JIM LEHRER: Now to a Newsmaker interview with the Senate Majority Leader, Trent Lott, Republican of Mississippi.
JIM LEHRER: Senator Lott, welcome.
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Jim, it's good to be back with you again.
JIM LEHRER: Senator, is the struggle over the Ashcroft nomination over?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: It's not quite over. There will be a discussion tonight about his nomination right up until about 9:00 — all day on Wednesday — perhaps into the night, but I'm hoping that by Thursday we can find a way to bring this debate to a conclusion, and have a vote on John Ashcroft. He will be confirmed. And I'm hoping it will be a by a substantial number with every Republican and a number of Democrats. I think he should be confirmed. He's a good man; he's a close personal friend. I know him very well. He's qualified by education, by experience and by the commitment he has made to enforce the laws of this land. And I predict he will make a fine Attorney General and he will be surrounded by good men and women that will help make sure that the Justice Department is run properly and that the laws are truly enforced, and, by the way, I don't think there has been a very good job done in enforcing existing laws in the previous Justice Department.
JIM LEHRER: Have you been informed authoritatively by the Democrats that they will not filibuster this when it goes to the floor?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: They have not said completely flat out that there will not be a filibuster. Tom Daschle, the Democratic leader, has indicated that he does not support that maneuver. Pat Leahy, the chairman of the Committee, also indicated that he would not participate in a filibuster and I think even Senator Kennedy – who indicated that might do that — has said that he probably would not go forward with it partially because he was requested by the Senator from Missouri, Senator Jean Carnahan, not to do that, allow each Senator to cast his or her vote based on their own conscience and not make it a protracted debate or filibuster. So it looks like there probably won't be a filibuster. The Senator is entitled to have the time they need make a statement. We'll try and accommodate that every way we can.
But this has taken a good bit of time. They had a week of hearings in Judiciary; when it came time to vote a week ago, a week delay was asked for and agreed to because the rules provide for that. Now we'll have several hours of debate over a three-day period and then I think it's time cast a vote. Let me just say, Jim, that in the history of this country only nine times have we had a President's cabinet nominee defeated — only once since 1959. That was John Tower in 1989, which was a tragic thing, too. I believe a President is entitled to his selection. John Ashcroft does have a voting record and he is a conservative; he feels very strongly about his religious faith but I believe that the President, President Bush has a right to make his choice for Attorney General and that John Ashcroft is qualified and should be confirmed.
JIM LEHRER: Much has been made Senator, and in fact you repeated it yourself, Senator Ashcroft has said too that he will enforce laws that he strongly — with which he strongly disagrees. Now that means as a conservative and you are also a conservative…
SEN. TRENT LOTT: I am.
JIM LEHRER: He is going to strongly enforce liberal, quote, liberal laws. Do you want him to do that?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Yes. I mean….
JIM LEHRER: Why you would want him to do that?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Well, first of all, you know, there's a difference between being a legislator – you know — being a private citizen and being the Attorney General, the top legal officer of the country. And he will have to think in that way. Every day in our lives, Jim, you and I comply with laws that we don't necessarily agree with or may vigorously disagree with, but it is the law. This is a government of laws and not men. And that's what makes America what it is today. It's about a democracy and a republic. And so I'm sure if it ever came to point where John's conscience just was in such conflict with the law, that he would be big enough to step aside and say, I can't do this. But I believe he will. And I predict right now I as a friend that knows him quite well — that knows his family and has been in his home and he's been in my home, he will be an excellent Attorney General when all is said and done.
JIM LEHRER: And he will not work to undermine laws on abortion and guns with which he disagrees?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: He is working at the pleasure of the President, will support the President's efforts. There may be efforts to change the law but I think he will good and faithfully enforce the laws as they exist until they're changed. He still may feel that we can improve the laws in a variety of places and the Attorney General will be a witness for the Judiciary Committee I'm sure on future efforts to change various laws. But this is a been a real effort by, you know, the bitter left to try to smear John Ashcroft — question his religious commitments in a way that I haven't seen since John Tower was really, you know, I think treated very shabbily by the Senate. And it's really a shot at John Ashcroft but it's a snooker shot because what they're aiming for is to try to say to President Bush don't send us a conservative nominee to the Supreme Court, which he will do. But he may not – you know, hopefully he'll have one that will be so qualified by education and experience and knowledge that he or she will be confirmed.
JIM LEHRER: I said Senator McCain; I meant Senator Ashcroft a moment ago. One final question on this: if the roles were reversed — let's say this was a strong liberal Democrat who was becoming the Attorney General and there were some strong conservative laws on the books, would you not be questioning whether or not this strong liberal would enforce your laws?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: I could give you a really good response to that, Jim. Eight years ago Bob Dole put me in the position as the Republican point man to check in to President Clinton's nominees for the cabinet. Now why I got that role I was never quite sure, because it was kind of a thankless job. But I was involved in that process and we confirmed three of President Clinton's nominees the first day — all the rest of them the second day and eventually about I don't know a week or two later we confirmed Janet Reno 98-0. There were a couple of people in that cabinet we had some concerns about. You know with all due respect to the dead there were some questions about the nominee at Commerce, Mr. Brown I believe it was.
JIM LEHRER: Ron Brown.
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Ron Brown. And let me tell you there were some serious questions about Janet Reno' her qualifications were minimal and there were some other things in her background that was of concern, but we weighed those and said, she's not the best choice, but she is the President's choice. We moved it expeditiously and she was confirmed 98-0. I voted for a nominee for Attorney General that I didn't think was particularly qualified, and I had some concern about, you know, some of her background but we did the job. So there is a perfect example. Eight years ago in similar circumstances we did the job; the Democrats should do the same here.
JIM LEHRER: I mentioned Senator McCain. Let me ask you a real question about the real Senator McCain. You have agreed to give him his day in the debate and voting son on campaign finance reform; does he have the votes to prevail?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: I think there is a good chance that legislation dealing with campaigns and campaign finance reform will probably get through the Senate. I think there bill be a lot of ideas that will be offered in terms of substitutes or amendments, and I suspect some of them will pass. So what passes the Senate will not be just McCain/Feingold in its current iteration, and it has changed, by the way, year to year; he has added things and taken away things, and I don't mean that critically. He has moved around as he has learned different things – as he's gone forward. I think there will be some other amendments added to it – perhaps even a substitute added. But I think there is a good chance that something will get through the Senate this year, and depending on what it is I don't have a problem with that. I've said all along we should have campaign finance reform. I just think that the McCain proposal, which primarily just eliminates money that goes to the political parties, is not enough; it's not nearly as much as campaign finance reform as we should have.
JIM LEHRER: The bottom line is, in the past you and other Republicans have filibustered and prevented a final vote. You're not going to do that this time
SEN. TRENT LOTT: We're not going to do that this time.
JIM LEHRER: Okay. There was much talk going into about bipartisanship and cooperation; how is it holding?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Remarkably well. A lot of that is attributable to the President of the United States, George W. Bush. He has set a tone that is different; he's reaching out to everybody. He has probably met with over 100 members of Congress since he's been President, and it is bipartisan, Democrats and Republicans. It is not a glad handing sort of deal, and I'll slap you on the back and we'll see you later; we have been getting into discussions about issues that matter all the way from education to energy, to faith-based organizations and how that would work, defense of our country and he gets right into that discussion. The education meetings have been very far flung and involved Democrats that were stunned at how animated and how interested he really was in the subject.
In the Congress I must say that I've done a lot of things to try and get the atmosphere right where we can work together. I did that in the way we set up the rules for organization of the Senate and frankly that was part of my thinking with regard to getting an agreement with John McCain. I don't want us to get distracted on rules or when we might proceed on a bill — more important is the ideas — the real issues people care about. I think people are seeing that and feel good about it. I think some credit also goes to Democrats — Tom Daschle has tried to respond in kind and keep things on a level of playing field. I think he would like not to have a filibuster on John Ashcroft. I think he would like to try and have a vote on Thursday and move on to legislative issues — so far so good. It's only in the second week, but take them one week at a time.
JIM LEHRER: Do you think President Bush's influence has even had an effect on you? Republicans, you're you and your colleagues also the Republican side operating in a more bipartisan way than you had in the past?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: I think most people would say that I've done an awful lot to try and contribute to that atmosphere — the way we agreed on the rules of how the Senate would operate probably surprised some people; disappointed others. But I didn't think it was wise to be arguing over part B of rule 25 right at the beginning of a new Congress and new administration having a filibuster on that. I really think the people want to us talk about how we can make sure that every child in America is able to learn and get an education and not be left behind. They really want us to look at the tax policy and let them keep some of their tax overpayment at home. I think they would rather see us doing that instead of involved in partisan shots back and forth but a lot of credit goes to George W. Bush. The tone is different here and I think Democrats would tell you that. One man, one woman a President can clearly make a difference, but we have to only pick that mantle up and be prepared to do our part and we're doing is so far.
JIM LEHRER: Speaking of one woman, has Senator Hillary Clinton gotten off to a bad start because of the gift things all of that the $190,000 she and the President accepted when they left office?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: That's not for me to judge. She is a Senator and I'm sure she'll work hard and be an effective Senator. I want to work with her. I said in one interview in the last 24 hours that probably people would wonder why it was done the way it was and maybe she would even question it now, but that's not for me to same. She's got to deal with that. It apparently doesn't violate the rules of the Senate, the ethics rules of the Senate so we move on.
JIM LEHRER: What about on the pardons — the Marc Rich pardon, is the Senate going to move on that one as well?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: We are. I've talked to Chairman Fred Thompson of the Government Affairs Committee and Chairman Hatch of Judiciary and subcommittee chairman of that committee, Arlen Specter, about the need take a look at that matter and see exactly what did happen. Does that pardon apply? Were any rules or laws violated in the process? In our role we should look at it and ask questions. I that Arlen Specter under the direction of Orrin Hatch is probably going to take that lead role as it now stands.
JIM LEHRER: You agree it should be taken a look at?
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Absolutely. I do. I mean, everybody that I've heard — most everybody — Democrats and Republicans say it really smells bad and it looks on its face as on outrageous decision. Take away that the possibility that money may or may not be related to it — just the pardon itself. This is a guy that is a fugitive from justice. This is a guy that renounced his citizenship. This is a guy doing business with Iran at a time that we were preparing to basically fight a war with them. Is this good? No it's bad. I think we'll need at least to the really ask why. Now, the power of the President to pardon is absolute but were there extenuating circumstances here; we should find out.
JIM LEHRER: Senator Lott, thank you very much.
SEN. TRENT LOTT: Jim, thanks for the opportunity.

Moro, militant groups rally at Malaysian Embassy, call Aquino Pilate
Around 40 Moro and militant groups massed in front of the Malaysian Embassy Tuesday protesting President Aquino's actions on the Sabah standoff.
"During this Holy Week, demons come out, including Pontius Pilate—in the name of President Aquino—who keeps on blaming others and appears more like the spokesperson of the Malaysian people," said Antonio Liongson of the Moro-Christian People's Alliance.
"Our countrymen are already at the lion's mouth, Aquino is pushing them to its throat; they are already at the cliff and he is still pushing them toward the edge," he said.
Members of Katribu, Migrante and Bayan Muna, among others, expressed their disappointment at the President's handling of the Sabah issue, calling him in placards held during the hourlong protest "a traitor" to Moros.
Yusuf Ledesma of the Coalition of Supporters for the Sultan of Sulu said Aquino did not just ignore the call of Sultan Jamalul Kiram III for help. "Instead of acting as a knowledge broker, the Aquino (administration) scolded the sultan and castigated him in public," Ledesma said.
In a statement, Migrante said Aquino "virtually emboldened and gave license to Malaysia to instigate an attack against Filipinos in Sabah."
"If not for the Philippine government's passivity and inaction to protect national interest, the Sabah standoff would not have ended in bloodshed," it said.
Crackdown feared
Migrante feared Malaysia would intensify a crackdown on undocumented Filipinos in Sabah.
In a statement on Tuesday, Harry Roque, director of the Institute of International Legal Studies at the University of the Philippines, denounced Malaysia's bombing raids on Filipinos in Sabah.
"Under humanitarian rights law, the use of force in police operations should be strictly proportional to the threat posed by the Filipinos in Sabah," he said.
Former Sen. Ernesto Maceda on Tuesday said that for all its tough talk, the Aquino administration still had to make a categorical statement on whether it would pursue the Philippine claim to Sabah.
Maceda, who is running for a Senate seat under the United Nationalist Alliance, said the Philippine position had remained weak, hence the violent turn of events in Sabah.
Last month, before all the bloodshed, Maceda already urged the administration to resume its active pursuit of the claim to Sabah and to consider bringing the issue to the United Nations.
"The situation is still bad because precisely, the root cause of the bad situation is the President has not taken a strong stand to support the claim of the sultan," he said in a phone interview Tuesday.
"Malacañang has not made a categorical statement saying it is pursuing the claim of Sabah," he added.
Back-channel talks
Lawmakers, for their part, urged the Philippine government to continue seeking a diplomatic solution to the conflict in Sabah, and to hold back-channel talks with the sultanate of Sulu.
"I think the diplomatic approach should continue to be done to ask the Malaysian government and the group of the sultan of Sulu to avoid further bloodshed and explore a fair and just solution that may be acceptable to both sides," Maguindanao Rep. Simeon Datumanong said in a statement.
Agham Rep. Angelo Palmones said back-channel talks with the sultanate were necessary to convince it to withdraw its forces. Palmones said it was too late in the day to rely on diplomatic efforts alone.
Bayan Muna Rep. Teddy Casiño also said the President must also initiate talks between the Philippines, Malaysia and the sultanate.
Solomonic solution
Also on Tuesday, lawyer Oliver Lozano sent a letter to Justice Secretary Leila de Lima calling on her to form a commission that could formulate a "Solomonic solution" to the Sabah issue.
Lozano, who claimed to represent the Supreme Council of the Royal Sultanate of Sulu, said that he would in the meantime defer filing an impeachment case against President Aquino.—With reports from Jodee A. Agoncillo, Leila B. Salaverria and Christine O. Avendaño

Police are investigating a rash of 14 car break-ins in Maiden and the surrounding areas.
Maiden Police Chief Tracy Ledford said that thieves broke into 11 vehicles in the Brookwood, Oakwood and Springdale residential developments between Wednesday night and Thursday morning. He estimated the total value of items stolen at about $1,500.
"There were several GPS devices, some tools, one pistol, some change and a camera," he said of a laundry list of items stolen from vehicles in the residential areas. "Most of the vehicles were unlocked."
Ledford said that in some cases, suspects entered vehicles but didn't take anything of value. The thefts happened within a short time frame.
"We remind residents to secure items within their vehicles and don't leave anything out in plain view that is of any value," he said.

With the candidate shaking up the etch-a-sketch so often, it was hard to tell which Romney was the real Romney.
Romney attributes loss to 'gifts' Obama gave minorities
It turns out that the "47%" Romney was the genuine article.
Was there some doubt?
Was there some doubt?
How could 58 or 59 million
How could 58 or 59 million Americans vote for a jerk like Romney? So many people voted against their own interests. He is against teachers and students and blue collar workers and white collar workers and women and blacks and Latinos and whites and 99% of our population. Some people are sooooooooo eat up with the dumbass!
michael l.d.
I did not realize that people
I did not realize that people under &35k get free healthcare for life, and where can we pick up those free ObamaCondoms?
Where is my gift?
Where is my gift?
Jindal strongly rejected this
Jindal strongly rejected this statement. That's nice. But the problem is that it isn't just Mitt Romney's opinion - it's the opinion of a big segment of the Republican party base. All you have to do is talk to people or read the KNS comments to figure that out.
It won't be enough for party leaders like Jindal to change their tune. They're going to have to convince the base or they'll get eaten alive.
Of course FOX could be very helpful in this regard. :)

Controversial Israeli TV Ad Now More Controversial
More tsuris over security-fence cell-phone commercial
In Israel, even controversies spawn their own controversies. First came the controversy over a TV ad for an Israeli cell phone provider, which feature IDF soldiers kicking around a soccer ball with unseen Palestinians, over the Security Fence, and which was, depending on whom you listed to, either a callous mockery of the pain caused by the wall or a warm-hearted commentary on the common humanity of those on both side. Now, two Israeli filmmakers who saw the ad have begun legal proceedings, claiming it rips off a short film they made three years ago, which featured Israeli volleyball players tossing a ball to the other end of the fence.
Making matters even worse, say the filmmakers, Yossi Atia and Itamar Rose, is the fact that while their film was intended to protest the wall as a barrier to normal life, the cell phone spot sends a very different message. "In our movie, the ball is never returned back to the Israeli side," said Rose, "just like in reality, because the wall was intended to sever the ties between both peoples. [In the commercial, Israelis and Palestinians] play and shout happily, which is the exact opposite message."
We eagerly await the controversy over this latest controversy.

Clear Blue Sky Rally Biggest in Texas for 40 Years
Fifty-six cars entered the Clear Blue Sky Rally starting in McKinney, Texas on July 13. This sets a modern-era record for the number of entrants in a Southwest Division roadrally since the days of Rustler's Run and Big Bend Bash National rallies in the 1960's and 1970's.
The cars ran a 120-mile course through Collin and Grayson counties north of Dallas, with a five-hour time limit. Certain turns were identified by photographs, and those who picked the wrong intersection ran an off-course loop. The event counted towards the National RoadRally Championship, as a Regional GTA rally.
The winning MAZDA3 from Frisco, Texas, was joined by a Honda Accord from Houston, a 1974 Triumph TR-6 from Richardson, and a 1961 Studebaker Hawk from McKinney. The Team Award was won by three Mazdas, with teams of Mustangs, Subarus, Hondas, Volkswagens, Minis, and Camaros following in that order.
Host Texas Region will stage a shortest-distance map rally on August 17.

Customer Testimonials"10/10 for everything"
I wanted to pass on my feedback for your website. I ordered a coffee machine over the weekend and scheduled delivery for the Tuesday. The delivery driver rang me as the website said I would be. They turned up, having had a small problem with their GPS that it seems everyone has with the location I live in. The assistant and the driver were very courteous, very pleasant and easy to deal with. Applicances Online is the number 1 place I will shop in the future. I found them from Big Brown Box who I used a few years back to buy a TV and would recommend them to anyone as well. 10/10 for everything. Cheers
Paul , South Brisbane, QLD
"You responded very quickly and followed through"
Hi.I recently contacted you regarding the purchase of a coffee machine. You responded very quickly and followed through with the order just as quickly. I was really happy to get such great service and I am really happy with my coffee machine. Thanks again.
"A price that is unbeatable"
Not often am I so quick to write a glowing testimonial but felt for these guys it was totally warranted. Ordered yesterday at a price that is unbeatable (Nespresso coffee machine bought as a gift for Xmas) and it was delivered by 9am the next day. The driver even phoned to advise the time an hour before. Not just that but delivery is free!
If you have concerns about ordering online you shouldn't have with this company - the great thing is they are not just online - I phoned up and was able to speak to a person!!!

Stringing O-Port, Speedport, etc. rackets w/o a brake?

String the racket with 2 pieces.
Install mains as usual.
Using the second piece start the crosses in the middle of the racket using the same method you used with the mains. You will need a starting clamp.
Now install one cross going toward the head of the racket.
Now install one cross going toward the throat of the racket.
Keep alternating until all the crosses are completed.
No break, no boomerang, no problem.
It is my understanding Prince has no problem with this process as long as you alternate the crosses, i.e., one going up and one going down.

Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood return to host their sixth consecutive CMA Awards on Wednesday. / Robert Deutsch, USA TODAY
The CMA Awards | ABC, 8 ET/PT
Yes, I know: The music industry seems to have an awards show every week, and half of them seem to be devoted to country music exclusively. But this one, which stands with The Grammys as country music's most prestigious prize, really does mean something, at least to the people who are up for one. Hosted for the sixth straight year by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood, the show promises performances from stars such as Vince Gill, Alan Jackson, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Tim McGraw, Rascal Flatts, Blake Shelton, George Strait, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban and, of course, the hosts. If country's your style, this is your show.
Law & Order: SVU | NBC, 9 ET/PT
Broadway fans, on the other hand, might be happier over at SVU, which boasts a guest appearance by Billy Porter â?? a Tony winner this year for Kinky Boots. He plays a singing coach and TV talent-show star who's accused of sexual abuse by one of his young students. Naturally, the case is not as simple as it may first appear. Oh, and as a Broadway bonus, you also get to see Tony winner Bill Irwin and multiple nominee Raul Esparza.
Here's a flashback to the days when NBC's comedies ruled the airwaves. Caroline in the City star Lea Thompson guests as an innocence-project lawyer who clashes with a CSI team now led by Cheers star Ted Danson. You may not be feeling nostalgic, but you can bet the folks at NBC are.

What's so good?

The song was released today by Dead Oceans (label), in preparation for Sun Airway's sophomore album Soft Fall (available October 2nd).
We haven't featured the original version of this track just yet, but if I were to make a rash judgment based on this remix, their new release is going to be quite an enjoyable listen.

Off the Beaten Track is a new workshop co-locating with POPL 2012 in Philadelphia about "Underrepresented Problems for Programming Language Researchers":
Programming language researchers have the principles, tools, algorithms and abstractions to solve all kinds of problems, in all areas of computer science. However, identifying and evaluating new problems, particularly those that lie outside the typical core PL problems we all know and love, can be a significant challenge. Hence, the goal of this workshop is to identify and discuss problems that do not often show up in our top conferences, but where programming language researchers can make a substantial impact. The hope is that by holding such a forum and associating it directly with a top conference like POPL, we can slowly start to increase the diversity of problems that are studied by PL researchers and that by doing so we will increase the impact that our community has on the world.

MONTVALE, N.J., Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Barr Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE: BRL) today confirmed that its subsidiary, Barr Laboratories, Inc., has initiated a challenge of the patents listed by GlaxoSmithKline in connection with its Avodart(R) (dutasteride) soft gelatin capsules, 0.5mg. The Company believes that it is the first to file an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) containing a paragraph IV certification for Avodart.
Barr filed its ANDA containing a paragraph IV certification for a generic Avodart product with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) in October 2007, and received notification of the application's acceptance for filing in January 2008. Following receipt of the notice from the FDA that Barr's ANDA had been accepted for filing, Barr notified the New Drug Application (NDA) and patent holder.
On February 25, 2008, GlaxoSmithKline filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware to prevent Barr from proceeding with the commercialization of its product. This action formally initiates the patent challenge process under the Hatch-Waxman Act.
Avodart (dutasteride) had annual sales of approximately $362 million in the U.S., based on IMS sales data for the twelve-month period ending December 2007.

I like Vera Bradley bags because they are light weight. I have two cameras that I carry around and am looking for a Vera Bradley bag that could be used to carry a camera (or two) with equipment.
I buy on Ebay and there is a seller that gives return customers a discount, not much, but everything helps.
I need pockets, shoulder strap and something compact, yet big enough to carry small slr camera with batteries and charger. I also have a pocket camera that I could carry there as well.
They have a tech case- but that's really for jsut one smaller camera and maybe some accessories (batteries, memory card - or cords). It's a wristlet too- although lanyards are sold where you can make it for around the neck (my daughter did with hers).
If you're looking for something a little bigger with a true shoulder strap, the mini hipsters are a great crossbody wiht lots of pockets! There's also a regular hipster- a little bigger but still a compact bag with great organization.
The Vera Bradley website is a wealth of information!
I've had to call the C/S people a couple of times. If someone here can't help you, perhaps you can call them and give them all the information about what you're needing to carry. I found them to be very helpful. Love VB!!!!
I use a Vera baby bag to carry my camera and accessories. It may be larger than you are looking for, but it works good for me.
Checking the VB website is a great suggestion. You can look around and get an idea of what might work for you. If you can't decide between a few, you can run the styles past us on this board and get suggestions.
If you are looking for a cross-body, Saddle Up is a great one. The center section is ample and of course there are pockets inside. Under the magnetic front flap, there are two good sized pockets you could use for batteries, etc.
I did look on the website and read all I could find. It just couldn't give me the first hand experience you all can give me. I didn't think to call them. I think that will be my next step. Thanks.
Update, thanks all. I called the website and got a bag that they suggested and when I checked on Ebay it was cheaper to buy directly from them.
It was the side by side tote. I am happy with the customer service and hopefully pleased with my selection.
I am getting tired of carrying my cameras and hunting for the parts inside a bag that is too big or not properly divided.
The side by side tote is pretty sizeable- a great bag (lots of organization!) but the shoulder strap wasn't long enough for the bag to fit comfortably under my arm. I was in 'I need a Vera tote!' mode for awhile, I bought the Villager in Puccini. I'm fortunate to have a Vera store nearby so I 'tested' the fit first!! What pattern did you get?
The Villager tote would be a good option. It has several pockets inside, two pockets outside, a nice long shoulder drop and a top zipper closure. It is roomy without being overwhelmingly big.
The Vera tote is a bit larger (I use one for a gym bag, another for hauling the kids' stuff around) but it closes with a toggle, not a zipper. Still lightweight. Quite spacious inside.
Something Wonderful Is About To Happen!!!!
I got Versailles. It was on sale for $39 and even Ebay sellers could not beat it even after I payed shipping and tax. I am going to try it out. It is has flat bottom which will make my camera more secure if there is such a thing in a soft bag. I am forever trying to find all my camera parts in what I usually carry. I had to get something. My camera bags were never right for exactly what I carry. I love photography and take lots of shots just about everywhere I go. I am starting to get calls for my pictures when someone wants to print something or honor someone.
Doubled answer so I erased this one. Sorry. I am waiting for the bag to arrive.
Today the VB site is offering 20% off on all sale items- tomorrow it'll be 10%. The promo code is EARLYBIRD. Versailles is a great pattern- that was my first last year!! If you contact VB's site, they'll credit you the 20%. Great customer service!
Ebay is great for VB sometimes- I've only bought the current patterns from ebay since VB often omits them from their sales. I was anxious for the large duffel in Baroque specifically- $50 on ebay. And over $80 at the store!
I placed an order earlier today and didn't know about the code. I called and they issued me a credit/gift code for my next order @ 20% off my order. BUT they raised the prices between the time I placed my order, pretty much 20% on the items I ordered. I still got the lower prices + the 20% credit for my next order.
Good customer service but they do play the games with prices and % off . . .
Oh well, I'm happy with my order, my prices and my 26 bucks and some change for my future order.
I just called to see if they would give me a discount. They said it was ordered and it was too late. And they said they did not know about the offer and had put it in without it. I felt rather uneasy because places like Coldwater Creek would not have treated me that way.
However to appease me, they are going to email me a certificate on the next order which will amount to free shipping.
I feel better, but the 20% would have been nice. And their system should have been set up to help me out.

Moisturizers -- Tips To Choose One That Works
ROCHESTER, Minn., Nov. 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The November issue of Mayo Clinic Health Letter offers facts to help size up the best skin moisturizers.
Retail stores carry an overwhelming array of moisturizer choices. There is something for everything from eyelids to feet at prices from less than $10 to more than $100. The good news is that it's hard to choose all wrong. Most -- if not all -- nonprescription moisturizers help smooth skin and replenish moisture in the outermost layer of the skin.
But products with claims that go beyond the basics probably aren't
worth the extra cost. In fact, higher cost doesn't correlate with a more
effective product. Selecting a moisturizer often comes down to personal
preference. Take these tips into consideration when it comes to selecting a
moisturizer for:
-- The face or other acne prone areas -- Use products designed specifically
for the face. Other moisturizers may clog pores.
-- Extra dry skin -- Look for a product with petrolatum as one of the top
three ingredients. Products containing glycerin, lactic acid or urea can
provide an extra boost. However, they may sting on application,
especially for those with cracked skin.
-- Sensitive skin -- Almost any moisturizer ingredient can cause skin
irritation or allergy, but fragrances, dyes, lanolin and the
preservatives parabens and formaldehyde tend to be the most common
Moisturizers work best when used daily and immediately after a bath or shower. Well-hydrated skin feels better -- soft, smooth and pliable -- and it's healthy, too. In well-hydrated skin, dead cells of the skin's outer layer are more compact and orderly. This better shields the body from germs and allows dead skin cells to shed without becoming scaly or flaky.

By Clay Angelly
- March 10, 2003
We'll start with the packaging. The box is your standard cardboard (no metal
briefcases here to jack up the cost) with a blonde man, or woman--not really
sure--sporting some yellow face paint, freckles and a red targeting reticle. I'm
sure there's some meaning behind this but it escapes me as to what it is.
I know some of you would prefer that I elaborate ad nauseum on the finer
points of package design, presentation, etc but I just don't have it in me. Like
they say, "it's what's on the inside that matters" so let's take a peek at
the contents.
At first glance, it appears that the bundled software inside isn't a whole
heck of lot. However, taking a closer look reveals more than you'd first think:
All three of these applications installed and ran without any problem. They
all have nice, slick interfaces and were intuitive to use. I did not have the
time for this review to use them to any extent but
based on the reviews around
the web it looks to be a solid addition from Gainward.
ExperTool also provides an alternative interface to your standard Windows Display settings
which I really liked. Quite a bit of detailed information regarding your video
card, monitor, etc can also be found here along with a nice
screen adjustment
pattern to boot. At the time of this writing I noticed that a new version
(3.05) was available from the Gainward website. I'd been using version 3.04 so
if I find anything worth mentioning from version 3.05, an update to this review
will be posted.
Gainward uses the red PCB as you can see below. You either think this is cool
or could care less. I like it myself and am just waiting to see who'll come out
with a multi-colored, camouflaged, photo-inlaid, etc PCB (you know it's just a
matter of time). Plaid, I think plaid would be a nice way to make your video
card standout in a case. Seriously though, the card is of high quality build and
there's really nothing to gripe about.
One of the first things worth noting is that of the memory heatsinks on both
sides of the card. These undoubtedly help to make this card as stable as it is,
even at overclocked speeds well above spec. The memory used is -3.3ns Samsung
DDR m-BGA type which also aids in the stability for this card.
The GPU HSF is solid aluminum and isn't really all that exciting. However, it
looks nice (details such as "GAINWARD" and their logo) spruce it up. What is
exciting about it is that it was relatively quiet in my opinion (compared to a
recent ATI Radeon LE GPU HSF that I'd been using). Most importantly is that it
performs well as overclocking the core to 320 MHz (+15% over the default core of
275) was no problem at all. I'd assume that replacing the standard thermal paste
with some Artic Silver would yield even more headroom.
Three other items worth noting on the card are the firewire connector
(upper-left). This particular product doesn't come with a firewire card but
Gainward does offer this option.
The second point of interest is the
THine THC63DV164 chip set. This is the transmitter for the signal to a
monitor connected to the DVI output of the card. This is the newest transmitter
chip set from THine and is 25-170MHz instead of the older 25-120MHz version.
Among other things, this chip set has on chip input jitter filtering, low power
requirements and various programmable features.
The final point of interest is the
Philips SAA7108AE video encoder/decoder. In short, this puppy packs a ton of
functionality into a very small footprint. It can output to TV up to 1280x1024
and also HDTV output of (1080i/720p/480i).
The faceplate of the card provides what you'd expect with VGA, S-Video and
DVI connectors.

what does it mean that the US markets are in turmoil and in threat of collapse?
Do you remember 1929? Well no you don't but you know what happened then yes?
Well some people are saying it's going to happen again unless the government steps in.
since we have helped everyone else in this world except the people in our own backyards ... we are in for a long & painful recession .
Home finance companies were having appraisers rate homes at more than they are actually worth . People took out these large mortgage loans thinking they could sell their homes at the appraised price . Not !!! Now they are losing their homes to foreclosures as they can not pay for the loan . Thats only a small piece of the answer . I'm not really sure myself brit . But I have no idea how people get themselves in such grave debt .
There was a couple on Oprah Winfrey that owes NINETY THOUSAND DOLLARS on credit cards alone . I often worried about our credit card debt, but after hearing these horror stories, we owe peanuts compared to that . I'd drive my car off a cliff if I owed that much .
I'm thankful that we are in the position that we pay our bills on time every month . Even if we do only make our minimum payment or a bit more . We are safe, for now .
Well I think it's rather more to do with the global financial markets being based on speculation and feelings of confidence rather more than any of us non-financial people would probably believe.
We've seen before companies lose almost all their "paper value" overnight because investers lose confidence and sell sell sell, speculators bet on how low it'll go and so on. Then you get people speculating on when it'll get bought and how much the share price will go up.
In other words to some of the financial players out there, this is a huge game and despite the way it looks, *SOME* people are making a huge amount of money out of it :(
At least the US is trying to do something. Who knows if it's the right thing.. I'll be interested to read the text because throwing money at the problem just seems to me like you'll be effectively giving it to the get rich quick people... but still it's more than I've heard the UK government trying to do :(

b/c Wall Street has come close to crashing . If banks fold, people can't get their money . The world as we know it will come to a standstill . No banks, no jobs . People standing in bread lines . Well, maybe not as bad as 1929, but close to it .Originally Posted by britchick, post: 52883
Two businesses in NY are now excepting Euro's and they are getting trashed because of it . They are doing what they have to, to stay afloat . I don't blame them . I'm not certain of the correct answer, britchick . Just repeating what I have heard on the news & Oprah .
And its not one credit card , these people have thirty different credit cards .
ok...thirty cards??? who gets that many cards? I mean really....we don't have nearly that many but plan on finishing paying them off and cutting that number down ...to like 3 maybe. 1 for emergencies, 1 for car troubles and one for essentials between paydays..... we would go card free but jeeze...everything costs so much we would have to carry a load of cash and that's asking for trouble.
These makes my £300 ovedraft look so insignificant.
As Keith said, it's a number of issues that should have been monitored all along and the proper controls used, but they weren't. The regulations were on the books, but the regulators were asleep at the controls.
1. As Tinker said, part of the issue is the real estate bubble that began to deflate about two years ago and really burst in the past year. Properties were purchased and flipped--primarily by out-of-state investors, but locals as well--for higher and higher prices, which added to the overstated values of single and multiple family homes. I was doing some work for a real estate company at the height of the craziness, and there were eight four-plexes that were flipped at least seven times before construction was completed. I think they were flipped two or three times before construction even began. Talk about insanity! And that was just our local market!
2. Part of the real estate bubble involved people refinancing home loans and taking cash out of their homes for what ever reason. Some were renovating or remodeling, others used it to finance college for their children, travel, pay down other debt, etc. When defaults began on investment residences and readjusting ARMs (see #3), the value of all homes began deflating and many people ended up owing more than their homes are currently worth.
3. Another issue in the real estate arena is sub-prime loans. These are home loans issued at very high interest rates to people who wouldn't qualify for conventional loans. Most of these were/are Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs), where the rate could reset every 12 to 24 months--usually higher. Most increased anywhere from .5% to 2% each term. And guess what? The people who couldn't afford these mortgages in the first place defaulted as soon as the rates reset. Keep in mind that, in addition to some people seriously trying to get a foothold in the real estate market, there were some unscrupulous lenders whose ethics could be questioned in many of these transactions.
4. The investment banking community purchases and resells mortgage packages as investments. This is facilitated by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two quasi-governmental companies. They were created by the government "with the faith of the US government" (or words to that effect) behind them, but actually are private companies. And were operated with little or no oversight--you can see where this is leading. When real estate values deflated and homeowners defaulted, it affected the investments in many portfolios, including 401K and similar retirement plans, cities, counties--whoever invested in these packages.
5. In addition to the real estate woes, the anti-trust laws were cicumvented and some banks, insurance companies and investment firms were allowed to become too large--hence the "too big to be allowed to fail" statement. Also, the products of these companies--particularly banks--were blurred when sold, so many less sophisticated bank clients were caught in uninsured accounts (investments, money market accounts, etc.) that they assumed were insured because the bank itself was FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) insured. Again, questionable ethics by some banks.
6. And, as Keith mentioned, there are confidence issues with the financial world in general. The UK suspended short selling (buying and selling stock expecting the value to decrease) well over a week ago, and the US finally followed suit. The US ignored the controls in place--once again! :sigh;
Since finance is global these days, all of these issues are affecting the banking and finance industries in most developed countries, as well as the US. Another area that hasn't been regulated--and is supposed to be--is investment by foreign governments in key US industries--which includes banking and finance.
This entire mess has brought the US credit system practically to a halt. What money can be loaned/borrowed is at very high interest rates. Companies that operate using OPM (other people's money) are in a very difficult position. They borrow just to operate. This includes banks (you really don't want a lesson in how the Federal Reserve system operates, do you?), as well as industry.
Now, the US taxpayers are being asked to fork over $7 BILLION to bail out some of these financial firms--and the CEOs and other executives are being terminated or leaving prior to termination with huge golden parachutes (departing bonuses) that the taxpayers are expected to pay. The golden parachutes were intended to compensate executives if a company was acquired in a hostile takeover, not for termination due to gross negligence. Keep in mind, Bear Stearnes (spelling?), Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac and AIG (insurance company that handles workers comp and others types of insurance) already have been bailed out. This is in addition to that!
The proposal was made to Congress without any planned oversight for use of the money by a department that has no accountability to the taxpayers--essentially a very large blank cheque! Congress now is discussing oversight, investment in the companies that would be "bailed out" (mostly by purchasing overvalued, defaulted properties), and controlling executive compensation. And a few other things.
It's also becoming a case of "what can we get" for other companies--credit card companies because so many people have defaulted on their cards; the auto industry which, once again, failed to plan for higher fuel prices or scarcity and continued making huge vehicles (higher profit margins) instead of having a balanced inventory; and a number of other industries I can't even think about at the moment.
So, we have a mess, which is affecting the rest of the world. And their messes are affecting the US, as well.
Our mess is your mess, or vice versa. Everything will work out in the end, it's just a matter of how, how, much, how long, and how painful. And let's hope all of our governments do their jobs in the future! :)

text: Fantasy baseball is a game of patience. It's tempting to jettison players who don't deliver on their promise, especially when they continue to disappoint deep into midseason. Owners who took a chance on acquiring players like Shin-Soo Choo, Ben Zobrist and Cameron Maybin when they were struggling took the risk of getting stuck with a dud, but lately the risk has paid off. Those who bought low on these three are now enjoying the fruits of skill sets that were somewhat dormant earlier in the season, but the signs of better performance were there in their longer-term track records.

San Marcos council to rehear Wal-Mart issue
SAN MARCOS -- Opponents of a Wal-Mart planned in southwest San Marcos hope that a referendum on the issue never makes it to the ballot.
Instead, they say they hope the mere sight of 4,600 signatures tips the scales in their favor on Tuesday when the council considers repealing its earlier approval of the project. The council can also decide to put a referendum on the issue on the March 2 ballot. The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. in City Hall.
In interviews last week, a majority of council members said they were leaning toward giving voters the final say.
That will mean another long fight for opponents of the store, who will have to give San Marcos voters who live nowhere near the site a reason to vote against the store.
"We would definitely like them to rescind, that'd be the quickest way for them to get this over with," said Stephen Bennett, a Meadowlark Ranch resident who's opposed to Wal-Mart being built across the street from his neighborhood.
On Aug. 12, the council voted to make a number of changes to the University Commons development to allow a Wal-Mart to be built in the community. The 139,000-square-foot store is planned on about 20 acres at the northeast corner of Rancho Santa Fe Road and the extension of Melrose Drive.
The 3-2 vote came after a nearly six-hour meeting at which San Marcos, Carlsbad and county residents complained that the store would worsen gridlock, bring glaring light into nearby residential neighborhoods and that its vast parking lot would encourage loitering and create safety concerns at night.
Opponents quickly gathered some 4,600 signatures, roughly twice the number needed, to force a referendum on the vote. The retailer has sued to try to block the referendum and is appealing a judge's tentative ruling that would allow the vote.
The lawsuit, which names the City Council, City Clerk Susie Vasquez and County Registrar Sally McPherson, may be the nail in Wal-Mart's coffin, said Councilman Hal Martin. Martin, who was in the minority with Councilwoman Pia Harris-Ebert, said that he hoped the council would rescind its vote.
"I'm not going to be bullied by a lawsuit from Wal-Mart," he said.
Wal-Mart spokesman Pete Kanelos said last week that the city was named because they were part of the process. He said Wal-Mart officials will be at Tuesday's meeting but was not sure if they would address the council.
"We're obviously interested in what the council's decision will be," he said.
The three council members, who voted to approve the Wal-Mart off Rancho Santa Fe Road, Mayor Corky Smith, Vice Mayor Mike Preston and Councilman Lee Thibadeau, said the best course may be to put the referendum on the ballot.
"I don't like the way they collected the signatures, but the judge has ruled it should go to the voters and I think that's what should be done," said Smith, referring to the $30,000 in union money that was paid to signature gatherers for the opposition group, Citizens for Responsible Growth in San Marcos.

Too wet to garden here as the soil is waterlooged so can't even risk getting on it for weeding. However, I have a newish womanshed which needs its new shelves finishing and an OH on hand to help. Then it'll be a case of transferring garden stuff in to there from the garage so we can do something radical like get a car in it.
A few pots big left to move into greenhouse or shed and the bay tree to bring indoors before winter hits. Need to call a man about lanwmower maintenance too and, food to plan and prepare as ever.
Not going anywhere near seeds till the days are longer and there's more light.
I find winter jasmine very tricky as it's really too cold for it in my garden and it's desperately dull for 50 weeks of the year.
Have you thought about winter flowering clematis such as cirrhosa Freckles or Wisley Cream? You can look them up here - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/ Both do well on a sheltered wall. You could also try an evergreen honeysuckle such as Dropmore Scarlet or Halliana or Sempervirens. They don't flower in winter but you'd have the foliage. Another possibility is one of the large leaved variegated ivies which have the benefit of being good habitat and food for wildlife.
It looks undernourished to me so feed it and, if possible, trim back any nearby growth which is shading it from light and rain. You'll be able to see your standard much better if it has less visual competitition too.
If this is a Montana - and it seems likely - then you will lose one season of flowers if you cut it back hard before mid April asthey flower on old wood. On the other hand, by cutting half back now to leave a manageable bundle, you will have an easier time replacing the old supports with something stronger and more extensive and then you can more easily train in the new shoots come spring to have a more manageable and attractive plant in future.
Montanas are pruning group 1 so usually they are tidied up once flowering finishes in spring but only pruned enough to remove any dead wood and keep them in bounds. They are vigorous so it will need to be regularly monitored and trained in to its support. They recover well from a severe haircut as long as the new growth isn't zapped by untimely heavy frosts which is why I suggested earlier that you could take it back by a half - as insurance.
You can safely cut back half the growth now to tidy it up and reduce wind resistance. This will leave plenty of stems to produce new buds next spring even if some get clobbered by early frosts. i'm about to d this on a Little Nell taht has been torn of its supporting arch by the high winds. As it's a group 3 which regenerates from th ebase I can safely do this.
Given yours is an unknown quantity, just prune off what you need to make it manageable. What's left can be untangled from its support and leaned away from the house wall while you put in a stronger support. If you are attaching new trellis, screw it to battens fixed to the wall as this will allow air to flow and reduce the likelihood of disease.
Come the spring, feed your clematis generously with clematis food and then wait fo it to flower. You can then use the month of flowering and the colour to try and identify it and see what pruning regime it needs for the future to keep it looking good. This site has a search facility and lists over 3000 clematis so yours should be in there - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/ it also has advice on pruning.
As KT says, if you cut it back hard you risk losing the flowers fo rthe next season but you will have a rejuvenated plant. Wait until early or late March - depending on how severe a winter we get - and then prune it back to just two or three buds on each stem. Pull away all the unwanted growth and then give it a generous feed of proper clematis fod - available in good garden centres - and an instant liquid tonic of rose or tomato food.
Once it does flower, note the month and colour and size of flowering and you can look it up on this site - http://www.clematis.hull.ac.uk/. A general pruning rule is that if it flowers before the end of June you prune after flowering. If it flowers from July onwards, you cut it back in March. The clematis site explains in more depth.
Making a new, unlined pond is the obvious answer to drainage problems. We did it as our garden would otherwise be waterlogged all year. Make it good and deep in the middle - 3' is good - and plant the edges with marginals such as iris sibirica and other irises plus some tall plants like miscanthus zebrinus which will mask the pond a bit when water levels recede in summer. As it is unlined you will need to referee as plants like yellow flag, bullrushes and native grasses will do their best to invade and terraform it so invest in some waders form a fishing supplies shop.
Since you can't do much else in winter, get to the lirary and borrow books on shade gardening. There are lots out there and an east facing garden should present plenty of opportunities for beautiful and interesting plants. Wildlife doesn't need native plants so much as plants which provide pollen, nectar and shelter. You can also consult the RHS Plant Selector for plants suitable for an east facing garden - http://apps.rhs.org.uk/plantselector/
With a new and unknown garden it's also a good idea to let it be in its first year and just weed borders, cut tehgrass and do obvious pruning. Then you can see what you have and what you need to change. Take photos and jot down ideas as they occur so that, come autumn, you can start the planning and design of all the changes you want to make. You can also sow seeds and bring on new perennials for planting out later on.
Maybe they should call it Sports Person of the year as that encompasses sporting achievement without refernce to a trait such as personality.
As for Abby - I don't care who she's married to or what she does to earn a crust although being a model is no less valuable to society than being an actress - probably more as there are real jobs involved in designing, creating and selling the clothes she promotes. She has turned out to be a delightful and accomplished dancer who has worked hard and improved her technique and performance every week.
We do it in Euros so anything from 50 cents for a 3" pot with something common like forget-me-not or a primula to €5 or more for a large pot with a perennial or a shrub. Seeds like honesty and verbena bonariensis will go for 50cents. Sometimes we get spare packets of sweet peas or pumpkins and sell those for €1,00. Last year I picked up 8 unwanted deep purpe gladioli for just €1 as they were left at the end. They did very well in a pot with purple and white petunias.
I do this with my garden group. It's the usual suspects who bring the most plants and like to have first pick which seems reasonable to me but then they're all very polite about it being all women with an honorary husband who tags along and who provides some of the best plants.
We also provide many of the plants for a charity sale in May and that can vary from our well prepared seedlings, cuttings and dvisions to poor plants that have been grubbed up and stuck in a bag or pot with no care at all.
I would insist on having plants properly potted up and labelled so they can be identified and looked up. Proper labels on any seed packets too and then charge according to plant or pot size depending on how easy it is to find and propagate.

A press release by www.TheStarFactoryEnt.com
From adult films to reality TV and back again, Veronica Rayne continues her exciting and controversial career. While starring on the Fox reality shows My Bare Lady 2: Open for Business, the out spoken Rayne stole the spotlight with her vampish ways that gave the series its ''must-watch'' appeal.
Loyal to her Adult Film beginnings, Rayne returned to XXX to film a parody of Kim Kardashians TV Show for Hustler, Keeping it Up for the KardASSians. While the parody was hit with a lawsuit, Veronicas performance as Kim was a hit with reviewers. Not one to take things lying down Rayne leapt into appearing in another adult movie parody that is currently grabbing headline This Aint Hells Kitchen XXX.
The glam bomb always has projects in the works, one of which that is coming to fruition is her appearance in the upcoming mainstream motion picture, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell. Based on the book by Tucker Max, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell has a September 25th release date.

Jesse McCartney did a "Roseanne Barr" this weekend — OK, it wasn't that bad– but he did botch the national anthem.
McCartney, 22,was performing at the Pepsi 500 NASCAR race on Sunday when he managed to completely skip over a line of The Star-Spangled Banner.
Fortunately, the singer/actor managed to keep his cool and finish the song.
Later on his Twitter page, McCartney posted: "Here At the Nascar race! So much fun! Can't believe I forgot the words to the Anthem! I've performed it 100 times. Bad Nerves today."
We forgive you.
