1. Call him by a private nickname
Nicknames usually stem from lighthearted affection or playful teasing, but over time, they become even more valuable. That's because they start to symbolize how long you've known each other – and how well. "Couples who have pet names and secret words are forming their own private world," says Amatenstein. And if you don't have pet names for each other, make one up! You may feel silly at first, but rest assured it will give him the warm fuzzies every time you use it.
2. Reminisce
What's worse than living in the past? Ignoring it altogether and never taking a moment to reflect on the happy times you've shared along the way. "Reminiscing together strengthens your bond and your sense of history together," says Meyers. After all, the fact that you've been together for as long as you have can say a lot about how much you mean to each other and how well you know each other. Remember that B&B where you sat on that porch swing for hours on end? Remember the incredible gourmet meal you shared on your 30th birthday?
3. Grudges, be gone
On the flip side, accepting his apology can be a struggle, as well. You may say you're ready to move on, all the while keeping your actual feelings bottled up. You may not believe that he's being sincere, or maybe he's apologizing for something that ruffled the balance of your trust. But saying you accept his apology too soon doesn't benefit anyone, says Amatenstein: "Holding a grudge will make you bitter and push him away." Instead, be clear about why you're unsure and ease into a resolution; otherwise he'll think you're back to normal when the truth is, you're not.
4. Reveal a sexual fantasy
Many women keep their fantasies to themselves because they're too shy or embarrassed to reveal them even to a spouse. But that could be a mistake, says Kerner: "Fantasy can make familiar moves feel fresh and sexy." Even incorporating a sexy scenario into your standard foreplay routine can make a huge difference, he explains. "It's practically guaranteed to enhance arousal. Plus, couples who fantasize together also feel less judged by their partner and ultimately more connected." That's potentially a pretty substantial pay-off – but only if you're willing to step out of your comfort zone.
5. Brag about your guy
Did your guy do something brag-worthy, like making you a gourmet dinner, getting a promotion at work or scoring a touchdown in his Sunday flag football game? Be his biggest cheerleader and shout it from the rooftops. And don't be confused: Bragging isn't necessarily about being conceited or smug. "Bragging about him in front of others makes him feel accepted and loved," says Meyers. "He'll beam with pride and feel closer to you as a result." Think he'll be embarrassed? Then remember that bragging about him when he's not present, and telling him about it later, also counts.
6. Send flowers for no reason
That's right: Flowers aren't just for us ladies! Men may be teased a bit at the office for receiving roses, but inside most will just feel adored. You know your guy best, though, and flowers are just one example – any gift will do. Food gifts, such as cookie basket, are also a good bet. "Men are trained to give us flowers and little gifts," says Amatenstein. "How appreciative he'll be to receive his own!" As an added advantage, showing him how good it feels may lead him to send you a gift back at some point, as well.

7. Offer a massage
If you like this article, click the Like button below so that your friends can get the chance to read it as well.
"Giving your partner a massage is a great way to let him indulge in the sensual pleasures of sex – and to surrender to the power of arousal," explains Kerner. "A sexy massage may lead to sex or to a variety of different paths to gratification." But if you really want to make him feel pampered, here's the secret: Don't ask for anything in exchange – not sex and not a reciprocated massage or anything else. Make it all about him. (It will be your turn another time).
8. Go to religious services together
Varying religious beliefs may be one of the most common causes for break-ups, even divorce, but the opposite is also true. "Studies have shown that sharing a belief in something outside oneself is a powerful marital glue," says Amatenstein. "And couples who pray together are less likely to stray." So visit your church, synagogue or mosque together regularly to center yourselves as individuals and as a couple. Sermons, and even your spirituality as a whole, can lead to illuminating conversations about your morals and upbringing.
9. Get competitive (really)
Usually when you hear about game-playing in reference to relationships, it's the bad kind of games – the scheming kind. But those aren't the ones we're talking about. In this case, the couple that plays together stays together: Scrabble, Boggle, Taboo, whichever may be your favorites. "Games provide a vehicle for fun competition that can spark a lot of exciting feelings between the two of you," says Meyers. As long as there's laughter, consider it a win.
10. Have an impromptu dance party for two
Long week? Let loose! Turning on some tunes, cranking up the volume and getting jiggy with it can break tension of all kinds for a twosome. It reintroduces silliness to your relationship and breaks down barriers, especially when things have reached the point of all seriousness all the time. "A dance party for two can be incredibly fun and sexy," says Kerner. Feeling a little risqué? "Start fast and then end slow, removing a few items of clothing in between." Sounds like a vote for "Sexual Healing!"Expand your communication: being partners in a car, mortgage payment or a bank account can sometimes make a long term relationship feel like a business arrangement. It was not so when you first met and fell in love. Then you could talk to each other about everything. So expand your communication with your partner beyond the day-to-day talk of who is going to get milk or who is taking the kids to school and try to have a real conversation with your partner whenever is possible.

The jQuery language is also easily extendable through the use of plugins. On this week's episode of View Source, I will show you how to use jQuery Cycle, a jQuery plugin, to create an easy to code photo rotator for your site. The code is really easy to work with.
First, we'll need some code with images. For example, create a list of images like this:

This is just a series of image tags, wrapped around a div with rotator designated as the class. Designating the class allows us to target our photos with the plugin.
You'll need to call two libraries. The jQuery library as well as the jQuery Cycle plugin. You can do that with two lines of code:

You should put this code either in the  section of your page or before your closing  tag. If you're using WordPress, you can just add the second line into the header.php file of your template, because WordPress includes jQuery as a default.
Now for the jQuery part:

In this part we use the

So there you have it, a photo rotator in less than 15 lines of code including the code for the images. Not bad for a few minutes of work.

Lord Tanlaw asked Her Majesty's Government:
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (Lord Whitty): The department does not collect details about the percentage of local authorities that use broadband data transmission services. The issue of the percentage of local authorities which use broadband data transmission services in Scotland and Wales is a matter for the Scottish Parliament and the Welsh Assembly.
Lord Northbrook asked Her Majesty's Government:
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Home Office (Lord Bassam of Brighton): As part of his work, Lord Birt has met the Attorney-General once, the Home Secretary twice and other Home Office Ministers of State.
Lord Northbrook asked Her Majesty's Government:
Lord Bassam of Brighton: Lord Birt is an unpaid adviser. He has received just over £300 in out-of-pocket expenses.
Lord Northbrook asked Her Majesty's Government:
Lord Bassam of Brighton: Lord Birt has made periodic use of meeting rooms in the Cabinet Office and 10 Downing Street to see criminal justice organisations. One member of Cabinet Office staff has been employed part-time providing administrative support to Lord Birt's work. It is not possible to calculate the marginal attributable costs of this support.
Lord Northbrook asked Her Majesty's Government:
Lord Bassam of Brighton: Lord Birt has had access to papers from the Home Office, the Lord Chancellor's Department, the Crown Prosecution Service and Customs and Excise. He has not seen papers on subjects outside his brief.
Lord Tanlaw asked Her Majesty's Government:
Lord Bassam of Brighton: Our understanding of a broadband service is one which provides the capacity for multiple users to transmit and receive simultaneously. The broader the band, the greater the number of users and data capacity which individuals can use. Using that definition, it is possible to say that 40 per cent of police force or divisional headquarters in England and Wales currently have access to broadband data transmission services through the Criminal Justice Extranet (CJX). The plans are to extend the service to 100 per cent of forces in England and Wales by March 2002. None of the Scottish forces has CJX access yet but they plan to take the service when their funding is in place. The staff who access CJX services are or will be trained and computer literate.
The CJX broadband service provides the potential to access the Internet. Forces will decide themselves whether to take this facility and whether to extend the facility to police stations or to individual police officers. The degree of access will also depend on the capability of their own force systems and networks.
The Airwave project is currently piloting a digital radio network service which will be capable of handling data transmissions within the next three months. Airwave will make data accessible by individual police officers through their radio handsets or vehicle terminals, as well as through control rooms. Officers will be fully trained in the use of Airwave.
Lord Avebury asked Her Majesty's Government:
Lord Bassam of Brighton: The information is not readily available and could be obtained only by examination of individual case records and is, therefore, available only at disproportionate cost.
Information on the total number of applications awaiting an initial decision is published monthly on the webpage: http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/immigration1.html. The provisional number of applications awaiting an initial decision at the end of March 2001 was 36,390.
Lord Tebbit asked Her Majesty's Government:
Further to the Written Answer by Lord Bassam of Brighton on 28 March (WA 42), whether it is no longer their intention to fulfil the undertaking given by Lord Bassam on 31 January (H.L. Deb., col. 686) that the advice given and conclusions reached by Lord Birt in his role as adviser on crime would be reported to Parliament.[HL2011]
Lord Bassam of Brighton: As my previous Answer of 28 March made clear, Lord Birt's advice and conclusions were one of the inputs reflected in the Government's strategy document Criminal Justice: The Way Ahead (Cm 5074). That document was published and placed before Parliament on 26 February 2001.
Lord Lester of Herne Hill asked Her Majesty's Government:
Further to the Written Answer by Lord Bassam of Brighton on 1 May (WA 258-59), how they and the Immigration Service intend to define and identify whether a person is a ''Tamil'' for the purpose of the authorisation permitting the Immigration Service to discriminate against members of this ethnic group; and whether they include in this definition Tamils from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Canada, the United Kingdom and elsewhere; and[HL2061]
Further to the Written Answer by Lord Bassam of Brighton on 1 May (WA 258-59), what are the particular adverse consequences for members of each ethnic group identified in the authorisation permitting the Immigration Service to discriminate on the grounds of ethnic or national origin in the examination of passengers made on 1 May; and[HL2060]
Further to the Written Answer by Lord Bassam of Brighton on 1 May (WA 258-59), what is the precise nature of the discrimination on the basis of ethnic or national origin by the Immigration Service in the examination of passengers which is permitted by authorisation made on 1 May; and[HL2059]
Further to the Written Answer by Lord Bassam of Brighton on 1 May (WA 258-59), whether they will identify the particular risks posed to the effective operation of immigration controls by each of the following: Tamils, Kurds, Pontic Greeks, Roma, Somalis, Albanians, Afgans and ethnic Chinese presenting a Malaysian or Japanese passport or any other travel document issued by Malaysia or Japan.[HL2058]
Lord Bassam of Brighton: Immigration Service staff will take into account a combination of different indicators in identifying relevant ethnic or national groups for the purpose of operating the immigration control in accordance with the authorisation announced on 1 May. These will include language or dialect spoken, geographical origin, pattern of travel and, where relevant, the passenger's apparent lineage. In some cases, the passenger's ethnic or national origin will be known from intelligence received or from statements made by the passenger. In other cases it may become apparent from answers to routine questions posed at the control or on the landing card. The authorisation will be used by officials responsibly and with due care. The authorisation applies to passengers of Tamil ethnic or national origin, irrespective of their nationality, because of the wide range of national travel documents used in attempted illegal entry by some members of this group and because of the attempted abuse of asylum provisions by those persons purporting to be fleeing persecution in Sri Lanka who are in fact nationals of other countries.
The particular adverse consequences for passengers in the groups covered by the authorisation are that they may be delayed at the immigration control longer than other persons in the same circumstances and may have conditions attached to their leave to enter or temporary admission. Where a passenger in one of the groups concerned meets the requirements of the Immigration Rules, this delay might only be a matter of minutes or there may be no delay at all if the immigration officer does not consider that a closer examination is necessary.
The authorisation provides that an immigration officer may, in respect of the groups covered by the authorisation, by reason of a passenger's ethnic or national origin subject them to a more rigorous examination than other person in the same circumstances. The officer may exercise powers under Schedule 2 to the Immigration Act 1971, namely: requiring someone to submit to further examination; requiring them to furnish information and documents; examining and detaining their documents; searching them; detaining them pending further examination; and granting temporary admission.
The officer may impose a condition or restriction on someone's leave to enter or their temporary admission.
In assessing the risk to the control posed by the groups listed in the authorisation, my honourable friend the Home Office Minister of State (Mrs Roche) has taken into account statistical evidence and other intelligence material. Statistical data are not held on Tamils as an ethnic group, but Sri Lankans of non-Tamil ethnic origin do not constitute a significant threat to the immigration control. In 2000, there were 3,592 inadequately documented arrivals by Sri Lankans in the United Kingdom: 91 of these cases involved false passports, 44 cases involved false or no visa and 39 cases involved impersonation. In 2000, there were 1,733 and 3,086 inadequately documented arrivals from Iraq and Turkey respectively. Asylum statistics confirm that Kurds comprise the vast majority of irregular migrants arriving in the United Kingdom from those countries. In 2000, the Immigration Service encountered 204 cases of Greek passport abuse, many involving nationals of the Former Soviet Union. In 2000, the Immigration Service detected 223 attempts to enter the United Kingdom using forged or counterfeit passports by nationals of the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia. Asylum statistics confirm that Roma comprise the vast majority of irregular migrants arriving in the United Kingdom from those countries. In 2000, there were 1,099 inadequately documented arrivals from Somalia and 2,654 the previous year. In 1999, there were 1,993 inadequately documented Albanian arrivals, although the figure declined in 2000. In 2000, the Immigration Service detected 92 cases involving abuse of Japanese travel documents and 84 cases involving abuse of Malaysian travel documents in total. Chinese nationals seeking to circumvent the immigration control have been most commonly identified using these and, to a lesser degree, other documents.

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 10.1885 Wednesday, 3 November 1999.
Date: Tuesday, 2 Nov 1999 14:35:16 -0800
Subject: 10.1871 Re: Ages of Puberty
Comment: Re: SHK 10.1871 Re: Ages of Puberty
In Gilberto Freyre's classic study of Brazilian society, The Masters and
the Slaves, he argues that onset of puberty is accelerated in hot
climates (I think the argument is now out of favor), and supports his
case with a large number of end of the page citations to medical and
anthropological books and articles dealing with dates of puberty, of
course from his point of view. However, those materials, and sources
cited in them, are likely to contain leads to records of puberty in 16th
c. England or at least other countries in Europe. Hope this helps.
Cheers, Tony B.

Paul Draws Crowd in Meredith, N.H.
MEREDITH, N.H — Rep. Ron Paul drew more than 300 people to a hotel ballroom here, further sign that even if he may not win New Hampshire, the Texan is still one of the most reliable crowd magnets in the GOP field.
Polls show Mr.Paul with a lock on second place here, polling at 20% — 15 percentage points behind former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and nine points ahead of former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman. But Mr. Paul blanked Sunday when a reporter asked him how he could win the nomination without taking first in any nominating contests. (He took third in Iowa and his campaign said Sunday it will not contest Florida.)
"I'm not very good at answering questions like that about strategy," Mr. Paul said. "I keep doing the same thing over and over again."
Indeed, the libertarian-leaning congressman has said much the same as he has campaigned across the country this year: Cut federal expenditures by $1 trillion during his first year in office and disengage the U.S. from foreign entanglements. It's a policy mix that attracts fiscal conservatives but repels more hawkish Republicans.
On Sunday, for instance, Mr. Paul suggested it was unwise for the U.S. to conduct missions in Pakistan, activities that led to the killing of Osama Bin Laden this year.
"We go into Pakistan with no authority whatsoever, lob these bombs after one or two or three people who are some of the bad people and have innocent people killed," he said. "How would we react if somebody did that to us?"
As for strategy, Mr. Paul would only say that he is focusing a bit more on states that hold caucuses, rather than primaries, which tend to reward candidates with more devout, if fewer, supporters. Nevada holds its caucuses on Feb. 4.
The crowd number is also up for debate. Fire code capacity for the room is 300 and a hotel manager counted it at 450, which would include a wave of reporters. As expected, the count from the campaign is a bit higher: 500, it said in a press release shortly after the event.

Voters must register by Mon. for upcoming party primaries
By BRUCE ALSOBROOK, News-Telegram Managing Editor
Jan. 29, 2008 - Anyone who wants to have a say in any of the contested races in March party primaries needs to get down to the Hopkins County voter registrar's office pretty soon.
Next Monday -- as in Feb. 4, 2008 -- is the 29th day before the primary elections and consequently the last day to submit an application to vote in the March 4 primaries.
It is also the last day to make a change of address prior to the primary elections, although according to voting information on the Hopkins County website (hopkinscountytx.org), voters who submit a change of address after Monday may still be able vote.
"A voter who submits a change of address after this date may still be eligible to return to his or her previous precinct to vote under 'fail-safe' voting, if he or she still resides in the same political subdivision conducting the election," the information states.
A registered voter may cast a ballot in either the Democratic or Republican party primary elections. They may not, however, vote in both primaries, which will be held held Tuesday, March 4..
Voters also do not have to vote for the same candidates in the November general election as they voted for in the party primaries, either.
Voting in the primaries also has no affect on other local elections such as the City Council and school board elections that will be held in May.
The party primaries will decide the nominees for each party in various federal, state and county races. In some instances, the winners in the primary are virtually assured they will take office after the November elections, as a few of the candidates only have opponents in their own party primary. That would mean the only opponents they would face in November would be write-in candidates.
Early voting in both party primaries will commence Tuesday, Feb. 19, at the Hopkins County Clerk's Office at 306 North Davis St. (also known to longtime residents as the old home of Sulphur Springs Loan and Building Association), and continue weekdays during business hours through Friday, Feb. 29.
Early voting sessions will also be conducted from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 23, and 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 24.
Applications to vote by mail may also be made to the county clerk's office through noon on Tuesday, Feb. 26
Local races that are contested in either March or November include::
Precinct 1 Commissioner
REPUBLICANS: Incumbent Beth Wisenbaker is challenged in her bid for a fourth term by Will Woods.
DEMOCRATS: John W. Ragan is unopposed.
Precinct 3 Commissioner
REPUBLICANS: Phillip Anderson, owner of TriStar Alternator and Starter, and Ronald "R.D." Reed, a professional fireman with for 33 years, are seeking the GOP nomination.
DEMOCRATS: Incumbent Don Patterson is unchallenged for a fifth term.
REPUBLICANS: Norman Sanders Jr., a Sulphur Springs police lieutenant, is unopposed.
DEMOCRATS: Incumbent Sheriff Charles "Butch" Adams is unopposed.
62nd Judicial District Judge
REPUBLICANS: Erwin Cain, a trial lawyer, is unopposed on the GOP ticket.
DEMOCRATS: Incumbent Democrat Scott McDowell is unopposed on the Democratic Party ballot. He is seeking a second term.
State Representative, District 3
DEMOCRATS: Incumbent Mark Homer has no challengers on the Democratic Party ticket. He is seeking a fifth term.
REPUBLICANS: Kirby Hollingsworth is running for the Republican Party nomination for a third straight election. He has faced Homer in the previous two November general elections in 2004 and 2006.

Seward Roadway Inn to be demolished
Seward Borough Council Solicitor Scott Mears Jr. has been successful in linking together all interested parties to rid the borough of a long-standing borough eye sore — The Roadway Inn on Route 56.
At the February council meeting last week, Mears said the property located near the junction of Route 56 and 711 North was recently purchased through a free-and-clear sale at the Tax Claim Bureau by the neighboring Sunoco station owner, Harry Bess. Mears research determined that delinquent taxes had forced the sale of the inn. This prompted Mears to contact Bess, whose now-vacant Sunoco station adjoins the inn's property, and alert him of the upcoming sale.
PennDOT recently offered a free demolition of the inn. Once the bid is accepted for a contractor to demolish the old bridge on Route 56, clean fill from that demolition will be placed on the site of the old inn in exchange for demolishing the inn, according to Mears.
In other business:
• Seward Borough Council Secretary-Treasurer Kate Colt presented in the tax collector's report: earned income tax $2,307.68, local service tax $2,021.42, real estate tax $522.06, per capita tax - fire $33 and delinquent per capita tax - fire $11. Additional monies were received from the borough's insurance agency, Mos Holder Insurance Agency, in the amount of $104.57 as part of a rebate incentive for keeping the borough's insurance losses down. Other checks received by the borough include $1,573 as a result of a workman's compensation audit and $3,261.45 from Comcast as franchise tax due the borough as a result of the number of residents who have signed on with the carrier.
• Police chief Bob Malnofsky reported the police force worked 336¾ duty hours in January. There were 23 traffic citations and 17 incidents which included three motor vehicle accidents. The force's two cruisers listed 1,127 miles driven and $482.25 was spent on gas for the month.
•The Ford Explorer police vehicle was damaged after sliding on ice onKeystone Street during the recent bad snow storms. Damages to a parked vehicle involved in the incident are estimated to be $3,000. The Ford Explorer's damage is estimated at $2,912. Malnofsky said the patrol car is still in compliance and is currently operating as a second police vehicle. The patrol car will go out of service when a date can be scheduled for body work and paint repair.
• Council member Shawn Shaftic said the Laurel Valley Baseball Association will be using the borough's baseball field this year. Sign up for T-ball and minors/majors is Saturday. The association will mow the field throughout the baseball season in exchange for use of the ball field.
• Council member Fran Hajjar and Veteran's Memorial Committee member Sandy Mitchell informed Seward residents about the proposed veteran's memorial monument. They collected $1,980 toward the $8,700 cost of the monument.

[quote:Anonymous Coward 1554286:MV8xNzU0NTQ3XzI5MTg1MjcxXzIxMDBFMUMw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1554286:MV8xNzU0NTQ3XzI5MTg0NDMwXzhFNUEwRjg1] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1554286:MV8xNzU0NTQ3XzI5MTg0MjAwX0ExRkEyMEY0] [quote:YOUCITY23 1554286:MV8xNzU0NTQ3XzI5MTgzODY2XzhFODM5RjI4] The Cahokia mounds are located in and around Cahokia IL which is just across the river from St.louis, which was once known as mound city. Even today you can find earth mounds in St.louis. Cahokia Illinois was once the center of trade & knowledge and Probobly just about everything else in north America for hundreds of years. The is a researcher named Chad Stemeke who has uncovered lots of interesting things about Cahokia "City of the Sun" and he has some fascinating theories about what he's found. Ive coresponded with Chad through email many times and he seems to be a very genuine kind hearted person who is just searching for truth and knowledge like the rest of us , basically on the journey. I will post a link to his site and post some of his work. [b] An entire ancient urban center aligned and correlated to the heavens, a scenario that peaks both our curiosity and wonder! In the heartland of America, Cahokia's ancient majestic mounds and plazas mark the four cardinal directions, "a reflection of the cosmos".(3) The largest of the mounds at Cahokia is the majestic Monks Mound. Monks Mound and several of the Plazas are aligned to the four cardinal directions and there are also several mounds in alignment with the spring and winter solstices. Author Sally Kitt Chappel points out, "With its plazas aligned on the cardinal directions and the mound of greatest height at the crossing of the plazas, it is clear that Cahokia is a landscape cosmogram."(4) Perceivably what the Cahokian's have done is to create a four part horizontal division of the world (north, east, south, and west) while at the same time creating a three part vertical sub-division into (the lower world, this world, and the heavens above). The Cahokia Mound site is a seven layered "cosmogram"! [/b] [/quote] Wikipedia - Woodhenge Woodhenge, a circle of posts used to make astronomical sightings, stood to the west of Monk's Mound. Archaeologists discovered Woodhenge during excavation of the site and noted that the placement of posts marked solstices and equinoxes, like its namesake, Stonehenge.[12][13] Detailed analytical work supports the hypothesis that the placement of these posts was by design.[14] The structure was rebuilt several times during the urban center's roughly 300-year history. Evidence of another Woodhenge was discovered near Mound 72, to the south of Monks Mound. According to Chappell, "A beaker[15] found in a pit near the winter solstice post bore a circle and cross symbol that for many Native Americans symbolizes the Earth and the four cardinal directions. Radiating lines probably symbolized the sun, as they have in countless other civilizations."[16] (Cahokia's Woodhenge is not to be confused with another site of the same name that exists in the United Kingdom). The woodhenges were significant to the timing of the agricultural cycle. [/quote] For those of you who don't know , the article I copied dosnt say , but the wooden posts that were used in the Woodhedge circle were made of cedar. I found a very interesting question about a weird weather anomalie that happens near Woodhedge. I never heard this before but I think it's a very interesting question that I would love to explore it more. might start a thread if I don't get any responses here. [b] "One peculiar scenario that has apparently taken place for hundreds, maybe thousands of years is an unusual amount of lightning strikes within the Woodhenge. Archeologist have discovered that several of the Red Cedar post have been replaced due to frequent lightning strikes. This could imply that this sacred site may contain unusual amounts electromagnetic energies. In 1980, the central observer's post (cosmic axis) was struck by lightning and shattered while the Winter Solstice post also shows signs of lightning damage.(10)"[/b] If you have any theories at all about the unusual amount of lightning please share them! [/quote] Saint Louis IX was king of France during the time of the Crusades. His mother taught him his spirituality from a child. Louis wanted to make Paris the New Jerusalem. He bought from his cousin the Emperor of Constantinople the Crown of Thorns of Christ at a tremendous price. He had brought the passion relics from the Crusades. The relics needed to be housed in a beautiful chapel so he built Saint Chapelle to house them. Saint Chapelle has some of the most beautiful stained glass windows dating back to the 13th century. Saint Louis IX stained glass window at Saint Louis Cathedral in New Orleans http://www.asergeev.com/pictures/archives/compress/2006/519/03s.htm Saint Louis IX being showed the plans of Saint Chapelle by Pierre de Monterau. He is surrounded by masons one holding the Freemasons symbol of the trowel used for building. Saint Louis IX is wearing a gold robe of the Seal of Solomon in gold. The Seal of Solomon is a hexagram star. The star has a triangle pointing down with a gold compass on top forming a hexagram. Here is the design on Saint Louis IX robe. The Robe is in gold and one can see the Golden Triangles. Did Saint Louis IX possess the secret knowledge of Solomon. Saint Louis IX was known as a great defender of Justice. He sat under a [b]oak tree[/b] and dispensed Justice to his people. He was a brilliant negotiator and mediator. [/quote]

I'm not saying that the city that i was born in & lived in for my whole life is the center of the universe but the more that I uncover the more I begin to wonder. Id like to start this thread by talking about all of the strange and important facts or "conincedences" that I have found pertaining to St.Louis but there are other places suppounding St.louis such as southern IL, the NW Arkansas Ozarks region , and the NW Missouri Ozarks region, I would like to say that ever since I started instigating and researching my hometown & surroundings , I have wanted to & even encouraged others to do the same with their surroundings. I believe some people if not everyome live and or born in paticular places for a reason. I think most people would be suprised to find out the history and current events of their surroundings other than being dependent on the local or national media. So I mentioned some places other than St.Louis but they are are surrounding St.louis and I would eventually like to include facts and stories about the places I mentioned earlier as well.
Not everything I mention here will make sense to everyone but hopefully if just one person begins to thinks, if indeed their is any truth involved in anything i provide , then I will be more than happy. So at the risk of being ridiculed , nothing new, I will Probobly share some pretty weird theories and connections , which may or may not be Coincedences. For the record I do not believe in Coincedence but with everything their is an exception to almost every rule and someti.
I have more than a few theories and recently things have begun to happen more and more and it also seems like things are starting to fall into place with more and more dots starting to be connected. I'm not sure when or where I'm gonna start so if your curious and want to check out the thread then I would suggest that you just bookmark this or bump it and check it every so often. I'm in the middle of other things at the moment but I hope to get something started on here tomorrow. Thanks

I use a solution-focused approach to counseling where we start with 3 goals. These goals are things that might help improve your distress in the best way or shortest amount of time. From there, we dig deeper and figure more things out. I start with a goal first, because sometimes we just need something to change first. But in the end, it is best if we really talk, so we can potentially prevent the same distress from occurring in the future.

I am 42 yrs old 5'4" and 200 +or- a few #'s. I gave birth to 2 boys (22 and 9). I have had several surgeries and after a etopic in 2006 I was left with a lopsided dunlap of fat. I have wanted to do a TT for years.Finally debt free and ready to go. I recently lost my dad so I am still pretty emotional so I am hoping while I recover I do not have a balling spree as I have read things like that and sneezing,coughing and laughing are the worse.
I just took some pics of my belly and OMG what a shock I never realized how bad my strech marks are I guess cuz I can't see them over the fat..LOL...
I have been reading this site for hours and have been inspired by many so I decided to attempt this (even though I am no computer whiz)in hopes to inspire someone else on their journey. I currently live in Lakeland, Fl and I will be using a Dr. in Maitland,Fl about 1.5 to 2 hours from my home which the drive concerns me afterwards as I have a new car and don't want throw up in it...how stupid is that? HAHA!
I am getting a full TT and lipo on my hips on Friday and I can't wait. I hope my results turn out as well as some of the ones I have seen. I have tried to look at before and after shots of people who I think I look sort of like. I must say I am concerned since the dr said" you'll still be thick" not sure exactly what that meant but I'm OK with thick as long as I don't have the dunlap.I wear a 16 and I know I will still wear a 16 afterwards but they should fit better and would love to be asble to feel good about tucking in a shirt again.
To be frank...I am not a dieter, and do not exercise so losing weight has not been a priority which I know sounds crazy but it's the truth. I am hoping with the dunlap gone I will be more inspired to start walking and maybe exercise some. I have although started watching what I eat better so that is a start. I am starting to get freaked out but excited just the same. I will have to stay overnight with the dr. so I hope all goes well, I have been preping for this for awhile and I just know there nis something I will miss or forget. I would welcome ANY suggestions for before and after prep. Thanks to everyone for reading. I'll update as I go..Wish me luck!!!

Javier Beltran's Federico Garcia Lorca tells Matthew McNulty's Luis Bunuel why he can't live in Spain in a brand new clip of Robert Pattinson-starring drama 'Little Ashes'.
Another new clip from "Little Ashes" has been unraveled. This clip which is posted exclusively at Apple follows a conversation between Javier Beltran's Federico Garcia Lorca and Matthew McNulty's Luis Bunuel. In it, Lorca recalls his younger year in Spain and why his experience there makes him unable to live in the country.
Set against the backdrop of Fascist Spain in 1922, the Regent Releasing drama follows three of the era's most creative young talents, Salvador Dali, Federico Garcia Lorca and Luis Bunuel. Setting off on a course to change their world, the three form a bond when they meet at university. But, their friendship becomes strained as Dali and Lorca's relationship develops into an unusual love affair.
Taking its title from Salvador Dali's 1927-28 painting Cenicitas, "Little Ashes" stars Robert Pattinson as Dali, Javier Beltran as Lorca and Matthew McNulty as Bunuel. This drama film from director Paul Morrison has been premiered at the 16th annual Raindance film festival in London back in October. It will get its limited U.S. release on May 8.

For the last several years, Faith Hill has been getting us ready for "the game that bleeds red, white, and blue" -- "Sunday Night Football" on NBC. However, her time with the Peacock Network has come and gone. On Monday, Hill announced on her Facebook page that she's parted ways with SNF, calling it a "difficult" and "emotional" decision. "Amazing 2 have been part of SNF - an honor. I've just let everyone there know it's time 2 let someone else rock the open. Difficult decision. Kinda emotional. Love all u guys at SNF - I'll b watching!!!" Hill wrote. The 45-year-old country star has been rocking the broadcast for the previous six years, providing a high-octane opening for millions of football-loving viewers. There's been no indication as to why she decided to leave, though "Sunday Night Football" executive producer Fred Gaudelli tweeted he has "great love and appreciation" for Hil...

An Australian Federal Police boast, on the ABC's Four Corners program, about officers breaking up an underground hacker forum, has backfired after hackers broke into a federal police computer system. Security consultants say police appear to have been using the computer as a honeypot to collect information on members of the forum but the scheme came undone after the officers forgot to set a password. Last Wednesday, federal police officers in co-operation with Victoria Police executed a search warrant on premises in Brighton, Melbourne, connected to the administrator of an underground hacking forum, r00t-y0u.org, which had about 5000 members.
Many details of the investigation were revealed for the first time on Four Corners last night. After the raid, the federal police covertly assumed control of the forum and began using it to gather evidence about members. "We can operate in a covert activity here fairly seamlessly with no harm to our members with continual and actual significant penetration," Neil Gaughan, national manager of the federal police's High Tech Crimes Operation, told Four Corners.
However, what the federal police did not know was that hackers had already cottoned on to their plan. Police were monitoring the forum by logging into the account of the administrator they had raided, but this aroused suspicion among members who knew the raid had taken place. A hacker broke into the federal police's computer system and, according to a source close to the investigation, accessed both police evidence and intelligence about federal police systems such as its IP addresses.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in '2005 - 2009 Specific Tech' started by j_j, Apr 20, 2009.
I stand corrected. But it was and is a genuine Shelby and a heck of a price.
JJ - NADA lists the '07 SGT. With 18k miles, Atlanta market, $31075 clean retail (dealer), about $26000 clean wholesale. I would split the difference, offer about $28500 for a nice sale by owner. Good luck!
Hey Many thanks for the price info.
Got the Shelby GT for $27,300 after some back and forth. plus had remainer of the warranty and all maintenance for 3 years.
So way cool, the owner is going to buy a 2010 mustang.
Thanks for the help, now need to get the car washed and detailed for the weekend
Many thanks Stangnet forum!
He gave up his SGT for a 2010 Mustang (blah)? Sounds like the guy should be a "leaser". I HAVE TO HAVE WHATS NEW!
Agreed. He may regret that one...
i was confused when i saw i shelby gt the other day, thought someone just bought a gt and made it look like a shelby, this clears alot up lol.
Odd that I stumbled upon this thread. I actually am on the fence of what mustang to buy next. I was very intrigued by these Shelby GTs that I really never heard much about before.
There is one at a local dealer for $26,999 with 6,400 miles on it. I may go check it out.....
J.J, post some pics of your new ride, congrats man

Competitive cities in the global economy
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, 2006 - Business & Economics - 445 pages
Urban areas are now home to more than half the population of OECD countries. Megacities like Tokyo with more than 35 million people and Mexico with about 18.5 million, and large agglomerations such as Montreal, Helsinki, Madrid and Stockholm are often called 'engines of national growth'. They represent an important part of the national economy (up to 50% for Budapest, Seoul and Helsinki) and feature higher GDP per capita and productivity levels than their country's average. But there is also an urban paradox as cities also harbour large pockets of unemployment and poverty and suffer fromĀproblems such as congestion, pollution and crime. So are urban regions sustainable in the long term? Balancing the economic advantages of cities with their accompanying problems, policy makers are rethinking the strategies to keep these 'engines' running smoothly.ĀĀ
Competitive Cities in the Global Economy is a synthesis report drawing from OECD metropolitan reviews. Based on a unique international database of 78 metro-regions, it provides indications related to large cities' performance within their countries. The report also addresses key dilemmas, including competitiveness and social cohesion, intergovernmental relationships and urban finance.
"This is a 'must read' publication, not only for those who already believe in the key importance of urban policy, but even more so for those who remain to be convinced."
Alberto Ruiz-Gallard¾n, Mayor of Madrid, Spain
"The most comprehensive examination of the territorial dimension underlying economic growth today."
Saskia Sassen, author of Territory, Authority, Rights: From Medieval to Global Assemblages (Princeton University Press 2006).
"With the nation-state and the corporation seen as the world's two competing economic and social units, the regional economy is often overlooked. It's refreshing to see such detailed attention paid to its role as the real motor force of international growth."
Richard Florida, author of The Flight of the Creative Class.
"This report on cities demonstrates that economic prosperity and social well-being are inseparable."
Jean-Louis Borloo, Minister of Labour, Social Cohesion and Housing, France.
"A striking report that will force governments to reconsider their urban agenda".
Dr. Giulio Santagata, Minister of Government's Programmes, Italy.
"This report provides invaluable advice for policy makers as our cities grapple with profound change."

"Looking for lessons 7, 8, 9 for the Wisconsin Institute of Horology Home Study Course."
I am now totally confused! I have this course (by F.A. Thomas), but no parts 7, 8, 9 as you describe.
Mine is a second edition, 1921, and is in three parts:
Part 1: elementary, lessons 1-6.
Part 2: Clock repair, lessons 1-4.
Part 3: watch repair, lessons 1-11.
Supplement 1: lesson 12
Supplement 2: lesson 13
There is nothing that fits your description! I suppose you have a different edition?Richard Watkins

I appreciate you taking the time to look over your stuff. I guess there are several versions of this material. Thanks for all your help. Perhaps the original correspondence course was reorganized when it was published as a book.

Supervisor Ally Miller filed a complaint last month against fellow Republican Supervisor Ray Carroll, accusing him of bullying her staff.
The Pima County Human Resources Department, however, cleared him of any wrongdoing.
The county launched an investigation after Miller filed a complaint on April 15, saying Carroll has a history of harassing her employees, including three incidents within the past couple of months, according to the complaint, which was obtained through a public records request.
Miller also mentioned an incident that occurred last year involving Carroll and a former staff member.
According to the complaint, Miller described Carroll's behavior as "forceful" and "aggressive," saying his actions were "unacceptable and bullying needs to be stopped."
Carroll denied the allegations, and said the complaint was another example of Miller's paranoid behavior toward the other supervisors.
The most recent incident happened at the April 15 Board of Supervisors meeting, when Joseph Cuffari, a constituent liaison for Miller, told Carroll he saw his daughter's tattoo on Facebook and said it had "very good detail work."
In the complaint, Cuffari said he made the comment because he went to high school with Carroll's daughter and he also liked drawing, designing and tattoo art.
Carroll originally responded in a good-natured manner and said "something along the lines of 'not being able to control your kids,'" Cuffari said in the report.
However, the two discussed the issue again outside, during a break at the meeting, when Carroll accused the staffer of stalking his daughter and demanded an apology from the Cuffari.
Cuffari apologized. Carroll then told him he should have never taken a job working for Ally Miller and he should "jump ship," according to the report.
Carroll denied making that statement.
Carroll said he gave Cuffari some career advice before he started working for Miller, telling him he shouldn't keep moving to different positions within the county. Cuffari previously worked for Wastewater Management and the Clerk of the Board before moving to Miller's office.
The report states a video camera caught footage of the two men talking outside, where the conversation lasted 33 seconds before they re-entered the building.
Neither Carroll nor the staffer appeared upset after the talk, according to the report.
Cuffari declined to comment for this story. Miller didn't respond to requests for comment.
Carroll said in an interview he initially didn't react to Cuffari's comments, but rather waited until a break during the meeting to talk to him outside.
Carroll was hoping Miller would correct Cuffari for making those remarks, he said.
"I took him outside and said 'you're beyond the pale,'" he said. "I said 'your behavior is unprofessional.'"
The two were involved in another incident on April 1, when Miller claimed Carroll berated Cuffari and another staff member for using video cameras to record each Board of Supervisors meeting.
Miller told Carroll to address his concerns with her if he had a problem with her staff "who are only doing their job as I direct them to do."
In another incident, witnesses said Carroll had conversation with another Miller employee, Shirl Lamonna, that caused her to break down in tears.
However, the report says Lamonna was having a bad week and Carroll's actions alone wouldn't have caused her to cry.
The interaction stemmed from Lamonna's decision to send an email to constituents, telling them to contact Carroll regarding a contentious zoning case in the Foothills area, which is in Miller's district.
The report also referred to an incident last year between Carroll and Jennifer Coyle, Miller's former chief of staff, who had a question about the minutes from a meeting where she wanted to make an appointment to the Pima County Fair Commission.
Overall, the report concluded that there was insufficient evidence to show Carroll tried to create an abusive working environment.
"It's another exaggerated moment from Supervisor Miller's office, crying wolf," Carroll said. "These things are beyond the political realm. She's a provocateur."

The day is not ideal and neither is the time and the flight is on UA (with a layover in Frankfurt for 3-4 hours) and CON (return - non stop). 2) I pay $800 for the ticket and get the day I want, the time I want and the airline I want (Air France, Luf, etc.). I'd save the free ticket for other future trip(s). My biggest issues are the day is not ideal and the layover basically kills our first day in Paris. Thoughts?

I've got one particular host on a LAN (sis0) that is trying to talk to
a machine on the DMZ, but all TCP traffic appears to be blocked by
this very early set of "rules"
@29 skip 1 in proto tcp from any to any flags S/FSRA
@30 block in log quick proto tcp from any to any
Here are a couple of log entries
Feb 9 15:09:12 firewall ipmon[86]: 15:09:12.276053 sis0 @0:30 b
-> 66.XXX.XXX.20,25 PR tcp len 20 52 -AF IN
Feb 9 15:09:54 firewall ipmon[86]: 15:09:54.174472 sis0 @0:30 b
-> 66.XXX.XXX.20,25 PR tcp len 20 64 -A IN
This doesn't look like the default deny rule since it is so early. So
I am guessing that there is something about a tcp packet with flags
that don't match S/FSRA that is considered worth blocking right away.
Reading ipf.conf, I take @29 to mean that out of the FIN, SYN, RST,
and ACK only the SYN flag should be set. But I don't understand TCP
enough to understand why that should be the case. (In fact, it seems
backwards to me)
Can anyone explain to me or point me toward docs that would help me
understand what this is about? And why one of my systems (the source
of these) would be generating these bad packets. Note that I am
trying to get that system to talk to port 25 on the destination
system. I am expecting port 25 traffic, but I find it blocked.

More Hawaii residents identify as mixed race
Hawaii, the nation's most ethnically diverse state, has seen a big increase in residents identifying themselves as being of mixed race, according to Census data released Thursday.
Among adults 18 and older, those saying they are of two or more races rose 31% from 2000 to 2010. They make up 18.5% of the state's adult population.
Among all ages, the increase of those citing two or more races was 23.6%. Overall, almost one in four Hawaii residents are of mixed race.
HAWAII: Local county, city Census data
CENSUS NUMBERS: Interactive map shows your state, county, locality
Residents citing some Asian heritage make up 57.4% of the state's population. Their numbers grew by 11%, though other ethnic groups grew more rapidly.
Sarah C.W. Yuan, a demographer at the University of Hawaii's Center on the Family, said the racial trends reflect growth and acceptance of multiracial marriages and an increased willingness of people to claim more than one racial identity. She said the decline in people identifying with one race only, from 78.6% in 2000 to 76.4% in the 2010 Census, was expected.
"Hawaii's population has been more diverse over the years," she said. "There are many multiracial marriages, so we do see two-or-more-race groups increase over the years."
Hawaii's overall population grew 12.3% to 1.36 million.
Census numbers where you live
Click here for an interactive map with data representing where you live.
The largest portion of that population, 953,207, resides in Honolulu County, which is the island of Oahu. It grew almost 9%. Larger growth was seen on some other islands, which locals call "neighbor islands." The island of Hawaii, known as "the Big Island," grew 24.5% to 185,079. Maui saw its population grow 21% to 154,834.
On Oahu, the biggest growth was in Pearl City, up 54%, and Ewa Gentry, up 359.4%. Both are developing areas west of Pearl Harbor and downtown Honolulu.
Kailua, the bayside community where President Obama and his family vacation, has a population of 38,635, up 5.8% over the decade.
The state's overall racial breakdown for the non-Hispanic population: white, 22.7%; black or African American, 1.5%; American Indian and Alaska Native, 0.2%; Asian, 37.7%; Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander, 9.4%.
The Hispanic or Latino population, of any race, was 8.9%, an almost 38% increase.
Among those identifying as mixed race, the largest group was a combination of Asian with Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islanders, 5.3% of the state's population. People identifying with three or more races totaled 113,640 people, or 8.4% of the population.

It wouldn't be surprising for frustrated investors in Foster's Group to complain of a hangover.
One year after boss Ian Johnston presented the company's much-heralded wine review to the market, the share price is now stuck in the same trading range.
Foster's presents a conundrum for many because while there is an obvious amount of long-term value in the company - particularly in the beer business - in the near term there are no obvious catalysts for an improvement in the stock price.
If anything, it faces short-term headwinds from the high Australian dollar, poor wine sales in the US and a loss of market share in beer. The Henry tax review is another uncertainty, although it is possible it could prove a positive, particularly if it hurts smaller wine competitors more than Foster's and/or causes a switch to beer.
Merrill Lynch analyst David Errington argues Foster's has misallocated its resources over the past decade by pumping money and management time into its wine division at the expense of its much larger earner, the beer division. (As an aside, Foster's has yet to find a new beer boss after Alex Stevens departed last month due to illness.)
Foster's is the largest player in the Australian beer market, but rival Lion Nathan National Foods now manufactures its products at a 9 per cent lower cash cost per case.
There is also an argument to be made that Foster's has not placed enough emphasis on increasing sales of its boutique beer brands, such as Fat Yak and Beez Neez, which can retail at $72 a case. Fosters' scale advantage means it can produce such beer at a much lower cost than the $50 a case it costs Little World Beverages (Little Creatures) to manufacture its products.
Errington values the beer division alone at $12.5 billion and says the current enterprise value ascribes no value to the wine division, which he thinks is worth $3 billion.
Few would rule out the possibility of Foster's spinning off its wine division this year (or perhaps attempt to find a buyer, such as the Chinese), but the odds still appear long at this point.
However, Morgan Stanley thinks pressure for a demerger could build around the time of its February 16 results - the first anniversary of its wine review - in order to increase accountability for each division's performance.

Any one in India who heard the live telecast of Barack Obama's speech at the national convention of the Democrats in the US on Friday would have noted how his primary attributes - poise, eloquence, ideological clarity - were lacking in Indian politicians, particularly of the Congress.
It may not be an overstatement, therefore, to link the Congress' present political discomfiture to the inability of its topmost leaders - the prime minister and the party president - to communicate more effectively with ordinary people. To be fair, there haven't been too many powerful orators in Indian politics in the post-Independence period. Jawaharlal Nehru and Atal Bihari Vajpayee were the two notable exceptions.
Besides, the Congress is not the only party which lacks skilful speakers. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is slightly better placed at present in the sense that Arun Jaitley and Sushma Swaraj, among the younger generation, are known for their articulateness. But they are usually more effective in confined spaces, as in parliament - when the BJP allows it to function - than at mass rallies.
Where the Congress is concerned, neither Manmohan Singh nor Sonia Gandhi is an effective public speaker, while it is too early to pass any judgment on the heir-apparent, Rahul Gandhi. As the prime minister's lacklustre Independence Day address this year showed, he is not very different from Sonia Gandhi who has sometimes been described - perhaps uncharitably - as a "reader" since neither Hindi nor English is her mother tongue.
But command over the language, or even the absence of a resonant voice, may not matter too much if the speaker is able to convey a sense of conviction about the party's objectives. Unfortunately, the Congress appears to have misplaced its ideological compass. Yet, it was certainly about where he wanted to take the country which made Nehru's speeches a riveting spectacle.
The occasions when his oratory appeared to scale ever greater heights were when he addressed the nation, via the radio, on Independence Day, routinely ending his speech with a stirring call to the audience to say Jai Hind with him three times. Since the Congress doesn't have national conventions of the kind which are held by the Democrats and the Republicans in America, the speech on Aug 15 from the ramparts of the Red Fort provides an opportunity for the prime minister to provide the listeners with an outline of his plans.
Never was such an effort needed more than at present when the Congress is reeling under manifold problems - a stagnating economy, allegations of corruption, outbreaks of violence, threats of internal insurgency and externally-sponsored (and also home-grown) terrorism. But neither Manmohan Singh nor Sonia Gandhi has been able to provide any indication of what the government and the party intend to do. It has always been the usual platitudes with little concrete action.
What is more, the reason for the inaction has been ascribed to a difference between them about the economic direction, with the prime minister favouring pro-market policies and the Congress president a welfare-oriented approach. But there are areas outside the economy where the two leaders could have been more forthright, such as about the confrontation between the Bodos, who are the sons-of-the-soil in Assam, and the Bangladeshi infiltrators, or between the Marathi sons-of-the-soil backed by the Shiv Sena and the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), and the Biharis, who have been called "infiltrators" by MNS leader Raj Thackeray.
Manmohan Singh's and Sonia Gandhi's silence on the neglect of historical factors and on sub-nationalism, as also on the bans on books and cartoons, is evidently due to a disinclination to be unambiguous lest such a stance should alienate a prospective vote bank. It is the same expediency which is behind the playing of the caste card, as in the case of reviving the caste census after eight decades, and opting for a constitution amendment to introduce quotas for Dalits in the matter of promotions.
When such cynical calculations guide a party, it is understandable why neither Manmohan Singh nor Sonia Gandhi nor Rahul Gandhi is willing to spell out his or her stand on any subject which is remotely controversial. As a result, the Congress has virtually abandoned its role as a major national party which provides guidelines as Nehru did as a champion of secularism or on the economy as when he described the dams and industries as the temples of modern India.
Although the BJP is currently hedging its bets on its ideology by keeping silent on the Ram temple issue, at least there is no doubt about its pro-Hindu outlook because of its thesis of Hindutva or cultural nationalism, with its slogan of one nation, one people, one culture. Similarly, regional outfits like the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), the Samajwadi Party, the Janata Dal-United (JD-U) and others in the Hindi belt are uninhibited about their casteism. As a result, there is no ambiguity about their views.
The Congress, on its part, probably has a guilty conscience about playing the caste card or the communal card, as when it opened the Babri Masjid gates, because of its non-sectarian tradition. Hence, it apparently regards silence as the better part of ideological valour.

Wed, 1 May 2013 20:05:24 -0300
Dear statalisters,
It´s me again trying to reshape a piece of my dataset.
I need to assign values from one trade classification (SITC) to
another (chain), but with the complexity that there may be one SITC
that corresponds to more than one chain. I then need to sum (with
-egen-) the values by SITC to group them into the chain
When I tried to use the -merge- command to do this, as the identifying
variable to use -merge- (SITC) "does not uniquely identify
observations in the using data" (sic), the system does not allow me to
merge the two datasets.
Does anyone know of any other command that allows me to do this?

Gulai Ayam with Roti Jala
Where are you right now?
I am in my office, trying not to notice the thick blanket of snow out the window, and dreaming of Malaysian food.
Of spicy chicken curry and spongy, lacy crepes for eating it with.
Forks are over-rated, everything should be eaten in a loving pinch of crepes.
Gulai Ayam
Coconut Milk Chicken Curry
adapted from Flatbreads and Flavors, Duguid and Alford
Spice Blends
Dry Spices
One 2-3 inch cinnamon stick
4 cloves
3 Tbsp coriander seed
1 Tbsp cumin seed
½ turmeric
2 tsp kosher salt
Wet Spices
4 dried red chillies, soaked in warm water for 15 minutes and drained
8 oz (½ lb) shallots, peeled and chopped
4 large cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
¼ cup unsalted cashews
Toast the dry spices, except the turmeric and salt, and grind fine in a spice grinder. Add the turmeric and salt and set aside.
Whiz up the wet spice mix in a food processor, set aside.
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs and/or breasts, cut into 1-2 inch pieces
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 stalks lemongrass, bashed with the blunt edge of a knife, cut into 2 inch pieces
1 cup coconut milk, plus more if necessary
1 cup water
4 cups baby spinach leaves
Heat up the vegetable oil in a large saucepan. Add in the wet spice mix and cook on medium/high for 4-5 minutes, stirring. Add in the dry spice mix and cook another minute. Add in chicken and stir to coat. Add in lemongrass, coconut milk and water. Let come to a boil, turn down heat and cover. Cook for 15 minutes, remove cover and cook another 15 minutes, letting sauce reduce and thicken. (Stir once in a while) Add in spinach and adjust seasonings and liquids to taste.
Serve with roti jala.
Roti Jala
Lacy Coconut Milk Crepes
adapted from Flatbreads and Flavors, Alford and Duguid
You can puncture the bottom of a can to create the holes for the batter to run through, or use a perforated spoon, as I did.
1 cup AP flour
½ tsp table salt
10 oz canned coconut milk, shaken
1 tsp vegetable oil
1 large egg
Combine the flour and salt well, make a well in the centre. Add in the liquids and stir well until smooth. Cover and let rest 30 minutes.
Heat up a non-stick crepe pan or lightly oiled cast iron pan to medium.
Lightly stir the batter and scoop up enough batter to make one crepe. Transfer to your perforated can or spoon over the hot pan and make swirling motions to make a lacy crepe. Cook 30 seconds on one side, a little less on the other, and stack on a plate lined with a tea-towel - with wax paper between each crepe to keep them from sticking together. Cover the finished stack with a tea-towel to keep them warm for serving.
