What does economics have to do with law? Suppose legislators propose that armed robbers receive life imprisonment. Editorial pages applaud them for getting tough on crime. Constitutional lawyers raise the issue of cruel and unusual punishment. Legal philosophers ponder questions of justness. An economist, on the other hand, observes that making the punishment for armed robbery the same as that for murder encourages muggers to kill their victims. This is the cut-to-the-chase quality that makes economics not only applicable to the interpretation of law, but beneficial to its crafting.
Drawing on numerous commonsense examples, in addition to his extensive knowledge of Chicago-school economics, David D. Friedman offers a spirited defense of the economic view of law. He clarifies the relationship between law and economics in clear prose that is friendly to students, lawyers, and lay readers without sacrificing the intellectual heft of the ideas presented. Friedman is the ideal spokesman for an approach to law that is controversial not because it overturns the conclusions of traditional legal scholarsit can be used to advocate a surprising variety of political positions, including both sides of such contentious issues as capital punishmentbut rather because it alters the very nature of their arguments. For example, rather than viewing landlord-tenant law as a matter of favoring landlords over tenants or tenants over landlords, an economic analysis makes clear that a bad law injures both groups in the long run. And unlike traditional legal doctrines, economics offers a unified approach, one that applies the same fundamental ideas to understand and evaluate legal rules in contract, property, crime, tort, and every other category of law, whether in modern day America or other times and placesand systems of non-legal rules, such as social norms, as well.
This book will undoubtedly raise the discourse on the increasingly important topic of the economics of law, giving both supporters and critics of the economic perspective a place to organize their ideas.

Friedman¿s primer on the law and economics field is well-received overall. Through many example legal scenarios, he illustrates the economic approach to legal analysis. Although the mini-cases are sometimes too exhaustive, they do serve the purpose of demonstrating that most, if not all, legal rules can be analyzed through the fundamental cost-benefit approach of economics. Efficiency, in the sense of maximizing the size of the economic ¿pie,¿ should be the central focus of legal systems, Friedman argues, and in particular of common law. Also very interesting, for a layperson in the field of law such as me, was the recurring distinction between property rules and liability rules, a distinction Friedman shows has its basis in economic considerations (namely, transactions costs). Not having read any other work of the law and economics literature, I found the brief introduction to its history and motivation useful, as well as the references to important texts and articles, such as the seminal works of Coase and Posner. Although bogged down at times by the very detailed examples, Friedman¿s work seems to be a fine introduction to law and economics.

First off, I want to let you know that I searched the forum for this answer ... and while there are solutions, none of those solutions worked for me.
Anyway, I keep getting the following error...
"imagename.jpg" has failed to upload due to an error
The uploaded file could not be moved to /var/www/vhosts/websitename.com/httpdocs/wp-content/uploads.
Everyone says the uploads directory needs to be CHMOD'D to 777 ... which I have done and I still get the error.
Other posts have said that I need to create the uploads folder manually, and a folder inside called 2011 (for the year) and a folder inside that called 03 (for the month). All of them need to be CHMOD'd to 777. Tried it.
Someone ever recommended using just 755, because "Some servers are touchy". Still didin't work. Still getting the same error.
Is there another thing I can try? Some setting I need to get my webhost to change? Please help! Thanks!

I am trying to make my first WP theme, but I'm unsure about what is the best way of mixing PHP and HTML in there. What has me the most confused is that in TwentyTen and many other themes, PHP open and closing tags are used every line - even if it's continuous PHP code with no HTML - like this:
<?php if ( $post->post_type == 'post' ) { ?>
<?php edit_post_link(); ?>
<?php } ?>
Sometime ago I was told that opening and closing PHP tags should be avoided as it slows down things? What's the difference between the example above and below, and which is better/faster or correct way to do this?
<?php if ( $post->post_type == 'post' ) {
} ?>

To whom it may concern,
Seriously people, quit running off with the fucking anchor biners. Aside from being a douche baggy thing to do, it shows a severe lack of respect to the community, and especially to those individuals who put in the effort to establish new lines. The reason I put those big lockers on the anchors is because they will last a hell of a long time, and every body gets to benefit from them.

|I put up a few routes here in the early 80's with Dan Dingle. They were on the north facing side lower down. I can remember one with a bolt or two. Seems like we had some weird home made hangers too. Can't remember what we called it. I think we did a few more right near that one.

|Hey CJD....I know the old bolted route with home made hangers you mentioned. I called it "Original Route" in the Lower Solitude area. It's a good route. All the little bolts wiggled in their holes as I trembled my way up it.....so later I came and replaced them with new bolts....and later some anchors. It rarely gets done because it's further up the wall but I still consider it one of the best lines up there. I'd love to know the original name. I'll credit you with the F.A..

I don't believe in Trash Bin and when I delete something I want it to be gone forever, how to turn off the Trash?
P.S. When I delete files from the console do they also go to Trash?
I don't believe in Trash Bin and when I delete something I want it to be gone forever, how to turn off the Trash?
P.S. When I delete files from the console do they also go to Trash?
You can add a delete action as described at How to delete files bypassing trash . Files deleted from the console are immediately removed, but please note that under some circumstances they can still be recovered, if you want to securely delete files use the "wipe" command.
You can use Shift+Delete instead of Delete to delete file(s) forever, but don't forget; If you delete the file forever, you can't easily get it back.
Yes, console deletes have no "recycle" action - they are gone.
I too am one of those who have been bugged by this problem for a number of years ... unsatisfied with the existing proposals, I've recently taken the time to investigate a solution myself.
Starting with the premise that I want the Trash to be gone system-wide, I've found that -- for the time being -- the only real solution is to create a custom-compiled version of libgio (» GIO) which is modified to call g_file_delete() every time an application calls g_file_trash().
For all technology savvy users interested in this solution: I've just recently posted a step-by-step guide on The IT community:
Globally disable GNOME's Trash in Debian-based distributions
I hope this is of (some) help to those who hate the Trash with the same passion as I do ...
You can set the immutable bit.
To do so, first empty the trash:
And then:
After that, when you delete or move something to the trash, you'll get the following message:

Good enough for my needs.

There are several reasons why manicure tables are extremely helpful when giving a manicure. If you have ever tried giving a manicure without something to give your client's hands support you will understand the usefulness of manicure tables. Manicure tables offer a flat surface for your clients to rest their hands on while they are receiving their service, but they also allow you a surface to arrange your tools and have them available for your service. Manicure tables are a great way to organize your tools for your manicures. Some manicure tables will have several drawers and compartments for keeping the manicure tools and products. Manicure prices range in prices. For example one company that sells manicure equipment, American Beauty, carries many brands of manicure tables and nail tables for any budget from low $99.00 to high $2000.00 each. Check out the different manicure tables for sale and see which one best suits your needs. If you currently reside in Chicago, click here for great deals. There are many brands that create manicure tables that are both functional and stylish at the same time. Manicure tables will make your job as a manicurist easier and help make the client feel comfortable and relaxed.
If you own a nail salon (or any type of establishment that regularly provides people with manicures), you need to invest in manicure tables!
To find the best manicure tables at the LOWEST discounted prices, click here.
Why? There are several reasons why manicure tables are a must-have:
- They give your salon a neat, uniform look.
- Customers expect them. If you don't have manicure tables, people may conclude that your business is under-equipped or unaware of the industry standards.
- They make it easier for your nail technicians to do their job – especially when it comes to more detailed work, such as applying acrylics.
- Built-in drawers and shelves make organizing polish and other supplies a snap.
- Many come equipped with a lamp to facilitate precision work and increase visibility for the manicurist.
Of course, you'll need more than just a few manicure tables to fully outfit your nail salon. Pedicure chairs (complete with footbaths), comfortable chairs for both patrons and employees to sit in, and furniture for the waiting area are all necessary elements – and the manicure table may be the most essential piece of all. If you currently reside in Los Angeles, click here for the best deals available.
Your salon must have a manicure table and pedicure station, otherwise you may miss out on a huge opportunity to provide your clients with one of the most popular salon services. Many women and men get manicures on a weekly basis. This is good residual income for your salon, especially when clients are in between hair appointments. You want them to utilize your services more than every eight weeks when they come in for a cut and color. Make sure your technicians offer the latest trends in nail care and design—gel coatings, silicon wraps, seasonal colors—and have the best tools of the trade. Your manicure table should always be clean and tidy and manicure tools such as files, cuticle nippers, nail clippers, etc. should be sanitized before working on a new client.
I know a lot of women with curly hair are constantly battling to get it straighter. Me? I love my curls, and I have a few Phoenix hair salons to thank for that. When I was younger and still not really sure how to care for my curls they used to drive me nuts, but as I've gotten older and had a lot of helpful advice from my stylists, I've learned how to bring out the best in my curls. Now I get stopped on the street and asked what I do to make my hair so amazing. So what's my secret? Organic hair products. I use products with as few chemicals as possible. I also use essential oils on my hair. I particularly like to use jojoba oil and coconut oil. Coconut oil is one of the few oils able to actually penetrate the hair shaft, and jojoba oil balances the scalp's natural moisture very well. My hair salon told me about using organic shampoo and conditioner, but I figured out the oil thing on my own. Next, I get regular trims. I literally go once a month. Regular trims keep your hair healthy because the minute your hair has any damage (and curly hair gets damaged quickly) the damage starts to creep up the lengths of your hair). Those are my best secrets. Hopefully the next time you go to a hair salon in Phoenix your stylist will teach you some new tricks that you can share with me! If you do end up going, make sure to try out these great deals on the salons there.
My friends have always told me I should be a redhead. They've always said that I was born a redhead but my hair just didn't get the memo. So one day, one of my friends called a bunch of hair salons in Milwaukee and made an appointment for me to get my hair colored. She picked me up, with me thinking we were just going to get lunch, and took me to the hair salon. She pulled up in front of the salon and said "Okay I made you an appointment, you can take it or leave it." I died laughing when i saw the facial equipment. I couldn't believe she'd done something so impulsive and random. But in the end, I decided to go for it. We went inside and I met my stylist, James. James told me I was going to be an incredible redhead. We agreed that I'd look best with a really rich dark red, almost an auburn color. James went back to mix my color and I flipped through magazines looking for pictures of redhead celebrities to make myself feel confident I was making the right choice. When James came back he sensed my anxiety immediately. He reassured me that red is actually a very difficult color to keep. He told me if I hated it, it would fade within a month anyway and hardly be noticeable. That made me relax. He applied the color and let it sit for about a half hour. Then he took me back to the sinks, washed it out, and gave me a blowout. Once the appointment was over, I left the hair salon with my friend finally feeling like myself. We all went out in Milwaukee that night and I got hit on more than ever.
Last summer I had a wedding to go to in Detroit. It was a black tie affair, so I decided to get my hair done in an updo. I searched Detroit Hair Salons and found one that had a styling appointment available. I wasn't entirely sure what kind of updo I wanted when I got there. My stylist asked me, and I told her to just do a chignon. She asked me if I'd ever seen a knotted chignon. No, I hadn't. She showed me some pictures and I absolutely loved it. It wasn't quite as stiff looking as most chignons. It had a lot of movement and seemed a little more formal. So I decided to go for it. She started by spraying my hair with a volumizer and then re-dried it at the roots, lifting with a round brush. Then she parted my hair to one side and used some hairspray to secure my bangs. Then she started working in the back. I'm not exactly sure what she was doing, but I know she made a few different sections and was making all kinds of loops and swoops with my hair. Once she was done, she turned me around and gave me a mirror so I could look at the back. It was stunning! I was amazing at the volume. She made it a little looser than the pictures I'd seen, so it had an upscale casual effect to it. I'm so glad I found such a great stylist in Detroit on such short notice. I feel like that really says something about the caliber of hair salons there. Click here to find the best deals on all the ones I would recommend.
I used to want to cry when I'd see models in shampoo commercials with their perfect hair, but ever since I've started visiting a couple Columbus Hair Salons I no longer feel that way. My hair is super smooth and shiny now. I think the hair salons I've been going to understand how to care for my hair better than any other salon. I've always had pretty fine hair, but it's also very dry. Or at least, it used to be. Now every time I go to the salon they give me a conditioning treatment. These really help add moisture to my ends. But they've also done a great job educating me on how to care for my hair. Click here to find the best deals on the salons I visited.
I honestly think some salons hold back information so you'll keep having to come to them to fix your hair. They taught me that even though my hair is fine I can still skip the shampoo every day thing. In fact, they said the only people who might need to shampoo every day are coal miners. Even marathon runners who run everyday are generally just getting sweat in their hair, not dirt. Sweat isn't actually bad for your hair and it doesn't take more than conditioner to wash it out. Only true dirt needs to be washed with shampoo. And c'mon it's 2012, how often are people really getting dirt in their hair? So with all these new tips every man in Columbus has been eyeing my bouncy hair. I love my hair salon for making this happen.
Fashion has become part and parcel of everyday lives of people. To fulfill this need of its citizens, Austin hosts some of the most renowned salons in US. To fulfill their desire for beautiful hair and body, people look for offers that are worthwhile. austin salon deals vary from salon to salon. Salons which have huge fan base and customer data base are less worried about giving customers discounts and coupons.
Austin salon discounts may vary from 50% to 71%. Give Girly Glam gives discount of up to 50% to its customers on Pigtails and Crew cuts. In addition to this, they are able to retain customers by giving buy one get one offer. For instance, you can get free conditioner on getting a haircut. One of the most impressive Hair Salons In Austin is the offer of 62% discount. One particular salon helps you save $150 on $400 spent on the extension of hair locks. Try this deal here now.
The salon named Salon Cherie gives a discount of 71% which means that you will be able to save $99 on a purchase of $350, but the tragedy with such offers is that they are limited time offers which expire in maximum of 5 to 6 days. Many salons give limited time offers to encourage people to purchase the deals because they seem economical to them. Due to this quest of people, salons are able to earn big money.
Austin salon coupons work in a similar way to discounts. The only difference is that you will have to scratch the coupon to save money on the purchase. Many of the new offers given by salons in Austin are online and you can purchase them easily by clicking on the option of 'get it'. Great Scot Salon went as far as giving 81% discount on complete package that includes haircut, Gloss, deep conditioning, styling and more. There are other salons that give 50 to 60% discount on all types of salon services.
Apart from hair color, haircuts, facial equipment, shampoos, conditioning, pedicure and manicure, many salons also give spa treatment. Discount on spa is very common practice among most of the salons in Austin. Many salons in the city require clients to take appointments, while for others, no formal appointment is required. Many well established salons require formal appointments to prevent inconvenience to the customers. Some salons try to attract kids by giving special offers like kid's airplane chair.
Salon vouchers can sometimes turn up in unexpected places. For example if you apply for car, home or buildings insurance vouchers are sometimes offered as an incentive. These can be worth significant amounts of money, so it is always worth checking to see what is available. Many Indiana hair salons offer these discounts frequently.
In fact any kind of financial purchase might offer vouchers. There are usually conditions attached, such as expiry dates, or that the vouchers cannot be used for special offer products, or perhaps only used for certain types of product or in certain places. Nevertheless if you choose carefully you can achieve useful savings. With the surge in popularity of the internet you have the ideal means to find those offers best suited to your needs
The offers are not restricted to financial products, however. Virtually any large purchase might come with a voucher offer, and if you are looking particularly for salon vouchers this provides retailers with a means to influence your purchase. They can for example attract that segment of society which habitually visits Indiana beauty salons or which buys beauty products, believing that this segment forms the biggest potential market for their product.
So-called junk mail is another fruitful source for vouchers. Selling through leaflets or junk mail is expanding rapidly, and the advertisers are well aware that they are operating in a crowded and competitive market. Printing a voucher on a leaflet or other advertising material which comes through your door is a great attention grabbing technique for the advertiser. For you it is an easy and convenient way to find the offers that interest you. It takes very little time to scan through the leaflets, probably less time than it does to search the internet, and who knows the perfect offer might be just waiting there on your doormat.
Trade shows are another potential source, if you have the time, opportunity and inclination to attend. Here you can pick up some excellent vouchers for many types of beauty treatment.
An automatic massage chair is one of the more sophisticated pieces of equipment for the beauty salon. Using a combination of mechanical hands and air bags virtually any type of massage can be programmed into the chair for hair salons in arkansas. Try them here.
The automatic functions often mimic the actions of a human masseur, using a combination of circular, tapping and pummeling actions.
A circular kneading action will improve muscle tone, and relieve strain and tension. This is particularly beneficial when applied to the back.
A pummeling motion is very good for stimulating blood circulation and general relaxation. The intensity can be adjusted to suit the particular client's needs.
A tapping form of massage, simulating the actions of an experienced masseur's hands and fingers, will produce a pleasant sense of relaxation and help increase oxygen delivery to the area treated. Best Salons In Arkansas
An almost infinite range of variations can be achieved by combining these three basic actions. Adjusting the intensity of each action allows treatment to be directed to the particular needs of the individual client.
The more sophisticated chairs also have sensors which can detect the contours of the body and automatically adjust the massage pads and arms for maximum effectiveness. In many cases it is then only necessary to select the required massage level, expressed perhaps as light massage, ache-relieving massage or stress relieving massage. The chair will automatically position the massage pads to give the required relief, guaranteeing excellent results for all clients.
Complete body massage from head to toe can be achieved using this equipment. It is comfortable and safe to use and a great way to get a top-grade massage in a relaxing atmosphere. Many chairs are also provided with entertainment options such as an MP3 player. Some will even synchronize the massage with the music, for an enhanced experience.
One of my favorite gifts to give as well as receive is a trip to a lovely spa. Sometimes I'll round up all my girlfriends and we'll go together. Its relaxing, a great time to bond, but unfortunately can be very expensive if you don't handle the research portion right. Yes, I said research. It is extremely important to see what kind of deals are out there before you go to any spa. You want the best Los Angeles spa equipment possible. If you're anything like me then your spa-going habits have cut into your budget a number of times and made you feel a bit guilty and irresponsible. Fortunately, there a plenty of great Los Angeles spa deals out there to make the trip to your favorite spa fun, guilt-free, and affordable.
Once I discovered this tactic it became the ultimate treat for myself as well as others. My girlfriends really appreciate when i take them out on a package deal I received. Nothing beats great service for 50% off! I highly recommend you start researching your deals beforehand like I do if you want to get the most out of your spa visits. Remember, i didn't have to cut down on my spa-going because of all the money I began saving when going. Now that sounds like a great deal doesn't it?
What are the features that make manicure tables right for your business? There are many different styles of these tables and choosing the best ones for a busy nail spa business or a salon where nail services are provided. So what are the primary features that should be sought out for the best manicure stations?
First, look for tables that come with adjustable heights. This is very important because manicurists will be sitting at these tables for hours every day. If they do not have the chance to adapt the table to their personal needs they may develop work related injuries in their elbows, wrists, and back.
Second, seek a table with many drawers that are versatile and able to be used to conveniently holding supplies. It will save time and make customers happier if the technician can simply reach for the supply they need rather than having to leave the client waiting while the technician goes to get something that they need.
Lastly, look for tables that have a good warranty so that if there is every a problem with them they can be easily replaced.

In setting up an Active Directory domain controller, I have been asked the following question, and I'm unsure how to answer it. I was wondering if someone could help me?
"By default, the wizard configures this domain controller to function as a DNS server. Under what circumstances would it be practical not to configure this domain controller to be a DNS server?"

Finance Leadership & Development
Professional accountants need to respond to the continually changing expectations of their organizations, the financial markets, and society. In addition, many accountants aspire to finance leadership roles, such as chief financial officer (CFO). As a result, they must fulfill their traditional responsibilities, while increasing their support of strategic and operational decision-making. Through education, life-long learning, and development, they must acquire the right mixture of skills, experiences, and attitudes, including leadership, strategy, business, management, and interpersonal skills.

In the last few decades, much has changed in the way nurses and the rest of the team at St. Alexius Medical Center have delivered care to hundreds of women and children.
But while technology and care techniques have advanced, the amount of space in which that care is delivered in the neonatal and pediatric units, and the labor and delivery rooms, among others on the hospitals campus in northwest suburban Hoffman Estates, has not kept pace.
That will change later this year when the Alexian Brothers Hospital Network opens its new Womens and Childrens Hospital on the St. Alexius Medical Center campus.
The opening of the six-story, $117 million addition at St. Alexius marks the culmination of years of planning, development and fundraising for Arlington Heights-based Alexian Brothers.
Executives at the hospital said the completion of the project also represents the fulfillment of a huge team effort, involving contractors, architects and designers who brought to life a vision laid out by Alexian Brothers staff from top health system administrators to the staff nurses.
"This has been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said Joan Cappelletti, RN-BC, MSN, MSML, St. Alexius executive director of nursing.
The new facility will offer all private patient rooms, as well as amenities to enhance the comfort of patients and visitors, including "family areas" in each of the 32 new mother-baby rooms, with a refrigerator and space for another support person to sleep.
While units share floors in the current hospital, each unit will get its own floor in the new building, Cappelletti said.
Pediatrics and the PICU, for instance, will occupy the second floor, while the NICU will have its own space on the fourth floor.
The new facility will allow the hospital to enhance its services to expectant and delivering mothers, with more labor-and-delivery rooms and operating rooms in the labor-and-delivery area.
Cappelletti and other nursing administrators said the layout of the new facility, and a number of the choices in design and amenities, were the result of the input of nurses as well as a family advisory board that included mothers and fathers of children who had received care at St. Alexius.
She said the design and review process began three years ago.
Korina Sanchez, RN, BSN, and director of St. Alexius NICU, said nursing directors and select staff nurses participated for weeks in a painstaking process to attend to just about every detail of patient rooms in each of the new units.
She and Pamela Jorgenson, RN, BSN, CPN, assistant director of pediatrics at St. Alexius, lauded contractors who took the time in January and February 2012 to construct mock-ups of the various patient rooms and then allowed 14 nursing teams to essentially redesign the rooms to fit the needs of patients and the healthcare providers.
The contractors even transported the actual equipment nurses would be using into the mock-up rooms, to allow nurses to move their tools and furniture around, to show the building team how best to lay out the rooms.
Each time the nurses finished reviewing the mock-up rooms, the rooms would be full of sticky notes on the walls, floors, windows, light fixtures, furniture and other elements, Sanchez said.
"Wed do it, then they would go back and redesign the rooms," Jorgenson said. "And wed come back and do it again, each time with a few more tweaks.
"They were very patient," she added with a laugh.
The nurses who participated in the room reviews also led meetings later with other staff nurses, to share news and gather feedback on the process.
Sanchez and Jorgenson said the new spaces will improve patient care, as well as nurses work environment, placing them closer to the patients and putting their tools nearer at hand.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Country Music Hall of Famer George Jones isn't a big fan of where the genre has moved in recent years.
When asked about what he thought about music by today's top country stars, the 78-year-old said while they are good, "they've stolen our identity."
He also says he finds rap "tacky."
Jones recently put out a new CD, through Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, called "A Collection of My Best Recollection."

"Philly" Philadelphia by bwk_michael
Philadelphia Travel Guide: 2,214 reviews and 4,547 photos
Philadelphia is the largest city in Pennsylvania and the sixth most populous city in the United States. It is the 5th largest metropolitan area by population in the United States, and the fourth largest consumer media market as ranked by the Neilsen Media Research Co. It is the county seat of Philadelphia County, with which it is coterminous.
Its name literally means "the City of Brotherly Love" (from Greek: �����������), Modern Greek: "brotherly love" from philos "love" and adelphos "brother"), though many people think this is just a nickname. Tourists and media often informally call the city "Philly." The city is recognized as a strong candidate global city.
In 2005, the population of the city proper was estimated to be over 1.4 million,while the Delaware Valley metropolitan area, with a population of 5.8 million, was the fifth-largest in the United States. A commercial, educational, and cultural center, the city was once the second-largest in the British Empire,(after London) and the social and geographical center of the original 13 American colonies. During the 18th century, it eclipsed New York City in political and social importance, with Benjamin Franklin taking a large role in Philadelphia's early rise to prominence. It was in this city that some of the ideas, and subsequent actions, gave birth to the American Revolution and American independence, making Philadelphia a centerpiece of early American history. It was the most populous city of the young United States and served as the the nation's first capital in the 1790s.
The history of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, goes back to 1682, when the city was founded by William Penn.
Before then, the area was inhabited by the Lenape (Delaware) Indians and Swedish settlers who arrived in the area in the early 1600s. Philadelphia quickly grew into an important colonial city and during the American Revolution was the site of the First and Second Continental Congresses. After the Revolution the city was chosen to be the temporary capital of the United States. At the beginning of the 19th century, the federal and state governments left Philadelphia, but the city remained the cultural and financial center of the country. Philadelphia became one of the first U.S. industrial centers and the city contained a variety of industries, the largest being textiles.
After the American Civil War Philadelphia's government was controlled by a corrupt Republican political machine and by the beginning of the 20th Century Philadelphia was described as "corrupt and contented." Various reform efforts slowly changed city government with the most significant in 1950 where a new city charter strengthened the position of mayor and weakened the Philadelphia City Council. At the same time Philadelphia moved its support from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party which has since created a strong Democratic organization. The city began a population decline in the 1950s as mostly white and middle class families left for the suburbs. Many of Philadelphia's houses were in poor condition and lacked proper facilities, and gang and mafia warfare plagued the city. Revitalization and gentrification of certain neighborhoods started bringing people back to the city. Promotions and incentives in the 1990s and the early 21st century have improved the city's image and created a condominium boom in Center City and the surrounding areas that has slowed the population decline
Philadelphia contains many national historical sites that relate to the founding of the United States. Independence National Historical Park is the center of these historical landmarks. Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed, and the Liberty Bell are the city's most famous attractions. Other historic sites include homes for Edgar Allan Poe and Betsy Ross and early government buildings like the First and Second Banks of the United States.
Philadelphia's major science museums include the Franklin Institute, which contains the Benjamin Franklin National Memorial, the Academy of Natural Sciences, and the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. History museums include the National Constitution Center, the Atwater Kent Museum of Philadelphia History, the National Museum of American Jewish History, the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons in the state of Pennsylvania and The Masonic Library and Museum of Pennsylvania and Eastern State Penitentiary. Philadelphia is home to the United States' first zoo and hospital.
Philadelphia has a long history of professional sports teams, and is one of thirteen U.S. cities to have all four major sports: the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League, the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League, the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League of Major League Baseball, and the Philadelphia 76ers in the National Basketball Association. The last major professional sport team to win a championship was the 76ers, which won the NBA Championship in 1983. Due to the length of this streak without winning a sports championship, in 2004 ESPN ranked Philadelphia as number two in its list of The Fifteen Most Tortured Sports Cities. The failure of Philadelphia's major professional sports teams to win championships since that date is sometimes attributed, in jest, to the so-called "Curse of Billy Penn". The Oakland Athletics and Golden State Warriors were originally from Philadelphia.
Philadelphia also is home to professional, semi-professional and elite amateur teams in other sports, including cricket. Philadelphia also hosts major amateur sporting events, including the Penn Relays, Stotesbury Cup, Philadelphia Marathon, and Philadelphia International Championship bicycle race, and the Dad Vail Regatta.
In February 2008, Philadelphia beat off competition many cities, namely St. Louis, to be awarded the 16th Major League Soccer franchise. They will enter the league in 2010 calling Chester Stadium their home (a soccer specific stadium) in Chester, PA.

Lexus IS sales are currently split around 50:50 between fleet and retail customers. And while the new hybrid IS 300h will be aimed at the former market, private buyers are still expected to opt for the IS 250, powered by the 2.5-litre petrol engine from the current car.
Our test car was disguised and the model won't be unveiled until next month's Detroit Motor Show, but its looks will be inspired by the LF-CC concept. The new IS uses the same platform as the latest GS, giving a longer wheelbase and wider track than the current car.
Inside, there's more space, particularly in the rear, while the front seats are now mounted lower, meaning a sportier driving position and extra headroom.
A higher centre console will also feature, along with improved trim materials – judging from the parts of the interior left exposed on our test car. The gearshifter has a higher-quality feel, too.
On the move, the V6 makes the same sonorous noise as before, although it's not quite as smooth as Jaguar's latest 3.0-litre V6 for the XF and XJ. Performance is sharp, however: the petrol engine and auto box combination is more responsive than the hybrid's drivetrain.
Steering and braking are more precise, too, and you can tailor the driving experience with Drive Mode Select, which offers Eco, Normal or Sport S settings.

Well-known anti-royal protester Castislav Sam Bracanov today
denied a charge of common assault laid over the mud-flinging.
Outside the Auckland District Court, Bracanov told reporters
his grudge against Banks dated back to the early 1990s when
Banks was police minister in Jim Bolger's National
A member of the royal family, or "the smell" as Bracanov
calls them, visited and he decided to hurl mud at a
slow-moving car ferrying a royal.
He was fined $10,000, which he said was excessive, and blamed
Banks for.
By 1997 Banks was a talkback host on Radio Pacific and
Bracanov was a caller.
"He's the one who cut me off," Bracanov said.
When asked why he pleaded not guilty to throwing mud at
Banks, he said: "Because I did not do it. I [did] purposely
to him what he did to me."
Bracanov said a fine of $1000 to $2000 was more reasonable
but added that he was now even with Banks.
"This is not an insult. It's revenge."
Banks' High Court trial accused of falsifying an electoral
return was delayed by more than two hours after he had to
change his suit after the mud was thrown at him.
Bracanov was agitated when he first appeared in the dock
today and was taken into custody to calm down before he came
back and entered his plea. He was bailed until his next
appearance in August.
- Jimmy Ellingham of APNZ
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.
Mr Bracanov's first recorded target was Prince Juan Carlos,
the Royal who succeeded General Franco, who was not Royal.
Now, King Juan is abdicating, so the curse still rings true.
This man should be punished with another heavy fine. At that
time, Bank was just doing his job. If this man is found not
guilty, what message is the law sending out.

Haman Impaled
Haman Impaled
1 So the king and Haman went to Queen Esther�s banquet,
2 and as they were drinking wine on the second day, the king again asked, �Queen Esther, what is your petition? It will be given you. What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be granted.�
3 Then Queen Esther answered, �If I have found favor with you, Your Majesty, and if it pleases you, grant me my life�this is my petition. And spare my people�this is my request.
4 For I and my people have been sold to be destroyed, killed and annihilated. If we had merely been sold as male and female slaves, I would have kept quiet, because no such distress would justify disturbing the king.[a] �
5 King Xerxes asked Queen Esther, �Who is he? Where is he�the man who has dared to do such a thing?�
Esther said, �An adversary and enemy! This vile Haman!�
Then Haman was terrified before the king and queen.
7 The king got up in a rage, left his wine and went out into the palace garden. But Haman, realizing that the king had already decided his fate, stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life.
Just as the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was reclining.
The king exclaimed, �Will he even molest the queen while she is with me in the house?�
As soon as the word left the king�s mouth, they covered Haman�s face.
Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said, �A pole reaching to a height of fifty cubits[b] stands by Haman�s house. He had it set up for Mordecai, who spoke up to help the king.�
The king said, �Impale him on it!�
10 So they impaled Haman on the pole he had set up for Mordecai. Then the king�s fury subsided.

New Semi Trailer!
In the past, the Kingsmen program have traveled to competitions throughout California and Arizona using a semi truck that was generously donated by an alumni parent of Mr. Grays. Over the years, the trailer has taken quite a beating from both the road and boosters like myself trying to help load everything quickly after a show. Well, the Kingsmen just purchased a "new to us" semi trailer to replace the one currently in our fleet! This trailer is a former moving van-style trailer with doors on each side to better facilitate loading/unloading and is few feet longer than our previous unit.
It needs a bit of work. Over the coming months the Kingsmen boosters are planning to transform this trailer into our new main transportation unit. This involves running new wiring, building a second interior deck, constructing stairs, removing rust, and wrapping it to match the other vehicles in our fleet. This is a monumental task but, we know we can accomplish the goal. If you would like to volunteer time and/or funding towards this project please contact Mr. Gray. A gofundme (or similar) page will be set up shortly to help facilitiate the donation process specifically for the wrap component.

Google Glass had nothing on the VuMan 3, a portable computer worn by Marines at Camp Pendleton in 1993. The system – a processor worn on a belt and wired to a headband display – led mechanics through a 50-page inspection checklist for amphibious tractors.
The checklist had 600 data points, which took six hours to complete. A second Marine then had to transcribe the notes.
