- wide selection of colors and styles

customer reviews for roller shades
"Land of the Midnight Sun"
By from Juneau Alaska
We have a wide bedroom window and live in the Alaska where the spring and summer daylight is long. Purchased patterned black-out roller shade which is does an excellent job. The fit is perfect -- although I get some credit for measuring correctly. Ordered the motorized remote due to width of shade required and it works perfect. Being in Alaska, we were also looking for insulating benefits yet didn't want the window to "sweat" from trapped air between window and shade. We have not seen a problem here either. Overall, It was a great buy as I was even impressed with shipping cost and speed of delivery.View this product
"Best Shades"
By Mom of 2 from Newburgh, NY
We purchased 2 of these shades, 1 for each of our childrens' rooms. They look great!, the cords are not a hazard as it is on a track attached to window sill. They open and close with ease, most of all these were the perfect color and design for a child's room.View this product

Brewers have stability in C Lucroy
Associated Press | Last updated March 21, 2012
He doesn't exactly stand out on a team with Ryan Braun, Nyjer Morgan and Zack Greinke. All the same, catcher Jonathan Lucroy has quietly brought a sense of stability to the Milwaukee Brewers. Lucroy missed the first 10 games of last season with a broken right pinkie, but wound up starting 114 games and anchoring a pitching staff that carried Milwaukee to the NL Central Division championship. For a team that hasn't had the same starting catcher for more than two years since Jason Kendall in 2008 and 2009 - and for more than three years since Mike Matheny, the St. Louis Cardinals new manager, in 1996-98 - seeing Lucroy ready for this season is good news. Especially for the pitching staff. ''It gives them a sense of security, knowing who they are working with, knowing they don't have to show a guy what they do or anything like that,'' Lucroy said. ''I already know what they are capable of and what their ability is, all their pitches, their mindset and their game plan.'' All five starters finished with double-digit wins, thanks to Lucroy and reserve catcher George Kottaras. Lucroy, a third-round pick in 2007, caught Yovani Gallardo (17-10), Greinke (16-6), Shaun Marcum (13-7) and left-hander Chris Narveson (11-8). Kottaras made 22 of his 31 starts when leftie Randy Wolf (13-10) pitched. Gallardo not only posted the most wins of his career, but joined Greinke as the first pair of Brewers teammates to record at least 200 strikeouts in the same season. Gallardo fanned 207 and Greinke 201. Greinke and Marcum both tied career-highs in victories. The Brewers return the same starting rotation for the first time in recent history. And Lucroy couldn't be happier about that. ''I'm really familiar with all five of them,'' he said. ''George knows Wolf and the other guys. The combination of us two knowing all the starters primarily and the relievers for that matter means we don't have to get to know each other. We can hit it running right out of the box.'' One change, though, is that Brewers manager Ron Roenicke wants to see if he can get Wolf and Lucroy to work together. The two are using spring training to see if they can get on the same page. ''I talked to Randy about it,'' Roenicke said. ''Maybe a couple of times early, we'll see how it goes. There's going to be a time when it's not going to always be George. So, whether Randy goes and pitches for somebody else or George is hurt, I don't want Lucroy to all of a sudden have to catch Randy during the season in important ball games, and he's never done it.'' Greinke, the AL Cy Young Award winner in 2009, enjoyed the benefits of having the same catcher while he was with the Kansas City Royals. Before coming to Milwaukee in 2011 in a trade with the Royals, he threw to John Buck for three seasons and one each to Miguel Olivo and Kendall. ''We had a veteran pitching staff, which makes it easier,'' Greinke said. ''But, if you have a young pitching staff and a young catcher, that's a recipe for disaster. When you get to know guys, the longer you're with the same people, it's probably better.''

On Aug. 28, 1963, about 250,000 people gathered at the Lincoln Memorial for the March on Washington, where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his renowned "I Have A Dream" speech.
To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the historic speech, a "Let Freedom Ring" ceremony today at the Lincoln Memorial, will feature speakers such as President Barack Obama, former presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, and many other activists and entertainers.
The evolution of civil rights in America didn't only take place in Washington, D.C. Former Potter County Commissioner Iris Lawrence, who has been following the events and speeches via television, recalls changes that took place during that era right here in Amarillo.
"I think it's good they're celebrating this anniversary," Lawrence said. "I'm just sad that a lot of our young people are not as involved as they should be."
Young people today take much for granted, Lawrence said.
"I tell my grandkids all the time, you all have no idea what we had to go through," Lawrence said.
In the summer of 1961, Lawrence and her friends from the Carver High School Class of 1960 were home from their first year of college and decided to go see a movie, but ended the night in jail.
"When we got there, the lady said she couldn't sell us tickets, so we staged a walk-in at the Paramount Theater," she said
They marched outside the theater until they were jailed for disturbing the peace, Lawrence said.
"Even though I was in jail, I wasn't afraid," she said. "Everything started back then in the churches, where our parents were the leaders in the community, so my dad, John Sanders, and my pastor, Rev. L.B. George, told us before we even left for the movies, 'Don't be afraid, because we are backing you.'"
Young people around the nation held sit-ins at restaurant counters, skipped school to participate in marches and were attacked by police dogs and blasted with water cannons during public demonstrations. From the Little Rock Nine in 1957 integrating Central High School in Arkansas, to the Freedom Riders riding buses through the South in integrated pairs, young people made vital contributions to civil rights, Lawrence said.
Today's civil rights leaders are faced with a much different political and racial landscape — from the George Zimmerman verdict reaction to the Supreme Court rulings on voting rights, affirmative action and job discrimination — and wonder: How much did they really get done over the past five decades?
"I don't think we've gone back, but we are not where we need to be, and you can see that in the way they treat the president," Lawrence said."We need to open our eyes and see each other as equals regardless of who you lay with, who you sit with, who you eat with, the color of your skin, or religion."
Unlike the focus on jobs and freedom in 1963, this year's march anniversary sees civil rights leaders incorporating what they see as the next civil rights frontier — immigration reform and lesbian-gay-
bisexual-transsexual civil rights.
The Rev. Bernie Barbour, pastor of Metropolitan Community Church Amarillo, said the new make-up of the 21st century civil rights movement should be seen as a positive.
"It's really about coalition," he said. "All of that is part of the minority community. It's easy to suppress when you keep people separated. In order to seek justice, you must include all groups."
But gay issues remain a divisive topic within the African-American community, especially in black churches. King's daughter, the Rev. Bernice King, has spoken out against gay marriage, while her late mother, Coretta Scott King, was an ardent gay rights supporter.
"Coretta would have been ecstatic about today's march," Barbour said. "That's who would have been included had Dr. King still been alive."
Often, people water down Dr. King's message, especially his "I Have A Dream" speech, he said.
"Dr. King was radical," Barbour said. "After the 1963 march, he started the poor people's campaign and he sought justice for all minorities. There's power in numbers, and he understood that."
For years, the NAACP remained silent on the issue of same-sex issues until May of last year. After President Obama announced his support for same-sex marriage, the organization's board voted to support gay unions.
The group declared its view of marriage as a civil right under the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause. In a written statement to The Associated Press, NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Jealous said a broader coalition is needed to fight the civil rights battles of the 21st century.
For years, people have "cherry-picked comments" from Dr. King, Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Dubois and more on what it means to be equal, but finally, Barbour said, today's civil rights leaders have got it right.
"I'm looking forward to hearing President Obama and the other leaders speak," Barbour said. "It gives me hope to see folks doing more than giving lip service."

David Beckham has stolen all the headlines today by signing for Paris St-Germain. The 37-year-old has completed his medical and is about to be officially unveiled at a press conference in the French capital.
Harry Redknapp has tried his best to take the headlines himself and even did an interview outside of his Range Rover. He's been busy completing a £12.5 million deal for Christopher Samba and is still hoping to bring in Peter Odemwingie, Peter Crouch, Jermaine Jenas and god knows who else.
Jenas shares an agent with Danny Graham, who has signed for Sunderland in a £5 million deal from Swansea City.
Jack Butland had a secret medical at Stoke City yesterday before his move from Birmingham today in a deal believed to be worth £5 million. The goalkeeper will stay at Birmingham for the remainder of the season.
Norwich have also tried to raid Houghton's old club but have had bids rejected for Curtis Davies. The Canaries have signed Luciano Becchio and are still chasing Celtic's Gary Hooper despite having had four bids rejected.
With more than six hours before the window slams shut there is still plenty of time for deals to be hammered out and the Mirror's very own correspondent's are busy out there finding out all the gossip.
Stay in touch right up until 11pm with our live blog. You can see what happened earlier in our afternoon recap - and there's a morning recap too.
The former England captain is being unveiled to the press in Paris by his new club PSG AS WE SPEAK.
Looking immaculately groomed as always, Becks is sitting next to the club president, who is already talking of his importance to "the project".
He's not confirming whether the project's full title is "the project to sell as many shirts as possible in the Far East," but...
Becks says he hasn't spoken French "for quite a few years".
He confirms Posh and all the little Beckhams will be staying in London because of the kids' schooling.
French journo asks him for a word in French. "Bonjour," he replies.
Yes David. Spot on.
Beckham saying he is very "excited and honoured" blah, blah, blah, and tips PSG to be a major force for the next 15 to 20 years.
He won't be there that long though - the club have confirmed his deal lasts until the end of the season.
He also said he had more offers from clubs than he's ever had in his career. That'll be QPR and West Ham then...
He also says: "I can still run around and still play like I could when I was 21. I haven't lost my pace because I ever had any in the first place, and I've got lots of experience to pass on.
"I've played with some of the top teams and top players in the world."
Show off!
Martin O'Neil has shown Louis Saha the door at Sunderland, and then told him to go through it.
O'Neill revealed earlier this month that both parties had agreed to cancel the 34-year-old's contract after 14 senior appearances, and now he has formally parted company with the Black Cats.
Chief executive Margaret Byrne told the club's official website, www.safc.com: "We wish Louis all the very best for the future and thank him for his contribution to Sunderland."
David Beckham has told the assembled press: "My salary will go towards local children's charity in Paris."
We reckon his wages for five months at PSG will come to around £2.5m so it's a tidy sum. Fair play.
Meanwhile Roy Hodgson was inevitably asked about Becks making an England comeback. He didn't sound like it will be on the cards any time soon.
"When did he last play for the national team?" said Hodgson.
"I don't think he has been plotting a return to the national team.
"I have spoken to him on a number of occasions. Maybe at some point he will pull me aside and tell me not to forget him even though he has not played for so long.
"I am not really prepared for that.
"David made up his mind a while ago what he wanted to do with his life."
He added: "David is a footballing icon, not only in this country but all over the world."
"He is one of the most recognisable footballers anywhere.
"We are perfectly aware of who he is, what he is and what he has done. All I can do is wish him all the best.
"Let's hope he can be as big a success at PSG as he has been everywhere else."
Mange tout Rodney, as Del Boy would say.
Right, few bits and pieces to mop up for you.
Sunderland defender Titus Bramble has had his say on Danny Graham joining the Black Cats. He said on Twitter: "Very happy that Danny graham has signed for us. A very good player who will score lots of goals for us. A great addition to the squad."
Sky are claiming Spurs keeper Heurelho Gomes has joined German side Hoffenheim on loan for the rest of the season, and Gabriele Marcotti, also on Twitter, says: "Sky Italia reporting Stekelenburg on his way to Fulham, Viviano on his way to Roma to replace him."
No go
Let's kick one of the big Twitter rumours doing the rounds into touch now. Our Arsenal expert John Cross tells us David Villa to the Emirates is a non-runner.
It had been reported that the Barca striker was on his way to London in £15m+ deal, but we understand it's not happening.
BUT, there could still be some movement at the club before the deadline, and we'll bring you the latest when we have it from Crossie.
Stay tuned and do not adjust your set...
Another one of our men in the know is David Maddock up in Liverpool. He says all is still quiet at Anfield, but Everton are still working away trying to complete a deal or two.
First up, Barnsley's 18-year-old player John Stones is closing in on a move to Goodison. David says the fee is going to be slightly less than the £3m Wigan offered, because the youngster wants to join David Moyes outfit.
"He's due to have a medical any time now," says our man in the know.
On Alvaro Negredo, David tells us the club are still working on it, and are still hopeful a deal can be done with cash-strapped Sevilla. Expect that one to run long into the night...
Here's Becks:
Arsenal news!
So it looks like the Gunners might sign someone today after all, though it's not going to be David Villa.
It looks like 26-year-old left back Nacho Monreal could be on his way from Malaga.
Some wags have already been on to his Wikipedia page to create a little mischief.
It's already been corrected, but we managed to get a quick screen shot first:
Our man John Cross will have more on this shortly.
Done deal!
Newcastle chief Derek Llambias said earlier today the club were not doing any business.
Turns out old Derek was telling porkies, as they've now confirmed they have signed teenage defender Kevin Mbabu from Swiss side Servette.
The 17-year-old, who is predominantly a central defender, has put pen to paper on a three-and-a-half-year deal after a successful trial and will go into the club's development squad.
The Switzerland Under-19 international told the club's official website, www.nufc.co.uk: "I am delighted to join Newcastle United.
"Today is a big day for me. I've always wanted to sign for a club in the Premier League and Newcastle is one of the biggest there is.
"I want to finish my development here with the reserves before one day training with the first team and hopefully breaking into the first team."
Some rapid fire rumours for you:
Our own Darren Lewis reckons the West Brom one could be about to be set free. Yes, Peter Odemwingie is on his way to London, presumably to sign up for Harry Redknapp's own personal Million Man march.
Transfer king Alan Nixon says Blackburn have turned down a bid from Norwich for their Olsson.
And the BBC reckon Chris Baird is on the verge of joining West Brom from Fulham for *puts finger in corner of mouth* ONE MILLION DOLLARS!
Er, we mean pounds.
Brilliantly tragi-comic story involving Fulham from Martin Lipton:
Fulham's hopes of landing Roma keeper Marten Stekelenburg look to have fallen through - AFTER the Dutch No 1 took off for London.
Former Ajax keeper Stekelenburg was given permission to leave Roma and join Martin Jol's side, presumably as the long-term replacement for veteran Mark Schwarzer.
But Roma failed to sign a replacement and with the Serie A deadline coming at 6pm English time, tried to contact Stekelenburg and tell him to come back.
Stekelenburg, though, had already taken off from a private airfield near the Italian capital - only for him needing to hear the bad news when he lands in London in around an hour's time.
Our man on Merseyside, Dave Maddock says that the deal for Leroy Fer could be BACK ON!
Twente are now 'considering' a proposal which could involve an initial loan deal - which they turned down flat 24 hours ago.
The Toffees are also closing in on a deal for Barnsley youngster John Stones, which will annoy Wigan no end.
Something to watch while you're eating your dinner.
As the Gunnersclose in on Malaga man Nacho Monrealour snappers have nabbed the first pics of him travelling to the Emirates...
And in an Arsenal shirt!
(Thanks very much to Twitter users@joel_Afcand@sharpcroftfor the images)
It's all going a bit Pete Tong with this one.
The West Brom striker has taken his war of words with West Brom to DEFCON 1. Or is it 5? Well, whichever one is the highest.
Our man David Anderson says that Everton's deal for Leroy Fer is definitely, 100% dead:
Sources in Holland had suggested that Everton's £8.6million move for Fer could be back on with Twente accepted the Blues' request to restructure the deal.
Everton wanted to renegotiate the terms of Fer's transfer when the Dutch midfielder's medical revealed a knee problem.
However Twente chairman Joop Munsterman is being quoted in Holland saying the deal is definitely off.
More bad news for Sam Allardyce.
First of all Aston Villa full-back Stephen Warnock has agreed to join his dad Neil at Leeds rather than move down south.
And now Blackburn have confirmed that Paul Robinson will not be joining the Hammers either.
Fortune's always hiding, eh?

Iraq Watchdog Defends Suspension Of 10 TV Channels Like Al Jazeera
Category: Politics
/ Apr 29, 2013 12:41PM EDT
Iraq's media regulator said on Monday (April 29) that the government had nothing to do with its decision to suspended the licenses of ten satellite news networks, including Al Jazeera. The Communication and Media Commission (CMC) regulator took action on Sunday (April 28), accusing the networks of inciting violence through their coverage of clashes triggered by a security force raid on a Sunni Muslim protest camp in Hawija last Tuesday. More than 170 people have been killed in the past week in the worst violence Iraq has seen since Sunnis started staging protests in December to complain about their treatment by Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's Shi'ite-led government. The CMC said sectarian language used in the reports encouraged "criminal acts of revenge by attacking the security forces". Most of the channels are pro-Sunni and often critical of the Shi'ite-led government. Al Jazeera is based in Qatar, a Sunni-ruled kingdom. The watchdog is powerless to stop the channels broadcasting, but may make it harder for their local staff to cover events. Last June, the CMC ordered the closure of 44 media outlets including the BBC and Voice of America. It does not have the power to stop them broadcasting from overseas. Video Source: Reuters

Skip to comments.Is Relying On Foreign Law An Impeachable Offense?
Posted on 03/16/2005 11:19:13 AM PST by Tailgunner Joe
"By what conceivable warrant can nine lawyers presume to be the authoritative conscience of the Nation?" So asked an incredulous Justice Antonin Scalia in response to the latest outrage by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Five activist justices (not even nine) just imposed their personal social preference on every American voter, state legislator, congressman, and juror. Adding insult to injury, the supremacist five used foreign laws, "international opinion," and even an unratified treaty to rationalize overturning more than 200 years of American law and history.
Justice Anthony Kennedy's majority opinion in Roper v. Simmons is a prime example of liberal judges changing our Constitution based on their judge-invented notion that its meaning is "evolving." He presumed to rewrite the Eighth Amendment.
The murder involved in this case was particularly heinous. Christopher Simmons persuaded a fellow teenager to help him commit a brutal murder after assuring him they could "get away with it" because they were both under age eighteen.
Simmons met his pal at 2 a.m. and they broke into Shirley Crook's home as she slept. Simmons and his fellow teenager bound her hands, covered her eyes with duct tape, put her in her own minivan, and drove to a state park.
There they hog-tied her hands and feet together with electrical wire, wrapped her entire face in duct tape, and threw her body from a railroad trestle into the Meramec River. Mrs. Crook drowned helplessly, and her body was found later by fishermen.
Showing no remorse, Simmons bragged about his killing to his friends, declaring that he did it "because the bitch seen my face." He confessed quickly after his arrest and even agreed to reenact the crime on video.
A jury of his peers listened to his attorney's argument that youthful indiscretion should mitigate punishment; the jury observed Simmons' demeanor at trial and heard from a slew of witnesses. After an exhaustive trial and full consideration of age as a factor, the jury and judge imposed the death sentence as allowed by Missouri law.
The American system allows a jury to recommend life-or-death following due process and the applicable law enacted by the representatives of the people of the state. Nothing in the text or history of the Eighth Amendment denies Missouri juries and state legislatures the right to make this decision.
The Supreme Court's main argument was the "trend" since 1989 that seven countries (Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Nigeria, Congo, and China) have banned juvenile capital punishment. Justices Kennedy, Ginsburg, Breyer, Stevens and Souter changed U.S. law so we can follow the lead of those seven countries.
Only four U.S. states have legislated against the juvenile death penalty since 1989 (but none of them was executing juveniles anyway). On the other hand, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Utah and Virginia all allow the death penalty for a seventeen-year-old who commits a particularly shocking murder.
The supremacist five claimed that most other countries don't execute seventeen-year-olds. However, most other countries don't have capital punishment at all, so there is no distinction between seventeen- and eighteen-year-olds.
Furthermore, most other countries don't allow jury trials or other Bill of Rights guarantees, so who knows if the accused ever gets what we would call a fair trial? Over 90 percent of jury trials are in the United States, and we certainly don't want to conform to non-jury-trial countries.
The supremacist five must think they can dictate evolution of the meaning of treaties as well as of the text of the Constitution.
They cited the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, which our Senate year after year has refused to ratify. They also cited the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which we ratified only with a reservation specifically excluding the matter of juvenile capital punishment.
DC sniper Lee Malvo was seventeen during his infamous killing rampage, so now serial killers like him won't have to worry about the death penalty. The terrorists and the vicious Salvadoran gangs will be able to assign seventeen-year-olds as their hit men so they can "get away with it."
We recall that the Supreme Court ruled in Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992 that it could not overturnRoe v. Wade because that might undermine "the Court's legitimacy." But in the Simmons case, the Court flatly overturned its own decision about juvenile capital punishment in Stanford v. Kentucky only 16 years ago.
As Justice Scalia pointed out in dissent, the Court's invocation of foreign law is both contrived and disingenuous. The big majority of countries reject U.S.-style abortion on demand, so the supremacist justices conveniently omitted that "international opinion."
Our runaway judiciary is badly in need of restraint by Congress. A good place to start would be a law declaring it an impeachable offense for justices to rely on foreign law in overriding the U.S. Constitution or congressional or state law.
I think bringing foreign laws into play in an American court is actually a capital offense.
IMO, yes. It clearly violates their oath to uphold OUR Constitution and it's principles in favor of foreign principles.
"Is Relying On Foreign Law An Impeachable Offense?"
Nah. Let's bring in Spartan law. Then everyone gets mad.
Seriously, yes it's impeachable. Foreign law could result theoretically into manditory abortion, like in China.
They have violated the oath and should be removed for cause. But they won't be.
Hey, we have a democracy in which instead of 100 million people, only 9 lawyers are allowed to vote. Live with it.
If we are going to enact foreign laws in this country than lets castrate rapists and take the hands of thieves and gouge out eyes of spies. Lets do public caning and hanging while we are at it.
That is why they are called the Supreme. We out here in the hinderland are just taking up space.
Absolutely! It also illustrates that this oath means nothing to the activist Supreme Court Justice. The promise to uphold the Constitution has become just so much symbolic rhetoric to them, and with that, their honor has vanished.
Can a supreme court ruling be overturned as unconstitional because it violates our constitution? If so, is there a higher power above the supreme court that could/would issue such a ruling?
I believe the only way to overturn a ruling by the supreme court is to bring up s similar matter again in a separate case.
If the Supreme court makes a decision that is unconstitutional, who calls them on that?
Yes, they have violated their oath. But as you say, they will not be impeached. I doubt that a single one of the 435 representatives gave more than 5 seconds thought of actually introducing a bill of impeachment in the House.
Foreign laws like ancient Hebrew laws? Yes I do think it is a bad idea.
"[N]ow that constitutional law is solidly grounded in so many countries, it is time that the United States courts begin looking to the decisions of other constitutional courts to aid in their own deliberative process." -- Chief Justice Rhenquist, "Constitutional Courts - Comparative Remarks" (1989)
I agree with you. If we are going to start enforcing foreign laws in the United States of America why should THEY get to choose which foreign laws are to be enforced!!!
We the People. We gave them that power. We can take it away. Impeach them. Petition the new Court to re-hear the case.
I dunno.
Let's ask ol' "Not Proven/Scottish Law" Snarlin' Arlen Spector...
So, you're down with the US Supreme Court using current, "progressive", European laws as a basis to overturn state laws enacted by the duly elected representatives of the people of that state?
If it is the same one, does anyone know the exact words that the oath contains?
I see the distinct probability that some Supreme Court Justices have repeatedly broken their oath of office, and then added insult to injury in their subsequent explanations.
On the contrary what I said was "it is not a good idea" period, no exceptions.
Section 3331 of Title 5 of the U.S. Code requires high-ranking officers, including Supreme Court justices, to take this oath: "I, ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
I am sorry, but what am I missing?
The only way to prevent activist judges is to hold them accountable. Who would they be accountable to? The people. The constitution was written for the U.S. and hence the people.
Judges can be held accuntable directly by the people voting for or against them. Appointments by the president and governors and approval by the elected officials is not working.
Let the people decide who should be judging them.
Maybe we should give Sharia law a little try over here. Especially for killers and thieves.
Dumb decisions are not impeachable.
Steve, no we are based on English Common law. Even though we use many terms from Roman Law it isn't the basis of our law.
bingeing = beginning
If we are going to be rules by the Supremes, maybe Diana Ross and two other bewigged black sistahs can do a more interesting job LOL
Ronald Reagan speaking of the Soviet Politiboro in 1982
that is true.. and where did they get theirs from?
Does your reply mean that you believe roman law did not influence english common law?
So Phyllis is full of crap. The Court did not rely on international law for their decision, but mentioned that law in the course of their majority ruling. The Court, as it should have, relied on precedent from U.S. Supreme Court and lower court rulings. There is nothing to impeach over.
So what basis for law would you like?

NOt to start a side argument, but that would depend on your definition of "anarchy".
Well, yeah.
It would depend on one's definition of anarchy.
I really wasn't trying to be flippant. And the differences between prevailing "anarchy" definitions/theories are rather profound.
Sure. The 25+ citations from U.S. cases was just to throw everybody off track, right? </sarcasm>
I know.

President's Conference On Medicare Start—
President Johnson told medical and hospital leaders that the most serious problem facing the start of the medicare program is the failure at this time of some 20% of the nation's hospitals to comply with the antidiscrimination provisions of the Civil Rights law.However, he told delegates to a one-day meeting called by the White House that the Federal government "is not going to retreat from clear responsibility" to bar medicare funds to hospitals that have not desegregated.The Health, Education and Welfare Department released figures showing that 79% of the nation's 7,548 hospitals are in compliance, representing 83% of hospital beds. HEW Secretary John Gardner said he believed the number of hospitals not in compliance by July 1 will be "quite small," and that community pressures after medicare is operating will help bring into the program "a very high proportion of the remainder."The

Comments about Sony 55" Class 4K ULTRA HD LED TV:
We purchased ours back on April 20,2015. We have always chosen SONY products over the years. Great quality and dependability were our reasons.. The excellent picture quality is breath taking, just like you were there! We are very satisfied with our purchase and we keep Netflix busy with movie after movie, so enjoyable on this product. I would recommend getting the sound bar to go with it. We chose the HTCT770. It gives you the theater quality sound. Buy it and set back and enjoy it. You will be glad you did.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Full of Error Pop Ups
By YankeeD
1. The most annoying problem with the tv is that in the middle of playing videos through USB, it will say something on the lines of "Media process has stopped working / quit unexpectedly". This happens at least 3 times every day. Don't understand what the problem is. 2. I cannot turn 'Reality Creation' to 'ON' when using netflix. Why? 3. The TV won't recognize the 3D content of '4K 3D' videos, i.e. the videos which are in a 3D format as well as 4K. There's no way to make it recognize 3D...it simply says "Feature not supported" when I press the 3D button on the remote. 4. Cannot convert netflix to 3D - feature not supported. 5. There's no way to sync subtitles in the videos played via USB. The TV has a fantastic picture, but sometimes I feel it acts like a 'dumb' TV. There hasn't been much thought put by Sony to consider the way the users might want to use their TV. It's like all they have to boast about is an excellent picture and a high price tag, with little thought on the user interface and common features. My LG 4K TV (2013 model) was much much better in that regard, even though I would say Sony's picture quality is better.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Lovely TV with One Exception
By MarinaCat17
from Los Angeles, CA, USA
The picture on this TV is simply amazing. I stream a lot of programming and have no problems with the refresh rate on this set. The one problem that I do have is a random lip sync issue. Sometimes the lip sync is off for OTA broadcast, sometimes it's off for shows streaming. When there is a lip sync issue it is pretty severe and distracting from the viewing enjoyment of the program being watched. The issue does not happen every time and it's strange because I have two other TVs set up the same way and have no issues. Aside from that it's a wonderful product.
Warning!! Do not buy this TV
By AvinashKaushik
from Clarksburg, MD 20871, USA
I also got a defective unit like the one posted earlier. There is lot of clouding. They sent me a replacement which was refurbished and that was even worse. I am thinking of going away from Sony now!!!
Great picture and sound, 1 app issue
By donmessec
from 87505
I have had this set about a month. Setup was easy, the box construction really helps this be a one person setup on stand. Streaming is far better than my older LG set. Picture is marvelous overall and I do not have illumination issues in the corners when content is playing - graphic banners, EG Hulu+ banner while waiting for content, is darker in the corners. One issue comes up occasionally, that is an error message when connected to online content that grays out the screen. The message is something along the lines of "Browser will shut down due to internal connection error." It is obviously connected to content but I can not get rid of the grey down and message, even with a restart. I suspect this will be cured with a software or firmware update. Very happy with this TV, would (just might) buy again. The software issue is simply an occasional annoyance and less so than my experiences with some other brands.
Love this tv so far
By Silverstar12
from Boston, MA, USA
Amazing tv at s great price with excellent picture. Easy to setup and install. Other reviewers claim that sometime part of the picture could be hazy, all u have to do is tune your tv a little bit and it will be gone. Sound us acceptable as well. Great price performance than the Samsung.
excellent product
By fefonfx888

so far the best image I've seen in no pro monitor.
Glare and Brightness at Night Very Annoying
By Annoying
from 34990
The screen is like a mirror at night, any light in room reflects back at the watcher. Picture has to be adjusted for night and day watching, to account for brightness at night. I also purchased along with at HT-CT770 Sound Bar. TV doesn't alway turn on sound bar automatically. Sometimes I have to recycle power on TV to start sound Bar. Definitely need sound bar, sound from tv alone is very poor! 3D is basically useless, picture quality in bad. The only reason I bought the 3D model was because it has a black frame. If you don't mind the silver frame and then don't 3D get it. I have a 5 year old Sony KDL46EX720 and find the the picture is much better and without glare from lights in room at night.
I LOVE my new HD TV
By DoxieMom2
from Lakewood, CO, USA
I cannot tell you how thrilled I am with my purchase. Every program is so sharp and clear. I sometimes lose myself in the picture. It is all so life-like. I have never had a television I enjoyed so much. Thank you, Sony!
Awesome tv

Bad Side Effects of Adderall
Q: I have been on adderall for almost a year....I take 20mg at 6am, 25mg at 12...30mg at 3:30 and my last 20mg at 6. I am also on trazodone to help me sleep, along with abilify for bipolar. Previous to adderall, I had an eating disorder for ten years, was always angry, extremely violent and depressed, however, ever since I have been on all of the medications, my mood is happy, I get things done, I do not feel depressed. My doctor all of a sudden wants to wean me off adderall, starting by 20 mg a day. Do you think this is a good idea, because I feel that all of the medication is for once actually working, and Im nervous I will go back to my out of control binging and drinking habbits.
A: I think you should be asking your doctor why he/she is planning to wean you from Adderall; however, Adderall has a high potential for dependence. Adderall can also increase blood pressure, which also increases the risk of strokes and heart attacks. These could be the reasons behind your doctor's decision. If you had recent blood tests done, or your blood pressure on your last visit was higher than usual, then weaning off from Adderall will have more benefits. I suggest you talk to your doctor thoroughly about this, in a non-offensive way of course, and let your doctor know about your apprehensions as well. I do hope I have answered your question and take care always.

what do you mean by "best" though? smartest? most difficult? most fun to play around with?
the most fun ive ever had with any AI was in the thief series. its so much fun to just mess around with the guards. though theyre far from the smartest or most difficult, i consider them the best because i got the most out of them.

I thought it was some kind of "If you could date any game's AI, which would you pick?" deal. Sounds like a ridiculous conclusion to jump to, I know, but there is a topic about "If this board were a woman, would you date her?" after all.

i'm not sure what you mean by Best A.I (smart = changing tactic against you and can be difficult to deal with or as in realistic = act like real people would)
I don't really know about smart but if you If you mean realistic, then I haven't seen anything like Fable 2 because those AI just aren't for looks or just occupying a space to make it looks like a town:
1. they have opinion (on you, on others, about themselves, the world, even your dog, etc...) and those opinion dynamically changes depend on what is happening.
2. they change as you do certain things (and i don't mean using interaction wheel, it is so much deeper than that like:
- they get jealous (if they caught you cheating) and even get into argument with each other.
- they get angry (if you abuse them, bothering them) and just stop talking/walk away
- they open up to you and tell you about their life (if you spend a lot of time with them)
- they take notice on everything about you (from looks, to thing you do) and comment/ask question about it
---------------They event stop noticing you if you have that sex change (some even notice certain similarities to your feature and question themselves or contemplating if you really are the hero they have known before while looking at you walking around)
---------------They beg you to lower their rent and chase you outside of town to do so (when i just raise their rent
--------------- They questions your actions
- each of your kids have their own personality (some are quite, some playful, some curious and ask too many questions, some are proud of you or hate you depend on if you are a hero or not, etc.....it gets really weird to a point where i don't know how many type of reaction they have toward you as their parent, not to mention other kids reaction to your kids....
- I seriously don't know how many dialogue Peter put into that game, but they always seem to have different thing to say/do/think/questions/opinion/reaction...etc in such a natural way and appropriate for any events that happen. I have seen a lot and still i see more shocking reaction from them the more i pay attention. I don't even know the extent of their personality/reaction. I can't think of any game out there where I genuinely thought the AI NPC have their own personality (the only other game like Oblivion might have something similar but no where near the extent of fable 2, and the arrow to the knee like Skyrim really kills it).
You just have to hang around with each of them, play around a lot, read up on their profile (I think Peter put that in to help guide you on how to approach them, and hopefully that you might see a different side to them, which I did), just REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING THEY DO/SAY....eventually you will see they are probably the closet to human you'll see in a game period.
Im playing as a very good guy so maybe that is the pay off for playing that way, you get to see how they react (if you are evil and bring havoc to the world, which sound more fun gameplay wise, everyone will just ignore you and you probably won't see that).

Activities: Advanced Forum
Maintained by Moodlerooms Development
Moodlerooms is proud to release Advanced Forums, which enhances Moodle Forums by providing teachers and students with quick, simple views into the forums and their discussions. Allowing users to sort and search discussions easily and in multiple layouts is key to Advanced Forums increased usability. Read tracking is a feature in Advanced forums that highlights unread posts, making it even easier to manage a forum. This saves the student time in viewing and responding to posts, and saves the teacher time in finding the posts that are most relevant to the class. Teachers are empowered to create anonymous interactions with students, and can grade students through the Moodle gradebook.

- Wed, Dec 16, 2015, 12:36 AMHi Chris/Kris -- Love the Advanced Forums... I can't believe there was a time I never used it! Suggestion: are there any intentions on updating the icon for Advanced Forums? It's very blurry which makes it look like a poor icon next to the standard icons. Also, the red orange/ green colors kind of clash. I have a Hosted moodle so can't update the icon, but I wanted to bring up my suggestions. Thanks!
- Sat, Feb 6, 2016, 7:12 AMA new version of this plugin for Moodle 2.9 has been uploaded to the plugins repository. Corresponding repositories on Github have also been updated. There are no known issues with the new version at this time, but if you do experience a problem please ensure that you submit any issues to tracker.moodle.org.
- Wed, Mar 16, 2016, 9:43 PMHello Kris, the new version still has a postgres error when replying to forum post. I have mad an entry in the bug tracker.
- Thu, Mar 24, 2016, 8:50 PMI would like to have the advanced editor as the default. Or, at least give me the option to turn it on/off.
- Mon, May 23, 2016, 5:08 PMHello, do you have any plans to release a version for Moodle 3.0?
- Tue, Jun 7, 2016, 9:20 PMIs it possiblie to see all posts from a student? I need this to use in Moodle 2.4.
- Tue, Jun 7, 2016, 9:46 PM@Thiago - the capability is not available in the plugin itself, but that information should be queryable in your Moodle database fairly easily.
- Wed, Jul 27, 2016, 9:40 PMHello, thank you for the new version, we were looking forward to it. But we have a problem becuase we have just upgraded to version 3.0.3 and we don´t have plans to upgrade to version 3.0.4 at the moment. Could we install the new version 3.0 of the plugin in Moodle 3.0.3 or is there any dependency?
- Wed, Jul 27, 2016, 11:13 PM@Sonia - Advanced Forums is a fork of Core Forums, so the version we've released may include some updates to Core Forums in version 3.0.4. Specifically, those were https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-53622 and https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-52942. It's possible that the current version of Advanced Forums will still work with Moodle 3.0.3, but that would be outside the scope of our testing and thus you may experience some issues. I'd recommend upgrading to 3.0.4 over a recommendation to change the Core version dependency in Advanced Forums.
- Tue, Aug 23, 2016, 2:00 AMHi! I word with Moodle 3.0.3, but unfortunately I am not able to upgrade to Moodle 3.0.4, only to 3.0.5 or 3.1.1. Considering that you cannot guarantee that your plugin will work properly, what would you recommend? 3.0.3, 3.0.5 or 3.1.1? Thank you very much in advance!
- Tue, Aug 23, 2016, 4:41 AM@Alfonso - Moodle 3.0.4 is the minimum supported version, but you may upgrade to the latest-and-greatest Stable release for Moodle 3.0. In this case, we'd recommend 3.0.5
- Wed, Sep 7, 2016, 4:31 AMGreat, really great plugin, congrats! One question only. Does AF allow for participants to answer via eMail? best
- Tue, Sep 13, 2016, 8:16 PM@Rodrigo - Yes, AvF does support reply by emails.

Federated Amazon Web Services access for your Atlassian users – grant fine grained permissions, using temporary credentials only
Add long-term AWS security credentials (IAM users) once, configure AWS access for Atlassian groups with temporary credentials and fine grained permissions via IAM Policies thereafter (Identity Broker).
Access AWS resources directly via menu links and/or a configurable 'AWS Management Console Login' gadget.
Expose AWS Connectors to requesting users with sufficient permissions and allow retrieval of temporary AWS security credentials based on such connectors (Token Vendor).
More details
+++ NOTE: This add-on is deprecated and superseded by Identity Federation for AWS (JIRA) and Identity Federation for AWS (Bamboo) for technical reasons (existing customers are eligible for free cross upgrades). +++
Integrate AWS into your JIRA and DevOps workflows (Identity Broker/Token Vendor):
- Secure your AWS credentials – store long-term AWS security credentials with industry standard encryption without exposing them to your users (or add-ons).
- Empower your Atlassian users – provide Single Sign-On (SSO) to the AWS Management Console.
- Integrate tailored AWS resources – use the REST API to provision AWS resources based on the Atlassian user name (e.g. a dedicated Amazon S3 bucket or EC2 instance per developer).
- Forget about distributing or revoking AWS credentials – grant fine grained permissions for AWS resources to Atlassian users based on one or few sets of long-term AWS security credentials only.

Pricing details are loading…
Paid-via-Atlassian pricing FAQ
- How does server add-on pricing work?
Server products and add-ons are hosted on your servers. Licenses are perpetual and the purchase price include 12 months of maintenance (support and version updates).
You can renew maintenance after 12 months at 50% of the current purchase price. You can upgrade the tier of your host product and add-on licenses at any time. Upgrade prices are calculated based on Atlassian's formula (view example).
If add-on pricing changes after your initial purchase, there's a 60-day grandfathering period during which you can renew based on the old pricing.
- How do I determine my server pricing tier?
For JIRA Server 7.0 or later, the add-on tier should match the maximum tier of the licensed JIRA applications on your instance. For example, if you're running JIRA Software (50 users) and JIRA Service Desk (10 agents) on the same instance, you should purchase the 50-user tier for add-ons.
For versions of JIRA Server prior to 7.0, the add-on tier should match the licensed user tier for JIRA. Even if fewer users want to use the add-on than your JIRA license, the two licenses should match exactly.
- Do you offer academic, community, or open-source licenses?
For server add-ons, purchase and renewal is half-price if you have an academic license for your Atlassian host application. Server add-ons are always free for community and open-source licenses. Cloud add-ons do not have discounted or free licenses.
For more details about qualifying for special licenses, see here.
- Can I extend my free trial?
For server add-ons, you can extend your add-on trial up to 5 times - in other words, for up to six months. Extend your trial by generating a new evaluation license key from Atlassian Marketplace. Click Try it free and you'll be directed to generate a new license. Paste this license key into the add-on listing in UPM from your Atlassian host application, and you're all set.
- How can I buy add-ons for my legacy JIRA Server or Confluence Server license?
If you own a legacy JIRA Server Unlimited (100+ users) or Confluence Server Unlimited (2000+ users) license purchased in 2012 or earlier, legacy add-on pricing is no longer available. You have two options for add-on purchasing:
- Purchase the add-on at the non-legacy Unlimited (10000+ users) tier.
- Renew your JIRA or Confluence license at a non-legacy tier, then purchase the add-on at the same tier.

Daryl Hannah hasn't exactly been sitting home by herself since she and John F. Kennedy Jr. broke up several weeks ago. First, she was seen having dinner with old flame Jackson Browne in Manhattan's Greenwich Village. Now, a source of ours says he recently spotted the 33-year-old actress on the beach in Malibu—in the company of a "tall, handsome man in his mid-30s." And it was definitely a romantic rendezvous. The source says Hannah and the unidentified man "were all over each other."
Predictably, Hannah's rep declined to discuss any aspect of his client's personal life.
Woody Allen is furious that former companion Mia Farrow seems to have renamed their children. Though she has taken no legal steps, the actress has been addressing their 6-year-old son Satchel by the name Seamus for the past several months, and for more than a year she has referred to Dylan, the adopted 8-year-old daughter whom Farrow accused Allen of molesting in 1992, as Eliza.
According to his publicist, Allen, who no longer has contact with Dylan, continues to call his son Satchel and criticizes Farrow for the name changes, which, the rep claims, "doctors advised her not to do." Farrow's publicist, John Springer, says Farrow changed the names of her two children simply "because she wanted to." Asked whether Farrow did this against the advice of doctors, Springer says, "Maybe that's what the doctors said. But I never heard about it."
Fourteen-year-old Macaulay Culkin may have had a growth spurt during the three-month filming of the upcoming live-action version of the comic Richie Rich, but fans aren't going to be able to tell.
A source close to the movie, which opens nationwide on Dec. 9, promises that Culkin "will not look any different to the moviegoer from one frame to the next," because producers took precautions to be sure that his costumes fit him exactly the same throughout the shoot. "We had extra fabric on hand," says a representative for Ike Behar, the company responsible for designing Culkin's shirts. And they certainly used it: By the time the film wrapped last month, Culkin's arms had grown three-quarters of an inch.
