A simple yet informative presentation from Adam Bonica of Stanford University reveals some interesting findings on political leanings.
Using more than 85 million records since 1979 to form a campaign finance database, Bonica is able to dissect the leanings of particular individuals and institutions.
He finds that Academics, Newspaper and Print Media, the Entertainment Industry, and Online Computer Services all have fairly liberal political leanings. On the other hand, Oil, Gas & Coal, Mining, Building & Construction, and Agriculture all sit more to the ideological right.
These results are mostly intuitive, given that conservatives tend to support natural resources expansion and liberals are more apt to back education and wealth equality.
Corporate board members were also ranked on their ideologies, and the same pattern generally holds.
Board members of energy companies have conservative preferences while technology entities are more liberal. The rest of the field sits mainly in the middle, perhaps because they are likely to endorse and support whatever politicians currently sit in office, regardless of affiliation.

Crazy paper thing The Adventures of an Urban Socialite™ How To: Beachy Waves - Cupcakes and Cashmere. How to Write Shape Relief Alphabet! Bubble trouble. Every day I faced off against lackluster tresses, while two friends of mine couldn't stop raving about their own glossy, sexy hair.
They had recently stopped shampooing — just went cold turkey — and the results were marvelous. Both are decidedly un-crunchy, so I knew they weren't making some hippieish statement about evil soap conglomerates or shampoo pollution in our waterways; this no-suds policy, I reasoned, must actually be good for hair. What did I have to lose? I tossed out my shampoo, began simply rinsing my hair in the shower every day, and waited to be dazzled by my new chemical-free, naturally lustrous mane. The payoff was a while in coming, and I soon regretted having told everyone about my little experiment. Judah Method - Bleaching Experemnet on the Behance Network.

"When people get here, they start to create some language around what they have felt before but haven't been able to name. And I think that's what 'integral' is."

Washington insurance rate increases proposed
The state insurance commissioner says the average price hike, which would take effect both inside and outside of the state health exchange, is the lowest in seven years.
The plans and their rate proposals are under review by the state. Seventeen health insurance companies have filed proposals for more than 230 individual health plans across Washington. Some are new to the market.
The proposed rate increases go as high as 14 and 26 percent, for plans outside Washington Healthplanfinder.
One company, Molina Healthcare, has proposed a rate decrease of 6.8 percent.
If approved, the new rates would go into effect in 2015.

Flying continues to be one of the most expensive forms of travel. While you may not stumble into the incredible deals that you could have found 10 or 15 years ago, it's still possible to bring down your final bill. If you're itching to go on vacation, there are a few techniques you'll want to try out to see if you can find cheaper tickets.
1. Be flexible. Airlines know that people travel at specific times and are more than happy to jack prices up during those periods. In order to avoid this, try being flexible with your travel arrangements. For instance, August tends to be more expensive when flying in and out of Europe, as the entire continent essentially goes on holiday during that time. It's also usually less expensive to travel in the middle of the week than at the beginning or on the weekend, so try to find a ticket for Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday if possible.
2. Fly secondary airports. Major airports come with major airlines, which tend to charge more than smaller carriers. Smaller airports charge less in the way of landing fees, which means you may be able to find a better deal when flying to your destination. If you're staying within the United States, you have a better chance of finding success with this strategy.
3. Set a price. Don't simply say you're going to look for the lowest price and operate under that assumption - chances are, you'll miss out on the best deal and have to overpay for a ticket. Tell yourself exactly how much you'd like to pay and snatch up those tickets the minute you find them.

Letter: Upside down
Hank Bahmer, Golden Gate Estates
Upside down
In many cities over the United States, veterans and others are showing the extreme distress America is in by displaying their American flags flown upside down.
Since the parasites have now outnumbered the producers in the U.S. and have managed to re-elect President Barack Obama, our nation has never before seen the distress we will experience for the next four years.
I encourage all patriots to follow the proud example of those veterans who fly their flags upside down.

Grecians playmaker Ryan Harley says he's in top form
Posted: September 03, 2010|
PLAYMAKER Ryan Harley believes he is in the best form of his career to date.
The midfielder has started the 2010/11 campaign in blistering form, scoring four goals in the club's first five games, including an excellent free-kick in the 3-1 Johnstone's Paint Trophy win over Yeovil Town on Tuesday night.
And Harley hopes there are even better things to come, starting with tomorrow's npower League One clash with Charlton Athletic at St James's Park.
He said: "I would say that I'm in the best form since I joined Exeter and hopefully it will continue.
"I chipped in with 10 goals last season, but my fourth goal last year was against Leeds in the middle of the season.
"This time I have got four for the season already. I usually set myself a target of 10 goals for a season, but I have four already so hopefully I will be able to go beyond that.
"But to be honest I just look to score as many goals as I can — I look to score in every game."
Harley's goalscoring prowess has epitomised City's potency in front of goal so far this season.
Paul Tisdale's men have struck two or more goals in four of their five outings so far and Harley admitted he has been pleased with the ruthlessness he and the rest of the City team have shown in front of goal so far this term.
"I think everyone realises how we are a lot better going forward this year," Harley said.
"We just seem to be more effective going forward. I don't know why, it's hard to put a finger on it, but hopefully we will just keep on getting better and better and better."
Victory at Huish Park helped Harley and his teammates to get over last Saturday's disappointing 3-0 defeat to Leyton Orient.
Harley compared that loss to City's 4-0 reversal at Huddersfield Town last season, where Tisdale's side failed to show what they were made of. He hopes the Grecians do not suffer any more defeats of that nature this season.
The 25-year-old said: "It was good we had a game on Tuesday to get last Saturday out of our system straight away. We needed a performance and we can move forward now.
"The game at Huddersfield last year was the only game where we suffered a really bad defeat and hopefully the Leyton Orient game will be the only really bad defeat we will have this year.
"You hope you don't get any defeats like that, but it can happen to anyone and we are just looking forward now."
Harley says he is unsure whether Charlton will emerge as serious promotion contenders this season.
But he is confident that plenty of City fans will want to see the hosts take on their former Premier League opponents.
Harley said: "We always seem to do better against the bigger sides in the league — you don't need to get up for it and there will always be a bigger crowd for games like this one.
"Charlton are a big club who were in the Premiership for years so we are looking forward to it and hope we will get a performance. It will be a big scalp for us if we get a result."

Supplement classroom learning with a hands-on experience in one of Portland's Parks or Natural Areas.
Give your students an exciting learning experience in nature! Our naturalists are highly trained and experienced (many holding or pursuing advanced degrees in education and/or ecological topics). Lessons contain a combination of large group learning, small group exploration, and individual engagement. We believe in:
What's included?
When are programs offered?
From Labor Day through Memorial Day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 9:30am and 1:30pm. We may be able to offer a program on a weekend if staff is available. Unfortunately, due to our summer camp schedule we are unable to offer field trips in the summer. Our fall season begins September 8 and runs through November 19, 2015
What does it cost?
We prefer to work with a maximum of 36 students at a time, and can certainly work with less. However, there is a 12 student minimum charge.
60 minutes = $5.00/student (great for Preschool and Kindergarten students. Another great option is a Ladybug Walk as a preschool field trip! Click HERE for more information!)
90 minutes = $6.50/student (great for grades K-8)
120 minutes = $8.00/student (great for grades 6-12 or groups desiring more learning time on the trail)
Interested in service learning?
We offer stewardship projects for students in 3rd grade and up. We can work with 1 class (up to 36 students) when a field trip is paired with a stewardship project. Students will spend one hour with one of our Stewardship Coordinators & an hour with our naturalists (total length of program is 2 hours). Lesson goals will vary depending on site, but will include importance of stewardship, habitat components, interconnectedness and human impacts. Students may remove invasive plants or plant natives. These programs cost $5/student.
How do I schedule a program?
Arranging a program takes time. Please allow at least a full month for coordination.
Supplemental Classroom programs
Classroom programs are only offered in conjunction with field trips and are conducted prior to going in the field. We charge $60 for the first hour and $20 for each additional hour. This can be a great way to get students ready for the field component.
Limited funds?
For schools receiving Title 1 funds discounts are available for our programs. Please ask.
Where are field trips located?
We will work with you to select a park or natural area that fits the needs of the program topic.
Topics **This section is CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION as we move to align with standards and grade level unit lessons at Portland Public Schools. We have offered the following in the past:
Amphibians Find slippery salamanders under logs and frogs hopping through fields. Students will learn about amphibian anatomy, life cycles, habitat, behavior, and their importance in the environment.
Birds Learn about bird biology, behavior, and identification. This lesson requires two class periods: an in-class lesson will introduce your students to some common Portland birds. Next, visit a local park where we will identify birds in the wild and hone observation skills. We can also do a second classroom program on bird migration to focus on why birds migrate and the hazards they face, and play a game to reinforce understanding. B
Botany Take a walk with a trained naturalist to learn about any of the following: tree and plant identification, photosynthesis, poisonous plants, edible and medicinal plants, invasive and native plants, seeds, seasons, and plant life cycles. We may also play a game or do an experiment to reinforce science topics.
FBI Fungus, Bacteria & Invertebrates, oh my! Turn over leaves and logs, and dig in the soil to discover decomposers in a park near you. Students will learn how to identify different species and find out why they are so incredibly important to the ecosystem.
Geology Explore the rocks and soils of the Northwest! Touch and weigh rocks that are thousands to millions of years old and compare them to the eroded soils of today's landscape. Climb a volcano and discover how Oregon was shaped by volcanic activity.
Habitats & Ecology Students will learn the four things that creatures need to survive, and how all living things are connected. Take a nature walk and uncover teachable moments while playing Habitat Bingo to compare the characteristics of different habitats.
Invasive Plant Math Find out firsthand just why invasive plants are so successful in taking over natural areas! Use your math skills to count the number of potential plants from a blackberry or dandelion seed head.
Nature Awareness Find out which animals live in Portland's parks. Students will learn to walk through the forest using deer ears, owl eyes, and the fox walk in order to see more wildlife. We will analyze and identify animal signs along the way!
Navigation We will teach your students how to navigate using compasses (provided by PP&R) in your classroom. Next, students will embark on an exciting treasure hunt in a local park or school yard while practicing their skills. Requires a two hour field trip.
Poetry Hike Make the poetry of Frost and Whitman come alive! Take a hike using your senses (smell, see, touch, hear). Develop descriptive language skills and then take some time to write your own nature poetry.
Water Quality Conduct chemical tests (oxygen, pH, temperature, turbidity) or look at the living creatures in the water to determine water quality. Look at macroinvertebrates (water bugs) from a local water body. Then play a game of Macroinvertebrate Mayhem! to see how pollution affects biodiversity.

WellDBA Exam™
Just like it sounds – a thorough health and wellness examination of your SQL Server environment. Linchpin People will check over 80 critical points of your instances, their settings, how they are being managed, and their performance. We look at the critical issues you are suffering from now, but we also focus on systemic wellness for the future. Our people will ask you questions, talk to your team, and identify potential future problems or roadblocks. We make sure that your SQL Server environment is lined up properly for the future you expect out of it. Our process takes a little longer and digs a little deeper than the health checks some people perform, but don't you think your databases and important information are worth the time and expertise?
WellDBA Exam™ + deep workload performance tuning analysis.
Some customers are just looking for a quick checkup. Some customers need a much deeper investigation when they are having performance problems. In our deep workload analysis, we will perform our normal WellDBA Exam™, and also capture a tremendous amount of extra information from your servers. Using a variety of tools that we have written, as well as tools from leading ISVs that we partner with, we will take a highly detailed look at your SQL system performance. This add on to the core WellDBA Exam guarantees that we identify the root cause of your performance problems, or you won't pay for the time.
Need help with your SQL Server Environment?
Request your exam!
WellDBA™ Managed & Urgent Care
Our core team of Database Wellness Experts has over 100 years of combined experience in managing the expectations and demands of a production SQL Server environment. Most companies call an SQL service provider only when they have database issues and are in trouble. Linchpin People® can be in your back pocket and on call when you need us as an urgent care specialist.
Our WellDBA™ Managed Care offering could have even more benefit to your company. Linchpin People® will get to know your environment, you will get to know our team, and when questions and problems arise, you won't have to go through the new patient process with us all over again. Since we will already be familiar with your environment, know your SQL Server needs, and understand the full range of your data, there will be less downtime and a better end result when resolving a database problem. This can work well for teams without DBAs, but it can allow any team to have expertise available, and not need a full time Senior DBA Consultant on staff.

Monday 10th June 2013
It's OFFICIAL – Fuse ODG's massive summer smash "Antenna" is in the UK Top Ten!! The track was a new entry at number 7 on the Official Chart, the second highest new entry just behind Union J who charted at number 6 with their new single "Carry You".
This really IS New Africa – "Antenna" is the highest chart position for any Afrobeats track to date, D'Banj's "Oliver Twist" debuted at Number 9 back in May 2012.
Fuse joined Jameela Jamil in the BBC Radio 1 studio to yesterday to talk about the single. He also had a lot of FUN teaching Jameela how to dance to Antenna.
If you want to see how it's really done check out the winners of the Antenna dance competition.
OR take a look at the official video which features the legendary Wyclef Jean throwing some pretty slick moves in a backpack!
Stars of the urban scene took to Twitter to congratulate Fuse on his success – among them label-mate (and fellow Ghanaian) Sway, Lethal Bizzle and Toddla T.
If you didn't get your copy of "Antenna" yet, you can download it here.
Tuesday 2nd April 2013
People's Prince Charlie Sloth has chosen "Soapbox" – the new single from "Magnetic Eyes" star Baby Blue – to be his Record of The Week! The track will play out every day this week on Charlie's 1Xtra drivetime show between 4 and 7pm. Baby Blue will join him live in the 1Xtra studio on Thursday, April 4th.
Best known for her recent chart smash with Matrix & Futurebound, the London based singer, rapper, songwriter and all round superstar returns to her rap roots with "Soapbox". The tough-talking street track has Blue throwing out punchline after punchline and features the production skills of hot new talent Diztortion (currently grabbing attention for his work on Stylo G's "Soundbwoy" and Lethal Bizzle's "They Got It Wrong" featuring Wiley).
If you didn't already see the video for "Soapbox", made by SBTV, you can check it out here.
Charlie Sloth debuted the track in March and Blue joined him on the phone…jokes! If you missed it the first time round you can listen back here.
Since then it's been getting spins across 1Xtra (DJ Target, Viz, Nick Bright), Choice FM (Woody, Manny Norte, Firin Squad, Ras Kwame) and Rinse FM.

At 2 p.m. on Saturday, February 8, the Ave Maria University Papists Rugby team hosted the University of Miami for the first home match of the 2014 season. In a match that was forecast to be a tight contest, it was the hosts that brought the real surprise to their home faithful. From the very first kickoff until the final whistle the Ave Maria team in blue and gold put on a show for the crowd of several hundred.
Led by Senior Captain Christopher Audino (30 points vs. UM), AMU took the game to their formidable opponents. Coming on the heels of a 36-0 victory on the road last week to local rivals Florida Gulf Coast University, the young Catholic University's rugby team put in a performance for the record books. Most likely recording the largest athletic victory in University history, Ave Maria sent their opponents home with a 75-0 defeat.
The final score of this particular contest came as a result of suffocating defense and 11 tries (5 points and the rugby equivalent of a touchdown) with 10 kick conversions made (2 points each). It was a historic day for Ave Maria University and a thrilling day of rugby for the home supporters. 75-0 is a scoreline that will resound around Florida as Ave Maria University has become a force to contend with. AMU will host Florida Atlantic University this upcoming Saturday, Feb. 15 at 2 p.m. at the Rugby field at the south end of Ave Maria University's campus.

text: Everyone collects something and maybe some of us collect more than others.:) This layout is for a Disney challenge about Disney Collections. Many people collect things when they travel to the parks, things like: character photos, autographs, Disney Trading pins, menus, photos of hidden mickeys, mouse ear hats, tshirts, charms, beanie babies, vinyl characters, .... I collect pins, dated mugs, ornaments, and charms. I only have about 3 sterling silver charms because I just started that collection on my last trip, but I have been collecting the enamel charms for years and I have a very jingly bracelet. Its getting a bit worn, but I will still wear it when I go to the parks because it makes me happy. I used all October Afternoon papers and then made some flowers out of cardstock. Oh and the challenge was also to use Sketch #70 from SketchSavvy :).

Four months after debuting its calorie-conscious morning sandwiches [2], Subway has declared its breakfast a success [3], with sales exceeding expectations and more sandwiches on the way.
Meanwhile, Jack in the Box announced its latest product, The Breakfast Pita Pocket [4], will also be a fit-friendly morning option. The fast food chain's new item, priced at $2.69, will feature a whole-grain pita pocket with eggs, bacon, ham, and American cheese.
I'm not surprised to learn that specialty coffee drinks and breakfast sandwiches are the fastest-growing items [5] in fast food. Wendy's and Taco Bell are both rolling out programs next year [6], and I'm willing to bet there'll be at least one healthy morning option on each. Are you happy to see these chains offering healthier breakfast? Do you ever eat fast food in the morning?

|SAHA Loses Theater License in 3-2 Vote
|Written by Steve Frank
|Monday, 25 August 2014 06:14
In a three to two vote, the Boone Town Council emerged from a long executive session in the early morning hours Friday to end the license with the Southern Appalachian Historical Association for their use of the Daniel Boone Theater,
just as the season for the group's Horn in the West production concluded. Council members Quint David and Fred Hay joined Jennifer Peña in voting for the motion to end the license... Rennie Brantz and Councilwoman Lynne Mason voted against the motion.
Brantz saying it was "premature," saying "I think it's much too harsh, I know there are serious problems, there have been violations, but I think this is too soon this decision to be made without thinking of what is going to happen with this space, how we're going to use it as a town." Mason saying she couldn't support the motion, "I think it's a very extreme action to take. I am concerned about the repeated violations and the safety issues...but I feel this is too extreme." But councilman Quint David said it was not a quick decision, "I've only been on the council for eight months, but this is a continuing issue the entire time, it's a public safety issue. Some of these same issues we're dealing with now were in the Green report seven years ago, so they've had seven years to address some of this stuff." And he said, "I don't think this is a hasty decision since its exactly the opposite."
The town notified SAHA of the electrical wiring violation receding its final week of performances, but that there was no response from SAHA. The town then took actions to secure the facility, including having the power turned off, but that power was restored in time for the final week of shows. The action, though, does not end licensure for Hickory Ridge Homestead on the property, leaving that operation intact for the remaining licensure. Mayor Andy Ball said that the town staff would prepare a list of violations to submit to the SAHA leadership with the notice of the end of licensure.

By TOM MCCOURTGuest contributor
Last Friday, HR-2454 passed the house by a narrow vote. Obama and Pelosi got their way. The American Clean Energy Act of 2009 (cap and trade) is another step closer to being law. Only the U.S. Senate stands between us and an economic meltdown. The Senate will vote on the bill sometime soon.
The purpose of cap and trade is said to be: "To create clean energy jobs, achieve energy independence, reduce global warming pollution and transition to a clean energy economy." Sounds great, eh? Well, lets look at each part separately.
President Obama made a speech last week in support of the bill and he said the legislation would create "green" jobs for Americans. Unfortunately, green is the color of B.S., at least in this instance. His teleprompter could only name about 5,000 jobs that would be created for sure, and most of those were short-term construction jobs. But he assured us the bill would create many more jobs that he didn't mention. I'm sure he's right. This bill will create a whole new government bureaucracy that will need to be staffed and funded. It's the creation of private sector jobs that is in question.
The president didn't talk about jobs that would be lost, and there might be a million of those. Our core industries like mining, milling, manufacturing, and coal-fired power plants will be hardest hit. Some will close, some will go overseas, and others will cut way back in an effort to reduce carbon emissions. There are sure to be massive lay-offs. This will push us even deeper into a non-producing, service industry economy. Most of those jobs pay less and require only temporary or part-time workers. You know, the kind of jobs Americans don't want. These are the ones we save for illegal aliens.
And then, the president says this bill will put us on the road to energy independence. After killing off our coal-fired power plants, he expects to run the country on wind and sunshine. That's a worthy goal, but the technology isn't there yet. We can't run a single major city with wind and solar power today. How do they expect to run the whole country that way? And besides, the enviro-nazis don't like green energy any more than oil and coal. Every place it's been tried they tie it up in lawsuits because they don't want the power lines or the unsightly wind turbines or acres of solar panels.
If energy independence really is the goal, we could be energy independent in just a few years if only we were smart enough to tap into our god-given oil and coal reserves. Why not do that while the scientists work out the wind and solar technologies of the future? I guess it makes too much sense.
The other goal of this bill is to prevent global warming by reducing CO2 emissions. Excuse me, but CO2 (carbon dioxide) is plant food. Look it up in your high school science book. The other major pollutant they want to stop is water vapor. Hmm, isn't that what rain clouds are made of? And again, there is no human cause for global warming. During the last ice age and altithermal warming event there was not a single smokestack or automobile on earth. And yet it happened anyway. Think about it. Can you say sunspots? I don't think we can control those, even with Obama in charge.
In my humble opinion, this cap and trade fiasco is simply a way for our criminally insane politicians to impose massive new taxes while paying a political debt to their environmental friends. They intend to legislate their big government enviro-socialistic agenda and impose their will through force of law and punitive taxation. Every household in this country will pay for this through much higher energy bills, higher costs for consumer goods, higher layouts for unemployment and welfare, and loss of tax revenues, jobs and individual freedoms. If this becomes the law of the land, we will be living in a whole new world. Talk about change we can believe in.
And so, call and write your senators, and while you're at it, rewrite your household budget to include new taxes, cost increases, fees, and inflation like you've never seen before. Oh yes, and did you know that there's a resolution before Congress to repeal the 22nd amendment and remove term limits for a sitting president? H.J. Resolution 5 would make it possible for Obama to be president for life. I think that's what they have in Venezuela with Hugo Chavez.
Just think of the possibilities.

DES MOINES, Iowa - After playing the same set of numbers on his "Iowa's $100,000 Cash Game" ticket for many years, a Cedar Rapids man won a top prize of $100,000.
Max Morgan, 85, said he randomly chose a set of numbers to play several years ago and was surprised when he saw he'd matched all five numbers in the Nov. 8 drawing.
"I've been playing those same numbers for a long, long time but I was still surprised," Morgan said.
The first person Morgan told was his son, followed by his stepdaughter and his sister.
"They think it's really special for me," he said.
Morgan said he's thinking about using some of his winnings to purchase a condominium. He claimed his prize Nov. 9 at the Iowa Lottery's regional office in Cedar Rapids.
Morgan purchased his winning ticket at Hy-Vee, 1843 Johnson Ave. N.W. in Cedar Rapids.
Players in Iowa's $100,000 Cash Game choose five numbers from a pool of 35. Tickets in the game cost $1 and drawings are held at 8:28 p.m. Monday through Saturday. The odds of winning the game's top prize are 1 in 324,632.
Morgan matched all five numbers in the Nov. 8 Iowa's $100,000 Cash Game drawing to win his $100,000 prize. The winning numbers that day were: 2-6-11-25-33.
Winning numbers may be checked at the lottery website at www.ialottery.com or through the winning numbers' hot line at (515) 323-4633. Winning numbers may also be checked with lottery retail outlets or by calling the lottery at (515) 725-7900 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.

Fed Funds Projected to Open at 0.13% to 0.17%, ICAP Says
May 14 (Bloomberg) -- Fed funds, the U.S. overnight inter-bank lending rate, is projected to open in a range of 0.13 percent to 0.17 percent, within the Federal Reserve's target of zero to 0.25 percent.
Fed funds closed at 0.11 percent on May 11 after trading from 0.08 percent to 0.28 percent and averaging 0.15 percent, ICAP Plc, the world's largest inter-dealer broker, said in an e-mailed statement. ICAP's monthly average is 0.156 percent.
The central bank will acquire $4.25 billion to $5 billion of Treasuries maturing from May 2018 to February 2020. The purchases are the first in the Fed's new program to replace $400 billion of short-term debt in its portfolio with longer-term Treasuries in an effort to reduce borrowing costs further and counter rising risks of a recession.

Paroles de la chanson Susan MacLeod/Into The Groove :
And you can dance
For inspiration
Come on
I'm waiting
Get into the groove
Boy you've got to prove
Your love to me, yeah
Get up on your feet, yeah
Step to the beat
Boy what will it be
Music can be such a revelation
Dancing around you feel the sweet sensation
We might be lovers if the rhythm's right
I hope this feeling never ends tonight
Only when I'm dancing can I feel this free
At night I lock the doors, where no one else can see
I'm tired of dancing here all by myself
Tonight I wanna dance with someone else
Gonna get to know you in a special way
This doesn't happen to me every day
Don't try to hide it love wears no disguise
I see the fire burning in your eyes
Live out your fantasy here with me
Just let the music set you free
Touch my body, and move in time
Now I now you're mine
You've got to
(Refrain lyrics)
Now I know you're mine, now I know you're mine
Now I know you're mine, now I know you're mine
You've got to
(Refrain lyrics)
[Répéter and fade)

Jakarta: Asian golf legend and three-time Asian Tour number one Thongchai Jaidee of Thailand will compete in the inaugural US$750,000 Indonesian Masters next month, joining world number two Lee Westwood of England in the elite field at Royale Jakarta Golf Club.
Organisers announced today that PNTS, one of Indonesia's fastest growing off shore bulk cargo handling companies, Garuda Indonesia, the national flag carrier, and Mercedes-Benz have also signed up as sponsors of Indonesia's newest Asian Tour tournament from April 21 to 24, 2011.
India's rising star Gaganjeet Bhullar, a two-time Asian Tour champion and no stranger to success in Indonesia, and Thai standout Chapchai Nirat, a three-time winner, will also feature in the Indonesian Masters which will be beamed live throughout four rounds to over 40 countries and 440 million homes worldwide.
After writing several pages in Asian golf history with his exploits, Thongchai is determined to become the inaugural champion of the Indonesian Masters.
"I am looking forward to the Indonesian Masters next month, especially when it will be played at Royale Jakarta. I have heard it is a fantastic golf course and I believe it will contribute to a very successful week of golf," said Thongchai.
"The Indonesian Masters will be very exciting as it has attracted a truly world class player in Lee Westwood along with many other top players from the Asian Tour such as Gaganjeet Bhullar and Chapchai Nirat. I have played alongside Lee on many occasions and I'm looking forward to teeing it up with him again. I have no doubt the Indonesian Masters will be a premier tournament on the Asian Tour," said Thongchai.
The 41-year-old Thai is presently the most successful golfer in Asia following an unprecedented three Order of Merit triumphs in 2001, 2004 and 2009. He also holds the most number of victories on the Asian Tour with 13 titles and is the leader of the career earnings ranking with over US$4 million in winnings since breaking into the scene in 1999.
In 12 seasons on the Asian Tour, the former paratrooper has finished outside the top-10 of the merit list only twice to cement his reputation as one of the most consistent performers on the region's elite circuit.
"I owe my success very much to the Asian Tour and it is tremendous to see new tournaments like the Indonesian Masters coming up on our Schedule. I will always support the Asian Tour," said Thongchai.
Bhullar, 22, broke through in a big way at the 2009 Indonesian President Invitational and he will be determined to secure another victory in the country when he tees up at the Indonesian Masters. Last year, he won the Asian Tour International in Thailand while earlier this season, he wrote a small slice of history by becoming the first Indian to win a European Challenge Tour tournament.
The 28-year-old Chapchai will be looking to add the Indonesian Masters to his list of victories which include the TCL Classic in China, Vietnam Masters and SAIL Open in India where he set a world scoring record for 72 holes
Kyi Hla Han, Executive Chairman, Asian Tour, welcomed PNTS, Garuda Indonesia and Mercedes-Benz on board the Indonesian Masters sponsorship platform.
"On behalf of our talented players, I would like to extend our fullest appreciation to PNTS, Garuda Indonesia and Mercedes-Benz for their strong support towards the Indonesian Masters. They are three of the biggest companies in Indonesia and we are delighted to have them on board with us," said Han.

Closet Design Bal Harbour
Bal Harbour Closet Design: A Key To Healthy Relationships
There are a few important things that you should know about good Bal Harbour closet design and what it might mean for the sanctity of your relationship. Here are just a few ways that it can help:
Taking Stock
If you do decide to renovate your Bal Harbour closet design the first thing you are going to want to do is take inventory on the items that are inside your shared closet. After spending years sharing a closet with another person, articles of clothing and shoes often get lost in the abyss of muddled space. Taking stock allows us to see everything we have and perhaps use this as an opportunity to get rid of unused items and get an idea for how much space each of us needs.
Organize and Divide
Once this is over, the fight about how many pair of shoes she actually has is over. Done and done. Now that we know what we have, it is time to figure out what we need. With Bal Harbour closet design each partner can choose the specific closet organizers that best suit their needs. Whether that is more shelves, hooks, or drawers, you decide. This creates a division of space that is positive for keeping track of your own things and not worrying about whose space is encroaching on whose.
Bal Harbour Closet Design For You And Your Partner
Overall, choosing good Bal Harbour closet design is one less problem you have to worry about. It will improve not just your relationship but the quality and value of your home. So call today and schedule your free, in-home design consultation!

Comments about Live Wire Lo-Z Microphone Cable:
First off, this cable has the best sound from any of the cables I've used. It has been used with my Shure PG58 mic and works great for vocals (both the mic and the cord), but I've also used it for recording my guitar. It's thick, my stand has one of those cable holders, and it's too thick to fit. My only complaint is it's so expensive. If you've got the cash, get it.

I will always remember the first 'religious' discussion with my son. He was 4 and asked what happened when you die... I explained that people believe so many different things, we covered quite a few and also discussed what mom and dad think. We do that with most things.
He's 16 now and pretty much following in his parents footsteps with his beliefs but we always tell him whatever he decides on the matter it's his choice and we will respect him for it.
As to Christopher Hitchens... I've not read much of his stuff but the times I've heard him in interviews etc. I think he comes off as a pompous ass.
We've also celebrated Christmas and Easter--non-religiously. My folks who were the greatest grandparents to my kids did go to church, so the kids went with them some mornings to let H and me sleep in! Didn't seem to influence them one way or the other. And the holiday celebrations were just that--gifts and giving and traditions and singing and so on--and it was fun!
Jimi40--sorry you're having so much trouble finding a MC. I would think that unless they billed themselves as "christian therapists" so you'd know what to expect, they would follow your lead as to whether church and god etc. need enter into the therapy at all. Keep trying--a good MC is worth his/her weight in gold.
Just kidding, he has his doubts, but his family is VERY religious and I doubt he would ever admit it to them or even himself at times.
Anyway, just wanted to say "hi" and let you guys know not everyone posts on this forum, but we're here.
Update November 2013: It only took seven years but I finally turned a corner. :)
Easter is just a celebration of Spring. The bunny comes. We dye and hunt eggs. Eat a bunch o' candy!
BOTH holidays originated as PAGAN celebrations of the changing seasons so I have no issue with dropping all the religious ho-ha and having some fun.
As for finding a secular therapist, try seeing if you can find a UU Church, an Humanist group, Atheist group or similar and see if they can recommend someone. Other than that, try to find someone who does not tout being a Christian counselor, steer clear of anyone working out of a church (kind of a no-brainer there LOL) You certainly don't want to be seeking counseling from a member of any clergy. Be open and honest about your beliefs and see if you can find someone who is open-minded. My IC (he's also our MC) is Jewish. Love him! My husband's IC (who specializes in SA) is very religious but also very, very open minded. Once my FWH let him know that he is an atheist his counselor has been wonderful in modifying his counseling to avoid Christian dogma. His experience has been very positive.
I'm pretty sure I belong here too.
I grew up having the Catholic Church shoved down my throat. We went to mass every Sunday, every Holy Day, every Holiday, you name it. My parents are still very involved in the church and I know it's a big disappointment to them that I don't go anymore. I just don't "buy it".
I did get married in the Catholic Church, however, and all three of my children were Baptized in the Catholic Church.
This may be a stupid question but can someone explain to me the difference between atheist and agnostic?
*Somewhere, far away from here, I saw stars. Stars that I could reach.*
According the the dictionary:
Agnostic - A person who claims that they cannot have true knowledge about the existence of God (but does not deny that God might exist; or one who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God.
Atheist - One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods.
Pretty sure an Agnostic is an Atheist married to a Southern Baptist.
Life gives us us sorrow so we can have something to measure happiness with.
And as far as the Christmas/Easter question, we celebrate both but not in any religious way.
There are ethical guidelines that most therapist/counselors are suppose to bound by. And that includes religious tolerance with includes both faiths dramatically different than the therapist's which includes agnostic/atheist beliefs.
I am at my worst when someone wants religious counseling or counseling based on scripture because that is a specialty field with distinct training just as someone with certification in hospice counseling, grief counseling, substance abuse etc.
I do allow for a clients religion as part of assessing strengths and support systems and if they have a strong belief in God I do encourage them to follow those beliefs.
Probably my most challenging case that involves religion is a deeply religious client that knows she/he has a same sex orientation.
She/he struggles to find with her/his sexuality not because he/she is unsure if they are gay/lesbian but because he/she cannot find a scripture based religion that accepts his/her orientation. And he/she has tried numerous religions finding either they were intolerant of gay/lesbian lifestyle or that there interpretation of scripture was has been distorted to support same sex relations.
So we struggle for him/her to make sense of their issues.
Even though I'm a total non-believer, I can't imagine the conflict the believer has in all the questions of sexuality. I guess I'm lucky that I don't have that to deal with too!
Plus I kind of agree with Bill Maher that atheists really need to start coming out of the closet. It's easy for me to do this because I will suffer no social sanctions for doing so. I don't have any family that would penalize me for being an atheist, just don't really have people in my life who would do so, I'm not involved in a career field in which it matters, etc. So, I just go ahead and do it. I find that if you announce it sunnily, with the assumption that no one would even bother to act dismayed, nobody bothers to act dismayed. =)

By the way, a counselor should not be pushing any religious beliefs on a couple, especially if you make it clear you don't feel the same way.
I want support, whether it's religious or non-religious. I blame nobody but my WH for the mess I'm in, not trying to fit it into some grand scheme or test by the almighty. Whatever.
Glad to know there are others here who feel similar.

Regarding the whole forgiveness thing, and the religious aspects of forgiveness...
I'm not sure about forgiveness. Some days I think I've already forgiven him in my heart. Some days I think I'll get there eventually. I definitely do not feel any pressure to forgive him in order to "be a good person." Maybe forgiveness is a little too tied up in religion.
I was physically abused by my mother when I was young. Have I forgiven her? No, not really, because she never asked for my forgiveness and never apologized. Yet, I have a pretty good relationship with her today. I looked at my life and decided it was worth some effort on my part to see if we could have a better relationship. And we do. If the relationship had remained bad, I would have cut her out of my life. So I would say that I have made my peace with what I suffered at her hands many years ago.
On the other hand, my FWH is remorseful and has apologized repeatedly. So I think forgiveness is possible in this case. Even if I never feel in my heart that I forgive him for his ONS's, I know that I could get to the point where I'm at peace with what happened. It will take time. But I've been deeply hurt by most of the people in my life who said they loved me. At least FWH acknowledges the pain he's caused me and is doing what he can to make it right.
FWIW, I think we atheists/agnostics have it easier in some ways than those who are religious. It's painful, but we don't look for cosmic meaning where there is none. We don't engage in magical thinking, and I think in the long run we're better off for it. Of course, we don't get the pat cliches and solace that "god" provides. But we also know, when we get through the shit, that we got through it on our own strength, not through "grace."
Atheism is just as much a "belief" as Christianity.
I know this isn't a thread to *discuss* atheism, but...really, it's problematic for atheists or agnostics to agree with that talking point. People who were once *not* atheist often clutch and ululate as *if* their current atheism is a belief, but it's the remnants of their trained religiosity peeking out, not atheism.
Really, the very fact that there's a word for the absence of belief is the problem. I mean, we don't have a word for people born without, say, feathers, or the ability to fly. Well, actually we do: humans. It's the very fact that there's an -ism associated with something that needs no -ism that creates this confusion.
[This message edited by ladyvorkosigan at 2:32 PM, June 9th (Saturday)]
I love the way you put this and totally agree. But it's hard either way I guess, whether one believes or not.
Forgiveness--I read someone saying once that forgiveness is overrated! I think personally my H and I will be lucky if I get to the point where I really accept, intellectually and emotionally, the whole debacle of the A and OC--and learn to live with the facts in a somewhat peaceful manner. Getting there with a H who is really trying, but not there yet. And it's been almost 2 years. Plus I have a hard time with the injustice of it all--and think that some things can't be forgiven totally, just accepted. I hope that's enough.
Natural disasters aside, bad things happen because people did bad things. Good things happen because people do good things.
As Sartre said, "Hell is other people"; but as Joss Whedon said, "So is Heaven."
Metaphorically speaking, of course, since both are atheists. =)

Old Navy Price Adjustment Policy = BIG Savings!
This Hip2Save.com Deal was hand-posted on Wednesday, July 14th, 2010 at 12:50 pm.
Did you know Old Navy has a price adjustment policy?! I had absolutely NO idea that this policy existed until several days ago when I received this email from reader, Chris…
I just had to share this with someone and this seems like the perfect place. I took my kids to Old Navy on June 28th when they were having the 30% off everything in the store sale. I thought I had saved a bunch of money on that day even though I struck out in their clearance section. I went back this Friday to return an item and noticed that a lot of the items that I had bought were now on sale. I asked them what their price adjustment policy was on items that were marked down on sale and they said if it was a sale item and it was within 2 weeks of purchasing them they could give me an adjustment. If it was on clearance though I would have to bring the item back, have them return it and then I'd have to re-buy at the clearance price. I had them scan my receipt to see if I could save a few more cents on the items that were now listed as sale items (i.e. swimsuits for $5 which I paid full price last week but got 30% off) and to my surprise, I got a $40 credit back on my card!! I took a chance, but it was definitely worth asking!
How awesome is that?! After reading this email, I immediately emailed Old Navy for more information about this policy so here are all the details that I received in that email…
We're happy to offer a one-time price adjustment when the original receipt is presented in any Old Navy store within 14 days of the date of purchase if the item has been reduced in price, this includes clearance items. Unfortunately, we don't make exceptions outside of the 14 day time frame to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all our customers. Please note; items purchased using a discount coupon are NOT eligible for a price adjustment.
So that got me wondering whether this same price adjustment policy can be applied to online purchases. After some searching, I discovered that Old Navy also has an online price adjustment policy!! Here is that policy taken directly from OldNavy.com…
* We offer a one-time price adjustment if an item is marked down within fourteen (14) days of the date on your purchase. To obtain a price adjustment on an online purchase, you must call 1-800-OLD-NAVY, or send us an email message at firstname.lastname@example.com within the fourteen (14) day window. Include your order number in your email message. If you are within the deadline, we'll refund you the difference in your original form of payment.
* Items purchased with a promotional discount are not eligible for price adjustments. See promotion for details. However, items purchased with rewards certificates or free shipping promotions are eligible for price adjustments.
* A price adjustment for an online purchase will not be made in a Gap, Old Navy or Banana Republic store.
* We will not make price adjustments on online purchases for items featured in clearance pricing events in Gap, Old Navy or Banana Republic stores.
Did you know about this policy? Have you ever used the policy and received a credit back?

Victoria's Secret has this same 14 day price adjustment policy. When they have their semi-annual sale, I always buy on the first day (best selection) and by the last Friday of their sale (sale lasts 2 weeks) they have marked all of their bras down to $15.99, so I get a price adjustment. I get all of the styles I want for the cheapest price.
I was in Pigeon Forge at the Old Navy outlet last Thursday and purchased several items for my daughter. Then I checked my email and saw that Stuff and Save started the next day! So I took everything back (minus the pjs she had worn the first night) and they retuned it all (reg credit card), then put it all on my Gap card with the 20% discount. I saved almost $10!
Yes. I knew about this policy. A lot of stores have this policy. I know for sure Gymboree, Gap, and Macys.
idk if anyone knows this or not but in FLORIDA it is a STATE law that ALL stores must give a price adjustment within fourteen days if the items goes on sale. Old navy isn't the only store to offer this. Many stores do this. I know in Florida all store by law have to abide by this policy!
I was just at old Navy in Lexington, Ky and my surprise 30% off did not come off my total. I spent $48.76 before my 30% surprise discount. My receipt doesn't show that my 30% was taken off. Transaction #4214

Water: The Epic Struggle for Wealth, Power, and Civilizationby Steven Solomon
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Far more than oil, the control of water wealth throughout history has been pivotal to the rise and fall of great powers, the achievements of civilization, the transformations of society's vital habitats, and the quality of ordinary daily lives. Today, freshwater scarcity is one of the twenty-first century's decisive, looming challenges, driving new political, economic, and environmental realities across the globe.
In Water, Steven Solomon offers the first-ever narrative portrait of the power struggles, personalities, and breakthroughs that have shaped humanity from antiquity's earliest civilizations through the steam-powered Industrial Revolution and America's century. Meticulously researched and masterfully written, Water is a groundbreaking account of man's most critical resource in shaping human destinies, from ancient times to our dawning age of water scarcity.
"Steven Solomon has written a riveting historical manifesto on behalf of Water Power. His sweeping narrative, covering centuries, is awe-inspiring. I learned a tremendous amount of usable knowledge from this fine work." Douglas Brinkley, author of The Wilderness Warrior
"Seeking to inspire us to place a higher value on water and establish wiser approaches to its use, Solomon has created a brilliantly discursive and compelling epic of humankind's most vital resource." Booklist (starred review)
"This volume will give you the background to understand the forces that will drive much of 21st century history." Bill McKibben
"Solomon's soaring account of our attempt to manage earth's total environment over millennia never neglects the individuals, inventions, and initiatives pivotal to that effort. Water is the most alarming and compelling call to action I've read since Rachel Carson's Silent Spring." Linda Lear, author of Rachel Carson
"Steve Solomon also defines the critical challenges of water — and the need for new thinking — for nations and peoples around the world, both for today and in the future." Daniel Yergin, author of The Prize: the Epic Quest for Oil, Money, and Power
"A tour de force....Thoughtful....Well-written....Solomon shows that when the incentives are right — where governments and markets are allowed to focus on the real costs of and opportunities for using water resources — much better management of water systems follows." The National Interest
"Persuasive....Unique....Solomon surveys the current state of the world's water resources by region, making a compelling case that the U.S. and other leading democracies have untapped strategic advantages that will only become more significant as water becomes scarcer." Publishers Weekly
"A fascinating and provocative work of history that shines new light on what is probably the biggest environmental and political challenge of our time. Steven Solomon's brilliant book reveals how today's planetary crisis of freshwater scarcity is recasting the world order and the societies in which we live." Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
"A sweeping history....Solomon identifies plenty of obstacles to an equitable future, both institutional and geophysical, but remains optimistic that science-born solutions are in the offing....A useful piece for readers interested in natural resources and the geopolitics attendant to them." Kirkus Reviews
In Water, esteemed journalist Steven Solomon describes a terrifying — and all too real — world in which access to fresh water has replaced oil as the primary cause of global conflicts that increasingly emanate from drought-ridden, overpopulated areas of the world. Meticulously researched and undeniably prescient, Water is a stunningly clear-eyed action statement on what Robert F Kennedy, Jr. calls "the biggest environmental and political challenge of our time."
About the Author
Steven Solomon is a journalist who has written for The New York Times, BusinessWeek, The Economist, Forbes, and Esquire, and has commented on NPR's Marketplace. He is also the author of The Confidence Game. Solomon lives in Washington, D.C.

To celebrate the tercentenary of her birth, Handel House Museum presents an exhibition on the life and work of Susannah Cibber.
From a promising start as a singer in a small opera company, Cibber's career and social standing were fatally blighted by the scandalous trial in which her husband Theophilus accused her of adultery. Unable to appear on the London stage, she fled to Dublin. It was here that she was chosen by Handel to sing in the first performance of Messiah in 1742, giving a moving performance of the aria 'He was despiséd'.
From her performance in the London premiere of Messiah a year later her career blossomed once again. She became one of the most significant actresses of the 18th century, and for many years was David Garrick's leading lady.
The exhibition will tell Susannah's fascinating, dramatic and moving life story, through exhibits, contemporary texts, music and a programme of related events.
Listen below talks which were researched and delivered by Handel House staff and volunteers.

BDD with JavaScript
Test Driven Development (TDD) has become a cornerstone of modern software craftsmanship. Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) takes it to the next level; it provides easier to use and a more readable syntax as well as many other improvements. If you haven't used Test Driven Development before, start with BDD, you will reap the benefits much faster.

Tuesday, June 20, 2006
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
ATLANTA - Civil rights and good-government advocates asked the State Election Board on Monday to delay enforcement of Georgia's voter ID law until after next month's primaries.Those critics of the law requiring voters to show a photo ID at the polls spoke out even as the secretary of state's office reported that nearly 700,000 Georgians don't have a valid driver's license or state-issued ID, the most commonly forms of identification likely to be used to comply with the new law. "There is no practical way that this ... system can manage this huge group of voters," said board member David Worley, a former state Democratic chairman who represents the party on the board. "There is a huge train wreck that's going to happen this July and November." The Republican-controlled General Assembly first adopted a photo ID requirement for Georgia voters last year, over objections from Democrats that the legislation was intended as a barrier to elderly and black voters, two groups that tend to support Democratic candidates. But the law was overturned by a federal judge who cited the costs of the IDs and the difficulty of getting them as impediments to the right to vote. The Legislature came back this year and passed a new version of the bill making the IDs free and requiring all 159 Georgia counties to make them available at local elections offices. The elections board voted 3-1 on Monday, with Worley dissenting, to adopt the rules that will govern the new law, including a lengthy list of documents that voters needing photo IDs can present to obtain one. But Worley and others argued it would be unfair for the state to enforce the photo ID requirement during the July 18 primaries because there isn't enough time to prepare the voters. Kathy Rogers, director of the secretary of state's Elections Division, said a mailing the agency is developing with information on the new law won't be ready in time for the primaries. She said that even if the material could be made available, she's reluctant to send it to voters who may not be able to obtain a voter ID in their home counties before July 18. Another hurdle is that the U.S. Justice Department hasn't approved the new law, and there's no clear timetable for when the federal agency will act. Under the 1965 Voting Rights Act, Georgia and other states with a history of discriminating against minority voters must submit changes in their election laws to the federal government. Beyond concerns over whether the state is ready to enforce the new law, opponents on Monday repeated the arguments against the photo ID that were heard during the past two legislative sessions. Joe Beasley, Southern regional director for the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, compared the requirement to the poll tax and grandfather clause, laws that kept Southern blacks from voting during the Jim Crow era. But Randy Evans, who represents the Georgia Republican Party on the elections board, said GOP legislative leaders made sure the law allows voters who don't have valid photo IDs to get them as easily as possible.

Building Your Great Idea is the Easy Part!
Most folks think that building a product is the hard part..."if we can just build the [web site, widget or product] then we are going to be Golden!" Building it is the easy part. How will you connect the product with enough customers in a short enough time span to survive? That is the when the work starts.
To have a business you have to have a great product ("Everybody is going to LOVE this widget!") that addresses a pain point, that is different enough that the public will respond, and priced in a way that the public will buy.
All of these things have to be done for you to have a business, but these are the EASY parts.
Your business really starts when you have got all of these things done, and then you are ready to connect the product with an indifferent public. Consider having all of these things done as a "Ticket to the Game." The fact of the matter is that people don't care about your idea.
People are busy.
The challenge for the entrepreneur is to make the customer care- to effectively communicate the value proposition and drive people through the transition from not knowing anything about your product, to understanding about you and your product -- and gladly paying for it.
Building your product is necessary, but keep that accomplishment in perspective - building a car without a plan to get gasoline won't get you anywhere. Build your idea and focus on answering the critical question of how you connect that idea with the enough people in a short enough period of time that you not just survive, but thrive.
