Silhouette Brown's self-titled debut was greatly received and seemed to fill a gap in the soul underground, so 5 years is a long time to wait for a follow-up. But as they say, good things come to those who wait. The production & song writing team that is Silhouette Brown consists of Bembe Segue, Kaidi Tatham and Dego. This time around they are joined by a new vocalist the unmistakable sound of Philadelphia's Lady Alma. Lady Alma has appeared on countless club classics over the years from Sylk 130's "When the Funk Hits the Fan" to Soul Dahmma's "Happy" and 4hero's "Hold it Down".
Two will be released on February 9, 2010 on 2000black Records.

The Italian luxury goods company said Monday it plans to open 10 stores in India by 2013 — including three this year — after launching a joint venture with a local real estate company.
Ferragamo said the agreement with India's DLF represented the opportunity to consolidate its presence in a "strategic" and "high-growth potential" market.

The Florence-based company has a 51 percent holding in the joint venture with DLF.

Absolute Best Sugar Cane Sugar!
Posted by radcraze on Feb 18, 2016
I recently ordered some rapadura sugar to compare with this sucanat that I've used for several years now. I learned that the rapadura is processed in a facility that also processes wheat (gluten), dairy and soy :( Also the rapadura sugar which is basically made the same was more gray/brown in color with a burnt sugar taste while the sucanat is more orange/brown in color and has rich sweet taste on tongue. This tells me the rapadura was cooked at a much higher heat as to burn the sugar while the sucanat was gently cooked down while drying. Thank you Wholesome Sweeteners for providing a sweet and cleanly processed dehydrated sugar cane juice.

Why I'm Not Offended by the San Francisco Welcome Letter
Regular readers know that I'm an advocate and practitioner of ecumenical and interfaith dialogue and cooperation. I believe that persons, including leaders, of different traditions of faith should treat each other, and each other's faiths, with respect and look for opportunities to work together to uphold and advance values they hold in common. This does not require pretending that there are not important differences between faiths. A fruitful ecumenism cannot be founded on religious relativism or indifferentism. Nor need ecumenical and interfaith partners refrain from criticizing teachings of each other's faiths with which they strongly disagree. There are respectful, civil, and entirely appropriate ways to do this.
I raise these points in light of the goings on in San Francisco regarding the appointment and installation of Salvatore Cordileone as Archbishop. The city's Episcopalian bishop "welcomed" the new Archbishop with (how shall we describe it?) a rather pointed open letter implicitly, but very clearly, characterizing Catholic teaching on sexual morality and marriage (and, perhaps, on abortion as well, though that is a little less clear) as "repression," and implicitly characterizing the Archbishop himself, who is a strong defender of marriage, chastity, and the sanctity of human life, as an oppressor.
Well, it is San Francisco. [more]

KALAMAZOO, Mich. - NIU picked up its conference victory on Friday at Western Michigan (10-9, 0-1 MAC). The Huskies were able to overcome the Broncos, a team which bested them twice in 2013, in a 5-2 final. The win improves NIU's record to 14-5 with a 1-0 record in the MAC.
"We played pretty well in doubles," said Head Coach Patrick Fisher. "We did a good job of applying pressure in singles as well."
In doubles, Simon Formont and Frederic Cadieux started things strong for the Huskies. They were the first ones to finish, taking an 8-5 victory in the No. 2 over Jim Beckwith and Ruben Greiner. Dor Amir and Axel Lagerlof later sealed the point for NIU when they took the No. 1 against Nadin Indre and Stephen Payne, 8-3. It was the tandem's 15th victory of the spring.
With the doubles point in hand, NIU looked to get the victory in singles with at least three victories. The team did not disappoint in this one, as the Huskies took four of the six singles matches to end the affair ahead 5-2.
Jovan Zeljkovic helped get things going with a win the No. 4 against Jim Beckwith, 6-3, 7-5. It was Zeljkovic's 11th victory of the spring. Matt Lynch turned a comeback victory in the No. 6 to help the cause. He toughed out a battle against Michael Treis to eventually win, 2-6, 6-2, (10-8).
"Jovan was great," said Fisher. "He really helped us make a push against them. Lynch played really well too. He got himself down early, but turned it around to get the win."
"It's very tough to play on Western Michigan's courts and get the victory," added Fisher. "This is big for us, but it doesn't ensure anything. We still need to improve, particularly in doubles, where we struggled to make good returns today. This is a tough conference to play in, so we'll need to keep up the intensity."
Next up for the Huskies is match against Ball State. On Saturday, April 5, the Huskies will host the Cardinals. As of now, that match will be played at the Boylan Tennis Center in Rockford, Ill. However, if weather permits, it the match may be played on the outdoor tennis courts at NIU in DeKalb, Ill. For updates on the location, go to NIUHuskies.com.

Welcome to my new blog feature where we are sharing daily routines from all types of Mums and Dads. If you have only just come across this feature you can read all about it here. I would love for you to get involved.
Today we have Laura and her boys. Laura blogs over at Mummy to Boyz and is a crafty Mummy. I wish I was a little more crafty. Here's what they get up to.
Tell me a bit about yourself and your family…
I'm Laura mummy to two gorgeous boys the boy (O) who has just turned 4 and the young one (L) who is 14 months and daddy. O is my 'free spirited' boy whilst L is the calmer one, we live on the edge of the new forest and enjoying getting out and about. I love all things crafty & baking although I don't get much time to do any.
Are you a stay at home mum or working mum?
I'm a working mum working three days and through the evenings when the boys are in bed so life is pretty full on.
Describe your daily routine…
We don't really follow a set routine which might be why the days are so busy but we have a rough routine if it helps?
5-6.30am The boys wake: Any time between 5 & 6.30 – before 6 is a killer! Usually TV time.
6-7.30am Breakfast: depending on how hungry they are or if they are ready to eat. The boy has either dry cheerios, toast or a tea cake, the young one has cheerios with milk, toast & half my porridge- he can eat!
After breakfast quick shower, baby goes done for a nap – anywhere between 20 mins or 2 hours.
I try and do a craft, play a game/ bake with O when L is sleeping.
10-10.30am Snack time which usually is Fruit & crackers.
Outside play or meet with friends.
12-12.30pm – Lunchtime: Sandwich, rice cakes or crisps (or a dunker), raisins, fresh fruit, mini sausage, yoghurt, biscuit
Play: Cars, stories, dance, paint, duplo, hide & seek
2pm ish Walk/ park/ play date (L may nap if he had a short nap in the day)
4-5pm Dinner. I try and make it a home cooked meal such as spaghetti bolognese, hot pot, toad in the hole, meat & two veg.
Self play (if early tea)
5.30pm Bath
Play upstairs with mummy &daddy if he's home
6.30- 7.30pm Bed
Describe your day in three words…
Typical day would be crazy, fun and busy
What is the highlight of your day?
I have a couple, is that allowed? The first is when the boy comes in and says good morning mummy, second when I hear the boys laughing whilst playing together, after bath time when we have quality play time & finally when the boys room has gone quiet at bedtime!
Thank you Laura, I really appreciate you taking the time to let us all know what you and the boys get up to during the day. If you want to read more about Laura and her family then please take a look at her blog http://mummytoboyz.
Laura is also on Facebook: https://www.

You can also follow Laura on Twitter: @Mummytoboyz
Thanks for reading.
The L's Mum.

The Duel qualifying races used to set the field for the Daytona 500 ran under the lights for the first time Thursday night. For 299.5 miles there was great racing but very little drama; that happened in the last few feet.
Matt Kenseth led 31 of 60 caution free laps to win the first Duel in a thrilling three wide finish. The second Duel, won by Denny Hamlin was just as sedate, that was until the final lap.
Daytona 500 pole sitter Matt Dillon held the lead at the start of the first Duel. It didn't take long for the outside lane to settle down and pull ahead, while a group on the inside was trying to make up ground. Cole Whitt who had crashed in practice the day before and needed to race his way into the 500, was in seventh early in a back up car. By lap 7 the field was in a single line.
Greg Biffle who had been fighting for the lead at the start found himself at the back of the field by lap 8. By lap 13 Kenseth was leading a line of cars on the inside and were slowly making their way forward. On lap 14 Dale Earnhardt Jr. dove in front of Kenseth and suddenly the inside lane came alive and Earnhardt shot to the lead; Kenseth was second Kevin Harvick third. The outside line scrambled to try and make their way forward on lap 19; Earnhardt moved to the top taking Kenseth with him.
Harvick dropped to the inside on lap 20 and was soon contesting for the lead, Earnhardt continued to block and held on to the lead. A couple of laps later Harvick and Earnhardt battled side by side. Harvick dropped back by lap 24 and soon the inside line started to fall back. Dillon moved to the lead on the inside line on lap 25 with Harvick just behind.
Kenseth dropped to the inside and took the lead on lap 27. Biffle followed into second but was side by side with Earnhardt. By lap 30, halfway, the outside line was again the fastest with Kenseth in the lead and Earnhardt second. Just prior to pit stops on lap 36 the field tightened up with Kenseth moving up and down to protect his lead. Pit stops began a lap later led by Kenseth. Earnhardt stayed out another lap and lead a second group in on the next lap.
After the field shook out, Kenseth was still leading, Harvick was second, Kasey Kahne was third with Marcos Ambrose fourth. Earnhardt was ninth. The field strung out into single file and stayed there as the laps wound down. With five to go the battles started outside the top 10 as those who needed to race into the 500 began to shuffle. Up front the lead group began to rumble.
A second line from fifth on back tried to make their way forward. The top six though broke away and began to separate themselves from the field. On the final turn of the final lap Harvick dove to the inside; Kahne dropped down to make it three wide coming to the line, Kenseth however was able to hold the two off to win.
"Kevin (Harvick) is one of the best," Kenseth said. "Kevin, Tony (Stewart), there's a few of those guys that you want to see behind you because you trust them to do the right things, but you also don't because they're so smart and I saw him laying back getting a run and he made the perfect move. I was just fortunate to get to his right rear early enough to get a big enough run to get me back to the finish line."
Harvick was second, Kahne third, Ambrose was fourth with Earnhardt fifth. Jose Wise was sixth. He Alex Bowman and Cole Whitt were able to race into the 500 field.
Aric Almirola, AJ Allmendinger, David Gilliland and Ryan Newman rounded out the top 10. in post race inspection, NASCAR threw out Harvick's time moving Kahne up to second and forcing Harvick to make the field on his qualifying speed or owners points.
Martin Truex Jr. led the field to the green for the second Duel, but it was Brad Keselowski who quickly took over the lead. Much like the first Duel the top line fell in single file. Keselowski led, Carl Edwards was second, Jeff Gordon third with Brian Scott fourth. By lap 11 the entire field was single file.
At the halfway point the field was split in two with the top 11 cars lead by Keselowski, Edwards, Gordon, Scott and Kurt Busch. A half second back a second group led by David Ragan held station.
Pit stops started on lap 36 as the entire field with the exception of Denny Hamlin and Casey Mears came in. NASCAR said leader Keselowski was speeding during the stop and he was forced to serve a pass through penalty. Hamlin came in on lap 39 and served his penalty. When the stops and penalty shook out, Hamlin was in the lead with Busch second, Gordon third; Johnson and Edwards battled for fifth; meanwhile on the backstretch Keselowski saw his night go from bad to worse as he slowed with a flat tire.
The leaders held station as the laps wound down, with Hamlin leading four Hendrick powered Chevy's. With three laps to go, the leaders held fast as behind them outside the top ten battled for position. With two laps to go, Mears slowed out of gas.
On the final corner of the final lap Jamie McMurray and Johnson got together in turn four after Johnson's Chevy ran out of fuel, setting off a huge crash that involved seven cars including Johnson, Clint Bowyer who was sent for a barrel roll and Truex Jr., whose car was destroyed in a ball of fire forcing him to a back up car and to the rear of the field from the front row for the Daytona 500.
"I think the 48 (Jimmie Johnson) ran out of gas," Bowyer said. "I knew he was saving gas coming to the green. It's too bad to tear cars up like that. That was one of the wildest flips I've ever had. I think we would have been just fine if I hadn't hit the grass right here. Dammit!"
Hamlin, who went to victory in last Saturday nights Sprint Unlimited, won under caution, Gordon was second, Busch third, Paul Menard fourth and Brian Scott fifth.
"It was fairly uneventful," Hamlin said of his race. "Really the pit stop sequence was what got us upfront and obviously our car was strong enough to hold it. What I was most worried about is obviously when you have such a strong car like you have on Saturday night that we had in the Unlimited you get a little bit spoiled and you worry about what you're going to have for the 500. But obviously this right here shows that we've got some great speed and a car capable of winning the Daytona 500."
Among those drivers who needed to race their way into the 500 that made the field were Michael Waltrip, Cole Whitt, Parker Kligerman, Brian Scott, and Landon Cassill. Terry and Bobby Labonte will also be in the field.

These are pictures that my wife and I took in Xining, China. These are just a select few of the pictures that we took. Our hope with these books are to show the many faces of people in China, and to give friends and family a look into our daily lives.
This book has pictures in the back of Shasta and I, which we added for our parents.
My wife and I are currently living in China and going to school to learn Chinese. We live in what used to be Tibet and so we have a very wide range of people groups in our region. My hope and desire is to show the many different faces of people around the world. Looking into the eyes of an 80 year old Tibetan is so amazing. So look and see what story their eyes tell you!

Lifelong Learning Plan Hijacked for Clinton Day Care
Private-sector child care providers fear being put out of business by the dramatic growth of 21st Century Community Learning Centers, a Department of Education program that has grown far beyond its original intent of boosting lifelong learning opportunities for all community members, particularly adults.
In just six years, what was envisioned as a modest $20 million effort to share public school resources with the whole community has been transformed into a $1 billion subsidy for public schools to extend their academic programs into out-of-school hours and to get into the child care business.
Expressing her concerns to Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo earlier this year, Andre Ransom of the Colorado Child Care Association explained that expanding government school-age child care programs will "weaken the private infrastructure that also cares for infant and toddler children"--an infrastructure that is supported by "surplus income" from the care of older children.
"Weaken the private center too much and they will go out of business," she warned.
Colorado Congressman Bob Schaffer, who conducted a hearing on the reauthorization of the Learning Center program in February, agreed. "If the government continues to expand its role in before- and after-school care, it will move all of the children out of private child care and into government child care," he said.
This year, Congress appropriated $453 million for the 21st Century Community Learning Centers program, up sharply from the $200 million spent in 1999, $40 million in 1998, and $1 million in 1997. In his State of the Union message earlier this year, President Clinton called for a further doubling of spending on the program, which he said "serves children after-school and during the summer."
Nearly 4,000 centers provide 1,600 after-school programs for nearly 600,000 children in 468 communities. The increased funding would add 6,000 new centers and provide extended-hour school services for approximately 2.5 million children per year.
"I have been astounded at the amount of money in this program that puts public schools in competition with the private sector," said Ransom.
Sometimes, the first time that private providers learn about the program is when they are asked to participate in a grant application. Nancy Goodell, executive director of After School Inc., and Pat O'Brien, president/CEO of the YMCA of Dane County, said they were asked to write letters of support for a 21st Century Grant for the Madison public schools--a grant they "had not seen and were not brought to the table to help craft."
"We are being asked to draft letters that could in essence eliminate programs we have worked more than two decades to develop," they wrote in response to the request, asking to be included in the grant process "in a meaningful way."
Testifying about the centers before Schaffer's February 10 hearing of the House Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Youth and Families, national YMCA executive Lynne Vaughan called on Congress to expand the eligibility of grant recipients "to include community-based organizations" such as the YMCA, Camp Fire Boys and Girls, and other community organizations. The resulting increased competition, she said, would improve the quality of all programs.
"Let's focus funding on kids, not institutions," said Vaughan.
The program's current focus on children is driven by the U.S. Department of Education's grant funding guidelines, which state: "In recognizing needs expressed by the education community, the Secretary will only fund programs that will, among other activities, provide expanded learning opportunities for children and youth." However, Congress's focus in creating the program was not education for children and youth, but lifelong learning opportunities primarily for adults.
When Congress passed legislation for the centers in 1994, the intent was to encourage poor rural and inner-city communities to make use of underutilized public school facilities and technology for re-educating and retraining adults for work in the modern global economy. The program was expected to cost around $20 million, according to former Congressman Steve Gunderson, who authored the program and now criticizes "the migration of the program far beyond its original intent" to serve other goals.
"The Department is misrepresenting the Program's mission," with false claims about the focus of the program, said Gunderson, testifying at the February 10 subcommittee hearing. After-school programs are important, he said, but "those programs were not the primary purpose of this legislation."
While the legislation was intended to provide incentives for schools to open their facilities and equipment for adults, Gunderson pointed out that most of the grant recipients are ill-equipped to serve an adult population, since they are elementary or middle schools rather than high schools. Instead of serving adults, he said the program was in danger of becoming little more than "glorified baby-sitting" for children.
During and after the hearing, Schaffer expressed concern that the 21st Century Community Learning Centers program was hurting private-sector child care providers. While recognizing the significant demand for before- and after-school programs, he questioned whether expanding the government's role in those programs was an appropriate public policy response.
"In any other industry in America, the government removes the barriers so that the private sector can come in and provide that service to consumers," he said. "Only in education and in child care does the government step in and run the business."
Ransom agreed. "What is really needed is a public policy that allows parents choice and does not lock them into school district-only programs."
But some groups may not want a different policy. When National PTA President Virginia Markell called for increasing the federal government's commitment to 21st Century Community Learning Centers at a House Budget hearing September 23, she also spoke out against vouchers and school choice.
"Congress should not divert public funds to private schools," she said, "but instead should address the immediate needs of schools such as . . . expanding before- and after-school learning opportunities."

Great value
I'd been looking for some gloves which offered decent protection but without a "power ranger" appearance. These are just the job and look even better with the black stitching.John Williams - Wirral
Solid quality
Comfortable from the start. I wore these on a trip to France recently and they performed well. They offer reassuring protection whilst still allowing comfort and movement. Fully adjustable with longer cuffs.Anonymous - Plymouth
Good feel, excellent delivery but
Order a size larger than what you are, I have a M hand and ordered a L and it was still snug. Lovely feel to the glove, no restrictions in finger/hand movement. Most people say these gloves are warm.MB - Worthing

|Ramsay has nearly 40 years of NHL experience as a player, coach and talent evaluator in seven different NHL organizations including the Atlanta Thrashers, Buffalo Sabres, Florida Panthers, Ottawa Senators, Philadelphia Flyers, Tampa Bay Lightning and Boston Bruins. "Craig is very well-respected in the hockey community and we're excited to add a coach of his caliber to our organization" said Dudley. "He is widely regarded as an excellent teacher and he is the right choice to help further develop our team and lead us to our ultimate goal." Most recently Ramsay served as a head coach for the Thrashers in the 2010-11 season and as an assistant coach for the Bruins from 2007 to 2010. While in Boston, Ramsay helped the Bruins reach the post-season each year, while capturing the Eastern Conference's best record during the 2008-09 season. The Bruins advanced to the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs in both 2009 and 2010. Prior to joining the Bruins, Ramsay served as an associate coach for the Tampa Bay Lightning from 2001 to 2007, earning a Southeast Division title and the Stanley Cup during the 2003-04 campaign. Ramsay also served as an assistant coach with the Philadelphia Flyers from 1998 to 2000. He was named interim head coach in February 2000, guiding the team to a 16-8-1-0 mark while claiming the Atlantic Division title with 105 points. Ramsay led the Flyers to the Eastern Conference Finals where they lost to the eventual Stanley Cup Champion New Jersey Devils in seven games. He remained behind the bench to begin the 2000-01 season before being replaced after 28 games with a 12-12-4-0 record.
|Before joining Philadelphia, Ramsay worked as an assistant coach for the Ottawa Senators (1996 to 1998) and the Florida Panthers (1993 to 1995). He began his coaching career with the Buffalo Sabres organization where he served as an assistant coach during the 1986-87 season and took over as interim head coach late in the year, posting a 25-37-6-0 record. Prior to leaving the Sabres in 1993, Ramsay also served as the team's director of player personnel and assistant general manager. Ramsay's NHL playing career spanned 14 seasons with the Buffalo Sabres from 1971 to 1985, earning 672 points (252 goals, 420 assists) in 1,070 career games. The Weston, Ontario, native twice reached a career high with 71 points and tallied eight straight 20-goal seasons for the Sabres from 1973 to 1981. He also appeared in 89 Stanley Cup Playoff games with the Sabres, posting 48 points (17 goals, 31 assists) in those contests. Ramsay, who was selected by Buffalo in the second round (19th overall) of the 1971 NHL Entry Draft, appeared in 776 consecutive games with the Sabres from 1973 to 1983, which ranks as the fourth longest consecutive games streak in NHL history. He was also named the recipient of the Frank J. Selke Trophy in 1985, given annually to the forward who best excels in the defensive aspects of the game. Ramsay began his professional career with the Cincinnati Swords of the American Hockey League during the 1971-72 season where he tallied 12 points (five goals, seven assists) in 19 games. During his career, Ramsay played alongside Thrashers General Manager Rick Dudley for a total of seven seasons with Cincinnati (1971-72) and Buffalo (1972-73 to 1974-95 and 1978-79 to 1980-81). Prior to his professional career, Ramsay played four junior seasons for the Peterborough Petes of the Ontario Hockey Association from 1967 to 1971, tallying 232 points (84 goals, 158 assists) in 206 games. Ramsay's best junior season came in 1970-71, when he earned 106 points (30 goals, 76 assists) in 58 games with Peterborough. Ramsay and his wife Susan have four children, sons Travis, Jad and Brendon and daughter Summer.

Foodies: Chef Michael Chiarello cooks up a new customized dining experience at Bottega
Never one to rest on his laurels, Chef Michael Chiarello has cooked up an interesting twist for foodies planning to enjoy a meal at his Yountville restaurant, Bottega.
Chiarello has just unveiled the 'Chef's Table', a custom dining experience offering diners five courses of "the very best of what Napa Valley has to offer on that particular day." Foodies who opt for the Chef's Table experience can expect to interact directly with the chef and wine director who will prepare a dinner dictated by the season's best produce and product available.
If you're looking for something more, you're able to have input into a menu that is even more customized and may feature uncommon ingredients and dishes not found on the regular menu. Same goes for the wine pairings–guests can "challenge the chef to cook a meal complementing a particular set of wines, a specific region, or prized bottles from their own collections." Apparently Chef Chiarello can't get enough of the cooking challenges following his appearance on Top Chef Masters. Note: for this level of customization, you have to provide notice at least one week in advance.
As you may expect, the menu and pricing will vary nightly, but most will include four courses plus a cheese course and we're told the average cost will be about $70 per person for dinner plus $30 per person for the optional wine pairing.
There will be two seatings, the first between 5:30pm – 6:30pm and the second between 8pm – 9pm. Parties of 6 – 12 are able to take the entire chef's table, and parties of four can enjoy a communal experience.

Jones v. Meehan
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Jones v. Meehan, 175 U.S. 1 (1899)
Jones v. Meehan
No. 7
Argued April 27-28, 1898
Decided October 30, 1899
A good title to parts of the lands of an Indian tribe may be granted to individuals by a treaty between the United States and the tribe, without any act of Congress, or any patent from the Executive authority of the United States. The question in every case is whether the terms of the treaty are such as to manifest the intention of the parties to make a present grant to the persons named.
A treaty between the United States and an Indian tribe must be construed not according to the technical meaning of its words to learned lawyers, but in the sense in which they would naturally be understood by the Indians.
When the United States, in a treaty with an Indian tribe, and as part of the consideration for the cession by the tribe of a tract of country to the United States, make a reservation to a chief or other member of the tribe of a specified number of sections of land, whether already identified or to be surveyed and located in the future, the treaty itself converts the reserved sections into individual property; the reservation, unless accompanied by words limiting its effect, is equivalent to a present grant of a complete title in fee simple, and that title is alienable by the grantee at his pleasure, unless the United States, by a provision of the treaty, or of an act of Congress, have expressly or impliedly prohibited or restricted its alienation.
The effect of the Treaty of October 2, 1863, between the United States and the Red Lake and Pembina bands of Chippewa Indians, by which those bands ceded to the United States all their right, title and interest in a large tract of country, and by which
"there shall be set apart from the tract .hereby ceded a reservation of six hundred and forty acres near the mouth of the Thief River for the chief Moose Dung"
was to grant him an alienable title in fee in the quantity of land at the designated place, subject only to its selection in due form and to the definition of its boundaries by survey and patent.
The right of inheritance at the time of the death of the grantee in 1872 in land granted in fee by the United States by an Indian treaty to a member of an Indian tribe, whose tribal organization was still recognized by the government of the United States, is controlled by the laws, usages and customs of the tribe, and not by the law of the state in which the land lies, nor by any action of the Secretary of the Interior.
The construction of treaties is the peculiar province of the judiciary, and, except in cases purely political, Congress has no constitutional power to settle the rights under a treaty or to affect titles already granted by the treaty itself.
The case is stated in the opinion.

Healthcare Solutions, an Atlanta-based health services company, is raising the bar on its service level with the recent acquisition of the pharmacy management and health services company, Modern Medical. The acquisition represents the union of two healthcare companies with a strong commitment to reducing medical costs for patients, through a comprehensive array of medical products and services.
About Healthcare Solutions
Healthcare Solutions is the parent company of Cypress Care, ScripNet and Procura Management. The company offers a wide range of medical services, including case and network management, auto injury claims, specialty service management and medical bill review. The company also provides pharmacy benefit management, which is where the mission of the company actually began.
In addition to a variety of management services, Healthcare Solutions also offers a wide range of medical supplies, including diagnostic imaging, prosthetics and orthotics. Language and transportation services are still more of the possibilities provided by this extensive company. The wide range of products and services also means a diverse customer base for a company that strives to provide customized customer care to every client it works with.
Introducing Modern Medical
Modern Medical is considered a leader in the workmen's compensation industry. This company provides a full range of services for a variety of customers, including insurance companies, third-party administrators and case management companies. The company was established in 1986, as a provider of a medical equipment banking program.
Throughout more than two decades, Modern Medical has been evolving into a full-service medical company, providing everything necessary to manage workmen's compensation cases. The company is dedicated to ensuring the best prices on services, without sacrificing high quality customer care. Their philosophy is a good match for Healthcare Solutions.
Acquisition Benefits
The acquisition of Modern Medical will allow Healthcare Solutions to provide a broad range of services in workmen's compensation, in addition to the services and products the company already provides. Healthcare Solutions also believes the addition of Modern Medical will be a good fit, due to their commitment to affordable medical services and high quality customer care.
"The acquisition of Modern Medical further strengthens Healthcare Solutions' capabilities in the management and delivery of pharmacy and specialty healthcare services to an increasingly broad array of customer segments," David A. George, Healthcare Solutions CEO, stated in a press release. "The addition of Modern Medical, with its strong cultural values and long-standing reputation for superior customer service, enhances the company's ability to develop and expand its innovative solutions within both the worker's compensation and auto markets and reinforces the company's unique position as the premier technology-based platform company serving these markets."
Healthcare Solutions understands the bottom line in providing stellar customer service in the healthcare industry. First, provide customers with a wide range of products and services, so that they can customize their purchases to their unique needs. Second, focus on the cost of the services, to ensure the quality of healthcare is not compromised by high prices that cannot be met by all patients. This new acquisition positions Healthcare Solutions even more effectively to provide the highest quality of care and service to its customers.

Hey if you wanna make a site and post scripts there, by all means go for it. But put on your flame protected suit, just be ready for it. I'll be more than happy (how can that be?) to give ya permission, no prob there.... i'll even be interested in writing more if they are useful.
Best way to combat the different servers stuff for scripts is to write another one, the exact same way, but have it add more waits, or take em away. Then just exec one of em, if it doesn't work, exec the other. A good habit is to add the line;
unbind X
Add that to the top of the script, this will unbind the key, so you can exec another script and bind it to that key without ill effects from other binds. The difference was the lag i'm betting. How well did the one with the yaw_speed work? Did ya try both? was there a difference in both of them? I've been spending my time playing warcraft3 and nwn, so i haven't tested these out. But there's a lan party this saturday that i'll be at where they will be playing jk2. I suppose i can show em some tricks.
cvar print out.... you can either ;
A, type cmdlist in console and write em down or do a screenshot
B, open up your mpconfig in wordpad and save it somewhere else as a backup file. That file has many commands. I suggest binding every command in the game to something so they all show up when you look at the cfg file.
C, find the game engine (modified q3) and search for a scripting site for that game. The commands tend to be the same, with some minor differences and/or add-ons
D, get the sdk from the dev site and see what they got in it. My guess is they have everything you need to make a mod, so it would be safe to say they will have all the commands somewhere.
I'm on a role, any other requests???
I would like to die peacefully and in my sleep, just like my grandfather. Not screaming in panic like the passingers in the car he was driving.

In his homily for Palm Sunday today, Pope Francis urged the congregation to spend their Holy Week meditating on Christ's Passion, suffering, and death. "We have heard the Gospel reading of the Passion of the Lord. Only, it does us good to ask a question: Who am I? Who am I before my Lord? Who am I before Jesus who enters festively into Jerusalem," the Pope asked pointedly in his first Holy Week reflection of 2014. "This week moves towards the mystery of the death of Jesus and of his resurrection," the Pope reminded. "Where is my heart and which of these persons am I most like? It is this question that accompanies us throughout the week."
The Papal liturgy for Palm Sunday was held in a sun-drenched St. Peter's Square before a capacity crowd waving palm branches in honor of Christ the King. Reflecting that many in the crowd who were shouting "Hosanna to the Son of David" on Sunday would, by Friday, be calling openly for Jesus' crucifixion and death on Friday, the Pope said that we might ask ourselves "am I like one of them."
"Am I like Judas, who pretends to love and kisses the master to hand him over, to betray him? Am I a traitor? Or am I like the disciples who did not understand what it was to betray Jesus? They did not understand anything...they fell asleep while the Lord suffered. Is my life asleep?" The Pope said that many are like Pontius Pilate, who see a difficult situation and find themselves faced with the fact that the right decision may not be the popular one and would rather wash their hands of the situation than "assume responsibility." The Holy Father said that we could be like a much more courageous figure such as Simon of Cyrene. "Am I like Simon of Cyrene who was returning from work, tired, but had the good will to to help the Lord carry the cross," asked the Holy Father. Am I like to courageous women, and like the mother of Jesus, who were there, suffering in silence?"
At the conclusion of the Mass, the Pope lead the assembled crowds in praying the Angelus.

Sager, David
Sager, David, trombonist, historian; b. Takoma Park, Maryland, 22 March 1958. His parents are Beverly Stevens (b. 1927) and Robert Sager (b. 1926).

A group of History and Archaeology students from the Kinneret College on the Sea of Galilee visited the tomb of St Peter, who began his career as a fisherman on the Sea of Galilee. They were accompanied by Prof. of History of Early Christianity, Dr. Jakov Ashkenazi and the Head of the Institute for Galilean Archaeology Dr. Mordechay Aviam.
The visit was organized by the Israeli Embassy's cultural officer, Mz. Barbara Bianchi as part of the embassy's academic exchange activities.
Their visit to the Necropolis under St. Peter's Basilica was made possible by Cardinal Angelo Comastri, president of Fabbrica de San Pietro and introduced by Prof. Pietro Zander, who has written a book on the site and who greeted them on the Cardinal's behalf.

this is the address of a GF fansite
I am starting to make. I hope to have
most of it's shell built by next week.
(would appreciate any feed back)
Calaverablanca is a GF fansite
which also is going to slightly
parody film noir movies such as
(which every GF member of this forum
should see, because you will appreciate
year 2 all the more for seeing it.)
also am looking for submissions
for this site. Grim Skins.(especially)
icq skins,
aol messenger,
yahoo messenger
icq sound schemes,
anything like that.
or any leads on where
to get skining tools.
I have skinamp so can make
winamp skins, and I can also
make an msn messenger skin,
but would like to the same
for the other instant chat
any and all authors
of submissions will be
properly credited
for their work.
like I said,
please if you can go see
my site, and tell me what you think
but more importantly rent or buy
You'll be very glad that you did.
Looking better all the time, man. I'm sending you that mural shot tonight.
thank you.
I have flowcharted everything out
first and done story boards
I never just paste and put a site up
spur of thought.
so the shell or form goes or comes
first then the content.
and since I unfortunately have way too
much time on my hands
I can upkeep my site nicely
once it is made.
like stated any and all ideas
or stuff you want to contribute
will be given serious thought.
and fully credited.
i don't mind helping hands.
once rest of site is up
you will have better idea
of what may or may not be good
for Calaverablanca.:cool:
This just keeps getting better and better!
Tell me what you want and I'll get it for you - sounds, pictures, anything. I'll even search the net for Casablanca stuff if you want. Just make sure you have a reliable email address.
open invite all members
anything any time send to
email: email@example.com
or until aug 15th
hotmail has to be under 1.2mb
spidercom bigger but not sure.
today and tomorrow going to work
on site like a maniac
look monday night july 22nd EST
for much more progress.
peace out calaveras everywhere!
Did that mural shot come through yet?
see senoir, muchos nachos!
site is looking great....keep up the good work ;)
some new pages went up tonight
by tomorrow should have finished
up to the main menu page.
(and it is kind of obvious,
but once main menu page is in
people who do not want to repeat
intro section should bookmark
menu page instead. Unless you like
going through the front room
and the lobby, and all those pages.)
having fun making it.
and it is nice that some have seen it.
anyway it is late off to bed
I have another busy day
of htmling tomorrow.
as of this post tonight I have reached the main menu page. when it is done aka tomorrow you will be able to bookmark it to avoid going over and over the introduction section unless you really like doing so. hey look at that word wrap does exist. Hmmm...
I still think I will
space things out however
being a bit spaced out myself.
evil public libraries, evil ISP
my ISP is down again,
and I am at my local public library.
I will not be posting much other than
this until I get back online.
just wanted to let people know
where I have gotten to.
For some of you NOT seeing my posts
will be a bit of a holiday.
The good thing about Not being online
is that I am getting lots of work done
on Calaverablanca so by the time
I next post, you will all see more
fansite noir stuff.
And the library is evil because
a) the glare on the monitors
make them almost impossible to read.
b) to discourage people from
visiting forums such as this one,
all the screens show black small type
on dark the GF2 background.
so reading any post is useless.
I am typing this basically in the dark
of a well lit room.
I will be back online
as soon as possible.
in the meantime
Hi! to Kaldaravera
and High! to Gendo.
and pleasant greetings to anyone else
who might actually miss my presence
Haunting the Forums.
You should join AOL, Darth. Their prices are reasonable and they're hardly ever down. And look - they let you keep the little piece of brain they took out... Hello in there! Hello! Who's that man over there...?
:jawa AOL is evil the you got mail man
frightens me I have joined 3webxs it is
reasonably priced.
as for calaverablanca i will be finally
since I am back online updating site
today at 12midnight-ish est sat aug 10th
so anyone waiting look on monday for new stuff. and very glad to be back haunting
the forums again.
Welcome back, man.
calaverablanca is now up in shell
and soul, it will be fleshed out
if you can do such a thing to bones
in days to come, I hope people will
visit and send me feed back,
especially I hope people
check out Astrology Fandago,
I am curious to know your sign?
(and thanks Gendo glad to be back)
(also hope you had a good holiday
Tall Guy, being away I did not know
you were away.:) )
I've updated the main GFN page with news about the site....which is looking great btw!:D:D:D
spent a fruitless day
with wonky sound wav's.
tried to convert wav's
from GF into smaller mp3's
for easier download,
they sounded hopeless
NOT GOOD (so I mean BAD)
I am using win98's
soundrecorder utility,
when opening a file it says:
radio quality
pcm 22,050HZ
16bit, stereo
these files are fine for HD
but too big for upload/download
purposes; any help?
PM me, and be patient
being a pakled
I will need
a walkthrough for sure.
Only if you are able,
and patient.
my fan site would appreciate
this much need help & contribution.
The Good the Bad and the Ugly
The Good I learnt how to make
a walking avitar, my first one!!!!!
It is Celso staring in:
"Deadman Walking."
The bad, well not really bad,
I am ordering my screen saver
and registered version of Hypersnap
tomorrow, or today,
so soon I will have soul savers
for people on the forums who want
a GF screen saver.
and the Ugly, me thinks Geocities
has shut me out. I am sure I have been
banned from there; see metallus there
is still hope.:D
my fansite is larger than 10mb
which is all Geocities gives you.
In fact it is bigger than
a geocities pro site of 25mb
I can't access my pages
or upload it says I have reached
a limit (theirs I suspect)
and they want me to contact them.
well I think Calaverablanca
just like CMOTD (discworld)
is going to have to set up shop
elsewhere. so I may be cyber nomadic
for a while unless someone knows
a good place I can get free hosting
and a lot of it.
anyway thanks goes out to Kjolen
for helping me learn how to make
a walking avitar.
Good news!
either geocities was down
or busy or I exceeded my
daily transfer rate (possible)
but I can access it again.
Bebop Bones
the music section
for now is done.
(need to work on mp3's)
next I will be taking on
year 1 of Snappy Patter
and year 1 of Skeleton Closets.
then onto soul savers
and deathtop themes
for year 1.
*and of course updating
astrology fandango,
and next months calendar for sept.*
"any comments on what you'ld
like to see sept's calendar being?
I think Brennis and the tube room
since sept is labor day."
also does anyone look at
their grim horoscopes?
yes, no, maybe?
do you like this,
hate it,
think it's dumb?
if it is not popular
then I will not waste time
or space doing it,
I thought it would be funny
that's all.
Chowchilla Bye for now.
Hey, can you make me an animated avatar? Maybe of Sanspoof (Memorial-wise) with a rider on back? (Sanspoof fave character btw, and who cares if I ain't seen him? He's cute).
The site's great. You done a music section out yet? Because I can get you lots and lots of GF music if you want.
And I haven't seen kuch of Casablanca, but as soon as I saw Year 2 I knew there was some noir referance.
I'm also working on my GF site, 'The Cat Track'. It will also hopefully have a forum, but I doubt it. It might be done soon, hopefully.
Keep up the good work on Calaverablanca!
yes I will do you a avi,
still perfecting them,
mine I see has a foot
that sort of disappears
need to improve version three,
but yes will do it.
???who is sanspoof
a cat or something???
yes gasp I am on the forums
and do not know but anything
past year one (except Lupe)
I know nothing about.
I have a few tracks up,
at calaverablanca
really need mp3's
of gf data music
and mp3's off OST
for site posting.
thanks for the feedback
Give me a list of what you want put in mp3, and I'll whip 'em up with razorlame in no time.
been working on a set of gf avi's
going to be put on my deathtop themes
portion of calaverablanca, should be
done by sunday, at least some of them;
and as stated befoe if you would like
custom avi let me know.
Manny here is my version3 avi
I think I am starting
to get the hang of it.
Oh my dear, dully god! Not even past Year 1??? Where are you stuck? I'll tell you how to get out!
Oh, and Sanspoof is... or was... a cat in Maximino's Cat Track. But he was killed by a blimp (Very sad :( ), so they put up a memorial of him. A very tacky one, but a memorial none the less. Umm... but what do cats look like in the land of the dead? Ah, never mind. I just wish he would be seen somewhere. Maybe appear somehow in GF 2? I would like that. I really would...
I like to savour
my game playing
plus between life
getting in the way
ISP troubles
posting on the forum
and working loads on year one stuff
for calaverablanca
just have not had time.
is sanspoof that weird cat
in the case?
I could put his head
on a human body
he is too long to make
a good avi
he would be so small
and horizontal
you would not see him
if you like
I will make you
a walking upright sanspoof.
yeah, alright. I thought the rider would be a bad idea. Can you do a smaller version of him, standing upright? Like a plush toy, sorta? Maybe him clapping or summit? I dunno. I'm witing to lose this Purple Tentacle av.
Eggplant's Avitar Adoption Agency
by the end of tomorrow EST
in the Deathtop themes portion
of Calaverablanca at least

downloading at the soul saver portion
of my fan site.
Not To Big...the servers too small
hi, update:eek:
made my first soul saver,
it was too big geocities
only allows 5mb transfer,
so I revised and revised until I got it
under 5, but still won't take it
keeps timing out on me
(now is when I miss having high speed)
I will try again tonight,
but may have to make another smaller one,
sorry if some of you were waiting
If it is any consolation the soul saver
I made for my computer I like.:D
The Beat Goes On
FTP via geocities a nightmare,
but the beat goes on.
I am downloading or rather
uploading the music portion
of calaverablanca.
so far in the BeBop Bones portion
of my fan site,
the misc portion is complete
and year one
parts 4,5 and half of 3
is done.
still have year 1 parts 1,2
and half of 3 to do.
also have year 2 ready to be
FTP'ed as soon as I finish
year 1. then I will do
years 3 and 4.
but at 56k and through
geocities FTP program
it is nasty.
but I do this all for you.:cool:
BeBop Bones
BeBopBones the music portion
of my fan site is being completed
this week, by next saturday hopefully.
friends with high speed are going to
help upload the files quicker.
56k is so very slow.
but there are a lot of music tracks
to deal with to boot.
I had no idea the game had
so many lines of dialogue
and great music.
(I kind of knew but thinking it
and uploading it are two different
things all together.
anyway almost every single bit of
music from Grim Fandango is there
for the downloading of any GF fan
whom might want it.
just keep checking because if a file
you want is missing now it should be
there by next weekend.
BeBop your Bones and Save Your Soul
as of now 99% of all the
music for the BeBop Bones
section of Calaverablanca
is uploaded and ready for
downloading. and tomorrow
saturday night midnight EST
4 Soul Savers will be uploaded.
in the Year One portion of
my fansite too.
then next I will complete
Year One of the Skeleton Closet
plus make Octobers calendar too.
then I will work on my first
Deathtop theme.

Ford made a significant safety and crashworthy improvement to fuel tanks being installed in its cars two years after the manufacture of the car in which Austintown Patrolman Ross J. Linert was badly burned, a Ford engineer said.
"Ultimately, what we did was we got more metal folded over," Steve Haskell, an engineer overseeing fuel tank manufacture in Dearborn, Mich., told Bradley M. Lakin, a lawyer for Linert and his wife, Brenda.
Haskell's video testimony came Thursday on the third day of the jury trial of a multimillion-dollar lawsuit the Linerts filed against the Ford Motor Co.
The suit stemmed from a fiery, 116-mph, rear-end crash caused by a drunken driver, who also survived the crash, at 1:08 a.m. Nov. 11, 2007, on Meridian Road under Interstate 680.
Linert was driving a 2005 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor cruiser at 35 mph, resulting in a net crash speed of 81 mph, said James Feeney, a Ford lawyer.
Visiting Judge Thomas P. Curran of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court is presiding over the trial, which is expected to last two to three weeks before an eight-member jury.
Linert was burned because of an undesirable behind-the-rear axle tank location and because fuel leaked from that tank after the crash due to the thinness of a metal crimp at the hole where fuel leaves the tank and goes to the engine, Lakin said.
In October 2007, Ford boosted crimp overlap thickness of 3 millimeters to 3.5 millimeters to 4 millimeters to 4.5 millimeters, Haskell said, adding that the boost made the joint stronger.
"It made it more robust or safer," as intended, Haskell said, quickly adding: "We don't build anything that's not safe."
Haskell, a manufacturing process engineer, was quick to add, however, that he is not a product-design engineer or a crash-testing expert.
One of two alternate jurors was excused from the case Thursday morning because he would have suffered substantial wage losses had he remained on the jury.
Sounds like Ford manufactured another PINTO in this Crown Victoria.
Looks like Linert has a case after all the naysaying here on vindy.com.
Good luck Ross!
It wasnt just the pinto, the f series pickups had the tank mounted behind the cab which would explode on impact, thus being why they moved it into the frame rails. Ford knows its a problem and doesnt want to admit it. if it wasnt a problem, why would you stop making the crown victoria in 2012 when you know that it is your top selling car with nearly 400,000 on the road right now.of all of the deathes and fire caused by this car, not everyone is a rearend collision, some are side and all are at differant speeds. 2 years ago ohio state highway patrol had a police officer loose control of his crown vic and strike a pole. Do you rally think he hit that pole at 81 mph? however his car did ignite causing his death...
It is a no win situation with you ambulance chasers. If Ford re-engineered the Crown Victoria and placed the gas tank between the axles, that would not necessarily guarantee a safer vehicle. That's because the gas tank then would be vulnerable to side-impact collisions, which occur more frequently than rear-end crashes.
The National Highway Safety Agency also found that the Crown Victoria met federal standards to withstand 30 mph rear collisions without leaking fuel. And it documented plenty of high-speed rear crashes in which the Crown Victoria lost little or no fuel.
At 116 mpg (81mph net speed) the odds of a fiery crash are great. They are greater for police vehicles because they are often parked when hit (although this vehicle was not).
It's not about being an ambulance chaser. It's about consumer protection. Something as simple as a few millimeters of steel would have solved this problem...a minimal added cost to production to save a life.
How much is a life worth to you UCS?
The National Highway Safety ADMINISTRATION found that WITH the fire suppresion installed on the crown victoria that the car WOULD infact withstand a rear end collision at 81.9 mph. They have known about this issue well before the 2005 crown vic that Ross was driving was built. The fire suppresion system was available and tested by the NTSA in 2007. If the fire suppression system had been tested and installed on Ross's crown vic, that was hit at 81 mph. there is an almost definate chance that his car would not have caught fire.
Jackson does your car have a fire suppresion system?? NO because it is not necessary under normal circumstances. This was an extreme collision and even a few millimeters of steel would not guarantee safety. He was the one that continued to drive a police vehicle that he claims to be "unsafe."
awwww Jackson has the facts and so does Ross. Hang it up UCS. Your opinion isn't borne out here.
He claims it to be unsafe because he almost died in a fire inside of it. That's pretty unsafe to me.
Ross is a personal friend of mine, i also have seen the vehicle inside and out which most people havn't. i'v spent two days researching vehicles. Let me as you a question. If you went to school and got into the career field that you wanted to, but were only given the choice of one piece of equiment to use. would you use it or quit your job? Ross had no choice in the vehicles he was able to drive. Just like the state patrol. You are probably totally unaware of this, but the state patrol is going over to the chargers, silver chargers, this decision started when the state patrolman died 2 years ago. When you make a vehicle that is going to be used for police work and you know that it is suseptable to any type of an accident, then you need to make sure you have your ducks in a row and a safe vehicle for police officers to drive in. If there is a problem with it, then you recall them until the problem is fixed. In 1978 a ford engineer stated that it was a problem and ford chose to do nothing about it. To ford it was about money and reputation, you think that a massiverecall on police vehicles all over the country would have made ford look good? This isnt just about ross but about all of the others that have lost their lives or who's lives have been turned upside down because of this vehicle.
