Kevin Katalinic, Carl Sandburg High School

Carl Sandburg High School's Kevin Katalinic knows he's fortunate to have his pick of some of the country's top colleges for business. The odds are good there's a lucrative job awaiting him someday, breaking down data for brokerage firms. But the 18-year-old hopes to help the less fortunate by using the tools of financial analysis to crack the social and economic problems that beset the poor. "I don't really have monetary goals," said Katalinic, who is choosing between Northwestern University, the University of Michigan and Notre Dame. "I just want to give back to the community." Katalinic has received straight A's each semester during his four years at his Orland Park high school. He's second out of 903 students in his graduating class with a grade-point average of 5.01. "Kevin just really gets it," said Ralph Rzeszutko, Katalinic's AP calculus teacher. "A lot of kids can do calculus, but Kevin really understands it. He knows the answer before I even ask the question." Katalinic's academic accomplishments are even more impressive given that he often was studying on an empty stomach after wrestling practice. The already slim Katalinic had to cut 20 pounds this season to make weight, and he won 19 matches for a Sandburg team that finished third in the state this spring. Katalinic developed his interest in philanthropy on annual trips with members of his church, St. Michael's Catholic Church in Orland Park, to build Habitat for Humanity homes in West Virginia. "The people there are so thankful. A lot of them were doing just fine and then they lost jobs," he said. "I feel like I've been blessed to have just a regular life, and everyone deserves to have a life like that." By Andy Grimm

Enumclaw Welcome Center construction could be around the Expo corner

It looks like Enumclaw is about to welcome the Welcome Center.

After 13 years of starts, stops, baby steps and more stops, the City Council approved a resolution Sept. 9 authorizing staff to enter into a local agency agreement and file the paperwork to get the legal ball rolling.

The Welcome Center is a joint project between the city, the U.S. Forest Service and National Park Service. The plan is for a two-story building located near the Expo Center property between the historic Pete’s Pool fieldhouse and the entry road to the Enumclaw Golf Course.

The Forest Service will occupy the top floor. The price tag rings up at about $3.5 million with the building estimate at $2.3 million and $1.2 for site work.

Mayor Liz Reynolds said, “It’s been a long, arduous journey, but it shows the perseverance, shows the commitment and passion…. It’s been hard and we still have a little bit to go, but this was a milestone.”

Interim City Administrator Chris Searcy gave a brief history of Welcome Center time to the council outlining many of the pitfalls and solution the staff and forest service came up with to get the project over the goal line.

According to Searcy federal highway grant funding adds up to about $3.2 million  from three sources.

The city is required to match 20 percent, $319,355 that has been appropriated in the budget.

The problems over the last few months centered on shortfall for the second floor it appeared the forest service would not be able to find.

After a series of meetings and calculations the gap was closed to a manageable number between $5,000 to $10,000.

The forest service staff stated the cost could be covered by the agency.

Councilman Jim Hogan said he would sleep better knowing the city, “wouldn’t be left footing the bill for cost overruns for the second floor.”

The contracts are expected to take about three to four months to complete the agreements and contracts.

Sumner fastpitch starts seasons behind first year coach | Spring Sports Preview

Megan Gaines is heading into her first year as head coach for the Sumner Spartan fastpitch team. The girls ended last season with a 7-12 record and made it to the early rounds of the state tournament, Gaines said.

“Our expectation is to build off of last year and make it further in state,” she said.

Notable returns to the roster include Amanda Haines, Brittany Biller, Hannah Wilson, Mckenna Eidal, Kirstin Richmond, Jessica Stockdale-Pederson, Chloe Oyadomari and Jamie Lepper.

Haines, Biller and Richmond are expected to make strides offensively and the key defensive players include Stockdale-Pederson, Wilson and Lepper. Eidal and Oyadomari are this season’s pitching and catching duo.

Newcomers joining the team are Amanda Gustafson, Jaylan Wilson, Lauren Mitchell, Sydney Green, Amanda Cline, Emma Froembling and Abigail Woodside.

The girls will play Bonney Lake High School at 2 p.m., March 15 at Sumner.

A trip to the seaside ended up in casualty for two girls whose feet were badly burnt when they stepped on to freshly laid tarmac.

Robert and Hazel Woodley took their children Sophie, six, Jessica, four, 13-month-old Elizabeth and Mr Woodley’s parents to Poole, Dorset, for a week-long break.

They decided to spend the day on the beach at Branksome Chine but had only just arrived when the girls stepped barefoot across boiling hot tarmac on June 11.

They were taken to Poole General Hospital but transferred to the specialist burns unit at Salisbury hospital, in Wiltshire, because their injuries were so bad.

Doctors carried out emergency surgery to remove the tarmac and their feet were left red raw and bandaged.

Mr A Test
and the following specification: Processing the above as follows: $flute = Template::Flute->new( template_file => 'template.html', specification_file => 'spec.xml', ); $flute->set_values({ customer_name => 'Bob McTest', email => '', });; print $flute->process; The resulting output would be:
Bob McTest
In other words, rather than including a templating language within your templates which your designers must master and which could interfere with previews in WYSWYG tools, CSS selectors in the template are tied to your data structures or objects by a specification provided by the programmer. Workflow The easiest way to use Template::Flute is to pass all necessary parameters to the constructor and call the process method to generate the HTML. You can also break it down in separate steps: 1. Parse specification Parse specification based on your specification format (e.g with Template::Flute::Specification::XML or Template::Flute::Specification::Scoped.). $xml_spec = new Template::Flute::Specification::XML; $spec = $xml_spec->parse(q{ }); 2. Parse template Parse template with Template::Flute::HTML object. $template = new Template::Flute::HTML; $template->parse(q{ Cart Example
Name Quantity Price
Sample Book $1
}, $spec); 3. Produce HTML output $flute = new Template::Flute(template => $template, iterators => {cart => $cart}, values => {cost => '84.94'}); $flute->process(); CONSTRUCTOR new Create a Template::Flute object with the following parameters: specification_file Specification file name. specification_parser Select specification parser. This can be either the full class name like MyApp::Specification::Parser or the last part for classes residing in the Template::Flute::Specification namespace. specification Specification object or specification as string. template_file HTML template file. template Template::Flute::HTML object or template as string. database Template::Flute::Database::Rose object. filters Hash reference of filter functions. i18n Template::Flute::I18N object. translate_attributes An arrayref of attribute names to translate. If the name has a dot, it is interpreted as tagname + attribute, so `placeholder'" will unconditionally translate all the placeholders, while `input.placeholder' only the placeholder found on the input tag. Additional dotted values compose conditions for attributes. E.g. `input.value.type.submit' means all the value attributes with attribute `type' set to `submit'. Defaults to `['input.value.type.submit', 'placeholder']' iterators Hash references of iterators. values Hash reference of values to be used by the process method. auto_iterators Builds iterators automatically from values. autodetect A configuration option. It should be an hashref with a key `disable' and a value with an arrayref with a list of classes for objects which should be considered plain hashrefs instead. Example: my $flute = Template::Flute->new(.... autodetect => { disable => [qw/My::Object/] }, .... ); Doing so, if you pass a value holding a `My::Object' object, and you have a specification with something like this: The value will be `$object-'{method}>, not `$object-'$method>. The object is checked with `isa'. Classical example: `Dancer::Session::Abstract'. uri Base URI for your template. This adjusts the links in the HTML tags `a', `base', `img', `link' and `script'. email_cids This is meant to be used on HTML emails. When this is set to an hash reference (which should be empty), the hash will be populated with the following values: cid1 => { filename => 'foo.png' }, cid2 => { filename => 'foo2.gif' }, and in the body the images `src' attribute will be replaced with `cid:cid1'. The cid names are arbitrary and assigned by the template. The code should look at the reference values which were modified. cids Optional hashref with options for the CID replacement behaviour. By default, if the source looks like an HTTP/HTTPS URI, the image source is not altered and no CID is assigned. If you pass a `base_url' value in this hashref, the URI matching it will be converted to cids and the rest of the path will be added to the `email_cids' hashref. Example: my $cids = {}; $flute = Template::Flute->new(template => $template, specification => $spec, email_cids => $cids, cids => { base_url => '' }); Say the template contains images with source `', the `email_cids' hashref will contain a cid with `filename' "image.png". METHODS process [HASHREF] Processes HTML template, manipulates the HTML tree based on the specification, values and iterators. Returns HTML output. process_template Processes HTML template and returns Template::Flute::HTML object. filter ELEMENT VALUE Runs the filter used by ELEMENT on VALUE and returns the result. value NAME Returns the value for NAME. set_values HASHREF Sets hash reference of values to be used by the process method. Same as passing the hash reference as values argument to the constructor. template Returns HTML template object, see Template::Flute::HTML for details. specification Returns specification object, see Template::Flute::Specification for details. SPECIFICATION The specification ties the elements in the HTML template to the data (variables, lists, forms) which is added to the template. The default format for the specification is XML implemented by the Template::Flute::Specification::XML module. You can use the Config::Scoped format implemented by Template::Flute::Specification::Scoped module or write your own specification parser class. COMMON ATTRIBUTES Common attributes for specification elements are: name Name of element. class Class of corresponding elements in the HTML template. If this attribute is omitted, the value of the name attribute is used to relate to the class in the HTML template. id Id of corresponding element in the HTML template. Overrides the class attribute for the specification element. target HTML attribute to fill the value instead of replacing the body of the HTML element. ELEMENTS Possible elements in the specification are: container The first container is only shown in the output if the value `billing_address' is set: The second container is shown if the value `warnings' or the value `errors' is set: list separator Separator elements for list are added after any list item in the output with the exception of the last one. Example specification, HTML template and output:
param Param elements are replaced with the corresponding value from the list iterator. The following operations are supported for param elements: append Appends the param value to the text found in the HTML template. target The attribute to operate on. See below `target' for `value' for details. toggle When the `args' attribute is set to `tree', it doesn't interpolate anything and just shows corresponding HTML element if param value is set. With `target' attribute, it simply toggles the target attribute. Otherwise, if value is true, shows the HTML element and set its content to the value. If value is false, removes the HTML element. So, if your element has children elements, you probably want to use the `args="tree"' attribute (see below for an example). Other attributes for param elements are: filter Applies filter to param value. increment Uses value from increment instead of a value from the iterator. value Value elements are replaced with a single value present in the values hash passed to the constructor of this class or later set with the set_values method. The following operations are supported for value elements: append Appends the value to the text found in the HTML template. hook Insert HTML residing in value as subtree of the corresponding HTML element. HTML will be parsed with XML::Twig. See INSERT HTML for an example. toggle Only shows corresponding HTML element if value is set. Other attributes for value elements are: target Specify the attribute to operate on instead of the tag content. It can be a named attribute (e.g., `href'), the wildcard character(`*', meaning all the attributes found in the HTML template), or a comma separated list (e.g., `alt,title'). filter Applies filter to value. include Processes the template file named in this attribute. This implies the hook operation. See INCLUDE FILES for more information. form Form elements are tied through specification to HTML forms. Attributes for form elements in addition to `class' and `id' are: link The link attribute can only have the value `name' and allows to base the relationship between form specification elements and HTML form tags on the name HTML attribute instead of `class', which is usually more convenient. input filter sort i18n skip This attribute (which can be provided to `param' or `value' specification elements) supports the following values: empty Do not replace the template string if the value or parameter is undefined, empty or just whitespace. E.g. pattern You can define patterns in your specification to *interpolate* the strings instead of replacing them. A pattern is defined by the attributes `name' and `type' and its content. `type' can be only `string' or `regexp'. The interpolation happens if the `value' and `param' elements of the specification have an attribute `pattern' set with the pattern's name. Given this HTML:

There are 123 items in your shopping cart.

  • 1 in category 123
And this specification: 123 In this example, in the cartline and category classes' text, only the template text "123" will be replaced by the value, not the whole element content, yielding such output:

There are 42 items in your shopping cart.

  • 1 in category tofu
  • 2 in category pizza
SIMPLE OPERATORS append Appends the value to the text inside a HTML element or to an attribute if `target' has been specified. This can be used in `value' and `param' specification elements. The example shows how to add a HTML class to elements in a list: HTML: XML: CONTAINERS Conditional processing like `IF' or `ELSE' is done with the help of containers. Display image only if present In this example we want to show an image only on a certain condition: HTML: XML: Source code: if ($organization eq 'Big One') { $values{banner} = 'banners/big_one.png'; } Display link in a list only if present In this example we want so show a link only if an URL is available: HTML: XML: Source code: @records = ({name => 'Link', url => 'http://localhost/'}, {name => 'No Link'}, {name => 'Another Link', url => 'http://localhost/'}, ); $flute = Template::Flute->new(specification => $spec_xml, template => $template, iterators => {links => \@records}); $output = $flute->process(); ITERATORS Template::Flute uses iterators to retrieve list elements and insert them into the document tree. This abstraction relieves us from worrying about where the data actually comes from. We basically just need an array of hash references and an iterator class with a next and a count method. For your convenience you can create an iterator from Template::Flute::Iterator class very easily. DROPDOWNS Iterators can be used for dropdowns (HTML Specification: Code: @colors = ({value => 'red', label => 'Red'}, {value => 'black', label => 'Black'}); $flute = Template::Flute->new(template => $html, specification => $spec, iterators => {colors => \@colors}, values => {color => 'black'}, ); HTML output: Default value for dropdowns You can specify the dropdown item which is selected by default with the `iterator_default') attribute. Template: Specification: Code: @colors = ({value => 'red', label => 'Red'}, {value => 'black', label => 'Black'}); $flute = Template::Flute->new(template => $html, specification => $spec, iterators => {colors => \@colors}, ); HTML output: Custom iterators for dropdowns By default, the iterator for a dropdown is an arrayref of hashrefs with two hardcoded keys: `value' and (optionally) `label'. You can override this behaviour in the specification with `iterator_value_key' and `iterator_name_key' to use your own hashref's keys from the iterator, instead of `value' and `label'. Specification: Template: Code: @colors = ({code => 'red', name => 'Red'}, {code => 'black', name => 'Black'}, ); $flute = Template::Flute->new(template => $html, specification => $spec, iterators => {colors => \@colors}, values => { color => 'black' }, ); $out = $flute->process(); Output: Limit lists Sometimes you may wish to limit the number or iterations through you list. Specification: Template:
Code: $images = [ { image_url => '/images/bottle1.jpg' }, { image_url => '/images/bottle2.jpg' }, { image_url => '/images/bottle3.jpg' }, ]; $flute = Template::Flute->new( template => $html, specification => $spec, values => { images => $images }, ); $out = $flute->process; Output:
LISTS Lists can be accessed after parsing the specification and the HTML template through the HTML template object: $flute->template->lists(); $flute->template->list('cart'); Only lists present in the specification and the HTML template can be addressed in this way. See Template::Flute::List for details about lists. OBJECTS AND STRUCTURES You can pass objects and hashrefs as values. To access a key or an accessor, you have to use a dotted notation with `field'. An example for both hashrefs and objects follows. Specification: HTML: Welcome back! Another one Code: package My::Object; sub new { my $class = shift; bless {}, $class; } sub method { return "Hello from the method"; } package main; my $flute = Template::Flute->new( specification => $spec, template => $html, values => { myobject => My::Object->new, mystruct => { key => "Hello from hash" }, } ); `process' will return: Hello from the method Hello from hash Sometimes you need to treat an object like an hashref. How to do that is explained under the `autodetect' option for the constructor. FORMS Forms can be accessed after parsing the specification and the HTML template through the HTML template object: $flute->template->forms(); $flute->template->form('edit_content'); Only forms present in the specification and the HTML template can be addressed in this way. See Template::Flute::Form for details about forms. FILTERS Filters are used to change the display of value and param elements in the resulting HTML output: The following filters are included: upper Uppercase filter, see Template::Flute::Filter::Upper. strip Strips whitespace at the beginning at the end, see Template::Flute::Filter::Strip. eol Filter preserving line breaks, see Template::Flute::Filter::Eol. nobreak_single Filter replacing missing text with no-break space, see Template::Flute::Filter::NobreakSingle. currency Currency filter, see Template::Flute::Filter::Currency. Requires Number::Format module. date Date filter, see Template::Flute::Filter::Date. Requires DateTime and DateTime::Format::ISO8601 modules. country_name Country name filter, see Template::Flute::Filter::CountryName. Requires Locales module. language_name Language name filter, see Template::Flute::Filter::LanguageName. Requires Locales module. json_var JSON to Javascript variable filter, see Template::Flute::Filter::JsonVar. Requires JSON module. Filter classes are loaded at runtime for efficiency and to keep the number of dependencies for Template::Flute as small as possible. See above for prerequisites needed by the included filter classes. Chained Filters Filters can also be chained: Example template:
This is a note.
With the following value: Update now! Avoid security hazards! The HTML output would look like:
INSERT HTML AND INCLUDE FILES INSERT HTML HTML can be generated in the code or retrieved from a database and inserted into the template through the `hook' operation: The result replaces the inner HTML of the following `div' tag:

Do We Have the Right to Be Forgotten?

To some, however, the idea can be grounded in solid concepts. No matter how solid the reasoning, though, there are debatable and valid arguments against the right. Most business owners know that nothing is as simple as it is made out to be, and this case is no different. Recently, ZDNet’s staff participated in a great debate; Jo Best favored the right to be forgotten, while Steve Ranger argued that there shouldn’t be one. We’ll sum up the points made in the debate and present our own interpretation of the right, so that you can put together your own opinion on the matter.

Every Individual Has the Right to Be Forgotten
This is an argument that is easiest to refute. For the sake of argument, let’s say that a criminal has just been released from prison. They are excited for a second lease on life, but everywhere they go, they’re given strange looks; even people who don’t know them at all. That’s when they realize that the Internet contains all of the information about their crime – news articles, prison records, interviews, et cetera – and it is one big reason why people know who they and what they have done.

Whether or not the criminal’s information should be eliminated shouldn’t be decided by an algorithm. The information might not be relevant, but then again, what defines relevant? The criminal may have paid their debt to society, but whether the information is “relevant” or not is subjective to one’s own opinion.

Requests Are Taken, but Not All Are Granted
This is the meat and potatoes of Jo Best’s argument. The key thing to note about the right to be forgotten is that Google has no obligation to grant all requests that are made. All that is required to happen is consideration. Best argues that someone cannot understand another by examining Google’s search results, but claims that it is a difficult decision to make on Google’s part. Of course, it should be noted that this belief doesn’t support the notion that everyone has the right to be forgotten, but merely defends that it should exist – at least, on a fundamental level.

Using the aforementioned criminal, let’s look at this theory. What if they committed crimes against another individual, and both parties want to absolve themselves of the search results? Perhaps the victim wants to forget about the crime and find resolution. Shouldn’t they have that right? The criminal, on the other hand, may have performed an ugly crime. Should they be absolved of that guilt, or haunted by it for the rest of their life? Now you see why this concept is so tricky.

The Right to Be Forgotten Doesn’t Exist
Steve Ranger isn’t nearly as liberal with his analysis of the right to be forgotten. He thinks that it shouldn’t exist at all due to a “flaw” in human nature. Forgetfulness occurs naturally in human consciousness, but thanks to the existence of data, it is becoming less and less of an issue. Things are growing more “permanent,” so to speak:

… our human limitations, the accidents of our evolution, should not apply to our digital technology. It can implacably store everything, forever; the hardware might die but the data carefully can last forever. And as we record ever more data about our lives, it’s time we got used to it being permanent.

It’s foolish to think we can apply outmoded human expectations about what will be remembered and what will be forgotten in this new age.

Of course, his opinion is his own. Whether or not you agree with him is your choice. What are your thoughts on the right to be forgotten? Let us know in the comments.

Temple of Jerusalem

From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
Jump to: navigation, search

The Temple of Jerusalem or Holy Temple (Hebrew: בֵּית־הַמִּקְדָּשׁ, Bet HaMikdash or Beṯ HamMiqdāš; Arabic: بيت القدس, Beit al-Quds or Arabic: بيت المقدس, Beit al-Maqdis) refers to the Jewish temples located on the Temple Mount in the old city of Jerusalem. Two separate temples were built at this location - the first by King Solomon and then by Herod the Great many centuries later. The temple was a place dedicated to God and a building erected for worship. It functioned as the center of ancient Jewish worship and is believed to have existed on the site where a Third temple would later be built.

In his first revelation of himself to Abraham, God did not command the building of any temple and in the Pentateuch he ordained a tabernacle, a portable structure that could move with the people as they wandered in the wilderness. Not until the time of King Solomon did God permit the construction of a permanent building to be his temple. The law of Moses ordained that sacrifices to God could be offered only in one place, which God would choose for his Name to dwell in, so there should never be more than one place of worship to God. For that reason, worship on the high places is condemned throughout the books of Kings and Chronicles and those kings who destroyed the high places are particularly commended.

The First Temple

Main Article Solomon's Temple

The first temple was built in Jerusalem in the 10th century BC by King Solomon. The site was the one purchased for the purpose by King David, the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite 1 Chronicles 21:18-26, on which he built an altar to the Lord. King David’s Altar, Solomon’s Temple, The Second Temple and Herod’s Temple all stood in the same location.

The first temple, of which no trace now remains, was a magnificent construction which is described in detail in 2 Chronicles 3. The wealth devoted to it may be judged by the amount of gold used just to overlay the most holy place - 600 talents or about 23 metric tons. At the gold price of mid-June 2006, that is £244 million or US$450 million. It was not a particularly large building; its foundation was about 90 feet by 30, or 27m by 9m. However, only the priests were allowed to enter it; the people gathered in the court that surrounded it.

This first temple was stripped of its wealth by later kings of Judah as they tried to buy off foreign enemies and it was finally destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar II, king of Babylonia, in the eleventh year of King Zedekiah, last king of Judah, 586 BC.

The Second Temple

A model of Herod's temple in Jerusalem.
Main Article Herod's Temple

The Second Temple's construction was begun under a decree of Cyrus the Persian of 538 BC. This is the “temple of Zerubbabel”. The second temple survived the turmoil of the Maccabean wars, when it was desecrated by Antiochus Epiphanes, and the occupation of Israel by Rome in 63 BC, when the proconsul Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus violated the sanctity of the Most Holy Place. The second temple was extensively remodeled, with great magnificence, by King Herod the Great, and the building was still not completely finished at the time of Jesus' ministry, when it had been proceeding for 46 years. Although it was substantially a new building, "Herod's temple" is still considered to be a continuation of the second temple. This temple was destroyed by the Romans during the Jewish War in 70 AD and completely dismantled. All that now remains is the Western Wall (the Wailing Wall) which is a retaining wall of the platform on which the temple was built.

Recently, Israeli archaeologists reported their discovery of the quarry from which Herod took the stones that he used to build his version of the Temple.[1]

The Temple Mount

Since the destruction in 70 AD, the site has at one time had a Roman temple to Jupiter on it and now has two Muslim mosques; at present Jews cannot go onto the temple mount. Jews have always prayed to God to allow the rebuilding of the temple; an Orthodox Jew is expected to pray for this three times a day. There is no current likelihood of this happening, and the secular majority in Israel would be opposed because of the horrendous political repercussions, yet there is a group in Israel who have created the vessels and implements that would be needed to conduct the temple sacrifices. Christian biblical literalists, on the basis of Matthew 24 and Revelation, expect that the temple will be rebuilt before the last seven years of this current age. They also expect a third temple to be built in the age of the Messianic kingdom; this temple is described by the prophet Ezekiel but unlike the Genesis account, the passage in Ezekiel might be symbolic. Otherwise it will require a change in the shape of the land to accommodate it.

Dhoni receives ICC Shield

India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni received the prestigious ICC ODI Championship Shield and a cheque for $175,000 for leading his side to the top of the ICC ODI Championship table on the annual April 1 cut-off date. This was the first time since the current ranking system was introduced in 2002 that India finished as the No. 1 ranked one-day international (ODI) side.

David Morgan, former President of the International Cricket Council (ICC), presented the Shield to Dhoni, who also collected the cheque, after India's training session at the Cardiff Wales Stadium. "I am very proud of this huge achievement as being No. 1 is a reward for all of us, but hopefully it is just the beginning. Being No. 1 in the world brings with it a certain respect for the game itself and for the way in which we play the game and conduct ourselves on the field," said Dhoni.

"You have to be consistent to be ranked No. 1 and I think we have reached that level of consistency over a period of time. We have performed very well and I am very proud of what the guys have achieved," added the Indian skipper.

India had toppled England from the top position after winning the series 3-2 in January, and in the 12-month period between April 1, 2012 and April 1, 2013, it won eight out of 13 ODIs and lost five.

"This ODI Shield is recognition of excellence. This is the first time that India has been the top ODI side at the 1 April cut-off date. I want to congratulate India for its dedication and for the ability to entertain us all. I wish the team all the best for the coming year. The importance of the ICC ODI Shield should be celebrated as this is the ICC Cricket World Cup format. To finish as the No.1 ranked ODI side in addition to being the defending champion of ICC Cricket World Cup in 2011, is a wonderful achievement. India will no doubt, therefore, enter the ICC Champions Trophy as one of the sides to watch out for. There could not have been a better fillip for India as it heads into the tournament featuring the eight best ODI sides. I'm sure that Mahendra and his team will be looking forward to maintaining their rank at the top of this format," quoted Morgan.

Fansub Review: [Commie] Sankarea (Episode 01)

C-Tier, Fansub Review — By on April 11, 2012 3:01 am

This post was written by Dark_Sage. He is Dark_Sage.

Twitter YouTube

Let’s see how Commie handled Sankarea.

Release format: MKV (264 MB, 10-bit)

Japanesiness: Japanese name order. No honorifics. “Nii” is translated as “Chihiro” (the brother’s name) instead of something like “Brother”.

English style: American English.

Group website:

Encoding details:

8thsin’s translation critique:

Ji-hi’s screenshot comparisons: N/A

Table of Contents

Visual Quality

Script Quality

Visual Quality

Opening. The karaoke font matches the OP’s font. Nothing wrong with that.

Ending. So one word changes color based on the visuals. Much better than just leaving the whole ED white, so I’m happy with that decision.

It’s almost missable, but they definitely typeset this.

Overall, the typesetting was good when it was done. But enough of it was passed over that the final result is not super impressive.

Script Quality

Opening/ending. These almost seemed to be worked by an entirely different staff than was responsible for the main script. Besides a minor tense disagreement (“And when you wake up, I would be next to you, then and always”), I didn’t see any meaningful mistakes. The song translations were done well enough that I felt I properly understood the meaning of the song and how it fit with the visuals on the screen.

Main Script.

This is not an incorrect translation, but it is a bad translation nonetheless. Allow me to explain.

What you have here is a girl whose only chance to express herself is when she yells down a well. She’s incredibly repressed and can’t say what she wants anywhere else. How did Commie translate this pivotal moment where the audience first gets a glimpse of her character?

Are you fucking kidding me?

Commie, I’m sure your translator is better than me. I don’t know what the fuck “hanawashinomawaru no desu-san” translates to, and I’m sure your TL does. But maybe you should have someone on staff who knows a thing or two about writing in English.

This pisses me off because it’s a fucking retarded line and it’s unacceptable for a group with 40+ members to fuck up a simple thing like this. I doubt everyone over there is drinking lead paint, because that shit can get expensive.

The line should be “Why me?!” or some variant thereof. She bursts into her “Why was I born a Sanka” rant right afterward, making it the perfect lead-in line too.

Tenses are not that hard, you fucking faggots.

“what I’ve always dreamed of…”

“is seeing a really cute zombie.”

The fuck is the point of “all” here? The line didn’t need extending, so what’s the point of tossing in extra words, willy-nilly? Drop it because that word adds nothing and only makes the line clunky.

More like “That so?”

He’s not instantly agreeing here. As a stubborn old man who’s acting somewhat surprised, a timid “Okay.” doesn’t make much sense.

lol. It’s not his demented adventures that they have trouble with. It’s his dementia. There’s a huge fucking difference here and it becomes a plot point later on.

“Sanka High School” is the name of a place, so fucking capitalize it. Come on. I’m sure your editor went to a high school him/herself. How do they not know this?

More like “headmaster”. Yes, there is a difference and it’s pretty fucking important to the plot.

Let me break this down for ya, Commie, since you’re pretty much all Cool Americans like me.

Here in America our principals are hollowed shells of humans, blindly following state-sent orders for education. They’re nothing more than glorified middle-managers. In this case, the headmaster is more of a CEO of a school. He makes all the fucking rules and shit cuz it’s a private school and he can do whatever he wants. This girl, Sanka Rea, is basically a CEO’s daughter. Hot, right?

In America, you wouldn’t give a fuck about the principal’s daughter. But over there, a headmaster’s daughter is a big thing.

So yeah. There ya go. Send her up right.

I’d much appreciate this if it were phrased like a human spoke the line.

“Do you know a 10th-grader named Sanka Rea?”

What? Try human-speak.

“I want to go where I please and be around other people!”

Don’t tell me you guys don’t believe in ?!

This is the 21st century. Get with the times, guys.

Do you not know how to create an em-dash or something? He starts saying her name here…

“Aren’t you San–”

Come to think of it, I didn’t see a stutter in the script except for once, though I definitely heard people stuttering throughout the show. I’m not gonna count it an error, but I am curious as to why this wasn’t done.

I dropped my head in exasperation right here. This is way too fucking vague and poorly phrased, especially since you didn’t allude that this was a repeated circumstance earlier in the show when you could have. (As he notices her going up to the wall, he could say something to the effect of “Again?”)

“So I can tell them about what happened last night?”

Actually, for this to make ANY sense at all, her line at 16:25 should be “Don’t tell anyone about tonight!” Otherwise, it’s pretty much just random gibberish.

“is this the real deal?”

Come on. At least try to /English right.

“By the way, what’s your name?”

“Furuya… it is.”

What the fucking fuck? This is acceptable English in Commieland? You couldn’t even change that last line into a generic “Furuya, huh?” or “So you’re… Furuya.”? :/

“neat freak” is generally the accepted term. I’ll also accept “clean freak”, but why the fuck is there a hyphen here?

It’s funny how liberal and “natural” they try to be here, only to completely miss the obvious comma.

“If at all possible, I’d like to meet a corpse girl, but that doesn’t seem too likely.”

You don’t “live up” to “your word”. You “keep your word” and “live up to a promise”. Way to fuck it up.

I am absolutely certain this is supposed to be something like “I guess you can’t.” considering the previous line is “Can’t you talk to the writer about this?” and the Japanese is something like “Dekinai” or “Tekinai”.

“Yes…”  Fucking really? Nice job, Commie.

Timing Review

Listing on Entire Changes:

Scene Bleeds 2. [1] [2]

Scene Snap Errors: 22 Major Errors.

Linking Errors: 4 Errors total; 2 Major Leading to Bleed; 2 Major.

Styling Error: 1 Styling Error.

Total Errors: 27

Overall Grade: 3/5

The amount of not snapping to scene changes, especially during dialogue between characters was just terrible. It made it hard to watch as subs flashed on and off during conversations between the cast. If it weren’t for this glaring issue, the timing was actually fairly well done in all other respects. The only other issue I have is extended lead-outs and low lead-ins when linking dialogue. Sometimes it just felt really awkward to see a 600ms lead-out to link into another line where there’s like no lead-in. I didn’t really document changes on that cause it was too sporadic. The 2 scene bleeds are pretty cute though. One of them has a key-frame right there to snap onto, so either the timer got lazy, or just didn’t bother to check. The second one was really easy to spot too, cause there was a lot of scene changing in that area.

Watchability: Watchable.

Timing Grade: 3

Visual grade: B+

Script grade: D+

Overall grade (timing results not factored in): C-

The unfortunate thing with the script is that the editing wasn’t entirely shitty. In fact, there were a lot of good points to it. Word choice was varied and strong, and the phrasing was relatively stable. There are a shit ton of lines that were really good that I couldn’t get to point out because of all the bad lines dragging them down.

But that’s the thing. I can’t ignore that there were tons of fuck-ups here. The people appeared to be unfamiliar with the source material and weren’t very thorough, which contributed to some errors. But I almost wonder if sheer incompetence was responsible for the rest. This certainly wasn’t the result of well-learned English speakers collaborating together.

I’m going to hope that the other groups on the show didn’t mess up like Commie did, but we’ll see if that’s the case.

herkz says:

Regarding the song translations: the songs were translated by the person who translates like 99% of the songs we use (fnord). He also translated the episode.

Zumochi says:

So you want to blame the errors on one individual, even though the rest of the staff should’ve been able to notice the lines that didn’t make any sense or didn’t flow properly. Even if they couldn’t think of an alternative, at least they could’ve contacted a TL/TLC to check it.

Aside from that…
I must say that I dislike the OP karaoke. Even if the font color is the same as the credits (which is nice), the border just doesn’t fit. It would’ve been better if they just left it out (just the border of course). That’s personal though.

Xythar says:

I don’t think that was the point of his comment.

w says:

Even it wasn’t, its looks like he’s implying it.

herkz says:

Nope, I’m implying nothing like that. I was just clarifying since dark_sage seems to think other people worked on it.

Also, some of the lines looked much worse without the border (i.e. they were hard to read).

Imperial_Neko says:

Sometimes I feel that it should be manditory to read the source material before you sub a show, especially if it’s a manga that’s been out and translated a while.

puddizzle says:

Dont read scanlations, though. For the most part, they’re pretty terrible.

kyonyUU says:

inb4 we fuck up medaka cuz we didnt read it

lygerzero0zero says:

Looks like a TL didn’t check the TS. The two “poisonous plant” typesets show the same translation, but they’re not the same page (you don’t have to be a TL to tell, either). One of those is step nine (the blotted out page), but the translation attached to it is for step ten (the readable page).

Chiakisama says:

Good to know I wasn’t the only one who thought the TL was a little odd. Though, I laughed quite hard at the comma errors, maybe it’s about time I shut subs off…it’ll probably help my Wapanese anyway

msm595 says:

Can you review Hadena’s version of this? xD. But actually: I need a good laugh.

Imperial_Neko says:

Any review of Hadena’s is a good laugh.

Though, D_S should review SubDESU’s Medaka Box, since it’s apparently akin to shooting yourself or going brain dead. Also wants you to shoot whoever actually watched that release.

Xythar says:

It’s good for a laugh.

Imperial_Neko says:

Yeah I already saw that. This is the most idiotic one I think. They didn’t even try.

Xythar says:

My favourite one is actually the one where Zenkichi declares himself to be tsundere.

AppleJack says:

Translating without knowing the language seems like a plan for success.

tits says:

If this was someone else, I’d just brush it off a a typo, but in this case I kinda doubt it.

kyonyUU says:

“918 student council welcome ceremony”

MetalCap says:

Wow, as the editor I am embarrassed and I fucking should be because you have to be brain dead not to pick up on “918th” TWICE. This week’s release should be better. Unfortunately I don’t speak Japanese so I can’t really do anything about mistranslations except fix the glaringly obvious ones which I have been doing already.

tits says:

Metalcap, I’m pretty sure your Japanese is about as good as your “translator”‘s. Thus, no matter how much effort you bother putting into that release, it’ll still be absolutely bottom of the barrel shit tier. Why even bother? Taking time to make Subdesu releases not look shit to the retards who download them is like spending hours in the kitchen preparing food for your dog.

abit says:

WTF? Seriously, WTF? One can probably translate better via context and looking at the pretty moving pictures.

0.0 says:

@tits Are you saying dogs are inferior to you? That you should spend hours making your own dinner but give your dog can food? You filthy brute!

Beckett says:

Sort of wondering what the point of typesetting something is if the font is too small for anyone to read. At that point I think we’ve crossed the line from useful translation into annoying distraction.

FichteFoll says:

I knew about “I was hard to typeset, so it should be hard to read,” but that’s most probably not the case here.

Who am I? says:

I think the fact that Commie’s doing so many anime this season may have some contribution towards their shitness. But then again, they have more than enough staff to compensate for this.
I love Commie, cos I am one, but their degrading incompetence is starting to have a toll on me.

ryukaiser says:

Everyuu win again this…

Xythar says:

For the record, I downloaded both SFW and Eveyuu to check, and they both subbed the well scream as “No!” too.

I agree that more care could be taken with regards to some of the other points mentioned, and hopefully you’ll see an improvement in that regard from episode 2 onwards.

Dark_Sage says:

Jesus, did they put their B-teams on this too? :/

Imperial_Neko says:

It’s probably cause what she actually screams in the beginning both times is the japanese word for “No” and then says the next line the 2nd time.

Xythar says:

She screams “iya” which can mean a whole lot of things, though “Nooooo” is the standard translation. I don’t really disagree with D_S’s “Why me?!” suggestion or similar interpretations but I can understand why people would go with the safe option since subbing it as anything else would probably result in massive butthurt.

I dunno though, I haven’t read the source material and I don’t work on this show.

0.0 says:

The manga never had that line and started with: “Why was i born as a Sankarea.”

zanon says:

I almost think that it might be best to just not translate that at all, rather then trying to fit it into the semantic box of any singular meaning. As 0.0 pointed out, in the manga she just starts yelling her repressed thoughts into the well, so this anime prelude to that feels more like a scream of pure frustration rather then some particular word. In short, a high-class girl’s “ARRGHH!”, meant to express a variety of emotions.

>I don’t really disagree with D_S’s “Why me?!” suggestion or similar interpretations but I can understand why people would go with the safe option since subbing it as anything else would probably result in massive butthurt.

Agreed on both counts. “Whyyyy” or something else could work too, although “Noooooo” doesn’t seem *that* bad a choice. But even given the vast majority of fansub watchers never have formally applied themselves to learning Japanese, it’s pretty hard not to pick up at least a little bit over the years. “Hai” and “Iya” probably fall into that “anyone who’s watched more then a little recognizes it” category, so you may be right that diverging much would provoke some cognitive dissonance.

tits says:

I assume that’s why so many otherwise decent fansubs translate “hai” as “yes” even when it sounds horrendously unnatural. Idiots who think the 5 words they’ve picked up have 1:1 translations that should always be used, and cry “mistranslation” otherwise are cancer to quality subs.

Xythar says:

Yeah. I personally don’t believe in catering to what the listener can understand when editing, but I would say most people still do.

zanon says:

I think there’s a balance to be struck there, and it can vary both in terms of style and target audience. I can’t remember which general subbing guide mentioned it, but things like at least vaguely matching sub length with speaking length where possible seem to be common suggestions, and that is directly geared towards keeping the audience on board. Even with absolutely zero understanding at all, if a viewer hears a long bit of speech, and then the sub just tosses out a couple of words, they’re going to suspect they’re being dicked around with. Choosing wording is generally very subjective of course, particularly given how often words have many different meanings, but I do think being the general ballpark of what “seems right” factors into flow.

To take an immediate example, I think gg’s sub overall of the first episode of Jormungand is fine. They’re known for being more liberal and there’s inherently nothing wrong with that. But towards the end in her awesome beat-down speech Koko starts off the final bit with the actual English word “Last” (ラスト), and gg subs that as “Now, then.” Sorry, I do think that’s pushing it. I could have swallowed “finally” even, but just using the actual English “Last.” would have worked reasonably. That’s the sort of thing that makes people think “hey, wait a second,” and breaks immersion which I don’t think good subs should do (applies to both ends of the spectrum).

Bulletmagnet says:

At least somebody should have put in “Do not want”

Allifreyr says:

Could you review Evetaku and Hatsuyuki subs on this one? :)

FichteFoll says:

I’m disappointed about the typesetting. Some sings could be way better with just spending a few additional minutes. Really.

Oh, and I don’t think deserves a typeset, looks like some “logo” to me.

Fall 2005

Administrative Details

There will be a homework given out each Wednesday and it will be due at the beginning of the next class. Homework is to be submitted before you come into class into Prof. Chakrabarti's mailbox, located just beyond the glass doors by the reception counter.

A few important notes on the homework assignments:

Late Homework Policy

Any homework submitted late carries an immediate 20% penalty (unless you have a very good excuse and have discussed it with me in advance), and an additional 10% penalty per calendar day after that. No homework will be accepted after the next homework is due, or after the final. In this course, if you do not do homework on time, you will soon find yourself overwhelmed, so please be regular with your work.

Challenge Problems

Occasionally, the homeworks will contain one or two "challenge problems". They are to be thought of as "extra credit" work and will be tallied separately from regular score. If you end up on a borderline between two grades at the end of the course or are being considered for a citation, this extra credit will count in your favor. However, failure to solve challenge problems will never be counted against you because grades are assigned on the basis of regular scores.

You should work on these challenge problems if you find them interesting and you think that they might teach you something. It is unwise to skimp on regular homework problems in order to attack these challenge problems, though.

Working Together and the Honor Principle

Students are encouraged to work together to do homework problems. Groups who work well together in class should consider working together to do homework. What is important is a student's eventual understanding of homework problems, and not how that is achieved.

The honor principle applies to homework in the following way. What a student turns is as a homework solution is to be his or her own understanding of how to do the problem. In preparing the draft of the homework to be turned in, a student may not consult the notes or homework solutions of another student or any solutions to homework problems in past offerings of the course posted on the web. Students may consult any source (including those just forbidden for the final draft), except for another student's final draft, in learning how to do homework problems. Students must state what sources they have consulted, with whom they have collaborated, and from whom they have received help. However students are discouraged from using solutions to problems posted on the web for previous offerings of the course, and as just stated, must reference them if they use them.

The honor principle applies to exams as follows. Students may not give or receive assistance of any kind on an exam from any person, including the professor.

Students with Disabilities

Any student with a documented disability needing academic adjustments or accommodations is requested to speak with the professor by Oct 10. All discussions will remain confidential, although the Academic Skills Center may be consulted to verify the documentation of the disability and advise on an appropriate response to the need.

Be Merry, Be Bright! - Week of Dec. 19th

"Maybe Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store.  Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more."  ~ The Grinch

Dec. 25th seemed to sneak up on us this year since Cam was in school through Dec. 22nd.
On Christmas Eve, Oma and Opa arrived in the afternoon to celebrate our annual trek to Thornapple Covenant Church with the Raisch family.  Cam loves the service, especially all of the singing now that he recognizes most of the carols.  After the 3:30p service, we dined with our awesome friends at their home where we enjoyed homemade chicken noodle soup and bread, fruit, and plates and plates of delicious holiday cookies.
Afterwards, Cam requested some game playing time.  His latest favorite is charades.  Everyone had a turn and our game enthusiast enjoys guessing as much as he does the acting part.

The night before Christmas everyone was snug in their beds except for our nine-year-old who contracted a cold seemingly that night.  Although he had terrible sleep, he was in a great mood Christmas morning!  Being the routine boy he is, we had breakfast before opening presents.
It seemed that each of us, Cam, Chris, Jane, Oma and Opa were just as excited to see others uncover a gift given as we were to see what each of us received.
One of our annual offerings to Oma is a picture calendar from Cam.  He assists with the design and it's always a treat when she discovers what it is.

New games kept Cam busy as he tried out a Police Line-Up board game as well as a Scavenger Hunt.

Cam's largest present this year was a new sled which can't be used yet due to a big meltdown but we're certain he'll be able to take it on its first run sometime in January.

After a delicious dinner and homemade apple tart dessert- compliments of Oma and Cam, we all piled into the van for our Christmas light viewing.  Thanks to an ingenious website, the best displays are listed by area and address making it easy to plot a course.

This year we didn't take any pictures while enjoying Christmas- we were too caught up in the moment.  Being with our family and enjoying their presence versus presents is truly what we are thankful for.

Camology Quotes:

Dealing with a cold is difficult, but we found the silver lining in Cam's comments regarding his illness.

It feels like there is a hundred and fifty things in my nose!

If you feel like your ears or throat hurt, I can take you to the med center.
It's just my nose, Mom.
The med center won't give you medicine for just your nose, Cam.
You need to call my real doctor.

Let It Snow! - Week of Dec. 12th

"The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quite different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found? "~ J. B. Priestley

The white stuff quickly accumulated and the only unfortunate outcome was the freezing cold temperatures precluding any playtime in the snow.

Thankfully, we found indoor activities to keep us busy.  Early Christmas presents arrived for Cam and not a moment too soon with the frigid weather.  A new spelling activity from Auntie Leslie kept us busy creating a game out of letters and puzzles.
videoAuntie Karen sent a gift that keeps on giving every month- Little Passports. There are multiple options to choose from and Cam will be discovering the USA with monthly activities, games, science experiments & more!
He was beyond excited to see the contents of his first passport package and has asked to work on it every day.

Cam opted not to visit Santa in the mall this year but did want to send a letter.  Luckily, our local D&W store has a special mailbox just for delivery to the North Pole.
His request was short and to the point..."Dear Santa, I would like a squish ball for the water like the one from swimming class.  Thank you.  Merry Christmas.  From, Cam."  His questions, however, were endless regarding the delivery method and route taken from the Santa mailbox.

Amanda and Cam entertained each other in the evening when Chris and Jane finished up some holiday shopping.  Baking delicious treats is a favorite for these two as noted by the plate of warm cookies.  Can't you just smell the goodness?

Camology Quotes:

This year Cam discovered that one radio station in town plays Christmas music 24/7 through the holidays.  While in the van or in his bathroom, he requests us to tune in and "turn it up, please."

Mom asked, What is your favorite kind of music?
Christmas music!
Why is it your favorite?
Because there are pretty voices and I like all of the songs.

You're Getting Sleepy - Week of Dec. 5th

“Foolishness sleeps soundly, while knowledge turns with each thinking hour, longing for the dawn of answers.” ~ Anthony Liccione

Winter has settled in and the falling snow blanketed the ground giving the illusion of a soft, downy white cover.

The summer lawn mower undergoes a transformer move and becomes the snowplow for the winter months.
Cam likes to supervise his dad while he plows the driveway.

Oma came to stay and Christmas baking along with decorating cookies was the highlight of their time together.  Cam did insist on taste-testing their creations just to be certain they were working with the proper amount of sprinkles and m&m's.

In the Weatherford household, sleep has been alluding us.  Cam has been waking up on and off a few times every night.  Legend says when you can't sleep it's because you're awake in someone else's dream.  So, if any of you see Cam awake in your own dreams, please tell him to go back to sleep...

We finished up our last December lesson with Ms. Laura.  The pool at Mary Free Bed is warm and spacious.  The biggest benefit - teacher and student have the water to themselves.  Cam worked on some back floating, front strokes, and utilizing a water logged ball to create some sort of sprinkler system.  This seemed to work well for splashing his Oma!

Back at school, Cam's teacher, Ms. Kathy, requested that he bring in snow boots on a daily basis by sending an email to Jane.  She has been teasing Cam that he needs the boots so she can throw him in a snow bank. (They've been talking about this for a few weeks now.)

Ms. Kathy told Cam there was finally enough snow.
As they were discussing the possibilities, Cam asked his teacher an all-important question, "What is a snow bank?"

Sweet gift from Auntie Leslie
Camology Quotes:

Cam is a people-pleaser.
He likes to see a positive reaction when he says or does something.  One morning after a bit of restless slumber, he announced to his parents:

"I will sleep tonight like it's nobody's business!"
What exactly does that mean, Cam?
"It means like nobody has to worry about me."

Oma's Birthday and the Elf - Week of Nov. 28th

It's not often you're able to surprise someone, really surprise them.  We were honored to be able to celebrate Oma and her birthday in person on Dec. 1st as we provided an unexpected appearance at dinner in Muskegon.
She doesn't want us to mention her age, but she does share a birthday with Woody Allen and he is one year older than she is.  Cam was super excited about the evening as we made it to Olive Garden right before Oma and Opa.  When Oma spotted us from the hostess stand, you could tell we were successful!  Many thanks to Opa for his part in keeping the secret.
Cam checking out dessert
at the next table!

It was no coincidence that Cam chose our restaurant for the evening.  Olive Garden now has an tablet for ordering, playing games and paying your bill.  Pretty high tech stuff and highly irresistible for a nine-year-old.
Another unexpected treat was a free kids meal since Cam found the "elf" hiding up high even though he told us "it doesn't look like the other elf on the shelf."

Our family only began the "Elf on the Shelf" tradition a couple of years ago.  Cam named the elf Gerrit and this season, Cam's been especially interested in finding the red-suited guy every morning to see where he shows up.  It's quite curious, though, how the elf may be connected to something that a parent needs to use, such as headphones.  Since the elf cannot be touched or he will lose his magic, the ear device then stays connected to the elf all day long.

'Gerrit' was found holding a blue sharpie and upside down one morning in an empty container.  A note on the plastic house read "Help I fell in and can't get out now!!! Please turn container over."
Upon seeing this entire scene, Cam looked at his parents and said, "Now how did the elf write the note?"  Hmmm, yes, curious minds want to know.
Chris was convinced (and persuaded Cam) that the elf had the ability to ink the request from the inside of the container while upside down.  That's one crafty elf!

As we celebrated Oma this week, we're constantly reminded of all she has helped instill in Cam... a love of music, enjoyment of books, and appreciation of baking.  Here's to you, Oma!
“Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.”
~ Dr. Seuss, Happy Birthday to You!

Camology Quotes:

As colder temperatures are upon us, the family moved seasonal coats upstairs for easier access.
Chris tried on a warmer jacket one morning and asked Cam if he liked it.
"It suits you, Dad!"

Giving Thanks - Week of Nov. 21st

Thanksgiving should be a daily occurrence...not the turkey dinner but the reminder to give thanks every day and be grateful.  We are grateful for so many people in our lives.  Our family, our friends, (many of whom we consider family) and those we are connected to and have met only because of Cam.  In some way, as you are reading this, know that you have enriched our lives and we are simply thankful.
We did celebrate the holiday with the traditional offering of a stuffed bird dinner with all of the fixings.  Jane ordered up a 23 pound turkey for 7 people which possibly, just maybe was beyond what was needed.  Regardless, Opa and Cam worked to make the stuffing, stuff the turkey and prepare it for cooking. Cam took his supervisory duties quite seriously.

Healthy gift from Oma & Opa!
We were so happy Aunt Mary and Uncle Ray joined us to partake in this celebration.  As we all went around the table and said what we were thankful for, everyone was filled with emotion and gratitude.
Do we still look stuffed?
Cam's thankful speech..."I am thankful for my family and my friends, especially my parents.  Amen."
If he hadn't been so hungry, we're quite certain his speech would have been longer.  In all of the activity, we neglected to get a group picture to capture the moment but we won't soon forget the delicious meal, great company, and fun conversation.

With our tree all decorated, we decided to try a family photo the day after Thanksgiving to test out the technology on Jane's watch to remotely control her phone for taking pictures.  The first snapshot clearly shows some of us looking at the watch for the countdown.
To work off some of our delicious food, Cam enjoyed a swim at the Y with his parents and was excited to see a local trooper parked outside upon departure.  He wondered what the officer was doing there and noted that since he was in uniform, he probably wasn't there to work out.

Also over the weekend, we had a quite a chuckle, or is it a gobble, over the fact that turkeys seemed to be surrounding our house.  These two in the front yard actually jumped up on the porch and looked in our windows.  Possibly they were feeling a bit brave with the holiday in the past.

Camology Quotes:

Our son certainly knows how to pull some heartstrings...
Amanda asked Cam before Thanksgiving what he was thankful for.
"I am thankful for you, Miss Amanda."

May We Help? - Week of Nov. 14th

“You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.” ~John Bunyan
“When we give cheerfully and accept gratefully, everyone is blessed.”  ~Maya Angelou
“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”  ~John Holmes

What a difference a day makes.  The white stuff didn't stay on the ground but it seems Michigan has the uncanny ability of bringing snow when it's least expected.
We did have many welcome events this week, though.  Oma arrived to stay with us for two nights and Cam couldn't have been more excited.  The pair worked on some mending together and Jane thinks Cam will easily exceed her sewing skill set very soon.

The Weatherford family brought a new artificial tree home and decided to place it in the living room versus having it remain in its box for 2 weeks.  Since Oma was with us, we were able to put the ornaments on in record time.  Jane had to throw in a little silliness by having the decorators wear special reindeer headbands...Auntie Karen should recognize these!  Oma always brings her smile and abundant love and we are always grateful for her visits.

Cam and Amanda wear the same style shirt on certain Fridays to participate in the LINKS Project Unify program at Meadow Brook Elementary.  Amanda is now a volunteer aide at Cam's school as part of her college education.  It's pretty exciting for our nine-year-old to see his sweet friend Amanda during school sometimes and after school!

Chris and Cam welcomed the solution to a task given by the May We Help organization.  Chris was asked to devise a way for a young boy with limited mobility to use a video game controller.  He and Cam were trying to determine how to build a new device when Chris realized if he could stabilize the unit, the boy should be able to use it.  Some unique foam material and handmade wooden frame did the trick. (More Photos of end result)

Incidentally, those of you reading this blog help keep it going.  We now have over 500 posts and without your support, Jane wouldn't have the need to continue to produce.  Thanks to all of YOU for helping us!

Camology Quotes:

Jane was asking Cam for some additional help.  And his reply, instead of the typical standard one...
"Your wish is mine."

Leaving Fall Behind - Week of Nov. 7th

"Each moment of the year has its own beauty" ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

We've had the mildest of autumn seasons in Michigan.  Although there has been some colder days, by and large, the need for a winter coat hasn't surfaced yet.
Chris and his son were busy raking leaves into the woods, which is a definite bonus versus the tedious task of bagging.  Cam's ingenious dad figured out a way to situate the leaf blower on Cam's chair so as he drove forward the leaves would blow towards Chris' rake.  The team effort paid off and the duo cleared all of the fallen foliage in the back yard.

Cam's swimming lessons started up again with a slight change.  This fall he is taking solo lessons with Ms. Laura at the new Mary Free Bed therapy pool.  The setting is quiet and the pool is very warm.  Cam, our routine schedule boy, had many questions for his swim teacher including, but not limited to, the following:  "what happens if you are late?  what do you do if you get here early?  how do you get here?  which way do you take to get home?  how many lessons do you teach in a day?"  Amidst all of the questions, there was still time for instruction.  Cam's favorite activity is using the floating weights, allowing him to kick his legs while holding onto the bar.
Of course, there is always time for a few giggles before the end of the lesson!

One of our favorite weekend activities was seeing Mr. Ken, Amanda's grandpa, (a.k.a. "Papa") at a rehab facility following knee replacement surgery.  He was so excited to see Cam.  We brought pictures from the Halloween parade which Ken proudly displayed.  He thinks it's pretty cool that Cam likes to call him Papa, just like Amanda.

And our Ms. Amanda introduced Cam to a guinea pig for the very first time.  This pet belonged to a friend of hers and has such an auspicious name... "Priscilla Pigsley" who has all of the same colors as Cam's cat, Stella.  Cam was quite certain, though, that Priscilla and Stella may not get along too well.

Will & Cam
Camology Quotes:

Buddy Will and Auntie Jo joined us for dinner Saturday night.  We unsuccessfully tried to pass off sweet and sour chicken as chicken nuggets.

Mom:  Do you think you and Will are going to be friends forever?
"Yes, Mom!  Those were not really chicken nuggets.  I did not think so either  :-).

Treats Come in Different Packages - Week of Oct. 31st

“Rest and be thankful.” ~ William Wordsworth

Halloween seems to have lasted for a month around our house but October 31 was the last hurrah.
Oma stayed with us to share in the last of the festivities and we were so grateful to her extra helping hands and warm heart.
Monday was a half day of school for Cam and the kids maybe tackled a solid hour of work before getting ready for the costume parade in the gym.
Principal Shaw led the way with Cam, buddy Liam, and fellow Meadow Brook students following.  They take one lap around the gym where parents, relatives and friends are seated, and then proceed to the hallways past every classroom in the school.  The principal asked Cam and Liam to hang out so that they could see all of the other kids and people could stop and say hi.
What one may assume could lead to pandemonium in a grade school with kids from kindergarten through fourth, is actually a very organized, fairly quiet and well-behaved event.

That same afternoon, we made a trek to visit the Grand Rapids Police Department.  Cam and his parents wanted to thank them for all of their support and surprise showing of the real SWAT vehicle at the parade.  Oma and her grandson had whipped up some delicious chocolate chip cookies divided into multiple containers and Jane had printed off some pictures from the parade event for the officers.  It was a surprisingly warm afternoon and many policemen came outside to greet Cam, even the Chief of Police himself!

Trick or treating was still yet to come!  It had already been quite a full day so grandma and grandson took advantage of some cozy couch time to sneak in a quick rest.

After an early supper, we were all rejuvenated and ready to tackle the candy gathering tradition.

We began the evening one
street over, to spend time with our good friends and neighbors.  The weather remained mild which meant lots of kids were out accompanied by smiling parents.  One of our favorite costumes was worn by a sweet girl who adorned her pants with packages of "smarties" candy- thus, her outfit was named "Smarty Pants!"  Her brother, shown with purple balloons was a bunch of grapes- so creative.  Buddy Emma was dressed perfectly as a black cat, complete with whiskers, a tail and ears.  Cam had a bucketful of candy upon arrival home and his most memorable Halloween yet!

Over the weekend, the weather was too good to resist sticking our toes in the sand maybe one last time until spring.  We traveled to Oma and Opa's on Lake Michigan to spend just a couple of hours in the afternoon.

The sun shone brightly and we watched one of the neighbor boys actually dive in the lake (we were assuming on some sort of dare) while we chose to only stroll next to it as we ventured north a bit.  The beach has expanded a great deal since the end of summer and it's always an odd feeling to not see lots of people on the shoreline.

We enjoyed many "treats" this week...having Oma with us, meeting many from the Grand Rapids Police Department, participating in a school parade, spending time with friends and appreciating a late fall day on Lake Michigan.  One might even go so far as to say..."better than chocolate."

Camology Quotes:

Cam has been trick-or-treating for quite a few years now and has decided that he definitely prefers the chocolate treats to anything else.  This year, however, he encountered something different.  At one of the houses he was given a small bag of Baked Lays Potato Chips.  After leaving the house (and being out of earshot), he declared...
"Mom!  This is a really weird thing to give for candy!"  :-).
