About Me
Studying the world
My name is lieu and I'm a passionate traveller who's trying to be on the road as much as possible in order to meet people from around the world to share good food while sharing great stories and experiences so we can learn from each other and we can grow together.
Im fascinated that I have met so many different people from all over and that we've all so many things in common... especially the wanderlust gene!
Working as accountnant in Germany didn't really satisfied me, so I decided to leave to find myself, explore the world, challenge myself and enjoy life how it's suppose to be!
So far, I can say that it has taught me many important lessons about myself and my needs and brought me more happiness than I could have imagined...
To my person, I'm open-minded, tolerant, easy-going and interested in each person I'm meeting.
I believe that if we approach people with openness and are genuine, they rise up to the occasion and give you their love in return.
Unfortunatly, I've a really terrible sense of direction which means it's always going to be a challenge for me when I travel by myself :) but despite that I would never want to miss the experience of getting lost in the crowd in a foreign country!
"Perhaps travel can't prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends."
Tell me your story and I will tell you mine..
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Everytime when I talk about CS I have to realised that it gave me so much energy and enabled me to meet so many beautiful people worldwide.

Attorney General Eric Holder's trip to Los Angeles last week received plenty of attention. But one detail that wasn't publicized was his visit to Omar Ibn Al Khattab Foundation, a mosque and community center near USC:

An outcast, Mon is abandoned by his friends following a lightning strike to his antlers which left them less-than-flourished. In his efforts to pursue his former self and form a new identity with even better antlers than he had before, Little Mon sets out upon his quest of all quest - meeting peculiar fellows along the way.
We believe less is more. Colour and Shape are the two, most prominent art & design fundamentals that you'll see in our game. With its silhouetted aesthetic and simple compositions, our game is arranged as such to be almost minimalistic, but maintaining aim for gorgeous graphics: being a game so hugely about shapes of colour, mood and tone, the look and FEEL is a big deal for us. In our submitted demonstration, we've tried our best to, above all, provide a great atmosphere for the game (being enhanced of course by the music of Angelo Cicero). Amid colour, as mentioned, shape plays an important role keeping complexities about our game to a good standing, without cluttering the shots in-game. Despite this, we feel we do need to spruce up gameplay a little by adding more visual (and audio) content, and here is what we have lined up:
- Collectables
As a side element of the game, collecting adorable shapes would be quintessential for all the cute in the game thus far.
- NPCs (real ones this time!)
Non-playable characters which would have dialogue to share, guiding and directing the player through the world, unraveling new mysteries and secrets otherwise not obtained!
- Player Animations (special moves, attack)
We're thinking of combat for our gameplay, as well as puzzle solving and exploration. Double Jump seems to be something all testers are lacking at the moment, and we'll add some super fancy combo attacks too.
- (Audio) Narration
Finally, (the rest is under wraps for now) narration. This would include verbal indicators and hints for levels, as well as being a little extra content.
The development of level 1 is underway, so stay tuned for gameplay footage, images or other downloadables!

Gas prices to accelerate their rise after large draw in stockpiles
Posted in:
Patrick DeHaan
on Jul 30, 2009 04:00 PM
0 Comments
May 20, 2009- U.S. gasoline prices are set to accelerate their rise today after a large draw down in supply stockpiles.
U.S. oil stockpiles contracted 2.1 million barrels, while gasoline stockpiles plummeted 4.2 million barrels, putting stocks of gasoline well-below average for this time of year.
While the U.S. is enjoying surplus crude inventory, they have been reduced by nearly 8 million barrels in just a few weeks time as demand accelerates and refiners start increasing production for the U.S. summer driving season.
This news will definitely bode poorly for consumers planning to take to the roads in numbers higher than last year as gas prices have risen 20-cents from just weeks ago, hovering at 2.335, 2-cents higher than just yesterday.
There is little good news for consumers as Sunoco and Flint Hills Resources both reported refinery fires in the U.S. in a pivotal time as refiners finish maintenance and begin raising production of summer gasoline, required by many states and cities to reduce pollution.
Gas prices will accelerate to nearly $2.50-$2.65 per gallon nationwide before a small pullback during the warmest summer months. Gas prices are then expected to rise as the peak of the hurricane season arrives in mid-August, but then falling after Labor Day as the U.S. driving season concludes.

These people have no idea what they're talking about! Smokey's is one of the best bars I've seen in town by far! Very nice, clean place, excellent food (highly exceed expectations of your typical bar menu), and outstanding service! The bartenders are not just hot, but they're super friendly and are always on top of things! This place is not what it used to be- major improvement! Live bands and the Blues Bash are rockin', great food, cold beer, good prices, friendly atmosphere, excellent service, and all around good times...... what more could you ask for?! This place definately deserves a second look.
Went to CBW to watch NCAA tourney... had a burger and FF. It was awesome, hand ground burgers and hand-cut french fries. Huge selection of beers and a bunch of Holy City drafts. I am honestly impressed. One of the patrons told me that the cheese steaks were extremely good. I know what I will be having next time... Keep up the good work
Only went in for the mussels, but they were out of this world good.
Bacon and Blue cheese with lots of bread to sop up the love.
Great food, great crowd, great live music! What more can you ask for?
Sure beats driving downtown. This place ROCKS !!!!!!!!!!!!
This is an awesome place to see bands - big stage, awesome sound and you can eat great food - wings, killer burgers, steaks - all night long. If you don't need to be by the beach, its a much better venue than the Windjammer plus its in the heart of Berkeley County! Going to see Diamondback this weekend!
We had an amazing experience at the Cocktail Club! We are new to Charleston and the bar was recommended to us by the concierge at The Charleston Place. They took great care of my family and were very gracious in remaking a cocktail that my mother found too strong (she is hard to please!) We will be back often. The Double Standard is fantastic..cant wait to try more!
Not that Urbanspoon is the end all be all but after reading Rosemary's review and positive comments about Baroni's I figured I would look them up. I am always up for a good pizza. Well, 74% approve for a restaurant with a solid third of the reviews negative is not very enticing. I looked at Evo's and 92% positive with nearly four times as many votes and out of the 37 reviews only four were negative, and two of those were about price. If you understand what Evo is doing and how much effort goes into their food you will understand why they have to charge the prices that they do. If not, I would suggest Cici's, that just means that when I have to go on the customary wait at EVO it will at least be for people who understand what they are eating and drinking and not be looking for the nearest buffet trough.
Great food, great beer, great service, consistently.
So glad we finally have a Juanita's in Mt. P. Have always loved the downtown restaurant. Went for Happy Hour and Dinner last week and it was awesome! Great food, so inexpensive and a super cool atmosphere.
Food is amazing here!!!! So good!! True Cuban Food!!
All these other fools do not know what quality food and service is about. They should stick to food joints like Hyman's and they can get an affordable plate of tasteless food and service with no personability.
Try the Honey Badger wrap! Homemade!
Quite possibly one of the coolest places I have ever been. with over 400 beers to choose from there is easily something for everyone. Either grab a beer from the cooler or toss one from off the shelf into the chiller and enjoy on premise or put a 6 pack together or grab a growler for the road. Live music on weekends, corn hole, and an all together great atmosphere. Rob, the owner, is one of the nicest people i have ever met. If you haven't been to house of brews be sure to make the trip soon.
This place really has a unique and mature environment. Service and technique are unbelievably polished, creative, and just plain fun! Classy establishment.
Concernicus411, I am so sorry to hear you had a bad experience at The CC. I am the general manager and we are fully committed to superior service and using the freshest ingredients to craft our cocktails. Please join us again, as our guest. Please bring your friend as well and allow us to provide the service and quality of which we are known for. You can reach me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com
Best bar in Charleston! Excellent service, delicious drinks, and tasty food. Will be back again and again! I'd give it more than 5 stars if I could!
On a serious note Montreaux is awesome.. My husband and I and my friends throroughly enjoy ourselves each and every time we go there..The staff is friendly and courteous and want to make sure your enjoying yourself ..Its not the prettiest place in the world..its not a downtown charleston bar..but its homey and down to earth and you cant beat the prices on drinks or entertainment....I have consistently enjoyed myself each and every time I go there...Montreaux You guys rock...Danielle R. xoxo
great wings, perfect staff, awsome service, fun happy hour drinks and food
Love the atmosphere and ambiance - sophisticated and elitist while still offering a totally chill environment. Music is awesome and love to sit back and enjoy a hookah on occasion. Easily my favorite hang out in all of Charleston. Torch knows how to do things right!

As a personal note, Mellow Mushroom rocks! I love their food. However, comparing a Brixx pizza to a Mellow Mushroom pizza is ridiculous. May as well compare Thai food to Japanese. They're both delicious! But not remotely comparable.

Israelis, unlike us repressed Brits, are usually quite happy to discuss their voting plans.
Throughout the day yesterday I got updates from one of my friends who was torn between Meretz, as the best fit in terms of social policy and peace manifesto, and Kadima as the best option to lead a centrist coalition in government. In the end, Meretz won out (but still only managed a tragic four seats).
In Israel, it's all about the strategic vote. That's why a Meretz voter considers voting Kadima (and doubtless many others actually did) and why Yitzhak Rabin's son stood up to endorse Bibi Netanyahu - while admitting he was still going to vote Labour.
And this is another reason why electoral reform is so badly needed. The current system amounts to a giant political chess game - fun for journalists and commentators, but bad for building faith in the system. People end up voting for parties they do not support ideologically, which is hardly a good good basis for public trust in government.

Skip to comments.Pride and Embarrassment for Mixed-Sex Unit after Firefight
Posted on 09/24/2012 4:19:45 AM PDT by Eleutheria5
The IDF's mixed-sex Caracal unit apparently has reasons for both pride and embarrassment following the firefight on the border with Egypt that left one soldier and three terrorists dead.
The pride is due to the fact that one of the unit's female fighters, a markswoman identified only by the initial S., took part in the assault on the terrorists and shot one of them to death. The embarrassment is due to reports that another female combat soldier cowered behind a bush for over an hour, causing fear that she had been abducted.
S. has been feted by the media, which has been enamored with the IDF's women-in-combat program for more than a decade.
On Sunday, however, reports from the IDF's initial inquiry into the firefight revealed that another female soldier from Caracal behaved in a way that could cast doubt on the entire logic behind the creation of mixed-sex units.
The soldier, who serves in Caracal's reconnaissance unit, was near the Artillery Corps force that came under fire when the incident began. The rest of her unit was not far away at the time. She radioed to her unit that the force had come under fire, but then proceeded to hide behind a Hummer vehicle's tire, with her weapon's safety catch still on. She proceeded from there to a bush, where she hid for over an hour. At no point did she open fire at the terrorists, according to the initial details from the investigation. .....

I'm not sure I could even carry all the stuff that men in combat are required to carry.
I seem to remember much the same thing happening to men in our Civil War. I think someone may have even written a story about it. "The Red Badge of Courage" or something like that.
MK Yaakov Katz has told the Knesset that military research shows female soldiers' health including reproductive health is greatly endangered by service in combat units.
shades of Jessica Lynch...at least she didn't get a Bronze Star for hiding...
The U.S. Army is having medical problems with women in combat zones. Because of the poor hygiene, the women are more prone to urinary infections and yeast infections. The basic anatomical differences between men and women is the problem. I DO NOT question the capabilities of women to perform technical or tactical task in combat. However, I question if their presence is really necessary? Unlike the Israelis where their literary are not enough men, that is not the case in this country. Also, and this is a failing of men, the women are very subject to sexual assault by our own male personnel. This has been the source of PTSD in women that men seldom have to deal with because of the gender differences. With our society being oversexualized, it is no wonder these problems are occuring.
Women have become an essential part of the military. However, I am not sure that there use in forward areas in warranted. Also, a basic respect for women (as females to be protected) needs to be incalcated in the male soldiers to curb the sexual abuse. This goes against the concept of women being no different than men. We have got to stop fighting the nature of human gender differences.
Even if men would respect their co-troops, the enemy will not. During wars against Syria, female IDF used to commit suicide rather than be captured. Rape? That's for normal people. Fighting some of these beasts, mutilation is just where they start.
I would like to think that this is freakishly rare. Do you have any stats on this crime?
I wish I had recorded it.
Yes, no bronze star for hiding or for surrendering. But, we still respect the decision a person makes to join the military. People just don't know how they are going to react in a live combat situation, even with training (and without training the vast majority will break and run). Besides, sometimes the prudent thing is to hide or to surrender.
There is one key difference here..Israel, the entire country, is the front line in this war. You really can't keep women out of combat over there...it comes to them.
Called her Mother during the firefight!
Get her outta there.
Robert A. Heinlein
"The Pragmatics of Patriotism" (1973)
Thanks..nice job...
Military awards have become increasingly extravagant since WW II. It was common to see a US sailor who served in combat for the entire WW II with three or four ribbons. Today, a US serviceperson who has served for ten years and never been in a war zone can have fifteen or more. Flying recon in Vietnam required 300 hours to earn one Air Medal. Today tacair gets an Air Medal for each flight. I suspect the Bronze Star has seen the same inflation.
The democratic left, enemies of the US Constitution, use this issue to break the will of the American people to fight, really fight in a time of war. The only reason women are not subject to a draft is because they are (were) not allowed in combat. That is no longer the case, so imagine a future war requiring a draft. Would we fight it knowing little Susie who baby sits your kids will likely be drafted and millions more like her? I doubt it.
Oh, I got his point: Israel is constantly under attack from Muslim neighbors, and Muslims would like to kill every Israeli man, woman, and child.
I just disagree with his conclusion: It is therefore necessary for all Israeli women to become combat soldiers.
Stats exist, and they're bad enough, but even worse are the unreported assaults.
It's a problem. "No" means "no," and people who don't understand that have a major underlying problem even if they never get caught or reported.
Let's be fair, however — the military deals with the problem much better than most institutions. Put lots of 18-to-25-year-olds together in a high-stress environment, create a 10-to-1 male-female ratio, and you're going to have a certain amount of problems.
Perhaps we need to review a little more history. The IDF does NOT want women in combat roles. After the 1948 war an internal study concluded there were too many problems with their deployment and women were excluded from combat for decades.
Left wing politicians in the Knesset have forced the IDF to add women to combat units. They are still under pressure to pick up the pace of change, and have faced charges of dragging their feet for not doing so.
Very true.
Besides, sometimes the prudent thing is to hide
or to surrender.
Not when you're dealing with hajis.
>>Is it ever prudent to surrender?
You sort of concede that it sometimes is, by saying not when dealing with hajis.
Perhaps by using "hajis" you mean Al Qaida, a transnational organization that has not signed the Geneva Accords and which has not conducted itself in accordance with Geneva so as to not warrant a presumption of acceptance. Clearly, when dealing with such an entity, the scales of prudence are inclined against surrender.
The example of Masada stands as a monument that there are indeed times when you would choose suicide over surrender.
Me neither Holly. Me neither.
If you're dealing with a professional military, it might be prudent to surrender. When you're dealing with Islamic crazies, you'll be better off going down fighting. They'll torture and murder you anyway, it's just a matter of how long they want to hang on to you before they do.
IIRC, it happened fairly frequently up through WWII. Marksmanship training changed afterwards and made people more comfortable returning fire.
Ummm... ISREAL is the FRONT. There is your break.
I suspect the Bronze Star has seen the same inflation....In VN, I feel the Bronze was given to almost anybody anywhere near an explosion, or shots fired. NOT the Combat Bronze, mind you. I got one and at Commander's Call was called up front to receive it. I was dumbfounded and said "What for?" It was not taken humorously by the officers. A cook's assistant got one the same ceremony for taking turkey up to a fire base on Thanksgiving. He told us at the beer bash (after) he never saw, heard or was aware there was NVA on that road. It was all political for the papers back home.
"...and which has not conducted itself in accordance with Geneva so as to not warrant a presumption of acceptance."
I don't believe American soldiers have ever faced an enemy that conducted itself in accordance with Geneva, with the possible exception of NAZI Germany. Al-queda is no different from a long list of others in that respect.
I knew a guy in Germany whose father was an infantry company commander during the Soviet siege of Berlin in 1945.
The Germans re-captured a slaughterhouse in East Berlin from a Russian women's infantry brigade.
The women had hung their German prisoners from the meat hooks...alive.
His comment: "Women can make fine infantry. You just have to have the right women".

NEW YORK — The Metropolitan Transportation Authority is observing the 75th anniversary of the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge, which opened to traffic on April 29, the day before the start of the 1939-40 World's Fair in Flushing Meadows.
The bridge, which cost $19.6 million, was built in 23 months, against the deadline of the World's Fair opening. At the time, its 2,300-foot main suspension span was the fourth longest in the world. It was used by 6.3 million vehicles in its first full year of operation – and by 39.6 million last year – or roughly 109,000 on an average weekday.
The MTA Bridges and Tunnels has spent $737 million on capital improvements to the bridge since 1992 to conform to modern standards and maintain it in a state of good repair.
The anniversary celebration will include historic exhibits and talks about the bridge's design and history in Queens and the Bronx. Details are posted at mta.info.

Skip to comments.Time to Play FIND THE CAT
Posted on 02/15/2012 1:14:14 AM PST by Reaganite Republican
Got this in an email yesterday. Stupid.
found him!
upper left,light colored
yellow tabby
I found two of them in about two minutes.
I found a white with grey spots... WHAT yellow tabby?
yup, I just found him also.
I don't see the cat, but our president is easy to spot.
White with black spots over a tire. Less than a minute.
Looks like my old apartment.
Got it. Middle left. Starter - looks like 0R9271 for a D3B.
It's a female.
yep, middle left next to the square
"she goes to the store for a couple of things and can't pass up the thrift shop"
I found the black and white kitty but where is the other one?!
The other one was probably a piece of stuff that looks like a sitting kitten to me. It is above the top left of the large ribbed item below and a little to the left of swamp's picture insertion. It has a little blue thing under it and directly above and slightly behind the large ribbed item.
...and maybe imagination helps.
Got it in 5 seconds.
This is what the USA produces today.
Looks like the pile of trash they hauled out of Zucotti Park.
It didn't take me long to find it. But I have several cats. :)

I can't find any info on this anywhere so I hope someone can help me here. I have set up a new domain name and hosting account. I have installed WordPress in the root directory. I am starting to create a CMS website but would prefer that my work be hidden from view until I am ready to go live.
I have created temporary index.html page, sort of a "Coming Soon" message that I would prefer visitors to the site see but putting that in the root folder next to index.php sort screwed things up (spinning its wheels then a timeout) so I removed it.
Is there an easy way to make my site hidden until I choose to go live?

The Australian Ballet's world premiere of Alexei Ratmansky's Cinderella
Gracia Haby
Bodyclock: Alexei Ratmansky's Surrealist Cinderella, for Fjord Review
October 2013
Choreography: Alexei Ratmansky
Music: Sergei Prokofiev
Costume and set design: Jérôme Kaplan
Lighting design: Rachel Burke
Projection design: Wendall K. Harrington
State Theatre, Arts Centre Melbourne
Friday 20th September 2013
Tuesday 24th September 2013
Tick, tock. Tick, tock. Sergei Prokofiev's beautifully eerie time keeping score. Tick, tock. Tick, tock. A row of conical hedges transform with one rotation into metronomes. Tick, tock. Tick, tock. A dancer's leg strikes twelve, over and over. Tick, tock. Tick, tock. A leg can swing like a pendulum, oscillating back and forth from a central point. A body has become a clock, proving Salvador Dali true: "every portrait can be transformed into living room furniture"[i], and thus Mae West's lips become a sofa on which to sit. The body can become an object and an object can become a body. Time and transformation are the threads that bind this new production of The Australian Ballet's Cinderella together. True to the score, Alexei Ratmansky's choreography coupled with Jérôme Kaplan's costume and set design revels in this glorious sense of time being measured, and the optical illusion of surrealism whose transformative powers delight in catching you in their illusion, thus making this fairytale complete.
The passing of time, it is in the orbit of the planets that spin clockwise and anticlockwise. There flies Mars, Neptune, and Venus! It is in the apparent suspension of time that sees dancers appear weightless. Indeed, as the Celestial Bodies fly Cinderella through the solar system, she appears to defy gravity. So at ease, her suspended form calls to mind Dali's The Sleep (1937). The very marking of time, it is the chase the orchestra perform with alacrity and apparent delight. One moment an almost demonic gallop, the next a lyrical sweep to rival the swirl of costume. It is a score perhaps not as well known as Romeo and Juliet (but it should be) and it is one that has a beautiful quality of measuring, keeping, and altering time from the moment it commences. You begin to almost see the notes leaping up from the orchestra pit and taking over the theatre. Ratmansky's Cinderella evokes the overwhelming sensation that this is what ballet sounds like and what Prokofiev's music looks like.
Cinderella is a beautiful collision of opposites. The grotesque plays opposite the romance of the fairytale with the happy ending we are assured of from the outset, with or without the transportation conjuring feats performed by mice and pumpkins. There can be little doubt that to bite into one of the stepsisters or the stepmother would be fatal: "sugary on the outside and venomous inside."[ii] Comedy plays opposite heartache, and real time plays opposite suspended time. It combines the timeless with the ephemeral, and the classic with the modern with all the ease of a Georgio de Chirico painting. With its ambiguous spatiality and the power to free objects from their normal contexts, the surrealist's landscape of the unknown seems an ideal landscape in which to place Cinderella. If you are going to explore the dream, longing (both romantic and familial), and by that reasoning, the fairytale, who better to have as guide than the surrealists? Celebrating the laws of chance and a sense of different layers has the effect of hand in glove that one wonders why you've not earlier seen Cinderella in surreal setting such as this. From René Magritte we have the frame within a frame within a frame of the staging that works so cleverly to alter the audience's sense of space and time. And we also have the suggestion of conflict between the hidden and the visible that runs through much of Magritte's work echoed at the close of act II when the Prince cannot 'see' Cinderella for her rags. There but not there, I doubt I have ever been more moved by an act's close, such is this production's understanding of the power of drama and story telling. The story told through lengthy mime—gone. In its place, a body to speak, and speak it does in the lead up to midnight replete with its twelve chimes. In hearing the orchestra play the Waltz-Coda at the end of act II, I am generally confused as to just who is moving: the characters on stage or the whole theatre? Come Midnight hedges-cum-metronomes glide, encircle and ensnare, and Cinderella and the Prince run circles, and the audience, too—we are moving aren't we? I am reminded of Prokofiev's own words in describing the sense of confused, fused fantastical movement when at a young age he saw Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty at the Bolshoi Theatre: "...but when they, that is the cast in Sleeping Beauty, where moving along in a boat whilst the stage set moved toward them, your gaze, after having being glued to the spectacle for a time, involuntarily shifted and you looked around and it seemed that the theatre was also moving until finally you couldn't tell whether it was the stage or the theatre or your own head that was moving."[iii]
In Act III, as the Prince searches and almost courts temptation as much as he is tempted, there in the projections of Wendall K. Harrington, a nod to de Chirico's The Uncertainty of the Poet (1913) with its train passing in the distance, and a conversation with cubism occurring in the foreground. The anguish and disquiet of a de Chirico 'backdrop' without the painterly strokes of the original source, seeks to enhance what the music describes. Having explored the cosmos, the Magritte frame within a frame, and danced between columns of malachite that give the impression of reaching up, up, up to the heavens and echo those of St. Isaacs in St. Petersburg, Russia, spatial depth is now flattened. This is no naturalistic view. We are covering vast distances in but a blink of the eye, as befits a fairytale, slipper in hand. At the intersection between conscious and unconscious, we are, as André Breton described, 'drawing a spark' from the contact of "two widely separate realities without departing from the realm of our experience."[iv] Alongside its pure classicism and movement as narrative vehicle, this is a Cinderella that enjoys telling its story through altered proportions and sensory distortion. I was lucky enough to see this performance twice, with two different casts and from two different positions in the State Theatre. Both times proved a sensory delight, and I particularly liked that each offered something different, be it the cast or my seat. From the balcony, the staging and lighting held me transfixed, and I marvelled at the muted jewel of a palette, the exaggerated forms, whether wigged hair or posterior, and the overall inviting flow.
Together Madeleine Eastoe and Kevin Jackson (Friday 20th), and Lana Jones and Daniel Gaudiello (Tuesday 24th) gave such the impression of floating that it is easier to believe them paper pieces of a Max Ernst collage. With a cosmos to soar through, the pull of a love story to traverse, the tick, tock of the clock, "we are all at the mercy of the dream, and we owe it to ourselves to submit to its power when awake."[v] (Only next time, can I sport an adapted surrealistic Elsa Schiaparelli Shoe Hat too?)

Davis Merritt's article Hidden price of nullification: forfeited rights is another example of fantasy instead of reality.
Many in the media keep repeating an inaccurate narrative about nullification. Are they truly that ignorant of history, or they have been forced fed so much that it has evolved into pseudo reality?
Merritt spends the first three paragraphs of his article recounting the dark history of the American South during the 1950s and 1960s. He pushes the emotional gas peddle harder (instead of the logical brake) when bringing the nostalgia of last weeks remembrance of Dr. Martin Luther King's classic speech. He writes:
The 50-year anniversary last week of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech also marked a half-century since the idea of state nullification of federal laws had any credence at all. But the irony of that historical juxtaposition is lost on a new generation of nullification enthusiasts in state legislatures.
Interesting that Merritt conveniently forgets one of Dr. King's most famous quotes, "One has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws." Merritt apparently has never read Thomas Jefferson who also wrote, "If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so."Details
Cato Institute chairman Robert Levy's recent article, "The Limits of Nullification" is nothing less than an amalgamation of revisionist history covered in judicial fairy dust. His assertions are premised upon a flawed understanding of certain fundamental principles and constitutional history. Levy conveniently ignores them and, consequently, drawn inaccurate conclusions.
Let's dissect this piece by piece.
Levy implies the Constitution was ratified by the people acting in their aggregate political capacity – a single unitary body politic. In fact, many people believe this falsehood because they rely on the words "We the People of the United States" in the Preamble. The initial drafts of the Constitution named each and every state. They said, We the people of Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, etc. But, Article VII of the Constitution states, "The Ratification of the Conventions of nine States, shall be sufficient for the Establishment of this Constitution between the States so ratifying the Same".
Each state is independent, free, and sovereign. The ratification happened within each State by the people acting in their highest political capacity. Each state voted up or down on the ratification. There was no popular vote across all thirteen states. There was no majority of people (50%, 75%, or 95%) of the people that could ratify the Constitution. The people of each free, independent, and sovereign State ratified the Constitution independent form every other state.Details
Did you know there was a strong and vocal secession movement in the north prior to the Civil War?
Most people don't. That bit of history pretty much disappeared down the Orwellian memory hole long ago.
In fact, radical abolitionists did advance the idea of secession. They argued that non-slave states simply could not remain associated with those allowing such a vile and immoral institution.
Slavery was so contentious, Congress passed a Gag Rule in 1836. All petitions relating to slavery were tabled without referring them to a committee, printing them or even discussing them. Essentially, Congress swept the issue under the rug.Details

One of the biggest criticisms of nullification is that it was asserted for the purpose of perpetuating slavery. This is a complete misrepresentation of history. The record is absolutely clear on this issue. Frustration of the federal Fugitive Slave Act was accomplished by nullification efforts all over the North, and because of the success of…Details
Constitutional scholar Robert Natelson discusses the historical background of the 17th Amendment, allowing for direct election of U.S. Senators. He spoke January 14 at Liberty On the Rocks, Flatirons.
There is no easier way for tyranny to take hold than for a People to remain silent when they know, or should know, what their rights are. There is no easier way for a government to usurp the natural rights of a People to govern themselves than for them to stand by and let that government legislate when it has no authority to do so.
The early colonists certainly didn't miss an opportunity to stand up for their rights. In fact, the Sons of Liberty formed (much like today's Tea Party and Tenth Amendment Center) to point out where Britain was violating their rights and to help organize opposition and protest. Samuel Adams, the leader of the Sons of Liberty in Boston, wrote the following in 1769 with these words:
REVOLVING time hath brought about another anniversary of the repeal of the odious Stamp Act,—an act framed to divest us of our liberties and to bring us to slavery, poverty, and misery. The resolute stand made by the Sons of Liberty against the detestable policy had more effect in bringing on the repeal than any conviction in the Parliament of Great Britain of the injustice and iniquity of the act . It was repealed from principles of convenience to Old England, and accompanied with a declaration of their right to tax us; and since, the same Parliament have passed acts which, if obeyed in the Colonies, will be equally fatal. Although the people of Great Britain be only fellow-subjects, they have of late assumed a power to compel us to buy at their market such things as we want of European produce and manufacture; and, at the same time, have taxed many of the articles for the express purpose of a revenue; and, for the collection of the duties, have sent fleets, armies, commissioners, guard acostas, judges of admiralty, and a host of petty officers, whose insolence and rapacity are become intolerable. Our cities are garrisoned; the peace and order which heretofore dignified our streets are exchanged for the horrid blasphemies and outrages of soldiers; our trade is obstructed ; our vessels and cargoes, the effects of industry, violently seized; and, in a word, every species of injustice that a wicked and debauched Ministry could invent is now practiced against the most sober, industrious, and loyal people that ever lived in society. The joint supplications of all the Colonies have been rejected; and letters and mandates, in terms of the highest affront and indignity, have been transmitted from little and insignificant servants of the Crown to his Majesty's grand and august sovereignties in America.
The Constitution. Every issue, every time. No exceptions, no excuses.

My site is built with a child theme of Superhero, and I'm trying to use some images as dividers between sections on my page, much like in this site. As you can see the thin images leave no space at the edge of the container, giving the impression of dividing the main container into segments - this is the effect I want to achieve, but don't know how.
I could remove all padding from the container (and the subsequent images) but this will affect the design of the site drastically. If anyone has a cleaner way around this I'd love to know!
Thanks in advance.

The academic community is poorer for the passing of Caesar and Eversley
Dear Editor,
I wish to convey my condolences to the family and friends of the late John Caesar, Senior Lecturer, University of Guyana who passed away recently. The academic community, in particular the Natural Sciences Faculty, is certainly poorer for his passing as he was known to be a very dedicated and committed academic and someone who pursued his task with passion and diligence.
Even though not Guyanese by birth, he took an active interest in the country's development and served on a number of boards and committees, including the Guyana Forestry Commission where he served as Chairman up to the time of his death.
I happen to know him at a personal level when I served as a member of the University Council and on the Appointments Committee some years ago. I was always impressed with his modesty and the unassuming manner in which he conducted himself and his sense of loyalty and commitment not only to the University of Guyana but to the country as a whole.
May I also express my condolences to the relatives and friends of the late Professor Calvin Eversley who also passed away after a brief illness. Like the late John Caesar, he also served the university community, in particular the Law Faculty with great commitment and dedication.
Yours faithfully,
Hydar Ally

The 25-year-old Italian becomes the latest man to accept compatriot Paolo Di Canio's offer of employment on Wearside as the manager moved to replace the departed Simon Mignolet. Mannone, who joined Arsenal from Atalanta as a 17-year-old, has signed a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee, understood to be around £2million.
However, having made just 26 senior appearances in eight years with the Gunners, the former Italy Under-21 international wants regular football, and that means a battle with Republic of Ireland international Westwood. He told the club's official website: "Of course, every player knows they have competition."
Mannone added: "We live in a world of competition. I will work and do my best to be in the first eleven, and then the manager will decide. All I can do is try to show what I am capable of."
Both men have big boots to fill with Belgium international Mignolet having earned a £9million move to Liverpool with consistently excellent performances during his time at the Stadium of Light.
Westwood is desperate to regain his international place with Ireland boss Giovanni Trapattoni having turned to Millwall's David Forde because of his lack of club football, and that will provide him with an added incentive to make the most of Mignolet's departure.
However, Mannone is viewing his arrival on Wearside as a chance to fulfil the potential which persuaded Arsene Wenger to take him to north London, and he is confident Sunderland can give him the platform to do just that.
He said: "The potential [of the club] is incredible. I have come from a big club but to be honest, I don't see any difference in the facilities. From what I can see on my first day, they are brilliant. To have good facilities where you can work and improve is something every club wants to achieve.
"The base is there and I am really happy to be here. I waited a long time for an opportunity like Sunderland, and for me it is a great one. I'm very excited. I am here to work hard and to show what I can do."
Mannone follows Valentin Roberge, Modibo Diakite, Cabral, David Moberg Karlsson and Duncan Watmore into the club with the Black Cats' summer recruitment drive showing little sign of abating.

One of the reasons I created this new project is because my changes have broken a few features and I didn't know that this would fit the requirements of YXA. In addition, it was ok for ErlyDB's needs if the driver went back to "beta" version, but it probably wouldn't be ok for a mature product like YXA. Anyway, if you would like to roll these changes into the YXA source repository, I would support it. Let me know. Best regards, Yariv
