Been meaning to ask if anyone encountered any Caucasian persons working in the hotel industry in the major cities in Japan, but as low-level personnel (e.g. bellboys, etc.).
I found that one really fascinating IMO. I usually see them in managerial positions and such when I travel abroad.

Aird, Langus -
Thanks for all the input - see, I really do need people to give me some decent idea of what it'll be like there. I forgot to mention to you all that I'm in the science area, and anyone who's anyone in scientific academia NEEDS to know good English to publish in respectable journals. Therefore, work will probably be largely conducted in English. I only need to know enough Japanese to survive there, what level would that be? I only know basic hiragana/katakana and a few kanji now, but I certainly intend to improve that.
My connections in Japan - I have a friend there, and I am a member of a church which has establishments in Japan, so I can rely on the members there for support if I am left clueless on how to shop, lol. As for work, I would organise it before I get there by sending emails. I'm not dumb enough to fly off without having someplace to work first.
12hours sounds like a lot.. But I'm willing to do it for a few years if neccessary. I hear not all places are like that, though... you guys might just be referring to company-based work hours, I think. I'll have to figure it out if it's the same in a university.

Odds are that someone with a university degree isn't going to be working as a bellboy or at the local convenience store. There are exceptions, of course, like people who come in via marriage or what not, but it's not common. Those lower level jobs are typically reserved for the Japanese kids who dropped out of high school.

In Japan right now on a study abroad (Yes, Nishinomiya, Haruhi`s city, between Osaka and Kobe; I think I even walk past the school that the author models SOS-dan`s school after every day -- argh that damn hill) and liking it so far. Question though:
How best to enjoy Osaka and Kyoto (and Kobe too maybe)?
Points of consideration:
1) I`m relatively poor.
2) Tour guide-style guided traveling isn`t exactly the most interesting. Yes, temples, woo.
3) I`ve always romanticized the Flaneur, but I`m not exactly good enough in Japanese to be walking around totally blind.
4) Ryoukan > Western Hotels, except for toilets
5) As said above, I`m sitting tight between Osaka and Kobe within walking distance of a JR station, but JR prices are quite expensive (any interesting discount options I should know?)
6) Will be here up to January. Fall and Winter, that is. What`s there to see that I shouldn`t ever miss?
7) The "Night Life" which Osaka at least is famous for isn`t for me. Alcohol = no thanks. Parties = not my jazz. Soaplands = fuck you...no, I don`t mean I actually will...ah screw it...I, I mean.... ...
8) What`s the best way to transport seven hundred tons of manga back home without exorbitant fees and customs annoyances?
9) Where to buy anime stuff for cheap in Kansai? Is Nipponbashi the right place?
10) Should I, or should I not, ever try to enter a maid/tsundere/butler(!?) cafe?
Spoiler for Points of Interest:

OK so I have a question in regard to visiting/living in Japan...
I know getting a visitor's visa is one thing, but what about a foreigner, like me (and possibly you) getting a permanent visa and citizenship? Does Japan allow that sort of stuff?

Yes they do. Every country does that. Well, mostly. Remember, Japan doesn't allow dual-citizenship unless you're from Mexico or Uruguay(dual-citizenship).
Recently, Japan has been limiting the visa and citizenship due to overpopulation and foreigners in the job market. Though, I might be wrong.
Though, I wouldn't mind being a Japanese neutralize citizen, then later they pay me to leave the country. Easy money.

Many Old World and particularly European countries are Jus sanguinis, unlike the New World where Jus soli is more common. Japan's law is probably one of the most severe, as it still does not tolerate dual citizenship, while many Jus sanguinis countries have softened their policies (Philippines comes to my mind, as I was able to reclaim citizenship a few years ago).

hahhahaah I originally had wanted to move to japan and live with my japanese aunt because its always been my dream to attend a japanese high school(especially the same high school kyon in the anime the melancholy of haruhi suzumiya went to, since the anime settings are real places, even kyons house is a real house.... <-- Lol). I wanted to drop out to high school after finishing my sophomore year and live in japan.. after reading some things here im worring hahah.
Guess i have been a bit wayyyy to infuenced by anime. But nevertheless after i finish school i shall go to Japan!!!! and once i go there, the first thing i will do is buy an ENTIRE LIBRARY OF MANGA(exaggering :P) BWAHAHAHAH. sigh... guess my dream of attending a japanese high school will NEVER come true.. i have thought about trying to try the exchange student thing.. but im too shy and nervous. :O. and im not sure how the system works. how much does it cost and ect.
*sob* guess its time to stop dreaming and first finish high school atleast.... and btw... from what i read, its wierd to NOT have a girlfriend? Lmfao, ive always seen guys confessing and ect in anime ALOT but i didnt think it was the same in real life. Well, im wayy to shy and have no self confidence whatsoever to even try to confess or get a girlfriend... i had planned to never marry LOL. Bleh... Japan never fails to amaze me.
Well time to start studying since i got 3 tests coming up.... btw can anyone please answer some questions for me if i go to japan?
1. Are most people very social? cause i dont talk much(im known as the quiet guy at school). would they think im very wierd and tease me or ect?
2. Are there alot of bullies? and if so, do i have permission to beat them up? >
3. from what i see from anime, its normal to have a part time job from a early age right? in real life, is it easy to get a part time job in japan? and what age would be a normal age for a teenager to have a part time job.
4. in japanese schools, do they do alot of things where the students NEED to participate?(like cultural festival). if i wanted, can i not participate?
5. do japanese guys really get nosebleeds sometimes? like if a strong wind comes and makes some kawaii girls skirts go up, will a pervert get a nosebleed? . i would love to see that happen
6. whats the normal kind of transportation one would use to go somewhere. like subway,train,bus, or ect? and how much would it cost. from what i see in anime, the characters seen to travel to different places in japan alot.
7. What parts of japan are country? like a area with houses with electricity and plumbing but helping out in the rice fields and ect?(example would be the manga Kimi no Iru Machi)
8. is it worth visiting japan? whats it like there? and would it be okay to actually live there? if i knew a decent amount of japanese, and i lived in japan after finishing a college in america, what sort of stuff should i do to get started in living in a nice small apartment. my dream home has always been a japanese style house, but that aside, i wanted to live in a small apartment, each day going to my job and living the life of a shut in since i would know nobody there...
9. if i were to go to japan without knowing anyone there but knew enough japanese and have an enough amount of money to rent an apartment for a short while, what should i do to get started.
10. final Question: are japanese libraries (including school libraries) what you might see in an anime? america's school libraries are very small and uber boring but public libraries are somewhat decent but.., are japanese libraries very big and nice? also.. is there anything else i should know if i were to going live in japan?
Edit: what should i know about citizenship? how do i obtain a japanese citizenship and will not having one affect what kind of jobs i can get or lifestyle? and if i revoke my american citizenship, what kind of affects does it have in any way. from long term to short term affects. if i decided to return to america after revoking my american citizenship and living in japan for like 10 years or so, how can i get an american citizenship(or japanese citizenship). also... what affects does not having an american citizenship have if you are living in america
note: i have no clue about citizenships in general, and im 14..
another note: i dont neccesarily plan on living in japan permanatly in japan yet, i will probably just live in japan for about a year or two to better experience their culture, im not that stupid to live in japan with almost no knowledge of japanese. i wonder if knowing a few hundred kanji, memorized hiragana and katakana and being able to read profeciently in hiragana and katakana(but not kanji) if enough to live in japan? how much and what should i know in terms of communicative skills to live in japan. and if i do live in japan, i want to live in the countryside, a nice slow paced lifestyle. where would a beautiful countryside like that be?

Equivio Zoom Tab in Relativity Now Available
Equivio Zoom Tab in Relativity Enables Seamless Use of Equivio Predictive Coding and Analytics via Relativity GUI; Approved by kCura as an Application in the Relativity Ecosystem
Jan 18, 2013, 11:32 ET
KENSINGTON, Md., Jan. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Equivio, a provider of analytical solutions for e-discovery, announced today that Zoom, its end-to-end e-discovery platform for predictive coding and analytics, has been integrated within kCura's e-discovery platform, Relativity. Available in the Relativity Ecosystem, the new integration enables users to launch and manage Zoom from an integrated tab within the standard Relativity GUI. This tab is offered at no additional cost for Relativity users who have licensed Equivio Zoom.
The all-in-one solution features a unified GUI and seamless data flows, making it easy for Relativity users to benefit from the full suite of Zoom functionality without leaving the Relativity environment. This integration provides seamless access to all Zoom functionality and data from within Relativity, creating a straightforward, intuitive user experience.
This tight integration provides users with several key advantages:
- Unified GUI – With Zoom fully embedded within Relativity, users can remain within the comfort zone of the Relativity "look and feel."
- Short learning curve for Relevance training – The "training" stage of the predictive coding application, based on manual review by attorneys, is performed using the standard Relativity review GUI.
- Seamless data flow – Zoom directly accesses and updates the Relativity database to create an efficient and seamless workflow that simplifies data handling, saves time and reduces the risk of errors.
- Simple to deploy – Automated installation and tight integration ensure straightforward setup and implementation of the Equivio Zoom tab and functionality.
"From the beginning, through our latest release, we've always developed Relativity as both an e-discovery solution and a platform for partners to integrate their technologies with ours. Equivio has done a great job integrating Zoom, providing an all-in-one experience with these solutions," said Andrew Sieja, president and CEO of kCura. "We're excited about the value this integration brings to our collective end users."
Zoom combines Equivio's best-of-breed Relevance application for predictive coding, with advanced analytics including clustering, near-duplicates, email threads and language detection. Zoom can be used for early data assessment as well as significantly reducing review set volumes and enabling prioritized review. The Zoom components are seamlessly integrated on a unified web-based platform for easy access and use. The unified platform approach eliminates the need for moving data between applications, shortening data handling cycles and reducing the risk of errors.
The Equivio Zoom tab in Relativity is already being used by a select group of shared customers, including SFL Data, a San Francisco-based provider of managed e-discovery services. "We were very impressed with the integration of Equivio Zoom and Relativity, which simplifies and enhances the integrated workflow between these two best-of-breed solutions," said Sonya Sigler, VP of Product Strategy at SFL Data. "We are excited to have been one of the first to implement this solution in order to shrink data volumes and reduce total litigation costs for our clients."
"We are thrilled to have completed the integration of the Equivio Zoom tab within Relativity," said Amir Milo, CEO of Equivio. "This takes our ongoing collaboration with kCura to a new level. Now that Relativity is 'Zoom-ready,' kCura and Equivio are able to offer clients an all-in-one experience by offering both solutions in a single, tightly integrated interface."

Stone Fruit Caprese Salad Recipe
A Heat Wave Fruit Save: Stone Fruit Caprese
When the weather gets hot, Food Orleans goes no-cook with simple recipes like a peachy take on the caprese salad.
Did someone say heat wave? Can I get a witness sweatband?
Look, it's too hot to cook, but the good thing is, there's plenty of ripe fruit and veggies to gorge on. Take a simple caprese salad, for instance: tomatoes, basil, mozz, vinegar, and oil. I love it, you love it, we've all eaten plenty of them. But don't think a caprese has to stop there: use fruit, like peaches, nectarines, and avocados. Use other vegetables, like roasted eggplant, squash, and cukes. The caprese salad is one of the best Italian inventions ever, and I'm not going to let the traditional recipe stop me from going ca-ra-zay with it.
This recipe is so simple, I'm gonna lay it out for you in pics. These amounts will serve 2 non-gluttonous adults a light salad or appetizer, or 1 very sweaty girl a light lunch:
Get a nice, ripe peach and a plum. Any kind of plum will do; I got a black one. Cut 4 or 5 slices of each fruit—you'll still have 3/4 of the fruit left. Get a little basil and tear off a few big leaves and a few tiny ones.
Get 4 slices of fresh mozzarella—this is about half of an 8-ounce ball. Cut the slices in half to make half-circles.
Arrange the peach, plum, and mozzarella slices in some sort of overlapping, alternating fashion. Or just plop them all on a plate. Tuck some basil leaves in and around, and scatter smaller leaves over the top.
Read on to learn about the dressing — and to get the full recipe! — for this Summer salad.
Now, make the simplest dressing known to humankind: a couple tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil, a tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, a good pinch of salt, and a few twists of the pepper grinder. Stir really fast with a fork until it sort of blends together.
That's it. Serve it like this, with the dressing on the side, or drizzle the dressing around the edge of the plate. You can pour it over the top as well, but I think it looks a lot prettier around the edge. Plus your mozz will get stained brown if you pour it on the top, and that's just sad.
Warning: whoever you serve this to will devour it in seconds. This is a fact.
You might want to make more.
Stone Fruit Caprese
4 slices of ripe peach
4 slices of ripe black plum
4 slices of fresh mozzarella, cut crosswise into half-circles
6 basil leaves
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
A pinch of salt, about 1/4 teaspoon
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- Layer the peach, plum, and cheese in alternating slices on a plate or platter. Tuck basil leaves in and around.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.
- Drizzle dressing around the edge of the platter and serve.
Serves 1 to 2, very lightly.

Hello friends! I started this quilt in 2004,
the top was made. I added the borders many years
later and still hadn't quilted it. I knew it would be
difficult after having been through cancer and
radiation, which kind of messed up my arm for
awhile...I lost a lot of strength and range of
motion in my right arm. It's slowly getting better after
10 years...still not at 100% however. But I
wanted to get this quilt done for so many years and
finally decided to finish it before my birthday tomorrow!
I absolutely love it and am so pleased to finally
have it on my white iron bed! I think it goes great in
my room and I can't wait to start on my next quilt!
I hope this inspires you to make a quilt
someday to be treasured from generation
to generation!
Have a wonderful week and stay cool in
this hot weather!

...If you're not familiar with the details of Political Risk Analysis, there is a good background piece here. I don't trust politicians in the least, which is why there will always be a need for political risk analysis. I hope to specialize in the Latin American markets, though with the current Obama administration in the USA, one could argue that investors here would be wise to consider political risk b/c of this new government's penchant for voiding contracts (AIG) and forcing-out CEO's from public companies (GM). It is a strange time we live in.
Here [Pittsburgh] the effects of the econ-fin. crisis are not as apparent as in other parts of the USA. For example, there was little speculative action in the housing market in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, unlike California or Florida, so there are relatively few foreclosures compared to those areas. Pittsburgh was previously dependent on its manufacturing base (steel) but in the early 1980's had to completely reinvent itself to survive economically...we're now a regional leader in the field of health care and university research.
In time, though, the recession will become more significant in its effects. Unfortunately, the people - both the citizens and the elected officials - want to pretend that everything is OK, rather than preparing for the inevitable crisis. SO that is why I buy this pen now, while I can still kind of "afford" it, because I believe that the worst is yet to come. My friend has lost 40% of the value of his retirement account, and is every day worried about his position...but he is in a different part of the country. He works for the firm xxxx and they are seeing a NOTICEABLE slow-down in business. :(
Not good times.
I am scared for the country, and for the global economic system in general. I am very moderate in my political beliefs, and I am an economic liberal (meaning that I support capitalism with few interventions by the state and certainly not in the form we're now seeing), but I fear that there will be a POPULIST BACKLASH and the government will regulate and regulate and tax and tax to the point that they strangle the economy and impede world trade. A great crisis is brewing.

Evansville Plastic Surgeon Deemed "Breast Butcher" in Multiple Lawsuits
A group of Evansville women are pursuing legal action against a local plastic surgeon that is reportedly being referred to as the "Southern Indiana Breast Butcher."
According to reports, nearly ten women have come forward to file independent lawsuits against Dr. Alina Sholar alleging that while she was employed at Medical Cosmetic Center in Evansville, she devastatingly botched their breast enhancement surgeries, which resulted in both irreparable damage and long-term infection.
Some of the complaints allege that Dr. Sholar conducted cut-rate practices that included the use of second-hand implant sizers, intended for a "use once and destroy" application, and the falsification of medical records.
"There's a lot more to the situation than I can comment about," said Sholar's attorney, Michele Bryant of Kahn, Dees, Donovan & Kahn, LLP in Evansville. "It is more complicated than I can comment about. I'm sure people are curious about why there are multiple cases."
In Indiana, cases like these, which teeter on malpractice and the risk of community blacklisting, are initially reviewed by a panel of three medical professionals to determine if there was any negligence. From there, the panel's ruling can be admitted into evidence and used in a court of law. And while the first case has already been ruled that Dr. Sholar did participate in substandard medical practices, most of the cases have yet to be reviewed. It is expected that those cases will be looked at sometime this year.
Incidentally, Dr. Sholar has since been fired from Medical Cosmetics Center for what is being called "a difference in philosophy." She is currently practicing at The Sholar Center in Evansville.

Marriott's 'The Producers' Keeps It Gay

I've been checking back every so often to see if this problem would correct itself, and I'd just like to report that it HAS!
I'm still using the same computer and set up, but obviously either an update to Safari, or Unity or something cleared up the problem.
Really happy to be able to finally get in and play the game. Huge fan.

I don't think Norwood would let it go without the smog equipment would they?
Why was it that the manual trans got smog and the automatics didn't?
Generally speaking, an automatic car required less aggressive emission control than a manual transmission car because the engine load (and carburetor fuel metering consistency) was more stable and predictable.
Looks like a nice car but check out sellers feedback.opinions thoughts or comments..........ThanksLM69Z28

Once again, teammates go to bat for Lynn
ST. LOUIS -- Tuesday night unfolded much like Act One between Lance Lynn and Homer Bailey, who met in a 13-run affair last week in Cincinnati. Lynn again served up three first-inning runs, only to exhale as his offense erased the deficit by frustrating Bailey.
The recipient of nearly six runs of support in his starts a year ago, Lynn needed every bit of that help in his first outing and also in this second one. The Cardinals obliged with a balanced show of production, ensuring a series victory by defeating the Reds, 7-5, in front of 40,672 fans at Busch Stadium.View Full Game Coverage
ST. LOUIS -- Tuesday night unfolded much like Act One between Lance Lynn and Homer Bailey, who met in a 13-run affair last week in Cincinnati. Lynn again served up three first-inning runs, only to exhale as his offense erased the deficit by frustrating Bailey.
The recipient of nearly six runs of support in his starts a year ago, Lynn needed every bit of that help in his first outing and also in this second one. The Cardinals obliged with a balanced show of production, ensuring a series victory by defeating the Reds, 7-5, in front of 40,672 fans at Busch Stadium.View Full Game Coverage
"Resilient," manager Mike Matheny said. "I think, I hope, that label fits them extremely well. They don't let the score necessarily dictate the way they go about their at-bats. When they keep their head down and just keep going, it's amazing what they can do."
As potent an offense as the one the Cardinals featured a year ago, they didn't have a come-from-behind win of at least four runs until Aug. 15. This year, it took until the eighth game.
The Cardinals did it, too, with a wide cast of contributors and equal parts power and peskiness. Representative of the depth of the Cardinals' lineup, seven of the eight starting position players reached base at least once, five contributed multihit games, five drove in at least one run and four different players scored.
"You could see the innings that got started tonight, they started all different ways with hits, walks, what have you," said Peter Bourjos, who recorded his first three-hit game as a Cardinal. "It's a pretty complete offense. There are so many different ways to score runs, and if we're constantly putting pressure on the defense or the pitcher, eventually you're going to break through."
Matt Holliday's two-out, two-run double in the sixth capped the comeback and positioned Lynn to move to 2-0 this season despite giving up eight runs in his first 11 innings. He's fortunate that he's twice matched up against Bailey, who has had similar trouble finding his footing to start the season. Though Bailey exited his start on Tuesday with the lead, he allowed the Cardinals to whittle away most the good the Reds' offense had done early.
The Cardinals then finished the job against the Reds' bullpen. Regardless the outcome on Wednesday, the Cardinals will now have won 26 of their last 31 home series against Cincinnati.
"They've been good against us here, in St. Louis in particular, at taking advantage of RBI opportunities," Reds manager Bryan Price said. "If there's been a nemesis for us, against this team in particular in St. Louis, it's been avoiding the big inning."
The Reds had a promising start, jumping on Lynn to score three times in a 28-pitch first inning. Unable to fool the Reds with his fastball in his first start, Lynn tried mixing more off-speed offerings in early. It didn't help.
Jay Bruce, who clobbered a two-run homer off Lynn last week, delivered a two-run triple off a curveball this time. Ryan Ludwick followed with a sacrifice fly.
"They're an aggressive team early and often, and I just have to make better pitches," Lynn said. "That's just part of getting into the flow of the game. So far, at the beginning of the game, sometimes I haven't been able to get the rhythm that I like. I've had it later in games. I need to get a better rhythm coming out of the gate."
Starting strong was not so much a problem for Lynn last year, whose first-inning ERA (3.55) was lower than those for each of the four subsequent innings.
"Obviously, these last two haven't started exactly how he's wanted to, but he's done a better job as he went," Matheny said. "We just need to get him a little bit sharper right when he heads out of the gate."
The Reds pushed their lead to four in the second inning, but watched the Cardinals erase it entirely as they batted around in the bottom half of the frame. Yadier Molina jump-started the scoring with a solo homer, his third home run in eight games this season. A year ago, he didn't hit No. 3 until May 27.
Singles by Matt Adams and Bourjos gave the Cardinals continued life, and Lynn was able to extend the inning by keeping out of a double play on a botched sacrifice bunt. Matt Carpenter followed with an RBI single before Kolten Wong tied the game with a two-run triple.
"The at-bat before that, I was just trying to see how he was attacking me," said Wong, who went 81 at-bats before collecting this first career RBI. "He threw that curveball to me and I saw it out of his hand and I put a good swing on it to do something."
Wong would reach base three times in the game, just as he had on Monday.
Lynn allowed the Reds back in front in the fifth with his continued problems retiring Joey Votto and Bruce -- the two are now a combined 8-for-10 against Lynn this year -- but he managed to pitch the Cardinals through the sixth. That final inning was his only clean one in an 112-pitch effort.
Getting through it, though, allowed Lynn to be the benefactor of Holliday's go-ahead hit off Logan Ondrusek. Bruce had a bead on Holliday's deep fly ball to right, but in a moment that brought flashbacks of Nelson Cruz, it sailed just past his glove and off the wall.
"I catch that. I should. I expect to," Bruce said. "I just jumped a tad early. Error or not, it's a ball I should have caught. I take a lot of pride in defense and that side of the game."
Bourjos' RBI single in the seventh gave the Cardinals' bullpen a hint of insurance that it wouldn't end up needing. Randy Choate, Carlos Martinez and Trevor Rosenthal each pitched a scoreless inning.

It's DONE!
And it looks fantastic.
Chris has the sleeves pushed up a bit because it was about 75 degrees in the sun on Saturday at the Flea Market we visited. He kept the sweater on until I told him that I wouldn't be offended if he took it off, it was a bit warm. So sweet. He's earned himself another sweater in the after-Christmas knitting future.

This is the second in a two part series following-up on my post about Action Lists.
In the comments section of that post Michelle Goodrum asked:
"When you return from a research outing where you have used one of these
lists that contain multiple projects, do you end up writing multiple
reports? I realize you would need to write multiple reports for
different clients. How about multiple reports to yourself, if you have
several projects going?"
For me, the answer is a not so simple as yes or no. The Action Lists mostly represent record pulls. When I'm doing in-depth research such as on brick walls, I will do analysis on the spot. When I'm doing record pulls, I will likely glance over the records to see if I have a gold mine of information in hand but will hold analysis for later.
I mention this because a written report is usually based on analysis. Since my Action Lists are simple record pulls I may or may not be doing analysis right when I get back to the office.
I'm sure some professionals are gasping at this admission!
My Action Lists can contain research for a myriad of projects such as client research, personal research, research for friends, background research for articles and background research for talks.
The Action Lists help me to save time by pulling a whole slew of records all at one time in one trip. My schedule then dictates which projects I will be able to work on first.
Client projects with deadlines will be dealt with first. Personal research may wait a week or a month.
It's true that I could further my personal research by doing on the spot analysis thus allowing me to continue the hunt for more records. But my time is limited and I need to prioritize so that all the important information gets pulled first.
With active, high priority research such as for clients, analysis of what I've found will be done right away and multiple research reports, if necessary will be written.
When it comes to background research for articles or talks I often like to do a survey of a certain type or time frame of records. I may pull 10, 20, 50 or 100 records to get the background information I need. For these I am not writing reports. I will, instead, be analyzing the records for trends or other information that I can use in the talks or articles.
When the time comes to look at the personal research, yes I will be writing multiple reports. I like to keep my genealogy tight and focused. I tend to write specific reports covering one objective or question rather than a broad topic. For instance, I wrote a personal report about what I found in census records for my brick wall immigrant ancestor, William Edwards. I might write another about surveying passenger list arrival records. Later on I would write a separate research report of my overall analysis based on the sum total of the previous research reports. Many researchers often put this all in one report but I stay more focused and less overwhelmed if I break things down.
Again, I'm not saying that my approach is the best approach. It is simply what I have found to work for me based on my personality, work style and time limitations.

Thanks, Marian. I only do my own family research and I had been wondering if I needed to write a report for each person, or document, or life fact that I am researching. You have given me something to think about. "Eating an elephant one bite at a time" or "KISS" is something I need to focus on more. Thanks for the continuing education.ReplyDelete
I like the Action Lists approach. Very GTD!ReplyDelete
Thank you for your insights. And for the shout out.ReplyDelete

Politics for DilettantesKawaii -- Wednesday, October 08, 2003 -- 10:08:43 PM
Apathetic? Uninformed? Don't even vote? Have your bread and want your circus?This thread is tagged: politics, republicans, democrats
(All users will see what tags exist for a thread. Please tag carefully!)
I am kind of hoping the crushing power of apathy can keep the flames down. Fight fire with water and all.
How hard am I kicking myself because I've forgotten what it was that gave me the idea for the thread?
Not it, but: Is Bush made of teflon or what? Careers have been ended with the accusation of a fraction of things that have been thrown at him. Nothing sticks, how did he get to be such a golden boy?
I think it is the same as with Arnold: Bush is a very likable guy: he isn't mean, he is friendly, he doesn't put on airs. People like him, people trust him, so they are more willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Plus, a lot of the people who accuse him of stuff are clearly rabid, so their accusations are discounted.
Eh. I feared "dilettantes" was code for "apathetic but still somewhat partisan liberal-leaners."
Is Bush made of teflon or what? Careers have been ended with the accusation of a fraction of things that have been thrown at him. Nothing sticks, how did he get to be such a golden boy?
Gee, you'd have to go back... three years to find a President accused of worse behavior.
Christ. That's like, last milennium and shit.
I'd disagree that nothing sticks. If you've seen a graph of his approval numbers since he's been in office, you'll notice a sawtooth effect: they drop steadily in a straight line until 9-11, jump sky-high but immediately resume dropping, jump again during the war in Iraq but immediately resume dropping, until now, when they're around 50% depending on the poll you use. That's certainly not a spectacular approval rating.
By the way, Weaver, Ace: The thread was founded for dilettantes, which I take to mean people who do not already regularly post in Politics. Neither you nor I qualify under that heading. I don't plan to initiate any discussions here, but I will respond to posts by other Politics regulars. That said, I think the thread will function best as intended if we all stay out of it.
I think it's just a mirror image of the Clinton effect. One end of the spectrum is for him no matter what, the other is against him no matter what, and in the middle, as LB points out, the ratings fluctuate all the time. To those of us on the against-him-no-matter-what end it looks like nothing sticks, and it looked the same way to those on that end of the Clinton spectrum.
Sometimes you are just too funny, LB.
I think Clinton had the same sort of thing going for him that Bush does: He struck a lot of people as being a nice guy, so they were willing to cut him some slack.
Yes, Weaver, I think that's true.
See, LB, we just formed a dilettante consensus.
And yet we don't care about it very much.
Well, I don't care only because neither of them ever struck *me* as a particularly nice guy. I may have odd standards, though.
I don't intended at all to be a safe place for the those of liberal tendencies and this isn't moderated, no one is going to be yanking any posts to protect sensitivities.
I never found Clinton or Bush to be particularly likeable or trustworthy. I don't think they are evil, but I don't sense the magic of their charisma.
edit: heh, Brigit. Me too.
Well, I don't care only because neither of them ever struck *me* as a particularly nice guy.
That's because neither one ever posted on TPW. But if they did, I'm pretty sure you would like them.
But you see the effect, don't you?
How do we they haven't posted? bushmaster may be Clinton incognito.
Goodness no. Nobody actually likes bushmaster, not even LB. Nor does anybody really despise him. He is completely in Jexter territory. Can't be Clinton.
I do see an effect, but I want it to be shrewd political prowess. Charisma makes it seem too much like they just got lucky.
edit: what good would it be to disguise yourself if everyone can tell who you are? Maybe he is Gore.
Ooh, that was funny.
Y'know. Someone could have mentioned that this was discussed a few weeks ago elsewhere.
I'm uninformed and didn't know it was discussed elsewhere.

MACON, Ga. (Oct. 11, 2011) – The Atlantic Sun Conference released its preseason women's basketball selections on Tuesday afternoon, and the Lady Bucs were picked to finish second by the media and third by the coaches. In addition, sophomore Destiny Mitchell (Bluffton, Ga.) was named to the Preseason All-Atlantic Sun Team.
ETSU, who has won three of the last four A-Sun Tournament titles, return three starters from a year ago, while also getting red-shirt senior Tarita Gordon (Wichita, Kan.) back from injury. The Lady Bucs posted their sixth consecutive winning season in 2010-11, but ETSU had its three-year championship run snapped in the conference semifinals by Jacksonville. After a one-year hiatus, the Blue and Gold look to return to the NCAA Tournament, as the Lady Bucs return nine players from last season's squad and bring in six newcomers.
One of those returners is Mitchell – who was named Second Team All-Atlantic Sun and Atlantic Sun All-Freshman Team in 2010-11. The Bluffton, Ga. native is the Lady Bucs' top returning scorer (14.5) and rebounder (9.0) from a year ago, despite missing the final six games after dislocating her knee cap against North Florida back in February. Mitchell recorded 11 double-doubles as a freshman, while also collecting three A-Sun Newcomer of the Week honors and one A-Sun Player of the Week accolade.
Joining Mitchell on the preseason all-conference list were Preseason Player of the Year selection, Victoria McGowan, from Stetson and Defensive Player of the Year pick, Larkira Jones, from North Florida. McGowan, along with Belmont's Haley Nelson, USC Upstate's Tee'Ara Copney, and Mercer's Briana Williams were all unanimous selections on the preseason list. Rounding out the selections were UNF's Brittany Kirkland, FGCU's Courtney Chihil and Sarah Hansen, Kennesaw State's Sametria Gideon, Lipscomb's Anna Bowers, and Stetson's Sasha Sims.
In the team voting, Florida Gulf Coast swept the top spot in both the coaches and media polls, as the Eagles garnered eight of the ten first-place nods by the coaches and tallied all 19 votes by the media. FGCU finished with 95 votes in the coaches poll to beat out Stetson by eight points, while the Lady Bucs and Belmont were the other teams to receive a first-place vote by the coaches. ETSU was third with 81 points, Belmont was fourth with 64, and North Florida rounded out the top five with 61 points.
Meanwhile, in the media poll, FGCU ran away with the voting as they received 190 points and ETSU – who was picked second – tallied 159 points. Stetson was selected third (149 points), North Florida was fourth with 114 points and USC Upstate (seventh in the coaches poll) capped off the top five on the media side with 108 points.
Florida Gulf Coast and USC Upstate are now eligible for the A-Sun Tournament, and the Eagles also made it a clean sweep for tournament champion. The Eagles tallied eight of the ten votes by the coaches and all 19 votes by the media to be pegged the preseason tournament champion favorite.
The Lady Bucs will continue with their preseason practices as ETSU gears up for a pair of exhibition games before opening up the season at home against Tennessee Tech in the Preseason WNIT on Friday, Nov. 11.

text: I go to a fair number of concerts. With my Droid X, it had a video setting for concerts. With my new Rezound, there are no audio settings on the video player at all. Is there anything out there or is there anyway that I can record concert footage that is audibly clear. The video footage is great as it's in HD. However, the audio component is terrible. I sent an email to HTC asking for help yesterday. We shall see what they say. Any help at all is appreciated, Dave Fredericksburg, Va PS - I'm trying to get this figured out before I see The Who in early November. It's too late for Foreigner, Motley Crue, KISS, ZZ Top, etc.

You can never have too many options. That's true in a lot of cases throughout my daily life. Sometimes all of those options come with more thought than I tend to want to expend, though.
Let's say, hypothetically, you get a blast of cold winter air and find that your newly installed cattle waterer is frozen. Your electrician is sort of new at this sort of installation thing, so he got it set up, but he didn't get the thermostat set high enough to keep the water in liquid form. Your waterer is a brand you don't particularly like, but it's the only one local suppliers sell anymore, so you buy it instead of your old reliable stainless steel model that hasn't given you trouble for most of your career.
Waterers are usually not that bad to thaw out. You take a gallon milk jug and fill it with hot water from the sink. Pop the lid on your waterer, take the cover off the water valve and pour the hot water on it. Wait a moment and water begins to flow again. Replace all the stuff you took off and go about your day again.
Your new waterer doesn't play the game like that. The first gallon of hot water does nothing. The second gallon also does nothing. The valve on the water pipe coming out of the ground doesn't turn, so this baby is good and frozen. (On your previous favorite model, a second gallon was only needed on days below -30 F, and the second gallon never had to be emptied to generate water flow. One to two quarts of the second gallon got water going on that one. This new one? Frozen solid at 15 degrees ABOVE zero. Thank you, progress.)
Oh, if only there was a way that warmth could be transferred from the cattle's breakfast nook to the water pipe under the new waterer. But wait! There's this brand-new portable heater we just acquired that would be the perfect fit for this scenario!
I jumped in the cozy cab of my skid loader and headed down the road to get the new wind torch to see if it wouldn't be the perfect solution. Got that puppy all set up with power and fuel and aimed it at the bottom portion of the waterer, thanks to the handy side access door the engineers put within easy reach. A good warm breeze aimed at the waterer should warm up the ambient temp to the point of thawing it out adequately. Granted, it wouldn't be as fast as a jug of hot water on the other model of waterer, but it would be quicker than me standing on my head blowing on it to warm it up instead.
I set the heater a couple steps away from the waterer and went about my business with some other projects. No need to assemble elaborate ductwork for this job, I figured. Warmth is warmth. Why bother with guidance? Besides, a guy I know is a first-rate character and he set up some ductwork with his heater like this one. Got it all set up to thaw the frozen waterers in his barn on New Year's Eve. He made his ductwork out of bales. They tend to ignite when you blow 200-degree air through them for a while and don't stand around to watch. I wasn't going to let that happen to me, Mr. Safety.
A few minutes later, I came back to see if we had water flowing yet. Miracle of miracles, we did! But that wasn't all we had. Remember my old favorite water fountain? The stainless steel one? That was my favorite part of it. It was a rock solid performer. This new one claims to be cutting edge. You know what they make cutting edge stuff out of? Space-age polymers. Lots of great insulation value in those polymers. They are lighter than those old, heavy, stainless steel models and they can be molded into smooth shapes instead of sharp corners.
You know what those space-age polymers do when put in contact with some serious heat from a portable volcano? They morph. They morph big-time.
My cattle fountain had turned into sort of a fondue pot. The top was melting. The sides were melting. The side access door frame was drooping down like it was made of stiff cake batter.
This would require a plan of action. Step #1: Just chill. By that, I mean flip the switch, pull the power cord and kill the heat. Return the ambient temperature in the pen to the day's more typical December conditions. If Heat + Time = Melted Fountain, subtract the heat. I think that balances the equation, but algebra was never my favorite part of math.
Then I should have moved to Step #2: Become a sculptor. Grab anything solid and use it to shape the wet clay (the now-liquid waterer housing) in front of you. Incidentally, your wet clay is now turning into cotton candy. As the space age polymers begin to cool, they begin to hang in loose strands like cotton candy. Since you're not going to get wine-and-cheese crowds in the feedlot like it's a MoMA exhibit, skip the stylistic stuff and go with function over fashion.
So I went with my own Step #2: Remove the evidence. Start pulling at anything that's where it shouldn't be and get it out of there. Load up the heater and remove it from the scene of the crime. If it's not there, it didn't cause the problem.
Then come back a couple minutes later to discover that the side access door no longer fits where it should. Yeah, it's not like the submarine hatch doesn't seal and the thing is going to take on copious amounts of water as a result of a poor seal, but that door sorta needs to shut so that cold air doesn't get in to freeze the water line. Cuz, hey, we all know how that problem gets solved, don't we?
Since your cattle have one other water source they can use, you decide to limit access to this particular option. Some time to think may help. The next day, it warms up. Much nicer weather to be working on water issues. Why, it's even sloppy in the feedlot now, thanks to the warm temps. You know what that means? You get to lie down in sloppy stuff to work on your mistake!
But there is no OFF position on the genius switch. I used an air-powered grinder, as well as a cordless model, to do some serious artwork. It bordered on plastic-surgical-quality stuff. Basically, my waterer got a facelift. Drooping lines were lifted. Excess sag was carved away. Everything was carved and filed until it started looking like the face of an early-twenty-something again. Finally, after a lot of work with the grinders and a straight edge for squareness checks, the side access door was popped into position. It held. Only minimal hammer work was required. Okay, it was majorly minimal, but it worked.
Perhaps I'll shut off that waterer during the winter and only use it when the temperature is above 50. Meanwhile, I'm going to switch to not plugging in the engine on the big screamin' diesel truck this winter. If it gets too cold to start, I'll just move the new Porta-Vesuvius into position and crank some thermals at it. Problem solved.
What could possibly go wrong?

Anderson Silva Still Grabs UFC Attention, Even on 'Vacation'
Montreal – As Georges St-Pierre marked a triumphant return to the UFC on Saturday night with a resounding victory against Carlos Condit to keep his welterweight crown, there was one man who fans could not take their eyes off - literally. As the Canadian weathered the challenge from the brave Condit, on the PPV broadcast fans could watch in the bottom corner of their screens a permanently fixed camera on the all too familiar face of Anderson Silva, who was ringside for the fight.
Just a reminder - Anderson Silva is number one. He's used to it. He's the number one middleweight, number one pound-for-pound fighter and arguably the number one fighter of all time. But when it comes to the UFC, ever since it's inception, the only number one there has ever been is Dana White and the company.
No fighter has come close to being top dog, if not for lack of trying, so it was big news when Anderson Silva had this to say at the beginning of last week.
"I'm on vacation from fighting," Silva told Brazil-based web site Tatame. "I (will) just come back at the end of next year."
No Anderson Silva until the end of 2013? Surely not?
A fighter at the peak of his powers but also nearing the end of his career is taking a year long break from a sport that could give him one last payday in a superfight? Seems a strange decision. That is if you take Anderson Silva's words at face value, which fight fans simply shouldn't.
Instead fans should see them as a powerplay by the most powerful of fighters, trying to stake a claim in his own destiny - a destiny that is traditionally forged by every other fighter's boss - Dana White.
Fans merely have to cast their minds back to the likes of Randy Couture and others who thought they could stand up to the organization and forge their own paths within.
Everyone remembers how Couture, the UFC Heavyweight champion in the early 2000s, lost the title, then reinvented himself as a light heavyweight, then lost the title again, before returning to heavyweight. Couture held out for a year, wrangled over financials, seeking better pay until finally losing to Brock Lesnar in a superfight. Or what about Tito Ortiz, a star of the UFC in it's fledgling days, who wrangled with Dana White over the issue of his back surgery not being paid for by the UFC, ultimately calling power plays that did not come off because he did not have a belt. Yes, he lost too.
In the UFC belts mean something. Unlike in boxing, there are very few of them to go around so they carry a lot of cache. In fact so do losses. A loss can mean a scramble for an indefinite number of fights before you reach the same spot you were in last time. For Silva, the undisputed middleweight king, he has the belt firmly secured around his waist and has yet to be beaten - an enviable position that few UFC fighters have ever found themselves in. So at the age of 37, Silva is perhaps starting to look after himself, stand up, and find a way to bank as much money as possible while protecting himself before his inevitable retirement.
For Dana White this has meant a struggle. Try as hard as he may, White will probably not succeed in getting Silva in a showdown with light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones. Silva has said as much. The size difference is too much and Silva does not want a beatdown, though he has not said as much.
But Georges St-Pierre, the man he was so close to on Saturday night, is a different proposition. White has hinted at a superfight at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium. It would mean huge money for the company and for both fighters. But in Silva, perhaps, White is facing a guy who wants more money than before, perhaps deservedly so. Silva can argue it was him who faced Chael Sonnen with a rib injury that nearly ended his unbeaten streak. The same Silva who took a fight against Stephan Bonnar on very short notice to help his company out from a potential card cancellation.
Silva may say he won't fight until the end of next year as he is on vacation, but you can be sure his trip to Montreal on Saturday was not part of that. He may have been there to see the sights, but they were mainly of a shaved Canadian welterweight kind - and only because Dana White had asked nicely. In sports things change quickly, and in the UFC even quicker. What Anderson Silva does, and what he says may well be the difference between black and white. Don't be surprised if the Brazilian's vacation gets cut short or he makes a detour to Arlington.
In the end, Dana White usually gets his way, and for fans fans that can only be a good thing.

Bottom played by Will Mannering
A Midsummer Night's Dream (2010)
Written by: William Shakespeare
Will Mannering returned to the Globe to play Bottom in the 2010 production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. William's previous work for Shakespeare's Globe includes: Love's Labour's Lost, We the People, In Extremis, Antony & Cleopatra, A Midsummer Night's Dream (2009 touring production).
latest updates
Hello from Wardour Castle in Salisbury!
I played Bottom in the previous tour and I found that reviving the play was different than other rehearsals periods. I've revived productions before, and because you know what the show can be it can be frustrating having to start from scratch all over again.
Dumfries is an old industrial town, and it's where Robert Burns spent most of his life.

Ports: Marmaris Cruise Port
Situated on the southwest of Turkey's Turquoise Coast, the beach resort of Marmaris is one of the region's most sophisticated. It combines a pumping nightlife with an historic Old Town area where winding streets and captivating architecture offer endless inspiration.
It's long, sprawling, pebble beach stretches along the coast, dotted with sun loungers where you can soak up the Mediterranean sun or participate in water sports activities that will keep adrenaline seekers occupied. It is flanked by a palm-fringed promenade where countless bars and cafes allow you to relax, wine and dine with the crystal clear waters just steps away.
Marmaris' location on the Turkish Riviera makes it the perfect base for excursions into the spectacular surrounding countryside. Explore the nearby ancient ruins of Caunos and Knidos which are draped in history, or embark on an off-road jeep safari through small traditional villages to the authentic Turkish town of Mugla. It's also possible to visit the stunning travertine pools of Pamukkale on a day trip from Marmaris or go on an adventurous white water rafting trip along the Dalaman River.
You can't visit Marmaris without taking a cruise to explore its hidden coves, beaches and offshore islands. Visit beautiful Paradise Island and the coastal towns of Turunç and Icmeler, or venture further to explore the UNESCO World Heritage listed citadel of Rhodes, just across the border in Greece. With so much on offer, it's no wonder Marmaris is one of the Turkish Riviera's most popular beach resorts.
Spend your days swimming, island hopping and visiting ancient ruins, then party until the early morning hours at Marmaris' endless choice of bars and nightclubs. There are also plenty of excellent restaurants in Marmaris where you can sample traditional Turkish cuisine, as well as western favorites. With a warm, Mediterranean climate, Marmaris can be pleasant year round, but it's in the height of the sizzling summer that it really transforms into one of Turkey's premier party destinations.
We offer a range of different Marmaris shore excursions and itineraries, but if you don't find what you are looking for, please contact us directly so we can customize something just for you!

Standish City Council in no-win situation… again
The state of the economy in Arenac County has put Standish's City Council in a tight situation time after time after time this year.
Making a choice on whether or not to waive Mistequay Corporation's property taxes is no exception.
After getting the news of Standish Max closing, the city is facing the loss of 45-percent of its annual water and sewer revenue. Earlier this year, the city opted to waive an 18 or more employee stipulation for Competitive Machining to save the few jobs remaining at the industrial manufacturer that continues to search for lending and contracts, even though the city could have collected about $20,000 in abated taxes from the company. Even more recently, the city agreed to grant the Migizi Corporation lower water and sewer rates than in-city residents to close the deal on upcoming developments of Migizi, an economic developer for the Saginaw-Chippewa Indian Tribe, and to ensure more jobs in the area.
Now, the city, if it chooses to waive Mistequay's property taxes, will lose about $13,000 per year in uncollected taxes. What will become of Mistequay if the taxes aren't waived?
That's the problem. The company has already downsized over the last couple years and now employs a much smaller workforce than it ever has and if it doesn't get relief, may have to close up shop, adding 31 people to the ranks of the Arenac County unemployed and no doubt stinging small business owners.
City Council is darned if they do, danged if they don't; caught between a rock and hard place.
The governing body of the city has been flexible to date. Whether or not it can afford to continue to be flexible is yet to be seen, but residents of the city should be careful not to demonize city council after its decision on Mistequay's property taxes – whether it waives them to help people keep their jobs or doesn't waive them because the city is drowning financially.
It isn't an easy decision to make and regardless of council's choice, someone will be angry.
But who likes making tough decisions over and over again? Who wants to hold the fate of somebody's job in their hands multiple times in the first six months of the year? Who wants to choose sides when the repercussions aren't fully clear?

Green with Envy
Other green teas are envious of today's fave, I'm sure of it! Having made and kept (so far) my New Year's resolution to switch out coffee for tea, I've tried a whole lotta green tea over the past week or so, and this is far and away my favorite.
Eden's Hojicha (roasted green tea) is not at all grassy like some green teas can be. It has a rich deep flavor that is slightly nutty and smoky and I can't get enough. Plus, it's organic, so that's nice. Whether you resolved to drink more tea this year or not, this stuff is sure to find a warm cozy spot in your heart… and fill you with antioxidants to boot. Perfect for a Wednesday pick-me-up!

This post is perfect for me. I started drinking a cup of green tea every morning about a month ago, and once the box that I have in the cabinet is empty I wanted to try a new brand. If I can find this one near me, I'll definitely try it! Happy New Year!!

PSN: StarmongusseStarmongoose isn't allowed because it has "mongo" in it.Probably the most out of date swear filter. Who the hell says "mongo" any more.
Had to change my XBox name.mygrimreality1 is the new one. They tried to give me GristlyCracker1 as my name! That is SO awesome. I was very tempted to keep it.My PSN name is GrimMrMorton. I think. I'll double check, and change it here is necessary.
