Higgins: Wasn't it the economy dummy?Written by Tim Higgins | | email@example.com
The Election of 2012 has been over for three months, but evidently its message has already been largely forgotten, especially by those who were running for office. Going into that election, it seemed clear that most running for office were clear as to the nation's issues: unemployment rates were too high, deficits were growing far too quickly, and the national economy was growing far too slowly. Those newly elected once again promised to make these issues their 'number one priority'.
Well the election is over, and what's the government's priority now? Instead of the economy, the debate is about creating comprehensive immigration law. When it's not centered on our undocumented residents, it's about adding to the documentation (and restriction) involved with purchasing a gun or the number of bullets it can contain. Soon-to-be-departing head of the Department of Defense Leon Panetta put his distraction in the mix by announcing that women would now be using many of those weapons in active combat situations. When the subject of who gets to buy or use a gun is temporarily set aside, who gets to marry takes center stage. While all of these are discussions worth having, none of them seem to have anything to do with the originally stated number one priority. So what have those in Washington DC done about it?
Well, they once more punted the President's court of last resort from the Budget Control Act of 2011 (Sequestration), from January of 2013 to March. In fact, the President just announced that he'd like to see it punted down the road a few more months to get a deal that they haven't been able to reach in two years. Speaking of the Commander in Chief, the subject of the budget is evidently so important to him that he failed for the fourth time in five years to submit his own budget to Congress before the mandated deadline for doing so. Such a failure might be seen as serious, except that the President's past budgets seem to be considered far less so. His 2012 effort was such a resounding success in fact, that it received a bi-partisan rejection of 99-0. As pitiable as that performance might seem to the addressing a stated number one issue, the Democratically-controlled Senate has performed even worse, having failed to adopt a budget resolution since April 29th of 2009.
But hey, it's easy to understand how the party in power could get distracted over the last four years. After all, in spite of their own stated belief that we're dealing with the worst economy since the Great Depression; it was more important to pass Health Care reform that's becoming a greater drain on it, auto bailouts that ignored conventional bankruptcy law to protect unions, and the Dodd-Frank bank regulations that would do nothing in the future to prevent the cause of the economic downturn. Of course after years of wrangling, the government did finally agree to ending part of the Bush Tax Rates, but the revenue generated by their effort is likely to equal between five and ten percent of the annual deficits of each of the last four years (but not this year, because Congress just approve spending its equivalent in Hurricane Sandy relief).
Never mind all of that however. In spite of the fact that Democrats control both the White House and the Senate, the fact that this supposed top issue in the nation has not been addressed on more than a temporary basis appears to be the fault of a Republican party that hasn't been in power since 2007. This isn't to say that Republicans have covered themselves in glory over the same period, they can hardly be held responsible the failure to show even less backbone than they have since losing the White House. Neither can their timid resistance be held as an excuse for the failure in leadership in both the Senate and the White House.
Maybe I've just got this all wrong however. Maybe there's a secret Democratic strategy to solve the problems of unemployment, the deficit, and the economy by doing no more than they have in the past … paying them no more than lip service. It appeared to work for them in 2012, so perhaps it will prove equally useful for 2014. Then again, maybe now that the election of 2012 is now over, they've simply forgotten the question. So paraphrasing the years of Democratic hero and former president Bill Clinton: "Wasn't it the Economy Dummy?"

I had been to several bridal shops in Central London before I came across Love Me Do Brides. I went there because they stocked a designer I liked, and which no one else did in Central London, so that was a big plus for me. However, that turned out not to be the only big plus of the shop. Since first speaking with them, I got the impression that they were super friendly. They said they would have everything in the shop that I had seen on the designer's website, which is not true of other… Read Full Review

I was very lucky to have an appointment available at such late notice. During my visit I felt I was given undivided attention and the service was professional. I tried on several dresses and managed to narrow down to two with the help of the sales assistant, who informed me of a SALE day the following day and would put my name down on the guest list. The sales assistant was kind enough to provide me with the names and prices of the two dresses as I would be able to find the the following… Read Full Review

I can not recommend this bridal shop enough & in particular the lady I dealt with. She was so welcoming & had such a kind & gentle manner that really puts you at ease. There was such a great choice of dresses & she was so patient with me while I worked my way through them to find the style which worked best for me.

I just got married a month ago. The dress looked amazing and everyone asked where the dress was from (they thought it must be more expensive than it actually was!). I was very pleased. The service was very friendly and all the staff helped me chose the right dress. The only downside was how long it took to arrive and the fact that you can't buy made to measure. You have to buy a standard size and then get the dress altered (at extra cost). I'm sure this is the same procedure in all shops but… Read Full Review

Congratulations on your marriage! such a lovely review thank you, i will pass it on to the girls. Yes we share your frustration on the delivery! Something the designers are looking at all the time to improve without cutting corners. There are made to measures out there, but quite rare these days, as you will still need to have it tailored when it comes in as your body shape changes all the time, plus the cost is actually more to have it made to measure then it is to order standard and tailor when its in believe it or not! If you have any spare photos of you in your wedding dress, dont forget to drop them in for our wall of love! xxx

Just want to say what a lovely experience I had in your walton store, I tried on only five dresses but I knew straight away what dress was for me, you knew what dresses suited my shape and encouraged me to try allsorts on! Even after paying for my dress you were there all the way up to the wedding and also letting me pop in and try the sample on as much as I wanted for reassurance. The only thing I would say was that when I told you I was loosing weight I still had to commit to buying a larger… Read Full Review

Firstly congratulations on your wedding! and thank you so much for a lovely review it means a lot. And 60lbs!!!!!!!!!! wowzers! that is amazing you must be so proud!
With regards to the sizing of the gowns, as iam not sure who you are i can only be general. we can only work on the measurements we have, and of course girls do like to loose some weight before the wedding, however to what they will loose is a guessing game really, there is the option of ordering down a size but again this is a big risk as you dont know if you will loose the weight. Now what i will say is that all gowns do need to be tailored to fit, and the more fabric she can work with down the seams the seamstress can pin a better fit, then if she only had a slither - i hope this makes sense! Our alterations are done at cost so there would have been no shop add on costs for you.
With regard to the extra amount of money to pay - this is the designers request, as they offer sizes 4 to 34 at some point there does need to be a break in cost because the fabric used for a size 4 to a size 22 is going to be alot more. We dont make any money on this extra charge.
And FINALLY! you can always renew your wedding vows! :)
Wishing you a very magical marriage, and if you have a spare photo, dont forget to pop it into the store for our wall of love! xxx

My experience with Love me Do Brides has been stressful and unsatisfactory and still I haven't ended up with the shoes I wanted for my wedding day! I found the shoes I wanted on their website slightly cheaper than elsewhere and enquired about coming to pick them up in store. I was told to order them online as it was free delivery and I could order more than one pair and return the shoes I didn't want in person to save on the postage. There is a reason the shoes are slightly cheaper because… Read Full Review

We do operate a policy in store of exchange only, so if you did want to order several pairs its advisable to order online.
The free gift of heel stoppers are sent out once the customer has confirmed they are keeping the item they have purchased. The offer of free postage again is only applicable if you keep the item. All stated on the terms and conditions which the customer has to agree to before purchase - nothing hidden and certainly not ripped off.
When I did return the unwanted pair I was given no form of receipt in store. I had to keep chasing the refund as they didn't mention that it takes up to 30 days for a refund to be processed. In actual fact it turned out to be over 5 weeks before I received the payment and they had deducted £6.95 for the postage that they had told me I would be able to avoid.
If the customer requested a receipt this would have been done. Again mentioned on our terms and conditions are the fact of 30 days, we state this because the payment is done on-line using protx which is a secure gateway for payments, and stops fraud, we dont hold or have customers card details. Without knowing who this customer is i can not comment on why it was longer, however i will say that refunds are done by us the same day as receipt.
Regarding the 2nd pair again without knowing who i can not explain.
As to the mark up, yes of course there is a mark up, this is a business. Where we can to speed up delivery we will always pay more to have them shipped direct out of the designers warehouse.
As to the heel stoppers, if you have not received them please email us and we will be happy to send.
It is never our intention to upset any bride, we do acknowledge that organizing a wedding is very stressful and we do apologies if we got it wrong regarding the delay in delivery.
Warmest regards sharon

I went along to the Walton store & was greeted with such enthusiasm & smiling faces! My dress was even on the mannequin in the window. I knew I had found the right place to buy my dress.

We do state that refunds do take upto 30 days on our website, this is on the instruction of the card and payment platform that was used, as when you buy on-line you go through safety checks via your card company and your payment platform to keep safe your card details.
The items were purchased are on a promotion of free postage if you keep the items as the items were return we reserve the right to claw back the postage - you must have to remember that we are not the manufacturers of these items and do not pay pennies for them to be made, our profit is very low on shoes, so if we did not charge for postage then we would be making a loss. if you bought the items with you paying the postage you would not expect to be refunded for them, its the same difference, the shoes weights are heavy and most cost more the £6.95 to post.
As for the delay in someone coming back to the customer she bought on-line not in store, however i can confirm that the customer was emailed on the day she questioned it after the store emailed the internet department.
This is stated on the website prior to buying and also on the terms and conditions which are agreed to prior to buying, so the customer was aware before purchasing.

Right from the start the sales assistant made us all feel welcome and her advice and expertise immediately put my daughter at ease.

You do know because my partner left me 6 days before my wedding and you wouldn't refund me for my veil even though I had the receipt and it hadn't even been taken out of the packaging. My mum rang you up in tears and you were so stern with her.
This plus the fact your seamstress tried to charge me £300 for basic alterations and you did not believe me when I said her flat stank of cats urine, unfortunately means if I ever meet the right person to marry again, I will not be using lovemedo.
You could easily have resold the veil full price and saved you ordering it in if someone else liked the design and my mum even asked if we could return it for half price.
No compassion.

In addition to this comment I wouldn't not put up about my experience with an appointment we had on Saturday in the Walton store.
We went in for a bridesmaid dress appointment. The store has recently been refurbished and this meant we had a whole section of the shop to ourselves.
I had 4 bridesmaids plus my sister with me so the lovely assistant had to deal with 6 rather loud girls! She was absolutely perfect. So helpful and polite.
Once again thank you for a fantastic experience. x

As with all reviews, its always a personal opinion, but it is always important to make sure that for the person reading it, that all the information is correct and no bits are left out. i hope in this reply that you can see that we have done everything correct in this case. If anyone has any questions we would be more then happy to answer them for you. Thank you for taking the time to read our response.
All our gowns are priced at Alfred Angelo's RRP, we even price match all our products to ensure you get the best price possible. At no point did this customer mention the price.
We did not try to get them to use our recommended alteration service, most bridal companies tie you into a contract to use their alterations service, we do not! When our customers buy gowns from us we give them a information sheet which has a step by step guide to what happens from when they order to when they take the gowns for the final time. On the reverse of this is a list of Seamstress contact details who are spread through London and the home counties. All our alterations are done at cost price there is no add on for the store, even if the bride chooses to have them done in store rather then going to the seamstresses studios. It does not surprise us that her alteration lady was shocked, she made double the money in the tailoring of them! She is hardly going to say anything different!
Here are the sizes of the girls and here is the sizes of the gowns ordered, and also the notes we sent the bride when she complained, as you can see we have ordered the correct sizes. When the girls were measured, the bride and the bridesmaid were present when choosing the sizes, Not only that but we emailed over the measurements and the sizes options for the bride, who then choose the sizes! If the girls had gone into the sizes that they are now suggesting, then it would have put enormous strain on the zip and seams and would have 100% resulted in the zip or the seams coming open. All gowns will need tailoring to fit correctly, this is common place in bridal and the bride was aware of this.
This bride has also neglected to tell you that one of the girls actually lost quite a bit of weight after ordering!
The dress was pinned at the hip on our sample. The 14 did do up but it was with a little force and our sample would have been tried on, the last thing you would have wanted on your wedding day would be to have the zip to break because it was under pressure. the dress ordered for her is correct, we ordered the dress based on the biggest measurement which was her waist the was 32.5 and the dress on the 16 was 33, her hip was a 42 and the dress is a 43.5 so it would be bigger on the hips. her bust was a 39 and the dress a 40.
Measurements for her
39 bust
32.5 waist
42 hips
Dress for her
40 bust
33 Waist
43.5 hips
The dress she bought was this one [removed] as you can see its a tight fitting dress
[Name removed] dress was pinned at the bust and lower back, she was governed by her hip and waist measurement, her hip measurement was 42/42.5 (is remeasured as a 41 when she was in) the dress is 42 on the hip, her bust was a 37 the dress is a 38.5. her waist was a 31.5 (she remeasured when in at 29.5) the dress is a 31.5.
37 Bust
31.5 Waist
42/42.5 Hips
38.5 Bust
31.5 Waist
42 Hips
This is the dress, as you can see its a tight fitting dress [name removed].
[Name removed] was actually over on her hip into the 13 (hip on this size is a 40.5) as her hip was a 40, the dress ordered was a 40.5 her bust was a 35.5 the dress is 36 her waist was 29/29.5 and her dress was 29 so again she should have gone over to the 13.
35.5 Bust

We were not difficult in getting information to the bride or did we contradict ourselves. We emailed over the girls sizes and the gowns sizes so she could see for herself why the gowns were ordered in the sizes she wanted. We don't have any size 12's in the store in bridal or bridesmaids, we pride ourselves that our samples range from 14-24 in store so we can fit arrange of girls, The tag she refers to is a US size not a UK size which we have explained to her. We answered all emails promptly and often out of hours and factually
The girls did try the gowns on in the shop and although a couple of them did do up, the sample gowns would have stretched from trying on and they were very tight! which we explained at the time of ordering, and after when the bride emailed. The bride was also not present at the inspection day. This bride has also contradicted herself in this review by saying that she went with the sizes recommended by us, but then she says in the same paragraph that they took them down a size!
All our gowns are lightly steamed for us to check, its important not to over steam them as they will soften too much and will not hang nicely for the wedding, we then they are sealed back into the bags to protect them. As the gowns will have been handled a lot before the wedding through transporting, storing and alterations we offer a free steam service just before the wedding, if the girls are not local, its normally common practice for the seamstress to do it. All this is again explained in the notes on ordering, and in this case explained in the shop, the bride was particularly keen to know the procedures at the point of sale.
The bride did ask for her alteration costs to be paid, however in this case as you can see from the measurements to what we ordered, we have actually done nothing wrong, so why would we give her money? The cost of the alterations were double the price because she used someone who was very expensive, if she had chosen from our vast list or contacted other people for a quote, she would have been charged the correct amount of money for the right amount of tailoring that would have been needed for the girls.
Customer services is in deed key to a successful business, and as you will see from all the other reviews we have, our brides are very happy. Of course with any business you can never keep everyone happy, especially when someone wants money out of you and you say no, then they write reviews to attack a lovely company which has now been trading for 11 years. The bride is out of pocket because she choose to use an alternative service.

Please note that the alternative alteration service closer to us did not charge any more than the average amount you quoted for your preferred alteration services. You are remembering the total amount I told you for all three dresses; the amount per dress was about the same and we did not pay double.
Additionally, when I spoke to the employees over the phone they told us that it was illegal to tell me or the bridesmaids their sizes when measured the second time. Yet when I called again it was fine to release that information. And the dresses were very wrinkled despite being told they were fully steamed. Only after querying did the employee finally admit to my bridesmaids that they were only partially steamed (not as it was stated in the release form they had to sign when taking the dresses). Also, when the bridesmaids discussed the sizes in shop on pick up and when I discussed them over the phone, the size the dresses are ordered by kept changing. Hence my comment regarding conflicting information.
Furthermore, we did not select the sizes in store; only the measurements were taken on that first visit because we were not sure where we would be ordering them from yet. We decided the final sizes over the phone, not via email. Initially the sizes were even bigger which we were worried about and only after a second phone call did we agree to the sizes you suggested. I did not pick them myself nor did I contradict myself above. We were told one set of sizes. I said that seemed a bit big. The shop phoned back and gave another set of sizes (1 size smaller). We still said we were worried they were a bit big but were told that was normal bridal practice by the shop so we trusted your recommendations. No contradiction there.
Lastly, I feel that it is very unprofessional and inconsiderate to be copying in our personal email correspondence (which includes my bridesmaids sizes) for the public to see. Your response clearly demonstrates the argumentative approach we have faced ever since raising the question of the sizes. Regardless of whether the sizes ordered are correct or incorrect, we have moved past this point and merely want to point out the poor customer service we have received in response to this issue. It is fantastic that other brides have had a good experience with your business. However, when encountering a query from a customer, it is not good practice to become defensive and argumentative as it only exacerbates the situation. We are not money hungry, ignorant customers, just ones that expect good service with a smile. This could have been explained and resolved much more calmly and less defensively with the same outcome and we would have been very happy customers.

It is not normally our policy to respond a 2nd time on post, but feel it's important to address your post. It is by no means to distress you or to argue with you, as I agree with you that it can only it is not good practice to become defensive and argumentative as it only exacerbates the situation, however when they do post on a national review site it is important that we put our side of the events on for viewers to make their own opinion.
We have never been argumentative with you, however when you are being accused of a wrong doing, it is natural for anyone to defend themselves.
My apologies for stating that your alteration lady charged you double; this was an error on my part after reading your post. You say that the total for the 3 dresses cost you the same as it would have if you used our seamstress which underlines that the normal amount of tailoring has been done in this case, so really perplexed as to why you would want us to pay for the alteration costs if you thought it would have been the same, and one of your girls had lost quite a bit of weight which you had clearly stated when we spoke.
However I do need to point out to the email conversation we had previously. When initially questioned on the alteration cost
"The alterations costs with us would have been approx £30 each, some less and some a little more depending on the design, but we do ours at trade price, not shop price."
your reply
"The dress alterations are £170 total not each:
[Name removed] £45
[Name removed] £65 (because of the pockets)
[Name removed] £60 (because of the pleating detail)"
So you can see the prices are not what they would have been if you did them with us.
Because of protection she was correct on this point, however as you had signed the order form and because of the nature of the complaint it was important that we demonstrated the measurements against the sizes ordered, this was cleared with our legal team before I called you.
As for the dresses being partially steamed, I can only go over what we have already discussed over the telephone and on this review, and as per the paperwork given to you with your order. The gowns are partially steamed to ensure that we have checked the fabric, it's important that the gowns are not fully steamed at this point as you will lose the crispness of the fabric. The gowns are handled a lot before the wedding, so it makes sense to have them steamed fully a few days before the wedding. If you wish to have the gowns fully steamed we would have done so if you had requested it, there is no charge for steaming with us.
Sizes were discussed in the store because I was present to this, we did highlight the fact that one of your bride maids thought the dress was a perfect size and we did say that it was tight to get the zip up and there was overhang slightly. Yes there was another phone call with different sizes because Alfred Angelo had just bought out new sizes, which takes an inch of the bust and puts on the waist and hips making fitting a bit better. At the time of deciding the sizes we did discuss it over the telephone, but you were party to all the information and the choice was yours on what sizes to go for, but you did go with our suggestions which you were correct to do so.
As regard to the fact we have listed the girls sizes, and emails, (we have not printed full names or disclosed email addresses) it was important to demonstrate that we are not at fault here, and this was the only way in doing so. You must remember that if you are attacking someone on a public review site it is natural for the other person to defend their selves.
It is never our wish for any of our customers to feel that they have been treated badly or unfairly, and sometimes it is un-avoidable if the customer truly feels that they are in the right – no one wins in this situation, but it is important for the viewers of these posts to see both sides of the debate.

Add to EJ Playlist "Balance" (Equilibrio) es una animación alemana de 1989. Fue producida por los hermanos gemelos Wolfgang y Christoph Lauenstein.
El cortometraje muestra a cinco personas que viven en una pequeña plataforma flotante en el espacio. Cada vez que uno de ellos se mueve, los demás deben hacer lo mismo para garantizar que la plataforma no se voltee. El grupo trabaja en cooperación para mantener un "equilibrio" hasta que una persona tira de una caja y la trae a la plataforma. Puesto que todos tienen curiosidad de saber que es la caja, individualmente tratan de inspeccionar la caja y sus acciones rompen el equilibrio de la plataforma.
Add to EJ Playlist Poor 10-year-old Lucas Nickle (voiced by Zach Tyler Eisen) can't get a break. Recently moved to a new city with his family, he hasn't made a single friend. He gets nothing but grief from his teenage sister Tiffany (voiced by Allison Mack) and not a whole lot of attention lately from his parents (voiced by Cheri Oteri and Larry Miller), who are busy planning their big anniversary weekend trip to Puerto Vallarta. Meanwhile, his loving but kinda kooky grandmother Mommo (voiced by Lily Tomlin) spends all her time trying to protect the family from those outer-space aliens she's been reading about in the grocery store magazines.
To make matters worse, Lucas has become the number one target of local bully Steve (voiced by Myles Jeffrey), who never misses an opportunity to push him around.
In turn, Lucas delights in destroying ant hills in his front yard venting his frustration on the defenseless mounds of dirt and their tiny inhabitants by kicking them, stomping them and squirting them with the garden hose.
But, unbeknownst to Lucas, there is a whole world alive and busy just under his feet and what he sees as "just a bunch of little ants" are actually members of a complex society, with names and relationships, responsibilitie s and emotions. They're getting mighty tired of having their homes trampled by Lucas The Destroyer. And they're ready to fight back.
The magic potion that Wizard Ant Zoc (voiced by Nicolas Cage) has long been working on is finally finished. One drop in Lucas's gigantic human ear and he is instantly shrunken down to ant size and taken deep below the ant hill to be placed on trial.
The Head of the Ant Council (voiced by Ricardo Montalban) proclaims Lucas guilty of "crimes against the colony." Sentenced by the wise Ant Queen (voiced by Meryl Streep) to live among the ants and learn their ways to earn his freedom, Lucas finds himself in an incredible landscape suddenly teeming with life and peril that he never noticed or even imagined before, and embarks on the adventure of a lifetime.
Against Zoc's wishes, his kind-hearted partner, Nurse Ant Hova (voiced by Julia Roberts), volunteers to mentor the miniaturized human boy. Hoping to teach Lucas the ways of the colony and help him find that one special talent he has to contribute, she has her hands full (all six of them) just keeping him away from trouble and out of the stomachs of greedy frogs and marauding wasps, with the help of no-nonsense Forager Kreela (voiced by Regina King) and the garrulous Scout Fugax (voiced by Alan Cumming).
As Lucas adjusts to his most unusual circumstances, he learns valuable lessons about friendship, compassion, teamwork and loyalty that will serve him for the rest of his life. He also begins to gain the courage to stand up for himself no matter what the odds.
Lucas's newfound "ant skills" will be put to the test when he is called upon to help his new friends defend the colony against certain annihilation from the local exterminator (Paul Giamatti as the voice of greasy, growling Stan Beals), in an epic life-and-death struggle waged on the Nickles' front lawn.

The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on a case closely watched by the biotechnology industry that addresses the patentability of genes, Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics.
In 2009, the American Civil Liberties Union and the Public Patent Foundation filed a lawsuit charging that Myriad's patents on the BRCA1 and BRAC2 genes, which have been linked to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, should not have been awarded because they are products of nature and therefore ineligible for patent protection. They argue that the patents harm innovation because Myriad can control who can use these genes.
Myriad argues that by isolating the genes from DNA and producing man-made copies of the isolated DNA, it created unique chemical composition not found in nature or the human body. "We patented synthetic molecules based on the genes that were created in the lab in order to delivery life-saving tests to patients," the company says on its website. "Those molecules are not found in the human body and are different from the DNA found in cells."
The case is one of great concern to academic researchers as well as the biotechnology industry. The ruling could have lasting effects on the ability to commercialize products, such as molecular diagnostics, alter the valuation of companies, the ability to raise capital, and the willingness to invest in certain research and development.
"There's a lot riding on this obviously," says Jim Greenwood, president and CEO of the trade association the Biotechnology Industry Organization. "If they get it wrong, they can really do some damage to our ability to innovate new products."
The oral arguments reflect the difficulty the justices had in getting at some of the complexities in the case, evident in the variety of metaphors used to describe aspects of their considerations, ranging from baseball bats to chocolate chip cookies.
In the end, the justices appeared to be concerned about striking a balance between the need to allow researchers and others the freedom to operate without erecting disincentives and barriers to innovation.
"The patent law is filled with uneasy compromises, because on the one hand, we do want people to invent," said Justice Stephen Breyer. "On the other hand, we're very worried about them tying up some kind of whatever it is, particularly a thing that itself could be used for further advance."

Stoke still searching for first away victory
Posted: November 20, 2012|
West Ham United and Stoke City stayed in their respective Premier League positions – seventh and 14th – following a 1-1 draw at Upton Park last night. Tony Pulis' side were chasing their first away win since January, and took a step towards securing it when Jonathan Walters gave them the lead after 12 minutes with what appeared to be a well-rehearsed set-piece move. But having reached half-time with their lead intact, Stoke were undone just two minutes into the second period when Joey O'Brien scored his first top-flight goal to earn West Ham a deserved share of the spoils.

The son of two lesbian mothers, the 19-year-old University of Iowa engineering student had no idea that his heartfelt testimony that day would spread like viral wildfire, and even land him on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. A state champion in high school debate and multiple national finalist in competitive acting, Zach was no stranger to speaking before an audience. Yet, he had never talked about his family in a public setting or in such open and candid terms.
On his way home from the public hearing, he thought that his work was, for all practical purposes, finished. Just two days after he testified during that hearing, however, a YouTube video of his testimony went viral, garnering nearly two million views with millions more via Facebook, Twitter, national and international television, and other online media. Although initially hesitant to share his story on such a vast stage, Zach remembered the famed words of his favorite superhero's uncle, Ben Parker: "With great power comes great responsibility." Never before in his life had he had such an opportunity to stand up and speak out on behalf of his family. So he did what any of us would do, deciding to advocate for family and families like his all over the country.
After appearing on numerous television programs in person and his testimony airing on MSNBC, ABC, CBS and CNN, Zach found himself working on a book, My Two Moms: Lessons of Love, Strength, and What Makes a Family (2012). Zach shares a story that has never before been told, and offers a fresh, bold perspective on a recently rekindled - and always contentious - issue: gay marriage.
Zach Wahls visit to campus is jointly sponsored by the Athenaeum and the Berger Institute for Work, Family, and Children.

For his own part, Kleinzahler doesnt like to call himself a poet. He says most poets are shiftless, no-account fools. Yet he has been very successful avoiding this stereotype; his work has been described by The New York Times as a modernist swirl of sex, surrealism, urban life and melancholy with a jazzy beat.
Kleinzahler was born in Jersey City, New Jersey, in 1949, and raised in Fort Lee, New Jersey. After graduating from the University of Victoria, he wrote a music column for the San Diego Reader before starting his career as an author, essayist, and poet. He is the author of ten books of poetry, including: The Strange Hours Travelers Keep (2004), winner of the International Griffin Poetry Prize; Live from the Hong Kong Nile Club: Poems: 1975-1990 (2000); Green Sees Things in Waves (1999); and Red Sauce, Whiskey and Snow (1995). He is also the author of the meditative memoir Cutty, One Rock: Low Characters and Strange Places, Gently Explained (2004).
His reputation as a divisive, opinionated figure was confirmed in 2004 when he wrote a scathing response to Garrison Keillors poetic taste on his NPR segment in Poetry Magazine. He critiqued Keillor for his persistent selection of only anecdotal and wistful poems.
Kleinzahlers honors include a fellowship from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Lila Acheson-Readers Digest Award for Poetry, an Academy Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, a Berlin Prize Fellowship, the Griffin International Poetry Prize, and the post of poet laureate in Fort Lee, New Jersey.
August Kleinzahler is a visiting lecturer in the department of literature and a Gould Fellow.

EDMOND, Okla. – Residents in southeast Edmond are cleaning up damage caused by a tornado that rolled through several neighborhoods Sunday evening near Bryant Ave. between 15th St. and 33rd St.
The twister damaged several homes and uprooted dozens of trees.
"It was seven, eight, nine seconds of the most intense white light and wind blowing like nothing I'd ever seen in my life," Chris Brennan said.
In the Thornbrooke Village edition a brick wall bordering Bryan Ave. was flattened.
Several residents said they could feel the air pressure change and their ears popping.
"I was afraid we were going to come out and half of our house was going to be gone," Leslie Zacker said. "We heard that 'boom' when the front door blew open."
Shannon Cross and her family took shelter in their closet.
"We were just hunkering down with an Iron Man helmet on the kids and the baseball helmets on and the winds started whipping up and the house started shaking and our ears popped," she said. "The next thing I knew, our neighbors burst in the door and said 'Are you guys OK?'"
The Red Cross brought supplies to help residents in the area without power.


text: Kristall Lite Heeb November 3, 2011 Culture 4 Comments Herschel Grynszpan By Suzanne Friedman Let's not allow another Kristallnacht anniversary to pass without paying homage to Herschel Grynszpan, the Jewish teen responsible for this night different from all others. Herschel, a seventeen year old Polish misfit was adrift in France and disgruntled over his parent's deportation. On November 7, 1938, he strode into the German Embassy in Paris and requested a meeting. When ushered into an office, he fired a concealed revolver and mortally wounded Ernst vom Rath, the Nazi diplomat. Ernst vom Rath Two days later on November 9th, 1938, Kristallnacht. Herschel was a smart boy. Whipping into action, he claimed he was having an affair with vom Rath, a homosexual. In the Third Reich, it was admirable to be a brute and a sadist–but a feigelah? Verboten. Little is known about the true fate of Herschel Grynszpan. And historians are still trying to ascertain if vom Rath's dying words were, "Is that a pistol in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" Suzanne Friedman is a talented agent who writes, rescues beached creatures, fashions Jewish jellyfish from yarmulkes and tzitzit, and is the mother of Carlen Altman–creator of Jewish Rosaries. What do you think? 4 Responses adam November 7, 2011 herschel was not responsible for kristallnacht. i thought a heeb writer would be a little more thoughtful before assigning blame to a jew for nazi atrocities. oh and 'kristall lite', i get it, because he was gay and therefore not a real man or something, like crystal light is not real ice tea. classy. Reply Martin H. Leaf December 25, 2011 The article is offensive and is something one would expect from a neo-Nazi writer. First, we do know what happened to Grynszpan: He was beaten, tortured, and then murdered by the Nazis. We also know that Grynszpan's actions did not "cause" kristallnacht: Nazis caused kristallnacht, so Herschel is not "responsible" for Kritallnacht (you begrudge Goebbels and Streicher some credit?). This so called "misfit", "disgruntled", and "adrift" that you also mock, from the safety of your home in America, was a hero of the Jewish people because he took action against a Nazi, well after Nazis had declared a racial war of genocide against the Jewish people, and well after the Nazis had already committed war crimes against the Jewish people (the Nuremberg racial laws of 1935 are considered war crimes, as well as the forced "deportation" of Germany's Jewish citizens, and the stealing of their property, etc…). If Jews had emulated the heroic act of Grynszpan, or paid attention to Kristallnacht, the Nazi murderers would have paid a heavier price, or maybe many more Jews would have lived. But all of those arguments probably don't mean anything to someone as concrete and pragmatic as you. So let me put it this way: Your daughter would probably not be the great macher and light unto the world that she is, by selling Jewish rosaries, if she faced the conditions that Grynszpan and his family, or any other Jewish teen and their family, faced in 1938 in Nazi Germany which is where Grynspan's family was from, even though they retained their Polish citizenship, which was of no value at that time. At best she would have been "adrift", "misfit", and if she cared about anyone, "disgruntled". Before you apologize for such a desecration of a murdered hero that endured torture beyond imagination, for standing up against a genocide aimed at you, ask yourself why you hate yourself so much. Let it go.

Legalizing Same-Sex Marriage: An Obligation Not a Decision
Regardless of race, ethnicity, or religion, men and women across the world are guaranteed, under international law, the opportunity to enter into marriage with one another. However, throw sexual orientation into the mix, and the right to marriage is no longer universally applicable. Same-sex marriage, a major source of contention in current U.S. politics, is prohibited by a majority of the world's nations. While state's laws that deny same-sex couples the opportunity to legally marry are discriminatory, does an international human right protecting gay marriage exist? There is an international human right to gay marriage, and denying same-sex couples the right to marry is a violation of international human rights law. In accordance with both treaty law and international customary law, states are obliged to ensure all individuals the fundamental right to marriage. Refusing same-sex couples the right to marry violates the principle of nondiscrimination and the individual's right to privacy, marriage, association, and dignity.

This small tool aids you in getting the coordinates for your polyline or polygon.
By: Martin Ove
Hi all.
I made a little tool, which can make the process of finding coordinates for polygons and polylines in Google Maps a lot easier and intuitive.
It lets you draw a line with multiple points by just clicking on the map. When you're done, you just copy-paste the coordinates for further use.
Check it out: martinove.dk/maptools/polytool/
I made it for myself, as I needed to create some polygons for a little project. The process of finding the coordinates is very tiresome, bordering impossible. With this tool, it should be a breeze.
I tested it using IE9, Firefox 4 and Google Chrome, and had no problems.
1. Go to the area, that you want to work with.
2. Click "Start Plot". When you click the map, it will register the coordinates and append it to area below the map.
3. When you're done, go to the coordinates below the map and copy-paste them.
That's it, you can now use the coordinates as you wish.
Notes: You can disable and activate the plotting as y0u wish. That might be useful, if you find the behavior annoying while navigating the map. You can also undo the added coordinates by pressing the button "remove last".
If you have no idea, what to do with the coordinates, check out the documentation at Google here: Google Maps JavaScript API V3 and specifically the stuff about polylines and polygons here: Polylines. (polygons are just below that)
I hope you find it useful.
Here's a short video demo. The quality is awful, but I hope it gets the message across. Go to 720p and play in fullscreen for the best result.

Fun NES game but very short only 5 levels. The bosses aren't too hard but they may take a few tries to beat if you don't know their attacks & weaknesses. Also your kick and leg sweep attacks are your best attacks since your punch has a shorter range.

Twelve YMCA/USA Wahoo swimmers and assistant coach Zack Moore attended the Carolina Aquatics May Breakout LC Invite at the USC Natatorium in Columbia over Memorial Day weekend.
This is the second long course meet of the season. The swimmers and coaches have been training hard on a daily basis to prepare for long course and short course meets.
All 12 swimmers earned personal best times throughout the weekend. The seed times for all swimmers were incorrect and the kids and parents were feeling the stress of matching times that did not exist.
This did not stop the Wahoo swimmers from giving 100 percent and there were 58 personal best times set at the meet.
Emma Sullivan went 10 for 10 in cutting times and made a state cut in the 400 free.
Hannan Mackey went seven for seven, earning an A Time in the 100 free, and a state cut in the 50 free.
Michael Paglio set personal best times in seven of nine events and earned a state cut in the 400 individual medley to give him seven state cuts. Paglio is also ranked in the top 10 in the state in the 50 butterfly.
Peyton Little swam hard and earned a BB Time in her 50 fly.
John Grey Crosby went seven of eight in cutting times and earned a state cut in the 50 free, which gives him five total state cuts so far this season.
Cameron Bonham had an outstanding meet and set seven of eight personal best times.
J.J. Tupacz also had a good meet and earned six of nine personal best times.
Benjamin Richards made his first appearance in long course and did a great job. Mia Paglio and Tee Tupacz both had three personal best times.
Jonah Crosby set two personal best times and is currently ranked in the top 10 in the state in the 50 Free.
The Wahoos continue to train every week and are participating in two YMCA Meets and one Long Course Meet in June.
The YMCA/USA Wahoos will be hosting a home meet at the Georgetown County Family YMCA on June 28.
The Wahoos are always looking for new swimmers. For more information on joining the team or taking swim lessons contact the YMCA at 843-545-9622 or www.coastalcarolinaymca.org.

In Derbyshire and elsewhere in the English Midlands, internal moulds of Carboniferous sea-lily stems are referred to as screwstones. This peculiar fossil preservation results from the dissolution, by percolating groundwaters, of the calcite skeleton of the stem itself, leaving a sediment-filled axial hole. The width of this hole expands and contracts along the length of the stem, being widest at the joints between the columnals and narrowest at their centres. The flanged structure resembles a screw but the flanges are separate and do not form a continuous helical thread like a true screw.
A totally different kind of screwstone, which is helical, is formed by the internal moulds of snail shells.
