This screen capture has been uploaded as an example of how I enter information from death certificates into RootsMagic. In this particular instance, I'm showing how I enter Elva's father into the database. As the death certificate pertains to Elva, her name is listed in the "Master Source" section and the name of her father, Conrad Steigerwalt, is listed under "Source Details".
The template used is one that I created. It may be found at:
Ducktail spoiler, slotted taillight covers, honeycomb decklid trim, custom decklid badge, Shelby GT500 rear bumper, Shelby GT500 rocker panels, Ford GT wheels, Goodyear Eagle F1 tires, Pony fender bages, style bar
On the left,in the distance,gases being burned off at the Morecambe Bay Gas Terminal,on the right,the chimney at Roosecote Power Station,and in the background,the sun itself.
J'avais vu un article dans Ouest-France ( je ne sais pas ce que j'en ai fait ), dimanche 6 juillet devait être inauguré un site restauré avec lavoir et fontaine sur Edern . Hélas et bien entendu je devais être de garde ce jour . J'y suis donc allé un AM dan la semaine . Et j'y ai rencontré des membres de l'association qui avaient fait ce travail .
Certains l'avaient connu dans leur enfance . Il n'en restait rien de visible . Je crois qu'ils m'ont parlé de 50 cm de boue retirée .

Fermilab's Tevatron Shutdown Event was held September 30th, 2011 at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
"Antiproton Source: To produce antiprotons, physicists steer proton beams onto a nickel target. The collisions produce a wide range of secondary particles, including many antiprotons. The aniprotons enter a beamline where beam operators capture and focus them before injecting them into a storage ring, where they are accumulated and cooled. Cooling the antiproton beam reduces its size and makes it very bright. After accumulating a sufficient number of antiprotons, beam operators send them to the Recycler for additional cooling and accumulation before they inject them into the Tevatron. "

O Lord, you are the Almighty, the Omniscient, the Omnipresent one. You are imperceptible, exists beyond the peripheries of mind; but present in earth, in cosmos, in all the galaxies. You are all pervasive. Your luminosity sustains the life of all the living beings on this earth. You are the source of light. O my Lord, bless us, so that our intellect may get illuminated.

Monument Valley (Navajo: Tsé Biiʼ Ndzisgaii, pronounced [tsʰépìːʔ ǹtsɪ̀skɑ̀ìː], meaning "valley of the rocks") is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of sandstone buttes, with the largest reaching 1,000 ft (300 m) above the valley floor. The most famous butte formations are located in northeastern Arizona along the Utah–Arizona state line. The valley is considered sacred by the Navajo Nation, the Native American people within whose reservation it lies.
Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Famed director John Ford used the location for a number of his Westerns. Film critic Keith Phipps wrote that "its five square miles [13 km2] have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West".

History
Before human existence, the Park was once a lowland basin. For hundreds of millions of years, materials that eroded from the early Rock Mountains deposited layer upon layer of sediment which cemented a slow and gentle uplift, generated by ceaseless pressure from below the surface, elevating these horizontal strata quite uniformly one to three miles above sea level. What was once a basin became a plateau.
Natural forces of wind and water that eroded the land spent the last 50 million years cutting into and peeling away at the surface of the plateau. The simple wearing down of altering layers of soft and hard rock slowly revealed the natural wonders of Monument Valley today.
From the visitor center, you see the world-famous panorama of the Mitten Buttes and Merrick Butte. You can also purchase guided tours from Navajo tour operators, who take you down into the valley in Jeeps for a narrated cruise through these mythical formations. Places such as Ear of the Wind and other landmarks can only be accessed via guided tours. During the summer months, the visitor center also features Haskenneini Restaurant, which specializes in both native Navajo and American cuisines, and a film/snack/souvenir shop. There are year-round restroom facilities. One mile before the center, numerous Navajo vendors sell arts, crafts, native food, and souvenirs at roadside stands.

I was one of two students from the CWU Des Moines campus accepted to present research work done during my time at CWU at the SOURCE conference (though, as branch campus students, we didn't go all the way out to Ellensburg for the full conference). Here's a few shots Prairie took of Annie and I presenting our research projects.

PEN Presents: “Secret Sources" brought together NSA whistleblower Thomas Drake, Jesselyn Radack of ExposeFacts' Whistleblower & Source Protection Program, New York Times reporter James Risen, and moderator Susan Glasser of Politico to debate the impact of the Obama administration’s aggressive pursuit of national security leaks on freedom of expression. The issue has gained unprecedented national attention following the 2013 revelations by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, who joined the event via Skype following the panel in a conversation with PEN Executive Director Suzanne Nossel on whistleblowing and questions of conscience.
This forum builds off of a new PEN report, Secret Sources: Whistleblowers, National Security, and Free Expression. PEN’s research demonstrates that gaps in existing protections for whistleblowers, failure to adequately address retaliation against them, and the Obama Administration’s use of the Espionage Act against leakers is damaging freedom of expression, press freedom, and access to information in the United States.

Hong Kong Transport - Taxis
The Hong Kong Taxi Culture
There are 18,163 Taxis (Red, Green & Blue) registered in Hong Kong (Source - The Transport Department, Hong Kong Government) and the industry is very heavily regulated.
☛ 15,250 Red Taxis or Urban Taxis
☛ 2,838 Green Taxis or New Territories Taxis
☛ 75 Blue Taxis or Lantau Taxis
Payment for a ride is still mainly in CASH in HK$, cashless payment ie credit cards, debit cards and Octopus cards, phone apps and such are finally being accepted for Taxi payment.
Approximately 72% of Taxis are licenced for 4 passengers and 28% are licenced for 5 passengers and within a few years 5 passenger Taxis will be probably be phased out, Hong Kong people love Uber as many of the cars are what we call the 7 seaters, big and quite luxurious Toyota‛s and Nissan‛s that comfortably hold 6 passengers ideal for groups and families | for the record Uber currently operates illegally in Hong Kong since 2014 and have tacit approval from the Government.
A major review and overhaul of the Taxi Industry is currently in progress which may see Uber becoming legal as well as other ride hailing services.
The current cost of a Red (Urban) Taxi Licence fluctuates between HK$3,500,000 | US$449,000 and HK$4,500,000 | US$577,000 with an average of roughly HK$4,100,000 | US$526,000 over a 12 month period. This figure can fluctuate as people speculate on these! At one stage not too long ago the price hit HK$7,020,000 or US$900,000 and then Uber arrived in Hong Kong. Do the math US$615,000 x 18,163 licences - you can understand why the owners of Taxis do not want any competition from the likes of Uber and other ride hailing companies.
Current Taxis are mainly Toyota, Nissan or Ford, mainly LPG or Hybrids, full EV vehicles are now being introduced again and are gaining in popularity.
