Never miss another 'Fella' show
Fella are a four-piece rock/pop band from Slough. Laddish in name and sound, they sing about everyday life in a simple, but effective style that is definitely easy on the ear. They describe their sound as 'Skindie' which is perfectly represented in their music by the offbeat SKA hooks and big indie refrains, fronted by tongue-in-cheek social commentary, delivered in a singing - rap style.

The rising price of fresh fruits and vegetables may put those choices beyond the reach of all but the affluent, UW researchers say.
Anyone who has tried to eat a more healthy diet lately knows it costs more to eat all those fresh fruits and vegetables. But a new study by the University of Washington has found that it's getting more expensive all the time — and may even be out of reach for some.
The first-of-its-kind study by UW researchers found that between 2004 and 2006, the costs of some healthy foods went up nearly 20 percent at major Seattle supermarkets. But over the same period, the cost of some junk foods dropped.
"Healthy foods are gradually slipping out of reach for all but the affluent consumers," said Adam Drewnowski, director of the University of Washington Center for Public Health and Nutrition and an author of the study.
"Foods we thought of as being everyday, healthy, nutritious foods are becoming luxury items."

Most Read Stories
The study tracked changes in prices over time and sorted by food quality. It compared the cost of more than 370 types of food purchased at three Seattle supermarket chains: QFC, Albertsons and Safeway.
The researchers compared the cost of food that is low in calories by weight — generally fresh fruits and vegetables — with the costs of higher-calorie foods, such as candy, pastries and snacks that are high in refined grains, sugars and fat.
The 20 percent increase in cost of the healthy foods, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, was way ahead of the overall cost increase of all the food combined, which was 5 percent.
The study, by Drewnowski, and Pablo Monsivais, a research fellow at the center, was published in the December issue of the Journal of the American Dietetic Association.
The findings were discouraging to experts who have long been concerned that poor people lack access to healthy food and face higher rates of obesity and related health problems, such as diabetes and heart disease.
"It's a justice issue," said David Bobanick of the Access to Healthy Foods Coalition, a Wenatchee-based nonprofit. "For people on limited incomes, this is so much more than an annoyance. You weigh the decision, 'Do I fill my child's empty stomach so they don't feel the pang of hunger with what I can afford? Or do I try to feed them nutritious food?' "
The study has its limitations, the researchers are quick to note. For example, the pricing didn't take into account such things as coupons, store chains' loyalty cards that grant reduced prices or sale offers. And the researchers stuck to the chain stores, so they didn't weigh options such as farmers markets, where fresh food can cost less.
But they also came away with some advice for the shopper on a budget.
One big one: Go for frozen and canned vegetables and soups, which often have the same nutritional value at a lower cost.
"Fresh is a middle-class obsession," Drewnowski said.
For researcher Monsivais, the findings were "kind of a shocker" because they contradict a popular assumption that food is cheap in America.
But that notion "doesn't tell you anything for those of us trying to eat healthy," he said.

- Artists Shingo Nakamura, Espen, Adam Byrd, Nick Hogendoorn
- Release Date 2012-12-11
- Labels Silk Textures (Silk Music)
- Catalog SILKTX035
Silk Textures proudly welcomes acclaimed Dutch house artist Nick Hogendoorn for its 35th release. With countless classics to his name, including numerous collaborations with long-standing collaborative partner Eelke Kleijn, Nick is an especially exciting addition to our label roster. His latest masterpiece, "Science," is presented here, along with new remixes by three fellow veteran stars: Shingo Nakamura, Espen, and Adam Byrd.
Nick's "Original Mix" beings with a subterranean soundscape, as cavernous pads and bass evoke the vision of an after-hours 'science' experiment, deep in the Hogendoorn laboratory. A variety of cave-like rhythmic effects enhance the soundscape, as the bass and pads slowly crescendo. In the main break, the "mad" scientist speaks: it's a haunting and deeply emotive monologue, which creates a memorable centerpiece for the track.
The tireless Shingo Nakamura offers the first of three new interpretations; his mix was also included in his own "Only Silk 01" compilation, which appeared recently on parent label Silk Digital. Shingo's remix includes the cinematic vox sample in the main break, as well as a crescendoing and hypnotic lead arpeggio, which explodes into the drop. With its strong rhythmic drive and climactic break, this version is sure to resonate the most with progressive fans.
Next up is Norwegian veteran talent Espen, who offers a truly visionary, re-imagined take. The tempo is quite energetic, though, the overall vibe of the tune is atmospheric and soothing. As his lead element, Espen has chosen a filtered and very "hooky" progression, which sounds a bit like a dubby guitar riff. In the main break, the filter envelope of this lead theme opens up, giving it more of a funky, 80's character. Meanwhile, subtle rhythmic and sampled vox effects from the original punctuate the outer-wordly soundscape.
Finally, trusty Hungarian label fixture Adam Byrd offers a quintessential deep house take, with a sensual -- dare we say, erotic -- vibe. The resonant groove is worthy of a deep house set opener, though, this version is just as suitable for the after-hours, as a cool-down or listening track. Again, the cinematic monologue of the original appears throughout the tune, while a variety of jazzy sounds create a lush mid-range. In the break, various pads and wooshes filter in and out, while synth stabs maintain the intriguing and provocative atmosphere.

AG Kane asks court to dismiss Spanier's misconduct suit
Attorney General Kathleen Kane filed papers Tuesday asking a federal court to dismiss ex-Penn State President Graham Spanier's lawsuit alleging prosecutorial misconduct in the case charging him with a conspiracy to hide Jerry Sandusky's crimes.
The five-page filing in U.S. District Court in Harrisburg came a day after Spanier filed the lawsuit, which alleges former Chief Deputy Attorney General Frank Fina violated Spanier's rights during a grand jury investigation.
Spanier, 65, is charged with perjury, endangering the welfare of children, obstruction of justice, failure to report child abuse, conspiracy to endanger the welfare of children and conspiracy to obstruct justice.
Prosecutors say Spanier, retired Penn State Vice President Gary Schultz and former Athletic Director Tim Curley agreed to conceal a 2001 allegation that Sandusky sexually abused a boy in a locker room shower. All three face identical charges and are awaiting trial in Dauphin County Court.
Kane argues the court is barred from granting Spanier's request to have the case halted and the charges dismissed by a court doctrine that requires federal courts to hold back from intervening in cases before state courts until they are resolved.
Spanier alleges Fina knowingly allowed Spanier to testify before the grand jury under the mistaken belief that Penn State General Counsel Cynthia Baldwin represented him. In fact, Spanier alleges, Fina heard Baldwin tell the judge supervising the grand jury proceedings that she was representing "the university solely."
When Baldwin testified before the grand jury in a later session, Fina strayed beyond limits set by the judge and asked Baldwin about confidential conversations with Spanier, violating his attorney-client privilege.
Spanier alleges Fina pursued charges against him in bad faith because much of the state's case against him is based on Spanier and Baldwin's inadmissible testimony. For that reason, it violates his right to due process of law and must be dismissed, Spanier's suit says.
Spanier's attorney, Elizabeth Ainslie of Philadelphia, and the attorney general's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Sandusky, 70, was convicted in 2012 of 45 counts related to the sexual abuse of boys he befriended through his charity for at risk youth. The retired assistant football coach is serving a 30-year minimum sentence in state prison.

A bright lemony tart is a lovely way to perk up the darkest day and help chase those Wintertime blues away. As soon as I make one and it is ready to eat, friends just seem to show up at my cottage to say "hello". I'm delighted to invite them in for a cup of tea and piece of tart around my table. In short time, all that is left are delicious crumbs and memories of good conversations and smiles. So, what to do when it's all gone? Well, make another of course!
Lemon Tart is made in three stages and not all of them have to happen at once, so this can fit into busy schedules.
- Blind bake a crust and while it is still warm, paint it with egg white wash and let cool.
- Make homemade lemon curd.
- Put it all together and bake for a few minutes. Cool and enjoy!
And if you have any extra lemon curd left, it's great to spread on freshly baked scones with some Kerrygold Irish Butter, too!

This summer I was lucky enough to have caught not only Willie Nelson rockin' out at Red Rocks but Kris Kristofferson with Merle Haggard bringing down the house at the Denver Center for the Performing arts.
Since then I have been listening to a deeper variety of each of their music. My favorite Willie album remains "Red Headed Stranger" and I do prefer to listen to Kris's songs that are done by someone else (hey, he never claimed to be a good singer but, man, can that guy write a song!).

Palmse manor house
In case you are here only for a short period of time, going to the islands or even southern estonia may be impossible due to simple time limitations. So it may be a good idea to plan a day trip to a nice nearby place. A great idea would be to go to see one of our many magnificent manor houses. Most of these are located in places surrounded by beautiful and rich nature, and offer great cultural and intellectual stimulation to people interested in more than the cheap markest and old-town pubs.
One of the best restored and best-known of the manor houses is situated in Palmse. in addition to a magnificently decorated interior, the park surrounding the manor house is also a great place for a picnic or justa nice stroll.
Directions: In Laane-Virumaa county, Palmse. Follow the signs along the Tallinn-Narva highway...
Otepää is called the winter capital of Estonia, since the town and the surrounding hills are illed with people during the winter - skiing, snowboarding, sledging, skating, building snowmen and so on.
In case you are interested in skiing, one of the best places to do that is near Otepää in the southern estonia. This is the only part of the country that is at least somewhat hilly, so there are several bed and breakfasts, places renting out skiing and snowboarding equipment, maintained skiing tracks and mountain sides and everything you need for a nice active holiday on the snowy slopes of the Estonian hills. The most popular hills among mountain skiiers and snowboarders are Väike Munamägi and Kuutsemäe.
The Old Town with its red roofs and church towers
Well, this is the location you'll probably not miss, even without me promoting it :)
Well, the old town of Tallinn is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe. The narrow and winding cobble-stone streets, small street cafes, the medieval atmosphare, red roofs and old churces are something you will see nowhere else in the world. Well, at least ones that are so well preserved and where there are so many of them! The old town is truly a miraclulos and myserious place. Just peep into some of the old courtyards, walk through the dark and narrow passages, feel the solemn quiet in the 13th century churches, take a carriage ride through the streets - you will be amazed how beuatiful it all is. Nothing too elaborate, not all shining and colorful, but truly magical and gorgeous.

Estonia has a considerable number of islands, habited ones as well as smaller inhabited ones. If you have more time in Estonia, don't miss out on them.
The largest islands are Saaremaa, Hiiumaa, Muhu and Vormsi, all situated off the western coast of Estonia.The nature on the islands is increadible - clean, untouched, wild and peaceful. On these islands you can get a really nice look at the rustic life in Estonia - visit the small country churches, sit at a local (and cheap) inn, stay at one of the numerous farmhouses operating as bed and breakfast places, swing on the huge village swings, camp out under the stars and sit by the fire, take walks in forests and beaches, see unique flora and fauna, ride a horse, catch fish, visit the centuries old wind-mills and water mills, and just totally relax and forget all your worries. Or you can go to the larger towns on the islands and enjoy civilazation with all forms of entertainment and comfort.
The islands in Estonia are one of the most peaceful and quiet places on earth, and definately worth a visit!
A concert by the lake Leigo
One place definately worth visiting in Estonia is the Southern part. The only place in Estonia where you can find "mountains" - the highest being the Big Egg Hill (Suur Munamägi), which is 315 meters high. Try climbing up to the tower on top of the hill to get an amazing view on the surrounding lakes and forests and countryside.
There are numerous nice lakes in the area - the largest being Võrtsjärv. Nice places for a little bit of relaxing and swimming and sun bathing. Go for hikes in the forests and enjoy the quiet and untouched nature.
Once in south Estonia also visit some cities - especially Tartu and Võru are nice.
The main thing - don't limit your travelling just to the towns and cities, there is so much more to see outside the "civilization" as well!
The Town Hall Square
Once in Estonia, you should also check out the cultural and education centre of our country - the city of Tartu! Tartu is almost a typical university city - the population is about 100 000, but grows once school starts in September. Most of the life in Tartu revolves around the Tartu University, the oldest in Estonia (established in 1364).
The city has a special atmosphare - cultural, intelligent, sophisticated, yet young - most of the people you'll see in the city are students, the rest... professors :) Well, actually it is true - in the centre of the town you'll see students sitting around fountains, laying on the grass, cramming for the exams, drinking beer...
It is a really really nice city and definately worth a visit, especially since it is on the way to Southern Estonia, where the nature is amazing...
You absolutely must see the nature as much as possible. We are a little country, and therefore everything (except for the third-largest lake in Europe - Peipsi) we have here is also rather little (like the water-fall on the picture), but all of the nature and wildlife is amazingly cute and clean.
You just can't come to Estonia without seeing the Islands Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, which are the largest here. But in case you have the time you should definetly visit also the smaller islands: Vormsi, Ruhnu etc. The nature there is amazingly beautiful - junipers, beaches, large meadows, windmills, animals, nice, friendly and helpful people. And the ferry takes you to Saaremaa (the first island you'll reach is actually Muhumaa, which is connected with the largest island - Saaremaa by a bridge), Hiiumaa and Vormsi quite cheaply and easily. A great chance to get to see the real nature of western estonia.
Directions: The ferries to Saaremaa go from the harbour of Virtsu and the harbour in Muhumaa from where you can drive on to Saaremaa is Kuivastu. The ferries to Vormsi and Hiiumaa go from the harbour Rohuküla and

We can all think of someone while we were in school that made a difference to us. Most of us might remember a particular teacher or instructional assistant that helped us learn. To some it might have been the lunch lady that gave an extra scoop of cheesy macaroni, or that bus driver that waited the extra second as we were running out the door late, or the custodian that helped us unlock a jammed locker. Maybe some remember a principal or district administrator that encouraged us on a test or at an event. Regardless of who it was, we want to honor them for what they have done for our children and our schools.

Hi guys, it's my first post here! I'm 18 years old (male), 135 lbs, 5'5" with long legs and a short torso. I was rowing competitively the last two years for my college but I was always at a serious disadvantage because of my height. During that period I had many people suggest that I pick up cycling instead because apparently my body type suits some type of cycling (I forget which one). I never paid it much attention since my only experience with cycling is on the stationary bike when cross training and riding around the park as a kid on the mountain bike my parents bought me from Costco.
Anyway, I hurt my lower back and ankle recently and haven't been able to row or run. I am seeing a physical therapist and in the meantime I was bored with not doing any activity so I took my old bike out and started riding it around my neighborhood. It's been about two weeks now and I ride about 16 km a day (45 minutes) for fun at a moderate speed and I'm really enjoying it. I never knew cycling could be so much fun. I'm still uncomfortable with riding alongside traffic but it's getting better. I know almost nothing about changing gears or proper posture while riding. But I'm really enjoying it, almost as much as rowing. I'm starting university soon and I was thinking maybe I could get a better bike and commute to school (downtown) everyday. It's about a 30 km round trip.
So I have a couple questions:
- I can afford to spend about $400 on a bike. Can I get a decent used one for that much money? And if so should I get a mountain bike or a road bike? I have no experience with the latter but the path to my university has a couple hills.
- I understand that different types of cycling (hills, sprints, etc...) are better suited for different body types. Given my weight and size, which would be the ideal one if I wanted to start training competitively? I think I want to take a break from rowing for a while.
All responses and comments would be much appreciated

Ah, Penn Station. So many plans to rebuild, so few totally unrealistic dreams that come true. It looks like we're stuck with you and your completely insane system of announcing the tracks as thousands of people race to beat each other on board. Maybe it's time to celebrate the good (not just the bad and ugly like we usually do). If you're train is actually on time, then congratulations! If not, take a look around. Along with the classical music, weary travelers, popcorn vendors and plenty of New York characters, you just might come across this relic from the past. It's a real telephone that will supposedly connect you right to Amtrak. Who picked up on the other end? I didn't have time to find out, because they just called my track number, and I want to get a window seat...

Miss Happy Ring
18k yellow gold and diamond
Ref. Number:829010-0110
Simple, feminine and in constant motion, the Miss Happy line is a charming take on the Happy Diamonds collection. The delicate, curved form of the motif on this ring in 18k yellow gold holds within it the signature moving diamond that dances freely between two sapphire crystals. A radiant spectacle, framed by the precious yellow gold of the ring.

We had dinner last night out on the backyard patio, first time in a while since it finally stopped raining. It was burgers stuffed with cheese (aka "juicy lucy") along with cole slaw. This sounds pretty basic, but here's some more random info on it. (Sorry, forgot to snap a pic)
- We had some steaks that we had purchased in bulk that turned out to be kind of tough. So, TM used his sausage grinder to make our own hamburger last night for the burgers. He also ground up half an onion right into the burger mixture. This worked out well and we'll use this idea to use up the remaining steaks that we have.
- The burgers were stuffed with about an ounce of Bessy's Best Olive Cheese from Sterling, ND. This was our first time making "juice lucy" burgers and I think they turned out delicious.
- We made the burgers quite large and we agreed that smaller burgers would be better next time.
- We had cole slaw with a vinaigrette-based dressing that I just made up. We were served cole slaw like this at a local restaurant recently and it was good. I wanted to recreate something like it so I put together some honey and cider vinegar, a little mustard, a little olive oil, some fresh parsley and celery seed. It was still too acidic so I added some water. The recipe will take some refining but overall I liked it.

Unfourtunately some of the drams you selected for your are now out of stock :(
We've set your shipping destination to:
Prices vary based on delivery destination (it's a tax thing), so please change it if you're not shipping within United States as it might affect the price! (Why?)
Master of Malt was founded in 1985 as a retailer and bottler of whisky and other fine spirits. Today, we bottle new whiskies all the time, and our policy is simple: we only ever put our name on anything that makes us go "Wow!" That's all there is to it! Being extremely picky, we regularly try dozens of cask samples before we find one we're willing to bottle (trying glass after glass of fine Scotch whisky is harder than it sounds!). We also dearly love to bottle unusual whiskies too. When it comes to bottling, we like to leave things unadulterated. We never add caramel colouring to our whiskies, and we prefer to leave them at natural cask strength. In the rare occasion when we lower the bottling strength we never, ever use chill-filtration, as we believe this affects the flavour of good spirit, and we can't have that!We also offer 3cl whisky samples of as many of our own bottlings as possible, to give you the opportunity to try before you buy. Plus, if you're looking for an extra special gift, we are more than happy to personalise anything from our own range...
You know what's happened here don't you! We created this page to display a selection of lovely items, and then we've gone and sold out of them and haven't yet updated the page. We're terribly sorry for this, and will do our utmost to have a whole mess of delicious new products on this page very soon.
Either that or this Colobus Monkey is to blame. Look at the guilty expression on his countenance. Look at it!

- At f/1.4, and f/2, the 35/1.4 produces an image with some detail, but overall it is very soft and low in contrast.
- At f/2.8, the 17-35 produces an image with moderate detail, better overall than the 24-70 and 28-70. The 35/1.4 is showing very good detail at lower right, but is very smeared at upper left.
- At f/4, the 16-35 shows moderate detail, on par with the 17-35. The other lenses remains quite smeared at top left, but the 35/1.4 show excellent detail at lower right.
- At f/5.6, the 35/1.4 looks excellent over about half the area, but with blur developing at upper left. The 16-35 shows overall consistent detail that is not very crisp, not unlike the 17-35 and 24-70. The 28-70 is very smeared.
- At f/8, the 24-70 and 35/1.4 look excellent, the 16-35 very good, and the 17-35 and 28-70 disappoint.
- At f/11, the 16-35 and 17-35 and 28-70 improve, but the 17-35 remains softer than the rest.

Context: Although Canadian women have had the right to obtain legal induced abortions for the past decade, access to the procedure is still limited and controversial in many areas. Methods: Chiefs of obstetrics and gynecology, chiefs of staff, directors of nursing and other health professionals at 163 general hospitals in Ontario, Canada, were asked to provide information on issues concerning the availability of abortion services at their facility. The hospital participation rate was 97% and the individual response rate was 75%. Results: Nearly one-half (48%) of hospitals perform abortions. Approximately 36% of these hospitals do so up to a maximum gestational age of 12 weeks, 23% to a maximum of 13-16 weeks, 37% to a maximum of 17-20 weeks and 4% at greater than 20 weeks. Hospital factors, including resources and policies, did not significantly influence whether abortions are provided. However, these factors did affect the number performed, whether there were gestational limitations and the choice of procedure. About 13% of provider hospitals indicated that staff training contributes to the existence of gestational age limits, and 24% said that it directly influences procedure choice. Only 18% of hospitals reported that their physicians have received additional training outside of their medical school or medical residency education to learn abortion techniques or to gain new skills. Forty-five percent of hospitals that provide abortions had experienced harassment within the past two years, and 15% reported that this harassment has directly affected their staff members' willingness to provide abortions. Conclusion: Based upon the provision of obstetric care, many hospitals in Ontario that are capable of offering abortion services do not. Some of the reasons for this failure are related to the procedure itself, while others may be related to resource issues that affect the delivery of other medical services as well. Variation in the availability of abortions is due to a shortage of clinicians performing the procedure, and training directly influences gestational limits and procedural choices.

In College Park, a man waits for his power to return. But, his neighbors have had it back for a while.
In Laurel, customers dine at a Chipotle on Route 1 while looking at dark, closed businesses across the street.
Yes, the power is coming back on, but it's very spotty.
"It gets frustrating when you and maybe three other houses are the ones that don't have power," said College Park resident David Asselin.
As of Tuesday night, not only had Asselin's house been without power since Friday, but he hadn't been able to drive his car anywhere because it was trapped by debris from a tree that fell onto power lines in front of his home.
Asselin has watched more and more lights come back on in his Hollywood neighborhood while his place has stayed in the dark.
Wendell Washington is in a similar situation in Laurel. Although areas close to him to the north and to the south have electricity, he's been without it since Friday night.
He was running a generator to help save his frozen food when ABC7 talked to him Tuesday night.
"We're holding up," Washington said. "It could be worse."
As the number of homes without power goes down, the seeming randomness of who has power and who doesn't has many residents wondering.
In many cases, one neighbor may be sweltering while the other sits in air conditioning.
The hope is by this weekend there will be very little people still without power. In Laurel Tuesday night crews were working to try to make that happen, but for at least one more day homes like Washington's are dark.

One of the reasons I love romance is because it can find a place in any story, in pretty much any storytelling medium. Movies, television shows, novels—and, yes, video games.
Over the years, BioWare games have earned a reputation not only for exhaustingly good worldbuilding, storytelling, and dialogue, but also for entertaining romantic storylines. When I played the Dragon Age games for the first time, not only was I able to customize my own character and determine the stories' endings with my decisions, but I could also pursue a romance with a selection of love interest characters from my party. Pursuing each love interest, thanks to their differing personalities and backgrounds, results in a different type of romantic story each time—story types that avid romance readers like us can readily recognize. As it turns out, there's a romance novel for everyone hiding in every Dragon Age game.
For the Fan of the Virginal Beta Male
Romancing Alistair from Dragon Age: Origins allows you to seduce the cloistered, righteous knight and help him adjust to the ramifications of his mysterious parentage. Affectionate, loyal, and happily willing to let the lady take charge, Alistair helps your character stay on the straight and narrow while building his own confidence. Play your cards right, and you just might be the first lady to charge his battlements. He'll also give you flowers!

Used the following to fix the problems (for the remaining issues, will change my code around). Sorry for the improper code format in my initial post.
import csv, re, mechanize
htmlML = br.response().read()
#escaping ? fixed the regex match
patMemberName = re.compile('(.*) ')
searchMemberName = re.findall(patMemberName,htmlML)
MembersCsv = 'path-to-csv'
MemberWriter = csv.writer(open(MembersCsv, 'wb')) #adding b fixed the \n in csv
for i in searchMemberName:
print (i)
Thank you for your time

DETROIT — Testimony concluded Thursday in a federal court challenge to Michigan's ban on same-sex marriage, with a witness for the state testifying that unrepentant homosexuals are going to hell.
Douglas Allen, a Canadian economist who has researched 60 same-sex parenting studies during a 15-year period, warned that Michigan should uphold its ban on same-sex marriage because there "is no evidence on the child outcome issue."
But it was Allen's personal views on homosexuality that emerged following a question from plaintiffs' attorney Ken Mogill, reported the Detroit Free Press.
"Is it accurate that you believe the consequence of engaging in homosexual acts is a separation from God and eternal damnation?" Mogill asked the state's expert, then added, "in other words, they're going to hell."
"Without repentance, yes," answered Allen.
Allen, who has testified in three other same-sex marriage trials, is the last witness to testify in the nine-day-long trial in which two lesbian nurses are seeking to overturn the state's ban on gay marriage.
Among his conclusions:
- Girls raised by two gay men are only 15 percent as likely to graduate from high school compared to girls raised a mother and father.
Girls raised by two lesbian mothers are about 45 percent as likely to graduate from high school compared to those raised a mother and father.
Boys raised by two lesbian mothers are 76 percent as likely to graduate high school compared to boys raised by married heterosexuals.
Boys raised by two gay men are 60 percent as likely to graduate compared to boys raised by married heterosexuals.
Allen was one of four witnesses called by the state, all of which denied having any biases toward same-sex couples, and who said their research was based on numbers, not views.
Article continues belowApril DeBoer, 42, and Jayne Rowse, 49, sued in 2012 to try to overturn a Michigan law that bars them from adopting each other's children, but the case was expanded when U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman invited couple to amend their suit to challenge the state's ban on same-sex marriage, "the underlying issue."
Rowse and DeBoer did not testify, although the state agreed with a statement read into evidence that describes them as "responsible and caring parents" who are providing a loving home to their children.
It is the first U.S. trial over a same-sex marriage ban since a California trial in 2010, although federal judges in other ways recently have struck down similar bans in Utah, Oklahoma, Virginia and Texas. At least 17 states and the District of Columbia now allow marriage between same-sex couples.
The state has defended the constitutional amendment as a way to promote family stability through households led by a man and a woman.
Closing arguments in the case are expected to begin Friday.
Follow the case: DeBoer v. Snyder.

Hi, first of all: I really love this theme!
But I have a question: how can I get the embedded youtube video in the story shown on the frontpage? Now they're filtered out and are only visible in the single posts. I believe it ha something to with the excerpts (in the functions.php file?), but I'm no developer so I am stuck... :(
It would also be nice if I the video of a sticke post would be visible in the slider (since it's for a site with funny videos, I have no images in the posts).
Kind regards from the Netherlands!

TF on Instructions for Recording Relationships: Final Report (May 2013)
The task force needs guidance on the discussion questions posed on p.3 of their report, regarding the mixing of WEMI levels: "If the cataloger needs a structured description of a related Work, should she be allowed to add Manifestation details?" (from p.3 of the report). CC:DA members and liaisons, please post your ideas here.
I don't think allowing to add details at Manifestation level to a description of a Work is true to RDA principles or beneficial for the user. If we add information on Manifestation to a description of a Work this would make it a Manifestation of a Work, not a Work as abstract concept, wouldn't it? I agree with the statement in the report that "The cataloger could be dealing with the Work in the abstract, and not with any particular Manifestation". If we use such a level of specificity in the relationship designator (Work vs Manifestation, Work vs Expression, or Work vs Item) then we have to be true to what we describe. Otherwise, why not to use Manifestation in the description?
I think giving Manifestation details might be misleading for users as they will be directed to look for a particular edition, not abstract work.

"There is no nonsense so errant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action." — Bertrand Russell[1]
Propaganda is the use of media and other information sources in order to affect or control the perceptions and behaviour of a population. Frequently information presented is wholly or partially incorrect, or misrepresented in order to convey a specific, pervasive message.
The aim of propaganda is not to inform, but to guide thought. In this regard, propaganda may be separated from simple advertising in that advertising largely attempts to extol the virtues of a product or service in order to attract commerce, propaganda is a much more pervasive attempt to mold public opinion for a variety of reasons. However, propaganda shares many techniques in common with advertising, such as repetition, reliance on famous spokespeople and messages cloaked in advertisement.
Political movements of all types have used propaganda widely, despite sometimes dramatically opposing ideologies. For example, in World War II, the Allies, Soviets and Nazis, all very different in their ideologies, all used propaganda to a great degree during the course of the conflict and after.[2][3][4]
Although already seen in some circles as a threat to democratic ways of life as early as 1937,[5] the word did not become pejorative in common usage until after World War II.
[edit] Propaganda techniques
- Big Lie - The more outrageous the lie, the better.
- Experts for hire - Pay them enough, and they will say anything.
- Front group - Often going by the euphemism "think tank" these days.
- FUD - "Manufacturing doubt."
- Limited hangout - Revealing only a small portion of facts relevant to a scandal in order to defuse criticism.
- Ratfucking - Many of the "dirty tricks" pioneered by the Tricky Dick administration.
- Stovepiping - Cherry-picking unvetted information.
- Whataboutism - And you are lynching Negroes
[edit] Art
The arts are often employed as a medium for presenting propaganda.

I'm considering purchasing one of the Garmin Forerunner products. I'm primarily interested in the unit to record my ride and waypoints along a given route to later upload and overlay on to top of a map (mapmyride, google maps, maybe even some of the Garmin Map series like Topo US, City Navigator etc).
Does this unit have any restriction in doing any of the following? I won't be needing it for any of the cycling features, but rather a unit to use when Mountain Biking, Road Riding, or running to later upload and check out my route and keep detailed logs of favorite routes and trails etc.
Thanks for any feedback.

180 g butter
70 g of shelled and ground almonds
50 g sugar
2 egg yolks
210 g plain flour
Quickly mix all the ingredients to a short-crust dough and leave it in a cool place for one hour. Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1 cm before cutting into small pieces and forming crescent-shaped biscuits. Place the cookies on an ungreased baking tray and bake at a moderate temperature (200°C) for around ten minutes or until they turn a light brown colour. Mix icing sugar and vanilla sugar together, then toss the hot cookies in the mix.
Store the biscuits in a sealed tin for several days for them to become crumbly.
But make sure that you hide your Vanillekipferl well, so that nobody can get at them before you can!
