text: Rick Snyder Democratic mayor to help inaugurate GOP governor By The Associated Press • Dec 27, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Detroit's Democratic mayor will serve as master of ceremonies for the inauguration of Republican Gov. Rick Snyder and Lt. Gov. Brian Calley in Lansing. Mayor Mike Duggan joins Snyder and Calley Jan. 1 at the Capitol. Snyder said in a news release that Duggan "has been a great partner in the effort to reinvent" the state and city. 224 lame-duck bills going to Snyder By The Associated Press • Dec 24, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder is reviewing hundreds of bills approved by the Legislature in the waning days of the lame-duck session. Lawmakers sent the governor 224 bills since the November election. Gov. Snyder to create "Department of Talent and Economic Development" By Rick Pluta • Dec 18, 2014 Governor Rick Snyder plans to sign an executive order this morning to create a new state department with a focus on improving the state's workforce. It will be called the Department of Talent and Economic Development. The Michigan Economic Development Corporation will be moved into it. So will the state's unemployment agency. Governor Snyder says developing talent will give Michigan an edge over other states and countries in attracting employers. Abortion coercion bills clear Michigan Senate By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Dec 12, 2014 Lester Graham / Michigan Radio The Republican-led Michigan Senate has voted to make it a crime to coerce a woman to have an abortion against her will. The legislation would prohibit stalking or assaulting a pregnant woman or anyone else with the intent to force an abortion against her wishes. After learning that a woman does not want an abortion, a person also could not threaten to cut off legally required financial support or withdraw from a contract with her. "Hail to the Nerd?" Is Snyder mulling a 2016 presidential run? By Zoe Clark & Rick Pluta • Dec 12, 2014 Listen Listening... / 4:50 It's Just Politics with Zoe Clark and Rick Pluta, December 12th, 2014 The buzz has begun. Detroit is barely, officially, out of bankruptcy and suddenly the "Snyder for President" coverage begins. The national media is talking up the Nerd as a 2016 contender, "Rick Snyder, the Governor of Michigan, has not gotten the same attention as some of the other GOP governors who are looking at the White House," New York Times political reporter Jonathan Martin told CNN this week. "He is someone who, at the very least, wants to be in the mix for 2016," Martin explained. Kevyn Orr: Detroit's financial emergency over By The Associated Press • Dec 9, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio DETROIT (AP) - Detroit's emergency manager says the city no longer will be in a financial emergency when it officially exits bankruptcy. That means Kevyn Orr's job will be done once the bankruptcy court approves the exit. He's recommending that he relinquish his position as emergency manager. Michigan lawmakers at odds over redefining clean energy By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Dec 8, 2014 Jimmy Emerson / flickr.com Lawmakers are at odds over a bill that would change Michigan's definition of renewable energy to include electricity generated by burning tires, used oil and industrial waste. The Republican-backed legislation is pending in the Senate after it was approved last week on a mostly party-line vote in the House. A little revenge politics at the state House By Zoe Clark & Rick Pluta • Dec 5, 2014 Listen Listening... / 5:00 It's Just Politics with Zoe Clark and Rick Pluta, December 5th, 2014 The state House passed the Michigan Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) yesterday and it's fair to say it was a little dose of Republican Speaker Jase Bolger's "here's-how-bad-it-can-get-if-you-don't-play-along." The RFRA was supposed to move in tandem with a measure that would add protections based on sexual orientation to the state's civil rights law. That was a version that Bolger said he would accept, as long as there was a separate bill that would provide some cover for people who have religious objections to gay rights. But LGBT advocates said there also should be explicit protections for transgender people. Bolger said he wouldn't support that. So, Bolger got the RFRA passed last night, without moving on the LGBT protections, showing the LGBT community just what can happen when you cross him. Gov. Snyder's Asia trip, financial problems for Michigan schools, and cheap land for sale in Detroit By Rina Miller & Jack Lessenberry • Nov 22, 2014 University of Michigan School of Natural Resources & Environment / Flickr This Week in Review, Jack Lessenberry and Rina Miller discuss Gov. Rick Snyder's Asia trip, the financial status of Michigan's schools, and a new plan to sell Detroit land. Listen Listening... / Listen to Jack and Rina discuss this week's top stories in Michigan. Snyder's China trip, concurrent mission cost $424K By The Associated Press • Nov 15, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Gov. Rick Snyder's upcoming trip to China to coax companies to expand in Michigan won't be cheap, but economic development officials say the money is well spent and producing results. The governor's last investment mission to Asia cost $251,000 and a concurrent trade trip totaled $173,000. Expenses included flights, lodging, other travel, meals, gifts and receptions. Nearly $219,000 of the bill for Snyder's trip was covered with money Michigan receives from American Indian casinos' gambling profits. Funding for Michigan road fixes, challenging a Grand Rapids pot law, and what's next for Detroit By Jack Lessenberry & Emily Fox • Nov 12, 2014 USFWS This Week in Michigan Politics, Emily Fox and Jack Lessenberry discuss whether the legislature will be able to come up with a plan to fix Michigan's roads before the end of the year, a challenge to a Grand Rapids law decriminalizing marijuana, and what's next on Detroit's road to recovery.

Michigan Democrats won more votes in some cases, just not the elections By Zoe Clark & Rick Pluta • Nov 7, 2014 Listen Listening... / 5:01 It's Just Politics with Zoe Clark and Rick Pluta A Republican wave on Tuesday. Or was it? In Michigan, there is plenty of evidence that it was not, despite being a very good year for Republicans nationally. More votes, less seats No doubt there were a lot of Republican victories in the races for governor and the Legislature. But Rick Snyder's 51 percent can't be described as a blowout. A lot of the races in swing seats were also quite close. In fact, Democrats actually won more votes in state House races than Republicans. Democrats won more votes but got fewer seats. In the 110 state House races, Democrats won 50.9 percent of the total vote. Republicans in aggregate got 48.9. Yes, Republicans won 63 seats but is 48.9 percent of the vote really a "wave"? Dems win big in education With one exception, Democrats swept the education boards - the state Board of education and the boards for Michigan State, Wayne State and the University of Michigan. That matters because, even though they are elected positions, almost no one knows who these candidates are. That makes these board elections some of the most-reliable measures of core party strength - the stalwart yellow dog Democrats, rock-ribbed Republicans straight party ballot voters. We should note, too, that the one exception is where a Green Party candidate ran a pretty aggressive campaign in the Spartans' home turf of Lansing and East Lansing. That very well may have siphoned off enough votes from the Democrat to tip the race in the other direction. Our interview with Gov. Snyder following re-election By Stateside Staff • Nov 5, 2014 Russ Climie / Tiberius Images Listen Listening... / 7:04 Zoe Clark, co-host of Michigan Radio's It's Just Politics, speaks with Governor Snyder about his reelection victory. The Michigan Republican Party is happy in Michigan and across the country. Governor Snyder says his re-election is confirmation that they've been on the right path and now is the time to accelerate on that path. Governor Snyder said his re-election gives him a strong mandate from the people as a public servant to act on their behalf. One of the first issues he wants to tackle is wrapping up comprehensive transportation funding, and to then improve career tech education to increase employment opportunities for Michiganders. Discussing the race and campaigning, Governor Snyder said he doesn't view himself as a career politician. He says he dislikes the way a lot of politicians behave. Governor Snyder feels a lot of campaigning is too negative and lacks in civility and respect, something he wouldn't put up with in his workplace or family life. With regard to working with the State House and Senate, Governor Snyder says it's not about partisanship, but better work for people. When asked if he was considering running for another office in 2016, Governor Snyder said he was honored being re-elected yesterday by the state of Michigan, but didn't dismiss the thought. *Listen to our conversation with Gov. Snyder above. Election Day losses and victories, low voter turnouts, and the next 4 years By Emily Fox & Jack Lessenberry • Nov 5, 2014 Wikimedia Commons This Week in Michigan Politics, Emily Fox and Jack Lessenberry review Election Day in Michigan including voter turnout, victories and disappointments for both parties, and what yesterday's results could mean for the next four years. Listen Listening... / 3:15 Listen to Jack and Emily discuss this week's events in Michigan politics. Michigan voters reelect Gov. Rick Snyder By Mark Brush • Nov 4, 2014 Wikimedia Commons Gov. Rick Snyder has been reelected to a second term. Snyder was first elected governor in 2010. During Snyder's first term, he oversaw major tax reforms that largely shifted the burden from business to individuals. He also appointed the emergency manager that's ushering Detroit through bankruptcy. Democratic challenger Mark Schauer represented Michigan's 7th Congressional District from 2009-2011. Watch or listen to call-in shows with Michigan candidates for governor, U.S. Senate By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Nov 3, 2014 Over the past few months, Michigan Radio hosted live call-in shows with the candidates for Michigan governor and U.S. Senate. The broadcasts were part of the Michigan Public Radio Network's "Michigan Calling" series of 2014 election specials. Rick Pluta, the Michigan Public Radio Network's state Capitol bureau chief, hosted each hour-long program. Listeners had the choice of calling in or submitting questions via Facebook at "Michigan Calling," or Twitter using the hashtag: #MICalling. You can watch or listen to the programs below. The race for Michigan governor reaches its final hours By Steve Carmody • Nov 3, 2014 The long campaign for Michigan governor comes to an end today. The candidates are making one final push before voters have their say on Election Day on Tuesday. The candidates for governor are both trying to build momentum heading into tomorrow's election. Democrat Mark Schauer spent the weekend riding in a recreational vehicle, traveling from city to city, from the Upper Peninsula to Jackson. He says it's a "blitz to the finish". Can Obama still get Obama voters to the polls? By Zoe Clark & Rick Pluta • Oct 31, 2014 Listen Listening... / 5:00 It's Just Politics with Zoe Clark and Rick Pluta As we head into the last weekend before the election, Rick Snyder and Mark Schauer (and plenty of others) are making their final swings through the state, launching their final push to get out the vote. These final few days are all about reaching voters, the would-be, possible voters and persuading, inspiring them to get to the polls. Democrats Need Excitement There are more registered Democrats in Michigan than Republicans. Michigan is a blue state. But Democrats don't turn out to the polls the way Republicans do, particularly in midterm elections. That's why in the past six presidential cycles, Michigan has voted for the Democratic presidential candidate but why, because they're elected in the midterms, we have a Republican governor, secretary of state, and attorney general. It's toward that end that the D's have a big attraction coming this weekend. President Obama is scheduled to campaign with Schauer and Democratic Senatorial candidate Gary Peters in Detroit on Saturday. Nationwide, many Democrats are avoiding the president, but not here in Michigan. Instead, they're betting the upside of the president's visit will be bigger than the risk. They're hoping that the president can convince the legions that stepped out to support him in 2012 that they need to step out once again in 2014, even if his name is not at the top of the ticket. Candidates making final push before election next week By Jake Neher • Oct 30, 2014 Jake Neher / MPRN Candidates have just a few more days to convince people to show up to the polls next week and vote for them. That means campaigns are beginning their final push. Democratic nominee for governor Mark Schauer is embarking on a statewide campaign tour. He kicked it off by greeting auto workers in Lansing as they got off their shift. Schauer says he is confident in his chances, especially after recent reports show strong numbers in his favor with absentee voters who have already cast their ballots. More and better jobs? By Lester Graham • Oct 30, 2014 Incumbent Republican Governor Rick Snyder has been vague about what he would do in the next four years in office, saying only, "We're on the road to recovery." He also says he'll pursue "more and better jobs." Political observers expect Snyder will continue on the path he's established, working to stimulate businesses while keeping a tight rein on state spending. In an ad, Snyder says, "Our unemployment rate is the lowest in six years with nearly 300,000 new private-sector jobs." Campaign dollars adding up in Michigan governor's race By The Associated Press • Oct 25, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Governor Rick Snyder's re-election campaign raised $2.5 million in the past eight weeks and has about $1.8 million in the final days before the November 4th election. Democratic challenger Mark Schauer's campaign took in $1.6 million and has about $1.4 million. The campaigns filed fundraising reports Friday covering late August through last weekend. The irrational panic about Ebola is more contagious than the virus itself By Jack Lessenberry • Oct 23, 2014 Listen Listening... / 2:53 I seldom laugh out loud at anything I read, but I did at story in the Detroit News yesterday. The headline said: Snyder: Michigan has 1,000 isolation beds for Ebola. That's all the proof I needed that, sure enough, we are all going to die. But before you put on your hazmat suit to walk the dog, I want to let you in on a little secret. We are indeed all going to die, but not of Ebola. I am frightened of many things, but I am not worried about Ebola in the least. If over the air gambling was legal, I'd happily bet anyone that nobody in Michigan is going to die of Ebola, ever. That is, unless they go to West Africa and come in contact with the body fluids of an infected person, and I'm not planning on that this weekend. However, there is something that is hazardous to our emotional and mental health, and that is the appearance of any frightening disease close to an election. More political heavyweights in Michigan, poll updates and 11th hour campaign strategy By Emily Fox & Jack Lessenberry • Oct 23, 2014 Jake Neher / MPRN This Week in Michigan Politics, Emily Fox and Jack Lessenberry discuss what it means for Michigan when big name politicians campaign for local candidates, the outlook for the state's major races, and what political parties are up to as Nov. 4 draws near. Listen Listening... / 3:22 Listen to Jack and Emily discuss this week's events in Michigan politics. Snyder and Schauer both wrong; potential revenue lost to schools is a billion dollars a year By Lester Graham • Oct 23, 2014 Listen Listening... / 4:12 Listen to the podcast/radio version of the story. In the race for governor, few things are disputed more than education funding under Gov. Rick Snyder. Challenger Mark Schauer claims Snyder cut funding by a billion dollars. Snyder has called that a lie and says he's added a billion dollars. They're both sort of right and they're both wrong. "Both sides have truth. Neither is lying, per se," said Mitch Bean. He is a former director of the Michigan House Fiscal Agency. That's a nonpartisan agency within the Michigan House of Representatives. Now he's a consultant and he's been looking at the budgets to try to find out exactly what has happened to money for schools. Michigan Democrats pushing for big voter turnout on Election Day By Steve Carmody • Oct 21, 2014 @billclinton Bill Clinton will be campaigning with Democrats in Flint tomorrow. The former president is just the latest big-name Democrat to push for votes in Michigan. First Lady Michelle Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have made campaign stops in Detroit to rally the Democratic Party base in recent weeks. President Barack Obama is expected to visit Michigan before Election Day. One analyst says Democrats are bringing in big names in an attempt to boost turnout in next month's election. Pimps and traffickers face tougher penalties under new laws By Rick Pluta • Oct 16, 2014 flickr user FatMandy / http://michrad.io/1LXrdJM Governor Rick Snyder has approved new laws to make it easier to prosecute pimps and human traffickers. The legislation is supposed to protect victims of human trafficking from criminal charges. One of the new laws shields children who are trafficked from prostitution charges. Theresa Flores wrote a book about being trafficked as a teenager in metro Detroit. She says protection for victims will encourage them to cooperate with prosecutors to help send traffickers to prison. The future of education spending in Michigan By Stateside Staff • Oct 13, 2014 T.D. Ford / Flickr Listen Listening... / 5:40 The only scheduled joint appearance between Governor Rick Snyder and former Congressman Mark Schauer wrapped up last night. One of the top issues of the debate was education. If you turn on a television, there's no escaping the "dueling teacher" campaign ads for Snyder and Schauer. Schauer's ads feature teachers saying Governor Snyder slashed $1 billion from school funding. Snyder's ads feature teachers who say Snyder's been great for schools, that he's increased K-12 state funding every year he's been in office. John Bebow is president of the non-partisan Center for Michigan. Bebow says let's stop talking about the past and, instead, look ahead to the future of education spending. It's Just Politics breaks down the gubernatorial debate By Stateside Staff • Oct 13, 2014 Jose Juarez / AP; timesunion Listen Listening... / 8:38 Republican Governor Rick Snyder and Democratic challenger Mark Schauer met yesterday evening in their only debate. The two were asked about the economy, taxes and education funding. Rick Pluta and Zoe Clark are co-hosts of Michigan Radio's It's Just Politics. Analyzing Sunday's debate between Governor Rick Snyder and Democratic challenger, Mark Schauer By Jack Lessenberry • Oct 13, 2014 Listen Listening... / 2:41 Virtually everyone in Michigan politics, including those who write about it, is analyzing last night's debate between Governor Rick Snyder and his Democratic challenger, Mark Schauer. Both sides put their own spin on this debate even before it was over. I've seen a lot of debates in my time, live or recorded, including every presidential debate in the modern era. I have some thoughts on this one. But I wanted to start with an observation that you might think comes out of left field. Shortly after the debate, I was copied on an e-mail letter a fellow named Kenneth Hreha sent to an anchorman at one of Detroit's TV networks. I was struck by these lines: Hreha said, "The incumbent Rick Snyder didn't even have the common courtesy to come professionally dressed in a suit and tie, a true reflection of the laziness of this man and the public policies that hurt working people." Now, Hreha is scarcely neutral. He voted for Snyder four years ago, but since has come to hate him. He was laid off from a job working for the state, and the only job he's been able to find since pays less and has no benefits. But aside from that, do citizens want a governor who looks like them or one who shows up dressed like an authority figure? Originally, I thought Snyder's casual style a big plus in today's world. Now, I'm not so sure. I know that after Mark Schauer did one commercial casually dressed, one of the elder statesmen of the Democratic Party yelled at him, saying he needed to wear a dark suit and look like the citizens expect a man in charge to look. Watch or listen to the Snyder v. Schauer town hall debate By Anthony Brown • Oct 13, 2014 Gov. Snyder's office, and Schauer campaign. Watch the only debate in the 2014 Michigan governor's race below. The one-hour, town-hall-style debate took place between Republican Gov.

Scope and content note
Series Descriptions
Box and Folder List:
The Committee for Progressive Legislation began when Kay Dingle, a wife and mother living in Delmar, New York, took the initiative to create a religious liberal voice that would bring attention to social issues important to many New Yorkers. She organized a group of Unitarian women to discuss ways in which they could be effective in supporting or opposing state legislation. They would raise a religious liberal voice in politics by enlisting other members of the Albany and Schenectady First Unitarian Universalist Societies and working together with other organizations interested in dealing with social problems. That group of women became the Committee for Progressive Legislation.
In 1969, the organization became widely known for lobbying in favor of the repeal of New York State's abortion law, which dated back to the early nineteenth century. The group's main concerns were abortion, welfare rights, and the attack on separation of church and state. As time passed however they discovered that trying to tackle several issues at once was difficult and they began to concentrate mainly on the repeal of New York State's abortion law and state funds for family planning clinics.
Members of the Committee for Progressive Legislation donated their time telephoning legislators, designing posters, and conducting research to support their stance on social issues. Political workshops were held training members and other volunteers to be effective lobbyists as well as in dealing with disadvantaged communities. Lobbying sessions were also held in which members learned about legislative bills and how to find legislative allies.
After the amendment of New York's abortion law in April 1970 the group focused on family planning issues. In their correspondence to legislators, members advocated state sponsored family planning clinics. They also lobbied the state to pay abortion fees for low-income women.
In 1977 as membership and commitment to the issues dwindled the group elected to disband.
This collection contains the papers of the Committee for Progressive Legislation from 1950-1993. It follows the group from its origins as the project of a member of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Albany. The collection documents the organization's activity in lobbying the New York State Legislature for various social issues, but shows their main interests were repealing the New York State abortion law and advocating family planning. Included in the collection are administrative files, records of the group's legislative interests, and research of social issues.
Documentation on family planning matters as well as other social welfare issues is abundant in the collection. The numerous news clippings on abortion rights and family planning articles as well as the correspondence between chairperson Kay Dingle and New York State legislators is a strong point of the collection. The legislative correspondence gives an idea of the lobbying methods of the Committee for Progressive Legislation as well as their stance on specific bills.
The collection does not give any specific information on the personal lives of the committee members or the effect that their passionate involvement in the organization had on their family lives. One letter does imply that a group member resigned due to pressure from her husband, but not much additional information is available. Founding member Kay Dingle's last correspondence with the organization was from her Arizona home on May 10, 1993. This letter can be found in Series 2: Issue Files.
Series 1: Administrative Files, 1969-1978, .55 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically by subject.
This series includes information on the Committee for Progressive Legislation's first administrative year, including the proposal for organization within the First Unitarian Universalist Society of Albany. The series contains organizational bulletins beginning in 1969. The bulletins contain information for members and other interested parties in relation to lobbying events and meetings. Their newsletter bulletins inform their followers of what issues they were currently working on as well as what their direction for the following month would be. This series also contains several membership lists, photographs of group members at events, as well as financial records. Unfortunately the financial documents are very scarce, however they do reveal administrative personnel problems. Also in this series is a sparse but informative file of the group's meeting minutes. The minutes reveal the anticipated future of the organization over the years. Much of the correspondence between Committee for Progressive Legislature members consists of offering solutions to the various organizational disagreements and problems. The decisions reached by Chairperson Kay Dingle are documented, along with other membership information, in the organization's newsletters.
The position papers in this series give an in-depth view of why the group decided to promote their views on specific social concerns. The series also contains several reports, two of which are based on interviews with representatives of the New York State Department of Health in 1969 the first official year of the organization's existence.
Series 2: Issue Files, 1950-1978, .40 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically by subject.
This series contains numerous news clippings on various social issues. Although typical citizens of Albany, clergymen, and politicians all offer opinions in the news clippings, the files concentrate mostly on the views and actions of politicians and clergymen.
Correspondence in this series includes efforts by Kay Dingle to enlist supporters for the organization including a letter written in 1950. The letter was written in support of the Chief of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Albany Medical Center Hospital who expressed his concern about women using any new abortion law as a method of family planning. This early letter gives insight into Mrs. Dingle's plans for the Committee for Progressive Legislation. Other correspondence includes differing views on abortion and family planning. The numerous news clippings illustrate points of view about family planning and population control during the 1970s in Albany, New York.
This series also contains information on the Social Welfare subcommittee with-in the Committee For Progressive Legislation. This file provides subcommittee minutes as well as analyses on urban conditions of poor families.
Series 3: Legislative Files, 1966-1978, Arranged alphabetically by subject.
This series consists of legislative correspondence, information on legislative bills as well as lobbying efforts. The strong point of this series is the sizeable amount of correspondence to legislators. These letters demonstrate the nature of relationships between legislators and lobbying groups. An alliance with Mary Anne Krupsak, an assemblywoman from the 104th district of Albany-Schenectady and Montgomery counties, seemed especially important to the Committee for Progressive Legislation. Also present in this series is information about the committee's lobbying techniques as well as in-depth information on the New York State legislative process.

Nice blog, thank you. Naples is not as pretty as other Italian cities, that's for sure. The streets with the laundry and all the trash, it seems like the city is not really concerned about attracting tourists...whatever. Glad you worked on your reservations, and hopefully the Italian trains will improve the further north you go.

We stuffed ourselves totally full then headed to the center of Naples to explore. Central Naples is full of street stalls, hanging laundry, and giant piles of trash. Apparently, the mafia controls the waste removal services, and they seem to be holding it hostage. Upon further research, we found out that there was a "trash emergency" declared in 1994, which was resolved in 2009. They think the problem has been resolved! We beg to differ. Getting rid of the trash would be a compelling reason to pay the mob. Despite all the trash, Naples has a good energy. And it smells like fish everywhere, which adds to the fun.
We found some cool stuff in the street stalls for really cheap.
The three of us climbed up a big hill to reach Castel Sant' Elmo to get some nice views of the city. The views were really beautiful in the setting sun, so we spent some time sitting on a bench near the top of the hill.
We woke up at 6 AM on Sunday morning (5-22) to catch the metro to the central train station. Metro number 1 took a little while to show up, which made us pretty nervous, but we made it to the connecting station with a little over an hour to catch the connecting metro and get on the train to Rome.
The train to Rome was pretty interesting in and of itself-- there were two really really really smelly guys sharing our compartment. We decided that they must be homeless, but they were really polite! Helped us hoist our bags, smiled courteously, made plenty of room for us, and defended us against some crazy lady that tried to steal our seats. Actually, they bullied everyone who tried to come into the compartment, including those with seat reservations... but it worked out pretty well for us!

Over the past two seasons, Stanford Football has gone through a lot of turmoil. It started with the loss of Coach Harbaugh to the NFL which was followed by star quarterback Andrew Luck being drafted No. 1 last season by the Indianapolis Colts.
While the offense will have to be reshaped, and will likely focus on running back Stepfan Taylor more, the defensive line will be as solid as ever.
Last season this line gave up only 84.4 rushing yards per game, sixth in the country, and had three sacks per game which was good for 11th nationally.
This article will tell you everything you need to know about Stanford's defensive line for the 2012 season.

Future of Gocco??
On 30, Jan 2009 | No Comments | In Design Life, Letterpress/Printmaking, Think Green | By Lorraine
Just a quick post since I was poking around on the internet before grabbing my lunch. It looks like getting a Thermofax machine is the best way to keep gocco-ing now that the supplies are cut off? I'll have to check into this. In any case, Craft Chi has a great tutorial on how to use one with thermofax screens. In any case, this method would let me print larger than the B6 size, so it might be worth it anyways. (And it's a Greener option: no throw-away bulbs each time.) The other idea I'm toying with is experimenting with screwing regular bulbs into the housing unit and seeing if that will expose a photo-emulsion coated screen mounted to a permanent frame.
In any case, I have plenty of time to think about it: I've stocked up on about 10 boxes of bulbs.
Coming soon: more posts from my DC trip!

Gocco Fabric Screen Issues Part II
On 24, Oct 2008 | No Comments | In Design Life | By Lorraine
Alas! I think my first attempt at burning a screen is now officially a flop. When I left off my tale, I had attempted to burn my first screen: a PG-702 fabric screen flashed in 2 sections. The first section appeared to work best, but on closer inspection (Thanks, Violet!) I noticed that the carbon from my photocopy had adhered to the emulsion on the screen. The second section didn't look like it had burned through all the way to me.
So after everyone's suggestions, I thought I might as well try making a print from a test area like Elaine suggested: afterall, maybe it worked fine like Tina mentioned. So first I tried to clean off the carbon per Jan's instructions. The flickr discussion group also suggested either screen cleaner or turpentine. I opted for trying the screen cleaner because I didn't have any turpentine on hand. Unfortunately, that didn't seem to do the trick:
So I attempted a test print anyways, but sadly nothing came through on either the half with the carbon on the screen or the bottom half. :- And then, when I went to clean the ink off, I tried to use the screen cleaner on fabric ink instead of soap/water right away. So by the time I tried water, I had a harder time getting it off:
By the time I got the ink off, the exposed part of the screen looked like it has haze. 🙁 I wasn't able to photograph it well, and haven't had time to go back and look at it since. Suffice it to say, I gave up trying to print this one. Even if it is ruined, the screen's not a total loss though: at the Very least, I plan to use the frame again.
But I just don't know what went wrong. I photocopied it on a light setting, ironed it right before flashing, and hypothetically, it Should have printed Something. It looked like Some of the image at least burned correctly. I think I'll have to go back to square one and reread my Gocco Guide again before another attempt. And this time I'll probably try a regular B6 screen before attempting one of the fabric ones.
But enough of the problems, I'll be posting the results of the t-shirts soon: because they did turn out great after all.

Gocco Fabric Screen Issues
On 18, Oct 2008 | No Comments | In Design Life | By Lorraine
So I was hoping that my first post about this would be a success story, but alas! I ran into problems with my first screen. A couple of months ago, I bought a used Gocco B6 off of eBay since they have discontinued them. This weekend was my first chance to finally use it, and while it may have been a bit too ambitious, I decided that a t-shirt for my sister and I to wear to a concert later this week would be a good first project. Once I have them printed, I'll post about it, but first want to ask if anyone has any advice.
Using the PG-702 fabric screens, I flashed my image in sections like you're supposed to. The first flash turned out great:
The second flash is just slightly visible, and obviously hasn't burned all the way through:
I'm thinking this may have been because I had to tape my image together in sections:
So what do I do now? Can I just realign the screen with my master art and re-flash that section? Or do I have to trash the screen and start all over? Any thoughts?
UPDATE: After Violet's comment, I just went and took a closer look at the screen. It appears that the first flash Does have some carbon on it. So I'll have to research how to get that off the screen…I know I was just reading about that somewhere… However, I'm still not sure everything burned through on the second flash, so I'll try to do a small test section to see how it prints before trying to re-flash anything. Don't want to waste those bulbs!

8 Things to Come
On 13, Jun 2009 | No Comments | In Design Life, Updates | By Lorraine
Wow: a lot has happened in the past month. After finding out I was accepted to a special opportunity (more on that in a later post), I spent almost all of May preparing for a big move to Chicago. I have now been here for almost a week and can finally consider myself settled in for the summer. So aside from my Social Networking Duties for AIGAKC, I took a break from blogging, etc. When Linden tagged me on her 8 Things Post, I thought it would be a great way to get back into the swing of writing and let you know what's ahead for the summer. You can expect to see a lot more from me again…both here and on S&D.
Without further ado, my 8 Things:
8 Things I Am Looking Forward To:
- Exploring Chicago. While here, I fully expect to take advantage of being in a big city, and plan on blogging my finds. First stop is Lincoln Square later today.
- German Culture. Chicago has a lot more German restaurants, places to get ethnic foods, and German sections in a lot of the bookstores. I've already found myself some German honey and nutella: yum!
- Personal Projects. While here, I'm hoping to have more time to devote to several personal projects, including…
- Site Redesign. It's long over-due, but I finally have the resources to put it in action.
- AIGAKC Leadership Retreat. I'll have to attend from afar, but I can't wait to hear what everybody learned out at Portland's Leadership Retreat several weeks ago. I'll be sure to share any thoughts both here and over on AIGAKC's Discussions.
- June 22. More on this in the next post 😉
- July 15. The next Harry Potter movie comes out…what can I say? I'm a nerd.
- Mid-July. The family is taking a vacation to California: you get to come along with me and my camera. I'm especially looking forward to the redwood trees.
8 Things I Did Yesterday:
- Continued letting friends/colleagues know I was in Chicago. (Are You, dear reader, here? Let me know!)
- Contacted people about freelance opportunities.
- Updated my Creative Hotlist and AIGA profiles to say I was in Chicago.
- Ate a delicious PB&H sandwich with deutsche Honig: yum! (not sure why German honey tastes so much better than our's…)
- Took a brief look at Lincoln Square: made note to come back.
- Added to and checked things off of my Monstrous-Summer-To-Do List.
- Took the Brown Line downtown.
- Went to Bluesfest with my cousin and friends.
8 Things I'd Like To Do (just a handful from the MSTD List):
- Finish putting together all of my photo albums
- Redesign this website
- Finish sketches/designs for gocco projects
- Finish designs for embroidery ideas
- Take my sketchbook to Millennium Park for a day
- Read Watership Down
- Upload new work to Flickr and blog about it.
- Locate the German sausage shop my friend mentioned and have a cook-out
8 Shows (and Podcasts) I Watch/Listen To:
- Pushing Daisies (so mad they cancelled this show…but at least they are airing the last of the last 3 episodes tonight)
- Samantha Who (again: why did they cancel it??)
- Lost
- Dancing With the Stars
- Gestalten.tv (video podcast with interviews and documentaries with current artists/designers)
- Paul Rand Lecture Series (video podcast hosted by Steven Heller on graphic design art history)
- Design Matters (podcast hosted by Debbie Millman featuring interviews with designers)
- Animation Podcast (podcast featuring interviews with legendary animators)
8 Blogs to Read:
(ok, I switched this from tagging since I just really wanted to make recommendations)
- Linden's Pensieve (everything from marathon training to German living to techie insight)
- Sarah Jo Austin (techie insight, crafts, and the other half of the brains behind The True Beginner's Guide to Twitter)
- Carina's Craftblog (crafts and diy culture)
- Celestina Carmen (crafts, book rec's, diy culture)
- The Design Cubicle (articles on freelancing/client issues, great inspiration and links)
- Raw Toast Design (blog of fellow Missouri State grad, Jesse Kuhn, featuring his illustrations)
- Design Work Life (new favorite design inspiration blog)
- Anything Goes (great inspiration/new work from art director, Kat Black)

Passions: How to Put Them to Use?
On 17, Feb 2009 | No Comments | In Design Life | By Lorraine
This post may be totally off-topic, but I just needed to put it out there because perhaps others struggle with the same issue. So I've been having a bit of a quarter-life crisis (to quote John Mayer) on and off for the past year. And in helping my sister make some decisions about whether she should double-major, I seem to have thrown myself back into indecision about my own future.
You see, I've always had a hard time narrowing down my passions into a career path. How do you know what you are "supposed" to do? My friends and family are probably tired of me wondering that over the past ten years or so (if you're reading, sorry to bombard you with it again). Basically it comes down to this: I'm passionate about many things…none of which really seem to interrelate.
For one thing, I'm immensely passionate about design: one of the reasons why I started this blog and have gotten involved with our local AIGA chapter. I love book design and would love to one day work at a publishing company. Screen-printing and letterpress open so many options not available in digital technologies, and I can't wait to explore all of the ideas bouncing around my head. Likewise, I've noticed I have a totally different aesthetic in my approach to web-design, and want to learn more, more, more.
Similarly, I'm absolutely and totally in love with animation—have been since I was about 5. I could bore you with long rants about how Sleeping Beauty is one of the most perfect films of all time. Listening to the Animation Podcast episodes and reading blogs like Animation Treasures or Colorful Animation Expressions are enough to have me ready to go back to school. But I really am in love with traditional 2D animation (and maybe claymation), so it's hard to find outlets for that in the current industry. (Unless James Baxter is hiring right now…I would kill to meet him and pick his brain over a cup of coffee.)
On a totally unrelated note, I'm a (not-so-) secretly reformed science nerd. Sitting at our brother's Regional Science Olympiad tournament, my sister and I were discussing what was wrong with the two of us for not going into something that we both obviously loved to do. Chemistry/geology…I can't get enough of both of them—even now. And after coaching my brother for the past several months of tournament season, I'm ready to go spelunking. I think I almost died of happiness just visiting the Rock/Mineral section of the Natural History Museum in D.C. last month. The discovery that there are actually people who do forensic qualitative analysis to determine the make-up of pigments used in illuminated manuscripts was almost enough to drive me back to a college admissions office. (Btw, art history is another of my favorite subjects…)
Yet another interest of mine is linguistics: specifically European languages. If you've read my blog for very long, you'll know I'm a German-phile. After taking German since middle-school, I found that I missed it too much in college and had to add it as a minor. If I had known that the field of linguistic anthropology existed, I probably would have switched my major. Luckily, an internship over seas with a German design firm allowed me to combine the 2 passions…and I never fail to get energized by the reunions we've had every year since. Particularly because all of us are from such diverse educational backgrounds. Each year, I come back wanting to educate others about German-American relations. Currently, I'm trying (slowly!) to teach myself Czech so I can better articulate my appreciation for the kolač. 😉
Mind you, this is all very much an internal conflict, so no need to worry about me making drastic life changes. (And short of designing a German book based on an animated film about the rock cycle, I doubt I'll ever be able to use all my passions at once.) But I often ponder just how things might be different if I had gone to college for a very different path… But what all of this has taught me is that it's perfectly okay—if not necessary—to have interests outside of your line of work. They give you inspiration, motivation, and a unique perspective to approach it with. Milton Glaser addressed my classmates and I during a college trip to NYC. The biggest thing I took away from that talk was him saying how important it was to have interests outside of design: how it will fuel your creativity. He then followed that up with the advice to "always be astonished by what you see around you." I think about that quote a lot: you don't have to eat, breath, and sleep one thing for the rest of your life. There is so much wonder in the world and so much to be passionate about.

Design Resolutions for 2009
On 12, Jan 2009 | No Comments | In Design Life | By Lorraine
I don't usually make formal New Year's Resolutions (our family writes down predictions for the coming year instead), but thought it might be fun to set some goals for myself about various projects I want to tackle this year. So now that January is underway, and I've had a bit of a chance to think it over, here's a running list of my Art/Design Resolutions for 2009:
- Get More Creative With Photoshop for Client-work
With the type of clients that I have at work, I tend to work mainly in Illustrator and InDesign. If I do use Photoshop, it's mainly just for photo-retouching. So this year, I want to branch out a bit more like I started to this past fall, and be a bit more well-rounded in my software usage.
- Delve Deeper into Web-design/Coding
I haven't had much of a chance to do work for the web since starting my job 2 years ago. So I want to refresh my knowledge of html, etc. to bring me to…
- Finally Get the Portfolio Site Back Online
I've been toying around with this site's redesign since last summer, but want to finally finish it. Since deciding to do it all in WordPress in November, I've just stopped working on it.
- Start Carrying a Sketchbook Again
I used to keep a little one in my purse and use it regularly, but stopped for some reason. I need to draw more and get my ideas down as soon as I get them. The Brushes app I included in last week's Weekly Reader should be a fun way to sketch more too. Which brings me to…
- Complete at Least One Personal Project a Month
Now that I've got all the kinks worked out on how to use my Gocco machine, I want to keep it busy! Not to mention the embroidery project I began 2 years ago last March and Still haven't finished… I know I get busy with work, but I need to make the time for fun projects.
- Expand My Art/Design Reference Library
Something that I started last year was using any money I get in a bonus, etc. from work to expand my art/design reference book library. (although most of my extra income went to my new computer this past year…) I started this year off right by cashing in my "kool-aid points" from JupiterImages to get Print Liberation. I'll be sure to write a review once it gets in.

The Making of 2008's Holiday Card
On 07, Jan 2009 | No Comments | In Design, Design Life, Illustration, New Work | By Lorraine
Well, as I mentioned yesterday, here is a little more about how this year's cards were produced. In addition to taking me two years to finish, I also ran into a couple of snags. Below each picture are details explaining each stop along the way.
- 1) As I mentioned in yesterday's post, I was really inspired by Rankin Bass's Rudolf special: specifically, the opening titles where the swirling snow blows across the screen. It has such a nice texture to it, but unfortunately, I was unable to find any good screen shots for reference. I ended up watching the DVD in frame-by-frame while frantically sketching notes for the linocut background.
- 2) The finished linoleum cut (inked to show relief) for the background of the card. This was originally going to be the second color printed.
- 3) I then prepared my master for the gocco screen. This time, I printed it using a laser printer instead of a photocopier. When I ironed it before flashing, a fair amount of carbon lifted up as you see here: was feeling good about this.
- 4) I then flashed the master which contained the first layer, the top text layer, and the copyright info for the back of the cards: 3 screens in one! Unfortunately, using the blue screen and all of the ironing wasn't quite enough because I still ended up with carbon burned onto the screen. To remove it, I gently rubbed a little bit of carcoal lighter fluid on the back of the screen as suggested by the Gocco Flickr group…
- 5) …it worked! A test print of the whole screen showed it burned successfully!
- 6) Rather than buying Gocco's mixing cones, I instead mixed my ink in little snack-sized Ziploc bags: this had the added advantage of being reseal-able when I wasn't using them. A little snip in the corner, and the ink came out as if in a pastry bag.
- 7) This was my first time using the ink blocking material, and it worked like a dream.
- 8 ) The first layer printed like a dream in silvery-gold (get it? Silver and Gold…) on the creamy, slightly textured stock I had picked out from Paper Source. Alas! When I tried to print the linocut layer in white on top of it, it didn't show up at all. Despite getting the more opaque metallic white, it was still too transparent. So I rethought my color palette and paper choice, scrapped the first layer, and ended up printing just the linocut on a nice metally silver cardstock from XPEDX.
- 9) The text layer on the front came next, and unfortunately not many cards turned out well. I had a lot of trouble with "peaking" which I suspect came from having too much ink on the screen. I readjusted the ink amount for the copyright info on the back, and that layer turned out perfect.
- 10) Lining the cards up for drying on the counter since I didn't have a little rack to stick them in. All in all, I printed around 30 or so cards and each layer only took me about an hour and a half each night—including clean up.
- 11) A look at my registration "system": I positioned a test card under the screen and then used painter's masking tape to mark off each side. This worked pretty slick, but my pad needs to be upgraded as it doesn't have it's stickiness any more, so the cards had trouble staying put. Luckily it didn't prove to be much of an issue, but I'm hunting around for a replacement part…
So there you go! A successful printing experience, and now I can't wait to start on the other projects I have up my sleeves!

A Holiday Card Two Years in the Making
On 06, Jan 2009 | No Comments | In Design Life, Illustration, New Work, Typography, Updates | By Lorraine
Aaaand, I'm back! Well, that was a nice little vacation, so now that the holidays are over and (most) everyone received their card from me, I can finally post about them without spoiling the surprise. I may be going about this a little backwards, but am going to post the final product today and the making-of tomorrow once I get the rest of my process photos uploaded to my computer.
Last year, I began work on a linoleum cut for my holiday card design, but wasn't able to finish it in time to send out. This year, I picked back up where I left off and added a screen-printed layer using my new Gocco (finally: a successful screen!). But more on that tomorrow. For now, here she is:
The cards were printed with Speedball's block printing ink in metallic white with a navy Gocco ink I mixed for the lettering on a silver cardstock. I was inspired by two family favorites for Christmas: Rankin Bass's Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer TV special and White Christmas. It just doesn't feel like the holidays without everyone gathering to watch those two films together. (Of course, we practically have a whole movie fest to watch all of our favorites, but these two especially.)

Wednesday's Weekly Reader: Printmaking in Small Spaces
On 11, Dec 2008 | No Comments | In Design Life, Inspiration, Letterpress/Printmaking | By Lorraine
So I had a lot of fun things that popped up in my feed this past week, but thought I'd share some resources instead. You see, I'm getting ready to print my Christmas cards this Sunday, so I thought it might be nice to share a bit on how I'm going to do it before I post my process post on the card itself.
Using Gocco for Screen Printing
For two of the screens/layers of the card, I'll be screen printing. When I graduated from college a couple of years ago, I was really bummed to lose access to our awesome Print Lab. It's a little hard to screen-print something as large as the poster my friend, Robyn, is working on below (BEFORE) when you have to do it in your apartment. Then I found Gocco (AFTER):
Obviously, I won't ever be doing anything as big as Robyn's poster unless I do it in sections, but I really don't need to. And with the Gocco, I don't have to worry about emulsion or power washers or table space: the unit exposes the screen and prints the image. On the downside, they've discontinued making them and their supplies. However, I believe that between all the resourceful gocco-ers out there, we'll find alternatives. Below are some of the resources that I've found really helpful in learning how:
- Gocco Flickr Group (the discussion threads are particularly helpful)
- Gocco-Printers Yahoo Group (Joining this is a must: an excellent way to locate supplies, get expert help, or download templates, etc.)
- NEHOC Australia (all instructions given in English, as well as a list of produced supplies/accessories)
- DIYLife's Gocco article (although some of these links are now broken, it still has great info on where to find supplies/tutorials/etc.)
- Celestina Carmen (Good inspiration and awesome tips: thanks for sharing your expertise, Tina!)
Relief Printing by Hand
For the relief plate, I'm working on a linocut that I will then print at home. This should be relatively easy as I printed most of the Incidents Among the Savages illustrations at home. I actually came across a really good How-To for creating and printing linoleum cuts at home via Coudal's feed today. The National Gallery of Canada has a little microsite up for their exhibition of Albrecht Dürer's prints. (While there, be sure to check out the Gallery of Dürer's work: he is near the top, if not THE top, of my favorite artists of all time. His attention to detail in his engravings/prints is just mind-boggling.)
To locate the tutorial, click "Looking Forward" under Dürer's name and then select "Linocut Printmaking: How To" to view. Each step is accompanied by a photo and instructions. However, rather than printing using my fist, I generally rub the paper with either the back of a wooden spoon or a baren. Since I'm printing at home, I plan on using the water-based block-print ink rather than oil based. I perfer oil, but have had a hard time finding the variety in color that I need at local stores, and figure the water-based will make clean up easier anyways. (Besides, some people don't like that oil-based inks are toxic…)

Ben Folds T-shirts
On 26, Oct 2008 | No Comments | In Design Life, New Work | By Lorraine
So as promised, I'm posting how the Ben Folds shirts turned out. First, a little background. Back when I was in college, I was able to see Ben live for the first time when he performed on our campus. He had these awesome tour shirts at the time with his face and "Rock This Bitch" on them to commemorate his live tour. (For the backstory on that particular song, click here.) Alas! They were out of my size! In the years since, my sister and I have scoured the internet, but have never even so much as found a reference photo. With his concert approaching this past week, we decided to use my new gocco to create our own version of the shirts. I drew his head in Illustrator using a past tour shirt and his photo for reference (see below). It promised to be the perfect test design because I included a variety of line weights, a couple of large solid blocks for his hair, and a nice slab serif font at the bottom.
After a couple of months of reading up on instructions/tips, I felt I had a good grasp on what I was doing when burning the screen. I photocopied my design on the lightest setting, ironed it using several pieces of computer paper (perhaps I needed to use the Clean-Up Paper for it to work?), immediately lined it up on the printing bed, and flashed both sections using the Blue Screen with the emulsion-side of the screen down touching the master copy. (Note: in the photos above, we didn't manage to capture a photo of the flash, but both bulbs did work on each section of the screen.) As posted before (here and here), it obviously didn't work for some reason… And on a side question, do you have to reverse your type for a gocco screen? I didn't think you did since the image looks correct through the machine's window, but then I started confusing myself thinking about it after the screen was already ruined…
So not wanting all that time spent to be for nothing, I figured I'd transfer the design onto some nice, thick stock I keep around for stencils. (Besides, we got some really cute long-sleeve tees from Target that I didn't want to go to waste.) I had to modify the design a bit so that the stencil would be all one piece. After tacking it down to the shirt using double stick tape (the insides of the glasses were sparate stencils I taped down at the same time), I painted in the design using some fabric ink I had around the house. I think they turned out rather nicely if I do say so myself, and if I get a better photo of the finished product, I'll post it. Sadly, my late-night photos didn't show up all too well above, but at least you get the idea. The concert was great, and the shirts were a hit!

Gill, Jas and Howse, John and Kent, Stuart and Taylor, John (2000) Projections in Venn-Euler Diagrams. In: Proc. IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages (VL2000), 09/10/2000 - 09/13/2000, Seattle, WA, USA. (doi:10.1109/VL.2000.874375) (Full text available)

Venn diagrams and Euler circles have long been used to express constraints on sets and their relationships with other sets. However, these notations can get very cluttered when we consider many closed curves or contours. In order to reduce this clutter, and to focus attention within the diagram appropriately, the notion of a projected contour, or projection, is introduced. Informally, a projected contour is a contour that describes a set of elements limited to a certain context. Through a series of examples, we develop a formal semantics of projections and discuss the issues involved in introducing these.

The state House finance committee will once again consider State Representative Dave Reed's bill that would eliminate the so called "Delaware loophole." Reed says the bill would lower the tax burden of all Pennsylvania's businesses. The bill targets only those businesses that avoid paying state taxes by funneling their profits through other states with little or not business taxes, such as Delaware.
Reed has said it gives businesses a "fair and competitive playing field." House Majority Leader Mike Turzai points to Pennsylvania's March unemployment rate of 7.9 percent, saying it is too high and something needs to be done to make improvements to the state's business climate. Turzai says Reed's bill would not only eliminate the Delaware Tax Loophole but would also enact what he calls "necessary reforms" to the state's business tax structure. Those actions include providing a schedule to remove the cap on net operating loss deductions.
Turzai says the bill would cut the corporate net income tax rate from 9.99 percent to 6.99 percent over a period of six years starting in the year 2014. The bill will be considered by the House Finance Committee at 11 a.m. today.

Court Slaps Down California's Attempt to Control Tribal Lending
Indian country saw a landmark victory last month in California v. Miami Nation Enterprises, et. al, which ruled against the state of California in favor of two tribal online lenders, the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma and the Santee Sioux Nation of Nebraska.
The California Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of a suit by the State of California against online lenders owned by the two federally recognized Indian tribes who were represented by Fredericks Peebles & Morgan. The suit was an attempt by the state to shut down the sovereign tribes' online lending businesses and impose penalties for alleged failure to comply with the California laws governing short-term loans.
This case comes in the wake of a series of other states' efforts to shut down various tribal lending operations around the country. States have mounted campaigns to restrict and control tribal lending operations in their state even though federally recognized Indian tribes are not subject to state laws in general and are regulated primarily through Federal Indian law. This issue has gained widespread publicity around the country in the last several months.
This California case has now re-affirmed that federally recognized Indian Tribes are sovereign nations, not subject to state control. The court decision will significantly impact other states and other Tribes throughout the country as the issue of tribal sovereignty has been under attack on many fronts over the last several years.
In this case, California claimed that loans made by the tribes are not enforceable under California law because the tribes are not licensed in California and the loan fees exceed California's enforceable rates.
In a ruling issued on January, 21, 2014 the Court of Appeals rebuffed the state's claims, finding that the tribes' lending activities "are subject to tribal laws governing interest rates, loans and cash advance services," and that California's lending laws are not enforceable against the tribal lenders. The Court went on to find that "there can be little question" that the tribally owned lenders "function as arms of their respective tribes" and therefore are not subject to California's jurisdiction.

Jennifer Love Hewitt's Body Is Built For The Bandage Dress At 'Client List' Launch Party (Photos)

Her show centers on a down-on-her-luck wife and mother who winds up working for a high-end prostitution service. Hewitt promises there will be a lot of steamy scenes on the program. She told Maxim, "We have a lot of really fun things in the series eye-candy-wise for our audience."
The show, based on the made-for-television movie, premieres Sunday, April 8, at 10/9 central.

My DD is almost 12 months old...THANKS, Ladies, for playing a key role in helping us make it this far! And she has always been a little disinterested in purees/solids...she could take them or leave 'em. During the week of Christmas I was off of work and she had NO interest in eating purees/solids given by me when she had been previously doing three small meals a day. Is that normal at this age? To only want to eat solids when Mommy isn't around?
Also, I thought having a week with her strictly nursing would increase my supply but it has done the complete opposite. She normally takes between 12-15 ounces while I am away for 11 hours a day. I can barely get 10 ounces together for her in one day's time and four pumping sessions. I thought I might be pregnant, but that is negative (phew!...for now). Should I even worry about attempting to increase my supply if I will be trying to pump wean sometime between 12-18 months? Should I just start adding cow's milk to make up the difference? How do other working women do this? Do most continue pumping during the entire second year? My work has been EXTREMEMLY understanding when it comes to pumping but I am now having to pump more to get less then what I did before and I can see this becoming a problem for my work environment which is very fast paced.
Finally, should I be concerned that the only thing she is interested in eating are those Cheddar Gerber poof chz doodle things, cheerios, egg yolks (when can you introduce the whites?), and animal crackers. She is addicted to them! These are just about the only things she wants to eat...should I be concerned? I am so at a loss...
NOTE: Even if she does not eat them, we ALWAYS offer her SOMETHING at ever meal (i.e. cooked diced carrots, shredded chicken, cut up banana, cubed cheese, etc). Out of desperation and her interest, she has had grilled cheese and cheese pizza diced up. What is her deal with bread products!? Are we doing something wrong?
Thank you for your help!
