In the US, about four million babies are born each year. Compared to women of generations past, women today are waiting longer to have babies, receiving more prenatal care, and having more cesarean deliveries .
Increased Age
In 1970, women, on average, had their first baby when they were 21.4 years old. This average age has increased to 25.4 years old.
While most births still occur in women in their 20s, women have been waiting longer to start their families. From 1970 to 2006, the number of women having their first baby at age 35 or older has increased nearly eight times.
Not only are women putting off having their first baby, but births to teenage girls are also at lower levels. Approximately 37% more teenage girls had babies in the 1970s than in 2000.
How old you will be when you have your first child may be related to where you live. The age at which women have their firstborn varies by state. For example, the average woman's age at first childbirth ranged from a high of 27.7 years in Massachusetts to a low of 22.6 years in Mississippi.
Prenatal Care
Compared with their predecessors, women today are more likely to receive prenatal care, which is associated with healthier babies and fewer pregnancy-related complications. In 2008, about 71% of women received prenatal care in their first trimester.
Total Fertility Rate Down, More Boys Than Girls
In 2011, the number of children a woman will give birth to over her lifetime was 1.9 children. The rate declined for nearly all race and Hispanic origin groups.
In 2010, for every 1,000 girls that are born, 1048 boys were born.
Cesarean Deliveries
The number of women having cesarean sections (C-sections) increased between 1996 and 2009. However, the rate has been declining ever since. Cesarean sections now account for about 33% of deliveries.
Preterm Deliveries
Data from 2011 found that the number of babies born preterm (before 37 weeks of gestation) has decreased to 11.72% of all births. There was also a small decrease in the percentage of low birth weight babies (accounting for 8.1%).

PLAYERS: Bill Belichick, John Harbaugh
TEAMS: New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens
TEAMS: New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens
What factors lead to success as an NFL head coach? Is it something quantifiable such as success as a coordinator or previous experience coaching, or is it the intangible factors that only present themselves when the situation arises?Bill Belichick was mediocre as the head coach in Cleveland from 1991-1995 going 36-44 and only finishing over .500 once. He now has three super bowl rings as the coach of the New England Patriots. John Harbaugh had no previous head coaching experience prior to accepting the post in Baltimore, and he has won a playoff game in each of his five seasons there, including last year's Super Bowl.The right answer lies somewhere in the middle. Differing factors lead to success as an NFL coach. Of the 14 coaches with winning percentages above .550 in the last 10 years, 10 were successful as an NFL coordinator (successful being defined here as top-10 at their position in the three years prior to getting a head coaching job), 11 had worked for successful head coache...

Choosing a Specialization
21/09/2011 § 10 Comments
Usually within the first few weeks of library school, you are asked what type of library you want to work in. If you're like me, you might have had some vague idea of what you wanted to do before you started school. I had wanted to be an art librarian, and my first semester I geared many of my projects around art librarianship. Half way through my first semester, I switched gears and became more interested in digital libraries. You never know what will happen! However, not everyone has a clear idea of what area they want to specialize in and in reality, what you think you want to go into changes as you continue with your education. Many library schools offer specializations which can cater to your interests.
- Be flexible – what your areas of interest are will probably change. Take classes in the subjects that sound interesting to you. It's a good way to judge whether you'd really want to specialize in that or not. You might stumble upon a totally different path.
- Interview other librarians – talk to someone who does what you want to do. My first semester, I talked to an art librarian and she gave me insight into her job duties as well as the types of reference questions she got. It helped me to see the difference in work settings. Most librarians are nice, helpful people and are usually willing to talk to students.
- Test the waters – Try and get some experience in your area of interest. Think you want to be a children's librarian but you've never worked with kids before? You should probably at least volunteer a couple hours to see if that's what you really want to do. Perhaps you can do an internship. The more you put yourself out there, the more opportunities will pop up that will interest you.
- Check out professional organizations – There are tons of specialized organizations out there for different kinds of libraries. You can join them, sign up for emails, go to conferences, etc. They're a good resource for finding out more information.
The best advice I have for those who are starting their library school journey is to just get your feet wet first. Get comfortable learning the librarian jargon and acronyms. Put your feelers out and see what might interest you. Nothing is final, you can always change your mind, but do remember that eventually you'll want to focus your energy.
Feel free to add in more tips or questions. Figuring out what you want to do is truly a journey.
§ 10 Responses to Choosing a Specialization
My current challenge is that I'm in a specialization track for youth services and I love it – but I'm increasingly interested and drawn to digital content management and digital/distance libraries. I'm too far along in my program to change, or even add a certification on. What sort of post-grad school options do I have for developing my digital interest in a way that'll be taken seriously by employers?
Great tips. Doing research, taking some new interesting-sounding courses, getting experience, and talking to librarians working in areas of interest are great ways to get a sense of what a specialized position will actually be like. I think that one of the challenges new students face (by some, I mean me–but maybe others can empathize) is getting overwhelmed by the scope of the LIS field and wanting to do everything. Sometimes all it takes is reading one article and all of a sudden I think that being a conservator or a technical services librarian or a science librarian is the REAL thing I should be doing. My only advice is to follow your own interests (and hopefully narrow them down) and not the whims of the marketplace. There are a few specializations I know I'm not interested in like writing code or working with children–even though school media librarians and information technologists are in high demand. I also know that I have prior experience and education that my LIS degree can compliment. I think that by building upon subject areas that I'm interested in expanding is a good bet for landing in a field and position that works for me.
Great tips. Many specialized programs at library schools (such as school library or archives tracks) are very specific about the courses you take, and allow for a very limited number of electives, thus limiting ones ability to explore. So I would say that if any of your core classes relate to something you MAY be interested in, take them early, even if you think you have a passion for the direction you're going in!
It's a good idea to take advantage of opportunities outside of classes to help broaden your horizons or see what directions you might want to go. Go to conferences/workshops for different groups and hearing speakers talk at events at your school. At my school, the student chapters of professional groups such as SLA and ALA organize library tours that can provide ideas for new directions or help confirm that the direction you're going is the right one.
[...] program. I'm assuming that's most people. Recent post topics include the necessary "choosing a specialization" and "the elevator speech". I'm hoping that once I get all my gears a-spinning [...]

Cornel West offers the New York Times a non-explanation for his complaint that Obama "feels most comfortable with upper-middle-class white and Jewish men who consider themselves very smart."
It's in no way an attempt to devalue white or Jewish brothers. It's an objective fact. In his administration, he's got a significant number of very smart white brothers and very smart Jewish brothers. You think that's unimportant?
I don't have any particular insight on the attacks on government buildings in Norway this morning, but just last week, Thomas Hegghammer and Dominic Tierney wrote a piece in the aftermath of a recently foiled terrorist plot that offered some speculation on how and why Norway became a target of Islamic extremists.
UPDATE: The suspect in custody is "Anders Behring Breivik, a 32-year old with right-wing extremist and anti-Muslim views."
Bruce Bartlett* looks at Barack Obama and sees Richard Nixon:
Thus Obama took office under roughly the same political and economic circumstances that Nixon did in 1968 except in a mirror opposite way. Instead of being forced to manage a slew of new liberal spending programs, as Nixon did, Obama had to cope with a revenue structure that had been decimated by Republicans.
Nan Aron of the Alliance For Justice notes that officially, because judges are retiring faster than Obama is nominating them and the Senate is confirming them, the number of judicial vacancies is higher than it was at the beginning of the year.
Yet more evidence of a sinister Muslim Brotherhood conspiracy afoot:
The blinding waves of brown particles, the most recent of which hit Phoenix on Monday, are caused by thunderstorms that emit gusts of wind, roiling the desert landscape. Use of the term "haboob," which is what such storms have long been called in the Middle East, has rubbed some Arizona residents the wrong way.
Study finds the abortion pill is safe and effective.
Scary: Ghana's regional minister has "ordered the immediate arrest of all homosexuals in the country's west."
This deal is getting worse all the time.
Looks like Maryland is going to take another shot at marriage equality.
Sherrilyn Ifill has an interesting piece up on the Equal Justice Initiative's new report on the death penalty in Alabama. Unlike other states, Alabama has a policy of judicial override which allows judges to impose the death penalty in cases where the jury has decided on a sentence of life in prison. Delaware and Florida also allow this, but they have restrictions that make overrides much rarer whereas Alabama has none at all.
Jacob Silverman, observing that the American superhero genre is largely is highly informed by Jewish history, argues that the problem with today's superhero blockbusters is that they've gotten away from their Heeb roots:
So Campus Progress has a well done infographic contrasting the deportation numbers in a given month with president Obama's rhetoric on immigration policy. The administration has said it is focused on deporting undocumented immigrants who are a threat to public safety, but in practice there are far more non-criminal removals than criminal ones:
Spencer Ackerman makes an observation that can't be repeated enough:
So I asked Karen Greenberg, director of NYU's Center on Law and Security to help me out here. According to Karen, if you count dismissals by either the judge or the government, the conviction rate in terrorism cases is 87 percent. If you don't, the rate is 95 percent.
That's compared to a 91 percent conviction rate (.pdf) for all criminal cases.

Pew has a fascinating and grim new poll out on how Muslims and Westerners view each other. The poll concludes that "Muslim and Western publics continue to see relations between them as generally bad, with both sides holding negative stereotypes of the other." Anti-Semitism is also prevalent, as citizens of Muslim countries have particularly negative views of Jews, whose favorable ratings remain in the single digits among all the countries surveyed. September 11 denialism is also very prevalent in Muslim countries, with majorities in all the countries surveyed denying that Arabs were responsible for the 9/11 attacks.
When then-candidate Rick Scott and the police unions were butting heads over Scott's plans to reduce prison costs, I pointed out that neither side was particularly sympathetic. The police unions were accusing Scott of wanting to release dangerous criminals and Scott was arguing that forcing inmates to grow their own food was going to save money.
Midway through the Anthony Weiner scandal, folks on the Islamophobic right decided that a Democratic Congressman sending pictures of his penis wasn't humiliating enough and concluded that Weiner was part of an Islamist plot to take over America, because his wife Huma Abedin is a Muslim.
Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, perhaps worried that their plot had been uncovered, devoted a section to mocking Weiner in the latest issue of their magazine Inspire.
Most anti-LGBT murder victims are people of color.
Worst Congress ever.
The hunger strike at Pelican Bay prison continues.
Dana Goldstein on fighting unemployment.
Maybe you heard that the Obama administration has been engaged in a large, unaccountable, covert shadow war against terrorist groups using special forces and armed drones.
Almost nowhere else is there such a tight link between class and opinions about cutting government.
For the GOP, there's no real benefit in admitting Obamacare is working.
Liberals are exasperated with conservatives' unwillingness to acknowledge fact about health care, and other things. But they'd better get used to it.

Loading content ...
NUMBER 113. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. NOVEMBER, 1900. (Thirty-second Year.) ATLANTA UNIVERSITY. The higher education of carefully selected Negro young men and women, in both academic and industrial lines, is emphasized by this Institution as necessary for the elementary and industrial training of the masses. "Men of light and leading" in other spheres of activity are also greatly needed by the race that has so long sat in darkness. Earnestly Christian, as required by its charter, yet entirely unsectarian, the Institution is controlled solely by its own board of trustees, on which several denominations are represented. Some 300 students are enrolled under 27 officers and teachers. From the college and normal courses 382 graduates have been sent out, nearly all of whom have readily found permanent employment in teaching or other useful occupations. Situated only about seventy miles from the centre of the Negro population of the country, in one of the largest Southern cities, and at the railroad centre of the South, its location is of strategic importance for promoting the educational advancement of the South. Its plant includes sixty-five acres of land, five large brick buildings, library of 11,000 volumes, apparatus and other equipment worth not less than $250,000, With practically no endowment, with no aid from public or denominational funds, receiving about one-fourth of its support from its own students, the Institution appeals for an endowment of $500,000, and, until that is secured, for $25,000 annually to meet current expenses. Gifts of any amount are welcome, but special appeal is made for subscriptions of $100 and upwards, and for $40 scholarships. Remittances may be addressed to Pres. Horace Bums lead, D. D., Atlanta, Ga, On The Campus Pros. Homer T. Fuller, of Drury College, Mo., paid us a flying visit just before the opening of our school year. The students have come, this year, from an unusually wide area, more states being represented than any previous year since the dropping of the grades in 1894. The sermon Oct. 14 was by Prof. Murray of Gammon Theological Seminary; Oct. 21 and Oct. 28 by Rev. Martin Post, who has returned to Atlanta after a summer spent, with his family, in New York city. Pres. Bumstead was one of the speakers at the annual meeting of the American Missionary Association in Springfield, Mass., Oct. 23-25. His theme was, The Higher Education of the Negro. His treatment of the subject was most effective, and highly commended. Two fellowships have been established by vote of the trustees, open to our college graduates who are pursuing resident study leading to the degree of A. M. Holders of these fellowships will be expected to assis t in teaching a part of the time. The remuneration they will receive, although not large, will be sufficient to guarantee them self-support during the school year. There have been added to our list of secondary schools whose graduates have entered this year, since our last issue, Haines Normal and Industrial Institute in Augusta, and the Prairie View State Normal School at Prairie View,Texas. We now have eight new members of the Freshman class, and four of the Senior Normal class, in each case an unprecedented number, who have entered, on trial, by certificate from secondary schools. News of our Graduates '80—An article by Robert L. Smith, The Elevation of Negro Farm Life, with very favorable editorial comment upon it, appeared in the New York Independent of Aug. 30. '82—Mrs. Anna B. (Powers) Bond has for the past three or four years been the teacher of sewing at Wil-berforce University, Xenia, Ohio. '85—Mr. Moses J.

Chief Chuqualataque Doublehead
Doublehead's Legacy
Perhaps the most interesting of the Cherokee chiefs in the Tennessee Basin of Alabama was Chief Doublehead or Talo Tiske meaning "two heads." Chief Doublehead established a town on the Tennessee River at the head of Muscle Shoals in 1790. This village sat at the mouth of Blue Water Creek in Lauderdale County.
Muscle Shoals had always been an area of dispute between Chickasaws and Cherokees, though it was known as "Chickasaw Hunting Grounds." When Doubleheads occupation of Muscle Shoals came into question, Chief George Colbert of the Chickasaws confirmed that Doublehead was at Muscle Shoals by his permission. This new agreement seems less unusual considering that Colbert had married two of Doublehead's daughters.
Doublehead's brother was Chief Old Tassel, one of the Cherokees most well-known and beloved chiefs. When he was murdered with the aid of the white mayor James Hubbert, Doublehead went on the rampage, attacking white settlers throughout the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee. This six year warpath from 1788 to 1794 is well chronicled, and though it was no doubt exaggerated by the afflicted, the chiefs terrible "atrocities" certainly add up to a significant sum. He was even accused of encouraging his warriors to cannibalism of the dead during this escapade.
At the end of his warpath, Doublehead met with President George Washington at the nation's capital, and he returned a changed man. Though he began to mimic the ways of the whites and built a large cabin, he continued to defend the Cherokees land rights in various treaties until his death. This change of heart was characteristic of the Cherokees during this time, many of whom adopted the manners and customs of the whites. He even went as far as forming the Doublehead Company that leased 1,000 acres to more than 50 white settlers between the Elk River and Cypress Creek.
Doublehead was murdered in a savagely interesting tale chronicled by the famous Indian canoe fighter, Sam Dale. On a trip to a ball game on the Hiwasee River, Doublehead engaged in a series of arguments with two Cherokee warriors and a white Indian trader.
Served under Chief Dragging Canoe
Chief Doublehead was a bloodthirsty Chief who served under Chief Dragging Canoe. He commanded the expedition against Knoxville in 1793.It is said that he traveled to Tennessee near now Athens, Tennessee in 1807 to attend a stick ball game and while there he bragged about having sold Cherokee Lands for a lot of money even though It was a death sentence to do so. He was attacked in the MCIntosh Tavern by Major Ridge,James Vann and Alexander Saunders, where he was wounded and fled to the home of James Black a missionary, where he died. It is said he was a brother to Old Tassel. He was a full blood Chickamauga Cherokee Warrior, as well as Tahlonteeskee, his Brother-in-law.
In the summer of 1807, the Cherokees had a great ball play on the Hiwassee River. This was their national sport, and attracted immense crowds. On this occasion there were more than a thousand Indians present, besides the officers from Hiwassee Fort, and numerous traders attracted by the prospect of selling their merchandise.
The central figure among the Cherokees was the famous Chief Doublehead. Gen. Sam Dale, of Mississippi, then a Georgian Indian trader, who is authority for the following account of his death, knew Doublehead and called upon him. Sam, you are a mighty liar, was his greeting. When Dale demanded why he thus insulted him in public, a smile illuminated his grim face as he replied, You have never kept your promise to come and see me. You know you have lied. He then produced a bottle of whiskey, and invited Dale and the officers present to drink with him. When they had emptied the bottle, he rejected Dale's offer to replenish it, saying, When I am in the white man's country, I will drink your liquor, but here you must drink with Doublehead.
After the game was over a chief named Bone-polisher approached Doublehead and denounced him as a traitor for selling the land of his people. The stolid chief remaining tranquil and silent, Bone-polisher became still more angry, accompanying his abuse with menacing gestures. Then Doublehead spoke, quietly and without agitation: Go away. You have said enough. Leave me, or I shall kill you. Bone-polisher rushed at him with his tomahawk, which Doublehead received on his left arm, and drawing his pistol, shot him through the heart.
Some time after night, Doublehead, who had been drinking, came in to Hiwassee Ferry, and entered McIntosh's tavern. Among those whom he encountered there was a chief named Ridge, afterwards Major Ridge, a half-breed called Alex. Saunders, and John Rodgers, an old white man who had long resided in the nation. Rodgers began to revile him, much after the manner of Bone-polisher. Doublehead proudly rebuked him: You live by sufferance among us. I have never seen you in council nor on the war-path. You have no place among the chiefs. Be silent and interfere no more with me. The old man still persisted, and Doublehead attempted to shoot him, but his pistol, not having been charged, missed fire. The light was then extinguished, and at the same instant a pistol shot was fired. When the light was rekindled, Ridge, Saunders, and Rodgers had all disappeared, and Doublehead lay motionless on his face. The ball had shattered his lower jaw and lodged in the nape of his neck.
His friends now set out with him for the garrison, but fearing they would be overtaken, turned aside, and concealed him in the loft of Schoolmaster Black's house. Two warriors of the Bone-polisher clan traced Doublehead by his blood to his hiding place. At the same time Ridge and Saunders came galloping up, shouting the war whoop. Sam Dale and Col. James Brown, of Georgia, followed them. The wounded chief was lying on the floor, his jaw and arm terribly lacerated. Ridge and Saunders each leveled his pistol, but both missed fire. Doublehead sprang upon Ridge and would have overpowered him had not Saunders discharged his pistol and shot him through the hips. Saunders then made a rush on Doublehead with his tomahawk, but the dying chief wrenched it from him, and again leaped upon Ridge. Saunders seized another tomahawk and drove it into his brain. When he fell another Indian crushed his head with a spade. It is interesting to note that, after the tribe had been removed to the west, Major Ridge was himself executed in the same manner, for a like offense.
The murder of Chief Doublehead August 9, 1807
Cherokee Chief Doublehead is executed by The Ridge, James Vann and Alexander Saunders
It marked the end of an era in the Cherokee Nation and the rise of the republic.
Doublehead had grown powerful by giving Cherokee land to the government through the liberal bribes of Indian Agent Return J. Miegs. The tribal council had made it a crime punishable by death to cede Cherokee land to anyone. Doublehead continued to allow settlers into Cherokee land, and traded holdings with the United States.
Ridge, Vann and Sauders, possibly with the approval of the Cherokee Council, sought Doublehead. The first attempt to kill Doublehead ended when Vann, who was to perform the task, was too drunk. Other attempts followed, but finally Ridge succeeded.
Ironically, Ridge would receive the same punishment for signing the Treaty of New Echota in 1835

The Cherokee Doublehead Chiefs were also strongly linked to Canatuckahoe (Kentucky)as well as other Cherokee areas. An example, among many, is Tuckahoe himself is a Doublehead connected Cherokee. Doublehead Cave is in Kentucky, not what is now Tennessee, as well, and several Doublehead Chiefs were born and lived most of their lives, and died in what is now Kentucky. The Upper Cherokee are often left out of the current historical Cherokee record. It is time to to correct the record.ReplyDelete

How is Seqouyah (George Gist) related to Amadoya Moytoy?ReplyDeleteReplies
Some Gists were with D. Boone in his early days high on the Upper Kentucky River, near the present Virginia border, at places like Acup Creek, in Perry County, probably connected to the herbal trade in the area. Cherokee guides often showed Boone the Cherokee back country and Overhills Region and Upper Tribe areas. Doublehead Creek is in present Clay County, KY, for example. The Cherokee Kings made money from the herbal trade, among other business ventures and early on were paid lease fees by white pioneers. The Dr Dishman Combs linked Cherokee families of the Acup, KY,area,sometimes called Mill Seed Community, near Happy, seem to have Gist and Sequoyah links. martin redbird, cherokeeempire.bravehost.comDelete

A Bird Doublehead turns up as an inscription at an ancient Central American site that was "discovered" by Spanyards in the early Colonial era of Central America.

It has Doubleheads Stone and grave in a small area behind the house.Delete
One way to look at Chief(s) Doublehead is as a family group. There are various "Chief Doublehead" individuals, related by family and/or band. The top chiefs sometimes acted for each other in the chiefs name with his consent, much like an assistant chief today in Cherokee Nation. We should give the Doublehead Chiefs numbers to track them each as individuals. A good place to start is Doublehead Creek in present Clay County, KY, southeast Kentucky. Some of these folks images are painted into the Kentucky Capitol building dome. Cherokee Tribe is the official tribe of Kentucky. cherokeeempire.bravehost.comDelete

This post is an eye opener. I have read in other post that Bone polisher was to be punished for a crime of brutalness that he committed against his wife. The Cousin of Creat Priber one of the 3 of Chief Doubleheads wives. Creat Priber, Nancy ( Drum doogler)?, and Aisley of the Red paint clan.Chief Doublehead was the Marshall in town and went to take care of this at the Bone polishers resident. Then on the way back he stopped in at the bar and was murdered by the Ridge and the other guy for Selling Cherokee land illegally. Which he didn't do. The proof is in the pudding. Doublehead fought and was greatly feared for the land. Miers, The Ridge and all the other so called grand cherokee got busted as noted above. It's a fact that till today, out in Oklahoma The Cherokee still think Cheif Doublehead took the bribes. The fact is that the White man couldn't touch him, so they lied to protect the real theives like Ridge, and who else? Honor goes to Doublehead My 5th Grandpa. I am the oldest left in my family with many stories of old.ReplyDeleteReplies

Does anyone know how Chief Doublehead was related to the Nevels family in Wayne County, Ky. I have always heard that he got his name because he was born with two heads, not because of his personality. I've heard this from many older people in Wayne County.Does anyone know for sure?ReplyDeleteReplies
I do not think he is but I am not sure who his fathers side was, the two heads is because of the golden chest our family took off hernando de soto,when he came to alabama, and gave the chest to the chickasaw indians, they took it to the chief and hence all the "Double Head" names. It made our chief Double Head undefeatable so our family legend says. According to my great great grandmothers, if a person touched it, they would die. But, if you was in possission of it, you were great in battle.I am his 8th great grand son, I sit on his seat as Chief TwoChief in our family Cherokee Indian NationDelete
The United states of America does Not have the right to say that we are not completely sovereign because we depend on domestics, "Oh YEAH, LIKE WHAT? YOUR land, sir? You take somebody in, teach them to hunt, fish, plant, build, ride horses, Herbal medicine, everything they could not do on there own, because they were running away from there own land because they didnt want to follow Englands laws.ReplyDelete
So we took there diseases on ourselves trying to help them survive. For our effort, we are led out in a trail of tears, the great INDIAN REMOVAL ACT, A DAM ACT OF WAR AND WAR CRIME! Traitors! The North Union has no treaties with the Cherokee or the Chickasas Indians, my family. No, you killed my great grand father, Chief Double Head, and drove my family into the ground, sir! You Stole our land! No, sir, you cannot put up a fence to keep our mexican brothers off of there own land, our land! If the USA doesnt work out, Oh well, right? You can always go home, where do the Native Americans go? We've been here for ten thousand years, not you. No, sir, you ruined our land, North Union! The South could do better than this! And FYI, rich bankers didnt build america, Black African Americans did!
The truth is more like, James vann was lying about under the table land deals with the chief, whom they picked because of his lack of education, as he didnt believe in it.HE WAS NEVER BRIBED! When DoubleHead got wind of it, he rode up to the Hiwassie rivers cherokee nation agency to whip and kill the drunkard coward liar, back shooting pig james vann.Whom shot the chief in the back in the tavern as he stood at the bar, and then had to fight him all the way to an attic of a school teachers house, where they knifed him to death slowly.No war, just murder. The cherokee indians had active peace treaties with the white settlers when they committed the Indain Removal Act.That voided all that hopewell sh**. COWBOYS AND INDIANS AGAIN!ReplyDeleteReplies

In majestic Madrid, the Prado gallery houses haunting El Greco paintings, and 20th-century art fills Frank Gehry's Guggenheim in Bilbao. It's easy to pack your Barcelona visit with Gaudi's eccentric mosaics, while in vibrant Seville the royal palace Alcazar drips with Moorish influence. Snorkel in the warm Mediterranean waters off sandy beaches, threaded along the southern Spanish coast.
In Malaga, take a romantic walk to the craggy ramparts of Gibralfaro Castle for views of the sandy coastline. Wake up in your romantic restored townhouse hotel, to fall in love with hot, sensual Seville. Andalucian neighbour, Granada's Moorish Alhambra, is dotted with carved ceramics and Koranic inscriptions. For solace, it's easy to lose yourselves exploring Barcelona's medieval lanes in the Gothic Quarter.
A Spanish night out starts, and ends, late. For local flavour, Madrid's passionate flamenco tradition lives on in local tablaos restaurant-theatres. In Seville, explore the eclectic riverfront bars with hip locals or if you're the clubbing type, head to busy resort Torremolinos for a frenetic dance party in laser-filled clubs.
It's a short walk from Barcelona's centre to the urban beaches for seaside fun or a thrilling cable-car ride to Montserrat's hilltop monastery. Paddle at the golden sands of Costa Brava's resorts, and spot dolphins from glass-bottomed catamarans off Malaga's coast. Sporty families take to the ski slopes in Sierra Nevada.

Application Servers
Sometimes referred to as a type of middleware, application servers occupy a large chunk of computing territory between database servers and the end user, often connecting the two.
Looking for a server that meets specific requirements? Please select key criteria from the features noted below. (Hint: To maximize results, check off only the most critical requirements.)
Sometimes referred to as a type of middleware, application servers occupy a large chunk of computing territory between database servers and the end user, often connecting the two.
In many ways, collaboration software, once called 'groupware,' demonstrates the original power of the Web.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) makes it possible to move files from one computer to another via the Internet. Although one of the oldest Internet services, FTP has kept pace with the times.
Today, many FTP servers include user authentication, file transfer policies, and detailed activity logging.
List servers offer a way to better manage mailing lists, whether they be interactive discussions open to the public or one-way lists that deliver announcements, newsletters or advertising.
Ubiquitous and critical, mail servers move and store email over private networks and across the Internet
Operating systems provide a software platform on top of which other programs, called application programs, can run. It is the engine that drives the server.
A proxy server in a network architecture is what its name implies: a stand in. A proxy server sits between corporate client machines and the Internet. Sometimes it is a stand-alone product; more often, it is functionality built into other software. A forward proxy stands in the way of the Internet and receives data from client machines bound for the Internet and forwards it on on their behalf. A reverse proxy stands in the way of servers within the corporate network and receives data bound for them, and distributes it on.
Our real-time communication server category consists of chat servers, instant messaging servers, instant messaging gateway servers, and IRC servers.
In the fast-paced world of IT, servers come and go. This section is for those servers that are no longer sold or supported but that an organization, for whatever reason, may be interested in learning more about.
A telnet server enables users to log on to a host computer and perform tasks as if they're working on the remote computer itself.
At its core, Web servers send static content to a Web browser by loading a file from a disk and sending it across the network to a user's Web browser. Browsers and Web servers communicate with each other using HTTP to mediate the exchange.

The timeless charm and elegance of amber is well known worldwide. Amber is acquired and re-sold by the top jewelers and jewelry shops around the world. Great Russian Gifts specializes in the most popular type of natural amber gathered in Baltic region of Russia: Baltic amber. Our line of amber jewelry handcrafted in sterling silver and honey, cherry or green amber represents both tradition and elegancy that will never be out of style. We handpick and inspect every single piece of amber jewelry on our website.
You can also find some of the best examples of the lacquer miniature painting displayed in our lacquer box gallery. Palekh, Fedoskino, Mstera and Kholui style lacquered boxes are still available and wait to impress your loved ones with their extraordinary beauty. Most of these lacquer boxes feature artwork or scenes from famous Russian fairy tales or stories. All of the lacquer boxes we have are Great Russian Gifts exclusive pieces. We guarantee that all of the boxes are one-of-a-kind and truly unique examples of Russian culture and art.
If you are not sure what to give to a child or a friend, our extensive selection of speaking Russian plush toys like cheburashka could be the answer.

The cheburashka clearly "speaks" nine different friendly Russian phrases, and with its cute angelic eyes, it is hard not to fall in love with this exotic creature. Cheburashka is definitely a Russian doll that everyone will enjoy regardless of age.
You can also discover the charm of old Russia through our collection of authentic handmade Christmas ornaments. Our unique collection of Christmas craft ornaments can turn any Christmas tree into a one-of-a-kind delight. You can start a personal collection or a family collection of handmade ornaments from the individually sold matryoshka-style handmade ornaments, or you could purchase an entire ornament set. In an ornament set, nearly nine Christmas tree ornaments are stored inside a large single babushka doll. Unlike traditional Christmas stores that often have wide assortment of glass or plastic mass produced ornaments, Great Russian Gifts specializes in handmade ornaments that are available in very limited quantities and often could not be found anywhere else.
If you are looking for a small complementary gift, please consider our painted broach collection, ceramic netsuke or refrigerator magnets that come in both animal style and babushka style. Each refrigerator magnet is shaped like an animal or a nesting doll. Surprise your loved ones with one of our netsuke figurines, a Russian themed miniature ceramic sculpture originated in 17th century Japan. Hand painted flower lacquer broaches are both beautiful and elegant; these broaches are another great gift idea that will fit anyone's budget.
Popular Soviet collectibles such as a Russian fur hat, (also known as ushanka) and a Soviet themed flask seem to always be in fashion; instead of losing their appeal, these items are often the most desirable gifts. Ushankas were a common part of the Soviet army's winter uniform. Now this famous Russian hat is one of the most stylish items from the Soviet era (with a practical use too). Another popular Soviet attribute is a stainless steel flask. Being both stylish and versatile, our Soviet and Russian themed flasks will get your friends attention they deserve.

While pregnancy is a wonderful time, sometimes you don't feel so wonderful! When I was pregnant, I had a horrible stuffy nose that lasted all 9 months! To make matters worse, I couldn't take any medication. What is your worst pregnancy symptom and how do you cope with it? -- Bonnie, Strongmoms Facilitator
I am 4 weeks and 2 days. I would have to say cramps and nasal stuffiness just like yours. I'm cramping alot more because I have ovarian cysts as well from when i ovulated. Luckily they are no concern based on the ultrasound today :) whew! my coping has been re-positioning and some heat, mostly re-positioning. For the stuffiness, vicks baby rub, humidifier, and saline nasal spray :) Any other advice for the stuffiness?
Stuffy nose, yes! I need my ceiling fan going all the time when I sleep or I can't breathe at night. To make matters worse than that...I get nosebleeds every other day. I find it's best not to blow my nose if I can stand it, because the vessels will rupture. So far it's working, even though it drives me crazy!
I hate to say that I never really found anything that completely took away the stuffy nose, but saline spray helped and so did wearing breath right strips. In addition, a little vicks vapor rub helped. Talk to your doctor and see if she recommends something specific. Every doctor is different about what products they want you to use and not use when you are pregnant.
@mommyRN4.... thanks for the advice. i will def talk to my doc.
i have the same problem with my nose!!! i always have my fan on, and its always dry and im always getting nose bleeds!!! Thought i was alone :D
Wow - sounds like lots of people had stuffy noses! Guess I was lucky to skip that one! My least favorite symptom was the pressure that pregnancy put on my sciatic nerve and I'd get SHOOTING pain down my hip and right leg. That wasn't fun. :-/
I'm a little over 35 weeks pregnant and I have had morning sickness the entire time since i was 6 weeks pregnant. Morning sickness is the worst thing for me, but it also lasts all day instead of just being in the morning like everyone else.
Oh my gosh. that is a long time to have all day nausea. That doesn't seem fair at all! Have you talked to your doctor at all about getting some medication to help with that? Have you tried the ginger teas? Gingerale? Ginger candy? I know that helps a lot of people. You are just going to feel so much better once you have that baby-you won't believe that you were able to tolerate being nauseas for so long. I'm also hoping some of the other members can help with other ideas for nausea. Hang in there, things can only get better! -Jess
It's horrible, I don't see how I can stand it myself, although I joke around and say that I am taking the symptoms my sister didn't have because she had a very easy pregnancy. I've also tried everything, its really weird because drinking gingerale will work one day and then have no effect the next day. I went to my doctor and she gave me some pills to help, although I don't like taking them because i get really tired and lazy. I can't wait to get my baby out, it feels like it is just around the corner!
I've been pregnant 5 times and I think I have had all of the pregnancy symptoms by now! I seemed to have new ones every pregnancy and then there are always the standard ones--heartburn, stuffy nose, nausea.
This last pregnancy though, I had restless leg syndrome. It is weird cause my legs just wanted to move when I was trying to sleep! It was very annoying. Did anyone else experience this?
when i was pregnant with my now 3 year old son i had really bad morning sickness that lasted all day and it was like that for my first 6 months of being pregnant
Just like me blckrose4u101, still remember the time that I was pregnant with my little girl.I had a morning sickness and I keep on vomiting that last from 2 months of my pregnancy until 7 months. I was thin at that time because every after I am done eating I then vomit and vomit.
During also my pregnancy I had a sleepless nights because of heartburn. I often have headache as well.
Ugh that would be bad to have morning sickness for so long!
