Comments about 18 Gauge 1/4-in Crown 1-1/2-in Narrow Crown Finish Stapler:
Used it to replace the felt on a pool table. Was very powerful and quick. Had to be careful not to drive the staples too deep, which would cut the felt. Was delivered quickly as advertised.

Comments about 18 Gauge 1/4-in Crown 1-1/2-in Narrow Crown Finish Stapler:
I've used this stapler for a couple months now and driven quite a few 1.5" staples through it flawlessly. It's probably had 3000 staples run through it total. No problems. Good tool. Paid way less than the price for a "new" one.

New York (CNN) -- DNA found on a chain used by protesters believed to be aligned with the Occupy Wall Street movement in New York appears to be a "similar profile" to DNA recovered in the unsolved murder of a Julliard student in 2004, according to a source with knowledge of the case.
There currently is no definitive forensic match between DNA recently found on the chain and DNA on a compact disc player believed to have belonged to Sarah Fox, which was recovered in 2004, the source said.
City authorities say they are investigating what could be new evidence in the killing of Fox, although they remained cautious, saying the find could pose any number of possibilities and is potentially unrelated to her death.
The chain was recovered in Brooklyn and used by demonstrators during a March protest, the source said.
Fox, a third-year drama student at the prestigious performing arts school in Manhattan, was 21 when she went missing.
Her roommate told authorities she was last seen leaving their apartment with her keys and a pink portable CD player.
It is not clear what prompted officials to investigate the chain.
Dana Balicki, a spokesman for Occupy Wall Street, said authorities had not contacted organizers of the movement about the new find, and that the group was unaware of the investigation.

Just Comment Vol 17 No 1: Roma peopleRoma people… stigmatised, discriminated against and still no homeland Roma people have faced stigmatisation, discrimination and marginalisation for centuries in Europe - enduring wars, a lack of cultural understanding, prejudice and hardship. With over 500,000 killed by the Nazis, they remain forgotten victims of 20th century genocides, where as survivors they were refused assistance and compensation. And yet exclusion, prejudice and poverty have continued. Average life expectancy in Europe is 10 to 15 years less than for other Europeans. Roma communities occupy the lowest rung of the economic ladder of European residents with over 75% living below the poverty line. |
ERC Media: Asylum visa freeze 'petty' -- 4th Dec 2013"The Government's decision to suspend the granting of new permanent protection visas for asylum seekers is a new low in Australia's treatment of some of the world's most vulnerable people," Edmund Rice Centre director, Phil Glendenning said today. "This policy announcement from the Government, in response to the defeat in the Senate of their attempt to reintroduce Temporary Protection Visa legislation, is a petty act. This is partisan politics at its worst," Mr Glendenning stated. |
Just Comment Vol 16 No 5: The Majuro DeclarationThe coral atolls and other low-lying islands that dot the Pacific Ocean are just a few meters above sea-level. These islands will experience a higher sea level rise than other parts of the world and Pacific peoples are already exposed to the adverse effects of climate change, something that is not of their own doing. Pacific Island nations cannot afford to wait any longer; that is a luxury belonging to developed nations. They are compelled to attend to their very survival. |

ERC Advocacy: Open letter to PM - Asylum seeking is NOT 'illegal' -- 6 Nov 2013The Edmund Rice Centre has joined with a broad national coalitions of organisations calling for action from Prime Minister Tony Abbott to end the deliberate misrepresentation of asylum seekers that is being perpetrated by Government Ministers and MP's. |
ERC Media: Call on PM Abbott to visit low-lying Pacific nations[PCP Media] Islanders call on Abbott and Bishop to visit low lying Pacific nations "Australia's commitment to reduce our emissions by 5% below 2000 levels by 2020, is by no means an adequate response to the evidence," said Pacific Calling Partnership spokesperson Maria Tiimon Chi-fang speaking at a community gathering in Sydney. "Nor is it appropriate or sufficient given Australia's support for the Majuro Declaration on Climate Leadership, launched in September at the 2013 Pacific Island Forum." "I urge Prime Minister Abbott to reconfirm his support for the Majuro Declaration, and substantially reduce Australia's greenhouse gas emissions," she said. "Cutting 4.5 billion from the overseas aid budget, as well as cutting out key climate change policy infrastructure in Australia, makes me question the Australian Government's commitment to the survival of our Pacific Island nations." said Ms Tiimon Chi-fang, community outreach officer for the Pacific Calling Partnership. "I call on our Australian Prime Minister and Foreign Affairs Minister to visit my home country," Ms Tiimon Chi-fang, now an Australian citizen, said. "Not until they can see the human face of climate change will they fully understand the consequences of their inaction for my people. |
Just Comment Vol 16 No 4: SanctionsSanctions are not an alternative to war. They seem invisible, but their effects are highly visible. Deliberately crippling a nation's economy is nothing less than war. With the imposition of sanctions ordinary Iranians are increasingly caught in the crosshairs. Sanctions actually lead to increased repression and corruption as well as sow the seeds of further alienation between the people of Iran and the United States. Australia joined with the United States in imposing sanctions against Iran with the aim of preventing it from acquiring nuclear weapons. It is not true that sanctions are 'targeted.' The true nature of so-called 'targeted' sanctions in Iran was revealed before the escalation of sanctions. U.S. and European Union sanctions 'seriously endangered the lives of tens of thousands of patients, particularly children, suffering from special diseases.' |
Just Comment Vol 16 No 3: Climate JusticeTo our North and East of Australia lie the Pacific Islands, a vast region that is at the forefront of human induced climate change. Within this collection of archipelagos and atolls lie Kiribati, Tuvalu, and the Republic of Marshall Islands (RMI), whose people have seen the quality of their lives deteriorate from the impact of rising sea temperatures and tides. Human induced climate change is the cause, and is exacerbating existing human development issues that face the atolls. That the world needs to reduce its emissions can no longer be in doubt if these island nations are to remain intact, both as a collection of land and as cultural groups, by the end of the century. Australia, as the highest per capita greenhouse gas emitter in the world and their neighbour, can and must do more to lead the way in reducing emissions. At our current rate, we are likely to see a rise in sea levels of 0.6 metres and 4 degrees in temperature by 2100. This is a fearful prospect for our low lying neighbours. |
Religious Leaders publish Open Letter on Climate ChangeProminent religious leaders in Australia have endorsed an Open Letter on Climate Change drafted by the Australian Religious Response to Climate Change. They are calling upon Australia to be a part of the global solution to climate change, in order to avert a dangerous potential 4° C rise in global temperatures. Many of the key signatories came together for an official launch in Sydney on 4th July 2013. |
ERC Media: Climate changes forced migration needs new solutions -- Thurs, 18th April 2013Sydney, Thursday, 18th April 2013 Edmund Rice Centre: 'There is still time to plan and act to prevent a crisis-like scenario.' The crisis responses necessary and available to refugees will not be an answer to future displacement caused by climate change, said Phil Glendenning - Director of the Edmund Rice Centre, and President of the Refugee Council of Australia - today. "The issues associated with climate change displacement are complex and need to be taken very seriously by the international community. However, while those affected by climate change may need, and should receive, international assistance, they are not refugees under international law," RCOA President Phil Glendenning said. Responding to an article in the UK newspaper, The Guardian, Mr Glendenning said that he has not called for those affected by climate change to be recognised as a "new category of refugee". "Refugee is a legal term that comes with specific rights and obligations and only applies to those who are residing outside of their country of origin and who have a well-founded fear of persecution," he said. |
ERC Media: Coalition's Asylum Seeker proposal rejects rule-of-law -- Thurs, 28th Feb 2013Sydney: Edmund Rice Centre: 'Classic example of lowest-common-denominator politicking.' |
Just Comment Vol 16 No 2: Palm oil -- the 'threat' in our shopping trolleyIt is little known the extent to which palm oil is a part of our everyday diet. In our supermarkets, pharmacies and convenience shops it is almost impossible to purchase products free from palm oil. It is used in ice cream, chocolate, biscuits, crackers, chips, margarine, fruit juice, batters, soap, toothpaste, laundry powders, detergents, cosmetics, pet food. It has also been touted as a biofuel – although palm oil-based diesel actually increases greenhouse emissions. In Colombia human rights advocates have demonstrated that the murders and violence committed by the Colombian Armed Forces' under their 'paramilitary strategy' whilst rationalised as 'depopulating' counter-insurgency work has the real aim of the taking of lands from peasant communities in fertile coastal plains in order to establish massive palm oil plantations to generate export dolllars for corrupt Colombian generals. |
Just Comment Vol 16 No 1: Jeju Island - assault on island of peaceThe US has over 1000 military bases around the world, including 82 in South Korea alone. China - against whom this expansion is directed - has no significant military bases outside its borders. Yet, most Australians and Americans are unaware of the United States increasing its military presence in Korea, Japan, and the rest of the Pacific – including Australia.
Nor are they aware of Jeju Island, 80 kms south-west of the Korean Peninsula. Many of the people of Jeju are attempting to non-violently resist the construction of a new naval base in the small fishing and farming village of Gangjeong. For Korea, the island is becoming 'the spearhead of the country's defense line,' a reckless 500km from China. A naval base at Gangjeong will increase military tensions and will be an obstacle to peace in the East Asian region, so this resistance represents a larger drama being played out against the forces of empire. |
ERC Media: Australia's foreign aid diverted to on-shore asylum programs -- Wed 19th Dec 2012The Edmund Rice Centre has rejected the Government's decision to divert $375 million dollars of foreign aid - to be allocated to the living expenses of asylum seekers on-shore in Australia. |
ERC Media: Ambition and urgency missing in UN Climate talks -- Wed 5th Dec 2012 Pacific Calling Partnership: 'Each delay extinguishes more opportunities.' Pacific climate advocate Maria Tiimon Chi-fang today called for stronger ambition and a greater sense of urgency from the international community in UN climate talks taking place in Doha, Qatar. Speaking from the UN's COP18 Climate Summit in Doha, Qatar Ms Tiimon - Pacific Outreach Officer for the Edmund Rice Centre's Pacific Calling Partnership initiative - is one of four delegates – including two from Tuvalu - sponsored to attend the talks by the Sydney-based initiative. "The absence of any real sense of urgency and the lack of ambition in the negotiations here in Doha are an indictment on high-emissions governments globally," she said. "This lack of ambition is a way for governments of the economically strong countries to just turn their backs on the cultures whose lives they are effectively destroying with their emissions." |
ERC International Human Rights Immersion: Central America -- July 2012A formation program for people wishing to develop new and profound perspectives to their existing frameworks and commitment to social justice & reconciliation.

March 4th, 2014GAINESVILLE, Fla. — The University of Florida begins its 20th season of archaeological fieldwork since 1976 this week in St. Augustine at the site of America's first colony, founded by explorer Pedro Menendez in 1565.
Though the original colony lasted only nine months, researchers have uncovered more than 97,000 artifacts left behind by Spanish immigrants, valued at nearly $3.5 million and recently donated by the Fraser family to the Florida Museum of Natural History on the UF campus. Now researchers will begin unearthing the colony's fortifications to better understand its defenses, said Kathleen Deagan, retired distinguished curator of historical archaeology at the Florida Museum.
"These artifacts are the only evidence we have as to how people lived in the colony and what objects they used," Deagan said. "The documents from the period only briefly describe the settlers' time at the site. There is nothing there about their lives and how people coped with being in a new, strange place. Now that we know more about their lives within the colony, we want to understand how they defended it."
The Frasers own and operate the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park where the first colony site is located. In February, the family visited the museum's historical archaeology collections at Dickinson Hall on the UF campus to observe how the donated artifacts are being pieced together and studied to understand where the materials originated and how they were made. Park manager John Fraser said his family donated the artifacts to ensure they would be preserved and (more…)

UF reports fewer shark attacks in 2013, above-average fatalities worldwide
February 17th, 2014GAINESVILLE, Fla. — The world experienced the lowest number of shark attacks since 2009, although fatalities in 2013 were above average, according to the University of Florida's International Shark Attack File report released today.
The U.S. saw a decrease in attacks with 47, lower than the 2012 total of 54, which was the highest yearly total of the current century. There were 10 fatalities worldwide, which is higher than the 10-year average from 2003-2012. Two localities, Western Australia (six deaths in past four years) and Reunion Island (five deaths in three years) in the southwest Indian Ocean, remained shark-attack hot spots, while places where shark activity is typically rare or nonexistent also experienced attacks, said George Burgess, curator of the file (more…)
UF receives $1.97 million NSF grant to develop paleontology network
February 10th, 2014GAINESVILLE, Fla. — With the goal of promoting life-long learning, University of Florida researchers will use a four-year, $1.97 million National Science Foundation grant to create a nationwide network of amateur and professional paleontologists.
Fossil clubs across the country function independently and do not communicate with each other or professionals as most science-hobbyist groups do, according to research by Bruce MacFadden, vertebrate paleontology curator at the Florida Museum of Natural History on the UF campus.
The FOSSIL Project–Fostering Opportunities for Synergistic STEM in Informal Learners–will cultivate a network for fossil enthusiasts to collaborate in blended learning, the practice of science and educational outreach. To facilitate relationship building, amateur paleontologists have been invited to participate in the North American Paleontology Convention to be held in Gainesville beginning Saturday.
"This is the first time that fossil enthusiasts have been invited, and the grant is paying for them to attend," said MacFadden, who is partnering (more…)

It was not much! Rotisserie chicken, 2 cups spinach, 2 cups romaine, half cup mushrooms, a couple T of chopped onion, bacon bits, 1T pumpkin seeds, 1T drews italian dressing, 1T kraft light italian, jalapenos. about 500 cals My snack this evening will be coconut bark and a quarter cup mixed nuts. About 400 cals I hit about 1750 today, 35 net carbs, 150 grams protein and 120 grams of fat. Awesome numbers for me! I should be in ketosis but I don't have strips and I drink so much water that my pee is really diluted. I think I did notice a faint metallic smell this morning. Ketosis never helped my appetite or energy like some people but my carbs have been really low. I'm still preparing to do thisrefeed Friday. If it all works like it should I should do a refeed every 7 to 10 days. I'm hoping it works. I really want to keep the muscle I'm building but lose some body fat. I was down to 143 this moring! I was so happy. Beeb our stats are so much alike. I wouldlove to get to 140 but if I don't I'm happy here.

Publisher's Description
Author Bio
Author Info
A sought after Creative Director, Jason Locy is Principal of FiveStone, an award winning brand and design firm that helps organizations develop long-term sustainable strategies. Jason's work and marketing campaigns have garnered national and international attention.
Tim and Jason live down the road from each other somewhere north of Atlanta; Tim with his enchanting wife Christine and pixie daughters Lyric and Brielle; Jason with his winsome wife Heather and three boisterous children Ethan, Christian, and Naomi.
Authors Timothy Willard and Jason Locy draw a skillful comparison between valuable flooring and authentic Christian living. It is their belief, and the premise of Veneer: Living Deeply in a Surface Society, that life is richer and more appreciated when the veneer is removed and the character of the material is allowed to shine through. Like skilled woodworkers, they carefully strip away the highly regulated and manufactured veneers of "good Christian living" and then tenderly restore the underlying material one's character so that the uniqueness of the individual shines through. Just as each board tells a different story, so each life should have its unique characteristics.
Throughout this process, the reader is challenged to examine their own thoughts and decisions against the character and person of God. Willard and Locy masterfully display the simplicity of life in a way that highlights the greatness and majesty of God while revealing the flaws and garishness of what passes for "acceptable societal norms."
Although a voracious reader, I rarely read a book in one sitting. Veneer stands out in that regard. I literally could not put it down, and devoured the 260+ pages while waiting for my sons to complete their swim team practice! My eyes raced from page to page, my heart responding to the truths found within God's Word as explained by the authors. More passages were highlighted and pages turned down for further contemplation in this book than in any other of similar size.
Perhaps the largest concept to grab my attention dealt with the difference between experiencing God (a popular phrase in some Christian circles) to the desire God has for His creation to encounter Him. Experience focuses on a past action you know what a roller coaster experience contains, for example; yet an encounter could be anything and that is the point God stresses to His children. Life could be anything, but He is there! I can heartily recommend
Veneer to you. I would also recommend setting aside time for reading it, as I expect it will grip you much as it did me. Charles Eldred, www.ChristianBookPreviews.com

Health Reform: We Need Details, President Obama
Sweeping change is almost certainly coming, but how will it work?
By Bernadine Healy, M.D.
One thing that's clear from the political winds blowing at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue is that the perceived secret to getting health reform done is to keep the details away from pesky critics until it's almost too late to say no. On this, President Obama and a select group in Congress have emerged as a phenomenal tag team. Obama is the frontman, speaking in great generalities and making pledges that are almost too good to be true, while those in Congress, emboldened by a nearly filibuster-proof Democratic majority, are at work behind closed doors on the nuts and bolts. The promise is that all Americans will soon be guaranteed affordable, high-quality healthcare and the freedom to choose whatever doctor or health plan they want, all at a savings of some $2,500 per family. This comes with an even broader assurance: the very salvation of our economy, which Obama preaches is doomed without the cost-tightening of health reform. But slow down here. We need to look critically at this sales pitch, because reform comes with a price that is only gradually being revealed.
At the moment, committees in the House and Senate are penning their sweeping legislation on a timetable that will not allow for a public viewing before mid-June. Passage is expected in July, in time for a presidential-congressional victory lap by summer's end. The reason for this breathtaking pace? A big one is the fear that if it doesn't happen fast, it won't happen—and that many of those who lived through the Clinton health plan debacle in 1994 believe that the devil in the revealed details of that plan sank it.
In the interest of time, the Senate Finance Committee headed by Sen. Max Baucus has made a heroic effort to pull together the many committees with a stake in health reform and craft a bill that most in the majority will buy into. Just in the past three weeks, his committee has begun to let the public in on some of its handiwork by issuing three white papers on policy options that might or might not make it into the final bill. At first glance, some of the ideas look awfully good. Mandating that every American has coverage, ensuring that those who really can't afford it will be helped, and providing that affordable insurance will be there from an employer or through a national purchasing exchange in which insurers are obliged to participate without discrimination based on a person's health status. This adds up to universal coverage.
But it may be hard to swallow many of the other changes included in comprehensive health reform, particularly without a deeper understanding of just how they will be implemented. The creation of an electronic medical record is a priority, but making it a national database accessible in real time to a wide array of people, including government bureaucrats and researchers removed from the care of the individual patient, raises concerns about privacy and the risk of mishaps and misuse. Similarly, investing in expanded comparative effectiveness studies that balance benefits of treatments with their costs in order to come up with more-standardized care can readily fall into the trap of rationing and one-size-fits-all guidelines. And with monitoring of each keystroke of doctors and hospitals made possible through computer networks, one could imagine imposing penalties on caregivers who don't always toe the line.
Look at colon cancer prevention. Medicare decided recently not to pay for virtual colonoscopy, an approved and useful imaging test. Sure, it may not be as accurate as invasive colonoscopy, but it may be all certain people will do. Also, doctors have advised some patients with totally normal colonoscopies to have the easier and less expensive virtual procedure at the next five-year mark and another full exam at 10 years. The need for examination at the five-year point is controversial and opinions vary among doctors, but studies have shown that at least one precancerous polyp is detected in 17 percent of such patients and more advanced cancers in 1.3 percent at that five-year point. The virtual option should be a doctor-patient decision but would be eliminated if Medicare is paying the bill.
Also being considered is an institute dedicated to comparative cost-benefit studies, like the National Institute for Clinical Excellence in Great Britain. NICE has made some famously unpopular rationing decisions that have prevented or delayed patients' access to lifesaving cancer drugs. Before it was embarrassed in the press, NICE restricted access to a new drug that prevents blindness until patients had lost sight in one eye. Obviously, implementation is everything.
A highly controversial proposal featured in one of the white papers released this month calls for a new public health insurance option, amounting to Medicare for those under 65 years old, that would compete with private insurance plans. But as both referee and player, the government could easily obliterate private insurance, achieving what some have wanted but the public has not widely endorsed: a single-payer healthcare system. If that is the intended goal, let's discuss it.
Perhaps the most provocative of the white papers, released Wednesday, describes ways to pay for comprehensive health reform. The report acknowledges that savings from within the current system will not generate dollars up to this task in the near future. Thus, more than the rich will have to dig into their pockets and pay extra in taxes.
Income-tax breaks geared to encourage healthcare coverage are high on the list for reduction or elimination. That includes taxing employer-paid premiums and doing away with the deduction that's currently available to the elderly for their Medicare A, B, and D premiums. Retired military and their families would lose their similar tax deductions.
On the chopping block as well are deductions that individuals and families can take for major out-of-pocket medical expenses, as well as a portion of the tax benefit of funding health savings accounts. Charitable contributions to health organizations and even tax-free bonds for private nonprofit hospitals are potentially on the phaseout list. Beyond income taxes, lifestyle penalties seem popular, such as taxes on alcohol and soft drinks charged to the miscreants.
These are but a few of the numerous options that will be unveiled next month. Many will create unintended or unconsidered consequences. With the popularity of the president and the dominance of his party in Congress, comprehensive healthcare reform may easily pass, but the victory will be pyrrhic if questions concerning regulation and taxation, rationing and government intrusions into medical practice, and the real taxpayer cost are not taken up ahead of time.

These are pretty daunting numbers, but the Sharks appear to be riding the percentages to a healthy extent, as their possession stats are fine, but not on the level of teams like St. Louis or Los Angeles. Goaltender Antti Niemi has put up stellar results so far, but he hasn't performed at this level for a lengthy period of time previously, so he's due to fall back to Earth as well.
San Jose Sharks
He leads the league in Goals with 9, and has been nearly a point-per-game player over his career against the Nashville Predators (47 points in 50 games). Yup, the main guy to keep an eye on tonight is longtime Shark Patrick Marleau.
Sure, the fans in San Jose expect Marleau to cool off, but he's traditionally had good success against Nashville, so take no comfort there.
The Sharks come into tonight's game undefeated, but on the heels of back-to-back shootout victories over Anaheim & Edmonton, so it's not like San Jose is a juggernaut rolling through the West at the present time, nor does it sound like the coaches are entirely content with how things are going. Sharks beat writer David Pollak brings word of changes n the San Jose lineup:
For a 7-0 team, some likely new looks for #SJSharks vs. NSH tonight. Demers in and paired with Vlasic, Stuart and Boyle paired, Irwin sits.
— David Pollak (@PollakOnSharks) February 2, 2013
Also mixing up forwards at #SJSharks a.m. skate: 3rd line was Gomez-Handzus-Havlat; 2nd line of Sheppard-Couture-Clowe. No Wingels.
— David Pollak (@PollakOnSharks) February 2, 2013
Nashville Predators
Despite the valor shown in Thursday night's 2-1 shootout triumph in Los Angeles, the Preds have a long way to go before looking like the Cup contender that took to the ice in last spring's playoff.
One lineup decision to be watched tonight is whether Roman Josi goes back to work alonside Shea Weber. Scott Hannan got the nod there Thursday at Los Angeles, but three trips to the penalty box argue that perhaps he's not well-suited to match up against top opposing forwards. Chemistry between Josi & Weber will certainly be a work in progress, but it's probably for the best to keep that work moving along as quickly as possible.
So make sure to check back tonight for another late-late-late Game Thread!

My time with a close friend's mom.
I was living in the city, at my friend's house. I had just turned nineteen and was looking for work. I found a job at a local fitness center. My friend Leo was a year older and had a similar plan. His seventeen year old sister, Isa and his mother were also residing in the house. His father was off working somewhere in the Pacific, hardly at home. While I was there, news broke out that he...Read On

Josh is large and in charge!
Seconds felt like hours as Robert sat in front of the desktop, anxiously waiting for it to turn on. Robert's heart pounded in his chest and his palms were now becoming wet with perspiration. His poor soul was tortured as he sat there with his cell phone in hand, watching the picture of Josh sucking Carla's breasts. How could she? She promised him. Finally the computer came on.

Watching my wife give a blow job to a stranger.
One day my wife and I drove to Santa Barbara for some shopping for her birthday. We live in another town about 110 miles away.

The dress was somewhat see-through if the light hit it just right. I didn't think she knew at...Read On

About two weeks after our first time by the pool, John invited me out to his cabin for the weekend. School had just ended, so I agreed. It wasn't much of a question really, since I hadn't seen his mom Suzanne since, either. After what happened last time, I couldn't wait to see her again. So I packed up my bag and hit the road.

Steiner, Lynn M.
Adult Nonfiction SB439.24.M65 S74 2005
| |||||
Summary: Gardeners use native plants for several reasons. For many, their initial attraction is to native plants' reputation for being low maintenance, as well as their ability to survive difficult soil and weather conditions. But equally appealing is the joy of connecting with nature and our state's natural heritage and the satisfaction of creating a real sense of place rather than just another cookie-cutter landscape. "Landscaping with Native Plants of Minnesota" is the first book designed to help you identify Minnesota's native plants and plant communities and to demonstrate how to use them effectively in a typical home landscape. In this book you'll find the basic gardening information you need for working with the native plants of Minnesota. You'll learn what level of native-plant landscaping is right for you and get valuable information on the process of designing a natural garden that fits your lifestyle and family. You'll also find lots of plant lists for specific styles of gardens. In the Gallery of Gardens section, you'll be inspired by what your fellow Minnesota gardeners have done with native plants in their own landscapes, including a prairie restoration, a suburban woodland garden, and a garden for wildlife. The Native Plant Profiles section includes comprehensive descriptions of some 600 species of flowers and groundcovers, trees, shrubs, vines, evergreens, grasses, and ferns native to Minnesota, as well as information on planting, maintenance, and landscape uses for each plant. About the Author: Lynn M. Steiner is one of the best-known gardening writers in Minnesota. Her enthusiasm for native plants and gardening stems from her childhood curiosity about all things natural as well as 20 years of tending her own extensive home gardens. For 15 years she was the editor of Northern Gardener magazine, and under her direction it earned several awards for ""Overall Excellence"" from the Minnesota Magazine & Publications Association.

I agree with this smart lady. Of course it can be a sweet bond, but I imagine resentment from the little sister/brother. What if they hate the name? I want this to come back to me, if my child hates their name I want me to be the reason, not their big sister. And I want my other children's names to have as much love and care put into them as my first. Might be the little sister in me, but I don't ever want Rosalind's siblings to feel like they are less important in any way.
As for pronouncing the name; that's what cute adorable nicknames are for!My darling Marian Illyria Aphrodite, March 2013 & Little Bunny (a girl!) due 9th of February 2014

My niece chose my daughter's name. But it helps that we have similar taste. Which may be worrying, given that she's still in preschool..!

I "helped" my parents, to name my brother Phillip, when I was three! But only because I watched sleeping Beauty.. Atleast that was the name they wanted anyway, so.. I also helped my sister, Maja, naming her daughter Silke. I gave them some choices and they stood between Sally and Silke, until she was born.

I would probably allow my daughter some input if she were older, but it would still be the decision of myself and my DH. While I would allow her weigh in and take her opinion into consideration, it would ultimately be our choice.
She has zero input for this sibling, but when told a hypothetical sister *might* be named Rosaline she said "Cool, I'm going to call her rosiecheeks for short!" which I think is cute, and I'm happy to go along with that]

This pilot was merged with one of the early Flinstones episodes, "The Swimming Pool". In this one, Fred Flagstone was resting in his pool on a tube and his wife Wilma brings his lunch. Afterwards, she was scared by Barney's weird scuba diving look. Wanting to show Flagstone his new suit with his bow and arrow, he accidentally shoots it and the arrow goes into the tube. Flagstone sinks into the water quickly...and Barney grabs the lunch ! **The first real episode of the Flintstones Aired: September 30, 1960.**

This is the 3rd expedition we have owned starting in 1999. With 3 kids a big vehicle like this comes in handy. No fights on those long trips. We had an 05 before and while that treated us well this 09 is head and shoulders above. The six speed transmission is so much smoother with faster acceleration. The features on the Eddie Bauer are second to none. Heated and cooled leather seats,sync,moonroof and the best feature of all is the power fold flat rear seat. I wouldn't even look at a vehicle this big without it! We just picked this up but reliability has always been excellent. This thing is loaded and we will keep it for many years.
