Local briefs - November 15, 2011
Beach Bowl to kick off at 6:30 p.m.
The SCFA Beach Bowl, sponsored by Joe Kapp Real Estate, will kick off at the VC Sportsplex at 6:30 p.m. Saturday.
The game, which matches No. 7 Ventura College (6-4) and No. 7 College of the Desert (6-4), originally conflicted with a potential Ventura women's soccer playoff game.
The soccer game, which will be confirmed by the release of the playoff pairings today, would now kick off at 3 p.m. to form a unique postseason doubleheader.
"It should be a special day," said Ventura soccer coach Steve Hoffman.
The SCFA asks the host school to look for local sponsorship to offset the cost of the game. Ventura didn't need to look beyond the local real estate firm.
"Joe is really doing a tremendous service to Ventura College and College of the Desert," said Ventura athletic director Will Cowen. "We're trying host a first-class event and not to go in the negative for either institution."
Ventura moves kickoff time
Friday night's CIF-Southern Section Western Division playoff game between Ventura High and Dominguez has had its kickoff time moved up to 7 p.m.
The game will be played at Ventura's Larrabee Stadium and will be streamed live on VCSPreps.com as the Domino's Pizza Game of the Week.

Cultural models and Rethinking Secularismposted by Giles Gunn
Rethinking Secularism is the title of a striking new collection of essays, edited by Craig Calhoun, Mark Juergensmeyer, and Jonathan VanAntwerpen that is rich with shrewd, and often detailed and intricate, discussions of the way the political and the social, the public and the personal, are threaded with, and frequently created out of, the interpretive, the symbolic, and the imaginary. It is also a book with whose central claim I could not be in fuller agreement: the religious and the secular do not designate different ends of a historical timeline, much less a simple binary, so much as different inflections of a process beginning, at least in the West, with the slow disintegration of Latin Christendom in the Late Middle Ages, and that we have come to recognize as the longue durée of the modern.

Islamic feminismposted by Jake Alter
Is secular feminism feasible in the Middle East and throughout the Muslim-majority nations of the world? Isobel Coleman, a Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, argues that it cannot subsist on its own and that it must be allied with a form of Islamic feminism.

"Theologians seldom write memoirs"posted by Jake Alter
"Theologians seldom write memoirs." This, Stanley Hauerwas concedes in a follow up to his recent memoir: Hannah's Child: A Theologian's Memoir (2010). It is precisely this sentiment that makes the entire project intriguing. Stanley Hauerwas, named "America's best theologian" by Time magazine shortly before the September 11 attacks in 2001, "has made himself a very fine career as an iconoclastic ethicist, condemning assimilationist Christianity, academic "respectability," the military, ill treatment of the differently-abled, and any number of other contemporary issues where Christian mediocrity is laid bare." With this description of the author taken to heart, Jack Downey, a doctoral candidate in Theology at Fordham University, reviews this memoir and looks to identify why and how he wrote it.
Sayyid Qutb and the Origins of Radical Islamismposted by Jake Alter
John Calvert, Professor of History at Creighton University and a specialist in political Islam, in hisforthcoming biography of Sayyid Qutb, "rescues Qutb from misrepresentation, tracing the evolution of his thought within the context of his time." InSayyid Qutb and the Origins of Radical Islamism(2010), he does not look to absolve Qutb of his virulent rhetoric but pushes the reader to understand Qutb in his own setting and time and to delve deeper into the writing of the influential Islamist thinker. Qutb, who was executed in Egypt in 1966, has been studied extensively but Thomas Hegghammer from Harvard University states: "We are dealing with a rare book that is likely to become a classic in the field of political Islam."

Box 1.1 President's Water Quality Initiative
The President's Water Quality Initiative was launched in 1989 in response to the widespread concern that agricultural activities contribute to the contamination of the Nation's ground waters. The goal of the initiative is to relate agricultural activities to ground water quality and to develop and implement farm management strategies that protect ground water. The USDA was directed to achieve this goal in a manner that maintains productivity and profitability, and minimizes regulation. Research, education, technical assistance, cost-sharing, and data collection programs have been implemented to achieve these objectives. The Initiative will extend through 1995; it is led by the USDA and involves eight principal USDA agencies, state agricultural experiment stations and cooperative extension services, the U.S. EPA, the U.S. Geological Survey, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and state universities.
As part of the initiative, the USDA developed a ground water vulnerability index for use in setting priorities in program management and to provide insight on the impact of policy development. A description of the USDA Ground Water Vulnerability Index for Pesticides and its applications is presented in the national level case study in Chapter 5.
situations are relatively obvious. For example, ground water contamination is likely to occur in areas having shallow water tables and sandy soils with high recharge rates. Such relatively obvious situations, however, are found on land that comprises only a small fraction of the area of the United States. Efforts to protect against future contamination must focus on the much larger areas where relative vulnerability to contamination is more difficult to distinguish. Given this understanding, resource managers have sought to identify areas where contamination is more likely to occur than in other areas. Thus the concept of ground water vulnerability to contamination was developed.
As illustrated in Box 1.3 the concept of ground water vulnerability to contamination has different meanings for different people. In its broadest context, ground water vulnerability refers to whether or not an underlying aquifer will become contaminated as a result of activities at the land surface. For the purposes of this report, ground water vulnerability to contamination is defined as:

Movie Star/Actor
Tony Curtis, 1925-2010.
Oct 11, 2010, Vol. 16, No. 04 • By JOHN PODHORETZ
Tony Curtis, who died last week at the age of 85, had one of the strangest careers in Hollywood history. He was, for years, an extremely pretty boy with not much discernible talent. And then, all of a sudden and for only two years, Curtis became a genuinely great film actor. And then, just as fast as it had blossomed, Curtis's extraordinary talent seemed to desiccate.
Photo Credit: Everett Collection
Curtis spent much of the 1950s as a laughingstock of a kind, an exemplar of Hollywood's propensity for ludicrous casting. Whether he was in a swashbuckler set in medieval England or a desert-sands flick, Curtis could not mask the thick New York Jewish accent he never lost, and his anachronistic line readings instantly became a source of campy jest. (He never actually spoke the words "Yonda lies da castle of my fodda," but he came close.) If he can be said to resemble any current Hollywood star, it would be Taylor Lautner, who plays the werewolf boy in the Twilight movies. Lautner now commands about $10 million per picture and has been on the covers of hundreds of magazines; he has a fascinating face and an absurdly ripped body and cannot credibly speak a sentence.
The first glimmer that Curtis might have something more to offer came in 1953, four years after he had begun in Hollywood, when he starred as Harry Houdini. It must have seemed an amusing idea to have Bernie Schwartz from the Bronx play Ehrich Weisz from Milwaukee—two Jewish kids who transformed themselves into stars through sheer force of will. The movie isn't very good, but you can see something happening in Curtis's body, how he unstiffens himself for the first time.
The physicality he displayed in Houdini served him in good stead three years later when he costarred with Burt Lancaster in Trapeze, a movie notable now only for the fact that the two men were introduced to each other on it. Lancaster's production company was planning to make Sweet Smell of Success, a movie about an evil gossip columnist and an amoral press agent, and Curtis somehow convinced Lancaster to give him the latter part.
Every Hollywood lightweight who proves himself a box-office draw gets a chance or two or three to stretch in a part no one would think him capable of. These experiments are all too often risible—think of Patrick Swayze, fresh off Ghost, playing a tormented doctor in Calcutta in City of Joy, or Zac Efron from High School Musical trying to embody a young actor tussling with greatness in Me and Orson Welles. Very infrequently, magic happens. Nick Nolte had success in the mid-1970s as a scuba-diving treasure hunter in The Deep when he took on the part of a grizzled Vietnam vet drug dealer in Who'll Stop the Rain and was so dazzling he instantly became known as one of Hollywood's best actors.
Curtis's turn in Sweet Smell of Success is the Platonic ideal of this gimmick—the greatest turnaround moment for an actor in movie history. His performance as Sidney Falco is not only amazing because Curtis is the one delivering it; it's a performance any actor at any time would have been proud to claim. Curtis not only had to embody a tricky, dishonest, motor-mouthed louse, but a small-souled and cowardly weasel besides. There is nothing remotely grand or elevated about Falco's villainy; he is the cinema's foremost EveryHeel.
Two years later, after having continued in a dark vein playing a racist Southerner chained to Sidney Poitier in the vivid prison-escape drama The Defiant Ones, Curtis suddenly emerged again, this time as a brilliant farceur in Billy Wilder's Some Like It Hot. Curtis is spectacular in it, blowing his costars Marilyn Monroe and Jack Lemmon off the screen. Later that year, having parodied Cary Grant to perfection in Some Like It Hot, Curtis costarred with Grant in the hit submarine comedy Operation Petticoat, playing an egotistical scrounger in a part that combined Sidney Falco's do-anything ethos with his Some Like It Hot lightness of spirit.
So, Tony Curtis, 1957 to 1959: three major hits (Some Like It Hot, The Defiant Ones, Operation Petticoat), one Oscar nomination for Best Actor (The Defiant Ones), and the financially unsuccessful but critically celebrated Sweet Smell of Success.
And then, a series of lame and overproduced sex farces and slapstick epics just drained the integrity from his work. All that was left was frantic, exhausting, pointless energy. By the 1980s he was playing supporting roles in horror movies. There would be no late-in-life renaissance for him, though over time the singular brilliance of his work in Sweet Smell of Success would come to be universally acknowledged.

That same pitcher that makes those starts versus that batter who plays those games is responsible for more plate appearances. The pitcher faces about 720-750 PA's where the player faces about 620-650 PA's. That alone is why the pitcher is more valuable.
We got an ERA/Strikeout/Wins leader for a Triple Crown leader. That alone is simply amazing. It's got to be the 1st Time in the history of baseball trades.

you just simply cannot compare this trade untill 3-5 years down the road. I mean you can but these are all opinion untill we can get some long term stats to compare.
I too did not like the trade and I am still on the fence.....I just think that it is sooooo HARD to find GOOD starting pitching nowadays that you have to make that trade 9 times out of 10.....I am just still not 100% sold on that theory

Provides a superior, enhanced feel while increasing racquet power and reducing weight with a full Basalt expanded handle and a new shock-absorbing engineered urethane polymer. The full Basalt handle filters out unwanted vibrations and transmits a cleaner feel, giving the player a heightened sense of the ball. The specially engineered urethane absorbs some of the shock for more of an arm-friendly feel.
Using fewer cross strings than main strings, this technology allows the main strings to deflect more for maximum snapback. The result is massive spin punctuated by balls that dive very sharply. This is the first racquet system that actually increases ball RPM without players needing to radically change their swing speed.

34 year old man | Narberth, PA, USA | Seeking women 24-34 within 20 miles
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
I like to think of myself as a bit of a nonconformist. The values I strive for most, and therefore value most in others are integrity, authenticity, honesty and a deep passion for living. I try to live a balanced life physically, mentally and spirituality. I keep active by running, yoga, weight lifting and rock climbing (In September I start training for my first triathlon). I embrace my spiritual side through meditation, yoga, and reading some of the great spiritual-existential literature from authors such as Nietzsche, Tillich, Kafka, Krishnamurti, etc. I stay mentally sane through my friendships and my connection to the community. My single biggest passion is travel; showing up in foreign countries without any set itinerary, not knowing what I am going to do, who I am going to meet, where I am going to sleep, true adventure! I believe life, like love, is an art. I don't quite yet have it figured out yet, but I am having fun along the way. I am looking for someone who is willing to "step outside the box," not caught up in the herd mentality that plagues our society, with a passion for living, growing and being.
Coffee and conversation , Movies/Videos , Exploring new areas , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering
Other types of exercise, Running, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Fish
I like Cats, Dogs, Exotic Pets
I have a puffer fish named Slimy because of the way he flutters around reminds me of Slimer from Ghostbusters!
Wherever in the world I happen to be!
Yoga ( I teach two classes a week for fun ), Rock Climbing, Running, Movies Massage/Bodywork (I'm a licensed massage therapist and do some in my spare time), I also enjoy meditation and studying for the sake of learning.

WALLA WALLA — Rain and cold failed to dampen the will of a crowd of about 80 people Monday who turned out for a Walla Walla Tea Party Patriots Tax Day Rally at the Walla Walla County Courthouse on Main Street.
Addressing the group was keynote speaker Shahram Hadian, a pastor who ran for governor in 2012. Hadian, who grew up as a Muslim, became a Christian after his family immigrated from Iran when he was 7, spoke on the threat radical Islam poses to the United States. He also said the the United States needs to return to its founding principles and spoke of what people can do to engage government and effect change.
This was the fourth annual Tax Day Rally held by the Walla Walla Tea Party Patriots.

I find these theocrats-in-training to be the most frightening, dangerous force in the United States today. The GOTP is actually run and funded by unlimited corporate dollars, a fact that the rank-and-file seem not to understand. They obviously have never studied US history or government, either, because one of their platforms---along with wanting to end government regulation that keeps their corporate masters from poisoning the planet at will, the true agenda of the paymasters---is "the role of the church in government." The role of the church in government is zero, zip, nada, never, never, never. Our founders came from a continent that had been at war over religion for centuries, and they were determined that this new experiment in government would not suffer the same fate. Periodically, however, some group decides that the rule of law is not sufficient to make the people behave, and wants to change our secular government to a theocracy run by what is no less than a christian Taliban. Right now we are at a more dangerous point than ever before, as our media, owned by the corporations that want to end government "interference"----meaning regulation and taxes---that reigns them in, be it only slightly. Since corporations can't (yet) vote, they take the lowest-information voters, those who get their "facts" from the likes of Faux "news" and their religious masters, and persuade them to vote against their own financial interests by convincing them that this country needs to turn "back" to Jesus. Despite the fact that "back to Jesus" is an outright lie perpetuated by those who want dumbed-down religious folk afraid to question authority rather than educated citizens who know their history and shudder at the thought of this country resembling Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan under the Taliban. And that is what theocracies ALWAYS resemble.

loplover - did you get your rant while you were attending the Occupy Movement? If you look at the last 4 years you will see that this current administration has created more devastation to the great US of A than any terrorists. Progressive Liberals really are clueless and to prove my point read your post.
pdywgn 2 years, 2 months ago
Loplover-The Tea Party has nothing to do with religion. Instead of ranting for the MSM, gain a little knowledge. Adherence to the Constitution pretty much slaps down your religious rant.

realllllly unfortunate news at the vet today
Posted 09 October 2011 - 04:28 AM
many of you know about Zevon and his heart disease and that i've been treating him for years now. well he and Cassady are related. and heart disease is genetic. see where this is going yet? yeah, Cassady's heart has a murmur. she (he, whatever) is 8 now - the average age for this to show up. i've been waiting for it, knew it was likely, but now that it's here i'm just sick about it.
what if i have to do meds 3x a day again!?? that was one of the hardest things i've ever had to carry off and i did it for 2 years with Zevon until he could go down to twice a day. i don't wanna!!!! it's probably the same kind of heart disease. we have an appt with the cardiologist the next time he's up here but i should probably get her in sooner at some other office. he's in saratoga the week after next.... the sooner the better, right?
she also needs some dental work but we can't schedule that until we know what's up with her heart. she has a week's worth of antibiotics to take for now, and has been very good at taking them today.
so that's another reason why i should get her in sooner isn't it. fuuuuuuuuck!!!!!!!!! this is going to be a bite, financially, too. fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!!!!!!!!

If mine needed pills 3x per day I don't see how it would happen during some portions of the year.
You are a great kitty mom.
Posted 10 October 2011 - 10:59 PM
my HOPE, is that since Cassady's symptoms aren't nearly as bad as Zevon's were, that it won't be necessary.
i rescheduled Cassady for saratoga on the 18th, and made TWO back to back appts for January, guessing that she'll need a 3 month follow up.
i am reallly not sure if i'd prefer to bring them both in at one time, in which case each of them is going to have to wait about an hour in the carrier while the other is being examined, or if i'd prefer two separate appts maybe 3 hours or more apart in case he runs late.... i don't want to schedule them on different days all the time because it's a half day's vacation each time.

Posted 18 October 2011 - 10:39 PM
$335 for the evaluation but it does go down from here. checkup first week of december to see how the meds are doing. to start there will be just 1/4 of one pill 3x a day and a baby aspirin every 3 days which i'll split into 1/2 in the a.m and 1/2 p.m. Zevon gets 1/4 diltiazem 2x a day, 1/4 atenolol 1x a day, an enalipril 2x a day AND a baby aspirin every 3 days, for comparison. though he built up to that over the years as the disease changed.
i went to hannaford and bought them a roasted chicken for treats.
Diamond has NO interest in chicken!
if i'm very diligent and the disease reacts well we might be able to go to a 3 month checkup the next time so i went ahead and made them appts in march, one at 1pm and the other at 4pm. Zevon will be slightly overdue by then but he understands and isn't too worried about it.
sad. scared. worried. but - all i can do is the best i can do and that is my plan.
she was very good and just kept hiding her face but apparently it would have been better if her neck wasn't bent - coulda told me that during, but he mentioned it afterwards when she only got a 'good' behavior rating instead of 'excellent' and i asked him why. poor Zevon has never received an excellent rating either but that's because he occasionally tries to make a break for it.
i liked that the office had separate waiting rooms for dogs vs cats and i kind of liked that they take the kitty and shave them down for me, where that's always been just a little bit of a struggle with Zevon, but not enough to make the longer drive every time i don't think. it was a very quiet room which i don't get at my vet's either but he's supposed to be getting a new room there that's a bit more out of the way so that should help for both of them.
thanks for all the support and for the faith in me - it really helps a lot.

the first night away is nov 15th so i have a few weeks to gear up. might have to suck it up and use the pill pockets to start. Dr Verra didn't love her at 11lbs, 9 or 10 would be ideal but he wasn't too worried, either. she's not really fat, per se but she doesn't quite have that very waspish figure that cats really should have, though rarely do.
i JUST got back to being able to leave food out all the time, thanks to Diamond actually, so hopefully i can keep that going. once she's doing better i can play with her more,with less worry, and she'll really burn it off quickly, then. fortunately they are all very playful!!

Posted 19 October 2011 - 10:20 AM
did manage to pick her up and bring her downstairs and she took the pills like a champ. then got chicken! but she takes the tiniest bit of chicken and breaks it up, she just does not like big pieces of anything, never has.
so i think the pill pockets are going to be too big though but maybe i can squash the pill into even half of one. my pet sitter is really hoping for pockets though. and i cleeaaaarrrly remember chasing Zevon around and around at the beginning of his treatment, too. it's why i ended up having to shut both bedroom doors for years when i went away and why i still shut my bedroom door when i go away.
we can do this, we can do this....
*sigh* i can't believe i'm going to have to come home every single lunch hour. no more walking.
we can do this. we can do this.....

You are a wonderful and dedicated mama. I am sure you and Cassady will adapt to a pill routine quickly
Posted 19 October 2011 - 05:18 PM
My 16 y/o has a level 4 murmur. It was a level 2 when she was a baby. Luckily, she's never had any issues.
My orange boy, that looks a lot like your crew, is a NIGHTMARE to give pills to. Of course he's the one that always gets sick or injured! I have to tightly wrap him in a towel and massage his neck for a good minute or more to get him to swallow. He'll hold it in his cheek, waiting to spit it out, as long as it takes They are such little shits
Good luck.

last night i did have the pill with me so when she went into the cubby i just shut the door and well, pretty much dumped her out of it. this morning when i went to do the same thing, she must have been hanging on for dear life because she didn't fall out! so i rolled it a bit in my arms to loosen her grip and then shook it a little again. one back leg falls out and starts poking around in the air trying to find firm ground. then the 2nd back leg falls out so she's got two legs hanging down from this tower thing but from the waist up is still in the cubby! it was very funny and very cartoon-like!

text: The Superbowl is not held for the fans of the teams that are participating. It is held as a thank you to the companies that spend 3 million for 30 seconds of advertising. Yes, fans can get tickets through the secondary market if they want to pay through the nose, and a select few fans will win the ticket lottery, but let's not act like $850 is a bargain to watch a sporting event. I would say over half of the people that attend the Superbowl don't even have a real rooting interest. This is why the NFL is reluctant to hold the event in open air cold weather stadiums. This is why you have the silly half-time show.

There's an unfortunate, unavoidable truth about this weekend's Zone 2 East Tournament.
There's an unfortunate, unavoidable truth about this weekend's Zone 2 East Tournament.
The tournament, which begins with two first-round games today at Sedalia, is loaded with quality teams. Four squads in the five-team field sport winning Zone and overall records. While that will likely make for an exciting weekend of baseball, it also means at least one winning team is ending its season by the end of the weekend.
The Blue Springs Rod's Sports A's (37-7, 21-5) have already clinched a spot in next week's overall Zone Tournament after winning the Zone 2 East regular-season crown. That leaves two available spots for Blue Springs Post 499/Fike, Oak Grove Post 379, Sedalia Post 642 and Hi Boy Drive In/Post 340 to fight for.
Of those squads, Fike (27-12, 15-8), Oak Grove (14-7, 14-7) and Sedalia (27-20, 14-12) all posted winning regular-season marks. The tournament starts at 5 p.m. today as Hi Boy and Sedalia meet. Fike and Oak Grove play at 8 and the A's will take on the Hi Boy-Sedalia winner at 10 a.m. Saturday. The championship series will start at 4 p.m. Sunday with a second game slated for 7 p.m. Monday if necessary.
Several of those teams also enter the tournament with some momentum. Fike is coming off a quarterfinals appearance in the American Legion Wood Bat Invitational, and although that ended with a 2-1 defeat to the O'Fallon (Mo.) West Jaguars, the performance drew praise from manager Jim Moran.
"We've had an up-and-down season, but we did finish strong in the Wood Bat and hopefully that carries over to the (Zone 2 East) Tournament," Moran said. "I thought we played defense better than we had the last week or two. The team seemed to pick each other up as we went along."
The A's came away from the Wood Bat Tournament disappointed, but picked up some late steam and carried that over into their doubleheader sweep over Oak Grove in the regular-season final Monday for their fifth straight triumph.
"We're playing better," A's manager Mike Rooney said. "But I still don't think we're back to the potential that I think the team has."
As the fifth seed, Hi Boy enters as the underdog in the field, but that's not dimming manager Byron White's optimism.
"You look at the records, even the top teams lost quite a few games," White said. "There's no undefeated teams or one- or two-loss teams. You don't have to win the whole thing. ... I've got every bit of optimism that we're going to be playing next week."
The Zone 2 West Tournament also begins tonight, although it will feature only four teams since the Independence VFW Post 1000 Bears were unable to field the required 12-player roster. The division-champion Lee's Summit Hawthorn Bank Outlaws (35-8, 22-4) meet St. Joseph Post 11 (12-25, 9-17) at 7 p.m. at the Independence Athletic Complex while the Lee's Summit Post 189 Pirates (16-18, 10-10) take on Independence Post 21 (13-27, 10-16) at the same time.
Page 2 of 2 - There's seemingly little pressure on the Outlaws, with a spot in next week's tournament already locked up, but manager Mike Gailey said that's actually not the case considering this weekend's winner receives a bye in next week's bracket.
"Any time you can play one less game, you get to that level and it's a big plus for your pitching and everything else," Gailey said. "Our goal is to win it."

Cartridges - All
When to use Cartridges
Cartridges are typically needed for those who use smaller eCigs such as the Joye 510, NJOY NPRO, DSE901/RN4081 or DSE801/Penstyle. Usually the cartridge snaps directly onto an atomizer (the component that vaporizes the nicotine liquid), and the atomizer will screw directly onto the battery.
Our cartridges come in individual sealed wrappers and are available in 3 options:
- Blank or "refillable" Cartridges - no nicotine liquid, you must purchase your nicotine liquid separately and add to the cartridge
- Prefilled Cartridges - the nicotine liquid comes prefilled for you available in various strengths and flavors
- Tank Cartridges - for use with "tank atomizers" and available for 510 and eGO eCigs only
510 and 901 Cartridges
Note that 510 and DSE 901 cartridges are fully compatible with each other. The main difference is that 510 cartridges have round mouthpieces (the part that goes into your mouth) while DSE901 cartridges have flat or "whistle" tips.
Something Missing?
We want to be your one-stop source for all your vaping needs. Use this form to send us your requests, and we'll do our best to source and stock what you need.

Public Campaign is now Every Voice Center. Come back soon for our new website or check out our sister organization, Every Voice.
Letter from Nick Nyhart, President
Last summer, our sister organization, Public Campaign Action Fund changed its name to Every Voice, a name that elegantly conveyed its mission and ours —that every voice should matter in politics. The "rebrand" came with a new logo, a new website, and a rededication to harnessing the public anger about our broken system and turning it into positive action for change.
All the while, the staff at Public Campaign kept doing what we have done for nearly 20 years—cutting-edge policy analysis, research into the influence of money in the policy-making process, public education, and coalition building.
Now, nearly a year after Every Voice came into being, we believe it no longer makes sense for the two organizations to work under different brands. That's why, going forward, Public Campaign will officially become Every Voice Center to better reflect the close relationship between the two organizations. Our mission will remain what it has always been—to fight for a government in which the voices of everyday people matter the most, more than the deep pocket lobbying interests or the billionaires able to write ten-figure checks.
Nick Nyhart, President and CEO

Can my wrinkled neck be lasered or peeled too?
Wrinkled necks have to be treated much more delicately, much more carefully, because there is a little greater risk of problems, because the neck skin is thinner.
It doesn't heal as well, it doesn't regenerate as well. The facial skin is fabulous, pretty much got that down, we're kind of still at the frontiers at
what to do with the neck and the upper chest from sun damage and aging. But, a combination of bleach creams, low intensity laser like treatments, like intense pulse light,
which is popular and it's good because it's safe, but you have to have a series.
You can't expect it to be one blast and have the job done as when we do the chemical on the face, when it's a one time treatment.
But typically over a period of a year, with 5 or 6 treatments, and they are quick, they are office visits, in and out, no down time, virtually no discomfort,
add a little bleach cream into the mix, and that skin will look better. Not as perfect as the best result from a chemical skin peel on the face, but we're working on the neck.
See how household products can help
you get healthy,
glowing skin.

What do I know about fashionable Muslim headscarves for women? Not as much as Los Angeles Times reporter Raja Abdulrahim. He wrote in a recent Column One:
On one of the holiest nights of Ramadan, Marwa Atik chose a crowded Southern California mosque to debut her latest creation.
It was just after midnight when the 20-year-old walked into the Islamic Center of Irvine, dressed in a long, flowing burgundy robe, her head wrapped in a charcoal-colored chiffon hijab, trimmed with decorative gold zippers.
After the group prayers, sermon and Koran recitation, a woman approached Atik, gesturing at the scarf. "OK, I want one," she said excitedly. "How can I get it?"
Atik has taken the Muslim head scarf, often known as hijab, and turned it into a canvas for her fashion sensibilities, with ideas inspired by designs from Forever 21 and H&M as well as haute couture runways and the pages of Vogue and Elle. Showing her latest design at a mosque was her way of gauging sentiment on scarves that go beyond the limited fashion realm they have thus far inhabited, such as floral and geometric prints or lace and beaded embellishments.
This has, not surprisingly, caused a stir among more traditional American Muslims, and re-invigorated an old debate about what modesty entails. I wrote more about that part of this story at GetReligion.

Illuminated entry issue
I have a check mark @30 seconds within the program, but when I back out to the main menu, there is no checkmark, so consequently, no illuminated entry. It just quit working. Anyone have the solution short of a stealership visit?
does it do it when running or without running and key on? try the other way if u havent already
When approaching the truck and pressing unlock on the FOB, the LED's in the bottom of the mirrors no longer activate even though the option has been chosen. I chose 30 seconds illumination, there is a check mark beside 30 seconds, but when I go back to the main menu, no checkmark indicating illuminated entry chosen.
Got it figure out
Turns out that at some point, I had turned the dimmer all the way down. The manual clearly says. Illuminated Entry will not work with the dimmer turned down. DOH! (smacking myself up side the head)

A creative Brit living in Colorado, I've been knitting since 7 years old. I crochet, draw, paint, craft, remodel houses and anything else that gets my fickle attention! Knitting, is very therapeutic to me, it slows me down and centers me. I started creating my own patterns in 2011, just, well because and was amazed they sold on etsy. It was just a fun little hobby that earned me some holiday andf yarn money that year. But, I got hooked (no pun intended!) and really love the creative process, combining stitches for textures along with combined with the math calulation. Sometimes designs will just come to me when I see a certain style someone is wearing and think about what would look nice in a neckline. Sometimes I find an interesting stitch technique and fabric and imagine a design in it. Sometimes it takes many weeks and trial and errors to work something out. I can't tell you how many times I start, get 1/2 way and then pull it out and start again! I think my mix of creative and methodical is due to being ambidextrous - I'm left handed but knit right handed, along with many things I do in life.
I knit English style, I learned to speed knit from my great aunt by tucking my right needle under my right arm and let my left / dominant hand do the work. It allows me to work fast while getting great, even tension throughout the project.
I've owned my own knitting shop in the past, but now knit for fun and design easy, practical, wearable knitwear that a beginner or experienced beginner can work. I currently sell my patterns on Etsy.com, Ravelry.com and here. One day, I hope to run a blog and add video instruction to my patterns; but like many, time prohibits. Until then, they are written instructions and charts.
I'm always willing to help my customers with any questions and welcome feedback to improve or add patterns that customers suggest.
Happy knitting!
No more out of shape ultra stretchy straps! Essential fashionable mesh beach bag, with sturdy, contouring shoulder straps that will stretch less and keep their shape well and make a great cross body / shoulder bag that fits everything in. This will be better than your average mesh bag as a result.
Designing notes:
When following or trying beach bag patterns previously, I've been perplexed that the straps wear very stretchy and get out of shape very easily. This also puts stress on the join areas around the strap and pulls the whole bag long and out of shape. To counter that, I've shaped the straps to have a wide base to give the bag better strength and construction. I also like the aesthetic appeal a little better. This has the added benefit that it to contours to your body without gaping as much, meaning your contents are more secure.
Contouring straps, mean less stretch and stress on strap/bag join areas for better quality and durability
X body shaping, means more secure for valuables as bag opening does not drape open
100% cotton materials: keeps shape.
Machine washable, dry flat over night or machine dryer on low heat.
Add a clear vinyl lining to keep wet garments (extra cost)
