Great Family Get-Away!
We had such a great time in this lovely cottage. The owners were very helpful and welcoming, the amenities had everything we needed, the location is perfect for getting away but being central to lots of fun day trips. We really enjoyed the fire pit, grill, and our 4-year-old son loved the yard. We're looking for dates now to rebook!
wonderful getaway
Our group of 12 had a wonderful time over the July 4th weekend. The house and barn were both very well maintained and had real character. The pool was sparkling and the grounds were beautifully groomed. The house was very well stocked with everything we needed, and the kitchen was a dream to cook in. We appreciated the modern amenities of a large satellite HDTV and wireless internet access, as well as the old fashioned charm of an older house.
We hope to come back again very soon!

Pacific Fibre and TE SubCom, a TE Connectivity Ltd. company, announced the signing of a supply contract for the Pacific Fibre undersea cable system. The exceptionally long system will stretch 12,750km and boast a high cross sectional capacity. Intended to meet the increasing demand for international bandwidth in Australia and New Zealand, which has been growing at a rate of 55 percent per year, the Pacific Fibre system is planned for completion in 2014. The two-cable system will link Australia and New Zealand via a trans-Tasman cable, while connecting New Zealand to the United States via a trans-Pacific cable. The cable landing points will be in Sydney, Australia; Auckland, New Zealand; and Los Angeles, California in the United States. "Demand for international capacity in Australia and New Zealand is sharply increasing and is on track to continue growing for years to come," said Mark Rushworth, CEO, Pacific Fibre. "The Pacific Fibre cable will not only provide...high speed international connectivity to satisfy the growth in broadband demand, but it will also help Australia and New Zealand realize the potential of both countries' multi-billion dollar broadband initiatives."
Upon completion, the Pacific Fibre system will be the highest-capacity-per-fiber-pair system ever built. The cables will each have two fiber pairs, with an ultimate cable design capacity of 12.8 Tbps.

I remind myself that, as I sit here now,
God is gazing on me with love and holding me in being.
I pause for a moment and think of this.
I remind myself that, as I sit here now,
God is gazing on me with love and holding me in being.
I pause for a moment and think of this.
Lord, may I never take the gift
of freedom for granted. You gave
me the great blessing of freedom of
spirit. Fill my spirit with Your peace and
Your joy.
Knowing that God loves me unconditionally, I can afford to be honest about how I am. How has the last day been, and how do I feel now? I share my feelings openly with the Lord.
The Jews took up stones again to stone him. Jesus replied, "I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these are you going to stone me?" The Jews answered, "It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you, but for blasphemy, because you, though only a human being, are making yourself God." Jesus answered, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, you are gods'? If those to whom the word of God came were called 'gods' - and the scripture cannot be annulled - can you say that the one whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world is blaspheming because I said, 'I am God's Son'? If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me. But if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father." Then they tried to arrest him again, but he escaped from their hands. He went away again across the Jordan to the place where John had been baptizing earlier, and he remained there. Many came to him, and they were saying, "John performed no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true." And many believed in him there.
Remembering that I am still in God's presence,
I imagine Jesus himself standing or sitting beside me,
and say whatever is on my mind, whatever is in my heart,
speaking as one friend to another.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be,
world without end.
If you appreciated the daily prayer or have any suggestions or insights we will be glad to hear from you.
If someone asked you to give them another word for 'God', you could use the word 'Presence', for that is what God is. When Moses asked Yahweh his name, Yahweh replied, 'I am who am' and this means 'I am present'. God is really saying, 'I shall be there for you.' God is intimately present to everything, and especially to us. Jesus's name is Emmanuel, which means 'God is with us'. Matthew's Gospel ends with the marvellous statement: Know that I am with you always; yes, to the end of time.
(from Finding God in All Things by Brian Grogan SJ)
Sit in your chair, upright but comfortable, with your back supported. Let your body relax (without slouching), with your feet on the floor in front of you and your hands at rest on your thighs or joined in your lap.
Close your eyes, or fix them on some point in front of you. Now let your whole attention focus on what you can feel in your body. You may start at your feet and work upwards, letting your attention dwell, perhaps only for a few seconds, on whatever part of the body you can feel, shifting attention from one part of the body to the other, although the longer you can hold attention on one part, the better. Your attention is on what you are feeling, not on thoughts about feeling. If you are uncomfortable, or itch or want to move position, just acknowledge the discomfort, assure yourself that it is all right and, without moving, continue to focus attention on what you can feel in the body.
The mind rarely leaves us long in peace to do this, but begins to demand attention with comment and questions: This is a waste of valuable time. What has this to do with prayer? Is this some kind of Hindu thing? What is the point of it? Deal with the questions and comment as you dealt with the itch; acknowledge them, then return to feeling the body.
You can, if you like, move into more explicit prayer by repeating to yourself St Paul's phrase, In him I live, and move, and have my being.
(adapted from God of Surprises by Gerry W Hughes SJ)
This exercise involves concentrating all your attention on the physical feelings of breathing in and breathing out, without deliberately changing the rhythm of your breathing.
Focus attention on feeling the cold air entering your nostrils and the warm air when you exhale. At first you may become self conscious about your breathing and find it becomes irregular, but this does not, as a rule, continue. If it were to do so, and you find yourself becoming breathless, then this exercise is not for you at present.
Most people find that on doing this exercise the pattern of their breathing changes, the breath becoming deeper and slower, and they begin to feel drowsy. In itself, it is a very good relaxation exercise, but if you care to use it for more explicit prayer, then let the inbreathing express all that you long for in life, however impossible it may seem in practice, and let the out-breath express your surrender of everything to God, all of your life with its worries, sins, guilt and regrets.
It is important to do this without self-judgement, whether of approval or disapproval. Keep your attention fixed on your desire to hand over all these worries about self, and do not clutch at them as if they were a treasured possession.
(adapted from God of Surprises by Gerry W Hughes SJ)
Sit in your chair, upright but comfortable, with your back supported.
Now just notice the sounds that you can hear, sounds far away. Just hear them, don't even try to name them.....
Notice fainter sounds, then sounds which are nearer. Just listen, become aware of them.....
And the sound of your own heartbeat, faint, but your own rhythm of life....
And the sound of silence in your place of prayer, the silence within yourself....
Listen like this for a few minutes.
(adapted from Praying in Lent by Donal Neary SJ)
The world is charged with the grandeur of God.
It will flame out, like shining from shook foil;
It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil
Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?
Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;
And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;
And wears man's smudge and shares man's smell: the soil
Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.
And for all this, nature is never spent;
There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West went
Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs -
Because the Holy Ghost over the bent
World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.
- Written by Gerard Manley Hopkins
This prayer helps us to put ourselves at God's disposal. Saint Ignatius describes this 'Preparatory prayer' as asking for 'the grace that all my intentions, actions and operations may be directed purely to the praise and service of the Divine Majesty.' (The Spiritual Exercises, no. 46) You might try these words:
Lord, I so wish to prepare well for this time.
I so want to make all of me ready and attentive and available to you.
Please help me to clarify and purify my intentions.
I have so many contradictory desires.
I get preoccupied with things that don't really matter or last.
I know that if I give you my heart,
whatever I do will follow my new heart.In all that I am today, all that I try to do,
all my encounters, reflections - even the frustrations and failings
and especially in this time of prayer,
in all of this may I place my life in your hands.
Lord, I am yours. Make of me what you will. Amen.
What is a Review of Consciousness?
If it is true that God is at work in every detail of our lives, how do we begin to recognise his action and our reaction?
At the end of the day, especially before going to sleep, the mind, without any conscious effort on our part, tends to play back some of the events of the day so vividly that if the day has been particularly eventful we can find it difficult to get to sleep. We may find ourselves re-enacting a quarrel, thinking of the clever and cutting things we might have said if we had been more quick-witted, and so on.
The Review of Consciousness is based on this natural tendency of the mind. It can help us to be more aware of God's presence and action in our daily lives, and to be more sensitive to where we are cooperating with God's grace and where we are refusing it.
Let your mind drift over the last 24 hours, refraining from any self-judgement, whether of approval or disapproval, attending to and relishing only those moments of the day for which you are grateful. Even the most harrowing day includes some good moments, if only we take the trouble to look - it might be the sight of a raindrop falling, or the fact that I can see at all. When people attempt this exercise, they are usually surprised at the number and variety of good moments in the day which otherwise would have been quickly forgotten - obscured, perhaps, by any painful experience in the day. Having remembered the events for which you are grateful, thank and praise God for them.
After thanksgiving, the next step is to recall your inner moods and feelings, noting, if you can, what led to them, but again refraining from any self-judgement. Be with Christ as you look at these moods and beg him to show you the attitudes which underlie them. The important thing is not to analyse our experience, but to contemplate it in Christ's presence and let him show us where we have let him be in us and where we have refused to let him be. Thank him for the times we have 'let his glory through' and ask forgiveness for the times we have refused him entry. He never refuses forgiveness. He knows our weakness far better than we do. All we have to do is show it to him and he can transform our weakness into strength. We can conclude with a short prayer, that also looks forward to the day to come, and asks for God's help.
Lord, you know me better than I know myself. Your Spirit pervades every moment of my life. Thank you for the grace and love you shower on me. Thank you for your constant, gentle invitation to let you into my life. Forgive me for the times I have refused that invitation, and closed myself off from you. Help me in the day to come, to recognise your presence in my life, to open myself to you, to let you work in me, to your greater glory. Amen.
Trying to pray like this, it may well happen that the mind begins to fill with questions and apparent distractions. How do I know that I am not deceiving myself? How do I know these words are true, that God really does communicate himself through them? Do I really have faith in God? These are valid questions, but for now let them wait. When a child is frightened in the night, mother goes and lifts the child and says, 'It's all right,' and the child gradually quietens. But if she has a prodigy on her hands who replies, 'But mother, what epistemological and metaphysical assumptions are you making in that statement and what empirical evidence can you adduce in support of your contention?' then mother really has a problem in her arms. In prayer we are like that impossible child if we refuse to listen to God until he has measured up to whatever criteria we may care to lay down. We communicate with him first with our hearts. The heart is not mindless: it has reasons, deeper than we can see at first with our conscious minds.
Having left the questions aside for now, what do I do with all the other distractions which flood my mind? I may begin to wonder if I left the gas on, or remember an Email I forgot to send. If it is urgent, like the gas, the safest thing is to go and check. With matters that can wait, perhaps jot them down for later. Anything else which comes to mind, far from being a distraction, can become the substance of my prayer.
Imagine you see Jesus sitting close to you. In doing this you are putting your imagination at the service of your faith. Jesus isn't here in the way you are imagining him, but he certainly is here, and your imagination helps to make you aware of this. Now, speak to Jesus .... if no one is around, speak out in a soft voice .... Listen to what Jesus says to you in reply, or what you imagine him to say .... That is the difference between thinking and praying. When we think, we generally talk to ourselves. When we pray, we talk to God.
Anthony de Mello SJ, Sadhana pages 78-79
Saint Ignatius calls this conversation a 'colloquy', and says:
A colloquy is made, properly speaking, in the way one friend speaks to another, or a servant to one in authority - now begging a favour, now accusing oneself of some misdeed, now telling one's concerns and asking counsel about them. .... In the colloquies we ought to converse and beg according to the subject matter; that is, in accordance with whether I find myself tempted or consoled, desire to possess one virtue or another, or to dispose myself in one way or another, or to experience sorrow or joy over the matter I am contemplating. And finally I ought to ask for what I more earnestly desire in regard to some particular matters.
The Spiritual Exercises nos 54, 199

Topic: Invasive Plants
Title: Removing three-seeded mercury in Austin
Answered by: Barbara Medford
How can I get rid of Three Seeded Mercury (Acalypha phleoides)? Even if I try to dig it up, the roots go down forever and it ends up just breaking at 6-8" down. Just breaking it off at the surface, makes it grow even lusher. I've been trying for years to get rid of it and it's just spreading and taking over more of the yard. The "yard" is horse herb (aka straggler daisy) and other plants that come up that I like. I don't mow. I just pull out what I don't like. But this one weed is defeating me.ANSWER:
Well, you may have to learn to like Acalypha phleoides (shrubby copperleaf), or be more aggressive. It is native to this part of the state, and therefore very adapted to the rainfall, climate and soil. Since it is perennial, just pulling it off the root is not going to stop it from coming back up, as you have already pointed out. You can't spray it with herbicide, as it would kill all the other dicots or broad-leaved plants (like the straggler daisy) that you already have. If you buy a spray that is for monocots, or grasses, it won't bother the three-seeded mercury, but it could kill some native grasses that you have been cultivating.
The first thing to do is make sure it never has an opportunity to go to seed. Even though it is a perennial that can come up from the roots, it will also propagate itself by the seeds on those tall bracts. This might be a time to break your rule about never mowing; if you mow it before it can seed, and keep mowing it as it sends up more bracts to try to seed again, you might just wear out the food stored in the roots. Doing this for several weeks when the plant is trying to bloom, and thus set seed, could greatly alleviate your problem.
Beyond that is the somewhat labor-intensive, hands and knees on the ground, method of painting the cut stem with a wide spectrum herbicide. Begin with a small bottle of the herbicide and some disposable sponge brushes. Cut each stalk off near the root and quickly, within five minutes before the stalk starts to heal over to protect the roots, paint the cut edge with the herbicide. Be very careful, spilling this could contaminate the soil and kill the other plants, broad-leaf and grasses, and don't spray, for the same reason. This plant is monoecious, which means it has both male and female flowers on each plant, and each plant can carry on creating more plants with no outside help.

Thanks. Not super original, because it's based on my earlier game Bubble Raid ... which allows you to aim, by the way, but is much harder than this game. Check it out.
Pretty fun game. Seemed kind of like a betta but the concept is there. A little intro into what the squares were would have been nice. It was my instinct to avoid them for a long time. Also, there needs to be some kind of fix to when you go off screen with your mouse. Its basically an instant kill as it is. Fun job though.
Good idea about the offscreen instakill. I've updated the game so that now it just pauses if you move out of the game window, instead of killing the player. Thanks!

Factory Girls, By Leslie T Chang
"There was nothing to do at home, so I went out." So begins the journey of millions of young Chinese migrants as they seek work in one of the "instant cities" of southern China. Many are young girls who drop out of school and head south in ones or twos, with often little more than determination and a relative's phone number or a factory name. Factory Girls is their story, written by a former Wall Street Journal correspondent.
One of the biggest challenges Leslie Chang faced during her research was simply maintaining contact. The girls live in a feverish city with over ten million young migrants, who switch friends and factories almost on a moment's whim, and where the loss of a mobile phone often means losing contact with everyone they know. To an outsider it might seem foolish that any parent would let their 16 or 17-year-old child into such an exploitative world, but Chang writes of the parents of migrants: "At every stage they gave bad advice; they specialised in outdated knowledge and conservatism born out of fear ... But once a migrant got to the city, the parental message shifted dramatically: Send home money, the more the better."
For the girls, it was often a simple decision. They were young and ambitious and saw little for themselves in their rural towns. Their motivations were similar to Western counterparts heading off on a gap year: see the world, develop themselves, learn new skills. "To come out from home and work in a factory is the hardest thing they have ever done. It is also an adventure. What keeps them in the city is not fear but pride: to return home early is to admit defeat. To go out and stay out is to change your fate."
There are thousands of factories and millions of workers, and Chang's descriptions of Dongguan are sometimes an Orwell-esque vision of work-stations and dormitories; mass labour, morning exercises, and booming slogans. "To die poor is a sin"; "Through doing something, you will learn it"; "If you don't work hard today, you'll look hard for work tomorrow." Job advertisements reduce people to shortlists of acceptable characteristics: "Receptionist: sweet voice. Good appearance and disposition. Knows office software and Cantonese." "Sales specialist. Can eat bitterness and endure hardship. Open to men and women with rural residency. No only children."
Employers are free to discriminate wildly and sometimes advertisements state that people from a certain province need not apply. But the constant moving of workers means that there are also hundreds of vacancies, and to lie about your experience seems the best way of getting a job. "No one in the factories of Dongguan had been properly educated for the task at hand," Chang states, for China suffers from an antiquated education system. "The needs of the Chinese economy were changing so fast that the education system was not even trying to keep up anymore."
Many of the girls do succeed, but find that success has not made them happy. Min works in a designer handbag factory, and fills her room with black-market bags. "That's for holding make-up," she says of a Coach purse, while she stores her keys and ID in a Lacoste hobo bag of sage-green suede.
It's a big story, difficult to research, but as a young Chinese American woman Chang blends into this world. She has a good eye for the social and economic forces at work, as well as the smaller-scale backdrops against which the girls live their lives. As the book progresses, Chang begins to find parallels between the girls' stories and her own family's migrations, first to north-east China in the 1700s, then in the aftermath of the Second World War as they fled to Taiwan and the US. Wherever the migration, the possibility of exploitation and danger does not change, but neither do the opportunities. The same hope of improvement drives all the characters.
China is a country that dazzles by scale but the success of this book is to take the blurred crowd and bring the single human face into fascinating focus. It is also an uplifting book, for the defiant and determined voices of the girls stand out: "In all the time I knew them," Chang writes, "the migrant girls never asked me for help, and rarely even for advice. Life was something they faced alone, as they had been telling me from the first day we met. 'I can only rely on myself'."

Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard and New Girl star Zooey Deschanel have split up after a two-year marriage. (We're still trying to ignore news about that other breakup.) The separation comes not long after Deschanel's cover story in New York Magazine where hubby repeatedly gushed over the She and Him singer and how amazing she was. "I'd seen her movies and obviously I thought she was very beautiful," he expressed. The couple were introduced by their mutual music manager, and the experience floored the indie bandman. "I was just awestruck that she was even talking to me," he shared. According to Deschanel, it was hard being apart from Gibbard on tour, but he was " … really good at calling." As one astute commenter on Rolling Stone's website points out, there's a silver lining in all this: "This means only one thing: the next DCfC album is going to be amazing." Do you agree?

Vice Media is expanding rapidly, thanks to its cadre of young contributors and salacious mix of topics.
View 2 photos
zoom"I think it's fair to say you'll see our 21-year-old journalists in conflict zones around the world."
Suroosh Alvi
Vice Media co-founder
The Afghan village of Mir Ali is known as the Village of Widows.
For 20 years, poverty has prompted local men to cross into Iran searching for work. Many are killed or jailed for drug smuggling by Iranian authorities, so the majority of Mir Ali's residents are women and children.
Vice Media co-founder Suroosh Alvi is heading to Afghanistan to dig into the story of Mir Ali and says he will also report from Iran on the crackdown on the drug trade.
Some of Alvi's journalism will become content for Vice News, a new Internet news channel that went live Tuesday and promises coverage of breaking news and analysis from around the world.
"We want to get into the war on drugs, look at the progressive rehab setups in Tehran and explore how the war in Afghanistan has had an impact on Iran," Alvi says.
"The story will resonate with the Vice audience because, as you know, seeing what is really happening in Iran is rare, and what is most commonly reported is the nuclear issue and sanctions."
Vice has come a long way since Alvi and two partners landed a government loan in 1994 and started Vice Magazine. "We were on a welfare make-work program . . . that got us $100 extra dollars on top of our welfare cheques."
Since then, Vice has grown into a media giant, boasting a record label, a full-service media-planning division that helps other brands develop marketing plans to target young consumers, a TV series titles Vice on HBO — its second 12-episode newsmagazine season debuts Mar. 21 — and soon, Vice News.
"Our news is reported by youth, produced by youth," says Alvi, 44.
It's a strategy that has worked so far.
Vice employs 1,000 people in offices in 35 countries and has 4,000 freelance contributors. Vice.com draws 30 million unique visitors per month. As a Vice promotional video says: "We're opening offices around the globe as fast as traditional media are closing them."
Last fall, 21st Century Fox bought a 5-per-cent stake in Vice, valuing the company at $1.4 billion (U.S.). A spokesman for 21st Century Fox declined comment.
Ivor Shapiro, chair of Ryerson University's journalism department, says media startups like Vice have an advantage over more-tenured rivals — most don't have legacy costs such as union contracts and pensions.
"Today, you have to be nimble and able to adapt quickly in journalism," Shapiro says. "Big institutions have built-up structures and change more slowly than smaller ones. Being a smaller, non-unionized operation is undoubtedly an advantage."
Alvi concedes there are disadvantages to having such a young newsroom.
"The downside is chaos and lunacy, bitching and moaning by people who haven't been out in the real world," he says, adding that those shortcomings are trumped by the energetic vibe.
Alvi, who has produced stories for Vice about gun markets in Pakistan, a heavy-metal band from Iraq and the Islamic hajj pilgrimage, says the benchmark for a successful story is 100,000 online views.
"We're looking for meaningful and killer content for an audience who needs it, who feels a void because what they want isn't being offered by the traditional mainstream media," he says. "Look, at the story on Iraq. There was a fatigue about Iraq because there had been so many stories on the war. We followed this rock band, a really different take on the country, and the documentary won a ton of awards and was watched by millions of people."
In advance of the launch of Vice News, the company recently sent 15 journalists for hostile environment training. More are to be dispatched for the training in coming weeks.
"I think it's fair to say you'll see our 21-year-old journalists in conflict zones around the world," Alvi says. "Maybe we'll have them work with a more senior producer, to help make sure the younger people won't screw up."
Even as Vice hopes to be viewed as a viable alternative to CNN or traditional newspapers, Alvi acknowledges that viewers and readers have been drawn to its gratuitous sexual content. Vice magazine has repeatedly featured photos of topless women, including one montage in 2011 that showed several young topless women tied up with rope.
This means, Alvi agrees, that his report on Afghanistan's village of widows might share space on Vice's web page with "an interview with a couple who have just had sex."

Updated: January 14, 2005, 5:28 PM ET
By Sean Salisbury | ESPN Insider
It's time for players to just shut up and play. This week we've had two great players talk way too much instead of just playing the game. Randy Moss and Mike Vanderjagt should both focus on the tough games that are ahead of them rather than mouthing off.
Vanderjagt is a friend of mine, but he shouldn't be trying to awaken the defending World Champion Patriots with cheap bulletin-board material. Why try to wake a sleeping giant? These guys are the best players in the world and he's upset them. I'm just shocked at the lack of thought process behind that. You have to get to the point where your actions on the field speak for you.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Supreme Court has agreed to decide whether to certify the largest class-action employment lawsuit in U.S. history, a long-standing dispute against mega-retailer Wal-Mart Stores Inc. over alleged gender bias in pay and promotions.
The case would be among the biggest of the current term, and could establish binding standards over high-stakes liability involving employers large and small.
The justices announced Monday they had accepted the Arkansas-based company's appeal in a case of corporate versus worker rights, and will hold oral arguments next spring. A divided 6-5 ruling by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals earlier this year had allowed the combined, multiparty litigation to move ahead to one trial, where a verdict against the company could result in billions of dollars in damages.
At issue is whether as many as 1.6 million current and former Wal-Mart (WMT, Fortune 500) employees can band together in their claims of discrimination, which they say has occurred over the past decade, at least. The plaintiffs allege women were paid less than, and were given fewer opportunities for promotion than, their male counterparts. They seek back pay and punitive damages against the world's largest retailer.
The high court will decide only whether to handle the original lawsuit as a class action, instead of lower courts potentially being flooded with thousands of individual discrimination claims against the company. A potential ruling by the justices against Wal-Mart permitting class action could put severe pressure on the company to settle the claims out of court.
"We are pleased that the Supreme Court has granted review in this important case. The current confusion in class action law is harmful for everyone -- employers, employees, businesses of all types and sizes, and the civil justice system. These are exceedingly important issues that reach far beyond this particular case. We look forward to the Court's consideration of the appeal," Wal-Mart stated on its website.
The lawsuit alleges the company's "strong, centralized structure fosters or facilitates gender stereotyping and discrimination."
The workers bringing suit also say women make up more than 70% of Wal-Mart's hourly workforce but in the past decade made up less than one-third of its store management.
The current litigation was filed in 2001 by Betty Dukes, a store greeter in Pittsburg, California, along with five of her co-workers.
"It has taken a very long time, and a tremendous amount of work, but it looks like we're finally going to get our day in court," Dukes told CNN earlier this spring. "That's all we've ever asked for."
The federal appeals court had concluded there was enough merit in the claims to proceed to trial on a class-action track. Since the lawsuit was filed, both sides of the dispute have held so-called "discovery" hearings, where preliminary testimony was taken to establish facts.
The high court will not judge the merits of the sweeping claims at this stage, just whether a class-action trial can proceed. The parties have the option of settling the dispute out of court at some point in the future.
The company has protested the size of the class action, which it called "historic" in scope, saying it would be too onerous to litigate. The company has more than 3,400 stores in 41 regions.
Declaring class-action status for the lawsuit raises the financial and judicial stakes considerably, since more individual plaintiffs can now join, creating greater potential liability for the company being sued. In federal courts, such certification must generally follow well-established principles to ensure a lawsuit would not become so large as to be impracticable, and would allow the parties to fairly represent the common interests of the larger class of plaintiffs.
"Wal-Mart tries to project an improved image as a good corporate citizen," said Brad Seligman, a Berkeley, California, lawyer representing the female workers. "But no amount of PR (public relations) is going to work until it addresses the claims of its female employees."
Wal-Mart also has been accused in separate lawsuits of discrimination against African-American truck drivers and workers with disabilities. In 2001 the company settled 13 lawsuits by paying out $6 million.
Beyond this particular suit, most workplace discrimination lawsuits fail to reach a court for resolution, according to data compiled by the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
In 2003, when the Wal-Mart litigation was in its preliminary court stages, about 27,000 sex discrimination claims nationwide were resolved administratively by the EEOC, little changed from the prior decade. More than 57 percent-- some 15,000 claims -- were ruled administratively to have "no reasonable cause" and those usually were dismissed.
Just over 10% were judged to have merit, resulting in a total of $94.2 million in settlements, or $34,200 on average per case, according to the data, which include all such claims, not just those involving Wal-Mart.
The current case is Dukes v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (10-277). A ruling can be expected by June.

Sysadmin 101: Securing Leopard
Security researchers at Corsaire have published a PDF whitepaper discussing best practices for securing Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard in a networked environment. The whitepaper is free.
"While the default installation provides a relatively secure system, it may not always meet organizational security requirements. This guide is aimed at users in environments requiring stronger security controls in their operating system, making full use of the protection features offered by Mac OS X 10.5," the whitepaper says in its introduction.
"It may also be of use to System Administrators wishing to enforce an organization-wide desktop security policy."
The guide also discusses key security differences between Leopard and Tiger, and builds upon previous guides for those operating systems.
A direct link to the PDF is available here.

in Lifestyle
Special Saturday Episode of LargeInCharge Radio
Our Children - Are we Influencing them Correctly?
When you're raising kids it is not a complete science, we are all kinda bumping around trying to figure it out.
Tonight we are going to talk about some debatable thoughts on how we Influence our Kids.
From the way they we speak, the way we dress, the way we reward them with smiles and laughs. We are teaching our children what type of behavior is acceptable or not. What is expected of them, and what behavior is considered good or bad. We reward them with our attention, are you paying attention to the message you send?
Bring your views, thoughts, and examples of what you feel is acceptable or not.
Special Guest: Moses L. Rickett
Joy Keys chats with Ugandan Author Dilman Dila about A Killing In The Sun
Dilman Dila is a writer, filmmaker and a social activist who believes that stories are an important tool in creating a better world. Dilman was shortlisted for the prestigious Commonwealth Short Story Prize 2013, long listed for the Short Story Day Africa prize, 2013, and nominated for the 2008 Million Writers Awards for his short story, Homecoming. Dilman's first works appeared in print in The Sunday Vision in 2001, and have since featured in several e-zines and book anthologies, including the African Roar 2013, Storymoja, and Gowanus Books. His first novella, a romance, Cranes Crest at Sunset, was released in 2013 during the Hay Festival in Nairobi. www.dilmandila.com
'A Killing in the Sun' is a collection of speculative fiction from Africa. It draws from the rich oral culture of the author's childhood, to tell a wide variety of stories. Some of the stories are set in a futuristic Africa, where technology has transformed everyday life and a dark force rules. Others are set in the present day, with refugee aliens from outer space, ghosts haunting brides and grooms, evil scientists stalking villages, and greedy corporations creating apocalypses. There are murder mysteries, tales of reincarnation and of the walking dead, and alternative worlds whose themes any reader will identify with. This collection is deftly crafted, running along the thin boundary of speculative and literary genres.
Psychotropics: Killing our Families, Kids and Military Members - Lawfully
The pharmaceutical industry, aided by the Food and Drug Administration and congress has created a climate whereas we can be forced to take harmful drugs lawfully, or, go to jail. This is all being done in the name of profit. Foster kids, military members and others are being forced to take harmful psychotropic drugs with catastrophic results. Dr. Fred Baughman, a neurologist, will be on today to discuss the fraud of psychiatry and the pharmaceutical industry. We will examine how parents have a choice between jail and giving their kids harmful drugs. We will look at how harmful drugs are killing military members and being classified as suicide deaths. We will explore how foster care, CPS and social workers are supporting this harmful situation and threatening the families they are supposed to be protecting.

Scripture Text : Luke 15: 11-32
Key Verses : Luke 15:11-14
And He said, A certain man had two sons:
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.
And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
