From the St. Albans Daily Messenger newspaper dated June 19, 1856 is the following:
"Melancholy Affair
A sad affair occurred in Franklin on Monday last which resulted in the death of Mr. Erastus Cross. It appears that Mr. Cross, while milking, was accosted by a Frenchman (the name we have been unable to learn) with whom he had an unsettled account, who demanded an instant settlement. Mr. Cross refused to settle then, and after some words had passed between them told the Frenchman to be off or he would throw the milking stool at him. The Frenchman immediately seized a club and dealt Mr. Cross a violent blow on the head which caused his death almost instantly. When the Frenchman saw what he had done, he manifested much sorrow, declaring that he did not intend to kill Mr. Cross. He gave himself up without resistance, and is lodged in jail."

Erastus CROSS was born abt. August 02, 1804 in Windham, Windham Co., Connecticut, married Louisa Maria LAMKIN on October 14, 1827 at Highgate, Franklin Co., Vermont. They had nine children. My interest in him stems from the fact that he was a sibling of my direct line, Lucy. Lucy CROSS married William JAQUAYS, and he is one of my "brick walls." Erastus Cross was my 4th great-uncle.
One hundred years after the below letter was written, there were three women named Barbara who found each other online because we were working on the same line, the CROSS line, at the same time. There were also two Martha's interested and adding all that they could. Barbara R. has the original letter, and we all got copies to transcribe. Whenever we emailed one another, we always had to use our last initial, it was hectic trying to remember who wrote what.
Transcribing this letter and trying to figure out who the people were was one of my top ten highlights in my genealogy research capers. The women mentioned in the below letter lived in Canada, and were on a mission to confront the man who killed Erastus CROSS. I love the last line in the letter, where Stella wrote, "Burn up this letter." So glad nobody listened. (Note: The all caps were put in by us, as a way to catch the names, so I decided to leave them in.)
Letter from Stella Cross RILEY to her brother, Herbert Nelson CROSS, October 30, 1899.
"Dear brother,
Mother said you wanted me to write about grandfather death etc. I could not write any sooner as mother has had a severe cold and been quite sick. She calls it the grip and I guess it is. She has not been able to do much, consequently I have had it to do. I was sick in bed two days myself and between us we have had a miserable time. I've had a glorious time dewey day and we have had to pay for it. I knew better than to do what I did but the rest danced around in such an excited state that I caught the fever. It was funny to see Aunt HELEN. Every one gathered there and she informed each one that she was afraid her food would not last but it did. KATE told me that her mother was certainly crazy and Aunt HELEN says KATE is. I suppose mother told you all about it, so I won't repeat. I had a very pleasant time while I was in Enosburg [Vermont] only the weather was very unpleasant, only a few pleasant days. LUCY and I went to Franklin [Vermont]one day, visited a Mrs. HILL (own cousin to father) and called on a Mrs. SOULES another cousin. Mrs. HILL is a nice appearing woman of about sixty I should say. Her mother and our grandfather were brother and sister. She told me grandfather (ERASTUS) was as handsome man as she ever see. Tall, well built, and dignified in appearance. From her I also learned that they were "well to do" the first years of their married life but after that law suit grandfather got in to (you remember father telling about it, he lost all the money he had saved,) he was discontented and moved from place to place in hopes to get rich too fast. She said he was respected wherever he lived but just as soon as he got to doing well would go somewhere else. While in Franklin I went to the house where they lived a long time, a pretty brick house. I also visited the Academy where father went to school. We stayed with Mrs. HILL all night and the next day after we had made many arrangements for the recital we started for home, stopping en route to the place where grandfather was killed. The woman living there allowed us to go over the house and we went in to the room where he was laid out. It is a pretty farm and a large one, it is about five miles from Enosburg on the road to Franklin. We next drove a short distance to where NELSON MARCO lived but did not find him at home. However I was determined to see him, so for days we planned to go again but every day it was rainy and cloudy. LUCY went all over town to get some one had a camera to go with me so we could take his picture and finally we got a young fellow and the day before I started for home we drove out there and was fortunate enough to find him out in the yard. We stopped and asked him to direct us to Franklin. He did not look at all as I expected he would, I had an idea he looked ugly, but on the contrary he was a pleasant looking well preserved old man. I should say he was past 75. After a few minutes conversation, in which he was all smiles, I asked him pointing to the farm where grandfather was killed, who lived there, he told us, then I said "who owns the place? he replied, "Mr. BEATTY old Mr. BEATTY, he owns lots of farms or he did once. I hear he giveim all to he boys." I looked at him closely and in awful tones (so Lucy said) remarked. Then that is the place where ERASTUS CROSS was killed! The smiles died away from his face and in their place was such a frightened look wild expression that LUCY gave me a warning look. He stammered tried make an attempt to speak three times and finally succeeded in saying, "Mr. BEATHE, he owns that farm, you know Mr. BEATHE, he lives in Enosburg, he lived over there a good many years ago, he" "Seeing you lived here so long, I interrupted you must of know Mr. Cross, the man who was murdered over there, didn't you? A[h] that he muttered something but we could not understand what it was but that he was greatly distressed, was very evident. he was slowly backing to the house so I continued. My name is CROSS and I am ERASTUS CROSS'S granddaughter. With out any exaggeration he turned as pale as death, his hands moved from his face to the fence where he was leaning in a painfully nervous manner as he gasped out. You must mean a great granddaughter. "No." I said, granddaughter. He again moved toward his house stopped and said, "seeing you been so bold?" to ask me questions I going to ask you if you know what has become of ALBERT CROSS." Of course I told him he was dead and that I was his daughter. I also told him that grandmother was queer after she see her husband killed and finally went crazy and died. We thought we would make it as interesting for him as we could. I was going to tell him we knew who he was, but the old man looked so I hadn't the courage so I just said that we are going down to the place of the murder and find out all we can and drove away.
LUCY didn't say a word. Said she didn't dare to. The fellow took a snap shot of him but LUCY has not written me whether it was a success or not. He also took a picture of the house (grandfather's) and I don't see why she hasn't sent it. The house where MARCO lives (all alone) is very small, poor house. We took down some of his conversation. But he talked broken, same thing as Greenwood does only not as much so. They say is afraid of strangers and that he won't go out the BEATTY farm after dark. He has a daughter living in St. Albans, she married a Mr. WOOD. He, MARCO, is spoken of as a man with an ugly temper.
We had a pleasant call on Mr. BEATTY and he seemed glad to have met me. I took down his story and send to you, also a copy of the life of E. CROSS and I want you to return them. I am going to write them over again when I get time. This Mr. BEATTY is rich and respected. He does not seem to want to say much about the trial, but he did say that DAN WHITE was paid quite a sum of money to testify as he did. You see the body was removed before the coroner got there, so he could tell what he pleased. SANFORD HALL said his father was paid for testifying that grandfather was a quarrelsome man, and hard to get along with. That law suit he got in to was brought up against him. I also learned that the State Attorney did not seem to take very much interest in the case. Father was the only child who was there at the time (except Nelson, who was a very young boy) who could be of any assistance and for some reason he didn't do anything about it. There were witnesses who testified that MARCO said he would "kill CROSS if he asked him for his pay." You know he owed grandfather, Aunt ELIZA said that he drawed his wood for him to keep him from freezing the winter before and was mad because grandfather wanted his pay. Here is another story I heard. There were two rich farmers in the vicinity, a Mr. HAMMOND and this Mr. BEATTY, the former did not like Mr. B. and tried all he could to hurt him. He advised grandfather not to go on his farm, said he would get into trouble if he did, etc., etc. After he did take the farm, he done everything he could to bother him. Aunt H. said all of them had lived there a year. Mr. HAMMOND came over one night and asked for g.father if he was going to stay another year. G. father told him that he was, that he liked Mr. B. and that he had treated him square." "Well," said H. "if you stay here you will be sorry." A. HALL heard this conversation. MARCO lived on this man farm and he, MARCO had told that Mr. H. had told him not to pay CROSS. Not to work for him. The people up there seem to think that the murder was the result of this enmity between HAMMOND & BEATTY. It seems that H. was greatly rejoiced when "Mr. B ['s] word about the position of the body" did not go with the jury. To sum it all up, DAN WHITE swore that he heard the quarrel, see grandfather take up the milking stool run after MARCO and just as he was going to strike him, he took up the sledge stake and struck the fatal blow. Mr. BEATTY told that WHITE had told him the same night of the murder that M. hit him as he turned leave him and that the position of the body as he found it confirmed this. Grandfather had been sick for a week or more and had not been able to do much work. Grandmother tried not to have him milk that night and he said he would just milk the kicking cow because WHALE? couldn't and then come in and go to bed. The day I was to give my recital Aunt ELIZA went with me and we stayed with Mrs. HILL and Mrs. SOULS three days. One afternoon Mrs. SOULS' son drove me to Pigeon Hill and I visited grandfather's grave. He is buried in his sister's lot. They have a good monument. One thing seems strange to me, grandfather was a Mason and they were going to bury him, pay all expenses and had even got the grave dug in Franklin when father and MRS. WELLS, grandfather's sister, objected and insisted that he be buried in Pigeon Hill. Father would not let the Masons bury him because of something had had to do with the lawsuit years before. Mrs. SOULS said you promised to send her one of your pictures when you was there and that she wanted you to send one now. I am going up to Enosburg in Jan. if nothing happens to get up a entertainment and give a recital for the Ladies Improvement Society. If you want one of MARCO pictures let me know.
I am getting subscriptions for a paper (will send Francis a copy and if I can get 33 names, I can get a bed. Mother is all excited and she is going to ask a few to take it. The relatives are responding and I guess we can get the required number of names. Would you just as soon ask the man in the office if he will take it for his wife. Some are going to give us two subscriptions. You must take it. It is only 25 a year. You can tell the man that the club is being raised by a friend. I intended to have copied this letter, but I haven't got the time. I guess it is rather mixed for I have been writing it for the last three days. The children have been here and all has bothered, Mother is quite a little better tonight. She is greatly interested in this Vanderbilt will. One would think to hear her ask me question that I was a second Depew in the family. I forgot to say that grandmother has got a pretty monument Uncle JUDSON, NELSON and grandfather names are on it. At Mrs. SOULS I see a brass candle stick that JOSEPH CROSS' g.father used to have, also a chair he used to have. Mrs. S. says when she is dead I can have the candlestick. It is bed time. Mother is reading David Harum and hasn't been to sleep this eve. Guess she is not going to live?? Lovingly, STELLA
Burn up this letter.
[Sunday?] I heard just now that David Anderson was just alive."
Note: I realize the letter is hard to follow (and it is long, 10 pages), but since it gave me much pleasure transcribing it and placing the people, I wanted to share it. And, maybe somebody else in blog land shares this ancestry.

Apple is offering trade-ins, credit card rebates and discounts on iPhones to make them more affordable for its Indian customers.
Students can trade-in their iPhones for $144, while non-students will be given a $130 credit, according to ZDNet. Those buying an iPhone with an American Express get a 10 percent rebate for buying an iPhone 4, 4S or 5 before June 10.
There were an estimated 2.5 million iPhones in India at the end of 2013, and an analyst said that the new discounts are likely to spur "significant growth." Not surprisingly, Apple's chief competition, Samsung, launched a 15 percent rebate in India last month.
U.S. & World
The developing world was always going to be a challenge for the pricey Apple, a company that seems to dislike discounts or sales. However, the only way it can offer its wares to the developing world may be by offering discounts and rebates, something its competition is only too willing to do.

Is Pine Tar a Demon or an Equalizer?
"It's in every bag in the big leagues. We have it everywhere. If you get rid of it, there are going to be hitters getting plucked left and right. When you have adverse weather games, extremely hot, cold, windy humidity;s crazy, sometimes as a pitcher you can't feel the ball, that's no good for the guy (at bat). – former Tampa Bay Rays Pitching Coach Chuck Hernandez
I'm being to feel that pine tar is a lot more prevalent and in wide-spread use than any of us can imagine. One of the most important assets to a pitcher no matter if he is a starter or a reliever is feeling a consistent and constant grip on the baseball. There have been no reports or experiments conducted to see if pine tar does give you an extra inch of drop, velocity or even control, but even if it is all in the pitcher's mind only that he has more consistency because of it, isn't that a good thing for the game.
Makes sense that pitcher's might dabble and spot a few dots of pine tar on their mitts during rain, sleet or snow, and humid and hot temperature do produce more sweat and moisture that could effect not only the grip, but final destination of every pitch. Seems like pine tar ( to me) might have a few helpful benefits to keep batters upright and safer at the plate. Former Rays TV Announcer and St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Joe Mcgrane said he has used pine tar before for it's gripping properties while current Rays TV Announcer and former Rays/ Indians pitcher Brian Anderson says he never touched the stuff.
I remember more than once pitchers reaching into the Rays Bullpen bag for a green leather sleeve with a darkened element on it, but I never associated it with pine tar. Even though there has never been an adequate test or study to show if pine tar or a substance of that nature effects the flight of the ball, it seems more viable and controllable than other elements that can be applied to a baseball and masked without the darkened spots. In earlier baseball history Vaseline and saliva were commonplace, but I wonder if things like suntan lotion. Extra hair gel or possibly even leaving shampoo or conditioner in your hair pre-game could bring about the same results.
In the same article Hernandez tells of the plight of former Detroit Tiger starter Kenny Rogers and his unfortunate pine tar incident that played out during the 2006 World Series when Rogers had some pine tar on his hands when he took the hill. Hernandez stated the aging hurler did not use the element to produce more sink or doctor the ball, he used it so he could get a better grip on the ball and not lose control of his pitches.
In this case, rival Manger Tony La Russa handled it a bit more classier than Washington Nationals Manager Davey Johnson did recently. La Russa sent a message through the grapevine (Third Base Coach?) Telling Rogers to clean it up, clean it off. It was never made into the huge issue and polarizing issue it has in this recent Rays and Nationals series. Hernandez made a valid point that since they (Cardinals) beat the (Tigers) the issue was swept away without blossoming into a full blown incident.
You have to think MLB Home Plate Umpires reject a few baseball every game that might have hints or flashes of a substance, but do not call attention to it as pitchers "clean up" their act before it gets overly noticed or goes to extremes. I can tell you I'm going to be a bit more curious when an Umpire rejects a ball from now on as possibly having more than scrape mark or a darkened bat mark on the ball.
I'm not looking to re-write MLB Rule 8.02, but Peralta did not touch the ball to his glove with the pine tar applied to it, the substance was within the finger area of the glove, thus not in direct contact with the ball. Still it was a violation, and a punishment Peralta might just be in the mood to appeal the punishment, possibly being a last thorn in the side of Nat's Manager Johnson in this last game of the Rays and Nat's InterLeague dance. Wonder if Peralta heads to the mound tonight if the "boo-birds" will become a bit louder and crazier?
Maybe it is time for the hierarchy of Major League Baseball to dig a bit deeper into this situation, possibly poll current MLB roster pitchers with full immunity to discuss the issue and possibly find a viable solution everyone can not only live with, but promote safe usage and rules governing it's application especially in adverse weather conditions. Just because MLB Umpires know it might be used by pitchers doesn't mean they "look the other way", it might not be as prevalent in everyday pitching situations thus a blind eye is given on occasion.
I guess the use of pine tar will be one of those burning issues for a while some consider it in baseball's "gray area", and other see it as blatant cheating or dismissal of the rules of the game. No matter what your opinion, maybe this last statement by Hernandez might open a few eyes that maybe pine tar has an application in the game, but within set limitations or application.
" I don't see anything in pine tar that creates an unfair advantage for a pitcher. You make a big deal of it, and all of a sudden guys are going to start, as we call it in the business, pitching naked. More balls would get away from pitchers, and now you're going to be fighting. We're going to have more beanball brawls than ever."
Don't know about you, but I hated getting pelted with a 90+ MPH pitch somewhere on my body while trying to hit that small white sphere. Plus I usually did apply a bit of pine tar to my bat…for a better grip.

Johnny Manziel leaves Manning camp early because of illness; will attend SEC event
Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel went home early from the Manning Passing Academy because he was sick, according to a report.
Manziel participated in some activities, but after missing meeting and practice sessions early Saturday because of an illness, he left the camp, ESPN.com's Chris Mortensen reported.
HAYES: Manziel only has Johnny Look at Me to blame for troubles
"Johnny Manziel did participate in some activities in the 2013 Manning Passing Academy as a college counselor/coach,†according to a statement from the camp. "After missing and being late for practice assignments, Johnny explained that he had been feeling ill. Consequently, we agreed that it was in everyone's best interest for him to go home a day early.â€
Reports surfaced this weekend that Archie Manning sent Manziel home himself because of partying, but camp officials told Mortensen that those reports were not true.
Even Peyton Manning came to Manziel's defense.
"I enjoyed meeting Johnny,†Peyton Manning said. "I can remember a 20-year-old Eli (Manning) missing a practice and catching some flak. We always have counselors who leave early. Johnny was great with the campers for the time he was here. He had to leave early. I wish him the best and I want him to come back as a counselor next year.â€
The camp, held at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, La., showcases some of the top pro and college quarterbacks and receivers in the country.
Despite leaving the camp, Manziel will attend SEC Media Days this week as originally planned, according to Kate Hairopoulos of the Dallas Morning News. Manziel is one of three player representatives from Texas A&M scheduled to address the media Wednesday morning.
Texas A&M confirms Johnny Manziel will still attend SEC media days on Wednesday in Hoover, Ala. as scheduled. (cue the circus...)— Kate Hairopoulos (@khairopoulos) July 14, 2013

Acromegaly is a hormonal disorder in which the pituitary gland
produces too much growth hormone. This disorder causes abnormal enlargement of
bones and tissues, noticeably in the hands and feet, which occurs gradually
over several years.
Enlarged bones in the nose and mouth may cause a large tongue and
widely spaced teeth and may lead to sleep apnea. Bone and cartilage growth may
lead to arthritis. People with acromegaly can also develop diabetes, high blood
pressure, and other problems.
The excess production of growth hormone usually is caused by a
tumor of the pituitary gland. Acromegaly is usually treated with medicine,
surgery, or radiation treatment to the tumor.

This afternoon I did my RootsTech 2012 Copyright for Genealogists presentation. Presenting at RootsTech (and other conventions) is interesting to say the least.

Princess BATMAN! 2
20 comments:
- Pica said...
I love them all. I can't choose my favorite. How about a team of Princess Bat-girls?
- September 13, 2011 at 12:15 AM
- Natalie Decker said...
I love it! I like A's outfit and Pig-tails the best! I'm with you on the dress but Princess Batman wouldn't want anything tooo Princess-y. Unless she was going to a ball of course...
- September 13, 2011 at 12:29 AM
- Q said...
I like B's boots and mask. Also C's hair and D's cute little heart-embellished cross strap.
- September 13, 2011 at 1:24 AM
They're all so fun, but I really love B, in its entirety...well, maybe with the addition of pigtails, because pigtails are awesome :)
- September 13, 2011 at 5:33 AM
- Nathan said...
Hmm very varied picks so far. How about crowns? What crown works best?
- September 13, 2011 at 5:50 AM
- Katya said...
I like crowns B and D. (C doesn't work without a black background.)
- September 13, 2011 at 6:02 AM
- Chris said...
Tough choices! I'm going with the crowd here on the pigtails--Awesome!
Overall my favorite is A, but to mix and match: A's helmet and dress, B's crown and boots, D's sleeves and cross-strap.
- September 13, 2011 at 6:51 AM
- Heather Hoyt said...
B's helmet, D's crown, boots and skirt, C;s shirt (though I don't dig the heart).
- September 13, 2011 at 7:40 AM
- edith said...
I really like C. For some reason it put me in mind of Vin from the Mistborn trilogy. Tough! But elegant.
- September 13, 2011 at 9:04 AM
- Alysa Stewart said...
I pretty much love D (esp sturdy leggings, cross strap, tiara), but I miss the puff sleeves on C. I think the puff sleeves are fan-tastic. Could be hiding anything up them. Could be parachutes in disguise. I don't like the full skirt on C though.
- September 13, 2011 at 9:15 AM
- Clint C. said...
How about C with a high leg-slit to show the great D leggings and add a downplayed A pugnacious mask.
- September 13, 2011 at 9:41 AM
- Candi Criddle said...
These are great!
My kids, a 7 year old boy and a 4 year old girl like D the best. Mostly because it looks like she has a sword on her back.
- September 13, 2011 at 10:29 AM
- John Waverly said...
Awesome! Awesome!
I like A's pigtails.
Of all the masks I like B's the best, but I would lose the bandanna ends. It makes me think too much of pirate and not batman.
I like D's sleeves and shoulders.
I wonder what she'd look like with a cape? That might be a lot of black though.
When I think Batman I think utility belt (other than the bat symbol of course). I'm not big on A's belt, but none of the others have belts. Maybe something with a heart buckle or something?
I like D's leggings, but the whole outfit doesn't strike me as princess-y. How about combining the skirt from B? Or the puff sleeves from C?
I also like the gold ring. It's a nice touch.
I do like all the heart-shaped things. It's fun and a great counterpoint to the dark, batman theme.
I guess I had a lot of opinions, but you asked. :) I think any of these would be fun. Maybe you could have her use all of them and have to decide what she's going to wear. Or trying on a bunch of stuff. I'm looking forward to see what happens.
- September 13, 2011 at 12:51 PM
- jw said...
OK, I'm going to stick with the pigtail parade because they're the best for a young superhero. And I like the outfit of D.
One beef, though. I don't think that she's Batman's great x 10 grandmother, but rather his great x10 grandDAUGHTER in an alternate universe. She still lives in Gotham City, but somewhere along the line they got mixed up in royalty. Because every little girl would relate better to being a granddaughter more than a grandmother.
And on a side note, she has an adorable nose, so the mask should keep that visible.
- September 13, 2011 at 1:32 PM
I really like the dress on A but maybe a smaller belt, the hair on c and D, the disconnected sleeves and the shoulder strap on D, the mask and tiara on C, and the boots on B. Maybe you should add a cape.
- September 13, 2011 at 3:03 PM
are you ready?
i think she should have A's outfit but with a grey belt, with a bat/princess symbol( don't you have a symbol yet?) she'd have C's hair and mask but B's crown. the gloves would be A's but with widow's peaks on the ends like C's. And C's skirt would be made into an awesome swirly cape behind her.
try it, it will rock
- September 13, 2011 at 3:13 PM
- Abigail said...
I really like the boots and mask on version B.
- September 13, 2011 at 3:39 PM
My personal favorite is B. I think that the dress should have shorter sleeves, for greater ease in fighting crime.
- September 13, 2011 at 4:10 PM
- Helene said...
I ADORE C's hair, sleeves, and eye-mask, but I like the crown and leggings from D. And does D have bracelets, too? Princess Batman definitely needs some jewellery. As they say, diamonds are a girl's best friend!
Oh, I'm enjoying this too much! :D
I'll love her whatever design you choose.
- September 13, 2011 at 4:14 PM
- Krystal said...
I like D's outfit and B's mask. As for crowns, B or D works. Oh, and pigtails. Pigtails are perfect for her.
- September 13, 2011 at 8:14 PM

Getting to the Core of F135 Assembly
Pratt & Whitney Communications took a trip to Middletown, Conn., to shadow two Pratt & Whitney Assembly Technicians, Brian Plesz and Alan Hussey, for a closer look at what it's really like to work on an F135 engine. The pair worked on F135 engine, specifically assembling the core of the engine. A varied assembly sequence engages the technicians' experience and interest as they work on anything from tubes, to bearing compartments to stators.
Plesz has been with Pratt & Whitney for almost 8 years and noted that the process has come a long way in a short amount of time. Hussey, who has been with Pratt & Whitney for 39 years said, "It is really awesome to be given the privilege to work with this engine line. It is one of the most technologically advanced engines in the world."
7:45 a.m. – The technicians, Brian and Alan, arrive and check the computer at their workstation for instructions on their required tasks. They determine that they will be working on the core of the engine. Each work module is broken down by sequence and they will start with sequence 10 which requires the installation of a buffer air tube.
8:00 a.m. – Once the installation is complete, Brian swipes his Pratt & Whitney badge at the computer to acknowledge that the work has been completed. Alan and Brian now move on to sequence 11 to install the number two support.
8:10 a.m. – The technicians gather the kit necessary for the next installation. All parts come in a kit wrapped in plastic that has separate compartments to hold each part. Each kit holds exactly the right type and number of parts. After opening the kit, the technicians verify the kit contents and proceed to assemble the washers and bolts together. Next, they turn on a light above the workstation to signal for an inspector to review the prep work.
8:20 a.m. – The inspector approves the work and allows Brian and Alan to continue to the next step.
8:22 a.m. – Brian picks up the necessary part (an installation part that will eventually be removed) off of a cart at his work station and scans a barcode to record the serial number on the part they are preparing to install.
8:25 a.m. – Before this piece can be installed, a heater is added to the top of the engine to expand the hole it will fit into. The tooling and heaters, identified in the work instructions, are located nearby the engine to ensure that the technicians are able to move quickly and efficiently between tasks.
8:45 a.m. – The component is now heated and expanded and the mating part is inserted. Brian and Alan torque the installed part, standing 180° from each other at all times to ensure the inner and outer diameters remain even.
8:55 a.m. – Alan continues to torque the part while Brian secures it. Once completed, they measure the installed part on the engine to verify it is seated.
9:30 a.m. – Upon returning from a short break, Brian and Alan turn the light on again to signal for the inspector.
9:45 a.m. – The inspector arrives and provides approval to continue with the job.
10:00 a.m. – Once the sequence is complete, the inspector provides final approval. Brian enters data from this sequence into the computer to record that the job is complete.
10:15 a.m. – Moving onto sequence 13, the technicians use another heater on a different part of the engine and wait until it reaches optimum temperature. This will help with the installation of a carbon seal.
10:45 a.m. – The carbon seal has been installed and after the inspector is signaled, it is checked and approved.
10:50 a.m. – All external crevices that are open and lead to the bearing area are capped off. Brian and Alan check the core of the engine and verify that the second and third compartments are sealed well.
11:15 a.m. – Dry ice is put on the compressor stator to cool it off before it is inserted into the engine.
11:25 a.m. – Now cool enough, the compressor stator is installed and secured to the engine using nuts and an air gun.
11:30 a.m. – After a productive morning, Brian and Alan clean up their workstation and break for lunch. They take pride in their work on the engine especially knowing that a pilot will rely on their expertise to deliver a dependable engine.
This document has been publically released. The story has been approved for public release by the F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) and through the Pratt & Whitney 3702 clearance for release process. The JPO approval code is JSF13-897.

If you work around horses long enough, you'll be handling ones that have lameness, diarrhea, abortions, skin diseases, and even neurologic signs. Our first concern is generally for the horse's well-being, and the last for our own health, since, after all, who gets sick from a horse?
Zoonotic diseases are those that are transmissible between animals and people. This article is going to address only selected diseases that humans can obtain from horses by direct or indirect contact (see sidebar "Infectious or Contagious?" below).
Rabies is a viral disease transmitted via the saliva of a rabid animal and usually passed on through a bite or scratch. Infected saliva contacting mucous membranes or a break in the skin constitutes an exposure, as does direct contact with nervous system tissue (necropsy or laboratory exposure). The disease is virtually 100% fatal in domestic animals and people (only two people have been documented to have partially recovered from the disease).
While annually about 40 to 50 equine rabies cases are documented in the United States and Puerto Rico, it is a disease that warrants precaution since the clinical signs can vary from colic to lameness to neurologic disease, all which progress to death. It is always prudent to consider any horse with neurological signs as being possibly rabid (isolate and avoid all contact, especially with his mouth and saliva), and consult a veterinarian promptly.
In 2006, a horse housed at the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration developed neurological signs and was diagnosed with rabies after euthanasia (TheHorse.com article #7589). This resulted in the Tennessee Department of Health, with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), attempting to contact 150,000 people who were at the event about possible rabies exposure (article #7611 on TheHorse.com). Just one rabid horse can cause an enormous response (see sidebar, "Rabies!").
Out of more than 2,400 different types of zoonotic Salmonella bacteria, just one is transmitted only between people; the rest have animals involved. S. typhimurium is a serovar commonly detected in people, and it also is commonly found in horses.
Salmonellosis in horses causes diarrhea, septicemia, and localized infections (joints, eyes, etc.). People get exposed by fecal-oral contact (generally due to ineffective hand washing) or oral contact with contaminated materials. Any horse or foal with diarrhea should be isolated, and proper protective clothing should be worn when handling the animal, with further precautions assessed by a veterinarian.
Cryptosporidium parvum is a protozoal intestinal parasite that can cause significant diarrhea in humans and young calves. Foals have been shown to shed C. parvum in feces, but generally they don't appear sick, and people in contact with affected foals have developed cryptosporidiosis (the disease associated with this parasite). Therefore, good hygiene, such as thorough hand washing, should be practiced when handling foals.
The sudden death of a horse gets the owner's attention immediately, and so do colic and severe diarrhea leading to death. If blood comes from the nose, mouth, or other orifices of the dead animal, the owner should prevent other animals from accessing the carcass, avoid all contact with the carcass, and call a veterinarian or state health official. The cause of death might be the spore-forming bacteria Bacillus anthracis that causes illness and death in livestock in several U.S. areas. However, unusual weather conditions, floods, and alkaline soils can potentially stir up spores deep in the soil and cause anthrax cases in other geographic areas. Anthrax is usually rapidly fatal in horses, so it's unlikely there would be time to treat horses with clinical signs, but you could potentially treat suspected cases very early on or prophylactically treat exposed horses. Special diagnostic sampling techniques and disposal methods are necessary for suspected anthrax cases; in some jurisdictions it might be a reportable disease.
People can become ill from dead animals by dermal exposure (through the skin, called cutaneous anthrax) to infected animals, tissues, and soils; inhalation anthrax is possible if spores are aerosolized, which can happen while processing livestock hides or wool.
Rhodococcus equi
Rhodococcus equi is commonly found in the soil and in feces of horses and other herbivores. This Gram-positive bacterium has long been recognized as a pulmonary pathogen of foals and a cause of other localized infections in foals and occasionally adults. R. equi is now considered a pathogen of importance to immunocompromised people, especially those with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The majority of human patients with R. equi infections are immunocompromised, with approximately half of those being HIV patients (see sidebar "Immunosuppressed Humans and Horses" on page 32). Researchers are studying the epidemiology of human R. equi infection, as less than half of infected patients have a history of exposure to horses or pigs (another source of R. equi).
Testing and eradication efforts have nearly eliminated brucellosis from U.S. livestock herds. However, brucellosis still exists in wildlife that can be a source of infection to livestock. Many species of Brucellosis bacteria exist, but it's Brucella abortus and B. suis that affect horses. These Gram-negative bacteria can cause fistulous withers and poll evil. The former is an inflammation and infection of a bursa (fluid-filled sac) over the withers; poll evil is an inflammation and infection of the bursa over the first and second cervical vertebrae, close to the horse's poll. Swelling can occur in these areas, and when bursae burst, purulent material drains from the tracts. Brucella is only one of several bacteria that can cause these conditions, but it should be first on the minds of handlers because of its zoonotic potential.
Direct contact with discharges and possible aerosol exposure in enclosed spaces can serve as routes of transmission to people. While documented cases of human brucellosis are rare, the severity of the disease in people (called undulant fever) and the risk of transmission warrant prompt veterinary services for your horse if you notice an abscesslike swelling occurring in the poll or withers area. Strict hygiene measures should be applied.
Foreign Animal Diseases
Of the zoonotic encephalitic diseases of horses (Eastern and Western equine encephalitis and West Nile virus), none is transmitted via mosquito directly from the horse to human. However, high enough levels of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) in horses' blood can be a source of infection to humans via mosquito bites. Direct transmission from horses to humans does not occur. VEE has been detected in South America and Central America; the last U. S. outbreak was 1969-1972, when it crossed over from Mexico. Other foreign animal diseases that can affect humans are glanders and Hendra virus.
Other "Bugs"
This is not an exhaustive list of horse-to-human zoonotic diseases. Also consider vesicular stomatitis virus, campylobacterosis, leptospirosis, ringworm (see article #5531 at TheHorse.com) and other fungal skin diseases, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection (see article #11078 at TheHorse.com).
Take-Home Message
A few simple guidelines can reduce the risk of obtaining an infection from a horse. Here are the key points:
- Obtain appropriate vaccinations for horses and for people!
- Isolate horses with neurologic signs and have a veterinarian out to see the animal; avoid contact with the horse's saliva.
- Caretakers should use protective clothing and gloves when handling horses or foals with diarrhea.
- Use mosquito and insect control strategies to reduce vector-borne diseases.
- Immunocompromised individuals should consult with a health care professional about specific concerns with any horses and other animals in their care.
- And, like your mother said, "Wash your hands before eating or drinking!" or after any contact with horses.

Drink Coasters Can Test for Date-Rape Drugs
Drink coasters at several North Texas bars can test for substances such as GHB and ketamine.
One of the coasters played a role in the arrest of a reserve Dallas police officer who is accused of spiking women's drinks at a Greenville Avenue bar.
Police said a bartender at the Sugar Shack saw reserve Officer Brad Hellums put something in two women's drinks. The bartender then went across the street to the Whiskey Bar to get one of the Drink Safe coasters, providing police with evidence, said bar manager Neil Ludwig, who runs several bars that use the coasters.
They can test a drink for substances such as GHB and ketamine, two popular "date-rape" drugs.
It tells you that there is something foreign in that drink that shouldn't be there," said Dennis Burns of Drink Safe Texas, which makes them.
Testing a drink is simple. The coaster has colored dots on the corners that change color if the drink is spiked.
"And you can do that with your finger in the drink or the straw," Burns said.
The Sugar Shack now uses the coasters.
Establishments that offer them have a sign on the door to let people who might try to spike drinks know that there's a better chance they'll be caught.
"We want our customers to feel safe when they go out to drink," Ludwig said. "We want them to feel like it's secure and safe in our establishment."
The coasters cut into profits by about 40 cents each, but Ludwig said they are worth it.
"It's not a cheap thing for us to do, but we want our customers to feel safe," he said.
Drink Safe Texas also sells caps you can carry in your pocket to cover a beer bottle when it's unattended, as well as pocketsize drink testers such as the coasters that can be carried in a purse.

Movie stars may cause heads to turn and superstar directors get fanboy worship, but let's be clear: Stan Lee is the undisputed King of Comic Con.
Lee is the former editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics and co-creator of some of the world's most famous superheroes – including Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Thor, the Incredible Hulk, the X-Men and the Avengers – and, at age 89, as charming and charismatic as the big screen's Tony Stark.
Lee gets the full-on rock star treatment wherever he goes to comic book conventions, and interest still rises in his never-ending slew of new projects, including his latest: "Stan Lee's World of Heroes," a full slate of scripted and unscripted digital programming available on Lee's own YouTube channel.
Behind the scenes at San Diego's Comic-Con International, Lee shared the details of his latest phenomenal year with PopcornBiz
You've been creating fantasy characters since you were a teenager. What got you excited about creating this whole new "World of Heroes?"
I'm excited about having my own channel on YouTube. It's like your own cable channel or your own network. I never expected to have something like that, where we can create our own shows and put them on a YouTube channel. We have so many varied things. A lot of them involve me. A lot of them are just other shows that were created that we're putting on, but every one of them has to be offbeat, unusual and amusing and entertaining. It's all got to be a little bit tongue-in-cheek and fun. Nothing stuffy. Nothing dull. Nothing pedantic. I'm excited because the shows that have already been brought to us are wonderful, I think, and then the ones that I'm involved in, well, I'm my own biggest fan, so I think that they're wonderful.
Can you believe what's happened with these characters that you've created? 'The Avengers' and 'Amazing Spider-Man' have seen massive success this year, and you created those characters in reaction to nearly giving up the comic book business a long time ago. What does it mean to you at this point?
I don't really have time to think about it that much, but when it does occur to me, the fact that this all started decades ago with these lowly comic books, it's hard to believe. Of course it's the movies that have made it all so big and so glamorous, movies that could not have been made in the early days because they didn't have the special FX that they have now. But now you can take something that as a comic book just seemed fantastic. I mean, a guy swinging on a web over a city – that was comic book stuff. But you do it beautifully in a movie and suddenly it becomes something spectacular. So the movies have helped so much to make these characters big and important and somehow, even though I really have not much to do with the movies, I'm getting so much credit for it. It's pretty wonderful to me.
When you first came to Hollywood a couple of decades ago, what was it like beating on doors and taking meetings and trying to get these characters to be taken seriously?
I was a nothing and a nobody. Nobody knew my name, except a few people here who had read comics when they were growing up. But even so, 'Okay, you're Stan Lee. You wrote comics. What are you bothering us for?' So, instead of trying to sell movies and television shows we started an animation company and we were producing little 'Spider-Man' cartoons and we did other things, too, besides things that Marvel owned. We won an Emmy for one of the shows. Little by little I started dipping my toe into the movie waters and television, and I realized that I loved that. Eventually I formed a company, almost ten years ago, called POW Entertainment. I'm sure that you've already figured out that POW stands for Purveyors of Wonder. Our latest movie, we have a Chinese superhero. We're co-financing it with a Chinese movie company, but it's a movie for the whole world. It's not just a Chinese movie. I think it's going to be sensational, and we're working on an Indian superhero. We already have two American superheroes. We're doing some television projects, and we have an arena show, sort of like Cirque de Soliel, but bigger. It's a show called 'Yin and Yang; The Power of Tao.' It'll open up in Macau. It's the only show of it's type where the audience will be a part of the story of the show. So we're keeping busy. And I still try to find time to come to comic book conventions.
Are you preparing for an Oscar nomination for 'Amazing Spider-Man' – maybe the funniest cameo you've done yet?
Well, I'm starting a campaign. I have a thing on 'Stan Lee's World of Superheroes' called 'Stan's Rants' where I rant about things that bother me, and it bothers me that there is no award for the best cameo of the year. So, I'm starting a campaign to get my fans to write in. I don't think that I'd have much competition.

Unless you're Tim Tebow, expressing your political views can be hazardous business for sports figures.
The latest to learn that lesson was Miami Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen, who was suspended for five games for praising the Castro brothers. No, he wasn't lauding San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro and his brother, state Rep. Joaquin Castro. That wouldn't be very controversial, at least in Texas.
He was talking Fidel Castro. Of Cuba.
In published remarks Guillen said he "loved" and "respected" Fidel Castro, provoking outrage among the vehemently anti-Castro Cuban exile community in South Florida.
It isn't the first time Guillen spoke of Fidel Castro. USA Today notes this 2008 comment to Men's Journal magazine:
When asked, "Who's the toughest man you know," Guillen named Castro.
He said, "He's a bull … dictator and everybody's against him and he still survives, has power. … I don't admire his philosophy, I admire him."
Yes, Fidel, the retired dictator, and his brother Raul, the current dictator, are big baseball fans. But they're also well-known for human rights violations, among other sins.
There are numerous Cuban defectors playing in the pros. But there's only one baseball figure to speak fondly of the regime.
After watching what happened to Ozzie Guillen, we don't expect to see many others.
Here's what baseball commissioner Bud Selig, who has been a liberal donor to Democrats in the past, said of Guillen's comments:
Mr. Guillen's remarks, which were offensive to an important part of the Miami community and others throughout the world, have no place in our game."

City releases urban deer hunt map
One hunting area located close to popular park
The City of Fort Smith released a map showing where people can hunt under the new urban deer hunt law.
The new law allows hunters to kill deer with a bow and arrow within city limits.
According to the law, no privately or corporately owned land is included in the urban hunting zones.
Hunters must meet a list of requirements and obtain a permit before hunting in any areas included the urban deer hunt zones.
Part of the new hunting zone is located close to a popular park.
While Ben Geren Park is not included in the urban deer hunt zone, a single bike lane divides the park and an area where people can hunt.
Park-goers had differing opinions over the safety of the new zone.
"I think it's a great idea what they're doing with having to have the permit," said Justin Franklin, who was at Ben Geren with his 3-year-old son. "I think that you should definitely have to go through that to do it. I believe that a hunter is going to be a responsible person."
Several other people were not worried about the new hunting zone being close to the park.
"Where we are in the park, and with the golf course next door, there's a lot of room and a lot of space," said Dannel O'Kelley, who was watching a baseball game at the park. "If there were any issues, we'd learn about them long before it got here."
But, other people at the park said they had safety concerns with new hunting zones.
"It seems like a very dangerous idea," said Zach Mulson, a student who walks on the biking trails.
"If they're not good shooters, and a biker is going by, they might not mean to shoot them but they might accidentally hit somebody," said Mulson. "It's dangerous with bikers going by."
The city passed the new law earlier this year.
City leaders said the new law will tackle the city's deer overpopulation problem.
For more information about getting an urban deer hunt permit, visit the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission Website.

I want to use JTAPI (1.4 - latest) to create an app that will call my phone whenever I need it to. I downloaded JSR043 (JTAPI specification) and have been reading the API docs and it seems pretty straight forward with respect to how to code JTAPI.
However I seriously doubt that getting a Java app on my laptop to call my cell phone doesn't require some 3rd party or middle man service provider and possibly other entities/configurations as well.
So I ask: besides using the JTAPI in my Java code, what do I need to install or set up to have a Java app that calls my phone? Thanks in advance!

Leeds writer and producer Kay Mellor this week lent her backing to the 'Buy a Brick' campaign to help drive the fundraising appeal to its ultimate goal.
Ms Mellor, creator of Fat Friends and Band of Gold, said: "I lost my brother to cancer - he was in his early 60s - but I think most people these days have been touched by cancer in one way or another.
"We all need support, not only treatment, but support as a whole family and it would be a wonderful facility here in Leeds. It thrills me to know we will have it here on our doorstep."
Maggie's Yorkshire, a £6.5m centre for cancer patients and their families, is currently being built in the grounds of St James's University Hospital in Leeds to complement the clinical care given.

DARIOS - the digital accelerator ring which adapts itself to the speed of your vehicle - for Audi vehicles.
All Audi vehicles, including the new ones with the "digital" accelerator pedal can be adapted by Kempf to drive without the use of both legs.
DARIOS - (Digital Accelerator RIng Optimized for Speed) is worldwide the first accelerator which adapts itself to the speed of a vehicle. Its purpose is to give a high level of comfort and safety to a driver accelerating with his hands.
At low speed the acceleration is smooth, progressive and economical. It makes delicate manoeuvres during parking or backing up very easy. The gas consumption is reduced, because even a rough handling of the accelerator ring will not result in a rough acceleration, and so avoiding any over consumption.
However the full engine power of the vehicle always remains available.
At high speed the acceleration is dynamic and responsive making quick and precise moves like passing on the freeway very safe. It allows you to keep your hands on the wheel in an ergonomical and natural position requiring very little effort.
DARIOS constantly measures the speed of the vehicle and adjusts its reponse to give you an optimal level of comfort and safety while driving. DARIOS never reduces the full engine power which remains available at any speed.
To accelerate the ring is smoothly pushed toward the steering wheel with very little effort.
The needed effort remains constant at all time.
DARIOS can be installed on most vehicles with automatic transmissions.
Discover DARIOS-DUO with its "sport" mode ...
... a real pleasure to drive!
The version "duo" enables the driver to choose between two driving styles : "Standard" or "Sport" (also called "Fun" by some drivers) using a selector on the dashboard. In both styles Darios still adapts the acceleration response to the speed of the vehicle:
I - The "Standard" style gives the driver an excellent sensibility in acceleration, very smooth starts and an enjoyable and economical ride.
II - The "Sport" style gives the driver a dynamic sensation enabling him to skillfully get a very precise acceleration, fast starts and a real pleasure in driving while still enjoying all the advantages of the ring adapting its response to the speed of the car.
DARIOS - (Digital Accelerator RIng Optimized for Speed ) is an accelerator ring on the steering wheel which adapts its response to the speed of the vehicle to provide you with exceptional driving comfort:
Very little effort is required to accelerate, and the driver can keep both hands on the steering-wheel.
The distance from idle to full throttle is only about 3/4 inch
The leather-covered ring turns freely on its cicular holder to enable a smooth acceleration coming out of a curve.
The adaptation fits well in the car's interior, and the vision of the dashboard remains clear.
The distance between the accelerator ring and the steering-wheel is only about 3/4 inch.
As an option to improve the esthetics, the accelerator ring can be covered with leather matching the color of the steering-wheel.
The digital accelerator ring is compatible with the driver's side airbag and with an airbag installed in the knee area.
The original pedals remain functional as well as all multifunctions and adjustments of the steering-wheel.
The main hand brake is a lever coming out of the dashboard, pivoting around one horizontal and invisible axis. The mechanical connection with the brake pedal is hidden behind the dashboard - therefore, in the event of a crash, the driver's legs will have no chance of coming in contact with any mechanical elements of the handcontrols : the car's passive safety is not compromised by the presence of the hand brake.
The digital transmission of the accelerator ring guarantees the level of safety of modern cars, by assuring to be insensitive to electromagnetic noise.
DARIOS uses two sensors inside the steering wheel to comply with all car manufacturers' safety requirements. All original electronic throttle pedals have two sensors to be immune to electromagnetic noise.
These two sensors are required to avoid unintended accelerations.
Be aware that any electronic accelerator using just one sensor can't garantee the absence of unintended accelerations.
DARIOS uses a wired connection between the steering wheel and the dashboard to transmit the position of the accelerator ring to the gaspedal.
DARIOS sends digital signals through this connection because they are immune to electromagnetic noise.
DARIOS constantly senses the speed of your vehicle and adapts its response to be progressive at low speed and dynamic at high speed.
DARIOS requires the matching of two independent signals before deactivating the original throttle pedal and controlling the acceleration of your vehicle with signals identical to the original pedal.
Each steering wheel model is measured in 3D before installing the mechanism, the two sensors and the electronic circuit.
The position of the ring is sent twice every millisecond to the DARIOS electronic unit under the dashboard which controls the acceleration.
Darios - the digital accelerator ring has been tested in several airbag deployment tests performed by two car manufacturers and by an independent University laboratory, with the same result : The digital accelerator ring doesn't affect the deployment of the airbag.
The result of the airbag deployment tests:Darios - the digital accelerator ring on the steering wheel doesn't affect the deployment of the airbag.
Test de Compatibilité Electromagnétique (CEM)
Darios - the digital accelerator ring was tested for electromagnetic compatibility by several car manufacturers in anechoic chambers and has been found to be in compliance with the European requirement E1 2009/19 EC for electromagnetic compatibility.
The result of all EMC Tests:
Darios is immune to electromagnetic noise. It is garanteed that with Darios you will never experience any unintended accelerations.
