Genii Tube Improved, LockingThe Genie Tube is an excellent utility prop. A tube is held up to your eye so the audience can see clear through it.
Going one step further, you open the hinged tube to prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is empty. Close up the tube, say a magic word, and begin to produce a large load of silks!
But wait, there's more...this has a New twist on the old Genie tube,
This One Can Be Handed Out!
Bet you can't do that with your current model!

New IYA2009 Flickr group aims to share photos from around the world
2 July 2009
The main driving force behind IYA2009 is the army of amateur astronomers who plan and run events around the globe. Often organisers and participants take photos, but rarely is there a central area where these can be collected and shared.
The IYA2009 Secretariat have decided to use the popular site Flickr to help remedy this. A group called International Year of Astronomy 2009 has been created to share images of IYA2009 events and astrophotos. IYA2009 supporters are encouraged to join the group and add their images to the pool, helping to build an excellent resource.
UK astronomy enthusiasts may also be interested to know that IYA2009 Coordinator Steve Owens has created a group called International Year of Astronomy in the UK which aims to share images of British IYA2009 events.

Eco-DenT Effervescent Toothpowders are proven to harden and strengthen dental enamel as effectively as fluoride toothpastes, but without harmful fluoride additives! Eco-DenT's Effervescent Action leaves your mouth and breath clean and fresh, your teeth polished and smooth, and actually does this less abrasively than brushing with just water! Eco-DenT Toothpowder doesn't sell you the water and glycerin that make up half the weight of pastes and gels, so Eco-DenT is incredibly economical.
Directions: Apply a small amount to moistened toothbrush. Brush as usual.

Doxy failure
Three month later he developed recurrent, progressive symptoms -- muscle pain -- increasing joint pain -- profound fatigue, and, drenching night sweats. New neurological symptoms appeared: numbness and tingling, memory loss and cognitive dysfunction.
He presented to me for further care. A 13 band WB showed 3/3 IgM bands. Non diagnostic Bb IgG WB bands were present. He was seronegative for Babesia microti/duncani. He was treated for chronic Lyme disease and Babesiosis, diagnosed clinically.
After many months of antibiotic therapy his disease is in remission, still on antibiotics.
Additional data: C6 peptide ELISA had been 6.41 initially and is n0w 2.3. C4a levels have been elevated. CD 57 levels have been normal. A wet mount showed no bacteria.
His previously active inflammatory bowel disease is now quiescent. A recent colonoscopy was normal.
Three weeks of Doxy for acute Lyme failed. This may be more frequent that commonly held. It has been suggested by some that this is due to co-infections. I am not sure. The average person, with an intact immune system, should be able to throw off both Babesia and Bartonella.
Perhaps in some cases, Lyme is able to sequester itself quickly. Other explanations may be offered. Perhaps in some, already-infected asymptomatic patients, clinical Lyme is triggered by a new infection. The other possibility is a bit more frightening. Perhaps strains of Lyme are now resistance to Doxy. This could explain some Doxy failures with response to other treatments, such as Amox/Biaxin. This patient did respond to Doxy at first. But, partial resistance is know to occur with other bacteria. This is all thinking out loud conjecture.
Lyme disease is associated with a multitude of autoimmune diseases. Crohn's and ulcerative colitis are both autoimmune diseases. Coincidence?

My son and others I've known of had Crohn's like presentation and a bartonella infection. In my son's case he was dx with CD after biopsy. A couple of years later after he was dx with Lyme and had positive Bart. titers, we had the intestinal biopsy sample tested by PCR and it was pos. for Bartonella henslea.
He improved with abx and the GI doc then said that maybe it wasn't Crohn's (he also mentioned that he had not had granulomas).
He is still in tx for chronic Lyme and Bart but his GI sx have been manageable and his current adult GI doc doesn't think he ever had Crohn's. Perhaps Bartonella infection should be considered when there are GI manifestations.

What a powerfull, well stated post.
I feel that my Lyme was triggered by 3 simultaneous vaccinations that I was given at an initial doctor appointment. I had a rash a year prior to this along with horrible joint pain and vertigo/fatigue but brushed it all off. Then, about a year and a half later (when I got the flu, tetanus and pneumo vaccine) I had a full blown neurological onset that almost made me end my life at age 36.
It has taken persistance through frustration to find a doctor to re-test and LISTEN to me. I finally got a positive (very) lyme western blot and the doctors are listening to me like I am sane versus insane! I am on 3 weeks of Doxy to clear a disease that has profoundly affected my life in every way since the summer of 2006.
On a final note, I am feeling better, but am afraid I will NEVER be the same.

Or perhaps IDSA should consider extending the antibiotic treatment until it really kills the bacteria because perhaps some Borrelia might be killed in three weeks but other survives and fortifies after the treatment is stopped? Plus if the patient is just treated with Doxy and no other type of medicine, the parasites and other bugs are left untouched? Ignoring the co-infections is ignoring the severity of the illness! My opinion.

Doxy has always helped to reduce symptoms for me, but it never came close to a lasting remission.
Not recommended for anyone to do, but I got lots of Doxy prescribed for "malaria prevention" and took high doses and it significantly reduced symptoms.
After taking Plaquinil + Clarithromycin and some Flagyl I experienced a remission that has lasted for several months. I think I stopped that treatment too soon, because I am slowly seeing symptoms return.
Tick-borne bugs are almost impossible to kill it seems. It's a true nightmare.

I too have had success on Doxy. In fact it's the only thing that seems to reduce the Lyme load to a place of functional living. I do worry though that it isn't a long-term solution. Plaquenil/Zithromax was of NO help and has taken me back from months of progress.
Do you ever see Doxy work long-term? It's amazing how individualized treatment regimens have to be.

or perhaps his Crohn's weakened his immune system so that Lyme had a much more rapid dissemination than is normal for a healthy patient.
I feel like we'd heard of doxy failures for acute cases for as long as they've been prescribing doxy (granted, earlier on in the 80's., doctors were probably prescribing 10 day courses, not 3 week ones, but there were exceptions).
- March 16, 2010 at 5:02 PM
Can someone please tell me who this doc is? My son (6 years old) just tested IGG positive through IgeneX and has neurological issues. We are seeing a LLMD and he put my son on oral amoxicillin. I've read that neuro Lyme requires IV abx, so I'd like a 2nd opinion about treatment protocol. My email address is firstname.lastname@example.com. Thanks!

Blog topic suggestion: "Herxheimer Reaction"
I've had Lyme for many years, and I have had my fair share of Herxheimer reactions. I find that many people who speak of their disease use the term "herxing" indiscriminantly to describe any discomfort resulting from the illness.
For me the real herxheimer reaction is a short, but very intense peak of symptoms that peak in a matter of hours, with subsequent recovery that can take 2-3 days or so. These reactions are apparently due to an acute exodus of spirochete bacteria due to a massive immune reaction (no claim to know much about this). Typically I get sore throat in the middle of a working day and rapidly get worse and finally wake up in the middle of the night with the throat feeling as if I had the worst flu ever. I mean REALLY sore, to the point that I am not able to swallow water. Then it mysteriously dissipates within just a couple of hours leaving me feeling very shaken and battered, but the throat feeling much better. This always happens after an "immune lowering event" such as lack of sleep, stress, travel, minor colds etc...
My point is that when people say they "herx continuously" for months on end, I don't think these are true herxheimer reactions, but severe discomfort resulting from toxins released from dying pathogens. If you are "herxing" for more than a couple of days, it ain't herxing in my opinion - and the true peak is short and VERY brutal.
I don't know how many true herxheimer reactions I have had, but I can probably count them on my fingers - even though I have had this for over a decade. Generalized discomfort is almost chronic though. As I understand it, true herxing is a spirochete-specific phenomenon.
I mention this since it seems the herxheimer is the most distinguishing feature of spirochete infection as far as I know. If people haven't had this, maybe their problems are dominated by co-infections?

Does anyone know anything about Low Dosage Naltrexone? I think it's worth looking into, because all these antibiotics, willy nilly, is making us crazy. It seems that the immune system shuts down with Lyme. I'm looking for anything to get it up and running. Also, look into studies on AHCC,a mushroom derived medication. There is a study that shows an increase in NK cell activity of 249% with AHCC use. (Natural Killer cells are T-Cells)Good luck to us!

my son has been on LDN for several months. Not sure if that's what has helped along with antibiotics and other supplements, but he's had enough improvement that his doc wants him to stay on it. He seems to be tolerating treatment better along with cutting out sugar from his diet.
Check out http://www.lowdosenaltrexone.org/

IF three weeks of doxy does not work then the patient probably has a preexisting deficiency in the cellular immune system. Also, some bacteria are able to alter the expression of certain enzymes to facilitate cellular immune suppression. So in these patients LYME is more difficult to treat.
Following the enzymatic pathway for suppression, the amino acid Citrulline, should be able to reverse the suppression of the cellular immune system. It might be interesting to measure the cellular immune status of patient that do not respond to three weeks of doxy-- the failure in treatment might be scientifically explained and then a rational treatment plan devised.

Yes - I agree from my experience that doxy can fail even with early Lyme.
Could have to do with the host environment, is the person otherwise healthy with a good immune system.

I am about to see an infectious disease specialist to try to get my lyme under control. Basically 2 rounds of Doxy and symptoms keep coming back. I was just wondering what some peoples first symptoms were. I didn't notice a rash so I am just not sure how long I had before I first started having issues.
If anyone wants to read my full history I have it here.

Probably I will jump to a Windows Tablet on next purchase.
Android has improved a lot since first release and is better today than iOS from developer perspective.
From a developer point of view, Apple is not going at the same speed as Blackberry, Microsoft or Android since they are using an old programming base from the Next platform, which is difficult to port to new challenges. The platform of the new blackberry is a technology marvel, again, from a internal software perspective. (I don't like blackberries, but the new blackberry 10 OS is notoriusly impressive)

Is a little confusing due Chrome is from Google, and android is also from Google, but they are not the same.
Google browser share the same root as Apple Safari browser (Webkit), so is even more confusing.
At the end, I will suggest use Chrome browser for Android and the stock browser for Apple mobile products. Looks like are the logical options. One thing is an individual developer perspective, a very different thing is an end user perspective like Klaus point it. Fortunately for all of us, we have many different options and we are not in a OS monopoly as previous times.

Chris Brown isn't singing a happy tune right now. In fact, the guy is hinting that he may actually give up singing altogether.
The Grammy winner took to Twitter on Tuesday and seemed to suggest that he would soon be retiring from music.
"Don't worry mainstream America. After this X album, it'll probably be my last album," Brown wrote.
NEWS: Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran have some fun at Orange County County Fair
He later added, "Being famous is amazing when it's for ur music and talent. I'm tired of being famous for a mistake I made when I was 18. I'm cool & over it!"
The latter tweet was no doubt in reference to the 2009 assault on Rihanna.
Brown's comments come just one day after he turned himself in and was booked in connection with his on-going hit-and-run case.
According to the booking report obtained from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, the singer arrived at 2:40 p.m. on Monday and was released less than an hour later.
Last month, a judge revoked Brown's felony probation stemming from the 2009 assault and set a probation violation hearing for Aug. 18.
Meanwhile, X, Brown's sixth studio album, is reportedly scheduled to drop on Aug. 20.

Dec 1997
Mourning jewelry mirrored the lives and times of the people who wore it. It
was a souvenir to remember a loved one, a reminder to the living of the
inevitability of death, and a status symbol, especially during the Victorian
The earliest examples of mourning jewelry were found in Europe in the 15th
and 16th centuries. Black and white enameled heads or skulls were often set
into rings and brooches. In the 17th and 18th centuries it was a status
symbol to present mourning rings to friends and families of the bereaved.
Mourning jewelry reached its height of popularity in England after the death
of Prince Albert in December 1861. Queen Victoria went into deep mourning,
which was imitated by her subjects when faced with their own bereavements.
Following Albert's premature death, Queen Victoria ordered that his dressing
room at Windsor Castle remain exactly as he left it. His clothes were laid
out every night, and hot water prepared for nightly ablutions. The queen
slept with a photo of the head and shoulders of Albert taken as he lay dead.
All family photos included a life size marble bust of Albert in the center of
the group. Victoria required everyone at court to wear mourning attire on
social occasions for three years. She remained a semi-recluse and wore black
for the rest of her life.
In the United States the use of mourning jewelry increased with the outbreak
of the Civil War. This coincided with the black jewelry used in England in
sympathy with Queen Victoria's widowhood.
Mourning rings were presented by the bereaved family to friends and family
members as a memorial to the deceased. The earliest known example is a 15th
century English ring, decorated with a skull, a worm and the name "Iohes
The Death's Head motif (skull) was still much used on mourning rings in the
17th century. A ring presented after the execution of Charles I in 1649 shows
an intaglio portrait of Charles I on one side and a skull and a crown on the
other. Inside the inscription reads, "The glory of England has departed."
The presentation of mourning rings was a status symbol in the 17th and 18th
centuries. Many wealthy people included in their wills instructions on how
the rings would be designed, and how many should be made. Samuel Pepys,
English diarist and naval official (1633-1703) willed that 129 mourning rings
be given away at his funeral.
In the 18th century finely scrolled mourning rings were made with white
enamel used for the death of a single person and black enamel for a married
person. The name, age, dates of birth and death of the deceased were
inscribed around the shank of the ring. Funeral urns, coffins, serpents or
miniatures of those mourned were set in the ring surrounded by small seed pearls.
In the 19th century mourning rings given out to family and friends were often
made from plaited hair of the loved one. The rings were gold with a ringlet
of hair enclosed in a locket-type setting.
Jet has been used for mourning for thousands of years. Highly suitable for
carving, examples have been found in prehistoric caves. The use of jet was
known to the Greeks as far back as 200 B. C. The Venerable Bede (673-735 A.
D.) wrote of jet, "Britain has much excellent jet which is black and
sparkling, glittering at the fire and when heated drives away serpents". An
early superstition was that its shiny surface was brilliant enough to deflect
the evil eye away from the person wearing it.
During the Middle Ages in Europe, jet took a Christian significance. From
the 14th-20th centuries, jet carvings were sold to pilgrims at holy sites in
Spain. It is not surprising that it became one of the most common substances
used in mourning jewelry.
Jet is a hard coal-like material which is formed when waterlogged driftwood
sinks to the ocean floors and becomes embedded in the mud. Through heat,
pressure and chemical action, the wood is transformed into a compact black
substance that is quite fragile. It is found throughout the world in Spain,
Germany, Canada, Nova Scotia, France and the United States.
The finest jet, however, was mined in Whitby, Yorkshire, England. Mining
started in the early 19th century, and by 1850 there were fifty jet workshops
in Whitby. Jewelers found jet to be lightweight and well suited to carving.
It was the perfect material for making large lockets, brooches, bracelets and
necklaces. After Albert's death, Queen Victoria decreed that only jet jewelry
was to be worn at court for the first year of mourning. By 1873 two hundred
jet shops sprung up in Whitby.
Today it is illegal to mine jet in Whitby because the only jet left is in
seams in the walls of the cliffs over the town. To remove it from the cliffs
would cause them to tumble down and destroy the town. The two remaining jet
cutters today have to rely on pieces that wash up on the beaches of this
seacoast town. Because of its scarcity, jet jewelry is very precious, and
early examples are avidly collected. To test for jet, Jeanenne Bell in
Answers and Questions About Old Jewelry suggests you carefully rub the piece
across some concrete such as a sidewalk. If it leaves a brownish, black mark,
the piece is jet.
Due to the shortage of jet, many imitations began to appear. One of these,
French jet, is a black glass produced in the United States from 1893 by the
Libbey Glass Company in Ohio. It is heavier than jet and was used mainly for
beads and small items. The United States also manufactured 'English Crape
Stone' which is a material made from onyx, then abraded with acids and colored
to produce a dull, black finish. Mourning jewelry in this finish was exported
to England, France, Belgium and Austria.
Other imitations such as dyed horn and early plastics appeared. Vulcanite
was an American invention made from sulpherized rubber. It can be
distinguished from jet by exposing it to light. Vulcanite turns from black to
Another substance similar to jet is gutta percha, a natural material for
mourning jewelry. Gutta percha is a black or brownish hard rubber material
made from the sap of a Malayan tree. It was introduced to Paris in 1842.
Durable and highly impressionable, it lent itself well to the Victorian taste
for embellishment, and many lockets, brooches, bracelets and walking cane
heads were made from it. Many pieces are still available to collectors at
reasonable prices.
Hair, a symbol of life, has been associated with death and funerals in many
cultures. Egyptian tomb paintings portray scenes showing pharaohs and queens
exchanging hair balls as tokens of enduring love. In Mexico, Indian women
kept hair combings in a special jar which was buried with their bodies so that
the soul would not become tired looking for missing parts, and delay its
passage to the other world.
Hairwork has early commercial roots in Scandinavian countries, where some is
still actively being done. In Sweden because of the population boom in the
early 1800's, scarcity of farm land, and many cold summers; life was difficult
for small farmers in rural areas. In order to survive and keep their farms,
they turned to crafts on a part-time basis. Each village developed its own
special trade.
In the small village of Vamhus, Dalarna, Sweden hair plaiting became a
necessity for the town's survival. A village woman who was skilled at hair
plaiting taught the craft to friends and relatives. Soon this small town of
1800 had as many as 300 hair workers. Because there was no market for hair
jewelry in the impoverished village, it was necessary for the hair workers to
take long journeys to sell their wares. Young girls would divide up into
teams of three or four and travel to a country in Europe, learn the language
and take their art with them.
The craft of hairwork spread throughout Europe. Beautifully detailed
landscapes and floral designs were made by jewelers using human hair. In
England in the late 18th century early neo-classical style pieces were
bordered with seed pearls surrounding the words "In Memorium" and a panel of
simple, twisted hair. During the 19th century Queen Victoria presented
Empress Eugene with a bracelet of her own hair, and the Queen recorded in her
diary that the Empress was "touched to tears."
In the 1853 Crystal Palace Exposition, a full line of hair jewelry was
displayed, as well as a full tea set made entirely of hair. By the 1850's
hair was an expensive commodity with a variety of commercial uses. Every
Spring hair merchants visited fairs and markets throughout Europe. They
offered young girls ribbons, combs and trinkets in exchange for their hair.
Hair jewelry caught on in the United States as well. During the Civil War as
the soldiers left home to join the fight, they would leave a lock of hair with
their families. Upon the soldier's death, the hair was often made into a
piece of mourning jewelry or placed in a locket. These were gold or black,
and were sometimes engraved with "In Memory Of" and the initials or names of
the deceased.
Godey's Lady's Book endorsed the fashion of hair jewelry and made it easy to
acquire. The following excerpt extolling the virtues of hairwork is from c. 1850:
"Hair is at once the most delicate and last of our materials and
survives us like
love. It is so light, so gentle, so escaping from the idea of death, that, with a
lock of hair belonging to a child or friend we may almost look up to heaven
and compare notes with angelic nature, may almost say, I have a piece of thee
here, not unworthy of thy being now."
In 1855, the magazine offered to accommodate any lady wishing hair made up
into jewelry, upon receipt of the hair and the price for making it. The
hairwork jewelry sold through Godey's was described as a superior product,
graceful in design and durable in quality. The gold in the finely chaised
mountings was of a warm reddish tone which contrasted beautifully with
intricate plaits of the hair.
Beginning in the 1850's through the 1900's, hairwork became a drawing room
pastime. Godey's Lady's Book and Peterson's Magazine gave instructions and
patterns for making brooches, cuff links, and bracelets at home. To further
the craze for the homecraft, Godey's reminded readers that while mourning
etiquette decreed that only jet jewelry was allowed for first mourning, for
the second mourning, one could wear a brooch and bracelet made of hair with a
gold and black enamel clasp. Even a watch chain or plain gold belt buckle was
permissible for widowers to wear if made of hair or if it enclosed hair.
The work was done on a round table. Depending on the height of the table, it
could be done sitting or standing. Women's work tables were usually 32 or 33"
high, and men's tables stood four feet. Preparation was important. The hair
must be boiled in soda water for 15 minutes. It was then sorted into lengths
and divided into strands of 20-30 hairs. Most pieces of jewelry required long
hair. For example, a full size bracelet called for hair 20 to 24" long.
Sometimes horse hair was used because it was coarser than human hair, and thus
easier for a beginner.
Almost all hairwork was made around a mold or firm material. Snake bracelets
and brooches, spiral earrings and other fancy hair forms required special
molds which were made by local wood turners. The mold was attached to the
center hole in the work table. The hair was wound on a series of bobbins, and
weights were attached to the braid work to maintain the correct level and to
keep the hair straight. When the work was finished and while still around the
mold, it was taken off, boiled for 15 minutes, dried and removed from the
mold. It was then ready to go to a jewelers for mounting.
Victorian hair jewelry is available to collectors in a variety of forms, and
prices are still quite reasonable. A few museums where hairwork is displayed
are the Dearborn Historical Society and the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn,
Michigan and the Swedish Institute, Minneapolis, Minnesota. Sandy Freel, a
museum volunteer, demonstrates hairwork at Living History Farms in Urbandale,
Iowa. Call (515) 278-5286 for information.

The fashion for all mourning jewelry came to an end at the turn of the 20th
century with the death of Queen Victoria, the onset of World War I and the
increased freedom for women.
Joseph Topping, owner of Morning Glory Antiques and Collectibles of New York
City, started selling miniatures and silhouettes in 1980. After doing
business as usual, a significant event took place in Topping's career in 1983.
"I bought a complete collection of mourning jewelry," Topping tells us.
This resulted in Topping becoming one of a very few dealers specializing in
mourning jewelry. Topping deals in all varieties of mourning jewelry, such as
rings, bracelets, stickpins, watch fobs and bracelets. "I was especially
pleased to get six pieces of 18th century hair jewelry from the same family
all in the same box. It's a rare find indeed! I bought it at an auction in
London," tells Topping.
"I make quite a few trips every year to England for my purchase of mourning
jewelry," says Topping. He explains that it's difficult to find mourning
jewelry in the United States. He tells us there is only a small group of
mourning jewelry collectors in the United States because some people find it
somewhat morbid. Topping tells us it was just the opposite. It brought joy
and comfort of the bereaved.

What started in June as a project to teach my daughter and her friends how to cook soup became so much more! With God's grace and blessings, it blossomed and grew into a rich and generous opportunity for believers and non-believers to come together and demonstrate goodness and caring and serve the homeless in San Francisco. And, along the way, we were touched and grew thanks to the wisdom of those in the City. Isn't that what this journey is all about? All of us, regardless of faith or background, reaching out to help each other live a better life?
Every day, life presents opportunities to help someone in need. At first glance, the video may appear to be only about helping the homeless. After all, every night for the past 50 years, San Francisco Night Ministry has provided support ministers who walk the streets from 10:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m., offering face-to-face conversations to those who are lonely, anxious and afraid. In this video, those served included the 80 homeless people who enjoyed a warm cup of soup following the bilingual English-Spanish Open Cathedral service, highlighting a small portion of the over 10,000 meals served annually by the organization.
However, the experience of making the soup served many more than the homeless that evening. It also served my daughter and her friends, taught how to handle a knife, how to cut onions and how to clean up after touching chicken. They were also taught about heritage and family and how to make a healthy, traditional Filipino soup using a recipe my husband's mother cooked for him when he was a young boy and felt ill. Thanks to the generous financial donation from Thrivent Lutheran Action Teams, they also learned that large companies can believe in social justice and supporting communities. Also, by listening to the homeless speak during prayer time at Open Cathedral, they were taught about the
importance of faith and that joy and laughter can exist during sad situations.
The experience also served my amazing neighbor Monique Ortiz, one of the many pastors who works with SF Night Ministry. For the past few years, she has scrambled around Thursday morning, pulling together a meal for those who gather for worship and for those who quickly assemble after, eager to gain fortification from the food provided. Her beautiful heart greets all of her parishioners each week, accepting them in their current physical and mental state, and sharing God's love and goodness.
Creating the song served the souls of Alyssa McCoy and Ryan Filipo, gifted musicians who felt the spirit move within them as they worked together to write and perform their rendition of "This Little Light of Mine."
The whole process of serving, from the shopping to requesting funds for the foods to teaching the girls how to cook to traveling to the city and meeting the beautiful community that meets weekly on 16th and Mission – all of it nourished my soul. As I continue to seek my calling and purpose and struggle with balance in life, I was brought to tears to hear the stories and the sincerity of those in the city. I was honored to meet them and learn more about their lives and their struggles, and to witness the power of faith.
I also recognize the power of letting my little light shine through the creative process of sharing a vision with others, seeking resources for assistance, learning how to use my Flipvideo camera and watching as God's grace works wonders. From friends and neighbors who babysat my younger sons or shared an encouraging word, to Victoria Jones who volunteered her amazing video editing services, to Ali Samuels who helped serve food, to Veronica Sullivan who captured the final video scenes, to my sister Karen Sill and friends Heather Young and Shelley Rice who have served as cheerleaders and editors along the way.
I am clear that this experience is about far more than serving the homeless – it's about capturing the opportunity to live generously, letting your light shine and watching as wonderful things unfold!

City of Lincoln
Mayor's Office
2004 Media Releases
Mayor Coleen J. Seng today announced that local agencies serving the homeless have been awarded more than $1.5 million in federal grants.
"While our overall economy in Lincoln is strong, there are still many individuals and families who are in need," said Mayor Seng. "With these funds, our local agencies can do an even better job of moving people along the path from homelessness to self-sufficiency."
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)awards "Continuum of Care" grants through a competitive process. The grants provide permanent and transitional housing as well as job training, health care, mental health counseling, substance abuse treatment and child care. All of the grants received by Lincoln agencies are renewals. They are:
The local agencies which provide services to those in need are members of the Lincoln Lancaster County Homeless Coalition, founded in the mid-1980s. The Coalition formed a Continuum of Care Planning and Evaluation Committee in 1996 to submit the application for federal funds, to identify service gaps, to coordinate the "Point in Time Count"of the homeless and to conduct peer review of service providers.
The total in grants awarded to Nebraska agencies is nearly $5 million. HUD officials say the grants will support more than 3,700 programs nationwide, and more than 700,000 Americans will receive services. Details on the HUD grants can be found at www.hud.gov/offices/cpd/homeless/budget/2003/index.cfm.

After two years and $243 million in historically accurate improvements, the Union Depot in downtown St. Paul will reopen as a transit hub for commuters for the first time in more than 40 years. An all-day public celebration featuring Winter Carnival royalty, the rededication of a Snoopy statue, building tours and a free family movie takes place on Dec. 8.
This is the first time that the 1920s-era facility will be fully open to the public since the last train left the station in 1971.
Metro Transit buses will begin service at 7 a.m. on Dec. 8, inaugurating more than 300 arrivals and departures each weekday. Free rides to and from the Union Depot will be offered from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Route 21. Riders will be able to download a free pass from a website, uniondepot.org, later this month.
Tours and performances will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a family movie night in the waiting room at 5 p.m. The depot is located at 214 E. Fourth St. in Lowertown, overlooking Kellogg Boulevard.
Plans call for Jefferson Regional Bus Lines to move into the Union Depot in early 2013. The One-on-One Bike Studio will open a full-service bicycle center that offers storage, a repair shop and showers and lockers. Later in 2013, Amtrak is expected to locate its Twin Cities station in the Union Depot. The Central Corridor Light Rail Transit line, or Green Line, will begin service outside the depot in 2014.

Add the projects from the website (htdocs/contrib/projects.xml). At this point, all this is is a "blind conversion" from the xml file to individual mdwn files. I did this by using a custom xslt file and some manual cleanups on the files. Most of these projects are still misclassified as they do not list the correct difficulty or the category they list is not yet defined in the wiki.

I grew up on Long Island and I spent most of my life there. When I was diagnosed with HIV in 1992 I didn't feel sick, but I was prescribed AZT. I was extremely nervous about taking it because there was such a negative stigma associated with HIV on Long Island. The information from AIDS organizations in New York City had not made its way out there. Many people still believed that HIV was a punishment for specific groups of people, like drug users and prostitutes. I had always heard horror stories about people dying from AIDS, and I personally knew at least 30 people who had passed away.
To my knowledge there are very few organizations or medical programs that provide services to people with HIV on Long Island. For example, one of the HIV programs that I attended was on the "infectious diseases" floor of a hospital. It was inevitable that when you stepped into the elevator in that hospital and pressed the button for the "infectious diseases" floor that someone would assume that you are going to that floor to receive HIV treatment. Not everyone in that elevator would know that the HIV programs were housed on that floor, but it was something I worried about. I also remember seeing people from my neighborhood in the waiting room at the hospital which caused me to worry if they would disclose my status without my consent.
Many of the organizations that served people with HIV did not offer much privacy, or the name of the agency made it clear what type of services they provided. Because it was not as easy for me to feel safe and somewhat anonymous at these organizations, I stopped going.
My husband kept trying to convince me that I wasn't positive, and that AZT was killing people faster than HIV, so I might as well stop taking it. I couldn't help believing what he said -- I was in a state of denial myself and I was using drugs. I stopped taking the AZT. At that time because I was healthy I thought I could just take my chances without meds instead of enduring the side effects of AZT. I also thought, in a twisted way, that if I didn't take my meds then I wouldn't have to admit that I was positive.
Even though my husband had convinced me that I wasn't positive, deep in my heart I knew that I was. I was just so scared of what that would mean for me. I remember sitting in the waiting room at the hospital waiting to see my doctor and noticing how so many of the other people in the waiting room had discolored skin. I couldn't help but think that I would begin to look like that after taking AZT.
In 1996, after a number of years without taking AZT, I developed a severe case of pneumonia. I needed thoracic surgery to repair my collapsed lung. I was in a great amount of pain and at death's door. After I made it out of surgery my doctor suggested that I have an HIV test. In the back of my head I already knew that I was positive, but I hoped that maybe my first diagnosis was a mistake.
So I traveled to Hempstead to get an HIV test for the second time, and I tested positive. At this point I finally admitted to myself that I had HIV. Soon after that -- after I found out that my CD4 count was 77 and my viral load was 55,000 -- my doctor prescribed Combivir. My CD4 count began to go up, even though one of my meds, Norvir, was horrific. It was only available in a liquid form in 1997, and the only way I could stomach the awful taste was for my son to force-feed it to me with a spoonful of chocolate Nutella.
It was extremely difficult for me to feel stable while trying to keep a strict medication regimen, working full time, taking care of my son and a mentally ill father, and avoiding my abusive husband.
At the time I was working in the health care field, but I continued to use drugs to get high. Then my husband became violent toward me. It was extremely difficult for me to feel stable while trying to keep a strict medication regimen, working full time, taking care of my son and a mentally ill father, and avoiding my abusive husband.
In 2000 my doctor put me on Sustiva and Truvada. This regimen was much easier for me, as it cut me down to one dose a day, which was a welcome relief. I also stopped using drugs in 2000 and have been clean ever since. Then in 2005 I began taking Atripla, and I haven't had any severe side effects with Atripla. Later that year, I came across a flier for a positive relationships support group and started attending. I met so many people who were living long, fulfilling lives even though they were positive. I didn't experience anything like this before and it gave me hope that there was life after HIV. I had finally come to terms with my status through the guidance I received from other HIV+ people that participated in these programs. The friends that I made gave me the extra support I needed to leave my abusive husband.
After I left him in 2006 and moved to Brooklyn I became a client at several agencies in the city and continued attending support groups for people living with HIV. While I was living on Long Island I only heard about people dying from HIV. Once I moved into New York City, I met so many people who were living long, fulfilling lives even though they were positive. The agencies that I began receiving services from provided me with endless support, along with new friends and peers to help guide me through life with the virus.
My son has been a guardian angel throughout my struggle in coming to terms with being positive. He found out that I had the virus when he came across some medical papers of mine, and has been at my side ever since. When I was in the hospital with pneumonia he took it upon himself to research what types of treatments were available for me, and he was only 17 at the time. He has been such a strong advocate for me over the years, and continues to support me on my journey to wellness.
Not only have I been able to take advantage of services by several organizations in the city, but I was given the opportunity to represent GMHC at the annual National Conference on African-Americans and AIDS. I attended several workshops and collected materials to bring back to the groups that I attend. I am thankful to be on my way out of a place of denial and on my way to a bright future that provides me with opportunities to empower myself while living with HIV.

Malibu's Epic Battle of Surfers vs. Environmentalists
Malibu's Epic Battle of Surfers vs. Environmentalists
When a swell approaches Malibu's most famous beach, Surfrider, it begins breaking just above a long, curved alluvial fan of sediment and stones near the mouth of Malibu Creek. It then flattens out, rears up again and rounds a small cove before running toward the shore for 200 yards. Here, according to Matt Warshaw's book The History of Surfing, it "becomes the faultless Malibu wave of legend"—a wave that spawned Southern California surf culture. The plot of the classic 1966 movie Endless Summer was the quest for, in the words of the film's director-narrator, "a place as good as Malibu." In 2010, Surfrider was designated the first World Surfing Reserve.
Stephenie Glas moved to this stretch of Los Angeles County in the late 1990s. Blond, athletic and in her mid-20s at the time, she settled in a Malibu neighborhood with gaping ocean views and took to the water with her kiteboard. "She was one of the very few women that would hit the lip [of waves] with style," an acquaintance of hers observed. "No holding back!"
Always something of an over-achiever, Glas had worked her way through UCLA by starting a personal-training business, and later set her sights on becoming a firefighter. In 2005 she joined the Los Angeles Fire Department, a force that was 97 percent male. "I picked this career knowing I would have to spend the next 25 years proving myself to men," Glas said in a magazine profile.
To what extent her hard-charging nature contributed to her becoming a polarizing figure in close-knit Malibu is open to question. But she dove into one of the most surprising environmental disputes in memory not long after her partner, a 55-year-old goateed carpenter and surfer named Steve Woods, contracted a gastrointestinal illness following a session at Surfrider.
The water there, everyone knew, was contaminated with runoff from commercial and residential developments as well as effluent that flowed out of a wastewater treatment plant through Malibu Creek and into Malibu Lagoon before pulsing into the ocean. Eye, ear and sinus infections and gastrointestinal ailments were common side effects of paddling out at Surfrider. In the late 1990s, four surfers died after contracting water-borne diseases, reportedly acquired in the sludgy waves, and a fifth was nearly killed by a viral infection that attacked his heart.

Common Sense Be Damned, We Want Cool And Insane
If there's one thing Mopar guys all have in common, it's a love of history. We all remember the days when muscle cars ruled the roads, instead of the current regime of under-powered, jelly-bean looking rides that are thrust upon us now. We remember the obnoxious colors, the loud exhausts, and the time when a threat of not being able to get leaded fuel with a 105 octane rating wasn't even a thought. Those are what many consider the "good ole days."
But many of us seem to selectively forget that our beloved cars of the time never idled very well, were grossly over-cammed, and drank enough fuel to keep a small city driving today. But that's the great thing about memories; they're always about the cool stuff.
Back in the March '10 issue, my ramblings in my Off the Line column hinted about going back to the good ole days. To me, driving an over-cammed engine with no vacuum that won't idle under 1,200 rpm is still cool. While not being able to buy fuel at the local gas station may be a problem, it does add a certain amount to the coolness factor of the car. Anyway, Project Valiant Effort was due for a face lift and personality change, and in the April '10 issue, we handled the face lift by adding a set of Holeshot wheels and Mickey Thompson tires. Now it's time to address the personality.
The Valiant has been a fun car with its pump-gas friendly 360, and the engine is more than adequate when one wants to play. However, we want to take the demeanor of our Valiant from simple cruiser to stupidly cool cruiser. To accomplish this, we looked back to the good ole days and thought about the cars we remember that were running big compression, over carburetion, and cams with enough lift and duration to snap a standard valvespring. Sure, we all know it's overkill, but it left enough of an impression to keep the memory alive, so here we are. We want to relive our youth. We want to remember a time when if we had to choose between a new camshaft and taking our girl to the Prom, we couldn't wait to show our buddies our new bumpstick.
There are a couple of different ways we could approach this engine build. One way would be to try and make every last bit of horsepower possible by using trick parts, and spending a lot of time refining every aspect of the parts and assembly. Lately though, we have been getting a substantial amount of letters from guys who just can't afford all the trick parts and machining and want to see us start doing stuff without getting carried away. So for this build, we're simply going to do only the machining that is required, and then bolt this thing together. In the end, the engine may not make as much power as it could, but with the right parts selection, power will still be respectable-we hope.
The Foundation
Knowing that this engine's planned activities will stretch the limits of an "old," seasoned engine block, we felt it necessary to upgrade and started with a Mopar Performance 340 resto block PN 5007552. Yes, using a Mopar resto block will add to the cost, but this non-Siamese bore block (Siamese version is available PN 5153478) is machined to work with all 340 production components, is a brand-new casting made from high-nickel cast iron for added strength (not a thin wall casting), has four-bolt main bearing caps, and a 340 journal size. It also has a thicker pan rail and webbing (like the '70 340 T/A version), a thicker deck surface, and thicker-bore walls in major and minor thrust directions. The block is rough bored at 3.900-inches to allow various bore sizes, from 3.910-inches to 4.080-inches (finish bore and honing required). Deck height is approximately 9.600-inches. The new resto block includes the original 340 production-casting part number with an "M" added at the end to identify the Mopar 340 block. We happened to find a block that had some unusual cylinder scarring and got a good deal on it. The scoring wasn't bad, and when we took it to our machinist (Auto Performance Engines), the bores cleaned up nicely at 4.060-it was 4.040 when we got it.
The rotating assembly we're using consists of Mopar Performance's 4.00-inch stroke crankshaft and Eagle's 6.123-inch connecting rods (PNs P5007252 and CRS6123C3D respectively). For pistons, and a lot of the ancillary items we needed, we contacted Summit Racing and ordered a set of Keith Black forged pistons (PN UEM-KB744-060) and Total Seal rings (PN TSR-T3690-65). For those of you keeping track, these pistons are a flat-top design with two valve reliefs. Although we said that we would not be using any tricks to refine the parts we're using, we did balance the assembly. There's no reason to not have these parts balanced.
This brings us to the heart of this endeavor, and that's the camshaft. According to believed instructions, a roller cam is not supposed to fit in this new-or any small-block Mopar-without some serious modifications. Since we wanted a camshaft with lobes that look like they had no ramps (read: big), a roller was really the only logical choice for us, but what about this roller-cam stigma? We wanted to find out what cam would best suit our needs, and the best way to do that is to contact a cam manufacturer. We called the tech line at Comp Cams, gave them our specs, and then asked them to make two recommendations-one for a flat tappet design and one for a roller design. Lucky for us, the guys at Comp also let us know that they have just released (as of this writing) a new solid roller-lifter that they said would fit into a small-block Mopar (PN 8043-16). Since they told us they had the lifter issue covered, we had them tell us what camshaft we should use, and waited to hear their numbers.
What they suggested was a custom grind cam with .619 and .615-inch lift, and .247 and .280 degrees of duration at .050-inch lift. This cam was ground on a tight 106-degree LSA. Before you guys cry foul and say it's not streetable, we'll let you know when we get it put in the Valiant. Besides, that's what makes this one cool, remember? One last thing to remember when running a roller camshaft is that the factory cast-iron distributor/oil pump drive must be changed to a bronze unit (PN P3690874). Again, we got ours from Summit Racing.
Making sure that everything got the required oil, a Milodon oil pan (PN 30936) and a Melling high volume oil pump (PN M72HV) are used.
Top O' This Heap
To seal the cylinder bores, a set of Mopar Performance aluminum cylinder heads (PN P5153849) were used. These heads have a 63cc combustion chamber, 2.02/1.60-inch valves, and valvesprings rated for camshafts up to .575-inch lift. We would need to change the springs for our engine. Replacing the factory springs are a set of Comp's (PN 999-16) valvesprings, which also required some spring pocket-machining, and new retainers. The new springs are a larger 1.55-inch diameter. The retainers are PN 732-16 and use 10-degree valve locks (PN 613-16). For rocker gear, a set of Comp's Pro Magnum rocker arms (PN 1322-16) finish the heads. Since we decided that the engine's parts would simply be bolted on, we did not do any porting on these heads-not even a gasket match. We're sure that power will be down slightly because of this. Our combination of rotating-assembly parts in the block resulted in the pistons sticking .025-inch out of the cylinders, so we knew that an off-the-shelf gasket wasn't going to cut it. The main reason we surmised that reasoning was that if the average head gasket has a compressed thickness of .040-inch, and the pistons stick up .025-inch, that only leaves a margin of .015-inch of room between the cylinder-head face and the piston. We like to have a quench area in the cylinder of about .040-inch so we contacted Cometic Gaskets and ordered up a set of their MLS head gaskets with a compressed thickness of .070-inch (PN H1765070S). This gave us .045-inch of area, and we felt safe with this margin. The rest of the gaskets are also from Cometic (PN PRO1000T). The math showed us a final compression ratio of 11.94:1.
Now, at the beginning of this reliving-of-our-youth engine build, we mentioned over-carburetion, and nothing screams of over-carburetion like a tunnel ram with dual carburetors. In today's day and age, there really is no logical reason to run a tunnel ram on the street. We're not logical, and we're going to. Anyway, the setup we chose to run is Weiand's Hi-Ram intake (PN 1995), and two Holley 465-cfm vacuum secondary carburetors (PN 0-1848-1). Theoretically, that equals 930 cfm. Not overly overkill, but it'll do. We followed that up with the appropriate linkage and air cleaner assembly (PNs 4023 and 7221 respectively). We're quite certain that we can get more power with a good single-plane intake and single carburetor, but remember, this is an old school build.
Well, now it's assembled and ready to run-hopefully run. As of this writing, we're getting ready to load it up and hook it to the proverbial lie detector. Tune in later to see if we struck gold with our build, or crapped out.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (Blugolds.com) – With both teams looking for their first win of the season today, the UW-Eau Claire football team was able to come away with the win over UW-River Falls, defeating the Falcons 13-6 at Carson Park.
In the opening half, neither team could get much going. After 10 possessions, River Falls was the first to try to get points on the board but missed a 29-yard field goal with 2:38 left in the opening half.
The Blugolds then took the ball 80 yards and scored a touchdown with 22 seconds remaining as Clint Larsen (So.-Eau Claire, Wis./Memorial) ended the 12-play drive with a two yard run. A missed extra point left the score 6-0 in favor of Eau Claire at halftime.
The third quarter started with a long drive from the Blugolds but it ended with a missed field goal from 22 yards out. River Falls got the ball back but after 5:16, turned it back over to the Blugolds with just over a minute left in the quarter.
Eau Claire had the ball for five minutes after that but turned the ball over on downs and the Falcons scored on the following drive. They used 1:53 with seven plays, traveling 76 yards, to get to the end zone, and tied the game 6-6. A missed extra point left the score tied.
On the very next drive, the Blugolds were able to find the end zone once again, with Larsen ending the drive with a one yard run. This time the extra point was good and the Blugolds took a 13-6 lead, which they held to the end.
Larsen ended the game with 120 yards rushing on 28 carries while he also finished with three catches for 17 yards. Mark Munger (Jr.-Eau Claire, Wis./Memorial) went 20-for-29 passing with 176 yards while Alex Plaster (Sr.-Stevens Point, Wis./SPASH) led the team with four catches for 46 yards.
The Blugolds finished the game with 313 yards of offense (137 rushing, 176 yards passing) while the Falcons had 371 total yards (68 rushing, 303 passing).
On defense, Cody Taubman (So.-New Richmond, Wis.) led the Blugolds with eight tackles while he broke up two passes. Sean Graham (Sr.-Hales Corners, Wis./Whitnall) finished with one sack while the Blugolds combined for six tackles for loss.
Eau Claire is now 1-6 on the season and 1-3 in conference play while River Falls drops to 0-7 overall and 0-4 in the WIAC.
Next Saturday the Blugolds will be at UW-Stout for a conference game beginning at 1 p.m.

Though Emily (Diane Keaton) and Donald (Brendan Gleeson) live in the same idyllic London neighborhood of Hampstead, the worlds they inhabit could not be more different. She is an American widow occupying a posh apartment she can no longer afford and filling her time with charity work as she struggles to figure out a next step. He is a gruff Irish loner who lives off the land in a makeshift cabin and wants nothing more than to be left in peace. When his home is threatened by greedy real estate developers, Emily believes she has found her new cause—but gets more than she bargained for when unexpected romance blossoms. Based on an inspiring true story, Hampstead is a buoyant, sparklingly witty tale of two underdogs who took on the system and showed a nation that heart is where the home is. With Lesley Manville.

(AP) - The bankruptcy trial of the largest city in California to file for Chapter 9 protection will continue for another day with more witnesses testifying and attorneys making closing arguments.
Connie Cochran, a spokeswoman for the city of Stockton, said Thursday that the case will resume in a Sacramento courtroom on June 4.
Stockton is asking a judge to approve a plan that would reorganize more than $900 million in long-term debt.
The city has reached deals with all of its major creditors, except for Franklin Templeton Investments, which took Stockton to trial.
Franklin Templeton says it's being offered 1 cent on the dollar for a $35 million loan and wants U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Klein to reject Stockton's bankruptcy plan.

Balloons Are Booming (Jun, 1951)
Balloons Are Booming
Dream up a new inflatable toy and you'll also inflate your bankroll.
By John Noah
"WHY do so few people have new ideas for toy balloons?" That's the question that puzzles H. W. McConnell, president of one of America's largest toy-balloon companies.
Balloon sales are booming and retail outlets are begging for new types to market —but the fresh ideas don't seem to come. For want of amateur inventors, virtually every toy balloon that McConnell and many other balloon men produce must be devised by someone within the industry.
When it comes to suggestions for new balloons, almost any screwball design has a chance for consideration. Competition is viciously keen in this industry and few companies hesitate to "improve" upon a competitor's latest creation. As soon as a cheap adaptation of one of his inflated brain children appears, McConnell prefers to abandon the design in favor of something new. So he and his whole staff are kept feverishly busy originating balloons and balloon toys that must immediately capture the public fancy to give the company a profit before they are copied.
"A toy balloon isn't hard to dream up," McConnell insists. "You needn't be wise to the technicalities of balloon production. Merely sketch the balloon you have in mind and let our mechanics try and figure out a way to produce it. Just be careful," he adds, "that it isn't too detailed." McConnell's company is the Lee-Tex Rubber Products Corp. at 321 East Jackson Street, Los Angeles, Calif.
But, in case you feel inspired to make a realistic John L. Lewis balloon, forget it. Due to the whims of air pressure, inflating his bush eyebrows [Continued on page 98] would be difficult if not impossible. The same for Gable's ears. The best plan is to add some non-rubber detail, such as the cardboard feet on the toss-up balloon.
Although lifelike, figurine balloons, such as Woody Woodpecker and Funny Bunny, account for much of a balloon company's profits, a toy balloon need not be realistically contoured to become a best seller. Take the Roy Rogers balloon, for example.
After securing the right to produce a balloon featuring the well known screen cowboy and his horse Trigger, McConnell debated whether to make a figurine balloon or merely imprint an ordinary round one with the likeness of Rogers and Trigger. He decided on the latter and, despite its plainness, the balloon was an immediate hit. As Rogers gets a royalty, his yearly share of the profits buys plenty of oats for his nag.
The incorporation of a noisemaker in many a toy balloon has meant the difference between its success and failure. An animal balloon toy, in which McConnell had great faith, failed to sell despite its cuddly cuteness. He used practically every known means of promotion but the balloon continued to gather dust on dealers' shelves. As a final try he added a squawker—a noisemaker within a toy. Provided with a voice, the balloon became a sales sensation, selling itself whenever a shopper gave it an inquisitive squeeze.
Once a balloon has left the factory, McConnell does not lose interest in it. People who over or under-inflate balloons are his pet hate. He believes the beauty and novelty, to say nothing of the sales value, of a toy balloon are impaired by improper inflation. McConnell still fumes when recalling a Washington dealer who blew up balloon-toy Woody Woodpecker "until he actually looked pregnant."
Exploring new uses for toy balloons is both a hobby and a business with McConnell. His latest discovery: "There's nothing like 'a brightly colored balloon to divert a scared kid's attention from a barber's shears. No barbershop should be without a batch of balloons."
The odor of rubber has always been a barrier to the 100 per cent popularity of the toy balloon. Many people, otherwise fascinated by balloons, are allergic to their smell and will not touch them. McConnell hopes to overcome this bugaboo with a perfumed balloon that is now in the experimental stage. If this smelly idea turns out to be a rose he plans to seek the cooperation of leading perfumers.
"Imagine a Chanel No. 5 balloon!" he beams.

Irasburg farmer challenges state
copyright the Chronicle March 23, 2016
by Tena Starr
An Irasburg farmer has invited the Vermont Agency of Agriculture to prosecute him for violating the state's slaughtering rules.
His crime? He advertised half of a grass fed beef that had not been "properly" slaughtered for sale.
John Klar has been raising and selling organic beef and sheep for more than 15 years. Last summer, he received a surprise visit from Agency of Agriculture compliance investigator Eric Holgrem, who had seen a Craigslist ad that Mr. Klar had placed for beef.
"He didn't call; he just showed up," Mr. Klar said.
That's something else he objects to, but his main problem is with the regulations themselves, which he said make no sense.
Vermont's most recent version of the slaughter rules passed in 2013, and the House last week voted…To read the rest of this article, and all the Chronicle's stories, subscribe:

It is a time for change for the druids of Azeroth. Patch 3.1 is at last on the horizon, tantalizing us all with thoughts of new raid bosses and daily quests to entertain our hours of sloth. However, despite the lure of the new, this is a sad day in the forests and wilds. Phaelia of Resto4Life, the greatest of all druid bloggers, has decided to retire for the happiest of reasons. I'll let you read her big news in her own words here, but I will add my very public congratulations in this post.
A Tribute to Phaelia
Now that I sit down to try it, it is difficult to find words to express how profound Phaelia's influence has been on me and my blogging work. I found Resto4Life when I had just started to raid seriously in BC. I had been toying with the idea of starting a druid blog myself, and gradually, reading Phaelia's work helped me gain the confidence I needed to try writing. She exemplifies everything I love about the WoW community. Let me try, however inarticulately, to account for some of her contributions.
1. Phaelia showed us all that the blogosphere can be friendly. I know that I have experienced hateful and mean-spirited comments, both on my own posts and on others' work. Somehow, Phaelia presents the content on her site with such grace that civil discussions have always flourished on her pages (pun intended). It has to do with Phaelia herself, I think. Phaelia's tone exudes warmth and friendliness, and the druid community is a better place because of it. If new bloggers are looking for a style and tone to imitate, they should go to Resto4Life and start reading.
2. Phaelia helped us realize that we could be proud to be druids. In other places, I see more whining about class particularities than celebration of them. Through her wonderful artwork, both her own and the contributions from Andrige, Eggo, and other wonderful artists, druids have been able to represent themselves and witness themselves being represented in a positive way. I am personally going to buy a few more tree shirts. The one I had unfortunately got a big dribble of bleach on it the last time I cleaned. The artwork from Resto4Life is not fluffy content–in fact, it's what I'll miss most. I believe that symbols are important, and I don't think being a druid would have felt as special without the artwork to remind me of it.
3. Phaelia instilled in us all a belief in the WoW blogging community. Through Blog Azeroth and meta-blogging posts on her own site, she helped many would-be bloggers, including me, get a start. I'm not always chatty myself (kind of a solitary walnut), but Phaelia reached out over google chat when I had first started posting. It meant a lot to me early on that she liked my work. I think she's helped out very many druid bloggers and given us the confidence we needed to keep going. I think she realizes that the hardest thing to do, as a blogger, is put fingers to keys and write. Her site and the tools she gave us make that just a little bit easier.
And so, Phae, you will be much missed. I don't think anyone will ever fill your particular shoes–and on that topic, you should all go look at Keeva's delightful new comic. Please drop by from time to time as a reader and let us know how you and the little sprout are doing. This is an exciting time in your life!
As Pike said better than I could, we all know that our time as WoW bloggers is limited. I can see myself blogging–in some form, about something–for the rest of my life, but specific hobbies like WoW come and go. However, friendships and memories can stick with us. If the writing bug ever bites again, Phae, let us know about your new project. My experience tells me that truly talented writers like Phaelia always end up writing for publication, in some form or other.

April Auto Sales: AP Finally Notices That Ford Is Winning Share From GM and Chrysler
Friday, after the April vehicle sales figures rolled in, Associated Press reporters Kimberly S. Johnson and Dan Strumpf, in the opening sentence of a report carried at USA Today, showed that they finally noticed two things, one of which yours truly caught three months ago (NewsBusters; BizzyBlog), and the other which first became clear last month (NewsBusters; BizzyBlog).
The former point is that the American people are continuing to shun bailed-out car companies General Motors and now-bankrupt Chrysler. The latter one is that Ford's gain has been most the two bailed-out companies' loss.
Here is how the inconsistently-headlined ("Auto sales fall in April; Ford gains market share from Chrysler") AP report began (bolds are mine):
Detroit's Big Three is becoming Ford and the other two.
While its rivals stay afloat with billions in government aid, Ford grabbed a bigger slice of the American car market in April with record sales of its fuel-efficient Fusion. Those results pushed it past Toyota to retake its post as the nation's No. 2 car seller.
Even though Ford's monthly sales tumbled 32% from a year earlier, it captured 16% of the total market. Most of those gains came at the expense of General Motors and Chrysler, which unlike Ford are dependent on federal help.
The press, however, is missing or avoiding the irony that the two companies the government is bailing out are not only the ones that have the "worst" mix (from the so-called "green" point of view) of car vs. light truck sales, but are also the two which have their mixes going most decidedly in the "wrong" direction among the six largest car companies (source spreadsheet pictured here obtained from MotorIntelligence.com):
Yes, you're reading the above right. Chrysler is the eighth-largest car seller in the US, moving a pathetic 15,000-plus cars in April, fewer than both Hyundai and Kia.
Given enough government bailout money and enough engineering expertise from Fiat, it's conceivable that Chrysler and even GM could become mostly manufacturers of cars — perhaps even at costs that might lead to profits in a future that seems far, far away.
But the two companies are fighting one other "little" problem: Enough of the American people to get noticed are abandoning them. That abandonment has essentially grown in sync with the ever-deepening level of government involvement and the level of general knowledge about that involvement. If enough of the public ever understands the gist of what President Obama and his car czars attempted to impose, complete with alleged threats and intimidation, on Chrysler's secured lenders before bankruptcy, and will now attempt to impose during bankruptcy proceedings, the shunning may accelerate further.

class Class1 implements Interface1 { }
class Class2 implements Interface3 { }
class Class3 extends Class2{ }
Class1 a = new Class1(); Class2 b = new Class2(); Class3 c = new Class3();
Which of the following expressions is correct?
1. Class1 instanceof Interface2
2. Class2 instanceof Interface3
3. Class2 instanceof Interface2
