Climate change
Abortion | Roe v. Wade turns 32 this month, but the abortion establishment it helped create is less secure than ever. With changes in schools, legislatures, and perhaps even the Democratic Party, the pro-life movement has reason for (measured) optimism
"Climate change" Continued...
What may be the biggest abortion-related political battle of 2005 began on Dec. 23, 2004, when President Bush announced that he would renominate 20 pro-life judges, including formerly filibustered nominees Alabama Attorney General Bill Pryor and Texas Supreme Court Judge Priscilla Owen. If a Supreme Court vacancy emerges, the Senate battle will become more intense.
The wider battle over abortion has now raged for more than three decades. As Roe v. Wade this month turns 32, one question is: Who's winning?
Many Republicans hope that their increased majority, now at 55 seats, will at least level the playing field, rebalancing federal courts with judges who interpret laws surrounding abortion, instead of making them. Most Democrats, meanwhile, seem likely to stick to the pro-abortion script that underlay incoming Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid's response to the latest White House sally: "I was extremely disappointed to learn today that the president intends to begin the new Congress by resubmitting extremist judicial nominees."
Other Democrats, though, are professing a kinder, gentler attitude toward pro-lifers. Former presidential candidate John Kerry shocked abortion enthusiasts at a postelection meeting of key Democratic activists at AFL-CIO headquarters in Washington, D.C. Ellen Malcolm, president of the pro-abortion political action committee Emily's List, asked Sen. Kerry where the party was headed next. The senator responded that Democrats need to "moderate" their abortion image, reach out to pro-life voters, and welcome more pro-life candidates into the party.
"There was a gasp in the room," NARAL president Nancy Keenan said. But Sen. Kerry isn't the only Democrat singing that tune. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Sen. Reid both support pro-life Democrat Tim Roemer's candidacy for the chairmanship of the DNC. In a recent CNN interview, Mr. Roemer, a former U.S. congressman, called late-term and partial-birth abortion "a moral blind spot."
Pro-abortion leaders rage about the possibility that someone not committed to abortion might lead their party. (Planned Parenthood president Gloria Feldt recently complained that Mr. Roemer's rejection of late-term abortion is nothing less than a rejection of a Democratic "core value.") But Democrats for Life of America (DFLA) president Kristen Day is ecstatic-over both Mr. Roemer's pending candidacy and the Democratic reality check in response to millions of moral-values voters.
For 11 years, Ms. Day worked on Capitol Hill as a Democratic staffer, only to go from party regular to party pariah when she founded DFLA in 1999. "When I'd tell [former Hill colleagues] what I'm doing now, I had some people actually turn around and walk away." During the run-up to the election, Ms. Day tried to have DFLA's website linked to the DNC's site. "I went for eight months without someone [at party headquarters] returning my calls," she said.
Election 2004 changed all that. Not only is the DNC returning her calls, but Ms. Day said she has attended strategy sessions with Democratic congressional leaders to encourage the inclusion of pro-lifers in national party politics. "This election was a wake-up call for a lot of people," she said. "Now, pro-life Democrats are not afraid to bring the subject up. People are willing to say, 'You know what? Our party doesn't have to be one-sided on this issue.' There's a different message coming from the top."
New boldness among pro-life Democrats combined with the larger GOP majority likely means new life for bills that failed before, such as the Child Custody Protection Act, a measure that would make it a federal crime to ferry minors across state lines for secret abortions. Meanwhile, pro-life lawmakers are unveiling new bills, including one that would temporarily suspend the sale of RU-486 pending an investigation into charges of political pressure and procedural fast-tracking surrounding approval of the drug in 2000.
In November, the FDA announced it would revise its RU-486 labeling to warn users of serious infection, sepsis, bleeding, ruptured tubal pregnancies, and death. But for Monty and Deborah Patterson, the warning is too late. Last year, their daughter Holly, 18, died after a Haywood, Calif., Planned Parenthood administered RU-486 and sent her home to expel a dead baby. Holly became pregnant at 17 and had been a legal adult for less than two weeks when she took the lethal medication on Sept. 10.
Four days later, as she doubled over with severe cramping, her boyfriend took her to the emergency room, where a doctor gave her painkillers and sent her home. By Sept. 16, Holly was unable to walk. She was again rushed to the hospital. Her father Monty arrived just in time to hold Holly's hand as she died of massive infection and septic shock, the result of incomplete expulsion of the baby.
Last month the Pattersons filed suit against RU-486 maker Danco Laboratories, Planned Parenthood, and the National Population Council, the group that engineered the introduction in the United States and holds RU-486 patent rights. In his daughter's memory Mr. Patterson has testified before Congress, backed parental involvement initiatives, and lent his support to lawmakers hoping to reveal the dangers of the drug.
His efforts came at the end of a 108th Congress that had more pro-life productivity than any since Roe v. Wade-although that's not saying much, and judicial hostility often trumped legislative progress.
"We have achieved some major advances over the past several years, but the most critical battles still lie just ahead of us," said Douglas Johnson, legislative director for the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC) in Washington, D.C. "In particular, it's absolutely necessary to have a majority of the Supreme Court willing to tolerate increased protections for unborn children. Unless that occurs, legislation to protect the unborn will ultimately be nullified . . . as we have seen so often before."
Case in point: partial-birth abortion. In Stenberg v. Carhart, the high court in 2000 rejected Nebraska's ban on the grisly late-term procedure, in the process wiping off the books similar bans in 30 states. Then came the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003, one among the pro-life measures passed by the last Congress, including the Unborn Victims of Violence Act and a ban on the patenting of human embryos. But in 2004 the federal PBA ban did not survive the trio of federal lawsuits filed by abortion-industry lawyers, and the Supreme Court, based on its Carhart decision, may rebuff any appeals.
"The majority of the current court has been imposing a policy that is very extreme, which recognizes no intrinsic right of the unborn child, and that's out of step with the views of vast majorities of Americans," Mr. Johnson said. "In order to establish more substantial protections for unborn children, that has to change."
Substantial change is underway at the state level. Mississippi lawmakers in 2004 passed a record six new pro-life laws, including comprehensive conscience protection; fetal homicide protection; reporting requirements for abortion complications; and additional regulation of abortion clinics.
Meanwhile, a new Alaska law established a publicly funded abortion information website; Kentucky lawmakers provided protection for unborn victims of violence; Missouri and Pennsylvania earmarked significant public funds for crisis pregnancy centers and other abortion alternatives; and Ohio added new regulations for the distribution and use of RU-486.
In a recent review of state laws, NARAL analysts noted that they "have never seen such intense anti-choice activity in state legislatures."
But will that intensity harm Planned Parenthood's bottom line? The abortion behemoth killed 244,628 unborn babies in 2003 (a 6.1 percent jump over 2002) and, during the fiscal year that ended in June 2004, raked in more federal money than ever before. Both publicly and privately funded, Planned Parenthood performs more surgical abortions than anyone else in the nation, 3.5 million since 1970, the equivalent of killing every resident of Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Washington, D.C. In 2003-2004, Planned Parenthood pocketed an estimated $104 million from its surgical abortion business, more than one-third of its overall clinic income.
Nevertheless, the group is closing clinics and losing donors: Over the past year, the number of Planned Parenthood clinics dropped from 866 to 849; since its 1995 heyday, the group has shuttered a net of 89 clinics. According to its 2003-2004 annual report, private donations to Planned Parenthood fell 17 percent to $191 million, the second decline in three years.
Meanwhile, the overall number of abortions in the United States remains high. But according to the most recent figures available from the Alan Guttmacher Institute, Planned Parenthood's research arm, the number of abortions fell from 1.36 million in 1996 to 1.31 million in 2000, a decline of 3.6 percent.
Crisis pregnancy centers aim to drive that number down further. In 2003 CareNet, a network of more than 800 pregnancy centers, launched its "Urban Initiative," a project to plant centers in inner cities where abortionists tend to locate their clinics. Last year, CareNet worked with local pro-life groups to open new centers in Atlanta, Ft. Wayne, Ind., and Rockford, Ill. Three more centers, in Toledo, Washington, D.C., and Rochester, N.Y., will open in early 2005, with similar efforts underway in more than a dozen other cities.
Pregnancy centers also are adding medical services-most critically ultrasound and STD testing-in order to reach "abortion-minded" women. Focus on the Family is working with centers that want to add ultrasound through "Option Ultrasound," a grant program it launched in 2004. Aided by Focus funding, at least 55 centers added the technology last year. According to surveys by both Focus and CareNet, about four in five women considering abortion decide to carry their babies to term after viewing ultrasound pictures.
Is the pro-life cause winning? Jim Sedlak, president of Virginia-based American Life League's STOPP International, a small group focused solely on fighting Planned Parenthood, noted, "At colleges and high schools across the country, it is continually a source of encouragement that so many young people are unashamedly pro-life and . . . willing to stand up for what is right." It's a dramatic change, he said, from 20 years ago when the same age groups were buying into "choice" slogans and Planned Parenthood's sex-as-self-actualization rhetoric.
Clark Forsythe of Americans United for Life, which advises state lawmakers, argues that pro-lifers should not overreach politically by pushing all-out bans on abortion, but should instead continue crafting common-sense laws-such as those requiring parental notification and consent-already proven to reduce abortion.
He recently wrote, "At a time when Justice Department attorneys are desperately battling to . . . find a necessary fifth vote on the Supreme Court to uphold the federal restriction on partial-birth abortion, a ban on abortion is clearly doomed." He noted that since abortion forces would challenge and almost certainly win court battles on a ban, such legislation would only fill the pro-abortion coffers with attorneys fees and "do nothing more than fund the [American Civil Liberties Union] and Planned Parenthood, keeping them fully employed, paid by tax dollars for years."

If we have called a crystal an enhydro, you will receive that crystal with a small sticker pointing right to the moving water bubble! We cannot emphasize enough how important providing accurate names, titles and general information is to us!
Providing information is so important to us, that we have created an entire website dedicated to crystal information – unsurprisingly it is called www.crystal-information.com! Each crystal we have for sale on Majestic Quartz has its own "Healing Properties" tab assigned to it. Within that tab – metaphysical information is provided regarding that crystal type. At the bottom of each healing properties tab is a link to further information regarding that crystal on our encyclopedia website www.crystal-information.com.

Outstanding/inspirational/awesome/astounding amount of coverage. I couldn't read the whole thing in one setting, but it will keep me busy at the office in November, thanks for the share!
I preface this post by saying I don't get paid for traffic directed to my blog (though if you're bored and want to just click on ads that will help pay the bills...), so don't play the "you're just trying to drum up traffic" card. The card I am playing is this...holy crap it took a ridiculously long time to post up 150-200 pictures and 90+ minutes of HD video footage on my blog. So long in fact that I'm not going to do it on every other forum that I frequent. With that, I hope you'll vicariously enjoy our 4 for 4 Colorado OTC archery elk hunt from 2012. I think all 4 of us would say it was the best hunt we have ever been on from the fellowship amongst hunting buddies, to the physical pounding we absorbed, to the country we hunted, to the sleepless nights due to excessive bugling, to the moments of truth, to the McDonald's meals enjoyed after 5 straight days of homemade knock-off Mountain Houses and trail mix...
I've tremendously enjoyed reading about other folks' success while sitting in airports the last couple weeks as I've flying to and fro for job interviews, conferences, and other a sundry events. Bottom line - can't wait to settle back down after 6 weeks of an overly frantic pace and start being a regular contributor again to one of the best forums online.
Follow the link and work your backwards because the posts are ordered from end of the hunt to start of the hunt on a day-by-day basis.
I apologize in advance for the enormous amount of content and possible long load time...just don't get caught reading when your boss walks in your office.

Here is the 4.5.rc2 French translation.
Since 4.5.rc1 there is a new property file (ZhMsg.properties) with more than 500 lines. I'm still translating it, so many labels in the new features will be in English.
As usual, you can download the translated files attached below plus a tar file with the date zimlet, the spell check patch, and an installation script, from http://files.whitehatmail.fr/ (user invite, password invite).
The spell check works better, but still has some bugs. I have to do some more tests before posting it to bugzilla.
Otherwise, the upgrade from 4.0.4 works smoothly and, personnaly, I like very much the new GUI layout.

Locals embrace selection of pope
Parishioners, diocese officials hope Pope Francis can rebuild church
1 2 3 Next page >
Eyes around the world were focused on the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City on March 13, as white smoke billowed from the chapel's chimney, indicating that the College of Cardinals had selected a new pope.
Many of those eyes were right here in East Meadow. The Herald surveyed the reaction of the local community, and learned that the choice of Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina, now known as Pope Francis, came as a surprise.
The Rev. Ralph Sommer, of St. Brigid's Roman Catholic Church in Westbury, admitted that he was unfamiliar with the new pontiff, but said he grew increasingly fascinated as he learned his life story. "So far, I'm touched by some of his humble gestures," Sommer said this week.
He said he was particularly impressed, when, before delivering the traditional pope's blessing to Rome, Francis bowed before the massive crowd in St. Peter's Square, asking them to bless him. "That is a very humble and a very open act," Sommer said. "He really wants to engage in the community. And that's really what a church is, isn't it? A family community."
Joann Heaney-Hunter, a pastoral associate at St. Raphael's Roman Catholic Church in East Meadow, has taught theology at St. John's University for 26 years. She said she was in a faculty meeting with her colleagues when she first heard the news. "Somebody said 'White smoke,' and we all just stopped," she recounted.
The Mineola native said that Bergoglio was a top candidate for the papacy in 2005, but was not the subject of much attention this year because of his age. But Heaney-Hunter said she is pleased with the selection. "My immediate thought was that he was an absolutely beautiful, humble man who had the spirit of God in him," she said. "I believed that he stood there in humility, and he asked the people of the crowd to pray for him before he blessed them."
Pope Benedict XVI's stunning resignation last month drew mixed reviews from Catholics, according to Heaney-Hunter. "There are some people who believe that the pope should stay as pope until he dies," she said. "But many more believe that what Pope Benedict did took an enormous amount of courage and humility."

(WUSA9) -- You've heard the advice to wash your hands and get a flu shot. But what else can you do to try and avoid spreading germs at the height of flu season?
Today, AARP released a list of 8 things you may want to try and avoid touching, that might not be on your radar.
1.) Restaurant Menus
Hundreds of people could have touched that menu you're using to decide what to order. But what are the odds it's been washed since they did? Try not to let it touch your plate or silverware. And once you've handed it back to the server, head to the restroom and wash your hands.
2.) Lemon Wedges
Back in 2007, a study in the Journal of Environmental Health found that nearly 70% of the lemon wedges found on the edge of restaurant glasses contained disease-causing microbes. So play it safe, and just ask your server to skip the garnish.
3.) Condiment Dispensers
You may wash your hands before every meal, but did the last person at your table? Don't take the risk -- and before you pour either use a disinfectant wipe on the outside of the bottle, or grab it with a napkin.
4.) Restroom Door Handles
This one can be pretty easy to protect yourself. When you grab that paper towel to dry your hands after you wash them, hang on to it when you open the door.
5.) Soap Dispensers
It may seem ironic, but a study out of the University of Arizona found that 25% of public restroom soap dispensers are actually contaminated with fecal matter. Microbiologists suggest that when you do have to use one, make sure you scrub your hands thoroughly with plenty of hot water for at least 15 to 20 seconds.
6.) Grocery Carts
Those cloth covers to create a barrier between your kids and the carts seem to be all the rage. And they may be on to something. A 2007 University of Arizona study found fecal bacteria on almost 2/3 of the shopping carts they tested. To protect yourself, take advantage of those disinfectant wipes most grocery stores offer at the front door now. And try and skip the free samples while you shop -- all that does is transmit any germs directly between your hands and mouth.
7.) Airplane Bathrooms
This is probably the hardest one to protect against. Everything from faucets to doorknobs in an airplane bathroom tends to have some bacteria attached. The best microbiologist Charles Gerba, Ph.D. can recommend is to clean your hand thoroughly with a hand sanitizer once you leave the restroom, and try not to directly touch any surfaces.
8.) Doctors' Offices
It makes sense you would find a lot of germs here, with plenty of people heading to the doctor once they are sick. Try bringing your own books or magazines when you have an appointment, and grab your own tissues. Once you're in the waiting room, leave two chairs between you and the next patient if you can to lower your chances of picking up their germs should they cough or sneeze.

In case you don't follow sports, Super Bowl Sunday is this weekend. Naturally, we've been preparing by picking out the perfect cute and casual outfits to rock at all the amazing parties. And of course, we picked a color scheme that reflects the two teams playing (The SF 49rs who are red and gold and the Baltimore Ravens who are purple and black, so you can impress your friends).
The second we put the team colors on two of our models, they started to hash it out to decide who would win beforehand. Don't worry, no one was actually hurt. We called it a tie between the two models, so you'll just have to tune into the Bowl on Sunday to find out who really wins!
Baltimore Ravens Outfit Details:
graphic 55 sweatshirt, pocketed long sleeve denim top, basic skinny jeggings, metallic combo wedge sneakers
San Francisco 49rs Outfit Details:
distressed star print sweater, high-waisted jeans, metallic loafers, textured faux leather handbag
What's your favorite game day outfit?
Those jeans are so good…love these looks!

Hate to admit it, but living in SEC country - its too much, they all think Missouri is going to get rolled stepping up to a big boy conference. I think they struggle long term, but wouldn't mind them winning some games against the top teams in the SEC. Hate Mizzou, but hate the SEC more.
same goes for me
although i had to root for florida today

Self proclaimed 2012 CF Newcomer of the Year
Nope, hate aggy, hate Mizzou. Now that they are part of the SEC, I hate them even more.
Keepers of the Faith -- The Unknown
I hope they get crushed. the "we are Mizzou" videos fuel my hatred. Those arrogant bastards
agreed, Aggie sucking will continue to help the Big 12. Aggie being good makes the SEC relevant in the talent rich recruiting grounds of Texas. Iowa State need not compete with new teams like the Mississippi Teams, KY, etc for the overlooked players in Texas.
I despise Missouri even more after going down to the slaughter in Columbia last year.
They are the nearest SEC team to Iowa State. I think its to our benefit that they lose consistently.
No ******* way, besides my hate for Iowa, and Nebtard, Misery is next in line. I hope the stadium collapses tonight due to meth riddled fatties in Columbia.

You cruel bastage. At least a meteor would be quick. That's my choice for who to cheer for in any Nebby/Aggie/Mizzou game.....SMOD!*

"Correct me if I'm wrong, Scotty.......but if I kill all the golfers, they'll lock me up and throw away the key!" Carl Spackler
The SEC will own every conference strength argument until they lose a NC. Because of that, I Mizzou gets pounded every SEC game. I do not want them taking more Iowa HS players.
sorry to open the wound, but just can't help going for them against one of the vaunted SEC powers tonight. Talk radio in Arkansas is all about how inferior the Big 12 is and they won't be able to hang
I thought I could find a little ex-Big 8/12 rooting interest for Mizzou ... until I saw those helmets.
1) Can't stand missouri
2) Have a good friend who goes to Georgia
With that being said, GO DAWGS!

They do not play in the Big 12 anymore soooo **** them. I can't stand the SEC but the media circus that pumps up the SEC won't ever stop. It would really blow to live in SEC country and have to listen to that **** all the time. The Big 12 is just as good but no one wants to talk about us (ESPN). I would suggest moving from Arkansas.
Anybody see that ONE MIZZOU commercial? Looked kind of familiar.

Newest in the author's series of great composer's stories. Ratherthan telling the whole life story, each of the picture books concentrates on a famous composition by a composer. This tells about the Venetian orphanage where Vivaldi taught music to young girls. His fanciful stories did not please the governors and he was sent away. But he returned later with his most memorable composition, the Four Seasons. The author's notes indicate that it is not known for certain when his masterpiece was composed, though it is believed to have been in Mantua, she he worked after leaving the orphanage. Weaving stories to the great music will hopefully open the doors to new listening for another generation. 7 & up.

1969 Camaro RS - From Ordinary To LegendaryWritten on April 2, 2012
With just 29,533 miles on its odometer, and having never been restored, this Azure Turquoise, 327-powered '69 Camaro RS has to be one of the most pristine and original '69 Camaro sport coupes in existence.
Now owned by muscle car collector Charles Lillard of Woodland, California, it was originally purchased by Edward R. Hawkins of La Mirada, California. He bought the Camaro on December 12, 1968, from Don Steve's Chevrolet of La Habra (which a few years later would become drag racer John Force's first corporate sponsor when Force was driving GM-bodied floppers). The RS stickered at $3,889.20 and was just one step up from a basic Camaro sport coupe.
The base V-8 engine available in the Camaro, as listed in the 1969 Chevrolet Dealer's Book, was a code FL 327ci Turbo-Fire V-8 engine. With 8.75:1 compression and Rochester two-barrel carburetion, the engine was rated at 210 hp. That year the 327 two-barrel V-8 could be had with either the M35 Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission or the M40 Turbo Hydramatic three-speed automatic, which this particular car has.
Other standard equipment found on the Camaro included self-adjusting, 9½-inch Safety Master four-wheel drum brakes, independent coil-spring spherical-joint front suspension, and an 8 1/8-inch, 2.73-geared live rear axle hung on single-leaf springs. This car wore 14x6 steel rims wrapped by a set of optional Goodyear E78-14 bias-ply whitewall tires.
The Camaro's standard black vinyl interior features Strato-Bucket seats, front shoulder belts, air conditioning, a center console, an AM push-button radio, a cigarette lighter, and Soft Ray tinted glass. The RS's code Z23 Special Interior Group included a (simulated) woodgrain-accented dash, an Assist Grip woodgrain-accented steering wheel, a woodgrain console, and bright pedal trim.
Because this Camaro was ordered with the Z22 Rally Sport option, is has the '69-only see-through headlight doors, which frame the Rally Sport grille and RS emblem. It should also be noted that the code 55-55 monotone Azure Turquoise color was specifically ordered by Mr. Hawkins to commemorate his 55th birthday.
In this day and age, when a once-ordinary car can become legendary, this RS has become quite collectible and has changed hands at least eight times in the past four decades.
In June 2008, collector Scott Seebold commissioned Steve Shauger and Bret Merrimen, both from the American Camaro Association's Board of Directors of Vintage Certification, to inspect and certify the RS. The ACA's judging process for these cars is nothing short of intense, yet remains totally objective and is intended to promote the preservation of first- and second-generation Camaros. Five specific areas were examined: the engine compartment, exterior body, interior body, underbody, and trunk. This Camaro was awarded 2,577.72 points out of a possible 2,819.78 in the Vintage Legend division, which covers first- and second-generation Camaros that are 80 to 90 percent unrestored.
Certain blemishes, like the surface rust on the hood release, flaking paint on the valve covers, and scratches on the wheels, certainly affected the overall points. But they also underscored the originality of this vehicle and should be left as-is, to maintain its time-machine nature.

Camaro's 14x6 two piece-steel rims came with either P06 trim rings and standard pie-pan hubcaps (like those used on the COPO Camaros and Novas), or P01 full wheel covers. The scratches on the wheels indicate this car had the full wheel covers originally. This car has also been upgraded from the original E78-14 bias-ply tires to a set of F70-14 Goodyear Polyglas reproductions.

The University of St. Thomas women's basketball team dropped an 89-62 decision to Wiley College on Feb. 25. UST finished the regular season with a 15-15 overall record and 11-11 in the Red River Athletic Conference.
Amber Arceneaux-Francis led the Celts with 26 points and 14 rebounds while Maghen Lormand chipped in with 11 points.
"Our effort was better tonight," said Head Coach Mike Ricks. "We really picked it up – especially on the boards, but obviously we still have some work to do if we want to beat a team like Wiley."
Next up for the Celts is their first-ever appearance in the Red River Athletic Conference Tournament, where they will play Louisiana State University-Shreveport at 10 a.m. on March 1.
Ricks knows his team will need to play its best game of the year if it plans to advance.
"It's win or go home," Ricks said. "We will have to play a complete game on both sides of the ball if we want to win, but I believe we are capable of doing just that."

I forgot to mention, I absolutely love the .204 Ruger for predators/varmints. It would not work for blacktail however.
It has ballistics very similar to a 22-250 in the same size bullet. If you guys haven't looked into it you should really check it out. Most fun centerfire I've ever shot.

Last night Fila along with Lord & Taylor and TENNIS magazine officially launched James Blake's Thomas Reynolds collection in NYC.
The evening began with a meet-and-greet with James on the main floor followed by a VIP party held on the retailer's rooftop. It was an absolutely spectacular evening under the lights of The Big Apple and featured big beats by DJ Sky Nellor and the ubiquitous Honey Deuce, the official cocktail for this year's US Open. Guests included people from the worlds of tennis, media, fashion, and music. James' coach Brian Barker was in attendance along with brother Thomas and momma Betty.
My friend Erin from Purple Gate Design attended the party with me and we were lucky (or persistent?) enough to grab a picture with the man of the evening:
And - SURPRISE, SURPRISE - Kimmie Clijsters made an unexpected appearance and I, of course, had to have a picture with the former US Open champ. Can I say her heels were sick and she was much taller than I expected? Fine, I might be short. But, whatevs, it's KIMMIE!
I also got to hang with Erwin + Nick of Tennis Served Fresh and Karen of Global Village Tennis News. It's always great to put a face to a name.
Make sure to pop on over to Fila.com to see more of the Thomas Reynolds collection. And, a big shout out to the Fila team for the invite!

I did I did!!! It was such a great surprise. The Fila PR rep said she was in the office yesterday and they asked if her if she wanted to attend the event and she said yeah.ReplyDelete
She looked great - I love her hair longer like it is now. She really has a strong presence in person and was very gracious with people (like me) who wanted to take a pic with her.
Just like I always imagined her to be! *still super jelly*ReplyDelete

|New art center gets community excited for art
|Written by Darci Tomky
Prairie Winds Art Center of Colorado made its debut at a community reception during Holyoke's Country Christmas Monday, Dec. 2.
The former Masonic Hall at 443 S. Interocean Ave. in Holyoke is being transformed into an all-inclusive art place. Remodeling is still in the works, but Monday night community members were able to browse an art gallery showcasing local artists.
Organizers said the art center is the vision of a group of community-minded citizens of Phillips County. They recognize the role that the arts and culture play in people's lives and the void that exists when the arts are absent.
The idea of the art center is to "bring art to the forefront in our county," said organizer Teresa Mailander. "We have a ton of talent."
Monday night's reception for the Prairie Winds Art Center was a chance for community members to see the new in-the-works facility. From left, organizers Nancy Dee and Teresa Mailander visit with Gloria Bergner at Dee's watercolor station.
Other organizers include Nancy Dee, Theresa Conklin, Kathy Wernsman and Julie Worley. It is not an official governing board but simply a group of individuals from both Holyoke and Haxtun who are artists themselves or business people, all of whom regularly participate in events that promote the arts and who acknowledge the need for additional art-centered activities for both youth and adults.
The art gallery in the upper level of Prairie Winds Art Center will showcase work as well as house a gift shop for the display and purchase of completed pieces. The building's lower level will be used for workshops, classes and a studio space for artists to work.
Original plans were to use the former Melissa Memorial Hospital building, but organizers feel the former Masonic Hall is a great space and a manageable size. However, right now, it's not a finished product and is still in the beginning stages. "It's tremendous repurposing" of the building, said Mailander.
While showcasing art and educating artists is on the forefront of the plans, another idea includes an artist-in-residency program, where an artist would stay for a period of time to work at the center, making it available for people to not only browse the gallery but also watch as they work.
Haxtun artist Theresa Conklin, at left, demonstrates portrait painting with the help of Katie Swan. Organizers hope Prairie Winds Art Center will not only be a gallery but also a place for events like art workshops and artist-in-residency programs.
The gallery will be a great place to not only house local work but also traveling art exhibits. "Artists are very generous with their work and their time," said Mailander.
In the future, the facility could also be used for other branches of the arts, such as literary arts, movement arts, music and theater production.
"Art is an economic development driver," said Worley, who is the executive director for Phillips County Economic Development.
Prairie Winds Art Center organizers feel the center and its activities will give rise to new economic collaborations and will be designated as the art and cultural center of the region.
It will be establishing 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, and artists and volunteers will be collaborating to run the art center. Organizers will also be looking for grant funds as well as donations.
Sales of 2014 desk calendars are helping launch the new art center. Each month showcases a piece of art from a local artist/student, with information and comments from that artist on the back. To purchase a calendar, contact Mailander at 970-580-1939.
Monday's reception just the beginning
Around 130 community members stopped by the Prairie Winds reception on Monday night. They were able to browse the art gallery, purchase local art pieces and munch on refreshments.
Conklin was on hand to demonstrate portrait painting with the help of Katie Swan as the subject of her painting. Dee also set up a station for a watercolor demonstration.
Joe Hall and Lou Kraus provided music for the Christmas reception.
"It was a great start," said Mailander, noting organizers were very pleased with everyone's reaction.
Monday evening was a great chance for community members to see what a valuable resource Prairie Winds Art Center will be for the area. There are several ways people can get involved.
—Be a host. Interested and responsible people are needed to greet visitors, explain a little about the art center, show the gallery and make sales transactions. They don't have to be an artist but might just like being around art!
—Take a class. The art center needs people who want to learn about art or handcrafts. People can make a suggestion for classes and sign up for the email list to stay informed on future activities.
—Display artwork. Let organizers know which month works, and they'll provide information about how they trade gallery space each month for some hosting/studio time.
—Teach a class. Volunteer to share one's craft with others by teaching a class in the workshop space downstairs.
—Watch an artist work. The community is invited to stop by when the "Open" sign is out front as they might catch the host working on a project in the studio space.
Local aritsts Sheryl Farnsworth and Christina Martinez are on hand Monday night at the debut of the Prairie Winds Art Center art gallery, located at the former Masonic Hall, 443 S. Interocean Ave. in Holyoke.
Events planned in 2014
Even though the art center is still in the works, it already has events on the schedule for January and February.
Dee will be offering creativity workshops for junior high students through adults on three Saturdays in January from 9 a.m.-noon each time. "Know Your Paints" will be Jan. 4, "Color and Feeling with Artist Vassily Kandinsky" on Jan. 18 and "Discover Your Connection to Nature with Water-Based Mixed Mediums" on Jan. 25.
A "Wine, Dine and Art Party for You and Your Sweetheart" is set for Friday, Feb. 14 at 6:30 p.m. Contact Wernsman at 970-520-0639 or Conklin at 970-580-6378 to RSVP.

Premier Street Rod 1947 to 1954 Chevrolet Cab - Forward Into The PastWritten by on April 24, 2012 Premier Street Rod's All New '47 to '54 Chevy Cab Assemblies
For years, it seems as though the street rod guys have had all the luck when it comes to the availability of reproduction bodies in both fiberglass and/or steel. All those lucky rodders had to do was open up a copy of STREET RODDER or ROD & CUSTOM and they'd find multiple sources for brand new Model A's, Deuce roadsters and coupes, and countless other year and style reproduction bodies and body components. Over the last decade, we classic truckers have had access to a lot of reproduction parts and body repair panels but now we can share in the good fortune with the availability of brand-new, complete, all-steel '47-54 Chevrolet 3100 cab assemblies from the craftsmen at Premier Street Rods of Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
Here we're going to give you a glimpse of what goes into assembling one of their Real Deal Steel truck cabs. Premier Street Rods' '47-54 truck bodies are assembled at their factory in Arizona with 100-percent fresh 18-gauge steel. The quality and craftsmanship of these brand-new cabs surpass that of even the originals as they've used the best components, the most modern technology, and professional craftsmanship to ensure their cabs are the best available today. Each and every truck cab is manufactured one at a time using high-grade steel with modern welding techniques, and the individual sheetmetal components are completely EDP coated for superior rust prevention as well.
If your old cab is to the point of retirement, or you've just found an old barnyard survivor, instead of spending immense amounts of time doing body work yourself or paying upward of $100.00 an hour in labor time (not to mention the additional cost of material and repair parts) to a professional restoration shop, why not just replace it with a brand-new (higher quality) all-steel cab for the incredible price of $6,995.00? This is far less than you'd invest in a shaky old rust bucket. It seems to me that the choice is clear. That said, let's take a look at one of these awesome cab assemblies going together.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
The morning I arrived at Premier, I started out my visit with a nickel-tour of the facility by Premier Street Rods owners Rob and Kerry Logsdon. Out in the production facility stood at least half a dozen completed pickup cabs ready for shipment to many of the company's nationwide distributors, as well as a couple that were assembled but still waiting for a few finishing touches (Premier performs much of the body prep prior to shipping).Before the guys (Rob and Kerry Logsdon's sons Ross and Brad) began a fresh assembly process they were kind enough to take the extra time to lay out the cab components so I could see what a complete cab consists of component-wise. There's actually more parts involved than one can see in a completed cab assembly.Consistency and quality are ensured by the use of an extensively engineered multi-piece jig assembly for each assembly step.Premier also is equipped with, and uses, a combination lift and rotisserie, which allows perfect access to every facet of assembly. Here, the lower portion of the jig and the main floor pan are shown being located and bolted into place on the rotisserie.With the jig base and floorpan assembly located and secured in place, the next step is the installation of the first of two door frame and roof section jigs.With the two side sections of the cab jig secured, the balance of the upper jig components are located and tightened in place.
The time and engineering spent by the company in manufacturing the assembly jig, and the high-quality sheetmetal cab components themselves are, along with the expertise of Ross and Bradley Logsdon, the primary reason these pickup cabs are as high or perhaps even higher quality than original OEM assembled vintage cabs.With the floor and door opening components clamped into place the next step was the location of the upper forward roof panel support and A-pillar sections.The upper cowl panel is located next and clamped into place to both the jig and the door opening/inner cowl side panels.With just four or five components clamped into place at this point, the guys step back and make a slew of measurements and slight adjustments to make sure the components are perfectly located and secured before continuing.Satisfied that panel positioning and anchoring is perfect, the guys proceed to resistance-weld critical points using large industrial resistance spot welding equipment identical to the equipment used in many OEM assembly plants. As I said earlier, Premier Street Rods' assembly methods and techniques mirror those of any OEM manufacturing concerns with the added insurance of ample time for quality workmanship versus the assembly speed focus of the typical assembly line environment.With the primary lower spot welds made at the floorpan and lower door opening panels, attention is reverted back to the upper portion of the cab. The outer A-pillar panels are positioned, clamped, and spotted in place.Next, Ross and Brad turn their attention to the firewall panel—test fitting it and checking its positioning and making sure any and all seams are correct and uniform.
Once the front brace is attached and the test fitting of the firewall panel completed, the guys remove the firewall panel to provide access to the weld points of the upper and outer cowl panels.Again, check out the OEM manufacturer-style resistance welder. Premier utilizes this spot welder for the majority of the welds on the cab assembly, which actually makes the Premier assembly structurally superior to the original.With the internal cowl top and side welds complete, Brad repositions the firewall panel from the outside while Ross checks and adjusts the fit of the toe-board to the lower firewall seam.Once satisfied that all is well, the toe-board and firewall are clamped together and resistance-welded together as shown.Next, the guys turn their attention to the rear cab wall. The rear cab section is made up of two pieces, the full lower panel and the upper window opening panel. Experience has taught Ross and Brad that partially assembling the two off the jig eases its initial placement.Once the rear cab panels have been joined (off the jig), Brad muscles it into place getting it ready for precise fitting and welding.
Roof panel attachment is begun from the front to ensure the windshield openings are perfectly aligned. At this point, the panel is securely clamped into place so it won't shift when the guys begin to fit the rear section of the roof panel to the cab rear wall.After the roof panel is perfectly aligned around its complete circumference, Brad switches over to the MIG to run some continuous beads at particular panel joints which require more than spot-welds for structural strength.With the vast majority of the assembly and welding completed, the guys then begin to make their fine adjustments and semi-finish work. As I said earlier, these folks are sticklers for detail ensuring that each and every cab assembly is as close to perfect as possible.Entering the homestretch, Ross and Brad install the dash panel and begin to install and adjust the fit of the doors.Once the doors have been hung, the guys perform another complete inspection of the cab by double and triple checking that each and every panel is perfectly aligned and all welds are complete and ground smooth where appropriate. At this point, the cab is ready for final finishing and priming before being shipped—and the guys are ready to begin the next cab.

Foxboro, MA (Sports Network) - After putting the New England Patriots back in
a very familiar position, Tom Brady now finds himself in an unprecedented
place in the record books.
The star quarterback threw for 344 yards and three touchdowns to lead New
England to its second straight trip to the AFC Championship Game, with the
defending conference champions advancing with a 41-28 triumph over the Houston
Texans in Sunday's Divisional Playoff from Gillette Stadium.
Brady completed 25-of-40 passes without an interception en route to his 17th
career postseason victory as a starting signal-caller, moving him past Hall of
Famer Joe Montana and into sole possession of first place on the NFL's all-
time list in that category.
Shane Vereen hauled in two of Brady's scoring strikes and accumulated 83 yards
on five catches, while also adding a rushing touchdown to help get the
Patriots back in the AFC title game for the seventh time overall under the
combination of Brady and head coach Bill Belichick.
New England will host Baltimore, a 38-35 double-overtime winner over top-
seeded Denver in Saturday's other Divisional bout, next Sunday in a rematch of
the 2011 conference championship. The Patriots bested the Ravens in a 23-20
thriller in last year's game.
The Patriots rolled up 457 total yards on Houston's highly regarded defense
despite playing most of the way without Pro Bowl tight end Rob Gronkowski, who
exited the contest on New England's second offensive series with a reported
re-fracture of his surgically repaired left forearm, an injury that sidelined
him for five weeks during the regular season.
Along with Vereen, Wes Welker helped offset Gronkowski's absence by amassing
131 yards on eight receptions.
Matt Schaub finished with 343 yards and two touchdowns with one interception
on 34-of-51 passing for the Texans, who saw their season end in the Divisional
Round for a second consecutive year. Arian Foster compiled 153 yards from
scrimmage and scored both a rushing and receiving touchdown in the loss,
Houston's fourth in six outings since beginning the season 11-1.

No, it's not your eyes. Those are stripes. On a sock.
So, at least one of my tennis fashion dreams has finally come true. The other one is, of course, shorty-shorts on the boys, and that one is even starting to happen (hello, legs).
H&M has already come a long way from where they started with Tomas Berdych earlier this year in Oz. And it's a different look for Big Berd, who always leaned towards classic looks with Nike. We've definitely moved into more fashionable territory.
Oh yeah. He won his second round match, too.

Out of the (Lunch) Box
When it comes to packing lunches for kids or adults, our readers can be pretty clever!
Read the tips below before you fill another brown bag or lunchbox.
Spread a very light layer of whipped cream cheese on bread before putting in a mayonnaise-based filling like tuna or chicken salad. This prevents the salad from "weeping" into the bread. No more soggy sandwiches! If you are pressed for time in the morning, use this trick to make sandwiches the night before that will stay fresh. —Jan Pardue, Naples, Florida
Years ago, I was given a food sealer as a gift, and now I make individual packets of food for my kids' lunches. When I am in a baking mood, I bake up a big batch of something. Then, using my food sealer, I seal individual sized servings and put these packets in a large bucket in the freezer. In the mornings when I am making lunches, I select a different dessert item each day. The pail usually contains all sorts of items, giving the kids a good variety. I have also done lots of snack foods this way. If it can be sealed and frozen, it qualifies! The ideas are endless! —Sandra Linton, Spruce Grove, Alberta
When you are putting a piece of sheet cake in a lunch box, cut it in half horizontally, then put the top half upside down on the bottom half. This puts the icing in the middle, so you don't lose it. —Wanda Hannan, Burlington, Kentucky
I packed lunches for my 2 young nephews with a baseball theme. I glued baseball cards on both sides of each lunch sack then filled them with their favorite sandwich, fruits, etc. I made sugar cookies in the shape of baseball bats and mitts, and I tucked in a pack of baseball cards with a note attached that read, "Good for one ice cream cone and a round of baseball at Aunt Nell's house." —Nella Parker, Hersey, Michigan
I have been including a word of the day in my daughters' lunches for years. I choose a word from dictionary.com and print it off. As first, my daughters gave me the "Oh, Mom!" look, but now they and their friends look forward to improving their vocabularies and having a little fun at lunch. They even have friends approach them as ask what the word of the day is! —Robin Garske, Saginaw, Michigan
I have three busy boys to feed, so lunch boxes are a must in our home. One thing that I do to make their lunch special is to make their favorite sandwich, cut it into a circle using a sandwich or biscuit cutter, and then paint the tops of the sandwiches. I take a very small cup and mix a drop or two of food coloring with a few drops of water. Then I stir with a paintbrush used only for this purpose, and I paint the bread. I have painted hearts, Christmas trees, and letters of the alphabet, their names, shamrocks, smiley faces and more. These sandwiches are always the talk of the lunchroom and definitely won't be traded! —Tina Belock, Corpus Christi, Texas
Napkins are often a forgotten essential in the lunchbox. Each day, I put a different decorated paper napkin in the kids' lunchboxes. They appreciate it and love watching for new designs. I pick up a pack whenever I see a sale, so I always have a few packs on hand! For holidays, I tuck in a cute matching plate! —Cindy Harrell, Dallas, Georgia
I buy a gallon of chocolate milk each week and fill 12-ounce bottles half full and freeze them. Then every morning, my 13 year-old son pulls one out of the freezer and fills it up the rest of the way. The milk stays cold until lunchtime. My son loves the chocolate milk, and I feel confident that he's getting a healthy lunch! —Ginger Clausen, Portland, Oregon
To provide me with a hot lunch, my mother would nearly fill a thermos bottle with hot soup then add a hotdog. She would put a hotdog bun in my lunch bucket. When it was time for lunch, I had a hotdog and soup lunch along with a couple of cookies. —Guy Copeman, Billings, Montana
My husband works long hours as a sales manager for a local car dealership, so he doesn't get to see our 10-month-old daughter as often as he would like. In the mornings, I take a quick snapshot with our digital camera of our daughter playing or doing something funny. Then I print it out and include it in his lunch with a note that says something like, "Hurry home, Daddy." He loves being surprised with a new picture each day and has started a collection of his "paper bag photos." This way, he gets to see her all day long. —Brittani Kistner, Columbia, South Carolina
I have packed a lunch for my husband for most of the 29 years we have been married. I search our newspaper and save comics and short articles that pertain to our lives. Each day, he receives a note of encouragement plus a comic or short article about sports, health issues, finances, vacation ideas, etc. —Lynne Lande, Auburn, Washington
My husband packed my lunch for work when I was teaching with all of my favorite childhood lunch treats. It made my day when I opened the bag and discovered a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, Cheetos, a Twinkie and a sweet love note. It was so special that he remembered such a small detail about my childhood. —Angela Ellett, Branson, Missouri

(SportsNetwork.com) - The Chicago Blackhawks will play their final home game
until March on Sunday night and will do so against a streaking Winnipeg Jets
club that is desperately trying to get into the playoff race.
The Blackhawks have slumped as of late with a 3-2-4 record in their past nine
games. That has cut their lead atop the Central Division over the St. Louis
Blues to just one point and they now trail the NHL-leading Anaheim Ducks by
seven points in the overall conference standings.
Chicago lost in regulation on Thursday, dropping a 2-1 decision to the
Minnesota Wild. Antti Raanta yielded two first-period goals and made 17 saves
in all, while Patrick Kane's goal with less than a minute left to play
prevented a shutout loss.
"When you give up two goals in the first period and you're behind all the
time, it's much harder to play," Raanta remarked.
Kane scored his 24th goal of the season but also his first since Dec. 28. He
has six goals and 13 points in eight career meetings with the Jets.
Chicago is expected to have defenseman Duncan Keith back in the lineup tonight
after he missed his first game of the season on Thursday due to illness. The
blueliner is third in the NHL with 43 assists.
No. 1 goaltender Corey Crawford will get the start in Chicago's last home game
until March 1. The Blackhawks, who are 18-3-7 as the host this season, begin a
seven-game road trip on Tuesday that leads into the Olympic break and
concludes in the first game back following the Winter Games.
Crawford has never lost to the Jets franchise, going 3-0-0 with a 1.67 goals
against average.
That is part of Chicago's dominance of Winnipeg as the 'Hawks have won seven
straight and 12 of the 15 meetings. That includes a 5-1-0 record all-time at
home in this series.
The Jets franchise has not beaten the Blackhawks since the Atlanta Thrashers
claimed a 3-2 victory in Chicago on Oct. 27, 2007, but comes into this game
having won five of six games under head coach Paul Maurice since he replaced
Claude Noel on Jan. 12.
Winnipeg had a four-game win streak snapped with Thursday's loss to San Jose,
then failed to hold a 4-1 lead on Saturday night versus the Toronto Maple
Leafs. However, Dustin Byfuglien scored 2:44 into overtime to give the Jets a
5-4 win.
Byfuglien controlled a loose puck in the neutral zone, skated to the point and
fired a wrister over Jonathan Bernier's glove for the deciding tally, his 12th
goal and 40th point of the season.
"I think that's been our big thing around here, just sticking with the game
plan and not getting away from it," Byfuglien said. "Even if we get down or
are chasing the score, you stick with it, you're bound to get your shots and
opportunities to score. It's just a matter of doing it when you get the
Bryan Little and Blake Wheeler both had a goal and an assist, while Byfuglien
added a helper. Zach Bogosian and Mark Scheifele notched goals and Ondrej
Pavelec made 24 saves for the Jets, who are still last in the Central Division

This is the upcoming new 2009 Royal Enfield Classic 500
Quote from: ace.cafe on December 07, 2008, 09:27:04 pmThis is the upcoming new 2009 Royal Enfield Classic 500Ace, does the image choice indicate you're leaning toward the red bike? I am; but under the condition of making the call after I see this color up close and personal in the coming year!
ace.cafe thanks for the picture side by side. to my untrained eye there dose not seem to be much difference between two. I know the engine is different but other than that thy look the same to me. Do you know if the new bike will have a dual seat? Thanks for your help. Monty
Ace, that pillion is something to be desired. NOT! What is that a sleeping bag roll? There's a dark place in the woodshed for that log! I think you would need a two up seat to bolt on when you need it and the solo when you don't. What say you?
It's a solo seat for me, too! I took 110 lbs. off the bike by replacing the dual seat.
Prof_stack, you got it right! Are you a Mathematics professor?
