Though some felt lifted by a speech extolling the virtues of inclusion, Keyes bristled at Democratic principles he believes have failed America for decades. As the buzz over Obama grew in the days after that speech, Keyes began to see an opportunity for Republicans to attack those Democratic beliefs.
By the end of the night Wednesday, the group had selected Keyes, who is expected on Sunday to officially accept the challenge he heard in Obama's rhetoric.
Keyes "said [he has] read enough about him to know that speech was very typical of Democratic candidates who vote way to the left and then try to run to the middle," said state Sen. Dave Syverson of Rockford, the committee member who pushed for Keyes' nomination.
Keyes, who lives in Maryland, will announce his final decision at a 2 p.m. Sunday rally of supporters in Arlington Heights. GOP officials said Keyes assured them last week that he would accept.
Some see Keyes' entry into the Senate race as an opportunist's play for publicity. His close supporters and longtime friends say Keyes may be opportunistic, but his deeper motivations lie in his yearning to spread his conservative message in a closely watched Senate race.
"His heart and soul motivate him," said his longtime friend and chief of staff, Mary Parker Lewis, whose husband was a graduate student with Keyes at Harvard. "For somebody of his capability, his ambition is a classical ambition. It is not a modern advancement of his personality or his career path."
"He's a strong conservative," said Harvey Mansfield, Keyes' Harvard adviser. "If he were a man dominated by personal ambition, he would have been a liberal or at least a moderate, because he would have made his way up more easily, because most blacks side with the Democratic Party."
Keyes, a former radio and cable-TV talk show host who turned 54 on Saturday, is known for his rousing speaking style steeped in Christian moral philosophy.
He is often denounced by Democrats and dismissed in media reports as an uncompromising abortion foe whose emphasis on the Judeo-Christian roots of the United States Constitution puts him outside the mainstream.
Keyes has only been a loser in politics--he was defeated twice in races for the U.S. Senate seat from Maryland and also mounted two quixotic runs for president, in 1996 and 2000.
Nonetheless, he has a built-in base in the Christian right and among other conservatives who share his sometimes dire assessment of the state of American mores--and the American Republic.
"I don't believe that America ends up as some mediocrity in history," Keyes said in April at a Dallas rally backing the display of the 10 Commandments in public buildings. "We are either going to be a force for great good, as we have seen, or a force for great evil, as we must become if we do not succeed in mobilizing those forces who mean to stand up against those who have declared implacable war upon God in our public life."
A standout student
Keyes entered politics after years of scholarship and government service. The son of a soldier, Keyes grew up on military bases as a bookish boy who early on learned the power of public speaking.
In the 1960s, while his father was stationed at Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio, Keyes enrolled in Robert G. Cole High School. He became a standout debater, was selected for the National Honor Society and was ultimately elected president of Boys Nation. That election earned him the chance in 1967 to meet President Lyndon Johnson at the White House and speak before the American Legion state convention in Dallas--where he was enthusiastically received, even though his race put off some in the audience.
In past interviews, Keyes has said that early on he spurned sports to read books on government and philosophy. After starting college at Cornell University, he met classical scholar Allan Bloom, whom Keyes described in a 1999 interview with C-SPAN as "the most important teacher I had."
Already on the way to becoming a conservative, Keyes left Cornell after Vietnam War protests there and enrolled at Harvard, where he met many who now travel in the same conservative circles as he. At Harvard, he earned both a bachelor's and a PhD, writing his dissertation on the early writings of Alexander Hamilton.

Willie McGinest believes it's time for someone to step up and address Rob Gronkowski about his behavior. "If there were things that needed to be addressed when I was there, I'd have a conversation with that player, or we had other leaders in the locker room who would talk to him," McGinest told the Boston Herald on Friday. Well then, who should speak out and help straighten out Gronkowski, who was spotted once again this offseason dancing with his shirt off in Las Vegas? "The only guy on that offense that could probably say anything is Tom (Brady)," McGinest said. "He has the years in. Or maybe Wes (Welker). It has to be guys (Gronkowski is) around all the time. ... Someone who's been there for a while. But Tom might be the one. I'm sure someone will have a word with him." Patriots fans would much rather see Gronkowski ditch his risky tactics and return to the field, considering how vital Gronk has been to the Patriots offense since he was drafted in 2010. He has scored at least...

Did I say only GM's know what they're doing? I responded to your post where you said "making it hard on ourselves". The only person he's made it more difficult on is himself. But again, he's the GM...THAT'S HIS JOB.
You think I don't make sense....yet you want to have me believe that just because the Habs could of saved 3M per year on Subban's deal, it means they would of been better off for him.
You don't explain how that money would be spent, you don't explain on who? But that's not surprising because you can't. You have no idea how that money would be spent and how it would turn out
Perfect example is the Cole/Ryder swap...Habs fans were ecstatic at getting Cole's contract off the books, Ryder was gonna be a cheap rental for the rest of the year and the Habs were gonna have oodles of cash this summer to spend and solve all their problems
What happens?
A few weeks later MB signs Desharnais to a 4 year contract eating up almost all of the cap space that was freed up in the Cole/Ryder swap
Back to square one
Edit: Look at the summer the Habs had a ton of cap space, they went out and traded for Gomez, signed Cammy, Gionta, Gill, etc...how did that work out for them?
Cap space is great, but it doesn't guarantee a damn thing...furthermore, I asked this question earlier and not shockingly, none of you pro-capspace warriors were able to answer it. But since the lockout, how many of the Stanley Cup winner, or hell, even final 4 teams were teams that had a lot of cap space left?
I'd venture to say, and granted i'm just guessing here, but I'd say that all the recent Cup winners, and finalists, are all teams that spent up to the cap and had very little cap space. Because successful teams understand that it's not how much you spend, it WHO you spend it on. The teams that accumulate cap space are the same teams that are in the basement every year.

40 CFR 86.1527 - Idle test procedure; overview.
(a) The idle emission test procedure is designed to determine the raw concentration (in percent) of CO in the exhaust flow at idle. The test procedure begins with the engine at normal operating temperature. (For example, the warm-up for an engine may be the transient engine or chassis dynamometer test.)
(b) Raw emission sampling must be made before dilution occurs from a single exhaust pipe in which exhaust products are homogeneously mixed. The configuration for dual-exhaust systems must also allow for raw emission measurements, which will require that an additional "Y" pipe be placed in the exhaust system before dilution.

Dan Burke of Religion New Service wrote a provocative story from the Lambeth Conference that received too little attention.
CANTERBURY, England — For five years, conservative Episcopalians eager to escape their liberal American church have been building ties with African Anglicans half a world away.
But they have few connections with black Americans in their own back yard, say black Episcopal bishops gathered here for a once-a-decade meeting of Anglican prelates.
"It's something that I like to point out," said the Bishop Eugene Sutton,the first black Episcopal bishop in Maryland, "the historical anomaly of dioceses that have nothing to do with the black community going all the way to Africa to make these relationships."

It's not so hard to understand. It has nothing to do with race. But it also has nothing to do with theology. It has only to do with ideology – an "orthodoxy" of power.
Marc P Vance
This is nothing new. There are many (if perhaps apocryphal) stories of African-Americans in the Jim Crow South adopting Pidgin English, and "playing Africans" to pass, or just to see what would happen (I recall Angela Davis citing such a youthful experiment: I think her ploy was to claim being the daughter of a diplomat).
Generally, these pretend "Africans" received at least mystified, if not outright respectful, treatment from whites.
"Familiarity breeds contempt" 'n' all…
JC Fisher
While perceptive, Sutton's comment misses the point. These relationships have nothing to do with race but with belief, boundaries and purity codes.
I don't think Bishop Sutton missed the point, Paul. The American right uses the African's race as a tool in the arguments within the Anglican Communion, to portray themselves as the champions of people whom they happily disenfranchise at home. But I think you are right about the basis of the relationships.
Certainly the Diocese of Fort worth has no African American priests. We do have African priests, and at least one white priest who is canonically resident in Rwanda.

Meet Joe Cox: Georgia quarterback
So, Cowboys fans, feeling good about Georgia's loss of quarterback Matthew Stafford to the NFL? Finding comfort in the fact that his replacement is Joe Cox, a fifth-year, career backup?
Don't get too comfortable. Remember, Mark Sanchez parlayed his one year running the Southern Cal offense into the No. 5 pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. Closer to home, Texas Tech's trio of one-year wonders – Cody Hodges, Sonny Cumbie and B.J. Symons – all took turns leading the Big 12 in passing earlier this decade. And there's D.J. Shockley, who spun his one turn as the Georgia quarterback into the 2005 SEC championship. Could Cox become a similar single-season sensation, with a breakout planned in the season opener against Oklahoma State on Sept. 5 in Stillwater? "I don't know the critiques he's being given by the commentators or the scouting reports," said Bulldogs left tackle Trinton Sturdivant, "but when we look at him, we look at a ball player. "And when we look at him, we're ready to play." OK, so Cox is not Stafford, the No. 1 overall pick in last spring's NFL Draft. And at 6-foot-1, 198 pounds, he's not particularly imposing. Neither are Cox's career stats: 58 pass attempts, 33 completions, 432 yards, five touchdowns. In the Big 12, that's a good day. Still, it may be dangerous to assume a significant dropoff from Stafford to Cox. "I don't know about a huge dropoff, but it's going to be hard to fill those shoes," said Cowboys linebacker Patrick Lavine, almost salivating at the thought. "There's a good reason Stafford was the No. 1 pick in the draft. "I still consider (Cox) a rookie quarterback. There's nothing like starting off behind center. It's a totally new experience. I'm glad. I'm ready." Cox can claim one career start, a win over Ole Miss, although that was three years ago as a redshirt freshman. His greatest moments as a Bulldog also came that year, when he stepped off the bench to lead a 14-13 rally past Colorado, throwing two late touchdown passes. Otherwise, he's handled mostly mop-up duty behind Stafford. From that, however, there's also something the Dawgs are drawing from. In last season's lopsided loss to Florida, with Georgia trailing by 46 points, Cox was thrown into the fray late.

I asked for your Facebook Fan Page frustrations in my last post (long, long ago). Thankfully, Facebook is in the midst of an upgrade that will improve the way you administer your Fan Page and solve a lot of the problems that you mentioned. See...if I just wait long enough, Facebook will fix all of the problems, and I will never have to post on this blog! (Kidding.)
I received an email from Facebook last night which listed some of the Fan Page improvements. The email states that admins can upgrade to the new Fan Page now, or wait until March 10th to be automatically upgraded. I have no patience, so I immediately chose to upgrade my page.
Here are the four new features that were highlighted in the email from Facebook:
This is huge! There was no way to tell when someone posted on the Wall of your Fan Page or on any of your photos. This was very inconvenient for a page administrator. You would have to constantly monitor your page and photos to check for new comments. Someone could have posted a comment or question on a very old photo, and you never would know about it unless you periodically checked (which is time-consuming if you have many photo albums).
This change also means that you can see who "Likes" your Fan Page. I know that there is a box that lists all of your Fans, but now you can get a notification for each "Like", instead of paging through the box to figure out who recently "liked" your Fan Page.
2. A place to showcase photos along the top of your page
Just like the new Facebook profile for people, some of your photos are displayed across the top of your page. I could take this or leave it. It automatically shows the last five photos that you posted on your Wall, in random order. I wish I could control what photos appear, since these photos could make a bad first impression. (I think the photos that are on my page today are kind of lame.) But, they might also entice a potential fan into sticking around by clicking on the photos. And maybe the clickers will eventually convert to fans. Which is the whole point of this stuff.
3. The ability to Like and post on other pages as your page
Yay! You now have the choice to "Use Facebook as Page". It is strange wording, but the bottom line is this: instead of your name showing up when you "Like" something or when you leave a comment on another Fan Page, the name of your Fan Page shows up. I love this! The whole point of Facebook Fan Pages are to promote your business and/or blog. Personally, I don't always want my name to show up when I like a page or leave a comment on another Fan Page. I would prefer to leave a comment "on behalf of" freshvintage. And now I can!
One thing to keep in mind is that this only works when you interact with other Fan Pages. For example, you can't leave a comment on a person's Wall on behalf of your Fan Page (unless that person has wide-open security and lets anyone post on their Wall). And your Fan Page has to "Like" the other Fan Page before you can leave a comment.
Despite that limitation, I guarantee that this will cause a rapid increase in the number of fans on your Fan Pages. Facebook readers will start seeing the name of your Fan Page (instead of your real name), and will subsequently click through to your page. And hopefully click "Like"!
4. A news feed for your page
You've always had the ability to add another Fan page as your Favorite (more recently known as "Liking" the page). This didn't really do anything other than add a box to your sidebar that showed all of your Favorite pages. This is what it used to look like:
But now, you can see a News Feed of your favorite pages when you are "Use Facebook as Page". So, instead of seeing the News Feed for all of your friends, you can actually see the News Feed of your Fan page's favorite pages. I know - it is confusing. This isn't a big deal for me, because I already "Like" the pages in my personal account, so they show up in my personal News Feed anyway.
What Else Changed?
- No more tabs across the top
They moved to the left sidebar. I don't get a ton of traffic to my tabs, so this isn't a huge deal to me.
- The Everyone Link
Everyone link shows all of the posts on your Fan Page's Wall, whether they were written by you or your fans. The "freshvintage" link only shows the status updates that you wrote on your Wall. This functionality already existed, but the links had a different name. I think this slight change makes the filter more obvious.
Don't Be Afraid of Change
I've only had limited interaction with the new design, but I am ecstatic about these changes. They will make Fan Page administration easier and will give a boost to your business by making Fan Pages more engaging. My favorite change is the notifications when someone leaves a comment - this is a huge time-saver for me.
I would love to hear your thoughts on these changes! Did you upgrade your page yet? Or will you wait until March 10th?
P.S. Here's my freshvintage Fan Page, in case you are new to my blogs.

This is all from a single player experience, I assume the game is slightly easier in multiplayer. Having gone through it now there's quite a few things I would have liked to know beforehand to make it less of a pain. It's fairly difficult but extremely backloaded, I went in with level 50 balanced (no grinding necessary) and didn't continue until Stage 6, around that time enemies start having two to four times as much hp and hit two to three times as hard. Before that point its pretty straightforward, bosses have a shitload of HP but they're fairly similar to how they were before. If you have trouble with the level 2 boss then just buy a whole ton of lives (same goes with the plant boss) and it should work out okay.
I think a level 50 stance song is virtually mandatory, the best one is training wheels for the last few levels, though I didn't bother getting it until the last level. Bosses drop 17 (!) mithril on DD so there's not really much grinding necessary regardless unless you're trying to get level 50 with every song. If you started out the difficulty with level 50 wheels you could probably beat the game without continuing assuming you get the "buddy" in level 6 (6-7 hours roughly). The buddy is one of the hidden trophies, after the central arrow pit fight near the middle of the level you'll come to a ladder and 2 gravestones, duck between the gravestones 6 or 7 times and he'll spawn. He randomly drops health for you, from intervals ranging between 30 second and 5 minutes, anecdotally it seems to be the most common right after you lose a life (resulting in obscenties being thrown at the little bastard); he shows up in every level except boss fights themselves until you turn off the game, then you have to go get him again. The last part of DD is the hard part so you might want to do it in separate sittings, get familiar with the first part of Chapter 6 so you don't have to waste too much time.
Chapter 7 is likely where you'll first notice your HP disappearing sans Training Wheels, the Dr. Williams can take out about 60% of your hp in a combo. Gleam dodging isn't necessarily that useful, as you still won't kill them in a single combo and the "and a half" punch will bite you in the ass. If you wind up low on HP midfight leave one guy alive and wait for your buddy to drop health, its really annoying and tedious but its better than continuing or losing a life. Absolutely do not do the bonus level as fighting 4 Abobos at once and the bullshit platforming section aren't worth the effort on this difficulty.
Chapter 8 is very similar to 7, I'll just add that you should go to the shop (ride the falling platform down with an arrow next to it) and buy a ton of lives. The Plant boss is fairly easy, the upper right and upper left corners are close to safezones and also where you'll do most of your damage. Take out the right head first as the Shark is relatively non threatening. The T-Rex head does a whole shitload of damage to 50 Balanced, 80% or so of your life, but that's where your 9 lives come in and make this fight something of a pushover.
Chapter 9 is the hardest part of the game, which might seem odd considering there isn't even a boss. However you have to ride the platform at the beginning and fight a whole bunch of enemies; you'll pretty much want to do that whole section without losing a life, we'll get to why. Normal enemies are simple enough, light light heavy > toss off the platform, spin kick if there's 3 enemies in range. Grab the bat off the Dr. Williams and try to hit the Roxy's with it, they're going to be the pain in the ass here. Falling off the platform takes off about 40% of your life, the Roxys only suicide via landing on the right side of the platform and plunging into the left, which is a huge pain to dodge. Presumably much easier with training wheels, but oh well.
Now on to the hard(er) part: Skeleton versions of enemies do not stun at all and they have about 20-25 light punches worth of HP, if said enemy has a weapon then they can break out of your punch combo and take off half your life in one hit. Just be hyper conservative here, wait for health from your buddy, stay on one side of an abyss in those fights, and use the vampiric club to heal yourself (6 club hits isn't enough to kill one skeleton, though its close) Skeleton Shinobi don't hit especially hard but they can get out of a continuous punch-lock. For the last section of the level take off Spin Kick and replace it with something that doesn't put you in the air (i.e. fireball). The wand in the center of the arena is sort of useful but again enemies have so much HP it doesn't really do much. Lots of rolling from side to side and waiting for more HP from buddy here.
Chapter 10 is not as bad as you think, but Training Wheels is virtually mandatory. You want to go into the penultimate fight with 6 or 7 lives (for explosive pots do 3 punches then roll backwards), the hardest two parts are the "blacked out" section and the two sorceror > Obobo section. For the black out try to keep the enemies away from the pillars so you can still see what they're doing. Spam the fuck out of spin kick on the Obobo and hope for the best. Since there's not that many enemies this is one of the few sections where gleaming is pretty useful. For the latter section just be hyper conservative again, the lightning strike isn't that difficult to dodge consistently and sorcs move at a very slow pace. Its your choice if you want to mess with the Obobo toe to toe, alternatively you can just wait for your magic to restore and spam more spin kicks. For the Elevator section just make sure you're not aligned with the opposite side so "Commando" Williams can't shoot you (70% of your HP with 50 balanced), the AI on ground opponents is really dumb next to gaps. I used the right side to deal with the roxys, mixture of dodge + heavy attacks and spin kicks in the corner. For the Obobos you can just sit there and wait for magic to fireball them to death, takes about 15 fireballs and 5 minutes of excitement...
On to the annoying fight. You should have 6 or 7 lives and level 50 Training Wheels, personally I also had level 50 Balanced so I swapped stances a whole bunch during this fight. The only way I've found to reliably damage Skull is spam spin kick until you run out of mana (and in my case swap stances back to TW), you can occasionally get in a few light combos on the side but 90% of my damage comes from that. Maybe another ability is useful, maybe not. Stay away from being directly in front of him so you don't get smashed by his 3 hit combo. For "Immolation" you have to hit Marian with an air heavy attack to get her out of doing the boom (50% of your HP with TW), for the teleport its actually easier than the equivalent in the first boss fight, just stick to a corner of the screen and continuously roll or jump kick away from the center. This fight is pretty random so you could probably beat it with 2 or 3 lives or just get fucked and lose with 7 and the best possible setup.
The game pulls a Metroid Prime: Echoes in that the absolute final boss fight has a continue point right before it (though the whole rest of the game doesn't), I didn't need to use this function as he seems to have about the same amount of HP he had on Dragon. The only thing I'll say here is avoid trying to damage him in his teleport phase, yes its possible to continuously gleam and get light punches but if he ever hits you you're in the doom combo and presumably lose a life (did about 80% on Dragon, didn't get hit by it on DD), just avoid his pattern attacks and get in your jump kick strings then. I don't know how the "drop HP/lives" function works in this fight, I assume its time based but it didn't happen on DD in the short amount of time it took to beat the boss.
Final setup: 50 Balanced 50 Training Wheels 50 Jump Kick 50 Fireball
Time: 11:40 (wasted about 2 hours doing achievements and what have you)
Williams: Remarkably dangerous for cannon fodder, though pretty easy to stunlock. The 1 2 combo is supposed to be the easiest thing to gleam in the game but the enemies aren't aggressive enough so you wind up missing it 20-25% of the time, not worth it unless they have a weapon. "1 2" becomes 1 and a half 2 and a half on later versions, if you gleam the first punch then the "and a half" will hit you.
Linda: The easiest enemy in the game, more HP than Williams but really easy to Gleam, just get close and wait for the high kick. If you don't want to risk it simple punch combos and throws work fine. For whips you'll have a tough time dodging, just do a light light heavy string as fast as possible. Skeleton versions with whips are a pain in the ass.
Obobo: The most bullshit enemy type, his "No/Nope" attack is incredibly hard to dodge and impossible (?) to gleam and he can use it out of any animation. I generally save magic for them and then try to gleam some of the easier attacks. Just running away until your magic refills works too.
Robots: Throw them.
Geishas: No need to rush here, calmly wait for them to do whichever animation then walk up and light light heavy, repeat once or twice. Using the fans they drop against them works well.
Shinobi: In DD this will be the first enemy you notice having a ridiculous amount of HP, though later versions of every other enemy will too. You can gleam the introduction attack and the high combo, but you're generally better off just trying to stun lock. Jump kicking in seems to work best much like most other enemies.
Roxy: This annoying flying fuck is pretty difficult to actually hit, the dodge + heavy attack seems to be the best way to damage them but unfortunately you fight them on narrow platforms a lot so it doesn't really work out. 2 level 50 spin kicks kill them, though 2 level 43's do not.
Sorcerors: Be very deliberate about damaging them, every animation they have is slow and easy to dodge; though they do have an asston of HP. Cornering them might result in getting a lightning ball in a difficult to dodge place. You almost always have weapons available for them, use them at will.

My girlfriend doesn't text me as much anymore?
Me and my girlfriend have been going out for 2 weeks now, not much. Well she always texted me first everyday and we would text the whole day,she be... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
girls LOVE it when you text them first. in fact, she could be pulling back to see if you'll initiate anything. yes, you texted her first for the first time, but it wasn't to say something sweet like "good morning" or "how's your day" it was about a problem. I know this sounds bad, but girls expect guys to show interest first, and from what it sounds like, she's been showing a lot of interest but in a girl's mind when she's always initiating the text or the call it feels like you're not as interested in her as she is in you. step up to the plate and start texting her randomly to say sweet things or just to let her know she's on your mind. you have to show interest too, or else she's just going to assume that you're not as interested and move on.
What Girls Said 5
Its probably not something big, I've noticed that as relationships go on, you text less. And she's probably been busy during summer or just doesn't want to stay up that late anymore. And phone and internet takes on relationships are different, if you haven't seen her for... wait. You've been going out for 2 weeks and you haven't seen her in 2 weeks? Anyway, the person starts to be seperated from them to their phone. Just chill and when you see her it will be all right
Lol I went through the same thing except we would talk on the phone from 7-4ish in the morning on a school night then be at school together ! I started not texting back and talking of the phone because I didn't want to bore him, I didn't want to burn it out, but I already had! keep the texts short and sweet and build the excitement for when you do see each other :) I didn't always have the most interesting things to say or sometimes I would just be doing the same thing I was doing when he just asked in a text an hour ago
GIrls like when you text them first. When they have to text the guy first they think that they are bugging the guy and don't want him to withdraw from them. They think they are being needy or clingy so probably stop and want the guy to make the move. I love it when the guy takes the initiative and pursues me cause it makes me feel wanted. If I have to text him first then I kind of start losing interest because I feel he isn't returning the interest back to me. Guy's shouldn't play hard to get cause girls don't go with that mind game. A guy plays hard to get with me and I'm out of there looking for a guy who can step up to the plate and be a man.

Cienna's Beautiful Hypnobabies Hospital Birth
First I want to say I started the Hypnobabies homestudy late (about 34 weeks) and that I had a really hard time not falling asleep in them. Toward the end I would fall asleep to them at night and then listen to them again in the morning before I got out of bed. I tried to practice my on/off and center switch but wasn't very good at it. After going and going all week, I finally told DH that I didn't have anything planned for the rest of the time I was pregnant. "Good, let's keep it that way" is how he responds. He doesn't like being overscheduled. So Friday night we finally had a relaxing night. We watched a movie. I kept putting DH hand on my belly so he could feel how the baby was pushing or exercising. We joked that it liked to be up at night when I wanted to be sleeping. So we went to bed at 11 ish I think. If this was part of my birthing time, I was pretty clueless. I didn't think anything of it.
I woke up at 1:50 am because I thought I peed my pants. But I had to pee a lot more. And more. DH asked what was up and I said I thought my water broke. He said "just go back to bed." So I tried. But I couldn't. I didn't want to just lay there and think about it. So I went to the computer and worked on it. I put on my birthing day affirmations CD to help me be in a positive mindset. I used a computer website (thanks to whoever put that great resource up!) to time my pressure waves. They were about 5 minutes apart and 45 second long from the time I started timing them. I decided that maybe I should try to relax during the pressure waves. So I would breathe and use a "peace" cue. I was kind of disappointed because they were starting to hurt a little. But I felt like I could relax a little better doing the peace cue. So I did that until maybe 4:30 am and I thought it was time I focused and lay down to relax better and listen to my easy first stage birthing CD.
I called the midwife and woke up DH. I was trying to let everyone sleep as long as possible. I thought that I would probably give birth about 8 or 9 am because that is how long my other births were. A neighbor came to stay with my other girls so they could sleep. DH and I got in the car. I was listening to the Easy First stage Birthing CD the whole time and I think that helped me try to relax. I tried the On/Off lightswitch but never got the hang of it so I just used the Peace" cue. DH didn't run any red lights because he said I looked
like I was doing well. He used his "relax" cue and put his hand on my shoulder while I had pressure waves. I was breathing and I felt my hands get tingly and I thought, "I think I am hyperventilating" And with every contraction I started to feel tingly in my hips.
I walked into the hospital and then got in a wheelchair so I could relax more. The ladies at the triage were so kind. They pulled out all the consent form but after they looked at me they said "you better get her back here and check her out. The midwife was there. That last contraction was the one that I thought "I don't know if I can do this anymore." I held onto DH as he comforted me. I got onto the bed and DH pulled off my pants and shoes. The midwife checked me and asked if I felt pushy. I thought "pushy, I don't know" but my body took that as a cue that it was okay to push.
The midwife, Darlene, said "she is fully dilated and at station +2. I couldn't believe it. I didn't have time to think though because my body wanted to push and all inhibition were gone. I asked that they put the bed up so I could be semi reclining. DH said that her head came out so quickly and then the next contraction her body came out. It was 6:06 am and DH said "it's a girl."
The best thing was that it didn't hurt. I didn't scream or yell like I did with my first. I was so fearful that I would tear because I had gone so quickly to pushing. I tried to do it slow. The only thing I wish is that I could have had a mirror to watch her being born. So they put the baby on my shirt. (I didn't have time to put the gown on.) They midwife checked for tears and there were none! I was ecstatic. It was over already, just when it was getting intense. DH keeps saying I looked so much more relaxed and comfortable than I did with the others.
We think all that Hypnobabies CDs helped. Even though I slept through a lot of them. They got us to a room in about 15 minutes and I went in to take a shower while DH and the nurses took care of Cienna. I still couldn't believe it was all over so quickly. I was so happy to be free of contractions. And my other girls were still home sleeping! Good thing I didn't wait until everyone had woke up on their own to get to the hospital. I can't believe how close I was to having that baby in the car. I can't believe I didn't know how close I was to having her. I am so grateful that Cienna has no problems and that I didn't have any either. With the other two there was always something we had to check up on (heart murmur, hearing, tongue tie, jaundice) and I was glad that I didn't have any stitches or any excessive bleeding like I had had in the past. I attribute that to the pregnancy tea!
All I can say is "wow," our bodies really do know how to have babies if we let them. I am so thankful for this remarkable experience and a new little daughter. We just need to figure out how to take care of her now!
Thanks for all your support and help!

Australian luxury motor yacht builder Oceanfast has launched the first of its new range of vessels - the 36 metre 'Eendracht' – the name of the first Dutch explorer to visit the coast of WA – soon to be followed by a 48 metre currently under construction.
The 36m "Eendracht" was named after the first Dutch explorer to visit the coast of WA.
The vessel's owner – Austal founder John Rothwell - hopes to spend several months each year onboard 'Eendracht' after stepping down from the day-to-day running of the business in August after 20 years at the helm. John will continue to act as Non Executive Chairman with the company.
Searching for a well finished, practical vessel to suit his interest in long distance cruising, Mr Rothwell decided to utilise the word-class aluminium yacht building and engineering experience available in his own company – famous for award-winning motor yachts such as 'Aussie Rules'.
With a cruising speed of 12 knots and an impressive 3000 nautical mile range, 'Eendracht' is suited to exploring the most remote areas of Australia's vast coastline, as well as neighbouring international waters, in style and comfort.
The vessel's two MTU 8V 2000 diesel engines provide a maximum speed of 16 knots and economical fuel consumption of 120 litres per hour (including generators) at cruising speed. A smooth ride is assisted with the installation of an active fin stabiliser system.
Boasting a clean, modern and understated interior, with owner and guest areas comparable to that of a much larger vessel, 'Eendracht' offers unrivalled living space for a vessel of its size without sacrificing practicality.
Three guest rooms, each finished with American Oak timber veneer and boasting ensuites featuring gloss teak floors with white inlay, are situated on the lower deck located aft of the vessel's two crew cabins, with access to equipment lockers positioned within the yacht's bow.
Stairs lead up to the main deck's full beam 70sqm saloon, complete with floor-to-ceiling windows offering panoramic water views from both sides and access to a large undercover outdoor entertaining area via stainless steel sliding doors located aft.
Carved from a solid piece of Marri timber from Australia's south west is the saloon's showpiece two metre dining table, while a centrally located cabinet conceals a 42' LCD screen on a powered lift. Local jarrah furniture is featured throughout the vessel, with American Cherry timber veneers applied in the saloon as well in the owner's stateroom and ensuite, which is positioned across the entire beam forward of the saloon ensuring comfort and privacy. Separating the two areas is the culinary heart of the vessel - a fully appointed stainless steel galley.
Luxury and elegance are characteristics of the Eendracht.
Sun-lovers are well catered for by the upper deck's six-person heated Jacuzzi and sun decks, while stateof-the-art navigational and communication equipment is installed in the wheelhouse. Also onboard are 6.4 metre and 3.9 metre tenders for snorkelling and fishing trips.
'Eendracht' will soon commence charter operations based out of Cairns, Queensland following a seven week delivery voyage which includes several stops along Western Australia's northern coastline.
The 36 metre motor yacht is the first delivery of Oceanfast's new range of semi-custom private vessels designed for owners seeking a high quality, well engineered and functional yacht at a price level that makes sense.
Oceanfast's new range will be rounded out with 48 metre and 60 metre variants, each vessel designed to achieve a balance between style and practicality, while maintaining the quality construction and fitout synonymous with Oceanfast.
Construction is already underway on Oceanfast's 48 metre vessel, which is being built on spec and is due for completion in April 2009 at its facility in Henderson, Western Australia. The vessel will be available for delivery in May 2009.
The Oceanfast 48 will be equally at home cruising a remote coastline as it is docked in any of the world's finest marinas. Considering both aesthetics and ease of operation, the Oceanfast 48 can perform as a fully crewed super yacht on the charter market or equally can be operated short handed by an owner who wishes a more direct involvement and low profile cruising approach.
A well laid out engine room separates the four guest cabins from an aft lazarette supporting diving and leisure activities on the external swim platform. In the forward sections are the crew living areas incorporating four bunk cabins.
Living and entertainment space is abundant on the Oceanfast 48 starting with the teak lined aft deck which leads into a full beam saloon surrounded by panoramic windows that take you to the water's edge. A fully equipped galley separates the forward owner's cabin that also enjoys full beam comfort and privacy.
If outdoor entertainment appeals the upper deck provides the flexibility for every occasion. The large teak lined external deck can cater for an intimate dinner table setting or large party in combination with an indoor-outdoor lounge area connected via fully opening bi-fold doors.
The forward wheelhouse features an elevated lounge suite for guests to share the adventure on long range passages with direct access to a dual access cabin serving either the captain or additional guests depending on an owner's preferred configuration.
A large teak lined deck compliments the upper deck outdoor entertainment area with a large raised spa – sunpad – bar area located forward, all protected by a mix of fixed and removable overhead shade coverings.
Two MTU 10V 2000s producing 900kW each provide a maximum speed of 16 knots and a range of 4000nm at a cruising speed of 12 knots.

OSD board narrows down projects for potential referendum
Oregon School Board members will decide in the next few weeks whether or not to hold a multi-million dollar capital projects referendum in November that could exceed $50 million.
In the meantime, with a sizeable amount of debt set to come off the district's books, members have been weighing how much to ask for, and what projects should take priority. Aug. 25 is the last date for the board to approve a resolution to go to a Nov. 4 referendum.
At a referendum "work session" Monday night in preparation for an upcoming special meeting on Aug. 19, board members continued to whittle down a lengthy list of repairs, upgrades and new projects to include in the referendum. In recent weeks and months, the list has been pared to around $51 million of items that school officials have essentially agreed are among the highest priority.
District technology director Jon Tanner said narrowing down a list of projects to be funded by the referendum wasn't easy, though.
"When it comes to student learning, it's hard to say what's not a priority," he said.
Officials from district consultants Findorff Construction Company and Bray Architects said with debt coming off the books, the district is in a unique position to ask for around $40 million in a referendum without significantly raising the tax levy.
"It's not typical," said Christin Milsna of Findorff. "You're in a unique and very positive position here."
District finance director Andy Weiland said a $40 million capital projects referendum would amount to a rise of 2 cents per $1,000 in assessed property value, with zero valuation growth. However, he said the village's assessed value would likely see "positive growth" this year, possibly up to a 2.5 to 3 percent increase.
The board could pass a resolution to go to referendum at either the special meeting Aug. 19 or regularly scheduled Aug. 25 board meeting. Milsna said that once the board decides to go to referendum, members can still adjust "line items" before the vote, but the bottom line dollar amount cannot increase, though it could be reduced.
"Some of the details can change a little bit," she said.
As of press time, district officials said while the Aug. 19 special referendum meeting could be held as early as 6 p.m., no official time had been set.

An Introspection...My Insight Into Our Upcoming Season

Nice post Chezz. When we have threads evaluating Gainey's work, there is often the devil's advocate point of view that contends that player x was a Savard pick, who cares because Timmins makes the picks, and all these things are true.
I've always maintained that a team that is trying to compete in this market has to have a strong presence running the show, and that's exactly what Gainey is. Look at the figures who have worn the CH and the group that makes people stop and listen when they talk is very small. Gainey's one of them. A team with Gainey at the helm means business, simple as that.
The first hf meet n greet I went to , a few years back, I was sitting there with a friend who went to jr. games with me in 1968, so we've been to parades and whined when things didn't go our way, all the ups and downs.
We were listening to the conversation around the table, most of the guys about 25 years younger than us and it dawned on us that our history wasn't theirs. We'd never really thought about it in thos eterms. If my team never wins again, whether it be Stanley Cup, Grey Cup, Super Bowl, I haven't been cheated.
It became apparent how sweet it will be as the Habs become a team that matters again, a team that has to be conisdered as a contender, esp. for guys about your age who only have history books as reference to most of the team's triumphs.
My buddy actually pointed this out to me, and I'm glad he did, it keeps me from being that, 'yeah, but you should've seen the 70's team' jerk. Also makes following this team more fun.
