Vitter argued that any executive amnesty would be "absolutely unconstitutional," "so we'd sure as heck go to court to block it." Adding, "we'd have to go to court."
Vitter also said that Republicans in the Senate have unified against any executive amnesty, stating "this latest crisis, particularly focusing on this flood of unaccompanied alien children, is really building a consensus in the country, first of all and certainly among Republicans in the Senate as well."
He also predicted that Senators such as Lindsay Graham (R-SC) and Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) will fight any executive amnesty by the president.

Palestinian legislator denounces suspension as "political persecution."
Comments came during a parliamentary session from which three Arab members were expelled for criticizing Israel's full-scale bombardment of Gaza.
How can the Palestinian leadership agree to a vague term that Israeli lawmakers cannot define?
The persecution of asylum-seekers has only got worse this year.
Spray-painted hate messages betray motivation behind attacks.
The official also played on common racist tropes of Africans and people of color as bearers of diseases.

As an instructor, you may have questions about the services we provide to you and to your students and our policies. Below you will find information on how to schedule an in-class visit, text for your syllabus, and answers to common questions. If you have a question that you are not able to find the answer to on this page, please do not hesitate to contact Nicole Montana at email@example.com.
Trained tutors at the Writing Center conduct personal sessions one-on-one with students. Shared conversation is an integral part of the revision or planning process. Tutors gently guide, suggest and encourage, focusing on the development of the writing process and the acquisition of writing skills. We work with all writers at any stage of the writing process from brainstorming to the final touches. We also have handouts—on topics including MLA and APA documentation, thesis examples, and grammar rules—for those times when your students need a quick reference.
Did you know that approximately 40% of the students who utilize our services report being referred to us by their professor? Another 20% of our student users report hearing about our services from an in-class presentation. This means that almost 60% of the students utilizing our services learned about us through you! Thank you!
In-class presentations
Writing tutors are available to visit your class and speak briefly about the Writing/Reading Center and the services we provide. These visits usually take 5-10 minutes and can greatly improve the chances that your students will take advantage of our services.
If you are interested in having a writing workshop for your class in the O'Neill Center on a topic such as how to formulate a thesis statement or how to conduct peer reviews, please contact Nicole Montana to see what is possible.
To schedule an in-class visit, please contact Nicole Montana at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Text That You Can Use on Your Course Syllabus
The Writing/Reading Center offers free one-on-one assistance with your paper. Trained peer tutors are available during drop-in hours throughout the semester, and can help you in any stage of the writing process from brainstorming to the final touches. Workshops, handouts, and resources on a variety of topics such as MLA and APA style, thesis construction, and grammar/punctuation rules are also available for you.
The Writing/Reading Center is located in the O'Neill Center for Academic Development in the lower level of the CdC. Drop-in hours and more information can be found at: http://minerva.stkate.edu/offices/academic/oneill.nsf or by calling the O'Neill Center at 651-690-6563.
Style Guides - What Version?
The Writing/Reading Center is currently using the following editions of popular style guides and handbooks to assist students:
APA Manual of Style: 6th editionMLA Handbook: 7th editionChicago Manual of Style: 16th editionAMA Handbook: 10th editionBedford Handbook: 8th edition
Take-Home Final Essays
While many instructors encourage their students to visit us throughout the semester, a take-home final may not be an essay that an instructor intended their students to receive tutoring assistance on. It is our policy not to work with students on final exams or papers unless we have prior approval from their instructor. Prior approval can be sent via email to Nicole Montana, assistant director in charge of the Writing/Reading Center, at firstname.lastname@example.com. Instructors can approve specific students or an entire course.
Will you notify me if a student of mine is utilizing your services?
The Writing/Reading Center strives to provide confidential support to students. We do not contact instructors or provide them with the names of students that are receiving assistance.
This policy allows students to work freely in a space to hone their writing skills without being evaluated.
If you have a student that you have asked to seek assistance and would like to personally refer to the Writing/Reading Center for assistance, please also contact Nicole Montana at email@example.com.
Will a tutor sign a paper they have worked on if I require proof of a visit?
The tutoring session we promote is a one-on-one conversation between the student and the tutor. We believe if the student and tutor are able to discuss the strengths and weaknesses in a paper instead of focusing on correction-style instruction, the student is allowed to see and realize their own abilities in shaping the work they present. While our tutors have gone through extensive training, we focus on keeping the tutoring session an "across the table" exchange. It is for this reason that we do not have the tutors sign-off on the papers they have worked on. We believe that if they were to do so, this would change the dynamic of the tutoring session.
If you have set up a learning contract with a student that involves the Writing/Reading Center and you need to confirm the student is utilizing our services, please contact Nicole Montana at firstname.lastname@example.com.

American Red Cross Blood Drive
Does this weather have you wishing for a warm fire and a good book? Curl up with some heroes and heroines in these wintry romances:
In The Longest Night, Marine Captain Cecily Knight has retreated to the Canadian wilderness to live simply – away from the crowds that trigger horrific memories of her time as a prisoner of war. But when an old friend calls in a favor, she's forced to share her solitude with Ian Fairchild, an urbanite lawyer struggling with secrets of his own. Together, they find old wounds healing–and the possibility of love.
In How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf, Mo Wenstein moves to Alaska expecting snow and small-town hospitality; what she gets is a naked man on her porch. A naked werewolf, to be specific: Cooper Graham, the very grumpy leader of the local pack. Hijinks ensue as Mo navigates the local dating scene and Cooper tracks down a killer who might be a werewolf himself.
In Unlawful Contact (the third book in Pamela Clare's I-Team series), reporter Sophie Alton is investigating the mistreatment of pregnant women in prison when convict Marc Hunter takes her hostage. Desperate to find his missing sister, kidnapping Sophie is a last resort for Marc – an honorable man driven to extreme measures. With the life of a young woman at stake and corrupt officials determined to take down both Marc and Sophie, the pair are in a race against time – and their own unruly hearts.
PS: Don't feel like braving the ice and snow? The Longest Night, How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf, and Unlawful Contact are all available for download as ebooks! You can enjoy a great read without having to leave the house.

At the intermission of a London opera performance, elegant socialite Charlotte Alton makes eye contact with a mysterious man who hands her a battered Christmas ornament before disappearing. It's a message for Karla, an underworld fixer who can make information disappear—Charlotte Alton's powerful and amoral alter ego. The invitation to meet is Charlotte's first step onto a dark path that will bring together old enemies and new in a twisty puzzle-box of a thriller exploring intersections between the worlds of crime, intelligence gathering, police work, and high society. Elegantly written and tightly plotted, every detail matters in this dark and gripping debut.
Take a set back into retro Columbus with the book Kahiki Supper Club by David Meyers.
The Kahiki, a South Seas themed restaurant, was located in Columbus on East Broad Street. The restaurant was easy to identify since it was shaped like a Polynesian fighting boat, with giant flaming Mo'ai heads outside the main doors. Entering you walked into a faux South Pacific village with tropical rainforest, totally exotic. The best was ordering up the "Mystery Drink" which came in a bowl with a smoking volcano and served by the "Mystery Girl" who danced the drink to your table after being summoned by a giant gong, fun!
Nothing says summer more than a private island, lazy days, and traumatic amnesia. 17 year-old Cadence Sinclair Easton returns to the Sinclair family island after a two-year hiatus, two years in which she was afflicted by debilitating migraines and fragmented memories of an event that happened in the summer of her fifteenth year. The Liars - Cady, her two older cousins, and family friend, Gat – spend the summer piecing together the parts of "Summer 15" that Cady has been missing. What she (and the reader) finds when all the pieces come together is a shocking answer to the mystery and an ending that is as unforgettable for us as it was repellent for her. With luscious storytelling and a poetic sense of memory, Were We Liars will leave you clamoring for the answer from start to finish.
Who is the liar here after all?

Excellent location, fantastic view of Valletta and Grand Harbour, very well equipped apartment, nice and helpful Frank. Perfect holidays!
Everything was perfect
Location was wonderful. Close to bus station. Extremely clean and spacious. Frank was a great host. Transport from the airport on arrival was definitely an asset. We were so pleased we secured this accommodation. Highly recommend it!
All was good. Difficult to find any negatives.
The location was within walking distances of dining, shopping and historical attractions. I have some difficulty walking and the rooms was very easy to move in. The charm is what we came to Malta for.and Plazzo was that and more.
Nothing really. Would have liked to stay longer. The host was warm and thoughtful.
We liked everything from the ambiance of the flats that struck the right balance between the flavour of a 16th century palazzo and all new mod cons; the immaculate cleanliness; and above all the generous, attentive (but never intrusive) hosting of the owner Frank, who made us feel entirely at home.
We have liked: - The location, better than should we have stayed at our convention hotel. - The owner's hospitality, full attention to his guests' needs yet very reserved. Frank manages his estate with pride and efficiency. - The classic elegance of the Palazzo, a real treat for lovers of antique and history. The owner's family spend vacation here since the XVII century ! - Everything works at its best, compared to many other hotels: wifi, hot water, kitchen facilities. You don't feel the disfunctional issues of old houses at all, although we were sleeping in a museum ! - Very quiet, not for those seeking for action and animation.
The rooms are a bit dark, in particular in the kitchen, perhaps to keep the heat down. We would have loved a full length mirror. Besides, what else could we wish for !!! Thank you Frank. The sisters.
The location was superb right in the center of the old town and the view from the terrace was magnificent. Frank (the owner) was very helpful and polite. Great for relaxation and museum-hunting!
Sometimes you can hear the neighbors from downstairs. Also the blinds don't close all the way so in the morning the sun wakes you up. But overall everything was great!
The Location was Perfect , not only for the City , but also for travelling around the Island. It was a pleasure to return to each day.
Maltese hospitality at its best Attention to detail and impeccable service by the owner and staff ensured we were well taken care of in this beautiful old building brimming with history. Maltese hospitality at its best starts with a hassle free airport taxi on arrival that whisks you to an amazingly spacious and elegantly furnished unit which though spot on in the centre of Valletta is yet so peaceful. We were there during a heat wave but the apartment was kept always cool by the excellent air condition which together with the large comfortable bed ensured we slept very comfortably. Maid calls daily and towels are changed regularly.
Nothing at all
We had a terrible experience with a number of sleepless nights in another establishment before we were so lucky to be able to transfer to this enchanting Palazzo. Everything surpassed our expectations from the warm welcome to the large stylishly appointed suite more fitting of a luxury hotel. The bathroom was modern with a powerful shower head and the bed large and comfortable laid with fine quality sheets. High speed wi fi essential for my husband's work and satellite TV were free of charge. We wished we could have stayed longer and we shall definitely return.
We wish we had known of this place before.
Location in the heart of the city. Style of the apartment and building Nicely arranged with old-style furniture. Really high effort of the owner to make the apartment and house nice and stylish. Owner's suport to the guests, his engagement and flexibility. Daily cleanning. Transport from the airport.
Apartment darker than on pictures. Hard materace. Air inside a little "heavy".
Excellent location with beautiful views of Grand Harbour from the roof top terrace. Frank played the role of a helpful host to make sure we got the most from our visit. The city of Valletta has so much history, everything as it was when created - a real step back in time. Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday spending plenty of time visiting but also de-stressing on the terrace with Maltese food and wine (Odyssey rosé wine available in Wembley store highly recommended)
We stayed for a week in an excellent room which to us resembled a suite in a luxury hotel more than a modest appartment. Frank was a lovely and accomodating host and it is excellent that he arranges free airport transfers from the airport to the appartment! We will definitely be staying here when we visit the wonderful city of valletta again!
The only thing that bothered me wad the hardness of the mattress. But then I do sleep with three duvets in my bed and innumerable pillows so I'm sure it's fine for normal people.
A very good ambiance created with the art work and furniture. Very central with good local wine bars and restaurants.Also near the bus station for trips to interesting places and bathing beaches.
The balcony was a bit narrow but then we had the last apartment.
Architecture and friendliness of Franke the owner
Swiss orthopaedic bed was very hard
The penthouse apartment is perfectly located to capture extraordinary views of Valletta harbour and to explore this beautiful city. The apartment is well equipped for self catering, comfortable with leather furnishings and tastefully decorated. It was a pleasure to return home to each day after exploring the wonders of Malta on warm sunny days. Our host Frank is charming and provided very useful information and an historical insight to this beautiful city. We are delighted to recommend Palazzo Citta Apartments and look forward to our next stay here on future visits to Malta.
Frank is very friendly man, good tips, nice place, bottle of wine in the room! Walking distance from main street in valletta, with many squares, shops, cafés ... + 10 minutes from busterminal where bussen to all over Malta stop
Bed rather hard, ok for me but can be tough to sleep on when you're used to very soft matress..
The apartment building has been beautifully restored retaining the best of antique and modern elements. The owner, Frank, was extremely helpful and was a mine of information on where best to eat nearby.
We enjoyed our holiday very much. Relaxing, wonderful location and fantastic views.
Beautiful location in Valletta; superbly friendly and helpful host and most enjoyable atmosphere and surroundings.
the possibility that the Palazzo becomes so popular that I might not be able to get an apartment in the future!
Beautiful apartment very close to the city centre, ideal for exploring the city and surrounds. 5 minutes to the bus terminus. Frank was very helpful.
Location, very helpful owner and many details that made our stay even better
Perfect property in all ways to experience Valleta. Frank was the consummate host.
Too short a stay
11 out of 10. The apartment, the location and the service were all fantastic. We will definitely return.
Quirky apartment in beautiful location with wonderful views and lovely private terraces, which would be great in better weather. Friendly, helpful owner. Great to find wine, bottled water, tea and coffee in flat. Lift made life easy with suitcases.
Unique Location Fantastic harbour and sea views from Penthouse balconies The owner as excellent host Quietness

Snoop Dogg - The Weed Iz Mine
Artist: Snoop Dogg
Featuring: Wiz Khalifa
Producer: Scoop DeVille
Album: Puff Puff Pass Tuesdays Series
Avg Rating: 4.0 ( 34 votes )
While most Hip-Hop weed heads are anticipating the release of Wiz Khalifa's Rolling Papers, weed veteran Snoop Dogg has dropped an early summer gem that might be one of the smoothest songs of 2011. This Weed Iz Mine is a part of the OG emcee's Puff Puff Pass Tuesdays series, and in my opinion it may be one of his best yet. Featuring Wiz himself, the two emcees rap about what they know best over a ridiculously laid-back and head-bobbin beat from Scoop Deville. The combination of Scoop and Snoop is almost perfect when it comes to that west coast flow and rhythm. Over some soothing synthesizers that pick up around the hook, Snoop creates a funky affair, reminiscence of that late 70's-sounding bassline similar to Evelyn King's I'm in Love. (Scoop if you read this, let me know if I'm right!) Accompanied by Wiz' guest 16 and an uncredited female hook that gives the song a catchy chorus, many fans will enjoy this G-Funk influenced jam poolside this summer.

Bill and Hillary are out driving in the country near Hillary `s hometown. They are low on fuel, so Bill pulls into a gas station for a fill-up. The attendant comes out and begins to pump gas into the first couple's tank. As he is doing this, he looks into the passenger window.
"Hey, Hillary. We used to date in high school, do you remember me?" he asks. They chat for a few minutes, Bill pays and the first couple leaves.
As they drive Bill is feeling very proud of himself and looks over at Hillary. "You used to date that guy? Just think what it would be like if you had married him," he says smugly.
Hillary looks at Bill and shrugs. The she replies, "Well I guess you'd be pumping gas and he would be the President."

Why the Nasdaq is Back
Back in the 1990s, the technology-dominated Nasdaq was best known for minting millionaires. Today, the Nasdaq is the red-headed stepchild of the U.S. stock market.
After all, the S&P has hit almost 40 new record highs in 2014. The venerable Dow Jones index has notched more than 20 new highs this year. Meanwhile, after almost 15 years, Nasdaq has yet to regain its highs.
Let's recall some history...
On March 10, 2000, the peak of the dotcom bubble, the Nasdaq hit an all-time high of 5,049.
Then the bubble burst, wiping 80% off the value of the index.
Fast forward 15 years, and the Nasdaq is now less than 10% off its previous highs. The Nasdaq closed yesterday at 4,671.
That means there's a good chance that by the time the Easter Bunny shows up at your doorstep in the spring of 2015, the Nasdaq will have reclaimed its prior highs. And with earnings for Nasdaq stocks forecast to grow 18% in 2015, it's more a question of "when" and not "if."
Today's Nasdaq: A Different Animal
Despite its mixed reputation, today's Nasdaq is a different animal from the days of the dotcom era.
Here's why...
First, Nasdaq itself is a lot smaller — certainly in terms of number of companies listed. Once listing as many as 4,715 companies, acquisitions and bankruptcies have reduced that number to 2,565. It's no longer home to every Tom, Dick and Harry tech stock with ".com" in its name. The numbers bear this out. Between 1999 and 2000, there were 630 technology initial public offerings (IPOs) on Nasdaq. The total for the next 13 years (!) combined dropped the number of technology IPOs to 462. That means it's a lot less risky compared to when it was partying like it was 1999.
Second, Nasdaq is no longer as tech-heavy as its reputation suggests. Sure, it still has a 48% weighting in information technology. But consumer discretionary and healthcare stocks now account for 17% and 16% of the Nasdaq. The remainder is made up of boring old consumer staples, industrials and financials.
Third, Nasdaq is no longer just about the "new, new thing." Yes, there are newish companies like Google (GOOGL) and Facebook (FB) that are changing the world. But there are also lots of well established tech-giant cash machines. At the height of the Internet boom in 2000, the median age for a newly public tech company was five. Today, it's double that. Like a reformed teenager who turned into a 30-something responsible adult, the Nasdaq has matured.
Finally, valuations are no longer off the charts. Back in 2000, the Nasdaq index reached a price-to-sales ratio of almost 6; now it's 2.2. Today, the Nasdaq's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is 23. That compares to 175 in the bad old days — for all 4,714 stocks. If you think Nasdaq is still home to highly speculative stocks, it's because of high-profile stocks like GoPro (GPRO), Netflix (NFLX) and LinkedIn (LNKD) whose P/E multiples range from 80 to 218. But these are the exception, not the rule.
The Unlikely Heroes of Nasdaq
There are a handful of familiar names in the Nasdaq "Top 10" from 2000. These include Cisco Systems (CSCO), Microsoft (MSFT), Intel (INTL) and Qualcomm (QCOM).
But these tech giants have not been the key to Nasdaq's rebound. It turns out that only about 727 of the Nasdaq stocks from the 1,233 still around from back then have hit new highs, according to USA TODAY.
The single biggest winner since March 2000? A beverage company, Monster Beverage (MNST). Back in 2000, Monster, then known as Hansen's Natural, traded for about 27 cents on a split-adjusted basis, according to S&P Capital IQ. Since then, shares have exploded 40,618% to $110.07.

SandRidge Energy Inc. said Tuesday it has clarified its position against a takeover attempt by dissident shareholder TPG-Axon, helping move the Oklahoma City energy company into compliance with a Friday court order in Delaware.
SandRidge approves director candidates proposed by dissident shareholder
The Oklahoma City energy company had previously said that if hedge fund TPG-Axon Capital were successful in its move to oust the SandRidge board, the action would constitute a "change of control" that could cost the company more than $4.3 billion. The company later backed off that figure.
Delaware Chancery Court Judge Leo E. Strine Jr. on Friday blocked the SandRidge board from soliciting votes in its ongoing proxy fight until it approved TPG-Axon's director candidates. The judge also said consent revocation votes in favor of the SandRidge board would not be counted until corrective action was taken.
SandRidge moved to meet that requirement Saturday, but did not announce the action until Tuesday morning.
"In light of the court's ruling, on March 9, 2013, the board approved of the director candidates proposed by the TPG-Axon group for the limited purpose of the change of control provisions of its indentures," SandRidge said in a statement Tuesday.
While acknowledging a new board would not constitute a change of control, SandRidge restated its opposition to the ongoing proxy fight.
"The board continues to oppose the election of the director candidates proposed by the TPG-Axon group, believes their election is not in the best interest of the company's stockholders and recommends that stockholders support the company's existing experienced board of directors," the company said.

Hi: 8° Lo:2°
By <b>david lawrence</b> Thursday 21 August 2014 Updated: 22/08 09:18
ARTISTS will be working in pubs and businesses across Alcester as part of the town's first ever arts festival next Saturday and Sunday (August 30 and 31).
And children will also be playing their part by entering a summer holiday artwork competition with the chance to win vouchers for art supplies.
The Mosaic festival will bring some of the area's top painters together for the two-day event and they will be rubbing shoulders with living statues and a caricaturist.
Sam Rath, chairman of Alcester's Chamber of Trade and Commerce, said there would be plenty going on during the event.
"We are very much a festival town and with the help of Warwickshire County Council's Operation Footfall backing, we can now celebrate the work of some of the amazing artists we have in this area.
"We will have people painting in pubs and cafes in the town centre with others working at various locations in High Street, Butter Street and Church Street.
"Beauty salons and hair salons are also looking to do something a little different as part of the festival and our living statues and caricaturist will put a smile on people's faces.
"We are hoping that as many businesses as possible enter into the Mosaic spirit to ensure we have another festival to remember."
Entry forms for the children's artwork competition are available from shops and pubs in the town and all the entries will be on display at Alcester's Globe House and the library in Priory Road.
The closing date is Tuesday (August 26) and there are three different age groups - each with £50 of prizes up for grabs.

10 Essentials
10 Essentials: WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie
The chic and sophisticated twins behind WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie fill us in on the city, the blog, and the hand balm that give them what they need (and nothing that they don't)
1. Dieter Rams, Less and More
Dexter: Dieter Rams has these 10 design principles that sum up this concept of less and more. Typically you would hear 'less is more,' but less and more is a little bit more of a dynamic philosophy.
Byron: People look for added value in all of the products they consume. I think that whether it's organic food or fuel-efficient cars, the question is how you bring something down to its minimal form, but at the same time deliver a maximum utility on social levels.
Dexter: Today, the 'more' might be a social element. Maybe it's the story, the narrative, the provenance of a product. I think that that's what the customer's looking for now: reduction of everything that doesn't need to be there, but adding in all of the things that need to be there.

M.K Davis on Paranormal Geeks Radio
in Paranormal
MK has such a wide array of knowledge and abilities that it's hard to explain this ParaGeek King! If you read his blog, The Davis Report, you know he doesn't hold back on subjects he's willing to tackle. His most outstanding YouTube Channel needs to be subscribed to because you aren't learning about Sasquatchery and such if you don't follow his work at eludicating details from videos sent to him from around the world. He also is on the radio show Bigfoot Central on the first Tuesday of every month at 8 pm EST and believe me, this show reveals so much more than you find anywhere else in mainstream cryptid searches.
MK is best known for being the first to handle the infamous Patterson-Gimlin original film and stabilizing it so that we could get a steady and clear look at it. He has done amazing work since so that we can elucidate every detail and determine for ourselves whether we think it's real or hoax.
He has spent mind-bending hours pouring over videos and photos, but he is also as much a field man as a software master. MK goes regularly to historic sites, ancient sites, and sites of infamous Sasquatch encounters and ancient giant finds. He reads extensively about the subjects and likes to understand the practical applications. He is as much an adventurer as an intellect and never stops asking the big questions and looking at evidence from every angle.

The Life and Death of Pete "The Pathfinder" Davis
in Spirituality
On Oct 31 at 6:00pm PST, Pierre Claveloux Davis, also known as Pete Pathfinder, passed away. The announcement was made by the Aquarian Tabernacle Church.
Pete was surrounded by loved ones, and went peacefully in his bed. Today, on our most holy day, when the barrier between the Worlds was at its thinnest, and on the 35th anniversary of the founding of his life's work, The Aquarian Tabernacle Church; our Grandmother Hekate, Patron Goddess of our Order came across and brought home with her one of her most devoted sons. Founder of the Aquarian Tabernacle Church, Panegyria Magazine, Spiral Scouts, The Pagan Information Network, and Woolston-Steen Theological Seminary, Pete's contribution to Wicca, and Pagan rights can never be overstated. From prison ministries, to Veterans rights, and his ability to standardize our faith through the Government, Pete's legacy, and the freedoms enjoyed from his actions will be felt throughout the duration of Wicca on Earth.
Today we will talk about Pete and honor him. To those not going to the funeral today (November 8th, 2014), I encourage to call in and share your thoughts and stories.

She sits on the Board of Directors for UniteWomen.org Action and served as their Executive Vice President of Political Action, also creating their "Unite Against Rape" campaign to raise public awareness of the issues of rape, human trafficking and violence against women.
Combining her love of history with her love of activism, Renee led UniteWomen.org - in partnership with several other prestigious organizations including the National Women's History Museum, the Sewall-Belmont House & Museum, and the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History - through the planning of the Suffrage Centennial Celebration, which was a week of events in D.C. leading up to a reenactment of the Woman Suffrage Parade of 1913.
Renee is a graduate of McNeese State University, where she won a medal for her Senior Thesis, and she is currently working on her M.A. at Louisiana Tech University. Renee runs a Facebook page focused on Women's History, and she lectures about the role of social media in modern politics

From Conception to Birth – The Three Trimesters
Most obstetricians determine the duration of pregnancy from the time elapsed since the mother's last menstrual period. Of course, this is usually about 2 weeks before ovulation and pregnancy actually occurs. The normal duration of pregnancy is 280 days or 42 weeks from the last menstrual period. Pregnancy is also divided into thirds, or trimesters. The three trimesters are each about 13 weeks in length.
The First Trimester
Fertilization occurs when the male sperm enters the female ovum. Very soon after conception, the early placenta begins to develop. By 4 weeks of gestation, the embryo is about 3/8ths of an inch long. Early fetal eyes and limb buds are present by 1 month once the fetal heart is completely formed by 6 weeks and can be seen on an ultrasound. Blood begins to pump at this time. Also, a ridge of tissue, which will become the fetal brain and spinal cord, Read more
Homebirth and Midwifery
Homebirth and Midwifery: A Gentle Birth Option
Recently, Missouri became the 28th state to allow midwives to practice the art of homebirth midwifery. In July 2008, Missouri joined these other states across the nation in supporting a woman's right to choose the site of her birth and a credentialed care provider. The CPM credential, or Certified Professional Midwife Credential is issued through NARM (North American Registry of Midwives). The CPM credential focuses on developing core competencies and standardized testing for midwives practicing in an exclusively out-of-hospital setting.
CPMs are not lay midwives. "Laypersons" implies an ignorance of lack of training in a specialized field of knowledge. By contrast, CPMs are specifically trained in the management of low-risk pregnancy and birth, and in the differentiation of low risk versus high-risk pregnancy. The CPM, unlike the doctor or nurse midwife, must attend a majority of the clinical component required for her certification Read more

Postpartum Support for the Modern Family
Women are faced with new challenges that make finding postpartum support more difficult than in proceeding generations. It used to be the norm for a woman to have her mother or 'in-laws' come and help out during the postpartum period. With families fragmented all over the country and women having children later in life, family support is not always practical nor does every new mom-to-be necessarily want her family to 'move in' while she is recuperating from the birth of a child. This gap in postpartum support can be filled with the help of a postpartum doula, or a night time baby nurse.
What is a baby nurse?
A baby nurse is a highly skilled newborn specialist who has extensive experience with multiples, (twins, triplets, etc.) and experience dealing with common special needs such as C-section recovery, premature infants, sleep problems, apnea monitors and infant reflux.

Breastfeeding Tips for New Mothers
Breastfeeding :From a New Mom's Perspective
I am a strong proponent of breastfeeding. It is the best thing for the baby and for you. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding for at least 1 year and longer if mutually desired by both the mother and child. The truth is – any amount of breastfeeding will be beneficial for you and your baby: 2 days, 2 months or 2 years. Stick with it as long as you can and know that you are doing the best thing for you and your baby. Breastfeeding mothers loose weight quicker, get protection against certain cancers, and have a host of other medical benefits. Breastfed babies are healthier and studies have shown that there are increases in their IQ scores as well.
Breastfeeding is also easy – no need to think about packing bottles and no worries about staying out longer than planned –

8 Must Have Baby Products
It is easy to be overwhelmed by the huge "must have baby products" handed to you by employees of stores where you register for baby products. When it comes down to it, simplicity in baby products is the easiest and best philosophy. You should look for products that develop with your baby while also helping your baby develop. While it is easy to immediately get caught up in major stroller combos, matching wipe warmers, and busy bouncy seats, babies have survived for hundreds of years without those items, and sometimes starting small and purchasing items as you need them can be an advantage. Maybe your baby does not like swinging motion, or maybe there isn't enough room in your home for a bassinet, crib, and pack and play. Give yourself time to learn your baby's needs and wants, then purchase accordingly. Make sure you look at smaller retail outlets Read more

Life Insurance: Protect Your Family's Future
Do you know if your family would have the financial resources to maintain their standard of living if something happened to you? According to the Life Insurance Marketing and Research Association, approximately 60 percent of Americans lack individual life insurance coverage and 33 percent have no life insurance protection whatsoever.1
The very thought of premature death may make you worry about the changes your family would need to make if your income were no longer available. A good way to protect your family's future is with life insurance.
Why do I need life insurance?
Life insurance provides protection from financial loss if you or a family member dies prematurely. Each situation is different, but life insurance is commonly used for final expenses, taking care of dependents and continuing business activities. Final expenses may include an illness, burial expenses, legal fees or outstanding debts.
Life insurance is especially helpful if your family exists on Read more

With rumors of Google rethinking its Google Wallet strategy due to lack of adoption, and ongoing stories about defections and reshuffling personnel, it seems the news about Google Wallet is a little grim these days. But Google is trying to do the right thing. A story from the Verge reported earlier this week that Google Wallet users found an extra $5 deposited to their prepaid accounts as token of apology for past security and provisioning issues.
The report said Google sent customers an email to explain:
"We are happy to announce that you can now add the Google Prepaid Card back to your wallet with the newest version of Google Wallet, and any funds that you previously had on the card should be restored, unless you contacted Money Network and asked for a refund of those funds. To add the Google Prepaid Card back, you will first need to update your Google Wallet application to the most recent version."
The issues began with a couple of security hiccups regarding the Google Wallet prepaid account. It turned out it wasn't 100 percent secure. To plug the hole, Google turned off provisioning of the prepaid accounts that are included in the Google Wallet while it worked on a fix. Even after the security issue was fixed, provisioning remained a pesky problem for many users.
Apparently everything is back in working order now, but the Verge reported the current version of Google Wallet is still presenting some odd behaviors.

Most Wanted is a solid and diverse racing game.
When it comes to racing games, I'm not particularly wooed by those that bill the police chases as a primary feature, so initially I had pretty low expectations for Need for Speed: Most Wanted. That's not the only reason though, as I'm reviewing it a half decade later the series now has hit a low point it would seem. The general consensus nowadays is that the series has worn its welcome and should take a few years off. Most Wanted seems like a collage of racing games, it doesn't want to do just one thing, rather it tries to check off as many modes as it can and weave them all into a cohesive single player experience, and it works to a degree.
In my opinion, the reason one would play a Need for Speed game over another arcade style racing game is the story and single player experience. In the game you play as a street racer who has just arrived in a new town and obviously wants to be the best. Well standing in your way is fifteen of the town's best racers. The top racer here is a pompous racer named Razor. You see first he's gonna take your ride, then he's gonna take your girl. The story in the game progresses (at the beginning and end at least) in live-action cut scenes, and the acting is so over the top, it's easily my favorite part of the game. After the beginning, the story doesn't progress through cut scenes, rather you have a cell phone with which you receive tips and learn more about your rivals. Since this is the method of informing you about everything after the beginning, it seems like the story just drops off as most of the messages you'll receive are general tips. There are fifteen racers you must face and it gets severely repetitive towards the end, I just wanted the game to be over as I wasn't learning anything new about the story or game play, maybe cutting a few racers out would've benefitted the game.
The game contains many different racing events; the standard lap racing is present and there is also a variation of this with the lap knockout race, where the person that crosses the line last after each lap is eliminated until there is only one racer. Sprint races task you with getting from point A to point B within the allotted time; drag races are here and are quite fun and give a great sense of speed but the memorization in the races makes these frustrating experiences. There is also tollbooth races which are essentially the sprint races, but with a checkpoint system and no competitors and the speed trap races, where you try to go as fast as you can through checkpoints and your overall speed is tallied up at the end.
To challenge racers on the Blacklist you first need to qualify to face them by completing a set number of races, milestones and accruing a set amount of bounty. Milestones vary from racer to racer like escaping a police pursuit that lasts a set amount of time or hitting a certain number of cop cars.
You get bounty by escaping cop pursuits and this makes up a large portion of the game. The cop chases can get very intense and can be overwhelming towards the end of the game. The more damage and longer you evade increases a gauge that determines the hostility of the cops and the amount and types of cops that will come after you. It's easily comparable to the wanted system from the Grand Theft Auto games. Also like the GTA games is the open world environment.
The game is set in the fictional city of Rockport. At the beginning you are limited in the amount of the city you can traverse, but as you progress more and more of it is accessible. While you can pick your events through a menu and go to them directly, you also have the option to set a GPS marker on it and drive to it. I took the GPS route early in the game, but really just going through a menu is quick and cuts out the chances of getting into a pursuit when you just want to race.
The developers did many neat tricks in the graphics department with the upgrade in console power. There is bloom lighting in the game which was massively decried at the onset of this generation and in the game it can be overwhelming. When coming out of tunnels, usually the sun will be too bright and you won't be able to see anything for a second or two and this can be detrimental if you're in a heated race. The speed lines are great, as are your taillight blurring when using boost and overall the sense of speed is good.
The audio in the game is also well done. The cars sound like they should and in general the voice acting fits the game and there is a good amount of it. The soundtrack I didn't care for too much, it's a mix of electronic rock, metal and rap and in my opinion it all sounds kind of nasty, can't think of a better way to put it. The pursuit music I thought was good and a nice change of pace from the soundtrack; it heightened the intensity of the pursuits. I believe the servers in the game are now offline so I can't say anything about that but the game does have local multiplayer and tons of stuff to do there and there are also multiple single player modes besides the story including a challenge series which tasks you with completing certain races and objectives.
All in all the game was enjoyable and the story it did have was funny and mildly entertaining. The game plays well and seems like a standard for any competing game to strive for. I enjoyed my time with the game more than I thought I would.
