text: The Daniel Douglas Collection consists of the account book of a general store owner in Freetown, Massachusetts, kept between 1795 and 1813. The journal documents Daniel Douglas' exchanges with men and women in the town. Martha Gilbert, "a black woman," and Black Nance were credited for washing, cleaning, combing wool, and domestic labor. The book also records aid given by the town to poor women. Hannah Fish was credited for teaching Douglas' daughter, Polly, "the art of making wearing apparel." Polly lived with Fish for six months and Douglas paid her ten dollars for the instruction.

An accident Sunday in the Hanover area of Anne Arundel County has resulted in the death of an unidentified pedestrian, police said.
Anne Arundel police said the man, dressed in dark clothing, was walking in the right eastbound lane of Dorsey Road, just west of the intersection with Ridge Road. The man was struck shortly before 8 p.m. by a Mazda sedan, driven by Matthew J. Lang, 26, of Harmans, who was not injured and who remained at the scene. The pedestrian was taken to Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where he was pronounced dead.
Poor lighting, pedestrian error and possible intoxication on the part of the pedestrian contributed to the crash, police said. Confirmation of the man's identity will depend on a fingerprint analysis, police said Monday.

Apple 85W MagSafe 2 Power Adapter (for MacBook Pro with Retina display)
The 85W MagSafe 2 Power Adapter features a magnetic DC connector so if someone trips over it, the lead disconnects harmlessly and your MacBook Pro stays put safely. It also helps prevent fraying or weakening of the cables over time. In addition, the magnetic DC helps guide the plug into the system for a quick and secure connection.
When the connection is secure, an LED located at the head of the DC connector lights up; an amber light lets you know that your notebook is charging, while a green light tells you that you have full charge. An AC lead is provided with the adapter for maximum lead length, while the AC wall adapter (also provided) gives you an even easier and more compact way to travel.
Designed to be the perfect travelling companion, the adapter has a clever design that allows the DC cable to be wound neatly around itself for easy cable storage.
This power adapter recharges the lithium polymer battery while the system is off, on or in sleep mode. It also powers the system if you choose to operate without a battery.
Compatible with MacBook Pro with Retina display.
Not sure if this is the right power adapter for your Mac?
See this article for more details about choosing the right one.
Knowing which specific Mac model you have is important. If you are running OS X Lion (10.7) or later, go to the "" menu at the top left of your screen, choose "About this Mac" then click the "More Info..." button. Your Mac model and generation will be displayed.

Suppliments-what do you use and where do you get it?
I am still dealing with a bit of a supply issue. It's not bad, nothing like what I dealt with last week. I am happy to report that today, baby was 100% BM, the entire day. I know I am making just barely enough for him, diaper output in great. I don't know about weight gain as we haven't been for a weight in a while...I might go to the BF support group at the hospital around the corner tomorrow, just to check.
Anyway, it's ENOUGH...but not quite enough for his desires, if that makes sense. He's a hungry growing boy and wants lots and lots lol. Plus, I want to get a real freezer stash, just in case. I have a total of 2 bags of 3.5oz each right now. I would really like an emergency supply in there. In case something, anything happens that I can't be there to feed him. Plus, I think increasing my supply will help with the AF supply dip that seems to happen each cycle.
Which means still pumping and taking supplements. I cannot keep up the agressive pumping schedule I had myself on last week, but I am pumping any time I am getting a chance. I had been taking fenugreek and blessed thistle, but am out again, because I only got a small batch since I wasn't sure if I would be able to continue.
SO, my questions:
What supplements do YOU take to increase supply?
Where do you get them?
How much are they?

Re: Suppliments-what do you use and where do you get it?
I eat oatmeal every morning and take just fenugreek (3 capsules a day, 3x a day). You should try to pump on the other side every time your baby nurses. That's the easiest way to build up a supply without adding in another 20 minutes of time for pumping separately.
How often are you pumping now? And for how long?
Also, are you sure your breast shields fit you properly? I just recently ordered smaller shields and am pumping 1/2 an ounce to an ounce more each time.

Re: Suppliments-what do you use and where do you get it?
I like making lactation cookies from online recipes. They usually contain flax seed, brewers yeast and oatmeal. They help me better than fenugreek, which made me really sweaty, syrup-smelling, and didn't seem to help me.

Vancouver satisfies appetites of all kinds
- Written by Deborah Stone
It's a destination with an incredible range of outdoor activities, cultural attractions, accommodations, restaurants and some of the most picturesque scenery imaginable.
Green spaces abound in the city, along with the natural beauty of mountain vistas and miles of coastal waterfront. As you stroll through the streets, you'll feel a palpable sense of energy and buzz that lends an element of excitement to the town.
You'll also note the cultural mosaic that comprises this diverse and exciting, cosmopolitan hub.
The varying ethnicities help to contribute to the city's highly touted culinary scene, which teems with award-winning restaurants and chefs.
One of the best ways to explore this gastronomy landscape is via Edible Canada's signature tour of colorful Granville Island Market.
It's a two-hour sensory adventure, billed as "sightseeing for your taste buds," with the best flavors of the region taking center stage.
As you walk through the bustling European style market, your guide will introduce you to a diverse array of vendors from green grocers and butchers to bakers, fishmongers, cheese specialists and chocolatiers.
There are more than 50 permanent vendors and a constantly rotating roster of farmers and culinary artisans, making Granville a true cook's treasure and a foodie's heaven.
First stop on our tour was the Granville Island Tea Company, boasting nearly 150 teas from all over the world.
Our guide, Jamie, explained about the differences between white, green and black tea, noting that it is the location of the leaves on the tea plant, as well as the harvesting time that is of prime importance.
We sampled a delightfully spiced Masala Chai that had me practically purring like a cat with a bowl of cream and then took turns smelling a variety of teas from a toasty rice flavored Genmaicha to a smoky Lapsang Souchong.
"This is a business based on love," said Jamie, "and owners Mark and his wife Deborah are passionate about tea. They've created quite a tea culture here with a devoted following of regulars."
She adds, "The hardest part of the experience is deciding which tea to taste!"
Next on our tour was The Stock Market, a company known for its hearty homemade soups, sauces, salad dressings and to my surprise, hot cereals.
We tried their signature seven grain with apple rhubarb compote on top – definitely a winner in my book.
At the next vendor, La Baguette & L'Echalote, the aroma made me swoon, as did the array of pastries and artisan breads.
We were given a dark chocolate pain au chocolat croissant to sample, which was light, flaky and melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
At Benton Brothers, a well-known cheese company specializing in small farm cheeses, owner Andrew Benton gave us a cube of Alpindon to try. I claimed this Alpine style summer cheese with its earthy tones and creamy texture my new favorite.
A stop at Zara's Italian Deli provided a lesson in olives with samples of Barese Nero (black) and Barese Verde (green).
Their meaty texture belies their mild and buttery taste with just a subtle hint of sweetness.
"Zara's olives are famous," noted Jamie, "as are their pastas, especially the handmade tortellini, which always sells out so quickly."
I was particularly enamored with the striped Raviolani, which looks exactly like ribbon candy.
One of my favorite stops was at Chocolatas, a chocolatier specializing in Belgian-style confections, where we nibbled at squares of dark pink grapefruit ganache and dark ganache flavored with wasabi, of all things!
On the savory side, there was Oyama Sausage, with its famed sausage cured with Granville Island sake and Okanagan red wine, and Seafood City, a thriving fish market featuring smoked salmon maple nuggets that were so sweet they could easily be mistaken for dessert.
Our last stop was at Lee's Donuts, a longtime vendor that consistently attracts crowds clamoring for its famed glazed donuts, especially when they're fresh out of the oven.
Head baker Alvin, who's been there forever, will tell you he loves his job.
"Every morning I wake up and go to work where I make people happy," he says with a big smile.
The tour ended at Edible Canada's bistro and retail store, where a few more samples awaited us, including birch syrup from the Cariboo and chocolate balsamic vinegar, made by Vancouver's own Dundarave Olive Company.
The market tour gave us a great introduction to Vancouver's food scene and helped set us up for forays to three unique restaurants: The Oakwood Canadian Bistro, Sanafir and Campagnolo, all recommendations from locals in the know.
The Oakwood is a casually hip little gem in Vancouver's Kitsilano neighborhood, where talented Executive Chef Mike Robbins crafts tasty, seasonally driven dishes inspired by locally sourced organic ingredients.
Opt to start with the fried octopus with bacon aioli and Japanese mustard spinach, followed by the albacore tuna and fennel salad or beets with smoked vanilla goat cheese.
For a bit of French Canadian fare, there's poutine (French fries with curds, gravy and smoked brisket) and in typical Canadian East Coast fashion, you'll find a fried egg adorning such entrees as branzino or sea bass.
Desserts of various combinations like milk chocolate ganache, rum infused bananas and walnut brittle are served up in cute little Mason jars.
Sanafir offers an entirely different experience with its flickering candles and Moroccan-inspired, sensual surroundings.
There are even dining "beds" on the upper level where couples can have a truly romantic meal.
The cuisine is based on the Silk Road with infusions of exotic flavors from North Africa, China, India and the Mediterranean.
Mezze plates, tapas, tagines and curries explode with spice and color under the deft hands of Executive Chef Ray Bear. Seafood takes center billing with offerings that range from Moroccan Mussel & Clams to Wild Salmon in coconut yellow curry.
Meat lovers, take heart, as there are plenty of options including the Egyptian Spiced Striploin, Lamb Tagine and Balgarbi Ribs.
Use the grilled Naan bread to sop up the juices.
Travel to the Eastside of town to find Campagnolo, a casual Italian restaurant that consistently earns rave reviews.
It's an unassuming place and not easy to find if you've never been in the area, especially if you're looking for prominent signage.
Inside, the décor is simple — wood and brick with exposed beams.
Start with the Crispy Ceci, a unique salad of chick peas that have been fried with chilies, mint and citrus, or opt for the Salumi platter made of the restaurant's own cured meat.
If it's pasta you want, you'll be more than satisfied with offerings such as potato gnocchi with spot prawns and Rigatoni Puttanesca with Humboldt squid.
But, if you're a pizza connoisseur, you're in excellent hands, as Campagnolo is known for its buttery, thin-crusted, simply adorned pies that will make you groan with pleasure, bite after heavenly bite.
Though food is a big deal in Vancouver, culture also gets high marks.
In summer, get your theater fix at Bard on the Beach, the city's highly touted professional Shakespeare festival that takes place on the waterfront in Vanier Park.
In its 23rd season, the festival, which is the largest of its kind in Western Canada, is a beloved season tradition for many Vancouverites.
It's famous for the high-caliber of its performances, as well as its eye-popping location.
The unique stage with its open-back tent allows the majestic northern mountains and Vancouver city views to function as the literal backdrop for its plays.
Each summer, four of the Bard's plays are produced. This season's lineup included "The Taming of the Shrew," "Macbeth," "The Merry Wives of Windsor" and "King John."
For adventure, head out of town a short way to Horseshoe Bay and hop on a sea safari at Sewell's Marina.
Your two-hour guided ride will take you around Howe Sound and into the Strait of Georgia for an eco-nature tour.
You'll find yourself racing beside steep cliffs, nosing into caves and viewing harbor seals at play, while catching glimpses of cormorants and majestic bald eagles soaring overhead.
Spectacular waterfront homes line the banks and hillsides, along with stands of striking arbutus trees.
Your craft is a high-speed, 30-foot rigid hull inflatable boat and you'll be well-equipped to handle the whipping wind and water spray while decked out in special Mustang Integrity suits.
And yes, they make you look and feel like the Pillsbury Doughboy!
Don't be surprised if your captain decides to suddenly do a series of doughnuts during the tour to jar you from your state of seeming complacency.
Ladies, the results are just as good as a microdermabrasion treatment, so you'll be able to save yourself a trip to the spa.
If your recreation tastes are tamer, take a stroll around 1,000-acre Stanley Park with its forested trails, sandy beaches and host of attractions including a collection of hand-carved totem poles and the renowned Vancouver Aquarium.
Allow some time for reflection at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Chinese Garden, a classical Chinese garden known for its traditional design.
It's a serene oasis in the midst of busy Chinatown. Know that you can easily satisfy all your appetites in Vancouver, but you'll still leave hungry for more of this dynamic city.

Friday, October 07, 2011 - Paul and Yuri - Raunchy Sex
Paul Fresh, who first came to us about 3 years ago recently decided that he was prepared to do guy-guy shoots. So we paired him with newcomer Yuri Bulakov for a Raunchy Duo. The scene, filmed on location, starts with Paul leading a blindfolded and cuffed Yuri into the room and pushing him down on his knees. Paul then sits down to enjoye a cigaratte and read the newspaper. But before he really does any reading he decides he needs a drink. Placing the rim of a glass in Yuri's mouth Paul opens a bottle and pours himself a drink. Which he duly despatches quite quickly and repeats the process for another, but Yuri is moving and spills the drink over his chest as it is being poured. Paul uses a foot to rub the drink over Yuri's body and after a little trouble pushing his toe into Yuri's mouth, to be sucked. After some toe sucking Paul standsa grabs Yuri's head and pushes it into his groin. Then he opens his pants releasing his cock, which needs a relieve itself. Making Yuri hold a large glass Paul proceeds to piss into it. It's a half liter glass and Paul almost fills it with a nice stream of piss. Taking the piss from Yuri Paul now pushes his cock into Yuri's mouth to be sucked. His big cock quickly gets very hard as Yuri sucks it. He grabs Yuri's hair and pulls him onto that cock, making him gag and salivate as he sucks. He then turns around and pushes his ass into Yuri's face, making him rim his hole. Paul decides that Yuri should be naked, so he strips him and then starts to slap at his chest and his cock. We can see that the cock is swelling as it is being slapped, and soon it is fully erect. Paul grabs it and starts wanking on it, while inducing his tongue into Yuri's ...
... more about Raunchy Sex with Paul and Yuri further in this newsletter
Our Coming Soon Set Preview
Two better looking guys you couldn't hope to meet. Pairing them up for this duo was a great idea as they look great together. We first encounter David as he is out walking, in the park and then down by the river. He seems to be looking for something, or someone, but hasn't found it yet. After searching in various places he eventually finds Artur, who surprises him as he looks. They waste no time in getting inside, where they can get to grips with each other. David removes Arturs shirt and they start kissing right away. As they do so David's shirt comes off too, and before long the pants are dropped too. As they kiss Artur's dick gets very hard indeed and David goes down and sucks on it. He certainly knows how to do it, taking that rock hard cock in his mouth to suck it and then to lick it too. He really enjoys the cock, lapping at it, sucking it and licking the balls too. Then David stands and his cock is hard too. Artur takes both dicks in his hand and wanks them together before kissing David again and then going down on his cock, to return the favor. The guys move to the sofa for a 69, with Artur on top, exposing his nice hairy ass as David sucks his cock. Artur thens stands so he can fuck his cock into David's mouth, before turning around and sitting his ass on his face fro some rimming. David is really horny for Artur's cock though and sits on it and starts to rife it. He really rides it well, sitting all the way down on it, so the cock is as deep as it can go. He rides that dick so well. Next the guys change to doggy style and Artur fucks that ass real hard, with David feeling every thrust, before another change, to missionary. As Artur is fucking him David wanks himself and very soon he blows a real nice load. Artur moves up and drops a real creamy load over David's chest and David takes the cock in his mouth to suck it dry. Finally the guys stand and kiss each other, with long, sensual kisses bringing the scene to a very nice end. Two lovely looking guys in a very good scene.
You can also watch my Vlog for this Newsletter by clicking the video above or over at the Blog:
I should write something about the passing of Steve Jobs. He was a difficult person. They say, All Saints Are Difficult People. I really resented his statement, 'we don't want to see porn on any of the iOS devices, and added something like 'No one wants to see that on any of our devices.' Well, speak for yourself. I understand that he was committed to animated movies for kids through Pixar. But I've always hated censorship. After he returned to Apple, they marketed some 'insanely great' products. They also released a few real losers. That's good because, you have to be willing to fail.
I really did not like the fact that Jobs excluded Adobe Flash from the iPad for no valid reason. If it caused a few crashes, well, let the iPad owner make the decision. Then came the Gizmodo incident, where they got some photos of a prototype iPhone, and Apple turned it into a criminal matter. Gizmodo handled the situation stupidly, but still. Then came another incident where a prototype went missing. Through GPS Apple's private detectives thought they traced the missing phone to a house in San Francisco. Apple's private eyes convinced three local police officers to go to the house with them, flash their badges. The home owner was left with the impression that the private dicks were actual cops. The Apple detectives searched the guy's house, while the real police waited in the yard. The guy thought he consented to a police search. This conduct was IMHO not only Big Brother, but boarder line criminal as the Apple detectives came very close to the edge if not crossing over of impersonating police officers.
I believe I could start an iPod museum. I've owned lots of them up through the last iPod Photo. After that Apple degraded the amplifier in order to add more bells and whistles. I also started our guys editing with Mac and Final Cut Pro. After we hired editors, I personally switched to the PC. I'm ashamed to admit, to save money. I got by with a PC for about ten years. When my last one started to go, I threw in the towel and decided to pay the Mac premium. I'm very glad I did and am sure I'll never switch back to PC. The Mac computer is fantastic. I also bought an iPad, which I loved at first. I loved doing tricks to do things with the iPad that Mr. Jobs didn't allow. After while, that became very boring, and I stuck the iPad on a shelf. When the new MacBook Air came along, I jumped and bought one. It will do EVERYTHING. I gave the iPad to Boris and the guys. They love it for showing porn to the models during shoots. It's much more convenient than using DVDs.
I do hope Apple continues to make some insanely great products. I want to keep using Mac computers for the rest of my career. The new CEO of Apple is widely believed to be gay. He hasn't denied it. That doesn't mean they will take a less aggressive stance against porn. Personally, I think they should just shut up about it. I don't believe that Bill Gates says he doesn't want to see porn on Windows devices.
I do believe we own a lot to Mr. Jobs. He certainly has induced to world to up it's game. I'd say all of the smart phones we see nowadays are based on the iPhone. If that hadn't come along, we'd all still probably be using clunkers.
Today, I posted Part Four of my First Looks at the 2011 Wank in the Woods. This is the barbeque sequence. Two more parts to go.
It's a little bit difficult today choosing between Zoran Dragonic (from Croatia) and Tomas Kavur. All things considered, I'll go with Tomas

Iron Country
Share this:
Send this via e-mail
WDSE•WRPT's Iron Country is an epic 12-hour documentary series telling the story of Minnesota's three Iron Ranges and the people who make this region their home. Hosted and written by well known Iron Range historian Marvin Lamppa of Babbitt, the series begins with the geological formation of the state's three iron ranges and continues through the regions pre-history and history.
We look at the Native American people who call Iron Country their home and move through eras which include the fur trade, exploration, statehood, white settlement, introduction of the timber industry, mineral exploration, gold rush, early mining, railroad development, boom towns, company towns, mine development, labor organization, strikes, town development and much more…ending with the development of the taconite industry.
This sweeping series is the definitive television history of the Iron Range created by WDSE•WRPT's producer/director Juli Kellner and photographer Ted Pellman. This program was made possible, in part, by an IRRRB matching grant and the financial support of area businesses.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – For the second year in a row, the MIT women's volleyball team saw three players earn Capital One Academic All-District honors as announced by the College Sports Information Directors of America on Thursday. Senior Katie Spielbauer (Lakeview, Mich.) and junior Kristine Bunker (Falmouth, Mass.) received their second selection while junior Sharon Hao (San Jose, Calif.) was tabbed for the first time. The trio, which accounts for half of the all-district honorees, will represent the Engineers on the national ballot and will contend for Academic All-America honors to be voted on later this month.
An AVCA All-New England selection, Spielbauer became the first libero in the history of the NEWMAC to be selected Athlete of the Year while earning her second straight first-team all-conference selection. She leads the NEWMAC in digs (647) and digs per set (5.26) while ranking second in aces (64) and third in aces per set (0.52). She currently stands second in the MIT recordbook for career digs with 1,966 and is seventh in career aces with 185. Majoring in electrical engineering with a concentration in Spanish, Spielbauer is a three-time NEWMAC Academic All-Conference honoree. She completed an electrical engineering internship at the Fermi 2 Nuclear Power Plant run by Detroit Edison and conducted research at the University of Michigan Cancer Center in esophageal adenocarcinoma.
Bunker, the 2012 NEWMAC Tournament Most Outstanding Player was also named to the NEWMAC all-conference first team. She currently ranks 13th in the nation in hitting percentage (.371) and is fourth in the NEWMAC in blocks (84). Majoring in mechanical engineering with a minor in materials science engineering, Bunker interned at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution where she processed and analyzed data, developed data collecting platforms, and worked with the platforms in the field. She also studied in the MIT IDC Lab working with the Future of Manufacturing. A member of the Society of Women Engineers and the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, Bunker serves as the MIT American Society of Mechanical Engineers publicity chair.
A two-time NEWMAC academic all-conference pick, Hao ranks third on the team in aces (41) and fourth in digs (224). An electrical engineering and computer science major, she was a software engineer intern at Facebook where she worked on the iPhone app, Facebook Camera. Hao also completed an internship with WeaverMobile, a startup that makes iPhone applications.

Fetal alcohol syndrome
Fetal alcohol syndrome is growth, mental, and physical problems that may occur in a baby when a mother drinks alcohol during pregnancy.
See also:
Alternative Names
Alcohol in pregnancy; Drinking alcohol during pregnancy; Alcohol-related birth defects; Fetal alcohol effects; FAS
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Using or abusing alcohol during pregnancy can cause the same risks as using alcohol in general. However, it poses extra risks to the unborn baby. When a pregnant woman drinks alcohol, it easily passes across the placenta to the fetus. Because of this, drinking alcohol can harm the baby's development.
A pregnant woman who drinks any amount of alcohol is at risk for having a child with fetal alcohol syndrome. No "safe" level of alcohol use during pregnancy has been established. Larger amounts of alcohol appear to increase the problems. Binge drinking is more harmful than drinking small amounts of alcohol.
Timing of alcohol use during pregnancy is also important. Alcohol use appears to be the most harmful during the first 3 months of pregnancy; however, drinking alcohol any time during pregnancy can be harmful.
A baby with fetal alcohol syndrome may have the following symptoms:
- Poor growth while the baby is in the womb and after birth
- Decreased muscle tone and poor coordination
- Delayed development and problems in three or more major areas: thinking, speech, movement, or social skills
- Heart defects such as
ventricular septal defect (VSD)or atrial septal defect (ASD)
- Problems with the face, including:
- Narrow, small eyes with large
epicanthal folds
- Small head
- Small upper jaw
- Smooth groove in upper lip
- Smooth and thin upper lip
- Narrow, small eyes with large
Signs and tests
A physical exam of the baby may show a
Tests include:
- Blood alcohol level in pregnant women who show signs of being drunk (intoxicated)
- Brain imaging studies (CT or MRI) after the child is born
Pregnancy ultrasound
See also:
Women who are pregnant or who are trying to get pregnant should avoid drinking any amount of alcohol. Pregnant women with alcoholism should join an alcohol abuse rehabilitation program and be checked closely by a health care provider throughout pregnancy.
Support Groups
The following organizations may offer assistance:
- National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependency --
- National Drug and Alcohol Treatment Referral Routing Service -- 1-800-662-4357
See also:
Expectations (prognosis)
The outcome for infants with fetal alcohol syndrome varies. Almost none of these babies have normal brain development.
Infants and children with fetal alcohol syndrome have many different problems, which can be difficult to manage. Children do best if they are diagnosed early and referred to a team of health care providers who can work on educational and behavioral strategies that fit the child's needs.
Drinking alcohol during pregnancy may result in:
Miscarriageor stillbirth
- Premature delivery
Complications seen in the infant may include:
- Abnormal heart structure
- Behavior problems
- Infant death
- Mental retardation
- Problems in the structure of the head, eyes, nose, or mouth
- Poor growth before birth
- Slow growth and poor coordination after birth
Calling your health care provider
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you are drinking alcohol regularly or heavily, and are finding it difficult to cut back or stop. Also, call if you are drinking alcohol in any amount while you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant.
Avoiding alcohol during pregnancy prevents fetal alcohol syndrome. Counseling can help women who have already had a child with fetal alcohol syndrome.
Sexually active women who drink heavily should use birth control and control their drinking behaviors, or stop using alcohol before trying to get pregnant.

David Strickland '13
"My high school biology teacher inspired me to see all the life that surrounds us and that is us. He also developed my interest in teaching," he says. "When I came to Clarkson, the biology program completed those ideals perfectly for me."
One thing that has changed? His interest in genetics, a subset of the biology program, which he stumbled upon during his freshman year.
He explains, "The scheduling in the biology program is flexible enough that I can take whatever biology and chemistry classes interest me the most. The field of genetics became my primary interest when I took a genetics course early in my college career."
David, a PennYan, N.Y. native, recently began studying genetics in the lab with Prof. Craig Woodworth on a project that he will work on until graduation. He's looking at the E6 and E7 genes of human papillomavirus (HPV) and investigating how alternative splicing of these genes produces different proteins that may be found in varied concentrations throughout the ectocervix in women.
During his sophomore year, David also worked with Woodworth on a similar research project funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) investigating defensins, small proteins that fight off bacteria and viruses like HPV. "I remember meeting Prof. Woodworth freshman year and immediately thinking, 'I want to work for this guy!' So I asked for a position after taking genetics with him and I've been living in the lab ever since."
And while David might live in the lab, he also finds time to enjoy extracurricular activities at Clarkson, such as the Tri Beta Honor Society, a club for students in biology that helps them meet faculty, connect with their peers, and discuss career, internship and research opportunities. He's also part of Revolutionary Aerospace Systems Concepts – Academic Linkage, otherwise known as RASC-AL, a SPEED (Student Projects for Engineering Experience & Design) team affiliated with NASA.
"Our team develops a theoretical space mission each year then travels to Florida to compete at the national level with other universities. In the past we've developed a manned mission to Mars and this year we're working on the construction of a moon base," he says. "Being the only biology major on the team, I am working on the human aspect of a lunar settlement and asking questions like, 'How are we going to keep those people alive?'"
After graduation, David plans on attending graduate school to earn a Ph.D. in a field related to genetics so that he can go on to become a university professor and focus on research and teaching.
Overall, knowing his future major didn't mean knowing which university was the right one, but David is sure he made the right choice. "Clarkson is a perfect fit for me," he says. "I love walking down a hall and overhearing students discussing math problems or listening to my roommates argue over thermodynamics. The University fosters a learning environment and provides opportunities for underclassmen that I have yet to see matched at another school."

At Tokyo's Global Festa, Young People Share Their Views on Environment, Ending Poverty
Available in Français [1], Español [2]
On a rainy Sunday afternoon, a group of young people gathered near the World Bank's booth at the 2012 Global Festa in Tokyo's Hibiya Park. They shared their views on what it will take to end poverty, adding to hundreds of postcards dotting a wall at the exhibit.
The postcards are part of a global conversation [3] launched by the World Bank in September centered around questions like "what will it take to end poverty" or "what will it take so all people have access to education?"
The Bank's booth was one among many at Japan's Global Festa [4], an annual event for youth aimed at deepening understanding and awareness of international development issues. This year's event took place as leaders and development experts gather in Tokyo for the IMF-World Bank 2012 Annual Meetings. [5]
The theme of the 2012 Global Festa was Think Global, Think Green, Change the World, Make the Future.
"I recycle and use electronic vehicles," said Masumi Ito, a 14-year-old high school student, about what she does to be environmentally aware.
With more than 100 exhibition booths—primarily of non-governmental organizations—the park was filled with information and energy. Masaki Matsukawa, a graduate student at Tokyo University, and a volunteer at the World Bank booth, said he learned more about development issues and enjoyed volunteering and meeting hundreds of people.
At the center of the park, many visitors wrote messages for victims of Japan's 2011 earthquake and tsunami disaster on heart-shaped pieces of paper.
The World Bank Group and the Japanese Government co-organized an outdoor stage event on October 6 called "21st Century International Cooperation: World Bank and Japan." The event offered ideas about the nature of international cooperation and how actors such as the World Bank play a role in international development.
At the event, Natsuki Yasuda, a Japanese photo journalist, showed her photos from Tohoku, an area of Japan hit by the earthquake in March 2011. It was followed by a panel discussion about how youth can work with large organizations like the World Bank.
Other organizations such as the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA), International Organization for Migration (IOM), and the Asian Development Bank (ADB), were among the organizations at the event.
Last year, the Global Festa had more than 100,000 visitors, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Japan, which is also an organizer of the event.

Get Ready For The Next Entertainment Industry 'Solution' To Content Distribution: Kinder, Gentler DRM
from the this-is-a-problem-that-doesn't-exist dept
While I think it's great that the industry is finally realizing that locking content to a single device is something of a non-starter, I'm still trying to figure out what consumer problem this solves. Allowing content on multiples devices could already be done -- just without DRM. So this isn't adding any value to consumers. Just to the industry that, falsely, still thinks it needs some kind of DRM.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) -- For many photographers, it's their dream shot. On August 21st, a solar eclipse will stretch from Oregon to South Carolina at a whopping 1,500 miles per hour.
This will be a highly documented event, but there are a few things you'll want to do first if you want to capture the event.
If you're looking to get really good pictures, you'll need a more powerful zoom lens. You'll also need a special lens for your camera to capture the eclipse.
Beforehand, you should set up a tripod and make sure you're comfortable with some of the manual settings on your camera.
Even with the best preparation, the final key is timing. In the path of totality, you'll only have about two and half minutes to snap a photo of the eclipse.
And remember, solar eclipse glasses are a must-have. They're not the most stylish, but they will keep your eyes safe.

Rudi Sebastian
Lignano IAbout this photograph
His working method has become increasingly conceptual and his pictorial language increasingly unique. Influenced by late-period impressionism, by the modern classical period and classical and contemporary music, he has distanced himself increasingly from landscape photography with its strict and restrictive aesthetic rules, such as for instance the golden rule and central perspective. Today, he expresses himself with works that are clearly and freely worked out within the space and thus stands out on the art market. For 2013, a unique exhibition dedicated to his career will be organised in Wiesbaden.Read more Read less

In his photographic work, Rudi Sebastian deals with the question of individuality with respect to the overwhelming aspects of natural phenomena. However, his visual concept does not limit itself to the latter, but also presents subjects close to nature, such as, for instance, the sailboats of his work 'Barcolana in 2012' or 'Lignano', which show the situation of the individual holidaymaker in a succession of series shot on the Adriatic coast.Rudi Sebastian was born in 1960, he studied design communication in Wiesbaden from 1978 to 1983. Alongside his work in his own advertising agency, he devoted himself with great success to photographing landscapes and regularly published in renowned magazines such as 'Holiday', 'Traveller's World' and 'Dines Club Magazine'. Major photography agencies such as 'Plainpicture' and 'Getty Images' have collaborated with him.

Adopting healthy skin habits in 2013 could save your life. Thousands of people in the United States die each year from skin cancer, a highly preventable and treatable disease. Skin cancer can affect anyone, regardless of age or skin color, which is why making skin health a priority should be on everyone�s list of New Year�s Resolutions.
Adopting healthy skin habits in 2013 could save your life. Thousands of people in the United States die each year from skin cancer, a highly preventable and treatable disease. Skin cancer can affect anyone, regardless of age or skin color, which is why making skin health a priority should be on everyone�s list of New Year�s Resolutions.
With an easy to remember acronym, S.K.I.N., The Skin Cancer Foundation is proposing four simple steps for keeping skin cancer prevention and skin health top of mind in 2013 and beyond: Skip the tanning bed, Keep up with skin exams, Ignore the myths, and Never skimp on sun protection.
Skip the tanning bed
New research findings reveal that just one indoor UV tanning session increases the risk of melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer, by 20 percent, and each additional session during the same year boosts the risk almost another 2 percent. Each year in the United States more than 9,000 people die of melanoma. Overall, indoor UV tanners are 74 percent more likely to develop melanoma than those who have never tanned indoors, and those who begin tanning before the age of 35 increase their melanoma risk by almost 90 percent.
Keep up with skin exams
Skin cancers found and removed early are almost always curable. The five-year survival rate for patients whose melanoma is detected early, before the tumor has penetrated the skin, is about 98 percent. The survival rate falls significantly when the disease has the chance to metastasize (spread) throughout the body. Check your skin from head-to-toe each month, and visit a dermatologist annually for a professional skin exam. If you notice any change in an existing mole or discover a new one that looks suspicious, see a physician immediately. Visit SkinCancer.org to download a guide to self-exams and find a local dermatologist with the Foundation�s Physician Finder.
Ignore the myths (and learn the facts)
There are many misconceptions surrounding skin health, particularly when it comes to skin cancer and sun protection. For example, spending time outdoors without sun protection is not the best way to obtain vitamin D; doing so will increase your risk of skin cancers, premature skin aging and a weakened immune system. Vitamin D can be acquired safely through diet and supplements.
Another common myth is that you need sun protection only on sunny days. The intensity of the sun�s UV rays is not simply linked to air temperature, and while bright, hot, sunny days always pose UV risks, you can damage your skin on cold or cloudy days as well. This is because even when it�s overcast, between 50 and 80 percent of UV rays penetrate the clouds to reach the skin.
Never skimp on sun protection (even indoors)
The Foundation recommends adopting a complete sun-protection regimen: cover up with protective clothing (including wide-brimmed hats and UV-blocking sunglasses), seek shade between 10 AM and 4 PM, and wear sunscreen every day. Because UVA radiation can pass through glass, be mindful of sun protection even while at home and in the car. Consider installing window film, which can block almost 100 percent of UVA radiation from penetrating glass. For more information, please visit SkinCancer.org.
About The Skin Cancer Foundation
The Skin Cancer Foundation is the only global organization solely devoted to the prevention, early detection and treatment of skin cancer. The mission of the Foundation is to decrease the incidence of skin cancer through public and professional education and research. For more information, visit SkinCancer.org.

NL Capsules
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Barry Zito pitched another gem against the St. Louis Cardinals, leading the San Francisco Giants to a 1-0 victory in their home opener Friday.
The Giants celebrated their latest World Series title throughout the day. Of course, it was Zito who saved San Francisco's season by beating the Cardinals 5-0 last fall in Game 5 of the NL championship series.
This time, Zito outdueled Jake Westbrook (0-1) in his season debut. The lefty also had a key sacrifice bunt that led to San Francisco's run in the fourth, when Angel Pagan drew a bases-loaded walk.
The Giants won their 15th straight game with Zito on the mound, including the postseason. He hasn't lost since Aug. 2 against the New York Mets.
Zito (1-0) blanked the Cardinals on three hits through the seventh. San Francisco's starters have gone 26 innings without allowing an earned run so far.
Jeremy Affeldt pitched a 1-2-3 eighth and Sergio Romo closed out the three-hitter with a clean ninth for his third save.
Fresh off San Francisco's second title in three years, manager Bruce Bochy carried the World Series trophy out from an entrance in center field as the first Giant announced to the sellout crowd of 41,581.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Zack Greinke pitched two-hit ball into the seventh inning of his splendid Dodgers debut against Pittsburgh.
Andre Ethier homered and Los Angeles got consecutive RBI doubles from Matt Kemp and Adrian Gonzalez. Greinke, who signed a $147 million, six-year contract to join the Dodgers during the offseason, struck out six and did not walk a batter in 6 1-3 innings.
Greinke (1-0) was on a limited pitch count after throwing only 13 innings during spring training, but he made his 92 pitches count. He yielded just a two-out single to Garrett Jones in the second inning and a one-out single to Andrew McCutchen in the seventh.
Offensively for the Dodgers, Ethier hit his first home run of the season, Kemp got his first hit (his RBI double) and Gonzalez had his first RBI. All three hits came against Pirates starter Jonathan Sanchez (0-1).
Brandon League worked the ninth for his first save, completing the two-hitter.
CINCINNATI (AP) — Todd Frazier and Zack Cozart each hit two of Cincinnati's six home runs, including a grand slam by pinch-hitter Xavier Paul, as the Reds sent Washington to its first loss of the season.
It was the Nationals' most lopsided loss since baseball returned to Washington in 2005, topping a 15-1 defeat to Detroit on June 19, 2007, according to STATS. Washington had been the last major league team without a loss this season.
Dan Haren (0-1) had a rough time in his Nationals debut, giving up four homers and six runs in four innings.
Homer Bailey (1-0) allowed two hits in six scoreless innings. The right-hander hasn't allowed a run in his last 19 regular-season innings, a streak that includes his no-hitter in Pittsburgh on Sept. 28.
ATLANTA (AP) — Justin Upton hit his third homer in four games and Mike Minor pitched into the eighth inning to help Atlanta beat Chicago.
Juan Francisco had a two-run single and Minor (1-0) won his first start of the season, allowing one run and five hits in 7 1-3 innings. He walked none and struck out seven.
Eric O'Flaherty got two outs in the eighth and Craig Kimbrel threw eight pitches in a perfect ninth for his second save.
Making his Cubs debut, Scott Feldman (0-1) threw two wild pitches, hit a batter and had a fielding error when he missed the bag in an attempt to cover first base. Feldman gave up four runs, five hits and four walks in 4 2-3 innings.
Upton also had a sacrifice fly.
NEW YORK (AP) — Alex Sanabia won for the first time in more than two years and Miami gave Mike Redmond his first victory as a major league manager by beating New York.
The Marlins began the day 0-3 and were the only team in the majors without a win.
Sanabia (1-0) had been absent from the majors since late in the 2011 season. He pitched six shutout innings, working around six hits, three walks and a hit batter.
Miami took advantage of shortstop Ruben Tejada's error to score five runs in the seventh for a 6-0 lead. The Mets rallied and brought the potential tying run to the plate a couple of times, but couldn't catch the Marlins.
Greg Dobbs' homer off Jeremy Hefner (0-1) leading off the second gave the Marlins their first lead of the season — and only their second run overall. Miami was 1 for 20 with runners in scoring position before Placido Polanco's two-run single in the seventh.
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Wade Miley and Kyle Lohse were locked in a pitching duel through six innings before Arizona spoiled Lohse's debut with Milwaukee by scoring two runs on a wild pitch from reliever Michael Gonzalez in the seventh.
Lohse allowed five hits and struck out six. Miley (1-0) gave up five hits and struck out eight, one shy of his career high.
The Diamondbacks went ahead on a hit, three walks, a sacrifice bunt and Gonzalez's errant pitch.
J.J. Putz pitched the ninth for his first save.
Burke Badenhop (0-1) took the loss.
DENVER (AP) — Wilin Rosario and Dexter Fowler homered to back Jeff Francis as Colorado beat San Diego in a festive home opener at Coors Field.
Francis (1-0) scattered five hits over six sharp innings. The soft-throwing lefty nearly became the first Rockies starter to eclipse the 100-pitch mark in 106 games, but was pulled after striking out Nick Hundley on his 97th offering to finish the sixth.
Rafael Betancourt pitched a scoreless ninth for his second save. Troy Tulowitzki broke a tie with a two-run double in the third.
Jason Marquis (0-1) was cruising along early before a costly error by shortstop Everth Cabrera paved the way to a three-run third for the Rockies. Marquis lasted six innings and gave up five runs, two earned.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Alex Gordon and Chris Getz each hit a bases-loaded triple, and Kansas City rallied to spoil Philadelphia's home opener.
The interleague matchup was a rare one between teams that first met in the 1980 World Series — the Royals' only other visit to Philadelphia came in 2004.
After getting a total of 17 hits in their first three games against the Chicago White Sox, the Royals had 19 against the Phillies. Eric Hosmer was 4 for 5 with three RBIs, and the Royals overcame a 4-0 deficit to surge past Kyle Kendrick (0-1) and the Phillies
Domonic Brown and Erik Kratz hit solo homers for the Phillies, who are off to a 1-3 start.
Bruce Chen (1-0) struck out two in a perfect fifth in relief of Wade Davis to earn the win. Davis allowed four runs and nine hits in four innings in his first start for Kansas City.
Four Royals relievers combined to toss five hitless innings.
Hall of Famers Mike Schmidt and George Brett, rivals when the Phillies beat the Royals to win their first championship 33 years ago, threw out the first pitches.

When Your Child Was in the Hospital
Your child had surgery to repair a heart defect. If your child had open-heart surgery, an incision was made through their breastbone or the side of your childs chest. The child also may have been put on a heart-lung bypass machine during surgery.
After the surgery, your child probably stayed in the intensive care unit and then in another part of the hospital.
What to Expect at Home
Your child will need at least 3 or 4 more weeks at home to recover. For larger surgeries, recovery may take 6 to 8 weeks. Talk with your childs doctor about when your child can return to school, daycare, or participate in sports.
Pain after surgery is normal. There may be more pain after closed-heart surgery, compared to open-heart surgery. This is because nerves may have been irritated or cut. Usually, the pain decreases after the second day and con sometimes be managed with acetaminophen (Tylenol).
Many children behave differently after heart surgery. They may be clingy, irritable, wet the bed, or cry. They may do these things even if they were not doing them before their surgery. Support your child through this time, and slowly begin to set the limits that were in place before the surgery.
If your child is an infant, try not to let them cry for too long for the first 3- 4 weeks. Help keep them calm by staying calm yourself. When lifting your child, support both their head and bottom for the first 4- 6 weeks.
Toddlers and older children will often stop any activity if they become tired.
The doctor or nurse will tell you when it is okay for your child to return to school or daycare.
- Most often, the first few weeks after surgery should be a time to rest.
- After the first follow-up visit, the doctor will tell you what the child can do.
For the first 4 weeks after surgery, your child should not do any activity where there is a chance they could fall or take a blow to the chest. Your child also should avoid bicycle or skateboard riding, roller skating, swimming, and all contact sports until the childs doctor says its okay.
If your child has an incision through the breastbone, you must be careful how they use their arms and upper body for the first 6- 8 weeks:
- Do not pull or lift the child by their arms. Scoop them up instead.
- Your child should not do any activities that involve pulling or pushing their arms.
- Try to keep your child from lifting their arms above their head.
- Your child should not lift anything heavier than 5 pounds.
Keep a close eye on your child?s diet to make sure they get enough calories to heal and grow.
After heart surgery, most babies and infants (younger than 12 to 15 months) can take as much formula or breast milk as they want. Sometimes the doctor may want your baby not to drink too much formula or breast milk. Ask your child?s doctor any other questions about your childs nutrition.
Limit feeding time to around 30 minutes. Your child?s doctor or nurse will tell you how to add extra calories to formula if it is necessary.
Toddlers and older children should be given a regular, healthy diet. The doctor or nurse will tell you how to improve the childs diet after surgery.
Wound Care
Your health care providers will instruct you on how to care for the incisions. Look at the wound for signs of infection, which are redness, swelling, and drainage.
Your child should take only a shower or a sponge bath until your health care provider says its okay. Their Steri-Strips should NOT soak in the water. Steri-Strips will begin to peel off after the first week. It is okay to remove them when they start to peel off.
For as long as the scar looks pink, make sure it is covered with clothing or a bandage when your child is in the sun.
Ask your child?s doctor before getting any immunizations for 2 - 3 months after surgery. Afterward, your child should have a flu shot every year.
Many children who have had heart surgery must take antibiotics before, and sometimes after, having any dental work. Make sure you have clear instructions from your child?s heart doctor when the child needs antibiotics. It is still very important to have your childs teeth cleaned regularly.
Your child may need to take medicine when they are sent home. These may include diuretics (water pills) and other heart medicines. Be sure to follow the correct dosage. Follow up with your doctor 1 - 2 weeks after the child leaves the hospital or the as instructed.
When to Call the Doctor
Call the doctor if your child has:
- Fever, nausea, or vomiting
- Chest pain, or other pain
- Redness, swelling, or drainage from the wound
- Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
- Puffy eyes or face
- Tiredness all the time
- Bluish or grayish skin
- Dizziness, fainting, or heart palpitations
- Feeding problems or reduced appetite

MALDEF WORKS IN D.C. COURT TO HALT RESTRICTIVE VOTER ID LAW THAT DISENFRANCHISES LATINO VOTERSTrial Begins This Week as MALDEF Attorneys Invoke Voter Rights Act
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Representing a coalition of community partners, MALDEF intervened in a federal lawsuit between Texas and the United States over Texas's passage of a discriminatory voter identification law that would keep minorities and others from exercising their right to vote.
According to the section 5 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Texas is one of 16 states required to receive federal approval before changing voter laws because of the State's history of discriminating against minorities at the polls.
The lawsuit by Texas seeks permission from the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. to impose identification procedures that discriminate against Latinos in Texas.
MALDEF has intervened to give a voice to two, 18-year-old Latina women who are registered to vote in Texas, but who lack the photo identification required under Texas's new law and so would not be able to exercise their right to vote if Texas's law is upheld. MALDEF also represents two organizations that conduct voter registration and education campaigns, Southwest Voter Registration Education Project and Mi Familia Vota Education Fund, who are aware through their outreach of the disproportionate impact Texas's voter identification law would have on the Latino community.
At trial this week in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, MALDEF Senior Litigator, Jorge Sanchez and MALDEF Legislative Staff Attorney, Luis Figueroa are representing the two Latina voters, Southwest Voter Registration Education Project and Mi Familia Vota Education Fund.
Luis Figueroa stated, "The Texas Legislature overreached in an attempt to find a solution to a nonexistent problem. Thankfully the Voting Rights Act protects minority voters like our two young Latina voters from discriminatory laws like SB 14."
Earlier this year, the U.S. Department of Justice blocked Texas' Voter ID law on the grounds that the law disproportionately harms Latino voters. MALDEF submitted a letter to the Department of Justice opposing pre-clearance of Texas' law.
Thomas A. Saenz stated, "In a time when we should be working to expand the franchise, Texas has enacted a law to deny some citizens the right to vote. MALDEF is proud to be working to stop this regressive measure."
With the current lawsuit, Texas challenges the determination made by the U.S. Department of Justice. If Texas is successful before the U.S. District Court, Texas's new law and its voter identification requirements will be in place for the 2012 elections.
Founded in 1968, MALDEF is the nation's leading Latino legal civil rights organization. Often described as the "law firm of the Latino community," MALDEF promotes social change through advocacy, communications, community education, and litigation in the areas of education, employment, immigrant rights, and political access.

My backup device is a USB 2.0 250 MB Iomega Hard Drive.I'd like to put
it in my garage, requiring about 20 to 25 feet of wire. The official
USB specs say 5 meters max; if further use a hub/repeater.
I'm wondering how realistic the 5 meter spec is. I recall that parallel
printer cables were supposed to be limited to 10 feet or so; 75 foot
cables worked just fine. Same thing with the specs for RS-232 cables.
Does anyone have any real world experience with long USB 2.0 cables?
I'm thinking of building mine using unshielded CAT5 cable, one twisted
pair for power, another for data. Wise? foolish?

History and Old Stuff...
When we look back at pioneer days on the prairie, it's easy to imagine the lives of the settlers as more idyllic than most actually were.
We've all watched "Little House On the Prairie," and many of us have read the Laura Ingalls Wilder books! The world would be a poorer place without the wonderful stories of her childhood that Laura recorded for us. She truthfully recorded many of the difficulties and dangers that her family faced, and she wrote with great good cheer and a determined optimism. I don't doubt that her family had that attitude and that it helped them to survive many hardships, but it gives a rosy hue to the picture that Laura paints.
Willa Cather wrote realistically about the grim circumstances some homesteaders found themselves in. In her stories about Nebraska, she noted that many were ill-suited for life on the raw prairie. Some came from cities and had no experience at all with farming. They knew nothing about plants and animals. Others lacked the financial resources and emotional strength to hang on through droughts, grasshopper attacks, tornados, blizzards and prairie fires.
Here is a vignette of one woman's life from Cather's short story, "A Wagner Matinée"
My Aunt Georgiana had been a music teacher at the Boston Conservatory, somewhere back in the latter sixties. One summer, while visiting in the little village among the Green Mountains where her ancestors had dwelt for generations, she had kindled the callow fancy of the most idle and shiftless of all the village lads, and had conceived for this Howard Carpenter one of those extravagant passions which a handsome country boy of twenty-one sometimes inspires in an angular, spectacled woman of thirty. When she returned to her duties in Boston, Howard followed her, and the upshot of this inexplicable infatuation was that she eloped with him, eluding the reproaches of her family and the criticisms of her friends by going with him to the Nebraska frontier. Carpenter, who, of course, had no money, had taken a homestead in Red Willow County, fifty miles from the railroad. There they had measured off their quarter section themselves by driving across the prairie in a wagon, to the wheel of which they had tied a red cotton handkerchief, and counting off its revolutions. They built a dugout in the red hillside, one of those cave dwellings whose inmates so often reverted to primitive conditions. Their water they got from the lagoons where the buffalo drank, and their slender stock of provisions was always at the mercy of bands of roving Indians. For thirty years my aunt had not been further than fifty miles from the homestead.
Quoted from "A Wagner Matinée" by Willa Cather. Originally published in Everybody's Magazine in 1904.
"A Wagner Matinée", source of the quotation above, is the story of a woman and her nephew. He was brought up as a rough homestead boy, though he learned Latin and music under his aunt's care and training. As an adult, he goes to the city and becomes a suave and polished gentleman (on the surface at least). His aunt has undergone an opposite transformation, from a talented lady musician to an overworked prairie pioneer and farm wife. Both aunt and nephew have opportunity at the matinée to recall and marvel at their former and current lives.
It's a poignant and touching look at a relationship, and I found myself identifying to an extent with the nephew, a person who left the homestead and went far away. I'm sure the nephew is a representation of Willa Cather herself. She went to New York City and became a successful editor and writer, but she could never forget where she was from -- Red Cloud, Nebraska, was part of her. She knew it deeply. That's what makes her stories so powerful and authentic, even 100 years later.
"A Wagner Matinée" is also a look at the darker side of the homestead experience. Loss and sacrifice are part of the great story of America's homesteaders. I pay lip service to that fact often, but I was still surprised at the bleakness I saw and felt as I was drawn into this story.
I took my Mennonite neighbor to the chiropractor today. While I was waiting, I read a couple of Willa Cather stories. I have been thinking about this one ever since.

The series bega in 2007 and included titles ranging from The Plain Janes and Janes In Love, which followed around an art-obsessed group of cool misfits, to Water Baby, a graphic novel about a punky surfer babe who had her leg bit off by a shark. Most of the titles were under $10, a steal in the pricey Western graphic novel market but on par with the prices of girl-focused mangas like Paradise Kiss.

Aereo To Supreme Court: Yes, Please Review The Ruling In Which We Trounced The TV Broadcasters
from the let-them-know-it-was-correct dept
While it's an unusual move, there are a few good reasons for it. The first, as Aereo notes in its brief, is the broadcasters have made it abundantly clear that they're going to try to sue Aereo in any jurisdiction it launches service in, hoping to both bleed the company dry of funds and, the broadcasters hope, to find some court somewhere that will rule against Aereo. Getting the case to the Supreme Court now could effectively kill that strategy for the broadcasters. Second, and somewhat more troubling, is that the broadcasters have also been suing wacky billionaire Alki David who claims to have built a similar system as Aereo, though there are significant doubts about that in reality. In the cases against Alki David's company -- whose name has changed from FilmOn (originally) to AereoKiller (subtle) to BarryDriller (aimed at Aereo investor Barry Diller) and then back to FilmOn again -- the broadcasters have been winning. Aereo built its business carefully, with an aim towards following the law very specifically, and has a legal team that understands the issues. David? His response to yet another legal loss was to tell the court to kiss his ass.
Even if it were true that they were doing the same thing, the fact that David doesn't seem to know how to actually present a decent case is simply bad for everyone, because, even if they try not to, judges can't help but be influenced by such activities. Getting the Supreme Court to take on this case now rather than waiting until there's some sort of circuit split between an Aereo case and a FilmOn case hopefully leaves David's ridiculous antics out of the fight, and lets everyone focus on the core copyright issues at hand.
There is, of course, no guarantee that the Supreme Court grants cert to hear the case. But having both parties asking for the same thing is somewhat unusual, and given the issues at play, it makes it somewhat more likely that they'll be willing to check it out.

COLDWATER � Most golfers are lucky to get a single hole-in-one in their entire golf careers.
Don Rogers, 59, of Coldwater has now shot two.
Thirty-three years after Rogers hit his first hole-in-one in Quincy in 1980, he repeated the feat at the Golf Club of Coldwater during a senior league competition on Tuesday, Aug. 20th.
On the number two hole, a 158-yard par-3, Rogers hit a high arching shot.
Rogers said he noticed the ball drawing in as it landed. With an elevated green, Rogers was unable to see the shot go in.
As he looked for his ball, he asked the group ahead if they had seen it. It's in the hole one golfer replied.
Rogers said he noticed the top of the ball wedged between the cup and the pin. "It was a surprise," Rogers said. "We high-fived and all."
Strangely, this scene mimics Rogers' first hole-in-one in 1980.
On a par 3, his tee shot landed on the green which was, again, at the top of a hill. Rogers could not see the cup.
According to onlookers the ball hit once and bounced in.
Rogers said his first hole-in-one was more shocking than his last.
Sports Illustrated reports that the odds of getting a hole-in-one on a typical par 3 are 45,000 to 1.
Coldwater Golf Club pro Rolla Frisinger, 58, said that his course sees about 10 hole-in-ones each year. Club members who make this improbable shot are immortalized on the Hole-In-One Wall in the club's basement. It has been a tradition at the Coldwater clubhouse since 1920.
Frisinger said the iconic one-and-done shot usually involves equal parts of skill and luck.
Rogers agreed.
"It's luck," Rogers said. "you need to have a good shot but it's luck." Although Frisinger said he has seen bad shots that miraculously made it in the cup.
"One lady hit it off a tree," Frisinger said.
Rogers now has two hole-in-ones, but he has yet to actual see the ball go in the cup.
"It would have been nice to see it go in," Rogers said. "That happens to a lot of people. They're unable to see it go in on an elevated tee."
Rogers, who is the treasurer on the township board, now trails Art Wall Jr. by 52 for the most career hole-in-ones.
"To get one is great," Frisinger said. "Two is rare. And more is crazy-good."
Township treasurer stumbles upon second hole-in-one

The Roosevelt Island Tramway was built in 1976 as a temporary means for shuttling commuters from the then-new Roosevelt Island development into Manhattan. It was intended as a temporary measure until the completion of the subway line, but extensive delays in the construction of the tunnel coupled with great popularity of the tram among island residents has kept it around.
The tram was designed by Prentice & Chan and Ohlhausen and built by the Swiss company Vonroll. It is the only commuter cable car in North America. Cars can hold a maximum of 125 people and the 3,100-foot ride takes about four and a half minutes. The car rises to a maximum height of 250 feet, giving lovely views of both Roosevelt Island and Manhattan. (reference)
