Her Tree Story - Including the Anderson, Davidson, Dorrie, Dougherty, Hausner, McKemie Whatley and Woodard Families.
Meet My Ancestors Including the Anderson, Davidson, Dorrie, Dougherty, Hausner and McKemie Families.
Beginning with the father of Agnes Kisten Anderson, Theodore E. S. Anderson of Ribe, Denmark.
Theodore married Martha Braun and they had the following children: Marie (b. 1889 in Denmark), Ritleau (b. 1891 in Denmark), Agnes (b. 1894 in New York City, New York) and Christian (b. 1897, New York City, New York).
Working back from Thomas Davidson (1900-1991), the son of Stephen Davidson (1854-1924 and Anna Gramma (1863-1920). The family lived in Giles County, Tennessee.
Associated names include Falls and Lavender. Place names include Minor Hill and Frankewing both of Giles County, Tennessee. Also touching Bedford County, Tennessee.
A millions years ago my grandmother took me to meet a cousin of my deceased grandfather. This cousin had spent decades researching my McKemie relatives. My grandmother was born a Davidson, but that didn't dampen her enthusiasm as she, my father and I dutifully followed Cousin James around south Alabama and Georgia, searching out McKemie landmarks. We stopped to have our picture taken beside a bridge named after one relative, oohed and aaahhhed over a long abandoned gas station of another, and did slow drive-bys of homes that had once sheltered my great grandparents.
The culmination of the trip came in the form of a visit to Wesley Chapel and Cemetery where generations of McKemies and connections have long found their final rest on land donated by our ancestors.
I was hooked. Years have passed and there are times when this pastime takes a back seat to life, but like most addicts, I keep coming back, spurred on to discover the next little tidbit of my family's ancestry.
Working back from Charles Dorrie (1891-1957), the son of Charles Louis Dorrie (1862-1935) and Elizabeth Dorothy Casper (1863-1943). Charles Louis Dorrie was born in Hannover, Germany and died in Yonkers, Westchester County, New York. He and wife, Elizabeth, had the following children: August, Charles Frederick, Frederick Louis, Louis August.
Working back from Joseph Patrick Dougherty (1900-1963) the husband of Anna Barbara Hausner (1903-1973).
Joseph Patrick was the son of Patrick Joseph Dougherty (1870-1935) and Delia Murphy (1870-1928). Patrick and Delia were both born in Ireland.
The pages linked here all lead to sub pages detailing what I know about my ancestors. Some might be less up-to-date than others. If something looks like it might connect to your line, but perhaps I haven't included enough information to cement that conclusion, feel free to message me. It's absolutely possible that I have additional information that hasn't found a home yet here on the website.
My intention is for each surname page to include a pseudo report on the family, any images I have that flesh out the details, and a link to the corresponding Wikitree family tree. If you haven't yet discovered Wikitree, let me be the first to encourage you to do so. Unlike Ancestry.com or other websites that house online lineages, Wikitree is just as it sounds. It is a merging of the concept of Wikipedia and a family tree in such a way as to facillitate a true collaborative effort. With that in mind, we must accept that there will be changes, erroneous information and other challenges not present when you have a static presentation of a family tree. But the challenges are far surpassed by the opportunities and ability to bridge gaps and break down brick walls, which are all fundamental benefits of participating with Wikitree.
Beginning with the father of Anna Barbara Hausner, William Joseph Hausner (1871-1943), of Bohemia (Czechelslovakia).
William Joseph Hausner married Antonie Jahoda (1873-1929), also of Bohemia.
Besides these surname pages, on the tabs at the top of the page, you will find a link to what I call my Toolbox. This area features websites, forms, tech, tricks and explanations for how to do things and how to do things easier as you conduct your genealogy research.
And then there is my blog, Her Tree Story (you know, herstory, with a genealogical twist!), where I pull this all together. Posts include when additions are made to any of these pages, when updates are made to relevant Wikitree lines, current projects, showcases interesting members of the family and whatever else tickles my fancy. Be sure to check it out and subscribe. I'd love that!
Beyond the blog, my "social media" includes Facebook, Twitter, Reddit and Pinterest. Each of these serve a slightly different function and none are as "current" as they should be. Primarily, Facebook is because it seems this is the current accepted mode of reaching a most people (replacing the old mailing lists and more). Posts made to the blog are reposted to Facebook. Twitter is primarily so I can follow a couple of genealogy events that seem to be, sadly, solely Twitter-based. Reddit is my new love, and is mostly reposts of blog entries and other assorted finds. Reddit is the modern forum or message board. Lastly, Pinterest will eventually be a lovely resource for images and such. It won't ever be my primary depository, but its so easy and widespread, it seems a shame to not utilize its easier functions.
Alice Roberta Whatley (1874-1914) married John James McKemie in 1902. Alice was the daughter of Jacob A. Whatley and Geneva Alice Saxon. They lived and are found in records in both Girard, Russell County, Alabama, and Columbus, Muscogee County, Georgia.
Working back from William Tully Woodard, the father of Cleo Woodard. William was married to Amanda Elizabeth Houston, both of Giles County, Tennessee.
Some associated names include Clark, Peebles, and Laughlin. Place names include Pulaski and Frankewing, both in Giles County, Tennessee, Lincoln County, Tennessee.
Semi-separate from this family research is the McKemie One Name Study. As I delved deeper into the research of my dad's line, I quickly came to recognize the name was just as uncommon as I'd grown up thinking. I truly was a special snowflake!
So I started collecting all occurrences of McKemie, figuring as time passed, I'd connect them to my personal line. With a name like this, we have to account for misspellings, too, so I collected McKemy, McKamy, McKamie, so on and so forth...until, as the years passed, I came to recognize that these weren't simple misspellings. Rather these were distinct lines, rebellious brothers and "late arrivals" and others with interesting stories I couldn't stop thinking about. With the advent of the Study, the DNA study and the participation and contributions of people from around the globe, we've linked some spellings onto the my "main", while others remain stubbornly independent. In time, I hope to have a better understanding of complex and interesting evolution of this name--or names!
Admittedly, my strongest focus. With ancestors in every major conflict, including both sides of the American Civil War and American Revolution, religious leaders and enterprising adventurers, the McKemie line is long and fascinating.
My particular line starts with John James McKemie (1873-1921) of Clay County, Georgia and his ancestors.
If anything here strikes your fancy, take a second and drop me an email or message through the blog. Genealogy is an entertaining trip through history, in your own ancestors' shoes. Make sure you enjoy the journey!

With a vision of creating an affordable family camper, Mr. John Serro, Irwin PA, founded the legendary Serro Scotty Company in 1957. The campers were manufactured by the Serro family until 1997.
John Serro with his wife Anne in 1957 with the first Serro Scotty prototype.
Beginning as a teardrop camper, Scotty trailers grew to include the 13' and 15' Sportsman and HiLander which became the backbones of the Scotty line-up. A Scotty trailer grew to be more than a RV but a lifestyle. Today, the vintage Scottys are treasures – lovingly restored special gems. They tell of a time of camp-outs gone by, laughs laughed, and stories told. New clubs have formed welcoming both vintage and modern Scotty campers.
The home of this lifestyle was the family-owned campground "Scottyland" where Scotty owners gathered, camped together and became family. Large clubs sprang out of this and their camping together became known as "Scotty Time". The original campground is still open in Rockwood, Pennsylvania and welcomes all campers.

Return of the Argonauts
Once again, the fabled Argo has sailed from the port of Volos (called Iolkos in ancient times). It is a replica of the ship that carried Jason and the Argonauts on their quest for the Golden Fleece (a golden ram's hide with magical powers). This event interested us because we visited Volos years ago – and even stayed at the Hotel Iason (Jason in Greek) on the waterfront. After more than 3,000 years, the Argonauts are not forgotten by the people of Volos.
Argo monument on the Volos waterfront near Hotel Iason
The original Argo sailed from Iolkos to the faraway kingdom of Colchis (in what is now Georgia) on the easternmost shore of the Euxine (Black Sea). It was here that Jason faced a series of challenges set by the local king, and ultimately stole the Golden Fleece with the help of Medea, the king's daughter (and also a witch). Medea gave a sleeping potion to a monster snake that guarded the fleece, allowing Jason an opportunity to snatch the prize and run away.
Medea diverts the guardian serpent, feeding it a sleeping potion, while Jason steals the Golden Fleece from nearby branch (4th century BCE)
The modern Argo is a 93.5-foot (28.5-meter) reconstruction of an ancient Greek penteconter, a wooden ship with 50 oarsmen. It was built in the ancient manner, with whole trees positioned in the hull, and more than 5,000 wooden pegs and wedges used to hold the ship's frame and planks in place. A big difference from the original ship: the replica was built wider to accommodate modern rowers – who are much larger than ancient Greek heroes.
Modern Argonauts prepare the Argo for its departure from Volos
The modern Argonauts (representing the 27 countries of the European Union) were preparing the Argo for its voyage when they ran into a serious problem. Turkey (which is not a member of the EU) said the Argo would not be allowed into the congested shipping lanes of the Bosporus. Since this is the only route from the Aegean into the Black Sea, changes had to be made.
Argonauts planned to row through the Bosporus, the only sea route from the Aegean to the Black Sea, but Turkish officials banned their ship
According to one version of the legend, while fleeing from the king of Colchis (who wanted to recover the Golden Fleece), Jason and the Argonauts sailed from the Black Sea up the Danube river and then (by some mysterious route) across the Balkan Peninsula to the Adriatic and Aegean seas.
Fans on the dock cheer as Argo departs for the long voyage
The organizers of the modern Argo expedition decided to take the return route, except in reverse – rowing and sailing from the Aegean to the Adriatic Sea, and anchoring at 23 cities, many of which are in modern-day Albania, Croatia, Slovenia and Italy. There will be 50 oarsmen and 22 on standby, rowing an exhausting 10 to 15 hours each day. The modern Argonauts will need all the rest they can get at the ports they visit along the way.

After traveling a total of 2,000 nautical miles during its voyage, the Argo will arrive at the port of Venice on August 11.

A fuzzy logic controller - WNC (Water Network Control) was developed for control of urban drainage systems. The objectives are to avoid accidents, flooding, pollutions through combined sewer overflows and excessive operation and maintenance costs. Fuzzy logic was proved to be a promising approach, flexible and easy accepted, because it includes the expert knowledge. Fuzzy control system proposed is robust and also easy to understand and modified. It offers to the operator the possibility to participate directly in the system control, combining the results of the modern optimization techniques with the experience and knowledge accumulated in time by experts. Thus, the control of urban sewer system can be well solved by implementing an intelligent control system, based on available information (fuzzy) and on expert's experience. An important feature of this fuzzy logic system is its capability to elaborate a control decision even in situations that were not considered in the design phase of the urban network.

Blacksburg, VA Real Estate
Why Blacksburg, VA, Is a Best Place to Live
Author and Blacksburg local Melody Warnick gets to the heart of what makes this tight-knit town so special.
By Melody Warnick on January 19, 2018 13:13 PM
Facebook.com/pg/Blacksburg
On a spring Saturday night, downtown Main Street in Blacksburg, Virginia, is thronged with people. Brightly lit restaurants buzz with patrons noshing on vegetarian at Gillie's or upscale farm-to-table fare at The Black Hen. Bars get raucous with live music. The Lyric, a 1929 movie theater restored to its former glory, wafts the scent of popcorn onto College Avenue. It's a lower-wattage version of the crazy energy that Blacksburg generates on fall football weekends, when 66,000 rabid fans pour into Virginia Tech's Lane Stadium.
A post shared by Virginia Tech (@virginia.tech) on Dec 27, 2016 at 8:41pm PST
With all that, you'd be forgiven for struggling to believe that Blacksburg is actually a small town, with a population of 43,000 —more than half of whom are students at Virginia Tech. But the pace of the town always turns peaceful again on weekdays, when deer (and sometimes black bears) wander through local yards.
Blacksburg's two identities — the Southern country town 40 minutes from the nearest mid-size city, Roanoke, and the educated, sophisticated would-be city that's centered on Virginia Tech's campus — have a Clark Kent/Superman thing going on. But the alter egos work out well for residents who want easy livability and serious leisure, as evidenced by Blacksburg's appearance on our Top 100 Best Places to Live list.
A post shared by Virginia Tech (@virginia.tech) on Mar 2, 2017 at 4:13am PST
For instance, the town boasts well-ranked schools, including a brand-new, multi-million-dollar high school, that you can get to with only a smidgen of city-style traffic. And you don't have to leave behind the serene mountain views or the access to hiking, biking, and horse trails to get yourself a ticket to catch a world-class musician like Yo-Yo Ma performing at the recently built Moss Arts Center on the Virginia Tech campus.
A post shared by Melody Warnick (@melodywarnick) on Feb 14, 2017 at 3:02pm PST
According to Mayor Leslie Hager-Smith, there's "an 'enoughness' that permeates town culture. We are a product of our geography as much as our history. We occupy our small patch of Appalachia with gratitude for what we have and not much concern for what we don't have. This is what makes me proud — in an age when people are hungry for authenticity, Blacksburg has enough to share."
That authenticity is both cultivated and guarded. A decade ago, residents successfully defeated a proposal to build a Walmart in town, fearful of how a big-box store would affect small, independent businesses. Locals tend to be civically engaged and vocal about the kind of place they want to see.
A post shared by Virginia Tech (@virginia.tech) on Feb 6, 2017 at 1:34pm PST
A recent meeting at the recreation center to launch a downtown master planning project was standing room only. As Hager-Smith explains, "Blacksburg citizens are highly engaged. Citizens staff our town committees, they participate in writing our Comprehensive Plan, they are vocal about bikeways, dark skies, sidewalks, and open spaces. Our Community Relations office is award-winning for the many ways it reaches out to citizens — and the citizens would not have it any other way."
Growth here is inevitable: Virginia Tech has announced plans to expand its student body, and businesses in its Corporate Research Center, including a wealth of technology firms, are expanding. But the growth is carefully shepherded, so new housing, like the urban-style downtown apartment building The Brownstone, blend into their surroundings and offer needed amenities. And no matter what, there's always Blacksburg's down-to-earth outdoorsiness to fall back on. The Appalachian Trail passes just a few miles beyond the town borders, and the nearby New River offers a summer's worth of kayaking, canoeing and tubing.
A post shared by Hahn Garden at Virginia Tech (@vthahngarden) on Nov 9, 2017 at 7:40am PST
In other words, Clark Kent serenity and Superman sophistication, right here in Blacksburg.

Why I Stayed: 10 College Grads on Why They Made Their College Town Home
From job opportunities to social circles to breakfast tacos, here's what inspired people to settle down in their college towns.


Once again we busted out the grill. Are you surprised? When I saw these Santa Fe Burgers on Sargento's website, I knew I needed to make them asap. Ground beef stuffed with our favorite snack of chips and salsa? Yes, please!
This was my first experience cooking burgers on our new grill. Ben is usually king of the burgers in this household, but he received a phone call right when I was finished shaping the patties and I just couldn't wait any longer to eat. Since he already had the coals burning for half an hour, I knew I could just slap those patties on and get them started. Little did I know that his phone call would last a while and I would end up seeing those burgers to their finish. I must say, I did a great job for my first time. 😉 Ben was even talking about these burgers again yesterday!
Even though we had fairly high expectations, I think these burgers still took us both by surprise with how good they really were. The salsa kept the insides moist while the outside was nice and crispy. And, served with another spoonful of salsa and melted cheese on top, you really can't beat it. Don't forget to serve them up on the perfect homemade burger buns.
In a medium bowl, combine the beef, 1 cup of cheese, 1/4 cup salsa, tortilla chips, green onions, chili powder and garlic salt. Shape into 3-4 patties. Cook on the preheated grill for about 5 minutes on each side, or until cook through as desired. Place on buns and top with additional cheese and salsa. Serve with lettuce and tomato slices.
Yum! Can't wait to get back to the states and give this a try!
Wow your burger buns look world's better than mine. I'm going to keep trying though, and these burgers give me an excuse to do so!
I just made something eerily similar! YUM!
Great photo, and these sound so delicious! Definitely trying them.
Ate these tonight…my husband immediately announced he wanted to have them tomorrow too. Ding! thanks for the recipe!!
We had these burgers for dinner tonight. My husband took the first bite and said, "Oh, you are going to love these," and I did (as did he)! I made the hamburger buns, too. They are amazing! Thank you!

Rufus Festus (auch Sextus Ruffus; † 380) war ein spätantiker Geschichtsschreiber.

Festus bekleidete unter Kaiser Valens (363–378) das Amt des  und erlangte wohl den Rang eines  und wurde mithin Senator. Er verfasste eine Kurzdarstellung der römischen Geschichte (i) von den sagenhaften Anfängen der Stadt bis in die 360er Jahre. Festus, der kein Christ war, scheint (wie zuvor Eutropius) von Kaiser Valens mit der Abfassung des nur dreißig Kapitel zählenden Werkes beauftragt worden zu sein. Er schrieb ein sehr einfaches, aber recht gutes Latein. Es wird angenommen, dass ihm unter anderem die Enmannsche Kaisergeschichte als Quelle gedient hat.

Obwohl das kurze Werk einige wichtige Informationen enthält und insgesamt als etwas zuverlässiger gilt als das wenig früher entstandene ähnliche, aber sprachlich weitaus anspruchsvollere Werk des Aurelius Victor, und obwohl es insbesondere der populären, von einem anonymen Autor stammenden Epitome de Caesaribus vorzuziehen ist, wird es von der althistorischen Forschung bislang eher stiefmütterlich behandelt.

A Georgia Sharecropper's Story of Forced Labor ca. 1900
At the turn of the century the group of black women most subject to sexual exploitation and abuse were those who lived under the system of quasi-slavery known as "peonage."Under contract labor laws, which existed in almost every southern state, a laborer who signed a contract and then quit his or her job could be arrested. The horrors of this system of forced labor (as well as the equally horrific system of convict labor) are detailed in this stark, turn-of-the-century personal account of life u

Where does the utopian impulse in politics originate, and does it have a future? John Gray argues that though they often claimed to be rooted in a scientific analysis of history and society the revolutionary political movements of the past were informed by a utopian vision which derives from religion. Is the age of secular utopianism over, and if so how will relig
Garibaldi: the patriot as global hero
The Italian revolutionary leader Giuseppe Garibaldi was not only worshipped as national hero in his country but he was also a hugely popular global figure in his lifetime - an estimated 500,000 people turned out to greet him on his arrival in London in 1864. The lecture, which marks the bicentenary of Garibaldi's birth, examines the charismatic leader's emergence as global symbol in the context of nineteenth-century globalization processes, developments in mass media, and political conflicts.

Psychology as Social Science
This talk considers what it means to approach psychology as a 'social' science in a specific sense - that is to say it sketches out an approach to the analysis of the part that psychology - its languages, techniques, forms of expertise, self-technologies - played across the twentieth century in the development of social-welfare rationalities and technologies of government.

An Open Economy - the Progressive Response to Global Change
Britain has long realised the best way to progress is to look outward rather than retreat inwards. In previous centuries, progressives responded to great social and economic change by moving to create an open society. In this lecture, Business and Enterprise Secretary, John Hutton will argue that the right progressive response to the scale and pace of global change facing Britain this century is to break down the remaining barriers that can hold people back by creating a truly open economy.
The China Challenge as Myth and Reality
Few countries have experienced changes as dramatic as did China in the past century - and the past quarter century in particular. From a "revolutionary country" to a "status quo power," and from an "outsider" to an "insider" of the existing international system, the realities of the grand transformation in China's state, society and international outlook have often been obscured by all kinds of myths. For the purpose of highlighting the realities and deconstructing the myths, Professor Chen disc

Your visit will also include a comprehensive exam. During your exam, Dr. Rynar will look for periodontal disease, tooth decay, and TMJ dysfunction, in addition to measuring for bone loss or loose teeth. We can also conduct an oral cancer screening.
We promise to be as gentle as possible. Most periodontal exams are completed with little to no discomfort.
We will need a current set of x-rays to complete your periodontal diagnosis. If your referring dentist has taken x-rays, you may request that they be forwarded to us.
Because all patients are different, we must complete your exam before determining the fee for care. It can vary depending on your needs and the treatment plan we recommend. We can typically approximate a fee at your initial visit, but on occasion, some initial treatment or further diagnostics may need to be completed before the final cost can be established.
Your insurance policy may cover some of the costs, so please bring all benefit information with you. We are happy to submit a claim to predetermine your insurance benefits.
Not every patient needs periodontal surgery. If treated early, gum disease can be controlled non-surgically. Our philosophy is to provide the most conservative treatment possible for each patient that will provide the most sustainable result.
Recent advances in periodontal therapy have made it possible for us to successfully treat most teeth.
What if I avoid care?
Periodontal disease is a progressive, painless infection. Putting off care can cause further bone loss and lead to more expensive treatment later. If your teeth are lost, dentures are never as effective as your own teeth.

Nuts for the Nets
Fred Harper
Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov (with, clockwise from top right, rap icon Jay-Z, borough booster Marty Markowitz, arena developer Bruce Ratner and player Deron Williams) has doubled the value of a team he bought only two years ago.
CN8124185.MP3
This Week in Crain's: Aug. 5, 2012
In February, the owner of the Brooklyn Nets, Mikhail Prokhorov, appeared on a Russian television comedy show called Spotlight Paris Hilton, and offered a musical tribute to his co-owner, hip-hop star Jay-Z.
"Mr. Jay-Z, this rap is for you," went the English portion of the lyrics. "Mr. Jay-Z, this is the first presentation/of real rap music from Russian Federation. Mr. Jay-Z, you are not alone/Mikhail Prokhorov on the microphone."According to Mr. Prokhorov, a reprise is in the works, but this time in downtown Brooklyn, where Jay-Z will open the $1 billion Barclays Center with a series of sold-out concerts this fall. "Yes, I will rap at his concert," Mr. Prokhorov informed Crain's via email. "I am in rehearsals now 10 hours a day and plan to demand joint billing."The metal magnate with a sense of humor and the rap mogul from Brooklyn are an unlikely pairing. One served in the Soviet military, joined the Communist Party, became a businessman worth as much as $25 billion and ran for president; the other rose from Bedford-Stuyvesant's Marcy Houses to become a global hip-hop icon worth an estimated $460 million.Buoyed by the basketball team's move to Brooklyn from New Jersey, the duo have turned the Nets from a laughingstock that played to empty arenas and hemorrhaged cash into a franchise expected to sell out nightly and increase revenue by more than $50 million this season. Sponsorships are soaring, merchandise is flying off the shelves and the once-shunned Nets have become a desired destination for NBA stars.Mr. Prokhorov's free spending—he committed about $340 million to player salaries last month alone—and his move to tap Jay-Z's star power have made the Nets the talk of the league. If that chatter translates to wins, the Nets could become the NBA's hottest story of the year."The Nets were the Sacramento Kings of the East Coast," said Marc Ganis, president of SportsCorp Ltd. "They had no reputation, they had no credibility, they had no brand. What Prokhorov is doing along with Jay-Z is building a brand. That brand is going to have significant value as time goes on. They're now on a very steep trajectory upwards."When Mr. Prokhorov, 47, bought a majority stake in the Nets in 2010, he predicted that the team, which had lost nearly $300 million in the previous four years, would win a title and be worth $1 billion by 2015.
Banking on Jay-Z
On his first trip to the U.S. after taking over a team that ranked among the league's lowest revenue producers and attracted among the fewest fans, he swung by Jay-Z's 40/40 Club in Manhattan. He met with Jay-Z, whose given name is Shawn Carter, for more than an hour, according to the blog NetsDaily.
"We discussed the vision for the Brooklyn Nets and how he is really the face and the heart of Brooklyn," the owner said. "His understanding is essential to what we're doing."Mr. Prokhorov added that he and Jay-Z, 42, are "both guys who have had to work their way up, him from the projects, me from the Soviet system, and we do relate on that level." Jay-Z declined to comment.Under the Russian owner, the music star has become more than the Nets' fan in chief. Ever since Mr. Prokhorov spent $260 million (including $60 million to cover operating losses while the Nets finished up in New Jersey) for an 80% share of the team, 45% of the Barclays Center and an option to buy 20% of the overall Atlantic Yards project, he has made Jay-Z the centerpiece of his plan to turn the Nets into a global property. Brooklyn, with its diverse population, is the "natural place for a global team to be based," he said."Jay-Z, of course, is an extraordinarily powerful calling card for Brooklyn and for our brand," Mr. Prokhorov said. "He has that international name that we want."Of late, Jay-Z has done everything short of taking tickets. He tried to recruit superstars LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony to the team; he became a director of the company that owns the Barclays Center; his 40/40 Club will have a location at the arena; he created the team's new logo and helped design high-end arena suites; an ad firm he co-owns devised the inaugural Brooklyn Nets campaign, which features the phrase "Hello Brooklyn," the title of a Jay-Z song; his choreographer is working with the Nets dance team; and the bodyguard for his wife, Beyoncé, was named the Nets' director of security.The hometown star's mega-presence belies the fact that his stake in the team was likely diluted to less than a third of 1% with Mr. Prokhorov's arrival, NetsDaily said."When [former majority owner] Bruce Ratner approached Jay-Z about being an investor in the team and arena, it was to provide us street credibility in Brooklyn, but obviously over the years it's grown well beyond that," said Nets Chief Executive Brett Yormark. "We look at Jay as an incredible icon, a tastemaker in many respects, and we're tapping into that resource on a daily basis."The Nets are also tapping into Mr. Prokhorov's wallet. He's handing out money like the Yankees, hoping the Nets start with a bang.The owner said he is "willing to spend the money to build a championship team. Not a playoff team, but a championship team." He professes no concern that his team must pay a luxury tax, estimated at $12 million by ShamSports.com, after his summertime shopping spree pushed payroll to nearly $82 million."I am only interested in what will bring us a championship team," he said. "That is the sole criterion."He approved a trade with the Atlanta Hawks for Joe Johnson and his hitherto untradable contract, which still has $89 million on it. That deal—and a $98 million offer—helped persuade star point guard Deron Williams to re-sign for five years. Mr. Prokhorov's No. 2, Dmitry Razumov, worked 24 straight hours to help seal the Williams deal, NetsDaily reported. Center Brook Lopez got a $60 million, four-year extension. Forwards Gerald Wallace and Kris Hum-phries signed for a combined $64 million, by many accounts more than they were worth. "There are going to be celebrities sitting courtside, and the Nets are going to be talked about on Page Six of the New York Post," consultant Mr. Ganis said. "But most impressive to people around the NBA was that the only team [Orlando Magic center] Dwight Howard wanted to be traded to was the Nets. Nobody could have predicted that a couple of years ago. It speaks volumes to the perception players have about the Nets, from a graveyard of a team to now the most attractive of any team in the league."Does that "most attractive" status mean Mr. Prokhorov's idea that the Nets would be worth $1 billion by 2015 might not be so far-fetched? It's a stretch to think the Nets could become more valuable than the Knicks, worth $780 million at last count, according to Forbes (see chart, Page 13). But Mr. Prokhorov believes his investment is "worth at least double already."
Soaring value
It could increase next month. Mr. Prokhorov lent the partnership that runs the Barclays Center, which is led by Forest City Ratner, $77 million to cover arena infrastructure costs. According to NetsDaily, if the loan isn't repaid in September—$103 million, including interest—Mr. Prokhorov can exercise an option to take control of 80% of the arena. A spokesman for Forest City and its CEO, Bruce Ratner, said "the intention is to repay the loan by maturity."
Mr. Prokhorov said no decision on how to handle that has been made, but Mr. Ratner will keep the arena. "Bruce has invested tons of money and energy into this. We are certain he will continue to be a major shareholder and managing partner for the arena," Mr. Prokhorov said. "We truly enjoyed the partnership and are happy with our current role."Even if he doesn't get a bigger piece of Barclays, Mr. Prokhorov appears to have made a sound investment. The New Orleans Hornets were sold in June for $338 million, and the Memphis Grizzlies are reportedly under contract to be sold for about $350 million. Both teams are in tiny markets, and neither sale included a stake in an arena. Forbes had the Nets valued at $357 million before the Brooklyn move"Certainly a number north of $600 million is very doable by 2015, if they haven't achieved it already," Mr. Ganis said.The Nets are locked into their television contract with the YES Network through the 2031-32 season, so there won't be a TV bonanza like the one that pushed Forbes' estimate of the Los Angeles Lakers' value up to $900 million.But the buzz surrounding the move to Brooklyn has led to soaring sponsorship deals and ticket sales. The Nets have sold nearly 10,000 full-season tickets, considered a benchmark for getting to a sellout every night, Mr. Yormark said. About 80% of the arena's 100 luxury suites have been sold, including most of the premium ones, which go for $550,000.Three months before the season begins, the team has already booked twice the sponsorship revenue of last season, snagging Calvin Klein, Stolichnaya, American Express and Ticketmaster, among others. While the New Jersey Nets sold barely any merchandise, Brooklyn Nets gear is hot.Since launching the new branding on April 30, the Nets have surged to seventh from 24th on the list of top-selling teams at the NBA Store in Manhattan and on NBA-Store.com. The first two days that Brooklyn Nets merchandise was available, total sales from the NBA Store, NBAStore.com and BrooklynNets.com were 10 times that of a typical year when the team was in New Jersey. And that was without any sales of jerseys, which have yet to be rolled out (an unveiling at one of the Jay-Z concerts in late September is likely).But now comes the hard part for a team that has bumbled through five straight losing seasons: winning. "Nothing makes you grow faster than success on the field of play," said Chris Lencheski, president of Philadelphia-based Front Row Marketing Services. "They have a new arena, a new brand. Now let's see what they do on the court."All of Jay-Z's pizzazz and Mr. Prokhorov's money won't mean much if the team doesn't improve markedly on its 22-44 record last year."We've become relevant," Mr. Yormark said. "We need to sustain that. That, to me, is the goal."

In their 2010 Annual Report for Religious Freedom, The United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), an independent government body, designated North Korea as "A Country of Particular Concern." Furthermore, "Open Doors", an international Christian missionary group, also ranked North Korea in the top 50 countries in which the worst Christian persecution exists when presenting its "2010 World Watch List." The list claimed that North Korea currently held 40,000 to 60,000 people in labor camps due to their religious beliefs.
While the North Korean government stresses that it does not allow any kind of religious persecution, governments and human rights groups all over the world assert that the religious oppression in North Korea is severe.
The reality of North Korea's religious persecution has been told by the North Korean human rights groups.
Minority Rights Group (MRG), a British human rights group, reported that in August of last year 23 underground Christians were arrested in Pyongsung, South Pyongan province. Three were executed.
They also emphasized that in March and June of 2009, underground church adherents like Hyun-Ok and Suh Geum-Ok were either publicly executed or went missing for illicit activities such as distributing bibles.
Even amid such strong oppression, North Koreans' faith in religion has not abated easily. MRG also stated that there are reported to be 12,000 Christian and 10,000 Buddhist devotees in North Korea and that the actual number of devotees may be significantly higher.
Doh Hee-Yun, representative of "Happy Unification," also stated that, "After the 1998 food shortage, North Korean defectors stayed in China with the help of religious groups, naturally encountering religion there. Since these defectors have returned voluntarily or have been forcibly deported, unofficial religious activity has increased."


My father died two weeks ago after a long battle with cancer. I've thought of reading your book for ages – and finally picked it up this afternoon while back at my parent's house to help my mother. I ended up reading it in one sitting. Thank you for reminding me why I'm saying kaddish! Kol ha kavod.
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your father. I am glad to hear that my book was something of a comfort. This is such a difficult time and having a prayer like kaddish is a great companion. I hope sweet memories of your father together with the love of family and friends will help sustain you.
So began my year of living kaddish.
My year has been very different from Goldman's, and yet not so different. The mechanics of our observance is different – he is Orthodox and felt required to say kaddish three times daily. My liberal tradition says once a day is enough. Goldman talks in the book about frantic searches to find a minyan three times a day. I was not so panicked, partly because I was able to stay home during most of the year and when I did travel, I was able to arrange to find a synagogue beforehand. I'm both surprised and a bit amazed to say I made a minyan once a day almost every day for the whole year.
At first it was a daunting task and I admit I did it as much out of a sense of obligation as any other reason. Truth be told, it is an obligation for an oldest son to say kaddish for a parent, at least in a halachic sense. But modern sensibilities permeate the Jewish world and most American Jews might say kaddish through shiva (7 days), maybe some even through sh'loshim (30 days). I felt the need to do the 'whole magillah.' And it was not easy.
There was many a day I just couldn't imagine doing this for a year. The precept that got me through is the 12-Step notion of one day at a time. I didn't have to worry about doing it tomorrow, only today. And so, my days took on the routine of leaving the office just after 5pm to make mincha at 5:45pm. And the year passed.
Today I will lead mincha and ma'ariv and say kaddish for the last time as a part of the formal mourning period. Did it help? Absolutely. While I wasn't able to focus on my grief and memories every day, in retrospect, I did for most of the days. Having stopped the daily trip to synagogue after 11 months, I've already re-adapted my routine. Funny, I don't have any extra time in my life – it's just filled with other things. As I think about today's last kaddish I'm almost melancholy and my emotions are mixed. I miss my dad, and this is the last piece of letting go. Zichronah livrachah, his memory is a blessing.

Politics: It was a wonderful Christmas morning, but we didn't get the pony
This Tuesday, a breathtaking number of Democrat politicians were shown to the door by the American people, whose initial cautious support of President Obama's policies has become--in only two years--doubt, then dismay, and finally revulsion (see, for example, this poll).
At least six senators, 61 representatives and seven governors from the President's party are now standing on the unemployment line. "We know that it was the biggest switch in House seats in a midterm in more than 70 years and the biggest swing in a Congressional election since 1948," one political maven told PBS.
A satisfying purge; a modern-day equivalent of the defenestration of Prague (a defenestration is when annoying public officials are shown, not to the door, but to the window). And comforting evidence that we as a people have not lost all our values, intelligence and common sense.
But it's still hard not to feel sadness at the political survival of Harry Reid, one of the more repellent figures in our public life. As one example of his charms, Senator Reid joked in 2008 that in the summertime in Washington, "you could literally smell the tourists coming into the Capitol." And as a race-baiter he has no equal: "I don't know how anyone of Hispanic heritage could be a Republican," he mused in August. "Do I need to say more?"
Apparently he does, because he never stops talking and never stops offending (go here for a good recap of his ugliest gaffes). But most importantly, Reid played a major role in ramrodding Obamacare through Congress. The damage caused by that legislation is already beginning to be felt--AARP, for example, which lobbied for passage of the bill, is now citing it as one reason it is raising insurance rates for its own employees.
The most recent polls just before the election showed Reid's opponent, Sharron Angle, leading by one to four percentage points--yet Reid won the election by 5.6 points. Does anyone believe he won it legitimately? We've seen this trick so many times--races that a Democrat is on the road to losing suddenly being won when bushels of votes come in from urban areas, votes that can't be checked or no one dares try to check. No wonder the Democrats, and their allies in the judiciary, are so set against laws that would require voters to produce ID or proof of citizenship (look here for a particularly galling recent example).
Here in New York, we gave the Democrats yet another chance to run the state, much like Charlie Brown giving Lucy another chance to hold the football. It's true that the Republican candidate for governor, Carl Paladino, with his raw temper and undisciplined message, was a flawed candidate--while the Democrat, Andrew Cuomo, laid low and avoided controversy. But how does that explain the results of the Attorney General race? The New York Post summed it up this way: "Staten Island's squeaky-clean DA, Dan Donovan, lost the AG race to utterly compromised Albany insider Eric Schneiderman."
And here's what we can expect from Schneiderman, the Post tells us: "The proudly liberal Manhattan state senator and attorney said he will use his office to root out discrimination...promoting marriage equality, and prosecuting wage inequality against women in the workplace." In a state where middle-class families are on the ropes, he will use his office to push for damaging change to the millennia-old institution of marriage (in liberal-speak, "marriage equality" refers to what some call "gay marriage"). And in a state which businesses are fleeing south or west as fast as they can find office space to rent, he will harass business with affirmative-action lawsuits or threats of same.
So this Election Day, while indeed a happy occasion, left us--especially we New Yorkers--with quite a bit still to be desired. But slow and steady wins the race, or some cliche like that. Wait 'till 2012, when we really clean house.
By the way, one of the best things about Election Day was the way the wonderful congresswoman from Minnesota, Michele Bachmann, put Chris Matthews in his place on live TV. Matthews famously said once that he felt a thrill going up his leg when he heard President Obama speak. This time, he thought he'd have some fun and slap Congresswoman Bachmann around--after all, isn't that what liberals get to do to conservatives on TV? By the time the conversation had ended, he was sorry it had started. Check it out here.
There's such irony in the fact that it is liberals who make the biggest noise about being for women's rights--yet their vision of women's rights is so shallow and, in many ways, so destructive. But it is conservative women who are taking the lead, in many cases, in putting the country back on track.

As governor Yahaya Bello of kogi state marks his three years in office, the state chapter of Nigeria Medical Association ( NMA) has urged him to urgently deploy programmes that will discourage medical Doctors in the state civil service from resigning their appointments to seeking greener pastures across the states and abroad.
The NMA Chairman , Dr. Kabir Zubair in a statement made available to Journalists on Monday inLokoja, felicitate with the government and people of the state on the three years of APC led administration in the state .
The Chairman added that the Organisation equally congratulated the Deputy Governor, the SSG, Chief of Staff, Commissioner for Health, Special Adviser on Health Matters and the entire cabinet members for their support for the wellbeing of the health workers in the state.
It would be recalled that governor Yahaya Bello was sworn-in as the fourth civilian governor of Kogi State by the Chief Judge, Justice Nasir Ajanah on January 27, 2016.
Zubair commended the New Direction Government led by Bello for some postive steps the government had taken in repositioning the health sector in the state.
The chairman, however, urged the state government to take deliberate steps to reverse the 'current internal drift' of doctors and other health care workers from the Kogi State Civil Service.
According to him " under this administration a total of 88 doctors have left the state Civil Service; 79 previously, plus another nine who had succeeded in securing new employment outside the state .
"It is a known fact that doctors and other health care workers remained the drivers of health care delivery anywhere in the world.
"Steps such as the payment of outstanding salary arrears of doctors and other health care workers, implementation of the corrected CONMESS, promotion and annual step increment among others, are needed to reverse this unfortunate trend.
"As you commence your fourth year in office, the NMA as the custodian of the health of the people is ready and willing to partner with your government to right the wrong in the Kogi State health sector," Zubair said.

The secret of successful viral marketing and advertising campaigns
By Expert commentator 18 Dec, 2020
Best practice advice
Viral marketing is not an exact science. It's not the case that if you want to create a viral marketing campaign you simply have to think about it, plan it, and then you have it. If only it was that simple
Viral marketing has grown in popularity for consumers seeking entertainment and content creators finding new ways to reach their customers.
Chances are that every CEO out there would like to have a viral marketing campaign for their company. Why? Because it is one of the most effective types of marketing. You don't have to spend large budgets on creating ads or getting them out there. The focus here is on great content.
What is viral marketing?
Viral marketing - or word of mouth marketing, as it was known before the technology era - has been existing for decades, but only during the past few years, since the appearance of social media networks, has it been known as viral marketing.
Need a plan to create a winning marketing strategy?
Get started today using a tried and tested step-by-step process to optimize your marketing.
According to Investopedia, viral marketing "seeks to spread information about a product or service from person to person by word of mouth or sharing via the internet or email."
The word of mouth aspect in viral marketing is crucial - viral content inspires consumers to share your marketing message with their friends, family and networks to increase your reach through a trust-worthy medium.
Memorization vs emotions. Regular vs viral campaigns.
Whenever you are advertising certain products or services, you are making use of one of the two aspects of humankind:
Colt Charlton, a chief marketing officer, says: "The first aspect is taken into consideration when using regular advertising. For example, in the marketing industry, there's a rule called the Rule of Seven. It was defined in the 1930s and it's still valid today. According to it, a customer will need to see a message seven times before acting on it. To achieve this, you will have to pump lots of cash into ads in order to get to your message to customers seven times."
Content that goes viral elicits an emotional response in people. This causes them to share the content and it spreads rapidly. When people develop strong feelings around a message, the impulse to share becomes irresistible. Marketers need to have a powerful message that triggers people to want to share, almost without thinking about doing so.
When people are surprised by the unexpected, they are more likely to share. Challenge their assumptions, give them a startling fact, make a bold assertion or provide an innovative new way of doing something. If you can make people burst into spontaneous laughter, the first thing they'll want to do is share your content.
If you identify the key issues that interest your audience, you will have a better idea on how to create that emotional response. If content is to go viral, it can't just be okay. It has to push the envelope and deliver a message worth sharing.

What type of emotions are you looking to tap into?
Emotion-based advertising makes the customer act upon the message faster than usual. According to research done by SEMrush the 10,000 most shared articles on the web generated the following emotions:
Awe - 25%
Laughter - 17%
Amusement - 15%
Joy - 14%
Anger - 6%
Empathy - 6%
In this instance, the positive emotions, such as awe, laughter, amusement, and joy, are the ones that generate the most viral campaigns.
Further research by the Froniers in Psychology journal in September 2020 concluded that measuring consumers' unconscious emotional responses to advertising content might be key to a fuller understanding of consumer behaviour - a victory for the psychology of marketing.
A campaign that went viral because it connected to emotion was the Dove Real Beauty Sketches. The short film was viewed more than 114 million times in the first month.
The video showed a forensic sketch artist drawing two portraits of women. One was based on a description given by the women themselves and the other on how they were perceived by strangers. The artist did not look at the women and they weren't aware of the nature of the experiment. Placing the portraits side by side revealed that strangers saw the women as more attractive than they saw themselves. The message conveyed was "You are more beautiful than you think." Empowerment can be a very powerful tool. Watching the Dove film was uplifting and evoked emotions of joy and confidence in women.

Are you using the right characters for your campaign?
Taking the presented aspects as a premise for your next viral campaign, have you thought about the characters you'll include?
According to Gabriel Elliana, a marketing specialist: "It's very important to pick a character that will generate more than one of these feelings. For example, cats tend to go viral because they are both fun and joyful, but they also add a dash of affection to the marketing campaigns. I think there is not a single cat video below the average engagement rate."
You should choose your next campaign's characters according to the type of users you are targeting and their typologies.
You could use cats as the main characters of your campaign if you are looking to advertise pillows or more refined products. Instead, if you are selling hammers, grinders or even cranes, chances are your possible customers will laugh about your marketing campaign. You will have an amusing marketing campaign, but it's not the right amusement.
An example of an amusing character the target audience loves is the Dos Equis man. This fictional character drinks Dos Equis beer and stars in the company's viral commercials. The commercials are part comedy skit and part advertisement, targeting the beer-drinking audience in an engaging, humorous way.
Fans around the world helped to spread the ads and people even dress up as the Dos Equis man for Halloween. This is the man who mosquitoes refuse to bite because they respect him too much and has a week dedicated to him by sharks.

Final thoughts on viral marketing for your next campaign
Make sure you always keep an eye on your competition and their upcoming events, a product launch, a merger, you name it. Then, add a dash of real-time marketing to these events and a dose of fun. It will make your campaign stand out of the crowd.
Viral marketing campaigns are very sought after. Every marketing specialist, manager or CEO would like to launch viral marketing campaigns for his company. Even so, as we said, viral marketing is not an exact science.
You might make a top-notch campaign, but didn't get the timing right and end up unsuccessful. You might make an average campaign and launch it at the right time and get lots of engagement and visibility for your company. Next time you want a successful viral marketing campaign, keep these tips in mind.

Introducing TSA Projects and TSA Advisory
Today we are pleased to announce the launch of two service lines under two new brands: TSA Projects and TSA Advisory. This exciting new endeavour will see TSA's existing project management service operate under the new TSA Projects brand. The TSA Projects brand will operate alongside the existing TSA Advisory brand – a division of experienced subject matter experts who deliver specialist creative solutions to complex infrastructure challenges.
TSA Projects continues to partner with our clients providing the full suite of project management services to help bring impactful projects to life. The team works across the project lifecycle with the right team, skills and experience to deliver a positive community impact.
In April 2020, in the middle of the COVID outbreak, TSA soft-launched the TSA Advisory brand after the acquisition of advisory firm Calcutta. Over the last year, TSA both refined and expanded this offering by acquiring the Capital Projects Advisory (CPA) team from Advisian. The breadth and depth of experience assembled through the combination of these businesses has positioned TSA Advisory as the premier advisory group in capital projects and infrastructure services in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.
Now, TSA is a fast-growing and independent project consulting business with over 530 staff across Australia, New Zealand and Malaysia. While TSA's new brands differentiate our expanded service offering, the divisions will work side-by-side wherever needed to deliver TSA's full value proposition.
Paul Griffiths will lead TSA Advisory working closely with regionally based Advisory teams throughout APAC. The TSA Projects teams will continue to be led regionally. Paul joined TSA's Melbourne office with the CPA acquisition from Advisian and brings extensive local and international experience to the TSA Advisory business. Paul says, "I am delighted to lead this dynamic team and continue TSA's mission – to deliver projects of significance leaving a positive legacy for those who live in the communities we help create."
TSA's CEO, Andrew Wilson, says, "We are reinforcing our position as an independent global project consultancy. In doing so, we are reinventing project consulting such that our expanded service offering, delivered under the TSA Projects and TSA Advisory brands can be even more responsive to our client's needs.

CONKO: How can Obamacare be truly fixed?
Hey look, you've done nothing wrong.
By - The Washington Times - Thursday, April 1, 2010
ANALYSIS/OPINION:
President Obama may have added his signature to the health care legislation last week, but Republican leaders have decided they won't go gently into that good night. At least 13 state attorneys general are pursuing legal action, while others are laying the groundwork for legislative overrides if the GOP makes major gains in the November elections.
Still, it will take more than minor fixes to reverse the damage Obamacare will do to America's health care system. Returning to last year's status quo won't be enough, and it's unlikely that genuine reform can be implemented before Republicans control both houses of Congress and the White House. Never- theless, Republicans should commit to a major overhaul that will cure the system's endemic flaws and spend the run-up to Election Day convincing the American public that it's the right thing to do. That, of course, requires understanding the root causes of our current health care crisis.
Much has been written about Obamacare's "takeover" of American health care. But the sad truth is that with Medicare, Medicaid, the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) and other programs, the federal and state governments already were in direct control of close to half of all the health care dollars spent each year. And let us not forget that private health insurance has been regulated heavily by state and federal laws governing who must be covered and how. In a very meaningful sense, government took over health care long ago.

Despite this government control, what kept American health care alive was the residue of market processes that enabled some semblance of choice, price signals, adaptability and - perhaps most important - physician responsiveness to patients' needs. Obamacare's great tragedy is not simply that it will exert more control over the provision of health insurance and medical services but that by doing so, it takes us further into a future in which the relationship between physician and patient will be severed irreparably.
Most of the problems in America's health care system - high and rising prices, lack of consistent and reliable access for millions, rampant cost shifting and an inability to distinguish between effective and ineffective services or between high and low quality, to name just a few - stem not from some supposed market failure but primarily from existing government interventions in the market for health care and health insurance.
The runaway entitlement spending of Medicare and Medicaid is bad enough. Worse still are the many government regulations on private-sector health programs that distort incentives and hide most of the costs within the system - what my former colleague Tom Miller, now at the American Enterprise Institute, once described as trying to have socialism's benefits without socialism's (overt) costs.
Entitlement programs and a tax system that forces Americans into employer-provided health insurance shield consumers from the true cost of their care. To promote affordable coverage, governments implemented benefit mandates, guaranteed coverage, and community rating laws that force healthy individuals to subsidize those with higher health care costs. But each of these have led, predictably, to spiraling health inflation and still more uninsured Americans.
Instead of fixing these problems, Obamacare simply doubles down on the same old losing bet. The purchase mandate was necessary, for example, because the cross-subsidies are more blatant and more severe. The young and healthy know they're being forced to subsidize those with chronic problems, and the only way to keep them in the system is to make it illegal to opt out. And, with everyone on the inside, that gives government much more leeway to control who gets which services and how much we'll pay for them.
The plan raises billions of dollars in new taxes and cuts hundreds of billions more out of Medi-care. It then spends those "savings" to subsidize private-sector health coverage and a Medicaid expansion. But the need to restrain costs will make the third party in the doctor-patient-payer relationship increasingly more important than the second.
Someone needs to determine what's worth paying for. However, with government picking up the tab, health care decision-making will no longer lie with the patient and his or her doctor, but in a committee of bureaucrats in Washington. You can be sure more of our health care dollars will be shifted away from those services we as consumers value and toward those that government bureaucrats value.
This kind of decision-making might be able to bring down health care costs, but it does so at the expense of adequate patient care. In the long run, requiring every new pharmaceutical, medical device and surgical procedure to be cheap enough and effective on a broad enough number of patients to get the support of bureaucratic bean counters could wreak havoc on long-term medical innovation.
But simply repealing Obamacare will only put a bandage on the wound that is our dysfunctional health care system. Nearly all these distortions were present already in our health care system, just to a less severe degree. So, real reform will require dismantling the layers of overlapping regulatory fixes imposed from Washington over the past few decades.
In addition to streamlining entitlement programs, we'll need to eliminate the tax disincentives that push individuals into employment-based insurance, scrap federal and state rules that dictate health plan design, and put more purchasing power in the hands of individuals. Republican leaders, such as Reps. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, Tom Price of Georgia and others, as well as free-market advocates outside of government, have pointed us in the right direction. It is now time to set a course toward a healthier America with a genuine, consumer-driven reform of our health care system.

Abstract: 【Objective】There exists a large difference in body size among individuals of the same plant species, which is an important factor for affecting the spatial structure of plant populations. In this study, we aimed to explore the types of spatial distributions of large individuals in population, examining the interaction between large and small individuals, and to provide basic information for city verdurization.【Method】Four species of dwarf bamboos were chosen from the campus of Nanjing Forestry University, namely Pleioblastus pygmaeus, Indocalamus barbatus, P. fortunei and P. argenteostriataus. We divided dwarf bamboo into two groups: large individuals(cases)and small individuals(controls), then used the second-order analysis of spatial clustering combined with the Monte-Carlo test, to analyze the spatial distribution types and calculated the intensity surfaces.【Result】The results showed that: ① The P. pygmaeus, I. barbatus and P. argenteostriataus exhibited random Poisson distribution on given distance scales and no clustering characteristics. ② The P. fortunei also exhibited a random distribution, but it is slightly weaker than the other three species; ③ The four studied dwarf bamboo species had different intensity surfaces in their corresponding study regions.【Conclusion】Difference in the body size among the dwarf bamboos can affect the dynamics of intraspecific resource(especially in space)competition. It also indicated that spatial distribution pattern of large individuals reflects the external performance of the comprehensive capacity of dwarf bamboo populations in habitats. In the natural environment, based on the individual difference in size, dwarf bamboos populations forms special spatial structures through its own regulation mechanism and a series of ecological processes.
