It was every homebuyer's worst nightmare: discovering the expensive bungalow bought "site" unseen over the Internet was not what it had seemed.
When Nancy Spiewak and her partner Gord Galvin arrived at their "new" front door in July 2011, the paint was peeling, the roof needed replacing and there was no heat; some of the heritage home's radiators were even propped up by bricks.
"My heart sank. What a neglected mess. What a lot of work. What a dump the previous owners had let it slip into," says Nancy, who bought the house based on a Google walk through its upscale neighbourhood.
A situation that would have most people calling for a wrecking ball or their lawyers became a mission to give a 3,000-square-foot "grande old dame" a 21st-century facelift. Their new home, the John Stein Residence, was built in 1911, seven years after Edmonton's incorporation as a city. In the architecturally rich neighbourhood of Westmount, it enjoys a place on the city's official list of historic resources.
Nancy and Gord's reimagined home is now a wonderful blend of old world marrying new. The central staircase went from a treacherously steep, walled-in climb to a glass-and-oak switchback, creating a "heart of light" spreading sunlight in all directions. Despite a definite Arts and Crafts feel, Nancy prefers to more loosely define her home's style as a combination of "high-gloss blacks, creams, classic and simple, European flavour, and turn-of-the-century styling with a modern twist."
She laughs, but insists she isn't joking when she credits most of her renovation's inspiration to the styling and contents of a bottle of her favourite gin, Hendricks.
As a professional photographer with a degree in fine arts, creating moods with lighting, clean lines, old wood, leaded glass and walls washed in knockout colours comes easily to her.
So, apparently, do determination and drive. She spent more than 2,000 "woman" hours on the house herself, because she had such a hard time getting workers in Edmonton's hot labour market to show up and to finish jobs.
She tiled the feature wall herself in the cupboard-less, white and black kitchen. The wall is made up of small, rectangular white tiles that were inspired by a photo she took in a famous metro station in Paris.
It took her two weeks to finish, and complements the opposing original red brick wall that was spared during the renovation.
Oak countertops and pullout cupboard drawers from Ikea make storage a breeze. The stools, which Nancy and Gord spotted on a stroll in New York City, look like they came from a 1950s ice cream parlour, with their chrome posts and worn, candy-coloured red leather.
The room has been opened up to include the dining area, fireplace seating and library. Wall-to-wall windows and glass french doors lead to the deck and backyard. A mud room has been transformed into a library, with a wall of wine racks and storage nooks. Wingback chairs in front of the antique fireplace create a cosy nook.
Nancy ordered many of the room's finishing touches over the Internet, including the delicate, delightful white Danish pendant lighting and bold, colourful carpets.
The adjacent ebony bathroom, which she calls "the gentleman's room," is in tones inspired by a photo Nancy took of a storm over the ocean in Mexico.
A chandelier, pot lights and sconces - all on dimmers - create a mood of rest and luxury.
The room's shiny black wainscot-ting reflects the cast-iron claw foot tub, which Nancy found online and had shipped for free from Virginia. Its simple wall-mounted chrome water spout and fixtures match the vanity, which stores most of the daily necessities.
Nancy says one of the renovation's biggest costs was the new furnace and infloor heating system. She says that after having opening up the middle of the house, she only has to turn on the main floor heat to keep the upstairs warm as well.
The opposite of its glossy black counterpart on the main floor, the upstairs bathroom is bright ivory, with a large walk-in glass shower and polished, sliced-pebble flooring.
The master bedroom, with floor-to-ceiling windows, opens to a deck overlooking the large backyard, where a nature-made picture of cherry, lilac and apple blossoms will greet Gord and Nancy come spring.
The entire home is like an original piece of art - gracious, eye-catching and perfectly balanced.
As Nancy says, although a move is imminent for Gord and her, she can't imagine anyone knocking the house down in the near future, which is just the security a grande old dame deserves when entering her second century.

XFX R7 240 Review
XFX R7 240 Core Introduction:
AMD has filled the market up from high- to low-end graphics card solutions. Rounding out the low-end at the bottom is the R7 240. XFX currently has seven models of the R7 240 to choose from — this is the R7-240A-CLH4. The CLH4 is a passively cooled low-profile card with 2GB of DDR3. This card supports most of the features of its more powerful brethren: GCN Architecture, AMD Mantle, AMD App Acceleration, AMD HD3D, and Quad Full HD/4K support to name a few.
The core is a 28nm Oland Pro clocked at 780MHz under boost, stock 730MHz. Five Compute Units provide 320 Stream Processors, 20 Texture Units, 32 Z/Stencil ROP Units, and 8 Color ROP units. On the memory front there is 2GB of DDR3 clocked at 1.6GHz paired with a 128-bit memory interface. Connectivity is through a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slot with video output through HDMI, VGA, and DVI.
XFX R7 240 Core Closer Look:
The box for the XFX R7 240 Core Edition is similar to that of the R7 250, reviewed last year. The main colors are black and white with some blue decorations and yellow to add some pop to the key features. At the bottom the main features are listed: 2GB DDR3 memory, HDMI, DVI, and VGA outputs, completely silent passive 6mm-heatpipe cooler, low profile with interchangeable brackets, Stereoscopic 3D graphics, and 3D Blu-ray ready. Turning the box over reveals features translated in six main languages, including PCI-Express 3.0 x16 bus interface, DirectX 11.2 support, Bullet physics engine, AMD GCN compute architecture, PCI Express 3.0 32GB/s Ultra wide bandwidth & 8GT/s, PowerTune 2, OpenGL 4.2 & OpenCL 1.2, AMD HD3D, Quad Full HD/4K video resolution, AMD PowerPlay, and 3D Blu-ray support.
The first side of the R7 240 box has the background art wrapping around. The center has a list of contents — XFX R7 240, Installation CD, Quick Installation Guide, Driver CD Guide, and Warranty Card. Below this in a very dark font is the copyright information for XFX and AMD. At the very bottom are the different certifications/compliances including FCC Declaration of Conformity, CE European Community, and RoHS Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive. The other side is mainly decorative although it does show the model in bold white font.
The top cover is where the self-adhesive card-specific label is placed. The part number for this XFX R7 240 is R7-240A-CLH4. This label also has the serial and UPC codes. At the top right of the label it says "Made In China". The bottom of the box has seven amendments to the points listed all over the box. The right side has the system requirements: one PCI-Express x16 slot available on the motherboard, 400W or greater power supply, for CrossFire another R7 240 and PCI-Express x16 slot on a AMD CrossFire Ready motherboard are needed, and only up to two cards can be used, minimum 1GB of system memory, and Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1 are supported operating systems.
Lower-end graphics cards rarely have or need much in the way of accessories. The XFX R7 240 is protected by a black anti-static bubble wrap sleeve. With DVI, VGA, and HDMI connectivity most users are covered for immediate connection — DisplayPort is left out, but is not nearly as commonplace, especially at this level. XFX has a list of adapters and connectors with their various models and information on how to get them. A Driver/CD Installation Guide, Quick Install Guide, XFX Warranty Information Guide, AMD Graphics Card Driver CD, XFX Pro Series PSUs advertisement, XFX Warranty card with serial and model number for easier support, and two low-profile adapters round out the accessory pack. AMD CrossFire with these cards does not use or need a CrossFire dongle.
Next up is a view of the XFX R7 240 in detail!

Brockton saw 2,140 people admitted to state-funded substance abuse treatment programs between July 1, 2009 and June 30, 2010. Forty five percent said they had used heroin during the previous 12 months.
First in a two-part update of the Wasted Youth series on heroin addiction and the vise-like grip it has had on the region for more than a decade.
The scourge of heroin abuse continues unabated in the greater Brockton and Taunton region, according to two recent federal reports on substance abuse.
And the problem, as first reported by The Enterprise in its ongoing series "Wasted Youth," now extends to all of Eastern Massachusetts, which outpaces much of the nation in heroin-fueled emergency room visits and admissions to state treatment programs for painkiller addictions, the studies say.
During the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2010, Brockton residents accounted for 2,140 admissions to state-funded substance abuse programs. Forty-five percent of the people admitted to programs said they had used heroin during the previous year. Taunton had 1,318 admissions during the same period and 42 percent of those patients said they had used heroin within the previous 12 months.
The data does not include information on the many treatment programs funded by sources other than the state.
The new studies re-enforce the findings of The Enterprise series which was first published in 2007 and is frequently updated on enterprisenews.com: opiate addiction isn't just a big-city problem.
For example, Abington, a town of fewer than 16,000 people, had 616 admissions to state-funded drug or alcohol treatment programs during the year. More than 54 percent – 332 – of those people said they had used heroin in the past year, while about 48 percent – 298 – said they had used alcohol.
One of the reports said Massachusetts is one of only four states where an illegal drug – in the Bay State's case, heroin – outpaces alcohol as the most common reason for admission to state-funded substance abuse programs. That report said state-funded treatment programs had 38,594 admissions for heroin alone in 2009, compared to 34,844 involving alcohol.
State hospitalization data from fiscal 2010 show the problem is not limited to any single part of eastern Massachusetts. South of the city, Brockton, Taunton, Plymouth, Stoughton, Quincy, Weymouth, Norwood, Fall River and New Bedford, each saw more than 208 people suffer non-fatal overdoses during the year.
The findings from the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration highlight the state's ongoing struggle to reduce overdoses and deaths from heroin and prescription drugs such as OxyContin.
"We know and we've been saying for years we have an epidemic here in Massachusetts around heroin," said Vic DiGravio, president and CEO of the Association of Behavioral Healthcare, which represents drug and alcohol treatment providers. "That's in part being fed by the whole OxyContin epidemic."
One report found Boston and surrounding counties had a higher rate of emergency room visits involving illegal drugs in 2009 than 10 other major metropolitan areas, including New York City, Detroit and Chicago.
This region also ranked first for emergency room visits involving heroin. The analysis looked at hospital statistics from Norfolk, Plymouth, Middlesex, Essex and Suffolk counties, as well as Rockingham and Strafford counties in New Hampshire.
The report echoes the state's own statistics, which show non-fatal emergency room visits involving heroin or other opiates rose 18 percent statewide from fiscal 2002 to 2007, though the number dipped slightly in that final year.
Most of these visits involve a non-fatal overdose or some other serious emergency, said Michael Botticelli, director of the Bureau of Substance Abuse Services at the state Department of Public Health.
The second federal report said that treatment admission rates for opiates other than heroin, such as OxyContin, were twice as high in New England than any other region of the U.S. in 2009. In Massachusetts, there were 4,734 of these types of state treatment admissions that year, outpacing cocaine.
Nationally, admissions for people struggling with opiates other than heroin spiked 430 percent from 1999 to 2009, the report said.
In Massachusetts, many people first get hooked on prescription painkillers such as OxyContin, then move on to heroin, which is cheaper and more accessible, DiGravio said.
The first federal report said Greater Boston saw 571 emergency room visits involving illegal drugs per 100,000 people in 2009, well above the national rate of 317 per 100,000.
The rate of heroin-related emergency room visits in this region was 251 per 100,000 people, more than three times the national rate, the report said.
The Bureau of Substance Abuse Services also is expanding programs that use the medication Suboxone to treat opiate addiction in community health centers, where young people typically prefer to undergo treatment, Botticelli said.Most people visiting emergency rooms with drugs problems are under 35, Botticelli said.
Just last month, the state opened Independence Academy in Brockton, a recovery high school. The school has the staff and the room to serve as many as 50 drug- or alcohol-addicted students from southeastern Massachusetts.
The state is also expanding training in the use of Narcan, a drug used to counter the effects of an opiate overdose, among addicts and their friends and family.
Coming Monday: Local police and drug treatment professionals blame the ongoing heroin epidemic on the new generation of prescription painkillers, including OxyContin and Percocet, which get people hooked and then get them looking for cheaper alternatives such as heroin.

MONDAY: Heroin epidemic fueled by prescription drug abuse

Paleo in NYC: Where to Eat, How to Shop, and Why to Try It
Our cave-dwelling ancestors got a few things right. Jenna Shannon tells us about the meat-centered paleo diet that got her to give up vegetarianism.
A ready-to-eat paleo meal from Kettlebell Kitchen: grilled hanger steak, butternut-squash purée, and braised collard greens. Photo courtesy of Kettlebell Kitchen.
Jenna Shannon spent 10 years as a vegetarian. Today, she's an evangelist for a way of eating that's all about meat.
She says that while vegetarianism complemented her yoga practice, she knew she wasn't feeling her best. So she did a dietary 180 and started eating paleo. Today, she swears by that meat-and-veggies approach: she's written a book, and she also offers dietary coaching and writes about eating paleo on her website, Lean Machine NYC. For Jenna, the best part is seeing her clients get results. "It just makes my day," she says.
The paleo diet focuses on high-quality proteins, such as meat, fish, and eggs; vegetables; fruits; and healthy fats. It also eliminates grains, dairy, and legumes. Proponents argue that it's the food humans evolved to eat. They're "the foods we were eating before the Agricultural Revolution," says Joe Lopez, president of Kettlebell Kitchen, which delivers ready-to-heat meals to CrossFit gyms across New York City.
But it's not all about cavemen. "The paleo diet, first and foremost, tries to eliminate processed foods and added sugars and things that shouldn't be in your diet," Joe says. While some people's systems "may have evolved to be able to handle grains and dairy," he says many people don't realize these ingredients are causing "inflammation" in their systems.
Both Jenna and Joe say they want others to discover the benefits of eating paleo—things like fewer hunger ups and downs, more steady insulin levels, and better workouts. New York City may not have caves, woolly mammoths, or lost time travelers blundering through the underbrush, but Jenna and Joe have plenty of tips for making the paleo lifestyle work here.
Eating Out
Jenna says that the meat and vegetables nature of the paleo diet actually lends itself well to ordering at a restaurant. Paleo meals are "based on a protein, and that's how chefs build their meals," she says.
She says that more upscale restaurants tend to use the kind of high-quality oils extolled by paleo proponents. But adherents still have to be careful. "There's a lot of research that has shown that canola oils and vegetable oils are not good for you, especially when heated at high temperatures. They oxidize," Joe says. "Some restaurants even reuse oils over and over."
Jenna and Joe both recommend Hu Kitchen, which focuses on unprocessed, natural foods. The chefs often cook with coconut oil, and they use grass-fed meat and other quality ingredients. Joe also enjoys ABC Kitchen, which brings in ingredients from local farms. Jenna's family loves Monster Sushi for the "giant slabs of raw fish." Paleo eaters should look for sashimi on sushi menus, she says.
For people who want to go a little meat-crazy, Jenna says Brazilian churrascaria restaurants—renowned for their endless rounds of roasted meat—can be a fun choice.
Grocery Shopping
"New York has become a great place to be a home cook," Jenna says. "That wasn't always the case; it used to be all about the restaurants." Today, you can find high-quality food at places such as Chelsea Market and Whole Foods, she says. Joe seconds the Whole Foods recommendation "because you can see exactly what you're getting in your meals, and you can find paleo options."
But what you bring home is more important than where you shop. "It's becoming possible for people to get very high-quality meat from very caring farmers and producers," especially in New York State, Jenna says. "That's important: to buy your products from people who really care about you (the consumer), the product they're producing, and the environment."
"Keep your refrigerator stocked with [fruits and vegetables]—especially vegetables," Joe says. That way, you'll be a lot more likely to chow down on something healthy.
Cooking at Home
"The key to [eating paleo] is definitely learning to make some paleo recipes," Jenna says. "If you can learn to make 5 to 10 really kick-ass recipes and they're good," the paleo diet will be a lot easier, she says.
To build a paleo meal, Jenna says "you always want to start with your protein and build from there." Next come vegetables and fats. Joe's list of healthy fats includes coconut oil, macadamia oil, sesame oil, and olive oil.
But don't stop at a single meal when you're cooking. One of the hardest components of eating paleo can be the need to cook more often—hence the niche market for Kettlebell Kitchen's ready-to-eat paleo meals. When you can't stop for fast food or microwave a frozen dinner, it's more important to be prepared with your own healthy cooking. That's why Joe recommends doubling up on ingredient prep. "If I steam a bunch of broccoli and carrots the night before, I'll put it in a scramble with eggs for breakfast," he says.
Jenna says that a lot of recipes are actually pretty simple because they're focused on high-quality ingredients that taste great all on their own. "You wouldn't want to mess with a strawberry because it's fantastic," she says. You could say that's the whole point of the paleo diet. It's less about living like a caveman and more about regaining our ancestors' simple appreciation for food.
When she's not writing, Rachel pillages her local library, plays board games, and cooks (but never, ever bakes).

Howard Carter's 1922 discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun, the boy-king of ancient Egypt, stunned the world with its treasures. Although most of the historical focus is on the famous golden treasures found in the tomb, not to be overlooked are the precious finery—the belts, collars, head coverings, gloves, and garments embellished with embroidery, beads, and woven bands—that were indicative of the life and times of the Pharaoh.
Described by Howard Carter as "…a gala robe," the splendid linen Tunic of Tutankhamun – after three thousand years -- still bears traces of once-colorful embroidery and woven embellishments. Handwoven replicas of the patterns (illustrated below) depict that "In their pristine state they must have been gorgeous pieces of color."
The cloth and clothing of New Kingdom Egypt flourished with new, unusual techniques and material that distinguished them from the plain linens of earlier times. These textiles suggest that other cultures, through contact and conquest, influenced the weavings. From her research at Cairo's Egyptian Museum and other world-class museum collections, Ms. Hoskins presents the art, craft and meaning of the textiles that existed in Tutankhamun's world. .
Nancy Arthur Hoskins is author of three books on textiles, including "The Coptic Tapestry Albums and the Archaeologist of Antinoé, Albert Gayet," as well as numerous articles; and chapters about Egyptian textiles contributed to four other books. She is a frequent lecturer for national and international guilds and conferences; in 2009-10, she led a Textiles of Egypt Tour. In 2011, the Journal of the American Research Center in Egypt published her paper, Woven Patterns on the Tutankhamun Textiles. She holds a Master's Degree in Fine Arts/Weaving, Art Education, and Art History from the University of Oregon and taught college weaving from 1981 to 1996.
The Oregon Chapter of the American Research Center in Egypt is a private, nonprofit organization that supports research on all aspects of Egyptian history and culture, fosters broader knowledge among the general public, and strengthens American-Egyptian cultural ties.
The Middle East Studies Center at Portland State University promotes understanding of the people, cultures, languages and religions of the Middle East. As a National Resource Center for Middle East Studies under the U.S. Department of Education's Title VI program, the Center serves as a resource on issues pertaining to the Middle East through activities that reach students and scholars, as well as businesses, educators, and the media. The Middle East Studies Center supports academic conferences, workshops, cultural events, lectures, and a resource library.

Clontech Laboratories, Inc. Releases the SMARTer™ Ultra Low RNA Kit for Illumina® Sequencing
Mar 31, 2011, 07:00 ET
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Clontech Laboratories, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Takara Bio Inc., today announced the launch of its SMARTer Ultra Low RNA Kit for Illumina Sequencing, which was developed in collaboration with Illumina, Inc. This kit uses a modified version of Clontech's patented SMART™ (Switching Mechanism at 5' End of RNA Template) technology to facilitate transcriptome analysis from as little as 100 pg of input RNA.
Carol Lou, General Manager of Clontech Laboratories, Inc., comments: "Transcriptomics is rapidly becoming a key tool for biomedical researchers, but to date its use has been limited by sample size requirements. As the developer of SMART technology, the leading technology for full-length cDNA library construction from small samples, Clontech is excited to work with Illumina, the leader in the field of next-generation sequencing, to develop a kit which enables researchers to obtain transcriptome information from ultra-low RNA inputs."
Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) has revolutionized gene expression profiling, enabling researchers to characterize a cell's entire transcriptional activity at the nucleotide level. This ability to analyze all expressed genes both qualitatively and quantitatively, without assumptions (no a priori requirements for probe design), is leading to many significant advances in the field of biomedical research, including new findings in the fields of development, cancer research, plant biology, and neurobiology.
James Knowles, Professor of Psychiatry at the USC Keck School of Medicine, was an early access tester of the kit and states that "We have found the SMARTer Ultra Low RNA protocol and kit to be scientifically enabling, allowing us to ask questions about the nature of gene expression in individual cells that was not previously possible. The ability to assay the expression of individual neurons from brain slices, which we have done, allows one to correlate changes in the electrophysiology of each cell to changes in gene expression."
The SMARTer Ultra Low RNA Kit for Illumina Sequencing has been designed and validated to prepare cDNA samples for sequencing on all of Illumina's sequencing instruments, including HiSeq™ 2000. This kit greatly reduces handling of the RNA sample, thereby minimizing the risk of sample loss and preserving the original message. The efficient incorporation of known sequences at both ends of the cDNA during first strand synthesis enables researchers to perform the entire protocol in a single tube, without a separate adaptor ligation step. Moreover, SMART's high efficiency and sensitivity permits the use of very limited quantities of starting material—as little as 100 pg of total RNA—from a variety of sources. The combination of SMART technology's ability to handle very small quantities of RNA with Illumina's unique combination of long and short reads, single and paired-end sequencing, and capacity for tens of millions to billions of reads per run allows you to annotate coding SNPs, discover transcript isoforms, characterize splice junctions, and determine the relative abundance of transcripts from even the smallest samples.

I once saw a house in a photograph, a wooden house which angles made my heart beat faster. I don't know where the house is located, nor can I find the site where I saw it. But if I come across it again, I'll know it's partly mine.
I didn't only see a house, though. I saw possibilities for new angles in a knitted sweater. The result was The Architect, made as a tribute to the unknown architect of a house somewhere out there. A baby cardigan and a hat, constructed somewhat similarly to the Angle cardigan, yet differently. I would guess that those of you who enjoyed knitting Angle, will enjoy this one just as much.
The cardigan is knit in one piece, with grafted shoulder seams. The grafting is written specifically for grafting garter stitch, and it is all described in detail, so there is no need to worry. I love those magic, invisible seams, and I suspect you will too, after trying them. The hat is worked from the bottom up, and the crown is seamed to maintain the lovely angles all the way to the top.
The pattern includes directions for sizes 3 (6, 12, 24) months and can be had both at Ravelry and in my store - and of course as a kit with all the yarn needed for those who'd like that. Enjoy!
The Architect [@ravelry] specs:
Pattern: The Architect (Arkitekten) by Tora Frøseth
Size shown: 3 months
Needles: 3.0 mm and 2.5 mm

The Environmental Crisis, Can it be Solved?
- Articles
In the United States, almost 50 percent of the electricity comes from coal, a sedimentary rock that pollutes quite a lot. A way to completely eliminate the use of polluting energy sources to fuel cars and to produce electricity should be, in my opinion, humans' number one priority to solving the problems in our world. There are many types of ways to achieve clean energy, as well as many new ideas being constantly formulated, and imagined by people around the world, and I think that's great! A method that scientists are estimating will take many years to perfect is named nuclear fusion. This is initially a way of recreating the sun on earth in a, hopefully, safe way. Yet in my eyes, I would much rather see the use of methods involving the actual sun, the waves, and the wind. Solar panels are increasingly becoming more efficient as science progresses as it seems to do quite often, and turbines in the ocean that harness the strength and power of waves could be a possible way to collect energy. As I journey around France every summer, I gaze up out of the car window to watch the impressive wind turbines "éolienne" and I hope that someday, the technology will allow us humans to be able to rely on weather, just like how the earth in a way is relying on us to respect it more than we are now. Depletion of the ozone layer is dangerous for all life on earth. The largest recorded hole was recorded in 2006 and was larger than Antarctica. So lets get a move one with this clean energy!

BudBurdick on Family Tree Circles
view: full | list
Journals and Posts
Looking for Nathaniel Burdick of Southern tier NY
Nathaniel Burdick, who would be my gr gr grandfather, would have been born circa 1800. Family legend has it that he was maried to a full blooded Native American, (Margaret Patterson ?) . Also, from the biase existing during that day, it has been suggested that anyone marrying an Indian was disowned from the family. Could that be why I cannot find referenc to the parents of his son, Nathan, My gr grandfather. I estimate Nathaniels birth by records that Nathan was born in 1827, in Frewsburg, NY and that he (Nathan) was listed in the 1850 census in Frewsburg as age 26. with a brother ? Joshua at age 21, and a Philena (mother ?) age 47.
Some married names found in my search (female descendants ) are Southworth, Siggins, Henry, Mowell.
If any of these descendants can furnish more clues, I would appreciate hearing from them.
PS - Nathan fought in the Civil War, had 10 children, and is buried in W.Hickory, Pa.
Much of his life and his family's was spent in Forest County, Pa, and in the lumber business.
Looking for Nathaniel Burdick of Pa/NY
The branch of my family tree originates in Forest County and McKean Copunty, Pa, birthplaces of my parents.
I have traced back to my gr. grandfather, Nathan Burdick, who was listed in the Frewsburg, NY 1850 census as being 26 years of age
Nathan was born in 1827, fought with the 83rd Pa Infantry in the Civil War. He fathered 10 children, raising 13, and was in the lumber business. He is buried in W. Hickory, Pa.
Robert W. Burdick Sr. - b. 1854 - eldest son - my grandfather.
Robert W Burdick Jr. - b. 1890 - Henry\'s Mills, Pa d. 1966 my father- married May Belle Phillips ca 1910
Maybelle Delp Phillips - b 1889 Kane, Pa d. 1970 - my mother.
I am hoping to find more information about Nathaniel Burdick (Nathan\'s father; my gr.gr. grandfather) and
verify that he was married to a full blooded Native American, and how he came to w. Pennsylvania or W.
New York.
As a result of my inquires, I have enjoyed correspondence with several distant cousins whom I neverknew existed, and will pass along any information I receive, on to them.
It has been suggested that in the biase that existed back in that day, that anyone marrying an Indian would be disowned by the family, and that could explain the lack of records regarding Nathaniel.
Can anyone add to that ?
Thanks for any information.
Homer ( Bud) Burdick
Looking for Harrington information
In researching my (Burdick) geneology, I had correspondence with a Joel Harrington, who mentioned that he had an ancestor named Philena.
In an 1850 census record from Frewsburg, NY (Chatauqua County) there is named:
Nathan Burdick - age 26
Joshua burdick - age 21
Philena - age 47
I am trying to find more about Philena.
Was she married to Nathaniel Burdick ? ( I am assuming by the age in the census that she could be Nathan's mother )
Was her last name Harrington ?
Was she a Native American ?
Does anyone have a current e mail for Joel Harrington ) the last I had was [email protected], but it has evidently been changed as I can no longer reach him at that address. He had advised me (in 2005) that he had family in the Frewsburg area and the Philena mentioned above.
Knowledge about Philena might lead me to more about Nathaniel burdick, my gr. gr. grandfather.
Appreciate any reply/info

I'm sure most Xperia Sola owners are focused on the part of this where they get Ice Cream Sandwich, but I'm actually more interested in the addition of "glove mode."
This new feature utilizes Sony's existing "Floating touch" technology introduced with the Sola. Floating touch allows you to highlight links in the browser without having to actually touch the screen and while that is a neat trick I don't know that it was going to sell anyone on the Sola.
Glove mode on the other hand could be a tremendous benefit for folks that live in less balmy climates. As a Wisconsin resident there's a good 3-4 months out of the year that gloves are basically a necessity and as a daily bike commuter they are critical for me even a bit beyond that.
As you can see in the demo video below the addition of glove mode should allow you to peck at your screen regardless of the thickness of your gloves. It is triggered by default when you unlock the phone while wearing a glove which is clever since having to leave it on or navigate somewhere to turn it on would negate the convenience of it.
In glove mode a cursor ring will show you where the touch is being registered so you aren't aimlessly poking around. If you decide to pull a glove off the screen will register your touch as normal so no need to disable it, although that's just a matter of unlocking the phone again with your bare finger.
It is your finger inside the glove and not the glove itself that is being registered so this will still be far more accurate and responsive than the old resistive screens that some of us remember.
I realize this will break mostly across geographic boundaries, but does anyone else find glove mode compelling? Clearly the core feature set of the phone needs to be there, but as it gets harder and harder to differentiate your hardware I could see this being a tipping point feature for some.

A BlankTV Feature Presentation:
We Came From Wolves - "Cope"
We wanted a very indie movie feel for the video. The song is essentially a love song, but also about how poisonous the effects of a small town can be for someone with ambition and desire. It's about the conflicts of finding the beauty amongst the mundane but essentially needing to break through negativity in search of a more positive environment and thanking those who, either in a positive or negative sense, woke you up to this realisation. In Tom Mitchell, we had a brilliant young cinematographer who has just completed his first full film (Kubricks) with Dean Kavanagh and his stock will surely rise to it's deserved place soon enough, we have worked with Tom many times before as he is also and incredibly talented engineer and producer and more importantly a very close friend.
He drew influence from the song and film Submarine (Richard Ayoade). The story in the video is of a boy, played by Lewis Jackson, who finds life and socialising difficult, your typical loner type. He also has a hostile home life with single dad Michael Skinner, who has a fondness for the bottle. He then spies a girl played by Laura Ferguson. The next scenes are their blossoming friendship all set in the beautiful surroundings of our hometown of Perth which is aesthetically perfect on the eye, but in substance leaves a lot to be desired (the inspiration of the song). As things look to be changing for the better, it seems his caution with people is merited when he see the girl with another boy who is much more conventional than he in his oversized parka and unkempt hair. He then spirals out of control and has an image/attitude overhaul much to the detriment of their relationship and our video ends on the note that not everything has a happy ending. We were blessed with some brilliant natural lighting and great scenery and settings. Although there is editing throughout to enhance what we shot, the incredible talents of the young actors, our director and the natural elements meant it was all just slight tweaks to bring the best out of what we had captured.
We Came From Wolves are a post-rock band from Perth, Scotland. The four piece are all about harmonic, melodic soundscapes with hook-laden, euphoric choruses.
They have rallied an enthusiastic following after a series of blistering live sets during their European tour in 2012, whilst gathering support from radio luminaries Ally McCrae and Jim Gellatly.
In April 2012 they signed to Engineer Records, who have worked with established artists such as Funeral for a Friend and Gaslight Anthem. After headlining stages at Doune the Rabbit Hole festival, they have begun working on a single to be released in December. Their debut EP, Cope, will be released September 2012 through Engineer Records, alongside a full UK co-headline tour with A Plastic Rose.

Former Union Mayor's Son Charged In Parents' Deaths
Former Union Mayor's Son Charged In Parents' Deaths
FLORENCE, Ky. —
A Boone County man is accused of shooting and killing his parents earlier this year.
Michael Moore was charged with two counts of murder and one count each of tampering with physical evidence, possession of a handgun by a convicted felon and falsely reporting an incident.
The Boone County Sheriff's Department said that Moore caused the deaths of his father, former Union mayor Warren S. Moore, Jr., and his mother, Madge Moore, by shooting them each in the head on June 14.
Additionally, investigators said, Moore destroyed, mutilated, concealed, removed or altered physical evidence and made false statements about what happened.
Moore was hospitalized with a gunshot wound at the scene, apparently self-inflicted.

Cold snap delivers rare winter treat
Skaters take to the ice in Darien
DARIEN -- After a weeklong cold snap, Saturday's clear skies and steady sunshine drew families to Gorham's Pond for what has become an increasingly rare treat given the recent warming trend of New England winters: outdoor ice skating.
Darien resident Jennifer Montanaro spent the afternoon gliding across the ice with her husband and 10-year-old daughter.
"We first came here when we moved here about 10 years ago," Montanaro said. "We haven't been able to skate in a couple years because it hasn't frozen over. So this is really a treat since it's supposed to be 40 degrees Monday."
Temperatures plummeted to the single digits last week in what was Fairfield County's first sustained period of below-freezing temperatures since winter 2010. Days of biting wind and icy roads gave way to a clear, bright afternoon Saturday, and skaters ventured out onto the picturesque Gorham's Pond with their hockey sticks.
"There are no boundaries," Montanaro said of the large pond, which is bordered on one side by Goodwives River Road. "Skating outside is old fashioned, a little bit of nostalgia. The nice thing about this is, unless you live here and have a canoe, you never really get to come here and see all this."
Norwalk resident Taryn McCarthy grew up near Gorham's Pond. On Saturday he brought his 10-year-old daughter, Marley, out onto the ice for a play date with one of her friends.
"We've been coming here since I was a kid," McCarthy said. "It's just great to be outside, it's good exercise."
Darien father John Novak pried his three daughters away from their electronic devices Saturday for an afternoon skating session. It was the first time on ice for Millie, the family's 1-year-old yellow Labrador, who barked enthusiastically as she slid across the pond in pursuit of Keating, 10, Mimi Sue, 8, and Annabelle, 6.
"We're outside and not inside playing on our Apples," Novak said. "We moved here about three years ago and we're down here every time it freezes over."
The ice will soon be melting at Gorham's Pond, with temperatures expected to reach 56 degrees by Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service.

Topic: Boba Fett vs. Samus Aran
Boba must have been the model for Samus Aran from the Metroid games. There are just far too many similarities.
They are both bounty hunters.
They both have very similar armor.
Their arms have weapons in them.
They fly a similar ship.
They both use grappling ropes.
They are both of a dubious gender which could be female.
Their names even seem similar.
The only real difference is that Boba has a jet pack on the back.
I think that Boba's outfit is better looking and I like the fact that there is a jetpack. If Samus had a jetpack I'd have to choose her over Boba.
In battle I'd have to give the advantage to Samus because of the weaponry. As far as a favorite, it's a bit of a toss up, but I'm leaning toward Boba Fett.


text: The Ignatius Critical Editions Ignatius Critical Editions – Classic Literature, Critical Reading What is the 'Ignatius Critical Editions' Series? Ignatius Critical Editions is a new series of books from the respected Ignatius Press publishers. The goal of the series is to counter the troubling trend in critical editions of classic literary works – which is to apply an agenda of modernism and post-modernism to the reading of these works and discount the traditional approach. The Ignatius Critical Editions series aims, instead, to concentrate on critical examinations informed by our Judeo-Christian heritage. Each book in the series includes the full text of a literary work, as well as an introduction to the text and contemporary literary criticism to foster understanding and discussion of the meaning of the literature. Some titles may also include classic critical essays. The books are ideal for professors and teachers who would like to use the literature within their classrooms. However they are also great for any individual who wishes to read and understand the great works of Western Civilization. Why Was the Ignatius Critical Editions Series Created? From an interview with the editor of the Ignatius Critical Editions (ICEs), Joseph Pearce, an author and a professor at Ave Maria University in Florida: "The idea for the Ignatius Critical Editions arose from the frustration I felt at the pernicious nonsense that is published as 'criticism' in the standard critical editions of great works of literature. Specifically I was annoyed at the plethora of feminism, 'queer theory' and 'gender studies' that is seemingly omnipresent in mainstream editions. I resented ordering these editions as set texts for my students at Ave Maria University. Why should my students be affronted with this rubbish? Such were my thoughts and this was the genesis of the idea for the ICEs. . . It seemed to me that what was needed was a new range of critical editions in which tradition-oriented criticism would take precedence over the fads and fashions of postmodernity. Such a series would offer a real choice to Christian and other non-secularist professors and students." The Problem with Modernism The Catholic Encyclopedia describes the error of modernism: It is nothing less than the perversion of dogma. Manifold are the degrees and shades of modernist doctrine on the question of our relations with God. But no real modernist keeps the Catholic notions of dogma intact. Are you doubtful as to whether a writer or a book is modernist in the formal sense of the word? Verify every statement about dogma; examine his treatment of its origin, its nature, its sense, its authority. You will know whether you are dealing with a veritable modernist or not, according to the way in which the Catholic conception of dogma is travestied or respected. On the other hand, as the publisher of the ICE series describes, "The Ignatius Critical Editions represent a tradition-oriented alternative to popular textbook series such as the Norton Critical Editions or Oxford World Classics, and are designed to concentrate on traditional readings of the Classics of world literature. . . Edited by acclaimed literary biographer Joseph Pearce, the Ignatius Critical Editions will ensure that traditional moral readings of the works are given prominence, instead of the feminist, or deconstructionist readings that often proliferate in other series of 'critical editions'. As such, they represent a genuine extension of consumer-choice, enabling educators, students and lovers of good literature to buy editions of classic literary works without having to 'buy into' the ideologies of secular fundamentalism." About the Editor Joseph Pearce, who conceived the idea for the Ignatius Critical Editions, is the editor of the series and has written the introductions to some titles in the line.

She returns home, and so does Kirk -- with two po...

Author Notes: I always look forward to spring when Vidalia onions are in season. I like to saute them in a little oil and sometimes butter until they are brown, soft, and sweet. In this recipe, I added chopped garlic and roasted red peppers, cut to about the same size as the onions. The longer you cook this, the better it gets. Tonight I served it over some simply grilled fish. (local fresh-caught fluke, purchased directly from the fisherman at the farmers' market yesterday...amazing.) It's good as a topping for crostini--brush the sliced bread with a little oilve oil, toast it, layer on some fresh ricotta cheese, and put this on top. It can be added to pasta sauce, used as a filling for an omelet, a topping for hamburger, or served with roast potatoes. - drbabs —drbabs
Food52 Review: This smoky, sweet and sour concoction has myriad uses: as drbabs says in her headnote, it would be great on crostini or over fish; we also think it would be killer with roast pork. The longer you cook the confit, the more the onions, garlic and peppers melt into each other, so that eventually it's hard to discern what's what -- and as a whole, it's delicious. We used sweet smoked paprika, but if you're looking for a kick, go for picante! - A&M —The Editors
Serves: never enough
generous tablespoons good olive oil
large vidalia or other sweet onion, cut into approximately 1 inch pieces
red (and yellow) bell peppers, roasted, skins removes, and cut into 1 inch by 1/2 inch (approx) pieces
cloves garlic, finely chopped (but not too fine)
generous pinch of salt
tablespoons sherry or red wine vinegar
teaspoon smoked paprika
salt and pepper to taste
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, peppers and garlic, and saute, stirring frequently, until softened. You might need to raise the heat somewhat, because you want everything to brown.
- Once the vegetables have started to brown, stir in just enough vinegar to deglaze the pan and scrape up the fond on the bottom of the pan. Stir in paprika, reduce heat to very low, cover, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are browned and caramelized. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.
- You can keep any leftovers in the refrigerator for a few days. (It never lasts more than a few days in my house.)

text: As a possible extension of the Harman special sheet film production scheme, is there any interest in something similar in FP4/HP5 in 70mm perforated? Having run it past the planners at Harman, they are prepared to cut it as a special order for Silverprint. We would have to order a minimum of 60 cans of 30 metres, in either film type, and keeping it priced as competitively as possible it would sell at £80.00 + VAT per roll. This price is not significantly more than the equivalent sq. metres in 35mm 30 metres, so Harman are being supportive here. We would take a chance in holding some stock, but would like around 60-70% of it covered with committed orders to go ahead. When we first discussed it, Simon Galley estimated it would need a £20-30k order to kick it off - this then came down to 120 cans, so 60 cans is a big concession from Harman. So is there enough of a user base in 70mm to keep a regular supply of the format on tap, in very popular emulsions? We await the response with interest.

From The Files Of December 4, 1980'80 McConnellsburg firemen were called out at 3:00 a.m. on Monday to a barn fire, 1/2 miles west of the borough line on old Route 30, but were unable to save the structure which was engulfed in flames before the trucks could get there. The cause of the blaze is under investigation. The barn is owned by Forrest and Paul Mellott, Edward Palmer and H.J. Culler and was rented by Gerald L. Culler, who used it to house a number of pigs and for hay storage. The pigs were saved from the blaze, but the hay was destroyed.
