WASHINGTON, November 13, 2013 — It appears that amnesty for the millions of illegal immigrants living in the United States will not move forward in the GOP controlled House of Representatives. Speaker of the House John Boehner has made it clear that he has no intention of bringing amnesty to the floor for a vote.
The Speaker had this to say.
SEE RELATED: Immigration Reform: Beyond Hispanic communities
"We've made it clear that we're going to move on a common sense, step-by-step approach in terms of how we deal with immigration … The idea that we're going to take up a 1,300-page bill that no one had ever read, which is what the Senate did, is not going to happen in the House. And frankly, I'll make clear we have no intention of ever going to conference on the Senate bill."
Perhaps the House is sick of being stuck with bills that no one has read.
But what does this mean? Beyond the idea of amnesty not passing or even being brought to the House floor, what does it mean politically? Beyond the political hatred, beyond the name calling, what are the consequences of this?
Why did John Boehner, reluctant and often embattled "king" of the House Republican establishment decide he would not even deign to bring the matter to the floor? How is it that the man who refused to take Democrats to the mat on Obamacare would, after several months of gossip around the Hill of secret deals between Reid and Boehner over amnesty, suddenly come out and say, "we thought about it but, hard pass kids."
SEE RELATED: John Boehner's war on liberty
Do not pass go, do not collect amnesty.
There are many possible reasons for this particular turn of events. Boehner could be attempting to show the conservative voting base and the Tea Party that he actually is a conservative. While the GOP civil war rages mostly on the Senate front, the House seems to be sitting there like the forgotten theater, or the goalie in a very one-sided hockey game. "If anyone was wondering, we're still here."
Senate Tea Party and establishment Republicans have been making their waves with their back and forth bickering and name-calling. Perhaps this is the speaker's way of bringing attention back to the House. This move could show the conservative base that Boehner is serious about their values and representing them.
Boehner smells blood in the water. President Obama's approval rating is 42 percent, and the scandals have taken a toll on his credibility. His repeated promises that no one would lose their coverage because of the ACA have been debunked, and he was forced to issue a sort of "I'm sorry I'm not sorry" apology.
If Boehner is smart, he will paint this bill and this effort the in the same light as Obamacare. Numerous Democrats have not read the bill, very few are aware what is in it, and the country cannot have another bill that "you need to pass to find out what's in it."
It sounds more as though the Democrats just want to mount a token immigration fight just so the Republicans can vote against it and take a hit in the polls. It seems as though the bill was poorly put together, it is far too open ended, and the Democrats know it.
Designed to fail? Maybe. Immigration is just being used as a means to take focus off of Obamacare, stretch Republican assets, and press on with the Democrats' agenda. However, the Republicans don't really need to expend any effort to make Obamacare look bad; it is doing that on its own. But just in case, Boehner will kill the amnesty tree before it can take root on the House floor, taking the wind of immigrations sails.
Boehner sees that Obama is weakened, and by extension the political force that he can put behind his allies in Congress is weakened. This affords Boehner the opportunity to say flat out, "no."
Boehner cannot afford another Democratic victory, especially on something like amnesty. That would be too much. Though he was not in power when the ACA passed, he cannot be remembered as the speaker who allowed millions of illegal aliens to obtain citizenship and vote Democrat for the next century. They can afford the thrashing and the name calling they will inevitably endure at the hands of "this is what's best" progressives, but not the millions of votes that will swing left when millions of illegals are given the vote.
This is coming as House Democrats seek to appear tough on Obamacare by demanding that Obama fix the website by Friday, a tall order that is probably meant to fail. It's a win win for them; if it's fixed by then they can turn to the Republicans and say hey, he listens to us, let's move forward. If it isn't fixed, they go on record for being hard on Obamacare to their constituents during what will probably be a brutal campaign cycle.
Boehner may be making his case for a 2016 presidential run. His name has been bounced around by many who would like him to take the top spot, but many see his brand of politics as being spineless. His flat out refusal to negotiate with the Senate on an issue as crucial as amnesty could also be a play to get a few points on his presidential stock portfolio, as so many other 2016 hopefuls have been doing in their respective fiefdoms.
Boehner's refusal to bring immigration to the House floor could mean all of these things; they are not mutually exclusive. It is also possible that Boehner is listening to Senate and House Republicans and responding to their wishes, but given that the GOP is in a period of self-loathing and civil war, maybe that's not the best explanation.
In any event, it seems amnesty is not going anywhere for now. The bill that appeared to have more holes than Swiss cheese and more unanswered questions than the series finale of Lost is as dead as Marley's ghost.

That is my macro. You just hit it once, and it works FANTASTICALLY. I recommend everyone pick it up - in case you're confused, Divine Sacrifice and Divine Guardian are two separate buffs that both activate (provided you have all the talent points) when you hit DSac.
The Divine Sacrifice buff is party-wide and re-directs damage to you.
The Divine Guardian buff is raid-wide and does NOT redirect ANY damage to you, it simply reduces raid damage taken by 20%!
so if i want that nice 20% DR, i need to spec 2/2 imp divine guardian correct? and if i dont have that specced, i shouldnt bother using it?
True Story. Although I haven't looked at the /in 0.5 macros too much....
I just spam click the /cast /cancelaura macro.
I've found wonderful new uses for Divine Guardian in the newest wing of ICC and the raid damage from Festergut.

Anyone else finding that the server seems to take a long time to acknowledge that Divine Sacrifice has been cast and removed? From my combat logs it looks like there was almost a 3 second delay between when I cast Divine Sacrifice and when it was removed from everyone in my group. During that time I managed to take 7k in redirected Saber Lash damage from Lord Marrowgar.

Chapter 1: The Butt End of the Universe
It was winter. As it turned out, it was one of the worst winters on record, but I wasn't to know that then, when the autumn leaves made everything look pretty. By the time spring came records were being rewritten.
Of course, being in a new country and continent I didn't know what normal was and saw and felt everything for the first time. It was my first ever trip to the USA, which was ironic since I've held a US passport since I was a few weeks old, although I'm told Americans don't get irony. Getting me a US passport was one of the few things my mother did for me before buggering off back there. Maybe she entertained an idea of taking me with her, however briefly. It didn't stick though and she left me and my dad to muddle through together without her, leaving me dual citizenship which wasn't much of a replacement for a mother's love and care.
Unlike me, Dad wasn't a stranger to the US. He'd been over many times to do book tours and meet with agents and publishers. He'd even been on a few TV programmes. It was his writing that made us move, he said he wanted to absorb himself in US culture so he could write the great American novel, or failing that one that would make a heap of money. I'd go with the heap of money any time, culture is over rated.
Thanks to his marriage to mum, which as far as I knew had never officially been dissolved, Dad got a green card so it was easy for us to up and move and although I did that teenage passive aggressive thing and held as much emotional blackmail over him as I could, I was actually looking forward to it. How many British kids got to spend a year in the US?
I think the other reason Dad wanted to go was to get me away from Felix. Not that he didn't like him, he just knew what could happen to teenagers in love - the result had been staring him in huge face for seventeen years.
We were meant to go for September, for the new school year, but my dad was never magnificent about organisation so we didn't go until the end of November, just before Thanksgiving.
When Dad said "America" I had visualised sun, palm trees and beaches. If I thought about the city, the bright lights of New York came to mind. So when he said "Wisconsin" the first thing I had to do was get out a map to see where the hell it was and then I tried to slay him with a look.
"Seriously Dad? You have fifty bloody states to choose from and you go for the dairy capital of the US, the 'Badger State'? What's wrong with California, New York or even Montana?"
"Gary lives in Wisconsin. He says it's very nice."
"Who is Gary?"
"You know, the freelance book designer I told you about. We became friendly."
"Gary the gay one?"
"Yes, he is gay."
"And he know you're not, right?"
"He knows I have a daughter."
"Like that's a badge saying 'straight'. So Gary the gay lives in Wisconsin and that's why we are going there, not somewhere a little more fun?"

text: Comeback of the Year & Disappointment of the Year 23 December, 2012 Comeback of the Year: Felipe Massa Dec.23 (Grand Prix 247) Our choice for the best comeback of the year will no doubt raise eyebrows as the natural candidate is Kimi Raikkonen, but we opted for Felipe Massa because the Brazilian was all but written off by mid-season this year. Indeed, various members of the media in Italy were virtually demanding that he be axed. Credit to Ferrari as they showed extreme and unwavering loyalty in the Brazilian who nearly died in one of their cars back in 2009 and has since never really been the same driver who so very nearly won the title in 2008. Nevertheless in the final half of 2012 he delivered faultless performances to re-establish himself within the team and returned to the podium twice after an absence of nearly two years. A contract extension with the Maranello squad was his reward and the smiles were more frequent. Great comeback Felipe! Massa reflected, "In the first half of the year, I was worried about renewing my contract," he said. I did not think that Ferrari would really wait right to the end of the summer before deciding on the driver line-up for next year. It's true that ever since I've been at Maranello, there have always been rumours about me: already in my first year there was a list of drivers who were supposed to take my place and it was the same this year, with a lot of names and plenty of speculation." "At the start, I paid too much attention to these things, but then, in August, I told myself I should only think about racing and having fun and so I began to really drive, to have the right feeling with the car and to drive as quickly as I know how. Now I feel very strong and the results were there to see in the last nine races: so I am optimistic for the future – mine and Ferrari's," concluded the Brazilian. Disappointment of the Year: Bruno Senna Bruno Senna was axed from Williams at the end of the 2012 season, a year earlier he had been axed from Lotus indicating that the Brazilian simply did not have the right stuff or did not do enough to impress two teams steeped in Formula One experience and tradition. Sadly his season alongside Pastor Maldonado was lack lustre, admittedly not helped by the fact that the team's reserve Valtteri Bottas took over his cockpit on many FP1 sessions, and ironically the year started with a spin for the Brazilian on the opening lap in Melbourne and ended with a spin on the opening lap at Interlagos. A return with a top team is probably the only step left for Senna to take in F1, but for now it is unlikely that anyone will come calling. "Since the beginning of my program with Williams I accepted that I had to share the car with Valtteri Bottas in 15 Fridays as a part of his preparation for a likely début in 2013", Senna explained. "I had some notable achievements this year, such as the fastest lap in the Belgian GP, my favourite track, scoring points on a regular basis and making up many many places through the races." "Regularly racing in the top ten has certainly been a step forward in my still relatively short career and has allowed me to further sharpen up my race craft. Working with a competitive and supportive engineering team like Williams has left me well prepared for the next step in my career", Senna concluded. Subbed by AJN. Tweet Joe Kinnear Massa is comeback of the year? Gimme a break. Butterfly @Joe Kinnear: Well said. durptron5000 Bruno Senna had his best year this year…people always forget after Ayrton's death he was not allowed to race. He has almost a decade less experience than his competitors. If anyone disappointed it was Schumi, Grosjean, Di Resta. C'mon Yalla…. Matster We'll pick Massa because he did nothing for most of the season and then scores 2 podiums and showed pace in very few races despite racing in for the past few years. We won't give it to Kimi who scored many podiums including a win as well as third place in the championchip, beating 3 drivers who were competing for the championchip the last 2 years whilst he was rallying? How can you not give it to Kimi? At least he'll be consistent. Everyone thought Massa was back in '10 and look where he ended up….. walshy u guys really should give a guy credit(kimi) instead of being so brazil and ferrari biaised kimi was the outstanding driver of the year and with a little more straight line speed would have been very close to alonso and vettel pitwall I think a few people will be surprised with Massa next season. I would have voted for Kimi as well but I don't think a vote for Felipe is too far off the mark. Just shows how much mental strength it takes to go quickly all the time… just ask Lewis… and he had a broken heart not a fractured skull.

2013-04-27 20:53:06 Great display of the park's benefits. Only one question: Where the heck is it? Can you give me a cross street or two? I'm not stupid just curious since I don't know all of the areas of Davis. —fknochenhauer
Click the map icon at the top of the page (although I agree that a description would be helpful, too. I'll cook one up). —CovertProfessor
2013-09-12 11:49:28 Went to South Fork today for first time. Left confused. The gate to the parking area was locked even though the sign listing the preserve's hours stated it was open for use. Had to park on side of road. Could not find the north trail. There is a permanent fence blocking off all access I could see running from the creek bank all the way to the levee. There was also a temporary fence blocking off access part way down main loop by grassland. (I am guessing this may be for the sheep, but there was no sign or anything to let me know when the path may be open again.) The site looks like an awesome place to go birdwatching particularly along the riparian stretch, but I don't understand how I am to access it. Can someone clue me in to what I must be missing? Thanks! —KateGiorgi
Fences are made to be figured out, through, over, under, around...—BrianKenyon

Jazz Pharmaceuticals Announces Support For National Campaign Designed To Curb Prescription Drug Abuse
DUBLIN, Nov. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: JAZZ) announced today its support of The Partnership at Drugfree.org's recently launched national action campaign, The Medicine Abuse Project. The initiative is intended as a multi-year public awareness and education campaign designed to curb abuse of prescription medicine among teens.
A new study conducted by The Partnership at Drugfree.org found that medicine abuse is a growing problem among teens in the U.S., with one in six teens taking medicine to get high or change his or her mood. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, drug overdoses now surpass car crashes as the leading cause of accidental death in the U.S., and opioid pain relievers are responsible for more overdose deaths than cocaine and heroin combined.
"The need for a serious national medicine abuse prevention effort and our strong commitment to patient safety are the reasons we became an active supporter in The Medicine Abuse Project," said Bruce Cozadd, chairman and chief executive officer of Jazz Pharmaceuticals. "As a specialty biopharmaceutical company that makes products for highly complicated and specialized disease states, we understand the importance of incorporating systems to ensure the safe and appropriate use of our products. We believe that we can make a meaningful difference in this effort to combat medicine abuse."
"The majority of teens who abuse medicines get them from family and friends," said Steve Pasierb, president and chief executive officer of The Partnership for Drugfree.org. "We need to change that. With the support of partners like Jazz Pharmaceuticals, physicians, parents and teens themselves will be more aware of the dangers of medicine abuse."This important collaborative effort to raise awareness and combat medicine abuse reflects Jazz Pharmaceuticals' commitment to patient safety. As part of The Medicine Abuse Project, the company encourages individuals to sign the Pledge at MedicineAbuseProject.org, and many of its employees have already participated in this effort. About Jazz Pharmaceuticals Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc is a specialty biopharmaceutical company focused on improving patients' lives by identifying, developing and commercializing innovative products that address unmet medical needs. The company has a diverse portfolio of products in the areas of narcolepsy, oncology, pain and psychiatry. The company's U.S. marketed products in these areas include: Xyrem ® (sodium oxybate), Erwinaze ® (asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi), Prialt ® (ziconotide) intrathecal infusion, Luvox CR ® (fluvoxamine maleate), FazaClo ® (clozapine, USP) HD and FazaClo LD. Outside of the U.S., Jazz Pharmaceuticals also has a number of products marketed by its international division, EUSA Pharma. SOURCE Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc

On the UK Tour, does anyone think that there could be a chance of a special show like the HOB which was for LPU members only? Or no?
The UK tour?? Are you talking hypothetically or has something been announced that I don't know about? !
same here. there's talk of a UK tour but no confirmed dates as of yet I believe
Castle of Glass
next month or two?
I'm excited!
I held off booking my holiday waiting for dates but couldn't wait any longer.... I just know it's going to be first week in October that they tour!!
Hope they come to Birmingham! I'm so going to be there!
I hope they play Newcastle again - I don't really fancy the drive over to Sheffield or Manchester all that much!
Just as long as they go north of London.... I can't afford to go to London again - hotel costs down there kill me!
I hope they come to the M.E.N again.
No, it hasn't been announced but probably will be soon, i was just making guesses.. Hope they play somewhere like the O2!
PLEASE Linkin Park, please, I'm begging you! I'll kneel if I have too!
I'm one of your biggest fans, you'd make my, well year.
Oh if you could play at the O2 again, well you'd make this dude mega happy. Hell I'll happily buy your album 4 times if I have too.

Eyjafjallajokull - pronounced ay-uh-fyat-luh-yoe-kuutl-ul - is the name of the Icelandic volcano that threw up plumes of ash causing airspace across Europe to close down.
Icelanders have pointed out the rest of the world's mispronunciations of the volcano's name, which has been described as "strange" even by native Icelanders.
Eliza Geirsdottir Newman, an Icelandic musician, sings an exclusive song for Al Jazeera that clarifies the pronunciation of Eyjafjallajokull.
The video below includes a bouncing ball to help karaoke singers pronounce the volcano's name.

Although the Constitution gave the Congress the power to "Establish Post Office and Post Roads," it was not until the Postal Act of 1792 was affirmed in 1794 that it finally created the American postal service. That act provided for the postmaster general, set rates, and regulated the postal system.
It also launched three guiding principles that shaped the United States postal service: that it be self supporting, return any profit to the Treasury, and that Congress, not the postmaster general, was to establish the post roads. The latter provision opened the postal service even more to the vagaries of the political process and caused it to attune its collective ear to the voice of the people. Thus, through petition and intercourse with their elected officials, the ever moving American people prodded the post office to establish new routes and offices throughout the growing nation.
The prodding worked. In 1792 less than 6,000 miles comprised the mail routes. Scattered along the post roads, which mainly stretched from Maine to Georgia, were 195 post offices or stations. The numbers jumped to 21,000 miles and 903 offices by 1800 and over 100,00 miles and 6,500 offices by 1830. 1836 saw a continuing frenzy of expansion. 28,000 miles were added during that year and carriers totaled nearly twenty six million miles encumbered by the mails.
In the beginning the system was primitive. The mail was often carried from post to post in large portmanteaus. At each destination the postmaster would pull out the mail meant for his post and send the portmanteau blithely on its way. Later distribution offices, which sorted and processed the mails, were opened. Mail was often mangled beyond legibility or lost. Deliveries were often delayed due to poor roads, less than ideal conditions, or poor performance by contractors and carriers.
1836 was a pivotal year for the postal service. On July 1 of that year the provisions of the Postal Act of 1836 went into effect. The new law was the result of yet another of Congress' periodic investigations of the postal service. Like the others it was in response to complaints of poor service and cost overruns. As noted, the postal service was supposed to be self supporting, returning any surplus to the treasury. As with other aspects of life, this was easier legislated than accomplished.
The postal service was often able to turn a profit over the years, but it also suffered the inevitable lean years. Sometimes, as after the Panic of 1819, it was partially due to the exigencies of the economic situation. At others, it was due to poor management and too rapid expansion. The constant call for increased services often led to the assumption of unprofitable routes and increasing costs. A major investigation in 1821 blamed the above for fostering shortfalls. That investigation came during the administration (1814-1823) of Postmaster General Return Meigs, who had done much to improve the Post Office.
Meigs was succeeded by John McLean, who was able to return the post office to the profit column by keeping a close eye on operations and contractors and more judiciously increasing routes. Also. instead of returning the surplus to the treasury, he used it to finance new routes and services. By 1826 not even his skills could keep up with a Congress that added still more routes in response to constituents' pleas. The deficits returned. McLean, in part due to the acclaim surrounding his handling of the postal service, was appointed to the Supreme Court in 1829 before his reputation was tarnished.
It was his successor, William Barry, who was to suffer. Barry had the misfortune of presiding over the Post Office during more lean years. The surpluses that had accumulated under McLean had run out. Continued route expansions and Barry's poor management led to deficits which once again sparked investigations and outcry. Despite everything, Barry did begin to make improvements in the system toward the end of his reign. However, his reputation and his policy of replacing long time employees with Jacksonian Democrats led to his ouster in 1835.
Amos Kendall, a power in Jackson's Kitchen Cabinet, took over from Barry. Kendall, benefiting from Barry's improvements and rising revenues, saw the surplus return in 1835. So much so that, in his 1836 annual report, he called for a postage reduction.
It was also during Kendall's tenure that Congress passed the aforementioned Postal Act of 1836. The bill reorganized the postal service and sought to correct administrative deficiencies. Many of its 46 sections dealt with the awarding of contracts and other fiscal matters. It also rejected the call by Jackson and others that the mails be censored of "inflammatory materials." This clamor was spurred by the sending of anti-slavery tracts via the mails, especially in the South. However, this section was often ignored and angry citizens were known to storm post offices, seizing and burning abolitionist materials.
Additionally, the bill altered the method of handling the service's finances. Henceforward, yearly budgets were formulated and submitted to Congress. All postal revenues, not just surpluses, were turned over to the Treasury Department. Thus, 1836 was quite literally the year the the postal service closed out the old books and began anew.
The appointment of postmasters was one of the "spoils" of Presidential politics in the early 1800s; whoever won the Presidency got to fill postmasterships with his political appointees. Since few of these persons were known to the President and the Postmaster General, recommendations were frequently accepted from interested Senators and Congressmen. Experience helped, good judgment and honesty were valued, but the main requirement for a postmastership was party loyalty. Through the 1830s, virtually all new postmasters were Jacksonian Democrats.
A postmastership was certainly a job worth having. Under an 1825 law, postmasters received no salary, but were entitled to a share of their postal revenues at a scale ranging from 30 percent for the first $100 worth of postal business they did each quarter to 8 percent of all above $2400 until the commission reached its maximum of $2000. Very few postmasters came close to that maximum (twice the 1836 salary of the Governor of Indiana) and most kept another business -- frequently a store in addition to their postal position.
The work of the postmaster was challenging but not overtaxing. He was usually referred to as postmaster of a town, although his "jurisdiction' extended to the suburbs and into the country, until it met the territory of the next town's postmaster. People from all over the town and surrounding area brought their letters to the postmaster, who listed them in his ledger, making special note if postage was paid in advance. As people came in to pick up their mail, he collected the postage on each letter and noted the charges in his book. When letters were received, he sent notices to the newspaper so the names of the recipients could be advertised.
The postmaster sorted the letters from his town for delivery. Letters for each post office along the local post road were bundled and set aside to be sent when the stage or rider for that route stopped by. Indiana mail addressed to more distant towns was sent to Indianapolis, or Cincinnati, to be forwarded to its destination.
Postmasters, as a rule, did not deliver mail to individuals; people picked their letters up at the post office. There were a few exceptions: a postmaster in Lebanon reportedly carried the mail in his hat, and delivered letters as he chanced to meet their recipients. Most postmasters, however, were more content to let the people come to them for their mail.
The post office itself was a government office established to receive and deliver mail. In most towns it shared quarters with the postmaster's other business, often taking a corner of the store or business office. Indianapolis and some larger towns had separate post office buildings by the mid-1830s. These were the designated points for pickup and delivery of the mail from the stages or riders contracted to make these deliveries. A post stop was a less-official institution. This was frequently a spot on a post route between post offices where mail from the surrounding area was gathered to be handed to the post rider or stage driver area was gathered to be handed to the post rider or stage driver for delivery to the next post office. Little information is available on these stops, so it is uncertain if any mail was actually left for the nearby residents, or if they had to go to the nearest post office.
During the early 1800s, postal service routes or post roads were designated by acts of Congress. Any citizen or town could petition the Postmaster General for a post road. Generally, almost every town wanted a post road and mail delivery at a post stop; a town with a post stop wanted a post office. A post road offered mail delivery and communication with the "outside world", and competition was keen for routes. Once voted on by Congress, a route would be laid out and contracts offered for mail service along the route.
Post roads were laid out beginning at one post office and ending at another, frequently passing by other post offices and post stops along the route. Deliveries were made from the initial post office to the other offices along the route -- and frequently at other stops, not officially post offices -- and the final post office. The mail was picked up at this last post office and the route and deliveries were reversed back to the initial post office. These post roads could be of any length, from five or six miles to upwards of two hundred miles.
Once a route was selected, bids were solicited for the contract to carry mail over that route. Both stage companies and individuals were welcome to bid for these contracts, the lowest bidder receiving the yearly commission. It should be noted that these were not officially postal employees like postmasters; they were hired solely to transport the mail from one point to another on a set schedule. They were paid a set fee for this service and did not keep books or collect postage.
Indiana in the 1830s had some fairly typical routes. Route No. 3031 ran from Richmond to Peru, the contract being let to L.R. Brownell for an annual consideration of $340. The route included Greenfork, Economy, Palmyra, Blountsville, Muncytown, Cranberry, Greenberry and Marion, a distance of one hundred seven and one-half miles. Over routes from Indianapolis to Madison and from Indianapolis to Cincinnati three weekly trips were made in four-horse post-coaches. James H. Wallace & Co. received $1893 yearly compensation for carrying the mails over the Madison route which included Greenwood, Franklin, Edinburg, Woodruff (supplied alternately), Columbus, Scipio, Vernon, Lancaster and Wirt. James Jones & Co. covered the one hundred thirteen miles three times each week for a compensation of $2000 per annum on the Cincinnati route. The revenue from passengers and packages on these stage routes no doubt supplemented the receipts from the transportation of the mails.
There were many short routes on which contracts were let. John Boner of Vernon received $25 per annum for service on a six-mile route, from Milton in Wayne County to Jacksonburgh in the same county. Wesley Goodwin received $50 per annum for his weekly trips from New Castle to Milton. There must have been more spirited bidding on some routes than others. Route No. 3032, eighty-three miles from Indianapolis to Lafayette netted the contractor only $398 per annum. This route ran by way of Piketon, Rodman's, Lebanon, Thorntown, Frankfort, Jefferson, Prairieville, Huntersville, and Dayton. J.O. and G.M. Orchards, owners of the "Temperance Inn" at Bloomington, were the contractors of the Louisville-Indianapolis route.
Many contractors operated a number of these routes. John Boner of Vernon was the successful bidder on six different routes. Since it would have been difficult for one man to deliver on six routes going in six directions, it seems likely that he sublet some of the routes to others. This was probably a common practice, particularly on the shorter and less-profitable routes.
Post roads were generally designated along the major roads of the state. By the mid-1830s, all of the State Roads were also designated as post roads, and many of the smaller roads used by the stage lines were also so designated. Much of the mail carried over these routes was carried by the stage lines. In some cases, the stages even arrived before the roads; Chicago and Green Bay had stage and mail service by 1836, before any real roads were built to either city.
Mail carried by stage was transported in leather chests or containers which were unlocked by postal officials at each stop. Mail for that stop was removed, and mail received by that office added to the chest. The container was then relocked and the stage sent on to its next post office.
Along the smaller post routes, delivery was often made by a single carrier on horseback, sometimes on foot. Mail was carried in his saddlebags and delivered to the postmaster at each stop. On the whole, most of the mail coming into Indiana probably came in by stage, but once distributed, more was carried by these single carriers within the state.
Letters looked physically different than today. Envelopes were not used. Generally, the ends of the letter were folded in toward each other, then the bottom folded up and the top folded down over it.
1848 William Conner letter
The top was then sealed to the bottom by a wafer, a small disc which was moistened and stuck between the top and bottom of the letter (black wafers were sometimes used on letters announcing a death). If the person opening the letter were not careful, part of the letter could be torn off when the letter was opened by breaking the wafer.
The prepared "envelope" was then addressed and taken to the post office. The postmaster determined the charge for postage and noted this on the corner of the letter. He usually noted the name of his post office (usually the town name) and the date mailed. This was sometimes done in manuscript, but often a wooden or metal stamp, similar to our modern ring dater, was used. The letter was then added to the next mail going in the direction of its address.
Other special markings were sometimes added to these letters. If the postage was paid in advance, the word "PAID" was noted next to the postage indicator. If the letter was to be carried on a ship (from towns on waterways), the name of the ship was frequently also noted on the envelope.
It should be especially noted that postage stamps were not used in the 1830s. The idea of stamps originated with Rowland Hill in England in 1840, and the U.S. didn't issue its own stamps until 1847. By then, postal rates had been standardized at 5 cents under 300 miles, 10 cents over 300 miles, for a one-sheet letter.

|Customers queue to enter a Northern Rock branch in Bromley, in southeast London. Anxious customers of British bank Northern Rock rushed to withdraw their savings Friday, forming lengthy queues in front of branches after the lender was bailed out by the Bank of England. (AFP/Ben Stansall)
British bank hit by panic withdrawalsSeptember 13, 2007
LONDON - Anxious customers of British bank Northern Rock rushed to withdraw their savings on Friday, forming queues in front of branches after the lender was bailed out by the Bank of England.
The central bank came to the rescue of Britain's fifth-biggest home loan provider, which said it was facing severe difficulties raising cash to cover its liabilities amid the ongoing global credit squeeze.
From London to Edinburgh, panicking customers were pictured on British television channels crowding outside Northern Rock branches to withdraw their savings.
Shares in the group, which issued a profits warning on Friday, plunged 31.77 percent to 436 pence nearing the close, dragging the European banking sector lower as investors fretted over potential difficulties elsewhere.
International ratings agency Standard and Poor's cut its rating on the company and warned of further downgrades if credit conditions worsened.
But analysts forecast that the troubled bank was very unlikely to go bust despite the appearance of a "bank run."
A bank run is when customers withdraw their savings en masse because of fear a lender will become insolvent, which can cause it to go bankrupt.
"Northern Rock's problems are a consequence of its particular reliance on the money markets to fund its mortgage activities," said Global Insight economist Howard Archer.
"Furthermore, all of the indications are that it is in no danger of going bust and that it has a good quality loan book."
S & P said that the bailout by the Bank of England "considerably strengthens Northern Rock's funding and liquidity."
Northern Rock is the first major British financial institution to be severely hit by the credit crunch sparked by the US home loan crisis.
A global credit crunch erupted last month, sparked by a crisis in the US subprime, or high-risk, mortgage sector.
Banks became nervous about lending to each other because of fears about bad investments linked to US home loans, leading to a shortage of cash for lending purposes.
Central banks around the world have pumped billion of dollars of emergency funds into the banking sector to enable banks to continue normal lending practices.
The Bank of England said it had made available an unspecified amount of cash to Northern Rock in the form of a liquidity facility.
This "will be available to help Northern Rock to fund its operations during the current period of turbulence in financial markets while Northern Rock works to secure an orderly resolution to its current liquidity problems," the bank said.
A Northern Rock spokesman sought to reassure customers, saying that "savings customers' deposits are safe" adding that "there will be no impact on our borrowers."
However, many customers were simply ignoring similar assurances from government ministers and Bank of England (BoE) officials.
"I have withdrawn all my money," said one worried customer who wished to remain anonymous outside a branch in Harrow, north west London.
"I know everyone has been urged not to panic but I just felt safer moving the money somewhere else rather than worrying about Northern Rock's financial position over the next few days," she added.
Another customer added: "I'm not sure about this, even though they say it is going to be all right.
"If they are short of funds, what happens to our funds?"
As well as hitting lenders globally, the world credit squeeze played a major part in the dollar slumping to a record low against the euro this week, and caused stock markets to plunge earlier this month.
Northern Rock warned Friday that its 2007 profits could be 147 million pounds (214 million euros, 297 million dollars) lower than expected, sending its share price plunging by nearly a third in London trading.
"It will be a slog after a day like this to repair the bank and we are up for the slog," Northern Rock chief executive Adam Applegarth told Sky News.
Britain's finance minister Alistair Darling, who authorised the BoE to help the bank, said its problems might have been avoided had US banks not been so willing to offer cash to borrowers with poor credit histories.
Darling said it had been "some time" since the Bank of England had been placed in such a situation, while some commentators suggested it last occurred about 30 years ago.
"My objective all the time is not just to have a strong and stable economy but to ensure we've got stability in the banking system," Darling told BBC radio.
"That is why I authorised the Bank of England to provide that support for Northern Rock, it was the right thing to do."
