Haskell County is "High Plains" country; it's one of Kansas' flattest with grain crops alternating with feedlots and pastureland. One of the best illustrations of the climate is the absolutely treeless golf course west of Satanta. The valley of the (usually dry) Cimarron River cuts across the extreme southwest corner of the county.
The US 56 and tracks of the Cimarron Valley railroad (once part of the Santa Fe) run side-by-side across the county serving the larger towns. US 83 runs arrow straight North and South. US 160 connects highway 56 with Ulysses.
The route of the Santa Fe trail cuts across the northern part of Haskell County, intersecting US 83 about five miles north of US 160.
The first county seat of Haskell county was Santa Fe, which won over Ivanhoe when the county was being organized. It was named for Dudley C. Haskell, a U. S. Congressman from Kansas. Lack of any railroads hampered the growth of the county. Freight and produce had to be hauled by wagon to Garden City, the nearest point on a railroad. Finally, in 1912 the AT&SF built a line from Dodge City to Elkhart. The new line missed the town of Santa Fe by seven miles.
Sublette and Satanta were soon thriving along the new line and an election was held in 1913 to select a new county seat. This was the first county election in which all Kansas women were eligible to vote. The county seat was moved to Sublette in 1920 after another hotly contested election. See Ghost Towns of Kansas, page 292, for more about the town of Santa Fe.
The Kansas State Historical Society also has more historical data for Haskell County online including a rich bibliography and lists of cemeteries, post offices, and newspapers.

I worked at Wynn Resorts
Pros – Let's face it. It's "The Wynn Hotel" (and Encore). It has Marquee Value. But the "behind the scenes" is different (see below). However, it was a very good place to work in many respects, team-members were very good, and supervisors and mid-level managers were good to work for.
Cons – Pay is too low for a "World-Class Resort." Food is somewhat less stellar than it should be. Lots of little niggling paperwork issues. Overmuch concentration of process as opposed to results.
Advice to Senior Management – I would like to see management listen to the front-line employees a little more.

No. 1 Alabama 42, Missouri 10
Another game, another easy victory for the No. 1 Crimson Tide. Alabama pummeled Missouri behind its punishing stable of running backs. Eddie Lacy (pictured) carried 18 times for 180 yards and three touchdowns, and T.J. Yeldon carried 18 times for 145 yards and two scores. Through six games, 'Bama has now outscored its competition 243-45.

Drop your briefs, your boxers or your panties for the camera and show your stuff. Send your pics to email@example.com. Nudity only, no sex or sexually explicit shots. Include a first name we can use and a little about yourself if you wish. And its not against the rules to be creative. Your email is your permission to post your picture here. So come on, drop your pants or skirts and show the world how we're all beautiful in our own way. And in case you're wondering, yes, I'm here, but you'll never guess which one.
Note: Use the number (or name) to comment on the private parts you think are most appealing.
84 … W, 44, from California has removed his pants
W reserves this magnificent tool exclusively for women. Doesn't mean a lot of guys out there aren't having a few fantasies.
83 … Brad in Oklahoma has dropped his pants, or did that recent tornado blow them away?
Think I would have enjoyed taking this picture. Great angle.
82 … Romulo has dropped his pants
A delightful handful
81 … Jorge didn't drop his pants, he took them off
As we all know, humans come in many flavors. Jorge has decided to treat us with the Hispanic variety. What a beautiful young man.
80 … Jozef, for those, like me, who can't get enough of this magnificent man
Jozef is also pictured below in #78 and is featured here.
For some of us, the gift of protruding nipples is another spice of life
79 … Steve from Southern California has dropped his pants
Steve says he is looking forward to one day sharing an intimate adventure with another man; and I might add that what a lucky guy that man will be.
78 … Jorge (Wow)
Jorge has not only dropped his pants, he has taken his clothes off. I'm glad he has a camera. What a beautiful young man.
77 … Neal
Neal has offered to show his penis, which he calls cute and queer. Rather handsome might be a better description.
With a little pumping help, Neal is demonstrating it's full potential. Maybe I should try that.
76 … Jozef from the Netherlands (see a feature article on Jozef here)
Jozef dropped his pants to let you see what a Dutch penis looks like. Looks more like he's from Texas, where everything is bigger. What a beautiful smooth look.
75 … Jake, 19, from South Carolina, has dropped his pants
Jake has a lot of years ahead of him to enjoy his awesome manhood
Bet he enjoys sharing it
74 … Jake, happily married, heterosexual male
Jake knows the emotions involved when a man has a small penis. It's good to know he has set aside the nonsense about small men and is proud to share his maleness here on Enlightened Male
73 … No Name
No name but very nice size and shape
72 … Bear (See the feature article on Bear here)
71 … Joe
A new craze is born. Men celebrating and showing off their small dicks. Perhaps April should be small penis appreciation month. Thanks Joe. You've helped define the phrase: "Variety is the spice of life."
70 … anonymous
69 … Joe from Los Angeles and Utah, married, 58
A fine Santa Claus, dressed of course, but wearing clothes isn't why Joe is here.
He's spreading the word that a big man can have a small penis and be proud of it.
68 … Tim from Oklahoma, 23 years old
From a tempting acorn to a handsome oak, Tim shares the goods on the Internet.
66 … D*** (name withheld by request)
I can see why D*** wanted his name withheld, otherwise he'd have suitors lining up at the door. Very nice.
Smooth must be a growing trend. Seems a lot guys dropping their pants also shave.
65 … Paul
Paul shows us proof that foreskins have their own personality. Paul's is exquisite. I bet it is dramatic soft.

People with disabilities working in the metroFargo, ND (WDAY TV) -- People with disabilities in our community are living their daily life like any other person, all thanks to an organization called connections.
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) -- People with disabilities in our community are living their daily life like any other person, all thanks to an organization called connections.
This organization helps them hold jobs, live on their own, and gain independence.
29 year old Justin Skaurud is busy bagging shoppers groceries here at Hornbachers.
Kathy: "Justin graduated in 2002, and he was ready to go to college in his mind."
He was born with down syndrome, but his mother Kathy says they've never let his disabilities hold him back.
Kathy: "I'm very proud of him, and well I guess it makes me feel good that he does have a job to go to, and it makes it seem more normal, and he feels I think that he is contributing, and he like the pay check like everyone else."
Monday through Friday Justin works as a bagger for 5 hours. He Makes his own money, is able to pay his own rent, and socializes with the community.
Justin is so loved by customers, some even come to this Hornbachers location specifically to see him, and they even give him tips, he like most people spends those hard earned dollars on some of his favorite things.
Kathy: "He usually has them spent, I think before he gets home, "with all the treats here" Yea, pop, gum, you know whatever."
Justin's job coach Amanda Sauve teaches him and the other baggers... eggs and bread on top, meat in a separate bag, and how to load the cart.
Amanda: "To see them learn different things and catch on to stuff, it's really nice."
Being in the workforce for nearly ten years, a bagger since 2007, Justin continues to perfect his skills and continues to make his boss, customers, and family smile, but the most important part is that this job gives Justin self worth, responsibility, and the chance to be just a normal employee at a job he loves.
Kathy: "Instead of looking at his disability, I like to look at how socially he is normal."

A statewide poll conducted by Global Strategy Group last month shows voters support a marriage equality bill. According to the poll, a decisive number of Delawareans support treating all loving couples and their families equally under the law. The poll of 600 likely 2014 voters was conducted on February 12 through 14th and showed that 54% of voters in the state support the General Assembly passing a marriage equality bill – with 37% opposed to the bill. Currently same sex couples can marry in 9 states – including Maryland – and the District of Columbia.

We serve lunch between 12.00 and 14.00 in our Bistro Conservatory with breathtaking sea and garden views.

Shuttle Linux Minis to Come with VIA
Taiwan-based hardware manufacturer Shuttle has released a series of mini-desktops running Linux. The next generation will have power-efficient VIA Nano processors.
The Shuttle mini-desktops aren't exactly netbooks, rather compact desktops. At 28 x 19 x 17 cm they wouldn't fit into most handbags, but they take up much less space on the desk. The series called KPC (for Korporate Perfect Cube) includes the mini-desktops with Intel chipsets in various configurations, even a selectable housing design. An upcoming power-saving model will include a VIA Nano processor. The Shuttle K56, as it's called (known as the K560V in Europe), has two monitor connections and passive CPU cooling. The VIA variant should be ready for delivery about early April 2009; prices haven't yet been determined.
Shuttle's earlier K45 (K450V in Europe) cube as been out for some time, equipped with Intel Celeron. The company presented the absence of a front-panel optical drive and USB port on the cube as a distinct security feature to prevent data theft and malware. Its space-saving design accounts for an optimum selection of build elements that do not require complex cooling. The K450V model has a 92 mm fan at the rear with an Intel-boxed cooler. The complete SLK4500 is priced at about $300, the barebones K4500 at $200.
Shuttle has also released a power-saving XPC X2700 with Foresight Linux (or in Europe as the X270VA with openSUSE) with an Intel Atom processor, 1-GByte DDR2 memory, 160-GByte hard disk (in the X270VA version) and a DVD burner, starting at about $400.
The hardware vendor started to show off its Linux mini-desktops in September 2007. The difference between the U.S. and European Linux models is that the U.S. models have Foresight Linux and the European models have openSUSE from Novell.

shuttleHey, I love these Shuttle's. Been running Mepis on mine for years, bought several more for a local company and put Fedora 8 on one and Debian Etch on the other. No observed issues, owners are content. They take up so little room, why can't other PC makers downsize the big box? The local store quit selling these Shuttles so now I have to special order, big PITA!

With enactment this winter of a law banning "texting" while driving in West Virginia, Ohio became surrounded by states with laws against the practice. Yet Buckeye State legislators seem unable to bring themselves to do the right thing.
Thirty-six states have statutes prohibiting use by motorists of cellular phones or other devices to send text messages. The bans were approved because texting is a prime example of "distracted driving." It is dangerous to both drivers who engage in it and others on our streets and highways.
It has been suggested for several years that Ohio should follow other states in enacting a law against texting. Last summer the state House of Representatives approved such action by a lopsided 88-10 vote.
But a similar measure is stalled in the state Senate. Reportedly, leaders there are determined to keep the bill bottled up.
There is no good reason for that. Other than fear of alienating irresponsible drivers who are hooked on texting, there is no reason of any kind.
How badly is a texting ban needed in Ohio? Consider a recent study by the University of Texas that found 16,141 Americans died in accidents caused by texting during the past six years.
Some researchers have concluded texting is more dangerous than driving under the influence of alcohol.
Law enforcement agencies want a texting ban. Insurance companies say it would reduce the toll of deaths, injuries and property damage caused by texting drivers. Most members of the public seem to agree with a ban.
So why aren't state Senate leaders proceeding with it?
That's a good question - to which there is no acceptable answer. Ohioans should demand the state Senate approve a ban on texting while driving.

Dog Bladder Cancer Treatment
Canine and feline urinary tract infection is a common occurrence. In some cases, however, the symptoms may indicate bladder cancer. The important signs of prevalence of a growth in the bladder are similar for urinary tract infections in dogs and cats. This hampers an early detection of the tumor. Usually it is severe infections that do not respond to antibiotics that end up in further investigations, leading to a late detection.
Benign tumors of smooth muscle and polyps that occur in the bladder are very rare. These can be removed surgically and usually do not recur. Small masses that do not invade healthy tissue can also be removed surgically.
But in the case of cancerous growths, the cancer is found in parts of the bladder from where it is difficult to remove. Bladder cancer is invasive and affects the bladder walls, making it difficult to remove. In addition, by the time it is diagnosed the cancer cells are found to have metastasized or spread to other parts in the body.
The region where the ureters meet the bladder, the bladder neck, and the first portion of urethra are inaccessible and cancer in these areas is impossible to remove. The only surgery that can be done is a biopsy to study the type of growth so that suitable medication can be prescribed.
The veterinarian has the option to choose between Chemotherapy and Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). Chemotherapeutic drugs are toxic and have serious side effects. Bone marrow suppression caused by these drugs leads to a low white blood cell count as well as gastrointestinal disorders like nausea and vomiting and kidney toxicity.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have shown a fair amount of promise in the treatment of bladder cancer although the mechanism of their action is not completely understood by specialists yet. Even though the disease progresses in stages, partial remission and some stability has been observed in many instances. Side effects of these drugs include nephropathy, which is mainly damage to the kidneys.
Radiation therapy is used in specialized institutions and is used in cases where a beam of radiation can be directed towards the location of the tumor and the areas where cancer has spread. It is associated with side effects like damage to the skin and adjoining healthy tissue.
Treatment rarely cures bladder cancer and the fundamental goal is to provide temporary relief and to give a better quality of life to the dog. Although bladder cancer is more common among older dogs, UTI in puppies should also be investigated thoroughly to be on the safer side.

One of the things that drew us to New Mexico was the pervasive spirituality, of the people—Indian, Hispanic, and Anglo—and of the landscape itself. Why does the desert seem spiritual? Why was the desert the birthplace of so many faiths? Daniel Matt, in his book God and the Big Bang, gives one reason why:
Silence is essential. We cannot hear something new if we are babbling away or carrying on a constant internal monologue. By quieting the mind, by emptying ourselves of preconceptions, we create a space for the alef to spell itself out in new ways. Why was the Torah given in the desert? Because "one cannot aquire wisdom or Torah unless one makes oneself like an ownerless desert."
To enter the desert, to become the desert, we must surrender our images. The vast wilderness mocks our mental habits, and its stark grandeur inspires the I to renounce the claim to who it thinks it is, to see through itself—if only for a moment (112).

And What We Can Do To Get Back to the Basics.
Something horrible happened this weekend. I was downtown with a friend having a great time and when she said something funny, I responded by saying, "L-O-L!" My hand clapped over my mouth in shame. What was this? I'm a communications professional and I write about presenting in front of large audiences and now, here I am, busting out "chat speak" in the middle of my conversations. This is an unacceptable influence that texting and social media are having on my communication skills.
I'm almost certain this same influence is bleeding over into my written communication as well. Email correspondence and written letters (yes – I still send things that way) have been effected not only by the dominance of Twitter, SMS messaging, and Facebook in my life, but also in general by my proximity to the computer and smart phone. Things like spelling and punctuation are suddenly less of a concern because something with an artificial brain will now think for me.
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln studied a similar phenomenon in regards to the use of calculators in the classroom. A teacher working on their MAT noticed that assessment scores were low for sections on the tests that did not allow the use of calculators and decided to test the theory that technology was taking the students too far from the "basics". In the end, the teacher found that there was an increase in non-calculator related sections of tests. (It should be noted that her findings were small and didn't move her to abdicate removal of calculators from the classroom).
Now, I don't care about math because I've never been very good at it, with or without the calculator, but I do care that technology can have detrimental effects on both communication and social skills. And while I support and love the growth of social media – the fact remains that when you find a "new" way of doing things, you forget the "old" ways. (Do you think a five year old would know what to do with a record or an 8-track?) So while you're Tweeting and texting, take a few moments to keep your communication skills fresh.
Do you think your communication has been affected by technology? Are you trying to get back to having those basic skills of writing and speaking to others without the technology buffer zone? What kind of tips do you have?

The Moran clan have produced some very interesting folk.
The anglicized "Moran" can be traced to multiple distinct Irish names, and though commonly linked to County Mayo, forms of the name originated throughout middle Ireland in Counties Leitrim, Galway, Kildare, Offaly, and more. Moran is so heavily anglicized - from the French "Morrin" to the Irish "Moran" - that exact knowledge of each Moran's lineage may be hard to trace.
Most Morans will find it helpful in tracing their roots if they can determine the particular county or region of Ireland to which their family belongs. The ancient form of Moran is the Gaelic Moráin, from a diminutive of mr, meaning "big."
Roughly translated, Moráin means descendant of the "Great One" or "little big man." The Moráins hailed from Mayo, notably in the northwestern area of the modern town of Ballina where the ancient kingdom of the Mráin sept is believed to have been. After the Norman invasion of 1169, the Mráins lost control of their territory to the Burkes and Barretts.
Today Morans are located mainly in the southern region of Mayo and Galway, suggesting that the Mráins migrated southward after their defeat. Among the many different spelling variations of the name is O Moghrain, which was earlier O Mughrain, and connected to O Mughriain of Ui Maine, who was chief of Criffon in County Galway, which explains the presence of the Moran name in this area.
A third ancient form of the Moran name is Murcháin, from the Gaelic "murchadha," meaning "sea-warrior." In modern times, Murcháin is most often translated as Morgan or Moran (as a contraction of Morgan) though it has also taken the forms "Morahan" and "Morrin."
The ancient Murcháin family hailed from eastern Offaly, near Kildare. The Morans have distinguished themselves as statesmen, artists, athletes, businessmen and performers. Among notable Morans is the well-known folk-history figure Michael Moran (1794-1856), better known as Zozimus. A blind musician, Michael made his living on the streets performing ballads and recitations of famous works. A monument stands in his honor in Glasnevin Cemetery in Dublin.
Daniel Keys Moran, a prolific American writer and author of "The Tales of the Continuing Time" series, is well known in the contemporary science fiction literary community, and has had several short essays and stories featured on National Public Radio.
The Morans have had influence on gender equality as well: Frances Moran (1893-1977) was the first woman Professor at Trinity College Dublin, and the first woman on the board of the college. She is also remembered as the first Irishwoman to become a senior counsel, and for blazing a trail for Irishwomen in academia and politics.
American actress Erin Moran holds a place in the hearts of classic television enthusiasts for her role as Joannie Cunningham on the sitcom "Happy Days." Erin Moran followed the sitcom with her own series "Joannie Loves Chachi" as well as appearances on "Love Boat" and "Murder, She Wrote."
Irish footballer Kevin Moran (born 1954) is the only sports player to have won both an All-Ireland Gaelic Football Medal and an English FA Cup Medal. He played Gaelic football with the Dublin team from 1975 to 1977 and won two All-Ireland medals before joining Manchester United and winning the FA Cup in 1983 and 1985. The dual star played for the Irish national soccer team 71 times.
Morans also distinguished themselves in the artistic field. The work of American landscape painter Thomas Moran (English-born, American Hudson River School 1837-1926) can be seen in museums throughout the country, including the Fine Arts Museum in San Francisco. One of his most famous images is of the Grand Canyon.
During the American Civil War, Union soldier Lt. Charles H. Moran took part in a daring escape from a Confederate prison in Richmond, Virginia. He was one of 109 escapees who crawled through a rat-infested tunnel to make their getaway. Fifty-nine succeeded in reaching Union lines, 48 were recaptured, including Moran, and two drowned in the nearby James River. Moran later wrote, "No tongue can tell how the poor fellows passed among the squealing rats, enduring the sickening air, the deathly chill, the horrible interminable darkness."
Another member of the clan who made a great escape - from the porn industry - is Crissy Moran, the former Playboy and Hustler centerfold who embraced Christ and became a social worker.
On the other end of the community service scale, we have Father Moran, a Jesuit missionary from Chicago who went to India in 1919 and befriended Mahatma Gandhi.
The name Moran is a derivative of the Irish word mór meaning big. Tom Moran, Irish Americamagazine's 2008 Irish-American of the Year, is big by name and big by nature. He looks like a line backer - the kind of guy you would want in your first line of defense. And for many people, especially in Africa, he is just that - the smiling, red-haired white guy who comes to visit and goes away leaving them better-off.
Tom, who has achieved great success as a businessman - he's chairman, president and CEO of the insurance giant Mutual of America - is also chairman of Concern Worldwide U.S., the Irish-born relief organization that operates in 30 of the poorest countries in the world.
In addition to Concern, Tom has contributed to many humanitarian and community causes, and has used his quiet style of diplomacy to promote peace in Northern Ireland. He serves on a number of boards, including Aer Lingus, the North American Advisory Board of the Michael Smurfit Graduate School of Business at University College Dublin (UCD), the Taoiseach's Economic Advisory Board, the American Cancer Society Foundation and the National Committee on American Foreign Policy.
Married to Joan, whose family, the Maloneys and Burkes have roots in counties Clare and Limerick, Tom was born on Staten Island, New York in 1952, to an Italian-Irish-American mother and an Irish-American father. He has a brother Jack and a sister Bess.
He will tell you just as fast that it was Bill Flynn, the then chairman of Mutual of America, who introduced him to the notion that it was time for peace in Northern Ireland. Tom was on board in a heartbeat, mostly behind the scenes where he nudged, cajoled, and made friends on all sides - getting his point across with humor and persistence.
Tom first visited Ireland in 1970. Of the trip, he says: "I met a couple of guys at Doherty's Bar and Grill on Staten Island and they invited me over. I had a great time. It was an exciting time with good friends, but the truth of it is my real passion for Ireland came after being able to go there with Bill Flynn and Bill Barry and seeing the great relationships they had already developed."
The following quotes say much about the high regard in which Tom Moran is held by his contemporaries. He himself shies away from the limelight. When he is the center of attention, he draws the focus to others - the life lessons he learned working alongside Benny the hot dog man at Nathan's, or from the guys in the garage he met driving a cab during his college years. In his spare time, he still likes to drive - one of his several motorbikes.
"Your contribution to peace in Northern Ireland has been exceptional. The affection and esteem in which you are held by political parties representing both traditions there, as well as the British and Irish governments, is a testament to your unstinting commitment and wise counsel over many years." - Former Prime Minister Tony Blair
"I have known Tom Moran many years. His quiet, dedicated support for the Irish peace process contributed significantly to the progress and advances that have been made in recent years.
"I want to thank him for that. I also want to commend and thank Tom for his exceptional work in Ireland, America and in the poor regions of the developing world, which has brought real change and hope to so many people's lives." - Gerry Adams, President, Sinn Féin
"Tom Moran has played and continues to play a vital role in bringing peace and prosperity to the people of Northern Ireland. His work in America to further joint cooperation and understanding between communities has been as significant as it has been distinguished." - Rt. Hon. Shaun Woodward, MP, Secretary of State for Northern Ireland
"Tom Moran's support for effective policing in Northern Ireland and the Patten Report has been critical to helping generate support for and a greater understanding of policing in the United States. He is a good friend and I am delighted to note that he has been recognized. His contribution to the Northern Ireland peace process has been substantial." - Sir Hugh Orde, Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland.

Creating a fairer Britain
Making strong and targeted use of our powers, combining advice with conciliation and, where necessary, litigation we help people to achieve social change and ensure organisations can meet their legal and moral responsibilities under equality legislation and the Human Rights Act.
In May 2012, we published a landmark report of the extent to which HM Treasury met its legal obligations to consider the impact of the Government's 2010 Spending Review on people with protected characteristics. Since the Report, the Commission has been working with HM Treasury and others on the recommendations. View full details of the Assessment.
Our inquiry looked at the effectiveness of the English care and support system in protecting and promoting the human rights of older people requiring or receiving home based care and support. We have now published our final report which reveals disturbing evidence that the poor treatment of many older people is breaching their human rights and that hundreds of thousands of older people lack protection under the Human Rights Act. Find out more about the home care Inquiry.
Our inquiry into disability-related harassment is looking at how well public bodies are addressing the issues. We have now published our final report which uncovers hundreds of thousands of disabled people regularly experience violence and bullying, much of which is going unrecognised by public authorities. Find out about the inquiry
The results of our Inquiry into sex discrimination in the finance sector have now been published, revealing large discrepancies in performance related pay between female and male colleagues. Our follow-up report set outs our conclusions about the steps finance sector companies need to take to tackle gender inequality and the pay gap. Find full details of the Finance Inquiry and read the report
This Inquiry aims to identify the nature, extent and causes of human trafficking in Scotland, with a particular focus on commercial sexual exploitation. It will assess to what extent Scotland is meeting international and domestic human rights obligations to prevent and prohibit trafficking, prosecute traffickers, and protect its victims. Find out more about the human trafficking inquiry within the Scotland area of the site.
A taskforce set up by the Commission has helped the meat and poultry processing industry bring about marked improvements in the way both British and migrant agency workers are treated. The taskforce was created two years ago following the Commission's wide-ranging inquiry into recruitment and employment practices in the sector. The inquiry revealed serious allegations of ill-treatment and discrimination against agency workers, and pregnant women in particular. The inquiry also highlighted tensions between different nationalities working together in the sector. In 2012, the Commission published a review that includes a set of recommendations to tackle these issues and more, and the Commission will continue to work with processing firms, labour providers, supermarkets and other regulators to ensure that all workers are treated fairly. Read more about the Inquiry.
The results of our Inquiry into race discrimination in the construction industry have been published, revealing poor recruitment practices that block ethnic minorities from entering the industry. The report makes a number of recommendations to improve fairness and increase representation. Following the report, we have created an Action Plan and launched the Construction Diversity Leadership Forum, both designed to increase the number of employment opportunities for under-represented groups and diversify the supply chain in procurement. In addition, BIS has issued new British Standard for procurement in the Construction industry, which includes equality actions. Find full details of the Construction Inquiry

Hi. This is our home in Iowa City, decked in 8000 LED lights. I've synchronized the display with several songs, and the "show" runs nightly from 6pm to 9pm. The music is transmitted from my home and passers-by can hear the music on their radio as they watch the lights dance. I'm attaching one the songs - "Club Can't Handle This" by Flo Rida. I hope you enjoy.

No. motu already has to many great characters to be made into toys.
Not for me- they look like knock-off MOTU figures IMO.
Most-wanted MOTUC: Granita - Hunga the Harpy - Spinnerella - Melaktha - Vultak - Dylamug - Crita - Mermista Sprag, Sprocker and Spritina
I love Minicomic characters but those are the worst.
I would prefer an Ice Hacker, Haramesh, Geldor and Lodar first
The glorm from He-Man Meets Ram-Man tops these fellows by a long way. I prefer the Texeira monsters to the Alcala monsters. His drawings of palace guards and Skeletor's minions were pretty good too.
Vaults of Grayskull - www.vaultsofgrayskull.co.uk
I would buy them.
This was always one of my favourite minicomics, and the main one I can still remember, but though I'd prolly like 'em once I saw them made, I'm in no rush to see these done.
I would love to get these guys, they look awesome. I would add them to Pre-filmation awesomeness.

i would definitely get these guys. i still remember reading this minicomic too, very cool!
Yep, give us the crazy monsters from any MOTU source, especially Teixeira's & to a lesser degree, Alcala's.
Funny Fan Fic: Meet the Rea-Por! (Heroic & Villainous Deaths) & The Mighty Spector's FIRST EVER FAN-FIC
& not so funny Fan Fic: War of Attrition
Trade feedback & WANTED: Bow/SLL style boots!
all the Alcala monsters are simply great.
they should do ALL of them.
those characters have a strong potential, i hope they will do them as a motuc sooner or later.

It would be nice to hear more suggestions on how these guys could be named. For example, to avoid digits, the six-armed one could be Hexor (playing with two meanings of hex). How about something like Demonor for the third? Rep-Tail for the second one sounds nice, but somehow I feel there's something missing; because his head has a somewhat mammalian feel, so he doesn't look fully reptilian. To make him more distinct from other tailed characters (Whiplash in particular), he could be cast as a chameleonic master of shapeshifting whose appearance would "blend" with that of the environment, and named, say, Kam-E-Lion, Man-E-Shapes, Cop-E-Cham or Blendor.Personally, I always thought the speech balloons mixed up 6-Arm-Or and Rep-Tail between good and evil so I could never work out who they fought for! The bad guy wants to rescue people and the good guy wants to use his tail to destroy!!
These would be a great Exclusive or Beast 3 Pack. I would not want these individually.
I'd love to have them.

Found the fourth member of the team, The Brazilian Estrala mini comics have a version of this comic and there was another character the left the obelisk. Enjoy, you can read the mini comic in the publishing section of the Collecting tab at he-man.org
Would be cool down the road, or if they would make a Vykron styled alien with different parts to create them.....

Series 2 - Episode 7
Spencer invites three of the remaining five girls to a romantic picnic on the outskirts of the ancient Italian city of Lucca.
As a new day dawns in their Tuscan villa, seven girls remain in the running to win Spencer's heart. Spencer invites three of the lucky ladies to spend the day with him as they visit Pisa's iconic leaning tower and have portraits drawn as a lasting memento. Spencer has a breathtaking finale for this date, but can only choose one girl to accompany him on it. Spending time with each girl during their portraits, Spencer is frustrated to discover that one cannot seem to put her bitchiness aside, whilst the chemistry with the other two is called into question.
The next day Spencer decides to help ease the tension in the house by encouraging the girls to unleash their emotions with some physical combat in the 'Maximus Matthews Gladiatorial Garden Games'.
Dressed as gladiators, the girls battle it out head to head in a bid to win some coveted alone time with Emperor Spencer. After some vicious hand-to-hand combat and exhausting events one girl emerges victorious and capitalises on her earned time with the Bachelor with a stolen kiss.
For the final date Spencer invites a girl to a stunning castle and vineyard in the Chianti region, where they sample the finest wines and relax in each other's company. But with roses at a premium, Spencer is in two minds as tow hether he can see a lasting relationship with his date. Can he give her the rose when he has such strong feelings for the other girls?
In the climactic rose ceremony, one girl faces reality as her dream of a relationship with Spencer is crushed. The remaining girls are left to battle it out for a chance to be The Bachelor's chosen one.
Spencer invites three of the remaining five girls to a romantic picnic on the outskirts of the ancient Italian city of Lucca.
After an eventful stay in the south of France, the action moves to Tuscany for an episode full of controversy and incident.
With 11 hopefuls remaining, Spencer chooses a date that forces the girls out of their comfort zones.
5 !!! cOME ON. Your Player is reeeally bad. It puts me off watching your shows :o(((
the incompetence is really frustrating, and where's the communication beyond the generic and empty promise?
is there a way to watach fridays episode or not? only time im not in work n i wana catch up..........

why is episode 7 from friday just past not up yet????
you have to press the next episode then go back to this one and it works! :)
gutted that we still can't see the recent episode......
Why is this episode still not online?
Renay is beautiful, and she would have won, but she was right to go home. She is so inspirational. Helen to win!
whens last nights showing???
Ok, what if we all ask nicely?? Pretty please.....
Spencer shouldnt of let Renee go! The fact that she went shows shes got class and respect for herself. Jess is to forward, the fact that in the beginning she interrupted his conversation, shows how rude and having no manners! The two K/chloes are too much, if they are like this, wonder what they would be like in the future... Not pretty both of them, just full of make-up! They are just haters!Tabby clearly shows how passionate she is with him, you can tell shes vulnerable. And Helen suits him on a long-term, but if his playing a game, shes too good for him. Spencer chose wisely and think wisely.
I think Spencer is seriously only interested in Tabby and Jess at this point. He's interested in something physical with the K/Chloes but would not date either of these two. I think he keeps them in the hope of getting intimate with them. Out of Tabby and Jess, only Jess seems half interested in him whereas Tabby clearly doesn't want to be there, looks miserable and I don't think she is attracted to Spencer at all. She's a make-up artist and trying to further her career. Don't think anyone inc Spencer is in this for love.
Spencer is stupid not to pick Jess she is clearly the best person for him!!

totally agree,louise. they're both so nasty, spiteful and bratty. i don't understand how spencer hasn't realised! i don't think either of them are particularly attractive but their personalities just totally destroy any attractiveness they may have. aisha is a bit boring but sweet, marissa is hilarious and helen is just so genuine and lovely - definitely my favourite!
Kloe and Chloe are nasty girls...they are both bullies; their dull personalities, and lack of intelligence and integrity make them both seem very unattractive-I hope that Spencer choses either Jess, Helen or Tabby-all three are beautiful inside and out.
Marissa is so far ahead of all the others in looks, personality and sex appeal.....the guy is nuts if he misses out on her.
Anyone know the easy listening music played at the art sessions at the pisa?
Anyone know the easy listening music during the portait session at the pissa?
im trying to watch last nights episode (episode 6) and it won't work? just a picture of spencer on my screen no option to play it or no signs of loadsing, can anyone help?
Spencer, please do not pick Khloe ot Chloe, they are both nasty, disingenuous, gold digging beeeatches! Tabby or Jess to get through to the end, defo.
You are amazing Marissa and you will find a great man that deserves you! I know it :D
chloe lc and marissa are hilarious!
Khloe is so mean to Tabby!! Just because he likes Tabby more! OMG!
Helen should win she is by far the most attractive in every way amongst all the other girls :)
Khloe is horrible, whats her problem with tabby???

Renay was the most pretty out of all the girls in the competition. Tabby and chloe are the best now. the bachelor should defo pick 1 of them. dont think aisha should be there her and spencer havent experienced any time alone together so i dont see why he keeps keeping her in.
I love reading these comments. It amazes me that so many people can't work out they are trying to play next week's episode. The clue is in the date given at the side...
Is it just me or does it no even take a little bit of common sense to realise they will not upload the episode till it has been shown on TV? and us youths get the bad press these days, I believe it's some of the adults who are lacking. Please stop complaining and just have some patience.
Is this a case that its not available until after 5* showing? if so courtesy would suggest 5 let us know and then there is no problem with expectation. Mark
OMG how much longer do i have to wait, anyone no where i can watch this or how long its going to be before its on here?!
Guys and Gls at 5 ur doing a great job but this is a case of eyes off the prize, Ur competitors are doing this faster. asap pls guys ;o)
Omg!!!!! how long does it take to be uploaded!!!! This is why you are channel 5 not 4
when will it be available???
How long does it take to be uploaded on demand 5?! I've been waiting for ages!

Really sad and gutted that Reney went bless her, you could see that she really liked him. Respected her honestly though and i hope they catch up in the future.
Chloe dear the episode will not air until the 3rd of August which is a future date. I'm not sure but I think the next episode won't be available unti after that date???
its chloe agin it has now been over 24 hours and is still not on the website it is getting ridiculous i will not be recomending people to this website beond a joke!
This is a bit ridiculous. The episode was aired on Friday. It is now Sunday and you are incapable of getting this episode online. The website is called 'On Demand' Well blatently not!
Spencer is a great guy, but i dont think these ladies are i n the same class as him no disrespect to anyone, but i loved renee, and i hope they can catch up in the near future. go renee xx
it does actually work this episode is next weeks
not happy i thorght the purpose of this website is to watch programs you have missed on tv, when you come to watch it 12 hours later it is not working wont be using this websit agin!
