New Orleans Hotel?
Anybody know of a decent, halfway economically priced hotel in walking distance of Bourbon Street?
Have only been to NO once and I wouldn't want to stay where I stayed before!
Boy, I will try to dig it up for you, but we stayed it a very cool small hotel in walking of Bourbon street and the historic area, but at this moment I can't recall it.
We stayed there a few years back and I will have to dig my brain to find the name. It was in the AAA book, had a great breakfast free every AM of fresh fruits, cereals, and danishes and beverages, ate outside on the patio, I will check for you. Lucy
YaYa, I remember that in last Sunday's travel segment of our newspaper, several hotels in the French Quarter had some great specials going on during the fall and winter. The last time we were there, we stayed at Bourbon Orleans, right in the thick of things. It wasn't on special at the time. :-( Do you have AAA? If so, I think they offer a travel service that can help you find good specials.
We are going to NO in January. We have booked a bed and breakfast on the quiet end of Bourbon Street called La Fitte Guest House.

Absolutely loved our stay at the cabin. The accommodations were perfect for my family of six. The kitchen had everything we needed to make our meals, the table in the kitchen fit us all perfect and was great for playing games around. The atmosphere of the cabin with all the colors, the fireplace, comfy couches, recliners and the "icing on the cupcake" the private spa on the deck. We were all so happy that we had such a nice place to stay for our Christmas vacation.
Loved the cabin feel. The wood stove was amazing. The garage is plum full of wood and the fire heats the place up real quick! Our kids loved the upstairs room and ping pong table, husband loved the TV, Mom loved the hot tub! Can't wait to come back.
We had a wonderful time in Sunriver staying at this home. It is very comfortable, clean and in a great location. We loved the hot tub and how it is nestled in the pine trees. The kids enjoyed riding their bikes to the Water park and Fort Rock. The dog loved that she got to come on vacation with us. We will defiantly be coming back again this winter!
This house was very comfortable for four adults. We had two grandchildren one night and they were settled upstairs. Probably would not recommend the third bedroom for an adult couple. Other members of our family rented other houses, but ours was the one with the cabin feel. All of the wood cupboards, furniture, fun colors, etc, really gave you the "cabin in the woods" feel. There was one small issue that we called to have looked at and someone was sent within 10 minutes. Can't beat that for service. We loved Sunriver in our first visit, but not our last.
Overall we had a great time here and would stay here again. Just make sure if you are planning on doing any cooking that you bring everything you need. Very limited on pots, pans, etc. if you plan on cooking for more than a few people.
We had an amazing time and loved the mountain cabin feel with modern amenities. We enjoyed the outdoor hot tub, cozy living room with fireplace, outdoor BBQ, and clean modern kitchen. We plan on going back.

Obama challenges Congress to help create jobs
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama is challenging Congress to help him create jobs and rebuild the nation's infrastructure.
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama points to the launch of two new high-tech manufacturing hubs and a competition to rebuild the nation's roads, bridges, mass transit, ports and railroads. Obama says Congress can help in both areas.
He says a bill now before Congress would create a network of high-tech manufacturing hubs all across the country. And he says he'll send Congress a budget next week that would rebuild transportation systems and support millions of jobs.
In the Republican address, Rep. Ann Wagner of Missouri is asking the president to explain government reports that up to 11 million workers will pay higher insurance premiums because of the new health care law.

(2427 quotes found)
"The earth is always represented as an emblem of patience; the bolt of Indra, if taken in its technical sense, as the bolt of a gate, might likewise suggest the idea of firmness; while the lake is a constant representative of serenity and purity."
"Beware of the great attractors, who can manifest whatever their hearts desire. Fear them, for they are God's in their own small universe, and like God's, can destroy your entire world; with a single thought."
"And if your Lord had pleased, surely all those who are in the earth would have believed, all of them; will you then force men till they become believers? / And it is not for a soul to believe except by Allah's permission; and He casts uncleanness on those who will not understand."
"Humans will ingest any and everything to try and enhance what the majority of them claim their God has already made perfect. Humans, when all things are considered, are megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, and the vilest creatures on earth as far as I'm concerned."
"There is nothing in there that I can say is going to be earth-shattering or reveals something that people don't already know. But I think the bits and pieces of my life during that period are well represented."
"The blues and browns gone gray. And yellow, a terrible amber. Clouds bellies got dark and full. They were no more feathery. Oh, they are electric, fully-loaded!"
"Now, surely, whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth is Allah's; and they do not (really) follow any associates, who call on others besides Allah; they do not follow (anything) but conjectures, and they only lie."
"Compassion; a thought that people should never struggle to understand and an act that people should always understand is worth struggle."

Quilts in movies
I'm watching movies and noticing every bedroom scene. There always seems to be a pieced quilt on the bed.
The Birdcage--in the senator's bedroom as he climbs in the window--look at the bed. It shows a star block pattern with a big daisy appliqued in the middle.
You've got Mail-- When Meg Ryan is sick and Tom Hanks drops by, he covers her up with a pieced quilt, but I didn't catch the pattern and don't own the DVD.
There are more, but I've just decided to keep a mental list--I know there's another one I've forgotten. Do you notice this same thing? Can you recall any specific movies?
I think I recall seeing one in Stepmom with Julia Roberts and Susan Sarandon. I believe the Sarandon character was making quilts for her children to have after she was gone.
And I know there was one in a movie where the mom was dying and she was preparing her friend to raise her daughters after she was gone - but I can't remember the name of it or who the actresses were.
Quilts are used in movies to send a message and create a certain feeling of home and belonging. It's no accident they are there.
Watch any Disney movie with a child in a bed and I can almost promise you there will be a quilt on the bed or wrapped around the child including those Disney's animated features!
The (bad) movie I watched last night "The Christmas Shoes" the mother had a quilt hanging on the wall in her hallway. It looked to be a variation of a bargello quilt. I have actually noticed quite a few quilts in TV shows and movies. At my dentist's office, she has a large quilt hanging in the waiting room.
This one comes to mind: National Velvet, the original one with Liz Taylor and Mickey Rooney. When the horse "Pie" gets sick, they cover him with a handmade quilt. Then, when the horse gets better and stands up, they toss this beautiful quilt into the corner of the stall!
In "Gone with the Wind", when all the poorer citizens were evacuating Atlanta, they had all their belongings wrapped up in quilts and slung across their backs. Elaine in "Seinfeld" had a quilt behind her bed on the wall. Also on "Seinfeld" Kramer had a quilt that he conned Jerry into taking to the cleaners for him. Jerry made the cleaners mad and Kramer was freaking out because he couldn't get his quilt back. I think there was one in the movie "The Yearling" also.
I watch a lot of hgtv and love seeing homes where every room has a quilt. Just last night on property virgins one of the homes had quilts on the beds and then they went into what must be the sewing room and you saw the owners sewing table with a quilt in progress!!
I've been watching the DVDs of the HBO series "True Blood." I know; I know; there's no accounting for taste! LOL The series is based on Charlaine Harris' "Southern Vampire/Sookie Stackhouse" mystery books.
The books are great! The HBO televised versions of them are, well, down to HBO standards! But they're also like a train wreck. Having read all the books, once I started watching the series I just have to continue. LOL
But I digress.
In the first season of the series, there are a number of beautiful quilts in the bedrooms and living room of Sookie's house. In a couple scenes she's wrapped up in a quilt on the front porch. They are all old fashioned patterns, probably meant to look like they were made by Sookie's grandmother.
AHA! Another one--- in 50 First Dates (set in Hawaii) in Drew Barrymore's bedroom, Adam Sandler holds up a quilt to protect himself from her throwing things. HEE HEE! It's a classic echo quilted Hawaiian quilt.
Isn't that nice???? I got a foolishly large kick out it!
The quilt in You've got mail is made of a Spinning Wheel patern, if I'm not mistaken.I do love that one, but also in the tv-series (special victem unit) with Olivia they show lots of quilts, in the interviewroom for children.
Here is a link that might be useful: de avonturen van Zipje ne Zopje
You 've missed one of the prettiest. I can't think of the name of the movie but Harrison Ford is a policeman that stays with an Amish family. The little boy saw a murder. Anyway there is a beautiful appliqued wedding quilt. It's one of my favorites, and everytime I think of the movie I picture the quilt.
I've been searching for a picture of the quilt from Rodanthe... but I can't find one. Guess I'll have to watch the movie again. I did find a link to the guy who made the driftwood boxes used in the movie, but not the quilt. That doesn't seem fair.
And speaking of 'not fair', didn't you hate the way Winona Ryder drags that beautiful, hand-sewn quilt through the dirt towards the end of How to Make an American Quilt? I loved the movie but that scene always bothers me.
Last night I watched a great old movie from 1943, Random Harvest, with Greer Garson and Ronald Colman. In a scene where she is recovering (for days, at home) from giving birth, there is a lovely quilt on the bed: some large pieced blocks with a somewhat scalloped edge on the quilt. I imagined it blue......the movie was in black and white.

Canada thistle
I'm a part time Northern Colorado resident fighting an ongoing battle with Canada thistle and musk thistle. Based on my usual schedule of visits, I've settled on a regimen of mechanical control (cutting down everything I can in the summertime) and chemical control (spraying in the fall).
For some number of years, I've been using Curtail with limited success. My big jug of concentrate is now empty, so I've revisited online recommendations before buying more.
It seems like the top rated stuff available to consumers is now Milestone.
Does anyone on this list have experience with Milestone? Alternate recommendations? Sources in Northern Colorado (Front Range communities from, say, Denver to the Wyoming border)?
Thanks in advance,
Don't need Roundup - just use a generic. Glystar is very cheap, but you will need to add a good surfactant for thistle. If it's in rangeland, or you want something else specific for broadleaf, go for turflon ester or anything with triclopyr. Actually for rangeland etc, the label on Remedy Ultra should allow you to use it, and it is considerably cheaper and almost exactly the same. Spray it when temperatures are below 70 and you will toast the thistle. It may never come back if you get good coverage. Triclopyr is that good on thistle! Don't skimp on the surfactant though.
I know this is almost a year later - but I have just been dealing with this myself, and have done some research which I hope I will explain correctly.
The plant tends to spread by root system, but also seed if it lands in a moist environment that has recently been disturbed (road building, cultivation). If it is allowed to reach the second year, the root system can become very extensive.
It turns out that treatment times are very important in controlling Canadian Thistle. The best time to cut it down is late spring when the flowers are just created. This is because the energy stored in the root system has been somewhat depleted. You can also mow or chop down repeatedly through the growing season. The best time to use herbicide (and I frequently saw Roundup/glyphosate recommended) is during an active growth period (usually when there is a lot of moisture) so that the herbicide will be transmitted down to the roots (while the plant is photosynthesizing and sending the energy down to that root system).
The real bummer is that the seeds can germinate up to 20 years after they have been released. But Canadian Thistle is not very competitive with a lot of plants, so when you disturb soil, you want to get something else in there ASAP and stay on top of any thistle that germinates. In the first year, the thistle is just a rosette, the second year it reproduces by sending up a stalk and flowers/seeds and creating the extensive root system. So it is best to get to it when it is that low-growing rosette (almost like a dandelion).
If you harvest by pulling up (or maybe even cutting down) during a period of active growth, this can actually stimulate the roots to produce many more plants! So you want to be careful to do this at the right time, and watch for recurrence.
Hope this is helpful for someone.
I had a happy accident with this stuff. I was just to lazy, er uh, busy to get the salt block out to the pasture. Sat in front of the barn for a few weeks. When I picked it up and moved it out back, the thistle that was there, was no more. 50lbs red salt/mineral block $4.59 could probably use it this way a few hundred times.
Probably not where you want to plant anytime soon, but cannot be any worse that Roundup and all the other junk.

Meh. SQLite is in fact rather nice.
This lightweight, fast, simple database eliminates many of the headaches associated with using a full-on SQL installation, and works just as well for most of what most developers and users need.
If you're a Perl geek, like me, you will find this Perl module for seamless SQLite interface [cpan.org] to be a power tool. The next time you need to get something working by morning, and it's 2am and the person "in charge of databases" hasn't called back, you'll be thanking it.
As a user of multiple computers (work, home, friend's house), I use del.icio.us and the Firefox plug-in for it, and all my bookmarks are stored in a database that I can access from any computer. That's superior to this new "improvement".
Oh, and, it's fully cross-platform public domain, too.
I was ready to correct you on the difference between open source and public domain, but upon further reading, you're right: it's completely public domain. They'll sell you a license if you really must have one for some reason, but it's available for downloading and embedding for any use you want to put it to. Kudos, dev team. That's pretty cool of you.
Is that any worse than other browsers? Here are some instructions for seeing Opera and IE use 150 MB or more within about three hours with one tab open [mozillazine.org]. Firefox 2 consumes less than 100 MB viewing exactly the same sites as those other browsers. If you want to say the memory of a browser is enormous, oughtn't you compare its memory usage to that of other browsers instead of just throwing out numbers without anything to compare them to?I don't install Flash in Firefox, but I routinely reach 200MB use by the end of the day with an average of about four tabs open; I've only had it running today for about 2.5 hours and it's at 135MB.
A single file contains the schema and data.
Personally I wouldn't be too worried about the memory footprint, but I guess this means that they're dropping the text based configuration files in favour of a binary format? - If that's the case, I sincerely hope they'll reconsider, from The Art of Unix Programming [faqs.org]:
When you feel the urge to design a complex binary file format, or a complex binary application protocol, it is generally wise to lie down until the feeling passes.
I had hoped that the mess that is the Windows Registry had taught people to avoid odd binary formats if at all possible...
I don't care to choose between making new bookmarks and keeping a large number of tabs open - what is this, the 90s?You DO know about bookmarks, right ?

Survey: Mass. employers remain wary on economy - 0 Comments
BOSTON — A monthly survey of Massachusetts employers shows a slight uptick in confidence but not enough to stimulate job creation or bring down the state's unemployment rate.
That's according to Associated Industries of Massachusetts, which said Tuesday that its business confidence index rose nearly three points in September and now stands at 51.5. A reading above 50 indicates that employers are slightly more optimistic than pessimistic about the economy.

What is the best practice for loading an external .js file into an .html file? (no inline calls e.g.,
<body onload="...)
I have a basic HTML page where I'd like to load an external .js file. When I have the code in a script tag at the bottom of my HTML page everything works as it should.
However if I cut the js code and paste it into an external .js file and call the file from either the bottom of the
<head> tag or place the call to the script just above the closing
</body> tag the script doesn't run.
Unsuccessful, but I've also tried wrapping the code in the external .js file in:
function init() {
// Put your code here
window.onload = init;

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/08/13 -- Continuing its aggressive push to the general availability of the industry's only elastically scalable Cloud Data Management System (CDMS), NuoDB, Inc. today announced the addition of four executives to its management team: Greg Fegan, vice president of business development; Steve Green, vice president of sales; Ashish Mohindroo, vice president of marketing; and John Wagner, chief financial officer. The new executives join Founder and CEO Barry Morris, and Vice President of Engineering Adam Abrevaya. Jim Starkey, NuoDB founder and chief technology officer, is assuming an ongoing advisory role.
"With a week to go before our CDMS is generally available, we are witnessing tremendous interest from the market for us to demonstrate NuoDB truly does what we say it does -- scales effortlessly in the cloud without compromising any of the features of relational databases," said Morris. "Each of our new executives is a seasoned, industry veteran with experience capitalizing on the kind of momentum that is building for NuoDB, and together they are an excellent complement to the top-notch VCs who have helped us get to this point."
Fegan is an accomplished technology veteran with 25 years of operational, profit and loss experience in business development and sales leadership roles for high-growth software companies. He has successfully designed and executed systematic growth models for start-ups as well as global industry leaders.
For the last six years, Fegan served as an advisor to Fortune 500 executives, boards of publicly- and privately-held companies and venture-backed senior management teams. Prior to that, Fegan held the role of vice president of North American sales and operations for GoldenGate Software, Inc., where he built the company's first commercial sales team. He's also held senior management positions at Inktomi, Netscape, Sybase and Oracle.
Green has been a passionate advocate for enabling customer success throughout his 22-year career in technology. He spent the past seven years in sales leadership at Brightcove, a cloud content services provider, where he created the initial demand generation driven sales model, scaled the field sales organization and helped grow the company through their initial public offering in early 2012 and its first quarters as a public company.
Prior to Brightcove, Green was with DataPower (since acquired by IBM), where he scaled the inbound sales team and process, and brought on key customers. Green has also held a variety of sales roles with Ping Identity, Imprivata and Allaire Corporation (acquired by Macromedia, now Adobe).
Mohindroo is a Marketing Executive with 17+ years of experience in building successful organizations and growing niche offerings into multi-million dollar businesses. His experience spans from driving success at innovative startups to large Enterprises that include Oracle, Symantec and Salesforce.com. He joined NuoDB after being a consultant/advisor to the Salesforce Platform Marketing team and helped drive their Go-To-Market Strategy for the Cloud Application Platform.
Prior to Salesforce, he was the global head for Product Marketing & Strategy for Symantec's Enterprise Security and Mobile Business.
Wagner has nearly 20 years of experience in financial management for various technology companies, focused on facilitating the growth of emerging companies. He most recently served as vice president of finance for Carbonite, where he played a key role in the cloud backup provider's 2011 initial public offering and subsequent transition to a public company.
Prior to Carbonite, Wagner served as controller of Constant Contact, and led its financial operations and accounting team during the company's dramatic revenue growth from $20 to $220 million and its 2007 initial public offering. Wagner also served as chief financial officer at Salesnet through its sale to RightNow Technologies and held finance and accounting roles at Mirror Image Internet and Arthur Andersen.

Small-fry, please do not put words into my mouth. This is what I said: Communism gave rises to tyranny. I agree with you, communism ideology to me is an extreme form of socialism. However, because Marxist advocate the use of violence to overthrow the state to implement communism, which controls all state resources, all the succeeded implementations resulted in tyranny. It is like a strong medicine that has side-effects that nobody has foreseen.In fact, I believe the communist parties in the west has pretty much abandoned that violent advocacy so that they can be accepted as members of the political system. Please let me know if any of them still advocates the use of violence.
P.S. Dubious claims like worshiping can cure illness is not supported by the main branches of the church.
P_Summers,Which history book you refer to that claims "Hakka people was the main force of Taiping"? I googled it before I made that comment, now please back up your claim. To this day Hakka people does not constitute a big population even in GuangDong and Fujian.Are you assuming I am from China? Of course I know FaLunGong, my colleague and relatives are practitioners in the US. Yes, Christian and Islam both have dubious claims to lure people to convert, does that make FaLunGong's dubious claims valid? If you believe you don't need to go to the doctors when you are ill and practice Tai Chi will solve the problem, be my guest, there are tons of "Gong" preaching similar thing.
small fry,Do you call the current CCP a true communist party as defined by communist ideology and vision?
Skywalker-rick termed communism evil proved that he saw only one side of the coin. The 3rd world countries' emancipation from western were mostly attributed to the communism's impact on world politics during post war II 1950s as western found difficulty to continue their colonizing as peoples uprising incessant with the helps from communists who compelling the west giving a lot of aids to 3rd world for development. True, many communism theories contradicting and against human value and so forth but one must admire their ideal cause of equality of "from each according to his ability and to each according to his wishes" what a noble idea of treating everyone equal irrespective he or she an engineer or scavenger. The Soviet early experiment proved this noble idea impossible workable because Karl Marx did not taking human's ugly characters of selfishness and laziness into consideration. The Soviet economy almost collapse thus forcing the abandon of this noble idea which was dead thereof. Another evidence was Mao Tze-Tung's "Great Leap Forward" failure that killed millions in late l950s and early l960s. The communism's many noble ideas are good for saints and noble peoples but to ordinary common peoples were just "A Bridge Too Far". Skywalker-rick also talking about Hakka, I have this to add; Being a Hakka I am proud of my ancestors' bravery of migrating from war torn north to the south seeking peace and livelihood and unknowingly spreading the middle kingdom's civilisation to the south of Yantze river. Taiping revolution's (太平天国) Hung Xiao Zhuan (洪秀全) and modern China founding father Sun Yat-Sin (孙中山) as well as CCp's Deng Xiao Ping (邓小平) were all Hakka. The most shinning example was Song Dynasty's prime minister, Wen Tian Siang (文天祥) who rather be beheaded by the invader Mongolian than surrendered and to serve as Yuan Dynasty's (元朝) prime minister.
Zhenghe came back with a straitened circumstance caused by just giving gifts to neighbour countres and the goal of his voyage was to show off how wealthy and strong China was, to enlarge its political influence. Also, another purpose is said to find the predecessor of the current emperor at that time.Powerful as China was, it didn't let the Capitalism sprout freely whereas it wasn't the case in Europe.That's why no colonization happened here.
Y_Liu,To expect our great great great grandfathers to have contemporary thoughts is really expecting too much from history, but to expect our contemporaries to have contemporary thoughts is indeed not asking too much….Confucius teachings are actually moral rules with particular emphasis on accepting one's position in life, accepting social hierarchy and being obedient to people with authority (like one's parents, and above all, one's emperor). According to Confucius, only by follow his rules, a country would be in harmony, and war would end. Confucius was born in one of the most turbulent times of China when war-lords (claimed to be descendents from previous royal bloods) fought among themselves. Confucius failed to impress any war-lord (they probably shared the same belief as Mao after them that "Power comes from good weapons"). A failed politician, Confucius switched career, and later became a success teacher (nowadays we call professor/dean/principal/guru) and THE most-honorable-teacher-of-all-times in Chinese culture.Development in later Dynasties, is however, more interesting. Emperors of later Dynasties found out that the teachings of Confucius, in particular his teaching on acceptance of social hierarchy and obedience to people with authority (actually complete with elaborate rituals as to how to bow and pay respect to the emperor etc.) highly beneficial to the ruling Emperor and his family. His teaching became honored-teachings of most Dynasties thereafter.How did modern Chinese view Confucius teachings? The most important cultural movement in modern Chinese history is the New Culture Movement in 1911, at the time of the famous May 4 Movement. This was the time when Chinese young people wanted to break away from constraining old cultural teachings, not surprisingly, targeting at the "outdated" Confucius teachings. Democracy and Science were the main thrust for all. On the left, there was Marxism being added (that later bred the Chinese Communist Party). The milder ones shunned Marxism, and advocate pragmatism. Both left and milder ones wanted to sweep away Confucius influence that was considered feudal and holding Chinese back from development and entering the modern world.With this background, it indeed comes as a little surprise to see the current CCP advocating Confucius teaching. Perhaps it is not at all a surprise. Hadn't all previous Emperors upheld and propagated the teachings of Confucius? They, including the current CCP, all have a common objective: to keep their absolute rule, and seek peaceful/harmony in their ruling process. Ooops, I nearly forget one more common point: they all love their people (of course they have to be on top of their people, no question about that!), they want their people to prosper, and surely enough they want to unite their people to fight against outside enemies whoever they are, imaginary or real. We do can learn from history.
oatmoleIn terms of productivity,a kind reminder for you. Even before the time the Spanish or Portuguese sailed for golds, China was the state that had the highest productivity in this world. Interestingly, it also sent out a fleet venturing to the world, but not for gold and enslaving other races, instead, they sailed for peacefully spreading Chinese glory and expanding trade routes. You may find everything about this fleet led by Zhenghe in 16 century on internet. Isn't it a difference between the Confucian east and Christian west on how to treat external world when they are a power?
I'm writing this because I am sooo angry that Christianity was called an evil along with communism. Granted, Christianity does not have the best track record but please tell me what has a perfect track record in history. Christian's like any other religious or non religious people are just that, people that make mistakes.
The similarities between communism and Christianity seem pretty similar but there is at least one fundamental difference. Communist leaders are humans soley seeking power for their own good (eventually that's what happens anyway), where as Christianty's ultimate leader (God, revealed to me and you in the life of Jesus Christ) said that He "did not come to be served but to serve" Mathew 20:28 (The Bible).
Please, for those who wrote and agree that Christianity is evil- please read the Bible to see who Jesus is and what His objectives on earth were. Then tell me if you think that Christianity is evil.
"For Chinese, this has to be watched with suspicious eye about their motives? "Truly understandable. One caveat: bad deeds often come from good motive, e.g. Chairman Mao and his Cultural Revolution.Critical thinking is very important and so is Socrates' definition of wisdom: "knowing that we know so little".The best strategy is to have an open mind and learn from all sources irrespective of others' possible "selfish motives". Actually it is not that mysterious and difficult to comprehend. In the market of goods and services, we have no objection to seeing/hearing advertisements whose objective is surely for the selfish motive of trying us sell us something (oftentimes, we don't even need them in the first place!). It is therefore not so horrible with the market of ideas. Again one caveat: There must be a free market for ideas (e.g. if only McDonald's advertisement is allowed to be run, everybody will likely to be "brainwashed" into buying McDonald).
"忍令上国衣冠沦为夷狄, 相率中原豪杰还我河山!" literally meaning "tolerating not our civilised motherland devastating by the barbarian, come on fellow gallant heroes let's fight and reclaim our wonderful country1". what an epic poetry penned by Yi Wang Sek Dat Kai (翼王石达开) the most brilliant general of Taiping revolution (太平天国) during Qing Dynasty; During that era Han weeping for it and Manchurian vexing when saw and heard same. Tien Wang Hung Xiao Zhuan's (天王洪 秀全) Taiping Revolution should have had been successful if he contrived between the almost defeated Qing Dynasty (asking peace truce zoning south of Yantze River for Hung to rule) and vested interests of western powers. Had he taken such offering and rebuilt Han's strength and who knows, history may be in his favour? Han Chinese suffered another 61 years till Sun Yat-Sin toppled Qing Dynasty. Western powers did not make full use of their influences before communists came to power in 1949 and let China fought singularly with the Japanese until the bombing of Pearl Harbour. And now China opening up they fear everything from China and so they now do all the best to influence it from within and the best way was to convert Chinese if possible all to christianity. For Chinese, this has to be watched with suspicious eye about their motives?
"FaLunGong is just another cult with dubious claims, its rise and existence is very much a resemblance of Taiping."This is a cursory comment with "dubious substance". Firstly you have to check their claims (FLG has its official website, unfortunately it is blocked in China, with CCP having a free playing field to blacken the religion). Actually if you compare religious (non-religious people might call mythical) claims between FLG, Islam and Christianity, you would be surprised to find that the I and the C actually got more mysterious and "dubious" (for the uninitiated) claims!FLG is truly a China-home-grown religion. Despite suppression by CCP, there are many Chinese (and some non-Chinese) followers around the world still practicing openly at parks. A form of distinctively Chinese meditative exercise (developed from distinctively Chinese internal martial arts/meditative forms) forms the core of the religion. If you believe Tai-Chi and meditation will be good for your health, and make you mentally relax and feel happier (and hence better prepared to "treat thy neighbour as thyself"), you should trust FLG does the same trick. FLG is just that plus some moral principles and, some religious philosophy (thus making it a religion - actually a kind of Buddhism with Taoist influence).As we know, FLG does have a lot of followers (including many CCP members at many levels) in mainland China before the crackdown. It is true that many gave up the practice after the crackdown ("I don't want to agitate the big boss!" is indeed an understandable sentiment for pragmatic Chinese), but it would be naive to think that so many Chinese would "stupidly" follow a practice for such a long time if it doesn't WORK! Chinese are pragmatic people, you know.....By the way, the Hakka people was (and whole villages of them) indeed the leading force behind the uprising, please check your history books.
Y Liu, I think your conclusion that Christians are more aggressive based on the world wars they started and colonies they settled is somewhat superficial.The saying "they invaded new worlds" is not accurate in my opinion. They discovered the new world not out of their nature but from the result of productivity. When a country is still striving to avoid famine or other interior issue, it will of course incapable of such bahaviours. Don't forget emperors in many dynasties enslaved many neighbouring countries and waging wars.And China was traditionally an agriculral country so it didn't need to invade others to get more resources.Business was suppressed and despised at that time. We have to admit greed is part of human nature no matter what religion you believe in. And many Christians I know are fairly friendly and obliging. It makes no sense to say the religion makes people start wars. Asian countries are just too busy dealing with domestic turmoil to start invasion instead of their nature disenabling the ability.
Note: the LDP was formed after WWII, but its members were from pre-war dominating parties.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics_of_Japan
Garfield,Again, your views about Chinese history is too simplistic and one sided. Religion itself can be tyranny, so is a lot if "'ism"s, communism gives rise to tyranny, the idea of communism itself is not tyranny. Fascism, racism, Nazism are also tyrannies.I hate Mao and CCP but your claim that he or CCP killed 20 million is ridiculous, I know certain Chinese and foreigners like to make outrageous claims. The deaths are mostly famine due to their failed policies. Would you say Emperor Hirahito and the LDP killed all the Japanese war deaths and all the other WWII deaths in the Asia stage? Yes, Japanese, Manchus, Mongols killed millions of Chinese, they are facts. Chinese killed Chinese, they are facts. If Chinese kills Chinese, you have Chinese to blame, but if others kill Chinese, you blame Chinese. What kind of person are you? And you are Christian?Tell me, which country forgives foreign invaders while prosecuting civil war enemies, I am afraid it is your hated CCP. In America, civil war enemies are forgiven the day they surrendered, while they chased down EVERY foreign enemy that has been involved in attacking America, AFTER they surrendered.I am sorry I don't think this conversation needs to go further, or I may want to insult your religion, as you are insulting others' IQ.
Hakka means visitors, they migrates from the north and are true Hans that mixed with local minorities, as compare to the population south of the Yue mountains who are called the Bai Yue (hundred Yue) people. They are also different from the other Han settlers because they often come when there is turmoil and the empire is weak, therefore they are left for themselves to protect. Hakka does not exist in the north at all because they are by definition people who fled from the north.Hong is a Hakka, that is about it, none of his immediate followers are, because only after he went to Guangxi that he succeeded in gaining supports, he would have failed if he started his revolt in Guangdong. Guangxi is not considered Cantonese, nor is it a Hakka region, but Zhuang region. However, I don't know of any studies that concluded the majority of the Taiping rebellion was Zhuang and Hakka, don't forget the majority of the two originated provinces are still Han. Cantonese is mixture of Han and Bai Yue, but mostly of Han descent and "Hanized".
FaLunGong is just another cult with dubious claims, its rise and existence is very much a resemblance of Taiping. Don't forget other cults like ZhongGong (whose cult leaders are suing each other for the fortune amassed by the leader after his death), etc. Taiping has both positive and negative impacts, though today's scholar leans more to the negative side (the CCP has always regarded it as a revolution, you cannot get any more positive about that). politicsbrat,Sun Yet Sen was a Christian only because he studied in Christian school, later he denounced Christianity, please see his biography and Soong's biography by searching his name in wikipedia.
.... well, the fact is that Taiping is also a religious organization, that will only it a religion inspired action for a good cause.
westernexpat,1. The hairstyle is of course a very important symbolic gesture of defiance (killable!) to Qing foreign rule. Incidentally Dr. Sun also made this act his most important gesture of defiance for his revolutionary party. There was a popular Qing saying towards Han, "If you want to keep you head, you don't keep your hair; and if you want to keep you hair, you won't keep your head". And if you have studied Qing history more in-depth (I mean rather than just scanning over Wiki), you will find out more incidents on Qing Emperor's heavy-handed suppressions towards any suspected slightest violation of the hair-rule (many innocent Han killed), as well as Han's strong feeling of humiliation towards the hair-rule.2. There are actually many sub-groups within Han-Chinese, if you consider Hakka just a minority (i.e. not representative), then Dr. Sun's revolution is a Cantonese minority revolution. All revolution starts with a small group, but only the successful one later becomes a majority action.3. However, I do believe there were turmoils in Chinese history and indeed world history (but not Taiping I would say) caused by religion (as there were many more caused by unscrupulous rulers, businessmen and academics). But these cannot be valid excuse for the Chinese Government or any Government to suppress religious activities, like suppression of Falung Gong done by CCP.
Personally I believe this survey is over optimism. Old Chinese who believe Christian believe it like Falun Kong. Young people believe it just for fashion. They just fit Jesus into their heart as replacement of Buddha or Jade Emperor ...

The pair has grand plans to kick it with kin on Friday, when it will celebrate turning 21 with a special performance at the Gramophone. "It's going to be a true family affair," says QB, who is two minutes younger than his brother, Rep. "We're going to have the whole nine, a big birthday cake and the whole family — you know, my momma's gonna be there and the old dude, too. Everybody except the kids, 'cause it's 21 and over." Rockwell Knuckles, Gotta Be Karim, Potzee and Youvee are also scheduled to appear.

Check out all micro-needling reviews.
My skin is addicted to micro-needling! Thank you Daga, for another excellent treatment. Already noticing the difference and seconds away from booking my next appointment.
I booked through the app an hour and had to pay un advance and received a call the day after from the venue to change the booking. I had to wait more than 20 min to be served, without any kind of explanation for the delay or apologise. The venue is not easy to fin if you haven't been before to chelsea health and spa before. I had dermarolling face done, quiet painful. Can't tell about the results by now as I'm supposed to start seeing changed after one week.
I had a Micro-needling with mesotherapy and have awarded it 4 stars.
Nice, friendly staff who fully explained the steps of the treatment as she went along. I was running late and they very kindly moved my appointment slot. Will definitely be returning for another treatment.
Daga couldn't have been more welcoming, and carried out this treatment incredibly gently. As well as the micro-needling (which doesn't hurt- just a slight scratchy feeling), the price includes a mandelic acid peel, an algae mask, a deep cleanse and massage. My skin was only very slightly red for about an hour after the treatment, and since then I have definitely noticed an improvement (perhaps due to the peel?) I'm already planning my next visit!
Very knowledgeable and supportive clinician. just for the micro-needling, I would advice anyone to have some pain killer beforehand and and possibly more numbing cream beforehand too, as I was advised by Adella.
I even walked out with a cute treat:) Thank you Adella. Will look forward to be back in a month or so :)
Had Gel Nails done by Galina she was very professional, efficient and personable. The treatment room was quiet and clean. All tools used were sterile and Galina demonstrated in depth knowledge about the procedure as well as the other treatments she provides. She paid alot of attention to getting my manicure right and I am very happy overall with the outcome. Through our chat I was also given enough confidence in Galina's skill and ability to have my eyebrows waxed which came out absolutely perfect. Would not hesitate to recommend and will definitely rebook for nails or facials at this salon.
I had a Full Face Dermaroller 1hr 15mins and have awarded it 5 stars.
I did not have the Micro-Needing, but a Deep-Cleansing instead because I felt that my skin needed a good clean first,
before going for the Micro-Needing. I was very happy with my treatment by Daga, the beautician and will definitely go back for more treatment.
