The confrontations between police and demonstrators at the Stonewall Inn in New York City the weekend of June 27-29, 1969 mark the beginning of the modern glbtq movement for equal rights.
Formed soon after the Stonewall Riots of 1969, the short-lived but influential Gay Liberation Front brought a new militancy to the movement that became known as gay liberation.
The sexual revolution of post-World War II America changed sexual and gender roles profoundly.
"Leather" is a blanket term for a large array of sexual preferences, identities, relationship structures, and social organizations loosely tied together by the thread of what is conventionally understood as sadomasochistic sex.
Although best known for her crusade for women's suffrage, Susan B. Anthony spoke out on a range of feminist issues.
With reports from hundreds of sub-Saharan African locales of male-male sexual relations and from about fifty of female-female sexual relations, it is clear that same-sex sexual relations existed in traditional African societies, though varying in forms and in the degree of public acceptance
Androgyny, a psychological blending of gender traits, has long been embraced by strong women, soft men, members of queer communities, and others who do not easily fit into traditionally defined gender categories.
A cultural crossroads between Asia and Europe, Russia has a long, rich, and often violent heritage of varied influences and stark confrontations in regard to its patterns of same-sex love.
Barney Frank (left) and Richard Tisei.
Representative Barney Frank has endorsed Massachusetts Congressman John Tierney, a Democrat with an impeccable pro-gay voting record, in his race against gay Republican challenger Richard Tisei. In so doing, he criticized the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund for its endorsement of Tisei, describing its strategy of "blanket support" for gay candidates a "cultural lag."
The race between Tierney and Tisei has gained national attention both because Republicans have an opportunity to gain a Democratic-held Massachusetts congressional seat, but also because if elected Tisei would be the first openly gay Republican elected to Congress. (In the 1990s, two openly gay Republicans, Steve Gunderson of Wisconsin and Jim Kolbe of Arizona, were re-elected to Congressional seats after having been outed while in Congress.)
On September 14, 2012, Frank told Bryan McGonigle of TewksburyPatch.com that Tisei would not be able to affect the Republican Party when it comes to gay rights. He said that electing Tisei would only give another seat to the Republican party, and that no pro-gay legislation would be permitted a vote as long as Republicans control the House.
Tisei has said that he disagrees with the Republican leadership on several issues, especially issues relating to gay rights and marriage equality.
"I was an advocate on the state level, I introduced legislation on the state level, I fought for equality on state level, and I'm not going to be any different on the national level," Tisei said.
Frank, however, said that the only way pro-gay legislation will be advanced is by returning Democrats to the majority.
He also criticized the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund for endorsing Tisei. Frank said that while blanket support for gay candidates was a useful strategy 20 years ago, times have changed. Visibility used to be the key thing, but, he said, "We've gone beyond that now."
"Richard Tisei should not mislead people by suggesting he can influence John Boehner's lifelong efforts against all that we stand for," Frank insisted. "It would be great to have another gay person in Congress, but not at the price of keeping Eric Cantor as majority leader."
According to Justin Snow of MetroWeekly, Frank said, "The fact that Richard Tisei is openly gay is a good thing. The problem is that it is of no use to us."
Tisei is a moderate Republican who supports marriage equality and is pro-choice. He has attempted to distance himself from the Republican Party's national platform, describing the document, which opposes marriage equality and supports the Defense of Marriage Act, as espousing "beliefs that exclude many from our party, including myself."
Tisei's moderate social views and record of working across party lines have propelled his campaign against Tierney, who has faced scrutiny for the October 2010 conviction of his wife for tax fraud.
Following his endorsement by Frank, Tierney reiterated his strong support for glbtq rights: "I have continually supported equal rights of all Americans and although we have made significant strides toward equality, we still have a long way to go. I will keep fighting to end discrimination against LGBT Americans."
Tierney has been endorsed by the Human Rights Campaign.
In contrast, the Victory Fund has doubled down on its endorsement of Tisei.
"The Victory Fund was proud to endorse Richard Tisei, and we stand with him as he seeks to represent the people of the 6th District in Washington," said Victory Fund President Chuck Wolfe. "We need authentic and courageous voices like his and Barney Frank's challenging both parties to change, and advocating for the freedoms all LGBT Americans deserve."
I believe the Victory Fund has made a serious error in endorsing Tisei. While the idea of promoting glbtq candidates in both parties is a good one, it is folly to support candidates simply on the basis of their sexual orientation.
More particularly, it is destructive to target straight allies like Tierney, who has one of the most progressive voting records in the entire Congress, by endorsing an opponent simply because of his sexual orientation.
At a time when there are real possibilities for progress, it is foolhardy of the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund to help enable the obstructionist tactics of the Republican Party.
The Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund is damaging its brand by using its resources to help unseat strong allies of the equal rights movement.

Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) August 08, 2013
Dixon was shocked to see his scale climb to 307 lbs. As reality struck, he committed to make his health a priority. His company had just partnered with Orriant in order to lower employee healthcare costs and improve the overall health of their employees. Dixon realized this would be an opportune time to get on track to a more active lifestyle. Being paired with an Orriant Health Coach, Dixon set goals to eat 3 servings of fruits and vegetables a day, exercise for 30 minutes 3 times a week and drink 100 ounces of water a day. Since Dixon chose to join Orriant's program, he acquired many wellness incentives including lower monthly premiums and personal health planning.
Dixon's main health objective was to lose weight, so he turned to his new Orriant Health Coach, Kristen, for assistance. Dixon wanted long lasting results, so Kristen asked him to focus on making important lifestyle changes. Together they set goals of moderate exercise and a healthy diet. Orriant's company wellness plans are centered on the idea of providing resources that allow people to become engaged in their health, as well as take advantage of the wellness incentives.
Down 27 lbs, Dixon is on a path that leads to a long and active life. He enjoys trying new activities and incorporating them into his daily schedule. "My personality is coming back," recalls Dixon, "I haven't had a 'peppy' attitude in years, but I can feel it coming back. I want to keep exercising so I can keep my self-esteem high." The wellness incentives that coincide with his plan are also making Dixon appreciate the benefits of the Orriant program. With lower employee healthcare costs and premiums, Dixon's results are provi

UN emergency fund gains $469 million in pledges
Published on Dec 12, 2012 5:54 AM
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - United Nations (UN) member states pledged US$384 million (S$469 million) on Tuesday to an emergency fund that will allow the world body to respond quickly to natural disasters and other crises in 2013, UN aid chief Valerie Amos said.
The UN Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF), which was created so cash could be given out quickly after a disaster without aid agencies having to wait for donations to roll in, has raised more than US$2.8 billion since it was launched in 2006.
"CERF is not just an acronym for a multi-million dollar fund," said UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon. "When floods wash away homes and hope, when wars tear apart schools and hospitals, when drought destroys crops and prospects, CERF reminds the victims they are not alone."
So far in 2012 the fund has allocated US$465 million for humanitarian aid in 49 countries, including Myanmar, South Sudan, Syria, North Korea, Haiti and Pakistan.

Too bad the game stinks. Pretty amusing commercial.

I have a platform and a message, and now I go to bed at night, sober and happy, praying I can be a good messenger." -Josh Hamilton

I'm sorry, where's Jay Bruce??
Working now.
Good commercial but still won't buy the game. Are there any good baseball games for them 360? I know ps3 had one out last year that was supposed to be decent but it wasn't available for any other systems.
Excuse me I need to be alone
Most Vottomatic Player
Nope. Still don't see Jay...just Kate Upton telling me what to do with my fingers...
Yeah it sucks to be a baseball fan for 360 users. MLB The Show is the best. However, this is the last year of 2K's contract with MLB so that means that MVP baseball will likely return in 2013
I don't quite see why they had Jay Bruce in the promo. Wasn't it about pitching a perfect game? He is pictured with Wilson, Verlander, and Price? Are they planning on striking Bruce out?
That said if I had the opportunity to be in a commercial with Kate Upton I think I would do it for free!

Moore wins over audience with a jingle and a prayer
In 2002, Julianne Moore played a '50s housewife twice, in "Far From Heaven" and "The Hours." In both, she represses an unshakable longing behind a mask of maternal stability.
But even masks have eyeholes, and that's why Moore is so perfect in these parts. Her characters can speak, walk and act in line with expectations, but Moore's eyes always seem clever and sad, as if there's a modern person trapped inside, looking for a way out.
In "The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio," she again plays a '50s housewife, this time a true-life figure: slogan writer Evelyn Ryan. Like Moore's other characters, Evelyn harbors a silent yearning. But unlike those women, she's smart enough not to let it depress her.
The film is based on a 2002 book, which I now want to read, that shares the movie's title but with the subtitle "How My Mother Raised 10 Kids on 25 Words or Less." The author is Terry "Tuff" Ryan, the sixth of the 10 kids.
If Evelyn were to have lived in contemporary times, she'd probably have worked at an ad agency or been a freelance short-story author. But in 1956, career was not a priority, to whatever extent it was even an option.
Between chores, she used her talents as a wordsmith to win hundreds of jingle contests, with prizes ranging in value from $1 to cars, trips or substantial wads of direly needed cash.
Evelyn wasn't just a woman who needed to stimulate a creative part of her brain, though she was that. Her winnings helped keep her family safe from the financial mismanagement of her alcoholic husband, Kelly (Woody Harrelson), who regularly spent the milk money on booze.
The movie's craftsmanship resembles old-fashioned TV ads and sitcoms, with quick, corny skits intertwined with chipper monologues. (Think of Donna Reed telling the camera, "I want only the best for my family ...")
Kelly, however, keeps the film's bubbly elements tied down to a dimmer truth. Harrelson takes the erratic aspects of his real-life persona and adds pathetic nerdiness and an explosive, Tasmanian temper.
He's coping - poorly - with his own regrets about the past, and his wife's moments in the sun aggravate his jealous nerve. We simultaneously fear, hate and pity him.
Marvelously, "Prize Winner" avoids trite abusive-relationship traps. We expect Evelyn to fight back or run away, as movie women usually do, but she endures - not as a doormat or a fool, but as an optimist in control of her husband just as a mom controls an irresponsible, tantrum-throwing son.
When she writes jingles, she knows just what to say, and the same is true with her family. She always picks the right words, whether they're used to comfort, encourage or discipline.
As author of the book, Tuff clearly didn't get along with her dad, an attitude shared by her siblings. Another part of the film's brilliance is that the children have brains. Movies often treat kids like accessories or miniature adults who are either totally cute or totally problematic, but here they're observant and react realistically to their father's disappointing behavior.
Evelyn is smart. She probably knows she could have "more," which to Tuff means an exciting, independent life in a big city. But Evelyn also is smart enough not to dwell on regret. She won't pursue her desires at the expense of her family because, ultimately, her family means more to her than herself.
In one of Evelyn's only out of-town trips, Tuff drives her 100 miles to attend a meeting of the Affadaisies, a group of avid "contesters" who share ideas and critique one another's work. Pardon the obscure reference, but the Affadaisies remind me of the dancing bees from Blind Melon's "No Rain" video - too gifted to fit in, but energized when together.
The film's only flaw worth mentioning is that my curiosity about Evelyn's creative process went mostly unsatisfied. We see the inspiration, and sometimes the results, but not the actual work.
Besides that, this movie impressed and surprised me. It has an upbeat energy, even during melancholy or poignant moments, and it's accessible and easy to follow without being frivolous, stupid or predictable. I couldn't wait to see what would happen next.
Note: It's rated PG-13 for "thematic elements" and a bit of language, but, in the opinion of this non-parent, it would be appropriate for kids younger than 13.

The 36-Year-Old Virgin
Despite her strong faith, Lakita did not grow up in the church—she admits that as a child she simply refused to go. "I thought church was where all the hypocrites were," she remembers, though her mother was a faithful churchgoer. Lakita finally made a commitment to Christ at age 17, and says she decided right then that she would live by Isaiah 54:5: "For thy Maker is thine husband" (NKJV). She recalls, "I asked myself, 'If God is really my Husband, then why am I flirting with some guy?' God even knows what I'm thinking!"
Lakita admits there were times when she asked herself other things too, like, Is there something wrong with me 'cause I don't have a boyfriend? Fortunately, her young mind wasn't given much room to explore that question—much of her free time was filled with sports or "cracking the books," and TV was usually off limits in the Garth home. In the long years of single adulthood, Lakita learned how to be comforted by God when she felt alone. "I had to go to Him when I was lonely," she says. "If I could be faithful to God during those times, I know I can be faithful to my husband."
Building biblical boundaries
Lakita's ministry is often to teenagers, but she finds Christian adult audiences even more challenging to address on issues of sexual purity. "Christian adults are the most clueless," she notes bluntly. "Many have never heard from the pulpit that sex before marriage is wrong," she says, citing how often singles have come up after her talks and told her so. "The Church needs to start preaching it, and then living it. We need to start equipping folks."
The 2004 Census Bureau's Current Population Survey reports that there are more people in the 30-34 age range who have never been married than there have been since 1970. That means it's likely that there are a greater number of older singles in our churches than we've seen in a long time. But are adult Sunday-school programs, or even church singles ministries, really meeting the needs of older singles? The answers vary, but many church programs seem to be heavy on events, but light on the biblically based teaching relevant to the issues single 30- and 40-somethings face.

Today's Awww Video – Dog Swims With Dolphins [VIDEO]
If you have a dog, you know most of them will happily jump into a pool, river, pond or lake. This pup happily jumps into the ocean to take a swim with dolphins.
If you have a dog, you know most of them will happily jump into a pool, river, pond or lake. This pup happily jumps into the ocean to take a swim with dolphins.
Sometimes I run across a little nugget that's too funny not to share with you. Take this pup. He's riding down the road with his head out the window like most dogs do, it's what he does to the passing cars that's hilarious.
We've posted plenty of photos of country stars' adorable pets, but Joe Don Rooney's sweet brindle bulldog might win the prize for the cutest puppy ever. The Rascal Flatts guitarist tweeted a photo of the brown ball of wrinkles earlier this week, and even asked his followers to help the Rooney clan pick out a name.
Whoever says the news doesn't print enough good news these days needs to see these photos of a victim of the recent tornadoes finding the dog he lost in the storms.
Greg Cook of Limestone County, Ala
Miranda Lambert really can't seem to catch a break. After losing her father-in-law (Blake Shelton's dad) just a few weeks ago, Lambert was then saddened by the loss of a longtime friend, who was killed in a tragic car accident. Today, the 'Baggage Claim' songstress shared with her fans that one of her dogs, Dixie, has also died.
What do you get when you mix a super obedient dog and a lazy woman? This video.
Dogs must think we're such morons. This dog (who's obviously operating on a much higher plain than mere humans) finally does something about the idiot who claims to be his best friend and clocks him in the face.
And this is why I am a dog lover. Me? I would say, "Well, that tennis ball's gone." But Willow, the unstoppable, enthusiastic, never-say-die, star of this video does not.
Well, I was a new mom once. And while parenting doesn't seem to be getting any easier, that newborn crying sure is tough to take. Luckily for this mom she doesn't have to - she has an awesome dog.
Nashville Kat and her husband have two (very large) Great Danes but she has been talking about adding to her pack for a while. She wanted the new member of her family to be a smaller rescue dog and she has finally found her new "Pal".
While pets are usually ambivalent about the Halloween costumes their owners dress them in, Tangent the chihuahua seems pretty pleased with the added firepower of his spiffy tank get up.
The tank, which took first prize at the local Petsmart's Halloween contest, features a gun that lights up and makes shooting sounds when Tangent's owner pulls a trigger on her side of the leash.

Coping With Code Complexity in .NET and Java
Date Added: Jan 2009
Format: Webcast
All code is NOT created equal. Complex code can be easy to create but is more difficult to test and maintain. Stealth bugs lurk in complex code, and they normally slip through testing only to appear after deployment. Automatically measuring code complexity in development and QA can help to prioritize test case development, identify refactoring opportunities and deliver more reliable and maintainable applications. The presenters of this webcast discuss tactics and strategies on how to locate the biggest testing challenges and prioritize test development and how to improve the ability to assess application risk using automated code analysis.

Important 1795 Eagle, Choice AU55 NGC1795 $10 13 Leaves AU55 NGC. B. 1-A, Taraszka-1, R.3.Despite its status as the nation's gold monetary unit, the Eagle enjoyed less popularity within financial circles than the smaller Half Eagle. As the Five Dollar coin had a similar value to foreign gold coins of the period, the Philadelphia mint concentrated its earliest gold coinage efforts on that denomination. When the government finally initiated Eagle production on September 22, 1795, only 5,583 1795-dated pieces were produced between that date and March 30, 1796. In stark contrast, the Mint's initial production of 8,707 Half Eagles was achieved in a much shorter time frame between July 31 and September 16, 1795. Regardless of its limited appeal to banks and merchants, the size of the eagle made it an impressive coin. As a result, curious American citizens saved many examples as first-year souvenirs, but numismatic scholars stress that fewer than 3% of the original mintage survives today in all levels of preservation.
An attractive example of our nation's first Eagle, with only a trace of wear on the highest points and in the fields. The surfaces display a few scattered abrasions, and the bright yellow-gold color does not inhibit the traces of original luster. For pedigree purposes, a thin curving scratch is seen from star 7 down to Liberty's throat. (#8551) (NGC ID# 25ZT, PCGS# 8551)

High standards of production and design have given them a reputation for quality. Nikko has proudly served fine hotels and restaurants worldwide for 100 years.
Nikko was founded in Kanazawa, Japan, by Lord Maeda and local nobles in 1908. Kanazawa is a city of history and culture, a haven for traditional arts and crafts. Successive lords promoted traditional culture and crafts and the first kiln was established on the land of Kanazawa. Here the noble culture of Kyoto and the Samurai culture from Edo co-existed and merged. Since 1908 Nikko has been manufacturing tableware with the spirit of craftsmanship and a company culture of high aesthetic sense. Nikko products have won a worldwide reputation for quality and design.
In 1961, the company moved its head office and plant to the present location in Hakusan City, west of Kanazawa. This completed the integrated production line with modern equipment and facilities and secured the company's position as a prestigious dinnerware manufacturer. In 1968 Nikko founded a subsidiary in the United States and in the 1980's the company expanded again by entering the international hotel and restaurant market.
Today Nikko produces tableware from several different materials, including semi-porcelain, fine bone china, fine porcelain, and fine vitrified china. Everything, even molds and decals, is produced under one roof. The Nikko compound in Hakusan City for manufacturing dinnerware covers 30 acres and now employs 350 highly skilled professionals.

Additional Location Information
The Oltrepo Pavese is the largest wine producing area of Lombardy in the North of Italy, but is also virtually unknown abroad.

Sport in Belize
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (October 2006)
|Part of a series on the
|Culture of Belize
Music and performing arts
Sports have always played a major part of Belizean culture. While Belize has never been an international sporting power, the nation's athletes have taken their discipline seriously. Sports in the country is plagued by a lack of finance and sporting facilities, and little emphasis on sports as an integral part of national culture and pride. Nevertheless, sports continue to unify Belizeans on and off the field.
Belize's National Sports Council oversees sports Belize, while the Olympic Committee oversees the country's Olympic Games delegations.
The following is a summary of various sporting disciplines in Belize (for more, see their respective articles):
Track and Field in Belize is run by its Amateur Athletics Association. The main facility for track and field events in Belize is the Marion Jones Sports Complex (previously known as the National Stadium) on Princess Margaret Drive in Belize City and named after the famous track and field star of Belizean descent. Plans have been made to renovate the track and convert the stadium to an indoor one.They are still trying to do this and figure out how to do it.
Basketball probably has the biggest people in Belize after football. It is governed by the Belize Basketball Federation (BBF), basketball's highest classification is semi-professional; the league (known as the Belize Basketball Association (BBA) was established in 1992). Matches are frequently held at the junior, senior amateur, high and primary school levels, and even the Mini tournament for little kids and Over-35 tournaments for retired players. There is a basketball court of some sort in every neighborhood and children can be seen practicing regularly.
Belize has held regional championships in the Caribbean (1998) and Central America (2001) but has not been to the Olympics. A number of Belizeans, such as Nigel Miguel, Milt Palacio, Kenton Paulino and Charles Burgess, play or have played basketball at the college and NBA level in the United States. Paulino led the University of Texas to the 2005 Elite Eight; Burgess played for Texas Tech. Palacio graduated from Colorado State and played for several NBA teams, most recently the Utah Jazz; Miguel hails from UCLA and briefly tried out for the New Jersey Nets in the 1980s.
Boxing gained a niche in Belize in the 1930s, when weekend fight cards generally packed the premier boxing arena in Belize, Birds' Isle. Prominent Belizean boxers include lightweight Ludwig Lightburn and welterweight Fitzroy Guisseppi (originally of Trinidad and Jamaica). Boxera like Carlton Bowers, Samuel (Red Boy) Flowers, Roy (Shorty) Clark. Beginning in the mid-1980s, boxing largely died out, and now only occasional amateur cards are held.
The local association sponsors a number of races per year, including the La Ruta Maya Belize River Challenge, a 180 mile, four-day canoe race on the Belize River that starts in San Ignacio and ends in Belize City. The race occurs annually on Baron Bliss Day. The race promotes environmental awareness, while at the same time creates an intense competition for seasoned and amateur athletes alike .The Ruta Maya is not a sport joined by young students without adult supervision.
Cricket is mainly played in the Belize Rural area, where local villages sponsor cricket teams. The national tournament is held in the Belize District from January to May. Belize's national cricket team played in Division Three of the ICC Americas Championship Bracket in 2008.
Cycling takes place year round on the nation's highways. It is mainly amateur, but Belizeans have been placed well regionally. The most famous race is the Holy Saturday Cross Country Cycling Classic, held during the Easter weekend since 1928. Other famous races include the KREM New Years' Day Cycling Classic sponsored by KREM Radio, the National Road Championship, the Labor Day Classic and the World AIDS Day Classic held in honor of Alpheus Williams, former champion and victim of that disease.
Football (Soccer)[edit]
Football has roots reaching back to mid century in amateur competitions, mostly held in Belize City. In 1991 Belize's first (semi)professional league, the Belize Semiprofessional Football League, was formed with teams from all districts save Stann Creek and Toledo, who joined later. This league is now known as the Belize Premier Football League (BPFL). The overall governing body of football in Belize is the Football Federation of Belize (FFB) headed by Dr. Bertie Chimilio. While Belize has enjoyed some success at regional and club level, its international record is notoriously poor.
Softball's governing body for men and women is the Softball Federation. It is most popular in Belize and Cayo Districts and is gaining a following in the South. After local tournaments are complete a national champion is crowned and the teams prepare for next season. The local tournament usually includes competitors from various organizations, referred to as the interoffice competition.
Softball has traditionally enjoyed the most success abroad for Belize. Teams have routinely won medals in regional competitions in both Central America and the Caribbean.
A small local tennis association holds frequent competitions for men and women, though it does not compete outside Belize.

by Jack Loechner on Oct 30, 12:00 AM
Prominent commentators have expressed concern that growing use of the internet would be harmful to democratic deliberation, but a new survey, by the Pew Internet & American Life Project in collaboration with the University of Michigan School of Information survey, belies the worry.

Most Mothers Say Advertisers Don't Recognize Their Needs as Mothers
by Jack Loechner on Oct 30, 12:00 AM
Maria Bailey, author of "Marketing to Moms: Getting Your Piece of the Trillion Dollar Market" surveyed more than 600 moms to uncover their attitudes on marketing. The purpose of the study was to quantify the opinions of moms regarding advertising for products and services targeted to mothers and its impact on them as consumers. Bailey concludes that marketers and advertisers are missing their target by not speaking to them with a message that is relevant, valuable, and in a language they understand.

by Jack Loechner on Oct 24, 12:00 AM
A new report series from Knowledge Networks/SRI finds that households with higher incomes or children are much more likely to own a range of media technologies, from PCs to high-speed Internet access to DVD players. By comparison, the "digital divide" between different ethnic and age groups is less severe, though still substantial in some cases.

Consumer Spending Plans Favor Bush Ratings
by Jack Loechner on Oct 24, 12:00 AM
According to the latest BIGresearch Consumer Intentions and Action survey, the way people feel about spending their discretionary dollars may say a lot about how people plan on voting in the presidential election,. In October says BIGresearch, several of the influences on shopping behaviors are improving. It seems to be good for President Bush. For example, the percentage of consumers who said they've become "more practical" in their purchase behaviors (38.6%) reached its lowest level since September of 2002 (37.1%). Fewer also said they are focusing on Needs over Wants than at any other time.

In the underworld
Meet Brian Skerry, a corrugated-box salesman from Uxbridge. Once you've processed that snapshot and think you know who he is, meet Brian Skerry, globe-circling underwater photographer for National Geographic and other top magazines. His was a simple transformation, if you call 20 years of hard work simple.
Skerry learned to dive in a backyard pool at 15, earned his scuba certification, and soon was spending countless hours swimming among New England's many shipwrecks, which is dangerous diving because of the region's strong currents, murky waters and threats of entanglement. But the rough conditions allowed Skerry to perfect both his diving and his photography, and when he snared his first National Geographic assignment a decade ago, shooting one such local wreck, he got it right.
Since then, he has shot features on sharks, marlins, whales, and tuna. To reach assignments, he has traveled by helicopters, snowmobiles, and canoes, has lived on fishing boats and in undersea dwellings, and has shot atop tropical reefs and under Arctic ice.
Recently he photographed right whales off New Zealand, an almost mystical experience. "There were days when I was at the bottom at 70 feet, and here comes this bus swimming down," he said in an interview. "I'm standing on the bottom, and as it comes down I get on my knees, lean over backwards - my scuba tank is now digging into the sand. . . . It came within inches. Here's this softball-size whale eye looking at me. But then it stops, stops on a dime. It's just hovering there, and literally one flick of its tail, and it would have crushed me like a bug. But it doesn't. It was just highly curious."
In recent years, Skerry has specialized in documenting the rising environmental threats to marine life. "The oceans are in trouble," Skerry says. "There are some serious problems out there that I believe are not clear to many people. . . . Photography can be a powerful instrument for change."
Skerry speaks at the New England Aquarium, 1 Central Wharf on Boston Harbor, at 7 p.m. Monday (Dec. 1), with a reception to follow. His lecture is free, though registration is required. Contact Vickie Cataldo at 617-973-0235 or e-mail her at firstname.lastname@example.com.

I was facing a simialr problem as well. I ended up buying dry plate holders on ebay for modern camera (thickness). Oddly enough my 8X10 is an Imerial View Camera from 1903. Those dry plate holders SUCK! They are way too difficult to "safely" load your glass. Some of the holders have metal clasps that will severly contaminate your wetplates as well.
I was given a GREAT book. Primitive Photography "A guide to making cameras, lenses, and Calotypes." By Alan Greene. This book has detailed info on making holders for use in modern cameras. It is a different process but if you convert his wet paper process holder (the paper is sandwitched between 2 sheets of glass) it is not too much modification to convert it to wet plate, and it will be easier to load them into the holder. The materials are around 35.00 to 40.00 USD. I found it well worth it.

Pearl Earrings
Laguna Pearl offers a wide array of high quality pearl earrings including black pearl earrings, white south sea pearl earrings, and many more. From basic pearl stud earrings to high-end Tahitian pearl earrings, our impressive collection of hundreds of styles can meet your needs for any upcoming occasion.
Pearl Earrings
People have prized pearls since time immemorial. Archaeological evidence shows that the pearl trade in the coastal cities of the Arabian Peninsula goes back many thousands of years, far older than any agricultural product. Poets and historians wrote about the beauty and rarity of pearls in some of humanity's earliest works of literature, and every ancient culture that knew about pearls placed great value on them. Among the many items made with pearls, earrings have always been one of the most popular.
There are several types of pearl earrings. One of the most classic styles is the stud earring in which the pearl forms ornament like a button with a post in the back. The post goes through the wearer's pierced ear and is held on with an ear nut. A more modern look gaining popularity in recent years is the chandelier earring. Here, there are several branches hanging to different lengths from the base of the earring. These earrings attract a lot of attention because they tend to be long and flamboyant. Clip earrings are attached to the ear using a small metal clip, making them suitable for pierced or non-pierced ears. Drop earrings hang in a straight line from the base. On these earrings, the pearl may stand alone or be grouped with other stones or charms.
The pearls earrings are made from are now more beautiful than ever. Round shapes were once difficult to attain, but they are now common along with various asymmetrical or baroque shapes. They have a soft, satiny luster that pleases the eye, and colors that were once unusual, like pink, lavender and silver, are common today. Some of the finest cultured pearls are the Akoyas, perfect spheres with a rich luster and overtones of cream, silver or rose. There are also South Sea pearls, which come in white and golden varieties. For those who prefer something truly unusual, there are black Tahitian pearls.
When purchasing pearl earrings, it's important to get them from a reputable, well-established merchant like Laguna Pearl. Here you can find an assortment of beautifully-shaded, symmetrical pearls in settings of impeccable design. For high-quality pearls in jewelry of exceptional beauty, come to Laguna Pearl.

RaboDirect Pro12: Connacht hold of Treviso
Last Updated: 03/11/12 8:21pm
Gavin Duffy: Scored Connacht's second try
Connacht secured an 18-3 victory over Treviso in the RaboDirect Pro12 clash at Galway.
Danie Poolman crowned his home debut with a try and Gavin Duffy also touched down for the Irish Province while fly-half Dan Parks kicked kicked two penalties and a conversion.
Tiernan O'Halloran, fresh from training with the Ireland squad, made an early incision and Parks pinged the opening penalty through the posts in the seventh minute.
The former Scotland international added a second penalty before showing great awareness to dink through a kick which led to the westerners' first try.
Robbie Henshaw led the chase onto Parks' well-weighted kick, toe-poking it on and the onrushing Poolman did well to score after some assistance from O'Halloran. Parks converted.
Treviso did improve in the second period and seemingly lifted their game after replacement Giulio Toniolatti saw yellow on the hour mark.
Alberto Di Bernardo raised their hopes of a late push for a losing bonus point as he slotted a 61st minute penalty.
He struck the post with a second penalty attempt, eight minutes from time, before Connacht produced a strong finish to settle the issue.
Parks watched a penalty kick fade away to the right, but replacement John Muldoon's determined run from the restart took him past two defenders and the ball was worked wide for Duffy to dive in at the corner.
Connacht closed out their third win of the league campaign, moving up to eighth place in the process, with a late try from fit-again captain Gavin Duffy.

So I bought a new bag of grain last night, pulled all the old grain from the bottom of the bin, and put the new stuff in and dumped the older grain ontop.
This morning my gelding (whom doesn't bat an eye at ANY source of food) kinda picked at his food, ate alittle and wandered around then ate the rest when my friend who feeds put the bucket up to his face.
I get to the barn tonight and notice that my grain has grain mites. :( they weren't all over the grain but were on the lid and infested on the feed scoop.
The took all the grain out. Threw it away and washed the grain bin,lid, feed buckets and scoop with white vinegar and water. Let it all dry and thankfully my friend had some left over grain from when she fed the same thing I did, so I used that and just put the bag back in my bin in my big storage container where all my feed is.
Now I'm currently freaking out because I read they get into everything and I have alot of supplements and meds they could get into that I'm not okay on replacing as its pretty expensive.
How bad is it to get rid of these buggers? I heard bleach does it but all I had was vinegar at the barn.
Any input greatly appericiated. *sigh* :(

5.0 out of 5 stars Sharp Detail, Great Item, Great Mara,
Mr. L. B. P. Daley "sni9er" (uk) - See all my reviews
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Star Wars Mara Jade Bishoujo Statue (Toy)
Another Beautiful quality Kotobukiya Statue, my wife purchased the Boba Fett model last year and in return I've purchased her this, it arrives in a tissue wrapped glossy black presentation box, the fine detail on show on the model is sharp and pristine, will definitely be buying from the range again.
the model itself is a great take on Mara Jade with the body suit being blue centered over the standard seen Black, obviously designed in Anime style facial features are more anime than anything else, but not to jaunting at all
5.0 out of 5 stars Great quality, top notch!,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Star Wars Mara Jade Bishoujo Statue (Toy)
As i said for my previous statue review, this one is also fantastic. Her quality is top notch, and she's a fair bit larger than most other Bishoujo statues. Face-wise she is good, not the best, with a bit of a doll-ish look to her, but to be expected from this range. If i levelled one complaint with her, it's that her hips are too wide in comparison to the original illustration. Otherwise, this is the most detailed Bishoujo i've bought, with immaculate tiny details everywhere to be seen. She's almost certain to gain in value, as most reviews give her high marks, with the factory in Japan almost sold out of stock at this time.
5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars,
This review is from: Star Wars Mara Jade Bishoujo Statue (Toy)

The East Penn School District is pleased you are considering volunteering your time to assist the staff and students of the district.
Volunteer – A volunteer is an adult serving in an unpaid position in which they are individually responsible for the welfare of a child or have "direct contact with children" (care, supervision, guidance or control of children, or routine interaction with children).
For those that wish to be a Volunteer, you are required to submit a Pennsylvania Criminal History Record (Act 34) and a Child Abuse History Clearance (Act 151) in addition to the notarized Volunteer Affidavit to the Human Resources Office located at 800 Pine Street in Emmaus. Copies of the Affidavit are available in the Human Resources Office. It is the individual's responsibility to pay for the required clearances. Per the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE), updated clearances will be required every 3 years in order to continue as a Volunteer. Clearances must be less than one year old at the time of submission. Original forms must be brought to the District Human Resources Office, located at 800 Pine Street in Emmaus, on either Tuesdays or Thursdays from 8:00AM – 3:00PM. The district has notary services (drivers license required for notary service) free of charge.
1. The Pennsylvania Criminal Record Check can be done either online or by mail. The online results are available almost immediately, while if you choose to mail the form, it could take up to 8 weeks for the results to be returned to you.

Payment may be made online at the time of registration using a debit or credit card. Payment may also be made with a Money Order or Cashier's Check at the fingerprint location. Money Orders and Cashier's Checks must be made out to COGENT SYSTEMS. NO CASH, PERSONAL CHECKS and NO ELECTRONIC PAYMENTS for background checks will be accepted at the fingerprint sites.
