I know I promised in my last "Roscoe" post an outline of my strategy for this post, but when the mythological genea-gods smile down on you, well, you must take the opportunity to perform the thankful "Genea-Happy Dance..." [Yes, I have "Greek" mythology on the mind. Thanks to the person ~you know who you are~ for putting it there.]
The mythological genealogy gods work behind the scenes like invisible hands sometimes "toying" with us for their amusement alone, leaving us frustrated when we cannot scale that proverbial "brick wall". However, sometimes when we least expect it they look down upon us mere mortals and favor us with a token of genea-bliss. I don't know what I did [set-up a bunch of online familial beacons, maybe?], if anything, to deserve a mythical genea-nod but I know better than to look a gift centaur in the mouth. I'm taking it, and running away quickly before they can change their minds. So, what's my token of genea-bliss, you ask? Well, are you sitting down?
My Internet Bread Crumbs
Find A Grave with some [hopefully] better looking photos. Now, this is where the hands of the mythological genea-gods come into play. From what I can tell, the wife of my distant cousin who set the memorials up and/or my distant cousin happened to check the memorials. They saw the photos that I had added as well as my notes. Then they somehow found my Genealogy Wise page, became members at Genealogy Wise [is there a referral incentive program? ;) ], read my latest Family Stories blog post that shows up on my GW page that featured Roscoe, and posted answers to some of my questions I had posted. Here's some of what my distant cousin posted on my Genealogy Wise wall:
We were glad to see the pictures you entered. We are the only ones who have ever put flowers on their grave. We have never missed a Memorial Day. I guess you know all five are buried in one grave. The fire was so hot that they were buried together. Roscoe has a veterans memorial but the children have no monument. Roscoe's widow hasn't been dead that long and is buried at Taylor with a nice rock close to Roscoe and the children. My grandmother was Ida Martin Taylor and a sister of Joel Arthur Martin (Grandma always called him Bub and Mother and others always called him Uncle Bub), so the Martin's are my family also. When John Winston was a baby they let my Mother Addie May take him. Roscoe nicknamed him Jackie after me. I was about 11 at the time and remember him well. Mother and my Stepdad wanted to adopt him, Roscoe was willing but Norma took him back.
About the lie detector test, one of the State men that gave it told Uncle Bent that they were the meanest people he had ever given the test. They could lie and never show it. This was never published but passed from Uncle Bent to my Mother to me so I believe it. There is some history I can give you about our Martins and family and community remarks about the fire. The house belonged to Mother and Roscoe's cousin, Addie and Charlie Cheek. The house was located in the country just off Route 45 before you get to Vienna. I was raised on down the country road from there. It was a small house but was a two story house with 2 rooms upstairs. That is where the children were. They never had a chance. I also have the death certificates of the 5 if you want a copy. Also copies of the cemetery and where they are buried.
My distant cousin also found my email, or maybe my contact button on my blog. Here is some additional information:
"After I hear from you, I will send more info that I have by e-mail or reg. mail however you prefer. My grandma Ida was your Great G'Father's sister...My wife was excited that you found Roscoe and the children on Find A Grave. She put them on because she didn't want them forgotten..."
Wow, huh? It's a lot of information to digest. There are many things of interest, and I will tackle them in length in my next post, provided the seances I have planned this weekend while in New Orleans for a wedding at St. Patrick's Church don't produce some "connections". That's a joke. Well, the seance part is a joke. The New Orleans wedding at St. Patrick's Church is not, but wouldn't that be cool if we could actually talk with our ancestors instead of trying to read their minds? [Of course, that would take all the fun out of it...]
So, Do You Have a Nickname?
Now, I'd like to point out that some of the information that my distant cousin has already provided and the info that he is willing to share is exactly what my blog, "Family Stories" is all about. Certainly, names, birth dates, and death dates are welcome and important, but where else would I find out that my Great-Grandfather was affectionately called "Bub" by his sister Ida and "Uncle Bub" by other family members? My Paw Paw called him "Pop" as indicated on her photos of him. So, this is another piece of my great-grandfather's story. [It also makes me think about my loved ones' nicknames for me. Do I have them written down somewhere? Well, the ones that I actually like, that is...]
It's also interesting to note how the info he gave me compliments the info that I've been able to assemble on my own. It reminds me of the "multi-faceted-ness" of family stories. [Yes, I'm making up words now. Just "go" with it.] How, as the family stories are created, the family members are all a part of it as it occurs. Each family member representing a "facet" of the gem ~ the family story, and when the light actually shines on another facet of the family story, well, it's just that more beautiful, is it not?
There's That Word Again...Forgotten
My distant cousin mentioned that his wife put the memorials on Find A Grave "...because she didn't want them forgotten..." And that is what it seems to "boil down to" every time, doesn't it? We want our ancestors and loved ones to not be forgotten. So we search, we write, and we search a little more, then write a little more. All so they won't be forgotten. No matter how they lived. No matter how they died. They will not be forgotten, which is why somehow, someway, and someday Roscoe's children ~ Jack, Bill, Jerry, and Cheryl ~ will have a tombstone...in remembrance. They will not be forgotten and neither will their story.

FROSTBURG, Md. – The York College women's track & field squad finished the first day of competition at the 2012 Capital Athletic Conference Outdoor Track & Field Championships – hosted by Frostburg St. – with a individual victory, a second-place nod, and runners qualify for finals in a pair of sprints. Overall, the Spartans sit third out of the six participating institutions, as the Green and White has amassed 27 points.
Sophomore sensation Laura Rowlands led the way for the Spartans on day one. The talented Rowlands successfully defended her 2011 title in the triple jump with a repeat triumph in 2012. Her trio of bounds at this year's meet totaled 11.71 meters (38' 5"), blasting her winning distance from a year ago (11.25 meters) and setting a new school record in the event.
Rookie Jessica Miller, who finished second in the indoor 5,000 meters at the 2012 CAC Indoor Championships, took down the school record in the 10,000 meters at the outdoor meet. The Spartan freshman ran to a second-place 41:34.07, picking up a valuable eight points for the Green and White, a time that snapped the previous record of 42:00.00 set by Tuesday Wilson last season . Teammate Nicole Danielewicz proved not far behind Miller as the sophomore corralled fifth-place points in the 10K with a time of 42.08.02.
In a pair of sprint-qualifying races, the Green and White saw two runners get through to the finals in both the 100- and 200-meter dash events. Rookie sensation Jasmine Smith ran a strong 12.83 in the 100 to qualify second entering Sunday's finals while classmate Deborah Fidele nabbed third in the preliminaries with a 13.10.
The pair also qualified for the finals in the 200 meters. Smith posted a time of 26.66 to capture fourth heading into tomorrow's 200 final. Fidele secured fifth for the Spartans a she ran to a 26.80.
The pole vault saw Ashley Razzano snag four more points for the Spartan ledger as she took fourth overall in the pole vault. Razzano registered a time of 2.75 meters (9' 0.25"). Dana Mangano took fifth n the triple jump for York with a total distance of 10.39 meters (34' 1.25")
In the throws, Ashley Menniti recorded a sixth-place 34.71-meter toss in the hammer while she took ninth in the shot put at 9.16 meters (30' 0.75"). Junior Katie Shinn took seventh in the hammer with a 33.13-meter (108' 8") toss.
Back on Sunday, the Spartans and the rest of the CAC participating schools will look for a tremendous second and final day of the 2012 CAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships.

After Shane Vereen's second touchdown of the day, it appeared that the rout is on.
It isn't.
Fueled by another long kickoff return from Danieal Manning, the Texans drove 47 yards in five plays to cut the gap from 17-3 to 17-13 at the half, thanks to a one-yard touchdown run from Arian Foster and a 55-yard field goal from Shayne Graham as time expired.
The 10 points, scored in the final 75 seconds of the half, were wrapped around a three-and-out by the Patriots.
Sure, the Texans would prefer to be leading. But it's a far cry from the 21-0 hole into which the Texans fell after the first two quarters five weeks ago.
Tom Brady has 210 passing yards for the Pats, and Wes Welker has caught six for 120 yards. Shane Vereen has 40 yards rushing and 45 receiving to go with his 12 points.
The Patriots will get the ball to start the third quarter. Barring a surprise onside kick from the Texans. Which may not be a bad idea.

Taps is quickly on it's way to becoming the most played song on my iPod. Death has once again visited the burrow. Syrup the mouse (I introduced you to her here) has become the latest Weasel pet to go to the giant hamster wheel in the sky. She was one of a set of tawny and brown mice that resembled the color of Waffles and Syrup ~ hence the names.
Yesterday at about dusk. Eldest came into my bedroom to inform me that Syrup had expired (I hadn't even looked at the date stamped on her butt. This reminds me - check the milk). Her counterpart and companion Waffles seems to be coping well with this tragedy. Eldest informed me, "I told Dad and he didn't even stop playing RockBand. He said we'll take care of it after dinner." I told her that I was sorry and attempted to give her a hug. "You're not going to hug me, are you? It's okay, don't hug me", teens. I don't get them. I agreed that after dinner would be the correct time to handle things, as we were preparing to eat.
Monkey Weasel entered the scene and added her two cents, "Maybe you shouldn't eat first. You know, cause you might ~and proceeded to enact a very flamboyant rendition of losing her cookies, I couldn't control myself from laughing. Thank God that Eldest Weasel had left the room. Then Monkey Weasel looked at me with the sweetest of faces and stated that there is a bright side to this latest visit from the Grim Reaper, "At least I will be able to tell them apart now!" I lost it. The sense of humor around this place is insane.
Services, as usual, will be held on Friday morning. We have chosen a lovely casket. It's a ziplock bag and have vaulted it in a large garbage can in the garage.
I'm beginning to think the Weasels could have successful careers as exterminators. Disagree? Read about our other

LOL. Wait were you in my house? The sentence .."didn't even stop playing RockBand" sounds strangely familiar. ROFL

Don't tell me; Mr. Weasel was playing "Ben".
Maybe you should go rest "Willard" for the kids to see. Get the old one though, with Ernest Borgnine and Bruce Davison.

@ Kat ~ I think this points to how commonplace this type of event is in our house.

Long time lurker referred from the Microblogologisty in Iowa.
First, condolances on the dead rodent.
Second, Microblogologist has an albino mouse you should probably check into getting. While it does have some restrictions and possible side effects, I would think that it would be VERY hard to kill.
Third, I appreciate reading your site. I have to make sure I am not drinking at the time since I lost MtDew up my nose one day. I hope that you are able to find Mr.Weasel paying employment in the midwest without resorting to him commuting to Canada and mailing his paycheck to ChiTown.
If I didn't think she would be so lonely, I would ask Microbloggy woman to send me the FWM and I would have FWM help with our newborn.

@ K'Man ~ I'm glad you're coming around. Micros newest pet cracked me up! I have to ask, which post caused the Mountain Dew incident?
@ Tara ~ and yet we have others that stick around forever. You need some hearty stock to make it here in Weaselville.
@ Chris ~ They are low maintenance (albeit icky) and have a kinship with Weasels. No actual love of mice.

So, now you need to get a little critter named Powdered Sugar? Or perhaps Jam? Or two: Orange Marmalade and Pecans. Mmmmm... pecans...
Our condolences for your loss.

They date stamp those furry things? Well on the bright side, one less mouth to feed.

@ Tom ~ I was thinking sturdy names like Rocky or Boris. Powdered Sugar never seems to go bad though.
@ Mike ~ You just have to lift the tail to see it. and B. Mr. Weasel said that same thing!

Dad didn't stop playing Rock Band? Is this a tactic they learn in Dad school? Sounds like something my husband would do.

Well...you ARE weasels, after all. No rodent is safe around a weasel, are they? Shoot, I have no idea what weasels eat. At least I made an effort to make you laugh.
Miss you...crazy busy with kids/school again this week. Tomorrow night, I might make it home before 7pm. I love "seeing" your smiling face each morning, though. Thanks.

Sorry to hear about your latest casualty. We resorted to the larger of four legged animals(dogs and a cat) for this very reason. Nothing smaller than a chihuahua here. I have a knack for doing away with things that have wings gills or have to live in a cage. Plants aren't my thing either.(killed a cactus)

- nonna said...
what would be the point in stopping rock band? it aint like it was gonna get any less dead if it had to wait awhile for the appropriate action. heck if you left it in there long enough the other mouse would prob eat it and either a)die of same disease or b)not need to be fed for awhile or very small possibility of c)get some dead mouse eating disease and go psycho and escape and turn all the mice into brain eating killers.
what the hell....rock on!
- February 4, 2009 at 12:25 AM

I am cracking up that your husband didn't stop playing Rock band to deal with the tragedy.
So sorry, I will miss the ceremony, but my prayers are with you.

@ Terri ~ as a wise little boy once said "If you get an A in parenting school, you get to be a mom. If you fail, you get to be a dad".
@ Mrs4444 ~ I was hoping for Rodent Solidarity.
@ Momo ~ What is it with Dad's?
@ de-I ~ Think of all the funerals you're missing out on!
@ ohCaptain ~ Great in that she was caged and I didn't have to care for her.
@ Paula ~ We also have 3 Toads, 3 cats a hamster and will inherit a dog someday.
@ nonna ~ and that's why we love you!
@ Sue ~ Don't worry the trashmen will attend.

Once when my kids were young we had a cat die and the kids to assuage their grief insisted on an ancient Egyptian themed funeral. So we decorated a box with scenes of the cat's life in the hereafter - filled the box with food and toys for the cat to play with in the hereafter.

Heh. Poor mouse. I love the burial service, but ummm are you really going to hold onto it until Friday? I hope you're at least putting it out in the once again below zero weather (where DID this come from?) to keep it ummm preserved.
- February 4, 2009 at 8:30 PM
- WeaselMomma said...
@ Momisodes ~ It's a Dad thing. In his defense, Eldest wasn't all broken up about it.
@ de-I & Michelle ~ For clarification, the funeral is on Friday because that is trash day. The ritual we observe, goes like this:
Mr Weasel moves the trash cans to the bottom of the driveway. Then trashmen come and take the mouse (and the other garbage) and load it into the back of their truck. All this while I sip morning coffee and read blogs.

I have a friend that actually kept her guinea pig in the freezer until trash day - of course she forgot and it sat there for a few weeks! (in a bag of course) By all means pitch it now, looking for ground beef and pulling out a stiff mouse - yummy!

Lookin' For Some Skull
In our current disposable society, we have been conditioned to accept the trend of "out with the old and in with the new." Led by the field of electronics, where it's almost always cheaper to replace than repair, we have begun to lose our veneration for things in the past. Fortunately, the hobby of old trucks may be the best exception to that rule. Brad Warren from Parkton, North Carolina, has enjoyed the connection with his first truck for more than a decade. Transforming his Idaho barn find to a trophy magnet has been a series of great highs and occasional lows, but the rejuvenation process shows no signs of slowing anytime soon. First making the connection at the ripe old age 15, Brad and the $900 '67 C-10 went to high school together. Best of Show trophies would not make their appearance for many years, but Brad knew the potential was there from the outset.
Most of the early upgrades were limited by the budget, but eventually his job as a carpenter began to pay off-money became available, and the truck began receiving the attention it deserved. Starting from the bottom up, suspension and drivetrain changes began with a huge 10-inch C-notch in the rear, with a reversed four-link of Brad's own design. The new air suspension gave his truck the sought-after, rocker-scrapin' profile, thanks to Firestone 2,500-pound bags in the front and Firestone 2,600-pound versions in the rear. Carefully orchestrating all the changes, Brad made his own brackets during the install. A pair of 450 Viair compressors, a 5-gallon reserve tank, and 3/8-inch lines and valves completed the package and put the altitude under the driver's control. Stopping power comes from Classic Performance Products (CPP) 12-inch disc brakes attached to CPP 2.5-inch dropped spindles. Monroe shocks smoothed the ride and a competition-oriented, 20-gallon fuel cell modernized the gas tank.
Once the chassis could handle more torque, the original 283-inch V-8 was replaced with a four-bolt LS9 350 mated to a beefed Turbo 400 transmission. The engine was fitted with a Lunati cam, Edelbrock 600 carb, Power Plus intake, HEI ignition, Pete Jackson gear drive, and 2.5-inch Hedman Hedders feeding Flowmaster mufflers. The 14-inch electric fan and Griffin radiator kept temps in the green. Everything under the hood was either painted or polished with the combination of cool cosmetics and more than 300 hp, adding a healthy dose of youthful enthusiasm to the 40-year-old truck.
The bumper-to-bumper body makeover began with shaving virtually everything on the exterior-including emblems, door handles, and driprails. Brad molded the front bumper to the body, created the new square grille opening and grille bars, smoothed the cowl, and added Diamond Blue Dot headlights. The old bed was a little too far gone to salvage and was replaced by a newer, late-model Chevy version, tubbed to clear the large 20×8 Centerline Rapid Tomahawk rims and Kumho 40-series rubber. Using 4×8-foot sheets of poplar cut into strips, Brad created the bed floor and custom cover over the bridged rear axle. A smooth rear pan, canted license plate, and Cadillac taillights brought the looks of the truck into the new millennium.
Brad began the makeover of the interior with a new sheetmetal dash and white Dolphin gauge package. Third-row, tan leather seats liberated from a 2000 Yukon were just the right size and color to blend with the tan carpet and planned bright yellow exterior. Since a stereo is always a hot addition to a cool custom truck, Brad chose the XO Vision head unit with a 7-inch screen that handles CDs, DVDs, and MP3s. Power for the system comes from the pair of Sony Xplod 2-channel amplifiers behind the seats pumping out more than 1,200 watts. The unique fiberglass center console holds a pair of 10-inch Sony subs, augmented by a pair of 6.5-inch components set in the kick panels, and two 6×9 speakers in the doors. The interior also features the scariest set of armrests (literally!) you ever saw, blending in perfectly with the skull switch box that controls the air suspension. The theme is repeated in the skeleton-and-ghost-theme exterior paint, sprayed by Brad's friend, Eddy Boyles from Air Graphics in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Beginning with bright PPG Yellow Pearl, the pearl and candy graphics are a combination of orange, silver, tan, and green.
The completed truck has become a regular Best of Show winner on the Southeastern show scene, and although Brad may finally have his first custom truck complete, the odds are good that it may never be finished.

In other news, I've found 1 more project that was lazing around the house. I still fear what I'll find when I dig deeper into the studio. But, I don't have to worry about that now that I'm sifting through my stash for the FWQAL blocks. The fabric piles are multiplying like bunnies.
Anyway, today is another edition of WIP Wednesday hosted at Lee's place.
New Projects

Oliver's I Spy Quilt
2 Bee Blocks and an Angel Block!
Bee Blocks left to do = zero (which seems like a crazy number since I'm in 4 bees)

I think I need to make this into a pillow soon.
Gift Quilt (no peeking)
Pink and Red Baby Quilt
Henry's Growth Chart
Hand Pieced Ball--why does this have to be so lumpy??? Does anyone have hints for how to get this less lumpy?
Dream On postage stamp quilt along--this one seems prettier in the photo than in person.
What does that tell you?

When pre-retirement clients asked Brett Horowitz when they should optimally take their Social Security benefits, the Evensky Katz financial advisor did not stop at the break-even analysis that conventional financial planning research advises. Rather, Horowitz read every article he could find and discovered some unconventional, and potentially lucrative, approaches involving "restricted applications" and a "file and suspend" procedure, the subjects of an AdvisorOne article published last week. He then contacted experts to confirm these strategies.
Thusly armed, Horowitz arrived at his local Social Security Administration office in Miami seeking official confirmation he could help his clients maximize their benefits. A group of five people gathered around him and shot down most everything on his question list. "They didn't know what I was taking about," Horowitz said.
Not giving up, Horowitz then contacted Social Security Administration HQ, where someone checked and came back to him with a thumbs up.
When it came time to put this now doubly confirmed information into practice, Horowitz (left) went with his clients to the Miami Social Security Administration office and presented his case. "We wanted to file a restricted application," whereby a husband or wife who is deferring retirement can claim an additional 50% of the income that the spouse receives (if the spouse has reached full retirement age). "They said, 'I don't think this is possible.' We left her materials," he said. The local office investigated the matter, and ended up educating the whole office in these Social Security secrets.
"I'm grateful that the local office in Miami now knows about these rules. I don't blame them [for not having known]. Very few people take advantage of these strategies," Horowitz says. "The average [clerk] may not see one a year."
For a firm the size of Evensky Katz, with some 250 clients, there might not be more than a couple of dozen clients who have not yet elected Social Security benefits, for whom this kind of advice is relevant. But this is the kind of service Horowitz says enables his firm to add value in ways that other advisors are not.
For other retiring clients, Horowitz is conducting research on reverse mortgages to see if they might be a viable cash management tool. For clients unwinding a business, Evensky Katz will refer them to private equity firms, always providing at least two firms to choose from. The firm also makes referrals to Medicare consultants.
"We'll look over the life insurance quotes and powers of attorney," he adds, noting that clients may have a durable power of attorney assigning rights to a spouse that seems well and good, but does not meet the requirements of the firm's custodian, Schwab. So he makes sure such documents are approved by Schwab before they might be needed.
It is in that spirit that Horowitz created his spreadsheet to test multiple Social Security strategies in conjunction with client inputs such as the age, income and life expectancy of the spouses. He's been approached by other firms interested in purchasing the analytical tool, but says the software is not for sale.
Besides the "restricted application" and "file and suspend" techniques enabling couples to substantially boost spousal benefits, Horowitz advises retirement clients on other little known Social Security strategies. For example, while it is widely known that working while collecting Social Security can reduce the recipient's benefits, the Evensky Katz advisor tells clients the aspect of this rule they rarely hear is that any lost benefits are credited back to the recipient. "You never want to avoid working," he says.
Horowitz explains the rules as follows. For a person who has reached full retirement age (currently 66), working is a nonissue: Even if the Social Security recipient earns millions of dollars, he will not lose a penny in Social Security benefits. A person who starts taking benefits at, say, 62, will similarly not lose a penny in benefits if his earnings are $14,640 or less.
What is less well understood is that if earnings are greater than that amount, the resulting $1 lost for every $2 earned above the limit is only temporary. After the recipient reaches full retirement age, he recovers credit for any lost benefits and may even be eligible for a higher level of benefit depending on how much he earned. Consequently, a 62-year-old with ideas for starting a business may find Social Security an ideal way to gain some income support while testing the market, and with no risk of lost benefits.
Another strategic concern Horowitz discusses with clients is the idea that husband and wife have to look at how their receipt of benefits will affect one another. For example, a higher-earning husband who takes benefits early must know that he is reducing his lower-earning wife's survivor benefits for the balance of her life. "If you're taking benefits at 62, you're locking in those benefits for your spouse," he says.
In the past, many couples who failed to understand all these rules could avail themselves of a "do-over." The Social Security Administration used to allow people to repay the entirety of benefits they received and receive higher benefits at a later time. In essence, people were able to get an interest-free loan from the government for the years they collected benefits.
While most people seem to think the do-over is dead, Horowitz says it's just on life-support. It is still available but applies only within the first 12 months of retirement, and recipients no longer get credits that can be recaptured while earning benefits. "It's not the sweet deal it had been," Horowitz says.
The bottom line for the Evensky Katz advisor is that Social Security solutions that provide higher cumulative benefits over the client's lifetime add real value to the client relationship.
"They're getting advice from us that they wouldn't get from their former broker or other advisor," Horowitz says. "Clients will sit with me [at the Social Security office] and say, 'Why are you doing this for me? What's in it for [you]?'
"I say 'We're fiduciaries. We're on your side. If you know anyone else who can use our services, please point it out to us.'"
And Horowitz adds that $40,000 in added benefits can offset many years of client fees.
(Editor's Note: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that survivor benefits would be reduced by a higher-earning spouse taking benefits early. It is spousal benefits not survivor benefits.)

A former golf course on the Northeast Side soon will be transformed into the site of a charter school that hopes to enroll 2,000 college-bound students by the end of the decade.
A former golf course on the Northeast Side soon will be transformed into the site of a charter school that hopes to enroll 2,000 college-bound students by the end of the decade.
Construction is under way on the first of two phases of KIPP Columbus, part of a national network of free, open-enrollment, college-preparatory public schools.
Next school year, the school will accept students in grades K-1 and 5-8, with plans of becoming a K-12 campus serving mostly low-income black and Latino families.
"We are just really excited to expand our impact to serve more kids and are deeply committed to ensuring our kids have the opportunity to go to and through college," said Hannah Powell, executive director of the local facility.
Charter school officials paid $2.3-million to buy the 110-acre property, formerly the Bridgeview Golf Course, from Columbus State Community College.
The first phase of construction includes a 145,000-square-foot school facility.
There is no specific timeline for construction for the second phase, Powell said. The campus is located at 2738 Agler Road.
KIPP, which stands for Knowledge is Power Program, was established in 1994 in Houston, Texas.
It was launched in Columbus in 2008 as KIPP Journey Academy, which currently enrolls more than 300 students in the Linden area.
It has an annual operating budget of $3.5 million.
There are now 141 KIPP schools in 20 states and Washington, D.C., serving more than 50,000 students.
Powell said the program has a strong record across the country.
Nationally, more than 93 percent of KIPP middle school students have graduated from high school, and more than 83 percent of KIPP alumni have gone on to college, she said.
"We believe that all kids can and will learn and we work relentlessly to ensure that every kid receives an excellent college preparatory education," she said.
Powell said the school's program is based on five pillars: high expectations, focus on results, power to lead, more time and choice and commitment.
The typical school day is 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Additional programming, offered from 4 to 7 p.m., includes classroom instruction, as well as physical fitness and arts activities, Powell said.
KIPP's model is based on 49 percent character and 51 percent academic, she said.
"And we work to ensure every kid develops the character, knowledge and skills to be successful in college and life," she said.

Quick Chili with Sweet Potato and Pork Recipe
Your source for quick recipe every single week day.
- Yield:serves 6
- Active time: 45 minutes
- Total time:1 hour
- Rated:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 chipotles en adobo, chopped
- 1 (15-ounce) can fire-roasted whole peeled tomatoes
- 1 medium onion, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
- 2 medium garlic cloves, minced (about 2 teaspoons)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 12 ounces beer (I used a pilsner)
- 2 cups homemade or store-bought low sodium chicken broth
- 1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, drained
- 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained
- Kosher salt
- 4 scallions, ends trimmed, green parts thinly sliced
- Sour cream for serving
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add pork and break up to small pieces with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring often, until well browned, about five minutes. When done remove the ground pork with slotted spoon and set aside. Remove all about two tablespoons of the excess fat.
Combine chipotles and tomatoes in a blender and blend until smooth. Set aside.
Return Dutch oven to medium-high heat until fat is shimmering. Add onion and sauté until soft and translucent. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cumin and chili powder and cook until a thin film begins to form on the bottom of the pan, about 30 seconds. Add chipotle/tomato mixture. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until the liquid has thickened, about five minutes.
Add beer and stock and bring to a simmer. Return the pork and add the sweet potatoes and drained beans to the pot, stirring to combine. Cook until sweet potatoes are tender, fifteen to twenty minutes. Season to taste with salt.
Serve the chili with a sprinkling of scallions and a drizzle of sour cream.

Randy Moss is a member of the FOX Sports team this year, but he was a wide receiver for the 49ers in 2012 and he shared some thoughts about two of his former teammates during a conference call earlier this week.
Moss said that he didn't think quarterback Colin Kaepernick and tight end Vernon Davis developed a "rapport" during the 2012 season, something that Davis wasn't all that shy about saying once Kaepernick took over as the team's quarterback. He had six catches in six games at the end of the season, but things perked up in the playoffs.
After catching one pass in the win over the Packers, Davis had 11 catches in the next two games. Davis doesn't begrudge Moss the right to say what he thinks in his new television role, but that experience as well as spending time with the wide receivers during practice in the spring and summer has him feeling like things are different this time around.
"I feel me and Colin are on a different level than where we were last year," Davis said, via Cam Inman of the Bay Area News Group. "You have to think about it: When a quarterback just steps in, it takes time to learn his receivers. I don't think you can base everything on what happened last year, because a lot can change in six months," Davis said. "Colin is a different man. Some of the things I learned this training camp, I didn't learn last training camp."
It takes time for players to get used to playing with one another and the 49ers offense with Kaepernick was so different than the one they were running with Alex Smith that things were going to be even more difficult in this specific case. The playoff success came at the end of the process, which bodes well for the partnership this season.

2D speech bubble image of a squirrel holding a large object by mouth saying "If I Build It... They Will COME!". Taken in Pasadena, Maryland.
I'm a retired communications instructor/developer, raised on the Eastern Shore of Maryland (USA). I have a wide range of interests which include some artistic talent. My eclectic tastes, thirst for variety, and preference for images over words, eventually lead me through the internet to the world of 3D stereo in 2005. Since I've been with Fine Art America, I've focused primarily on regular photography with a touch of digital manipulation to better compose the images and ideas. Each time I think I've reached a peak, I find myself crossing another threshold that challenges my abilities and talents while paving way to another plateau.

We all know WGBH viewers love food — hence outstanding programs like Simply Ming and Lidia's Italy. And we know you love science, à la Nova. So for a "taste" of how WGBH brings together food and science, check out Nova scienceNOW: The Science of Picky Eaters.
Food and science are a natural combination for chef Ferran Adrià, too. When Adrià came to Boston, it caused quite a stir, not only because of his professional fame – as the father of molecular gastronomy, he is often mentioned as one of the best, most innovative chefs of the world – but also because of the people who brought him here. That would be a team of researchers and faculty at Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Adrià's kitchen is the equivalent of a scientist's laboratory, where he runs experiments, calibrates equipment, and tests materials and ingredients.
This year, Adrià has released Modern Gastronomy A to Z: A Scientific and Gastronomic Lexicon. Organization, apparently, is high on the list of things that make this chef tick. The entries are in alphabetical order, and each listing is subdivided into the following categories as possible:
- What is it?
- Where does it come from? How is it obtained?
- Form (i.e., crystallized product, liquid, etc)
- Additional information
- General uses (in the retail food industry, in restaurants)
- Quantity and instructions for use (maximum/minimum amounts, basic quantity in cooking, instructions for use)
Since professionals cooks, and Adrià in particular, wrote the book, the text has a very practical quality to it. For example, I thumbed to the "T" section of the book and looked up "tannin," the science of which I know a little something about through my experience with wine. Here's how that entry reads:
What are they?
A set of compounds from the group of polyphenols (associated with flavonoids) that are characterized by giving a certain color to some vegetables and for their astringency.
Additional information:
- They are abundant in nature, present in many vegetable products, especially fruit (grapes, etc.), as well as in cocoa, coffee, and tea.
- Tannins are responsible for the astringent nuance in wine as well as in tea, cocoa, and coffee.
- In fruit the astringency caused by tannins reduces with ripening.
- Because they are associated with flavonoids, they are considered antioxidants.
- In addition to the retail food industry, tannin extracts are used in tanning to turn animal skins into leather, and in medicine to prepare astringent substances and to treat burns.
General uses:
- In the retail food industry: wines, tonics, etc.
- In restaurants: in experimentation
That last bit — experimentation in restaurants as a general use — really speaks to the brilliance of this book. The motivation and the freedom to experiment, and having those experiments win critical acclaim, is the driving force and lifelong goal of the author — and, perhaps, readers as well.

I'm looking back on Bouchercon with mixed emotions.
There were many good parts. I was able to touch base with dozens of writers and friends. I had a signing line for a solid hour. I emceed the charity auction and helped raise over eight grand. I gave away over a hundred free drinks at the ITW table. I moderated a standing room only panel and got some big laughs.
But I also heard many negative things about me, some of them from good friends. Those include drinking too much and acting inappropriately, showing off, being loud and obnoxious, trying too hard to be funny, and crossing the lines of good taste.
I've been thinking about these comments---the bad ones. I haven't been focusing on the good ones, because you can't learn from praise. Criticism, however, is a great teacher.
In my profession, being viewed negatively isn't helpful. Public appearances are a time to shine, to make friends, to spread good-will.
While I don't recall insulting or offending anyone personally (though I was drinking Absinthe on the last night of Bouchercon and can't remember much of anything,) I can honestly say that it's never my intention to hurt anyone, ever. Shock them, perhaps. But not anger them.
If I pissed you off, I apologize.
My attitude toward conventions is a simple one; be entertaining. This doesn't mean get up on a table and yell "Joe Joe Joe!" And it doesn't mean push other people out of the limelight so I can step in with my sound bite. But if there's an opportunity to say or do something funny, I always take it, and don't consider the consequences.
When I'm at conventions, I'm a performer.
During the panel that I moderated, I talked very little about my own books. I didn't even introduce myself. I spent most of the panel trying to make the audience laugh.
I received many compliments on that panel when it was over. A day later, I still had people coming up to me, saying that the panel I moderated was the funniest they'd ever seen.
But I also found out that one of my panelists thought it was terrible. "There goes Joe, doing his stand-up comedy routine again," was their comment. And another author came up to me and sarcastically said, "Didn't you do the exact same thing at another conference?"
Well, yeah. It's called a routine. Was I that bad?
I'd kept an eye on my audience and they seemed to be enjoying it. They were laughing and smiling.
I also made sure that the panelists had ample time to talk about their work, and about the topic at hand (the difference between thrillers vs. mysteries.) I even made the audience say the panelists' books out loud, several times each, so they'd remember their titles.
In my mind, we were entertaining for an hour, got some information out there along with the laughs, and the panelists did a great job.
But at least one of the panelists didn't think so. And word-of-mouth got back to me, and I found out that many other authors shared that view. I'm gaining a reputation among my peers as Mr. Obnoxious. And that's not a moniker I particularly like.
On one hand, I know I'm reaching some fans, and making a lot of people laugh.
On the other hand, I'm alienating some fellow writers, who think I'm an unbearable egomaniac with a drinking problem.
While I'm not going to defend myself, I would like to mention that the average conference panel is not a non-stop thrill-ride. I can safely say that I've seen the panelist who disliked my performance on many other panels, and this person always does a wonderful job. But I can't for the life of me remember any of those panels, their topics, or a single thing this person said.
Panels have very little substance to them, very little about them that is memorable.
People remember my panels. I'm not saying that because I'm stuck on myself. I'm saying that because that's what I work very hard to accomplish, and that's what I hear afterward.
The rule in performing is simple: be anything but boring.
So what percent of the population am I allowed to piss off in order to be memorable? Or should I tone it down several notches, and try to act more like a responsible adult?
The only thing I'm 100% sure about is: I'll never drink Absinthe again.
I'd like to hear from folks in general, and folks who went to Bouchercon. Feel free to post anonymously. Feel free to post hearsay. I'd like to hear some negative things about myself.
That's the only way I'll learn.

Good Luck Employers, Your Next Challenge May Be Helicopter Parents
A few years ago, the term "helicopter parents" was coined to describe those rather invasive parents who were extremely involved in their children's college experience, to the point of hovering. (Get it?) According to a new survey, these moms and dads are doing the same thing in their now adult childrens' work lives.
If you remember, these parents would micromanage even the kids' roommate and class schedule selections. Now, according to a Michigan State University survey of more than 700 employers in the process of hiring recent college graduates, these parents are still deeply involved.
The survey found that nearly a third of hiring companies had received resumes from parents. A quarter of the companies had been contacted by parents who urged the employer to hire their kids. And, four percent of companies surveyed said parents had even shown up for their children's interviews.
While some companies find this to be a distracting annoyance, other companies are embracing the involvement, if you can believe that. Consultant Neil Howe said, "You don't want to block the energy of the parent. You just want to channel it in a certain direction."
Car rental giant Enterprise has started to take advantage of the helicopter parent's role as an influencer. Their strategy is to convince the parents that the company has a good culture for growth and let the parents convince possible recruits. Other companies have gotten on board by establishing a "Bring Your Parents to Work" day.
Margaret Feister of Society for Human Resource Management, however, is convinced that too much involvement can backfire. "It definitely does not show great leadership or decision-making skills," she said.

I like this book because it was a fun book to read. I could picture the words in my mind. I think Obi-won is a great character because he does very cool stuff and he is a good Jedi. My favorite part was when Obi-wan Konobi was teaching Luke how to be a Jedi. This book did not remind me of any other book. I think this is a good book because I like Star Wars.
I recommend this book to ages 8-11. I think other kids would like Star Wars: The Life and Legend of Obi wan Konobi because Star Wars is a very interesting book. There were many parts of the book I liked.

2010 Historic Merit Badge Program
From MeritBadgeDotOrg
Revision as of 13:15, March 22, 2010 by Scouterdennis (Talk | contribs)
A merit badge called Computers would sound just a crazy to a 1910 Boy Scout as a merit badge called Tracking sounds to Scouts today. That's because the BSA's list of available merit badges has evolved through the years as the interests of boys have changed.
In honor of the BSA's 100th Anniversary, though, today's generation of Scouts will get the unique opportunity to experience some of the activities their predecessors enjoyed. That's possible thanks to the BSA's new Historical Merit Badge Program, a set of four discontinued merit badges that today's Scouts can earn.
2010 historical merit badges
The basics of the 2010 Historical Merit Badge program include:
- The merit badges will closely resemble the original designs of the merit badges with the exception of the borders. The borders will be embroidered with a shiny gold thread that will be immediately identifiable as a 2010 Historical Merit Badge.
- The original merit badge requirements will be used wherever possible. Exceptions will be made when current safety or social standards dictate. Adaptations can also be made for special needs Scouts.
- The merit badges will count for towards a boy's rank advancement.
- Work on the badges is not to commence prior to January 1, 2010 and is to be finished no later than December 31, 2010.
- The Supply Division will not create or reprint pamphlets for the merit badges. Any and all material will be posted to a special section of the 100th Anniversary web site that can be accessed by the interested boys and their merit badge counselors.

'Draft Day' trades all realism for drama
Kevin Costner has made great sports movies ("Bull Durham" and "Field of Dreams"). He's made good sports movies ("For Love of the Game" and "Tin Cup"). And he's made "Draft Day."
Kevin Costner has made great sports movies ("Bull Durham" and "Field of Dreams").
He's made good sports movies ("For Love of the Game" and "Tin Cup").
And he's made "Draft Day."
That's not necessarily a knock on his latest. It's just that, despite having the cooperation of the NFL, "Draft Day" is barely a sports movie. Unless talking on the phone is considered a sport.
Sonny Weaver Jr. (Costner) is the beleaguered general manager of the Cleveland Browns. The team's owner (Frank Langella) demands he make a splash in the draft. He's butting heads with his new coach (Denis Leary). Fans are calling for his head. And it's only been a week since the death of his father, the legendary coach he fired. Also, Sonny works for the Cleveland Browns.
So when the Seattle Seahawks' front office decides to trade its overall No. 1 pick the morning of the draft, they ask themselves: "Who's the most desperate guy we know?"
That would be Sonny.
Sonny is eyeing Ohio State linebacker Vontae Mack ("42's" Chadwick Boseman) and Florida State running back Ray Jennings (Houston Texans running back Arian Foster). But there's an undisputed franchise player available in Wisconsin's golden-boy quarterback, Bo Callahan (Josh Pence).
Sensing Sonny's needs, Seattle asks for his seventh pick, as well as his first pick in the next three drafts.
"I'm not gonna sell the farm for one guy," Sonny says, rejecting the idea. "Well, you should," he's told. "Your farm sucks."
With his job on the line, Sonny sells that farm and only then begins looking into Callahan's background. What he finds leaves him wrestling with his decision.
"Draft Day" is a curious mix of authenticity for die-hard sports fans and overly simplistic tutorials for moviegoers who know nothing about the NFL.
ESPN's Chris Berman, Jon Gruden and Mel Kiper appear as themselves, as do the NFL Network's Rich Eisen, Deion Sanders and Mike Mayock. Browns legends Bernie Kosar and Jim Brown make cameos. And NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell acts in scenes filmed during last year's draft at Radio City Music Hall.
But then every team Sonny deals with is introduced with an aerial shot of its stadium as well as onscreen graphics ("SEATTLE — HOME OF THE SEAHAWKS"). And on his way into work, Sonny listens as a local sports radio host explains to the city's rabid fanbase that Cleveland is a sports town and, sure, its teams lose a lot, but Clevelanders love them anyway. What station is this? 1080-AM, The Exposition?
Since nothing takes a viewer out of a movie like fictional teams, "Draft Day" has all the right licensing deals in place. The movie wouldn't work at all if Sonny ran, say, the Cleveland Grind, or Callahan attended Northeastern Wisconsin State Polytechnic A&M. But, then, all that authenticity is nearly undone by having the movie's plot hinge on Super Bowl XLVIII champions Seattle — HOME OF THE SEAHAWKS, lest you forget — being desperate for both a good quarterback and a winning season.
Not content to just focus on the draft itself, "Draft Day's" writers, playwright Rajiv Joseph and newcomer Scott Rothman, pile on plenty of other complications for Sonny. With the news that the team is looking at Callahan, the Browns' current quarterback ("Smallville's" Tom Welling) starts acting out. Leary's Coach Penn openly rebels. The Browns' owner is breathing down Sonny's neck. There's even some shtick involving the team's intern (Griffin Newman).
Most egregiously, though, "Draft Day" has Sonny's girlfriend, Ali (Jennifer Garner), choose the morning of the draft to tell him she's pregnant and has his mom (Ellen Burstyn) show up with his late father's ashes, demanding to scatter them on the practice field while Sonny reads a Gaelic prayer, just hours before the draft.
These are smart women who know football, who understand the delicate balance of draft day. Heck, Ali is responsible for keeping the team under the salary cap and even makes a speech about how football is in her blood. There's just no way they would do this on the most important day of Sonny's year.
The obvious comparison to "Draft Day's" behind-the-scenes approach is "Moneyball." But at least that movie could rely on the drama of actual games throughout a season. By taking place entirely, as the title suggests, on draft day, what little football footage there is exists in the form of recruiting reels.
Since the closest thing to action involves Sonny's talking on the phone with other GMs, players and coaches, director Ivan Reitman tries to inject a little energy with a series of split screens that just prove distracting. Characters overlap and encroach into each others' screens. At one point, someone walks from his own screen on the right, through the one on the left, and into a third, new screen farther left.
It's as though Reitman doesn't trust the material to be interesting enough on its own. Which makes sense, because writers Joseph and Rothman take a kitchen sink approach to that material.
Is it a drama? Is it a comedy? Is it a love story? Is it a rumination on what it means to take a stand and be your own man?
Whatever "Draft Day" ultimately is, a great sports movie isn't part of that equation.

Release Details
On August 14, 2009, new requirements of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) will take effect that are aimed at making children's products safer and increasing consumer confidence in the marketplace. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is educating domestic and overseas manufacturers, importers, and distributors of children's products and other consumer goods of these important new safety requirements.
CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum said the CPSIA's new requirements will help protect families and she urged businesses to comply. "I will ensure that these requirements are enforced vigorously and fairly," said Tenenbaum. "By ensuring that toys and other children's products meet strict lead limits and can be tracked in the event of a recall, I believe children will be better protected in their homes."
The requirements that become effective on August 14 include:
- Lead Content
The limit for lead in children's products drops from 600 parts per million (ppm) to 300 ppm. After August 14, it will be unlawful to manufacture, import, sell, or offer for sale, a children's product that has more than 300 ppm of lead in any part (except electronics) that is accessible to children.
- Lead in Paint and Similar Surface Coating Materials
The limit for lead in paint and similar surface-coating materials for consumer use drops from 600 ppm to 90 ppm. The lead paint limits also apply to toys and other articles intended for children as well as certain furniture products. Products subject to these limits cannot be sold, offered for sale, imported or manufactured after August 14 unless they meet the new lower lead limits.
- Civil Penalties
Civil penalties increase substantially to a maximum of $100,000 per violation and up to a maximum of $15 million for a related series of violations. Previously, civil penalties were a maximum of $8,000 per violation and up to a maximum of $1.825 million for a related series of violations.
- Tracking Labels
Manufacturers must place permanent distinguishing marks (tracking label) on any consumer product primarily intended for children 12 and younger made on or after August 14, 2009. The permanent marks must enable consumers to ascertain basic information, including the manufacturer or private labeler, location, the date of manufacture, and more detailed information on the manufacturing process such as a batch or run number. The permanent distinguishing marks must appear on the product itself and its packaging to the extent practicable. Learn more about the tracking label requirement at www.cpsc.gov/about/cpsia/sect103.html#faqs
- Catalog Advertising
Advertising for certain toys and games intended for use by children from three to six years old must have warnings regarding potential choking hazards to children younger than three. The requirement to include warnings in Internet advertisements went into effect on December 12, 2008. There was a grace period for the requirement for catalogues and other printed materials, but this grace period expired August 9, 2009. All catalogues and other printed materials distributed on or after August 9, 2009, regardless of when they were printed, must include the appropriate warnings.
Visit CPSC's Web site at www.cpsc.gov/about/cpsia/cpsia.html for more information about the agency's successful implementation of the CPSIA.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical or mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to help ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household chemicals -– contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 40 years.
Federal law bars any person from selling products subject to a publicly-announced voluntary recall by a manufacturer or a mandatory recall ordered by the Commission.
To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury go online to www.SaferProducts.gov or call CPSC's Hotline at 800-638-2772 or teletypewriter at 301-595-7054 for the hearing impaired. Consumers can obtain news release and recall information at www.cpsc.gov, on Twitter @USCPSC or by subscribing to CPSC's free e-mail newsletters.

How Many More Years Will Mike Miller Play in the NBA?
As the Heat and Spurs get ready for Game 3 of the NBA Finals, Tuesday night at 7:00pm, on ESPN 99.1, there are plenty of unanswered questions about the outcome of this series.
Another question that will be answered after the series is the status of Mitchell native Mike Miller, who has re-discovered his shooting touch in the finals, scoring nine points on three 3-pointers in Game 2, Sunday.
Miller has two years remaining on his contract in Miami, but has been hampered by a series of injuries during his 12-year NBA career.
As he looks ahead now, Miller doesn't see retirement in his near future. He told Shams Charania/Real GM:
I feel I have four, five seasons left in me.
That might have something to do with the fact I haven't played.
Sometimes, there's light at the end of the tunnel, even when you're frustrated.
I feel great, so hopefully it stays that way.
Miller is 33, and averaged 5 points on 42 percent three-point shooting this season. He averaged just 15 minutes a game in 2012-13, less than half of the minutes he averaged in Washington just three seasons ago, but his 59 games played this season are the most for Miller in five years.
