Retribution? Pelosi Suggests Jan. 6 Commission Investigating GOP Reps. Jordan, Banks After They Publicly Criticize Her
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) suggested during an interview Monday that a select committee tasked with investigating the Capitol riot is investigating Reps. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Jim Banks (R-IN).
Both representatives have publicly criticized Pelosi for rejecting them from serving on the committee and questioned the House speaker's alleged role in the security lapse on January 6.
Speaking to The 19th News, Pelosi called Jordan and Banks "clowns," "outrageous," and "not serious" and accused them of perpetuating the so-called "Big Lie," though she did not offer examples aside from the Republicans objecting to the Electoral College vote certification, which Democrats have also done in the past.
"We'll see what the committee finds out about them," Pelosi told the The 19th News, referring to the Republicans.
As noted by Forbes, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MD) made it clear that "nothing will be off-limits" for the panel to investigate. Moreover, Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) "said he supports subpoenaing top House Republicans."
Kinzinger and Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) are the sole Republicans on the committee and both vociferous critics of former President Donald Trump. Rep. Denver Riggleman (D-VA) was tapped earlier this month to advise the committee.
In July, Jordan said Pelosi bounced him from the select committee for pressing the Democrat about her alleged role in the security breakdown at the Capitol on January 6.
"The real question is, and I've said this many times, why weren't those guys who testified today and all the other Capitol Hill police who protect us and protect Capitol Hill, why weren't they given more help?" Jordan told Fox News.
"Why wasn't more help there that day? And the only person who can answer that question is the speaker of the United States House of Representatives," the Republican continued. "And I think she thought we were going to keep raising that question, and that's why she didn't put me on [the committee]."
"We're just asking a fundamental question," Jordan said. "Why wasn't there a proper security posture on January 6, and what have we done to correct that? And to make sure it doesn't happen in the future. I think those are fundamental questions. It's not about blame. The blame resides with the people who did wrong. They should be prosecuted and they are being."
According to Fox News, Pelosi, as House speaker, "does appoint the House sergeant-at-arms, who is on the Capitol Police Board that oversees the department. The department is also overseen by committees from both houses of Congress." She does not directly oversee the U.S. Capitol Police.
Banks similarly blasted the top Democrat for refusing to answer questions concerning the security at the Capitol.

Q: How to reduce memory usage on windows azure shared website? I have a site hosted on Windows Azure shared websites. It just got suspended for going over memory usage limit of 512MB/hour.
I do use .net caching rather heavily (to prevent multiple calls to database/external APIs, etc...).
Is that caching a no-no in shared websites on Windows Azure?

A: Do you use System.Runtime.Cache? You should be able to limit the amount of caching e.g. the memorycache object uses. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd941874.aspx for more information.

A: Even if you will stop using Cache it still can be used by framework/libs. I also have same problem (interesting, that in free mode memory limit is 1024MB, but shared one is lowered to 512).
As I see, memory amount that Azure shows on portal seems very close to System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().PrivateMemorySize value.
At this moment I'm experimenting with caching settings to set maximum memory:
<system.web>
  <caching>
    <cache privateBytesLimit="250000000" privateBytesPollTime="00:00:15"/>
  </caching>
</system.web>

Several days ago I set 300MB but several minutes ago got suspended again :(, so lowering to 250MB.
But anyway, this is very unclear, strange and "wrong" solution imho.
UPDATE
Got suspended again this morning. Temporarily converted to standard mode with small instance (1.7 GB RAM).
My WorkingSet counter now is about 200 megs now (with PeakWorkingSet 330 megs). BUT! GC's CollectionCount is increased approx 8 times (Gen0 is 1800 times instead of 250 for less that a day).
My current theory is that in "shared" mode websites are running inside "big" VM with a lot of memory and Garbage Collector just not have a need to run often, leading to longer "garbage life" and more memory consumption.
Have no access to my developer computer right now for some verification, but planing to convert site to web role in cloud service ASAP - with extra small instance (cost is comparable to shared web site cost)...

A: Might be worth checking a profile using perfmon on your local machine to see if what if its hitting the limits normally first, then look at maybe configuring the logging on Azure and again digging through it.
Also ensuring everything is precompiled and that your not loading and modules etc you don't need can really effect performance etc on Azure.

A: I think what you might want to try here is scale our instead of up. If you add a second instance that will double your resource limit.

Coleen Ellis is a mover and a shaker. She has almost single-handedly made it possible for many people to access a pet-specific funeral home when they seek to memorialize a beloved animal's passing. More and more, companion animals' status in our lives is rising, as the value of their relationship with humans is lent credence by more professional associations. Read about the exciting new trends in pet funerals and even legal arenas.—Sid
Pet funeral industry undergoing major changes
Today, there are over 750 pet funeral homes, pet crematories and pet cemeteries across the country — and a lot of human funeral homes have or are looking at ways to offer services when pets die. By: Associated Press, INFORUM

LOS ANGELES — Her 14-year-old dog Mico had lung cancer and Coleen A. Ellis knew she was taking her to the vet for the last time. She watched as the vet started to put the terrier schnauzer's body in a garbage bag. "I couldn't just walk out of there with a leash and a collar," she said. Ellis took Mico's body home instead. A local funeral home agreed to cremate Mico. But as she waited in the chapel, Ellis said she was told they couldn't turn on the lights because they were having a service for "a real death" down the hall. She vowed to make changes.
A year later, in 2004, Ellis opened what is believed to be the country's first stand-alone pet funeral home in Indianapolis. Today, there are over 750 pet funeral homes, pet crematories and pet cemeteries across the country — and a lot of human funeral homes have or are looking at ways to offer services when pets die. Ellis sold her mortuary and now runs Two Hearts Pet Loss Center, which arranges memorial services and helps people grieve the loss of a pet. In 2009, she helped start the Pet Loss Professionals Alliance as a committee of the International Cemetery, Cremation and Funeral Association.
As the industry grew, so did the alliance. It's holding its second annual conference this week in Las Vegas. The group's goals are simple — set and maintain standards for services related to pet deaths, such as funerals, memorials, cremations and burials. Poul H. Lemasters, an attorney and president of Lemasters Consulting in Cincinnati, has worked in the funeral industry for over 15 years and is licensed as a funeral director and embalmer in Ohio and West Virginia. When he talked about pet cremation liabilities at PLPA's inaugural meeting in San Antonio, he drew an audience of 200. More than twice that number has signed up to attend his session at this week's PLPA conference.
Consumers need more than a handshake from pet morticians, he explained. They need transparency, including a standard cremation authorization form spelling out services, methods, choices and cost. The PLPA will vote on a proposed form during their convention.
"On the human side, the biggest issue out there is always wrongful cremation. On the pet side, it's not wrongful cremations, but whether cremations are being done at all," Lemasters said. There have been animal dumping cases in Arizona, Virginia and Tennessee, where pets were stored instead of cremated, then taken to a landfill or dump and dropped off, he said. He said Illinois is the frontrunner on laws governing disposition of deceased pets and pet funerals. Ninety percent of pet owners choose cremation rather than burial for their pets, he said.
But while cremation has been offered for a long time, many other types of legal issues related to the deaths of pets — and even the deaths of owners who are survived by their pets — are now getting more attention. Pets are named in wills, they receive trusts, they are part of prenuptial agreements.
In a few states, laws are being rewritten to treat pets as more than personal property, Lemasters said. California has a new law that says if your animal is killed maliciously, you can claim certain types of damages, Lemasters said. In Florida, a dog died while under a veterinarian's care and was cremated before an autopsy could be conducted. The family was awarded more than $10,000 in punitive damages. Nevada enacted a law allowing pet-owners emotional damages from the death of a pet in certain circumstances up to $5,000. But pet owners can also sue for vet bills and funeral costs, Lemasters said. "The fact they are starting to recognize funeral costs for a pet, that's pretty unbelievable."
Memorial services are sometimes held for working dogs, too, whose deaths may affect not just the animal's owner or handler, but an entire agency, business or community. When a police dog named Bo was killed in May 2007, Ellis was asked to help arrange a memorial service. Bo had been with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department for about four years when a burglar "turned around with a gun and shot Bo a couple of times. Bo went back to his handler and died in his arms," Lt. Benny Diggs said. Bo's service was attended by about 150 people from the police department and the community. "I really believe it helps," Diggs said. "When you are a policeman, especially a K-9 handler, that dog becomes your partner."
The 30-minute service was respectful, but didn't go overboard, he added. "We keep it in perspective. We are losing soldiers daily in Afghanistan and Iraq and police officers are dying throughout the United States every week. We never want to take away from their service or what they are doing for the community," he said.
As pets play bigger roles in people's lives, it makes sense they will be treated more like family when they die, and that includes holding the types of funeral services that at one time were held only for people, said veterinarian Jane Shaw, who spoke at PLPA's meeting last year. Shaw is director of the Argus Institute in the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colo. "Telling stories, playing music and reading poetry are all things that allow us to express what this individual meant to us," she said, "whether it's human or animal."
Unique Pet Funeral Urns Made Affordable

Everyone who's lost a pet has had to make a decision about what to do with the body and/or cremains. One home-based business owner decided to provide affordably priced unique, artful urns for both people and pets.—Sid
Funeral urn sales fill a need
Home-based business offers wide selection of vessels at good prices

A Saanich woman's frustrating search for suitable funeral urns for the remains of her mother-in-law and family pet took her to the other side of the world and head-first into an unusual home-based business.
Teresa Westhead started importing decorative urns from Indonesia and Vietnam earlier this year to give people an alternative to what she calls the often bland and higher-priced urns provided by funeral homes and the containers used by animal hospitals.
Eternal Vessel offers hand-made marble, ceramic and bamboo-lacquer designs that are affordable and blend in with home decor, said Westhead. She carries more than 25 styles of cremation urns — almost all of them selling for $99 or less — about a third of the cost of funeral home urns, said Westhead.
She is currently marketing her products on the web at http://www.EternalVessel.com
"Our father had difficulty finding an urn that was not hundreds of dollars and something that would reflect our mother's taste and style," said Westhead, a former paralegal. "After sharing our story with many people, we discovered there was an ongoing theme of frustration in locating a suitable urn or vessel for people's loved one's remains.
"Our vessels hide their true nature and allow you to keep your loved one close without the nature of the vessel being obvious to others."
British Columbia leads all Canadian provinces in cremations at 78 per cent of all deaths, according to the Memorial Society of B.C. The national average is 56 per cent.
People are also increasingly providing funeral services for their pets, or at least having their remains cremated and stored in urns. A new pet funeral parlour is opening next month in Victoria providing various services, including cremations.
The death of Westhead's dog, Bitta, a rescued giant schnauzer who died at age 12, helped to spur her quest. When the family pet's ashes were returned in an animal hospital urn, "we were disappointed, to say the least," said Westhead. "The urn that was provided was not something we would place in our home. She sat hidden in our basement for several years."
Westhead said buying a funeral urn online can be helpful to families coming from different parts of the province, country or world. "They can all have a say in what's chosen before the funeral," she said.

Lincoln in the Bardo – a very funny and brilliant novel
Who knew that experimental literary fiction could give you belly laughs? Well, Lincoln in the Bardo is one of the funniest and most raucous books I have ever read, of any genre. I didn't expect it to be funny. It is also many other things as well – but I think that its humour was the greatest surprise for me, especially given that the principle focus of the novel, outwardly at least, is death. Yet on reflection I don't think that I should have been so surprised because this book does not provide a type of artistic experimentation that feels academic and ultimately alienating; instead it offers a carnivalesque celebration in the finest traditions of the novel, which has it its heart Bhaktinian dialogism and heteroglossia.
Do you see what I did there? I explained how a novel that you might think would be artistically elitist actually turns out not to be using academically elitist language. That deserves a bit more explanation.
Mikhail Bakhtin was a Russian theorist who wrote extensively about the novel using slightly obscure terminology. But beyond the terminology, he offers a compelling analysis. Let's go back to what the word 'novel' means – new and original. Bhaktin's view of true novels is that they always seeking to be new and original by being an 'anti-form' that undermines the idea of single, authoritative truth in texts. He argues that the thing that makes novels distinct is the way that they incorporate a range of different speech types – or 'discourses' – that compete against one another within the text in a way that never fully resolves itself. This is something that Bhaktin called 'dialogics'. David Lodge explained it by saying that 'As soon as you allow a variety of discourses into a textual space…you establish a resistance… to the dominance of any one discourse.' So rather than a unified, homogenous form of language, the novel presents a heteroglossic variety of language types.

Dame Vera Lynn's new book
Dame Vera Lynn's new book Keep Smiling Through: My Wartime Story is published today by Century. Vera turned 100 earlier this year and I have been fortunate enough to work with her and her daughter Virginia Lewis-Jones in telling the remarkable story of her visit to entertain the troops in Burma in 1944.
Her visit coincided with the turning point in the war in the Far East and she was close to the front as the pivotal battles of Kohima and Imphal were being fought. Vera had just turned twenty-seven, and had only been out of the country once before, but she wanted to do 'her bit' to help.

Q: Jquery Mobile Displaying External Web Site In A Dialog Anyone know of a few methods to handle opening an external site (google.com) inside of a jquery mobile dialog. Everything is so new right now resources and examples are limited.
Thanks!
I have a feeling it's done a bit differently then a normal jquery iframe load. This is partially from the documentation.
$.mobile.loadPage( "site/page" )

A: I created a separate page within my own jQuery Mobile site, and within that page I included an iFrame with width="100%".  Then I linked to that page using data-rel="dialog" within the anchor of the link.  This produced the desired effect.  A pop-up dialog within jQuery containing a local page which itself contained an iframe to a page on a totally separate domain name.  It worked flawlessly.  When the other domain was a jQuery Mobile site, it even LOOKED flawless!


Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said Thursday he will not attend an investment summit in Saudi Arabia next week, marking the Trump administration's first decisive rebuke to the Saudis over the disappearance of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.
"Just met with @realDonaldTrump and @SecPompeo and we have decided, I will not be participating in the Future Investment Initiative summit in Saudi Arabia," Mnuchin wrote on Twitter.
Khashoggi, a U.S. resident, has not been seen since entering a Saudi consulate in Turkey on Oct. 2, and reports by Turkish intelligence officials of his death and dismemberment at the hands of a team of Saudi agents have brought new scrutiny to the Trump administration's ties to the kingdom.
The Trump administration has been under pressure to show it is responding to Khashoggi's disappearance, which has sparked an international uproar. Trump this week said the Saudi royal family had denied knowing what happened in the consulate and suggested "rogue killers" could be responsible for Khashoggi's death.
A slew of business leaders have also canceled plans to attend the Future Investment Initiative in Riyadh. JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon and the chief executives of Blackstone and BlackRock added their names to the growing list of cancellations this week. Several media companies had already severed ties to the Oct. 23-25 conference.

The Saturn Partners, Inc. | Email And Social Engineering Services | Saturn Partners, Inc.
At SPI, we know that frequently the biggest security "holes" involve the human aspect of business- namely, employees knowingly or unknowlingy divulging confidential employer information which could compromise the security of the client network and corporate environment. We have designed a two part strategy for our clients for Email and Onsite Social Engineering to investigate and correct this problem.
Email is a powerful social and business tool but one frequently abused/misused by employees. Many times the security breach is not malicious, but unintentionally done or carelessly done. Our intent is to email targeted personnel to attempt to get them to, through email contact, divulge bank information, customer information, etc. to our investigator. We work through several attempts, noting all actions and reactions of the targeted person, along with our line of inquiry and methods of inquiring sensitive information to them.
If the client has employee security training, we would study this to test the targeted employee to ascertain their level of understanding of security responsibilities regarding /customer/sensitive information when attempting to gain unauthorized information. Full details are documented of all steps taken during this set of attempts, which could occur over days or a few weeks, depending on the reaction of the employee to the attempts. All findings would be documented in our usual fashion with a written and electronic outbrief of the findings and security risks we see posed by the reaction of the employee.

Truth, Lies, and Tweets
Story by Jonathan Littman	| March 12, 2018
During a week in which the US sparked a global trade war, North Korea's missile-happy leader agreed to a face-to-face with Trump, and a porn star sued our President, you could be forgiven if you missed arguably the week's biggest news. MIT revealed the results of a comprehensive study that showed that fake news – lies by any other name – travels six times faster on social media than the truth.
In an age when we often consume little more than tweets, headlines, posts and soundbites, this is one research article worth reading in its entirety for the simple reason that it may transform how you think about truth and lies in our modern age. Three scientists from MIT's Media Lab – Soroush Vosoughi, Deb Roy and Sinan Aral – conducted a detailed machine-learning-styled experiment published in the March 9 issue of Science. They examined 126,000 stories tweeted by 3 million people more than 4.5 million times, gauging truth and lies with multiple fact-checking organizations (Snopes, PolitiFact, Factcheck.org, etc.).
Lies, wrote the researchers, spread like wildfire, diffusing "significantly farther, faster, deeper, and more broadly than the truth." Lies inspired "fear, disgust and surprise" in contrast to true stories which inspired "anticipation, sadness, joy, and trust." Lies beat the truth by a factor of six to one in how fast they spread, and "falsehood also reached far more people than the truth." Humans, wrote the researchers, not bots, are mainly to blame. We're simply programmed to react more intensely to lies because lies are novel and tap into our desire to be surprised: "we do find that false news is more novel and that novel information is more likely to be retweeted."
Not surprisingly, the study proves that lying about politics works better than any other kind of lying (such as rumors about terrorism, natural disasters, science, and other news). George Orwell, the author of 1984, knew this in his bones 70 years ago: "Political language … is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."
The MIT study provides an empirical modern basis for what dictators and demagogues have known for centuries and what Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's henchman said long ago. "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it." This is why Trump kept repeating a bald-faced lie about Obama's birthplace. No matter how many times Obama or defenders called it a lie, the lie still snowballed, developing its own momentum, impervious to the truth. Today's social media engines are optimized for lies because of their peer-to-peer nature, and the almost total lack of checks and balances. "The spread of falsehood was aided by its virality," wrote the researchers, "meaning that falsehood did not simply spread through broadcast dynamics but rather through peer-to-peer diffusion characterized by a viral branching process. "
History, as seen through the lens of MIT's revealing new evidence, raises a critical challenge. Fighting lies with truth has always been a bit like trying to put out a five-alarm fire with a garden hose. What's more, the study raises a telling current question the authors don't address. Snopes, PolitiFact, and factcheck.org are all too little too late, and emblematic of today's stacked deck, a structural imbalance that favors rumor over reality. Fact-checking after the fact in the age of tweets, bots, and damaging viral untruths might make us feel better, but we've already lost. The people (or bots) who retweet specious claims are by definition not verifying the information first, they're merely knee-jerking. And sites that raise red flags hours or days after a lie has already gone global, while well-intentioned, are not offering a programmatic solution.
Studies and investigations of Russian interference are not enough. Let's mobilize tech to address this existential problem. It's past time for government, institutions, Twitter, Facebook and Google to join together and put in place technical barriers to this social malaise that's threatening nations. Tackling the corrupting influence of propaganda requires the same sort of aggressive campaign we might apply to other threats to our national security. Just as countries need soldiers and weapons to defend themselves, we need talented people and new tools to identify and squelch falsehoods in the moment, through technology and crowdsourcing.
Let's kill the lies at the source before they kill us.

We study the connection between operator valued central limits for monotone, Boolean and free probability theory, which we shall call the arcsine, Bernoulli and semicircle distributions, respectively. In scalar-valued non-commutative probability these distributions are known to satisfy certain arithmetic relations with respect to Boolean and free convolutions. We show that, generally, the corresponding operator-valued distributions satisfy the same relations only when we consider them in the fully matricial sense introduced by Voiculescu. In addition, we provide a combinatorial description in terms of moments of the operator valued arcsine distribution and we show that its reciprocal Cauchy transform satisfies a version of the Abel equation similar to the one satisfied in the scalar-valued case.

Understanding Irish Land Divisions
Understanding the way Ireland was divided up for administrative purposes at various times in the past is central to knowing where to look for records.
It also helps you to make sense of the different place names you will find in various records referring to the same person.
These are not as complex as they first seem.
The various divisions you need to know about are:
Baronies
The importance of each of these divisions from a genealogical researchers viewpoint is highlighted and explained below.

Ireland is divided into 4 provinces. These provinces date back over 600 years, but they are not that widely used or very important in records commonly consulted by genealogists.
Connaught (or Connacht)
Northern Ireland comprises most but not all of of Ulster. Each province is further sub-divided into a number of counties.
Counties of Ireland
There are 32 counties in Ireland, 26 in the Irish Republic and 6 in Northern Ireland (in italics below for clarity).
Most counties were established as far back as the 1300's, all were in place with much the same boundaries as to-day by the early 1600's.
County Tipperary, since 1898, has been divided into North and South for Administrative purposes. Records subsequent to that date will be separate from each other.
County Dublin has been divided since 1993 into Fingal, Dun Laoghaire/Rathdown and South Dublin.

Baronies were administrative subdivisions of Counties, each comprising a number of civil parishes, though they do not conform precisely to county borders. They were established mostly during the 15th and 16th centuries. They are no longer have any administrative function and have not had one since the mid-1800's, but they arise frequently in historic records.
The 1901 census was taken on a Barony basis, but it is possible to search it without knowing a barony name.
There are 273 baronies in Ireland.
Civil & Church Parishes
Based on medieval Christian Parishes, these were adopted by the English administration as the smallest administrative units in Ireland. There are approximately 2,445 civil parishes in Ireland, though they are no longer used for any administrative purpose.
There is often confusion between Civil and Church parishes, so a brief explanation of how and why they differ is in order here.
Catholic Parishes
From the beginning of the late 1500's, following the establishment of the Church of Ireland, Roman Catholic parishes began to develop separately. Their names and the areas they encompass are not the same as those of civil parishes.
Church of Ireland Parishes
Church of Ireland parishes were originally similar to civil ones, but where there were insufficient parishioners serveral church parishes were amalgamated and thus a single Church of Ireland parish could contain a number of civil parishes. Similarly in areas where there were more parishoners, there could be several church parishes in one civil parish.
Catholic and Church of Ireland records are recorded by parish, but these parishes will not correspond to each other. If civil parishes are mentioned in records they are unlikely to correspond with the names of Catholic ones and may not correspond to Church of Ireland ones either.
Catholic parishes merged, emerged and disappeared at various times, with records being amalgamated or passed over to another parish. This needs to be borne in mind if searching for Catholic church records.
Townlands are the smallest land divisions in Ireland Ireland, ranging in size from as small as a few acres to more than 50,000 acres. In general, the better the land, the smaller the townland. Most Irish people living outside towns would have used their townland name as their address in both civil and religious records, and still do.
Many Townlands are of very old origin and they developed in various ways – from ancient clan lands, lands attached to Norman manors or Plantation divisions. Several townlands of the same name may exist even within one county and the same names appear again and again in different parts of the country. Since the names often derive from natural features – hills, wood, rivers etc – this is not surprising.
There are over 62,000 townlands in Ireland and although they never had a central administrative function they are very important in precisely defining a location for mapping and surveying. They are still used for this purpose in Ireland to-day and are still an integral part of any rural-dwellers postal address.
Past Homes has a full range of 19th century townland maps available for online browsing or to buy as images. However there is a registration fee for browsing the maps of $25 per year and additional charges for printable versions.
Although they never had an administrative function, townland names were and are used by people to refer to the place they come from. Thus an oral record of a place where an ancestor lived may refer to a townland.
When searching land, property or tax records, the townland will be an important piece of information to know.
These were created by the 1839 Poor Law Act, whose primary purpose was to set up an administration for responding to the growing numbers of destitute people in Ireland.
The Act legislated for the collection of a poor law rate or tax from landowners, to be used to set up and finance a workhouse in each district. As a result of the act 163 new administrative divisions – known as Poor Law Unions – were created.
Each Poor Law Union comprised a market town (after which the Union was named) and its natural catchment area. The drawing up of the unions often ignored existing boundaries of townlands, parishes and even counties.
When a health care system was introduced, the poor law unions were further sub-divided into dispensary districts, to each of which a doctor was appointed.
When birth, marriage and death registration was introduced in 1864, the dispensary districts were used as registration districts with the dispensary doctor acting as registrar, under the supervision of a Superintendent registrar in each Poor Law Union.
This explains the odd anomaly in Ireland by which registrations of Births, Marriages and Deaths are still maintained by the Department of Health; in Northern Ireland responsibility has been given to the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency.
The unions created by the Poor Law are still used as Registration Districts to-day, though doctors no longer act as registrars.
Registration districts and the Poor Law unions from which they evolved are the basis on which civil records are most easily searched. If you know only the name of the place from which your ancestor came, this is probably a townland name. You need to establish what district or poor law union that townland would have been in.
Making Sense of Place Names
All these different divisions can seem very confusing, and in truth they confused even the 19th century administrators who used them! As a result, in 1861, a book which continues to be a vital source to-day was published, the "General Alphabetical Index to the Townlands and Towns, Parishes and Baronies of Ireland".
This book, based on data from the 1851 census, lists all known place names in Ireland – over 70,000 of them – and even more importantly relates the various divisions to each other.
You could buy a copy of the book, but it's horribly expensive and there is no need. It is out of copyright, and the full text is available and searchable here.

Yesterday our sewing group got together - The Twisted Sisters. One of my sisters graciously accepted the request to make a shop sample for me. She did a beautiful job and has embellished this tree with many crystals to make it very elegant looking. It is a very easy pattern by Eddy & Eddy and has many possibilities. We'll certainly be making kits for this wall hanging.
I saw this sample a few days ago and it is awesome. I have to have this pattern!

"Please don't judge my bagel-eating in church!" I said to my friend yesterday morning. I was kidding; I go to a casual church service and I knew that my friend would not mind that I ate my breakfast during the announcement time.
But now I'm thinking...Why did I feel the need to justify my behavior (even jokingly)?
Judgment has become a real and prevalent problem in the church today. And it goes so far beyond the silly things like eating bagels.
In the Relevant article "Why Are Christians So Judgmental?" author and pastor Michael Hidalgo says that the tendency for Christians to judge others is an epidemic that has created a toxic atmosphere in the church.
Christians tend to go on the offensive when someone makes a mistake. We attack them with hurtful words and cruel jokes that we often publicize on Facebook. We forget that Jesus said, "Do not judge," and judgment becomes our first reflex.
Why is this is go-to response?
Yes, we need to discern good from evil, Hidalgo writes. But judgement is not discernment. Judgement is a form of condemnation and it is causing our brothers and sisters hurt and pain.
When we condemn another person, we cause them unnecessary suffering. And in an age when social media allows us to broadcast our opinions to thousands with one easy click, we only cause further harm.
Judgment gives us a feeling of superiority. We become prideful that we did not succumb to the sin that they did. We boast of our own righteousness through the judgement of others and it satiates our human hunger to feel like we are better than everyone else.
But there is a better way, a way that Jesus has called us to follow.
Hidalgo says we must seek "to reconcile, restore and renew." We must start by loving those who have wronged us. And the love that we give cannot be passive, but "violent," the kind of love that is demonstrated on the cross.
"The cross was the single greatest act of love in human history, and it was, at the same time, extremely violent. The difference is Jesus took the violence on Himself. He did not strike out at those who mocked Him or fight against those who nailed Him in place; He forgave them," Hidalgo writes.
It is impossible to demonstrate violent love and judge at the same time. When another's pain becomes our own, we no longer feel the need to judge their mistake. Instead, we become ministers of reconciliation, easing the pain of others.
Until now, we have relentlessly judged our brothers and sisters. Our opinions and uncompassionate words have driven others out of the church with emotional wounds, some of which are carried throughout their lives.
It is time to change our first response to one of love, not judgement. And we need to heal the wounds we have caused.
In the article "How to Support a Friend Who Has Been Hurt by the Church," Bronwyn Lea writes that Christians are to demonstrate Jesus' love to those who have suffered.
"When we have friends who are hurting because they've suffered at the hands of the church, we need to be the church to them: asking their forgiveness where we've wronged them, and making every effort to 'keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace' (Ephesians 4:3)," Lea writes.
Remember Jesus has called us to not to judge or condemn, but to forgive (Luke 6:37). Our sins have been forgiven through the greatest act of love the world has ever known. The least we can do in return is to stop judging the mistakes of others, and instead demonstrate love.

Marjolein talked about Unlocking Creativity at the TEDx event in Roermond.
She drew from her latest research on factors that hamper or stimulate creativity as a way to solve problems and innovate in large organizations. The live-stream had more than 500,000 live viewers.
What makes you creative? Does a lack of money hinder your creativity, or do you get motivated instead? Does creativity need constraints?
This talk delves into the effect of constraints on employee creativity. Some research shows that constraining factors on the organizational level are detrimental to organizational creativity. Other studies suggest that constraints could stimulate creativity rather than suppress it. In her talk Marjolein Caniëls offers a new perspective to explain these seemingly contrasting findings. In her research she found that being confronted with constraints makes employees indeed feel challenged and creative. At the same time, these constraints make it impossible to actually be creative. Constraints may bring out the best in people in terms of feeling ingenuous, but constraints still limit the actual room for creative solutions.
Even though leaders set creativity as an important goal, more often than not creative ideas are routinely rejected because they are seen as being to radically new, and therefore too risky. The consequence is that ideas are not put to the test. In such organizational cultures employees can maintain a self-image of being creative. Unless ideas are put to the test, true creativity will not get a chance. This insight provides an opportunity for organizations, which should not be wasted. Ideas need to be put to the test!
Testing of ideas goes hand in hand with accepting occasional failures. Failing ideas provide valuable information for the direction in which solutions can be found. This is what Learning Organizations do. Hence, leaders should stimulate idea generation, be open to creative ideas, and welcome occasional mistakes. Intelligent failures should be awarded. Likewise, employees should believe in their ideas and not be discouraged by the possibility of failure. Together, leaders and employees will unlock the creative potential that is already there!

Rugby star opens up about his depression
By Catherine Walker
How refreshing to read on Independent.ie that the Irish rugby ace Alan Quinlan has spoken publicly for the first time about his experience of depression. He is to talk at a series of regional events on mental health next week and he says that he hit 'the bottom of the barrel' and that he had suicidal thoughts.
After England cricketer Mike Yardy returned to the sport last month after depression, Quinlan joins the list of sportsmen who have openly discussed this condition. He spoke out about how he 'sank into the depths of depression' after a suspension for eye gouging in 2009. This suspension resulted in the star missing the British and Irish Lions tour of South Africa.
'Experiencing depression was a shock and at first I was unwilling to talk about it. It never occurred to me to open up or tell people about my problems,' said the rugby star who recently announced his retirement from rugby.
'Look, I don't want people to think I'm some kind of victim or basket case. I'm not. I'm not someone who's either up or down the whole time, I'm just someone who has been up and down and sometimes still gets a little blue and finds there's nothing to be ashamed in that. I've accepted I can't change what happened with the Lions. I can't rewind the button,' he told The Examiner newspaper before going on a series of speaking engagements as part of Mental Health week.
Quinlan split from his top model wife last year after just two years of marriage and now their two-year-old son is the most important thing in his life.
'Thankfully, with the support of my GP, friends and family I have come through the experience and am happy to share what I have gone through in the hope that it will help others,' he said.
He has labelled himself a worrier and it was only after opening up to members of the Munster backroom team and then meeting psychotherapist Dr. Michael Horgan in 2009, that Quinlan admitted to feeling 'much better for it'.
After therapy he now believes in his ability and repeats to himself on a constant basis prior to a match: 'I can do this – I'm a good player – I'm a good person'.
The initial problem was not asking others for help and being unwilling to talk about how he felt. 'There's a bit of a stigma attached to men going to the doctor and asking for a bit of help or even opening up to friends and family members. It's not the done thing in Ireland. But if you have a toothache you go to the dentist. Yet if you're feeling low down people here tend not to talk about it. I was, 'well, I can solve all my own problems and look after myself'. That's not the way to do it. You have to reach out and ask for some help.' He admitted.
We applaud Quinlan for bringing this issue out into the open. As a male and a sports star his example could help many others faced with feelings of depression. It really is necessary to talk about it, let it out and to seek appropriate help. Uncovered magazine wishes him all the very best on his road to recovery and happiness.
