Larkin is the best bet to be a #1 center. If they have 2 high end wings, they can get away with a bit lesser center, like the Ducks had with Kariya-Rucchin-Selanne, but I'd feel better with a better center than Sheahan.
With Mantha, Larkin, Athanasiou, Tatar, Nyquist, Jurco, Sheahan, they should be able to come up with 2 pretty good lines though.

Immigration is the movement of people into a destination country to which they are not native or do not possess its citizenship in order to settle or reside there, especially as permanent residents or naturalized citizens, or to take-up employment as a migrant worker or temporarily as a foreign worker.[1][2][3]
When people cross national borders during their migration, they are called migrants or immigrants (from Latin: migrare, wanderer) from the perspective of the country which they enter. From the perspective of the country which they leave, they are called emigrant or outmigrant.[4] Sociology designates immigration usually as migration (as well as emigration accordingly outward migration).
Immigrants are motivated to leave their former countries of citizenship, or habitual residence, for a variety of reasons, including a lack of local access to resources, a desire for economic prosperity, to find or engage in paid work, to better their standard of living, family reunification, retirement, climate or environmentally induced migration, exile, escape from prejudice, conflict or natural disaster, or simply the wish to change one's quality of life. Commuters, tourists and other short-term stays in a destination country do not fall under the definition of immigration or migration, seasonal labour immigration is sometimes included.
In 2013 the United Nations estimated that there were 231,522,215 immigrants in the world (apx. 3.25% of the global population).[5] The United Arab Emirates has the largest proportion of immigrants in the world, followed by Qatar.[6][7]
|This section requires expansion. (October 2015)
Many animals have migrated across evolutionary history (not including seasonal bird migration), including pre-humans. Human migration started with the migration out of Africa into the Middle East, and then to Asia, Australia, Europe, Russia, and the Americas. This is discussed in the article pre-modern human migration.
Recent history is discussed in the articles history of human migration and human migration.
As of 2005[update], the United Nations reported that there were nearly 191 million international immigrants worldwide, about 3 percent of the world's population.[8] In 2013 the United Nations estimated that there were 231,522,215 immigrants in the world (apx. 3.25% of the global population),[5] while the number of immigrants increases along with the world's population the proportion of immigrants as part of the world's population remained relatively consistent since 1990. In 2005 60% of immigrants lived in developed countries while the rest lived in developing countries.
The Midwestern United States, some parts of Europe, some small areas of Southwest Asia, and a few spots in the East Indies have the highest percentages of immigrant population recorded by the UN Census 2005.[citation needed] The reliability of immigrant censuses is low due to the concealed character of undocumented labor migration.[citation needed]
2012 survey
A 2012 survey by Gallup found that given the opportunity, 640 million adults would migrate to another country, with 23% of these would-be immigrant choosing the United States as their desired future residence, while 7% of respondents, representing 45 million people, would choose the United Kingdom. The other top desired destination countries (those where an estimated 69 million or more adults would like to go) were Canada, France, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Germany and Spain.[9]
Understanding of immigration
One theory of immigration distinguishes between push and pull factors.[13]
Push factors refer primarily to the motive for immigration from the country of origin. In the case of economic migration (usually labor migration), differentials in wage rates are common. If the value of wages in the new country surpasses the value of wages in one's native country, he or she may choose to migrate, as long as the costs are not too high. Particularly in the 19th century, economic expansion of the US increased immigrant flow, and nearly 15% of the population was foreign born,[14] thus making up a significant amount of the labor force. Poor individuals from less developed countries can have higher standards of living in developed countries than in their originating countries.[citation needed]
As transportation technology improved, travel time and costs decreased dramatically between the 18th and early 20th century. Travel across the Atlantic used to take up to 5 weeks in the 18th century, but around the time of the 20th century it took a mere 8 days.[15] When the opportunity cost is lower, the immigration rates tend to be higher.[15] Escape from poverty (personal or for relatives staying behind) is a traditional push factor, and the availability of jobs is the related pull factor. Natural disasters can amplify poverty-driven migration flows. Research shows that for middle-income countries, higher temperatures increase emigration rates to urban areas and to other countries. For low-income countries, higher temperatures reduce emigration.[16]
Emigration and immigration are sometimes mandatory in a contract of employment: religious missionaries and employees of transnational corporations, international non-governmental organizations, and the diplomatic service expect, by definition, to work "overseas". They are often referred to as "expatriates", and their conditions of employment are typically equal to or better than those applying in the host country (for similar work).[citation needed]
For some migrants, education is the primary pull factor (although most international students are not classified as immigrants). Retirement migration from rich countries to lower-cost countries with better climate is a new type of international migration. Examples include immigration of retired British citizens to Spain or Italy and of retired Canadian citizens to the US (mainly to the US states of Florida and Texas).[citation needed]
Non-economic push factors include persecution (religious and otherwise), frequent abuse, bullying, oppression, ethnic cleansing, genocide, risks to civilians during war, and social marginalization.[17][18] Political motives traditionally motivate refugee flows; for instance, people may emigrate in order to escape a dictatorship.[19]
Some migration is for personal reasons, based on a relationship (e.g. to be with family or a partner), such as in family reunification or transnational marriage (especially in the instance of a gender imbalance). Recent research has found gender, age, and cross-cultural differences in the ownership of the idea to immigrate.[20] In a few cases, an individual may wish to immigrate to a new country in a form of transferred patriotism. Evasion of criminal justice (e.g., avoiding arrest) is a personal motivation. This type of emigration and immigration is not normally legal, if a crime is internationally recognized, although criminals may disguise their identities or find other loopholes to evade detection. For example, there have been cases of those who might be guilty of war crimes disguising themselves as victims of war or conflict and then pursuing asylum in a different country.[citation needed]
Barriers to immigration come not only in legal form or political form; natural and social barriers to immigration can also be very powerful. Immigrants when leaving their country also leave everything familiar: their family, friends, support network, and culture. They also need to liquidate their assets, often at a large loss,[citation needed] and they incur the expense of moving. When they arrive in a new country, this is often with many uncertainties including finding work, where to live, new laws, new cultural norms, language or accent issues, possible racism, and other exclusionary behavior towards them and their family. These barriers act to limit international migration (scenarios where populations move en masse to other continents, creating huge population surges, and their associated strain on infrastructure and services, ignore these inherent limits on migration).[citation needed]
The politics of immigration have become increasingly associated with other issues, such as national security and terrorism, especially in western Europe, with the presence of Islam as a new major religion. Those with security concerns cite the 2005 French riots and point to the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy as examples of the value conflicts arising from immigration of Muslims in Western Europe. Because of all these associations, immigration has become an emotional political issue in many European nations.[citation needed]
Studies have suggested that some special interest groups lobby for less immigration for their own group and more immigration for other groups since they see effects of immigration, such as increased labor competition, as detrimental when affecting their own group but beneficial when impacting other groups. A 2010 European study suggested that "employers are more likely to be pro-immigration than employees, provided that immigrants are thought to compete with employees who are already in the country. Or else, when immigrants are thought to compete with employers rather than employees, employers are more likely to be anti-immigration than employees."[22] A 2011 study examining the voting of US representatives on migration policy suggests that "representatives from more skilled labor abundant districts are more likely to support an open immigration policy towards the unskilled, whereas the opposite is true for representatives from more unskilled labor abundant districts."[23]
Another contributing factor may be lobbying by earlier immigrants. The Chairman for the US Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform—which lobby for more permissive rules for immigrants, as well as special arrangements just for Irish people—has stated that "the Irish Lobby will push for any special arrangement it can get—'as will every other ethnic group in the country.'"[24][25]
Economic migrant
The term economic migrant refers to someone who has travelled from one region to another region for the purposes of seeking employment and an improvement in quality of life and access to resources. An economic migrant is distinct from someone who is a refugee fleeing persecution.
Many countries have immigration and visa restrictions that prohibit a person entering the country for the purposes of gaining work without a valid work visa. As a violation of a State's immigration laws a person who is declared to be an economic migrant can be refused entry into a country.
The process of allowing immigrants into a particular country is believed to have effects on wages and employment. In particular lower skilled workers are thought to be directly affected by economic migrants, but evidence suggests that this is due to adjustments within industries.[26]
The World Bank estimates that remittances totaled $420 billion in 2009, of which $317 billion went to developing countries.[27]
Laws and ethics
|This section needs additional citations for verification. (November 2014)
Treatment of migrants in host countries, both by governments, employers, and original population, is a topic of continual debate and criticism, as many cases of abuse and violation of rights are being reported frequently.[citation needed] Some countries have developed a particularly notorious reputation regarding treatment of migrants. The United Nations Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families, has been ratified but by 20 states, all of which are heavy exporters of cheap labor. With the sole exception of Serbia, none of the signatories are western countries, but all are from Asia, South America, and North Africa. Arab states of the Persian Gulf, which are known for receiving millions of migrant workers, have not signed the treaty as well.[citation needed] Although freedom of movement is often recognized as a civil right in many documents such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966), the freedom only applies to movement within national borders: it may be guaranteed by the constitution or by human rights legislation. Additionally, this freedom is often limited to citizens and excludes others.[citation needed]
Proponents of immigration maintain that, according to Article 13 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, everyone has the right to leave or enter a country, along with movement within it (internal migration), although article 13 actually restricts freedom of movement to "within the borders of each state." Additionally, the UDHR does not mention entry into other countries when it states that "everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country."[28] Some argue that the freedom of movement both within and between countries is a basic human right, and that the restrictive immigration policies, typical of nation-states, violate this human right of freedom of movement.[29] Such arguments are common among anti-state ideologies like anarchism and libertarianism.[30]
As philosopher and Open borders activist Jacob Appel has written, "Treating human beings differently, simply because they were born on the opposite side of a national boundary, is hard to justify under any mainstream philosophical, religious or ethical theory." However, Article 14 does provide that "everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution."[31]
Where immigration is permitted, it is typically selective. As of 2003[update], family reunification accounted for approximately two-thirds of legal immigration to the US every year.[32] Ethnic selection, such as the White Australia policy, has generally disappeared, but priority is usually given to the educated, skilled, and wealthy. Less privileged individuals, including the mass of poor people in low-income countries, cannot avail themselves of the legal and protected immigration opportunities offered by wealthy states. This inequality has also been criticized as conflicting with the principle of equal opportunities, which apply (at least in theory) within democratic nation-states. The fact that the door is closed for the unskilled, while at the same time many developed countries have a huge demand for unskilled labor, is a major factor in illegal immigration. The contradictory nature of this policy—which specifically disadvantages the unskilled immigrants while exploiting their labor—has also been criticized on ethical grounds.
Immigration policies which selectively grant freedom of movement to targeted individuals are intended to produce a net economic gain for the host country. They can also mean net loss for a poor donor country through the loss of the educated minority—the brain drain. This can exacerbate the global inequality in standards of living that provided the motivation for the individual to migrate in the first place. One example of competition for skilled labour is active recruitment of health workers from the Third World by First World countries.
Economic effects
A survey of leading economists shows a consensus behind the view that high-skilled immigration makes the average American better off.[33] A survey of the same economists also shows strong support behind the notion that low-skilled immigration makes the average American better off.[34] According to David Card, Christian Dustmann, and Ian Preston, "most existing studies of the economic impacts of immigration suggest these impacts are small, and on average benefit the native population".[35] In a survey of the existing literature, Örn B Bodvarsson and Hendrik Van den Berg write, "a comparison of the evidence from all the studies... makes it clear that, with very few exceptions, there is no strong statistical support for the view held by many members of the public, namely that immigration has an adverse effect on native-born workers in the destination country."[36]
Whereas the impact on the average native tends to be small and positive, studies show more mixed results for low-skilled natives.[37][38] Overall immigration has not had much effect on native wage inequality[39] but low-skill immigration has been linked to greater income equality in the native population.[40] Research also suggests that cultural diversity has a net positive effect on the productivity of natives.[41] A literature review of the economic impacts of immigration finds that the net fiscal impact of migrants varies across studies but that the most credible analyses typically find small and positive fiscal effects on average.[42] According to the authors, "the net social impact of an immigrant over his or her lifetime depends substantially and in predictable ways on the immigrant's age at arrival, education, reason for migration, and similar".[42] Studies of refugees' impact on native welfare are scant but the existing literature shows mixed results (negative, positive and no significant effects on native welfare).[38][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51] According to labor economist Giovanni Peri, the existing literature suggests that there are no economic reasons why the American labor market could not easily absorb 100,000 Syrian refugees in a year.[52]
Research suggests that migration is beneficial both to the receiving and sending countries.[53] According to one study, welfare increases in both types of countries: "welfare impact of observed levels of migration is substantial, at about 5% to 10% for the main receiving countries and about 10% in countries with large incoming remittances".[53] According to Branko Milanovic, country of residency is by far the most important determinant of global income inequality.[54] A study of equivalent workers in the United States and 42 developing countries found that "median wage gap for a male, unskilled (9 years of schooling), 35 year-old, urban formal sector worker born and educated in a developing country is P$15,400 per year at purchasing power parity".[55] A 2014 survey of the existing literature on emigration finds that a 10 percent emigrant supply shock would increase wages in the sending country by 2-5.5%.[56] According to economists Michael Clemens and Lant Pratchett, "permitting people to move from low-productivity places to high-productivity places appears to be by far the most efficient generalized policy tool, at the margin, for poverty reduction".[57] A successful two-year in situ anti-poverty program, for instance, helps poor people make in a year what is the equivalent of working one day in the developed world.[57] Research on a migration lottery that allowed that allowed Tongans to move to New Zealand found that the lottery winners saw a 263% increase in income from migrating (after only one year in New Zealand) relative to the unsuccessful lottery entrants.[58] A longer-term study on the Tongan lottery winners finds that they "continue to earn almost 300 percent more than non-migrants, have better mental health, live in households with more than 250 percent higher expenditure, own more vehicles, and have more durable assets".[59] A conservative estimate of their lifetime gain to migration is NZ$315,000 in net present value terms (approximately US$237,000).[59]
Studies show that the elimination of barriers to migration would have profound effects on world GDP, with estimates of gains ranging between 67–147.3%.[60][61][62] Research also finds that migration leads to greater trade in goods and services.[63][64] Using 130 years of data on historical migrations to the United States, one study finds "that a doubling of the number of residents with ancestry from a given foreign country relative to the mean increases by 4.2 percentage points the probability that at least one local firm invests in that country, and increases by 31% the number of employees at domestic recipients of FDI from that country. The size of these effects increases with the ethnic diversity of the local population, the geographic distance to the origin country, and the ethno-linguistic fractionalization of the origin country."[65] Mass migration can also boost innovation and growth, as shown by the Huguenot Diaspora in Prussia,[66] German Jewish Émigrés in the US[67] and the Mariel boatlift.[68]
One study finds "some evidence that larger immigrant population shares (or inflows) yield positive impacts on institutional quality. At a minimum, our results indicate that no negative impact on economic freedom is associated with more immigration."[69]
The Cato Institute finds little or no effect of immigration on the income of citizens belonging to established populations.[70] The Brookings Institution finds a 2.3% depression of wages from immigration from 1980 to 2007.[71] The Center for Immigration Studies finds a 3.7% depression wages from immigration from 1980 to 2000.[72]
Research indicates that immigrants are more likely to work in risky jobs than U.S.-born workers, partly due to differences in average characteristics, such as immigrants' lower English language ability and educational attainment.[73] Further, some studies indicate that higher ethnic concentration in metropolitan areas is positively related to the probability of self-employment of immigrants.[74]
Professional economic advisers suggest that lowering the number of undocumented immigrants in the United States would significantly strengthen its economy.[75]
Some research has found that as immigration and ethnic heterogeneity increase, government funding of welfare and public support for welfare decrease.[76] Ethnic nepotism may be an explanation for this phenomenon. Other possible explanations include theories regarding in-group and out-group effects and reciprocal altruism.[77]
Research however also challenges the notion that ethnic heterogeneity reduces public goods provision.[78][79] Studies that find a negative relationship between ethnic diversity and public goods provision often fail to take into account that strong states were better at assimilating minorities, thus decreasing diversity in the long run.[78] Ethnically diverse states today consequently tend to be weaker states.[78] Because most of the evidence on fractionalization comes from sub-Saharan Africa and the United States, the generalizability of the findings is questionable.[79] Much of the fractionalization in the US comes from African Americans, whose ancestors were involuntary immigrants.
Research finds that Americans' attitudes towards immigration influences their attitudes towards welfare spending.[80]
One study finds that non-native speakers of English in the UK have no causal impact on the performance of other pupils.[81] The presence of immigrant children in classrooms has no significant impact on the test scores of Dutch children.[82] An Austrian study finds no effect on grade repetition among native students exposed to migrant students.[83] A North Carolina study found that the presence of Latin American children in schools had no significant negative effects on peers, but that students with limited English skills had slight negative effects on peers.[84]
Research finds that first generation immigrants from countries with less egalitarian gender cultures adopt gender values more similar to natives over time.[85][86] According to one study, "this acculturation process is almost completed within one generational succession: The gender attitudes of second generation immigrants are difficult to distinguish from the attitudes of members of mainstream society. This holds also for children born to immigrants from very gender traditional cultures and for children born to less well integrated immigrant families."[85] Similar results are found on a study of Turkish migrants to Western Europe.[86] The assimilation on gender attitudes has been observed in education, as one study finds "that the female advantage in education observed among the majority population is usually present among second-generation immigrants."[87]
First-generation immigrants tend to hold less accepting views of homosexual lifestyles but opposition weakens with longer stays.[88] Second-generation immigrants are overall more accepting of homosexual lifestyles, but the acculturation effect is weaker for Muslims and to some extent, Eastern Orthodox migrants.[88]
A study of Bangladeshi migrants in East London found they shifted towards the thinking styles of the wider non-migrant population in just a single generation.[89]
A study on Germany found that foreign-born parents are more likely to integrate if their children are entitled to German citizenship at birth.[90]
Social capital
There is some research that suggests that immigration adversely affects social capital. One study, for instance, found that "larger increases in US states' Mexican population shares correspond to larger decreases in social capital over the period" 1986-2004.[91]
Much of the empirical research on the causal relationship between immigration and crime has been limited due to weak instruments for determining causality.[92] The problem with causality primarily revolves around the location of immigrants being endogenous, which means that immigrants tend to disproportionally locate in deprived areas where crime is higher (because they cannot afford to stay in more expensive areas) or because they tend to locate in areas where there is a large population of residents of the same ethnic background.[93] A burgeoning literature relying on strong instruments provides mixed findings.[93][94][95][96][97][98][99][100] As one economist describes the existing literature in 2014, "most research for the US indicates that if any, this association is negative... while the results for Europe are mixed for property crime but no association is found for violent crime".[93]
Research suggests that legal status largely explains the differences in crime between legal and illegal immigrants, most likely because legal status leads to greater job market opportunities for the immigrants.[101][102][103]

Supreme Court Rejects Challenges to Climate Science and EPA Carbon Pollution Standards
The Supreme Court recently rejected last-ditch efforts by industry and conservative states to block the EPA from setting standards to curb the carbon pollution that drives dangerous climate change. The Court's ruling clears the way for EPA to issue carbon pollution standards for power plants under President Obama's Climate Change Action Plan.
The Court denied petitions to review EPA's landmark carbon pollution decisions issued in President Obama's first term: the 2009 "endangerment determination" and the 2010 clean car standards set jointly with the Transportation Department, and the support of the entire car industry.
The Court granted petitions to review just one issue: whether EPA's vehicle emission standards triggered requirements for carbon-emitting industrial sources to obtain permits under other parts of the Clean Air Act.
What this means is that right-wing challenges to climate science and the Clean Air Act have failed in the Supreme Court for the third time. The Court ruled in Massachusetts v. EPA in 2007 that EPA had to set standards for carbon pollution from motor vehicles under Section 202 of the Clean Air Act if it determined that greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare. In American Electric Power v. Connecticut in 2011, the Court ruled that EPA has the same authority for power plants' carbon pollution under Section 111.
In today's ruling, the Court rejected all appeals to revisit those decisions, and limited its review to a single question the prior cases had not addressed: whether the requirement that new and modified major industrial sources obtain construction permits, and the requirement that existing major industrial sources obtain operating permits, are triggered when a source emits large amounts of carbon dioxide or another greenhouse gas.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that those permitting requirements kicked in automatically when EPA's clean car standards took effect. The Supreme Court today asked for briefs on this question: "Whether EPA permissibly determined that its regulation of greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles triggered permitting requirements under the Clean Air Act for stationary sources that emit greenhouse gases."
We're confident that EPA and the Court of Appeals got it right – that the permitting requirements do apply to greenhouse gas sources.
But the most important thing about today's Supreme Court ruling is that it reaffirms EPA's authority and responsibility to act on the overwhelming science showing that carbon pollution is driving dangerous climate change.
President Obama deserves enormous credit for setting landmark clean car standards that will cut carbon pollution in half and double fuel economy over the next decade. And he has the support of millions of Americans now in tackling the dangerous carbon pollution from our power plants.
These are critical steps to protect our children and grandchildren from a world turned upside down by climate change.

Lucy, dear, its time for a much past-due update.
You are 8 months old, I still cannot believe it.
We have a lot to catch up on.
At 6 months you were
16 lb 7 oz (54th percentile)
2 ft 7 in (100th percentile)
22nd percentile for head circumference
You are my sweet baby but you are also the length of your 1-2 year old friends so sometimes you trick us into thinking you are quite a bit older.
You spent your first Christmas sick with a virus. And in the season of giving, you shared it with the rest of the family. We were all pretty under the weather but I forced you into your Christmas dress, while your brother opted for Frozen pajamas
You began eating solid foods around 5 months and have quickly transitioned to eating finger foods by yourself. You love cherrios, pancakes and yogurt.
You are the queen of cat naps, you sleep in 20-30 minute spurts but you wake up rested, rejuvenated and always have a huge grin on your face.
At seven months you had two teeth, slept through the night and started school at the same daycare as your brother. You started scooting around with an army crawl and love to explore all around the kitchen floor.
And on the subject of your brother, you look just like him. There are subtle differences with your dainty fingers, long long lean body and your darker eyes but there is no question you and Kip are brother and sister. I always dress you in pink otherwise I have constant deja vu of Kip at your age.
Kip takes his role as big brother very seriously, he is always looking out for you. He is constantly providing protection, guidance and entertainment; always handing you dollies, stuffed animals and books or clapping your hands and playing 'patty cake'. He tries to feed you hamburgers and cookies and is convinced a pacifier should always be kept in your mouth.
We don't call you Lucy all that often. Kip only calls you Luce, I prefer Lulu or Lu, your dad calls you sweet girl and the occasional Juicy Lucy.
We are blessed by your joyful spirit and your easy going nature. You smile freely and rarely fuss. You've given us grace in the transition to a family of four and everyday you capture our hearts a little more.

"We encourage Minister Konneh and all well-meaning Liberians to join the Liberty Party so that we can extend the transformation of Liberia come 2017. We continue to talk to all political actors, including Minister Konneh, along these lines. It would be presumptuous of us, as a party seeking state power and trying to build a coalition not to do so. We have reached out to all political parties and stakeholders. No one can expect me to be Chairman of a party I believe in and not make every effort to recruit my friends and family." – Cllr. J. Fonati Koffa, Chairman, Opposition Liberty Party
Monrovia - The countdown to the 2017 presidential elections in Liberia is already gathering steam amid lingering split within the ranks of the ruling Unity Party and uncertainty over the future of Vice President, Joseph Boakai.
In the past few days, numerous reports have surfaced suggesting movements in the direction of the opposition Liberty Party pressing for a potential pairing of the party's political leader Cllr. Charles Walker Brumskine and Finance and Development Planning Minister Amara Konneh. The idea, according to sources speaking on condition of anonymity to FrontPageAfrica is to test the waters for a possible unity ticket fielding Brumskine, a devout Christian and Konneh, a Muslim in a bid to ease brewing tension between Christians and Muslims in the country.
In recent days, Liberia has been dividedly rocked by a proposal to amend the constitution in order to reinstate Christianity as the state religion, drawing ire from Muslims protesting the move and describing the proposal as an unfair marginalization of minority religious groups. The proposed amendment is en route to President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf's desk and is likely to be put to a national referendum next year.
Some participants at last week's constitutional conference responsible for reviewing the 1986 constitution backed the amendment to the dismay of Muslims who have been lobbying against the proposal and protesting the event in Gbarnga, where the conference was taking place, demanding that the current secular status remain unchanged.
Liberia's four million population is dominated by 85 percent Christians and 12 percent Muslims, according to the 2008 census, although some scholars now put that number to around 20 percent. Liberty Party Chairman Cllr. J. Fonati Koffa did not confirm or deny the reports when FrontPageAfrica contacted him Monday, but appeared calculated in his explanation.
Konneh 'Encouraged', Says LP Chair
Said Cllr. Koffa: "We do not have a secret membership roll. Minister Konneh is not a member and has not recently joined the Liberty Party." The Party Chairman, however, acknowledged that his personal friendship with Minister Konneh may be a contributing factor to the fueling speculations. Cllr. Koffa did not, however, shut the window to the possibility. "We encourage Minister Konneh and all well-meaning Liberians to join the Liberty Party so that we can extend the transformation of Liberia come 2017. We continue to talk to all political actors, including Minister Konneh, along these lines."
Cllr. Koffa added that it would be presumptuous for a party seeking state power and trying to build a coalition not to explore all avenues to increase its chances of winning. "We have reached out to all political parties and stakeholders. No one can expect me to be Chairman of a party I believe in and not make every effort to recruit my friends and family."
'Coalition best option' for 2017
The party chairman also clarified that the position of standard bearer and vice standard bearer will be determined by the Convention of delegates seated at the 2017 nominating convention and not before. He further stated that the party special convention slated for June this year is simply to put the party leadership and structure in place in preparation for 2017.
Cllr. Koffa added that it is the party's position that a coalition will be the best winner option, but declined to say who the coalition partners will be. Ahead of 2017 political speculation will continue to dominate the airways. Cllr. Brumskine who has twice contested the presidency in 2005 and 2011 recently declared that he would reconsider his decision to quit politics if asked to contest the upcoming presidential elections.
Brumskine became politically prominent in the 1990s as an ally of Charles Taylor. Following Taylor's election in 1997, Brumskine won a senate seat and became President Pro Temp of the Senate, but his ties with Taylor severed in 1999. Brumskine fled the country after being threatened by Taylor's supporters. He returned to Liberia in 2003 and contested the 2005 presidential election under the banner of the Liberty Party with a pledge to foster reconciliation after years of civil war and political turmoil, as well as improve the economy and infrastructure.
Brumskine received nearly 14% of the vote, 6% less than the second-place candidate, Sirleaf and was not eligible to contest the second round. Many political observers pointed to Brumskine's decision not to endorse a candidate in the 2005 elections, particularly George Weah as a key reason for strained ties between himself and Weah.
One Liberty insider said Monday that both Weah and Brumskine have reached out to each other in recent days. "The relationship with Weah is no longer strained, the two talk about every other day when Weah is in the country, although a pairing is not likely," the source said. Ahead of the 2011 presidential elections, an attempt to field a ticket of Brumskine and Weah failed to materialize amid reports that some CDCians still hold Brumskine for not supporting Weah in the 2005 second round, which some believe could have put Weah over the top.
Weah who had won the first round of voting, garnering 28.3% of the vote lost the second round the Sirleaf, garnering only 40.6% to 59.4% for Sirleaf. While it is still a bit early to decipher how much of an impact a potential Brumskine-Konneh ticket would make what is expected to be another wide presidential field, some political observers say the pairing could complicate the Liberty Party's quest for the post which has eluded the party's political leader. "It concerns us that the pairing could be a hard sell because it ties us to the Unity Party, when we are promising and embarking on a message of change," said Liberty Party insider who spoke to FrontPageAfrica Monday.
What remains certain for now is that the brewing religious tension may very well be burning campaign issue for the 2017 presidential play, a point some political observers say could make a Christian-Muslim ticket an appetizing proposition for voters. But whether it is a risk Brumskine and his party is willing to take at his third quest for the post he has coveted for years, remains to be seen.

Though the mainstream media and certain elected officials are advising the Republican Party to gut itself and re-emerge as a spiffy, contemporary, compliant, agreeable and infinitely more charming new political entity, the majority of Republican voters essentially reject that idea. They're at home with the Grand Old Party as it is.
"Republicans continue to want the GOP to move in a more conservative direction: 60 percent say Republican leaders should move in a more conservative direction while just 31 percent want to see them move in a more moderate direction. Democrats, however, want their party to move in a more moderate — rather than a more liberal — direction by a 55 percent to 35 percent margin," reports a Pew Research Center survey of about 2,000 voters conducted shortly after the presidential election.
"Although these views partly reflect the fact that conservatives make up a larger share of Republicans than liberals do of Democrats, this difference is evident even among the ideological wings of each party. Fully 70 percent of conservative Republicans want the GOP to move in a more conservative direction. Liberal Democrats are divided; 46 percent want the party to move in a more liberal direction while 45 percent prefer a more moderate move by the Democratic Party," the findings reveal.
Incidentally, the survey also asked voters to freely describe their personal feelings following President Obama's re-election. Among Democrats, the top-10 most cited words were relieved, happy, excited, satisfied, elated, pleased, glad, great, good and ecstatic. Among Republicans, the top words were disappointed, disgusted, shocked, surprised, fearful, sad, depressed, devastated, unhappy and upset.
Well, at least someone has a job waiting for him. When President Obama ceremoniously pardons the White House turkey next week, the gobbler has some opportunity waiting in the wings when the pardoning is done. No, it's not retiring to a verdant farm or serving as an honorary parade marshal. Wild Turkey, the bourbon maker, is offering the turkey a guaranteed gig as official "spokesbird" for its distillery in Lawrenceburg, Ky.
"In our humble opinion, there is no better place for this year's presidentially-pardoned bird to live out its golden years than the Wild Turkey Distillery grounds in central Kentucky," says Jimmy Russell, master distiller. "There really is no bird more undeniably American than the turkey. After all, it was the great Benjamin Franklin who called for it to be named our national bird."
The company already has sent a personal letter to Mr. Obama with the job offer; a reception committee and proper quarters await the feathered one.
"So, Mr. President, this Thanksgiving, please. Give us the bird," Mr. Russell adds.
Freedom still sells? You betcha. Talk that the United States is no longer a player in global business is ill-founded, say those who cite the nation's prowess in intellectual property rights and licensed products. America-centric clothing, sporting goods and even theme parks are licensed worldwide to the tune of $2 billion per year, according to industry sources. Though some in the Middle East decry the "decadent American way of life," Disneyland still could end up in Dubai, says Danny Simon, a Los Angeles-based licensing industry veteran who has shepherded the branding of merchandise based on the star power of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone, among many sources. The old American "brand" is alive, well and profitable.
"Practically speaking, the American lifestyle can actually be thought of as the American brand. Internationally, it conveys a way of living in which individuals have freedom to pursue the life they choose. This manifests itself by total access to a broad range of products and services. In addition to the notion of choice, embedded in the American brand is the perception that the opportunity to succeed is something attainable by anyone and is not just the province of the privileged," Mr. Simon tells Inside the Beltway.
"While it is conventional wisdom to think that entire nations — for example, many Middle East countries — hate everything American, this is simply not true, given the universal popularity of American media. Obviously there are detractors of America in certain regions of the world. However, there are even more who embrace the American brand. Their interest in American culture, as portrayed through American films and television programs, is actually a very clear endorsement of what our country represents."
Three cheers for Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence, which will provide a perfectly swell Thanksgiving dinner for troops in more than 200 locations in Afghanistan. The menu, which has been in the works since May, will send 60,000 pounds of beef, 20,000 pounds of ham, 45,000 pounds of turkey, 28,000 sweet potatoes and 5,800 pies on their way to those in harm's way, and with good wishes.
"I know the feeling of missing family and friends while on deployment," says U.S. Navy Rear Adm. Patricia E. Wolfe, acting commander. "Our workforce takes great pride in ensuring deployed war fighters have a taste of the holidays while they are protecting our freedoms."
The agency began work in 1800 as the Schuylkill Arsenal in Philadelphia, incidentally, and now annually distributes $14 billion a year in food, uniforms, protective equipment, medical supplies, repair parts and equipment to troops.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Retire Before It Is Too Late
by Paul on 07/17/07 at 09:54 PM ET
Comments (0)
fromAlan Adams of Sportsnet,
Why do NHLers keep trucking when either their time is up or the next hit they take might cause permanent damage?
This question is being posed here in light of the fact that Jeremy Roenick is waffling about whether to retire and Eric Lindros is looking for a team to play for in September.
We're not dumping on either Lindros or Roenick here.
When they were in their prime, Lindros and Roenick were worth the price of admission. They could carry a team on their back - they each have at one time or another - and no one could question their leadership.
But that was then and this is now.

It's no secret that social networks have had a difficult time integrating advertising that has a bang for its buck. IDC has released some data showing what social networks – and advertisers – are faced with.
Only 57 percent of social network users have clicked on an ad in the last year versus 79 percent of all users in the rest of the web.
When it comes to purchasing, only 11 percent of social network users will actually make one compared to 23 percent of the rest of the internet.
"The thinking has been that the popularity of SNS will attract a big audience and generate a lot of traffic, which in turn will produce enormous amounts of user-generated content (UGC) and therefore advertising inventory – without any expenses for editorial staff or content distribution deals," said Karsten Weide, program director, Digital Marketplace: Media and Advertising. "All of the above has proven true – except that almost invariably, SNS have had a hard time selling this inventory."
