State-Wide Indian Drug Prevention Program
The program is a drug prevention program, designed to combine a social learning
based intervention with bicultural competence theory. Bicultural competence
encompasses skills that can enable American-Indian people to adapt the roles
in which they were raised with the culture in which they are surrounded. The
three subgoals of bicultural competence, knowledge and practice in communication,
coping, and discrimination skills, provide the theoretical foundation for intervention
to prevent substance abuse with American-Indian youth.
The original program was designed primarily for fourth and fifth grade Native American/Alaskan Native students in s classroom setting, but it can easily be modified for higher-grade levels and other adolescents. The curriculum can be implemented in a wide variety of settings, including public schools, tribal schools, tribal community centers, and student retreats. The intervention is administered in 15 one-hour sessions. View more detailed information on this program.

A full-page headline (although without an accompanying police warning light) on the Drudge Report shouted: BRIT JETS CHASE OFF RUSSIAN SPY PLANES
The story linked to a piece on Sky News' website that made the point that, while this was not a daily occurrence, there were "eight similar incidents reported in 2013." That's about once every six weeks.
I am a big fan of Matt Drudge's site and I probably check it four or five times a day to see what he and his crew think qualifies as important - or at least interesting - news items.
I suspect daily checking Drudge is a guilty pleasure of a huge majority of people working and writing in Our Nation's Capital.
This is the kind of thing that happens when tensions rise.
When the cold and snow hit this past winter, reporters and writers took to adding up the number of people in the affected areas so that "over 3.5 million Americans are trapped in this latest cold snap" or, words to a like effect.
I think I learned in Dean Merrill Patterson's English Lit class at Marietta College, Marietta, Ohio 45750 that Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) was first credited with using the phrase "or words to a like effect."
I decided to check that while I was writing this and it turns out the only references to "or words to a like effect" and "Samuel Johnson" are by me.
So, I might have made it up.
If there is a cruise ship that suffers toilet issues, then cruise ship malfunctions will be on every editor's mind for a couple of weeks.
Any issue with any airliner coming from, or going to, or maybe passing over, Malaysia will get a top-of-the-newscast mention.
A backed-up toilet on a Malaysian airliner will send CNN into hyperdrive.
The Russians have plenty of satellites floating around the Earth that can zoom in on what is going on in the U.K. They don't need to send 50-year-old turbo-prop aircraft to snoop around the English Channel.
What they are doing is checking to see what kind of response they will draw if they send a plane snooping around.
The Russians just wanted to see if there was any change in the reaction from the eight times they did the same thing last year.
But, last year there weren't tens of thousands of Russian troops massed along the eastern border of Ukraine and the President didn't send the Vice President to Kiev to, literally, show the flag and wave it in the face of Vladimir Putin.
Last year Canada didn't send fighter jets to Poland to participate in NATO exercises, nor did President Obama send elements of the 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team to join them.
Last year Ukraine wasn't in danger of being cleaved (cleft?) almost in half between Ukrainian and Russian speaking areas.
The government in Kiev is planning for an election on May 25 - just a month from now - to choose a permanent replacement for Viktor Yanukovych who fled Kiev in February of this year following his decision to move closer to Russia (a move favored by Moscow and the eastern third of Ukraine) rather than the EU (favored by the rest of Ukraine).
Vladimir Putin is doing everything short of a full-scale invasion to try an disrupt political and economic life in Ukraine to the point that the temporary government will not be able to hold that election.
That is why a fairly routine jab by the Russian air force drew a banner headline on Drudge.
Same story, different context.
On the Secret Decoder Ring page today: Links to that Russian spy plane story, Samuel Johnson, US Troops to Poland, and to the history of the Presidency of Ukraine. Also, a puzzling Mullfoto of a food truck I spotted in DC earlier this week.

Second Year School is available by invitation to students who have successfully completed Dame School or Young Engagé School.
While both first year programs ensure that students grasp a solid understanding of the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) era at Fort Vancouver, the second year program exposes students to what came after the HBC. Subjects explored include the Oregon Trail, American military arrivals, the Gold Rush years, and the Civil War era. Educational tracks may include blacksmithing, continued sewing skills, beadwork, nineteenth century medicine, storytelling, watercolor painting, diversity awareness and other topics. Skills in first person interpretation are emphasized. The second year program also expands on how research and archaeology are integral to the story of the park.


text: NEW YORK, March 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue: Reality Check on Key Mexican Unified Communications and Collaboration Solutions Markets http://www.reportlinker.com/p01056008/Reality-Check-on-Key-Mexican-Unified-Communications-and-Collaboration-Solutions-Markets.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=VOIP This research service analyzes the Mexican unified communications and collaboration solutions market. The market continues to grow within the context of the ongoing global recession. Increased awareness within the enterprise space coupled with an expanding distribution channel is helping to drive UC sales. The small and medium businesses space represents a high-growth opportunity for vendors and the channel, especially as hosted UC and collaboration solutions continue to gain acceptance. The study examines the following applications: traditional and IP telephony, unified messaging, videoconferencing endpoints solutions, on-premises e-mail server licenses, and unified clients. The base year is 2011, and the forecast period is 2012-2018. Executive summary •The Mexican unified communications (UC) and collaboration solutions market reached a revenue of $ xxmillion in 2011, representing a growth of xxpercent from the previous year. •The Internet protocol (IP) telephony segment was the largest revenue contributor, accounting for xxpercent of total market sales in 2011. •UC clients and videoconferencing solutions are expected to have the highest CAGR (from 2011 to 2018) of all of the segments covered in this study, with xpercent and xxpercent, respectively. •By 2018, the total market is expected to reach $ xxmillion in revenue, growing at a CAGR of xxpercent. •The market is dominated by three top participants—Avaya, Cisco, and Microsoft—which generate xxpercent of the total market revenue. •Frost & Sullivan considers the Mexican market to be one of the most mature in Latin America in terms of IP and UC; nevertheless, a knowledge gap remains and must be addressed to augment sales. •Many small and medium businesses (SMB) are unaware of the existence of IP and UC solutions, representing a large potential market around which vendors and channels should establish their strategies.

The View
Short Story by: Oskie1995
Status: Finished
Genre: Memoir
If i look back on days past, i can only remember the most beautiful moments...but it's the most
beautiful of memories that cause me so much pain.
She brought me to a Hill many months ago, she said there's a beautiful view at the top.
it was all out of randomness "Why not, let's go for it"
But when we got there i already knew the beautiful view wasn't the city lights below.
The View was standing right next to me.
She took me to her home afterwards. and it was there i lived again.
days before i felt hollow and alone. an empty feeling nothing was feeling. i'd cut myself
just to feel real and alive.
but that night, she filled the void. with her big brown eyes, she looked into mine and told me
it'll be okay. and i promised never to cut again.
Do you believe that if a man repents enough for what he done wrong, than he'll get to go
Back to the time that was happiest for him and live there forever? Could that be what heaven's
That day i could live again and again forever.
But like i said at the begining it's the most beautiful memories that cause me so much pain.
sometimes i find myself wishing she never existed, so i'd be spared my pain. but like a fool
i carry on..hoping i'll find her again.
Somewhere in this hollow shell of a boy lies reservoir of feeling. i pray i find my elysium.
The void is empty once more, i wear the mask that is a smile so know one knows how i really feel
and needless to say i broke my promise.
Living has never been such a burden
Underneath the mask is broken boy
Can anybody help me move on or forget
You don't know how much i miss her

By JOHN BOSCHINI
For Akron midfielder Anthony Ampaipitakwong, his four years at Akron couldn't have ended any better.
After time expired and the Zips' first national title was secured with a 1-0 victory over the Louisville Cardinals, the midfielder from Texas found the man who brought him to Ohio, Akron coach Caleb Porter.
"After the game it was very emotional for me," Ampaipitakwong said. "Me and Caleb were hugging after the game, and he told me when I first came in that Akron would be a national powerhouse by my junior or senior year."
Ampaipitakwong wasn't always so confident. During his senior year, Ampaipitakwong said he would get letters from Akron and laugh it off, not knowing where the school was, much less the specifics of its soccer program.
"But I kept getting calls, and they were saying Caleb wants to build a program around me," Ampaipitakwong said. "He got me up on a visit, and Caleb is such an amazing recruiter. I ended up really buying into his whole philosophy of play."
Ampaipitakwong was one of the first blue-chip recruits for Porter, who took over the coaching position at Akron in 2006. He brought in the 5-foot-8 Ampaipitakwong to adopt a more possession-based style, a philosophy not often seen in the long-ball, physical ranks of college soccer.
Substitutions, a mainstay in college, were largely ignored by the Akron coaching staff. Ampaipitakwong rarely saw the bench, eclipsing 2,000 minutes played in 2010.
In the national championship game, Louisville used 11 substitutions before the Zips used their first, which came in the 79th minute.
"Caleb would leave us in and trust that even when we're tired, we were fitter than the other team," Ampaipitakwong said. "We were always treated like a pro and we were expected to act like pros."
In a few days, the word "professional" will become less of a mantra and more of a job title as Ampaipitakwong prepares for the Major League Soccer SuperDraft. While he might not carry the cache of his five Generation adidas college teammates, Ampaipitakwong is still projected to be a first-round draft pick.
During the MLS Combine, the midfielder will try to showcase his distribution while not ignoring his eye for goal.
"My coaches said that the worst thing you can do at the the combine is show off and dribble," Ampaipitakwong said. "I've never been that person that wants to take on two or three guys. I like to get guys involved and bring out the best in a player."
On draft day, Ampaipitakwong isn't so much concerned about where he'll end up as how it'll be announced. He said that he gives MLS commisoner Don Garber about a 25 percent chance of pronouncing his 14-letter last name correctly. He just hopes Garber does better than an announcer did at one of his youth games.
"He just started, paused halfway through, said 'I'm sorry' and moved on to the next player," said Ampaipitakwong, which is pronounced Am-PIE-pitak-wong. "All of my teammates and coaches thought it was hilarious."
Ampai is a hell of a player, a great talent. Hopefully he won't get literally "kicked" out of MLS, due to the leagues physical play. But I think Ampai can flourish eventually in a league like Mexico, Spain, Portugal, France, etc that favors smaller midfielders.
As a Virginia fan, I can honestly say that i'm also an Ampai fan. Good luck kid.
Best player on the field during the national championship game. Hope he gets a real chance
I met Ampai while visiting Akron. Not only is he a heck of a soccer player he is incredibly personable. He will do well wherever he ends up going.
I hope the mock drafts i seen are right and he ends up being drafted by Seattle.
Annelid Gustator
Weird, I thought his nickname two years ago was "Amp" and not "Ampai". I like the shorter one better.
Yeah, the NCAA needs to change some of those rules.
The substitution rules? That would be nice. Even if it doesn't happen, hopefully we'll continue to see coaches treat their teams more like pros in that respect.
forget Lichaj, how do you say "Ampaipitakwong"?!
I was really happy to see Akron win and Ampai flourish. It proves you do not have to load a team with 6'3″ 200 pound bodies and simply punish the other team with shear brute force in order to win in college soccer.
Ampai's vision is amazing, he can handle challenges in tight spaces while finding a teammate who is not tightly marked and then makes accurate passes to setup that teammate with time and space.
I hope an MLS coach who appreciates that talent and will let it flourish will find a way to get Ampai on his squad.
Matt in Detroit
Does anyone know if he projects as a winger or a central playmaker?
Saw him in the College Cup and I hope he finds a good place in MLS. I do worry a bit that he will be too small to play as an MLS mid. All the pint sized mids that seem to make it in MLS can escape goon tackles with speed on the ball. I did not see any of that in the few games I saw, but of course he had so many options for pass distribution with Akron. I wish MLS would start cleaning up the physical play so a skilled distributor like Ampai could survive and prosper.
Just like sounds.
As the article says…Am-PIE-pitak-wong. It's long, but it's phonetic.
Lichaj, on the other hand, you have to know how to pronounce. No way you're coming up with Lee-high without prior knowledge (or a background in Polish).
Sure, no subs is great for that 1% of players that can make it to the pros. For the rest of the team it gives them a chance to play. Isn't that what amateur athletics is supposed to be about?
I agree, but it's only partially in the hands of the MLS. The refs are trained by USSF and until they improve the training of the ref pool there's not much to be done.
Still, it's not nearly the horror show that is the CCL reffing.
Is that a Filipino name or South east Asian, or some other country. Just curious because the name is so exotic to my ears.
Matt in Detroit
I'm guessing Thai.
Justin O
It's honestly not THAT hard to pronounce. As mentioned above, unlike "Lichaj", which requires some knowledge of the language of origin, every letter is pronounced as you would expect.
The problem is in the US many people learn to read by essentially memorizing words, rather than sounding out words. If the former is how you learned to read, then this name will certainly stop you in your tracks. If you learned to sound out unfamiliar words, then there's no reason why you couldn't get very close to the correct pronunciation of Ampaipitakwong on the first try.
No, rules should be as close to uniform as possible, NCAA soccer should be as close to how those at Arsenal are playing it, what some 15 year old in Argentina is playing, etc.
If I was a high school soccer player being recruited by a college program, I'd want something that would prepare me for everything from MLS to Barcelona.
Hopefully more college programs adopt Akron's anti-substitution ways.

Chapter Twenty-FiveMature
Chapter Twenty-Five
The rent plan pretty much failed, within twenty minutes my eyes grew heavy. When I next woke them there was light coming from somewhere to my right. I breathed in rubbed at my eyes. That's when I realised I was still at Zack's, in his bed. The light was from the window to my right, a clock was also on the bed stand, telling me I needed to hurry home if I wanted to get a change of cloths. I turned to my left and saw Zack, snoring softly. He looked younger when he was asleep. I considered taking a picture with my phone but it went off before I could do it. I answered it quickly and got out of the bed, hoping I hadn't woken up Zack.
"Hey mum," I said, hoping I sounded apologetic.
"Well, at least I know you're not dead," she muttered down the line making me wince.
"Sorry, I fell asleep at Zack's and only just woke up. Guess Zack decided it'd be better to let me sleep than wake me up," I replied. The ruffle of cloth reached me and I glanced over my shoulder. Damn, Zack had woken up. He saw the phone in my hand and tried to stifle a loud yawn.
"He probably thought you were too cute to wake up," she teased. I felt my cheeks redden, which made Zack raise a curious eyebrow. God forbid he meet my mum, they'd have a field day with the teasing.
"Yeah, well I'll head over as soon as I can," I said. Mum laughed and I wondered why.
"Look out the window hun," she finally said. I frowned but pulled the curtain aside, Zack leaned across the bed to look out too.
"Damn, guess no school for us then," Zack mumbled. Looks like the rain had come back for one final say during the night. Huge puddles stretched over the roads, which lacked any cars.
"Are you okay?" I asked mum, we both knew I meant the house.
"Just a little carpet damage near the door. I'll grab some extra shifts to make up the repair money. Don't worry," she said with a sigh. Like that made much difference, I always worried and she knew it. She said goodbye and I murmured it back.
"We should probably head to yours so you can change," Zack mumbled. Getting out of bed. It was then I realised he only had pyjama bottoms on. Zack's thin form had been very misleading, because that chest was definitely all muscle.
"But you won't drive to school?" I asked, trying to distract myself.
"We live on a hill. I imagine the flooding around school is a lot worse," Zack pointed out. I had to agree. Zack headed into another door and I heard a shower start up. En-suite bathroom, of course, why wouldn't they have those too?
"Will your dad's thing still happen tonight?" I asked through the door.
"Probably with my luck," he shouted back.
"Well, hope there isn't a dress-code," I said. Zack laughed and the door opened next to me. I tried really hard not to watch him move about the room with only a towel wrapped round his waist.
"Sorry, but my dad doesn't do anything without a suit and tie," Zack replied, pulling jeans and a shirt from his chest of drawers. I turned away when he started getting dressed. Maybe he was comfortable but I figured after yesterday it'd be a little unfair of me to admire him.
"Is that a problem?" Zack asked, his voice much closer. I turned to look over my shoulder and saw him buttoning up his shirt.
"Ermm, don't own a tie, let alone a suit," I said, trying not to feel embarrassed about that. You didn't worry about fancy cloths when you needed food more. Zack blinked once then twice and nodded.
"Okay then, yours then into the city," Zack said with a small smile.
"You aren't buying me a suit," I muttered, because I could try by the little gleam in his eye he was planning something.
"No, I'm buying one for me...that happens to be your size," Zack added, heading for the bedroom door before I could make more objections. At least the drive to mine wasn't too bad. Though mum may have play downed the damage to the front door. When I walked in the carpet around it was a small puddle.
"You want to call someone?" Zack asked. I sent him a look that very clearly said not too. Zack signed but left it alone. It was bad enough he was insisting on buying me fancy cloths I'll probably only use once. I headed into my room, grabbing a change of cloths then raced into the bathroom. When I came out again, changed and a lot less grubby that this morning, I saw Zack was on the sofa looking around. I sat down next to him, my hair was still dripping, whereas he had used a hair-drier on his.
"Not what you're used I guess," I said, taking in his mix of shock and confusion.
"Sorry, it's..." he trailed off and sighed.
"I can't say anything without sounding like a patronizing idiot," he muttered, I spluttered a laugh with my head shaking.
"The fact you're aware of it means it's less likely," I pointed out, "Should we go back to yours?" I added after a few moments of quiet.
"Can I see your room first?" Zack asked. I hesitated, it wasn't like my room was special so I didn't know why he was interested in seeing it. I shrugged and led him down our tiny hallway, one side was the door to mums room, on the other the doors to the bathroom and my room. I opened the second door and let Zack walk in first. There wasn't a lot of standing space so I sat on the bed, trying not to feel self-conscious.
"Nice drawings," Zack said, tilting his head to the side to look at the stuff I'd stuck on the walls. Some were drawn a few years ago, others more recently. It was easy to compare how bad I used to be.
"Thanks," I murmured, hating my cheeks tendency to blush at almost anything. Zack sat down next to me and turned to look at me.
"So, guess I know why you're so smart," Zack said with a laugh.
"I could also be intellectual gifted on top of the free time," I pointed out sarcastically making Zack stutter another laugh.
"Wouldn't surprise me," he said, turning to meet my eyes. I leaned forward and kissed him, weaving my hands through his hair again. When we pulled away we were both breathing harshly. Zack's cheeks had turned flushed.
"Nice not to be the only one," I whispered. Zack kissed me again as form of reply, I felt him groan against my lips.
"We should head into town," he said, breaking off the kiss abruptly and standing up.

The Best Things You Can Do For Your Colon
Colon health is a broad and complicated subject about which many weighty books have been written. In terms of cancer prevention and overall health, the colon is one of the keys to maintaining longevity and well-being, and taking some very simple steps can significantly improve your health in the short-term and long-term.
What is the Colon and What Does It Do?
The colon or large intestine is an organ of elimination in the human body and is generally six feet long in the average adult. While the small intestine can be up to 22 feet long and is intrinsic to the absorption of many important nutrients, the large intestine does not play a large role in nutrient absorption other than some fat-soluble vitamins (like Vitamin K) and the mineral potassium. Most importantly, the colon helps to maintain the body's water balance by reabsorbing most of the water in human feces, and this is why a person suffering from diarrhea runs a great risk of dehydration due to the amount of water that is lost in loose and watery stool.
The colon is also the organ where material that cannot be absorbed by the body is fermented by friendly flora (bacteria), and this all-important organ of elimination also removes unfriendly bacteria, parasites, and other unwanted materials from the body before they can pass into the bloodstream.

need a logo for my software company
I need a logo for my company's website. The company name is Clevr Software.
I want it to be suitable in a corporate setting. I'm thinking to have either just one word "Clevr" or 2 words "Clevr Software". For the 2-word version, the word "Software" stands below "Clevr" and 2 words have equal width. In either version, I like the word "Clevr" in a wide font (like oracle's logo). Also, only the first letter is capital. However, all the above are just rough thoughts, I'm totally open to ideas.

Writing Thoughts
I must be thinking about writing the wrong way. I've always gone on instinct you could say. Writing has just been … there. But not really
When I was little, I had dreamt I'd be a dancer one day. Secretly, I had loved the way it felt when gliding on high toes with a perfect poise and a pretty dress. I had dreamt that it was my calling and that someday, I'd go to New York City. That dream didn't come true.
When I was little, I had dreamt I'd be a fashion designer. I even had had an entire notebook filled with drawings of clothing that I'd sew and stitch together someday. I'd have an amazing line and go to (you guessed it) New York City to sell it. Become famous and then everyone would remember my name. That dream didn't come true either.
When I was little, I never dreamt I'd be an author. I guess writing wasn't entertaining to me back then. I found it tiring and boring even. I never thought it would become something I'd enjoy so much, something I want to do for the rest of my life. And there are just a couple things about it that make it great.
I love the idea of escape. It's like when you're writing, you are a different person at a different place and time. Instead of sitting home at the computer, you could be strolling through a park on a sunny day. And instead of scribbling in a notebook, you could be lying on a beach enjoying the breezy summer air. With writing you could go anywhere and be anyone.
People have always told me you can't write about something unless you've experienced it. But what would be the fun in that? Writing about only your experiences would be unexciting because you'd just be reliving them … but on paper or the Internet. But maybe it's true.
Maybe you can only write about something and make it real if you've gone through it. Naw, what am I saying? That's the other part of writing. Making up a whole new world. Sometimes it could be real or other times coming completely out of your head. But that's a good thing. You know what that's called? Imagination of course.
Creating an event and emotions circling around that event when you've never even experienced that event is all about the fun of writing. It's kind of like being someone you're not. Pretending just like little girls who play dress-up and dream about who they'll be when they grow up.
And sure, I'm not "all grown up" yet but that's not stopping me from taking step after step until I am. Plus, it that means imagining events I might live or things I might do one day, I'm all for it.

July 14 marked the end of the most recent dead period for ECU football recruiting. With the window of communication back open coaches will begin to pursue more top targets at key positions.
The Achilles heel in recruiting for ECU has always been the running back position. Aside from the landing of Chris Johnson, arguably the most talented running back to ever play at ECU, the Pirates have struggled in recent memory to land a running back commit early on in a class' recruitment.
2015 has been no different, with August approaching ECU has yet to lock up a commit at running back.
It could be due to the spread offense coordinator Lincoln Riley runs, it could be something else, the important thing to note is coaches are hoping to end the pattern and get a commit at the running back position as soon as possible.
With all that being said, ECU is making strides with one of its top targets. Let's break down where the Pirates stand with their current 2015 running back targets they've offered.
Running backs
South Central (Winterville, N.C.) running back Shawn Furlow:
As of right now Shawn Furlow is the running back ECU has the best chance of landing. Speaking with him recently showed no change in his interests, ECU is still number one. Right now Furlow is focusing on schoolwork and preparing for his season. He has visited ECU close to ten times and will visit again this fall, for the Pirates it could be a match made in heaven. Furlow is discussing his school options with his parents right now, but there is a chance he ends up at ECU when it is all said and done.
Wake Forest-Rolesville (N.C.) running back Bryce Love:
Recruiting Bryce Love has been extremely difficult for ECU to this point. For a long stretch of time Love was the Pirates' No.1 overall target, but with so many schools on his trail it seems to be a long shot. He's being heavily pursued by schools like Florida, N.C. State, Stanford, Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina and the list goes on.
Pearl Cohn (Nashville, TN) running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn:
ECU left an impression on Ke'Shawn Vaughn when he visited during the spring. However, Vaughn has since taken many visits to other schools like Louisville, Illinois, Kentucky and Vanderbilt. Vandy has emerged as the current leader in his interests. Don't be surprised if ECU makes another push on Vaughn by inviting out for a game day experience this fall.
Charlotte (Punta Gorda, Fla.) running back Elijah Mack:
Elijah Mack could be a name to watch out for moving forward. He currently holds three offers including ones from ECU, UCF and Cincinnati. This fall will be big in Mack's recruitment as he has yet to visit either of the three schools interested. ECU could continue contact and extend a game day invitation if it is interested.

This should be the best of times for John McCain. He has accomplished precisely what most Americans say they want: for elected leaders of both parties to work together, compromise when necessary, and actually reach agreements that address the major issues facing America.
The compromise just reached by senators on the issue of immigration doesn't include everything either side might wish, but its essential structure — greater enforcement at the border coupled with an opportunity for those who are already here, working, paying taxes, rasising children many of whom are themselves American citizens, to come out of the shadows and achieve legal status — reflects the approach that the overwhelming majority of Americans see as the only solution to illegal immigration.
The problem is that the overwhelming majority of Americans don't vote in Republican primaries and caucuses. The views of the overwhelming majority of Americans are almost never heard on talk radio in this country and rarely on television either. The debate about immigration is not dominated by the reasonable middle in this country, but by the screamers at both extremes.
For John McCain, running as a Republican, that means a chorus of criticism from the media loud mouths on the right (you know who I mean) who don't matter very much in a general election, because their following is so skewed right, but who, for that very reason, can be critical to success in the Republican primaries and caucuses that skew almost as far right as the media screamers.
And boy are they screaming. Last night, I had to watch the TV with the sound off because shrill doesn't begin to describe it. They can barely spit out the word "amnesty," which is not what the bill provides for, but lights more fires under people than pointing out that for those already in this country, with a good working history, what the bill provides for is not citizenship but the opportunity to pay $5,000 in fees and penalties to apply for a four year Z visa, which can then be renewed for another four years, after which the individual can then apply for a green card. As for the temporary worker program created under the bill to meet this country's labor needs, the fact is that the bill provides absolutely no way for temporary workers to become citizens. So much for amnesty, and opening the floodgates.
And what would these right wingers prefer? That we break up families in which the parents are undocumented and the children are citizens, deporting the parents and leaving the children homeless? That we tell those who were brought here as children and have lived here their entire lives that they are about to be shipped out to countries which are as foreign to them as they would be to you and me? And what about the 5 million would-be immigrants who have applied to reunite with their families, some of whom have waited 20 years or more to be with loved ones. The bill aims to clear that backlog within five years. Is there something wrong with that too?
The compromise reached by the Senate is far from perfect, as critics from both sides are pointing out, even those who favor its basic approach. Some Democrats are worried that the guest worker program will drive down wages; at the same time, the enforcement program, according to Republican Senator Charles Grassley, would give the Department of Homeland Security "unlimited open-ended access to all Social Security data, including confidential tax return information." The House still has to pass its own bill, which Democrats believe will require 60 to 70 Republican votes, given the explosiveness of the issue for some vulnerable first-term Democrats. But virtually everyone agrees that if we are to deal with the immigration problems anytime in the near future, the time is now, before presidential politics makes doing anything impossible.
In fact, both McCain and Giuliani favor comprehensive reform, and Mitt Romney, the third of the frontrunners, who has criticized McCain for his role in the compromise, has his own, usual record of flip-flops on the issue. But that won't stop the right wingers from attacking the deal and the dealers, as if they have an alternative, and it may not help McCain, who is so desperate to prove his conservative credentials. Too bad. McCain has done something important. In a general election, it could actually help him. But if the loudmouths have their way, he'll never get that far, which as a Democrat, is fine with me.

Why the Owner Chose Estate Smith Bay, Saint Thomas, USVI:
My family and I fell in love with St. Thomas when we first visited it on a Carribean cruise in August of 2010. We knew we wanted to come back. In January of 2011 we made a return trip to St. Thomas to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. We stayed at Sapphire Beach and decided we needed to make it our second home. We purchased our unit a month later and I have been renovating it since. Finally, it is finished......and beautiful.

Norman St John Stevas, who did more than any other politician of his generation to strengthen the power of the House of Commons, has died at the age of 82, it was announced yesterday. His family said that he died on Friday, after a short illness.
When he was Leader of the House of Commons, in Margaret Thatcher's first Cabinet, he introduced the Select Committee system under which each government department answers to a committee of backbench MPs. In the intervening 30 years, the Stevas system has proved to be by far the most effective means by which the Commons can call ministers, civil servants and other influential people to account.
Lord St John of Fawsley, as he became known in 1987, also arranged for MPs' salaries to be doubled, from less than £7,000 to almost £14,000 in three annual stages.
He was the only cabinet minister, apart from Sir Keith Joseph, to have supported Margaret Thatcher in the 1975 leadership election, and so was deeply shocked when he was the first cabinet minister she sacked in January 1981.
He was neither ineffective nor disloyal, but his reforms pleased her less than they pleased backbench MPs, and she was set on having a more right-wing cabinet. He never signed up to Mrs Thatcher's radical economic policies, and was reputedly the author of the mocking acronym Tina, short for There is No Alternative.
He once complained: "Because I am burdened with a capacity for wit, people have sometimes had the impression that I am not serious in my approach. Nothing could be farther from the truth."
An example of this affliction was when he remarked, in 1979: "One should not be a name-dropper, as Her Majesty remarked to me yesterday." He was obviously joking, but the quotation has been thrown back at him countless times, as if he meant it. He was a confidant of royalty, but took care not to divulge conversations he had with them.
Flamboyant and eccentric in his manner and the way he dressed, he was assumed to be gay in an era when it would have been political death for a gay politician to acknowledge his sexuality. He was independently wealthy, and was sometimes seen driving up to Clarence House in his white Rolls Royce to drop off a bouquet for the Queen Mother.
Two old opponents of Mrs Thatcher paid tribute to him yesterday. The Justice Secretary, Ken Clarke, told the BBC Lord St John was a "good minister" and former deputy prime minister Lord Heseltine said he was a "one-off".
He quit the Commons in 1987, after 23 years as MP for Chelmsford, and entered the House of Lords. A former arts minister, he spent much of his semi-retirement as an advocate for the arts and higher education. He served as chairman of the Booker panel of judges and the Fine Arts Commission, and was a prolific author.Reuse content

Not my cup of tea. But as I'm concerned, those two were made for each other.
This was a pretty nice fic here. There characters acted like they would in the actually. Not to mention I liked how you added your own spin on the writing.

And then, out of nowhere, some kind of sultry rap/R&B music began to play out through the stereo that was in Lightning's own dresser.
I can see it now. That line made it kind of come alive,
Now to let you know, QUICK, UP THE RATING! And congrats to Sha-Lightning, winner of Total Drama Revenge of the Island *in the USA* and champion of the Red-laced panties!

I would give you a Grilled Cheese Deluxe for making a really humorous, fantastic story so far! :D

Haha, she caught him. Probably a good thing, since Lightning was being a bit creepy with those panties. :P

| DIM666 - Insane Leader chapter 2 . 5/26/2012
I hope Lightning's wearing a cup?
Me to. And Brick.
What will Anne Maria even react other than being speechless?
I don't think so, for a minute or two. Then she'll go to hell with Sha-Lightning.
And will anyone get me a Grilled Cheese Deluxe?
I would, but they are hard to send through reviews and PM's.
Dang. Lightning, your a joke, and a very funny one at that. You shoulda won the Island.
| IPink Cornflakes chapter 1 . 5/26/2012
Haha awesome story. Update soon! BTW Anne Maria is my fav character! D
| Rae Fishtooth chapter 1 . 5/25/2012
Haha! Funny. So far, so good! Keep it up!
| DIM666 - Insane Leader chapter 1 . 5/25/2012
"Nah, must be the dang pelicans." Lightning responded as he was just ignoring the scream. "Lightning hates it when they sound too Jersey-like..."
If you look at this as a humor, this thing is an EPIC WIN! YESH! Faved!

|[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-8497) Shell needs a way to list amount of physical consumed space in a directory

Todd Lipcon created HADOOP-8497: ----------------------------------- Summary: Shell needs a way to list amount of physical consumed space in a directory Key: HADOOP-8497 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8497 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: fs Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 1.0.3, 3.0.0 Reporter: Todd Lipcon Assignee: Andy Isaacson Currently, there is no way to see the physical consumed space for a directory. du lists the logical (pre-replication) space, and "fs -count" only displays the consumed space when a quota is set. This makes it hard for administrators to set a quota on a directory, since they have no way to determine a reasonable value. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

The Therapist's OfficeMature
You think your characters need therapy? You should see what I did to mine ...
Hello. My name is Anna, and I shall be your characters' therapists. We understand that life in fiction can be terribly traumatic, especially for those under the care of more dramatic writers. And of course, you sometimes wish to get your own back on them ... that's perfectly natural.
But we don't want violence here on Protagonize, thank you very much, and so we've set up this therapy centre to help you deal with it. If you and your authors would like to sit down and calmly talk about this, I'll try and give you some helpful advice to help you get through this.
After all ... you're never alone, are you?

Witchcraft for Tomorrow
€ 10,99
Lieferbar innerhalb von 6 Wochen
Dezember 1987
BeschreibungSince the publication of her previous books on witchcraft, Doreen Valiente has received many letters asking -How can I find a witches' coven? How can I become a witch?- This book gives the answers. It tells you what the old religion of witchcraft has to offer the new age; how the ago-old Craft of the Wise can be practiced in the modern world; how to initiate yourself and start your own coven. The author has been a practicing witch since 1953, and in this book she gives a new Book of Shadows (the witch's handbook of rituals and instructions) based upon ancient magical tradition but geared to present times. Included are spells, incantations, witch songs, and practical advice on how to run a coven and how to acquire your own collection of magical implements.

I am petite, but have hips and a backside and can never find suits that fit. BUT these fit great and feel great.
I love these shorts too much! I was worried they would be too short so I bought some of the longer ones too, but they fit great and I feel really cute in them! I love the color too, so bright and fun! Color appears to be the same as shown.
Love the boy shorts. Keep things covered modestly and still look great. Very comfy fit. Quality is very good. We will buy from Hapari again!
These fit like boy short underwear. They offer more coverage than a bikini bottom, but less than a board short or swim skirt. If you want a little more coverage in the midsection, these are perfect. I have a medium build with a small butt and a thick waist, and the large fit me perfectly. This is also a high quality garment. I am very pleased with my purchase.
Love the fit of these bottoms and they have held up so well.

Min Xiao-Fen
The pipa, or Chinese lute, has been part of traditional music in China for more than 2,000 years. These days, a few intrepid players have been incorporating the pipa's sound into jazz, bluegrass, and modern classical music. Pipa virtuoso Min Xiao-Fen finds it impossible to stick to just one genre. Produced by Studio 360's Lu Olkowski.

Even in death, Thatcher draws scorn from some

LONDON — While some Britons mourned the passing of Margaret Thatcher, others raised glasses of champagne in impromptu street parties. And "The Wizard of Oz" song "Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead" is surging up the UK singles charts.
A Guardian newspaper cartoon depicted Thatcher descending into hell, the Socialist Worker front page said "Rejoice," and a movie marquee was rearranged to read: "Margaret Thatchers Dead LOL."

Cigarette Burns
"A cigarette is the perfect type of a perfect pleasure. It is exquisite, and it leaves one unsatisfied." — Oscar Wilde
Why am I here? Why did I come? My skin is cold as my shirt is removed for me, and I tell him so. He only smiles and tells me I won't be cold for much longer. I shudder as he runs his hands over my skin; I can't stop thinking of her. I look away and close my eyes, so I don't have to see him—let him do what he will. I don't care. He must have noticed my actions because he's stopped; his voice is quiet, almost wounded, as he asks what's wrong.
What's wrong, I repeat. Nothing is wrong, I offer in answer and he accepts after a moment and continues caressing me. I return to my thoughts, paying him as little mind as I may. What's wrong, I ask myself. It should be her bed I'm lying in, not his. I moan as his hands slip further down. I don't know how it came to this. I told myself that she would be the only one, that I would live with the void her absence made, that I would still remain faithful to her always. He had told me I was being stupid, childish, and he had offered an alternative.
For weeks I refused him. The weeks grew longer and half a year went by but still I rejected his offer. So how did it come to this? He's undone my pants now, and he's waiting for me to kick them off. I do, but slowly, so he has to wait—I can tell it's nearly unbearable for him and I wonder how long it would have been until he ripped them off himself. With my pants removed, he crawls on his knees until he's sitting on my lap, his face close to mine. He kisses my neck, his tongue making whorl patterns on my skin, and I moan, missing her.
He presses himself against me and I can't stop the gasp that escapes my lips. He's smiling in my ear now. He knows what I need, he says, licking my jaw. The room is dark and so dim that I'm surprised I can even see him, let alone his face. How can I do this? Betray her? But then—I think as he descends on my neck again, this time with his teeth—Hasn't she done the same? Perhaps, but I still hadn't meant it to be like this. We had been talking as he smoked, and suddenly I didn't care anymore. Suddenly, I just wanted everything to change, to melt, to burn and die like the cigarette dangling from his lips. Then I had kissed him. That was three weeks ago.
I'm gasping now, hard and panting to keep from screaming as I grab at his back and claw at his skin, writhing beneath his touch. He smiles because he knows I'm breaking, that I'm losing the fight to keep my fidelity. Tears sting my eyes as he lowers himself and he takes me into his mouth, stroking me. I look past him, to the ceiling, and beg for forgiveness as I clutch at his hair now—I release with a strangled cry. He sits back a little, smiling as he wipes his face clean, knowing that he's won, and I shudder. I pull his face to mine and press our lips together, forcing my tongue inside his mouth. He tastes like smoke and ash and I pray that I will die.
And something in me does die as I fade out like the burning embers of a cigarette.
A/N: Wow. That's kind of dark, and the closest thing to smut that I've ever posted—I'm blushing and I'm sure it was horrible. Sorry for wasting your time with that. Kudos to anyone who can correctly guess the mystery man seducing our dear Tori-kun! Please, review!
