Turns out there's more on those supposedly neutral public servants in charge of the Pentagon's blogger outreach program that I've been discussing over the last few months. The Washington Post reported yesterday that the newest addition to the Pentagon's outreach team is Michael Allan Leach.
And who is Leach? The Post cites a St. Petersburg Times story which "reported that Leach blamed President Clinton and media liberals for a decline in morals, and wrote in a 1998 Internet posting: 'I can no longer sit idly by while liberals in Washington with seven brain cells drag this country into the muck and mire of stupidity'." The same story described him as playing as big a role as anyone in George W. Bush's victory in Florida in 2000.
Leach's role was spelled out in a New York Times story that year. Leach, it said, "took his laptop computer to the Seminole County elections offices this fall and added missing identification numbers to roughly 2,000 absentee-ballot applications from Republican voters" so they could be counted for Bush. The Times cited a Florida statute, designed to crack down on absentee-ballot fraud, which said that "only voters, their relatives or their guardians may "request" absentee ballots, and goes on to list all the information, including the voter registration number, that 'the person making the request must disclose'."
It takes less than seven brain cells to figure out what participation by Leach means in regard to the objectives of the Pentagon's blogger outreach effort.

How pro-oil Louisiana politicians have shaped American environmental policy
In Havana, the past year has been marked by a parade of bold-faced names from the north — John Kerry reopening the United States Embassy; Andrew Cuomo bringing a delegation of American business leaders; celebrities ranging from Joe Torre, traveling on behalf of Major League Baseball to oversee an exhibition game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, to Jimmy Buffett, said to be considering opening one of his Margaritaville restaurants there. All this culminated with a three-day trip in March by Barack Obama, the first American president to visit Cuba since Calvin Coolidge in 1928. But to those who know the city well, perhaps nothing said as much about the transformation of political relations between the United States and Cuba that began in December 2014 as a concert in the Tribuna Antiimperialista.

From Our Editors
"Sano" means health, and that is the focus of the staff members at the Sano Spa at Casa Munras Hotel - Monterey as they perform beauty and wellness treatments, such as massages, facials, and waxing services, using natural ingredients and essential oils. The spa's four spacious rooms are each equipped to host an array of treatments, including facials, massages, and body wraps and scrubs. Rich, exotic ingredients pervade each treatment, such as pure beeswax and aromatherapy oils incorporated into custom massages, or the marine-based serums used in the youth-glow facial, which evokes radiance unseen since before faces learned that the Fountain of Youth isn't real. The nourishing elements of brown sugar, seaweed oils, and coconut body butters bolster eight types of body treatments including wraps, scrubs, and baths. Sano's skilled technicians also provide makeup applications for special occasions and airbrush bodies with a natural-looking, sunless tan that makes the sun second-guess its relevance.
Between treatments at the upscale retreat, robe- and slipper-clad clients lounge beneath alcoves draped with ivory linens as they sip on cups of hot tea or a re-mineralizing cocktail. Lush plants and vibrant flowers weave around Sano Spa's outdoor garden, where patrons soak in the sun as they ease into a steamy Jacuzzi or curl up next to the glowing fire pit.

Because it is written very simply and aimed at children from 1st through 4th grade, I had been supplementing this book with Greenleaf's Guide to Famous Men of the Middle Ages. However, if we study each of the "Famous Men" (which is confined to Europe and surrounding areas) in addition to all the topics in Story of the World, Volume 2 (which includes history from Asia, Africa, the Americas and Australia)-- well, we'd NEVER finish! For that reason, we decided to lay aside the Greenleaf Guides until their middle school years.
Susan Wise Bauer writes in a very engaging manner for young students. She writes as though she were speaking directly to them. My children just love the stories in this book! My son would read it all up in a day or two if I would allow him to.
This is the main book we use as our history spine. We supplement it with many library books that correspond to the chapter of SOTW that we are studying. I would not recommend using this book as your ONLY source of history. It is not intended to be used as such, and it simply cannot meet all your history needs.
To be honest, I am somewhat disappointed in the many spelling errors I have found in this book. Perhaps it was rushed to press because so many homeschoolers were eagerly awaiting the sequel to Volume 1. My son delights in finding the errors, and together we correct them in the text.
All in all, if you are looking for an easy way to introduce world history to your child, I recommend using this book as your entry point. When you reach a chapter that particularly interests your child, find LOTS of library books about that topic.
The book does a good job of providing a balanced look at the major events during the Middle Ages. The book will focus on one area of the world, going over the major events, who was in charge, and who accomplished some of the important things, like discovering America. Then the book will move on to another part of the world for a couple chapters.
Susan Wise Bauer did an excellent job of weaving in various parts of history. For example in talking about a culture the book might go into a major myth or story of the group. The variety in pacing flows nicely from history, to what it might have been like to live at the time in a given culture, to some of these myths, and then back again. This helps keep the children interested.
The book is just right for young children. When they are young they don't need another 1000 pages of details most of us forget anyways. This book is written in such away that young children really want to listen, they want to know what happened, and then what will happen next. They can develop a love for history such that they'll go back and read in more detail about the parts of history they found interesting.
If you are looking for a good book for young children covering the major events of world history during the Middle Ages, this is the best I've found.

Stuck in 2 tasks
In map,, I still have 2 tasks (in the library and in the gryffindor common room). What can I do now??? help me.
Answer from: Candy114
I dunno if u hav done this yet but in common room there is a painting all on its own with a man on a broom then on the other side of the common room there is a painting with a man and the snitch talk to him, you might need to climb on something to talk to him, dont remember.. Then after that your done. In the library the only tasks I remember doing were trying to get books down. you go to the library if you can't get in there you talk to one of the girls next to it and she asks for your help then she gets you in library, then there's a boy who you talk to and you gotta get a book down from shelf. To do that you need to get a table and book case and bring it near the book, climb on table then the bookcase and cast a spell on book keep doing that to wherever the book goes, the when the books finally on the floor get him out by putting the slippers near him, don't worry the slippers will be next to you, then zap him wiv a spell. By the way if u hav done the common room task that I said then your stuck on the one I'm stuck on too. Sorry this was long, I really hope I helped, good luck X

Homer Simpson Wall Clock
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Home Entertainment, Household, Misc. Tech
Watch Homer watch the Duff with the Simpson's Wall Clock. Officially licensed, the clock is about 9.5-inches in diameter and needs 1 AA battery to run (not included.) While we find the timepiece moderately amusing, we would have preferred that instead of simply rolling his eyes, he drooled a bit and, when the minute hand reached 12, moaned "Beer.." With a 1 year warranty, the Homer Clock is available at your local Quicky Mart or online for £12.95 (~$25.25.)

DC man orders TV, gets assault rifle instead
Recipient of mistaken order had never held a gun before he felt the trigger of the Sig Sauer rifle
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A Washington musician who ordered a flat-screen TV from Amazon.com was shocked to receive a semiautomatic assault rifle instead.
Thirty-eight-year-old Seth Horvitz says he purchased the 39-inch television from a third-party seller. A box arrived from UPS on Tuesday evening, and it seemed too small to contain the TV. He says he initially thought it contained accessories.
But when he opened it, he found a Sig Sauer military-style rifle. He says he had never held a gun before he felt the trigger of the rifle.
An invoice showed that the gun was intended for delivery to a firearms dealer in Duncansville, Pa. Horvitz called police, who took the gun and are investigating how the mistaken shipment occurred. Amazon and UPS had no immediate comment.

Donn Handicap (gr. I) winner Mongoose and Skip Away Handicap (gr. III) winner Sir Bear were both active during Gulfstream's two dark days following Florida Derby weekend.Both prepped in anticipation of probable engagements in the Gulfstream Park Handicap (gr. I) to be run at 1 1/4-miles on March 30.Gary and Mary West's Mongoose, who came from off the pace to capture the Donn Handicap here by a neck on Feb. 9, breezed six furlongs in 1:16 at Payson Park on March 18. Working the same morning at Payson was the Wests' Ubiquity, who breezed five furlongs in 1:02 1/5. Ubiquity, who set the pace for Mongoose in the Donn, collapsed from heat stroke following the running of that race but quickly recovered.Both Mongoose and Ubiquity are trained by Jim Bond, as is William L. Clifton's Pleasant Breeze, who breezed six furlongs in 1:18 at that same Palm Beach County training center on that day. Pleasant Breeze, a possibility for the Gulfstream Park Handicap, was second to Sir Bear in the 2001 renewal.Sir Bear breezed five furlongs at Calder Race Course in 1:05 1/5 on March 19 in preparation for a title defense of the Gulfstream Park Handicap. After trailing the field early in this year's Skip Away, Sir Bear rallied for a half-length victory. The 9-year-old passed on the Donn in favor of pointing to the Gulfstream Park Handicap.

Farmar joins the whine club
First it was Andrew Bynum. Now it's Jordan Farmar's turn to vent.
And that's just what he did this week, walking into Phil Jackson's office to talk (complain) about his role.
Earlier in the season, Farmar had the green light to run the fastbreak, to run more pick and rolls on offense and less of the triangle offense.
Now, Farmar said, Jackson wants him to run the triangle offense and not look for the fastbreak when it's not there.
"I asked them what they wanted me to do so I can go out there and do it and not be confused about my job," Farmar told the LA Times. "They're not looking for me to do anything personal -- just run our offense. It affects my performance and what I do.
"I'm a guard coming off the bench playing limited minutes so I got to make those minutes count and do what the coaching staff and the organization wants."
Of course, it's all about Jordan. Isn't this a team game? Maybe instead of floating Sasha Vujacic's name around the trading circles, the Lakers should put Farmar on the block.
What the team doesn't need right now is whiners and complainers. They need role players and ones who understand what the goal is -- the NBA (team) championship.
If these guys want individual recognition, perhaps they should play tennis.

But even though they escape the ghetto, the sisters cannot escape its problems, and their dream of celebrity and success becomes a nightmare of jealousy and drugs in this powerful tale.]]>

There are fine performances in this movie. Irene Cara (who plays "Sparkle"), Lonette McKee, and Dorian Harewood are particular standouts. Look for future "Miami Vice" star, Philip Michael Thomas, as Sparkle's enterprising boyfriend. It has been compared to Broadway's "Dreamgirls" and the Supremes' story, but it has its own strengths, plus a slammin' soundtrack, written and produced by the late, great Curtis Mayfield, and sung by the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. "Something He Can Feel" is STILL the jam. I gave it four stars because the ending was predictable, but all around this is a wonderful film. Highly recommended. Now where's the DVD?
Eventhough Aretha is the Queen of Soul she did'nt sing those songs in the movie, and therefore did not make them her own!!!
Despite a few flaws in the dvd release of Sparkle, I did really enjoy seeing this 70's classic!!! I always thought Phillip Michael Thomas and Irene Cara were pure magic together. She possessed such a sweet innocence as Sparkle and Phillip Michael Thomas was just so damn fine!!!! And still is!!!! He's aged very well!!! It would have been nice to see a current interview with the original cast, but unfortunately alot of older black films from the 70's just don't get the royal treatment like alot of current films that get released on dvd. At this point I'll just be grateful that Sparkle is finally available on dvd!!!
The release of this movie in 1976 was a big deal in Detroit, because it was the movie debut of Detroit native Lonette McKee. She even attended the Detroit premiere! Her reviews were great, and she had appearances on many talk shows afterwards--including Dinah Shore's. On one show, she expressed disappointment that an album featuring the songs as sung by her, Irene Cara, and others in the movie wasn't released, but thanked Aretha Franklin for recording an album featuring the songs from the film. She was later cast as Ali's wife in the movie 'The Greatest', but later quit after creative differences with the director. She was then cast as one of the female co-stars in the hilarious 1977 movie 'Which Way Is Up?' with Richard Pryor (who had taken McKee under his wing and who she was rumored to have been dating). Her next big movie role was in 'The Cotton Club' in 1984, where she played a Cotton Club girl who later passes for white to get gigs in higher-paying clubs. Other roles include Haley's tv movie 'Queen' (where she played a slave who passes for white) and Oprah Winfrey's tv movie 'The Women of Brewster Place' (where she played a lesbian school teacher fearful of losing her job if her sexuality became known).
Back to 'Sparkle'...One of my all-time favorite movie characters is the tall, sexy, strutting, long-haired, high-yellow, gum-chewing, I'm-hot-and-I-know-it Sister! McKee owns the movie, and the three girls in red dresses singing "Hooked On Your Love" is a screen classic!Read more ›

text: Home > Entertainment What people say about Kris' pixie cut ABS-CBN News Posted at Apr 21 2014 11:56 PM | Updated as of Apr 22 2014 08:21 AM Share Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest Before and after: Kris Aquino in a promotional image for 'Kris TV' and her during the Monday episode of 'Aquino & Abunda Tonight. ABS-CBN/Screengrab MANILA - Kris Aquino was a hot topic on social media Monday night as she revealed her new hairstyle during the live telecast of her primetime talk show. Aquino, who is dubbed "Queen of All Media," showed up on the "Aquino & Abunda Tonight" set with a pixie haircut, which she said is the shortest her hair has ever been. The 43-year-old TV host, who recently confirmed dating Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista, hinted that the new look was because of a "heartache." Recent reports saying Bautista is supposedly still with his long-time partner, Tates Gana, were not lost on viewers of "Aquino & Abunda Tonight" who took to Twitter to air their reactions. While some commented on the apparent new development in Aquino's love life, others poured praises for the actress' "fresh" hairstyle. Others were not as impressed, however, saying longer hair suits Aquino better. Some compared Aquino to other female personalities who sport a similar hairstyle -- from local news personalities to big-name Hollywood stars.

Great Article!!!!
Great article.
The David Goodis novel Night Squad, which takes place in the Neck, provides a great view of life there in late 1950s. It was really interesting to read about a landscape that completely doesn't exist anymore.
Thanks, John, you just have to love the pig wars! In May of 1917, the city also shut down eleven piggeries in the other big Philadelphia pig farming section – Wheatsheaf Lane in upper Port Richmond. The Philadelphia Livestock Association on Eleventh and Shunk Streets took up the cause of the pig farmers, circulating petitions in South Philadelphia and publishing ads in the Inquirer with headlines that read "Pigs in the Crisis." The Association claimed that allegations of odors and diseases caused by the piggeries were groundless. They also pointed out that, as the U.S. was now involved in the War in Europe, the pigs were not only an important source of meat but could be fed cheaply on garbage and waste, conserving scarce grain for human consumption. As they said, "we need all the pork we can get."
Great research.
I'm pretty sure there are no records or archives. Because of its location in S. Philly and the brief mention of it in 1917, I'd bet that the Livestock Association was just a short-lived ad hoc organization formed by the pig farmers themselves. Although there was a long campaign to drive piggeries out of the city, dating from the 1880s, the final push came in the 1910s with the desire to convince Congress and the Navy Department to sink money into expanding the League Island shipyard. Philadelphia had been competing with Norwalk, CT and Norfolk VA for federal funding since after the Civil War. The City Councils were afraid that the proximity of acres of "filthy, disease breeding piggeries" would hinder the shipyard's chances. It all comes down to money. By the way, really great article and photos, John!
What a fascinating story! Hidden City, indeed. No mention of the fact that pigs poop stinks, and probably stunk up Center City when the wind was wrong.
What a strange piece of history. It really does look like sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. I'm really impressed with the quality of pictures from the early 1900's.
I'd heard of the Neck but never really understood where it was. Obviously not a native south philian. Very interesting article.
Looking at the several photos in a row, the far right photo includes a neat row of utility poles. Might you want to check PECO archives and archives of the early telephone company in that area?
Not just to confirm the presence of such utility service, but the names of customers? addresses of those customers?
And, churches come and churches go. I gather that the little church in the other photo is no more. Yet when a church congregation or parish is folded up, it is merged into another. Such a merger might be documented in this case, and therefore there might be names of parishioners or congregants. Records of christenings (baptisms), marriages, deaths and burials (where?)….
My family (various people who would later meet, marry and be our ancestors) arrived in Philly in the 1840s, and when horsecar lines were offered, moved a bit south. Not as far as the Neck, and when the Market St elevated opened, they went to various parts of Overbrook, met each other and married, and didn't go into the suburbs until the 1950's etc. They returned to South Philly for the Mummers Parade — into the 1980s.
But one of those S Philly ancestors did some real estate investing in the 1890s, buying three places further down in S Philly, below St Agnes Hospital. Maybe in the Neck, just as it was being "improved".
Great article, you are a really into Local History!

The proliferation of digital channels opens up new opportunities for businesses that want to deepen relationships with existing clients and attract new customers. Social media platforms and the widespread use of mobile devices provide an affordable way to push out a steady stream of content to always-connected consumers and generate new business. However, many companies that are making the change from print-centric communication to digital content are finding that the transition isn't simple. The processes that are in place for creating, approving, publishing, distributing and tracking print-centric content don't scale when faced with omni-channel digital content.

Scandinavian media group Schibsted ASA plans to acquire music streaming provider Aspiro AS for 340 million Swedish kroner ($49 million). Schibsted already owns 18.3% of the company, and Aspiro's board is reportedly recommending that its shareholders accept Schibsted's bid for all shares; so far, a third of shareholders have expressed their support.
"Aspiro operates the WiMP unlimited music service to telcos Telenor [Group] and Canal [Digital] and PT in Denmark and Norway, via the Norwegian entertainment retailer Platekompaniet, plus on a white label basis through PT in Portugal and via another partner coming up in the Benelux," reports paidContent.org. As of September, WiMP had some 350,000 paying users; the service costs 99 Norwegian kroner (about $16.50) per month.
Aspiro made 185 million Swedish kroner ($26.6 million) in net sales in 2010, according to Schibsted, and 159 million kroner ($22.9 million) from January to September 2011. The company has plans to launch in Ireland and Germany in the future.
