Traveling Typewriter font is a typeface that emulates the look of old-fashioned typewriters. It is a popular choice for designers who want to create a vintage or retro feel in their designs. In this article, we will explore the history of the Traveling Typewriter font, its usage, and why it continues to be a popular choice among designers today.
History of Traveling Typewriter Font
The first typewriter was invented in the 1860s, and it revolutionized the way people wrote and communicated. Early typewriters had a limited number of characters, which meant that typefaces had to be designed specifically for use with typewriters. These early typewriter fonts were simple, with monospaced letters and no serifs.
As typewriters became more widely used, typefaces became more varied and complex. In the 1950s and 60s, typewriter manufacturers began to produce machines with more advanced typefaces, including the Traveling Typewriter font.
The Traveling Typewriter font was designed in 1994 by American typographer Carl Krull. Krull was inspired by the lettering on old-fashioned typewriters and wanted to create a typeface that captured the charm and nostalgia of those machines.
Usage of Traveling Typewriter Font
The Traveling Typewriter font is a popular choice for designers who want to create a vintage or retro feel in their designs. It is often used in posters, advertisements, and book covers to give a sense of nostalgia or to evoke a bygone era.
The font is also commonly used in digital media, particularly on websites that want to create a unique and memorable look. It is often paired with other vintage or retro design elements, such as old photographs or illustrations, to create a cohesive visual style.
Why Choose Traveling Typewriter Font?
There are several reasons why designers continue to choose the Traveling Typewriter font for their designs. Firstly, it is a versatile typeface that can be used in a variety of contexts. It is particularly well-suited to designs that require a vintage or retro feel, but it can also be used in more contemporary designs to create a sense of contrast.
Secondly, the Traveling Typewriter font is easy to read and legible even at small sizes. This makes it a practical choice for designs that need to convey information quickly and clearly.
Finally, the Traveling Typewriter font has a distinctive and memorable look that can help brands to stand out and create a unique identity.

Presley recorded a cover version of "Any Day Now" on 20 February 1969 at American Sound studios, Memphis, Tennessee. This version appeared on his acclaimed album of that year, From Elvis in Memphis. Although not released as a single in its own right, the song appeared as the B-side to Presley's #3 US pop hit, "In the Ghetto", which appeared on the same album.

Tablets have found new life in people’s homes as coronavirus lockdowns have increased the need for devices that can handle entertainment, education and even some work, too. And in just the past few weeks, the go-to tablet on the market — Apple’s iPad — has gotten a whole new lease on life, too. In addition to delivering a new Apple iPad Pro model, Apple has also updated the iPad’s operating system to allow trackpad support. And while we’re not retiring our laptops yet, the new features are more promising for the iPad’s future as a productivity device than anything it’s added in years.
Elsewhere in tablet land, Microsoft has been rumored to be launching new Surface models this spring — but it’s unclear if that will still be happening in a post-coronavirus environment. Samsung is still cranking out Android models. And Amazon remains the best option for cheap and kid-friendly tablet models.
Here are the best tablets available right now. All of these products (or previous versions thereof) have been fully reviewed or anecdotally tested by CNET editors. This story was published earlier,

“We do not live in the past, but the past is in us.” U.B. Phillips
Such is the dedication that begins Thomas Sowell’s Black Rednecks and White Liberals, an astonishing book that demolishes the foundation of progressives’ racist accusations and their vision of history. Dr. Thomas Sowell, a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institute at Stanford University, brings his cool, reasoned perspective as a black American to the hot, unreasoned perspective of Black Lives Matter and their legions of ‘woke’ colleagues.
(All quotes in the text are from Black Rednecks and White Liberals.)
Violence as a way of life
“Centuries before ‘black pride’ became a fashionable phrase, there was cracker pride—and it was very much the same kind of pride. It was not pride of any particular achievement or set of behavioral standards or moral principles adhered to. It was instead a touchiness about anything that might be even remotely construed as a personal slight, much less an insult, combined with a willingness to erupt into violence over it,” Sowell writes.
Unfortunately, he laments, this violence among blacks has returned to social approval. In my ‘white’ upbringing in the 1940s and 1950s, not being able to control your emotions and lashing out in anger was frowned upon, denigrated as something children and ‘immigrants’ would do. Now, black rappers brag about their violent reactions to being ‘disrespected’, neither possessing nor pursuing any qualifications for respect in the first place. In other words, they are thugs and should be treated as such in a civilized society. “What is painfully ironic is that such attitudes and behaviour are projected today as aspects of a distinctive ‘black identity’, when in fact they are part of a centuries-old pattern among the whites in whose midst generations of blacks lived in the South.”
The most lastingly notorious of this violence was lynching, Sowell writes, that many attribute to race and slavery. But “…Southern vigilante violence had been a tradition for more than a century (before the Civil War) in North America and even longer back in the regions of Britain from which crackers and rednecks came”. Even the burning cross of the Ku Klux Klan can be traced back to the feuding clans in the hills and dales of old Scotland.
And the laziness that went with it
Hand in hand with violence went laziness, with many white Southerners “too poor to keep slaves and too proud to work”. Violence and laziness—the perfect formula for failure, as anyone with an IQ of 80 or higher would recognize. Unfortunately, “Much of the cultural pattern of Southern rednecks became the cultural heritage of Southern blacks, more so than survivals of African cultures, with which they had not been in contact with for centuries.” And this redneck culture, shared by southern whites and their British forebears as well as southern blacks, was manifested by ‘less resourcefulness’, ‘disorganized family life’ ‘lax sexual morals’, ‘recklessness’ and ‘aggressive and violent tendencies’.
One of the saddest and most unfortunate consequences of this culture is the disdain for education. And not only a disdain, “but perhaps most dramatically is a hostility toward those black students who are conscientious about their studies, who are accused of ‘acting white’”. Perhaps the biggest failure of Obama’s presidency—and there are many in competition—is his utter failure to condemn this attitude and encourage and support education for blacks in every way, shape and form. But Obama had to be cool and gangsta rap was cool. Intellectuals, too, and the welfare state have contributed to legitimizing this ‘rebel against the man’ culture among blacks. Lower test scores and less achievement have to do with the colour of your culture, much less to do with the colour of your skin, and redneck culture destroys the ladder as surely as if it burned it down.
It didn’t start out that way
After the Civil War, white intellectuals of the US Northeast and black leaders such as Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois, in spite of much divergence in their views, “…agreed that what was most needed for the advancement of blacks in the post-bellum South was the replacement of the culture prevailing around them and among them by a new imported culture.”
And that culture was the one stemming from the British Enlightenment, the very one that had informed the American Founders—one “of the right instincts, of morals and of hard work”.
The schools and colleges established in the South based on these principles educated the majority of future black leaders—among them W.E.B. DuBois, Langston Hughes, Mary McLeod Bethune, Thurgood Marshall and Martin Luther King Jr. This suggests that it’s not just individual ability that contributes to success, but also the culture surrounding the individual that matters. In the first century following the Emancipation of blacks, this culture was the dominant one, the principles of which all Americans strove to live by.
But in the 1960s, that started to change—ironically, at the same time as the Civil Rights Movement began to take off—and the change accelerated rapidly after our calendar turned over into the third millennium. “Today, the culture that is celebrated in much of the media and in the schools is not the culture that succeeded, but the culture that has failed—the black redneck culture.” For the social justice warriors who celebrate this culture, the races are equal: both blacks and whites who live within the redneck culture lag far behind those who don’t.
With friends like these…
White liberals have aided and abetted the redneck lifestyle among blacks. They applaud the welfare state that supports moral laxity and promiscuity, with single mothers of children with different ‘baby daddies’ and absent fathers who contribute little or nothing to their children’s upbringing. It supports the violence and crime of young men who can afford to never grow up and be responsible for their actions. It has given black redneck culture a new lease on life. White liberals, particularly prominent intellectuals, “have turned the black redneck culture into a sacrosanct symbol of racial identity…Blaming others for anything in which blacks lag has become standard operating procedure among white liberals.”
In stark contrast, the white liberal leaders—that is, the upper-middle class where the vast majority of them reside—marry within their class, stay married to the same spouse, are ambitious for their children, celebrate achievement by themselves and by their children. And these white liberals are dominant in academia, government and even business. In other words, in treating blacks as victims, white liberals are serving their own interests: They keep blacks out of the competition as they virtue signal their faux concern.
With friends like these, who the hell needs enemies?
White liberal guilt
In a presentation at Amherst College, Dinesh D’Sousa brilliantly rebutted a student earnestly—and wordily—arguing that white Americans must make reparations to black Americans for stealing their labour by enslaving them. For context, this young man is one of the 1,850 students enrolled in this prestigious liberal arts college in Massachusetts; for 2020, it received 8,406 applications and accepted 1,161—you can’t get much more exclusive than that.
D’Sousa, whose ancestry is Indian, cited the fact of wave after wave of conquerers of the indigenous Indo-Aryan tribes—who themselves had migrated from various surroundings lands—swept over his native land: Persians & Greeks in 500-300 BC; the Maurya Empire in the 4th and 3rd centuries BC; numerous dynasties in the next 1,500 years, including the Islamic Turks conquering parts of this vast land in the 700s and the Mughal Empire in the 1500s; and finally the British Empire, which began its economic conquest in the late 1700s. Now how do we sort out who owes what to whom, he asked. And who is the final arbiter of this division of the spoils?
Then he did something that I have been longing to see when the leftie crusaders attack conservatives: He turned the tables on this self-righteous, truly privileged young man by demanding, Are you—not your parents or peers or others of any description—willing to give up your place at Amherst to a black or indigenous person? That’s the true test of your morality. Don’t pontificate on what others—or society or government—should do: First, do it yourself. Everything else is value-signalling. Bravo!
Slavery in every chapter
White liberals and redneck blacks blame all blacks’ woes on blacks being enslaved in the US South, and, by extension, Western civilization. Slavery has been in every chapter of the human story since its beginning, and anyone with a smattering of historical knowledge knows that. But “Often it is those who are most critical of a ‘Eurocentric’ view of the world who are the most Eurocentric when it comes to the evils and failings of the human race…Clearly, the ability to score ideological points against American society or Western civilization, or to induce guilt and thereby extract benefits from the white population today, are greatly enhanced by making enslavement appear to be a peculiarly American, or a peculiarly white, crime.”
Long before Christopher Columbus’ ships hove into view, slavery was an established institution in the Western Hemisphere. And most were enslaved by their own race: “Before the modern era, by and large Europeans enslaved other Europeans, Asians enslaved other Asians, Africans enslaved other Africans, and the indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere enslaved other indigenous peoples of the Western Hemisphere. Slavery was not based on race, much less on theories about race.” Ironically, it was Western civilization that led the way to abolishing slavery. But you would never know this from Black Lives Matter or their social-justice-warrior brothers and sisters in arms.
Again, the historical illiteracy of so many about so much is shocking, especially when America has more university graduates than ever before. “No institution (slavery) of comparable age and worldwide scope has ever disappeared over almost the whole planet, leaving so little awareness of how and why it vanished or so little interest in that question.” Academia is in the dock, with its high-priced professors delivering tainted goods. “When facts about racial or ethnic groups that are both known and relevant are deliberated suppressed because they would undermine a particular vision, doctrine, or agenda, then history is prostituted and cannot serve as a check against visions, because facts have been subordinated to visions.”
Irony piled on irony
Ironically, “This worldwide struggle went on for more than a century because the non-Western world in general resisted and evaded all efforts to get them to root out this institution that was an integral part of their economies and societies.”
Ironically, “the principal impetus for the abolition of slavery came first from very conservative religious activists—people who would today be called ‘the religious right’.”
Ironically, “the region of West Africa from which Kunte Kinte (the hero in Alex Haley’s Roots, the myth that is history to many Americans, black and white alike) supposedly came was one of the great slave-trading regions of the continent—before, during and after the white man arrived.”
Ironically, “Suppressing the slave trade across the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea was much harder and took much longer than suppressing the Atlantic slave trade.”
But facts have a hard time penetrating postmodern ground. “Despite all this, those with an instrumental view of history have managed to turn things upside down and present slavery as an evil of ‘our society’ or of the white race or of Western civilization.”
The lessons of history should be used to teach us how to go forward, not how to pick at ancestral grievances and inflame them to tear a society apart. The lesson that emerges from the history of slavery is “that no people of any color can be trusted with unbridled power over any other people, for such power has been grossly abused by whatever race, class, or political authority has held that power, whether under ancient despotism or modern totalitarianism, as well as under serfdom, slavery, or other forms of oppression.” In other words, the principles upon which the United States of America was founded, which grew out of British history, which grew out of Roman history, which grew out of Greek history—in short, the culture of Western civilization.
Read the book
In 291 pages, Thomas Sowell does a masterful job of presenting the history of slavery and exposes the effort to demonize and blame Western civilization for all its ills—and every other ill known to man, it seems to me. He uses historical facts to counter the leftist vision of Western civilization as the fount of oppression and discrimination—a vision that creates victims of us all with the ultimate goal of being the biggest victim of all. What an ugly vision! What a despicable goal!
Read the book to better defend our Western civilization from the enemy within.

A large-scale survey of private tenants has attempted to uncover what renters feel about the sector and their individual properties in light of the Coronavirus crisis.
The survey was of 3,100 tenants aged 18 to 65 and was undertaken by Vaboo, a PropTech platform that creates and manages tenant rewards and engagement platforms for letting agents.
Vaboo asked if Covid-19 meant that renters would stay in their current property longer: some 43 per cent of respondents answered No and a further 29 per cent hadn’t decided.
A big majority – over 66 per cent of tenants responding – were worried about the idea of renting for life.
The survey also uncovered that 47 per cent of tenants said they were still likely to buy after their current rental with 31 per cent likely to buy in the next two years.
But the platform says that not all tenants are pulling out the stops in terms of saving to purchase: only 26 per cent responded that they were saving to move in the next three to four years and a further 20 per cent would be in a position to buy in around five years.
Almost a quarter of tenants surveyed said that they would be renting long term.
Vaboo says: “With positive engagement, great communication and superb customer service, this gives agents huge potential for long term relationships, regular income and reduction in void periods.”
Another 28 per cent are still unsure of what they want to do in the current climate.

Naturally the whole point of the trip was to photograph Pied Wheatear. Cape Kaliakra was the place, I remembered a brief encounter in 2012 that left we with my only photos to date, but as I improved they left me wanting more. Better. As you know I am obsessed with this family of charismatic birds, and I remembered that here, on the Cape, they were quite fearless as there are so many people wandering around.
My memory served me well, the place was packers. Coach parties, tour groups, families. Frequently visitors walked almost up to the bird I was photographing, and then saw me and stopped and wondered what I was doing. Meanwhile the bird flew off of course. It soon came back, it had a very clear series of favoured perches on top of ruined buildings (the Cape is an archaeological as well as a military site) and was quite the poser. I am going to put most the images on a different website, but a taster is here. I am quite satisfied now, my Pied Wheatear gallery is vastly improved. One day I will publish a book just of Wheatears - I just need to pluck up the courage to visit some fairly inhospitable places first.

What a marvellous summer we are having, though the lawns are brown and we hear too many people complaining about the heat. A brief thunderstorm and downpour (as we rowed a boat ashore against tide and wind last week!), and now we are back to warm summer. Mind you, the only dull, cold day with a bit of drizzle (17 June) was the day of our summer barbecue and theatre!!! Of course the excellent show went on and we had an audience of about 130 – a bit smaller than most years, but the event was very much enjoyed by everyone. Both open air concerts (3 June and 15 July) were in brilliant warm weather, with picnics and dancing on the grass. We don’t yet know the dates of our summer events in 2019, but will let you know as soon as possible.
We returned from another lovely trip Morocco in March and revisit SOUTH MOROCCO 30 October – 17 November this year. There are just two vacancies for this tour if anyone is looking for an autumn visit to Marrakech, Essaouira and the Atlas mountains. And we can announce a return to NORTH MOROCCO from7-29 March 2019. We will be visiting at a lovely time of year: last year’s tour in March was a great success with the great bonus of the spring flowers in the Rif Mountains and valleys. Many of the valley floors were carpeted, literally carpeted with colours – blue, orange, dark red – all set against the dark mountain slopes and the blue of the sky. Of course the places we visit are fascinating – the souks of a variety of exciting towns and cities: Tangier, Chefchouan, Fes, Meknes, Rabat and others, and we will be staying in small characterful riad hotels in the centres of ancient medinas rather than faceless modern hotels. And best of all, we will have the company of the delightful Omar, our friend and guide for many years now, who has become the friend and favourite guide of so many Travellers. Do join us for an exciting tour with the bonus of an early spring.
Our tour to SOUTH INDIA – Kerala and Tamil Nadu back in January was another great success and our next tour, which focusses on small remote places in KERALA (19 Jan – 9 Feb 2019) is already fully booked. We hope to plan further tours to India in 2020. Please let us know if you may be interested.
John Osborne’s tour to IRAN was reportedly his most enjoyable ever, despite, or perhaps because we had refused President Trump who wanted to join us. So many of the group contacted us to tell us of their appreciation of John and Karen and the wonderful tour. John’s next tour to IRAN: A PERSIAN SPRING will be 11-25 April 2019. There are already a number of bookings for the tour which is bound to fill up quickly.
The list below includes escorted tours offered by our colleagues at Prestige Holidays. Jill and I joined the Sicily tours a year or two ago which was just excellent. The whole programme looks exciting and Prestige will offer a modest discount to Travellers’ Club members!
Please remember that we can plan a private tour for you, your family or friends, or your clubs & societies - to suit your dates, your pocket and your pace. We have recently planned private tours in BURMA, LAOS & CAMBODIA, INDIA and other destinations. Please spread the word about all the tours - tell all your friends and invite them to next year’s summer party.

Kia says it plans to skip hybrid technology and introduce a fully-electric line-up in Australia starting with the new e-Niro SUV in 2019.
On public debut at the Paris motor show this week, the South Korean maker’s second electric vehicle is planned to appeal to a greater audience than the Kia Soul EV, packing a long driving range, relatively short charging time and contemporary styling into a mid-size SUV package.
“If everything goes through - and the odds are it will - by the time we get dealerships fully trained up it will probably launch towards the end of next year,” Kia Australia media and communications manager Kevin Hepworth told Drive during the European-spec car’s debut in Paris.
Built on the same electric vehicle platform as the Hyundai Ioniq EV, the e-Niro uses a 64kWh lithium-ion battery pack to provide 485km range from a charge – calculated on the more stringent WLTP combined cycle. More importantly for city-dwellers is that the e-Niro claims an impressive 615km range when driven around the inner suburbs, eclipsing efforts by many current electric-vehicles. Charging will take around 42 minutes to reach 80 per cent capacity on a fast charger.
Helping to maximise its range are Coasting Guide Control and predictive Energy Control that use satellite navigation to suggest when the driver should use regenerative braking.
Kia Australia expects the e-Niro will be one of the most convincing electric models on offer in our market but doesn’t expect the new technology to sell in large numbers just yet despite a potentially attractive price point.
“It’s going to be more expensive and there’s not an EV on the road which isn’t. The difference is it will probably have the best range of any current EV, certainly SUV type EV in Australia.
“It won’t be disproportionately expensive, that’s one of the things - it has to be affordable - but we won’t sell many of them and it will be more of a stocking filler than a mainstream car.”
The 64kWh model that Australia will receive produces 150kW and 395Nm of torque from its front-wheel electric motor, accelerating from 0-100km/h in 7.8 seconds. A lower capacity 39.2kWh model is available, with reduced range and power, but it is unlikely for our market.
Despite the e-Niro joining an established hybrid and plug-in hybrid range globally, there are no plans to introduce any of those models in Australia and Kia says the Soul EV will never make it to our shores.
“We never considered the Soul EV,” said Hepworth. “It will never ever see the ground in Australia.”
“We’ll end up with more than one EV. It was a conscious decision not to get involved with hybrids and to stay out of that and go straight to electric and wait until the right one came along.
“Clever idea hybrids, but they are a bit of a con job when you look at the numbers on them.”
The e-Niro, using the same electric platform as the Hyundai Ioniq, will have access to some charging infrastructure though Kia is positive that its long-range will overcome the usual electric vehicle range anxiety.
“Dealerships will definitely have charge points for that, there’s no point servicing a car if there’s no fuel for it no matter what that fuel is," added Hepworth.
“I don’t think a lot will change by then [when they arrive] but with a 487 or so kilometre range and a short 20 to 80 per cent refill you can do Sydney to Melbourne, stop for lunch recharge it and get to Melbourne on that charge.
“It gives you a range and if it’s only running around time, easy peasy."
The e-Niro will go on sale in Europe later this year and Kia Australia is confident it will launch locally by the end of 2019.

A Gaviota firefighter died Saturday of what officials said appeared to be a massive heart attack.
Colleagues remember Robert Moseley as a man who questioned everything, but had a spiritual side to him that once compelled him to travel to another country so he could have a better view of a total solar eclipse.
Moseley, “Bob” to his friends, collapsed while he was clearing vegetation and brush on the Wildland Training Course behind Fire Station 18 in Gaviota. Coworkers saw Moseley fall and gave him CPR while an ambulance and a helicopter rushed to the scene.
Paramedics tried to revive Moseley on the way to Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital but Moseley’s barely responded. Shortly after he arrived at the hospital he was pronounced dead. Friends and family are still waiting for the results of an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death, however Moseley’s body indicates a massive heart attack, Capt. Charlie Johnson of the Santa Barbara County Fire Dept. said.
The death of 51-year-old Moseley is the first on-the-job death the department has experienced since 1967, Johnson said.
“He was very passionate about the things he got involved in,” Johnson said. “He didn’t hesitate to ask why we were doing a particular project, whereas some of us just accept our assignment without questioning the reasoning behind it. He never went into anything blindly.”
Johnson said the department conducted a counseling session on Sunday, where coworkers came together to share their emotions.
Moseley was hired as a reserve firefighter in Buellton in 1982 and was hired full-time two years later. He worked in both the Los Alamos and New Cuyama stations before he was promoted to fire engineer/inspector in July 2000 at Fire Station 18.
“This is a very sad and difficult day for all of us in light of the shuttle Columbia disaster and now the loss of one of our own firefighters,” Fire Chief John Scherrei said in a press release on Saturday.
Moseley is survived by a son who attends Santa Barbara City College. Johnson said arrangements for a memorial service are still in the works, but friends, family and coworkers have been gathering in remembrance.
“Bob was a very personable guy,” Johnson said. “His strength was his integrity.”

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that can lead to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). HIV attacks those cells of the immune system that protect the body.
For 2012 the UNAIDS reports 2.3 million new infections and 1.6 million deaths. 1)
The Boehringer Ingelheim Corporate HIV/AIDS website
(1) UNAIDS report on the global AIDS epidemic (Status: September 2013)
A non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), indicated for use in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatmentof HIV-1 infection. Resistant virus emerges rapidly and uniformly when Viramune® is administered as monotherapy. Therefore, Viramune® should always be administered in combination with at least two additional antiretroviral agents.
Viramune® may be used alone as a single oral dose to the mother during labour and a single oral dose to the infant within 24 hours after birth for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV-1 pregnant women who are not taking antiretroviral therapy at time of labour. Where other antiretroviral medicines are accessible, the single dose Viramune® regimen should be combined with additional effective antiretroviral medicines (as recommended in international recognized guidelines).
A non-peptidic protease inhibitor blocks the viral protease, an enzyme needed to complete HIV replication.
Aptivus®, co-administered with low dose ritonavir, is indicated for combination antiretroviral treatment of HIV-1 infection in highly pre-treated adults and adolescents 12 years of age or older with virus resistant to multiple protease inhibitors. Aptivus® should only be used as part of an active combination antiretroviral regimen in patients with no other therapeutic options.
This indication is based on the results of two phase III studies, performed in highly pre-treated adult patients (median number of 12 prior antiretroviral agents) with virus resistant to protease inhibitors and of one phase II study investigating pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of Aptivus® in mostly treatment-experienced adolescent patients aged 12 to 18 years.
In deciding to initiate treatment with Aptivus®, co-administered with low dose ritonavir, careful consideration should be given to the treatment history of the individual patient and the patterns of mutations associated with different agents. Genotypic or phenotypic testing (when available) and treatment history should guide the use of Aptivus®. Initiation of treatment should take into account the combinations of mutations which may negatively impact the virological response to Aptivus®, co-administered with low dose ritonavir.

This is the layout that I did for day 4 of the J. Waters prompt which was to use white cardstock as a canvas and add everything to your patterned paper. The journaling says: "Whenever my family gets together, you can count on one thing- GAMES will be involved! We all have our favorites, but mom and I definitely prefer SCRABBLE."

Today's approach from J. Waters was to separate two vertical pictures using strips of pp. I love J. Waters' style, but after several days of semi-emulating it, I had to play with some serious patterned paper.
These photos are from this year's Valentine's Day. The journaling says, "My wonderful husband! Jacob's birthday is Feb. 11th and my mom always tries to come and visit for his special day. That means that she is usually still with us for Valentine's Day. Not only does Ben bring me flowers for this day of love, but he always remembers to bring my mom a bouquet too. Isn't he the greatest!"

OBSERVER Lifestyles Editor
Anyone who is fascinated by tales of spirits still dwelling in their old haunts needn't look any further than Fredonia. Settled in the early 1800s, the village is home to Civil War heroes, the mother and sister of "Mark Twain," a sprawling cemetery containing the remains of the last man hung in the county, and many ghost stories.
OBSERVER Photo by April Diodato
Forest Hill Cemetery on Lambert Avenue in Fredonia, where the Harvest Moon Cemetery Tours are held
"Fredonia is a really strong town for supernatural folklore," said Mason Winfield, a "paranormal, supernatural historian" and author of several books on Western New York hauntings. Winfield visited the village several months ago to do research on his latest work, "The Paranormal Almanac of Western New York," and has amassed "a whole file" on Fredonia alone.
I have lived in the Fredonia for most of my life, and have been fascinated by its haunted history since one of my closest elementary school friends told me that she had spotted an apparition in her home. Located on Risley Street (originally called Garden Street), the house is estimated to have been built in the 1820s or '30s and part of a parcel of land owned by the Risley family.
While at her home for a sleepover, I kept my eyes open the whole night through when she told me that she had once seen a woman walking through her room in the middle of the night, disappearing right through one of the walls. She had heard that it was where the home may had been adjoined to the larger home next door.
It wasn't until years later that I did some research. Late one night in my apartment on Risley Street, I stumbled upon an article on the house which mentioned that it was very possible that it been connected to the house next door; old records showed that there was only one large home on the site. A shiver crept down my spine.
I have never encountered a spirit myself, but I have been in search of any local lore pertaining to the undead since that sleepless night years ago. With Halloween just a few days away, I have spent many hours attempting to substantiate the many claims I've heard over the years, searching for facts among the fiction - and what I've found are stories. Some inquiries have lead to a dead end no pun intended such as at the 1891 Fredonia Opera House; Executive Director Rick Davis said that he hasn't witnessed anything paranormal in his tenure. Some sources would only divulge their experiences on the condition that they remain nameless.
Though some tales will have to remain shrouded in mystery, here are some that I have been able to shed some light on.
Honors for the most famous ghost story in the village probably go to the White Inn, the site of a horrific murder-suicide that claimed the lives of Helen and Jack Maloney she, bludgeoned by her husband, and he, succumbing to an overdose on barbiturates. Along with the couple, Isabelle White, the last to live in the home, is said to pay frequent visits to her old stomping grounds, particularly room 264. Dr. Squire White built a wood frame house at the site in 1811, which was destroyed in a fire, according to the White Inn's website. A more grand structure was built by his son in 1868, and expanded in 1919 to become a hotel.
Old Main, forever connected to a tragedy that occurred a century ago, is another Fredonia landmark with just as many if not more accounts of strange, hard-to-explain experiences that continue to occur.
The land for the academy was contributed by Hezekiah Barker in 1821 and the project quickly commenced. The academy was opened for classes in 1826. In the 1850s, the period of the academy's highest enrollment, the building was remodeled and doubled in size.
It fell into financial disrepair during the Civil War, closing in 1867, and then was succeeded by the Fredonia Normal School, which opened the following year. The young ladies attending the school were encouraged to board at Old Main.
A fire tragically struck the school on Dec. 14, 1900, claiming the lives of six female students and one janitor. The blaze broke out at about 6 a.m. on a Friday morning - beginning in the basement boiler room - and the fire quickly spread through the entire structure. Three days later, the seven bodies were dug out from the debris and a mass funeral was held, attended by nearly the whole village. The remains of the seven who perished were buried in one grave at the Forest Hill Cemetery.
"Ever since (the fire), people have reported hearing things and seeing things in there for many, many years after that, because of the fact that the new school building was built right on top of the old one," said Town of Pomfret Historian Todd Langworthy. "The old one was almost completely destroyed by the fire, there was almost nothing left."
Only the gymnasium built in 1899 remained. Old Main was rebuilt only three years later, and Langworthy said that rumors of a haunting started shortly thereafter.
The new Old Main was used for students of the Normal School and the Campus School, a training school for teachers attended by many Fredonia youngsters, until Mason Hall was opened in 1941. The Campus School remained until its closure in 1967, according to an OBSERVER article published Aug. 28, 1979, and the university abandoned the building in 1973. It fell into a state of disrepair, and several proposals were considered until work began in 1979 to convert the building into 91 units of senior housing, which is One Temple Square today.
On the 74th anniversary of the fire, 16 young men and women spent the night in the cold, desolate building, in search of spirits. The quest was detailed in an OBSERVER story published Dec. 14, 1974. According to the article, "most all of the 16 persons present experienced 'something' during the night." One participant, Tobie Hewitt, told the OBSERVER that she heard distinct voices several times during the morning, "Especially a girl's voice singing." Unearthly footsteps were also heard.
"There were two of us walking down a corridor (all of the individuals worked in teams of two or more during the experiment) and we both heard three other sets of footprints," Hewitt said.
On the Harvest Moon Cemetery Tour held Oct. 19, passengers on the horse-drawn trolley were told that someone continues to bring flowers for those who lost their lives on Dec. 14, 1900, but no one is sure who. More than 100 years have passed, the tour guide mused, so what could be their connection to the deceased?
"Flowers are still left on the tombstone for the seven people that lost their lives in the Normal School fire and I have never witnessed who it is that leaves the flowers there," said Mary Jane Starks, organizer of the Harvest Moon Cemetery Tours held each October in Fredonia. "If you go to the cemetery now you will find flowers atop the black granite stone memorializing the final resting place of the young ladies that died in the fire."
Sure enough, just off the main road in Forest Hill Cemetery on Lambert Street, dying flowers adorn the grave.
George G. Grover graduated from Old Main in 1954 and later became a university police officer. For approximately two months prior to the sale of the building, the officers were assigned to check Old Main nightly, inside and out.
"We would always try to do the Old Main checks prior to darkness since the building did not have electric at that time," Grover said. "The neighborhood kids had gained access to the building and were using the basketball court, which we attributed to some of the noises, but it didn't matter if it was light or dark, the building always had noises like kids playing or running in the halls and doors closing, but we never caught anybody actually in the building."
Mike McEntarfer of Fredonia, a Campus School alum who organized its first reunion in July, did not have any ghostly encounters as a student. His mother, a sharp, 88-year-old resident of One Temple Square, has had some experiences in the building that would leave hair standing on end.
"She wears hearing aids during the day - and at night she takes the hearing aids out when she goes to bed," McEntarfer said. "She has told me that when she is in bed at night (and totally unable to hear any other sounds) that she sometimes hears people talking and having a conversation. She is unable to actually make out what they are saying - but it is clear they are not talking to her. They are having a conversation."
THE SPIRITS OF ST. ANTHONY'S
On a horse-drawn trolley tour during the Victorian Dazzle Days (now called Fredonia History Days) taken several years ago, the trolley took a turn down Moore Avenue. The guide told of the sound of children being heard in the former St. Anthony's school building while none were present.
An account of the haunting is included in Winfield's "The Paranormal Almanac of Western New York."
"On Moore Avenue is a fairly nondescript building once used as the pre-school of St. Anthony's Roman Catholic Church. It may be unused today, but during its stint as a senior center, the residents and at least one director reported the ghostly sounds, sights, and activities of children," Winfield wrote.
"I was familiar with the ghost stories at 32 Moore Ave.," said Jeanine Smith, director of the Fredonia-Pomfret Senior Center from 2007 to 2011.
Smith said that she was told of children's laughter and voices heard while the building was nearly vacant. Much to her disappointment, she never experienced it herself.
"I was alone in the school end of the building a lot of time during the period I was Director of the Fredonia-Pomfret Senior Center," she said. "When I was alone the ghost stories always came to mind!"
St. Anthony's Church itself is more than a century old. According to documents at the Barker Historical Museum, the St. Anthony Roman Catholic Church Society was incorporated in Dec. 2, 1905. Members donated their spare time to complete the excavation of the church cellar and donated the first organ. Less than 50 years later, on Sunday, Feb. 24, 1952, a fire severely damaged the church, with damage estimated over $100,000. During the rebuilding, services were held in St. Anthony's auditorium. According to the parish office and the Barker Museum, the school building dates back to 1958 or 59.
"Chautauqua County, a lot of its supernatural material appears related to religion - there's a lot of really cool religious material there," Winfield said in a phone interview.
Several Fredonia residents close to the parish shared their experiences, but preferred not to be named. One woman recalls hearing a classroom full of children while she was in the school building alone. Another, who had heard similar lore, had never encountered anything at the school herself but the parish office, located at 66 Cushing St., was another story.
The property has a lengthy history. According to the Historical County Structures Database, "A home and small farm at today's 66 Cushing were shown on the 1854 Wall Map of Chautauqua County, on the 1867 Atlas of Chautauqua County, and on the 1881 Atlas of Chautauqua County in the name of H. Marsh or H. N. Marsh. In later years, Moore Avenue was constructed along the northwesterly line of the Marsh farm." Henry Nelson Marsh was born in 1815. One of Henry and Martha Marsh's sons, Oscar, attended the Fredonia Academy. According to an 1865 census and an 1867 village map, Oscar and his family lived in a house next door to his parents on Cushing Street.
The house at 66 Cushing St. was once used as a convent for the nuns serving the parish and one witness claims that they have a habit of showing up unexpectedly. It happened whenever she was in the office alone - the sound of footsteps.
"We know something's going on there," she said. "One day, the guys were out mowing the lawn - I was the only one in the office. There were no screens in the windows for the wind to blow or anything. I heard a door slam in the office ... I looked around and didn't see anybody. I heard footsteps and there was nobody there."
A teacher who once led a baptism class in the parish office shared a haunting story with her as well.
"She said she had everybody at the table, doing the baptism class, and in the corner, there was another person."
But there was no other living person present.
THE SOLDIER WHO STAYED BEHIND
Alonzo Cushing of Fredonia died at age 22 in the last day of the Battle of Gettysburg on July 3, 1863. The brave solider, who fought to the bitter end despite his wounds, his battery left with two guns and no-long range ammunition, has been recommended for the prestigious Medal of Honor in a hard-fought campaign that continues 149 years after his death. Though Cushing's grave isn't located in the village, his spirit still might be here in his hometown.
The Alonzo Cushing monument on Main Street, located at the front of Pioneer Cemetery, stands only 20 yards away from the grave of Zattu Cushing, his renowned grandfather who became one of Fredonia's first residents in 1808 and fought in the War of 1812. Alonzo was born in Wisconsin but grew up in Fredonia, where he moved after the death of his father, Dr. Milton Cushing, in 1847. "Lon," as he was called by friends and family, attended a local nursery school and later the Fredonia Academy. He went to West Point in 1857 - his pranks occasionally earning him "demerits" - and graduated in 1861, immediately assigned duty in the 4th U.S. Artillery. While in Washington, D.C., General Winfield Scott and President Abraham Lincoln offered their congratulations to Alonzo.
Langworthy, who wrote the book, "The Cushing Boys of Fredonia - Soldiers of the Civil War," headed the effort to create a monument for Alonzo. A dedication ceremony was held in the cemetery recent years, was attended by members of Cushing's "battery," a reenactment group that Langworthy has involved with, for the monument designed and built by Fredonia High School students.
"A few of the people from Cushing's battery told me that they felt very, kind of, strange around the monument," Langworthy said. "They had a very funny feeling, like they were being watched the whole time."
Members have had more than one unsettling experience.
"Some of them have come back to town since then the members of the unit always go and visit the monument, some of them lay flowers and everything because their unit is named after Alonzo Cushing," Langworthy said. "They still say that every time they're around it, they get a very strange feeling."
One of the ladies who comes back to Fredonia often and leaves flowers at the monument each time has shared a similar testimony with Langworthy.
"She said that she gets a really cold, almost like a shiver, when she gets near the monument like there's something standing next to her," Langworthy said. "She's told me that she wonders if he has a presence there, and watches everything that happens She said, 'I don't know if he knows that I'm bringing flowers and is touching me or something to let me know that he's there and appreciates the flowers.' A couple of times she's been in tears when she's left she feels almost like a sadness associated with the monument. He was killed and he was so young. She thinks his presence may be there."

Human biology is an interdisciplinary academic area that studies humans through the influences and interconnections of many different fields, such as genetics, evolution, physiology, anatomy, epidemiology, anthropology, ecology, nutrition, population genetics, and social factors. It is strongly related to biomedical sciences, biological anthropology, and other biological studies that tie together many aspects of human functionality. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that biogerontologist Raymond Pearl, founder of the journal Human Biology, used the word “human biology” in a way that distinguished it from biology.
It’s also a portmanteau word for all biological characteristics of the human body, usually employing the human body as a type organism for Mammalia, and it’s the foundation for many undergraduate University degrees and modules in that context.
The majority of human biology is identical to or extremely similar to that of mammals in general. Humans, in particular, and as examples:
Keep their body temperature constant
Have an internal skeleton, circulatory system, and neurological system to supply sensory input, as well as control and coordinate muscular action
They have a reproductive system that allows them to produce milk and bear live pups.
Have an endocrine system in which hormones and other biochemical signalling signals are produced and eliminated
Have a respiratory system in which oxygen is used to make energy once air is breathed into the lungs.
Having a healthy immune system that protects you from sickness
Waste is excreted in the form of urine and faeces.
Typical human characteristics
Human biology’s most important features are the ways in which humans vary from other mammals.
Humans have a huge brain housed in a cranium that is disproportionately large for their size. This enormous brain has enabled a variety of unique characteristics, including as the creation of sophisticated languages and the ability to create and use a diverse set of tools.
Although the upright stance and bipedal locomotion are not unique to humans, they are the only creatures that rely on this style of locomotion almost completely. Significant changes in the structure of the skeleton, including the articulation of the pelvis and femur, as well as the articulation of the head, have resulted as a result of this.
Humans live for an extremely long time in comparison to most other mammals, with an average age at death in the industrialised world of approximately 80 years. Humans also have the longest childhood of any mammal, taking an average of 12 to 16 years to reach sexual maturity.
Humans do not have fur. Humans are practically naked in terms of insulation from cold, notwithstanding a residual coating of fine hair, which may be more developed in some men, and localised hair covering on the head, axillary, and pubic regions. The explanation for this shift is still up for dispute.
Although the human eye can sense colour, it is not well adapted to low light situations. Although the senses of smell and taste are present, they are inferior to those of a wide spectrum of other mammals. Human hearing is good, although not as good as that of other mammals. Similarly, the human sense of touch is substantially developed, particularly in the hands where dextrous tasks are performed, but it is still significantly less sensitive than in other species, particularly those equipped with sensory bristles such as cats.
Extensive scientific research
As a scientific subject, human biology seeks to comprehend and promote study on humans as living organisms. It use a variety of scientific approaches, such as experiments and observations, to detail the biochemical and biophysical underpinnings of human life, as well as to define and formulate the underlying processes through the use of models. As a fundamental science, it serves as the fou Medicine
The human brain’s capabilities and dexterity in making and using tools have enabled humans to understand their own biology through scientific experimentation, including dissection, autopsy, and prophylactic medicine, allowing humans to live longer through better understanding and reducing the impact of diseases.
Understanding human biology has permitted and facilitated a broader understanding of mammalian biology, and thus the biology of all living organisms.
Human nutrition is similar to animal omnivorous nutrition in that it requires a balanced intake of carbs, lipids, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. The human diet, on the other hand, has a few extremely unique requirements. ndation for medical knowledge. Anatomy, cytology, histology, and morphology are some of the sub-disciplines. These contain two specific amino acids, alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid, both of which are required for long-term survival. All other fatty acids can be produced from dietary fats. Similarly, human life necessitates the presence of a variety of vitamins in diet; if these are absent or supplied at unacceptable quantities, metabolic problems develop, which can lead to death. Except for the necessity to consume Vitamin C to prevent scurvy and other deficiency disorders, the human metabolism is comparable to that of most other mammals. A person can produce Vitamin D3 using natural UV light from the sun on the skin, which is unusual among mammals.
Although this capacity is prevalent in the mammalian world, only a few other species have almost exposed skin like humans. The darker a person’s skin, the less capable it is of producing Vitamin D3. so Medicine is the study and practise of health and healing. It consists of nurses, doctors, and other specialists. It covers disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, as well as medical research and a variety of other health topics. Medicine aims to improve and maintain one’s health and well-being.
Other living things
Human biology includes all creatures that dwell on or in the human body. These organisms vary from parasitic insects like fleas and ticks to parasitic helminths like liver flukes and bacterial and viral diseases. The specialised biome in the large intestine and the biotic flora of the epidermis, pharynx, and nasal region are home to many species linked with human biology. Many of these biotic communities protect humans from damage and aid in digestion, and they are now known to have complicated effects on mood and well-being.
Humans in all civilizations are social animals who communicate through language and tool manufacturing.
These communication abilities allow civilizations to develop and allow for the creation of art, literature, and music, as well as the advancement of technology. All of these are entirely dependent on human biological specialisations. The application of these abilities has allowed humans to dominate the terrestrial environment, to the disadvantage of most other species.

Piazza was drafted in the 62nd round of the 1988 draft. It is believed that the pick was partly a favor on the part of Dodgers' manager Tommy Lasorda, who is godfather to one of Piazza's brothers. Piazza's major league debut came with the Dodgers in 1992, when he appeared in 21 games. He then won the National League Rookie of the Year Award in 1993.
Piazza's best season probably came in 1997. He finished second in MVP voting. He hit .362, with 40 home runs and 124 rbi, an OBP of .431 and a slugging average of .638. This was one of the top hitting seasons for a catcher, of all-time.
He played for the Dodgers until a trade to the Florida Marlins in the middle of the 1998 season. Piazza and Todd Zeile went to the Marlins, in return for Gary Sheffield, Charles Johnson, Bobby Bonilla and Jim Eisenreich. The Marlins were cutting costs after their 1997 World Series Championship and after five games with the Marlins, they sent Piazza to the New York Mets.
With the Mets, Piazza continued his excellent play, leading the Mets to two consecutive playoff appearances, a six-game NLCS loss to the Atlanta Braves in 1999 and a five-game World Series loss to the crosstown New York Yankees in 2000.
Piazza has played in the all-star game for 10 straight seasons, from 1993 to 2002. He has finished in the top 10 of the MVP vote seven times, although he has never won the award.
Most baseball observers believe he will be elected to the Hall of Fame upon retirement.

My date enjoyed it a lot more than I did. There were a couple of odd comedians which I didn't think were very funny - host and the Jewish guy. Indian guy was ok. Everyone else did better. There was really only one nerdy reference which my love appreciated about mega man or something? I really only chuckled at the non-nerdy jokes. Most of the jokes, however weren't nerdy but I appreciated that. It appeared as though most of the audience enjoyed themselves. I liked the last guy and his racist jokes. Wow. Really? Lol. There were some uncomfortable reactions and that was pretty funny too. I really enjoyed the meatball sandwich which came with potato chips. Mmm. Service was good too.

Just in case you are unfamiliar with No Man's Sky, here's the basic premise:
"In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you'll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before - and perhaps never will again."
All pre-orders for the game will enable access to an extra ship, the Horizon Omega, which has a better hyperdrive and weapons than the standard ship. In addition to the standard game, iam8bit.com is selling a limited "Explorer's Edition" of No Man's Sky for $149.99 with only 10,000 copies available to purchase. In addition to either a Steam or GOG code for the game, it comes with a Traveller Pin, a diorama display backdrop and a big hand-painted replica of one of the ships in the game, along with decals for extra customization. There's also a ''mystery" extra in the box.

Office of Fair Trading (OFT) closed criminal cartel case.
Concluded prosecutions: R-v- George, Crawley, Burns and Burnett
|Defendant||Commencement of proceedings||Outcome||Sentence|
|Martin George||August 2008||Prosecution offered no evidence||N/A|
|Andrew Crawley||August 2008||Prosecution offered no evidence||N/A|

On 8 November the OFT announced that it had completed its review of the conduct of Virgin Atlantic Airways (‘VAA’) in connection with the OFT’s criminal investigation and proceedings in relation to airline passenger fuel surcharges. The purpose of the review was to decide whether VAA’s conduct in that matter fell short of its immunity obligations (as set out in its Immunity Agreement and the OFT’s published guidance) such as to warrant the revocation of its immunity in the OFT’s civil administrative proceedings in relation to airline passenger fuel surcharges.
In the specific circumstances of the present case, the OFT has decided that the conduct in question that potentially raised, or raised, concerns did not amount to non co-operation such as to warrant the revocation of VAA’s immunity. VAA co-operated with the OFT’s review. Whilst VAA does not agree with all of the factual findings which form the basis of the OFT’s conclusions, it welcomes the outcome of the review.
On 17 December 2010 the OFT published a report summarising the findings and recommendations of an OFT Board-led review into the events leading up to the collapse of the criminal trial in R v Burns and others, the response of the executive management of the OFT and the Board’s conclusion (pdf 140kb).
On 10 May 2010 the prosecution offered no evidence following which the judge directed the jury to acquit all four defendants.

In this study the effectiveness of an equine-assisted therapy (EAT) in improving adaptive and executive functioning in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was examined (children attending EAT, n = 15, control group n = 13; inclusion criteria: IQ > 70). Therapeutic sessions consisted in structured activities involving horses and included both work on the ground and riding. Results indicate an improvement in social functioning in the group attending EAT (compared to the control group) and a milder effect on motor abilities. Improved executive functioning was also observed (i.e. reduced planning time in a problem-solving task) at the end of the EAT program. Our findings provide further support for the use of animal-assisted intervention programs as complementary intervention strategies for children with ASD.

An explosion rocked a crowded Manhattan neighborhood and injured 29 people, and a suspicious device discovered blocks away was safely removed early on Sunday.
De Blasio tried to calm any fears among nervous New Yorkers, saying the explosion had no terrorist connection and wasn’t related to a pipe bomb explosion earlier Saturday in New Jersey that forced the cancellation of a charity run.
De Blasio said:
“Now, I want to be clear: Whatever the cause, whatever the intention here, New Yorkers will not be intimidated,” the mayor said. “We are not going to let anyone change who we are or how we go about our lives.”
