When: 9-22 July 2018
Cost: $3500 (approx)
The cost includes airfares, transport, breakfast, lunch, dinner, lift passes, coaching and accommodation. This does not include spending money or any extra activities that the student may choose to do.

We get the students unpacked and organised for the night skiing session from 5pm – 8pm (if the weather prevails). Only those students of intermediate level and up will be able to participate in this as it is under teacher supervision – no lessons.

Wake up time in the morning is 6.30am, and we are on the mountain by 8.15am.
Students are put into groups according to their skill level and then they have instruction for a couple of hours in the morning. We all meet up for lunch, then assemble for afternoon instruction. We get back to the Lodge late afternoon, enjoy a hot milo, then 'chill out' with a movie and games. We are up early the next morning, and onto the mountain again for instruction by 8.15 am. We have lunch at the Lodge, clean-up, leaving at about 2pm. We stop in Otorohonga at McDonalds for an early dinner, and are back at school by 7pm on the Sunday evening.
We have a caterer who has been cooking for us for a number of years, and who also does our Middle School camps. The food is healthy, nutritious and there is lots of it!! The students have filled rolls for lunch - their choice of fillings, and plenty of options including yoghurt, muesli bars, slices, fruit and drinks. They certainly don't go hungry!! Students with allergies are accommodated.
The weekend includes food, transport, accommodation which is in 2 big bunk rooms (girls and boys separated; the rooms are heated and very comfortable), transport to and from the mountain, ski hire, lift passes, and instruction by qualified ski / snowboard instructors. The total cost for the weekend is $550, with a reduction if the students have their own lift passes. The money does not have to be paid until after the weekend.

Not every tax measure lost, Arapahoe Co. supported sales tax for trails, open space
Arapahoe County voters on Tuesday bucked the anti-tax trend that was popular during Tuesday's off-year election, overwhelmingly supporting a sales-and-use tax that brings $18 million to the county every year for trails, open space and parks.
"People have seen the value of what we do," said Ellen Belef, chair of the Yes on 1A campaign.
Elsewhere around Colorado, almost every ballot issue to raise taxes was defeated, including the statewide Proposition 103 that asked voters to approve raising the state income tax and sales tax to support K-12 education.
In Aurora, a ballot proposal to fund community recreation centers also failed, but not the reinstatement of the trails, parks and open space tax that was created in 2003 and is relatively small — 25 cents on a $100 purchase. The tax was due to sunset after 10 years. Roughly 62 percent of voters approved its reinstatement.
Supporters believe that its approval was probably because it was a reinstatement, not a new tax. And that its benefits are so obvious — acquisition of land and improvements along the South Platte Trail, purchase of open space and money for cities in the county. Fifty percent of the revenue is returned to cities and towns based upon population to be used to enhance their parks, trails and open space.
The city of Aurora, for example, has received almost $40 million from the tax over the past nine years.
"The program has been well run, visible, people aware of it and people are aware of the investments," said Tim Wohlgenant, Colorado State Director of the Trust for Public Land. "People do really value in those investments in parks and trails and quality of life. People recognize that. These days, a lot of people are staying home and using their parks and trails more. They really appreciate that experience in nature."

text: Cougar The Musical by Donna Moore, unleashes three divine but disillusioned women who develop a taste for hot, young men. They let their inner cougar roar and purr, finding self-love and empowerment in the process. The sexy, ferocious cast of three fabulous-over-forty women and one multi-talented boy toy sing and dance their way through a satiating range of original songs, from grinding blues, to doo-wop, to pop to "Julio"; a romantic ballad, sung to a vibrator. Hilarious, soulful and heartwarming, Cougar the Musical is a madcap ride from Cougar Bar to nail salon to boudoir and back as the women learn to say "yes" to getting older, "yes" to trust and friendship and "yes" to proving that love is ageless.

Incoming 1Ls / Re: Paramedic/JD idea« on: January 08, 2010, 12:26:28 PM »
whats wrong with actually doing the work first hand before attempting to claim to understand what it is in court?
I get it. I have been an LPN for 3 years, now I'm pre-law. I want to do medical malpractice in the future. Being an LPN gives me an insight on what I might want to do; I doubt it will qualify me though. I personally believe that I would have to be a competetive graduate and have some proven success as an attorney in order to gain entrance into my desired field. I'm not sure how it works though, I'm just a pre-law student. I feel you though
Med mal is not a competitive field. But being an LPN will help you when you have to review hundreds of pages of medical files and in case evaluation (whether standard of care was met, causation, etc.).

Washington – The White House is opposing congressional Republicans' subpoena of a top political adviser to President Barack Obama to testify this week, saying the demand threatens the constitutional separation of powers.
White House counsel Neil Eggleston sent a letter Monday to House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, asking him to lift to the subpoena to David Simas, director of the White House Office of Political Strategy and Outreach. But Issa's spokeswoman says Simas was still expected to appear at Wednesday's hearing, which will examine whether the White House political office is an abuse of taxpayer funds.
Administrations of both parties have maintained in-house political shops at the White House. A 2011 report by the independent Office of Special Counsel criticized a longstanding practice by both parties of using the political office for systematic, campaign-related activity.
Obama closed the White House Office of Political Affairs in 2011, but reinstated a political office under the new name earlier this midterm election year, slimmed down from the previous 15 staffers to six, with Simas in charge. Issa, R-Calif., has been demanding that the White House turn over all documents relating to the reopening of the office.
"Chairman Issa has allowed that if the White House provided the requested information to the committee, he would reconsider, but at present Mr. Simas is still expected to appear at Wednesday's hearing," Issa spokeswoman Becca Glover Watkins said.
Eggleston said his staff was planning to brief Issa on Tuesday on the political office's compliance with the law. Eggleston objected to the subpoena coming three business days before the hearing and pointed out that administrations of both parties have long argued that a congressional demand for presidential advisers to testify "raises significant separation of powers concerns."
"The committee's effort to compel Mr. Simas' testimony threatens longstanding interests of the executive branch in preserving the president's independence and autonomy and his ability to obtain candid advice and counsel to aid him in the discharge of his constitutional duties," Eggleston wrote. "Your decision to pursue this course of action is precipitate and surprising in light of our clear willingness to work with you to meet your informational needs and the fact that you have not pointed to any evidence that OPSO has violated the Hatch Act."

First of all, let me thank all of the people that have participated in our Halloween Social Media Challenge! We have been waved away by the huge number of positive and original comments you left in our blog, our FaceBook page, Twitter and YouTube. The total number of the posts we received in one week is itself astounding – 1118, but what really makes all of the SiteGrounders feel that their work is worthwhile, is the fact that so many people took this initiative as a chance to share some great personal experience with our company. So, thank you once again for being not just customers, but for being part of the sharing and positive community we try to build within and around our company. And here are the winners...
The Google AdWords credits
These were the first treats SiteGround gave away. Between October 28th and November 2nd 100 lucky comment authors received information how to redeem their AdWords credits on the email related with their hosting account.
The originality awards – 3 years free hosting for the best post in each media
Choosing the best post in each media was not an easy task at all! You definitely got inspired and we had the chance to enjoy hundreds of witty comments, poems, haikus and rhymes combining SiteGround and Halloween. We are seriously thinking about publishing a SiteGround customer anthology! 🙂
Just to mention a small part of the great works in rhymes:
"Witches swoop down on their broomsticks,
but SiteGround provides you with lots of great tips
Ghost and Gools may make you scream…
but SiteGround makes me gleam..."
"SiteGround, SiteGround,
Does more than Host-lame can.
Spins your page, any size;
Catches hackers just like flies..."
"Witches fly across the sky; the owls cry "Who Who?" Black cats yowl and ghosts do howl "SiteGround can host you too!" #SiteGround #Halloween"
"If #Halloween is for fun and frights, #Siteground is great for hosting Websites!!"
Haiku Comment: "My WordPress was hacked Siteground team to the rescue No Loss, Biz Good, Thanks"
"You are the best
To heck with the rest
When it comes to Joomla
You be da boomah…"
Even Shakespeare was quoted:)
But... the originality award inspired by your great writing skills goes to a Halloween short story about old websites, haunting their creator for not being hosted by SiteGround, posted in Facebook.
The most original Facebook comment:
"It was a cold and dark, dark night. I'll found myself walking on a graveyard and there they were!All my old website's and domains. I ran home scared as hell, but they followed me and haunted me all night long. Why, I asked them, why are you following me and scaring the hell out of me! One of the old domains came out of the dark and started crying. All those years, we have been there for you, all your projects we stood by your side. We had the worst webhosts, but we remained true! And now we find out that your newest "PRECIOUS" is hosted by "SITEGROUND" !!!! Do you have any idea how much that hurts us! Your new precious gets all the good care, the service, the speed and all the space it needs. Compared to what we had, Siteground is spectacular! So I promised them that when the time is there, I'll bring them back to life and I will give them their own little place on the servers of Siteground. Like magic was happening, they all started to glow and disappeared in to the cold and dark, dark night."
The most original Tweet
The limitation of the Tweet length did not restrain at all your #Halloween #SiteGround creativity. And the winner in this media is the person that managed to compare the uptime and speed received by SiteGround with Halloween candy packages in a great way:
If I Ping my #SiteGround hosted website from here,less than a second after I get my candy's packets for #Halloween! No trick! It just works!
The best YouTube comment
The award in YouTube goes to the person that have taken the "dream" idea from the SiteGround official video and extended it in his/her comment:
"Completing your dream made our dreams come true! thanks for the amazing hosting services! undeniable webhosting experts! professional support the exact time we need it!"
The video gathered more than 160 comments. However, the video itself was not so commented as SiteGround service itself. I specially want to thank to the author of this post: "...They have been hosting our accounts for over 10 years...."! The author really has an account with us since our first year in business and we are grateful for this ongoing trust, only that we started in 2004 as stated in the first video screen:), so it is a little less than 10 years!
Best Blog comment
The media that gathered the most personal and touching comments was the SiteGround Blog. And it is only natural, as this is the place where real people working in SiteGround can be heard and seen. The most popular post seems to be the one about our new office, and the fact that our great sales and support teams were on the pictures from the new place and that we "do, in fact, have a beautiful woman waiting" to take customers calls (as one of you commented) surely helped for this:) The security posts by Tenko also got a good amount of attention, which we believe is great too, as they show our efforts in a field we particularly pride ourselves in. We are happy that our people, ideas, values and practices have reached so many customers and triggered so much positive feedback.
Unfortunately the Blog comment winner can only be one and we have chosen a person, who has a very original idea about his services pricing based on his customers' choice of web host:
"I Always recommend my clients go with siteground (in fact I have decided to start charging more if they don't) because of the great service, easy to use features, but especially because of the security. (well, okay, the price you charge is really nice too).
Of all the sites I have managed I have never once had a siteground account hacked. I have had several accounts hacked that were hosted elsewhere and it consumes a lot of my time when that happens.
I have convinced some of my clients to move to siteground due to hacks at their old webhosts.
Thank you guys for the great work.
Mike Pritchard"
And now the big award – the iPad2
On Friday, November 5th, all comments that participated in our Halloween Social Media challenge in the four media were collected in a list and received a number from 1 to 1118. Then, with the help of random.org, the number 646 was chosen and the comment corresponding to this number in our list was the following tweet:
So the winner of the iPad is
Jennifer Crowder
Congratulations to the winners! Thank you all for participation and stay tuned for our upcoming great social media events!
Lilyana Yakimova
Marketing Manager
P.S. I strongly encourage the FaceBook, Twitter and YouTube winners to check their social media accounts for private messages and to contact us back to receive their originality awards.

Although the "Golden Age" of steamboating began in 1840, according to "Steamboatin' on the Cumberland" by Byrd Douglas, passengers and goods continued to be transported on the rivers well after 1900. Steamboating was not without its dangers, though, as witnessed by the many fires, which destroyed the steamers and sometimes resulted in loss of lives.
The following article from the Crittenden Press describes the burning of the John L. Lowery in 1911.
Paducah, Ky., June 15, 1911 - The steamer John L. Lowery, with 50 passengers aboard, burned to the water's edge off Hamlettsburg, Illinois at 1:30 o'clock this morning. There was no loss of life. The place where the accident occurred is opposite Smithland, Ky., and rescue parties put out from the Kentucky side to aid in the work of saving lives.
How the flames started has not been learned, but a faulty boiler is believed to have been responsible. The steamer started burning near the Illinois bank and the glare lighted up the water front on both sides of the river. The whistles of distress disturbed the stillness of the night and were heard for many miles.
The wildest of scenes were enacted on board the vessel when the flames were first discovered. Women shrieked and became hysterical, while many men frantic with fear, fought their way to the rails. All landed safe, however."
The Henderson Gleaner of 12 January 1913 says, "The new John L. Lowery, Capt. John L. Lowery's fine new boat, made its maiden trip from Evansville to Paducah last night, leaving Evansville at 8 o'clock and passing here at 9 o'clock. On account of the rain, very few Henderson people saw the boat pass. It will ply between Paducah and Evansville."

Experts who track Idaho farming inputs are optimistic that agricultural expenses will hold relatively flat in 2014, largely due to reduced demand caused by softer commodity prices.
"I think pretty much we're going to be flat to down slightly for input costs this year," University of Idaho Extension economist Paul Patterson said.
Patterson's prediction follows a 2013 growing season in which input costs were also flat, but amid a decade of steeper than usual input cost gains.
An exception may be power costs. In 2013, he estimates Idaho Power's cost to pressurize an acre-inch of canal water from a center pivot was $1.90, up 22 percent.
"When I did my budget this last year, I was pretty close on everything, but that power is what kicked my butt," said Idaho Falls surface water irrigator Matt Gellings. "I figured $25-$30 per acre. It ended up being close to $55-$60 per acre."
Patterson expects the magnitude of 2014 power increases will depend on the power cost adjustment, new environmental regulations affecting Idaho Power's coal-fire generation and 2014 temperatures.
Seed prices have made 15 percent average annual gains for a decade, driven by increased demand as strong commodity prices prompted growers to step up planting, Patterson said. In 2014, he expects lower corn and dry bean seed prices, flat grain, alfalfa and sugar beet seed prices and higher potato seed costs.
"I would look to see our wheat stay the same or go down slightly, especially where wheat prices have been," said Wayne Palmer, an owner of Nelson's Seed Co. in American Falls.
Palmer predicts alfalfa seed prices could rise 20 cents per pound by spring. He said Roundup Ready alfalfa seed supplies are especially tight.
St. Anthony grower Dirk Parkinson predicts potato seed prices will average $12 per hundredweight, up 20 percent from last year. Seed potato production held steady in Idaho in 2013, but was down elsewhere in the country. He expects a shortage of Russet Norkotah seed.
Farm diesel prices have held the same as in 2012, averaging $3.50 per gallon. Patterson expects greater domestic fuel production and reduced global demand will continue the flat trend in 2014. AAA Idaho spokesman Dave Carlson said the U.S. has become a net refined petroleum exporter, and China's slowing economy has reduced global consumption.
Patterson predicts machinery and chemical prices will rise only slightly, with farmers investing less in their crops due to softer commodity prices.
Valley Agronomics crop adviser Brian Miller believes chemical prices will rise slightly so companies can recoup research costs of new products, but he acknowledges they may "take a little less profit margin to move that product."
Patterson projects a slight decrease in fertilizer prices, noting high prices led to new mines opening. Miller said reduced planted acreage due to softer commodity prices should also keep fertilizer costs in check.
Patterson expects availability challenges will contribute to a 1-3 percent increase in labor, and interest rates should remain low through 2014.
Doug Robison, with Northwest Farm Credit Services, said the supply of land remains "ultra tight," and he expects slight increases in land values in 2014, but nowhere near the rapid growth of recent years.

Hauling to the Show NSRA Style |
It was just a few years ago that NSRA finally gave up on the pre-'48 format and opened their events to later-model cars and trucks. The results have been good, with a lot of great vehicles from the '50s to the late '70s rolling into their events. Of course this made for a whole new look to the NSRA events, but what really captured our eye was the amazing number of trucks that now attend NSRA events. Maybe that's because a lot of people who own a street rod also own a classic truck, but we like to think it is because trucks and hot rods just go together perfectly.
Speaking of perfect, this year the weather was ideal and over 2,000 cars and trucks poured into the Chilhowee Fairgrounds for the weekend. There were plenty of pre-'48 trucks on hand, but no doubt the largest groups of trucks were the F-1 and F-100 followed by the '48-55 Chevy and the C10 crowd from '67-72. But in and among these more popular haulers we found a lot of different trucks too, Internationals, Studebakers, early Dodges, and even one or two Hudsons. As for trucking trends, it was all on hand, from ratty to refined there was a truck for every budget.
The vendor area is always a popular place to spend time and virtually everything you need to modify a truck could be purchased from one of the many vendors. Out in the swap meet there was an abundance of old truck "stuff." While this is not a real big swap meet it is a cool deal because all of the spots are under cover, so rain or shine you buy, sell, or trade at the swap meet.
We always enjoy going to Knoxville, there is a lot to see and do in the area and we never seem to tire of getting together with a couple thousand like-minded friends for a weekend. If you've never been to the NSRA Nats South mark it down on your calendar for next year. As always, it will be the first weekend in May and you can bet we'll be there too. CT

Appeal brought on 28 February 2019 by Mylan Laboratories Ltd, Mylan, Inc. against the judgment of the General Court (Ninth Chamber) delivered on 12 December 2018 in Case T-682/14: Mylan Laboratories and Mylan v Commission
(Case C-197/19 P)
Language of the case: English
Appellants: Mylan Laboratories Ltd, Mylan, Inc. (represented by: C. Firth, S. Kon, C. Humpe, Solicitors, V. Adamis, advocate)
Other party: European Commission
Form of order sought
The appellants claim that the Court should:
set aside the judgment of the General Court in Case T-682/14 Mylan Laboratories Ltd and Mylan Inc. v European Commission insofar as it dismisses their application to annul the Decision of the Commission of 9 July 20141 in Case AT.39612 – Perindopril (Servier) insofar as it concerns the applicants; or
annul or substantially reduce the fine; and/or
refer the case back to the General Court for determination in accordance with the judgment of the Court of Justice; and
order the Commission to pay the appellants' legal and other costs and expenses in relation to this matter and any other measures that the Court of Justice considers appropriate.
Pleas in law and main arguments
In support of the action, the appellants rely on five grounds of appeal supported by the following pleas.
First Ground of Appeal: The General Court erred in law in finding that Matrix and Les Laboratoires Servier were potential competitors at the time of the settlement.
First plea: The General Court was wrong to conclude that the Commission was entitled to consider that Matrix and Niche could be classified as potential competitors on the basis of the Niche/Matrix Agreement.
Second plea: The General Court misapplied the legal test for potential competition in reaching the conclusion that Matrix and Servier were potential competitors at the time of entering into the Settlement.
Second Ground of Appeal: The General Court erred in law in finding that the settlement had the object of restricting competition.
First plea: The General Court has erred in finding that a patent settlement can have the object of restricting competition even though the terms of that settlement are within the scope of the patent.
Second plea: The General Court has erred in deriving the existence of a restriction of competition by object from the alleged inducement represented by the payment made by Servier to Matrix.
Third plea: The General Court erred in the manner in which it inferred the existence of an inducement from the payment received by Matrix.
Third Ground of Appeal: The General Court erred in declining to rule on the Commission's classification of the settlement as a restriction of competition by effect.
Fourth Ground of Appeal: The General Court erred in law in finding that Mylan Inc. exercised decisive influence over the conduct of Matrix during the relevant period.
Fifth Ground of Appeal: The General Court has infringed Article 23 of Regulation 1/20032 and the principles of nullum crimen nula poena sine lege, and legal certainty in finding that a fine could be imposed on the appellants.

The Bedford Flag is a famous flag carried by the Bedford Militia during several wars. Generations of the Page family served as flag bearer, and carried this flag, which gave them the right of the title "Cornet". I've been to many colonial battle re-enactments, and in 2000 I saw the 225th anniversary re-enactments of the events of 19 April 1775. At the battle at the "Bloody Angle" about 200 Bedford and Lincoln men responded to the Lexington Alarm and fired on the British as they retreated back towards Boston. The soldiers were carrying this flag. It is the oldest existing flag in the United States.
|The Nathaniel Page Homestead
before rennovations
I recently opened my member's magazine from WGBH Boston, and saw that their production of "This Old House" was going to renovate the Nathaniel Page house in Bedford, Massachusetts. I knew exactly where to look in my family tree for information about the family. I'm not a Page descendent, but since I have some Middlesex County ancestors , I looked and saw that we are connected through several marriages. I had four generations of Nathaniel Pages in my notes, including the two who were flag bearers and the one who built the Page house in Bedford. Several Cornet Pages had wives who were both 1st and 2nd cousins many generations removed from me, related through the Larkin, Blanchard, Wheeler, Whipple, and Crosby lines. I have a Page lineage from Hampton, New Hampshire which is unrelated to the Bedford Pages.

Whether you're renovating a home or you want to be prepared to tackle simple projects, handheld power tools can make any job easy to finish. From grinders and circular saws to drills and nail guns, you'll find the cordless power tools and accessories you need at Kmart.
Saws are essential for many DIY tasks. For major remodeling or demolition projects, reciprocating saws cut away various materials, such as pipes and drywall. Jig saws help to cut straight lines, curves and scrolls for intricate cutting projects. However, if you're attacking various woodworking projects, consider circular saws. These cordless power tools can slice through thick boards and lumber with ease. Just make sure to protect your eyes with safety goggles, and you'll be ready to make any cut.
Oscillating multi-tools are important to have on hand. You can use them to slice through metal, cement and other materials during home improvement projects. They're ideal if you need to cut drywall openings or eliminate grout. When working on large or small-scale projects, you need other vital cordless power tools to get the job done. Keep your tool box stocked with cordless drills, hammers and screwdrivers to tackle any task in the workshop or at the jobsite.
Whether you're moving into your first home or looking for tools for the worksite, cordless options always come in handy. Many models come with rechargeable batteries, so you don't have to worry about a long cord getting in the way of your task. Take control of craft projects and home repairs with Kmart's wide selection of cordless power tools.

2012 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead review
* Updated Phantom cabriolet driven * On sale now * Priced from 352,720...
The Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe has been given significant upgrades for the first time since its launch in 2007.
The front bumper has been restyled, there are new adaptive LED headlights and the front grille frame is now in one piece for a tidier look.
Meanwhile, the biggest mechanical change is to the automatic transmission; it now has eight speeds instead of six, which helps improve fuel consumption by 10% and cut CO2 emissions from 385g/km to 347g/km.
Performance is unchanged, so the Series II Drophead powers from 0-62mph in 5.8 seconds. However, buyers who want more can now order a dynamic pack to extract more performance.
For the interior, the biggest change is a much-needed update of the BMW iDrive-derived infotainment system. The bigger screen now provides 3D maps, guided tours and improved route planning, as well as front-, rear- and top-view cameras.
The Drophead cannot yet park itself, however, nor does it provide blindspot detection, lane-keeping or radar-controlled braking.
What's the 2012 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe like to drive?
With the roof down on a sunny day, this Rolls-Royce feels gloriously indulgent; its scale, comfort and silently delivered power making a treat of every trip.
The eight-speed transmission's shifts are barely detectable, and it always finds the right gear when brisk acceleration is required.
Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead now with eight-speed auto gearbox
Despite its size, the Drophead is easy to handle because you sit high and the steering is surprisingly accurate.
It's a more agile car than it looks, too, cornering briskly despite some roll.
The ride is, for the most part, pillowy, although the huge 21-inch alloys sometimes send tremors through the seats and steering wheel.
Large wheels can upset the serene ride
What's the 2012 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe like inside?
The cabin is as sumptuous as you'd expect, while the dashboard is a deep-lacquered homage to the carpenter's art.
Hand-crafted, sumptuous interior
The cabin's abundance of leather and rich detailing make the Drophead a pleasure to step into, even if the rear seats are a bit confined and the hood takes time to rise or fall. That's forgivable when you consider the volume of fabric to be folded beneath its teak deck-lid.
There's no wind deflector, so you get some air-swirl in the cabin, but it's far from uncomfortable.
Should I buy one?
If you're one of the few people lucky enough to be able to spend more than 350,000 on a car, then absolutely. The Phantom Drophead Coupe feels incredibly special and remains the ultimate four-seater cabriolet.
That its tranquil progress is matched to unexpectedly potent acceleration and surprising dynamic powers only adds to its appeal.
There isn't a more imposing drop-top than the Rolls-Royce Phantom
Bentley Continental GTC
Maserati Grancabrio
What Car? says...

General Burnside
Known by a variety of names, from the War of Northern Aggression, the War to Make Men Free, to the War of the Rebellion, the Civil War was the bloodiest war in American history. In the 150 years since Robert Lee surrendered to Ulysses Grant at Appomattox Court House, academia has released a profuse amount of literature on the subject. Unlike those texts, Samuel Schmucker's "History of the Civil War" was released during the war. Schmucker described in detail the events that led up to the war, as well as the battles that occurred during it.
This book, released in 1867, two years after the Civil War, is the collection of both Schmucker's volumes into one. It features beautiful plates, printed by some of the most famous artists of the time.

The Search For Ferrous Gold Continues
Hot rodding's never-ending quest for vintage tin goes back to the days when Model Ts were just a few years old and could be had for less than a handful of loose change. The fact that the need for a magazine called Rod & Custom (originally Rods & Customs in May 1953) stems from man's affinity for rescuing older vehicles and personalizing them in a stylish fashion. Trends have come and gone many times in the last 50-plus years, but the one thing that remains the same is the starting point of a forlorn hulk found in some faraway pasture, backyard, or darkened barn. Searching for raw material itself has become both more difficult as supplies grow smaller every day and equally easier with treasures no further away than a few keystrokes on your computer. Remarkably, discovering vintage cars resting in fields and storage lots and neglected in forgotten garages is still an everyday occurrence.
Rod & Custom began documenting the hunt for vintage tin quite by chance after Tex Smith turned in a story to editor Tom Medley with some interesting extra photos on the contact sheet. Tom asked Tex, "What's this stuff?" Tex responded, "Oh, just some old junk I found." Well, Tom had Tex turn the pictures of old cars sitting in fields and behind barns into a story and Tex says those stories got the greatest response of any story he was ever part of. One story, called "Tex's Lost Tin Mine," gave vague clues of some of the resting spots and Tex says even today guys are reading the clues and still finding the tin exactly where he shot it. "The stuff is still out there," Tex says; now we just have to let him lead us on a new expedition so we can see it for ourselves (stay tuned for details!).
Later, a letter to Rod & Custom described a mythical paradise in Chandler, Kansas, of endless project material ripe for the picking. That letter led to a story in the May '68 issue of R&C about an actual automotive graveyard in, of all places, Junction City, Kansas, and then the hunt was on for more of the same. That issue also included the very first installment of the "Vintage Tin" department that would run through Rod & Custom's comings and goings, even spawning a complete "Vintage Tin" issue in December 1972. The column lasted until R&C's (not entirely) final curtain was drawn in 1973.
Nothing spikes our interest around the R&C offices more than a new vintage tin sighting, and that excitement is matched by every rodder with a fresh tetanus shot who dreams of finding their next project just over that hill waiting to be dragged home and turned into their dream ride.
We've been hearing that a lot of the tin being found now is actually in better shape than the cars from yesteryears because the latest discoveries were the cream that was packed away by people hoping to restore it someday and are now past the point of having enough time to do it (or have moved to the big garage in the sky).
We want to see and hear about your vintage tin discoveries so we can share those experiences with the rest of our readers in upcoming issues. So help give the rest of us hope that we too might luck into a find of our own and send some photos to Rod & Custom-Vintage Tin, 774 S. Placentia Ave., Placentia, CA 92870, or e-mail them to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Subscribe To Joseph Gordon-Levitt Will Cut Some Sex From Don Jon's Addiction To Score R-Rating Updates
I've already subscribed
He's soft-shoed through major action set pieces in Inception, broken hearts in (500) Days of Summer and 50/50, and mixed it up with Batman in Dark Knight Rises and action icon Bruce Willis in Looper. But following a string of shorts, actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt became a feature filmmaker, directing the racy rom-com Don Jon's Addiction.
Gordon-Levitt also wrote and starred in the comedy that recently debuted at the Sundance Film Festival, where it earned some rave review, even though our own Katey Rich found the tale of a porn-addicted Jersey Shore Don Juan who looks to evolve into a more mature man "simultaneously banal and offensive." (Check out her full review here.)
But the movie's muddled message and apparent misogyny don't much matter to Relativity Media, which snagged the domestic distribution rights and promised a $25 million print and advertising campaign to promote its release. After all, Don Jon's Addiction is still a movie starring JGL, who has a legion of fans, not only from his feature film work but also from his open-collaboration production company hitRECord.
Still, with smatterings of graphic sex intercut throughout the narrative, Don Jon's Addiction would have a tough battle with the MPAA ahead in its current condition. But speaking to THR at the Berlin International Film Festival, where the film is now screening, Gordon-Levitt acknowledged cuts would have to be made. In fact, he expected as much. Revisionary editing of the festival cut will commence once Gordon-Levitt returns from Berlin. But the budding filmmaker doesn't seem bothered by the censorship demanded to make the movie more commercially viable, Instead he offers:
"I think it is important that those images are in there, but what precisely you see isn't that important. What's important is the rhythm of the film, the repetition of what the Don Jon character does, over and over."
Don Jon's Addiction will play next at the South by Southwest Film Festival. A theatrical release will follow later this year.

Value Line is regarded as the best independent research available. More than just recommendations, Value Line provides the rationale behind its picks for greater understanding.
Value Line offers a number of proprietary measures to help investors identify so-called conservative stocks, the most notable being the Safety Rank. This measure is computed by averaging a stock's Price Stability score and the company's Financial Strength Rating. Safety Ranks range from 1 (Highest) to 5 (Lowest) and are distributed roughly in a bell curve, with the greatest number of stocks scoring 3 (Average) and the smallest number at the extremes (i.e. 1 and 5). Thus, selecting stocks that hold the best possible scores (i.e., 1 or 2) would help investors to avoid riskier fare.
Value Line provides screens each week, published in the Index section of The Value Line Investment Survey, that cull out stocks earning the highest Safety Rank and the second-best Safety Rank (presented as two separate screens). This alleviates the need to rummage through on a stock-by-stock basis, trying to find the most conservative fare. We also added a few other parameters such as a dividend yield above 3.8% and a market cap above $20 billion to ensure only well established companies made the cut. A couple of interesting stocks that made the list (see below) include Altria Group (MO) and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK).
Altria Group
Altria Group, Inc. is a multinational tobacco corporation based out of Virginia which serves as the parent company to Phillip Morris USA and John Middleton, Inc. The company operates in four segments including cigarettes (which make up roughly 85% of 2013 income), smokeless products (12%), wine (1%) and other services (2%). Some of their more popular cigarette brands includes Marlboro, Barton & Hedges, Merit, and Virginia Slims.
Altria reported solid fourth quarter and full-year results in 2013, with earnings growing over the previous year figure of $2.06 per share, to $2.26 a share. However, the industry continues to face pressure as demand continues to decline, and new regulations hamper profitability. The United States cigarette market is expected to decline between 3% and 4% this year. That said, Altria's brand awareness should help offset these headwinds in the domestic market. The company is continually seeking alternate methods of generating income, including e-cigarettes, which have provided a compelling new revenue stream for Big Tobacco. Altria recently launched its own e-cigarette brand called Mark-Ten in select markets, and will look to grow distribution this year, despite rising competition from some of its peers such as Reynolds American (RAI).
Altria's dividend has steadily increased every year, a trend which should continue in 2014. The company will likely pay out about $2.00 per share to its investors in 2014, and the dividend ought to be well covered considering the company's strong financial strength. Additionally, the yield remains above the Value Line median, and the dividend is expected to grow over the three to five year period. With an Above Average Safety score of 2, and the highest mark for Stock Price stability (100 out of 100), we view these shares worthy of consideration for income-seeking conservative investors.
GlaxoSmithKline is a British global research-based healthcare corporation formed in 2000 from the merger of Glaxo Wellcome plc. and SmithKline Beecham plc. The company creates, develops, manufactures, and markets a broad range of products within three operating segments including pharmaceuticals, vaccines and consumer healthcare. GlaxoSmithKline is the world's sixth largest pharmaceutical company in terms of 2013 prescription drug sales. Some of its main competitors include Pfizer (PFE - Free Pfizer Stock Report), Novartis (NVS), and Sanofi (SNY).
After a strong year in 2013, in which earnings rose $0.61 over the 2012 figure, to $3.52 a share, the company is optimistic about 2014 performance considering its healthy product pipeline. Despite the recent fallout from a failed clinical trial for one its lung cancer vaccinations, the company expects to bounce back with testing for asthma and HIV related vaccinations this year. Indeed, the current outlook remains bright with growth projected for the next one- to three-year period on both the top and bottom lines.
While shares of GlaxoSmithKline have remained relatively flat in price since January, we expect some movement to occur after high-profile product launches take place later in the year. The company's strong financial position has helped it raise its quarterly dividend over the past few years, and we expect the full-year payout to reach $2.87 a share for 2014. Dividends are also projected to grow over the next three to five years, as long as the company manages to avoid any setbacks from testing its products. With an above-average dividend yield, north of 5%, income-oriented investors may find this issue attractive.
Too, this equity holds our Highest rank for Safety (1), making it a favorable choice among conservative investors. The company's A+ grade for Financial Strength is also considered top notch. Risk-averse investors looking for current income should consider taking a position here.

Yankees' Francisco homers twice vs. Tigers
LAKELAND, Fla. -- Miguel Cabrera's mammoth two-run home run over the batting eye behind center field punctuated a go-ahead five-run seventh inning, overcoming a two-homer game from Ben Francisco to send the Tigers to a 10-6 win over the Yankees on Saturday afternoon at Joker Marchant Stadium.
On a day when Torii Hunter made the highlight play by keeping a ball in the park, scaling the right-field fence to take back Kevin Youkilis' fly ball in the third inning, Jhonny Peralta, Cabrera and Kevin Russo drove the ball where all the Yankees' outfield could do was watch.
Peralta's drive to the left of the backdrop in center, his second home run of the spring, led off a three-run fifth inning against Andy Pettitte after the left-hander held Detroit to a run on two hits over the first four innings.
Three more hits after Peralta's homer, including an Alex Avila double off the left-field wall and a Hunter RBI double, tied the game. Pettitte rebounded to last 6 1/3 innings in his second start of the spring, more than doubling his innings from his previous outing.
"I got some balls up in that one inning they scored three runs, and even in the inning they scored the first run, I left a changeup up to Torii right where he wants it and he hit that double," Pettitte said. "I felt good. Everything was good, right where I wanted it. I made some bad pitches I left up in the zone, but for the most part I was pretty happy with it."
The five-run seventh came after Pettitte was relieved by Cody Eppley, who failed to retire any of the five batters he faced. Hunter greeted Eppley with a one-out single before Cabrera cleared the estimated 30-foot high backdrop in straightaway center for his fourth homer of Grapefruit League play. Victor Martinez, Matt Tuiasosopo and Avila added RBI hits.
The Yankees whittled their deficit when Francisco jumped a fastball from Tigers closing candidate Bruce Rondon for a two-run homer in the eighth, but former Yankees farmhand Russo slugged an eighth-inning homer to pad the lead.
Francisco's fourth-inning solo homer to the left-field berm was one of four Yankees runs off Anibal Sanchez in their first meeting with the right-hander since he shut them down for seven innings in last October's American League Championship Series. Youkilis gained some measure of revenge for his robbery with a two-run double into the left-field corner in the fifth inning.
The announced crowd of 10,084 is the fourth-largest in the Tigers' 48-year history at Marchant Stadium.
Up next: The Yankees are back at George M. Steinbrenner Field on Sunday, welcoming the Rays for a 1:05 p.m. ET start (Watch on MLB.TV). Adam Warren will have a chance to turn around what has been an unimpressive spring thus far for the right-hander, who is slated to begin the season at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Tampa Bay will counter with right-hander Jeremy Hellickson.

At least two people died in bomb explosions in Iraq, hours after the US vice-president arrived in the Baghdad for talks about the future of US forces in the country.
Three separate blasts rocked the city on Thursday, Iraqi interior ministry officials confirmed.
Joe Biden, the US vice-president, flew into Iraq on an unannounced visit.
He held talks early on Thursday with General Lloyd Austin and James Jeffrey, the US ambassador, at the American embassy in the Iraqi capital. Biden's visit was the first by a senior American official since Nouri al-Maliki, the Iraqi prime minister, was re-appointed for a second term last month. "I'm here to help the Iraqis celebrate the progress they've made. They've formed a government and that's a good thing," Biden stated. "They have got a long way to go."

J is for Judgement
There is more to family history than just collecting and collating facts, certificates and dusty old photographs. It also requires analysis, evaluation and judgement. Among the judgement calls to made are when is a piece of evidence good enough to rely on it and move on. One example being, when I found a William Cracket baptismal record in the right place and close to the ancicipated year could I accept this as great great grandfather William or did I need to keep looking in other nearby locations? That type of judgement cannot be made just on the basis of a single piece of evidence, but should also take into account other sources such as census records, marriage records and death records to reduce the possibility that this may have been another William. Just a short alphabet post for me this time round as I am off exercising some of that judgement trying to break through a couple of Northumbrian brick walls.
If you would like to know more about this alphabet challenge or read alphabet posts from other genealogy bloggers take a look at Family history through the alphabet.

Explore, imagine, create and experiment with shapes, spaces and spatial thinking through hands-on play and learning experiences.
Spatial thinking is part of everyday life and is necessary to navigate, explore and survive in the world. People think spatially all the time – when tying shoes, reading maps, finding the way to the store, packing a suitcase, doing jigsaw puzzles, climbing rocks and cutting sandwiches in half – and they become better with practice. Spatial thinkers are architects designing buildings, pilots flying planes, doctors reading x-rays, plumbers installing pipes, bakers decorating cakes, geologists studying fossils and artists painting landscapes. Kids are spatial thinkers, too!
Spatial thinking is a powerful problem-solving tool and a key to kids' interest and success in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) disciplines. While spatial thinking develops over a lifetime, research suggests that early development of spatial thinking skills increases later achievement in math and science – and that, for young children, hands-on experiences are especially important. However, though kids learn the basics of shape and space, spatial thinking isn't systematically taught in schools.
ThinkSpace is recommended for children ages 4 to 10 – and their adult friends – for maximum understanding and interest. Younger and older children also enjoy many of the exhibit's interactive elements and there are activities especially for toddlers. Museum play guides are on hand to encourage fun and learning. A resource nook contains books about spatial thinking.
Learn more about ThinkSpace on the Museum blog and in its newsletter.
