Finding names or name that go with Lydia
We have decided on Lydia for a name for our girl. We do not plan on calling her Lydia as one of our 3 girls happens to be Olivia. We are honoring a Grandmother and I happen to love the name, the name is set. Trying to find a name that sounds elegant with an unusual nickname. I love long names and am thinking of either a long middle or two shorter middle names. Please give suggestions on names if you have any and please tell me your opinions on these names. I would love some ideas.
Lydia Katherine Adelle Cotton......We would call her Adelia (Ad e lie a)
Lydia Katherine Odelle Cottton.....Odessa
Lydia Katherine Adaire Cotton........?
Lydia Anneliese Cotton................Naliese

Android OS Tops Smartphone Market
136 million Android units shipped, making up 75% of the market.
The Android mobile operating system was found on three out of every four smartphones shipped in the third quarter of 2012, according to a recent report from International Data Corporation (IDC). The report says 136 million Android units were shipped, making up 75 percent of the roughly 181 million total smartphones shipped during the quarter. IDC notes that Android's growth rate of 91 percent was nearly double that of the overall market and that Samsung again led vendors in the Android phone space.
The report shows Apple's iOS in second place with 14.9 percent of market share, and BlackBerry in third at just over 4 percent at the end of the quarter. However, IDC points out that BlackBerry 10 is planned for 2013 and says "demand for BlackBerry and its wildly popular BBM service is strong within multiple key markets worldwide, and the number of subscribers continues to increase."
The largest decline was seen by Symbian, which fell to 2.3 percent – compared to 14.6 percent in 3Q11. The major vendors now supporting Symbian are transitioning to other operating systems and are expected to cease shipping Symbian-powered smartphones in 2013, IDC said.
Microsoft's Windows Phone shipped 3.6 million units worldwide; however, according to the report, that could change when multiple Windows Phone 8 smartphones reach the market in the fourth quarter. You can read IDC's press release here.

But watch Johnny Matheney effortlessly arch and extend each finger on his bionic arm and you can't help but agree with him when he says: "The future is coming now."
Its makers describe Matheney's robotic limb as the most sophisticated of its kind in the world, recreating virtually every movement of a natural arm -- and all controlled by brain power.
"When they took my arm I never thought I would have an actual hand -- I saw the hooks and thought that was exactly what I would be getting," said Matheney, who lost his left arm to cancer in 2008.
"So once they introduced me to this, it was like something out of space come to Earth."

The cognitive science program spans a wide range of interests, including perception, memory, thought, language and action. Research methods include psychophysics, measures of behavioural performance and movement, brain imaging and computational modeling. The primary aim of the program is to ensure that each student acquires an in-depth understanding of research and theorizing in their area of specialization, and that they build up a substantive record of innovative research in that area. Initially, students will work in close collaboration with an advisor, but they are expected to develop into independent researchers as they progress through the program.
Prospective graduate student applicants are encouraged to contact members of the core faculty directly to inquire about training opportunities in specific research areas. Formal applications are made through the Department's Graduate Secretary.
M.A. Program
The M.A. program requires the completion of two courses in statistics, four courses in cognitive science, one breadth course in psychology (but outside cognitive science), and a thesis. The M.A. program is intended to be completed in 2 years.
Ph.D. Program
The Ph.D. program requires the completion of two further courses in cognitive science, two breadth courses, comprehensive exams, and a dissertation. The Ph.D. program is typically completed in 3-4 years after the M.A.
The area is fortunate in having varied and extensive laboratory facilities housed in an attractive building designed specifically for psychological research. All laboratories are equipped with state-of the art equipment such as computers and eye movement monitors. Most computers are connected to a campus-wide wireless network, which in turn provides access to all libraries on and off the campus, to e-mail, fax facilities and Internet. The area has access to several clinical populations of interest to cognitive scientists (e.g., infants, children, split brain patients, Alzheimer's disease, or Huntington's disease, head injury, multiple sclerosis, patients undergoing anesthesia). The area also has access to brain imaging facilities including fMRI, MEG, and 64-channel EEG.

I want to create an Android application where a user can create an account which basically stores their username and password, and photos. I want to use a Microsoft Access Database, a user once logged in can take a photo using the android device and the photo is automatically sent to the database and stored under the user account. I don't want to use the internal SQL lite database, the whole aim of this is to store photos taken on a server as opposed to the device.
If I have an access database created on my server, is it possible to accomplish this?
1) Dont use access. It has crap locking and transaction support, if you have multiple users accessing remotely (as you will do) it will not work.
2) Dont save the file in the DB itself, upload it to your server somehow, and then save the PATH to the file in the DB.
Ive done a similar thing to get an android app writing some data to an Oracle DB.
I basically had the Android APP POST over HTTP whatever it wanted to save as JSON to a Java Servlet running on my web server, which handled the actual database interaction.
jbennet thanks for your reply, Basically Access was the only way I could think of doing it, I suppose my question should have been which is the best way to do it. So if I can figure out how to send data to a folder in my server instead? This may be too complex for me after all. :(
Yes just send the data using the POST method over HTTPS - and have your web code handle putting that in the database. - the code on the web side for doing this would be no different to if it was getting the data from, say, an HTML form.
I have been trying to do this all day, upload files to a folder on my server using a secure ftp connection, but I cannot figure out how to do this using HTML. I usually just connect manually using FileZilla, trying to do this any other way seems impossible.
Any thoughts?
I just want to upload files to my server, I know I can link to that folder from within my database, then I should be finished.
Dont use FTP - POST it as binary data over HTTP.
Sorry being really stupid, but I have no idea how to connect to a folder on my server, I only know how to access my server using FTP, I shall have to research your suggestion see if I can see an example!! Thanks!!!!!
You dont connect to a folder.
Take a normal web signup page, for example, right?
In that case, you would have a plain HTML form which POSTS some data (username, whatever) to some web code to handle the database interaction.
its the same. You just need to POST the expected fields from the phone to a web app (posting the image as a binary file is the difficult bit), and let the web server handle what to do with the data once it gets it (i.e. save image away somewhere, insert associated data into database)

San Diego Gay & Lesbian News (01.30.13)
Aids Weekly Plus
A University of Michigan study reports that public health officials in 14 Michigan jurisdictions are using information from the HIV surveillance names reporting database to find and prosecute HIV- or STD-infected people who are legally considered a "health threat." In addition to asking a newly diagnosed client for the name of the client's sexual partner(s), the public health officials are inquiring whether the sexual partner disclosed HIV status before having sex.
It is a felony or misdemeanor in 24 states for an HIV-infected person to have sex without first disclosing HIV status to a partner. In Michigan, failure to disclose HIV status prior to having sex is a felony punishable by up to four years in prison, even if the sexual partner was never at risk for HIV. People who oppose the use of data from the names reporting database for legal action urge transparency in the use of epidemiological data and recommend public health officials use the confidential medical information only for treatment referral and partner counseling.
Trevor Hoppe, author of the study, stated he also found inconsistency across the state in health officials' definition of "health threat." Some officials described HIV-infected women who became pregnant or infected with another STD as health threats.
The full report, "'Public Health': Social Control and Michigan HIV Law," was published online in the journal Social Problems (2013; doi:10.1525/sp.2013.11178).

1381 Primerose Creek, Buford, GA | Directions 3051834.122391 -84.040399
Just wanted to let you know how impressed we were with the driver and the limo. The driver was there on time (early even). He spoke to a few of the parents and we all thought he was terrific! The kids had a great time at the prom and he made sure they all got home safely. We will definitely call Airline Limousine Service for next year's prom and hopefully he will be available to drive!
I wanted to thank you so much for such a great night out with all my friends! The limo was so nice it was the best part of the whole night! Our limo driver was very friendly and did an amazing job! I would recommend Airline Limousine Service to all my friends and family and I look forward to future bookings with you.
Excellent professional airport service. Prompt, courteous driver, clean car. Would use again.
Airline Limousine Service is super reliable, professional and classy.
I use this service almost every week for the past 4 months. I was so sick of the endless hold times and the ocassional cab that would show up for scheduled pickups. No more.
The best thing about these guys is they have a great fleet to choose from and different driver personalities to fit any occasion. Limos, towncars and fun party guy to uber-professional class master. Thanks for making life easier. There are few things I can say really make my world function : a cellphone, sunglasses, credit card, my red carpet club membership, laptop, and the dudes at Airline Limousine Service.
Business or pleasure, they are soild. Thanks!
I just used Airline Limousine Service for the first time today and was blown away by the friendly service, prompt pick up and clean limo. My friends and I had a great time riding in Sugar Hill and we enjoyed talking to our driver. I will definitely be using this company again!
My company uses this service fairly often to pick up international clients at the airport. The driver has never let us down, and is consistently punctual and friendly. He is patient when a flight is delayed or something changes. The clients always have something positive to say about the service. I would most certainly recommend Airline Limousine Service for any and all limo needs!
Rented a Limo to go out on the town with some friends after a seminar - It was a blast! Limo driver was a fun addition to our party! Funny guy...He also knew more interesting Sugar Hill, GA places to take us when we were running out of ideas. Price was comparable to other places I called. Great job!
I used Airline Limousine Service for a birthday party. The dispatcher was very personable and professional as was the driver. It was a relatively low key night with dinner and late night dancing. Some of our guests wanted to leave early so our driver took them home and returned to meet us. The driver kept in contact with us by text throughout the night so we wouldn't be kept waiting anywhere.
We had a great experience with Airline Limousine Service and will be using them again in the future!!
I used Airline Limousine Service for my trip from airport to my downtown hotel.
The driver was on time and handled all my luggage professionally. I recommend them and will use them again for my return trip to Sugar Hill in a few months.
I needed a last minute ride up to a business meeting in Sugar Hill and a nice, comfy limousine was at my door within 20 minutes. I had called 4 other companies prior to finding their number and none of the other companies could find me a pickup within 3 hours. Their pricing is reasonable and the driver was very polite, I'll definitely use Airline Limousine Service again!

Elqui Domos is a very unique lodging offer, it is one of the 7 astronomic hotels worldwide, and the only one in the South Hemisphere. Come enjoy the magic skies of Elqui Valley.
We noticed that shapes and philosophy of geodesic buildings, domes, were just perfect for our objective, and that is how we defined the basic elements for the final design: the bed should be as high as possible and over it the chance of a detachable roof, for a dream of stargazing from your bed; and all the comfort you would need inside the room for not getting disturbed on the feelings of such experience.
Our rooms are 7 geodesic domes that on the inside are furnished in a two storey plan: on the first floor a living room and the bathroom, and in the second storey the main bed and a detachable roof over it.
Each dome has an ample terrace. Other services, such as fridge bar, free tea & coffee and specialized astronomic literature, are also part of what we offer.
Services are focused on sky wealth, so they are composed of: specialized astronomic tours, nighttime horse rides. Bike rental, daytime horse rides, car rental are available among other services. Please, let us know what you need, so we can set it up.
Astronomic tour: lasts 1 hour, includes full guide of skies and use of telescope. Cost $ 18.000 / USD 36 per room (spanish); or $ 30.000 / USD 60 per room (bilingual, tour is made by one guide)
- Nighttime Horse Ride: lasts 2 and a half hours, includes a basic guide of skies. Cost $ 18.000 / USD 36 per person
We stayed at ElquiDomos for one night while exploring the Elqui Valley region. We stayed in one of the observatory rooms, which was incredible. We loved that the room had a private patio on the top level, and the window above the bed offered an incredible view of the sky. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and were able to accommodate our schedule when serving dinner and breakfast. The food was slightly above average, but we definitely liked the fact that we could bring our own wine to dinner. Overall, our stay was a great, unique experience.
First and foremost, transportation is the biggest thing. Pisco Elqui is a small town with no taxi service (or bus station for that matter). We did know this going in from another guest's review, but honestly thought we could figure something out. If you go here, you should really rent a car because there is no good way to get around. We couldn't find the bus that was recommended to us by the host before leaving La Serena, so we just took a bus from La Serena to Pisco Elqui and figured we could figure out the rest once we arrived. Once we arrived we saw nothing to help us get to our destination. As we stood around looking dazed and confused a local man tried to help us and ended up giving us a ride (for $6000 Chilean pesos, about $12 USD) for the 4 km ride. Once we were there we spent the night and didn't go anywhere, but the next day we decided to walk to town as he said it was 3.5 km away. It took about 50 minutes (as there are hills and whatnot, and we are pretty sure it must be more than 3.5 km per the street signs noting distance). Either way it wasn't a bad walk but wouldn't recommend doing more than once. The hotel has a listing of activities you can do, but you need a car to get to one of the surrounding towns where the activities take place (there is no hotel pickup). The hotel itself does offer an astromony tour (we had done one the night before from La Serena so we didn't do this, but seems like it would be nice since it is on the property), as well as massage and meditation. I tried to book both the massage and meditation but neither were available for the next day. In town the only thing is the Pisco Mistral distillery tour (which is only in Spanish) for about $6000. Otherwise, without a car there is not much more to do.
In regards to the hotel itself. The staff were all very nice and accomadating even with the language barrier. The lobby area is the only place the wifi works, but is a nice area to sit in. There is a pool and lounge chairs (it was too cold when we were there). The breakfast is by far the best breakfast ever!! They give you lots of choices, even including eggs (which you don't see too often for breakfast down here)! As for the other meals, we did not eat lunch or dinner there, I'm sure it is good, but keep in mind it is about $20 USD per person per meal. We stayed one night each in both units. The dome is cool for sleeping under the stars (which we still did and it was winter, not cold really at all with the right blankets), but the interesting shaped building is probably the best! It's really cool and you can still sleep under the stars, but at a slightly different angle and with glass between. Overall it was a cool experience, but really, really recommend renting a car to stay here.
Amazing place, domes are super cool/comfortable/its brilliant sleeping with the lid open under the stars - food in the restaurant is v good and reasonably priced, pool area grt to chill all in all v well done - but, you need a car as bus stops in Pisco Elqui (village before) where there are lots of good places to eat and nice place to visit - unless you use the neighbours 'taxi' service which is a bit of a rip off price wise...
Questo è il prezzo finale, incluso costi aggiuntivi dell'host e del servizio Airbnb.

Because I'm really not happy to hear this news…
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers declined the 2009 option for backup catcher Gary Bennett, paying a $50,000 buyout instead of exercising a $900,000 option.
What? No, the hell with him. I'd basically forgotten he even existed. The chances of Gary Bennett getting $900,000 were so small that I'm surprised the Dodgers didn't decline the option before the season even ended.
No, this is what I'm talking about:
The Dodgers declined the $9.25 million option for 2009 on pitcher Brad Penny and paid him a $2 million buyout, allowing the 30-year-old right-hander to become a free agent. After winning 16 games in both 2006 and 2007, Penny went 6-9 with a 6.27 ERA in 2008, spending three stints on the disabled list with shoulder tendinitis and he missed the postseason.
It shouldn't come as a surprise to you that I'm not in favor of this move, since I already advocated picking up his option in my 2009 plan, but I still think this is a huge mistake. This is what I said in that post:
Let me first say, if it turns out that he's more seriously injured than we know and he does need surgery, then forget it, buy him out. I'm going on the assumption that he's not that seriously hurt, because as I detailed after his last appearance, dudes with bum shoulders don't hit 96 on the gun. Nearly all of his problems seemed to be easily chalked up to rust, and I wouldn't at all be surprised to find out for sure that placing him on the DL was simply because they needed the roster spot and didn't think Penny would have a chance to pitch enough to work his way back into shape during a playoff push. So why am I picking this up? Two reasons, the first of which being, he was excellent as a Dodger before 2008. His ERA+ was better than league average in every year since he arrived in LA, and 2007 was fantastic at 16-4 with a 159 ERA+. I have a hard time believing that he's just "lost it" – again, barring a more serious injury we don't know about. The second reason is, it's cheap. Since the $8.75m option has a $2m buyout, we're only talking about $6.75m here. Do you really think you could go out and find a pitcher with his track record for one year, $6.75m? Of course not. This is exactly the kind of gamble a large-market team like the Dodgers should be taking.
My post said $8.75m because that's what Cot's Baseball Contracts said; I'm not sure why there's a discrepancy between that and the other story). But regardless of which salary number is correct, you're just not going to be able to get a pitcher with his pedigree at that salary number. It's really easy to forget with how bad Penny was for most of the year, but he got off to a very good start – 2.89 ERA in April. Then he got injured and admittedly tried to pitch through it, instead of telling the team. Imagine if he'd shut it down sooner – instead of having an ugly 6.27 ERA next to his name, maybe it'd only have been around 4.00 had he not been on the mound pushing through while injured. By comparision, look at Rafael Furcal. All we heard all summer was how great he was early in the season because he was still hitting about .366 when he went down. What if he'd tried to play through it and was down to .240 by the time he finally hung it up? I'm quite sure no one would be looking at Furcal the same way they are this offseason. To say that Penny can't perform any more after several very good seasons is, in my opinion, a big mistake.
Also, it's certainly not like the Dodgers couldn't use the starting pitching depth. Right now, your starting rotation consists of Chad Billingsley, Hiroki Kuroda, and Clayton Kershaw, and all three come with their own questions of age and workload. With Derek Lowe and Greg Maddux likely departing, Jason Schmidt an eternal unknown, and James McDonald an untested rookie, you don't think you could use a guy who as recently as last year, I was looking into whether or not he was having the best non-Koufax LA Dodger starting pitching season ever? Because if you don't think he's going to be able to go elsewhere and get more years and bigger paychecks than one year and $7.25m (forget the $2m buyout, he gets it regardless), you're absolutely wrong – assuming doctors clear his arm. Meanwhile, the Dodgers could be short on starters and paying much more than that for a lesser pitcher.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Macan Clasico is the second wine in the Bordeaux sense, even though the name might be rather confusing and some people might think this is the superior cuvee. It's clearly a more accessible wine than its sibling, and that's intentional. Bright ruby-colored, with some red fruit and lactic..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Dark ruby in color, showing beautiful aromas of crushed berries, with hints of sultana, raisin and spices. Full-bodied, with a superrich, powerful palate. This has layers of fruit and a fabulous finish. Decadent and delicious."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Brilliant ruby-red. Smoky, spice-accented scents of blueberry, boysenberry and smoky Indian spices. Lush and creamy in texture, offering deeply pitched black and blue fruit flavors brightened by zesty minerality. The spicy note comes back on the finish, which is supple, broad and impressively..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "... with the 2009 Barolo Cannubi, you get the finesse and elegance of one of the world's most stunning vineyard sites with the added personality of the producer. There's elegance here and a tight, streamlined feel that points towards longevity and sophistication. This is a spectacular wine..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Barolo Vigneto Garetti comes from the lowest part of the vineyard. It shows great power and density with fleshy fruit, dried cherry and prune. The mouthfeel is round and dense, supported amply by the firm tannins at the back."
Cellar/Tasting Notes Invictus Reserve is the Big Brother of our popular Invictus label. Concentrated and robust, it's a wine of great finesse and class.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes comes from parcels planted in 1905 and 1938. ...its deep ruby/purple hue is followed by sweet aromas of black raspberries, blackberries, tar, licorice, truffles and graphite.

Cellar/Tasting Notes A sexy blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the robust 2007 Monbousquet displays lots of toasty oak intermixed with sweet kirsch, blacker fruits, and spice box.

Looking for a romantic little table for two? Right this way. The warm, upscale atmosphere at Le Bistro offers a menu of French Mediterranean fare including the classics like Foie Gras and Surf and Turf. Exceptional value, worth the price.
They do charge you an additional price of $15 per person, but it is worth every bit of it. We ate 2 lb lobster tails, escargo, chocolate fondue, great wine! This was my favorite place to eat.

Smoke-Free Committee
SAN ANGELO, Texas — Challenges may arise, but a citywide smoke-ban ordinance — bars included — will be on the ballot in November.
At a meeting Thursday evening, committee members of Smoke-Free San Angelo — the group that submitted the ordinance petition to the city this year — voted to reject an amended version of the ordinance approved by the City Council at its last meeting. Along with several minor changes, that version of the ordinance exempted adult-only bars from the ban. City staff recommended a version that included bars in the ban, but the council voted to amend the ordinance to exempt them.
Smoke-Free representatives, who met with city staff at least once before the council vote, said the group was open to negotiations but would not accept an ordinance that exempted bars because it supports protecting all people from the risks associated with exposure to secondhand smoke.
Several committee members, including an oncologist and respiratory therapist, said they could not accept the bar exemption because of the health risks it presents to employees and the general public.
"It's for everybody, and we've got to be proactive in creating a healthy environment," said committee member Marilynn Golightly after the meeting.
Committee member Bernay Sheffield, co-owner of Zenter's Daughter and past president of the San Angelo Restaurant Association, said another reason the committee rejected the city's version of the ordinance is because a partial ban would be unfair to businesses.
"We want an equal playing field for businesses," he said, adding that a partial ban would create "unfair competition" between bars and restaurants.
If passed in November, the group's version of the ordinance would place a smoke ban in all public places, including bars, restaurants and outdoor sports arenas. More than 4,500 people signed the group's petition supporting that version of the ordinance.
City Charter guidelines allow ordinance petition groups to bypass the council decision and request the original version of the ordinance be put to a vote. It gives petition groups several weeks from the council vote to send a request to the city clerk asking that its preferred version of the ordinance be placed on the ballot.
The City Council has the power to pass its own ordinance but has said it wants to leave the decision up to voters. However, City Councilman Paul Alexander said if the original version passes, the council will likely amend it to exempt all adult-only bars or the smaller bars where smoking is often "part of the culture" — or it will request the city version be put on the ballot as a separate item.
"Amending it is definitely on the table," Alexander said. But he added that putting the city's version on the ballot is the most likely thing to happen.
However, that would mean that both versions of the ordinance could pass. If that happens, both ordinances would be null, said City Clerk Alicia Ramirez.
"You can't pass some things that contradict each other. There's no way to enforce it because it's either yes or no," she said.
In that case, Alexander said the council would likely approve whichever version got the most votes.
Ramirez said the council would have to make some amendments if the original version passes either way because of certain wording problems with the original ordinance, such as its reference to a non-existent "city commission" rather than the City Council.
"If it's presented as written, there's a lot of verbiage ... we definitely would have to make corrections on," Ramirez said.
As far as non-necessary amendments, Ramirez said "that's a council question, that's not a city question."
When asked about the possibility of the council significantly amending the ordinance if it's passed, Smoke-Free members said it would be disrespectful to alter a voter-approved ordinance.
"It doesn't really make sense that they would threaten to overturn the will of the voters," said committee member Gary Bunker.
Alexander said he wouldn't see it as disrespectful because he thinks the council will communicate with voters before the election to let them know to expect amendments. That way voters would knowingly vote for an ordinance they expect to be amended. Alternately, they will have another, less-strict option to choose from if the city puts its version on the ballot.
"Not everybody completely understands what they're voting on anyway," Alexander said.
City Councilman Kendall Hirschfeld said he can't say how the council will decide to respond, but that putting the city's version of the ordinance on the ballot "is an option."
"Nothing is off the table," said Hirschfeld, who has expressed personal opposition to the ban and hopes that Smoke-Free would accept the city's version.
"The way I perceive it is that those who were on the right side don't like it, those who are on the left side don't like it, and that means it must be middle ground because no one really likes it. That's part of our job is to find middle ground, (something) that everyone can at least tolerate."

Lee Dorman, bass guitarist for the 1960s psychedelic rock band Iron Butterfly, died at age 70 on Dec. 21, 2012.
He was found dead in his car near his home in the Southern California town of Laguna Niguel. Coroner's officials said he died of natural causes, adding that he was under the care of a doctor and may have been on his way to an appointment before he passed away, the Associated Press reported.
Dorman was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1942. He moved to California in the 1960s. He then joined the San Diego-based band Iron Butterfly, which rose to fame in the later part of the decade with singles such as "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida -- the group's biggest hit, 'Soul Experience" and 'Easy Rider.' The band, including Dorman, had been performing regularly as recently as May 2012.

Georgia Southern University recently recognized 86 students for excellence in academics on the 2010 Summer Semester President's List.

"Gutter olitics" I
The 1954 Con0 ressional and ~tate elections are over and
the of.fic'ial returns are in . The election was unusual in many
respects, tile majorities in both houses of Congress fell short
of predictions , there were upsets and disappointments , and analysts
are still trying to figure out if there was a trend and 1at kind,
pro-Democratic , anti-Eisen~o~er, anti-Republican or ~as it merely
an express..~.on of the unpredictable independent voter •
. ithout regard to the victJries and defeats, the American
public has .vitnessed durin:; the 1954 campaign one of the worst
exhibitions of cheap and shoddy politics in our history. The
quality of this campaifn sank to the lo.est possible levels .
The New York Times sa. the situation perfectly when it protested
"the violation of decency , honesty and fair play" committed by
some of the leaders and candidates during the ca~paign .
:lections, as a rul£ , are easily forgotten , put aside for
another two years. But the 1954 election cannot be so easily
forgotten . The Democratic Party , a partner in our American twoparty
system r~s been labeled by its opposition as being traitors,
and warmonc:.ers .. ho plunge the country into r1ar to achieve prosperity
. The citizens of our great nations should not rest until
these falsehoods and those \:!10 made these accusations are properly
The 1954 campaibn deteriorated into what has been aptly
labeled "gutter politics . " It is unfortunate that a carnpaiun
cannot be conducted by the t.o great American parties on the
issues , instead of reso~tin. to name-calling and smear .

If this trend in political campaigning is not halted t he
public officials who emerge out of such a system dill inevitablbe
poorly qualified by educatior:, experience, conviction and
char acter . They will be tools of pressure gr oups , interested only
in t heir o~m material gain and grir .. din~ their ovm ,tJri vate ax .
rtGutter politics" is discouraging the able , honest and intelligent
men from comin into the service OL the Federal and
State Governments . Public office involves a great deal of selfsacrifice
and rio.icule , but cert inly there must be a linli t .
The caW.paign iihich is nm being reconstructed began .. ith
pled0 es of gair play , out soon campaignin& on the issues proved
ineffective in turnin£ the tide a "'ainst the Democratic candidates
in key states so in a moment of desper~tion the Republ: can Party
leaders resorted to t he deliberate smear . These smear t actics
were not limited to individual candidates but were aimed at the
Democratic Party as an organization .
No one blames candidates for public office for ' "anting to
win by pointing out the mistakes and votin~ record of thetr
opponents, but no candidat e or leader can be excused or forgiven
for the tactics used by Vice President Nixon and his fellow
party leaders.
Nixon campaigned throughout the nation labelinG the Democratic
Party as socialistic , l ~ ft-wing , soft on Communism. Nixon and
his associates have drat.>ged politics to it.s lo .. est ebb .
The Vice President, in his nation-. .;.de speaking tour , d'.-Ielled
almost entirely on Communism, subversion, and scandal in past

Democratic dministrations. He dHelt upon the "left-wing clique"
of the Democratic Party, al•ays forgetting that it .:as the
Democrats in Congress who originated and fou ht for legislation
outlawing the Communist Party at the end of the second session
of the g3rd Congress.
On one occasion, Nixon cited 12 cases from the fi es of the
Eisenhower security program to support his statement that tha
Truman program "covered up and cleared the Communists and the
security risks' and t'.e Eisen 10 .er program "clean up and fired
them." He did not na e the 0 overnment e ployees involved but
referred to t em simply as "Case 1" on up to "C~se 12" and
employee A, B, C, etc . T e actual names would have added much
to these accusa io~ hy were they not released . It simply is
another case of tne numbers game , :ith little if anything to
back them up . If these files are open f or political purposes
they should be open for all people to examine . The people have
a right to know the names and correct statistics of the number of
Communists and security risks that ast Democratic administrations
AI/' covered(and ho~ many came in under the present Administration .
Numbers make an interesting story, but they can be distorted ~ith
little effort .
t•:r . Nixon has attacked the Truman regime numerous times for
continuing "a tar (in Korea) our men were not allo\';ed to .. in . "
American people were concerned that "there was no leadership to
brin it (the ;ar) to an end, no leadership to blunt the threat

of ~ommunist aggression." He does not say that the course of
action taken by the Republican Administration in endinc;; the
vmr in Korea was more or less a continuation of the procram set
up under fresident Truman . The Republicans did not end the war,
they merely completed ne~otiations.
In the ~. yomin0 senatorial race, Senabor Josez-~h C. 0 ' l'tahon~y
v.ras accused by his ipponent of having been a foreign agent , Agent
783 . It was implied that the Senator t.vas in pay of some foreign
po1t1er hostile to our country or that he was guilty of somethin,;
sinister. They stopped there , but further investigation shov;s
that there were many prominent men in the no.tion , of both pclit.ical
parties , \':ho had at. some time during tl.eir career cor.1e under t .is
category in their practice of la .. • This ~i just one of the many
illustrations of the deliberate smears used a ga~nst Democratic
candidates for office . The facts \'<'ere deliberntly altered to suit
the needs of tl1e party .
In his speech at Cheyenne, ~yoming n October 23 Nixon said
" .. hy is the Communist party of the United States fi6hting so desperately
and openly for tue defeat of hepuolican candidates for
the house and Senate, and for the election of an anti-Eisenhower
"Part of the reason can be found in the fact that the cand-dates
running on the Democratic tikket in the key sta tes are almost
without exception members of the Democratic party's)kf' t-wing
clique '.Nhich nas been so blind to the Communist conspiracy and
has tolerated it in the United S·tates . "
Mike Mansfield Papers, Series 21, Box 51, Folder 7, Mansfield Library, University of Montana
Nixon declared in a speccb in Butte, .or tana on October 22
that he >"'as in possession of a copy of "secret memorandum" sent
in October 1953, to California leaders of the Communist party
whiclJ. directed them to " chieve unity behind single candidates

He rr.ay as well have said 't .at the Communist Party \ias affiliated

making cooperation i~possible in matters of importance when one
party falsely accuses the other of treason, irresponsibility and
In the state of Montana political propa;anda issued in the
campai6n reacted the most deplorable state that I have witnessed
in all the years that I have taken part in staLe and national
politics .
Republican sponsored advertisements accused the Democrats
of allowinG Communists in high places, but refused to give the
names and refused to discuss the circumstances . They take credit
for setting up a r~tgid program 1.,0 wipe out Communist spies in
r,overnoent . It 1.ms the Democrats ~tho surpt:!ised the Administr'1tion
and pressed for andachieved legislation outlavring the Communist
Party .
The Republicans told MontBnans through various mediums of
communicQtion that they had restored honesty , integrity and
e!ficiancy to government . They failed to explain the Dixon-Yates
deal , the split in their own party ranks and the low morale that
is so evident in cur govern~ent agencies .

slavery by the Democratic farm pro~ram and the Brannan ~lan . ~e

They accused Senat>or James Murray and l.ds associates, labeled
as left-wineers, of tryin[ to destroy the people's water rights
and steal tleir "Water with AVA and CVA . The Republicans were not
content to debate the merits of private versus public poder, th~y
introduced false insinuations.
Perhaps one of the most deplorable ~dvertise8ents carried
in Montana newspapers was an ad sponsored by a Republican candidate
for State Senator readin_ as follows: "Fathers - ~~others
and S eethearts -- The claimed prosperity of the Democrats was
pre nant with the blood of the battlefield , alarms , crisis ,
controls , regimentation, netotism and graft . " Is it possible
the American politics has stooped to such a loh level . The 1954
campaign did just that .
The detioration of American political life in the campaigns
of recent years is disgracer 1 , there must oe a solution to the
reckless use of :::.oney and \tild chargets Wi~ich have so characterized
the campaigns of the past decade .
Per!.aps the solution to the \-,hole problem lies within the
conscience of the American people . If we continue to condone
such tactics , ~here -vrill eventually be only the unscrupulous
in control of the destinies of the nation and the end of representatife
self-government in the tradition of the Founding Fathers.
The sort of campaign e witnessed is um:orthy of the high
offices in our Government. At least they should be above "gutter
politics . tr Unless the deterioration of our political system is not
averted, it will not be the Communists and foreic,n agents that vie
:>Jill have to worry about, it will be those within who will dep.cive
the Americans of their liberties .
