Eight Questions for Ground Zero Redevelopment
New York, NY —Today at the Javitz Center, the public gets to react to the six official proposals for redeveloping ground zero, released this week by the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation. WNYC's Brian Lehrer says if you re planning to go, here are eight questions you might want to ask, when it's your turn at the mike.
Question number one:
Almost everyone finds these designs disappointing. Why do you think that is? I realize you have a lot of demands on you to make the site all things to all people. Our loss was so great that our expectations may be foolishly high. But why do you think almost no one seems to find them inspiring?
Question number two:
Could the main reason be that business and political constraints forced the designers to stifle their imaginations? Most of us didn t know there were ground zero ground rules that couldn t be violated: We didn t know that all 11 million square feet of office space had to be replaced , and all 600-thousand square feet of hotel and retail space. With the open mall most of us want for a memorial, were those rules just too confining for a really great design?
Question number three:
Do those rules have to stand? Most of us know the Port Authority owns the Trade Center. But we didn t realize it signed a 99 year lease, in April of last year, that gave development rights to two private companies. I realize THEY want all the commercial space restored, but under the circumstances, can t you renegotiate?
Question number four:
Governor Pataki appointed the people who are leading this process. The New York Times reported this week that Westfield America, one of those leaseholders, funneled at least $100,000 to Mr. Pataki s re-election campaign. Could that have anything to do with this?
Question number five:
The city councilman for lower Manhattan, Alan Gerson, tells me there is already 12 million square feet of vacant office space in the downtown area, and that the city is subsidizing businesses to occupy some of it. Is that what we have to look forward to with these designs - a government-required office complex that the government will have to pay businesses to move to?
Which leads me to question number six: we all know there s a housing shortage in the city. Why wouldn t you rather subsidize affordable housing?
Question number seven:
I realize the Port Authority is in a tight spot. Without all that commercial space, it might lose a lot of revenue that allows it to build transportation and infrastructure projects we all depend on. But is that a higher public good than the best possible plan for ground zero? If you think so, please make your case.
And question number seven:
Ground Zero is in the shadow of Wall Street. Alan Greenspan admonished Wall Street this week for succumbing to infectious greed . Is greed also infecting this supposedly sacred process? Thank you for your time. I ll listen to your answers now.

GVSU Removes Sculpture After People Ride It
Grand Valley State University has removed a sculpture (pictured) that resembles a wrecking ball from its Allendale campus.
Administrators started having safety concerns after seeing images of people riding it. WOOD TV says one of those images is a video of a naked man, mimicking pop star Miley Cyrus in the music video for her song "Wrecking Ball."
School leaders have put the sculpture in storage and plan to study its structural integrity.

CANADA STOCKS-Futures rebound after two-day free fall
June 28 (Reuters) - Stock futures pointed to a higher opening for Canada's main stock index on Tuesday after a two-day slide triggered by Britain's vote to leave the European Union.
Oil prices rose more than 2 percent as investors took advantage of a two-day slide in crude.
September futures on the S&P TSX index were up 0.42 percent at 7:15 a.m. ET.
Dow Jones Industrial Average e-mini futures were up 1.08 percent at 7:15 a.m. ET, while S&P 500 e-mini futures were up 1.02 percent and Nasdaq 100 e-mini futures were up 1.04 percent.
Canada's main stock index notched its lowest close in seven weeks on Monday, as the fallout of the British referendum pummeled financial stocks and energy shares fell with retreating oil prices.
No major economic events are scheduled for Tuesday.

INDIAN WELLS, CALIFORNIA – Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray and Stanislas Wawrinka won their opening matches Saturday in the BNP Paribas Open.
Federer, the four-time champion seeded seventh, beat French qualifier Paul-Henri Mathieu. The Swiss star was coming off his 78th career title last week in Dubai.
"It's important to win," he said. "It's a lot different from Dubai. You have to force a bit more, but I'm satisfied."
World No. 1 and defending champion Nadal held off determined Radek Stepanek 2-6, 6-4, 7-5 to reach the third round.
Nadal, who had won all six of his prior encounters with the talented Czech, appeared to have gained control of this one when he won the second set with a single service break and broke again to open the third set.
But Stepanek immediately broke back, and Nadal had to save three break points in the sixth game to stay on terms before finally gaining the decisive break in the 11th game and serving out the victory after 2 hours and 24 minutes.
Stepanek, a former top-10 player now ranked 50th, fired 12 aces in the match, while Nadal overcame eight double faults with just two aces.
Nadal next faces Ukraine's Alexandr Dolgopolov, a 7-6 (7-3), 6-4 winner over American Tim Smyczek.
The fifth-seeded Murray topped Lukas Rosol 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, and the third-seeded Wawrinka, playing for the first time since winning the Australian Open, beat Ivo Karlovic 6-3, 7-5.
Murray reached the final in 2009, but has mostly struggled in the event.
"I think it's important sometimes to think about it, because when you're not expecting it to happen and then it does, that's when it can kind of take you by surprise and you might panic a little bit or worry," Murray said. "But I don't feel like (that happened) today. I was a set and a break down. I got broken three times in a row the end of the first set, beginning of the second. I just kind of kept going and found a way to win, which is always the most important thing."
Kei Nishikori made a winning start with a straight-sets victory over Colombia's Santiago Giraldo.
The 19th-seeded Nishikori beat the 71st-ranked Giraldo 6-1, 6-3 to improve to 5-1 in his career over the Colombian. Nishikori, who had a first-round bye, got off to a strong start and broke his opponent twice in each set to make an easy day of it.
"I was in good form today. My service game was never in danger, and I was able to attack," said Nishikori, who injured his groin in February.
"I didn't feel any pain at all today. This was proof that I'm fit to play."
In the third round, Nishikori will face 11th-seeded Tommy Haas of Germany, who advanced with a 6-3, 6-4 victory over France's Jeremy Chardy.
Mikhail Youzhny, seeded 14th, withdrew because of a back injury and the American men's contingent was trimmed from its initial 14 members to one after losses by Michael Russell, Sam Querrey, Smyczek and Ryan Harrison. The only U.S. player remaining is 12th seed John Isner, who will face Nikolay Davydenko on Sunday.
In women's play, top-seeded Li Na beat Chinese compatriot Zheng Jie 6-1, 7-5.
Maria Sharapova made a strong start to her title defense with a 6-1, 6-4 victory over Julia Goerges.
Sharapova, seeded fourth, needed just 66 minutes to get past the unseeded German on the Stadium Court.
Although she had seven double faults, she didn't face a break point as she advanced her bid to add a third title in the California desert to go with those she won last year and in 2006.
The former world No. 1 and four-time Grand Slam champion's 2013 campaign was cut short in August by a shoulder injury that ruled her out of the U.S. Open.
Currently ranked fifth in the world, Sharapova is playing her fourth tournament of the year but has yet to reach a final. She took a break from tennis in February to attend the Sochi Winter Olympics, where she was a torchbearer and worked for broadcaster NBC.
"The first matches are always a little bit tricky, especially having not played in a few weeks indoor or outdoor," she said. "Tricky opponent, and she's capable of playing good tennis. She hasn't been as consistent as she probably would have liked recently, but she's had her results."
"I thought I did what I had to do," Sharapova added.
Sharapova next faces Italian qualifier Camila Giorgi, a 7-6 (7-3), 6-3 winner over 25th-seeded Romanian Sorana Cirstea.
Fifth-seeded Angelique Kerber dropped out, falling 2-6, 7-6 (7-5), 6-4 to Maria-Teresa Torro-Flor. Aleksandra Wozniack also beat No. 15 Sabine Lisicki 7-5, 1-6, 7-6 (7-5).

Having put the second hand Remus backbox on in place of my stock exhaust the car seems to be a lot more lively at low revs. Most definitely picks up a fair bit quicker and seems more free revving. The butt dyno says it could have taken a second off the 60 time which was poor at 10 seconds.
Great mod in my opinion....I wasn't expecting anything from it at all.

Ha ha!
What we found basically replicates YouTube's 360 video in a native player that seems to work embedded everywhere.
The preview seems to have some questionable responsive behaviour – but that is fixable and the actual player responds well.
If anyone wants to know the name they can drop me a private message on here.
Aweosme idea but regretfully it is full VR 360 Video.
We just found one platform which plays natively in browsers without forcing apps. Can't share it in case of promotion – need to set a good example as a moderator! but it looks absolutely awesome.
Fingers crossed we can make it work!
Does anyone know of a way of natively playing 360 video on mobile IOS/Android without having to launch it in an app?
We know that Chrome allows YouTube to do this but what we are after is a way of doing it for those NOT using Chrome or a video on YouTube.
There are players incl. Kolor, GoPano etc. which work great on desktop but as soon as you try and play the same videos on Iphone or Android it forces you to try and download/play in their apps.
Does anyone know of any hacks or a way around this?
I don't know Joomla but I just looked in the source code where it says it is Joomla.
It could be a stock theme I just don't know enough about Joomla to judge.
You could easily build something like this with one of the many WP themes on here or if you want Joomla then personally I think you could do something much nicer with this http://themeforest.net/item/beauty-center-multipurpose-services-template/8979136
Looks like a custom built Joomla site not a theme.
There are several beauty/hair etc Joomla themes on here http://themeforest.net/search?category=cms-themes%2Fjoomla&term=hair&utf8=%E2%9C%93
Check some of these BUT bear in mind that it is never going to be exactly what you want and these kind of sites require a lot of setup, management and editing to get right. Plus if you are planning to charge people to list etc then you need an extended license
With all due respect you are a long way off the required standard for here.
There are several issues with fundamental spacing etc. but most of all the typography needs serious work.
You need to compare this to others for sale here and you will see the premium difference.
tansh said
Envato jobs? There is a 'Careers' link in footer.
+1 also if you are referring to people looking to hire people with modifications and editing etc, then they really forums are not the right place to do this and there is www.studio.envato.com
What theme? Have you asked the author?
Just reverse image search them – they're mostly Shutterstock http://www.shutterstock.com/pic.mhtml?id=90296530&src=id and http://www.shutterstock.com/pic.mhtml?id=189829349&src=id
except 3rd one which has been modified using https://unsplash.imgix.net/42/U7Fc1sy5SCUDIu4tlJY3_NY_by_PhilippHenzler_philmotion.de.jpg?auto=format&fit=max&fm=jpg&q=75&w=400 and the guy who is again Shutterstock

This looks like a good opportunity for these lads who want to chase their dreams to become good app creators, while at the same time they wish to attend a college.
It's estimated that 300,000 jobs for software developers will be created in the next few years, and a sizeable part of them will be a direct consequence of the smartphone boom that we are witnessing at the moment.
Classes that are concerned with mobile app development will be focused mainly on Android and iOS for the time being (i.e. as long as these platforms manage to retain their momentum), but the emphasize may shift to other mobile OSs if they gain ground against the dominant forces of today.
Now, we have absolutely no idea whether such a degree may help or not, but if you are interested in it, hit the source link for more information on the topic.

In a decided shift from its graceful, elegant image, the sari is now fun, providing enough length in its 6 yards for the wearer and designer to experiment freely.
The sari is changing. Not content with the yardsful of unending material it is assuming new forms. Not limiting to zari or kaseeda in its embellishments, it is experimenting with texturisations. Not satisfied with the state-wise draping styles, it is reinventing new ones, crossing frontiers. And not just happy being draped around ammas it is eyeing nubile daughters.
While the unstitched garment represents a tradition - you can call it Sita Maiya's legacy and Draupadi's pride - it also is an evolving outfit. Once a symbol of grace, it is also becoming known for the freedom of interpretation that it offers, both to the wearer and the designer.
Designer Wendell Rodricks commented, "Unlike many heritage outfits, the sari has not become a costume. It is still a part of a tradition of liveable clothes. In India the wearer knows that the sari is the best for her."
Today, Satya Paul's limited edition trouser sari is a rage, Wendell Rodricks has moved on from the lungi, bondage and sarong saris to mermaid cut pleated sari-skirts, Anjana Bhargav is using denim highlights on georgettes.
The one to really revolutionise drapes and bring them to ramps and baraats alike is Shaina NC. NC has styled 17 ways of draping the saree, one even involving two sarees worn together. A ghaghara saree (pleats spaced out towards the end of one hip and the pallu is worn like a dupatta) is ideal for slim waistlines. A double drape has two contrast saris: one worn like a regular sari but with the pallu on the left side in front and the other pleated at the side with the pallu in front.
Another double drape style has it draped on one side conventionally and the other pleated on the left with the pallu pleated on the right shoulder. She recommends the lungi saree for voluptuous apple shaped figures and a Western saree to be worn with pants (the sari worn like a khada dupatta with the pallu around the neck).
Amongst the traditional Indian drapes it became fashionable to wear the Bangla style sari soon after Devdas.
The palla could be left hanging on the side.
Sometimes, it is wrapped around the neck like a dupatta. The pleats also don't have to be in the front. They can go on the side while a pleated palla drops in the front, giving the look of a skirt.
The idea is simple: Take a sari, choose a skirt style, stitch it folded the right way, add a zipper, leave the top free to be draped over the shoulders and you have a garment which combines the ease of a skirt with the fluid grace of the sari.
Now fashion shows exhibit various versions of the pre-stitched garment. In some the pleats were stitched with crystals for effect, in others the skirt was fitted over the knees in the classic mermaid style with the pallu stitched on.
In his earlier collections designer Satya Paul has used the palla as a drape or a cape or to double up as a blouse. Anamika Khanna twisted the palla into a rope like effect and clasped it at the shoulder with a piece of embroidery. Niki Mahajan gave her sari-skirt a panelled look which is form-hugging.
While the skirt was iron-pleated, the palla had pin tucks in asymmetric lines. Tarun Tahiliani chose to embellish his frothy chiffon creations with coloured feathers on the palla edging. JJ Valaya added faux fur trimming to the sari and married it to Mexican faux leather fringes.
Crushed, ruched pallas, Swarovski set against jigsaw prints in different tones were also seen.
Malini Ramani showed shaded diva saris with prints as varied as Moghul vases, maps of India and the Indian paisley motif. Net ruffles made an appearance on the edges giving the sari a dress-like flounce.
It would be Mera Gaon Mera Desh. It had emotions that were so real. Dad was amazing in it. I would love to do his role in a remake if I could! I think dad also has an amazing sense of comedy as you saw in Chupke Chupke, and pathos as you saw in Satya kam. I said earlier he is one actor who could do any kind of roles, and he never got his due.
People couldn't see beyond his dazzling looks and physique. But he really didn't care, because that lack of recognition by the film industry was more than compensated by the adoration and love of millions of fans worldwide.
You should have seen the people when he came for the stage shows in Vancouver - people went crazy, removed their turbans and hats to honor him and gave him a standing ovation. I couldn't care less if I didn't go down in the annals of film history as the greatest actor alive. If there is anything that I want, its that kind of love from the masses.

Quintana victorious in comeback
By Rey Colón -The Sport Press
Former WBO welterweight champion Carlos "El Indio" Quintana successfully returned to the ring to stop Yorgi Estrella by TKO at :38 of round nine. Referee Luis Pabon intervened with Estrella in bad shape and just taking shots. Quintana, who had not fought since losing to WBC welterweight king Andre Berto in April last year, returned this time in the junior middleweight division where he hopes to stay for a while before going up to 160 pounds.
On the undercard, Jonathan 'Mantequilla' González, Thomas Dulorme and Luis Orlando del Valle successfully defended their unbeaten marks with stoppage wins. Junior middleweight Gonzalez raised his record to 12-0 with 12 KOs after a 2:49 first round demolition of Chad Greenleaf (13-8 -1). Dulorme (9-0, 8 KOs) finished Jorge Delgado at 49 seconds of the second round. Del Valle (12-0, 10 KOs) knocked out Irvin Hernandez (2-4-1, 1 KO) at 2:49 of the sixth round.
Highly touted former Olympian jr lightweight Jose Pedraza successfully debuted with a first round KO over Felix Manuel Rivera. Pedraza is promoted by Universal Promotions in conjunction with Lou DiBella and Gary Shaw.

Social Graduate Program
What is a graduate assistantship, and how do I obtain one?
Students who are funded on department assistantships are assigned to a faculty member and are required to assist that faculty member in his/her research and teaching responsibilities. A full assistantship requires 20 hours per week. Assistantships are scarce and are awarded on a merit basis. Although assistantship assignments are made anew each spring, students entering the program with only a BA/BS are typically funded for the first four years of their graduate studies, except under special circumstances. Students entering the program with an MA degree in psychology are typically funded for the first two years. However, having an assistantship does not automatically insure that it will be continued for the full funding period. Also, assistantship duties may change as a function of changes in Graduate School funding operations. Some assistants (post MA degree) may be assigned to teach classes on their own rather than assisting faculty.
Unfortunately, the Social Program rarely (if ever) has control over enough resources to fund all of our incoming students. Students who do not receive assistantships are encouraged to seek other funding sources both within and outside the university. The program faculty are committed to helping such students in any way that we can. However, we also strongly encourage unfunded students to get involved in a faculty member's research as soon as possible in their first year.
How long does the program usually take?
The doctoral program is designed to be a four year course of study. In practice, although a few students have completed the program within that time frame, most have taken about five to six years. The Graduate School has established an eight year time limit for students entering with a Bachelor's degree, and a six year time limit for students entering with a Master's degree. Although the time line for meeting various requirements will vary somewhat for each student, it is important for students to complete requirements within a reasonable time frame.
The terminal Master's program is intended to be a two year course of study. However, it is recognized that with some overload it can be completed in less time, or with some part-time study it will naturally take longer. However, no student may take longer than five years to complete the program.
Tell me more about the doctoral candidacy exam and the dissertation process.
The dissertation represents the culmination of one's graduate study. Writing a dissertation is an opportunity to draw upon all of one's knowledge and experience while making an original contribution to general knowledge and/or the solution to some social problem. After finishing the candidacy exam, students are well prepared for this task. In fact, students typically formulate their exam areas with an eye toward their relevance for the dissertation. For example, a student may have in mind the possibility of evaluating a school health education program as a dissertation topic. For the candidacy exam, the student might then select: integration of theories about communication and persuasion for the theoretical area, school health education as the applied specialty area, questionnaire design for the method area, and path analysis or structural equation modeling for the statistical area.
For more information on the doctoral process, please download the handbook, or contact the Graduate Program Director here.

" Address: Avenida Cid Campeador 2 / 09006 / Burgos / Spain "
Hotel Cabildo is located in the centre of Burgos, a historic town in Northern Spain.
We paid the 'walk in from the street' price of 56 euros per night, room only.
Breakfast is available at extra cost. The hotel does have car parking facilities, either in the open car park behind the hotel or at a special rate in a public car park. Parking is quite pricey at 14 euros per night, however this seemed to be the case throughout the town.
The entrance to Hotel Cabildo is somewhat confusing, as what appears to be the entrance is actually the back of the hotel, with a sign directing you to a different street for the entrance. It's not immediately apparent where to go, but we found it without too much difficulty.
The reception area is very welcoming, brightly lit and has a very modern feel.
The majority of the mid-range hotels in Burgos all seemed to charge around the same rate (50 to 60 euro per night). For the price, this was one of the more 'swanky' looking places and we were very impressed.
We got a double room, which was very spacious and comfortable., Everything was in excellent condition and well presented. The room had a very modern, new feel to it. The room comprised a double bed, flat screen TV, desk and chair and large wardrobe. We were provided with 4 bottles of water.
The bathroom was very impressive. Ornate sinks and a huge bathtub, and what impressed us most of all - the freebies! A full complimentary set of goodies including shower gel, shampoo, a comb, a shaving set, shoe polisher etc...
Internet was available in the room at an extra charge, there was also an internet terminal at reception. The hotel has its own restaurant although we didn't eat there so can't comment. Room service was also available.
Reception staff were very friendly and we received very good service.
This was a good hotel for a short break, well located to see Burgos and good value. A very modern, clean, inviting place with a touch of luxury but without inflated prices.

What Did Twitter Change During the September Updates?
Twitter has yet again made changes that allow profiles to stand out. With the addition of header images, users can update the image and it will look the same across all Twitter platforms including Twitter.com, iPhones, Android phones, and iPads. If you've been a Twitter user for several years you may like being able to add a header image, but at the same time question its usefulness. Let's take a closer look at the latest Twitter changes and how to make the most of them.
iPad Update
The first change to discuss came in the form of an iPad update. While the update was said by Twitter to make the app faster and easier to use, it received a fair amount of criticism from iPad users who were not thrilled with the changes. Because the new app requires users to expand the Tweet to see links, videos, and photos it's been a big miss for the company.
Header Images
The biggest update though was the addition of header images. Header images appear at the top of the Twitter user's account and are supposed to allow users to get to know each other better. As mentioned above, the images will appear across all Twitter apps and the website. Twitter claims that users have "more to show" and the header image will make that possible. For example, if you enjoy crafts, your background image might be that of crochet needles and your header image may be of a completed project.
How to Change Your Header Image
The header design is easy to change by visiting the settings menu and selecting, "Design". Towards the middle of the screen, you will see the option to upload your image. Images should be 1252 x 626 megapixels and a maximum of 5MB in size. Once your image is uploaded, you can choose to zoom in on the picture to focus on the most important part of the photo. Obviously, you should keep other rules in mind when adding your image. The photo should not be risque or offensive. You should also own the copyrights to the image.
While Twitter has made the latest updates sound important, many users think that the company could have spent the time and resources creating more useful updates. However, the latest header image update does make it possible to add an additional level of personality to your account. Whether you want to show your support for your favorite football team or add a picture of your pet, the header image will certainly allow you to share more with the Twitter community.
About the Author: Dane Lutton loves using social media and keeps careful track of changes in the rules and terms. He is a communications specialist who helps business owners with pbx and VoIP services.

Britain's best sailor Ben Ainslie yesterday accepted a place on Team New Zealand for the America's Cup in 2007, dealing a damaging blow to the British challenge which has yet to get its act together. "I was approached by GBR Challenge but nothing much looked to be happening," he said.
Ainslie will join his friend Dean Barker, the New Zealand skipper in 2003, in the Emirates Team New Zealand boat. "I have assurances that I will be doing what I want to do," he said yesterday.
He added that the team's managing director Grant Dalton was "willing to give me a shot at steering, participate in the match-racing circuit, and see how it works out". Ainslie has always held out for a steering role and left the OneWorld campaign last time because he was excluded from it.
His move will further blunt the chances of a British challenge raising the necessary funds, a prospect already hit by the decision of Ainslie's fellow Olympic gold medallist, Iain Percy to join an Italian Cup campaign. "I want to sail for Britain in future, but it just doesn't look good right now," said Ainslie.
He denied that money was a reason for his move. "I want to try to be successful in the America's Cup and this is a good opportunity," he said. Ainslie was speaking from Athens where he is training in his quest for more gold in August - and where one of his training partners is Barker.

Dear Marriage Supporter,
Marriage matters because kids deserve a mom and a dad. You've heard me say this again and again. And you've also heard me explain that this isn't a difficult concept or theory to grasp: I've said over and over that it is simply common sense.
But when you look around the world today, and increasingly in our own country — especially over the past few weeks — it can be tough to fathom how, if that is really "common sense," so many people manage to discard or ignore it. How can so many folks in our country — ordinary citizens, judges, state legislators — seem to see the matter of marriage so differently from us and from how it's been known in almost every country for all time, if it truly is a matter of "common sense"?
Well, perhaps to them the phrase 'common sense' might not mean what we think it means. The philosopher Heraclitus noted that, "While wisdom is common, many live as if they own their own wisdom." Put another way, common sense is still common sense even when it seems to be getting uncommon.
This is more than a play on words. It's a paradox that identifies the nature of Truth itself. The writer G.K. Chesterton once likened common sense to someone coming to a gate in the road that they don't understand, but assuming it was put there for a purpose even if they don't necessarily know what that purpose is. Common sense would say to respect the gate and leave it intact. The lack of common sense would be tearing down the gate even though you didn't understand why it was there in the first place.
That is what we're seeing today. Many people in our culture have failed to understand marriage in the first place, and are dangerously attempting to destroy it based on their lack of understanding. They're crashing a gate, as it were, without ever having understood what it was built to protect in the first place: and that's a very foolish and dangerous thing to do, no matter how many people are doing it.
But nevertheless there are glimpses of the Truth all around us, of common folks who still possess enough common sense to know what marriage was designed to do and why it should be built up and strengthened rather than torn down and trampled.
How many folks still have that common sense? Quite a few, actually.
We've seen this common sense most recently in Hawaii where over ten thousand people came out in peaceful and prayerful protest against their legislature's decision to redefine marriage. In fact, we know that it is the vast majority of Hawaiians, and by no means the minority, who know that marriage is the union of one man and one woman — who know that marriage matters because the love of a mom and the love of a dad are equally invaluable to the well-being of a child. We know that a strong majority of Americans believe that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. We asked voters this question on Election Day 2012, and 60% agreed with the traditional definition of marriage. But you don't read that much in the media. We also know it from the overwhelming majority of votes that have been cast in states across America when voters have been given the opportunity to vote on marriage (something the people of Hawaii were sadly denied.)
We've seen this common sense in California as well. There, over six hundred thousand people have united with the Privacy for All Students campaign to protest the dangerous "Bathroom Bill" that Governor Brown signed into law mandating that schoolboys and schoolgirls can use any facilities they choose regardless of biological sex. They know that it isn't a good idea to let any high school guy go in and shower with the girls in his class just because he feels like it. They know that eroding the unique and special roles and differences between boys and girls means eroding those differences between men and women as they relate to children — in other words, it means saying there's nothing special about moms and dads, manhood or womanhood, but both are just amorphous and replaceable 'parental figures.'
We've seen this common sense in the African American pastors in Illinois who bravely fought over the past year to rally their congregations against the same-sex marriage bill which the legislature ended up ramming through anyway. And we'll see this common sense again when the Illinois voters have their chance to let the legislature know (through elections) how they feel about that decision!
We've seen this common sense in the legislators in Washington, D.C. — both in the Senate and in the House, and especially House Speaker John Boehner — who have taken a stand against the Employee Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) because they know that laws based on shifty and liquid definitions like "sexual orientation" or "gender identity" are ill-conceived and dangerous. They know that such laws are bound to be used as fulcrums for bullying tactics and litigation against folks like you and me who believe in marriage and in the complementarity of men and women.
So I'm writing to you today to encourage you to take heart and to stand strong, rooted in common sense — in Truth, and in Wisdom. This wisdom is still more common than it seems sometimes, and that should give us hope.
But even when it looks like common sense is becoming less and less common, these truths we've come to know remain just as true and just as good. We know why marriage matters: we know it is a gate built by God for a reason. And we'll continue together to defend it from being torn down by those who "live as if they own their own wisdom" — which is not wisdom at all.
Brian S. Brown
P.S.: Please consider making a donation to NOM today to help us share the common sense truth about marriage with as many people as possible. Whatever you can give — be it $25 or $250 — will be an aid to us in this final quarter of the year as we pay off expenses and prepare for the year beyond and some hard fights ahead — fights we plan to win! Be a part of that victory — please give today!

2 Attachment(s)
Hello we just rescued a 9 week old German shepherd mix pup yesterday. She was spayed and has her first set of shots. We have her first vet appointment next Tuesday.
My question is about chew toys. We have 4-5 kong toys from our previous dog, a shar-pei. I cleaned them and stuffed some with treats and some with puppy food but she doesn't seem interested.? Now she loved her little rawhide bone but I don't want her to have that all the time because of the chance of it causing diarrhea. What are some good chew toys that are appropriate for her age. She has lots of play toys but I know not to put those jn the crate.
She will also be starting puppy obedience school in two weeks. Any tips or advice someone wants to give to a new puppy own would be greatly appreciated. Attachment 26881Attachment 26889

my dogs have always likes ropes, and tennis balls. The rope will come in handy when she starts teething. Make sure your shows get looked away lol Good luck shes a pretty girl
She's so cute, good luck!
We like planet dog toys, you can get @ target or target.com for fairly reasonable!
What did you put in the kongs? Fezzik couldn't figure it out when I stuffed them with solid treats, but he has mastered the art of licking out peanut butter or canned cheese. :)
What a sweetie :)
We also started out with peanut butter in the kongs at that age :)
Thanks tried the peanut butter and she wasn't crazy about it . Though she's doing really well with her nylabones.

Lisl isn't crazy about her Kong toy even when it has doggy cheeze-whiz stuffed inside.
Sometimes she'll chase it if I roll it across the floor (rolls in a circle), but she doesn't seem to have much interest in it.
She's way cute. Mine wasn't to crazy about the kong either at that age. Than when she hit about 4, 4.5 month's she was like ohh this thing isn't so bad, and she loves her kong, she's now 7 months :)
Hi! Welcome & beautiful girl u have there.. spayed at 9 weeks old? Isn't that too soon? or is it common for rescues to do that to young pups too?
PS: Just so u know, I have started praying for the safety of your arms, legs, ankles!!!
We got her from animal services (humane society) and they do all the pets that young unless there are health issues.
I have been checking out all those thread and have gotten a lot of info. Also thanks for the prayers can you also pray for my flip flops lol.

/// Go Daddy on SOPA
December 23, 2011 | All Things Digital
The debate about the contents of this bill, and its companion bill in the Senate, the PROTECT IP Act, has been heated in recent weeks, as companies within the Internet ecosystem have rallied to lobby against the passage of legislation which might hold us accountable. That myopic view has never been shared by Go Daddy. – From a statement made available Thursday on its Web site, by Go Daddy Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary Christine Jones

The United Nations' (UN) World Day of Social Justice is yearly celebrated on February 20 to cheer people to note that how social justice have an effect on paucity abolition. Social justice has been at the hub of communal safety expansions for more than a century. Social security systems defend people against the dangers of life, thus strengthening social unity, constancy and harmony. The World Day distinguishes that civilization must be supported by social justice, a high opinion for human rights and essential freedoms – and on the right to communal guard for all. It also centres on the objective of attaining full employment and support for communal incorporation.
The World Summit for Social Development was organized in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1995 and turned in the Copenhagen Declaration and Programme of Action. At this summit, more than 100 political leaders vowed to make the subjugation of poverty, paucity and full employment, in addition to steady, protected and just societies as their superseding objectives. They furthermore decided on the requirement to put populace at the center of expansion strategy.
Almost 10 years afterwards, the UN's member nations evaluated the Copenhagen Declaration and Programme of Action when they congregated at a sitting of the Commission for Social Development in New York in February 2005. They also decided to entrust to press on social growth. On November 26, 2007, the UN General Assembly named February 20 as the yearly World Day of Social Justice. The day was planned to be first observed in 2009.
Member nations were asked to dedicate this individual day to the encouragement of solid nationwide activities in agreement with the objectives and aims of the World Summit for Social Development and the twenty-fourth conference of the General Assembly, entitled "World Summit for Social Development and beyond: attaining social growth for all in a globalizing world".
As documented by the World Summit, social growth focuses on social justice, unity; agreement and parity inside and amid countries and social fairness, impartiality and equity compose the essential morals of all societies. To attain "a society for all" governments made an assurance to the formation of a structure for accomplishment to encourage social impartiality at national, regional and international stages. They furthermore vowed to support the evenhanded sharing of income and better access to resources by the means of fairness and impartiality and a chance for all. The administration acknowledged as well that financial expansion must support equity and social impartiality and that "a society for all" has got to be maintained on communal justice and high opinion for all human rights and fundamental freedoms.
The adherence of the day should add to the supplementary consolidation of the labors of the global community in poverty abolition, encouragement of full employment and decent work, sex equity and access to social happiness and fairness for all.
Many associations, counting the UN and the International Labour Office, make declarations on the significance of social justice for populace. Many unions furthermore present plans for better social justice by dealing with poverty, social and economic elimination and joblessness. Trade unions and movement groups are requested to call on their members and followers to mark the day. The Russian General Confederation of Trade Unions affirmed that the widespread motto would be "Social Justice and Decent Life for All!".
Schools, colleges and universities may arrange singular activities for the day or sketch out a week of events and activities revolving around a subject connected to poverty, social and economic omission or unemployment. Diverse media, together with radio and television stations, newspapers and Internet sites, can give concentration to the topics about the World Day of Social Justice.
It is expected that exacting coverage is given to the associations between the illegal trade in diamonds and armed conflicts, predominantly in Africa, and in the significance of the International Criminal Court. This is an autonomous court that performs trials of people indicted of genocide, crimes in opposition to human race and war crimes.

Per Mertesacker is far better than the critics would have you believe.
That's the verdict of Arsène Wenger nearly three months after he bolstered his back four with the Germany international.
Mertesacker has been a virtual ever-present since signing from Werder Bremen just before the transfer deadline and Wenger believes he brings qualities that have gone unrecognised.
"I feel people have been harsh in their judgement," said the manager.
"I like Per very much, because he is a very intelligent boy and reads the game very well. He has a calming influence, a commanding influence.
"Because he is so tall, sometimes if he looks less impressive in one situation, people make a definite negative judgement.
"But he grows stronger in every game and we watched him again in Germany against Holland in midweek, and he had an outstanding performance. I am really happy with him."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Cryptorchidism | German Shepherd
Derived from the Greek words crypto – meaning "hidden" and orchid – referring to the male testicles – cryptorchidisim is a congenital condition that, while not serious, could compromise your dog's chances at being considered "breed standard" in show. When German Shepherd dogs are born with cryptorchidism, either one or both testicles fail to descend into the scrotum area after developing in the dog's abdomenal area. The causes of cryptorchidism tend to be genetic – meaning that your German Shepherd dog has probably inherited the disease from one or both of his parents. To avoid getting a dog with cryptorchidism, make sure you buy your German Shepherd dog from a reliable breeder who actively avoids spreading mutations within his or her population.
If you have adopted your German Shepherd dog from a rescue shelter, and he is missing both of his testicles, it is possible that he has been castrated at birth, rather than suffering from cryptorchidism, as in some cases of cryptorchidism it is possible for German Shepherd dogs to have both testicles undescended. It is not uncommon for owners to be unaware that the problem of cryptorchidism exists in their German Shepherd dog, and thus to spend many years not noticing the issue until it is brought to their attention by a veterinarian.
Luckily, cryptorchidism does not present immediate health problems or threats to German Shepherd dogs. However, it is highly advisable to have the undescended testicle removed as soon as possible from the abdomenal tissue, as the presence of the testicle does increase your German Shepherd dog's risk of cancer or other illnesses later in life. It is also highly recommended that you neuter your dog so that the crytorchidism does not spread into the next generation of German Shepherd puppies. This should be a simple procedure performed by a veterinarian.

Konrad B. Krauskopf was born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin and earned a B.S. in chemistry from University of Wisconsin in 1931. He then earned a Ph.D. in chemistry at the University of California in Berkeley. When the Great Depression made jobs in chemistry scarce, Professor Krauskopf decided to study geology, which had long fascinated him. Through additional graduate work at Stanford University, he earned a second Ph.D. and eventually a position on the Stanford faculty. He remained at Stanford until his retirement in 1976. During his tenure, Professor Krauskopf also worked at various times with the U.S. Geological Survey, served with the U.S. army in occupied Japan, and traveled to Norway, France, and Germany on sabbatical leaves. His research interests included field work on granites and metamorphic rocks and laboratory study on applications of chemistry to geologic problems, especially the formation of ore deposits. In recent years, Professor Krauskopf had spent time working with various government agencies on the problem of radioactive waste disposal.

Amanda Bynes Restores Her Driving Rights After 2012 Suspension
Taking another step forward with getting her life on track, Amanda Bynes got her driver's license back over the weekend.
According to People, the "She's the Man" actress was spotted driving with her father in Los Angeles on Sunday (April 20) and the DMV records show that she is legally allowed to drive again.
Amanda's license was suspended in 2012 after two hit-and-run charges and a DUI arrest.
A few months after her legal troubles, the 28-year-old started making headlines for her wild behavior and was eventually admitted to a mental hospital, where she sought treatment.
According to multiple sources, Amanda is doing much better and is still undergoing outpatient treatment to ensure she remains on track. "She continues to undergo outpatient therapy several times a week. She's still working through the causes of her past bizarre behavior," a source close to her family explained.

electrical question
I will be running electricity from the patio to a new garage(transfering same lights basically).It is about 12ft away.Will i have to use a seperate panel box or is the transfer ok since it will be basically same 2 lights.
It will be run underground .Does this usually require install/approval by certified electrician to pass codes,or can it be installed by the contractor?
Thanks for any info.
If you can, please supply photo's, showing the area were this work
will be done, so the other's can have a better understanding. Please note with
you photo all points of special interest, involving this electrical project.
Detached garage?
Just running lights or outlets too?
One circuit or two?
You can run 2 circuits as a MWBC
Check with your local building Dept to find out if you can do the work or have to hire an electrician. Usually a homeowner can do the work, BUT someone hired must be licensed to do the work. Local rules apply - so you need to check
Not very good questions, so the answers may not help.

Asus has been keeping pretty busy on the mobile front, so we decided to check in with Gary Key and the rest of the Asus team at CES 2012.
It's pretty clear that the original Eee Pad Transformer was one of my favorite Android tablets. They recently followed it up with the Transformer Prime, which has once again been updated to the Transformer Prime 700 series. It's got a better 1920x1080 high resolution display, as well as a design that should improve your wireless performance.
While we were hoping for a true seven-inch Eee Pad tablet, what we got instead were a couple of different Asus MeMo tablets. They're like Eee Pads, only smaller. Specs are still being finalized.
