London: James Carpenter, 1820. Two volumes complete - Volume One - xlvi, , 50-175pp,  and Volume Two - 148pp. Contemporary full morocco, semi-raised bands, spines in six panels, title in gilt to second panel, volume number to fifth, remaining panels gilt with flower corner pieces and central fleur de lis, covers with thick and thin fillet bordering an anthemion roll frame with a central arabesque, gilt roll to edges, gilt flower roll to inner edges, watered silk doublures, a.e.g. with attractive fore-edge paintings to each volume; volume one showing four cherubs frolicking in an urn and volume two showing an old man under a blanket talking to a cherub who is holding a cup. Slightly rubbed to extremities, small ink spot to upper cover of volume one and lower cover of volume two. One or two spots of foxing, some off setting from frontispiece on to title, frontispiece probably lacking tissue guard, but generally bright and clean. Each volume with Selborne library stamp to foot of reverse of title and once to bottom margin of text leaf, volume one with small book label of Marion C. Walker to reverse of silk endpaper, small amount of glue remnant where a previous owners' book plate has been removed. Pencilled note to endpaper stating the book was from James Toovey's library (possibly the glue remnant mentioned above, it could well have been an oval bookplate like Toovey's); another pencilled note in the same hand notes that the binding is by Edwards of Halifax, though there is no direct evidence of this. The fore-edges appear to be initialled but I cannot make the initials out. The fore-edges look, to me, like they have some age, but Weber notes that most fore-edge paintings are twentieth century in origin. Reprint. Full Morocco. Very Good. 12mo. Fore-edge Painting.
Neu-Market, Va.: Salomen Henkel, 1820. Woodcut frontispiece and titlepage vignette. 12mo. Original cloth backed, paper covered boards, decorated with woodcuts of an elephant and a rooster. Boards very lightly stained. Internally bright and clean. A near fine copy, in original condition. Styled "Second edition" on the titlepage, though with a pagination conforming to the first edition. A charming speller and alphabet book for children, produced by the Henkel family press in New Market, Virginia in 1806. Led by the renowned preacher, Paul Henkel, they established the first Lutheran publishing house in the United States. The Henkels published numerous Christian catechisms, hymn books, and other works. The present title is a wonderful example of their pedagogical efforts, designed to teach children to read and spell in German, thereby perpetuating German culture and language in the United States.

Serampore [India]: Printed at the Mission Press 8vo (20.5 cm; 8.125"). 649 pp.. 1820 First and apparently sole printing of any portion of the Bible in Bikaneri (a.k.a.Vikanera), a Marwari language of the Rajasthan region of India. The text is in Devangari characters with an added title-page in English that reports the text was "translated from the originals into the Vikanera language by the Serampore missionaries." The title-page also makes clear that this was meant to be vol. V of a complete translation of the Bible, but that project was never completed and it seems no other books of the Bible have been translated into the language. The non-English title-page reads, in transliteration: "Svaraki sagali katha, jake adamyamkem uddharavei aura calanavei codem karyochem, u, Dharma pustaka, unko chedalo virada, va mhakem taranavala Bhagavanna Yisukhrishtaka phayadaki, Mangalika vatam." => The paper used for the text seems to be native-made laid stock. WorldCat and NUC combine to locate only six copies in U.S. libraries, one of which is this one, properly deaccessioned. Provenance: Ex–Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School library; properly deaccessioned. Contemporary boards covered with blue paper a bit scuffed, soiled, and with areas of wear; original paper shelfback replaced with cloth of a closely matching color.

London William Emans [Thomas Kelly] 1820. 8vo. 522pp. + 1pp plates list and 1pp. ads to rear (including an ad for Huish's "Castle of Niolo" published in 1820 and "The Castle of Inchvally" by Stephen Cullen presumably an Emans reprinting of the 1796 work). Original endpapers (including an admonition against borrowing label to the front pastedown), internally clean and sharp. A very superior copy. The frontispiece portrait of Huish is present, as is the general engraved title page bearing the Kelly imprint (issued with the first installment of the 22 parts) followed by the Emans title page. It's likely that seeing as the two publisher's shared the production responsibilities for the work they issued two title pages at some point before the final installment was issued in 1821. The BL copy only has the Emans title page (as far as I can recall), and the Huish portrait is frequently missing. Regardless any imprint is scarce. Montague Summers himself only possessed the 1834 edition. A really splendid piece of Gothery.

The Bill redistributed 143 parliamentary seats to industrial areas, providing more proportional representation, reducing the traditional powers of the large landowners and the aristocracy, and strengthening the British system of parliamentary democracy.

Jeremy Hunt has now added his voice to that of Maria Miller, only this time he’s gone even further, stating that he would like to see the abortion limit dropped to 12 weeks.
Whilst many of us are delighted to see abortion back up at the top of the political agenda, I can’t help but inwardly sigh at all the inevitable clichés that are going to be trotted out by all sides.
Abortion is an apolitical, secular issue which requires neither recourse to any sort of theism or tribal party loyalty of any description. It boils down to one very simple question: is it ever morally justified to take the life of an unborn child? A negative answer does not necessitate an appeal to God or any belief as to a free-market economy, as evidenced by the various commie, atheist and pagan members of the UK secular pro-life society.
Anyone care to guess how many articles are going to be churned out by the Guardian on this over the weekend? Smoke is already erupting from the keyboards of Diane Abbot and Sarah Ditum. Christian right wing, US tactics, culture wars, women’s health, blah blah.
Nope, just a bunch of people who think killing unborn children is quite wrong. Women do not need direct abortion for their health and how, in this instance late term abortion with all its horrors and side effects can be justified as healthy, is beyond me.
As far as pro-life is concerned, Andy Stephenson is quite correct, this is all a total irrelevance. Time limits and survival rates of premature babies are not the main issue here. The question is when does life begin? Not when does sentience start or when can the baby be said to be alive or philosophical beard stroking as to definitions of awareness, but when does human life begin? If not at conception when precisely does the unborn child suddenly become either human or alive?
The answer to that does not depend upon religious views or political leanings although of course they may influence one’s answer. I can’t reconcile myself with how the Labour party, once traditionally preoccupied with the protection of the poorest and most vulnerable in society, with its traditional ideology of solidarity, can ride roughshod over the rights of humanity on the grounds that it is not yet born. The lives of those humans who are yet to make the journey through the birth canal are not as important as those who have?
Abortion limits matter little when one is talking about the lives of the unborn. It is as abhorrent to kill a three week old unborn baby (who incidentally has a heartbeat) as it is one at twenty four weeks.
Whilst all pro lifers support measures that would reduce the amount of abortions being performed and suffering caused to women, actually what we want to see is an end to abortion.
Neither Jeremy Hunt, Maria Miller or even Nadine Dorries are pro life as they all support a lowering of limits and nothing more. It’s laughable when they are portrayed as pro-life bigots when the truth is that pro-lifers are crying out for politicians who openly support the cause and not what they believe to be achievable.
Personally, like many others I am in favour of a reduction in limits as it will save lives and avert terrible suffering, but there is the risk that such a measure could backfire. We know that women are often pressured and coerced by others, not least by the abortion industry itself. An early limit could in some cases cause a woman to rush her decision and make a mistake that she will regret for the rest of her life. It will however spare some women the agony of late term abortion and could force the unwanted pregnancy rate down.
There is no comparable statistical data available as to what happens when a country drastically reduces the limits on abortion after 40 years of effective abortion on demand, so whatever side of the debate you are on, pro choice, incrementalist or absolutist, the consequences are, to a great extent, guesswork.
It’s great to see the topic of abortion back in the spotlight, public opinion is beginning to change, but the cynic in me scents a distraction. Maria Miller and Jeremy Hunt have not proposed any such legislation or even consultation on the matter, this is simply their personal views. Cameron’s Conservatives are doing appallingly, his personal rating is at an all time low, Osborne is not doing much better, the department of Transport made a huge Horlicks last week, the re-shuffle was a damp squib, Ed Milipede has begun to emerge from his chrysalis, the government have made more u-turns than a motorist who’s switched their sat-nav to Apple maps and suddenly the focus is on private views held about abortion?
Either it’s a total distraction to keep the media and masses talking or they’ve run out of ideas and want the coalition government to be seen to have been decisive and achieved at least one thing over their disastrous tenure.
There is nonsensical talk emanating from the pro-choice lobby about an “abortion policy fit for the 21st century”. What does that mean, teleporting unborn children out of wombs? It’s a desperate attempt to make those who oppose the killing of our unborn seem out of touch, Victorian, paternalistic and uncaring. At least the Victorians actually took some responsibility for the poor and weak, as opposed to outwardly killing them off. What this talk is aimed at is reforming our abortion laws in order to enshrine abortion on demand as a right and removing current medical safeguards. What could happen in practice is we see a reduction in limits coupled with unrestricted early stage abortion, something that would neither be good for women or children, however politicians and members of the public would feel appeased by an intellectually dishonest and unsatisfying compromise.
If the government or an MP really wants to make a difference in terms of reducing abortion, they should stop funding the abortion clinics who make money off the back of women’s misery, not just in the UK but as in the case of Marie Stopes, in China. They’ll also stop funding organisations who promote abortion as being the main option for unplanned teen pregnancies. They’ll ban advertisements for abortion services and pour money into helping mothers, especially young or single mothers and heavily subsidise childcare for those in greatest need. They’ll also give pro life organisations funds to properly counsel and support frightened pregnant women.
Unless and until all of those things happen, it’s all tinkering around the edges, a lot of unnecessary conjecture and a contrived escalation of the perceived culture wars. Let’s face it, the government has firmly stuck its fingers in its ears over the overwhelming majority who do not wish marriage to be re-defined, why are they suddenly going to introduce legislation to cut abortion limits?
The fewer babies killed and women hurt the better, but let’s be honest, without the above measures, bringing limits down is of very little import if one’s ultimate destination is in the sluice of BPAS.

Every day that she puts on shorts and tank tops to run is another “training run” in building up body confidence, says Elizabeth Comeau.
I just detest running in the summer.
It’s hot. It seems harder than normal.
But if I am being honest, those arent' the real reasons why I hate summer running.
Actually, it’s the lack of clothes.
It’s not the actual fashion or gear. It’s that voice in my head that sees the flap and sway underneath my bicep when I wear tank tops, and the quad muscles that could squash someone that seem to scream while trying to escape my running shorts.
I don't hate my body, but I’m not quite comfortable in summer run clothes.
I’d rather run in the freezing cold, in the dead of winter, than run in the summer simply because of the wardrobe.
I was made for turtlenecks (that's what my inner critic says, anyway).
In the winter, I can pile on the clothes, layer after layer and head out the door looking like that kid from the movie “Christmas story” who can’t put his arms down, and it is awesome. I'd rather look like Ralphie than wear simply spandex shorts and a tank top any day of the week.
I mean, I do it, but it makes me wildly uncomfortable despite the fact that I have worked hard to get stronger and fitter than I have ever been.
I’ve gained muscle and lost 80 lbs of fat in the last 3 years. I’ve run marathons, half marathons, and completed triathlons.
And, as a person who feels generally confident, it bothers me to no end that simple workout clothes could send my self-confidence into my gut, whip it into a frenzy, and make me feel like I swallowed a batch of bees.
So how’s a gal supposed to get over that?
I am using the same tactic I used when I first started running and found it scary and overwhelming: I just keep doing it.
Every day that I put on the spandex shorts and tank tops to run is another “training run” in building up my confidence – only it’s not the miles I’m trying to work up to. Instead, I’m trying to work up to that moment where I feel comfortable wearing shorts and a sports bra on a hot run.
I remember the first time I ran a mile I thought I was going to die – it was so scary because it was an unknown. For weeks I just ran one, single, mile until running a mile felt like no big deal – and downright normal.
I kept at it, just tackling the same thing over and over until I felt comfortable.
That’s where I am with summer running and summer workout gear. I keep putting it on because I know NOT running in the summer is not an option for a gal who loves the sport as much as I do (and I'm from New England, weather does not stop us -- ever).
And, as with my running, at some point, the skimpier summer run clothes will start to feel like just another run-of-the-mill part of my routine.
But, in the meantime, a part of me will still secretly love running in the winter more.
Why Is My Groin Swelling?
Why Does Running Make My Head Hurt?

An Ode To The Brokenhearted.
The best people I know have been hurt the worst.
They have been thrown down and torn apart, lied to and cheated on. They have been battered and bruised, maimed, shamed, and raped, and yet, somehow, they have overcome. They have turned fierce. They have worked hard.
The best people I know have shown gratitude to anguish, met sorrow with sincerity, and found peace in the pieces of their wrecked plans and runaway dreams.
Living the difference between sympathy and empathy, they are comfortable with discomfort and they appreciate that pain is not just a feeling, but a phenomenon. They have bathed in failure and they have showered in suffering. They have felt it all. They are raw.
The best people I know have learned that a strong scream is no match for a silent stare. They know the aching empty horror that makes bones throb, the vile darkness that light fears, and the cold dust where embers used to glow.
They have known hurt that is real and bleak and dripping with despair, and they have collapsed, time and time again, only to rise once more. Their wounds have not won. They have healed. They move forward.
They have taken shrapnel to the soul, broken hopes and broken bones, but they continue to battle. They have turned valiant. They are noble.
The best people I know have seen soul mates become strangers and have felt ghosts in their veins where gods used to reign.
They have learned that a broken heart can shatter and a shattered heart can splinter, but, eventually, it can break no more and in that beautiful, morose moment, the broken become unbreakable, unstoppable. They are fearless. They are free.
The best people I know are not immune to heartache; they are intimate with it. They are the blessed, broken angels circling the holy kingdom of forgiveness, the destroyed divine crying tears of pristine grief.
They are the lucky, scarred saviors pacing the grieving halls of redemption, the wounded heroes murmuring hymns of clean consolation. They have been beat up and spat on, kicked in and burnt out, and yet somehow, they have overcome. They are heroic. They have persisted.
They have just made the best of it.

The Intertap Flow Control Faucet is a forward sealing stainless steel faucet similar to the Perlicks. It has a modular, threaded spout which can fit a variety of different attachments including a growler filler or a stout spout. In normal rear-sealing faucets the entire faucet has to drain of beer.
In forward-sealing faucets the faucet keeps beer in it so the inside doesn't have a chance to get sticky, making cleaning much easier. It also reduces the chance of off flavors transfering to your beer while you pour.
The threaded spout easily unscrews from the faucet and can be replaced by a growler filler or stout spout quickly and easily. Pour a pint and then fill a growler in no time at all. Made of stainless steel and comes with a lever to control the flow of your beer.

No doubt about it, podcasting is red hot right now. According to Edison there are over 500,000 podcasts available today with 44% of Americans having consumed some form of podcast content. However, despite this increased consumption the podcast sector hasn’t seen the same growth in monetization. Part of the problem is that many podcasts are still downloaded or cached up front and then listened to later. When listeners do this there are no reporting metrics – like amount of time spent listening or the ability to prove ads are viewed/heard. The other problem with podcast monetization is that very few platforms can insert ads real-time, via normal ad trafficking, so limited “brought to you by” sponsorships tend to be the norm.
AdsWizz is taking a stab at solving podcasting’s revenue problem with the launch of its new Platform Partnership Program. Through this portal podcasters can now make their ad inventory available on AdsWizz’s SSP. This will provide badly needed ad insertion functionality, ad targeting capabilities, and the ability for other DSPs to buy podcast inventory on the open market.
AdsWizz’s first task will be to scale the number of podcasts participating in its supply-side network. If they can successfully build this up they’ll have created the first podcast ad marketplace. Then maybe some of the half million podcasters can start to make some money!

If you suffer from a lot of discomfort and pain in your lower back and tend to find yourself sitting at a desk all day, slumped over a computer, you may want to may want to look into getting a new desk chair. There are quite a few good ones out there, ranging from the affordable (under $100) to the slightly-more-expensive ($1500+). Perhaps the best of the best of desk chairs for back support today, is the Herman Miller Embody, a sturdy, high-end chair created to bridge the gap between nature and our workspaces.
The Embody is a work of art, built with a frame of solid aluminum, graphite and titanium. Herman Miller wanted to create a chair that didn’t just alleviate the problems of sitting, but actually counteracts them, and this goal is evident in the Embody’s design. Meant to replicate the feeling of floating, it features a unique external frame that is meant to mimic your spine; this helps support your back, reducing the compression and tension in your spine. It also increases blood and oxygen flow, which in turn relieves stress.
Backfit Adjustment: The back features the Backfit system, which curves the backrest to match your spine’s natural curve. The Backfit system automatically conforms to your back as you move, staying aligned with your spine and keeping your back neutral and supported – without manual adjustments. This encourages mobility, which Herman Miller says is great for boosting creativity and keeps your mind fresh throughout the day.
Layers of Intelligence: The Embody seat is comprised of four different support layers—each with its own set of material properties, and each created with a different manufacturing process, all working together, orienting themselves to your shape with a degree of fidelity so high they even accommodate pockets. These layers were designed for airflow, keeping you cool and comfortable as you sit.
Pixelated Support: You feel Embody’s Pixelated Support the moment you sit down—a sense that you are floating, yet perfectly balanced. Thanks to a dynamic matrix of pixels, Embody’s seat and back surfaces automatically conform to your body’s micro-movements, distributing your weight evenly as you sit. This reduces pressure and encourages movement, both of which are key to maintaining healthy circulation and focus.
While the Embody is no doubt a bit pricey for a chair, it’s a solid, all-around fantastic desk chair for back support and pain relief – and if we ever get the chance, we’ll be upgrading our office.

My Bookstore: Writers Celebrate their Favorite Places to Browse, Read, and Shop edited by Ronald Rice and Booksellers Across America; introduction by Richard Russo; afterword by Emily St. John Mandel; illustrations by Leif Parsons.(NY: Black Dog and Leventhal Publishers, distributed by Workman Pub., 2012).
"In My Bookstore: Writers Celebrate Their Favorite Places to Browse, Read, and Shop, you’ll read some of our greatest authors’ stories about the pleasure, guidance, and support that their favorite bookstores and booksellers have given them over the years. The relationship between a writer and his or her local store and staff can last for years or even decades. Often it’s the author’s local store that supported him during the early days of his career, that continues to introduce and hand-sell her work to new readers, and that serves as the anchor for the community in which he lives and works.
There are about 30,000 bookstores in the U.S., so a list of 80 will by necessity leave out a lot of wonderful bookstores. However, this collection highlights some great ones, including New Hampshire's own Toadstool Bookshop, Peterborough and one of my personal favorites, D.C.'s Politics and Prose.
If you are looking for a gift for a book-lover who likes to travel, this volume might be just the thing.

This year, InnovAge is proud to partner with the Alliance for Health Policy (AHP) for their series of discussions on aging in America. One of our key areas of focus at InnovAge is to educate policy makers and others about the Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) and the role it can play in supporting our aging population.
Through our efforts in recent months, we’ve heard some common themes and questions. I’d like to take a moment to address some of these misconceptions about PACE and share how InnovAge plans to raise awareness of this vital program on a national scale.
Many participants in the Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly receive Medicare and Medicaid benefits. Most pay little or nothing out-of-pocket. Medicare and Medicaid are payer models – meaning they help to pay for healthcare bills after you visit doctors and pharmacies. InnovAge is also a payer, but we are much more than a payment method. We are also a provider of care.
centers where they receive wrap-around medical care as well as transportation to and from their medical appointments. PACE also offers social activities designed for older adults that foster a sense of belonging and connectedness among participants. Many develop lasting friendships through the program – choosing to celebrate holidays, birthdays, and even weddings at their center. Visit any InnovAge PACE center, hear stories of participants and caregivers who see PACE as a lifeline for them and their families, and you’ll soon see the value of broadening the PACE umbrella across this country.
PACE is a different way to think about aging, and InnovAge is a different way to think about PACE. Since the first center opened in California in the 1970s, the program has grown to serve approximately 45,000 seniors in 31 states. There is a tremendous opportunity – and a need – to reach the 1.7 million seniors who are potentially eligible for the program. Most PACE providers aren’t equipped to grow. InnovAge’s model allows us to operate PACE centers across geographies, scaling the program to serve hundreds of seniors in each of our centers – all while maintaining the highest quality of care for those we serve.
We are actively working to educate policy makers and spread awareness about PACE with new initiatives and partnerships, like the one we have with Alliance for Health Policy. InnovAge will be at AHP’s upcoming summit on Oct. 10 and its congressional briefing on Dec. 7. Both events are open to the public. For more information and to register, visit allhealthpolicy.org.
The Alliance for Health Policy is a nonpartisan, non-profit organization dedicated to helping policymakers and the public better understand health policy, the root of the nation’s health care issues, and the trade-offs posed by various proposals for change.
Read other blog posts by President and CEO Maureen Hewitt, including “The Case for PACE,” and explore our website for more information about InnovAge, our center locations, and the benefits of coordinated healthcare.

Masala Omelette, cooked with onions, tomatoes, chillies, turmeric powder and coriander leaves add a much-appreciated oomph to regular omelettes.
This is an easy, everyday pancake. It just takes 5 minutes to make the batter, and another 10-15 minutes to cook and serve them. Loaded with the sweetness of dates, and crunchiness of almonds, this pancake is going to win over your breakfast audience. They are sweet and moist that you can serve them without any syrup.
I have been asked why my posts are always about chicken, meat, fish or seafood. They ask “Do you not eat (or cook) any vegetables?”. The answer is “yes, I do.” In fact, while growing up, for every meal, my mom used to serve two vegetable based curries. Even now, we have at least one vegetable dish included in our lunch and dinner meals. But, for me, the “hero” in all those meals has been the protein, which is the aforesaid chicken, meat or fish. That’s why I almost, always, post these “hero” recipes.
Next time you feel like having a cheesecake, make (not bake) it at home. This recipe will help you make a refreshing no-bake strawberry cheesecake in no time. With all the ingredients ready, which isn’t many, you can make this cheesecake in 15 mins. For best results, leave it in the fridge for at least 5-6 hours before serving.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that a company protect machine operators and anyone who might be in the vicinity of hazards associated with the operation of those machines.� Potential hazards exist at points of operation, in-going nip points, and wherever there are rotating parts, flying chips or sparks.
Machine safeguards should be installed and maintained to prevent contact, and be secure enough that they cannot be easily removed or tampered with. Safeguards should not only protect machine operators, but keep objects from falling into moving parts.� Take care that the safeguard does not impede the worker from doing his job, or create a new hazard.� It should be possible to lubricate or maintain the machine without removing the safeguard.
Feeding and ejection processes that eliminate the handling of machine parts in the hazard zone.
Workplace accidents result in lost productivity, loss of employee morale, and sometimes in lawsuits.� Avoid accidents by installing and maintaining appropriate safeguards, and by creating and enforcing safety procedures.

While the overall economy remains sluggish, it’s boom time in the shady business of identity theft.
There are more than 10 million victims of identity theft each year, and the Identity Theft Resource Center  predicts that rising unemployment will drive more people to commit identity fraud in 2010. The organization predicts that, while online scams will persist, more thieves will turn to low-tech methods such as stealing Social Security numbers, dumpster diving or “phishing” for credit card numbers.
Criminals will also take advantage of increasing unemployment rates by tricking people who are searching for job listings. The fake job listings and work-at-home scams will eventually end with the job seeker providing a Social Security number or other personal information to criminals. The thieves will then use the information to open new accounts or tap into existing ones.
Terry McConnell, Personal Lines Underwriting manager at ERIE, says that identity theft is “trending upward” with criminals using Social Security numbers and other personal information to set up false accounts or access lines of credit.
“Once that happens, they are on the way to ruining your credit rating,” he adds.
Consumers can take preventative measures by shredding documents, being wary of sharing personal information online or over the phone, and not using Social Security numbers as passwords. Yet, with widespread security breaches becoming increasingly common, there’s no surefire way to guarantee your identity won’t be stolen.
Fortunately, ERIE Customers can fight back and protect their identities by adding an affordable Identity Recovery endorsement to their homeowners insurance coverage.
If you become a victim of identity theft, ERIE’s identity restoration experts work to “get you back to where you were before your identity was fraudulently used,” McConnell says.
“They know exactly what to do and can stop the bleeding very quickly,” McConnell says.
Identity recovery experts handle a complex process that can be overwhelming for consumers who lack the coverage. The Federal Trade Commission estimates that, for individuals, the recovery process could take about 500 hours and cost $3,000.
Specifically, if you have ERIE’s Identity Recovery coverage and someone steals your identity, experts will quickly work to track down any instance in which your name was fraudulently used. They then work with credit agencies, financial institutions, government offices, and credit card companies to clear your good name. The coverage also includes up to $25,000 in reimbursement for fraudulent use of credit cards. ERIE Customers with homeowners insurance can add the endorsement for a low annual fee.
Customers with the coverage can report suspected identity theft by calling ERIE’s Identity Recovery Hotline at 1-866-ERIENOW.
Contact Nelles Insurance Solutions today to have Identity Recovery coverage added to your ERIE policy today.

Account in the Glendale Monitor reports on Tom's visit to the local school while he was on leave from duty at Fort Huachuca. The note at the top was written by Mrs. Richardson to Tom's mother, Ada. Ada Turner worked and catered for the Richardson's and other families in Glendale.
Article in The Apache Sentinel features Tom as one of the post's "outstanding athletes." It mentions a win in Nogales, Mexico and also gives a couple of lines to Tom's sister, Hattie, who was a 1944 national track and field champion and held the world's record for the women's discus and baseball throws.

I became a lover of Apple products in late 2002 after getting frustrated with my SUSE Linux setup that just wouldn’t work the way I wanted it too. I had already sworn, and with very good reason, never to use a Windows system again and Linux seemed like the perfect choice. Unfortunately, Linux never lived up to its promise, although it is starting to now… My Ubuntu 10 laptop is working near perfectly.
What attracted me to Linux was the nature of the Free Software movement and a commitment to openness. Values, I think, we as a society should consider fundamental to our future hopes and goals.
No-one I presume wants to live in a totalitarian, or at the least, a very highly controlled world, except of course the ones of us out there who control or would control such a state of affairs or the very religious.
The following article (available at: http://www.newsweek.com/2008/05/01/a-killer-product.html) considers the future of the Internet and what it might become if we, the Internets users, don’t take responsibility for what has so far made the world more open for everybody, the Internet.
My inspiration for this post is Jonathan Zittrain, professor of Internet Law at Harvard Law School.
Will closed devices like Apple’s iPhone murder the Web?
If you say that the iPhone is the greatest invention of your lifetime, few would bat an eye. If you stay up all night playing Halo 3 like some deranged supermarathoner bent on blasting strangers a continent away on your Xbox Live, few would question your sanity. But dare to claim that devices like the iPhone and the Xbox are killing the Internet as we know it, you’d be laughed out of town. But this is the central argument of a new book, “The Future of the Internet–and How to Stop It.” Jonathan Zittrain claims that the very thing that makes the Internet great–its “generative” or innovative nature–is being locked down in a new wave of closed devices like the iPhone, Xbox, TiVo and the OnStar system. Zittrain, cofounder of Harvard Law School’s Berkman Center for Internet and Society, claims the Internet’s ability to serve as an open platform for innovation is being undermined by these “tethered” toys that can’t be easily modified by anyone except their vendors or selected partners. “The Internet has been a collective hallucination,” says Zittrain, who is also a professor of Internet governance and regulation at Oxford University. Zittrain spoke recently with NEWSWEEK’s Brian Braiker about his qualms with Apple, Facebook applications, spam and government filtering.
Excerpts: NEWSWEEK: There seem to be a bunch of books coming out attempting to grapple with where the Internet is heading and what it’s doing to us.
Jonathan Zittrain: I certainly think this is a particularly fertile time to be thinking about the future of the Internet. From my point of view, it’s because we are racing to embrace a number of new technologies that could greatly change the way the system could be regulated.
NW: You’re talking about the threat to the generative quality of the Internet.
JZ: Correct. Through historical accident, we’ve ended up with a global network that pretty much allows anybody to communicate with anyone else at any time. Devices could be reprogrammed by them at any time, including code written by other people, so you don’t have to be a nerd to get the benefits of reprogramming it. [But] this is an historical accident. Now, I see a movement away from that framework–even though it doesn’t feel like a movement away. [For example,] an iPhone can only be changed by Steve Jobs or soon, with the software development kit, by programmers that he personally approves that go through his iPhone apps store. Or whimsical applications that run on the Facebook platform or the new Google apps. These are controllable by their vendors in ways that Bill Gates never dreamed of controlling Windows applications.
But Bill Gates has total control, doesn’t he?
No he doesn’t. That’s the ironic thing. Bill Gates is Mr. Proprietary. But for my purposes, even under the standard Windows operating system from 1990, 1991, you write the code, you can hand it to somebody else and they can run it. Bill Gates has nothing to say about it. So it’s funny to think that by moving in Steve Jobs’s direction it actually ends up far more proprietary.
obs is notorious for creating a very closed ecosystem of products that include the iPod and iPhone.
Apple isn’t the only company you’re critical of. You also take Facebook to task. What are they doing wrong?
Facebook is doing what comes naturally. I don’t blame them at all. But in the big picture, they’re developing a platform where–again, quite naturally–they’re retaining the right just in case they need it to kill any app they don’t like and to control the flow of data.

Main Title Aluminum, Copper, and Nonferrous Metals Forming and Metal Powders Pretreatment Standards: A Guidance Manual.
The National Pretreatment Program establishes an overall strategy for controlling the introduction of nondomestic wastes to publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) in accordance with the overall objectives of the Clean Water Act. The manual provides guidance to POTWs on the implementation and enforcement of the categorical pretreatment standards for the aluminum forming, copper forming, and nonferrous metals forming and metal powders categories. This guidance is based primarily on two sources: Federal Register notices, which contain the official announcements of the categorical standards, and the final development documents for aluminum forming, copper forming, and nonferrous metals forming and metal powders categories, which provide a summary of the technical support for the regulations.

You can change the origin by click dragging the upper node, this is only possible in Tiled mode.
You can change the size and ratio by click-dragging the lower node. There’s no way to constrain the ratio in on-canvas editing, this is only possible in Original and Tiled mode.
First there are the Pattern options.

Finn O’Driscoll is to step down as chief executive of private equity-backed soft drinks manufacturer Clearly Drinks, following a period of exceptional growth at the Sunderland-based business.
Since joining the company in February 2016, Finn has overseen considerable expansion for Clearly Drinks. Bolstered by the signing of numerous major contracts with high street retailers and supermarkets, the company has seen double-digit turnover growth in each of the last two years, with the business now producing in excess of 85 million bottles per year.
Finn was also integral in helping the business secure investment from private equity house NorthEdge Capital in April 2017. Since then, Clearly Drinks has invested heavily in its Sunderland factory and equipment, creating 30 new jobs to push headcount past 100.
Last month, the company completed a bolt-on acquisition of the IP and distribution rights for the Powerful Water Company (POW), which will enable the business to expand its offering to include a focus on delivering healthier functional beverages.
Clearly Drinks is a soft drinks manufacturer and bottler operating in the fast-growing flavoured sugar-free spring water sector. The company specialises in sugar-free products, with brands including Perfectly Clear, 1870 Mixers and Northumbria Spring, all of which are sourced from the firm’s on-site spring.
Finn will retain a stake in the business, as well as continuing to act as an advisor to Clearly Drinks until the end of the year.
Finn O’Driscoll said: “The last two and a half years has been an incredible journey, both for Clearly Drinks and myself. From accessing financial backing for expansion to our first strategic acquisition last month, the business has been through a significant period of development.
Nicola McQuaid, investment manager at NorthEdge, said: “Finn has been the driving force behind the success of Clearly Drinks in the last two and a half years. His intimate knowledge of the sector has enabled the business to secure lucrative new contracts, which has had a direct result both on the financial growth of the company and the local jobs market.
