School Closure
Decisions regarding school cancellations are made by CCRSB's Operational Services Department and generally happen in the early morning (before 6:30 am) or mid-day. We try our best not to have mid-day cancellations, but sometimes an unexpected change in the weather makes the decision for us. In those cases, it is important that our schools have the most up-to-date contact information for parents and guardians, and that parents and guardians have alternative arrangements in place for their children, before a cancellation takes place.
Mid-day cancellations can also be complicated by busing. Many buses in CCRSB transport students to and from multiple schools, in a set order. This same order of pick-up and drop-off will still apply in the case of a mid-day cancellation. So, though schools may close at 10:00 am, for example, students may not be dropped off until an hour or more later, depending on where their school is on the regular pick-up and drop-off order.
Whether first thing in the morning, or mid-day, cancellations due to weather conditions will be announced in several ways:
• The "All Schools Open" button on the CCRSB home page (www.ccrsb.ca) changes to red. By clicking on the button, you can get closure information specific to our Family of Schools.
• A message regarding the cancellation is posted to the CCRSB home page under "News"; to the CCRSB Facebook page (www.facebook.com/ChignectoCRSB); and to our Twitter feed (@ChignectoCRSB).
• Information is sent to all local radio and television stations within the CCRSB, including CBC radio in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island and CFCY radio in Charlottetown.
CCRSB thanks all parents, guardians and students for their patience and understanding as we move through the start of the winter season. Please know that all decisions regarding cancellations are made with great care for the safety of students and staff.

Sudden Surprise Tries Two Turns in Gander
Repole Stables' Sudden Surprise will try two turns for the first time Saturday, Feb. 6 in the $100,000 Gander Stakes for New York-bred sophomores at Aqueduct Racetrack.
Repole Stables' Sudden Surprise will try two turns for the first time Saturday, Feb. 6 in the $100,000 Gander Stakes for New York-bred sophomores at Aqueduct Racetrack.
Repole Stable's Sudden Surprise, a homebred by Giant Surprise, fought off Dr. Shane to win the $150,000 Great White Way New York Stallion Stakes for 2-year-olds Dec. 27 at Aqueduct Racetrack.
Looking back to the weekend of Nov. 21-22, when no less than five sons of Giant's Causeway were represented by stakes winners in North America.
Micromanage, a grade III-winning son of Medaglia d'Oro, will stand at Rockridge Stud near Hudson, N.Y., beginning in 2016. His initial fee will be $5,000.
Sudden Surprise, a Repole Stable homebred, is the first winner for his sire Giant Surprise. Giant Surprise broke his maiden in his debut at Saratoga July 30, 2011.
Rockridge Stud in Hudson, N.Y. has announced the stud fees for its 2015 roster of six stallions. Breeders' Cup Sprint (gr. I) winner Trinniberg carries the highest fee at $7,500.
Rockridge Stud and Lere Visagie are off to a fast start. Download Now
Rockridge Stud in Hudson, N.Y., will host its stallion show on Saturday, Feb. 1, 2014, from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. (EST).
Tom Simon's Vinery New York announced that six of its stallions standing at Sugar Maple Farm near Poughquag will be moving to Lere Visagie's Rockridge Stud near Hudson beginning with the 2014 season.
Vinery New York has scheduled its annual stallion show and open house from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 26 at Sugar Maple Farm near Poughquag, N.Y.
Giant Surprise, an impressive 2-year-old Saratoga maiden winner in his first start this year, has been retired from racing and will stand at Vinery New York at Sugar Maple Farm near Poughquag in 2012.
Alex Lieblong's Duke of Mischief topped the list of horses working at Saratoga on the morning of July 31 for the $750,000 Whitney Invitational (gr. I), turning in a bullet half-mile breeze over the main track in :46.88.

On The Matter Of Justin Bieber's Virginity, Or Lack Thereof
The Justin Bieber paternity lawsuit scandal was one of those things I didn't actually care about, but I knew all the sordid details because I work at The Frisky. So I've had time to develop somewhat strong opinions on the Biebs and his allegedly roving peen. From the get-go, I felt convinced that the alleged baby mama Mariah Yeater, age 20, who dismissed the lawsuit last week, made the whole thing up. How did I come to this conclusion? First of all, she claimed her ex-boyfriend was the father of the baby just last year and call me crazy, but her former lover seems like the more plausible impregnator in this scenario. Second of all, Mariah claimed that Justin lost his virginity to her in a bathroom at L.A.'s Staples Center after a concert. Yes, he is a 17-year-old boy, a demographic generally devoid of any seduction tactics whatsoever. But even losing his V-card in a toilet stall seemed too … crass? … to be believable.
Lastly, and most importantly, Justin Bieber has always just screamed "VIRGIN!" to me — underlined, in bold, with flashing lights. There's no nicer way of saying it: the kid is just a dork. From his white-boy-from-Canada "gangsta" posturing, to his notoriously overprotective single mama and small army of handlers, to his conservative views on sexuality, it seemed a no-brainer to me this kid's purity was unsullied. Yes, he's been photographed fondling his possibly-still girlfriend Selena Gomez. But I genuinely believed Justin's P has never been inside any woman's V, ever.
Notice I said believed, past tense. Over the past few weeks, I've watched with interest how the paternity lawsuit scandal unfolded and noticed how Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, their respective teams, and all these "sources" who feed lines to the gossip columns suspiciously did not do the one thing I had expected to happen. They denied the paternity, of course, but never once did anyone say, "This can't be true, Justin couldn't have impregnated Mariah Yeater, because he is a virgin!"
Let me be clear: I don't actually care whether Justin Bieber is a virgin or not — not in a creepy way and definitely not in a judgmental way, either. I don't care whether Selena Gomez is a virgin, either. That's not anyone else's business but theirs. (They are 17- and 19-years-old, respectively, and old enough in my book to be sexually active if they want to be.) Rather, my focus here is the complete radio silence on the matter of Justin's virginity in a way that we would never, never, NEVER experience if the pop star we were talking about were a girl. When it comes to our expectations of famous teen boys and girls and their sexuality, Justin Bieber is the beneficiary of a hell of a lot of male privilege.
Take Jamie Lynn Spears, for instance. Britney's little sister got knocked up at 16 years old when she was starring on Nickelodeon's TV show, "Zoey 101." As far as I know, Jamie Lynn had never publicly claimed to be a virgin (unlike Britney). But especially because she appeared on Nick, Jamie Lynn was considered to be a "good girl." She's similar to Biebs in that Justin Bieber also has a "good" image and he is only a year older than Jamie Lynn was when she got pregnant. But where there were only a few ruffles with him, Jamie Lynn was thrust into the spotlight as the new face of teen pregnancy — before Bristol Palin , actually — and was the impetus for much handwringing over Oh Noes The Kids Is Having The Sex! Everyone had something to say about that trashy Spears family, their sexed-up daughters, and "why can't their parents keep their girls under control?"
Miley Cyrus is another young female pop star whose sexuality has been scrutinized in a way that Justin Bieber's isn't. Back in 2008, Miley was telling Barbara Walters she was saving herself for marriage, while at the same time photos were coming out of her bra strap showing and kissing other girls at sleepover parties and she was posing in nothing but a bedsheet alongside her father in Vanity Fair at age 15. Yes, the hypocrisy couldn't be ignored, but it seemed like every month there were new breathless (and at times creepy) stories about Miley's supposed sex life. Her "risqué" photos only increased in intensity over the years; she had several high-profile boyfriends; and there were even rumors that Miley and a boyfriend were planning on moving in together. Again, I personally don't care whether or not Miley is abstainent until marriage. I don't care if she takes goofy pictures of herself with her girlfriends. (I did that at her age, too!) I actually think if she has done all the things she's accused of doing, that makes her a pretty normal teenage girl! The fact that we're all intimately familiar — and, for some of us, judgmental — regarding this teen girl's sex life is problematic.
Granted, Miley Cyrus' image was all chipmunk-cheeked innocence and then took a sudden — and distressing, for parents and pop culture watchers alike — turn for the tarty in her late teens. (If you object to the use of the word "tarty," look at this picture and tell me it does not look, as Amelia put it, like "an old timey whore's suite above a saloon.") However, Justin's image is pretty innocent, too, despite all the "gangsta" posturing and flirting with women of all ages. That's why I'm perplexed by the radio silence. Wouldn't that be all the more reason that his virginity — or lack thereof — would be scrutinized? Hasn't Justin Beiber, as a celeb marketed to tween girls, been sexually neutral, unthreatening, and virginal from the get-go? It would have seemed totally logical to me — nay, I completely expected — for Bieber to play the virgin card to exonerate himself from Mariah Yeater's allegations.
Instead … silence.
I'm not suggesting we pry into Justin and Selena's sex life. Or that we pry into anyone's sex life, for that matter. I am suggesting is that we apply the same "who gives a crap?" standards to young female stars that Justin enjoys; it's not fair that girls like Miley and Jamie Lynn get whipped up in the teen girl sexual moral panic tornado while Justin hides in the basement. There's been nary a comment about whether or not he is "too young," "too slutty," or "too whatever" to be having sex. All young celebs — regardless of their gender, regardless of their age, regardless of whether they are or are not having sex — should be so privileged.

Raising Hell On Today's Vault
Trooper was a Juno Award winning Canadian act that enjoyed much success there during the late 1970's and early 1980's. Signed and produced by Randy Bachman during the hit years, they managed only one US hit, Raise A Little Hell from 1978's Thick as Thieves album. You may recall it from the summer time that year; it was always near the top of our "most requested" list. Hear it around 5:20pm, on the radio or on-line.

The Daily Energy
To hear it told in Washington, you would think everything good that has ever happened in the last two decades is threatened by the sequestering of 4 percent of federal spending on Friday. Who knew the government did so many wonderful things? While the talk in other sectors is about Head Start programs closing and airplanes falling out of the sky, energy bureaucrats are warning the Clean Energy Revolution will be stopped in its tracks. The American Association for the Advancement of Science worries that research spending will end. In fact just about everybody in Washington is using the Sequester to ride their particular hobbyhorse. Surya Gablin Gunaskara of the Washington Examiner tells us the Sequester only increases the need for the Keystone Pipeline. Perhaps the best commentary comes from CNSNews, which tells us that spending at the Department of Energy has increased 43 percent in the last decade. No wonder Washington is prospering while the rest of the country is in the doldrums.
At the ARPA-E annual gathering down at Gateway on the Potomac, attendees are ogling the work of what deputy director Cheryl Martin called "America's Modern Explorers." Yesterday was show-and-tell, with dozens of entrepreneurs showcasing their wares (above). Ideas ranged from innovative geometries for vehicle natural gas tanks to wireless electric vehicle charging schemes. Today's speakers will include Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Purdue University President Mitch Daniels, and T. Boone Pickens, who knows a lot about energy and will need no introduction. Private investment in ARPA-E sponsored companies has now reached $450 million, according to Martin, but so far here have been no home runs.
China continues to pursue energy the old-fashioned way – by buying up natural resources. Sinopec inked a $1 billion deal to buy half of Chesapeake Energy's oil and gas holdings in Oklahoma. They have signed a deal to import natural gas from Russia and are also eyeing British Columbia supplies. China's energy consumption rose 3.9 percent in 2012 but the nation's shale revolution – which is supposed to duplicate US success – still hasn't gotten off the ground.
Finally, departing Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar was in Boston promising that his successor will be accelerating the permitting of offshore wind project. Salazar made the ritualistic threats that the Sequester would end this progressive effort (see above) and also promised that the Cape Wind project – delayed almost a decade by environmental opposition, especially concentrated around Hyannis Port – will finally be completed. Meanwhile, an ambitious project to cover the ocean off Atlantic City with windmills is beginning to run into questions of just how much the whole thing will cost. Midwest Energy News proclaims that all this makes a great lesson for developing offshore wind on the Great Lakes. But what is the lesson?

State Assemblyman Greg Ball, R-Patterson, sent out the following today, calling for the resignation of Janet Napolitano, the secretary of homeland security.
Assemblyman Gregory Ball (R, C, I – Patterson) announced his new Assembly Resolution, calling on behalf of New Yorkers for the resignation of Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security:
"Second only to Jerusalem, New York City is the world's greatest terrorist target. New Yorkers have real reason to be concerned over the recent developments showing the soft underbelly of our transportation security network. It has become clear that Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security, is unfit for her responsibility to protect the safety and lives of the 300 million Americans who need real protection from global and domestic threats. The planned terrorist attack against our Nation this Christmas never should have had the opportunity to succeed. This man was not a mastermind. He took no measures to hide his true identity or his purpose. Only providence and a detonator malfunction prevented the loss of nearly 300 lives. Yet Napolitano responded to this obvious failure by applauding her system for working. She should be outraged that her department failed to prevent a terrorist attack on our Nation's soil. The President should be outraged. In this instance, for this job, we cannot afford to give another chance.
"Napolitano must go."

Best Of :: Shopping & Services
Have a few beers before heading into this place. Once you're in, you'll be privy to one of the largest selections of weird porn the world over. You can't beat the tranny collection: They have Asian T-Girl Latex Nurses AND Teenage Transsexual Nurses 2. You'd think the Internet revolution would have wiped a joint like this off the face of the Earth. But it's odd and nice to know that it didn't. "Make sure to put that David Machado is the best employee," requested a pale, pony-tailed clerk from behind the counter. Machado's mother and father are no doubt glad they freed their son David from Castro's iron grip at the tender age of seven. Had he remained on the island, he might have never had the liberties and opportunities he has here. Could someone ring that motherin' Liberty BellçMachado mostly works nights, helping customers with their queries. Most people keep to themselves, however, especially during the morning shift. The "video store," he sighs, will go the way of the "record shop." It's all about the DVD these days. And Adult Video Connection is in the process of selling off its VHS stock. So if you're hangin' on to your VCR and you love porn, now is your time to strike.
We know a seasoned vintage shopaholic who lovingly calls this place "Chez Armé." She proudly boasts about all of the amazing finds she's procured from here. It wasn't until she showed us photos of an incredible four-poster bed that seemed to be hewn from tree trunks that we began paying attention. When it comes to buying furniture, you can't do better.The store is a clean, well-lit place with the usual thrift store finds in abundance dishes, sweaters, winter jackets, and worn children's toys. To one side you'll find dining room furniture, bedroom sets, and men's clothing. A handsome ornate chest of drawers, side tables, and an armoire are a bargain at $350. Textured wall units and a dining table come for $800. A two-piece butter-yellow leather living room set is $150. There's bland furniture and random what-were-they-thinking items, like a pair of children's loft-style beds outfitted with wooden slides for that speedy (not to mention dangerous) disembarkation. Stop by early (it opens at 9:00 a.m.) if you want to find a specific furniture item that isn't on display: "We got a whole warehouse back there," says approachable clerk Clarence Williams. Every second Saturday of the month, the lot down the street hosts the Salvation Army auto auction. So quite literally you can walk in here with nothing and leave with a suite of furniture and a new car for less than a grand.
All of us have a bunch of stuff hanging around our homes that we don't want, don't need, or don't use. Why not streamline your life by getting rid of some of that junkç Freecycle, a national online trading post with a board here in Miami, is the perfect way to turn your trash into someone else's treasure. Here's how it works: You register on the Website and then offer your stuff in a posting. If someone wants it, you arrange a (safe) meeting time and place to make the exchange. Best of all, it's free.
Don't want to spend $300 on a BCBG dressç If you're lucky, you can find one at Rag Trade for $30. You can also earn a little cash on the clothes you haven't worn for four years, the ones lying wrinkled and unused in a cobwebby corner of your closet. If you would rather barter for something in the shop, that's fine too. Like any secondhand shop, Rag Trade carries a rotating stock of wares that ranges in style from vintage to contemporary. There's also a section devoted to new clothes by local designers and by London-based Religion (not to be confused with the brand of jeans). Feel good about shopping here: Rag Trade is pro-conservation, and even the price tags are recycled.
Maybe South Florida doesn't seem like the best place to pick up knitting as a hobby after all, summer is upon us. But there are always babies to crochet blankets for, relatives up north who need hats and scarves, and the three cold days next winter. Elegant Stitches carries more than 700 different yarns and offers knitting and crochet classes for $45. The shop also has patterns, books, kits, and needles. For the truly dedicated, the store organizes a November knitting cruise on Royal Caribbean.
Light catches your eye from all directions in the Gem and Bead Gallery. Everywhere you look, there are glistening gemstones of all varieties amethyst, rose quartz, and glass beads that look almost exactly like them. Coral branches, turquoise chunks, and amber circles; jade beads and freshwater pearls. You can buy anything, from a $1000 sapphire to adorn that perfect solitaire, to $1 glass beads for a hippie love necklace. The Gem and Bead Gallery is a direct importer of gemstone beads, colored crystals, horn beads, Swarovski crystals, and pearls. The store attracts customers who are practiced jewelers, as well as first-time bead stringers. To that end, they offer hands-on Monday and Saturday classes that range from $30 to $35. From beading to pearl knotting, you can learn how to do it and then successfully make it here. Few things are cooler than being able to chirp, "Thanks, I made them myself," when you're inevitably complimented on your amazing new earrings.

Thanks for adding this for me. I was not really sure how to add pages on this site, and I have not figure out how to turn it in to a .patch and have not had any time to figure it out. also thanks for figuring out how to add a specific "< div >" height. I was trying to figure it out but just threw it together. --Elpollodiablo1 19:59, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Within this function find
"height": 200,
And replace it with
"height": 200,
Shouldn't the previous code actually read something different? Like 250 or 300? Not replace with the same information. Am I missing something? For instance,
Within this function find
"height": 200,
And replace it with
"height": 300,
You are correct. Good ol cut and past error. The valu should be 275. I have updated the instructions. Thankyou for the find.

Why Study Mathematics?
If you have an interest in pure math, statistics, algorithms, or the applications of mathematics to a variety of fields, then the mathematics major at Penn State Behrend may be the right choice for you. The demand for mathematicians is projected to be strong in the coming years. A shortage of science teachers, a growing need for actuarial specialists, and demand for greater computer network efficiency and for fast, accurate decision-making in international markets suggest good careers for those in mathematics.
Why earn your mathematics degree at Penn State Behrend?
- Small class sizes foster close student-professor relationships and provide many opportunities for students to participate in faculty supervised research or internships. Student-faculty collaboration has generated research projects in mathematical biology, game theory, abstract algebra, random variables, math education, pattern formation, application of statistics, graph theory, stock market analysis, and the history of math. Research helps students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and students often comment on how much better they understand what has been taught in the classroom now that they are actually applying their knowledge to answer questions. Students with research experience have a very competitive edge upon graduation whether the student is interested in applying for jobs or graduate or professional schools.
- Faculty typically have doctorates or significant experience in the mathematics field. Among the Penn State Behrend mathematics faculty members are authors of some of America's best-selling college-level math textbooks.
- Cooperative education and internship opportunities are available for academic credit.

A lot can happen in two weeks. Trust me as I would know. Now married and after having spent the last two weeks traveling Europe, I'm back and ready to hit the ground running.
But if you took some time off yourself to enjoy the summer sun or go on vacation, here are some of the notable items to hit OU in the last two weeks:
OU makes Newsome cut
This actually happened on my wedding day, June 21. The four-star wide receiver released his top five and not surprisingly the Sooners made the cut for Ryan Newsome.
A lot of people have been discounting OU in the race for Newsome, but he has been somebody who has been so specific about why he likes the Sooners that it has made absolutely no sense at all to write out OU for his signature.
It won't be easy and there's a legitimate case to be made for the other four schools in his list, but the Sooners should absolutely get an official visit from Newsome and try to state their case.
Ofodile goes west
Not everything was positive news for the Sooners on the trail. At one time it looked like it was a matter of time before OU would nab Columbia (Mo.) Rock Bridge wide receiver Alex Ofodile. However, as more time passed, it became clear he hadn't found his answer.
Missouri and Notre Dame were certainly in the conversation, but it turned out Ofodile would go west and choose Oregon.
It's not a huge loss for OU, but it's another sign that maybe OU isn't looking for a taller receiver for this class. The Sooners didn't make an impression with DaMarkus Lodge and haven't really gone all out for Christian Kirk and never made a concerted effort with Dahu Green so it looks like it's all about the slot receivers for this class.
Stadium renovations get approved
A lot of the big-time news from the last two weeks didn't involve the recruiting trail. An example of that would be the stadium renovations getting approved by the Board of Regents.
At $370 million, this is nothing to sneeze at and is a huge move by the university to try to stay more than just relevant in the ever-going arms race between the top schools and the top facilities in the country.
A good portion of the renovations are to enhance the experience for fans, but there are some huge things that need to be pointed out for the team and recruiting.
The weight room facilities are going to be increased dramatically as the center will measure 30,852 square feet. Most recruits said they enjoy OU's weight room but have been surprised at how "old" looking it has appeared. That won't be the case anymore.
The meeting rooms were a point of emphasis in the project, too, with the addition of 11 football position meeting rooms. To go along with that will be state-of-the-art medical training, equipment and football operations facilities will be added.
Alternate uniforms confirmed
When you're talking about how to impress today's recruits, facilities and uniforms are always in the discussion. The renovations being approved dealt with facilities, and a landmark decision by the university last week did the same with uniforms.
If there's one area where OU has been reticent to make any major changes, it has been in the uniform department. Tradition has always won out against trying to be flashy and trendy.
But now OU is gladly tinkering with things, even if there hasn't been a scheduled time for when the new uniforms will be unveiled in a game.
"I think recruits are always excited about uniforms, helmets and any of the looks that you might put on the field," Bob Stoops said. "The additional uniforms won't be something we do constantly, but it will be a nice change-up and will be positive in recruiting, with our players and with our fans."
Current and former OU players were involved in the process that already has drawn a lot of early praise from recruiting targets.
James announcing at The Opening
The Opening is this week and features plenty of OU targets. And one of them is ready to decide at the event itself.
Herriman (Utah) High four-star offensive tackle Andre James said Saturday he will announce this week at the event.
The Sooners are one of his six finalists, and he had already said he plans to trip to Norman for OU's game against Tennessee. No idea if that will still be the case following whatever he decides this week in Oregon.
Sooners land DGB
More than five years in the making, but OU is finally the home of wide receiver Dorial Green-Beckham. After being dismissed from Missouri, it appeared Eastern Illinois was going to be his destination.
That all changed last Thursday when Green-Beckham returned to Norman, and it was confirmed he would be the newest addition to the Sooners.
Green-Beckham was a major OU recruiting target when he was at Springfield (Mo.) Hillcrest and was one of the most polarizing recruits with OU fans to come along in a long time.
Heupel shakes things up
It's well known how cautious Josh Heupel is regarding making offers to quarterback so to make two in one day was alarming.
To make two to prospects for the Class of 2016 was astounding, but that's exactly what Heupel did in offering Shane Buechele and Shea Patterson.
Buechele's older brother, Garrett, played baseball at OU, while Patterson is an Arizona commit. The Sooners have developed a great rapport with the Buechele family, while Patterson has admitted he knows next to nothing about Norman.
No idea if the early offers are going to pay off, but it was a bold move by Heupel, who perhaps realized with this last class that he can no longer wait as long as he would like.
Hite arrives at Sooners Illustrated
And the last news has nothing to do with the university itself but with the site. Justin Hite has officially arrived to SoonersIllustrated.com to help bolster the site with its OU coverage.
Hite comes to the site after spending time in North Carolina and will give a fresh perspective to the landscape in Norman.
Hite officially joined the site last week.

Quote:I think a perfect example of how it is possible to teach oneself using a variety of texts is found in looking at western (weapons based) martial arts. In the last 20 years or so these have seen a revival, going from being thought essentially non-existant to being very complete systems of armed combat. These people taught themselves mostly by looking at centuries old manuscripts and 'figuring it out' over years. There are a lot of very high quality swordsmen (and axemen/spearmen, whatever) that have learned in this manner, easily as good as their more formally trained japanese/chinese style counterparts. The historical fencing guys for example are extremely good, then there's various organisations like dagohir groups, things like ARMA and the SCA. These groups all include a lot of people who have a lot of skill, yet many of these people were either self taught or taught by someone who was self taught. Its a matter of time and effort, people dedicated their lives to reviving WMA and as far as I can see they've been quite sucessful. Also note, this is an outsiders observations... I like to collect swords and do a little backyard cutting, which is mostly how I got my exposure to WMA, but I'm no swordsman and no member of any WMA group.

text: George. Here is a story about the original Louisiana Tiger. Regards, Jack >From The Opinionator NY Times January 17, 2012, 9:30 pm Sherman's Southern Sympathies By THOM BASSETT Disunion follows the Civil War as it unfolded. Tags: Louisiana, slaves, The Civil War, William T. Sherman The Baton Rouge dinner party in early 1860 had been enjoyable, but as it went on William Tecumseh Sherman couldn't help but hear his name mentioned repeatedly down at the table's far end. He suspected it had something to do with his position as superintendent of the newly formed Louisiana State Seminary of Learning and Military Academy (today's Louisiana State University). He had held the post for a few months and was well regarded by those who knew him personally, but many who didn't were concerned that the state's only college was run by a Northerner whose congressman brother was seen across the South as an abolitionist. The party's host, Gov. Thomas O. Moore, finally invited Sherman to join the discussion. "Won't you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?" Moore asked. "You are under my roof," he added, "and, whatever you say, you have my protection." His guest wouldn't need it. Sherman is remembered today mainly as the Union general who led marches through Georgia and the Carolinas that crippled the Confederacy's war-making capacity and demoralized its people. But that evening, surrounded by some of Louisiana's leading citizens, Sherman would prove how Southern his views on slavery were. William T. Sherman"The people of Louisiana were hardly responsible for slavery, as they had inherited it," Sherman assured his audience. Further, while the well-being of field slaves might depend on "the temper and dispositions of their masters and overseers," Sherman thought slaves who worked in family homes were "probably better treated than any slaves on earth." When he explained that he favored keeping slave families intact and allowing slaves to read and write in order to increase their value as property, a fellow guest pounded the table in excited support of Sherman's remarks. A lively but congenial debate ensued that left Sherman feeling relieved, "because at the time all men in Louisiana were dreadfully excited on questions affecting their slaves." Sherman's comments shouldn't surprise us, nor the fact that they were so well received. Though born in Ohio, Sherman had spent much of his life among Southerners. In 1836 he entered West Point, where the emphasis on hierarchy and obedience would prepare Sherman well to move later among aristocratic Southerners. Upon graduation in 1840, Sherman spent the next six years at postings across the Deep South, in Florida, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. It was especially while in Charleston that Sherman got to know the South's aristocracy, attending parties and going on deer hunts along the Cooper River. Sherman resigned from the Army after a posting in California and embarked on what turned out to be a spectacularly unsuccessful business career. With the help of old Army friends, he was hired in the summer of 1859 to head the nascent Louisiana military academy. At Governor Moore's dinner party, in fact, Sherman had if anything actually understated his views. For one thing, Sherman was a white supremacist. "All the congresses on earth can't make the negro anything else than what he is; he must be subject to the white man," Sherman wrote his wife in 1860. "Two such races cannot live in harmony save as master and slave." In a letter to his antislavery brother-in-law about plans to bring his family to Louisiana, Sherman crassly joked about becoming a slave master himself. Making light of the problems he anticipated in keeping white servants, he wrote that his wife Ellen "will have to wait on herself or buy a nigger. What will you think of that - our buying niggers?" Blinded by his implacable racism, Sherman could see no worthwhile moral or legal debate to be had over slavery. History had forced this institution on the South, Sherman thought, and its continued prosperity depended on embracing it. "Theoretical notions of humanity and religion," he flatly declared, "cannot shake the commercial fact that their labor is of great value and cannot be dispensed with." Further, Sherman believed that slavery benefited both races. In 1854 he assured his brother that blacks thrived in the Southern heat and later told David F. Boyd, one of his professors at the Louisiana military academy and eventual friend, that he considered slavery in the South "the mildest and best regulated system of slavery in the world, now or heretofore." Still, slavery did trouble Sherman in one way: He grew increasingly worried that the political fight over it would threaten the stability of the Union. However, while he occasionally singled out Southerners for overreacting to antislavery sentiment - once writing that they "pretend to think that the northern people have nothing to do but steal niggers and preach sedition" - Sherman overall displayed a clear sympathy for their side in the growing schism. He was emphatic in an 1859 letter to his wife that the South should make its own decisions regarding slavery and then "receive its reward or doom." Sherman thus anticipated Jefferson Davis' famous plea of two years later that the South simply be left alone. Despite Sherman's strong affinities for the white aristocratic South, there were parts of Southern life that he seemed to dislike, and even despise. He enjoyed, for example, socializing in the 1840s with the better people of Charleston, but he at least once called their scions "worthless sons of broken down, proud Carolina families." After the war, as the South struggled to rise above the devastation and impoverishment it had suffered, Sherman admonished Boyd to leave Louisiana for a teaching position in the North. "The commonest of the common schools of Iowa outrank in public estimation your university," Sherman unkindly informed his friend, somehow overlooking that he was referring to the same college he himself had helped found and was otherwise often proud of. It's not clear, though, how seriously to take these attacks: Sherman's relationship with the South, like so many other areas of his life, was marked by a penchant for overheated rhetoric and a shifting array of firmly held opinions that can be hard to reconcile. On the other hand, Sherman was always consistent when it came to the most fundamental disagreement between himself and his Southern friends and colleagues. He resigned his superintendency in January 1861 when it was clear Louisiana would follow the cotton states out of the Union. Sherman would help Southern whites "protect themselves against negroes and abolitionists," but he refused to accept disunion under any circumstances. Sherman's decision was painful for all concerned. "You cannot regret more than I do the necessity which deprives us of your services," Governor Moore wrote Sherman. For his own part, Sherman told Moore he left with "the kindest feelings toward all." At a final ceremony at the academy, Sherman bid farewell to each of his cadets individually; he then turned to the assembled faculty, but at first was unable to speak. After a moment, he placed a hand over his heart and choked out, "You are all here." Even so, Sherman would also hold rage in his heart at what he considered Confederate treason, and he came to embrace a war strategy to make the South pay for its disloyalty. "My aim," according to his memoirs, "was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us." This Sherman, the scourge of the South, is well-established in Civil War history. Much less well known, but equally essential to a proper understanding of this man, is the Sherman who wrote his oldest daughter of his sadness at fighting "some of the very families in whose houses I used to spend some happy days" and of his relief whenever battle against them could be avoided. The Sherman who received under flag of truce in 1864 a letter of thanks from several captured Louisiana students and professors for whom he'd secured release and protection. The Sherman who, a decade later in his memoirs, still recalled by name a former cadet killed in the terrible carnage at Shiloh. Sherman's relationship with the South makes him one of the most paradoxical and polarizing figures of the Civil War. He understood, and to a great extent embraced, the beliefs and values that led the South to secede. Yet of all Union generals he was the most viscerally opposed to the rebellion, causing him, as the war went on, to become the Confederacy's sympathetic, vengeful enemy. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "George Connell" <georgeconnell at mac.com> > To: "GDG" <gettysburg at arthes.com> > Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 3:25 PM > Subject: Re: GDG- BG Harry Hayes - Louisiana Tigers > > > Esteemed GDG Member Contributes: > Jack, > > I think that's another Looziana CW military entity.

Detailed Description:
Hot flashes and/or night sweats are the most common and troubling symptoms associated with menopause. It is estimated that 64% to 87% of women report experiencing hot flashes for an average of about 4 years. For many women, these symptoms are frequent and severe enough to become debilitating and interfere with daily activities. They often occur at night, disturbing sleep and leading to daytime irritability, fatigue and depressed mood. About 30-40% of menopausal women seek medical help for hot flashes. Relief from hot flashes has been shown to be the primary reason that women initiate hormone therapy (HT).
HT is currently the gold standard for treatment of vasomotor symptoms. A Cochrane Database systematic review showed a 75% reduction in hot flash frequency with hormone therapy compared to placebo.1 However, recent findings from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) trial indicate that benefits of HT are outweighed by risks, such as coronary heart disease, stroke, pulmonary embolism, breast cancer, and probable dementia. The wide publicity of the WHI results has heightened women's concerns about taking HT and many women have sought alternative treatments for hot flashes. These alternatives include other pharmaceutical agents, herbal or dietary remedies, and behavioral therapies. Unfortunately, many of these agents have a high incidence of side effects or have not been shown to be effective. A recent NIH conference has called for more research on alternative treatments for hot flashes.
Behavioral interventions involving relaxation and slow deep, abdominal breathing have been found to be useful for reducing mild- to moderate-intensity hot flashes. Although the physiological mechanisms for the effectiveness of these interventions are not completely understood, there is some suggestion that they may help reduce sympathetic activity which is related to the narrowing of the thermoneutral zone. It is currently thought that hot flashes are linked to a disruption in thermoregulation and that elevated levels of brain norepinephrine may be the primary mechanism for altered thermoregulation. Breathing techniques form the most integral core of any yoga practice which involves the combination of physical postures (asanas), breathing (pranayama), and deep relaxation (savasana). Despite suggestions that yoga may be beneficial for the relief of hot flashes, these potential benefits have not been well-studied.
To date, treatment efficacy for hot flashes has been limited to self-reported, subjective symptoms. While subjective hot flashes are important from a woman's perspective in her decision-making with respect to treatment, research has shown that they can be influenced by mood and reporting biases. Objective measures are not subject to these biases and have the advantage of providing insight as to whether an intervention has a physiological effect. However, until recently, reliable objective measures that could be used in an ambulatory setting were not available. NCCAM has recently funded the development of new technologies to monitor objective hot flashes in an ambulatory setting, as measured by skin conductance. This technology greatly enhances our ability to fully evaluate the impact of treatment on both subjective and objective hot flashes.
The primary goal of this R21 pilot grant is to obtain preliminary data on the efficacy of Integral Yoga for reducing self-reported menopausal hot flashes. Secondary aims are to determine the impact of yoga on objective hot flashes and other outcomes and study feasibility. Our primary hypothesis will be a greater reduction in subjective hot flash frequency and severity in the yoga group than in two control groups. Secondary outcomes will include a greater reduction in objective hot flash frequency; a greater decrease in hot flash interference; and greater improvement in sleep, other symptoms, mood, perceived stress, and overall quality of life in the yoga group.

The 'Gangnam Style' hitmaker is next going to invade New York with his '#ClassyCheesyAttitude' on 'Today' show.
PSY continued his media tour in the States following the massive success of his "Gangnam Style" video that got 75 million views. When visiting TMZ recently, the Korean pop sensation busted his new dance moves when asked about his next offering that could be the next big hit.
PSY has already done interview with Ryan Seacrest and taught Britney Spears how to dance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show". "I learned how to go Gangnam style from the master today!" Brit tweeted. His motto was to "dress classy and dance cheesy," and so they did it.
His next stop is "TODAY" show this coming Friday, September 14. He hyped up the upcoming gig on Twitter, "All the Kpop fanz in NY ,plz come out and see me performing #gangnamstyle on friday morning @todayshow."

Hill conceded after the game that a faltering lineout had not helped the visitors and felt that a run of testing away games against Sale Sharks, Harlequins and now Bath Rugby had caught up with his men.
"It felt like it was one game too far for us in this spell," he said. "We have put a huge effort in the last few games and been away from four of the last six games.
"We have had to put a lot of effort in each week. We started brightly but we ran out of steam and the intensity wasn't at the normal level. Consequently our defence was under huge pressure.
"The mind was willing but I could see this was going to be a dangerous one. We looked on current form and Bath would have been third in the league over the last five matches so it was always going to be tricky.
"The replacements gave us more energy and it was good to score the second try; that was a little bit of consolation. They had a go and gave us life, but today defence and lineout was very disappointing.
"Our lineout could not function and we got into some positions and lost the lineout, it just let Bath off the hook. You have got to take your chances.
"We made some errors in the first half that cost us too. A free kick from a scrum in our 22, they get the ball and score from it. The set piece, unusually, didn't function and we didn't get the edge in the scrum and the lineout stats were not good.
"We allowed Bath some clean possession of their lineout and we know they have got some good moves, it was difficult for our backs to defend with two distributors facing them with (Olly) Barkley in at centre.
"I was pleased with Kai when he came on, he added energy," added Hill. "Most of the replacements did that, the starting 15 were a little bit tired and those that came on were sharper."

IWAKI, FUKUSHIMA PREF. – The assemblies of the two towns that cohost the wrecked Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant on Thursday approved the central government's request to hold meetings to explain its plan to build storage facilities there for soil tainted by the March 2011 nuclear disaster.
Now that the Okuma and Futaba municipal assemblies have agreed to permit the meetings, the central government could start holding briefing sessions to persuade residents to accept the storage plan as soon as this month.
The government hopes to win backing for the storage project by explaining the details of the facilities and its measures for promoting local community development.
The prefecture is home to Tokyo Electric Power Co.'s aging Fukushima No. 1 plant, where the 9.0-magnitude earthquake and subsequent tsunami of March 11, 2011, triggered three core meltdowns that heavily damaged the poorly protected facility.
After the assembly meeting, Okuma Mayor Toshitsuna Watanabe said the central government needs to show concrete plans because residents' opinions are mixed.
Futaba Mayor Shiro Izawa said his town will make a decision on whether to allow the facilities after watching how the government responds to residents' opinions.
In March, Fukushima Prefecture and the two towns refused to permit the briefing sessions because the central government had given insufficient explanations about its compensation and regional development plans.
After the central government announced a plan Friday to create a subsidy program to promote local development, the prefectural and municipal governments approved the meetings on the condition that the town assemblies also give their nods.
The central government intends to reach a decision soon on the size of the subsidy program and speed up discussions on establishing a new law for final disposal of the radiation-tainted soil outside the prefecture within 30 years in line with requests from residents.

(4) Nature Deficit Disorder: New Efforts to Connect Kids with the Outdoors
(1) Take Action: Stop Tyson's Dirty Water Bail-Out Bill!
Large livestock operations could soon be off the hook for dumping waste containing high levels of toxic metals, like arsenic and copper into our drinking water. A new amendment expected to be added to the Farm Bill by Sen. Blanche Lincoln would exempt these livestock operations from the federal polluter-pays law, allowing corporations like Tyson's, which has already polluted the drinking water of 22 communities in Oklahoma, to pass clean up costs to the ratepayers.
Stop the Tyson's Dirty Water Bail-Out Bill!
(2) Take Action Spread Awareness about Free Trade!
This summer, host or attend a film screening of Maquilapolis: City of Factories and witness the amazing story of female factory workers along the U.S. - Mexico border. After facing hardships from daily contact with toxic chemicals to long hours without restroom breaks, the women featured in Maquilapolis bravely take a stand for better treatment and a cleaner environment. Learn about their post-NAFTA struggles and victories while spreading awareness about free, and all too often unfair, trade.
Host or attend a screening of this important film! No need to be a trade expert, we can help you plan your party or find one near you.
(3) Katrina: Rebuilding Green
Two years after Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast, communities are slowly coming back to life. And thanks to the hard work and determination of local residents with support from Sierra Club activists, areas like the Lower Ninth Ward are not simply being re-built, but being built better and greener. Restored local wetlands, green housing, solar roofs, and recycling programs are helping communities recover and prepare for future storms.
Learn more about the rebuilding efforts.
(4) Nature Deficit Disorder: New Efforts to Connect Kids with the Outdoors
Four thousand additional New Mexico children will be able to experience the outdoors free of charge, thanks to new investments in outdoor education programs announced last week by the Sierra Club. The latest investment is part of a nationwide effort to combat nature-deficit disorder by ensuring that every child is given an opportunity to experience and enjoy the outdoors. So far this year the Sierra Club has helped over 13,000 children reap the benefits of getting outside, improving their physical and mental health and raising their academic achievement.
Learn more about the importance of getting kids outside.

Events of Solitude
The Events of Solitude are perhaps the greatest media stunt in the life of Ghyll, certainly in recent history. They have thousands of devout believers proclaiming that Ghyll ended on the day prophesied, and everything thereafter is in fact just a mass hallucination. Personally, this scholar believes that everything before them was just an illusion, so he doesn't really see the difference.
The tale of the Events of Solitude begins, as with many stories, with the poems of Arariax. Or if you'd rather, they begin with the thoughts of an idiot, another way a lot of stories begin. Either way, the tale is the same and starts around -171 EC. A scholar by the name of Rattallan, known far and wide for his complete and total lack of sense, declared that he had combined all of the works of the great poet into one massive manuscript which foretold the end of the world on the 12th of Jole, -100 EC (a date now synonymous with the Day of Champions). On that day, everything would go silent for three nights, after which the world would stop, orthogonalities would separate, dead gods would awake and generally be annoyed at those living upon them, and random mayhem would occur. Now, crackpots come out every once in a while declaring the end of the world, so the populace ignored him. His prediction quickly forgotten, the world moved on. Rattallan himself also moved on, declaring in two months that he had definite proof that Aelfants were going to take over the world in 10 EC. His earlier prediction forgotten, the world again moved on.
Re-emerging into Public Consciousness
The prophecy of the foolish scholar lay forgotten until -101 EC. A poor graduate student at Bute University, forced to catalog the manuscripts his professor had collected in his travels, came across the Prediction of Rattallan, combined with the work done to prove it. The poor student burst out laughing at the so-called proof, which consisted of picking out a word at random from every poem of Arariax, and several from Artiax, the much less gifted poet often confused with Arariax (much to his joy). Rattallan had assembled these into a complete mishmash of words out of which he had somehow divined his prophecy.
Given that there were several copies (including one that appeared to have been used as insulation) the student procured a copy, took it to the University Pub, and proceeded to share a good laugh with his friends at the expense of the long dead scholar. They left the copy as payment for their drinks after realizing they had no money. The documents changed hands several times that night, eventually ending up in the pouch of an Iganeftan noble who was riding through. Wondering how it had gotten there, he read it once he got home and immediately panicked. Since the methods of Rattallan were as inscrutable of those of any other scholar, he gave it due respect as the immutable truth.
Panicking further, he ran to the Lord proclaiming his find. The Lord, rather grumpy at being awoken in the middle of the night, refused to listen. Unfazed, the noble immediately ran to the street corner where in the general populace of Ghyll he found a more receptive audience. Word spread quickly, and if not many believed, almost all at least heard. Certainly, Ghyllians had been through this kind of thing before, and many of them were not about to worry until they had some proof. Unfortunately, they got it.
The Events Themselves
Three days before the 12th of Jole, -101 EC, Ghyll suddenly went silent. Nobody, it seemed, could hear anything. The only places unaffected were those that rarely, if ever, saw visitors and were thus isolated from the rest of Ghyll at large. Of course, these places could not inform others of their auditory status. A few Ghyllians were immune to the effect, but due to the fact that the ones affected couldn't hear them, it really didn't matter.
Riots proceeded, mayhem happened, and religious orders found themselves full of applicants. This generally destructive state of affairs continued until about three hours before the midnight on the 11th, just as Perky began to set. Suddenly, all of Ghyll could hear again. (Well, not all. Those that couldn't hear before still couldn't hear, but they never really had understood what all the fuss was about anyway. A few others never regained their hearing, but that's life.) The populace unanimously shrugged and went off to enjoy their day.
What Really Happened
Everything related above is true. However, there are a couple of facts missing. First of all, how did word of the imminent destruction permeate the world so quickly and thoroughly? It has been shown that unofficial Bindlet Ball teams (many years before the formation of the League), wishing to create a populace more attached to the sport, carefully orchestrated all of the happenings. Regularly travelling long distances to reach remote fields, it gave them the perfect opportunity to cause all of Ghyll to, at least, hear the predictions. But why did everyone lose their hearing? The answer to this question is hotly debated and no definitive conclusion has been reached. The only thing everyone seems sure of is that it is the Bindlet Ball teams' fault.
Regardless, the outcome was a complete and utter success. Bindlet Ball became even more popular then it was and no one was willing to do anything to the teams needed to play the game. Several smaller stunts have since been pulled by various other organizations, and events of this type are the subject of one of my favorite lectures: "Why Graduate Students Shouldn't Steal From Their Professors". An excellent moral, don't you agree?

The Consumer-First Energy Act, legislation to address the root causes of high gas prices, is supported by energy and economy experts as well as labor, environmental, business, rural and seniors' advocates. They agree that this bill will address the root causes of gas prices, spur innovation and development of alternative energy and reduce America's dependence on oil.
Energy and economy experts support the Consumer-First Energy Act:
Former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich Said Consumer-First Energy Act Will Help Cut the Price of Gas at the Pump. "The Consumer-First Energy Act is not a gimmick. It will genuinely help cut the price of gas at the pump, and it's exactly what hard-pressed Americans need right now." [Senate Democratic Communications Center Press Release, 5/7/08]
Tyson Slocum, Director of Public Citizen's Energy Program, Called Consumer-First Energy Act Is a Comprehensive Approach to High Energy Prices. "This comprehensive approach to high energy prices – holding both oil companies and financial speculators accountable for the record prices we're paying for energy – is the type of leadership America needs to solve our energy crisis. Oil Companies like Exxon are spending more buying back stock – $40 billion since January 2007 – than on their entire global capital expenditures. If oil companies aren't willing to use their record earnings to invest in the energy infrastructure improvements we need to break our oil addiction, then it is only fair to prod them to do so by levying a new income-tax surcharge. And restoring transparency and disclosure in futures markets where prices of energy are actually set will clamp down on the harmful speculation that is responsible for the spiking price of oil." [Senate Democratic Communications Center Press Release, 5/7/08]
Dan Weiss, Senior Fellow and Director of Climate Strategy at the Center for American Progress Action Fund Called Consumer-First Energy Act a Lifeline to Families Struggling With High Fuel Prices. "This bill is a lifeline to families struggling with high fuel prices. The plan would finally rein in big oil and OPEC – measures that were blocked last year by congressional conservatives. Record fuel prices should lead them to choose families' wallets over oil companies' profits in 2008." [Senate Democratic Communications Center Press Release, 5/7/08]
Broad coalition of advocates supports the Consumer-First Energy Act:
Teamsters Said Consumer-First Energy Act Is a Common-Sense Approach to Protecting American Workers. In a statement, Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa said, "More than 600,000 Teamsters earn their living driving vehicles that run on petroleum-based fuel. These exorbitant prices are hurting our employers, whether they are freight or parcel delivery companies, airlines, police departments, grocery chains or school bus companies. High gas prices are eating into paychecks and destroying family budgets. Families have to pay more for essentials because they cost more to deliver. This bill is a common-sense approach to protecting American workers from greedy corporations and speculators." [Teamsters Press Release, 5/8/08]
AFL-CIO President John Sweeney Applauded Introduction of Consumer-First Energy Act Because it Will Put Americans to Work and Keep Future Energy Costs Low. "We applaud the introduction of the Energy Price Reduction Act of 2008, which is a common sense approach to skyrocketing gas prices… Congress must act because, as we have seen over and over again, the Bush – Cheney White House will never interfere with Big Oil's ability to turn record profits at the expense of the American public. We are particularly encouraged by the provisions designed to encourage investment in new energy capacity. Not only will this put more Americans to work but it should also help keep future energy costs reasonable. Working people are fed up with policies that put corporate profits ahead of workers' prosperity. It's time to fill the tank with affordable gas, make a complete U-turn from the policies of the past, and clear the road for working people to reach the America dream." [AFL-CIO Statement, 5/9/08]
Sierra Club Executive Director Said Consumer-First Energy Act Will Help Us Break Our Addiction to Fossil Fuels. "The Sierra Club is thrilled with this bill… The bill will actually protect consumers, put America on the path toward a clean energy future, and finally put the brakes on the taxpayer-funded giveaways that have been helping fuel Big Oil's record profits. It's time for wind farms, not windfalls. Right now, Big Oil has consumers over a barrel but isn't even paying its fair share. This bill will take back the giveaways to polluters and instead put that money where it will do some good by investing it in clean, renewable energy, energy efficiency, and the other smart energy solutions that will help us break our addiction to fossil fuels, bring energy costs back under control, and put our economy back on the path to prosperity. This bill offers Senators the chance to stop writing a blank check to Big Oil and begin to help their constituents who are clamoring for real relief from pain at the pump." [Statement from Carl Pope, Sierra Club Executive Director, 5/7/08]
Small Business Majority Said Consumer-First Energy Act Will Help Protect Small Businesses. "Leaders in Congress have introduced the Consumer-First Energy Act of 2008 that will help protect American small businesses against price gouging and price manipulation. It's a good first step towards stabilizing energy prices. By punishing price gouging, and giving the President authority to declare an energy emergency if there is a shortage, disruption, or significant pricing anomalies, small businesses will be protected against unfair and unlawful increases in gas prices that cut into their bottom line. Stabilizing the price of gas by suspending increases to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve through December 2008, limiting the price impacts of excessive speculation, and giving the Attorney General the power to bring action against any country or company that is colluding in setting the price of energy products will also help protect small businesses from being forced to shut their doors if gas prices climb too high." [Small Business Majority, Statement of Support for Consumer-First Energy Act, 5/7/08]
My Rural America Called for Passage of Consumer-First Energy Act. "On behalf of rural Americans, we urge immediate passage of the Consumer-First Energy Act of 2008… As the Consumer Federation of America confirms, rural households consistently have been hit hardest by rising fuel prices because first, rural households are more likely to have a vehicle and to be required to drive at least 15% more miles than do those who drive in metropolitan areas. This rising cost of fuel means less money for essentials – food, rent, house payments, and more. In addition, farmers' cost of doing business has dramatically increased, resulting in more stress on food prices." [Letter from My Rural America, 5/1/08]
Member of Alliance for Retired Americans Praised Consumer-First Energy Act for Cracking Down on Price Gouging and Helping Seniors on Fixed Income Save Money on Gas Prices "And a special thank you to Senate Democratic leaders for introducing legislation that address the high energy prices that we are all experiencing… An extra dollar or two per gallon may not seem like a lot of money to a big oil executive, but to a senior on a fixed income – it is everything. When our costs go up and our income does not, that dollar means you don't know if you're going to have enough money to buy food after you fill up the tank… Finally, our government is addressing these problems that affect so many of us with legislation that will crack down on price gouging and force big oil to pay their fair share." [Statement by Josephine Rowe, Member of Alliance for Retired Americans, 5/8/08]


text: Running out of time before theU.S. trade sanctions are due to be imposed on Japanese cars next Wednesday, negotiators from both countries talked late into the night in Geneva, trying hard to forge a compromise.TIME's William McWhirterreports that in contrast to the rancorous exchanges between President Clinton and Japanese Prime Minister Tomiichi Murayama at last week's G-7 meeting in Halifax, the negotiators are now making steady progress. "The issues are pretty clear, as are the stakes," McWhirter says, noting that the threat of a potentially devastating trade war has both sides negotiating in earnest. "What isn't clear is the authority of the Japanese delegation to make the kind of substantial deal American automakers are looking for." McWhirter's congressional sources in Geneva think that Japan may soon send in senior ministers with the power to cut a deal.
