I am curious why The Journal wasted one quarter of the editorial page on Marc Thiessen�s pathetic attempt to justify waterboarding (�Here�s a better definition of �torture,�� Commentary, Aug. 19).
He spends six paragraphs quoting American servicemen who suffered �actual� torture by the North Vietnamese, yet conveniently leaves out John McCain, who was tortured for five and a half years. This is what McCain had to say: �It [waterboarding] is not a complicated procedure. It is torture.�

Jackson Sisters
~ Group
The Jackson Sisters (not to be confused with the Cincinnati Jackson Sisters nor the Jackson sisters, La Toya, Janet, and Rebbie who were the siblings to American soul group the Jackson Five) were an American soul and disco family group in the 1970s. The group hailed from Compton, California but were based in Detroit, Michigan.
The Jackson Sisters were Jacqueline Jackson-Rencher, Lyn Jackson, Pat Jackson, Rae Jackson and Gennie Jackson. They recorded material for the Tiger Lily Records label, obtaining some modest success in the 1970s. However the group really came into their own nearly a decade later, following the emergence of the rare groove scene in the UK. Many of their songs were written by Johnny Bristol. I Believe In Miracles, their hit song, was written and originally recorded by Mark Capanni in 1973. The track reached #72 in the UK Singles Chart in June 1987.

The Merit is a four-door sedan featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto IV. It is manufactured by Declasse in the HD Universe.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Merit is originally based on a fifth generation (1991-1996) Mazda 929, and is one of a handful of vehicles in GTA San Andreas with a rounded body design.
Grand Theft Auto IV
In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Merit, now bearing a Declasse badge, is redesigned with a similar look to the 1999-2005 Chevrolet Impala LS (evidenced by the foglights and the spoiler, as does the real-life Impala LS.), with the back seemingly inspired by a fifth generation 1995-1997 Honda Accord. The front bumper could be derived from a variety of cars, but the headlights and front grille are reminiscent of a fourth generation Pontiac GTO. The wheels seem to be based on American Racing's line of chrome IROC-Z wheel replicas. Unlike the Chevrolet Impala, which is a FWD car, the GTA IV rendition of the Merit is a RWD car.
The Merit is also the standard base for the Police Patrol and the Taxi.
Current Design Gallery
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
This rendition of the Merit is designed as a balanced out performance, having average brake response and cornering, and good acceleration and speed. Coupled with its four-seat capacity, the Merit is practically a good choice for drive-bys and police evasion although crash deformation is not impressive. The Output HP for the Merit is 205HP. The Merit is a good starting car for new street racers as it can compare with cars like the Euros and Alpha. The top speed of the Merit is 212KPH.
Grand Theft Auto IV
The GTA IV rendition of the Merit is powered by a V6, mated to a 5 speed transmission in a RWD layout. Acceleration is good, but nothing special, and in line with the Merit's vanilla, everyday sedan image. Top speed is good: 205 mph(330 km/h). Braking is very good, and ABS is standard. The suspension is very firm, keeping the Merit flat through corners, and enabling it to corner effectively at speed. Accident deformation is acceptable, as the Merit will survive a few frontal impacts before being rendered unusable. The Merit seems suited towards any situation; it's capable of high speeds and it seems able to survive a serious car chase, making it a versatile addition to any parking space.
The GTA IV Merit is equipped with a GPS system with a female voice, but only if the player leaves the "selected cars" (default) option in the audio menu.

Grand Theft Auto IV

- The beta version of the Merit has different grille and rims, as seen in the first trailer.
- The GTA IV rendition of the car unusually features a metal partition between the front and rear occupant compartments, similar to the Taxi and Police Patrol, despite being a private vehicle and thus, having no need for it.
- Sometimes in GTA IV, if police are chasing a criminal on foot, and the player exits a regular Merit, it may be commandered by the police.
- In GTA IV, there is a wrecked version of the Merit. It appears to be the beta version, due to having a different grille and lights. It also appears in GTA V, but with better textures. In GTA V, it can be found at the Scrap Yard, near a destroyed Packer, at a place beside the Harmony Gas Station, and at a yard of a repair shop near LSMC.

Tracking SQL statistics with ExtSQL
Because you might not want to share ExtSQL information with every user, the configuration file lets you specify the users who will have access:
The root user is always allowed access.
Controlling ExtSQL
Additional commands (Table 2) allow the database administrator to temporarily suspend data collection, store data, and even change what data is being collected – without a server restart.
A configuration option called extsql_reload_file allows you to store collected data, which is automatically saved and restored during a restart.
Future Directions
Development with ExtSQL should be strong, and we plan to provide a focal point for community discussion, bug reports, fixes, and enhancements.

Maroon 5
Singer/guitarist Adam Levine, guitarist Jesse Carmichael, bass player Mickey Madden and drummer Ryan Dusick's first shot at the big time got them some rave notices, but not much else. Now, after a decade of activity, the three-time Grammy-winning quintet has gone from playing tiny L.A. clubs to becoming one of the biggest bands in the world. The current line-up is Adam Levine, James Valentine, Mickey Madden, Matt Flynn and PJ Morton (currently filling in for Jesse Carmichael, who's on hiatus).
Maroon 5 tour dates
Robin Thicke
R'n'B sprinkled with a touch of pop, that's critically acclaimed singer/songwriter/producer Robin Thicke. Thicke's soulful voice brings to life the emotions present in his songs, which are full of stories of life, love and loss. Robin's voice and singing style are similar to other musical giants like Stevie Wonder and Prince, and the funkier side of his songs certainly owe much to the latter. With a smoothness and intensity to his music, Thicke's song are far from being bland, commercialised R'n'B.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
MERCEDES BENZ OF DAYTONA BEACH: I am a single mother with a great job and have impeccable credit. I was looking for a used Mercedes and was referred by a friend to go to Mercedes Benz of Daytona Beach. When I entered the dealership I was not greeted by anyone until I asked to speak to a sales person and then I still waited for a long time. When I finally spoke to a sales person I was rushed into multiple cars as if it was a race.
I finally told the sales person what I was looking for, a Mercedes C230 sedan. He said they had many and asked how I would be paying. I explained to him that I would like to finance the vehicle, and he looked at me as if I was from Mars. He rudely asked me where my husband was and that it would be better if he singed also. IF THAT'S NOT DISCRIMINATION, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS.
After having to explain myself and my financial situation to a complete stranger, I picked a car that looked like it was NEW, as my sales person explained. I took the car for a test drive and drove it right to my mechanic. He put the car on his lift and 20 minutes later he basically told me this car is JUNK not NEW.
The vehicle has been previously WRECKED even though they told me it has a good Car check. He also told me that it was not mechanically sound. I drove the car back dropped the keys on the sales persons desk he was no where to be found and I stormed out. What a waste of time and energy!!
The moral of this story is that NEVER EVER purchase anything from MERCEDES BENZ OF DAYTONA BEACH. They Discriminate women and they sell junk!! I am amazed that Mercedes would allow such a dealership to operate. Mercedes Benz of Daytona Beach lost my business and everyone that I know.

Posted on 05/02/2006 11:56:46 PM PDT by Joe Bfstplk
Wal-Mart is the only corporation in the world that I know of or have ever heard of that is hated because it is successful. What do these critics want Wal-Mart to do? Fail? Start selling $300 shirts like Saks Fifth Avenue?
Of course, some of the hatred is coming from unions, which have tried but, so far as I know, failed to unionize Wal-Mart's work force. That one thing tells you that it must be a much better deal to work for Wal-Mart than its critics let on. Some of the disdain comes from leftist snobs who think they should run the lives of the peasants who work and shop there.
I am a small-town guy who has hated to see so many locally owned small businesses go under, but that's not Wal-Mart's fault. That trend started years ago with suburban sprawl (a major contributor to the energy crisis, by the way), suburban shopping malls, strip malls and all the other discounters that preceded Wal-Mart in prominence. It was caused by the American public's preference to buy based on price, rather than on service or quality. It was caused by local politicians converting the National Defense Highway System (the interstates) into suburban and urban commuter systems by routing them through instead of around the cities.
Wal-Mart is one of the best-run corporations in the world. The individual consumer has no clout with suppliers and manufacturers. Wal-Mart uses its enormous buying clout to get consumers the best price at the best quality possible. Being a supplier to Wal-Mart is no picnic, as the company is quite demanding.
It's not Wal-Mart's fault that much of its merchandise is manufactured in China. The late Sam Walton went to extraordinary lengths to help American manufacturers, but Wal-Mart doesn't control any corporation except itself. The move to China is not coming from Wal-Mart, but from greedy manufacturing corporations that love cheap and controlled labor. If your competitor is selling an American brand-name product made in China cheaper than you can buy one here, and if the customer says, "I don't care where it's made as long as I can afford it," what are you going to do?
More recently, Wal-Mart has been slammed for not providing what its critics think it should in the way of medical insurance. Well, why is General Motors flirting with bankruptcy? Why is Ford Motor Co. in financial trouble? Why, for that matter, is the federal government in financial trouble? The stinking hag in this room that everyone is ignoring is the high cost of medical service.
You can't provide low-cost health care or low-cost medical insurance for a system run by millionaire doctors and six-figure hospital administrators, and that has 1,200 percent profit margins for drugs and medical devices. The health-industry attitude is, we'll profiteer like crazy, and you people find a way to pay us. If Congress were not a bought-and-paid-for whore, America could join the rest of the industrialized world with a reasonable health-care system.
Health-care costs are one of the key factors in making American manufacturers uncompetitive. Now that the state of Maryland has presumed to dictate what kind of benefits Wal-Mart provides, if I ran the company, I'd close every store in the state and put the property up for sale. This is just one more ploy in the anti-Wal-Mart crusade.
We have reached a sick and perverted point in our culture when honesty and success bring attacks, mainly from people who either don't know what they are talking about or have a hidden agenda.
Millions of Americans who earn low wages from other employers rely on Wal-Mart to help them stretch their family budget. Wal-Mart has kept faith with those people. I've never found a dirty store, a rude employee or a defective product in a Wal-Mart store.
If you prefer to pay more than something's worth in exchange for some phony ambience or fancy label, go right ahead. In the meantime, get off Wal-Mart's back. It's one of the few entities in this country that is doing the right thing the right way for the right reasons.
Good article
What about 'Big Oil'?
Reece is nuts. Try Halliburton, for example. And many other corporations in U.S. history have been hated for being successful. Standard Oil and the old, big railroad companies stand out in U.S. history as having been hated for being successful.
This guy must only go to that one Wal=Mart in the far off land of Oz.
Walmart isn't hated because it is successful. Walmart is hated because it destroys American jobs, American companies, American communities and American wages for it's own good. WalMart is hated because it does what Republicans and Democrats in Washington are currently doing - putting money ahead of Americans and America. This story is just another attempt to whitewash the issue by painting a strawman.
This should be automatically inserted in front of every post at FR.
Yeah, Wal-Mart destroys American jobs, American companies, American communities, and American wages. I mean, who wouldn't want to work for a mom and pop for minimum wage with no insurance?
Wal-Mart hatred is silly. You don't like Wal-Mart, shop somewhere else. Capitalism is good.
Capitalism may be good. That has nothing to do with whether Walmart is or not. Funny that rather than defend them, you resort to defending capitalism which none of us have any beef with.. Strawman anyone?
Why do you hate America?
(joke, it's a joke)
In my neck of the woods, they have a few defective employees. I always say hello to the employees there to greet customers at the door, and more than half the time they don't acknowledge. They will look right at you and say nothing. Maybe they need to be rotated a little more frequently, eh?
And by the way, if they DON'T close up every store in Maryland, they're not practicing capitalism, they're an accessory after the fact to fascism.
Capitalism may be good, but it's not always kind, warm and fuzzy.
Suggested reading: Joseph Schumpeter/creative destruction
The greeters in my area are always nice and respond when I say 'hi'!
They are almost always senior citizens, which may account for their politeness......
Sometimes it is a problem actually FINDING someone to help you in the rest of the store.
Why am I going to pay more if I dont have to?
anyone have an Ace Hardware near them? I can't understand how they can afford to have 1 guy for every 3 aisles to walk up to you "can I help you?"
Spend 5 minutes in there and four people will ask you if you need help. Its NOT a good thing after a while
"Hello ... Ma?"
"You can't provide low-cost health care or low-cost medical insurance for a system run by millionaire doctors and six-figure hospital administrators, and that has 1,200 percent profit margins for drugs and medical devices. The health-industry attitude is, we'll profiteer like crazy, and you people find a way to pay us."
Apparently, Mr. Reese hates the medical profession for the same reasons other folks hate Wal-Mart. Author, heal thyself.
Does this mean that your alternative is SOCIALISM? Just wondering. Amen.
That may have been the case in the past.
Sorry, but I have to disagree with you. Capitalism isn't good. No.
Capitalism is OUTSTANDING!
anyone have an Ace Hardware near them? I can't understand how they can afford to have 1 guy for every 3 aisles to walk up to you "can I help you?"
Pathetic wages and high prices?
300 dollar shirts, no, but they could stock 40 dollar shirts that don't shrink two sizes and fall apart after two washes. Clothing quality is about the only beef I have with Wal-Mart. I think it's a great store, overall.
That is what this nation said in 1928 and the result was the Smoot Hawley tariff to limit the importation of cheap foreign goods. There was a real rejection of illegal immigration. Italian immigrants were called WOPS because they were undocumented workers. WOPS is an acronym or With Out Papers. The result of the Smoot Hawley tariff and severely limited immigration was the implementation of retaliatory tariffs all over the world. The result of that was the great world wide depression.
"Wal-Mart is the only corporation in the world that I know of or have ever heard of that is hated because it is successful."
Nah - this phenomenon is more common than you think. When General Motors was on top of the heap they were nothing but a target to everybody from the crackpots to the mainstream media.
The United States itself isn't hated for any logical reason; it's hated all over the globe because it's big and successful in a petty and faltering world. Sort of like Cain rising up and killing Abel because Abel was right and Cain couldn't stand it.
I hate to break this to you, but that's pretty much the way a market-based economy has always worked.
...and Microsoft...
See it only took 6 replies to find one here on FR.
They are all over the place.
Yep, damn that WalMart for being successful under Capitalism! I guess we need to go Socialist so we can have a paradise like the old Soviet Union.
There are a zillion corporations that are paying their help comparable to Walmart. I doubt Burger King and McDonald's hamburger flippers are earning double digit hourly wages.
And yet these same leftist snobs can't get it through their thick skulls that the more demands the government makes on a company, large or small, the less there is to pay employees. For instance, I am surprised at the number of people (usually bleeding heart types) who don't know that the companies we work for have to match our social security and medicare payments out of their gross income.
Maybe it's a drop in the ocean for AT&T but for the small and medium sized small business it's a big chunk. Though I wish all companies would abide by the illegal immigrant hiring laws, I can understand why they try to sneak by hiring them. The government pressures are getting greater and greater on both businesses and individuals. Sometimes one almost feels forced to break an unfair law, not because they want to in a screw you attitude, but because they just won't make be able to make it otherwise.
How can any rational person hate a company that employes millions and then blame them for destroying jobs. Every company is in business to make money and no company puts America and Americans ahead of profit, whatever that means. Here is your solution to the greedy Wal-Mart problem.
"The move to China is not coming from Wal-Mart, but from greedy manufacturing corporations that love cheap and controlled labor."
That, my friend, is what some people call a lie.
Wal-Mart does pressure corporations to send manufacturing offshore to lower-cost manufacturers by demanding from its suppliers, year after year, incrementally lower prices. Wal-Mart's customers don't demand that. Wal-Mart demands that. They demand it so they can dominate the market, drive competitors out of business, and line the already bulging pockets of the Walton clan.
The inevitable effect of Wal-Mart's demands on suppliers is to send American manufacturing jobs to China. Here is but one example:
"Take the L.R. Nelson lawn sprinklers, which used to be made in Peoria, Ill., before Wal-Mart pressured Nelson to make them in China instead. Before the move, one laid-off Peoria worker told the reporter, Chinese managers were "walking around the plant and videotaping us working. That was horrible, horrendous. Right in our faces. They are taking our jobs." (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/12/AR2006041202186_4.html)
...all so Wal-Mart can offer a lawn sprinkler at a lower cost. Maybe I missed where consumers were picketing stores demanding cheaper lawn sprinklers, but I doubt it.
I'm a capitalist. I love to make a fair profit from my customers. But there are limits. I don't demand higher profits where it leads to injury or death. I don't demand higher profits where it leads to sweat shops and child labor. And I don't demand higher profits where it leads to the evisceration of the American manufacturing base, ultimately weakening this country.
If you use google and look up Wal-Mart versus Costco, you will find a number of articles comparing the too.
Short answers to your questions:
1. About 13 percent of Costco's employees are unionized.
2. Costco employees are paid more than average in the retail industry, including more than at Wal-Mart.
3. Costco's health care eligibility requirements for health care are more generous than Wal-Mart's. Specifically, Costco employees become eligible for health insurance after three months working full time, or six months part time. At Wal-Mart, many who work full time must wait six months to become eligible. Part-time workers are not eligible for at least two years. Because of turnover, some employees never work long enough to become eligible. (http://www.brynmawr.edu/admissions/careers/abelson_story2.htm)
Costco has even been criticized by Wall Street analysts for being so generous to its employees. One analyst quipped a few years ago that it was better to be an employee at Costco than to be a shareholder of Costco stock.
As time has passed, however, these criticisms have disappeared. Why? Compare stock performance.
Five years ago, Wal-Mart stock was trading at roughly $52 a share. Today, it's at about $46 a share. If you'd invested $1,000 dollars in Wal-Mart five years ago, you would have lost about $115 dollars.
Five years ago, Costco stock was trading at roughly $35 a share. Today, it's at about $54 a share. If you'd invested $1,000 in Costco five years ago you would have gained about $543.
That's why you don't hear as much criticism of Costco's employee compensation program these days from Wall Street.
Yet despite the Evil Wal-Mart's best efforts--unemployment remains at record lows. If more companies would "destroy America" by lowering prices thereby improving the way of life of the lower-to-middle classes, then we'd be in real trouble.
The problem is not doctors, it's lawyers.
I've never found a dirty store, a rude employee or a defective product in a Wal-Mart store.
I'm no Wal-mart basher, but this person is living in fantasy-land.
Ok, when you actually define your beef with Wal-Mart, instead of just spewing a litany of accusations, I will.
Yes, they do. If they didn't want lower prices, they probably wouldn't be shopping at WalMart.
Maybe I missed where consumers were picketing stores demanding cheaper lawn sprinklers, but I doubt it.
If customers really don't care, you should be able to make a killing selling higher priced products made in the US, or at least not China. But customers by their actions indicate that they really do like cheaper lawn sprinklers.
And I don't demand higher profits where it leads to the evisceration of the American manufacturing base
US manufacturing output keeps rising, albeit with fewer workers due to large productivity increases.
This article is pure BS. It tries to state that Wal-Mart is an innocent victim who is sold Chinese goods against their will.
Wal-Mart seeks out Chinese goods. Period.
That's why I like Ace Hardware, makes it easy to get in and out of the place, they know where everything is and can help you figure out what you need. Much better than Home Depot where you have to lasso somebody to ask a question and the only answer they ever seem to have is "that not in this section, I think it's in (insert section on the other side of the store)".
Wal-Mart seeks out cheap goods. Because that's what their customers want.
Well, we can see that you've read the default response playbook on how to color the dialogue with nonsense. Go stand in the corner.
A depression.. you mean going back to the model that made us a wealthy nation prior to free trade will lead us to a depression. I think you'll need to establish that factually.
Your Smoot Hawley reference is sheer moronic nonsense. Nobody is recommending any such thing. Just another strawman from the treason playbook to color the argument with utter nonsense.
No, sorry. The market based economy in the USA has not always sold out America and Americans for profit. The leftists, maybe.. eg the Rosenburgs..
Damn Walmart for being successful.
Damn Walmart for being successful under capitalism.
Neither is the case. The case was stated plainly. You can't respond to the real issue - selling out America for profit.
Since you can't address that with a straight face and come out smelling of roses, you lie about what the argument is and argue a strawman. You get a time out for deciet. Bye.
How can any rational person hate a system that employs millions of people and then complain that they destroy lives.
Response: "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics"
Every company is in business to make money. Every gun is made to be fired. So by your logic, murder doesn't exist because, hey, that gun was made to be fired. You can't punish someone for putting that gun to it's proper use.. Oh, that's right, there's that thing called ethics.. of which patriotism is a part. I suppose that by your thinking, the Rosenburgs should have been acquited because, hey, they were in business to make money afterall. It doesn't matter by your logic how they do it so long as they make money..
You guys have no shame.

Aurora/East Aurora
Teachers concerned about the emphasis of testing in grades 3 through 8 have organized an informational meeting next month to work on persuading the state that there's a better way.
"We're hoping to educate the public about what's going on in our public schools," said Todd Hathaway, an East Aurora High School teacher and parent of young children. He is the organizer of the "Southtowns Education Summit" at the Southside Municipal Building at 300 Gleed Avenue in Aurora from 6:30 to 8 p.m., Tuesday, January 7.
"There's too much testing. The tests matter far too much."
At the forum, Mark Crawford, superintendent of West Seneca Central School District, will join Mark Garrison, D'Youville College professor of education policy, along with teachers and parents. The event is being sponsored by the faculty associations of East Aurora, Iroquois and Holland.
While Hathaway believes testing is important in high schools, younger children do not benefit from it. "We're pushing a system that's really not developmentally appropriate."
Also this week:
• The Community Music School will give a free hour-long holiday concert of singing by voice students at 11 a.m. on December 28 at Aurora Theatre on Main Street.
• The Aurora Town Board meets at Friday at 11 a.m. at the Southside Municipal Building.
• The East Aurora Village Hall at 571 Main St. will close at 2 p.m. Dec. 24 and reopen at 8 a.m. Dec. 26.

Plugin rocks. It would be great if it cleared the supercache cache so that there is not a delay in announcements going up/down/changing. Here is the code I added to my theme's functions.php file:
function ninja_annc_clear_cache ( $post_id ) {
if (get_post_type( $post_id ) == 'ninja_annc') wp_cache_clear_cache();
add_action( 'edit_post', 'ninja_annc_clear_cache' );
My code may not cover all situations and it's probably overkill to clear cache upon every update instead of just at status changes. Also, to make it more configurable, it should be an option in the plugin settings.

Canas, 26, is out of contract at Betis and joins the ever-growing Spanish contingent at the Premier League club.
He is a deep-lying midfielder and could start next season playing alongside Leon Britton with Swansea as yet unsure whether they will be able to sign Villarreal's Jonathan De Guzman on a permanent deal following a successful loan spell.
Canas came through the youth system at Betis and helped the Seville side record an impressive seventh-place finish in La Liga this season.
Meanwhile, Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins has taken the opportunity to deny reports in the media that he has fallen out with manager Michael Laudrup over the size of the transfer budget available this summer.
"Myself, the manager and our recruitment staff are all agreed on the quality of players we would like to sign to help us remain competitive in the Barclays Premier League," Jenkins said.
"We are continuing to work behind the scenes, in private wherever and whenever we can, to strengthen our squad. For that reason it's disappointing that I have to respond to the speculation of unrest at the club after the fantastic season we have had.
"There are substantial funds available to strengthen our squad over the summer while we are also in the privileged position, because of the way we've managed our finances over the years, that we do not need to sell anyone to fund those new recruits.
"It goes without saying that some of our targets will sign for other clubs for different reasons. But that's the same for every club. The important thing, and a factor that has always been vitally important for us, is that we sign players who want to play for Swansea City for footballing reasons. If not, then we move on to the next target.
"It is true that I have not sat down with our manager since the last game of the season against Fulham, but that's because we have both been away on holidays at different times. It doesn't mean we haven't spoken because I've had numerous conversations with Michael over the phone and there's been no difference of opinion on our original transfer targets."

Brent Wick is a northwest native, currently living in portland oregon. a self taught artist that find inspiration in skateboarding, motorcycle trips, camping and all the critters that fill the landscape of the cascade range. he has spent various amounts of time working in many other media, but has spent the last 8 years working mostly in brush and india ink. he has recently shown at together gallery, grass hut and the goodfoot
M@ Leavitt was raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan. After earning a degree in Civil Engineering, he moved to Portland in 2006. He quickly determined that engineering was not his life's work, and left the engineering field to spend a year in residency at a nearby Zen monastery. Since then he has worked as an artist in Portland. Currently, M@ is working toward an MFA in Visual Studies at the Pacific Northwest College of Art. He say's "These tree-themed drawings are the continuation of a series of drawings I did in 2011. Each drawing begins with a broad brush stroke which I interpret as a setting that will somehow involve trees. Sometimes the stroke becomes the sky, sometimes a land mass, sometimes both. The challenge and the fun of this exercise is to work with what occurs in the initial spontaneous brush stroke, over which I have very little control. The result may be dark and serene, energetic, whimsical, whatever. I work in a wide range of media, but with all of my work I find pleasure in absorption in minute details. That is especially true with this tree work."
Michael Costello has been a professional artist for twenty years and has been residing in the Pacific Northwest for the last ten. He graduated from the Pacific Northwest College of Art with a BFA in painting in 2006. While attending PNCA he was the first recipient of the Global Studios Scholarship, sponsored by Nike, to the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art in France. Today he works out of his studio in SE Portland, primarily creating realist drawings with soft pastels. His work features cross-sections of vintage hotel and restaurant neon signage, in their current states of decay. Costello applies his work to his passion for ¬Å"the preservation of a past not so far away,¬Â he says. ¬Å"To me the neon's represent the preservation of past memories not so far away, slowly becoming less vivid yet still recognizable, rusting away in the catalogs of our minds.¬Â
When Nicholas Orr started college he began to understand why he loved art as much as he did; He could use his skills to tell stories and convey emotions for people to live in. He majored in Illustration and got his BFA in 2002. After graduating he moved to Los Angeles, California where he went on to become a freelance Graphic Designer and Artist. He spent his time fine-tuning his craft and figuring out what story he wanted to tell with it. After five years of shows and design work Nicholas decided to make another big change and moved to Portland, Oregon in 2007. He is now starting to gather up his knowledge and experience to make a new life for himself.

The therapist was absolutely lovely -friendly, welcoming, the right amount of chatty. Salon was functional and 80's style (i.e prob not decorated since). My nails were slightly filed before I had gelish polish applied to my hands and feet. Range of colours was limited the vivid red I'd selected had run out. Instead I opted for a deep raspberry - looked nice. Polish lasted for over 2 weeks (and I swam in the sea on holiday every day for one week of that time), so very pleased with its durability. I would've liked the colour to be a bit more even across my nails as this varied in places.There was a 2mm gap between my cuticles and where the polish started..This looked odd. As my nails grew, it was more noticable earlier on that the polish was growing out. Removal cost me £15. Overall it was good value with the Wahanda voucher, but results-wise it was just OK.

Re: How to deal with irritating partner?
Rupert Atkinson
I remember a course with Chiba Sensei, about 1990 or so in Wales, in the UK. He showed a technique (it was a
variant) and after awhile stopped everyone. He then asked a few seniors to demonstrate it and they all did something different. He went nuts and screamed at them. Then he showed the technique again and deja vu. I really enjoyed seeing senior teachers get a rollocking but I do not know why they could not copy what he was doing. He even said, while ridiculing them, that the white belts were trying to do what he had shown, and he had a pair demo it. He was mad as hell. Bizarre.
I saw the same from Kawahara sensei in more than one seminar in Canada. I used to watch very carefully to see what he was doing so I could at least attempt to do what he was doing, and remember on more than one occasion being "corrected" by others only to have the others rained upon from on high by Kawahara because the "corrections" were wrong..

Range DescriptionApteryx rowi is locally common in native lowland forests in a small area of coastal forest inland from Okarito, on the west coast of South Island, New Zealand (Robertson 2013). They have recently been introduced to Mana, Motuara and Blumine Islands, in the Cook Strait region. Before human settlement of New Zealand the species was widespread throughout the northern South Island and into the southern North Island, as far north as Lake Poukawa (Hawkes Bay) (Robertson 2013). The population numbered c.375 in 2012, with the only breeding population at Okarito; island populations are used as creches or are only recently established (Robertson 2013).

Greetings! Been a long time user and love the plugin, great work!
After the latest update (2.2.2) it has stopped working for me.

Hey everyone,
I had a WordPress install going strong for awhile today, then I (regretfully) logged out. Upon trying to log in again, Chrome threw me a 310: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error.
I have searched in Google and Bing for anything to try and fix this, including renaming the plugins folder temporarily. However, none of that has worked.
I opened my browser's developer tools and had it record network activity, which revealed that there was an infinite loop of requests for wp-admin after I clicked login.

From SoftAmbulance data recovery software: Recover damaged disks and lost partitions with SoftAmbulance Partition Doctor. Did you accidentally delete a file or folder, or formatted a hard disk by mistake? Did your hard drive crash so badly you cannot access it anymore? Was your file system or partition table messed up by a virus or hardware failure? Look no further! SoftAmbulance Partition Doctor will heal your hard drive, cure partition tables and boot records, restore corrupted files and repair directory structure completely automatically. Windows has a built-in tool to check and fix corrupt hard drives, and possibly restore access to damaged disks. The built-in error-checking utility can help in simple cases, but cannot help if something more severe than an unscheduled computer restart has happened. It was never designed to fix severely damaged hard drives and re-create lost directory structures after formatting a disk. SoftAmbulance Partition Doctor is designed to carefully rescue as much data as possible from seriously corrupted file systems and hard drives in dangerous conditions without requiring any specific knowledge from the user. A simple wizard will guide you through entire process of saving your work by automatically scanning your hard drives for lost or corrupted partitions, re-creating file and directory structures, and finally letting you select files and folders to recover. To ensure highest levels of safety while working with already damaged disks and file systems, SoftAmbulance Partition Doctor uses low-level sector scan. As an extra security step, SoftAmbulance Partition Doctor can create a virtual image of a hard drive being recovered, and only access the image instead of working directly with the corrupted disk. These precautions ensure highest levels of safety to your important information. SoftAmbulance Partition Doctor can automatically fix and restore files, folders, partitions and system structures such as NTFS, FAT, MFT and MBR. It supports all Windows versions.

Treatment of B-Cell Lymphomas with Monoclonal...
Yet another firm is tapping Isis for its antisense technology. In the latest deal, AstraZeneca formed an alliance with the firm for the discovery and development of novel generation antisense therapeutics against five cancer targets. The agreement includes a license to develop and commercialize ISIS-STAT3Rx, a drug Isis is currently evaluating in an early clinical trial in patients with advanced lymphomas.
This alliance aims to apply AstraZeneca's experience in developing personalized medicines to enhance the drug discovery and development process for four research programs in the oncology area and to aid in the development of ISIS-STAT3Rx for patient populations that could benefit the most from inhibition of STAT3, a protein that drives cancer growth.
Several other firms are interested in Isis' antisense technology. Just yesterday, the firm reported receiving $30 million from Biogen Idec in a deal to discover and develop antisense drugs against three undisclosed targets to treat neurological or neuromuscular disorders. Last month, Pfizer paid Isis $1.25 million in a scar treatment deal. The payment was triggered when Pfizer decided to advance EXC 001, an antisense oligonucleotide designed to interrupt the process of fibrosis by inhibiting expression of connective tissue growth factor, into a Phase II study. In addition, Isis has ongoing collaborations with Genzyme, Alnylam, and GlaxoSmithKline. Isis' modus operandi is to discover and conduct early development of new drugs and then outlicense those drugs to partners with late-stage development, commercialization, and marketing expertise.
Antisense therapies target the proteins involved in disease processes by destroying the RNA that is involved in creating these proteins. The Isis discovery platform develops specific therapies that bind to messenger RNA and inhibit the production of disease-causing proteins.

The success of LISA Pathfinder and the prospects for a space-based gravitational wave observatory.
A space-based gravitational wave observatory targeting the milliHertz frequency band has the potential to inform many areas of physics and astrophysics including the nature of gravity in the strong-field limit, the formation and growth of massive black holes and their host galaxies, and the demographics of stellar compact objects. This strong science case has led to the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission concept consistently receiving high rankings in major reviews in both the US and Europe. In 2016, the ESA-led LISA Pathfinder mission validated several key technologies for LISA and further strengthened the case for a timely implementation of LISA. In this talk, I will discuss the preliminary results from LISA Pathfinder and the outlook for a LISA-like mission in light of the successes of Pathfinder and LIGO.

Hi Ladies,
I wish I could join you in all the baby excitement :(
I had a D and C last Wednesday. I barely bleed the first five days and had no cramps. Yesterday I started bleeding and cramping. The cramps are very different than period cramps it's more like a sharp pain on my left.�
The pain killers aren't helping.
I am bleeding but nothing crazy.�
Is this pain normal????????
This has all been hard and now I have to deal with this constant sharp reminder that I lost my baby. To make it worst I feel like no one understands and I have to pretend to be strong for everyone. Ah I'm sorry I know this is probably the last thing u ladies want to read about right now but I feel so alone.
I am worried is this pain normal?

By 1st Cavalry Division Public AffairsApril 11, 2007
FORT HOOD, Texas - Soldiers who are injured downrange need many things for a successful recovery. One of those necessities is encouragement and support and the 1st Cavalry Division family is dedicated to making sure there is no shortage of that.
At least every two weeks, the 1st Cav rear command group - Col. Larry Phelps, commander, and Command Sgt. Maj. William Wallace - take a trip down to Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio to visit wounded Soldiers.
"In 1st Cav and III Corps, our Soldiers are our most important asset," Phelps said. "Our chains of command think it is critical to stay "plugged in" to these heroes who have sacrificed so much for our unit and our country, and do whatever we can to assist them in their recoveries.
"I think that personal interaction with them is a big piece of that," he added.
The command group is joined by members of the Cav's Family Readiness Groups, local church groups, members of the Association of the United States Army, 1st Cav Soldiers and many others.
Susan Green, who's husband, Col. Toby Green, is downrange with 1st Cav, explained that the FRGs come out because the young Soldiers in the hospital are like family to them.
"They're like little brothers and sisters even though I've never met them," she said. "We (spouses) put our heart and soul into our military family. It forms bonds like no other."
"I care very much about our Soldiers," explained Wendy Fil, wife of Maj. Gen. Joseph F. Fil Jr., commanding general of the Multi-National Division-Baghdad and 1st Cav. Div. "We want to give the message that First Team still cares about them."
The Cav group moves from room to room, stopping to talk with those who are willing and able to have visitors.
"You go down feeling like you're going to give something and you come away with something instead," Fil explained. "They're not griping or complaining. They're in pain, but they're asking how their buddies are."
"Every Soldier and every wounded warrior is unique, but uniformly, I feel a great sense of pride that our nation produces such heroes," Phelps said. "I am also reminded that these Soldiers are dealing with tough recoveries, and I draw my inspiration from their examples.
"If they can continue to fight o recover, I can continue to fight the battle in the rear command," he added. "I draw great strength from each of them."
Everyone brings gifts for the wounded including blankets, teddy bears and candy. But the presents and encouragement aren't just for Cav Soldiers. Visitors from the 1st Cav also stop by the rooms of other units' Soldiers as well as Marines, sailors and airmen.
"These Soldiers [service members] from throughout Multi-National Division -Baghdad are all under Maj. Gen. Fil's command downrange, and are, therefore, part the First Team family," Phelps explained. "These troopers were injured in support of MND-B. We are able to visit them and give the same sense of confidence to their many commanders downrange that these Soldiers are still part of the MND-B team."
Phelps said the BAMC visits will continue as long as he is the rear commander for 1st Cav.
"As long as there is a single trooper in these medical facilities," he stressed, "I am sure we will continue to be there for them."

Jim Peterk's World Stage is an incredible concert. First off, he's on stage for 4 hours! Bringing different talent with him, it is certainly a concert that has more variety than any single performer can offer. Saturday's performance had rock, ballads, jazz, blues and great oldies. Truly a concert not to be missed......and he will be back next year, he said. This was the 10th anniversary. Well worth the price of admission.
When Jim Peterik calls his friends for a one-night stand, the musicians who take the stage are giants of the rock world. Last year's stars included Rik Emmett of Triumph, Jimi Jamison of Survivor, Kelly Keagy of Night Ranger plus The Ides of March. Don't miss this explosive evening that will have the MAC rockin'!
