Mf. 1195 -- Ruskin Cooperative Association Records, 1896-1963. 125 items. TSLA. 1 reel. 16 mm.
Mf. 1196 -- Jill Knight Garrett Collection, 1800-1969. 70 vols. 800 items. TSLA. 5 reels. 16 mm.
A valuable part of the collection is the wealth of Civil War material. There are a number of transcribed diaries and memoirs of men who served in the Confederate Army from the river counties as well as a diary of a young girl, Rowena Webster; abstracts from wartime Nashville and other Middle Tennessee newspapers about soldier and civilian deaths; and a two-volume manuscript on partisan warfare entitled "Guerillas and Bushwhackers in Middle Tennessee During the Civil War." It also includes unpublished manuscripts reflecting Mrs. Garrett's research on early Maury County history, guerrillas and bushwhackers in Civil War-era Middle Tennessee, the Ku Klux Klan activities in Maury County, and Lauderdale County, Alabama.
Mf. 1197 -- John Sumner Russwurm Papers, 1786-1914. 900 items. TSLA. 2 reels. 35 mm.
A large part of the collection is Russwurm's incoming correspondence, concerning business matters, land in the frontier regions of Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri and California, and Whig politics. Among the correspondents are John Bell, Newton Cannon, Robert Looney Caruthers, and Ephraim Hubbard Foster. Russwurm was also related to the Blounts of North Carolina and Tennessee, and to Revolutionary War general Jethro Sumner, and many letters detail the concerns of the North Carolina cousins.
A particular strength of this collection is the extraordinary attention given to the issues of slave-owning, emancipation, conditions in the freed slave colony of Liberia, and the career of one remarkable mulatto cousin of Russwurm's, John Brown Russwurm. He became one of the first Negro graduates of an American college (Bowdoin College, 1826), and emigrated to Liberia to become that country's first superintendent of public schools and, eventually, its first black governor. The Russwurm papers are rich in source material on the African-American experience. The register available includes a name index to correspondence.
Mf. 1198 -- Stickley Collection, 1800-1946. 5 vols. 8700 items. TSLA. 9 reels (first 5 are 16 mm. and last 3 are 35 mm.)
Most the genealogical material is copied from courthouse, military, and cemetery records. Genealogical data is given on the following families, among many others: Bogart, Doyle, Heironimous, Jansen, Lincoln, Patterson, Powell, Range, Rapjele, Reneau, Sevier, Sims, Stickley, Tipton, Van Arsdale, Washington, Wilson, Wright, and Wyckoff. The information is concentrated in Somerset County, NJ; Greene, Jefferson, and Knox counties, TN; and Frederick and Prince William counties, VA. This material is generally arranged by surname, state and county, and by its source in books and periodicals.
Mf. 1199 -- Cordell Hull Papers, 1901-1932. 750 items. TSLA. 1 reel. 16 mm.
Most of the collection consists of Hull's incoming correspondence, primarily concentrated during the period 1921-32. During this period, Hull was one of the Democratic Party's foremost spokesmen in Congress as well as in the party's inner circles. Other items include typescripts of six speeches on a range of topics, Hull's Congressional voting record, and some of his writings on the 1928 election.
The correspondence reveals Hull 's ideas about state and national politicians and his tireless work as a party whip in election campaigns. He was active as a party manager in the elections of 1928 and 1932, the latter a landslide victory for which Hull was rewarded by Roosevelt with a cabinet position. As Secretary of State, Hull was an architect of American foreign policy in the period leading up to and including the World War II. The register includes a name index to correspondence.

Car charging stations multiply
BETHEL -- As part of a statewide push to make Connecticut more welcoming to electric vehicles, the second of two charging stations will soon be on the grid in downtown Bethel.
"Our town is looking to the future," said Bethel First Selectman Matt Knickerbocker. "We're doing our part not only to decrease the carbon footprint, but to save people money."
The Metro-North train station on Durant Avenue is already home to the town's first active charging station, which came online last week.
A second charging station, located in the municipal lot behind the former train station downtown, will be completed within two weeks, bringing the state's total online charging station tally to 143, with 52 to be located in Fairfield County and six in Litchfield County.
Danbury has six stations, including three at Western Connecticut State University. There are three in Ridgefield and one in New Milford.
Completion of Bethel's second station was delayed due to work done recently on the nearby Metro-North crossing on Greenwood Avenue.
"They had to wait for Metro-North to finish that whole reconstruction of the intersection to drop in the power line," Knickerbocker said.
The stations come as part of the EVConnecticut program, a partnership between the state Department of Transportation and the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, which has distributed roughly $216,000 in grants.
The money came from a settlement agreement with the state allowing for the merger of Northeast Utilities and NStar.
In April, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy announced that Connecticut is now considered "range confident," meaning drivers of electric vehicles can trust there will be an accessible charging station along their route.
At that time, Malloy said more than 90 percent of state residents now live within 20 miles of a publicly accessible charging station.
To the owner of Bruce Bennett Nissan in Wilton, that makes all the difference.
"Absolutely, it is helping us," Bennett said of the uptick in charging stations. "People want to drive the electric cars, there's no question about it. It's the 100-mile range that has them concerned."
As more and more charging stations pop up across the state -- several of which Bennett has himself brought in to the Danbury area -- consumers' fears of breaking down with a dead battery have subsided while sales of Nissan's Leaf have picked up for Bennett.
"I'm selling three to five a month," he said. "So I'm selling the car."
Bennett said when he first stocked the Leaf in 2011 he had hopes of selling closer to 10 every month. He had heard about dealers in Texas and California selling up to 25 monthly and thought the "green-friendly" population in Fairfield County could at least bring half the business seen in the vehicle's largest markets.
"I was really surprised when that did not happen," he said. "I couldn't give the car away."
But after installing a few stations around the area himself -- notably, one at the Danbury municipal garage and another by the Ridgefield Playhouse -- and seeing the state's EVConnecticut stations pop up as well, the concept started to click.
"They're popping up all over the place right now," Bennett said. "Now I have a lot of interest in the car."
In Bethel, the town used $14,000 of the EVConnecticut grant money to establish two charging stations, each of which can accommodate two vehicles at a time. They have signs limiting parking in the spaces to electric vehicles.
The town purchased the stations from a Maryland company called SemaConnect. Drivers can connect to the charging stations via a smartphone app that allows them to remotely monitor how much electricity they have purchased and how fully their car is charged.
The charging stations in Bethel will be free for drivers for a while, Knickerbocker said, with the energy paid for by the remainder of grant funding issued to the town. Once that period ends, drivers will pay by credit card.

For a movie that's all about literally going home again, "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" is further proof of just how hard it is to do so figuratively.
After 2003's "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" tied an Oscar record with 11 wins, including best picture, last year's "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" landed with a bit of a critical thud. And despite scoring the biggest opening weekend of the four by far, "Journey's" final box-office haul was the series' lowest yet.
While "Smaug" represents an improvement on "Journey's" often exhausting getting-to-know-you slog through Middle-earth, it still rarely rises above the sort of thing that should temporarily feed the "Hobbit" habit of die-hard fans.
Last seen being carried by giant birds away from the dreaded pale orc Azog the Defiler (Manu Bennett), Bilbo (Martin Freeman), Gandalf (Ian McKellen), Thorin (Richard Armitage) and the rest of his not-so-merry band of dwarves — Fili, Kili, Balin, Dwalin, Oin, Gloin, Dori, Nori, Ori, Bifur, Bofur and Bombur — continue their journey to the Lonely Mountain to reclaim the kingdom of Erebor from the dragon Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch).
If your eyes glazed over during any part of that admittedly long sentence, "Smaug" is most certainly not for you.
Along the way, they encounter Beorn (Mikael Persbrandt), a skin-changer who can turn into a bear. While his appearance feels glossed over, newcomers Bard the Bowman (Luke Evans), who smuggles the gang into Lake-town and provides them shelter and weapons, and the corrupt Master of Lake-town (Stephen Fry) fare better.
Also joining in the action are "Rings" fan favorite Legolas (Orlando Bloom) and his fellow elf warrior Tauriel (Evangeline Lilly), neither of whom appear in the novel.
Director Peter Jackson obviously brought Legolas back to goose the box office, and he's part of "Smaug's" best action piece as he dances atop barrels and the heads of the dwarves as they take a dizzying ride down a rampaging river. It's more fun than 13 barrels of dwarves and feels more akin to Bloom's "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise.
Tauriel was created by the "Smaug" screenwriters — Jackson, Guillermo del Toro and the "Rings" team of Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens — to add a strong female presence, and she fits the bill quite nicely.
Tauriel proves herself to be a skilled fighter while teasing a romance with Kili (Aidan Turner, thankfully given more to do this time around since his "Hobbit"-forced departure from "Being Human" ruined a perfectly good series).
But as much life as Legolas and Tauriel breathe into "Smaug," their presence is problematic. Not only will purists likely scoff at the intrusion, they help push the great Gandalf, whom J.R.R. Tolkien actually included in "The Hobbit," to the side for far too long.
The heart and soul of the trilogy, though, remains Bilbo Baggins, and Freeman is delightful in bringing him to life. Whether he's screwing up his courage to confront the dragon or rushing to save his friends as fast as his big, hairy feet can carry him, Freeman expertly captures Bilbo's transformation from homebody to hero.
And "Sherlock" fans will relish his interactions with Cumberbatch's Smaug, who's covered in gold and constantly boasting about how great he is like an insecure rapper.
While "Smaug" offers a few silly moments, such as the dwarves having dozens of fish dumped on their heads or being forced to sneak into Bard's home via the toilet, it's an overall darker tale than "Journey," full of decapitations and plenty of arrows to the heads of various orcs.
And unlike the "Rings" films, each of which told its novel's tale from beginning to end, "Smaug" doesn't really offer a climax. It just sort of stops.
That's part of the larger problem of squeezing more than eight hours of movies out of a roughly 300-page children's book.
"The Hobbit" could have made one really good movie or even two decent ones. Instead, we're two installments into what's shaping up to be a so-so trilogy.
The whole thing's just too much too much.
Middle-earth should never feel this middling.

Date : 4/20/2017
Las Vegas, Nevada

- Dell uses NAB 2017 to showcase a spectrum of technology for media and entertainment from devices to storage
- Dell Precision 5720 All-in-One gives creators UltraSharp 4K touch display, 100% Adobe color and full workstation power with VR capabilities
The Dell UltraSharp 27 4K HDR Monitor (UP2718Q), the company's first HDR10 display with UHD Alliance Premium Certification, boasts an Ultra HD 4K display, with four times more detail than full HD and the depth of 1.07 billion colors. This monitor allows creative professionals to view and edit HDR10 content to create incredibly realistic images. With a peak brightness of 1,000 nits, the UP2718Q produces the deepest blacks and brightest whites and the REC2020 color coverage makes it an ideal choice for video editors working on color-critical post production. The UP2718Q also offers a broad, brilliant color spectrum with Dell PremierColor – 100 percent Adobe RGB, 100 percent sRGB, 100 percent REC 709, 97.7 percent DCI-P3 and 76.9 percent REC2020. For exceptional color reproduction, each monitor is individually factory-calibrated and users can customize the color parameters using the custom color mode, or make adjustments by storing the preferred color parameters onto the internal Look-Up Table using Dell UltraSharp Calibration software with an optional colorimeter.
To provide a full spectrum of displays to meet the needs of customers in media and entertainment, finance, and oil and gas, Dell also is excited to announce the Dell UltraSharp 27 4K Monitor (U2718Q) and Dell UltraSharp 25 Monitor (U2518D), two new monitors from its premium UltraSharp line that feature Dell's innovative InfinityEdge display. With Dell HDR², visuals are true-to-life with stunning color, terrific contrast and great detail. Both monitors allow industry professionals to push the limits of productivity with an edge-to-edge viewing experience and optimized eye comfort with a flicker-free screen featuring ComfortView. Announced to much acclaim earlier this year, the Dell UltraSharp 32 8K Monitor is now available, raising the visual bar even higher for creative professionals.
At NAB, Dell is celebrating the recent availability of the Dell Precision 5720 All-in-One workstation for digital content creators, like video editors, animators, designers and sound engineers. The 5720 features Dell's innovative InfinityEdge display around a beautiful 27-inch 4K 100 percent Adobe color screen. The addition of Jack Joseph Puig Signature Series Audio powered by Waves MaxxAudio® Pro delivers studio-quality production, editing, and play back in one sleek and powerful workstation device. This sets an all new standard of built-in audio visual quality unlike any other all-in-one workstation in the market today.
The Precision 5720 delivers ISV certifications to optimize the hardware for major creative applications and the latest gen, responsive AMD Radeon™ Pro graphics allow it to keep pace with even the most demanding rendering and graphics-intensive tasks. The Xeon® or 7th Gen Intel® Core™ processors, Thunderbolt™ 3 technology and the exclusive Dell Precision Optimizer automatically tunes the workstation to run specific programs at the fastest speeds possible. The Precision 5720 All-in-One joins the Dell's leading lineup of VR-ready solutions and is the first all-in-one workstation to boast VR performance.
"With the emergence of industry-shifting technology, we're at an inflection point for building innovative products that empower creators to do what they do best – create!," said Rahul Tikoo, vice president and general manager, Dell Precision.

That said, in terms of magazine covers, this one is a winner.

The Drapers are heading to Hawaii! Jon Hamm and Jessica Paré were recently spotted filming Mad Men on the idyllic islands.
Mad Men boss: Don Isn't Necessarily Going to Cheat on MeganHamm and Paré, who play Don and Megan Draper, shed their typical conservative wear to show off their smokin' hot beach bods while shooting the Season 6 premiere of the AMC drama. But Don's super-short shorts may not be the biggest surprise. After all, last season ended with a contemplative Don presumably considering his future with Megan after he helped her land a role in a commercial.Although many viewers speculated that Don would cheat on Megan, creator Matthew Weiner suggested otherwise at the time. "I think it's a fleeting glimpse," Weiner said. "I definitely think when you hear that question, 'Are you alone?' it's not just, 'Are you going to start cheating on this woman?' We've seen how faithful he's been."
Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss lightens up With dramatic haircutSo why are Don and Megan in Hawaii? As is typical, details about the new season are in short supply. (Though it appears Don doesn't forego smoking, drinking or heavy reading — Dante's Inferno! — even on the beach.) Is Don doing research for a new tanning-lotion client? Maybe Megan's career is taking off and she's guest-starring on the (original) Hawaii Five-O? Share your theories below!Are you surprised to see Don and Megan together?

charred animal bone
carbon + calcium phosphate
C + Ca3(PO4)2 or C × CaPO4
Ivory Black is a cool, semi-transparent blue-black with a slight brownish undertone and average tinting strength. It mixes well with any color, and creates a range of dull greens when mixed with yellow. It has good properties for use in oil, can be slow to dry in oil form, and should never be used in underpainting or frescoing. Ivory Black is denser than Lamp Black.
Ivory Black is very lightfast and has good permanence, though it is considered the least permanent of the major black pigments.
Ivory Black has no significant hazards.
Ivory Black is a carbon based black first named as Elephantium, and described in the 4th century BCE as produced by heating ivory scraps in clay pots to reduce the ivory or bone to charcoal. The deviation in names is because the more expensive varieties of this pigment were made by burning ivory, and the less expensive ones by burning animal bone. In the 19th century, the name Ivory Black was finally permitted to be applied to Carbon Black pigments made from bone. True Ivory Black is rare in modern times due to the protection of ivory, and the synthetic variety produced today was discovered in 1929. Bone Black is produced as an industrial pigment.
Animal Black, Blue Black, Bone Black. Paris Black is an inferior grade of Ivory Black. Incorrectly labeled as Frankfort Black.
Lamp black is a very opaque, heavily staining black pigment that does not have much covering or tinting power. It is typically the most opaque black in watercolor form. Though a very pure black, it tends to muddy slightly in mixtures. Natural sources may be brownish or bluish in tone because of impurities. When used in oil paints, it is one of the slowest drying pigments, and should not be used in underpainting or applied in layers underneath other colors.
Lamp Black is very lightfast and absolutely permanent. It is used in all techniques in permanent painting.
Carbon itself is not considered hazardous, however other combustion products that are hazardous are often present as impurities when Lamp Black is produced from natural materials. For this reason, commercial preparations of the pigment should be considered slightly toxic. Avoid skin contact and inhalation. Where such impurities are present, Lamp Black is a possible human carcinogen.
Lamp Black is a carbon based black traditionally produced by collecting soot (known as lampblack) from oil lamps. It has been used as a pigment since prehistoric times. It is the black found in Egyptian murals and tomb decorations and was the most popular black for fresco painting until the development of Mars Black.
Carbon Black, Channel Black, Furnace Black, Oil Black, Vegetable Black. Flame Black is an impure version of Lamp Black. An alternate spelling is Lampblack, in which the first syllable is stressed and the two words are elided to form a closed compound.
titanium dioxide
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies give no indiciation that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. Titanium White, if inhaled in large amounts over the course of several years, may cause a benign pneumoconiosis that is visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.

Interesting, I have never seen a document like this.ReplyDelete
You'll have my vote, should you decide to run! This is fascinating. I've never seen this either. Makes me wonder if my parents have one tucked away somewhere.ReplyDelete
Great piece. I was also told that these were used later to stop Social Security registration fraud in some states. As you know many people changed their birth year to become eligible for SS benefits, but there are cases, where these limited birth records, prevented them from doing so.ReplyDelete
Carol - Since it appears that no state or federal agency kept an "official" copy of this form, they are probably fairly rare. I'm wondering if my grandparents thought that was Daddy's BC and didn't get the real one. If they had both, it's odd this is the only one that he still had.
Susan - I've questioned my mother several times and she doesn't remember ever seeing it if she ever had one. Makes me wonder if they weren't actually used all of the time during the life of the form (1924-1940s).
Kathleen - That's interesting.
I've never seen a document like that either. Interesting.ReplyDelete
I'm so glad to see your post on this! I have a few of these "Notification of Birth Registration" forms in my source files and I am puzzling about the correct EE citation format. My best guess is something like an amended birth certificate. What do you think?ReplyDelete
I just realized that I haven't written a source for it at all. I used his official birth certificate as the source for his birth info. Since this "notification" wasn't exactly an official document (neither state or feds kept a record or copy of them), it seems more like a "hospital certificate" than a birth certificate to me. I might lean toward sourcing it as a "Family Artifact."Delete
I also have the first notication of birth registration for my father. I was wodering if it has anything to do with being born on a indian reservation? And this document is prof of birth. This is also the only record he hadDelete
It doesn't appear to have anything to do with Indian reservations. They may well have been issued on reservations at the same time but they weren't limited to them.Delete

Overall, upgrade of most of my/our machines went smoothly. It's during those operations that I re-appreciate the value of our fedora.us policies and the ease of rebuilding that mach brings me.
FC2's kernel has a very sparsely documented feature that seems to be called vdso or linux-gate. Run ldd /bin/bash on an FC2 machine and you'll see it being linked to a "library" called linux-gate.so.1 which isn't a real library, but something the kernel dynamically creates. Took me quite some time to pinpoint this mechanism as the problem for mach to set up chroot's for pre-FC2test3 on post-FC2test3 systems.
Now on to figuring out a way to build kernel modules properly on 2.6.
Here's the thing. In 2.4, you could build out-of-tree kernel modules just by using the kernel source that was preconfigured. Using this, you could make modules for any Red Hat kernel. That means, also for smp, or for i586, and so on.
With 2.6, you need a bunch of generated files specific to your arch/type combination, which is now stored in /lib/modules/(uname -r)/build
So, if you want to build all modules for a given kernel release in one go, you can't. Since the i586 and i686 kernel rpms aren't parallel installable, for example, you need two runs. What's more, apt-get will look at /etc/rpm/platform through rpm to figure out the correct arch to install, and there's no real way I can make apt forcefully install the i586 one on an i686 machine.
So, one solution would be to download the kernel rpms, rpm2cpio them, and extract all the files, and repackage them. Doable. But that would create some huge .src.rpms and some huge end result .rpms.
So I ran a diff on the four directories. It turns out that not that many files are different. So here's what I'm going to do:
- Write a script to unpack all the kernel rpms for a given release
- run a python script on it that tells me which files are the same in all fours, and which files are different in any of them
- make a deeply symlinked forest of all common stuff, and copy the different stuff
- package this forest as a kernel-modules-devel rpm.
A big hack, but a smart one. It took half a day to think about the algorithm. After having written it down, it took another half a day to write the python code until it worked. Running involves a lot of waiting due to the rpm unpacking and list scanning.
Then I went on to actually use these packages. Looking at the stuff in autostars, I was trying to come up with a decent way of integrating 2.6's kbuild system with our autotooled setup.
Since obj-m vars are refused by automake, however, the best I could come up with was a hack that would generate a Makefile.26 for the new system which would be invoked from automake. That would have been kludgey at best.
But Dave to the rescue: he had looked at the same problem lately and had updated but not commited the macros to work with 2.6. Apparently he wrote a small modtool script in analogy with libtool, creating .ko files and necessities in a .mods dir. I was left with just fixing the small issues to make it work on Fedora Core 2, and (as I later found out) merge back all my previously commited fixes which he threw away :)
So, our as-linux stuff, combined with the kernel rpm I made for the symlink forest, managed to build the sample kernel modules fine. Next step - real modules.
The trickiest one to get right was the combination of hostap and ipw2100. The ipw2100 modules need the hostap ones, and build against headers from hostap and needs symbols from hostap. With a few enhancements to as-linux, this worked out fine too. And now I need testers. If you have FC2 and an ipw2100 network card, try these packages. You need hostap and ipw2100. Don't forget to get/update the firmware file in /etc/firmware, you need version 1.1 of the file.
I also tried rebuilding the qc-usb kernel module, but while it loads fine and detects the camera, it doesn't really work. I tried a regular build from the source project too, though, and it had the same results, so it's probably not my fault.
If you have a kernel project that you'd like to see packaged, let me know and if it's something I can test, I'll give it a shot.
I was scared advogato was down for good and had taken my diary entries with me. Over the years I've written quite a few entries and I was hoping to somehow get them back so I can store them for when I go to the old men's home.
When it got back up I wrote a simple script using the xml-rpc python interface. Python is soooo nice for simple stuff like this. If you want to backup your entries, get the script and run it with your username as argument. It will create a directory with that name in your current dir and download each of the entries to a separate .html file.
I've thought about setting up a planet aggregator and wordrpess on our apestaart server to get my friends to blog a little about their life in Belgium. Blogging is a nice unintrusive way of letting others know what you're up to, and reading them is a nice way of knowing how they're doing.
If he was talking about me as well, then he's giving me too much credit. All I'm trying to do is to make sure we can do streaming, and try and tackle the general "Multimedia, Codecs, Patents, Licenses and Distributions" problem. But we're making progress. Interested in what the FSF has to answer to our questions.
I was getting the feeling my favourite cat herder was turning into a prison warden, but he sort of put my mind to rest.

Torrington legend Molly S. Oddo dies at age 100
Torrington >> Molly S. Oddo, former city councilwoman, board of education member, businesswoman and community leader, died on Tuesday.
Oddo, who famously would never reveal her age during her long career in Torrington, would have celebrated her 101st birthday this Sunday.
She was the founder of The Oddo Print Shop, which opened in 1947, but was a huge part of community and civic life in Torrington over many decades. She was elected to the Board of Education in 1965 as a Democrat and later served for a term on the Torrington City Council in the early 1990s.
Over the years, Oddo declined the Democratic Party's efforts to get her to to run for city clerk - because she did not want to challenge her good friend, Fred Bruni - and mayor, because she felt it would conflict with her work at WSNG Radio, where she worked part-time for several decades.
Oddo chaired the United Way's annual fundraising campaign and was active with the Rotary Club of Torrington, the Warner Theatre, Nutmeg Ballet, Torrington Historical Society and other civic and community efforts.
But she was perhaps proudest of the work she did in assisting Monsignor William Botticelli in building St. Peter's Church into a successful parish.
Over the years, Oddo was named "Woman of the Year" by the Litchfield County Business and Professional Women, a Paul Harris Fellow with Rotary, "Outstanding Connecticut Volunteer" by the American Cancer Society" and the Torrington Elks Club's "Citizen of the Year."
Oddo never married or had children and was looked up to as a before-her-time independent woman who started, owned and ran her own business.
"I cannot think of a person who has no regrets and who has accomplished more," Northwest Connecticut Chamber of Commerce President JoAnn Ryan wrote about Oddo on the occasion of her 100th birthday last October. " She is our mentor and has earned our respect and love over her 'short' 100 years."
When the Rotary Club honored Oddo in 2003, Torrington Savings Bank President Jeff Lalonde said that she was "not afraid to take the dissenting position" during her time on the Board of Education, "and not worried about popularity in her decisions."
After graduating from the Torrington Secretarial School, she worked at the Palace Theatre, Howard's Shoes and the Torrington Company.
She was more than just a secretary to Monsignor Botticelli. "Her fund-raising efforts were a large part of the efforts that created the church," said a 2003 article in The Register Citizen.
In accepting her "Woman of the Year" award in 1994, she said that in addition to her mother, Botticelli had the greatest impact on her life.
"He taught me that charity is the key to heaven," she said, "and that is the cornerstone in my personal philosophy."
Oddo was born in Winsted to the late Francis and Salvatrice Oddo, but spent most of her life in Torrington.
She is survived by her brother, Frank, who lived with her for years on Wall Street. Their sister, Mary Oddo Garneau, passed away in February at age 98.

Lust List: 8 BB Creams./
In case you have not heard, BB Creams are all the rage. A BB Cream is hybrid type product that wears like a tinted moisturizer, but offers so much more in the way of ingredients and skin care benefits. I have grown to love a few of the BB Creams that I have tried, but keep reading about more that I really want to keep trying more. I think it's a really great time to discover a favorite BB Cream now too. It makes for a perfect summer-time all-in-one product that covers, heals and protects; all while being lightweight in the heat.
Here is a mix of 8 BB Creams that are bound to be on the top of your must-have list. This list is a mix of my faves and others that are on my list to try.
1. NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer SPF30/PA+++
Though not officially called a BB Cream, I am dubbing it the first French BB Cream. It comes in a beautiful range of forgiving shades, that has me looking more alive than I have in months.
2. Boscia B.B. Cream SPF 27 PA++
When first applying this BB Cream, it feels like a primer, but it looks so much better as it really evens out my skin tone and makes it look more alive. I was initially worried that the shade was a bit too light for my self-tan, but it blended seamlessly into my skin.
3. Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm
This beauty balm is made with 50% water with Dr. Jart's Advanced Water Bead Technology which hydrates and maintains healthy moisture for a dewy, fresh look on the skin all day long. This oil-free formula contains an SPF 25, which is essential.
4. Stila Stay All Day 10-in-1 HD Beauty Balm
This balm makes skin look overall better. My skin looks brighter, wrinkles and lines are diffused, and I really like the anti-aging properties that the formula contains. It looks better than your average tinted moisturizer with it's light feel, and offers a very light coverage. The only downfall of this one is that is does not offer an SPF.
5. 3LAB Perfect BB SPF40 Cream
This BB Cream is packed with a ton of ingredients to not only prime and cover imperfections, this is designed to firm and lift the skin, regenerate new skin cells, brighten, moisturize, and protect. It glides on smooth with a slightly silicone-y feel. Somewhat like a primer, but more like a moisturizer. 3LAB's signature bio-engineered growth hormone and apple stem cell technology is at the heart of this cream, making it a phenomal treatment.
6. Clinique Age Defense BB Cream SPF 30
This instant morning routine gives skin just about everything it needs for a quick start. SPF protection, antioxidants for prevention, plus enough coverage to banish imperfections. This comes in 3 shades. The darkest shade, 03, blends perfectly into my self-tanned skin.
7. Smashbox Camera Ready BB Cream SPF 35
I am hearing rave reviews on this BB Cream and the fact that this one comes in five shades makes me realizing that I need to try this, if only for that fact alone. I have an issue with many of the BB Creams being too light and I know that one of the darker shades will be perfect for me. Camera Ready moisturizes, primes, perfects, controls oil, and protects for flawless skin. Formulated with emollients and optical pearl pigments, this one is said to give skin a glowing, ethereal look and provides a hydrating veil for the complexion to maintain moisture on the surface of the skin.
8. Skin Renew Miracle Skin Perfector B.B. Cream
This drugstore BB Cream is on my must buy list. It is so readily available, and the two color choices look like they would be easy to blend into a wide variety of skin tones. This hybrid formula says that it renews radiance, brightens complexion, evens skin tone, hydrates and protects with SPF15 UVA/UVB sunscreen.

Major League Baseball's home run king will not be going to prison.
Instead, former San Francisco Giant's star Barry Bonds, 47, was sentenced Friday to 30 days of home confinement, two years probation, 250 hours of community service, and a $4,000 fine. And all of that was suspended pending appeal, which may take up to a year.
While many disappointed fans may see the sentence as insufficient punishment for the man they feel irreparably tarnished the image of America's pastime, most legal experts say the sentence was correct and proportional. They remind fans that Mr. Bonds was not being judged for his years of alleged steroid use, but for the single charge of obstructing justice, a far lesser charge than perjury, over which the jury was deadlocked.
"The sentence seems reasonable under the circumstances to me," says Kevin Johnson, dean of the UC Davis Law School. He notes that the sentence was what the probation office recommended despite federal sentencing guidelines that recommend 15 to 21 months in prison.
"The sentence was soft but fair," adds Mark Conrad, associate professor of law and ethics at the Schools of Business, Fordham University. "He was only convicted on one of four charges, and not the most serious perjury charges. He was convicted of misleading a grand jury – it did not justify a 15-month jail term that the prosecutors wanted."
Bonds, who holds what is perhaps baseball's most coveted record – 762 home runs – was convicted last April on one count of obstruction of justice for being evasive before a federal grand jury eight years ago that was investigating the use of drugs in sports.
He also had been charged with several counts of perjury for allegedly lying during the grand jury's investigation of Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative (BALCO) in Burlingame, Calif., which sold banned substances to athletes.
Bonds's sentence could be a harbinger of what is to come for other athletes charged in connection with drug use, say other observers.
"The sentencing of Bonds should serve as a barometer for the likes of Roger Clemens, who faces charges of lying to Congress about his use of steroids and who likely will look carefully at how Bonds was treated in assessing his own defense strategy," says Fernando L. Aenlle-Rocha, a former federal prosecutor in the Criminal Division of the United States Attorney's Office.
The court of public opinion, meanwhile, is where Bonds has the bigger uphill battle, say public relation specialists.
"[This] ends a public relations nightmare for Bonds and baseball. Beyond the Bay Area, Bonds drew very little support due to his stunning denials and his 'I'll beat this wrap' attitude," says John Goodman of John Goodman PR. "That hurt Bonds in the world of public opinion. He's damaged goods and his marketability for endorsements and advertisements has been harmed greatly."
He also feels the sentence will reflect badly on professional baseball.
"The wrist-slap verdict is a terrible setback for Major League Baseball, which has tried to convey a crack-down image of testing for steroids, and most recently HGH [human growth hormone]. But all the testing is meaningless if those accused can get off with easy sentencing. The average baseball fan is outraged, and feels another rich, entitled athlete got away with a crime that would have put the average guy in jail."
But some sports writers feel that whatever fans feel, baseball has the Bonds case in its rearview mirror.
"Major League Baseball has moved on from Bonds and the BALCO case. The only question pertaining to Bonds is how long voters will wait before electing him to the Hall of Fame," says Yahoo! Sports columnist Les Carpenter in an email. "Baseball has been lauded for its attempts to strengthen steroid policies – as evidenced by the pending 50-game suspension of National League MVP Ryan Braun after a random test showed high levels of testosterone."

A joint initiative between the American Immigration Council and AILA seeks to change the playing field for immigrants facing deportation.
Register for AILA's National Day of Action (NDA) on April 11, 2019, to meet with members of Congress and share how the administration's immigration policy changes are harming American families, businesses, and communities.Register Now
AILA Doc. No. 08082275 | Dated August 22, 2008
WASHINGTON, DC - To the surprise of no one, ICE announced today that, due to lack of interest, it would not be continuing its "Operation Scheduled Departure." This so-called "Operation" asked people who had been subject to a final order of deportation to turn themselves in for removal. After spending over $40,000 just on advertising the program, ICE announced that a grand total of eight people responded in the five cities in which the "Operation" was conducted.
Why is this result no surprise? Because no incentive was provided that would have made this program more attractive than just leaving on one's own.
"To call the effort half-hearted would give ICE half a heart too much credit," said Charles Kuck, President of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). "It was never anything more than a public relations ploy so that ICE could say in the end 'gosh, we tried, but no one turned up, now we can go back to doing enforcement our way,' which is precisely what they are now saying. It was never a serious effort."
"Had the government applied the resources and attention it gave to this so-called operation to improving their detention conditions, enhancing alternative detention options, or beefing up the immigration court system, some small progress to a workable system might have been made," said Kuck. "Instead, ICE is concentrating on PR ploys in order to justify the heavy-handed tactics that have marked its more recent operations."
Let it not be said, as ICE officials have, that AILA does not want the immigration laws enforced. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. Our immigration laws must be enforced; anything else is a mockery of our system. But, that enforcement must come with forethought and a respect for not only the constitutional rights, but the basic human rights of all individuals. Hauling non-criminal "fugitives" out of their houses in their underwear at 6:00 a.m., in front of their crying children, in order to hold them for 8 weeks in detention before actually deporting them, is not an effective or humane enforcement of the civil immigration laws.
Ultimately, the problem remains that the U.S. has a severely broken immigration system. AILA calls upon Congress and the Administration to formulate meaningful reform that provides a safe, orderly and rational means to obtain legal status and thus a focused prism for keeping out and removing those individuals who should be removed from the United States.

LOWER PROVIDENCE - The builder of the Shannondell at Valley Forge retirement community wants to substitute a $2 million cash payment to fix part of two intersections on Park Avenue for a 16-year-old legal commitment to extend the private Shannondell Boulevard driveway to Park Avenue and make it a public street.
The 1998 agreement with Audubon Land Development Corp. (ALDC) was made in exchange for a conditional use approval from the township allowing the construction of 2,520 housing units with a single driveway entrance on Shannondell Boulevard, from Egypt Road to the age-restricted community's gated entrance. ALDC agreed to start planning the public road extension after the 800th unit was built and complete it by the time the 1,000th unit was completed.
The developer has asked for a change in the conditional use granted 16 years ago, and the hearing about the request will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at the township building.
Shannondell officials say there are 999 units at Shannondell, but township officials have physically counted a slightly smaller number, according to a former township official.
ALDC officials have consistently fought the township over the roadway extension project but have not built a second driveway into Shannondell to give firefighters and ambulance crews a second entry. Shannondell residents account for the largest number of ambulance runs for the township ambulance service.
The membership of the five-member board of supervisors has completely changed since the conditional use was approved in 1998. Sixteen years ago, the board consisted of Tom Borai, Joseph Dunbar, Mary Ralston, Richard Brown and Jacqueline Crahalla.
The conditional use, with the requirement for the Shannondell Boulevard extension, was approved in a 3-to-1 vote with Borai, Dunbar and Brown voting for it and Crahalla voting 'no.' Ralston abstained because she owned land next to the project.
'The $2 million payment does not solve the traffic problems. The road improvements on Park Avenue were estimated at $7 million in 2008. It would cost more now,' said Brown, a former supervisors' chairman who served for 28 years on the board. 'We have no public thoroughfare on Shannondell now and we have the prospect of 2,520 units, with the addition of the 1,500 units, on a dead-end street. It is ludicrous.'
Brown pointed out that the senior housing project was a compromise plan negotiated over two years in the 1990s because the land was split-zoned between residential and industrial.
'It was a compromise between the board, the planning commission and the developer based on what the residents wanted,' Brown said.
Brown said he does not plan to attend the hearing or write a letter to the board.
'Somebody needs to represent the rest of the Lower Providence residents. This road would be the first public road built in the township in years to connect things,' Brown said. 'It would relieve congestion on Park, Pawlings and Egypt roads. The $2 million (offer) is totally inadequate.'
On June 9, the Lower Providence Planning Commission reviewed and approved a recommendation to the supervisors allowing ALDC to drop the requirement to 'extend Shannondell Boulevard as a public road with the option of putting the monies into improving the intersection of Eagleville, Crawford and Park Avenue.'
The board will hold a conditional use hearing at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, on the planning commission recommendation.
Township Manager Richard Gestrich said ALDC had offered $2,060,000 for the realignment of Eagleville Road and/or Crawford Road to intersect with Park Avenue at a new traffic signal. Gestrich said that Casey Moore, the township's traffic engineer, would offer cost estimates for the project that would increase ALDC's required contribution.
The township has plans to apply for a $3 million PennDOT grant to complete the more than $5 million road realignment project.
Moore told the planning commission that his cost estimate for extending Shannondell Boulevard added an additional $750,000 to $1 million to a previous $2 million cost estimate. A higher cost for the Shannondell extension would push up ALDC's monetary contribution to the Eagleville Road/Crawford Road realignment, Gestrich said.
'The board has an opportunity to fix a very difficult intersection,' Gestrich said.

Squatters are starting to leave a northwest Calgary duplex under police supervision, potentially ending a high-profile occupation of what a tenant had claimed was his embassy.
Most of the squatters remain indoors, though they have been loading a vehicle with their belongings.
Police have also cuffed and searched a friend of those who have been staying inside the apartment. Officers loaded him into a cruiser and later took him away.
"We are leaving in peace," a man from the house wearing a purple shirt, who didn't identify himself, said earlier on Friday.
"We didn't realize that all this was this way. I regret I wasn't informed before that anything was going down this way."
Early this morning, Calgary police arrested Freeman-on-the-Land Mario Antonacci, also known as Andreas Pirelli, who had refused to pay rent and leave the Parkdale duplex.
The arrest came hours before an eviction deadline tonight at midnight.
A group of people took up residence shortly after and declared the rental duplex their own "embassy."
A man declaring himself a member of the "Deneza Country" earlier told the Herald the group planned to stay put.
"I'm going to stay here for now. We're staying by international law that all lands are Indian lands," he said earlier.
Antonacci was arrested on a Canada-wide warrant without incident and remains in police custody.
Arrangements are being made to transport him to Montreal within the next six days to face aggravated assault charges.
Calgary police say they are working to resolve the situation with the people in the home.
Duplex owner Rebekah Caverhill has been trying to evict Antonacci for the past two years, but never had a formal rental contract.
When Antonacci changed the locks and declared her property his own, she was horrified to learn he had taken over the entire space, painting the floor and bedroom black.
The messy suite also sported a boardroom table with chairs in the basement, where Caverhill said he was holding civil disobedience classes.
"I'm relieved," she told the Herald Friday morning.
Now, she says while she's grateful police have removed Antonacci from her property, she fears she may be facing costs to repair the duplex.
"That's what scares me, I've got a lot of expenses," she said from her Sylvan Lake area home.
The man at the house said he was sorry for any hardship caused to the Caverhill.
"If any harm was done to the lady we sincerely apologize, I wasn't aware until later on when I got in, now I'm here," he said.
"I know this is her house and she can have it."
The man also told reporters: "I'm not under your jurisdiction. We do not subject to this kind of tax. I will go to the right representative to bring peace to this situation as soon as possible."
Caverhill said she had been fighting to oust Antonacci from the duplex for two years, after he declared the property an "embassy," changed locks, billed her for work done on the place and had a lien placed on the property.
"You can't take someone's home, you can't declare it an embassy. This, to me, is wrong," she said. "I just want it over with. I want it done in an orderly manner."
Antonacci was charged as Andreas Pirelli under the province's Fair Trading Act for operating without a prepaid contractor licence connected to a separate Aug. 20 incident. He was scheduled to appear in court Nov. 29 to address that charge.
Service Alberta is also looking into allegations he changed the locks on the rental property without the consent of Caverhill, an offence under the Residential Tenancies Act, which comes with a maximum $5,000 fine.
In addition, the lien placed on the property by an associate is under investigation.
"Filing a lien requires a sworn affidavit, and lying under oath can be considered perjury," Service Alberta spokesman Mike Berezowsky said in an email. He added that providing false information on a lien is akin to uttering a forged document.
Antonacci is wanted on a warrant out of Quebec after he stopped showing up during a 2010 assault trial on charges stemming from a 2007 incident in which a landlady was allegedly thrown down the stairs.
Jocelyne Malouf says the incident took place after she tried to evict the tenant, who paid no rent and had also declared her Montreal property an "embassy." She said she suffered several broken bones and spent two months in hospital.
Quebec's office of public prosecutions said the Montreal trial continued without the accused and the Crown completed presenting its evidence.

Mike Leigh began his career as one of Britain's most interesting directors with this realistic drama about a woman looking for respite from an unsatisfying life. Sylvia (Anne Raitt) is a slightly overweight woman who works as a secretary and hasn't had much luck in romance.
She shares her home with her retarded sister, whom she looks after, and has been dating Peter (Eric Allen), a schoolteacher whom she hopes will ask her to marry him. However, one evening they have a date that doesn't go especially well, and Sylvia discovers that Peter is impotent; he breaks up with her shortly afterward.
The only other interesting relationship in her life is with Norman (Mike Bradwell), a hippie who rents out Sylvia's garage as a workspace for his underground newspaper and plays songs on his guitar for her sister.
Bleak Moments was adapted from a play written by Leigh; as is his habit, the story was created in collaboration with the actors who originated the roles.
