Sirsa district (Hindi: सिरसा ज़िला; Punjabi: ਸਿਰਸਾ ਜ਼ਿਲਾ) is one of the districts of Haryana state, India. Sirsa is the district headquarters, and is located on National Highway 10 and 250 km away from Delhi.
Origin of name[edit]
The district is named after its headquarters, Sirsa. The name, Sirsa is derived from its ancient Sanskrit name Sairishaka, which is mentioned in the Mahabharata, the Ashtadhyayi and the Divyavadana. In Mahabharata, Sairishaka is described as being taken by Nakula in his conquest of the western quarter. It must have been a flourishing city in the 5th century B.C. as it has been mentioned by Panini.
There are a number of legends about the origin of the name of the town. Its ancient name was Sairishaka and from that it seems to have been corrupted to Sirsa. According to local tradition, an unknown king named Saras founded the town in the 7th century A.D. and built a fort. The material remains of an ancient fort can still be seen in the south-east of the present town. It is about 5 km in circumference. According to another tradition, the name has its origin from the sacred river Sarasvati which one flowed near it. During the medieval period, the town was known as Sarsuti. It has been mentioned as Sarsuti by a number of medieval historians. The derivation of name Sirsa, is also attributed to the abundance of siris trees (Albizia lebbeck (Benth)) in the neighborhood of Sirsa which seems quite plausible for it finds some corroboration also in Panini and his commentator. In the ancient period, Sirsa was also known as Sirsapattan.However some local still believes that name may be derived from famous Sarsai Nath whose temple is there in the city.
In 1819, the territory occupied by the present district was taken over by the British and it became part of the North Western district of the Delhi territory. In 1820, the North Western district was bifurcated into Northern and Western districts and this territory became part of Western district, which was later renamed Haryana district. In 1837, it was separated from Haryana district and merged with newly formed Bhattiana district. In 1858, Bhattiana district was transferred to Punjab Province and renamed Sirsa district. In 1884, Sirsa district was abolished, its two tehsils, Sirsa and Dabwali were merged to form Sirsa tehsil, which became part of Hissar district of Punjab Province. On 1 November 1966, it became part of newly formed state of Haryana. In 1968, Sirsa tehsil was again bifurcated to Sirsa and Dabwali tehsils. The present district was carved out on September 1, 1975 by amalgamating Sirsa and Dabwali tehsils of erstwhile Hissar district.
In 2006 the Ministry of Panchayati Raj named Sirsa one of the country's 250 most backward districts (out of a total of 640).[1] It is one of the two districts in Haryana currently receiving funds from the Backward Regions Grant Fund Programme (BRGF).[1]
The district comprises four tehsils: Sirsa, Dabwali, Rania and Ellenabad. These tehsils are further sub-divided into 7 blocks: Baragudha, Dabwali, Ellenabad, Nathusary Chopta, Odhan, Rania and Sirsa.
There are 5 Vidhan Sabha constituencies in this district: Kalanwali, Dabwali, Rania, Sirsa and Ellenabad. All of these are part of Sirsa Lok Sabha constituency.
According to the 2011 census Sirsa district has a population of 1,295,189,[2] roughly equal to the nation of Mauritius[3] or the US state of New Hampshire.[4] This gives it a ranking of 378th in India (out of a total of 640).[2] The district has a population density of 303 inhabitants per square kilometre (780/sq mi).[2] As of the 2011 census, its population growth rate over the decade 2001-2011 was 15.99%,[2] with a sex ratio of 897 females for every 1000 males[2] and a literacy rate of 68.82%.[2]
Vernaculars include Bagri, a tonal language in the Rajasthani cluster spoken by an estimated 2,100,000 people.[5][6]
Besides, Hindi, Saraiki language, Punjabi and Urdu are also in use in this district.

Awesome sense of light and atmosphere on those pics...
My only crit would be in the coloured dragon, the one that breaths fire. The composition seems a little forced. Maybe more space in the top and right sides would let the figure "breathe" more(no pun intended)
Other than that, I will only say Keep posting! I think I will learn a lot from your work.

When Charles Webster was a member of the Maine House during the 1980s and 1990s, he and his Republican colleagues routinely proposed bills that would create restrictive voting laws -- or, as Webster sees it, legislation to tamp down on the rampant threat of voter fraud. "Every year we tried to solve this problem," he says, "and it was always a partisan vote," with Democrats supporting laws intended to increase turnout. As a result, Webster says, "We have one of the most loosey-goosey, lax election laws in the country."
Others would call Maine's voting laws a striking success. Most states struggle to get citizens to the polls; national turnout for a presidential election hasn't topped 60 percent since 1968, and turnout for midterm elections hovers in the 30s. That puts the United States far below the participation level in other Western democracies. Yet for the past four decades, Maine has stood apart. With an array of regulations that encourage voting -- the state has allowed voters to register on Election Day since 1973 -- Maine consistently places among the top five states for turnout. Seventy-two percent of the eligible population voted in 2008 when Barack Obama carried the state.
Republicans like Webster, who now chairs the state GOP, argue that too many people are voting in the state -- at least, too many illegal immigrants, out-of-state college students, and people who live in hotels. "What I don't want is somebody coming in stealing elections who doesn't live in the town," Webster says.
The political winds shifted Webster's way after the 2010 elections -- not just in Maine but across the country. Maine was one of 11 states where Republican majorities won control over both legislatures. This was the first time in four decades that Democrats had been out of power in the state, and the new Republican majority acted fast. After trying and failing to pass a voter -- identification law, they succeeded in repealing same-day voter registration. Republican Governor Paul LePage signed the bill in June.
The push against voting rights in Maine is just one example of the most direct assault on ballot access since the Jim Crow era. The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), the influential corporate-funded group that writes model bills for Republican state legislators, has pushed Republicans across the country to impose new restrictions on voting and to overturn progressive laws like Maine's. "I don't want everybody to vote," ALEC co-founder Paul Weyrich said three decades ago. "As a matter of fact, our leverage in the elections quite candidly goes up as the voting populace goes down."
Since the Voting Rights Act of 1965, states have passed a steady stream of reforms to make it easier for people to vote. Now Republicans are pushing to make voting more difficult. "This is a hard-fought privilege," one Florida state senator said earlier this year. "This is something people die for. You want to make it convenient?"
The most headline-grabbing effort has been the creation of laws requiring voters to have photo identification at the polls. Five states -- Texas, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Tennessee, and Kansas -- have enacted strict photo-ID laws since the beginning of the year. Democrats argue that these laws have clear political motivations. Studies indicate that the groups most likely to vote Democratic -- the young, elderly, poor, mobile, and minorities -- are the ones whose members tend to lack a photo ID. The rules are often configured specifically to favor the Republican base at the expense of excluding likely Democrats. In Texas, for example, showing a military ID or a concealed-gun license will get you a ballot, but a college ID won't. As many as one in four African Americans lack the identification these states now require, leading Georgia Congressman John Lewis to call the laws "poll taxes by another name." (Under the Voting Rights Act, voter-ID laws in Texas and South Carolina must be approved by the Department of Justice because of those states' history of minority-voter suppression. At press time, the department had not yet ruled.)
But as stifling as voter-ID laws might be, a plethora of manipulations to voter-access laws pose an even larger threat. Numerous states recently have cut back on early voting, which had made it much easier for the working poor -- people who often can't get off work on Election Day -- to cast a ballot. In 2008, around 40 million Americans took advantage of early voting. That number will almost surely be lower in 2012, thanks to Republican efforts in states like Ohio. Thirty percent of Ohio's ballots in the last presidential election were cast by early or absentee voters. In March, though, the Republican -- controlled legislature reduced the state's 35-day window of early voting to 24 days of mail-in voting and just 11 days of in-person early voting. Florida also shortened its early-voting window and made things even trickier for voting-rights advocates by rewriting state laws to impose steep fines on voter-registration organizations if registration forms contain even minor mistakes. The League of Women Voters, the group at the forefront of registering voters across the country, shuttered its Florida voter-registration operation as a result.
Florida is also one of a handful of states that have rolled back voting rights for former felons. In Iowa, Governor Tom Vilsack, a Democrat, had signed an executive order in 2005 granting voting rights to felons as soon as they left prison. On his first day in office this year, Republican Governor Terry Branstad rescinded that order, removing 100,000 voters from the rolls with a stroke of his pen.
Republicans have pushed these new restrictions under the pretense of reducing voter fraud. "Protecting the integrity of our elections is central to ensuring our government has the full faith and confidence of the citizens it represents," Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker said after he signed a photo-ID law. "Requiring photo identification to vote will go a long way to eliminate the threat of voter fraud. If you need an ID to buy cold medicine, it's reasonable to require it to vote." But there is scant evidence of voter fraud in any state. The Brennan Center for Justice concluded in a 2007 study that fraud was so "exceedingly rare" that a voter is more likely to be struck by lightning than to cast a fraudulent ballot. "It's a red herring," says Eric Marshall of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights. "It's a reason for them to pass restrictive legislation and limit access to the ballot box."
That's certainly been the case in Maine. When House Speaker Robert Nutting first put the repeal of same-day registration on the table this year, he argued that the measure was intended to ease the burden on county clerks overwhelmed by the number of first-time voters showing up on Election Day. When county clerks testified against that section of the bill, saying same-day registrants did not overwhelm them, the Republicans were left to rail against the threat of fraudulent voting. The only problem: No such threat exists in Maine. Only two successful prosecutions of voter fraud have occurred in the 38 years since same-day registration became the law.
Webster, the state party chair, makes no bones about the political reasons for new voting restrictions. He calls the groups that support same-day registration the "welfare coalition": "It's the give-me groups. It's the groups that want government spending." Webster has been equally explicit in his effort to prevent college students from voting in Maine -- though the U.S. Supreme Court's 1979 ruling in Symm v. U.S. clearly established that college students could register in their school's district. Webster combed through voting rolls earlier this year and published a list of 206 out-of-state students he believed may have committed voter fraud; the secretary of state, a Republican, opened an investigation. Yet after two months of digging into the allegations, the secretary's office found that none of the college students voted improperly.
At first blush, same-day registration might seem like a small-bore issue that wouldn't affect all that many potential voters. But 60,000 Mainers -- of 750,000 total voters -- took advantage of the regulation during the 2008 election, and 20,000 did so during the 2010 midterms. "Same-day registration is one of the most important measures that states can introduce to improve voter turnout," says Ann Luther of the Maine chapter of the League of Women Voters. Indeed, the nine states with same-day registration have, on average, 7 percent higher turnout than the states without those rules. That's particularly useful for younger voters. "When we dig into why, the answer is fairly straightforward," says Heather Smith, president of Rock the Vote. "They're new to the process, and they're highly mobile."
Just as African Americans are disproportionately affected by voter-ID laws, overturning same-day registration laws has a dampening effect on a particular class of people. For people who own their own home, the ability to register on Election Day is a minor concern; once you've registered, you should be set for decades. It's the mobile groups of society -- the young, the elderly, and the poor -- who need as many opportunities as possible to get themselves onto voting rolls. Renters are more likely to move in the time between elections. For the working poor, adding an extra step that requires advanced planning will only further reduce turnout -- especially among those most likely to vote Democratic. "The people who tend to be harmed by further restrictions on getting to the polls are the people who are on the margins anyway," says Justin Levitt, a professor at Loyola Law School. "Most voters see these new re-strictions as minor hassles that they can easily overcome. But that leaves a substantial minority -- upwards of millions of people -- for whom what seems like minor hassles turns out to be a pretty big deal."
Mainers are fighting back against the repeal of same-day registration. Protect Maine Votes, an organization made up of 18 voting-rights groups, gathered more than 70,000 signatures in less than four weeks to get a referendum on this November's ballot to overturn the new law. While Protect Maine Votes is urging voters to continue the state's history of open elections, Republicans are relying on the fear of stolen elections. "In the end, the issue will be: Do people believe our system is free of fraud, or do they believe it's got fraud?" Webster says. "If they believe it's free of fraud, then they'll keep the law."
While the referendum's organizers say they're confident that Maine voters will support same-day registration, they worry about what happens to voter participation in future elections if the referendum fails. "I don't know how far it will drop the first year," says David Farmer, communications director for Protect Maine Votes, "but I absolutely believe that the [type of] people who registered in the last two elections will go and try to vote and not be allowed."
The pushback against restrictive voting laws is picking up some steam outside of Maine. In early September, Democrats on a Senate Judiciary subcommittee held a "Barriers to the Ballot" hearing. National groups like Rock the Vote have also begun to raise awareness about the impact of these new regulations. "It appears some of these politicians are more interested in deciding who the electorate is than in letting the electorate decide who represents them," Smith says. "And that, to me, is something worth standing up against."

"Voter fraud doesn't exist because there have been virtually no successful prosecutions of voter fraud." (paraphrasing the author)
That, sir, is a ridiculous argument. Did you ever stop to think that prosecutions aren't possible simply BECAUSE no ID requirements existed? You can't prove voter fraud if you can't successfully identify the person that voted!!
The rest of your arguments are equally inane. ID is not "burdensome" - you need it to buy alcohol, you need it to buy prescription and many OTC drugs, you need it at the social security administration - the list is endless. And the states enacting voter ID will NOT charge for the ID if the person can't afford it, so this "Jim Crow poll tax" argument is just as invalid.
As for student IDs - I fail to see why they should have any validity at all as a method of identification with respect to RESIDENCY for VOTING!! A student living in a dorm, or even living off-campus, who has not established a year-round domicile with an intent to stay in a given state is NOT A RESIDENT OF SAID STATE! They should not be allowed to vote. And since states do not share voter rolls, what would restrict said student from voting not only in the state where they attend college, but in their home state as well?
Identification, in 2011, is not an onerous requirement. Voter fraud DOES exist (the "cemetary vote" in Chicago is not just a joke). Get over it.

Photo IDs ought to be mandatory to vote. In IL you are required to have one to vote early at city hall but on election day no photo ID is needed at the regular polling place. This is Chicago where historically people are famous for voting many times.
Sanctuary cities and the motor voters act allow anyone to register to vote without any proof of residency. I have personally witnessed people who spoke NO english register to vote when I paid my state registration fee for my cars license plates.

Just because Democrat prosecuters and State's Attorneys are not prosecuting voter fraud, does not mean that it does not exost ans isn't rampant. Look at Eric Holder's refusal to prosecute Black Panthers that were waving guns in the faces of voters they didn't think would vote for Obama.

Same day registration is joke and is a open invitation for voter fraud with a smile and a wink.
College campus voting is the biggest fraud in the country. Social networks will and is changing everything and will cause millions of extra/multiple Dem votes and will turn a close election over to the libs because of multiple votes.
Already people who spend summers up north , and winters down south are proof of multiple voting.
Any town who has more people vote than are registered to vote ought to trigger a federal audit of the voting roles. Don't laugh because this does happen.
NOT state but a FEDERAL response because the state is not to be trusted.

It is disingenuous to claim the low rate of convictions for vote fraud is somehow proof the vote fraud is not rampant. Vote fraud is a crime that is easy to prevent but, given that we cast our ballots anonymously, practically impossible to prove after the damage has been done. Even if there is a conviction, the fraudulently cast vote is not deducted from a candidate's total.
Every fraudulent vote cast means somewhere a citizen who cast his vote legally has been disenfranchised.

"advanced planning will only further reduce turnout"
Excuse me, but if you can't plan in advance TO vote, I guess it follows that you also can't plan in advance how to vote. You know, things like understanding the issues, and the candidates' stand on them. In this case, no you shouldn't vote. That will only get us uninformed decisions and unqualified officials.

The bottom line is that the Democrat Party cannot win elections based upon its stale, failed ideology and warped view of reality. Therefore, it must rely on voter fraud. Therefore it must oppose even reasonable safeguards against voter fraud. Simple.
As to photo ID requirements, I've been ill lately and have had to show a photo ID every time I visit the doctor. This is ostensibly to protect against identity theft. The point is, if you need it for the doctor, travel etc, its not unreasonable to require it for voting.

Mr. Caldwell, I strongly disagree with you.
To vote in my state, I need only give my name and address. No ID required. What's to stop someone else coming in and stealing my vote?
I am required by law to carry a photo ID, as are my fellow state residents. However, any to require ID be shown to vote is met with stiff resistance. Why? If I'm required to carry photo ID, why shouldn't I be prepared to show it to vote?
Your comparison to Jim Crow laws is ludicrous and insults the memory of African-American who fought for franchise. In fact, there many people in American history have sacrificed much for the right to vote. The least we can do is not cheapen this right by inviting voter fraud.

I'm shocked, shocked to find politics going on here!
Whatever! There is no difference between the Repukes and the Demons . . . the Dem's have their Secretary of State project and have shown just as much willingness to change the rules to benefit themselves. Consider their changing the laws in Massachusetts where they first stripped the governor of the right to appoint senators to vacant US senate seats in 2004 (because the republican Romney might appoint a republican) and then changing it back in 2008 when Kennedy died (since by then they had a democrat governor).
Don't get me wrong. I hate the Repukes but I hate our stupid "Public Relations Theory as Politics" even more . . .

What is burdensome about requiring a photo ID? We can't drive a car without one. We can't travel outside of the country without a passport with photo ID. Most places won't allow you to use a credit card without photo ID. So what is the big deal? Regarding Florida preventing felons from voting, I for one think that losing your voting rights is a natural punishment (and fully justified) for violating the rights of others.

Libs like early voting and mail-in because they go to places like nursing homes and send in forged ballots, can vote the dead and illegals. It is no coincidence that states with lax laws are all "blue". Likewise, they hate IDs, even when free, because it hides the fake votes. Dems have specialized in voter fraud since the days of "Boss" Tweed. How about all those city precincts where over 100% voted, eh? ...and the elections in WA, MN, and similar places where recounts in close elections always seem to be won by Dems thanks to "newly discovered" votes. Remember, it was corrupt Chicago votes which elected JFK. All honest voters. Sure. And I need to be good or Santa Claus will give me coal in my stocking. Dem/Lib/Progressives = voter fraud.

Pfft. I live in Oregon. There are NO polling places. It's all done through the mail. You seriously think there isn't voter fraud going on in a state where you don't have to show a single piece of ID to cast a vote? I have neighbors that come to me and ask if I am going to send in my ballot and if not can they use it.

With the objections to various voter photo ID laws, they state that 28% of minorities do not have a state issued photo ID, so how are they verifying each entitlement recipient is collecting under only one name.
yes transiant population is inconvienced by haveing to reregister each time they move but what is stoping them from voting with there old address and new address on the same day.
we have the tecknolgy to deal with this but wont let it happen.
with modern secure internet why cant i go to a main polling place and cast a maryland ballot where my home is, and show on the maryland rolls that i voted.
the problem is no one checks that your not voting in more than one place.

Democratic "voter rights" bills are to elections what their "reproductive rights" bills are to unborn babies. They think by mislabeling legislation they can dupe voters into supporting their legislation.
The next thing you know they will propose a "jobs bill" that will actually simply expand govt, increase the deficit, and add to the ranks of over-paid and under-worked union employees. On second thought, even they wouldn't try that!

I work in construction here in Virginia, started 35 years ago with a shovel in hand as a laborer ,learned woodworking, now am a superintendent. In ALLmy time working with many African-Americans who were at base pay (as was I as a laborer) and would be classed below middle class Americans in pay , I never was friends with ,worker aside of ,or knew any who did not have some sort of I.D. to cash a payroll check on Friday. PLEASE SPARE US THE HARD SHIP JAZZ ,now if you want to say it takes a bit of forethought to register ahead of election day so be it , its too bad if some one not legal in the town or state cant vote, due to residency or lack of proper I.D. As a side note ,how do they cash their checks, get a rental to live in, by ciggies, or booze ....bet they have them to show then...wake up America!

This is typical Republican BS - I've got mine, you get yours. And if you can't get yours, it's your fault. There are already stories of senior citizens in several states who have voted for years, but who do not drive, and do not have photo ID's, being asked for their marriage certificates from 60 years before to prove who they are. Republicans may well steal this election just as they did in 2000, but they will regret it in the long run.

Ah yes, evil Texas, where, as you say " In Texas, for example, showing a military ID or a concealed-gun license will get you a ballot, but a college ID won't."
You've made a false equivalence. Military IDs and gun licenses are issued by the government. College ID are not. And in Texas, even illegals can into college and pay in-state tuition, in some states).
If anyone's voting rights are at risk, it's our oveseas military men and women, who don't get their ballots sent to them in time to be mailed back in violation of the law, so that they can be thrown out en masse by Democratic election officials. http://www.mvpproject.org/

It's not burdensome to the class of people who have credit cards, take planes, buy alcohol in liquor stores, buy cars, purchase auto
insurance, enter into any number of different contracts - buying house,
setting up a brokerage accounts, signing lease car/house, and receiving
registered letters. That's not the point. The point is that there is another class of people for whom this would be a great deterrent to voting, even though they are just as much citizens as you or me, and lack of concern by politicians will keep them from ever being able to join the class you described.

Actually I think it's much easier to consolidate power in the elite with the gimme process, encourage people to stay dumb and dependent and they won't be able to understand the long term consequences of their decisions. Casting a VoOte doesn't mean you took the time to understand the election, and speaking doesn't mean you have anything to say

Balance is important. It is not unreasonable to expect proof of citizenship to register to vote and picture ID to vote. It seems unreasonable to restrict early voting by VALID registered voters. The important issue is ensuring that only legal US citizens that are validly registered to vote in the appropriate district (only one district) can vote. If there is currently no problem with illegal voters, then this will not change the outcome of any election.

It's time that the left face the facts, conservatives are just smarter people. We know how get a photo ID card, we know how to register to vote, we know how to vote absentee, we know what day the election is, we know how to drive or take a bus to go vote, we know that our employers must give us time off to vote. Conservatives are just more intelligent, adaptable problem solvers. The left likes to hold itself out as the side of deep thinkers, intellectualism and of course...nuance. If they can't manage to do the things that conservatives do easily, who was it that told them they were so smart. I believe they made the same mistake so many bad politicians make. They started believing their own press.

People say there is little vote fraud -- but how would you know if you disallow any tools for even determining if it happens? Some crimes can only be prevented, and not fully measured or detected.
The new tighter rules may prevent some illegal forms of electioneering. People on the left have no problem with the IRS stripping the tax exemption from a conservative church whose minister tells his congregation to vote Republican.
But Sunday early voting was used by black churches to fire up the whole congregation to vote Democratic, and then promptly bus them all, including many who were otherwise not motivated to vote, to the polls, to vote for whoever was listed on the Democratic line. Why is there a duty to underwrite this illegal electioneering?

1) The photo ID argument is just plain stupid. Others have listed the many mundane daily transaction that require a photo ID, so I will just point out that a great many democratic countries mandate an ID card for all adults.
2) The argument based on the limited number of documented cases is a sort of circular logic – if you write vague, loose and ineffective fraud regulations, you will – of course – rarely be able to prove that fraud occurred. That is why the new laws are needed.
3) Nobody should be voting 35 days before an election. Too much can happen that you should consider.
4) What does it say about Democrats that they are counting on the felon vote?

Heel spurs are small, bony growths on the heel. A spur may develop
when the ligament that connects the heel bone to the bones in the toes (plantar
fascia) becomes inflamed.
A person with a heel spur may not be aware of any symptoms. If
symptoms are present, they may include:
But symptoms in the heel are most often caused by inflammation
rather than by the spur itself.
A heel spur can be diagnosed by looking at an X-ray. In most cases
the spur is not the main cause of the heel pain, so the spur is typically left
alone and the cause of the heel pain is treated. For instance, a painful and
inflamed tendon near the spur (plantar fasciitis) may need treatment. If a spur
is found to be the main cause of the heel pain, surgery or injections may be

It's sweet and spicy at the same time, and it works well on both veggies and fruit. It's easy to make and also tastes great. Try it as a dip for a snack or as a sauce for a wrap.
2 tablespoon raw almond butter
½ tablespoon agave nectar
½ small lime, juiced
1 pinch sea salt
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Mix all ingredients, adjusting measurements to suit your personal tastes. No special equipment is necessary. Enjoy it as a dip for veggies or fruit. I prefer it on carrots, sugar snap peas and apples.
The sauce also tastes great on a collard green wrap filled with greens, avocado slices, shredded carrot, sliced portabello mushrooms and broccoli sprouts.

Georgia's Pro Bono Month: Focus on Providing Legal Services
Monday, October 18, 2010
- Organization: State Bar of Georgia
- Link: http://www.georgiaadvocates.org
Members of the State Bar of Georgia are putting the focus on providing legal services to those who cannot afford to pay by participating in a number of pro bono-themed events across Georgia. The pro bono activities are part of the National Pro Bono Celebration scheduled for Oct. 24-30.
The National Pro Bono Celebration focuses attention to the legal work lawyers do in their communities to improve the lives of their friends and neighbors. According to a study released in February 2009, nearly three quarters of lawyers in the United States report doing pro bono work. "We believe the American Bar Association (ABA) recommendation that each lawyer performs a minimum of 50 hours of pro bono service each year allows the legal community to support the greater community," said Mark Schickman, chair of the ABA Standing Committee on Pro Bono and Public Service.
"The pro bono events in Georgia, however, are being held throughout the month of October, not just the last week of the month," said Mike Monahan, director of the State Bar of Georgia Pro Bono Project. "We're a large state with an active legal community, and you can't fit everything into one week!"
The pro bono activities vary throughout the state. For example, in north Georgia, the Dalton Regional Office of Georgia Legal Services Program is hosting an open house and reception for dozens of its volunteer lawyers and friends. The Atlanta Bar Association is sponsoring its annual Pro Bono Fair and Luncheon and the Columbus Bar Association is presenting pro bono awards during its October lunch meeting.
The State Bar of Georgia Pro Bono Project is hosting webinars that highlight pro bono opportunities during the Pro Bono Celebration week.
A complete list of events can be found on Georgia's statewide volunteer lawyer and advocate support website, GeorgiaAdvocates.org.
In support of the national Pro Bono Celebration, the State Bar of Georgia, along with its Young Lawyers Division (YLD), has issued a resolution urging bar members to reflect on the call to provide access to the courts for Georgians with critical legal needs who cannot afford a lawyer and to join or sponsor a pro bono event during the celebration week.
"A recent study sanctioned by the Supreme Court of Georgia's Committee on Civil Justice revealed that each year, more than 60 percent low- and moderate-income households in our state have at least one need for civil legal services," said State Bar President Lester Tate. "In the current economic climate, we have an even greater need for Georgia attorneys to volunteer and provide pro bono or reduced-rate legal services to our fellow citizens."
YLD President Michael Geoffroy said, "Too often, Georgians experiencing financial and other problems never make it through the courthouse door. They are either unaware of the laws that exist to help them in such situations, unable to afford legal assistance, or both. Programs such as the annual Pro Bono Celebration help inform the public about the programs and volunteer services provided by Georgia lawyers."
"I am so proud of the generosity, commitment and imagination expressed by the attorneys in this state as they devised creative ways to highlight the need for pro bono service, as well as its extraordinary benefits," said Chief Justice Carol W. Hunstein of the Supreme Court of Georgia. "I encourage everyone in the legal community to find ways to contribute their skills and expertise to people who would not otherwise be able to afford them."
For more information on the Pro Bono Project co-sponsored by the Georgia Legal Services Program and the State Bar of Georgia, please contact Director Michael L. Monahan at 404-527-8762 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

The CPI(M) is yet to decide on its candidate for the prestigious Ernakulam seat.
The three by-polls were necessitated due to resignation of sitting Congress members -- KV Thomas (Ernakulam), K C Venugopal (Alappuzha) and K Sudhakaran (Kannur) -- consequent to their election to the Lok Sabha.
Jayarajan's candidature was finalised by CPI(M) district secretariat on Friday. The CPI state executive which met here on Saturday chose Krishnaprasad for the Alappuzha seat.
The CPI(M) sources said former Kochi mayor K Balachandran was among front runners for the Ernakulam seat.

Installing Builder
Posted 18 December 2013 - 10:09 AM
over a year ago I purchased the Builder Foundation pack with the idea to build my website but I haven't been able to start until now. Although the Theme's files are no longer in my members' area since more than one year has passed, I had downloaded them, and have them in my computer for instalation. Now that I am finally going to create my website, I have a doubt on whether or not the use of these files is still ok or I should think on purchasing the newest version. Also, I've seen in the zip folders that there is one that says "builder" and another one that says "builder-2_8 files", and I don't know which is the one I should be downloading into Wordpress for instalation.
Continuing with my quetions about the files I downloaded, there are other folders:
- billboard
-ithemes feedburner widget
- mobile
- rotating images
Could you please tell me what these are?
Thank you very much.

JAMESTOWN— With first place on the line, the Greeneview Lady Rams put their stamp on the top of the Ohio Heritage Conference standings.
Greeneview (12-2, 8-0 OHC) hosted the South Charleston Southeastern Trojans (10-3, 6-1 OHC) and sent the once-hopeful conquerers back home defeated by earning a 53-27 victory Thursday night.
The battle to become the OHC's top team looked as if it was going to be a dog fight, as the two teams came out aggressively in front of a raucous Greeneview crowd.
The first quarter witnessed four lead changes, and Greeneview led 9-8 at the end of the period.
The score would never be that close again.
The Rams capitalized off Southeastern's shooting woes in the second quarter and built a 23-11 lead at halftime.
Southeastern's shooting touch faded in the second quarter and the Trojans managed just one basket (a 3-pointer) in the period.
While trailing by double-digits halfway through the third, the Trojans caught a break after the Rams' leading scorer, Ashton Lovely, was whistled for a technical foul.
Still, with Greeneview's best player on the bench with four fouls, Southeastern couldn't seize any momentum, as the Rams showed no letdown.
Greeneview coach Gregg Haines was proud of the way his squad played with Lovely on the bench, as the Rams were led by the inside presence of Sophie Sonneman and the shooting of Kristen Combs.
"I was real proud of the girls. That's something in the past that's been an issue," he said. "The heart and fight of this team showed tonight. Everybody stepped up and it was huge."
Sonneman scored 13 points and grabbed 19 points, and gave the Rams an inside presence that Southeastern couldn't match.
Sonneman said it felt good to have a great game on a big stage, as she surpassed her previous total of 15 rebounds in a game.
"It feels really good … It was important (that) I at least try and make my shots and do good for the team and myself," she said.
Combs led the Rams in scoring and scored 12 of her 18 points in the second half. Lovely added nine to the stat sheet.
Lex Perry led the Trojans with 12.
While first place presently belongs to the Rams, Haines believes his squad has yet to play its best basketball.
"I think we have some moments where we are very complacent and we can take things for granted," he said. "We've been harping on it … We've got to fight no matter what and forget the score. You've got to make yourself better and be the best you can be and that's what I hope we start doing. We have some work to do, but we're moving in the right direction."

Re: Do you wear a life jacket?
I have a non inflatable west marine sitting in the locker in case I get an inspection.
What got me thinking about it was when my friend was sailing with me the last three weeks, when the wind started to blow, she asked for a life jacket. So I started thinking, because she couldn't steer well, if I fell, I don't think she would know what to do to come back and get me, but she could call for help. If I'm by myself, I would probably fall off because the weather is rough, and I doubt there are enough boats around to see me anyways. Better to tether and not fall at all.
I do have lifelines and a toe rail though.
Let's pretend I was breing captain badass for a while. Sailing solo to Alaska or something. Are jacklines necessary on a small boat or can you just clip and unclip a 6 foot tether like the WM one mentioned above to the bars that come out of the bottom of the stantions?

To my knowledge ,the owners of this hotel have at least two others. i have booked with them twice and both times When i arrived at the booked hotel i was told there is a problem with the room I booked but they have made arrangements for me to stay in one of their sister hotels. On both occasions I was sent to another hotel . On arrival at the sister hotel (now to late to find alternative accomodation). the room I was allocated was nowhere near the description of the one I booked. good scam.

Houston captures Collierville volleyball tournament
Mustangs top Nashville's Harpeth Hall
As the only local representative in the semifinals of the Collerville Kickoff volleyball tournament Saturday, Houston may have been outnumbered. But the Mustangs certainly weren't outgunned.
Houston, which entered the tournament ranked second behind St. Agnes in The Commercial Appeal's Super Six, will almost certainly climb into the top spot after their performance this weekend, which was capped off by a 25-18, 25-20 victory over Nashville Harpeth Hall in the title match.
"I'm very proud of them," said Mustangs coach Becky Pendleton, whose team improved to 12-2 after the victory.
"This is probably the best group I've ever had in terms of playing together as a team. We have no individual stars, that's what makes us so good. Nobody's worried about playing time or she's getting more sets than I am. It's just a well-rounded group."
Houston needed that all-for-one attitude as it battled its way into the championship match after finishing second in its pool. Earlier Saturday, Houston avenged an early loss in the tournament by eliminating Hoover-Ala.
"We just had to push ourselves," said senior middle blocker Sarah Richardson, who has verbally committed to play at Rutgers next season. "It was a challenge for us to overcome that mentally because we had lost to them earlier."
Said Pendleton, "Beating Hoover was a big confidence booster. That told us, 'now we can do it.'"
Houston kept the momentum going in the semifinals by posting a 25-20, 25-20 victory over a Murfreesboro Siegel team which hadn't dropped a set in the tournament prior to meeting the Mustangs.
There was no drop-off in the final as they took control early against Harpeth Hall, which had advanced after eliminating Battle Ground Academy. And, as Pendleton noted, everyone contributed.
Richardson, her younger sister Emily, Charlotte Thompson and Rachel Belisle were all strong at the net while senior Marisa Wong scored several points with cleverly-placed finesse shots.
"Honestly, we just made fewer errors than they did," said Pendleton. "We kept the ball in play and we let them make the mistakes."

text: It is almost 2 weeks since i have posted above query. Lot happened since than.... few nights in darkroom... lots of precious paper burnt for a good cause. The results are quite disappointing. Forte polygrade V paper's contrast range does not go beyond Grade 2 on my Durst M605 enlarger with colour head. This is a real problem as i print most of my negatives in the range of 2.5 to 3. Ilford MG4 FB barely goes up to grade 3. I am not able to figure out what i am doing wrong. Is there a chance that enlarger dichroic filters faded in my 10 years old enlarger? if this is the case can these filters be changed?

(Jean Miro, Dancer, 1925. Oil on canvas. 115.5cm x 88.5cm)
So what do you think of that, then?
Labels: Art
It's got an unusual balance that appeals to me, and I like the blue - it achieves the desired contrast between the background and the heart without being to dark and gloomy.
Would have preferred the dancer to be nude though.
no sir, i don't like it.
Not sure if the artist intended to have this effect, but it made me laugh out loud.
I am a huge Miró fan - have had the lucky privilege of seeing two exhibitions of his work, I can honestly say that few painters have impacted me to the extent that Miró has. There is something quite powerful in his painting - giant, dark, shimmering fields of colour, populated with esoteric characters. More than many other painters, Miró's work hints at untold stories, and a whole deal of the pleasure of his work is in this implied narrative.
Two thumbs up.
Its rubbish. Wouldn't be worth printing on a tea towel.
Well I'll tell you what happened.
I had a look yesterday from the live bookmark and, probably because of the title, I'd confused Miro with someone else and vaguely expected a more literal sketch.
And I keep my screen at a resolution where the whole thing doesn't fit an I had to scroll down.
So it was in those senses a surprise and a revelation respectively. And a very pleasant one.
Doesn't resonate with me...might make a nice wall paper pattern for a child's bedroom, no?
I think it's beautiful!
....where is the dancer?

Video In/Out
I was woundering how i go about using tv in and out on my ge-force3 gts. I have downloaded xawtv and installed xawtv but am getting errors when i try and run it.
This is xawtv-3.76, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.18)
WARNING: Your X-Server has no DGA support.
can't open /dev/video0: No such file or directory
v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway
v4l2: open /dev/video0: No such file or directory
v4l: open /dev/video0: No such file or directory
no video grabber device available
I have tryed adding the -c option and changing the device to the following:
/dev/nvidia0 - wrong device
/dev/nvidia1 - Segmentation fault
/dev/nvidia2 - Segmentation fault
/dev/nvidia3 - Segmentation fault
Im sure that there is just some crappy thing i haven't configured. I have tryed running as root so i know there isn't any permission problems.
The first thing you need to use something like TVin are Tvin drivers. When you have those drivers you get things like /dev/video0 which are mapped to the actual hardware.
To get those tvin drivers look at http://rivatv.sf.net

The Science of Search Engines
By editor
The Science of Search Engines Most of us use search engines every day without knowing how they work or that they are watching our search behaviors. The science of search engines has led to the discovery of a form of bias in their function. A local entrepreneur who understands this science has invented a new way to search and a search engine that caters to African Americans called RushmoreDrive.com. We'll meet him and other search engine experts. Guests Johnny C. Taylor - President and CEO, RushmoreDrive.com Bob Gebert - Vice President of Technology, RushmoreDrive.com David Levine - Assistant Professor, Charlotte School of Law Contact the show: 704-926-9323, 800-603-9323, firstname.lastname@example.com or Charlotte Blogs.
