U.S. employers added 227,000 jobs in February to complete three of the best months of hiring since the recession began. The unemployment rate was unchanged, largely because more people streamed into the work force.
The Labor Department said Friday that the unemployment rate stayed at 8.3 percent last month, the lowest in three years.
And hiring in January and December was better than first thought. The government revised those figures to show 61,000 an additional jobs.
The economy has now generated an average of 245,000 jobs in the past three months. The only stretch better was since the recession began was in early 2010, when temporary Census jobs lifted payrolls.
The President Barack Obama's re-election chances, although he's still likely to face the highest unemployment rate of any post-war president.

Fischer's Campaign Twitter Account Hacked
Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer's campaign Twitter account has been hacked. The page has been inactive since February 2011, but a new profanity-laced message appeared last week. Since taking office, neither Fischer's campaign or administration have used the page and the mayor has used @louisvillemayor to send out instant messages to followers. In the past, Fischer has threatened to ban citizens who use foul language on his social networking sites. Mayoral spokesman Chris Poynter says they have asked Twitter to close the account, but it will take up to two weeks. This wouldn't be the mayor's first Twitter controversy. When Fischer first took office, an anonymous user created a spoof account—@mayorfischer—lampooning the Louisville businessman-turned-mayor, taking jabs at his personality and wealthy background.

1994 Chevrolet Corvette Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 13 reviews
The 1994 Chevrolet Corvette featured many safety and performance changes, but retained the same look. Leather seats and a passenger-side airbag were now standard. The instrument panel was completely redesigned for a more modern look.
Convertibles now had the option of a real glass window, a rear-axle ratio was made optional, brake-transmission shift interlock systems were available as well. A fleet of new colors including the popular Black Rose Metallic were available.
The Corvette now came standard with a removable body-color roof panel for its hatchbacks.
The ZR-1 remained powerful as ever, with its 350-ci RPO LT5 V8, rated at 405 horsepower.

In case you haven't heard, Steve Carell has decided to leave NBC's THE OFFICE after the upcoming seventh season, which will premiere in the fall, in order to spend more time with his family.
To me his departure just means that it's sort of the end of The Office or at least The Office that we have come to love. After all the whole focal point of the show was Michael, it's like taking David Brent out of the original, it just wouldn't be the same.
That said it doesn't mean that the writers won't be able to find a new direction for the show that can lift it up from its less than impressive sixth season.
Any thoughts on thoughts on his departure? Will you continue watching the show? Who do you think should replace Michael?

Saturday at Reliant Stadium, the Texans face a red-hot Cincinnati squad that shares a lot of similarities with the team that they thumped by three touchdowns last January.
But these Bengals are cats with different stripes, and Tuesday after practice, the Texans described the defensive line challenge awaiting them in the Wild Card round.
"They're really good," coach Gary Kubiak said. "I think sixth in the league, giving up 12 points a game in the back half of the season. Boy, that's incredible in the National Football League."
Cincinnati went 7-1 over the second frame of 2012, with a smothering defense being a main reason for that mark. In that eight-game span, the Bengals allowed just 282 yards and 12.75 points per game. The defensive line with ends Robert Geathers and Michael Johnson and tackles Geno Atkins and Domata Peko started all 16 games together and accounted for 29 of the NFL's second-best mark of 51 sacks.
"They've got an excellent front," Kubiak said. "They're playing extremely well."
The dominance up front isn't lost on the Texans' offensive linemen, who are familiar with the Cincinnati defense after a pair of meetings in the span of a month last season. Before they dispatched of the Bengals in the 31-10 postseason victory, the Texans toppled Cincinnati 20-19 on the road in Week 14.
"I'm very familiar with them," left tackle
Duane Brown said. "Most of them are the same guys they had last year. They're relentless guys, very strong. They're really good at pressing the pocket if they can't get to the quarterback.
"They present a huge challenge for us. The good thing about it is we're very familiar with them. We faced them twice last year, so we know exactly what they bring to the table."
Perhaps the most impressive player in the bunch is Atkins, who was just selected to his second straight Pro Bowl. A fourth-round draft pick out of Georgia in 2010, Atkins has flourished with 12.5 sacks this season to go along with a quartet of forced fumbles.
"He's really strong," said Texans left guard
Wade Smith, himself a Pro Bowler. "He plays through the whistle. He's deceptively quick. There aren't many guards I see him going against that he doesn't get push when he bull rushes."
Offensive coordinator Rick Dennison agreed with Smith, and added his own thoughts on Atkins and his defensive line mates.
"They've been so good because they're very talented up front," Dennison said. "Atkins has been very, very active all year, not just the last half, and deservedly so, he's gotten in the Pro Bowl."
Atkins and company also have the attention of quarterback
Matt Schaub, who missed both contests with the Bengals last year because of a Lisfranc injury in his right foot.
"Their front is exceptional," Schaub said. "It starts inside for them. They have good interior pass rushers and their outside guys rush really well. (They're) very active, very athletic."
The Texans have allowed 13 sacks in the last four games and will be tested by the Bengals, but collectively, the team said Tuesday that they have moved forward and put the regular season behind them.

Thurston County sheriff's deputies were looking for a suspect in an alleged stabbing Friday night at a residence in the 300 block of Nisqually Cutoff Road Southeast.
The suspect is Shawn Foley, deputies said Monday.
According to sheriff's Sgt. Kevin Slease:
About 11 p.m. Friday, deputies were dispatched to the scene of a stabbing between a man, thought to be in his 50s, and his ex-girlfriend, thought to be in her 40s.
After an argument, the man allegedly stabbed the woman six times with a small pocket knife. Another woman who tried to intervene was struck with a flashlight.
Both were taken to Providence St. Peter Hospital in Olympia.
Slease said the stabbing victim had non-life-threatening wounds, while the woman who got hit with the flashlight had a possible broken arm.
The suspect was still at large Saturday. He is described as white, 5 feet 11 and heavily built.

New Neighbourhood Watch Group Set Up In Kidderminster
A new Neighbourhood Watch group has been set up in Hardy Avenue in the Offmore area of Kidderminster.
The group is the first to have the new NHW signs which are now yellow instead of orange and are also bigger than the previous ones, so much more noticeable to passers by.
Neighbourhood Watch is a partnership involving the police and residents who join forces to make communities safer. A volunteer co-ordinator supervises the scheme and receives information and messages from the police, and some co-ordinators have marker kits, alarms and other security items.
Information is fed through to members, who are encouraged to be vigilant and report suspicious incidents to the police.
Members receive Neighbourhood Watch window stickers and crime prevention information. Street signs can also be obtained, which reduces crime by deterring burglars and other offenders.
There are around 1,018 Neighbourhood Watch groups in North Worcestershire.
"We are always happy to help residents set up new Neighbourhood Watch schemes and would encourage anyone interested to get in touch to find out more."
North Worcestershire Neighbourhood Watch Administrator, Mel Clarke
North Worcestershire Neighbourhood Watch Administrator, Mel Clarke said: "Neighbourhood Watch is a scheme that helps residents look after their homes, cars and neighbourhoods by giving them information to help secure their properties when they are away, or just on a general day to day basis.
"We are always happy to help residents set up new Neighbourhood Watch schemes and would encourage anyone interested to get in touch to find out more."
For more information about Neighbourhood Watch visit the West Mercia Police website at www.westmercia.police.uk and click on the 'Get Involved' tab.
Alternatively you can contact Mel direct on 01527 586253 or by emailing [email protected].

Nationwide drivers boosted by new backers
2011 Nascar Nationwide champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr has received additional sponsorship for the 2012 season in the form of Sam's Club and its Member's Mark Angus Beef and Castlewood Reserve brands.
Having served as the primary sponsor of Stenhouse Jr's Nationwide No.6 entry at last weekend's Feed the Children 300 in Kentucky, Sam's Club and its brands will also support the driver at Indianapolis in July and at Kansas in October.
"I am thrilled to have Sam's Club back on our Mustang this year," said Stenhouse Jr. "Cargill has been a huge supporter of our No. 6 team the past two years. We hope to bring recognition to Sam's exclusive brands of Member's Mark Angus Beef and Castlewood Reserve by putting them in victory lane."
Elsewhere, Stenhouse Jr's fellow Nascar Nationwide driver Blake Koch has received backing for this weekend's Subway Jalapeño 250 at Daytona from precious metals purchasing service SilverSaver, which will serve as primary sponsor, and from apparel brand Salt Life, which will take up an associate sponsor position.
"I'm so pumped to be racing at Daytona next month in the SilverSaver No.82 Dodge," said Koch. "It's great to have a new sponsor like SilverSaver on board for the race. They are the ones making it possible for me to race and I couldn't be more thankful for their support."
Commenting on the separate deal with Florida-based Salt Life, Koch said: "I've been endorsing Salt Life for years, and it's a brand I love and believe in. I'm so excited to have them on my car for Daytona as an associate sponsor."

I have overindulged in coffee so my sleep cycle is quite mixed up but I still have coffee on the brain. If you're into coffee too, here's a nice coffee scented candle in a mug shape surrounded by coffee beans.
If tea is your thing, tea cup candles are all over the place. They would also be an easy fun gift to make.
I often see gorgeous antique tea cups at thrift stores that are beautiful for displaying candles.
Here's an example of a cheerful teacup candle called Ambrosia from Tracy Porter. It would definitely add some color and cheer to your home.

Chantel, it is pretty. I hear that about drinking too much coffee though. It's one of the few vices I have left but I need to cut down. I'm not sure if smelling a coffee candle will help with that.

The first one is great with the coffee beans around the outside. The tea candle would be better if it was colored like tea. But very cute anyways.

Verizon Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX on Backorder
The Verizon Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX has been available only for a few days reaching the status out of stock by now. Earlier the handset was claimed to be available in two days, but the idea of getting the ordered device only next week leaves some space for doubt. It's cool the handset, which doesn't provide anything new other than a 3300 mAh battery, causes such interest. Apparently, it's due to the promised 21 hours of talk time, which is unprecedented among Motorola handsets.
Another reason explaining the handset's being out of stock is the BOGO deal, which assumes that buying one, you get another unit of the same device for free.
The company made a smart decision offering a powerful battery LTE device as we are all familiar with the battery-killing feature of this connectivity. Most likely this strategy will be continued by Motorola as the expenses of the Droid RAZR MAXX promise to get paid off.
The Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX comes at the price of $299.99. There's a customers limited version of the device, which can be purchased for $199.99 but only by the employees of the company. Actually, you can get this type of device with a rather high $2250 price tag. Still even if you dare to get this unit, it will be shipped between February 24 and March 1, which is later than the expected shipping of the typical units.

Topic: Remembering Clarkstown
Speaker: Robert Serré, President of the Gloucester Historical Society
Brief Overview: The village of Clarkstown existed from the late 1880s until the last day of 1908. It then became part of Eastview (later Vanier), now part of Ottawa. Its name survived for decades, identifying a close-knit, largely French Canadian community centred on Beechwood Avenue and St. Charles' Church, with its own school board and its own hockey team, the "Charlots." Robert Serré, President of the Gloucester Historical Society, will summarize Clarkstown's history, and describe its municipal, economic and social characteristics. A question period will follow, and – who knows – a few participants might provide their own personal recollections.

July 29, 2010 - Here's a selection of the top mobile printers available today, based on their specs and features relative to different mobile printing needs.
All Around: Canon PIXMA iP100
Although this printer was released in early 2008, it is still one of the best-selling and highest-rated mobile printers on the market. It has a very high print resolution, can print a borderless 4" x 6" photos in under a minute, offers automatic duplexing, and can print a book (or 290 pages of a book) in one charge of its optional battery. Reviewers all around rate the iP100's print quality as excellent. Car power adapter and bluetooth connectivity, however, are optional and there is no wi-fi adapter.
- Dimensions when closed: 12.7" x 7.2" x 2.4"
- Weight: 4.4 lbs.
- Max print resolution: 9600 x 2400 dpi
- Print speed: 20 ppm black; 14 ppm color
- Release Date: April 2008
All Around (Runner-Up): HP H470
The HP Officejet H470 was billed as the world's fastest mobile printer, based on rated speeds as of July 2007. In addition to the high print speed rating of up to 22 pages per minute, the H470 has a sleek design, 50-sheet paper feeder, and more connectivity options than the iP100 (multimedia card reader and optional wi-fi). Other optional upgrades include an auto power adapter and bluetooth. (Note: the H470 wasn't well-rated on About's Printers/Scanners site, and reviews elsewhere are less positive than for the iP100, but if you need the other connectivity options, the H470 may be a better choice for you. Small Portable Printer has a comparison of the HP H470 vs. the iP 100 if you need more help deciding.)
- Dimensions when closed: 13.4" x 6.45" x 3.25"
- Weight: 4.5 lbs. without battery
- Max print resolution: 4800 x 1200 dpi
- Print speed: 22 ppm black; 18 ppm color
- Release Date: January 2008
Ultra-portable: Brother PocketJet 3 Plus
Formerly known as the Pentax PocketJet 3 Plus, this is one of the most portable mobile printers, weighing just over 1 pound with battery and about the size of a few stacked rulers. Although it doesn't require any ink cartridges, this manual feed thermal printer does requires special thermal paper and can only print in black and white. It has an expensive list price, but because it doesn't require ink cartridges, may have a lower cost-per-page. The small size is practical for daily in-the-field use.
- Dimensions when closed: 10.04" x 2.17" x 1.18"
- Weight: 1.12 lbs. with battery
- Max print resolution: 300 dpi
- Print speed: 3 ppm black
- Release Date: September 2009
Photo: HP Photosmart A646 Compact Photo Printer
A more recent version of the HP A626 Compact Photo Printer (which was rated well by About's Guide to Printers/Scanners), the Photosmart A646 offers a large 3.45" touchscreen; on-board photo editing; and printing directly from memory cards, USB, bluetooth devices, or cameras with PictBridge. It's also one of the few compact photo printers that can print photos larger than 4" x 6" -- the A646 can print panoramas and 5" x 7" photos. Battery and other chargers/accessories are optional.
- Dimensions when closed: 9.92" x 4.61" x 5.28"
- Weight: 2.37 lbs. with battery
- Max print resolution: dpi
- Print speed: as fast as 28 seconds
Multifunction: Epson Artisan 710 All-in-One
There's really no multifunction or all-in-one mobile printer as of this writing. The Epson Artisan 710 has a relatively compact form as far as all-in-one printers go, but at 21 pounds it also weighs as much as some toddlers and is not actually billed as a mobile printer. Still, the Artisan 710 was the only somewhat portable printer I found that could also scan, copy, and multi-function in other ways (print onto discs, print from iPhone app, wi-fi built in, etc.). Because it's less portable than true mobile printers, the Artisan 710 may be ideal for the home office user who may occasionally want to use the printer at another location (e.g., vacation home).
- Dimensions when closed: 17.6" x 18.0" x 5.9"
- Weight: 21.4 lbs.
- Max print resolution: 5760 x 1440 dpi
- Print speed: 9.5ppm black; 9ppm color

McIntyre vs. Zacchiroli in Debian Leadership Battle
Two developers have entered the race for the Debian Project Leadership. New candidate Stephano "Zack" Zacchiroli is challenging current leader Steve McIntyre, who is running for a second term in office.
An announcement by the newly selected secretary Kurt Roeckx early in March declared the election open. Both candidates have websites introducing themselves and explaining their individual ideas for Debian's future.
British Steve McIntyre joined Debian in 1996 and has lead the project since 2008. In his platform statement he tells of his reluctance to run for the post a second time, and how he was finally convinced to do so by his friends. If he does win, McIntyre says he will appoint Luk Claes as his assistant. McIntyre has been calling for more communication within the Debian Project since he was elected in 2008 and some of the goals he set himself he failed to realize because of the enormous complexity of the workload. Which is why he wants the support of Claes this time around, he says.
First-time candidate Stephano "Zack" Zacchiroli has been a Debian developer since 2001. "My Debian involvement has been through two distinct phases. In the first one I only cared about my packages, ignoring the community: no IRC, no -devel subscription, etc. Then, at LinuxTag 2004, I discovered Debian as a community and got fascinated by it, gradually increasing my involvement in the project" he says. Zacchiroli is a researcher at the Diderot University in Paris, which he describes as a contributors nest for the French Debian community. If elected, he wants to make Debian more accessible for contributions from outside the community and he too desires better communication at Debian and promises more personal meetings. Dealing with what he calls vocal minorities is also on his to-do list, and in a probable reference to the unrest that lead to the previous secretary stepping down prior to the Lenny release, Zacchiroli says, "Our mailing lists have substantially improved over the last 5 years. Every now and then though, they get polluted by (apparently) very vocal minorities capable of polarizing discussions, which is neither productive, nor fun."
The election campaign will run until March 29, with ideas and suggestions from both candidates being discussed on the Internet. Voting under the relatively complicated Condorcet method will take place between March 29 and April 11. Voters will select candidates according to rank.

Take advantage of LED technology and save money on your electric bill
The LexLite E26 Medium Base LED Light Bulb not only uses a mere 4.4 Watts of energy when compared to the normal 75 watts that is used by a regular 75 Watt incandescent light bulb, but it offers an equivalent amount of light and lasts up to 50 times longer. Not only is it a high-efficiency bulb, but it has reduced CO2 emissions with a lead free and mercury free design, making the LexLite LED an environmentally friendly lighting solution. The LexLite LED light bulb also has safety in mind as the housing is made of flame retardant plastic. Save up to 90% of the energy your average incandescent bulbs use by replacing them with these ultra-efficient LED light bulbs.
Unlike incandescent bulbs, LED bulbs are more directional and concentrated which gives them a much greater advantage when installed in directional lamps or can lights. Because of the directional nature of LED bulbs, the "down light" you'll get when installed in a traditional desk lamp will typically be less bright than that of an incandescent bulb, while the "up light" will be two to three times brighter than the incandescent.

Student union apologises over BNP claim
6:00am Wednesday 10th February 2010 in News By Mark Tallentire, Reporter (Durham)
A STUDENTS' union president has apologised after his officers appeared to suggest in a letter that a debate featuring two BNP politicians could lead to violence.
Wes Streeting, president of the National Union of Students (NUS), said the letter was unacceptable, utterly ridiculous and those responsible had been asked to account for their actions.
Mr Streeting was speaking at a meeting of the Durham Union Society (DUS), in the debating chamber, in Palace Green, Durham, last night.
He planned the forum after thousands of students joined an internet campaign protesting against the cancellation of DUS' multiculturalism debate, planned for Friday.
Durham University Students for Freedom of Speech are furious at the letter sent to the DUS, Durham Students' Union and Durham University by Bellavia Ribeiro-Addy, the NUS' black students officer, and Daf Adley, the NUS' lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender officer.
The letter warned of a "colossal demonstration" if the debate went ahead, with coach loads of students being bussed into Durham.
"If any students are hurt in and around this event, responsibility will lie with you," they wrote.
Shortly afterwards, the DUS called off the debate on safety grounds.
About 300 students attended last night's meeting. There were BNP members and police outside. Mr Streeting was verbally abused as he arrived but the event passed peacefully.
Paul Nicholls, from Durham University Students for Freedom of Speech, accused the NUS of bullying.
Mr Streeting said the NUS did not want the BNP to have a platform on university campuses.
But he added: "Had I seen that statement (the letter) before, I would not have left the building. It was an appalling error and ultimately self-defeating."
He admitted that students were "massively, monumentally" upset at the NUS.
Friday's debate had been due to feature Kulveer Ranger, an advisor to Boris Johnson, Conservative MP Edward Leigh, BNP MEP Andrew Brons and Chris Beverley, a BNP councillor in Leeds.
Unite Against Fascism had vowed the prevent the debate going ahead.
The BNP said its cancellation meant the enemies of free speech had won the day.
University registrar Carolyn Fowler said: "The university supports the right to freedom of expression on campus in line with its code of practice and we respect the decision of our students to demonstrate peacefully."

And now the Labour party funded UAF prevent us from talking about it through threats of violence. This is a very dangerous situation. I only hope that it has served to expose who the real fascists are - Not the BNP as the weak minded British have been brainwashed to believe!

Obviously the UAF are determined to stifle the freedom of speech from those who want to here it
The country is in a moral and financial mess because of this Parliaments open door immigration
So people should have the right to speak and be heard when discussing the future of Britain without the fear and violence from the Brit Haters and UAF

Mr M wrote:Probably much longer than in would if Liebour got re-elected, dont forget the Liebour government has introduced over 70 pieces of legistlation that directly impact on our freedoms and civil liberties.
I wonder how long free speech would last if the BNP ever got into power?
And also please dont forget our masters in the EU tried to introduce laws making criticism and condemnation of the EU a criminal offence.
I respect and admire Durhams students for standing up against the extremists running the students union. Just think though that if the NSU and the Anti Nazis had not threatened the Durham students the event would probably gone ahead peacefully and almost unnoticed.
I also am pretty sure that if BNP members had threatened violence they would be crucified by the media and the left, but because it is the left themselves making threats nothing will happen to the two co authors or the inflamitory letter.

The influx solves two "problems" for labour, one they tend to be more labour-leaning and two they fill gaps in the economy (helping to keep the current fouled-up situation of high house prices and low wages, as well as keeping the birth rate up - all of which would have shown up how fouled up Labour's policies are!)
PS Muslims are NOT a race and it's NOT racist to criticise immigration and immigrants.

9988776655 says...
Idiots!!! If births had fallen off as they should have done, the government would have had to force house prices back down to a reasonable level (about half what they are).

When questioned he said "Compare the number of Muslim MPs in Parliament in 1997 and the number now".
Immigration has to be controlled but remember all parties except BNP need the Muslim vote.
Liberal do not mind what religion their members are as long as they get in.

Sometimes I think we all need to re read some history we covered in school. There are so many parallels between 1930's Germany and our current situation. Lets not turn British Muslims into scapegoats.
The sooner the BNP are given the chance to engage in large scale debates, the sooner they will show themselves as a party whos polocies are half baked crowd pleasers. They want british farms to make MORE food of Higher Quality, using ORGANIC methods. Simples!
On another note, I believe the NUS should campaign on the issue of student finance. I know it doesn't affect current students, but it is an issue current students feel passionately about.

It is contemptible that a racist party, like the BNP, led by people who deny the Holocaust (as documented by the Frost Report) can be made to look good by an equally loony bunch of ultra left wing students (who do NOT represent Durham students as a whole).
The purpose of the debate was to expose the BNP as being the racist, homophobic, intolerant party that they are.
They will return to having 1-2% of the vote in the forthcoming General election.
They are a fringe group. They are racist, and they should be condemned in an open fashion.
8:19am Thu 11 Feb 10
Adam Walker says...
You really are disillusioned arent you. I am willing to wager that the 1 or 2% you quote will be far exceeded in the North East. In fact, in some areas we will be into double figures as we hoover up votes from people who are fed up of being used and abused by our political masters. The BNP vote is growing massively and it matters not how many little unwashed, brainwashed scrotes shoult silly little slogans at their pathetic terrorist demonstations our popularity will continue to grow. As was said by a squaddie when we were visiting Catterick "you (the BNP) are the only hope". You really do need to do your homework on BNP policy before spouting out sounbites you have heard from an unreliable source. Do you know anyone who is a member or supporter of the BNP? I bet more people quite close to you than you think secretly agree with our policies.
Oh yes, and there is nothing homophobic about opposing the teaching of homosexuality to 5 year old children. The BNP do not have a problem with homosexuals. Where the problem lies is in the gross unnecessary promotion of it. What two consenting adults do behind closed doors is their business but to have it constantly rammed down our throats by the mass media from a very early age is another. Of course, if you had read our policies you would know this. You say the BNP is "racist". I would argue that it has become common place for the word racist to be used against anyone whos view differs from what is expected and required of them by the establishment. Is a black board a black board or is that racist too? How about poor little Baa Baa Black Sheep? George Orwells 1984 does not get a look in here in modern day Britain. "Those whom the Gods seek to destroy, they first make mad". It is difficult to pass comment, Gideon on something you know very little about! Do your homework and then perhaps you will be more qualified to comment on matters relating to the BNP. By repeating sounbites you are making yourself out to be a fool. There is no crime in formulating your own opinions (yet)!

What Durham students were fighting for is the principle of "freedom of speech." It is contemptible that a racist party, like the BNP, led by people who deny the Holocaust (as documented by the Frost Report) can be made to look good by an equally loony bunch of ultra left wing students (who do NOT represent Durham students as a whole). The purpose of the debate was to expose the BNP as being the racist, homophobic, intolerant party that they are. They will return to having 1-2% of the vote in the forthcoming General election. They are a fringe group. They are racist, and they should be condemned in an open fashion.

Pete Winstanley says...
According to its constitution, the BNP is "wholly opposed to any form of racial integration between (white) British and non-European peoples" and is committed to "stemming and reversing the tide of non-white immigration." Note: not immigration in general, but NON-WHITE immigration, and not just "stemming" but "stemming AND REVERSING." This it proposes to achieve by a system of "voluntary" repatriation with taxpayer support, which would persuade non-whites to return to their "lands of ethnic origin." During an interview with the Daily Telegraph last May, Nick Griffin was asked what he would do about non-whites whose "land of ethnic origin" was uncertain. He answered: "Drop them out of a plane somewhere over Africa. I don't really care." It is also clear that Griffin still dreams of an all-white Britain, and has said that if the BNP ever came to power (no chance of that, fortunately) he would take control of the British media and use it to try to persuade the public that "every last (non-white) must go."

Pete Whinge-stanley, are you the only person in the known universe who is unaware that the BNP constitution is in a constant state of transition? If you join and become a voting member you can suggest some changes for yourself (I do) instead of incessantly twisting about it, it's called democracy.

Yes, I'm sure the BNP will vote to amend the constitution by allowing non-whites to join. That really should not deflect accusations of racism, because the "political objectives" which I have quoted from (above) remain blatantly racist.
No doubt the BNP will continue to exploit useful idiots like Rajinder Singh, Pat Richardson and Laurence Rustem. As one of your supporters posted on Stormfront, ""Getting the enemy to help us get rid of the enemy is a great idea."
But these useful idiots are just a few individuals. They do not represent the vast majority of British people, black and white, who reject the BNP's racist doctrines.

The students who invited key BNP figures to their campus are not only naive for viewing them as a normal political party, they were also incredibly irresponsible and were essentially putting their fellow students at risk simply for their race, religion, sexuality or if they were audacious enough to dare opposing these fascist cretins.
History tells us what fascists are like and simply because the BNP says they are in favour of freedom of speech doesn't make it so. To believe them whilst at the same time their members are known to deny the holocaust, stockpile explosives, physically attack people, etc is infantile.

The BNP is now required to change its constitution to allow non-whites to be members. At the moment, it does not, so Rajinder Singh has the wrong colour skin and cannot join, though he has said he would like to join as soon as the constitution changes. Pat Richardson is white, but Jewish; so she's allowed to be a member. As she explained, "I distinguish between my Jewishness, which is a religion, and my support for the BNP, which is purely political." In both cases, sharing the BNP's Islamophobia plays a significant part.
Laurence Rustem is part Turkish, so, according to Julian Leppert, the BNP's candidate for Mayor of London in 2004, he's OK because he's only "half wog."

The BNP are a violent, fascist political party who don't believe in freedom of speech. For them to turn around and claim they are in favour of it is simply ludicrous. I know from personal experience that the BNP will send skinheads after you if you oppose them and that is exactly what websites like Redwatch are there for.

It is a very tough job indeed as you can see from this thread but someone has to do it. We are up against some hideously miguided people who care very little that one day in the very near future our country as our forefathers knew it will no longerr exist. The preservation of a race is fine when it is the Maori or Native American Indians but to speak of the preservation of our race makes us racist Nazis. Support is growing and we are getting stronger. One day we will be free from the grip of Europe and we will restore pride again in our people so that they will no longer feel ashamed of who they are!

The BNP should remember that the crux of this debate was a disagreement over how best to fight against you.
Some of us think we should be able to take you to pieces in an intellectual debate.
Others think you shouldn't be allowed to speak at all at such public events, your views being so abhorrent that they don't deserve a platform.
Remember this: either way, both sides find you a racist, homophobic, fascist political grouping. We find your policies on immigration disgusting, and do not accept your historically inaccurate narrative on 'native peoples'.
The sides were in disagreement over how best to tackle you. Over the next weeks and months, you'll see many more students becoming involved in campaigns like Hope Not Hate, and others.

Nick Griffin is bright enough to know that such violence is counter-productive, but let's remember what he wrote in the Rune in 1995:
"The electors of Millwall did not back a post modernist rightist party but what they perceived to be a strong, disciplined organisation with the ability to back up its slogan 'Defend Rights for Whites' with well-directed boots and fists. When the crunch comes, power is the product of force and will, not of rational debate."
Is Griffin now a reformed character? Somehow I doubt it. He is just a more cunning strategist now.

I'm also concerned about the future, and I am determined to ensure that my children and grandchildren do not grow up in a society infected by the racist doctrines of the BNP.

Two things come out of this for me: firstly, Pete Winstanley's comments seem to be a far better informed and far more pleasant than those from BNP supporters.
Secondly, and more importantly, reading the whole debate right through in one go, I sense a slight reduction in hatred in the comments of Walker - perhaps due to the much more reasoned approach that Winstanley had towards him. Perhaps an argument for debate?
Having said that, despite supporting free speech, I would rather not grant free speech to the BNP because, as has been said before, they lost their right to free speech by having policies that seek to deny the rights of others. Those who claim that this is not the case haven't even got free thought, let alone free speech.

If we want to have a sensible debate about the successes and failures of multiculturalism, it is neither necessary nor desirable to invite the BNP, which approaches the subject from a blatantly racist standpoint.
Student debating societies which want to arrange debates with neo-Nazis would do well to consider a warning from Denmark. This letter appeared in the Guardian last October:
As Britain debates the BNP's appearance on Question Time, it would be a good idea to learn from developments elsewhere, before it's too late. Here in Denmark, where I have lived for 30 years, we have witnessed the systematic hijacking of a progressive and tolerant culture by the far right dressed in "respectable" sheep's clothing. In 10 years, Denmark has been transformed into a country where racism has become mainstream.
Free speech has protected hate speech, and opponents of censorship have consistently defended the rights of unscrupulous populists and incendiarists. When the media take this line, a very wicked circle is started: the inflammatory accusations of racists become self-fulfilling prophecies, as minorities are increasingly marginalised and excluded. Mainstream political parties, attempting to win back voters from the extreme right, make an endless series of concessions, attempting in vain to demonstrate understanding of the concerns of voters tempted by simple xenophobic policies. But the far right will always have a more extreme policy, and a new provocative proposal, which keeps them permanently centre stage in the media.
The "debate" about immigration – in reality a platform for populist racism – dominates politics, poisons serious dialogue, and guarantees only one thing: racist dominance of the media and the political agenda.

During Seaford's first board of education meeting Thursday night since Superstorm Sandy struck in late October, district leaders praised the work of its faculty, parents, students and community organizations for their hard work getting schools back in session following the epic natural disaster.
The re-opening of Seaford's schools began a week after the Oct. 29 storm with students from the then powerless Seaford Harbor School being moved to Seaford Manor School before returning to full operation on Nov. 13. Superintendent Brian Conboy said during Thursday's school board meeting that parents, staff and students from both elementary schools handled the temporary merger well and he received great feedback in the days following.
"I don' think I ever could have envisioned the situation that we've been in the last 18 or so days," said Conboy during his administrative report at Thursday's night's school board meeting held at Seaford Harbor School. "We were in it together and we survived it together and we will continue to move forward together."
John Striffolino, Seaford's assistant superintendent for curriculum, instruction and personnel, explained how teachers from both elementary schools worked tirelessly leading up to the re-opening by making name tags for all students.
"It was an amazing site to see with the cooperation of everyone pitching in," Striffolino said. "I am very proud to be a part of this community."

Brian Fagan, president of the Seaford Board o Education, also applauded the efforts of everyone involved in the aftermath of the storm including those who helped the trustees set up a warming center in the high school during the weekend of Nov. 2-3. Fagan said while the process of getting schools back into operation went smooth, the district's emergency procedures will be discussed next month to see if there are ways to enhance them in future storms.
Seaford Interim Assistant Superintendent for Business Alan Phillips said he met with representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency Thursday about efforts to get the district money for any storm-related funds.
"As we begin to rebuild our lives and our homes, we will never forget how the community came together as one and helped each other," said Seaford Harbor School PTA President Deanine Nagengast in a prepared statement during Thursday's school board meeting. "The outpouring of support is nothing short of an outstanding effort by all. We are so proud to a part of a wonderful caring community such as Seaford."

Recipe: Chickpea and Basil Salad
This simple vegan salad of chickpeas, chopped veggies, and herbs, courtesy of nutritionist Mark McDonald, author of "Body Confidence," will have your guests chattering about the fresh flavor for days!
Chickpea and Basil Salad
Makes: 7 servings
For the Dressing:
1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced into a paste
Small pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
For the Salad:
2 28-ounce cans chickpeas (4 cups), drained and rinsed
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped small
1 very small red onion, finely chopped
Small handful of fresh basil, roughly chopped
1/8 cup (about 10) fresh, high quality Kalamata olives, pitted, roughly chopped
1. In a small bowl, whisk together first 6 ingredients for the dressing and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, toss together remaining ingredients for the salad except for the olives. Pour the dressing into the bean and vegetable mixture and toss well. Gently fold in the black olives; over-mixing will cause the olives to color the remaining ingredients black, so make sure to add the olives last and toss gently.

With a choice of two different reasons to "hate" this man, I would bet the Feds are going to be investigating soon, if they aren't there already.
In a scene reminiscent of the crimes dramatized in Mississippi Burning and other hate crimes from the 1960′s perpetrated against Blacks in the South, Marco McMillian, a mayoral candidate for Clarksdale, Mississippi was found dead near a Mississippi River levee. McMillian's death is being investigated as a homicide, and one person has already been taken into custody.
One resident, Dennis Thomas, stated "There's a lot of people upset about it. Why would somebody want to do something like that to somebody of that caliber? He was a highly respected person in town."
McMillian's campaign spokesman Jarod Keith noted that McMillian was likely the first openly gay man to have a viable shot at winning public office in the state despite being a Black, gay man and a Democrat. McMillian has a lot of connections to some prominent Democrats including President Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton and Civil Rights icon Representative John Lewis of Georgia.
Coahoma County Coroner Scotty Meredith said that McMillian's body was found near the levee between Sherard and Rena Lara and that his remains were sent to Jackson for autopsy. Meredith has declined to speculate as to cause of death.
Authorities had been looking for McMillian since a man crashed McMillian's SUV into another vehicle on US Highway 49. McMillian was not in the vehicle at the time of the crash.
McMillian was focused on trying to combat the rampant poverty of the Mississippi Delta.
The Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund and Institute tweeted "Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Marco McMillian, one of the 1st viable openly (hash)LGBT candidates in Mississippi." His campaign said that words cannot describe "our grief at the loss of our dear friend. We remember Marco as a bold and passionate public servant, whose faith informed every aspect of his life."

Dynamic Interference, LLC, is an audio services company for visual media and is owned by Shaun Farley, MPSE.
One of his childhood heroes was Michael Winslow (aka Motor Mouth Jones from the Police Academy movies); so in retrospect, his choice in career path probably isn't all that surprising. Walking around and imitating the sounds and noises that you hear everyday is a little awkward socially. So, he started doing the next best thing…recording, editing and mixing them.
After spending a few years exploring the "live" side of the audio industry, Shaun first stepped into a recording studio in 2002. He took his first post-production editing gig in 2004, at WGBH Boston, and has never looked back. His career has been focused on television and film, but there's been a bit of radio and interactive that's crept in over the years as well. Until recently, he was employed as an in-house sound editor and re-recording mixer at Teleproductions International (TPI), where he edited and mixed for internationally distributed television programming; working on both original programs for TPI, and helping the occasional neglected production feel a little more loved. Since the company's closing, Shaun has been working as a freelance sound editor and is always itching to find new and exciting challenges.
Shaun is also very involved in the professional community. He is an active member of the MPSE, has presented at AES, been published in Game Developer Magazine, and was a special presenter at The Smithsonian in November of 2013. He can be found online at DesigningSound.org (where he is a contributing editor), waxing conversational on SocialSoundDesign.com, or struggling to be concise on Twitter @DynInterference. He maintains another blog loaded with audio nerditude here…if you're into that kind of thing.

Before you go bargain hunting, make sure no one steals your holiday cheer.
The holiday shopping season is the biggest time of the year for credit card use, but it's also the busiest time for thieves.
On Wednesday, West Virginia's attorney general was at Taylor Books in Charleston, talking to consumers about how to protect themselves against credit card fraud.
The biggest tip, keep records.
Darrell McGraw, West Virginia Attorney General, said, "When you're shopping keep a close eye on credit card. Protect themselves only use credit cards in little machines, record transaction. Then put it back in your pocket."
Experts also say to make sure you fill out the receipt completely.
Businesses should always make sure the card is signed.
Also, the clerk should ask for a photo ID.

MOOERS — Eloi Duguay has less than a month to clear away the remains of the former funeral parlor/apartment building here that collapsed on Jan. 11.
If he doesn't, Town of Mooers Code Enforcement Officer Jess Dixon said, the municipality will get the job done and add the cost to the St. Hubert, Quebec, man's property taxes.
And once the bill comes from Luck Brothers for knocking down the structure — an emergency measure ordered by Town Supervisor Jeff Menard that night — Duguay will be assessed that cost, too.
When one wall and more than half of the roof gave way, spilling onto the shoulder of Route 11, the remaining structure looked far from stable, the supervisor said.
"It was just kind of teetering there."
Duguay bought the three-story brick building, which had housed E.F. Drown Funeral Home and four apartments, on Aug. 10, 2012, for $11,500, knowing his investment had serious issues, Dixon said.
"I condemned it mid-sale."
The structure, erected in 1950, had been vacant for a couple of years; the funeral business moved out six or seven years ago, Menard said.
The Clinton County Real Property website lists its condition as "poor."
Duguay had paid the taxes on the place in 2013, the Treasurer's Office said; no information was yet available on the 2014 amounts.
Dixon said Duguay never told him what he planned for the structure, only that he was looking for investors.
And, the code enforcement officer said, "he kept asking for a certificate of occupancy."
That wasn't going to happen, Dixon said, unless the building proved safe, with numerous issues remediated.
Once Duguay owned the property, Dixon required him to provide an engineer's report listing the repairs needed to stabilize the building.
"It was a cursory list," the code officer said, but it was a start.

The Hypnosis Cure
Deep Relaxation
Four words you most likely won't hear when you visit a hypnotherapist: You are getting sleepy. "People imagine that they're going to be in a coma and can't move or remember anything afterward," says Jean Fain, a psychotherapist who teaches hypnosis at Harvard Medical School. "It's more like sitting in front of a fireplace where you're focused and relaxed." Most sessions last 30 to 60 minutes and begin with a conversation so the hypnotherapist can pinpoint the best types of suggestions and imagery for you. Then you'll be asked to close your eyes or to look at a point on the ceiling and take deep breaths while the therapist guides your mind to a place you've chosen. Once you have entered a trance, suggestions begin, geared toward your goal: Starting today you will savor every bite of food and eat only until you're comfortably full.... When you feel the urge to scratch your rash, you will place your hand lightly on the spot and feel soothing sensations flow from your fingers.
Often a hypnotherapist will suggest actions you can perform to counter the problem. "When someone feels an attack of irritable bowel syndrome coming on, for instance, we tell them to put their hand on their abdomen, feel it become warm and slow the cycle down so they don't have to run off to the bathroom," says Charlene Williams, PhD, a psychologist and the clinical program coordinator of the Mind-Body Medicine Group at UCLA. Fain sometimes suggests to weight-control patients that whenever they put thumb and forefinger together they will automatically feel relaxed and more in control of their eating. After the session -- you may or may not remember all that happened -- you'll likely go home with a recording. Practice helps cement suggestions and, if you need a refresher, you can just pop in the recording. Pat Carroll, of Meriden, Connecticut, takes a portable tape player and headphones with her every time she goes to the dentist.
After almost dying from an allergic reaction to antibiotics while having her wisdom teeth removed, Carroll developed such a powerful fear of the dentist that her husband had to literally carry her into the office. She uses the tape to put herself into a trance while the dentist works on her.
Expect to pay $100 to $250 per session for hypnosis from someone with an MD, PhD, or other professional degree. The number of treatments you may need will vary depending on your problem and response to the therapy.
And be aware that hypnosis is far from a cure-all, especially for its most popular uses: pain management, weight loss, and quitting smoking. Only a few studies have found that people lose more weight with hypnosis than without. While some research shows that hypnosis works better against smoking than a nicotine patch, the success rate is still low. One study comparing the effect of a patch alone to using the patch plus hypnosis found that 24 percent of the combination-therapy group remained nonsmokers after a year (for the patch-alone group it was 16 percent).
So when is hypnosis worth the time and money? If you're very motivated to achieve your goal, believe hypnosis can work for you, and can imagine how it would feel to be free of your problem. "Those are the three main ingredients for success," says Dr. Gurgevich.
