Hotels, lodges and resorts of Romania definitive stamp series of 1991
|» Add comment
Modern Romanian stamps are likely to cause shivers for most stamp collectors, but personally I'm quite fond of them. As the title says the topic of this post is Romanian 'Hotels, lodges and resorts' definitives series issued in 1991, and the varieties within. This is a a very common stamp series, likely just about every worldwide collector has got some stamps from the series in their collection. So it's surprising how poorly documented the series is: major stamp catalogs simply by-pass the varieties with very short footnote (Michel) or completely ignore them (Scott).
The stamps
The series started in 1991, just few years after the fall of communism in eastern Europe. On simplified level, the series contains 21 face different stamps issued in 4 releases during 1991.
First release was 27th August 1991 containing values of 1, 5, 9 and 10 Lei:
The second run was released on 8th October 1991 containing values of 2, 4, 18, 25 and 30 Lei:
Third run released on 14th November 1991 containing values of 6, 8, 20, 45, 60 and 80L. The 80L stamp was reprinted in 1994 on watermarked paper:
Fourth and final release was on 5th December 1991 containing high values of 120, 160, 250, 400, 500 and 800L. All values except the 160L were re-printed on watermarked paper during 1994/96.
What explains the spread of face values is that during 1990s Romania experienced severe hyperinflation. The highest denomination in 1990 was 100 lei; in 1998 it was 100,000 lei; and by 2000 it was 500,000 lei. This of course affected postal rates and the use of these stamps:
The inflation created demand for new face values, and Romanian Post was forced to push out new definitive series annually. 1993 saw the release of 'Birds & Animals of Romania' series; in 1994 it was 'Romanian trees'; in 1995 it was 'Transportation'; and in 1996 it was 'Insects of Romania' – all with ever increasing face values.
By 1997 Romanian post started to overprint old definitive issues with new face values and it also meant a new lease of life for the stamps of Romanian hotels series. During the following two years a total of 24 different overprints on Hotel series stamps were released. Despite low catalog value, they are somewhat hard to come by as the prints runs were small. Below is all I've got so far:
Paper varieties
This is where the fun begins… Besides watermark differences, Michel notes that paper varieties are known, but does not provide any further details on them. So basically what you are about to see below, is entirely based on observations I've done when checking through duplicates.
Paper types
When viewed under UV, these stamps get a totally new life. As far as I can tell, there are at least two very different papers used. The non-luminescent paper appears dull brownish, whereas the phosphorescent paper shines bright.
As far as I can tell, most values come in both types of papers.
Paper thickness
Another difference comes with paper thickness. Especially stamps with non-luminescent paper seem to come in varying paper thickness. For example the below 1 Leu stamp is IMHO available on four different (non-luminescent) papers:
Similar variations exists for most values.
Print varieties
Finally, there's the question of print varieties… The number of print varieties appears infinite. Very likely there was very little quality control when these stamps were printed.
First, the type of paper seems to have had affect on print quality. Especially specimens printed on thick, yellowish paper suffer from extremely poor, blurred print:
But it's not always about the paper. These all have similar type of paper, but yet the print quality goes across the board:
Closing words
As usual, feel free to share your comments, questions and opinions on topic. I'm sure that out there is some specialized (likely Romanian) catalog / literature that covers these in more detail than Michel or Scott.
Finally… I've got roughly 18 grams (=400+ stamps) off-paper duplicates available. No damaged stuff, all postally used. If you're interested in getting yourself started with these, drop me a comment and I'm sure we can work out an exchange/swap to something that I can dig in next
Till next time, happy collecting!

Period lasting only 2 days??
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 10-13-2012 - 5:29pm
My cycles have been around 26-27 days for almost a year now and my periods last 5 or so days. The week before I was due to start this month, I began to feel achy near my left ovary area and my stomach felt kind of full with farily mild cramping.
I felt a lot of wetness and was sure that I started, but it was clear mucus tinged with a little brown blood. I used a pad, sure that I was going to start soon, but was a little confused, as I'm usually very dry about this time. Four days went by with NOTHING. And, out of nowhere, my period started ... right on time. It was a little on the heavy side for a day and tapered off on the 2nd day and that night, it was over.
It's been four days and I'm still feeling achy and crampy. I've had occasional shooting pains going down my vagina and occasional shooting pain in my breasts. It's really strange to me.
I'm not pregnant. I had a tubal done in 2007. The kind that you cut and burn. I worry about ectopic pregnancies, but I'm not in that kind of pain.
Any ideas? Just a strange month?
|Sun, 10-14-2012 - 11:25pm
Since pregnancy isn't an option (though if it were me, I'd still test, $1 store), I would think possible ovarian cyst. Those can really mess with your hormones. I've had some that gave me all these pregnancy symptoms!
I would let it go and see what happens next month. Of course, if you are in pain, call your doctor and get checked out. If it is a cyst and it ruptures, it's extremely painful! Just be aware.

The High Country Explorer, a variant of the 7GCBC, is the first certified aircraft to offer the new Superior Vantage engine. With a jump to 180 Horsepower (from 160), the airplane has exceptional performance. Deriving various design choices from the 8GCBC Scout, an 'in-between' airplane has been created.
The cowling is taken from the Scout by adding the side louvers and ground adjustable cowl flap. Following this cue, the Scout airbox was added to offer dual inlets when carburetor heat is used.
To allow for a larger diameter propeller, the High Country comes standard with the Aluminum Gear and 800 x 6 tires. The lighter gear is both taller and lighter, helping to offset the extra weight of the Superior O-360 over the standard Lycoming O-320. This is both a feature and a limit, as the 800 x 6 is the smallest tire permitted. Thus, it is not compatible with the current wheel pants. However, for those who want larger tires, tundra tires are compatible and any of the active STC's out there can be used just as a standard 7GCBC would.
Lastly, the Superior Vantage permissibly runs on premium automotive fuel. No reformulated or alcohol blends are permitted. As always, Aviation Grade 100LL is the preferred fuel.

I don't care how cliche it is, I am a girl that loves a good awards show. The bigger the stars (and the more of them), the better. The Oscars have all of my favorite things in one place: glitzy dresses fresh off the runway? Check. Incredible hair and makeup? Check. Acceptance speeches that run the gamut from hilarious to tear-jerking to obnoxious to secondhand embarassment-inducing? Check. A valid reason to drink to excess and yell at the TV screen that doesn't involve sports? Check! I don't necessarily wish I was famous (though there are some pretty undeniable perks, i.e. free everything), but I definitely like to approach Oscars night as the ideal opportunity to act like I am. This doesn't mean I like to get all dressed up and put on loads of borrowed jewelry and have an awkward conversation with Giuliana Rancic — actually, it's kind of the opposite. Come Sunday night, I will be doing one thing and one thing only, and that is treating myself with some full-fledged pampering, fuzzy bathrobe style. Or shall we say, celeb-style? So please, get your hair masques, face masques, everything masques at the ready. Put your best pajamas on and pop the Moët & Chandon (it's the official champagne of the Oscars!). Here are the luxurious treatments I'll be indulging in while I sit back and watch the 85th Academy Awards…

Therefore, should your Honda motorcycle, scooter or quad require servicing or repair work, give me a call.

Monique, 40
Every week or so I post a new model to the Exploring Beauty Project at www.exploringbeauty.org. This is Monique's interview:
Turning 40 is new and also positive for me. I started writing seriously this year. Both my kids are in school full-time. This is a new phase in my life and the focus is changing.
I can't compare to what you see in the magazines! After injuring myself last fall, I'm running again, and training for the Amsterdam marathon in the fall. The goal was to get fit and lose some weight. While I didn't lose much weight, I definitely feel fit. It's also helped me become more accepting of my no-longer-20-year-old body. I don't want to beat myself up like I have lately.
I have carried, birthed and nursed two healthy children and run a marathon and numerous half-marathons. I've earned this body. This is a message I want to pass on to my daughters. My six-year-old recently asked me why I run so much. I told her: because I enjoy it and because it makes me feel strong and healthy. And to myself, I added because it makes me realize how beautiful my body truly is.

Buick Achievers Scholarship Names First Five Recipients
DETROIT, April 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Buick Achievers Scholarship Program today announced the first five of 100 U.S. high school and undergraduate college students that will receive up to $25,000 in annual scholarships for demonstrating excellence in the classroom and in the community.
Funded by the General Motors Foundation and established in 2011, Buick Achievers is one of the largest scholarship programs in the country. The program provides 100 students with up to $25,000 renewable for four years, and one additional year for those entering a qualified, five-year engineering program. Additionally, 1,000 students receive a one-time $2,000 award. To date, Buick Achievers has awarded nearly $12 million to more than 2,100 college-bound students.
"With the current U.S. student loan debt hovering around $1 trillion, the impact the Buick Achievers Scholarship will have on these students is immeasurable," said GM Foundation President Vivian Pickard. "For some, they will be the first in their family to attend college and this program will provide an opportunity to pursue an academic career without the related financial pressures."
With the future of manufacturing and many other industries driven by new technologies, the Buick Achievers Scholarship Program supports students interested in pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, math, also known as STEM, information technology and other fields related to the automotive industry."The combination of academic achievement and community leadership exhibited by these Buick Achievers underscores the core values of this scholarship," said Tony DiSalle, U.S. vice president, Buick Marketing. "Supporting students interested in a STEM major or career is essential for the growth in our industry and we applaud these future innovators and leaders for their commitment." Featured during the Buick Human Highlight Reel Show that showcases inspirational stories of former student athletes and future leaders and innovators, the first five recipients of the 2013 Buick Achievers Scholarship Program include:

Jason Karp, PhD
Member Spotlight: Member Since 2007 | San Diego, CaliforniaAs a personal trainer specializing in running, Jason Karp has created a unique niche for himself. He encourages others to do the same. Jason's teaching style has been called strong, but subtle, by others, but he claims to focus mainly on intrinsic rewards. "Running is unique in that it has the power to reveal things in us, so I use that as a way to motivate and inspire my clients to find out what those things are," Jason says. He also invests in making changes in the relationship between the fitness industry and the medical field. Jason is pushing for exercise physiology to become a requirement for physicians in the future.

I only give this an 8 due to the content given thus far, I may change it once the complete product is given. Now as far as what was played thus far, it's quite incredible. There were times I had forgotten it was a mod and the quality of a lot of the environments were nicely created as well. The mood, feel, game play of a lot of aspects always put me on edge, given there were clear inspiration and iterations of several games out there. It's fully voiced and the acting, while not completely spot on all the time, it was still quality, especially with the sheer amount of the good bits. The prologue was not nearly as good as Chapter One level design wise, open areas don't exactly look right and the house, while understandably seemed the right proportions, doesn't feel right with the assets given to it. However, overall it was a great experience and I look forward to the next release. Keep up the good work gents!

Slater's primary focus is on the support of entrepreneurs who have the vision, leadership and commitment to build substantial technology-based business enterprises based in the state.
Our investment strategy focuses primarily on industry sectors best-suited to developing an innovation-based economy, including
- Life Sciences
- Software, Internet and Media
- Energy and Environmental Technology
Slater typically invests at the inception stage in the development of a new venture, often based upon ideas and technologies originating in academic institutions, government research laboratories or commercial enterprises located within the region.
In most cases, investments are premised upon the possibility of raising substantial follow-on financing from venture capital investors, grants, or other strategic partners, to accelerate the creation of a significant number of high-value, high-wage jobs in the long-term effort to help build and sustain the burgeoning knowledge economy in Rhode Island.
Slater at Work
Slater provides up to $3 million annually in seed funding for local technology-based ventures in the above categories. This seed funding – combined with the deep industry knowledge and the constantly expanding ecosystem of strategic partnerships that Slater provides – often serves as the critical catalyst that enables a company to successfully make the transition from the lab to the investment stage and/or product sales.
Several core tenets form the basis for Slater's mission and strategy, including:
- a commitment to entrepreneurship as a strategy of choice for economic development;
- investing limited amounts of risk capital can have significant catalytic effect;
- the belief that big ideas most often start small; and
- the principle that commitment of key people is the foundation on which all else is built
Slater also maintains an entrepreneur-in-residence program for technologists at the earliest stage of venture development, as well as the growing Entrepreneurial Fellows Program designed to introduce Rhode Island university students to entrepreneurship in the biotech and life sciences industries in Rhode Island.

Maybe his name is Alexei, but Petrov is not his family name, and he certainly isn't just any old Colonel. But he's not going to tell us. All we find out about him is that he is certainly related to the Russian Imperial family, and is probably a Grand Duke at the very least.
He is the Russian link who is responsible for bringing Brian and Harry to Russia, where they can work on the Netopyr (and also on the Zaamurets). In his capacity as the director of the Imperial Army proving ground at Kubinka, he is responsible for sorting out some of the oddball ideas that are put forward and consigning them to the relevant areas. Note that in real life, Kubinka only became the USSR tank proving ground in 1931. I have decided that it would make a suitable test area for Imperial Russia as well, and moved the time forward.
He is the daughter of Maria, who was educated at Cheltenham Ladies' College (as, in real life, were German Admiral Tirpitz' daughters).

Orange Pomander Recipe Coockery Show
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make an Orange Pomander. This is a project that I like to do during the holiday season. An orange pomander is basically an orange that is studded with cloves and tied with a ribbon, so that it can be hung in a closet to give off the aroma of orange and cloves. You can also place several of them in a bowl to make a nice centerpiece for your table. When they have completely dried, you may put them in dresser drawers to make everything smell wonderful. These also make great gifts or party favors. To do this project, wash a fresh orange in warm soapy water to remove any wax that may have been added. I find it easier to tie ribbon around the orange to make 4 sections at the very beginning, leaving enough ribbon to make a bow at the top of a loop for hanging. The ribbon should be about ½-inch wide. After securing the ribbon with straight pins, you may decorate each of the four sections in any way that you like. I decided to use a plain design by just making a single arc down the center of each of the four quarters formed by a brown felt ribbon. To insert the cloves, use a skewer, nail, or knitting needle to punch a hole about ½-inch deep and push a whole clove, spike-end first, into the orange. If this makes your finger sore, use a thimble to protect your finger. Place the next clove as close as possible without the two cloves touching. Continue until you finish your design in each quarter. You may have a different design in each quarter, or be consistent with the same design all around the orange. You may even fill an entire quarter with cloves for a very nice look. It's all up to you! This is a nice holiday project that you can do with children. You can do any part of this project that might be difficult or harmful ahead of time, and let the children help with the finishing—or they may just enjoy watching the process. I hope you enjoy this idea and find it useful!

Redeemed- Big Daddy Weave
Capo 4 (key of B)
G G/F# G/B Cadd9 (no index)
Seems like all I can see was the struggle
Haunted by ghosts that lived in my past
Bound up in shackles of all my failures
Wondering how long is this gonna last
Em D
Then You look at this prisoner and say to me "son
G Cadd9 (no index)
stop fighting a fight that's already been won"
G G/F# G/B Cadd9 (no index)
I am redeemed, You set me free
So I'll shake off theses heavy chains
G/F# G/B D Cadd9 (no index)
Wipe away every stain now I'm not who I used to be
I am redeemed
All my life I have been called unworthy
Named by the voice of my shame and regret
But when I hear You whisper, "Child lift up your head"
I remember oh God, You're not done with me yet
G G/F# G/B Cadd9 (no index)
I am redeemed, You set me free
So I'll shake off theses heavy chains
G/F# G/B D Cadd9 (no index)
Wipe away every stain now I'm not who I used to be---because
Em B7
I don't have to be the old man inside of me
G Cadd9 (no index)
Cause his day is long dead and gone------- because
Em B7
I've got a new name, a new life I'm not the same
G Cadd9 (no index)
And a hope that will carry me home
Repeat Chorus
The chords are perfect! Although I was confused at the prechorus "then you look at this prisoner and say to me son..." because you didn't have certain chords over certain words. But I got it and other than that it's perfect!

Fun Projects
Whether they are playing alone or with a group of friends, they will love working on a craft project. Here are some of the fun projects you can do with yours (or let them do on their own or with friends):
• Paper Dolls – These were popular long before Barbie ever hit the scene, and many little girls still love playing with paper dolls today. You can get books that have dolls and outfits that kids can cut out and play with or encourage them to draw their own figures and design clothing themselves. Not only will they have fun, but they will also be developing valuable skills they will need later in life.
• Decoupage – If you have paper, white glue and kids' scissors, your kids can have fun with decoupage. This involves cutting out various shapes and pictures and gluing them onto other surfaces. Younger kids may need your help with the cutting part. This can get messy, so make sure that you have a drop cloth and plenty of towels to clean up with.
• Chinese Lanterns – These are really fun and easy to make, and they are a great rainy day project. Simply fold a piece of paper in half, and cut strips from the fold line to about a half an inch from the end. Unfold the paper and wrap it around something around, taping the ends together. The cut strips should be going up and down, and the fold will be along the center.
• Boats – By using simple Japanese origami techniques, your children can make boats that will actually float in water (at least until they get too wet). You can also use these same techniques to make fun pirate hats.
These are just a few of the paper crafts for kids that you can do. If you go online, you are sure to find hundreds of other fun ideas that yours will love. Any time they are bored, you can just whip out the supplies and they will find that there are plenty of fun things for them to do, even if they can't go outside.

Suits Review: Liabilitiesby Chandel Charles at . Comments
There was certainly a lot of "Discovery" taking place on Suits this week, some of which threatened to besmirch the good name of the firm, its clients and the associates.
With Harvey was among those hit the hardest, Donna may pay the price for a mistake made four years ago.
One things is certain: Travis Tanner knows how to come in and upset an already tipping apple cart. And this isn't the first time he's done it.
Unfortunately for Harvey, that time he had the upper hand in the ethics department. This time, Harvey's tactics might actually catch up to him, even if these particular accusations are false. Perception is everything, and if Tanner has his way, Harvey will be perceived as a fraud.
Not to mention the fact that Donna will have to come forward with the document that proves that Harvey had the opportunity and possession of the report often referred to as "the smoking gun" in the Coastal Motors case.
When Donna discovered that it not only existed, but she had signed off on it, she was clearly devastated.
I've surmised that this season was tailor made to challenge the relationships of these characters to one another and in in relation to the firm as a whole, and it's starting to add up to just that.
Jessica and Harvey should have known better than to put off telling Hardman what was about to come at them, especially since it involved a potential lawsuit.
He may be their mutual arch nemesis, but when he has time and again referenced his apparent desire to keep the firm on the up and up, they should have know Hardman would blow a gasket.
But, when you really think about it, who was truly responsible for that timeline significantly shrinking?
That's right: Harvey.
Louis continues to be a loose cannon at this firm, willing to flip to whatever side will most benefit him. He's not below ratting out his enemies in the heat of the moment, which is exactly what happened here. If Harvey had just listened to what Louis was proposing and taken him seriously, he likely would have not only gained an ally in the fight, but spared himself Hardman's wrath.
I am intrigued by the possibility of Jessica, Harvey and Daniel all working together to deflect this lawsuit. Are they capable? Certainly. Is it feasible? With their checkered past, it's hard to say. For the health and future of the firm it's completely necessary that it does.
I'm really worried about Donna going forward. She's my girl. It's going to be terribly rough to suffer through her possible persecution in the coming week.
Another one of my girls, Rachel, had quite the encounter with Harold, the awkward associate who embarrasses me just by being on the screen. He's so socially inept and awkward that you can't help but love him. But what on earth was that all about in the law library? It was like he was just now realizing that Rachel was a looker.
Come on. Seriously? Like that's not a given from first sight?
Sadly, for Harold and his stapler, their relationship will go no further than her research for his cases. Quite frankly, I'm okay with that. Props to him for effort, though.
Some other highlights from the episode:
- Team Litt/Ross. Enough said.
- Harold walking in on Donna and Mike. Best cover up plan ever, Donna.
- Louis deciding to leave his infamous recorder in Harvey's office.
- Rachel having a drawer dedicated to staplers. In my opinion, she should be using the red one. It's cute.
What do you think the strain of Donna's discovery will put on the firm and Harvey's lawsuit? Are both their careers about to be irreversibly besmirched?

Or maybe not. Maybe Louis is just a snake.
I think Harvey or Mike will discover Donna's secret and protect her (after all isn't that what Harvey does for Mike?)I have a love/hate thing for Louis. He's a snake but does have a heart somewhere hidden way way down deep.
Cannot wait for the next episode !!!!!
I REALLY hope Harvey doesn't fire Donna... Harvey without her is not Harvey ! And yes she screwed up, yes it's gonna cost BIG, but... there's still hope right?
OMG !!!!!! Please Harvey don't fire Donna... This season is just too intense ! Phew ! Last episode, forgot to comment though it was just AWESOME ! The "You're The Man"... well nuf said !
Litt?Ross team ROCKED, for a fleeting moment. Still wanna see more, but I knew that what Mike was doing would put an end to this new bromance...
It is amazing how fast Louis' s allegiance can change ! But the recorder... SERIOUSLY !!! wow, that man is very interesting...
Loved She-Louis last episode, really wanted to see more.
Harold lol poor him, but his scenes were priceless. I agree, useless but still fun to watch. Donna is sooo resourceful ! And who woulda thought, Rachel's stapler drawer... NICE !
But the uy really wants Harvey's head man... wow, so much hatred ! Forces are joined, another war is on the way, or is it a battle... But Jessica and Harvey really need to start playing with Hardman, which they forced to do when he found out about the fraud lawsuit.
Cannot wait for the next episode !!!!!
Very good. Rachel/Harold was funny but pointless.
What an awesome episode! Season two of suits has been insane and intense! I for one loved litt. /Ross bromance despite it being so fleeting. Louis was awesome but clearly the guy needs to get over being so sensitive and needing all this praise. He isn't completely deprived of it and its childish. I love him being a wild card though. It's so Louis. I think the Jessica, Harvey, Daniel alliance will be interesting. Like the enemy of my enemy is my friend type of thing. This Donna development has me intrigued. This show thrives on these fantastic, strong relationships. Donna and Harvey are clearly the best of friends. Their bond is unshakable so I look forward to seeing that tested! Especially given the already tested relationship he has with Jessica. Its like a house of cards with the strongest bonds on the show threatening to tumble. I love it!
I'm pretty sure someone planted the memo, not quite sure that it was Hardman but it's a possibility. Stripping Donna from Harvey would be a blow, and Hardman certainly looks capable of that. Wouldn't it be a gas if Harold was the mole, however? What a perfect cover. What's a nerd like that doing in the pressure cooker of that office.
I think Jessica and Harvey were afraid of client reaction (and potential legal ramifications) when they pushed Hardman out they way they did rather than expose him publically.
I love the way Louis' dictaphone becomes central to each story. Not sure what that gift cost, but Hardman bought an ally for a song with it.
Wow so thoughts: Louis is a loose cannon. Quite frankly, it's not enough for him to be good at his job...he is the type that people have to notice and give him praise. This part of his personality is about to have him aligned with the wrong person. Because Hardman seems like the type to say anything to get you on his side and then your disposable. Plot Hole:
I am sorry but I cannot remember why Jessica or Harvey did not go to the authorities regarding Hardman's embezzlement. Was this ever explained? If it was, I don't remember it. I can only assume it's because they thought it would look bad to clients. Also, why did they blackmail Hardman with telling his wife about an affair as opposed to telling the cops about his crimes? Now it looks like they were complacent if it ever comes out. This seems kind of dumb to me. Harvey: Is it just me or is he gone from pleasantly snarky to doing things this season that are actually mean? I mean his comment about Louis being pathetic is completely unprofessional. Plus, work wise he seems off his game. The whole Rachel/associate whose name I can't remember...
This plot was completely unnecessary...I personally don't care who Rachel dates and we all know it won't be this guy. Donna: Poor Donna...for someone so loyal Harvey, he seems to question her integrity on a regular basis. Mike: Mike needs to stop wasting his time and actually earn a degree. He is smart enough that he shouldn't have to keep up this charade. He doesn't want to end 35, degree-less, and still a con artist. Or at least go to school secretly, while is being a con artist. Hardman: Holding all the cards because Jessica and Harvey know he committed a crime and didn't do anything....which I am not a lawyer but also seems like a crime.
I think Hardman planted that report, this is exactly what they have been hinting at this season. Hardman wants harvey and Jessica gone and this is how he's gonna do it.

Nissan And Gov. Bryant Break Ground On Supplier Park Supporting Jobs And Manufacturing Growth
CANTON, Miss., July 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Nissan expanded its U.S. manufacturing footprint today with Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant joining Nissan employees to break ground on a new supplier park at the company's Canton, Miss. vehicle assembly plant.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080506/NISSANWORDMARKLOGO)
The project will support more than 800 jobs, including an expected 400 newly created supplier jobs as well as 400 employees that Nissan has hired since June 1 in anticipation of the project.
Dan Bednarzyk, Nissan Vice President for Total Delivered Cost, and David Aldana, Nissan Vice President for Manufacturing, joined local officials from Madison County and the City of Canton to mark the start of construction."Today, we begin an exciting new chapter in Mississippi as we continue our localization and investment efforts in the United States," Bednarzyk said. "Today's groundbreaking supports our efforts to bring more Nissan cars and trucks to our plant in Mississippi and means more Mississippi jobs. Additionally, the supplier park will help make us more globally competitive at our Canton Mississippi plant." Current plans for the project call for construction of an integrated logistics center that will be located on the north end of Nissan's campus and is more than 1 million square feet in size. Additional infrastructure improvements will also be made to the current supplier logistics center building located at the south end of Nissan's campus. The supplier logistics center will serve as an immediate space for suppliers. The integrated logistics center will be used for multiple purposes supporting operations including inbound production parts, outbound returnable containers and supplier operations.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn (WVLT) -- MillerCoors has teamed up with the Cherokee Distributing Company to launch Respect 21.
Underage drinking is a well-documented issue, and is often more apparent in communities near college campuses.
Respect 21 started up in 2005, focusing on preventing underage access to alcohol, especially close to universities and colleges.
It's about to launch here in the Knoxville-area.
"We developed Respect 21 because we know that assisting retailers is the first step in preventing underage access to alcohol. Respect 21 has proven effective in more than 20 markets since its inception, including communities close to college campuses, and we're excited to expand this successful program in new communities," says Diane Wagner, responsibility commerce manager for MillerCoors.
Underage drinking is a well-documented issue nationwide, often more apparent in communities near large universities.
Programs like Respect 21, which help prevent alcohol sales to underage customers, are the first line of defense against underage consumption.
Here's how it works:
Local retailers enrolled in the program implement best practices and receive support in training their staff.
Additionally, licensees receive feedback on actual staff performance in checking IDs through legal-age mystery shoppers.
Community members are also engaged to work cooperatively in support of responsible retailing and to address related community issues, such as procedures related to fake IDs.
MillerCoors first partnered with the Responsible Retailing Forum and Brandeis University in 2005 to create Respect 21.

During the South Carolina Republican primary campaign, George Bush has been condemned by both Democrats and Republicans for speaking at Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina. (Alan Keyes spoke there, too, but with different results.) That the appearance of any political candidate at BJU should stir up waves of heated rhetoric and indignation demonstrates just how ridiculous the political process has become in the United States.
For those not familiar with Bob Jones University, it is a fundamentalist Christian university that has been a center of controversy the past two decades. Founded in 1927 by Dr. Bob Jones, Sr., a Christian evangelist, BJU moved to its present location in 1947.
The institution was founded upon principles of Protestant fundamentalism, including a literal belief in the Bible, abstinence from alcoholic beverages, and a host of other strict rules that govern the activities of students, faculty, and administrators.
Those who attend or work at BJU must adhere to the system of beliefs and regulations to remain in good standing. At present, the university has about 5,000 students and has an excellent academic reputation.
Jones also believed – like many other Protestant fundamentalists of his era – that God ordained racial segregation. In fact, Jones believed that people of black African descent bore a special curse that God had placed upon some descendants of Noah following the Great Flood. That curse made blacks inferior to whites and condemned them to be servants. Because of what the people at BJU believed to be their servile status, BJU refused admission to blacks until 1971. The university still does not permit interracial dating of any kind.
(It should be added that the Biblical scholars of all persuasions generally agree that no such curse was placed upon those of African descent. Even most old-line fundamentalists have abandoned that belief. Many Protestant fundamentalists, however, do believe there should be some separation of the races.)
During Jimmy Carter's presidency, the Internal Revenue Service attempted to lift BJU's tax-exempt status because of the college's racial policies. In 1983, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed with the IRS and the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. A court found in favor of the university's position, but the Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the decision, concluding, "Certain governmental interests are so compelling that conflicting religious practices must yield in their favor."
If the statement sounds ominous, that is because it is. The government was basically decreeing that Bob Jones University had no right to exist because part of its doctrinal statement was out of step with the prevailing views of the state.
Thus, BJU was no longer a tax-exempt institution, but the college continued to flourish and even grow, as contributions actually increased. In fact, enrollment of black students and other minorities increased in the years after the Supreme Court's decision. The government's decision had backfired, as BJU supporters rallied behind the university.
Not being able to shut down the university, the government has taken a different approach: to marginalize the college and its faction by shaming anyone who makes a speech on the campus. Therefore, when George Bush, Jr., made his speech, the political class was ready. Vice President Al Gore condemned Bush's appearance, as did former U.S. Senator Bill Bradley, who is attempting to outrun Gore to the left. One does not have to support BJU's racial policies to perceive the naked hypocrisy of Gore and Bradley. Both men have actively sought the support and endorsement of Al Sharpton, described by columnist Michael Kelly as "a professional monger of racial hatred, a career inciter of race-violence."
Kelly, in a recent Washington Post column, points out that Sharpton's actions have led directly to the murder of eight people, including a Jewish seminary student who was stabbed to death by a black mob in Brooklyn in 1991 after Sharpton had incited the group to violence. Sharpton and his followers have referred to "blood-sucking Jews," and used other such slurs. Yet, Gore, Bradley, and Hillary Clinton recently have all sat at Sharpton's feet in hopes for his blessings.
The Republican Party has been no better. John McCain has not spoken at BJU, but declared that if he did, he would condemn the university's racial practices. Alan Keyes did speak there and referred to the university's policies as "demons to be cast out." (Interestingly, the BJU audience, which has a strong anti-Roman Catholic bias, gave Keyes a much more enthusiastic reception than it gave Bush, even though Keyes is Catholic.)
Keyes is free to speak his mind, as is McCain, but one must remember that BJU does not force its guidelines upon anyone. Those who do not agree with the university's policies are free not to attend or work there. There is no coercion involved, and the BJU administration has never begun a riot or killed anyone. In short, people are at BJU – white, black and other races – because they want to be there.
Such choices are anathema to the political classes, which demand punishment from those who stray from the statist agenda. Thus, people who attend BJU or work there are to be marginalized, demonized, and forced to the outer fringes of society. All whites associated with BJU are to be labeled as racists and skinheads, while all BJU black students are Uncle Toms and lawn jockeys.
When it comes to pet political causes, the political class suddenly forgets its own "cherished" notions of freedom of speech and freedom of association. If it truly believed in freedom, then those who sought a worshipful audience with the likes of Al Sharpton would never condemn someone who sought an audience with gentle, law-abiding Christians.
One can only conclude, then, that the political class does not believe in freedom of speech or association of any kind, except that which is to their own advantage. People may dismiss such rhetoric simply as political talk, but we have seen on occasion when the political classes have been able to put their prejudices into action.
Whether their target is Bob Jones University or the Branch Davidians at Waco, one can be assured that the political class will place anyone in its crosshairs who does not bow down to the desires of politicians.
Professor Anderson teaches economics at North Greenville College in South Carolina.

Water Color Wars
What do you get when you mix a relay game with water and add in a little bit of dye? A wild and fun activity that cools off campers and keeps them talking for days.
Water color wars are nothing new—they're just a twist on a couple of old favorites. Relays, a camp standby, get more fun when you add in colored water. We've all played water balloon games, but water color war games take away the tedious elements of having to fill and tie every water balloon and the work of picking up the latex pieces afterward. These are games where getting wet and having fun keeps going until the water runs dry.
A few key components to consider before playing water color games with campers and staff: Instruct participants to wear old clothing that they don't mind getting stained. Depending on the strength of the dye, the stain might not come out.
Not sure what kind of dyes to use? You can use any food-safe dye. Check labels to make sure it doesn't stain or irritate skin.
Be sure there is adequate ability to be able to refill the buckets quickly between each game. You can recycle the water but you'll want to start each relay game with a full bucket.
Choose an area of camp where the ground is relatively free of obstacles, roots and rocks. Water relays make the ground very slippery.
Have fun!
Dixie Cup Fill
Equipment: (for each team, unless noted)
5-gallon bucket filled with colored water
5-4 oz. cups
5-8 oz. cups
Split teams in half. Have half the team lie down on the ground in a row, shoulder to shoulder, and hold the 8 oz. cup on their stomach. Give each standing team member a 4 oz. cup and instruct them to fill their cup from the 5-gallon bucket then, with a straight arm, pour their water into the cups of the players lying on the ground. The object of the game is to be the first team to fill all the 8 oz. cups. If the 5-gallon bucket runs out of water, the team is finished.
Over Your Head
5-gallon bucket filled with colored water
Empty 5-gallon bucket
10-8 oz. cups (or enough for entire team)
Have campers line up, single file, behind the bucket full of water, and set the empty bucket at the end of the line. On the start, the first camper is to fill their cup with water from the bucket, lift it over her head and from there, pour it behind her into the cup of the next person without turning to look. This continues down the line, with the last person dumping their cup of water into the bucket. The goal of this game is to be the team with the most water in the second bucket when time is called.
Coffee Can Relay
Equipment: (for each team)
5-gallon bucket filled with colored water
Empty 5-gallon bucket
1 empty, clean coffee can for each team with 3 holes punched in the bottom
Unobstructed area for running
Line up teams single-file behind the empty bucket. Place the bucket full of colored water 15-20 feet (or distance of your choosing) from the empty bucket. Give the coffee can to the first camper in line, and, upon starting, instruct them to run to the full bucket, fill the can, hold it over her head while running to the empty bucket. Have her dump the water in, and give the can to the next camper. The winning team is the one with the most water in their bucket when every member of their team has run once.
Water Toss
Equipment: (for each team)
5-gallon bucket filled with colored water
Empty 5-gallon bucket
1-8oz cup for each camper
