Burial records for two Cotswold cemeteries and records for a London crematorium have just gone online.
Cotswold cemeteries
Deceased Online, which has made these records available online, says: "Over 16,000 burial records for two cemeteries managed by Cotswold District Council are now available.
"Chesterton Cemetery, opened 1872, is located in the 'Cotswold capital' Cirencester and Stratton Cemetery (in Stratton, just outside Cirencester) has records from 1888. All records for both cemeteries are available online, and comprise digital scans of burial registers, details of graves and maps indicating the locations of many of the graves.
"Cotswold District Council is a large area serving a region that stretches from Chipping Campden in the north down to Tetbury in the south-west and covering towns such as Moreton-in-Marsh, Bourton and Stow-on-the-Wold.
Eltham Crematorium
"All 210,000 records for one of London's biggest and busiest crematoria are now available online. As one of the capital's largest cremation facilities, it services a large part of south-east London including two London Borough areas, Bexley and Greenwich, together with the Dartford area in North West Kent. The records for Eltham comprise the most comprehensive range that Deceased Online has ever included for a crematorium.
"Digital scans of cremation registers typically include: name, address, marital status, cremation number, date of cremation, date of death, age, sex, denomination, occupation, applicant and death registration details. In addition, for the first time, we have included the map locations of ashes scattered or buried in the Crematorium grounds (where available).
"There are now nearly 1.5 million records for London on Deceased Online together with records for nearby Tunbridge Wells Cemetery and Kent & Sussex Crematorium."

The session included members of the Board of Regents, President Hamilton, General Counsel Parrish, and such other university staff members as the president may designate and lasted approximately ___hour(s).
IV. Authority to Approve a Memorandum of Understanding regarding University-Medical District in Anchorage, Alaska
Chancellor Gorsuch and Vice President Redman attended a "summit" work session in Juneau on Monday, April 9, 2001, culminating in a verbal understanding among "U-Med District" parties (Municipality of Anchorage, State of Alaska Department of Health and Social Services, Providence Hospital, University of Alaska Anchorage, Mental Health Land Trust (MHT), Representative Eldon Mulder, and Speaker of the House Brian Porter) regarding Alaska Psychiatric Institute (API) replacement funding and land reconfiguration/use. Representative Mulder requested a written assurance, in the form of a memorandum of understanding (MOU), that all U-Med District parties were agreeable to a proposed MHT land reconfiguration and API replacement plan prior to a Tuesday, April 17 appropriation bill introduction to provide the remaining $25 million to complete the API replacement. All parties agreed to the common "shared vision" and committed to creating an MOU document to memorialize this commitment.
Agreement Highlights:
At no contemplated cash cost, U/A expands land base by a minimum of acres with additional long-term potential to purchase 165additional acres from MHLT.
Partnerships are formed between Providence and API, and Providence and UAA. The Municipality in concert with UAA gains more options for a proposed "Transit Center" on the UAA campus and potential space for the Municipal Health Clinic. UAA gains master plan ability to provide for future campus growth through this arrangement.
Agreement Points:
1. All parties to agreement support replacement build of API on parcel "C" ("de-coupled" site adjacent/West of existing old API and behind S/E of McGlaughlin Youth Center).
2. Providence Hospital negotiates purchase of parcel "A" from MHLT (21 acre parcel located east and wrapping N/W of and including old/existing API with frontage on Providence Drive across from UAA bookstore PEF). Conditioned upon small API frontage respite care center building removal/relocation within eighteen months.
3. Providence Hospital trades parcel "A" to University in exchange for 7 acres of parcel "G" (U/A purchase in 1983 from APU, on N/E boundary of Providence Hospital campus, still leaving UAA 7+ acres of corner Bragaw/Providence for future development plus land for further dorm expansion N. of existing commons), and up to 4 acres of parcel "F" (UAA "triangle/stairstep" property bordering creek/greenbelt, behind/South of Providence Hospital, West of commons/housing). Providence needs both to accommodate their expansion plans and to comply with 30% building/land code ratio.
4. UA receives parcel "A" (21 acre existing/old API site) subject to/conditioned upon State obligation to fund and/or demolish, and clean up environmental issues related to the old API building/use. All parties will work to secure federal assistance including potential highway fund source if road access appropriate to bisect the parcel and improve U-Med access. The proposal is to extend Wright Street through the property and become the new property line separating parcel "C" from "A" connecting Tudor with Providence Drive at Seawolf Drive.
5. The State Department of Health & Social Services retains parcel "C" (40 acres W. of old API) for the benefit of McGlaughlin Youth Center, the new API building, and future expansion.
6. The MHLT retains parcel "E" (15 acre parcel W. of McGlaughlin, frontage to Lake Otis Parkway) for investment/development purposes, with U/A provided an opportunity to participate in competitive offerings to purchase said property for long term university educational purposes.
Many scenarios have been considered over the years and it now appears that we have consensus to reach a final agreement. Support from the University of Alaska will assist the various interests in gaining legislative appropriations to allow for the construction of a new API facility. Providing that sufficient legislative funding is secured for the new API facility, surplus land will be made available for UAA and Providence Hospital expansion.
The following attachments are included with this agenda for clarification:
1. Draft Memorandum of Agreement - Attachment A
2. Two (2) maps showing proposed U-Med District - Attachment B
3. "Building a University/Medical Community: Key Steps in a Shared Vision" document prepared by MHT, MHLT, Department of Health and Social Services, Providence Alaska Medical Center, and UAA, dated April 2001 - Attachment C
4. Memorandum of Understanding dated June 23, 1998 between MHLT, API, McGlaughlin Youth Center, Providence Health Systems, and UAA - Attachment D
The President recommends that:
"The Board of Regents approves the memorandum of understanding between the Mental Health Trust Authority, et al, and the University of Alaska regarding property adjacent to the University of Alaska Anchorage campus; and authorizes Vice President Beedle to approve and sign said memorandum of understanding. This motion is effective April 16, 2001."
V. Authority to Purchase University Center in Anchorage, Alaska
To provide for expansion and improved accessibility for UAA's Community and Technical College and improve availability for campus core instructional, science, research and student space the purchase of the University Center is recommended at an amount not to exceed $8.5 million for purchase and $6.5 minimum for initial renovation.
The purchase offer would be authorized, subject to a minimum $15 million legislative appropriation. This capital appropriation request would not take priority over the approximate $20 million of existing highest priority capital projects requested by the University in the normal budget request process.
Attached to the agenda is a hard copy of a power point presentation (Attachment E) prepared by the University of Alaska Anchorage which reviews program needs; programmatic benefits; benefits to the Community and Technical College, instructional programs, and research; the University Center review team; findings; and recommendations.
The President recommends that:
"The Board of Regents approves the purchase of University Center in Anchorage, Alaska as proposed, contingent upon legislative appropriation. This motion is effective April 16, 2001."
VI. Adjourn

Expanding the Electricity Market: A Good Choice for Consumers
Issues and Ideas Forum
Since 2008, the average price of electricity in Michigan has risen significantly, especially when compared to the average prices in other Midwest states and the nation as a whole. Nearly everyone is impacted by electricity rates — rising rates makes it harder for employers to hire more workers and for families to make ends meet. Dr. Ted Bolema, a Mackinac Center adjunct scholar and senior policy editor for the Mercatus Center in Washington, D.C., has been studying Michigan's energy policies for a decade, and he'll be the featured presenter at this upcoming Issues and Ideas Forum. Dr. Bolema will make the case for why Michigan needs to give Michigan electricity customers more options and eliminate requirements that they buy electricity through government-granted monopolies. Instead, the state should allow more energy firms to operate in the market, competing with the established firms to provide consumers with good service at a more competitive price.

OXFORD � An accident on Millbury Road left a motorcycle rider seriously injured Monday evening.
Neighbors said they heard a crash and ran outside to find a Japanese-made motorcycle against a tree and the rider, a young man, on the ground unresponsive. According to scanner reports, the accident occurred shortly before 7 p.m.
Patrick Jones said he found the man's cellphone and used it to call the first number, which turned out to be the victim's wife. He said he told her to go to UMass Memorial Medical Center � University Campus in Worcester, where the man was being taken.
"My sister (Lyndsay Jones) and our neighbor Ray (Raymond Desilets) were doing CPR," Mr. Jones said. "One of the people who stopped was a nurse."
Mr. Jones said the motorcyclist was wearing a helmet when they found him.
A police dispatcher Monday night said officers were investigating a crash in town but could not provide any further information.
At the scene nearly an hour after the accident, a motorcycle could be seen lying against a tree on a curve and accident reconstruction specialists worked at the scene.

compiled by Teresa Martin Klaiber
February 2012
When we begin a genealogy quest we concentrate on the individual, then the family unit. When researching census records we concentrate on the family unit and are introduced to the residents and neighbors that live in close proximity. As we delve into court records we are introduced to more people that have interacted with our subject through court proceedings. Some of these people may be related, some may be friends and a few may be foes. Finally, if we are lucky enough, we gaze with delight at photographs that give a glance into the every day life of our subject and usually shrug when we run across one of unrelated people that have been tossed into the mixture.
Among that ever growing multitude of people there may be one special person that played a significant role in your subject's life. There may also be stories handed down about these people. I wonder how many researchers take time to include that person with their genealogical data? How many try to validate all or part of the stories they may have heard about these unrelated people that held a close relationship with our subject?
This is the story, as I know it, of Oh Han Kook who played a role in the lives of three generations in my maternal family. Luckily I knew and loved him as a part of our family. From the time I could toddle my grandfather and parents told me the extraordinary story of Kook. By the time of his first visit I ran into his arms and delighted in the twinkle of his eyes and his soft voice as he called me "missy".
The family story tells of Oh Han Kook's birth in Korea [giving his birth as 1 January 1887 on legal documents]. From August 1910 until August 1945 Korea was occupied by Japan and to escape the situation, Oh Han Kook stowed away on a cargo ship only to find out it was destined for Japan. He again stowed away and eventually reached Hawaii.
The story continues that in due time he was befriended by Howard Clayton Feyler [my grandfather], Captain in the United States Dental Corps who trained him to be an orderly. He served at Schofield Barracks under Feyler until the family left the island and returned to the mainland. When the ship landed, Oh Han Kook had once again stowed away, this time to be with Captain Feyler and his family, who he considered his adopted family. The story, told and retold, said my grandfather managed to have Kook enlisted in the US Army.
Kook was stationed in San Antonio, Texas and I looked forward to letters and small gifts as I grew up. He gave me my first watch with a blue wrist band and when I was twelve he gave me my first radio. It was a big cream colored plastic desk radio that picked up several stations. When I turned 14 he provided me with my first portable radio. Over the years I realized that he called all of us -my grandmother, mother and aunt-"missy".
Letters were addressed to Sgt. Kook and I never gave a thought to the sequence of the story I had been told. I went off to college and on 10 January 1968 my family called to tell me he had died peacefully and would be buried in the National Cemetery in San Antonio. Among our many moves I have always carried a picture of Oh Han Kook with me.
The same picture hung in my grandmother's home and to this day hangs in my mother's home. When one of my dearest friend's moved to San Antonio I asked her if she would locate his grave in the National Cemetery. Not only did Denise locate the grave and photograph it for me, she honored him by placing flowers there.
Ft. Sam Houston Cemetery, Section X site 2595
I decided it was time to try and fill in a few of the gaps about Kook. Dr. Howard C. Feyler married Katherine Marie Halderman 30 November 1918 in Portsmouth, Scioto County, Ohio just after the close of the war. My grandfather had made 1st Lt. in the US Army Dental Corp in January 1918. They were married shortly before leaving for duty in Honolulu. Many of his military records have been lost so the exact date that he and his wife left for Hawaii is unknown. But prior to their move to Hawaii Oh Han Kook was already in Honolulu living on Incen Street as a cook for A. Vincent. On the 31st of July 1817 he filled out a World War I draft Registration card stating he was an alien from Chung Yang [as spelled on document], Korea. He was single and said he had 2 sisters and 1 brother.
From family stories, I knew that Kook was already in the household when my aunt was born in Honolulu 12 October 1919. He adored and tried to spoil her. On 10 April 1919 Kook became a naturalized citizen of the United States [Petition 938M, Vol M-4, certificate 1171340] while Hawaii was still a territory. Persons born in Hawaii after 30 April 1900 were native-born citizens of the United States.
On December 27, 1919 Katherine Halderman Feyler's parents, Dr. Stephen S. and Anna Gorath Halderman sailed on the SS Sachem to meet their baby granddaughter and were introduced to Oh Han Kook. They returned to the mainland in February 1920 on the SS Lurine. In June Feyler received his Captain's certificate.
My grandparents soon returned from Hawaii with toddler Betty in tow and settled back into life in Portsmouth, Ohio.
By 1930 Oh Han Kook was listed at Kelly Field in Texas. Texas became his home. His military headstone shows that he served our country in both World War I and World War II.
Kook re-enlisted several times during his career. NARA has created an "Electronic Army Serial Number Merged File ca. 1938-1946", Record Group 64 [AAD]which shows Kook's enlistment as Kelly Field in 1940. This would be a re-enlistment showing him still in the Dental Corp.
There is always more to a story. By definition an orderly is an attendant working in a hospital and can also be a soldier assigned to perform tasks for his superior officer. World War I was officially over in November 1918. His tombstone clearly states he served in World War I. Finally the juridical definition of a stowaway is an alien coming to the United States by plane or vessel without legal status. Kook was a citizen of the United States when he came to the mainland. My childhood memory is intact and I like the aura of mystery that still surrounds our unofficial family member. I am extremely proud of him and know his love of our family is undeniable. May his memory and his story remain with my family for many more generations.

Osteoporosis and braces
I am 60 years old and have been diagnosed with osteoporosis. I took Fosamax for approximately 2 to 3 years, but after learning about the osteonecrosis side effect, four years ago, I stopped the Fosamax.
I now take calcium and vitamin D supplements and I have had no fractures. Because of tooth pain from very crowded teeth which seem to be getting worse, I am considering braces.
Would the fact that I do have osteoporosis be a contraindication for braces? I am aware that some bone loss is typical when teeth are moved and I do not want to trade one problem for another.
You should see an orthodontist who has experience in treating patients with osteoporosis. See the American Association of Orthodontics web site for a list of practitioners in your area.

Big 12 M5: Opening Day EditionPosted by Nate Kotisso on November 8th, 2013
- Big 12 and college basketball fans alike: rejoice. Just days before the 2013 edition of the Champions Classic tip-off, ESPN announced that Kansas, Kentucky, Duke and Michigan State will continue the doubleheader series until at least 2016. For the last couple of years (and of course, Tuesday's blockbuster), the Champions Classic has been the perfect nightcap to an awesome day of college hoops. As far as the next three years will shake out for Kansas, they'll face Kentucky in 2014, Michigan State in 2015 and Duke in 2016. Did I forget to mention that today's opening day? The news lately has been prettay, prettay, prettay, prettay good.
- Good news on the Oklahoma recruiting front as the Sooners received a commitment from top 150 prospect Dante Buford. A three-star prospect from Arlington Country Day in Florida, Buford commanded offers from the likes of Miami, SMU, USC, Memphis and South Carolina. The news of Buford's pledge comes two weeks after fellow 2014 big man Khadeem Lattin committed to Lon Kruger's program despite holding offers from Georgetown, Arizona and Memphis, among many others. The Sooners may be stretched thin for big men this year, but fret not, help is on the way to Norman!
- Let's be honest, expectations for Texas this season aren't very high. But Burnt Orange Nation argues if the Longhorns are to surprise, it will come down to the play of their four big men. Those players — Cameron Ridley, Jonathan Holmes, Prince Ibeh and Connor Lammert — struggled mightily in certain areas during their freshmen (sophomore for Holmes) campaigns, but the opportunity for growth is still great. Ridley is a physical freak, Holmes led the team in rebounds, Lammert's shooting ability came to light when he started games late in the year, and Ibeh was second on the team in blocks behind Ridley. If they make serious strides in all of these areas, 2014-15 may look quite a bit better than you think right now.
- Kansas freshman Brannen Greene was rushed to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after taking a hit to the midsection during practice. It wasn't anything serious as Greene was taken there for precautionary reasons and released shortly thereafter. Head coach Bill Self still believes Greene will see action in tonight's season opener against Louisiana-Monroe. What we learned from this: Self is a tough coach, his players are tough, Kansas is still predicted to win the league, and water is wet. Man they're so good.
- Move over Cameron Crazies: the hottest, coolest and newest student section in college basketball is the Purple Haze at TCU. The TCU Student Basketball Committee announced the name for the student section last week and members of said student section will have opportunities regular students won't have. Head coach Trent Johnson said "The Haze" (feel free to use the nickname, TCU) will interact and build relationships with players. A point system has also been established that would enable two "Hazers" (you can use that too) who loyally attend home and away games who accumulate the most points will win two tickets to attend the 2014 Final Four at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. Sounds like a sweet gig if you can get it.

TV Exec Upset When Daughter Doesn't Want To Bring TV To College
from the your-lot-in-life dept
"Mom, you don't understand. I don't need it," her 19-year-old responded, saying she could watch whatever she wanted on her computer, at no charge....Perhaps it's time to recognize that more and more people don't need a TV?
"You're going to have a television if I have to nail it to your wall," she told her daughter, according to comments she made at a Reuters event this week. "You have to have one."

Attorney Taitz filed a NOTICE OF MOTION AND MOTION to Expedite authentication, MOTION for Issuance of Letters Rogatory for authenticity of Kenyan birth certificate filed by Plaintiff Alan Keyes PhD.
Barry's Kenyan B.C.??
Special Motion for leave
http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/blog1/ (site has been the target of hackers, proceed with caution — John)
True. But O Sr didn't abuse Dunham. I've read just about every article on them, him, his wives, his tribe, his family, et al. I don't think he ever even lived with Dunham.
The abuse started after he went back to Kenya. It was one of the things that surfaced more than a few times in other peoples' recollections of him, including Kezia's.
She said she stayed with him specifically because he never hit her, although she didn't like his womanizing and drinking.
It was his third wife, Ruth, that he abused, but what that abuse consisted of, I don't know. He was a full fledged drunken loser at that point.
"Obama Jr seems to have used "Barak", after visiting Kenya when meeting Barak Sr on his discovery tour, nearly only with black audiences. "
Barack Jr. didn't meet Barack Sr. in Kenya. Barack Sr. was already dead wasn't he?
FROM: http://www.college.columbia.edu/cct_archive/jan05/cover.php
...All my life, I had carried a single image of my father The brilliant scholar, the generous friend, the upstanding leader. That image had suddenly vanished, Obama wrote. Replaced by what? A bitter drunk? An abusive husband? A defeated, lonely bureaucrat? ....
Read Fred Nerks' posts on this thread http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2278969/posts, and consider the idealogy that groomed both Obama and his parents and grandparents.
This thing goes back decades. The more I read, the scarier it gets, especially when you also look at the commie socialist thugs he's put into high office.
Here's my biggest fear: that next year's election may be the last chance to take back the Republic.
They have control of the 2010 census. It will be managed by the White House. No way will it be done right. That means that the phantom population count will boost congressional seats in left-leaning geographical areas when Congress is reapportioned using the new numbers.
We have to stop this NOW.

Barack Jr. didnt meet Barack Sr. in Kenya. Barack Sr. was already dead wasnt he?
From The Obama Timeline:
The Obama Timeline: References
Obama may have made a 1980 trip to Kenya to visit his father. During that trip, he may also have visited Pakistan, and Indonesia (to visit his mother). It is likely, however, that the reports of a 1980 trip are mistaken, and Obamas only such trip was in 1981. [194, 195, 196]
On November 5, 1980, Ann Dunham is granted a divorce from Lolo Soetoro. The divorce decree states, The parties have 1 child(ren) below age 18 and 1 child(ren) above 18. This further suggests that Obama was adopted by Lolo Soetoro. (Dunhams attorney in the divorce, Gilardy H. William, Jr., later becomes the Hawaii attorney for the Democrat National Committee.) The divorce decree lists the names as Stanley Ann Soetoro and Lolo Soetoro. [719, 746]
During his college years, Obama maintains limited contact with his father, through correspondence, until his death in 1982. [271]
Probably in late 1980, Obama decides to stop using the name Barry Soetoro and returns to the name Barack Obama, Jr. Whether that was done legally through the courts is not known. [194]
Obama is disappointed in a grade he receives from political science Professor Roger Boesche, and complains he is being graded on a different curve because of his race. [20]
In 1981, Obama visits his mother and half-sister in Indonesia, and then continues to Karachi, Pakistan and Hyderabad, Pakistan, with his friends Mohammed Hassan Chandoo and Wahid Hamid, and finally to Kenya to visit his fathers family. (Most accounts suggest Obama visited Hyderabad, India, but he perhaps visited the city of the same name in Pakistan, a few hours drive from Karachi.) [23, 25, 26, 194, 195, 196, 245, 549]
Birth Certificates Continue to be Used as Breeder Documents and are Easy to Obtain
If one so desired to create an alias and drop back into "the grid", the FIRST step is to start with a fake birth certificate! For those wishing to do so, there were ways to do so in the 80s and before -- just like a teenager might acquire a Fake ID to buy booze. With computers and cheap color printers, it's even easier today.
Here's an excerpt that Obama may have read himself in an article from People Soup (1982 Issue, No 2) entitled, "So Ya Want To Run Away":
After reading this post by jbjd http://jbjd.wordpress.com/2009/08/09/rumors-lies-and-unsubstantiated-facts/
I looked up a copy of that image. At the top of the page the heading reads "Marriage Applications Births-—Deaths". It would seem to me if there was a marriage application it would have been in the paper....
This thing goes back decades. The more I read, the scarier it gets, especially when you also look at the commie socialist thugs hes put into high office.
Heres my biggest fear: that next years election may be the last chance to take back the Republic.
They have control of the 2010 census. It will be managed by the White House. No way will it be done right. That means that the phantom population count will boost congressional seats in left-leaning geographical areas when Congress is reapportioned using the new numbers.
We have to stop this NOW.
I agree with all you've written. And we need to start right now for 2010. One of the first things we need to do is to stop denigrating Republicans like Sarah Palin. Poison darts to anyone claiming to be a Republican who calls her a nit wit! I'm with Sarahcuda!
And what's more, we may ALL need to hold our noses and work hard for people whom we might not otherwise vote for.
It is going to be critical, when redistricting comes about as a result of the new census numbers, that we have as many Republican governors and Republican state legislators as possible, because they are the ones who will oversee how Congressional districts are laid out.
I am not a Republican. I have never seen a ballot that I can't split.
However, there is no viable third party, and we MUST get Obama's Dems out of power.
That means that I may have to vote for a Republican governor that I abhor here in Texas next year. We have two nitwits in the race.
These next few elections will not be a time for protest votes or to stay at home. The 2010 census, if manipulated as 0 will try, could put the socialists in power indefinately.
Not necessarily, if it was an Islamic wedding in Hawaii.
Additionally, any wedding that took place in Kenya under a Kadhi Court (Islamic)
would not be archived in the Hawaiian marriage certificate database.
A 1961 Islamic wedding (in Hawaii or Kenya) could even be that missing page from the 1964 Obama Divorce papers.
See the whole Obama 1964 divorce on Scribd.com or as 13 individual images below (in proper order):
Let's order a Hawaiian one, see what it looks like :P
Only because we are allowing the White House to take over the census. That was our first mistake. Where was the outrage then? It's not too late, take it away from them.
Next election is a year away, and the census will be over by then.
Unless the courts get involved, the census will be controlled by the Obama administration and its Democrat congress.
The Republicans that we elected need to raise hell. Let the courts get involved. The little cowards should have done it when this first happened. This will end up being the single biggest mistake that we made. We mumbled a little, so did the Republicans in DC, then we all just moved onto other things. I was stunned that the opposition was so weak, especially compared to what is at stake(like the entire future of our country). Shameful!
I made the following post several days ago & then never posted, thinking not relevent to board's discussion, but since BP2 raises issue, here it is. My purpose was to construct a scenerio that made SENSE ("sense" being the operative word) and best fit the few facts that we know, in keeping with what we have gleaned from the psychological makeup of all the parties involved.
Observations and a hypothetical to pick apart:
What I find curious is that Susan Blake says she saw Ann & baby 3rd week of Aug. 1961 in Washington and taught her to change diapers, (& this video is pulled out of existence) BUT
Mary Toutonghi said she baby sat for infant Obama "for two or three months, when he was seven months old"
Mary: "We managed the house and they had the rooms on the first floor to the right, immediately above the garage
. Each of the rooms on that floor comprised a one-bedroom apartment. I can't remember when she moved in, but the baby was seven months old."
"My daughter was 18 months old and she just had her 50th birthday this year," Toutonghi recalled. "So, that would make the time around February and March 1962."
Mary;s testimony is fairly specific. It seems unlikely that Ann & baby were actually living in WA until she moves into Mary's house when baby was 7mos old. Would she arrive with newborn, settle into an apt, only to move into another apt a few months later? Would Ann had to have actually been in Washington in 3rd week of Aug for extension courses? doubtful.
Corsi makes the following 2 statements (contradictory?) in article referenced by Natural Born:
"Obama's mother resurfaces in Seattle
Dunham's transcript from the University of Washington documents she was enrolled for two extension courses beginning Aug. 19, 1961:
The University of Washington has documented to WND that the summer quarter 1961 ended Aug. 18.
Fall quarter classes on campus began Sept. 25, 1961, with the university communicating to WND that Dunham's transcript reveals extension courses that appeared to involve a combination of independent study and night courses."
She can be enrolled Aug 19 without attending classes. Another Freeper aware of univ & time period under discussion said the place is deserted that time of year.
Neither Mary or Susan place Obama, Sr with Ann when they see her with newborn BHO or 7mos BHO..
Why did family move to Hawaii? Expensive move. I do not buy the "father Stanley had a good job prospect at a big furniture store" theory. Assuming that she did not get pregnant in Washington (necessitating the move to Hawaii), I keep thinking about something Fred Nerks said about CPUSA relocating people.
If Susan and Mary are to be believed (as disinterested parties) we know -— for a fact-—that BHO was 7 mos old in Feb/Mar 1962.
Set aside, for a moment, all of BHO's verbal & written narrative (an important point because narrative is a critical theme for Obama (he said Dems lost to Repubs because Dems didn't have a NARRATIVE); his narratives have dual purpose, one of which functions as sleight-of-hand)-— what testimony is there of Ann's & Obama's relationship? I can only remember Abercrombie (& we do not consider him a disinterested party).
Assume for a moment that 1) she did not want to move to Hawaii; I think there is testimony from friends that she was upset that her father would not let her go to U of Chicago; 2) after apologizing all her life that she was Stanley because her father wanted a boy, she now decides to introduce herself as Ann.
3) She is ready to cut loose, but she is still tethered. She starts U of Hawaii, meets Obama, gets pregnant quickly. 4) Assume, on her part at least, that their relationship was sexual infatuation and not love, and that prospects of a baby interrupt her educational plans.
5) Abortion is out of the question and whether she wants a marriage or not, so is marriage because Obama is legally married in Kenya. As BP2 has said several times, for them to marry in Hawaii constitutes bigamy.
Here's the hypothesis: What if all the actions taken (and not taken) are to give the baby his (or, a) father's name. Had she had the baby in Hawaii, could she do that? BUT if they go to Kenya, they can marry (him, tribally; her legally?) and get a birth certificate with Obama as the father.
I don't think there is any evidence any of Obama's family ever met Ann, so perhaps they never went to his village (family would not have even needed to know Obama was ever there). Kezia was in Nairobi (if she knew they were, she would be the only Kenyan having to keep a secret). Obama promises he will return after his education.
Ann, Obama, and baby leave Africa-— Ann & baby headed for Seattle, where she can register for school, and Obama for Hawaii to start new semester. If the plan was to get a Hawaii birth certificate, Ann then goes to Hawaii, takes care of business, and goes back Seattle to school to settle into Winter semester (when baby is 7mos old)
With Kenyan birth certificate, a Hawaii birth certificate can be obtained with Obama as father. The marriage date/place on divorce papers is fictitious & disguises facts that they married so close to due date in Kenya. No harm because it has been pointed out that at that time in Hawaii one could get a legal divorce without having been legally married. And that is another fact we know for sure -— Ann & Obama got a legal divorce.
Nothing of this is revelatory, but I have tried to think of a working scenario that best fits only the facts we know (without BHO's narrative) and the motives that may have been operative in all the players involved.

Every member of the Supreme Court, every member of congress, every member of the Joint Chiefs, most members of the DOD, CIA, FBI, Secret Service and state run media, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, PBS, NPR, MSNBC, Fox and print news, knows that Barack Hussein Obama does NOT meet Article II Section I constitutional requirements for the office he holds. By his own biography, there is NO way he can pass the test. The hard evidence is so far beyond overwhelming, it is ridiculous.
But not ONE member of Americas most powerful people will dare confront Obama and his anti-American cabal on the subject. The Constitution does NOT stand.
Half of the people you expect to stop this insanity are quiet co-conspirators in the silent coup. The other half is paralyzed by fear, motivated only by political self-preservation.
Americans keep asking what they can do because they see that none of their leaders are doing anything to stop the demise of their beloved country. Its the right question, because those leaders are NOT going to stop this thing.
A brave few This is how it was in the beginning, how it has always been and how it will be.
DR. ORLY TAITZ, Phil Berg and Gary Kreep, ALL OF WHOM HAVE MADE DEFENDING THE CONSTITUTION AND THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE A PERSONAL AMBITION, IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY CONSTITUTION LEADERSHIP.
A PRECIOUS FEW, BUT THEY EXIST and the walls are indeed closing in on Obama and his evil cabal. IF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FAIL TO GET BEHIND THESE BRAVE FEW WHO ARE SEEKING PEACEFUL REDRESS, ALL THE PEACEFUL OPTIONS WILL EVAPORATE AS IF THEY NEVER EXISTED. WE WILL RETURN TO A PRE-1776 AMERICA OVERNIGHT..
Do YOU fear Obama?
A precious few, indeed. Lets get behind those few brave patriots who are out there in the trenches every day working to prove Obamas inelgibility:
Dr. Orly is the ONLY one out there in the trenches EVERY day hitting Obama on multiple fronts and trying to bring him down. It is reported that she is more than $8,000 in debt from using her own funds for expenses in her flights across the U.S for interviews, speeches, serving papers and meeting with officials!
Todays radio interview in Israel with Dr. Orly.
Discusses bc, Obama not elgible due to being British citizen, death threats, Obots tampering with her car:
Dr. Orly Taitz storms Israel making a clear case for Obama (TV)
inelgibility- Obama is a British citizen.
Dr. Orlys official website:
Or Dr. Orlys blog:
The pictures aren't pretty, not even sexy IMHO. She looks drunk out of her mind and like she's been caught unaware. She's not really "posing". There is a professional quality to them (one of FMD's skills) and they had to be developed and printed privately -- no film prcessor would return those to the customer. They'd call the police instead.
And then there is the book he wrote about the seduction and sex education of an underage girl named Anne. He congratulated himself and his wife for giving Anne a sound education from caring people and that once awakened she "begged" for it -- came by the house daily and "begged" for it.
Did I mention that the whole concept of FMD, his "blond, buxom wife", and Stanley Ann engaged in any form of sex is absolutely nauseating to me? Twosome, threesome. hetero, homo. It's all nauseating and very, very sad. And very UNLIKE the normal for 1960.
Last fall the blogger named Zombie did some investigating of 0's Columbia years and came to some rather frustrating conlusions because there was little evidence if any that he was living the life described in Dreams. (I hope this doesn't come out with lots of strange letters and stuff because I'm pasting it out of a Word document.)
The Obama campaign declined to discuss Obama's time at Columbia and his friendships in general. It won't, for example, release his transcript or name his friends. It did, however, list five locations where Obama lived during his four years here: three on Manhattan's Upper West Side and two in Brooklyn - one in Park Slope, the other in Brooklyn Heights. His memoir mentions two others on Manhattan's Upper East Side. In about 1982, Siddiqi and Obama got an apartment at a sixth-floor walkup on East 94th Street.
That's seven different locations in total.
However, a quick perusal of the phone books from the period suggest otherwise — that Obama moved into that 94th Street apartment shortly after first arriving, and stayed there the rest of the time while in New York: This page from the 1982 Manhattan phonebook lists "B. Obama" as living at 339 East 94th St. (The 1982 directory is the first one Obama could have appeared in, since the 1981 directory was printed before Obama's arrival.)
Yet this page, from the 1985 Manhattan phonebook, shows that he was still living at the same address — even having the same phone number. And he was in the following year's directory as well, still at 339 East 94th St.
How could that be? As Obama's campaign said in the quote above, and as Obama details in Dreams From My Father, he moved several times while in New York, sometimes sharing a room with others.
The only feasible explanation would be that Obama rented the 339 East 94th St. apartment (shown here), and then moved out while subleasing it to others, still maintaining the apartment and the phone in his name. And while acting as a sort of freelance landlord, collecting renting from his sublessors, he was still broke and kept having to move from place to place himself.
But seriously: How likely is that? It's much more likely that Obama simply stayed in this one location the entire time, and later concocted a tale of being poor and itinerant as part of some narrative about his rise from poverty, or something along those lines.
Zombie also includes photos of some of the alleged residences and the phone directory pages.
This just adds more to the mound of 0's lies and misrepresentations about his life.

STOCKTON - McNair put away its opponent with suffocating defense in the first 4 minutes on Friday in the semifinal round of its McNair Winter Shootout girls basketball tournament.
STOCKTON - McNair put away its opponent with suffocating defense in the first 4 minutes on Friday in the semifinal round of its McNair Winter Shootout girls basketball tournament.
The Eagles advanced to the championship with a 68-40 win over Calaveras and will play Palo Alto-Gunn for the title at 3 p.m. today. Calaveras plays Lincoln for third place at noon.
The Redskins (8-2) often found themselves trapped by McNair's pressure defense by the time they reached midcourt and trailed 18-4, prompting oach Mike Lewis to call a timeout less than 4 minutes into the game.
"They are a good team and it was difficult for us," Lewis said. "I'm just happy to hold them under 70 (points) because they are averaging something like 80 points per game."
Mandy Coleman led the Eagles (10-0) with 28 points and played mostly point guard at 6-foot-4. She brought the ball up as the tallest player on the floor and got the offense started before slipping inside. Kiara Williams scored 12 points.
"(Coleman) is being recruited by some top-25 schools because of the way she can handle the ball at her size," McNair coach Anthony Matthews said. "She's worked really hard over the summer on that."
Kaley Garcia led Calaveras off the bench with nine points, all 3-pointers in the fourth quarter. Brianna McGinnis had eight points.
McNair scored 27 points off turnovers.
Letty Infante led the Pumas (7-4) with 28 points and Jazlyn Meletino-faga scored 13 points. Excel led the Lions (2-11) 19-2 after the first quarter.
Taylor Miller led the Lions with 11 points. Linden plays Bear Creek at 2 p.m. today, and Excel Academy plays Stagg in the consolation championship at 10:30 a.m.
Miranda Miner led Stagg (5-8) with 15 points and made a key steal with 45 seconds remaining. She was fouled and made 1 of 2 free throws to score the game's final points. Mia Gonzalez made two free throws shortly before that and finished with nine points. Alijah Turner had 11 points. Sopanha Mao led Bear Creek (6-5) with 14 points, including four 3-pointers. Ashlyn Jones had 13 points.
Ashlyn Crenshaw led Lincoln (4-5) with 19 points followed by Danielle Pacheco with 10 points. Zoe Zwerling led Gunn (7-2) with 19 points.

An insightful quote on interiors by William Morris continues to resound today. It pays, the textile designer said, to have nothing in your home that you do not either believe to be beautiful, or know to be useful. As an increasing number of homeowners are realising, rattan is one of few home decor trends capable of ticking both boxes. Once a staple found in the most modern of homes, the multifaceted material fell mysteriously out of favour in the 1980s. Now, after appearing at the prestigious Parisian design fair Maison & Objet last year, it's making a long-awaited comeback.
The environment is a salient topic in the world of interior design. Cutting-edge materials should be sustainable, innovators in the industry believe, while exuding an eco-friendly feel. Once again, rattan fits the mould.
Bringing the outdoors indoors is a technique favoured by environmentally conscious designers. By including eco materials into your interior decor, you can forge a connection with nature that will resound throughout your property.
Tactile weaves
Part of the appeal of rattan is its versatility. Not only can the sturdy material be crafted into unusual shapes, it can also be weaved into entrancing patterns. While rattan's most popular use in home decor is for constructing furniture, particularly wicker chairs, it's also aesthetically pleasing as wall art.
Strong lines
Rattan can be crafted into some spectacular shapes but is particularly effective when used to create confident lines, evoking an idea of Bauhaus design. Look out for furnishings with elongated arms, exaggerated backs and soft curves for the most up-to-date take on this throwback trend.
As a rule, it pays to offset the complexity of your rattan furniture with the rest of your home's decor. Pared-down, minimal interiors welcome this bold, outlandish design. Conversely, the inclusion of understated pieces made from the material can provide busy spaces with a sense of balance.
Retro inspiration
As rattan first became popular in the 1970s, it offers modern interior designers ample opportunity to experiment with styles from this era.
Rattan also complements vibrant floral hues and striking prints. Those eager to build on the eco theme can even work real flowers into their designs. Climbing plants such as ivy and sweet peas look fantastic when threaded through rattan fixtures – indoors or outdoors.
Tapping into trends
Incorporating the latest interior design into your property could be the key to unlocking success in the real-estate market. It pays large dividends to keep a finger on the pulse of the home decor world, particularly when you're sprucing up a property for sale. The resurgence of a material such as rattan highlights an opportunity for property owners to place themselves a step ahead of the competition.
As a leader in the property industry, Engel & Völkers has a wealth of experience advising homeowners on how to incorporate the latest trends into their interior design.

N.C. firm to pitch pay-per-throw in ManchesterBy BILL SMITH
New Hampshire Union Leader
February 20. 2014 11:08PM
MANCHESTER — A Raleigh, N.C., outfit came to Manchester this week and proclaimed there's gold in them 'thar hills of rubbish.
Waste Zero, a company that profits from running pay-as-you-throw rubbish disposal programs in cities and towns around the country, pitched an aldermanic committee on the idea of a trash collection program that would force residents to buy official trash bags at a cost that would include a trash collection fee on top of the cost of the bag.
The company's vice president and head salesman, Stephen Lisauskas, said a paid rubbish pick-up system would cut the current rubbish collection rate of 870 pounds of trash per person by 44 percent or more. He said the city's 14 percent recycling rate could increase to 31 percent within a couple of months of instituting a trash fee.
Typical fees for official trash bags that would be required for curbside pick-up would be in the neighborhood of $2 per bag.
The committee decided to set up a series of meetings in different sections of the city to allow the company to make its pitch directly to residents.
Lisauskas, a former Springfield, Mass., city manager, orchestrated a prepared presentation in which he said promotes "fairness" in which people who recycle don't cover the rubbish disposal costs for families that don't.
That idea brought a quick response from Ward 7 Alderman William Shea.
"You could use that argument for schools or for police or fire, whatever, where people would say, 'We don't use them,'" Shea said. "That's not a very sound type of judgment because you're equating one type of usage in a society in lieu of the others."
But Lisauskas countered that there is a difference between rubbish disposal — which he said provides a service based on use — and public safety, which provides a benefit by merely existing.
There was no public comment period at the committee meeting. But a few minutes later, one resident took advantage of the public comment period at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen.
"I think that is a bad idea overall; it has been defeated in the past, I hope that it would be defeated again," Tammy Simmons of Park Street said of pay-as-you-throw.
Another sort of trash fee could be imposed much sooner in Manchester. Last year, the city began charging for bulk items picked up at curbside. Now, health officials have floated the possibility of extending the charge to items brought to the Dunbarton Road drop-off center. Mark Gomez, who recently took over as environmental programs manager for the city Health Department, told aldermen that charging for dropped-off bulk waste items could raise $25,000 a year for the city.
Gomez and Health Director Timothy Soucy said that since the city started charging for bulk item pick-up while allowing free drop off, people are simply transporting their own bulk items.
The Health Department has also suggested charging fees for old televisions, monitors and computers — a category of rubbish now known as E-waste.
Right now, the city handles whatever electronic junk residents bring in. The cost reached $65,000 per year a couple of years ago, although the city found recyclers willing to cart off the E-waste for free last year. "We're incurring costs and we're charging zero," Soucy said. "2013 was the only year that it didn't cost us anything."
Exact fees for bulk and electronic waste disposal remain under consideration. As with pay-as-you-throw, any proposal to start charging for dropping off bulk items or outdated electronics would require adoption of an ordinance.

What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this based-on-a-true-story black comedy centers on a man (played by Jim Carrey) who leaves his family and becomes an unapologetic con man to support a self-indulgent life of shopping, partying, and sex. He eventually lands in prison, where he falls madly in love with a fellow male inmate. While there's little nudity (some glimpses of male backsides), there are several highly suggestive sex scenes -- both gay and straight -- and lots of explicit language, including "f--k," "s--t," and some homophobic slurs. The main character's devotion to his object of affection is clear, but the often criminal lengths he goes to for love hardly qualify him for role model of the year.
Messages: Although it's arguably heartwarming to see the lengths that Steven will go to for the love of his life, ultimately the movie sends the message that you can do anything in the name of love -- even lie, cheat and steal.
Role models: Con man Steven is charming, successful, and completely without scruples or guilt. He will lie to anyone if he thinks it will get him something he wants, and he usually pulls it off. He's fun to watch, but he's anything but a role model.
Violence: A car accident and a violent prison beating, both of which leave their victims bloody and battered.
Sex: Some brief nudity, including naked men seen from behind in a shower and a man's nude backside during sex. There are also several sex scenes, both gay and straight, that don't include nudity but do feature very obvious thrusting. Also obvious suggestions of oral sex and lots of suggestive dialogue.
Language: Frequent language includes "f--k," "s--t," "bulls--t," "ass," "p---y," "c--k," "hell," "crap," "damn," "oh my God," "goddamn," "whore," and "d--k." Many scenes also include explicit sexual dialogue and some disparaging comments about homosexuals.

John Habib's City Sports: This week's rivalry final is BG-Trinity
By JOHN HABIB
New Hampshire Union Leader
Championship Saturday
At Lundholm Gymnasium, UNH
Division II:
No. 1 Pembroke vs. No. 7 Souhegan, noon
Division I:
No. 1 Trinity vs. No. 7 Bishop Guertin, 3 p.m.
One week ago, the buzz around Manchester centered on that day's Division I boys' hockey final, which pitted Central against Memorial in the first meeting of two city public-school teams for a state championship in that sport.
Today, the buzz is about hoops instead of hockey.
Two Greater Manchester teams, St. Anselm and Southern New Hampshire University, join intrastate rival Franklin Pierce on the first day of the NCAA Division II Men's Basketball East Regional at SNHU Fieldhouse while Trinity High represents the city in an all-Catholic-school showdown with Bishop Guertin of Nashua for the NHIAA boys' basketball Division I championship at the University of New Hampshire's Lundholm Gymnasium.
Trinity and BG tip off at 3 p.m., after the Division II final between unbeaten Pembroke Academy and Souhegan of Amherst.
The Catholic-school pairing may not have quite the intensity of Manchester's or Nashua's intracity rivalries, but as state finals match-ups go, BG-Trinity - a rematch of the 2011 Division I championship, won by the Cardinals, 54-46 - is pretty good.
"We met them two years ago in the state championship game, and they beat us," said Trinity coach Dave Keefe. "We have some players back from that game, and we hope to redeem ourselves."
There are no Manchester residents on Bishop Guertin's varsity roster and no Nashua kids playing for Trinity, but the two schools - separated by only 24 miles - draw students from common territory, particularly along the Everett Turnpike corridor between the state's two largest cities. BG's roster, for example, includes one player each from the Manchester border town of Bedford and nearby Merrimack.
Both teams are also rich in basketball tradition.
Manchester's Bishop Bradley High won three boys' Class L titles before it and two other Catholic schools combined to establish Trinity in 1970. In 1975 and 1976, Trinity won consecutive state titles under coach Don Beleski, with Dan Duval and Peter Reilly the common links between teams that also featured such players as Greg Wenger, Kevin Allen, Tim Fahey, Ed Schibblehute and the Paul brothers, Ron and Andy.
Bishop Guertin didn't emerge as a Division I title contender until the mid-80s, after Tyler Page took over as coach. That's when Skip Barry, who would go on to play for Boston College, emerged as one of the state's outstanding players.
In the 1984 Class L final, which still ranks among the top New Hampshire basketball championships ever played, Barry (34 points) and Portsmouth High's James Best (21 points) were terrific in leading their respective squads. Portsmouth won the title, 59-46, but Barry left his mark, setting NHIAA records for most points by a player in a Class L tournament (94), most points in a final, most field goals in a championship game (17) and most field goals in one tourney (38).
The next season, BG met Trinity in the 1985 semifinals, and Trinity emerged with a 52-50 victory. Trinity snapped a seven-game losing streak to that point against BG. That Beleski-led Trinity squad featured James McDonald, Brian Harrington, Frank McBride, Craig Guindon and Dave Wenger. The Pioneers ended up beating Dover 61-58 for the state title.
In 1986, Bishop Guertin entered the finals against rival Nashua with a 23-0 record, but Nashua had the state's best player in St. Anselm College-bound Chris Madigan, who led the Purple Panthers to a 66-65 upset victory and the Class L title.
The Cardinals next reached a final in 2002, only to lose to Nashua again, 75-55. Finally, they broke through and won their first Division I title against Trinity two years ago.
Now Keefe is the first coach since 1964 to lead a Division I program to five state championship games over a seven-year period. In 2007 and 2008, the Pioneers lost to Salem. In 2009, the Pioneers beat Memorial, 50-25, with a lineup including Jordan Laguerre, Richard Madol, Dylan Clark, Cormac Fitzpatrick, Komut Gabriel, Phil Hayden and Nate Valentine.
Now Keefe's son, Patrick, returns to Durham for the third straight time along with two other teammates from the 2011 championship loss to BG, Carmen Giampetruzzi and Mabor Gabriel.
After Trinity's 60-58 semifinal win over Nashua South on Tuesday, Giampetruzzi said of today's game, "We can get some revenge."
Bishop Guertin coach Jim Migneault said he understands where Giampetruzzi is coming from.
"He's a great competitor, a great athlete who wants to win," Migneault said. "We also want to win. We'll see what happens."

K2H, thanks for providing the service of saying what we all really think, but restrain ourselves from typing in public. Between you and Flight Time, I can always count on the fact that the rage of the younger me (that is still somewhere in the back of my mind) is always expressed.
Sorry for encouraging the BS bleed over. It is never a good idea to feed the trolls. Having a few drinks right now and thought it was amusing.

Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering
"Technology Serving Humanity"
Goodarz Ahmadi, Dean and Distinguished University Professor; John Moosbrugger, Associate Dean for Academic Programs; Susan Powers, Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies
In our modern technological society, engineers and scientists must work together with a variety of other professionals in seeking solutions to complex problems. Revolutionary advances in applied science and technology have broadened the horizons of engineering. At the same time, these advances have created a multitude of challenging multidisciplinary problems in virtually every sphere of human activity.
The role of engineers in today's society has become more and more complex. Engineers require not only a knowledge of mathematics and the associated sciences for finding solutions to problems, but at the same time must be aware of the broad social, economic, political, and environmental implications of their ventures. The engineering programs at Clarkson are designed to provide students with a foundation in science, engineering, humanities, and management. Our goal is to enable Clarkson graduates to make significant contributions in their chosen fields while at the same time recognizing their responsibilities to society under the motto of "technology serving humanity."
In preparing students to become effective contributors to society and industry, Clarkson University has developed an award-winning program called SPEED (Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design). SPEED projects, including FIRST Robotics and Mini-Baja, encompass multidisciplinary approaches to solving real-world problems. Not only do the SPEED projects involve design and fabrication, they also incorporate marketing, public relations, technical communications, and management resulting in teams being made up of engineering, business, science, and liberal arts students. The Coulter School also provides opportunities for research experience for undergraduates (REU). These programs offer opportunities for students to amass the necessary "real-world" experiences and professional skills through several engineering design projects and research experiences.
In spring 2002, Clarkson announced that the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation had made a $30 million commitment to the University in support of ongoing excellence in its engineering and science programs. This gift reinforces and broadens Clarkson's most successful learning and research activities in support of the theme "Technology Serving Humanity."
Clarkson's School of Engineering has been named the Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering in recognition of the Foundation's generous gift and the late Wallace Coulter's dedication to the University as a trustee. Wallace H. Coulter was a renowned inventor and entrepreneur. He became acquainted with Clarkson through his collaboration with colloid scientists on the faculty. In 1979 he received an honorary doctorate, and he served as a trustee of the University from 1983 to 1989. Through the years he maintained close connections with Clarkson, supporting research projects and establishing an endowed scholarship.
The grant funds five key areas: team project-based learning activities; endowed chairs and endowed fellowships; a new program in rehabilitation engineering; upgrades to laboratory facilities; and scholarships for both minority students and women from developing countries pursing a degree in engineering. Growth in these evolving areas will complement and reinforce the programs and curricula described in this catalog.
The Coulter School of Engineering comprises the Departments of Chemical and Biomolecular, Civil and Environmental, Electrical and Computer, and Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering.
The eight-semester undergraduate degree granted in engineering is the Bachelor of Science (B.S.), with specialization in one of the seven EAC/ABET-accredited curricula — aeronautical, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, mechanical, or software and a new program in environmental engineering. See Clarkson's home page at www.clarkson.edu/engineering.
A candidate for the bachelor's degree must not only pass all prescribed courses in one of the eight-semester engineering curricula, but must also meet all of the other graduation requirements and Clarkson Common Experience requirements.
The first two semesters are identical in the undergraduate engineering curricula. Therefore, students may defer the selection of a major field of study until the sophomore year. Beginning with the junior year, a significant amount of specialized material is incorporated into each curriculum. In the senior year, coursework is concentrated in the student's chosen field. Courses in humanities and social sciences are taken throughout the four-year program as part of the Clarkson Common Experience.

Introduction to Engineering
*Knowledge Area or University Course Electives
There are a total of five courses which must be taken to cover six knowledge areas. At least one of these courses must be a university course. University courses are interdisciplinary courses that cover two or more knowledge areas. One of the knowledge area electives must be an economics course, EC350 is required for most degrees.
*Information Technology component
Students in the Class of 2010 and later - see Academic Requirements for details of the Clarkson Common Experience including the First-Year Seminar, Knowledge Area (KA) courses, University Courses (UC), and related requirements.
Minors and Professional Concentrations
Clarkson's engineering curricula contain a number of elective courses. Furthermore, many students have room for additional courses through advanced placement, overloading, and by taking courses in the summer. Therefore, engineering students, in consultation with their advisors, have an opportunity to formulate academic programs that reflect individual interests, career goals, and areas of professional specialization. See Professional Concentrations in Engineering and Minors and Concentrations.
Engineering Studies
Some students entering the School of Engineering are not sure which academic discipline to pursue. These students may choose the Engineering Studies Program. A Director of Engineering Studies and support faculty serve as advisors to these students and assist them in selecting curricula. For additional information, consult with the associate dean of Engineering for Academic Programs at 315-268-6446. The Engineering Studies classification provides students with an opportunity to learn more about various programs within the School of Engineering prior to selecting a specific program. Undergraduates may choose between; Aeronautical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Software Engineering.
Combined B.S. Engineering /MBA or ME/MBA Programs
By proper selection of electives, in five years a Clarkson student can receive a B.S. in engineering and a master's degree in either engineering or business administration. This may require course overloads in some semesters and/or attendance at summer school. Interested students should consult the School of Business.
Pre-Medicine, Pre-Dentistry, and Pre-Veterinary Programs
Students may earn a degree in any major program and also prepare for careers in health sciences. Students interested in preparing for professional schools in dentistry, medicine or veterinary science should contact the Pre-Medical Sciences Advisory Committee in the Dean's Office in the School of Arts & Sciences at 315-268-6544.
Pre-Physical Therapy Leading into the Professional Physical Therapy Graduate Program
Students interested in preparing for entrance into Clarkson's Doctor of Physical Therapy degree program should call the Associate Dean for Health Sciences at 315-268-3786.
Pre-law advising is available for engineering students to help them develop academic programs that will serve as a strong foundation for future legal studies. A list of pre-law advisors is available through the Director of Undergraduate Programs in the School of Business. The advisors provide counseling and information about law schools and careers in law. To foster a sense of professionalism and a better understanding of careers in law, interested students are encouraged to participate in Clarkson's Pre-Law Society.
Honors Program
Clarkson offers a four-year undergraduate University Honors Program for exceptionally talented students in any major. For more information, call the director at 315-268-2290.

By Maurisse Johnson
Look, we are all sick to death in Jetland, I'm one of them. But after all of the media hoopla with the circus and buttgate the facts of rebuilding any NFL team remains the same; you hit on drafting an NFL QB or the rare exception of trading for one (Brees) then you're playing the game going downhill and your opponents are playing uphill.
It's a clear and distinct advantage. If you look at the last 10 Super Bowl winners they have all had a Franchise type QB at the helm with the exception of one, Tampa & Brad Johnson.
The list of QB's that have won the last 10 SB's excluding Brad Johnson; Brady, Roethlisberger, P. Manning, E. Manning, Brees, & Rodgers.
If you add any of those QB's to the Jets over the last 4 seasons and some may go back to 6 years you would most likely see the Jets appear in at least 1 Super Bowl and very easily 2 with the defense the Jets had in the first two years of the Ryan era.
So while multiple blogs and postings sway on which GM and OC we should be aligned with, the fact for me remains if you hit on a Franchise QB the rest of your roster and front office falls into place. Marginal players and executives become great players and front office personal with a Franchise QB and the team brand becomes winners.
If anyone doubts this, looks at each of those SB winning teams over the last 10 years before they obtained a Franchise QB. They all were average or worse.
So while players even great ones have come and gone (Martin, Abraham etc) without a Franchise QB in todays game, the Jets and any Franchise will go no where.
The likelihood of that happening this year via the draft or FA is really slim. I'm all for a new GM and regime. I think the Jets need to start fresh, but without a Franchise QB it really doesn't matter.

Check out these photos of elite female athletes, ranging from a 95-pound gymnast lady to a 6'5″ basketball player lady to a 297-pound weightlifter lady. It's kind of neat, all the phenotypes of humanity, like looking at a lineup of jack russell terriers and rottweilers.
Couple things stand out to me: first, almost every woman in the lot, regardless of her size and proportion of body fat, has tight knees (ie, her knees are smaller than her calves). In the general population, soft knees (legs taper smoothly from thigh to ankle, or inner sides of knees pop towards each other) are really common- apparently not so much in the sports world, at least in this admittedly small sample size. The other thing I notice is that among this group, most of the women whose sports have a performance component (gymnasts, aerobics, etc) have pointed their toes for these photos, striking a definite pose. You can really tell the ones whose sports incorporate dance- they're making pretty feet.

As Congress confronts a potential federal shutdown Tuesday and an Oct. 17 deadline to extend the government's ability to borrow money, what to watch for:
—The House: Early Sunday, the Republican-led House approved a bill incorporating their latest additions to a must-pass government funding bill: a one-year delay in the nation's new health care law and permanent repeal of a tax on medical devices as the price for preventing a shutdown. The GOP's initial missive would have completely "defunded" implementation of "Obamacare."
—The Senate: Convenes at 2 p.m. EDT Monday, 10 hours before a shutdown would begin. Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is expected to quickly move to kill the House legislation, a step that is not subject to a filibuster and permits majority Democrats to easily dispatch it. The Senate voted Friday to pass a "clean" bill to keep the government running.
—The House: Convenes at 10 a.m. EDT Monday, but awaits Senate action. GOP leaders say that once they receive the Senate bill, the House will bounce another measure right back to the Senate, but they haven't said what it will contain.

LA JOLLA, Calif., Jan. 24 (UPI) -- Defending FedEx Cup champion Brandt Snedeker fired a 7-under 65 Thursday that gave him a share of the lead one round into the Farmers Insurance Open.
K.J. Choi also shot a 65 and joined Snedeker with a one-shot cushion on the cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Torrey Pines course.
Choi's round was shot on the South Course, a former U.S. Open host and the more difficult of the two used for this week's tournament. Most of the day's low scores were fired on the North Course, which is almost 1,000 yards shorter than its neighboring layout.
Snedeker won last year's Tour Championship, which gave him the $10 million bonus that goes to the FedEx Cup winner each season. That achievement has vaulted him to the No. 8 spot in the world rankings.
Tied for second after the first round at 66 were Josh Teater, Adam Hadwin, Luke List, Ross Fisher, Billy Horschel, Charles Howell III, Mike Weir and Scott Stallings -- all of whom played on the North Course.
Stallings took a five-shot lead into the final round at last week's event in the California desert, but faltered and wound up missing out on a playoff won by Brian Gay. Howell was a participant in the playoff, but failed in his bid to win for the third time on the PGA Tour.
Weir, the 2003 Masters champion, did not survive the cut in any of the 14 tournaments in which he played in 2012.
Gay is not playing this week, nor is Sony Open champion Russell Henley.
Tiger Woods, who missed the cut last week in his season debut on the European Tour, shot a 68 on the South Course and was tied for 20th place. Phil Mickelson settled for a 72 on the North Course in a round that included four bogeys.
Mickelson drew attention last week when he hinted he would have something dramatic to say at Torrey Pines concerning the amount of taxes he currently has to play, but when he arrived at this tournament he declared he was sorry he had ever say anything to start with and was dropping the subject.

LONDON, June 22 ? The incubation period for human prion diseases such as variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob (CJD) may be longer than 60 years, according to researchers who studied the closely related disease kuru in former cannibals in New Guinea.
The findings suggest that an epidemic of variant CJD could crop up decades from now, with the aging of people who in the 1990s consumed beef from cows infected with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also known as mad-cow disease, wrote John Collinge, Ph.D., a professor of neurology at University College London, and colleagues in Australia and Papua New Guinea.
In fact, the incubation period for variant CJD could be even longer than that of kuru, the investigators wrote in the June 24 issue of The Lancet, because of a species-barrier effect that typically slows the rate of interspecies transmission.
Dietary exposure of the British population to BSE prions has been widespread, they wrote. The cattle epidemic is thought to have affected two million animals. Cattle BSE has also been reported in most European Union countries, Israel, Switzerland, Canada, the U.S, and Japan. So far, about 160 variant CJD patients have been identified in Britain, with cases also reported in France, Italy, Ireland, The Netherlands, Canada, Japan, and the U.S.

I never realized this until now but you must not stop "clicking away" when you go to Pari, Carol ;-) I wonder how many pictures you bring back after each trip, and most importantly, how and when you organize them. Do you have a "red" folder; a "children shoes" folder; a "brand name shoe folder"??? Very intriguing... Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)ReplyDelete
FYI Veronique,ReplyDelete
I come back with thousands of photos, all organized by day/date.
Searching for themes is like a quikie trip to Paris.
Plus I get other post ideas whilst looking for some obscure photo I remember vaguely taking..
My father always told me that red is THE Chinese color but the Chinese have nothing on the French in the red department!ReplyDelete
That shot of the woman disappearing through a door - incredibly chic!!!
Makes me want to be born there also..that little Red Riding Hood ring..that store looks adorable..ReplyDelete
Love the touches of red everywhere..splashes I guess..
The notebook..tout..tout est beau.
Fun fun..I admired the Italian and French fashions for les petits while there..the quality..the cuteness..Really lovely..
wonderful, Carol--a very happy Valentine's to you!ReplyDelete
I love your color posts. You take bits and pieces of photos and make them into such fun posts. I loved the cupcakes..oh and those pink shoes too. Le Sigh. :)ReplyDelete
Delightful!! Happy Valentine's, Carol. Your wit and arty eye makes life more delicious for all!ReplyDelete
Connie: ain't that the truth..ReplyDelete
I remember planning on changing my name to Claudette as a kid..
I did not care for Carol at all :(
- Terry G2:40 PM
I've become an avid follower of your blog. What a wonderful way to start my day.ReplyDelete
Thank you for all those lovely and delicious tid-bits.
Stephen and I ended up staying at the Hotel Vernueil when we were in Paris this last fall.
I did love the looks of the hotel you recommended.
Maybe next trip
Et bonne Saint-Valentin Jour a vous! A bientot! (kiss right cheek, kiss left cheek, kiss right cheek)ReplyDelete
I'm dying over the Little Red Riding Hood ring. It's so creepy fun!ReplyDelete
I need to gift that to someone!
Great photos!
Happy belated V Day!

And you know what? The producers should have listened to her. I have this feeling that one of the reasons she left The Hills is that she was fed up with being pressured to film with Hedi and Spencer, and maybe also a little annoyed that she had to keep pretending that there was some on-again/off-again thing with Brody. If the producers had simply gotten rid of Heidi and Spencer -- who were ridiculous and boring anyway -- and refocused the show on Lauren and other young women exploring their careers in Los Angeles, The Hills might have ended on a note that secured its reputation as a pop-culture phenomenon. Instead, it was like a sad little gasp.
I re-watched the first episode of The Hills during the incessant marathon that preceded the series finale, and I was struck by how different the show had become by the final season. The first episode is filled with close-ups of faces and details, silences, and the main story is that Lauren is starting fashion school and trying to get an internship. The women are ambitious and optimistic, and the main relationships are those among the women. The boys are on the periphery. Even into season six, when there was little interesting left, the show's most compelling moments continued to be those between the women.
There's been plenty of discussion about The Hills closing montage. It was effective at acknowledging the constructions of real/unreal that pervaded the show and characterize its environs, but why did it focus on Brody? Initially, I was somewhat baffled that Brody was the subject of the closing shot, but I've come to the conclusion that his silhouette against the painted backdrop actually recalled the initial disruption and symbolized the subsequent fall of the show. In this way, it is probably a fit ending. Jason was bad, but he was *really* Lauren's boyfriend. It's been widely acknowledged that Brody and Spencer hatched a plan to get on the show by dating the leading ladies, and they did. And we all know how that turned out.
In a perfect world, there would have never been a Brody or Spencer on The Hills, and the closing shot of the series might have been one of Lauren confidently striding down the runway at the finale of her own first fashion show. But Lauren left the show, perhaps because she was too real for the contrived drama of the hothouse. So instead we get Brody -- chiseled and robotic -- bidding farewell to Kristin (whose total lack of ambition kept her presence rather vague and pointless). As Kristin's car pulls away, Brody cuts a generic silhouette against the fake hills on a studio lot in the valley of the real hills as, somewhat half-heartedly, footage from the past six seasons flickers through a familiar and almost plain boring montage. When at last the painted background is rolled away and we see the cameras and the cranes and the crew, there is a reminder that at one time this show was interesting.
But LC moved on, and this is just what's left.
