Q: Bring JFrame window to the front Obviously, this question already exists here. And over here someone answered it similarly. However, I tried both approaches (as I pointed out) and neither seems to work for me. I'm on Java 8 Update 22 on Windows 10, whereas the poster on that last post is not on Windows and on Java 7, so maybe one of these things has something to do with it. Code I have tried, where getInstance() is my JFrame object:
private static void bringToFront() {
    getInstance().setVisible(true);
    getInstance().setExtendedState(JFrame.NORMAL);
    getInstance().toFront();
    getInstance().repaint();
}

And taken from this answer.
private static void bringToFront() {
    getInstance().setVisible(true);
    getInstance().toFront();
    getInstance().requestFocus();
    getInstance().repaint();
}

@Override
public void toFront() {
    int sta = super.getExtendedState() & ~JFrame.ICONIFIED & JFrame.NORMAL;

    super.setExtendedState(sta);
    super.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
    super.toFront();
    super.requestFocus();
    super.setAlwaysOnTop(false);
}

Note that I do not want the window to always stay on top. However, with that last snippet it does stay on top.
EDIT: I now realise it doesn't always stay on top. The problem is that it the window appears on top at first, but doesn't have focus (the icon in the task bar is flickering), meaning that if a user clicks somewhere else than the window the window will stay on top because it isn't "losing focus", as it didn't have any to begin with. I tried requestFocus() but that didn't work either. Probably because of this explanation. How can I make sure the window has focus on initial pop-up?

I tried mKorbel's solution, but that didn't work either. It works only when the window has already appeared and has been activated, and de-activated and when then the method is called, the window comes to the front. However, when first initialising the window, it doesn't show up to the front.
private static void bringToFront() {
    getInstance().setVisible(true);
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            getInstance().toFront();
        }
    });
    getInstance().requestFocus();
    getInstance().repaint();
}

A: This is what I use below.
Warning: YMMV! I don't guarantee at all that it will work and if it does it might not work on another OS, a different version of the same OS, on your version of JAVA, or when Saturn aligns with Jupiter, etc etc.
Here goes:
private void hackyToFront( )
{
    // What follows is a hack to make sure that the frame is put to front and activated.
    // Simply calling setVisible( true ) and toFront( ) is not enough.

    SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable( )
    {
        @Override
        public void run( )
        {
            if( !isVisible( ) )
                setVisible( true );
            setExtendedState( JFrame.NORMAL );
            toFront( );
            setAlwaysOnTop( true );
            try
            {
                final Point oldMouseLocation = MouseInfo.getPointerInfo( ).getLocation( );

                // simulate a mouse click on title bar of window
                Robot robot = new Robot( );
                robot.mouseMove( getX( ) + 100, getY( ) + 10 );
                robot.mousePress( InputEvent.BUTTON1_DOWN_MASK );
                robot.mouseRelease( InputEvent.BUTTON1_DOWN_MASK );

                // move mouse to old location
                robot.mouseMove( (int) oldMouseLocation.getX( ), (int) oldMouseLocation.getY( ) );
            }
            catch( Exception ex )
            {}
            finally
            {
                setAlwaysOnTop( false );
            }
        }
    } );
}

A: Possible solution:
private static void bringToFront() {
   getInstance().setVisible(true);
   getInstance().setFocusable(true);
   getInstance().requestFocus();
}


Wherever I go, I seek out second-hand bookshops for little gems full of information.
For £4, I picked up a book called The Gardener's Folklore, by Margaret Baker, originally published in the US in 1977 (there are second-hand versions available on the internet).
It's a fascinating read of old wives' tales, magic and country superstitions from all over the world – or are they?
There are interviews with elderly farmers and gardeners on both sides of the Atlantic, with memories reaching back into the 19th century.
There's a remarkable amount of similarity in the odd growing rituals all over the world.
It's fascinating to see whether these practices have any scientific basis behind them – you'd think if they didn't work, people would stop doing them.
1. Tomatoes and marigolds: Ward off whitefly.
2. Basil and tomatoes: The herb attracts greenfly and other aphids away from the fruits.
3. Borage, balm, and tomatoes: The herbs are beneficial to the fruits. Tomatoes keep better if grown near stinging nettles.
4. Outdoor tomatoes and asparagus: Both benefit from each other's company.
5. Sweetcorn, squash, and beans: The traditional Native American Indian growing system, known as the Three Sisters. The runner beans grow up the sweetcorn stalks keeping them off the ground; the beans attract beneficial insects that prey on pests. The squash acts as a living mulch and spiny varieties deter predators.
6. Radishes and spinach: Radishes attract leaf miners away from spinach. The radish roots are unharmed, so this is a perfect pairing.
7. Roses and chives/garlic: The alliums repels pests that eat rose petals.
8. Tomatoes, dill, and brassicas: Tomatoes repel the diamondback moth larvae, which eat cabbage leaves. Grow tomatoes around the cabbage patch. Any brassica helps keep dill upright, which attracts tiny beneficial wasps that control cabbage pests.
9. Potatoes and sweet alyssum: Sweet alyssum's tiny perfumed flowers attract many beneficial insects. Plant it on top and around potatoes – the tubers grow pest-free underneath.
10. Cucumbers and nasturtiums: Nasturtiums are edible and one of the biggest pest attractors. Insects flock to them and ignore cucumbers.
I'm not saying this is wise, or maybe the weather was better between the wars, but The Gardener's Folklore mentions an age-old tradition in County Durham of planting potatoes on Good Friday – a rare break in the working man's year and a holy day.
There are also many superstitions surrounding parsley, with Good Friday the only day you can transplant it without bringing death on the family, according to Pennsylvania Germans.
Some people swear by sowing with the phases of the moon. This may seem nonsense, but I thought I'd give it a go.
I usually sow tomato and pepper seeds in mid-February, as I've got a heated propagator and a grow lamp when they germinate.
If you're using a windowsill, wait until March when the days have lengthened a bit. Leggy seedlings are worse than useless.
According to The Gardener's Folklore, the majority of horticulturalists sowing with the moon do so on a "waxing" moon (getting bigger, towards full).
A Dr Kolisko studied the effect of the moon on plant growth and confirmed in 1936 that the best time to plant seeds was 48 hours before a full moon.

Acura are back to the track with the NSX GT3
by James • May 31, 2016 • Feature • Comments (0) • 8091
Acura have taken the wraps off its NSX GT3 racecar announcing its intention to campaign the twin-turbocharged NSX starting in 2017. The NSX is currently undergoing testing and slated for homologation as an FIA GT3 class racecar in 2016. The first NSX GT3 prototype was tested by the European JAS Motorsport team.
The NSX GT3 has been designed to FIA GT3 regulations. This means we shouldn't expect to see it competing at Le Mans against the new Ford GT (GTE Spec). However it will be in prime position to take on championships like the Pirelli World Challenge, Blancpain Endurance Series, and even the lower GT300 class of Japan's own Super GT series.
The Acura NSX GT3 features custom bodywork and aero components including a large deck wing spoiler, underbody diffuser and enlarged hood vents for efficient engine cooling. The NSX GT3 will be powered by a 3.5-liter, 75-degree, twin turbocharged DOHC V-6 engine using the same design specifications as the engine in the production 2017 Acura NSX, including the block, heads, valvetrain, crankshaft, pistons and dry sump lubrication system. The engine will be paired with a 6-speed, sequential-shift racing gearbox, delivering power to the rear wheels.
The NSX GT3 will utilize the production NSX's ultra-rigid and lightweight multi-material body with aluminum-intensive space frame, which will be produced by the Performance Manufacturing Center in Ohio, the manufacturing home for the new Acura NSX.
Development of the NSX GT3 was conducted by the race engineering arm of Honda with testing on race circuits in Europe and Japan. However additional development, testing and final homologation to FIA GT3 global racing specifications are being undertaken by the company's North American race engineering group, Honda Performance Development (HPD), in Santa Clarita, California.
"The NSX was designed as a pinnacle expression of Acura Precision Crafted Performance, and we're looking forward to proving out its ultimate performance capabilities in GT3 racing," said Art St. Cyr, president of Honda Performance Development. "We'll be working with the NSX engineering teams in Ohio and Japan to bring our dream of a truly world-class new Acura NSX racecar to fruition."
The Acura NSX GT3 car will join a rich legacy of Acura sports car racing campaigns and championships, including the 1991, 1992 and 1993 IMSA Camel Lights manufacturer and driver championships, and the 2009 American Le Mans manufacturer, driver and team championships in both the LMP1 and LMP2 classes. Acura currently campaigns a pair of TLX GT cars with Real Time Racing in the Pirelli World Challenge.

Uber Developing A Self-Driving Electric Scooters And Bicycles
By Larry On Jan 21, 2019
Uber a popular ride-hailing service, is said to be developing a self-driving electric scooter and bicycle. The company was reported to be hiring engineers for the self-driving project. It is planning on developing electric scooters and bicycles that are capable of driving themselves.
The company announced on Saturday that it had begun hiring a "micro-mobility robotics" team to develop scooters and bicycles which could drive themselves to the charging points. It noted via an online hiring page that it plans to improve safety, rider experience, and operational efficiency of its shared electric scooters and bicycles through the application of sensing and robotics technologies."
Uber's self-driving car division was temporarily shut down last year after a fatal accident. The company was granted permission to resume testing back in December.

Surprise surprise, the iPad's split keyboard includes "invisible" keys.
In Tiger, Leopard, and Snow Leopard, when you used the Zoom with Scroll Wheel function, the screen would move with the mouse staying in the center. This was the default behavior. Now, in Lion, the default has been changed, and the screen will only move when zoomed in when the mouse pointer reaches the edge of the viewing area.
Most of us are used to the default method in earlier versions of OS X, where the screen moved to keep the mouse in the center.
I had never actually bothered change the Zoom with Scroll Wheel's options. But now that Lion's default zoon behavior is unusable to many, changing the behavior is easy.


What is 'the workshop' of a philosopher? Properly speaking, his workshop is the philosopher's own mind. Broadly speaking, it is the philosopher's desk, library or study-room. In our case, the philosopher's workshop is a virtual space that aims at becoming a meeting place for scholars and interested people where we all can bring together scholarly reflections, insights, research tools and investigations about the philosopher and polymath Roger Bacon (c.1214-1292), Master of Arts and Franciscan Friar, definitely one of the most controversial, innovative, and surprising intellectual figures of the Middle Ages.
The virtual workshop has three main missions: to research, inform, and share knowledge on Roger Bacon. As a free instrument of RESEARCH, available to all users, the virtual workshop provides an electronic resource entirely dedicated to scholarly research in the life, thought and writings of Roger Bacon; an integrated global access to texts that are currently out of print and in public domain; a fully searchable database of the manuscript transmission of Bacon's works, which can support title-based and manuscript-based researches; and a bibliography of Bacon's life, works, legacy, with direct links to studies and materials in public domain.
As a system of INFORMATION, it provides a regularly updated page of news and events concerning Roger Bacon (conferences, seminars, publications, projects, etc); an integrated system of links to social networks where discussions and news can be broadly disseminated; and a subscription to a dedicated newsletter.
Finally, as SHARING PLACE, the virtual workshop aims at becoming a reference point for facilitating the circulation of news and initiatives on Roger Bacon. All users are indeed strongly invited to send here info on events, publications, research projects, initiatives on Roger Bacon.

Astronomical observations in the visible range are a constant bet against the weather. One can do good science only if specific criteria are met. However, despite being a waste of valuable time at the telescope, adverse conditions often give us incredible scenery, especially at sunset and sunrise. Here I show a photo taken during a cloudy sunset I witnessed during one of my observing run at the New Technology Telescope (NTT), at La Silla in Chile: the Sun painted this "oil on canvas".

Geoffroy de Briel, dans la littérature ancienne Geoffroy de Bruyères, ( 1223 – 1275) est un chevalier franc, troisième seigneur de la baronnie de Karytaina en principauté d'Achaïe (Grèce franque). Il mène une vie haute en couleur et mouvementée, narrée dans la Chronique de Morée. Considéré comme le meilleur chevalier de la principauté, il participe aux guerres qui l'opposent à l'Empire byzantin. Capturé à la bataille de Pélagonia en 1259, il est renvoyé en Achaïe en 1261 pour transmettre les conditions posées par les Byzantins pour la conclusion d'un traité. Geoffroy est privé à deux reprises de sa baronnie : la première fois pour s'être rebellé contre son oncle, le prince d'Achaïe Guillaume II de Villehardouin ; la deuxième fois pour avoir abandonné la principauté sans permission afin de retrouver sa maitresse, la femme de l'un de ses vassaux, en Italie. Pardonné les deux fois, il doit désormais considérer son titre comme un cadeau du prince. Il meurt sans descendance en 1275, et la baronnie de Karýtena est divisée.

Origines
Geoffroy est le fils d'Hugues de Briel et d'Alix de Villehardouin, fille du prince d'Achaïe Geoffroy  de Villehardouin. La famille, originaire de Briel-sur-Barse en Champagne, est désignée sous divers noms selon les sources : Brieres ou Prieres ( or  en grec), Bruières, Briers, Briel ou Brielle. Le père de Geoffroy hérite de la baronnie de Karýtena vers 1222 de son frère, Renaud de Briel. Il s'agit de la troisième baronnie de la principauté en taille après celles d'Akova et Patras. Elle compte 22 fiefs de chevaliers et est responsable de surveiller les habitants séditieux de la zone montagneuse de la Skorta.

Baron de Karýtena et révolte contre Guillaume de Villehardouin

Geoffroy est né en Grèce, possiblement à Karýtena, peu après l'arrivée de son père (vers 1222-1223). Hugues de Briel meurt au début de l'année 1238, avant sa quarantième année, et le jeune Geoffroy lui succède. Les principales sources sur la vie de Geoffroy sont les diverses versions de la Chronique de Morée, qui selon les mots de l'historien Antoine Bon,« raconte avec tant de détails et de complaisance les multiples et pittoresques aventures » d'une « figure curieuse, attachante, très représentative de la génération des seigneurs francs nés en Grèce ». Selon la Chronique, Geoffroy fait bâtir le château de Karýtena, la « Tolède grecque » comme la qualifie l'historien William Miller. Il jouit par ailleurs d'une excellente réputation comme guerrier, réputé être l'« un des meilleurs chevaliers de Morée ». D'après la version aragonaise de la Chronique, il entretient une école de chevalerie au château de Karýtena où les fils des nobles grecs sont formés à la manière occidentale.

Geoffroy épouse Isabelle de la Roche, fille du duc d'Athènes Guy I de la Roche. En 1256–1258, il est impliqué dans la Guerre de succession de Négrepont, d'abord comme lieutenant de son oncle, le prince Guillaume II de Villehardouin. Il commande une armée qui dévaste l'Eubée et récupère la ville de Négrepont pour le compte du prince. Plus tard, il rejoint son beau-père Guy de la Roche et les autres seigneurs francs qui s'opposent aux ambitions hégémoniques de Guillaume. Ce dernier cependant s'impose à la bataille du mont Karydi en 1258 ; un parlement est alors réuni à Nikli pour juger les seigneurs vaincus. Geoffroy obtient le pardon du prince et ses terres confisquées lui sont rendues, mais cette fois comme une concession personnelle plutôt qu'un fief gagné par sa conquête.

Bataille de Pélagonia, captivité puis séjour en Italie

En 1259, Geoffroy fait partie de l'armée princière qui rejoint l'alliance achaïo-épiro-sicilienne s'opposant à l'Empire de Nicée. Les forces alliées, minées par la méfiance entre les Latins et les Grecs d'Épire, sont écrasées à la bataille de Pélagonia. Le prince Guillaume et la plupart de ses barons, dont Geoffroy, sont capturés à la suite de la bataille.

Ils restent en captivité jusqu'en 1261, quand, après la prise de Constantinople par les Grecs nicéens, l'empereur Michel VIII Paléologue propose de les relâcher en échange d'un serment de fidélité et la cession de forteresses dans le sud-est de la Morée. Guillaume accepte ; Geoffroy est alors relâché afin de transmettre les propositions de l'empereur aux nobles de la principauté. Un parlement est réuni une nouvelle fois à Nikli, en présence de Geoffroy, Guy de la Roche et du chancelier de la principauté, Léonard de Veroli. Cette assemblée est connue sous le nom de « Parlement des Dames », les seigneurs captifs étant représentés par leurs épouses. Le parlement accepte les termes de l'empereur : Geoffroy livre alors les châteaux aux Grecs et retourne à Constantinople avec plusieurs otages, permettant la libération du prince Guillaume et de ses barons.

La reddition des forteresses inaugure une longue période de conflit entre les Grecs de l'Empire byzantin reconstitué et les forces de la principauté contrôlant la Morée. Le prince Guillaume est délié par le pape de ses serments envers l'empereur, et la guerre commence dès son retour sur ses terres. Malgré cette situation précaire, Geoffroy s'absente de Morée, sans permission de Guillaume, et passe les années 1263 à 1265 en Italie, officiellement en pèlerinage, mais en réalité, il vit avec la femme d'un de ses vassaux, Jean de Katavas. Son absence permet aux habitants de la Skorta de se soulever et d'aider les troupes byzantines dans leur offensive. Cette dernière est stoppée par le même Jean de Katavas à la bataille de Prinitza. Geoffroy est à nouveau privé de sa baronnie pour cet acte, mais il est pardonné et restauré dans son fief à son retour.

Dernières années et mort
Geoffroy est mentionné à nouveau dans les campagnes du début des années 1270, quand Michel VIII Paléologue envoie un nouveau commandant en Morée, Alexis Doukas Philanthropène. En 1270, Geoffroy et son voisin, le baron d'Akova, se joignent à l'armée princière avec 150 cavaliers et 200 hommes d'infanterie. La force latine mène des raids dans les possessions byzantine de Laconie, mais Philanthropène évite d'être entraîné dans une bataille rangée. S'ensuit une période de paix relative, due au deuxième concile de Lyon, mais en 1275, la trêve mutuelle est rompue par les Grecs. Le prince Guillaume confie une force de 50 cavaliers et 200 archers à Geoffroy, qui les stationne de manière à surveiller les défilés de la Skorta, mais il meurt de dysenterie à la fin de l'année 1275. Après sa mort, la baronnie de Karýtena subit les attaques des Byzantins et leur revient finalement en 1320.

Geoffroy meurt sans enfant. La baronnie, obtenue par concession et n'étant héritable que par un descendant direct de Geoffroy, est divisée à sa mort : une moitié reste à sa veuve, Isabelle de la Roche, qui épouse Hugues de Brienne, avant sa mort en 1279, et l'autre revient au domaine princier. Deux prétendants à l'héritage de Geoffroy apparaissent dans les années suivantes : un certain Jean Pestel, qui n'aboutit à rien, et le neveu de Geoffroy, Geoffroy le Jeune, qui après beaucoup d'obstination arrive à obtenir le fief de Moraina.

Clean the fish and wipe dry with kitchen papers. Wipe the inside of the fish with some coarse salt, leaving the bady cavities clean. Remove any gills or long spices with kitchen scissors. Wash fish well and cut diagonal slashes in the flesh with a sharp kitchen knife. Rub the fish with a little lemon juice, salt, pepepr and turmeric. Use a food processor to blend the remaining ingredients until a smooth paste. Apply the mixture to the fish, rubbing well into the slashes and bady cavity. Spoon the remaining mixture over the fish. Place the fish in the banana leaves and wrap to make a neat parcel. Place over a heated griller for 10 minutes on each side. Open the parcel for the last few minutes to allow excess moisture to escape. Serve with steamed white rice with some accompaniments.

Elisabeth Murdoch's Big Payday
Elisabeth Murdoch received $214M in cash from the sale of her Shine Ltd. Television production company to News Corp., which is helmed by her father Rupert.
She continues as Shine's CEO, receiving a $1.7M annual salary. News Corp. had various production deals with Shine worth $4.1M during the past year.
The media combined paid $480M for Shine, which includes $60M put aside in escrow to satisfy any indemnification obligations, according to News Corp.'s proxy statement. That deal closed in April.
Elisabeth was to join News Corp.'s board of directors, but that plan has been put on hold. Last month, she decided that it would be inappropriate to join the board at its annual meeting in Los Angeles in October. The company's independent directors agreed that her planned nomination to the board should be delayed.
Freud Communications, which is headed by Elisabeth's husband, Matthew, received $202K from News Corp. for press and publicity work during the fiscal 2011 ended June.
News Corp. called in Edelman to handled fallout from the hacking scandal.
Former News of the World legal affairs manager Tom Crone told a parliamentary hearing today that he is "certain" that James Murdoch was aware of an email saying that more than one "rogue reporter" was involved in the hacking scandal.
James Murdoch, who heads News Corp.'s European operations and serves as deputy COO of the company, testified in July that he was not aware of that email.

Bush's values Lack Plausible Christian Morale
by publicationarchive
Some have said this November's presidential election is the mostimportant election of our lifetime. I know why it's important for me- I want Bush out of office. But for many supporting him, thestakes surely seem just as important.
Many people fervently support him because of the supposedChristian values he brings to the White House. But does Bush reallyuphold the Christian values many people hold so dear? I tend todisagree.
I will not claim to be an expert on the Bible, and I haven't beena practicing Christian since I was a child. Yet, I know enough to seethat going to church and saying you're a Christian doesn't make youone. Wearing your religion on your sleeve doesn't make you areligious leader.
One of the most common themes referenced from the Bible is "an eyefor an eye, a tooth for a tooth." Many conservatives may use thisidea to defend going into war and defending our country againstterrorist threats. This idea cannot be used to explain pre-emptivestrikes. An "eye for an eye" notion only allows enactment for apunishment on someone that matches the crime.
The death of thousands of innocent people not involved in harmingour nation cannot be seen as a Christian way of thinking – notto mention the more than 1,000 Americans who've died defending thisway of thinking. Isaiah 1:10 states, "Woe to those who enact evilstatutes, and those who constantly record unjust decisions."
Jesus went even further in Matthew 5:38 to say, "You have heard itsaid, 'an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,' but I say untoyou, do not resist him who is evil." So if one were to follow theteachings of Jesus, violence would not be used as a response toviolence. Love would be the answer.
A common catch-phrase for Christians is, "What would Jesus do?" Iwonder if Bush asks himself this question before he makes politicaldecisions that will affect the lives of millions, or even billions,of people. I wonder if Jesus would have believed in tax breaks forthe wealthy and a health care system too expensive for the poor toafford.
Many Christians support George Bush because his administrationdoes not support stem-cell research, abortion or teaching about birthcontrol methods in schools. Conclusions on what the writers of theBible intended people to do in these areas are questionable andhighly debated. Does Dubya's conservative outlook on these issuesmake him a Christian? I would certainly hope for more than traditionto prove so.
Should this be the only reason to support a president known mostlyfor sending his troops into a questionable war? What about all thesoldiers who have died because of his reckless decisions? What aboutthe women who might die in back alley abortions if Roe v. Wade isreversed? Does the sanctity of life not apply in those situations?
The religious right also stands behind defending marriage from thedangerous threat of same-sex couples, as Bush has made perfectlyclear. Rather than focusing on strengthening their own marriages,these so-called Christians choose to focus on restricting the rightsof homosexuals. I continue to wonder how hostility and oppression ofa huge group is the most Christian way of thinking, rather thanreaching out with love to reach a compromise.
I know there are many Christians who do not agree with Bush. Ican't sit here and tell Christians that Kerry should be their choicebecause I think Bush is a hypocrite. However, I do think anyonebasing his or her political affiliations on faith should look deeperthan the surface to decide – anyone can go to church and claimto follow the word of God. Making a positive impact on the world in atruly selfless way takes more than faith. Big time, religiouspoliticians making these impacts are hard to find, and they are theones with the most power to do so.

The earliest known burial in Greenville was in 1846 when Nancy Loucks and her infant daughter were interred on the south bank of the Flat River near John Green's first settlement. Their remains were later moved to the new village burial ground on the east side of Greenville. A few years later, still another location was established west of the village on the site now known as Veterans Park. This graveyard was used by area residents until the establishment of Forest Home Cemetery.
The founding of Forest Home Cemetery dates back to September 1871 when
Carpenter C. Merritt's 3-year-old son, Vernie, succumbed to scarlet fever.
Mr. Merritt chose a burial site atop the highest hill of a tract of property
which he owned on the southern edge of town, overlooking three lakes.
Inspired by the parcel's undulating terrain and beautiful vistas, he set out
on a tour of the eastern states' most elegant cemeteries to gather ideas for
the development of his land. Upon his return, Mr. Merritt laid out burial
plots and created walkways and drives throughout the cemetery. Forest Home Cemetery
is believed to be patterned after Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York.
Mr. Merritt promptly assumed the role of Cemetery Superintendent, selling cemetery lots and constantly upgrading the grounds with new trees and plantings. At one time, the cemetery even had its own nursery on the grounds.
In 1873, village officials announced, "The old cemetery will be closed, the donation of four acres of land in the new cemetery having been accepted from C.C. Merritt." The 4-acre parcel was used to rebury the remains from the Old Cemetery which were being moved to the newly developed Forest Home. Over a period of 30 years, Mr. Merritt continued to improve and maintain the cemetery, creating a beautiful final resting place for the area's deceased residents.
To be near the cemetery, Mr. Merritt built his home, "Lakeside" on a high bank
overlooking Manoka Lake and a portion of the cemetery grounds. The home
was destroyed by fire in 1879, but was rebuilt and used as a summer residence
thereafter. Carpenter Merritt died on February 28, 1903, at the age of 63. At his
request, the Knights of Pythias rendered fraternal services, including providing
an honor guard at the Merritt home. And Mayor Fred Ranney requested a
suspension of business during the funeral services for one of Greenville's
"oldest and most honorable citizens."
For a number of years after Mr. Merritt's death, his wife Lina carried on the undertaking business. But she was tragically killed on June 23, 1914, when the car driven by her daughter, Mildred, stalled on the railroad tracks at Hale's crossing, just 1-1/2 miles north of Greenville. The Merritt home at the front of the Cemetery was destroyed by a second fire of unknown origin on December 7, 1914. The home had been unoccupied for some time, but contained a large amount of furniture and valuable paintings of the late Mrs. Merritt.
The City of Greenville acquired the Cemetery in 1917 for a purchase price of $3,000. In 1922, the community mausoleum was built on the site of the old Merritt home. The cemetery has continued to be owned by the City, and 2017 will mark its 100-year anniversary as a municipal cemetery.

Nervous fliers
May 16, 2017 / Chip Wright / Comments Off on Nervous fliers
Not everybody is cut out to fly, and for that matter, not everybody is cut out to be the best passenger. I recently was sitting in the gate house waiting for my airplane to come in when a lady walked up to me and asked me if I was working her flight. When I confirmed that I was, she asked me if I could spend a few minutes talking to her husband, who was a "nervous flier," in her words. I immediately said yes, and she went to get him.
The gentleman in question came over, and we introduced ourselves. He had at one time had no problems flying, but in recent years he had developed a sense of claustrophobia. When I asked him why, he said it was related to having kids, and that being on an airplane made him feel a bit trapped and sometimes not able to respond to his young kids the way he might have at home (for instance, taking them outside to let them run off some energy, or being able to escape outside himself when the kids were behaving, but being rambunctious). He also felt that he had lost some sense of control by placing his life in the hands of others.
As a parent for more than 16 years, I could relate to that, and I told him half-jokingly (but only half) that I'm not the biggest fan of sitting in the cabin when the cockpit is just a few feet away. His wife explained that he had taken a class on dealing with the phobia, and one of the recommended strategies when flying was to try and talk to at least one of the pilots before the flight. Perfectly logical, in my book.
I took a few minutes to talk about our flight, the route, the time, the weather, et cetera. I didn't anticipate our unusually long taxi to the runway, but since I had pointed him out to the lead flight attendant and told the captain about him, I was confident that he would be looked after. He and his family got off before I could say goodbye, but I was told that he appeared to enjoy the ride as much as possible.
Nervous fliers are a fact of life, and they look to pilots not only to comfort them, but also to give them some confidence that we are more than competent. It's important to remember that a passenger in an airplane has given up complete control of his or her well-being to us, and we need to respect that. It's true in general aviation as well, if not more so, because a passenger on a GA airlane can grab the controls and start "fighting back" if he or she perceives that something is amiss.
Not only is it the right thing to do in terms of business, but it's also the compassionate, humane thing to do. We all have fears, some of which are in our face every day, some that aren't. But none of us wants to feel out of control. Information, understanding, and communication often can bridge much of that gap.—Chip Wright

Kari Lake declares victory in Arizona Republican primary for governor

Kari Lake declares victory Wednesday, Aug. 3, 2022 in the Republican gubernatorial primary, insisting she can unite the GOP despite a bruising race with Karrin Taylor Robson.
By Howard Fischer
Capitol Media Services
PHOENIX -- Kari Lake declared victory Wednesday in the Republican gubernatorial primary even as votes were being counted and even as she continued to insist there is evidence of fraud in Arizona elections -- evidence she would not share with the media.
"I'm not going to release it to the fake news,'' she said at a press conference in front of her campaign office. "Why would I release it to a bunch of people who denied there was fraud when there was obviously fraud?''
Instead she vowed to release it to "the authorities.''
Lake late Wednesday had a lead of about 12,000 votes -- less than 2 percentage points -- over Karrin Taylor Robson.
But Lake pointed out she actually was far behind on election night when the only votes counted were from people who had cast their ballots early and by mail.
Lake said it was always her position that her supporters, suspicious of early voting just like both her and Donald Trump, who had endorsed her, would be the people who decided to go to the polls on election day. And those votes are counted later.
That proved to be the case.
As of Wednesday, only about 65% of Lake's votes were cast by early ballot. By contrast, the figure for Robson was nearly 87%/
Still being tallied are the votes of people who did get early ballots but dropped them off on Tuesday at polling places.
Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer said these take time as the signatures need to be compared on envelopes with what the county has on file. Then they need to be scanned into the system.
The results, if they hold, set the stage for what promises to be a pitched battle with Democratic nominee Katie Hobbs. Lake cast the first salvo on Wednesday, blasting Hobbs, who is the secretary of state.
"She ran a horrible election yesterday,'' Lake said.
"She embarrassed the state of Arizona,'' she continued, disregarding that it is officials in each of the 15 counties who actually run the event. "And she wants to take that incompetence that she's shown as secretary of state and move it to the governor's office?''
Hobbs, for her part, is seeking to distinguish herself from Lake -- and Robson -- particularly over the issue of abortion, promising if elected governor to do what she can to keep the practice legal.
That, however, may not be her choice.
Lake pointed out Wednesday that when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade the justices simply sent the issue back to the states. And Arizona has had a law on the books since before statehood that make it a crime for a doctor to terminate a pregnancy other than to save the life of the mother.
Put another way, absent a court ruling voiding the pre-existing law, the new governor will have nothing to say about the issue.
Lake, who has called abortion "the ultimate sin,'' sidestepped the issue of whether her views on abortion are in the mainstream, especially after voters in very Republican Kansas on Tuesday refused to remove protection for the procedure from their state constitution.
"We're going to follow the laws on the books,'' she said.
"If people don't like the laws on the books, then they need to elect representatives who will change the law,'' Lake continued. "I'm running for governor, not God.''
But to defeat Hobbs, Lake acknowledged she will first have to unite the Republican Party after a particularly bruising primary where Taylor called her "fake Lake'' and Lake called Robson a RINO -- a Republican in name only.
On Wednesday, Lake's rhetoric had cooled as she held out an olive branch of sorts.
"I believe that Karrin will come in because I know for a fact that Karrin loves this state,'' she said.
Lake also was reaching out to former Congressman Matt Salmon who quit the race even before early voting began and threw his support behind Robson in a bid to keep Lake from winning the primary. But his name remained on the ballot and he picked up 25,000 votes.
All that still leaves Lake with what has been a central issue for her as it was -- and remains -- for Trump: elections are not conducted fairly.
"I am not satisfied with how the election was run,'' she said.
"We had major issues yesterday, major issues,'' Lake continued. "And they're being reported every day by voters.''
Pressed for specifics, Lake brought up Tim LaSota, her campaign attorney.
"Didn't you hear when happened in Pinal County?'' he said.
That refers to the fact that more than a dozen precincts ran out of ballots.
County officials rushed to print new ones and said anyone who was in line when the polls were set to close at 7 p.m. would be allowed to vote. But that doesn't address the question of how many people, told there were no ballots, simply left and never returned.
Lake spurned questions of whether that simply reflects incompetence versus actual fraud.
"I don't expect, guys, to sit here with the fake news that has denied that we've had issues with our elections, fraud and corruption,'' she said.
"I don't expect to turn you guys around,'' Lake continued. "You're a lost cause.''
She said, however, that Arizona voters "know what's going on.''
"That's why we won,'' she continued. "That's why they showed up. That's why they came out in droves.''
Separately, Lake is a plaintiff along with Republican nominee for secretary of state Mark Finchem in a lawsuit asking a federal judge to disallow the use of automated counting equipment and requiring that ballots be counted by hand. No date has been set for a hearing.
Lake made separate accusations in a Tuesday night speech to supporters decrying election procedures.
"I wish they didn't give us the felt-tipped pens we know we don't like,'' she said, a reference to claims that the markers bleed through ballots or, more recently, that they don't properly record votes.
That became an issue Tuesday as the Maricopa County Attorney's Office sent a cease-and-desist letter to Gail Golec, a candidate for county supervisor, telling her she must stop advising people to steal the felt-tip pens that were being provided at polling places.
In a letter to the Scottsdale resident, Deputy County Attorney Joseph LaRue told her that telling people to steal the pens, specifically recommended for use, "is a deliberate attempt to interfere with election administration.'' And he said it will delay vote tabulation of ballots cast at polling places "as the west ink (from regular pens) harms the vote center tabulation machines.''
For her part, Golec said she was never intending to urge a criminal act.
"I never thought of it that way,'' she told Capitol Media Services. "I did say replace it with a blue pen.''
Golec said she believes the felt-tip pens don't leave a sufficient mark, a move that results in ballots having to go into "adjudication,'' where the ballot is examined and marked in a way they believe reflects the voter's intent -- and not necessarily by election workers but through the use of artificial intelligence.
