Genealogy in Tarsia
If you know (or you think) that your ancestors were from Tarsia, you could find info about your Italian family at Registrar of Vital Statistics in the City Office or at the parishes.
Registry offices in Calabria and in Cosenza province were established in early 1800: it means that you could find information in Tarsia registrar as of that date.
Before to start your genealogy research in Tarsia, we suggest you to read our tips for your search . They are useful to search in Italy and in Tarsia too.
In the next picture you can see the demographic trends in Tarsia from the Italian Unification (1861).
It could be important to know if the last name you are investigating is a frequent surname in Tarsia. As more your surname is common in Tarsia, as more it could be difficult to find the right info about your ancestors in Tarsia archives if you have not exact dates.
It could be useful for you to know that some of the most common surnames in Cosenza province are:
Aiello, Barone, Bruno, Caputo, Caruso, Chiappetta, De Luca, De Marco, De Rose, Esposito, Falcone, Ferraro, Filice, Fusaro, Gabriele, Gagliardi, Gallo, Garofalo, Gaudio, Gencarelli, Gentile, Giordano, Greco, Guido, Leone, Longo, Madeo, Marino, Martino, Mazzei, Morrone, Nicoletti, Nigro, Palermo, Perri, Perrone, Porco, Presta, Pugliese, Rizzo, Romano, Ruffolo, Russo, Salerno, Santoro, Spadafora, Sposato, Veltri.
Church archives in Cosenza province may instead contain even older information, but they are far less accessible from abroad (and almost impossible by email).
Then,parishes send information not easily.
If you have the opportunity to visit Tarsia and Cosenza province, you could plan to investigate churches' archives by yourself, but from abroad is very difficult to obtain any result unless you find a reliable local help.
Another important source of information is the "Archivio di Stato" (National archive) in Reggio Calabria.
In any case, never give up! Probably the distance from your country and Italy, some difficulties in understanding and in translation, could complicate your search but this should not discourage you.
It's important to plan your activities to carry on with simple goals (eg. search for a single date of birth, the name of an ancestor, the date of a marriage, etc.)
If you want to discuss with other people interested in genealogy research in Tarsia, or if you have questions regarding your family in Tarsia, just leave a message below

I am looking for the the recorded last name of a couple married on the date October 17,1907 in Tarsia, Calabria Italy. They are my Grandparents,(both deceased) with the first names of Francesco and Terisina. Terisina's last name may have been Giunti.
For unknown reasons the last name was changed upon entering the processing center at Ellis island in the USA on or about the year 1915.
Any help with a sir name that was recorded when this couple entered marriage on October 17,1907 in Tarsia would be appreciated.
Many Thanks,
I am looking for information about my great grand father Carmine Chimenti. He was born Sept 13, 1873 I believe in Tarsia. He married Rosa Marino in 1890. She had a 2 year old daughter Maria Rosaria Colletta. Maria Rosaria was born Oct 9, 1888. Family legend tells us Rosa was raped by Frank Colletta and Carmine Chimenti married her to save face in 1890. It was scandalous since Rosa was 33 and Carmine was 17 in 1890 upon their marriage. I believe Carmines family was from aristocracy. We have a photo of him in a royal outfit. Carmine and Rosa had 2 more children Antonio (born 1893) and Vincenzo (Jimmy) born 1895. Maria Rosaria came to the us in 1901. By herself. The rest of the Chimenti family came from Tarsia in 1904. I am stuck. Any help you can give will be appreciated
I am looking for a relative named Frank Tarsia, or Francesco Tarsia. I am not sure when he was born but he had a son born in November 9th of 1919. His name was also Frank Paul Tarsia. I am looking for the name of his mother so that I can continue researching her line. Thank you very much. Carolyn

New York Protecting Defaulters Stalls Rebound: MortgagesPrashant Gopal
New Yorkers Paul and Angelica Kashman, declared in default on their mortgage in July 2010 and foreclosed on by Wells Fargo & Co. in February 2011, say they aren't deadbeats.
"We always knew that when we get into a court of law and show that we have all the information and backup, the truth will come out," said Paul Kashman, 37, a manager in the hospitality industry. The couple, stuck in limbo by legal bureaucracy, says they were mistakenly pushed into foreclosure, and are eager now to save their home, using court mediation.
Their case is among 72,000 pending in the New York system, accounting for a quarter of the civil caseload, and highlighting the strength and weakness of the state foreclosure process. While borrowers have protections unavailable in many other states, it takes more than 1,000 days for banks to repossess a home, stalling a housing recovery by keeping pressure on values for years to come as a constant drip of distressed properties enter the sales market.
The New York area was one of only two in the country to post year-over-year home price declines in the latest Case-Shiller 20-city index. Homebuyers also could lose, with the Federal Housing Finance Agency considering a fee increase to compensate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for doing business in New York and four other states with slow, costly foreclosures.
"New York suffers from what appears to be altruism, in that it postpones foreclosures as long as possible -- the problem is that altruism can be expensive," said Anthony B. Sanders, an economics professor at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. "It slows down the housing market and it results in lenders being almost unwilling to lend. New buyers will pay the price for this."
Pending Foreclosures
New York's pending foreclosures are more than a quarter of its civil caseload, according to a 2012 report from the state's chief administrator of the courts. New York requires lenders and borrowers to come to the bargaining table to work out modified payments or other foreclosure alternatives before a case can move to litigation. The average age of a case in the settlement program was 15 months old and the courts oversaw an estimated 77,000 settlement conferences in 2012.
It's one of five judicial foreclosure states, including New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida and Illinois, in which home repossessions require court review that the FHFA is targeting. The agency has said it's seeking to compensate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac by bringing their pricing of risk more in line with how private lenders operate. The FHFA last year had the two government-controlled companies almost double the annual fees they charge for guaranteeing mortgage bonds, with increases averaging 0.2 percentage point.
DeMarco Argues
It's considering imposing one-time upfront fees in the five states of between 0.15 percent and 0.3 percent of the loan amount. The average cost per day to carry foreclosures in New York is 112 percent of the national average, according to an analysis by the agency.
"If those states were to adjust their laws and requirements sufficiently to move their foreclosure timelines and costs more in line with the national average, the state-level, risk-based fees imposed under the planned approach would be lowered or eliminated," Edward J. DeMarco, the agency's acting director, wrote in a September notice on the proposal. "Unusual costs associated with practices outside of the norm in the rest of the country should be borne by the citizens of that particular state," he wrote.
The agency, which will announce its decision as soon as April, is pressuring states to speed up the process by removing safeguards for homeowners, New York's state bank regulator said in a Nov. 26 letter to DeMarco opposing the plan.
Perverse Incentive
"The proposal would create the perverse incentive that states should either give up the fight against mortgage fraud and roll back consumer protections or face the consequences of higher mortgage rates for consumers," Benjamin Lawsky, superintendent of the New York Department of Financial Services, wrote in the letter. "The proposal would also shift the cost of the failures of lenders and servicers onto New York State borrowers."
For the Kashmans, who live with their two children in the two-bedroom brick row home in Brooklyn's Dyker Heights neighborhood that they bought for $368,000 in 2003, the clogged foreclosure system has allowed them to stay in their home, even as it delayed resolution of their case.
Modification Payments
They defaulted in 2010 after cutting their monthly payments to Wells Fargo based on a modification agreement they said they signed and returned. The bank later said it never received the documents, so considered the lowered payments a default. The bank for years prevented the case from entering mediation, adding it to the backlog of thousands of inactive lawsuits across the state, according to Aaron Jacobs-Smith, a staff attorney at MFY Legal Services Inc. who represents the Kashmans.
Wells Fargo offered a permanent modification to the Kashmans on Jan. 17, the Kashmans said. The couple, who said they haven't decided whether to accept, recently began meeting with bank representatives as part of a pilot program in Brooklyn's Kings County that allows willing homeowners to begin settlement talks in stalled lawsuits.
Outside of the court's oversight, the Kashmans' negotiations with Wells Fargo have been a bureaucratic carousel, requiring them to continually resend documents they had previously faxed, according to Jacobs-Smith. While the couple said they successfully completed three trial payment plans, the mortgage servicer didn't convert any of them into permanent modifications.
Judicial Intervention
They've been considering filing a request for judicial intervention by paying a $95 fee to reanimate the case that has languished since it was filed in early 2011, Jacobs-Smith said.
Tom Goyda, a spokesman for San Francisco-based Wells Fargo, said the bank didn't advance the Kashmans' case while it was working through modification options for them.
"The important thing is still that we were able to identify an option that should allow the Kashmans to stay in the home and end the foreclosure process," Goyda said in an e-mail.
The Kashmans are part of New York's so-called shadow-docket, which includes about 6,000 inactive filings in Brooklyn and Queens alone. Plaintiff attorneys stopped pushing their cases forward into the formal court docket after an October 2010 rule required them to personally vouch for the accuracy of their mortgage servicer clients' documentation.
State attorneys general across the U.S. had just began investigating allegations that mortgage servicers hired workers to sign thousands of foreclosure documents they didn't verify or even read. They reached a $25 billion settlement in February with the top five banks over the practice known as robosigning.
Judicial States
Foreclosures, which slowed after the investigations, are picking back up in judicial states such as New York and New Jersey. While foreclosure starts declined 11 percent in December from a year earlier in the U.S., they jumped 35 percent in New York, which had the fourth biggest percentage increase behind New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Kentucky, according to data provider RealtyTrac.
While the courts are taking action to clear the backlog, speed isn't the only priority, said Judge Judy Harris Kluger, chief of policy and planning for the New York State courts.
"I like efficiency as much as everybody else but it is not going to drive everything we do," Kluger said. "Just because it's efficient doesn't mean it's fair or right."
Settlement Conferences
In New York, court-appointed referees preside over settlement conferences, setting deadlines for providing and evaluating modification applications and documents and following up to see both sides meet them. While more homeowners should receive loan workouts, many are unemployed or too far behind on payments to qualify, she said.
Since April, about 60 percent of the 5,553 cases that completed mediation moved into litigation. Borrowers received modifications in 653 of the cases, and about 400 borrowers were approved for short sales, where the borrower sells a property for less than is owed, or another foreclosure alternative, Kluger said.
Litigation can add a few more years to the process, said Schuyler Kraus, a partner in the New York office of Hinshaw & Culbertson who represents mortgage servicers in contested foreclosures.
"The courts are backlogged," Kraus said. "There are a lot of parties who have a lot of different motivations and needs and it's just ended up as a morass."
Time Consuming
While litigation is time consuming, it's often where homeowners find the best resolution, said Bruce Richardson, a Manhattan-based foreclosure defense attorney. A Brooklyn man Richardson represents remains in his house six years after going into foreclosure and two years after the bank acquired it, he said. Richardson is now battling to overturn the sheriff sale in the appellate division.
"The byproduct of an aggressive and zealous defense is that the homeowner gets to stay in the home much longer than they otherwise could have and actually gets to keep his home," Richardson said.
In New York it took 1,089 days on average to foreclose in the fourth quarter, the longest of any state and more than five times the pace in hard-hit Arizona, a non-judicial state that has worked through much of its backlog, according to data from RealtyTrac.
Arizona Prices
While the housing bust was deeper in Arizona than New York, distressed inventory is drying up there as investors purchase foreclosed properties and convert them into rentals. U.S. home prices climbed 5.6 percent in the 12 months through November, according to figures released today by the FHFA. The 12-month advance was led by a 15 percent jump in the region that includes Arizona, Nevada and Colorado. The smallest gain was in the area that includes New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, where values rose 0.5 percent.
Speed isn't the best way to judge the effectiveness of a state's foreclosure process, said Diane Thompson, attorney with the National Consumer Law Center based in Boston.
"It's also a question of what kind of system of justice we want in this country," Thompson said. "It's much faster to execute everybody that the police thought was guilty of a crime. It's faster, more efficient and would probably reduce the overall level of crime. But as a society we don't think that's an appropriate exercise of judicial authority."
Lenders in Arizona can auction a borrower's home as soon as 91 days after filing a notice of trustee sale. Borrowers often have little time or leverage to challenge lenders who improperly reject them for modifications and may never know whether the lender has standing to seize the home because it doesn't have to prove it owns the loan, Beverly B. Parker, manager of the consumer housing and public benefits unit at Southern Arizona Legal Aid based in Tucson, said.
"Yes, it's a much faster process here," Parker said. "But there has to be a balance. You can't give all the ammunition to one side and assume they'll use it right. They don't."

The Mets' Acquire Catcher Kelly Shoppach
Jason Frank
The New York Mets have acquired 32-year old catcher Kelly Shoppach from the Boston Red Sox for a player to be named later. Shoppach is hitting .250, with five homers and 17 RBI this season. He has spent his entire eight year career in the American League having stints with Tampa Bay, Cleveland, and twice with the Red Sox. It will be interesting to see how he fairs in the National League. Josh Thole has been struggling this year, and the Mets are in dying need of a catcher. It was only in 2008 when Shoppach blasted a career high 21 home runs with Cleveland. Look for Rob Johnson to be sent down to Triple-A, but he could be called back up when the rosters expand in 18 days. If Shoppach can provide half of what he did in 2008, then this trade is a win.

New kind of magnetism discovered: Experiments demonstrate 'quantum spin liquid'
Following up on earlier theoretical predictions, MIT researchers have now demonstrated experimentally the existence of a fundamentally new kind of magnetic behavior, adding to the two previously known states of magnetism.
"We're showing that there is a third fundamental state for magnetism," says MIT professor of physics Young Lee. The experimental work showing the existence of this new state, called a quantum spin liquid (QSL), is reported this week in the journal Nature, with Lee as the senior author and Tianheng Han, who earned his PhD in physics at MIT earlier this year, as lead author.
The QSL is a solid crystal, but its magnetic state is described as liquid: Unlike the other two kinds of magnetism, the magnetic orientations of the individual particles within it fluctuate constantly, resembling the constant motion of molecules within a true liquid.
There's a second article on this topic at Phys.org as well;
For newly discovered 'quantum spin liquid', the beauty is in its simplicity
(Phys.org)—A research team including scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has confirmed long-standing suspicions among physicists that electrons in a crystalline structure called a kagome (kah-go-may) lattice can form a "spin liquid," a novel quantum state of matter in which the electrons' magnetic orientation remains in a constant state of change.
See also:
MIT discovers a new state of matter, a new kind of magnetism
New Kind of Magnetism Discovered: Experiments Demonstrate 'quantum Spin Liquid'
These 'strong interactions (between electrons of this newly created crystal matter) allow for long-range quantum entanglement' (according to Lee), which is where two electrons (an entangled pair) will vibrate in concert even when separated across large distances - as I read it, particles on one side of the crystal affected the magnetic moment of particles on the other side instantaneously, and always in a state of flux. Always a bit interesting when a 'new fundamental state' of anything is discovered, even if it's largely academic.

Good catch, like that link better than the topic itself, lol - at least it's more practical to me. Something like that would be extremely useful not only for survival/prepper reasons but just to cut the umbilical cord to utilities. I have a few hand-cranked flashlights/radios but something that can go for a half-hour with minimal fuss is gold to me.
Ummm.....maybe it's just considered solid because it's liquid state is in slow suspension viscosity....like glass...it is a crystal after all.

It definitely has uses right out of 'Star Trek', but no doubt it's much too premature for that sort of speculation.
I'm still fascinated by what they claim is happening here - in my layperson's view, it's a solid piece of matter (the crystal) yet the magnetic properties are as if it were a liquid, like say a liquid metal, and changes within this magnetic field can be instantaneous between separate parts. Dunno what the implications of all that are, but sounds cool...

I'm a little exasperated at how this proves how little we know. We're still discovering the universe, and everyone thinks we already have all the answers. Better yet, the people who AREN'T paid to be right think we have all the answers. I guess it's pretty easy to say that sort of thing when the world doesn't call you out on it.
Originally posted by RussianScientists
I don't think this is going to be that great of a discovery. First of all, if it was a great discovery, they would have told everyone how powerful their new magnet is; this they didn't do. But... I do like to hear about scientific discoveries no matter how small or insignificant they may be, so S&F.

Biigs, yeah, I overlooked that part. Though, if some atoms or molecules can flip, I'm betting all of them can be aligned and flipped at the same time, they did say the magic Q word after all.
Aleister, I wouldn't want them to shelf it tooo fast lol.

If it flips its magnetic poles at random with no power input, you have free energy. You would just put a transformer core around it and wind some wires around it and get energy from the coil.
If it flips its poles when a similar piece some distance away is put in an alternating magnetic field, you have energy teleportation. That would solve the battery problem as the battery could be charging all the time.

Mary J. Blige's music has always resonated with her fans because she puts her real life love issues to song. And once word got out about her divorce from Kendu Isaacs, everyone knew nothing would change.
Blige is currently on tour in Europe and is hitting back at Isaacs' request for spousal support, even though he made $46,000 a month as her manager.
According to the Daily Mail, Isaacs says Blige "opens her show by displaying various images of tabloids pertaining to this dissolution in an attempt to paint herself as the victim and Mr. Isaacs as the villain."
Well typically, when you're a cheater, what else would you call yourself?
But Blige isn't backing down when it comes to her music, and her newest song is in part about her pending divorce.
"I've been speaking to my fans like this since 1994," Blige said about her song "Thick Of It" to UK talk show Loose Women. "We created a relationship through all my trials and them having trials as well and us getting through it. So the song is basically about where I am right now. I'm in the thick of it. I'm in the middle of a divorce that's everywhere. It's just how hard life is. It's the pain. It's the lawyers. It's the this. It's the that. It's not even knowing someone that you thought you knew for years. It's horrible. But there's hope in it as well. I have to keep the joy so I can live and survive. I can't just die in the sadness. This is why I'm here — because I kept my joy in spite of my pain and crying and releasing everything on stage to my fans and us healing together. I kept my joy."
Girl, and keep that money too!

Unwind™ Relaxes Without Alcohol
Nov 17, 2010, 15:44 ET from Frontier Beverage Co.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. and WORCESTER, Mass., Nov. 17, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Confusion swirled in the Boston market today after a number of local media outlets claimed that Frontier Beverage Company's new, low-calorie ultimate relaxation aid, Unwind™ is infused with alcohol. In response, Frontier Beverage and its New England Distributor, Polar Beverages, reiterate that the product, Unwind™, is 100 percent alcohol-free.
Unwind gets its calming properties from ingredients like Melatonin and Valerian Root, which Dr. Andrew Weil calls, "great natural sleep aids" in this article http://www.good.is/post/surprising-ways-to-get-a-better-night-s-sleep/.
"We created Unwind to offer a great-tasting, lower-calorie and alcohol-free way for consumers to relax," said Terry Harris, Chief Executive Officer, Frontier Beverage Co. "With the help of well-established and respected beverage distributors like Polar Beverages, we will be able to bring 'ultimate relaxation' to more consumers across the country."
Why is Unwind so popular? Because, people are Tired of Being Wired™.
In fact, relaxation beverages, specifically Unwind™, were just named one of the hottest beverage trends for 2010: http://www.bevindustry.com/Articles/Feature_Articles/BNP_GUID_9-5-2006_A_10000000000000898591
Polar Beverages, in existence since 1882, serves more than 25,000 convenience and grocery stores in New England. Unwind is a part of the company's line up of other well-known products such as 7UP®, Sunkist®, A&W Root Beer®, Nantucket Nectars®, Snapple Iced Tea®, and Arizona Iced Tea®.

The New York attorney general's office is issuing subpoenas to the Long Island Rail Road, calling for all records related to the approval of employee disability benefits.
The railroad has said it is cooperating fully. Officials from the LIRR and the attorney general's office have meetings this week.
The action follows a published report that a huge majority of LIRR retirees receive disability payments whether their claims were justified or not.
The head of the LIRR has said the company has no role in the granting of federal disability pensions, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, to its retired employees.
Gov. David Paterson called on Attorney General Andrew Cuomo to look into the issue.

Hypnosis, hypnosis, and more freaking hypnosis, usually followed by confuse ray in the Black Tower/White Treehollow. I hate that.
Hypnosis, hypnosis, and more freaking hypnosis, usually followed by confuse ray in the Black Tower/White Treehollow. I hate that.
Anything that uses Detect six times in a row.
Pokemon that hit you twice before you can hit them even though you're FASTER than they are and they're not using a speed-enhanced move.
Paralysis when used on me. 'Cuz my Pokemon can't move 70% of the time and a paralyzed wild Pokemon is only paralyzed 30% of the time. And never when you most need it to be.
Supersonic when used by the computer. That move has a 55% accuracy rating.
But when the computer uses it it seems to be closer to 90 %
that and cute pokemon that don't evolve past the cuteness. I just do not like cuddly looking pokemon.
"What good is it for a man to gain the world, yet forfeit his soul?"
When you're playing someone over wifi and you both can't hit the other one with the move's you have left (I had a marowak he had a normal form rotom)
After a random battle is over and it goes to the blue screen asking you to continue, you turn off the power and they count it as a rage quit -__-

Focus Sash +Counter/Mirror Coat. Most Pokemon don't even need this tactic
When your moves miss every single time...
gen1 purists, take of your nostalgia glasses long enough to realise that later gens have awesome pokemon, too
Genwunners and Double Team. That move is banned from competitive play for a reason, it's just so freaking cheap. And don't even get me started on Genwunners.
Having my pokemon "immobilized by love" for six or seven turns in a row after the opponent uses Infatuate or Cute Charm ><
Regigigas fan
My Shiny Legendaries!
I can't with "originaly 150 were the best!!!!11" like no Gen1 had friggen grimer are you kidding me. Nostalgia freaks give us older fans a bad name. Especially because R/B/Y was really glitchy and honestly boring compared to today's games.
Triple battles annoy the hell out of me. Both the all at once and the kind that rotate each pokemon. Double battles were cool, but wth is up with triple battles. Just. No.
Anyway, here's the most controversial thing that grinds my gears. And fear not. I fully expect to be bashed for this.
Competitive battling really annoys me, because it tends to be a very elitist sport. What I mean by that is they tend to get their panties in a bundle if you're not playing the game the way THEY want you to play it. Also, if you criticize competitive battling, they tend to act like they know better than you, or just act like they're better than you in general.

I really hate it when you encounter wild Pokémon your team is at a disadvantage with and you could not run away from a battle.
The thing that grinds my gears the most is when the opponent's Pokémon like Lillipup starts using Work Up repeatedly and knocks you out when they are a little bit weaker than you. I remember that this caused me so much raging hate when the first time I challenged Aspertia Gym in Black 2. It took me like 20 tries because of this.
Another thing that grinds my gears is when the opponent turns off the game during the middle of a Wi-Fi battle whenever you are in the lead. I've got to admit that I'm guilty of doing it in the past back during the 4th Generation, but I learned how annoying it is when you are on the receiving end. Just complete unsportsmanlike conduct in my books.
Oh... the irony
being able to catch Lv.50's no prob, but when i find a freaking Lv.30 Axew, the game decides to say "Screw You", and it takes foreeeeeeeeevvvvvvveeeeerrrrr.

Something that's recently been bothering me:
The many people saying that Ghetsis' Hydreigon was a "hack because it's level 54, but Hydreigon evolves at level 64!" Okay, what exactly are you trying to say? Would you much rather of had his Hydreigon be level 64 rather than 54? I personally don't see a reason to whine about the lower level. Besides, it's not like this was the first time in Poké-history that someone used a fully evolved poke that shouldn't of been fully evolved.
The fact you get each Gym Leader's number in your pokenav in Ruby and Sapphire, and you'll never be able to rematch them reallllllyyyy made me mad.
Me having a WPA2 router (I have a ds lite), and not having the ability to do special events and access the GTS (can't mesuda method :c)
I've personally never understood why Snubbull had a higher female ratio
Pokeradar chains randomly breaking out of nowhere really bugs me aswell.
That there isn't an "Organisation Boss" tournament in the PWT! I'd love to see Maxie, Cyrus, Ghetsis, Archie - Heck even Giovanni and maybe just the Admins like Tabitha for some fun. It would make a great tournaments imo!
Current Shiny Hunt:
Abra - 14 Boxes
Next Hunt:
the one thing that gets me more than anything else is that my router doesn't work with my ds/ds games, but it does work with my 3ds, wii and wii u. it gets me so annoyed.

Thank you Oliver, one more question: which Maven dependency do I need in order to have the ChainedTransactionManager only? Trying to keep my dependencies slim
Spring Data Commons 1.6 M1 or better. Actually, the purpose of this ticket was to remove the need to depend on the Neo4j module just to get access to the ChainedTranctionManager. The class itself only depends on spring-tx in turn so if you're not using anything else but this class you can probably exclude some of the additional dependencies we rely on transitively for other stuff.
Hello again,
one last question: is the ChainedTransactionManager supposed to be a singleton? Can I have multiple instances managing transactions in different threads?

The Bachelor S17E12: "Season Finale"
Well, the ritual is complete, the idolized alpha male has raised one woman on a pedestal above all others and cast the other into a purgatory deep and dark and without even a season of The Bachelorette as consolation: ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?
I do have to say that Catherine's face when Sean proposed was the best—the BEST—reaction I've ever seen during a Bachelor proposal. Her face was like tissue paper and her emotions were like red ink and they bled through and suffused every little part of her. The giant doe-in-the-headlights eyes, the shaking shoulders, the little gasp when he got on his knee… you'd have to be a heartless beast not to be #TeamCatherine by the time they climbed up on that elephant. And I was secretly really enjoying how her gold tips matched her dress. Gorgeous. Congratulations, lady, you really transcended this process and made it all about the love and how many people honestly do that?
Okay, now I can talk
about the mean stuff, which has mostly to do with Master of Ceremonies Chris
Harrison and the ABC wedding machine cranking this shit out at a turtle's pace.
A THREE-HOUR FINALE, for crying out loud. The moment we want to see is about thirty seconds long, and for them to take Catherine's sweet little love note and hype
it up in the promos to turn it into some left-at-the-altar B.S. was such a reach. It was
such a bait-and-switch. (Although I did love little red-headed Jackie hopping
up and suggesting it was from Sean's mom, pleading with him not to go through
with it—that was what I was thinking! And good for her for getting the Sea
Witch to let her keep her legs even though she didn't get a rose, or maybe that
was King Triton's doing?)
I also have to call out how weird it was to see Sean and Lindsay canoodling on a Thai boat with the guy steering it in frame and they're just totally ignoring him as he looks at them with such a mixture of curiosity and contempt, it was sort of priceless. Maybe they've grown really used to having cameramen around them at all times but something about the two of them making hand-binoculars while a human being sat like six inches from them felt so, so awkward. Whatever you're paying hat guy, double it, ABC. That's a lot to take with a straight face.
And then the announcement that Catherine and Sean are going to get married on TV? Whoo effing hoo guys. Please don't do that. Keep something personal and private and only yours. Or not, whatever.
One thing was super clear last night: It's time to pull in a relief host. Chris Harrison has been out to sea too long, navigating the tides of exposed spray-tan cleavage (both male and female), mascara tears, and frosted tips with such glib aplomb that his eyes are now fully shut-off. Like, watch his eyes when he smiles, they're like a blank white sky above the dead tree branches and frozen growth of deepest winter. A decade of nonstop Bachelor-, Bachelorette-, and Bachelor Pad-hosting has turned him into a piece of nonsense. His robotic, cheerful questions fell perfectly in time during the live feed and at one point he accidentally switched Catherine and Lindsay's name and kept going, battering guests with an interrogation more suited for a 13-year-old niece than a 45-year-old man. "How did you know?" "At what moment did you know she was the one?" "When did you know?"
Look, we're all hoping they make it to the (televised) altar
but if past couples are any indication they'll be lucky to make it to Dancing With the Stars.
They'll be broken up in three weeks, after revelations of cheating/skinny-dipping/illicit foot-rubbing break in US Weekly and then one or both of them will have
to sit on a contractually obligated faux-suede couch and answer questions like, "What happened?" "Why did things fall apart?" "When did you know?"
I mean, I really hope they stay together forever, but precedent is precedent. Sean's mom knows what I'm talking about! She was so uncomfortable
about everything. I wanted to reach through the TV and be like, "Do you know
this series at all? No one stays engaged. This is just a free trip to Thailand.
Keep it together."
Sean's dad knew what was up, promising both girls he'd love them forever with tears in his eyes. THAT'S where Sean gets it, I guess.
Like every other woman in the live audience last night, I
was wearing bright jewel tones and loved when Lindsay popped off her heels. It
perfectly summed up that moment of the night when you realize it's not
happening with the guy and just get real. Like he says something that's finally
so stupid or mentions his girlfriend and you nonchalantly take off the earrings
that have been squeezing you the last five hours and fish the Luna Bar out of your
purse. It's like, okay, let's just bro-down then. No need to waste these bells
and whistles on you, buddy. It's a subtle way of looking on the bright side of
resignation. I'm sort of shocked they aren't going to offer The Bachelorette
season to Lindsay, but their schedule seems tight (as Chris Harrison's smile)
and I would not be surprised if she turns up next season the way Ashley did.
And for those of you who want to see Sean dance on Lindsay's poor little heart:
1. #BachelorNation tweets: best new part of the show?
2. Lindsay: one classy lady?
3. Catherine & Sean: the cutest?
4. Would you go on The Bachelor/ette in any capacity or is it a well-oiled, soul-sucking machine?
5. Desiree as the new Bachelorette: good choice or great choice?

Thank goodness for second wind… I think I may survive this week after all. On another note, the temperature is about 20 degrees cooler than yesterday at this time – welcome to winter in Nashville. I attended my first show at 3rd and Lindsley as a correspondent for No Depression/ND Roots. My review should be up soon, I will post links on my Facebook page – so follow me there.
We have a pretty sweet shuffle to close out the week, so let's get to it.
"Everywhere I Go (I Hear The Go-Gos)" by Phranc
The reference may be dated, but if you are of a certain age, you remember… From Folksinger.
"Atlas Shrugged" by Matt King
This is our last song we have from Matt King's 2010 album Raw, and it is one of my favorites. Next stop, Matt King and Killing Streets!
"Electric Worry" by Clutch
From Summer Sound Attack…. This is sooooo good.
"So Far" by Ben Arthur
Video directed by my friend Matthew Hendershot of #E2TG favorites The End Men. If You Look for My Heart is such a tour de force… with such a variety of styles represented. Including this slice of pure pop heaven…
"Coyotes" by Modest Mouse
How about some brand new Modest Mouse music. "Coyotes" is the second single from the forthcoming Strangers to Ourselves album. It based upon a true story of a coyote that rode the MAX lite rail line in Portland in 2002.
"The Intense Humming of Evil" by Manic Street Preachers
The Holy Bible turned 20 years old in 2014. No not the book… the now classic album by Welsh band Manic Street Preachers. It was the last album released before the 1995 disappearance of rhythm guitarist and chief lyrist Richie Edwards (Edwards was officially declared dead in 2008). Stark and disturbing, the album is a startlingly real view into the mind of Edwards who was suffering from a depression, self harm, and anorexia nervosa.
"Kara Dean" by Ike Reilly
The first time I saw the title of this song, I thought it was about Nashville's current mayor (whose name is just one letter different). It is not. The song is from Ike Reilly's Junkie Faithful album. It is part of the 18 song retrospective Am I Still the One for You" which you can still get for free (donation encouraged) from Noisetrade.
"Harvest Moon" by Jason and the Scorchers
From their classic Fervor EP… the accompanying video was shot at a 1985 show in the Cat's Records parking lot on West End Avenue in Nashville that this blogger attended – almost 30 years ago????
"Boscombe Armistice" by Blue Rose Code!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");
Off the album The Ballads of Peckham Rye – I got hold of this on the latest Feel Bad for You mixtape. Blue Rose Code is singer-songwriter Ross Wilson of Edinburgh, Scotland. This was my first listen to Blue Rose Code, and I want to hear more. window.amznpubstudioTag = "eartothegro00-20";

Google Book Search -- Fair Use It Is Not
Google's "Print" (Book Search) was the cover story in the December 2 issue of the Chronicle of Higher Education's Review. The article, like many others, has somehow managed to avoid the flaw in Google's legal reasoning.
Google's scanning/indexing project creates a "derivative" work. To create the index Google must first create an electronic copy of the original. It is the process of creating this electronic copy (i.e. scanning and OCR'ing) which is forbidden without the publisher's permission. ONLY the copyright holder has the right to CREATE a derivative work.
Google has somehow asserted that transforming a work into another medium, NOT altering any of the text, preserving the transformed copy in a lasting manner, and doing so for a commercial purpose is fair use. But, what they have done is create a derivative work -- and there is NO fair use for the creation of a derivative work. Sure they can make a fair use argument about the index -- but the dispute is not the index: it is the process of creating the index.
Harper Collins has the right idea. They will control the process of creating the index and then will give the index to whomever wants to use it. The process of creating a derivative work stays with the copyright holder.
Of course, if Google were to play ball with the publishers then much of this would be unnecessary. Most books in the last ten years were prepared with digital files and it is much easier to prepare an index from the digital file. But that would mean Google would have to give up having its own derivative work.
Why does Google want a derivative work of its own? Because copyright law asserts that if a derivative work is created with permission or under license -- OWNERSHIP of the DERIVATIVE work is vested with its creator -- i.e. Google.
Anyone want to bet that once Google has ownership rights it will vigorously protect them?
Now if Google were to give up ALL commercial rights to the project, give it and the necessary funding to a consortia of university libraries (such as the ones they are "working with") and then find a way to restrict the use of the index to educational ones (users must log in through a library, text is displayed for only limited times and is deliberately fuzzy except say for a floating box which allows you to read paragraphs, and the ability to print and read multiple pages is severely restricted), well that might be fair use .... but that is not the Google project.

Short and sweet ... Tales of the
Summer reading lists of the kind churned out by newspapers consist mostly of novels and a few soft-focus non-fiction titles. They're designed, of course, for when the possibility of sitting down for a few uninterrupted hours of reading seems great enough to merit the extra weight in your suitcase. But what about those of us stuck at work, cramming gobbets of reading into the rare moments of relative peace afforded by our bone-shaking transport networks?
Short stories are one, excellent answer. More convenient than novels but less tricky than poetry, they can be read in a single sitting, and often contain just the right amount of magic to transform a boring day into an exciting one, or a humdrum day into a thoughtful one. Their magic resides in the fact they allow us to suspend the reality-checks we tend to bring to the reading of longer fiction, giving their authors greater scope to explore a striking image or a telling theme with a certain intensity.
Think of Chekhov's Peasants: kept short, the punishing, grinding poverty can be described with an intensity sufficiently relentless to do it justice, but which would be truly unbearable if strung out any longer. Or imagine trying to read Borges's Fuñes the Memorious as a novel - a poignant exposition of an eternal but permanently obscured truth about the nature of human memory would turn into a laborious experiment in pop-phenomenology. Similarly, the quirky conceits that fuel Will Self's most successful book to date, his early collection The Quantity Theory of Insanity, would be converted from entertaining prods at the fabric of received reality into useless, un-indexed thesauruses.
But publishers, it seems, aren't so keen on the short story, perhaps because Waterstone's won't put them on their tables, or perhaps because literary editors won't put them on their summer reading lists. But yesterday, a new company was launched with the explicit mission of reversing the decline in the status of the short story.
Tales of the Decongested, the first offering from new publisher Apis Books, is, as its title implies (and the volume costs about the same as a day's congestion charge), steeped in the humdrum of metropolitan and suburban life but appropriately rich in stories of a quality that transcend it. It is in fact the result of a short story reading group, based at a revamped Foyles bookshop in central London, attended by a mixture of published and unpublished authors and readers who value the extra charge lent to short fiction by its being read aloud. (Incidentally, there are free recordings of the stories available from Apis).
The event in itself would be praiseworthy enough, but the quality of the stories picked for publication is consistently high. For obvious reasons, the first contribution comes from their one real celebrity writer, Ali Smith, whose The Present is a genuinely masterly essay in the form, a sharp study of the necessary intrusion of absence in presence, and the peculiar coherence of negative, anonymous community. But Nick Parker's minimalist fantasy, The Field of Ladders, and Andrew Lloyd-Jones's Why I Feel Sorry for the Chickens - whose rigorously unsentimental intensifying of factory and supermarket banalities is both hilarious and poetic - are representative inclusions in a collection which generously repays the little effort required to read through it.

In January, the U.S. added 243,000 jobs, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Friday, and Glerisse Rodriguez, 26, got one of them -- but she still has a long way to go until she bounces back financially from getting laid off.
Late last month, Rodriguez started working in bookkeeping at Jacques Torres Chocolates, a New York-based chocolatier. She's thrilled about the new work, but she is starting out at about half of what she earned a year and a half ago, when she was laid off from her last bookkeeping position. She is also about $9,000 dollars in debt, from leftover student loans and from months when she was trying to support herself and her young son on credit cards and unemployment checks.
"It's like I told my mom: 'I can't be that choosy or that picky right now. I've been out of work for a long time and people are going to try to cut my pay and I have to accept that," Rodriguez said. "Still, I feel like I'm coming home."
On Friday, the Labor Department report -- which showed that the unemployment rate dropped to 8.3 percent from 8.5 -- painted a resoundingly positive, expectation-beating picture of the job market. But for the economy as a whole -- and for many Americans -- there is still a steep road before a full recovery will be at hand.
And while many headlines -- and the White House -- are trumpeting the report as a sign that a robust recovery is truly taking hold, some economists are greeting it with a measure of skepticism.
For one thing, even at this rate of growth, economists estimate it would take some seven years and 10 million additional jobs to return to pre-recession levels of unemployment. And although 243,000 new jobs is an unquestionably positive development, and comes on the heels of two previous months of good numbers (both revised upwards in this report), there are still 5.5 million Americans who have been out of work for six months or more. There are also some three to five million additional people who are no longer counted as unemployed because, sometime during the course of the deep recession and the painfully slow recovery that followed, they gave up looking.
The pool of "missing" workers has not been this large since the government began recording this measure, economists estimate. If all of these workers resumed looking for jobs, the unemployment rate could sit above 10 percent.
"This report is encouraging, but it still underscores how far a distance we have to go and how many people are still long-term unemployed and disconnected from the workforce," said Harvard economist Lawrence Katz. Plus, Katz said, at the beginning of last year, growth also appeared strong, only to drain away in the spring as oil prices rose, the Middle East erupted, and natural disasters shook Japan.
"Even if we were willing to say that the scars of the Great Recession mean a couple of million people drop out permanently, we still have many years to go before we get back to where we were," he added.
Another concern with the robust picture painted is that the strong numbers sit at odds with other important measures of economic growth -- consensus estimates for the employment picture hovered at about 100,000 fewer jobs than reported on Friday. Real household income and wealth remains stagnant, consumer spending is still weak, the housing market is still sluggish, and uncertainty about Europe prevails. On Thursday, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke noted that "the pace of the recovery has been frustratingly slow," as he assured that the Federal Reserve will continue an "accommodative stance on monetary policy."
"The first impression one gets is that something doesn't make sense here, not when the economy is still so weak," said Bernard Baumohl, chief global economist at The Economic Outlook Group. "Something has to give, and I think we're all hoping that these numbers are accurate and sustainable, but we're just not sure."
Job growth came in a broad range of industries: professional and business services added 70,000 jobs in January, while health care -- a steady gainer for the post-recession years -- added 31,000 jobs. Manufacturing added 50,000 jobs, in part because the big three auto makers have begun hiring again. In lower-paying sectors, leisure and hospitality added 44,000 jobs, wholesale trade added 14,000 jobs, construction added 21,000 jobs, and mining added 10,000 jobs.
Average hourly earnings for private-sector workers rose 4 cents in January to $23.29. Though inflation numbers for January have not been released yet, Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities, said that real earnings adjusted for inflation likely stayed the same or fell. Stagnant wages are likely to hurt the economic recovery.
"Energy prices and food prices have increased again, and since people have to buy those things, they're going to have to cut back on spending on everything else," Vitner said.
The average workweek for private-sector employees was unchanged in January. Vitner said that this is a warning sign, since "typically employers would increase hours before they increase employment." He noted that this weak demand for hours indicates that job growth is likely to slow in the coming months.
All of this means that although the headline number in Friday's report is strong, those who do have jobs still do not have much bargaining power. With a labor market this weak -- there are still more than four job seekers for every open job -- it is hard to negotiate for raises; for those newly employed, this often means accepting a pay-cut, as Rodriguez did.
She scored her new job after going through training at the Bookkeeping Center in Manhattan, a nonprofit organization that provides low-cost training and assists in job placement.
She said she's relieved after a year and a half of anxiously searching -- a year when she and her young son gave up their apartment, moved in with her father, and learned how to squeeze all unnecessary items from their budget -- but she acknowledged that she's not out of the woods yet. She has no immediate plans to move out on her own, and is keeping her budget as bare bones as possible.
"It's hard with that kind of pay, when you're used to making so much more," Rodriguez said. "But I've pretty much figured out a way to just manage my money with what is coming in."
At her last job, she earned nearly $40,000 a year. Now, she's earning about $480 a week -- a little more than 20,000 a year -- paid to her by the Bookkeeping Company of New York City, which partners with the Bookkeeping Center, until she is hired permanently.
Mathew Heggem, president of the Bookkeeping Company, said that he expects Rodriguez to get a wage increase soon, once Jacques Torres Chocolates gives her a permanent position. He added that he plans to advocate on her behalf in her negotiations over compensation. Her final wages, Heggem estimates, could exceed what she was earning previously.
Heggem also said that in recent months, he has seen a pickup in requests for bookkeepers, but that many employers are set on paying lower wages.
"People are really looking for more help in bookkeeping," Heggem said, "unfortunately they're also looking to pay a lot less for talent."
