Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library Digital Collections
Mr. MANSFIELD. Mr. President, I am
dellghLed that the distinguished Senator
from Arizona has once again brought
up the copper strike, which has now been
plaguing five Western States, primarily,
for 8 months.
It is my understanding that while I
was in Salt Lake City last Wednesday,
there was a meeting at the White House
attended by Governors from copper-producing
States in the Rocky Mountains
and Members of the House and Senate
from those States.
Mr. FANNIN. The Senator Is correct.
Mr. MANSFIELD. It is my further
understanding that at that time the
President indicated a deep personal interest
in the copper strike and suggested
that the Governors and the Members of
the House and Senate contact both the
companies and the unions to see if something
could not be done to get them both
down to hard day-to-day negotiations.
Mr. FANNIN. The Senator Is correct.
The President did request the Governors
and the Members of Congress to help to
bring this copper strike to a close.
I am sorry that the distinguished majority
leader did not have the opportunity
to be there. I know he would have
certainly contributed gr~tly to that
Mr. MANSFIELD. I am sure the Governors
and my colleagues in .(ll.e House
and Senate were aware of my feelings in
this matter. I was in Salt Lake City that
day, and being in the heart of the copper
country I heard a great deal about copper.
I was in touch with the White House
later that evening so I was able to receive
a fairly verbatim report of , what
As a result of that conference I know
that the Senator and his colleague from
Arizona fMr. HAYDEN], the dean of this
body, and others have sent telegrams and
established contact with the companies
and the unions 1n an attempt to get them
My junior colleague from Montana
[Mr. METCALF] and I did the same thing.
We contacted the Anaconda Co. and the
I have before me an answer from
Joseph P. Molony, chairman of the Nonferrous
Strike Coordinating Committee,
of the Steel Workers Union. The telegram
is in answer to the telegram sent
by Senator METCALF and me. The telegram
from Mr. Molony reads as follows:
The unions lnvolve\f ln the copper strike,
In a meet111g In Denver, Colo., have Jointly
and care!ully considered your telegram of
February 29. We want nothing more and
nothing Jess than a fair settlement of our
strikes at all locations of each company
Involved. We are prepared to resume negotiations
with each company without any
preconditions. I! the companies are wUling
to negotiate without any preconditions,
hopefully we can get on with collective bar-gaining
ond a settlement or the strike. Cc
Mike Mansfield. cc Lee Metca lf.
JOSFPll 'P MOLONY,
Chairman, Noufrronts Strike Coordtnatmg
We also received a tele!(ram from C.
Jay Parkinson. president of the Anaconda
Co., In response to our joint telegram
to him, and his telegram reads as
I am generally In agreemen~ wl~h your
telegram and am pleased to advise you that
each company negotlntlng team In the bargaining
units on strike ha YC been alerted
and will be ready to receive the negoUatlng
group from the appropriate unions on Monday
morning, March 4. at 10:00 a.m. at the
respective company omces to start negotiations
from the beginning without any preconditions
or concPsslons and that all differences
whether economic or otherwise that
are properly negotiable will be discussed and
deliberated, and I hope settled. You will
notice I have used your phrasing In the foregoing
to avoid any misunderstanding.
Kindest personal regards.
President, The Anaconda Co.
I also have a copy of a telegram sent
by Mr. Molony of the Steel Workers to
Mr. Simpkins, Chief of the Mediation and
Conciliation Service of the Department
of Labor. The telegram reads as follows:
The unions Involved In the Copper Strike
have received a number of telegrams from
members of Congress urging Immediate resumption
of collective bargaining with each
company oo achieve a settlement of the
strike The unions are prepared to resume
collective bargaining with each company
without pre-conditions. We urge that you
arrange bargaining meetings with each company
in New York City at any time next week
starting March 6. Unions wlll have the necessary
personnel present.
(Signed) MOLONY.
Mr. President, this is a slight sign of
progress. We will only know that the
unions and companies mean business
when they meet on either March 4 or
March 6, and that is too long a time to
wait. in my judgment, to slt down around
the table to try to work out dif!erences
that keep them apart at the present time.
The strike itself has had a deadening
effect on the five Western copper-producing
States and has crippled their
economies drastically. It has worsened
the Nation's balance-of-payments deficit,
and it has driven up the cost of many
articles because of the high cost we pay
for copper at the present time.
All in all, the strike has had a very
debilitating effect, not only on the individuals
concerned but on the economies
in general of the States of Montana,
Utar, Nevada, Arizona. and New Mexico.
I 1 Ppeat that the time for these folks
to g t together is long overdue and I
would hope they would get away from
this ballyragging which has been going
on for so long, and that they would get
down to negotiations-and I refer to both
officials of the unions and the companies-
to see what they can do to bring
about some alleviation of the terrible
economic plight which faces the miners
and the smeltermen throughout the
Western States.
I wish they would realize how much
copper means in our economies. In cities
like Butte and Anaconda ti1crc is no other
commodity on wh1ch !)('OPle can turn
for a livelihood. 1t is Loo bad they must
depend on one product for their livelihood.
but there Is no othf'r bu.~iness to
which they can tmn in which they can
find work from which they can make a
I join all of my coll eagues from the
Rock Mountain SLates, as well as those
from the fabricating States, in urging
that as soon as possible the unions and
the companies get together and really
get down to bedrock In this matter of
Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent
to have printed in the RECORD an
editorial entitled "Copper Boycott,"
which was published in the New York
Times on yesterday.
There being r.o objection, the editorial
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
The unions Involved In the marathon copper
strike seem bent on compelling President
Johnson to do the thing they profess to want
least: obtain an eighty-day InJunction under
the national emergency provisions CJ! the
Taft-Hartley Act.
The Administration provided both the
unions and the Big Four copper companies
with an honorable basis for ending the confilet
over companywlde bargaining that has
cut off the great bulk or American mining
for more than seven months. The unions refused
even to test the peace plan.
Then the Interno.t.lonal Longshoremen's
Association clamped a. short-lived boycott on
copper inlports from South America and
Africa.. These Imports have kept military
suppliers and other copper-dependent industries

the long tie-up. The !.L.A., warned by Its
lawyers of possible damage suits. decided to
lift Its embargo pending a fuller exploration
of all the legal aspects. But now the maritime
unions have, In effect, called on the strikers
to set up select! ve picket lines as a means of
blocking off everything except defense shipments.
"Not one pound of copper will move."
they say. Several fabricating plants already
have been obliged to shut down !or lack of
metal, and the Idleness will undoubtedly
spread swiftly.
Even without the deadening effect of these
latest developments, tile strike has crippled

mining states, worsened the nation's balance-
of-paymenl'ts deficit by several hundred
mllllon dollars and driven up the cost
of weapons !or Vietnam by forcing rellance
on high-priced foreign copper.
How much worse must the situation become
before the President considers It ·a
national emergency?
Mr. FANNIN. I wish to take this opportunity
to commend our majority leader
for the manner in which he has pushed
for a settlement of the strike.
At this time I should like to inform
my colleagues, and to advise the majority

Tale of the tape
Week 12: New England Patriots At New York Jets
|Tom Brady has put together another scintillating season. He has a plethora of weapons to choose from and he has also been unfailingly accurate and alert. Brady finds the open receiver because he reads defenses so well. He is never overwhelmed by the situation and he makes sure to deliver the ball with velocity and accuracy. That's why he's a consistent winner
|It's been a disastrous season for Mark Sanchez. The Jets were hoping that Sanchez would make progress this season and give them a credible passing game, but he has gone the other way and the Jets can't compete when they get behind by more than a touchdown. The Jets don't have the supporting personnel to help Sanchez out very often.
|The Pats have been solid on the ground this season thanks to outstanding work by the offensive line and the surprising ability of Stevan Ridley. He is not the fastest or quickest runner, but he finishes his runs and follows his blocks. Wide receiver Wes Welker can always get open and make plays when he is healthy. Julian Edelman will probably take on a bigger role since tight end Rob Gronkowski (broken arm) is out.
|The Jets have few players who are capable of providing explosive plays. Head coach Rex Ryan is not under the illusion that Shonn Greene is going to break long runs, but he needs the running back to wear down the defense. The Jets receivers are ordinary, but Jeremy Kerley and Chaz Schillens will try to take advantage of the soft New England secondary.
|The Patriots know they can't get any worse at pass defense and the acquisition of talented Aqib Talib could bring them some improvement. If the Patriots have any hope of succeeding in the postseason, they have to find a way to slow down the passing game. Linebackers Jerod Mayo and Brandon Spikes are hard hitters and good tacklers and New England is solid against the run.
|The Jets have lost the physical battle on several occasions this season. That's got to be a shock to Ryan, who prides himself on having a punishing defense. Ryan is not disappointed with the play of linebacker David Harris, who is almost always in the right position and one of the best tacklers in the league. Strong safety LaRon Landry has been an effective tackler and excellent in coverage.
|Stephen Gostkowski is consistent and determined. After missing an early-season game-winning attempt vs. Arizona, he looks like a confident and focused kicker. The Patriots punt and kickoff teams have gotten the better of their opponents all season and Devin McCourty is a threat on kickoff returns.
|Special Teams
|Fiery Mike Westhoff has not been happy with the Jets' special teams play, but overall coverage has not been bad. That's not good enough for Westhoff, who will retire at the end of the season. Kerley and Joe McKnight have both had returns for touchdowns. Placekicker Nick Folk has been sharp this season.
The winner is

More than 100 volunteers, mostly wearing bright yellow T-shirts and orange mesh vests, took to boats or foot to pick up trash along Alabama 77 and in the waterways of the Coosa River in Ohatchee as part of Alabama Power's Renew Our Rivers project.
Saturday's cleanup event, organized by the Calhoun County Chamber of Commerce and the Neely Henry Lake Association, marked the first time Renew Our Rivers cleaned up Calhoun County's portion of the lake. Mike Clelland, an Alabama Power employee helping out Saturday, said since 1999, Renew Our Rivers has had more than 50,000 volunteers and picked up more than 12 million pounds of trash, including 10 million in the state of Alabama.
The program extends into four states, but it got its start just upstream in Etowah County.
"It started right here on the Coosa River," Clelland said. "In fact it was originally called Renew the Coosa before it became a statewide thing."
Volunteers in Etowah County have made cleaning up Neely Henry Lake an annual project, but until Saturday, the southern half of the reservoir in Calhoun County had been largely ignored.
"What happened is they have a Keep Etowah Beautiful program and got a lot of help and coordination from the Etowah County Sheriff's Office, so they were kind of limited to Etowah County," said Kelly Stephens, the president of the Neely Henry Lake Association. "But we saw a need to do something here in Calhoun County too."
Volunteers turned out in force for Calhoun County's first Neely Henry Lake cleanup. Although the Chamber planned for 150 volunteers, more than 160 registered, including around 60 students from various clubs at Ohatchee High School.
"I've been to a lot of these and sometimes you get maybe 10 people," Clelland said. "And 10 people can get a lot done, but this is a fantastic turnout for a first time."
Judging how quickly volunteers were filling up trash bags, the river cleanup could use all the help it can get.
Andy Gilmore, a volunteer from Moody, said he'd been only working for 15 minutes picking up trash on Alabama 77 when he had to go get a new trash bag.
"It's just about not caring, being lazy," said Gilmore explaining how waterways become a target for litter. "People just aren't educated on conservation and what it does to the environment."
Amy Benson, a volunteer of Ragland, said she couldn't believe what she found while picking up trash from the banks of the river.
"I mean, you can just see everything they leave here," Benson said, pointing out a pile of water bottles. "We picked out a breakfast plate from Jack's. Why wouldn't you just eat that at the restaurant?"
Kathy Harvey, one of the program coordinators with the Chamber of Commerce, said she was happy to see so many high school-aged and younger volunteers come out Saturday.
"We've been talking about how you get people to stop throwing out their trash along the roads," Harvey said. "We really want to start educating students in school."
The chamber wants to make cleaning up the areas around Neely Henry Lake an annual event, but Harvey said she'd like to make the project even bigger.
"I'd like to see a countywide cleanup day," Harvey said. "You can come to the water and clean up, or clean up your own yard, or the highway. Just get everybody involved."

text: Watersheds Celebrate 50 Years Today marks the 50th anniversary of the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Program that has helped protect lives and property and improve natural resources. Compiled by staff Published on: Aug 4, 2004 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Agriculture Deputy Under Secretary for Natural Resources and Environment Mack Gray today hailed the 50th Anniversary of the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Program that has helped protect lives and property and improve natural resources. "Protecting lives and property and improving our natural resources within our nation's watersheds is a major priority for the Bush administration," Gray says during an event to celebrate the Anniversary in Newton, Kansas. "Every citizen in this country lives in a watershed. They are nature's natural boundaries. NRCS has made much progress in reducing damages caused by flooding, sedimentation and erosion in watersheds nationwide." NRCS Chief Bruce Knight also marked the event and toured the Badger Creek Watershed Project in Central Iowa. Several of the nation's governors have marked the program's 50th anniversary with proclamations, including Iowa, Hawaii, Kansas, Oklahoma and Wisconsin. About $14 billion in federal, state and local funds have been invested in these projects since the program was created in 1954. Through this program, USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) provides technical and financial assistance to project sponsors, such as local conservation districts, counties, cities and tribes, and for watershed projects. Some consist of flood control dams built on tributaries to larger streams or rivers, while others consist of land and water conservation practices. NRCS has assisted watershed sponsors to construct more than 11,000 flood control dams in 1,500 watersheds in 47 states. These projects are providing an estimated $1.7 billion annually in reduced flooding and erosion damages, recreation, water supplies and wildlife habitat. Most of these dams were originally designed to protect agricultural areas from flooding. As population increased, homes and businesses were built where crops once grew. Now the dams protect people, businesses, and the infrastructure of these communities. Local communities benefit from more than 1,500 watershed projects nationwide. Economic, social and environmental benefits from this program have exceeded the dollars spent many times. Benefits include cost reductions of maintaining roads and bridges; reductions in erosion, contributing to greater productivity of cropland and grazing lands; and reductions in damages from frequent flooding. Citizens can enjoy increased recreational opportunities from projects where wetlands are enhanced and water-based recreational facilities are constructed.

A plan for a Scenic Byway in Forest County is just one step away from becoming a reality.
The Wolf River Heritage Corridor would follow Highway 55, north from Langlade to Nelma near Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
The more than one hundred mile route bisects the Mole Lake Sokaogon Chippewa Community. It also includes a loop near Three Lakes.
Forest County Economic Development Director Jim Schuessler says getting the scenic byway designation is a rigorous process.
The mixed economic news reflects on figures given to the Oneida county board on delinquent taxes and foreclosures.
County Treasurer Kris Osterman said the number of tax delinquencies last year were down which usually shows people have enough money to pay their taxes. But other parts of her report showed tough times...
"....we had the same foreclosures this year as we had last year. We finished foreclosing on 24 properties which is a record ever since I've been here, we've never had that many properties...."
As money gets tighter at the local level, governments are wrestling with balancing their budgets. The Oneida County Board passed a 2014 budget that saw an unexpected windfall give some space to reduce budget cuts.
The Rhinelander city council last night fixed a loophole regarding the mayor's pay. It got a little heated.
The mayor gets a thousand dollars a month, plus paid for committee meetings. But a loophole in the pay regimen found the mayor runs the city council meetings, but doesn't get paid for them.
Three of eight councilmembers voted not to allow the extra pay including Alex Young, saying other employees have been asked to sacrifice...
A bill changing the approval process for high capacity wells has passed a Senate committee. Some environmental groups are up in arms.
The bill limits the DNR's powers in reviewing commercial wells that pump over 100,000 gallons per day. For example a property with a well on it could be sold without having to get a new well permit. And applications not acted upon within 65 days would get approved by default.
Rhinelander High School is getting a grant to fund a career training program.
AT&T is donating $30,000 to fund the Jobs for America's Graduates – or JAG—program.
Regional JAG coordinator Sandy Sobek Leslie says it's a national career development program, aimed especially at students who are at risk for not graduating.
"We try to integrate right into the school day, so the kids are in our classrooms as part of their curriculum that they're already involved in. So we find our way into homerooms, or advisories."
The DNR is reminding people to re-commit to recycling, and seek out more ways to re-use materials. Friday is America Recycles Day nationwide.
It's a day that aims to call attention to how recycling is good for the environment and good for the economy.
DNR recycling spokesperson Elisabeth Olson says around 100 million dollars of re-usable materials goes into landfills every year.
"So often it's your basic materials. We're still seeing plastics, aluminum, paper, steel. These types of things, they're going into our landfills."
On Veterans Day, we remember the service of veterans from many wars.
Walter Wendt served six and a half years in the Navy in World War II. He was onboard the ship the Helena when it was hit by a torpedo during the attack on Pearl Harbor. WXPR's Natalie Jablonski talked with 95-year-old Wendt at his neighbor's home in McNaughton, Wisconsin.
It's Veterans Day, the day set aside to honor all who have served our country in the military.
A truce was declared on November 11, 1918 which halted World War I hostilities. The next year, President Wilson declared November 11 as "Armistice Day" to remember the Great War. After Congress officially recognized the day as a holiday in 1938, it was renamed "Veterans Day" in 1954 to bring in the veterans from World War II and Korea.
Vilas County Veterans Service Officer Michael Biszak says the sacrifices veterans endure should be remembered...
Sharp pencils have produced a surplus from an initial budget deficit in Three Lakes.
Town chair Stella Westfall said in the early work they were about $143,000 dollars over budget. But she says staff and department heads found a way to turn that around...
"...they just did a great job and made recommendations to decrease our expenses. The department heads really tried to be efficient...bottom line is instead of this $143,000 deficit, we ended up with a $34,000 surplus...."

MLB insider: Arizona Diamondbacks discussed Upton for Headley swap
The Arizona Diamondbacks are still listening to offers for right-fielder Justin Upton.
According to FOXSports.com writer Ken Rosenthal, the D-backs and Padres were talking about an Upton for Chase Headley swap but those discussions have not advanced.
Latest on Justin Upton. #DBacks-#Padres talked Upton-for-Headley (failed to progress), #Rangers want to offer Olt-plus. msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/ariz�— Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) January 5, 2013
Rosenthal reported the two teams were talking about a potential trade involving both players since July.
The D-backs are still looking to find a suitor for Upton and have talked with others teams, including the Texas Rangers and Seattle Mariners. The Mariners are on Upton's no-trade list, which could complicate a deal with Seattle. The Atlanta Braves have also expressed strong interest in obtaining Upton.
Arizona is still entertaining offers for left-fielder Jason Kubel but with Upton's reasonable contract and high upside he could net a far larger package in return.
Headley hit .286 with 31 home runs and an NL-best 115 RBI. He finished fifth in the NL MVP voting in 2012.
Upton batted .280 with 17 longballs and and 67 RBI for the D-backs.

I think my next move would be to replace the fill valve.
I have an American Standard Toilet that is that same age as my house, about 18 years old. When the toilet refills the tank after a flush, the noise of the water going in is unbearably loud and to make matters worse, very slow. It can take a full 90 seconds to refill at full supply. I mean the sound is very loud, you can hear it across the house even with the bathroom door shut. I have lived in the house about six years and the issue is about the same as when I moved in. This half bath toilet is near the hearth room off a kitchen and is used by guests….and the wife says "fix the embarrassing toilet!" before the holiday guests arrive.
I think I hear two different noise pitches, with one coming from near the supply line and the other in the tank via the water filling. I have replaced the supply line and the supply line valve shut-off thinking they were clogged or something. I have bleed the lines throughout the house thinking it might be air in the line. No help. I can change the pitch of one of the noises by turning and playing with the supply line cut-off valve to reduce the amount of water coming in slightly, but that only slows the refill down and barley results in a less audible sound.
Is this a bad toilet,
too small of supply line (3/8),
bad fill valve
or god forbid a bigger whole house plumbing issue?
The other four toilets in the house are slow to refill, but not nearly as loud. My wife can deal with slow, but not the noise. Help.
Any suggestions?

I think my next move would be to replace the fill valve.
A toilet that old uses 5-6 gallons per flush. It might be time for a new one. But, for less than $10 or so, you can replace the fill valve. Normally, this is fairly quick and easy. The two more readily available valves are Fluidmaster 400A (?) or Korky Quietfill.
Are your pipes galvanized? That all in itself could be a problem since they rust from the inside out while dumping rust particles into the seals and clogging things up.

Important note - I'm not a pro
Retired Defense Industry Engineer; Schluter 2.5-day Workshop Completed 2013, 2014
The house has all copper piping until you get to the toilet's cutt-off valve. It is stainless steel and so is the rigid supply supply line to the toilet.
Hmm? Korky Quietfill, I wonder who supply's that.
I doubt it is stainless steel.
They are chrome plated brass and copper.
The 400A and Korky work very well. Use a braded stainless supply line and replace the stop also if you can, they make nice 1/4 turn stop valves now, no more turning tighter and tighter to stop the flow.

FWIW, the Korky Quietfill valves can be purchased at Lowe's. Highly recommend. They seem to be able to take quite a bit of grit & junk in the water before fouling. They are also very easy to take apart, clean, and if necessary, individual pieces of it can be replaced without having to throw out the whole valve. Seems to be a better design than the typical Fluidmaster ones.
Also, the Korky Quietfill is was Toto toilets ship with from the factory.

310: Commitment
Title text: Could be worse. The last guy in that situation fell for one of the transient trumpeting angels.
[edit] Explanation
In the first panel, Cueball proposes to a woman. While he does this, a narrator (most likely the man's inner voice) explains why he wants to marry her. He says that he realizes that there is no choir of trumpeting angels when you meet the right girl. And that he must overcome his fears and doubts to realize that the woman he's with is perfect for him, and that she is 'the one'.
In the second panel, they get married. And in the third panel, after they are married, Megan comes in saying 'Hi'. And then Cueball has the full 'love at first sight'-experience. He sees a choir of angels, and they are trumpeting and all. She is definitely the 'one' he was looking for all the time.
So he realizes that his theory he had when he got married, is false. And that his true love is standing in front of him, and is not the one he married. A difficult situation, he doesn't know how to react or what to do at all. And this is expressed by him just thinking in his head 'Well, shit.' (What now?).
The title text notes that the last guy who had a similar experience fell in love with one of the angels instead, not realising that it was the girl he just met that was the love of his life. Which is of course much worse, especially because the angels are transient, and the only way to see them again is by meeting the perfect 'girl' and he has just ignored her!
[edit] Transcript
- [Cueball proposing to a girl on his knee.]
- I understand now. There's no choir of angels when you meet the right person. It's about growing out of your fears to realize what you have is what you want.
- [Cueball and the woman getting married.]
- Cueball: I do.
- Girl: I do.
- [A cloud with trumpeting angels appears over Megan.]
- Megan: Hi.
- Well, shit.
This is my greatest fear. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 00:15, 6 May 2013 (UTC) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
- Totally agree --SergioCastanneda (talk) 21:48, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- In general I do not edit other posts but here was something broken. I am pretty sure this comic refers to the movie The Graduate feat. Dustin Hoffman. Hoffman became very popular after it was released AND the ending of that movie is very similar to this comic. I will add an incomplete tag for further investigations.--Dgbrt (talk) 19:05, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

It's really nice to see Coleen messing about with the rest of the housemates and her cheeky sense of humour coming out. It just shows how much negativity Julie brought to the house

My bum was Kemp going to speak to Harvey about it, that would be confrontation and Kemp works through suggesting things to people against his target. I hope Julian wins, he prejudges people a little quickly if he didn't do he'd have the world at his feet.
@ Glad to know it is a joke imagine going out on date with him and he starts to talk about how beautiful the stars are please all money and veneers nought more than that hence why he is single Bore.....ing.
Night all *crashes and burns*
@To be truthful I don't care but if anyone to win Ashley or Martin. All I can say is this has been one of the best forum. I have not laughed so much to myself I think my family thought I was loosing the plot to be truthful I gotore entertainment on here than watching the show. Suprised how passionate some people are to the show. Anyway one day left I really am going to miss the banter but I really do need to get a life this years BB & CBB has been good.

'Well, that was pretty uneventful for big bro, they just played on our emotions with the soppy music and endearing pleas to stay. I knew I was right Paps, and who do you want to win?
I thought you were male pappy... As in Popeye's dad pappy...
@ Deborah you assume right
Pappy, are you X or XY chromosome? Sorry for being a nosy arse but I assumed you're female and thought I should ask?
lmfao@Papster, oh how i love you. You say it how it is, no pussycat footing around x I think I want Julian to win.

Sergeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I missed you, it's been too quiet in here.
Harvey does quite a good Plymouthian accent...
Coleen is a proper stirrer. Julie just got caught up in wanting to be everyone's friend and I think she was prescient to Coleen's stirring....Deborah always tries to drop Bros lines into her comments - "Cat amongst the Pigeons"... Earlier she was telling me about her chocolatebox
This comment was removed by a moderator
I'm with you, @Deborah, on the Coleen thing. Coleen should have said to Kempy that she didn't mind at the breakfast table rather than go to Harvey later on and tell him.
I tell you what, it would be wild and hysterical if big brother sent ALL the contestants back in to mingle until the final, I bet that would cause mayhem as they'd all know what the others said except the finalists who'd be paranoid lol
Francessca, I hope big brother will set a few cats amongst the pigeons. The funs gone for me because they can all be themselves now and team up. Big brother no longer plays them against each other and they have no need to influence each other against the other. So all the psycho analysis I love has gone, along with the second guessing what all their motives are. They can just relax and enjoy it now. Like you said, we never know, big brother may pull some drama off tonight but I doubt it *pouts*
I am glad and upset that Julie left. Sad because now it may be boring, but then again you never know what might happen tonight? Happy because I didn't like her from the start she is so playing the game, talking behind peoples backs, then saying, 'Oh, I don't know what i'd do without you!' I mean wise up for yourself! Near cried yesterday because of Ashley crying, aww Love you! Ashley to win! x
No, you just saw Coleen stab Martin in the back for standing up for her by grassing to Ashley and causing them to have a confrontation. Back biting with Julie but never saying it to her. Backing the girls one minute, then the boys the next. Back stabbing Julian. Wait until the boys hear what she had to say after the show. Always either cying or looking all lost and needy to pity troll in between. Sorry I dont like Coleen. I think she's a snake in the grass. But that's just my opinion, each to their own.
Coleen Is Great, kind loving person, the only game player is julie, But That Is My Opinion. You dont see coleen dragging people into toliets to get them to nominate certain people! What julie did i think they should of punished her even more than they did.. But Then Again Thats My Opinion.
I eat my words on the Prince, just caught up with BOTTTS and I was so wrong. If the prince is being honest, I respect him for standing up to Julie, who I adored, and for saying he wouldn't trust Danica past a dinner date, which I applaud. Question is,, having been groomed to behave a certain way in public, I hope he's telling the truth, and not just after popularity.
All I can say is nobody on earth including casts on bits on the side are perfect so all those that have judged Danica or is judging her are hypocrites and need to take a hard look in the mirror cos they are not perfect either, probably done worse things like.....! :-)
I've got the giggles, I wonder if men or women out there will pay on her site to give her abuse... Danica is cunning enough to accept it, and folk out there will be mad enough to do it. If i were doing that, I'd rather listen to abuse than deal with the usual types of men that pay per view.
Danica was many things, but she wasn't ugly. Dang, I'm straight and I would consider it. The only issue I had with Danica was her behavior, not her looks. As for abuse,, I wouldn't wish nutjobs on her regardless to how she behaved. As for the player prince, like I said at the beginning, at most they'll exchange 'assets' then they'll move on. So should we, Danica left last week?
anyone notice how long faced and angry danica looked on the bits on the side yesterday most probably getting alot of abuse on the streets for her behavior!!!!hope lorenzo has enough sense to stay away from her he seems like a really nice guy!
New day, new dawn. It's going to be interesting to see how Julian behaves now that Julie is gone. Will he entertain and win, or wither away into the background? Ashley is a dark horse,, he has been all sweet and hasn't done much back biting, it could win fans around, especially the young lasses. Martins nice but boring, if he doesn't step his game up I can't see them voting him in. Harvey is postulating as ever, but I think he's irritated too many to win. Coleen's as dull as dishwater, I can't see her making it, although she may come out of herself now Julie is gone. Either way she'll need all the loose women votes she can muster. Her and the occasional table will be out next I think.
This comment was removed by a moderator
I cannot believe that Coleen is still in the BB House. She has played everyone...including Big Brother. She's a shit stirrer and a backstabber, and I hope her conscience bothers her about stirring all the shit up in the house about Julie. Julie was a WONDERFUL housmate!

Comments On Jun 28, 2013:I bought a set of Defcon gear during the 4th of July sale. Great buy on this gear, I definitely can't complain.
The collar is well done, an area that I complain about the most. It doesn't "choke" or hug my neck to high or tight, but it is snug and comfortable.
The "cuff-less" sleeves are absolutely the most comfortable I've owned, no elastic and don't seem to ride up your arm.
There is some venting, the panels under/around your arm pits and neck/shoulder area. Seems to be "just enough" venting when your body gets warmed up, but not enough to really cool you off.
simple graphics, I like that!
I wear large shirts and the fit is excellent, shoulders and sleeves are the right size, length is very good.
My ONLY complaint is that their is any venting at all. I purchased "vented" gear and this (for colder days) and I am a little disappointed about the venting, but I won't complain much since it's very limited as stated above.

Coal is not Kentucky's future
It seems every level of state government is endorsing coal mining. Gov. Steve Beshear and U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell have spoken out against federal regulations imposed on the coal industry by the Environmental Protection Agency. Local leaders attended a FACES of Coal press conference Friday in Elizabethtown. Again the theme was that the EPA is endangering Kentucky's future by requiring full compliance with federal law to obtain a permit to mine Appalachian coal. Here are the facts these coal advocates have avoided:

Terrorists launch attack on Israeli border (Second Coming Watch 233) - Family Videos
105 views
Released: November 24, 2012 By: Daniel Whyte III
Terrorists launch attack on Israeli border. According to The Associated Press, a shootout along the Israel-Egypt border on Friday, in which three Islamic militants and an Israeli soldier were killed, highlighted the growing threat posed by al-Qaida-inspired groups that have taken hold in the vast desert of the Sinai Peninsula. The militants were heavily armed and wearing explosive belts when they infiltrated into Israeli territory and opened fire on soldiers protecting a team of workers building a border fence meant to buffer against just such attacks.
Iran unveils a new air defense system. According to The Associated Press, Iran on Friday displayed a new, all-Iranian-made air defense system, saying it was designed to confront American warplanes in case of a U.S. attack on the country. The system was on show during a military parade in Tehran commemorating the start of the Iraq-Iran war 32 years ago. The semi-official Fars news agency said the Raad, or Thunder, is more advanced than its Russian predecessor and is designed to confront fighter jets, cruise missiles, smart bombs, helicopters and drones.

Threatened Birds in Hispaniola
National Zoo senior scientist Eugene Morton received an award of $37,850 to support his project Ecology and conservation of threatened avifauna in the Sierra de Bahorucos of the Dominican Republic, Hispaniola.
The following is based on his successful grant proposal.
The island of Hispaniola is an area of international priority for conservation science because of its unique biological diversity and the high degree of threat to the endemic flora and fauna.
The island has a particularly distinct avifauna with 6 endemic genera, and is one of the highest rated Endemic Bird Areas in the world (Stattersfield et al. 1998). Currently, 19 of the 32 endemic bird species are considered threatened (BirdLife International 2000) and very little data exist regarding the ecology and current status of the majority of these rare species.
The Sierra de Bahoruco mountain range (SBMR) in the southwestern Dominican Republic contains the island's largest area of intact native pine and broadleaf forest, and is the primary stronghold area for 15 of the 19 IUCN listed species. 3 species resident in the Sierra de Bahorucos are of special concern:
- Bay-breasted Cuckoo (Hyetornis rufigularis)
- Hispaniolan Parrot (Amazona ventralis)
- Hispaniolan Parakeet (Aratinga chloroptera)
The Cuckoo is currently listed as Endangered and may only now exist in two isolated sub-populations, the status of which is unknown. The Parrot and Parakeet were listed as Vulnerable by the IUCN in 2002, although the status of the Parakeet is believed to be far worse (Collar 1996). Agricultural conversion and charcoal production island-wide have destroyed most of the suitable habitat for these three species, while persecution as crop-pests and trapping for food and the pet trade are speculated to be seriously threatening their survival.
Very few field studies have been carried out on these three species and virtually nothing is known regarding their ecology and the current threats to their populations. No wild nest attempts have been documented for the Parakeet or Cuckoo, and only a few anecdotal descriptions of their life histories exist. Conservation of these species is constrained by this lack of even the most basic ecological data.
We propose to carry out scientific field research to determine the life-history strategies and ecological needs of these species, so that effective recommendations can be made for their conservation. For all three target species we will:
- describe the breeding and feeding ecology and determine nesting success and survival rates
- determine the current threats to the populations
- determine current distribution, abundance and habitat associations
In addition, during population surveys to determine abundance and distribution of the three target species, data will be collected on all endemic birds resident in the SBMR. This will represent the first scientific surveys of the majority of these poorly-known threatened species including the:
- White-winged Warbler Xenoligea montana (Vulnerable)
- Eastern Chat-tanager Calyptophilus frugivorus (Vulnerable)
- Western Chat-tanager C. tertius (Vulnerable)
- Golden Swallow Tachycineta euchrysea (Vulnerable)
- White-necked Crow Corvus leucognaphalus (Vulnerable)
- Grey-headed Quail-dove Geotrygon caniceps (Vulnerable)
- Hispaniolan Crossbill Loxia megaplaga (Endangered)
- La Selle Thrush Turdus swalesi (Endangered)

Sette Nyx Ti Rail Saddle
The new Sette Nyx saddle makes uncomfortable lightweight saddles a thing of the past. Rear relief groove and comfort centers ensure a smooth, comfortable ride.
This is one of the most comfortable saddles I have owned, but saddles are personal in fit. The only down side is that you do need to replace it every 2-3 years, but that is not unusual for most saddles.
For the price this scores high in all departments of saddle characteristics. And for that reason I have this saddle on my training bike which gets more miles than any of my other bikes. It is a tad heavier but more than a tad more comfortable than the lightest road racing saddles at a fraction of the cost.
I have been riding this saddle for a few seasons now and really couldn't be happier. As with any lightweight saddle, there was an initial adjustment, but it has held up well and you can't beat it for the price.
lasted 100s of miles and molds over time
There's no "butt break in" for this one, it just hurts!

|First Appearance
|Hero Time
Carl Nesmith, also known as Captain Nemesis and later known as Overlord, is a character introduced in Hero Time. Originally, he was a famous human super-hero, as well as a great American icon and Ben's idol, but in reality, he is just a greedy gloryhound and a fraud. After a jealous rivalry with Ben as a hero, Nemesis grew insane with jealousy and changed his name to Overlord before joining Will Harangue in his smear campaign against Ben.
Early LifeCaptain Nemesis has been active as a hero since a long time ago (According to him, before Ben was born). A famous superhero and a great American icon according to most characters, his long services made him rich and famous, having his own weapon-making company and comic book series. In reality, he's really a gloryhound and a fraud who stages all criminal activities he seemingly stopped in order to get fame and fortune, though his agent implied he was a true hero in the past. Unlike Ben, he is shown to be greatly estimated by the anchorman Will Harangue, who described him as a "true American hero."
Ben 10: Ultimate Alien
In Hero Time, Captain Nemesis organizes a fake kidnapping on Jennifer Nocturne in order to save her and come back on the first page of the news. However, the fake kidnapping was mostly stopped by Spidermonkey before Captain Nemesis arrived, causing Ben to get most of the credit. This, plus Jennifer kissing Ben in front of the media, caused Captain Nemesis to grow jealous of Ben, despite Ben's admiration for him. After a second attempt to get back credit was again unwillingly spoiled by Armodrillo, Captain Nemesis proposed a "friendly competition" between the two of them to see who was the best. Though he was able to win one test thanks to an Ultimatrix malfunction, he ended up being humiliated by Four Arms, ruining his image.
After his defeat, Captain Nemesis was jealous and rancorous toward Ben, and upgraded his armor in a dangerous way in order to get revenge on him. He then kidnapped Julie and intersects Jennifer's helicopter. He uses them to bring Ben to him for a rematch. After a fight with Ultimate Humungousaur, Captain Nemesis endangered Julie and Jennifer's lives to force Ben through a "no-win" situation game. Goop saved Julie, while Gwen and Kevin saved Jennifer. During the fight, Captain Nemesis expressed a disgust and disillusionment for having "wasted" his life saving pathetic souls like Ben, and renamed himself Overlord, stating that Captain Nemesis is dead. Water Hazard was able to defeat him. He is then arrested by the police.
In Catch a Falling Star, Nesmith escapes from federal prison with aid from Jennifer Nocturne and wanted revenge on Ben. Then with Jennifer Nocturne they go to a Motel were Jennifer dyed her hair black. Later, Nesmith confronts Ben and they have a hand to hand battle with Nesmith losing. He later goes to a veterinary named Dr. Pervis to get plastic surgery, but he ends up killing Dr. Pervis afterwards, and later on the road he kills a truck driver and leaves a letter to Ben stating that he's going to the Nemesis Corporation building.
At Nemesis Corporation, he wounds and kills some police officers. He reaches the elevator and inputs a code to a secret floor where he activates a bigger Power Armor but gets interrupted by Ben and Gwen. He then attacks them with his gauntlet, injuring Gwen in the progress. Ben then transforms into Eatle and defeats Nesmith, causing Jennifer Nocturne to wear the power armor. After his defeat, he surrenders and gives himself up to the police.
Ben 10: Omniverse
He will appear in The Vengers.
Powers and Abilities
Captain Nemesis had no powers by himself, instead he uses a powerful battlesuit. However, the armor was so complex that he needed his staff of technicians to put it on. He gains the following abilities when he wears the suit:
- Enhanced Strength: The armor enhances his strength to an unknown degree.
- Enhanced Durability: It provides him protection against damage.
- Jet Boosters: The suit can be equipped with jet boosters that are used for flight or increased speed.
- Projection of Energy Blasts: The gauntlets' palms can harness yellow energy for projection of blasts or for stronger punches. The beams are adjustable for narrow or destructive emission.
- Grappling Hook: A gauntlet has a hidden grappling hook launcher for restraining opponents.
After his upgrade in which he boosted the core, he displayed much greater strength, speed and durability, as well as projecting red energy blasts from his palms. However, as a side effect, the armor grew hotter each time he used it, and according to Kevin, the suit would have blown up and killed him if Water Hazard hadn't saved him from it.
Video Games
Ben 10 Ultimate Alien: Cosmic Destruction
Captain Nemesis appears on Ben's second Trip to Rome, where he reveals that he was the one spying on Ben and leaking battle footage of him to Will Harangue. Ben appeared to Captain Nemesis and he is angry at him that Ben once again one-upped him. When fighting Ben, Captain Nemesis powers himself up by using the piece of the Potis Altiare that Enoch used. After Ben defeats Captain Nemesis, Captain Nemesis collapses from exhaustion.
Console Strategy
Captain Nemesis serves as the mini-boss of the Colosseum level. He is a pretty easy opponent. Captain Nemesis attacks by firing lasers and melee attacks. While some of his attacks cannot be blocked, they are all avoidable. Overall, dodge his attacks and keep attacking until he is defeated. The easiest way to beat him is to turn into NRG, and continuously blast him with a radiation beam.
Mini Trivia
- As Captain Nemesis takes damage, pieces of his armor fall off.
Ben 10: Ultimate Alien
- Hero Time (first appearance)
- Catch a Falling Star
Ben 10: Omniverse
- The Vengers (first re-appearance)
- Carl has a strong resemblance to Adonis from Teen Titans, as well as similar facial features to that of Warp in the same show.
- Carl is voiced by Christopher McDonald, and the character is apparently a pastiche of McDonald's previous corrupt antagonist characters who were all a force for good that have gone over the edge:
- The brainwashed Superman from Batman Beyond (a long-time known superhero turned villain upon being controlled by Starro)
- The paranoid CIA agent Kent Mansley from The Iron Giant (an ally of the U.S. who views the protagonist as a threat)
- The jealous Dr. Wilson Croft from Flubber (the protagonist's equal counterpart who is jealous of the protagonist gaining all the attention)
- The jealous golfer Shooter McGavin from Happy Gilmore.
- The stern and antagonistic Harvey Dent from Beware the Batman.
- Carl's new face after plastic surgery slightly resembled his voice actor Christopher McDonald, especially the new thick lips and the bags underneath the eyes.
- In Arrested Development, Carl was briefly mentioned by Ben, Billy and the press.

2008 Larkmead Vineyards Tocai Friulano
Winemaker Notes
Alcohol 13.1%
80% Tocai Friulano, 20% Sauvignon Blanc
100% Estate Grown Fruit
Barrel fermented and aged 8 months in neutral French oak and Stainless Steel barrels
114 cases produced
Tasting Notes
"The 2008 Tocai Friulano represents the signature style of Larkmead's developing white wine program -- a program that focuses on producing unique, intensely aromatic and refreshingly nuanced white wines.
Aromas of spring blossoms and ripe pear dominate the floral and fruit forward nose. The wine's perfumed freshness continues to evolve as it aerates and warms in the glass bringing forth sweet lemon grass and a soft fennel character. In the mouth a subtle tropical oiliness commands your attention in the front of the palate but is counterbalanced by the wine's green apple acid and lime zest on the finish.
Barrel fermented for eight months in stainless steel and neutral French Oak barrels, the wine is poised between being a crisp, refreshing summer white while maintaining the body, richness and texture of a more serious drinking wine."
— Daniel Petroski, Winemaker

I took my first hot yoga class in March of 2008 at the urging of a good friend to help alleviate the chronic low back pain I had been enduring most of my life, following a debilitating car accident in 1993. The first class was like nothing I had ever done before and left me in tears of joy in final savasana with the knowledge that I was hooked for life. A consistent practice since then has transformed me from near-invalid to the pain-free and drug-free individual I am today. I travel frequently for work and have practiced all over the west coast of the US as well as Indonesia and Thailand, where I recently completed my 200 hour Yoga Alliance RYT teacher training. In addition to my yoga, I hold two masters degrees (one in Mathematics and one in Statistics) and a Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt certification, which I use regularly to entertain people at cocktail parties. When I am not sweating in class or guiding others to do so, I can be found crafting, dancing, or playing with my two lovable dogs.

"The classes I took were really good - Erika is a very high energy person and she tries to make the classes interesting, fun, and comical. She is very observant of the students to be able to give corrections in a fun way and get the most out of the class. She does a good job of trying to keep the heat consistent and not kill students."
Jamie B. February 1, 2011
"I was lucky enough to have Miss Erika be my personal yoga teacher for one incredible week in Bali! She is an absolutely amazing woman and teacher! She has a sense of humor to make a 90 minute hot yoga experience bearable, along with the sensitivity and patients that make you feel completely comfortable. Her passion for yoga is evident, and her enthusiasm is contagious. I always feel that I can ask her questions and she is always happy to explain and demonstrate poses. I have taken yoga classes off and on for several years, and I can easily say that she is the best yoga teacher I have ever had. I am looking forward to being back in Santa Cruz and being a regular at her upcoming studio Hot Yoga Sanctuary. I highly recommend her classes to any level of yogi! You will surly have an incredible experience!"
Paul G. February 1, 2011
"I've attended a few of Erikas classes and I always feel challenged during the class end energised afterwards. Keep it up Erika!
