Thomas Jefferson was born at Shadwell, Albemarle County, Va., 13 April 1743 and graduated from William and Mary College in 1762. He was admitted to the bar 5 years later. In 1769 he was elected to the Virginia House of Burgesses where he soon became a leader of the patriot faction and helped form the Virginia Committee of Correspondence. He maintained that the colonies were not subject to Parliament but were bound to England only by allegiance to the Crown.
Jefferson was sent to the Continental Congress in June 1775, and a year later he was entrusted with writing the Declaration of Independence. He returned to the Virginia legislature in October 1776 where he labored to reform the new state on democratic principles. He succeeded Patrick Henry as governor in 1779 and held that office until 1781.
Jefferson succeeded Franklin as Minister to France in 1785 and, after his return in 1789, became the Nation's first Secretary of State.' Growing differences with Alexander Hamilton prompted him to resign from Washington's cabinet 31 December 1793, and he subsequently led growing opposition to the Federalist party. From 1797 to 1801 he was Vice President and he defeated John Adams in the presidential election of 1800. Upon entering the White House, Jefferson introduced a more democratic tone to public life, and his two terms as Chief Executive were marked by careful administration and rare frugality. Highlights of his presidency included the Louisiana Purchase, the Lewis and Clark Expedition, and the Navy's victory over the Barbary pirates. Their valiant and skillful fighting in the struggle with the North African corsairs gave American seamen some of their most colorful and cherished memories while strengthening the new nation's position as a power worthy of respect.
In retirement Jefferson exerted great political and intellectual influence as he worked to establish the University of Virginia. His brilliant career was brought to a fitting close when he died 4 July 1826, the 50th anniversary of his immortal Declaration of Independence.
Perhaps Jefferson's place in American history was best measured by President Kennedy while entertaining the Nobel Prize winners of the Western Hemisphere. "... I think," the President told his distinguished guests, "this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."
(Brig: t. 509; l. 117'H"; cpl. 160; a. 16 42-pdr. car., 4 long 24-pdrs.)
The second Jefferson was build at Sackett's Harbor, N.Y., for service in Commodore Isaac Chauncey's fleet on Lake Ontario and launched 7 April 1814. She was manned by a crew from sloop of war Erie which had been laid up at Baltimore because of the British blockade of Chesapeake Bay. Comdr. Charles G. Ridgely was her captain.
Most of the guns for the new American ships had not reached Sackett's Harbor by 19 May when the British fleet arrived off the American base and began a strict blockade. Jefferson finally sailed with Chauncey's fleet 31 July and arrived off Niagara 5 August. With Sylph and Oneida she blockaded several English vessels inside the river while Chauncey with the rest of the fleet sailed on to Kingston to challenge the main English squadron. After remaining on blockade duty off Niagara for over a month, Jefferson sailed for Kingston to rejoin Chauncey. During the passage a severe storm arose 12 September and, before abating 3 days later, almost swamped the brig. Ten of her guns were thrown overboard in the struggle to save the ship.
Jefferson rejoined her fleet 17 September and operated with it during the remainder of the navigation season attempting to draw Sir James Yeo's ships into a decisive contest. Toward the end of November she was laid up for the winter. Peace obviated Jefferson's planned return to commission in the spring. She apparently remained in ordinary until sold 30 April 1825.

Hi All,
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 11:43am
"Perhaps it is time to scale back on the assistance you provide to them."
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 1:11pm
Where would the dog stay?
Regardless, her response sounded pretty heartless.
Are you going to keep continuing to pick up your cousin, and help them out?
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 3:25pm
You're right that its not fair and it sounds like she has been taking advantage of your generosity. Sometimes people are so self-absorbed that they don't realize that they are supposed to return favors. Maybe its time to have an honest talk with her and tell her straight up that you're surprised that she expects payment for this favor because you have done XYZ to help her out. (does she pay you for gas when you drive around her daughter, do their shopping, etc?) That gives her a chance to recognize and appreciate your efforts and remember that she needs to reciprocate. By her response you will know if you ought to reconsider how much help you will give her in the future.
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 7:30pm
I agree with elc11 that it might be a good idea to sit down and have an honest talk with your cousin.
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 8:54pm
I have already done that. I also told her how I felt and I didnt think it was right. Which we she say she was sorry. She also said, that if I decide to have her watch my dog then she would be glady to do it. Interesting! Dont you think?
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 8:56pm
|Mon, 08-01-2011 - 8:57pm
No I will not continue to help to pick up my cousin. Im all done with that.

Manual of Fiqh as-Sunnah
by Arif Hussain
Part I | Part II
Shaykh Sayyid Sābiq has done a great service to the Muslim world by providing a solid text on Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) that brings to light the difference of opinion of scholars regarding matters of worship, while also providing a reference to the sources of Islamic law. An individual may study this text and have a working manual to live their life by.
The elaborate discussions in the book however, may make it difficult for one to memorize the rulings and discern the final opinion of the scholar. In light of this, I've set out to derive the final rulings of Sayyid Sābiq so that one may implement what they learn immediately. In most of the discussion below, I have left out the opinions that are not taken by the Shaykh. I wished to provide the final opinion of the Shaykh along with the textual source of this opinion and a list of the Companions and Scholars that agreed with this opinion. I also recorded the opinions of the Four Imāms whenever they were mentioned. However, occasionally I provided a summary of the debate of a particular topic because it is a matter that is often a source of conflict in the Muslim community and therefore, one might require some insight to fully understand the difference of opinion. Also, occasionally the Shaykh may mention the various opinions but not mention the opinion he agrees with. In those cases, I simply laid out the different opinions as mentioned in the book.
I must make it clear that this work was not meant to replace the discussions presented within Fiqh-us-Sunnah, but rather to provide a practical manual of Fiqh as derived from the final rulings of Fiqh-us-Sunnah. Also, no human endeavor is free of defect. I ask Allah for His pardon, and I pray that this may be of benefit to all of us.
May Allah bless this effort and allow us to worship Him based on the Sunnah (sayings and actions) of His last Messenger. Ameen.
PURIFICATION (at-Taharah)
Types of Water: Water is broken down into four categories: (1) mutlaq water, (2) used water, (3) water mixed with pure elements, and (4) water mixed with impure elements.
(1) Mutlaq Water is that which is considered inherently pure, and therefore may be used to purify oneself. The types include:
a. Rain, Snow, and Hail:
"We sent down purifying water from the sky" (Qur'an, 25:48).
b. Sea Water:
A Hadīth narrated by Abū Hurairah states:
"It's water is pure and it's dead (animals) are lawful" (related by "the five" and Al-Bukhāri calls it sahīh).
c. Zamzam Water
(2) Used Water is that which is left over after one does Wudhū' or Ghusl. This water may be used to purify oneself.
- Hadīth: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wiped his head with the water remaining on his hands from wudhū'."(Ahmad & Abū Dawūd)
- Scholars: Malik, Shafi`i, Sufyan Al-thauri, Abu Thaur, Dhāhiris.
(3) Water Mixed with Pure Elements includes water that has been mixed with substances that are considered inherently pure. Examples of pure substances are dough, flowers, leaves, saffron, soap and others. Such water is considered pure so long as the mixture is small enough that you can still call it water. If the substance becomes so overwhelming that the mixture is no longer called water, then it cannot be used to purify oneself.
- A Hadīth reported that the Messenger ﷺ and Maimunah washed themselves from a container of water with traces of dough in it (Ahmed, Nasā'i, Ibn Khuzaimah)
(4) Water Mixed with Impure Elements includes water that is mixed with impure substances (najāsah) that is mentioned later. This water is split into two categories:
- The impure substance alters the taste, color, or odor of the water. This water is not to be used for purification. Ibn al-Mundhir and Ibn al-Mulaqqin state that there is consensus on this matter.
- The Impure substance does not alter the taste, color, or odor of the water. This water is allowed for purification. A Hadīth narrated by Abū Hurairah states: When a Bedouin urinated in the masjid the Prophet ﷺ said, "Leave him and pour a bucket of water or a container of water over his urine. You have been raised to be easy on the people, not to be hard on them."
It appears that this was used as evidence because it was sufficient for the companions to pour water over the urine, thereby making the ground pure and appropriate for Salāh. Had the mixture been considered impure then the ground would not be appropriate for Salāh. Thus, the water was a large enough amount that none of its characteristics were changed and it was considered pure after mixing with the urine.
- Scholars: Ibn `Abbās, Abu Hurairah, Al-Hasan Al-Basri, Ibn al-Musayyab, 'Ikrimah, Ibn Abu Laila, al-Thauri, Dawūd adh-Dhāhiri, an-Nakha'i, and Mālik.
Leftover Water: This is water that is leftover after something drank from it. This is divided into what or who has drank from the water.
Water leftover after people drank from it. This water is considered pure whether the individual was Muslim, Non-Muslim, menstruating or non-menstruating. The reference in the Qur'an that states "Verily the Mushrikīn are impure" (9:28) is referring to their impurity in beliefs and creed, not physical impurity.
Water leftover after an animal drank from it, whose meat is permissible for consumption. Such water is considered pure and allowed for purification.
Water leftover after being drank by a donkey, mule, beasts or birds of prey. Such water is also considered pure and usable for purification. This is based on a few ahadīth that mention that we are allowed to drink from a pond after beasts have already drank from it.
Water remaining in a pot after a cat drank from it. This water is also considered pure.
- Hadīth narrated by Kabshah bint Ka'b who mentioned that Qatādah fed a cat water that he was going to drink from, and he said that the Messenger ﷺ said, "It (the cat) is not impure, it is of those that intermingle with you." (From "the five" it is Sahīh)
Water leftover after a pig or dog drank from it. This water is considered impure and to be avoided.
- Hadīth narrated by Abū Hurairah: "If a dog drinks from one of your containers, wash it seven times." (Ahmad & Muslim)
Continued in part two.

Assalamualaikum Akhi,
I think you may need to explain the used water part more clearly. There is water left over that the wudu was taken from, and there is also the water that his been compiled from what fell off of the persons body while making wudu. Also, the Shafii madhhab clearly states that water used after the first mandatory wash of Wudu (ablution) is not to be re used for purifying one self again. If the water was used for the second or third wash, which are Sunnah, then that water may be reused for another person's Wudu. Also, the water that is left over in the container that the water was taken from, has two situations. 1. If the water is considered alot (there is a difference in opinion in what alot is), and it did not change to an extent that you can not call it pure water anymore, then it is ok to use for wudu and ghusl. If the water is considered to be less than that "alot" amount, and you actually put your hand or other body part while making the first mandatory wash, then the water is considered used in the shafii madhahab. Whether or not it changed. I am just making clear the shafii madhhab, because of what you stated. This is the strong opinion within the madhhab. Yes, the Malikii madhahb states that it is ok to use the leftover water that falls from a person after there wudu, but it is disliked if the water is little. If it is alot, then it is not disliked. Also, if the water that falls off of the person after he makes wudu or ghusl has changed to the point where it cannot be called water anymore, then it cannot be used again for the mandatory wudu or ghusl even if it was alot. This is also the ruling for the water that remains in the container that was used to purify oneself, if ofcoarse he put his body directly inside of the bucket instead of pouring it on to his body parts during the first mandatory wash.
Also, I have heard that the original version of fiqh as Sunnah as some inaccurate information in some places.
Wallahu A3lam

"I enjoy "fake" more than "real" so I compose songs using Vocaloid"
Kagome P's various activities include producing not only music but also movies, but, moreover, he became involved in development of Vocaloid software. Although he was gentle with his small stature, he revealed his passion when he had a panel at Anime Expo and expressed a dissenting view on the crackdown on the club culture in Japan there. This question list is from fans on Hatsune Miku facebook page. Thank you and enjoy!
Where does your songwriting idea come from?
Twenty-four seven, every single music in town or on TV gives me some inspirations. When I explore a new idea, I search for French hit tunes which are not on sale in Japan using YouTube (If they are available on iTunes Store, I purchase them). Also, I was considerably inspired by music on TV or radio in the States where I visited this time.
How do you explain Vocaloid music to people who think that it is "fake ( = not real)"
I say "you're right" and laugh. *laugh* Even so, I enjoy "fake" more than "real" so I compose songs using Vocaloid.
Would you write English songs when English version of Vocaloid software is released?
I have made so many English songs using Japanese database already, so the question sounds a bit strange. Or, don't my English songs sound like English? *laugh*
Seriously speaking, I like writing English songs, especially with rap, so I will continue making such songs using Japanese database.
But basically, I write melodies of songs in Japanese with consideration for the flows of Japanese intonation, so I don't think of translating my songs which are released as Japanese songs into English at present.
Finally, I've got to say that probably I would buy English Rin if it is released. *laugh*
How was your experience in making Yuzuki Yukari, Vocaloid & Voiceroid, as a member of VOCALOMAKETS?
I'd been dreaming of being "a Vocaloid developer" since I started making music by Vocaloid so it was a dreamlike time.
Especially, I cannot forget the impression when I heard its first voice after prototype of Vocaloid came along. It was one of the quite touching moments I've had in my life.
Please tell us the reason why you thought that you would sing using Kaai Yuki. Also what's the background of "Innocent Girl"?
I like UK club music bands with relaxed vocalists such as Massive Attack and when I heard the demo song before its release, I strongly felt, "the voice will fit the music I want to play!".
Then, as I explore the method of using Yuki's voice, the apathetic voice started sounding like "the voice which looks down on adults" Yuki's voice is not that of children in adults' imagination (so called "anime voice") but of real "9-year-old".
Then I interpreted Yuki as meaning that "'With cold eye, the 9-year-old' watches 'adults' who regards her only as a 'child'". As soon as I did it, great amount of inspirations came to me. "Innocent Girl" is one of the pieces born out of such inspirations.
GO on kagomeP,,dont look behind anymore
sure you will
Personally, I don't consider Vocaloid songs as "fake" since our perception of "what is fake" and "what is real" can be different on certain level. I"m trying too hard to be deep though :D
Some of the 'fake' songs seem more authentic than some of the real songs out here.
Nice to meet you Kagome.I don't know that you like "fake" movies than real
Nice to hear from Kagome. And interesting to see that he's obviously now committed to Rin, it's a bit sad for Yuki since he was one of the few prominent P to use this voicebank, but I must admit that his work with Rin is absolutely amazing, I own his last album - Close*2 - and would recommend it to anyone to purchase.
My favorite song is HiFi Girl HD 有難う御座いますカゴメさん
I think that the Japanese lawmakers have not carefully considered the ramifications of their attempts to implement new laws regarding copyright and other issues related to freedom of expression. For example, the entire doujin market in Japan involves a complex network of interrelated businesses and efforts to restrict the creative artists will have negative impacts on many businesses that evolved to support doujin creativity. That's not a positive outcome for the economy, but I don't think this outcome has been considered.
I love this new content.

Now, I thought this video was adorable and quirky! You should consider "WTF?" to be a compliment.
I don't really understand why it was WTF? I'm kinda used to seeing you in the chicken suit now, so maybe that's why.
And I don't care if it took you like an hour to write it. I'm curious to know if you wrote down a list of words that mean "butt" first, then matched it up with an animal. That seems too hard for me. But I'm also legally retarded.
OMG a tracker! Look at THAT tracking everyones move! Fancy AND creepy! Fantastic.
Hmmm, I wonder which state I am, I just "arrived" so where is Illinois? Illinois isn't showing up. Just like our Governor didn't on his impeachment hearings. Ohio "arrived". Maybe I'm Ohio. Talk about a WTF.
Ok back to your video here.
I'm going to tell you something my Mom always said when people said unkind things to me: "Honey, they're jealous!". And boy oh boy, does that apply here too.
Ha. They only WISH they coud write a unique and adorable childrens book in less than an hour. They only DREAM of making a chicken suit look so good.
Da Nile aint just a river in Egypt and Envy aint just a perfume (is it?)!
I was viewer 110,666. Sweet!
I loved when you took a drink of water. Good stuff. I thought this was cute and weird.
Um, now the ending is ruined ;_; and yes those are real tears.
I come up United States. So mysterious and non-commital.
I thought this was freakin' adorable! I love the pleased expression on your face.
I echo Asian07boi's succinct yet complex musings: "wtf is tis...shit is dumb ass hell...loli;"
Loli indeed Michael. Loli indeed. (What is a loli?)
I resent being tarnished as 'London.'Is that the only place in England that any tracker devices know??
I surmise that there are people out there that are specifically employed to comment with 'WTF?' on each and every internet video clip. That's equality for you.
You are amazing, sir.
I just checked back to see this tracker deal. Kinda creepy. Like that chicken suit.
I just figured out these tracker references. I don't like it. Me no like tracker. It creeps me out. Nope. I object.
The reading was masterful..the content..exquisite..move over Dr.Seuss and his caboose ..wtf !!!!you're pure genious
I don't know if it'll be enjoyable now to read the book without you in a chicken suit. You have outdone us all.
The company I work for makes the chicken costume you're wearing in this. Amazing.
I will be reading this to my nephew as soon as he can talk. I think it very important for children to have a full knowledge of the many terms for 'butt'. Too many kids these days are using highly uninventive words to describe their anatomy and this book will be a guiding light to a promising tomorrow. Truly inspirational.

Hi. When is your latest Maggie Newberry book being published? Thanks.
Pingback: Uploaded Block | The Brass Rag
I am now reading the 3rd. book of the Irish End Games series ~ you have probably ruined me for anything else ~ lol!
I absolutely love your Maggie Newberry Series. I typically read Cozy mysteries with a female sleuth. Not much into thrillers that focus on the actual violence but more into the solving the of crime like the mysteries of old. You have done this extremely well and I wanted to let you know. I have purchased all of your Maggie Newberry series of books from Amazon but had to come to your website to find the order of the books. I read on a kindle and unfortunately a lot of times Amazon just puts the date the book was converted to an E-book. Anyway thanks so much for your work and I look forward to reading your other books as soon as I am through with the M.N. series! (I am on #4)
So when will the 4th book in the Irish End Games series come out? I just read all three last week and loved them. I've signed up to receive emails from you. Will you be notifying fans when it's out?
When will the 4th Irish End Games be published? I can't wait to finish their remarkable journey!
Really enjoy the Ella and Rowan series. Please let me know when the fourth book in the series is published. Thanks!
I have just finished reading book 3 in the Irish End Game series. I was gripped from the begining of book 1 right through to the last page of book 3. I just couldnt put them down till i had finished the story. You had me on the edge of my seat all the way through.so glad we had a happy ending ,cant wait for book 4 in the series.
These are the first of any of your books i have read Sue .when i recover from these i am going to explore some more of your books.
I just finishedthe first book of the irish games trilogy and just went to buy the second, with my nook on barnes and noble…I was unable to find it looking under the title, the series name or your name. it was agreat read and look forward to continue. I only know how to purchase thru B&N. Do you know why I can't find it and or can you advise me
Thanks, have a nice day
I went to a Quilt Retreat. Started the Irish End Game Series. Couldn't stop reading. The
girls I was sewing with just didn't understand. Wonderful books! Loved them. Can't wait for the next.
I stumbled across the first book of your Maggie Newberry series kind of by accident back in August. It was free and I had read everything by my "normal authors" and was waiting on new titles to be released. So, I thought…. what the heck! I was hooked almost immediately. I just finished Murder in Nice and can't wait for number 6! (Numbers on the cover would be nice.) You are now in my "normal author" rotation! I will try some of your other series while I wait for number 6! Thanks for hours of good reading!
Loved your book Murder in the south of france
Just finished Murder in Nice, absolutely loved it!! When will the next Maggie Newberry book be released?
Will it be on Barnes & Noble. For your books I will save to buy a Kindle
I absolutely love Maggie and Laurant!!!!! Just spent the last week and weekend reading the first four novels. Many thanks for much entertainment! I'm having withdrawal pains!
I just finished the 6th book in your Maggie series……. when will the next one come out? Love the series!!!

January Secret Agent #36
GENRE: YA Historical Fiction
Fernanda pressed her heels into the horse's sides. "Faster, pretty one, faster. We want to feel the wind in our hair, no?"
The horse flicked its ears then galloped across the plain, kicking up stones from the hard ground. Fernanda leaned closer to the horse's neck, her long braid slipping over her shoulder. The animal's smell of grassy manure and sweat filled her with the thrill of riding. It had been too long.
Her body rocked with the rhythm of the pounding hooves. Water streaked from her eyes as she raced across the desert, dodging barrel cactuses and mesquite bushes. Her rebozo slipped to her shoulders; then the shawl untied completely and was gone. Fernanda glanced over her shoulder and saw it flutter to the ground. A laugh burst from her chest, and watching a hawk fly high into the sky, she thought, I feel as free as that bird!
The power of the horse flowed through her, charging her with the desire for adventure, her heart soaring beyond Tubac to worlds far away, worlds full of golden riches, handsome men, and green hills that rolled on forever. Worlds where she would ride, explore, and each day discover something new.
Before realizing how far she'd gone, she saw her family's adobe hut. She tightened the reins, stopped the horse, and squinted toward the house. Her soaring heart dropped like the hawk diving to the ground. There, in front of the hut with her hands on her hips, stood her mother.

There's some really solid writing here! I like the world you are creating, and the details you use really bring it to life.
My biggest recommendations for this piece are twofold: Less telling, and more conflict.
We understand (quite beautifully) how free your narrator is and wants to be in the action (the shawl falls away and she laughs). I don't think we need her to see a hawk and think "I feel free." I'd also argue that we don't really need her to tell us about how much she wants distant worlds in the following paragraph. I think that's all there in the action, and it's stronger--and less overstated--if it's just told that way.
We need some hint of conflict other than her mother at the end. Otherwise it goes for too long without a solid hook. She mentions she hasn't done this in a while--can we get a sense of why? Why isn't her life one full of freedom?
(also, could we maybe get the horse's name? If it's her narration, wouldn't she call the horse by its name instead of calling it "the horse" throughout?)
Hope that helps! Good luck!

While I can feel her freedom and her exhilaration, there are parts that are confusing to me.
You describe tears streaking down her face, but she laughs in the same paragraph, so I'm not sure if she is just out for a ride and a thrill seeker or if there is something more serious going on.
I also don't understand what the driving force of the conflict will be in the story. She doesn't seem to have any real problems or adversary yet.
I do love the little details that bring the world to life. I can see the desert, and her heritage from the details you have added. That's really good.
Good luck!

I think the pacing is perfect here. You're setting a scene, and establishing location, character, and even some motivation. The Spanish name and words tell us a lot, and I was curious enough to look up Tubac, so I can make a good guess at the time period even from this limited sampling.
I do agree it seems odd that she doesn't have a name for her horse, unless of course she swiped it from someone.
- January 15, 2014 at 6:25 PM
- Jenni Enzor said...
I love the Spanish setting! You also did a wonderful job of using sensory details to really set the scene. I felt like I was riding along with her.
I agree with the others have said about upping the tension. You need a stronger hook here to make this stand out and feel different from other stories about girls and their mothers. Answering some of Alyssa's questions might help with that.
Good luck!
- January 15, 2014 at 10:40 PM
I think this story would hook the reader if there was more tension. A ride outside and a disapproving mother are not enough.
- January 16, 2014 at 5:42 PM
- Wendy Qualls said...
I love the feel I get from your narrator, but the line of dialogue feels a bit stiff to me, almost like it's a literal English translation of whatever she actually said in a different language.
Also, is she so rich that she doesn't care that she lost a shawl? Seems like she'd at least make a mental note to go get it at the end of her ride . . .
- January 17, 2014 at 10:30 AM
- Barbara said...
This was well written and you made me feel the joy and freedom the MC felt on her ride. But, as others have said, there's no tension or conflict.
There's also no sense of time. This is a historical and the only clue we get is the desert and Tubac, so I can guess we're in the southwest. After looking up Tubac, I know I'm in Arizona, but am in the time of the Spanish Presidio? During the O'oodham uprising? When it was a 19th century mining town?
Perhaps this horse ride isn't the place to start?
- January 19, 2014 at 8:02 AM
This was well written and Fernanda's sense of joy really comes through this description of her ride. I'd cut "watching a hawk fly high into the sky, she thought, I feel as free as that bird!" since you've already shown us that. I'm not quite hooked yet, but I like how abruptly everything changes when she reaches home, and I'd read on a bit to see if this conflict/tension with her mother would really draw me in.

Home is the first school and mother is the first teacher. Home, your sweet home is all that you need to turn into a heaven of learning and love. The place of mother is supreme. A little child once stepped inside a gift shop to buy a gift on mother's day. The shopkeeper suggested many things for her mother. She listened as if hypnotized while staring at the gifts on the shelves but finally broke down in a stream of tears. She told the shopkeeper that nothing matched the outstanding love of her mother for a buy. The shopkeeper finally packed a gift but refused to take the money from her hand. He said that is a gift of heart and more invaluable than a price.
Although there is a lot of career counseling now-a-days, nothing can replace the place of mother in playing a decisive role in suggesting a career. Mother is the only person who can give the right advice for career for her kids. History is replete with instances of women who successfully guided their offspring for the right professions.
Observe your child's interests for the selection of right career-Now-a-days, a large percentage of mothers are qualified. You know your child like the back of your hand. For example, if your child has an unusual interest in drawing pictures, primarily you are responsible for giving positive feeding to your child's natural interest.
Unless you do it, know for sure that growth of your child shall be stunted. There are parents who insist on stereotyped careers for their children which only ruin the lives of all of them. Observe your child's interests which can be helpful for selecting a career.
Be empathetic to your children while they learn- The world of learning vital for the career of your child is always difficult. The weight of the bag on the back of your child goes on growing. Know for sure, the world outside your home would always be passing bucks to your child. Your child may be blamed for inattentiveness in the studies or for incapacity to grasp the topics in the important subjects. In many cases the child becomes extremely naughty and is blamed by everybody. As a mother, you need not beat the child but apply your understanding. A child is naughty because he is sharp witted and realistic. He finds every thing happening around him is only a farce.
A child was accompanied by his parents to a temple. There he refused to take the idols of deities as real Gods and Goddesses. He reasoned by his natural intelligence that how lifeless statues could be Gods. He denied prostrating before the statues. The father of boy was so enraged that he solidly slapped the cheek of the boy.
Your child's natural inquisitiveness and stubborn attitudes are vital clues for a suitable career- If you are an intelligent mother, try to assess from the inquisitions of your child about his or her wavelength. It is not necessary that your wavelengths must match with those of your child. But as a mother you need to summarize and shape up those into a successful career. It is just like an idol-maker moulds the clay into a beautiful idol.
Had the parents of the above mentioned child been wise, they would have realized the realistic true spiritual meaning behind the words of the child. They could suggest the child to be a philosopher.
What if your child is excessively stubborn in everything?
As a mother you can again apply empathy to know the root cause behind the child's stubbornness. The mother of a child in India was peeved while she saw the peculiar habit of her boy. The child would imitate the dance of the famous modern dancers standing before the television. The boy reacted sharply as his mother tried to restrain her. He was brilliant in his studies but more known for his interest in modern dance. The woman feared that the dance could damage the prospects of his studies. But one day her friend saw the boy dancing before the television aping a famous dancer. She observed that how extraordinarily the small boy performed without any coaching. She personally volunteered by taking the boy to a teacher in modern dance. Later the boy became a gifted dancer and actor. He makes his classmates green with envy now-a-days by his lavish living.
Pretend before the child to shape up his stubbornness- You should use the tactics of diplomacy with your children to make them agree to your guidance. Suppose you want in the core of your heart that your child should become a doctor. However your child does not agree to this stubbornly. Pretend before the child that how sad you are in your mind and heart because others have sons and daughters who have excelled in medical profession. Cry before your child if you can. This will of course touch the chords of his emotions. Stay away from your emotional flare-ups and consequent beating of the child.
Be professional with the tantrums of your child- At times your child might be behaving very weirdly. Your neighbors may call your child a mentally handicapped one, as they judge his mischievous pranks. But as a mother, you stick to your hopes for him.
Be a die-hard optimist. Optimism is real professionalism. As a mother you can select a career for your child right from his childhood.
As a professional mother, disallow the bad behavior of the child affect your marital relationship. Put as many examples as you can find before your husband about such instances where children were transformed into finest achievers in their later lives. Whatever he considers as serious offence on the part of a child can be very natural for his age.
The last but not the least act of professionalism is, as a mother you should never complain about your child before the strangers and in the social circles. This affects the psychology of the child in the worst way. Gradually your child gets alienated from others. It is because words travel faster than sound. Your child is not the sole case. There must be many cases in your neighborhood.
Consult only with doctors, child psychologists and experts in the field of child behavior and growth.
The responsibility of a mother remains throughout life without an end- Know for sure your responsibility as a career guide of your child will never end. We wept a lot when we read the instance of a mother of a General serving in the world war-II in the allied power. His mother kept on writing very inspiring letters to him in the darkest hours of war. Her letters were only hopes in the bitter conflict against enemy, literally served as beacons for victory. When the war ended and he went home, he found his mother had died much before. But she kept the letters post dated.

Extremely Limited LIRR Service This Weekend

The LIRR says there will be "extremely limited service"Saturday and Sunday. It will be running a third of its usual trainsin and out of Penn Station. Buses will replace trains betweenMineola and Jamaica stations. There will be no LIRR service toBrooklyn.

"We have been working closely with our runners from Long Island to makesure they have transportation to the race, including via charter buses, and we are confident that they will be able to get to the start line on time," said Jeff Decker of New York Road Runners, which organizes the ING New York City Marathon. "We also have been working closely with the LIRR to make sure those attending the Marathon as spectators know about the weekend work at Jamaica and are fully informed about their travel options for the weekend. The LIRR has been very helpful in this regard," - MTA spokesperson.
The railroad is working to complete a switch and signalmodernization project at its hub in Jamaica, Queens. Severelycurtailed service also occurred on Oct. 23-24.
The LIRR is providing information to the public and to its employees on thismajor project using various media including the MTA/LIRR website at www.mta.info/lirr, customer e-mails, on-train brochures, letters to elected officials, highway Inform signs, station posters, electronic message boards at Jamaica, Penn Station, and Atlantic Terminal, public address system announcements, radio and newspaper advertisements, on-train announcements, and an internally produced instructional video that is posted on the LIRR website and on Penn Station and Jamaica monitors.
Project and service information will also be available on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/mtalirr?ref=nf and on Twitter at http://twitter.com/LIRRScoop.
Customers should pick up copies of the Jamaica Cutover Brochure and the special November 6-7 Jamaica Cutover weekend timetable for their branches at terminals or their local stations.

Dow, S&P 500 Eke Out Gain for Week
"The official report contained a piece of good news, which was that quarterly growth quickened to 1.8% quarter-over-quarter from 1.6% in Q1, which was stronger than median expectations," said Klaus Baader, senior economist at Societe Generale. "While not too much emphasis should be placed on this, it may be a sign that growth has already bottomed in Q1."
"Our forecast remains that the Q2 annual growth rate is likely to mark the low in the current cycle, and that thanks to both monetary and fiscal stimulus Q3 growth will strengthen to around 8%," he continued.
The FTSE in London rose 1% and the DAX in Germany was higher by 2.2% as the European markets rallied in response to the China data and good demand at an Italian bond auction outweighed a Moody's credit rating downgrade of Italy. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Stock index closed up 0.35% and the Nikkei finished flat.
In U.S. economic news, the Labor Department reported that the producer price index rose by 0.1% in June after falling 1% in May, which was better than the decline of 0.5% that economists surveyed by Thomson Reuters were expecting for last month. The core figure rose 0.2%, as expected, after increasing by the same amount previously."The combination of a benign inflation backdrop and large amount of slack in labor markets leaves the Fed free to maintain its highly stimulative policy stance with a move to further easing through additional asset purchases still possible should conditions deteriorate further," said Nathan Janzen, an economist at RBC Economics, who viewed the gains in the wholesale price index as mild. The University of Michigan consumer sentiment index was a disappointment, coming in at 72 vs. an expectation for a reading of 73.4. August crude oil futures rose $1.02 to settle at $87.10 a barrel. August gold futures popped $26.70 to settle at $1,592 an ounce. The benchmark 10-year Treasury fell 5/32, lifting the yield to 1.491%, while the dollar was down 0.35%, according to the dollar index.

Spreadbury v. Bitterroot Public Library et al
Filing 249
ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS for 210 Findings and Recommendations and 181 Findings and Recommendations regarding 108 Motion for Summary Judgment filed by Lee Enterprises Incorporated - granting in part and denying in part 108 Motion for Summary Judgment; adopting in part Findings and Recommendations re 181 Findings and Recommendations; adopting in part Findings and Recommendations re 210 Findings and Recommendations. Signed by Judge Donald W. Molloy on 3/6/2012. (APP, ) Copy mailed to Spreadbury this date.
FILED MAR 062012 PATRICK E. PUFFY, CLERK By·-;;::oe:;:;:;P\JTY=-::::ru""'RK=-:". M""ISSOULA=:-::- IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MONTANA MISSOULA DIVISION MICHAEL E. SPREADBURY, Plaintiff, ) ) ) ) ) vs. CV ll-64-M-DWM-JCL ORDER ) BITTERROOT PUBLIC LIBRARY, CITY OF HAMILTON, LEE ENTERPRISES, INC., and BOONE KARLBERG P.e. Defendants. ) ) ) ) ) ) -----------------------) September 28, 20 II, Defendant Lee Enterprises, Inc. filed a motion for summary judgment on the counts remaining against it in this matter. United States Magistrate Judge Lynch entered Findings and Recommendations on November 30, 2011 (dkt # 181). Both Lee Enterprises and Plaintiff Michael E. Spreadbury filed objections. They are therefore entitled to de novo review of the specified findings or recommendations to which they object. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(I). Because the parties are familiar with the facts, they will not be restated here except as necessary to explain the Court's decision. As a preliminary matter, I do not address Spreadbury's objections which concern issues not connected to his claims against Lee Enterprises--for example, the constitutionality of Spreadbury's dealings with the City Defendants or the incorporation status ofHamilton, Montana-because they are not relevant to the motion under consideration. Nor do I address Spreadbury's new allegations, the objections to issues that have already been settled by this Court, or the objections that are not responsive to specific findings or recommendations made by Judge Lynch on November 30,2011 (dkt # 181). Though Spreadbury argues that summary judgment is not appropriate at this time because he expects additional facts to emerge through interrogatories (dkt # 188,14), he has not met the standard necessary for a continuance under Rule 56(d) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. He has not identified specific facts he hopes to obtain or made any showing that the facts he hopes to obtain actually exist. Family Home & Fin. Ctr., Inc. v. Fed. Home Loan Mortg. Corp., 525 F.3d 822,827 (9 th Cir. 2008)(citation omitted). Accordingly, it is proper to consider Lee Enterprises's summary judgment motion. Id. The following recommendations are adopted: Lee Enterprises's motion for summary judgment on Spreadbury's defamation per se, negligence, and tortious -2 interference with prospective economic advantage claims is denied to the extent the claims are predicated on Lee Enterprises's incorrect publication that Spreadbury was convicted of disturbing the peace when he was actually convicted of criminal trespass. Summary judgment is granted in favor of Lee Enterprises as to Spreadbury's other legal claims for the reasons discussed below. I disagree with Judge Lynch's recommendation to deny summary judgment on the claim for punitive damages. In my view, Spreadbury has failed to produce any evidence of malice. A. Communications Decency Act Lee Enterprises is entitled to summary judgment on the claims that arose from comments posted by third parties on its website. Spreadbury's contention that the Communications Decency Act applies only to "internet service providers such as AOL, Yahoo, or Matchmaker," dkt # 188, 11, is incorrect. The Communications Decency Act protects "providers of interactive computer services against liability arising from content created by third parties." Fair Housing Council o/San Fernando Valley v. Roommates.Com, UC, 521 F.3d 1157, 1162 (9th Cir.2008). "No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider." 47 U.S.C. § 230(c)(1). "Interactive -3 computer services" include websites that encourage users to submit public "comments." E.g. /d. at 1174 (website where subscribers can post housing opportunities); Batzel v. Smith, 333 F.3d 1018 (9th Cir. 2003 (website offering a listserv or message board); Carafano v. Metrosplash.com. Inc., 339 F.3d 1119 (9th Cir. 2003)(intemet dating service); Collins v. Purdue U, 703 F.Supp.2d 862,878 (N.D.Ind. 201O)(newspaper website providing opportunities for users to post comments about articles). Through its website, Lee Enterprises provides an "interactive computer service," 47 U.S.C. § 230(e)(3), that "enables computer access by multiple users to a computer server." Collins, 703 F.Supp.2d at 878 (holding that a newspaper cannot be held liable for postings by third parties on its website)(quoting DiMeo v. Max, 248 Fed. Appx. 280, 282 (3rd Cir. 2007)). The website is a "neutral tool" and offers a "simple generic prompt" for subscribers to comment about articles. Fair Housing Council, 521 F.3d at 1162, 1174. Lee Enterprises does not develop or select the comments, require or encourage readers to make defamatory statements, or edit comments to make them defamatory. See Collins, 703 F.Supp.2d at 878; Miles v. Raycom Media, Inc., Slip Copy, 2010 WL 3419438, *2 3 (Aug. 26, 2010 S.D. Miss. )(holding that a newspaper is not liable for comments posted by third parties on its website). Accordingly, I agree with Judge Lynch that -4 Lee Enterprises is entitled to summary judgment on Spreadbury's claims that are predicated on third-party comments. B. Defamation I also agree that Lee Enterprises is entitled to summary judgment on Spreadbury's defamation claims, which are based on statements about his civil proceedings against various Hamilton officials. These statements were published in an August 9,2010 article. Certain publications are privileged and do not constitute defamation. Montana law provides that a "privileged publication" includes "a fair and true report [made] without malice of a judicial, legislative, or other public official proceeding or of anything said in the course thereof." Mont. Code Ann. § 27-1 804(4). If a statement is not privileged, the plaintiff must support a claim of defamation by establishing that the statement exposed him "to hatred, contempt, ridicule, or obloquy." Mont. Code Ann. § 27-1-802. Most of the statements Spreadbury challenges constitute a fair and true report of his civil proceedings. The record supports the reported amount of damages sought by Spreadbury. Similarly, the transcript supports the article's account of arguments made by an attorney at the August 6, 2010 hearing. Spreadbury has not shown show how Lee Enterprises's report that he stated a law -5 I student was supervised by an assistant county attorney exposed him "to hatred, contempt, ridicule, or obloquy." Mont. Code Ann. § 27-1-802. Nor does Spreadbury show in his objections any grounds for his argument that reporting quotations from the proceedings "out of context" resulted in an unfair 'report. Judge Lynch was correct in finding that Spreadbury failed to present any evidence from which ajury could conclude that Lee Enterprises published any of its news articles with malice. Dkt # 181,9 n.3. His bare allegations ofmalice do not suffice to defeat summary judgment. "A plaintiff must put forth 'sufficient evidence to permit the conclusion that the defendant in fact entertained serious doubts as to the truth of his publication.'" Gorman v. WolpofJ & Abramson, LLP, 584 F.3d 1147, 1168 (9th Cir. 2009)(quoting St. Amant v. Thompson, 390 U.S. 727, 731 (1968». Spreadbury has not shown any evidence of malice behind any of the statements that he challenges. Accordingly, summary judgment on Spreadbury's defamation claims is granted in favor of Lee Enterprises. C. Defamation per se The August 9, 2010 article also stated that Spreadbury was convicted of the crime of disturbing the peace. In fact, he was convicted of criminal trespass. Spreadbury's claim regarding this statement survives Lee Enterprises's summary -6 judgment motion because the statement may constitute defamation per se. However, the jury must decide whether Spreadbury was a limited public figure or a private figure at the time the statement was published. Under Montana law, defamation per se exists when a private actor falsely accuses an individual of committing a crime. Blue Ridge Homes, Inc. v. Thein, 191 P.3d 374, 378, 382 (Mont. 2008); McCusker v. Roberts, 452 P.2d 408, 414 (Mont. 1969); Keller v. Safeway Stores, Inc., 108 P.2d 605, 608-09 (Mont. 1940). The plaintiff need not prove damages; they are presumed. McCusker, 452 P.2d at 414. A defendant may be liable for defamation per se where it reports that a person was convicted of one crime, but the person was convicted of a different crime. See e.g. Towle v. St. Albans Publg. Corp., Inc., 165 A.2d 363,368 (Vt. 1960). Here, Lee Enterprises incorrectly reported that Spreadbury was convicted of disturbing the peace. The standard of care Lee Enterprises must be held to depends on whether Spreadbury is a private figure or a limited public figure. Limited public figures are people who have voluntarily injected themselves into a particular public controversy; they become public figures for that limited range of issues. Kurth v. Great Falls Tribune Co., 804 P.2d 393, 394 (Mont. 1991)(citing Gertz v. Robert Welch, Inc., 418 U.S. 323 (1974)). IfSpreadbury was a private -7 figure at the time of publication, a negligence standard applies. See Madison v. Yunker, 589 P.2d 126, 132-33 (Mont. 1978). Under Montana law, the public figure analysis applies to defamation per se as well as to defamation. In Kurth v. Great Falls Tribune Co., the Great Falls Tribune incorrectly reported that the plaintiff was sought for at least nine criminal charges. 804 P.2d at 394. A false accusation that a person is charged with a crime constitutes defamation per se under Montana law. McCusker, 452 P.2d at 414. Though dealing with defamation per se, the Court still considered if any privilege applied to the statements. Kurth, 804 P.2d at 394. The Court determined that "the controversy [Kurth was involved in was] a matter ofpublic concern as evidenced by the news media coverage ofMMI's activities over a period of several years." ld. at 395. However, the Court held that a genuine issue of material fact existed as to whether Kurth became a limited public figure through his involvement in the controversy. ld. at 395,397. The Court held that a jury must determine this issue under Montana law. ld. Here, Judge Lynch found that Spreadbury was a private figure when the August 9, 2010 article was published because he was no longer running for mayor. Judge Lynch stated that Lee Enterprises "does not argue to the contrary." Dkt # 181,28. However, Judge Lynch did not address whether Spreadbury might be a -8 limited public·figure. Nor did Lee Enterprises argue Spreadbury was a limited public figure in the brief supporting its summary judgment motion. But it did raise this argument in its reply brief and, in detail, in its objections. Many facts in the record could support a fmding that Spreadbury's lawsuits against Hamilton officials constituted a public controversy and that he injected himself into the forefront ofthis controversy. If Spreadbury was a limited public figure, malice is required, meaning the statement must have been published "with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard ofwhether it was false or not." Kurth, 804 P.2d at 394; see also Williams v. Pasma, 656 P.2d 212, 215 (1982)(citingNew York Times v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254, 279-280 (1964)). Because summary judgment is granted as Lee Enterprises as to malice, Spreadbury's defamation per se claim would fail if he was a limited public figure. Beyond his bare assertions, Spreadbury has not shown any evidence Lee Enterprises acted with reckless disregard of the truth or published the August 9,2010 article with serious doubts as to its accuracy. In its objections, Lee Enterprises argues that it is entitled to summary judgment on defamation per se because Spreadbury was a limited public figure. However, Spreadbury has not had the opportunity to respond to this argument. Thus, I do not agree at this point that there is no genuine dispute regarding -9 Spreadbury's status as a limited public figure. The question must go to the jury if there is any dispute in a libel case. Kurth, 804 P.2d at 395,397. Accordingly, Judge Lynch's recommendation that Spreadbury's claim for defamation per se should survive summary judgment is adopted. I also adopt Judge Lynch's finding that Spreadbury has not presented any evidence on which a jury could conclude that published any of its news articles with malice. However, at this point I disagree with Judge Lynch's finding that Spreadbury was a private figure. At a minimum the issue should be addressed on it being properly raised and briefed. D. Negligence and tortious interference with prospective economic advantage Spreadbury's negligence and tortious interference with prospective economic advantage claims are derivative of, or "companion claims" to, Spreadbury's defamation and defamation per se claims. Accordingly, they cannot succeed as independent causes of action; they fail if the predicate claims fail. Unelko Corp. v. Rooney, 912 F.2d 1049, 1057-58 (9th Cir. 1990){dismissing claims for product disparagement and tortious interference with business relationships because predicate defamation failed); Dworkin v. Hustler Magazine, Inc., 867 F.2d 1188, 1193 n.2-3 (9th Cir.l989){"an emotional distress claim based on the same facts as an unsuccessful libel claim cannot survive as an -10 independent cause of action" (quotation marks and citation omitted»; Leidholdt v. L.F.P. Inc., 860 F.2d 890,893,893 n. 4 (9th Cir. 1988Xfinding that emotional distress and false light invasion of privacy claims that are "sufficiently duplicative" oflibel are subject to the same limitations governing the defamation claim, including the malice requirement). Because Lee Enterprises is entitled to summary judgment on Spreadbury's defamation claims, it is unnecessary to address Spreadbury's objections concerning the derivative claims that are predicated on the same facts. I will address his objections concerning those claims where the "gravamen is defamation [per se J." Dworkin, 867 F .2d at 1193 n. 2 (quotation marks and citation omitted). Spreadbury's negligence and tortious interference claims cannot succeed independently of the defamation per se claim; they "succeed or fail together." Leidholdt, 860 F.2d at 893. Furthermore, the same standards and limitations that apply to the defamation per se claim will apply to these claims. /d. If Spreadbury was a limited private figure at the time of the publication, Lee Enterprises will be subject to a negligence standard of care. If he was a public figure, he will have to show malice for all the derivative claims. Id. 1. Negligence Lee Enterprises's summary judgment motion with respect to the negligence -11 claim is denied. Each ofus has a duty to refrain from falsely accusing another of committing a crime. Thus, Lee Enterprises failed to show it owed no duty to Spreadbury. Ifthe standard of care for the defamation per se claim is negligence because Spreadbury was a private figure in August 2010, Spreadbury may also proceed on his negligence claim. If the standard of care requires malice, he may not. 2. Tortious Interference with Prospective Economic Advantage In its objections, Lee Enterprises seeks summary judgment on Spreadbury's claim for tortious interference with prospective economic advantage based on an argument it failed to raise before Judge Lynch. In its opening brief on this motion before Judge Lynch, Lee Enterprises argued that it is entitled to summary judgment on this claim because it committed no wrongful acts. This argument fails because Spreadbury's defamation per se claim could constitute the predicate wrongful act. In its reply brief, Lee Enterprises argued Spreadbury failed to show damages. However, it did not argue, as it does in its objections, that Spreadbury failed to present any proof that Lee Enterprises intended to cause damage to his business. See Maloney v. Home & Inv. Ctr., Inc., 994 P.2d 1124, 1132 (Mont. 2000) (describing the elements of an action for tortious interference). Lee Enterprises should have raised these arguments in its opening brief so -12 that Spreadbury would have the opportunity to respond to them. Though Judge Lynch found, and this Court agrees, that Spreadbury has failed to present any evidence that Lee Enterprises published any of its news articles with malice, it is not clear that malice and intent to cause harm to a business require equivalent proof. A court should not decide new arguments raised in a reply brief or first raised in objections. Accordingly, I will not address Lee Enterprises's arguments concerning damages and intent to cause harm. If there is a trial, Spreadbury will have the opportunity to respond to these arguments. Accordingly, summary judgment is denied on this claim. Since it is predicated on the same facts as the defamation per se claim, it will rise or fall with that claim. E. Negligent and Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress Though Spreadbury's claim that Lee Enterprises is liable for both negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress is also predicated on his defamation per se claim, it does not survive summary judgment. "A district court has the duty of determining the threshold question of whether any proof of such severe emotional distress exists sufficient to raise a question of fact for the jury." Sacco v. High Country Independent Press, Inc., 896 P.2d 411, 422 (Mont. 1995)(quoting First Bank (N.A.)-Billings v. Clark, 771 P.2d 84, 91 (Mont. 1989». As found by Judge Lynch, Spreadbury has failed to present any evidence ·13 from which a jury could conclude that he suffered emotional distress "so severe that no reasonable person could be expected to endure it." Lorang v. Fortis Ins. Co., 192 P.3d 186,222 (Mont. 2008)(quoting Sacco, 896 P.2d at 425-26, 428-29). Spreadbury reiterates in his objections that Lee Enterprises's statement that he had been convicted of disturbing the peace resulted in "permanent disability from work," "humiliation, embarrassment, and other emotional distress (anger, others)," and "permanent impairment to health." Dkt # 188, 13. However, he has provided no factual support for these allegations. Accordingly, his claims for negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress fail to meet the "high standard" that is applied to such causes of action in Montana. See Lorang, 192 P.3d at 222; see also Renville v. Fredrickson, 101 P.3d 773, 775-76 (Mont. 2004) (discussing standard for severity and seriousness). Lee Enterprises is thus entitled to summary judgment as to Spreadbury's claims for negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress. However, the issue of damages for emotional distress is open ifhe prevails on his surviving tort claims. Lorang, 192 P.2d at 223. F. Punitive Damages The only recommendation made by Judge Lynch that I disagree with is his recommendation to deny Lee Enterprises's motion for summary judgment as to -14 Spreadbury's punitive damages claim. A plaintiff in a defamation suit may only recover punitive damages upon a showing of actual malice. Madison, 589 P.2d at 133. I have already adopted Judge Lynch's finding that Spreadbury has failed to show any evidence from which a jury could find malice. Accordingly, summary judgment in favor of Lee Enterprises as to this issue is appropriate. G. Conclusion Contrary to Spreadbury's objections, Judge Lynch's factual findings are supported by the record. Though I disagree with Judge Lynch's determination that Spreadbury was a private figure when the August 9,2010 article was published and the recommendation that summary judgment be denied as to the punitive damages claim, I otherwise adopt Judge Lynch's findings and recommendations. There is no clear error in the findings and recommendations to which the parties did not specifically object. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Judge Lynch's Findings and Recommendations ofNovember 30,2011 (dkt # 181) and January 31, 2012 (dkt # 210) are adopted in part and modified in part. IT IS FURTIIER ORDERED that Lee Enterprise's motion for summary judgment (dkt # 108) is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. Summary judgment is entered in favor of Lee Enterprises as to Spreadbury's -15 Communications Decency Act, defamation, and negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress claims and his claims for punitive damages and injunctive relief. Summary judgment is also granted in favor of Lee Enterprises as to the issue ofmalice. Summary judgment is denied as to Spreadbury's claims against Lee Enterprises for defamation per se, negligence, and tortious interference with prospective economic advantage. Dated this ~t-day of March, 2012. Donal W. Mo loy, District Judge United State strict Court / -16

Have you ever noticed that some people look like their dog? Why is that? I've been pondering that question ever since I saw 101 Dalmatians. But now walking down the streets of New York with spring in the city and passing all these people who are walking there dogs, I'm starting to realise that owners and dogs do look a like.

There are so many things I want to make before the baby is here. I know I've still got six months to do everything but there is so much to do and I've got so little energy. I'm still not doing anything at the moment. But I'm 3 months pregnant now and nausea isn't as bad as it used to be so I'm hoping I will get my energy and my health back soon. For now I want to show you 8 homemade things I really need for the baby. Some things I can make myself, but for some I need some help (I can't crochet). If you know any good baby crafts let me know! I can always use a little more inspiration!
First thing I need (want), but can't make myself, is a crocheted blanket. I love the colorful and soft look of it. For this one I have to ask my mom. I never learned how to crochet and I'm still telling myself that I really need to learn the craft. I just never find the time to do it. I love the colors of this blanket that I found on Flickr. I get happy just by looking at it!
Find my other favorite homemade things for babies after the jump. . .
I don't know what the gender of the baby is and I don't want to know it until it's born. I love those last minute surprises! But because I don't know the gender it's harder to shop for clothes. I find that many clothes are really made for or a boy or a girl. So I won't be buying a lot of things before hand. Something I do want to make is baby pants. Those are good for both genders and it sounds like a really easy project too! This is a pattern from Made By Rae. My pants will not have such bold prints but the pattern looks great and that's what counts doesn't it?
The pattern for these cute little boots is not free but they are so incredibly cute I needed to share them with you. I know it's summer when the baby is born but I can't help myself. It's just too cute…
When my little brother was a baby I remember that I loved those hooded towels. So I need a few of these too. I'm not sure if I will make them or buy them at this point but if I will make them I can always go to the blog of The Purl Bee for some great instructions on how to make them. And look at that cute little baby!
These cute shoes are a little more appropriate for summer. I love the simplicity of these little shoes and the fabric she has used. I think I might even have this fabric somewhere! You can download the pattern here.
A friend of mine really loved the Moby wrap so of course I want one too. Especially because they look so easy to make. I found a great tutorial over at the Elle Apparel Blog.
These diaper covers are so cute and perfect for summer! They would also look great under a dress. The pattern is from Dana Made It.
This rainbow plushie is absolutely adorable. I think every child would love the ribbon on it! It would also make a great gift for new parents. The pattern is from Chez Beeper Bebe.
I hope you liked these DIY projects. If you have more ideas for me please let me know! XO Wilma
3 Responses to 8 Homemade things I want for the baby
Aww those little booties are adorable!!! Have fun creating for the babe!!
Hi Wilma, I read your last posts and I'm so sorry for your nausea period. But I feel close to you, for the same reason. My nausea were not so strong but anyway did slow my work and gave me less energy to craft as well. ;(
I like the stuff you want to make. I will "steal" some of your inspirations and I'll try to update you if I make something by my self.
Soon is coming a period full of energy even for you….believe me! Hugs.
Congrats on your soon-to-arrive baby! Babies are so special and I love your list of things you want for her/him. We didn't find out the gender of our son before he was born, either. It was fun waiting to find out. ♥

Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Obama's Most Dangerous PromiseSeptember 4, 2012 @ 7:00 pm
In a lengthy piece comparing the Obama campaign of 2012 to his triumphant 2008 campaign, the Wall Street Journal reported that the president told aides that his most important first term mistake involved his efforts to work with Republicans and he promised he'd never repeat that mistake in the future.
Ironically, a simultaneous report indicated the president's plans to spend less time campaigning for Congressional Democrats, in view of fading prospects for his party to recapture the House. In other words, Obama insists he won't try to work with Republicans even while his own campaign acknowledges the GOP is likely to hold the House. This guarantees more gridlock if Obama wins-a good thing, perhaps, in preventing disastrous legislative initiatives, but a very dangerous situation with America speeding directly toward fiscal crisis with burgeoning debt and looming national bankruptcy.

Hold me tonite, as we cuddle close
I want to hear your heart's melody
To the symphony of old love songs.
Hold my face, with your tender hands
And kiss me like you never have before
Take my breath away with your lips.
Hold my heart, with simply your soul
I want to feel the purity of your intent
I indulge in knowing that you're all mine.
Hold me as we sleep, so I can dream
Of this beatiful thing called Me and You
That even through the day I dream about
Hold my hand, everywhere we go
Because with you I feel so complete
Baby wherever we are, just hold me
