pretty... .but
The shelf was beautiful once assembled, but it took a while to get it done.The covers for the screw heads were inadequate. I wish they were plugs, but they were just laminate type material with glue. Once my toddler discovered them, they were history as she removed them all.Read More

Craft Nook Perfection
I have a very small nook in my office I wanted to designate as a craft space. I had lots of supplies to organize and display but did not want to use a typical, simple book case. This shelf unit is PERFECTION in the space!! I wish this site would allow me to upload a photo to share - it's such a colorful and fun nook now! I will say it was quite a chore for my hubby to assemble - lots of pieces but sooooo worth the time he spent on it. The quality is awesome, the price was so budget friendly too. Thanks Overstock for having the EXACT item I needed to complete my little crafty nook.Read More
It looks very nice. It also has a lot options for display and for book shelves.Read More
Great display
Hard to put together but it's nice looking for the priceRead More
Exactly What I Thought it Would Be
The cabinet is sturdy and looks really nice especially for the price. It is pretty dark, and doesn't have any red tones---so not sure why that is in the name. Nontheless, it look nice and was very easy to put togther (just very repetitive). Tip....use a electric scredriver becauase there are lots of screws in this bad boy). For the most part, the cabinet looks of better quality (more expensive) than it is, however there is one tell-tell flaw that gives it away up close and that is the faux finish "stickers" that you are to put over the NUMEROUS screw holes that are each about the size of a dime. These stickers are easy to spot in the light and on the outer sides of the cabinet. They wil not go unoticed to anyone who lingers long enough to look at what your have displayed. In this respect Ikea has got this piece beat. Overall though I would say its a good deal for the money and is a substantial addition for a less substantial price.Read More
Very handsome bookshelf
Background:Bought this bookshelf for our living room. We are using it the tall way. The cons of this bookshelf are:1. One of the pieces came damaged. Overstock was fantastic about getting it replaced quickly, but it delayed being able to complete the project by about a week.2. A couple of the other pieces had some very minor dings. I doubt guests even notice, but they stand out to me.3. Some of the shelves are a little bit awkwardly shaped/sized, which is a bit odd if you're using the shelf for only books. But this is also a pro... The pros are: 1. Some of the shelves are a little bit awkwardly shaped/sized, but this actually great if you've got a few tall/skinny/wide items. 2. It's a really nice looking bookshelf! We've already had many compliments. 3. It's very easy to put together. It takes some time, but I enjoy projects like this and found it to be a simple project.4. It's very sturdy. The pieces are heavy, and it has a presence in the room.5. Overall, we're very happy with this shelf. It looks very nice, it's not bland, and it's a great way to display books and other items.Read More
These bookcases are awesome!!
I was totally blown away at the beauty, style and quality of these bookcases. They look absolutely gorgeous!! I first purchased 2 and then was so impressed with them after arrival, that I immediately purchased a 3rd one. They look even better than their pictures. If there was a category above excellent, that is where I would rate them. Everyone who has entered my home has raved about them. They add elegance to any space. I love them and would not trade them for anything.Read More
Surprisingly nice!
I concur with most of the other reviewers. I purchased two white bookshelves but one came damaged from transport. Overstock immediately replaced the damaged pieces. Easy for my husband to assemble but he's vey handy. Love it! Nice modern addition to my living room.Read More
Looks great!
This turns into a beautiful bookcase, took me about an hour and 1/2 to put together. I have put together this type of furniture before, so was familiar with how the cam-locks worked, but the instructions really don't tell you how to do them, so if you're new to this type of assembly, make sure you know how to do them first. The "dots" to cover the screws were a little noticeable, and they give you EXACTLY enough, so no room for error. All in all, once it is put together, it is a very sturdy, unique and pretty piece of furniture. I plan to use it horizontally on top of a pony wall (that has yet to be built!) as a room divider in my entryway. I LOVE the chunky look of the shelves, very contemporary.Read More

Is the white color a glossy white or a plain mat white? Thanks, Barbara
Hello barb1228, this has a slight shine to it in my opinion. We try to represent the colors of our products accurately. Unfortunately, due to the difference in monitor colors we cannot guarantee that the color will match exactly what you see on your screen. Thank you for shopping with us.
when can i order the white
Hello gretchen megargel, we currently have the white in stock. I hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Thank you for shopping with us!
In the description it says that the bookshelf is made out of wood. Is it actually made out of wood or is it laminate? I saw the same exact bookshelf in a store for $60 less but it was made out of laminate so I want to make sure it is real wood.
Hello nwlife, this is compressed hardwood with laminate construction. Thanks for shopping with us!
Very good quality wood. I always get compliments on this shelf.

Hello, items are restocked as they become available; however we cannot guarantee an item will be restocked. Thank you for shopping with us.
will this unit be available in white anytime soon?
hi tikicleen; it's tikicleen. i am guessing that the answer is no since there hasn't been any form of a response from overstock.com. you're welcome.
Hello tikicleen, I apologize for the delay. Items are restocked as they become available; however we cannot guarantee an Item will be restocked. Thank you for shopping with us.
After reading some reviews, some people had defective pieces or misaligned drilled holes and one person complained that the bookcase was wobbly.

Thank you for shopping Overstock.com, let us know if you have any additional questions.
How much does it way assembled? Thank You
The weight is 123 pounds.
In the description it says it can be wall mounted. Are there parts included to accomplish this (like a rail system or shelf brackets, for example)? Thanks
I'm sorry for the delay in answering this question, however, I was unable to obtain additional information regarding a wall mounting for this device. I therefore assume it does not come with that hardware. I do not think it would be difficult to get appropriate hardware form your local hardware store.
Yes. It comes with an earthquake bracket.
Could this be disassembled for moving? I read from the reviews that the glues are used for assembling the bookcase. Is this designed so that when I move I could disassemble this and move it? Otherwise, I think the volume and the shape of the bookcase is pretty hard to move. (It is OK if this can be partially disassembled, even that would help a lot.)
It is not meant to be disassembled.
where was this product made?
This item is made in China.
what is the max recommended weight per shelf?
The weight should not exceed more than 3 to 5 pounds per shelf.
If laid horizontally, could this hold a 55" flat screen TV?
This item could hold a TV if laid horizontally, but it is not recommended as a TV stand.
One of the pieces (#15) is defective. How do I go about getting a replacement?
Please contact customer care via chat/email or phone: 1-800-THE-BIG-O (1-800-843-2446) and we can get a parts request set up to get the defective piece replaced!

Mobile's police chief is retiring. Chief Micheal T. Williams announced Wednesday he will step down from the post within 60 days. Williams is leaving before mayor-elect Sandy Stimpson takes office. Stimpson defeated two-term incumbent Sam Jones on Tuesday. Williams was named police chief in 2010. He's worked for the Mobile Police Department for more than two decades.
Birmingham and Mobile are both electing mayors on Tuesday. In Birmingham, incumbent William Bell faces four challengers as he seeks his first, full four-year term. Bell originally took office after the felony conviction of former Mayor Larry Langford and then won a shortened term. Bell is being opposed by Kamau Afrika, Patricia Bell, Stephannie Sigler Huey and Adlai Trone in a low-key municipal campaign. In Mobile, Mayor Sam Jones is being opposed by Sandy Stimpson and Doris Brown.
Mobile Mayor Sam Jones says federal support in the aftermath of two tornadoes that struck the city within the same week might be tough to come by.
Al.com reports (http://bit.ly/S6Hqpf) that Jones made the comments to Mobile's city council on Wednesday.
The city on Thursday will submit its request, including a damage assessment, to the Mobile County Emergency Management Agency, which will in turn submit it to the state. It will be up to Gov. Robert Bentley's office to determine if the request should be forwarded to the Federal Emergency Management Agency for consideration.

Minn. chief asks FBI to examine tape of arrest
By David Chanen and Rochelle Olson
Star Tribune
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Minneapolis Police Chief Tim Dolan said today he will ask the FBI to investigate an incident in which a squad car video captured police punching and kicking a man as they tried to arrest him in February after a stop for speeding.
"The kicking is troubling to me," Dolan said after watching the video early today. "The public will want an investigation."
Jenkins was stopped by Minneapolis police at 3 a.m. Feb. 19 on Penn Avenue N. for allegedly going 15 miles per hour over the speed limit.

|This article contains wording that promotes the subject in a subjective manner without imparting real information. (March 2014)
Žanis Bahs (also Žanis Bachs; 1885-1941) was a Latvian general. He fought in World War I; later in the Latvian War of Independence he commanded a division in the Republic of Latvia and was arrested and shot by Soviet authorities after the Occupation of Latvia.
Early life[edit]
Žanis Bahs was born on 6 October 1885 in the Gaiķi parish, Courland Governorate as an innkeeper's son. He studied at the commercial school in Riga and later started metallurgy studies at St. Petersburg Polytechnical Institute.
In 1912 he was drafted into the Russian Imperial Army and served in the 170th infantry regiment. He graduated the school of praporschik in 1913.
World War I[edit]
After the start of the First World War Bahs served in the 174th and 540th infantry regiments. In December 1916, he was transferred to the Latvian Rifleman units and served in 2nd Riga Latvian rifleman regiment. After the legendary Christmas battles he was transferred back to the 540th infantry regiment in February 1917.
In August 1917 Bahs enlisted in the Russian academy of General staff and served in the headquarters of the 37th army corps as a poruchik.
In October 1917 he was promoted to the rank of stabskapitan. After the October revolution Bahs was dismissed from the Red Army in February 1918 and returned to Latvia.
Latvian War of independence[edit]
Bahs enlisted in the newly formed Latvian Army on 13 December 1918. From April 1919 he served in the Northern Latvian brigade. After the Battle of Cēsis he was the Latvian military attache in Estonian-occupied Pskov. In July 1919 he was appointed commander of an Operative part of Latvian army.[1] During the Bermontian attack Bahs served on the General Staff of the Latvian Army.
Later life[edit]
After the Latvian war of independence he served as a Latvian military attache in Soviet Russia in 1921-1922. In 1922 he was promoted to the rank of a colonel and appointed Chief of the Staff of the 2nd Vidzeme infantry division.
In 1934 he was appointed commander of the 5th Cēsis infantry regiment. In 1936 Bahs was promoted to the rank of a general and appointed commander of the 4th Zemgale infantry division and the Daugavpils city garrison.
After the Latvian occupation Bahs was arrested and deported to Moscow in December 1940. After long interrogations he was sentenced to death on 18 July 1941. He was shot and then buried in Kommunarka mass grave near Moscow in 16 October 1941.[2]

Phoenix Mercury
Leaked music video shows Justin Bieber dancing up The Great Wall
We now know why Justin Bieber had his bodyguards carry him up the Great Wall of China earlier this month.
As is turns out, the 19-year-old pop star was shooting the music video for his latest single "All That Matters" and seemingly needed to save his energy for those Bieberific dance moves.
The clip shows the Biebs struttin' his stuff by the historic China spot alongside his crew of brawny security guards.
While "All That Matters" marks the second release for Bieber's Music Mondays series, the video wasn't supposed to debut until a later date.
And no one was more upset than director Alfredo Flores, who shared his disappointment via Twitter on Tuesday.
I hate leaks. You work so hard on something and then people see it at 70% opposed to 100 like intended.— Alfredo Flores (@AlfredoFlores) October 15, 2013

Old Frisian fugel, Old Norse fugl, Middle Dutch voghel, Dutch vogel, German vogel, Gothic fugls), probably by dissimilation from *flug-la-, literally "flyer," from the same root as Old English fleogan, modern fly (v.1).
Originally "bird;" narrower sense of "domestic hen or rooster" (the main modern meaning) is first recorded 1570s; in U.S. also extended to ducks and geese. As a verb, Old English fuglian "to catch birds." Related: Fowled; fowling.

KitchenAid ProLine Toaster #KMT223
With its rounded shape, glossy finish, and stainless steel accents, the KitchenAid ProLine Toaster wowed us with its automotive styling. While it doesn't cost quite as much as a Chevy, it's pricey enough that you might be disappointed that it doesn't butter your bread too. What this toaster will do is lower your bread automatically as soon as you select a setting, show you the toasting progress, and, if you don't grab your toast within 45 seconds of when it's done, keep it warm for up to 3 minutes. You also have the option of adding a little time without changing your favorite setting. Available in black, silver, white, red.
Manufacturer's Warranty: Five years
Reviewed: September 2013

Possession (1981)
Garbage, Gibberish and Artsy-Fartsy.
foreign films: obtuse plot lines, irrelevant scenes, dialogue that seems to have been translated from its original tongue to Chinese, then to Swedish, then to mongolian, then to nepalese, then.. well, who cares? the symbolism of the film shoots in one direction, the acting somewhere else, the dialogue, well, i mentioned it already, the point? there is no POINT, which IS the point.. it is an experience, much like up-chucking an evening's consumption of beer or whatever is your poison, into a friend's "porcelain facility" of the residence: long-remembered, preferably forgotten.. i've seen "bugs bunny" cartoons that made more sense and "little rascals" comedies that were more rewarding.. at least there was a moral at the end that was comprehensible and fun to watch.. the horror, the devastating impact of this film was watching it from start to finish.. why did sam neil accept this role? did he lose a bet? was he "double-dared" by someone? did he owe money to someone in the production team, and this would square everything? he should have mowed lawns, fried burgers or worked as a greeter at wal-mart.. those things people can forget; this piece? like pictures on the internet, it will last forever.. sam should buy all the prints and negatives and hold a beach party where the evidence is burned as the guests dine on lobster and sushi..
Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (2007)
a lot of pain for so little gain
it's so weird to me that people speak so strongly about a program they hate, yet continue to watch.. "..fifth grader?" must be the show you guys love to hate, and can't miss an episode.. about the pace of the show: if it appears to move slowly, it's because the contestants are given time to calm down and become comfortable.. how many of you have appeared before on TV before a studio audience of hundreds which was being televised to millions? fox worthy's jokes, while sometimes lame, are another tool for calming the contestant.. laughter displaces anxiety and concern over how one appears before a crowd, and the fear of appearing foolish from something that was said or done.. about general dislike of the show: so, why watch it? or, maybe you watch it a lot, and get few questions correct? so? join the club; only one contestant won all the money.. more people failed than succeeded.. so? about a student-contributor to the these comments who disliked an ?? or answer: here's something you can fix: get an education, join the team at a quiz show (jeopardy?) and write the questions you feel are better than what you've seen up to this point.. you earlier commenter's are so big on criticism and put-downs, could you do better? so, why don't you? how good does it have to be to meet your criteria? should it be read directly from the encyclopedia Britannia? should the host be an m.i.t. professor? maybe you commenter's forgot the first rules of TV: attract an audience; retain their interest; insure their return for the next episode.. the first rule of watching TV is: if it isn't fun, change the channel.. okay, so it's not everyone's idea of fun-- what is? you like bikini mud wrestling? great! how about basket weaving? great! how about watching shopping networks all day? great! everyone has their preferences and everyone has their idea of what's fun.. do you resent another's enjoyment of a program you don't like? so, find something else! but, get off others' back about what they like!! nobody put a gun (or remote) to your head to keep you watching "..fifth grader?" change the channel or turn the set off, but knock off the knocking of others for the sake of enjoying yourself.. it wastes energy and time.. or do you purely enjoy diminishing another's enjoyment?
The Private War of Major Benson (1955)
something missing?
i loved this movie.. hovey was 2 years older than me.. my dad was career-military.. of course, i placed my dad in the role of charlton heston, myself as tim hovey.. any way, after watching it 10 times, it occurred to me that something was missing from the film.. if you're really busy enjoying the movie, it's not so obvious.. if you've seen it a dozen times, it becomes more obvious.. teachers! there's no teachers in this flick! there's barely any discussion of academics, zilch about teachers they feel strongly about, subjects they love/hate..
what do cadets at a military school talk about? apparently 1) being away from home; 1) wearing uniforms; 3) military protocol; 4) upperclassmen; 5) food; 6) cadet duty; the new commandant..
they talk very little about 1) studies; 2) teachers; 3) graduation; 4) tests; 5) tutoring; 6) what school they hope to attend next..
of course, the story has to involve few people to maintain the tightness of the plot.. still, it would appear realistic to see heston discuss curricula with a teacher, or observe a couple of classes.. a new commandant would do that, wouldn't he?
here's the cast representing the school admin.: the commandant; the principal; the school nurse; the janitor.. other nuns appear, but are not identified as teaching or doing anything in particular..
im not critcizing the film.. it's great.. music by mancini, produced by the two guys who produced the 'beaver' show soon after..
you gotta love it!
The Quatermass Xperiment (1955)
slower is better
i feel the pace is slow, and this gives the suspense a better chance to build to the end. the music is also a tension-builder, and is effective during scenes in which nothing overtly threatening takes place. the use of dark corners and darkness generally suggests that there is much about science which is unknown to us, or maybe i just saw a bad print. the review of the film exposed during the spaceship's journey is also intuitive. it suggests that our technology and powers of observation may not be adequate to even suspect that something untoward is happening..
at the end, quatermass does something very significant, albeit insensitive.. when asked what he proposes to do next, he replies (to the effect), that he is returning to his lab (office, etc.) to begin designing the next spaceship.. seeming initially cold and aloof, he is the typical workaholic..he cares for nothing except his job.. everyone aboard the ship is dead.. the remains from the 'adventure' are available for scientists to pore over as they wish.. quatermass's job is get spaceships built, acquire crews to man them and launch everything into space and return them safely to earth, that's all.. this is one focused guy.. and i admire him.. he doesn't waste sentiment and time for those who are lost.. he is concerned about using what he has learned to improve the next mission.. if quatermass isn't working on something, he's burning daylight..
the 'quatermass' name is interesting.. could it have come from 'quantum' and 'mass'? here are two areas of atomic physics, although long-examined, are little understood today.. other films like this one: 'x-the unknown' & 'monsters from space', a quatermass sequel; '5 million years to earth', with quatermass character played by a different actor.
Desk Set (1957)
taste is so much a matter of what you like.
other writers criticized this production for its absence of sparkle or lacking a deeper moral.. makes me wonder why people go to the movies in the first place.. the pair made a couple of color productions.. maybe those 2 are lackluster that's the problem.. tracy/hepburn had no business making color films! some are so easily entertained, and some are so easily offended.. i say this film is a terrific example of "sex farce".. it is fun, unpretentious and shows vignettes of human behavior with which everyone can identify: new kid on the block; man with a mission; gossip; office politics; jobs in jeopardy; office romance; 'the man wearing the bathrobe of another man's girlfriend'; want to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who gets things done?; technology pushed to the limit; a man meets his limitations; lose a boyfriend, find a boyfriend.. the greatest (and last) puzzle of all: would (should) a woman hold back her ability to avoid embarrassing a man she wants to ask her in marriage?
it isn't adams' rib.. but what is? would you see a number of movies if everyone of them were like the best move you ever saw? how many 'gone with the wind' type of films can you stand? isn't the point to vary what you see.. isn't that how you make comparisons? i dont see a movie to change my life, or to compare it to another film in order to devalue one of them.. but, i guess that's what some people call a good time..
Andy's Gang (1955)
good ol' saturday mornins'
froggy would appear and say, HI-DEE, HI-DE, HI-DEE! billie gilbert would appear as the prof. and give voice lessons.. something would happen ( maybe froggy would spray sneezing powder? ) and he would sneeze uncontrollably and leave.. also remember the magic twanger.. from my dim memory, i thought it was froggy's way of triggering a practical joke.. the scenes of the kids in the audience struck me as strange.. i remember that they always were doing the same exact movements, as if the same film was used every episode.. why not, what do kids know? there was a song andy sang with the audience.. only remember the ending-- good ol' andy's gang!
The Larry Sanders Show (1992)
what is wrong with this picture?
**what is the central piece of evidence in this program that says what the show is all about? clue: it's on larry's talk-show desk, it's facing you, it's......the name plate!!!! where else have you seen this? name one talk-show, or any show of any kind that has to remind you, the audience, who you are watching!!! forget the name? there it is!! what's it mean? i'm no shrink! what do i think it means? it's signals the incredibly insecure personalities of everyone in the play.. it goes from larry, the insecure host, to artie, the cool, but insecure producer.. the name plate doesn't merely have his name, it has his job title!! "larry sanders comma host". maybe it signals our short attention spans.. we can't remember who we're looking at or why he's there, so they've put up his name plate with title, to reassure us that, ah yes, this is the sanders show and he's the host.. so, what's on the espn-classic channel? all dialogue and behavior in the play (to differentiate between talking about the program-in-a-program, or the program in chief) supports this one tenet.. when larry sits at his show-desk, you see the name plate; it means he's afraid you won't remember his name or his position, so he's put it in writing.. just check the name plate and watch the show long enough to like him.. the next 25 minutes reinforces this: the insecurity of his staff, home life, buddies, etc. what is the nexus of dialogue here? there are several: #1. lies; #2. sucking up; #3. exaggeration and/or hyperbole; and #4. lies to cover up the earlier lies when it's too late to retract (putting the toothpaste back in the tube).. of course, it's all in fun.. never try these tricks at home, kids, they're dangerous!!
Soldier in the Rain (1963)
location unknown, but it is familiar..
as a 20-year army brat, this film is quite sentimental.. no combat is involved, but as a dependent in peacetime at many army bases, it brings back lots of memories.. imdb has no info. on where this was filmed, but the hospital scenes are familiar.. there may be several army hospitals which are similar to this one--it seems to be a southern location.. with names like pepperdine, where else? anyway, my association is with an army base in louisana, which shall remain nameless.. if info is out there which can specify where this was filmed, i'd want to know, especially the hospital parts..
The Fury (1978)
the big muddy on your mind..
a previous reviewer, klantry, was on point when commenting that "fury" was muddled.. this is one convoluted, confused, yuck flick.. (names are actors' stage names) kirk works for a "super-secret" agency (did "brian" ever tell us who?); his boss (i guess) obviously is john, because john is in on a plot to kill.. who? kirk, andrew? this happens on a beach in.. where? middle east, miami, the reviera? the reason is.. why? kirk said mean things behind john's back; kirk's wife refused a pass from john? andrew's properties are important because.. he can read minds; he knows what women want; if he forgets his girl's birthday, he'll just read her mind.. the "(insert any name here--every film of this genre has one) institute" is important because.. andrew can meet chicks there--shoot, he can meet chicks anywhere, right? amy wants to go there and find a "hunk"; or maybe she wants to train as a red cross technician for the blood donor program.. jeez, this film tells so little and we're supposed to know so much, it's like taking a test in "cosmo" magazine-- no matter what, you still feel stupid at the end..so, what is this run-amok production all about? i've seen my fill of "super-secret" agent films; ditto for "gifted" young people.. whenever amy displayed her abilities, she looked so bored and put out with the people who asked her to prove she could "do something", i felt the same way watching (and trying to figure out) what was going on with the so-called "plot".. it seems those who write favorable reviews of films like this one gush over the director, producer, the ambience, texture, artistry, blah-blah-blah.. but, they never give one word to what the movie is about, what does it mean? why is this film important? why should i care about any of it? this one has me screaming, running out of the emergency exits.. I DON'T KNOW, WHY DON'T THEY TELL ME? one more thing: the book version is equally mystifying and convoluted, forget it..
Quatermass and the Pit (1967)
notice this!
**a previous letter states that hammer films are usually more associated with '50s english horror films..excuse me, but that is exactly what this is! is there a comparison between this film and others from hammer which are not '50s english horror?
next, some really neat stuff..quatermass..the name seems quite similar-sounding to quantum, as in quantum physics..the name seems to mesh perfectly with quantum mass, which, although often theorized about, is little understood and less discussed.
hobb's end, the location of the ship, is mentioned where ancient cultures held ceremonies to celebrate demons devils, etc. ..isn't this where we got "hobgoblin"?
is there anyone who doesn't know that rocks have been found from mars at the north pole? these rocks have formations that seem to be identical to fossilized microbiological life forms..they were ejected from martian volcanoes and floated in space millions of years before being attracted to earth's gravity..not a great leap to a story that suggests life might have developed from visitors to our planet..to paraphrase pogo: we have met the martians, and they are us!

Amnesty criticises Australia's human rights record
Australia has come in for censure from Amnesty International in its annual report.
Its worldwide report has criticised Australia's proposed ASIO legislation and the treatment of asylum seekers.
The president of Amnesty International in Australia, Russell Thirgood, says that while governments have a duty to protect their citizens, concerns over security have led to the erosion of human rights.
"The war on terror has made the world a very dangerous place and our freedoms have been eroded and divisions have been exploited between people," he said.
The report, released in London, also criticises the so-called "Pacific Solution" for asylum seekers and the policy of mandatory non-reviewable detention of people arriving in the country without travel documents.
Mr Thirgood says concerns about international security should not be used as a screen to erode fundamental human rights.
"The way that Australia has dealt with asylum seekers and refugees has been offensive to human dignity," he said.
"We have serious concerns surrounding the psychological impact of detention and the temporary protection visa scheme."

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) - Notre Dame tackle Sam Young, nose tackle Ian Williams and highly touted freshmen linebacker Manti Te'o did not participate in the Fighting Irish's second practice of the day.
All three showed up about 40 minutes late Thursday evening, after the media viewing period for practice was over. They wore their uniforms, but did not have pads on. All three were limping. Te'o had a wrap around his right thigh.
Young is a senior who has started all 38 games in his career. Williams is a junior who started seven games last season.
Coach Charlie Weis did not speak to the media Thursday. A call seeking comment was left for spokesman Brian Hardin.

Asian stocks fell for a second day, driving the regional benchmark index to its longest string of weekly losses since the collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., amid signs economic recovery in the U.S. is faltering.
Australia's dollar fell against the yen, extending a weekly drop, as speculation China's central bank will raise interest rates to combat inflation damped demand for the South Pacific nation's assets.

"The main theme is that China's still got this diversification bid out there for the Australian dollar and that has limited declines in the currency above the parity level."

It's her work, but it's much more than that: it's her singular calling."-- Publisher description.

This book follows the story of highly motivated and entrepreneurial twin brothers, David and Jason Benham, from their formative years and ventures into professional baseball to their rise as owners of a multi-million dollar business empire and securing an HGTV reality series. It?s a journey where the brothers learned how they must die to their dreams not just once, but twice as they walked away from baseball before being called up to the Big Show and later as their TV series was stripped away from them just before airing when the network succumbed to media pressures surrounding their faith. These experiences only helped them realize that the key to powerful living is found when you die to your dreams and face your fears, and choose to live powerfully through it all. The biblical principles they implemented to guide their work and families are revealed in practical terms to apply to our daily lives and give us courage to stand for what is right.

"Dennis Hopper (Dodge City, Kansas, 1936) is especially known for his work in films - among them Easy Rider, Out of the Blue and Colors - as both actor and director. This publication focuses on his visual art: paintings, photographs and assemblages produced from 1955 until now. That work has been influenced by Hopper's film work in all sorts of ways. He incorporates photographs and film stills into his paintings, often assembling separate pieces into diptychs and other multiple combinations. Rudi Fuchs and Jan Hein Sassen, director and curator of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, analyze Hopper's art, his involvement in the West-Coast art scene and the complex circumstances under which he has developed his versatile talents. Capturing the atmosphere of Dennis Hopper's artistic, social and personal landscape, the essays also give consideration to his contacts with other artists, such as Edward Kienholz, Richard Diebenkorn, Andy Warhol and Ed Ruscha. This book portrays the multifaceted nature of Hopper's artistry and the ambiguity of his image, which ranges from that of the tough, public cult figure to one of an intense and introspective painter."--BOOK JACKET.

CNY912 is one of many groups of Americans who wish to restore responsibility and accountability to the leadership of this nation. We work to restore to this REPUBLIC the system of government that is expressed in the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. The limited form of government, as intended by the Founding Fathers, is based upon millennia of understanding human nature and upon their faith in the God-given virtues of mankind. These foundational beliefs are represented by the nine principles and twelve values described by The 9/12 Project.
