UPDATE: Sterne Agee Initiates Michael Kors at Neutral Rating, Challenges Still from Younger Competitors
In a report published Monday, Sterne Agee initiated coverage on Michael Kors Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: KORS) with a Neutral rating and $63.00 price target.
Sterne Agee noted, "While we acknowledge that macro pressures are currently impacting top-line results (at the same time margins are peaking and compares get tough), we still feel that the group is set up favorably from here, as: 1) the group has underperformed YTD (+2% vs. SPX +5%) and multiples have come down, 2) Street estimates have been reset lower (while most stocks are going up on bad news) as managements lay out conservative initial plans for 2013, 3) inventories are in solid shape, 4) this is seasonally the best time to own retail stocks (Mar/Apr best months historically) and 5) near-term weakness could potentially snap as refund checks hit the consumer's wallet and the weather potentially turns warmer (driving pent-up demand)."
Michael Kors Holdings Ltd. closed on Friday at $59.23.

A journey into the Globe-News archives revealed that Angel Williams' 54.97-second effort in the 400 meters Saturday made her the second-fastest high school female quarter miler in Panhandle-area history.
Williams won her third consecutive state title in the 400 and smashed the Class 1A state meet record of 56.2 at the UIL meet in Austin.
With her 54.97, which for Globe-News records will be rounded up and recorded as 55.0, Williams trails only Merry Johnson among area quarter milers. Johnson, the former Canyon sprinter, owns the all-time area record at 53.9 set in 1977 at 440 yards and converted to 400 meters.
Williams had been third on the quarter miler list at 55.8, trailing Johnson and former Spearman sprinter Heather Murrell, whose best was 55.4.
Williams easily was the most dominating Panhandle-area athlete at this year's state meet. She also was among the most dominating on the statewide level.
In the 100 hurdles - an event in which records usually are broken by a few one-hundredths of a second - Williams' 14.27 beat the old standard by 43 one- hundredths of a second. In the 400, she took 1.2 seconds off the old record.
There were other noteworthy performances from area athletes at state, including:
Most Dominating: Angel Williams, Clarendon.
Most Poise: Lauren Simpson, Canyon. Being a freshman and a first-year 800-meter runner, Simpson found herself trailing for the first time this year halfway through the 3A girls two-lap race. But while two other runners went out too fast during the first lap, Simpson calmly stayed on pace.
As a result, she sprinted past her last challenger with 100 meters remaining and won by a 1.3-second margin.
Most Gutsy: Erin Charest, Hereford. Medaling in the 4A girls 800 was a nice accomplishment. Coming back 85 minutes later and medaling in the 400 put Charest in a unique class. She also ran personal-best times of 2 minutes, 16.92 seconds and 56.32.
Most Surprising: Melissa Lesly, Spearman. All the slender sophomore wanted to do at state was run a 59 in the 2A girls 400 - even though she had been timed in 58.3 earlier this year. But Lesly ran aggressively in the opening 200 meters and finished second in 57.42. Next year, she'll have to set her goal a little higher ... or lower, since we're talking times.
Best Peak Performance: Brett Shepherd, Canyon. The junior lowered his 2004 best in the 3A boys 3200 by 24 seconds while finishing second. He also lowered his 2004 best in the 1600 by six seconds while running fourth.
Most Disappointed (Field Event): Emmanuel Yarbrough, Tulia. The senior won the 3A boys triple jump last year, going 47 feet, 412 inches. This year, he jumped three feet less and finished fifth.
Most Disappointed (Running Event): David Phares, Olton. After finishing fourth and fifth in the 2A boys 100 and 200, respectively, last year as a sophomore, bigger things were expected this year. Instead, Phares finished sixth in the 100 and was disqualified in the 200.
Best Worst-Looking Performance: Auston English, Canadian. If the junior had sound mechanics in throwing the shot put, he might throw 56 or 57 feet. Still, his unrefined throwing motion and raw strength was good for 54-4 and a silver medal in the 2A boys shot put.
Best Lonely Performance: Kita Ledbetter, Shamrock. After running at state with three teammates on two relays the last two years, helping the Lady Irish win the state team title each year, the senior qualified alone in a single event this time. She made it count, winning the 1A girls long jump in a personal best 18-0.
Most Forgotten Runnerup: Jeremy Hibbler, Amarillo High. His silver medal and clearance of 6-8 in the 5A boys high jump was a testament to his competitiveness. However, Hibbler was all but forgotten - except to local followers - after event winner Scott Sellers of Katy Cinco Ranch cleared 7-4 to break the 5A record.
Most Potential Fulfilled: The Clarendon girls team, which consisted of Angel Williams and Equilla Weatherton. They entered state with a potential to score 48 points, and they scored 48, finishing second in the team standings by two points behind Granger.
Brightest Future: Area girls 1600 relay teams. Class 3A runner-up Canyon will return its foursome intact for next year. Sunray, fourth in 1A this year, also returns its entire foursome. So does Amarillo High, which ran 3:54.5 this year; Hereford, which ran 3:58.4; and Spearman, which finished fourth at its 2A regional meet.

CINCINNATI -- Finally in the end zone after his second long interception return, Antrel Rolle didn't know what to do next. The Arizona Cardinals cornerback had never done anything like it in the NFL.
A cartwheel, back-flip and flop sufficed for his impromptu celebration.
Rolle scored on interception returns of 55 and 54 yards Sunday -- and had another interception return wiped out by penalty -- in a 35-27 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals that got the Cardinals back to .500 and kept them in the NFC West race.
No one relished it more than Rolle, a first-round draft pick in 2005 who had struggled to stay healthy and make plays.
"It just goes to show that character is your biggest asset," said Rolle, who had two career interceptions coming into the game. "I never pouted, never ranted and raved, never became a cancer to this team."
On Sunday, he became its playmaker.
Rolle finished off the game with his third interception, returning Carson Palmer's pass 71 yards for an apparent touchdown. The score was nullified by a penalty on Antonio Smith for taking Palmer down during the return, an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
Rolle did a chest dive in the end zone anyway, finishing off his amazing day.
"I never had a game like he did, not even in high school," cornerback Eric Green said. "I'm so happy for him."
After a three-game fade, Arizona (5-5) has rebounded by winning two in a row, matching its win total for each of the past two seasons. The latest showed off its young cornerback's athleticism and its 36-year-old quarterback's improvisation.
Rolle, the second cornerback taken in the 2005 draft behind Pacman Jones, became the first player to return two interceptions for touchdowns against the Bengals (3-7), who made plenty of big plays but couldn't overcome Palmer's career-high four interceptions.
"It feels terrible, horrible," Palmer said. "I felt like I let the team and the coaches and the organization and the fans down. When you give up four interceptions and 14 points, it makes it almost impossible to win."
Rolle's 55-yard return put the Cardinals ahead 10-7 late in the first quarter. With Cincinnati rallying late in the third, Palmer threw another one to Rolle, who ran 54 yards untouched and showed off his gymnastic moves, drawing a flag for excessive celebration.
At that point, the Cardinals were in the mood to party. They had overcome Palmer's two long touchdown passes and DeDe Dorsey's blocked punt return for another score. And they had done it with flair.
Even Kurt Warner, playing despite a torn ligament in his non-throwing elbow, found a way to amaze. He went 16-of-28 for 211 yards and two touchdowns, making one of the completions with his injured arm.
Warner's only other career start against the Bengals was perfect. He threw for three touchdowns and had a perfect passer rating of 158.3 while leading the Rams to a 38-10 victory in Cincinnati in 1999.
Instead of perfect, this one was mesmerizing.
He turned his wounded arm into a left-handed complement, completing a short heave to tight end Leonard Pope that kept a touchdown drive going. Overall, he proved he has something left in his arm -- both arms, in fact.
"It's good to be lucky sometimes," Warner said. "Sometimes it's not pretty. Sometimes it's not how you draw it up. But you've got to do it."
Palmer had a rough time against a defense that hadn't allowed a 300-yard passer this season, going 37-of-52 for 329 yards with two touchdowns and those four decisive interceptions.
Last week, the Cardinals defense held Detroit to minus-18 yards rushing in a 31-21 win. This time, it took advantage of a quarterback who was the Pro Bowl's MVP and his down-and-out team.
"It feels bad," coach Marvin Lewis said. "It should hurt, and it hurts."
Arizona's receivers more than held their own. Anquan Boldin topped 5,000 yards receiving in his 63rd game, matching Torry Holt as the fifth-fastest to reach the mark. Boldin had four catches for 71 yards, including a touchdown.
Larry Fitzgerald had eight catches for 93 yards and another touchdown. He reached the 4,000-yard career mark.
- Rolle is the fifth Cardinals player to return a pair of interceptions for touchdowns in the same game, the first since Robert Massey in 1992.
- The Cardinals were missing Pro Bowl safety Adrian Wilson, who was inactive with a heel injury.
- The Bengals hadn't blocked a punt since 1995. Dorsey was the first to score off a blocked punt since Barney Bussey in 1989.
- T.J. Houshmandzadeh caught his 11th touchdown pass. He has a TD in every game except one. He left the game in the fourth quarter with an unspecified hip injury.
- Chris Henry caught his first touchdown pass since returning from his eight-game suspension.
- Shayne Graham, who kicked seven field goals in a 21-7 win over Baltimore last week, had two more on Sunday, extending his club-record streak to 21 in a row.

Fantastic 2 night stay
Stayed in room 'george and dragon' which was in the annex building.
It was clean and spacious and gave us two very peaceful nights sleep. The setting of the hotel is fantastic being next to the canal, set in beautiful grounds away from the main road. Parking was easy in the large adjacent car park. The bar and restaurant were busy but the owner Peter and his staff were very friendly could not do enough to make our stay enjoyable. We ate in the restaurant and the food was excellent and cooked to perfection. Highly recommended and are already planning to return in the summer.

Noise from rooms above
The only issue we had with the accommodation was the noise from the room above.
We could hear every footstep the guests above took and also their voices which was particularly disturbing at 3am. If we stayed at this hotel again I would definitely be requesting and upstairs room. The sound proofing of the ground floor rooms definitely requires improving.

lovley place if you get the right deal
Two night stay
Ideally located for a visit to Chester.
Staff were very friendly and the hotel has a pleasant welcoming atmosphere. Our bedroom was adequate. The bed was comfortable and the room clean. We had to ask for a bedside light and there was only one chair in a double room. Unfortunately there was a water pump above our room that came on intermittently day and night which we found loud and prevented us sleeping. It came on around 4am one night for about an hour. The bathroom was clean if old fashioned.

Overnight at Innkeepers Lodge
Staff generally pleasant and welcoming - Accommodation good / Nice Big Towel - Continental Breakfast could have been better - toaster needed replacing only toasted in middle.

Ideal for a quick stopover
Spent a couple of days here, visiting relatives in Wales.
We stayed in the annexe and whilst the bedroom was a little tired, was more than adequate with a a large, clean modern bathroom. The staff were all great, breakfast was very good with the additional supplement for a cooked breakfast well worth the small extra charge. Food in the Inn it'll was very good and reasonably priced can with good beer too. Very well situated for getting into Chester or linking up with the main road, burn dar enough out of the way to be quiet.

Lovely stay
Clean and pleasant stay.
Friendly welcome. Liked the owner a lot, seemed friendly and efficient. Real fires and nice decor in pub. Pleasant gardens and ample car parking. Gold star to the owner, nicely thought out. I'm not one at all for staying at pubs generally - we stayed in a room above the pub and no problems. Would return.
Continental breakfast rated 3 because the pastries seemed a little stale and straight from fridge. No microwave oven to warm them up a bit. Evening meal food was good. Fabulous location next to the canal. Lovely leg stretch to walk off dinner. Not far from the park & ride in to Chester. Perplexed by the fact there are 13 light bulbs in in the bedroom. Disappointed only 12 worked!!

The Jakarta Post
Rain did not stop visitors to the World Royal Heritage Festival at the National Monument (Monas) square on Sunday from cheering on the floats of each participant in the festival.
The decorated horse-drawn carriage - Bala Krama Jayakarta - carrying Governor Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo and his deputy Basuki 'Ahok' Tjahaja Purnama was the highlight of the parade that circled Monas square, along with 169 representatives of royals throughout the country as well as 11 royals from overseas.
The city's leaders donned royal suits similar to those of Pangeran Jayakarta, the ruler of Jakarta in the early 1500s.
Together with Tengku Mohamed Syawal from Kampong Gelam Palace in Singapore, they officially opened the last day of the four-day festival by hitting the traditional bamboo bell, the kentungan, at 3:30 p.m.
Although the festival was interesting, apparently many visitors had come to see Jokowi. 'We've been here since 9 a.m., so we can get the best spot to see the governor,' said Sutrisno, a resident of Pondok Labu, South Jakarta, who came with his wife and infant child.
Another visitor, Wati, said she and her three children went to Monas from Matraman, East Jakarta, to see the parade.
'My son found out about it from the Internet and asked me to go with him,' said Wati. 'It's too bad I couldn't see the parade as there were too many people in the parade lane.'
The event was Indonesia's first in terms of exhibiting royal representatives from both inside the country and abroad. The festival also exhibited 80 royal carriages from the country's kingdoms, like Surakarta in Central Java and Minang in West Sumatra. Overseas participants included Japan, the UK, Norway, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden, South Africa, Brunei Darussalam, Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines.

Best Poem of Suzette Richards
Golden Autumn
The soft sunlight bathes
the last of the flowers.
The gentle sea breeze
kisses the branches,
releasing the sensual
scent of the lavender bush.
I'm drinking in the
moment - savouring it.
It spills over into
pleasant past memories:
People whom I've known
and warmly loved.
I reach out to an illusion
of strong emotions conjured
by the senses. Knowing it
will be lost as soon as
I try to capture it again.
Standing still now. Satisfied.
Autumn is slowing me down
to an enforced slower pace.
It is nature's way to ...
Do Not Put Asunder
When we met briefly,
it was not you chiefly
that I was seeking.
I have dreamt of love
sent from above.
Our ages peaking.
As drops of rain
wash away pain,

Kansas head coach Charlie Weis released his depth chart, heading into Saturday night's season opener with South Dakota. It reveals some surprises and a lot of decisions that shouldn't come as a surprise. Needless to say, there are reasons to be excited to see the product on the field, when the team takes the field, Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
Offensively, Kansas will be led by quarterback Jake Heaps with Michael Cummings backing him up. Obviously, that is no surprise. Instead, the excitement will be focused on Heaps finally being able to show what he can do on the field in a game after sitting out 2012 after transferring from BYU.
The starting running back position is another non-surprise, as senior James Sims will line up against the Coyotes. Taylor Cox or Darrian Miller will serve as his backups. Miller's return was an added bonus for the team after a solid freshman year in 2011. Weis has raved about Cox, after he turned in one of the best camps on the team.
Jimmay Mundine will start at tight end with Trent Smiley backing him up. Mundine has garnered some attention from some in media circles, saying that the junior could be one of the better tight ends in the Big 12. Mundine has certainly earned the praise, becoming one of the team leaders on and off the field.
Tony Pierson will line up at the "F" position and fans will get to see the different ways that Weis and the offensive staff plan to use him. Keep an eye on Brandon Bourbon, who will back Pierson up. Bourbon is a terrific athlete, who will do some things from there as well.
The wide receivers will be looking to reach the end zone for the first time in Weis tenure. In 2013, the chances are good for that to happen and happen more than just a couple of times.
Justin McCay and Josh Ford will make up the "X" position, while Christian Matthews will be the starting "Z" with newcomer Rodriguez Coleman and Tre' Parmalee serving as backups.
McCay and Matthews starting comes as no surprise, as McCay turned many heads last year on the show team with Heaps. Matthews, meanwhile has had one of the best springs and summers of anyone on the team.
The starting offensive line will feature three newcomers and two holdovers from last year with a twist. Pat Lewandowski will get the starting nod at center, with Dylan Admire serving as backup.
JUCO transfers Ngalu Fusimalohi and Mike Smithburg will start at left and right guard, respectively, while Aslam Sterling will be the starting left tackle, with newcomer Zach Fondal opposite him at right tackle. Brian Beckmann will serve as Fondal's primary backup.
The specialists will showcase a dramatic improvement to the kicking game, as promised by Weis. Trevor Pardula will handle the kickoff duties, but could also be called upon to attempt a long field goal. Pardula has the ability to make from as far as 60 yards, but as Weis pointed out, could also miss from 30.
Matthew Wyman will be the starting placekicker and have no fear, he has range too, showing the ability to make from as far out as 50 yards. On Tuesday, Weis said Wyman won the starting kicker job and it wasn't close.
Weis loves the fact that if they needed to attempt a really long field goal to win a game, he could call on another kicker. The scenario will remind some fans of former kickers Johnny Beck and Scott Webb, who each saw action in 2004. Beck was primarily called on for really long field goals, while Webb was the short man. Pardula's assessment could remind some of Beck, who was outstanding at times from long range.
Pardula will also get the nod at punter. Ron Doherty will serve as back up. Doherty handled most of the punting a year ago.
Kickoff returning duties will be handled by Cox and Bourbon. Both have the speed and ability to give Kansas a good boost on offense. Meanwhile, punts will be handled by Connor Embree and Parmalee. Embree will also backup Blake Jablonski, who will hold on kicks.

Q: I have been thinking of adding a kitten to our home. We have no other resident animals, and we work during the week. A breeder told me that she wouldn't let us buy just one kitten; we would have to buy two, because one kitten would be lonely. What do you think about this? Is it better to get one kitten or two and why?
A: Whenever possible, it is best to adopt or buy a pair of kittens who are buddies. Besides keeping each other company, kittens learn from their interactions with each other. When playing together, kittens learn both social skills and important play boundaries. When one kitten plays a little too rough, the recipient will communicate to her buddy through body language and vocalizations to not play so intensely and to inhibit bites. The kittens quickly learn the acceptable limits of play. Additionally, playing together helps kittens learn vital hunting skills. Kittens, by definition, have endless reservoirs of energy, actively playing and exploring their environment. When kittens are left alone for hours at a time with no one to play with, they often entertain themselves with activities that are not appreciated by their people. Also, single kittens can develop attention-seeking behaviors. Having a pair of kittens lessens the likelihood of this occurring. Two kittens keep each other stimulated and occupied, while simultaneously learning essential skills.
This is also true of bonded adult cats, as well. Bonded pairs should always be adopted into the same home. In addition to keeping each other stimulated, cats can become depressed and grieve when separated from a buddy they are bonded to.
That being said, older cats who have been alone all of their lives may or may not benefit from a new companion. It depends on the individual cats and their histories. Some cats are best off alone; bringing in a new companion can lead to stress and aggression. Other cats, when the introductions are done gradually, adjust well and welcome the new companion.

Great idea !!!
Linda St. Louis, MO
Having been in a situation where a kitten was introduced to a home where there was an older cat, I firmly agree with getting TWO kittens. They keep each other occupied instead of annoying the older cat and since they usually focus on each other, it allows the older cat the chance to have some "alone" time, yet join in if and when he/she feels the need to do so.
Galadriel Lothlorien, ME
I'm not sure I agree with this. A lot of people can't take two cats at the same time. It's a lot of work, especially for a new owner. It all depends on the situation.

Milwaukee movies off the grid
A blizzard of Nordic films
The Nordic Film Festival runs through Sunday at the UWM Union Theatre, 2200 E. Kenwood Blvd., with cinematic offerings from northern Europe ranging from a silent drama to a thriller drawn from a bestseller by Norwegian writer Jo Nesbø. »Read Full Article
Next Act gives wings, radio style to 'It's a Wonderful Life'
Imagine a Milwaukee without its musicians and dancers, its singers and actors, its highly reputed symphony and its world-class theater. It would look a lot more like Pottersville, that mean-spirited burg of cheap thrills and third-class entertainment that greets George Bailey before his great awakening.
Such were my thoughts Friday night as six veteran Milwaukee-based actors tugged at my heartstrings for the second straight year, in Next Act Theatre's reprise of "It's a Wonderful Life," as transformed by Mary MacDonald Kerr into a 1957 radio play, coming straight to us from the studio of Milwaukee's very own WNAT. »Read Full Article(1)

Best way to start the day.

Bought this to use in our new stove-top coffee maker. I chose it as the name reminded me of sitting outside a Parisian cafe and it's as good as it's word. Delicious authentic tasting coffee just like you get in continental coffee shops.

Gogoplata (Nino Schembri)
When Nino calls the gogoplata a "position" that's not a mistranslation. That's really how he sees it.
There are a dozen or so different ways to attack from within this one position, but Nino offers us two. One that is really simple and (in my opinion) everyone should know, and the other that is really cool for those of us who have some more leg mobility.
Also, notice that on the first submission, he doesn't even use his other leg.
He doesn't need to.
He can work to submit with just left leg by grabbing the toe.

I've seen too many spiders over the past fewmonths. Yellow ones with black marks on it, long black ones with a white dot, long daddy legs. This time I mistook a clump of dead grass for a dead spider. I know that spiders benefit in getting rid of bugs, but it be nice if they were gone for a day.

J. MUGABI's fundraising event
Dear friend,
Due to the long drought that has hit East Africa, the prevailing poverty and high inflation,
many children from low income families here in Uganda are starving. Many children do not have access to food, Those who can have access, eat only one insuffiecent meal per day. I want to support Youth With A Vision who are on ground tasked to provide regular food to the starving children in their foster families and Kako Primary School.
On 22 October 2011, I'll be taking the greatest challenge in my life-running a 14 Km race of the Masaka Marathon to help raise funds to provide food to some of these hungry kids here in Masaka. I will be training solidaly for 8 weeks and will run 14Km on at the Masaka Marathon. I want to raise €1044 ($1500) for YW AV to continue providing food to the starving kids. I hope you'll be able to sponsor me. I know the friends I'll count on
For each child to access a cup of porridge with sugar meal, it will cost €1 per week per child. My initial target will be to cover the cost of food (a cup of porridge with sugar meal) for 261 children for 1 month.
Your sponsorship is critical and will help to make a difference to these starving children.
Making your donation here at betterplace.org is safe and easy. You are free to use either your Paypal or credit card. Betterplace.org forwards 100% of all donations. You can even track the use of funds. Not only is betterplace.org a great way to raise support, but it provides transparency as well, showing how your donation directly affects the project outcome.
That's why I would be very grateful if you sponsored me now!
Thank you!
John Mugabi

Best PhD Thesis Prize
UACES awards a prize annually for the PhD thesis that has made an original and promising contribution to research in the area of contemporary European Studies in the previous year.
Scroll down for competition rules, eligibility and how to enter the 2017 prize.
Rikke Wagner
2015 Winner
Awarded to Rikke Wagner for her thesis Exit as Voice: Transnational Citizenship Practices in Response to Denmark's Family Unification Policy.
Modern western understandings of citizenship are closely tied to the nation state. This is the political community where members are expected to exercise their freedoms and practice solidarity. When individuals claim rights across borders and move in and out of different polities the state-centric citizenship model is disturbed. Nowhere is this more pronounced than in the European Union where borders are transformed by transnational migration and internal mobility. Wagner develops an agonistic conception of citizenship and cross-border movement through a heuristic empirical case study of transnational immigration and EU mobility in the Danish family unification dispute.
The jury praised Wagner's thesis for its 'high quality of argument' and for its 'genuinely original and interesting contribution to the literature.' As one jury member commented, 'it's an interesting piece of ethnography and adds a great deal to more abstract studies of EU citizenship.'

On the morning of Feb. 11, 1, Henry Remache and I were driving to the University of South Carolina at Lancaster. It was about 7:30 a.m. We were in the right lane near Doug Crenshaw's Energy Center.
A young lady blew past us. I noticed a sticker in her rear window that said, "You can't fix stupid."
Henry speaks English as a second language. I showed him the sticker and we laughed.
I read that South Carolina legislators are considering giving the PGA a $10 million dollar loan to hold a golf tournament at Hilton Head.
The budget, at the same time, would eliminate all department of disabilities and special needs programs except for people who live in institutional settings.
Does the word "priority" come to your mind?
At the same time, I read that a community in your York County known known as Blackmon Road lives mostly without water, sewer or electricity. They have lived that way for at least 20 years.
Using arm-twisting, threats and bribes, the administration and its leaders in the Congress have passed legislation that will spell the end of our republic. The progressive movement has won. By promising everything to the masses, our government has finalized complete control of our future. No more respect for the Constitution. No more states rights. The insertion of the government and its bureaucrats between each of us and our doctors will be the norm for everything to come.
It's hard to believe, but there are signs. The yellow daffodil defying the snow. The sound of the bat making contact with a baseball from area ballfields. The engines roaring from Lancaster Motor Speedway. The annual festivals. The little buds about to burst on the flowering trees.
On March 21, the Democratic controlled Congress passed President Barack Obama's unconstitutional health-care bill against the will of the majority of Americans. Before the vote, opinion polls were showing between 55-65 percent of citizens were against the bill.
I guess we are learning elections do have consequences. Never has Congress passed such a sweeping piece of legislation affecting every American with the support of only one party and against the will of a majority of its citizens.
Jesus was considered blasphemous by the religious leaders of his day because he claimed to be the son of God, the only way to heaven. It had nothing to do with hair length or liberal American politicians who support abortion.
It's that time of year again. We are getting ready for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's (JDRF) Walk to Cure Diabetes. With your support, we hope all children with diabetes will be cured.
I am the grandmother of two wonderful young girls with Type 1 juvenile diabetes.
Over the past six weeks, The Lancaster News has featured its highly read Cold Case series about unsolved murders in Lancaster County dating back some 40 years.
During those weeks, some faces from the past have rekindled reflections of those crime stories. Some of those I recall, like the late Harry Frazier, a gifted athlete in his day, playing youth sports in Lancaster.

Obama wants Pentagon and NASA to play nice for moon race
Washington (DC) - NASA's chief Michael Griffin, rumored in December by four witnesses to have had a red faced meeting with Obama's transition team leader, Lori Garver, is again resisting what may turn out to be standard policy in the Obama administration. Obama seeks a type of merger between the civilian space agency and the military. Under Obama's vision, NASA and The Pentagon will join forces, sharing expenses, to foster our return to the moon by the year 2020, a date competing with China's effort.
In 1958, President Eisenhower signed into law the civilian agency mandate for NASA. Following that law, several previous military efforts were handed over to NASA for continued research and development. These included the well known Saturn I heavy lift project in November, 1959; the transfer of the Army Ballistic Missile Agency's responsibilities to NASA in December, 1959; the transfer of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and all of its research to NASA in December, 1959.
Several other programs transferred to civilian control include the Army's million-pound thrust F1 rocket engine, Centaur high-performance upper stage, Pioneer moon problems, the man-in-space-soonest orbital manned capsule, the Army's Explorer satellite, Project Adam suborbital manned capsule, the Navy's Vanguard booster and satellite with the Able upper stage.
All of these were military programs transferred to NASA's control. Now, some 50 years later, the Obama administration cites concern over maintaining our lead in space against China as the driving impetus behind a future NASA sharing R&D expenses with the Pentagon, and potentially cancelling existing projects, such as the Ares I rocket, in favor of military alternatives.
According to Bloomberg, "Obama has said the Pentagon's military space program -- which spent about $22 billion in fiscal year 2008, almost a third more than NASA's budget -- could be tapped to speed the civilian agency toward it's goals as the recession pressures federal spending."
NASA currently has a five-year gap between the retirement of the Space Shuttle and the return to space via the Orion six-person craft that can carry astronauts to the ISS and the moon atop the Ares I and Ares V rockets (currently under development). During the gap, NASA has contracted with two commercial space companies to service the ISS.
Obama's team has already asked NASA officials about the cost savings of scrapping the agency's Ares I rocket. Griffin told Obama's transition team leader, Lori Garver, that "her colleagues lack the engineering background to evaluate rocket options," according to agency spokesman Chris Shank.
The Pentagon is showing support for Obama's vision, according to Bloomberg. John Logsdon, a policy expert at the National Air and Space Museum who has conferred with Obama's transition advisors, has said "No one really has a firm idea what NASA's cost savings might be, but the military's launch vehicles are basically developed. You don't have to build them from scratch [as you do with Ares I and Ares V]."
China currently has a heavy-lift rocket under development that will be capable of reaching the moon. It's projected test date will be 2013. China also plans to dock two separate spacecraft in 2010, a necessary iterative step before a trip to the moon can be made as the required crew modules and payload modules must be launched separately and docked due to their mass. China is planning a mission to the moon on/about the year 2020 - same as the United States.
The concern over China's parity with U.S. space dominance is driving Obama's team, according to Bloomberg. Dean Cheng, a senior Asia analyst with CNA Corp in Alexandria, Virginia, said, "If China puts a man on the moon, that in itself isn't necessarily a threat to the U.S. But it would suggest that China had reached a level of proficiency in space comparable to that of the United States."

Acer Aspire R7-571G-73538G25ass

This is ultimately what holds us back from wholeheartedly recommending the R7. While it is a real joy to use, and packs a decent enough punch for most users, it also comes with a pretty high pricetag. With that in mind, we can't help but think that waiting a few months is going to be a better option than taking the plunge now and missing out on the longevity benefits of Intel's new CPUs as well as the feature bumps being done by Acer itself.

Acer's Aspire R7 challenges the concept of conventional notebook layout by placing the touchpad above the keyboard. Ultimately, it's what makes the R7 so hard to get used to, even after prolonged usage. We like its screen though, and the Ezel hinge allows it to be positioned in many interesting ways.

Now the great thing about Pathfinder operations inside of Illustrator is that they allow you to take basic shapes and combine them to create more complex paths and I'll give you a sense of a few practical applications of Pathfinder operations in subsequent exercises. But for now in this exercise, I just want to give you a basic, somewhat goofy introduction as you will see here, but it will give you a sense for how Pathfinder Operations work and how they have changed inside of Illustrator CS4. So if you are used to the Illustrator CS3 and earlier approach, you will see things are different now.
Now I have been working with this sample file for years here but I have gone ahead and updated it and I have called it Emerald submarine.ai. You can see here that I have got a couple of main shapes. I have got this emerald submarine in the background and then I have got this silhouette of this fellow and we'll call this fellow Ringo and the idea is I'm sort ripping off this movie called Yellow Submarine, which was a cartoon vehicle for an obscure band called The Beatles. You probably haven't heard of them but back in their day, they were as big as Lady Gaga. I kid you not. And so the idea here is we are going to take Ringo and we are going to combine him with the submarine and we are going to do so using a Pathfinder operation.
Now to get to the Pathfinder operations inside of Illustrator, you go to the Window menu and you choose the Pathfinder command, or you have got a keyboard shortcut if you want, you have got Ctrl+ Shift+F9, Command+Shift+F9 on the Mac. I wouldn't bother to memorize that one if I were you, but I'll show you this. You also have the option of clicking on this icon right there. If you can see this column of icons on screen inside of Illustrator and that will bring up the Pathfinder palette. We are going to be working with the Pathfinder palette a lot throughout this chapter. So I'm going to go ahead and drag this little group of palettes over here to this location, right there above the Layers and Appearance palettes so that we can see it. And notice that we have two rows of Pathfinder operations, these little icons here, two rows.
One is called Shape Modes, which can potentially create compound shapes inside of Illustrator, which permits you to create dynamic interactions between shapes, as we are about to see. And then we have this Static Pathfinder operations. Once applied, they are applied for good. So you are actually changing the nature of the shape. So let me show you what I'm talking about. I am going to go ahead and click on Ringo in order to make him active and then Shift-click on the submarine in the background and let's say that we want to merge these two shapes into one. When we go over to this first icon right there, which is now called Unite. This is what it used to be called in the way old days but this is a change from its previous name in Illustrator CS3.
Note if I click on this icon, I go ahead and permanently fuse this two shapes together and not only are they permanently adhered to one another, so that you can see that the path online is now tracing around both the submarine and Ringo and we have got this hole right there that represents the gap between Ringo's legs and another hole that's part of his high-heel boot right there. But this is a permanent fusion of the two shapes, that's something we didn't see in Illustrator CS3 and I'll explain the difference in just a moment.
Also, Illustrator has gone ahead and assigned just one set of Fill and Stroke attributes to the entire fused shape. So it's gone ahead and taken the attributes from the forward object, which was Ringo, and assigned that black stroke and that yellow fill to the submarine as well. So we now have a yellow submarine. I am going to go ahead and press Ctrl+Z or Command+Z on the Mac in order to undo that operation, and then notice, if I hover over this icon, you will see that it says Alt-click to create a Compound Shape and add to the shape area.
That would be an Option-click on the Mac. So go ahead and do that, Alt-click on that icon or on the Mac, Option-click, and now see that we still have two yellow objects. So Illustrator goes ahead and assigns the black stroke and the yellow fill from the forward object to the entire compound shape. Notice there is a slight difference here. We also have independent path outlines going on. So we still have Ringo and the submarine independent of each other. And I'll show you why that is such a great thing when we take a look at editing compound shapes in the very next exercise.
