Best-Kept Family Vacation Secret
August 10, 2012
© Erin Zammett Ruddy
One of the many reasons I'm glad I married Nick: If I hadn't, I doubt I'd have ever visited northern Michigan and I think it's one of the best places in the country, hands down. We just returned from a week up there and I can't wait to go back.
For the first 10 years Nick and I were together, the only place in Michigan he ever took me was Flint, where he grew up. Um, well, you can imagine my surprise the first time we drove up north and I saw crystal-clear Lake Michigan and the surrounding towns and lakes and their undeniable beauty. I was blown away. Nick's parents now live in Traverse City, which is one of the coolest places I have ever visited (and I have visited some cool places--Portland, Oregon would be my other fave). Northern Michigan is the perfect summer vacation spot—seriously, check it out. It's super laid-back (flip flops and sneakers will have you covered), has fantastic restaurants (our current favorite, Stella, is run by a friend of Mario Batali, who also vacations up there--see what he says about Traverse City as a foodie destination), local, fresh foods abound, there are great beaches, vineyards, microbreweries, shops, water sports galore, super-nice people, amazing parks and activities and it's surrounded by tons of little towns that dot the gorgeous shoreline. I am a coastal, ocean girl through and through (which is why I had no idea Lake Michigan was such a hot spot—I'm sure those of you in the middle of the country are thinking, duh) but I am now also a Michigan girl by marriage and at heart and I plan to spend lots of summers up north getting to know it better and showing my kids the ropes. Here are this year's photo highlights.
They make a lot of wine up in northern Michigan (Madonna's family has a vineyard!) and it's not half bad. Also not bad: The incredible vistas from the tasting rooms. This place is called Chateau Chantal and it's out on Old Mission Peninsula which juts into Grand Traverse Bay so there's water everywhere you look. Their oak-barreled reserve chardonnay was dynamite.
This is the famous old tugboat in historic Fishtown, a place we love to visit mostly for the little shop that sells Tug Stuff (overpriced clothes with the cool tugboat logo—love!). Also love Alex's tee, which his grandma bought him here. It says Lake Michigan: Unsalted. Get it?
Endless miles of paved trail—aptly named The TART Trail, like the cherries that grow in abundance up there—snake through vineyards and cherry orchards and tons of farmland. Nick and I did a 15-mile bike ride one morning. Sore!
Sleeping Bear Dunes is amazing. It's a series of huge sand dunes that you can climb (and roll down) all surrounded by beautiful beaches and parks. Next year we're going to do a sand-buggy tour.
We played Where's Waldo with Al, who was rocking a red and white striped shirt. Doesn't this place look like the Sahara? So freaking cool.
We went to a town called Elk Rapids (which Nick and I kept referring to as Elk Snout—Overboard, anyone?) for a big carnival/festival they were having. Alex got into the tug of war, naturally.
They also have a natural water slide in this little river that flows out to the lake. Yes, we let our four year old do it about 15 times (that's him, fully submerged). He's a strong swimmer and I was there to stop him from getting caught in the (very mild) rapids.
Nick and I are so not carnival people but he took one for the team and got on the ferris wheel with Nora (my father-in-law took Alex).
I opted for the far-less-scary slide. Though pretty much everything at carnivals like this freaks me out, including the prizes. Alex was given a giant blow-up gun with the American flag printed all over it (I made him give it back and instead he got a blow-up mallet with skulls—much better).
We visited a friend of a friend's organic produce farm and got a great tour and lots of freshly-picked goodies. Local, sustainable food is really big up there—and really good. We cooked from the farm stand almost every night.
Naturally we didn't get a single good family shot but I suppose it's more important that we had an incredible time exploring an amazing part of the country. Thanks, Michigan!

More Harp Guitar
By Scott Regan ~ Posted Fri, 07/25/2008 - 2:44pm
A few day after Mason Williams visited the studio, John Doan returned for a more intensive harp guitar session. John had accompanied Mason Williams in his studio visit, and on stage that night in performance.
This time John came solo.
With him was his twenty string harp guitar. A beautiful instrument. The first of it's kind, as all previous harp guitars only had the added bass strings above the fret board. He helped develop the idea of adding high strings below the fret board.
Listening to the fluid progressions from the existing strings up into the high reaches or the added harp strings was a tribute to the design of the instrument and the technique of Mr. Doan.
If you were one of the lucky to catch him at his house concert that week, or participate in the workshop, you know what I mean. It is an unusual playing of an unusual guitar. Harp-like.

This layout is for an application for my LSS' Design Team. It's based on the book, "The Missing Piece Meets the Big O" by Shel Silverstein. I saw the puzzle pieces at my LSS and knew this is what I wanted to do with them. Everything is from my LSS. After I took the picture, I decided to ink the edges with Walnut Distress Ink. I kind of messed up the title so I ended up doodling all around the missing piece part with a green sparkly pen so the pic makes it hard to see. TFL!

31 tickets purchased from 5 different gas stations. Can't wait to lose
there s a store down the street from us that has sold quite a few big money tickets and the chaos there today is hilarious. line out the door and a bunch of angry people fighting for parking spots. if only they knew how gross they look.
That sounds like what happened here when the new steak and shake opened up.
Because the ROI is better. The jackpot going over 500 million actually means the ROI is over 100%
I put in $5 towards an office pool and if we happened to win it would get split 12 ways; splitting $230 million (from a $640 million jackpot) 12 ways is a lot different than splitting $3.5 million.
I wouldn't complain about my $300K, of course, but it doesn't excite in the way that $20 million does.

I just went to buy more megamilliOns tickets, and I just won 50,000 on a fucking 20 dollar scratcher.... Holy fuck!!!! I'm shaking.... Pics to follow.
LOL. So why you gonna play megamillions now?
You know, but that's valid because if we are all gonna die anyway shouldn't we be enjoying ourselves now? You know, I'd like to quit thinking of the present, like right now, as some minor insignificant preamble to something else.
It's that tad bit of Crazy that keeps me Sane...
HAHA, are you sure? Looks like you won, but not $50,000.
This guy in front of me in line bought $784 worth, wow that took long.

PIQUA, Ohio —
The crash happened Monday afternoon at Interstate 75 and U.S. Route 36 just outside the city of Piqua.
Troopers said the driver of a Chevrolet SUV came off Route 36 into the northbound I-75 entrance ramp and collided head-on into a large steel light post.
They identified the driver as Bryan Gibbons, 20, of Piqua. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Troopers are still attempting to determine why Gibbons, who was westbound on Route 36, drifted onto the interchange.

For most of my life, my mom was a single mother to three children. I remember the late nights she used to work and how my sister would have to help me with my homework and we would all have to help with the chores around the house. I saw how she struggled and fought to put food on the table.
For all the struggles, I never remember needing for anything, sure there was plenty I wanted but not needing anything.
After finishing my first legislative session as majority floor leader, I am proud to look back at the significant accomplishments of the 2013 regular session of the general assembly. Most importantly, we successfully established a new spirit of bipartisan collaboration which allowed us to move the state forward in a meaningful fashion on substantive issues such as comprehensive public employee pension system reform, university bonding, a regulatory framework for hemp production, and added transparency for special taxing districts.
Grant County Sheriff Chuck Dills gets calls from the public on a weekly basis asking him if someone is collecting for the police fund or if a prize letter they received in the mail is real.
His advice has been if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. He also recommends the public ask questions and check with local organizations or businesses before they send donations in the mail or give to a solicitor that knocks at your door.
The 4-H program has a "learn by doing" approach and that means proven results for the youth who participate.
Studies show that 4-H members are:
• Nearly two times more likely to get better grades in school;
• Nearly two times more likely to plan to go to college;
• 41 percent less likely to engage in risky behaviors; and
• 25 percent more likely to positively contribute to their families and communities.
was thinking about bringing stand-up comedians back to Grant County with evening shows at a local restaurant.
The time is now for the Kentucky General Assembly to enact legislation which would statutorily establish the Child Fatality and Near Fatality Review Panel. The time is now for our elected officials to solidify the premise on which child advocates have been voicing their opinion – that the children of the Commonwealth deserve a law which will mandate the review of child fatalities in such a way as to ensure prevention of similar fatalities in the future.
The streets of Williamstown will once again be the site of a festival on Saturday, May 4, known throughout Kentucky as Derby Day.
Stormey Vanover, owner of Country Heart in Williamstown, leads the pod of volunteers who put all the pieces in place for a successful event. If you ever need a leader who can squeeze a festival out of spending pennies, then Stormey is the person you need to call.
In a 30-day "short session" like this year, it's difficult for both chambers of the general assembly to fully consider all the bills that have been filed. However, over the last two weeks, the Senate has taken early action on major legislation, giving the House more time to act on those bills.
The Senate passed important bills addressing the state's General Fund debt, economic development, healthcare, and school safety.

U.S. Sen. Mike Johanns has been named to the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee, as well as those dealing with agriculture, banking and veterans. The Nebraska Republican announced his new committee assignments on Thursday. Besides the government-spending panel, Johanns will serve on the Senate agriculture, banking and veterans' affairs committees. In the process, Johanns gives up spots on the Indian Affairs Committee and Environment and Public Works Committee. Johanns says his goals as a senator are "reining in spending, seeing a reform-minded farm bill signed into law and providing our military and veterans with the services they need." Senator Deb Fischer was officially sworn-in as a United States senator in the U.S. Capitol by Vice President Joseph Biden yesterday. Fischer was escorted by Nebraska's senior Senator Mike Johanns and former Nebraska Senator David Karnes. The ceremony marked the official commencement of Fischer's six-year term, as well as the start of the 113th Congress. Fischer will be placed on the Armed Services Commerce, Science, and Transportation, Environment and Public Works, Small Business and Indian Affairs. Senator Mike Johanns says Congress had to extend the current Farm Bill or risk reverting back to agriculture legislation approved in 1949. Johanns says a provision in federal law calls for national ag policy to revert to the old version if the Farm Bill is allowed to lapse. Johanns, a former Agriculture Secretary, says the USDA would have had a hard time dealing with that. Johanns expects the Senate to pattern any new legislation on the legislation that passed the Senate last year. Though the House Agriculture Committee approved a measure, it never made it to the full House for debate.

Jarrow Formulas Bone Up® Superior Calcium Formula -- 360 Capsules
This is the best calcium supplement on the market
Bone up contains all the bone supporting minerals we need. At a very reasonable price.
February 4, 2014
great product
The Jarrow Bone Up Calcium Formula is a high quality calcium supplement that provides calcium in a form that is easily absorbed.
October 1, 2013
i think this is the best calcium supplement we can get because of the source of the calcium and the inclusion of appropriate amounts of other nutrients which facilitate proper absorption of the calcium Also a good value and I trust Jarrow.
August 9, 2013
intelligent product
Jarrow really did their research on coming up with a supier formulation here. Research indicates that the vitamin K contained in this is needed to properly direct the calcium into the bones where it is needed and not the soft tissues. I have not had a bone density scan done since using this product regularly but someone I know claims this formula helped to build their bone denisty. The fact that you take six a day is also good. The body cannot utilize more than about 500 mg of calcium at one time. Divided doses is the way to go.
June 11, 2013
Helps Nails
A few months ago a doctor told me to use a different calcium supplement. My fingernails began chipping and breaking, but I didn't make the connection. Because this formula is less expensive, I switched back to it after about a month. My nails are in very good condition once again, and they grow very long very fast. It must be well-absorbed.

Disneyland Awards Grant to UCLA's TIES for Families Program |
Date: 10/27/2011 Contact: Amy Albin (email@example.com) Phone: (310) 794-8672 |
For the ninth year, the Disneyland Resort Cast Community Fund has awarded a $5,000 grant to UCLA's TIES (Training, Intervention, Education and Services) for Families program for its services and achievement. The UCLA-based program is dedicated to preparing and supporting adoptive families of children from foster care. "Disneyland's continuing confidence in and support for the project is very heartening," said Susan Edelstein, licensed clinical social worker in the department of pediatrics at Mattel Children's Hospital UCLA and executive director of TIES for Families. "This year's award was made possible by the nomination of a Disneyland employee whose family has used the project's services for many years." The grant will be used to develop the expertise of TIES' clinicians in the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) which will enhance the program's ability to accurately diagnose and formulate treatment plans for the children they serve. "Early intervention is crucial in optimizing outcomes for young children with autism and ASD, and will help us to provide both information on the children's issues and referral to the resources that will best help our foster and adoptive parents," added Edelstein. TIES for Families is a unique collaboration of the UCLA Center for Healthier Children, Families and Communities, the UCLA psychology department; the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health and private foundations. For more information on TIES for Families, please call (310) 825-6110 or visit www.tiesforfamilies.ucla.edu. |

[JURIST] The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] on Monday announced the initiation of removal proceedings [press release] against a Michigan man accused of killing Jews while serving as a member of the Nazi-sponsored Ukrainian Auxiliary Police (UAP) in Lviv, Ukraine, during World War II. John Kalymon is accused of personally shooting Jews while serving in the UAP between 1942 and 1944 and participating in various violent anti-Jewish operations. Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer said:
These charges once again demonstrate the resolve of the Department of Justice to deny safe haven in this country to human rights violators, no matter how long ago they committed their heinous acts. The ultimate removal of John Kalymon will close a very painful chapter and provide a measure of justice to his victims and their families.

Also Friday, the court agreed to rule in Florida v. Jardines [docket, cert. petition, PDF] to determine whether the use of a drug-sniffing dog at the front door of a house is a search under the Fourth Amendment [text] requiring probable cause. The Supreme Court of Florida ruled [opinion, PDF] in April that the "sniff test" was a search under the Fourth Amendment and required probable cause, not reasonable suspicion.
On Monday the court denied certiorari [order list, PDF] in Cash v. Maxwell [docket], upholding the Ninth Circuit decision [opinion, PDF] reversing the 1984 conviction of Bobby Joe Maxwell for the murders of 10 homeless men. The Ninth Circuit presented evidence showing that Maxwell's conviction had been based on testimony from an unreliable witness. However, Justices Scalia and Alito dissented to the denial of certiorari, arguing that the Ninth Circuit relied on circumstantial evidence and that the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of1996 (AEDPA) [text] prevented federal reconsideration of the case. Also Monday, the court affirmed a lower court ruling in Bluman v. FEC [docket; jurisdictional statement, PDF] that foreign nationals living in the US cannot contribute to US election campaigns, making clear that its controversial decision in Citizens United v. FEC [JURIST report] does not extend beyond US citizens.

If you've ever struggled to find a comfortable position to eat in at the dinner table, you know how your kid feels. Purchasing a good high chair for baby or toddler is one of the wisest investments you can make as a parent. Since baby will be using the chair whenever he or she can sit up properly (typically anywhere from 4 to 5 months, but it can be as early as 2 to 3 months) until they are about two years old, you will want to buy a high chair with seating wide enough they can "grow" into but not too wide.
The Classic High Chair
A classic wooden high chair will match almost any home's interior décor, from traditional to contemporary.
Who It's For: Suitable for baby (whenever they can sit up safely in chair) to two years
What to Look For: Dishwasher-safe insert tray for easy cleaning and feeding
Some favorite Designs:
Crafted to complement your home, the Eddie Bauer Classic High Chair
features a dishwasher-safe insert tray that helps make cleanup simple. The high chair also has a convenient rear storage compartment that's perfect for bibs, baby food jars, and utensils.
Pull Up To Table High Chair
These high chairs are designed without a cumbersome tray with which to deal. Instead, these chairs let your child feel like a big kid as he joins the adults at the table.
Who It's For: Suitable for toddler and older kids able to sit up
What to Look For: Easy to assemble; Non skid, non marring plastic feet.
Some favorite Designs: L.A. Baby Hard wood Youth Pull Up to Table High Chair
Other High Chair Buying Tips
Determine in which room the high chair will be used the most. If it's a small sized room, consider a compact or folding high chair like the Fisher Price High Chair Rainforest Healthy Care High Chair model
When space isn't a concern, consider purchasing a high chair that your child can use when into the toddler years.
The high chair should sit on the floor perfectly level. It should also be well-made; have perfectly smooth edges; and be constructed of materials that are easy to keep clean.
Any hardware such as wheels, straps, etc. should be easy for you to use.

These socks are well made and one of the advantages with me is my feet don't smell as bad as with other socks. I really like that there hardly any thickness to the seam at the toes; so it doesn't rub my toes raw. Well made and look like they will last a long time. I had bought the anklet version of these about 3 years ago and they are still going strong

Meet the off the field team at Derbyshire County Cricket Club:
A highly successful 20 year career in the City has provided Chris with a wealth of relevant knowledge and experience for the position of Finance Director. Furthermore, since becoming Chairman of Derbyshire County Cricket Club in March 2011, he has drafted and overseen the implementation of the Club's widely acclaimed Nine Point Cricket Strategy, as well as presiding over on-field LV= County Championship promotion as champions, masterminding two successive profitable years and releasing the Club's future strategy for long-term business sustainability and financial security.
David's company Office Care Ltd is one of the leading cleaning service suppliers in the UK. Having built his leading business from scratch, David has overseen the cross-selling of cricket to his impressive database of corporate contacts. He is the current Derbyshire County Cricket Club Vice Chairman.
With first-hand and extensive experience of the recreational, developmental and professional games in Derbyshire, Kevin can provide valuable insight into all levels of the pyramid structure. Having ended his professional career as recently as 2008 – and still performing at the highest level of the recreational game – he is fully attuned to the needs of the modern day game.
A wealth of experience at the very top of the construction industry ensures that Sir John is ideally qualified to assist Derbyshire CCC with its proposed ground development. He is also in an excellent position to help the Club continue to develop its facilities and income generation off the field.
Recognised by the Legal 500 for his work with clients, Rob is a high-flying Partner and Head of Employment at local law firm Flint Bishop. His specialism is Employment Law and he is an invaluable source of advice to DCCC on contracts and other legal matters.
Regional Reps are appointed by the Supervisory Board to represent Cricket Derbyshire (DCCC and DCB) and look after the interests of the members and supporters in their respective region. Their activities include attending events as an official representative of Cricket Derbyshire, hosting members forums, assisting with introductions to potential sponsors and dealing with member's feedback. In most cases, the Regional Representative will be able to deal with a member's enquiry but they do have a direct line to the Chief Executive's team and will feedback comments and questions, where appropriate, directly to the Club. The Regional Reps focus is on the Club's off-field activities and they are not in a position to comment on or influence what goes on on-the-field.
I am a solicitor, practising in Rotherham and Sheffield and have been a Derbyshire CCC member since 1972, and have had two spells as a member of the general committee, firstly from 1984-93 and then secondly from 2007-13. I have been a Vice President of DCCC for the last 20 years following a spell from 1985-93 as Chairman.
I am a member of the MCC and was the Chairman of the TCCB working party on the admission of Durham as a first-class county 1989-91. I was President of Rotherham Town C.C. 1992-2005.
I attended my first game at the County Ground in June 1947.
After retirement from Industry in 1994, I joined the Club soon afterwards and in 1997 was co-opted to the Committee at the request of Guy Willatt and Vic Brownett to use my contacts for the benefit of the Club and its development plans. I was elected to the General Committee the following year and have been re-elected on each occasion since including the 2013 election.
As a Regional Representative in the Derbyshire Dales area and living in Ashford in the Water for over 40 years, I know most of the grounds in the area from my own village to those in Great Longstone, Baslow, Chatsworth, Darley Dale, Matlock, Bakewell and Youlgrave and would be happy to be the link between them and the County Club to the benefit of both.
I am also a Member of the MCC and Lord's Taverners Midland Region Committee.
Occupation: Commercial Loans, HSBC
Member for 8 years and committee for 6, co opted by Don Amott. Derbyshire born and lifelong supporter of all things associated with our County. Have lived in Staffordshire for 16 years and have represented HSBC Bank in both counties, now based in Birmingham. Have enjoyed being part of the progress at the County Ground over recent years with the focus on home grown talent and prudent financial governance alongside demonstrable ground and commercial improvements. Keen to develop our support and membership in Staffordshire which has and continues to produce talented players to represent Derbyshire through a highly valued partnership arrangement.
I am a retired engineer and have lived in the High Peak area all my life. I have been Honorary Secretary of the High Peak Cricket Society since 1998 and Honorary Secretary of the Council of Cricket Societies since 2002. I have been a member of Derbyshire County Cricket Club for many years and am also an Associate Member of MCC.
I am joint Managing Director of a local family business, which has traded in Derby City Centre since 1929. I have been watching Derbyshire CCC since the mid 1970's, and been a Member since 2009.
I hope that, as regional representative for Erewash, I will be a reliable link between the club and the members in my locality, and also be able to assist communication between the County and local cricket clubs.
I am a retired Chartered Accountant living at Upper Langwith in the north of the county. I have watched the county team, initially at Chesterfield, since the late 1940s and became a member in 1971. In 2000 I was elected to the General Committee as Honorary Treasurer, a position held until the reorganisation in 2013 when I was made a Vice President. I am a regular attendee at county games both home and away. This season I have been a volunteer at the newly refurbished Cricket Derbyshire Book Shop at the County Ground which helps raise funds for the club.
In winter months I attend and am a member of Derbyshire Cricket Society and Chesterfield Cricket Lovers having previously been Honorary Treasurer of the former for several years.

CoyoteJoe Reviews: 2 |
The History Channel has attempted to expand on it's "reality TV" theme along the lines of "Swamp People" or "Axe Men" but the newest edition "Mountain Men" really misses the mark. Promotions suggest viewers will learn how to live off the grid but none of the featured "mountain men" actually do that. Tom Oar lives in a very comfortable modern home in the Yaak Valley of Montana. Marty is an Alaskan trapper who does spend part of the year in a remote cabin but flys home to catch his daughter's ballet performance. Eustace Conway runs a sort of New Age, back to the earth hippie commune where people pay big bucks to visit the remains of an old farm. The producers try to make high drama of every day activities. Will Marty finally catch something? For three episodes he has not. Will a bear eat Tom's dog? With deep snow the bears should be in hibernation. Will Eustace be able to cut enough firewood to pay his taxes? According to his web site he charges $650 for a person to camp five days on his land. Here's a clue for the producers, "real mountainmen don't have web sites". LOL Review posted on Monday, June 25th 2012 at 6:07 am |


text: Rescuing Layna - Chapter 8Chapter 8.It was strange to wake up and see a little girl happily curled up in a giant spiderweb hanging high overhead. Rohn had slept again against the piles of webbing covering the floor and walls, but Layna had insisted Janessa have a proper bed to sleep in, so they had worked together to spin her one. Janessa didn't yet know how to make her own silk, but Layna made the thread, teaching Janessa the finer points of how to use sticky thread and smooth thread, when to spin big thick strands and when to use delicate ones, and how to tie it and weave it so that it could hold her own weight and more, and the two finally wove her strands into the four-pointed hammock in which she now slept.Layna was still asleep beside him on the floor, her legs wrapped under herself, and her head braced against a bundle of soft thread like a pillow. Surprisingly, she had shown no interest in carnal activities last night, not even so much as asking him to join her in another chamber. She

America Against Itself
Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era general editor
Writing on James M. McPherson's Battle Cry of Freedom during Easter week in 1988, one and a quarter centuries after the Civil War, one is struck by the contradiction between the war and the Christian tradition that almost all mid-nineteenth-century Americans, North and South, professed to embrace. This four-year war was the bloodiest of American wars. It claimed the lives of more than half a million soldiers and countless civilians, out of a population, white and black, that numbered only 31.5 million. The military casualties equaled those of all our other wars put together. The death rate was 5.2 times greater than that for World War II.
Despite the bloodshed and because of it, the Civil War holds immense fascination for the American public. Organizations are established with the sole purpose of studying the Civil War, and they pay good money to bring in outside speakers to help them do it. Every little town east of the Mississippi River, and a good many west of it, seems to have its Civil War monument, which tells us something not only about the persisting memories of the war but also about the prosperity of the monument business in the Gilded Age. Special national parks have been established to do honor to the dead, and enthusiasts go to great expense to re-enact Civil War battles. Why should this be so? Given the predominantly southern flavor of most Civil War round-tables, perhaps there is a hint of a longing for what might have been.
The bibliography of the Civil War is already so large that no one can keep up with it, but of the new books one of the best is James M. McPherson's Battle Cry of Freedom, a remarkably wide-ranging synthesis of the history of the 1850s and the Civil War presented in a highly cogent and readable narrative. It is the only recent book I know of that effectively integrates in one volume social, political, and military events from the immediate aftermath of the Mexican War through the sectional strife of the 1850s, the secession movement, and the Civil War, the same years covered by Allan Nevins in his monumental eight volumes.
Indeed, the scope of this work is so broad that it cannot be confined to a single all-inclusive thesis. Nevertheless, McPherson writes that the "multiple meanings of slavery and freedom, and how they dissolved and re-formed into new patterns in the crucible of war, constitute a central theme of this book." Clearly he intends not only to recall the vital part that American blacks and racial issues had in the Civil War, but also to counter the notion, which has gained some currency among historians, that slavery was not necessarily the central issue of the 1850s. This makes sense. How many historians seriously believe there would have been a Civil War from 1861 to 1865 if there had been a national consensus on slavery? For if there had not been slavery, or if slavery had …

Four hack suspects linked to terrorist group
The FBI and Philippine law enforcement officials arrested four people in the Philippines this week who were allegedly paid by terrorists to hack into AT&T's system, but the company said its system was not breached.
The four, who were arrested Wednesday in Manila, were paid by the same Saudi Arabian-based terrorist group identified by the FBI as funding the 2008 attack on Mumbai, the Philippines' Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) said in a statement. The coordinated attacks in India's largest city claimed 164 lives and wounded at least 308.

I completely agree with this. Some people may assume you're religious if their only experience with that name is from the bible, but so what? It certainly shouldn't matter to anyone whether you chose the name Ezra from the bible, as a nod to Ezra Pound, to honor your great-great-grandfather John Ezra, or just because you like the teacher from Pretty Little Liars. Use the names that You love. =]

I agree with the poster above -- as an atheist, I believe the Bible is just another book (albeit one that's had undue influence over Western society). The reason Biblical names are in the mainstream name pool is because we live in a culture dominated by Christianity. I like the idea of secularizing these names as an act of rebellion! :P

Also -- I'm shocked to see so many people claiming they would assume a person is Christian if they used these names. Seriously? I actually know two Ezras, neither of them from Christian families. I know non-Christian Marys and Christian/Christinas. And my friend Abram is a secular Jew. Honestly, it seems like people tend to assume others share their beliefs for very little reason -- and that's their problem, not yours.

As Christianity's cultural aspects have been aggressively imposed on most of the world, I don't think you have to worry about a biblical name coming across as automatically religious, and in the same vein, I don't think any Christian gets to complain. It's not appropriation if it's been forced into your culture for centuries. Malachi might get some eyebrows. A name like Levi, some people might assume you're religious. But Ezra, I would think Jewish (and not necessarily religious) first. Other more mainstream biblical names (Abram, Asher), I don't think anyone would even bat an eye. I just wouldn't worry about it. If you love it, that's all that matters.

America West to Offer New Non-Stop Flights to Las Vegas
Beginning June 17, America West Airlines will offer nonstop daily flights to Las Vegas from Monterey Peninsula Airport, the company announced Monday.
Las Vegas-bound planes will soon take off from Monterey.
Beginning June 17, America West Airlines will offer nonstop daily flights to Las Vegas from Monterey Peninsula Airport, the company announced Monday.
Flights will leave Monterey at 1:40 p.m. and arrive in Las Vegas McCarran International Airport at 3:05 p.m. From Las Vegas, flights will depart at 11:41 a.m. for a 1:01 p.m. Monterey arrival.
Passengers will fly in an 86-seat Canadair Regional Jet 900 operated by America West carrier Mesa Airlines.
Ron Phoebus, chairman of the Monterey airport district's board of directors, called the flight "fabulous news for our community."
"This flight will not only make traveling to Las Vegas convenient, but it will serve as a gateway for those traveling to other destinations throughout North America," he said.
Round-trip fare starts around $250, excluding taxes and fees, according to America West's Web site. Flights to Las Vegas from San Jose International Airport start around $180, according to travel-planning Web site www.orbitz.com.
The new flight announcement is the second in as many weeks for the Monterey airport. Officials last week announced that in June it will offer a daily nonstop flight to Denver, a gateway city that can connect travelers to airports worldwide.
They're betting the Las Vegas flights will boost traffic among business travelers and vacationers alike.
"Las Vegas is the No. 1 travel destination for residents from this area," airport General Manager Tom Greer said.
The new flights are part of Monterey airport's effort to pull travelers away from the San Francisco Bay Area. Greer and Charlie Hayes, deputy general manager, also have proposed regional jet service to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport through American Airlines and to Salt Lake City International Airport through Delta Airlines.
Just off Monterey-Salinas Highway near Garden Road, Monterey Peninsula Airport is served by three regional air carriers, United Express, American Eagle and America West Express, with more than 20 daily flights.
Fifteen of those are daily flights operated by United Express to San Francisco and Los Angeles. American Eagle offers five non-jet flights to Los Angeles.
America West already offers two round-trip flights daily from Monterey to Phoenix, its largest hub.
America West Airlines (NYSE: AWA) is the nation's second-largest low-cost airline. With the additional Monterey-Las Vegas service, the airline will operate 154 daily flights and serve 62 nonstop destinations from Las Vegas McCarran International Airport, more than any other carrier.
The airline operates nearly 1,000 flights daily to 95 destinations in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Costa Rica. More information, including fares and connecting flight services, can be obtained by visiting www.americawest.com.
Non-stop daily: Monterey-Las Vegas Depart Monterey 1:40 p.m.; arrive 3:05 p.m. Depart Las Vegas 11:41 a.m.; arrive 1:01 p.m.
We Recommend
Monterey Peninsula Airport's New Flights Mean New Money
The Monterey Peninsula Airport in the past month has added two nonstop daily flights to Las Vegas and Denver. In August, it plans to add daily nonstop service to Salt Lake City.
Carrier Drops Prices, Flights at Monterey Airport
US Airways announced Wednesday it would drop fares on its Monterey-Las Vegas flights, in response to a request by airport officials.
America West Cuts Back Flights
One day before its merger with US Airways was finalized, America West Airlines announced plans to scale back one of its daily flights out of Monterey.
Delta Offers Flights Between Monterey, Salt Lake City
The service is a first for Delta in Monterey, at least in recent history, and is the third addition for the airport in the past month.

"The quality of the paper and printing was great! And it did not take for the order to arrive at my doorstep. Everything I have bought so far from Tiny Prints has been fabulous."
"I think this card is so pretty, yet classy. It has a nice soft look to it and the blue color is so fresh. It is such a nice touch to send a personalized card to someone."

August 12, 2010
On Thursday, the American Bus Association (ABA) and the Ontario Motor Coach Association (OMCA) announced that the two organizations have scheduled a joint tour operator summit slated for March 30-31, 2011, to be held at the Turning Stone Resort in Verona, N.Y.
The ABA/OMCA Tour Operator Summit will feature educational seminars, business sessions, networking events and a mini-exhibit show. Tour operator members of both organizations from both sides of the border are encouraged to attend.
"We want to have a strong presence among both U.S.- and Canadian-based tour operators at this event, because we value the insights they will provide through their active participation," said ABA President/CEO Peter Pantuso, CTIS. "This summit promises to address issues that include tour trends and demographic developments, U.S.-Canadian border crossing issues, social networking and much more."
"To encourage as many tour operators as possible to join us, we have provided an easily accessible location close to a major motorcoach border crossing at Niagara Falls," said OMCA President Brian Crow. "And we thank our travel partners at the Turning Stone Resort for their gracious hospitality in hosting this vital event."
The two-day summit tentatively is scheduled to include an Operator-to-Operator Session (both OMCA and ABA tour operators), a regional trade show featuring area tour and travel partners, a roundtable and coffee talk, as well as educational seminars covering tour trends and demographic shifts in group travel. The summit will also cover border crossing issues; online business building using GroupConnect; social networking; Canadian errors and omissions insurance updates; and working with travel agents to increase sales.
As this summit is still in the developmental phase, tour operators are encouraged to provide their input to ABA's Courtney Davis (firstname.lastname@example.com, 800-283-2877 x206) or OMCA's Ann Fairley (email@example.com, 416-229-6622 x223).

He's the best player on the most hated team in MLB....pretty easy
Just because he's booed doesnt mean he's not heavily respected just like booing doesnt have to mean hatred
Jester is awesome. I love watching him play. I never understood it too.
I don't know, but I'd guess, well, I don't know.
because Jeter IS the Yankees and Twins fans better hate the Yankees. I respect Jeter, but because he plays on the Yankees, I hate his guts. I feel bad for him getting hurt though because injuries aren't good for anybody. No sympathy towards the Yankees though.
He plays for the Yankees what other reason do you need or is this a Minnesota nice trick question?
Ive never thought that MN fans dont appreciate what AJ did here for 3 yrs.....but he's an arrogant player who takes onfield cheap shots for the Twins #1 rival. Not hard to figure out.
Ive always personally hated Torii Hunter more as he left for nothing more than money (but claimed it wasnt) cause he was tired of MN.
SO glad he never won anything with ANA
First and foremost - I think Jeter is great and is the face of MLB in my private little world.
I take issue with the statement that insinuated that none of us could date and romance the high profile women that Jeter has. In fact, I have dated all of them, and romanced some of them (after Jeter of course). Call me a "left over specialist", but a "dumpster diver" would be the more correct term - some of the aforementioned ladies were high maintenance. I am getting a headache just thinking about it.
One of Jeter's unmentioned past girlfriends - Veronica - I ended up dating and getting married to. We're still together and life is a joy. We even have a portrait hanging of Derek in our sleeping quarters - at her request I must admit. I am not too sure of the significance of the portrait - but I like it... it is a nice portrayal of Derek Jeter... it looks sharp.
Quick questions - I also dislike Aaron Rodgers. Is that allowed?
Great response, Bark!! I enjoyed it, and I am sorry to have presumed that none of the Twins Daily readers would be able to date one of Jeter's exes!!! Ha!
This. I don't personally boo Jeter, but only because I refuse to go to a Yankee game. I would boo EVERY yankee, not just Jeter. But he OWNS the Twins, I think we've retired him about twice in his career. Maybe its his smirk that irritates me. I'm so glad that the Tigers are up 2-0. The Yankees have missed the playoffs just once since the ALDS came into existance. Oh for the good old days of just the ALCS. My favorite period in Yankee history was from 1965 to 1976, when they sucked.
To be rich, good-looking, be pretty much the most loved athlete in NYC and to have the common sense to remain single. THE SMARTEST SOB EVER, BAR NONE!!!!!!
Simply put, I'm tired of hearing the media gush about him. It's hard not to hate a guy even if you do respect the guy as a great player if you try to watch any baseball coverage on tv, let's say on ESPN, that isn't a Yankees game, but yet they tie half their information in their coverage to Jeter or the Yankees. I would love to know the percentage of time ESPN spends talking about the Yankees and Red Sox compared to every other team combined. I was watching NFL network this morning before the games started and I had to sit through a Jeter segment. Do you know how annoying that is? And your argument that he has been loyal and stayed with the same team his whole career is flimsy at best. They can pay out the nose for his declining production (defense counts too) and have it not be a burden like most teams would. You can't tell me that if Jeter came up with the Royals, you would be using the whole loyalty argument. Yes, he's the model of consistency and performance when it matters most. But to think that people hate him because of who he dates etc is completely missing the point.
It's not only allowed, it's encouraged. Well done, sir. Same thing: Good player, most hated team for Minnesota, respect his ability and him (kinda, i personally think he is a bit of a tool though) and love to see him get sacked 8 times in a half and lose as often as possible.
As a fan who is sick and tired of the Jeter "mystic", let me say this: He is overrated. You may think it hard to say that a player with 3300 hits is overrated, but it is actually pretty simple:
- He has played on a team that constantly has all-star players batting around him, which can only make his job that much easier.
- At any given time, he was never considered the best current player at his position (Tejada, A-Rod, Nomar, Rollins, Ramirez).
- He has only led the league in PA (5 times), AB (once), Runs (once) and hits (twice). Not exactly dominating numbers considering what he supposedly brings to the table.
- Never an MVP
- While he has 5 GG, every defensive metric under the sun shows him to be a sub-par to atrocious defender.
- His biggest plus is that he rarely misses a game. Now that isn't a bad thing, but we don't have any problem destroying compiliers, why does Jeter get a pass in this area.
Let's talk about Cap'n Jetes "ability" to lead a team:
- Refused to even discuss moving from short when the team acquired A-Rod, though at the time A-Rod was a superior defensive player.
- He plays the media to make himself look better. When A-Rod struggles, Jeter is mysteriously silent. But if others struggle, Jeter will publicly support them. He's done this to others as well.
- Refused to discuss moving to the outfield, though it would make the team better. Yount, Biggio... Cabrera moved back to 3B this year to accomidate Fielder. Jeter just has to look to his right for somebody willing to sacrifice for the team.
Many other things he gets credit for crack me up:
- All-Star selections are meaningless. It's a popularity contest.
- Yes, Derek Jeter dates "dream" women. So does virtually every other MLB player. Seriously, have you seen the wives of most of these guys? Also, do you suppose they all got the Derek Jeter date package left for them in the backseat of the car the morning after?
Derek Jeter is an elitist, self-centered, egomaniac. I boo Derek Jeter because he is a Yankee and because I believe him to be overrated. If he played for the Royals his whole career, would you put him over George Brett? I wouldn't.
The Jeter legend is driven solely by the media. Put him on a midwestern team and he becomes Craig Biggio. Not a bad player, just not a "greatest of all time"
I always thought it was because the Twins have had such a rough time with the Yankees in the Gardenhire era. Jeter has been killing the Twins for a long time. Why should Twins fans cheer that?
I don't boo Jeter. I boo Yankees. He happens to be one. Put Jeter in a Twins uniform and my booing would halt. Put Revere in a Yankee Uniform and I'll boo his ass!
---His defense is somewhat overrated. He wouldn't get as much hype and exposure had he spent his career in KC or Cleveland. And yeah, the whole St. Jeter thing gets old. However, you're going way too far in other other direction here by ignoring the amazing career he's had dismissing him as a compiler. The guy is a first ballot HOFer for sure.

We strongly advise you to download this application we are sure that everything around you will be surprised.
A Clock for your iPhone, iPod touch and iPad really special that will revolutionize the way we watch the time.
In the App Store, there are many clocks of all types and gender, but no one shows the time as he does "aClock Illusion", the time is now to "Optical Illusion".
In the view we have over the hours, under the minutes and two views, one showing the time to optical illusions and the other showing the normal time.
We may change the display by pressing a switch with your finger anywhere on the screen.
All must begin to accustom the eyes to identify the exact time, only then you will be able to see the numbers very quickly.
aClock Illusion can be used with iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, compatible with Retina Display.
