let them scorn me as they will,
I'll be thine-and thine for ever.
What are a' my kin to me,
A' their pride o' pedigree?
What were life, if wanting thee,
And what were death, if we maun sever!
Aidan Andrew Dun
The Rambam (6, xxii)
One thought never came to Moshe's mind
as the helicopter still hovered,
as the rap began to unwind,
as the dead were discovered
in their hilltop villages lying,
named again and death-defying.
'How could Jalilah, aged sixteen,
transmit, in language raw and keen
her traumatized race-memory;
how could a young girl redefine
the agony of Palestine
so truthfully and so tenderly?'
If Moss had let his thoughts activate
his answer would have been: 'Jah is great!'
from Unholyland: the Rambam, Hesperus Press 2012

These are in reverse chronological order, with the most recent walk at the top .'Local' means the walk is within a few miles of my home in Kensworth, and so most of these could also come under the heading 'Chiltern Hills'.
The distances and times given are usually only very rough estimates!
WARNING: When I originally started writing up these walks, I didn't really intend them to be used as 'route descriptions' for other people to follow. However I am aware that a few people are using them that way - so I should point out that I don't always give enough details in the written descriptions for them to be used that way. Also, unfortunately, I have a dreadful tendency to get 'left' and 'right' confused. So if you want to try any of these walks yourself, I very strongly recommend that you try to follow the route on a map first. The Google Map I provide with each walk may be of some help with navigation. If you do find (or think you find) any mistakes please let me know by email and I will make any corrections as soon as I can (usually I check emails every day).

Have I sold out the counterculture ideals of my younger days?
[pullquote align="left"]
It seems like a lifetime, or at least a Main Era — the kind of peak that never comes again. San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run… but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant… – Hunter S. Thompon
I was born as the counterculture revolution of the 1960's was peaking. Although I was too young to be an active participant in the revolution, I was old enough to remember, and be shaped by the ideas and principles people like my parents held. I can remember my mom and her friends smoking pot and masking the smell with incense. I can remember the sounds of "free love" happening behind the closed door of my mom's bedroom where her and her friends used to go and hang out.
The counterculture revolution sounded like fun, but what was it all about?
[blockquote source="Thompson"]
There was madness in any direction, at any hour. You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning…
And that, I think, was the handle — that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply PREVAIL. There was no point in fighting — on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave…
In it's loosest sense, the 1960's counterculture grew from a number of converging events, issues, circumstances, and technological developments, which served as intellectual and social catalysts for spit-fire change. At the grassroots level, the young people coming out of the beat generation were beginning to get restless with suffocating ways of life and wanted to rebel. Inspired by Ginsberg, and his ilk, those actively pushing the counterculture agenda were trying to achieve a higher state of consciousness.
[blockquote source="Wikipedia"]"Several factors distinguished the counterculture of the 1960s from the authority-opposition movements of previous eras. The post-war "baby boom" resulted in an unprecedented number of young, affluent, and potentially disaffected young people as prospective participants in a rethinking of the direction of American and other democratic societies. As the 1960s progressed, widespread tensions developed in society that tended to flow along generational lines regarding the war in Vietnam, race relations, human sexuality, women's rights, traditional modes of authority, experimentation with psychoactive drugs, and differing interpretations of the American Dream. New cultural forms emerged, including the pop music of the British band the Beatles and the concurrent rise of hippie culture. As the era unfolded, a dynamic youth subculture which emphasized creativity, experimentation and new incarnations of bohemian lifestyles emerged. In addition to the trendsetting Beatles, many other creative artists and thinkers, within and across many disciplines, contributed to the counterculture movement.[/blockquote]
All high ideals that seemed worthy of pursuit, but what happened to that idealism and did the countercultural revolutionaries win or did they sell out to The Man? This the question Gary Trudeau was trying to answer in A Doonesbury Special that aired in 1977.
I watched it for the first time today and it made me think what did happen to the counterculture revolution and what, if any, is the modern day version of the counterculture revolution? Am I a part of it? Or am I a card carrying member of the establishment content with conforming to whims of the herd?
Thinking about now, mainstream culture is dominated by consumerism, reality tv and celebrity worship, and on the political front, those fighting for a better society seem mostly preoccupied with being "green," neutralising the sexes, and demonising the rich. I don't fit the mainstream. I am not even an outsider. I am a casual observer, content to exist inside my self-contained bubble of reality on a planet called Clay.
[blockquote source="Thompson"]
So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high water mark — that place where the wave finally broke, and rolled back.
Maybe it's time to leave my fortress of solitude and rejoin the fray. But who will I be fighting for and against?
The Hunter S. Thompson quotes are from his book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas An excellent read…

Whether we like it or not, the truth is that people are constantly judged by their outward appearance. Even people with the most noble of intentions can do it without fully realizing it, as it just seems to be part of being human. It is not totally surprising, because historically humans relied on appearance to determine the health of others. As society advanced we obviously have better ways of figuring things out, but that primal instinct is still there. Fortunately many parts of beauty are controllable, especially if you visit www.teamsalon.com.sg for all of your hair needs.

Reference Zero Feedback Hybrid Balanced Line Stage
Magnetic is a newest reference point line stage made by NAT standards – transformer coupled, class A with zero feedback circuit configuration. Special selected vacuum tube with fet is used – represent high technology in both industrial tube and solid state manufacturing.
Both packs of active devices are of high grade and have high reliability.
Hand crafted wide-bandwidth output transformer (custom designed for NAT ) is used in this unit.
Open bandwidth is from 1Hz – 400.000Hz. That is extremely excellent for high direct current single ended transformer coupled operation mode. Even the square wave response is perfect that indicate extremely quality amplification. Output has separate selectable tap for single ended and balanced operation!
By specific technical approach mention output amorphous core transformer in combination with special selected fets and vacuum tube support may drive easy any type of interconnect even very long length cable.
Zero feedback concept is well known also as the best solution for purity of sound reproduction without negative influence from feedback circuit. Also there is no any capacitor on direct or indirect signal path.
Attenuation is based on high reliability relay (pure silver with gold plated contacts) network that is computer controlled – there is 96 position of attenuation and always is only one (single) laboratory grade resistor on signal path.
Magnetic is equipped with remote control unit made from solid block of aluminum.
Power supply section also speak for itself. High capacity (approx. 500.000 uF of capacitance) supply is used as the best solution for low voltage power supply section. There is energy more then 550 joules, higher then in most power amplifier!
It is true dual mono construction – totally separate one channel from another.
There is separate voltage regulators also for all additional (for non signal path) stages.
On such a way sound quality is totally independent from line voltage instability and influence of wide variety noise that could be coupled across.
There is a built-in measurement for total hours of preamplifier accumulated work (tube duration) that is presented by led diodes universal meter (led indicator on front panel).
Quality of electronic material that is used inside Magnetic is on high level – special selected fet by industrial standard , 0.1% Vishay resistors, high quality transformer core, electrolytic capacitors of very high capacitance, gold plated teflon isolated connectors, pure silver input wiring…
Line stage works properly at all world wide AC line voltage from 100 – 250 VAC, 50-60Hz (set in factory).

Creating a collection of any sort is hard work on your bank balance. Getting enough stuff together to be worthy of the title alone can be eye-watering when looking at your financial accounts, but none more so than when women invest in makeup. It's like the holy grail that just keeps on giving. There is always something new on the market, a magical new product that will help you on your way to looking divine and heavenly and everything you have ever dreamed of. However, there are certain things that you can do to keep both your arrangement of makeup and your bank balance levels up…
Look for Freebies
There are always samples available for many beauty products that are for sale currently or are just being tested out – just like these Covergirl Samples from samplestuff.com. Most of the time you don't have to do much in return for them apart from giving your honest feedback on the products, so it's a win-win situation – you get to add a little to your makeup collection and the company benefits from your feedback and (hopefully) your custom.
Discontinued Products
Products that have been discontinued or don't sell well are usually sold off at a much cheaper price. If you look online on sites such as eBay, there are quite often an array of items available which are at a very reasonable price. You may be able to find them in a bargain bucket at your local drugstore if you're not keen on getting them online; the problem with purchasing any beauty products off of the net is that you can never accurately colour match them with your skin tone. However, if you are already familiar with the brand and make of the product, then this should be a relatively simple and effective process for you.
There are so many makeup communities online nowadays that do swaps of products. If you have two of a product or have barely used something such as an eyeshadow palette, there will always be someone out there willing to take it off your hands and give you something else in return. What is your trash is another person's treasure, and it's very much vice versa in this situation! There will also be people offering out their unused makeup for free or possibly for a donation to a charity of their choice, but this can be rare – hop on it while the going is good and keep an eye out for chances like this.
Make Do and Mend
If you have products which are nearing their end, have a look around to see what can be made into something else. It sounds strange, but certain eyeshadow combinations can be put together to make a great highlighter, and some makeups have multiple uses (e.g. both a cheek and lip tint). Making the most of what you've got and transforming it into something else is the way forward in making it seem like you've got an extensive collection but sticking to what you know, love and can afford.

A Downtown Buffalo Walking Tour departs the Hyatt Regency. Highlights will include, among other sites, "the World's largest Office building," Ellicott Square (D.H. Burnham & Co., c. 1896); St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral (Richard Upjohn, c. 1849-51); the elaborately decorated Art Deco City Hall (Dietel & Wade, c. 1931); and Louis Sullivan's skyscraper masterwork Guaranty Building (c. 1896).

The Armory's Regimental Parlor, where you'll enjoy lunch and the Annual Meeting, is a perfectly Victorian setting. After the meeting, we'll board buses to proceed to two of Buffalo's most walkable and architecturally interesting residential neighborhoods, Linwood and Allentown, which will be toured on foot. The Linwood district offers a wonderful variety of homes built by Buffalo's mercantile class, including many in the Shingle Style. Allentown is a diverse collection of middle class homes built during the 1850-1900 period including Italianate, Stick and Second Empire styles. Some interiors will be included. Then, on to the Bijou Grille for cocktails and dinner.

Friday, May 23, 2003 Tours of Buffalo's Southtowns, South Park, Our Lady of Victory National Basilica, Roosevelt Inaugural Site, Darwin Martin House.
Buses depart from Hyatt Regency on a tour of Buffalo's Southtowns. Highlights will include South Park, a prime example of the outstanding park system Frederick Law Olmsted designed for Buffalo as a highlight of the American Romantic landscape movement; and a visit inside Our Lady of Victory National Basilica, the elaborately Baroque reminder of the humanitarian good works of its builder, Father Nelson Baker (currently under Papal consideration for sainthood). Next, our group will visit the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site, location of one of the very few Presidential inaugurations held outside Washington, DC, where President Roosevelt was sworn in after the 1901 assassination of his predecessor President William McKinley. We'll have the opportunity to tour this delightful house museum operated today by the National Park Service and enjoy a Victorian-style luncheon/Tea. Following lunch, we'll board the buses and proceed to Darwin Martin House for a tour. Currently undergoing extensive restoration, the Darwin Martin House and Complex is considered the masterwork of architect Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie House designs. We'll experience the restoration work in progress at this high-priority tourism investment for Buffalo and New York State.
We will return to the Hyatt Regency around 3:45 for some free time to explore the town and perhaps visit some out of the way antique shops.
6:00 pm Buses depart Hyatt Regency for Buffalo's "High Renaissance style palace," The 20th Century Club (Green & Wicks, c. 1896), where neoclassical wall friezes and muted Victorian colors will set the scene for a delightful cocktail reception. Dressy attire suggested but not required. Buses will return you to the Hyatt Regency by 8:15 pm and dinner will be on your own (there are a number of restaurants within walking distance of the hotel).
Saturday, May 24, 2003

10:30 am Buses will depart the Hyatt Regency and will arrive in the charmingly eclectic, picturesque village of East Aurora, home of Elbert Hubbard and the American Arts and Crafts Roycroft Movement, U.S. President Millard Fillmore, and today's toy-making giant Fisher Price. After lunch, we will tour several sites where Roycroft guildmember artisans demonstrate their crafts; visit Vidler's 5 & 10, a real-life shopping anachronism; the house-museums of both Fillmore and Hubbard, and still have time to wander the shops and visit the tea rooms of Main Street East Aurora.
6 pm Tour ends at the beautifully restored Roycroft Inn to refresh yourself and enjoy the Closing Banquet.
Sunday, May 25, 2003
Buses depart Hyatt Regency Hotel for a day-long tour of Chautauqua Institution, the renowned intellectual and arts community founded as a religious "camp meeting" in 1874. The Chautauqua Institution is a National Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1989. Positioned grandly on the shore of beautiful Chautauqua Lake, there are hundreds of 2-, 3-, and 4-story Victorian Gothic cottages and hostelries along narrow winding streets. Luncheon will take place at the second empire style 1881 Athenaeum Hotel. Dinner is on your own.
Monday, May 26, 2003
Spend Memorial Day exploring "The Young Lion of the West" -- Rochester, NY -- presented by the Landmark Society of Western New York.
8:00 am Depart Hyatt Regency Hotel for Rochester. We'll have a brief rest stop, welcome and overview of the day upon arrival at The Landmark Society's 1850s headquarters. The Landmark Society is one of the oldest preservation organizations in the U.S. and predates the National Trust for Historic Preservation. You will then re-board the bus to tour some of Rochester's neighborhoods and preservation districts. Richard Reisem, author of Mount Hope: America's First Municipal Victorian Cemetery, will tour us through the beautiful Mt. Hope Cemetery. Then we'll stroll through historic neighborhoods to Ellwanger Garden, a gem of a perennial garden continuously cultivated since 1867 (and in late May expected to be in peak bloom!). The bus will return to the Landmark Society for a hearty Memorial Day-inspired lunch, time to relax and to browse the heritage gift items in the Society's Shop.
The afternoon includes a visit to the Campbell-Whittlesey House Museum (c. 1836), known as "the house the Erie Canal built" and one of the finest Greek Revival restorations in the U.S. After a drive through several of the city's urban preservation districts, we'll arrive at George Eastman House, the National Historic Landmark mansion home of the photographic innovator. There will be time to both tour the mansion and visit the adjacent International Museum of Photography. An elegant Tea will be served with Victorian flair at The Cafe at the Eastman House to round out a wonderful day.
5:00 pm Board the bus to return to Buffalo and Hyatt Regency.

Not many people may be comfortable captaining their own boat, but for the more adventurous out there, Dutch startup Barqo offers a peer-to-peer rental platform.
Barqo's website is available in Dutch and English, particularly convenient for international users. In order to get a feel for the platform, I did a search for Amsterdam and found that they offer a pretty simple search tool, with users able to type in a destination, dates, and capacity in order to bring up listings. What is helpful is that the site overlays clickable prices on Google Maps, so that you quickly find the ideal option for your destination. Clicking upon a profile, I found that boat-owners list the name of the craft, the model, and build-year, as well as indicate whether or not driving it requires a license and the nature of their cancellation policy. Profiles also sometimes offer a biography for the boat-owner, as well as reviews. Prices vary wildly, with some craft available for less than 100 Euro, while others going for several thousand.
Like many other marketplaces, Barqo has opted for a commission-based monetization model, taking a 15% cut on each transaction that they process.
Barqo already claims 2,500 users and 5,000 boats, but the service did not officially launch until this week. For the moment, they are focused on their native Dutch market, but have an eye towards international expansion in 2017 (though they already provide listings from around the globe), particularly in northern Europe. They have also recently expanded their team.
In terms of funding, the team at Barqo initially turned to family and friends in order to get the business going, taking in 20,000 Euro worth of convertible notes. They have since followed that up with 50,000 Euro from an undisclosed angel and then another 500,000 Euro from other undisclosed angels.

June is a month of many celebrations!
It is Black Music Month. It is Caribbean-American Heritage Month. It is LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) Pride Month. And, Puerto Rican Pride Day is also celebrated across New York City in the month of June!
It's always interesting to learn how these things get started: Black Music Month began in 1979, when music industry insiders Ken Gamble, Ed Wright and Dyana Williams developed the idea to set aside a month dedicated to celebrating the impact of African American music. President Jimmy Carter held the first Black Music Month reception on June 7, 1979. The commemoration has since grown to epic proportions, with events and festivals held annually throughout the country. Some of our community's 2015 highlights include a Harlem Arts Alliance art exhibition at the Harlem Hospital Mural Pavilion through June 28th. Read more of the compelling story about how this month got started HERE.
Caribbean-American Heritage Month has been recognized nationally since 2006. In New York, the City's Comptroller, Scott Stringer, the Caribbean American Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Macy's, Carib News, and the Neighborhood Technical Assistance Clinic are among the various institutions and organizations staging special events that draw attention to the contributions of Caribbean-Americans to the country's prosperity. The Caribbean Tourism Organization (CTO) organized Caribbean Week, NY 2015, from June 1-7, which included a week of festivities celebrating Caribbean people, the Diaspora, its arts, culture and businesses. Here in Harlem, we can look to our own Caribbean Cultural Center for celebration and inspiration this month and beyond; The Schomburg will also host Caribbean Flow Friday on June 19th. Visit www.caribbeanamericanmonth.org for more information on Caribbean-American Heritage Month and its history.
A month after the Stonewall Riots in June 1969, five hundred peaceful protestors continued the rally; these actions were the impetus for organizing LGBT Pride marches on a much larger scale. Forty-six years later, the New York City LGBT Pride Rally continues to serve, and has grown into the city's most vibrant, colorful and festive celebration. This year's Pride Week theme, "Complete the Dream", draws from the nation's most recent strides in marriage equality. Harlem Pride Day takes place in Jackie Robinson park on Saturday, June 27th. The free festival includes artists, food, music, entertainment, vendors and more, all day, from noon to 6pm. Visit nycgo.com/pride for a complete listing of Pride Month activities around the city.
The Puerto Rican Day Parade remains one of New York City's most spirited and well-attended parades; nearly two-million spectators, annually, makes it one of the largest outdoor events in the United States. Launched in 1958, the parade became a national corporation in 1995. It celebrates Puerto Rican heritage and culture, attracts many celebrities and politicians, and has expanded to include events throughout the city for the entire weekend. Although, the parade marches along Fifth Avenue from 44th to 86th Streets, the mere notion of it keeps East Harlem and Washington Heights hopping for days in advance. In fact, part of the Parade tradition has included the the 116th Street Festival in East Harlem for the past 30 years. The Festival returned on Saturday, June 13th to reclaim its title as the biggest Latino-themed block party in the country! The Puerto Rican Day Parade takes place Sunday, June 14, 2015.
Celebrate and Enjoy!

Question about Singer 7436 - INGENUITY
I made buttonholes one time and it worked perfectly. Following the exact same steps, all I get is a beep from the computer and it will not sew. Take it off buttonhole stitch and it works fine. Please help.
Posted by preaus on
I have found that the problem lies with the button hole pull down. Either it is too far down, or too far up. The problem that I have with it now is that it will never sew the button holes consistantly. I will set it where the button hole needs to be, and it will then proceed to place it where it wants to. Any help on this problem?

Re your buttonhole foot - please note the following:
- This foot comes with a metal underplate.
- Place the fabric between the foot and the underplate.
- I am assuming that you have the buttonhole lever pulled down.
-Note: The silver coloured buttonhole lever is directly behind the needle threader. Pull it all the way down.
-When u have all the above in place, start the buttonhole. When it finishes the first side, gently push the foot back, so it reverses. I know this sounds strange, but if you have slightly bent the underplate you will need to do this.
- The directions are in the manual on page 60.

Coleman Cemetery
Penola, Caroline County, Virginia
20608 Penola Road, Penola VA
Lat: 37° 58' 32"N, Lon: 77° 24' 01"W
Contributed by Anne Braun, Sep 12, 2010, last edited Sep 20, 2010 [email@example.com]. Total records = 6.
From Penola, go 2 miles northwest/west on Penola Road (Route 601) until you reach 20608 Penola Road. Turn onto dirt road and go south for .15 miles. The cemetery is east of the road about 40 yards.
This is a small family cemetery that is in fair condition. There are two missing headstones. One headstone that I saw was broken into three pieces and was partially buried. I also found one footstone with only initials on it. I compare my findings with a book called "Cemeteries of Caroline County Virginia Volume 2" which was published in 1995. The burials occurred between 1856 and 1869.
I walked this cemetery on Sep 11, 2010.

The school day at Long Close begins at 07.30, where pupils have the chance to start their day in our Early Riser's Breakfast Club.
For our younger children, the last lesson of the day ends at 15.30, while our older ones finish at 16.00, but many choose to stay for longer to have a snack, participate in school clubs, take advantage of supervised homework sessions, or simply enjoy our Wrap Around Care which extends all the way through to 18.30. It's a time of day that our children enjoy immensely and that makes it so much easier for parents to balance out the demands of work and family life.
The after-school clubs and activities on offer at Long Close are a valued and vital part of the individualised education we offer. Our aim is to give each of our pupils the chance to discover and follow their own particular skills and interests. That way they can establish a sense of their own identity, which we believe is a crucial step towards realising their potential and learning how to lead a rich, fulfilled life.
Every term we aim to provide a new, engaging and varied mix of activities, so that on any given day our pupils could be learning to act, dance, debate, explore the natural world, carry out experiments, play games of strategy and take part in all kinds of sport – from rugby to golf, tennis to rounders, judo to cricket. But be warned – these clubs are extremely popular so make sure you fill out and return the online application forms as quickly as possible.

South Asia Economic Conclave (SAEC) as a joint initiative by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), World Bank Group, national chambers of commerce of member countries and similar association was held on 28 – 30 September 2015 in New Delhi, India.
The objective of this forum was to stimulate informed dialogue between the private sector and governments to promote regional trade and investment, which would in turn help catalyze higher growth and new job opportunities for all countries in South Asia.
ACCI extended its fully support to CCI in organizing SAEC and introduced representatives from Afghan government and private sector to attend the panel discussions and share out their commitments, experiences and proposals toward the deeper regional economic integration in South Asia.
Afghan delegation led by Mr. Abdul Qadir Bahman, Deputy CEO of ACCI and in composition of Mr. Abdul Wassay Haqiqi, Senior Advisor to ACCI, Mrs. Habiba Sadeqi, President of Peace Through Business Network (a Female Entrepreneurs Association), Mr. Zabihullah Ziarmal, CEO of CEFE Group, Mr. Lutfullah Najafizada, Director in Tolo News attended the SAEC.
South Asia is one of the least integrated regions of the world. The efforts to build an effective economic cooperation model have been going on ever since the establishment of SAARC in 1985. However, in recent years there has been a greater emphasis on achieving the deeper regional economic integration. Both the governments and businesses in South Asia have started recognizing the benefits of greater economic cooperation in the region, especially in light of the global slowdown. They are trying to improve their business environments, facilitate cross-border trade and regional economic relations. The most noteworthy development is the rising interest of the private sector, which was never so strong and explicit.

Surprise! I'm writing this post from Pennsylvania. Yep! I decided to come up for the weekend and of course my Mac is with me. I have an Imac already here but, I have gotten so use to the larger monitor I would rather bring this one with me. Whenever I come back home, I face the raising of the heat, the turning on of the water, the over filled mail box (they won't forward my mail anymore) and the perplexing questions. Which house has which groceries. Did I just buy laundry detergent in New York or PA? I know I just bought a jar of peanut butter, "oh" that was New York. Is the Mojito mix in this freezer or the other? (I prefer wine over any other alcoholic beverage, my son bought me some Mojito mix and I thought I would give it a try.) Uh Oh! Where's the limes? Well, you get the idea. To the rescue; a box of Rice Krispies. Both houses have a box of Rice Krispies always! Rice Kripsies are one of my I don't want to be all warm and cozy because I have work to do, comfy food. Oh admit it, we all have them. So after a six hour ride I arrived safely in PA. I made my usual stop at the neighborhood Uni-Mart (they don't have delis here:( for the bare necessities, milk, bread, eggs, and bananas. Well today anyway. I don't really usually buy bananas at Uni-Mart. They just looked so inviting and after the drive, they somehow brought out the urge for Rice Krispies, ice cold Pennsylvania milk, (sorry New York, milk is creamier in PA, really it is) topped with thinly sliced banana. BTW, I had my first bowl before I even crawled under the house to turn the water on. I'm eating the second bowl "as we speak" want some? Perhaps, the irresistible urge came over me because, I spent part of the time driving up here trying to figure out how to make introduce the banana.
Thank goodness, Thomas Johnson didn't have the same problem. He just hung a bunch of bananas in his shop window for all of Snow Hill, Britain to see. For the curious British on lookers, this was the first time bananas were available for purchase by them. Truth be told, at least a finger of credit should go to Alexander the Great. After Alexander the Great ate a banana in India, liked it and introduced it to the wider world it travelled to the Middle East, where it acquired its current name from the Arabic banan, or finger, and from there Arab traders took it to Africa, where the Portuguese transported it to the Caribbean and Latin America.
The banana is one of the oldest foods known to man. In 327 B.C the armies of Alexander the Great found the fruit growing in abundance in the valley of the Indus in southeaster Asia. The story of the spread of its use from Asia to Africa and from Africa to the Americas is full of historic interest. With the development of facilities for the distribution of this tropical fruit in the markets of North America and Europe has come a greater appreciation of its food value.
Don't you just love it when you can practically trace the fingerprints? It's one of the reasons why I collect cookbooks. You see, the cite above is from a small booklet titled A Study of the Banana; Its every-day use and Food Value. In tiny print it has Student Manual. The booklet was published by the Home Economics Department of The United Fruit Company, Pier 3, North River, New York, NY. (fourth ed. 1940)
The banana has an extensive trade history beginning with the founding of the United Fruit Company (now Chiquita) at the end of the nineteenth century. For much of the 20th century, bananas and coffee dominated the export economies of Central America. In the 1930s, bananas and coffee made up as much as 75% of the region's exports. As late as 1960, the two crops accounted for 67% of the exports from the region. Though the two were grown in similar regions, they tended not to be distributed together. The United Fruit Company based its business almost entirely on the banana trade, as the coffee trade proved too difficult for it to control. wiki
Now, according to what I could find out from various places on the internet, (I've provided a few of them below) the British were already familiar with bananas as bonana or bananero which is a form of Spanish for "banana tree." I suppose it would be only natural for Johnson to display them and offer them for sale. He had provided a woodcut of the fruit in his enlarged and amended version of the 1633 edition of [John] Gerard's Herball (1597) The Herball or Generall Historie of Plantes Even more exciting is he documented it!
Banana/Plantain pages 1514-1517.
"Musa fructus. Of Adams Apple tree, or the West-Indian Plantaine.
...Aprill 10. 1633. my much honored friend... gaue me a plant he receiued from the Bermuda's... The fruit which I receiued was not ripe, but greene, each of them was about the bignesse of a large Beane... This stalke with the fruit thereon I hanged vp in my shop, where it became ripe about the beginning of May, and lasted vntil Iune: the pulp or meat was very soft and tender, and it did eate somewhat like a Muske-Melon...
The fruit hereof yeeldeth but little nourishment: it is good for the heate of the breast, lungs, and bladder: it stoppeth the liuer, and hurteth the stomacke if too much of it be eaten, and procureth loosenesse in the belly: whereupon it is requisit for such as are of a cold constitution, in the eating thereof to put vnto it a little Ginger or other spice." source
There's a wonderful article which was written by Jules Janick in 2002 at Purdue University. The lecture titled The History of Horticulture speaks to the Horticulture, Politics, and World Affairs: Bananas and the Banana Republics (there is also an image of Johnson's woodcut) Below is an excerpt from the lecture:
The history of the banana industry began in Latin America during the last half of the 19th century. Captain Lorenzo D. Baker and Minor C. Keith introduced the first bananas to Boston and the Northeast between 1870 and 1889. The fruit was an immediate success and American entrepreneurs sought to control both banana production and trade. The subsequent exploits of North American sea captains, railroad builders, and adventurers became the precursors and then the founders of the United Fruit Company in 1899, a company that became a plantation and shipping monopoly. These efforts were to make the banana one of the first fresh foods to be internationally commercialized...The early years of the industry were marked by the aggressive action of the United Fruit Company in the unstable frontier environment of Central America. The industry was unique because no other perishable produce was carried such a long distance to market, and was available without regard to season. The industrial and market structure was called "industrial colonialism" and became the subject of constant and bitter controversy. The United Fruit Company was accused, often justifiably, of monopoly exploitation, political manipulation, abuse of native labor, disregard for human hardships, and peremptory management tactics...
Thomas Johnson, has been called "The Father of British Field Botany" he has been describe as a "learned, amiable, brave man." Unfortunately, it has been difficult for biographers to record the time line of his life especially since the name Thomas Johnson is a popular name. As a matter of fact, Wikipedia notes, "There were two Thomas Johnsons who were both botanists." I did find a minimum amount of information about him at the website cited below. #1 in resources
Johnson was an interesting figure, highly esteemed as a herbalist and physician, who died as a result of wounds he received during the siege of Basing House during the Civil War...A recent find by archaeologists excavating a pit in London makes in intriguing addendum to Johnson's commercialising of the banana. A banana skin, dated at about 1500 was unearthed, tossed into what seems to have been a fish pond. The date probably means it came from West Africa, as the plant was only being introduced into the Caribbean at that time. Ed Note: see article Mystery of Tudor Banana
The following banana recipe is from a book titled Bull Cook & Authentic Historical Recipes & Practices (1969) by George & Berthe Herter. First, a bit of history on the recipe from the book.
Alexander the Great in his conquests in India saw banana trees for the first time. Bananas were called "pala" in India and still are around Malabar. He had bananas prepared for him with the following recipe and it is, I believe, the first banana recipe ever invented.
The Recipe: Take a bowl of fresh whole milk. Add one level tablespoon of honey. Stir the honey into the milk until it is dissolved. This takes quite a bit of stirring as honey does not dissolve easily. Then slice a banana into the honey-flavored milk and eat at once. This recipe makes fabulously good eating.
"Banana cake recipes did not become popular in homes until the end of the 19th century. Before this time a combination of unreliable shipping methods and a lack of refrigeration prevented the widespread use of bananas in home cooking. Only food stores in the major cities had access to bananas on a regular basis...Banana cakes had become common by the 1920s, and they became especially popular in the 1930s when enterprising grocers often provided their customers with free banana cake recipes in an attempt to sell the overripe bananas. Sometimes they could hardly keep up with the demand."classic banana cake recipes
Well, I finished my bowl of Rice Krispies quite a while ago. So what's my next best favorite banana dish? Bananas' Foster, of course. Simply Delicious. Banana flambé is a mouth watering dessert made from caramelized bananas and creamy vanilla ice cream. The sauce that tops it is made from butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, dark rum, and banana liqueur. The butter, sugar and bananas are cooked, and then the alcohol is added and ignited. The bananas and sauce are then served over the ice cream. The dramatic presentation of the dish is often served tableside.
In 1951, Chef Paul created Bananas Foster. The scrumptious dessert was named for Richard Foster, who, as chairman, served with Owen on the New Orleans Crime Commission, a civic effort to clean up the French Quarter. Richard Foster, owner of the Foster Awning Company, was a frequent customer of Brennan's and a very good friend of Owen. the recipe
The scanned recipes below are for bananas au gratin, banana rice savory, vegetable plate with bananas, and banana meat loaf. Hey, I don't make this stuff up!

Coach Lee Etzler commented, "I'm really proud of them with their effort. You know the last few seasons we have had some really good defenses, we take pride in it and the way the kids played tonight shows that."
The Churubusco defense was put to the test early as the Eagles fumbled the first snap from scrimmage. With Fremont deep in Eagle teritory, on the twenty the defense responded holding Fremont to just six yards on three plays forcing them to try a field goal. After a penalty backed them up Fremont missed the 40-yard field goal attempt.
Busco would go three and out on their next offensive possession.
The Eagle defense held Fremont in check the rest of the half. They surrendered just one first down on their next four series with the other three series being three and out for Fremont.
On Churubusco's next possession they would begin on their own 25 yard line. Following a motion pentality, Mathewson ran for nine yards. On the next play Kyle Monk ran right and pitched to Shawn McCoy and McCoy took the ball down to the Fremont 44 yard line, a 27 yard gain for the Eagles. Monk ran the sweep for nine yards. Mathewson bulled his way up the middle for a pair of five yard gains. A holding pentality set Busco back to the 37 yard line. Mathewson took the ball, ran left, hit the open hole, kicked it to the outside, shifted to high gear and nobody was going to catch the Busco fullback. Jordan Hamilton came on to kick the extra point but was wide left on his attempt.
"He is probably the fastest kid that I have coached here at Churubusco," stated Coach Lee Etzler. "Kyle is still learning the position, and this was his first game playing at fullback. He missed a couple of holes early. Kyle will get a better feel as the season progresses."
On the Eagles' next position Kyle Monk hit Jordan Hamilton instride for an 82 yard touchdown. Busco decided to go for the two point conversion. Monk dropped back and found a diving Layne Fulk for the two points.
Busco shut down Fremont again pushing them back. Jordan Turner sacked Nick Herndon for an 11 yard loss, all the way back to the five yard line.
The Eagles had two more possessions in the first half, both of them coming up short of a score. A dropped pass in the end zone on fourth down ended one series. In the other one Monk scrambled down the side lines as time ran out in the half.
Rain moved in at halftime and settled in for most of the third quarter. Fremont came out stunning the Eagle defense for two quick first downs, moving into Eagle territory for the first time since their first possession. The Busco defense adjusted and shut down Fremont forcing them to punt.
The Eagles moved the ball against the Fremont defense, but penalties stalled their drive. Two more three and outs by the Fremont offense kept their tired defense on the field most of the second half.
The Eagles continued to chew up yardage. Back-up fullback Bryce Shively, entered the game in the fourth quarter, gaining 26 yards on four carries.
"I didn't know what to expect from us up front, and I thought we played very physical up front. Our offensive line was able to out preform the much bigger Fremont defense, creating holes for our backs to run through," explained Coach Etzler. " But we kept shooting ourselves in the foot with pentalites and fumbles."
Fremont didn't quit, they connected for a 42 yard pass play, down to the Eagles' 30 yard line with three minutes remaining. The drive was halted by the Eagle defense. McCoy forced a fumble that was recovered by Jordan Nicodemus.
The offense ran out the clock bringing home a 14-0 victory.

Amy Winehouse cold-shoulders boxing event for hubbyDecember 9th, 2007 - 2:04 pm ICT by admin
Washington, Dec 9 (ANI): Soul singer Amy Winehouse has cancelled her plans of seeing one of the biggest events in the history of British boxing, so that she can stay close to her imprisoned hubby Blake Fielder-Civil.
Sources revealed that 24-year-old singer had a ringside seat to see the tussle between unbeatable boxers Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather Jr. at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas,
But the singer opted to remain in London to be near Blake.
"Her, Blake and a few friends had ringside tickets. She's sad to miss it but wants to stay in the U.K. for Blake," Contactmusic quoted a source, as telling the Daily Mirror.
Fielder-Civil was arrested and imprisoned earlier this month (Nov07) on suspicion of perverting the course of justice in relation to a charge of alleged assault on a bartender in June 2007. (ANI)

Child Sex Tourism prevention trainingIn a previous post I discussed some of the challenges we were facing in designing a training module for raising general awareness about Child Sex Tourism.
Since my last posting we've spent a lot of time discussing the situation and complication that the training needs to address before listing out possible answers that the training would deliver.
We then took all of that input and created the first mind map of the training module. I just thought I'd share it with everyone, and I'd welcome input on how it can be improved to make the training module as impactful and engaging as it can possibly be.
Tourism at its highest level is a supply and demand business. The hoteliers, airlines, and other tourist industries meet the demand of the tourists that use their services. Therefore, one of the key audiences we wish to target with this training module is General Tourists/Travellers.
In training general travellers, we seek to educate them about the Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children (CSEC), the causes and consequences, and ask them to be a responsible traveller whilst they are on vacation. As a responsible traveller we would ask them to observe and take action if they any instances of child sex tourism whilst in their destination country as well as obviously not getting involved themselves.
Our desired behavioural change from this module would be that the person would be more likely to report an issue to the authorities if they observed it in the destination country. Additionally, we hope that the information we give them may also reduce the chance of them getting involved.
- There are very limited set do's and don'ts lists with child sex tourism. In this training we can demonstrate red flags/items to watch out for, but child sex tourism has too many faces to cover in a single module.
- Child Sex tourism is an emotive, challenging subject. Many people have difficulty in accepting that such a thing can even happen.
- We envisaged the traveller taking this training course as part of their pre-holiday preparation. How do we deliver training on such an emotive, difficult subject whilst not becoming overly negative? (A negative theme throughout the training is unlikely to engage a holiday maker about to make the trip of their dreams).
- The module aims to raise the traveller's awareness about the issue, but also present them from accidentally/inadvertently becoming part of the problem. A too-common scenario would be for a single holiday maker to meet a girl/boy in a bar and then find out afterwards that they were in fact under-age. Suggesting to a tourist before they go on holiday that they could end up in a child sex scenario will have to be handled incredibly delicately to reduce the risk of offence.
- Our core target audience for this prevention message would be males between the ages of 18 & 34. Statistically they are the hardest group of individuals to meet with any presentation/training message – how do we engage them?
Questions we seek to answer
- How do we target training to this audience that raises their awareness of child sex tourism in an engaging way?
- What idea or theme could be incorporated into the design of the training that encourages people to repeat/discuss/share the training with others?
- How do we focus the training to minimise the training time required without diluting the message?
- How do we encourage people to share/socialise/discuss the training, and The Code's work with others (giving it the viral factor)?
- What can we do to maximise the chance that this training stands the best chance of changing the user's behaviour/attitude?
