I love genealogy conferences but I didn't know that until last August. FGS 2010 in Knoxville was my very first genealogy conference. I was addicted by the end of the first day so imagine how thrilled I am to be one of the Official Bloggers for FGS 2011!
I've had FGS 2011 in Springfield, Illinois on my calendar since before I got home from Knoxville. I made hotel reservations months ago and have scoped out a couple of places on the road between here and there where I can do some research on the way home. Well, they are between here and there if I go a slightly different than direct route but research is never really "out of the way" - is it?
Looking at the list of Official Bloggers leaves me a bit in awe. They are some of the best-known and most popular genealogy bloggers around and I don't know how I could be on a list of any kind with them. I will be working extra hard to try to live up.
If you happened to read my recent blogging about NGS there is one thing I can tell you right now that will be much improved at FGS. There will be more pictures and better pictures. I left the "big" camera at home on that trip in favor of the "little" camera that fits in a pocket. I decided long before leaving Charleston that I would not make that mistake again.
According to the countdown clock in the upper right corner of my laptop screen, it's only 3 months, 5 days, 10 hours and 15 minutes until I leave for FGS 2011. It will be here before we know it so if you are planning to go but haven't registered yet run on over to the conference website right now. Remember the deadline for getting the early registration discount is July 1st.
Disclosure: As an official blogger, I received free registration for FGS 2011 and a ticket to a social event.

Data management systems speed product development, boost product quality, and cut time to market and lifecycle costs. But what size systems do manufacturers need? This blog post is published in conjunction with Design World and our software partner Kenesto.
Effective data management is critical for successful product development and manufacturing. With an effective data management system in place, designers can create innovative, high-quality products quickly and efficiently, and these products can be manufactured with minimal errors and rework. But companies floundering amid large volumes of historical data and even lost or irretrievable designs can get caught in a quagmire that slows them down or, at worst, pulls them under. That may sound extreme but companies that don't have a way to effectively manage their design data face lengthy design cycles, loss of profit, and general paralysis.
Poor data management makes for wasted design time and other inefficiencies. Time is lost in recreating existing designs that can't be retrieved or can't be interpreted. Inefficiencies come about when users waste unnecessary time on data management itself, perhaps checking designs in and out of a home-grown company system and inadvertently overwriting designs in the process. Once a change is made on that type of system, it can be impossible to track down how errors were introduced.
According to a study by independent research firm Tech-Clarity, technical personnel at more than 26 percent of 2,000 companies surveyed spend at least 20 percent of their time on data management tasks that bring no value to the business. That's more than one day each week, per employee! Overall the respondents declared 15 percent of their technical staff's time was wasted on nonproductive tasks.
From the same Tech-Clarity survey, the chart below shows some of the main areas where manufacturers are experiencing problems in the area of data management. And top of this list is that searching for and retrieving data is too time consuming - forty percent of Tech-Clarity survey respondents said they have problems in this area. They often need to check multiple servers, locations, and sites and use multiple log-ins when looking for data. If the data is lost for good, designers may have to recreate it, wasting time they could be spending on new design projects.
But searching isn't the only negative impact on design time. Those surveyed also said everyday tasks can be too time consuming without a good data management system in place. Issues related to tracking engineering changes and release processes also contribute to wasted time and delayed time to market. And this is true even for the smallest companies, who report similar problems to their larger counterparts, especially when working with complex products.
Design is becoming more complex and faster paced and data management systems provide the capabilities to manage this fast-moving, complex environment. The same study found that leading manufacturers are one-third more likely than their counterparts to extend their data management systems beyond simply managing data. These leaders also use their systems to manage design release and engineering changes.
The systems increase efficiency and give designers time refine projects and increase innovation and throughput, as they're not spending time managing data.
Manufacturers with effective data management systems in place:
One question those looking for improved data management ask is: why not use a comprehensive product lifecycle management (PLM) system? One simple answer: You may not need that much fire power today. Companies with those tools in place often get—and pay for—more system than they need. PLM can be likened to a sumo wrestler: they're big, they're heavy and you need to study them before making the correct move.
Definitely check out simpler document management tools for your business, no matter its size. For example Solid Edge offers a scalable set of data management solutions. And Kenesto offers simple cloud based document management. Smaller systems are more manageable and more accessible while still addressing the key data management needs of manufacturers.
I'd like to here more details about this partnership with Kenesto.
Kenesto is a Software & Technolgy Partner for Siemens PLM Software - they have been quite active working with Solid Edge, for example exhibiting at our last 2 Solid Edge University events. This blog is the first in a series of 3 that you will see over the next couple of weeks - one of these will be a case study of a Solid Edge customer who is using Kenesto so that should help answer your question. My personal opinion is that Kenesto offers an interesting solution for Solid Edge users including visualization and collaboration capabilities that give it a higher level of capability than off-the-shelf cloud based file sharing software
I look forward to reading that case study.
I'm also interested in learning if the partnership will grow into an integration. Will Kenesto be a 3rd party option compared to Insight, SP, or Teamcenter? That is, beyond opening Solid Edge files in Kenesto Drive.
We just published the case study on Arnold Machine Inc. to the Solid Edge Blog - they are using Kenesto together with Solid Edge with a focus on facilitating design reviews with their customers:
And just to close the loop on this we just posted the 3rd (and final) blog post in this series that goes into a bit more detail on Kenesto's offering in this area

Wolf hunting season is still open in Idaho and how long that season will last is still in the hands of a Federal judge in Missoula, Montana. Earlier this week U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy heard arguments from both sides, after environmentalist groups filed a lawsuit to put wolves back on the endangered species list. A similar lawsuit was successful last spring just after the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service decided to de-list the wolves in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana.
Wyoming Governor Dave Freudenthal says he's been watching this week's wolf hunts in Idaho with interest, and he hopes that a Judge Molloy will allow hunts in the two states to continue this year.
Any decision the Court makes will not directly affect Wyoming since the Fish and Wildlife Service kept the wolves on the endangered species list here.
The judge has not issued his decision on the matter yet. Montana is scheduled to open their wolf hunting season on September 15th. This year's management plan calls for a harvest limit of 75 wolves throughout the state of Montana.

NEH creates learning opportunities through challenge grants, public programs, research fellowships
William R. Ferris, chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), announced today the awarding of 248 NEH grants totaling $18 million. The grants--the first of three rounds of awards that will take place in fiscal year 2001--will support humanities programs at a variety of cultural institutions, including museums, libraries, schools, universities, and documentary film producers.
A full listing of the grants (57 pages) awarded by state is available as an Adobe Acrobat file.
"The new NEH grants will enable cultural institutions throughout the nation to enrich and expand their educational offerings to various audiences," said Chairman Ferris. "Through our funding support for new public programs, scholarly research and institutional development of humanities programs, NEH has the honor of helping to tell America's stories, which build bridges of understanding among the American people."
The November NEH grants include the annual challenge grants and the annual research fellowships. For this fiscal year (2001), there are 26 challenge grants for long-term institutional development of humanities programs and 175 fellowships to support the research of individual scholars.
Challenge grants, which the institutions must match by 3 or 4 to 1, can be used in a variety of ways, including renovation of buildings where educational programs take place or collections are displayed, endowment for curatorial positions in museums or scholars-in-residence at research centers, endowment for research programs in historical societies or public programs in libraries, and endowment for acquisition of books or artifacts.
NEH fellowships have been awarded to 175 college teachers, university professors and independent scholars for research on topics in the humanities. By supporting talented researchers, NEH fellowship grants help create new knowledge in all fields of the humanities, including history, literature and philosophy.
Programs and number of projects funded this round are:
- Challenge grants (26)--$11,146,000
(Awarded to universities, colleges, public libraries, research centers, museums, other nonprofit institutions.)
- Research fellowships to individual scholars (175)--$6,125,000
- Public programs (47)--$741,000
- consultation grants for film projects, museum exhibitions, web projects (45)--441,000
- digital educational enhancements for public television documentaries (2)--300,000
NEH grants are awarded on a competitive basis. Throughout the year, humanities experts outside of the Endowment assess all applications and judge the quality and significance of each proposed project.
Created in 1965 as an independent federal agency, the National Endowment for the Humanities supports learning in history, literature, philosophy and other areas of the humanities. NEH grants enrich classroom learning, create and preserve knowledge, and bring ideas to life through public television, radio, new technologies, museum exhibitions, and programs in libraries and other community places.

EEOC Office of Legal Counsel staff members wrote the following informal discussion letter in response to an inquiry from a member of the public. This letter is intended to provide an informal discussion of the noted issue and does not constitute an official opinion of the Commission.
Title VII & ADEA: Job Advertisements
April 8, 2008
Dear ____:
This responds to your inquiry of March 18, 2008, seeking guidance about the legality of particular wording in "help wanted" advertisements in your newspapers. You want to be able to help your clients place effective non-discriminatory advertisements.
As you know, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) EEOC enforces Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, religion, and national origin; the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA), 29 U.S.C. ' 206(d), which prohibits employers from paying unequal wages to employees of the opposite sex within the same establishment and performing substantially equal work; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) of 1967, as amended, 29 U.S.C. ' 621 et seq., which protects employees age 40 or over from discrimination because of age; the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), 42 U.S.C. ' 12101 et seq., which bars employment discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities on the basis of their disabilities; and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. ' 791 et seq., which prohibits, among other things, discrimination in federal employment on the basis of disability.
You should be aware that the EEOC does not generally assess the legality of particular employment practices outside the context of specific charges of discrimination. This is because the appropriate resolution of discrimination charges involves an analysis of facts that differ from case to case. We can, however, provide you with the following general guidance on applicable principles.
You first ask whether it is legal for an employer to use phrases in job advertisements such as "women or minorities are encouraged to apply." To develop an applicant pool that reflects the demographics of the qualified labor force, it may be necessary to encourage members of underrepresented groups to apply. We know of no case in which an employer has been held liable for using such language in their job advertisements. As one court observed, "[a]n employer's affirmative efforts to recruit minority and female applicants [do] not constitute discrimination. An inclusive recruitment effort enables employers to generate the largest pool of qualified applicants and helps to ensure that minorities and women are not discriminatorily excluded from employment. This not only allows employers to obtain the best possible employees, but it is an excellent way to avoid lawsuits." Duffy v. Wolle, 123 F.3d 1026, 1038-39 (8th Cir. 1997).
Next, you ask whether use of the phrase "and others" renders nondiscriminatory an otherwise discriminatory ad. You specifically mention: "seeking stay-at-home-Moms," "seeking couples and others," and "seeking retirees and others." "Seeking" a particular kind of applicant denotes a preference for that group; it is not just "encouraging" people to submit applications. Thus, seeking persons on a protected basis, such as race or gender, would violate EEOC-enforced laws. Using the phrase "or others" probably would not redeem such an otherwise discriminatory ad, although we know of no cases involving the question.
The phrase "stay at home moms" implicates Title VII because it expresses a preference based on gender and, as noted, use of the phrase "and others" would probably not redeem it. However, EEOC enforced laws do not prohibit employers from seeking to hire "couples" because those laws do not cover marital status discrimination or any other status that would include couples. New ADEA regulations explicitly permit employers to favor relatively older persons and to express that preference in job advertisements. Section 1625.4, 72 FR 36873, July 6, 2007, http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2007/E7-13051.htm. Those regulations are based on the Supreme Court's interpretation of the ADEA in General Dynamics Land System, Inc. v. Cline, 540 U.S. 581 (2004). The Court held in Cline that the ADEA prohibits discrimination only based on relatively older age, not discrimination based on age generally. Advertising for couples or retirees might, however, implicate those state or local laws that prohibit marital status discrimination or age-based discrimination against relatively younger persons.
Finally, you ask whether there is a "definitive policy on gender-specific job titles." Noting that the term waitress is gender specific and not used in job advertisements, you question whether advertisements for "journeyman" are similarly discriminatory. You state that you understand the legally appropriate term to be journey level but that some of your clients insist on using the term 'journeyman' because of government grant/apprenticeship policies." Using a narrow term such as "waitress" in a job advertisement implicates federal EEO law because the term is likely to deter members of protected groups – in this case, men – from applying for such jobs. Although the term "journeyman" can be considered gender-specific, its use probably would not implicate the federal EEO laws to the extent that it is a term of art designating a particular skill level. The Commission has taken no position on whether "journeyman" or "journey level" is appropriate.
For additional information about EEOC enforced laws, see http://www.eeoc.gov and Section 632: Violations Involving Recordkeeping or Posting of Notice, EEOC Compliance Manual, Volume II (BNA) at ' 632.2, "Employment Opportunity Advertising;" 632.0001.
We hope that this information is helpful to you. Please note, however, that this letter does not constitute an opinion or interpretation of the EEOC within the meaning of § 713(b) of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-12(b), under § 10 of the Portal-to-Portal Act of 1947, 29 U.S.C. § 255 (EPA), or under ' 7(e) of the ADEA, as amended, 29 U.S.C. '621 et seq., which is also incorporated in Section 10 of the Portal-to-Portal Act.

Hillary Clinton Keeps Pressure on Syria's Assad as Rebels Make Gains
(BRUSSELS, Belgium) -- A shift in favor of Syria's opposition could be on the horizon in the country's civil war, according to a U.S. official, but President Bashar al-Assad is not likely to leave anytime soon.
The armed opposition is making important tactical gains that could eventually trigger a strategic shift in the conflict, the official told ABC News Wednesday, adding that pressure on the regime is mounting and Assad's forces are having difficulty beating back insurgent gains.
"Assad's levers of influence are fraying and his reach is contracting, but the regime core is a tough nut that doesn't seem to be cracking just yet," the official said. "Although pressure is mounting, it's difficult to say when the breaking point will come, because there's little to suggest that Assad is a cut-and-run kind of guy."
The U.S. official said the opposition is better supplied than in the past, but competition for resources is complicating their efforts.
"Factional infighting is clearly something the opposition has to guard against to be successful," the official said.
Tuesday, NATO decided to deploy patriot missiles to defend Turkey, a step Secretary of State Hillary Clinton praised, saying it sends "a clear message" to Syria.
"It's a great tribute to NATO that this decision to deploy patriots was taken, because it's very much in line with the solidarity of our members. This is for defensive purposes, that's made absolutely clear in the statement that was agreed upon. It is solely for the defense of Turkey," Sec. Clinton said at a news conference in Brussels Wednesday. "I don't believe that it necessarily brings any greater attention to the tragedy unfolding in Syria, but it does send a clear message to the Syrians that Turkey has the full support of it's NATO allies."
Late last week, U.S. intelligence found the Assad regime had taken preparatory steps with regards to some its chemical weapons supply.
Clinton condemned the use of chemical weapons in Syria, calling it a "red line" for the United States for a second time.
"We've made our views absolutely clear," Clinton said. "Our concerns are that an increasingly desperate Assad regime might turn to chemical weapons or might lose control of them to one of the many groups now operating within Syria. As part of the absolute unity we all have on this issue we have sent an unmistakable message that this would be a red line and those responsible will be held to account."
President Obama has said use of such weapons could trigger a response from the United States.
"The use of chemical weapons is and would be totally unacceptable," Obama said Monday. "And if you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons, there will be consequences, and you will be held accountable."
Following Clinton's press conference in Brussels Wednesday, the State Department announced she will travel to three Middle Eastern countries next week. Her first stop will be in Morocco for a Friends of Syria meeting, the success of which, she said, depends on Assad's willingness to cooperate.
"I'm looking forward to the Friends of the Syrian People meeting next week where we will explore with like-minded countries what more we can do to bring this conflict to an end," Clinton said, "but that would require the Assad regime making the decision to participate in a political transition, ending the violence against its own people. And we hope they do so because we believe their fall inevitable. It's just how question of how many people will die until that day occurs."

Women's hoops edges China 68-65 in overtime
LONDON — Playing in front of a loud enthusiastic crowd, the U.S. Paralympic Women's Wheelchair Basketball Team trailed by more than 11 points in the fourth quarter, yet rallied to beat China 68-65 in the Group B preliminary match at the London 2012 Paralympic Games on Monday.
The defending gold medalists from the 2008 Beijing Paralympic Games proved why they are such a great team.
"I feel pressure, but being able to settle that pressure," said Desi Miller (Monroe, Wash.). "I think that's what separates good teams from great teams."
Teammate Alana Nichols (Farmington, N.M.) reiterated the importance of staying calm. As she stood at the line with a chance to tie the game she said, "It was undeniable that we needed that point.
"I knew I needed to take a big deep breath, I was kind of shaking a little bit."
The deep breath worked, when Nichols made the free throw to tie the game with 21.3 seconds left. Team USA rode the momentum from the fourth quarter where they outscored China 26-15 to seal the victory.
Rebecca Murray (Germantown, Wis.) led the U.S. team in scoring with 30 points followed by Miller with 18 and Rose Hollermann (Elysian, Minn.) with 10.
Team USA will return to the court on Sept. 4 for the quarterfinals.

downcast brown eyes forced me to see I had been thinking only of myself.
I was relieved at the thought of a snow day, even giddy -
many of us, overworked and unappreciated get to feeling that way
this time of year.
But not her, nor her little friends.
Several of them were downright disappointed at the possibility of NOT having school.
What kind of kid doesn't LOVE a snow day?
That would be the kind that sits in my room
looking at me expectantly for the next big thing...
prime numbers, possessives, paragraphs,
and PEMDAS.
Niña, I think to myself, I need this day.
Maestra, she says with her eyes, I need you more.

SPOILERS: Dan Stevens talks about Downtown season 3 finale
NEW YORK (AP) — "Downton Abbey" fans were devastated when Matthew Crawley made his dramatic exit from the series at the end of the show's third season. The actor who played him, however, is less emotional about the plot point.
"It's nice that people care, I suppose, about the show, but yeah, you know … I had to do what I had to do," Dan Stevens said Thursday while attending a New York reception to launch a two-day pop-up showcase to promote British tourism.
He does, however, recognize the phenomenon the show has become, airing in countries across the globe.
"It's a show that means a lot to a lot of people, and, you know, we've obviously gone into a lot of homes on a Sunday night, so people feel very close to the show, which is great," Stevens said.
On "Downton," the relationship between Crawley and Michelle Dockery's Lady Mary was a central story line.
Stevens left the show to pursue other opportunities, which have opened up for him. He recently starred in "The Heiress" on Broadway with Jessica Chastain and shot a role in an upcoming film about the founder of WikiLeaks with fellow British actor Benedict Cumberbatch.
Stevens is now filming a movie in Brooklyn with Liam Neeson called "A Walk Among the Tombstones." That part has required the 30-year-old to trim down a bit and darken his hair. When he was first spotted publicly last weekend at the GLAAD Awards sporting the new look, photos quickly spread online with chatter about the change.
Stevens seemed especially surprised — if not confused — by the interest in his appearance.
"Really? OK, I suppose," he said. "There's so much else going on in the world."
He was more interested in encouraging people to visit his homeland.
"It's a great country. There's all sorts to offer. …There's culture, music, art, food," he said. "The food is much better than it used to be, and the weather is getting better, too! "

WinField's R7 Tool Zeroes In On Hi-Res Imagery
WinField's R7 Tool Zeroes In On Hi-Res Imagery
In the midst of a busy growing season, farmers need immediate information about crop conditions across their fields. Now, the R7 Tool by WinField has even greater satellite imagery and mapping capabilities, allowing farmers to swiftly detect in-season issues with nutrient deficiencies, pests or disease to help protect yield potential.
Powered by GEOSYS technology, the R7 Tool is newly enhanced to provide imagery from three times the number of satellite imagery providers it had in 2013, targeting to deliver approximately 3,000 images (up from approximately 700 last year) and up to 20 cloud-free maps per field from April through August (versus an average of 12 maps per field in 2013.) Cloud-free maps are targeted to be delivered through the R7 Tool within 72 hours of satellite acquisition.
An interactive, web-based platform that performs detailed field-by-field analysis, the R7® Tool is the industry's only provider of on-demand, in-season satellite imagery. This bird's-eye view helps farmers identify emerging crop nutrition and agronomic problems, giving them and their local agronomists the best opportunity to find potential solutions that could help optimize return on investment.
"By working with a specially trained agronomy expert, farmers can use the R7® Tool to get the information they need to detect crop nutrition, disease and pest issues, which allows them to correct factors that could limit crop performance and compromise yield potential," said Dave Gebhardt, director of agronomic data and technology, WinField. "The cutting-edge technology provided by the enhanced R7 Tool empowers farmers to make informed, data-driven agronomic decisions during the season to help them get the most out of every acre at harvest."

Hi ,
Great project with a great write up.
Im based in the uk. Ive also got a pearl white b4Q saloon running the later 40v 4.2 v8 from a c5 s6. Ive picked it up as a part running project and been trawling the US forums for info as there is very little on this conversion over here.
Everything is up and running. It goes ( quickly) and stops but the conversion is very agricultural. My plan is to make it as factory as possible.
Interesting info on the cooling. Mine has mix mash of pipework and using the stock 2.6 rad with 3 slimline fans with a separate two stage controller running two of the fans. However the in dash gauge is showing 121deg constant. Need to get it plugged into vcds and get a true reading. Power steering groans like hell. Ive tried 2 different dual vane v6 pump but the droan is still there. Will look at converting to vacuum brakes / steering and try to use the s6 pump.
Also has a miss when hot on WOT, think this might be a failing coilpack. Again need to have a look on vcds
Sorry for the hijack. Will keep following this and see how you get on
All the best

Trek's full line of 2013 road bikes
New machines start at £550/$859
Trek recently launched the new Domane and new Madone, but both of those debuts concentrated on the range-topping halo versions. At Trek World in Frankfurt, Germany, we took a look at Trek's full range of new road models.
Trek 1.1
The base model of Trek's range now features the same H2 fit — the 'everyman geometry' — as available on all of Trek's higher end road machines. The base model price of £550/$859 has an 8-speed drivetrain from Shimano's basic but usable 2300 group with finishing kit and wheels from Bontrager.
Trek 1.2 and 1.5
Trek's entry-level aluminium 1 series gets a new 100 series aluminium frame for 2013, shedding a little weight over last year's model, and now uses the same H2 geometry found throughout Trek's range. The 1.2 gains some spec upgrades. Out back Shimano now provide the latest Sora rear mech, the seatpost is upgraded to a Bontrager Race aluminum post, and up front a new Carbon fork is fitted. The 1.2 will retail for £700/$1,090 and in compact 50/34 and triple 50/39/30 options. The 1.5 shares the frame platform but for the extra £150/$235 it gains a Shimano Tiagra 10-speed drivetrain in compact and triple options. Both bikes are compatible with mudguards and a rear rack, making them decent options for commuters or winter trainers.
Trek Madone 2.3
Coming in at a competitive £1,150/$1,795, the 200 series Aluminium Madone incorporates the KVF Kamm tail design of the new flagship carbon race bike and the new E2 head tube with its larger 1.5in bottom race. Driving the bike is a compact equipped Shimano 105 groupset. Like its carbon bigger brothers, the aluminium frame features hidden mudguard mounts and significant upgrades over the previous 2 series Madones, includes a tubeless-ready wheelset and carbon seatpost.
The aluminium 2.3 frame gets a complete revamp with the aero KVF design found on the top of the range Madone 7
Trek Madone 4.5 and 4.9
The 4 series frame gained a better grade of carbon and a new BB90 bottom bracket to lower frame weight down to 1,100g (for the 4.5 at £2,000/$3,123 that's pretty impressive). Other significant upgrades include a tubeless-ready wheelset and a carbon post for the 4.5.
If Di2 is what you're looking for in your next bike, the Madone 4.9 at £2,600/$4,060 looks like a great option. The bike still features tubeless-ready wheels and a carbon post. The only downgrades to hit the competitive price point are the non-Shimano brakes and a non-series Shimano R565 crankset.
Trek Madone 5.2
The KVF aero design as found on Trek's pro-level bikes has been rolled out on the new 5 series models too. Built with Treks 500 series OCLV carbon, it's heavier than the top-flight machines, but brings the aero-tech to a much more affordable price point.
It retains all of the design features such as internal cable routing, DuoTrap compatibility (for Ant+ speed and cadence sensors), and the carbon seat mast cap. The complete bike features an Ultegra drivetrain with an compact chainset, Bontrager's Speed Limit integrated brakes and Bontrager's Race tubeless-ready wheels. The 5.2 is also available in a WSD (women's specific version) and retails at £3,000/$4,685.
Domane 6.2 and 6.9
The Domane with its unique rear decoupler design has already proven itself under Fabian Cancellara. To get a standard bike close to his, you'll need to look at the range-topping 6.9 with an 11-speed Dura-Ace drivetrain, Bontrager's lightweight Race X Lite tubeless wheelset, and a Bontrager cockpit that includes the new carbon IsoZonebar. An equivalent WSD model is also available. Pricing will vary depending on final finish as the 6 series Domane's fall under the Project One custom banner.
The 6.2 shares the same frame, but comes with an Ultegra drivetrain, the aluminium version of the IsoZone bar and Race Lite tubeless wheels.
Domane 5.9 and 5.9 WSD
At £3,700/$5,779 with a full Shimano Ultegra Di2 drivetrain and tubeless wheels, the 5.9 Domane looks like a star for 2013. We do like the murder black finish and neat Di2 integration. The 500 series carbon frame uses fully internal cable routing keeping things looking clean, a BB90 bottom bracket and DuoTrap compatibility keeping the clean lines and slick looks.
Domane 4
The Domane gets into OCLV carbon starting with the £1,500/$2,342 4.0. The clever frame is finished with a Tiagra drivetrain, aluminium Bontrager parts and wheelset. The component spec may be a little on the low side for some, but that's offset by a frameset with a great deal of tech and if the range topping Domane we have on test a massively impressive ride too. Female riders wanting the comfort of the decoupler will have to step up to the £1,800/$2,811 4.3 model though the extra £300/$469 means an upgraded 105 drivetrain. The 4 series family tops out with the £2,100/$3,279 4.5 with significantly an Ultegra drivetrain and the new Tubeless compatibe Bontrager Race wheelset.
Domane 2.0 and 2.3
We were intrigued by the 2 series Domane. We tested the all-carbon Domane and were impressed with how active and comfortable the decoupler hindquarters are. The 2 Series uses the same system in an aluminium frame. Trek's engineers assured us that the action and feel is the same, with just a little less travel. The base model 2.0 hits the magical £1,000/$1,561 price point with a Tiagra 10-speed drivetrain. The upgraded 2.3 gets a 105 mix and carbon seatpost for £1,200/$1,874.

I found this blog bit I wrote back when we were pregnant with Baby Love. It is fun to hear my expectant voice come through and made me start the thought process of decorations and conversions to the room for this next kidlet. Enjoy it in all of it's rawness!
"We were just notified that the apartment we wanted is ours. Which means that we will now have an actual nursery, no more baby in the pantry! The room is actually a little larger than our current bedroom and has wonderful natural light. The theme, after much thought, will be world travel and Tintin. We have collected some beautiful vintage maps and atlas' over the years and we plan on framing them. There will be a dark brown accent wall to help the old world colors of the old maps stand out better. We have a nice dark blue rug and will work with dark blue, orange and all shades of brown in the room. These colors are also dominate in the comics, so it will be a nice tie in to a "theme" that can grow with him as he gets older.
Tintin is a vintage comic from the thirties that Kevin loved as a young boy. In addition the original language of the comics is in French, which will allow Abbey to dust that part of her brain off a bit and promote baby boys language development. In the comics Tintin is journalist/detective who travels the world fighting pirates, flying vintage planes and uncovering evil plots. We have been on the hunt for these vintage comics in English and have been able to procure a nice little lot to start his library of adventure stories. It is great that there is the flight element in many of the stories as it will be a fun topic for his Grandpa Haffner to tell him more about! We have included some images of Tintin for your viewing pleasure."

In response to Brian Gray's ("How much will tapping reserves cost U.S.?") letter of last week, I noted that he has used the old liberal trick of immediately going off-point when a question arises for which he has no answer. Like many libs, Gray dances around the issues like he has just been sprinkled with pixie dust.
The entire point of the first 12 paragraphs of my letter is that Obama is not telling the truth about the nation's oil reserves. The president states that we have only 2 percent of the world's proven oil reserves.

MARKET WATCH: Debt and demand worries undercut energy prices
Energy prices generally fell July 27, wiping out small gains from the previous session, with crude oil dropping 2.2% in the New York market on continued concern over the debt limit stalemate and a bearish government report on US oil inventories.
Sam Fletcher
OGJ Senior Writer
HOUSTON, July 28 -- Energy prices generally fell July 27, wiping out small gains from the previous session, with crude oil dropping 2.2% in the New York market on continued concern over the debt limit stalemate and a bearish government report on US oil inventories.
"The markets were slammed yesterday," said analysts in the Houston office of Raymond James & Associates Inc. The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell more than 2%. Natural gas dropped 1.2%, pressured by milder weather. Both oil and gas prices were relatively flat in early trading July 28.
Leon Westgate at Standard New York Securities Inc., the Standard Bank Group, reported, "Crude oil has continued to track the dollar in recent days, with both West Texas Intermediate and Brent coming under pressure yesterday and again this morning."
Olivier Jakob at Petromatrix in Zug, Switzerland, ticked off a list of economic problems including lack of agreement on US debt and release of the Federal Reserve System's latest Current Economic Conditions Report (the "Beige Book") of anecdotal information on economic conditions. The latest report shows "the soft patch is not coming to an end, while US durable goods orders for June came out much worse than expected and does not bode well for the second quarter gross domestic product numbers" to be published July 29, he said. "Investors are starting to take some risk off the table as the deadline on the US debt extension comes closer; the S&P 500 lost a significant 2.02% yesterday and this while the dollar index was regaining the losses of the previous day."
Jakob warned, "Don't count on Europe to offset any disappointment in the US economic recovery. Cyprus is now next on the list of countries that are likely to require a bail-out. Not a big economy but another of the European dominoes that will need to come on the books of the French-German union. Meanwhile, the [United Nations'] International Monetary Fund is warning France about its budget deficit, and French unemployment jumped in June much more than expected, increasing by 1.3% from May…which already had seen an increase. Equities and commodities are close to record highs, pricing the mother-of-all-economic-recoveries but the macroeconomic data points are still very fragile and the investment appetite poor."
Tropical storm
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Don is "quickly rising in the ranks" of potential market concerns, said Raymond James analysts. Don, the fourth named storm of the current Atlantic hurricane season, formed July 27 off Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. Offshore operators are already evacuating nonessential crew from rigs and platforms in the US sector of the gulf, but production is not shut in yet. "Gulf Coast refiners are likely keeping their eyes on the storm as well. We note that natural gas prices have yet to blink, while crude is taking the opposite approach (dollar-driven)," Raymond James reported.
"As of now the calculated path [of the storm] should be more of a concern for refining assets than for oil-producing platforms," Jakob said.
AccuWeather.com earlier warned Gulf Coast motorists, "If you want to be safe, fill up now," alluding to a possible spike in retail gasoline prices rather than any need yet for evacuation. "As evidenced in the past, temporary spikes in [gasoline] prices do coincide with tropical systems moving through the Gulf of Mexico," weather analysts said.
Don is expected to make landfall over Texas late July 29. "It will probably be a tropical storm, but it is very possible the system could develop into a minimal hurricane," said AccuWeather.com Tropical Expert Dan Kottlowski. Its early path would take it south of Corpus Christi, and only a few offshore facilities would be affected. However, Kottlowski expressed concern the storm could track farther north along the Texas coast where there is a higher concentration of refineries and offshore platforms.
US inventories
The Energy Information Administration earlier said commercial US crude inventories increased 2.3 million bbl to 354 million bbl in the week ended July 22, the reverse of the Wall Street consensus for a 2 million bbl draw. Gasoline stocks rose 1 million bbl to 213.5 million bbl, outstripping analysts' expectations of a 400,000 bbl build. Both finished gasoline and blending components increased during the week. Distillate fuel inventories jumped by 3.4 million bbl to 151.8 million bbl in that period, more than double market projections of a 1.6 million bbl gain (OGJ Online, July 27, 2011).
EIA reported July 28 the injection of 43 bcf of natural gas into US underground storage last week, above analysts' consensus for 36 bcf input. That brought working gas in storage to 2.71 tcf, down 201 bcf from the comparable period last year and 65 bcf below the 5-year average.
Raymond James analysts attributed the build of crude inventories to the release of 2.3 million bbl from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve earlier in the week. "Demand also posted bearish numbers as total petroleum demand fell 2.3% sequentially and is down 2.2% year-over-year on a 4-week moving average basis," they said. A drop in the New York market's 3-2-1 crack spread coincided with a decline in refinery utilization to 88.3% last week from its high of 90.3% the previous week. "While macro factors (debt ceiling and stronger dollar) continued to be in the driver's seat for crude prices yesterday, the large build in inventories certainly did not help as crude ended the day down," the analysts said.
The EIA report showed "a total stock build of 11.4 million bbl, which is not a small amount (1.6 million b/d), of which only 2.3 million bbl was coming from SPR," Jakob observed. "So far in July and excluding the 2.3 million bbl from SPR, the US has built 19.5 million bbl or 900,000 b/d. This has to be put in the context of the International Energy Agency (IEA) in Paris that was calling for a world stock draw of 1.3 million b/d in the third quarter. If the US is building at a rate of 900,000 b/d, then it would mean that the rest of the world is drawing at a rate of 2.2 million b/d or that the IEA is wrong in its estimate of supply and demand in the third quarter. We think it is the later rather than the former."
Jakob also pointed out, "Total implied oil demand on the 4-week average is down 3.24% vs. last year, and as importantly it is trending down. The total US implied oil demand on the 4-week average is at par to the levels of 2009…. For the week, total US oil demand is down 1.2 million b/d vs. a year ago and 300,000 b/d lower than in 2009. For the same week, US oil demand is at the lowest level since 1998."
He reported, "Implied demand for clean petroleum products (CPP) is down on the 4-week average by 3% vs. last year. It is outside of the norm to see a declining trend at this stage of the season." He said total stocks of crude and CPP were up 6.7 million bbl during the week and at par to 2009 levels "before accounting for the SPR barrels."
There were 4.5 million bbl of SPR crude scheduled for release July 17-23. The cut-off date for the latest EIA report was July 22 and showed only 2.2 million bbl of transfers. "With 2.3 million bbl still to be transferred on July 23 and 4.2 million bbl scheduled July 24-31, there should be a large layer of SPR crude oil showing up in the next report," Jakob surmised.
He said low refinery utilization rates on the US Gulf were not helping make room for SPR barrels to be released in the next few weeks, but refinery runs remain at high levels in the Midwest to capitalize on the WTI margins, and this is helping to reduce some of the crude oil stocks in the Midwest except in Cushing, Okla.
Meanwhile, Jakob said, "The price of regular gasoline at the pump is back to flirting with $4/gal on the East Coast, hence the drop in sales vs. last year while unemployment is still historically very high should not be a great surprise. The gasoline stocks are in the range of previous years. Gasoline stocks are lower than a year ago, but given that implied demand for gasoline is 3.3% lower than a year ago, the days-of-cover are at par to the levels of last year and at the highest levels since 2002."
Jakob reported, "Overall, in the US, implied demand for petroleum products is turning to the worse, which cannot be a great surprise since both prices at the pump and unemployment are not coming down. Refineries are still running but due to the slow demand the product production is going to stocks. The slowdown of demand comes at a time when US refiners are receiving large layers of SPR crude oil barrels, and this should translate into a continued stock build (be it in crude oil or in products) while a lot of hype had been created about 'huge stock draws to come in the third quarter.' Oil prices do not really need to move higher than current levels to cap demand. Despite the builds in the US Gulf and the SPR barrels that still need to be delivered, the Brent premium to WTI is widening further and the Light Louisiana Sweet premium to WTI increasing to what we think are record high levels."
Energy prices

Church Guy needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 87 designs submitted by 43 freelance designers.
We want to give a "refresh to our logo". (link to current logo is in contest "description"). We definitely want to (1) keep a cross on the logo, (2) keep "newhope" as one word, (3) use lowercase letters, (4) have "hope" be in a bold font. We're open to colors, but we want something that works well both over white or over a background color. You can try both with "church" as a second word, but it doesn't have to be there.
newhope church
Our original logo:
You can use this to see where we are now, but it doesn't need to be like that one. After the logo redesign, we'll be starting a web site redesign contest (so stay tuned). The current web site is:
One idea would be to try including a creek or river in the logo, as the "New Hope River" is a nearby attraction.
- logo redesign
- colors: open
- newhope as one word
- hope is in bold
- lowercase
- cool
- capital letters of rainbows

The Centers for Disease Control has a bunch of maps that illustrate the dramatic rise in obesity in United States over the last 25 years.
What's shocking is that in 1990 no state had obesity levels greater than 15 percent. By 2010, no state had obesity levels less than 20 percent.
Click here to see the maps >
The progression is interesting to look at in light of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's recent proposal to ban over-sized sodas in an effort to curb obesity.
Although the initiative has been labeled shortsighted by groups who argue that sugar is in soft drinks is not the culprit of America's obesity problem, it's hard ignore the fact there's a link between growing portion sizes and growing waistlines.
According to CDC, the average soda, now 42 ounces, is six times bigger than the 7 ounces it was 60 years ago.
Correlation doesn't necessarily mean causation, but an easy argument could be made that food and beverage choices impact lifestyle choices.
On these maps, red shows shows states with obesity levels of 30 percent or more.

Is been a lazy sunday, not much to do in the morning. Since my husband got to work today, so no shopping or a nice relax breakfast at the cafe we like...:(...Well, seems like baking and cooking will occupied my time..:)
Just a quick and easy cake for me and my daughter later....hmm...how easy was it? Okay, its just beat, spoon and steam! Sounds easy ha!! Here it goes.....
Got this recipe fr my favourite book again, 'Bake with Yen'...
Its kind of a traditional cup cake, like those Chinese used for praying or to celebrate Chinese New Year. You know those "fatt gao", well, its something like that. But this is alitte different in the filling and slightly changes in the texture.
Note that the sugar shouldn't be reduce here, it might cause the fluffy texture you want.
As you can see in my pictures here, it suppose to be more fluffy after steaming, this was because i reduced the sugar and the cake doesn't has enough sweetness.
So don't worry about the sugar amount here, its just nice!
Ingedients for filling:
100g Gula melaka
30g Fine sugar
60ml Water
150g Grated coconut
1/2 tsp Cornflour (diluted in alittle water)
Few pandan leaves
~ Boil water, gula melaka, sugar and pandan leaves until all sugar melted properly
~ Add in grated coconut and mix well.
~ Add in the cornflour mixture and stir well, off fire. Cool aside.
Ingredients for the cake:
3 Cold eggs (size A)
250g fine granulated sugar
280g Cake flour
2 tsps Baking powder
1 tsp Ovallete
170g Coconut milk
1tsp Pandan paste
** Some half glaced cherries for deco.
~ Beat all ingredients together for 6-7 minutes on high speed until fluffy.
( Texture should be fluffy and sticky)
~ Line small round aluminium containers (i used egg tarts mould) with paper cups and spoon batter until half full.
~ Place some filling then cover the filling with some batter and top with half glaced cherry.
~ Steam on high heat for 15 minutes.
~ After steamed, transfer to the wire rack immediately to cool. (without the aluminium mould)
See the texture here....its soft and flavourable when bite together with the coconut filling. Do have a try, its really good...:) Cheers!

A quick glance at the schedule for the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association (IHRSA) conference and trade show last week confirmed what most of us already know: Social media is a big deal in our industry. It was the subject of six sessions and one of the keynote speeches at the show, but there still seems to be disagreement about how health clubs can really benefit from using sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
One pervasive view is that health clubs need to use Facebook to reach Millennials, people born in the early 1980s up to the early 2000s. Since traditional advertising methods go unnoticed by this group, targeting them through social media has become necessary.
"Like it or not, we have to talk to Bieber," Philip Coady, president of Motionsoft, said during a session about using social media referrals to generate revenue. Coady was referring to Justin Beiber, of course.
But how does the social media strategy change if your facility isn't courting floppy-haired teen heartthrobs (or any other Millennials), and is instead trying to reach the fitness industry's other growing group, baby boomers? An audience member posed this question, saying that his club was more geared toward members over 45. Coady and Mike Manning, former CEO of The Rush Fitness Complex, Knoxville, TN, pointed out that Millennials will not be young forever, and making them aware of brands targeting older clientele cannot hurt, even if it might not help for another decade.
They also noted that people of all ages are joining social networking sites, so even though Facebook campaigns are more effective at targeting younger people, they can still benefit clubs that are looking for older members. (In fact, 40- to 50-year-olds make up Facebook's fastest-growing demographic.)
The potential impact of social networks was also the topic of Nicholas Christakis's keynote speech. Christakis, an author and Harvard professor, studied real life and online social networks. He found that in person, everything from obesity to emotions to drinking habits seem to be contagious among friends, but online friends are not nearly as influential.
Christakis said the effect Facebook friends have on a person is weak to non-existent, disheartening news for an industry that has spent considerable energy trying to figure out how to best take advantage of Facebook users and their friends, especially through referral campaigns designed to capitalize on the influence friends have on each other.
Confused about how health clubs should proceed? So was I, despite being a member of the technology-dependent Millennial generation that social media strategies are trying to target. But there is a silver lining in the form of a few social media strategies and benefits that experts seem to agree on.
Facebook and Twitter are still crucial as branding tools because they allow you to share information about your facility or company, including news, programming and special offers, with personality. Christakis said that Facebook is most effective as a way to share information, so take advantage.
Social media sites also provide clubs with an easy way to keep track of what people are saying about their facilities and publicize positive feedback or directly address complaints.
Do not overlook the fact that social media is really just another way to be social and engage members. Ask questions and respond to posts. Share health and fitness articles you think members might benefit from reading. Use it to congratulate members on their accomplishments.
There are still many mixed messages when it comes to social media in our industry, but building better relationships with members is one way to use Facebook that we can all "like."

Well, that was exhausting
A Brian Tallet no-hitter into the seventh. Then Cleveland knocks him around and takes the lead. Then the Jays come back. Then they're a strike away from a win, only to have Jesse Barfield's stupid kid come around and score. Then the give up two more runs, only to come back and tie it in the ninth. And then stupid Shawn Camp gives up the winning runs, though the Jays make a game of it in the bottom of the 12th.
And to think that we just wanted to relax and unwind last night. By the end of the game, we were spent after spending a couple of hours rocking back and forth on the edge of our seat.
If you need to find the bright spot in last night's loss, it is that this year's Blue Jays don't have much quit in them. Over the past couple of years, the Jays would generally roll over on their backs and let the opposition rub their bellies when they fell behind. This year, you always have a sense that they'll scrape their way back into the game somehow.
Not just another Major League debut
Brett Cecil becomes the third Blue Jays starting pitcher to make his big league debut this season when he takes the mound at 12:37 this afternoon. Cecil has been knocked around at Las Vegas so far this year (0-3, 8.31 ERA, 9 Ks and 8 BBs and a 1.73 WHIP in four starts), although he pitched well in his last start (six innings, three runs, four hits, five Ks and a walk in six innings versus Sacramento).
At this point, Cecil is just being asked to be an arm and to hold the fort (gotta stop using that term) in the short term, so we should probably not lose our heads over today's start. But who's kidding who? We're going to totally lose our minds this afternoon.
Wilner also gets the call
Speaking of getting guys getting the call to fill in, JaysTalk host Mike Wilner will share the play-by-play duties this afternoon with Jerry Howarth on the radiocast. Howarth's usual partner, Alan Ashby, took some time to hang with his family unit in L.A., so Mike on the Mic stepped into the booth and did very nice work in his handful of innings last night.

All this extra scrappyness can be attributed to David Eckstein. He is gone but, clearly, not forgotten.
Cecil time!

I need a hug after last night......but I will settle for Cecil being amazing today.
- May 5, 2009 at 10:49 AM
The game showed the Jays comeback ability BUT the Jays couldn't take advantage of Tallet's almost no hitter. That loss stung, primarily because that game could've gone the Jays way.That was a very tough loss, bringing up shades of last year's problems with extra inning games at home. As for Cecil, they should have brought up Castro instead. Cecil is too raw yet. The Jays lost yesterday and can't afford a sweep. The Red Sox are coming on, so Cecil better pitch well. In the end, this is all on JP, there were other pitchers to bring up, let's not see a blowout today in the wrong direction.

Castro might have made sense, but the call ups seemed to have as much to do with keeping guys on their regular schedule.
We shall see what happens.

I'm a little confused as to Cito's reluctance - dating back to when he re-claimed his rightful position on the managing throne - to use Brian Wolfe in any capacity whatsoever. Maybe it's selective memory on my part, but he's always seemed to be a reliable reliever during his big-league tenure for the Jays. His only real blackmark was not plunking the next hitter (was it that greaseball Giambi?)after the A-Rod "HA!/MINE" incident.
Cecil: 6IP-5H-3R-3BB-6K.

- Stedron said...
Ack - That is far too reasonable a prediction. What are you trying to do? Be right instead of being a fan?
- May 5, 2009 at 11:44 AM
I can't see how Cecil is more raw than Castro, one year older is not much of a difference. The Jays lost last night because they can't have unlimited innings from Downs and Carlson. That loss was bought and paid for by the Orioles.
The Jays can afford a sweep, but I'd hate to see it. You can not write off a season if they're sitting at 18-11 tomorrow. If this game gets turned over to the bullpens before the 8th inning the Jays win. Those shitbags in the Cleveland bullpen were heroic last night only giving up 3 runs.
@Ack - If the tipping pitches thing is true I'm sure there are plenty of pitchers who will make up for Wolfe's oversight in this matter. I suspect there will be a few fastballs aimed at the Medulla-Oblongata when ol' bitch-tits comes back.

Matt, I think you just Voodoo-Whammy'd A-Rod. Excellent work.

PARIS — A French court has ordered DVD vendors to pull copies of the David Lynch film "Mulholland Drive" off store shelves as part of an unprecedented ruling against copy prevention techniques.
The appeals court ruled Friday that copy prevention software on the DVD violated privacy rights in the case of one consumer who had tried to transfer the film onto a video cassette for personal use.
The ruling could be a major setback for the DVD industry, which places lock software on disks as part of its battle against piracy. The industry blames illegal copying for millions of dollars in lost revenues each year.
"This ruling means that 80 percent of DVDs now on the French market are equipped with illegal mechanisms," said Julien Dourgnon, spokesman for consumer advocacy group UFC-Que Choisir, which brought the case.
"Stores will probably not have to send back products already in stock," Dourgnon said Tuesday. "But in the future, no DVD or CD that has the device can be sold."
France, along with other European Union members including Germany and Spain, has laws guaranteeing the right of consumers to copy recordings they have purchased for private use.
Lionel Thoumyre, a lawyer for the artist rights group Spedidam, said the ruling sets a new precedent in the European Union, where intellectual property laws are nearly identical among member states.
"This is brand new," he said. "I think this is the first judgment in Europe going in this direction."
The consumer group filed the suit on behalf of a man who bought the "Mulholland Drive" DVD and then wanted to copy the movie onto a videocassette so he could show the film at his mother's home.
The ruling overturned a lower court's decision in favor of the defendants, co-producers Alain Sarde Films and Studio Canal and distributor Universal. The suit was filed in 2003.
The defendants also were found guilty of violating French consumer protection laws, which state that a vendor must notify consumers of a product's essential characteristics.
The only notification of the copy prevention software on the DVD in this case were the letters "CP," short for "copying prohibited," in small print on the cover, a warning that the court found insufficient.

OXFORD, Miss. — Mississippi basketball player Marshall Henderson, suspended indefinitely on Wednesday, was found by police with both marijuana and cocaine, according to a report.
The Wall Street Journal broke the news: While stopped on suspicion of speeding May 4, Henderson gave an officer a small bag containing marijuana. A police dog turned up a separate bag containing a small amount of cocaine.
The amount of cocaine was less than one-tenth of a gram, not enough to prosecute. Henderson was cited for lack of proof of liability insurance.
CHRIS HERREN: Henderson receives advice
HENDERSON: His thoughts on suspension
Oxford police chief Joey East did not confirm the details of the incident but said his officers never booked Henderson.
"Marshall Henderson was very cooperative, and that's why just the citation was issued," East said.
TWITTER BEEF: Erin Andrews takes on Henderson
MORE: What's next for Henderson?
Henderson led the Southeastern Conference by averaging 20.1 points a game and helped the Rebels win the SEC tournament and reach the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2002.
In a statement Wednesday, Mississippi head coach Andy Kennedy said, "Since the season ended, we have talked a lot about Marshall taking a greater leadership role with our team. With that comes greater responsibility, and he must do a better job of living up to the high standards we expect from him and he desires from himself."
Hugh Kellenberger writes for The Clarion-Ledger in Jackson, Miss., a Gannett affiliate.
