Sooner or later- probably sooner -- Americans will be left with two choices: freedom or a safety at the mercy of bureaucrats who will have a monopoly on force. I know this seems melodramatic and even paranoid, but I am not saying that banning assault rifles will result to complete loss of freedom. I am saying it will never be enough. Enough will be when the word "gun" becomes illegal. Then they'll find something else to ban...because people will still hurt one another.
Things have changed. For whatever reason(s), people are going crazy. As much as we would like, things will never be the same again. They never are.
Safety First
For people who think safety can be achieved without changing human behavior and aren't particularly aware (or are incredibly naïve) of the atrocities committed by governments who've had a monopoly on force, gun bans and/or more control seem like good ideas. To a certain degree, I suppose I agree. The president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence stated on CNN that forty percent of gun buyers do so without a having their background checked (I must say, I am highly suspicious of this claim, seeing as how every time I've purchased a firearm, I had to wait while the dealer called the FBI to make sure I am not a lunatic, and I've never heard any different from other gun owners). So check our background. I won't argue with that. I don't want lunatics in possession of firepower either. And if you can efficiently and systematically give people some form of a psychiatric evaluation, I'm not sure I disagree with that either. But I can't help but believe such measures will somehow be misconducted or be completely useless, seeing as how it is nearly impossible- unless the individual is growling and trying to bite your face off during the evaluation- to determine if someone is actually crazy.
Another point anti-gunners have is the power street weapons have these days (it's too much). Large-capacity clips were obviously not the case when the Bill OF Rights was being put together. But do we have so little faith in ourselves and so much in other human beings that we think they are far more capable of handling so much more power than us? (I know for many the answer is a resounding "Yes!") Let's be serious. Anybody remember Abu Ghraib? You know… where soldiers peed on detainees. Ya. That's who would have significantly more firepower than us. Detainee-peeing soldiers. Or what about the numerous scandals which have brought to light thousands of corrupt police officers? (See Operation Tow Scam, Rampart Scandal, The Kathryn Johnson shooting, and many others for just a taste. In fact, I'm sure by the time you read this, there will be a fresh batch of scandals all ready to outrage you.)
Okay. I change my mind. Any way you slice it, gun bans are a terrible idea. Gun bans seems like an ideal concept… if we lived in an ideal world. But we don't. Just because someone lays his weapons down and pretends to live in a world where if we go first, the lunatic will follow, does not mean Lunatic will follow. He does not play by the same rules we do. The world is a mean place. It's true. I promise you. And since it is a mean place, people of all walks of life and degrees of power will want to hurt you. It has always been the case and will always continue to be so.
Since we don't live in a fluffy world where pretty ideas work because things always go exactly as we want it to, yet we've determined that things can't be the same anymore, What are we to do?
If we want to live in a world where we will be free to express our wacky views and worship whatever or whomever it is we want without the fear or threat of a entity more powerful than us, we will have to give up the freedom to not carry… as in, a firearm. I know this seems preposterous to a generation who has been told over and over that guns have a mind of their own, and it is a wicked little mind who pulls its own trigger and people should be highly intimidated by Mr. Mean Gun because he will turn himself around and blow your face away if you piss him off. But I assure you, it's a great idea. Ask the Swiss and the Israelis (those people are born with a firearm in their hands). They have shooting tournaments at carnivals. Did I mention they have ridiculously low crime rates?
A teacher and the principle of Sandy Hook both lunged at the Newtown lunatic in attempts to stop him. Who's to say that, had either one of those staff members been carrying, the killing wouldn't have been greatly reduced, if not completely deterred?
We must accept that we have created a world where the fear of God Almighty no longer exists because we (media and education systems) have told people that is the case; God doesn't exist. So, if potential crazies don't fear their Maker, they must fear something else. It's obviously not going to be the authorities.
So, it's going to have to be me and you.
I want the fear of my .380 to constantly stab at the mind of every potential whack job who wants to senselessly harm anyone. I want the fear of my sister's teacher's .45 to be a constant nag in the mind of any poor soul whose thought has a though considering hurting innocent people. I want the fear of your magnum or .38 Special to lie in the frontal lobe of every thug walking the street and looking for easy prey; I want scum to know there is no easy prey. We are sick and tired of being portrayed as weak.
And if they don't develop that fear, that's fine because my bullets aren't prejudiced.
Lastly, I want the fear of all 300 million plus American-owned firearms to be on the mind of any potential group of tyrants who don't think a person's freedom is more important than blind, unquestionable submission to the State. I love America and I think the many great things the U.S. has done for human rights and humanitarian causes all over the world is nothing less than amazing. But the reality is that Government is not a single-minded entity. It can, as it has in the past, be taken over and turned on its own people. And unlike the hundreds who have been mercilessly killed by random acts of horrific violence, when Mr. State gets to getting off rounds, the damage ends up in the MILLIONS.
Yes. Something has to be done. But if you think disarming law-abiding citizens and leaving all the fire power to our pee-happy government employees and thugs is the answer, then I will leave you with a few reminders of damage done by complete power.
Here's a short list of government mass murder carried out throughout history, almost always immediately following the disarmament of the public.
50+ million dead: Mao Ze-Dong (China, 1958-61 and 1966-69, Tibet 1949-50)

2+ million dead: Ismail Enver (Turkey, 1915-22)
1.7 million dead: Pol Pot (Cambodia, 1975-79)
1.6 million dead: Kim Il Sung (North Korea, 1948-94)
1.5 million dead: Menghistu (Ethiopia, 1975-78)
1 million dead: Yakubu Gowon (Biafra, 1967-1970)
900,000 dead: Leonid Brezhnev (Afghanistan, 1979-1982)

This probably would have been a good read if it was 7 paragraphs shorter. Get to the point. What are you trying to say? Guns are good? bad?

This article contains so many inaccuracies that it is hard to know where to start. So I'll pick just one, Hitler did not touch the gun laws in Germany until 1938 after being in power for about four years. Than the only change to the gun laws was to prohibit Jews from owning them.Also, how does he think all the Russians survived and hunted furs in Siberia? I believe they had fire arms. This article is poorly regurgitated propaganda from the NRA.
Paul L. Dragu
12:31 pm on Saturday, December 22, 2012
What does it matter WHEN Hitler touched the gun laws? (Ironically Obama is coming up on 4 years of power) Bottom line is he unarmed the people he massacred; or is the Holocaust NRA propaganda as well? You said "the only change" as if it is some minor footnote of history that Hitler made one little bitty change which happened to kill a minuscule 13 MILLION Jews.You might want to check your history instead of jumping to a conclusion based on the fact that the 3 people who lived on the equivalent of Alaska (Siberia). had guns. In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million people were rounded up and exterminated. Just because you use demeaning words such as "propaganda" and "regurgitated" does not change facts and it sure does not negate reason. Good points with facts are regurgitated precisely because they are facts, and facets of reason.

Guns for hunting and defending a family home is reasonable and should not be outlawed. Guns for hobbyists who enjoy collecting seems reasonable also.
What is not reasonable is the fact that children ages 5-14 are 13 times more likely to die from guns than in other industrialized nations.
Gun restrictions won't eliminate massacres at the hands of the mentally ill just like seat belt laws and cracking down on drunk drivers can't eliminate motor vehicle deaths. Still, something needs to be done to reduce murders and other nations have demonstrated that fewer guns result in fewer gun deaths. No other nation has provided evidence that having armed defenders in schools can reduce gun deaths.

Lets play follow the money and responsibility for the massacre at Sandy Hook.
The military-style assault weapon used to kill most of the victims in last week's Sandy Hook elementary school massacre in Connecticut was a Bushmaster XM-15 .223 caliber rifle, manufactured by Bushmaster Firearms International LLC, which is owned by the Freedom Group of Madison, N.C. Cerberus Capital Management is a the private equity firm that owns the Freedom Group -based in New York City, Cerberus is owned by billionaire financier Stephen A. Feinberg. Freedom Group is the world's largest manufacturer of commercial firearms, ammunition and accessories, owning brands that in addition to Bushmaster include Remington, DPMS/Panther Arms, Marlin, H&R, The Parker Gun, Advanced Armament Corp., Dakota Arms, Para USA, Barnes Bullets and TAPCO.
Despite the sluggish economy, the Freedom Group has been doing well, with sales up 20 percent in the third quarter of this year compared to the same period last year, according to its third-quarter financial report. Sales made to Arkansas-based Wal-Mart accounts for a substantial portion of the company's total sales at about 13 percent.
George Kollitides, the chair and interim CEO of the Freedom Group, is a major Republican donor. A former managing director for Cerberus, he contributed $10,000 to the Republican National Committee in October and $2,500 to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign in May.

You can't be serious. I'm not sure such inverted logic even merits a response. I'll play this game.
Adam Lanza lived in Connecticut, where Mrs. Butterworth got her start. That means that all Connecticut residents pay no taxes on Mrs. Butterworth goods, making it more probable that Adam had Mrs. Butterworth pancakes the morning of. Now, neurological studies have shown that certain synthetic ingredients in Mrs. Butterworth's flour have hints of toxins capable of redirecting brain pathways. Adam had those dangerous pancakes, went postal, and did the unthinkable. Clearly this is MRrs. Butterworth's fault because they make tons of money and contributed to Reagan's campaign. Or we can blame the car maker the killer drove,or the tires on the car for not blowing before he got to the school. Or how about we blame the door maker of the door the killer shot to get into the school? Those door companies make tons of money because everyone buys doors. And I bet they contribute to parties other than democrat as well.

I must have well-behaved guns, including my Bushmaster M-4. I've owned may of them for a large part of my 60 years, and they've never tried to hurt anyone or anything. Once a gun has been proven to misbehave, it should be confiscated by the Imperial Federal Government and destroyed. Additionally the owner of any gun which misbehaves should be generously compensated by the evil gun manufacturer.
Chris Bailey

George Wilson, you need to check your facts. An AR style rifle was NOT used to murder the children at Sandy Hook, the criminal used only handguns. In the medias rush to vilify guns as being bad they screwed the pooch again. Liberal fools; blinded by their idealism. Where are the pragmatic people?

This light-filled, en plein air scene is one of twenty-four landscapes that Monet painted during his sojourn in the Netherlands in 1871. Painted near the village of Zaandam, the Achterzaan river occupies the foreground of the painting while windmills and industrial buildings can be seen in the distant background. The water reflects the multi-colored houses and willow trees that line the river bank as well as a white sail boat that floats along the water. A woman dressed in a white diaphanous gown stands beneath a willow tree on the left, gazing by the water. Employing a distinctly blonde color palette reminiscent of that used by landscape painter Corot, Monet renders this scene with attention to atmospheric detail and palpable light. This painting also evokes a sense of leisure and pastoral beauty typical of Dutch seventeenth century paintings that Monet would have seen during his stay in Holland. The artist's color palette, portrayal of leisurely pursuits, and increasing attention to the surface of the canvas—all practices that Monet explored during his stay in Holland—were significant and influential in the development of his increasingly modern approach to painting.Monet postdated this work, marking the canvas in his studio in the year after it was painted. The fact that Monet held on to the canvas for many years after he completed it contributes to the pristine condition of the unlined, unvarnished painting.

ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY, N.Y. -- Some of the charges against a North Country man accused of digging up land at the former GM plant in Massena have been dismissed. Earlier this week, a Saint Lawrence County judge dismissed two of the three charges against Larry Thompson, 57.
Authorities said Thompson, a member of the Onkehonwe Signatory Tribe, dug up the land with an excavator and dropped contaminated soil at the feet of New York State Troopers in August. In dropping charges of resisting arrest and reckless endangerment, the judge ruled Thompson didn't resist and that prosecutors didn't prove the soil presented a danger. Thompson still faces a criminal mischief charge.

From corporate suit to
hero in fourteen months, Jim
O'Shea has had quite a ride in Los Angeles. Coming in to the relief of the new
publisher, David Hiller, O'Shea was going to be
the Tribune Co.'s
man in the LA Times news room. His successes in
Chicago were the CV he would use to
bludgeon the Angelinos to submit to their Midwest Gaultiers.
But, after 14 months
something has gone wrong. The Stockholm syndrome or something akin
to it has taken its toll. Like water dripping from the aquifer,
being in LA wore down the Trib's man and he joined the
No more growth through a
thousand cuts, diminishing the product, O'Shea
told the Times newsroom, the product must grow through
strategic investment. O'Shea listed several successful initiatives
in his 14 months as overseer including a style section and a
substantial increase in web traffic.
Because they no longer saw
eye-to-eye, O'Shea, Hiller's man, is now out of a job. O'Shea is
blaming the corporate bean counters, presumably from Chicago, for
the fiasco. They are administering voodoo in the pursuit of profits
without understanding the dark arts of journalism, O'Shea
And, we'll listen to
O'Shea because the enlightened and well-informed pundits who
criticize Tribune Co for it
rapaciousness will fete him. And we will listen, perhaps, wondering
how it is that in three years, four top editorial positions have
turned over at the LA Times.
But, right now, reading
O'Shea's remarks, I don't see a leader with a plan for survival.
And that's what newspapers need right now.
[Late edit: I never felt comfortable leaving that critique of O'Shea hanging there. For one thing, if O'Shea was having as great a year as he claimed, why hadn't Hiller been able to find the money to fund the operation to the tune of $3 million for another year? And then there were the claims of growth, which nagged at me. Here is another take that seems more in line with the prevailing "insiders" view of what has happened at the LA Times: LINK HERE to West Side Story.]

BCGR - Family Makeover (Part 2)
By: Chris Whited, KRBC News
Updated: March 31, 2009
Scott Bloomquist told us that "previously on a windy day, you could see the curtains wafting sometimes from the breeze." That's why the Green Team was called in. In our last report you saw team members caulking and sealing. They did what they could to make the big house more energy efficient. The changes cost about $800.00
Danna Siepel, a Housing Energy Director with the Green Team told us "since we're starting with brisker weather now, they should see a savings within 4-5 months. So by the end of the season, they should probably recoup those costs." We didn't wait four or five months. One month later temperatures had fallen and leaves were dropping. The season wasn't the only thing that changed.
The Bloomquists started to see energy savings. In fact their electric usage was cut in half. Owner Laura Bloomquist noted that "[I] had checked it just a couple days ago and it was only like at 690-kilowatts that we had used when last month it was at 1245." In just a month the Bloomquist's have shaved $80.00from their utility bills. At that rate the improvements will pay for themselves in less than a year.

MARTIN, Tenn. – Mike Liabo led four University of Tennessee at Martin players in double-figures this evening as the Skyhawks never trailed in a 92-58 victory over Lyon College at the Kathleen and Tom Elam Center.
Cracking the starting lineup for the first time since the season-opener at Arkansas-Little Rock, Liabo poured in a season-high 25 points in 25 minutes this evening thanks to a career-high five 3-pointers. Overall, the junior from Naples, Fla. sank nine of his 17 shot attempts to go along with three assists, two rebounds and a steal.
Justin Childs tallied 14 points, five rebounds, four steals and three assists, while Tobias Dowdell (career-best 13 points and four steals) and Bobby Jones (13 points, three 3-pointers) also reached double-digits in the scoring column. UT Martin also received a career-high eight assists, six assists and four steals out of freshman Dee Oldham in his first career start tonight.
The Skyhawks (2-3) amassed season-highs in three-pointers (nine), assists (26), steals (17) this evening while forcing Lyon into 24 turnovers. UT Martin led 48-28 at the half thanks to a 60 percent shooting effort (18-for-30) in the game's first 20 minutes.
Lyon College – an NAIA school out of Batesville, Ark. – was led by Kendall Leeks' 11 points off the bench.
All 11 UT Martin players who were dressed out contributed to the Skyhawk victory this evening.
"We wanted to play a lot of guys tonight," UT Martin head coach Jason James said. "We tell our guys all the time when you go in the game – even if you're not scoring – it's an audition. You're being evaluated – you can earn minutes at that point in the game. You need to play hard, like it's the first five minutes instead of the last five minutes of the game. And for the most part, I thought we did that."
Childs got the Skyhawks off to a great start – accounting for the first five UT Martin points. The duo of Liabo and Myles Taylor then combined to score each of the Skyhawks' next 11 points, allowing UT Martin to build a 16-7 lead with 13:27 to go in the first half.
An 8-0 Skyhawk run resulted in the first double-digit lead for the Skyhawks (24-11) at the 9:34 mark. Lyon College got within seven points before back-to-back trifectas by Liabo and Childs pushed UT Martin's lead back out to 11 with just under seven minutes remaining in the half.
A layup by Liabo at the 2:12 mark ignited an 11-2 Skyhawk run to close out the half, capped off by an emphatic buzzer-beating dunk by Dowdell that gave UT Martin a 20-point edge.
Liabo (17 points) and Childs (12) paced the Skyhawks at the break, while Rickey Thomas compiled seven points to lead the Scots.
Lyon College was responsible for the first two points of the second half before UT Martin quickly piled on seven unanswered point to lead 55-30 after a Jones trey at the 15:20 mark. That began a series of seven straight points by Jones, followed by an old-fashioned three-point play by Dowdell to make the score 65-34 with 12:36 remaining.
The Scots followed with a 9-2 run but another Jones trifecta pushed the Skyhawk advantage back out to 27 midway through the second half.
Lyon College would not get any closer than 23 points the rest of the way, as Liabo scored eight straight points in a span of 1:01 shortly thereafter to help put the game away. A layup by Pierre Mopo with 25 seconds left to play gave UT Martin its biggest lead of the night at 92-56.
The Skyhawks will take some time off for the Thanksgiving holiday before returning to the court on Saturday, Nov. 24 when they travel to Bradley. Tip-off time from Peoria, Ill. is scheduled for 1 p.m.

On your first trip to Zurich, discover the charm of Switzerland's largest city from the plush boutiques of the cobbled Altstadt (Old Town) to the picture-postcard views of Lake Zurich. Before long you'll be drawn back to Zurich to learn about the history of Dadaism art at the Cabaret Voltaire exhibition centre and to party in lively Zurich-West.
From Lake Zurich where you can see the snow-dusted Swiss Alps on a clear day, follow the Limmat River north as it splits Zurich in two. Head to Zurich's Left Bank for outdoor cafes and galleries in the medieval Altstadt, and designer boutiques along Bahnhofstrasse. You'll find artists' workshops in former fishing quarter Schipfe. Step across to the Right Bank to glimpse 12th-century Grossmnster church's spires or to relax on cobbled Neumarkt square. Edge south-east for botanical gardens and lakefront restaurants in Riesbach. Or head north-west to up-and-coming Zurich-West for world cuisine and Zurich's hottest nightlife.
Get your bearings from Lindenhof terrace, where locals play chess under the linden trees. Then squeeze through the cobblestone lanes of the Altstadt, pausing to buy hand-decorated chocolates. Soon you'll reach the Limmat River and Schipfe, the medieval fishing district now home to arty boutiques and workshops. Marvel at Fraumnster Church's intricate stained-glass windows, or Giacometti masterpieces at the vast Kunsthaus Zurich art gallery. Feast on Swiss rsti potatoes at a traditional wood-beamed beer hall.
If you love Impressionist art, see Czanne and Renoir originals at the Foundation E G Bhrle Collection, housed in a vine-clad villa. Admire controversial works at former brewery Kunsthalle Zurich or pioneering graphic art at the cuboid Museum of Design Zurich. Explore the roots of the anti-war Dada movement that influenced Surrealism, at the Cabaret Voltaire exhibition centre in Zurich's Altstadt. Buy Swiss cheeses at Brkliplatz market for a lazy picnic on the banks of Lake Zurich then spend the evening with Zurich's trendsetters in Zurich-West's lively lounge bars.
Switzerland's intercontinental air hub is a favourite of shoppers and plane-spotters alike. More than 20 million passengers pass through the stylishly revamped airport each year. Central Zurich is only 12km (8 miles) away, a 10-minute train ride.

Behavioral: Tailored Information Program for Safer Sex
The proposed study will involve the development and pilot testing of an interactive computerized tailored intervention program for HIV/STI prevention among at-risk heterosexually active African-American STI clinic patients, aged 18-29. The Attitude-Social-Influence Efficacy model will serve as a conceptual foundation for the intervention and tailored feedback, which will assess and give feedback to participants separately for main/steady and other/casual partners. Individual modules will be developed for key theoretical concepts and subsequently tied together into an integrated system. The tailored feedback will additionally be enhanced by crafting intervention messages to be high in message sensation value and by developing interactive intervention activities for skill-building, which will be guided by both Social Cognitive Theory and skills training principles. The computerized intervention will be developed and guided using data collected from the target audience to ensure an empirically-based approach to tailoring. The intervention will also be developed with input from the target audience in order to maximize the appropriateness and persuasiveness of the feedback and the program, including interactive components. The final year of the project will entail a pilot test of the intervention in order to gather preliminary data on the acceptability and efficacy of such an intervention for increasing safer sexual behaviors among at-risk heterosexually active African-Americans.
The specific aims of the study are: 1) to develop tailored feedback on HIV/STI prevention based on the ASE model, including condom attitudes, social influences, self-efficacy including communication / negotiation skills, partner and behavioral risk, correct condom use, and condom stages of change; 2) to enhance the delivery of the tailored messages using sensation-seeking targeting (SENTAR) and skill-building using interactive activities guided by Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) and skills training principles; 3) to tie the individual theoretical modules together and develop a computerized intervention program for HIV/STI prevention, which provides tailored risk reduction messages to participants based upon an assessment of participant characteristics; 4) to develop empirically sound cutpoints, specific to the target audience, to guide the message tailoring; and 5) in a wait-list control group design, to pilot test the intervention for acceptability and efficacy in increasing condom use with main and casual partners among at-risk heterosexually active African-Americans, relative to a "usual care" comparison condition.

It's not just the soft glow of candlelight, the array of floral sprays, or even the pampering spa treatments that keep clients coming back to Laka Skin Care & Spa. They come for the salon's holistic treatments, backed by the science of Nobel Prize–winning research. The salon's staff is trained in everything from facial reflexology to the salon's three signature facials—all of which use 24-karat gold to brighten and cleanse skin.
What really sets the spa's treatments apart are the optional add-ons. The house brand of aromatherapy, 21 Drops, infuses facials and massages with healing essential oils to entertain noses. Heated amethyst mats detoxify both body and mind while clients relax on them.
Situated inside the Outrigger Luana Waikiki Hotel, the sleek contemporary interior of Ville De Coco envelops visitors in a tranquil environment while staff members administer customized pampering services. You can get a traditional Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage in a private room, or climb into a pillow-lined pedicure chair to soak your feet in warm tubs filled with aromatic salts.
Steamy saunas and cool pools share space with an in-house salon, massage parlor, and nail studio at Herbal Spa Sauna & Salon, which has separate facilites for men and women. The journey through saunas and baths is ordered strategically for optimal effect, beginning with a hot-tub dip to calm muscles and relax minds. After a sojourn in the steam sauna opens pores and releases tension, the dry sauna heats cores with controlled 210-degree coals to ease muscles and a bath cools down bodies before limber limbs meditate in a jade room. A Himalayan salt sauna uses heat to release the minerals found in salt to benefit respiratory systems, reduce stress, and improve skin health.
Over at the salon, aestheticians work out any lingering stresses with body scrubs, massages, and pedicures that outfit toes with bright colors before their next trip into pitch-black shoe caves. Staffers stock locker rooms with complimentary robes, ice water, and shower products to ensure pleasant transitions to and from the tranquil retreat.
Paradise Massages & Spa's therapists combine tailored massage strokes with essential oils that evoke the relaxing scents of the tropics. During lomilomi massages inspired by Hawaii's own holistic healing traditions, they use their hands, forearms, and elbows to rhythmically soothe muscles. Another island-inspired treatment, the hot-lava massage, employs heated stones to stimulate circulation and ease the daily stresses of living inside an active volcano. The staff's expertise extends beyond sore backs and shoulders; their customized facials, for example, open pores with a blast of soothing steam before moisturizing skin with a healing mask and relaxing frown lines with a facial massage.
Gentle music breezes past the salmon walls at Sophisticated Facial & Nail Spa, where black, leather massage chairs rest on natural-wood floors. Nail technicians with a keen eye for artistry paint fingernails with such specialty designs as zebra print, flowers, butterflies, and near-perfect replicas of toenails. Dermalogica products nourish visages during a half-dozen different 90-minute facials, which range from an oil-and-acne treatment that uses high-frequency currents to kill bacteria to an anti-aging facial powered by hydroxyl-acid exfoliation. Private treatment rooms also host waxing procedures that leave skin smooth and hairless for longer than razors, tweezers, or stern lectures do.
Pure Elements Salon & Spa uses all-natural Aveda products on clients from head to toe. The company also follows through with Aveda's green mission to beautify without harming the earth. The skilled staff members peruse Aveda's robust selection of eco-consciously harvested serums, shampoos, and lotions as they prepare for a range of spa services that includes hair, skin, massage, makeup, and nail treatments for both men and women. Nail technicians exfoliate feet with an all-natural sea-salt scrub before polishing toes. Massage therapists use natural elements during the hydra-stone massage, which, as its name suggests, incorporates both water and hot stones to make muscles as loose as a procrastination club's meeting times. Aestheticians slough dulling dead skin cells from the face with microdermabrasion, facials, and glycolic peels. Clients can mix and match a combination of Pure Elements' services to build extra-long spa packages or bridal packages to spiff up ladies on their big days.

Tug Valley received the No. 1 seed in the Class A, Region IV, Section 2 tournament.
The Panthers will play the winner of the Man-Montcalm game, which was played on Saturday night. Tug Valley will host that semi-final game on Tuesday night at the TVHS gym at Naugatuck. Game time is 7:00 p.m.
The Panthers were ranked No.1 in the final Associated Press poll. They head into the tournament as the defending Class Double A champs, however they will be playing in the Class A tourney this year.
Tug Valley had to drop to Class A this season once the new WVSSAC alignment figures were released. This means the Panthers will have new teams in their sectional and regional tournament play for the upcoming basketball tournaments.
Tug Valley was placed in Section 1, Region III in Class A. They have Greater Beckley Christian, Man, Montcalm, Sherman and Van in their section.
The other teams in Section 2 of Tug Valley's region are Fayetteville, Greenbrier West, Meadow Bridge, Midland Trail, Richwood and Valley of Fayette.
Tug Valley has tried to schedule some of the teams in their region, but in order to play a tough schedule, they did not add some of those Class A squads. Instead the Panthers played teams like Logan, Huntington and Ashland, Ky.
Coach Garland "Rabbit" Thompson and his staff hope to win back to back titles for Tug Valley. Magnolia, one of the top Class AA teams last year, also dropped down to the smaller class this season. They return several of their starters.
It is common knowledge that many of the private schools such as Charleston Catholic, Wheeling Central Catholic, Parkersburg Catholic, Greater Beckley Christian, Weirton Madonna, St. Joe of Huntington and others play in Class A and they usually have some skilled basketball teams.
Class A, REGION 3
No. 6 Van at No. 3 Sherman, 7 p.m.;
No. 5 Montcalm at No. 4 Man, 7 p.m.
Sherman-Van winner at No. 2 Greater Beckley Christian, 7 p.m.;
Man-Montcalm winner at No. 1 Tug Valley, 7 p.m.
Championship at higher seed , 7 p.m.
No. 5 Meadow Bridge at No. 4 Richwood;
No. 6 Fayetteville at No. 3 Midland Trail
Richwood-Meadow Bridge winner at No. 1 Valley Fayette;
Midland Trail-Fayetteville winner at No. 2 Greenbrier West
Championship at higher seed

What's the first place you go to on Black Friday?
For shopaholics, Black Friday is the Main Event. The Holy Grail. The day they wait for all year. With cash and credit in hand, die-hard bargainistas hit the stores, looking for the best deals and the perfect gift for everyone on their list.
But what stores do they hit first? Is it just about saving money or do savvy shoppers pay less attention to cost than aesthetics, helpful staff and cleanliness? Out of the top bargain retailers: Wal-Mart, Target and Kmart, which store shines and lures in black-belt shoppers?
Our experts weigh in on why they choose to go where they go and spend their hard-earned holiday cash. Do you agree? What is your favorite discount retailer? Is price the most important factor or do you look at other factors when you choose where to spend?
From my experience, Target always has helpful employees while Wal-Mart never does and I have found Kmart to be hit-or-miss. Target believes customer is always right, offers its own coupons online and does price-matching. Wal-Mart always seems to have long checkout lines. In the end, what sways me and makes me choose Target is the organization, helpfulness and customer service there -- it far outweighs any cost savings I might find at Wal-Mart.
I have found Wal-Mart to outshine Target in many areas – especially online, with its availability of items and low shipping costs. Target requires you to have one of its credit or debit cards for most shipping deals. I scored black pants for school on Walmart.com after failing to find them elsewhere in the area. They shipped for only $0.97.
Also, I think some of Target's clothing is very poor quality, especially in the men's section. For movie buffs, Wal-Mart can't be beat with special DVD offers and streaming on www.vudu.com.
About Kmart: I think the company is trying to improve but there's a long way to go. The company's new "Shop Your Way" program is being touted by lots of mom bloggers right now through sponsored posts. If Sears pumps the needed money into Kmart to partner with designers and other companies for unique items, they can catch up.
I agree that price is definitely not everything, but when it comes to certain items like toys and beauty products, I choose Wal-Mart over Target because it's always much cheaper at Wal-Mart. However, Target is more aesthetically pleasing and therefore I prefer to shop there for items like clothing and home goods since they seem to have more of the 'design eye' I gravitate toward. I also love their baby products. I haven't shopped at Kmart in years mostly because I've never found their pricing to be very competitive and they are rarely in convenient locations.
In my opinion, Kmart's regular prices are quite inflated and stores aren't well-kept. Wal-Mart and Target are competitive in pricing. I like Target store brands better than Wal-Mart, in general and find Wal-Mart products to be a little more cheaply made.
I LOVE Target. They always seem to have the best customer service, a clean store, very organized and new and exciting products. The prices are competitive and many items are better quality than Wal-Mart and Kmart's products.
Wal-Mart is not my first pick but I definitely do not mind stopping in there on occasion. I will go in there if it is near wherever I am shopping or if I am searching for a specific price on an item.
Kmart is a store I avoid. It just doesn't ever seem like it would have great quality of things to buy or great customer service. When stores started closing, I think they did not do a great job rehabilitating their image.
I completely agree with price not being everything and would also rank Target in the No. 1 spot. Target advertising and branding has always made it stand out in my opinion; from the bull's eye dog to this year's ad campaign featuring the Black Friday/holiday shopping mom. Target's TV and print ads are usually memorable. Target does provide a cleaner store with organized displays that I enjoy browsing, which makes me stay longer and spend more. Wal-Mart prices give me peace of mind that I am not overspending; however, when shopping there, I get in and get out. I have not shopped at Kmart in years because Target and Wal-Mart meet my needs. After hearing the feedback about Kmart, I will not be going there anytime soon.

Erik has been working a lot lately ( he is a nurse so he works weekdays and weekends 12 hour shifts) so I have been home bound with the boy being sick and on single parent duty a lot lately. I may be close to losing my mind. (that's not a jab at bubs, he is working extra hard to save money to take us on a special trip)
anyways.. our day goes kind of like this:
wake up happy
breakfast? yes I think I will have some
Augmentin NONONONONONO! SCREAM! ( me hold him down while I fight his fierce 35lbs and squirt the medicine down his throat)
cry cry cry
Oh Mickey Mouse Club house? YES MOMMA . smile. dance a jig. watch Mickey and snuggle
play... maybe?
change my diaper. NONONONONO scream, kick, maybe hit his head in the process. Kick Kick KICK me right in the gut.
Once off the diaper table, he thinks he can handle life again.
all is well.
Lunch? "Yes I am hungry!" ( tries to climb into his high chair).. bring out the first course ( mash or yogurt) NONONONO $&^%&*()*NO. Cry, flail, try to knock the high chair over while still in it. Smack the spoon sending mushy food flying everywhere. Then take his hands and finger paint the high chair with what he got on his hands.
Exit the high chair , lay in the floor for a tantrum.
Get up, smile, try to climb back in the high chair .
Start over.. next food try something solid and finger food like.. NONONONONONONO SCREAM. flail, try to knock the high chair over while still in it .
Violently throws all the food that I just slaved over and cut up to the floor for Ralphie.
Commences screaming and trying to throw his back out.
Exit the high chair and have fit laying in the floor. The tantrum is so major that he kicks himself clear into another room. ( all while laying on his back)
and so on and so on. Dinner is the same except we have to have more medicine after dinner so. yeah. that again.
We have not really gone anywhere because I don't want to spread germs, although I do not think we are contagious anymore at this point in the game ( I say "we" because we have both been sick), We try to stay at home unless we must go somewhere.
..... and we both go to bed exhausted at night. I think we are equally happy about hitting the mattress since he does not make a peep when I put him to bed.
I think I am going crazy. I find myself toward the end of the day losing my patience and becoming super annoyed. The house is a WRECK.
Thank goodness, sickness will eventually leave and we can go back to good health, however the attitude problem I feel like is gonna need some work. Either he feels terrible from his medicine, or demons have taken him over.
So I guess when he is well again we are gonna have to start some baby boot camp up in here with his eating habits and tantrums. Either that or I am gonna have to learn how to start an IV, go buy a box of wine and hook that sucker up while I lay in the floor convulsing from the mind blowing experience of a screaming toddler 98% of the day who may or may not have dis-located my nose with his sippy cup when that milk didn't taste like he thought it should.
Ok, Off I go to clean up the 87 pieces of diaper that Ralphie so considerately stole from Susannah's kids and left in the closet for me. sweet.

Some beverages are rowdy, in a Bud Light sort of way. Other drinks are understated, like a 12-year-old blend. It's the same thing with A/V gear. You've got your multicolor flashing-light specials that seem really cool, and then you've got your basic black cabinets that actually get the job done. Case in point is the HKTS 60, Harman Kardon's premium 5.1 speaker package.
The satellite and center-channel speakers feature 1-inch dome tweeters constructed from a sandwich of aluminum and ceramic and set in a waveguide to improve dispersion. Dual 3-inch flatpanel midrange drivers use honeycomb construction and diaphragms with a carbon-fiber skin on either side. A 200-watt amplifier powers the high-excursion sealed 8-inch subwoofer, which also employs a DSP bass-boost circuit. Removable bases and wall-mount brackets are included; optional floor stands are also available. Stay thirsty, my friends.

The third biannual report aims to present the work of NGO ASTRA during 2006-2007. This period was marked by program and personal continuity, but also by an increased number of activities within all four ASTRA's programs. As a pioneer and leader in the anti-trafficking area in Serbia, we have had a serious task to keep to the standards which we have set since our early days both to ourselves and to others. When we look back, we may be satisfied with what we have accomplished, both in the area of prevention and direct victim assistance.More information about human trafficking on the website of ASTRA.
