John Charles Frémont
As the British colonies on the eastern seaboard became more populated in the mid-1700s, colonists began to look beyond the Appalachian Mountains and contemplate westward expansion. Looking westward, they could only imagine the incredible riches the continent would offer to them. Not much information was known about the territory west of the Appalachians. A 1795 map did offer a fairly accurate picture of the western region of North America, but it mistakenly depicted several inland lakes as being considerably larger than the Great Salt Lake. The map's cartographers probably drew these lakes from vague reports they had received from Indians. In 1806 John Cary produced a map that accurately depicted the Pacific coastline, but he did not include inland details—which resulted in a map that left blank almost the entire region west of the Mississippi River.
Curious to know more specifically what the western region had to offer, President Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826) commissioned Meriwether Lewis (1774–1809) and William Clark (1770–1838) in 1803 to find a navigable water route from the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean. In addition, Lewis and Clark were asked to report as many inland...

William Clark and Meriwether Lewis
Excerpts from The Journals of Lewis and Clark
Edited by Bernard DeVoto
Published in 1953
By 1800 Europeans and Americans understood the basic geography of most of the world's continents, with the exception of the western two-thirds of North America, the interior of Africa, the Arctic, and Antarctica. France, England, Russia, Spain, and the United States were very interested in the region beyond the Mississippi River in North America for its commercial potential but had not yet explored it extensively. Even Native American communities knew only their immediate areas—the land that they hunted or cultivated regularly. They too lacked a continental perspective.
Thomas Jefferson, obsessed with cartography (mapmaking) and natural history, understood the necessity of exploring and mapping the vast region west of the Mississippi River. When Jefferson commissioned Lewis and Clark to explore the western region of the continent, he believed that the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia were the tallest peaks in North America; that the woolly mammoth and other prehistoric creatures might still roam the Dakotas; that the Great Plains featured volcanoes and a mountain of pure salt; that the Rio Grande, Missouri, and Columbia Rivers all rose from a single source; and

Excerpt from Adventures of Zenas Leonard Fur Trader
Edited by John C. Ewers
Published in 1959
More than anything else, the growing fur trade attracted white men across the Mississippi River into the interior of North America. Fur traders, also called mountain men, had traveled over the Appalachian Mountains, around the Great Lakes, over the Rocky Mountains, and into the southwestern deserts in search of beaver pelts long before white settlers started to carve farms out of the wilderness. In the early 1800s, with the fur supply between the Appalachians and the Mississippi River depleted and settlements filling up the wilderness land, European fur trappers looked to the land beyond the Mississippi River. The Spanish, French, and British dominated the fur trade in this region when the United States purchased the Louisiana Territory from France in 1803. After the Louisiana Purchase, Americans began to hope that expanding their involvement in the fur trade would be good for the American economy. Keeping the fur trade in mind as they searched for the Northwest Passage, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark reported on the abundance of beavers along the western rivers and their tributaries.
One of Lewis and Clark's traveling companions, John Colter (c. 1775–1813), became the first and one of the most famous...

Excerpt from The Life of Col. John Charles Frémont, and His Narrative of Explorations and Adventures in Kansas, Nebraska, Oregon and California
By Samuel M. Smucker
Published in 1856
In 1842 John C. Frémont (1813–1890), known as "The Pathfinder," led an expedition between the Missouri River and the Rocky Mountains. In 1843 he led another from Independence, Missouri, along the Kansas River, across the Rocky Mountains, and over the Laramie Plain through South Pass. Frémont's description of the Salt Lake Valley inspired Brigham Young and his Mormon followers to settle there a decade later. Frémont's party eventually reached the Columbia River north of what he called the Great Basin. From there Frémont followed the Sierra Nevada range south into California. The expedition endured a brutal winter season before finally arriving at Sutter's ranch, a site that in 1849 would be overwhelmed by prospective gold seekers.
Like most military explorers, Frémont was motivated by the potential for increasing American territory. However, his findings proved significant for subsequent geographical explorations. With the aid of Charles Preuss, a Prussian cartographer, Frémont produced the first accurate map of the overall trans-Mississippi west as well as a special emigrant map of the Oregon and...

Indian Wars
John S. Smith
Wooden Leg
For more than three hundred years, white men battled Native Americans for control of the North American continent. Beginning shortly after European settlers landed on the shores of the present-day United States in the early seventeenth century and continuing until the dawn of the twentieth century, white settlers and soldiers waged an unrelenting war to claim the lands that Native Americans, or Indians, had long considered their own. Though the underlying cause of the wars was the white settlers' craving for land, the tensions were heightened by the huge cultural differences that separated the two peoples. Whites and Native Americans had very different ideas about how to use land, the meaning and importance of promises, and how to wage war. These cultural differences added to the tragedy of the Indian Wars.
From the beginning, the white conquerors had tremendous advantages. They possessed superior weapons, larger numbers, and a strong sense of purpose—to claim the land from coast to coast. Soon after the United States declared its independence from England, Americans began to pour into the trans-Appalachian West, the area between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River. Though they met with...

Indian Removal Act of 1830
Legislation passed by the United States Congress in 1830
The War of 1812 marked the end of organized Indian resistance to white settlement of the area known as the Old Northwest (the area of land surrounding the Great Lakes and between the Ohio River and the Mississippi River; it included the present-day states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota). White pioneers poured into the trans-Appalachian West, settling in the area that now includes the states of Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and other Midwestern states. These settlers discovered, however, that many Indians hoped to remain on the lands that had been occupied by the Indians' ancestors. Though open warfare had ceased, whites and Indians continued to clash over who would occupy the fertile lands that the United States had claimed as the spoils of war. By 1830 many former territories had become states, and these states pushed for the removal of Indians from their land.
Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)—famed for his valor in the Battle of New Orleans in 1814 and renowned as a skilled Indian fighter—became president of the United States in 1829 and supervised a concerted effort to remove Indians from the lands east of the Mississippi River. In his first address to Congress as president, Jackson asked: "What good man would prefer a country covered...

Congressional Testimony of John S. Smith, Eyewitness to the Sand Creek Massacre
Given on March 14, 1865
Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War, Massacre of Cheyenne Indians, 38th Congress, 2nd Session, Washington, 1865
Soon after gold was discovered near Pikes Peak in Colorado in 1858, American legislators established the Colorado Territory. In order to encourage white settlement the government tried to negotiate a treaty that would place the Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes living throughout the territory on a small plot of land in southeastern Colorado. Many tribes either rejected or ignored the treaty and continued to roam the prairies and the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Territorial governor John Evans (1814–1897) encouraged white citizens "to kill and destroy, as enemies of the country, wherever they may be found, all . . . Indians," according to Don Nardo in The Indian Wars. Evans also appointed a notorious Indian-hater, John M. Chivington, to lead the militia and drive the Indians out of Colorado.
Although many Indian groups continued to resist white advances in the region, one Indian leader, Black Kettle, believed that his tribe would do better to cooperate with the white men. Thus Black Kettle's Cheyenne obeyed Evans's order to report to the military base at Fort Lyon. After...

Wooden Leg
Excerpt from Wooden Leg: A Warrior Who Fought Custer
Interpreted by Thomas B. Marquis
Published in 1931
For years after the Sand Creek Massacre, U.S. soldiers and Indian warriors met in dozens of battles and skirmishes across the Plains region, with neither side gaining a decisive advantage. Eastern newspapers mocked the American forces for their inability to capture the relatively small bands of Indians who were causing so much trouble. The final conflict between these two forces came in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Sacred ground to many of the Plains tribes, the Black Hills had been protected by many treaties over the years. However, General George Armstrong Custer (1839–1876) led an expedition into the Black Hills in 1874 to protect white settlers who believed that there might be gold in the region. When gold was found, tens of thousands of fortune seekers and settlers moved into this sacred territory. The Indians had no choice but to respond.
In the winter of 1875, thousands of Indians from a number of different groups began to gather on the banks of the Little Bighorn River in southern Montana. There they planned their strategy for the defense of the Black Hills, unaware of (or ignoring) the army's threat to hunt down and kill any Indians found off their reservations. For its part,...

Settling the West
- Josiah Gregg
- Henry N. Copp

- Elise Amalie
Between 1800 and 1870, nearly half a million Americans set out across the frontier on the many trails that led westward. Using the Santa Fe Trail, the Oregon-California Trail, the Mormon Trail, or one of the many other trails, these trappers, traders, farmers, and families set out on a journey of discovery. For many the western frontier represented the opportunity of a lifetime: a chance to take control of their lives, to strike it rich, to make their own rules, or to claim their own land. Lured by promises—of gold, of lucrative trade, or of fertile farmland—pioneers endured weeks and even months of arduous travel in order to reach their destination and build the communities that defined the American West. The trails they blazed helped pave the way for the civilizing of the West.
The pioneers who journeyed west in the middle of the nineteenth century left their mark on the landscape and on the American character. Physical traces of the trails remain to this day: deep wagon wheel ruts are still visible in deserted stretches of the mountainous West, and many forts that are still standing attract...

Excerpt from Commerce of the Prairies: A Selection
Edited by David Freeman Hawke
Originally published in 1844
One thing that pioneers had in common was courage. For years, cautious observers in the East had warned against selling one's belongings, packing a wagon, and heading west. Newspaper editor Horace Greeley called it "palpable suicide" and statesman Daniel Webster warned that the West was a "region of savages and wild beasts."
By the 1840s, however, several events made the West more appealing to settlers: a long economic downturn that lasted from 1837 to 1842 encouraged many to seek their fortune in the West; Congress hinted that it would give land to Oregon settlers; Britain ceded the present-day states of Oregon and Washington to the United States in 1846; and the California gold rush attracted many people. The Great Migration, the name given to the first major departure of emigrants westward, drew one thousand settlers onto the Oregon Trail in 1843, and more came every year after that. The small trail soon became a well-traveled road stretching to the promised land. Many Americans felt that it was their "manifest destiny"—their right and duty to expand throughout the North American continent and secure these western lands.
A well-stocked wagon was as important as strength,...

Excerpt from The American Settler's Guide: A Popular Exposition of the Public Land System of the United States of America
Published in 1892
The frontier was the wilderness beyond the borders of civilized towns, a mysterious region that offered people the opportunity to strike out on their own, to make their own successes. For European immigrants, the American frontier offered a dream never before imagined. In Europe, a serf could never think of leaving his allotted plot of land to rise from poverty; a shopkeeper's son could never hope to run his own store before his father's death. Yet in America, just outside of the newly formed towns, hardy souls could determine their own destiny in the unknown.
Securing Property
On the American frontier, as in few other places on earth, a man amounted to the sum of his skills and endurance. Without the established lines of ancestry and wealth that made up the social structure in Europe, the American frontier was open to anyone strong enough or courageous enough to master it and claim its riches. On the frontier, each person had the power to shape his or her own destiny. Never before had a society offered all its citizens the opportunity for success. In the American West, "all men were future 'gentlemen' and deserved...

Excerpt from Narrative of My Captivity Among the Sioux Indians
Originally published in 1872
Reprinted in In Their Own Words: Warriors and Pioneers
Edited by T. J. Stiles
Published in 1996
Although legend has it that wagon trains crossing the prairie were under constant attack from marauding bands of Indians, such attacks were relatively infrequent—except on a few trails such as the Bozeman Trail—and rarely led to death. Native Americans posed little real danger to the emigrants. Much of the contact between whites and Indians was peaceful, as Indians provided direction to emigrants passing through their lands, or as the emigrants traded their guns for Indian horses. Some of the native groups demanded that travelers pay a toll to cross their land. But there was also some open conflict between Native Americans and whites. Indians commonly slipped into camps at night and stole horses and other goods. In fact, the Pawnee gained a reputation for thievery. Other groups, such as the Crow and the Blackfeet, disliked the travelers crossing their tribal lands and raided the camps or caught and killed stragglers. In the end, though, few whites were killed by Indians on the Oregon-California Trail, the same trail on which Fanny Kelly traveled.

An excerpt from "A Lady Grows Old in Texas" from Land of Their Choice: The Immigrants Write Home
Edited by Theodore C. Blegen
Published in 1955
Although many ventured into the West for one reason or another, those who settled and began to "civilize" the frontier truly tamed the continent. Asserts Roger Barr in The American Frontier, "As in earlier American frontiers, it was farmers, the last in the line of frontiersmen, who truly conquered the West. Dissatisfied by the conditions at home, lured by the promise of free land, and aided by new technology, they came by the thousands to the Great Plains beginning in the 1850s." Farmers had to learn new methods of farming; technological advances, such as John Deere's 1837 invention of the steel plow, made their work easier. Another invention, barbed wire (1874), allowed farmers to fence off their land to keep the growing numbers of livestock from trampling their crops.
Farming in the West was encouraged by the Homestead Act of 1862, which gave settlers up to 160 acres of free land if they settled on it and made improvements over a five-year span. The Timber Culture Act of 1873 granted an additional 160 acres to farmers who agreed to plant a portion of their land with trees. These acts drew many thousands of settlers

The Cowboy Life
E. C. "Teddy Blue" Abbott
Agnes Morley Cleaveland
When most people think of the American West, they think of cowboys. Historian Walter P. Webb described this heroic image in The Great Plains:
There is something romantic about him. He lives on horseback as do the Bedouins [members of nomadic desert tribes in Africa]; he fights on horseback, as did the knights of chivalry; he goes armed with a strange new weapon which he uses ambidextrously and precisely; he swears like a trooper, drinks like a fish, wears clothes like an actor, and fights like a devil. He is gracious to ladies, reserved toward strangers, generous to his friends and brutal to his enemies. He is a cowboy, a typical Westerner.
This stereotype of the cowboy is the West's most recognizable contribution to our national mythology. But what was the cowboy's life really like? And what about the women who also lived in the cattle country of the West? This chapter presents the tales of two real cowboys and a cowgirl.

Nat Love
Excerpt from The Life and Adventures of Nat Love, Better Known in the Cattle Country as "Deadwood Dick"
Originally published in 1907
The cowboy is considered the hero of the American West. A tough, straight-talking man who spent long days on the range driving cattle to market, the cowboy maintained a sense of honor and decency and was often perceived as a protector of women. Like the knights of the Middle Ages, this American cowboy is a myth—only a reflection of what people would like to think about the past. Real cowboys were more complex. Many, like Nat Love, were rowdy, fun-loving men unlikely to be pointed out as role models to anyone. And as an African American, Nat Love does not fit the cowboy stereotype portrayed in old movies. Love's story indicates that the cowboy life may have been quite different than what we usually imagine.
Love's memoirs are filled with fantastic stories of his adventures. He tells of his winning the name "Deadwood Dick" in a shooting contest that pitted him against the most famous cowboys in the West, and of his capture and later escape from a band of Indians. "Horses were shot out from under me, men killed around me, but always I escaped with a trifling wound at the worst," recalled Love.

E. C. "Teddy Blue" Abbott
Excerpt from We Pointed Them North: Recollections of a Cowpuncher
Originally published in 1939
By E. C. "Teddy Blue" Abbott and Helena Huntington Smith
E.C. "Teddy Blue" Abbott was by all accounts a regular cowboy who had worked on the range in the 1870s and 1880s. Abbott was "discovered" by a journalist named Helena Huntington Smith, who had read an interview with Abbott in a Montana newspaper. She began to meet with him and soon became convinced that his stories needed to be documented. Working with the aging cowboy in 1937 and 1938, Smith wrote as quickly as Abbott talked, preserving the tone and excitement of his stories.
On December 17, 1860, Abbott was born in Norfolk, England. His family moved to the United States when he was a baby and settled near Lincoln, Nebraska, where his father became a farmer. Abbott's father, who he described as "overbearing and tyrannical," wanted Abbott to join him in working the farm, but the young man had other ideas. He was enthralled with the cowboys who passed through Lincoln and by the age of twelve had left school to look after his father's herd of cattle. Though he was not yet living the life of a cowboy, he knew that someday he would. The excerpt from Abbott's autobiography begins when he was fourteen and just about to start his career as a cowboy....

Agnes Morley Cleaveland
Excerpt from No Life for a Lady
Originally published in 1941
In the 1800s cattle drives were considered men's work. But that didn't mean that women didn't play an important role in the cattle boom of the late nineteenth century. In fact, some of the infamous female figures in the West were as romanticized as their male counterparts. Horse thief and cattle rustler Belle Starr was widely known as the female Jesse James, and Calamity Jane was as celebrated as Wild Bill Hickok for her exploits with a gun. In the rowdy cattle towns that popped up across Kansas, dance hall girls and prostitutes were very colorful figures. However, most women—like most cowboys—led more ordinary lives than the legends indicate. Ranchers' wives worked alongside their husbands to build the ranches that were the bases for cattle drives. On small farms and ranches in the Far West, women often had to do much of the same work as men, as well as cook and take care of the children.
Agnes Morley Cleaveland was not a cowboy, but she was as close as a woman came to being a real cowgirl. Born Agnes Morley in 1874 to a renowned railroad engineer who owned plots of land throughout the West, Miss Agnes, as she was known on the ranch, grew up in the high desert country of southwestern New Mexico, near the village of Magdalena. Her parents worried about bringing up...

The Gold Rush
Elisha Douglass Perkins
Conflicts between Indians and Whites
The discovery of gold in the Sacramento Valley of northern California, inland from the San Francisco Bay, in 1848 marked the beginning of one of the most dramatic periods in American history. The day James Marshall's eye was caught by a shiny object in the bottom of a ditch while he managed the construction of a sawmill for his boss John Sutter would be recounted again and again as news of the discovery spread around the world. Soon thousands of adventurers would migrate to California, searching for their own fortunes.
The California gold rush lasted just a few years, but it dramatically changed the future of the state and the nation. Of the thousands who migrated to California with hopes of instant riches, only a few struck it big in the gold fields. Many more built new lives providing services in the rapidly growing city of San Francisco. Others died on the arduous journey west or—if they were Native American, African American, Chinese, or Hispanic—faced discrimination as white settlers took control of the state. The gold rush changed California from a sparsely populated Mexican territory to a rapidly growing state within a decade.

Edward Kemble
Excerpt from Reminiscences of Early San Francisco 1847–48
First published in the Sacramento Daily Union in 1873
Reprinted in A World Transformed: Firsthand Accounts of California Before the Gold Rush, 1999
Edited by Joshua Paddison
It took several months for people in San Francisco—barely one hundred miles away from Sutter's Mill—to hear of Marshall's discovery of gold on January 24, 1848. As the first news of gold trickled through the small California towns, some were skeptical. In San Francisco, a town of about five hundred people, settlers were busy setting up shops to support the growing farming communities; farming was considered the best economic opportunity in the territory at the time. However, as workers from Sutter's Mill began buying goods with gold dust, the rumors of gold in the hills of California were hard to deny.
The curious editor of the California Star newspaper, Edward Cleveland Kemble, wanted to know if the rumors were true. He joined the first party to leave San Francisco for the gold mines. In 1873, Kemble published a rare perspective about the beginning of the gold rush in a series of articles for the Sacramento Daily Union. His reports highlight the skepticism of the party and the difficulty in...

Excerpt from Gold Rush Diary: Being the Journal of Elisha Douglass Perkins on the Overland Trail in the Spring and Summer of 1849
Written between May 1849 and February 1850
Published in 1967
Edited by Thomas D. Clark
In 1848 the discovery of gold in California created a wave of excitement across America. The news of gold in California spread through the United States like wildfire, and the migration to California increased. The New York Herald reported that "the great discovery of gold has thrown the American people in a state of the wildest excitement. Gold can be scooped up in pans at the rate of a pound of pure dust a scoop. 'Ho! For California' is the cry everywhere." Similar announcements appeared in newspapers across the country.
By the summer of 1848 other westerners—Hawaiians, Oregonians, Mexicans, and Latin Americans—caught wind of the discovery and set out for California. Late in 1848 the Oregon Spectator reported that "Almost the entire male population has gone gold digging in California." In July 1848, the number of gold seekers stood at two thousand; by October there were five thousand; and by year's end they numbered eight thousand. Yet there were more to come. Many of the first Californians to reach the gold mines—known as the...

Native Americans and the California Gold Rush
Excerpts from Exterminate Them: Written Accounts of the Murder, Rape, and Slavery of Native Americans
During the California Gold Rush, 1848–1868
Edited by Clifford E. Trafzer and Joel R. Hyer
Published in 1999
With its mild climate, its vast and fertile interior valleys, and an abundance of game, the region we now know as California once supported a large native population. Historians estimate that before contact with the Europeans some three hundred thousand native people lived in the territory known as California. These Indians organized themselves into more than one hundred different tribes. Each of these groups had distinct cultures and traditions, and all benefited from an environment that provided them with the best diet of any native population.
Blessed with ample land and food, California's indigenous peoples found little reason to come into conflict with one another. This peaceful life began to change in 1769, when Spanish missionaries arrived on the California coast and set out to convert the native population to Christianity. The Spanish sought to extend their empire northward into California. They began building missions (churchbased districts), pueblos (villages), and presidios (forts) in the southern territory around San Diego extending all the...

The Closing of the Frontier
The conquest of the American frontier is one of the most exciting and dramatic stories in American history. Settling western lands required nearly a century of warfare and hardship as Americans fought the British and many Indian groups to lay claim to the West. The United States was born out of the Revolutionary War, which was fought in part to guarantee the rights of colonists to settle west of the Appalachian Mountains. Yet winning the war and declaring independence from England didn't automatically open the West to the Americans. For four decades after they declared their independence in 1776, Americans battled the British and a variety of Native American groups to take possession of the lands stretching west to the Mississippi River.
The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 and the American victory in the War of 1812 opened the continent to western expansion. The Louisiana Purchase nearly doubled the size of the United States, adding a vast expanse of territory that reached from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains and from the Gulf of Mexico to the Canadian border.

Frederick Jackson Turner
"The Significance of the Frontier in American History"
Excerpted from The Frontier in American History
Originally published in 1920
In 1893 a then little-known historian named Frederick Jackson Turner (1861–1932) delivered an address at the World Columbian Exposition in Chicago that changed the way Americans thought about the American character and the conquest of the West. For years, scholars and historians who had tried to explain the development of America emphasized the European influences on American culture. According to these scholars and historians, the explorers, the settlers, their material culture (the physical things they owned), their institutions, their beliefs and values—all had been forged in Europe. Yet such explanations ignored a decisive factor in the shaping of the American character, argued Turner. That factor was the frontier.
According to Turner, what separated Americans from Europeans was the constant availability of new land to the west. In his speech, Turner maintained that the frontier—that region just beyond or at the edge of a settled area—washed away all European influences and created a distinctive American character. Although settlers in America brought their European culture and beliefs with them, they found themselves confronting a radically new...

15-1/4" Wide x 10" tall x 3/4" deep, reliable, all-aluminum tube-and-fin cooler extends the life and improves overall functioning of your GMC C/K Series Pickup's transmission.
Note: The Derale Insta-dapt radiator adapter fits most GMC C/K Series Pickups with 5/16" transmission lines, but not all. In some cases, additional fittings or alteration of the OEM lines or hoses may be required for installation.
Perhaps the simplest type of heat exchanger, the tube-fin effectively cools a variety of automotive systems. The concept is simple: Fluid cools as it travels through the core by transferring heat out to the fins. The fins then provide the surface area necessary for sufficient heat exchange to take place, allowing the heat pulled from the fluid to dissipate into the surrounding air. Quick, easy and effective.

They would tighten to x amount then just spin. I had to purchase extra hose clamps that actually tightened. Impressed overall.64593

During times a Wall Street CEOs are though telling our Charlie gas they -- that President Obama will win re election.
But some stock trading just hours before the actual vote begins saying something differently.
Charlie has the latest on the markets conflicting signals he got this info before the markets -- What happened -- -- had already nominated to the casino.
Atmosphere here and edited it's fun -- you know you do have to think about this if you -- portfolio you know we did -- Romney portfolio we did it.
Obama portfolio couple weeks ago and -- And you know what hits the fan portfolio -- Got a fiscal cliff -- -- -- -- that later on again rules because that could happen tomorrow but what we're going to hit the fan but it we have a fiscal things we do we have we have an Obama presidency.
We have Republicans in congress and we have -- and we have -- a stalemate on and on a budget deal.
But here's what the market saying -- now I I think we're in order for Mitt Romney to win like.
-- -- I think I'm not listen I I'm not Nostradamus but I will tell you if I look at polling trends polling trends clearly suggest the President Obama is gonna win reelection.
And likely would it fairly sick easily in the Electoral College that's what the polling trends and a less.
We are not seeing that -- -- OK but these -- caveat that's what I believe that said.
If you look at some trading in stocks today they -- clearly pointing to a Romney victory in some of these stocks include.
Whole stocks financials.
Defense contractors.
Previous pretty interest in moving up now that's interesting why coal stocks who -- look like that.
Is beyond -- we should point out that financials have moved up significantly.
Since the first debate -- financials in interest -- take Citigroup at a good news Sanders just over at Citigroup demos diluted stock in the world but there are up.
Is well -- Citigroup's a marginally today why they up.
Obviously because -- Romney presidency you would get rid of some of the real nasty stuff on Dodd-Frank -- -- industrials up well you know industrials are up today why that why is that.
Well it's because you have defense contractors and there.
So if you look at some of these things.
It's pretty interest in it looks like the are people making bets in the market traders -- that that Romney's -- went even though.
If you look at -- in trade you know that trading mechanism that people pick the president -- presence eats its heavily weighted Obama.
Even though when you don't get every Wall Street CEO they are -- they don't we essential to everybody -- -- a lot of them.
And people up there close -- they say everything they're hearing is you know electoral win.
How we should point out what in the interest in things and I did this is this is kind of -- my another caveat here.
David Axelrod has been reaching out to to some people that are associated with the with these Wall Street guys.
And he's been out there predicting a very easy win for Obama now of course he -- now yeah okay right you don't see you know -- when you have -- in the big you don't generally do that.
You know it's just I'm just wondering if this is a ploy you know what do -- know I'm just saying that when -- that overconfident.
Members what they said about the stimulus package but it would it do need that overconfident.
You know there's just the I I I take -- as a sign of weakness the other thing that you point out that goat goes contrary to what I just so you -- stocks and gold is up today.
That should mean that you point to an Obama victory is well because why.
Keep Ben Bernanke in -- keep the Fed interest rate policy keep printing money that's generally good for gold -- so that's we are right on the market you know.
Say what you -- about -- trades -- that you wanted to my little survey.
But it's gone down.
A little bit it's 31 bucks the ounce -- -- as a significant movement it's it's it's a move that's a good point on the bread and and but that's what that is that's what that is all about.
It's conflicting its conflicting signals.
Even despite would inch in trade says what with the -- -- tally so.
I don't historically have we ever CME when you talk about having to have a broader portfolio and Obama -- -- isn't that just more feel gunfire we're looking at a -- changed you know it's -- -- just what -- you our government's -- -- -- such a wide -- that is a great point because and here's -- Because I don't think we've had a president and President Obama that's radically changed the economy is is much is an I mean listen.
I have friends liberals of tell -- the markets up thirteen thousand you know -- do that.
I mean if you look at what he wants to do what he was prevented from doing from a Republican congress.
It's pretty radical what he did do he socialize.
A big chunk of the economy terms of obamacare.
He's if he wants cap and trade I don't think you'll ever get -- that some sort of rationing system.
For before for energy -- -- easy to get that but he would he wants to do is very radical and if he can get.
It's if -- if the Republicans lose seats in the senate.
It was a possibility they could gain -- -- -- -- sent to.
You know this guy couldn't couldn't do stuff.
And that would take -- -- that's arguably more important isn't it how congress -- -- it could be that's why a lot of problems want to be when Romney look what is going to want to go to right you know -- -- -- but I think it.
You know even have to have a a Bob Dole portfolio and a Bill Clinton portfolio.
Or even a George Bush portfolio Iran and it and Al Gore portfolio org -- -- -- just they were different.
-- what was liberals conserve what they were in that moderate range this guy.
Sign of the times Charlie -- so maybe tomorrow we have a definitive answer reached its definite portfolios policy yes that -- that's.
But you're here you so you're recommending stories.
I yeah we know let -- -- I don't know why and being my Sicilian skeptic I do not think we have to know.
-- wire act -- -- -- gonna get I could just going to be says I think it's gonna be eat it's going to be early.
The current and I might I -- -- get his I have a gun to my head.
Obama's veto -- if I don't have a gun to my head -- Back then that I you know I just I wouldn't bet but -- -- you tell me I have to bet.
He got a big big trend is going that way now maybe I'm missing the train I don't know we Romney's my friend is on the Romney campaign these kind of -- up there.
These tell me -- evangelicals are gonna come out that they -- vote indeed the -- -- -- be low for the dams and the skies -- very senior -- give -- all the reasons why you know if you support -- Mitt Romney you've you have reason to this year.
-- to be -- solutions and will announce my house.
We will hopefully know tonight as talents.

TWD: Coffee-Break Muffins
This week's Tuesdays with Dorie was selected by Rhiani of Chocoholic Anonymous: coffee-break muffins. Here's the thing...I don't drink coffee - ever. We don't even own a coffee pot at our house. Growing up I remember seeing my mom and my grandparents drink coffee all the time and I remember thinking that someday, when I was an adult, I too would drink coffee. It didn't happen when I went to college, and even though everyone told me I'd become a coffee drinker in law school, it didn't happen then either. At this point I think it's safe to say I'll never like coffee :)
That said, I do usually enjoy coffee-flavored treats (coffee ice cream is one of my favorites!) so I definitely wanted to try these muffins. Dorie uses coffee rather than milk to moisten the muffins and also includes espresso powder to impart even more coffee flavor. I always have espresso powder on hand but like I said, no coffee pot here, so my muffins didn't include the cup of coffee. I made half of the recipe and ended up with six muffins, which baked very quickly - about 12 minutes rather than the 20 the recipe suggests. For some reason I substituted water (rather than milk) for the coffee in my muffins and as a result, they were lacking in flavor a bit. Totally my fault and next time I'll probably use milk and also add chocolate chips to the recipe. The texture of the muffins was perfectly moist and tender, definitely a keeper.
Thanks to Rhiani for hosting this week! She'll have the recipe on her site today or you can find it on page 15 of Baking: From My Home to Yours.

The coffee-less muffins look yummy, even without wonderful, lovely coffee in them! I was only an occasional coffee drinker until I had kids. Now...one cup, every morning.
I bought some of the Starbucks Via instant packets for a houseguest, and it turns out they make pretty decent coffee for baking, if you want to use it in a recipe and not buy a coffeepot. - September 21, 2010 at 11:56 AM

no wonder they're so pale - no coffee! lol. I feel the same way about bananas. I don't like eating them except in baked goods. I made mine into coffee cake with chopped chocolate bars on top! Tia @ Buttercreambarbie

No coffee flavor. I guess you could substitute apple juice and it would be good. If you are a dried fruit fan, add some dried apricots or dried blueberries.
Hey, I could do that with the coffee flavor. A great idea, if you ask me. :) - September 21, 2010 at 1:18 PM

Gorgeous photos, Tracey! And I LOVE your muffin liners. Sorry these didn't pan out that well for you!

I liked these. They had a flavor that reminded me of fall baking. I think the flavor would have been enhanced with the additional coffee but still tasty without.
Thanks for sharing! - September 21, 2010 at 8:31 PM

I remember making my mom an entire pot of coffee for her Saturdays and loving the smell. But the taste... blegh! Not to mention she liked her's super strong! I can only stomach coffee if there's an ungodly amount of milk, sugar and flavoring in it (aka: Starbucks) but I do LOVE coffee flavored treats!
Your muffins look absolutely great! - September 22, 2010 at 12:42 PM

Well they look good. I went with hot cocoa AND added chocolate. They are a good muffin, but I don't do coffee anything. Sometimes I'd like to, because I like the smell, but that's about all.

I don't know if you drink tea, but that's what I used in mine, and it worked pretty well. Or maybe just use more espresso powder to up the flavor. In any case, they look great!

In a few thousand years we "might" have enough data to make a 5th grade educated guess.
The For-Sale forum might be a more appropriate place for such offers.
To its credit this ible does contain clear, well written, step-by-step instructions and pictures of how to make an attractive (general purpose) leave-your-unwanted-money-here type donation box.
Unfortunately, whilst the other two mainly make you look foolish, denial of climate change is actually dangerous to humanity.
As well as observed rises in sea level, and observed increases in the rate of ice-cap melting and the observed reduction in glaciers globally and the observed increases in droughts, storms, tornadoes, floods etc, there is the looming spectre of global famines and shortages of drinkable water.
Sound like scaremongering? Read these articles and tell me GW isn't happening, then read this (and the linked articles) and tell me not to be worried.
"So for the period for which we have direct, reliable records, the Earth has warmed dramatically even though there has been no corresponding rise in any kind of solar activity."
Sarge I do not believe you have read the articles I linked to above. Please do so. Fox News is a remarkably unreliable source of scientific facts.
As for the other planets, try checking their relative distances, compared to the fluctuating diameter of the Sun.
And Venus... global warming's ultimate potential end.
As for the rest of your post; pure selfishness.
You may find this section most relevant.
It's free, friendly to new members, and all the admins are "proper" (i.e. published) scientists.
You can tell them I sent you if you want, or you can approach them cold, it's up to you.
And a side comment, recycling anything other than metal creates more pollution than making new items. Please don't recycle plastic, just stop buying it in the first place. The three R's are REDUCE, REUSE and then if that doesn't get it all Recycle what you can of the rest, not Recycle, Recycle and recycle some more.
Have a good day all.
Apart from those who simply deny the data, the whole scientific community now realises that the current period of warming is not simply coincidental with humans being on the planet, but that the warming is almost entirely anthropomorphic - the correlation between human activity, atmospheric gases and temperature is amazingly close."What we do may have an effect, but there isn't anywhere enough data to know for sure either way."
Link to your "contradictory evidence". Show your scepticism has foundations.

TODD COUNTY, Ky. (4/4/13) – The Kentucky State Police (KSP) is investigating a single-vehicle, fatal collision that occurred on KY 181 South (Guthrie Rd), approximately 2 miles north of Guthrie, on Thursday, April 04, 2013, at 00:03 a.m.
The preliminary investigation revealed that Sheila D. Austin, Age 56 of Elkton, KY, was operating a 2004 Hyundai Accent, northbound on KY 181 when she lost control of the vehicle and exited the right shoulder of the roadway. While trying to regain control of the vehicle, Austin overcorrected and traveled into the southbound lane. She then overcorrected once again and traveled back off the right shoulder of the roadway. The vehicle overturned as a result and Ms. Austin, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle. She was pronounced dead at the scene by Todd County Coroner Bob Whittlesey.
Trooper Ben Cox is conducting the investigation. Guthrie Fire Department, Guthrie Police Department, Todd County Sheriff's Office, Todd County EMS, and the Todd County Coroner's Office assisted at the scene.

On an intuitive level, I believe that intimacy should be reserved for a husband and wife. But on a philosophical level, I have no good reason to explain why to friends (or my children!) who insist on a more liberal view of these issues. Can you help me articulate what I am feeling?
The Aish Rabbi Replies:
Judaism understands that the family unit is the key to the psychological health of children, and the stability of society as a whole. To ensure the preservation of that family unit, Jewish law places boundaries on human sexuality. Historically, those societies that did not adhere to such sexual boundaries eventually broke down and failed.
As Dennis Prager explains: "Man's nature, undisciplined by values, will allow sex to dominate his life and the life of society. When Judaism demanded that all sexual activity be channeled into marriage, it changed the world. It is not overstated to say that the Torah's prohibition of non-marital sex made the creation of Western civilization possible."
In contrast to other societies, where sexuality is a function of pleasure (secular) or procreation (Christianity), Judaism considers sexuality a mechanism to bond with one's spouse. This powerful tool aids a couple in their life goal of self-perfection. A human being can only achieve perfection through a marriage with the opposite sex, because only by the joining of opposites – male and female – can this bonding occur. This is one reason why Judaism opposes pre-marital sex, homosexuality, incest and bestiality.
A proper marital context directs one to grow and adapt to each other's differences and become one. Through that bonding, perfection can be achieved, and by extension – through bringing children into the world – the perfection of society is likewise attainable. It is the Jewish sexual revolution, and it has proved a pillar of civilization throughout history.

its around 40,000 on bass to GS this song
You have to have a near perfect run on this one. Use beatlemania after "he buys her diamond rings..you know she said so".. hit it when he says "so"
I think you have to have 3 people playing drums/guitar/bass, but I'm sure there are ways to get better, just possibly use Beatlemania at the right time. I got 100% bass and my friend got 100% guitar, still no gold stars, and we were both play expert.
im 13th on wii full band leaderboards with 605,000 which isn't gold stars but i got gold when i got 100% expert vox on first attempt.

I remember this song... it was very hard because the highscore to gold is too close. You must sing perfect, maybe with one little failure. I've sung this song and tried it... 20 times or so.
It's very helpfully to sing songs with harmony. Because if you can't sing a solo part you can sing the harmony. xD
You can get gold stars on vocals pretty easy, actually. It'll ping to gold at about two more phrases to go before the song ends. That is, if you've managed to keep your multiplier up till that point.
It's really not that hard to sing.. Go into practice mode and turn on the guide pitch and listen to that a couple of times and then try it yourself.

This has got to be the hardest freaking song to gold star in (on guitar and bass). It's absurd. They need to patch this, especially since it is tied to an achievement.
One: No, it isn't. I still haven't managed to get the GS on Helter Skelter, no matter which instrument I play, but I have the achievement for I Feel Fine.
Two: No, they don't. It's part of the engine, so adjusting it would make some other songs ridiculously easy to GS. You can only three-star Her Majesty on bass and drums, and by the same token, you can't GS I Feel Fine on bass, and it's very difficult to do so even with bass in an all-Expert band.

At the edge of the heliosphere, you wouldn't know by looking whether you left the cradle of humanity behind and floated out into interstellar space. You would just see unfathomably empty space, no matter which side of the invisible line you were on.
But scientists now have strong evidence that NASA's Voyager 1 probe has crossed this important border, making history as the first human-made object to leave the heliosphere, the magnetic boundary separating the solar system's sun, planets and solar wind from the rest of the galaxy.
"In leaving the heliosphere and setting sail on the cosmic seas between the stars, Voyager has joined other historic journeys of exploration: The first circumnavigation of the Earth, the first steps on the Moon," said Ed Stone, chief scientist on the Voyager mission. "That's the kind of event this is, as we leave behind our solar bubble."
A new study in the journal Science suggests that the probe entered the interstellar medium around August 25, 2012. You may have heard other reports that Voyager 1 has made the historic crossing before, but Thursday was the first time NASA announced it.
The twin spacecraft Voyager 1 and 2 were launched in 1977, 16 days apart. As of Thursday, according to NASA's real-time odometer, Voyager 1 is 18.8 billion kilometers (11.7 billion miles) from Earth. Its sibling, Voyager 2, is 15.3 billion (9.5 billion) kilometers from our planet.
Voyager 1 is being hailed as the first probe to leave the solar system. But under a stricter definition of "solar system," which includes the distant comets that orbit the sun, we'd have to wait another 30,000 years for it to get that far, Stone said.
Another milestone for long after we're gone: The probe will fly near a star in about 40,000 years, Stone said.
How do we know?
Voyager, currently traveling at more than 38,000 miles per hour, never sent a postcard saying "Greetings from interstellar space!" So whether it has made the historic crossing or not is a matter of controversy.
"The spacecraft itself really doesn't know," Stone said. "It's only instruments that can tell us whether we're inside or outside."
Further complicating matters, the device aboard Voyager 1 that measures plasma -- a state of matter with charged particles -- broke in 1980.
To get around that, scientists detected waves in the plasma around the spacecraft and used that information to calculate density. Vibrations in the plasma came from a large coronal mass ejection from the sun in 2012, resulting in what Stone called a "solar wind tsunami." These vibrations reached the area around Voyager this spring.
Measurements taken between April 9 and May 22 of this year show that Voyager 1 was, at that time, located in an area with an electron density of about 0.08 per cubic centimeter.
In the interstellar medium, the density of electrons is thought to be between 0.05 and 0.22 per cubic centimeter. The particles of interstellar plasma were created by the explosions of giant stars, and carry the magnetic field of the galaxy, scientists said.
Last year, between October 23 and November 27, researchers calculate that Voyager 1 was in an area with an electron density of 0.06 per cubic centimeter. That's still within the interstellar space range, and it means that over time the spacecraft passed through plasma with increasing electron density.
The study suggests that the plasma density is about 30 times higher in the interstellar medium than in the heliosphere, which is close to what scientists thought based on other kinds of measurements. The boundary is called the heliopause.
When did it happen?
Scientists have been using several kinds of measurements to figure out if and when Voyager 1 had reached the interstellar medium.
Evidence from particle data had already pointed toward the conclusion that the probe succeeded. In late July and early August of 2012, scientists saw dips in the concentration of particles made in the solar system, and peaks in particles made outside.
"If you just looked at that data, you'd think it's pretty clear that we've actually crossed a boundary. We're no longer in the place where the solar system particles are being made, and we're actually out in the interstellar medium," said Marc Swisdak, associate research scientist in the Institute for Research in Electronics and Applied Physics at the University of Maryland. Swisdak was not involved in the new study, but has worked with Voyager data.
Magnetic field measurements suggested otherwise. Researchers had expected to see stark changes in magnetic field direction when the probe crossed out of the heliosphere, but that wasn't supported by measurements from the probe.
Swisdak and colleagues published a modeling study suggesting that the particle data is more relevant, and that the magnetic field might not change as much as people thought. They proposed a crossing-over date of July 27 -- about a month sooner than the new study.
The specific date will likely be debated for some time, Swisdak said. One possible explanation is that if the heliosphere is analogous to an air-conditioned room, Voyager stepped through the doorway into a hot room on July 27. For a month it was in a metaphorical room with a mixture of hot and cold air, and finally entered the truly hot part on August 25.
Puzzles still surround the magnetic field at the edge of the heliosphere, Stone said, and "We're going to be prepared to have more surprises."
What else is out there?

Relying more on canned foods, which come pre-cleaned, chopped, cooked and easily portioned, can help you quickly assemble delicious and nutritious meals like the pros. Think of them as your personal prep kitchen.
Many professional chefs, accomplished home cooks and registered dietitians regularly incorporate canned ingredients into their recipes, so you can feel confident doing so as well. Consider these five key facts about canned foods.
1. Canned food is filled with important nutrients, including fiber, protein and vitamins and minerals essential for a healthy diet.
2. Research shows canned foods offer comparable nutrients often at a lower cost than their fresh or frozen counterparts, particularly when waste and prep time are considered. Additional research demonstrates that recipes prepared with canned ingredients rated the same or better in terms of taste and nutrition compared to those using fresh or frozen ingredients.
3. Canned food contributes less than 1 percent of the sodium in consumers' diets, and there are more no-salt added, low- and reduced-sodium options on grocery shelves than ever before. A quick drain and rinse can further reduce sodium content by 41 percent.
4. Canned foods are considered minimally processed foods. After being cleaned, peeled, chopped and trimmed, as necessary, foods are cooked in the can to lock in nutrients and flavor.
5. Steel cans are strong, tamper-resistant and feature an airtight seal to help guard against foodborne illness and contamination. In addition, steel cans are the most recycled food package.

Who We Are
Founded by Emmy-winning producer Kevin Wall, in partnership with former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, Live Earth was built upon the belief that entertainment has the power to transcend social and cultural barriers to move the world community to action. A for-profit company, Live Earth seeks to leverage the power of entertainment through integrated events, media, and the live experience to ignite a global movement aimed at solving the most critical environmental issues of our time.
- In partnership with corporations, non-governmental Organizations (NGOs), and entertainment and political influencers, Live Earth creates innovative, engaging events and media that challenge global leaders, local communities and every individual to actively participate in solving our planet's urgent environmental crises.
- And it all started with a concert heard – and seen – 'round the world! On 07.07.07, Live Earth created unprecedented global awareness for the climate crisis, when it produced "Live Earth: the Concerts for a Climate in Crisis" -- the "Most Watched Online Entertainment Event Ever." The concerts were hosted on seven continents, broadcast in 132 countries, and inspired 2 billion people worldwide to engage with the issues and the solutions surrounding the global climate crisis.
- Live Earth has continued engaging and growing its worldwide community through the Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook, the Live Earth Film Series, and ongoing online, print, email and mobile campaigns, while also developing key global initiatives for 2008, 2009, and beyond.
Honorable Al Gore
Former Vice President Al Gore is the author of the bestsellers Earth in the Balance and An Inconvenient Truth and is the subject of an Oscar-winning documentary. Al Gore is the co-winner, with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize for "informing the world of the dangers posed by climate change." He chairs the Alliance for Climate Protection, a non-profit organization designed to help solve the climate crisis.
He is chairman of Current TV, an Emmy award winning, independently owned cable and satellite television nonfiction network for young people based on viewer-created content and citizen journalism. He also serves as chairman of Generation Investment Management, a firm that is focused on a new approach to sustainable investing. Al Gore is a member of the board of directors of Apple, a senior adviser to Google, and a partner with the venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. He is a Visiting Professor at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
Kevin Wall
Kevin Wall founded Live Earth to trigger a mass-scale movement to combat our climate crisis. Wall is an Emmy Award-winning producer whose career has ranged from helping produce more than 300 concerts for artists like Bob Dylan to serving as Worldwide Executive Producer of Live 8, which brought together one of the largest audiences in history to combat poverty.
He is the CEO of Control Room, which produces and distributes live music concerts on the Internet, radio, television, mobile phones, at retail stores and in theaters. Wall was Vice-Chairman of a global Internet consulting firm, where he led the strategic acquisition and organization of 42 companies to build a venture with 3,000 employees and 38 offices. He is a co-founder of a venture capital fund currently invested in the semiconductor, software and convergence sectors.
The We Campaign, created by the Alliance for Climate Protection
The Alliance for Climate Protection developed the "We" Campaign, a commercial-scale effort using paid advertising, grassroots partnerships and online mobilization to build strong support for solutions to the climate crisis. The scale of the campaign is unprecedented – it is on track to be the largest public policy advocacy campaign ever, and expects to reach ten million members within three years. Its partners involve key leaders from business, labor, the environmental and social justice movements, faith groups and many others. The Alliance was founded by former Vice President and Nobel Prize winner Al Gore, who currently serves as the chairman of the bipartisan board of directors.

Share today's tee!
A word from TeeFury:This is a test for true fans- can you name each of the silhouettes?Tell us a bit about this design.I don't know it popped into my head one day. It was around Halloween so maybe seeing people in costumes crossing the street tapped into my subconscious somehow. I was tempted to add more detail but I think it's still recognizable
Where are you from?NYC but more specifically the Bronx.
What do you want TeeFury fans to know about you?That hopefully I can provide em' with more cool shirts to rock in the future. And currently putting the finishing touches on my time-machine so I can go back and get all the tee-fury shirts I missed out on.
What do you absolutely not want them to find out?That I believe NUTELLA should be in the food pyramid or basic food groups at least.
Name a few of your favorite things.Guess i'll have to keep it PG here, but got to include Bicycles, s'mores pop tarts, coffee, Sharpie markers, there's a lot of other things but I haven't fully woken up yet to think of them all.
What kind of art did you make as a kid?Silly stuff. People that looked like big potatoes with arms and legs. I would draw Ninja turtles in school all day in my notebooks. I still have a bunch of childhood drawings and sometimes wonder what was in the food back then, I drew some nutty stuff. Also had a big influence from all the comic books I read back in the day.
What was your favorite moment in the Star Wars series?There's lots of cool moments in the ORIGINALS (cough cough). But when I was a kid the speeder-bike chase scene was really cool too me. And even though most people hated the ewoks, I dug em when I was in my single digit years.
Light vs. dark: which would win the battle?Depends which of them has Internet access
Describe your favorite shirt that you own, and why you like it so much.Have a few too many, but my Sublime (awesome band!) shirt is high up there. And you can't go wrong with a plain white t-shirt, it works all year long and for any occasion as an undershirt or just a shirt shirt. I'm kind of picky when it comes to shirt designs. And can't jump on bandwagon type shirts you see everyone else wearing out there. So its either a hot or miss with me for shirt shopping.
Which is better, gaming, reading, or watching movies? Name your favorite title in your chosen medium.I know nowadays they probably have a watch that lets you do all 3 and than some. As far as books its got to be a subject that interests me. I'd rather read magazines (and their ads) but every now & then I will read some books. I recommend- Too Fat To Fish it's funny as hell. Movies are great too and theres tons out there that I like so I won't even start naming them.
What inspires your work?Anything can give me an idea, usually something I see or overhear or I will usually put some twist to an ad or commercial I see on tv or print. You can say my ideas are pretty random and depending on what's on my mind at the time things just materialize. Sometimes my ideas come out clear and sometimes they look better in my head and 90% of it will come out in the actual work. It's frustrating but fun
Any shout outs?To all my friends and family, all the other and much much better artists than me that keep inspiring me (keep it up). THANKS!!
Got to ask Smokey & Louse what are they wearing? And a shout out to my Mom. A big thanks to you guys & girls at Tee-Fury for giving me a chance its awesome...

Celebrate New Year's with Champagne
New Year's Eve simply wouldn't be the same without the sound of Champagne corks popping and bubbly flowing freely as the clock strikes midnight. After all, Champagne is and always has been the wine of celebration, and now is the perfect time to send loved ones and colleagues Champagne gifts to celebrate the arrival of 2010.
We offer several Champagne options, starting off with the simple yet classic Champagne Gift Crate and ranging to our luxurious Cristal Champagne Gift Basket, which is packed full of gourmet delights and wines for everyone in the crowd. Of all of our gifts, our customers tell us that Champagne gifts are often the most fun to give and receive. Who wouldn't love to receive a bottle of Dom Perignon from a prized year? GiftTree's memorable and impressive Champagne gifts always bring a smile to the recipient's face.
A great feature of sending a New Years gift is that it extends the happiness of the holidays and the joy of the gift giving season. The gift of Champagne is also a wonderful way to be present in spirit at New Year's celebrations when you can't be there in person. At the stroke of midnight when we are filled with optimism and hope, it's lovely to ponder that your Champagne gift will be in the glasses of friends and loved ones across the miles. Happy New Year!
