[Correipondenco of the Grant County Heratrl.J LiPoiNTE, July 13, 1843. Mr. Editor My second leuer lo you, des- ionriiey to itat place was dated nl Cbinpewa Falls, which I presume has reached Ibe Herald before this time. Having at last reached this place after 50 days of hard and drea- ry travel it becomes proper to close this narra- tive so far as I am concerned. Of these we have not had to exceed ten days wilhou'l rain and of the heaviest kind. The whole counlry, has been literally inundated, and, as if the ele- ments warred againsl the first attempt to1 iuvade Ihe counlry with teams, every thing seemed to contribute to impede our progress except our own unconquerable resolution to accomplish what we had undnaken. The Indians say they never knew so rain in one season, and the waters are so high lhat they expect to lose their Hire crops, worth t'u them more than their an- nuity (or the fear. For the Srsl Iwenly five miles north of Chip- pewa Falls we had prairie, and in one day we travelled twenty miles, bul the weather was ex- tremely hot and the flies inlolerable. This drove Ihe canle back the night following (the twenty mites) lo Mr. Warren's, which took the next day lo regain them. Al the same lime our hor- ses, covered wilh their own blood from Ihe slings of the numerous flies and musquitoes, ntiempied to make their escape from torment end return also. Two out of four reached Mr. Warren's, but my two having ropes forty feel long lo them got fasi in the brush, as we suppose, and could nol be found. After two days search we had to leave them to ihe cruel merries of ihe flies, mns- quiloes, nnd wolves. Benjanin offered a reward to a half breed, who is well acquainted wilh ihe counlry, if he would find them, but whether he succeeded or not we have nol heard. After Ihis bach sei I rode tny Interpreter's horse and he and Benjamin joarneyefl on foot, or Mr. Whiuiker's mare. Our journey ihe rest of Ihe way was ihtough thick, Heavy limber, wilh occasionally an opening or barren. We passed the Red Pipe Stone Moun- tain, near Red Cedar Lake, leaving the Moun- tain of the Lake and Lac Che-tac( Pelican Lake) 10 ihe right. The latter Lake is properly the hend of Red Cedar River, improperly called Munomonee. The water about 40 miles through a chain of these lakes which lie north and south before it leaves the Red Cednr Lake, al which place, and where ihe river Is first form- ed il i.-: aboul eighty yards wide, wilh smoolh, gravel bottom, and at ibe time of our crossing was three feel deep being uncommonly high. The land over which we travelled is rolling, of a good soil, bearing a heavy growlh of herbage and grass, bul full of "boulder nigaer Leads." I saw but two pi ices beiween iheFalls ofChippeva and the Luke lhat the rock assu- med a square or workable form: lhat was at the Pipe Sione Mountain and at ihe Falls of Bad River; on ihe lake shore they assume a worka- ble loino, of course. The limber through Ihis whole district varies bul ihe greatest amount is Pine, and Susar ma- ple. Tlie spruce, balsam, fir, while eedjr, oak and while bircli are abundant; anil a good sup- ply ol'olher northern limbers. Over I he entire distance from Prairie dn to this place lliere are bui three creams ihat can ever stop a Black River, Lo Clare and Ihe Chippewn. The Lo Clare, will du il only in ex'reme hiah waier. In low water ca- noes cannot navigate it, and the road crosses Black and Chippewa rivers at Ihe where boats can be had to lerry if the rivers artf'not low enough lo ford, which'is olien Die case, AS we estimated ilie distances each day I make 11 4sM miles from Prairie du Chien lo tnis place, but I think il will nt: be ovet "00 when the roacl is corrected and regularly laid out. Ills movt likely lhat we lite distance loo hijfh Indeed, we differed in opinion as lo ihtm and some place ihe di-lnnces much lower than I did It may run up to 320. li ii proper for me lo say thai I was obliged to leave the teams abont 100 miles from Ihis place with an Indian and a breed to guide itiem and sent from here nn Indian to meet Ihem They have nol arrived, but are expected in a few days. We bassed aboul 20 Lakes this side the Chip- pewa Uivcr; and 1 am told that any other route would pass as manv. These'lalies are among the most benuiiful lever saw. The water is clenr as deep and ihe botioms cov- ered with boulder rock; ibe same as ihe earth on Ihe sides ol ihem. The mosl beautiful of lakes In Ihe wliich is ten miles Ions and averages three wide, and connec- td wilh it emptying in or out nre about a dozen smaller ones. The ouilet of this is about ihirty fee! wide and near 15 Inches deep where we crossed, having n smoolh (jjavel bouorn and low bar.ks. The sight of the Indian village at this ford, and is covered wilh blue grass. It is a lev- el, sandy plain 50 feel above the la.ke, lies be- iween iwo Lake and was ndmilted by our com- pany lo b: a more beautiful site for a lown than lhat of Madison. Tbe numerous lakes above alluded lo abound with excellent fish; many of them have no visi- ble outlet and bill Mule inlet. As near as the eye could determine the whole of them Irom Red Csdar to Loni; Lake which empties into Lake Supurtor by Bad River, a distance of about 100 miles, are upon one common level which forms the siimmii level beiween ihe Mississippi and Superior. The Sa-ma-kaw-gan branch of ihe Saint Croix runs beiween ihem, but heads in a lake on the same apparent, level. To connect Ihis entire chain oflakeslor 100 miles, by using ihe valley of ihe ria-ma-kaw-gan, would not le- quire over twenty miles of digging, and in no instance much if any over 50 feet deep, and such depth as that but snort. If ever a canal is made through ihis region this is the mosl feasible ronle I have been able lo discover. From the Missis- sippi op ihe Chippewn and Red Cedar lo ihe lake of lhat name, perhaps 100 miles, thence inrongh the chain of small lakes above describ- ed. 100 miles mure, Ami thence down ihe onilel of Long Lake, by Bad River to ilie lake, say, 100 more, making ihe entire distance not to exceed 300 miles. The entire rise and fall in this rim e, I think, will nol exceed 350 feet, if over 300 and as the Mississippi at St. Peters and this lake are about upon a level the fail each way from the summit is about the same. The Bad River which ihs Indians now call Mash-ke-ze-be, 'Swamp is the largest emptying into th'is Lake from Wisconsin Ter- ritory, except except the Saint Louis or Fon dn Lac River. Il is 100 yards wide at Ihe month lance Ihe water is deep and on a level wilh the lake: but except a narrow sand hill at the lake shore for three miles np ihis river it is a contin- ued swamp or marsh. At a point five miles up the land is suitable for building, and a canal of one mile would connect the river with the bay south of this place. The Agent of ihe copper mines has establish- ed his head quarters at Copper Harbor, a litlle cove on Ihe west shore of Cape Ke-we-we-nan, where, I am told a ciiy is already laic! out. and the building ol stores, offices, and houses com- menced. A large number of miners are in that region exploring. The fdtnons Copper Rock proved lo be about five feet long and four wide, averaging ten inches ihtck. li is claimed by J. R. Vineyard, and it is supposed will cost him a- bout Jo per pound to cm It np and get it away. I have heard of no special discoveries as yet, but all are sanguine of success as no doubt exists irjai ihe cimniry in copper and silver. We aie now "living on Ihe fal of ihe" lake. Fish, of various kinds, fresh from ihe waier, go flouncing inlo ilie pots but gel slill before they reach ihe table. I here Jn ample lime for ihe business of ihe Agency. The payments will not probably be miide before ihe firsi of September, when I ex- pect a general gaihering of Indians and white men. Unless I am furnished wilh a sirong mil- itary force 1 fear some serions trouble with the half I have long since apprised Govern- ment of ihe danger, but ihe heads of affairs seem unwilling lo believe lhai Ihere are breakers a- head, and I as unwilling to risk of mon- ey aod goods, ihreatened wilh robbery, lo avoid Ihe expense of a guard.

In 1833, a treaty concluded, at between Ihe United and the mie and other of whereby all the tract of laud north of lllinoti fliate line, comprising the South-eastern porUbn frf consin, was ceded to the United In that treaty it stipulated lhat the .__ might retain po.ses.tan of said tract Ultrl ehanic., jual commencing bnainera, might bnl in the mean lime the Government hid "in a srnal) capital to a.sisl them and enable privilege ol surveying it.

In ldH3, Chicago wns laid out inje lots, and some of the best of them sold high as fifty dollars, such nr are now well worth ten thousand dollars, it began lo inoreaae in popu- lation considerably. Two or three steamboats came up that year wilh emigrants and goods. In 1334, a greater number of boats came Other dies for villages upon the Lake we're le taken possession ot. rest, Milwaukie and Racine. Among ttie In November, 1834, Capt. Gilberl Knapp, who had formerly commanded a Kevenue Cut- ler in the United SUtes nerviee, came in a schooner frpm Chicago, with a number of men in his employ, and a winter's supply of provis- ion, and landed at the mouth of uur rivfr. He claimed on both sides of the river, that tract which is now embraced in the recorded plat of the village. He was the first settler upon any portion of that tract of country now included in the counties of Racine, Walworth and Rock. He built a email log house 14 feel square, near where ihe warehouse of Junes Dulton now stands, where bis men wintered. During the following winter, in 1635, Paul Kingston cnme and settled upon the tract immediately south of of Capt. Knapp's. About the same time, Wil- liam See sealed at the Rapids, and the Beards- leys upon the river ubove. One of the Mrs. Beardsleys, it is believed, was the first woman lhat came to this section of the Rit- ciue Advocate. TOWNS IN THE INTERIOR. inhabitants of the lake town are not alone, by any means, in the work of improvement the present season. We were pleased to notice, while at Rochester some two months since, a number of substantial brick buildings going up, and everything apparently tagenuily than they otherwise could. We be- lieve a noccestful applicant can obtain C200, at regular interest, and have ten year, to repay it; but the applicant must be a married me- chanic, and must have served a mp- at his trade. In Franklin', time a nerion served a seven years' apprenticeship at the trade he wished to learn; but now trndea are mixed up and divided, and two or three ytanf deemed enough to give to learn the branch desired.

Alf AWKWARD BATHING Liverpool Mercury describes an amusing in- cident which recently occurred at the far Aimed bathing lown of Aedcar. A tady and gentle- nitin on a visil to llic watering place, not satis- filed with the restrictions and forms attendant on bathing from a machine, started early in tlie morning in Iheir phaeton to a favorable spol two miles up the sands; the lady provided her- sell with a bathing dress; the gentleman, as gentlemen often do when bathing, declining such incurabrance. .rlfter undressing on Iho sand, and placing their clothing in ihe carriage they took to the waier, but hid scarcely recov- ered from Ihe first "dip" when, to Iheir dismay, they observed Ihe horse start away at a smart trot with the carriage, dresses and them in Ihe primitive stale of our flrsl parents! After some lime it was arranged for the lady to proceed in her very scanty and picturesque costume, to Marske, where she arrived bnre- fooled and tjnivhendud, and after relating the awkward and laughable account of the horse, succeeded in borrowing a drejs for herself ami husband, which was forwarded in nil .peed to him; and he wn. soon recognised by the me.- eenger, patiently enduring hi. wolol plight, though up to his chin in the water. STHAN'QE few days since a black, scurvy neuro, ran away with'a beamiful while girt only 15 or 1C years of age. The girl was brought sip hi one of our respectable fami- lies as an adopied child, and the negro was ser- vant in Ihe same family.

I'm working on a theme and I've added the following code to functions.php:
add_filter( 'get_search_form', 'my_search_form' );
function register_my_menus() {
array( 'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ) )
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
I've added the following to header.php:

<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'header-menu' ) ); ?>

This properly displays the menu if the menu is setup and selected in Appearance>Menus. The problem is that if no menu is setup, and therefore no menu is selected, then WordPress simply displays whatever pages are setup on the site. How can I get WordPress to only display the menu if one is setup and not list pages? Thanks!

Fiction based on fact.
The Mogadishu Diaries by Eddie Thompkins
Book Description (from author)
Ten months before Blackhawk Down, US Marines launched its first major offensive against Mogadishu's militias. Top US military strategists for Operation Restore Hope recognized the critical importance of identifying Somali clan leaders responsible for the country's instability and violence. It became apparent that one man needed to be captured in order to help establish order. This warlord eluded the most elite US Special Forces teams in our military for almost a year during Operation Restore Hope/Continued Hope. There are many theories that explain how Mohamed Farrah Aidid won the cat and mouse game. This is my account…
Stills from the VHS tape capturing the US Marine Air/Ground assault are featured in this book.

Book Review
This is fiction based on real events, but it is more than a just another journal type story. It really makes you feel you knew what went on, on the ground, and in the heads of the military men (and women) in the story. I would have liked a glossary for the unfamiliar terms but got by with a dictionary and a bit of imagination.
The internal politics and rivalries in the military ranks were well told and the story moved at a fast pace. There was an accurate history of Somalia included, from 1969 to 1991 which helped put some background to the events of 1992.
I found it interesting that the rules could be bent in certain situations like the time when some women were being attacked and raped by gang members and there were no regrets or comebacks, and when a patrol of 'Project feed Somalia' was not disarmed as they were on a mission of mercy. This ended badly but not through any fault of the patrol involved.
Gunnery Thomson is a likable character who values his friendships and does everything he can to help his mate Ramirez in his career advancement. He spends time with the interpreters and shows them respect and also has his eye on one attractive female Somali interpreter.
The writer is able, very concisely, to paint word pictures to describe his colleagues and superiors with wit and humour, which gives the story reality. I hope there is another book in the pipeline as I would like to know if Thompson ever gets together with the girl, and would like to know about his family. For me, he has done what good writers do, he leaves you wanting more.
Guest Reviewer Marshal Parrent
I read Eddie Clay's book as two different readers: The U.S. Army veteran and the college English professor. The veteran in me liked the book, and because I could relate to the protagonist. As a solider, I experienced first-hand some of the very same issues as our Gunnery Sergeant Thompson: following orders that simply weren't logical, working under egotistical and childish officers hell bent on making your life a living hell, and overeager NCOs willing to topple anyone that stood in the way of their promotion (or the CO's butt). The book brought me back to the days I served from 1997-2001. It revived the memories of those men and women I served with that had in fact seen action in Somalia, their stories faded like old newspaper pages until now. It reminded me of every little frustrating or invigorating nuance that was standard issue with military life. Those were good days then, and my enlistment immeasurably shaped my life for the better. I'm grateful for having read this book and been reminded of all of that.
However, the English teacher in me had a few issues with this novel. I enjoyed the nostalgia, the story overall and the first-hand perspective from an enlisted man, but I couldn't get passed some of the problems with the writing. First off, a reader unfamiliar withU.S.military jargon may find the book difficult to follow. I've found that when you write about the military, it's best to treat it like science fiction or fantasy: The places, the nomenclature and the special circumstances of the characters must be explained in an entertaining and thoughtful way for an audience that does not know or understand this new world. I would certainly recommend that the writer keep in mind that only a small portion of his audience will understand how the American military works, and to write for everyone in mind.
Despite some issues with punctuation, the novel was readable. I can certainly live with the unnecessary and at times incorrect use of ellipses. What I really had trouble with, though, was the organization of the book. Each chapter is quite short, and at times painfully so. Chapter 11, for example, explains the general situation inSomalia, and in just one page. The action comes to an abrupt halt in this chapter to explain to the reader what's going on. This information would have been better served to the reader if it were integrated into the story. A footnote would have sufficed. Each chapter should advance the story in some form or fashion. On occasion, a chapter would end in the middle of a scene and then resume in the next chapter, which honestly didn't make much sense.
Parts of the narrative were either confusing or went nowhere. For example, the protagonist, Gunnery Sergeant Thompson, falls for a female interpreter. He goes through some great pains to woo her and learn more about this native Somalian's culture. After some effort, it appeared as though she was warming up the Gunny, but then we never hear about this budding relationship again. It seemed to be an important part of this fictionalized account, but the author seemed to forget about this part. Also, the ending of the book, and how the arrogant and menacing Captain Shaffner was finally outsmarted, was quite frankly confusing.
Overall, I don't think Clay's book is bad; however, it could use some improvements. I enjoyed reading it and because I am familiar with the military and enjoy war stories. If you want to read a fresh perspective of America's involvement in Somalia(that has absolutely nothing to do with Black Hawk Down), take the time to read this novella.

I have low acceleration and jerking at times. I've replaced the fuel filter and cleaned the IAC, but now I've noticed that it happens when I use the AC. The AC will be fine for a couple of minutes, then the engine loses power and the AC stops blowing cool air. When I turn the AC off, it takes several minutes before the engine runs well again.

Political science theory has long held that one's childhood and experiences influence how they think about politics.
But DNA, surprisingly, may play a critical role in how people broadly approach politics, from war and freedom to equality.
"Those who have studied political attitudes have missed half of the equation for far too long," University of Nebraska political scientist John Hibbing told about 75 people at a Feb. 8 lecture in Shields Library. Spon-sored by the Institute of Governmental Affairs, Hibbing's talk, "Beyond Heritability: The Physiological Differences between Liberals and Conservatives," echoed the classic 'nature or nurture' debate on the roles of heredity and environment in human development.
Instinctive responses
As Hibbing explained, geneticists who study behavior and personality have known for 30 years that genes play a large role in people's instinctive emotional responses to certain issues, their social temperament. Hibbing and his fellow researchers take that one step further, suggesting that genes prime people to respond cautiously — conservatively — or openly — liberally — to political issues.
The difficulty is that humans are not lab animals, he noted. "Studying predispositions would be easier if we were studying animals instead of humans," as scientists control environmental influences in lab research.
As a result, he and his colleagues based their research on examining the political attitudes, genes and DNA of identical and fraternal twins. Hibbing and the others found that identical twins, who share an entire genetic code, tended to answer the same on political issues more often than the fraternal twins, who are no more genetically related than siblings.
To define one as conservative or liberal, the researchers selected 28 questions most relevant to political behavior. In this view, conservatives tend to be more sensitive to threats from outside groups and will opt for greater punishment for those who deviate from the "in" group, which is reflected in their support of a strong military and capital punishment.
On the other hand, liberals are not as sensitive to threats from the outside and are more open to deviation within the "in" group — as a result, they are more tolerant of homosexuals and less inclined to back capital punishment.
Hibbing pointed out that a gene alone does not force one to take a specific stand on an issue — like either supporting or condemning the death penalty. Rather, a gene influences how one might broadly see those issues. For example, an absolutist — a person who has a strong perception of right and wrong — might be more inclined to favor the death penalty whereas a contextualist — one who sees more nuance in life — might be less so.
'Different ways'
When Hibbing's research appeared in 2005, it earned placement in the profession's premier journal, The American Political Science Review, and in-depth coverage by The New York Times, FOX News and MSNBC, among other media outlets.
In the big picture, Hibbing believes, this type of research has serious implications. If people took into account that their political opponents were "wired" a certain way, he said, they might be more tolerant of those differences and therefore less prone to unnecessary conflict.
"If we end up blowing up this planet, it's going to be over whether we have different ways of looking at political things, not whether we're introverted or extraverted. We can't deny our differences," said Hibbing.
Walt Stone, professor and chair of the UC Davis political science department, asked Hibbing what is the most "persuasive line of criticism" against his work?
Hibbing replied that "so many things affect the way genes are expressed," and some argue that the environment — not genes — ultimately shape political attitudes. He said he understands why some people are skeptical, though he is a bit frustrated with simplistic understandings.
"Genetics is not deterministic, but rather probabilistic," said Hibbing, adding "I don't know what it is about genes that short circuits people's abilities to think probabilistic." He readily acknowledges that individual variation does exist and that the environment does influence how genes are expressed.
However, genes are important, too, "but we've pretty much ignored that," he said.
Environment, not genes?
Some scientists do not agree with Hibbing's theory. One is Evan Charney, an assistant professor of political science at Duke University who told FOX News in 2006 that, "The very idea that something like a political ideology could be heritable is incoherent." Charney maintained then that any similarities found in twins' political beliefs can be attributed to the environment, not genetics.
Hibbing's talk, replete with DNA sequencing slides and references to neurotransmitters, seemed more like a biology lecture than a political science one. In many ways, it was reflective of how genetic research is shaping the social sciences, said political science graduate student Caitlin Milazzo.
"It is unfamiliar territory for me," said Milazzo, who is studying comparative politics, "but it's in line where we're going" in the field. "You're seeing a lot more of the hard sciences" being applied to social sciences. As for Hibbing's main idea, "it makes sense to me."

Brenna, a she-wolf Psy, was abducted by a serial killer - and returned a monster. The only person who can help her is Judd, a telekinetic and Council defector. But the passion burning between them could push them both over the edge of sanity in the third installment in Singh's breathtaking Psy-Changeling series.
Mind over matter: listen to more in the Psy-Changeling series.
©2007 Nalini Singh (P)2011 Tantor
"Mindblowing." (Romantic Times)
"Favorite of the series so far!"
Rowr! Okay, this one is my favorite book in the series so far. I've pretty much liked them all, but this one was extra hot!
I'm a grad student with very little time to edit reviews because I'm editing research papers. Forgive the typos. They're made with love.
"Best of the dozen"
I've listened to the many books of this series multiple times and I still believe this book is my absolute favorite. The plot is better, the characters are great, and there are just so many things to love. Read the other two books before this so you can READ THIS. NOW.
There's just something about a character that is mentally damaged by their race to have no emotion who suddenly has instincts overpower the brainwashing. Judd is such a strong silent warrior with a clear desire to be something other than he is, and Brenna brings out his humanity. I love it when he finally has a flameout and gets a few hours to do as he pleases before he has to return to the emotionless restraint.
Angela Dawe is the perfect voice for the non-human type. She can pull off scratchy deep voices of the male wolf changelings and sound utterly devoid of emotion like the psy. She's in her element with these novels.
I'm a grad student with little time to read fiction let alone write reviews (which is why mine are usually in need of a proofread - there's just no time), so I have used audible as a way to get my book fix. I listen while driving, while cleaning, eating, while getting ready, pretty much any time I can snag. I've returned to this series again and again because it is my absolute favorite on this site. LOVE IT.
"Really intense"
This love story was so intense that I got shivers. The need between the main characters was so thick and obvious and subtle and sweet and sexy and just everything. I could tell there was a connection before the characters realized it, but it was so subtle that I didn't feel like they were just being thrown together for no reason. Every scene was important. Nothing was wasted and that's what I love most about Nalini Singh's work. Her books are so well developed, and the characters are constantly evolving and growing together. In this one in particular. The main characters where so different that at first I was wondering how she would make it work, but midway through the book it was obvious that they were meant for one another. I've read all of the novels in this series so far and this one is by far my favorite.
Say something about yourself!
"Still awesome!"
The cover art is misleading...this book is about a changling female...and a psy male.....it was yummy yummy yummy! It only got 4 stars for repetative phrases that started to irk me, but the story itself was still really good! It was also nice to be in the wolf pack...rather than the leopard pack...nice change of pace and dynamics since every pack is different.
Still heart warming, still thought provoking, this book was build up for what are many more to come! If you haven't started this series yet....what the heck is stoping you?
I enjoy reading series and very rarely read stand alone series. I mostly read romance and sci-fi & fantasy.
"He's not an iceman"
This is the first story where the main character is a psy male. It gives a different perspective to those who have defected from the net. Even though it was harder for him to break silence he did it for his mate.
When Judd didn't stand up for Brenna at the cabin and she was mad at him. He had no idea that he was suppose to support her no matter what. It goes to show that even in the future that men are still as clueless to women's needs as they are now a days.
It made me laugh. The fact that Judd didn't know how to react to Brenna and, Brenna's brother's reactions to Judd just had me rolling around laughing till my sides hurt.
"Loved it!"
I love this entire series and this one in particular. It has a great mix of romance (including steamy sex scenes) and action, just as all the books in the series do. The narrator does a really good job with this one. My only complaint about Nalini Singh is that she has the weirdest chapter breaks. Rather than stopping the chapter at the end of a scene, she does it right in the middle, for no reason I can discern. But that's minor.
The series continues and keeps getting better!!! Well worth the credit and if you haven't read any from Nalini Singh - take the leap, you won't be disappointed! I liked that although this one is still linked to the continuing battle with the psy counsel, you learned more about the different changeling packs. Jed and Brenna are both stubborn and when they finally give in to each other it definitely creates fireworks in the bedroom. Love it!! I beg that you keep adding the rest of this series!!!
"Best so far!"
This was absolutely the best of the series so far. There is so much going on and many POV to hear from but this adds to the story without making it difficult to follow.
I want a Judd, the right kind of loyal man and oh what an alpha!
Brenna is incredible and battles through so much. She wants people to stop overprotecting her and let her go back to living.
Loved the romance loved the story. Impossible to stop listening to!! The narrator does an incredible job. Didn't think she could get better but she has.
"Another Great One!!!"
I just started listening to this series and I can't stop. I listen on the way to work, on the way home from work and after dinner. This series is the best.
S. Atkins
"Another Winner for the Psy/Changeling Series"
Judd and Brenna's story is intriguing and inspiring. It was wonderful visiting with characters from previous stories and meeting new characters. As always, Angela Dawe does an excellent job narrating the story.

Rated 1 out of 5 by KMKK going in the garbage These are terrible! There is nothing magnetic about them. They do not stay in the hair at all. When I did manage to get them kind of in, I get dents from so many bobby pins. I've been a hairstylist for 15 years. Do not buy these. Your probably better off buying the Velcro rollers but those tend to leave the hair frizzy when you take them out but at least they stay in. July 13, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Neecee401 Fantastic! Magnetic rollers are the best for doing your own roller sets. Since these are like the ones that they use in the salons. There not literally magnetic. There just plastic rollers, but when your hair is wet it sticks to them like a magnet. I have them in all sizes. But I use the green ones more often because it gives me a loose curl, almost straight hair. The only bad thing about Magnetic Rollers is they don't stay in place on there own like Velcro rollers. So make sure you buy double prong metal clips or bobby pins to keep them place. May 28, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by CurlyBeautiful A Must have I have these in every size. You can't go wrong here. They create a smooth set and lovely curls. Tip: I put mine in a hosiery bag in the dishwasher to get rid of the hair gunk or you can soak them in a bit of bleach and warm water in the sink. Also if you have the clamps that hold the roller in place, store them inside to roller to keep them tight. September 28, 2008

yup, unless Railey gets the boot. I'm interested in how our staff views Henton, Ashaolu and Gibson. Maybe Henton is the first choice? We did offer Henton way last summer before he committed to Dayton. The kid isn't rated high or anything by the recruiting services, but he has just always been a real stat stuffer, a physical wing that can play all over the floor.
Was he wearing a hoodie?
Nobody but HB knows for sure. You pretty much know nothing....like Knownothing would like to say.

Two. Christopherson and Allen both graduate.
We offered him last year before he chose Dayuton. Have to believe he's our priority.
When Scott and Allen graduate that opens up 2 for 2012
Just spoke to Henton. He's already back home in Michigan. I'll be posting a recap on the front page within the hour.

I went back to the Fast Dtriver this month to try it again and it split right around the head. What an absolute rip off.

Under a recent proclamation, those retaining more than of gold after May 1 are subject to a fine or a year's prison sen- tence. Borah called for insurance of bank deposits, and said there was "no se- curity, no assurance the person will ever get the gold back."

U.S. Envoy: Pakistan Can Do More, But Has 'Taken Significant Casualties'
As Alan Greenblatt writes for NPR.org this morning, there are at least "5 things the Afghan war review didn't say."
For example, he says that the report released Thursday by the Obama administration "calls for greater cooperation with Pakistan but is short on specifics about how to get there."
Today on Morning Edition, the man who's now the acting top civilian official in charge of U.S. policy for Afghanistan and Pakistan told NPR's Steve Inskeep and Tom Bowman that parts of Pakistan do indeed remain sanctuaries for al-Qaida and the Taliban. And, said Frank Ruggiero, "yes, the Pakistanis could do more." But, he added, "I think we should also recognize that they have taken some significant actions over the past year and a half."
Ruggiero, who has stepped into the "acting" role following this week's death of U.S. special representative Richard Holbrooke, said it should be noted that Pakistan has "taken action in six of the seven" tribal areas where terrorists have been operating and "have taken significant casualties ... 30,000 Pakistanis have been killed in this fight."
The U.S., Ruggiero said, will "continue to work with the government of Pakistan (to) engage them on actions we want them to take."
Here's some of the conversation:
