UC Berkeley | Saba Mahmood, Associate Professor of Anthropology
"There are few films that have ever captured the sense of dignity and devotion of pious Muslim women as powerfully as The Light in her Eyes. Shot over a period of 3 years in a Syrian mosque school, this film brings us close to the lives of these young women as they learn the fundamentals of Islamic piety and Quranic recitation. Playfully and inventively, these remarkable women talk freely about what it means to live their faith and to balance the religious and secular demands of their urban existence. A rare insight into the informal Islamicization of pre-revolutionary Syria whose force will likely outlast the Assad regime. A must see!"
Bard/Al-Quds University | Stephanie Saldaña, Instructor of Literature, Director of the Core Curriculum, and Author of The Bread of Angels: A Journey to Love and Faith
"The Light in Her Eyes is required viewing for anyone who wants to learn more about Islam, the Middle East, and the surprising ways in which girls and women in Syria are taking hold of their futures and their destinies. Houda al-Habash and the Quranic school for girls that she leads show us a completely different version of women in Islam than that of the headlines: a world in which women are independent, are free to disagree, and are challenged to become leaders in their societies. Yet just as importantly, this film, perhaps more than any before it, helps a general audience to grasp the complexity of the Quran and how it effects the lives of Muslims around the world. They'll witness how it is memorized, recited, debated, internalized…. Finally, an often difficult text can come alive for teachers and students alike. I cannot recommend this film highly enough."
University of Oklahoma | Professor Josh Landis, Director of Center for Middle East Studies
"The Light in Her Eyes is a must see for anyone seeking to understand the cultural context of the Syrian uprising. Islamist militias are the strongest on the ground and Islamist politicians will be powerful in tomorrow's Syria. To understand what Islam means to many middle class Syrians, see this film."
University of Sussex | Hilary Kalmbach, Director of The Middle East and North Africa Centre at Sussex
"The ideas, values, and motivations of the conservative women who teach or attend lessons in mosques are often misunderstood outside of the Middle East. The Light in Her Eyes provides viewers with unparalleled insight into the activities of Syrian mosque instructor Houda al-Habash. It allows the voices of al-Habash and her followers to be heard with unprecedented clarity, highlighting their aspirations, opinions, and concerns. The film succeeds in presenting the complexity of the viewpoints and motivations of these women, making it an invaluable resource for any who want to broaden their understanding of the Middle East and Islam. It is also of particular interest to high school and university instructors who want to challenge student perceptions of Muslim women and their religious practices. Beautifully shot, the film shows the vibrant rhythms and colours of daily life in Damascus immediately before Syria's descent into civil war."

by Inlander Readers & r & & r & Phoenix Rising? & r & Whether one believes that the evolving University District assets be reserved for the traditional academic pursuits of research and instruction, or for the more "creative" ideas proposed by Chris Kelly ("Creative Types," 5/4/06), it is important that the community dialogue be based on fact.
The assertion that "when WSU acquired the property, they threw the market off and essentially killed it," is not accurate. The fiscal agent of the Riverpoint Higher Education Park, as it was then known, was the old Joint Center for Higher Education (JCHE). As a state agency, the JCHE received an attorney general ruling requiring it to charge market rates for any and all leases. The fledgling farmers' market could simply not afford market rates for Division Street frontage. WSU did not own the property until a legislative change was made two years later.
Paul Haeder's article on "Reclaiming History" describes an interesting array of alternative development scenarios for the University District. A rehabbed Jensen-Byrd building could be part of most any campus development plan. One need not go clear to Faneuil Hall to see classic renovation. The University of Washington's Tacoma Campus is built in old warehouses in the downtown area. It is an exceptionally well-done project, housing several thousand students and anchoring downtown renovation.
I hope that in our zeal for creative class development we do not forget the primary mission of higher education -- the education of students and the conduct of research. Kitchen incubators, radio stations, and farmers' markets are important assets for any community, but not necessarily consistent with the role of a university campus.
In Spokane, we have a most enviable resource -- 50-plus acres of ground dedicated to higher education development adjacent to the downtown core. While that may sound like a lot of property, it is actually quite small, even for an urban campus. The university community will need to be very careful to protect that asset for future generations. There will be hundreds of opportunities to carve off parts of the campus for seemingly worthwhile initiatives like the Phoenix Project. But to be the real engine for economic development in the region, the campus will need to not only continue developing its intellectual critical mass, but also to protect its physical infrastructure.
Eye Spy & r & The Bush Administration's warrantless surveillance on American citizens is illegal. It is, in fact, unreasonable search and seizure and it truly invades our privacy.
What is making his actions illegal is that he is not complying with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act passed in 1978, which sets regulations for law enforcement and the government when performing wiretaps. For the NSA to perform wiretaps among citizens within United States borders, they are specifically required to obtain a warrant through the judge. However, Bush has taken a different stance so he can get around the regulations of FISA, which is the president's inherent powers and authorization.
Another way they are claiming that the administration's actions are illegal is through Authorization of Military Force. Their position is that they believe the president has the power to conduct surveillance in order to fight Al Qaeda. However, this only applies when it is necessary force against whatever country, persons or nations.
It also has been argued that warrantless surveillance is a necessary part of war, and that is true on the battlefield, but performing warrantless surveillance on citizens isn't a battlefield situation.
Looking at all of this, I personally do not understand why the president just couldn't go through FISA. It is a relatively quick process and it provides emergency surveillance procedures if necessary. In addition, my question lies in the effectiveness of surveillance. Does it work? As citizens being the subjects of surveillance (or partners of surveillance), we have the right to know if this warrantless surveillance is truly fighting terrorism. I believe that it may be helping with crime, but not with terrorism.
Megan E. Foland & r & Cheney, Wash.
1. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli government is not anti-semitism. Their treatment of the Palestinians has been similar to our treatment of the American Indians. The tribes were once demonized, but today we clearly see that we took this country from them. A same evolution of thought must happen between Israel and Palestine.
2. America is not a Christian country. If Jesus Christ ran this country, it would not be a world economic leader, with the most powerful military on the planet. Jesus was not interested in money, and he had no love of war. He'd be beating swords into plowshares.
3. The actions of terrorist extremists have nothing to do with what Mohammed taught. Many people don't say this for fear of reprisal, but this must be said. Well, I'm at peace with my God, let them kill me. But know first that I am not anti-Islam. I have deep respect for Mohammed and his teachings.
Indeed, I have deep respect as well for Judaism and Christianity. I try to follow the teachings of Christ myself. But I think that today, most Christians, Jews and Muslims are listening to their holy men too much and not their prophets. Ministers, priests, rabbis, mullahs and ayatollahs are only human, and prone to the deadly sins like any human. It's time we all stopped following and began leading, because all of our leaders, religious and political, are failing us.
That's the recipe for world peace. Are you one of the ingredients, or just a fly swimming in the batter?
What Conservative Party? & lt;BR & When I was a teenager in the 1960s, dabbling in politics, my mom and dad left the Democratic party. They'd had enough of street protests and flag burnings, and made for the shores of the party of Eisenhower and Nixon. They'd seen Democrats try to solve all problems by throwing away money, but government, they reasoned, should conserve. They were conservatives. They didn't like the idea of government being in debt, and were aghast at this new thing called a "trade deficit." The 1994 "Republican Revolution" would've especially thrilled them. Small government and welfare limits would've been right up their alley.
But they were true conservatives. Yes, keep government out of your pocketbook, but also out of unnecessary wars, your bedroom and your telephone records. If they were alive today, they'd be appalled at the number of Republican Congress members under investigation for corruption. They'd have just called it stealing. They would have found the Republican's trillion-dollar boondoggle in Iraq just as offensive as the useless Democrat-led government agencies of their own day. And the idea that a Republican president would move America from a surplus to this yawning, endless deficit would've made them furious. After all, isn't that what "tax and spend" Democrats did? But Democratic spending was a drop in the bucket compared to current Republican pilfering. No wonder commentators like George Will and have long claimed that Bush and the current Republican crop, with their mounting legal bills, are not conservatives at all.
Me, I'm a liberal, a bit homeless in the current climate -- but if my parents were alive, they'd feel just as adrift in today's "Party of Abe Lincoln."

CJCJ congratulates Terence Baugh, our new Director of Behavioral Health!
Erica Webster
CJCJ's new Director of Behavioral Health grew up in the same neighborhoods where he now works with youth and families impacted by the juvenile justice system. Terence Baugh moved around San Francisco a lot as a youth: he lived in Bernal Heights, across from the Army Street Projects, until he was about 10 years old, then moved to the Excelsior and Mission Terrace neighborhoods, Visitacion Valley, and Daly City – shifting between living with his mom and dad. As a teenager, he attended Lick-Wilmerding High School in Balboa Park.
Terence says growing up in San Francisco influenced his development profoundly. "I was exposed to a lot of street violence and intense cultural tension," he said. "It was common that I would be playing in Precita Park or Visitacion Park, right next to Geneva Towers, and get jumped or attacked. The streets rarely felt safe."
His personal experiences have allowed him to empathize with the youth he works with at CJCJ. "Growing up in that environment allowed me to have an understanding of how trauma can impact kids' lives so directly, and have such a huge impact on their affect and behaviors. It becomes clear from an early age that it makes sense to embody strategies and personalities that will appropriately allow them to survive and feel protected."
Terence now manages CJCJ's Juvenile Justice Behavioral Health programs: Community Options for Youth (COY), Placement Diversion and Re-entry Program (PDRP), and our Wraparound program. These programs are focused on ensuring that youth on probation, with acute mental or behavioral health needs, are supported by clinical case managers, counselors, clinicians, and care coordinators who can provide intensive case management and therapeutic support.
"Too often, I see that these kids are not getting the support they deserve from the education system, community resources, and most unfortunately, their families often don't have the capacity to fully meet their needs," says Terence. "Our clients feel financial pressures early on and are forced to grow up too quickly, sometimes they are forced to make decisions they're not ready for. Sometimes these decisions, brought on by psycho-social factors and disadvantages, result in their involvement in the juvenile justice system."
Terence recognizes the struggles of kids growing up in impoverished and disenfranchised communities, but acknowledges the privileges he was granted. "I was able to go to private schools, get a lot of support from teachers one on one, and had a really loving family," he says. "But I feel I have an understanding of where they are coming from and why they are making certain choices, so I would never presume to judge their behaviors and decisions. In fact, my hope for the youth and families is that they can take the challenges they have faced, overcome adversities, and become the change they want to see."
This is the same mindset Terence looks for in his behavioral health staff: an understanding of what youth in the Bay Area are dealing with that might bring them into the juvenile justice system in the first place. "I look for individuals who have similar life experiences, and understand how to build relationships and rapport in a style that allows them be credible, trusted, and nurturing with this population."
"Having a diverse staff that has lived knowledge around what it's like to grow up in the inner city, be part of the justice system, or experience incarceration is crucial to embodying a common language and a shared understanding."
Before becoming Director of Behavioral Health, Terence obtained his MA in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies, which he describes as a more transpersonal and spiritual school of psychology: "It requires a lot of work on yourself. It's difficult to complete the program without going through the crucible of looking at your own trauma, seeing where you have blind spots, and making sure those don't interfere with the welfare of your clients."
Shortly after graduation, Terence joined CJCJ as a Clinical Case Manager. He then transitioned into the Clinician role for three years and now serves as the Director of Behavioral Health. He is also a fully licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. October will mark his fifth anniversary with the agency.
In reflecting on his new role at CJCJ, Terence remarks, "I really love this position because it is the culmination of my life's work. I deeply enjoy the balance of providing clinical care in the community, along with the management, training, and development of our staff. CJCJ's mental health team works hard in continuing to grow, learn, and always find new ways to care about the kids and families. That kindness and big-heartedness is at the forefront of what we do. I see CJCJ as one of the leaders of this community in the ways we're able to engage with our youth, and continuously balance the challenges of working within the juvenile justice system. It's exciting to be able to affect kids lives and be there with them throughout the process of helping them get off probation, and to a much larger extent, help them care about themselves."

History/Background
The Virginia Military Institute was founded in 1839, outside the town of Lexington, Virginia. The cadets and the Instructors were part of the Virginia militia system. Classes each year began in July with an encampment. The entire cadet corps was present for the encampment, where they would take part in marches, field exercises, infantry and artillery drills and guard duty. Cadets at the VMI were expected to perform well scholastically as well as physically. The physical training, or at least part of the training was moving field artillery pieces around the parade grounds. There were two of specially made lightweight canons manufactured for that purpose. The students named them Matthew and Mark.
The corps was called out in 1861, to protect Virginia state property and again in 1862 to assume a defensive position in case of an invasion of the Shenandoah Valley. On May 15, 1863, the VMI corps of cadets assembled to pay tribute to, and to bury their former instructor Lt. General Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson. One year later the corps would assemble to take part in the battle for which it is most famous: New Market.
New Market was a village in the rolling country between a fork of the Shenandoah River and one side of Massanutten Mountain. The battle took place between a Union force of about 6500 men, commanded by Major-General Franz Siegel and a Confederate force of less than 5000 men, commanded by Major-General John Breckinridge. General Breckinridge was ordered to deny General Sigel access to Staunton, Virginia.
On May 15, 1864, a force of 215 to 258 Cadets arrived from Lexington to assist General Breckinridge in his defense of the Valley. The cadets were fifteen, sixteen and seventeen years old, though some accounts record cadets as young as twelve. The youngest cadets were left behind in Lexington, feeling disgraced at missing the opportunity to fight.
General Breckinridge kept the cadets in reserve during the morning and the early part of the afternoon; he did this at the request of President Jefferson Davis. The President wanted to prevent what he referred to as grinding the seed corn of the nation. Later in the afternoon, General Breckinridge could wait no longer and told his adjutant Charles Semple, Put the boys in, after some hesitation, he added tearfully, and may God forgive me for that order.
The cadets went into battle led by Lt. Col. Scott Shipp, age twenty-four. Insults were shouted at the boys as they approached the front lines. The veterans yelled: Here come the wagon dogs!, Katydids!, Ho, bombproofs, get outta them good clothes! and other disparaging remarks. The cadets wanted to stop and fight on the spot for their honor, but were ordered forward. They joined the Confederate line in the center, a place regarded as a great honor and moved with the line as it went up Bushongs Hill. On the way up the hill they passed their own artillery battery that was already in action and moved down the other side. Five cadets from C Company went down from shell fire almost right away. The other cadets had not believed the battle was so close. Sergeant Cabell called for the boys to close up and move forward. The cadets moved to within 300 yards of a Battery of the 30th New York Artillery, commanded by Capt. Albert von Kleisen.
The boys took cover in a ravine filled with cedar scrub and stumps. It should be noted here that the ravine was filled with thick mud; the result of a week of heavy rain. The mud in the ravine was so thick that many of the cadets' shoes were left behind, stuck in the mud. This area is now known as the field of shoes. As the Confederate line moved forward the cadets moved with the veterans. The cadets made it through the ravine more swiftly than the 62nd Virginia Mounted Infantry, which was on their right. Their line was split at Bushong House, but was reformed in good order on the other side. After the cadets were reformed, Col. Shipp gave the order, fix bayonets. The Colonel and several cadets were struck by shell fragments and fell at this spot. Following the blast, many of the cadets seemed ready to falter, but Cadet Pizzini of B Company swore that he would shoot anyone that ran away. The boys pressed onward.
Capt. Franklin E. Town of the United States Signal Corps watched the movements of the cadets and was so taken by the precision of their movements that he overlooked fact that he could have been captured. He observed that as the big guns changed from canister to double canister, the lines did not falter; it was as if the cadets were on parade. The cadets continued until they were inside the Federal lines, where they captured an artillery piece. The cadets cheered wildly as the VMI flag was waved over the captured canon. The cost of this battle for the VMI was 10 dead and 44 wounded. By comparison the 62nd Virginia had 7 of its 10 Captains shot down and 241 dead or wounded. After the battle General Breckinridge sent the cadets back to act as reserves.
The following day General Breckinridge stopped to pay his compliments, he said, Boys, the work you did yesterday will make you famous. Like a true veteran, one of the boys told the General the fame would be all right, but they would be happy to find the Generals commissary wagon.
Each year on May 15, the corps of cadets retraces the steps of the New Market battle and performs a special ceremony. The roll of the corps of cadets is called, but with ten additional names added to the roll; the names of the ten cadets that died at New Market.
Sergeant Cabell
Private Jefferson
Corporal Atwill
Private Jones
Private Crocket
Private McDowell
Private Hartsfield
Private Stanard
Private Haynes
Private Wheelwright
As each of these names is called, a living cadet steps forward and replies, Died, on the field of honor, sir.
The Virginia Military Institute is still in operation today. It continues its tradition of providing a good military education to its cadets in addition to the excellent training in engineering and the sciences.

Return To Health & Medicine
A FRONTIER MEDICAL HERITAGE IN OF PINCHER CREEK: CHRONICLES OF MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
by Farley Wuth, Curator,
Copyright, Pincher Creek & District Historical Society
One of Pincher Creek's firsts was the old Memorial Hospital, an impressive structure that housed the settlement's original formal hospital.
Although the arrival of doctors, midwives and some medical services dated as early as the 1880s, most of these endeavours were handled out of peoples' homes or cramped offices set up by the doctors themselves.
The Memorial Hospital, established circa 1902, answered an increasing demand for full hospital services, after nearly twenty-five years of settlement geographically far removed from any equivalent medical care. Emergency trips to Fort Macleod or Lethbridge, the sites of already established hospitals, were labourious at best and in most cases, downright dangerous given the lengths of the journeys and the lack of medical technology of the pioneer era. Locals often had to avail themselves upon the generosity of others for medical accommodations. Mrs. Amy Saunders adeptly provided this service in her log dwelling on Main Street. Making house calls was not the most efficient way to use a doctor's time and the need for round the clock qualified nursing care was apparent.
A Pincher Creek Hospital which offered doctor and nursing care, surgeries, quarantines, deliveries, emergency care and access to the latest in medicines was badly needed. The Memorial Hospital answered that need.
The point was brought home by the local impact of the South African War of 1899 to 1902 whose battlefields were half a world away. Far removed as those may have been, close to thirty district men enlisted in the conflict, and three – Fred Morden, Robert Kerr, and Ovide Smith – were killed in action. Capitalizing on the sense of immense loss coupled with that frontier community spirit for which Pincher Creek has been famous and the area's need for a functional hospital, local pioneers seized the opportunity and organized a campaign to build their much-needed medical facility. The result was the Memorial Hospital.
LOCATION AND STRUCTURE IMPORTANT
The facility was located in the northeastern corner of town, north of the Creek and just below the North Hill at a point east of what was popularly known as the Mill Hill. The site, now along the east side of the 1100 block of John Avenue, was just below the industrial workings of the Pincher Creek Electrical Company. It was within reasonable walking or horse and buggy/sleigh distance of most points in the settlement's south side, an important consideration in the pre-mechanized era. That accessibility was enhanced by the 1898 wooden traffic bridge and the two subsequently constructed footbridges spanning the Creek immediately upstream of the Hospital and much further west, near Morden's Grove.
The hospital's physical structure was both functional and eye-catching. The original part was a two-storey rectangular building whose main entrance faced to the west. Eventually an enclosed porch protected the public access from those prevalent westerly winds. A wrap around second floor verandah was attached, prior to December 1913, to its north and east sides with an exterior staircase leading down to the ground level at the building's southwest corner. Traditional vertical windows could be seen on most sides with the need for storm windows being discussed by the Board in October 1914. An addition, also two-stories in height, was added on the east or rear portion of the structure. It is believed that this took place between 1907 when the issue of requiring a larger facility was first raised and 1915 when a photo was taken depicting the larger facility. The building was highly visible on the pioneer Pincher Creek landscape for close to a generation.
Although the specifics in regards to the physical arrangement of the hospital's interior have been lost to history, it is understood that there were a number of common wards and private rooms on the first and second floors. A surgery, primitive as though it may have been given the frontier understanding of medicine, was located on the lower level where access was the easiest. A dispensary and doctors' office was situated nearby. Dormitory style staff accommodations, mostly for the nurses, would have been located upstairs. The need for the installation of 14' x 14' addition with a main level water closet and an upstairs ward was discussed by the Hospital Board at their September 17th, 1907 meeting.
COMMENDABLE EFFORTS TO RAISE HOSPITAL FUNDS SAW MIXED RESULTS
Fundraising campaigns and events were an administrative mainstay throughout the Memorial Hospital's history. It was only through these efforts that the Hospital was able to remain financially afloat and keep its doors open to the public. Patients had to pay the bulk of their own medical costs and delinquent accounts were a Hospital Board issue of concern as early as August 1907. Hospital Secretary W. A. Ross, who worked extensively as a bookkeeper, noted however some six years later that no patient would be turned away due to a lack of funds.
The Hospital Board in 1913 launched a "Whirlwind Campaign" designed to eliminate the accumulated deficits incurred during the previous seven or eight years and to pay for badly needed building and grounds improvements. The autumn campaign, pegged at 2500 dollars, received much appreciated boost by Lord Strathcona who made an early pledge of one-thousand dollars. Strathcona's promise was received on the thirteenth anniversary of the 1900 battle at Honing Spruit, South Africa. Under the auspices of Manager H. W. Rudd of the Pincher Creek Hudson's Bay Company Store, the soon-to-be-departed department store made an unspecified donation plus a five per cent of all sales there on Saturday, October 18th, 1913.
Donations to the Hospital often were in goods and services rather than cash. This barter type system was gratefully accepted. The autumn of 1907, for instance, saw much needed perishables come in: vegetables were brought in by Mrs. Mary (Martin) Macleod, vegetables and buns by Mrs. Mickie Reardon, a pair of chickens by Mrs. Matilda Wilson, grapes by John Redpath, cream from Mrs. Katherine (Pete) Herron, vegetables, eggs and preserves by Mrs. Catherine Scott, and Mrs. Levasseur brough a cake. Mrs. Faithorn brought in a set of books which was much appreciated reading material.
By the third quarter of 1914, the hospital budget showed that revenues, which totaled $2081.73, exceeded expenditures by over one hundred and fifty dollars. The concept of implementing a hospital tax based upon property holdings, similar to what was in place in Manitoba, was discussed by the Hospital Board. Local officials though that the Government of Alberta should be lobbied for a similar system within this province.
Rural localities chipped in regularly with fundraising events in support of the Hospital. The Fishburn community hosted a well organized and highly patronized dance at its community hall, the local school house constructed back in 1894, the evening of Friday, June 24th, 1910. Funds totaling $49.50 were raised with only sixteen dollars going towards expenses (payment for the band, hall rental and printing), the profits going directly to the Memorial Hospital. Music was supplied by Mr. Derritt on the violin and Mrs. A. L. Saunders accompanying on the piano. Mr. H. McGlenning served as the event's secretary-treasurer.
The final week of April 1916 saw a Hospital Ball being hosted as a Memorial fundraiser. Although attendance was down from previous years due to Easter being late that time around, the effort still raised close to seventy-five dollars profit. A large crowd showed up early the following February for a well-orchestrated concert that raised an impressive 128 dollars. Entertaining musical contributions came from such locals as Charlie Taysum, Laura Freebairn, "Mac" McMurdo and Mabel Jackson. A masquerade ball, hosted in February 1918, raised another $142.65.
One of the last fundraising efforts of the Memorial was its spring and summer 1919 Hospital Drive. Similar to that of a subscription drive, it went after both town and rural donations. Although more than three hundred dollars was raised, the Hospital was facing serious financial issues, perhaps a victim of the post-World War One economic recession.
Local merchants were owed nearly one-thousand dollars in outstanding invoices, and a further debt of six-hundred dollars was owed to the Union Bank. This was in terms of a note for which the Hospital Board of Directors was personally responsible. An old account of one hundred dollars, due the firm of Chaudler & Fisher of Winnipeg, was outstanding. Back wages for the staff accumulated a further three-hundred dollars. The total indebtedness came to over two thousand dollars.
Donations the following spring, primarily coming from town and rural businesses and citizens, came to within a few cents of three hundred dollars. Financial times were tough for the Memorial Hospital.
PIONEERS WITH A VISION
Throughout its history, the Memorial Hospital was served by a dedicated team of Board members, volunteers and staff who worked hard at offering the best pioneer medical services possible and in keeping the facility financially afloat. When the decision was made to launch the idea of the hospital, a large committee whose members represented the various districts was formed to collect funds for the effort. The fundraising committee launched a valiant effort to raise monies following the end of the Great War included ranchers Thomas Hammond and Robert Lang, businessmen R. O. Allison and W. R. Laidlaw, and community members J. J. Cameron and C. G. Thomas.
Three local fellows, Canon Havelock Smith of the Anglican Church, Constable G. N. (Jay) Gould of the N.W.M.P., and the Reverend H. R. Grant of the Presbyterian Church, formed the Building Committee. The Board of Directors also reflected dedicated community people. Some of those serving in the autumn of 1907 included businessmen E. J. Mitchell and Lynch, ex-Mountie turned rancher A. H. Lynch-Staunton, and veterinarian Dr. David Warnock. Seven years later, the Board President was Thomas Morden. Other Board members that year included businessmen S. A. Fraser, Wm. McKerricher and J. E. Upton as well as community members G. E. Saville and the Reverend Gretton.
The Town's Secretary-Treasurer, George D. Plunkett, adeptly served as the Board's Secretary. He was succeeded by W. A. Ross who served in 1913-14, resigning to make way for the new Manager.
The Ladies Hospital Auxiliary assisted with its overall operations including fundraising, volunteer recruitment and visiting with the patients. Mrs. A. N. Mouat was its 1910 President, Mrs. F. Hinton its Vice President, Mrs. A. C. Kemmis its Secretary-Treasurer, and its Corresponding Secretary was Miss Mary Bull. Committee members that year included Mrs. William Maxwell and Mrs. Margaret (W. H.) Jackson who looked after sewing and purchasing, and Miss Bull accompanied by Mrs. Catherine Scott who looked after supplies. During the Great War, Mrs. S. M. Hinton served as the Auxiliary's President, retiring in late March 1916. She was succeeded by Miss Mary Bull who was a long-time Public School teacher. The Auxiliary boasted a list of over one-hundred local ladies who would visit patients in the Memorial Hospital on a regular, often weekly basis. These dedicated volunteers brought much-appreciated socialization to the sick. Hospital visiting hours prior to the outbreak of the Great War were daily, afternoons from 2 to 4:30 p.m. and evenings for the hour and a half starting at 7 p.m.
Staff included a Manager, G. S. Deslandes, who was hired for the position in early October 1914. He was chosen by the Board over rival applicants S. Watson, Thomas S. Hoare and Harvey Bossenberry. The Manager was responsible for "raising subscriptions and to attend to the general financing of the institution." His monthly salary was set at sixty-five dollars plus room and board. Previously, four hundred dollars had been spent annually for the Secretary to do the same work.
The medical staff at the Memorial Hospital served as the front line workers, dealing with a variety of emergencies, injuries, illnesses which often were contagious, and child birthing. Dr. J. J. Gillespie was one of the hard-working doctors to serve there. His efforts were supplemented by such nurses as Natalia Duval Michell, R.N., who served as the Hospital's Matron. She passed away in 1920. Rose Husband served as one of the very capable nurses and business managers for three years during the War. She married Bruce Parker in 1921.
Memorial Hospital employees enumerated in 1910 included Maud Edgar who worked as a nurse. Her wages that year came to 480 dollars. She was born in March 1882. Louise Gibb also worked as a nurse that year, pulling in the same wages. Gibb was born in April 1881 in England, immigrating to Canada at the age of twenty-four years. Mary Bell, who was born on the Canadian Prairies in June 1883, also nursed and earned the same wages. The Hospital's cook that year was Sarah Simpson – her annual wages came to 360 dollars. Born in England in May 1881, she immigrated to Canada in 1902. Lillian Lans, whose job title was that of domestic, meant that she helped with housekeeping, laundry and cleaning duties. Her 1910 wages came to three hundred dollars. The youngest of the crew, she was born in January 1891.
The Memorial Hospital permanently closed in the early 1920s.


Houston-based Excipio Energy is moving a high-capacity hybrid offshore energy concept toward tank testing, with the aim of having a full-scale prototype ready for installation by 2024.
The company, whose founders came out of the international offshore oil & gas industry, is finalising "agreements or expressions of interest" with 12 companies that will supply components or help develop the Excibuoy concept, which is built around an innovative floating platform fitted with a wind turbine and one of several marine power conversion technologies.
Designed to be tailored for a range of roles, from a clean-energy source for ageing offshore oil fields to standalone sea-power plants in waters of 100-metres and deeper, the concept was developed following a study of some 1,500 offshore renewable energy technology patents.
"We came into this project from oil & gas so we didn't have a prejudice toward one technology or another," chief executive Roy Robinson tells Recharge.
The design, which uses a 60-metre x 60-metre square steel platform with hinged spar-shape legs some 80-metres in length, could incorporate "a wide variation" of power-producing elements, including ultra-large wind turbines, oscillating water column or point absorber wave energy devices and OTEC system, to generate all-in output of 20-30MW per Excibuoy.
Excipio has modelled installations of different versions of the design in "most every region of the world you can imagine", says Robinson, but narrowed it to several optimal locations for first demonstrator projects, including a wind-OTEC design in 2,000-metres of water in the Gulf of Mexico that would power a subsea oil & gas field and another standalone wind-ocean-current unit in water depths of 200-metres in the northern Atlantic.
Excipio is now fund-raising to move into a 18-24 month programme of tank-tests and modelling to confirm the integrated performance, with a view to then building the full-scale prototype.

Taking it all on – no doubt, no fear!
Don't change yourselves to be like the people of this world, but let God change you inside with a new way of thinking. Then you will be able to understand and accept what God wants for you. You will be able to know what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect (Romans 12:2).
So this morning I've been thinking about the idea of "God with us." I was actually wrestling, a little, with the personal nature of my relationship with God. I had headed out for my walk with Scout, and – as is often my practice – I took a look at the Bible verse attached to the Upper Room daily devotional.
I don't know why, but right away my mind pulled up the picture of our granddaughter, Beks, taken by Naomi earlier this week. Well, maybe I do know why. The image could represent holding back, hiding behind the counter… or it could equally – especially with the Phillies hat – be a more menacing, "Here comes trouble!" pose.
It's really the answer to my – constant – question about the personal nature of my relationship with God. How does that clear acknowledgement of the fact of God trickle down into the day-to-day world where I live?
Well, the answer is often found in the way I peer out from behind the counter, Phillies hat and menacing expression ready to go. It's as if Jesus is reaching out his hand to me, much like he did to Peter on the water, inviting the real-time relationship.
If I step out, if I move into this life as a conscious, intentional, "take courage" disciple, then there is no doubt that Jesus is with me. But if I remain a spectator, wanting complete assurance before I make my first move, then I will never have taken his hand in mine, I will never have stepped out in faith… and I will always wonder….
My grandchildren don't always make me think theologically – but God does use them a lot to get my attention.
I was watching The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey this morning and was reminded of a wonderful exchange between Gandolf and Lady Galadriel, who seemed to want Gandolf to reveal his soul by explaining his choice of Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit, to help the homeless dwarves overcome their terrible enemy.
Lady Galadriel: Why the hobbit?
Gandolf: I don't know. Saruman believes it is only great power that can hold evil in check. but that is not what I found. I found it is the small things, everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keeps the darkness at bay, simple acts of kindness and love. Why Bilbo Baggins? Perhaps it is because i am afraid, and he gives me courage.
Lady Galadriel: Do not be afraid. You are not alone.
Love this post. Very helpful to me at a time where I am transitioning from receiving SSDI (disability benefits) to full-time work once again. I'll be returning to the field of mental health as a psych tech while I complete my undergraduate degree in psychology at Colorado Christian University (online). I hope to also continue with graduate level classes to earn a masters degree in clinical counseling. God has called me to the ministry of addictions counseling, working primarily with teens and young adults. I will be taking the Christian (biblical) counseling approach to therapy. Love the Phillies hat by the way. I spent ten years in Philadelphia, working first as a psych tech and then as a paralegal. I made it to two Phillies games recently. Of course, GO EAGLES. Love the new quarterback.
I have put your book "Get Real: A Spiritual Journey for Men" on my Amazon wish list. I'll be ordering it next Friday.
God bless. I look forward to more of your posts.


The Lady Crusaders defeated St. Andrew's 2-0, claiming their 6th state title in the last 7 years. The boys also defeated St. Andrew's 1-0, winning their first state title since 2013.
BRANDON, MS (WDAM) - The Sacred Heart boys and girls soccer teams claimed the 1A/2A/3A state titles Saturday in Brandon.
It was familiar ground for the Lady Crusaders as defeated St. Andrew's Episcopal 2-0, claiming their 6th state title in the last 7 years. Gracie Falla sent a free kick to Olivia Ware, who lofted a shot over the goalkeeper's head to giving Sacred Heart their first score of the game.
Senior Blair Viator scored the Lady Crusaders' final goal with a 25-yard floater over the goalkeeper.
"Every year you get more excited just to keep on adding to the dynasty," Sophomore forward Olivia Ware said.
The girls stuck around to cheer on the boys, who also took on St. Andrew's Episcopal for the state title.
Junior midfielder Garrett Bell scored on a penalty kick in the 43rd minute of the second half giving the Crusaders a 1-0 victory and their first state title since 2013.


S - The type of the objects contained within the TableView items list.
The TableView control is designed to visualize an unlimited number of rows of data, broken out into columns. A TableView is therefore very similar to the ListView control, with the addition of support for columns. For an example on how to create a TableView, refer to the 'Creating a TableView' control section below.
Support for cell factories to easily customize cell contents in both rendering and editing states.
Specification of minWidth/ prefWidth/ maxWidth, and also fixed width columns.
Width resizing by the user at runtime.
Column reordering by the user at runtime.
Different resizing policies to dictate what happens when the user resizes columns.
Support for multiple column sorting by clicking the column header (hold down Shift keyboard key whilst clicking on a header to sort by multiple columns).
Note that TableView is intended to be used to visualize data - it is not intended to be used for laying out your user interface. If you want to lay your user interface out in a grid-like fashion, consider the GridPane layout instead.
With the items set as such, TableView will automatically update whenever the teamMembers list changes. If the items list is available before the TableView is instantiated, it is possible to pass it directly into the constructor.
With the code shown above we have fully defined the minimum properties required to create a TableView instance. Running this code (assuming the people ObservableList is appropriately created) will result in a TableView being shown with two columns for firstName and lastName. Any other properties of the Person class will not be shown, as no TableColumns are defined.
To track selection and focus, it is necessary to become familiar with the SelectionModel and FocusModel classes. A TableView has at most one instance of each of these classes, available from selectionModel and focusModel properties respectively. Whilst it is possible to use this API to set a new selection model, in most circumstances this is not necessary - the default selection and focus models should work in most circumstances.
The visuals of the TableView can be entirely customized by replacing the default row factory. A row factory is used to generate TableRow instances, which are used to represent an entire row in the TableView.
In many cases, this is not what is desired however, as it is more commonly the case that cells be customized on a per-column basis, not a per-row basis. It is therefore important to note that a TableRow is not a TableCell. A TableRow is simply a container for zero or more TableCell, and in most circumstances it is more likely that you'll want to create custom TableCells, rather than TableRows. The primary use case for creating custom TableRow instances would most probably be to introduce some form of column spanning support.
You can create custom TableCell instances per column by assigning the appropriate function to the TableColumn cell factory property.
See the Cell class documentation for a more complete description of how to write custom Cells.
Prior to JavaFX 8.0, the TableView control would treat the items list as the view model, meaning that any changes to the list would be immediately reflected visually. TableView would also modify the order of this list directly when a user initiated a sort. This meant that (again, prior to JavaFX 8.0) it was not possible to have the TableView return to an unsorted state (after iterating through ascending and descending orders).
// Don't forget to define columns!
This control supports inline editing of values, and this section attempts to give an overview of the available APIs and how you should use them.
Firstly, cell editing most commonly requires a different user interface than when a cell is not being edited. This is the responsibility of the Cell implementation being used. For TableView, it is highly recommended that editing be per-TableColumn, rather than per row, as more often than not you want users to edit each column value differently, and this approach allows for editors specific to each column. It is your choice whether the cell is permanently in an editing state (e.g. this is common for CheckBox cells), or to switch to a different UI when editing begins (e.g. when a double-click is received on a cell).
To know when editing has been requested on a cell, simply override the Cell.startEdit() method, and update the cell text and graphic properties as appropriate (e.g. set the text to null and set the graphic to be a TextField). Additionally, you should also override Cell.cancelEdit() to reset the UI back to its original visual state when the editing concludes. In both cases it is important that you also ensure that you call the super method to have the cell perform all duties it must do to enter or exit its editing mode.
Once your cell is in an editing state, the next thing you are most probably interested in is how to commit or cancel the editing that is taking place. This is your responsibility as the cell factory provider. Your cell implementation will know when the editing is over, based on the user input (e.g. when the user presses the Enter or ESC keys on their keyboard). When this happens, it is your responsibility to call Cell.commitEdit(Object) or Cell.cancelEdit(), as appropriate.
When you call Cell.commitEdit(Object) an event is fired to the TableView, which you can observe by adding an EventHandler via TableColumn.setOnEditCommit(javafx.event.EventHandler). Similarly, you can also observe edit events for edit start and edit cancel.
By default the TableColumn edit commit handler is non-null, with a default handler that attempts to overwrite the property value for the item in the currently-being-edited row. It is able to do this as the Cell.commitEdit(Object) method is passed in the new value, and this is passed along to the edit commit handler via the CellEditEvent that is fired. It is simply a matter of calling TableColumn.CellEditEvent.getNewValue() to retrieve this value.
It is very important to note that if you call TableColumn.setOnEditCommit(javafx.event.EventHandler) with your own EventHandler, then you will be removing the default handler. Unless you then handle the writeback to the property (or the relevant data source), nothing will happen. You can work around this by using the TableColumnBase.addEventHandler(javafx.event.EventType, javafx.event.EventHandler) method to add a TableColumn.EDIT_COMMIT_EVENT EventType with your desired EventHandler as the second argument. Using this method, you will not replace the default implementation, but you will be notified when an edit commit has occurred.
Hopefully this summary answers some of the commonly asked questions. Fortunately, JavaFX ships with a number of pre-built cell factories that handle all the editing requirements on your behalf. You can find these pre-built cell factories in the javafx.scene.control.cell package.
This is the function called when the user completes a column-resize operation.
The comparator property is a read-only property that is representative of the current state of the sort order list.
Specifies whether this TableView is editable - only if the TableView, the TableColumn (if applicable) and the TableCells within it are both editable will a TableCell be able to go into their editing state.
Represents the current cell being edited, or null if there is no cell being edited.
Specifies whether this control has cells that are a fixed height (of the specified value).
Represents the currently-installed TableView.TableViewFocusModel for this TableView.
The underlying data model for the TableView.
Called when there's a request to sort the control.
This Node is shown to the user when the table has no content to show.
A function which produces a TableRow.
The SelectionModel provides the API through which it is possible to select single or multiple items within a TableView, as well as inspect which items have been selected by the user.
The sort policy specifies how sorting in this TableView should be performed.
This controls whether a menu button is available when the user clicks in a designated space within the TableView, within which is a radio menu item for each TableColumn in this table.
Simple policy that ensures the width of all visible leaf columns in this table sum up to equal the width of the table itself.
The default sort policy that this TableView will use if no other policy is specified.
Very simple resize policy that just resizes the specified column by the provided delta and shifts all other columns (to the right of the given column) further to the right (when the delta is positive) or to the left (when the delta is negative).
Creates a default TableView control with no content.
Creates a TableView with the content provided in the items ObservableList.
Causes the cell at the given row/column view indexes to switch into its editing state, if it is not already in it, and assuming that the TableView and column are also editable.
Gets the value of the property columnResizePolicy.

Gets the value of the property onScrollTo.
Gets the value of the property onScrollToColumn.
Gets the value of the property onSort.
Gets the value of the property placeholder.
Gets the value of the property rowFactory.

Sets the value of the property placeholder.
Sets the value of the property rowFactory.
Sets the value of the property selectionModel.
Sets the value of the property sortPolicy.
Sets the value of the property tableMenuButtonVisible.
The sort method forces the TableView to re-run its sorting algorithm.
The underlying data model for the TableView. Note that it has a generic type that must match the type of the TableView itself.
This controls whether a menu button is available when the user clicks in a designated space within the TableView, within which is a radio menu item for each TableColumn in this table. This menu allows for the user to show and hide all TableColumns easily.
This is the function called when the user completes a column-resize operation. The two most common policies are available as static functions in the TableView class: UNCONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY and CONSTRAINED_RESIZE_POLICY.
A function which produces a TableRow. The system is responsible for reusing TableRows. Return from this function a TableRow which might be usable for representing a single row in a TableView.
Note that a TableRow is not a TableCell. A TableRow is simply a container for a TableCell, and in most circumstances it is more likely that you'll want to create custom TableCells, rather than TableRows. The primary use case for creating custom TableRow instances would most probably be to introduce some form of column spanning support.
You can create custom TableCell instances per column by assigning the appropriate function to the cellFactory property in the TableColumn class.
This Node is shown to the user when the table has no content to show. This may be the case because the table model has no data in the first place, that a filter has been applied to the table model, resulting in there being nothing to show the user, or that there are no currently visible columns.
The SelectionModel provides the API through which it is possible to select single or multiple items within a TableView, as well as inspect which items have been selected by the user. Note that it has a generic type that must match the type of the TableView itself.
Represents the currently-installed TableView.TableViewFocusModel for this TableView. Under almost all circumstances leaving this as the default focus model will suffice.
Specifies whether this control has cells that are a fixed height (of the specified value). If this value is less than or equal to zero, then all cells are individually sized and positioned. This is a slow operation. Therefore, when performance matters and developers are not dependent on variable cell sizes it is a good idea to set the fixed cell size value. Generally cells are around 24px, so setting a fixed cell size of 24 is likely to result in very little difference in visuals, but a improvement to performance.
To set this property via CSS, use the -fx-fixed-cell-size property. This should not be confused with the -fx-cell-size property. The difference between these two CSS properties is that -fx-cell-size will size all cells to the specified size, but it will not enforce that this is the only size (thus allowing for variable cell sizes, and preventing the performance gains from being possible). Therefore, when performance matters use -fx-fixed-cell-size, instead of -fx-cell-size. If both properties are specified in CSS, -fx-fixed-cell-size takes precedence.
The comparator property is a read-only property that is representative of the current state of the sort order list. The sort order list contains the columns that have been added to it either programmatically or via a user clicking on the headers themselves.
The sort policy specifies how sorting in this TableView should be performed. For example, a basic sort policy may just call FXCollections.sort(tableView.getItems()), whereas a more advanced sort policy may call to a database to perform the necessary sorting on the server-side.
TableView ships with a default sort policy that does precisely as mentioned above: it simply attempts to sort the items list in-place.
It is recommended that rather than override the sort method that a different sort policy be provided instead.
It also handles the case where we have nested columns by sharing the new space, or subtracting the removed space, evenly between all immediate children columns. Of course, the immediate children may themselves be nested, and they would then use this policy on their children.
When the user resizes a column width with this policy, the table automatically adjusts the width of the right hand side columns. When the user increases a column width, the table decreases the width of the rightmost column until it reaches its minimum width. Then it decreases the width of the second rightmost column until it reaches minimum width and so on. When all right hand side columns reach minimum size, the user cannot increase the size of resized column any more.
The default sort policy that this TableView will use if no other policy is specified. The sort policy is a simple Callback that accepts a TableView as the sole argument and expects a Boolean response representing whether the sort succeeded or not. A Boolean response of true represents success, and a response of false (or null) will be considered to represent failure.
Refer to the TableView class documentation for details on the default state of other properties.
Creates a TableView with the content provided in the items ObservableList. This also sets up an observer such that any changes to the items list will be immediately reflected in the TableView itself.
items - The items to insert into the TableView, and the list to watch for changes (to automatically show in the TableView).
Sets the new fixed cell size for this control. Any value greater than zero will enable fixed cell size mode, whereas a zero or negative value (or Region.USE_COMPUTED_SIZE) will be used to disabled fixed cell size mode.
value - The new fixed cell size value, or a value less than or equal to zero (or Region.USE_COMPUTED_SIZE) to disable.
Returns the fixed cell size value. A value less than or equal to zero is used to represent that fixed cell size mode is disabled, and a value greater than zero represents the size of all cells in this control.
A double representing the fixed cell size of this control, or a value less than or equal to zero if fixed cell size mode is disabled.
The TableColumns that are part of this TableView. As the user reorders the TableView columns, this list will be updated to reflect the current visual ordering.
Note: to display any data in a TableView, there must be at least one TableColumn in this ObservableList.
The sortOrder list defines the order in which TableColumn instances are sorted. An empty sortOrder list means that no sorting is being applied on the TableView. If the sortOrder list has one TableColumn within it, the TableView will be sorted using the sortType and comparator properties of this TableColumn (assuming TableColumn.sortable is true). If the sortOrder list contains multiple TableColumn instances, then the TableView is firstly sorted based on the properties of the first TableColumn. If two elements are considered equal, then the second TableColumn in the list is used to determine ordering. This repeats until the results from all TableColumn comparators are considered, if necessary.
An ObservableList containing zero or more TableColumn instances.
index - The index of an item that should be visible to the user.
object - The object that should be visible to the user.
column - The column that should be visible to the user.
columnIndex - The index of a column that should be visible to the user.
Note: This method will cancel editing if the given row value is less than zero and the given column is null.
The sort method forces the TableView to re-run its sorting algorithm. More often than not it is not necessary to call this method directly, as it is automatically called when the sort order, sort policy, or the state of the TableColumn sort type properties change. In other words, this method should only be called directly when something external changes and a sort is required.

Righthaven is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker!
In Uncategorized on March 19, 2012 at 6:40 pm
If there is a polar opposite to organizations like ours, it is the intellectual property troll. And in the IP troll heirarchy, one of the trolliest has long been Righthaven, the self-described "pre-eminent copyright enforcer" that sued hundreds of bloggers and other Internet denizens apparently as part of its business model. If the DMLP, the EFF, Public Citizen, and the like are the Justice League, Righthaven would be in the Secret Society of Supervillians.
So it is with no small amount of glee I pass along the news that Righthaven appears to have finally run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible.
On Tuesday, Judge Phillip Pro of the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada signed an order transferring all of Righthaven's intellectual property – some 278 copyright registrations – to a court-appointed receiver, who will auction them off to pay the fees that Righthaven owes its creditors, including defendants who defeated Righthaven in court. Righthaven owes $186,680 in debts, reports the Las Vegas Sun, but it claims it has no cash to repay them.
Now, it seems dubious that these registrations will be able to offset all of Righthaven's financial obligations. The general trend in Righthaven's cases is that the purported transfers of copyrights in Las Vegas Review-Journal and Denver Post articles are shams; the Sun notes that eight federal judges in three states have ruled that the newspapers still hold the copyrights and that Righthaven received nothing in the "transfers." Thus, the registrations may not even be worth the paper they're printed on. Still, they are nifty pieces of memorabilia from a scourge of copyright law – surely it's worth a few bucks to post one on the wall, like the head of a fearsome beast brought low?
(Friend of the DMLP and "First Amendment fetishist" Marc Randazza, whose firm represented several clients sued by Righthaven, also mentioned to Wired and Ars Technica that "Perhaps those who buy the copyrights could issue DMCA notices to the Review-Journal stopping them from redistributing them?" I have to say, that would be funny as all get out.)
And it's not just the receivership order that's raining on Righthaven's parade. Last Friday, Judge Roger Hunt of Las Vegas federal court issueda declaratory judgment in the Democratic Underground's case against Righthaven that the posting of five sentences of a Las Vegas Review-Journal article on the DU website was fair use. The judgment thereby entitles DU's attorneys, the esteemable folks from EFF, to $119,488 in fees that EFF attorney Kurt Opsahl told MediaPost that they would indeed seek – perhaps even from Stephens Media, the owner of the Review-Journal that greenlit its involvement with Righthaven.
So, in the span of a week, Righthaven both lost all of the "property" it used to fuel its business plan, and racked up yet another significant debt to the lawyers aligned against it. Given how its been missing deadlines to file or appear in court, this looks to be just about it for America's favorite copyright "enforcer." Barring a miracle or a successful appeal, Righthaven is an ex-parrot.
