Empires - Road to independence
With the British government assuming direct control over Indian affairs following the Rebellion of 1857, the political trajectory of the sub-continent changed. The authority of the Viceroy (representative of the British monarch) gave him enough autonomy to conduct policy from within India.
Forces of changeThe British only manned the top positions of the government and the army. This meant that while Indians increasingly played a larger role in government, they were excluded from the policy making process.
The impetus for change arose both within India and Britain. The Indian National Congress was started in 1885 by Alan Octavian Hume, an officer in the Indian Civil Service. This characterised the spirit of the political process taking place within India, which sought greater Indian involvement in the governing of India. At the same time in Britain, the political debate centred on widening the eligibility of voters. Both these processes suggested greater popular participation in government.
Events began to move quickly thereafter. The creation of Dominion status (effectively independence) for Canada (1867), Australia (1901) and South Africa (1910) was followed shortly by the First World War and Irish Home Rule. This changed India's domestic understanding of its role within the British Empire. It imparted fresh energy to demands for Home Rule and Dominion Status, particularly as this was thought to have been denied purely on racial grounds.
GandhiBut while demands for greater participation in government grew, there was limited public support or understanding of what this meant. The return of Gandhi from South Africa in 1915 began to change this. His movement sought to broaden the appeal for Home Rule amongst the wider population, on economic and social grounds. Gandhi's basic refrain was: British rule has impoverished India materially and spiritually, and India can only restore itself through a process of internal regeneration. The presence of the British precludes this, hence they should go.
Religious divisionsPopular rule, which Gandhi's message implied, worried parts of the Muslim community, who were in a numerical minority but who had ruled India under the Mughals for more than 300 years. They moved to clarify their position within a democratic India. They sought, but did not receive, guarantees of minimum levels of representation within governments at the national and provincial levels. This sense of apprehension was particularly strong in two major provinces: Punjab in the west and Bengal in the east.
The British made few firm decisions through the 1930s, intensifying the problem. The Government of India Act of 1935 failed to assuage worries. Though it did accord a measure of Home Rule, it was seen to be inadequate as the Viceroy and the provincial governors retained significant powers - far greater indeed than their counterparts in Australia and Canada.
Impact of the Second World WarWith the outbreak of war in 1939, the agitation against the British was initially suspended, but increased after 1942 with widespread civil disobedience. The surrender of Singapore, together with Japan's occupation of Burma and incursions into India's north east exposed the frailty of British power, and led Gandhi to call on the British to leave India to 'God and the Japanese'.
The conclusion of war, and the clear support of the Americans for self-determination, left the British with little choice but to leave. Within Britain, as well, the political mood had changed. The final settlement however left the sub-continent divided along communal lines, with the two provinces of Bengal and Punjab divided, and becoming the core of the newly created state of Pakistan, which had an eastern wing, centred on Bengal, and a western wing centred on Punjab. The borders of the new states were determined on the basis of the communal composition of each district. At midnight on August 14th 1947, many people on both sides of the border had no idea which country they would find themselves in on the following morning.
The constitutional settlement was however complicated further by the status of Indian princes and their kingdoms. Theoretically sovereign, they were actually given little choice about which state to join. If they adjoined the new borders, their rulers could decide which side to join. If not, they had to choose the state in which they found themselves. Independence was not a choice offered to them. This was the origin of the Kashmir crisis.

The Cullman Times
Anyone who has ever traveled through the countryside in and around Holly Pond knows why a settlement was built there. It is one of the most picturesque places in a county full of beautiful scenic vistas.
In our series of historic Cullman schools, Holly Pond has, perhaps, the best records of events surrounding the schools and their importance to the community.
Dan and Brenda Scott have compiled an in-depth record going back as far as 1899 when Holly Pond's early days were first recorded.
Like many other communities of this era, one of the first priorities of early Holly Pond families (after establishing a home) was to create a place of worship and a school, sometimes using the same building for both.
According to the Scott's research, prior to 1899, there was very little state support for public education. This meant that local citizens had the responsibility to provide an adequate education for their children. Parents of students were expected to furnish wood used as fuel to heat the schools. "Tuition schools, such as Pine Grove Academy, meant that parents had to pay for the privilege of their children attending school," explained Dan Scott. "Most of the schools in the Holly Pond area began as one-room structures. They were made of logs with split log seats for the students. Some had dirt floors and were heated by a fireplace or wood heater."
Further history of this agricultural community revealed that the school term was at the discretion of the trustees and parents, usually about four months per year. Later the term was extended to five months with three months in the winter and two in the summer. In the spring and fall, children were needed to plant and harvest crops. As late as the 1950's Cullman County Schools closed for a period of time for cotton picking, as did many of the other counties around the South.
"Teachers of the early schools were in great demand," said Brenda Scott. "A college degree, or any formal education, was not required. A Teaching Certificate, awarded by passing a state examination, was required and could be upgraded with further education. Often young men and women would begin teaching at age 16 or 17. Many of the early teachers in the Holly Pond area were from Tennessee, hired through a contact of the County Superintendent."
In going through old records, the Scott's found names of some of the teachers - Nina Mae Norris Bice at Shaddrix, Mrs. Patterson at Center Point, and Mr. Rice at Redan. "The early teacher not only taught in the school, but was a role model in the community. Teachers who did not live in the community usually boarded with the family of a school trustee," explained Scott.
The Scott's also learned that in Alabama, students were not required by law to attend school. In 1915, compulsory school attendance laws were passed for children between the ages of eight and fifteen who had not completed seven grades. These children were required by law to attend school at least eighty days each year.
"Every community had its own school which was a great source of community pride," said Dan Scott. "The school was usually within walking distance of the students. When it was necessary to consolidate schools, it became an issue of great concern of everyone in the community. Some of the schools were dissolved or consolidated before 1920. Because a fire destroyed the school records housed in the courthouse, many of their records are lost except in memories of those who attended."
Those memories have made much of the series possible…
Records showed that Pine Grove School was one of the earliest in the area. The first building was located on Lick Creek. It was a log building with one small room and a dirt floor. According to an article in the Alabama Tribune, Professor W.J. Dodson had a flourishing school at Pine Grove Academy in August of 1889. Some of the other early teachers were Rob Latta, William Price and J. S. McMahan. The school was moved to a new location around 1899 near where Pine Grove Church now stands. Around 1908 another building was constructed behind Pine Grove Church. The 1899 building burned around 1910. In 1921 Pine Grove reported 78 pupils in grades one through seven. The school consolidated with Holly Pond on May 27, 1932.
Further research revealed that the community of Walter had two schools: Mann's School House across from Walter Baptist Church, and Isabella School at North Walter diagonally across from the store. The Isabella School was built around 1890. Among the teachers were Miss Emma Brown and Miss Maggie Ward of Goodwater. The building was a one-room structure where students from grades one through seven were taught by one teacher. It later became a two-room school with Mrs. Ethel Weeks and Warlous Meadows as teachers. In 1913, Isabella School burned and because of the disrepair of Mann's School House, the community came together to construct Walter School in 1914. This school had seven grades with five teachers with one teacher serving as teacher/principal. The school consolidated with Holly Pond in 1963.
Holly Pond School
In the 1860s, there was one small log house east of Holly Pond on Mud Creek that was used for a church and school house. Lemuel M. Bryson attended his first school at this location.
In compiling Bryson's information, the Scott's discovered that in 1872 the settlements from the south and north came together with the Mud Creek settlement to construct a schoolhouse. The site selected was at the campground on the Blountsville – Somerville Road near the large pond which is now in the Town of Holly Pond. Mr. Bryson stated, "The nearest house was one mile away from the school house." The school was made of logs with split-log seats placed around the exterior walls, creating a back to the seats. David Hood was the first teacher at this school in the summer of 1872.
In 1939, students from Holly Pond School interviewed N.S. Stisher, David Lewis, and George Dodson concerning the history of their school. According to this interview, there was a one-room log structure built for the purpose of a school as early as 1873. This school was located near the intersection of the Blountsville Road and Highway 278. They also indicated that by 1890 or 1891, a two-story building with four rooms had been constructed across from the Holly Pond Baptist Church.
The third school building was constructed in 1909 in the vicinity of the Easterwood Gymnasium. A photograph, shared by Christine Shaw Wise, reveals a very ornate, red-painted structure with white trim. It had seven rooms: four downstairs with a stairwell in the center, and two classrooms and a large area the size of two classrooms used as an auditorium for programs or community meetings. This building was damaged by a tornado in 1914 while school was in session. No students were seriously injured. Support poles were used to brace the building until another building could be constructed.
The fourth building was constructed in 1915 where the old Ag Building now stands. This building was known as the White Building and students were enrolled in grades 1-10. Students desiring to further their education could attend the County High School in Cullman, or the High School in Blountsville.
A school tax was established in 1927 which allowed Holly Pond to have a high school. Much of the material and labor were donated by the Holly Pond Community to construct the brick building. A grade was added each year until the first seniors graduated in 1929.
"By 1933, the school was thriving," said Dan Scott. "Three wings were added that year: an elementary wing on one side, a high school wing with administrative offices on the other side, and a large gymnasium/auditorium in the center. There was a basement under the gym where the boiler was located for central heat."
After the close of the 1952 school year, the Holly Pond School building was completely destroyed by fire. Lightning was determined as the cause of the fire. No one was injured, but the event was devastating to the community.
"In 1952-53, classes were sent to various places in the community including: Industrial Arts Building, Ag/Home Ec Building, lunchroom (which was an old Army barrack), Food Canning Plant, Baptist Church, Turkey Hop Church, Methodist Church, and homes of Herman Gilley, Jesse Duke, and Marion Hammock," said Dan Scott. "The new building was complete enough for the class of 1953 to hold their graduation in the new gymnasium."
Currently, Holly Pond School consists of an elementary, middle and high school with over 1,000 students enrolled.

'Six Months in 1945' That Changed the World
An intensely researched, riveting account of six crucial months in history that brings our world closer by examining the remote details of our past.


text:
PORTLAND -- A forlorn 30-acre plot of land surrounded by two freeways will turned into a park for mountain and cross bikes, with a children's playground, picnic area and hiking trails.
Surrounded by train tracks, MAX lines and two interstates sits the future Gateway Green Park.
You can only get to it by foot or bike. It's a mile long mound that was once the debris pile for I-205 construction. Now, covered with dirt, it's just a bare hill.
"There will also be trails for walking, jogging pushing the baby stroller walking the dog...there will be a children's natural play area with rocks and logs and things they can explore," said Gateway neighbor Linda Robinson, who has spent the last five years pushing for the park.
Many Northeast Portland residents are excited at the prospect at a new recreational park.
"There's not really a lot of places like that where people can go just ride bikes and have fun so that would be really nice," said cyclist Cassandra Bogert.
In addition to recreation there will also be a number of sustainability features in the park like solar and wind power.
"All the bicycle trails will be built to demonstrate erosion control, how to deal with water run-off," said Robinson.
The city of Portland has pledged to maintain the park at a cost of about $200,000 a year.
"It's a big win for east Portland in part the gateway neighborhood because we expect this will bring a lot of people to that community," said city commissioner Nick fish.
If all goes to plan work on the park will likely begin in 2012.

Okay I'm kind of putting myself on the line here and it scares me but, I'd like to hear what others think on the subject. So here it goes…
- What do you think of medical marijuana?
- Would you use it over prescription medications if you knew it could help with none of the side affects that come with prescriptions?
- Is it legal where you are?
- Have you tried it for medical reasons or otherwise?
- Have you considered it?
- Would you ever consider it for any reason (but mainly medical)?
- If you're for it,why?
- If you're against it,why?
- Have any of you approached your doctors with the suggestion?
- Where your docs supportive or not?
- Do any of you have your medical marijuana license?
- El Gaupo has a question. Why wouldn't you use it for medical purposes if you knew it could really help?
While I expect some differing opinions here and I welcome them, lets all be kind. Differing opinions doesn't mean trying to change someone else' mind.
There is hope!

They're more likely to commit crimes because they were oppressed. Shocker right? It's the truth though, just like your facts are still true. There are those who are still living from when their race couldn't drink or sit next to whites, they have children and their children automatically hate whites. Facts are facts. The only thing we can do is practice tolerance and allow space for everyone. Wounds take time to heal.

There are alot of 'Oppressed' people around the world. They are NOT 115x more likely to rape you.
Your move liberal.
Anonymous Coward 26892324
No, but a race living directly next to the oppressors of multiple generations of their ancestory may be. The problem is there is too much rationilizing of the situation. You can't say everyone's been through slavery, or that other races are better because they handled slavery better, because each situation is unique. We are living in the time where this recently took place not in ancient Rome or any other time. We must accept what happened, all parties, and move forward as a whole, the fact is, whites spend more time reversing that blame that trying to find a solution. It's 2012, we have the resources and knowledge at this point to advance past this, whether it means giving them their 49 acres and a mule and space or doing something else, we need to make decisions and stop pointing fingers.

Beyond Microfoundations
Editor Info
Additional information is available for the following registered editor(s):
AbstractBeyond Microfoundations discusses the foundations for a post-Walrasian macroeconomics and, in doing so, carries the work of Robert Clower and Axel Leijonhufvud to the present. This book spells out both why an alternative approach to macro is needed, and what the essence of the approach will be. This post-Walrasian approach to macro is neither Keynesian nor Classical, both of which have Walrasian foundations, but it offers an approach to macro in which Walrasian economics is turned on its head. Specifically, it rejects the Walrasian ad hoc assumptions of the existence of a unique equilibrium and of simple dynamics. That rejection leads one to a fundamentally different conception of macro than most macroeconomics have implicit in their formal model. Post-Walrasian macroeconomics offers a vision of macro in which micro foundations devoid of an explicit macro context have no place, but one in which institutions have a fundamental role. Post-Walrasian macroeconomics provides a foundation for an alternative macroeconomics for the twenty-first century built on the edges of chaos.

Arizona (2-0) jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the second inning and blew it open with three four-run innings. Moore finished the game 2-for-2 with three walks, three runs scored and a pair of runs batted in. Farris (1-0) set the tone early by retiring the Eagles in order the first time through the lineup. In the fourth, Chris Kashangaki led off with a triple and scored when the next batter, John Walls, singled home the tying run. From there, Farris dominated, retiring the final 15 batters he faced. To complement his career-high eight strikeouts, the right-hander did not issue a walk in the game. The Wildcats did not blink after giving up their first run of the season. Johnny Field singled and stole second base to open the bottom of the fourth before Moore plated him with a single up the middle. Brandon Dixon followed with a run-scoring double into the left field corner. After Dixon stole third, Trent Gilbert brought him home with an RBI single to push the UA lead to 4-1. That signaled the end of afternoon for Eagles starter Yahya Muhammad, who was replaced by reliever Jhar Devilme. Against the lefty reliever, Scott Kingery collected an RBI with a sacrifice fly to give the Wildcats a four-run cushion. Muhammad (0-1) suffered the loss after lasting just three-plus innings. The right-hander allowed five runs, four earned, on five hits and two walks. The Wildcats added a single run in the sixth and then followed with consecutive four-run frames in the seventh and eighth innings. The floodgates opened in the eighth, as UA scored four runs on four hits against reliever Paul Hawk. Moore delivered an RBI triple and Ryan Koziol crushed a two-run triple in the inning, giving the Wildcats six triples over the first two games of the series. Coppin State (0-2) struggled to throw strikes for the second game in a row, walking eight Wildcats and hitting another. On Friday night, the Eagles pitching staff walked seven and hit a UA single-game school record seven batters. Conversely, the Wildcats did not issue a free pass on Saturday until the ninth inning, when freshman Tyger Talley relieved Farris. The right-hander walked two but also struck out one in a scoreless inning of work. Arizona, which has won 13 consecutive games dating back to last season, will go try for the series sweep Sunday. First pitch is scheduled for noon at Hi Corbett Field, where the Wildcats have won eight in a row.

Although the increase in risk is small, they said, the widespread use of the supplements suggests that many women could be adversely affected.
In an editorial accompanying the report, cardiologists from the University of Leeds and the University of Hull in England noted that, "Given the uncertain benefits of calcium supplements, any level of risk is unwarranted.... On the basis of the limited evidence available, patients with osteoporosis should generally not be treated with calcium supplements, either alone or combined with vitamin D, unless they are also receiving an effective treatment for osteoporosis." Further research is urgently required, they added.
Although there are several possibilities, no one is sure how the supplements could increase heart attack risk.

NCQA Offers ACO Accreditation Review
In January, the NCQA named six organizations that agreed to be first to undergo the accreditation process to be an ACO. The results will be announced by Dec. 31, Thomas says.
They are:
• Billings Clinic, Billings, MT
• Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA
• Crystal Run Healthcare, Middletown, NY
• Essentia Health, Duluth, MN
• HealthPartners, Minneapolis, MN
? Kelsey-Seybold Clinic, Houston, TX
Thomas says that the accreditation criteria may be applied to organizations working within Medicare ACO, or health plan models as well, although some of the criteria, such as measures for pediatric care or drug abuse and behavioral health care, are keyed for a population younger than age 65.

Fruetel said firefighters encountered heavy smoke and fire on the second and third floors of the duplex as they searched for victims and survivors. It took firefighters about 2½ hours to put out the blaze.
He said investigators were still trying Friday to determine a cause, but it appeared the fire started on the second floor, in the center of the building. He said a space heater was found on that floor, but he didn't know if it was in use before the fire began.
He said the building was up to code and smoke detectors were hard-wired and appeared to be working. He said he didn't know if the smoke detectors went off before this fire.
Gov. Mark Dayton issued a statement offering condolences to the family and friends of the victims, and thanking firefighters and other first responders "whose heroism saved lives this morning."
Minneapolis Public Schools confirmed two of the children killed were students at Bethune Community School, in the first and second grades.
City records show an inspection report last summer called for repairs to smoke detectors in the unit, among other violations. City spokesman Matt Laible said all of the violations were taken care of and that the unit's rental license was renewed just a week ago.
The owner of the property, Paul Bertelson, said Lewis and his family moved in about six to eight months ago.
"There were no disturbances. They were good tenants," he said, adding that the upper unit included two bedrooms on the second floor, and three on the third floor.
Bertelson's company identifies distressed or foreclosed properties, refurbishes them and rents to low-income families. He said the 102-year-old duplex had smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The upper unit is heated by permanent baseboard units.
One of the more than 40 firefighters who responded to the scene was injured. Fruetel said he suffered a muscle strain.
The Red Cross was assisting three adults and four children who were displaced by the fire.

How to disable instant upload to google plus from your android or iphone app?
One of the cool features of google plus mobile app is instant upload i.e upload the pictures or video as you shoot instantaneously to the google+ social network.
As cool as it sounds, sometimes it is not welcomed by everyone. By default instant upload is turned on in your google+ mobile application. Now for example, let's say you are using a limited data plan or have less battery, when you take a picture or a video, your google+ mobile app will immediately upload the media to your google plus account which might cause you run data overages or drain your battery.
If you are running into above constraints, the good news is, you can disable instant upload or configure to upload photo's or video's only when you are on a WiFi / mobile charging.
Step by step instructions to disable instant upload / configure settings
- In you google+ application, go to Settings
- Goto the bottom section where you'll find Instant Upload (You can uncheck to disable instant upload altogether)
- If you choose to use Instant Upload only through WiFi, click on the Settings option
- Click on the Mobile Uploads settings and choose Photo's and Video's via Wi-Fi only
- If you choose to save battery, Check the Battery uploads option (This will enable to upload photo's, video's only when charging)
This great feature will save you from losing that precious moment even if your phone is lost or misplaced.
Photos and videos instantly uploaded using this feature are available under Instant upload album on Google+ and are never shared (unless you choose to share).Popular terms

Bosses left red-faced after film preview cancellation
11:30am Thursday 25th October 2012 in News
RED-FACED cinema bosses were forced to cancel a special film preview at Dorchester's new Odeon cinema last night because the building was not ready.
The cinema in Brewery Square was due to open its doors for an exclusive preview screening of The Sapphires.
The Dorset Echo carried a reader offer in yesterday's edition offering free tickets, and the offer had to be cancelled due to Odeon's last-minute announcement.
The cinema is on track to open to the general public tomorrow and a charity screening of the new James Bond film Skyfall, which is sold out, will go ahead as planned tonight, an Odeon Cinemas spokesman said.
The spokesman said: "Unfortunately Odeon Dorchester was unable to open for last night's promotional screening of The Sapphires. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience and assure guests that the cinema will be opening on Friday as planned and a preview screening of The Sapphires will be rescheduled as soon as possible."

The last time me and the missus went to Cineworld in Weymouth, it cost us close to £14 EACH, with food and a drink.
Free parking in the multi story after 6:30PM? Whoopy-doo!!
Plaza Dorchester = £2.50 a film or £3.50 for 3D I think, the food is perfectlly reasonable.
It's now such a joke that 'Orange wednesdays' at cineworld still amount to three times the price of a standard ticket at the plaza, plus it's just been refurbished. The staff aren't rude/ignorant like Cineworld (Personal experience).
Just a disclaimer, I don't work or am associated with the plaza, just disagree with paying £30 for me and the mrs to go watch a film in a substandard cinema! Rant over. :-)

Grief & Loss Community
Have you lost a loved one? A pet passed away or a lost a job? Grief binds all ... more
See All
My Communities
My Discussions
My Email Digests
You are not failing anyone. This loss is still so new and you need time to grieve. Keep taking care of yourself, don't isolate, but allow the tears, allow journaling, and allow yourself to lean on others for support.
Your dad sounds like a wonderful man with whom you had a good relationship. What a gift you had in him, and what a gift you gave him with your own love for him.
There is no 'why'. Death just is and it comes to all, good, bad and everyone in between.
One idea I personally like is that people may die but relationships do not. He is still your dad and you're allowed to continue to love him and all he was to you. And be the person he would continue to love.
Be gentle with yourself.
That's quite a poignant quote, thank you for sharing it here, dear one.
Always feel free to talk here too if it helps.
One thing that helped me after a loss was writing letters to the person. I found it calmed me, eased the grief in some ways. Maybe it would help you too.
It can also help to get creative with projects to memorialize the person you lost.
And just keep taking it one hour or one day at a time.
Can you tell us more about him and his life and your relationship with him? It won't make the grief any less but perhaps focusing on his life instead of his death may help a bit.
I have such a mixture of smiling at these memories, and then crying because they are only memories now.
Have you had someone in your life who you knew without a doubt would take up for you, and would love you even when you were not very lovable? That is what our relationship was like. We were very close, and enjoyed many happy times together. He was so proud of my accomplishments, my daughter's life, and his two great-grandsons. I am so thankful that he was with us long enough to see the boys born and to spend time with them. I know many people do not have that opportunity, and for that I feel blessed.
He sounds like such a lovely, fun man. Thank you for sharing some of him with us here. :-)
Today was also grocery-shopping day, usually one of my fun times (believe it or not). Everything I saw on the store aisles reminded me of something that I baked or cooked for Daddy. As I passed by the toiletries aisle, I smelled Old Spice AfterShave, which was my Daddy's favorite. I actually glanced around to see if he was standing there.
After I left the grocery store, I stopped by a discount store and was hit so hard with sadness that I truly thought I might have to kneel down on the floor. In the checkout lane ahead of me was a gentleman with the kindest, sweetest face, dressed like my Daddy dressed in his chinos and collared shirt, paying for his purchases. I overheard the clerk ask him his birth year, and when he said 1936 (the same as Daddy's), I felt such an overwhelming urge to sink to the floor and cry. I have now been home from these awful errands for 4 hours, and I cannot stop crying.
I feel as if I am just pretending on the outside to the world, but I am just a shell. Does that make any sense? I feel so alone, even when people are all around me, and I am so afraid that I am going to mess up and not do something that I am supposed to do, like mainly making sure everyone else is okay.
I think many of us never really stop wishing for that one more hug. But it stops being as agonizing as it is right now for you. And I think many of us also start seeing our lost loved ones everywhere or people like them, are drawn to them even.
Be gentle with yourself, dear one. I hope you get some sleep tonight and hope that tomorrow is a bit easier.
Strange as it may seem, it is almost as if these people have been placed in my "path" by fate.
I thank you also for this community because I have found that I am able to be open with my grief in ways that I don't feel comfortable face to face. 3 of Daddy's close friends have crossed over within the last two weeks, and I can't help but wonder at how he must feel having them with him now in heaven. I imagine there is a lot of laughter, hugs, and maybe some tears as they greet each other. But it also makes me sad to think that they are with him, and I am not able to get those hugs or smiles right now.
I know that I will be okay eventually...never ever the same, but okay.
Stay strong!
I have yet to begin the journaling. I want to, and I plan to, but I am frightened to begin. Knowing that it helped you will be a big part of my beginning to do this.
Again, thank you, and may you find peace and comfort in the days ahead.

I also own a 2000 Lincoln LS.
I also am having problems with my windows! I'm now having trouble with a steering wheel and struts, I feel so overwhelmed. These parts are very expensive. I still have one more year before this car's paid off.
I've owned other cars that were cheaper and never had these problems. I feel like I made the biggest mistake of my life. These cars I thought were good quality.
I will never recommend a Lincoln to anybody! Yes we should file a lawsuit, this is too much!

Justice Dept settles with Centerplate
Monday - 1/7/2013, 5:48pm EST
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Justice Department and one of the largest hospitality companies in the world have settled allegations that the firm discriminated in employment by requiring non-U.S. citizens to produce specific documents issued by the Department of Homeland Security.
The government says Centerplate Inc. of Spartanburg, S.C., did not make similar requests of U.S. citizens and that the different treatment went on for at least three years.
Centerplate provides food service to more than 250 stadiums, convention centers and entertainment venues around the nation and has over 10,000 employees.
Centerplate will pay $250,000 in civil penalties, the third-highest amount paid since the Immigration and Nationality Act's anti-discrimination provision became law in 1986. Centerplate will undergo Justice Department training and will fully compensate victims who lost wages as a result of Centerplate's practices.

Old and young in CFCA give reason to hope
By Regina Mburu, CFCA communications liaison for Africa
I settled down in my seat on the bus and buckled my seatbelt, ready for the eight-hour drive to Kisumu City, home to one of our CFCA projects in Kenya.
As the bus made its way through the sometimes rough roads dotted with potholes, I thought about the one-and-a-half weeks I would spend interacting with CFCA families.

Private firms in China: Building legitimacy in an emerging economy
AbstractFirms are legitimized by their environments if they survive and prosper. But firms can also proactively build legitimacy to enhance their long-term growth prospects. This is vital for private firms based on emerging economies given the weak protection for private property. This article examines ways in which private firms in China build legitimacy for themselves and their industries. Through field interviews with firm founders and top managers in China various legitimization strategies and the conditions under which they can be used are examined. The authors also conducted follow-up interviews in Taiwan to investigate legitimacy-building strategies there. Though more advanced, Taiwan's economy shares many cultural traditions with Mainland China, and it presents firms with similar legitimacy-related challenges. Interviews with managers of multinationals operating in China were also conducted to determine what they are learning from the legitimization strategies of the indigenous Chinese firms.

Henry VIII was the first English king to employ artists to paint portraits of the royal family. Henry was not very impressed with English artists and therefore recruited them from Europe. The most important of these was the German artist, Hans Holbein, who was appointed in 1536.

TORONTO--Canadian bonds fell Friday as a better-than-expected gauge of the U.S. labor market weighed on the safe-haven asset.
Canada's two-year bond yield was at 0.946% Friday, compared to 0.916% late Thursday, according to electronic trading platform CanDeal. The 10-year bond yield was at 1.749%, from 1.672%. Bond yields move inversely to bond prices.
Investors retreated from bond markets Friday after the U.S. added 165,000 jobs last month, lowering the jobless rate to 7.5%, the Labor Department said Friday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones expected nonfarm payrolls would rise by 148,000, while the jobless rate would remain unchanged at 7.6%.
"A strong set of numbers which will reassure markets that the U.S. economy is not as weak as it may have seemed given some of the earlier data, although it may not be strong enough on its own to see renewed talk of tapering [quantitative easing]," said Andrew Grantham, an economist at CIBC World Markets.
Separately, the U.S. nonmanufacturing ISM index fell to 53.1 in April, below consensus expectations which were at 54. But the missed figure failed to influence bond direction, leaving it firmly in negative territory heading into the afternoon session.
