Harley Davidson's fastest growing market? Women
Irma Stalder (L) checks out a Harley Davidson motorcycle at the Peterson's Harley-Davidson of Miami dealership in Miami, Florida.
Harley-Davidson is branching out.
The iconic motorcycle manufacturer plans to roll out leaner and lighter bikes into showrooms by the end of the month.
Good-bye hogs, hello street bikes?
"An interesting way for Harley to expand its business is to cater to a wider audience," says Moringstar analyst Jaime Katz.
Katz says 30 percent of last year's sales went to what Harley calls its "outreach market" -- anyone other than white men over the age of 35. The company hopes its "Street" models -- bikes that are lower, lighter, and easier to handle -- will create a higher demand, especially among the fastest growing demographic groups: women.
"Women are climbing corporate ladders, they own a lot of small businesses and so they have money and time," says Genevieve Schmitt, founder and editor of Women Riders Now.com. Schmitt says in a sign that the female bikers market is growing, she expects Harley's new line to attract new female riders.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: December 19, 2011

Glenville State College
(304) 462-6390
Glenville, WV— Once again, Glenville State College will be represented at the finals of the West Virginia Statewide Collegiate Business Plan Competition (WVSCBPC) sponsored by the West Virginia University Entrepreneurship Center. The WVSCBPC allows students working as individuals or teams the opportunity to submit a business idea to be evaluated by a panel of professors, venture capitalists, experienced entrepreneurs, high-tech industry leaders, CPAs, and business lawyers.
Glenville State College junior Melissa Campos has been selected as one of five finalists in the WVSCBPC Lifestyles and Innovation category. Five finalists have also been chosen for the Hospitality and Tourism category. The eventual winner in each category will be awarded $10,000 to help start their business venture as well as accounting, legal, and office space assistance. The finalists were selected from one-hundred and eighteen business plans that were entered in this year's contest.
"I screamed when I received the email that said I was a finalist. I had to double check it to make sure I was reading it right. I have received great support from the GSC Business Department and am confident that I will have a good chance at winning the contest," said Campos.
Campos is a business/marketing major at GSC and submitted a business plan for 'Happy Paws Board and Grooming' which would include services for pet owners that would incorporate agility training, behavior modification, obedience training, grooming, and mobile grooming. She already does pet grooming on a part-time basis.
"We are very proud of Melissa and "Happy Paws" advancing as a finalist in the West Virginia Statewide Student Business Plan Competition. She has represented Glenville State and the entire greater campus community so positively with her entrepreneurial passion; it is infectious. Glenville State joins WVU and Shepherd as finalists. I think that speaks well for our programs of study," said Cinda Echard GSC Associate Professor of Vocational Business.
Finalists will be attending a weekend workshop in Morgantown, West Virginia January 27-28, 2012 with financial, legal, marketing, and communication professionals. At the conclusion of the workshop, each finalist will receive a stipend of $1,000 to assist with development expenses for their business plan. Each finalist will also be assigned a business professional as a coach to help them complete his or her final business plan and feasibility study which must be submitted by the end of March. All finalists are also eligible for a free three-credit online entrepreneurship course from WVU.
The WVSCBPC finals will take place at West Virginia University April 13-14, 2012.
Campos becomes the sixth GSC student to be selected as a WVSCBPC finalist. Other GSC finalists include: Devon Maher in 2010, Barbara Blankenship in 2009, and Joshua Meadows, Daniel Bush, and Lance Hitt in 2008. Campos is hoping to be the first WVSCBPC winner for GSC.

basically the same as any other toning process. Decide what you want to use. Take a print, pre-wet. place in the solution, l.e. coffe, tea, etc. pull and wash.
there is some debate about tea being somewhat archival due to the tannic acid in tea. Don't know about food coloring or coffee, but have my doubts.
the type of tea ; i.e fruit etc will effect the tone of the print . Most who try this use a strong black tea rather than a light fruity tea. Never tried the others so i can't comment.
We tried tea in my basic toning class and it won a "thumbs down" vote from everyone; so now we don't take the time with it, however, that is not to say there will be others who think it is grand.
there are so many other stable photo toners that it didn't make sense to us, as the results where quite ugly.
However, get it a go and decide for yourself.

The Government has made a commitment to opening at least another 500 new free schools in England by 2020.
ROTA is keen to keep pressing Government to put in place measures that support free schools to comply with equality legislation (Equality Act 2010) and Public Sector Equality Duties. We know that many existing free schools are failing to do this. This situation should not develop further.

n my blog of 6th March 2014, I forecast that the Immigration Act would make private landlords into unpaid and untrained Immigration Officers.

British Future's new report 'How To Talk About Immigration' sets out the challenges for all sides when it comes to discussing and regaining trust on one of the most hotly contested issue in British politics.
The pattern of falling trust, in politicians of every party, leads many to assume that the politics of immigration offer an impossible conundrum, one in which the public are assumed to be wholly 'anti' migration and whoever talks toughest has the best chance of connecting with them – an assumption that the steady rise of UKIP has done nothing to assuage.
The aMASE community study is an online survey. It focuses on the barriers to accessing health care for migrant communities. The survey is open to all migrants, whether they are living with HIV or not. Information from this study will be used to help plan services and ensure that the best care is available for everyone in Europe, no matter where they come from.
ROTA is promoting this important survey of health care for migrant communities. Please encourage your members to participate in the survey.
The community survey takes around 15 minutes to complete. To take part you just have to be aged 18 or over and living outside your country of birth. Taking part will make a difference to you, your family and your community. Take part in the community study.

Orlando Eviction Attorney
I'm an Orlando eviction attorney, and I help residential and commercial landlords evict problem tenants due to non-payment of rent or non-compliance with a lease. I strive to be the best eviction attorney in Orlando for your needs. You've come to the right place. I help clients with property throughout the greater Orlando area, including Orange, Seminole, Osceola, and Lake counties.
I offer flat fees for Orlando eviction services so that landlords know in advance how much legal representation will cost them. The Orlando eviction process is governed by Florida landlord tenant statute Chapter 83.
Use my contact page or call (407) 476-6047. I will talk with you for free over to phone to determine your needs.
I'm a solo eviction attorney, which means that I will be the one handling your case from start to finish. I don't have a paralegal or junior attorney do the work for me.
I've found that most Orlando eviction attorney websites don't give much information about the eviction process. So I've included the below information so that you have a better idea about evictions in Orlando before you get started.
Orlando Eviction Attorney: Required to File Eviction?
No, you do not need an attorney to file an eviction in Orlando. However, the Court system is not relaxed when it comes to meeting the strict requirements of all forms and procedures to complete the eviction. Any error could result in the eviction failing and having to start over again. If you'd rather not worry about that, hire an eviction attorney.
I understand what it is like to deal with a problem tenant. I will work with you to take care of the entire eviction process from start to finish as fast as possible so that you can focus on other things. While you are not required to hire a lawyer, I'll make sure it's done correctly and quickly.
Orlando Eviction Process
Here's the Orlando eviction process step-by-step:
1. 3 Day Notice to tenant .
2. Complaint.
3. Summons.
4. Tenant has 5 days to answer to the complaint.
5. If the tenant does not answer, move for default judgment.
6. Final judgment.
7. Writ of possession
For more detailed information on each step, check out my page on the Orlando eviction process. I charge a flat fee for all Orlando evictions.
Documents You Need for an Orlando Eviction
Copy of the Lease.
Copy of the 3 Day Notice (if you haven't done this, I can help you with it).
Copy of any letters you have sent to the tenant.
How Long Does the Orlando Eviction Process Take?
For an uncontested eviction case, up 3-4 weeks. If the case is contested, it can take longer.
How to Get Started
Get started immediately with the eviction process by doing one of these three things:
1. Contact me using the contact page.
2. Call my office at (407) 476-6047
3. Email me directly at email@example.com.
To speed up the eviction process, you can email me all the necessary documents.
What about Past Rent?
As part of the Orlando eviction process, we'll include a claim for damages, such as past rent. That being said, if the tenant doesn't have enough money to pay you rent, then he probably doesn't have money to collect either.
Where to Find More Information about Orlando Evictions?
You can find some basic information the Orlando county websites discussing eviction. Here is information about Orange County, and here is some information from Seminole County.

CAMP� is a 123 year-old, family-owned Italian brand that has maintained its heritage, with the global headquarters still nestled in the tiny mountain village of Premana situated in the Pre-Alps of Northern Italy. To give an idea of this remote location - there is a road into the front of the village, but no road out the back. Here you find only mountains.
Their name, CAMP, is an acronym that stands for Concezione Articoli Montagna Premana or Conception of Articles for Mountaineering Made in Premana. Because of who they are, what they do, and where they are, each and every person at CAMP eats, sleeps, and breathes a true authentic mountain culture, because quite literally, they don't have access to much else on a day-to-day basis.

Artist info
Rock, Roots
Sounds like
Ash Grunwald, Seasick Steve, The Black Keys
band members
Luke Marsh - Vocals, Guitar, Cigar-box guitar. Ed Noble - Drums, Vocals.
Raw and powerful rock n roll blended with sweet traditional delta blues licks and tricks - Filthy Lucre are a dual powerhouse of sound that will reel you in from four streets away.
Forming in early 2012 with the idea of becoming a two-piece 'cover band', the band never got further than rehearsing two cover songs before they came up with a handful of their own original garage-blues tracks. With Ed Noble on drums and Luke Marsh on vocals and guitar, their distinctive sound had been described as being a mix of Ash Grunwald, Seasick Steve, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix. In more recent times, the band's sound has evolved to showcase sounds the likes of Clutch, Kyuss and Black Sabbath, with some of these heavier songs being performed on a hand-made cigar box guitar, giving the raw bluesy tunes a rugged edge of heavy 'Desert Rock'. Live performances in their hometown of Adelaide, South Australia, and in Melbourne and regional towns have seen punters drawn in from the streets and surrounding venues, said to have been expecting more than a five-piece rock band playing on stage.
Early on in the band's career their debut 5-track self titled EP was released, following a series of shows in and around Adelaide City that would continue almost on a weekly basis for the rest of 2012. The EP was recorded in a basement using only two microphones, completely mixed and mastered by Luke in a matter of days. While this release still stands alone today in the band's discography, Filthy Lucre are set to lay down almost 2 years worth of refined material for a full-length album release due in late 2014.
The past year and a half has seen the band go from a huge first-place win and $5,000 cash prize at the Seaford Tavern Battle of the Bands and taking out first place in the Adelaide Roots & Blues Association Competition, to performing alongside internationally renowned artists such as Tex Perkins, Ash Grunwald, and Dallas Frasca.

ROCKFORD — Roughly 1,300 Jefferson High School students did something in January that Rockford public school students never have done before — they declared a field of study.
ROCKFORD — Roughly 1,300 Jefferson High School students did something in January that Rockford public school students never have done before — they declared a field of study.
They registered for one of four academies and one of 28 pathways. It's a radical change from traditional class registration, and it's a milestone in the Rockford School District's much-talked-about high school redesign adopted last spring.
Rather than pluck random courses from a laundry list of core studies and electives, Jefferson's 2013-14 sophomores, juniors and seniors spent the past couple of months thumbing through a glossy 40-page academies guide.
They met with counselors. They attended career expos. They talked it over with parents, family members and friends.
That process alone proved beneficial, educators said.
"We've had a handful of experiences where a student has come in and said they wanted to be in a certain pathway. But then they said, 'I don't want to take those classes,'" said David Carson, the district's director of college and career readiness. "That makes you step back. Maybe you didn't pick the right pathway."
There always are students who want to go into health care but pass out when they see blood, he said. There always are students who want to be lawyers or forensic scientists because of what they've seen on TV. Reality is a turn off.
Academies will let Rockford students as young as 13 and 14 years old explore options and rule things in or out long before they're in college and paying tuition.
"When you're talking to a kid in post-secondary and they don't know what they want to study or what they want to be, that can be a problem," Carson said.
The rest of the district's high school students will join Jefferson in the academy approach in the 2014-15 school year.
Human and Public Services was the overwhelming academy of choice at Jefferson with 430 students. It was followed by Health Sciences with 311, BAMIT (Business, Arts, Marketing and Information Technology) with 298 and finally EMITT (Engineering, Manufacturing, Industrial and Trades Technology) with 260.
Of the 28 "pathways" within the four academies, the most popular selections among Jefferson students were medical sciences, law and public safety and graphic design.
Judy Gustafson, Jefferson's college and career readiness academy coach, said she wasn't surprised by the students' leanings.
"Human and public service is important to students this age," Gustafson said. "Making a difference in the world is very appealing to this group of kids."

REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) -- The Icelandic government says it will guarantee all domestic savings deposits.
The Icelandic prime minister's office said Monday that deposits in the country's commercial and savings banks would be "fully covered."
European governments such as Ireland, Germany, Austria, Greece and Denmark have already moved to guarantee bank deposits.
But European regulators and other governments worry that the moves pose competition concerns and could limit efforts to stabilize Europe's troubled financial sector.

When a child is choking, it means that an object — usually food or a toy — is lodged in the trachea (the airway) and is keeping air from flowing normally into or out of the lungs, so the child isn't able to breathe properly.
The trachea is usually protected by a small flap of cartilage called the epiglottis. The trachea and the esophagus share an opening at the back of the throat, and the epiglottis acts like a lid, snapping shut over the trachea each time a person swallows. It allows food to pass down the esophagus and prevents it from going down the trachea.
But every once in a while, the epiglottis doesn't close fast enough and an object can slip into the trachea. This is what happens when something goes "down the wrong pipe."
Most of the time, the food or object only partially blocks the trachea and it's likely that it will be coughed up and that breathing will be restored easily. A child who seems to be choking and coughing but is still able to breathe and talk probably will recover unassisted. It can be uncomfortable and upsetting, but the child is generally fine after a few seconds.
Choking Can Be an Emergency
Sometimes, an object can get into the trachea and completely block the airway. If airflow into and out of the lungs is blocked, and the brain is deprived of oxygen, choking can become a life-threatening emergency.
A child may be choking and need help right away if he or she:
- is unable to breathe
- is gasping or wheezing
- is unable to talk, cry, or make noise
- turns blue
- grabs at his or her throat or waves arms
- appears panicked
- becomes limp or unconscious
In those cases, immediately start abdominal thrusts (also known as the Heimlich maneuver), the standard rescue procedure for choking, if you've been trained to do it properly.
Abdominal Thrusts (The Heimlich Maneuver)
If you have kids, it's important to get trained in both cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the technique of abdominal thrusts. Even if you don't have kids, knowing how to perform these first-aid procedures will let you help if you're ever in a situation where someone is choking.
The idea of the abdominal thrusts is that a sudden burst of air forced upward through the trachea from the diaphragm will dislodge a foreign object and send it flying up into (or even out of) the mouth.
Though the technique of abdominal thrusts is pretty simple, it must be performed with caution, especially on young children. It's safest when done by someone trained to perform it. If it's done the wrong way, the choking person — especially a baby or child — could be hurt. There's a special version of abdominal thrusts just for infants that is designed to lower the risk of injury to their small bodies.
The technique of abdominal thrusts and CPR are usually taught as part of basic first-aid courses, which are offered by YMCAs, hospitals, and local chapters of the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American Red Cross.
What to Do
Call 911 for any critical choking situation.
Here are several possible scenarios you might face and tips on how to handle them:
- If a child is choking and coughing but can breathe and talk and the airway is not completely blocked, it's best to do nothing but watch the child carefully and make sure he or she recovers completely. The child will likely be fine after a good coughing spell. Don't reach into the mouth to grab the object or even pat the child on the back. Either of these steps could push the object farther down the airway and make the situation worse. Stay with the child and remain calm until the episode passes.
- If a child is conscious but can't breathe, talk, or make noise, or is turning blue, the situation calls for abdominal thrusts. Begin to relieve choking if you've been trained to do so. If you haven't been trained, and no one else is available to perform it, call 911 for help.
- If the child was choking and is now unconscious and no longer breathing, call for help and then proceed immediately to CPR, if you've been trained in it. If you have not, call 911.
When to Call the Doctor or Go to the ER
Take your child for emergency medical care after any major choking episode.
Also seek emergency medical care for a child if:
- there is a persistent cough, drooling, gagging, wheezing, difficulty swallowing, or difficulty breathing
- the child turned blue, became limp, or was unconscious during the episode, even if he or she seemed to recover
- you think the child has swallowed a foreign object like a toy or battery
If your child had an episode that seemed like choking but fully recovered after a coughing spell, there is no need to seek immediate medical care but you should call your doctor.
Preventing Choking
All kids are at risk for choking, but those younger than 3 are especially vulnerable. Young children tend to put things in their mouths, have smaller airways that are easily blocked, and don't have a lot of experience chewing and often swallow things whole.
You can help minimize the risks of choking:
- Avoid foods that pose choking risks because they're the same size and shape as a child's airway, including hot dogs, grapes, raw carrots, nuts, raisins, hard or gummy candy, spoonfuls of peanut butter, chunks of meat or cheese, and popcorn.
- At mealtime, be sure to serve a child's food in small, manageable bites. That means cutting whole grapes into quarters, cutting hot dogs lengthwise and into pieces (and remove the tough skin), and cooking vegetables rather than serving them raw. Teach kids to sit down for all meals and snacks and not to talk or laugh with food in their mouths.
- Toys and household items also pose a choking hazard — beware of deflated balloons, coins, beads, small toy parts, and batteries. Before young kids become mobile, get down on the floor often to check for objects that they could put in their mouths and choke on. You'd be surprised by the things that routinely fall off counters or out of pockets and end up under furniture, behind curtains, etc.
- Similarly, be sure to choose safe, age-appropriate toys. Always follow the manufacturer's age recommendations — some toys have small parts that can cause choking, so carefully inspect a toy's packaging.
Take the time now to become prepared. CPR and first-aid courses are a must for parents, other caregivers, and babysitters. To find one in your area, contact your local American Red Cross, YMCA, or American Heart Association chapter, or check with hospitals and health departments in your community.

IdeaPaint turns almost any smooth surface into a high-performance dry-erase board
Ease of Application Applying IdeaPaint is easy after you read the directions: Simply prime, sand, mix, and then roll on, keeping a wet edge. Although IdeaPaint conforms to all U.S. EPA regulations, is formaldehyde free, and produces no off-gassing once it's dry, you should expect a strong odor during application. The other slight drawback to the product is the cure time; it'll be hard to keep tenants/occupants from using it for a full week.
Functionality The result was just as promised - a glossy, fully functional dry-erase surface. It's easy to clean, even after the marker has been on the surface for a while. After our sample baked in the sun for more than a week, the dry-erase marker still wiped clean, with no ghosting or permanent marks remaining.
Versatility Because IdeaPaint can be applied to virtually any smooth surface, the options for use are limitless - you can even transform old classroom chalkboards into whiteboards. IdeaPaint allows you to provide dry-erase surfaces in any shape or size; if you need the space for another use down the road, you can paint right over it.
Cost Since it's paint, it will never "break" like a traditional whiteboard. You can put it on/in spaces where a traditional whiteboard might not work. You can also make the dry-erase surface any size you want, whereas traditional whiteboards come in standard sizes. And, you don't put anything into the landfill when you're ready to get rid of the product - you just paint over it. These features make it a cost-effective alternative to traditional whiteboards. It also comes with a 5-year warranty.
IdeaPaint high-performance dry-erase board paint.
(Based on a 5-star scale)
IdeaPaint, with company locations in Boston and San Francisco, transforms almost any smooth surface into a high-performance dry-erase board - without seams, borders, or restrictions on size or placement. This roller-applied paint can turn underutilized spaces into places for collaboration, brainstorming, or training. Just one coat of IdeaPaint is needed on a vertical surface. Once applied, the surface won't stain or get dirty over time, making the product ideal for heavy use. When the dry-erase surface is no longer desired, simply scuff, prime, and paint over it.

United States Census Indian SchedulesEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
United States U.S. Census American Indian Research Indian Schedules
(Not to be confused with American Indian Census Rolls.) There are two kinds of Indian census schedules. This page is about the the kind of special "non-population" schedules made by the U.S. Census Bureau at the same time as regular federal population schedules. If during his visit to the rest of the population, a census taker discovered a resident was an American Indian, the census taker in some census years completed a separate, additional schedule for that person. For the 1910 federal census, Indian schedules are found at the end of the regular population schedules for each county. The Indian schedules are similar but have some slightly different questions from the regular population schedules.
Another kind of Indian census was often taken one tribe (Indian nation) at a time by Bureau of Indian Affairs agents, and relatively few non-Indians were counted. Tribal censuses, or Indian census rolls counted mostly Indians living in that tribe. They were taken at a different time than the regular United States federal censuses. This type of Indian or tribal census, or Indian census roll is not described any further on this Wiki page. For further information about that type of Indian or tribal census see American Indian Census Rolls.

Molly Haigh is a veteran strategist who has lead dozens of political and issue based campaigns to success.
Most recently, Molly worked with UltraViolet forcing Reebok to drop the rapper Rick Ross over his controversial statements about rape. The three-week campaign forced the issue of rape culture into the national spotlight, cost Rick Ross a $5 million contract, and garnered nearly 3,000 stories in outlets ranging from TMZ to the New York Times and The View.
Molly helped manage Van Jones' media presence through Rebuild the Dream before he joined CNN, and has trained hundreds of people—from sexual assault survivors to people living on the minimum wage to climate activists—on successfully communicating with the press.
Prior to Fitzgibbon Media, Molly worked at 350.org, an international organization building a movement to stop climate change. Molly's background is in organizing; in 2010 she directed field efforts across the Alaska road system for Senate Candidate Scott McAdams. She originally hails from Fairbanks, AK.

Approval comes days after $54,400 donation to Brown campaign
Sacramento Rebounding state revenue bolstered by temporary tax increases recently approved by voters are paying off for California's largest public employees' union.
The state Senate this week, following earlier approval in the Assembly, ratified a three-year agreement that gives the 95,000 members of Service Employees International Union Local 1000 4.5 percent pay raises by July 1, 2015. The agreement was negotiated between the union and Gov. Jerry Brown's administration.
The union supported Brown's successful drive last fall for a ballot initiative temporarily raising the statewide sales tax and income taxes on those making more than $250,000 a year. The tax increases are expected to generate about $6 billion more per year.
Democrats used their two-thirds supermajority in the Senate on Wednesday to approve AB1377 on a 27-8 vote, sending the bill containing the agreement to the Democratic governor for his signature.
They acted days after SEIU 1000 gave Brown's 2014 re-election campaign committee $54,400.
"We don't really have any comment on that specific contribution," union spokesman Jim Zamora said.
A spokesman for the governor would not comment on the timing of the contribution, opting instead to address the contract itself. "This is a good, solid agreement that is fair to taxpayers and employees …," Evan Westrup said when asked about a relationship between the contract and the contribution.
Only Democrats supported the measure in the Senate, but 10 Republicans voted it for it in the Assembly, where it passed 63-9 last month.
The specific timing of the raise depends on state revenue. The agreement says employees will get a 2 percent raise on July 1, 2014, followed by a 2.5 percent increase the following July 1 if tax revenue meets projections. If revenue falls short, the entire 4.5 percent increase would go into effect in 2015.
Republicans in the Senate said approving the agreement based on temporary taxes is foolish and a disservice to voters.

Is That Anthony's Weiner? He "Can't Say With Certitude"
Asked if the lewd picture that graced his Twitter account on Friday night was a picture of him (see Stacy's piece from yesterday if you're just joining us on this story), Anthony Weiner says "I can't say with certitude."
Oh my. This implies three things:
1) Anthony Weiner owns a pair of grey boxer-briefs similar to those in the picture.
2) The picture is, to put it as delicately as possible, consistent with his anatomy.
3) Anthony Weiner has sent racy pictures of himself across the internet in the past, often enough that he can't keep track of all them that are out there. (Jonah Goldberg riffs on this point.)
At this point it's actually better for Weiner if he's lying and in fact knows very well that this was a picture of his nether regions. Because if point 3 is true, the story is only just beginning.

TROOPS continued to move to Camp Bouchard, twenty-five miles from Montreal, on October 14. In Toronto Prime Minister John Robarts rejected any deal with the FLQ -- "It's war -- total war." In Paris a group calling itself the European contingent of the FLQ boldly threatened to destroy Canadian air and rail communications outside of Quebec. In Quebec the press continued its speculations. Claude Ryan and some others believed that the Quebec cabinet, although badly divided, was anxious to go to almost any length to secure the release of Cross and Laporte but were held in check by an inflexible Canadian government. Claude Henault wrote in the Toronto Telegram (October 15):
A source close to Quebec Premier Robert Bourassa said in an interview yesterday that Mr. Bourassa, who was elected on a pro-Federal ticket, is "dead tired from lack of sleep in the past few days and getting a little fed up with Ottawa's refusal to be flexible."
Ottawa, the source said, seems unable to see the problem from Quebec's point of view. Mr. Bourassa is under considerable pressure, partly from within the easily-split Quebec Liberal Federation, to obtain the freedom of the kidnapped Labor Minister Pierre Laporte.
Prime Minister Bourassa repeatedly denied that there was any basic split in the cabinet, and both he and Mr Trudeau denied that Quebec was being driven by a hard line from Ottawa. (Indeed, the evidence suggests that Trudeau. was restraining Quebec and Montreal authorities from precipitately demanding the use of the army or the War Measures Act.) Nevertheless, the view that Ottawa was determining policy and that outside pressure would stiffen the supposedly floundering Bourassa cabinet lay behind the meeting of sixteen prominent Québécois at the Holiday Inn on October 14. Claude Ryan ( Le Devoir, October 30) provided the background to the meeting:
... On Wednesday October 14 Mr Bourassa phoned and told me there might be "a small step" in the direction of taking a firm stand. His remarks caused me some concern. On the same day at about 5 Pm I received a telephone call from Mr René Lévesque. The latter, who had been following the line adopted by the Devoir during this crisis with some interest, told me that he feared a shift

Falling In Love Again: Face-Transplant Donor's Daughter Meets Recipient
If there's one conversation you listen to today, make it Melissa Block's talk with Carmen Blandin Tarleton and Marinda Righter.
Tarleton, who was disfigured when her estranged husband poured Lye over her body, received a face transplant in February. This week, for the first time, Tarleton met Righter, the daughter of the face donor.
Righter and Tarleton embraced and then Righter asked Tarleton if she could touch her face.
"It was probably one of the best feelings I've had in my life," Tarleton told Melissa.
"It was like falling in love all over again," Righter said.
We'll leave you with an excerpt of their conversation:
The rest of Melissa's interview will air on All Things Considered tonight. Click here to find your local NPR member station. We'll post the as-aired interview on this post, a little later tonight.

Ps. Shes not sick, either.
LO just screams and screams and screams....
Ps. Shes not sick, either.
Comments (10)
I feel your pain. We were going through this last week. Do you swaddle her? My LO is a Houdini and can wrestle his arms out so DH swears he hates to be swaddled, yet when I get him fully contained he sleeps soundly for two hours at nap time.
I found this video on Youtube about a DIY miracle blanket. I've been doing this for several days and it works perfectly.
I put both blankets in the crib all laid out for baby. Then I feed the baby until he's good and drowsy. Then I put him in the crib and swaddle him according to this video.
Then I put on some white noise fairly loud and walk away. He may fuss for a minute or two but he goes to sleep almost every time. It has worked for every nap all week so far. Woo hoo!
Give it a shot. It can't hurt, right?
I'm a proud BFing, CDing, BWing, over 40 mom and loving it. DD born 12/04, DS born 10/12.
( . Y . ) Yay, just made silver and going for gold!
Good luck!
Good luck!
I just want to say I feel your pain :) My 8 week old was the same way. I have found a semi-ferber technique works: I make sure she is changed, fed, and has had a baby massage. Then I gently put her in her crib in her halo sleep sack. I stay there and hold her arms gently on her body and rub her little cute body :) and sing "tender shepherd". I sign it once and then again. The second time I stop rubbing. Third time I gently let go of arms. last time I stand there. then I sing it again while standing like halfway out of ther oom. And again in teh doorway. And again in the hallway... :) very tedious but precious and is helping.
if she starts fussing I wait THREE minutes. No longer. Then I go in, cuddle, and hold her. And repeat above. Then I wait 5 minutes if she fusses. And repeat above. And lastly, ten minutes.
I have only had to do a ten minute wait once. when she wakes the next time at night she is able to self soothe quickly. Hgood luck!

I have a screwed up version of this under "traditional mexican folk songs" (I think). Could you remove that entirely (it was mine) and/or replace it with this? This is corrected.
Traditional Mexican folk song, as done by Richie Valens
My English teacher taught me how to play this. Here's my transcription. One guitar plays the tab, the other plays the chords:
According to the sheet music, these are the lyrics for the song:
Walalalala bamba, walalalala bamba, es necesito, a poca la gracia
A poca la gracia pa me, pa tia
Arriba, arriba.
Arriba, arriba, por que sere, por que sere, por que sere
Yo no soy mananero, Yo no soy mananero, soy capitan, soy capitan, soy capitan
Unfortunately, I'm doing this on a laptop and without a 10 key, I can't enter the ANSI character set figures for accents and eclensions for the proper spelling of things like que (which has an accent over the 'e') and that sort of thing. If you'd like the English translation, I can provide it, but quite a bit of the Spanish lyrics are idiomatic, meaning there is only a loose English translation.
its marinero ! not mananero !

Alpha Protocol developer Obsidian Entertainment has revealed why it chose to include sex scenes in the upcoming espionage RPG."I don't see sex in games as an achievement to be earned, but as an experience, and I think Alpha Protocol delivers it as an experience first," Obsidian's Chris Avellone told VG247."There's a lot of emotional depth in Alpha Protocol from bonding over mutual respect, friendship, questioning traditional loyalty (at points, quite extreme), and even what I would call "no-mances," which are devoid of romantic feeling entirely but provide a nice character arc for the player and the target, regardless."He goes on to criticize developers which add sexual content for shock value only."I think the focus on sex solely as sex (or more specifically, the taboo it has) is pretty ridiculous."Elsewhere in the interview, Avellone explains why the traditional black/white morality system in RPG games does not apply to Alpha Protocol."In Alpha Protocol, however, rather than you being marked as good or evil (which is a weak classification for the spy genre, in my opnion), individual people's perceptions of you change," he said."We do allow the player to offer motivations and commentary on their own actions in the game (which may not mesh at all with their motivations at the end-game, with great results), but NPCs react to the player based on the NPC's own morality judgments, not the player's – or ours as game designers."Alpha Protocol is due for release on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 in Spring 2010.

SIA 2008 in beautiful and scanadalous Las Vegas is in the bag. The third day of the four day show started off a little slower following the Lil John concert presented by Spyder the night before (open bar is always and never a good thing). Doug, Josh Anderson and I spent the better part of the previous day fairly intoxicated (mainly thanks to the Moment guys...again) before hitting up the show, and as a result we had to run around (wait...I mean ride around) like chickens with no heads on day three to score the remaining product shots that our antics prevented us from getting the day before. Therefore, prepare to be overloaded with a buttload of pics from some of the best looking brands on the market, and we'll see you next year...same time, same place, for the last year that SIA is held at Vegas, before it moves to Denver in 2010 :(

By Diane Anderson-Minshall
Clairmont Lavender Farm
At the end of what was a relaxing yet expedient weekend trip, as we drove south back to L.A. in that perfect little Mercedes-powered Roadtrek RV I was reluctantly having to give back to the dealer the next morning, we pondered over the trip, about how something so decidedly common and middle-class (like camping) could turn into a pretty sophisticated adventure that spans from zip lining to wine and tapas rooms, made all the better by driving a drool-worthy vehicle and landing in a couple of great campgrounds. Sure, you could call it "glamping" (which magazine writers use to mean upscale camping; it combines "glamour" and "camping" but really sounds like it could be "gay" and "lamping" too). But I think this trip was more than just glamping.
We got a glimpse at contemporary Americana, a type of travel as old as the auto but so thoroughly remade for the modern era that even chi-chi LGBT folks (and their families) are diving in, no longer searching for safety and belonging on the sidelines, but manning the wheel at the forefront of this travel reinvention. And their spouses, along for the ride, busily mapping the wine tours.
Some Important Details if You Go
GoRVing.com can help you find local RV dealers, RV rentals, and any of the 16,000 campgrounds.
SolvangUSA.com offers info on visiting this little Danish town.
The Danish escaped those Midwest winters for Solvang, Calif., a reminder that the best times to go to Santa Barbara County is basically anytime you have a weekend or more to go. The weather is always good. But do know that December is a great time to visit the region. Winterfest happens all month in Solvang with Nativity pageants, carolers, tree-lighting ceremony, ice skating, and a holiday wine walk among other festivities. Los Alamos has a Holiday Stroll December 14, when revelers walk the seven-block-long Bell Street main thoroughfare, where there are art galleries, antique shops, and wine-tasting rooms, and the streets are lined with Mexican luminarias and a bonfire. And December 7 Los Olivos hosts its small-town-feeling Old Fashioned Christmas, where the streets are filled with luminarias and the smell of popcorn and roasted walnuts.
There's an Antique and Retro Shopper's Map to Santa Barbara and Ventura County that highlights some of the great spots for pop-ins like Buellton's femmetastic Pink Trash & Treasure. You can download the map at ShoppersMap.com.
The only thing we missed that we may need to head back for soon is the Lake Cachuma Eagle Cruises, two-hour water treks with a naturalist aboard a 45-passenger pontoon boat, the Osprey, in search of the elusive bald eagle and other migratory birds. The tours go November through February and are accessible enough for my wheelchair-using friends and anyone over 4. (For reservations, call 805-686-5050),

Syria is a terror state. It didn't become that way overnight because of the Arab Spring or the Iraq War.
Its people are not the victims of American foreign policy, Islamic militancy or any of the other fashionable excuses. They supported Islamic terrorism. Millions of them still do.
They are not the Jews fleeing a Nazi Holocaust. They are the Nazis trying to relocate from a bombed out Berlin.
These are the cold hard facts.
ISIS took over parts of Syria because its government willingly allied with it to help its terrorists kill Americans in Iraq. That support for Al Qaeda helped lead to the civil war tearing the country apart.
The Syrians were not helpless, apathetic pawns in this fight. They supported Islamic terrorism.
A 2007 poll showed that 77% of Syrians supported financing Islamic terrorists including Hamas and the Iraqi fighters who evolved into ISIS. Less than 10% of Syrians opposed their terrorism.
Why did Syrians support Islamic terrorism? Because they hated America.
Sixty-three percent wanted to refuse medical and humanitarian assistance from the United States. An equal number didn't want any American help caring for Iraqi refugees in Syria.
The vast majority of Syrians turned down any form of assistance from the United States because they hated us. They still do. Just because they're willing to accept it now, doesn't mean they like us.
If we bring Syrian Muslims to America, we will be importing a population that hates us.
The terrorism poll numbers are still ugly. A poll this summer found that 1 in 5 Syrians supports ISIS. A third of Syrians support the Al Nusra Front, which is affiliated with Al Qaeda. Since Sunnis are 3/4rs of the population and Shiites and Christians aren't likely to support either group, this really means that Sunni Muslim support for both terror groups is even higher than these numbers make it seem.
And even though Christians and Yazidis are the ones who actually face ISIS genocide, Obama has chosen to take in few Christians and Yazidis. Instead 98.6% of Obama's Syrian refugees are Sunni Muslims.
This is also the population most likely to support ISIS and Al Qaeda.
But these numbers are even worse than they look. Syrian men are more likely to view ISIS positively than women. This isn't surprising as the Islamic State not only practices sex slavery, but has some ruthless restrictions for women that exceed even those of Saudi Arabia. (Al Qaeda's Al Nusra Front, however, mostly closes the gender gap getting equal support from Syrian men and women.)
Continue reading all this at Sultan Knish.
As the Syrians hate America, so do those liberals from Obama down who also hate America! Thus why they support so strongly the importation of so-called refugees!
