So I have acne-prone sensitive combo skin. I wash my face with cleanser (Black Soap or Dr. Bronner's) and my face dries up. So I use this as a facial spray and it seems to calm my dryness yet my face is never oily and it dries up blemishes to the point where they merely disappear. On the bottle it saids you can use it as a body splash; love it love it! It is hard to find a perfume with zero chemicals and is all natural, it just smells great . You can also use it as an all-natural deodorant, I tried it over Humphrey's Witch Hazel and no b.o!

The idea of using Rosewater in place of expensive LUSH toning waters was appealing to me, and since it's been around forever, I figured I couldn't go wrong.
Maybe it's just the brand of Rosewater I used (Heritage Store Products) but it made me break out pretty bad! I know it's this product because I am using the same face moisturizer and cleanser, but using a different toner, and my face is getting better.
When I first started using it, I found it very refreshing and enjoyed the scent - smells like real roses, not that fake rose scent. I use LUSH moisturizers, and they tend to go on better when the face is slightly damp. After using it for a week or so, I noticed clogged pores on my forehead (I never breakout here) and on my chin with cystic acne! It took me a few days to figure out it was the rosewater... but now I don't really know what to do with it, now that I have almost a full bottle.

This is one of the best toners I've ever tried. I just spray some on my face morning and night and wipe it off with a cotton round. It doesn't dry out my skin too much and makes it glow! Definitely a must have for people with large pores, oily skin, and acne.

I am sorry to give this product a negative review, since most other reviewers here were so happy with it!
After reading about its soothing and lightly-moisturizing properties, I was interested to try rosewater as a toner.
My preference would have been to get food-grade rosewater that is meant for cooking, but I couldn't find any at the supermarkets in my area, and the prices of that type of rosewater on Amazon were too high for what what it was.
Therefore, I ended up getting a small spray bottle of Heritage Rose Water at a health foods store for about $6 -- even though I am dubious about the idea of "Vor-Mag" water, and find the "recommended by Edgar Cayce" notation on the bottle to be off-putting (you can look him up on Wikipedia), which of course is the opposite of the company's intention.
+The small bottle is a nice size
+The sprayer works well
+The price isn't bad
+The scent is light and pleasant, not too heavy or cloying (as I had feared it might be) - and I'm not a big rose-fragrance person. The scent disappears after about 15 minutes.
+The product is simple, just 2 ingredients, and seems pretty natural and pure
+The spray felt refreshing
+The product did seem to be a little moisturizing in a very light way, which was just what I wanted
+it didn't break me out, in the short time that I used it
-I agree with a previous reviewer that the bright pink bottle with so much writing on it is a little unattractive, but that's not a big issue for me
-As I mentioned above, the whole "vor-mag" and "Cayce" thing isn't my cup of tea
-The third day I used it, about the fifth time in total that I had ever used it on my face (I only put it on when my skin was bare and clean), after 30 minutes I began to have a reaction to it. My face felt really hot. After a further 15 minutes of not knowing what was going on (thinking I was coming down with the flu or something), I realized that it might be the rosewater toner and I washed the product off, then put cool-water compresses on my burning skin afterwards. It was a strange feeling - like having a high fever without being internally ill. This lasted for an additional half an hour. I still wasn't sure it was due to the product, because my skin didn't look as red as I would have expected it to.
To make sure that the burning sensation had been due to the product and not a bizarre passing fever, several hours later, after my skin was completely back to normal, I sprayed a little of the product on one area of one cheek, and left it to dry. After 15 minutes, that one area started to feel hot, so I washed it off. I won't use the rosewater anymore.
I do have sensitivities to a number of natural products, foods, pollens, animals' dander, etc., so it would not surprise me if I were also sensitive to rose oil.
By the way, if you are interested in seeing more opinions about the Heritage brand of Rosewater, it has its own MUA listing: "Fragrances - Unlisted Brand - Rosewater by Heritage Products".

OMG, I thought that Boots Rosewater Toner was the business but I decided to spend a few more pounds and try pure Rosewater and it is absolutely gorgeous. I find the scent addictive and a major part of the whole experience of using it but the fact that rosewater is so refreshing, cleansing and moisturising - meaning I can occasionally go without my regular moisturiser - makes it an essential item for me. I decant it into two separate pump bottles and use one for toning and as a facial mist; to the other I add glycerin and set my make-up with it. I have tried it with glycerin and witch hazel too (as a toner) and that worked out well but that was only for when my skin was really oily. I am easily bored by products but Rosewater is now a staple in my bathroom. Oh, and even though my skin is now in quite poor shape I can still use Rosewater without any problem. What a godsend!

I usually use a couple of drops of rosewater when doing my bi-weekly Aztec cleansing mask. It keeps my face, which is oily and sensitive, from becoming too red after I rinse the mask off and helps a bit when the smell of the vinegar. It also balances the oiliness I get in the summer. Rosewater alone makes an excellent toning mist when my skin is a bit irritated or congested. It doesn't break me out or leave any residue. I sometimes use it my hair or skin as a light fragrance though it is only temporary. I never used it in my cooking, but will have to try that one day.

A use for rosewater that hasn't been mentioned here: eye drops. There is a v good quality brand my mom uncle and other ppl in my fam use based on doctor's recommendation- i think arq e gulab by marhaba? Anyway i use it all the time- it stings for a second but it cools and refreshes my eyes v well esp in hotter countries. Also v good as toner. I find it better than the much pricier facial mists and toners that I have tried
. Helps moisturizer but on its own too it really soothes and it seems to help retain moisture. i agree with the reviewer who says using this, she woke up to happy glowing skin- same case with me. I wasn't expecting anything either.. As soon as I get a spray bottle I plan to put a lot of it into it as a body mist for summer

Rosewater is seriously one of the best kept beauty products IT IS AMAZING and has done wonders for my complexion. It is so much brighter and glowing and youthful looking. I use this mostly as a toner and as a refreshing mist on hot and sweaty days. I have also used it as a makeup setting spray to tone down any cakey powdery mess. I love how natural this product is and can seriously notice how much better my skin looks. It is HG status and a staple in my beauty regime :) I get this off iherb for super cheap and will definitely repurchase.

Rosewater is a fantastic toner for any skin type. When I was on BCP I had very dry skin, and using rosewater as a toner helped control my skins dryness and I never again experienced flaking bits around my nose, etc, when wearing makeup. Your skin will feel smooth, supple and velvety, it's amazing! Once I stopped taking BCP my skin became oily and very prone to hormonal/cystic acne. I continue to use rosewater everyday and it helps calm my skin after using harsh acne-fighting products. Some days I take a break from acne-fighting products and just cleanse, spray on some rosewater and let my skin breathe. It helps reduce redness and dryness from acne products. This stuff is miraculous and will work for ANY skin type. Get some. Now!

There Are No Rights Without Duties (1942-1944)
With the New Deal, organized labor grew in numbers and power. Unions came to many industries which had never been unionized before. Under the slogan of industrial unionism, in place of craft unionism, the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) came to the forefront. The CIO at first concentrated on the mass production industries. Its unionization campaign had been successful in the steel industry and in the automobile industry and moderately effective in textiles and the utility fields. Gradually, the CIO extended its activities into other industrial areas. Before long it became embroiled in various jurisdictional disputes with the long-established AFL unions.
One of the new CIO unions was the United Construction Workers Organizing Committee (UCWOC). This union had no hesitation in invading the traditional jurisdiction of the AFL unions in the building trades. The UCWOC was bent on organizing whatever plant came its way. Raiding one another's jurisdiction became a common occurrence between the unions belonging to the competing parent organizations -- the AFL and the CIO. Occasionally both such unions were confronted with the opposition of "company unions," which usually came into being at the behest or with the blessing of the company employer. These company unions usually were formed for the purpose of combating the activities of "outside" unions. As a rule company unions were limited to the plant or plants of a single

Wholesale Orange - Public Safety High-Visibility Rescue Vest (Lightweight Mesh)
Wholesale Safety Reflective Uniform Jackets
Safety reflective rain parkas are bright colored rain vests that work great in the outdoors and under the right condition they can be noticeable from very far distances. A rain parka is a garment covering the upper body and usually the lower body aswell. Rain gear are generally worn over a shirt or sweater but can be worn on the bare skin for keeping cool in hotter weather. Our high visibility rain parkas are long sleeve. Two of the more popular colors for high visibility vests are orange and safety green. Safety green is a neon green color known for its high visibility. Orange colored parkas are especially great for hunters, blaze orange makes the hunter obvious to humans but relies on the fact that most large game animals, such as deer, are dichromats, and perceive the orange as a dull color. We offer only high quality rain parkas, most first time vest buyers buy a cheap rain parka thinking that it is the same thing as a more expensive version. This is not true; in fact, a good quality vest with proper care will last for years and years. Cheap parkas will break down easily, and the thread will start unraveling much sooner than a quality vests. Cheap parkas are usually not as comfortable, and the pockets are not in good places or the right size for all your equipment. High visibility rain gear is great for hunters, construction workers, bicyclist, public safety employees, law enforcement, etc. Safety reflective rain parkas are also known as: high - visibility orange safety rain jackets, green hunting clothes, lime rain gear, blue construction workers attire, safety deluxe rain pants, construction, high vis, high visibility, safety neon jackets, parkas, safety rain gear, rain suit, discount lightweight mens rain gear, golf rain suit, public safety rain coat, womens rain wear, industrial rainwear, reversible waterproof wear, etc.

Strategic Planning Gives a Whole New Dimension to PR
Gray, Robert, Marketing
Former advertising planners with key strategic skills are bringing vital knowledge to the consumer PR sector.
It's not so much a wave, more of a trickle. But an important trickle, nonetheless, and one that reveals a great deal about the way consumer PR is developing.
Strategically minded men and women, most of whom have honed their skills in advertising, are moving into the PR consultancy sector to take on a planning role. This is a role that hardly existed at all within the industry a couple of years ago and is indicative of PR's fight for a seat at the top table; its struggle to be regarded by clients as a discipline as reliable and effective as other forms of marketing communications.
Over the past year or so an impassioned debate has raged over the best ways to evaluate PR activity, one upshot of which has been to sharpen the focus on the planning of campaigns. At the end of April this year, trade bodies the Institute of Public Relations and the Public Relations Consultants Association, jointly launched the 'toolkit', a five-step standard for measuring the effectiveness of PR. While steps four and five deal with fine-tuning campaigns and quantifying the outcome, the first three steps cover planning issues: initial research to develop a brief, setting measurable PR objectives related to clients' business aims, and building measurement into the PR strategy and plan.
The growing emphasis on planning and evaluation has even persuaded some o f the smaller agencies that having a specialist planner on board is a sound investment. Lawson Dodd, a 16-strong consumer agency with clients including Pentax, Lavazza and Fyffes, has recruited Mediapolis associate media strategy director Peter Bennett as its first media director. Bennett, who joins at the start of August, worked on accounts such as Camelot while at the media agency.
Joanna Dodd, director of Lawson Dodd, says: "We're going the strategic route because we really think it will add value for clients. It's all to do with understanding target markets, lifestyles and habits. Out of that will come a clearer media strategy. It's about spending our time and therefore our clients' money more effectively to achieve better results."
Cohn & Wolfe media planner, Sarah Hill, who joined the agency at the start of 1999 from Young & Rubicam's The Media Edge, agrees. "What someone like myself can really add is an improvement to the focus," she says. "As media becomes more diverse, you can't get everywhere. You have to work out where and why and how."
Time to feel the breadth
PR planning generally starts with a far broader outlook than a media plan alone. The media targeting component follows on from the clear identification of the target audience and the development of key messages. In the case of the former, the process is far more complex today than a few years ago.
"Consumers are no longer acting their age or sex or class," says Manning Selvage & Lee (MS&L) planning director Claire Spencer. "Many of the traditional market segmentation tools that relied on demographics are now defunct. If you are going to plan and implement effective campaigns to target groups you have to get inside the head of the target audience."
Spencer describes the way to do this as isolating an "ah-ha factor" on which to base campaigns. In other words, working out what clusters of consumers have in common and then, taking into consideration that commonality, devising a means to get them interested in a brand.
Ketchum planning director Ruth Yearley holds similar views. "It's absolutely making sure that creativity is grounded in understanding brand need and consumer context. Knowledge and insight give you strategy." The agency's consumer division, Ketchum Life, which represents clients such as Procter & Gamble, Gillette and Mars, also has an in-house 'future trends unit' called Future Life. …

The Sauber F1 Team has announced a new promotional partner, leading Swiss luggage company PACK EASY, that will come into effect immediately.
PACK EASY will provide a custom-made luggage range for the Sauber squad in 2014, whilst this year their main focus will be through exclusive prize give-aways for guests and partners.
With the Formula 1 paddock travelling all over the world, PACK EASY's "durable and light" luggage ranges will provide Sauber with easy transportation that is "fashionable" and "unique."
Talking in a team statement, Team Principal Monisha Kaltenborn said on the announcement "We are pleased to welcome PACK EASY as our new partner, both our companies have the same values. The Swiss company has developed and adapted to market conditions over several decades, and we also expect innovation and performance from our employees."
She added "Our race team is traveling almost one-third of the whole calendar year, which is why functional and durable luggage is essential. PACK EASY not only provides a custom-made solution, but also individual design for our team."
Marion Klein, Chair of the Board of Management and Director of PACK EASY, said "One of the factors that continues to drive us is that we are never satisfied with what we have achieved so far, and we constantly strive to improve our products. Even if our innovations cannot be measured in tenths of a second, unlike the Sauber F1 Team, both teams have in common that every detail counts and the meaning of success is defined over and over again. As a Swiss firm specialising in luggage for people on the move, we are delighted to get to know the world of motorsport, and to support the people who travel the world for the sport with our products."
The brand do not have a strong history in motorsport, but they were first established in 1961 and have soon rose to be Switzerland's leading luggage brand.
Sauber currently lie eighth in the constructors standings with five points, all of which have been scored by leading driver Nico Hulkenberg. The team's rookie, Esteban Gutierrez, has yet to score.

As soon as someone raises his or her hand and makes it clear they don't want to be photographed, I stop right there.
If someone shoves a camera in my face, I think my reaction would be to grab the hard metal/plastic object and either shove it away from
my face, or pull it toward me.
There was a woman in Little Rock who was doing this sort of thing, and I followed her for a while, taking many photos of her at work.
She got offended and told me to shove off... in far ruder words. I grinned and kept snapping until she left in a huff.
I wouldn't go passing laws or using other types of force to tell folks how to behave, but don't be surprised if a rude photographer gets a little of
her own medicine from time to time.

Coping Style and Three Psychological Measures Associated with Environmentally Responsible Behavior
Iwata, Osamu, Social Behavior and Personality: an international journal
Questionnaires containing five multi-item 5-point scales were administered to 153 Japanese male and female undergraduates. Data of each of the scales were factor analyzed and, as a rule, items with a factor loading of .40 or over were selected. The scale for coping style produced three factors: avoidance, self-deceptive optimism and problem solving. Each of the other four scales produced one factor. Using the total score for each scale or factor, multiple regression analysis was applied to environmentally responsible behavior with six predictors entered simultaneously. Self-deceptive optimism and willingness to accept sacrifices for global environmental protection proved to be significant predictors of environmentally responsible behavior, but the four other predictors did not.
Environmentally responsible behavior has become a controversial topic in environmental psychology in recent years. Many studies have been conducted to investigate various predictors of recycling (De Young, 1993; Gamba & Oskamp, 1994; Guagnano, Stem, & Dietz, 1995; Hopper & Nielsen, 1991; Obregon-Salido, 1997; Thogersen, 1997; Vining & Ebreo, 1990; Werner et al., 1995; Werner & Makela, 1998). Energy conservation has also been an interesting topic for research in environmental psychology (Baum & Singer, 1981; Cook & Berrenberg, 1981; Stem, 1992). To encourage environmentally responsible behavior or enhance the efficacy of environmental education, we must understand what personal characteristics are associated with proenvironmental persons. It is essential to investigate the personal characteristics of those who are proenvironmental in everyday situations to develop an appropriate index of selfreported environmentally responsible behavior.
An increasing number of studies have been conducted to explore predictors of composite indices of self-reported environmentally responsible behavior. Steel (1996) found that a proenvironmental attitude is associated with proenvironmental behavior. Iwata (1998) reported a relatively high correlation between proenvironmental attitude and behavior. Schultz and Zelezny (1998) examined the relationship between values, awareness of the consequences of environmental damage, ascribed responsibility, and proenvironmental behavior. Dietz, Stem, and Guagnano (1998) discovered some significant relationships between behavioral self-reports and intentions on the one hand, and social psychological variables - including attitudes, beliefs and worldviews - on the other. Ebreo and Vining (1994) and Ebreo, Hershey, and Vining (1999) investigated the relationship between self-reported recycling and environmentally responsible consumerism, while regarding reduction of consumption. De Young (1985-6, 1996) found that everyday conservation behavior is correlated with intrinsic motivation and satisfaction. Iwata (1997) discovered significant correlations between 1) some proenvironmental attitudes and behavior and 2) voluntary simplicity in lifestyles. As for behavioral intentions, Hamid and Cheng (1995) reported that past environmentally responsible behavior can be a predictor for environmentally responsible behavioral intentions, and Stem, Dietz, Kalof, and Guagnano, (1995) reported that values and proenvironmental beliefs correlate with willingness to take proenvironmental action.
These studies indicate that a wide range of psychological variables as correlates of environmentally responsible behavior has been investigated. However, we suspected that yet other psychological variables may also prove to be correlates of environmentally responsible behavior. Coping strategy was assumed to be one of these and was chosen as the subject of the study presented here because proenvironmental behavior seems to represent coping strategy against environmental pollution and destruction and general coping strategy may be reflected in proenvironmental behavior in everyday situations. In addition, perceptual measures associated with global environmental protection could be correlates of such behavior too, and two of these were examined: expectations for solutions of global environmental problems and perceived efficacy of personal efforts toward environmental protection. …

19 Jun 2007
The uncertainty surrounding the future of Port Elizabeth's landmark Seaview Hotel has ended with its purchase by the Kat Leisure Group on June 12.
Sold on site by auction for R15, 4 million, the Seaview Hotel has now become part of the Kat Leisure Group's stable of blue chip developments. The group already owns the Simola Golf Estate in Knysna, the Osner and Kennaway Hotels in East London, and has also just acquired an operator's license for a casino in Queenstown.
According to auctioneer Duncan McLaggan of McLaggans Nationlink in Port Elizabeth, the prices fetched for both the hotel and certain adjoining properties were marginally more than he had expected, although they remained in line with real estate prices in the Seaview area.
The auction also moved three vacant stands adjacent to the hotel along with a fourth, developed property. These sites sold for an average price of just over R700 000 each.
Headed by Avril Kaschula, the Kat Leisure Group operates a number of highly reputable establishments throughout the Eastern Cape. Expectations are that development of the Seaview Hotel will be in line with the group's tried and tested modus operandi which successfully blends hotel accommodation with a residential component.
"We envisage establishing a boutique hotel combined with a private residence club," Kaschula says. Comparing it to the group's Simola Golf Estate in Knysna, he says the hotel will offer a range of exclusive upmarket facilities to which investors of the private residence club will have access. The club, which will comprise a number of townhouse units, will be managed and operated under the hotel's name. Investors who don't wish to live permanently in the development will be able to rent out their units through a rental pool.
Kaschula's group will spend the remainder of the year planning the project, as well as deciding on a name for it, with building expected to start in full swing early in 2008.
The price of vacant stands in Seaview and surrounding areas has increased dramatically over the last five years and land is in high demand, says local market specialist Bradley Olver, principal of Bradley Olver Properties. Evidence of the demand for local real estate is the breach of the R1m ceiling for vacant plots, which occurred last year. "In the first quarter of 2006, a plot measuring just under 900m2 sold for R850 000. Less than six months later, it was re-sold for R1, 1 million," he says.
At the auction, the vacant stands adjacent to the Seaview Hotel, which measure around 1 100sm each and are situated within 500m of the sea, sold for R575 000, R660 000 and R712 500 respectively. The developed site changed hands for R875 000 to an undisclosed buyer who also bought two of the vacant stands. This is creating speculation that another new development is in the pipeline.
The purchase of the Seaview Hotel by the Kat Leisure Group has been welcomed by residents and estate agents alike. Olver says property prices in the immediate vicinity of the hotel have been negatively influenced as a result of its severe neglect. The upgrading of the hotel will, however, turn the situation around, he believes. "Its renewed appeal is likely to precipitate a strong wave of growth in the village which has long been popular for its magnificent sea views, low crime rate and easy access to the centre of Port Elizabeth," he says.
Demand for property in Seaview also extends to sectional title units, according to Durr Estate's Letitia van Rooyen. She says there is enormous scope in this sector considering that there is just one residential complex with only five units in the village at the moment. The upgrading of the hotel not only has the potential to stimulate other development in the suburb but could breathe new life into its commercial sector, too. "Seaview needs more business ventures and an influx of visitors and investors will contribute towards the growth of this market."
Says McLaggan: "Seaview residents are satisfied that the hotel is now in the hands of a reputable hotelier and development company, whose commitment to the upgrading of the property will certainly add value to local real estate." - Ingrid Smit

Hospice and Palliative Care of the Eastern Shore and Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge invite the public to join them on Saturday, Oct. 6 at 8 a.m. for the fourth annual "Circle of Life" 3.2-mile run and 1-mile walk.
This activity is being conducted to promote the importance of living well by connecting people with nature during National Wildlife Refuge Week.
The inspiration for the walk/run came from a local island family.
"Our family is very appreciative of everyone who has supported the event in the past and we look forward to another great year," said Anna Lee.
"It means a lot to us because it recognizes the wonderful Hospice professionals and volunteers and promotes living well by connecting people to nature. We encourage people of all ages and wellness to join us on the morning of the 6th for a run or walk."
"The race is designed to highlight the circle of life while elevating the significance of living well through each stage as part of life's journey," said Bill LeCato, volunteer coordinator for Hospice. "While Hospice honors life's final journey, it shares the message this event promotes, which is making the most of life, every moment of every day."
"We encourage the public to come out and participate in the festivities during National Wildlife Refuge Week," stated Refuge Manager, Lou Hinds.
"This event kicks off the annual festivities and provides us with an opportunity to not only celebrate the National Wildlife Refuge System, but to reinforce the tangible and intangible benefits of being active in the great outdoors and maintaining a healthy connection with the land."
To learn more about the race and for registration information, visit the Circle of Life Hospice link at www.hpces.org or call 757-787-3310. Information on Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge and National Wildlife Refuge Week are available at: www.fws.gov/northeast/chinco or by calling 757-336-6122.
Hospice and Palliative Care of the Eastern Shore is a community not-for-profit agency that provides specialized care for people with limited life expectancies. Hospice professionals and volunteers are committed to helping patients live their last months, weeks, and days in as much comfort as possible, surrounded by the people and things they love.

Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
When I tutor a student in understanding proper study skills I utilize an array of different methods. I incorporate the SQ3R technique, which has the student survey, question, read, recite, and review the material, such as a chapter in a Biology book. Employing this method helps the student understand the chapter while reading and decreases the time and stress in attempting to understand the material immediately before a test. I also assist in organizational skills because it is correlated to better study habits.

Wells Fargo to settle SEC chargesComment on this story
Wells Fargo & Co will pay a penalty of more than $6.5 million to settle civil charges alleging it sold complex mortgage-backed instruments to municipalities and non-profits during the financial crisis without fully disclosing the risks.
The Securities and Exchange Commission said on Tuesday that the bank has agreed to settle without admitting or denying the charges, and the money will be placed into a fund to help harmed investors.
The SEC also charged a former Wells Fargo vice president, Shawn McMurtry, for his role in selling the products. He settled the charges without admitting or denying them. He will pay a $25,000 penalty and will also be suspended from the industry for six months. - Reuters

From the road: Lucky stars
Rivals.com recruiting staff
Recruiting Analyst
While he might not wow you with a cannon arm like Blaine Gabbert, or he might not ooze potential like E.J. Manuel, Luck proved he should be mentioned in the same conversation as those guys. He also proved that his No. 75 overall national ranking might be too low.
There were quite a few drops by his receivers that would have easily padded his stats even more, but where he truly excelled was patience and poise in the pocket. With three or four defenders in his face on almost every pass play, Luck always seemed to be able to a little something to find the extra second needed to complete the pass.
The Cardinal got a good one in Luck, and he's the type of signal caller that you can build a program around. Humble and confident, Luck's got it all.
Madisonville's Mustangs: Everybody is already well aware of 2009 athlete Chris Whaley of Madisonville, Texas. The highly touted blue-chip prospect is already starting to rack up offers from schools, including a recent offer from Texas A&M. But on Friday, it was his brother, Alonzo Whaley, that really caught my eye in a game against Navasota, Texas.
Whaley, who is 6-foot and 220 pounds, had around 15 tackles on defense and several big runs on the offensive side of the ball from his fullback position. He also opened up some major holes for his brother to run through, helping the Mustangs come away with a 28-13 victory.
Chris Whaley also had his moments. He's listed currently as a running back in the database, but maybe it's best to list him as an athlete. Whaley plays hard, and he's a very durable prospect that does show flashes of explosive ability. Even though he did have 133 yards and two touchdowns Friday night, he doesn't look like a natural at the running back spot. Once he got on track in the second half, he couldn't be stopped as he was deadly on toss sweeps and off tackle runs, but he didn't have that natural running ability that you look for in the great ones.
Two sleepers that emerged: There's something about proving it under the game lights, instead of camps and combines, and that's what we saw in Texas from a guy like Trent Hunter from Katy, Texas. The Kansas State commitment is listed as a two-star player, but he played much bigger than that in a victory over Klein. He returned the opening kickoff 101-yards and then also blocked a field goal attempt. His game is all about speed and it looks like the Wildcats got themselves a good one.
Madisonville, Texas, tight end J.D. Standley isn't a name known by many, but against Navasota he was all over the field making big plays on both sides of the ball. He's a legit 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds, and he did show great hands. Schools in the market for a versatile definitely need to give this small-school star a long look.
Omar Hunter is the perfect fit. Hunter plays low with excellent leverage, he's surprisingly athletic for a big man and he's quick off the ball. And most importantly, Hunter occupies blockers and demands a great deal of attention from the offensive line.
Terrelle Pryor needs a challenge: Pryor threw or ran the ball only five times in his team's 60-0 win over Brownsville, Pa., this past weekend. On the first play from scrimmage, Pryor ran around left tackle for a 53-yard touchdown and it was clear he could do that anytime he wanted. Pryor will face some good teams this year but he's ready for the challenge of college football.
Ohio State leader for Hale?: Much has been made about Monroeville (Pa.) Gateway teammates and cousins Shayne Hale and Cameron Saddler being a package deal to Michigan or another school but Gateway head coach Terry Smith thinks the two could end up at different schools. While Saddler likes many schools with Michigan, Virginia and West Virginia near the top, Smith thinks Hale will choose between Michigan and Ohio State in the end with the Buckeyes holding the slight edge. Hale and Saddler were scheduled to take an official visit to Michigan together on Sept. 14 but Hale might have to delay his trip to Ann Arbor.
Luck's night: If Andrew Luck had already proven himself as a drop back passer before last weekend, he certainly made a statement about the rest of his skills against Cy-Fair. In the second half of play in which every snap was huge, Luck was near perfect in leading his team to a win. He made plays with his feet all night that varied from subtle to impressive to spectacular. More importantly, Luck was extremely poised on every snap, making the right decisions and the right throws. He would buy himself time with his legs, and make clutch throws in and out of the pocket. It was clear from the sidelines that he's got the intangibles to place him among the best quarterbacks in the nation.
McGuffie's secret weapons: One disappointment from a weekend of Texas football was the ankle sprain that ended Sam McGuffie's game against Houston Stratford. In the second half though, the Cy-Fair running game was hardly ineffective. Fullback Wesley Cobb stepped in and picked right up gashing the Houston Stratford defense. Chris Lathrop led a very impressive offensive line that was consistently opening up big holes for the backs. While McGuffie provides that speed that can turn a four yard gain into a 40-yarder, it's clear that he has a powerful offensive line in front of him that can really open up some running lanes.
Junior league: A trip to Madisonville, Texas to check out two of the state's top juniors was mildly disappointing. Chris Whaley of Madisonville and Dexter Pratt of Navasota were good but not spectacular in a 28-13 Madisonville win. Both players played strictly running back for their 3A programs, though both, particularly Pratt, may be best suited for a different position at the next level.
Pratt was rumored to start on both sides of the ball, which would have set up some intriguing Whaley vs. Pratt battles. But the 6-2, 220-pound junior never saw a defensive snap. Though each player showed some flashes of his ability on the rain-soaked field, it is frustrating to think of some of the clashes that might have occurred between the 6-foot-3, 230-pound Whaley with the ball in his hands, and Pratt, with his size and quickness, tracking him down on the other side of the ball.
One to watch: Andre Harris of Hampton (Ga.) Lovejoy could be the best offensive line prospect in Georgia come 2009. He stands 6-foot-4 and weighs around 350 pounds, but moves like he weighs closer to 320 pounds. He can run block and pass block. He will be one of the top linemen recruited next year in the Peach State.
Wanted man: Pound for pound, there may not be a better football player in the metro Atlanta area than Jonathan Davis. He delivers big hits from the linebacker position, he makes big runs as a running back and he plays with a high level of intelligence on the football field. He is only 5 feet 9 and 205 pounds, but he has power, he has speed, he has skills and he will be a wanted man in 2009.
Showing potential: College Park (Ga.) Banneker Steven Fowlkes is a great pick up for Tennessee. He is thin, but very athletic and quick off the edge at defensive end. He needs to add weight and strength, but he has the frame to do that without losing his speed. He had two sacks and three tackles for a loss last week against Stephenson.
Complete player: Toby Jackson looked like a man amongst boys last Thursday when Griffin, Ga., opened up against Lithia Spring in the pouring rain. He was getting double- and triple-teamed throughout the night, but yet he was still finding his way to the offensive backfield. Jackson is very strong against the pass when rushing the QB and he is getting better at defending the run. He has transformed himself into a more complete defensive end.
Commitment coming?: Tucker, Ga., cornerback Neiko Lipscomb would like to make an early commitment, but he says he has to visit Michigan State, Alabama and Auburn first. Those three along with Georgia are his finalists, but the only school he has visited is UGA. He has family in Michigan, so the Spartans are a school to watch.
Irish in his blood: Tucker, Ga., safety Jamoris Slaughter said he is playing for Notre Dame this year and he hopes to represent them well. He thoroughly enjoyed his visit to South Bend last weekend and says he is one hundred percent committed to Notre Dame.

Other National/State Parks, Las Vegas
11 Reviews
11 Reviews
Under Bringhurt's direction with 29 other Mormon missionaries from Utah, began construction on June 14, 1855 to build a 150-foot square adobe fort, cultivate crops, build relationships with the Indians, and act as a way station for individuals traveling between California and Salt Lake City. With the initial success of the fort, Brigham Young had called a second group of missionaries, including women and children, to the mission. Work among the Native Americans included aiding them in farming, preaching the gospel and baptizing. Many were baptized and even some Native Americans were called to serve as missions among their own tribes to preach the gospel. The discovery of lead ore in the vicinity led to more and more settlers to move here. Yet, tension arose between leaders, terrible heat, and bad crops, the missionaries abandon the fort in 1857 to return to Utah.

Zion National Park is located in the southwestern corner of Utah, about three hours drive from Las Vegas and not far from the Arizona and Nevada state lines. Southern Utah is home to many beautiful national parks; all of them offer incredible scenery and all of them are worth the visit. But the most impressive of them all is Zion National Park which covers 230 square miles of dramatic landscape of sculptured canyons and soaring cliffs. There is so much to see in Zion that entire books can be written about it (and probably already have). Most people who come here visit Zion Canyon, a scenic gorge carved by the Virgin River. Red sandstone cliffs tower above the canyon floor, some of them more than 2,000 feet above the river. Kolob Canyon is another popular place to see, with several hiking trails. There are so many walks, hikes, and climbs in this park, ranging from easy to very strenuous. You might want to budget two days for this trip or else it would make for a very long day trip.
Ownership eventually landed in Octaviuse D. Gass in 1865. He had made some success with the ranch, but owed on back taxes sold he sold it to Archibald and Helen Stewart in 1881. In 1882 Archibald Stewart moved his wife Helen and their three children to the 960 acre ranch. What was unique about the ranch is the O.D. Gass had incorporated some of the remaining fort walls into the ranch house.
Sadly two year later after establishing a profitable ranch. Archibald was shot and killed. His now widow wife, retrieved his body and made a coffin for him from the families doors. She stayed strong and remained at the ranch keeping the family together and ranch profitable. In 1893 the first post office was established naming it "Las Vegas". She later sold the ranch to San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad in 1902. In 1929, the Bureau of Reclamation used the fort's ranch house as an office for the construction of the Hoover Dam.
The ranch house, the oldest building in Nevada, contains informative exhibits tracing the area's history, including a collection of photographs of the fort spanning from 1934 to 1992. The ranch house also contains a pump organ, spinning wheel and butter churner, all used by former inhabitants. Other artifacts found at the fort include an apple corer, cake griddle, rug beater and bullet mold. A replica of the first flag flown over Vegas is displayed along one wall, complete with 19 stars and 13 stripes.

Death Valley National Park is located in east-central California, right on the border with Nevada about 2.5 hours drive from Las Vegas. It is one of the most interesting places to visit in California. No matter what direction you come from you'll be struck when you enter the valley as the landscape will change from High Sierras to desert and the view of the valley like a vast emptiness with the mountains in the background is just breathtaking. Death Valley holds a number of records like being the lowest (282 feet below sea level) and hottest place in the Western Hemisphere. The valley has a lot to offer and is a great place for photography. Think about it... Canyons, craters, bright colors, sand dunes, good looking ruins, grand views. For those seeking solitude, it is the perfect place. Even if some attraction points might seem a bit crowded, if you leave those behind within a few minutes you'll find yourself completely alone. If you visit this place in the summer be advised that Death Valley is called as such for a reason. It is very hot and very dry. You'll
need to carry plenty of water.
The fort is an excellent for the whole family to see and experience. They built a replica of the fort, yet one of the structure is still standing and has some wonderful displays in it. The visitor center has some excellent displays of not just the history of the fort, but of the City of Las Vegas too.

if you are staying is las vegas more than a couple of days a side trip to zion canyon national park is a worth while thing to do. this massive canyon is one of the natural wonders of southern utah. the canyon is about a two hour drive northeast of las vegas. the drive to the canyon takes you through a desert and an interesting canyon pass near the nevada/arizona/utah boarder. to get to zion canyon take I-15 east 121 miles to st. george utah. just past st. george take US 9 east about 10 miles to the canyon.
Get out of the city and see the beautiful desert 'scape' The Joshua Tree is the largest of the yuccas and it is the symbol of the Mojave Desert.
Travel southwest (I-15) of Las Vegas right over the border to CA to enter the Mojave National Preserve.
Death Valley - The Death Valley National Monument is located about 140 miles north of Las Vegas via U.S. Highway 95 and Nevada State Route 374. Beatty, the turnoff point, is a good base for excursions into the valley, offering moderately priced food and lodging, as well as plenty of casino action.
Despite its arid, barren appearance, Death Valley is actually a fascinating and beautiful place to visit, filled with historic sites, unique natural areas and a remarkable array of recreational opportunities. Death Valley gets a bad rap because of its unpleasant name and the ominous sounding names of many of the landmarks found there.Perched on the northeastern edge of Death Valley National Monument is Scotty's Castle.
In March 2005 Death Valleyt wasn't an off the beaten path day trip. The second to the last weekened in March, there were 10,000 people a day were registering at the Furnace Creek Visitors Center (but they weren't checking people, and since some people don't follow the honor system, there were more). Anyway, about an hour and a half from Vegas is the Shoshone Entrance.
Every spring from late February to early April you can find some lovely flowers in Death Valley. In March 2005, the bloom was phenomenal and thousands trekked to the National Park.
Located just 3 hours N/NE of Las Vegas in Southern Utah. The drive is throught some beautiful countryside, and the destination is amazing. Zion National Park is a cool quiet oasis from the glam of Las Vegas. Springfield Ut is the small town just outside of the park where most of the accommodations are located. There is only one lodge inside the park. This makes a long day trip, try to spend at least 2 days here. You won't be disappointed. There are quite a few easy hikes that will take your breath away.

This is in response to Carole Brite's guest column, "Forty years, and all the better, after Roe v. Wade" (Feb. 7). Indeed, Roe v. Wade marked its 40th anniversary in January at a great cost to many lives — those of the unborn.
More than 50 million abortions have terminated the lives and potential of unborn children since the infamous decision to take away the rights of those in the womb. Are we better off for making abortion a constitutional right, as some have asserted? Certainly the unborn are not.
How can we be better off when 23 percent, nearly one-quarter, of all U.S. pregnancies end in abortion? How can we celebrate a decision that negatively influences our attitude toward life and death by making it legal to end the life of someone unwanted or inconvenient?
It is ludicrous to use legalized abortion as a benchmark for the progressive trends we see in the social and economic status of women. Women are choosing to remain single, marry later in life, postpone childbirth and have fewer children. All of these factors, including the availability of reliable day care and preschool centers, have enabled women to pursue higher education and obtain better jobs.
Legalized abortion isn't the panacea that proponents claimed it would be. The premise that abortion has freed women and promoted a better society is shown as baseless by soaring poverty and illegitimacy rates.
Our society reflects the identity of our abortion culture, seen in school shootings, violent video games, child pornography, sex trafficking and a rejection of traditional values of right and wrong.
All these injustices are based on the idea of a less-than-human view of life.
Sadly, women are still dying from "safe" abortion. A constitutional right to abortion hasn't improved women's lives; rather it has demeaned them, as studies show that post-abortive women have higher rates of drug and alcohol abuse, attempted suicide and hospitalization for depression.
For every abortion there is always one victim — the child; sometimes two victims — the father who has no legal means to prevent the abortion; and, most times, three victims — the mother who later regrets her decision to abort. I know people who have been victimized by abortion.
Women deserve better than abortion and do not have to believe that an unplanned pregnancy is a "mistake" or failure that will only serve as an imposition on one's life.
With all due respect and consideration for women who find they are facing an unplanned pregnancy, there are options available other than terminating the life of your child. Pregnancy resource centers provide free services, including confidential counseling, medical care, housing and job placement assistance. Locally, we have the resources of several excellent facilities, such as Beer LaHai Roi Women's Ministries, Lifetime Pregnancy Resource Center, Mini O'Beirne Crisis Nursery and Catholic Charities, all located in Springfield.
Page 2 of 2 - Life is a precious and unique gift that offers immeasurable potential and possibilities. It is the only alternative to the culture of death, victimization and regret that our post-Roe v. Wade world has to offer.
Tracy Knox of Springfield is a wife, mom and pro-life advocate.

Thanks to the media, I have lost my identity. By the way, where am I, in Vadodara, in Brahmanwada? Modi Grocery Store at Unjha? Why do my brothers Kamlesbhai and Asokbhai have to speak for me? That too rubbish most of the time? They say I am very happy that Naroo had accepted me as a wife after 46 years. Big deal! I am supposed to have given up eating rice, wearing chappals and even drinking tea as a penance for Naroo to become the prime minister. How did Kamles and Asok get such fancy ideas? Even while we were growing up, I knew my brothers lacked something in their little grey cells but not to this extent. And they conveniently packed me off to some pilgrimage centre so that the media could not get to me.
How odd it all sounds! I don't remember most of the bakwaas of Naroo, off to serve the nation leaving me to study and become a teacher. If that's so, didn't Naroo think education was needed to serve the country? But I quite enjoyed teaching and had Naroo been my student, I would have taught him to respect his elders and opponents and not abuse them, to shout less and not act like a fenkudas (bluffmaster) on issues like being a second Sardar!
Yes, I am sure I would have made something out of him. His sartorial style, for instance. What kind of adadhiyo (half shirt) does he wear now, tight over his 56-inch chest. Even the tailors in Unjah and Brahmanwada do a better job. And why doesn't the BJP appoint a voice coach for their PM candidate so that he stops screaming like a wounded rhino at rallies? Who gave the media the right to presume I became totally spiritual after my retirement, getting up at 4 am and praying till 11 am. Do you mean to say his female devotees, the Seetharamans, Iranis and Lekhis do the same? If they did, how would they get the energy and stamina to shout endlessly in the TV studios?
I am now the 'ideal Indian wife' because I do all this so that my 'husband' will be the next PM. And how could I do this to someone who abandoned me for 46 years back and finally agreed to the bitter fact just to fill up a blank space in the nomination form for the electoral office. What does it speak of any future PM or any Indian male?

Thank you to all those who have taken the trouble to read the article and share their thoughts. Out of the arguments made here, there are two that perhaps need answering. So here they go.
1. The first part of the article compares outcomes (relative percentages of population of the religions concerned) irrespective of the process that led to those outcomes - whether immigration, relatively faster population growth or conversions. This was for two reasons. One, to put the figure of 2.3 per cent in "numerical perspective", as the article itself explained. The second reason was that outcomes are ultimately what the crux of debate is about. The rest of the article in any case dealt with process - or conversions in this case, from both a contemporary and historical perspective.
2. Some commenters have tried to cast doubts on the reliability of Census 2001. Those who do this should bear in mind that Census 2001 was conducted by a BJP government. Considering the extreme importance that BJP gives to this issue, it would be reasonable to expect that IF it had perceived a problem with the methodology that was distorting the numbers, it would have fixed it. As the article mentioned, BJP or BJP-supported governments have been in power for 10 of the last 40 years, or about a quarter of the time, and the only reasonable conclusion one can arrive at is that any misreporting of numbers, real or perceived, would be marginal and hence, not of importance.
To all other arguments made, my answer is the following: Please read the article again, with particular focus on the quotations of Vivekananda and Monier Williams, and the history of the missionary efforts in Bengal and their outcome.
Jashoben is probably Modis oldest heartthrob.
Could this woman probably be Modis 'latest'?
A very good take on Modi's marriage by someone who will NEVER vote for Modi

Is Sukuk the Future of Global Finance?
Despite some headwinds, long-term prospects for the sukuk industry remain promising as regulators continue to build and strengthen their frameworks to minimize barriers in the market and deepen liquidity, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (S&P) said in a report published Tuesday, "After a mixed 2013, the global sukuk market looks promising in 2014."
Malaysia already benefits from a broad sukuk investor base and liquid debt market. So the increased interest from issuers, notably in the Middle East and Asia, in tapping the Malaysian ringgit and dollar market should in our view continue over the next few years as Malaysia cements its leading position in the industry.
"After a slowdown in 2013, with sukuk volumes declining by 13 percent, we anticipate that the sukuk industry will expand again in 2014, partly driven by corporate and infrastructure issuers in the Gulf," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Samira Mensah.
"What's more, total issuance will exceed $100 billion for the third year in a row if yields remain attractive for issuers. And, after weakening in 2013, we believe issuance could pick up again in Malaysia in 2014 as its investment program resumes," Mensah added.
Now that Malaysia is adopting private sector investment, we believe non-sovereign issuance could accelerate in 2014-2015, continuing the trend witnessed in 2013 at a global level.
The overview to the report also notes: We anticipate double-digit growth in issuance by Gulf corporate and infrastructure entities, due in part to large infrastructure financing needs.
Increasing private issuance could signal a change in the sukuk market characteristics.
Sovereign sukuk could be slowly emerging as an alternative to fund growth in African countries.
We believe a regulatory push is necessary to strengthen frameworks, lower barriers to entry, and deepen liquidity in the sukuk markets.
