Friday, the Marlins announced Double-A Jacksonville shortstop Ozzie Martinez is the Organizational Player of the Year. Suns teammate Elih Villanueva received the Pitcher of the Year award.
The Suns probably don't win their second straight Southern League title without these guys. Martinez scored 90 runs, with28 doubles, four triples, five home runs and 45 RBI for Jacksonville. He finished tied for first in the Southern League in runs scored and second in hits (156). With Hanley Ramirez out the final two and a half weeks, Martinez got a handful of at-bats with the Marlins and batted .326 in 14 games (10 starts).
Villanueva went 14-4 with a 2.26 ERA (179.0 IP/45 ER) in 28 starts, allowing 137 hits and a .212 average against. He also tossed four complete games (three shutouts) and led the Southern League in ERA, finished second in wins, and first in innings pitched. The Marlins' 27thround pick in the 2008 draft out of Florida State, Villanueva was named Marlins Minor League Pitcher of the Month for July and August….
** Also on Friday, the Marlins outrighted infielder Donnie Murphy to Triple-A New Orleans. Murphy ended the season on the disabled list with a wrist injury.

New Hope Primitive Baptist Church
Fort Worth, Texas
The New Hope Primitive Baptist Church is located in east Fort Worth, just off of Interstate 30 and Loop 820. The address of the Church is 7200 Kuban Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76113.
The history of the New Hope Primitive Baptist Church can be traced back to the late 1950's, when those who would later form the New Hope Church were actually members at the Paradise Primitive Baptist Church in Arlington, Texas. The Paradise Primitive Baptist Church was constituted in 1956 and their pastor at the time was Elder Robert A. "Bob" Moore.
For various reasons, Elder Moore and several members of the Paradise Primitive Baptist Church left the Church in 1963 to begin meeting on their own. Elder Hylton Crain was then called as pastor at Paradise PBC that same year and would serve the Church for many more years.
The group that left (still calling themselves "Paradise Primitive Baptist Church"), began using the building facilities of the Little Vine Primitive Baptist Church to meet in. This location was just off Highway 287 in south Fort Worth around the Kennedale area. Due to doctrinal differences, the two groups of people didn't worship together – but instead those who left Arlington would merely use the building on the two Sunday's a month that the Little Vine congregation did not meet.
Over the next few years, the Little Vine Primitive Baptist Church would move to a location on Kuban Street in Fort Worth. Also, the Little Vine Church did not have a pastor during this time, so many of their members would come on the off Sunday's to hear Eld. Moore preach. In time, the two bodies would merge. All of those coming from the Little Vine Church were re-baptized.
Around this same time and during a conference in 1966 - the Church voted unanimously to change their name to the "New Hope Primitive Baptist Church". For many years after that, the New Hope Church did not fellowship with many of the area Churches. This began to change in the late 1980's and early 1990's. Eld. Moore remained pastor until his death in March of 1991 and the New Hope Church called Eld. George Walker as pastor the following month.
Elder George Walker still serves the Church as pastor to this very day. (

The New Hope Primitive Baptist Church hosts services every Sunday. Song service begins at 10:30am and preaching services at 11:00am. The preaching appointments are as follows:
1st – Elder George Walker
2nd – Elder George Walker
3rd – Elder Shane Nix
4th – Elder George Walker
5th – Elder George Walker
Each first weekend in October the New Hope Church hosts and annual meeting. This October, the annual meeting will be a "singing" on Saturday morning and afternoon.

Happy fourth of July from Lea Michele.
The 'official' Glee hacker tops its second successful hack this week. First, Chris Colfer and now Michele? Aw come on!
As Popdust previously reported, Colfer's Twitter account was hacked. The star 'announced' that he will not be returning to the show's next season and will explain himself in the near future. While hearts were broken and fans were in shock for a good hour; turns out, it wasn't Colfer. Gleeeeee with joy!
Let's talk about how Michele celebrates her July fourth this year. By connecting with her fans, duh! It's often that celebrities want the opportunity to open up to fans before they open up to the media—and that's totally understandable; considering the fans make it happen for them. Michele 'tweeted' the following message:
"Before this gets out to the media, I would like to announce to my fans that I am pregnant #BabyBoy"
Just moments after, the tweet was nowhere to be found. Despite the hack, it wasn't going to ruin Michele's day. She even cracked a joke on Twitter.
"I was HACKED! Guess @chriscolfer and I should have known better then to make our passwords the names of our cats:)"
Followed by the joke, Michele wished all her fans to have a happy and fun July fourth. Aww! Bless her heart.
Now it's up to you Popdust readers to take a guess which Glee star is the hacker's next target? Take the poll below.
Stay tuned to Popdust.com for more Lea Michele updates. Also, feel free to follow @Popdust and @vivianxo67 on Twitter.

In December 1991 World Bank chief economist Lawrence Summers signed an internal memo that seemingly endorsed the economic logic of polluting poor countries. As a policy matter, the memo defended "MORE migration of the dirty industries to the LDCs [Less Developed Countries]" for three reasons. First, it was less costly for "lowest wage countr[ies]" to absorb a higher share of the world's pollution and toxic waste because the "foregone earnings" arising from "health impairing pollution" in these countries were so low. Second, since African countries "were vastly UNDER-polluted…and their air quality…probably inefficiently low," exporting some "initial increments" of pollution to Africa "would probably have very low cost." And third, pollution reduction "could be welfare enhancing" to people in rich countries where "[t]he demand for clean environment for aesthetic and health reasons" was higher than in poor countries.
When the memo got leaked to the public in February 1992, the reactions were swift. Environmentalists denounced it; the World Bank disavowed it; and Summers quickly disowned it. "[T]he way those thoughts were expressed [in the memo]," Summers admitted in 1998, "wasn't constructive in any sense" when discussing "real issues about trade-offs between growth and the environment."
Despite the controversy, Summers has made a compelling argument in the so-called "toxic memo" for how we can tackle the world's pollution challenges. Does it make economic sense to have a poor country share a rich country's pollution? Maybe it does.
According to the first fundamental theorem of welfare economics (FTW), when commodities are traded at publicly known prices and all agents are price takers, the market will find a way to ensure allocation is such that no one is made better off without simultaneously making at least one person worse off. That, in a nutshell, is what economists call Pareto efficiency. It's Pareto efficient to transfer pollution from the rich to the poor provided that it is implemented through the competitive market.
Suppose that pollution is a commodity that can be traded at a publicly known price in the international market. By FTW, pollution will be Pareto efficiently allocated. Since multiple Pareto-efficient outcomes can result from a competitive market, it is possible that one such outcome is an inequitable allocation of pollution between rich and poor countries.
Let's consider Nauru, a small Micronesian island country in the South Pacific with a population of 9,434 and a land area of 21 square kilometers. Nauru has a per capita GDP of $5,000 (2005 est.), placing it below 159 other countries. Nauruan life expectancy is 61.96 years for men and 69.47 years for women, significantly below the average life expectancy of 80 years in the industrialized world. Despite these statistics, the country is unique for being one of the world's smallest polluters. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Nauru released an annual average of 110.33 metric tons of CO2 into the atmosphere from 1991-2010.
Now let's consider the United States with its population of 314 millions and land area of 9.8 million square kilometers. The U.S. has a per capita GDP of $51,749 (2012 est.), placing it above 180 countries in the world. American life expectancy is 76.19 years for men and 81.17 years for women. Unlike Nauru, the United States is one of the world's biggest polluters, releasing an annual average of 5,416,659 metric tons of CO2 into the atmosphere between 1991 and 2010.
Given these glaring contrasts between the United States and Nauru, it is logical under FTW for the United States to sell its pollution to Nauru in the free market. Assuming no logistic and transaction costs, the United States and Nauru can enter into a bilateral agreement in which the United States would "dump" 100,000 metric tons of its CO2 in Nauru every year for the next 10 years, and in return the United States would compensate Nauru with a negotiated annual payment of, say, $100 million to offset potential health risks Nauruans would face. Under such arrangement, Americans are better off because they are breathing in less pollution, while Nauruans are no worse off because they are being compensated accordingly for any pollution-induced health impairments.That's Pareto efficiency.
Although the above argument is meant to help us think about the challenge of global pollution, it is not meant to be taken seriously as a practical policy prescription for two reasons. First, it is unrealistic to expect no logistic and transaction costs. Logistically, we do not (yet) have the technology to capture, store and transport a specified amount of pollution without incurring very high cost. In addition, finding countries willing to consume pollution at a given price is hard enough; negotiating an enforceable contract whose terms are satisfactory to all parties involved is even harder. Second, there are legitimate moral concerns that can and do prevent market-based solutions from receiving proper consideration in the policy arena.
Even so, the free market, whatever its moral limits, does seem to offer, in theory, some promising solutions to the world's current pollution problems.

Freddie Hubbard: The Intrepid Fox
The Intrepid Fox
Freddie Hubbard (trumpet)
Red Clay (CTI)
Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Joe Henderson (tenor sax), Herbie Hancock (electric piano), Ron Carter (bass), Lenny White (drums).
Composed by Freddie Hubbard.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, NJ, January 27-29, 1970
Rating: 91/100 (learn more)
Though this album is known for its funky, groove-laden title track, the other songs deserve just as much attention and praise. The late great Freddie Hubbard (R.I.P.) blazed his trail through the 1960s, leaving the jazz world with some of the best trumpeting ever recorded. On this song, he extends that sound over Lenny White's infectious, driving groove. I could definitely picture this accompanying a chase sequence in a movie; but don't get me wrong, the playing is topnotch. It's a shame that some of Hubbard's later material didn't capture the same kind of energy as his '60s and early '70s material. But nonetheless, this recording stands as an amazing testament to one of jazz's greatest trumpeters.

When NeNe Leakes used the '"B-word" to describe Cynthia Bailey's husband, Peter Thomas on Sunday night The Real Housewives of Atlanta fans knew there was going to be problems. While Cynthia doesn't like saying the word out loud, there is no doubt that hearing it being implied to her significant other is just as troubling. According to WetPaint on Monday, there is going to be a serious fallout from one word if the couples don't get together.
It is quite apparent that NeNe Leakes is looking to steal the spotlight when the cast of The Real Housewives of Atlanta get together. The star uses words to immediately invoke a response and when it came to Peter Thomas and the word "bitch" it was a shocking moment. While NeNe might want to figure out a way to control the fallout, the word seemed to out of place and irrelevant to the conversation.
The insult is the latest strange behavior of NeNe Leakes as she has offered up a drama filled storyline for almost all of the ladies this season. Really going after Kenya Moore about her friendship with Marlow, suggesting Porsha is ignorant and now insulting Cynthia Bailey's husband.
How will this play out in the week ahead? There will be a discussion as Cynthia and NeNe are good friends and everyone hopes that NeNe really apologizes instead of her typical explanation.

REVIEW: Dell Inspiron Mini 1025
www.digitalhomethoughts.com This is an in-depth review video of the Dell Inspiron Mini 10. As configured from Dell Canada, it cost me 9 CAD in March 2009. This Mini 10 is cherry red in colour, uses the Intel Atom Z530 (1.6 Ghz) CPU, has 1 GB of DDR2 RAM, uses Windows XP Home SP3, has a 10.1 inch 16 aspect ratio screen (1024 x 576 resolution), a 160 GB 5400 RPM 2.5 inch hard drive, a 1.3 megapixel Webcam, a 802.11g WiFi card, and is powered by a 3-cell 24 WHr battery. UPDATE: I did some more video tests using Quicktime and Windows Media Player, and while playback was fine (no obvious glitches like with VLC), the quality of the playback wasn't great – the GPU really sucks at scaling video, and artifacts popped up constantly.

Know Your Laptop Battery0
Know Your Laptop Battery
When given this question to any laptop or notebook computer user, they will get puzzled. This happens to me once when someone ask me about my laptop battery. As you can see, before you replace your dell latitude D610 laptop battery it is quite important to know a bit on the back ground first. There are several types of laptop batteries which I will share in this post.
Types of Laptop Batteries:
1. Alkaline – This is one of the common batteries around but only few laptops used it and the flaw about alkaline batteries is that is not rechargeable. You have to throw it once it goes flat.
2. Lead Acid – One of the most commons usage for this type is for laptop computers. It is long lasting, durable and rechargeable but unfortunately it is heavy and full of lead .
3. Lithium-Ion – The type of battery you would want to have for your laptop. The fast charging effect make it good for users on the go (need not wait for a long time for the battery to get charged completely). It is also environment friendly as well.
4. Nickel-Cadium – Ni-Cd batteries is one of the oldest and best performance types of rechargeable batteries but it has a major problem. After a long usage ( a few years), the acer aspire 4520 battery will suffer from the dreaded memory effect. This means that the lifespan usage of the battery will deteriorate as time goes by.
5. Nickel- Metal Hydride – Ni-MH batteries is considered to be the successor of the Ni-Cd batteries but unfortunately the dreaded memory effect is as bad as well. However as compared between Ni-Cd and NiMH batteries, the latter last longer as compared to its predecessor.
The odds that you will using the Lithium-Ion batteries are 99% ( that's if you are using the new breeds of laptops ). Just check the abbreviation that says LION or Li-Ion on your laptop battery label. There are still a few laptops that are using Ni-MH batteries these days and you might want to check with the manufacturer whether you can do an upgrade from Ni-MH to Li-Ion. Using unapproved batteries could led to dire consequences …. so do be very careful on this. If you have a higher budget you might want to check out SMART batteries. It has a power management circuitry and it will indicate to the user what is the current condition of the toshiba pa3284-1bas battery.

When Laptop battery exhaustion0
When Laptop battery exhaustion
Laptop batteries are not something that most people think about as they are using the laptop. However, it is a common experience to find that the screen suddenly goes dark and you realise that you have exhausted the battery. Fortunately, the answer is just to plug in the charger and carry on, and with any luck all your work will have been auto-saved.
There is more of a problem when laptop batteries just keep running down and the amount of time between charges becomes shorter and shorter. The inconvenience of this can be big as the need for frequent recharging of the battery cancels out the convenience of having a laptop which should be a portable computer. Laptop batteries in this condition can be a real annoying and make working on the laptop frustrating as you have to keep an eye on the battery life remaining and be ready to find a power source when it is needed – not always convenient or possible, especially when you are working on the move.
The answer is a replacement laptop batteries, and fortunately, you can find here at Lapbattery.com which are compatible with all the branded laptop manufacturers. Once you have your high capacity replacement laptop battery, you will be able to use your laptop anywhere you are again without having to worry about that little icon warning you that your time is running out.
Replacement laptop battery are really worthwhile to keep your familiar laptop running and available to you, rather than having to buy a new laptop just because the laptop batteries in the original one has reached the end of its useful life. A laptop that constantly needs recharging is just an irritant and something everyone can do without in these busy days, so a replacement laptop battery will nicely solve that problem.

Q How long does a Dell laptop battery last? When should I consider replacing mine?
A All rechargeable batteries wear out with time and usage. As time and cumulative use increase, the performance will degrade. For the typical user, noticeable reduction in run time generally will be Dell inspiron 640m battery Dell inspiron b120 battery Dell xps m1210 battery observed after 18 to 24 months. For a power user, reduction in run time generally may be experienced prior to 18 months. We recommend buying a new Dell Latitude D610 Battery when the run time does not meet your needs.
Q How should I choose between two batteries with different Watt hours (Whr) available on one system?
A Higher Watt hours (Whr) on the same system under the same operating conditions will generally deliver longer Dell Latitude D620 Battery run time. For example, if you compare the same system, running the same applications, the 53Whr battery would provide approximately 65% more run time than the 32Whr battery.
Q How long am I able to use my Dell lap on a fully charged Dell U4873 Dell D5318 battery?
A Many factors affect the amount of time that a portable computer battery can deliver power before it must be recharged. These factors include the configuration (processor, memory, etc.), types of applications being run and display brightness.
Dell uses industry standard benchmarks for battery run time claims. For more information on battery run times and benchmarks, the white paper, "Understanding Battery Life in Portable Computers" is available at:

Laptop battery CAUTION AND USAGE
http://www.laptops-battery.co.uk/ Found some laptop battery caution and usage in the internet, and I share the tips to our readers.
When laptop battery is not used normally, battery and battery device would be damaged.
New battery must be charged by specific charger.
Keep Dell laptop battery dry and be ventilative.
There is organic flammable in battery. If it is not used normally, it will be broke, leaking water, or too hot. These will cause battery damaged perpetually. There is safe protection device inside the battery.Dell inspiron 8600 battery Latitude x300 battery Dell latitude cpi battery
Do not use Inspiron E1405 Battery near the fire, stove or the place in a temperature higher than 80°
The battery safe protection parameter and index would be damaged if battery is in the water. Then the Latitude D830 Battery can not work regularly. Finally the battery might be too hot, get fire or explode.
Do not weld the battery with flat soldering because soldering melts battery insulator and damages safety circuit.
Do not extrude the laptop battery with heavy object or the battery might be out of shape.
If the battery is connected in reverse terminal, the battery would be too hot, get fire or be damaged.Dell 1×793 battery dell Inspiron 1501 battery Dell 75UYF Battery
Some functions of the Latitude D820 Battery can not be used if the pack is not working in a specific machine. And the battery life would be shortened.
If not using the specific adapter or change the specific adapter parameter, the battery would be too hot, get fire or explode.

Federal Policy Update
Congress Seeks New FTC Report on Alcopops and
Booze Advertising
Thanks to Representatives Lucille Roybal-Allard
(D-CA) and Frank Wolf (R-VA), in the conference report to the FY 2003 Omnibus
Appropriations Bill (H.J. Res 2 [http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=108_cong_reports&docid=f:hr010.108.pdf]
see page 776), Congress directs the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to examine
how liquor-branded alcopop advertising affects underage consumers. The FTC
must report to Congress within six months of the Act's enactment in January.
In addition, Congress, noting the alcoholic-beverage industry's failure to
implement the recommendations in the FTC's 1999 Report, "Self Regulation and the
Alcohol Industry," instructs the agency to "encourage the industry to adopt
stricter advertising placement standards" and "establish an independent
third-party review mechanism to limit the appeal and exposure of alcohol
advertising to underage consumers."
TTB Proposes New Regulations for Alcopops, Calls
for Public Comment
Due to growing concerns from states, the
Department of the Treasury and its Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade
Bureau (TTB) issued proposed rules on flavored malt beverages (alcopops)
on March 24 [http://a257.g.akamaitech.net/7/257/2422/14mar20010800/edocket.access.gpo.gov/2003/pdf/03-6855.pdf].
TTB wants to "ensure the proper classification under the Federal Alcohol
Administration Act so that [product] labeling and advertising conform to
the applicable requirements...and to ensure consumers are adequately
informed, and not misled, as to the identity of these products."
TTB studied the contents of 114 malternatives and found that "it is very
clear that most of these products' alcohol is derived from distilled
spirits contained in added alcohol flavorings." At the same time,
they also found that most malternatives contain "very little beer."
Under the proposed rules, flavored malt beverages at less than 0.5%
alcohol-by-volume derived from distilled spirits flavoring would be
taxed as malt beverages; if they contain more alcohol from distilled
spirits sources, they will be taxed at the higher distilled spirits
Acknowledging that consumers may believe
that malternatives contain as much alcohol-by-volume as the distilled
spirit brand name on the product label, TTB also seeks to require that
producers list the alcohol content on the brand label. Current
regulations do not require such labeling.
The Alcoholic Beverage Commission in Tennessee has already tried to
classify liquor-branded malternatives as distilled spirits. Diageo
and Miller Brewing Co. challenged the decision and the issue went to
hearing before the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Control Board on
February 20. A decision is pending.
CSPI plans to comment on this issue and we will provide guidance for
activists in the field at a later date. We will also post our
comments when we submit them.
You may submit written comments by June 23, 2003 to:
Chief, Regulations and Procedures Division
Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau
P.O. Box 50221
Washington, DC 20091-0221
Attn: Notice No. 4
TTB Sets Strict Standards for Alcohol Health
On March 3, 2003, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and
Trade Bureau (TTB), formerly the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF),
announced final regulations regarding health claims on alcoholic-beverage labels
and in advertising. The new rules will take effect on June 2, 2003. [www.ttb.gov/regulations/ttb_td01.pdf]
Drawing on testimony from two public hearings in early 2000, TTB's new
regulations "prohibit the appearance on labels or in advertisements of any
health-related statement, including a specific health claim that is untrue or
tends to create a misleading impression." The rules specify that health
claims must:
be truthful, properly detailed, and
adequately confirmed by substantial scientific evidence;
indicate the people for whom the health claim applies;
be balanced by information about the risks of moderate and heavier drinking,
including defining "moderate consumption" for specific groups of people; and
be qualified by a list of the categories of individuals for whom any levels of
alcohol consumption may cause health risks.
In addition, TTB will consult with the federal Food
and Drug Administration (FDA) if producers' health claims are found to be drug
claims. Directional statements, such as those that encourage consumers to ask
their doctors about the health benefits of alcoholic beverages, must include a
brief disclaimer advising that the statement should not encourage beginning or
increasing alcohol consumption for health reasons. Without this disclaimer, such
statements will be considered misleading.
TTB defines "health-related claims," as "statements and claims that imply that a
physical or psychological sensation results from consuming" any alcoholic
beverage "as well as statements and claims of nutritional value," such as
vitamin content. "Specific health claims," on the other hand, comprise
statements or claims that connect alcoholic-beverage consumption with diseases
or health-related conditions. This category includes implied specific health
claims (vignettes, symbols, or anything else that insinuates a connection
between alcoholic beverages and diseases or health-related conditions).
By identifying "health-related claims" and "specific health claims," and by
imposing detailed provisions for labels and advertisements that make these
claims, TTB has all but shut the door to misleading assertions about the
potential health benefits of consuming alcoholic beverages. We don't expect that
many companies will rush to make label or advertising health claims on alcoholic
beverages under the new conditions. If they do, the claims will be adequately
TTB Continues Reorganization
The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB)
held a meeting of stakeholders in Washington, DC in February to provide an
update on its transition from the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF)
under the Homeland Security Act of 2002. [TTB website: www.ttb.gov]
On January 24th, TTB began its work enforcing laws and provisions concerning the
production and taxation of alcohol and tobacco products. According to the
agency, industries will see few changes in agency responsibilities: collecting
excise taxes; classifying alcohol and tobacco products; managing permits for
distilleries, wineries, breweries and tobacco producers; and regulating
production, packaging, bottling, labeling, and storage of alcohol and tobacco
products. TTB will also continue to implement the Alcohol Beverage
Labeling Act and monitor misleading labeling and advertising of alcoholic
We do not anticipate that the TTB reorganization will create major changes in
the implementation of policies concerning the taxation, labeling, and
advertising of alcoholic beverages. CSPI will continue to monitor the
agency and provide information as necessary.
Oppose Beer Tax Rollback Bills H.R. 52 and H.R.
Brewers and beer wholesalers garnered considerable
Congressional support for legislation to slash federal excise taxes on their
products in the last Congress. A beer-industry-sponsored bill (H.R. 1305)
to cut the federal beer tax in half attracted 224 sponsors in the House, and
Senator Santorum (R-PA) introduced similar legislation in the Senate.
Just days after the opening of the 108th Congress, Representative Christopher
Cox (R-CA-47th) introduced H.R. 52 [http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d108:h.r.52:]
-- legislation that would reduce the federal excise tax on beer to its 1951
level. Another bill presents a bigger threat. Representative Phil
English (R-PA) re-introduced H.R. 1305 on March 18, with 122 original
co-sponsors. Brewers and beer wholesalers are now hard at work building
support for a beer-tax rollback, lobbying Congress and making generous campaign
contributions. Beer-industry lobbyists claim that the last tax increase on
beer destroyed 31,000 jobs, reduced income tax revenues, and burdened states
with unemployment costs. Recently, industry sources have tied beer-tax
cuts to the administration's economic stimulus package, suggesting that lower
beer taxes will help stimulate the economy.
The liquor lobby had its own tax-cut bill last session (H.R. 2023) and we expect
it to be re-introduced soon.
See which members of Congress have supported H.R. 52 [www.cspinet.org/booze/WRCongress.htm]
If your member is on this small, but growing list, please take a few moments to
write him/her and express your opposition to any reductions in federal excise
taxes on alcoholic beverages. If your member's name is not on this list,

Alcohol Policies Project Advocacy News
CSPI Asks CBS to Avoid Beer Ads on NCAA Cable
Because of the demand for war news coverage, the
National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) men's basketball tournament may
air on alternate cable channels, including channels devoted to children's
programming. News reports have suggested that CBS will shift some games to
ESPN, Nickelodeon, and TV Land. With this shift, many more young children
could be exposed to beer ads that have long been a part of NCAA tournament
On March 12, CSPI wrote Sean McManus, president of CBS Sports, urging him to
reject beer ads during games aired on youth-oriented cable networks. CSPI
sent copies of the letter to the NCAA's president, Myles Brand of the University
of Indiana, and to J. Howard Beales, III, director of the Bureau of Consumer
Protection at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
Recent studies document that underage youth see more commercials for beer than
for other consumer products like juice and gum, and that those advertisements
can influence their knowledge of beer brands and preference, not to mention
their attitudes towards drinking alcohol.
State Tax Update
Governor Mike Leavitt of Utah signed two bills, S.B.
66 [www.le.state.ut.us/~2003/bills/sbillenr/sb0066.htm] and S.B. 153 [www.le.state.ut.us/~2003/bills/sbillamd/sb0153.pdf],
on March 24, increasing the state's taxes on beer -- from $11.00 to $12.80 per
31-gallon barrel ($0.35 per gallon to $0.41 per gallon) -- and hiking the
state's markup on liquor by three and one-half percent (Utah is a control
state). The increase in the markup is the first since 1983 and is part of
a major revision of the state's alcohol laws. Both laws go into effect
July 1, 2003.
Efforts to raise alcohol excise taxes are still
very much on the front burner in many states. Several legislatures now
have proposals before them, and legislation has made progress. In some
states, notable initiatives have met with defeat. For a summary of the
status of state alcohol excise tax measures across the country, visit this
website: www.cspinet.org/booze/taxguide/TaxStateUpdate.htm.
State Alcohol Tax Cuts?
At the time of writing, 19 states have proposals to
increase taxes or implement fees on alcohol. However, New York and
Pennsylvania may have alcohol tax cuts in store.
New York law calls for the reduction of the tax on beer. The present rate
in New York, $0.125 per gallon, less than half the average of state rates, will
be reduced to $0.11 per gallon this year. The state budget deficit totals
more than $10 billion.
Pennsylvania, facing a budget deficit of $1 billion, has two pieces of
legislation that would cut the fees charged by the state Liquor Control Board.
Representative Robert Godshall (R) introduced legislation (H.B. 170) [www2.legis.state.pa.us/WU01/LI/BI/BT/2003/0/HB0170P0190.pdf]
that removes the state's markup on liquor and wine sales to hotels, restaurants,
clubs. Representative Larry Sather (R) introduced a bill (H.B. 154) [www2.legis.state.pa.us/WU01/LI/BI/BT/2003/0/HB0154P0178.pdf]
that cuts the state markup by one-third. Pennsylvania, as a control state,
sells wine and liquor and adds a markup to the wholesale price.
Global Trade Agreement Threatens State Alcohol
In closed negotiations on the General Agreement on
Trade in Services (GATS) taking place within the World Trade Organization, the
European Union has asked the United States to dissolve alcohol distribution
monopolies in 18 states to give European wine sellers access to tariff-free
trade. Sweden and Finland, two countries that regulate alcohol sales, have been
asked to do the same. U.S. agreement would essentially supercede federal, state,
and local regulations on the sale of alcohol; would deny alcohol control states
the right to create policy that is based on public safety or health goals; and
would eliminate state revenue, which according to the National Alcohol Control
States Association, totaled $41.7 million in sales in 1999.
Other GATS market access rules may eliminate limits on the number of service
providers, total number of service operations, or total quantity of a service,
likely affecting all states. The Bush administration has until the end of this
month to say which changes it may adopt.
Participants at the Alcohol Policy 13 conference discussed GATS issues and
adopted a resolution that will be sent to the U.S. Trade Representative. The
resolution asks that alcohol services be excluded from the agreement. [www2.edc.org/alcoholpolicy13/resolution.htm]
Industry Official Warns Producers about Alcohol Ads
Marcus Grant, president of the industry-backed International Center for
Alcohol Policies (ICAP), called for alcoholic-beverage marketers to ease
off of advertising alcoholic-beverage products with sexual or binge
drinking images, and instead focus on promoting moderate, responsible
drinking practices. His suggestion, delivered at an industry
conference sponsored by Impact Magazine, aims to avoid public
opposition to and government regulation of irresponsible advertising
practices that have become more common recently among brewers and some
distillers. Grant said, "we're not interested in pushing limits,
we're interested in promoting responsible drinking."
Jeff Becker, president of the Beer Institute, defended his industry's
advertising, saying, "[w]e know that we have critics, but our consumers
love our ads and that for us is very, very important."
Top Competitive BASS Fisherman Stands Up to Busch Beer
Jimmy Houston, dubbed America's most famous
fisherman, maintained his principles and lost an opportunity to compete in this
year's Bass Masters Classic fishing tournament. He can't participate
because he lost points for refusing to wear Busch Beer product insignia and
display the beer's logo on his boat. Citing his Christian background, he
expressed surprise and disappointment that more fisherman, particularly
Christian anglers, have not done the same.
Busch signed on as an official tournament sponsor last year. Under its
sponsorship agreement, players must wear Busch apparel and display the logo or
forfeit points to qualify for the BASS tournament. Although the rules
require players to highlight the Busch logos prominently, they also prohibit
alcohol consumption on days before and during BASS events.
Houston says that BASS competitors face similar pressure to those felt by NASCAR
racers when it comes to alcohol sponsorships. For instance, Hank Parker,
Jr. refused to endorse Seagram's Ice and has been barred from competing in
New Products
Despite declining sales in the alcopop category,
Diageo introduced Smirnoff Ice Triple Black in mid-January 2003, airing its
first ads during the Super Bowl. This drink targets young male consumers with
its rugged image and less sweet taste. Diageo hopes that product sales will
strengthen plans to create other extensions of Smirnoff Ice in the future and
fully secure its place as the number one distributor of alcopops.
With Bacardi USA, Anheuser-Busch launched its newest alcopop, Bacardi Silver O3,
in early March 2003. At 5 percent alcohol-by-volume, this drink targets the same
crowd as the multitude of other alcopops enjoyed by young, inexperienced,
introductory drinkers who enjoy sweet drinks. Although the market seems
saturated with products, and sales volume has slowed to the point of forcing
some products off the market, A-B anticipates that the new drink will succeed
because of its unique orange flavor. According to industry reports, newer
liquor-branded alcopops have been more successful lately than the original,
lemonade-type malternatives.
Jim Beam Brands Co. will release a new ready-to-drink beverage, Beam and Cola,
made with Jim Beam bourbon, in May 2003. The drink contains 5 percent
alcohol-by-volume, like beer and many malternatives, but actually contains hard
liquor. The advertising campaign for this product will begin in April, targeting
newspapers, outdoor and spot radio.
Web Tools for
Tracking Booze-Lobby Campaign Contributions
Two sites on the internet track political
contributions and provide useful information for activists who keep tabs on the
booze lobby and legislators.
The Center for Responsible Politics tracks political contributions to federal
candidates. This site offers a database of federal candidates and all of
their contributors, sorted by industry and individual giving. The web
address for this site: www.opensecrets.org.
A site maintained by the National Institute on Money in State Politics monitors
political contributions to state-level candidates. This site also allows
sophisticated searches by candidate and contributor category. The web
address is: www.followthemoney.org.
Check Out the Booze Lobby
The National Beer Wholesalers Association and the Beer Institute have set up a
website, www.beerservesamerica.org, that highlights the beer industry's
economic and social contributions to communities around America. It
features analyses of the jobs it creates, taxes it pays, and philanthropy it
distributes. The site provides beer lobbyists and their grassroots
activists with factual ammunition to oppose efforts to increase state beer taxes
and roll back the federal excise tax on beer. It's worth a look at the
exaggerated claims and self-serving arguments.
Anheuser-Busch has created several of its own sites to push the federal beer-tax
rollback (see article in this issue) in Congress. The website,
www.rollbackthebeertax.org, includes the claim that the tax on beer accounts
for 44 percent of its cost (considering every conceivable tax paid, in addition
to excise taxes). The site also highlights the apparent regressiveness of
taxes on beer, and calls the federal beer tax the "ultimate luxury tax."
We wonder whether the company considered the effects of its own price increases
-- several in the past few years -- on poor people and those of moderate
What the Industry Says About...Job Losses
In states proposing higher alcohol
taxes or fees, alcoholic-beverage lobbyists often argue
that even the smallest increase will result in job losses. Apparently
no increase is too small. In response to Oklahoma's effort to raise the beer license fee from $10 to $100
per year, convenience-store lobbyist Clayton Thomas
warned, "It will result in the loss of jobs." We didn't know
that retail wages in Oklahoma were that low!

Clean fresh apartment in a good area. Really happy with it!
Very clean and convenient apartment and convenient to get to. Local restaurants in st georg area of the city were 10 mins away. We found the Walmart supermarket stocked everything you need. The booking agency was very helpful. The immediate vicinity is mainly offices and residential apartments so there isn't really a view from the balcony and we did have some noise from a party/club event on the Saturday night from a building further down the street. However overall we had a pleasant stay and very good value.
Great location, easy to reach and you're quickly in the city centre. Spacious apartment, and the host was very flexible when we asked if we could leave the room an hour later. Certainly will use their services more often!

We had a good stay, the apartments was clean and quite near the metro station. I recommend this to other Wimdu-users.
Dont miss out on the kebab place at the metro station - maybe the best meal we had in Hamburg!
We were 2 families having booked 2 adjacent apartments in Hamburg (Nordkanalstr. 58 20097 Hamburg "App. City 1+2"). Everything worked out just fine. The apartments were very clean and ready for our stay, and we had no complaints at all. It's definitely recommendable. Full value for money = 5 stars.
So nice, clean and easy to gået the key. Very close to the s-bahn og the center of Hamburg.
Apartment was nice, the caretakers of the apartment very friendly. The apartment itself was well maintained, but the location (Hansaplatz) is a bit on the grimy side, though, seemingly, not dangerous.
Very nice and comfortable room in a nice flat in a central quarter in Hamburg, perfect to go out and have fun at night, but the room isn't that noisy, so it is possible to sleep without problems!
The owner is very kind and helpful. We are absolutely satisfied about everything.
It has been a pleasent sojourn, nothing to complain about!
We ( two couples) had a wonderful weekend in the same apartmentbuilding 11 month ago, but this time it was a disaster. One thing is, that it is not a private home, that was ok last time, when everything was functioning. This time we payed 30 euros more for ½ the space, and we had to call for bedlinen. The worst thing was, that pipelines for heating was layed in the street outside the building, and they worked all nigt too, so we were not able to get any sleep at all because of the noise. I can not recommend this apartmentcompany
Reply of the Host:
Dear Anne,
thanks for your message and we are absolutely sorry that one set of bedlinen was missing at arrival, which was our mistake and replaced immediately. Concerning the construction works we had not been informed and did not know that the city of Hamburg was doing such kind of work, but I hope you will understand that we do not know in the moment you are booking with Wimdu if there will be any public work going on your travel date. We could have tried to switch you to another place knowing about your inconveniences. Our emergency mobile phone is connected 24 h a day. Regards and maybe until next time in Hamburg.

Guided Resolutions when Creating a Service Request (SR)
By Phil Catalano-Oracle on Sep 09, 2014
Anyone logging Service Requests recently might have noticed changes to some of the available options.
Oracle is enhancing My Oracle Support (MOS) to provide a new Guided Resolution feature to help streamline the process for solving common software and hardware issues.
The feature was introduced in MOS 14.3, released July 2014. It is designed to guide you to a technical resolution for known issues by using fact-driven logic based on your specific situation and/or configuration.
The following screenshot shows what you will see if a guided resolution flow is available, in this case for WebCenter Portal (WCP) Patching questions/issues. Notice the yellow box that says Guided resolution has been activated. This is what tells you there is a guided resolution for that Problem Type.
The goal is for users to get access to Oracle best practices for diagnosing issues across key product areas while retaining the flexibility of filing an SR in the event that a solution is not found.
The following screen shot shows the start of a guided resolution with the list of options available.
At the time of this writing there was only one WCP guided resolution, Patching. In the coming weeks and months we will continuously add more.
Along with the new guided resolutions, there will be a restructuring of the WCP Problem Types. For consistency from one product to another, the first level of Problem Types will be the same across all products and will look like the following screenshot. The second level will be unique to each product. This change will be coming soon for WCP.

With summer winding down, it's a great time to indulge in Chef Robert Young's upscale take on authentic Belgian street food, at Monk Beer Abbey in Royal Oak.
So what's the scoop?
With a renewed interest in street food, Chef Robert and his crew of talented culinarians have come up with an inspired menu of dishes to help bridge the gap between summer and fall.
First up, try the Frikandel. My favorite- a fried sausage of pork and veal, sliced the long way and topped with some sweet caramelized onions and Duvel ale cheddar sauce, all atop a warm pretzel roll. Homemade pickled veggies are on the side, but can be added to the sandwich for a little extra zing. This was ridiculously good, offering sweet, savory, tender and crunch, all in one bite. At $7 with a mound of seasoned fries, this is a steal.
Not in the mood? How about the Croque Monsieur—a generous serving of house-cured gammon (ham) and Emmental cheese on French Toasted sourdough bread, topped with a fried egg. Sliced to order, the ham is cured in juniper, pink and black peppercorns, and sea salt. This dish seems perfect for a brunch menu, and also goes well with a yeasty Belgian beer.
Monk is offering a croquette trio, which would serve well as a shared appetizer, or entrée. The Cheese, Chicken and Shrimp potato croquettes have a satisfying crispy outside, with an indulgently creamy middle, and are served with curried ketchup.
According to sales volume, the Doner Kebab is the most popular new menu item. Take some spit grilled, seasoned lamb and beef (gyro style), and top it with pickled vegetables, housemade hot sauces, and garlic-peppercorn aioli, all served up in between a folded grilled pita. The hot sauce packs a tasty punch, and adds an extra layer of flavor.
What about dessert?
To finish things off, Chef Robert has come up with some melt-in-your-mouth apple doughnut holes. Called Smoutebollen in Belgium, they're deep fried and topped with cinnamon and sugar, and served up with some homemade raspberry sauce on the side. Delish.
Monk is conveniently located in downtown Royal Oak at 419 South Main, just behind Bastone. The new Belgian Street Food menu is available daily, 4-10 p.m. The following beer offerings are also available this month, courtesy of Brewmaster Rockne Van Meter:
Dark Mild – An English style session ale with delicate chocolate and caramel flavors and aroma. 4.2 percent abv.
Belgian Session – featuring El Dorado hops tropical fruit notes. 4.5 percent abv.
Udder Magnifico Cream Stout – A Great American Beer Festival winner. Rich chocolate, caramel and roast flavors as well as the addition of lactose for a smooth creamy taste. 5.5 percent abv.
You can find more information on Monk Beer Abbey at monkbeerbar.com , and on Facebook. Learn more about the Bastone complex at bastone.net.
At 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 27, rain or shine, Royal Oak's Monk Beer Abbey will offer an all inclusive five courses of small plates and beer samples. Tickets are $25. Reserve yours with a call to 248-544-6250.

United Nations, New York, October 2009 - Mr. Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, is announcing in a video message his support for the 2010 FIFA World Cup 1GOAL: Education for All campaign.
This is the text of his message:
"2010 will mark ten years since the world pledged to provide primary education to every child.
Under the Education for All Campaign, we have made great progress toward achieving the Millennium Development Goal for education. More than 40 million additional children are now in school.
But we cannot rest until every child receives a primary education. More than 75 million children in the worlds poorest countries are not enrolled in school. The majority are girls. Many more are forced to drop out without finishing their studies.
Together, we can change this.
Just over a year ago, I came together with global leaders to launch the Class of 2015. We pledged that every child would receive an education by then.
To fulfil our promise, we need more aid for education, better training for teachers, and programmes such as school meals to help children stay in school. We need to deliver on the commitments that have already been made.
Today, I am pleased to sign on with FIFA and football players everywhere in the 1Goal Campaign. Next year, the World Cup will come to Africa. Lets ensure it leaves a legacy of education.
I call on world leaders and people everywhere to join me in signing on to the 1Goal Campaign. With your support, the most important goals scored at the 2010 World Cup will be the Millennium Development Goals!"

Police Chief Russ Beatty said Poland Village residents need to be on guard after a rash of burglaries that took place in the village's southwest section. He said investigations are ongoing and progress is being made.
"We've had three burglaries in the past year," Beatty said. "In the last month we've had one burglary and one attempt."
The first break-in came following an attempted burglary on March 17. A second floor window alarm went off at a home in the southwest section of the village and village police responded. They discovered a ladder placed against the side of the house as well as a pair of prescription glasses. Beatty said he is presently awaiting the results of a DNA test on those glasses.
Beatty said burglaries in the village are not a common thing and to have three within a one-year period is rare. While he hopes to find the person responsible, he said property owners can take steps to prevent another one from occurring.
"If you're going away for an extended period of time, call the police department and inform us," he said.
Those whose do call will have their address placed on a secured list. Patrolmen will then do periodic checks on the home to ensure it is secure.
There are other indicators to thieves that Beatty said homeowners should be aware of. Things like leaving mail piling up and having no lights on are a tell-tale sign that no one is home. He also recommended making sure the home alarm system is turned on before leaving. In the case of the March 17 attempt, the alarm had police en route before any break-in could occur.
He also asks that residents report any suspicious activity. He said in many burglaries, the suspect may canvass the neighborhood before attempting a break-in. Any unusual person roaming a neighborhood, especially after dark, should be reported so officers can check them out.
"Pay attention to who is walking around and call police on suspicious people, specifically at night," he said.

The Chicago Sun-Times reported this morning that Mayor Rahm Emanuel has proposed "a far-reaching ordinance" that would require any gun shops in the city to videotape every sale, and now one might wonder whether this was the backdoor launch of a new gun control scheme that will somehow be twisted to promise a reduction in violent crime.
This comes after a weekend filled with news about the multiple slayings in Isla Vista, where suspected killer Elliot Rodger stabbed three men fatally in his apartment, then went on a rampage around the community, near the University of California, Santa Barbara. He shot two women outside of a sorority and another young man at a mini-mart before engaging in two shootouts with police and ultimately taking his own life.
Rodger, the 22-year-old alleged killer, bought the three handguns he used from different retail shops. He passed California's "universal background check" requirement and also the waiting period before taking each delivery. There was no background check on the knife or knives he apparently used in the first three homicides.
Obviously, so-called "universal background checks" did not live up to their promise. So what's next on the list for gun control measures designed to inconvenience, and perhaps discourage, gun buyers while not preventing any crimes? Perhaps Emanuel just provided the answer.
Facing a July 14 deadline to adopt an ordinance allowing gun stores inside the Chicago city limits, Emanuel reportedly wants all gun sales videotaped "to deter customers from buying firearms for crooks," according to WBBM, the local CBS affiliate. The proposed ordinance also reportedly contains a provision that gun shops would have to conduct quarterly audits, and let police inspect their records. Janey Rountree, Emanuel's deputy chief of staff for public safety, acknowledge that it will be "the toughest regulation on gun stores in the country."
But will it accomplish anything? Chicago saw six people killed and nearly two dozen other people wounded in holiday weekend shootings, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. The ordinance is reportedly "designed to prevent gun trafficking and illegal sales in these stores."
Jump back to California. Would it have made any difference to suspected killer Elliot Rodger whether he was videotaped legally buying his three handguns? He videotaped himself outlining his plans not long before carrying out his planned "Day of Retribution."
Meanwhile, Rodger's rampage has led to more calls for gun control. According to the Daily Mail, a British newspaper that has covered Friday night's murders extensively, Richard Martinez, the defense attorney whose son was the last victim, wants to meet with the suspect's father, Peter Rodger, an assistant director of the "Hunger Games."
"I lost my son," he stated. "He lost his son. We have that in common. We want, if possible, that the deaths of our son and his son should mean something."
And that something apparently will be a demand for more gun restrictions. Elliot Rodger's aunt, Jenni Rodger, living in southwest France, reportedly appealed to President Barack Obama on Sunday to "stop the slaughter."
"I want the president and the authorities to finally stop these killings," she was quoted by the Daily Mail as stating. "The only possible good thing that can come out of all this is America finally taking action."
Such remarks are grist for the gun prohibition lobby, which is already trying to exploit, as predicted by this column over the weekend, by only focusing on the three killings Rodger allegedly committed with his handguns. They continue to conveniently ignore the fact that this murder spree happened in a state with already-tough gun laws including "universal background checks" and waiting periods, and none of those measures prevented the carnage.

I fell in love with this dress at a cute boutique JLM Couture Salon in West Hollywood. The satin material is gorgeous and looks rich and elegant. I wore it on my wedding day and felt incredibly beautiful. It is a simple dress which accentuates a small waistline and is semi-poofy but not too overwhelming. I need to sell the dress in order to pay off my exorbitant interview expenses as I am starting residency in July. Lovely dress. Small cake stain on the bottom left side of dress. Very faint, hardly visible.
- Alterations: My mom is very conservative and asked to raise back neckline 2" from side seam to side seam. Done very tastefully. Can't even notice a real difference from when I tried the original gown at the boutique. I also had the neckline made into a sweetheart and had the dress hemmed as i am 5'4''. The dress was also taken in at the sides.
- Preservation Method: Professionally dry-cleaned

Since then I have a thing for black BBWs so I was pleased to learn of a new site that features nothing but this. Called Chubby Sistas they have a tonne of big African American women. Check out two of their models that I found hot. The first is the very curvy Melody Nyte. This girl has an amazing body and an ass I would pound day and night if she were mine. She's not mine so I'll have to make do with jerking off to her videos!
The other bitch is even fatter. She's a mature ghetto BBW with a gigantic fat ass. I loved her video where she rides the dick of a much younger and smaller man.
Wanna see the full movies? Grab a Chubby Sistas membership and get access to all their hot black BBW videos.

Junior Craishia Washington
Feb. 15, 2014
AMES, Iowa (SMU) – Freshman Agnes Sjöström paced the Mustang distance runners as she placed ninth in the 3000-meter run with a time of 9:33.86 as the SMU indoor track and field team competed on the second and final day of the Iowa State Classic in Ames, Iowa. Sjöström now holds the top times in the American Athletic Conference in both the 3000-meter and 5000-meter events following this weekend's meet.
"Agnes recorded these great times now and it's great to know we have her in our program for three more years," Director of Track & Field Dave Wollman said. "Her breakthrough performances this weekend will lead to the rest of our very talented distance runners to follow."
In addition to Sjöström, sophomores Melanie Stemper and Shanoah Souza finished third (9:52.41) and sixth (9:57.07) in the unseeded 3000-meter run. Sophomore Karoline Skatteboe placed 21st (10:01.22) and 22nd (4:57.04) in the same race and one mile run, respectively.
In the shot put, junior Helena Perez placed third in the shot put with a mark of 15.14 meters while junior Rayann Chin and freshman Tochi Nlemchi followed Perez as they placed fourth (14.92m) and ninth (14.20m), respectively.
In the sprinting events for the Mustangs, sophomore Rachel Scruggs placed 10th in the 400-meter dash as she crossed the finish line in time of 56.56. SMU placed 10th in the 4x400-meter relay as the group of juniors Craishia Washington and Stephanie Kalu, sophomore Hannah Moss and Scruggs crossed the finish line in a time of 3:47.47.
After sitting idle next weekend, SMU returns to action on Feb. 28 - Mar. 1 as the team travels to New York City, N.Y. for the inaugural American Athletic Conference Indoor Championships.
"Everything is shaping up for us to give our best effort in two weeks at the conference meet," Wollman continued. "That's all we can ask."

Perhaps you have seen him; the lone Native astride his horse, head and shoulders bent in overwhelming sadness. The piece is entitled "One More Day". Although there were to be more, the days were numbered. The final days are here. The Native has disappeared from this, his land. He does not decorate the school walls at Thanksgiving. He does not weep for the filth in his lakes and streams. He no longer is portrayed as the "Keeper of the Earth". It is as they promised; he seems to have vanished.
It is for this reason that I realized that a website of this nature would serve a necessary purpose. Thus I invite you to participate, share and enjoy.
You will have various categories such as current news, history, a photo gallery, recipes, and anything that you might suggest. Your interest and commentary will be appreciated.
Much of what you will learn will come as a surprise to you. The Native or what I prefer referring to as the Indigenous person of the Americas and Canada has been disguised, revised and reinvented almost to the point of extinction.
For the past twenty-two years, I have produced innumerable programs by means of QPTV and MNN to introduce Natives from all over the US and Canada.
They have performed their traditional dances and demonstrated their superb skills in arts and crafts. Much of the information presented was of great benefit to the society at large.
These I intend to repeat.
To the memory of my wonderful Native parents and their parents of yore, I give you…
