Let us return to Columbus, Mississippi, in the spring of 1866. The Civil War has been over for a year, yet Union soldiers still occupy the town. The fires of passion and prejudice that had consumed over 500,000 American lives between 1861 and 1865 still smolder in bitterness behind closed doors.
Just outside of Columbus is a cemetery where both Confederate and Union soldiers killed at the Battle of Shiloh are buried. On April 25, 1866 four young women pay a visit to the cemetery to tend the graves of lost loved ones and decorate them with memorial garlands of flowers.
After decorating the Confederate graves, the women walk over to a small plot where forty Union soldiers are buried. Gently they scatter Southern magnolia blossoms on the Northern graves. The news of this unselfish, compassionate gesture spreads quickly and touches everyone. Newspaper editorials praise this act of reconciliation and urge the nation to come together to mourn both "the Blue and the Gray".
Soon in many small towns all over the country people were gathering at Civil War cemeteries and holding commemorative or "memorial day" services. Afterwards, there would be parades led by a brass band, the volunteer fire brigade and a review to honor America's veterans. Following the parade and patriotic orations, there would be a community picnic on the town common.
During the late nineteenth century, Decoration Day was a major American holiday and was celebrated with even more fanfare than Independence Day. This was because the Civil War had touched or altered nearly everyone's life.
Ironically, however, even though the country came together in spirit to honor America's war dead, the North and South still managed to commemorate independently. In 1868, General John A. Logan commander in chief of the GAR (Grand Army of the Republic, a union veterans' organization), designated May 30 as "Memorial Day", while the daughters of the Confederacy held firm with the term "Decoration Day" and the date of April 26. Today, Memorial Day is recognized as a day honoring all of those who have fought America's wars and is legally observed on the last Monday of May.
(The above information was copied from the book "Victorian Family Celebrations" by Sarah Ban Breathnach. The postcards are from my collection.)
Below is a calling card that I have of the above mentioned General John Alexander Logan.
About 10 years ago I took ownership of a box of old photos/postcards, family Bible and letters that had been passed down and had belonged to my paternal great, great, great Grandmother, Ellen Boardman Davis. So because of the contents in that box I decided to research them and find out all I could. In the box was a letter, and it took several months for me to finally figure out who the author of the letter was and the importance of it, why it was kept for all of these years. You see, it was dated January the 10th 1862. It turns out that the letter was written by this 3rd great Grandma's brother, Hiram Boardman, and it was to be the last letter that they would ever receive from him.
Hiram had joined the 47th Illinois infantry on Sept. 6, 1861 in Peoria, IL. for a period of 3 years and a little over one year later, Sept. 19, 1862, at the young age of 23 was killed in battle.
I can't place a flag or flowers on his grave because he has none. We were told he most likely was buried in a trench or shallow grave where he fell.
Here is a photo of his letter.
And then, you wouldn't believe what I found while searching the internet one day?!
Okay, I know you will never guess, so here is what I found!!!! A link to a poem written by the man below to my GGG Grandmother and her sisters telling them how and when Hiram was killed!
(The photo is of Sgt. Dixon, not of Hiram. Unfortunately I do not have any of Hiram, that I know of.)
Come Sisters of a Soldier Boy
Hear What I'm going to tell
About a seen that did occur
Whare Hiram Boardman fell
The evening of the 19th day
Of September '62
He marched with furmness to the fite
That raged within our view
He doublequicked for one half mile
Formed quickly in the place
To take an active part with those
That fought with face to face
The cannons roared the smoke curled up
The dead lay scattered round
The wounded was conveyed away
From off this bloody ground
Then with the darkness of night
The firing died away
But all our lines of battle strong
We held till the next day
With guns in hand we prostrate lay
Till twelve o'clock at night
A line of Rebels then appeared
In frunt full in our sight
We halted them and ordered them
To come in one by one
One did obey and is this day
A prisoner of war
But all the others did disperse
And fired into our lines
A volly to we gave them quick
Which sooted to our minds
This was the final fatal hour for us
Now Sisters, all we tell
That when the Rebels fired at us
Young Hiram Boardman fell
We feel our loss a braver boy
Was not within our ranks
But on the field strong men must yeild
And brave all things with thanks
Cheer up now Sisters do not mourn
For Hiram is at rest
He fought his fight his victorys won
He now lies with the blest
Sgt. Elisha Dixon
Courtesy of
Not only were my ancestors lives altered but the lives of my husbands ancestors were to be altered as well. Hiram would lose his life so that my husband's ancestors (African American) could experience life, a life of freedom.
Thankyou so much for visiting. Let us remember a war veteran today, if they are still living amongst us let us be sure to thank them. See you next week!

Is there a topic that you'd like to learn more about? You'd be surprised how little effort it takes to produce a SofTech event on just about any topic in the business/technology space. And I can tell you from experience that building a panel by networking with business and subject matter experts is both satisfying and rewarding.
Besides bringing industry experts together to tackle an industry topic that's been stewing in your mind, perhaps the biggest upside to producing an event is the unique networking opportunity it presents. Here you have the chance to sit down with the development or product manager at company X to discuss their interest in a speaking opportunity at SofTech. I think you'd agree that this approach is a lot more effective than asking to get put through to the manager on a personal business matter.
There are also promotional benefits that come with producing a SofTech event. These include having your bio posted on SofTech.org. You will also be included in emails to our 650+ distribution list.
After having served as SofTech's program director for two years, I'd be more than happy to coach you in producing an event if this is new territory for you.
Are you interested in any of the leading global tech initiatives such as social, cloud, mobile or Big Data? Are there local California or Marin business initiatives that you'd like to see addressed in a public forum?
SofTECH is a non-profit trade organization committed to fostering communication and cooperation for business and technology professionals in Northern California's Marin and Sonoma counties. Its goal is to identify and showcase technology leaders and support the technology user community.

SKF ConRo helps European steel producer drive output and slash costs
The challenge
The SKF solutionSteel mill operators installed the SKF ConRo system, but equipped units with back-up piping for lubrication due to scepticism about a "fully sealed" and "lubricated for life" roll unit. The SKF ConRo units proved to be 100% reliable and helped restore production to a level of 2.4 million tons.
Additional SKF ConRo units were installed without backup lubrication. Production on the segment reached 3.3 million ton, while planned maintenance stops dropped from once every six weeks to once every ten weeks. Unplanned stops are less frequent as well.

Plot needs to be divided into the individual parts.
These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.
Remembrance of the Daleks was the first serial of season 25 of Doctor Who. The story's setting brought the Doctor back to 76 Totter's Lane in the year 1963, where the series began in An Unearthly Child.
It was notable for a marked change in character for the Seventh Doctor, who had previously maintained a jolly and comedic demeanour. Here, a Machiavellian side to his personality was brought into light, underneath the lighthearted exterior, and he began to reveal a manipulative nature that persisted into the rest of his era.
Clues were also given that the Doctor had a secret past on Gallifrey, the first glimpse of the so-called Cartmel Masterplan.
Like The Talons of Weng-Chiang, some members of its guest cast were deemed interesting enough to justify the creation of a Big Finish audio series. In 2012, Counter-Measures continued the adventures of the serial's Group Captain Gilmore, Professor Jensen and Allison Williams.
Remembrance was the final televised appearance of the Daleks and Davros until the BBC Wales revival, although both would frequently recur in other media. It continued a narrative of chronological confrontations between the Doctor and Davros that had begun in Genesis of the Daleks, and included Destiny, Resurrection, and Revelation of the Daleks. It also concluded the Dalek Civil War story arc, which had previously spanned throughout Resurrection and Revelation.
At the time of broadcast, it unambiguously showed the onscreen destruction of the Dalek homeworld, Skaro. This act was largely forgotten by future Doctor Who writers; it was shown in the Doctor Who TV movie and in the BBC Wales episodes Asylum of the Daleks, The Magician's Apprentice, and The Witch's Familiar, along with the adventure game City of the Daleks, which was executive produced by Doctor Who series 5 and 6 executive producers Steven Moffat, Piers Wenger, and Beth Willis, and written by Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures television writer Phil Ford. Writer John Peel proposed a story called War of the Daleks, where Skaro would later be saved from destruction during the planned 27th season of the series.
Peel later adapted the unmade episode into an Eighth Doctor Adventures novel which showed that the planet destroyed at the end of Remembrance was Antalin, a decoy passed off as the real Skaro. Daleks in Manhattan, which was produced after the TV movie and before City, suggested a "great war" destroyed Skaro, apparently referring to the BBC Wales series' Last Great Time War which wiped out much of the Dalek race.
Synopsis Edit
London, 1963: The Doctor returns to the place where it all began — alongside his latest companion, Ace, with unfinished business.
Not for the first time, unusual events are unfolding at Coal Hill School. At 76 Totter's Lane, the Doctor discovers that his oldest foes — the Daleks — are on the trail of stolen Time Lord technology that he left on Earth long ago. The Daleks are planning to perfect their own time-travel capability, in order to unleash themselves across the whole of time and space.
The Doctor, with the help of the local military, must stop his oldest enemies from stealing Gallifreyan secrets, but the lines between allies and enemies are tested to the limit, and the Doctor and Ace must trust no-one in order to survive.
As two opposing Dalek factions meet in an explosive confrontation, the fate of the whole cosmos hangs in the balance...
Plot Edit
The Seventh Doctor and his companion, Ace have landed the TARDIS in London, 1963, where the Doctor has unfinished business: the Hand of Omega, an all powerful, ancient relic of the Time Lord civilisation that the Doctor hid on Earth during a visit to 1963 in his first incarnation.
Unfortunately, the Daleks have also heard about the Hand of Omega, and are trying to find it before the Doctor does. To complicate matters, there are two groups of Daleks at work — the Daleks are currently in the midst of a civil war between those who accept and those who reject the leadership of their creator, Davros. Each side wants the Hand for itself.
In the meantime, the alien activity around the Coal Hill area has attracted the attention of the military. Group Captain Gilmore and his unit engage a Renegade Dalek at the junkyard. The Dalek proves to be more than a match for the military squad until the Doctor destroys it with a timed explosive. The Doctor tries to convince Gilmore and his scientific advisor, Professor Rachel Jensen, that the Daleks are extraterrestrial and human weapons are no match for Dalek firepower. The best thing they can do is just make sure that all ground and air forces stay out of the crossfire whilst the two factions blow each other to bits. The Doctor, however, is playing a deeper game — he wants the "right" Daleks to take possession of the Hand. He and Ace investigate Coal Hill School, where the Imperial Daleks have set up an outpost. The Renegade Faction, however, have their base in a warehouse where a Battle computer is and where Mr. Ratcliffe and his group of fascists called 'The Association' work for the Renegade faction. However, a secret agent of The Association, Mike Smith, is found and interrogated by the Imperial-Dalek-controlled Headmaster of Coal Hill School. Mike Smith, however, is not without his reflexes and subdues the Headmaster, forcing the Imperials to 'terminate agent'.
Whilst the Imperial Daleks are watching from their Mothership, the Renegade Daleks dispatch Ratcliffe and his men to retrieve the Hand Of Omega after the Doctor places it into a cemetery. Although they haul it out of the cemetery, the Imperial Daleks aboard the Mothership detect this. A Dalek calls the Emperor Dalek to assess the situation. After a skirmish with the Imperial Daleks during an attempt to retrieve the radio, Ace does some 'Dalek hunting' with the Doctor. They come across the Renegade Daleks' HQ. The Doctor shows Ace the Battle Computer. He tells her that if the Daleks are over-reliant on rationality and logic, the solution would be to get a young, imaginative child to enslave to the battle computer. The Doctor tinkers with the Time Controller to 'manipulate the enemy'.
His plan works, but with consequences; the Renegade Daleks return to the base to find the Time Controller has been disabled. The Doctor and Ace flee, pursued by Renegade Daleks. They meet up with the ICMG and tell them the situation, only to find the Renegades are still on their tail. Three soldiers try to fend off the Renegade attackers, only to be obliterated.
The Imperial Daleks' Assault Shuttle lands on Earth as part of a mission to retrieve the Hand of Omega, resulting in the Supreme Dalek, via the Battle Computer, ordering the Renegade Daleks to withdraw and defend the Hand of Omega from the enemy. After Imperial Daleks are sent out to retrieve the Hand of Omega, the Doctor, Ace and ICMG invade the Imperial Dalek Shuttle. They find out that the Imperials have control of the planet Skaro. The Doctor disables the massive ground defence and gets out of the Assault Shuttle with the team.
As Renegade and Imperial Daleks patrol the streets, a battle rages in London. A pair of Renegade Daleks locate an advancing Imperial Dalek Squad. They all open fire until a Renegade gets the first hit, followed by the Renegades taking a few Imperial Daleks out as they are forced to retreat from the slaughter. At first, the Renegades are winning until the Special Weapons Dalek is brought in and blows the Renegade patrols to smithereens.
Realising that Smith is Ratcliffe's agent, Gilmore detains him. The Doctor decides to use the remains of the Transmat in the cellar as a communications link with the Mothership.
Smith escapes to the Renegade base, finding Ratcliffe a prisoner. The repaired time controller powers up, enabling the Renegades' escape, but the base is attacked by the Imperials, who overwhelm their few remaining opponents with the help of the Special Weapons Dalek. Ratcliffe and Mike flee with the Time Controller, and the Supreme Dalek orders the controlled girl to recover it. Using her Dalek-augmented abilities, she kills Ratcliffe and pursues Smith. The victorious Imperials return to the shuttle with the Hand of Omega. Meanwhile, the Doctor tells Ace to follow Smith.
The Imperial Emperor is informed of the recovery of the Hand of Omega. Soon after, the Doctor contacts him and demands the surrender of the Hand. The Emperor reveals himself as Davros. He declares his scheme to use the Hand on Skaro's sun, granting the Imperial Daleks the power to overthrow the Time Lords. The Doctor insults Davros and his Daleks, angering Davros, who replies "Do not anger me, Doctor! I can DESTROY YOU! AND THIS MISERABLE, INSIGNIFICANT PLANET!" The Doctor replies with further insults, infuriating Davros into unleashing the Hand.
It turns out that the Doctor booby-trapped the Hand: It creates a supernova, obliterating the Daleks' homeworld. The Hand smashes back into the Imperial Mothership, but not before Davros begs for pity and threatens to destroy the Doctor's home planet, fleeing in an escape pod. The Doctor declares that the Hand is travelling back to Gallifrey.
Ace is captured by Smith, who is still holding the Time Controller. The girl tracks him down and kills him before turning her attention to Ace. The Doctor seeks out the Supreme Dalek, telling it that it is the last Dalek on Earth. Convinced of its absolute defeat, it kills itself, breaking the link with the controlled girl.
At Smith's funeral, Ace wonders if what the Doctor did was good. "Time will tell," the Doctor replies. '"It always does."

Story notes Edit
- Terry Molloy was credited by the pseudonym of "Roy Tromelly" for part three to preserve the surprise of Davros' return in part four. To further avoid spoiling the surprise, Molloy was not credited in Radio Times for part four.
- This story had a working title of Nemesis of the Doctor.
- Roy Skelton is credited as "Voices" for parts one to three, and as "Dalek Voices" for part four.
- Royce Mills and Brian Miller are credited as "Voices" for parts two and three, and as "Dalek Voices" for part four.
- The Radio Times programme listing for part one was accompanied by a black and white head-and-shoulders publicity shot of the Doctor and Ace in an open alley doorway with the accompanying caption "Behind the times? The ever-fashionable Doctor (Sylvester McCoy) and Ace (Sophie Aldred) take a leap back to the swinging 60s to meet an old enemy... / BBC1, 7.35 p.m. Doctor Who". That for part three bore a black and white photograph of Ratcliffe standing with his hands raised before a foreground Renegade Dalek with the accompanying caption "Exterminate... Exterminate... Will Ratcliffe (George Sewell) die at the nozzle of a Dalek? / BBC1, 7.35 p.m. Doctor Who".
- This is the first instance of a Dalek levitating up a staircase on screen. However, Davros appears to have the power of flight in Revelation of the Daleks, achieved with the same special effect. In The Chase, a Dalek is seen to elevate from sand and it is implied they can move between the decks of the Marie Celeste.
- This was the first story to be broadcast in NICAM stereo sound.
- This is the first instance of a "skeleton effect" caused by Dalek weapons. This effect would be used in every subsequent Dalek story.
- The pre-credits sequence includes clips from famous speeches including those of JFK, Charles de Gaulle, the Duke of Edinburgh, and Martin Luther King, Jr. It had been originally been hoped to use a clip from a speech by HM the Queen when opening the Commonwealth Telephone Cable Link on 2 December 1963, but when the production team contacted Buckingham Palace for permission to include the material, this was denied; apparently, Her Majesty did not wish to be quoted on a fictional television programme. However, the Palace did give permission — albeit reluctantly — for the Duke of Edinburgh to be included in the sequence.
- This is the first story showing the inside of a Dalek (an Imperial one) in a scene where it's transmatting.
- This is the first time in the series that the Doctor Who series has been (possibly) mentioned, by an announcer on a TV, saying: "This is BBC Television, the time is quarter past five and Saturday viewing continues with an adventure in the new science fiction series Doc-" - and then the scene changes.
- However, the 2014 episode, In the Forest of the Night has a shot where a bus can be seen advertising Series 8 on it. This can, however, be seen for only a second.
- The original script called for the Doctor to destroy the Imperial Dalek with the ATR and to attack the Supreme Dalek with a "Finger of Omega". This was changed after Sylvester McCoy protested, citing the Doctor's dislike of weapons.
- This was the third time that the Daleks appeared in a season opener. Day of the Daleks opened Season 9 and Destiny of the Daleks opened season 17.
- This story marks the final appearance in the televised series of Michael Sheard and Peter Halliday, both of whom had appeared in numerous Doctor Who stories over the years.
- In the original script, the Special Weapons Dalek was on the Renegades' side, and, rather than possess great firepower, had the ability to fire around corners. The Imperial Daleks possessed a flying battle platform, a concept which was scrapped due to cost.
- Russell T Davies has stated that the destruction of Skaro in this story is one of the first acts of the Time War, along with the events of Genesis of the Daleks.
- The usual coasters underneath the Dalek props' skirting (to allow them to move across surfaces) were replaced by large balls. This allowed them to move over coarse surfaces outside studio sets (which they had not been able to do before) but gave them an unstable, trundling appearance when they moved.
- In part two, the Imperial Daleks telepathically tell the Headmaster (named as H. Parson on the Coal Hill School sign — an in-joke reference to videotape editor Hugh Parson) to apprehend Mike and get him to confess the location of the Renegade Dalek base. Originally, a Dalek voice was heard directing the Headmaster, but strangely in the final cut, all Dalek lines in the scene are omitted. As a result, there is no explicit explanation as to why, when Mike overpowers the Headmaster, the school principal gives a small frightened "No..." before he collapses and dies, falling across a grave. Originally, at this point, the Dalek voice had indicated that the Headmaster would be terminated as a security risk.
- The Daleks telepathically talking to Parsons didn't appear in the initial DVD release, although they did appear in the serial when it was released on DVD Files. However, they didn't show up on the subtitles.
- This story was aired on BBC America along with The Doctors Revisited - The Seventh Doctor. It was also edited into an omnibus format, with the cuts to the credits between cliffhangers removed.
- Concerning the matter of the omnibus editing, the videotape recordings were produced in a way that made the editing out of the credits jarring. A few notes of the Keff McCulloch theme remain audible between the cuts to black. Another complication was presented within the first episode, displaying the words "PART ONE" superimposed over filmed material crucial to the episode. Although it is possible to digitally edit out the words, the process is notoriously time-intensive and delicate, requiring editors to edit each separate frame of film that contains the lettering. For simplicity's sake, it was ignored and left intact upon rebroadcast.
- For an as yet unknown reason, unlike the other stories that accompanied the Revisited specials, it was not shown when the special aired in the United Kingdom later in the year on 2 November on the Watch channel. Instead, Battlefield was shown in its place.
- Ace's act of damaging the Imperial Dalek with a baseball bat would stay with actor Sophie Aldred as one of her most notable actions in the series, both personally and among the public.
- When the Doctor gives Ace her baseball bat, script pages are visible sticking out of the left pocket on his jacket. According to Sylvester McCoy on the audio commentary, he always carried 'Scenes to do' in the left-hand pocket and 'Scenes done' pages in the right.
- In the rehearsal script, Gilmore (now planning to retire) referred to his group as the Special Incursions Counter-Measures Unit and that the army wanted to take over. He said they had "some bright boy, Captain Tunbridge-Steward or something, worked for the SOE during the war" to put in charge. If included in the final episode, this would have contradicted a large number of older UNIT and Brigadier stories. (DWM 464)
- The Doctor is seen reading the book Doctor in the House. This was a running gag Sylvester McCoy came up with: each time the doctor pulls out a book to read, it has the word "doctor" in the title. (source: DVD audio commentary)
Ratings Edit
- Part one - 5.5 million viewers
- Part two - 5.8 million viewers
- Part three - 5.1 million viewers
- Part four - 5.0 million viewers
Myths Edit
- In part four, when Ace is attacked by the Girl at Mike's house, she hides behind the sofa. (If anybody has evidence that this was a deliberate reference to the popular cliché, please share it with us.)
- (Formerly appearing in many places on this very page) There is nothing to indicate that the episode takes place in November 1963. At one point, a calendar indicating this very thing is clearly seen. However, it's true that the weather and the timing of nightfall in part three don't jibe with this. However, in the Special Edition DVD featurette on the making of the story, writer Ben Aaronovitch acknowledges that it was intended to be November, but that the timing of daylight was wrong for that time of year.
- The Doctor complimenting the little girl's wisdom for not talking to strangers could be a possible reference to how the 1960s people weren't as worried about stranger danger.
- The Doctor tells Davros that he is "far more than a Time Lord". This actually occurs, but in a deleted scene - however, this line may have been included in either the PBS or YTV Canada broadcast of the story, as some fans recall seeing this scene long before it was ever released to DVD. (However, this may also have been due to the scene's appearance in the 1993 documentary More than 30 Years in the TARDIS.)

Production errors Edit
- The gates to the junkyard bear the label "I.M FORMAN", as a nod to the junkyard seen in the first ever episode, (TV: An Unearthly Child) and as a continuity link. The junkyard in An Unearthly Child, however, is labelled "I.M Foreman" Though this was later retconned by a couple of books, it was nevertheless a genuine production error, as admitted on the DVD release's production notes extra feature. According to the production notes on the DVD release, the sign had already been corrected once on the day of shooting, as it was originally painted as L.M. rather than I.M., but no one evidently noticed the surname error. (For details of the retcon, see the discontinuity discussion.)
- At the end of part one, the Imperial Dalek is shown to have a wire on its left side in the front shot.
- Although set in 1963, 1980's style houses are visible in the background during the struggle between Mike and the Headmaster at the cemetery in part two.
- In part two, during the scene in the undertaker's, the editor mismatches footage, making Ace's baseball bat appear to suddenly switch from the Doctor's left hand to his right. The error is remarked upon by both Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred on the DVD commentary of this story. Similarly, in another scene, the first soldier to be exterminated on-screen has a gun in his left hand then it switches to his right hand when he gets exterminated.
- At another point in part two, when the Renegade Daleks move onto the streets, in a close-up shot, you can see the section between the head and middle section coming off.
- At one point, a continuity announcement on a television in the background establishes the time as 17:15. Given that the episode is implied to be set in November in London, that should make it dark outside. However, it is not only light but the Doctor subsequently asks people out to lunch. While a convoluted narrative extrapolation might be possible, the simplest reading is that the continuity supervisor, amongst others, dropped the ball.
- At the start of part three, Mike sticks some C4 on the Dalek to the left, but it is the one of the right that is destroyed first.
- When Mike Smith enters the backyard with a message for Ratcliffe in part four, the back wall has graffiti with the number '87' on it, revealing that the episode was filmed in the '80s while supposed to be taking place in the '60s. Sophie Aldred points this out on the DVD audio commentary.
- Near the end of part four when the Girl knocks Mike back against the stairs, they can clearly be seen to move away from the wall, revealing the plain grey backing of the set wall. Also, Mike's body clearly comes to rest on the stairs, but he is later shown to be on the floor in front of the stairs.
- The gate of Ratcliffe's yard is clearly a rather ill-fitted prop. When the gate opens, the path of its swing does not match the groove in the floor. This is most clearly seen when Mike Smith is sneaking into the yard (and is ambushed by the Renegade Daleks).
- Just after the gate is destroyed, one of the Imperial Daleks is briefly shown to have lost a few hemispheres to the blast. In the very next shot the Imperial Daleks feature in, however, no damage is shown.

- In his investigation of reports of a series of agents provocateur known as "the Doctor" who have been involved in numerous unusual incidents, the journalist James Stevens found evidence of the Doctor and Ace's involvement in the Shoreditch Incident. The records indicated that the Doctor was "a short, quirkily dressed man, with a slight Scottish accent and immense intelligence." He noted that the two matched the description of an enigmatic pair also known as the Doctor and Ace who were heavily involved in the ULTIMA Incident in Maiden's Point in 1943. However, he was sceptical about the possibility of them being the same people as neither of them seemed to have aged in the intervening 20 years. In the interim, Stevens noted that this Doctor was present during a holiday alert in a Welsh holiday camp called Shangri-La in 1959 but that he was in the company of another young woman named "Mel." (PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy)
- During the incident, everyone living within a three-mile radius of Coal Hill School and 76 Totter's Lane was evacuated under the Peacetime Nuclear Accident Provisions. Newspapers of the time attributed the evacuation to a gas leak in the basement of the school and the discovery of an unexploded World War II bomb found in a nearby builder's yard belonging to Mr Ratcliffe. James Stevens noted that several soldiers seconded to the ICMG died during the Shoreditch Incident but that one, Sgt. Mike Smith, was denied a military funeral and was buried privately five days later. Following the disbanding of Counter-Measures in the late 1960s, Gilmore campaigned for a replacement group with greater facilities and a permanent rapid-reaction capability. His efforts proved unsuccessful. (PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy)
- The remnants of one of the destroyed Imperial Daleks salvaged after the Shoreditch Incident would later be stored in Department C19's Vault and was one of its first trophies. Earlier in his personal timeline, specifically during his third incarnation, the Doctor had seen its lower half in the Vault but noted that he had never seen a Dalek of that configuration before, least of all on 20th century Earth. (PROSE: The Scales of Injustice)
- UNIT had records of Ace's involvement in this incident in the 2020s. (AUDIO: Signs and Wonders)
- The Doctor describes himself as "the Doctor, President-elect of the High Council of Time Lords. Keeper of the legacy of Rassilon, Defender of the Laws of Time, Protector of Gallifrey" again in PROSE: Vampire Science and Unnatural History, while K9 attributes these titles to Romana in PROSE: The Gallifrey Chronicles.
- The Daleks would reconstruct Skaro by the time of the Doctor's twelfth incarnation. (TV: The Magician's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar)
- During the incident, one Imperial Dalek travelled to 2018 through a space-time rift. It learnt about the Daleks' failure and tried to warn other Daleks. However, this attempt was stopped by Miss Quill, Charlie Smith and a future Ace. (AUDIO: In Remembrance)

September unemployment rate falls to 7.8%
- Employers add 114,000 jobs in September
- Unemployment rate is lowest in nearly four years
- Economists say 'fiscal cliff' causing uncertainty for businesses
The unemployment rate in September fell from 8.1% to 7.8%, the lowest since January 2009, as Americans benefited from a surge in part-time work, the Labor Department said Friday.
Employers added 114,000 jobs, about what economists expected, with health care and transportation and warehousing leading job gains.
Businesses added 104,000 jobs while federal, state and local governments added 10,000.
JOBS REPORT: More stories, analysis, video on employment
The jobless rate fell sharply because it's calculated from a different survey than the official employment number. That household survey showed a robust 873,000 increase in employment and a 456,000 decline in unemployment.
However, many of those job gains were in part-time and self-employed positions.
The report is the government's next-to-last reading on employment before the presidential election and could influence undecided voters. The government will release October figures on Nov. 2, four days before the election.
One positive sign: The Labor Department revised up estimated job gains for July and August by a total 86,000. July's total rose from 141,000 to 181,000, while August increased from 96,000 to 142,000.
"It's continued improvement at a modest pace," Wells Fargo Chief Economist John Silvia said of the report.
Economists had estimated that employers added 115,000 jobs in September, including 129,000 in the private sector and 14,000 government job losses
There were some other bright spots behind the headline numbers. The average workweek rose to 34.5 hours from 34.4 hours. Employers typically boost the hours of existing employees before bringing on new staffers. And average hourly earnings jumped 7 cents to $23.58.
Also, the number of Americans out of work at least six months fell by 189,000 to 4.8 million. Yet these long-term unemployed still represent 40% of all of the jobless.
However, another barometer of future permanent hiring -- the addition of temporary workers -- was less encouraging. Employers cut 2,000 temporary workers.
And about two-thirds of the 873,000 increase in household-survey employment was in part-time jobs.
"We have to look at it as a qualified positive," says Patrick O'Keefe, former deputy assistant secretary at Labor and currently director of economic research at J.H. Cohn, an accounting consulting firm. "It can often lead to getting a more permanent" job.
Leading job gains was education and health services, with 49,000 net additions.
Governments, meanwhile, added 10,000 jobs, and employment for July and August was revised to show an increase of 63,000, up from a previous loss of 28,000 -- an encouraging sign for a beleaguered sector. Those are the largest gains since the U.S. Census inflated government payrolls in May 2010. State and local governments generally have been cutting jobs steadily since 2009.
Transportation and warehousing added 17,000; professional and business services added 13,000; leisure and hospitality, 11,000; and retailers, 9,400. Construction firms added 5,000 jobs.
Manufacturers, however, cut 16,000 positions.
After the economy added a solid 200,000-plus jobs a month early this year, job growth slowed to an average monthly pace of 97,000 from March through August. Economists partly blame a confluence of scheduled tax hikes and spending cuts at year's end that threaten to push the nation back into recession if a divided Congress can't stave them off.
"Until the fiscal cliff issue is resolved, we're not going to get strong job growth," says Joel Naroff of Naroff Economic Advisors. Businesses, he says, are hesitant to invest and hire when they could be saddled with large tax increases within months.
Companies are also worried about the lingering European debt crisis and recession, which are dampening exports, and rising gasoline prices that are likely to crimp consumer spending. Economic growth, meanwhile, has been running at less than a 2% annual pace this year. IHS Global Insight says it expects 1.5% growth the second half of the year, slightly less than the first half.
Economic reports this week underscored the halting recovery. First-time jobless benefit claims rose by 4,000 to 367,000. And while surveys showed both manufacturing and service business activity expanding in September, hiring slowed in the service sector -- which makes up 80% of the economy.
Vehicle sales remained strong in September while several recent private and government reports show the long-depressed housing market has started to turn around.
To further spark home sales and the economy, the Federal Reserve last month announced a bold new program to buy $40 billion a month in mortgage-backed securities to further push down interest rates and pump up stocks. The Fed said it would continue the purchases and possibly buy other assets until the job market improves significantly.

60 seconds with Tom Walker on what makes a "global city"
Tom Walker reveals where he thinks is a great example of a true global city.
Over the last six months the importance of diversification has really shone through. The word "Brexit" has told investors everything they need to know about not putting all your eggs in one basket.
In terms of our outlook for the sector, we think that there are a number of cities around the world which are going to perform very well and give the owners of real estate in these cities pricing power.
When we think about those cities we are thinking of Boston, Los Angeles, New York, London, Singapore, Sydney or Hong Kong. Boston, we think, is one of the great examples.
Boston has a very diverse economy, it's doing leading research into ground-breaking drugs, all the large pharmaceuticals are there and aided by research from some of the world's leading universities like Harvard and MIT.
So, Boston is a great example of some of the ingredients we look for in global cities.

Upper East Side Lyrics
I'm in love. Trust fund. I feel there's something you need and you need just something I know, that kind of look, that kind of look. When you talk to me at least try to take it slow, so come talk to me come talk to me. Well you wore our t-shirt outside the Faint show, you're looking good boy, I how how you do, so come talk to me I like where this could go.
You're talking sweet to me, that harlot's faking. If you're a proper lady, I like where this could go.
I'm in love I'm in love with the south side, that girl is set Upper East Side. When I feel and I feel that starlet thigh, that girl is straight Upper East Side.
I'm on the upper east side, you said I get off at 9, if you could meet me on the corner of fifteenth and divide. I'll show.

Cristo Rey Atlanta Jesuit High School began reconstruction on Monday, Sept. 9 at the school's future site in Midtown, in the former office space for the Catholic Archdiocese of Atlanta.
Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and the Atlanta Archbishop Wilton Gregory joined Bill Garrett, President of Cristo Rey Atlanta and Bob FitzGerald, Board Chair for Cristo Rey Atlanta, to partake in the groundbreaking ceremony, by each taking a turn swinging a sledgehammer into the construction wall.
Cristo Rey Atlanta Jesuit High School is scheduled to open in the fall of 2014 with an inaugural freshman class of 125 students. Each year, another freshman class will be added until the school is at full enrollment of 500 students in the fall of 2018. The school is open to students of all denominations in Atlanta.
Cristo Rey Network schools primarily serve urban students in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods with limited educational opportunities. The average household income for a family of four is $35,000 and 96 percent of the students within the Cristo Rey Network of schools are students of color. Students served by CRAJ will mirror these demographics.
A unique aspect of Cristo Rey Network schools is that all students participate in the school's corporate work study program, where students work at law firms, banks, hospitals, universities, etc., five days a month to help pay for their tuition. Almost 40 local corporations in Atlanta, including UPS, SunTrust Bank and most of the major law firms, have already shown their full support by committing to provide workplace experiences for future Cristo Rey students.
Some 100 supporters of the Cristo Rey model were present at the ceremony to celebrate the groundbreaking.
Cristo Rey Atlanta Jesuit High School is a Catholic learning community that educates young people of limited economic means to become men and women of faith, purpose, and service. Through a rigorous college preparatory curriculum, integrated with a relevant work study experience, students graduate ready to succeed in college and in life.
The school is sponsored by the Jesuits of the Provinces of Maryland, New England and New York and enjoys the full support of the Archdiocese of Atlanta and Archbishop Wilton D Gregory.

Do You Know?
The number of digital campaign analytics technologies and companies has blossomed, and their tags are proliferating. MediaMind found that the number of ads with two or more third party tags -- which help track ad interactions, brand impact, and measure for campaign optimization -- rose 267% from 2011 to 2013. Today, almost a third of digital ads employ more than one tag, up from around 25% in 2011.
Advertisers doing lots of geo-targeted advertising with a variety highly-targeted messages based on location and demographic information tend to have the most tag appendages, such as auto, telecom and CPG brands.
The number of conversion tags, which track whether people complete an action via an ad, such as signing up to download a white paper or purchasing an item, is way up, along with the number of events they track. The number of tags used by the top 10% of advertisers rose 49% since 2010, and events tracked leapt 460%.

Metronomy are an electronic music group formed by Joseph Mount in Totnes, Devon, England in 1999. The current band consists of Joseph Mount (composer, singer, keyboards and guitar), Anna Prior (drums and vocals), Oscar Cash (saxophone, backing vocals, guitars and keyboards) and Gbenga Adelekan (bass guitar and vocals). Their music consists of instrumental electronic music and more recently, with the release of Nights Out, vocal electronic pop music. Mount also releases remixes under the name Metronomy, and has remixed many artists including Gorillaz, Roots Manuva, Franz Ferdinand, Klaxons, Goldfrapp, The Young Knives, Zero 7, Ladytron, Kate Nash, Lady Gaga and Lykke Li.
Metronomy have released three albums of original material, Pip Paine (Pay The £5000 You Owe), Nights Out and The English Riviera which was released in April 2011.
Biography "Heartbreaker"
"Heartbreaker" was released as a single in 2008
Problems listening to this file? See media help.
Joseph Mount started Metronomy while he was still living in Devon as a side project to the various bands he played drums for. He has since claimed that most of these bands were torn apart by girlfriends. Using an outdated computer sold to him by his father, Mount began to make his own electronic compositions. The name Metronomy was originally chosen by Mount as Metronomy sounded cool and interesting and was in keeping with the bands he was heavily into, namely Autechre and Funkstorung.
After relocating to Brighton, Metronomy began to build up a reputation for live shows, sometimes solo, sometimes joined by Gabriel Stebbing and Oscar Cash who provided support as Metronomy's backing band, The Food Groups. They are now no longer referred to as The Food Groups having been fully incorporated into the band.
In the autumn of 2005, Metronomy released a debut album, Pip Paine (Pay the £5000 You Owe). Over the next 3 years, Mount remixed many other artists, often adding new vocals and instrumentation. For example, in the case of his Goldfrapp remix a French monologue about Nottingham. On remixing, Mount has said "(b)asically, I only like remixers that really care about what they're doing. I can honestly say that I have got really involved in all of my remixes. If I've not got anywhere with one I will tell whoever it is that I'm giving up. That doesn't happen that often." Metronomy has "a good strike rate" in terms of remix work released. However, a DFA-inspired remix of U2's "City of Blinding Lights" was dismissed by their marketing manager and was not released.
In 2008, the band released the singles "My Heart Rate Rapid", "Holiday", "Heartbreaker" (which feat. a Remix by Kris Menace), "A Thing For Me" and "Radio Ladio" and the full album Nights Out in September of that year. Kris Menace's Remix of "Heartbreaker" became Hype Chart Nr.1 in 2008. In May 2009, it was announced through the band's Myspace page that Stebbing would be leaving the band. Joseph wrote "It's all very amicable and he's assured me he doesn't think he's fleeing a sinking ship." Stebbing is currently working with his own band, Your Twenties which is being produced by Mount.
Despite this, Stebbing reappeared to play bass for Metronomy for their appearance at the Far Out stage at Green Man 2010.
In 2011, the band released three singles 'The Look', 'Everything Goes My Way' and 'The Bay' from their 3rd album The English Riviera which came out on the 11th of April.

|Kirk and co. find it incredible that a group of Nazis exist on an alien planet. Yet they found it perfectly reasonable that a Roman society could develop in "Bread and Circuses", only nine episodes ago. They claim it is a perfect example of "Hodgkin's law of parallel planetary development". So why are the Nazis any different?
Gill claims that Nazi Germany was the "most efficient state Earth ever knew." Whilst this view was believed at the time of the episode production, today historians point out that in fact the German state was rather inefficient, dominated by huge competing bureaucracies. During the war the Germans never mobilised their population and economy to the extent that the British and Americans did until it was far too late - for example, women in Germany were never called up into the military and industry the way they were by the Allies, until Germany itself was all but overrun. There was also a strong tendancy to announce grand sweeping projects which rarely lived up to the hype - consider the much touted Nazi success of the autobahn system, for instance. Designed as a public works project, the plan actually pre-dated the Nazis by many years. Whilst it was the Nazis that ended up implementing it, road construction never employed more than a quarter of the workers it was intended to. And since car ownership was rare in Germany - especially since Hitler's "people's car" never went into production under the Nazis - what they ended up with were roads that almost nobody could actually use. At the height of autobahn building, only one German in sixty owned a car. And that was a success story, as Nazi projects went. Or consider that the Nazis spent as much money and effort on the V-2 project as the US did on the Manhattan project - and for their efforts, they got a weapon that repeated the failed "terror bombing" tactic whilst doing absolutely nothing useful in the fight against the allies.

Russians Brood, But Americans Get Depressed

NEW YORK — Russians dwell on negative emotions much as novelists Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy so famously detailed, but they are less likely to become depressed than Americans, according to two new studies.
"It seems that even though Russians brood and contemplate more than Americans, it is not the factor that contributes to them being so unhappy," said Igor Grossmann, the University of Michigan researcher who worked on the studies.
Americans had more symptoms of depression than Russians — who generally are believed to be unhappier than Americans — when reflecting on negative experiences, said the studies, which will be published in the journal Psychological Science.
When Russians reflect on negative feelings, they are able to distance themselves and have fewer symptoms of depression than Americans, according to the first study, which included U.S. and Russian students.
Symptoms of depression include negative thoughts, feelings of being punished, a decrease in sleep or appetite, feelings of guilt or past failures and pessimism.
In the second study, researchers measured the level of distress of the students after they recalled and analyzed a recent anger-related experience with another person.
In that case as well, Russians were less distressed after having dwelled on such an experience, were less likely to blame the other person for the situation and were able to distance themselves more easily from the event.
"They have the view of a fly on the wall rather than looking at it through their own eyes," Grossmann explained.
Grossmann, who co-authored the article, said the studies show that it is possible for culture to affect how people reflect on and adapt to negative experiences.
The studies were conducted jointly with the National Institute of Mental Health.

Going premed is a lofty goal for any undergraduate.
But blazing a path to medical school without role models or a road map can leave many underrepresented students feeling overwhelmed and unsure whether their final destination is even attainable.
This year, a Rutgers program dedicated to leveling the playing field for those students is sending off 52 seniors and alumni to continue their education in the medical and allied health fields.
"I like to say Access Med is a diversity pipeline without any leaks," said Kamal Khan, who has worked in the Office for Diversity and Success in the Sciences, or ODASIS, since its inception in 1986, becoming the associate director in 2004 and director in 2011. Access Med is the core undergraduate program of ODASIS, an academic support unit in the School of Arts and Sciences' Division of Life Sciences.
Through Access Med's academic enrichment, advising, career counseling and MCAT preparation, Rutgers has gone from graduating one African-American premed student in 1987 to readying 1,034 minority and economically disadvantaged students for careers in health and medicine between 1990 and 2013.
Hardly a handout, Access Med's practice-makes-perfect approach actually piles more work on the plates of its students. Those intense first-year requirements – an additional two hours of mandatory academic support and assignments per week per STEM course and six hours of mandatory study hall per week – do scare some students away, Khan said. But the ones who stick with it are stronger students for it.
"I preach tough love," said Khan. "If they walk in late to a study session, they get a red flag. If they leave early, they get a red flag. If they miss a class, they get a red flag. Three red flags and they are out of the program."
That formula has helped hundreds succeed in the life sciences, including Gabriela Magdaleno, Tochi Nworu and Elorm Avakame, three first-generation Americans whose paths to medical school vary as much as their personal narratives. But the trio shares one common denominator: Their odysseys would likely have ended early without Access Med.
"As much as my family supported me through my education, they didn't know how to get me to medical school," said Magdaleno, 22, of Hackettstown, who majored at Rutgers in biological sciences with a minor in criminology. "It's a mentally demanding process. There are moments you doubt yourself and question if you've chosen the right path. Even if you don't believe in yourself sometimes, you need someone else to tell you they believe in you. And that was ODASIS."
African Americans, Latinos and Native Americans represent about 26 percent of the U.S. population but comprise less than 8.56 percent of the country's physicians, according to the 2010 U.S. Census and Association of American Medical Colleges.Those percentages didn't deter Magdaleno from pursuing her goal. One of nine students this year to complete both of Access Med's phases, Magdaleno gained early acceptance into Robert Wood Johnson Medical School before earning her college degree.
Magdaleno, whose mother was born in Colombia and father is Mexican and Puerto Rican, recalls tagging along with her mother to doctor visits as a child. Her desire to become a physician stems from watching her mother struggle to translate complex medical terms from English to Spanish for her aging maternal grandparents.
She hopes to fill a need in the community for culturally sensitive physicians so she can help people like her grandparents feel at ease in a doctor's office and ensure they receive the best health care possible. "Although both my maternal grandparents have passed away, I know that when I put on the white coat for the first time this summer they will both be looking down on me knowing that their American dream is finally coming true," Magdaleno said.
Following Access Med through Phase II, as Magdaleno did, puts students on the program's fast track to medical school. If accepted into Phase II, students enter a binding agreement to attend Robert Wood Johnson Medical School upon graduation and begin taking medical courses during their senior year at Rutgers.
In addition to early acceptance, the perks of the rigorous program include sidestepping the costly and often stressful medical school application process, which, with fees and travel expenses, can cost upward of $5,000.
Being required to take medical courses while finishing her undergraduate studies gave Magdaleno an early taste of medical school, which she said should ease her transition this fall and keep her one step ahead at medical school.
Nworu's and Avakame's Access Med journeys both culminated with Phase I, which includes workshops and seminars at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and New Jersey Medical School, as well as out-of-state medical schools. But the two are heading in different directions this fall.
Nworu, who graduates with a visual arts major and minor in biology, was accepted through early decision at New Jersey Medical School. Avakame, a 2012 Rutgers graduate who majored in public health through the School of Arts and Sciences and the Bloustein School, worked as an ODASIS adviser this year as he applied to medical schools.
Among the 13 Access Med students accepted at New Jersey Medical School this year, Nworu said she chose to continue her medical studies in Newark because of the "family-like atmosphere" she felt there during tours and seminars.
"You go for a big institution and you're kind of looked at like an number," said Nworu, 22, of Piscataway. "The fact they are able to give that individual attention to someone even before you've enrolled (means) they actually place some value on you as a person."
Her parents, born in Nigeria, instilled in her early on that "education is the key to success." And they led by example: her father, a retired Newark teacher, completed his doctorate last year at age 62; her mother, a school nurse in East Orange, earned her master's in nursing at Jersey City University.
So after graduating from Piscataway High School with a 3.8 grade average, Nworu was unnerved to receive a 2.9 at the end of her first semester at Rutgers. "The fact that I had below a 3 was crazy to me," she said.
That's when she decided to dig deeper and take full advantage of all the assistance Access Med offered.
"I was trying to get the homework done just to get it done. I didn't go in for the additional. I figured I can do this. I'll just study in my dorm," said Nworu, who is graduating with a 3.6 average. "After that, I was in the office all the time asking for additional help and additional practice questions on top of what I had to do as a ODASIS student."
Avakame, 22, an academic standout at his high school in Bensalem, Pa., said he was "shell shocked" when he started college. "There was too much freedom," he said.
But Access Med's structure provided the discipline he needed to better his study and time management skills; his GPA went from a 2.3 to a 3.7. Within four years, Avakame went from floundering as a freshman to being invited to attend Harvard Medical School.
Inspired by his parents' decision to leave their native Ghana for Canada and later the United States to further their education, Avakame decided to leave his comfort zone in Philadelphia to attend Harvard.
"Both my parents were born in poverty in Ghanaian villages," Avakame said. His father, Edem, earned his doctorate in sociology and is now a tenured professor at Rutgers' School of Criminal Justice. His mother earned her CPA and works today as an analyst at Lockheed Martin. "They saw an opportunity to secure a better life for themselves and for their future children, and they seized that opportunity," Avakame said.
With the addition of New Jersey Medical School and Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, which already partners with Access Med, into Rutgers July 1, ODASIS' "diversity pipeline" will be an internal one.
Post integration, Rutgers can claim that more than 20 students from underrepresented groups will be accepted annually into its own medical schools. "These accomplishments easily make Rutgers University a national leader in diversity in medicine," Khan said.

jengel199 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 21 diseños de 10 diseñadores freelance.
We have an assignment from a two churches in Connecticut to redesign their sites. The current sites have awful colors and don't really do a good job of communicating the vibrancy and diversity
Desired Color Scheme:
Desired Style:
easy to read, easy to navigate, uncluttered, and straight ahead. we use the book "Don't Make Me Think" to evaluate the ease of use of site design.
Accepted File Formats:
.psd or html
Let me begin my saying that of the last 100 church websites I looked at there were zero that stood out for being well designed, easy to navigate, information rich and inviting. That's the bad news because there isn't much out there to refer to. The good news is that for the designer who can figure out how to do Church sites well, you will never go hungry because there is alot of need for a good design out there.
Mine is a fairly simple project and I believe the challenges are typical of a small community site, whether it is the any church, or the local Rotary club, or any non-profit organization. All of these kinds of sites are trying to:
1. communicate to the members what has happened lately in the church (we had a speaker, a social, a fundraiser, or a sacrament like First Communion)
2. communicate to prospective members the kinds of programs that are available (music programs, youth programs, bible camp, etc.)
3. help members get the schedule of upcoming activities quickly and easily (mass schedule, holiday schedule, choir schedule, etc.)
4. show off some of the events with members having a good time, doing good works, coming together as a community
5. show the clergy and the leaders in the community so that people know who to contact
I think that often in Church design we as designers focus on symbolism. This can be good and it can be bad. For example, there are specific colors for each of the liturgical seasons in the Church. Every color has significance but designing a web site around these colors has the potential for making a site confusing and unreadable. I have seen so many churches use Medieval frescos and mosaics or stained glass on their websites. Stained glass and mosaics do not always translate well to the computer screen.
Likewise, we have the icons and symbols. I believe that there is a desire in alot of Church websites to pile on symbols of the crucifix, the lamb of God, the Holy Family and the Saints. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. Be careful here.
For example, I know that on the cover of my church bulletin, for example, there is a drawing of a saint and a drawing of the Church building. I don't know what purpose either of those serve. I am not joining a building, I am joining a community. And, if I don't know who that saint is or what he is doing then I probably don't identify with him either.
What this means for this design exercise is that I'd like you to make a clean and inviting site that shows the diversity of the community and the range of activities available, that I'd like to respect all of the best practices we've learned in corporate web design instead of falling into the conventions and cliches of traditional church design. I don't want it to be cliche.
Both of these churches I am assisting here are in affluent communities with residents who are well-educated and sophisticated users of the web. I would estimate that 90% of the parish have broadband connections and use the web frequently. We are not trying to entertain with this website, but to inform in an elegant manner.
I'd like to call your attention to these five Church websites to use as a reference for the CONTENT and NAVIGATION that we'll need on this page:
You should make your design as a Photoshop File using layers, able to be sliced up into HTML and making use of Cascading Style Sheets. We expect that once we have picked a winner that we can get that design sent to us both ways, .PSD and HTML. If you are not capable of translating your design to HTML then please indicate that in the comments next to your entry and we'll have to figure that out between us but it is not a big deal.
I also created the design contest for Paper.com that is going on now at Sitepoint. You will see that I am used to giving a tremendous of feedback once I start seeing designs and I will help some of the better early entries to refine their designs toward what we are looking for.

Gunships are pegwarming at my local Kay*Bee. They're on sale for $10.99 I think.
MetalJedi- No, i'm not joking. I didn't get it because i'm probably one of the few who doesn't like the design of the Gunship. The $11 clearence seems reasonable, they've been pegwarming since May.

I've never "finished" a Dance Central game because, every time I start playing, the booze eventually runs out, and/or people eventually go home. I could play it sober, by myself, but, um, no.
That might have to change soon, though, because Dance Central 3's closing credits are wonderful. Not only are they a great pixel representation of the series' characters, but the animation wasn't done by the developers. It was done by fan David Nguyen, a "Dance Central cosplayer and community member".
David goes into detail about Harmonix's cute gesture, as well as how he made the video, in this guest post over on Destructoid.

Light with yellow undertones. I have seen lighter, it may be a tad lighter than my skin, I would estimate NW 15-25 would be okay if you want it to match your skin shade, but bb creams are not meant to serve that purpose. Pros: Contains 10% Vitamin mix: A, B3, B5, C, E, F, H and Blue Complex (why I bought it) Has sufficient sunscreen, not the best, but usable. Looks natural on, very beautiful. (not obvious you're wearing makeup) Not drying, not oily. Cons: It smells exactly like used baby wipes, but only initially. It needs a good moisturizer underneath(its winter now), not really a con, but it would help MY SKIN to be more moisturizing. haha Does not have SPF 50 or pa+++, (but its still high enough to use) Overall, I really like it. Im going to finish the tube (hopefully) and I'll update with any new information I find. :)

Stairs to interview for Phils color commentator job
Former slugger the latest Phillies alum in the running for vacancy in the booth
PHILADELPHIA -- Comcast SportsNet broadcasts its first Grapefruit League game from Clearwater, Fla., on Feb. 26.
It almost certainly will have a new color commentator by then.
Matt Stairs will be the latest, and possibly last, person to interview for the job, which became vacant when the network declined to bring back Chris Wheeler and Gary Matthews.
Stairs, who famously hit a go-ahead pinch-hit home run for the Phillies in Game 4 of the 2008 National League Championship Series at Dodger Stadium, declined comment when reached by telephone Thursday.
Jamie Moyer, Mitch Williams, Mickey Morandini and Kevin Stocker -- all former Phils -- are finalists to be Tom McCarthy's partner in the booth, with some sources giving an edge to Moyer and Williams.
Stairs has done TV work with NESN and radio work with SiriusXM.
Comcast has final say on the hire, although the Phillies' input will be included.
