Call Centre / Customer Service Recruitment Agencies Directory
Despite a recent wave of outsourcing in the industry, the Customer Service Sector employs more than 300,000 personnel in the UK and doles out over £5 billion in annual wages. In the past few years - having become notoriously inefficient due to communication issues - there has been a gradual reversal in the outsourcing of Call Centre Staff positions, and the number of UK jobs appears to be slowly rebounding.
Customer service recruitment
Recruitment agencies are especially looking for candidates with patience, an ability to learn quickly, and strong verbal communication skills, (bilingual applicants have a considerable advantage). Typing proficiency and IT literacy are also desirable qualities, but aside from these basic skills, there are no formal requirements for entry into the field. Training is typically given on the job, and no degrees or certification are needed.
Employees on the low end of the salary scale tend to earn between £13K and £15K annually, but experienced professionals, including Team Leaders and Managers, usually earn closer to £25K. The overall average salary in the UK is about £17K. Employment is available on part-time and full-time basis, and the working hours are standard: rarely requiring overtime. Some companies, however, do staff night shifts and offer 24/7 customer support. Secretarial recruitment agencies report that call centre staff will sometimes make the move to office based jobs and are perfectly suited to those with a good telephone manner.

Corsair Obsidian 650D Review
When I think of the Corsair Obsidian series, I am reminded of the massive full towers like the 700D and 800D that are immensely clean and perfect for watercooling, housing multiple video card setups, gigantic power supplies, and large hard drive arrays. Until recently, I was only aware that the Obsidian series cases were available in full towers and I was proven wrong when I learned about the Corsair Obsidian 650D. The Obsidian 650D is technically a mid tower, offering just about all the features you can expect out of a full tower — only sacrificing a little room. The Obsidian series has been wildly popular with the super high-end system builders and gamers with deep pockets as they certainly aren't cheap, but arguably some of the best cases that a couple hundred dollars can buy. The Obsidian series offers a feature-rich background, including integrated fan controllers, optional windows, hot swappable drives, brilliant cable routing systems, dust filters, and more.
The Corsair Obsidian 650D will be the first case from Corsair that I have had the fortune to evaluate. I am expecting an easy installation, good airflow, rigid construction, and thoughtful engineering on the packaged features, as well as more abstract ones, such as wire management and interchangeability of parts. This review will feature an in-depth evaluation of the Corsair Obsidian 650D. I will begin with packaging impressions and unboxing of the case, showing its packaged accessories. Following this will be an external and internal evaluation of the case, from my thoughts and opinions on these areas using a methodical approach. Most importantly, I will perform intense testing sessions with some of the latest hardware on the market while recording temperatures of key components, such as the CPU, video card, hard drives, and northbridge, and compare these results to other cases currently on the market. I am looking forward to getting started, so I'm going go end this introduction and jump right in!
Closer Look:
From what I've seen, Corsair generally sways away from flashy and high-end graphics on the disposable box that's most likely going to be thrown away within weeks of being opened. Other companies have been doing this as well, possibly to go green, but at the least, it saves cost. The entire box is printed in monochrome black and features a wireframe model of the Obsidian 650D on the front along with the Corsair logo next to a large amount of text. The sides of the case show general specifications of the case, such as dimensions, weight, expansion slots, etc. This information is provided in several different languages. The back of the packaging shows something I haven't seen often, which is an exploded view of the Obsidian 650D with numbered symbols that correspond to a commentary below — also in different languages. As an engineer, I must say we appreciate the exploded views! It's a very clear representation of the case and what to expect in terms of features and components.
The Obsidian 650D is packaged like most others, between two blocks of Styrofoam and wrapped in a bag. The accessory package can be found inside the case, which contains general hardware, such as standoffs, screws, zipties, etc. There is also a user's document included, which is basically a small poster that covers the basics on what features this case offers and how to fully take advantage of them.
With the Corsair Obsidian 650D out of the box and ready for exploration, I'm going to waste no time and make my way to the next page, covering the exterior of this case.

Whether you love 'em all around or you roundly reject them, roundabouts are increasingly popular for moving more cars through an intersection more quickly, more efficiently — and much more safely.
This imported European traffic-control measure has the stats on its side when it comes to curbing crashes.
Traditional signalized intersections converted to roundabouts have seen injury accidents reduced by as much as 80 percent, and collisions overall by half.
The way it typically works is vehicles enter a roundabout and travel counterclockwise, forced to slow down to anywhere between 15 and 35 mph to negotiate the tight turn radius around a raised center island.
Cars entering the roundabout must yield to those already circulating — as well as bicyclists and pedestrians — and slow, consistent speeds are maintained throughout. Drivers then proceed to their exit, following signs and pavement markings.
Multi-lane roundabouts can be more confusing — i.e. more intimidating — than single-lane ones. But generally speaking:
- If you need to go right, choose the outside lane.
- To go left or make a U-turn, choose the inside lane.
- Continuing straight? You can use either.
At a traditional four-way intersection, dangers abound from red-light runners and left-turn conflicts causing the most deadly sorts of encounters between cars: namely T-bone crashes and head-on collisions.
But vehicles inside a roundabout move at drastically reduced speeds — and all in the same direction. That means potential for the worst crashes is virtually eliminated — leaving only the far-less-injurious sideswipes and low-speed rear-end accidents.
Americans have been slow to accept roundabouts, which like the controversial zipper merge seems to many like just another fancified idea by a traffic engineer that only works on paper. But surveys have revealed a 70 percent favorable rating among motorists on average just a year after construction.
Keeping in mind that roughly a quarter of all U.S. traffic fatalities occur at intersections — are these success stats for roundabouts enough to make you come around?

Patrick Regan
has kindly shared the material
from his Robert Buchanan site with readers of the
At Portsmouth, in a tavern dark,
One day of windy weather,
A crew of reckless sailors sat,
And drank their grog together.
Loud was the talk, and rude the joke,
So deep the jovial din
They did not mark a lean, wild shape
Who shivering enter'd in:
A beggar wight, who hugg'd his rags,
And chatter'd with the cold;
Lean was his shape, his eyeballs dim,
Wrinkled his cheek, and old.
In a dark corner of the room
He sat with sorry cheer,
Not list'ning, till a word, a name,
Fell on his frozen ear.
'James Avery!' and as he spake
One pointed thro' the pane
At a great playbill on the wall
Of the damp and oozy lane.
On the dead wall the letters great
Made tempting bright display:
James Avery, the Pirate King,
Was posted that night's play.
'Ay!' cried a tar, reading aloud,
'Well might they call him so!
The Pirate King — I grudge his luck!'
Then, with an oath, 'I'll go.'
Another cried, 'Ah, that's the life
To suit a sailor's style
Ben Conway saw his palace, mates,
On Madagascar Isle;
'And on a throne, in red and gold,
Jem sat like any king,
With dark-eyed donnas all around,
As fresh as flowers in spring!
'They brought him wine in cups of gold,
And each knelt on her knee —
Each mother-naked, smooth as silk —
Ah, that's the life for me!'
Then spake a third, 'I sailed with Jem
On board the "Hurricane";
When he deserted I ne'er thought
To hear of him again.
'And now it's long since last I heard
His name, and p'raps he's dead.'
'Not so; he only takes a nap!'
A grizzly war's-man said.
'He has a fleet of fighting ships,
Swifter than ours tenfold;
Last spring he took six Indiamen,
Laden with gems and gold.
'There's not a corner of the main
But knows the skull and bones —
Up goes the flag! and down comes Jem,
As sure as Davy Jones.
'But let him have his fling; some day
We'll catch him at his trade —
Short shrift! a rope! and up he goes,
And all his pranks are played.'
All laughed; 'But not so fast,' cried one;
'It's not too late, I vow;
His Majesty would pardon him,
If he'd surrender now.
'The pardon's in the newspapers,
In black and white it's there;
If pirate Jem will cease his games,
They'll spare his life, they swear.'
All laugh'd again — 'Jem's wide awake —
You don't catch birds with chaff —
Come back to biscuit and salt junk?
He is too 'cute by half.
'Leave all his gold and precious stones,
His kingdom, and all that,
Bid all them dark-eyed girls farewell
For labour, — and the cat?'
Ev'n as they speak, a wretched form
Springs up before their eyes.
'Give me the paper! let me read!'
The famished creature cries.
They thrust him back with jeer and laugh,
So wild and strange is he. . . .
'Why, who's this skeleton?' . . . A voice
Answers, 'James Avery!'
Louder they laugh — 'He's mad! he's mad!'
They round him in a ring.
'Jem here in rags! no, he's in luck,
As grand as any king!'
But soon he proves his story true
With eager words and tones;
Then, as he ends, 'Bread, give me bread!
I'm starving, mates!' he moans.
'Nay, drink!' they cry; and his lean hands
Clutch at the fiery cup.
'Here's to the King who pardons me!'
He cries, and drinks it up.
He tells them of his weary days
Since that dark hour he fled,
A hunted thing, without a home
Wherein to lay his head.
Through some mysterious freak of fate,
His name abroad was spread,
And not a wondrous deed was done
But that wild name was said;
And all the time James Avery dwelt
An outcast, gaunt and grim,
Till creeping home that day he heard
His King had pardoned him.
The wild drink mounted to his brain,
He revell'd maniac-eyed,
'Come to the playhouse — 'twill be sport
To see thyself! ' they cried.
Between them, down the narrow street
They led his scarecrow form —
The wind blew chill from off the sea,
Before the rising storm.
They sat and saw the mimic play,
Till late into the night: —
The happy Pirate, crown'd with gold,
And clad in raiment bright.
The actor swagger'd on the stage
And drank of glorious cheer, . . .
James Avery gazed! his hungry laugh
Was pitiful to hear!
They parted. . . . As the chill white dawn
Struck down a lonely lane,
It flashed upon the rainy wall
And made the play-bill plain.
James Avery, the Pirate King!
The mocking record said —
Beneath, James Avery's famish'd form
Lay ragged, cold, and dead!
(From Miscellaneous Poems and Ballads, 1878-83.)

If you are encountering the login problem at front end and admin panel, one possible reason is that you set a too bigger value for post_max_size in php.ini.
In practice, we found post_max_size should not be bigger then 2GB =2048MB. Otherwise, PHP would not parse correctly the raw data sent from client browsers. This raise the issues on logging in sites, since your input data(such as username, password) are not recognized by PHP.
So the solution is to decrease post_max_size to strictly less then 2048MB in php.ini

Indiana's attorney general says he'll fight a federal judge's ruling limiting Indiana's ban on political robo-calls to in-state phone calls only.
U.S. District Judge William Lawrence in Indianapolis ruled that federal law pre-empts the Indiana's ban when it comes to interstate phone calls. The ruling says Indiana can still bar in-state robo-calls.
Attorney General Greg Zoeller said Wednesday he plans to appeal the ruling.
Patriotic Veterans Inc. filed a lawsuit last year saying the law violated the First Amendment and federal telecommunications laws. Lawrence did not rule on the constitutionality of the state measure in his decision Tuesday.
The ban allows Zoeller to seek fines of up to $5,000 for each violation. However political campaigns can still place robo-calls if a live operator obtains a person's permission first.

May 6, 2007
Rex Brothers and Taylor Merry provided Lipscomb with solid starting pitching but the offense could not capitalize as the Bisons' dropped a double-header to the Kennesaw State Owls by scores of 8-3 and 5-3 on Saturday, May 5.
In game one, the Bisons took their first lead of the series on an RBI single by Caleb Joseph in the third.
For the second day in a row, the Bisons' received a strong showing from their starting pitcher, this time from freshman left-hander, Rex Brothers. After the first batter he faced grounded out, Brothers proceeded to strike out the next seven.
However, after shutting out Kennesaw State through the first five innings, the Owls finally broke through against Brothers in the sixth. Back-to-back walks and a two-run double led to Brothers' departure.
He was relieved by Brandon McClurg with no outs and a runner on second in the sixth. In five plus innings, Brothers gave up three runs on five hits while striking out nine.
The Bisons added a run in the top of the sixth on an RBI single by Branden Cadavid and another in the eighth on an RBI groundout by Ben Williams.
The Owls' offense got to McClurg in the sixth and seventh. In two innings, he gave up five runs on six hits.
Brothers received the loss to drop his record to 7-3.
In game two, each team's pitching held the opponent to only a single inning of scoring, but a Bisons' error in the fourth led to five runs, three of which were unearned, and a 5-0 Owls' lead.
The Bisons' attempted to rally in the eighth. With one out, Shane Simpkins singled to right. Joseph followed with a single to center, putting runners on first and second, for Ryan Wilkins who drove home the Bisons' first run of the game with a single to center. The next batter, Casey Bond, doubled to right enter, driving in two, to bring the score to 5-3.
Right-hander, Taylor Merry, received the loss to drop his record to 3-2. In five innings, he gave up five runs, two earned, on seven hits, while striking out five.
With the loss, the Bisons dropped to 26-23 on the season, 10-11 in the Atlantic Sun.
The Bisons' return home when they take on the Samford Bulldogs at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, May 8.

Don Letts' Out of Print Landmark Punk Documentary
To Be Reissued On DVD
January 11, 2011 via Shout! Factory
The 2-Disc Set Features Two Hours of Bonus Materials
Los Angeles, CA – In the mid-1970s, a revolution was ignited on the streets of New York and London. Almost overnight, punk shattered the status quo and continued to impact all future generations of youth culture. On January 11, 2010, Shout! Factory will release the long out-of-print documentary PUNK: Attitude.
Directed by Don Letts, the film and its extensive bonus features, chronicle the origin of punk music and its socio-cultural and musical impact through interviews with key figures such as Henry Rollins, Thurston Moore, Jello Biafra, Chrissie Hynde and more. A must-have for fans of punk music, documentary aficionados and DVD collectors, the two-disc set of PUNK: Attitude is priced for everyone to own at $19.93.
With a cast of historic and modern figures in popular culture, the documentary ventures beyond the hype and explores the way punk music redefined popular music and fashion while legitimizing an independent, do-it-yourself attitude that inspired an entire generation of musicians, filmmakers, poets, photographers, fashion designers and graphic artists.
"With hindsight we are able to recognize it as part of an ongoing movement of counterculture," says filmmaker Don Letts adding, "It is in that spirit that I made this film, not as a nostalgic look back, but rather a way to move forward. After all, if it happened before, it can happen again."
PUNK: Attitude was officially released April 25, 2005 at the Tribeca Film Festival and later aired to critical acclaim on IFC. The DVD-set has long been out of print.

Stacy, Rodney, CAB, Tony, MIke, Lance and Tommy will be working on a Bones Brigade Documentary starting in February 2011.
On Monday, November 29th at Los Angeles International Airport, seven individuals that have had an extreme influence on skateboarding sat down to discuss work on a documentary of their experience. They met at the Encounter restaurant in the middle of the airport to begin work on this monumental film.
Stacy wrote, "Those skaters known as the Bones Brigade are now old enough to take a look back. At a time in the 80's when many people were mourning the second death of skateboarding, the Bones Brigade through passion, drive, creativity and a surprising sense of teamwork redefined the sport for their time and the future".
Documentary filmmaker, Stacy Peralta in a new film with Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, Steve Caballero, Mike McGill, Rodney Mullen, Tommy Guerrero and others will investigate the history, the team and the men to determine what is the legacy of the Bones Brigade. "Five years ago the guys got together and told me they wanted to do this. They believed they had a significant story others would want to know about. So now we're going to see."
Simultaneously, a Powell-Peralta coffee table book is in the works. It will include the Bones Brigade, but also other things you knew and didn't know about Powell-Peralta.
The Billabong X Bob Marley Collection
Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 30 November, 2010 : – – Hossegor — Billabong is proud to announce The Billabong x Bob Marley Collection, a collaboration with the House of Marley. Why did we collaborate with the House of Marley? Because we believe in Bob Marley's vision of "one world, one love."
Bob Marley is a musical prophet, whose words and vision forever changed the world. His image evokes a rich legacy and emotional connection that transcend generation, ethnicity, gender and geopgraphy. His voice touches, inpsires and moves. He is a phenomenon merging myth, man, musical genius, social awareness, and cultural relevance into a way of life embraced universally.
Billabong is committed to the development of earth-friendly, innovative products that adhere to the Marley family's core values: Equality, authenticity, and sustainability. Or as Bob might put it: "Make way for the positive day."

Since both my mother and maternal grandmother are still living and I don't know much about my other grandmother, I thought I would post this. I have the original and only recently found out it was published in a Hornbrook, Siskiyou Co. history book:
"What I Can Remember About Mother: Mary Anna Webb Wellons", Written by Georgianna Wellon Berger (daughter of Mary Anna)
Mother was the tenth child of Andrew and (I think) Priscilla WEBB, and was born in Wabash, Indiana, in 1862.
Her father was not tall and quite fat - as I remember him. Mother was only 4 feet 10 inches when grown. The father was blue eyed and had fair hair. Mother had gray eyes and red hair. The sisters and brothers I knew were dark haired and brown eyed.
My mother was 13 months old when her mother died - leaving a family of 6 boys and 4 girls (ages 19 years to 13 months).
Two of her brothers were killed in the Civil War. (I remember this because my Grandfather Andrew WEBB received a small pension after a certain age). My mother was the one who looked up the data and applied for it for him around the time I was born.
I knew two of Mother's sisters very well after they all came to Oregon and California.
One of two stories they told of their childhood before they moved to Colorado. The sister, Martha, and Mother were coming home from school in a snowstorm and Mother got so tired and sleepy she wanted to rest and her sister wouldn't let her but made her keep going.
Grandpa WEBB remarried a young woman not much older than the boys and the girls used to do things to tease her and laught at her. These stories I heard about when the girls got together in 1905-06, and they were ashamed of themselves then.
This marriage may have taken place after Grandpa WEBB and family left Indiana. I don't know just when the family left Indiana but it must have been after 1870. In crossing the mountains, the fourth child was born and they named her Lillie Timberline, because it was at the timberline. The mother died there so I guess the older girls took care them. I know nothing of those four children.
The family settled in Colorado, where they grew up and married.
Mother went to live in the home of a doctor - I think she was treated well and learned many things in housekeeping. She was only 11 years old when she went to work.
I asked her one time "were you pretty Mother?" She answered, "Well, some folks thought I was." Her hair was red and her eyes bluish gray, a very fair skin, pink cheeks.
Her sister, Martha, had dark brown hair and bright brown eyes. I remember her well - but she too was overweight.
They all seemed to enjoy life - laughed and sang - but were very timid - but both married young.
Mother was 16 1/2 when she married George Washington WELLONS on May 28, 1878 in Animas City, Colorado.
While still in Colorado, they had 4 children, Eben Boulder, born November 22, 1878, Hermosa Florita, born April 1, 1880, Edna May, born August 3, 1882 in Durango, and John Chapple Montgomery, born April 11, 1884 in Animas City, Colorado.
Before Flora was born, my father sold his property for around $2000 and planned to invest in a saloon - but I guess what you'd call a con man persuaded him and a neighbor to invest in some new product with headquarters in New York - so Dad settled Mother with Ebb in two rooms and money for groceries and he and two men went to New York - found the place where they had invested thier money "gone out of business" and the guys skipped out - a counterfeiting gang. So Dad came home broke. He said afterwards he was sure glad he hadn't invested in the saloon.
Of course, Mother was alone those two months he was gone - and she said she was afraid to go outside the door - but never a complaint I guess. She was a spunky little thing.
March 26, 1981 {date of writing}
I don't remember when I started writing about Mother, but I do want to write much much more - so I'll start again, after resolving to write a little every day and before my handwriting becomes any worse.
Mother was such a wonderful person. The older I get, the more I realize her greatness - yes, greatness - she was patient, kind, merciful, loving, forgiving, resourceful, industrious, never complaining and asking for nothing for herself. I could add many more fine attributes - such as humming as she worked, teaching us happy songs and helpful stories.
She was a fine seamstress, proud of her old pedal sewing machine - knitted lace on bleached flour sack underwear. She was noted for her bread, cakes, cookies and doughnuts, fried chicken, white lard which of course she rendered -- and her white clothes after they hung on the line washed by the soap she made.
Guess I'd better get back to their leaving Colorado.
After Father got back from that trip to New York, Dad took up farming again.
Dad decided he wanted to come to Oregon or California and in August of 1884, they left Colorado. There were three wagons in all - Mother's sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Jule NICHOLSON (Aunt Martha, we called her Mat), her brother George WEBB who had just married and another brother William. Grandpa WEBB was willing to come with them, so the four families left for Oregon.
I don't know the route they followed, but I know they went through Utah - for she and her sister would talk about being afraid of the Mormon men - and would hide in the covered wagons if they saw any riding by their camps or on the road - more afrraid of them than the Indians. They mentioned crossing the Mesa and the Snake River at least three times. The men would take the wheels off the wagons and float it across the river. The Snake River is the only one they mentioned. How they crossed the mountains, I don't know but I suppose they took the Oregon Trail for they finally arrived in Oregon at a town called Lakeview or near there.
One brother stayed in Eastern Oregon, but the rest of the party came south and arrived near Klamath Falls. What an experience, seeing the Klamath Lakes, flocks of wild birds, wild animals.
The winter was severe, but they stayed in old (couldn't have been very old) sheds and barns and they had plenty of wild game.
At one place they stayed in 1886, Sarah (Sadie) was born - so now there were five children. (The other two couples didn't have any.)
The earlier settlers were kind and hospitable. Dad was a good worker and "a jack of all trades but master of none." By this time he was in his early forties and Mother 25.
The party seemed to have gone their separate ways by the time they reached Klamath Falls.
Klamath Falls was quite a good sized town. There were little steamers on the lake and transportation was carried on the water. Shipping lumber, groceries, produce, etc. as well as for passenger service.
I don't know why my father didn't stay there - but he took the family about ten miles south on the river to a town called Keno. There they stayed for five years. Another baby girl was born February 24, 1888 and was named Fleda Leona. She was born in the house Dad built a little distance from the river. The little girl died when she was 3 months old. Mother and Dad really grieved over her loss. She was buried in the yard - by the house. Years later (about 6) Dad walked the 50 miles back to Keno when he heard they were going to plow up the field where her grave was. He moved her into the cemetery. I can remember about it because I listened to him tell Mother about it when he got home - and they cried and cried. That was unusual to see anyone cry, especially your mother and father.
They made many good friends there. One family, the McCORMACKS, had fourteen children. The father was named Tom and the Mother Anna. They must have been well (?) educated for the older girls taught the lower grades in the two-room school. They knew their 3 R's well anyway and Ebb, Flora, Edna and John went to school there.
Well - I came along two years later (Georgianna). I was born April 29, 1891. So now there were six children.
The railroad was being built to Oregon and would cross the Klamath River about 20 miles south of the Oregon border in California. There was a large lumber industry developing at a place called Pokegama, but they needed a railroad outlet so the company, John Cook & Co., moved their operation to a place on the Klamath River and called it Klamathon.
My father decided to move from Keno, so in April of '92 the covered wagon was put into use again. I like to think it might have been the same one but of that there is no proof. The covered wagons were the motor homes of that day.
Six children and Mother and Dad started on the 50-mile trip over Topsy Grade, through beautiful timber down the Klamath River. Sorry I can't describe the trip as I wasn't quite a year old. Mother said there were quite a few farms along the way for the soil was fertile and cheap. A health resort had sprung up called Klamath Hot Springs and was even then becoming known. It must have taken at least 2 weeks before we got to the town of Ager where the railroad was.
A roadhouse, hotel and store, owned by the Ager family, was operating a good business. One of the young women who worked there was a Spannaus girl. She might have been married to Jud Ager at that time; anyway, she told me this story of our family when we arrived there when I was 1 year old. Not really a story but her impression of the family.
She and Jud owned the hotel, store and just about everything at that time. But of all the people who came there, she remembered Mother the most -- a little 4 ft. 10 in. red headed woman, timid and gentle who kept everything so clean - and because all of the children were so well behaved. I take no credit for my behavior for if I were a good 1-year-old, it was because all of the rest of the kids spoiled me. There had been no babies in the family for 5 years. Ebb was 14 and on down every two years to Sadie, 5, and me.
Back to the trip down to the town of Klamathon. It was raining hard when they arrived in Ager and so Dad decided to stay there. I think they stayed in a little house for two weeks.
It was only five miles on to Klamathon but there was quite a grade to go over and no place to live when we got to Klamathon except in the wagon.
John said they left Keno on his birthday, the 11th of April, so it was nearly May when they arrived in Klamathon.
He settled the family near a creek on the north side of the river. The railroad was on the south side. Dad took up a homestead about a mile away toward Hornbrook, and built a small four-roomed house. Some time during the summer they moved there. They used a large tent for a bedroom for the boys. It could have been the top of the covered wagon, for I'm sure it was waterproof. They had used it for storing things.
Soon they had a garden, fruit trees, a barn for the horses. They bought two cows and of course had chickens and a pig or two and were doing well enough.
Mother began doing washing for the families who owned the mill and also did some baking. She must have been a good manager of her time with garden and chickens and family to feed and four girls to sew for, quilts to make, etc. That sewing machine surely paid for itself.
Ebb and Dad got work with the lumber company until fall.
There was no high school in Klamathon, so in the fall Ebb went to work for a druggist in Fort Jones and went to school there.
Mama's sister, Martha, who lived in Hornbrook, came often to see us. She always brought presents and helped Mother with her work. We all loved her very much. She was so happy and jolly all the time.
So we lived on Doby Hill for four or five years, then moved into Klamathon proper where Mother started a bakery.
Brother William Andrew was born in Klamathon on July 20, 1894, the last of the children.
We lived in Klamathon for six years, then fire swept the town. Saving a few of our things, we moved to Yreka in the fall of 1902. Mother started doing some baking with the help of her daughter Edna, and Dad would deliver the pastries and bread. They did this for about three years, then rented a house on Center Street where they kept boarders."
While there are some errors and omissions (the family lived in Kansas and Illinois before Colorado) it is a treasure in my family and also a great history of the Oregon and California border area around the turn of the 20th Century.

How To Freeze Bacon for Easy Cooking Later
One of the very first cooking tricks I ever learned was just how much a slice or two of bacon can boost the flavor of an otherwise simple soup or braise. I was hooked from that first subtly smoky, bacon-enhanced bite. You can bet I had bacon stocked in my freezer ever after. Here's how to freeze bacon so that you can grab just a few slices when you need them.
When I'm buying bacon for cooking rather than Saturday morning munching, I spring for the really good stuff: double-smoked, thick-cut, and a good ratio of fat to meat. Check the meat counter at your grocery store — not only is this bacon sometimes less expensive than the packaged varieties, but you can get a better look at its meat-to-fat ratio and overall appearance.
If you freeze the whole package, then you're stuck with thawing (and then using) the whole package. Freezing the slices individually between layers of wax paper takes a few minutes of work at the outset, but allows you to use just a slice or two when you need them.
Take the number of slices out of the freezer when you start to prep your recipe, and they'll thaw in a few minutes at room-temperature. If your recipe calls for chopping the bacon first, I recommend doing so while the bacon is still frozen. I find that it's actually easier to cut bacon cleanly while it's still solid and cold.
How to Freeze Individual Slices of Bacon
What You Need
Any amount of good bacon
Wax paper
Gallon-sized freezer bag or other freezer container
- Lay the first slice of bacon on wax paper. Lay a long piece of wax paper on your counter. Place the first slice of bacon along one edge of the wax paper.
- Fold the wax paper over the bacon.
- Lay a second piece of bacon over the first. The two slices will be separated by a layer of wax paper.
- Fold the wax paper over the bacon. Fold the wax paper back over the second slice of bacon.
- Continue piling slices of bacon and folding the wax paper over each slice. As you pile the slices and fold the wax paper over top, you'll start to form an accordion with bacon in each fold
- Store in a freezer bag and freeze. Wrap any excess wax paper around the bacon and store it in a freezer bag or other freezer container. Freeze until solid and remove slices as you need them.

I was going to wait and post this in the Ireland section when I got around to it, but I like it and was just looking at it. It took a surprisingly small amount of PP to get here, even less than "standard." The Irish call this a "bog" and were amused I was so excited to see one.
Expect more from Mongolia next though.

Kunisaki Izumo no Jijou:
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
Summary: Izumo 15 year old is a guy and is usually mistaken for a girl. He is the 17th generation of the Kunizaki troupe, a famous Kabuki troupe.

But what happens when Izumo's mom leaves for a trip around the world leaving him with his 16th generation successor of the Kunizaki troupe dad? Will he re-discover the joy of being on stage again? (Taken from Mangafox.com)
Ok, so it's listed as gender-bender and shounen; not usually the best combo I admit. However if you give it a chance you will totally end up laughing with each new chapter. It is overall, just a funny, light-hearted manga with some drama just to spice it up.
and Komatta Toki ni wa Hoshi ni Kike:

Summary: Fujishima Takara goes to high school and will start living in a dorm because he has lost all his family except for his father, who's always away for his work.

At first the two get on each other's nerves because of those differences. But things turn towards friendship and later on, towards love? (Taken from Mangafox.com)
It is shounen ai, but it is really funny. It's a nice mix of drama and comedy that if you keep an open mind to, will end up weaving it's way into your favorites list. It's funny, but serious and it has a great moral aspect to it that is just adorable.
The path you take may not be pretty or easy to find, but it\'s yours.
Deadman Wonderland
It's really dark and sad. There's a lot of violence and sci-fi themes. But overall the characters are amazing and the art is nice. Warning- There is minor nudity, but nothing too too bad. And there's a lot of swears. But, it's just SO good! To me anyway...
First of all, it's a "gender bender" It could even be considered shounen-ai. It's really metaphorical if you think about it. It's a romance between the main character and like everybody. There's some suggestive scenes. But, it's kinda cute...
Acid Town
It's a soft yaoi. It's kinda disturbing... and it's about a male prostitute. There's romance in it as well was mystery and irony. I am in love with the artwork for it, too! It's just so... pretty.
Seven Days
It's a shounen-ai. It's so cute! I can't even stand it! It's romance, of course. The only thing that bothers me is that you never really know what happened at the end...
Dogs: Bullets and Carnage
I recommend reading Dogs: Prelude before this. But, anyway, it's so interesting. It's violent and creepy. (Haine is the best character ever) It can be funny and sad. But, it's mainly a manga about the mafia and evil scientists. It sounds stupid, but I recommend it! Again, there is a little bit of boob shots at some points, but it's actually important to the plot. Don't ask why, just read it...
Kuroshitsuji or Black Butler
There's loads of fanservice, but it has a weird plot. It's about demons and shinigami. There's shounen-ai undertones. The latest chapter nearly break the undertone barrier, but it's still a great manga. Again, violence....
Pandora Hearts
This manga is weird as hell. It's really sad, too. It hurts my head... But, I love it! Lots of Alice in Wonderland references. As well as plot twists.
Boys Next Door
It's so old and short! But, it's amazing! Honestly, my favorite yaoi! it's creepy and bloody! The main character's strange... and it's just so weird...
There's only a handful of straight characters. It's very metaphorical. BTW keep in mind that there is NO age of consent in Japan.... And there are lots of cat boys... oh, and it's a shounen-ai
Skip Beat!!!!
AAA, B.O.D.Y., and black bird
Active but not so often :) but do send me messages!
Wandering Son
Nabari no ou
@samsam95: I liked your suggestions. Read one, bookmarked a few and even bought one off of amazon. ~.~
I'd say its... action/sci-fi. Its mostly about the artwork though, the mangaka Tsutomu Nihei was an architecture major before starting writing manga, and you can tell. The dialogue is sparse, cept for very ending which is a little wordy. Epic is the one word to describe it. Vast emptiness and an impossibly long journey.
Gokinjo Monogatari (Neighborhood Story), Paradise Kiss, and Nana. :3 I hold all shoujo to these golden standards.

http://mafiahahaha.tumblr.com/ ☆ミ
I prefer either Papillion thats a good one or black bird that one is funny!!!!!
As far as quality, ongoing series go...
Not Equal - Ike Reibun(Simply amazing.)
Acid Town - Kyuugou(I think saying this is about a male prostitute is misleading. It's a very, very good series with a lot of heart)
They are both yaoi(though the only sex in acid town in the currently scanlated chapters is not like that, nor is it anything explicit). I wouldn't say they are unpopular though, just less well known than things like junjou romantica/etc.
As far as recommendations for great lesser known manga I'd have to start with 7 Seeds. Its josei manga, so its more mature than most shounen or shoujo titles. 7 seeds is a post-apocalyptic survival story with great characters and gripping plot. It isn't licensed as far as I know but you can find it on most scanlation sites. Its ongoing and the scanlations are a few volumes behind the Japanese release. Cannot recommend this enough.
I'd also recommend the Full Metal Panic manga. Its an adaptation of the light novels and follows the story long after the anime left off. Some of the novels, but not all, were translated and released by Tokyopop. Fan translations of all of them can be found online but they vary in quality. The manga follows the story pretty closely, so if you saw the anime and liked it enough to keep following the adventures of Sousake and Chidori check it out. Its ongoing.
Of the more action popular titles the ones I like the best are:
D. Grayman, Claymore, Black Butler, Blue Exorcist and Pandora Hearts
In the romance categories I'd say Maid-sama and Fruits Basket are popular for a reason, they are really good.
The World God Only Knows
Kaichou wa Maid-sama!
One Piece
Hana to Akuma
Pandora Hearts,
Bokura ga Ita
Ao Haru Ride
Samurai Deeper Kyo! Best manga ever.. mostly cause Hotaru is so awesome!!
Zombie Loan! Zombies never looked so good!!
Aoi no Exorcist.. the manga is even better then the anime!!
King of Bandit Jing! It's quirky but I love it!
Only DEATH can cure STUPIDITY!!

Going to put these in a thread of their own since there are so many of them!
I've been compiling a list of videos I've come across during the course of E3 which cover new trailers & gameplay footage which you won't have seen at the conferences. With so much stuff coming out of E3 it's very easy to miss stuff, and it's impossible to simultaneously watch all of the stage demos across YouTube, Twitch etc so I thought I'd post these up incase there's anything you guys have missed and might be of interested in. I have linked some of these on Discord over the last few days so you may have already seen a few of them on there but there's a lot of others here which I haven't:
If I come across any others between posting this thread and E3 ending, I'll be sure to edit them in to the bottom of the list. Enjoy!

10 Under $300: Giant, Affordable Rugs to Cover Hideous Floors
Rentals often come with more than their fair share of terrible flooring, but gross linoleum in the bedrooms is a new personal low. Determined not to sleep in a room with floors unfit for a kitchen but also determined not to break the bank, I've been pricing out huge rugs to cover that mess..
The two bedrooms in question are 15'x9' each, and by our (local, approximate) estimates, it would cost up to $1,400 to replace them with laminate or hardwood flooring — and that's if we do the work ourselves. Installing hardwood floors in a rental is probably insane — unless you plan on living there for a good long while, and I certainly wouldn't judge you! — and while laminate would be less expensive, we're holding onto the higher price so we'd be prepared for unforeseen expenses. That $1,400 estimate also makes the prices of the following rugs a lot more attractive...
In our relatively small bedrooms, a queen size bed in each would leave approximately 9'x9' of floor to be covered with a rug, but I've included rugs in a range of sizes, all under $300.
- Urban Outfitters Magical Thinking Chevron, 8'x10', $199: Urban Outfitters has an impressive selection of 8'x10 rugs, including this one that's not too chevron, but I would recommend holding out for sales. I scored an awesome 5'x7' denim rag rug there for $10 last year.
- Target's Maple Fretwork, 7'x10', $149: That's a lot of rug for the price!
- Target's Blu Dot Real Wood, 7'x10', $349: Okay, this one goes over budget, but it cracked me up. Why mess with hardwood floors when you can have a "wood" carpet? There's also a 5'x7' for $199.
- Target's Hand Woven Wool Tie Dye, 7'x10', $179: I weirdly kind of love this one- it's like low-key ikat. Target has tons of big rugs for under $300, but I would definitely need to see them in person before choosing one.
- IKEA's Lappljung Ruta, 6'7"x9'10", $99: This one is my favorite so far, and though I've never paid that much for a rug (or any other home good), it's not bad at all for the size.
- IKEA's Morum, 6'7"x9'10", $139: I haven't seen this one in person, but it appears to be similar to laying down a piece of carpeting, without all the stapling hassle. Not very exciting, maybe, but it gets the job done.
- IKEA's Egeby, 6'7"x9'10", $149: This sisal rug is very much our style, and actually exactly what I envisioned when I started brainstorming ways to hide the floors. Has anyone out there lived with sisal rugs?
- Crate & Barrel's Flint Sisal, 6'x9', $299: Is it possible that this one is twice as nice/durable/valuable as the IKEA version? (The 6'x9' sisal rug at Pottery Barn is $656!) There's also an 8'x10' that's $399...
- Crate & Barrel's Andhra Slate, 8'x10', $279: This jute version is on sale! Crate & Barrel has a lot of large rug options, but many approach the price of replacing the floors altogether. Of course we'd get to keep the rugs when we moved, but sadly, we don't have a $1,200 rug budget.
- Pottery Barn's Parker Indoor/Outdoor, 8'x10', $249: The "outdoor rugs" sections have been some of the first places I've been checking for affordable rugs, and this might be my favorite find.

Good News For Women Who Love Coffee
Like many people, I love coffee, so it was nice to see this article on the "coffee consumption of women" published online before print in the February 16 issue of Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association.
Dr Esther Lopez-Garcia and colleagues analyzed data from a prospective group of 83 076 women in the Nurses' Health Study. At the beginning of the study none of the women had any history of stroke, coronary heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. The researchers first assessed coffee consumption in 1980 and then followed up every 2 to 4 years through 2004.
With more than 20 years of data, the researchers found that long term consumption of coffee was not linked to higher risk of stroke. Instead they found it was linked to a modest reduction of stroke risk among women. Drinking three cups of coffee a day reduced the risk by nearly 20 per cent compared to drinking less than one cup of coffee a month.
The study documented the number and types of strokes that occurred in these women during the years 1980 – 2004. A total of 2280 strokes occurred (426 were hemorrhagic, 1224 were ischemic, and 630 were undetermined).
The relative risks of stroke decreased as the amount of coffee consumed went up. The relative risk of stroke in a woman who drank less than one cup per month was noted to be 0.98 compared to a relative risk of 0.81 for a woman who drank 2 to 3 cups of coffee per day.
The noted protection held even in women with high blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, type 2 diabetes, and smokers. Other drinks containing caffeine such as tea and caffeinated soft drinks were not associated with stroke.
The authors concluded that long-term consumption of coffee will not increase the risk of stroke in women, but may modestly reduce that risk. Good news for those of us who love coffee.

Is it really right to classify ROCOR as "Old Calendarist"? Their separation didn't have anything to do with the calendar change, and they're apparently on the verge of reunion with Moscow, anyhow. --Rdr. Andrew 13:00, 28 Feb 2005 (CST)
Archbishop Gregory (Dormition Skete / Colorado)
How should his eminence be classified? As a separate jurisdiction? Eddieuny 21:18, 7 Jul 2005 (EDT)
- Good question. What does he call his jurisdiction? Are there any other bishops in it with him? Their website describes them as "temporarily independent." I'd hate to make up a name for them if they didn't have their own, but they are probably worth a mention. —[[User:ASDamick|—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!)]] 21:48, 7 Jul 2005 (EDT)
- Oh, here we go: http://www.roacamerica.org/
- It seems they're the "Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church in America." —[[User:ASDamick|—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!)]] 22:15, 7 Jul 2005 (EDT)
Article bias?
I received this feedback today from someone. Any comments? Thanks, Fr. John
- Interesting. I think this article illustrates some of the problems with a publicly edited encyclopedia. Just a couple examples...
- Headed by Metropolitan Valentine of Suzdal, the synod has twelve bishops and is enjoying a period of relative stability amidst intermittent persecution on the part of the state church. One bishop, Gregory (George) of Colorado, recently went into schism, but took no parishes with him save four, calling themselves the Russian Orthodox Autonomous Church in America.
- This seems very biased in favor of Valentine and against Gregory (note that I am not the least bit fond of either of them).
- In 2001, after the ROCOR made a clear commitment to union with the Moscow Patriarchate, the head of the ROCOR synod, Metropolitan Vitaly, retired in clear disgust from the proceedings.
- Almost immediately afterwards, Metropolitan Vitaly, Archbishop Varnava of Cannes, and the two of the Russian bishops of ROCOR, separated from the ROCOR and made new bishops. The proceedings that led up to these events are well documented on the Internet and the treatment of the retired head of the ROCOR was painful to watch, for even the most casual observer.
- Again, obvious bias in favor of the Mansonville schismatics (yes, I have a personal interest here).
I don't see why it couldn't be worded a bit more neutrally. The original bulk of the article was taken by permission from a text written by a scholar in the field (who is himself, I believe, in one of these groups), JosephSuaiden. In any event, it's curious that the person who wrote to you didn't see instead the inherent strengths of a publicly editable encyclopedia and come contribute.
I'll work with those passages to see if I can "neutralize" them a bit. —[[User:ASDamick|—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!)]] 15:15, 22 Jul 2005 (EDT)
It appears that Archbishop Gregory has changed his church's name to the "Genuine Orthodox Church of America." link title. However, this may be ambiguous as the Metropolis of the GOC-Chrysostomite under Metropolitan Pavlos is called GOC as is the Makarian Synod's presence in America. --Anastasios 14:07, February 20, 2006 (CST)
"Kiousis Synod"
I changed the eponym for the "Kiousis" Synod to "Chrysostomite". This is how it is known and referred to in Greece. The alternative "Kiousis Synod" is used in polemical contexts by its detractors. "Chrysostomite" is commonly used to refer to both Chrysostom of Florina (as opposed to Matthewite) and Chrysostom (Kiousis) of Athens (as opposed to Auxentite). I also corrected the timeline of the Florenite ordinations and the removal of Auxentios in 1986.
- Thanks Leonidas! Good to see you here - Fr. John

While legislatures focus on antievolution bills, a new video helps students see how evolution works
Oakland, California, May 6, 2008 -- As attacks on evolution education remain in the news, with proposed antievolution legislation in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan, and Missouri in the headlines, a new video rebutting the basic premise of "intelligent design" creationism is now available on www.ExpelledExposed.com.
When the Florida legislature ended its session on May 2, 2008, legislative attempts to open the door to creationism died in the House of Representatives.
Nathaniel Abraham's lawsuit against Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution was dismissed on April 22, 2008. Contending that he was fired, in violation of his civil rights, for not accepting evolution, Abraham filed suit against the research center on November 30, 2007, alleging that his rights were violated under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and seeking compensatory and punitive damages.
House Bill 6027, introduced in the Michigan House of Representatives on April 30, 2008, and referred to the House Committee on Education, is the very latest so-called "academic freedom" bill aimed at undermining the teaching of evolution, joining similar bills currently under consideration in Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Missouri.

Matrox DualHead2Go Digital SE External Multi-Display Adaptor Review
With productivity being ever so important these days, who can afford to have only a single screen for their work? We are in a multi-tasking world, unlike the older days when CRT monitors were the standard. What if you are constrained to using a laptop? Of course, most laptops have a VGA output or, if you are lucky, an HDMI output. However, let's say you are in need of more than that. What if you are giving presentations or working on complex architecture designs? If you are like me you might like to watch movies or view stock quotes while working on a project on your portable computer. Matrox has developed products to enable you to be as productive as possible with multiple displays. Today we are taking a look at the Matrox DualHead2Go Digital SE DisplayPort adaptor.
The Matrox DualHead2Go Digital SE is a display multiplier for laptops and desktops designed to extend your viewing space. This particular model has a DisplayPort input and two DVI outputs supporting up to 3840x1200 resolutions, which is equivalent to a screen spanned across two 1920x1200 monitors. The DualHead2Go can also be combined with another adaptor for up to four additional monitors for your system, provided your graphics card or mobile computer supports the connections. The beauty of this unit is that it can work with multiple displays and even projectors for video presentations, movies, and more. This model only support Windows and Linux, however there are several models to choose from including a Mac compatible version as well as models with analog and digital connections. Some of the many uses for the DualHead2Go include presentations on projectors, expanding workspace displays, digital signage, and more.
Closer Look:
The packaging of the Matrox DualHead2Go Digital SE is well made and will protect your investment during shipping. On the front of the packaging is a picture of the unit along with a list of some of its features. The back side of the package provides a diagram of the unit along with some setup instructions and additional features of what the unit offers. This diagram shows the adaptor being used with a PC-based laptop, which is what this unit is designed to target for expanding your mobile displays. Keep in mind that this unit can also work for DisplayPort enabled PC desktops. Included in the box is the Matrox DualHead2Go Digital SE unit itself, an installation CD and instruction book, a USB Power cable, and a DisplayPort cable.
The unit itself is quite small considering all that it is designed to do. Most single USB to DVI adaptors are almost the same size. The unit measures 3.8 inches wide, 2.5 inches deep and 1.1 inches tall. One side houses the input connections: one USB 2.0 port for powering the unit from the mobile device and one DisplayPort input for the video in connector. There is an optional power supply kit that can be purchased to power the unit from a wall jack if needed. On the reverse side there are two DVI connectors for up to two displays in either a single operation mode or a combined mode of up to 3840x1200 resolutions. Opening the unit allows us to view the internal components that power the DualHead2Go. There is not much going on inside, which is incredible considering what this adaptor can achieve. The adaptor is powered by a single IDT VMM1402 Multi-Monitor controller that is compliant with DisplayPort v1.1a, VESA DDM, HDCP V1.3, and EDID v1.4, has main line rates of 2.7Gbps and 1.62Gbps from the source, and supports up to two displays for output.
With everything hooked up, you can see just how small of a footprint the DualHead2Go leaves. It is not much bigger than the two DVI connectors themselves. The two DVI ports are labeled "1" and "2". These numbers will come into play when you look at the second picture below for identifying the monitors. The monitor on the left in that picture shows 2.1 and the one on the right shows 2.2, meaning the DualHead2Go is the second output, the first port is 2.1, and the second is 2.2. Below you can also see that, when connected to a laptop with a DisplayPort, you can use the DualHead2Go to extend your viewing space to have three monitors working in tandem. This feature is enabled when the 2x1 extension ability of the DualHead2Go is activated, which essentially makes the two external monitors act like a single display.
Now that we have seen the unit in action, we can take a look at the configuration software.

Heritage Scrapbooking: Turning Genealogy Into A Gift
|Turn a photo of an ancestor into a gift
My aunt was Grannie's caretaker for the last 9 years of her life. My aunt says Grannie really was fairly self-reliant until the last year. I knew having Grannie gone would be tough for my absolutely amazing aunt. When it was craft night at church, and this project came up, I knew what to do. I made a copy of the photo my aunt never knew existed and mounted it on this tile. When my aunt saw it, I knew I had made something amazing for her.
It's fairly straightforward.
- Use a copy of a heritage photo (or printed family tree).
- Obtain a piece of tile. They come in various sizes from home improvement stores (or from a goodwill 'restore' type place). The tile we used was 6x6.
- Select complimentary scrapbook or wrapping paper and cut to size.
- Lay a thin layer of Mod Podge on the tile with a foam brush.
- Place photo and decorative paper on the adhesive. Smooth with fingers or specialty tool.
- Cover the photo and paper with another layer of Mod Podge.
- Glue ribbons and attach sticker embellishments
