"Abortion is all about the intent to kill," says the Latino-outreach director for National Right to Life, Raimundo Rojas. "But that was not the case here. When the child was delivered, he became a patient. He was given top-notch medical care. Had the child not been so sick, he would have survived."
"All these groups talk about is the abortion — all they care about is the abortion," Rojas says of pro-abortion groups operating in Latin America, increasingly a battleground between pro-life groups and their pro-abortion opponents. "These are people who believe that women in the fields, in the swamps, can achieve parity with their sisters in the big cities simply by having access to abortion." Acknowledging that Beatriz's case was successfully resolved without recourse to abortion detracts from the storyline that women in the Third World who lack access to legal abortion are oppressed or in grave danger.
Marianne Mollmann, a senior policy adviser for Amnesty International's International Secretariat, writing for the International Planned Parenthood Federation, claims: "Where abortion is illegal, it is equally — if not more — prevalent than in jurisdictions where it is legal. Also where abortion is illegal, it is much more likely to be unsafe." It is well documented that the number of abortions in America increased dramatically after Roe v. Wade, and if the number of abortions has hit an all-time low in the past five years, it is not because of lowered barriers; recent years have seen states pass increasingly restrictive laws against abortion. As for Mollman's second claim, David Reardon, director of the Elliot Institute, observes, "The basic flaw in this argument is the false assumption that a change in legal status can make safe a medical act that is inherently unsafe." That such a thing as "safe" abortion exists is a tenuous assertion at best, as investigations in the wake of Kermit Gosnell's "house of horrors" repeatedly show.
But Rojas says that "reproductive rights," to use the parlance of abortion advocates, obscure more pressing issues: "These are women who worry about getting potable water."
And as for who actually helps women, Beatriz's case is instructive: "The medical help she received was because of the pro-life groups in El Salvador," Rojas notes. "They got this girl into a hospital and got her treatment." Their pro-abortion counterparts, meanwhile, "objectify and shamelessly exploit these poor women in Latin America." And when the mother is no longer politically useful, "she will soon be forgotten."
Moreover, Rojas adds, abortion supporters, in their push for legalization, are willing to undermine national sovereignty, regional mores, and local customs. Pro-abortion groups, the United Nations, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, and a host of other organizations attempted to sway El Salvador's authorities to overturn its laws. "Do countries have a right to their laws?" Rojas asks. "Or do these outside groups . . . have a right to decide what is or what is not unjust law?" In Beatriz's case, he says, "national laws were protected." It was a success not only for pro-life advocates but also for the citizens of El Salvador, who saw the rule of law in their country upheld.
Still, Rojas's focus is not on the politics but on the people: "This isn't a victory — there is no victory here; a baby is dead, a mother is mourning." Yet even amid tragedy, Beatriz's case offers a glimmer of hope to those working to protect every life in the Third World.

Aerial tramway accesses unique lodge setting at Pipestem Resort State Park
Aerial tramway accesses unique lodge setting at Pipestem Resort State Park

Office of the Governor
PIPESTEM, W.Va. – It sweeps from the Upper Station at Pipestem's Canyon Rim Center to the floor of the Bluestone Canyon. It crosses the Bluestone River before arriving at Mountain Creek Lodge. It is the only public access to this 30-room vacation hotel-style accommodation complete with upscale dining. The aerial tramway at Pipestem Resort has been open since 1971 and is one of two trams of its kind in North America.
Designed by Mueller Lifts, the total length of the aerial run is 3,410. The highest elevation is 2,639 with the lowest elevation at 1,520. It takes six minutes from top to bottom and can transport up to 400 persons per hour.
There is a minimal fee to ride the tram from the bottom at Mountain Creek Lodge back to the top. "Mountain bikers enjoy the ride down the mountain and the option to have a lift back to the top," said Dave Caplinger, park superintendent.
The aerial tram fee without hauling equipment is $6 for adults and $4 for children ages 5-12. Kayakers taking advantage of the Bluestone River appreciate the ride as well. There is an additional $4 fee per bike or kayak transport. "With a vertical rise of 1,097 feet out of one of the more remote canyons in the east, even the hardiest biker or kayaker appreciates the smooth, easy trip," Caplinger said.
Pipestem's aerial tramway, Mountain Creek Lodge and Mountain Creek restaurant opened May 17 and will remain open until late October. Tram hours are 8 a.m. until 10 p.m. The tram does not operate during scheduled maintenance conducted on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1 to 4 p.m.
Mountain Creek Lodge is open from May 17 to Oct. 27, and guests here have free access to the tram. Gourmet dining is from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. daily and reservations are encouraged, but lodge guests can enjoy a daily complimentary continental breakfast. Views from room balconies at Mountain Creek Lodge are of the Bluestone River. The lodge has horseshoes, volleyball and other outdoor games as well as an indoor game room.
Mountain Creek Lodge also is the destination for the extremely popular spring and fall Trout Wrangler horse and fly fishing packages that are offered when the tram is not in operation. A section of the Bluestone River is a delayed harvest catch-and-release area until June 1, so trout fishing can be outstanding early in the season for Mountain Creek guests.
Reservations for this unique lodge setting can be made by telephone at 304-466-1800 or online at
. The website includes additional information on the park's amazing array of lodging and recreational opportunities, including golf, swimming, nature activities, amphitheater shows, dining and hiking.

Why doesn't this happen to me?!
by Meg Young
posted Sep 25 2012 8:30PM
So... this woman in North Carolina goes to her local Goodwill store, and finds this large (rather unimpressive) painting on canvas. She paints cats... cats... so she buys the canvas painting for $9.99 with the intention of painting over it (a cat, of course). Long story short... a few months later, she ends up selling the painting (an original "Vertical Diamond" by
Ilya Bolotowsky) for
That will buy her a lot of canvases... for a lot more cats.

They said they had tried but that the system would not allow them to remove my name from those calls. I DO NOT appreciate getting the calls at work or on my home phone.

What makeup do you wear to meet your significant other's parents for the first time? What don't you wear?
This is a very quick post, because I'm in between classes, and I can't get over how lovely the Beiges de Chanel quad is. The quad comes from Chanel's Holiday 2008 offerings, which are lovely in their own right, but this is the only item I've been able to see and play with in person. I did a super fast look using the quad before I jetted off to class–seriously, five minutes or less–and I was so pleased with the results! The colors are so soft and smooth, and they're incredibly flattering. They blend seamlessly with each other! I even take back what I said about the "highlight" color — it might swatch chalky, but it softens like a dream when actually used. So truly, I urge you all to visit your local Chanel counter for a look-see and swatch-a-roo when it's fully released! (It's been popping up in some areas, but not all.)
You will need the following…
- Eyes: Lark About pigment (white duochrome), Blue Zone 2 Eyeshadow Duo (light lavender/dark periwinkle), Parfait Amour eyeshadow (purple), Rite of Spring eyeshadow (purple-toned highlighter), Rave pearlglide liner (purple), Chanel Exceptionnel Mascara (black)
- Cheeks: Petalpoint blush (soft peachy pink)
- Lips: Hot Gossip lipstick (cool, bright pink), Crystal Rose lipglass (pink with fuchsia-purple shimmer)
- Brushes: 266 (firm, angled brush), 249 (flat, firm brush), 239 (fluffy shadow brush), 129 (dense blush brush)
- Substitutes: Lark About = Frozen White; Blue Zone = none for lighter color; Parfait Amour for darker (not a great dupe!); Rite of Spring = Pink Opal; Petalpoint = Breezy; Crystal Rose = Flashmode
Directions: Define brows using a coordinating powder shadow applied with the 266 brush. Apply Lark About pigment all over the lid as the base with the 249. On the inner-to-middle lid, apply Blue Zone duo (light side) using the 239. Apply Parfait Amour to the outer-middle lid. Darken the outer lid using Blue Zone duo (dark side) and drag into crease using the 239. Sweep Rite of Spring eyeshadow underneath the brow bone to highlight. Finish with Rave pearlglide liner on lower lash line, and Chanel Excetionnel mascara on lashes. Sweep apples of cheeks with Petalpoint blush using the 129. Apply Hot Gossip lipstick to lips, and then top with Crystal Rose lipglass for color and shine.

Read more »
Heather Sloan has landed her dream job --- the renovation of Vic Scarlatti's stately 1912 country home overlooking the icy waters of Echo Lake in Knights Bridge, Massachusetts. It's the perfect project for the family business, but for once, Heather is in charge.
Diplomatic Security Service agent Brody Hancock left Knights Bridge at 18, a few steps ahead of arrest and the wrath of Heather's older brothers. Though Brody had never planned to return, Vic, a retired diplomat and friend, needs his help.
It is 1960 in North Carolina and the lives of Ivy Hart and Jane Forrester couldn't be more different. Fifteen-year-old Ivy lives with her family as tenants on a small tobacco farm, but when her parents die, Ivy is left to care for her grandmother, older sister and nephew.

Any good tips on games with gorgeous graphics?
General Gaming « General Discussion 12/01/14 10:17:11 PM
In terms of straight up visual eye candy with no bounderies per say Skyrim with mods would be your best bet. Watch_Dogs with the graphic improving mod is pretty good too. Sleeping Dogs - Definitive Edition is supposed to have vastly improved graphics from the original though I haven't played the Definitive Edition yet so I can't say how much better they are though the original's graphics weren't too bad.

Please help, can anyone recommend me any latest or hottest game that you are playing?
General Gaming « General Discussion 11/26/14 10:58:55 PM
I'd have to agree with the Zenonia series being a good one to check out as well as Order & Chaos Online, Pocket Legends, or any of the SquareEnix games. If you like RPGs Kemco has a bunch of pretty good ones out like Eve of the Genesis and Dark Gate. Kritika is worth checking out though it's one of those you play for 5-10 minutes and then have to wait or pay to continue playing... Lemegeton is pretty much a Castlevania clone and is pretty well done in my opinion. Others I think are worth checking out are:
Granted not many of these are the latest, but they are in my opinion among the greatest. |
The only way to give the feeling of progression and achievement without levels that I can think of is to make the game equipment based without the ability to refine your equipment (since that would be a form of leveling). Each area would drop certain equipment that you would need to farm in order to survive the next area, but then it becomes a gear grind rather than a level grind.
Originally posted by Cryomatrix But anything that increases in ability is leveling up. When you increase your stats you just leveled up your stats. Thus there would still be leveling. It just wouldn't be a number attached to your character's name. The main reasons there are levels in RPGs and such huge power differences in MMOs between levels is because it provides a sense of accomplishment and reward. The higher leveled character feels like they accomplished something while the lower level player has more of a drive to catch up. That's the idea anyways though it doesn't work on everyone. |
Do you want Virtual Reality MMO-Games? (Yes or No)
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 9/14/14 10:47:24 PM
If you're talking something like Sword Art Online or Log Horizons then I'm in! Make it require more player skill while the stats enhance what skills the player already has while active skills would be something that would go beyond any skills anyone could possibly have such as dashing forward faster than anyone could possibly run and hacking away at every mob in your path for melee based classes. Obviously casters will have their spells.
If I were to compare this game's story/content to another game's story/content it would be Fable. After Fable released everyone complained about being able to speed through the story in a matter of hours, but what they never bothered to do was enjoy the game for what the developers meant the game to be. They didn't intend for players to focus solely on the story but on other objectives like exploring, starting a family, whatever. Like Fable a lot of people are complaining about the Story and how short it is. Have they even bothered to try Exploration Mode? The maps are fairly large and in Exploration Mode there are beacons scattered around the map that give side-quests. The first reviewer complained about the enemies and how easy they were, but did he ever bother attempting hard mode or did he just play through on normal? I myself haven't yet attempted hard mode, but the enemies are supposed to be more aggressive and of course numerous. Bosses do take a while to kill depending on what weapon you're using. I have found that Pulse Rifles tear through most mobs with ease including bosses, but they require a charge up before they fire, each shell fires 5 or so rounds, and only the first round goes where you're aiming as the recoil from the gun is massive. So for the gun to be most effective you have to be fairly close. Ultimately Destiny isn't for people that like to race through story missions as they miss a lot of the content. |
What is your role in 'The Trinity?'

I think the class/game I enjoyed playing the most was a Bard in Eden Eternal where I supported everything. I buffed, I threw in heals here and there when the healer couldn't keep up, and I added DoT to the boss.

@PvEers: If you had the power and could punish PvPers in the game some how, what would do?
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 6/03/14 5:41:20 PM
I personally think it would be great if there was a notoriety system in place where the more notorious you are (from PKing) the more likely city/town guards will attack you on sight as well as random, roaming patrols (along roads of course). Also a bounty system where players could goto a bounty collector or something and pay whatever they wanted to create a bounty with a minimum based on their level and what they could be expected to have which then gets multiplied by a multiple based on their level (that way bounties played by low levels will still be as appealing since the lower levels probably wouldn't have as much money as the higher levels) which then becomes the reward amount for the first person that accepts the bounty and then returns with evidence of completion of bounty. Of course the evidence of completion item would be a quest item that would only drop for those that had taken the bounty, and only if someone else hadn't already completed it.
I don't understand what is appealing about this game.
General Discussion « Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn 5/25/14 3:08:53 PM
Makes me wonder just what quests the op is referring to because if the op did the main quests the op would see there is plenty of story, or maybe the op is one of those people that speed through quest dialog without even reading it then complains there is no story. As for having nothing to do with Final Fantasy, has the op even played a Final Fantasy game before XIV or XI?

Building a new computer for my wife need some advice
Hardware « General Discussion 5/17/14 11:04:37 AM
I personally always piecemeal my computer, but I always buy my parts so that I can use them and just add to it as I can get the new parts. Like right now I'm in the process of piecemealing a computer together and for starters I bought me a MSi Z87 M Powered Max AC Motherboard (thinking I should have waited for the Z97 version...) and an i5 4670K CPU. I dropped those in with my other, old parts which I plan to replace as I get the expendable money so I know right off the bat if they work or not. So what I'm saying is if you're going to piecemeal your computer together buy the parts in a way you can use them still while you wait to be able to buy the other parts. I would save up and buy the Motherboard and CPU together first since you'll most likely be able to use the other parts from the old computer with the new motherboard unless the old computer is really old.
Hex: Wizards of the Coast Files Suit Against Cryptozoic
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion 5/15/14 5:14:23 PM
It seems fairly obvious from this thread (I don't really know much about Hex, but now I kind of want to) that this is just a stunt to try to get Cryptozoic to go under from legal fees because they're going to put out a better game than WotC did.
Originally posted by Reizla I run Windows 8 and was able to reinstall it when I upgraded my Motherboard just fine. Had to do it by phone, but so far no issues, but that's beside the point. When it comes to the Android SDK why not just copy the folder to a USB stick as I don't think it makes any registry modifications or links to anything outside the folder (you probably know more about this than I do since I only really use the SDK for ADB) and that'll save on having to redownload that. As well as any other large installers that you need. It'll at least cut down the downtime of your computer and save you all that download time. |
If it's anything like Diablo 2 was you'll have to replay all the previous Acts. However I don't know how Adventure Mode works (I haven't yet had a chance to boot up the game) so you might be able to skip straight to Act 5 (it's what RoS adds) using it.

I say give TERA Online a try. It's one of those games where you either like it or you hate it, but still worth trying. Its camera is similar to GTA and Assassin's Creed. Only limitation is that your character will attack in whatever direction the camera is facing.

Comments about TUBBS Xplore 30 Snowshoes:
I read the other previous comments about the fragile quality of these snowshoe bindings, etc., so I am careful about strapping the bindings on (with correct right and left positions for the shoes) and not pulling and stretching the back strip of binding outwards, away from the shoe (instead of pulling it back toward the heel). I also make sure that my feet are as far forward as possible in the front bindings and that the back binding goes higher up, and snug, over the back of my heel . Under these circumstances the shoes,and bindings, work well and manage to get me through three feet of snow....

Satisfied with the quality of the cartridges. Will certainly purchase again.
I only printed 9 sheets of paper and then the ink had ran out
I was concerned when ordering as to whether this remanufactured cartridge would give me the quality print I hoped for, and it did just that. Could not have been more pleased with the results, and will not hestitate to order again.
I was leery since this was a off brand cartridge for my printer. It fits into the computer fine, and is printing good quality pages.
good product. works fine. use it frequently just as advertised

No less impressive is Central Park, an 843-acre swath of lush nature, open meadows, and quaint, winding paths alive with joggers, sunbathers, sports enthusiasts, cyclists, and dog walkers in a never-ending quest for outdoor activities in the big metropolis.
It's no surprise that in such a compact and diverse city, one can find culture on every corner, from the iconic silhouette of the Empire State Building, the otherworldly expanse of Chinatown, and the tourist-mobbed Times Square to looming historical institutions and landmarks like the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Rockefeller Center, or the latest blockbuster theater performances on Broadway.
And not to be forgotten among New York's cultural treasures is the full schedule of parades and festivals celebrating every major holiday, religion, race, creed, and culture.

Got Questions? We've got answers from experts and parents who've been there.
I'm 17 weeks through my second pregnancy and I am wondering: Is it common to be able to feel baby kicking quite hard and regularly this early? Sometimes I can even feel it scraping its limbs across my belly and it hurts sometimes, too.
It is very common for women to feel fetal movements earlier in subsequent pregnancies. Women may also feel more discrete fetal movements rather than "flutters" at an earlier gestational age.
The answers from our experts are for educational purposes only. Please always refer to your child's pediatrician and mental health expert for more in-depth advice.

A commission for girafffecupcakes. I hope you enjoy.
You looked over the shoulder of your best friend, Ivan Braginski, as you shoved a black plastic fork into your mouth, taking a bite of the Mac and Cheese on your (favorite color) plate.
In the distance, maybe thirty feet away, you saw a man with a long black coat on, looking over at the table. He had silver-ish blonde hair, but you couldn't tell much more than that, other than a cowlick, similar to the one in your ex-boyfriend, Alfred's, hair. He was peering around the corner, as if he were trying to make sure everything went okay. You felt your heart skip a beat as you looked at him.
"Ivan…" You looked over at him, unfocusing your eyes and letting your thoughts escape your head, "who's that?" You shifted your eyes back at the man in the black coat, hoping that your best friend would catch on.
Ivan followed your gaze and looked at the same figure you did, after turning his body in the correct direction. "Oh, him." Ivan turned back towards you and finished his sentence. "That's my little brother, Nikolai."
"Oh," you said, looking at Ivan. "So, you're.. related?"
"Da. But he is almost complete opposite of me. "
"How so?" You picked up more of your Mac and Cheese with your fork before putting it back in your mouth.
"Well," Ivan started, "He is very creepy. He is always watching over me, asking me strange questions. It's like he's obsessed with me or something… It gives the me creeps every time I think about it." Shivers went down Ivan's spine as he talked about his brother, recalling past events and conflicts with Nikolai.
"Wow," you said in response, "Is he that creepy?" You kept your voice down, hoping Nikolai wouldn't hear you.
"Da. Sometimes I wish we didn't live together."
"That must suck," you said in reply.
Ivan nodded his head.
You took another bite of your Mac and Cheese as you looked at your phone for the time. After swallowing the food, you stood up and pushed in your chair, slipping your phone into your back pocket. "Sorry, Ivan, but I need to go. I'll text you?"
"That's perfectly fine, __________. Bye." Ivan smiled as he waved you goodbye with one of his gloved hands.
"See you later." You walked away from the table and in the direction Nikolai was in. You pulled your earbuds, untangling them before you felt yourself being dragged off to some place. You looked at the direction you were being pulled in, to find the person you were being dragged by, however, you couldn't make out who it was. "H-hey! What do you think you're doing??" You attempted to break free, but their grip was too tight.
"Don't bother trying to get free, __________. You'll never escape my grasp." The person spoke in a kind of creepy voice, but it was definitely male.
"Wait a minute… Is your name Nikolai?"
The male was silent as he increased the pace of you two, not replying.
"Answer my question! Is your name Nikolai?" You tried getting your wrist free again, only to cause the man's grip to tighten.
After a minute of hesitation, he spoke. "How did you know?"
"Your brother told me about you."
Nikolai stopped moving, making you run into him. "How close are you to my brother? What do you mean to him?"
"W-we're best friends. Nothing more." You blushed as you spoke, your tongue getting a little twisted.
"Well, stop," Nikolai said suddenly."Ivan belongs to me." He suddenly threw a death glare at you, seriously giving you a warning.
"No." You were starting to feel mad at Nikolai for telling you to stop being friends with Ivan. "We enjoy being with each other. We enjoy each other's company. Just hearing you telling me to stop being his friend isn't going to make me stop being his friend."
The last thing you saw was Nikolai nod, before your world went black.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Some time later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You opened your eyes slowly, blinking to get your blurry vision back to normal. Once your vision wasn't blurry anymore, you took the opportunity to figure out where you were. It looked like a bedroom. After looking around, you figured you were in the middle of the room for some reason. You sighed and attempted to move your hand to fix a piece of your hair that felt out of place, but couldn't move it. Confused, you looked behind you to find yourself loosely handcuffed to a desk behind you.
"Don't bother moving, __________. It's no use. You're not escaping."
You looked to where the voice was coming from to find Nikolai sitting on the bed with his legs over the edge. you could have sworn that he wasn't there earlier. You blushed upon seeing him. "Why are you here?"
Nikolai sighed. "Big Brother sent me up here. He told me to come up here, with no reason. Who the hell does he thing he is?"
"I can't believe I'm in here with you," you said after he finished talking. "And to think, you have a really big brother complex."
"I do not," Nikolai retorted back.
"You so do. Ivan told me all about it. And to think I thought you were cute…"
Nikolai blushed at this. "You… What?"
"Never mind," you said. "It doesn't matter anymore."
"No, say it. Now."
"Fine," you said. "I said that I thought you were cute. Better?" You blushed as you turned your head, saying the last thing you wanted to say.
Nikolai blushed as well, not knowing what to do.
"You don't have to accept it or anything, it's just something that accidentally came out of my mouth-"
You looked at him suspiciously after he spoke.
"I… I like you too. I've been watching you, ever since you became friends with Big Brother. At first, I was afraid of you and Big Brother becoming too close, since he is everything I have. People have been shunning me since we were children because of my 'brother complex,' so Big Brother was the only one I saw that I liked. But, as time went on, I came to like you too. Your smile is attractive, your eyes shone nicely, your hair is beautiful, I thought I finally met someone who I liked more than Big Brother. I regret not talking to you earlier." Nikolai looked down at his lap, embarrassed that he had told such a story.
You took a moment to take it all in. "So… Um… Do you want to go out?"
"N-no!" Nikolai pouted as he spoke. "I-I mean…. yes." His blush grew deeper.
"Thanks," you said, blushing while looking into his eyes. "Hey…"
Nikolai looked at you, waiting for the next thing for you to say.
"Will you undo these handcuffs?" You held up your hands as you laughed nervously.
Nikolai chuckled. "Sure." He got off of the bed and took the handcuffs off your wrists.
"Thanks again." You stood up and rocked back and forth on your feet. "Anyways, I should go home, my parents are probably worried about me." You turned around before asking Nikolai another question, looking back at him. "Did you tell Ivan I was here?"
"Alright. Anyways, bye." You waved at your new boyfriend as he waved back, walking out of the door.
"Hey, Ivan," you called out as you went into the living room.
Ivan looked at you with confusion, turning his attention from his book to you. "Huh? _________, why are you here?"
"Nikolai dragged me here." You sat down on the couch next to Ivan. "What book are you reading?"
"Wait, my little brother dragged you here?"
"Yeah.." You blushed as you recalled the events. "It was really awkward, but we ended up having something in common, surprisingly."
"Y-you do?"
"Yeah. Not an expected one, in all honesty." You scratched the back of your head, feeling your heart beat louder.
"What is it, __________?"
"We like each other."
Ivan froze, not knowing what to say. "You a-and.. Nikolai?"
"Told you it was unexpected."
"So you and Nikolai are….."
"Yeah. We're going out now." You stood up, smiling. "Anyways, I need to go home, so I'll talk to you later, okay?"
"See you!" You giggled slightly as you left the house, heading out for your own.

Wisconsin Governors Honor Former State Leader Patrick Lucey
By Marge Pitrof
Attending Monday's funeral in Milwaukee for former Gov. Patrick Lucey were Gov. Walker and former Govs. Doyle, McCallum, Thompson and Schreiber.
Lucey died May 10 at age 96. He had served as Wisconsin's Democratic governor from 1971 to 1977, when he resigned in the middle of his second term to become U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, under former President Jimmy Carter.
In 19980, Lucey ran unsuccessfully for Vice President as an independent, with John Anderson atop the ticket.
Republican Thompson commented after Monday's funeral that Lucey helped grow the state Democratic Party into a "tremendous organization, much to my chagrin."

Apple to pay Samsung legal fees in UK judgment
Apple has been ordered to pay Samsung's legal fees on an indemnity basis, after being ordered to remove a "false and misleading" notice of judgment it had previously posted on the Apple U.K. website. The legal decision was rendered due to Apple's initial website notice in which the company made reference to its "cool" and "far more popular" iPad in comparison to the Galaxy tablet and pointed to other courts' decisions in Apple's favor in similar cases. As noted in the judgment, fees awarded on an indemnity basis are "higher than the normal, 'standard' basis" and were awarded "as a mark of the court's disapproval of a party's conduct, particularly in relation to its respect for an order of the court. Apple's conduct warranted such an order." Further analysis of the removed website notice is included in this most recent decision, stemming from Apple's appeal loss to Samsung over tablet design infringement.

About Me
We May Never Pass This Way (Again) (Lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals & Dash Crofts, 1973) Life, so they say, is but a game and we let it slip away. Love, like the Autumn sun, should be dying but its only just begun. Like the twilight in the road up ahead, they dont see just where we are going. And all the secrets in the Universe, whisper in our ears And all the years will come and go, take us up, always up. Dreams, so they say, are for the fools and they let em drift away. Peace, like the silent dove, should be flying but its only just begun. Like Columbus in the olden days, we must gather all our courage. Sail our ships out on the open sea. Cast away our fears.

Hello, I'm not related in any way to the FELAND family, but I was browsing Abebooks.com for books on Missouri genealogy and noticed they had a book on FELAND family history. It's called "The Feland family 1750-1979" and is by Larry A. James. It apparently has a lot of information on the Feland family from Ireland to Lynchburg, Virginia and on to Howard County, Missouri. They are only asking $10 for the book, plus shipping. If you're interested in the book, go to www.abebooks.com and search for the word Feland. Then click on the title of the book to get the bookseller information and you can go from there. I have no connection with Abebooks.com. I'm just passing this info along in case someone here would like to have the book. Best regards, K. Stewart Notify Administrator about this message?

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Two- One Chinaman killed one other dude. Compared to how many other OC
related killings in Sao Paulo this year? I have no idea, but it doesn't
sound to me like this one killing makes a huge difference, unless you can
show other signs of growing presence. Also, what is the ethnicity of the
accomplice and the victim. If they are all Chinamen, this isn't out of
the ordinary, and doesn't have anything to do with whatever other OC
territory there is, as Chinese would take loans from Chinese anyway.
Three- However, a tactical look at this event would be pretty interesting
if we can get more details on who killed who exactly and how. I would
like to know about hte practice targets--that sounds like it would be some
really entertaining operational prep to watch. DWA!
Also what are all these other acronyms? who are they? and why do they care
about a little Chinese OC?

This event demonstrates the growing presence of foreign trans-border
criminal organization in Brazil, particularly strands of the chinese
mafia (cm). The presence of the cm is to be expected with the steadily
growing chinese populace present in southern parts of Brazil. Whilst
the presence of a large-scale serious criminal organization like the
cm in Brazil is worrying enough (seemingly already secure enough to be
carrying out racketeering and loan-shark operations), their presence
could have a more serious effect on the local criminal organizations
like the CV, ADA or PCC. With the crackdown of state governments on
various favela strongholds and the constrution of greater numbers of
UPPs, an accomadation for mutual support might be reached between the
two nationalities. This could be a threat the local Brazilian forces
would be ill-equipped to counteract.
