The main belief behind the concept of a money trust is that the majority of the world's financial wealth and political power could be controlled by a powerful few.
This idea was validated in the United States by the Pujo Committee in 1913 which unanimously determined that a small cabal of financiers had gained consolidated control of numerous industries through the abuse of the public trust. The chair of the House Committee on Banking and Currency, Representative Arsène Pujo, (D–La. 7th) convened a special committee to investigate a "money trust", the de facto monopoly of Morgan and New York's other most powerful bankers. The committee issued a scathing report on the banking trade, and found that the officers of J.P. Morgan & Co. also sat on the boards of directors of 112 corporations with a market capitalization of $22.5 billion (the total capitalization of the New York Stock Exchange was then estimated at $26.5 billion).
Attorney Samuel Untermyer who headed the 1913 Pujo Money Trust Investigation Committee to investigate money trusts defined a money trust to George Baker during the Pujo hearings; "We define a money trust as an established identity and community of interest between a few leaders of finance, which has been created and is held together through stock-holding, interlocking directorates, and other forms of domination over banks, trust companies, railroads, public service and industrial corporations, and which has resulted in vast and growing concentration and control of money and credits in the hands of a few men".
Was it the heady feeling
The thrill of opportunity
Do you know your misdemeanour
Has shamed the whole community
Why did you take the money
Why did you have to steal it
I know you took the money
Your mother couldn't believe it
Big cheese, you got the power
Must make you irresistible, huh?
These days an honest feller
Seems like a flaming radical
Why did you take the money
Why did you have to steal it
I know you took the money

(KTVI)-It's February 2nd, 2013 and that means it is Groundhog Day. And with these words, warm weather lovers rejoiced on Saturday morning.
"…there is no shadow to see. An early Spring for you and me."
So said Punxsutawney Phil, the famous groundhog of Punxsutawney, PA, predicting an early Spring. Legend has it that if Phil sees his shadow on Feb. 2 on Gobbler's Knob, winter will last six more weeks. But if he doesn't see his shadow, spring will come early.
It was one of the largest crowds every in Punxsutawney. An estimated 20,000 braved single digit temps to see Phil make his prediction in person.
What do other forecasting rodents say?
Chattanooga Chuck did not see his shadow and predicted an early spring. He got some help with his forecast from his friends at the Tennessee Aquarium.
Staten Island Chuck also didn't see his shadow this morning at the Staten Island Zoo, signaling an early thaw. That makes three warmer weather forecasts.

MICHAEL: Eric and I have been busy putting together the outline for our next book Baseball's Could Have Beens: Major League Mishaps, Misfortunes, and Mistakes. This follow-up to You Stink! features 30 ballplayers who had a ton of potential, but whose careers ended prematurely, as well as the histories of MLB teams that finished far below expectations. Our player list is firm at 30, but we are still looking for input as to which teams to include. Baseball historian Jonathan Knight was kind enough to offer us some excellent team suggestions, most of which have been added. Here is what we have so far:
- 1906 Chicago Cubs: Played a completely dominant regular season in which they set major league records for victories, but didn't win the World Series.
- 1940s Red Sox: Blew the World Series in Game 7 in '46, and then blew the pennant on the last day of the season in '48 and '49.
- 1950s Brooklyn Dodgers: Won six pennants in 10 years (losing two others on the last day of the season), but only won one World Series.
- 1954 Cleveland Indians: Won a then-record 111 games, got to the World Series, and then were swept.
- 1981 Cincinnati Reds: Had the best overall record in baseball that year, but because of the two-tiered structure of the strike-torn season, they didn't qualify for the playoffs.
- 1987 Cleveland Indians: Put on the cover of Sports Illustrated's season preview and picked to go to the World Series. Went on to lose 100 games.
- 1980s Oakland A's: Won in '89, but were upset by clearly inferior teams in '88 and '90.
- 1990s Pittsburgh Pirates: Three straight division titles with no World Series berths.
- 1990s-2000s Atlanta Braves: Made playoffs 14 straight years, but only won one World Series and lost four others.
- 2001 Seattle Mariners: Played completely dominant regular seasons in which they each set league records for victories, but didn't win the World Series.
Who else would you include? There are 2-5 team slots left (depending on how many good ideas we get). In order to prevent duplicative nominations, we are asking you to post your suggested teams right here in the Comments section with a very brief description of why they should be included. All winning suggestions will be properly credited in the Acknowledgements chapter of the book. Thanks in advance for your input. We can't wait to see who you come up with!

Otto has always been full of smiles, even at just under two weeks old, he seemed to be beaming up at us all the while (and I'm sure it wasn't wind!), so this continued with my visit, his friendly manner echo's that of his growing, clever big sister Esme!

Aaron owns a farm. Aaron has given First Bank and Trust in mortgage on the farm. Aaron transfers ownership of the farm to Bob and gives Bob a general warranty deed. The general warranty deed to Bob warrants that there are no encumbrances on the farm and does not mention the mortgage to First Bank and Trust. Bob owns the farm only a short time, and sells the farm by limited warranty deed to Carol. Carol decides that farm life is not for her and sells the farm by general warranty deed to David. The general warranty deed does not mention the mortgage to First Bank and Trust. One week after David purchased the farm, First Bank and Trust notifies David of the mortgage. Is there a breach of any deed warranty or covenant and, if so, which covenant? At this stage, can David sue Carol? Can David sue Bob? Can David sue Aaron?
First Bank and Trust, after notifying David of its mortgage, commences foreclosure proceedings to sell David's farm to pay the debt. At this stage, what deed covenant has been violated, if any? At this stage, can David sue Carol for breach of covenant? Bob? Aaron?

"Playing in the Dark" features original works by playwrights Raymond Fast, Daniel Guyton, Kate Guyton, James Walsh and Dan Brown. In addition, original music was composed for the production by local composers and musicians Paige Garwood and Chris Owenby.
"Playing in the Dark" is a collection of short, provocative stories all revolving around the same theme - if confronted by one of the many faces of tragedy, what would you do? Would you do what's right? Could you? Character is most clearly revealed by the way one responds to life's challenges. These are eight tragic tales of hope, redemption, and enlightenment.
Playing in the Spotlightby playgoer
Sunday, May 18, 2014
"Playing in the Dark" combines three previously-seen short plays with five new ones to create an evening of dark-tinged entertainment. Eight actors populate all roles in the eight plays, and all are under the direction of a single director. This gives the evening a more cohesive feel than is usually the case with local short play collections.
First up is Dan Brown's "The Powell Plot," about a brother and sister plotting what sort of burial plot their disapproving, recently dead father deserves. The play is basically a porch conversation between Grayson (Matthew Busch) and Meredith (Lauren Coleman) in which the sins of the father are revealed and reviled. It's a bit mean-spirited, but goes down easy due to the fine acting.
Next is Kate Guyton's "Ghosts in the Field." This is a niftily told story in which two paranormal researchers (Emily Anne Arvidson and Ian Gibson) escort an elderly woman (Teresa Harris) to a spot at the edge of the woods where a double murder occurred of her beau (Mario Avani) and her beau's best friend (Matthew Busch). The interaction of the ghosts and humans is deftly staged, and the full implications of the story are deftly revealed. The equipment and performances of the researchers are a bit cumbersome, and there was an apparent line glitch in the performance I saw, so this was the roughest of the productions, but it is still an impressive bit of playwriting.
Up third comes "Daffodils," by Daniel Guyton. This play seemed overly long and overly opaque to me. At least part of this was due to the fuzzy diction of Ian Gibson, playing a man who obviously had been traumatized near a field of daffodils and whose blood had spilled there. The back story of his fiancée, played by Lauren Coleman, was clear, although it came a little late and didn't mesh particularly well with his back story. The acting was good in emotional terms, but volumes were too low even for the tiny venue.
Last in the first act is Raymond Fast's "Monster." This pairs an imprisoned murderer (Andy Ward) with his victim (Mario Avani), bringing in his wife (Teresa Harris) near the end. The telling of the story is the main draw here, with lots of unison speaking and overlapped speech. It's a viscerally exciting piece.
The second act begins with Kate Guyton's "Tattered Suitcase," which slowly reveals itself as a Holocaust tale, with a daughter (Emily Anne Arvidson) being sent to America by her mother (Lauren Coleman) and father (Mario Avani). The slow reveal is perhaps a bit too straightforward, but it ends with a powerful final image.
Following this is another tale involving Jewish emigration, Raymond Fast's "Family Tree." A father (Andy Ward) tells his son (Matthew Busch) unexpected information that the dead mother had kept secret during her lifetime. It's a well enough told story, but its resonance comes primarily from its positioning after "Tattered Suitcase" rather than from its intrinsic merits. It even shares a set with "Tattered Suitcase."
Next-to-last is James Walsh's "Chasing Satan," a monologue delivered by Jerry Jobe as a cowardly Civil War soldier who attempts to redeem his cowardice. I think the script could be sharpened somewhat to point up the cowardice before it becomes a plot point, but it plays well. The lighting design of Laura Demain, effective throughout, is most impressive in this playlet.
The show ends with Raymond Fast's somewhat sentimental "Waiting for Leonard." The evening is touted as "eight tragic tales of hope, redemption, and enlightenment," but this is the only one that truly tugs at the heartstrings and brings a happy tear to the eye. It's nicely performed by Teresa Harris as an elderly woman on a park bench, Emily Anne Arvidson as a woman bringing her (invisible) daughter to the park, Mario Avani as her husband, and Matthew Busch as the long-awaited Leonard. Blocking is a bit of a problem, though, since it has Ms. Arvidson repeatedly treading over a section of the stage where squirrels are supposedly being fed by the elderly woman.
Other than that, the staging is quite nice. Raymond Fast has designed scenic and sound elements that nicely delineate each story and that are changed with acceptable speed. The sets could have been a great deal simpler, but the variety creates a unique world for each piece. This works remarkably well with the consistent direction and consistently fine acting that unite the pieces to create an impressive evening of thoughtful entertainment.

A low-cost and lightweight solar-panel maker has triumphed in a contest to find the next big idea in energy efficiency.
Big Solar's flexible photovoltaic (PV) sheets are light enough to attach to the side of buildings as well as the roof. The company beat four others in ENGIE UK's Big Pitch, winning a £10,000 cash prize and an introduction to the French energy company's new ventures investment fund.
"The way the world generates and consumes energy is going through an unprecedented transformation," said ENGIE UK's Wilfrid Petrie.
The other finalists were North London appliance supplier Homie, Guildford-based Flywheel Energy Storage, Upside and The Great Outdoor Gym Company. The Evening Standard has been running a series of Clean London reports. On June 30 it will host a green debate chaired by presenter Kirsty Wark.

This is a repost of my column on Dad Blogs, Armed And Fatherly, copied here as part of an ongoing effort to archive my various musings that biographers and/or Presidential librarians will probably someday want easy access to. This particular one is my second, originally posted May 23rd, 2009.
With the combination of the recent swine flu epidemic, the economic downturn, and Joan Rivers' inconceivable new title as "The Next Apprentice," it seems that now may be the best time to discuss an issue that I don't believe gets enough attention from parents today: if the world is suddenly beset by zombies, what umbrella stroller would serve you the best in trying to keep your family safe from the hordes of the undead? I've spent many a restless night pondering this very question, and after much research and some state-mandated intensive therapy now consider myself reasonably proficient in the topic to provide some answers for you as well.
The first point (well, maybe the second) folks usually bring up when I mention this topic is to ask why I don't recommend the standard "el-cheapo" umbrella stroller you can buy pretty much anywhere. And honestly, if it meet your needs, then by all means don't buy anything better. There isn't anything wrong with those strollers – they are cheap, super compact, easy to lug around, lightweight, a snap to close, and come in camouflage should you need to quickly hide in the bushes as undead police officers troll the countryside looking for "survivors" in which to eat their brains. We certainly have one of these umbrella strollers (we received it free in my Oscar Presenter gift basket), and have used it many times.
One problem that we've encountered with the basic models though is that they are often cheaply constructed and in some cases can fall apart under heavy use. But by far the worst issue for us is that the seat is just plain uncomfortable, as the bottom of the seat digs into our daughter's legs, and she can only last 10-15 minutes in there, which is just not helpful when we are out shopping or searching for any uninfected survivors. Plus there is generally no place to stash the shotgun you'll inevitably need to battle back your ex-neighbor who is now trying to get back at you for trampling his roses by munching on your brains.
We decided after a lot of thoughtful consideration that we needed to be ready with a better umbrella stroller should the zombies arrive, and we began a laborious search for a more sophisticated one for our daughter, one that could meet all the requirements we needed. After much heated deliberation and a few phone calls to the government run Zombie Hot Line, we came up with the following list of requirements we were looking for.
1) A Comfortable Ride
Most likely in the event of zombie invasion, you are going to find yourselves moving around on foot, as the gas stations will probably either be on fire or breeding grounds for mechanic zombies to show off their 'undead rides'. You'll need a stroller that your child can be in for long periods of time, and that is largely dependent on comfort. Look for decent padding in the seat, and especially under the knees where the feet will hang. You may also want to find one with a reclining seat, so that your child can sleep in the stroller if necessary, should you need to camp for the night in an abandoned log cabin deep in the woods deceptively far from the reach of the undead armies.
2) A basket underneath and/or storage pockets
Lugging supplies (baby food, diapers, ammunition, dental floss) between barricades of survivors will certainly weigh on you during the zombie invasion, so having a place on the stroller to store things can be a lifesaver. We love the basket under our regular stroller, and we wanted to maintain that convenience while in flight with our umbrella stroller.
3) Long handles
My wife and I are reasonably tall, and we found with our free umbrella stroller that it just wasn't built for tall folks. If I need to run from my boss turned zombie trying to kill me with the Mr. Potato Head I have on my desk at work, I can't afford to have a stiff back from bending over our umbrella stroller. The best way to determine if it will work for you is if you can get your hands on an actual model at a Babies R' Us or Cabela's Zombie Supply and test it out.
4) Folds Compactly
Should we actually make it to a safe zone, we'd want to be able to fold up our umbrella stroller as compactly as possible, as similarly as possible to the aforementioned cheap models in order to maximize space in our FEMA trailer. In our research we found that some of the high end umbrella strollers didn't fold up in the slim style but instead like a normal stroller (think collapse rather than umbrella fold), which just defeats the purpose of using it instead of the regular stroller.
5) A Sun Shade
Despite the dark and gloomy look of most zombie invasions portrayed in movies, there really isn't a reason to believe that an actual attack would change weather patterns at all. Therefore a sun shade would come in handy to ensure that our daughter stays cool and happy even as her infected zombie infant friends are slowly but unwaveringly crawling after us, diapers full of digested brains and Zwieback toast.
Is the threat of a unforeseen zombie horde borne of the swine flu possible or even imminent? That is hard to say. Would an umbrella stroller that meets the above requirements allow you to escape the chaos and reach a zombie-free safe haven where the remaining humans keep nightly vigils at the walls to turn back the waves of undead? Very likely in my opinion. Regardless of this specific topic, I implore you, whether you are in the market for an umbrella stroller, a brain penetrating shotgun, or steel skullcap capable of resisting zombie chomping, BE PREPARED. Tomorrow we could all be dead. Or in this case undead.

A National Dialogue on Care at End of Life
Posted by Steve Jones
Tue, Mar 25, 2014
There are some topics that need to be discussed but we just don't. Advance Care Planning, Palliative Care and Physician Assisted Dying frequently make the news headlines like some distant third party events but personal discussions are avoided like sex and politics at the family level. Too personal, too confusing, too many unknowns, too emotional?
The Canadian Medical Association (CMA) will get us talking by hosting a discussion on health care at the end of life through a series of live town hall meetings across Canada. Discussions will also be live-streamed and augmented by on-line discussion boards.
According to research performed by Harris/Decima in a Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association survey, 80% of Canadians believe that these serious conversations should begin when we are healthy or at an early stage of diagnosis of a life limiting illness. Nevertheless, most of us don't have the conversation and even fewer put our wishes in writing.
Of course, live streaming and on-line discussion boards will improve accessibility and increase the audience size but maybe not for the over 70 crowd. Not complaining, Just saying….
The town hall meetings are open to the public and will address the "terminology and nuances in this complex and emotional area". The meetings will also gather input from the public and CMA members with hopes that the information will help guide the CMA in its future policies and initiatives.
Members can engage in online discussions at www.cmadialogue.ca and the public can experience the town hall meetings while they are underway via live streaming at: http://www.macleans.ca/healthseries.
Public groups and individuals are encouraged to participate at no charge in person at the various regional forums from 7 PM to 9 PM. Due to limited space you must register in advance.
The public town halls will be held in:

The Colletta di Castelbianco Sculpture Park was inaugurated when the first sculpture was sited in the grounds of Colletta in the summer of 2008.
Colletta is a recently renovated medieval village located on a small hill top in a larger valley twenty minutes' drive from the Ligurian sea and 45 minutes' drive from the French/Italian border. The slopes around the village are planted with cherry and olive trees in places and are terraced in others.
Colletta's quite unique geographic location makes it a wonderful, natural place for a sculpture park as it affords many different perspectives and places from which to view outdoor sculptures.

Picture: Kenny Rogers promotes his new book 'Luck or Something Like It' at Barnes and Noble bookstore New York City, USA - 03.10.12
Singer Kenny Rogers is determined to witness his young sons' early years as he regrets missing so much of his older kids' childhoods due to his busy career.
The Islands in the Stream hitmaker is dad to two grown-up sons and a daughter from previous marriages, and he most recently became a father to twin boys, Jordan and Justin, by his fifth wife Wanda.
Rogers dotes on the nine year olds, but admits watching them grow up has made him realise he wasn't there for his family during his heyday.
He tells Britain's Daily Express, "I'm more responsible now. When I was younger I wanted success so desperately but had not figured out the difference between being driven and being selfish.
"I'm on good terms with my older sons' children now but I see how much I missed of their lives and how it hurt them and that hurts me. I'm determined not to do that with these boys."
Jordan and Justin like to watch their father perform at concerts, and Rogers adds, "They come on stage and sing with me but they're not great singers... I try not to encourage it."
Country music has long been associated as a storytelling journey, but the evolution of the...

Approximately one in every six dollars flowing through the American economy is spent on healthcare.
In 1960, it was one in twenty.
Between 2006 and 2016, the average premium contribution paid by American families with employer-sponsored health insurance increased by 77 percent, from $2,973 in 2006 to $5,277 in 2016.
During the same period, median household income rose by just under 19 percent, from $48,451 to $57,617.
A 2012 study published in the Annals of Family Medicine, says if these trends continue and we don't change the healthcare system, the average cost of a family health insurance premium will consume 50 percent of household income by 2021, and exceed the average household income by 2033.
The cost of healthcare is a crisis that is harming families and the U.S. economy—and the problem is getting worse. Healthcare spending is crowding out investments in infrastructure, education, and other societal priorities—many of which directly impact health.
We Need to Ask WHY Healthcare Costs So Much — and WHAT We Can Do About It
These are questions that NRHI and its members are keenly focused on, and there's a lot we already know.
Healthcare costs are driven by prices, waste, and a payment system that incentivizes volume over value.
Anyone who has ever asked their doctor how much a recommended test will cost has probably been told "it depends." Healthcare prices are opaque, complex, and wildly varying depending on where you live, who's paying for it, and where the test is performed. This opacity leads to prices unrelated to quality and reflecting whatever the market will bear, and has led to a dramatic increase in prices over recent years.
We currently have a system where as much as 37% of all healthcare expenditures are wasted — either through unnecessary tests and treatments that can actually harm patients or because of administrative costs that burden providers and do nothing to advance health.
And, with payment systems that reward providers for tests, treatments, and admissions — even when unnecessary — and don't pay for interventions and practices that can improve health, it's no wonder we're in the mess we're in.
So, What's It Going To Take?
First, we need to find out what's driving costs in different cities, states, and regions. If we don't know what the problem is we can't fix it. This means we need data sharing within and across communities — to identify the problems — and to fix them.
Next, we need to change the incentives so that providers are paid for helping people get and stay healthy, and not for providing services that they don't need.
We need to cut the waste — both in terms of low-value services, and in burdensome administrative requirements that don't lead to health and do lead to physician frustration and dissatisfaction.
And, we need to involve everyone with a stake in the healthcare system in working toward solutions. This means providers, insurance companies, hospitals, employers, unions, policymakers, and patients.
What's Happening Now?
There are many organizations, associations, and government entities working toward the goal of better, more affordable healthcare. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is implementing the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 — or MACRA — which was designed to move Medicare toward value-based care. NRHI is helping practices prepare for MACRA through its SAN and QPP SURS initiatives. We are also working with our member regional health improvement collaboratives to test, implement, and participate in initiatives in and across communities such as Getting to Affordability and Choosing Wisely.
NRHI and its members are making affordability a central focus of our work. In September 2017 NRHI sponsored the National Affordability Summit, a Washington DC event that brought together leaders from every segment of the U.S. healthcare system to discuss what actions, changes, and political will are needed to challenge the nation's healthcare status quo. Since then, our members have begun their own efforts to change the conversation around healthcare to focus on the fundamental question of healthcare affordability.

A new order for CPR, spelled C-A-B
The American Heart Association is re-arranging the ABCs of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in its 2010 American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care, published in Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association.
Recommending that chest compressions be the first step for lay and professional rescuers to revive victims of sudden cardiac arrest, the association said the A-B-Cs (Airway-Breathing-Compressions) of CPR should now be changed to C-A-B (Compressions-Airway-Breathing).
"For more than 40 years, CPR training has emphasized the ABCs of CPR, which instructed people to open a victim's airway by tilting their head back, pinching the nose and breathing into the victim's mouth, and only then giving chest compressions," said Michael Sayre, M.D., co-author of the guidelines and chairman of the American Heart Association's Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) Committee. "This approach was causing significant delays in starting chest compressions, which are essential for keeping oxygen-rich blood circulating through the body. Changing the sequence from A-B-C to C-A-B for adults and children allows all rescuers to begin chest compressions right away."
In previous guidelines, the association recommended looking, listening and feeling for normal breathing before starting CPR. Now, compressions should be started immediately on anyone who is unresponsive and not breathing normally.
All victims in cardiac arrest need chest compressions. In the first few minutes of a cardiac arrest, victims will have oxygen remaining in their lungs and bloodstream, so starting CPR with chest compressions can pump that blood to the victim's brain and heart sooner. Research shows that rescuers who started CPR with opening the airway took 30 critical seconds longer to begin chest compressions than rescuers who began CPR with chest compressions.
The change in the CPR sequence applies to adults, children and infants, but excludes newborns.
Other recommendations, based mainly on research published since the last AHA resuscitation guidelines in 2005:
- During CPR, rescuers should give chest compressions a little faster, at a rate of at least 100 times a minute.
- Rescuers should push deeper on the chest, compressing at least two inches in adults and children and 1.5 inches in infants.
- Between each compression, rescuers should avoid leaning on the chest to allow it to return to its starting position.
- Rescuers should avoid stopping chest compressions and avoid excessive ventilation.
- All 9-1-1 centers should assertively provide instructions over the telephone to get chest compressions started when cardiac arrest is suspected.
Since 2008, the American Heart Association has recommended that untrained bystanders use Hands-Only CPR CPR without breaths for an adult victim who suddenly collapses. The steps to Hands-Only CPR are simple: call 9-1-1 and push hard and fast on the center of the chest until professional help or an AED arrives.
Key guidelines recommendations for healthcare professionals:
- Effective teamwork techniques should be learned and practiced regularly.
- Professional rescuers should use quantitative waveform capnography the monitoring and measuring of carbon dioxide output to confirm intubation and monitor CPR quality.
- Therapeutic hypothermia, or cooling, should be part of an overall interdisciplinary system of care after resuscitation from cardiac arrest.
- Atropine is no longer recommended for routine use in managing and treating pulseless electrical activity (PEA) or asystole.
The CPR and ECC guidelines are science-based recommendations for treating cardiovascular emergencies particularly sudden cardiac arrest in adults, children, infants and newborns. The American Heart Association established the first resuscitation guidelines in 1966.
The year 2010 marks the 50th anniversary of Kouwenhoven, Jude, and Knickerbocker's landmark study documenting cardiac arrest survival after chest compressions.

It's the migratory season, and birds from overseas are arriving to stay out the winter months with us. And some of the visitors are old friends, writes Malaka Rodrigo
Sri Lanka is the destination of choice for a variety of migrant birds, and they usually stop over at the same sites every year.
This was proved by two feathered visitors – a Common Redshank and a Lesser Sand Plover – that were captured recently in the Bundala National Park, on the southern coast.A team of bird lovers working for the National Bird Ringing Programme noted that the two birds had been ringed during earlier visits to the national park: the Common Redshank was ringed in 2009, and the Lesser Sand Plover in 2007.
|Exhausted Pitta found in Maradana in 2009
|Setting up mist nests in Bundala at dusk
Bird migration is a source of fascination to bird lovers. Year after year, during the visiting season, these overseas callers are drawn to Sri Lanka, because of the island's geographical position, just below the southern tip of the Indian subcontinent. Sri Lanka represents their final destination in their long journey from their homes in northern climates.
The National Bird Ringing Programme, a scientific study of bird migration patterns, is a joint venture of the Field Ornithology Group of Sri Lanka and the Department of Wild Life Conservation. The programme was launched six years ago, in April 2005, at the Bundala National Park.
Migrant birds start arriving in Sri Lanka around the middle of August, ahead of the winter in their native lands. After spending around six months in the island, they return to their breeding grounds towards the end of April the following year. Of the 492 bird species recorded in Sri Lanka, 169 or 36 per cent are migrants. Waders, ducks and coastal birds represent the bulk of the visitors.
The Bundala wetland, about 15 kilometres east of Hambantota, is a paradise for migrants, and has been the base for the ringing programme.
Ringing is a delicate operation, and is generally conducted at dusk. Mist nets (nets with small holes eyes) are strung up around the Bundala lagoon. Birds that get entangled in the nets are taken to the camp and their statistics recorded. A small, individually numbered ring is attached to the birds' legs.
The ringing exercise takes place four times a year, three during the migratory season and one in July. The three migratory season operations are conducted at the start of the wintering period (September to October); in mid-winter (December to January), and the end of the wintering period (March to April).
Researchers say the ringing programme should be expanded to other locations in the country in order to allow a better understanding of the migrants.
Habitat loss is a serious threat to migrants, says ornithologist, Professor Sarath W. K. Kotagama. The migrants are highly vulnerable to disruption of habitat, such as the cutting down of swathes of forest. These disruptions may threaten the very survival of the bird species, he says.
Watch out for migrants in trouble
Anyone who cares about birds and wildlife would be interested to know that you do not have to go all the way to the south coast, to places like the Bundala Nature Reserve, to see migrant birds.
Some of the more common migrants visit home gardens as their temporary residence, and even hover around populated urban areas, including the city of Colombo. These visitors include the Indian Pitta (Avichchiya); the Asian Paradise Flycatcher (Sudu-Redi Hora); the Blue-tailed Bee-eater; the Brown Flycatcher, the Barn Swallow, and the Forest Wagtail.
The Field Ornithology Group of Sri Lanka, an affiliate of BirdLife International, organizes "MigrantWATCH", an opportunity for bird lovers to observe and study migratory birds.
Some of the common migrants need our help in order to survive. The Indian Pitta, for example, arrives in Sri Lanka, usually exhausted after its long journey. Protect the bird if you see it in your garden.
The Sunday Times reported one such Indian Pitta that was rescued in Nugegoda. and another that was rescued in Colombo. Alert residents can help the tired bird by rescuing the troubled Indian Pittas found in their gardens. "This is one of the reasons we started MigrantWATCH," says a member of the Ornithological Society.

A Complete Guide to Dumpster Rental Fees
Tips to Manage Your Dumpster Rental Budget
Our straightforward pricing and clear rental terms make it easy to keep track of your waste removal budget. However, there are a few instances where you may see additional fees – such as overloading your dumpster or exceeding the weight limit. Our guide is here to help you avoid unexpected costs.
What Is a Disposal Fee?
Bulk Waste
Certain landfills charge more to sort and process recyclable household items like appliances and electronics. This may also apply for mattresses and upholstered furniture, since they can take up a lot of space in the dump. We'll review these costs with you so you know what to expect.
Mixed Debris
Special-use dumpsters, often rented for items like heavy debris or yard waste, have strict limitations on the specific type of debris you can put inside. For instance, if you're tossing concrete or dirt, the sorting facility may not accept the container if they spot food waste or household debris.
Hazardous Waste
Hazardous wastes like batteries, paints and gasoline are prohibited in most landfills for environmental and safety reasons. If you need to dispose of hazardous debris, find a drop-off site or collection event in your area.
Find the Right Dumpster for Your Debris
What Is a Trip Charge?
Give Delivery Instructions
Give us detailed delivery instructions so the driver can place the dumpster in the correct location. There will be a trip fee if we need to return to relocate the container.
Check Height Requirements
The delivery truck needs 18 feet of vertical clearance to drop off a dumpster. So make sure to choose a drop spot with no low-hanging tree branches or power lines that would prevent delivery.
Don't Block the Way
Keep the area free and clear of vehicles and other obstacles that could block dumpster placement. If you live in a gated community or have a fenced-in construction site, make sure the gate is unlocked and open on delivery day.
What Is an Overage Charge?
An overage charge happens when the weight of your debris is more than the weight limit provided with your agreement. You'll likely be charged the difference, typically on a per-ton basis.
You may also see an overage charge if your dumpster is beyond the max limit of ten tons. Our drivers typically won't pick up a container this heavy for road safety reasons, but if they are able to get it to the landfill, you may see an "over the road" fee, which varies depending on the laws in your state.
To avoid unexpected charges, we'll help you choose the right dumpster size for your debris and review all of the associated costs. You may even decide to factor a potential overage into your budget if you don't think you'll have enough debris to warrant a larger container or an empty-and-return.
What Is an Overloading Fee?
If debris is overflowing or hanging over the sides of the dumpster, it cannot be safely transported to the landfill. Debris could fall out, causing personal injuries or property damage.
How to Avoid Overloaded Dumpsters:
- Remember the weight limit.
- Load debris evenly, filling gaps.
- Place bulky items at the bottom.
- Break down boxes or large pieces.
When Do Extension Fees Apply?
Our generous rental periods typically range from 10-14 days, giving you the freedom to cleanup on your schedule. But sometimes, you need a little extra time. We're flexible – just let us know, and we'll extend your rental for a low daily rate.
Call Us When You're Ready for Pickup
We won't pick up your container until you call. To avoid extension fees when you don't need extra time, make sure to call on or before the last day of your rental period and we'll remove the dumpster promptly.
3 Ways to Prevent Unexpected Dumpster Rental Costs
Clear the Way
To avoid a trip charge, make sure the delivery location is clear and accessible. We'll ask about possible obstructions like hanging wires, locked gates or low-hanging tree branches.
Choose the Right Container
If you're tossing yard waste, roof shingles or concrete, ask us about the appropriate temporary container. We offer special-use dumpsters for these debris types.
Stay Within Your Weight Limit
Our dumpsters have generous weight limits - typically two to six tons for general waste and ten tons for heavy debris. If you need to toss more debris than expected, ask for our empty-and-return service.

Yannis Sakellarakis, A)NASKA/PTTONTAS TO PARELQO\N. Athens: Ammos Editions, 1995 . Pp.253. 13,000drs. ISBN 960-202-135-7.
Reviewed by Natalia Vogeikoff, American School of Classical Studies, Athens.
Prof. Sakellarakis, known from his field work and scholarly publications, has written a general book about excavation. He addresses a large audience unfamiliar with the more detailed methods and applications of modern archaeological research. His goal is not to produce a field manual, but rather an overview of work on an excavation.
The book is divided into thirteen chapters, and contains two digressions on the author's recent field work in Crete. Throughout the book the author sprinkles his text with colorful quotations from ancient and modern literature. Chapter I presents a short history of the human interest in older material remains from antiquity to present day. Chapter II discusses the qualities of a good field archaeologist (e.g., responsibility, objectivity, patience, and interdisciplinary approach). Chapters III and IV deal with the selection and survey of the excavation place, while Chapter V comments on the distribution of various tasks among the staff of an excavation. Chapter VI concerns the equipment necessary for both excavation and conservation of artifacts. Between Chapters VI and VII Sakellarakis makes a short presentation with photographic documentation of his excavation at Archanes. Chapters VII and VIII cover field work and emphasize the importance of detailed documentation in the excavation notebooks. Chapter IX deals with the storage of finds, their conservation, study, and publication. The relationship of the excavated archaeological area with its surrounding environment is discussed in Chapter X. The excavations at the Idean Cave and Zominthos are used as examples of archaeological sites accessible and friendly to the visitor, and where the excavator has showed respect to the surrounding environment. Their presentation is accompanied by photographic documentation. In Chapters XI and XII, Prof. Sakellarakis talks about the various feelings which an archaeologist experiences during the excavation; he also discusses "luck" as a factor involved in the archaeological discoveries. In the final chapter, Prof. Sakellarakis reminds us that excavation is a never ending business with an unforeseen continuation. Old excavations are constantly re-opened in order to clarify uncertainties or answer new questions.
With color photographs, and well written text, this book -- autobiographical to a certain degree -- will certainly appeal to a large audience.

To the Geological Society of London 27 March 1837
It appears that the principal object of Mr Williams'1 paper is to support the conclusions already arrived at by Prof: Sedgwick and Mr Murchison.2 The chief point of additional evidence is the discovery of numerous barnacles, beneath the sandstone strata, adhering to the ancient rocks, and elevated between five and ten feet above the living ones. Mr Williams adduces also, as a proof of disturbance the changed course of the Taw, as observed by tracing certain beds of gravel.
The most interesting part of the paper is the description of the subsided forest, near Watchet in North Somersetshire. This appears of more importance, than the case of Pembrokeshire, alluded to by Prof: S. and Mr. Murchison, because it is both nearer the described localities, and falls within the area, more particularly marked out as one of elevation.— These opposite movements3 are adduced as proofs, that we must look to changes of level, rather in the land, than in the water.—
I should, therefore on the above grounds, suggest that Mr Williams' paper, in a shortened form, should be printed in the Transactions, immediately after that of Prof: Sedgwick & Mr Murchison.—4

Recommends David Williams' paper on raised beaches of Devon [David Williams, "Letter … on the raised beaches of Barnstaple", Trans. Geol. Soc. Lond. 2d ser. 5 (1840): 287–8] be shortened and published immediately after Sedgwick's and Murchison's paper ["Description of a raised beach in Barnstaple", ibid., pp. 279–86] as chief point of paper is to support their conclusions.

Workshop Wednesday E13-14 #14
Did some stuff on the '72 Ironhead: The Bubble visor is leaving, it fogged up all the time so no clear vision with the head light. I found an old 50's / 60's cigarette holder I might use as cover, mock up looks good so I will check if its possible to make it happen. The MX Gasthrottle was not placed like I wanted so I made it the way I like it the most. The Sissybar got some upgrades, bent it straight and made some gussets cause it cracked on both sides... Working on the foot controls next wednesday.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND THANKS FOR CHECKING HOODLUM SOCIETY! Paul.

I have more information. It is about the murder of Robert and Ben Moore. When they were killed was an election year. The sheriff at that time, Wayne Wirsing was involved in a war of sorts with the lead detective Richard Heitkemper. Due to the war between the two, the sheriff wouldn't let Richard Heitkemper be the detective on the case. Instead he put a new guy on the case, a guy that wasn't familiar with cases like these. Mike Roberts had said at the time "there should be 4 or 5 guys working on this case." He knew it was a double murder. Mike did the best he could.
Eugene Heitkemper was locked in the Racine Jail when he wrote to the police that he had evidence of foul play in regards to the death of the Moore boys. The police waited one month before they investigated this. See police report page 3 of 7 (January 26, 1994
Eugene Heitkemper knew Mike Baxter because he was locked in the same jail in Raccine Wi. On April 20, 1994. Mike Baxter was arrested by the Phillips, Wisconsin Police for 2nd degree sexual assault of a child. A man I knew was in jail at that time for breaking into the school. When Mike Baxter was in Phillips jail he got beaten up because he was a pedophile. They sent him to Raccine.
Mike Baxter is a Jehovah Witness loner. My kids met him at the kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses. I was told the murderer's name is Mike Baxter. My informer was in Phillips Jail in 1990. Here is the open records for access on this pedophile. http://ccap.courts.state.wi.us./InternetCourtAccess. Look for this abuse on 10/23/90 There is no address on the records. I believe he lives in Chelsea Wis.
Check out Eugene Heitkemper's record. He was in jail 4/20/94 for drugs. Does anyone smell a rat besides me?

Greatest security threats come from Kosovo
"Kosovo and everything happening there is our greatest security challenge. There is always fear and danger the Albanians could attack the Serbs. We hope international factors will prevent that, but also sense among Albanians," he told the magazine Odbrana.
He said that during his recent visit to the U.S., he asked Defence Secretary Leon Panetta to keep U.S. troops in Kosovo because they could then always protect the Serb population.
"We have confirmation from the U.S. that they will grant our request, before the decision by the NATO Council in February, which is very important to our country," Vucic noted.
He pointed out to the excellent cooperation with all the countries that have troops in Kosovo, stressing mutual understanding and awareness of the complicated nature of the situation, which was why it was important that KFOR guaranteed peace and safety for the Serb population.
The cooperation between the Armed Forces and Defence Ministry with other armies and ministries should create friendships, and Serbia's participation in numerous multinational operations indicated it belonged to the responsible part of the world.
Serbia uses Partnership for Peace to establish the best possible cooperation with many western countries, and it has formed a serious cooperation with the Russian military for the first time in 12 years, he noted. There are no great limits within the joint security and defence policy of the EU, he said, adding that it was separate from joining NATO and stressing that Serbia would work with everyone who put peace in Europe and a policy of peace and security as their chief goal.
As for cooperation in the Balkans and Southeast Europe, Vucic underscored that Serbia had to and wanted to cooperate, but that it should be on a completely real and rational basis.
Commenting on potential for new contracts for the defence industry and strengths of Serbia's military, Vucic said Serbia's products were in line with Russian and NATO standards.
"Thanks to the friendships we have made in Asia and Africa as well, we have good access to important markets and can take advantage of that," he explained.
