In Sunday's Oakland Tribune, Fox Theater developer Phil Tagami publicized his search for a missing painted wall panel, originally created as one of a set of three for a downtown restaurant. Mr. Tagami bought two of the panels at the Oakland Museum's White Elephant Sale, and has searched for the mystery buyer ever since.
The wall panels were painted by Robert Chiarito in 1991 for the original restaurant in the 1111 Broadway high-rise building, a space now occupied by Caffe Verbena. The three panels show scenes reminiscent of Italian commedia, in a 1980s style of figurative expressionism, and are titled, "Country Kitchen," "Bacchanal," and "Acrobat's Dance." When the restaurant went out of business, the three panels were removed from the wall and donated to the Oakland Museum, which allowed "Acrobat's Dance" to be sold separately before Mr. Tagami contacted them about purchasing the set.
Phil Tagami told InOakland that the owner of "Acrobat's Dance" called him today, thanks to the Tribune's article. Mr. Tagami commissioned a replacement for the missing piece, which he hopes to trade for the original. The paintings, each almost 8 feet square, hang in his office in the Rotunda Building. Mr. Tagami hopes to install the completed triptych in a public venue.

You can debate whether or not Aiko and Nobuse are a couple. You can debate whether it's a one-sided love and Nobuse is just prolonging with his open declarations that Aiko is his girlfriend. But you can definitely tell that Nobuse cares about Aiko wholeheartedly. He's confident in his feelings for one girl, Aiko. I haven't seen an episode so far (up to ep. 5) where I thought to myself that Nobuse was extremely annoying.
Is Nobuse a little annoying? Yes and that's a given pretty much for his role as "male side-character". Is he even close to the top of most annoying characters in anime? Not even. To me, he's not even the most annoying character in this series. I reserve that right to both Shin's mother and Jun. But that's just me.

Not all male side-characters are annoying. Some of them are quite respectable once you cut through all their flaws and find out what they are truly about. Yasunobu from Suzuka is a fine example of this. Despite giving out extremely perverse advice to Yamato, he showed on more than one occasion that he was a true friend. I wish all side characters were more like Yasunobu. In fact, I see a lot of him in Miyokichi. I really think that if Nobuse knew Aiko's real feelings he would let her go. Honestly I feel more sorry for him than any other character in TT, even Hiromi. He will end up getting hurt by the end of this show. It's unavoidable. What he does when this goes down will determine his true character. I for one, look forward to seeing it.

I just finished True TearS, and I have to say, I actually liked Nobuse. He is a true friend to Shin'ichiro, and he truly does love Aiko. To say that Nobuse is an idiot is not seeing his true character I think. He realizes that Shin does not have feelings for Aiko and reserves them solely for Himori/Noe. He also realizes that Aiko has feelings for Shin, yet chooses to disregard them possibly for the sanctity of their friendship and to protect Aiko.

YOUNGSTOWN, OH (WKBN) – A driver found himself stuck in a large sinkhole, which opened up as he was pulling into a Youngstown Burger King.
Officials with the city's water department estimated that the sinkhole was one of the biggest that they've seen in the area. They cited the fluctuating weather as the likely cause.
"In the rainy weather, after it has been cold, a lot of snow starts melting. The ground gets heavy from the water," said Joe Dunlap, superintendent of construction for the water department.
Dunlap said once the water seeps into the ground, it eventually surfaces, pushing all of the dirt up to the top, creating a void.
Monday's water main break happened around 3 a.m., causing water to bubble up from the Burger King entrance on Midlothian Boulevard. Witnesses say a man driving a Jeep drove through the water when the ground opened up.
His car sank several feet into the ground but was eventually lifted out.
Crews spent most of the morning and afternoon trying to fix the pipe. Burger King remained opened and water service wasn't interrupted.
Dunlap said it's important to keep your eye out for other signs of water breaks in the area. Signs may be decreased water pressure and water ponding where it shouldn't be.

Part of responsible drinking is understanding that a standard drink of beer, distilled spirits and wine each contains the same amount of alcohol. It's not what you drink, it's how much that counts.
For more than 75 years, the spirits industry has adhered to a rigorous set of standards for beverage alcohol advertising and marketing. Click here to learn more about the Code.
Now that 51 U.S. Senators and 284 U.S. Representatives are co-sponsoring the Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act, Congress should make passing tax reform for spirits, beer and wine a priority for the lame duck session, the Distilled Spirits Council said today.
"A majority of members in both bodies of Congress support reducing the federal excise tax on spirits, beer and wine," said Distilled Spirits Council President & CEO Kraig R. Naasz. "Congress should pass this much-needed tax reform legislation to spur investment and job creation at distilleries, much as similar tax incentives have fostered the development of new wineries and breweries over the past 20 years."
The Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act reduces the excise tax on the first 100,000 proof gallons of distilled spirits to $2.70 per gallon, which is equivalent to the small producer tax rates enjoyed today by brewers and vintners. In addition, the legislation will reduce the excise tax rate on production above 100,000 gallons a year by 1 percent to $13.34 per proof gallon.
The Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act is sponsored by U.S. Senators Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), as well as U.S. Reps. Erik Paulsen (R-Minn.) and Ron Kind (D-Wis.). The adoption of this important legislation would mark the first time that taxes on distilled spirits have been reduced since the Civil War.

Jon Heyman of CBS Sports, spoke with an American League executive who gave him his predictions on what the top ten free agents could get this winter.
1. Josh Hamilton, Rangers OF (Prediction: $150 million, five years)
That $30-million-a-year guarantee would represent a record, eclipsing Alex Rodriguez's $275 million, 10-year contract (though A-Rod also has $30 million in historic homer bonuses). Considering the talent, that guess may not be too far off. Hamilton is said to want to be paid like an elite player, and he probably will be, though it's hard to imagine him getting the length of the Joey Votto, Albert Pujols or Prince Fielder deals considering Hamilton's history. Even in another brilliant year (42 home runs, 123 RBI), he's had bouts with a sinus headache and chewing tobacco. The Rangers haven't been one of those teams to go for the crazy lengths, so he'd likely have to settle for five years to stay ("if that," one person in the know said about the Rangers intentions). One thing that could hurt him is that the Dodgersdon't appear to be in need of an outfielder.
2. Zack Greinke, Angels SP (Prediction: $125 million, six years)
The executive started with the idea that the Brewers already tried at least $100 million for five years, and went logically from there. Greinke always has his own ideas, and one person who knows him said a few months ago he believed the Braves, Angels and Cardinals were the best fits, though the Cards seem well-stocked for pitchers. The Dodgers are a threat to get anyone good, and Nationals GM Mike Rizzo tried to lure Greinke two years ago with a similar $100 million bid. So that's two for basically the same price he's turned down. One thing about Greinke we know: he won't go to a team unless he's convinced they are ready to win.
3. B.J. Upton, Rays OF (Prediction: $60 million, five years)
There's a debate about whether the Rays will make the qualifying offer of around $13 million, but execs believe they will since his very nice all-around season with 24 home runs and 30 stolen bases means he'll get at least four years elsewhere. Actually, five sounds about right. It's a pretty good center field market, though, with Michael Bourn and Shane Victorino also free agents.
4. Edwin Jackson, Nationals SP (Prediction: $55 million, four years)
He's better than his 9-10 record. Isn't he always better than his record, which is now 69-70 for his career. The 162 strikeouts and 1.18 WHIP are more emblematic of this durable still-under-30 pitcher. The Nats shouldn't hesitate to make the $13-million qualifying offer, as he's anxious to get a multiyear deal after turning down $27 million for three years from the Pirates to take $11 million for one. At this point, that sounds like a terrific decision. Though, I don't see him matching the exec's prediction, as there were similar early guesses last year that turned out to be too high.
5. Kyle Lohse, Cardinals SP (Prediction: $45 million, three years)
Lohse has quietly entered the Cy Young picture with a 15-3 record (it could be even better as several games were blown by the bullpen), and 2.71 ERA. The aim could be for a deal to beat C.J. Wilson who got $75 million for five years. But since he's a couple years older, the guess here could prove more realistic.
You can read the rest of Heyman's predictions here which includes comments on Jake Peavy, Shane Victorino, Hiroki Kuroda, A.J. Pierzynski and Kevin Youkilis.
The only names on the list that jump out at me are Upton and Victorino who would both fill an obvious need for the Mets right now. That said, even the two years, $25 million for the Flyin' Hawaiian may be too much for his talents considering he is in decline. He's not that interesting to me at that price tag, but I would be interested in 2/$15MM.

ATLANTA – Picture this: you're walking down the street and your movements are charging your cell phone. Scientists at Georgia Tech say it's real, and the secret is in your clothing.
"If we can make it thin enough, dense enough to make on a fabric, you make a power shirt," said Dr. Zhong Lin Wang, a Regents' professor at Tech's School of Materials Science and Engineering.
The power shirt – or jacket or vest – is the likely result of the ongoing research of Dr. Wang who, in a basement laboratory at Tech, has created an electricity-generating textile.
"(It's) a power fabric," Wang said. "A fabric that can convert any kind of physical motion, sunlight, solar light, light, into electricity for wearable electronics."
Sewn into a garment, the textile could turn any person in motion or out in the sunshine into a human power plant – potentially producing enough wattage to keep charged a cell phone or wristwatch or, placed sub-dermally, even a pacemaker.
Georgia Tech has tested textile fragments that have generated power. Wang admits such a garment could produce a small shock if touched. "A little bit. Not much," he said, likening it to a static electricity shock felt during dry weather. "Small shock but not big," Wang said.
Such a garment would also be costly at first, but Dr. Wang says the cost should drop. Washability is also an issue for further scientific research. "Dry cleaning is definitely a possibility," Wang said.
Its lifesaving potential excites Tech researchers – who picture making "smart garments" that can monitor heart patients and other medical conditions with electricity-generating textiles.

After many years and half a dozen mediocre-to-middling attempts to rekindle one of the biggest franchises of the 90s, Mortal Kombat is finally really back. Under the watchful eye of series co-creator Ed Boon, NetherRealm Studios has delivered the ninth game in this long-running fighting series, this time just named Mortal Kombat , and it's the best game we've seen in a good fifteen years of the series' history.
In the end, this new Mortal Kombat Ps vita is easily the best game in the series. It updates the oldschool gameplay into something much more advanced and interesting while still retaining the characters, atmosphere, and bloody brutality that made the series famous in the first place. Even if you only play at a novice level and don't get into the crazy combos and juggling chains, there is still plenty here to keep you entertained between the single and tag-team fights,This is the best fighting game I've played. Tons of characters (my personal favorite is Freddy Krueger). It is fun to play with friends, not to mention bloody fun. A great game to play.

Replacing the part is easy. Wait until you have the replacement part and just hook everything up the same way.
Unscrew the plastic housing around the light/thermostat dial housing in the upper right corner of the refrigerator. Pull off the dial carefully. The thermostat line is just snaked around the back wall of the fridge. There is a small plate at the bottom back of the fridge that holds the end of the thermostat line. You can try to remove the line from the plate without unscrewing but I just unscrewed it and slid it off.
The only problem I had is that the new part is not identical to the old. The connector for the yellow wire isn't there anymore. I just hooked up the grey and green wires the same and put the yellow on the only remaining connector (which is in the location of an old connector that was unused and covered on the old part. this is what made me uneasy.).
I've had the fridge set on 3 since last night and its holding steady @ 41 degrees. I put some stuff in there that I don't have to worry about exploding should it freeze. I'm going to let the fridge sit a few more days before I trust it to any beer/soda.

Genealogy Report: Ancestors of Lillian Mae Washington
Ancestors of Lillian Mae Washington
8.Thomas Washington, born Abt. 1770 in SC or VA?116,117; died Bef. 24 January 1838 in St. Clair Co., AL.He was the son of 16. Edward Washington.He married 9. Nancy Darlington Abt. 1793 in probably Winton Co., SC118,119.
9.Nancy Darlington120, born 1776 in probably Wilmington,DE121; died 1855 in St. Clair Co., AL.She was the daughter of 18. John Darlington and 19. Elinor Armstrong.
Notes for Thomas Washington:
--These are my notes (or I credit others)which I have seen copied without reference to me. Please use as you will, but credit me as I do others. Thanks!--
The information on Thomas' line downwards comesfrom several sources-- Mrs. Margaret Thompson of Bremen, Alabama, <firstname.lastname@example.com>, Mr. Clay Long, in his"Long and Allied Families," ca 1972,Mr. E.R. Walt of Texas, and some notes I made from conversations with my grandmother Lillian Washington Marshall and her son, my Uncle Lacy Marshall in the early 1960s. I have also visited the Cooke County gravestones of J.R. Washington and his family, and Henry S. Marshall and his wife Mary buried in Dexter, Cooke Co., where they had their ranch.
Margaret Thompson has sent me material from Mary M. Chambless which disputes the Surry County line, and shows what I have entered as the line shown here, ie: Thomas' descent from Edward of Westmoreland Co., Va. Craig Washington's work generally agrees with this (1999).
The below is taken from Henry Clay Long Jr.'s work, about 1972. Long is a Washington cousin, as shown in these notes.
p167 BEGIN QUOTE:"There were two Edward Washingtons in South Carolina. One received a royal grant of 450 acres on "Pedee, including Horse Island part of Goodmans Island and the remaining part south side of the river, bounding north westward on Thomas Wade's land, eastward on Claudis Pique's, the other by vacant land. This grant was made on the thirtieth day of July, Anno Dom. in the tenth year of our reign." [Editorial note: 1770. This Edward we now believe to be the father of the other Edward.]
"The other Edward Washington in South Carolina received a grant (South Carolina State) of 200 acres situate in the District of Orangeburg on Little Saltcatcher. This grant was made on the 5th day of June 1786 and is recorded in Volume 13 page 59 South Carolina Archives. This Edward may have been the son of Edward who received the Royal Grant; likewise, the first Edward of South Carolina may have been the son of Lansdowne and Elizabeth Washington who was born in Bristol Parish in 1734. However, many historians believe the first Edward of South Carolina was a grandson of John Washington of Surry County, Virginia."
[Editor's note: I do not think this at all likely. Chambless says no, and the line above Edward shown herein reflects no descent from John of Surry. There is of course the chance that Thomas is not a close relation to these Edwards at all, but came over to settle in America as a child with his family from Ireland in the sweep of emigration from the island. While this is possible, I will below settle on what I believe to be the probable relation]
"Other Washingtons who received grants of land in South Carolina were:
John WashingtonRoyal Grant640 acres vol 39 page 177 South Carolina Archives.
(a check ofSouth Carolina wills may determine this Washington to be John of Surry County as no will for his estate could be located in Surry County.) (Mary Chambless says there is a will for John, and that this John is the son of Edward and Betsy born about 1697 in Westmoreland Co., Va.)
Abraham WashingtonState Grant211 acres dated Jan 6, 1817vol 60 p 756 .
Abraham WashingtonState Grant500 acres dated Nov 6, 1795vol 41 p 529.
Robert WashingtonState Grant200 acres dated Jun 5, 1786vol 11 p 53.
Thomas WashingtonState Grant200 acres dated Apr 5, 1802vol 48 p 364.
(this is probably our Thomas Washington.)
William Washington, Esq.250 acres dated Aug 7, 1786vol 12 p 561.
(this was General Washington, a first cousin of Gen. George Washington. He settled in South Carolina after the Revolutionary War and married (ed. note: Jane, per Paulette Gilchrist)______ Elliott.)
221 acres dated Aug 7, 1786vol 12 p 562
337 acres do.vol 12 p 559
250 acres do.vol 12 p 61.
Water Lot in Chester-- the home of General Washington on the Battery in Charleston. (It is a private home, but is one of the show places in Charleston. The census of 1790 shows William Washington, Esq. as having 340 slaves.
William Washington112 acres 2 October, 1797vol 43 p 115
(this William Washington is believed to have been a brother of Edward Washington who received the grant in 1786. Both of them could have been sons of Edward Washington who received the Royal Grant [in 1770.] Our Thomas was born ca. 1770 and if so he could not have served in the Revolutionary War.
"Documentary evidence which could, no doubt, connect our Thomas with his forebears is probably buried in the Archives of South Carolina or in libraries and other places of records in the state. However, to date this material has eluded the compiler. Time and age preclude traveling to do further research, and the employment of professionals for research has proven rather unsatisfactory. The writer is of the opinion that our Thomas Washington was a lineal descendant of John Washington of Surry County, Virginia."END QUOTEFROM LONG
Paulette Gilchrist, a Washington descendant and another researcher, gives Thomas's children in this order:
"Gwen and I have the following: (Just a guess, like everyone else as to the dates)
Rebecca 1796
William Thomas2/8/1812
Cynthia Adaline 1815
"I have the same order for the others mentioned. Thomas could have been named for his grandfather on his mother's side and then Edward for the father. And you know, people didn't always follow the rules!! Especially, we Washingtons!! ...."
In the 1800 US Census for the Barnwell District, SC, we have the following line for Thomas (the census is a matrix of names down the left side with columns across the page for free white males and free white females with these ones checked for Thomas Washington):
Thomas WashingtonFree White Males: 3 (to 10) 1 (26 to 45) Free White Females: 1 (to 10) 1(16 to 26) 1 (above 45) and there are no checks for either "free persons of color" or for slaves on the right side of the document. (Others listed have numbers entered here). Taking the children, Edward, John, and Rebecca fit the given ages. Allen is too young, but I note he could have been born in 1790 as he shows as 70 in the 1860 Alabama census. Thus he could be the third, or there is a child who died later. Thomas himself fits the 26-45 block. Nancy would be about 24 in this year, and fits that block. But who is the older woman over 45? Thus born before 1755? This must be Thomas's mother?
And the 1810 Barnwell census:FWM 2 (to 10)3 (10-26) 1 (over 45)FWF 1 (10-16) 1 (26-45) 1 (above 45) and he has one slave.
What we really need to know Thomas' forebears is a will-- does Edward Washington with the land in the Orangeburg District have a will?
Tying Thomas to Edward as his father is the fact they named their first child Edward -- typically the first boy's paternal grandfather. Additonally, we have a clue that Nancy Darlington is the daughter of John Darlington -- John shows up as Thomas's second son, named for his maternal grandfather!
Thomas may have been born in Va. or North Carolina. This seems more likely than South Carolina, given the time, ca. 1770, which is early for settlement in the Piedmont area.Margaret Washington Thompson notes:"I was reading from some notes I had made onVirginia Washingtons from a volume of Family Tree and a Thomas Washington in 1788 inheritedabout 400 acres."
But what if Thomas came to the new world as a child as part of the Scotch-Irish immigration? In Jan., 2003 I saw this posted at the Pace family site:"Between 1772 and 1777, a wave of some 30,000 Ulstermen were forced to leave Northern Ireland by harsh rents and economic conditions, and sailed for the new world. Many landed in the Carolinas, many also came from Scotland and England.... these ships came to the Carolinas in 1774 and 1775:

Clay notes that the 1820 census of St. Clair Co., Alabama, lists our Thomas Washington as "headof family.One male over 21One male under 21One female over 21Two females under 21Two slaves."
Jill Mohon, <firstname.lastname@example.com> posted this on WorldConnect: "Thomas bought 280 acres in Barnwell District on Jan. 11, 1802. Bounded on SE by Nathaniel Walker, NE by George Gray, SW & NE by Theophilus Bum and NW by James Brown and all other sides by Abraham Washington. The 1810 Census showed the family still in Barnwell Co. In 1819 Alabama became a state and land was sold by grant. John came to St. Clair Co. and purchased land on July 8, 1819. The family then came here by 1820. The family were farmers and woodworkers. Their craft was carving wood shingles. In the 1820 census, Thomas was the owner of two slaves. Two slaves were sold at his death. Records on file in St. Clair Co., Courthouse."
Thomas Washington appears in the census of 1830. His wife Nancy is head of family in the 1840 census.
As proof of descent from Thomas and Nancy Washington the transcript of a document reads: "6 Sep. 1858. William Washington of Greene County, Arkansas: Power of Attorney to Joel C. Wood from John Washington, one of the administrators of the estate of my father, Thomas Washington, deceased of St. Clair Co., Ala., the estate of my mother, Nancy Washington, deceased, relict of said Thomas Washington. (St. Clair Co., Ala. Book E, page 62)."Terisa Washington Baker, <email@example.com> very kindly sent me a copy of this document and the following.
29 August, 1859: Settlement of the estate of Nancy Washington, deceased, her surviving children and descendants: John Washington, Allen Washington, Rebecca Washington, William Washington, Edward Washington, Darling Washington, George Washington; all of legal age and children of Cynthia McKinny, who is now dead, andwho was a daughter of said decedent, her children of said decedent being reported by said administrator as unknown and have no legal guardian, all of whom are entititled to share.... (St. Clair Co., Ala., Book C, page 432.)
(I had these words wrong after several retranscriptions until I had the Xeroxed copies of the actual court records from Terisa Washington Baker, <email@example.com> in August, 2002. I have fixed where I found errors, for example where I had Cynthia McKinny's name, itwas listed as Cynthia Washington McKinny.....someone inserting Washington.)
The court order appointing John and William Washington to administer the estate of Thomas Washington is dated 24 Jan., 1838, St. Clair Co., Ala.
From Gwen Washington, May 2000, <email@example.com>, who sent this treasure trove I did not have:
"... forgot to mention the whereabouts of some of the Washingtons from Thomas's chidren who came to MS.
"First, Edward b. 1790s came to Choctaw Co. MS. with all or most of his children.Then children moved to Texas Cass and Bowie Cos.
"....John stayed in St. Clair Co.,died March 1860 of pneumonia.Is listed on 1860 Mortality Schedule for St. Clair Co. Ala.
"....Rebecca Washington Hollingsworth's estate settlement for mother Nancy says she is in St. Clair Co. in 1855.Know nothing after that.
"....Allen stayed in St. Clair Co.Am not convinced all children listed with him are really his.Also think Rebecca listed with him is sister not wife.Don't know who his wife is.
".... Darlington moved around to Benton Co., then Texas as you know.
"....George moved to Tishimingo Co MS. then to Cass Co. Texas.Died there late 1860 according to P. Kelton in her book.
"....William came to Panola Co. MS. by 1850.Was not listed on 1860 census but most of his children and wife were. Don't know their whereabouts in 1870 bu they must have stayed close to sister Cynthia's children since William's dau. married Cynthia's son.
"....Cynthia m. Michael McKinney (estate settlement listed given name incorrectly).They moved to the Western Division of Chickasaw Co. Ms. by 1850.They had many children;James E.b. 1835 m. Charlotte Miller, William A. b, 1837 m. Sarah Washington abt. 1860-63 George M b. ca. 1839, Matilda b. 1841, Sarah J. b. 1843, John L. b. 1845, Thomas A. b. 1848, Allen b. 1851-52.Then Cynthia died and was probably buried in Chickasaw Co.After her death, Michael moved to Lafayette Co. Ms. where the older son married. Michael remarried and had another large family.He probably died between 1870 and 1880.Don't know what happened to the children after that.Suspect they went to Texas like so many others in family. Don't know what happened to William's (son of Thomas) family after 1860. I believe that takes care of the whereabouts of the whole family for about two decades or so. Let me hear from you to see if my info. matches any of yours."Thanks, Gwen!
I have heard that Thomas Washington and some of his family might have settled in Columbia Co. or elsewhere in Ga. before moving on the Ala. I am told he wrote a will in Columbia Co. I posted this query on the Georgia forum and today, Jan. 5, 2003, heard this from Jan Washington, <email@example.com>, who kindly said:
"I'm researching the caucasian Washington family of Columbia County, Ga. The direct ancestor I'm particularly interested in is Robert Silas Washington, who was born 24 Dec 1851. All censuses I have seen of his family reflect his mother, Martha, as head of the family. However, his father was still living since children continued to be born until at least 1856. I have found information that lists a George W. Washington or Matthew Washington as Martha's husband. I've not been able to find any info to help prove which one.
"In doing research, it appears that the first Washington in this line in Columbia County was James Washington, born 1750-1760. He may have been there even earlier, but I've had no luck in tracing him earlier than 1820 District 6, Columbia Co., Ga. census, page 33. He had five sons at that time; I've identified two as George (b. about 1786 and married Sophia Fitzgerald 15 Jul 1815) and James Jr. (b. about 1787 and married Nancy Revell 4 Feb 1813). My research is on James Jr.'s line. I believe George W. or Matthew Washington was the son of James Jr.
"George W./Matthew's family moved to Colorado Co., TX, sometime between 1851 and 1860.
"I'm not sure where the Washingtons originated. I've heard Northampton, NC and previous to that Va., but I don't know for sure.
"I hope this info is of some help to you. Jan"
Editor: I think James might easily be a brother of our Thomas, born about 1770 in Va. or SC. Given that Thomas and his family passed through Ga.-- we think Columbia County en route to Ala.-- why shouldn't his brother be along too?
Notes for Nancy Darlington:
--These are my notes (or I credit others)which I have seen copied without reference to me--
We do not know that Mrs. Nancy Washington was born a Darlington, but such an unusual first name for their son might suggest it. And there is the proximity of the two families Darlington and Washington in the census of 1790.
Margaret Thompson, Alabama, notes:"On the first census of US (1790), in theOrangeburg District-- South Part:In second column is an Edward Washington.In third column is a John Darlington.I looked in my notes and in many placesDarling Washingtonis also referred to as Darlington Washington-- see, for example, the1830 census of St. Clair County.(ed.:Later I have seen the marriage records oftwo daughters whogive their father as Darlington Washington.)
Margaret also tells me:From a genealogy journal on SC:Rosemary Baptist Church Minutes--Williston, SC(Barnwell County) Church founded about 1809.minutes read"....Met in conference May 17, 1817.... resolved that Nancy Washington and Tabitha Jowersbe excommunicated from the fellowship of this church for impudent conduct." Could this be our Nancy?

Concerning the Darlingtons of Barnwell Co. SC, 4 Jun 2000, Gwen Washington <email@example.com> says:... "I thought you might be interested in learning what I found on the Darlington family of Barnwell Dist. SC.Herman Weiland answered my query who has a genealogy of this family.Here is what he said the book contains:
"Genealogy of the Darlington Family," by Gilbert Cope, 1900
"Page 556:John Darlingtonwhose wife was named Elinor (Armstrong) b. June 25, 1750 in Wilmington, Delaware m. April 02, 1773in Wilmington. Found in Orangeburg Dist.(now Barnwell) in 1786 where he died about 1807.He had two children:
"Job (died 1826) m. Elizabeth Nelson, and John not married.
"Their children were:John Armstrong (children are Richard and James) (Note from Gwen: found on several censuses for Barnwell is a John A. Darlington; don't know if it is this one or not), James ( had John and James), Thomas ( had Pickens Armstrong, Joseph Job, John, James, and William R. b. ca. 1842), and two unnamed daughters:I dau. b. ca. 1795 and died at 90 years in 1885. Other one unknown.
"Now maybe we can begin to place some of this family and perhaps answer that burning question of 'Was Nancy a Darlington?'We probably should go back to the 1790 census to see the age span of both John Darlingtons.Do you have a copy of 1790 Orangeburgh census for the Darlingtons.I think I do somewhere but will have to fish it out of my"family junk" as my children call it.If you have it, would you share it with me, please. Just wanted you to know that there may be hope out there yet for finding out who Nancy was.If we can either rule the Darlingtons in or out we will have accomplished something. If we can't connect, maybe we can at least rule them out...."
Is it possible that there was a Nancy born to John and Elinor Armstrong Darlington about 1776 who came to SC with them? Was one a Nancy who married Thomas Washington in about 1790?
Terisa Washington Baker writes that ".... finally, the Orangeburgh District, SC 1790 census shows Edward with 2 males of 16 and older, 2 males under 16 and 6 females; all free white.John Darlington is on column 3 with a family of 2 males of 16 and older, 1 male under 16 and 2 females." (Ed.: this is surely Nancy's family)
Margaret, again: "Also, I do think that when we finally find itthat Nancy, wife of Thomas, will be either a wife #2 or have another name such as Anne or Elizabeth.She lived 20 years longer than Thomas so it might make sense that she was younger. (ed.: but note that the St Clair 1850 census has Nancy age 74... thus born in 1776).Also, Gwen has found several people in Barnwell, SC, with surname of Allen and also same surname in St. Clair County in early 1800's.She said that many Washingtons have A. as a middle initial."An Allen marriage? Thus there can be the following case: Thomas marries an Allen in 1789 or 1790; Allen Washington is born.(ed.: but see Gwen's birth order below, suggesting that Allen is younger than the first three children).Mrs. Washington dies, he remarries before 1795 when the next child is born. This could fit Nancy's age-- born 1776 with a 1790 birth being pretty young. Were she married in 1793, she would be seventeen.
I have also been curious of the name Darlington. It is fairly rare in the south. But then what of Darlington, SC? A history of that region, courtesy of the Old Darlington District Chapter of S.C.G.S., P.O. Box 175, Hartsville, South Carolina, says:"The settlement of what is now Darlington County began in earnest after 1736 and 1737 when the province of South Carolina set aside a vast area of land for the Welsh Baptists of Delaware. This Welsh Track bordered on both sides of the Pee Dee River. Soon after the first settlers began to arrive they constituted the Welsh Neck Baptist Church. This church was first located on the north side of the Pee Dee River, opposite present-day Society Hill. For almost thirty years settlers concentrated on the banks and small tributaries of the Pee Dee River. Beginning in the 1760's and continuing into the 1770's other groups slowly made their way into present-day Darlington and were granted lands on Lynches Creek (River), Jeffries Creek, and a host of other watercourses. These later settlers included descendants of French Huguenots, Scott-Irish, and the English. For three decades following the arrival of the first settlers, local government did not exist for the citizens of the area. All deeds, estate settlements, and other legal matters had to be taken to Charles Town to be recorded. In 1769, by an Act of the Assembly, Cheraw District was established as a Judicial District. A courthouse and gaol were built at Long Bluff (near present day Society Hill) and were operational by late 1772.After the Revolutionary War, in 1785, Cheraw District was divided into three counties, Marlborough, Chesterfield, and Darlington. Darlington County was bounded by Cedar Creek, the Pee Dee River, and Lynches Creek (River). To this day there is uncertainty concerning why the county was named Darlington. A new county seat was established near the center of the county, Darlington Court House. After 1798 the designation "county" was changed to "district." In the 1868 South Carolina Constitution, the designation reverted back to county. "
Note that the Darlingtons who settled in the Orangeburg, now Barnwell, District, were from Delaware! And the Barnwell area is not so far from the Darlington area.
Of the children, Gwen Washington notes that the first three, Edward, John, and Rebecca, were born in Winton Co., S.C., and the rest, Allen, Darlington, George, William, and Cynthia, were born in Barnwell Co, S.C. (which came from Winton Co.) I am adopting this as the order and estimating birth years where we do not know. (ed.: Later I checked the dates and Winton Co. became Barnwell District in 1798, later Barnwell Co. in 1868. Thus if Rebecca is the age we believe, she was born in the new Barnwell District)
Based on circumstantial evidence, I am adopting Nancy Darlington as Mrs. Washington, accepting she might be the second.
Marriage Notes for Thomas Washington and Nancy Darlington:
Margaret Thompson, Bremen,Alabama,wrote an article for St. Clair Heritage Book that states Thomas and Nancy were married in Winton, SC, about 1790-1793.(her note to me, 7-26-98.)
Children of Thomas Washington and Nancy Darlington are:
|Edward Washington, born 1795 in Winton Co., SC; died Aft. 1860 in MS or TX122; married Susan ?; born Abt. 1796; died Bet. 1840 - 1845123.
| Notes for Edward Washington:
In the 1820 St Clair Co. Alabama census, an Edward Washington is shown as over 21, married to a female over 21, with two boys and a girl in the household.
He was livingin Choctaw County, Mississippi in 1855 at the time of his mother's estate settlement.
Gwen Washington gives his children as:
1. Salley ? Washington b: BEF. 1815
2. Jeremiah Washington b: ABT. 1815 in Barnwell Dist. SC
3. Thomas Washington b: 20 OCT 1820 in St. Clair Co Alabama
4. Susanah Washington b: ABT. 1825 in St. Clair Co Alabama
5. Rebecca Ann Washington b: ABT. 1827
6. Amanda Washington b: ABT. 1830
7. John Washington b: ABT. 1834
8. John Russel Washington b: ABT. 1842(ed.: this name is curious because of the James Russell Washington elsewhere, my great grandfather.)
Paulette Gilchrist gives this listing:
1. Sally Washington b: 1815 in South Carolina
2. Jeremiah Washington b: 12 APR 1816 in Barnwell District, South Carolina
3. Thomas "Tom" Washington b: 20 OCT 1820 in St Clair County, Alabama
4. Suzanna Washington b: 1825 in St Clair Co., Alabama
5. Elizabeth Washington b: 1825 in St Clair Co., Alabama
6. Rebakah Ann Washington b: 25 JUN 1826 in Alabama
7. Amanda Washington b: 1830 in Alabama
8. John Washington b: 1834 in St Clair Co., Alabama
|John Washington124, born 1797 in Winton Co., SC; died 1860 in St. Clair Co., AL; married (1) Lavina Abt. 1823; born Abt. 1803; died Aft. 1834; married (2) Mary Eliza Edwards Abt. 1840; born Abt. 1820.
| Notes for John Washington:
He was in St. Clair Co., Alabama in 1855 as shown in his mother's estate settlement. Gwen Washington notes he is shown in the 1860 mortality schedule, St. Clair Co.
Also, it is likely those listed beneath him are his family here:

The census above is sort of a jumble of families which I believe various descendants have sorted out for us, and which I reflect in these notes. For example, John, aged one, is the child of Allen and Rebecca, while the other six year old John is John and Mary's child. They are at least shown in that sequence....
Gerry Williams, John's great great granddaughter, says:I have photocopies of John's will (John born abt 1796) with names of heirs, which leads me to believe that my list is accurate.Dates of birth where I have given a year areestimates based on Census.I also have copies of legal papers in which John's first wife, Lavina,gave upher rights to land owned by John.
One of James Knox Polk Washington's sons was named John A. Washington. He was born in 1877.
|Allen Washington125, born 1798 in Barnwell Co., SC126,127,128; died Aft. 1860 in St. Clair Co., AL129,130; married Rebecca 1826; born 1808 in SC131; died Aft. 1860.
| Notes for Allen Washington:
He was in St. Clair Co., Alabama in 1855 as shown in his mother's estate settlement.
Note from Paulette Gilchrist, Ala. " I am descended from Thomas and Nancy's son Allen, then Henry, Robert Willis and Joel Byrd."
The children footnoted as such are from Margaret Thompson's records.
Gwen Washington, op. cit., notes that:Allen stayed in St. Clair Co. Am not convinced all children listed with him are really his.Also think Rebecca listed with him is sister not wife.Don't know who his wife is.
| Notes for Rebecca:
Paulette Gilchrist <firstname.lastname@example.com>, an Allen Washington descendant, says in Jan., 2000:
"... In 1860 census records of St. Clair Co., Al.
Allen - age 70 - born 1790 in S.C.Rebecca - age 72 - born 1788 in S.C. In 1870 census, neither are listed.Thomas Washington's family came to St. Clair Co., in 1820. I believe Allen was already married at this time. Allen purchased land in 1824 here.John came in 1819 and bought the original land in the 1820 land purchase deal. Thomas later bought land from John. I have documents for the above information.... Paulette"
|Rebecca Washington132, born 1799 in BarnwellCo., SC133; died Aft. 1859; met Samuel Hollingsworth 30 December 1830 in St. Clair Co., AL134; born Abt. 1800.
| Notes for Rebecca Washington:
Shewas in St. Clair Co., Alabama in 1855 as shown in her mother's estate settlement.
Craig Washington notes,April 02, 2000 that:I have a Rebecca Washington born 1800 in SC married to Samuel HOLLINGSWORTH 30 December 1830 at St. Clair Co., AL.And another born 1828 in AL.The Washingtons of SC are most likely descended from Thomas WASHINGTON b. 1776 and part of the Edward Washington line....
|Annie Washington135, born Abt. 1800 in SC136; died Aft. 1860 in Parker Co., TX; married William S. Herring; born 1774 in SC137,138; died 1871 in Parker Co., TX139.
| Notes for Annie Washington:
Annie is buried in Parker County within yards of Darlington Washington's marker. She married a Herring, and I think she is Darlington's sister. If her mother were Nancy Darlington and her father Thomas Washington, then her brother is Darlington.Note the large gap in children after 1806 all the way to 1812. Perhaps that is when she arrived?But the 1860 census which gives her birth in SC says she is 60, so she is more likely born in about 1800. She is on the same page as Darlington!
I think it likely she is a child of Thomas and Nancy (note the Annie as a dimunitive of Anne as is Nancy) and born either in the gap 1799-1804 or 1806-1812. That would make her the right age for her children. I am going to add her to this family with caveats, but since they are buried in the same cemetery it is almost a sure thing that she and Darlington are siblings!
This quest was launched by this note from John/Doug Wood <firstname.lastname@example.com> in September 2005 while I was in Italy.
Subject: Darlington Washington genealogy
I was reading the notes for Darlington Washington posted (at your site).
There is another grave nearby (in the Hill Cemetery where Darlington is marked) where the wife of Wiliam S Herring b 1774 in SC..d 1871 (he was in the war of 1812)...his wife Annie Washington is also buried here.Her tombstone has no dates. I was wondering if you knew if she was some kin to Darlington Washington....
Annie Washington is my wife's ggg grandmother..there are five generations of Herrings buried in this cemetery .... we live close by this cemetery and have been there many times.... the D Washington grave is very close to the Herringgraves probably within 20 feet....Your notes were veryinteresting ...I would like to know if you have any info that would help me to determine if this AnnieWashington is kin to Darlington.Thanks for anyhelp, I will give you any info that I have on the Herrings if you are interrested...Doug Wood
Later, from John Wood:Pat,The following web page is has very accuarate genealogy for william s herring-annie washington decendants...bert herring is my wifes father..he is the gg grandson of william s herring and annie washington..and the great grandson of william washington herring...http://webpages.charternet/jlhemphill1/
This web page also has a link to the Hill cemetery listing..Jerald Hemphill has done a really good job of research.the Herring part of this research is the part I am familiar with and it is accurate.
Please let me know if you find a link from Darlington Washington and Annie Washington..Also let me know if there is anything in the North Texas area that I could possibly look up for you here,concerning Darlington Washington. thanks for your reply, john wood

| Notes for George Washington:
1855 Estate settlement document:"George Washington, who resides somewhere in the State of Mississippi."
Gwen Washington says he was in Tishomingo Co., MS, and later moved on to Texas,He died in Cass County but is buried with no stone in the Old Union Cemetery in Bowie County, near Simms, Texas.(For this latter information I am indebted to Jill Mohon and her Small Planet WorldConnect site, 2004.)
In October 2005, I have this interesting note from Terrie Washington, <firstname.lastname@example.com>, most likely a cousin.
"I recently found information that traces my John C. HALFORD [ALFORD] to Barnwell SC. He may have been a jp in Barnwell SC, Pike Co. AL and Simpson Co. MS. He also may of had a brother who was sheriff in Barnwell SC, William HALFORD, noted in court transcripts. JC HALFORD owned slaves and was listed in slave schedules in Russell & Coosa Cos. AL (1840, 1850), and Calhoun Co. MS (1860), where he was mis-spelled in census and slaves schedules in Calhoun Co. MS [HOLFORD, 1860], but was in same household as my 2nd great
grandfather John C. WASHINGTON, and wife Margaret LEWELLEN. I also recently found JC Halford's wife's grave at Methodist campground [Ragland] Cemetery in Calhoun Co. MS, which I just visited and is in pathetic condition. Down the street from my George W's grave. Catharine Brown-Halford b. Jan 13 1795, d. Feb 1, 1854 (daugh. of James b. SC, d.Warren MS), wife of John HALFORD. So Halford's must have moved to MS before the rest of the family, as WASHINGTONs arrived about 1858-1860. Catharine's family moved to Warren MS from SC much earlier.
"I note a John ALFORD was living next door to another George WASHINGTON b. 1806 in 1820 St. Clair Co. AL census, the same George WASHINGTON [son of Thomas] that had moved to Harris Co. GA (bordering Calhoun Co. AL where Halfords & my W's lived), then that same George moved later to Rusk TX where I find an Amanda Conaway living next door to him [an Amanda Conaway was listed in Halford household in 1850 Coosa Co. MS]. Coincidence?
"Thanks for the family tree!Terrie
"Washington's of Coosa & Russell Cos. AL, also Calhoun & Pontotoc Cos. MS"
Terrie has added more to all this:
"Well, I just found land records that James BROWN, father of Catharine BROWN (wife of John C HALFORD) is from Barnwell SC, I found court records that John C. HALFORD lived there too. I bet they wern't too far from the WASHINGTONs. Like I said before, John C. HALFORD was next door to your George WASHINGTON (brother of Darling) in 1820 St. Clair SC (spelled ALFORD). The same George WASHINGTON moved and was living in 1830 Harris Co GA bordering Russell Co. AL where my George WASHINGTON and father-in-law John HALFORD lived. I think that your families George WASHINGTON b. 1804 fathered a son at 16-17 years of age; my George WASHINGTON b. 1821. I would bet money on this. Benjamin WASHINGTON (of my family) always said that he had cousins in south Mississippi, I bet it's the W's that moved there from St. Clair. Terrie W"

| Notes for William Thomas Washington:
Residence listed as unknown in 1855 in the estate settlement of his mother.
Gwen Washington says that " William came to Panola Co. MS. by 1850.Was not listed on 1860 census but most of his children and wife were.Don't know their whereabouts in 1870 but they must have stayed close to sister Cynthia's children since William's dau. married Cynthia's son.

| Notes for Cynthia Washington:
Cynthia m. Michael McKinney (estate settlement listed given name incorrectly).They moved to the Western Division of Chickasaw Co. Ms. by 1850.They had many children:James E.b. 1835 m. Charlotte Miller, William A. b, 1837 m. Sarah Washington abt. 1860-63 George M b. ca. 1839, Matilda b. 1841, Sarah J. b. 1843, John L. b. 1845, Thomas A. b. 1848, Allen b. 1851-52.Then Cynthia died and was probably buried in Chickasaw Co.After her death, Michael moved to Lafayette Co. Ms. where the older son married.Michael remarried and had another large family.He probably died between 1870 and 1880. We do not know what happened to the children after that. Some suspect they went to Texas like so many others in family.
Gwen Washington, op. cit. writes:I am trying to find the burial place for Cynthia Washington McKinney who was wife of Michael Mckinney. She was b. abt. 1815 in SC and died between 1850-1855 in Chickasaw Co. She and Michael lived in western division of Chickasaw Co. in 1850. Would anyone know anything about the whereabouts of her burial place or exactly when she died? Would appreciate any help.
| Notes for Michael McKinney:
The incorrect name of Mitchell McKinney is derived from the 1855 estate settlement of Cynthia's mother. Their residence is noted as "somewhere in the State of Mississippi." But see Gwen's note under Cynthia about his name, which is often given as McKinny. In the 1800 and 1810 Barnwell District federal censuses, there are McKinnys (without the ey) near the Washingtons, a Thomas in 1800 and 1810, and Michael in 1810. Both families have boys who could be this Michael.
In February, 2003, I received this kind note from Tony McKinney, <firstname.lastname@example.com>, using that spelling:"I am the grandson of Robert W. McKinney of St. Clair, AL. I am seeking more information on the McKinney/Washington families. Any help you could provide would be wonderful. He had a son named Robert W. McKinney (my father) I am also named Robert W. McKinney.... Thanks for any help, Tony McKinney"

Rule 1: Don't Do All-Neutral Rooms
Low-intensity hues, including beige, taupe and other neutrals, get a bad rap, but they are easy on the eye, calming and serene. The key is to incorporate plenty of variety—note the wicker lamp, leather end table and subtle wallpaper print in this room—while staying within the subdued palette.
Make It Work:
• Employ different shades of the tone, ranging from off-white to brown.
• Use an array of textures including wood, wicker, velvet, nubby fabrics and metals.
• Add tone-on-tone pattern to the scheme with fabric and wallpaper.

THEATER REVIEW | 'THE GERSHWINS' PORGY AND BESS'; A New Storm's Brewing Down on Catfish Row
By BEN BRANTLEY
Published: January 13, 2012
The hurricane that's said to be headed for Catfish Row has yet to arrive early in the second act of ''The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess,'' which opened on Thursday night in a new, slimmed-down reincarnation at the Richard Rodgers Theater. The climate so far might be described as mostly cloudy and mild, as might this version of the show. But suddenly an elemental force takes possession of the stage, and its tremors course through the audience.
That's the storm raging within a woman who's tearing herself to pieces before our eyes, fighting with her infernal attraction to a man she knows she should be fleeing. For devastating theatrical impact, it's hard to imagine any hurricane matching the tempest that is the extraordinary Audra McDonald's Bess at the moment she is reunited with her former lover, Crown, played by Phillip Boykin. And no matter what they're calling it these days -- a musical, I believe -- ''Porgy and Bess'' has suddenly risen to its natural heights as towering, emotion-saturated opera.
Let me linger on this scene for a moment, if I may, because it's the only one that seems to realize fully the intentions of the creators and reinventors of this landmark opera from 1935. The director Diane Paulus, working with the playwright Suzan-Lori Parks and the composer Diedre L. Murray, has spoken of trying to make a more accessible ''Porgy and Bess'' -- the George Gershwin, Dubose and Dorothy Heyward and Ira Gerswhin portrait of fraught love and hard lives in an African-American enclave of Charleston, S.C.
For this production, which originated at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, Mass., Ms. Paulus has said that she and her colleagues were ''excavating and shaping and modernizing the story.'' Mostly, as far as I can see, this has meant scrapping much of the score, using dialogue instead of recitative and reducing sets and cast to an affordable minimum. (Not incidentally, the Gershwin estate has authorized this production, hoping that it can be licensed as an eminently mountable Broadway-style musical.)
The resulting two-and-a-half-hour ''Porgy and Bess'' -- originally a fat, four-hour opera teeming with layers of life and music -- sometimes feels skeletal. But in that seduction scene I mentioned above I began to see how a stripped-bare ''Porgy and Bess'' might really work.
What happens in it is simple to the point of primal. A woman is surprised by a man in a deserted place (Kittiwah Island, it's called), and that man embodies everything she has been trying to put behind her. Crown was Bess's lover, in the days when she was known as a ''liquor-guzzling slut,'' but he's been in hiding from the police. Now living with the honorable Porgy (Norm Lewis), she's closed that chapter in her life. Or so she thinks.
But as soon as Mr. Boykin's Crown calls out to Ms. McDonald's Bess, you know she's a goner. Mr. Boykin is a big man with a big rumbling baritone, and Bess (and the audience) hasn't heard a male voice of that power -- that is, one that matches her lusty soprano -- since he disappeared in the first act. And though part of their angry, erotically charged encounter is spoken, the boundaries between speech and song blur here.
The starkness of the setting, and even the reduced underscoring of the orchestra, suit the moment. As this man and this woman move toward the violent and inevitable outcome of their meeting, their passion needs no embellishment. And Bess -- who has already been drawn by Ms. McDonald as a compellingly conflicted soul -- acquires the full dimensions of a tragic heroine.
Ms. McDonald, for the record, never recedes from those heights. Her Bess, which I first saw in this production's original staging in Cambridge in August, remains a major work of musical portraiture, one that realizes the ambition of Ms. Paulus and company to bring fresh psychological complexity and visceral immediacy to a classic.
But there's a catch. Ms. McDonald's Bess is -- in a word -- great; the show in which she appears is, at best, just pretty good. She and (the robust and intimidating) Mr. Boykin inhabit a world of exalted, dangerous passions that is separate from the rest of the denizens of Catfish Row.
As it is the show is much improved, clearer and more fluid, than it was in Cambridge. (And by the way, for all the predictions of major plot changes, it hews closely to the original; even the new dialogue is inconspicuous.) Though Riccardo Hernandez's abstract, weathered wooden set still fails to evoke a specific sense of place, it at least now has a few new details that help you figure you out what scene you're in. (Christopher Akerlind's lighting is more precisely defined as well.)
The ensemble members, roughly half as many as past Broadway productions, have a relatively persuasive ease with their multipart choral numbers. And wearing sociologically exact costumes by ESosa, they execute Ronald K. Brown's choreography (which weds 1930's swing steps with African ritualism) with pleasing confidence, particularly when the sexes face off in ''A Woman Is a Sometime Thing'' (led by the likable Joshua Henry, late of ''The Scottsboro Boys'').
Mr. Lewis, a Broadway veteran (''Sondheim by Sondheim,'' ''The Little Mermaid''), combines modesty and dignity as the crippled Porgy. His singing voice is supple and smooth, and his ''I Got Plenty of Nothing'' is rendered with a charming nonchalance.
But as reconceived for this version, he lacks the haunted gravity and touch of mysticism that Porgy needs. (It doesn't help that in this production he's lost the ominous solo ''Buzzard Song.'') And when Porgy and Bess sing together, Ms. McDonald so overpowers Mr. Lewis vocally, their duets seem to confirm the townsfolk's speculation that Bess isn't Porgy's kind of woman .
David Alan Grier, in the stand-out role of the rakish, drug-dealing Sporting Life, has grown into his performance, and he now provides a sustained and engaging take on this Mephistophelean character. He consistently evokes (without copying) the jaunty seductiveness of Cab Calloway (who played Sporting Life in the 1950's). And NaTasha Yvette Williams gives a warmly detailed interpretation of the maternal, imperious Mariah that helps ground us in the values of Catfish Row. Perhaps more than anyone else onstage, she seems organically to belong there.
The enduring and magnetic appeal of Gershwin's score is undeniable. It is pleasantly sung and played here. (William David Brohn and Christopher Jahnke did the new orchestrations; Constantine Kitsopolous is the music director and conductor.) Yet even theatergoers unfamiliar with ''Porgy and Bess'' may sense a thinness in the music. The big spiritual choral numbers should storm the gates of heaven; here they sound pretty but defeated and earthbound, like angels shorn of their wings.
It seems safe to predict that Ms. McDonald, a four-time Tony winner, will be in contention for all the prizes on offer this season. She should be. You don't need the scar that brands her cheek to tell this Bess is damaged goods (and all too aware of that status) and a woman who has always lived in defiance of the pain she is in. That's evident in her very posture, a mix of coiled defensiveness and thrusting exhibitionism, from the moment she sets foot onstage.
And when she sings -- ah, it's a God-touched voice that turns suffering and ugliness into beauty. No wonder the people of Catfish Row don't think she belongs among them. This Bess has the breath of divinity in a world that feels entirely too mundane to keep her.

Comment on this article This essay provides a sense of the literature written specifically about intelligence analysis , including general definitions, themes, divergent views, and observations on gaps in literature coverage. A comprehensive review of the literature indicates that while much has been written, largely there has not been a progression of thinking relative to the core aspect and complexities of doing intelligence analysis; hence, the title, "Once Again," with all its connotations. The essay focuses on the core aspect of analysis, the determination of meaning. After a brief review of Sherman Kent's comprehensive work, the role of mental models in determining meaning is discussed, followed by recurring alternative views of analysis processes and their chronologies. Key elements of the analysis processes are then discussed, including hypotheses, information research, and the marshaling of evidence, including how they influence the determination of meaning. The literature on rigor in intelligence analysis is reviewed, including the role of structured analytic techniques and automated tools. The essay concludes with observations on the state of the literature. Hundreds of works have been written on intelligence. Many of these works at least touch on the subject of intelligence analysis . However, while still a large body of work, it is a considerably smaller set that ... log in or subscribe to read full text

I think "No man knows" includes people who prophesy on internet conspiracy websites.
Really, you make all people who consider themselves Christian look like a bunch of loonies. Like me. I very much believe revelation has not stopped, but using internet forums? Not exactly Heavenly Father's style. Nor Christ's.
You also seem to think that God has changed his mind, after promising he wouldn't do the whole Noah thing all over again. And his promise to Lot to spare Sodom and Gomorrah if there was even one righteous person lived there. So you don't think God can keep his promises?
Gee, I do. You don't have much faith in God, do you? Why would God prophesy through someone who thinks he won't keep his promises? HE WOULDN'T.
Just sayin'.......

Interesting, but wasn't Jesus the "Son of God"? As I recall, it was God, not Jesus, who told Lot to leave Sodom. Actually, Jesus wouldn't have been conceived by God for another thousand or so years. So, that's strike 1 against this.
Strike 2: Unless I missed the memo, Jesus has yet to return to Earth. So how exactly is this guy talking to him? Through Facebook?
Strike 3: Jesus was to be the savior of all mankind. That included, in the time that he was alive, sexual deviants, prostitutes, thieves...I'm pretty sure this goes against all that Jesus supposedly taught while he was here. He would not have advocated the destruction of entire cities just to "cleanse" them from sin, that's not his M.O.

Anybody else take a look at the site that was linked in the OP?. Apparently "Jesus" has been talking to this guy a lot. He even says that there have been other civilizations before this one. While I agree somewhat with that theory, pretty sure Jesus hasn't had much to say on the subject. From the looks of it, this guy is a "Jesus told me" type of con man.

Jesus said: "My people, you are SEEING MUCH SIN IN SAN FRANCISCO AND NEW YORK CITY.
These sexual sins are calling on My punishment for HOMOSEXUAL ACTS AND FORNICATION.
The vision shows My severe punishment of SAN FRANCISCO, when it will be SUBMERGED into the ocean from an EARTHQUAKE because of the homosexual sins.
There is also coming more punishment for NEW YORK CITY from storms and other means of destruction.
Recently, New York State has approved homosexual marriage.
THESE SINS ARE ALL ABOMINATIONS and these cities will NOT ESCAPE MY PUNISHMENT for their sins.
This is because IN A SHORT TIME THESE CITIES WILL SUFFER MY WRATH.
I have put up with man's sins for too long, but NOW THESE CITIES ARE CALLING DOWN MY JUSTICE.
Pray for the souls of the people of these cities because many may die suddenly without being ready to meet Me at their judgment."

text: Thanks to all of you who offered me tips on fishing Chopoka. You helped make my first trip to the lake a very successful one. I will return next year. For those of you who live west of the Cascades and have not had the pleasure of fishing Chopaka you should be forewarned that making a trip to the lake is a fairly major undertaking. From where I live on Hood Canal it took about two days to get to the lake. OK, I exaggerate – it just seemed like two days. Actually it took about 7 hours with stops (and at my age you have to stop). Another way to measure the distance is that it was an 8 to 10 radio station trip (depending on your reception and taste). The last 10 miles to the lake is on a gravel road that has an initial gradient of about 35 degrees followed by a bouncy, steep descent into the lake. I arrived at the lake around 2 pm on Friday, October 4. I set up camp (only about half the total campsites were occupied) and was on the water by 3 pm. It was sunny with a moderate breeze that died by 4:30. I flippered my pontoon south dragging a brown wooly worm. I planned on switching to a carey special as Roper had suggested to me in an earlier post. The brown wooly elicited a few hits so I decided to tie on a sparkly green wooly worm just before 4 pm. I immediately landed a nice chunky 14 to 15 inch rainbow. Within 5 minutes I had a second rainbow in my net. About 4:15 I was curious to see if I could get any action using dry flies. I tried an orange stimulater followed by a Joe's Hopper. No action on either fly. By this time I was all the way to the south end of the lake. I put the sparkly green wooly back on and landed three more nice healthy rainbows on my way back up the lake. By this point I knew I was going to have a very good trip. I started fishing the next day (October 5) at 8:30. It was quite cool and overcast when I began fishing and stayed that way all day. Within the first 5 minutes I had another nice rainbow in the net. Then, for the next hour, it closed down. I switched to a black and green wooly and ended up with two more nice fish. As I was heading back into camp I hooked a broad-shouldered rainbow of around 17 inches that immediately flew into the air about a foot and snapped off my black and green wooly on his way back into the water. I got out of the pontoon, took care of business brought on by one too many cups of coffee, pinched myself to be sure I wasn't just dreaming about catching nice fat rainbows and then headed out again. Although there wasn't much surface activity I remained curious about using a dry fly. I tied on a parachute adams and was lucky enough to entice yet another fish to my net. I missed one other fish with the adams before changing back to a wooly. At about this point in the day my right foot felt awfully cool. I flippered back to camp and, much to my disgust, found out I had a leak somewhere in my right foot. After much searching I couldn't find where the wader was leaking. I resorted to a plastic bag around my foot in hopes that my foot would stay dry. Yeah, fat chance of that working. I fished with a wet right foot. October 7 was my last day at Chopaka. Because of my wader leak I only fished in the morning. I was lucky enough to land another rainbow using a parachute adams and one more fish using a black wooly. The pictures below are of Chopaka and a few of the lovely fish that consented to be caught. Note that no fish were harmed during the making of this great trip. In summary, I had a great trip and was able to catch quite a few 14 to 17 inch rainbows. Green wooly buggers and black/green woolys worked best for me. I didn't even try a carey – maybe next year. I concentrated on the southern shallower part of the lake on both the east and west sides as well as the middle section of the lake. One last non-fishing related point: I've lived in Washington for many years and like many other western Washington folk I know that our state produces a lot of apples (in addition to grapes, wheat, corn, etc). However, I had no appreciation of the scale of apple production until this trip. Driving from Oroville south to Wenatchee I swear there are more apple orchards than there are republicans in Utah. It is an unbroken orchard for miles and miles and miles. If you haven't been to Chopaka, make plans to go. If you have been, make plans to return. It is a great fishery.

Feeling great about yourself is important, and through this class kids will learn to appreciate their own capabilities and trust in themselves while improving their overall health."
The goals of PUR Fit Kids reflect Brown's concern over the confidence of children in today's society, as the program aims to improve the minds and bodies of its participants. Through the specially designed lessons that have been developed by e-motion and Laurel Fitness, kids in this exceptional class will: control their weight; expend their energy in a positive way; get better sleep at night; improve their self-esteem;

These parents will receive a 15 percent discount on Brown's one on one personal training packages. Laurel Fitness offers family discounts, as well.
PUR Fit Kids is a weekly class that will begin on October 3, 2011. Interested parents are encouraged to register their kids soon, as classes are limited to 10 students.

Welcome To My Heart! - Poem by Romeo Della Valle
Just when my life
Was about to collapse,
Drown in an ocean of pain
And desperation,
You happened to come to me
Wearing the perfume
Only found in the flowers
Of my colorful garden…
You have come to me,
Not too late
But just in time
When I needed you the most!
As I expected you to,
As I painted you in my mind
And saw you
In my peaceful dreams!
No more finding parts of you
Scattered all over the world,
Now, you have finally
Come to me as a whole!
Here is my now healed heart,
Newly painted and decorated
And ready for your expected arrival!
Convinced I am
That the search is over
And nothing will stop me
From telling you loud and clear:
"Welcome to My Heart my dear"

I'd appreciate it if anyone with any raw data of species numbers, sex ratio, numbers of bristles in the sex combs or anything relevant with which I could compare my results, could let me have a copy of the said data. Full acknowledgement would be given in my report. I can also be e-mailed at 100255,3547 at Compuserve.com Thanks, Noreen Wilkinson

James Carville is getting his wish. A few weeks ago, he penned an essay in this newspaper saying that if he could, he would run for mayor — but that was not his point. His point was that New Orleans' future is brighter than many think, and potential candidates should not be daunted by the array of problems that await the next mayor.
Carville's message was lost on a lot of people, who focused solely on him running. Fortunately, enough others understood what he was saying — and some of them are now seriously thinking of running for mayor. They include eastern New Orleans businessman Troy Henry and businesswoman and education reformer Leslie Jacobs.
At the same time, one potential candidate has opted out, though not because he was cowed by the competition or the job. Engineer-businessman Roy Glapion has decided not to run, citing family considerations.
For now, the field of announced and quasi-announced candidates includes state Sen. Ed Murray, state Rep. Austin Badon, attorney-businessman Rob Couhig, businessman John Georges, attorney-activist James Perry and former Judge Nadine Ramsey. The mere possibility of Henry and/or Jacobs running adds interesting dimensions to what has been a low-key race so far.
Henry, like Georges, would have no problem financing his own campaign. A native of the Lower 9th Ward and a graduate of St. Augustine High School, Stanford and Carnegie Mellon, Henry is a self-made businessman who, with his childhood friend, actor Wendell Pierce, is rebuilding Pontchartrain Park. If he runs, Henry would complicate things for Badon and Murray. Badon already is struggling to raise money and name recognition, and both he and Henry live in eastern New Orleans. Murray has some traction as the leading black candidate, but he lacks the charisma and executive experience that Henry has in abundance. Henry adds that Pierce will serve as his campaign chairman, which will give star power to his candidacy and make Murray seem even more like a wallflower by comparison. As of last week, Henry seemed inclined to run, but he was still vetting the idea with friends, family and advisors.
Jacobs has a business background as a successful insurance executive, but she also has held elective office as a member of the Orleans Parish School Board. She later was appointed to the state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE), so she knows her way around state and local government. She recently has been a leading advocate of public school reform, particularly charter schools. Unlike Henry, she is not on the cusp of jumping into the race. She is polling the idea and will decide in early November whether to run. Until then, she will generate a lot of buzz — and if she runs, she will complicate things for Georges, who until now has been the leading white candidate. Like Ramsey, she could galvanize the female vote. And like Henry, she will not have problems raising money if she decides to run.
The biggest challenge for both Henry and Jacobs will be the Nagin Factor. Eight years ago, voters elected "businessman" Ray Nagin, and it didn't work out so well. Truth be told, Nagin was never a businessman — but he was branded as such. Polls now show that voters are looking for someone with political and governmental competence, not necessarily business chops. Henry and Jacobs thus will have a twofold challenge: first, they must dispel the myth that Nagin was actually a businessman; and second, they must convince voters to take a chance on a real businessperson.
It will not be easy, but at least for now it's looking like we might — finally — have ourselves a mayor's race.
