I was delighted to hear from Robert Watt member of the Orders and Medals Research Society. He possesses in his collection a Hull Seaman's and General Orphan Asylum medal for William Henry Cumpston.
William Henry was a gifted child who published poetry and went on to become a newspaper editor. He had a troubled time though when charged with attempted murder. You can read his story on my website at
Robert has kindly sent me the attached photos of the medals.

Fake officer pulls over, attacks woman
A woman who thought she was being pulled over by a law enforcement officer was attacked by a man on Highway 88 near Woodfords Junction on Monday night.
According to the Alpine County Sheriff's Office, the woman said she saw a white truck parked near the junction. As she passed the truck westbound, it began to follow her into Woodfords Canyon.
She told deputies she saw a single red light shining from the truck and pulled over thinking it was an officer.
A man wearing dark clothing and a badge walked up to her vehicle and asked for her information before ordering her out of her vehicle.
As she exited the vehicle, the man grabbed her and threw her to the ground. She managed to fend off the man, get back into her vehicle and escape.
The man was described as white with a stocky build, 40-50 years old, 6-feet 2 inches tall, weighing about 225 pounds, with dark hair and a bushy mustache. He may have sustained injuries in the fight.
The pickup was a white diesel with aftermarket custom rims.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Alpine County Sheriff's Office at 530-694-2231.

Imaginary mailbag
To our loyal Avs Mailbag readers: there will be no mailbag for the next two Mondays. The guy who filters me about eight questions every week – an earnest, likable fellow named Bryan Boyle – is on vacation in that time. So, sorry.
But fear not, I'll supply a mailbag of sorts right now. Let's start with answering a couple of questions that I seem to get every single week, no matter what time of the year, then we'll move on to some questions that I wish I would get more often.
– What are the Avs going to do with regard to trades? It's Saturday, Feb. 28, as I write and the Avs are coming off a 6-1 loss to the Rangers in N.Y. (Terry Frei is covering).
The deadline is Thursday, and there will be at least one trade involving the Avs. Here's the thing, though: In this economy, the Avs may be as stuck with a couple of contracts like the Federal Reserve is stuck with a whole lot of sub-prime mortgages right now. Brett Clark is proving very difficult to move. He's finishing up an awful season offensively, and he's making $3.5 million this year and next. With many teams very worried about their economic situations going forward, Brett Clark just is not a good sell to NHL owners right now.
Jordan Leopold is the most marketable D-man to trade, being a UFA this summer and not making a whole lot now. But can the Avs get a lot for him? Maybe not. A first-round pick for him might be a stretch.
There is going to be a whole lot of salary contraction going on in the next couple of years, and nobody is in a mood to risk "future" assets like draft picks for anything other than a bona-fide, stud star player. Jordan Leopold does not fit in that category.
The fact is, the Avs currently have five defensemen who are guaranteed at least $3 million next season (Foote, Liles, Hannan, Salei and Clark). Liles and Hannan will make more than $4 million, in fact. It can be argued that every single one of them is overpaid, although I think Foote is still worth the money he makes, and Liles has enough talent that it's still arguable that he's worth it.
I'll still predict that Ryan Smyth won't be dealt. The top contenders have offensive lineups that are good enough, and they aren't going to want to mortgage their future to get him. It's possible he will be with another team this week, but I think he'll stick around.
– Will Joe Sakic play again? Honestly, nobody has any idea. He still isn't skating, and until he does, nobody can know how he'll feel, coming off back surgery. The left hand is fine, though.
Now for some other questions from me to myself:
– "Have you ever seen a worse player in an Avalanche uniform than Tyler Arnason?"
Well, yes. Francois Leroux was probably the worst, followed closely by Jeff Shantz. But Arnie's year so far probably wraps up the No. 3 spot. He's been awful, with Clarkie probably No. 2 on the "who had the worst season of any Avs player in 2008-09? list"
– "Do you feel any need to say "I told you so" to the many people who laughed at you for thinking Peter Budaj wasn't good enough to be a No. 1 goalie with this team?"
Um, maybe a little. Not that I wished anything bad for Boods – a good guy. But I had to go with what I believed.
– "Aren't you sad that the Avalanche had a bad year and won't make the playoffs?"
Nope. For the millionth time, I don't care if the Avs win or lose. I don't get paid extra if the team wins a Stanley Cup. William Dean Singleton signs my checks, not Stan Kroenke. So I'm loyal to him, not the Avs.
I get to spend more time with my kid if the Avs don't make the playoffs.
That said, I try to cover the team a little bit like I'm a fan – because I want to relate more to YOU, the real fans. I try to put myself in your shoes and talk about the things you'll react to, and not cover the team like an accountant poring over the corporate balance sheet. I don't know if that makes sense, but it's the best I got tonight.
I'm like anyone, too, in that I like to see good hockey – not bad hockey. That applies to the visiting team as much as the home one, but since I cover one team 82 times in a regular season, the answer is, yes, I'd rather see them play good hockey that is enjoyable to watch, instead of the wretched product I've seen this year. It's just more fun to see a talented player than an un-talented player.
– "Is Francois Giguere's job in jeopardy?"
Probably not for the immediate year. But it was a very bad year for him in 2008/09 (I hate calling it a "year" when two are listed, split by a slash mark, but…). He was wrong letting Jose Theodore go, he was wrong letting Andrew Brunette go, he was wrong not replacing Tyler Arnason with another center, he was wrong not doing more to address their speical teams. And, now he's going to be second-guessed all summer in his decision to let Joel Quenneville go for the reincarnation of Tony Granato.
It's tough to rip either man in the wake of so many key injuries this team has suffered, but what's been the excuse since Paul Stastny came back? They are 0-3 since he did, losing games by scores of 4-3, 4-0 and 6-1. Frankly, the Avs have looked like quitters in the last week, and the coach and GM have to take their share of the responsibility.
It's amazing to me, frankly, this team has yet to make a single trade all season. Giguere sat on his hands after Sakic and Stastny went down, leaving Granato to find the answers from within. His first idea was to put Arnie at No. 1 center for two games, which, um, didn't work out and since he's played just about every player with every other on a line.
– "How much money will this team lose this season?"
Probably at least $10 million. I'll be doing a story on their financial plight some time this week. But just doing simple math, you get at least that number – and probably more. They are a team with a sizable payroll that won't make the playoffs, that has had only six sellouts all season. They'll lose money, for certain.
– "What are you doing right now?"
I'm laying in bed, with a snoozing wife and dog beside me, with Saturday Night Live on the telly. Two half-empty bottles of Aqua-Fina are on the nightstand next to me, with a kleenex laying on top from a previous blow of the nose. Some blonde chick I've never heard of is the music guest on SNL, and honestly I'd boo if I were in the audience, especially the cliched band playing behind her (bald, overly enthusiastic male drummer, two younger guys with weedeater haircuts in leather jackets trying to enthusiastically jump around like they're playing behind John Lennon or something).
– "What would you do if Stan Kroenke made you the GM of the Avalanche suddenly?"
First off, junk the entire third and fourth lines. Start over with younger guys, guys who are faster. This team needs a lot more speed, especially in the depth areas – that includes penalty-killing.
Second, get another goalie. Let Budaj and Raycroft both go, and just start over. If no stud is available in the draft (or a more palatable veteran alternative at the deadline), sign a Manny Legace or somebody like that this summer, give Tyler Weiman a shot in training camp and try like hell to find a gem with your No. 1 pick in the draft.
– Drop the stubborn attitude in certain areas.
That includes everything from PR and TV (stop trying to fool the fans with don't-worry-be-happy BS when everybody knows this team is knee deep in doo doo) to being able to admit you made mistakes in personnel areas (don't bring Darcy Tucker back at $2.3 million. Buy him out if necessary and get somebody who is eager to play. Yes, that means admitting you screwed up signing him for two years last summer, but so be it).
"What are you going to remember most about this year?"
Other than Obama being elected and this being a one-newspaper town suddenly, I'll probably remember how unmemorable this season was. Joe Sakic's snowblower injury certainly was newsworthy and weird and all that, but this team was just blah from beginning to end. Just not enough passion, on and off the ice.
I'm starting to wonder if if maybe it resembles too much the personalities of Giguere and Granato? Not saying they don't have passion, but I'm just wondering. Neither can be called a "fiery" personality, I think it's fair to say.
I keep wondering if Patrick Roy wouldn't be perfect for this team, in a management capacity?
OK, ambien kicking in (no, I didn't kick it). So, night night.

The Polar Rs 200 heart rate monitor is the base monitor I recommend for people who are more into running than cross training (for cross training see my review of the Polar F11 heart rate monitor).
The RS 200 is made for runners. It's not overly complicated but gets the job done of tracking basic workout functions and dislpays all the key information about your workout at a glance.
A cool feature of the RS is that you can program the display to show you up to 3 different workout variables such as:
heart rate
time in zone
total time of exercise
stop watch
lap times
Polar RS200 Heart Rate Monitor
If you're into running, the Polar RS200 is a great monitor that will do about everything you'll ever need for heart rate training.
The RS200 is a different animal than either the Polar F6 or Polar F11 as it's geared specifically to the running crowd with some must have features you'll want – especially if your training for a 5k race or marathon.
One of the best features on the RS200 is the 3 target zone alarms. With the zone alarms you'll know exactly how long you were training in each zone based on your V02 Max.
Once your workout is over, there's a handy upload/download feature that let's you access the Polar Running Club online where you're data can be analyzed – how cool is that!

The invasion of 'killer' Asian hornets into the UK appears worse than initially thought after a SECOND sighting in a separate location was confirmed.
Last weekend, the National Bee Unit announced that a pumpkin-sized nest at the top of a 55 ft conifer tree in the south was treated with pesticide and destroyed.
Work to find, destroy and remove any nests near the second sighting is already underway.
The National Bee Unit has set up a three mile surveillance zone around the location in Tetbury with a local control centre to coordinate the response.
Inspectors across the area will use infrared cameras and traps to locate any nests and nest disposal experts will use pesticides to kill the hornets and destroy any nests.
Bee inspectors will be supported by nest disposal experts who will use an approved pesticide to destroy any hornets and remove any nests.
Nicola Spence from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs said: "We have been anticipating the arrival of the Asian hornet for some years and are implementing our well-established protocol to eradicate them and control their spread.
"It is important to remember they pose no greater risk to human health than a bee, though we recognise the damage they can cause to honey bee colonies.
"That's why we are taking swift and robust action to identify and destroy any nests."
The hornet arrived in France in 2004 and is now common across large areas of Europe.
It was discovered for the first time in Jersey and Alderney this summer. It is believed the species will not be able survive in the north of the UK due to colder winters.

Growing number of US officials believe al-Qaeda is finished
April 15, 2013 15 Comments
By IAN ALLEN | intelNews.org |
An increasing number of government officials in the United States believe that al-Qaeda is no longer a serious threat to the homeland and are turning their attention to the next chapter of America's security posture. Citing American defense and intelligence insiders, The Los Angeles Times claims that the militant Islamist group has been virtually decimated following more than a decade of relentless pursuit by Washington. So extensive is al-Qaeda's operational devastation, they say, that US intelligence agencies can no longer discern any meaningful operational structure at the group's core. Aside from its reputed leader, Egyptian physician Ayman al-Zawahiri, and a handful of others, no senior al-Qaeda lieutenant is believed to be alive. For over four years, the group's commanders have been killed by the Central Intelligence Agency almost as soon as they have been identified, claims the paper. Al-Qaeda's collapsing structure has led to an inevitable process of decentralization, which has rendered its surviving senior leadership virtually irrelevant to the global Islamist movement. Instead, a host of al-Qaeda-inspired factions have assumed the role of torchbearer, operating in far-flung locations such as Iraq, Syria, Mali, Yemen and Somalia. However, says The Times, these groups are motivated by strictly local issues and have neither the ability nor the will to mount large-scale attacks on American targets. The article quotes former US Deputy Assistant Defense Secretary Rosa Brooks as saying: "to the best of our information, there is nobody out there with both the desire and the capabilities to cause any serious damage to the US in any way at this moment". As a result, US intelligence agencies, led by the CIA, have scaled back their covert-action programs against al-Qaeda, including so-called 'signature strikes' by unmanned drones. As the CIA is faced with calls to limit its covert-action programs and return to traditional intelligence collection, many American officials are turning their attention to the next chapter in Washington's security posture. Speaking to The Times, one former official, Shawn Brimley, who until 2012 was Director for Strategic Planning at the US National Security Council, poses the question: "what does a sustainable counter-terrorism policy look like for the next phase?". One possible answer was provided a few days ago by the Director of National Intelligence, James R. Clapper, who told Congress that attention should now be turned to "lone wolves [and] domestic extremists" inside the United States.

Furnish the home you never want to leave

A playful design that keeps any contemporary living space tidy!
Scandinavian brand Gubi are the treasure hunters of our generation. Based in Copenhagen's docklands, and fuelled by a passion to uncover overlooked icons from the past and future icons in the making, Gubi are a serious design force receiving international recognition for their work. The result is an eclectic, international collection that blurs the lines between the past and the future, chasing forgotten icons from the 30's to the 70's. Mathieu Matégot (1910-2001) started producing handmade furniture, after his release from the French Army in 1944, with a unique style. Mathieu was the first person to combine metal tubing with perforated sheet metal, a pairing that particularly characterizes his work. In just over a decade Matégot's designs achieved an iconic status, with his Nagasaki Chair being the best-known design, which is now held in Vitra's Design Museum in Germany.

The Latest Dept of Energy Loan Recipient to Declare Bankruptcy Is…
**Written by Doug Powers
The pessimist sees this as taxpayers being out $43 million, but the optimistic green bureaucrat will compare it to Solyndra and tout it as saving taxpayers $492 million.
The latest DoE loan recipient to declare bankruptcy is Beacon Power Corp:
A Massachusetts company that received a $43 million Energy Department loan guarantee last year filed for bankruptcy Sunday, a step certain to fuel criticism of federal green energy financing in the wake of the solar company Solyndra's collapse.
Beacon Power Corp., which develops energy storage systems, filed for bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.
Beacon Power had received federal loan guarantee to help build an energy storage plant in Stephentown, New York that began operating in January. The Treasury Department's Federal Financing Bank provided the loan.
Beacon sought bankruptcy protection two days after the White House ordered an independent 60-day evaluation of the Energy Department's loan programs aimed at ensuring effective management and monitoring.
As usual, when explaining Beacon Power Corp., the Department of Energy will claim they performed their due diligence. As you'll read below, the threshold of what's considered a "red flag" is apparently much more lax when you're spending somebody else's money.
From Verum Serum:
It looks like the Administration will also have some questions to answer about their evaluation of Beacon's credit-worthiness. Because just weeks before the DOE granted final approval of the loan, they were on the verge of being de-listed.
In mid-September [2009], Beacon received word from NASDAQ that it was out of compliance with the exchange's minimum trading-price of $1 per share. Beacon Power closed at 72 cents a share the day NASDAQ sent its notice. Beacon said it believes it meets applicable standards, other than the minimum bid price requirement.
Read the rest here.
Meanwhile, Nevada Geothermal, with about $145 million of taxpayer money at stake, is dancing on the insolvency line. However, one DoE loan recipient, Fisker, does look to be creating jobs… in Finland.

Plagiarism is the unacknowledged use of someone else's words or ideas. In American academic settings, you will need to show you have done your research, but have still written something new and original. You will need to appeal to experts and authorities while improving upon or disagreeing with their work. And you will need to give credit where it's due while still making your own significant contributions. It's a fine line to tread sometimes, but you're always better off erring on the side of caution. If you're not positive whether you should cite something or note, cite it! You're better safe than sorry – a charge of plagiarism can have severe consequences. Please consult the NMU Student Handbook (http://www.nmu.edu/handbook) to see what those consequences could entail.
Actions that could be interpreted as plagiarism
- Buying, stealing, or borrowing a paper
- Hiring someone to write your paper
- Using a source too closely when paraphrasing
- Building on someone's ideas without citation
- Copying directly from another source without citation (on purpose or by accident)
Keep in mind that your professors are intelligent people. It's just as easy for them to find the original source of a paper copied from the Internet or any other source as it is for you to find it to copy from.
When to cite
- When you are using or referring to somebody else's words or ideas from a magazine, book, newspaper, song, TV program, movie, web site, computer program, letter, advertisement, or any other medium
- When you use information gained through interviewing another person
- When you copy the exact words or a unique phrase from somewhere
- When you reprint any diagrams, illustrations, charts, and pictures
- When you use ideas that others have given you in conversations or over e-mail
Avoiding plagiarism
- When researching or interviewing, mark everything in your notes that was someone else's words with quote marks and indicate any ideas not directly quoted that were taken from your source. Marking your notes with Q for quotes, S for source, and ME for your own ideas and insights may help.
- Take notes as you work rather than copying and pasting from sources.
- Save your all your research materials, notes, and drafts of your papers in case a question arises about a specific source.
- Record all your documentation information immediately. Remember that there are few things more frustrating than having to track down a source weeks after you first accessed it. Keep a running bibliography as you write and cite each source as you use it. That will make you less likely to forget to cite information or to make an error in your citation material.
- Proofread your paper with your notes or copies of your sources nearby; make sure anything taken from a source is acknowledged.
- Rewrite key ideas using different words and sentence structure than were used in the original. When paraphrasing, write your sentence without referring to the original source so that you have to rely on your own words, rather than the author's.
- Begin paraphrases with statements like "According to…".
- Put any unique words or phrases within a paraphrase into quotation marks. For example: According to John Smith, Harvard philosophy professor, "savage inequalities" exist in our education system.
- Always indicate where your information came from and what your source's credentials are. In addition to helping you avoid plagiarism, this will establish the reliability of your information.
- Remember that having a bibliography alone is not good enough. You must include in-text citations within your work, even when you are paraphrasing.

About Lowering Springs
Aftermarket springs are commonly used to lower the ride height and to reduce body roll. This is also often done when upgrading to a larger wheel and tire package. Generally speaking, the stiffer the spring rates (the amount of resistance a spring is set for against compression), the softer the sway bar setting can be set in order to achieve a similarly flat cornering response. When trying to decide which lowering springs are right for you, your goal should not be to drop down the car as far as possible. In many cases, overly ""slammed"" cars may actually be illegal for road use and terrible performers. The ideal range of adjustment should be 0.5 to 2 inches using traditional lowering springs. Any lower, the height of the perch should be adjusted by using a ride-height adjustable coil over suspension.
Do you have any questions about these Eibach Pro-Kit Performance Lowering Springs for Porsche 996/997 911? Give us a call today at 714-582-3330

Eve Ensler is a Tony award-winning playwright, performer and activist. She is the author of The Vagina Monologues, which has been published in 48 languages and performed in over 140 countries. Many of today's girls and young women "don't know what the word 'feminism' means," reflected Ensler in late 2011. "But their desires are feminist — they want to be free, safe, have opportunities and leadership roles. The trick is to find the language girls speak and support that, rather than say, 'This is an ideology that has gone on for years that you all need to support.'"
Ensler was thinking of her teen-oriented "I Am An Emotional Creature: The Secret Life of Girls Around the World" — a New York Times best-seller, adapted, first for MTV, and subsequently for the stage. "Emotional Creature" is itself part of the ongoing reverberations from her 1994 play, The Vagina Monologues. For that project, Ensler collected interviews with more than 200 women before shaping them into a series of sad, funny, fierce, wounded, indignant, and joyful reflections on the landscape of the female body and the violence to which it's sometimes subjected. The show electrified actors and audiences. It also catalyzed her creation of V-Day, a global movement to end violence against women and girls, which has raised over 85 million dollars through local performances of The Vagina Monologues held around the world. It's theater as an engine of collective healing and grassroots activism and it helped win Ensler a 2011 Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award for her humanitarian efforts. It joins her Obie Award, Guggenheim Fellowship and many other awards and honors. Most recently, she published the book "In The Body of the World" in 2013.

I am traveling at the moment (currently awaiting the high-jinks howls of the coyotes as they commence their nocturnal gambol across the hills of Santa Barbara, beneath the chary approval of bright Orion and his constellar concomitants alit with country noirscapes), so was not able to personally accrue a new image of our Monte Bello vine, and for reasons equally folkloric and mystical, my colleague to the north was also unable to fulfill her oeno-ordainment.
Fortunately, one Eliot to the north and one Sam to the south were able to lensify in our respective steads, and VineWatch proceeds on unabated, accordingly!
To begin, please note that our Lytton Springs vine has had added to its externate architecture a second stake , as can be seen below:
Whereas at Monte Bello, The Vine Remains The Same, as it were, though this is now confirmededly the final weekend before pruning, so this is perhaps our last pictorial celebration of its many-tendril'd splendor:
Thank you to Eliot and Sam for bringing us another week closer to our beautiful vines, and thank you to you all for joining us in their seasonal promenade towards attainment, actualization, and theirselves, of themselves, becoming forth.
Please stay tuned as we follow our lovely vines through the 2013 vintage!
We're only five weeks in so far, but for a quick look back, please enjoy the links below:
