Writer Unboxed » A 'Logic Model' for Author Success - 0 views
shared by John Lemke on 14 Apr 14 - No Cached
in this age of the "writer as an entrepreneur" responsible for a growing share of the work required to not only create but also sell a book, adding management skills to our repertoire of abilities is not at all a bad idea.
as launch time approaches, authors get overwhelmed by thinking that they have to do "everything:" Twitter, Facebook, Goodreads, ad campaigns, bookstore talks, conference panels, media articles, email newsletters, book clubs…you name it.
what our goals are beyond sales
- ...2 more annotations...
Based on our mission and our definition of success, we can then work out a manageable set of steps to take in line with our specific interests and goals. We feel more in control and less anxious about having to "do it all."
A more viable definition of success does have a quantitative element, but it doesn't necessarily mean "number of copies sold or dollars earned." It can mean other measurable outcomes such as landing a teaching job or a column in a respected publication.

Parents Corner
Dear Parents A warm Welcome to you all. The first lessons that a child learns are from their parents. Home is where their story begins. It is there where they learn the lessons of love and respect. You, as parents are their role models. They begin by loving you and then as they grow older, they develop skills that will help them through life into adulthood.
Keeping this in mind, we have designed a parent-interaction program. We invite parents and their families to be a part of Nursery projects, nursery shows, celebrations, seminars and activities. Your involvement not only encourages the child but also reinforces good and productive behavior in them. We welcome activities involving parents' interaction and volunteering. Contributing their knowledge and talents are always encouraged at our nursery. We have an 'Open-door Policy' that welcomes interaction between parents and staff at any time. Along with answering queries, parents are informed about how they can develop their child's learning skills at these sessions. Some of the features of the Parent-Interaction Program include:
• Daily anecdotal observation records and report agendas are sent to keep you up to date
• Monthly newsletters
• "Mommy & Me" and "My Family & Me" programs
• Arranging special occasions for parents to visit the classrooms
• Providing workshops to guide you on how you can help
• Online resources included on our website and social media
• Blogs and articles about parenting, child care and health
Our Playschool believes in having a strong bond with parents that helps all of us in effectively contributing to children's growth. An active participation by the parents always proves to be of greater advantage and we particularly encourage parents to engage and interact with children and our team as much as possible. At Gurusthanam, we leave no stone unturned in your child's enriching and engaging learning experience.

Father's Day: Advice For Rebuilding Broken Relationships
Father's Day is approaching and my wife and I will be traveling to see my parents. I'm looking forward to spending time with my mother but don't want to see my father. He was an alcoholic who often yelled and sometimes smacked us around. My father's never been abusive to our kids and my wife and mother think it's important they see their grandfather.
Although his drinking has lessened since he was diagnosed with liver disease, he's never acknowledged he was physically abusive and our family doesn't discuss it. I don't want to feel hate or be angry with my father anymore, even though a part of me still is. How do I even begin to have a different relationship with him?
If you want a different relationship with your father it begins with defining your expectations, then initiating a conversation with him.
What to Expect When It's Unexpected
When exploring your expectations, think about what outcome you want to achieve. Regular phone calls? Weekly text or email exchanges? Monthly in person visits? Keep in mind you can't control or change your father's responses or behavior – that's up to him. You can only control what you're willing to accept.
Understandably, the need for control can be paramount for many adults of alcoholic parents. Children quickly learn if things are out of control, their home can become dangerous. This can lead to an if-this-then-that lifestyle.
For example, a child might think: "If my father comes home drunk he's going to be very upset and maybe even get violent if he sees I haven't cleaned my room; I better clean it before he comes home."
As a child, you may then believe you have some control over your father's behavior. This can lead to feelings of undue responsibility and guilt when the alcoholic parent is hurt or angry. It can also result in resentment and anger. Hate seems like such a bad thing to say out loud or even feel, but understand it's normal to feel anger towards an abusive parent.
"The Talk"
Decide whether you want to have a conversation in-person or over the phone. Writing down your feelings or a few important points can help. That way, if you start to feel overwhelmed, anxious or angry there's a game plan.
If you feel the anger is consuming you take a step back and ask yourself:
- Is my father still hurting me?
- If so, how can I be safe?
- And if not, what function does holding on to the anger serve?
It might also help to write down what boundaries you want to develop to protect you and your family if your father becomes abusive in the future.
Starting the conversation is the one thing your family has avoided your entire life. However, it is generally the most beneficial way to begin a new relationship.

Four in 10 children not going to dentist, NHS figures show
More than 40% of children in England did not see a dentist last year, NHS statistics show - a figure the British Dental Association says is embarrassing.
The BDA said regular dental check-ups were the key to preventing tooth decay in children and urged the government to invest in educating the public.
Tooth decay remains the most common reason young children go to hospital.
Guidelines recommend children see a dentist at least once a year.
The statistics from NHS Digital show that 6.7m children went for a free dental check-up in the year to June - equivalent to 57.9% of all under-18s in England.
A regional breakdown of the figures shows that attendance in the north of England was highest, with 62% of children seeing a dentist there, but in London the figure was just 48%.
Apart from examinations, children were most likely to receive a fluoride varnish treatment - which is painted on to the teeth to strengthen the enamel, making it more resistant to decay.
Last year, these treatments went up by 20% compared with the year before.
Although these figures suggest a small dip in children having teeth extracted in dental practices, there are indications that tooth extractions due to decay continue to be the top reason children aged five to nine are admitted to hospital.
Figures from 2014-15 show an almost 10% rise in children needing tooth extractions from those recorded in 2011-12.
Henrik Overgaard-Nielsen, chair of general dental practice at the British Dental Association, said: "It's clear we have a problem when one in three children are missing out on free dental treatment.
"NHS dentistry has been left to fend for itself, without investment, a strategy, or any attempt at public education.
"These numbers are a national embarrassment, and will not budge until ministers change tack."
He added: "We need a concerted effort to get parents, health professionals and government on the same page."

Repair Ball Bearing Drawer Slides
Drawer slides – ball-bearing drawer slides are durable and reliable. Some cycles tested. This means that they are opened and closed by robot arms hundreds of times. This ensures that they are robust enough to endure regular use. Occasionally, a screw that holds one of the runner arms in place come loose, so the arm to splay. This will cause the drawer to run less smoothly or cane.
Repair ball bearing drawer slides, Open the drawer. Remove the contents. Screw the runner arms. Black and Decker suggest using an electric screwdriver, but a manual screwdriver is sufficient. Remove the tray from the chassis. Rotate the tray on its side. Fill the screw hole with super petrol, quick wood filler. Use wood filler that can be screwed into the dry state. Continue the same way for all other enlarged screw holes. Let wood filler to dry, according to specific instructions.
Repair ball bearing drawer slides, Red rill the hole at the same place by means of a little less than the screw drill bit needs. This will ensure that the screw goes into tight. Do the same for all other refilled holes. Screw runner arms back to the sides of the tray. Place the drawer in the closet. Test running action. Returns drawer contents of the drawer. Retest.


text: rover1949 9 Posted November 19, 2017 I lived near Ecclesfield in the 60s and on quiet evenings we could hear a pack of dogs yelping nearby. Some said it was the local foxhounds, others said it was Beagles, but we never saw any sign of them out and about. Some years later, I was on the top of Kinder Scout when I heard a pack of dogs approaching and the sound of a hunting horn. A man appeared dressed in hunting outfit but with a green coat. I have been told that green indicates a Beagler? Can anyone help here? Do beagles actually hunt for anything specific? Why on Kinder Scout? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Brame, Suspected of Owning; an II-Mcit Still, Badly Wounded by Posse From Marshal MUUkan's Office. A iioa.se of revenue oftlcerB under U. 8. Marshal Millikan came mighty near putting; an end to the earthly career of John Brame, a well kuown youngman living a few milee northeast of the city, laat Wednesday night. Brame and a man named George Vickere were be-lieved to be the owners of a blockade still that had been seized a few days previous and the officers were on the lookout for them Wednesday night, one posse being statioued near the county home and another on Summit avenue near the residences of Mr. Ceasar Cone and Mr. Spencer Black-burn. That night Brame and Vickera ventured toward the city, and when they were near enough the electric light to reveal their identity theoftlcers rushed from the roadside and notified ttiem that they were under arrest. Vickera submitted calmly, but Brame leaped from the buggy and broke for the woods. Several shots were fired at the retreating fiugre, and according to the officers Brame returned the fire, but as none of the shots apparently took effect the officers soou gave up the search and came on to town with Vick-era, satisfied that half a haul was bet-ter than none at all. Later in the night the Internal Revenue Depart-ment at Washington authorized a re-ward of $100 for Brame. Thursday morning Marshal Millikan was surprised to learn that Brame was in St. Leo's hospital, only a short dis-tance from the place the shooting of the uight before occurred. It devel-oped that he had been shot iu the breast during the fusillade, one of his lungs being punctured, but despite his injuries he wan able to make his way to a negro cabin nearby, where a phy-sician was called to atteud him. The physician saw at once that the wound was serious and had the man removed to the hospital, where he has since re-mained iu a critical condition. Appar-ently the chances are against his re-covery. A very great diflerence of opiuion exists as to Brame'sreal character. The officeie have long regarded him as a desperate character who almost openly defied the revenue laws. Last year he waB fined in Superior court for retail-ing and of late it is surmised that he was selling at least a hundred dollars' worth of whiskey every week at his home. The reveuue meu say there was no question as to bis having an interest in the illicit still referred to. On the other hand Brame's friends say he is a quiet, peaceable hardworkiug man whose word is as good asgold.eveu though he had had some trouble months ago by reason of having sold some whiskey. Home of his friends, believing that he was not really bad at heart, had urged iiim repeatedly to quit fooling with blockade whiskey, as they realized that .- cr or later it would get him iuto serious trouble, which they hoped to see him avoid. Another Shooting: Aftray Sunday. For four weeks a Suuday has not passed without a shooting aflray of some sort iu or near town. "Mukdeu," a negro settlement just east of White Oak, furnished the last occurrence of this kind. Sunday morning George Troxler, a Lexington negro who has beeu em-ployed as a laborer at White Oak for a short time, went to the barber shop of Bob Potter and made himself obnox-ious to Bob and his colored patrons by maudlin yelling and dancing, and finally, after having Ignored several re-quests to leave the place, was knocked down aud thrown out bodily. This was more than be could stand for, in his druuken diguity, and he went ofl to look for a gun. Shortly afterward he returned with a double-barrel shot-gun aud pulled down on Potter at short range. The first load peppered Bob's legs and the second landed iu his breast and shoulders. Troxler then took to the woods and has not been seen since. Potter was carried to St. Leo's hospital, where over a hundred punctures were found in his skin. His wounds are not dangerous, however. THE BIGGEST FAIR ON RECORD. ' i;ORGE M. PATTON ATTORNEY AT LAW *' ■" n .square. - Greensboro. N. C. TH0S. J. SHAW ATTORNEY AT LAW W«CE: 108 H. Elm St., Greensboro, B. C. Local Furniture Company's Bookkeeper la a Fair Way to Acquire the Whole Stock When His Game Was Blocked. A young man named W. H. Marse, bookkeeper for the Guilford Furniture Company, which succeeded Mr. N. J. McDuffie iu business, is in jail in de-fault of a $200 bond for larceny and a $25 bond for carrying concealed weap-ons. The case as aired In police court Saturday shows one of the boldest tbetts ever committed in Greensboro. Marse recently rented a room iu a house iu South Greensboro aud was rapidly tilling it with stock from the store where he was employed—bed-steads, chairs, trunks, valises, rugs, baby carriages,etc.—and might iu time have put his employers out of business had he been permitted to continue car-rying things ofl. His plan was to send something to the room every time he bad an opportunity. Fre-quently he would be left in charge of the store at noou, aud he would then pick up a street dray aud send a load to his own private store. Things went on swimmingly uulil his employers tumbled to bis game, and Friday night he was arre.-ted in the act of leaviug for parts unknown, it having reached his ears that the game was ended. When arrested he bad a pistol on his person, which in itself constituted a criminal charge. When'confronted by Chief Neelley and two or three other officers be strenuously denied having done auy wrong whatever, but he soou discovered that the officers were not to be blufled by any talk like that, and finally he made a full confession. He said that he had planned to sell the goods in a lump to some one out of town aud have them taken away quietly. Marse is married and has a family cousisting of a wife aud two children, one of tbem but a few weeks old. He came here from South Carolina aud worked a while for the Proximity Store Company before securing a position with the furniture company. He is apparently much distressed over the predicament he finds himself in, par-ticularly on accouut of bis family, but he will not be apt to escape punish-ment for his cool and deliberate thiev-ery- Suit to Test Validity of Bonds. Mr. A. M. Scales, as attorney for Mr. H. W. Wharton, has instituted suit iu Guilford Superior court against the city of Greensboro to test the validity of the | two recent bond elections. It will be remembered that during March there was au election authori/.iug the is-suance of bends, the money to be used iu providing additional school facili-ties. Last week there was another bond election authorizing the issuance of bonds to the amount of $125,000, the proceeds from the sale to be used in payiug ofl the tloatiog indebtedness of the city. It seems that some question has arisen as to the validity of these bonds, luasmuch as there is a statute specify-ing that a town cannot create a debt in excess of ten per cent, of its assessed taxable property. The total amount of Greeusboro's indebtedness, including the recent bond elections, amounts to about $855,000, while the assessed val-uation of the property of the city is $7,700,000. The action is a friendly suit for the purpose of removing obstacles in the was of the sale of the city's bonds. It is believed that it will result favorably to the city and that the bonds can then be disposed of promptly to good advantage. MR. BRYAN'S VISIT. Annual Meeting: Held. The stockholders of the Greensboro Wood Fibre Plaster Company held their annual meeting Monday in the office of the secretary aud treasurer, Mr. E. G. West, In the McAdoo build-ing. The old board of directors were re-elected as follows: W. C. Bain, J. N. Longest, E. D. Tessier, J. R. McCiaui-roch aud E. G. West. After the stock-holders' meeting adjourned, the direc-tors met and re-elected all the officers as follows: President, W. C. Bain; vice-president, J. R. McClamroch; sec-retary and treasurer, E. G. West. Dray Load of Liquor Captured. Officers Causey and McCuistou pounced on a dray load of liquor Satur- I day near 'Five Points," and upset the calculation, of numerous thirsty souls. The dray was driven by a negro named John Coiemau, who Insisted that the liquor belonged to Bob Causey, another colored man living out that way, but as he bad passed Causey's home with-out delivering it the officers took the whole outfit iu charge, landing Cole-man in the calaboose. Monday he was sent on to court for retailing, and iu default of bond wentto jail. Causey appeared at the hearing and claimed a portion of the contraband liquor but iustead of securing it be captured a ten-dollar line for vagrancy. Had not a friend stood for the fine he would have beeu hustled ofl to the roads. Exhibit Halls, stock Pens and Poultry Building- Filled to Overflowing— An Extensive Midway. Beyond question the Central Caro-lina Fair Association's eighth annual fair will surpass all previous events if the conditions prevailing on the open-ing day are an indication of results. Every foot of space in the exhibit halls and on the grounds is filled to over-flowing. Particularly is true iu the main building, the live stock aud poul-try departments and in the outdoor ex-hibits of farm machinery, etc. The second floor of the main building is a bower of beauty, the booths there dis-playing a splendor heretofore unat-tempted. So great was the demand for space that several of the booths are shared by two exhibitors. On the lower floor are a number of Immense exhibits, admirably arranged. There is a much greater number of entries iu the poultry department than ever be-fore, aud fanciers will find a feast for their eyes in the big buildiug set apart for this exhibit. The additional space provided in this aud other departments since the last fair is inadequate to the demands this year. The midway attractions, filliug all the space between the main building aud the grand stand, are of a higher class than usual, and if there are any really objectionable features there they are not yet in evideuce. Good racing, the best in North Caro-lina beyond question, will be seen each day, in addition to many free attrac-tions. Thirty or more riders will take part in the tournament Friday— Greensboro day. The marshal's ball will lake place at the BeobOW assembly hall tomorrow night. It is expected that over one huudred couples will participate. Fonvllle Acquitted of Fraud. Percy Fouville, indicted for aiding aud abetting Franc Jones in defraud-ing the Charlotte National Bank of mauy thousands of dollars by reason of bis association with Jones in the cotton '■'.-■ 'ness was placed ou trial in the Federal court Friday. Fouville was defended by au imposing array of counsel. Col. A. A. Wiley, K. T. Good-wyn and Warren 8. Bose, of Mont-gomery, Ala; W.P. Bynum, of Greens-boro, aud T. C. Guthrie and J. A. Mc- Kae, of Charlotte. District Attorney A. E. Hoi ton appeared for the govern-ment. Jury No. 2 was called iu the case but most of the jurors were ex-cused, some for sickness aud some by objection. From a venire the following were empaneled: Joe H. Thompson, James Y. Merritt, W. K. Norman, T. W. Davis, L. A. Craw-ford, Lafayette Cooper, Alexander Martin, S. A. Swain, E. B. Atkins, W. E. Phipps, J. A. Greene aud W. G. Balsley. Kvidence for the prosecution was submitted until Mouday morning and it was iuteuted that Jones, the star wituess, should be heard in conclusion, but au •injection ottered by Judge By-uum prevented his being beaid, and the case ended rather abruptly, so far as the taking of evidence was concern-ed. Judge Bynum argued that Jones' testimony was incompetent, inasmuch as he had beeu convicted of a crime rounded ou fraud, deceit and false-hood. Judge Boyd held that the rule of testimony applying iu such cases in state courts did not hold in the Federal court, aud excluded Jones' testimony, whereupon the prosecution rested. Ar-guments of counsel lasted until noon yesterday, and the case was given to the jury an hour later. Iu a very few hours a verdict of not guilty was re turned. Jones spent several days here in the care of a warden of the Atlanta prisou. Ho Court Next Week. The October term of Guilford Su-perior court, scheduled to begin next Mouday, is postponed indefinitely by reason of the continued illness ofJudge W. B. Council. Last Friday county attorney John N. Wilson received a communication from Hickory stating that Judge Council would perhaps not be able to resume his seat on the bench for several weeks and it would be im-possible for him to come here next week. The effort to secure another presiding judge for the term having proved unavailing there is nothing left to do but abandon the term. All the cases docketed are continued. Reception Committee's Plans Matured at a Meeting- Monday night. The reception committee appointed to receive Hon. William Jennings Bryan this morning held a meeting Monday night and perfected its plans for the day. Composing this commit-tee ate John L. King, A. L. Brooks, Col. J. T. Morehead, Mayor L. J. Brandt, Judge James E. Boyd, Judge B. M. Douglas, Judge Spencer B. Adams, Judge W. P. Bynum, Col. Al Fairbrotber, G. 8. Bradshaw, Major C. M. Stedman and C. M. Vanstory. Mr. Bryan will reach the city on a special train this morning at 10 30 o'clock, eoming from Fayetteviile. He will be met by the reception committee aud driven at once to the fair ground, where he will speak from a large plat-form that has been erected in front of the grand stand. Following hie speech Mr. Bryan, Governor Glenn and the reception committee will be entertained at the home of Hon. A. L. Brooks. Later he will visit the State Normal and Indut-trial College, at the earnest solicitation of the faculty and students. In the evening Mr. Bryan will be in charge of the committee which has ar-ranged an elaborate banquet in his honor. From 7 o'clock to 7.44 he will hold a public reception at the Mer-chants' and Manufacturers' Club. The banquet, which will be in the nature of a good old time Southern supper, will be held iu Neese's hall, on East Wash-ington street. Mr. Bryan will he the principal speaker there, but several gentlemen prominent in state and na-tional aflairs will respond to toasts. Infant Drowns In Bucket of Water. Mr. aud Mrs. Charles E. Starr, who live a couple of miles southeast of McLsansville, lost a promising tbirteeu-moutbs- o!d sou last Wednesday uuder peculiarly distressiug circumstances. Mrs. Starr, whese health is not good, went to her room shortly after dinner to take a brief rest, leaving the babe aud his five-year-old sister playing about the kitchen. Just at that time Mr. Starr drove by with bis wagon, aud the little girl rau out to take a short ride. On her return she found the babe, which was just able to climb up to a chair or table, hanging head-foremost in a lard tub half filled with water. She had the presence of mind to pull the babe from the water before she summoued her mother, but the child was dead, having been strangled. The funeral was held Thursday at Mt. Hope church. Mr. and Mrs. Starr have much sympathy in their bereavement. They are grateful for tbeloviug consid-eration of their neighbors aud friends in their time of sorrow. am BUSY BUSINESS MEN Find in such a bank as this the many helps, both great and small, which contribute so largely to-wards the safe, sure and convenient conduct of a modern business house.

Helpless Old Woman Left Alone in Her Home Burned to Death by Fire of Unknown Origin. Lizzie Jeter, an infirm colored wo-man said to be over a hundred years old, was burned to death Saturday eveuing about 6.30 o'clock in her home just beyoud Gieene Hill cemetery. She lived with her granddaughter, Janie McCoy, in a cottage belonging to Dr. L. W. Crawford, aud was alone Saturday evening when the boute be-gan to bum, the granddaughter having built a fire on the hearth just before starting up town to market. The lire was so remote from the cen-ter of town that the flames were beyond control when the firemen reached the scene. Neighbors first to arrive were horrified at the sight of the old wo-man's body being slowly consumed by the flames, but they were powerless to render any aid whatever, as blazing timbers were falling all about her. The firemen had to rely solely on the chem-ical engine, as no hydrants were near, and the fire virtually had to burn itself out. In the ruins were fouud only fragments of the womau's body. It was a distressiug scene, heightened in its intensity by the shrieks aud dem-onstrations of the colored people gath-ered about. A cow that had been chained near the house had considerable hair burned from her back before she was discovered and released. gSEEEEBSSEEB Q ^32<3353S333Ss A Young Man \ Figuring: on Marriage Can figure with greater confi-dence in the future, and with greater degree of security aud certainty, if he has a snug sum .of money in the bank.

The main research activity of the Quantum Gases Theory group led by Prof. G. C. Strinati concerns the physics of ultracold atomic Fermi gases. These systems have emerged in the last few years as prototypes for studying many-body effects throughout the BCS-BEC crossover. Here, the mutual effective fermionic attraction can be varied essentially at will by spanning a Fano-Feshbach resonance via an applied magnetic field. This ability enables the system to pass from the weak-coupling (BCS) situation with largely overlapping Cooper pairs, to the strong-coupling (BEC) limit where composite bosons form and condense. The importance of this study stems also from the fact that advances in the fundamental knowledge, obtained from the study of the BCS-BEC crossover with ultracold Fermi gases, might also have implications for other physical systems (notably, high-Tc superconductors and nuclear matter).
The main theoretical concern of the BCS-BEC crossover is the evolution of the physical properties of a system of interacting fermions when passing from weak to strong attraction, whereby the evolution has to be described within the framework of a single fermionic theory. For weak attraction and sufficiently low temperatures, the system enters the superfluid phase which is well described by the standard (BCS) theory of superconductivity. In this limit, the temperatures of formation and condensation of the Cooper pairs coincide. For strong attraction, tightly-bound composite bosons instead form and condense at sufficiently low temperature (BEC), in such a way that the condensation temperature can be much lower than the formation temperature.
The theoretical approach of the Camerino group is based on the use of a many-body Hamiltonian for two fermionic species mutually interacting via a contact potential. The use of a single-channel Hamiltonian for the BCS-BEC crossover with ultracold atoms can be actually justified from first principles both for 6Li and 40K. The single-channel Hamiltonian for fermions interacting via a contact potential offers definite advantages, due to some simplifying features in the many-body approach occurring with this model.
The Camerino group has made several contributions to the physics of the BCS-BEC crossover over the past several years, based on a judicious use of many-body diagramatic techniques at finite temperature. These contributions are summarized in the list of publications reported below.
Several other topics are currently under investigation by the Camerino group, which include:
The Josephson effect in the BCS-BEC crossover;
Pairing effects in two-dimensional systems;
Pairing in Bose-Fermi mixtures;
The effects of disorder on the BCS-BEC crossover;
Superfluidity in bilayer systems;
Multiband superconductors;
The vortices in the BCS-BEC crossover.
A movie showing the self-assembling of a vortex lattice in a Fermi gas under rotation, as obtained through the numerical solution of the LPDA equation recently introduced by our group, is available here.

Weekly quickTIP
Administer the ADUC through the command line tools. First up: DSADD
Tired of the ADUC -- the Active Directory Users & Computers -- with
all its mouse-moving and clicky-clicky? Among others, Windows Server 2003
adds four native tools that make the administration of "The A-Duck"
a whole lot more command-line friendly. The first in our series, DSADD
allows for the generation of Active Directory objects. Need to create
a new global group called "Sales" in the Groups OU for the FirstClassCorp.com
domain? Just enter:
dsadd group "cn=Sales,ou=Groups,dc=FirstClassCorp,dc=com"
-secgrp yes -scope g
Note that any time we have spaces in the distinguished name for an object,
we have to encapsulate it with quotes. OU's are done similarly. Let's
create a new OU for those pesky sales people:
dsadd ou "ou=Sales People,dc=FirstClassCorp,dc=com"
Now, we'll create a new user account for the new sales guy, John Brown,
in our new Sales OU, give him a new initial password and require him to
change it the first time he logs in:
dsadd user "cn=John Brown,ou=Sales People,dc=FirstClassCorp,dc=com"
-samid jbrown -fn John -ln Brown -display "John Brown" -pwd
N@wPassw8rd -mustchpwd yes
There's plenty more object-creating ability using DSADD. Just do a DSADD
/? at the command prompt to find out more. We'll cover other tools
next time.
Remember that this column is all about helping you! If you have
a question or a great tip or trick to share, drop me a line at email@example.com.
We'll publish the best tips and the most interesting questions in future
columns. And some of you will earn a Redmond T-shirt in the process.

Denver Colorado Cremation
We are grateful to serve families of the deceased with cremation in Denver Colorado.
Learn more about Denver
Denver is the most populous municipality of Colorado as well as the state Capital. There is no city more populous within 500 miles of Denver. It has been named the Queen City of both the West and the Plains due to its importance in agriculture and U.S. News and World Report even named Denver the best place to live in the U.S. back in 2016.
The first settlers in the area that would eventually become Denver came from Lawrence, Kansas during the Pike's Peak Gold Rush in the summer of 1858. This group established the mining town, Montana City, near the South Platte River. However, as the gold rush faded, so too did the settlement. The citizens moved to Auraria, a town that is more central to Denver's current location, and St. Charles City.
General William Larimer and Captain Jonathon Cox claimed the land across the creek from Auraria and named their townsite Denver City in November of 1858. They chose this name to gain favor with a local politician, Kansas Territorial Governor James W. Denver. Ironically, Denver had already resigned from office at this time. So, to secure the town another way, the city donated fifty-three lots to the Leavenworth's and Pike Peak Express to area's first overland wagon route to themselves. This trail cut the previous travel time from twelve days to six and carried people, mail, and anything else that needed to go.
This portion of the Kansas Territory became the Colorado Territory on February 28, 1861. Denver City was incorporated as an official city on November 7 of the same year. Then, the state of Colorado was admitted to the Union on August 1, 1876.
Denver Today
Today, Denver is counted as 19th on the list of most populous cities in the United States. In 2017, the city had a population of 704,621, a 17.41% population increase since 2010.
The city has many popular sports teams across a spread of sports. The Denver Broncos are in the National Football League and have sold out every single home game. The Colorado Rockies are the local team for the NBA. The Colorado Avalanche is a hockey team within the National Hockey League. In their time in Denver, they have won the Stanley Cup twice. Denver's basketball team is the Denver Nuggets, and the soccer team is the Colorado Rapids.
Denver also has an active music scene, a welcoming LGBT community, and a very active, outdoor-oriented culture.
Life and Living
Birth Rates
There were 66,581 live births in Colorado in 2017. 26.5% of these births were the result of cesarean sections, or c-sections. 8.8% of the babies were born preterm. The infant mortality rate of the state, found by calculating the number of deaths per 1,000 live births, is 4.5%. This is lower than the national average.
Death Rates
Colorado's leading cause of death is cancer, as it caused 7,829 deaths in 2017. Heart Disease follows closely after as it caused 7,060 in the same year. The third leading cause had far fewer fatalities at only 3,037 in 2017, and Chronic Lower Respiratory Diseases even fewer at 2,604. Stroke, Alzheimer's disease, suicide, Diabetes, Chronic Liver disease and Cirrhosis, and the flu or pneumonia round out the top ten causes of death in the state of Colorado in 2017.
Mortality Data
In 2017, drug overdoses accounted for 17.6% of Colorado deaths, or 1,015 lives. Firearms accounted for 13.4%, or 779. Homicide accounted for 3.2%, or 261 deaths.
The city of Denver has 13 hospitals within the city. Some of these are:
- Colorado Acute Long Term Hospital
- Kindred Hospital – Denver
- Eating Recovery Center Behavioral Health
- Denver Health Medical Center
- Rose Medical Center
- Saint Joseph Hospital

Denver's location has always played a significant role in its economy. As the largest city in such a large radius (approximately 500 miles), it is a natural base for storage, distribution, and processing of goods. It plays this role for the western, southwestern, and mountain states. Furthermore, Denver is nearly equidistant from St. Louis, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, making it the ideal shipping hub between them.
The Denver area is primarily served by the Denver International Airport, or DIA. Skytrax named DIA the second-best regional airport in the United States, and the fourth-best regional airport in the world. Out of all airports–not just regional–it was named twenty-eighth in the world by Skytrax.
The region also has established bus and rail systems run by the Regional Transportation District. The combined Denver and Boulder metropolitan area includes eight counties which include 38 municipal jurisdictions. As a whole, within these boundaries are 10,000 bus stops that are traversed by 1,000 buses. There are forty-four rail stations which are traveled by nine rail lines. Seven of these are light rail lines, and two are commuter (the A-Line and B-Line).
Furthermore, Denver is a very walkable city. In 2011, the city was ranked the sixteenth out of fifty most walkable cities by Walk Score, and improvements have continued to be made to up this score.
Denver in Pop Culture
Denver has been the setting for many shows and movies. Here are a few:
- Last Man Standing
- Dynasty
- Emergency Vets
- E-Vet Interns
- Good Luck Charlie
There are also a several celebrities and bands that have come from Denver:
- Tim Allen
- Don Cheadle
- John Carroll Lynch
- Michael J. Anderson
- Anna Sophia Robb
- The Fray
- Lumineers
Things to Do
No matter your interests, you can find something to do in Denver. There are beautiful Botanic Gardens or the 16th Street Mall if you like a casual afternoon stroll. If you like art, you can go on a graffiti tour or visit the Clyfford Still Museum for some abstract expressionism. Maybe you're more of a get-up-and-go kind of person. There's always some kind of hiking, biking, tubing, rafting, or kayaking tour happening in the area. Check into those. You won't be disappointed. Check out the local breweries or find a concert at the Red Rocks Amphitheater for a unique musical experience. You can satisfy any of your interests here in Denver.
A Great Place
The Cremation Society of Colorado is proud to serve Denver and the surrounding areas and to help you find comfort during a challenging season.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) - Internet entrepreneur Brad Greenspan said late Friday Dow Jones & Co. dj shareholders could realize "significant stock price appreciation" by implementing a new strategy proposed by his Journal Investment Group. In an open letter to Dow Jones shareholders, Greenspan said he would leave the print publications of Dow Jones intact while "creating additional earnings streams through digital media initiatives that can produce a stock price above $100 a share." Greenspan also suggests that the company form a Dow Jones financial news channel, which he estimates could generate $456 million in annual revenue. "The time has come for Dow Jones to break out of its slumber and extend its dominance into the lucrative arena of digital media," the letter said. News Corp. NWS, -0.86% is seeking to acquire Dow Jones for $5 billion. Dow Jones is the publisher of The Wall Street Journal, Dow Jones Newswires and MarketWatch.

Hey, I'm Etemi,
I was born in Budapest and I moved to London in my early twenties. I bought my first sewing machine as a Christmas present to myself, and once I learned how to make a cushion cover there was no going back.
The first garment I ever made was a fully lined backless dress, which looked perfectly fine, but I am still amazed how it did not fall apart while wearing it… Since then, in the past 10 years, I have taken several dressmaking and pattern cutting classes, and I have been sharing my makes on my blog, The Secret Costumier, in the last 5 years.

Cypress, a conifer, is easy to grow in containers. In fact, those cute little Christmas trees that you can pick up at the supermarket during the holidays are sometimes small cypress trees. While cypress trees can grow quite large when planted in the ground, planting cypress in a pot will limit its growth.
Grow your potted cypress tree in well draining, sandy/loamy soil. To amend soil, use peat, up to a 50 percent mixture. Place the tree in an area that receives morning sun and light shade in the afternoon.
Water your potted cypress tree deeply, and keep the soil moist. A good rule of thumb is to feel the soil. When it is dry to within one inch of the top of the soil, it is time to water. If your potted cypress is growing outdoors, water only in the morning, as an evening watering will cause the roots to get too cold.
Prune your potted cypress tree carefully. Different varieties of cypress have different pruning needs. Generally, don't cut into any leafless areas of a branch and trim branches to their point of origin.
Generally pest and disease resistant, cypress trees are subject to canker, a disease cause by a fungus. Treatment involves removing any affected twigs and branches.

To my immense satisfaction, I have discovered the town I intend to call home once my projected whirlwind of post-college vegan activism subsides: Woodstock, NY. Rife with vegan options in every eatery, hole-in-the-wall boutiques boasting handcrafted goods, open-air flea markets, a superb farm sanctuary, and tie-dye-clad hippies constantly reminiscing about the 60's, Woodstock harbors more quaint charm than a red checkered tablecloth. My mother and I ventured to the town on a whim during her two-day visit to Vassar last weekend, unaware that our whim would transform into both my newfound fierce adoration of Woodstock, and a day of delectable vegan eats.
In search of a high-quality vegan restaurant in Upstate to escape the rather limited dining options in Poughkeepsie, I first caught wind of Garden Cafe on the Green via the Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary website's restaurant suggestion page. Imbibing the vegan philosophy directly into their mission statement ("we do not use animal products or any other products that cause pain and suffering"), the folks at Garden Cafe act as proud activists, ardent supporters of the Sanctuary, and immensely talented chefs.
Directly to the right of the Garden Cafe's bright and cozy indoor dining room, the verdant garden offers outdoor seating among copious flowers and widely smiling patrons, both vegan and otherwise. As if the arm-like tree branches offering hugs of nature didn't serve as welcome enough, the menu's assertion that "everything on menu is vegan" assured me of the kind, compassionate, hospitable hands of Garden Cafe.
Boasting a widely varied brunch menu of salads, sandwiches, soups, tofu scrambles, french toast, vegan bowls, and entree specials, Garden Cafe ensures a delightful eating experience for any style of diner, whether omnivores sampling indulgent vegan fare or highly health-conscious, long-time avoiders of animal flesh and secretions. While I essentially could have closed my eyes, twirled my finger, randomly pointed to a menu item, and reveled in the scrumptiousness of any of the Cafe's dishes, the daily entree special left me particularly enamored: a platter consisting of four loosely Asian-themed components to culminate in a veritable celebration of the taste buds that I have not experienced in a great while.
From top-right traveling clockwise, my superb meal included succulent yet pleasantly crunchy sauteed bok choy in a sumptuous peanut sauce topped with sesame seeds, a rainbow-colored pilaf of coconut red rice studded with carrots and celery, amazingly tender-crisp curried roasted cauliflower with sweet peas and red peppers served as a refreshing cold salad, and wasabi chip crusted tempeh triangles smothered with apple-ginger chutney. Need I say more?
Obviously, I could hardly depart from this haven of gourmet vegan fare without sampling a dessert, to the tune of a warm peach-blueberry crumble topped with vanilla soy ice cream. Wowza.
After our epiphany of a lunch, my mother and I strolled through the town of Woodstock, stumbling upon a yoga studio, an adorable bed-and-breakfast, an overwhelming array of handmade jewelry and clothing boutiques, a smoothie and juice bar called Press and Blend, the Tea Shop of Woodstock at which I sipped a breathtaking iced infusion of coconut-almond green tea, and an astoundingly hippie-ish bakery called Peace Love & Cupcakes at which we purchased two raw chocolate cupcakes (one of which my non-vegan dormmate ended up eating and exclaiming, "This is the best cupcake I've ever had!").
As if by miracle, one of the Vassar Animal Rights Coalition's co-presidents recently informed me that we will journey up to the Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary this Saturday for some animal lovin', followed by a lunch at none other than Garden Cafe on the Green. I can hardly contain my excitement in returning to the town and will certainly scribe a blog post in the near future detailing my upcoming Woodstock adventures.
Comment Provoking Questions: Have you ever visited a farm animal sanctuary? If so, which one? What were your experiences there like? Have you ever been to Woodstock? What were your impressions?
Happy Vegan MoFo!
Until next time, Ali.

Luke 22:45-46
45 When He rose up from prayer, and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow.
46 Then He said to them, "Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation."
Sorrow is a difficult emotion. We have all had our share of sorrow and grief, some more than others. When such emotion comes upon us, it is tempting to just weep until we can weep no more, to let our emotions run loose for a while. And when we have finally exhausted ourselves, it seems there is no recourse but sleep and rest. At such times, it may even seem that rest is the best thing we could do, lest in our fatigue we do something stupid.
There is certainly a place and time for rest in our sorrow, but we must not let it drag us down. The worst temptation is to allow resting to turn into despair and depression, following a downward spiral that leads away from life and hope and love. That sort of depression causes us to rest all the time, to wallow in our sorrow rather than to seek to continue acting and living in spite of our sorrow.
That is why Jesus told His disciples to stay awake and pray: He did not want them to be tempted into despair and inaction. On the contrary, He knew what was coming, and how they needed strength in the days ahead. So He admonished them to watch and pray…which they still did not do.
And what was the result? When Jesus was arrested, they ran away. When He faced the Sanhedrin, they denied Him. When He was crucified, they went home to their fishing boats and old lives. In short, they gave up on Jesus.
Luke 22:41-44
41 And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and prayed,
42 saying, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."
43 Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him.
44 And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
Look at the example that Jesus gives us here. He is in agony over what He is about to face, and yet, rather than yield to the temptation to rest and avoid facing His anguish, He prays even harder! In fact, in chapter 17 of the Gospel of John, we get a deeper look into what Jesus prayed:
John 17:11
"Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are."
HE was praying for THEM! He was praying for US!
What might have happened if, instead of giving in to their fleshly fatigue, the disciples had surrounded their friend and Teacher with prayer? What might have happened if, in answer to their prayers, they had been visited by angels of their own? What might have happened if they had not given in to sorrow and grief, and instead had taken the opportunity to pray and even worship? We don't know what would have happened, but it sure would have changed the ending chapters of the four Gospels!
What we do know is that the disciples reacted as they often did, with fear and sorrow. They did not allow their hearts to be guided by faith in the Savior they knew–He who had given them power to do miracles in His name. They did not lift up their friend Jesus in prayer on the darkest night of His life. They had feasted for the Passover, and yet they had not had their eyes opened to see the spotless Lamb of God who was about to be slain so that death would pass over them forever. The disciples slept in sorrow, ran in fear, and then went home in despair.
And yet we have their example of human frailty laid out for us so beautifully in the Gospels. Why? Why are we shown these weak men who gave up so easily?
We see them sleep so we may see them finally rise and pray. We see them doubt so we may see them in faith. We see them stumbling for the right words to say to heal a child so that we may witness the miracle of the Holy Spirit acting through them after Jesus is gone. We see them weak and afraid so that we may see them bold and self-sacrificing as they later preach the gospel in the same town where their Savior was crucified.
We see them sleeping from sorrow so we know that we must not do the same. This is not the first time the Lord had confronted someone who was resting when he should have been working.
When Elijah had slain the priests of Baal, he fled into the wilderness, afraid that Jezebel's and Ahab's minions would find and kill him. And although the Lord sent birds to feed him, Elijah went further still until he had come to a cave on a mountain. There, the Lord questioned Elijah–TWICE!–"What are you doing here?" The Lord went on to explain to the fearful prophet that there were 7,000 more believers waiting in Israel to be led against evil King Ahab. And there was a young man named Elisha ready to become Elijah's disciple. Elijah had reacted with fear and sorrow over his seemingly unavoidable fate, and the Lord had told him to get going and do his job! (1st Kings 19)
What are we doing here? Why are we sleeping? Let us rise and pray, lest we enter into temptation!
I know there are many who grieve over the situation in our country these days. We are sometimes in denial, but when the reality of our nation's depravity hits home, we feel it deep in our souls. And so we lament and cry out and grieve for the lost souls of our generation. "So many will never know Jesus!" we cry, feeling like the end is so near. And far too many of us believers hide like Elijah and think we are too little, too weak, too broken to do anything.
"Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation."
Rise and pray, lest we give in to despair that others may never know Jesus.
Rise and pray, lest we miss the opportunity to intercede for others.
Rise and pray, lest we miss out on the strength of the angels who answer our call.
Rise and pray, lest we fall into inaction and allow Satan to run rampant.
Rise and pray, lest we enter into other temptations that already war with our souls.
Rise and pray, because our Lord has told us we must.
We have a great opportunity here and now as a nation. We can sleep from sorrow and cry out "Woe is me!" Or we can rise up for Jesus and lift Him and His shepherds in prayer. We can bolster the soldiers of God on the front lines of this spiritual war that is waging in the hearts and minds of our nation. We can rise and pray and ACT on the commission He has given us to preach the gospel and make disciples. We can and must rise and pray and worship the One who, on the night before His Crucifixion, prayed for all of us.
John 17:20-23
20 "I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word;
21 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.
22 And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:
23 I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me."
Come, let us rise and pray!
Blessed Father God, we thank You that You have joined us together with Your Son through His blood, that we might all be sons and daughters of God. Thank You for Your Holy Spirit who guides and keeps us as Jesus Himself requested of You. We praise Your for Your love and mercy, for Your grace and power, for Your wisdom and righteousness. Help us, Lord, not to sleep but to always rise and pray, lest we enter into temptation. Amen.

Hilary Meyer '99
Moving into assisted living or long-term care as we age can be traumatic. But the situation is even less secure for the aging lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) population, many of whom hide their sexual identity from caregivers and other residents. Currently, three million LGBT people in the United States are age 55 or older, and that population is expected to double over the next two decades. Hilary Meyer '99 works to educate, empower, and protect this vulnerable group, as director of national programs for SAGE (Services and Advocacy for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Elders).
"I wanted to be a psychologist," said Meyer, who did case management and group work for a year after graduating from Colgate, where she was a two-sport athlete and Charles A. Dana Scholar. "But I decided I was more interested in working day to day on bigger, systemic changes, so I went to law school."
With her sights set on social justice and LGBT rights, Meyer graduated from Rutgers University School of Law in 2005, spent a year litigating, then went to Lambda Legal, the nation's largest legal organization working to protect the civil rights of LGBT people and those with HIV. There, she worked to enhance diversity on the bench by distributing public education material, working with other nonprofits to create judge voting guides, and speaking to bar associations on the importance of impartiality.
In October 2010, Meyer was hired to oversee SAGE's national programs. Initially, her focus was the federally funded National Resource Center on LGBT Aging. One of their goals is to train service providers at hospitals, assisted living centers, and long-term care facilities how to work with LGBT seniors and make them feel welcome, and how to educate them on their legal and medical rights.
"The folks in their seventies and eighties have lived through a lifetime of discrimination," Meyer explained, "and are more likely to be socially isolated, less likely to have partners and family relationships, and have a tremendous distrust of service providers and the government due to a lifetime of hiding who they are."
A recent national survey of LGBT older adults in long-term care facilities found that only 22 percent felt they could be open about their identities with staff; 89 percent predicted staff would discriminate based on sexual orientations and/or gender identities; and 43 percent reported instances of mistreatment.
Meyer came out her sophomore year at Colgate and last year married her partner, Nora Nolan. The two live in Los Angeles, where Nolan is an entertainment writer. "We've been very much accepted and embraced by family and friends, thanks in part to those pioneers who paved the way for LGBT acceptance," she said.
"But we're not there yet in our society [with LGBT rights] — there are still huge problems in our country, and even more so abroad," said Meyer, who in her free time plays goalie in a men's ice hockey league (she was the youngest female inductee into Colgate's Athletics Hall of Honor).
Through SAGE's national programs, hundreds have found jobs, more than 6,000 service providers have received training, a website with resources on LGBT aging issues was created, and LGBT senior centers are opening (most recently in the Bronx, N.Y.).
"I love what I do," Meyer said. "It feels really meaningful to give back and help these folks have a healthy and respected aging process."

|Filling out the paperwork in the office - I'm getting pretty good at this
Just returned from my morning visit to my urologist. So here's the deal. He examined my prostate, the ONLY way to start out the week. Yep, the rubber glove and KY lubricant. Okay, okay, TMI.
Here's what he found. An unexpected "bump" on one side of my prostate but no "rough" patches which usually indicate prostate cancer. However, he did recommend that I get the biopsy to rule out that I don't have prostate cancer. He said it would be useless to treat me for another prostate condition if I already had prostate cancer so let's get "that out of the way." I agreed with him. My biopsy is scheduled for 8:30 am, January 28th, 2012.
Don't cry for me Argentina. It is what it is. It could be worse. The company that makes Twinkies could go bankrupt.

Who or what has been the greatest influence on your music?
"I remember when I first discovered Sevdah, the folk music from Bosnia … I was captured not only by the beautiful, often sad songs, but also by the fact that they are a real melting pot of cultures. I loved hearing the different voices come through together and it inspired me to include all of who I am in my music."
