I agree with this. I don't think guilt is a good reason to do much of anything, and I think that being clear in one's morals and honest with those around them is a good thing.
But I think it can be difficult to do that in way that still nurtures our relationships with people who feel differently than us and yet are important to us, such as our grown children. How to stay true to ourselves and yet still stay connected to those we love who feel differently is difficult.
I don't see the answer as simplistically as just avoiding saying anything that another could take offense at, because staying true to ourselves still needs to be part of it. It's a dilemma.
Smokering, I'm sure we have more in common than we have different, even though we have different perspectives on this difficult and devise issue.
but everything has pros and cons
She wasn't saying having kids makes one a moral authority. The point is that it is surprising that MDCers cannot understand grief and offer support for that instead of turning the conversation into a debate on abortion or morality.

Family Law Questions? Ask a Family Lawyer Online.
If the alimony is set forth in the divorce decree, then the only way he can get it reduced or terminated is if he shows the court a substantial change in his financial circumstances (for the worse). Just because he does not want to pay that amount of money any longer is not a good enough reason for the court to reduce or eliminate alimony payments. You should answer the action in writing -- you can do a one page answer from scratch and put the name of the case on the top of the page with the case number XXXXX title it "Answer". Then, using numbered paragraphs you need to respond to each one of his numbered paragraphs in the complaint. Then you close the answer by stating that "since the plaintiff cannot show any substantial change in financial circumstances, the alimony award should not be reduced at this time". Then you sign it, put your address and telephone number at the bottom and file a copy with the court and send a copy to your ex-husband. The court should then schedule a hearing on the matter.

JPMorgan suspends stock repurchase plans
NEW YORK – JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon says the bank is suspending plans to buy back its own stock.
Dimon said Monday the bank will continue to pay a dividend despite the $2 billion trading loss disclosed on May 10.
"It's an embarrassment, it's a black mark," Dimon said of the trading loss. He also said the bank's balance sheet was "barely nicked" by the loss.
Speaking at a conference Monday organized by Deutsche Bank, Dimon said JPMorgan (JPM) is preparing for new international regulations that force banks to hold more capital to prepare for economic downturns. JPMorgan's was scheduled to buy back $15 billion shares through the end of the first quarter of 2013.
Dimon's announcement is an about-face from earlier statements. At a meeting with investors on Monday, Dimon had said buying back stock helps the company meet regulatory requirements quicker.
"I don't mind the low stock price," Dimon had said then. The bank had bought a lot of stock back in 2011 at $36.
Usually, the bank buys back the shares it issues for employee stock-based incentive awards.

It is the nature of men to act negatively but to dream and hope positively.Edmund Cooper
When I sit down to make a sketch from nature, the first thing I try to do is to forget that I have ever seen a picture.John Constable
Good nature without prudence, is foolishness.Proverb
Men go back to the mountains, as they go back to sailing ships at sea, because in the mountains and on the sea they must face up, as did men of another age, to the challenge of nature. Modern man lives in a highly synthetic kind of existence. He specializes in this and that. Rarely does he test all his powers or find himself whole. But in the hills and on the water the character of a man comes out.Abram T. Collier
We need to renegotiate our contract with nature. Ecology is a unifying force that can diminish intolerance and expand our empathy towards othersboth human and animal.Gregory Colbert
In the long term, the economy and the environment are the same thing. If it's unenvironmental it is uneconomical. That is the rule of nature.Mollie Beatty†

He who knows how to be aggressive, and yet remains patient, becomes a receptacle for all of Nature's lessons.Lao Tzu
Nature has given the opportunity of happiness to all, knew they but how to use it.Claudius Claudianus
Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.†Annie Leibovitz
Men are always more inclined to pitch their estimate of the enemy's strength too high than too low, such is human nature.Carl von Clausewitz
God gives us intelligence to uncover the wonders of nature. Without the gift, nothing is possible.James Clavell
Through my LSD experience and my new picture of reality, I became aware of the wonder of creation, the magnificence of nature and of the animal and plant kingdom. I became very sensitive to what will happen to all this and all of us.Albert Hofmann
It is human nature to stand in the middle of a thing.Marianne Moore
Politicians of all stripes are always in danger at looking at every problem from an abstract point of view or being briefed by officials, academics, or economists who know every science but the science of human nature.Joseph Jacques Jean Chrtien

If some of these questions hit home and you are realizing that you are not as comfortable as you would like to be and deserve to be, we suggest considering some of the following ideas while you are adjusting:
Also, please consider using our free, confidential services -- even if you are not sure if counseling is what you need. With a counselor's help, you can discuss alternatives and decide the best way to proceed. Insensitivity to others and discrimination in any form is inconsistent with Loyola's mission and values.

"You're invited December 31 to the rawest fucking New Year's Eve party! Leave the expensive hype and boring shit to the amateurs...bounce your ass all over the dance floor." I'm willing to bet that this is not how Dick Clark envisions a "rockin' New Year's Eve." In fact, the only thing about RockBar that might seem the least bit familiar to Clark is the '70s decor: pin-tucked booths, foil wallpaper, floor-to-ceiling mirrors, neon back-lit wall plaques commemorating iconic rock bands like AC/DC and Led Zeppelin, and a parquet dance floor begging for bouncing asses. If hindquarter hopping isn't your thing, the vintage arcade games -- Ms. Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and Frogger -- should keep you entertained. Since RockBar is tucked into the first floor of the All-Inn, I tucked into an All-Inn cocktail ($5), made with well vodka, gin, tequila, rum, triple sec, MD 20/20 Strawberry Banana and a splash of sweet-and-sour served in a huge pint glass; it tasted like a Long Island Iced Tea with Mad Dog. I preferred the Apple Mad Dog Martini ($6), made with well vodka, MD 20/20 Sour Apple and a splash of Apple Pucker. While ordering another round, I noticed that the Nativity scene above the bar had the three wise men in KISS makeup and a Pabst Blue Ribbon can as the baby Jesus. Rock on! But don't get mad: Just head to RockBar on New Year's, when you'll enjoy a complimentary Mad Dog toast at midnight.

OTTAWA — NDP brass are taking a second shot at jettisoning some of the socialist baggage that many — including Leader Tom Mulcair — feel might hold them back in the next federal election.
A committee of senior NDP members is recommending the party modernize its guiding statement by making it less ideological and dropping most of its many references to socialism.
A proposed rewrite of the opening lines of the NDP constitution was sent to party members Wednesday, in advance of next week's policy convention in Montreal.
At the last convention two years ago, attempts to do away with the word socialist from the preamble split the rank-and-file, even though the idea was endorsed by former leader Jack Layton.
[related_links /]
The existing statement outlines the "principles of democratic socialism," including the concepts of "social ownership," "social planning," and the idea that goods and services should be directed toward…

Swat (princely state)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Swat (Urdu: ریاست سوات) was a princely state and is now part of Pakistan. Swat was part of the Mughal Empire ruled by local Gujar rulers known as Akhoond or Akhwand. From 1926 until 1947, Swat was a princely state in British Raj, and in 1947 it acceded to Pakistan. It lay to the north of the modern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa of Pakistan until it was dissolved in 1969. It incorporated the current states of Swat, Buner and Shangla.

Krystal and George's Wedding
"We hired Leslie and Doug from Charleston Photo Video for our wedding on 5/7/10. We purchased a package deal with them to include coverage of our rehearsal dinner, pre wedding preparations, and full wedding coverage. Night of the rehearsal dinner, Leslie and Doug never showed and never called, we had to call them. They stated that they were "sick" and would not make it, but didn't want to call us because they didn't want to upset us. They were late to the pre-wedding preparations and were extremely unprofessional at the wedding. My husband and I were NOT happy with the pictures that were supposedely edited, to include a picture of my matron of honor with her panties showing. They were difficult to work with and unwilling to give us our money back when requested for not showing up to the rehearsal dinner. If you look at the Better Business Bureau, they already have 8 complaints against them. BUYER BEWARE... do not let them do to your day what they did to ours."
Jami and Steve's Wedding
"Leslie and Doug do fantastic work. There are several issues that we had and continue to have with them. One is their general business practices. They weren't very proactive when it came to calling and confirming things, they were a little scatterbrained, and we still have not received our wedding albums (and at this point we have been married 7 months). When they sent us our bridal portraits they didn't package them very well and they were all so wrinkled that we will have to purchase more in order to hang them in our home. Which ends up being an extra cost to us. I have designed my own wedding album and can have it in my hand in 7-10 days but they continue to tell me that it will take "months" for the printer to get the albums done. I proposed that I could purchase the albums I designed and extra portraits for a small refund ($300) but in response I got not one but 2 nasty emails back from them not addressing the questions that I asked or the proposal I made, just them being defensive. They also accused me of giving a nasty review of them on wedding wire (website) but I had never heard of that website - I will gladly sign all of my reviews. I have been honest and up front in all of them. If you are a bride and groom that don't care about time lines and strong business practices, feel free to hire them..."

Latest Product Reviews For EcoBed Cardboard Bedding 20kg
Brilliant - , Staffordshire,
Fantastic stuff. We used this stuff in the nursing cages when we bred fancy rats, we would use it as it was dust free and kept down smells.
Lightweight, absorbent, excellent value - Marianne,
I bought my first bag for the pullets in my 2 tier rabbit hutch several weeks ago & am nowhere near running out. The product goes a long way. It's clean & dust free, doesn't pack down too much so offers some insulation. I still use straw in the bed area as it gets pretty cold at night where I live but on the whole it looks like it's comfortable underfoot, doesn't get soggy, easy enough to clean out without being wasteful. I'll definitely stick with it when the pullets go into their big aviary.
- Barbara,
My four ducks are dry and comfortable on this bedding. There is also no dust and odours are reduced. very happy with the product.
- Kimberly,
I've actually just bought my second bag. I usually need to re-buy every 6 months which is absolutely brilliant. Completely dust free which is brilliant for my super sensitive rats.
Excellent product - Barrie,
Eco bedding is excellent for my pet hairless ratties as this product is very safe for them.

My routine - I co wash every other day with Trader Joe's Tea tree tingle conditioner. Once a week, I shampoo with Shea Moisture coconut hibiscus shampoo and follow with the Shea Moisture conditioner. Then I scrunch excess water out of my hair with my hands, apply mousse and scrunch dry with micro fiber towel. I've tried gel, but it weighs my hair down and the curls disappear when I scrunch put the crunch. Maybe I need to try a different gel. Sometimes I use Cantu hair shine spray on the ends because they get dry.
Today I tried diffusing my hair , but stopped halfway because it made it very pouffy. I will post a pic when it is totally dry.

The Supreme Court's decision in the healthcare case has brought new prominence to Congress's power to tax and spend for the general welfare under Article I, section 8, clause 1. Legislation under the spending power is often regarded as an artifact of the New Deal period. But the spending power has a longer history dating from the early nineteenth century.

Now to do the bows for the shoes, finish adding eyes and hooks onto the other bracelet, hair bow and to make the rose for the skirt. Wont be able to do much after that as need some cream fabric. Ill keep away from the skirt until then.
Skirt-backbow (Posted 12th September 2009)
No picture this time...sorry ^^;
Done the bow for the back of the skirt. Being a big one it took longer and was more of a bugger than I thought it would be. Its pinned onto the skirt on a mannequinn now and together it looked better than I expected. Im quite happy with it so yay.
Next...to either start again on the other bracelet or make the little bows for the top.
Skirt (Posted 8th September 2009)
The base of the orange overskirt is almost done. A bit more hemming to do. Afterwards I'll need to sew some cream/yellow ribbon on then attatch the bow and rose. I plan to use cotton too for the underskirt and maybe get some tulle for poofiness for added cuteness ^^
Microphone (Posted 7th September 2009)
I used a few layers of rolled paper for the shape and a shampoo bottle for sturdiness. I scrunched up some paper and added layers onto it for the rounded end. Going to keep putting paper mache over it until it becomes smooth.

Global village
"Global village" is a term closely associated with Canadian-born Marshall McLuhan,[1] popularized in his books The Gutenberg Galaxy: The Making of Typographic Man (1962) and Understanding Media (1964). McLuhan described how the globe has been contracted into a village by electric technology[2] and the instantaneous movement of information from every quarter to every point at the same time.[3]
Marshall McLuhan predicted the Internet as an "extension of consciousness" in The Gutenberg Galaxy: The Making of Typographic Man thirty years before its commercialization.[4]
The next medium, whatever it is it may be the extension of consciousness—will include television as its content, not as its environment, and will transform television into an art form.[4]
On the Internet, physical distance is even less of a hindrance to the real-time communicative activities of people, and therefore social spheres are greatly expanded by the openness of the web and the ease at which people can search for online communities and interact with others who share the same interests and concerns. Therefore, this technology fosters the idea of a conglomerate yet unified global community.[5] According to McLuhan, the enhanced "electric speed in bringing all social and political functions together in a sudden implosion has heightened human awareness of responsibility to an intense degree." [6] Increased speed of communication and the ability of people to read about, spread, and react to global news quickly, forces us to become more involved with one another from various social groups and countries around the world and to be more aware of our global responsibilities.[6][7] Similarly, web-connected computers enable people to link their web sites together. This new reality has implications for forming new sociological structures within the context of culture. Contemporary analysts question the causes of changes in community and its consequences some potentially new sociological structure. Most of them have pointed out the fact that the increased velocity of transactions has fostered interactional density, making social networks a technical catalyst for social change. Across the global village people have reached out and transcended their neighborhood. They are involved in complex community networks stretching across cities, nations, and oceans. Yet the ease with which telecommunications connect friends of friends may also increase the density of interconnections within already existing social clusters. Therefore, the global village's implications on sociological structures are yet to be found, whether it fosters cultural exchanges and openness or not.[8] Global village is also a term used to express the relation between macroeconomics and sociology throughout the world.
To global theatre[edit]
No chapter in Understanding Media, later books, contains the idea that the global village and the electronic media create unified communities. In fact, in an interview with Gerald Stearn,[9] McLuhan says that it never occurred to him that uniformity and tranquillity were the properties of the global village. McLuhan argued that the global village ensures maximal disagreement on all points because it creates more discontinuity and division and diversity under the increase of the village conditions. The global village is far more diverse.
After the publication of Understanding Media, McLuhan starts using the term "global theater" to emphasise the changeover from consumer to producer, from acquisition to involvement, from job holding to role playing, stressing that there is no more community to clothe the naked specialist.[10]
New Media[edit]
People used the computer to fit into an attached community in which they are not physically but mentally connected. A Review of General Semantics argues that media ecology and new media have unlimited the opportunity for who can create and view media texts.[11] Since mass media has been in effect, this has called for the westernization of the world hence the global village. Without the mass media in effect countries like India or Turkey wouldn't be living American lifestyle because they wouldn't have the knowledge of what the acquisitions of the American nation constitute. Since most of the developing countries acquired the news and entertainment from developed nations like the U.S, the information received is biased in favor of developed nations which connects the world in similarities within the media.[12]
In Marshall McLuhan's time the global village wasn't 24/7. Now with social media, people are constantly commenting on each other's posts as well as creating them to share with the multi-media global world. 55 percent of teens possess a social media profile.[13] Social media has connected people with jobs that they couldn't have received before because of their geographic location.[14] New social media has connected the world so cultures can be learned through interactions on social media as well as maintaining relationships from opposing countries.[15]

Notes and references[edit]
- ^ Wyndham Lewis's America and Cosmic Man (1948) and James Joyce's Finnegans Wake are sometimes credited as the source of the phrase, but neither used the words "Global Village" specifically. According to McLuhan's son Eric McLuhan, his father, a Joyce scholar and a close friend of Lewis, likely discussed the concept with Lewis during their association, but there is no evidence that he got the idea or the phrasing from either; McLuhan is generally credited as having coined the term.

Paula Deen's 'Today' Appearance Ends in Tears
NEW YORK (AP) - Paula Deen dissolved into tears during a "Today" show interview Wednesday about her admission that she used a racial slur in the past, saying anyone in the audience who's never said anything they've regretted should pick up a rock and throw it at her head.
The celebrity chef, who had backed out of a "Today" interview last Friday, said she wasn't a racist and was heartbroken by the controversy that began with her own deposition in a lawsuit. Deen has been dropped by the Food Network and as a celebrity endorser by Smithfield Foods.
"I've had to hold friends in my arms while they've sobbed because they know what's been said about me is not true and I'm having to comfort them," she said.
Deen told Lauer she could only recall using the "n-word" once. She had earlier said that she remembered using it when retelling a story about when she was held at gunpoint by a robber who was black while working as a bank teller in the 1980s in Georgia. In a deposition for the lawsuit involving an employee in a restaurant owned by Deen and her brother, she had said she may also have used the slur when recalling conversations between black employees at her restaurants.
Looking distressed and her voice breaking, Deen said if there was someone in the audience who had never said something they wished they could take back, "please pick up that stone and throw it as hard at my head so it kills me. I want to meet you. I want to meet you.
"I is what I is and I'm not changing," she said. "There's someone evil out there that saw what I worked for and wanted it."
An uncomfortable Lauer tried to end the interview, but Deen repeated that anyone who hasn't sinned should attack her.
Deen said she appreciated fans who have expressed anger at the Food Network for dropping her, but said she didn't support a boycott of the network.
"These people who have met me and know me and love me, they're as angry as the people who are reading these stories that are lies," she said.

you will also need to make a choice, either cut and narrow the dash, or get ready to trim and slim down the door panels since the dash is a little longer, I did the panels.
the switches are not hard to put over, and the heater controls (on non ac at east) fit right in to place from the rocco, also dome duct work will need to be done.
Get the lower parcel trays from the euro corrado non ac models, it looks better. There is a few more fine points but I guess you get the idea.
I installed miine without cutting or breaking any of the oem dash mounts, so I can always put the old one back, my oem dash was mint, I just wanted to have somehting different at the time.
The center console can be fitted as well but will also need some massaging.
I did it back in the days pre digital camera, so I will try and dig up some pics and scan them.
thanks for the interest!
found some pics and scanned them.....
old dash, still mint!
ok out with the dash
Trim and fit ....
final result
Issue was more the doors..
first trim the panels and made fiberglass inserts to mimic the corrado silouhette, then epoxy them in.ake the shape for the dash as well as the parcel trays
then I used a combination of epoxy and bumper putty to mold the new lower part I made from 1/4 inch particle board
then I wrapped the entire door in new vinyl
final product
and one old show pic just for fun!! Back in the early '90s, I found a ton of show pics, thank god it takes a while to scan them all, otherwise this thread would be overloaded!!

As vain as a vanity plate gets!
Confessions of a Vanity Handicapper
By bkuehn1952 on 9/14/10
We asked for readers to send in blog posts- and Brian Kuehn didn't disappoint. He kicked off our reader-writer series 3 weeks ago, checked in a week later - and now he's contributed his 3rd article. I'm starting to worry a little about my job security... :)
Most of us have a self-image and try hard to match reality with that image. Unfortunately, there is often a considerable gap between how we see ourselves and the truth so we create elaborate schemes to fool ourselves. Some resort to the "comb-over" to create a full head of hair. Others try to work unusual words into their conversations to appear more erudite (oops, caught me!). Right now I am working on pretending my waist line is not showing the start of a pot belly (suck that gut in, keep that shirt untucked!).
We golfers are especially susceptible to self-deception. Reliable authorities state that the average male golfer reports they hit their drives 250 yards yet the actual measured average is 200. Most of us fail in our attempt to hit a green by under-clubbing and coming up short. Why? Because we want to believe that we can hit that 7-iron 10 yards further than we really do. The best way for most of us to maintain the illusion that we are competent golfers, however, is through our handicap index.
Eons ago, when "woods" were made of wood and one could put a "smile" in a golf ball with a thinly hit 3-iron, I signed up for a handicap. My memory fails me but I think my first handicap was around 16 or 17 (no index back in those days). It became my overwhelming ambition to lower my handicap, so much so that I resorted to cooking the books, so to speak. Hit a ball out of bounds? What the heck, let's give ourselves a mulligan. Hit another out on the back nine and already used a mully? A mulligan-a-side sounds fair.
We all know how we rationalize going easy on ourselves by not counting casual missed 3-foot putts ("Oh, if I had taken time to line it up I would have made it"), improving lies in the sand ("If the guy before me had raked this, my lie would be perfect - I'll just nudge the ball over here"), and manufacturing rules ("Ball lost in the woods – drop in the rough and take a stroke"). I was guilty of all these and more. Frankly my only goal was lowering my handicap. Whether it was through practice or liberal interpretation of the Rules of Golf, I was determined to go low. And I succeeded.
My handicap slowly moved downward. I was actually getting better but some of the improvement could clearly be traced to my moral lassitude in relation to the Rules and the fixation on my index. About 5 years ago my index reached the point that I was almost eligible to attempt USGA Senior Open qualifying. Unfortunately, when I played golf without bending the rules, it was almost impossible to play to my handicap. It was embarrassing when people found out I was a "4" that couldn't break 80 regularly. The handicap index became a little black cloud that followed me around on the golf course. I was the golfing equivalent of a comb-over hairdo; I was a vanity handicapper.
We have all met the vanity handicapper. His handicap says 5.2 but his play is 10.7. There is rarely the round where he can't be heard saying to anyone that will listen, "I don't usually play this poorly." We witness all the tools of denial, from taking 4 foot gimmee's to improving a bad lie in the rough.
Well, I am happy to say that several years ago I was finally cured of my affliction. Playing in tournaments will do that. My 7.5 index typically works out to an 8 or 9 course handicap. I can actually play to or beat my handicap 20 or 25% of the time. My ball is played as it lies, whether in a divot-hole or in a foot print in the bunker. The Rules of Golf are adhered to at all times (except for the occasional 12 inch putt).
Don't get me wrong, I love vanity handicappers. They are good guys, even if slightly deluded as to the quality of their game. There will always a place for the vanity handicapper, preferably in my flight!
This was written by Brian Kuehn, a reader/follower/fellow oober and the opinions are 100% his and do not reflect those of oobgolf in anyway. Enjoy! I'm sure he's ready for your feedback.

I hear ya.
When I began playing I started fudgin a little bit here and there but after starting to record my stats I felt like it means nothing if the data is not clean.
Mulligans in, Mulligan out.

What they call a mulligan in Ireland? Lying three.

I'm a vanity handicaper. I say it's a 30, but it's really a 30.7.
birdieXris says:
Great post!
Banker85 says:
i know i was guilty, and probably still a little here and there. For the most part though i am with Kurt. I feel shame when i enter in a score i know is fudged. what is the point in that? My handicap is just above 10 now but really i feel like my scoring avg. 85 is more close to what my hcp should be 13.
Mr VanityHandicap says:
I propose an anti-vanity movement.......
lcgolfer64 says:
I'm with ya Banker, also playing on a 'home' course has it's advantages at least for my handicap. My GHIN is a 10.2 (Oob says I'm an 8) but I know reality is probably a 14-15. At 'home' I play in the 80's and have broke into the 70's because I know the course very well. Courses I have not ever or rarely ever played I'm pleased with mid 80's.
lcgolfer64 says:
In fact my last 4 scores on my home course (Par 71, 118 slope): 78-82-90-75
I'm actually almost the opposite, while I have yet to play a tournament, I'd rather NOT be a 10, yet alone an 8 handicap! I don't want to sandbag, but I sure don't want to be playing with guys that shoot 70's regularly on any course because I can do it on one course I've walked 30-40 times and know well, to make me a 10.2 handicap.
cjgiant says:
@lcgolfer - I have not found oob to be far off from a proper HC. I wonder if the 2+ stroke difference is a failure to use ESC when posting to GHIN.
Also, keep in mind your HC is not meant to measure your average, but your potential. There was a post about it recently (someone could provide a reference I am sure) describiing how HC appears to be skewed to benefit lower HC players (those 2 HC players averages are probably closer to their best 10 than yours or mine).
cjgiant says:
I have found myself almost apologizing for my index recently. I had a run of good scores less than 20 rounds ago, followed by a run of really ugly rounds. During the ugly run, my index didn't move, as no scores counted towards HC, and I hadn't dropped any of the good scores. I was in no way playing to an under-6 HC. So, I ended up truthfully indicating my HC, but saying I am playing worse at the moment. Guess that could be taken in a couple different ways, but most golfers who know about the HC system should understand.
MJKern44 says:
To be honest, I preferred when I didn't try and keep my handicap and just went out to play. Ever since myself and the guys I golf with started to keep the HC, it's all anyone talks about. As @cjgiant said, if you say you're a 9 and then go out and shoot an 88, you always have that feeling that someone is thinking you"re bulls***ing. Easier back in the day to say what you usually shot in terms of score than indicate a handicap. To that note, most people don't understand how the HC works, so if you say you're a 9-10, they think that means you should shoot 80-81-82 on every course regardless of slope or rating.
lcgolfer64 says:
You are absolutely right on point. This is my first year of officially keeping a GHIN handicap. And again you're correct, I didn't follow the procedure of using the ESC (something in me just didn't feel right typing in a '6' when I truly scored an '8')
Appreciate the follow-up - I'm pretty I recall reading the article you were referencing above on HC and its meaning of 'showing your golf potential.'
I think in short I was trying to say - I'm a completely streaky player and I think that a 13-15 HC would reflect my true golf game.
I joke and tell the regulars I play with when they notice I'm having a good round - Hey, you know me, I can blow-up at anytime! ;)
cjgiant says:
@lcgolfer - OOB will automatically ESC adjust for you, obviously. Do you record hole-by-hole on GHIN also? I kbnow they offer this and if so, they should adjust for you as well.
I think GHIN has some serious issues as a site from a usability point of view, I only wonder if they lack as well in the "business logic" behind the scenes. If you post totals in GHIN only, you can look on OOB at your score, and scroll down to the ESC Score row and grab that total. If you ever plan on using your HC for competitive reasons, it's the fair thing to do.
lcgolfer64 says:
@gjgiant - Oob is great, I like the scoring system and all the stats here.
On GHIN I only enter the total. I did not know that hole-by-hole was even an option on GHIN - I'll have to check in to that. Agree on the usability, had issues trying to enter scores on several occassions.
I'll start grabing the ESC totals here, as I would like to try and play in a couple of smaller local tourneys here this fall.
Thanks again for the insight.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- The UAB women's soccer team fell 2-1 to Conference USA opponent SMU on Sunday afternoon at West Campus Field. The Blazers are 3-9-1 overall and 0-4-1 in conference action.
"We did well with ball possession and created a few opportunities," head coach Harold Warren said. "We started in the hole and it's tough to get out of, but the girls fought and scored a goal. I thought we played well."
SMU (8-5-1, 4-1-1) scored a pair of goals in a two-minute span in the first half. Sophomore Courtney Smith assisted both goals, as she served senior Kaitlyn Eidson who fired the shot past UAB keeper CJ Winship in the 17th minute for the first goal. Close to the 19-minute mark Smith directed a free kick into the box where sophomore Katie Bass headed the ball into the back of the net to put the Mustangs up, 2-0.
The Blazers got on the board late in the first half thanks to a pass by sophomore Sam Bradford into the goalie box where Turpin snuck the ball behind Mustang goalie Courtney Webb.
UAB created several scoring opportunities in the contest and almost netted the equalizer near the 71-minute mark. Senior Pascale Pinard launched a pass through the box to freshman Megan Collins who headed the ball just wide of the goal.
The Blazers' defense made several key plays in the match. SMU junior Kenzie Scovill had a clear path to the net in the 29th minute when UAB's Jasmine Kauka made a textbook slide tackle to take the ball away.
In the second half, freshman Mary Catherine Combs laid her body down to block a shot attempted by the Mustang's Shelby Redman inside the box.
Despite the loss, UAB matched SMU in total shots (7) and corner kicks (2).
UAB continues conference action when it hosts Colorado College on Friday, Oct. 14. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. CT.


text: Project Description In its first Caribbean project, SOSH Architects effectively blended South Beach sophistication with a relaxed tropical vibe to create an outstanding destination casino. The firm worked within the existing structure to create a seamless flow between the new gaming space and the resort's existing restaurant and poolside areas. The unassuming exterior with its standing seam metal roof and white stucco façade is offset by a color-changing LED light display at night. Diverging from traditional casino design, the bar and lounge area is surrounded by windows to optimize stunning marina views. This state-of-the-art casino has become a fast favorite of guests looking for a quick island getaway. Resort owners were so pleased with the casino's success; they expanded the master plan to include an outdoor day/nightlife amenity and 150-room hotel.

Ive never seen so many women with multiple baby daddies. Even met sisters with the same baby daddy. Even mom and daughter with the same baby daddy, best friends with the same baby daddy. You lowlife chicks like spreading the love, dont you?
#2 Sep 24, 2010
The guys with all different babies Momma's... there's alot of low life guys too!!
#3 Sep 24, 2010
You must be one of those single chicks with 7 last names on your mailbox for the last names of your children. How many times you gonna keep falling for "damn baby you gotta a nice onion?" Close your butt cheeks and raise that future crew of burger flippers the best you can.

Maybe cause the men out there nowadays aren't worth keeping around or walk away from their obligations! most of those gals are just looking for a love that will last and the guys turn out to be cheating or lying scum and the women have to move on. Truth is, a single woman with a kid or kids is easy picking for men that prey on women just to use them. And once they are single with even one little kid they aren't exactly going to attract the cream of the crop as far as guys go! Most normal guys want a girl without kids to begin with, let's face it. So these women end up getting used and lied to and the cycle repeats. It would be nice if everyone had enough restraint to never have sex with someone until a few years passed and they knew the person well enough to be absolutely sure they were worthy, but that is unrealistic and doesn't happen in the real world. Guys included!
#9 Sep 24, 2010
"what about" is a gay guy. I let him use one of my sheep and a pair of my large rubber boots. He sure can squeal like a pig!
#10 Sep 24, 2010
I read you comment and wanted to respectfully respond (unlike so many of the responses on Topix) Yes many sperm donors (not real men) do the deed and run away from their responsibilities, however, don't paint the women as victims. After all the woman has the final decision as to spread her legs or not. Remember SHE also has an obligation for financial support of that child. Yes, single women with kids are at a disadvantage (in my mind, anyway) so that being said, Ladies, why put yourself in that position???
Why is it always painted as the women being the victim??? Maybe the guys should be painted as the victim (assuming that he has a job and actually pays to feed his child). How many of these women have multiple children with multiple men for multiple child support payments? 17% of the income for one, 20% for two, 25% for three, you get my drift? Are they just cash cows?
#11 Sep 24, 2010
Wrong again... & I don't need to know that you share your gay stuff with gay guys either, to much info.
#12 Sep 24, 2010
Melissa form Whitesboro now lives in Oriskany she only has one child but what a pig she is.She even made her little sister become a black lover and now she has a baby very sad.
#14 Sep 25, 2010
my friend has 8 kids with 7 dads.She no doubt will be in the running for this prize.
#15 Sep 26, 2010
There are women that truly are victims as I described and there are women that are scum too. I was giving the side of women who are not whores but have trouble finding a decent guy that isn't lying to and using them. IF the woman was lied to and led on then she IS a victim. IF the guy was physically or emotionally abusive then she IS a victim. Those are the situations I was referring to. You have to admit there are differences between men and women. Men are more likely to be able to have sex just for recreation and women naturally bond with the men they sleep with. Women overwhelmingly just want love and security and a relationship where men overwhelmingly are just thinking about having sex. Especially when they are younger. And a LOT of men will say or do anything to get in a woman's pants. Even the ones that have a woman they want to be with full time forever have a hard time not straying. It's a biological instinct and men are programmed to spread their seed far and wide. A real man controls his animal instincts and does what is right. But if a woman is tricked into thinking she has a good guy and he turns out to be a cheater or abusive, how is that her fault? How was she to know if he was hiding that side of himself or lying? Saying she shouldn't have had sex until a few years and she knew she had a quality man is unrealistic. What man is going to wait THAT long??? And yes, it takes that long to really know someone and what they are capable of and how they will be after the initial infatuation wears off. If an unplanned pregnancy happens, it is both parent's responsibility, equally. Men have the final say as much as the women do. If women can say no to spreading their legs, men can stop themselves from putting it in. It is a 50/50 choice and the parents should take responsibility 50/50. To answer your questions I suppose there might be some women that are out there to live off of the child support and system and have as many children as possible. I think that is rare though. If you understood what women go through to be pregnant and give birth, it is hardly something someone would plan to put themselves through on purpose knowing they were going to have to go through it alone. Not to mention afterwords with a baby waking up all through the night, the diapers, crying, etc. I also don't think 17% of someone's income (unless they earn more than a hundred grand per year) when you realize that they have another mouth to feed and kid to clothe, etc. is so much money that a woman would think it was an easy way to make a living. Being on welfare is not a comfortable way to live, unless you are used to abject poverty and living in corn hill. And if you are on welfare they keep the child support and you get a 50 dollar pass through each month and that is all. As for the women working, if they are working and taking care of the kids nearly full time and doing all the work of raising them, their money goes to the kids too, and men should understand that! The age old question: why is a woman a whore but a man isn't?

Excuse me christina isn't a scum and only has 2 kids yeah different fathers but that's not bad. Tons of women have 2 kids with different fathers.!
#18 Sep 26, 2010
I like taking my 3 daughters to the dentist.. they will ask same last name.. im like yep its rare but they all have the same father, and we are still together.. girls who jump from man to man are gross pigs.. i had years of infertility and these bitches pop em like crazy.. your poor children.. my heart breaks for kids that dont have a good home life..dont you want better for your kids? hell no cause they are all selfish bitches..
#19 Sep 26, 2010
Hmmm... you are pretty judgmental and assuming that the women are jumping from man to man. Congrats on finding a great guy that is also willing to stick it out and probably doesn't cheat. Just because a woman has kids from more than one relationship doesn't mean that they have a bad home life or they are bad mothers! I bet when your kids grow up what you say and how you have laughed at others will come back to haunt you. What if one of your kids has a bad relationship and has a child? Will you tell them to stay together anyway? What if their husband or wife walks out on them and leaves the kids? Will you blame them and call them selfish bitches if they find someone new and have a kid with that person down the line? What about if your significant other was cheating with multiple people? Would you look the other way and stay with them just so you could hold your head high in public?
#20 Sep 26, 2010
think what you want...im talking about the slutty girls.. not the ones who are looking for good men to find out they are not.. jeesh.. and i would never expect anyone to stay in a bad relationship. i grew up in an abusive household no one deserves that.. i am talking about mothers who choose their happiness over their kids..

|For the street sweeping vehicle in GTA San Andreas, see Sweeper. For street sweepers seen on the streets in GTA IV, see Liberty Sanitation Department.
- "I need you to get some bitches taken out, moved on, whatever. Cause, yo I promised Mr. McReary I was gonna get this place cleaned up and I will."
- ― Manny Escuela
Street Sweeper is a mission for Manny Escuela in Grand Theft Auto IV. The mission introduces drive-by shooting to the player.
During the cutscene, Manny will be seem recording one of his videos with the police officer Francis McReary. Manny promises Francis that he will clean up the streets of South Bohan, so he sends Niko to hit some thugs in a garage in Windmill Street.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Go to Windmill Street.
- Clean out the gang members.
- They are trying to escape in a car, don't let them get away.
Head over to the nearby car repair shop on Windmill Street. Stay in your vehicle, because some of the gang members will try to escape in a car. Chase the car and ignore the gang members in the garage for now. Shoot the driver quickly, put it in flames as fast as you can because if the car gets out of range of the car shop, the mission will fail.
Once the gang members in the car are dead, head back to the garage and finish the gang members inside. The LCPD will probably be on you by now, so be careful when you head back to the garage; the cops and gang members in the garage will both be shooting at you. But, if you're lucky, the gang members shooting at you will attract the cops' attention and the police will start firing at them. Whatever happens, when everyone is dead, the mission is passed.
To finish the mission quickly, it is essential to avoid the car chase. There are several ways to go about this;
- If the player has a hand grenade, he can kill most, if not all, of the targets almost instantly by simply throwing it near the car.
- If the player has a Micro-SMG, he can perform a drive-by on the driver of the Primo through the windshield.
- Even on foot, the player still can get close to the front of the gang's vehicle and shoot the driver to dead. Alternatively he can destroy the vehicle by shotgun, but rather shoot the driver be more efficiency.
- Another option is simply blocking the escaping car's way with a vehicle (this is much less dangerous if you are in possession of a vehicle like the Fire Truck or Trashmaster, which will protect you from gunfire).
- Another way is to take cover behind a railway pillar by the corner of the street, which gives the player a good vantage point to manually aim for the driver with any weapon.
In case if the gang's vehicle drives away and you can't get any vehicle to chase it with, you can still can chase it on foot, by getting to the front way of their car by shortcut. Shooting the back of the vehicle with stop it after about 2-5 rounds and the gangs will leave the car for counter-attack. Alternatively the tires could be shot to slow down the vehicle or the driver(s) themselves can be shot through the window.
Video Walkthrough
Niko will call Manny Escuela, asking for his money, in which Manny will comply.
Mallorie Bardas will call Niko, saying that Elizabeta Torres has work for him (Luck of the Irish).
- If the player approaches the gang members in a car, but you don't have any weapons, he will receive a free pistol with 20 bullets.
- This is the first appearance of Francis McReary.
- The garage used in this mission has been revamped to be a Pay'n'Spray in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, circa 2009.
- This is one of the quickest and possibly one of the easiest missions of the game.
- If the player calls the police, then the game will say that they are unavailable at the moment.

The AC does not work in my chrysler town country car. We checked the motor, the fuse, and everything is okay. We also checked the relay and the wires for the AC. The cable for the fuse box in our car doesn't pass to the motor though. We also checked connecting it to the motor directly but it doen't work for a long period of time. What else can we look into or do about our AC problem in the car?

"Alabama, can I see you and shake your hand?
Make friends down in Alabama ... "
--Neil Young
The North All-Stars tallied 11 hits and jumped out to a seven-run lead at the halfway point, cruising to a 7-0 victory over the South All-Stars before 7,127 in attendance.
"For one day, we're on the same side. Going into the game, our goal was to get these guys to have some fun and play relaxed and just go through what they do," said West Tennessee manager Phil Plantier, who guided the North Division All-Stars.
"As a coaching staff, we tried to make sure everybody gets in the ballgame and that they all have an opportunity to showcase themselves. I'm real proud of the guys. They did a good job and they seemed like they had a good time."
Chattanooga's Josh Bell certainly had a good time.
The Los Angeles Dodgers' prospect and Lookouts third baseman went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run. He was named the game's Most Valuable Player.
Bell put a punctuation mark on his performance when he sent a 3-2 pitch from Montgomery pitcher Jeremy Hellickson over the right field wall, highlighting a three-run third inning that gave the North Division a 4-0 lead.
"[Bell] had a good ballgame," said Plantier. "It was a good choice."
Bell, who entered the year ranked the No. 8 prospect in the Dodgers' system by Baseball America and is batting .278 with eight home runs and 39 RBI, said the home run almost didn't happen.
"I got a fastball in and I was upset at the umpire because the pitch before [on 3-1], I thought it was a ball. I have to thank him," Bell said.
The North All-Stars capped their scoring in the fifth inning with three runs. West Tennessee's Marshall Hubbard, Huntsville's Shane Justis and Tennessee's Jim Adduci all had run-scoring hits to give the North a 7-0 lead.
Of particular interest to the Cubs, right-hander Casey Coleman pitched the second inning and needed 12 pitches to dispatch the South All-Stars.
He struck out the first two batters he faced, using a sharp curveball to retire Birmingham's Stefan Gartrell before punching out Mobile's Cyle Hankerd.
Coleman allowed only a bloop single in a scoreless inning and topped out at 96 mph, at least according to the stadium's radar gun. Coleman is normally 91-93 mph.
"I knew I had only one inning and went out and let it loose," said Coleman, who leads the Southern League with nine wins and Smokies starters with a 2.93 ERA. "When you're starting, you know you've got to pitch and brace yourself a little bit, but tonight only going one inning, I just let it loose and hoped to throw strikes and get outs."
Jay Jackson came on in the fourth inning and threw just eight pitches, topping out at 98 mph on the park's radar gun. The right-hander worked a perfect inning, striking out Hankerd on three pitches and finishing him off with a swinging strike on a slider.
Jackson was named the winning pitcher as the South Division All-Stars were maimed throughout the night, recording just four hits.
"I got behind Gartrell, but I'm just out here for one inning and trying to make the best pitches I can, and I was just trying to do that," Jackson said.
"The first hitter was [Mobile's Sean] Coughlin and I threw him a two-seamer away and got strike one. Then I threw him a changeup away that I don't think he hit too hard; he kind of put it in a decent spot and Bell made a good play."
Mississippi's Scott Diamond was awarded the loss, allowing the game's first run in the second inning courtesy of an RBI single by Huntsville's Jonathan Lucroy.
Smokies first baseman Blake Lalli started the game at first base and was 0-for-4 with an RBI sacrifice fly as part of the three-run third inning. Second baseman Tony Thomas came into the game and flied out to shallow center in his only at-bat.
Right-hander Brian Schlitter pitched two-thirds of an inning in relief, giving way to West Tennessee's Anthony Varvaro with one out to go in the ninth.

Hello , Im new from Nc looking to get myself a new pistol soon . looking at the M&P 40C , glock 27 , kahr cw40.
Welcome aboard. Hard to go wrong with an M&P or a Glock. I have never had a Kahr, but a lot of folks like them.
Welcome to the Forum :wave: I am from Kansas.
Welcome to DefensiveCarry.com from Olympia, WA; in the Great Pacific Northwest!
Welcome from Jacksonville!! And... my vote is for a Glock :-)
Greetings and welcome from the Space Coast of Central Florida.

Texas welcomes you!
Welcome from Virginia.
Michigan votes for the M&P and Welcomes you. Well, not the whole Michigan! :danceban:
Welcome from the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I like your choice of sidearms, all will serve you well if you learn them well, maintain them well, and train, train, train with them. The GLOCK is my favorite of the three you named, but that's just an experienced opinion. Still own a 22, which is the largest of that family, and carried it and the 27 for many years working the southwest border. Again, welcome. Be safe.
Welcome from Fort Worth, Texas.
Welcome from Wisconsin! I had a Glock 23 - loved it. Gave it to my son before WI had a CC law. Now I'm waiting for a M&P40C. All I've researched & heard about it made me go that route. Besides it was the only one between M&P & Glock where I got a good deal on. Meanwhile I'm carrying a S&W Sigma 40VE, a Glock 23 clone. I know absolutely nothing about Kahr.
Welcome from Delaware!

Compare Galaxy Note Deals
The Samsung Galaxy Note is something of a one of a kind on the mobile market at the moment, because it attempts to combine the best of big-screen tablet functionality with the ability to make mobile calls and send texts.
In the first two months during which the Galaxy Note was on sale, it shipped one million units worldwide, which is a real success given that it falls into an unusual category from the point of view of its physical size.
Taking up most of the front of the Galaxy Note is a 5.3-inch Super AMOLED display which gives you access to the Android 2.3 operating system customised with Samsung's own TouchWiz user interface.
There are other similarly large mobiles on the market at the moment, such as the HTC Titan and Samsung's own Galaxy Nexus, but neither of these models comes with a stylus as part of the basic retail package.
Living up to its name, the Galaxy Note can be used as a scribbling pad for your ideas, so it suits those who like to make lists without having to rely on a touchscreen keypad to get the job done. The stylus also has obvious artistic implications - if you want to get creative you will find few better places to do it than on the Galaxy Note.
Of course, as with any Android smart phone the Galaxy Note can also be used to browse the internet, download apps, play games, chat with friends, use social networks and much more, so it is more functional than many larger tablets.

The Art of Stealing: A Multi Genre Workshop
Ada Books
February 3, 2014 - March 17, 2014
Mondayss 6:30 p.m.- 9 p.m.
Admission: 250
In this multi-genre, poetic, generative workshop we will look at ways of writing through other works as launching points for our own projects. We will look at various kinds of appropriative writings (including translations, adaptations, erasure works, conceptual texts, flarf poetry, and research-based poetry) as models for our own experiments with creative stealing. As we explore, we'll consider the porous boundary between original and unoriginal content, and consider some critical approaches to copying, plagiarism, and translation. Primarily, this course will provide room for poetic play in the great field of language that surrounds us. Though we'll be exploring the poetics of stealing, this is not limited to poetry.

By Liz Powell
The nest is finally empty and Im wondering whats next? Were in between our own kids and grandkidsthat happy time of life when the aches and pains are still few, the disposable cash is a little more than ever before, and time just for each other has finally reappeared in our schedules. The question looming large and on the horizon now is: Whatever shall we do with ourselves? The late night scene and raucous parties just dont hold the same appealthe been there, done that column includes community work, flying lessons, golf, photography, and on and on and on. But, true to the nature of the male species, my darling husband has yet another idea: Lets go sailing!
Sounds like fun to me. Afterall, I love the water and the idea of seeing the world from the serenity of the sea appeals to me. So, in blissful ignorance of the perils this new adventure may hold, I happily accompany my hubby on a quest for our floating vacation home.
The joy in my journey begins to be overshadowed by my frustration at being a girlie-girl incapable of mastering this pastime without the help of the man in my life. Worse still is my fear of losing this precious man overboard and being unable to rescue him. I know I can throw him a life ring, but I realize that just isnt sufficient. My husband tries to allay my fears with lessons afloat, but when things get tense and he begins giving orders in that strange language, I find myself tempted to be the one throwing him overboard without even worrying about the life ring!
Sea Sense to the rescue! They are exactly what I am looking for: an all-girl school taught for women by women. Carol and Patti and their staff will give lessons on my boat or theirs just about anywhere I want to go and learn. I am excited about the possibility and sign on for three days in Newport, RI.
With only an occasional fleeting thought of What have I gotten myself into? I excitedly packed for fair or foul weather and headed north on a rainy Sunday afternoon in June. I was part of a six-woman women crew who would live and learn aboard the 42-foot Beneteau Endless Summer. For three glorious fair sky and smooth sea days Carol and Susan put us through our sailing paces. We covered knots to navigation and many things in between, but the trips highlight was our time at the helm, developing confidence and the ability to captain the ship when we return home to our own boats.
Will it be easier and more fun now? I sure hope so, and if not, I can always join Carol and her crew on a Sea Sense special adventure tripa few days in Tahiti might be just the extra confidence builder I need! I'll keep you girls posted.

This month the Londoner revealed that Tory MP Philip Davies and crossbench peer Lord Laird have each written to BBC Trust chairman Chris Patten about the so-called "cover-up" of the Pollard Review, the £3 million BBC inquiry into the Jimmy Savile scandal from which key evidence was excluded.
Now another Tory MP, Andrew Bridgen, has tabled a parliamentary question about it. Bridgen has asked Culture Secretary Maria Miller: "What discussions she has had with the BBC Trust on reports of (a) leaked evidence from the Pollard Review and (b) exclusion of evidence from BBC executive Helen Boaden by the Pollard Review?"
This comes days after Tory MP Rob Wilson sent Patten a recording of inquiry chairman Nick Pollard apparently admitting he made a "mistake" by leaving information out of his report about what former BBC director-general Mark Thompson knew of the Savile scandal and when he knew it. Let's hope Patten finds the time to listen to it.

The state of Michigan has introduced a bill that would require all women to undergo a transvaginal ultrasound before obtaining an abortion, a move that stirs memories of last year's outcry when other GOP-led states were considering similar invasive measures. Representative Joel Johnson (R), along with 22 co-sponsors, introduced the controversial bill.
According to text of the legislation, the law would ensure the "performance of a diagnostic ultrasound examination of the fetus at least two hours before an abortion is performed" and requires the woman to sign a consent form prior to the abortion. Although the legislation does not specifically mention transvaginal ultrasounds, Johnson's legislative aide admits the bill aims to require women to undergo the intrusive procedure prior to receiving an abortion. The bill requires the use of ultrasound equipment "providing the most visibly clear image of the gross anatomical development of the fetus and the most audible fetal heartbeat." As a practical matter, that requires transvaginal ultrasounds, said Donna Crane, the policy director of NARAL Pro-Choice America.
While the ultrasound is currently optional in Michigan, the proposed legislation would make it mandatory. Michigan's House Democratic Leader Tim Greimel, said about the bill, "This is yet another example of the Republican obsession with over-regulating people's private lives." Similar measures were introduced last year in Virginia and Alabama, but Republicans scrapped the plans after ardent pushback from women's advocates and reproductive rights groups, which likened it to rape.
According to women's rights activists, one of the motives of the bill is to set up as many obstacles as possible for abortion providers. In this case, doctors would be required to purchase more and more equipment in order to comply with the law. The Republican-controlled legislature misleadingly maintains that the purpose is to provide "consumer protection" to women and "ensure fully informed consent to the abortion."
Michigan's Governor Rick Snyder, a Republican, has recently signed into law a slew of measures that generally increase restrictions on abortions, and GOP-led legislatures all over the country are trying to push similar legislation. Tell the Michigan legislature to respect the women of their state and reject this disturbing bill.
Dear Michigan legislature,
The voices of the voters were heard in 2012. Attacks on women's rights were outright rejected when the nation reelected President Obama, and you ought to honor the will of your constituents. Continuing to push for restrictions on abortion does not bode well for your party, nor does it address any of the genuine problems ailing your state and our country.
You claim that this bill provides "protection" for women, when in fact, it inflicts humiliation and shame on women regarding one of the most personal issues of their lives. The unwarranted invasion of privacy this bill would mandate represents an antiquated mindset hat the majority of Americans no longer wish to abide by. As a nation, we should be working toward realizing more freedoms for women, not toward limiting them. Please reject this bill and continue to work to prove to the women of your state that regulating their lives and bodies will not be a part of your legislative agenda.
