Drugs Suspected in Clifton Heights Crash That Killed Teen, Injured One
Posted Scott B. Cooper on Mar 03, 2014 in News
Watch for Drugged Drivers
Seven Steps to Recovery
A Lansdowne man has been charged with vehicular homicide following a two-car accident in Clifton Heights that left one teenager dead and another seriously injured earlier this year. The prosecution alleges that the driver was high on drugs at the time of the accident. Details of the crash and the ensuing charges are as follows:
Jonathan Vanderhost, 45 years old, was arrested Feb. 24 and charged with homicide by vehicle in connection with a fatal crash that occurred Jan. 12. The Clifton Heights crash killed 18-year-old Dante DeSimone and seriously injured 18-year-old Tim Robison. A third young man was uninjured.
The crash occurred shortly before 9:30 p.m. Vanderhost was behind the wheel of a 1996 Ford Taurus, and the three teens were on foot. Vanderhost was attempting to enter a McDonalds along West Baltimore Pike. He waited for the three pedestrians to cross the parking lot entrance before turning, but in doing so he turned directly in front of an oncoming pickup truck.
The impact of the crash forced the driver of the Ford F-250 onto the sidewalk. The truck crashed into the pedestrians, fatally striking DeSimone. Robison suffered serious injuries, including a lung injury and broken bones in his leg, foot and shoulders. After weeks in the hospital, Robison still requires a wheelchair and is seeking compensation with the help of Pennsylvania injury attorney Scott Cooper.
According to the Delaware County District Attorney's Office, Vanderhost was unfit to drive due to large amounts of drugs in his system. A toxicology report shows that Vanderhost was high on marijuana and was on anti-anxiety prescription medication Clonazepam. In addition to the vehicular homicide charges, he is being charged with aggravated assault while driving under the influence and reckless endangerment. He faces a minimum of three years in jail.

A real cat lovers game. See how far you can shoot the kitten.
Chance has more to do with your distance than skill and timing.
Good chance you'll get a bounce from this game.
This has to be one of the most popular flash games around.
I guess only a few people can resist a kitten and cannon combination.
Got a toddler to keep busy?
Have fun. WiseAcre's flash game collection is a perfect waste of time.


Three anonymous songs about Lenin provide the basis for this documentary that celebrates the achievements of the Soviet Union and Lenin's role in creating them.
How the miners of the Don coal basin (one of the industrial regions of Ukraine) were striving to fulfill in four years their part of the Five Year Plan.
This documentary film is showing the hard labor of countrymen in industrial production to strengthen the U.S.S.R. economy and turning their country into a world power.
A series of newsreel films from Dziga Vertov, Elizaveta Svilova, and Mikhail Kaufman which document Russian Life in the early 1920s.
Despite the good imagery and photography, this Dziga Vertov feature, though often interesting, is in general rather a disappointment.
There are many fine features from the Soviet cinema of the 1920s and 1930s, in which the skill of film-makers like Eisenstein, Dovzhenko, Vertov himself, and others far outweighs any small doses of politically-mandated content. It is unfortunate that some very elegant films of that era are often described as propaganda pieces, when they actually have far too much depth for that label to be appropriate. All this is simply to say how unfortunate it is to have to point out that, indeed, "Three Songs of Lenin" might have been much, much better without the heavy-handed propaganda statements with which it is laced.
There's no reason in itself why a film praising Lenin could not still work as cinema, and indeed at least two of the three "songs" contain some worthwhile ideas. But the title cards and some of the dialogue simply go way too far in trying to build up Lenin's legacy, and it is not long before it gets to be too much. The lavish praises that the movie heaps upon him would be ridiculous even if they were being applied to Washington, Churchill, de Gaulle or any other world leader. No one leader deserves anything approaching that much credit for his country's successes, and no human leader or ruler deserves such unstinting and unqualified praise.
Vertov was a skilled and creative film-maker, as he proved in pictures such as "Man With a Movie Camera". And even here, there is plenty of good photography and other material to work with. A more restrained approach would have resulted in a much better film. It's still of interest to those interested in the era, and it does have some definite strengths; it's just not nearly as good as you could have hoped for it to be.


The purpose of this project is to buy a building, which will accommodate all the activities of the organization. It will include an office, a counselling room, a small shop to sell the CRVO products (candles, bread, crème and soap), as well as a room that will be a sick bay and will have the necessary first aid equipment.
Today children rescue voluntary organization operates in a building which is not big enough and for which the rent continues to increase which is a financial problem for CRVO. From July on the rent will from 600000 to 800000 Uganda Shillings monthly. Once such a structure is bought CRVO will become independent from paying rent and it will generate some income, as the own-produced products will be sold from there.
The multipurpose building will allow CRVO to continue all its activities in a very conducive environment as well as improving on the socio economic status of the more than 100 children and their households.
On July 15th the sales agreement was signed.
The move took place in the last weekend of July.
CRVO is very grateful to Vleugels van Hoop for supporting them!
Al funds (37.500 €) were used for the purchase of the multifunctional building.

SAMMY FELICIANO
Born: New York City
Liborio Feliciano, his grandfather
Born: Lares, Puerto Rico
LISTEN TO HIS ORAL HISTORY
This page requires a web browser that can display objects. We recommend Netscape Navigator.
He was a hardworking man too. My grandfather used to wake up around 5 o'clock in the morning and work on his farm and he used to come back around 7:30--8 o'clock at night. He was just too dedicated with his farm, that was his number one thing--to make sure his farm was in great shape. Back over there, in Puerto Rico, when my grandfather used to work on his farm, over there you're used to eating fresh food. Not like in New York. In New York, you have to buy your things. Now, these days, everything's chemical. But in his day, everything was fresh, everything from the ground.
[What did he teach you? You said he taught you a lot of stuff?]
How to raise the animals, like the pigs, chickens. I used to give the food to the pigs, clean their "corral"--they call it "corral" in Puerto Rico--and give corn to the chickens. When they used to lay their eggs, we used to take their eggs. If a chicken stays on her eggs too long, it makes them hot and they won't be no good no more. He taught me a lot. He taught me a whole lot. He taught me how to cut bananas down from the trees, how to get oranges. It was an experience. A lot of experience. There's a lot of people who are raised in New York--they don't get the opportunity the way I did. You learn a lot of things from when your mother was young, and when your grandfather was young--back in those days. But I learned a lot. People told me it was going to be boring, I'm going to suffer. I didn't suffer. I learned a lot. If I go over there next time, I'll know what to do. Not like some other people that go over there and don't know nothing about farms and all that.
[And do you often think of your grandfather?]
All the time I do. Everyday I think about him. I still say that he's alive even though he died. My grandfather's never been to New York--never, never been to New York. He told me that he'll come to New York when they build a bridge to cross..."

January 22, 1938 ~ September 20, 2018 (age 80)

From Clary Street, she went to Keyser Primary Middle School where she taught reading as a part of the Title I program.
Always a creative person, Mildred opened and ran The Country Nitch for nine years. The Nitch was her home studio, a cozy residential gift ship for selling and showcasing her own creations and decorating ideas.
Mildred was deeply involved in various charities and organizations. She was the spokesperson for mentally and physically abused women at the Family Crises Center, worked tirelessly for the Special Olympics, participated in the Summer Story-telling programs at the Piedmont Library; was a Boy's Scouts of American Den Mother, and also an annual volunteer with Toys for Happiness.
A wonderful mother she is survived by her beloved children: Robin Seabury (Landon Brown) of Charleston, WV, Theodore (Clarence) Washington (Jennifer Riggs) of Fredericksburg, VA, Christa Hagins and her husband Carl, of Bowie, MD and Melissa Washington of Pittsburgh, PA., and her grandchildren: Michaella, Madison, Marissa, Grant, Blake Griffin and Hudson, as well as her dear friend Sharon Junkins.

Man jailed for a year after coughing on three police officers
Officers were called to domestic incident in Morice Town but Ritchie Buckthorpe made matters worse by fighting officers and claiming he was "not well"
Carl EveCrime reporter

A man has been jailed for 52 weeks after he pleaded guilty to deliberately coughing over three officers while he was being arrested - and then telling them he was "not well".
Ritchie Buckthorpe, aged 31, of no fixed abode, appeared at Exeter Magistrates' Court on April 4 following an incident the previous day at a property in Morice Town, Plymouth.
Officers were called to the address a few minutes after midnight on April 3 where they encountered Buckthorpe who turned violent and aggressive.
Police say he was taken to the floor as he continued to be violent with the officers. At one stage he coughed directly into the face of one officer when they were just six inches apart. He then coughed over the other two officers twice each as they struggled.
Exeter Magistrates Court
He then shouted at the officers "oh yea, I'm definitely not well either".
The evidence was handed to the Crown Prosecution Service who deemed the matter to be a coronavirus-related assault on an emergency worker.
Crime Tsar says people who spit at cops will be punished
Man who spat in officer's face jailed for six months
He received a 26 week sentence for the assault on one officer and 26 weeks for the assault on another officer, with the sentences to run concurrently. However, he was then handed a 26 week sentence for the assault on the first officer, with the sentence to run consecutively, bringing the total sentence to 52 weeks.

Wellesley's Sprague School principal to step down
March 4, 2019 by Deborah Brown Leave a Comment
Sprague School principal Susan Snyder
Wellesley's Sprague Elementary School is seeking a replacement for Principal Susan Snyder, who is retiring in June after running the 369-student K – 5 school since 2015.
Snyder came to Sprague from Hannah Elementary School in Beverly, Massachusetts, where she had served since 2006.
"I am proud to work in a school where students are respectful, and speak their minds," Snyder said in a letter to the Sprague community, "where they are kind and empathetic, and where everyone is welcome. I know Sprague will continue to be this kind of school for as long as its doors are open. For now, I plan to keep on enjoying Sprague and am committed to giving you my best until the day I leave in June."
Snyder named the pilot and implementation of Spanish Foreign Language for Elementary Students (FLES) instruction and the ongoing work supporting improvement in curriculum and instruction as two of the most noteworthy and rewarding projects on which she worked.
Snyder will leave big shoes to fill. The educator holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Gettysburg College (PA) a Masters from Lesley University in Special Education, and a Masters from Salem State University in Educational Leadership. Ms. Snyder is fluent in Spanish and is licensed as Principal / Assistant Principal and Superintendent / Assistant Superintendent through the Massachusetts Department of Elementary & Secondary Education
Superintendent David Lussier said, "We remain grateful for Ms. Snyder's strong leadership at Sprague during the past five years and for her 37 years of service in public education in Massachusetts. Ms. Snyder has touched the lives of thousands of students during her career and she will be sorely missed both at Sprague and as a member of our District leadership team."
Lussier's office is seeking candidates for the 2014-day work-year position who hold at minimum a Master's Degree and licensure as an elementary school principal. Previous teaching experience and administrative experience at the building or district level is required. The job starts July 1, 2019 and the salary range is $128,265 – $147,151.
Lussier and the transition team has scheduled meetings with parents and staff to provide an overview of the search process and develop the leadership profile that will help inform selection deliberations. The staff meeting is Monday, March 11th at 3:15pm in the Sprague Library, and the parent meeting is Monday, March 11th at 6pm in the Sprague Library.
Lussier hopes to make a final appointment by the end of April.
Some past Sprague principals:
Stephen Goodwin, 2010 – 2015
Donna Dankner, 2007 – 2010
Fiske the last Wellesley school to switch up the top slot
In 2016, Wellesley named Rachel McGregor as principal of Fiske on an interim basis for the 2015-16 school year. She replaced Anthony Colannino, whose contract wasn't renewed after three years on the job.
After a search that attracted a pool of 53 applicants for the Fiske principalship, McGregor beat them all out and was appointed to the job in March 2016.

So, as I understand things...
There's this great big cloud of dust and gas. We're talking big, here. The dust and gas swirls around, and sometimes accumulates in dense areas. If there is enough matter in one place, gravitational forces generate enough pressure to start a nuclear reaction - and a star is born.
Stars have a limited shelf life, and will die when all the hydrogen at their core is depleted. Depending on the size of the star, various things happen. If a star is big enough, there will be a rather large explosion - a supernova. Supernovas occur around once a century in our galaxy (the milky way).
In the early universe, only the elements hydrogen and helium existed. When stars die, and their hydrogen supply runs out, new elements are formed under the intense pressure and heat. When stars go supernova, these elements are ejected out into space. Every physical thing we can see, know or imagine is made up of these elements, including every atom in our body. We truly are star dust.
Originally the gas and dust that would become our Sun was the core of a cloud much larger than the solar system, probably several light-years across. The core was slowly rotating at first, but as it collapsed it spun faster, like a spinning ice-skater pulling in her arms. The rotation prevented the material at the core's equator from collapsing as fast as material at the poles, so the core became a spinning disk.
Gas and dust in the disk spiraled gradually in to the center, where it accumulated to form the Sun. But because dust is denser than gas, some of the dust settled to the mid-plane of the disk. These dust particles stuck together to make clumps, then clumps stuck together to make rocks, then rocks collided to make planets. In the case of the "gas giant" planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, the rocky cores were massive enough to also attract some of the gas. The outer layers of these planets are made up of hydrogen and other gases.
So the Sun is the collapsed core of an interstellar gas cloud, and the planets, asteroids and comets are small lumps of dust or ice chunks which stayed in orbit instead of spiraling into the Sun. The planets all formed within a very short period, probably a few million years, about five billion years ago.
The sun comprises around 98% of all the matter in the solar system. It is 875,000 miles in diameter, and so distant that light takes around eight minutes and twenty seconds to travel the 93 million miles which lie between us. The next nearest star to us is the faint, red dwarf star called Proxima Centauri. This star is only 4.2 light-years away. 4.2 light years? That's nothing, surely. Only about 266,000 times further away than the sun. The farthest object we know of in the universe is estimated to be (wait for it) 30,000,000,000 light years away. That's thirty billion light years. So if we shine a torch in that direction, 30 billion years later the light will get there. Phew.
Our galaxy, the milky way, contains an estimated 200 to 400 billion stars. There are an estimated 100 to 200 billion galaxies in the known universe. How many stars and potential planets in total? You do the sums, my head hurts... It does put things into perspective :)
I don't have any lessons until 11:45, so I pop up to see Gary about Tina's bike, and it's good news - he should be able to get the one I want before the week-end.
Tim and Peggy pop round for a cup of tea and we have a pleasant chat. When I go to my lesson, the learner isn't there. I send them a text message, and come home. I'm able to finally sort out a photo project for Lesley. Last week or the week before I asked her if she needed anything for her new flat, and she said a photo of the family would be good. I got a nice frame the other day, and have made a print using five pictures of the four of us at different ages. For once, everything goes smoothly with the printing. I make a second print for Jim, which is also successful, then the printer spits out a message saying one of the cartridges is empty.
I see Nicola at 4:30, our third lesson, things go well. Home for dinner, then meet Ben at the station for a late lesson at 6:30. He has his test tomorrow. I'm wondering if anyone will pass at the moment. Ben should, but so should the last two candidates...

San Jose Public Library offers a variety of ESL (English as a Second Language) and citizenship classes for immigrants and English learners. Recently, I sat down with Cris Johnson, the Family Learning Center Coordinator at Seven Trees Branch Library, to discuss the classes that she teaches. Cris has been teaching English for over ten years, and has a Master's Degree in Teaching English as a Second Language from the University of San Francisco. For Cris, teaching English is more than just a career; it is her passion.
How long have you been an ESL teacher for the library?
I've been teaching ESL since my hire date of Sept. 2007.
I was going through a career change and teaching was one of the top career choices in the Meyers Briggs test I took. I decided to give it a try by first getting a program certificate, I was hooked and the rest is history.
There are several favorite moments that I cherish. First and foremost is see how the students gain self confidence and self-esteem, turning them from shy and soft spoken to assertive and outspoken. Second, I treasure the words and cards and of appreciation that I receive: "you're like a big sister" or "thank you for teaching us", "thanks for your time and patience". Finally, I value their input during class discussions which becomes a learning moment for me also, they share information about their customs, traditions and culture; what they think about the U.S. and what challenges they encounter when trying to assimilate and become mainstream New Americans.
I offer classes in the 4 skill areas: Reading, Writing, Speaking, & Listening. My classes are about 85% Speaking and Listening, 10% Reading and 5% Writing. This came about because the students expressed their need to speak like a native speaker and be able to listen well without fear of being embarrassed. Most of the students are quite proficient in grammar and are able to read too and I wanted them to walk away with a tool they can use in their daily life. Speaking well is one such tool.
The participants must be at least 18 years old and English is a second (or foreign) language for them. Since this is a program offered by the library, any member of the public may attend all the free classes offered. I do recommend that the student attend the correct level i.e. Advance, Advance-Intermediate, High Beginning and Low Beginning. I also give out handouts for each class. They come from our FLC collection which I recommend to all of the participants.
Anything else you'd like people to know about your classes?
I'd like them to know that the class size is small and therefore everyone has a chance to participate. I have customized lesson materials, which vary for every skill level. To enhance the learning experience I also have as a supplement, audio cd's, YouTube learning videos and DVDs. Every session is a stand alone and this is important to students who have conflicting schedules. They can come at any day or time they are available without missing anything from prior lesson/materials.
Submitted by Leizel Case on Monday, June 27, 2016 - 12:58 AM.
Should it say "Advanced, Advance-Intermediated," instead of "Advance, Advance-Intermediate?"
At the Hillview branch, Ms. Cris had also hosted a children's reading program that helped inspire confidence in my shy child. I appreciate what she does for our community.

How the Nose Knows
Smell and Memory
When Your Smell Is Not Well
Written by: Pierce Hutton and Megan Turnidge
The Science of Smelling
As you flip to the next chapter of an old book, you smell a unique mustiness. But wait, mmmm, you realize you can also smell something delicious – someone must be making dinner in the kitchen. Even though a pizza is being cooked way over on the other side of the house, your nose still lets you know it's almost time to eat.
What makes some things seem to smell so strongly, while others seem to have no scent? Image by jeffreyw.
But what is your nose actually picking up on when you smell pizza? Why can you smell it from far away when some things—like the chair you're sitting in—you don't seem to smell at all?
Smell isn't just important for making you hungry whenever food is around. Smell is an important part of our survival. When you smell food, an animal, or even an object, you can often use that information to tell you what that thing is and what condition it is in. You might be able to use your sense of smell to tell if food is spoiled. When we smell that food is spoiled, we don't have to "taste test" to figure out if it will make us sick. Our ancestors used all their senses – including smell – to hunt animals and find edible food in the wild.
Your sense of smell is called olfaction. Your sense of smell relies on your nose's recognition of tiny particles in the air called odorants. Odorant particles are released from their source for many different reasons. A pizza in the oven is being heated, so many of its molecules will gain extra heat energy that allows them to vaporize and fly into the air.
Air fresheners are made of volatile, or easily vaporized, substances that are kept sealed in a bottle until you spray them, at which point they are free to travel through the air. A chair, on the other hand, is a solid that's just sitting there, so almost none of its molecules will find their way into the air and your nose. But if you were to use the chair in a campfire, the solid particles would be heated up and changed chemically to a gas. Since the gas flows through the air, you could then smell the chair.
The Many Types of Odors
Although there are many different types of smells, scientists have done a lot of work to put them into categories. Scientists still disagree on how many categories there should be, but here are some of the main ones:
• Musky smells
Musky perfumes used to be made from the secretion of a special gland on the musk deer, like the one pictured here. Image by ErikAdamsson.
Think about your mom's perfume or your dad's aftershave: these have a lot of musk. In fact, the musky smell comes from a chemical called muscone which comes from deer and some plants, and people used to collect muscone from them to make perfumes. People now use artificial compounds made in the lab that mimic the musky smell.
• Floral smells
Floral smells resemble the smells from flowers. Flowers release these smells to attract animals, like bees and butterflies, so that they can pollinate them. Floral smells are also used in a lot of perfumes and candles, because they are very pleasant.
• Pungent smells
Pungent smells are very strong and sharp. If you have done a lot of cooking, you might have used vinegar before. Vinegar is often described as pungent, which is made from the chemical acetic acid. Pungent smells can also include things like hot spices from chili peppers.
• Peppermint smells
Mint is a plant that creates a chemical called menthol. There are different varieties of mint, like spearmint and peppermint. Many people like mint, and mint smells are often in a lot of candies.
• Putrid smells
The corpse flower (Amorphophallus titanum) smells very putrid: it mimics the smell of decaying things to keep predators at bay. Some of the compounds in its smell are like those of rotting fish (like trimethylamine) and sweaty socks (like isovaleric acid).
Putrid smells come from dead things as their tissues are breaking down. As bacteria and fungi start to eat something dead, they release a lot of gases which give off a foul and very unpleasant smell.
• Camphor smells
Camphoraceous smells come from camphor, which is made by some trees, and from things like sea breezes and mothballs. People used to place mothballs in their closets to kill moths that would eat cotton clothing. Most people describe camphor as a pleasant smell.
• Ethereal smells
These smells resemble those of cleaning fluids, or ether. They are also found in a lot of essential oils, like lavender and eucalyptus. It also has a hint of sweetness to the smell. People often think of ethereal smells as being pleasant and calming.
With so many different smells out there, how does your nose recognize what you smell and send that information to your brain?

Being a $278.3 billion industry, cloud computing is undoubtedly one of the biggest game changers in this internet age.
It has transformed how we create, share, and access important information.
But what exactly is cloud computing? And how can you leverage its benefits for your small business?
When you move your business to the cloud, it means that all your data, programs, and software are stored on the internet as opposed to physical devices.
Your business data is stored on secure servers maintained by your cloud service provider.
To learn more about this revolutionary technology, here's a comprehensive beginner's guide to cloud computing for business.
With all the benefits that come with the cloud, it's no surprise to see more and more small businesses migrating to the cloud.
With cloud computing, you forgo significant overhead costs. For instance, you don't have to buy the hardware to run a data center since everything is online.
You also don't have to pay for power, physical security, space, and ongoing maintenance of your hardware.
As a result, you get to have better management of your entire infrastructure.
Protecting business data is a crucial step for all types of businesses.
Traditionally, critical information has been stored on-site where it's vulnerable to loss, damage, and theft.
With cloud computing, only the employees with the necessary clearance can access your data. Additionally, your data is encrypted to deter hackers.
With cloud computing, multiple employees can access and edit a single file or document from anywhere in the world. This accessibility allows them to collaborate remotely in real time.
You also get the flexibility to serve your customers even when you're away from the office. Your data on the cloud is always available and up to date. This results in enhanced productivity in your business operations.
Also, you can utilize specialized systems to integrate and sync contacts and apps to gain a 360-degree view of all your business operations.
Businesses on the cloud can easily go global without any extra costs. This means that you can optimally utilize resources with little to no overhead.
What are Cloud Computing Models?
IaaS is the most basic cloud computing for your business. It allows you to replace your physical servers and storage with a cloud-based system.
It also eliminates the need to set up and maintain on-site data centers. Scaling is also quick and easy as most clouds computing providers offer instant upgrades.
The PaaS comes with all features of the IaaS, but also has additions such as cloud-based operating systems and development tools. It's often used to design and test new computer software.
This cloud computing model is also known as a pay-per-use service. It's becoming a popular software distribution model in which applications are hosted by service providers and offered to clients on a subscription basis.
The user experience is seamless as you don't have to worry about any software or hardware maintenance.
With all the benefits of cloud computing, it'll be such a shame if you didn't take full advantage of this online technological revolution right now.
Cloud computing for business can go a long way in streamlining your business activities and boosting profits.

Changing the siding of your home can give it an updated and new look. That's because new sidings can make your house look all fresh and new. And let's not forget the fact that if, your house looks all new then, its value will also go up which is obviously good for you. Speaking of sidings, there are different types of sidings that are available in the market. You can either choose the sidings on your own or you could ask your siding contractor Downriver Michigan to choose it for you. Now let's learn about the different types of sidings that you could go for.
Before you choose a siding for your house, you must consider certain things of much importance. Like the appearance of the siding, the maintenance cost of the siding, its durability, etc. these are some of the different factors that you need to take into account.
Wooden Siding: Sidings made of wood have been around for a very long time now. They are one of the best options that you could go for. However, there are some issues with wooden sidings. They are much more expensive than the other sidings, and also it incurs a heavy maintenance cost as wooden sidings are prone to insect infestation. So before you go for wooden sidings, you better think twice.
Metal Sidings: These types of sidings are mostly used for commercial buildings and are not common for residential purposes. While metal sidings are great when it comes to durability but it doesn't fit right for residential homes. Also, the cost of maintenance of metal sidings is is much lower than the other types of sidings.
Fiber Cement Siding: This is one of the most popular sidings that is preferred by people. Compared to the other types of siding, this is quite new. But because of its plus points, it has certainly gained quite a lot of popularity.
Vinyl Siding: When it comes to performance and durability, nothing beats the vinyl siding. Also, the cost of this type of siding is much lower than the other which is a good thing.
So, now you know the different types of sidings available in the market, you can select the one that suits your house the best. But make sure that you keep all the points in mind before making your decision.

Heroism in Gattaca (Film)
"Identify and evaluate what human qualities Gattaca considers to be heroic. Do you agree with the film's views?"
Gattaca is a film that conveys many messages regarding what human qualities constitute heroism. Vincent Freeman is usually the character through which these qualities are highlighted and explored. It is often suggested that Vincent's journey through Gattaca (both the film and the institution) qualify as heroic. Thus, it could be asserted that the qualities that Vincent exhibits throughout this journey are considered by the film to be heroic.
A hero's plight, as remembered by history and represented by Hollywood, seldom deviates from its clichéd formula: a self-sacrificing, determined, courageous, and possibly oppressed person who is, at first, not popularly expected to succeed, ultimately achieves their dreams and receives some form of reward – often a woman. Vincent's journey through Gattaca cannot be entirely seen through this filter of glowing commendability. Rather, Vincent is a character whose negative qualities conform to Greek mythology's definition of a hero: a person, often of divine descent, endowed with great courage and strength, and favoured by the gods. A Greek hero's title can be maintained whilst they exhibit qualities such as; disobedience, anti-social tendencies, selfishness and arrogance.
Vincent's courage is demonstrated repeatedly in the film. His courage can be observed, at the widest level, through Vincent's choice to cheat the system. The legal implications of Vincent's path, although not specified, are suggested to be extreme – thus his willingness to be subject to such imperilment underlines this aspect of his courage. Vincent is assured by his family and society, from a young age, that: "…the only way [he will]…see the inside of a space shuttle is if [he is]…cleaning it. This condemnation should discourage Vincent from aspiring to a better life, but it only seems to cement his ambition. For a person to stand up against an entire institution, and his own family, could be seen as courageous. However, it is through circumventing the system, that many of Vincent's less commendable qualities are made explicit.
It would be expected of a hero to challenge that which is unjust, rather than cheat it. Vincent's aforementioned actions are considered by his society to be criminal, thus his heroic image would appear to be diminished. However, in the eyes of Greek mythology, these actions diminish his character no more than many Greek heroes' flaws, for example; Odysseus' hubris, Jason's unfaithfulness, Ballerophon's murderous habits or Zeus' promiscuity. This path of dishonesty, however, leaves Vincent's character open to criticism once again, as it accounts for his more violent episodes.
Vincent brutally beats an innocent police investigator, whose only crime was doing his job. Vincent's actions, although reprehensible, are comparable to those committed by many Greek heroes. Heracles' more antisocial tendencies is one example of this.
It is interesting to note that the name of our hero's mother is Marie – a variant of "Mary" – who was/is a pivotal figure of western "mythology". A characteristic of a Greek hero is often divine decent thus Vincent's divine ancestry is subtly alluded to. This quality in Vincent accounts for other qualities that are central to the profile of a Greek hero: being blessed with strength and favoured by the gods. The strength of Vincent can be observed through his courage, and his being endeared by the gods, in his ultimate success and his dreams being granted.
Self sacrifice is considered by many to be a compulsory quality in a hero. However, Vincent is entirely self interested – he acts only to further his own cause. Not once in the film does Vincent help anyone directly – with his most selfless actions being the possible inspiring of Lamar's son and supplying Eugene with "closure". This quality, again, has parallels in the characters of many Greek heroes.
Arrogance is another "unbecoming" quality that Vincent demonstrates near the end of the film, as he says: "Just remember…I was as good as any, and better than most…" Again, this quality is very common in Greek heroes.
A protagonist's background of oppression can often be the prelude of their path to heroism. Vincent does deal with much adversity – with his society and family dooming him to a life of unattractive public service. This criterion of the heroic formula is common to both western and Greek mythological heroes.
All of these heroic qualities present in Vincent's character, serve to supply him with the title of a "hero". However, Gattaca is a film that deals with far more than heroism and its human application.
Gattaca, for the most part, utilizes Vincent and his heroic qualities as a means of communicating its more central themes of; discrimination, identity, society, the human condition and eugenics. Vincent is a; victim of discrimination, a "particularly detested segment of the population", a social outcast, and the medium through which the film's disdainful views on eugenics are conveyed. Without Vincent and his role as a hero, these themes would have been communicated to a far less convincing extent.
Overall, Vincent's heroic qualities serve to convey Gattaca's unique view of heroism: that heroism can be constructed of an anachronistic conglomeration of heroic characteristics and qualities.

Squared Platinum Wedding Band
Based on a request by a customer, I not only established a way of making a platinum wedding ring reflecting some of the basic shapes of the bride's rings, but made the ring with an essentially square configuration. A ring such as or similar to this could also be made of gold.
When inquiring about this ring, please make reference to jlwdpt30 and provide a general idea regarding the ring size or sizes. The telephone number and tab to initiate an email are located at the top of the page. Otherwise, the email address is farley@artwork-inform.com
Please click on the picture
to view a larger version
The pair of lines traversing the surface continue all the way around the ring. the outermost portions have been brought to a high polish. A substantial texture has been applied to the platinum in region between the lines. The visual distinction between the two textures seen side by side is dramatic.

The IAMA organization is established for charitable and educational purposes, for assisting students in the field of medicine financially and for providing healthcare assistance to needy Iranians.
These days the backbone of any organizations is its website. IAMA has been struggling to have a dynamic and progressive website for many years and finally I am happy to announce the launch of our new dynamic and easy to use website.


Last month, I got a tour of an upstart web TV station, OnlyOneTV.com.
With not much beyond a few cheap cameras and lights, some video switching software and a fast internet connection, these guys are hosting and creating a bunch of TV talk shows on a variety of topics.
It reaffirms something that I first realized in the middle 1990s when I read Paul A. McKinley's memoir of his WWII service at his website, CruiserScout.com.
"Traditional" media like over the air TV and radio, cable and satellite, printed newspapers and magazines, theatrical films, they all put a lot of effort and money into the basic mechanics of publishing and distributing.
We now live in an age when anyone with an internet connection can distribute their own content for free or close to it. Fiction, nonfiction, video, audio, photographs, paintings, podcasts, webisodes, blogs, tweets- anyone can make them and post them. Transmitters, printing presses, film prints, none of this is necessary with web based media.
Independent film makers have been distributing their own films for decades by booking their own theaters and printing their own DVDs. Now they can also stream through services like Hulu, Netflix and iTunes. Even if they can't get their film into one of those channels, they can still post it on their own website, and maybe sell some advertising and charge per view.
But being able to distribute your own media is still only a small part of the equation. You still need to get someone else to find it, something that most independents still struggle with. But the biggest hurdle is to make something that's worth watching- even the networks and studios often struggle with that!


adriandale.co.uk » Blog Archive » Gigs! Art! Gigs! Art!
April's been a busy month - I'm back chained to a desk full time in The City, which although it hasn't stopped me going out, it certainly hasn't helped. Still, my loss is the world of finance's gain, I guess. And some rich person is now just a little bit richer thanks to my efforts. I can't begin to describe how happy (or otherwise) that makes me feel.
Anyway, work's not what life's about. Not for me, at least. So, what else have I been up to?
The picture shows the Art! part of the title. Or at least a part of the art. It is the Tate Modern, taken (unbelievably, looking at the pic) on a bright and sunny day. I visited the Tate Modern twice in April, once with a group from friend Clare's Meet at Last website for their Sunday Serendipity outing, and once a week later on a date.
Of course there's more … I also visited the Hogarth exhibition at Tate Britain with a friend. The exhibition featured both his paintings and his etchings. I was especially impressed with the latter.
Although etchings look like technical pen drawings, they are, of course etched. In this case into a sheet of copper with a sharp point. The etchings are done in reverse, so that the copper block can be inked and stamped to make a picture. Hogarth seemed well ahead of his time in the sales and marketing of his etchings, which were sold through newspapers as a subscription series.
And what about the Gigs?
Having not seen any live music for ages, I managed two gigs in one week. Just the way things worked out. First off was 30 Seconds To Mars at The Astoria. I like their music, so no problem there. What was a pleasant surprise was just how cheerful and upbeat they were with the crowd. I'd been expecting them to be far more po-faced about their music, for some reason. Their cheerfulness extended to them having the audience teach them a football chant (Football's coming home) and inviting a young audience member onto the stage to meet the band. Thanks to Tom for organising this.
Spiritualized at the Shepherd's Bush Empire were a total contrast. They played an acoustic set complete with Gospel singers and string accompaniment. Their music was peaceful and mellow, gentle enough to almost lull me to sleep.
And as if all that excitement wasn't enough for a month (it wasn't!) I've also been playing all sorts of sports, going to the gym, walking whereever I can and exercising at home.
Realising I had lost my Fisher Space Pen through a hole in my pocket was a sad moment, as I'd had it several years and it has travelled with me nearly every day since I bought it. Replacement ones are a sizeable percentage more expensive than they were when I bought my very first one.
And finally, worth a mention because of it's sheer bizarreness - "Break Out", which was weird, but definitely fun. Thanks to James for organising.

While viewing a 360-degree video on a computer, you can use the mouse to drag the point of view around, or simply use the four arrows that show up in the top left (as seen in the screenshot above).
This functionality is even neater on Android devices, where you can simply move your phone or tablet around while one such video is playing in order to see different angles. Here's an example playlist comprised only of 360-degree videos.
YouTube has apparently been working with companies making 360-degree cameras in developing this functionality. If you own such a gadget, know that for now you need to use a special script on a video file in order to insert the correct metadata. All the details are at the Source link below, and the good news is that YouTube plans on making the process automatic in the future.


Are you ready for Christmas? Have you wrapped all your gifts and baked all your goodies? Is the house all decorated with festive greenery and lights and ornaments? Here at our house, we've been doing a little every day for the past few weeks, and except for the baking which I will be doing later this week and over the weekend, I would say we're in pretty good shape.
I even took the time to make Christmas pillowcases for my two little cherubs. They got to use them on their pillows for movie night at their school where lots of their friends brought sleeping bags and pillows and wore their jammies for an evening of games and treats and a movie in the gym. It was great fun for everyone!
This fabric is from Connecting Threads and came in a kit to make two pillowcases using the popular burrito design of sewing a pillowcase where there are no unfinished seams when it is finished. Isn't the fabric just darling? I love those snowmen!
I've also been working on making the binding for the I Spy quilts that I quilted early in the fall. I was hoping to have them all bound and ready to go before Christmas either for my Etsy shop or for our local shelter, but I don't think that is going to happen. I was, however, able to enjoy using the never ending bias binding method from my tutorial to make all four bindings while we were having our well tank replaced the other day. That's always a good way to occupy yourself when you have to hang around waiting for a project like that to be done and you don't have access to any water in the house for a few hours! Ugh! Then the next day, the kitchen faucet started leaking all over the place, so my husband spent the beginning of his Christmas vacation replacing that! I don't even want to think about what will go next!
So anyway, I've been keeping busy with Christmas preparations and activities with the family and at school and have not been stressing too much about new projects or taking pictures or posting for now. My kids won't be this young ever again and I don't want to regret not spending time with them and for them in favor of my hobby. But I'll have pictures soon of the Bernat Mystery Crochet-along afghan that is so close to being finished, and also the gifts I am making for one of my sisters and for my mother.
I put a few new tools on my Christmas list this year, so if Santa is really good to me and paid close attention to the list I sent him (links and sale dates and free shipping offers included), then I should have some cool new toys to show you after Christmas! Oh, the anticipation!
I sure hope Santa is good to you this year, and that you spend precious time with your family and friends this Christmas season.
You are so right. The kiddos grow up so fast and the time you spend with them is far more valuable than your hobby time. Enjoy the season with your family and show us pictures when you can. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Happy holidays to you and your family. Thanks for the wonderful projects and ideas you have shared with us this past year!

I haven't spent any time writing about the misleading attack videos on Planned Parenthood being put out by yet another shadowy anti-abortion group, so let me dispense with this.
Harris County District Attorney Devon Anderson said Wednesday her office has begun a criminal investigation into the Houston branch of Planned Parenthood after the release earlier this week of a video showing an agency executive discussing the preservation of organs of aborted fetuses.
Anderson, who described the video as being "disturbing," said she has reviewed it, as have prosecutors and investigators in her office.
The video was the fifth to be released by the California-based Center for Medical Progress, an anti-abortion group whose activists in April secretly recorded Melissa Farrell with the Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast. She discusses how to preserve aborted fetuses for research purposes as well as the different types, methods and costs of fetal tissue harvesting. The videos are part of the group's campaign to show that Planned Parenthood illegally sells fetal tissue to scientists.
Anderson said the first step in the investigation process is to obtain the complete, unedited video to make sure they know the context of all of Farrell's statements. She said an investigation is "warranted at this time," but added it is "premature" to say what crimes, if any, the branch has committed.
Go ahead and investigate away. As was the case with the state of Indiana, I seriously doubt there will be anything to find. That's what one should expect when a group of fundamentally dishonest people with ties to violent extremists engage in a dishonest campaign to elicit a political reaction. They got their reaction, but that doesn't mean anyone should trust a word they say. I fully expect the investigation here to come up empty as well. On the plus side, KUHF notes that Anderson "will also look for evidence of any laws being broken by the anti-abortion group", so maybe something positive will come out of this. That would be ironic, and richly deserved if it happens. My money is still on this being quietly dropped as a nothingburger, though.
"Anderson "will also look for evidence of any laws being broken by the anti-abortion group"", I'll believe that when it happens. I have a bad felling about this. It's not like Harris county has sterling reputation of fair treatment from the DA office. I see some comment from PP being taken out of context and charges trumped up against them.
Hard to investigate an organization for something they don't do. Would really appreciate the DA investigating, you know, crime.


STARSPORT brings you all of the latest Manchester United news - involving Paul Pogba, Gareth Bale and Jose Mourinho.
Paul Pogba limped off with a hamstring injury during the win over Basel.
Manchester United are sweating on the fitness of star man Paul Pogba.
The Frenchman limped off midway through the first half as the Red Devils beat Basel in the Champions League.
Pogba was captaining the side for the evening but had to relinquish the armband after pulling a hamstring in a challenge.
Marouane Fellaini replaced the 24-year-old and soon got on the scoresheet to send United into the break one goal up.
Jose Mourinho will be hoping the midfielder is back for the visit of Everton this weekend.
Gareth Bale claims there is an 'argument' for him joining Manchester United.
The Welshman has been linked with a move to Old Trafford for some time but has remained at Spanish giants Real Madrid.
This summer saw those rumours return but Zinedine Zidane told Bale he wanted the player to remain at the Bernabeu.
However, Bale has admitted a return to England would be appealing.
When quizzed about a potential move, the midfielder said: "Be the star but win less? Well there's an argument for that.
"But I think the main thing, when you look back on your career, is that you look at your trophies."
Bale has struggled for form and fitness in recent seasons but the draw of challenging for the Champions League every season may be enough to make him want to stay in Spain.
Paul Pogba has a new hairstyle with the word "equal" cut into it.
Jose Mourinho has asked for help from the Premier League when it comes to competing on the European stage.
The Portuguese boss insists he isn't asking for the introduction of a winter beak due to his love of the Christmas fixtures.
However, he believes teams like PSG and Benfica are given more time to recover before games by playing their league games on a Friday night.
"We have to admit there are differences in relation to other countries, that's obvious, but there is nothing to do.
Mourinho has distanced himself from his side being one of the favourites for the competition, insisting Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus are the teams to catch.

Why We Dance
Our Dance Stories
by George Beaver
For the Haudenosaunee, both social dancing and the older sacred dances are aspects of prayer, as are the songs and chants accompanying the dances. Dancing and singing are inseparable; both are ways to communicate with the Creator. The Creator is pleased when people dance and sing for Him. It is a way to tell the Creator that we are happy and thankful for our good health and for this life He has given us. It is a way of giving thanks beyond mere words. Perhaps dancing to give thanks is older than language.
Sacred Songs and Dances
The Haudenosaunee have embedded these sacred beliefs in traditional ceremonies. Each ritual dance has several sacred songs. Three important sacred ceremonies are the Curing Dances, Sacred Society Dances and Sustenance Dances.
While the Curing and Sacred Society Dances are private, the Sustenance Dance is one of the most prominent Social Dances. Sustenance refers to the foods our Haudenosaunee ancestors gathered and ate over the centuries. The Sustenance Dances include the Corn Dance (Onehe odie:na), the Bean Dance (Osahe da odie:na) and the Squash Dance (Onyohsa odie:na). Corn, beans and squash were planted together in one "hill" and sustained each other: the bean vines climbed up the sturdy corn stalks and the wide squash leaves kept the weeds down and helped keep the "hill" moist after a rain. In this way, each of these three sisters helped each other grow and produce more sustenance for the Haudenosaunee. These three have always been important to our diet.
The Social Dances are uniquely ours. Although many of the 500 North American indigenous nations have not survived, "Indian" reserves or reservations hold powwows each summer. These celebrations have a proud history among many, but not all, First Nations. For example, most Northwest Coastal peoples feast, give speeches, honour people, sing and dance at community potlatches rather than the powwow, and the Haudenosaunee Social Dances as well are not suitable for powwows except as demonstration dances.
Longhouses
The Haudenosaunee, or Longhouse People, once lived in long bark houses. In the Mohawk Valley, south of Lake Ontario, anthropologists have unearthed the remains of a longhouse that was over 200 feet long. Longhouses were like apartment buildings with the living quarters built end to end.
We no longer live in Longhouses, so now the Haudenosaunee use shorter buildings. We still call these new buildings longhouses and use them as gathering places for traditional socials and various sacred ceremonies throughout the year. Non-traditional dances, such as square dancing, take place elsewhere.
Social Dancing
On a snowy evening in December 2005, I attended a social at Six Nations Polytechnic, east of Ohsweken, Ontario.
These Six Nations Iroquois events include social dancing and traditional foods, such as corn soup. In Iroquoian culture, singing, drumming, and the steady clatter of rattles always accompany Social Dances.
The people organized this social to seek support for young people who were protesting to stop the town of Caledonia from expanding into Six Nations territory. The youth asked everyone at the social to sign their petition and support their protest in Caledonia the next day.
As yet, no one has settled Six Nations land claims in the Haldimand housing tract. Six months later, in May 2006, non-Native opponents turned violent, but the Confederacy has kept its resolve.
