With Street Stocks, UARA Late Models, and Trucks, NASCAR's return weekend to Rockingham was a home run for the track owner Andy Hillenburg.
Left for dead in 2004, the track known as "The Rock" is enjoying a resurgence under the leadership of an ex-driver who had never promoted a race before winning the track at auction
Andy Hillenburg hasn't driven in a NASCAR race since 2004. In 29 starts combined between the Cup, Nationwide and Truck Series, he has one Top-5 finish (at Daytona in 1999). He was almost always racing in equipment that required him to struggle just to make races.
But for one Sunday in April of this year, Hillenburg became NASCAR racing's favorite son. Of course, Hillenburg has always been a popular figure among knowledgeable racing fans and competitors in the garage area because of his friendly nature and blue-collar attitude, but when Hillenburg brought NASCAR racing back to the track known as "The Rock" after an 8-year absence he reached a level of popularity that can only be described as "Earnhardt-like."
And that's no exaggeration. NASCAR President Mike Helton said Hillenburg was the "Governor of North Carolina for a day." Many reporters who normally travel with the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series skipped the Saturday race at Texas in order to be in tiny Rockingham, North Carolina, for the Sunday truck race because they considered it the bigger event. And race winner Kasey Kahne, who had flown in from Texas for the race the night before, said he was so excited to drive in a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at the one-mile track he had trouble sleeping the night before.
"I got about four-and-a-half hours of sleep last night, and that was plenty," he said after the win. Coming to The Rock, I was so excited I woke up early . . . and I couldn't go back to sleep. I had tons of energy, but I'll sleep good tonight when I finally decide to go back to sleep."
The story of how Hillenburg revitalized Rockingham Speedway has all the elements of a Hollywood production–the unlikely hero, the track that had been abandoned and left to die because of corporate greed, the townsfolk who banded together for a common cause–except it's all true.
Rockingham Speedway, at the time known as North Carolina Motor Speedway, held two races every year for NASCAR's top series from 1966 until 2004. But that was also the time of NASCAR's great track-building boom, and the available facilities soon began to outstrip viable dates. Unfortunately for The Rock, the track is located in Rockingham, North Carolina, a city that has struggled since the cotton mills, which had been the lifeblood in that area, moved overseas in the '70s and '80s. The area simply didn't have the population density of a major metropolitan center. So in 2004, in a series of moves, International Speedway Corp stripped one of The Rock's race dates and gave it to California Speedway, then sold the facility to Speedway Motorsports Inc (SMI) which immediately petitioned NASCAR to give the track's last remaining race date to Texas Motor Speedway.
Within a year, one of the most historic tracks in NASCAR had been unceremoniously stripped of its race dates and mothballed. It stayed that way until 2007 when SMI sold the track and the grounds it sat on at auction. Many thought the facility had seen its last days as a racetrack and its greatest value was to sell off the stands as scrap.
But that's when Hillenburg came into the picture. The former driver who had transitioned into the owner of the Fast Track Racing School put in a surprise winning bid of $4.4 million dollars and immediately began laying out plans to turn The Rock back into a functioning racetrack.
Hillenburg renamed the track "Rockingham Speedway" although most still simply refer to it as "The Rock." The first race at the revamped track was an ARCA event in May of 2008, and it made quite a statement about how Hillenburg planned to operate. The "Carolina 500" paid the highest purse of any ARCA event that year and started an astounding 50 cars.
But the track also quickly became known as a haven for Street Stockers. Hillenburg partnered with Frank Kimmel to bring the nine-time ARCA champ's Street Stock racing series to the one-mile track. The Frank Kimmel Street Stock Nationals have raced several times at Rockingham, both as support races and main events, and have proven quite popular. Kurt Busch has even driven in one of the races in a car built originally by Circle Track.
Besides racing, Hillenburg also looked to other avenues to make the track financially viable. The track became a home base of sorts for Hillenburg's Fast Track Racing School, but the facility was also rented out as a location for movies and, because it wasn't a NASCAR facility, it also became a popular destination for Cup teams looking to test without having it count against their NASCAR limits. Testing at Rockingham Speedway became so popular that Hillenburg even built a second track that was a clone of Martinsville behind the backstretch grandstands that was nicknamed "Little Rock."
Of course, all those steps helped prove to the powers-that-be at NASCAR that Rockingham Speedway was a good option for hosting another race. Over the years several tracks have lost NASCAR dates including North Wilkesboro, Ontario, Riverside and others; none have ever earned back a NASCAR date. But that streak was broken when NASCAR awarded Rockingham a Camping World Truck Series event for April 2012.
Welcoming NASCAR back to Rockingham meant Hillenburg continued the pace of improvements to the facility. That included installing Safer Barriers which NASCAR requires for any of its touring series. Hillenburg also set about rebuilding the track's place in the community.
"There were a lot of hurt feelings in the community when NASCAR left. After all (Rockingham was), at the core of NASCAR for many years," he says. "And then, all of a sudden, they didn't have NASCAR at all, and like I said, that left a lot of people with hurt feelings. Still, when the opportunity came to host a Truck race, this community really pulled together and that made the difference. It takes a lot of people just to open the doors, and everybody's job is important. There's no way we could have pulled this off if the community hadn't really pitched in.
"Just opening up the gates on race morning takes a tremendous amount of manpower," he continues. "We had 75 parking lot attendants, a couple of hundred security personnel, and ushers. I still don't know the count on how many people helped us out running the concession areas. And the thing I'm most proud of is everybody was on the same page. They all wanted it to be successful with the fans, and I am very proud of and thankful for everybody that helped us. The fan response of everyone that I talked to was tremendous. I think that says a lot about the quality of the people in Rockingham and the surrounding area."
Currently, Rockingham Speedway's capacity is right around 30,000, and NASCAR's report for attendance for the Good Sam Roadside Assistance 200 that Sunday afternoon in April was 27,500 people. By all accounts, the weekend was an unqualified success–both in terms of attendance numbers, the quality of the racing on the track, and even customer satisfaction. Many of the fans we spoke with said they enjoyed the "old-school" feel of the event, meaning the race lacked the corporate feel that seems to have overtaken many of the larger tracks hosting NASCAR races.
For his part Hillenburg, who had never promoted a race before becoming the owner of one of the largest sports venues in North Carolina, says it's simply a matter of trying to put on a race that he'd enjoy seeing.
"I'm a blue-collar guy. That's just me. Before you called to talk about the race I was out in the shop working on the bead blaster," he explains. "I want the fans and the teams to really feel appreciated, because racing is what I love and I'm really happy to be in a position to do what I'm doing.
"Don't get me wrong, there's no way I could do this by myself," he continues, "but I was out there helping to clean up trash Sunday evening. I'm not just sitting in an office. I feel like I'm attacking the promotion at Rockingham Speedway from a different angle because I have to. Being hands-on is the only way I know how to do things. I want to be able to meet my race fans. I want to be in the garage talking to my racers. When they opened the gates to the garage area on race morning, I was at the gates with the security staff welcoming all the crews as they came in. Those are my buddies. I like those guys, and I want to be there."
Many of the crews also enjoyed coming back. Butch Hylton is the crew chief for driver Timothy Peters, who left leading the Truck Series standings after a Fifth-Place finish at Rockingham Speedway. Hylton has a lot of experience at The Rock having worked for many years on Cup teams including those of Bobby Labonte and Kevin Harvick, but he says many of the crew members on the Truck team are younger and had never experienced the one-mile track in the North Carolina sandhills.
"It was good to go back," he says. "You remember the trip down there–there's a back way down there from Charlotte that's a nice drive through the country, and it's just a nice trip. And when you get there, although it may be a little bit rougher it's still the same old Rockingham. It's still going to make you work if you are going to be fast around that track for long runs. I know I really enjoyed the chance to go back there, and a lot of the guys on the team are younger and had never raced there so it was fun to show them what The Rock was all about.
Of course, a lot has changed since NASCAR has last raced at The Rock, too. Hylton says his old setup books are only good for doorstops now. "When we raced there the last time in 2004, we weren't coil binding yet like we are now. We were still racing conventional setups back then which is a lot easier but not as fast with these trucks. So finding out the best combination for these trucks now is completely different from what we were doing back then. And it turns out Rockingham can be pretty rough when you are riding around with the front springs in coil bind. It made for some pretty interesting racing, that's for sure."
As this went to press, there was still no word on whether NASCAR would be returning to The Rock in 2013 (all track contracts are handled on a year-to-year basis). But it's hard to imagine NASCAR turning its back on the resurgence of this track. For his part, Hillenburg, who always seems to deflect any credit away from himself and toward others, thinks The Rock is ready for bigger and better things.
"I'm really proud of our team's effort," he says. "It was a huge accomplishment to pull off this race with a small staff of people. And the race teams put on a great show for the fans. But I feel that now that we've been through one, we can do even better next year."

|François Marie Perrin du Lac, a
French émigré, was an administrator in Saint Domingue during the time of the
revolution and
fought on the side of the colonials against Toussaint L'Ouverture. In 1791, he accompanied French officials
to the United States to seek help from Congress to combat the insurrection. Prevented from returning to
France as a result of the war between France and England, he traveled through the United States and
explored the southern and western states, visiting Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, Illinois, Maryland, and
Pennsylvania. The result of this journey was his Travels Through the Two Louisianas, and Among the
Savage Nations of the Missouri; Also, in the United States, Along the Ohio, and the Adjacent Provinces, in
1801, 1802, & 1803, published in London in 1807.
Like a number of other newcomers or visitors to New Orleans, du Lac found more to criticize than to praise.
His chapter on the city during the last days of Spanish rule begins, "New Orleans, at which I arrived in six
weeks, does not merit a favorable description." du Lac found the city dirty, smelly, and unhealthy, the
Spanish officials corrupt and foolish, the clergy debauched, and the Creoles vain and overly fond of
pleasure. Nevertheless, he lamented the loss of the French empire in the New World. On the page shown
here, he lists the income derived by Spain from the Louisiana colony (and hints that if not for Spanish
corruption and mismanagement, the colony could provide far more riches).

SA Barbarians (South) v England, Kimberley, June 13
England second string out to catch the eye
ESPN Staff
June 12, 2012
Scrum-half Danny Care is poised for a return to England colours in Kimberley © Getty Images
England's will be confident of notching their first tour success when they tackle the SA Barbarians (South) in Kimberley on Wednesday.
Stuart Lancaster's fringe players will have the chance to impress at the GWK Stadium and force their way into the reckoning for Saturday's clash with South Africa at Ellis Park in Johannesburg. England's tour kicked off with a 22-17 defeat to the Springboks in Durban last weekend.
Many international players have previously featured for the Barbarians including France's Philippe Sella, Argentina's Hugo Porta and Ireland's Fergus Slattery, but on this occasion the side will be made up of players from the second tier of the Currie Cup competition. They will be coached by Mpumalanga Pumas mentor Jimmy Stonehouse.
It is the first of two mid-week clashes with a second match against the SA Barbarians (North) set to follow in Potchefstroom ahead of the 3rd Test clash between England and South Africa in Port Elizabeth on June 23.
Barbarians - Player to Watch: Bok 7s star Cornal Hendricks racked up 20 tries during the most recent HSBC Sevens World Series competition and will be a key attacking weapon for the Barbarians.
Barbarians - Team News: EP Kings centre Wayne Stevens will captain a side that also features his club-mate Mpho Mbiyozo at openside. The team includes a total of eight players from Boland, who won the Currie Cup First Division title last year, and a seven from beaten finalists the Kings. In addition there are three each from SWD and Border and one from the Pumas.
England - Player to Watch: Scrum-half Danny Care will surely be out to impress in his return to England colours. The Quins No.9 saw his Rugby World Cup hopes dashed by injury before he was dropped ahead of the Six Nations due to a series of off-field incidents.
England - Team News: It's all change for England following the defeat to the Boks. Matt Mullan and Paul Doran Jones will pack down either side of Joe Gray in the front row with skipper George Robson and Graham Kitchener packing down behind. James Haskell, Carl Fearns and Thomas Waldrom make up the back-row. Charlie Hodgson and Danny Care will pull the strings, Anthony Allen and Jordan Turner-Hall feature in midfield with a back three of Alex Goode, George Lowe and Christian Wade providing the firepower. David Strettle was meant to start on the wing but Lowe was a late addition with England citing Saturday's Test as the reason behind the late change.
Key Battle: Both sides are packed with pace so if the game opens up then expect both sets of wingers to get plenty of ball.
Trivia: Founded in 1960, the SA Barbarians were the first multi-racial South African rugby team to tour outside the country when it visited the United Kingdom in 1979.
Stats: Following this game, only two members of England's 44-man squad will have not seen any action - winger Ugo Monye and prop Alex Corbisiero.
Quote Unquote:
"This game is one way we have identified to revive the [Barbarians] club and to enable it to re-establish its position as a contributor to rugby in South Africa." - Saru's chief executive Jurie Roux
"There is nothing better as a coach than working with players on the training field or judging them and working with them at games, seeing their reaction at full-time or half-time and playing in different environments" - England coach Stuart Lancaster
Prediction: A strong England side should ensure the tourists open their account on tour and claim some much-needed momentum ahead of the second Test with the Springboks on Saturday.

Cruise Holidays of Lakeville
(888) 506-5060
To maximize your cruise experience, it is important to carefully consider what you will need, when you will need it, and then pack accordingly. While a camera, swimsuit and sunscreen are basic essentials on most cruise vacations, there are some items that are must-haves for making your vacation comfortable and enjoyable.
Day OneFor the first day of your cruise, you should pack a small carry-on bag with your travel documents, a change of clothes, medications you may need, and any other essentials you will need prior to your checked bags arriving in your stateroom. Jewelry and laptops are items that you may bring onboard, but may be best carried on with you during embarkation/debarkation.
Onboard AttireOnboard Attire is fairly standard, but may vary from cruise line to cruise line.
Shore ExcursionsIf you are considering any shore excursions, you'll need to plan your dress accordingly based on the activity. A light jacket, comfortable shoes, and binoculars may be among the items you wish to bring.
Dinner AttireDinner attire can vary greatly between cruise lines, so be sure to confirm with Your Personal Cruise Expert the dress code for your particular sailing. Attire can be casual, informal, or formal. Casual nights typically require sport shirts and slacks for men and sundresses or pants for women. Informal nights would require jackets and ties for men and dresses or pantsuits for women. Formal nights require suits and ties or tuxedos for men and cocktail or formal dresses for women. Some cruise lines offer formal rentals onboard, so consult Your Personal Cruise Expert for details.
Packing for a long cruise can be a daunting task with airline and luggage restrictions. Try to bring items that you can mix and match together. Bringing items that can turn three outfits into five or six will save space. Wearing your bulkiest or heaviest shoes during embarkation and debarkation is a great space saver. With all that you will be packing, be sure to leave a little extra space or bring an extra small bag for any gifts or purchases made onboard or at your destinations.
A few other items may make your trip more enjoyable:
Some things not to pack are:

A few community members have donated funds to keep ODN online through at least June 2019. That's 5 more months (including this month, February). Our monthly upkeep for our host is $20 / month. Thanks to those who have donated. I'll refrain from naming names unless I'm told I'm allowed to release them.
/// end update ///
Hey guys, this is an important update about the status of ODN.
My original intent (if you recall, from months and months ago) was to revamp ODN with new software and new debate systems. However, I've decided that I just don't have the energy or time to do this major overhaul. As a result, I do believe it is time to take ODN down for good. If it were free, I'd have no problem leaving it up for those who still frequent it. But I'm paying each month to keep it alive, and it's something I don't use, visit, or have interest in any longer. Instead of selling it, I plan to make a backup of that database (just in case I ever decided to do something with it down the road) as it would be nice to preserve all these discussions we've had over the years. I will then take the site offline and move the domain name over to a different server that for a while, will just have a splash page, maybe give a brief explanation (for those older members who visit it well after this announcement), and a link to a new project.
That being said, I've started a new project, one that takes considerably less time and energy for me, but also one that takes considerably less server resources (making its cost next to nothing). I'll link to it once it is a little more fleshed out. It's essentially an aggregate site for sources about a particular event (current or historical) or topic that is frequently discussed in social media, but are used to set the discussion straight and shut down misleading or outright false statements and arguments. It's not a Wiki, it's not list of topical links. It's more like a Snopes site without some of the bias, but allows the inclusion of local events, as it is maintained by the community itself.
The motivation behind this project stems from a discussion I was having with a couple people on NextDoor. It was regarding the problems that a halfway house was causing in a particular neighborhood. Some of the complaints were legit. But one of the biggest, the most focused criticism that a few people had about this halfway house, was about the person who was involved with the organization managing it. A lot of misleading and false statements were made about this person. I don't know the person personally, but what was claimed about him didn't correspond with available public records. It became clear that a smear campaign was underway, and facts didn't seem to matter.
I participated in this discussion for quite some time, primarily asking for sources and facts, focusing on the Socratic Method instead of actually debating. What I would receive in return was hearsay or screenshots of other websites that made similar claims. What I wanted was the actual sources, such as public records. After not getting the proper sources by the opposition, I went to the County Courthouse and obtained them myself. What was actually on public record was quite different that what was being claimed. After pointing this out, and making these public records available to anyone who asked me, the thread created closed the thread, disallowing further discussion between neighbors. They re-opened it temporarily to post screenshots from another random website, didn't offer its source, but it was clear it was not official by any means, then they closed the thread again, thereby, controlling the dialog in an extremely biased, one-sided way.
I received a lot of support from those following the thread's discussion. I decided that instead of having to post a source every once in a while, thus, spreading sources throughout the entire discussion, that it would be so much easier if there was one place where someone could go to review all the facts and sources related to the event and the person in question. No place existed. So I decided to create it.
What this new site will be: A community driven, argument-less, holding site for relative sources and facts that are relevant to a social media discussion which tends to move fairly quickly and involves people of all backgrounds (few with proper critical thinking knowledge or an understanding on how to properly support an argument).
It isn't a debate site. It's not a place to debate X issue, because X issue is already being discussed on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, NextDoor, etc. It's not a place where someone can say "You don't understand Islam, go to this page to learn more." They may as well use any random site or just use Google. It's a place to merely send people to review the available sources and facts that are pertinent to that specific discussion IF that discussion has devolved into a feels > fact exchange. Each page will be dedicated to that particular issue.
A forum will be set up for community members to ask for assistance, discuss technical issues, or best practices. It's doubtful that any sub-forum will be set up to debate a particular topic. Again, that discussion is already supposed to be taking place on social media or elsewhere. This is a repository of sources for the purposes of keeping the discussion on track with proper facts as well as to let the lurkers of that discussion decide for themselves by having access to the relevant news articles or public records (vs 2nd hand sites or blogs).
Once I've completed the page for this particular issue involving the halfway house, and create an FAQ page, I'll consider the site "live" and link it.
I will probably keep ODN up in its current state until January 2019. I definitely won't take it down before then. This way, many of you can save your favorite posts or threads, or have time to get contact information from one another. The new project will have a new database and all members are welcome to join there once member accounts are enabled. It'd be nice to see your ODN name there for familiarity, but it certainly won't be required.
I'll post more information about that site in the near future. Until then, carry on the good fight in the debate forums here at ODN. It's sad to see the site go, but it all good things really must come to an end, and it's ODN's time.

Really good article that you sent us to. I would say that the skill set you gain from growing so much of your own food also adds to the perceived value of the food. Anyone can throw money at a consumer item and buy it, but it takes skill to grow it, maintain it, and tend it. I know this because I unintentionally kill every plant that I come into contact with. Thankfully, I'm better with animals.

Thanks for the link. Gave me much to ponder on today. Sometimes it is good to stop and consider exactly why we do the things we do..

Gardening doesn't interest me and it's doesn't save one money.
Just looked at the web cam, looks like you can take the day off, looks nasty out there.

A great article. Thanks for the link.
Looks like, every day, you're getting closer to getting the green house operational.
Looks like we'll be getting some rain. Hope some makes it out your way.

The ratings are in, and it's time to ask: What went wrong with "X Factor"?
Season 3 of Simon Cowell's singing show got a jump-start on the fall season Wednesday night, but the numbers were pretty close to a disaster. An average of 6.2 million viewers tuned in to the one-hour premiere, good only for an anemic second behind CBS' "Big Brother" (6.7 million) -- and that's with ABC running a repeat of "Shark Tank" (3.6 million). In the key adults ages 18 to 49 demographic, Fox's "X Factor" lost more than one-fifth of its audience compared with last year.
Remember back just before the show launched its first season and Cowell predicted that he was going to beat "American Idol"? Well, that didn't happen, and it's obvious now that it's not going to anytime soon.
So why is "X Factor" going down like a tone-deaf warbler at an audition? Blame it on Cowell, who seems to have no fixed vision for the show.
In season 1, he hoped to rekindle his old "Idol" magic with former judge Paula Abdul, only to find that viewers had moved on beyond their warring-siblings act (he wasted no time canning Abdul, fellow judge Nicole Scherzinger and host Steve Jones once the season wrapped). Last year, the show turned into a deliberately crass, over-the-top, "Hellzapoppin"-style revue, with virtually every segment buffed and manipulated to beat a certain emotion out of viewers.
This year, the producers have decided to move back to the format's amateur-hour roots. The idea is to focus on those who truly need a break -- such as Wednesday's heartstring-tugging 54-year-old mom Lillie McCloud, above -- as opposed to more jaded singers who've already been through a busted record deal or two.
What is "X Factor"? Well, what would you like it to be?
True, you could argue that the singing-show format has simply gotten too crowded, what with "Idol" and "The Voice" also competing for viewers. But Cowell had a clear shot competitively this week, and the show belly-flopped anyway.
In Britain, "X Factor" was a much bigger hit. Cowell was able to leverage the contestants' personal lives and scandals into tabloid fodder that fed viewership. But the U.S. is a much larger, more cluttered TV market. And "X Factor" had the luxury of years to build its audience, after it drove "Pop Idol" -- the British version of "American Idol" -- out of the market.
Cowell brought on new judges Paula Rubio and Kelly Rowland to the stateside version this year. If the ratings keep dropping, don't be surprised if the master of media manipulation starts talking program reinvention yet again.
But that's one act that needs to be sent packing. And the repercussions will extend far beyond Cowell and his mini-empire. Fox has spent more than a decade relying on singing shows. After this week's ratings, it's clear that era is quickly winding down.
What do you think of "X Factor"?

Square Roots In DFSORT
MartinPacker 11000094DH Visits (13809)
DFSORT's Arithmetic operators can do many things but the one thing they can't do is take the square root of a number. You might think that's minor but it means you can't calculate a Standard Deviation. (Variance is fine but dimensionally not so nice when used in conjunction with the Mean.) And I needed Standard Deviation in a real live customer situation. So I set out to "roll my... [More]

Einstein and the Poet: In Search of the Cosmic Man
Branden Press, 1983 - Biography & Autobiography - 151 pages
Professor Hermanns interviewed Einstein in Germany before World War II, and in America after the War. They explored the nature of the cosmic man, but often discussed the horrors of the Holocaust and the implications of the atomic bomb. These verbatim conversations are published for the first time herewith. Einstein and Professor Hermanns knew too well Hitlers visionary goal which was to make men automatons and strict followers of Nazism. Unwilling to succumb to Nazism as well as fulfilling his desire to survive rather than becoming himself a victim of the Holocaust, Einstein fled to America, where he explored the nature of man and mans potential to achieve new heights as human beings. In his candid revelations, Einstein transcends physics and enters into a new sphere of humanismone of a single humanity based on dignity. The theme throughout the four conversations surrounds the issue against a recurrent Anti-Semitism, especially that conducted by the Nazi.

The Marvelous Museum: A Project by Mark Dion
(September 11, 2010-March 6, 2011)
Mounting a unique expedition through the Museum-s art, history, and
natural science collections, conceptual artist Mark Dion will create
multiple site-specific installations and interventions throughout the
art galleries, drawing upon the overlooked orphans, curiosities, and
treasures from the collections. Many of these objects date back to
OMCA-s predecessor institutions and, while they often lie outside of
OMCA-s California focus, still tell a rich and interesting story of how
museum collections are assembled over time. OMCA Senior Curator of Art
Rene de Guzman curates this first major West Coast presentation of
Dion-s work, which will be accompanied by a publication by Chronicle
Books in partnership with The Believer magazine.

understanding and appreciation of this Meso-American tradition, as well
as provide a forum for the tradition to grow and expand its vocabulary
through new artistic expressions.

vestments. The exhibition will showcase 125 objects from collections in
Mexico, the US, and Europe, including many from the missions
themselves. OMCA is the only California venue for this traveling
exhibition and one of only two in the United States.

UMBC (5-12, 1-3 America East) will try to shake off a dreadful performance at UNH on Wednesday, as the Retrievers shot only 27.5 percent from the floor and committed 19 turnovers in a 56-42 loss to the Wildcats. They face a red-hot Vermont (9-8, 3-0 AE) squad that has won five straight, including an 83-46 rout at Maine on Thursday. Gary Stein and Paul Mittermeier have the call on Q1370 (www.q1370.com) and streaming is available on www.umbcretrievers.tv. The America East digital network is now available on most mobile devices.
The Retrievers have been a completely different team at home and on the road this season. At home, UMBC is 5-1, have averaged 77.2 points per game and are outrebounding their foes by 7.2 caroms per game. On the road (0-11), the Retrievers average 63.3 points per game and are at -5.2 on the glass. FR G Rodney Elliott is still on a record-scoring pace for first-year Retrievers, averaging 14.1 points per game.
Vermont, the pre-season America East favorite, routed Maine, 83-46 in Bangor on Thursday evening. The Catamounts hit nearly 58 percent from the floor and outscored Maine in the paint, 38-14. SR F Clancy Rugg leads UVM with 14.4 points per game, while SR G Sandro Carissimo follows at 13.5 ppg. Rugg is hitting 56.5% from the floor, and Carissimo is at 46 percent from behind the arc.
The Retrievers have a quick turnaround, as they face 2013 regular season champion Stony Brook on Monday, Jan. 20 at 2:00 p.m. The game will be televised nationally by ESPNU.

We are a family of traditions and one of the first traditions we started (with my Mom and my sister) was our tree trimming dinner. We have made the exact same dish every year since 1994. We gather together to trim the tree, exchange this year's ornaments and enjoy the start of the Christmas season. This year was a lot of fun and our tree is the most beautiful tree we've ever had (we say that every year, don't you?).
While I cooked dinner and Bryce strung the lights on the tree the children decorated tree shaped cookies with my Mom.
In addition to the ornaments we gave the children, they each got an ornament from Gran and Grandpa and from Grandma. Grace got two lovely fairies and Harris got a pirate and an owl with moving wings. Those were the first ornaments to go on the tree!
Our traditional dinner of Pasta with Ginger Prawns.
Putting up the tree was a little more difficult than normal. Our stand and the hole that was drilled in the tree weren't compatible and so our tree wouldn't stand up straight. It was a family effort to try various things (one of which involved me running into a rubber mallet with my nose!) to get it to stand straight and tall. When none of our methods worked I had to go out in the rain (why couldn't it be snow?) to purchase a new stand from the lot where we bought our tree.

all the very best
this is how the front panels will look like:

br>Great work, very curious what the mini screens will look like.
It looks really tiny ! br> br>

br>Based on the layout and functions, It looks like he's just using two of the same Gabotronics scope sub modules I did on my DIY module.
The XMEGA Xprotolab scope by Gabotronics is a pretty cool little module.
Really good for checking what signals are doing but, a little tough for precision calibrations. Good monitoring tool.
br> br>
br>Hello all,
mmm is totally right, i'm using the XMEGA Xprotolab, and making a shell for them, like doepfer used to do with their oscilloscope...
although it is my plan to change the base firmware adding some new functions in it.
all of this will be announced in more detail further ahead!

Just out of curiosity, the source code for the MSO firmware for the XMEGA protolap wasn't released for the public:
This is an evaluation version of the source code. This source code does not
contain the MSO application.
Are you going to license it? I know he accidentally included it once, so maybe that's where you got it from.
There have been a lot of bug-fixes since then, so caveat emptor. br> br>

br>Doctor B
Over the past few weeks, from Analogue Haven, I put together and ordered a really nice Eurorack system (with advice from Stretta and Richard Devine).
It includes your Nunchuck Controller (ADDAC302), your Complex Random Generator and Expander - (ADDAC501 & ADDAC501B), and your .WAV Player (ADDAC101). You have supposedly shipped the WAV Player to Shawn for me and I am hoping that it will arrive soon.
Today I discovered your very cool Dual Oscilloscope (ADDAC205) and I would like to purchase one.
In this post from back in July, you say you have 3.
Do you have more now?
Also, when looking at your videos on your wonderful new site, I came across you new Voltage Controller Computer. I would like to order one
of these as well - with some expander modules too.
In my Physical Computing and Circuit-Bending class at Berklee, I teach the Arduino and am especially interested in Arduino-based modules such as this.
Are they available?
As you might know, Shawn doesn't list these modules on his Analogue Haven website yet.
Can I get them from you or should I order it through Analogue Haven and have him get it for me through you?
Can I become part of your beta-test program? (I have read that post as well.)
Dr. B. br> br>
br>Hello all,
thought of posting an updated front panel photo.
also updated the website:
http://addacsystem.com/product/addac200-series/addac205-dual-oscillosc ope-awg
all the very best
br> br>
br>I just got one of those ADDAC205, the little Dual Oscilloscope & AWG. Very cool and handy... I still need to expend more time with it, going through the menus, but... Is there a manual? I couldn't find any instructions in the website. I suppose it's almost self-explanatory, but, still, a page or two in PDF would be nice. I think I need to watch again that early demo of the Xprotolab...
Also, I see there are two connections for expansion... and that there is a ADDAC205B Dual Oscilloscope Digital Expansion. What exactly the expansion does or is it for? br> br>

It's on the gabotronics site. ADDAC/vendors of the 205 should have this manual on their sites or a link to. I would've never have known a manual existed without further research. The manual will make sense sitting in front of your 205!

Ha ha ha... Thanks, but it has been more than a year since I asked that question. In that time, I found the manual, read it and forgot about it. I might check it out again, to see what exactly is the point of those digital expansions. Before releasing the module, ADDAC mentioned that they were going to make some changes to the original firmware, but if remember correctly, there is no difference between the original XScope and these ones mounted by ADACC. So, yes, the xscopes manual is the manual. br> br>
I know, I was bumping and old thread! I just got the 205! I read this thread (manufacture & vendor sites) before purchasing and couldn't find the manual/full feature info. After purchase, I searched a little deeper and uncovered. Figured I post the manual here to help future prospect buyers
I don't think I need the digital expansion from giving the manual a read through. br> br>
Someone near me is selling is addac oscilloscope.
How is it? Do you recomend it?
Thanx! br> br>

Welcome to Quarters Coverage, a monthly NFL abstract of power rankings, awards and essential information. It's like the prospectus your investment firm sends out every three months, except that it doesn't leave you sitting at your office desk, staring at the wastepaper basket, wondering if all your toil and sacrifice will ever amount to anything.
Rank Observations
The following power rankings are based upon hours of tape study and statistical analysis, strength of schedule, Football Outsiders' DVOA rankings (which are based on every, single play of the season, not just the overtime field goals) and the opinions of both national experts and the voices in my head. I welcome all emails to the effect of, "The Vikings beat the 49ers and therefore should be ranked higher than the 49ers so you are either a 49ers fan or some fat idiot who knows nothing about football." I will write back assuring you that I am not a 49ers fan.
1. Texans (4-0): All but clinched a playoff spot on Sunday with a win and a combination of Titans/Jaguars football.
2. Falcons (4-0): Made major strides by going one week without a DUI. That explains why Arthur Blank was on the sideline of the Panthers game dressed like a chauffeur.
3. 49ers (3-1): Unveiled the Colin Kaepernick "Wild Ostrich" package against the Jets. Coming soon: the Wild Harbaugh "Gimmie a Damn Helmet, I Can Still Do It" package.
4. Ravens (3-1): Have all but scrapped the no-huddle concept because they realized it's a bad idea to give their offense more opportunities to run plays.
5. Packers (3-1, oh wait, 2-2): Team finally figured out how to win close games this week. The technique is called "not getting totally hosed."
6. Cardinals (4-0): Now 6-0 in overtime over the last six years. Arizona state legislature votes this week to overturn the laws of probability.
7. Patriots (2-2): Bottomed out on their tight-end addiction with the Kellen Winslow signing. Now getting clean again with Wes Welker methadone.
8. Giants (2-2): Fourth-quarter strategy of "waiting for the opponent to screw up" didn't work against the Cowboys and Eagles, but you cannot blame the Giants for trying.
9. Vikings (3-1): Great defense, power running, pesky quarterback play. Like the Jets, minus idiocy.
10. Bears (3-1): Blowing off Mike Tice on the sideline was actually the smartest thing Jay Cutler has done all year.
11. Eagles (3-1): Did you notice that when the Eagles ran the ball more often against the Giants, both their sack and turnover problems disappeared? Andy Reid didn't notice.
12. Bengals (3-1): On pace to go 0-4 against the Steelers and Ravens, 12-0 against everyone else, will miss the playoffs somehow.
13. Chargers (3-1): The Chargers are what the Giants would be if Tom Coughlin did not get enough Omega-3 fatty acids in his diet.
14. Broncos (2-2): An aging veteran whose career appeared over this time last year has revitalized the offense: Willis McGahee.
15. Redskins (2-2): Time for an SAT analogy. Redskins : RGIII :: Supremes : ______
16. Bills (2-2): If the Bills were a fantasy team, they would totally dominate your league.
17. Seahawks (1-3, oh wait, 2-2): Russell Mania and Refageddon are over, folks. Please return to your regularly scheduled 19-13 losses.
18. Lions (1-3): A solid team as long as it never runs, punts or kicks off.
19. Steelers (1-2): Cannot run the football, generate sacks or hold leads. The Terrible Towel is looking like a Tissue With Issues.
20. Dolphins (1-3): Back-to-back overtime losses show just how close the Dolphins are to the Cardinals and Jets. Let's shorten that to just "Cardinals" for the fan websites.
21. Colts (1-2): Be strong, coach.
22. Panthers (1-3): Anti-Cam Newton backlash was so powerful and swift that it caused a 15-foot storm surge at Kill Devil Hills.
23. Rams (2-2): Danny Amendola, Cortland Finnegan, Robert Quinn, Sam Bradford, James Laurinaitis, duct tape, bailing wire, fake field goals, moustache jokes, wishful thinking.
24. Saints (0-4): Joe Vitt may want to be the first person ever to petition Roger Goodell to increase his suspension.
25. Cowboys (2-2): For the team's sake, let's hope that Jerry Jones is still not watching Monday Night Football.
26. Buccaneers (1-3): The "try hard when the game is lost" strategy is down pat, Greg Schiano. Now start working on holding a lead.
27. Raiders (1-3): No wide receivers, no cornerbacks, no big-play ability on either side of the ball. The Al Davis memorial flame must be billowing black smoke right now.
28. Jets (2-2): If Tim Tebow makes his teammates better, imagine what these guys are really like.
29. Browns (0-4): If Greg Little drops any more passes, he will cause Brandon Weeden to get gray hairs prematurely … well, at about the age-appropriate time.
30. Titans (1-3): Matt Hasselbeck is too old to put up with this nonsense.
31. Jaguars (1-3): The Redskins answer was "Diana Ross." That's right: The Jaguars don't even get top billing in their own power ranking anymore.
32. Chiefs (1-3): Opponents are outscoring the Chiefs 41-6 in the first quarter. You can't accuse them of getting anyone's hopes up.
Quarterly Awards
Offensive Player: Matt Ryan, Falcons. Ryan leads the league in passer rating and is near the top of the league in almost every statistical category, including high-tech stats like Football Outsiders' DVOA and ESPN's TQR. Ryan has not had an ugly game yet this season, which is more than you can say for Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Tony Romo, Michael Vick or even Tom Brady, if you count the first 55 minutes of the Cardinals game.
Defensive Player: J.J. Watt. Watt has 7 ½ sacks, five passes defended and two fumble recoveries. Plus, his explanation of how he learned the Dolphins' snap counts by watching "Hard Knocks" may have saved the world from ever having to watch that program again.
Rookie: Robert Griffin III. Duh. Griffin hardly even counts as a rookie anymore. Let's reclassify him as a Macrookie: a mature, capable rookie. Or maybe a RILF (rookie I'd like for my fantasy team).
Comeback Player: Kevin Kolb, Cardinals. What is he coming back from? The same thing we all come back from: ourselves.
Biggest Surprise: The Vikings. Christian Ponder is a viable passer, Adrian Peterson is healthy, new offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave is creative about using Percy Harvin and the front four is still great despite some new faces. We had that third win penciled in for late November, not Sept. 30.
Biggest Disappointment: Sure, the Saints are 0-4, but they are in a unique situation, and they keep losing close games. The Chiefs were expected to contend for their division, but they have played only about six competitive quarters of football this season. Of course, five of them were against the Saints.
Five Bold Predictions for the Second Quarter of the Season
1. Matt Flynn will become the Seahawks' starter. And they will still score about 12 points per game.
2. The transition from "how the Patriots dynasty collapsed" stories to "the Patriots cannot be stopped" stories will occur so seamlessly that someone will actually do it in mid-sentence. ("The secondary is weak, the passing game is bogged down with short passes and the coaching staff has grown so arrogant that no opponent can possibly match up with these superior offensive weapons or outwit this championship-proven brain trust, and of course Brady rules and we are all Gronked. Wait, what just happened?")
3. The Cowboys offensive line will give up a sack during a press conference. But it won't be a Jerry Jones press conference, so it's okay.
4. During the Bears-Panthers game on Oct. 28, so many cameras will be pointed at Jay Cutler and Cam Newton on the sidelines that there will not be enough footage to properly televise the game, let alone handle replays. "After further review, he don't care."
5. LeSean McCoy will get 40 carries. No, not in a game, in the next quarter of the season.
Five Stories to Bury in the First Quarter Time Capsule
1. Is Peyton Manning back? No? How about now? No? Now? Oh, so he is completely finished and embarrassing then? No? How about now?
2. The Tebow Wildcat. Unfortunately, it will be buried in favor of The Tebow Quarterback. In fact, all Jets stories deserve Robert Ludlum titles. The Sanchez Deterioration. The Santonio Dismemberment. The Sportswriter Defenestration. The Storyline Exhaustion.
3. Kneelgate. The sportsmanship gods have ruled from Olympus: Going whole-hog to stop an end-of-game kneel is the second-least mature thing a person can do, just above throwing down the controller, unplugging the game console, stomping around the room crying that you will never, ever play that stupid game again because the computer cheats, calming down, plugging in, and starting a new game.
4. Is this the greatest crop of rookie quarterbacks in football history, or are several teams so mismanaged that they resorted to throwing unprepared middle-tier prospects on the field and hoping that they develop through neglect, Artful Dodger style? Oh yeah, the second thing.
5. Thinking about replacement officials. Talking about replacement officials. Joking about replacement officials. Trolling for attention on Twitter by popping up at 1:07 on Sunday to announce that the replacement officials are doing a great job this week and anyone who says otherwise is just manufacturing controversy. Writing condescending little "now fans can go back to complaining about the real refs" articles, which is like saying "sure, your last girlfriend ran up your credit cards buying designer scarves and cheated on you with an entire construction site, but you will complain about this one, too, when she accidently unplugs your MP3 player." Seeing your sister-in-law post replacement official jokes on Facebook and longing for the days of Farmville, and on and on and on …

In late 2002 and early 2003, reports of a new disease called severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) emerged from parts of Asia. Since then, the illness has been found in other parts of the world, including Europe and North and South America. During the initial 2003 outbreak, only 8 people in the United States were diagnosed with SARS. All of them had traveled to parts of the world where there were people infected with SARS. In all of those areas, SARS was uncommon in children.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome is caused by a specific virus from a family of organisms called coronaviruses. They received their name because when examined under the microscope, they look something like a halo or crown. Other coronaviruses are a common cause of mild to moderate upper respiratory tract infections in children and adults. The incubation period is 2 to 7 days.
In many places, SARS has been a very contagious disease. In most cases, it starts with a high fever. People with the infection may then develop other symptoms, including
A dry cough tends to occur after several days. Pneumonia then develops in most people.
Before traveling to Asia and other areas where cases of SARS have been most prevalent, seek the advice of your pediatrician and keep up-to-date on travel advisories from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
If your child develops these symptoms, particularly breathing difficulties that might indicate the development of SARS or other pneumonia-like infections, contact your pediatrician. Also contact your pediatrician if your child develops any respiratory symptoms after traveling to an area with a known SARS outbreak or being in contact with anyone known or suspected of having SARS.
Because the symptoms of SARS are similar to those of other respiratory infections, your pediatrician will conduct a physical examination and perform tests that may rule out other conditions. Diagnostic tests specifically for coronaviruses are generally unavailable.
The treatment of SARS is similar to that given to patients with viral pneumonia and is generally supportive. It may include giving oxygen during hospitalization (in some cases, a ventilator or breathing device will be used). A number of antiviral medications are being tested for use in SARS, but no specific medication has been proven to be effective.
Most people recover from SARS. However, in the initial outbreaks of 2002 and 2003, there were 774 deaths among the more than 8,000 cases that were identified.
At this time, the risk of SARS in children and adults in the United States is thought to be relatively low. Public health officials continue to monitor the worldwide patterns of the disease.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome is spread during close contact with a person who has the infection, usually during sneezing or coughing. A child can also pick up the virus if she touches a toy or other object or surface that has been contaminated with the virus.
To reduce the risk of SARS, make sure your child washes her hands frequently with soap and hot water. No vaccination is available to prevent SARS.

Spooky for the neighbs.
But back to pictures.
I've mentioned before that I am not really "in" to dragging my kids to the portrait studio. That's for my sanity/my children's lives, and plus, I think the casual, every day snaps mean so much more later on.
But that's just me.
So I focus on the mundane. The day to day. Homework and ginormous after-school snack cheese and cracker sandwiches.
Stuff like that.
And ya know, none of these are just fabulous shots, hello. I'm not gonna enter them in a contest.
Or blow them up and have them framed and hung in the house.
Some of them kind of suck. And some of them suck, not kinda.
(hello 6400 ISO, no light anywhere besides inside the flot snub)
And, ya know, I tried to take these cute, wintery shots of the 8 year old,
but I focused on a snowflake instead of his head. But, I, like, did that on purpose. . . it was creative. . 'n stuff. . .(I'd also like to flick him in the back of the head for all the crusty facial expressions he gave the camera that day.)
But I freaking love each and every one of them. And frankly?
(I like to call this one: "You wouldn't do that if you knew how long it's been since I've cleaned that.")
I could have done better this month. Totally disappointed with myself.
(I like to call this one: "We like to play a little game called, 'Strip Monopoly'".)
How come I didn't take a snap of that night, when I thought it would be totally fun to play this mystery video game together as a family, and it scared all my kids crapless, and so they ended up having a "sleepover" in my bed?
(I like to call this one: "Is that a sled on the right, or a potty training chair? And must they be mutually exclusive?")
That would have been a good shot.
That was such an uncomfortable night's sleep.
I'm going to make an even better effort this month, fo sho. All the small things. No child left behind! And so forth.
Also, this awesome cape was made by my sister in law, and you can flip it to reveal "Bat Girl" on the other side.
I'm wondering if it would be weird to get one in my size.

Abuse isn't just about bruises. Not all forms of abuse leave bruises where we can see them,What Happens When You Call The Police For Domestic Violence in South Africa . Although physical abuse is terrifying and needs to be addressed immediately there are other forms of abuse that can cause significant damage. One type of abuse that is very difficult for outsiders to detect is financial abuse. Marriage should be a partnership but when one spouse completely dominates the finances to the point that the other spouse has no control and no options financial abuse may be occurring.
What Are Signs of Potential Financial Abuse?
Every married couple handles their finances differently. In some cases one spouse handles the majority of the finances. They manage the accounts, pay the bills and deal with creditors. That does not by itself equal financial abuse.
Financial abuse occurs when one spouse is treated like an irresponsible child and Domestic Violence Essay Pdf . They are cut off from funds and their knowledge about the couple's finances is severely limited. Some signs of financial abuse include:
•Strict Allowances. This isn't an amount that the spouses have agreed to limit themselves to but is instead a set amount that is grudgingly handed out from one spouse to the other and is all that will be given.
Documents, documents, documents. Written evidence is incredibly strong and can range from credit card bills showing that there is a credit card but that you aren't named on it to emails from your spouse that show the financial abuse.
Other witnesses can be incredibly powerful on your behalf. Financial abuse is hard for people outside the relationship to detect. So when someone credible comes in and tells the judge that it is happening and they can see it the judge will listen and Domestic Violence Emotional Abuse .
What Happens When You Call The Police For Domestic Violence in South Africa ?
Maya had the dream life. She had a career she loved. She married when she was mature enough to pick a partner for the right reasons. She had a partner, a son, a daughter and a lovely puppy. Add the picket fence and you could say she had it all. On the surface of course...
Beneath the surface she was struggling with the demise of a marriage due to the malicious interactions of a verbally and emotionally abusive mother in law who was going unstopped in the family. This women had such control over the men in her family, that she could say and do as she pleased, and no one would stop her from viscious behavior. Maya became the victim of emotional and verbal abuse, first from her mother in law, then her extended family members, and then ultimately from her husband. She was a highly educated women, so how could anything so serious be happening in her life?
The walls came crashing down upon Maya, when her mother in law crossed the line to not only verbally and emotionally abuse her, she repeatedly hurt her infant son too. The saddest thing about this situation, is that her mother in law "did not intentionally" verbally and emotionally abuse anyone. Even though she was the former manager of a pre-school, she did not consider that flying into a mad rage directed at Maya in front of her 2 month old son, would ultimately harm the baby.
After experiencing from Maya how bad abuse can get from an intimate family member, I have committed my life's work to spiritually healing abuse survivors, so you become the mothers, lovers, and the professionals you deserve to be. I will be publishing a series of articles called, "You're the First", that will be about how women and men have turned around difficult situations, and become highly successful in their own right. Believe in yourself, you can get anything you dream of...
Violence and Violent Crime - The Gender Consideration
It can be difficult to describe what abuse is and this is because the word 'Abuse' can mean different things to different people. For one person it might relate to emotional pain, for another it might involve physical pain. With there being different degrees of pain and hurt within these two forms of violence.
As a general guideline: this could be behaviour that occurs here and there, without it happening often enough to cause too many problems. Or it could be experienced to such an extreme that one's life becomes unbearable.
In this analysis I am going to be looking at what I currently believe causes abusive behaviour and the type of individual that commits abusive behaviour on a regular basis.
The Dictionary.com Definition
Here, it is described as the following:
• To use wrongly or improperly; misuse: to abuse one's authority.
• To treat in a harmful, injurious, or offensive way: to abuse a horse.
• To abuse one's eyesight; to speak insultingly, harshly, and unjustly to or about; revile; malign.
• To commit sexual assault upon: Obsolete - to deceive or mislead.
My Definition
What comes to mind when I think of abusive, is compromise. When one is abused they are not being respected or treated in a humane way, they are being treated as objects. The abused person's feelings do not register to the abuser and if they are recognised, it is not enough to end the behaviour.
Empathy And Compassion
If one can't feel their own feelings, it is then a lot easier to do destructive things to another. The question is: why wouldn't the abuser have the ability to empathise or to be compassionate with another person?
It is said that the ability to empathise and to be compassionate is developed through caregivers that display the same behaviours to their children. This is also known as healthy mirroring and validation. What also happens through this process is that the child feels noticed and acknowledged, which are of paramount importance for the development of a healthy sense of self.
It could be said that because of their past, the person that displays abusive behaviour is abusing themselves just as much, if not more than they are abusing others. This is because the original abuser has been internalised. And even if the original abuser is not longer alive or around; they still have the potential to exist in the mind of the abuser or abused.
Here the voice exists like a parasite in the mind, merging with the mind and this makes it hard to notice and eliminate.
This shows that it is typically a two way relationship. With people who have been abused being more likely to be attracted to an abuser. If one has been abused in their younger years and it has not been looked at processed, the mind will then continue to associate this as what familiar and safe.
It will also mean that the abused will put up with this behaviour later in life. If this is what they have experienced as a child, one will then think that it is normal and all they deserve.
If one was abused by their own caregivers, it is only normal for them to assume that this is how people are that that the world is therefore unsafe and dangerous. And also that people can't be trusted.
To experience abuse can be extremely traumatising; with the consequences of abuse having the potential to last a life time. Time is said to be one of the greatest healers. Being around supportive people that one can feel safe around and who can listen without judgement is equally important.
This could be in the form of friends, family or a therapist. Here they will listen and acknowledge what is being said without judgement or blame. This is a process that cannot be rushed, and will happen in its own time and when one is ready to face what has happened. There is not a right or wrong time, only the time when one feels ready to undertake such an important step.

VOL. I NEW YORK, OCTOBER 15, 1918 No. 8 The Writing A REPORT is the formal medium where-by the firm conveys to the client the result of the engagement. It is the expression of the firm's opinion in the premises. It is the evidence whereby the firm is judged. The writing of a report is a function which is delegated to qualified members of the staff. The greater their ability to accept the responsibility and function under their respective commissions the more valuable they become as members of the organization. To write a good report should be the aim and ambition of every member of the staff. It is an accomplishment of which any one may well be proud. It stamps a man with the mark of ability. An enterprising junior recently, while awaiting assignment in the absence of the manager, took up the finished working papers on an engagement and tried his hand at writing the report. The showing was a most creditable one. Initiative of this kind should be encouraged. Many a man might be able to write a good report were he to have an opportunity to try. The ancient tribal method of teaching through "trial and error" still has its value. Without the "trial" the "error" will not be disclosed. Once disclosed, practice combined with constructive criticism may soon overcome the faults. A report consists, roughly speaking, of three parts: the presentation, the statements, and the comments. The presentation of a Report serves formally to transmit the report and serves as an index to the contents. It is more or less stereotyped in form and may be easily memorized, if need be. The statements vary in form but individually follow general lines, to which, in turn, variation applies when circumstances dictate. To become familiar with the forms is not a difficult matter. The comments constitute the chief stumbling block of most accountants. They serve to present matters of general information; to bring sharply to the attention a particular fact which might be passed over in reading the statements; to elucidate certain facts or figures in the statements; to offer an opportunity for qualification; and, in appropriate instances, to provide for criticism, suggestion, or recommendation. No report should be started without first considering deliberately and thoroughly its primary purpose. One client may want simply an independent and unbiased statement of his financial condition for his own satisfaction. Another client may want the report for purposes of litigation; another, for the sale of a business. It may be used in making representations to the Treasury Department in matters relating to taxes. Every report should be so complete as to stand the strain of any of these tests. No detail of the field work should ever be undertaken without having in mind the effect upon the report. The man who does the work should put himself in the place of the man who is to write the report. HASKINS & SELLS CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS NEW YORK CHICAGO DETROIT ST.

To the Editor:
Some of Estherville's rules don't make sense, anymore than their lack of building codes do.
Some children whose parents own property in E'ville were denied the right to attend Halloween parties which E'ville sponsored. Just because open enrollment allowed them to attend Graettinger school - which agrees with them and they are doing well in.
I really do not agree with that policy, If there is a policy. It's a big Black Mark on Estherville. It seems very un-Christian and they attend the Christian Church here.
Sincerely upset
Nona Lair-Klein
P.S. Who is in charge here? I won't vote for them!
