Here you will find lots of INFORMATION about Mucky pups INCLUDING our term dates, and INFORMATION ABOUT lots of the things we have been up to. You can also download our most recent newsletter.
We have all welcomed Steph into the Mucky pups family and she's now one of us! She has been fantastic in getting to know all of the children, families and staff and is now part of the furniture.
Now for sad news, we've had to say goodbye to Issy who has decided to move onto a different career path. We obviously wish her all the best, she'll be missed by all of us.
To replace Issy, we have a lovely girl called Leah! Leah started in the third week of January and is getting to know everyone and everything.
Lots of children will be leaving us at the end of this month ready for school, and it will be sad to see them go, but we'll still get to see lots of them at Kids Club!
We have also said good bye to Claire Fagan who is really sad to leave, but is moving on to bigger things!.
On the bright side, we have a new Deputy Manager, Steph! Find out more about her on our staff page, and make sure you say hello and make her feel welcome.
We pulled up and harvested all our vegetables and fruits this summer over the weeks. We used some of it to make soup, we had apples for snack, the peas are still growing everywhere it seems and the children help themselves. We still have potatoes to dig up, then we'll get planting again for the autumn months!
We have been developing our outdoor area a lot recently, and this has included doing lots of planting. We've been planting potatoes, lettuce, carrots, beans and peppers in the outdoor planter. The children have helped create labels for these and are helping to maintain them by watering them and weeding the area around. We have also planted individual sunflowers for each child to take home.
As we have been so interested in looking at seeds, one of our children suggested to plant a melon seed while we had them out on the interest table, and we are pleased to announce it has a leaf!
We are pleased to say that we received a 'Good' grading on our last OFSTED inspection. The inspection took place on Tuesday 28th November 2018. You can find a link to our most recent inspection here.
On Tuesday 28th November, Mucky Pups had their Ofsed inspection. We feel that the inspection went very well and look forward to sharing the results with you once the report is published.
A great day had by all!
We always like to graduate our leavers with their own graduation pictures. It's both a sad and happy time, to see them go, but to go on to big school and new learning experiences. Good luck to everyone, you will all be missed.
edit: some children have not appeared on here as parents have asked for their photographs not to appear online, but, rest assured, all children who graduate with us will get a special photo!
It's the last week of term and for some of you, the last week of Mucky Pups. This means that throughout the week we will be saying good bye and good luck to some of you. On your child's last day, we will give you their peg picture, name card and anything they might have made or stashed in their tray. Be prepared for lots of rogue glitter and random sticks that they found on the field.
As for their learning journey on capture, we will share with you their file and also email you a PDF version of it so you can keep it safe on your computer.
There is talk of an app being developed for capture, but we aren't sure when this is going to become live, but we will keep you informed.
We at Mucky Pups will also start sharing each individual observation with you as they happen, so you won't get one big load of observations. Thank you all for being patient with us in using Capture, this is our first venture into online learning journeys and it has been a learning curve for us too. We appreciate any and all feedback about how you have found using Capture as Joe is able to speak directly with the team who designed it.
As you should all know by now, all of our observations, photos and tracking of your children's' development is done with Capture Education, an online profile builder. This should allow us to be able to share more with you, the parents and guardians, about what your children are up to while they are with us, and also an opportunity for you to share with us too. Please make the most of the sharing feature. This allows us to see what your children are like in their own environment, and helps us to plan more effectively when they are in Mucky Pups.
Any problems with logging on, come talk to Joe and he'll help.
Yes indeed! We all welcome back Alison, our Diddy Dance teacher on a Thursday. At 10:00 we go into the hall to do some stretches and warm ups before doing some Salsa dancing together. We go into the hall for two half hour slots, so we split into two groups. As usual, this is something that we provide and is no extra cost to you.
We had a visit today from the Vets as a part of our People Who Help Us topic. Along with them, they brought a dog and a bearded dragon. The children had the opportunity to touch and hold the animals, and also to try on surgical gowns and listen through a stethoscope! The ladies from the Vets also gave a little talk about caring for animals and what they do.
Hello everyone! Sorry its been so long with an update - I've been too focused on our online learning journeys with Capture, more on that later.
So, whats been going on? Well, since the last update, we obviously had Christmas and a a big party full of dancing and a visit from a special person (Father Christmas!) who gave us all a little gift. Then we came back in the new year to welcome Izzy, whom we all, by now, know and love I'm sure.
We've also had Little Kickers on a Friday with Scotty. He's been teaching us how to control a ball with our feet and score some goals.
If you want your child to keep going to Little Kickers, Scotty operates from Moorside school on a Saturday morning at 10:00.
This year, as a treat for the children who are leaving us to join Big School, we took all the children to the Butterfly house at Williamsons Park.
The morning looked bleak, the rain came down like a monsoon and lightning flashed overhead. It was looking like it was going to be a washout. The children were not put off by the rain, however. In fact, they were spurred on by it! Going to the coach from Nursery we all got soaked, but then, the sun came out as we arrived and we had a fantastic morning.
We first looked around in the aviary at all the birds. They were free to fly over our heads, and there was even a nest with a tiny egg in it!
Then we went through to the minibeast and reptile house. This really got all the children excited, pressing their faces to the glass to be eye to eye with a giant spider!
From there, we visited the butterfly house, watching all the pretty colours flutter by, and also fish in the little pool which circles the room.
Once we'd finished in there, it was time to see the Meerkats and the other larger animals. The children couldn't believe the size of one of the rabbits there, it was HUGE!
A quick play on the play area before lunch in the Aston Memorial, then back on the coach just as it starts to rain again.
We were really lucky to have Rapunzel drop by and say hello to the children. She sang some songs, and gave lots of hugs. The children were starstruck!
Every Thursday, Alison from Diddy Dance comes to spend some time with us in the hall doing lots of crazy dancing. We do lots of shaking, twirling ribbons and hula hooping along with some music. It really gets the staff worn out, but the children seem to come out with even more energy!
On the 10th March, we had a special visitor come to teach us Spanish! We all sat in the hall, while our new friend, Lisa sang lots of nursery rhymes in English, then Spanish. She brought along lots of props for the songs, too. Gracias Lisa!
All of the children loved helping decorate our Christmas tree this year, and then redecorating it throughout the day, every day.
Goodbye and good luck to our school leavers!
We will all miss you very much, but know that you will all have a great time in your new schools. Below are just some of the Graduation Photos.
We had a great time at Wildlife Oasis, and all the children had a chance to hold and touch some of the animals (although not all of them took up that opportunity). All the children had a great time and were all very well behaved. Pictures to follow!
As some of you may be aware, we recently had an OfSted inspection. A full report is wrriten by the inspector and can be found in the link below as a downloadable PDF.
We have recently put up the Christmas tree in the main room at Pups. All the children helped to decorate it too. In fact, we often have to keep redecorating it as the lower baubles keep falling off! The children really like to play around it on the small world carpet, and has given us lots to talk about. We also have two advent calanders which the children can open. A special phone call to Father Christmas chooses a child every day.
We haven't gone for an artistic photo here, but the light made it blurry.
Making the most of our outdoor area, we have built a mud kitchen. We also have lots of resources for the children to investigate which allow them to ballance, build and use their imagination in a variety of ways. Some children have used crates to build trains and cars, the foam tubes as elephant trunks or fishing rods, and wooden planks as see-saws Lets have a look at some of the other things we've been getting up to outside in the recent weeks.
Some of the children were very lucky at Pups and were able to make their very own pizza with Natalie. They chopped their own peppers and mushroom and spread their own tomato puree and grated their own cheese! They then took their pizza home to cook and and eat.
We are very lucky to have so much space out in our garden to grow our own vegetables and fruit. Down at the bottom of the garden, we have an apple and pear tree which were planted two years ago. This year (2014) we saw our first apples, but unfortunately, no pears yet. There were 6 apples in total, but some were taken by pesky squirrels! Three were left over, so we tasted them at circle time.
Then there was some vegetables we had planted - Turnips, Carrots and Runner Beans. The turnips didn't grow, but the carrots did, and we also had some surprise potatos from last year!
The children were very excited to find with an adult, a big blackberry bush at the bottom of the field. We used this as a good opportunity to talk about berrries that might not be safe to eat, and to always ask a grown-up or just leave them alone. Thankfully, these were safe! We picked a good handfull and had those for snack too!
Here are some pictures of some of our vegetables we managed to grow this year.
This coming Friday 4th July, we are lucky to have one of our parents come to Mucky Pups to talk to us about Ramadan and Eid. We are always interested in learning about different cultures, especially when its something that is really close to many of our children and parents.
We are very lucky to have a lady from Diddy Dance leading a session with the children today. She really got them all moving in a lot of different and fun ways, learning to use their bodies and equipment.
Just take a look at the fun they are having!
We are very excited here at Pups to announce our brand new pre-school OPEN!
We have had lots of building work done to make the room look warm and inviting again. This has included new flooring, new toilets, new paintwork, new furniture, and even some new staff!
We would like to spend this day welcoming new parents, parents who want a nosey, and to those who I'm sure will be very impressed with the improvements we have made.
So, welcome one and all to Mucky Pups!
It is coming to that time of year again where we prepare to say goodbye and good luck to the older children who are off to big school!
As usual, we are going to have a party on the last day of term, with games, food and prizes. We are asking parents if they can to donate some spare change to us so that we can use that money to buy food for the party. We have found that this way works best rather than food donations as we often were very sweet heavy!
Our last day of term is on Friday 19th July. We are closing two days earlier than Dallas Road School as during the summer holidays, Mucky Pups is getting a full revamp. We are having new flooring, taking down a wall to make a bigger room, and a nice lick of paint. You won't believe your eyes! We need to use those final two days to take everything out before the building work can progress. Sorry for any inconvenience.
All of the children have been really interested in all living things over the past few weeks. In our wildlife garden, we are lucky enough to have a wide range of minibeast, birds and rabbits. We will often sit and watch the birds feeding and looking for worms, and because they are so used to us, they often come really close.
At Mucky Pups, we also have a digital microscope, and have been using this to look at all the bugs that we find close up. It really is amazing what we can see.
We have used these opportunities to incorporate using number by counting legs, making observational drawings and disscussing how to keep these creatures safe in our garden.
This is our digital microscope which we connect to the laptop. We have used it before to look at our clothes, hair and skin.
This spider was so tiny that we couldn't see its legs without the microscope.
Almost every child came to look at the spider we found!
An ant and some ant eggs.
We found these spider eggs with a spider protecting them. We noticed recently that we haven't seen the spider for some time, so we took the opportunity to have a close look.
Since the weather has been really nice recently, we have made the most of it and made sure that we have all got outside to spruce up the garden. We also need to keep an eye on the bird feeders and top those up too. Every so often, we like to get the motion sensor wildlife camera out over the day and night, and we usually get some really great photos.
The children have planted some vegetables in the big planter with Natalie, and since then, we have made sure that they keep topped up with water.
While we wait for our vegetables to grow, we are going to have a nice tasty salad for snack, prepared by the children, for the children. It gives us chance to talk with the children about where some of our food comes from and learn about how important it is to eat healthy.
Since the work has almost finished on the new kitchen, we have been able to make cakes!
The new oven alows us to do more with the children now, and, keen to test it out, Natalie has already baked three batches of cakes with the children, they were really good, YUM!
Please note, we are CLOSED on bank holidays.
If your children are going to Dallas Road School, we also provide after school care in the same building as Mucky Pups. We collect from school and are open until 6PM each day.
We also run a holiday club for children aged 4 - 11 years throughout all school holidays from 8am - 6pm, Monday to Friday. This is open to children from any school. We are open all school holidays inclusive of the summer holidays (All 6 weeks) and school inset days (in line with Dallas road school).
If you would like any information, you can either come in and speak to a member of staff, or follow the link to www.dallasroadkidsclub.com.
Well, what a day we had! It was very busy, and the rain stopped before we got there so that was a blessing.
We had three lovely ladies show us around the farm; they showed us lots of interesting things like a really big pig called Hercules, a horse, some goats, and we got to collect some eggs from the chicken coop. We were also really lucky to be able to hold a baby chick and feed the calves. For one of the little sessions, we painted a cardboard cow and then went to see where the cows are milked.
All the children had a great time, and even though some were a little apprehensive about feeding or holding some of the animals, most of the children had a try. So well done everyone!
Bob came to see us at Mucky Pups with two of his owls... Woody and Spotty.This was a great opportunity for the children to meet these beautiful creatures close up and learn a little about them. Of course it also fit in nicely with our 'Night-time' topic!
(Below) One of the children strokes the owl using a feather. The children were very taken with the owls and enjoyed meeting them.
Bob talked to the children about each owl and what they ate etc. The children also had the opportunity to ask Bob some questions but funnily enough decided to go very quiet at that point!
On Thursday 20th October Rachel's Hedgehog Tigerlily came to see us at Pups.
Again, this fit in nicely with our night-time topic and the children enjoyed meeting Tigerlily close up.
The party at the end of term in December involved lots of fun. We played musical statues, bumps, did some dancing, pass the parcel and other fun games in the hall. After the party, we had our party food, but we did it a little differently this time. We uaually set out two tables full of food (seperate vegetarian table) and allow the children to come up one at a time to choose what they would like to eat. This year we thought we'd have a treat, by plating up the food beforehand and setting them out on the tables in our canteen area in the building. The children loved seeing a different part of the building and getting to sit with their frinds for a diverse meal!
All the children got to try some of the radishes we grew!
It was an interesting experience for some of the children as this was the first time they had tried it.
This term we saw the first of our vegetable patch goodies being harvested. We started small this year and only planted a few different vegetables as we wanted to see how we got on.
As the photo shows though, we did really well and managed to produce a small but edible crop of radishes!
Here's one of our children helping to dig up a radish. We enoucrage the children help at every stage of the growing process from planting, to digging, to eating!


The Engineering and Social Informatics research group (ESOTICS) in the Department of Computing and Informatics has recently obtained a research fund from the National Center for Responsible Gaming (NCRG) to support a project titled 'Participatory Design of Interactive Persuasive Gambling Awareness: Enabling Gambler-Centered Innovation' (GamInnovate).
GamInnovate facilitates participatory design (PD) sessions with gamblers, using EROGamb software, with the aim of building templates and interactive multimedia messages for conscious and responsible gambling.
The project builds on the EROGamb project's findings that indicated that gamblers see responsible gambling messages sent by their gambling sites as 'superficial', 'trivializing' and 'oblivious to their personal and social context'. GamInnovate seeks to tackle the issue and develop design principles for interactive persuasive messages which can use gambling behaviour data to allow for a more controlled gambling experience.
The team aim to create an open access repository of multimedia designs which they will create using informed research formulas and design principles. These designs will then be made available for reuse by the responsible gambling industry, software engineers and the research community. This repository will act as a vehicle for cooperation between UK and USA responsible gambling communities, creating a broader impact and outreach.
EROGamb's BU investigation team includes Professor Raian Ali (project lead, Social Informatics), Dr Emily Arden-Close (Health Psychology), Dr Elvira Bolat (Corporate Social Responsibility) and Professor Keith Phalp (Software Engineering). The project will be conducted in close collaboration with NCRG and a range of charities and responsible gambling offices in the UK and Europe.
GamInnovate is part of our Digital Addiction initiative meant to enable a healthier and well-informed usage of technology.


Last week marked a historic US midterm election for climate action and youth voters, breaking turnout records across the country and elevating climate justice champions to elected leadership around the US.
Early voting among youth soared by an astounding 188% above turnout levels for the 2014 midterms.
While we are tremendously disappointed that campaigns funded by special interests caused important climate ballot initiatives in Colorado and Washington to fail, young people across the country proved last week that their voices won't be silenced and that they are a decisive force in US politics, demanding leaders who represent their values.
Trained 35 high-school-aged Action Fellows in Milwaukee and Raleigh to get out the vote for climate action via relational voter turnout and a party at the polls to make voting fun and collaborative.
In Wisconsin, for example, ACE connected with more than 3,000 young voters through direct text messages and peer-to-peer organizing spearheaded by ACE Action Fellows and Youth Action Network members and an additional 150,000 new young climate voters through targeted social media outreach. With 59% voter turnout and by a margin of just 30,000 votes, Wisconsinites tipped the scales to deny Scott Walker, a known climate denier, a third term as Governor and instead elected Tony Evers, a former public school teacher and superintendent who is seeking to expand renewable energy in the state. In particular, Milwaukee and Dane Counties, where many youth and people of color cast deciding ballots, helped swing the election for climate leadership.
We are inspired by first time voters in Nevada, like Clarissa, who voted to commit the state to50% renewable energy by 2030. Voters in Florida, including over 2,500 newly registered climate voters, banned offshore drilling along Florida's expansive coastline. And we are in awe of the more than 100 women leaders who will be heading to Washington to fight for climate and social justice, including Sharice Davids and Deb Haaland who will serve as the first Native American women in Congress, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar who will join as the first Muslim women in Congress, Lauren Underwood who will be the first woman to represent the 14th District of Illinois, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who will be the youngest woman headed to the House.
We now have a House of Representatives that will hold this Administration accountable for its harmful climate regulations, including rollbacks to the Clean Power Plan, rules on methane emissions, and the Paris Climate Agreement.
As we mourn important losses and celebrate significant climate victories, we know we have a big fight ahead. Voting is the first step of civic action. Now we turn toward holding our elected leaders accountable to their climate promises. Join us to support young people across the country to mobilize their peers to fight for accountability and create a sustainable and equitable future for all.
Leah joined ACE in 2009 and is currently serving as Deputy Director. She brings with her more than 12 years of experience in the nonprofit sector as a relationship-builder, communicator and strategic problem solver. She manages ACE's program, campaign, communications, media, and marketing strategy.

Alexander Gray (1856-1940) – His Obituary
Posted on October 30, 2015 by fillinginthefamilytree.com
Here is a transcription of the obituary for Alexander Gray, date and newspaper unknown. (His mother's name was Judah Arena, not Irene.)
Our community was saddened to hear of the passing of Alex Gray at his home in Craig, Tuesday, December 31, 1940 at 4pm.
He had a long lingering illness but bore his suffering with patience and fortitude. All that loving hands and hearts and medical skill could do was of no avail.
Alexander Gray was born June 24, 1856, near Gower in Buchanan County, Mo. and attained the age of 84 years, 6 months, and 7 days.
His parents, Franklin and Irene Gray, were pioneers in Buchanan County. Mr. Gray was the fourth child in a family of four boys and one girl. When he was eight years old his parents died, and he and his brother, Simian, were taken into the home of a maternal uncle, Dr. Simian Parrish, then a pioneer physician of Holt County living at his farm home three miles north of Craig.
These little boys were loved and nurtured by their foster parents and given all the advantages they could give their own children.
Mr. Gray grew to manhood in this home, and engaged in farming.
He was married to Rose A. Browning July 18, 1877. His companion passed away Nov. 30, 1938. They established their home on a farm five miles north of Craig and continued to reside in this community until 1912, when they retired from the farm and moved to Craig.
To this union were born four children. Edgar of Craig, Mrs. Allen Bowersox of Reserve, Kans., Miss Erma of the home, and a daughter, Orpha, who died in infancy.
Other survivors are nine grandchildren, fifteen great grandchildren, and one great great grandchild, and a number of nieces and nephews.
Mr. Gray and his wife were charter members of Sharp's Grove Baptist Church. He was ever loyal and true to his faith and to his church, having held office in the capacity of deacon for more than 35 years. By thrift and industry he had accumulated considerable property in houses and lands. He was also a stockholder in the Bank of Craig.
He was a man of high moral character, sterling qualities and steadfast principles. Ever mindful of the right.
He was devoted to his home and his family, loved and respected by his friends and neighbors. With his passing the family loses a devoted father and grandfather and the community an upright citizen.
Funeral services were conducted in the M. E. Church Friday afternoon at 2:00 o'clock by a former pastor of the Sharp's Grove Church, Rev. G. A. Puckett of Kingston, Mo., who read an impressive and beautiful discourse of which the theme was "The Christian's Life, the Faith, and the Final Reward – Eternal Life." The speaker paid a beautiful tribute to the exemplary daily life of the deceased as he trod the milestones along life's highway with his fellowmen.
A choir composed of Rev. and Mrs. Earl A. Ogle, Mrs. Fred Walkup and Mr. Horn sang the hymns, "Whispering Hope," "Sunrise Tomorrow," and "Shall We Gather at the River," with Miss Lena Lawrence at the piano. The floral offerings, gifts of friends and relatives, were profuse and beautiful.
The body-bearers were grandsons of the deceased: Dean, Carl, Don, Ralph and Harold Gray and W. H. Cooper.
The great granddaughters bore the flowers: Wilma and Dorothy Griffin, Beatrice Cooper and Clarissa Gray.
The remains were laid tenderly to rest in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery , there to await the Master's call.
The pains of death have ceased,
Labor and sorrow cease.
And life's long warfare closed at last.
His soul is found in peace.
Soldier of Christ well done.
Praise be the new employ,
And while eternal ages run,
Rest in the Savior's joy.
Relatives and friends from a distance were:
Mr. Lon Gray and wife, Mr. Norman Gray and wife, Mr. Ben Moore and wife, Mr. Wyman Gray and wife, Mr. Roy Gray, Bryan Weakley and wife all of Gower.
Charles Williams and wife, Carl Gray and wife, Dean Gray and family, W. H. Cooper and family, Miss Minnie Gray, Mrs. Earl Wing, Jewell Gibson and wife, all of St. Joseph.
Fred Krull and wife, Easton, and O. C. Gray of Omaha, Nebr.
A. E. Bowersox and wife, Misses Anna and Martha Stewart and Mrs. S. B. Stewart of Reserve, Kans.; Mrs. Dan Chaney of Falls City, Neb., George Jones and wife of Horton, Kans., H. H. Browning, S. F. Williams and wife, and Glenn Davis and wife all of Fairfax.
J. L. Browning and wife, M. Browning, Ed Browning, and Mrs. Asa Hollenbeck all of Mound City.
We wish to thank our many friends, relatives and neighbors for the sympathy and helpfulness shown in the death of our father, also for the flowers; to the choir for the rendition of the beautiful music and for the use of cars.
F. E. Gray and family, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Bowersox, and Miss Erma Gray

Alexander Gray (1856-1940) & Rose Althea Browning (1854-1938)
Alex & Rose are Todd's great great grandparents, the parents of his great grandfather Franklin Edgar Gray.
Alexander Gray was born on June 24, 1856 in Buchanan County, Missouri. His parents are Franklin William Gray & Judah Arena Parrish. I wrote about them here. He was the 4th of their 6 children.
Rose Althea Browning was born on August 25, 1854 in Holt County, Missouri. Her parents are Elias William Browning and Anna Elizabeth Galloway. I wrote about them here. She was the 2nd oldest of their 15 children.
On the 1860 US Census, Alex was 4 and lived with parents Franklin, age 38 and Judah, age 36, farmers in Buchanan County, Missouri. Other siblings in the home were William age 12, Benjamin, age 10, and Simeon age 8. Others in the house were Martha Wiese, age 17, and William Cooley, age 45, a traveling merchant from York State.
Rose was 5 and lived with parents Elias, age 28 and Elizabeth, age 25, farmers in Holt County, Missouri. Other siblings in the house were John Francis, 7, Louisa Jane 4, William Allison 3 and Isabella, age 3 months.
Both of Alex's parents died in 1864. On the 1870 US Census, Alex was 13 and lived with his uncle Simeon Parrish and family. His brother Simeon, age 17, also lived with them. His sister Sarah, age 10, lived with her uncle Robert Wadsworth Holmes. I haven't found brothers William Linsey Gray and Benjamin Franklin Gray in 1870 but they were 22 and 20 by then.
On the 1870 US Census, Rose was 16, her father William was 39, and her mother Elizabeth was 36. John Francis was 17, Louisa Jane was 14, William Allison was 12, Isabella was 10, Florence Letta was 8 and Emma was 1. They were in Holt County and Elias' occupation was "labour." It had been a rough year for the family. Two sons, James M., born in 1864, and Robert Lee, born in 1866, died within 5 days of each other in May of 1870, and daughter Kitty (Robert's twin, born in 1866) died that year too, sometime prior to August when the family was enumerated on the census.
Rose married Alex on July 18, 1877 in Sharps Grove, Holt County, Missouri. She did this against her father's wishes, because he didn't care for Alexander Gray
Their son Franklin Edgar was born in 1878.
On the 1880 US Census, Alex, age 24, and Rose, age 26, were farming in Atchison County, Missouri, right next to Alex's brother Simeon. Son Franklin Edgar was 2.
Daughter Lula was born in 1881, and daughter Bernice Erma was born in 1889.
On the 1900 US Census, Alex was 43 and Rose was 45. They had been married for 23 years, and Rose had given birth to 4 children, 3 living. Daughter Lula was 19, and daughter Erma was 10. Son Edgar, age 21 and a newlywed, was in the next house over, with wife Maude. They were all farming in Holt County, Missouri.
Daughter Orpha Evelyn was born and died in 1894.
(Photo: A portrait of the Gray family in front of the home Alex had just built in Craig, Missouri in 1894. Left to right: Rowdy the horse, Franklin Edgar Gray, Erma, Alex, Lula, Rose holding Orpha who died shortly after the photo was taken.)
On the 1910 US Census, Alex was 54 and Rose was 55. Daughters Lula, age 28, and Erma, age 21, lived at home. Alex was farming and Erma was a teacher at a rural school.
On the 1920 US Census, Alex was 63 and Rose was 64. Daughters Lula, age 38, and Erma, age 30, lived at home. Lula was a saleslady at a drug store and Erma was a telephone operator.
(Photo: Alex & Rose celebrating an anniversary.)
On the 1930 US Census, Alex was 73 and Rose was 75. Daughters Lula, age 48, and Erma, age 40, lived at home. None were employed.
Rose died November 30, 1938 in Craig, Missouri. Her Find A Grave memorial is here.
The family was enumerated on the 1940 US Census on April 20, 1940. Alex was 83 and daughter Erma was 51. Neither was empoloyed. Alex died on December 31, 1940 in Craig, Missouri. His Find A Grave memorial is here.
The children of Alexander Gray & Rose Althea Browning:
Franklin Edgar Gray – Franklin is Todd's great grandfather. You can read more about him here.
Lula Gray – Lula was born on May 4, 1881 in Craig, Missouri. She married Allen Elisha Bowersox sometime after 1930. She died February 1, 1973 in Fairfax, Missouri. Her Find A Grave memorial is here.
Bernice Erma Gray – Bernice was born on October 25, 1899 (I believe the Social Security Index is incorrect in saying she was born in 1888). She died on January 21, 1981 in Craig, Missouri.

Whether you like it or not, automation has come to the family farm — just as it has come to almost every other money-making activity of modern life. Robotic machinery has already been developed to milk cows, pick cucumbers and sort and grade fruit. It's only a matter of time before robots find their way onto corn and soybean farms to perform various functions as well.
The idea of robot farming isn't as far-fetched as it seems, adds Grift, who is working to develop low-cost robots that can successfully navigate corn and soybean fields without the presence of humans. After all, many Midwestern farmers are already equipped with automated irrigation, grain-drying and precision-farming systems, he points out.
Grift also points to Clay Mitchell, who farms with his father, Wade, and great-uncle, Philip, near Waterloo, IA, as among the first in the nation to begin systematically making the transition from mechanical to automated farming systems. "The Mitchells have been able to push automation to its practical limits, both with the technology currently available, and with some they've come up with themselves," he says.
Automation on the Mitchell farm includes grain unloading and loading systems; continuous-flow grain drying and cooling systems; global positioning systems (GPS) with real-time kinematic guidance (RTK) technology on tractors, sprayers and combines; and a high-speed, wireless (radio) farm computer network. The wireless computer network, with DSL Internet access, allows the Mitchells to go online and check weather conditions, buy and sell grain, send and receive e-mails or monitor and control grain bin equipment from any remote location on the farm — even while operating a combine or tractor.
Starting in 2000, their operation became one of the first in the Midwest to use auto-steering technology, says Mitchell, who adds that he's seen significant benefits. "Auto-steer is one technology that reduces your own personal labor by almost half," he says.
Auto-steering technology is the reason the Mitchells can plant, fertilize and harvest corn and soybeans separately in 30-ft. swaths without overlap, says Mitchell. The farm's strip-intercropping system helps prevent erosion on rolling ground by eliminating large field areas covered only with soybean crop residue, which is less capable of protecting erosion-prone soils than fields covered with crop residue from corn. The strip-intercropping system also increases corn yields by allowing more access to light, points out Mitchell, with only a minimal decrease in soybean yields due to shading.
Painstaking, row-by-row random yield checks on the Mitchell farm confirm that auto-steer is having a positive effect on yields by allowing strip-tilling, strip-intercropping and controlled traffic systems to operate with centimeter-level accuracy, says Bob Recker, division engineer at John Deere Product Engineering Center, Waterloo, IA.
To check yields, Recker harvests one row at a time, going all the way across fields, which are sometimes a ½-mile long. Then he tests the grain for moisture and weighs it on a weigh wagon.
Results from Recker's research on the Mitchell farm show that corn rows may vary as much as 100 bu./acre in yields between the 12 different rows, he says. In cases with extreme yield variation between rows, Recker says factors beyond compaction and strip-intercropping may be causing yields to vary.
For example, the Mitchells use RTK GPS, coupled with a 30-section KEE controller to precisely turn on and off spray nozzles in milliseconds. There are 49 nozzles on their self-propelled sprayer, but 30 sections, explains Wade Mitchell, Clay's father, who often operates the sprayer.
However, the advantages from automation also come with a price. Clay says a similar auto-steering system costs about $30,000, a 30-section sprayer controller costs about $8,500 and nozzle bodies cost about $120 each. Although the investment costs are high, adds Clay, the dividends are proving to be well worth the cost.
Not all precision-farming automation equipment will turn out to be a good investment, says Tony Grift, University of Illinois agricultural and biological engineer. Certain types of automation will be worth the money, while others won't, he cautions.
Their spraying system, which reduces spray overlap and avoids applications on waterways.
Their strip-intercropping system, which relies on guidance systems that provide enough accuracy to operate each crop exactly in-between the other one.
Their controlled-traffic system, so that all their equipment only runs on 17% of their acreage, almost like tram lines in Europe.
Grift also predicts that the benefits from automation will progress in row-crop fields so that robots will eventually perform many operations that farmers routinely do now, which will further help save farmers time, money and headaches.

Do land grabs promote food security?
September 4, 2013 Posted by Guest Blogger
No, they don't. But can large-scale land acquisitions?
Stephanie Burgos, Senior Policy Advisor for Trade
"…we cannot rely on public resources alone, and as such, must leverage responsible investment by the private sector. When property rights systems are strong, large investments can be done in ways that benefit smallholder farmers." ~Gregory Myers, Chief of the USAID's land tenure and property rights Division
These days being accused of land grabbing is like being accused of corruption – never a good thing. We've built a lot global awareness on the issue over the last few years, thanks to the hard work of organizations around the world, large and small, especially those on the front lines whose lives and livelihoods have been disrupted (or worse) as a result.
But as USAID and others have increasingly been promoting large-scale private sector investment in agriculture, the question arises: can private investors who acquire large tracts of land, but invest responsibly, help improve food security?
Oxfam set out to find a good example of large-scale land acquisition and so we went to Paraguay, one of the poorest countries in South America whose economy relies on agriculture. Paraguay is in the grip of a soy boom, becoming the world's fourth largest exporter. Soybean monoculture now covers 80 percent of the country's cropland – nearly double that of a decade ago, with projections for further expansion. This has further exacerbated the concentration of land in Paraguay, where land distribution is more unequal than anywhere in the region.

To see if small-scale farmers could reap some benefit from large-scale investment in soy expansion, Oxfam commissioned research in Paraguay on land and soy. We focused on one company, Desarrollo Agrícola del Paraguay (DAP), which was reported to be making efforts to benefit small-scale farmers. The research, entitled The Soy Mirage, found that DAP had taken a different approach than most soy producers, including initiatives to avoid harm to communities and help small-scale farmers. But DAP's good efforts could not compensate for the problems caused by the soy business model which tends to:
deepen the concentration of wealth and land,
contaminate the surroundings,
harm the health of the local population,
compete for limited resources, and
put at risk the traditional livelihoods of small-scale farmers and indigenous communities.
Soy production is highly dependent on expensive external inputs like pesticides and capital for mechanization, and thus is not a viable option for small-scale farmers in Paraguay. They don't have access to credit or the minimum land area to achieve the scale needed for mechanized production. DAP invested to give small-scale farmers a leg up to get started, but farmers assumed all the risk and lacked capital, so they found themselves mired in debt after one bad harvest.
Even DAP itself has now concluded that organic production would be the best alternative for family farmers, because it doesn't rely on external inputs. Yet there is no evidence that Paraguay's dominant production model will turn organic any time soon. In fact, 95 percent of soy cultivated in Paraguay is genetically-modified "Roundup Ready," making it challenging to produce organically.
Oxfam's research revealed reports of serious health problems resulting from the intensive use of agrochemicals required by Roundup Ready soy (including some banned in Europe), estimated at 30 million liters per soy crop cycle. These health problems range from respiratory conditions, allergies, and cancer, to the death of small livestock and worsening pest infestations. The Paraguayan government has weakened legislation regulating agrochemical use due to pressure from the soy industry. Civil servants have lamented their inability to address the health and environmental problems that result.
Small-scale farmers in Paraguay face huge challenges and injustices linked to our broken global food system. Two models of production coexist uncomfortably in Paraguayan agriculture: the small-scale family farm that mostly produces food, and large-scale monoculture for export to meet international demand for meat and biofuels. Public policy is biased toward the latter, helping to spur investors to buy up large tracts of land to expand soy monoculture, displacing cattle ranches and small-scale farmers.
The cold truth is that soy expansion has been a curse rather than a blessing for small farmers in Paraguay. As Mr. Myers of USAID says, "…more investment will be needed to ensure that all people achieve food security." Certainly, both public and private sector investment must be part of the solution. But there is no evidence that large-scale land investments, even if done "responsibly," can benefit small farmers and food security. At least not in Paraguay.

2064: Read Only Memories merges old-school adventure gaming with modern storytelling to explore some of the social challenges we will face in the near future. Explore the colorful future metropolis of Neo-San Francisco, meeting a huge cast of fascinating characters and solving a far-reaching mystery. Think carefully about your choices, because you never know how they will affect this dynamic, branching narrative further down the line.
Genetic alteration of humans is now commonplace, with many choosing to radically alter their bodies to express their individuality. Virtual intelligences called ROMs (Relationship and Organizational Managers), created as simple digital assistants, are exerting greater control over people's lives. Some are terrified by this rapid change, and they are willing to go to extreme lengths to prevent it.
A lost ROM named Turing breaks into the apartment of a struggling journalist to ask for help. They claim to be the first sapient machine—not a simulation of life but a genuinely self-aware artificial being—and the technical genius who created them has gone missing. Can you unravel the shocking conspiracy that threatens to rock an entire society? Or will the darkness that lies behind the bright neon lights of Neo-SF consume you?
The world of 2064 can be hard to navigate. The Sights of Neo-SF is the official art book by Read Only Memories director and lead artist John "JJSignal" James. Highly stylized and specific in its visuals, ROM's progression from early sketches to final form is fully outlined in this 50-page PDF. You will see early concepts fully realized, previous versions of your favorite characters and even some characters that didn't make the final cut. JJ lists Bubblegum Crisis, Akira, Megazone 23, and the Pluto manga as his biggest style inspirations. Come see where the ideas behind the game began and watch them evolve into the vibrant city of Neo-SF we know and love.
Composed by 2 Mello, the Sounds Of Neo-SF is the FM-synthy, funky, and positively-charged soundtrack to MidBoss' cyberpunk adventure game Read Only Memories. Not content with a soundtrack that was merely fitting for its game, 2 Mello crafted these sounds to embody the dual nature of Neo-San Francisco, all its charm and its hidden dangers. But who said that our cyberpunk future has to be dark and dreary? You'll be humming these melodies to 2064 and beyond.
2064 is my all time favorite!!
I bought Read Only Memories on Steam a few months ago. Absolutely loved it. I have not done many games of this style, click to point or interactive novel or whatever its called. But this game kept pulling me back night after night to get more of the story. Great characters, great setting. The art is awesome and I enjoyed the sounds as well. If you're on the fence I say go for it!
Just letting you know that there's an issue where the new Itch client downloads the Sights and Sounds file instead of the game file if you bought it with the game. Should be solved by removing the OS icons from the file.
Dude. The trailer video is SOLID man! Lmfao...it takes me back to he nineties/early 2000's. Anyway, the demo was enjoyable enough to convince me to buy this. Characters are fantastic. I'm loving how the game lets you choose your pronoun. Can't wait to discover the rest of the content. Great game!!
ROM ist eine Retrofuturistic auf die Point und Klick Adventure-Genre, dass Funktionen eine reicheNarrative und Kamagra http://www.kamagrakaufensie.com/ einzigartige Gameplay-Herausforderungen, die versteckt in den schöneninteraktiven Pixel-Kulissen ältere nehmen.
Really happy I backed this project, it's turned out to be a truly amazing game that creates a genuinely interesting living world you wont want to leave. I'm hoping for an Oculus style version in the future that I can actually climb inside of and see out my days in Neo-SF. Great game!


Swift codes, or BIC codes as they are sometimes called, are specifically used to make international wire transfer payments. Compared to routing numbers which allow you to make wire transfers domestically, a Swift code is used for making or receiving an international wire transfer. In order to make or receive an international wire transfer to ALLIED IRISH BANK PLC., you'll need the appropriate Swift code..
Notice: These Swift/BIC codes for ALLIED IRISH BANK PLC. are only used for international wire transfer payments.

Genomic Classification and Outcome in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
By Matthew Stenger
Posted: 6/21/2016 10:02:20 AM
Last Updated: 6/21/2016 10:02:20 AM
At least two driver mutations were found in 86% of patients with AML.
The prognostic effect of NPM1 mutation varied according to the presence or absence of NRAS, IDH, PTPN11, FLT3, and chromatin-spliceosome mutations.
As reported in The New England Journal of Medicine, Papaemmanuil et al have identified 11 genomic subgroups in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) associated with distinct diagnostic features and clinical outcomes.
AML Subgroups
The study included analysis of driver mutations in 111 cancer genes and cytogenetic and clinical data from 1,540 patients in three clinical trials of intensive therapy. A total of 5,234 driver mutations were identified across 76 genes/genomic regions, with at least 2 drivers identified in 86% of patients.
Concurrent mutation patterns divided the cohort into 11 distinct classes. In addition to currently defined AML subgroups, three notable heterogeneous genomic classes were identified, consisting of AML with mutations in genes encoding chromatin, RNA splicing regulators, or both (18% of patients); AML with TP53 mutations, chromosomal aneuploidies, or both (13%); and (provisionally) AML with IDH2 R172 mutations (1%).
Patients with chromatin-spliceosome and TP53-aneuploidy AML had poor outcome, with the various class-defining mutations being associated with outcome both alone and in combination. Other concurrent driver mutations in addition to class-defining alterations also had an effect on survival.
Divergent Effects of Concurrent Mutations
Prognostic effects of individual mutations were found to be significantly altered by the presence or absence of other driver mutations. Such interactions were especially notable for NPM1-mutated AML, with outcomes among patients with NPM1 mutation varying according to the presence or absence of NRAS, IDH, PTPN11, FLT3, and chromatin-spliceosome mutations. An adverse prognostic effect of FLT3-ITD was most evident in patients with concomitant NPM1 and DNMT3A mutations. The concomitant presence of NPM1, DNMT3A, and NRAS G12/13mutations was associated with a better prognosis.
The investigators concluded: "The driver landscape in AML reveals distinct molecular subgroups that reflect discrete paths in the evolution of AML, informing disease classification and prognostic stratification…. Prospective clinical studies are needed for further validation of this schema."
The study was funded by the Wellcome Trust and others.
Elli Papaemmanuil, PhD; Moritz Gerstung, PhD; and Peter J. Campbell, MB, ChB, PhD, of the Cancer Genome Project, Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, and Hartmut Döhner, MD, of Ulm University contributed equally to The New England Journal of Medicine article.

« Toy Drive for Kohler Workers | Main | Holiday Shopping Guide »
Kohler Workers Approve New Contract
After 32 days on the picket line, with a ratification vote of 91%, UAW Local 833 workers voted Wednesday night to adopt a new four-year contract with the Kohler company. Workers and management were able to reach an improved upon contract that brings tier workers' wages considerably closer together, offers workers better benefits and keeps health care costs more affordable.
Local 833 President Tim Tayloe stated: "We worked very hard to reach an agreement that addresses all of the key areas crucial to the future of our members. The agreement significantly brings one tier associate pay closer to the other, while also providing substantial wage increases in each year of the contract. All benefits have been enhanced and the modifications to the health care plans have reduced the potential for increased out-of-pocket costs to our membership."
Wisconsin solidarity works.
All across the state, the labor movement pulled together to support Kohler workers by donating toys, food, household needs, baby supplies, firewood for burn barrels and strike relief funds. Workers from unions and communities across the state joined the picket line, rallied spirits and let the brothers and sisters of UAW Local 833 know that we have their back. Wisconsin workers know that an injury to one is an injury to us all.
Kohler workers took a brave and necessary stand to protect good jobs in Wisconsin.
Picket Line and Toy Drive Update: Toy donations are still very much appreciated and can be dropped off by December 17 at the Sheboygan Labor Council or Emil Mazey Hall. All picketing has been stopped with strikers returning to work Thursday morning.
When workers stand together, workers win. Kohler workers' victory is a step forward in our march towards closing income inequality in our country and strengthening our middle class so that everyone who works hard can have a shot at the American Dream. Thank you to all who came together quickly and generously to support workers on the line. The tremendous support was essential to these brave and courageous union workers.


It was a fantastic day and the hospatility of Lorenzo was perfect! We highly recommend this sailing trip! Nice boat, good food, great skipper!
We can not say enough good things about this day with Lorenzo. Everything was perfetto! We highly recommend it.
If you do nothing else, DO THIS!
Beautiful boat, great captain and incredible five day trip to Le Cinque Terre (and more)!

Phnom Penh Post - PM recalls win-win strategy as Cambodia marks anniversary of Paris Peace Agreement
PM recalls win-win strategy as Cambodia marks anniversary of Paris Peace Agreement
Ry Sochan | Publication date 23 October 2021 | 13:32 ICT
A general view of the Cambodian Peace Conference where the Paris Peace Accords were signed, on October 23, 1991. ERIN FEFERBERG/AFP
Sat, 23 October 2021
Ry Sochan
As Cambodia commemorates the 30th anniversary of the Paris Peace Agreement on October 23, Prime Minister Hun Sen recalled his win-win strategy that eventually brought about full peace in 1998 after decades of war and factional conflict.
The prime minister noted that on October 23, 1991, four parties signed a peace accord in the French capital Paris in the presence of eyewitnesses from 18 countries with the participation of the UN to end civil war in Cambodia.
The four parties, he said, consisted of himself representing the Cambodian government; FUNCINPEC movement represented by the late King Father Norodom Sihanouk and Prince Norodom Ranariddh; Khmer People's National Liberation Front (KPNLF) represented by the late Son San; and Democratic Kampuchea represented by its general secretary Khieu Samphan, the Khmer Rouge's Brother Number Four.
Before reaching the Paris Peace Agreement on October 23, Hun Sen said he met with the late King Father on December 2, 1987, for a negotiation at Fere-en-Tardenois in northern France where they eventually signed a joint communique dubbed the Sihanouk-Hun Sen Fere-en-Tardenois Negotiation December 2-4, 1987.
The prime minister said it was followed by another Sihanouk-Hun Sen negotiation on January 20-21, 1988, at Saint-Germain-en-Laye and other places in France.
Despite the Paris Peace Agreement on October 23, 1991, Hun Sen said civil war in Cambodia had dragged on between government forces and the Democratic Kampuchea side led by Pol Pot.
"Under Hun Sen's win-win strategy, the civil war came to an end in 1998 when Cambodia achieved full peace and prosperity until today," Hun Sen said.

Or fold down the rear seat. Extended front and rear tracks, sportier design, and slim lights are just some of the new things you will spot on 2019 BMW X5 Diesel. They have the same equipment, but, the M Sport has sportier bumpers and interior trim, and bigger wheels. SE, XLine and M Sport trim packages are available. This is where the majority of visible differences are seen. Custom-fit mats. The former are designed to fit many different cabins, so chances are they will not cover every corner of your carpet or require trimming; still, they are a quick and affordable way to prevent serious damage. Although most of the areas in the interior do not take much beating, the carpet does. Don't forget to also take a look at our inventory of Certified Pre-Owned BMW vehicles.
Our inventory has plenty of models to choose from such as pre-owned BMW 3 Series sedans and pre-owned BMW X5 SUVs. Orlando area drivers can check out the BMW 4 Series models or the new BMW X3!

There are many different models out there. Check Engine Light On here are the codes. I always like to check the tire pressure. What we are looking at is the facelifted BMW X5 M. If you know your BMW M-cars, you will notice that this looks a lot like the current X5 M-Competition. I like the six-speed-automatic transmission. Add armor to stay protected wherever you go. Add even more interior appeal.
Other than that, what we are looking at is essentially the X5 M-Competition exterior treatment, comprising of the more aggressive front fascia. At the back we see the M-Competition bumper with a well-pronounced diffuser, accommodating quad exhaust tips. However, note that they are only calling it X5 M. Does this mean the next X5 M-Competition will sport an even more aggressive styling, or are they simply using the M-Competition body kit to keep the exterior changes a secret? The BMW X5 Sport Activity Vehicle bridges the gap between utility and luxury with impeccable style and BMW's legendary performance. The test vehicle also sat on 21-inch wheels wrapped in 275/40 run-flat performance tires, which undoubtedly contributed to its entertaining driving dynamics on the testing loop.

Similar to the previous album, two songs add the perfect diamond to this gold ring accomplishment in the form of "Sleepwalking Away" and "It's Still Happening" featuring Hamilton Leifhauser of the Walkmen and Nick Young of A.I. respectively. The former bounces through with superb noisy beats and guitar while the latter conjures a dust storm of blips and high tone melodies. Tweaker's post-industrial sound is based far more on melodic texture and challenging song structure and that's why it works so well. Any fan of downtempo electronica, industrial music or electronic rock should go purchase this album.

What is a "Nofollow" Link? Are They Still Important?
By Tom DiScipio
Tom DiScipio also recommends this free guide, The Inbound Marketer's Guide to Search Engine Optimization.
What Is a Nofollow Link?
A nofollow link is simply a link which has been given a tag by a website creator that tells search engines not to follow or index it. Meaning, no SEO value will be attributed to that link just because it was included on a particular website page.
Your success on the web is mostly based on SEO, something which web developers will quickly tell you were influenced by "nofollow" rules that were (and still are) placed on different web pages and sites.
However, since the dawn of the internet, the rules of the "nofollow" link attribute have changed. Is a "nofollow" link still of any value to web pages? Let's first talk about what this "nofollow" thing is all about.
What is "Nofollow"?
The "nofollow" tag is an attribute of the  tag. This tag will tell search engines like Google not to either "follow" or index the particular link in which you apply the "nofollow" rule to.
So let's start off by looking at what a typical link's HTML code looks like:
Your Product
A link like this will do exactly as you would expect: a new window will open to the page that you've defined, "Your Product".
Now let's say you don't want Google or Yahoo! to pick up on a particular page and display it on the Internet. Here's how the link would then appear:
"Your Product
When you tag a page like this, you're telling Google, "DO NOT FOLLOW THIS LINK!"
Why this WAS Important to your Page Rank
The "nofollow" rule used to be incredibly important to your page rank. Some SEO masters will still tell you that it plays an important role (we tend to disagree on how "important" it is), and here's why:
Let's back it up to before the summer of 2009. At this time, PageRank was king. The thing that really controlled PageRank was the flow of your link juice. The "nofollow" attribute played a rather important role in your link juice. Let's say, for example, that you have 4 pages on your site. Let's say that each of them DID NOT have a "nofollow" attribute. Given that your page is 100% of a website, those 4 pages would then each consist of 25% of the site.
Now let's say you take one of those pages and put a "nofollow" attribute on it. Google no longer looks at that page, and instead focuses on the other 3 pages. Thanks to that "noattribute" rule on that one page, those 3 pages are now worth 33% rather than only 25%, so they become more valuable.
But after 2009, everything changed. While Google said that yes, all pages with "nofollow" links would still not pass link juice, the percentage of the link's PageRank would be thrown out and not redistributed to pages without a "nofollow" link. So as in the example above, those 3 pages are now only worth 25% each, and the "nofollow" link with the remaining 25% would then be discarded and lost forever.

Is there any Value in Nofollow Links?
As I said, there are arguments on both sides of the coin: some SEO masters will tell you that "nofollow" links still matter a lot. Others will tell you to remove them all entirely as every page helps in the page rankings. And then there are others still who are completely on the fence. As Tom Critchlow, VP of Operations for Distilled (SEO Company) said, "As SEOs I think that we shouldn't be so obsessed with only getting 'followed' links."
My take it that the value of a "nofollow" link really depends on your site. For example, if you have a site with a lot of traffic and a lot of links, any links that are "nofollow" links can still drive in a lot of traffic.
Wikipedia is one of those sites that we can use as the best example of this. The traffic that you get from your "nofollow" links are still just as valuable as other links, as "nofollow" pages can still drive in a lot of leads, increase your conversions, and they can even get the attention of other sites so that they'll link to you WITHOUT that "nofollow" link attribute.
Nofollow links can have a use in preventing Google or Bing from following a test or "work in progress" page of your site.
Social media and content are more important than the "nofollow" attributes that you may set up on some links.
Nofollow links are always worth testing out once you get a bit more traffic to your site.

'Heroes' Is Up for an Award from Military Writers Society of America
Sept. 17: "Heroes to the End" is a finalist for an award at the Military Writers Society of America convention banquet on Nov. 10 in Charleston, S.C. I am awaiting a posting on the group's website in the next few days to inform me whether I won a gold, silver or bronze medal in the memoir/biography category.
The award will be helpful in promoting the memoir of my 1971-72 Vietnam tour. I have sold about 600 copies of the self-published book and have three Connecticut screenplay writers working on a proposal for a Netflix series based on it. The book revolves around some 80 articles I wrote for Stars and Stripes, many of them during the North Vietnamese Army's Easter Offensive, when I spent a lot of time in Pleiku and Kontum in the Central Highlands. I have donated $12,000 in appearance fees and book sales proceeds to a nonprofit that runs homeless shelters for veterans — United Veterans Beacon House.


David Longstreth has surprise released his self-titled Dirty Projectors almost a week ahead of the planned due date.
Longstreth livestreamed the follow up to 2012's Swing Lo Magellan on Facebook before dropping the whole thing on streaming services. It's not just streaming either - physical editions are in record stores and fans with pre-orders got their copies early.
The full release follows the release of "Cool Your Heart", "Up In Hudson", "Keep Your Name", and "Little Bubble" in previewing Dirty Projectors' self-titled LP, which we've been very excited about.
Dirty Projectors is out now via Domino. Pre-order now.
