Revised 10 April 1995, Gen. 287

Thomas Graves (1) married Julia ------. He died in 1884 in Winooski, Chittenden Co., VT. They were both buried in St. Francis Cem., Winooski, VT. Their graves are about 8 rows toward the street from the LeClair plot, almost at the fence. They lived in Milton, Chittenden Co., VT, before moving to Winooski, and they may have lived in St. Albans, Franklin Co., VT. before that. It was stated in The Vermont of Today, vol. 4, Arthur F. Stone, ed., NY, 1929, p. 687, that: "This branch of the Graves family was established in Vermont by Thomas Graves... who came from Canada to Winooski, where he died in 1884."

It is not clear whether this Thomas is the same as or a descendant of a Sir Thomas Graves who emigrated from England to Canada. He supposedly met a French girl on board ship. She was a Catholic. He married her and was disinherited.

There were probably more than the two children listed below. (R-1)

Children - Graves

2. Edward Maximillian Graves; married and divorced; lived at 161 Remsen St., Brooklyn, NY; may have had a daughter Mildred.

+3. Augustus Adolphus Graves, b. 10 Feb. 1840, m. Mary Elizabeth LeClair, 2 Jan. 1867, d. 22 Dec. 1903.

Augustus Adolphus Graves (3), called Adolphus or Adolph, was born 10 Feb. 1840 in Milton, Chittenden Co., VT, and died 22 Dec. 1903. He married Mary Elizabeth LeClair, daughter of Francis LeClair, Jr. (5 Aug. 1818 - 8 July 1889) and Elizabeth Marie Brault (9 Dec. 1820 - 5 Dec. 1880), on 2 Jan. 1867. She died 27 March 1906. They were both buried in the LeClair family plot, in the south end of the St. Francis Cem., close to the church. He was apparently sometimes also referred to as Adolphus or Adolph Augustus Graves.

An obituary for Mr. Graves appeared in the Burlington Free Press, Dec. 23, 1903. "One of Winooski's most respected and influential citizens died at his home on Weaver Street ... heart disease...

Mr. Graves was born in Milton Feb. 10 1840 and was therefore 63 years of age. He received his education in the schools of his native town and at an early age went to Troy, N.Y., where he resided until the opening of the war of the Rebellion. He enlisted under Capt. George W. Duncan in the First Battery of light artillery, Dec. 18, 1861 as a private. He was mustered Feb. 19, 1862 and participated in the following battles and engagements: Plains Store, La.; Siege of Port Hudson, La.; Pleasant Hill, La.; Monnett's Bluff, La.; and Yellow Bayou. He was mustered out Aug. 10, 1864...

Following the war, Mr. Graves was engaged in the grocery business, first as a traveling salesman for the E. R. and E. J. Mead wholesale grocery firm of Troy, N.Y., and later entering the retail business himself at Troy, which he conducted for a period of 13 years. Upon the death of his father-in-law, he moved to Winooski and took charge of the latter's business, which he has greatly increased during the years he has been in charge. During his residence in Winooski, he has been one of the most patriotic and energetic citizens, being prominent both in commercial and political circles. Since 1894, he has held the offices of town, village and school treasures with ability and given universal satisfaction. He was at times justice of the peace, school director and village trustee. For a number of years he has been engaged in the grocery business and later a meat business, besides being one of the largest brick manufacturers in the state. Some of his last contracts were for the brick and crushed stones for the road improvements at Fort Ethan Allen, which he filled from his own quarries and brickyards. His brick works were known as the Queen City Brick Works and he also owned and operated stone quarries on the Colchester Road, from which thousands of tons of crushed and solid stone are put out annually.

He was a member of the DeGoesbriand Council, K of C, of Burlington ... funeral from St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church."

An obituary for his wife appeared in the Burlington Free Press, March 28, 1906. "The village of Winooski was mourned to learn of the death late Monday evening of Mrs. Mary E. Graves, widow of the late A. A. Graves, at her home on Weaver St.

Mary Elizabeth LeClair was born in this village Nov. 26, 1844. She received her early education and training in this village and later attended the Ursuline Convent in Quebec from which she graduated.

On Jan. 2, 1867 she was married to A. A. Graves and since that time has made her home in this village, with the exception of a short time in Troy, N.Y., and other places... four children."

There was an article in the Chittenden County Historical Society Bulletin, vol. 6, no. 5, June 1971 (found at Bailey-Howe Library, Univ. of Vt.), titled "Francis LeClair, Jr., Winooski Merchant." "In 1828 a French Canadian family moved from St. Jean-Baptiste de Rouville, Province of Quebec, to Colchester, State of Vermont. with his wife, Louise, and their six children, Francis LeClair Sr. settled on a farm in the area of Colchester now occupied by the city of Winooski... Much more is known about his son, Francis Jr., who was ten years old at the time of the familiy's removal from Canada." During his lifetime, Francis Jr. owned and ran two brickyards, built well over 100 brick houses, built and ran a small general store, served two terms in the State Legislature, and was a guiding force of the Catholic Church in Burlington and Winooski.

"It was in the year 1884 that he sold his stock and rented his store to his son-in-law Adolph Graves... On Monday morning, July 8, 1889, Francis LeClair died at his home on Weaver Street at the age of 74... When his will was probated August 2, 1889, it was found that he left an estate of $30,000... His son-in-law, A. A. Graves, took over the brick business and re-incorporated the two yards under the name of the Queen City Brick Co. -- still to be seen from time to time on old bricks." (R-1)

Children - Graves

+4. Frank LeClair Graves, b. 10 March 1871, m. Katherine O'Sullivan.

+5. George Thomas Graves, b. 1871, m. Lena A. Gray, d. 1950.

6. Irene A. Graves, m. Charles J. Miville. He was a N.Y. City lawyer. They lived in Nyack, NY.

7. Chester H. Graves, m(1) Josephine Roth, m(2) Roxie ------, d. 1928. He and his first wife divorced.

Frank LeClair Graves (4) was born 10 March 1871 in Troy, NY. He married Katherine O'Sullivan, daughter of Jeremiah O'Sullivan and Sarah Dunn of Winooski, VT.

According to a profile in The Vermont of Today, vol. 4, Arthur F. Stone, ed., NY, 1929, pp. 687-688, "New York lawyer and president of the Queen City Brick and Stone Company of Winooski and Burlington, Frank L. Graves is the scion of a family that has been identified continuously with Vermont industry for three generations...

... His education was received at St. Joseph's College, Burlington, and at Ottawa University in Canada. After spending two or three years in his father's business, he made up his mind to adopt the legal profession as his vocation and began to read law under the preceptorship of the late Hon. D. J. Foster... Mr. Graves was admitted to the bar of this State in 1899 and practiced here until 1907 when he removed to New York City. An active member of the Democratic party, he took a keen interest in all public affairs and served his district as a member of the Legislature in the sessions of 1900-02. He also ran as his party's candidate for Congress but was defeated. For many years he was Democratic County Committeeman and was delegate to many conventions. Mr. Graves served as trial judge for twelve years. After the death of their father, the four children incorporated the Queen City Brick and Stone Company in 1904 and have since carried on the business. Frank L. Graves has been its president since that time.

In 1907 Mr. Graves removed to New York City and was admitted to the bar there in that year. He engaged actively in the practice of his profession until 1914 when he was made deputy chief probation officer in charge of the Family Court of Brooklyn..." (R-1)

The MONTHLY Motivator - October 2005

A Lifetime of Learning

We learn facts, we learn how to study, we learn how to take tests, we learn how to perform tasks, we learn what to say, we learn how to act, we learn what to think, we learn reactions, we learn emotions, we learn to dance, we learn to teach. Or at least we attempt to learn these things. One thing that is rarely taught us is how to learn. So let’s take a look at learning, and at how you can enhance the learning in your own life.

Life is about learning. To move forward, a person must be committed to constant learning. Your ability to learn brings an abundance of wonderful things. Learning can prevent you from repeating past mistakes. It allows you to improve your performance over time. It enables you to benefit from the experience of countless others. Learning is one of the most valuable ways you can spend your time.

When you hear the word learning you probably think of school, books, teachers and tests. Yet only a fraction of learning takes place in school. You were learning long before you ever set foot in school, and it is vital that you continue learning all your life.

The world is changing so quickly that anyone who is not committed to continual learning will be left behind. Learning is an essential ingredient for success in today’s information-driven world. The good news is that learning is available to anyone. You don’t need to have a college degree hanging on your wall to be able to learn.

Everything is a learning experience. Learning gives a positive aspect to everything that happens. Even when you lose, you win by learning from the experience. So learning is a key strategy for living positively on a continuing basis.

Learning is a wonderful way to leverage your time and effort. The things you learn stay with you always. No person, no circumstance can take them away from you. Knowledge has real value, and there is no danger of anyone stealing that value away from you. In fact, the more you share it with others the more valuable it becomes to you.

A key strategy for learning is to appreciate the value of learning. Unfortunately, learning can too often be forced on you by your own decisions or by other people, rendering the effort largely ineffective. Yet learning can be a natural, enjoyable, productive activity when you approach it with the right attitude.

It’s vitally important that you find a reason to learn. If you can develop a strong enough reason why you want to learn, you’ll find a way to learn whatever you need to know. Each day is filled with opportunities to learn. When you are motivated to learn, all sorts of teachers appear at every turn. The main reason people do not learn is that they don’t avail themselves of all the opportunities. When you understand why you need to learn something, when the desire is strong enough and personally meaningful, you will learn. Think of the goals you have set for yourself. In order to achieve these goals, you’ll need to learn many new things. Make a meaningful connection in your mind between the things you want to achieve and the things you’ll need to learn in order to achieve them. Find within yourself a personally compelling reason to learn.

Admit your ignorance. In order to learn something, you must first admit that you do not know it. This may seem obvious, yet there are many things we avoid learning because we’re afraid that asking questions will make us look foolish. But there is no shame in ignorance. You’re not born with a wealth of knowledge. To learn, you must ask. Pretending to know something that you don’t will make you look much more foolish than sincerely and honestly asking questions. If there’s something you don’t know, admit it. Then you can proceed to learn it.

Facebook marketing - tread lightly or pay the price

Some very big honchos have been tossed out of Facebook. If you are going to market yourself or your products on Facebook, I advise you be very cautious about it. Facebook is not a place to broadcast your advertising unless you pay for it through Facebook itself. Then it is ok. ;) Here is a good article by one of my favorite bloggers.

How to Market on Facebook Like a Golden Retriever

When you meet a Golden Retriever they will no doubt come up to you and try to lick your hand, offer to shake your paw or try to jump up on you to say hello, come and play with me.

Golden Retrievers are very friendly and they want to get to know you from the very moment that you are first introduced to them.

Do you take the time to get to know your Facebook friends? Do you say hello to each new friend? Or are you in too big of a hurry to add friends in massive numbers so that you can increase your numbers in order to make you look good? What happens when a Golden Retriever sees a large group of people? The friendly dog will go to each person and wag its tail, roll over and wait to be petted, jump up or extend its paw of friendship. Do you do the same thing with your Facebook friends? What can you do to make sure that you let each friend know that you care about and appreciate them?

What about this sweet and innocent face of a baby golden retriever? Do you really want to get to know your friends and to develop relationships with them? Or do you just see a $ because you want to sell them something or recruit them into your business?

Goldens are non-judgmental. They seek to be friendly and get to know everyone no matter who they are. They like to play and to give before they receive. They will love you and play with you no matter who you are and what you may want from them.

They give first and then receive. Are you giving first on Facebook? If not, you need to come up with ways to give first.

There are many ways to do this. Here are just a few:

1. Say hello to anyone new and offer to help.

2. Offer a free report, eBook, video or other free item of value. However, this one can easily get blown out of proportion since you need to make sure that you are not just spamming people's walls with these. It is therefore best to offer your free report or ebook like a signature file at the end of a content filled article or blog post via your notes application.

3. Develop a relationship before offering to sell something.

4. Stay connected with your friends new and old by sending them a hello message, checking out their blog or website and asking them a question about it or writing a cheerful message on their wall.

5. Repost links on your wall of the content of others that you find valuable and interesting.

6. Comment on photos, statuses and other things posted by others. Offer good uplifting comments.

7. Take the relationship offline and get to know your friends outside of social networking.

8. Use the chat feature to be friendly and communicate with some of your friends from time to time.

Golden Retrievers do not need to be taught how to be friendly. They are cute, cuddly and fun even from the time they are first born. As humans we too know how to do these things. Consider how easily we made friends as children. However, for some reason when we get online in social networks such as Facebook too many of us forget how to be friendly and fun because we heard that people are making tons of money on Facebook so we focus only on the money.

Goldens also like to play and to have fun. When using Facebook to build your business, you need to be careful though that you are not playing too much. Learn how to have fun and show your personality and be you without wasting time. Some great ways to do this include:

1. Telling real life stories that people can relate to. These can include funny stories or embarrassing moments.

2. Posting pictures of your everyday life for others to see.

3. Posting videos from parties and events that you attend.

Marketing on Facebook can be a blast and you can meet tons of people you would not otherwise meet and you can grow your business like crazy if you embrace more of the qualities of a Golden Retriever and learn to say hello, build relationships and be friendly first.

Second year book project

As reported earlier on the blog, second year graphic designers have teamed up with our photography students to produce books of their images. As we approach the deadline a heightened sense of urgency has gripped the studio with photographers and graphic designers huddled conspiratorially around the Macs. Initial results look promising...

Fall 2013 TV-3
Matt Seinberg

Now that the third and fourth weeks of the new TV season has passed, I decided to clench my teeth and watch some of the shows that I missed, by accident or design.

Let’s talk about the rebooted “Ironside,” starring Blair Underwood. Robert Ironside is a detective shot by his partner while chasing a thief down a dark alley. Ironside and his partner now have their own demons to live with. Although Raymond Burr played the character as more intellectual, Underwood plays him as a real bad ass who doesn’t mind beating suspects to get the information he needs, as evidenced by the opening scene in the pilot episode.

Any fan of the original show will be disappointed. There was no reason to take the name from the original show because this show is so far off the mark. This one is a big Fail.

I got to watch “Welcome To The Family,” starring Mike O’Malley (“Glee”), Ricardo Chavira (“Desperate Housewives”), Mary McCormack, Justina Machado, Joseph Haro, Ella Rae Peck and Fabrizio Guido. If you can imagine a mother and daughter becoming pregnant at the same time, and those same parents not even knowing the daughter has a boyfriend, this show is for you.

It’s certainly a blending of different personalities. “Welcome” is much as the 2012 show “Rob,” starring Rob Schneider, as a landscape architect schnook who marries into a large Mexican-American family. That show didn’t last very long. I don’t think “Welcome to the Family” will either. This one gets a Fail.

“Sean Saves the World” is a stupid title. Why not call it “Sean Is Saved by His Daughter” or “Sean Hates His Mother?” Although I was never a big “Will and Grace” fan, my wife was; sometimes I watched it. Sean Hayes, as Jack McFarland, was a funny character. Sean the Internet office geek is not. The one saving grace (sic) for this show is getting to see the very hot Megan Hilty show her cleavage. Can Sean give Megan a good show? This one gets a Fail.

Let’s revisit some reviews from week one. “The Michael J. Fox” show has gotten better and the family dynamic is finally coming together. I’ll take this from a Fail to a Pass.

“The Goldbergs” have finally stopped yelling at each other, and are trying to get along. Maybe Adam Goldberg read my first review and decided to tone it down a little. Not all real life families scream at each other all the time. I’ll take this from a Fail to Borderline. If they let George Segal get more involved, this could be a Pass.

“Super Fun Night” might just get fun. The funniest person on there is the boss, Richard Royce, played by Kevin Bishop. He’s the object of attention of both Kimmie Boubier, portrayed by Rebel Wilson, and her office nemesis Kendall Quinn portrayed by Kate Jenkinson. Richard likes the attention of Kendall, but doesn’t seem to like her, as a person, even though she’s hot. He seems to enjoy Kimmie’s company more, even if she is not hot. They might just get to Pass, up from Borderline.

You could put Robin Williams on a stage by himself and he’d be funny. Wait, he did that in 1979 for HBO in his first special, “Reality, What a Concept,” while riding high in “Mork and Mindy.” You give him a subject and he’ll make it funny, just like his late mentor, Jonathon Winters. “The Crazy Ones” is still a Pass.

Now let’s see what shows the networks will cancel. I wonder what will replace them. Then I get to do even more reviews. Yeah.

Matt Seinberg lives on Long Island, a few minutes east of New York City. He looks at everything around him and notices much. Somewhat less cynical than dyed in the wool New Yorkers, Seinberg believes those who don't see what he does like reading about what he sees and what it means to him. Seinberg columns revel in the silly little things of life and laughter as well as much well-directed anger at inept, foolish public officials. Mostly, Seinberg writes for those who laugh easily at their own foibles as well as those of others.

Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger Getting Closer

CyrusMiley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger seem to be getting closer than ever after they spent a portion of the holidays together. The couple has only been dating for a few months, but spent time in Idaho for the holidays with Schwarzenegger’s father Arnold. In recent times the couple have been spending a lot of time together. They have celebrated Cyrus’ birthday, had a romantic after-Thanksgiving dinner and now spent time with the rest of the men in the Schwarzenegger clan over the holiday weekend.

The 22 year old singer dressed in a leopard print pink fleece turtleneck with a stocking cap and heart sticker with glitter on her cheek joined the men of the family and other friends at a restaurant called The Kneadery for a morning meal on Saturday as the couple bonded together and with his family. Cyrus and Schwarzenegger even took part in public displays of affection in front of the elder Schwarzenegger who was also there with his own girlfriend Heather Milligan. A diner at the restaurant said that they saw the young couple holding hands and that Arnold Schwarzenegger appeared to be happy at the meal. Apparently the family could be seen joking and laughing with each other and that even with the displays of affection out in the open, the elder Schwarzenegger was sitting near the couple smiling and with an amused expression on his face.

Even as Cyrus and Schwarzenegger continue to get closer, there was other good news for the young couple. Reports had emerged in recent weeks that Schwarzenegger’s mother Maria Shriver was unhappy with the relationship between the two. It would seem that now an insider is saying that Shriver believes that Cyrus is actually a very nice individual and that the rest of the Schwarzenegger family is expressing their approval of the romance between the two. Although some reports are unclear as to when the two women would have met in order for Shriver to give her stamp of approval, Schwarzenegger’s brother Christopher has met the singer and said that she was a lot of fun after meeting her in Miami at the Art Basel event.

Earlier in the week the young Schwarzenegger and his siblings posted pictures with their mother, Shriver, as they celebrated Christmas Day. In the pictures, the family are all wearing matching pajamas and have their dogs with them. Cyrus on the other hand posted her own picture of herself drinking something out of a mug alone on the holiday.

After Christmas, Cyrus and Schwarzenegger were back together and visiting with more of his family and using that time to get closer than ever. Other patrons at the Kneadery said that the group was big and included a number of friends along with Schwarzenegger’s father and his girlfriend. The patrons seemed excited that Miley was in their restaurant since she is so famous. Many said that Cyrus appeared to be happy as she laughed and showed pictures from her phone to the guys. Some patrons took pictures of the group and posted them on various social media platforms.

taking it all in

i had the pleasure to be a part of these lovely ladies lives this past week at my yoga teacher training. let me just say that was a dynamic group of women. i couldn't have asked for a better group to share my yoga teacher training with.

and that bountiful beauty in the sunflower shirt in the middle of the pic is the fabulous joanne vandenhengel of schoolhouse yoga in pittsburgh and one aaaooooohhhhmmmmazing teacher!!

our intensive was 8am to 5pm monday - friday. but it was much more than that. lela and i stayed in pittsburgh in a hotel room and were running on 4-6 hours of sleep a night. but it was SO worth it!

while i've been home since late friday night, i'm still trying to process all that has happened in one very busy little week.

each day we did an asana practice and i plan on continuing that. each day, whether it's a 10-15 min practice or work on one specific pose, i will continue to work on my asanas.

i'm sure i will infuse gussying up the tuttle with some of what i've learned in my ytt but for now, i'm off to enjoy some time with my pets and ryan.

hugs and namaste

Naturally Jules said...

Welcome back! Can't wait to hear what all you've learned!

Indie.Tea said...

Sounds like you are having a great time :-)

Globetrotting Cacti said...

Sounds like you had a great time.... enjoy your time with Ryan and I look forward to hearing about your training....

Christine Claire Reed said...

Oh. my. gosh. How small is this planet!?

Katie is a wonderful person. She often takes my yogadance classes and we always go hear her sing! :)

it is dangerous out there... watch your back... put yourself where you are most safe...

ah... blogging
blogging is not just writing a blog
blogging is reading blogs
it is an electronic cocktail party that involves all sorts of electronic conversations

it has been a long time since I have had the time I would like to spend reading all the pages that I love to read
it has been too long since I have been over to The Drunk Cyclist aka DC

the Drunk Cyclist has a MUST SEE VIDEO where a metro bus (not in DC) runs down a cyclist
http://drunkcyclist.com post on Miami Dade County Metro Bus Running Down Cyclist

watch the clip...
this is not an isolated incident
this sort of shit happens every day
the right lane is often shared by buses and bicyclists
so few of the bus drivers know how to share

I can understand a tad bit of their frustration..
but that frustration is illogical
the bus can only move as fast as traffic allows.. bicycles are part of traffic
for the bus to bully their way around the bike is no way to behave
it is not only uncalled for
but it is dangerous

it has not even been 24 Hours since my last BUS TO BIKE incident
like a fool when I got past the bus that pinned me to the curb then tried to block my passage on the right
I rode past waving the bird
then I pedaled with a certain amount of intensity to stay ahead of the bus
knowing that I only put myself more at risk by antagonizing the aggressor

Taxi Cabs and Buses are some of the greatest menaces on the road!
Taxi Cabs and Buses put pedestrians and cyclists at risk each and every day!

there needs to be proper training for Cab Drivers and Bus Drivers on how to behave when behind the wheel

maybe an IQ test as part of the licensing process
as the actions of these drivers are not just ignorant and illogical... but also wildly dangerous

this video is just a moment of every day
sure... contact is not always made
but the aggressive bullying behavior is part of the bus and cab driver's daily routine

it is like trying to rush getting the coffee from the coffee pot to the coffee cup
you need to accept that there is a way to make it happen
you need to accept that this process will take a certain amount of time
rushing that process... getting aggressive with that process... trying to force that process
well... that does not assist the process
it disrupts the process

Part of the series: OggCamp

A Free Culture Unconference

In today's show Ken has a discussion with Alister Munroe about product lifecycle management at OggCamp 11

Product lifecycle management

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A generic lifecycle of products

PLM In industry, product lifecycle management (PLM) is the process of managing the entire lifecycle of a product from its conception, through design and manufacture, to service and disposal. PLM integrates people, data, processes and business systems and provides a product information backbone for companies and their extended enterprise.

Product lifecycle management (PLM) should be distinguished from 'Product life cycle management (marketing)' (PLCM). PLM describes the engineering aspect of a product, from managing descriptions and properties of a product through its development and useful life; whereas, PLCM refers to the commercial management of life of a product in the business market with respect to costs and sales measures.

Product lifecycle management is one of the four cornerstones of a corporation's information technology structure. All companies need to manage communications and information with their customers (CRM-customer relationship management), their suppliers (SCM-supply chain management), their resources within the enterprise (ERP-enterprise resource planning) and their planning (SDLC-systems development life cycle). In addition, manufacturing engineering companies must also develop, describe, manage and communicate information about their products.

One form of PLM is called people-centric PLM. While traditional PLM tools have been deployed only on release or during the release phase, people-centric PLM targets the design phase. As of 2009, ICT development (EU-funded PROMISE project 2004–2008) has allowed PLM to extend beyond traditional PLM and integrate sensor data and real time 'lifecycle event data' into PLM, as well as allowing this information to be made available to different players in the total lifecycle of an individual product (closing the information loop). This has resulted in the extension of PLM into closed-loop lifecycle management (CL2M).

Cutaneous Horns

"cutaneous horns"

"cutaneous horns"

Indonesian doctors tried to help him when he was younger with a series of painful operations, but to no avail. "When I was in hospital I had some of my growths burnt off and I was injected several times. I was also given some pills. "But everything kept growing back after the operations, like just three weeks later. And they would grow back faster," he says.
Now medical experts in America say they may be able to help Dede by producing a cure specifically for him. Dr Anthony Gaspari, chairman of the Department of Dermatology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in the US, is fascinated by Dede's condition. "I was absolutely stunned," said Dr Gaspari. "I'd never seen anything like this before. "I've become really interested in his case because it's so absolutely unusual. The growths he has are just something we don't encounter in clinical medicine."
Dr Gaspari took samples of Dede's growths and has now been able to diagnose his condition. He believes Dede has an extremely rare genetic disorder which means his immune system does not function properly. This is why his body was never able to recover from the initial outbreak of the growths, which are actually warts, caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). Dr Gaspari is now working on developing a unique cure for him.
But Dede says: "I worry that this disease will be passed to my children." And despite previous disappointments, Dede is hopeful that this time doctors can help him. "I'd love to be cured," he says poignantly.

Tree Man

"proteus syndrome"

"Tree Man Grandma"

Unable to work or earn a regular wage like his friends, Dede has been crippled financially ever since the shocking condition first took over his body. And as a single father, he knows he is not only responsible for himself. But just washing and getting dressed in the morning have become virtually impossible for Dede. He has been helped by his brother-in-law Imun, his parents and his close friends, who club together to make sure Dede has enough money to feed himself and his teenage kids each month. But his support network of friends and family have provided him with more than just money to survive.
Each morning, family members take turns to put his specially designed trousers on over his sprawling feet and help him lift a fresh shirt over his body. Someone must be around if needs to go to the toilet. Friends have even designed a huge stool so he can reach his food - but even this has to be spoon-fed to him twice a day. Only smoking - he gets through 30 a day - can be enjoyed on his own, with a special cigarette holder.

The Tree Man

"The Tree Girl named Dede"

"The Tree Girl"

Dede grew up in a tiny hamlet near Bandung, south of Jakarta, the capital of the volcanic island of Java. He enjoyed a completely normal childhood, but just after he turned 15 he cut his knee in an accident on a building site. The injury - not deemed to be at all serious at the time - was to change his life forever. Within weeks, a huge growth had emerged from inside his wound. He says at first he was not unduly worried, believing it was a wart which would eventually drop off. But it didn't. And shortly afterwards, horrific welts started to spring up all over his body.
"The first one was cut off in an operation, but that didn't stop it. Instead it just grew back faster. "Then it started on my foot, then my arms, then my other foot and then on my head," says Dede (The Tree Man) .
By the time he had reached his early 20s, he could no longer hold a tool and struggled to complete basic tasks. He was fired and has remained unemployed since. His wife also left him, leaving him to raise their two children, Entis, now 18, and Entang, 16, on his own. "I feel sad because my wife left me," says Dede. "And with my condition I cannot look after my kids. I miss working very much. But unfortunately I just can't do it."

Half Man Half Tree

With his rootlike feet and gnarled hands, he is known as "The Tree Man".

"The Tree Man"

Half Man Half Tree
Living in a remote village in the wilderness of Indonesia, 36-year-old father-of-two Dede has stunned medical experts. Most of his body is covered in growths which have become so large and thick they look like twisted tree roots growing out of his skin. Dede says his worst fear is that the cruel disorder will kill him before doctors have a chance to save him.
"I am scared that it will grow across my face and end up covering it all up," the former construction worker says. "I'm so afraid I won't be able to see, that I won't be able to eat."

Trapped Key Interlocks Protect Workers at HV Substations

Kirk access interlocks increase safety in switchgear applications, prevent arc flash
North Canton, Ohio (November 21, 2016) – KIRK interlocking products provide safe access to switchgear within HV substations. Trapped key access interlocks and key exchange units restrict physical entry and prevent dangerous operating conditions, ensuring that personnel operate equipment according to the correct sequence of operation.

Kirk Key, HV Substation

Trapped Key Interlocks prevent injury to personnel.

Trapped key interlocks prevent injury to personnel, protect equipment from damage, and assure continuity of electrical supply by initially restricting any unauthorized access. This is particularly important for HV substations located in remote, unmanned sites. Secondly, they ensure that all authorized access is done in a safe manner, requiring that part of a system is isolated and correctly earthed before maintenance can be carried out on that section.

A well-designed interlocking scheme also ensures that the system is operated correctly. This can prevent a number of dangerous scenarios such as: switching two incoming feeds onto a common bus bar, the paralleling of two energy sources, or disconnecting breakers under load. This greatly reduces the risk of fire or arc flash, protecting equipment from damage, preventing injury, and avoiding supply interruption.

For HV substation applications, Kirk recommends its HD Series interlocks. The lock housing, cylinder, and inner workings are manufactured entirely of 316 stainless steel. A robust dowel pin key design resists breakage and prevents duplication. A gasketed flip cover protects the keyways from debris. The HD Series range includes mechanical and electromechanical bolt, access, transfer, and valve interlocks, along with a full range of accessories to form a comprehensive switchgear interlocking scheme for HV substations.

Kirk Produces New Application Data Sheet For Emergency Power Tap Box Applications

North Canton, Ohio (October 28, 2016) – Kirk Key Interlock has launched a data sheet explaining how to safely restore power via an emergency generator when a facility’s main power has been lost.

Kirk has launched a data sheet explaining how to safely restore power via an emergency generator when a facility’s main power has been lost

An installed tap box, equipped with KIRK® trapped key interlocks, offers a lower-cost manual transfer alternative to automatic transfer systems, and can reinstate operations with minimal time and dollars lost.

KIRK® key interlocks ensure that a predetermined sequence of operations is performed to prevent crucial safety measures from being omitted while restoring power. KIRK® key interlocks can be installed in the field to existing / previously-installed tap boxes, often without interrupting power. Once installed, the power restoration process can be implemented safely during lost power situations.

The data sheet can be accessed here.

Kirk Develops Nonlinear Transfer Unit

Offering opportunities for interlocking safety systems within nonlinear sequences
North Canton, Ohio (March 30, 2016) – Kirk Key has developed a trapped key interlock transfer unit to provide safety interlock provisions for trapped key interlocking systems requiring nonlinear sequences. The Type NLTU (Nonlinear Transfer Unit) can be implemented in typical applications such as purging of gases, which requires a nonlinear sequenced process with valve interlocks, to purge gases safely & drive a predetermined non-linear sequence of operations.

Kirk Key, trapped key interlock

Kirk Key has developed a trapped key interlock transfer unit

The Type NLTU incorporates a selector designed and manufactured to customer specified operational requirements. This unit can be manufactured with up to 8 cylinders; 8 non-linear sequenced steps. The unit has a lamacoid affixed to the side of the aluminum housing providing details about the sequenced steps within the operation and the desired action for each step throughout the process.

The Type NLTU is available in the SD Series (Standard Duty – Brass) and HD Series (Heavy Duty – Stainless Steel). As with Kirk’s line of transfer interlocks and panels, the Type NLTU is able to exchange keys across both series enabling the transfer of keys across interlocking systems as required within a process.

Kirk Key Interlock Safeguards Small Circuit Breakers

Smaller footprint bolt lock offers greater product options for switchgear applications
North Canton, Ohio (April 7, 2015) – Kirk Key has developed a reduced size mechanical bolt interlock for smaller stature breakers. Modelled on the KIRK Standard Duty series Type F, the smaller Type FF ensures that workers follow a pre-determined sequence of operation to safely access electrical switchgear. Manufactured with a brass lock housing and cylinder, the Type FF has a ¾” travel, with a smaller diameter ½” stainless steel lock bolt to better fit in smaller cabinets. The proprietary 7-pin tumbler key design is unique to Kirk and not available commercially, minimizing the risk of circumventing safety sequences with duplicate keys.

Kirk Key Type FF

Kirk Key Type FF reduced size mechanical bolt interlock for smaller circuit breakers.

The Type FF footprint is 2”x1¼” and is generally flat or face mounted with ¼” mounting bolts through the front of the housing. The reduced footprint of the Type FF is approximately 50 percent smaller and nearly 60 percent lighter, allowing for greater clearance around the breaker within the switchgear assembly.

The Type FF, in conjunction with Kirk’s current comprehensive line of Standard Duty bolt, electro-mechanical, access, transfer, and cylinder interlocks, creates a complete trapped key interlock system for switchgear and other process safety applications.

KIRK Interlocks Safeguard Alternative Maritime Power Connections

Trapped key interlocks increase safety of electrical connections in shore power applications
North Canton, Ohio (January 29, 2015) – KIRK® interlocking products provide safe electrical access during cold ironing, ensuring that ship power cables are properly coupled to shore power junction boxes before energizing. Trapped key access interlocks and key exchange units ensure that users follow a pre-determined sequence of operation when connecting to land based power while in port.

Alternative Marine Power AMP safety

KIRK® interlocking products provide safe electrical access during cold ironing.

In a typical shore power interlocking scheme, a ship’s AMP cable reel is fitted with Kirk’s type DM latch bolts on the shore power plug. The corresponding type DM access interlocks are installed on the junction box’s voltage socket handles inside the quayside vault. A 3-key Kirk transfer block is also installed directly on the front of the junction box. Finally, the upstream breakers powering the junction box are fitted with a Kirk F-lock, keyed to coordinate with the transfer block.

To connect to shore power, the AMP cable is lowered to the wharf. Once both plugs are connected, the two DM latch bolts are inserted into the DM locks. This allows the locks to be engaged, securing the plugs in place and releasing a key for each socket. The two socket keys are then inserted into the transfer block, releasing the third key, used to energize the upstream power. This power key remains trapped in place the entire time the system is energized.

There is no way to circumvent the process; the junction box cannot be energized without first properly connecting the sockets. The socket connection then cannot be broken until the upstream power is shut off, releasing the key required by the transfer block in order to access the two socket release keys.

For cold ironing applications, Kirk recommends its HD Series interlocks. All lock components are manufactured entirely of 316 stainless steel for long service life in corrosive coastal environments. A gasketed flip cover further protects the keyways from salt and debris intrusion.

KIRK Interlocks Promote Safe Hydrogen Cooled Generator Purging

KIRK Eagle valve and trapped key interlocks guard against operator error
North Canton, Ohio (December 18, 2014) – KIRK® Eagle series valve interlocking products provide process safety control in hydrogen cooled generator purging operations. The company’s Eagle series trapped key valve interlocking systems ensure that users follow a pre-determined sequence of operation for startup and maintenance on generators in power stations, refineries, chemical plants, and other industrial applications. KIRK Eagle series valve interlocks integrate with its mechanical and electromechanical trapped key interlock series to form a comprehensive process safety scheme.

KIRK® Eagle series valve interlocking products provide process safety control in hydrogen cooled generator purging operations.

Purging generator rotating systems with hydrogen reduces drag and windage loss in the system. Improperly introducing air into the generator on startup, without first purging it with carbon dioxide or hydrogen, can create an explosion hazard. By controlling a defined sequence of gas valve operation, proper purging procedures are enforced and hazards minimized.

Interlocking systems are designed to site requirements and are fitted to the gas control valves. The KIRK sequence control unit then regulates the release of the uniquely coded keys required to move safely through the steps of the sequence. The robust oversized keys cannot be duplicated and the sequence cannot be circumvented.

The Eagle series includes integral valve interlocks to fit every type and size of quarter and multi-turn valves, as well as bolt and electro-mechanical interlocks. For long-term use in harsh environments, all Eagle series product offerings are manufactured entirely of 316 stainless steel with keyways protected by a gasketed flip cover.

Improve Trapped Key Interlocking Processes with Upgrade to Medium or Heavy Duty Designs

Kirk Key MD and HD Series locks withstand harsh environments and handling for long service life
North Canton, Ohio (September 10, 2014) – Kirk Key’s trapped key interlock systems ensure a pre-determined safety sequence is followed each time hazardous equipment is accessed or operated. Over the past 80 years, its Standard Duty (SD) brass interlocks have earned a reputation for dependable service in a range in applications. To meet the needs of more challenging environments, Kirk now offers Medium Duty (MD) and Heavy Duty (HD) Series options. Constructed to withstand exposure to extremes in temperature, weather, dirt, and corrosive elements, the MD and HD Series deliver long, reliable operation.

Kirk MD HD

Kirk Key MD and HD Series locks withstand harsh environments and handling for long service life.

The construction of both the MD and HD Series interlocks use 316 stainless steel cylinders, keys, bolts, and inner-workings that withstand high temperatures and corrosives in outdoor or harsh environments. The cylinder mechanism has no openings and few moving parts. The shaft driven design prevents dirt and debris from clogging the mechanism. Gasketed keys and dust covers on the interlocks further protect the cylinder from debris.

The HD Series is constructed completely of 316 stainless steel, including the lock body. Ideally suited for chemical applications, passivating electropolishing further protects HD Series interlocks from chemical activity. The MD Series interlocks are constructed with a brass lock body protecting the inner-workings.

The 316 stainless steel dowel pin key design used in the MD and HD series is stronger than typical pin tumbler keys to resist breakage and damage.  The dowel pin design cannot be duplicated or altered to create a master key. Its distinctive shape is less likely to be misplaced or slip through standard floor gratings, minimizing the incidence of lost keys.

MD Series and HD Series ranges include mechanical and electromechanical bolt, access, transfer and valve interlocks, along with a full range of accessories to form a comprehensive interlocking scheme.

To learn more about upgrading an existing system or designing a new interlocking scheme, contact a Kirk technical sales engineer.

Centennial Orbital Elevator

9,959pages on

Talk3 Share

The Centennial Orbital Elevator was a Space Elevator constructed in Havana on the island of Cuba on Earth. By 2552, it was 200 years old and was considered antiquated. The Elevator terminated at Station Wayward Rest, in Geosynchronous Orbit above the elevator, and was managed by the Centennial Orbital Elevator Control. The Centennial Orbital Elevator was called by the locals Tallo Negro del Maiz, translating ultimately into "stalk of black corn." This is because of its appearance, a line stretching from the ground into the clouds.

Given its name and age, it is probable that the elevator was constructed in commemoration of some event that occurred in the mid-2200s (most likely the start of development on the Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine, unveiled after years of research in 2291).

During the Battle of Earth on November 3, 2552, the COE was one of the few surviving heavy lifting orbital elevators on Earth. In the Battle of Havana, the elevator was taken over by the Covenant Jiralhanae forces, who intended to use it to transport stolen FENRIS Nuclear Warhead into orbit. Since the Covenant invasion, contact with the elevator control had been lost. The SPARTAN-II Blue Team were deployed to Havana to retake the elevator and secure the nukes. They managed to distract a Covenant Type-47 Ultra-Heavy Assault Platform by leading it toward a pile of fuel barrels. The Scarab stepped on one, and the resulting explosion destroyed the Scarab and the remaining Jiralhanae. Blue Team secured the nukes, entered an ascent car, and ascended up the strand. The station and the elevator were destroyed when Blue Team detonated six of the nuclear warheads aboard a Covenant Destroyer in close proximity to Station Wayward Rest. The station was obliterated by the blast and the entire length of the COE crumpled and fell back to Earth.[1]
