Al-Mansur or Abu Ja'far Abdallah ibn Muhammad al-Mansur (95 AH – 158 AH (714 AD – 775 AD);[1] Arabic: أبو جعفر عبدالله بن محمد المنصور) was the second Abbasid Caliph from 136 AH to 158 AH (754 AD – 775 AD).[2][3] He is generally regarded as the real founder of the Abbasid Caliphate.
This section needs additional citations for verification. (January 2014) |
Al-Mansur was born at the home of the 'Abbasid family after their emigration from the Hejaz in 95 AH (714 CE). "His father, Muhammad, was reputedly a great-grandson of Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib, the youngest uncle of Mohammad; his mother, as described in the 14th-century Moroccan historical work Rawd al-Qirtas was one Sallama, "a Berber woman given to his father." [4] He reigned from Dhu al-Hijjah 136 AH until Dhu al-Hijjah 158 AH (754 CE – 775 CE). In 762 he founded as new imperial residence and palace city Madinat as-Salam (the city of peace), which became the core of the Imperial capital Baghdad.[5] Al-Mansur was concerned with the solidity of his regime after the death of his brother Abu'l `Abbas (later known as as-Saffah). In 754 he defeated Abdallah ibn Ali's bid for the Caliphate, and in 755 he arranged the assassination of Abu Muslim. Abu Muslim was a loyal freed man from the eastern Iranian province of Khorasan who had led the Abbasid forces to victory over the Umayyads during the Third Fitna in 749–750; he was subordinate to al-Mansur but also the undisputed ruler of Iran and Transoxiana. The assassination seems to have been made to preclude a power struggle in the empire; some findings suggest[citation needed] that Abu Muslim became incredulous and paranoid and that this 'necessitated' the assassination.
When Isa ibn Musa, al-Mansur's intended successor, fell under suspicion of corruption, al-Mahdi was appointed in his stead and publicly swore allegiance. Like his elder brother Saffah he wanted to unite the land, so he got rid of all of his opposition.[citation needed]
During his reign, Islamic literature and scholarship in the Islamic world began to emerge in full force, supported by new Abbasid tolerances for Persians and other groups which had been suppressed by the Umayyads. Although the Umayyad caliph Hisham ibn Abd al-Malik had adopted Persian court practices, it was not until al-Mansur's reign that Persian literature and scholarship were truly appreciated in the Islamic world. Shu'ubiya emerged at this time, due to loosened censorship over Persian nationalism; it was a literary movement among Persians which expressed their belief in the superiority of Persian art and culture, and catalyzed the emergence of Arab-Persian dialogues in the 8th century CE.
Perhaps more importantly than the emergence of Persian scholarship was the conversion of many non-Arabs to Islam. The Umayyads actively tried to discourage conversion in order to continue the collection of the jizya (tax on non-Muslims). The inclusiveness of the al-Mansur's regime (which would continue under subsequent Abbasid rulers) saw the spread of Islam within Abbasid borders: from 750 to 775, the Muslim population of the caliphate increased from 8% to 15%.[citation needed]
In 756, al-Mansur sent over 4,000 Arab mercenaries to assist the Chinese in the An Shi Rebellion against An Lushan; after the war, they remained in China.[6][7][8][9][10] Al-Mansur was referred to as "A-p'u-ch'a-fo" in the Chinese T'ang Annals.[11][12][13][14][15][16][17] [18][19][20][21][22]
Al-Mansur died in 775 on his way to Mecca to make hajj. He was buried somewhere along the way in one of hundreds of graves dug in order to hide his body from the Umayyads. He was succeeded by his son, al-Mahdi.
According to a number of sources, Abu Hanifa an-Nu'man (who founded a school of jurisprudence) was imprisoned by al-Mansur. Malik ibn Anas, the founder of another school, was flogged during his rule, but al-Mansur himself did not condone this – in fact, it was his cousin, the governor of Madinah at the time, who ordered it (and was punished for doing so).[23]
This section does not cite any references or sources. (January 2014) |
Al-Masudi in Meadows of Gold tells of a blind poet, on two occasions, reciting poems of praise for the Umayyads to one he didn't realize was this Abbasid; al-Mansur nonetheless rewarded the poet for the verses. Another tale describes an arrow, with verses inscribed on feathers and shaft, landing near al-Mansur; these verses prompt him to investigate a notable from Hamadan who had been unjustly imprisoned, and release him. There is also an account of foreboding verses al-Mansur saw written on the wall just before his death.
When al-Mansur died, the caliphate's treasury contained 600,000 dirhams and fourteen million dinars.[citation needed]
In 2008, MBC 1 depicted the life and leadership of al-Mansur in a historical series aired during the holy month of Ramadan.

MAHOMEDANS: IEJ Iej. First settled in China in the Year of the Mission, A.D. 628, under Wahb-Abi-Kabcha a maternal uncle of Mahomet, who was sent with presents to the Emperor. Wahb-Abi-Kabcha travelled by sea to Cantoa, and thence overland to Si-ngan Fu, the capital, where he was well received. The first mosque was built at Canton, where, after several restorations, it still exists. Another mosque was erected in 742, but many of these M. came to China simply as traders, and by and by went back to their own country. The true stock of the present Chinese Mahomedans was a small army of 4,000 Arabian soldiers sent by the Khaleef Abu Giafar in 755 to aid in putting down a rebellion. These soldiers had permission to settle in China, where they married native wives; and three centuries later, with the conquests of Genghis Khan, largo numbers of Arabs penetrated into the Empire and swelled the Mahomedan community.Original from the New York Public Library
In 789 the Khalifa Harun al Raschid dispatched a mission to China, and there had been one or two less important missions in the seventh and eighth centuries; but from 879, the date of the Canton massacre, for more than three centuries to follow, we hear nothing of the Mahometans and their religion. They were not mentioned in the edict of 845, which proved such a blow to Buddhism and Nestorian Christianity perhaps because they were less obtrusive in ithe propagation of their religion, a policy aided by the absence of anything like a commercial spirit in religious matters.
The first mosque built at Canton, where, after several restorations, it may still be seen. The minaret, known as the Bare Pagoda, to distinguish it from a much more ornamental Buddhist pagoda near by, dates back to 850. There must at that time have been a considerable number of Mahometans in Canton, thought not so many as might be supposed if reliance could be placed on the figures given in reference to a massacre which took place in 879. The fact is that most of these Mahometans went to China simply as traders; they did not intend to settle permanently in the country, and when business permitted, they returned to their old haunts. About two thousand Mussulman families are still to be found at Canton, and a similar number at Foochow; descendants, perhaps, of the old sea-borne contingents which began to arrive in the seventh and eighth centuries. These remnants have nothing to do with the stock from which came the comparatively large Mussulman communities now living and practising their religion in the provinces of Ssŭch'uan, Yünnan, and Kansuh. The origin of the latter was as follows. In A.D. 756 the Khalifa Abu Giafar sent a small army of three thousand Arab soldiers to aid in putting down a rebellion.
China • Arab troops were dispatched by Abu Gia- far to China.(Original from the University of Michigan )
During the reign of Abbassid Caliph Abu Giafar in the middle of the eighth century, many Arab soldiers evidently settled near the garrisons on the Chinese frontier.(Original from the University of Michigan, Library of Catalonia )

Raphael Saadiq - Radio
Artist: Raphael Saadiq
Producer: Raphael Saadiq
Album: Stone Rollin
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 18 votes )
Seriously, Raphael Saadiq may have the best voice in the game today. Everything the singer does is pure quality – something that cannot be said for many artists, in any genre. With his new single, Radio, the Bay Area crooner continues his streak of classically aimed music. Produced by the man himself, upbeat guitar licks and shakers throw the listener back 50 years with a distinctly vintage sound, while Saadiq flexes his vocal skills and evokes charisma all over the track. With a genuine toe-tapping appeal, the song sounds as if it were made to be played at a school social hosted in the cafeteria, a la the movie Hairspray. One of the remarkable things about this cut is how it effortlessly avoids the cliché of a 'throwback', primarily because of the timeless voice of Saadiq. Be sure to look out for his new album, Stone Rollin, due out March 22, and featuring music from the '60s and '70s with a futuristic, Raphael Saadiq twist. Come to think of it, everything could use a Raphael Saadiq twist.

President Obama unveils $500 million gun violence package, 23 executive actions
WASHINGTON — Conceding "this will be difficult," President Barack Obama urged a reluctant Congress on Wednesday to require background checks for all gun sales and ban both military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines in an emotion-laden plea to curb gun violence in America.
The president's sweeping, $500 million plan, coming one month after the school massacre in Connecticut, marks the most comprehensive effort to tighten gun laws in nearly two decades. But his proposals, most of which are opposed by the National Rifle Association, face a doubtful future in a divided Congress where Republicans control the House.
Seeking to circumvent at least some opposition, Obama signed 23 executive actions on Wednesday, including orders to make more federal data available for background checks and end a freeze on government research on gun violence. But he acknowledged that the steps he took on his own would have less impact than the broad measures requiring approval from Capitol Hill.
"To make a real and lasting difference, Congress, too, must act," Obama said, speaking at a White House ceremony with school children and their parents. "And Congress must act soon."
The president's announcements capped a swift and wide-ranging effort, led by Vice President Joe Biden, to respond to the deaths of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. But Obama's gun control proposals set him up for a tough political fight with Congress as he starts his second term, when he'll need Republican support to meet three looming fiscal deadlines and pass comprehensive immigration reform.
"I will put everything I've got into this, and so will Joe," the president said. "But I tell you, the only way we can change is if the American people demand it."
Key congressional leaders were tepid in their response to the White House proposals.
Republican House Speaker John Boehner's office signaled no urgency to act, with spokesman Michael Steel saying only that "House committees of jurisdiction will review these recommendations. And if the Senate passes a bill, we will also take a look at that."
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said he was committed to ensuring that the Senate will consider gun violence legislation "early this year." But he did not endorse any of Obama's specific proposals.
The president vowed to use "whatever weight this office holds" to fight for his recommendations. He's likely to travel around the country in the coming weeks to rally public support and could engage his still-active presidential campaign operation in the effort. But he'll have to overcome a well-financed counter-effort by the NRA.
"This will be difficult," Obama acknowledged. "There will be pundits and politicians and special interest lobbyists publicly warning of a tyrannical, all-out assault on liberty — not because that's true, but because they want to gin up fear or higher ratings or revenue for themselves."
The president, speaking in front of an audience that included families of some of those killed in Newtown, said 900 Americans had lost their lives to gun violence in the four weeks since the school shootings.
"We can't put this off any longer," Obama declared. "Every day we wait, the number will keep growing."
Many Democrats say an assault weapons ban faces the toughest road in Congress. Obama wants lawmakers to reinstate the expired 1994 ban on the high-grade weapons, and strengthen the measure to prevent manufacturers from circumventing the prohibition by making cosmetic changes to banned guns.
The president is also likely to face opposition to his call for Congress to limit ammunition magazines to 10 rounds.

Hawaii Senate Says YES To Civil Unions, Putting Them Just 1 Governor's Signature Away
Following in the footsteps of the House, Hawaii's State Senate today approved a civil unions bill in a 18-5 vote, sending it to Gov. Neil Abercrombie's desk, where he will sign it. And so ends the reign that ex-Gov. Linda Lingle held in the state, vetoing the matter last year. When Abercrombie signs it, the bill will become law and take effect Jan. 1, 2012. (NB: In other gay news from the Hawaii Senate, lesbian Sabrina McKenna was confirmed as a State Supreme Court justice.)

'One Night of Queen' to rock Fair Park in March
With all the attention focused on the Super Bowl and groups like Prince coming to play that weekend, you may have missed the fact that in March, you can see Queen.
Of course, that's kinda hard since lead singer Freddie Mercury died of AIDS nearly 20 years ago. But it is the next best thing, as the above photo can attest.
Gary Mullen and the Works perform the show One Night of Queen, re-creating the flamboyant musical style of one of the signature bands of the rock era. In the vein of Beatlemania, the concert is a tribute mirror of the original.
The performance takes place March 27 at Fair Park Music Hall. Tickets can be purchased from Ticketmaster.com.

Everyone around here seems to pronounce it CASS-ee-uh instinctively. We have a significant polish population here and I have known a few girls named Kasia, (cash-ah) which is such a pretty spelling/sound (all the polish girls have quite pretty soft sounding names actually)

Secrets & Lies Screening:
Friday, March 18th | 6:30 p.m. | George Washington House
Bahamas | 2010 | Drama | 93 mins | English | 14A | Web Site
Set against the backdrop of a nation grappling with violent homophobic crime and offering a scathing examination of the underlying hatred for gays rampant in Caribbean societies, Bahamian Kareem Mortimer's debut narrative feature tells the story of three very different individuals: Lena, the conservative, deeply religious wife of a secretly gay firebrand pastor; Romeo, a handsome young black man hiding his sexuality from his close-knit and loving family; and, Jonny, the conflicted and creatively-blocked white artist in search of himself.

Smoke, fumes, MPG after swirl replacement
I had my swirl motor replaced on my '07 WK under warranty just over a week ago, and since I've had it back I have:
First I was thinking that the exhaust intake of the turbo wasn't re-assembled properly and not sealed but that I can't feel/see exhaust coming out of those joints. Now I'm wondering whether a fuel rail is not connected tight and leaking. Anyone have any suggestions or experiences to share? I'm taking it back to the dealer tomorrow, but as others have noted, my dealer too can barely spell diesel. |
Re: Smoke, fumes, MPG after swirl replacement
I have heard that the intake manifold sometimes gets cracked when re-assembling after a SM replacement. What did the dealer tell you when you took it back in?
Re: Smoke, fumes, MPG after swirl replacement
I have the same issue - appreciate to know what it is before i take it to the dealer again ? |
Re: Smoke, fumes, MPG after swirl replacement
It turned out the exhaust flange to the turbo-charger was not aligned properly. In my case, that's just a tech doing a sloppy job, because they rush through this since they get paid per job. Don't even get me started on that.
Exhaust was blowing in and by the turbo-charger, which sits up close to the firewall where the cabin air-intake is and that's why. It's a simple fix and not needed if the job was done right to begin with. |
Re: Smoke, fumes, MPG after swirl replacement
i'll try fix it myself - if not parts required. Thanks again !! |

Hosemann: Poll books being handled correctly
Published: July 6,2014

JACKSON — Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann says his office is correctly handling its part in Mississippi's elections and he should be dismissed from a federal lawsuit filed by people seeking access to poll books from the June 24 Republican primary runoff for Senate.
Thirteen Mississippi residents and a Texas group, True the Vote, filed suit Tuesday over access to poll books from the Republican primary runoff between Sen. Thad Cochran and challenger Chris McDaniel. Cochran received about 6,800 more votes than McDaniel, but McDaniel said Thursday that he intends to challenge the loss.
Plaintiffs say they want to look for people marked as voting in the June 3 Democratic primary and the June 24 Republican runoff. State law prohibits such crossover voting, and McDaniel's campaign said a challenge would be based on allegations that such voting occurred.
"In the event the secretary of state's office is made aware of any person voting in both a Democratic primary and a Republican primary, those individuals' names will be forwarded to the district attorney and attorney general for whatever prosecutorial action they deem appropriate," Hosemann said in a news release Thursday.
The lawsuit seeks to force Hosemann and the state GOP to release poll books without redacting voters' birthdates. However, Hosemann and the state GOP say they don't possess the poll books. Primaries are conducted by local political parties, and poll books are kept at county courthouses.
Mississippi Republican Party chairman Joe Nosef said that the party has done nothing wrong and should be dismissed from the lawsuit.
McDaniel's challenge of the election will be filed with the state Republican Party executive committee. After that, his campaign has said he might file a lawsuit in state circuit court.
McDaniel, a state senator from Ellisville, issued a news release Tsaying he intends to pay 15 rewards of $1,000 each to people who "provide evidence leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in voter fraud" in the runoff. He asked for $15 campaign donations to create the bounty.
"The most important issue here is maintaining the integrity of the electoral process here in Mississippi," McDaniel said.
Cochran campaign spokesman Jordan Russell scoffed at McDaniel's plan.
"He doesn't care about the integrity of the process," Russell said of McDaniel. "He only cares about drawing attention to himself, staying in the spotlight and raising money."

Siemens has expanded the Sitop power supply portfolio with the PSU100D switched-mode power supply systems. The new products are single-phase devices with an attractive price/performance ratio for direct mounting on a wall. Screw installation means that a mounting rail is not necessary. The rugged, low-profile aluminum casing with IP20 degree of protection requires little space and permits mounting in different positions. The devices meet all the basic requirements for a power supply and are particularly suitable for installation in apparatus and machines, as well as for use in automation solutions with no standard rail mounting. The temperature range from minus 10 to plus 70 degrees Celsius supports universal implementation even under harsh environmental conditions. The six fan-free variants of the power supplies provide a regulated supply of 24 volts with rated output currents ranging from 2.1 to 6.25 amperes (A) and 12 volts with 3 or 8.33 A. Another 24 V version with an output current of 12 A uses a fan for cooling purposes. For higher outputs, two devices of the same type can be connected in parallel. Single-phase connection to almost any public and industrial supply system is possible thanks to the wide-range input of 85 to 264 V AC, radio interference class B as well as certification in accordance with CE and cULus (Underwriters Laboratories certification for Canada and the USA). The output voltage can be set between 22 and 28 V using potentiometers in the 24 V variants, and between 11 and 14 V in the 12 V variant. A green LED indicates the operating status "Output voltage OK." Electronic short-circuit, overload and overvoltage protection features ensure safety in the event of a fault.

Security Battalions
This article needs additional citations for verification. (May 2012) |
Security Battalions Τάγματα Ασφαλείας |
Participant in the Axis occupation of Greece | |
Men of the Security Battalions resting during an anti-partisan sweep in 1943. They are wearing the service uniform of the pre-war Evzones regiments.
Active | 1943–1944 |
Ideology | Anti-communism, Fascism, Germanophilia |
Leaders | Ioannis Rallis Ioannis Plytzanopoulos |
Headquarters | Athens |
Strength | 22,000 (1944) |
Part of | Hellenic State (1941–44) |
Allies | Wehrmacht, SS, SiPo, National Union of Greece, Hellenic Gendarmerie, Organization X, Poulos Verband |
Opponents | EAM/ELAS, KKE, EDES, EKKA, PEAN, EOK, Greek government-in-exile, Special Operations Executive |
The Security Battalions (Greek: Τάγματα Ασφαλείας, Tágmata Asfalías, derisively known as Germanotsoliades or Tagmatasfalites) were Greek collaborationist military groups, formed during the Axis occupation of Greece during World War II in order to support the German occupation troops.
The Battalions were founded in 1943 by the Greek puppet government of Ioannis Rallis.[1] They were supported by the extreme right and Nazi sympathisers, but also by some centrist politicians who were concerned about the dominance of ELAS (the military arm of the communist-dominated National Liberation Front EAM) as the main body of the Greek resistance[citation needed]. Among the members of the Security Battalions one could find ex-army officers, forcefully conscripted soldiers, conservatives, landowners, extreme-right radicals and social outcasts, as well as opportunists who believed the Axis would win the war.[2]
The main role of the Security Battalions was to fight against ELAS. Their aggregate force was at most 22,000 men, divided into 9 'evzonic' and 22 'voluntary' battalions, under the commands of SS Lieutenant-General Walter Schimana. Although the plan was to expand them all over the occupied Greek territories, their main theater of action was in eastern Central Greece and Peloponnese. At that time, ELAS had already gained control over 1/3 of continental Greece. They remained faithful to the Germans even when the occupation was crumbling. Their last mission was to engage in combat against ELAS and keep them away from the main routes, in order to secure the safe exit of the German troops from Greece.
What the Greek people hated about the Battalions, even more than their collaborationist nature, was the total lack of control over their members. For example after a battle in the hamlet of Attali in Evvia the collaborationists pillaged the houses of the village, taking away 1,000 oka of oil, five sewing machines, 200 ok of cheese and 30 complete trousseaus. 60 mules were needed to carry away the loot. By the end of the occupation their name was synonymous with arbitrary violence and frightful cruelty.[3]
During the war, the Allied-oriented government in exile decried the Security Battalions for treason. After the liberation, the groups were disbanded; many of their members were tried and were convicted of collaborationism. Their creator, Rallis, was sentenced to life imprisonment for treason. He died in prison in 1946 after months of abuse by his guards.
When the first conflicts of the Greek Civil War broke out in December 1944, however, many of them were recruited into the Gendarmerie to fight alongside the British and government forces against the ELAS guerrillas. The Left has accused the governments of the period of utilizing the Security Battalions against the Communists, while others[who?] suggest the Security Battalions joined the anti-communist forces hoping to redeem themselves in the eyes of the public.[citation needed]
Oath of the Security Battalions[edit]
According to uncertain references, recruits to the Security battalion were under the following oath:
I swear by God this sacred oath, that I will obey absolutely the orders of the Supreme Commander of the German Army, Adolf Hitler. I will with loyal dedication perform my duties and obey without condition the orders of my superiors. I fully acknowledge that any objection to the obligations hereby accepted will lead to my punishment by the German Military Authorities.[citation needed]
However, it is reported that Rallis, the PM installed by the occupation forces, in the negotiations for the founding of such militia unit on the side of the Nazi occupation forces, refused to accept this oath as "... Greek military forces can't put their legions to a foreign government... ." It is unknown whether Rallis' views were taken into account by German officials.
- ^ Chimbos, Peter D. (1999), "Greek Resistance 1941-45 : Organization, Achievements and Contributions to Allied War Efforts Against the Axis Powers", International Journal of Comparative Sociology (Brill) 40,
Rallis and the Nazis organized the Greek Security Battalions (Tagmata Asfalias) to counter the EAM/ELAS forces (Hondros, 1983:81 ) which were becoming the most powerful and effective resistance organizations.
- ^ Chimbos, Peter D. (1999), "Greek Resistance 1941-45 : Organization, Achievements and Contributions to Allied War Efforts Against the Axis Powers", International Journal of Comparative Sociology (Brill) 40,
Who were those Greeks who joined the Security Battalions and took an oath to obey the orders of Hitler? They were ex-officers and enlisted men of the Greek army, as well as civilians, with right wing leanings who were sympathetic to the Nazis.

I knew what was happening as well as if I was seeing it - the Company riders, out-sabred, would be drawing off, and sure enough presently the Pathans came down the nullah in good order, clustered round Damodar and the Rani's women; among the last to come was Lakshmibai.
We crossed a deep nullah, and Sher Khan wheeled me all along its far lip, towards a grove of palm and thorn, Where tents were pitched.
I had been on horse-back, riding hard, seeing a shot strike home in a sandy nullah - so why, I wondered irritably, was I now standing up, leaning against something hard, with what seemed to be a polished table top in front of me?
I was ready for it, too, but before I left I found myself riding out on the road to Kota-ki-serai, to have a look at the spot where her people had made a little shrine to Lakshmibai, near the nullah - they thought no end of her, you know, and still do.
That was all I saw before Sher Khan and the other herded me down a little nullah, where we halted and waited while the noise of the skirmish gradually died away.

Re: itunes to nexus 7
Have you downloaded Google Play Music? You'll need to download the Music Manager to your computer and then you can sync your itunes collection to Google Play Music. I have a PC so not sure about your Mac. It takes a while to upload if you have a large collection but once it's done everything you add after that will auto sync to Google Play....I believe if you are running Mac OS 10.5 or above you should be able to accomplish this.
Re: itunes to nexus 7

Re: itunes to nexus 7
Im a 10-month Nexus 7 user and i often use the DoubleTwist for Mac to sync my Nexus 7 with iTunes on my Macbook Pro. Followings are the steps:
1. Separately download and install the DoubleTwist for Mac and DoubleTwist for Android onto your iMac and Nexus 7.
2. Connect your Nexus 7 into your iMac with its USB cable. Once connected, you will be able to see a new storage button on your Mac screen.
3. Run the DoubleTwist app, an instruction will pops up which will explain to you how to sync your iTunes stuff including videos, songs and pictures with your Android device. By the way, for transfer DRM-protected iTunes files, you need to strip DRM from them firstly. This little app can help you do this work.
4. After you fully understand the whole sync process, you can start to do this. It is pretty easy. - 02-25-2013, 07:01 AM #5

Saturday night the Turf Club welcomed the second infestation of local Girl Germs. Like lots of good ideas, it's a simple theme – local musicians paying homage to women in rock. That might mean Kitten Forever taking a pop icon like Beyoncé and making it their own. It might mean Aby Wolf striking perfect pitch of Kate Bush. There's something for everyone, which makes the case that women can't be pigeon-holed – they can rock any genre, any era, any taste.

Madonna Shoots for Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2010 Campaign in Harlem
>> As suspected, it appears that Madonna is back as the Fall 2010 face of Dolce & Gabbana — she was snapped shooting for the brand yesterday in Harlem. The singer, who has a line of sunglasses coming out with Dolce & Gabbana next month, was originally reported to be filming a commercial with Steven Klein for the brand, but based on Stefano Gabbana's stream of tweets yesterday, it seems that the campaign was part of the deal, as well: "I'm going on the set of woman campaign..... The shooting is going very well!!!! She's beautiful.... End of the shooting... Madonna.....she's always the BEST!!!! A lot of paparazzi during the shooting!!!"

Cute book
The book was not very well written but I guess it was intended to be read by an age group younger then mine. (I'm in my young teens). It was pretty funny, the plot a little pointless and it was difficult to feel sympathatic to the character of Floey. All and all, it was nice. Nothing special, nothing terrible. A quick, easy read.

Serve a memorable Easter dinner with Garlic-Herb Roast Leg of Lamb at the center.
All You MARCH 2013
1. Combine rosemary, thyme, parsley, garlic, zest, anchovy fillets, pepper and oil in a food processor; puree until a fairly smooth paste forms, scraping down sides of bowl if necessary. Pat lamb dry and make 1-inch-deep slits all over with a small, sharp knife. Rub paste on lamb and into slits. Place lamb on a rack in a large roasting pan, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours. Transfer to countertop 1 hour before roasting.
2. Preheat oven to 400°F. Roast lamb for 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F and roast until a thermometer inserted in thickest part of lamb, not touching bone, registers 135°F for medium-rare (temperature will rise to 145°F as lamb rests), 1 to 1 1/4 hours longer. Remove lamb from oven, cover loosely with foil and let rest 20 minutes.

it's hard to find quality knobs and pulls.
After several months of searching for the right pulls to go on a piece of furniture that I had built for my master bathroom, I was pleased at the quality and finish work of these pulls. Thank you.

It's Not Just Obama, It's the System
A new President would no more change the form and system of the federal government than would pumping trillions of dollars of tax payer monies create a stable and sound economic system in America
DetailsA new President would no more change the form and system of the federal government than would pumping trillions of dollars of tax payer monies create a stable and sound economic system in America
DetailsDo you think our Federal representatives (or their staffers) care one iota about representing us?
DetailsIt looks like some members of the Republican establishment are starting to fear primary challenges by the Tea Party folks. The Wall Street Journal reports that Colorado Republicans have adopted a "Platform for Prosperity," intended to placate populist outrage, and are strongly encouraging all candidates for state office in 2010 to get on board. The…
DetailsMany of those who currently support president Obama voted as a protest against Bush and the policies of the past 8 years, an administration that was about as transparent as a bottle of mud. The prevailing thought amongst the "Change We Can Believe In" crowd was that America would see an entirely different approach under our new president and consequently an end to the days of Blackwater, torture and the dark ways of his predecessor.
In a recent article in The Nation, Jeremy Scahill, who gained noteriety for noted for his expose on the Blackwater era, informs us that there has been little change in many of the inhuman policies that showered innocent lives with death and destruction during the Bush years.
DetailsHuman nature and history teach us that political labels are used to influence society to accomplish a certain political end. Many times, words used to describe original principles are somehow conquered or hijacked and then proclaimed to be a part of those original principles, but are realistically far from them. As I was growing up, I remember thinking this: "'liberal' equals bad and 'conservative' equals good." "Conservative" was proposed to be a word purely describing the principles believed and proclaimed by America's founding fathers. "Liberal" was proposed to describe those whose only goal was to bring Americans under the control and dominion of the federal government. As it turns out, these words and descriptions were not only misleading and narrow-minded in their application, but they were also incorrect in their origin. Today, neither "conservative" nor "liberal" accurately describe the philosophy and principles they purport to advocate. Consequently, freedom suffers because of America's ignorance of and infatuation with these labels, contrary to George Washington's warning of this very tragedy.
Perhaps the status quo is no longer holding; people are growing more and more dissatisfied with their options, whether democrat or republican.
The truth is, the current two-party system always leaves one half of a country ticked off and feeling oppressed. This begs the question; is this really what the Founders intended 233 years ago when they signed a document that started the country? Did they really intend Congress to manipulate 3 Clauses in Article 1 Section 8 so as to rack up a $105 trillion dollar debt? Did they intend to have the 10th Amendment ridiculed like it was by David Shuster on MSNBC? Did they really want one-half of the country perpetually angry at the other?
DetailsThe two-party system has failed miserably as sadly, both parties support the status quo…BIG GOVERNMENT and therein lies the problem. The fundamental question is whether this is what the Founders desired? If we believe the Founders wanted a HUGE bloated ever-encroaching federal bureaucracy, the current two-party system fits the bill. However, there's one problem with this scenario,…
DetailsWhat was once depicted as a grave act of lawlessness — Bush's NSA program — is now deemed a vital state secret. The Obama administration, happy to hold on to the power that the Bush administration handed to it, is now saying "toss the wiretap lawsuit." Why? Because it threatens to expose ongoing government intelligence…
DetailsAre You Finally Ready To Trust Your Conscience?
Most politicians are not bad people, but the system has a way of chewing them up and spitting them out. Once in the system, they learn to play the game and almost always compromise their integrity when it can be justified and even sometimes when it cannot. This is done while we look the other way if it's "our guy" and/or they give us something we want. That's the insidiousness of democracy and these "representatives" continue to do anything to stay in power.
Many of the problems that we face today can mostly be chalked up to our divisions fueled by our two beloved major parties. While we're fighting each other and pinning down scapegoats, the hotshot politicians are laughing all the way to the bank (you know…Citi, Goldman, so on and so forth).
I don't believe citizens who still identify themselves as Republicans and Democrats are happy with the destination that either of our parties is taking us; they simply don't know how to address mess they find themselves in. My gut tells me that the majority my fellow citizens want a representative to rely on defined accountability, common sense, and a set of principles that value the unalienable rights and responsibilities of the individual.
DetailsThe Constitution. Every issue, every time. No exceptions, no excuses.
GET ACTION STEPS to support nullification in your state today.
Choose the issue important to you in your state, and get the tools you need to push back against federal overreach.

Meaux Travel guide
Meaux : Michelin's recommendations
An agricultural market centre amid the Multien wheat plains and green countryside of the Brie region, between two small rivers known as the «Morins», the city was part of the lands owned by the Counts of Champagne. It is now a «middle-sized city» in the throes of expansion. It has many historic connections with the great preacher, Jacques Bénigne Bossuet (1627-1704), famous for his funeral orations and the city's bishop from 1682 to 1704.

If the app only allows you to control it via DDE, you have to use DDE. You should be able to install Win32::DDE from http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/. In reply to Re: DDE calls using Win32::OLE?
