Publisher's Description
Dr. Charles Stanley's new series of Bible study guides feature insights and wisdom of this beloved pastor and author. Small groups and individuals who want a Bible study that's spiritually sound and practical will find a wealth of ideas to help them understand and apply the Scriptures to the real world. Each title takes a unique fourfold approach to get the most out of Bible study time - emphasizing personal identification with the Scripture passage, recognition of your emotional response, reflection of the passage's meaning and application, and taking steps to apply what's been learned. This is a sound way to explore the Word of God.
Author Bio
Dr. Charles Stanley is senior pastor of First Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia. He is the author of numerous books, including The Blessings of Brokenness and other titles in the popular A Touch of His . . . devotional series. His popular radio and TV program In Touch is heard and seen worldwide.
Product Reviews
Kathryn Johnson5 Stars Out Of 5December 6, 2009Kathryn JohnsonI had the privilege to lead & teach this study with the women's Bible study at my church this fall, 2009. It was wonderful. It dealt with the difficult and challenging situations that are and will be in our lives in a very positive way. Always pointing to God, His attributes, and how to grow closer to Him in faith through our adversity. The study leads to not only to advancing through adversity but to a growing intimacy with our Lord.
Mary Longoria3 Stars Out Of 5February 4, 2009Mary LongoriaNot sure yet, I'm studying this for a class of teens. Getting ready for the college world, work world.
Fred Marlow5 Stars Out Of 5January 21, 2009Fred MarlowI was looking for a daily study guide. This workbook does not have a daily study. The lessons can be done in about 1 hr each on my own. I am thinking of combining this study with "Our Daily Bread" to complete a mens study group. The material in this book is excellent.

My wife whipped up a batch of this stuff on a busy weeknight, and after a few bites we both agreed that this is a little casserole that fires on all cylinders. Maybe it's the charming simplicity...
This was really good. I followed the recipe but added cheddar cheese and mixed veggies.

Sorry, I'm a newbie when it comes to HTML and CSS but I would think the default would be 1 for line spacing. For example, the exact same HTML appears with 1-line spacing when I use the Widgetizer.

Blake Scott Jewels founder Michelle Siegel launched her stunning fine jewelry line after traveling to India and falling in love with the design motifs she encountered. Blake Scott represents the melding of Siegel's personal modern style with her reverence for Indian styles and traditions. Rose-cut diamonds, glittering rubies, polished turquoise, and other precious gemstones are set in oxidized sterling silver or gold and evoke an extravagant sultriness worthy of the ancient Indian cultures that inspired them. Shimmering hematite on a macramé bracelet, brown diamonds on a twisted leather necklace, shoulder-grazing chandelier earrings dressed in rustic apatite: Each Blake Scott piece is as exotic as the materials used to create it.
Breeze through the season in flattering sheaths, maxis, and more
Shine bright in gemstone drops, statement rings, and more star-quality pieces
Deck yourself out in darkly alluring stunners.
Play up the shine with pendants, cuffs, and more bright stunners.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by CeeCee PERFECTO I ordered the Sienna color. It was the last Small. I can't believe that I originally did not see or notice this top because it is absolutely awesome and fits so nice. Free People...please bring back this top in other colors because I will definitely buy more. The way this top fits makes you look skinny because of that V shape overlap on the front and the back. This shape is the "trick of the eye" which makes you look slim. Add a skinny jean or pant and tall shoes and you will definitely look slim :) I love the beaded tassel embellishment on the straps which can move up and down on the straps depending on how you want to wear it. What a unique touch! That's why I love FP so much, THEY'RE CLOTHING IS SO UNIQUE! 5.8.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Nuraluralura New Favorite! This top is beautiful and incredibly flattering. I got it in black and would love to have it in more colors. Looks great out or tucked in to a skirt! Perfect to dress up or down. New favorite. 4.9.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by AshLynn Beautiful and Soft I purchased this as soon as I saw it under "What's New." I am SO happy I did! It flows so nice on the body, and it's not baggy or oversized at all! It's super soft. I love the beading on the tie. For reference, I am 5'6, 115, 32A and the XS fit awesome! 4.8.2013

Yes you are. You are not allowed to smoke on the boardwalk or beach except within 15 feet of the orange smoking barrels on the sand. Some hotels and restaurants prohibit it as well. But smoking in your car is permitted.

That's a tough question to answer.... my thought would be that there will be private lots offering parking for some kind of flat rate.... what those rates will be I have no idea. If I were you, I'd get to town early so you can find parking, and leave your car sit all day, or however long you choose to be in town...... it's going to be busy.... Memorial Day weekend was record breaking in many ways, so I'd get to town, get situated where you'd like to spend the day, and leave your car sit.

Hi Josh,
You should not have any issues being on the beach with a little one in that area. The beach is wider in that area so you should not feel too crowded. As for the crowds, that area is well patrolled and policed. You also have the benefit of restaurants, shops and bathrooms close by. I recommend getting to the beach early so you can get a spot close to the ocean though. I recommend not driving as much as possible that weekend, as OC is very busy on the 4th.
There are plenty of places to watch Fireworks on that side of the bay........ I would suggest you look up Homer Gudelsky Park (what we call Stinky Beach)...... you'll be able to see the N. Division Street Fireworks up over the buildings.
Hello Tracey,
She would be welcome to ride her skateboard on the boardwalk using the same time periods that bikes are allowed.... that's till 11AM......She could check out the Ocean Bowl Skate Park 3rd Street and St. Louis Avenue

Hello Lee,
About the only information I can provide is a link to Greyhound's website.... I searched Greyhound New York, New York to Ocean City, Maryland http://locations.greyhound.com/bus-routes/destination/new-york-ny/ocean-city-md
When you're in Ocean City, you'll find that the town has a very strong public transportation network..... the town has a bus service that runs quickly and efficiently and only costs $3.00 per day to ride all day. Lots of Taxi services too..... and bike/scooter rentals, so you'll be in good shape once you get to town.

Kill Billie: Vol. 2
Trivia, Quotes, Notes and Allusions
Quotes (11)
Christy: Where did everyone go? Billie: Oh, I sent them home. I-I thought they'll be safer away from us. Christy: But we might need their help. The sisters… Billie: …are gonna come after us. I know. But it's not the magical community's fight, it's ours. "It's our Destiny!" Christy: Here we go again. Billie: No, don't worry. I know it's the right thing, and it's all for the greater good, but it doesn't mean I have to like it.
(In Victor's apartement, talking about Phoebe) Coop: Nobody will ever love your daughter more than me, ever. I promise you that. Victor: What do you know about love? Coop: I'm a Cupid! Victor: Well that doesn't mean squat unless you've had your heart broken. Have you had your heart broken? Coop: No. Victor: Then you don't know about love, believe me.
Piper: I knew we shouldn't have trusted you. Christy: You should have trusted your instincts. Piper: Next time. Billie: There won't be a next time.
(Billie's bandaging Christy's wound) Billie: Too bad we're trying to kill Paige, otherwise she could've healed you.
Billie: We've been waiting for you. Paige: Well the wait is over.
Angel of Destiny: The battle is over... but not as I expected.
Phoebe: Okay, we can't keep playing Survivor: Underworld much longer.
(Wyatt and Victor are playing the board game Candyland) Victor: Unless you draw a double red, you don't stand a chance, my man. Go ahead. Pick that card. (Wyatt draws a blue card and Victor laughs. Suddenly, it orbs and changes to a double red) Hey! That's cheating! Wyatt (giggling): It wasn't me. It was Chris. Victor: No way! He doesn't have any powers yet. Wyatt: Yes he does. (Baby Chris laughs, in his playpen)
Notes (2)
When the manor was blown up there was a tribute to the grandfather clock, the spirit bourd, and the picture of the sisters.
On it's original airdate this episode got 3.7 million viewers.
Trivia (23)
After the Manor blows up Piper finds Phoebe dead and holds her until Leo comes back. She hears someone, thinks it's Paige but finds out it's Billie. After the whole fight she doesn't even look for Paige to see if she's alive. If Piper and Billie are alive then why didn't she even look for Paige?
TRIVIA: During Season 8, 89 demons, 2 darklighters, 1 wizard and 1 evil witch are vanquished, making a total of 93 evil beings. For the second season in a row, only a minority (38) are vanquished by the Charmed Ones. As to the rest, Billie and Christy kill 27, while 25 are killed by other demons, 2 die of a virus and 1 is vanquished by students from Magic School.
TRIVIA: This is the last of 17 episodes to feature the name of a main character in the title. There are four with Phoebe, three with Leo, two with Piper, two with Billie and one each with Prue, Paige, Cole, Chris, Wyatt and Christy. There are also four episodes featuring the name Halliwell.
Despite having been frozen for the last six months, Leo has somehow found time to get his hair cut.
At the end of the previous episode, Gone with the Witches, Paige orbed all three of the sisters into the Underworld, stating that she was aiming for Magic School but they must've shielded it from them. Yet in this episode, The Charmed Ones easily orb into Magic School to vanquish the triad. Also, why aim for Magic School and not Phoebe's apartment?
Billie says Phoebe mentioned the Charmed Ones were under a spell during the events of the previous episode. The problem is, it's not Phoebe who said it in the last episode, it was Piper.
TRIVIA: This episode marks the first time that Wyatt has spoken in several complete sentences. Previously, his character has only spoken on occasion in a few words and once in a short sentence.
The Triad chamber was shown to be in Magic School in the previous episode. However, from this episode, for an unknown reason, what is seen beyond the door went from a hallway in Magic School to a completely blank white background.
Allusions (3)
The Halliwell sisters fly through the stain glass windows on the side of the Manor. When the potions explode during the first battle with Christy and Billie, the Halliwell sisters go flying through the stain glass windows referencing the same result in the battles with Shax in the season three finale, All Hell Breaks Loose.
Piper: Okay, we can't keep playing Survivor: Underworld much longer.
This is a reference to the TV reality series Survivor that takes place in different countries every season.
Title: Kill Billie, Vol. 2
This is a reference to the 2004 film "Kill Bill, Vol. 2", starring Uma Thurman and directed by Quentin Tarantino. It's also a reference to an episode from earlier this season called "Kill Billie Vol. 1".

Limitations of Point-Source Sub-Woofer Array Models for Live Sound
This paper examines the validity of applying simple models to the kind of highly configurable, low frequency arrays typically used for live sound. Measurements were performed on a single full-sized touring sub-woofer array element at different positions within a number of different array configurations. It was discovered that radiation was rarely omnidirectional and in some cases more than 20 dB from being so. Additionally, the in-situ polar response significantly differed from that obtained with the cabinet in isolation, the degree of difference (2–10 dB) was strongly dependent on array type and element position. For compact arrays we demonstrate, via the application of the "acoustic center" concept, that even when elemental radiation approaches omnidirectional behavior some array configurations are particularly susceptible to errors arising from commonly applied assumptions.

2011 Directed by Kevin Macdonald
In 140 AD, twenty years after the unexplained disappearance of the entire Ninth Legion in the mountains of Scotland, young centurion Marcus Aquila (Tatum) arrives from Rome to solve the mystery and restore the reputation of his father, the commander of the Ninth. Accompanied only by his British slave Esca (Bell), Marcus sets out across Hadrian's Wall into the uncharted highlands of Caledonia - to confront its savage tribes, make peace with his father's memory, and retrieve the lost legion's golden emblem, the Eagle of the Ninth.
A small-scale historical epic, "The Eagle" boasts handsome production design and lush cinematography. It does not have the sweep, scope, or gloriousness of "Braveheart," "Gladiator," or even "King Arthur," but the film is highly watchable, thematically rich, and it tells a nicely compact story.
I can well imagine many people feeling short changed by the end of The Eagle, because the marketing would have you think this is a bloody, battle-strewn Roman epic of two warriors fighting to the death. Yet look at the director - is Kevin MacDonald really likely to make such a film? Turns out he hasn't at all, the fleeting few battles we do get merely a component of what in reality is a drama about honour, bravery, loss and imperialism with very on-the-nose parallels to the United States. It makes for a deeper, if not quite as entertaining movie than you hoped.
It's immediately let down a touch by the fact it has two of the least-inspiring young actors…
Kevin McDonald has made some really interesting films over the last few years. He does lean towards his Scottish roots though and this take on the legendary Roman Ninth Legion who apparently disappeared North of Hadrian's Wall back in 120AD is another with a Scottish slant.
"The Eagle" standard of the Ninth Roman Legion was something that was bitterly defended and was a symbol of the legion's pride and honor. This tale is based on a book from the fifties that supported the legend that "the Eagle" was lost in the North of Scotland along with the entire 5000 troops who accompanied it. Many theories exist as to the true fate of the legion, but with this film popularizing the…
This movie was better than I expected, and Channing Tatum was also better than I thought! ; )
¨How can a piece of metal mean so much to you? -The eagle is not a piece of metal. The eagle is Rome.¨
The Eagle is based on a historical novel written by Rosemary Sutcliff called The Eagle of the Ninth (1954). It`s a fiction adventure novel, but it is based on some true facts (The Ninth Legion really did disappear around the 2nd Century and the Wall of Hadrian was built to protect the Romans from the Scottish tribes). Director Kevin Macdonald brings this novel to the big screen, and in my opinion it is one of his weakest films to date. I really enjoyed his previous two films: State of Play and The Last King of Scotland, but…
Despite a good director and a story full of potential the end result is both bloodless and lifeless. Much like Neil Marshall's flawed Centurion it seems as if film-makers are drawn to the mystery of the Ninth Legion but are unable to turn that mystery into a compelling story on screen. Although handsomely shot, particularly when capturing the beauty and harshness of the Scottish landscape, the cinematography cannot disguise a leaden script and wooden performances. The film feels as if it was intended to be a much grander film that what we ended up with. Instead we get a small scale movie that never springs into life. It doesn't help that the cast are poor. Channing Tatum delivers yet another…
Disappointing stuff. The storyline is a good opportunity for some old fashioned swordplay and adventure but the script wants to have its' cake and eat it too - there's an attempt at joylesss accuracy which means when the film does lapse into Technicolor cheese it feels contrived. An awful lead performance from a bored Channing Tatum hardly helps.
Excellent film, balançant entre historisme, action et combats épiques.
Oh god, 100% guilty pleasure cinema. As a fan of movies, I'm pretty embarrassed to admit how much I enjoyed this. At least I'm not a snob?
A captivating adventure!
The story of the legendary IX Roman Legion who disappeared in ancient Scotland in 140 AD.
Whilst it showed initial promise the resulting movie becomes a contrived escape film.
Cool stuff.
Would have been good but Channing Tatum ruined the whole movie.
The sort-of sequel to Centurion. Solid cast, but nothing special.
Just a middle of the road fairly unrealistic story that fails to enthuse. And shaky cam fight scenes that are completely worthless. Its not gonna be a blue ray buy thats for sure.

AFVC 16s Sweep Through Carolinas Region Tournament
Greensboro College — The AFVC 16s brought a disappointing 7-12 overall match record to the Carolinas Region tournament at Greensboro College's Reynolds Center, and left, after winning five matches in a row and dropping only one set, with a 12-12 record and championship medal.
The girls began their sweep with an impressive victory over the host squad from Piedmont Volleyball Club 2-0. With an aggressive offense that seemed to attack at every opportunity, the 16s rolled through NC Elite, and then defeated Cape Fear Volleyball Club in three sets to win their pool.
Having a bye in the first round of the playoffs, the girls faced in the semi-finals the LAVA Flames, a team that defeated them 2-1 the weekend prior in Roanoke at the Shamrock Festival. Revenge was sweet as the AFVC 16s trounced the Flames 2-0 to move onto the championship finals.
AFVC met another undefeated team from Topsail, who narrowly defeated Piedmont Volleyball in three sets in their semi-final match. The 16s continued to roll with accurate serving, hustling defense, and pinpoint accuracy from hitters Allison Allred and Tara McNeil, to finish the sweep at 2-0. Hitters Alayna West and Cassidy Andrews also contributed to the offensive attack. It was an overall complete performance by the entire team. Tara McNiel was named Most Outstanding Player of the tournament.
This is the 16s first tournament championship in 2015.
AFVC 16s Open Tournament Season Strong in Greensboro
Greensboro, NC — January 3, 2015
The Alamance Force 16s started off the club tournament season by placing 2nd at the Carolina Region Tournament held at the Greensboro Sportsplex in Greensboro. The girls started off strong, going undefeated in their first three matches in pool play. In the first round of the playoffs, they won a tough match to advance to the championship round, but lost a hard fought match in the final.
AFVC 14's Team
Congrats to the AFVC 14's team who have started their season strong. The 14's team has qualified for the playoffs in each of their first two tournaments.

February 15, 2009 3:01 by Aarti Nagraj
The CEO of the Mashreq Group, his bank recently announced net profits of AED1.64 billion for 2008, down by 13.6 percent compared to the previous year. The bank reported an operating income of almost AED4 billion for the year, a 3.5 per cent increase over 2007; however, earlier this month, the company laid off 4 percent of its workforce, around 175 people, because of "reduced market activity."
Mashreq bank was founded by Abdullah Al Ghurair, its chairman and Abdul Aziz Al Ghurair's father. An industrial engineer, Al Ghurair (junior) joined the bank in 1977, and helped open branches in New York, London, Bahrain, India and Pakistan. He was appointed executive director in 1989 and became CEO the following year.
Apart from Mashreq, Al Ghurair has a long list of other positions; he was elected the speaker of the UAE's Federal National Council in 2007, is president of the Abdulla Al Ghurair Group, serves as vice-chairman and board member of the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), and sits on the Board of Emirates Foundation and Dubai Economic Council. Al Ghurair is also chairman of Masafi, RAK petroleum and the Endowment Fund, and is a member of the Governing Council of the UAE Higher Colleges of Technology and member of the Constitutive Council for GCC Leaders.

This is important for LGBTQ people who have been persecuted by the church in Jesus name. This is important for Church goers who think that the SCOTUS ruling is persecution against them (it is not). We have to remember that God sees and cares about all of us - especially those who are wounded. Being hurt doesn't give us the due cause to be unkind. I hope we can remember that God really does love us all and be reminders to one another of that Love. I'll write more on this later but I hope everyone has an amazing Sunday today!heydarren240Great night with good friends! #BroadwayInChicagoheydarren390

Artist Li Hongbo, whose flexible paper sculptures we've admired many times here on Colossal, recently created a new series of silhouette artworks as part of a solo show at Contemporary by Angela Li in Hong Kong. Each piece is delicately cut from the knife leaving a complementary negative space from which it appears to rise. Hongbo says the pieces are meant as a warning, that "human beings will eventually destroy themselves because of their gluttony and their abuse of animals." You can see more from the series here. If you liked this technique, also check out paper sculptures by Peter Callesen. (via My Amp Goes to 11)

Program "testability" is informally, the probability that a program will fail under test if it contains at least one fault. When a dependability assessment has to be derived from the observation of a series of failure free test executions (a common need for software subject to "ultra high reliability" requirements), measures of testability can-in theory-be used to draw inferences on program correctness. We rigorously investigate the concept of testability and its use in dependability assessment, criticizing, and improving on, previously published results. We give a general descriptive model of program execution and testing, on which the different measures of interest can be defined. We propose a more precise definition of program testability than that given by other authors, and discuss how to increase testing effectiveness without impairing program reliability in operation. We then study the mathematics of using testability to estimate, from test results: the probability of program correctness and the probability of failures. To derive the probability of program correctness, we use a Bayesian inference procedure and argue that this is more useful than deriving a classical "confidence level". We also show that a high testability is not an unconditionally desirable property for a program. In particular, for programs complex enough that they are unlikely to be completely fault free, increasing testability may produce a program which will be less trustworthy, even after successful testing

Chr. Hansen Drops After Lowering This Year's Growth Forecast
July 3 (Bloomberg) -- Chr. Hansen A/S, the world's biggest maker of dairy enzymes, dropped the most since its 2010 initial stock sale after cutting its full-year sales forecast on lower prices for the red pigment carmine.
Sales will probably rise 6 percent to 7 percent on a like-for-like basis, down from an earlier targeted range of 7 percent to 9 percent, the Hoersholm, Denmark-based company said in a statement today. Third-quarter profit of 34.9 million euros ($45 million) fell short of the 37.8 million-euro average of eight analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Shares of the maker of enzymes that create the holes in emmental cheese fell as much as 7.8 percent, the steepest intraday decline since the stock began trading in June 2010. Weaker demand of probiotics for yogurt in North America and Europe also stifled growth. A large customer in South America switching to a synthetic alternative to Chr. Hansen's natural coloring will weigh on fourth-quarter sales, the company said.
"We don't like to disappoint the market, but Chr. Hansen has never been a company with a straight line of growth from quarter to quarter," Chief Financial Officer Klaus Pedersen said in an interview today. Sales increased 9.9 percent in the past fiscal year and 15 percent in the year prior. "Most companies would envy our growth."
Probiotic Clampdown
The company is also feeling the effects from a clampdown by the European Food Safety Authority on the health claims of probiotics in yogurt, which account for almost 20 percent of sales at Chr. Hansen's cultures and enzymes division.
Since December, references to probiotic benefits are no longer allowed on yogurt labels in Europe, though food manufacturers are still keen to differentiate their products to maintain higher prices, Chief Executive Officer Cees de Jong said. Revenue at the cultures and enzymes unit grew 7 percent in the third quarter, sustained by "healthy growth" in Asia Pacific and South America.
The company doesn't currently see a risk that other regions will adopt the same stance as Europe, Pedersen said.
"This is really a European theme," de Jong said. "We would consider dealings with EFSA as a bump in the road, and it's not the end of probiotics."
De Jong, who took the helm in April, is reorganizing the company into three geographic regions to improve sales to strengthen the focus on customers and "move regional commercial decision-making and corporate leadership closer."
Chr. Hansen traded 4.9 percent lower at 190.9 kroner in Copenhagen trading as of 1:02 p.m. local time.

Hi guys,
As you can see on my website: www.kalender-verhuur.nl
The text color of the navbar (fixed) is white, so is the navbar itself. Therefore the text is invisble. Only when you do something like CTRL+A, you can see the text.
I tried multiple ways to change the navbar text color but unfortunately it didn't work. Can someone please help me to get the text in the color I want, preferably black please.

WASHINGTON--In the flurry of new books on the Nixon tapes, another allegation worse than Watergate against the late president has been revisited by a researcher at the Miller Center of the University of Virginia, reviving charges of a possible treasonous act by Richard Nixon during the Vietnam war.
Ken Hughes, in "Chasing Shadows: The Nixon Tapes, the Chennault Affair and the Origins of Watergate," makes the case that a planned break-in of the Brookings Institution in Washington, which Nixon urged as a blatant "thievery," sought to find and get rid of such evidence.
In mid-June, 1971, Nixon told his chief of staff, Bob Haldeman, to "implement on a thievery basis" a shelved plan of young aide Tom Charles Huston to break into Brookings and other target offices of suspected subversion, specifying: "Goddamn it, get in and get those files. Blow the safe and get it."
The affair revolves around the behavior of a Nixon ally, Anna Chennault, widow of World War II Flying Tigers hero Gen. Claire Chennault, who is said to have encouraged South Vietnamese leaders to pull out of the talks. The "Dragon Lady" or "Little Flower," as she was called, had met with Nixon that summer and asked that she be designated his "sole representative" to the Saigon regime. When she visited the South Vietnamese ambassador in Washington that fall, LBJ had her put under surveillance.
Johnson turned over the evidence acquired to his vice president, Democratic presidential nominee Hubert Humphrey, telling him Nixon's actions, if true, amounted to "treason," and urging Humphrey to make the evidence public at the election's 11th hour. But Humphrey surprisingly declined, out of fear of backlash for releasing classified information, or of himself being accused of playing a desperate dirty trick to snatch victory from defeat in that razor-close campaign.
In Humphrey's memoir, "The Education of a Public Man," he wrote: "I wonder if I should have blown the whistle on Anna Chennault and Nixon. He must have known about her call to (SVN President) Thieu. I wish (italics) I could have been sure. Damn Thieu. Dragging his feet this past weekend hurt us. I wonder if that call did it. If Nixon knew. Maybe I should have blasted them anyway."
On an LBJ taped conversation at the time with then Senate Minority Leader Everett Dirksen, Johnson told him of the Chennault affair: "They ought not to be doing this. This is treason. It would shock America if a principal candidate was playing with a source like this on a matter this important. If Nixon keeps the South Vietnamese away from this conference table."
In a separate taped conversation, when LBJ confronts Nixon on the matter, he says: "My God, I would never do anything to encourage the South Vietnamese not to come to that conference table." He insists he is not involved in "somebody trying to sabotage the Saigon attitude...Good God, we want them over in Paris. We've got to get them to Paris or you can't have peace."
The Logan Act of 1799 prohibits any American citizen from carrying out any "intercourse with any foreign government or officer or agent" regarding "any disputes or controversies with the United States or to defeat (its) measures." It carries with it a fine or imprisonment of up to three years.
Johnson's close White House aide, Joseph Califano, wrote in "The Triumph and Tragedy of Lyndon Johnson" that Humphrey's refusal to make public what LBJ had given him "became the occasion for a lasting rift" between the president and his vice president.
Hughes' linking of the Huston break-in plan to Chennault's activities provides a credible new rationale to the allegation that Nixon was indeed involved in the caper that could have cost Humphrey the 1968 election--and had it come to light earlier, denied Nixon the White House.

scared to talk to boss about pumping at work
Matt & Meghan *2-2-08*
Baby Girl due *12-6-12*
It is your legal right to pump at work, so I wouldn't be nervous about it at all: http://parenting.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/04/09/new-rules-about-breast-pumps-at-work/. Be firm and say that you will need reasonable breaks and accomodations to be able to pump. If you work in a hair salon, I'm assuming there are other women that work there. This probably isn't the first or last time she's dealt with this issue!

i work at a car dealership with all men. i am terrified too. i can't imagine it being easy to find a place comfortable to pump. but, i don't want to take the benefit away from my baby. it's actually giving me a lot of stress as well. i don't even know what to say. the only available area would be a non working bathroom in the break room--me pumping with men outside eating their lunch. idunnowhattodo.

I would try to not stress. Maybe there's even an area you haven't thought of yet. That happened to me. I worked in retail with cameras everywhere and thought I'd have to pump in the bathroom but there was a room I could use! Without cameras! If not I've heard of adapters you can use in your car I think. If you're more confortable, look into that.
Married to my Highschool sweetie 11/18/2006...Proud mommy of Simon Christopher Leon 08/01/09, Expecting Simons little brother December 5th, 2012!!!!!!
There are 3 of us here in my office that are all due at the same time (well, within 2 weeks of each other). I know for sure that I will be pumping, but the other 2 are unsure if they will or won't. I went ahead and asked HR about possibly using one of the empty offices upstairs as a room the we can schedule times to pump in.
Turns out, they liked the idea and are in the process of setting it up for anyone who needs it (insulin users, pumping, etc.) They are putting couches and recliners in there and will also have an area with a scale, blood pressure monitor and a fridge for storage.
It is set up in our system as a conference room so we can go into our outlook calendars and schedule a block of time to be in there.
I can understand feeling uncomfortable because breasts are sexualized in our society.
But think of it this way - perhaps your boss has a wife & children, or a daughter in law and grandchildren. Most of your co-workers do, right? At the very least, they are all aware of the facts of life?
You aren't doing anything shocking or horrifying. We have to get over that mindset. We all know milk comes from boobies. More & more people are aware of the importance of BFing these days. And it's not sexual -- you are doing it in private, right?
With that in perspective, if you are still just uncomfortable or shy about it - perhaps invest in a small portable pump and a special pumping bra. This way you can be more discreet (Like sitting in your car during your breaks if possible.) I even have friends who commute, and were able to attach the pump through their bra on the drive in and the drive home. That was sufficient for them, but everyone is different.
Honestly I'd say just get over it and let them know you will be pumping, and ask where you can do it.
Not sure why you would be nervous? By law they have to let you pump and provide a non-bathroom lockable room for you. Even if you don't care that much about those details, they still have to give you breaks to pump. No biggie. I'm the boss here and couldn't imagine someone being scared to ask me about it. (Then again I have all men and one woman, who will never have kids who work for me, lol!)
Don't assume you'll need to "stand your ground" or any of that. Just approach her when you are alone together and start with "So I plan on breast feeding, and when I return to work I will be pumping. I wasn't sure if you wanted me to tell you that up front?" And just see where the convo goes from there.
Me (34) + DH (32)
Our daughter Skylar was born 12-2-12!
Don't even present it as a question. Just let them know that when you return you'll need breaks for pumping, and that you're planning to accomplish it by doing A, B, C. I'm assuming that since you work in a salon that you manage your own schedule somewhat - you can schedule blocks of time to pump between clients, hopefully.
Just check in to see where they would like you to do it.
I work for a smaller company and was only the second employee to ever need pump breaks, but they couldn't have been more gracious about it. I sometimes struggled to find a good "spot" because we're growing and were frankly out of room at the time, but it always worked. On days when there were literally no conference rooms or similar, I'd pump in my car - was really fine. To get through the pumping thing, you just have to be able to roll with the punches a bit and be flexible.
I used a Medela PIS which has a little cooler in it that was more than sufficient to keep my milk for 8-10 hours; I wasn't comfortable leaving it in the office fridge because I felt very protective of it - but I was pumping exclusively (made it 10 months) and that was literally my daughter's direct source, so. I didn't want to take any chances.

Halloween gift tag clip
I was playing around with my Tag Makers recently and stumbled upon the idea to attach the tag to a gift bag with a small wooden clothes peg rather than to tie it with twine through the hole at the top. This discovery was perfect timing since I've got some Halloween gift bags to make up.
Reusable lunch bags
We are coming to the last few days of summer vacation, and I must admit I'm feeling nostalgic for the days when we still had a long, hot summer ahead of us. I think the kids are, in some ways, starting to feel ready to get back to school, but I'm feeling a little sad! To keep myself occupied, I'm trying to craft my way to school preparedness, starting with this vinyl, reusable lunch bag.I used this pattern by Pretty Prudent, with a couple of modifications. Firstly, I used a vinyl material with a wipedown wrong side. A quick rinse under a tap should keep this lunch bag clean inside and out. Second, I used Velcro for the seal, instead of a button or tie. Velcro is so easy for small fingers to manage, and I really like how you can roll down the top edges to make a neat closure and avoid spillages.
Mini mustache embroidery hoops
Every now and then I like to do a little hand stitching, do you? These miniature (3″) embroidery hoops are the perfect size for a quick project that you can start and finish in less than 2 hours.
Monthly round-up JULY
This month has been a month to RELISH! Like many of you, I have had children home for the summer vacation and we've immersed ourselves in spending quality time together, playing, creating, reading and having fun. Many of my crafting projects have in some way involved them. I had the chance to review the new Book Let's Sew Together (and we even gave away a copy!) which is a great resource for people looking for creative projects to work on with children. From the book, my kids and I made these slippers and these necklaces!I shared an idea for creating your own abacus here and my son's amazing cardboard box arcade ideas here.We announced our three winners of the Create Behind the Seams contest we co-hosted with Pellon and it was so fun to watch the unique and fabulous entries roll in.I shared a peek at Spoonflower's new faux suede fabric with a new Kindle case and some cushions.And I also managed to sneak in a few paper projects too. There was the stencil technique with punches and possibly my favorite project of the whole month, my simple geometric heart wall art.
August's theme will be REFOCUS. Whilst I'm not ready to start thinking about Back To School, it'll be upon us before we know it. That means, new school clothes, pencil cases, accessories etc. I'm not going to wish away the summer though. In reality, I feel like it's only just beginning!
