That lucky Ohio family that found some very rare and very valuable baseball cards in granddad's attic has sold part of the treasure for more than $566,000.
We posted about the discovery back in July. Today, The Toledo Blade updated with news of the first sale.
According to the Blade:
"In a brisk online and live auction at the National Sports Collectors Convention in Baltimore, the best of a pristine collection filled with turn-of-the-century stars such as Honus Wagner and Cy Young fetched a combined $566,132. ...
"Family member Karla Hench, who helped find the cards, said the cards brought 'fantastic prices and we're very excited that we can all share in this find. It's like a gift from our grandfather to keep passing on.' "
Thirty-seven of the 700 or so cards have been sold so far. By the time they're all sold, experts say, Hench and 19 relatives will likely have collected about $3 million (the auction house will get a fee, of course).

WOULD YOU BOARD flight 666 to HEL on Friday the 13th?
For superstitious travelers, that might be tempting fate. But Finnair passengers on AY666 to Helsinki — which has the 3 letter designation HEL — don't seem too bothered. Today's flight is almost full.
"It has been quite a joke among the pilots" said veteran Finnair pilot Juha-Pekka Keidasto, who will fly the Airbus A320 from Copenhagen to Helsinki. "I'm not a superstitious man. It's only a coincidence for me."
The daily flight AY666 from Copenhagen to Helsinki falls on Friday the 13th twice in 2013. Friday the 13th is considered bad luck in many countries and the number 666 also has strong negative biblical associations.
Some airlines, like Scandinavian Airlines, take these fears seriously and don't have a row 13 on board. However, the negative connotations are a relatively new phenomenon for northern Europeans, and Finnair and other regional carriers like Norwegian and Estonian Air keep row 13.
"Less than 100 years ago, the number 13 did not have this sinister meaning; it's quite recent in the north," said Ulo Valk, professor of comparative folklore at the University of Tartu in Estonia.
"There are 12 hours, 12 months and in Christianity 12 apostles and this is a divine number. Add one more and it brings in a certain element of chaos," he said.
But passengers on flight 666 to HEL should have a calm flight over the Baltic at this time of year.
"It's hopefully smooth skies" says Keidasto. "And if there's some passenger who is anxious about this 666 our cabin crew is always happy to help them."

int XReadBitmapFileData(filename, width_return, height_return, data_return,
x_hot_return, y_hot_return)
char *filename;
unsigned int *width_return, *height_return;
unsigned char *data_return;
int *x_hot_return, *y_hot_return;
int XWriteBitmapFile(display, filename, bitmap, width, height, x_hot,
Display *display;
char *filename;
Pixmap bitmap;
unsigned int width, height;
int x_hot, y_hot;
Pixmap XCreatePixmapFromBitmapData(display, d, data, width, height, fg,
bg, depth)
Display *display;
Drawable d;
char *data;
unsigned int width, height;
unsigned long fg, bg;
unsigned int depth;
Pixmap XCreateBitmapFromData(display, d, data, width, height)
Display *display;
Drawable d;
char *data;
unsigned int width, height;
XReadBitmapFile returns the bitmap's height and width, as read from the file, to width_return and height_return. It then creates a pixmap of the appropriate size, reads the bitmap data from the file into the pixmap, and assigns the pixmap to the caller's variable bitmap. The caller must free the bitmap using XFreePixmap when finished. If name_x_hot and name_y_hot exist, XReadBitmapFile returns them to x_hot_return and y_hot_return; otherwise, it returns -1,-1.
XReadBitmapFile can generate BadAlloc and BadDrawable errors.
The XReadBitmapFileData function reads in a file containing a bitmap, in the same manner as XReadBitmapFile, but returns the data directly rather than creating a pixmap in the server. The bitmap data is returned in data_return; the client must free this storage when finished with it by calling XFree. The status and other return values are the same as for XReadBitmapFile.
The XWriteBitmapFile function writes a bitmap out to a file in the X Version 11 format. The name used in the output file is derived from the file name by deleting the directory prefix. The file is written in the encoding of the current locale. If the file cannot be opened for writing, it returns BitmapOpenFailed. If insufficient memory is allocated, XWriteBitmapFile returns BitmapNoMemory; otherwise, on no error, it returns BitmapSuccess. If x_hot and y_hot are not -1, -1, XWriteBitmapFile writes them out as the hotspot coordinates for the bitmap.
XWriteBitmapFile can generate BadDrawable and BadMatch errors.
The XCreatePixmapFromBitmapData function creates a pixmap of the given depth and then does a bitmap-format XPutImage of the data into it. The depth must be supported by the screen of the specified drawable, or a BadMatch error results.
XCreatePixmapFromBitmapData can generate BadAlloc and BadMatch errors.
The XCreateBitmapFromData function allows you to include in your C program (using #include) a bitmap file that was written out by XWriteBitmapFile (X version 11 format only) without reading in the bitmap file. The following example creates a gray bitmap:
#include "gray.bitmap" Pixmap bitmap; bitmap = XCreateBitmapFromData(display, window, gray_bits, gray_width, gray_height);
If insufficient working storage was allocated, XCreateBitmapFromData returns None. It is your responsibility to free the bitmap using XFreePixmap when finished.
XCreateBitmapFromData can generate a BadAlloc error.

Overview and History
Sao Paulo is the biggest city both in Brazil and the southern hemisphere, even bigger than Rio. It's mega-sprawling like Los Angeles. By some estimates Sao Paulo has 27 million people, surpassed only by Tokyo. If Godzilla would only win for once, Sao Paulo might become THE biggest city. Whoa!
Sao Paulo is the financial center of South America, and in turn its center is the stock exchange downtown on Paulista Avenue. Here's the 1892 viaduct linking the old downtown with what later became the new downtown.
Sao Paulo was founded by Jesuit missionaries in 1554. The economy here began with coffee exports from plantations worked first by slaves and then by European immigrants. The Mansion of Rosas, from 1930, is one of the last big ones built during the wealthy coffee period.
Brazil is part of the "Mercosul" business community,which is the Common Market of the South. This is a trade zone roughly equivalent in purpose to the EU, African Union, Asia-Paficic Economic Cooperation, or the Security and Prosperity Partnership in North America.
It snowed once, in 1918.
The city government of Sao Paulo is located inside the Palace of the Bandeirantes. The Palace is named after the legendary Bandits who fought deep into the middle of South America, to expand the territory of Brazil in the eighteenth century. Here's a look at the interior, too.
With all this commerce and activity flying around, it's natural that Sao Paulo is a huge center for business tourism. The city has the capacity to host hundreds of conventions PER DAY at any of the hotels, conference centers, sports arenas, etc. Here's an auto exhibition in the Anhembi Park Pavillion.
But there is still a lot of history to explore here, even in the middle of the high-tech world around you. Anchieta Museum was originally a school for teaching religious subjects to native Brazillians, built 1554.
The University of Sao Paulo's College of Law was founded in 1827 and is the oldest law school in Brazil. Twelve Brazillian presidents and countless other administrators have attended.
Getting There
Sao Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport is a small city all by itself. It's got 53,000 employees and the only bigger cargo hub nearby is in Mexico City, man!
Travel to the airport by bus takes about 45 minutes, you can rent a car there or park in the long term parking lots, as usual for any large airport city with 53,000 employees.
Traffic can get gnarly so allow plenty of extra time to get to the airport when it's time to leave. Remember, 53,000 people can make a decent little rush hour all by themselves.
First, some scenery with style: here's the Julio Prestes railway station now converted into a concert hall. The Station of Light or Estacao de Luz connecting with the metro system and also housing the Museum of the Portugese language. The Boiler House, a recovered industrial space now used for cultural events.
There is a metro system here but it is not as comprehensive as in a place like Tokyo. Buses are the main way to get around, along with street taxis and radio-dispatch taxis. The latter are more reliable if you're not fluent in Portugese yet.
People and Culture
Overall, Sao Paulo is the most ethnically diverse city in Brazil, and it has the largest Japanese population outside of Japan (Liberdade neighborhood).
And what do these diverse people do to celebrate? They have Carnaval!
Brazil has the best Carnavale in the world. There's no way in hell we can come anywhere close to describing it, not even with panoramas and thousands of words plane tickets caiparinhas and a jar of tiger sweat. Preparations alone go on for weeks.
It happens for 4 days before Ash Wednesday and marks the beginning of Lent, when people must give up the pleasures of the flesh.
There are lots of other major events happening here throughout the course of the year.
The annual Sao Paulo gay parade attracts upwards of 1.5 million people, and it's not just a little afternoon thing. The events surrounding the parade take up an entire month with street fairs, film festivals and crazy parties. This is the world's largest LGBT event! WORLD's LARGEST!
Sao Paulo fashion week attracts designers from all over the globe, and the Festival of Electronic Art invites digital media-makers to assemble en masse and tweak parameters together.
Sports fans pay attention! The Brazillian F1 Grand Prix is on a level with the Tour de France or the Kentucky Derby in world sporting. Drivers don't love the bumpy streets but fans come out in droves to watch, and 99% of them survive.
Things to do & Recommendations
Well, you've got twelve thousand restaurants, seventy museums, two hundred cinemas, and fifty theaters to choose from.
The Municipal Theater has the distinction of being the place where Hamlet was first performed, bringing Shakespeare to Sao Paulo as of 1911.
Shopping? Check out Oscar Friere street for Godiva, Versace, Armani and all of Louis Vuitton's other friends.
After you get thirsty from carrying all those bags, dip into Campos do Jordao for a cold beer. They brew their own.
A few gallery pointers -- State Art Gallery with modern exhibits from the 19th century until now, MASP Museum of Art Sao Paulo, Tomie Ohtake Institute for gooey plastic hyper-modern stuff.
For Nature and wildlife... well I guess the rainforest pretty much wins in this category, but on your way into the jungle you can poke your head into the Sao Paulo Aquarium.
Right within the city there's some nice green space in Ibirapuera Park. Two square kilometers and it's still only the second biggest park in the city! Get ready for this list of what it contains: a planetarium, Astrophysics School, Villa de Osos Bacalao (a building shaped like a horse!!), five convention-center pavillions, Air Force Museum, Agricultural Palace, Gymnasium, running tracks, Obelisk and fourteen million blades of grass.
Cool local favorite pub: "Jazz in the Deep Ones" where you can find live music and no liquor laws.
Lastly, how many times do I have to tell you? Go up to the top of the tallest thing you can find and look around. It'll be worth more than anything you can buy.

This is TALK OF THE NATION. I'm Jennifer Ludden.
Don't email the professor, never friend the teacher on Facebook, those are just some of the rules A.J. Jacobs was surprised to learn when he joined millions of other students worldwide who've registered for massive open online courses, or MOOCs. Top universities like Harvard and MIT now offer virtual classes free of charge to thousands of potential students across the globe. Writer A.J. Jacobs missed his college days so decided to enroll in 11 MOOCs with subjects ranging from philosophy to genetics to cosmology. He chronicled his experience in The New York Times, and we'll talk with him in just a moment.
If you've enrolled in a MOOC, what surprised you? Our number is 800-989-8255. Our email address: email@example.com. Or you can join the conversation at our website. Go to npr.org and click on TALK OF THE NATION. A.J. Jacobs joins us now. We have a link for the piece he wrote for The New York Times at our website, npr.org. A.J. is in our New York bureau. Welcome to you.
A.J. JACOBS: Thank you, Jennifer.
LUDDEN: OK. First, very ambitious of you to take on 11 courses. I don't remember any undergrads doing that.
JACOBS: Well, I did drop out of most of them, so...
LUDDEN: Yeah. All but two in the end.
JACOBS: Exactly.
LUDDEN: So you were sampling a bit?
JACOBS: Yes. I did a little dabbling, but there's no penalty for dabbling. So I figured why not?
LUDDEN: Which is part of the problem, I guess? What...
JACOBS: Right.
LUDDEN: What was your goal here?
JACOBS: My goal was, you know, I love learning. I sometimes wish I was still in college. But I also love sitting on my couch, so I thought this was a perfect experiment...
JACOBS: ...where I live to see the state of MOOCs today.
LUDDEN: OK. And you start off your article talking about the - so much for the Socratic method. You have this high profile, in some cases, teacher, but the professor you write is only slightly more accessible than the pope or Thomas Pynchon.
JACOBS: Right. And this is one of the big challenges of MOOCs. I mean, for me, there were many good parts to MOOCs and many challenges. I gave it an overall grade of a B, a solid B. But one of the big challenges is that you've got tens of thousands of students all over the globe, and you only have one top professor. So it's going to be difficult to sit down and have a conversation with him or her.
LUDDEN: And there seriously were rules, like don't friend them on Facebook and don't email them?
JACOBS: Oh, yeah. That was stated and, you know, we took it seriously. We left them alone.
LUDDEN: So what did that feel like then? What - how did you experience that?
JACOBS: Well, there were several parts to the MOOC experience. So first are the videotape lectures, which are awesome because you can watch them totally at your convenience. You can watch them when - I watched them on my treadmill, eating lunch. I watch them in double speed when my cosmology professor talk a little slowly. So - and you can watch them anywhere, you know, Senegal or South Dakota. But then there are also quizzes and essays that you can take that - and do projects. And then there's also the interaction with the other students, and you can do that on discussion boards or Google, a chat or Twitter. And then there is a little bit of interaction with the professor and the teaching assistants. It all depends on the professor, how available they are. I really tried to have an interaction with the professor. I entered a lottery to have an exclusive Google hangout with my genetics professor.
LUDDEN: The class had a - the professor had a lottery to gain access to him?
JACOBS: Exactly. That's right. It was a lottery and I lost.
JACOBS: So there were only 10 people who got in.
LUDDEN: Is there a lottery per semester or was this something he just came up with under popular demand? Or how did that come about?
JACOBS: I believe it is. Every semester, there's a Google hang out with him. And some professors were more accessible, so it all depended on the professor. My cosmology professor held virtual office hours in Second Life, which is the online virtual world, and - but he was very - he warned us not to try it unless we were very adapted to Second Life. And I have never been on Second Life, so I was scared off.
LUDDEN: I have - I've never been on it either. I don't know. Is that a video, I mean, video? Email? Do you have any idea? I guess you didn't do it.
JACOBS: Yeah, it's sort of a virtual world where, you know, they set up a virtual classroom that you can - you have an avatar and you actually go in and talk to the professor's avatar.
LUDDEN: Now you write that the world of MOOC is trying to address this issue of inaccessibility. What are some things they're thinking about or toying with?
JACOBS: Yeah. They know it's a challenge, and they are doing several things. There's - they're recruiting more experienced students to guide the discussions, and there's also thoughts of an offline-online hybrid model. So you would watch the professor on video, and then you would go to an actual classroom and talk to a local professor. So if you're in Quito, Ecuador, you know, you would go to a classroom in Quito.
LUDDEN: OK. Let's - if you have had a surprise when you took a MOOC course, let us know about it. Our number is 800-989-8255, or send us an email: firstname.lastname@example.com. Let's bring a listener in. Jonathan in Lexington, Massachusetts. Welcome.
JONATHAN: Oh, thank you. Thank you. It's great to talk to your guest. I really enjoyed your article. Actually, I'm involved with a similar project. It's a bit more kind of systematic, and I'm actually attempting to take enough MOOC courses over the course of 2013 to get the equivalent of a liberal arts bachelor degree in 12 months (unintelligible) four years. So I'm actually in - well, I just finished my freshman year, and then I'm kind of - have been taking over 14 courses since the beginning of the year for a total of 32 towards the end of the year and...
JACOBS: Did you have to quit your job? How did you get the time to do this?
JONATHAN: Well, it's my project. I'm actually doing it as part of a kind of year-long effort to kind of just reflect on online learning. I got a website called Degree of Freedom where I'm sort of doing daily analysis of kind of the different things I'm learning from the experience. Because, you know, like you, I definitely felt that things like the discussion groups could vary quickly, sort of - the conversation could dissipate. But at the same time, if you find a sort of smaller cohort of students that you can interact with, that seems to be successful for some people to kind of create their own smaller communities.
LUDDEN: So, Jonathan, what was your biggest surprise in this immersion project of yours?
JONATHAN: Well, I would say, you know, the biggest one is really that if you are a self-motivated learner, meaning, you know, you're going to - even though you know you can the same grade on a paper by putting one hour into it, you know, versus putting three, that if you put the three into it to really kind of teach yourself something while you're writing or, you know, its (unintelligible) do the reading, make sure you'll slowly listen to the lecturers. Take notes, you know? Go through it like it's, you know, as rigorous a learning experience. You can get as much as you could out of an actual college class. I think the high dropout rates that people talk about are really, you know, there's a lot of reasons for them, but I think that a lot of it is because some people sign up not realizing, hey, this really is a college class with, you know, that same level demand. And if you bring the right mindset to it, then you can really get, you know, as much out of it as you put into it.
LUDDEN: All right. Jonathan, thanks so much for the call.
JONATHAN: Thank you.
LUDDEN: So, A.J., an upbeat there, upbeat assessment in the end.
JACOBS: Yeah. I mean, I think it is a lot about self-motivation. And I didn't expect that much work, the amount of work. You know, some classes you have to work 10, 15 hours a week. I took also some guts as we used to call them in college. So some that really easy, just and hour a week. And you have to do these assignments, and I had to write some essays. And what's interesting you have - you get graded by your peers. So other students grade you. And I wrote an essay for my philosophy class. And overall, they were kind. My graders were kind, but I bristled in every little negative thing they said. You know, I was like, who died and made you professor?
LUDDEN: Oh, we have an email from Stephanie. She writes: The thing that surprised me the most was there were people that actually cheated on papers. Blatant plagiarism. Why would anyone cheat on a MOOC?
JACOBS: Well, you do get - at the end, you get a certificate. It doesn't really count for anything official, but you get - it's like a little badge. And cheat - that - as MOOCs evolve and they actually start counting for college credit, which I think they will, that's going to be a big problem. I also, as a journalist, of course, I cheated just to see how easy it was. And I was able to Google the answers to my genetics quiz and my cosmology quiz.
LUDDEN: Uh-oh.
JACOBS: Yeah. There are companies now that are doing online proctoring. So they offer a service where they will have people watch you over a video feed so that you don't cheat.
LUDDEN: OK. Let's take another call now. Rashad(ph) in Austin. Welcome to TALK OF THE NATION.
RASHAD: Hi. Thanks for taking my call. I took a MOOC through Coursera and it was organic chemistry course and I failed miserably at it. And it sort of gave me the understanding that courses like organic chemistry and sort of these, you know, higher level classes I don't think are really the way MOOC should be - or courses that should be offered through MOOC, especially if it's going to be for a college credit. Where they should be used for college credit are courses like sociology, political science, history where you have engineering students at the University of Texas - why are they paying $2,000 in credit or whatever it is to pay through sociology class when it has nothing to do with their major? They just need it to fulfill a requirement.
So I think that's the reason why we have so much debt in America. And if students can be funneled to a course like through Coursera or a MOOC where that MOOC - where they can take that sociology class, you know, get that credit for 150 bucks or whatever they're charging, I mean, that can really save a lot of money for students. And it's just ridiculous that, you know, you're not going to remember anything from your sociology class 10 years later. So why are you spending so much money to take it?
LUDDEN: OK. Well, perhaps, Rashad, you wouldn't say that to a sociology major, would you?
RASHAD: Sociology major, of course, but then the sociology major, maybe he can take their prep chemistry course, which they have to take to fulfill their science requirement. They should take that through Coursera, maybe, or a MOOC because again, it's not related to their major, so why spend so much money and so much time taking a course that is not related? You know, you can get just as much out of it doing it through a MOOC.
LUDDEN: All right. Thanks so much, Rashad. A.J.
JACOBS: And if I could just add one thing to that. I think that is one of the great hopes of MOOCs is that it will flatten education and it'll provide - making much more equal. So someone in a developing country who has no money can still watch the lectures from these top schools. Interestingly, I think it makes education - the students more equal, but it makes the professors more unequal.
LUDDEN: That's right. You talk about celebrity professors now.
JACOBS: You have these - they turn into celebrity professors so they have these tens of thousands of students and you look at some of the discussion boards and it looks like a one-direction fan page. You know, they're talking about the professor's smile and the super-cool sweater he's wearing. So I think one of the dangers is that that you get this breed of A-list celebrity professors who have a lopsided sway over the landscape of ideas.
LUDDEN: All right. You're listening to TALK OF THE NATION from NPR News. Another caller now. Harriet(ph) in Chicago, Illinois. Hi, Harriet. Welcome to the show.
HARRIET: Hello. I - Jonathan, I think you missed the gem of the Coursera courses and the MOOCs. I took modern and contemporary poetry at Upon - or coming out of Upon - and the Professor Phil Reese was totally accessible to the students. He really reached out to students who had special needs and he was available by personal email. And our discussion forums were completely dedicated to the subject of the poems and not anything silly.
JACOBS: Well, it's interesting. You were not the first person. I've gotten about three or four emails from students in that very class, who said that they had a very interactive experience. I've had a lot of emails from other people who had a similar experience to mind. So it sounds like I am going to have to take that course.
LUDDEN: All right. Harriet, thank you.
HARRIET: Well, it's going to be offered again in the fall.
LUDDEN: Thank you so much, Harriet.
HARRIET: You're welcome.
LUDDEN: So let's - but less we take your experiences, the universal one there, A.J. Now, A.J., you also talk about trying to recreate that, you know, late night session in the dorm room by interacting with your peers, some of the people taking the course with you. What happened there?
JACOBS: Well, it varied. There are many ways to do this, so sometimes I would actually try to shut my computer and leave the apartment, believe it or not, and meet them in three dimensions. That did not always worked out. I went to a study group at a Brooklyn diner for my history class and no one showed up except for me. So that was kind of sad. I also did several Google hangouts, these video or Skype hangouts, and those were actually very interesting because you got such an international group. So I had people from Brazil and the Philippines putting in their perspective on history. So it definitely varied.
And then the boards where you type in your thoughts, they're also a mixed bag. You get some trolls who, you know, they make fun of the professors' accents, for instance. But then you also get some very thoughtful people. In my genetics class, I asked - I wondered if there was an evolutionary reason why so many people refuse to believe in evolution. And I got some very thoughtful responses.
LUDDEN: OK. Let's squeeze in one last quick call here. Arlene in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We have just a moment left, but go ahead, Arlene.
ARLENE: Hi. I just want to share that I've been taking the Secret of Life MOOC through ex. and it was actually something I heard about on NPR and enrolled. I'm a business consultant, so biology is kind of opposite direction for me. And although it's been extremely difficult and the problems that sometimes seem to be ridiculously hard, you realize along the way that you're actually learning a tremendous amount. And it's just really rewarding from that perspective.
LUDDEN: Thank you so much. So, A.J. Jacobs, obviously we have a lot of people who are signing up for these things as they become more widely available. Where do you see the movement going in and what are your lessons learned?
JACOBS: Well, I see that it is - it will continue. I mean, it is - I don't think it's going away and some people call it a fad and some people say it's a revolution. I am more on the side that is going to have a huge impact. It's so hard to predict what that impact will be. I think it will be overall good, especially because it allows people all over the world who don't have a lot of resources to get access to education. But it's got a huge number of challenges; the interaction, the cheating and many more.
LUDDEN: All right. Well, let us know how you do in your next course in the spring. A.J. Jacobs' latest book is "Drop Dead Healthy: One Man's Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection." His essay "Two Cheers for Web U!" appeared in Sunday's issue of The New York Times. You can find a link to that piece on our website. And A.J. joined us from our New York bureau. Thank you so much.
JACOBS: Thank you.
LUDDEN: Tomorrow, Neal Conan is back and so is the Political Junkie. Ken Rodin will be here with a new trivia question. You don't want to miss that. This is TALK OF THE NATION from NPR News. I'm Jennifer Laden in Washington. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Mr. Speaker, today marks the expiration of the term of office of authoritarian Belarusian President Alyaksandr Lukashenka under the 1994 Belarusian Constitution. To nobody's surprise, Mr. Lukashenka is not abandoning his office, having extended his term of office until 2001 using the vehicle of an illegitimate 1996 constitutional referendum.
Since Lukashenka was elected five years ago, Belarus has witnessed nothing but backsliding in the realm of human rights and democracy and a deterioration of the economic situation. The Belarusian Government continues to violate its commitments under the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) relating to human rights, democracy and the rule of law. At the root of these violations lies the excessive power usurped by President Lukashenka since his election in 1994, especially following the illegitimate 1996 constitutional referendum, when he disbanded the Supreme Soviet and created a new legislature subordinate to his rule.
Freedoms of expression, association and assembly remain curtailed. The government hampers freedom of the media by tightly controlling the use of national TV and radio. Administrative and economic measures are used to cripple the independent media and NGOs. Political opposition has been targeted for repression, including imprisonment, detention, fines and harassment. The independence of the judiciary has been further eroded, and the President alone controls judicial appointments. Legislative power is decidedly concentrated in the executive branch of government.
The Helsinki Commission, which I Chair, has extensively monitored and reported on the sad situation in Belarus, and has attempted to encourage positive change in that country through direct contacts with Belarusian officials, as well as through the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. The OSCE Parliamentary Assembly meeting in St. Petersburg earlier this month overwhelmingly supported a resolution encouraging democratic change in Belarus, including the conduct of free and fair elections next year.
As Chairman of the U.S. delegation to the OSCE PA, I urged my fellow parliamentarians to join me in calling for the release of ex-Prime Minister Mikhail Chygir and the guarantee of free access to the media by opposition groups. In addition, I joined 125 delegates representing 37 of the 54 participating States in signing a statement which offered more harsh criticism of the political situation in Belarus, condemned the use of violence against Supreme Soviet members and representatives of the democratic opposition, and protested their detention.
Within the last few days, there appears to be some glimmer of hope in the gloomy Belarusian predicament. According to a July 17 joint statement by the OSCE PA ad hoc Working Group on Belarus and the OSCE Advisory and Monitoring Group (AMG) in Belarus: "The Belarusian President states his commitment to the holding of free, fair and recognizable parliamentary elections in Belarus next year, as well as his support for a national dialogue on elections to be held between the government and the opposition." I agree with the Working Group and AMG's emphasis on the importance of "access to electronic media for all participants in the negotiations, and a political climate free of fear and politically motivated prosecution." Mr. Speaker, while I welcome this statement, I remain guarded, given Mr. Lukashenka's track record. I very much look forward to its implementation by the Belarusian Government, which could be a positive step in reducing Belarus' isolation from the international community and the beginnings of a reversal in the human rights situation in that country.

Protopresbyter Alexander Schmemann (September 13, 1921 - December 13, 1983) was a prominent 20th century Orthodox Christian priest, theologian, and writer.
Fr. Alexander Schmemann was born in Estonia to Russian émigrés. His family moved to France, where he received his university education. He married Juliana Osorguine in 1943, before completing his theological studies at the Orthodox Theological Institute of St. Sergius in Paris and was ordained a priest in 1946 by Archbishop Vladimir (Tikhonitsky).
From 1946 to 1951, Fr. Alexander taught Church History at St. Sergius. He was invited to join the faculty of St. Vladimir's Seminary (then in New York City), where he taught from 1951 onwards. When the seminary moved to its present campus in Crestwood, New York in 1962, Fr. Alexander assumed the post of dean, which he would hold until his death. He also served as adjunct professor at Columbia University, New York University, Union Theological Seminary and General Theological Seminary in New York. Much of his focus at St. Vladimir's was on liturgical theology, which emphasizes the liturgical tradition of the Church as a major sign and expression of the Christian faith.
Fr. Alexander was accorded the title of protopresbyter (also called archpriest in some Orthodox jurisdictions, though in the Russian tradition from which Fr. Alexander came, the two are distinct honorary titles), the highest honor that can be bestowed on a married Orthodox priest. He held honorary degrees from Butler University, General Theological Seminary, Lafayette College, Iona College, and Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology.
He was an Orthodox observer for the Second Vatican Council of the Roman Catholic Church from 1962 to 1965.
In 1970, he was active in the establishment of the Orthodox Church in America, which at that time became officially independent from the Russian Orthodox Church, though its autocephaly has not been universally recognized.
His sermons were broadcast in Russian on Radio Liberty for 30 years. He gained a broad following of listeners across the Soviet Union, including Alexander Solzhenitsyn, who became his friend after emigrating to the West.
Fr. Alexander published many books and articles. For the Life of the World, a popular volume on Christian faith as reflected in liturgy, has been translated into eleven languages. Originally prepared as a study guide for the National Student Christian Federation in 1963, it even had an anonymous version published by the underground samizdat in the Soviet Union. The Eucharist was finished just before his death. This and several collections of his writings were published posthumously.

This frothy pink invitation told guests we would have tutu much fun at Emma's fourth birthday party.
To make a tutu invitation, I searched Microsoft Word for a piece of clip art with a tutu. When I found one I liked, I imported it into my document and edited away everything but the leotard. I re-sized the leotard and placed a text box on the bodice with party details. I printed the invitations on pink card stock and cut out the leotards. I punched two holes in the bottom of each leotard. Then I made a tulle bow, securing it to the front of the invitation with a length of ribbon threaded through the two holes and pulled taut. A second tulle bow tied to the back with a pretty bow completed the tutu. And a strand of adhesive pearls at the neckline added a final feminine detail. (Scrapbook paper, rolls of 6-inch wide tulle and pearl embellishments from Michael's.)
Emma's party was full of giggles and twirls, so come back each day for all the ballerina fun!

This post was last updated at 6:10 p.m. ET.
The House and Senate were in session on Columbus Day, the 14th day of the federal government shutdown. A meeting that had been arranged between President Obama, Vice President Biden and the four main leaders of Congress was postponed, as the White House cited the progress being made in negotiations.
The latest word of a possible deal calls for raising the federal debt limit through Feb. 15 and funding a return to work for the government through Jan. 15. We'll update this post as more news comes in.
Over the weekend, senators from both parties assumed key roles in the negotiations, after House Republicans and the White House failed to reach an agreement.
Update at 6:10 p.m. ET: Reid Sees 'Tremendous Progress'
"We know this has been a difficult time for everyone," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said of the budget debate, adding that he and Minority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell have been working toward a solution.
Reid said there would be no Senate votes on a possible deal Monday night.
"We've made tremendous progress. We're not there yet," Reid said. "But tremendous progress. And everyone just needs to be patient."
"We've had a good day," McConnell said, speaking in turns with Reid. "I think it's safe to say we've made substantial progress."
"Perhaps tomorrow will be a bright day," Reid said. "We're not there yet; we hope we will be."
Reid finished his remarks by saying, "Everybody understand, we're doing the very best we can with all the frailties that we have, as people and legislators."
Update at 4:30 p.m. ET: Leaders See Progress; Possible Deal Described
Citing "a source familiar with the negotiations," Reuters reports on the framework of a possible deal, saying it would "extend U.S. borrowing authority at least through mid-February and provide government funding until mid-January to end a two-week government shutdown."
The Washington Post is reporting the same provisions, which remain tentative at this point.
Earlier Monday, Majority Leader Harry M. Reid, D-Nev., said on the Senate floor, "Constructive, good-faith negotiations continue between the Republican leader and me. I am very optimistic; we will reach an agreement that's reasonable in nature this week."
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., echoed Reid's sentiment, saying, "I share his optimism that we're going to get a result that will be acceptable to both sides."
Update at 2:45 p.m. ET: Meeting Postponed
Saying that it wants to "allow leaders in the Senate time to continue making important progress towards a solution that raises the debt limit and reopens the government," the White House has announced that a meeting with congressional leaders planned for 3 p.m. has been postponed.
Update at 11:55 a.m. ET: Leaders Of Congress Will Talk With Obama
President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will meet with Majority Leader Harry Reid, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Boehner and House Minority Leader Pelosi at 3 p.m. ET today, the White House has announced.
Our original post continues:
President Obama and Congress have until Thursday, Oct. 17, to reach a deal averting a potential credit default by the U.S. government, which has been in shutdown mode since the start of the new financial year this month.
Over the weekend, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his Republican counterpart, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, had at least two private meetings to discuss possible solutions to the impasse.
"The discussions were substantive, and we'll continue those discussions," Reid said in the Senate Sunday. "I'm optimistic about the prospects for a positive conclusion."
Without an increase in the borrowing limit that's currently set at $16.7 trillion, the government will be scraping to find money to meet its financial obligations, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew says. And those needs will be particularly dire at the start of next month, as Nancy Marshall-Genzer reports for Marketplace:
"The U.S. has some huge payouts on November 1 — to Social Security recipients, Medicare providers — as well as its obligations to its troops. The country also needs money to keep running the parts of government that are still open — like the FAA and Justice Department."
On Sunday, International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde said the United States' inability to get its financial house in order could bring "massive disruption the world over."
Speaking on Meet the Press, Lagarde told NBC's David Gregory that long-term solutions, not accounting tricks, were the answer to America's problems.
"When you are the largest economy in the world, when you are the safe haven in all circumstances, as has been the case, you can't go into that creative accounting business," she said.
On today's Morning Edition, NPR's David Welna looks at how the debt ceiling became "a nuclear-tipped leverage point."

Don't ever introduce yourself. The Hi, Im Chuck from Alabama approach does not go down well in British pubs. Natives will cringe and squirm with embarrassment at such brashness. If your introduction is accompanied by a beaming smile and outstretched hand, they will probably find an excuse to get away from you as quickly as possible. Sorry, but that's how it is. The British quite frankly do not want to know your name, or shake your hand or at least not until a proper degree of mutual interest has been well established (like maybe when you marry their daughter). You will have to adopt a more subtle, less demonstrative approach.In her book Watching the English (which I don't have with me at the moment--so this is from memory), Fox quotes the reaction of an American couple who were clearly upset and puzzled by this British behavio(u)r. They felt that it was some kind of cruel game for the British to withhold that basic information about themselves. The thing to understand here is this: the British sense of personal privacy is very different from the American one. Asking someone's name, even implicitly by offering yours, is a premature violation of that privacy until some goodwill has already been established between you.
I observe this all the time on the playground. The British parents strike up conversations, and may ask about each other's children's names (which they can then use to encourage their children to play together), but they don't introduce themselves. If you've got(ten) along very well, then maybe--but probably not the first time you've met--you might say 'By the way, I'm [your name here]' before you part company. Maybe.
I saw Better Half speak on two occasions with the mother of a little girl who is close to Grover's age. After the first time, he said "I think she might be someone I worked with years ago." Only at the end of the second (long) conversation did they do the "By the way, I'm..." thing, at which point they discovered that they had worked together and both had recogni{z/s}ed each other, but were afraid to approach the topic in case they were wrong. Contrast this to me meeting another American at a party--within five minutes we've established our names, where we're from, who we work for, and several points of common experience--places we've both been and people we've met who the other might have met. And I am an awkward American. I hate small talk. But establishing these similarities is de rigueur for American conversation (recall our previous discussion of compliments). Because I am awkward, and hyper-aware of certain interactional markers of foreignness in British conversations, I am completely tongue-tied on the playground. I know how not to start a conversation in a British context, but I consider the most common acceptable ways to start a conversation (commenting on the weather or the busyness of the playground) too boring/obvious to start with, so I get stuck.*
It was reassuring, then, to see some quantitative research backing up my own impressions and Fox's observations in Klaus Schneider's new (in-press) paper 'Appropriate behaviour across varieties of English' in the Journal of Pragmatics. Schneider compared the openings of small-talk conversations between teens at parties in Ireland, the US, and England. The majority of English teens (56.7%) start with a greeting only (e.g. Hi), while Americans prefer greeting + identifying themselves (60%) and sometimes explicitly asking for the other person's name. The Irish teens prefer greeting + what Schneider calls an 'approach' (73.3%), in which they refer to the context and evaluate it (almost always in a positive way). His example of an approach is Great party, isn't it?**
Looking at the elements of an opening separately, Americans are more likely to introduce themselves than to greet you with a hi or hello. In the graph below DISC-ID means 'disclose identity'--i.e. introduce yourself.
(The figure is about a subset of the data, so the numbers don't match the more general analysis of the data in my earlier paragraph. The numbers don't add up to 100% because there are other things you might do besides these three--but these are the most frequent.)
While the data is from teens, it feels pretty representative of what adults do.
So, please, go to some parties and experiment with this and report back here. Just don't do your experiments on me. I'll be standing in the corner, pretending to notice something remarkable in my drink, trying to avoid all the pitfalls of small talk.
And in other news:
- I've been pathetic about blogging here, haven't I? So I completely didn't deserve to be in the Lexiophiles/bab.la Top 25 Language Bloggers this year, and I wasn't. (For the first time. I feel duly punished!) But have a look at the link for the good ones.
- The voters and the judges were kind to my Twitter account (even though they didn't identify me by my Twitter handle in the voting--it was strange). I made it to #9 there. Here's the full list.
- But I haven't been completely neglecting my writing-about-AmE/BrE vocation. Since the last blog, I've talked at TedXSussexUniversity on American/British politeness norms and at Horsham Skeptics in the Pub. I'll link to the TedX talk when it's on-line. The SitP talk is reviewed here. But don't read the review if you want to see me give the talk (too many spoilers!). I'm doing it again at the Brighton Skeptics in the Pub in October. A few other things are in the pipeline...
*In a cross-cultural communication course I used to teach, one of the readings was about Finnish culture, and the point that really stuck with me was that Finns are often puzzled (or maybe annoyed) by English speakers' need to state the obvious. Why say Nice weather!, for instance, when everyone can see what the weather's like? It made Finland sound like some kind of anti-small-talk Nirvana that I'd want to live in, but it's also made me super-critical of myself when I interact with Finns. There is no hope for me--I am awkward in every culture.
** Schneider also notes the predictability of the Great party! line:
Great is clearly preferred by speakers of IrE, but speakers of AmE make use of a wider range of lexical items. These include great, good, nice, especially cool and also fun, as, e.g.in Fun party, huh?

11 Killed In Afghan Helicopter Crash; 7 Were U.S. Military Personnel
The crash of an International Security Assistance Force helicopter in southern Afghanistan today killed 11 people who were on board, according to the NATO command in Kabul.
It has posted a statement saying:
"The crash resulted in the deaths of four International Security Assistance Force service members, three United States Forces-Afghanistan service members, three members of the Afghan National Security Forces, and one Afghan civilian interpreter.
"The cause of the crash is under investigation."
Update at 8:50 a.m. ET. Seven Were Americans:
Commanders in Kabul say seven of the personnel killed were Americans, NPR's Tom Bowman reports. It would appear that they include the "four International Security Assistance Force service members" referred to in the earlier statement.
We've updated our headline, which earlier said "at least" three Americans had been killed.

Istanbul Naval Museum
The Istanbul Navy Museum dates back over a century but is now housed in a new purpose-built building on the banks of the Bosphorus. While ostensibly relating to Turkish naval history, the core of its collection consists of 14 imperial caiques, mostly from the 19th century, that are displayed on the main two floors of the museum.

Episode 62
by June 15, 2012. Please do not forget to include your contact information!
You had me laughing out loud with the story of your son and the Little Oak photo shoots. My daughter was about the same age when we tried to get a family photo with our 3 older sons and her. What a disaster, she cried the entire time. We got one photo where she wasn't crying, she was probably taking a deep breath to get ready for a really big scream :)
I love all the knitted toys, I really need to try some, my boys would probably love those dinosaurs.
Thanks for the great podcast!
thanks for the podcast
Dinosaurs! How great.
--dclulu on Ravelry
I haven't knitted any toys yet. These are so cute. I'm sure any child would love one. Thanks for the giveaway.
Savannagal on Rav
I really enjoyed listening to the story on the train! People really get intrigued by us knitters. We had a man commenting our knitting at the cafe on Wednesday. He asked: Are you a knitting club? Are you pregnant? He said that his sister started knitting when she became pregnant! Have a great weekend!
Ooo...what cute looking patterns! I love knitting toys. :)

Such a cute story on the picture of your little boy! Thank you for sharing.
As for what I am knitting now - I bought Whee Wildflower to make for my 5-yo daughter, and cannot get the gauge right. No matter what I do - I am still 2 sts off.
Thank you for discount.
Too bad I cannot use it now.
thank you,
~ iris68
I was cracking up about your disastrous baby photo shoots! The sleeping with pinecone shots are priceless. I have the same problem getting good pics of my kids in my knits. Although, my 3-yr-old is harder to photograph than my 9-month old lately...
Just bought yarn today to make Little Oak for my baby boy!
I am a fellow year-round knitter. I only learned to knit a couple years ago, so I'm making up for a lifetime of lost knitting enjoyment. I just made some fingerless gloves in pink and purple for my daughter for this fall, and I want to make some shawls and scarves for myself this summer... once fall hits, it's knitting for the holidays. The knits in this book would make great ornaments. I'd love to win it.

My son loves dinosaurs...and I love the instant gratification of a knitted toy :). Thanks for the giveaway! Ravelry: lilpixie124
I have never made a knitted toy, but I have three babies to knit for right now (two of which I know are boys, one still to be announced). I think this book would allow me to make a cute addition to the afghans I'm planning to knit for these babies!
I'm hooked on Susan B Anderson's Itty Bitty Toys--I just finished a wrap me up pup and now am working on the reversible frog/turtle. I love making knitted toys and have had my eye on this book for a while.
That was great! Thanks for the podcast!
Those dinos are so cute!
With a 3.5 yr old, and another boy due in August, the knitted dinosaurs would be an absolute hit in our house :) Thanks for the giveaway opportunity and another great podcast!

I love both Little Oak sweaters you made for your kids but am especially fond of the red Little Oak sweater you made for your daughter.
I'm glad you are back podcasting. It's my laundry folding listening time. I have three little boys so would love a chance to win the knitted dinosaurs book.
boosay on Ravelry
hahahaha! They're sooo cute! I would really like to have this book. However, I won't be knitting dinos for kiddies, at least not at first: I NEED a triceratops of my own! Thanks for offering this giveaway.

I have a baby boy who (I think) needs a knitted dinosaur in his future!
Thank you so much for your wonderful podcast!
biscuitgirl on Ravelry
Great podcast! So glad you are back. Love the dino book.
Maevenish on ravelry...
For me, summer is the time to knit socks and shawls (especially lace ones). I always have to wear my knitting as soon as it's off the needles, never mind the temperature! So, I don't knit wool sweater and other winter stuff, I juts wait for fall... I know that it would be smarter to plan away and knit for the upcoming season instead of the current one, but I can't help it: my motivation and inspiration are linked to the weather and knowing that I'll wear my finished object as soon they are done!
I have a 2 year old nephew who would love a knit dinosaur! RachelUnraveled on ravelry
Thank you for the great podcast.
Thanks for the podcast.

Thank you for this giveaway!
What a cute book! Would be nice to knit for my grandkids. glongley on ravelry
i have the perfect customer for the dinosaur. An adorable three year old boy. He and his twin sister are getting a new baby sister (surprise surprise, mom and dad thought this was not medically possible).Daniel would absolutely love the dinosaurs and he might not feel so outnumbered by the new baby sister he is afraid to have come in the house. Keep up the great designing.
Okay, so now the neighbors are saying "She's taking pictures of her children in knitwear again...poor girl" ;-) Love hearing your latest podcast, please keep them coming!! Charlene (Keppygirl on Ravelry)
Dinos! Can we ever have enough? Fingers crossed...
I love your podcast!! I'd love to win this book! Thanks for the nice giveaway!
Love the story of the eaten knitted toys...my son (1 year) does the same! Rebecca (rebecca6923 on rav)
Really cute book. I loved the story :) Stories are my favorite part.-Tori
Loved your photo shoot story. It was very entertaining. The Coastal Knit for kids patterns are all so adorably cute. I'm sure my grandson and nephew would rather have a knitted dinosaur instead of a sweater!!
knitsta on Ravelry
I can totally relate to your hilarious photo shoot story. I have 6 kiddos myself, and a couple of them have been spit-up kings! If I had taken off the bib (or didn't have one on yet) I could always count on a big mess to follow. So glad you're podcasting again!
KrochetKristin on Ravelry
Love this blog! So happy to be hooked on it.
Welcome back!!
I thoroughly enjoy your podcast. The toys are cute. I spent my 10th anniversary awaiting the birth of our daughter. That was 25 years ago today and now we are busy planning her wedding this August. Incredible how time passes so quickly.

Love the dinos. Thanks for the opportunity.
Love the dinos. Thanks for the opportunity.
When my nephew was first born i made him a dinosaur blanket and two knitted dinosaur toys which can be seen on my ravelry page under my username catgocrazy. I really liked knitting Dinosaurs.
I really enjoyed this podcast. Looking forward to the next.
Just new to your podcast. Enjoying it a lot. Would love to learn to make dinosaurs for my grandson.
Thank you for this giveaway. I'm in love with dinosaurs and would love this book as well.

My five year old boy and his cousins would love these dinos, how cute are they! Thanks for another great episode, so glad you've returned. I loved your story about your sons sweater, it brought back memories of my kids when they were young. How easily we forget about all the spit up and how much laundry such a little person can generate!

So glad you are back podcasting, I enjoying your stories and your contributors too. Just have to work up the nerve to record and submit my own ..
Kelly (hoodlumknit on Ravelry)
I loved this episode.
I have become hard-core knitter I guess. A couple of years ago I started knitting through the summer months. Before that I was a seasonal knitter. Last summer during the terrible heat waves I remember knitting a thick cable hat from angora-merino blend. My friends laught at me but I was really inspired to knit that yarn I got on summer sale and the Ysolda Teagues wonderful pattern. I haven't knit anything big and wolly in the summer yet, but I'm plannin to knit a sweater during the Ravelympics. We'll see how that goes.
Thank you for sharing the story of taking pictures of your son. I also loved the train knitting story.
Judiuni @ Ravelry
My son will love you forever if I win this book!!! I made a bunch of the bunny nuggets and chicks to pass out at Easter. They were a hit with all the kids!

I enjoyed listing to the podcast and will check back regularly for new ones. I have crocheted toys but haven't ventured into knitting them yet, being only one year into knitting. My new granddaughter will soon be old enough to play with toys and what's cuddlier than a T-Rex?
My nephew would love for me to knit him a dinosaur.

What a great podcast! I've fallen behind about a year and have some catching up to do. I, too, love to knit toys. I like Susan B. Anderson's Itty Bitty Toys and her other Itty Bitty books.

Discover Bunbury
Looking out at the crystal blue Indian Ocean, the port city of Bunbury is one of Western Australia's most popular tourist destinations, situated 175 kilometres (109 mi) south of the capital, Perth. Although central to the commerce of the South West, Bunbury is known for its laid-back lifestyle. Bunbury has all of the postcard-worthy features WA has to offer – pristine beaches, crystal clear oceans and cloudless blue skies. With the best of both worlds, it has the feel of a great country town with all of the luxuries of a modern metropolis. There's so much to see and do within the town itself, all year round.
Bunbury's cappuccino strip gives you the perfect way to start any day: with a good cup of coffee. For more tantalising food and drink, you can head out to the beautiful Ferguson Valley for its world class restaurants, wineries and breweries. For the experience of a lifetime, visit the Dolphin Discovery Centre, where you can experience friendly dolphins up close in the wild. After a day of sun and sights, why not add to the fun with a visit to the Bunbury Bowling Club. For the wild at heart, the high-octane sights, sounds and smells of Bunbury Speedway are at your disposal.
The region is home to some of the best music and arts festivals in the country. The annual Groovin' The Moo (GTM) festival brings the world's best bands, and crowds from across Australia, to Bunbury for an exciting weekend. For visual art and photography lovers, the Dardanup Art Spectacular is a popular event that hosts a series of exhibitions and competitions over the course of a month each year. As well as festivals and feature events, Bunbury is home to some great restaurants, pubs, bars and clubs that you can enjoy every night of the year.
