The Upper Mississippi originates at Lake Itasca, flows through the Twin Cities, and borders southern Minnesota, southern Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri. The Lower Region begins where the Ohio River drains into the Mississippi, and edges southern Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, and northern Louisiana. The Mississippi then branches into smaller channels before disappearing into the Gulf of Mexico.

The two regions share a river, but are as different as a Minnesota moose is to a Louisiana alligator! Neighborhoods in the Lower Mississippi Region retain a French or Spanish flair with added dashes of Caribbean and African customs. The Upper Region was primarily settled by people of Scandinavian, German, and Irish descent.
Settlement was slower in the north due to shallow rapids and winter accumulations of ice and snow. The smaller communities that were established here relied on local services before 20th century locks and dams introduced a smooth flow of commerce. In contrast, the lower Mississippi ran freely to the Gulf past deep, rich soil steaming under the hot sun. Grand plantations fueled by slave labor supplied America and much of the world with cotton, sugar, and rice.
The institution of slavery ultimately shaped the entire history of the United States, from war to racism to Civil Rights. And from lowly African field hollers sprang the blues, jazz, and rock and roll. Add a liberal dose of talent from the poets, writers, artists, and adventurers who had spent much of their lives along the Mississippi, and modern America was born!

Apple's iPhone is still 10 days from its official release, but that hasn't stopped the company from improving the device. The company announced on Monday improvements to the battery life and the top surface of the iPhone's display.

I live on a college campus that is wireless with 802.11n and need a good Gui interface like network manager to be able to connect to the different AP's as I travel around campus. Wicd has worked well for me in Ubuntu before. I was wondering if anyone has ever successfully installed it on BT3 or BT2 and if so, would please give the steps they took to get it to work.

Self-Help Book, EVERYDAY BOOK OF AFFIRMATIONS is Released
Lawson, Australia
Can spirits communicate messages through objects? Author Natasha Hill proves they can. In her newest self-help title "Everyday Book of Affirmations," (published by Xlibris AU) the author reveals astounding messages from spirit guides who have shared their wisdom through the original pastel paintings of her mother one remarkable evening in her lounge room. Unusual and intriguing as it may seem, the book exposes stunning, eye-opening truths about the nature of thought and its potential to redirect lives when understood and used right.
Each affirmation found within the content of Hill's book is highlighted by Dominique Lambert's fascinating masterworks. The powerful captions reveal positive affirmations that can be used for everyday motivation, serving as a guide for people who often see life as an onerous path of inevitably hostile circumstances. The paintings and the words speak as a whole, creating spiritual refreshment for the soul, an eventual awareness of the self and a conjuring aisle for renewed hope.
"Most people live life in a routine and opportunities and the beauty of other things around them go unnoticed," Hill says. "This book will help people see clearer what is happening in their own lives and what is happening around them. It will help them recognize their true thoughts and feelings and act upon them to move forward in life." "Everyday Book of Affirmations" invites readers to look into their own strengths and embrace positive thought to make way for newly opened opportunities that have been previously barricaded by an untrained, suppressed mind.

Nevada Age of Consent Lawyers
Locate a Local Criminal Lawyer
What is the Age of Consent for Sex in Nevada?
The age of consent refers to the minimum age of a person who can legally consent to having sexual intercourse with another person. This generally pertains to minors and their causes of action for statutory rape.
In Nevada, the age of consent for heterosexual conduct is 16 years old. For homosexual conduct, the age of consent is 18. This makes Nevada one of the few states that have explicitly permitted homosexual conduct by creating an age of consent for it.
What about Partners Close in Age?
However, as in most other states, Nevada law makes allowances for situations in which one or both partners are below the age of consent, but are very close to the same age.
Prosecutions are usually limited to situations in which the offender is over the age of 18. So, as long as both partners are under the age of 18, and they are reasonably close to the same age, it is unlikely that any prosecution will result in Nevada.
Consulting an Attorney
If you are accused of rape or are a victim of rape, then a criminal lawyer can help you. An experienced lawyer can either clear your name or help you seek legal recourse. He can help you file the appropriate paperwork in court and speak on your behalf.

PARAMOUNT - Paramount's 2011 City Council elections have been cancelled for the first time in at least two decades, according to city officials.
"I'm not sure this has ever happened in Paramount," said City Manager Linda Benedetti-Leal, who has been with the city more than 25 years. "We looked back and we couldn't find a precedent for this."
Three open council seats were expected to be on the March ballot, that is until the Dec. 10 deadline came and went with no challengers registered to run against the incumbents.
Only incumbent Councilmember Mayor Tom Hansen, Vice Mayor Daryl Hofmeyer and Councilmember Diane J. Martinez filed papers by the deadline.
Consequently, City Council members voted to cancelled the March elections.
"We passed a resolution to appoint the nominees to the position, so we won't be having an election," Benedetti-Leal said.
Each council member will serve the normal four-year term as if they were elected to office, she said.
Cancelled elections equal big savings for the city.
"We budget about $70,000 for the election, so we're going to be saving all that money, which is a good," she said.
That money can now be used for other budgetary needs in these tough times, she added.
Although there are no specific plans for the money, the city is preparing its mid-year budget, which will include the proposed election money.
According to the City Manager, the money will either go back into the general fund for operations, be used to supplement or used in the city's surplus.
A council with no opposition simply means the present council is doing something right, Benedetti-Leal said.
"I think it reflects the fact that there really are no issues in the community; no divisive issues that anyone feels needs to be address and I believe that's because we've been operating very smoothly in rough times," she said.
"I believe it's because the council has been doing a very good job. We've talk about the benefits of the general fund savings and things are really running well. It's nice to have that stability, especially when you have good leadership."

Incredible Performance From America's Got Talent – Academy of Villains [VIDEO]
We were just talking about this on the air!
We were just talking about this on the air!
NBC The programming schedule and rules continue to change and defy logic on NBC's America's Got Talent... But I'm still watching! Last night was a YouTube talent night, meaning that all of the contestants are NEW to the competition, and FOUR of them are getting tickets to the semi-finals! While I think it's way too late in the competition to add so many new contestants, there were still some great one-liners from the King of All Media, so let's get started!
NBC Last night the quarterfinals continued on America's Got Talent. The actual "talent" itself was very weak last night, the quotes from the King of all Media were not. Let's get started!
NBC While last week in Las Vegas didn't provide a whole lot of quotes from any of the judges, the first live show from the seventh season of America's Got Talent left no shortage of good Howard Stern quotes!
America's Got Talent Facebook And I'll even tell you who's going to advance!
Here's the incredible video that I was just talking about on the air!
NBC My understanding is this is another week with only one new episode, so soak in these new Stern quotes until the show moves to Vegas next week!
NBC Last night was easily Stern at his most quotable!
This morning Kat and Big Boy had a disagreement regarding Timothy Poe and his place on "America's Got Talent." He was the stuttering country singer who claimed to have developed his stutter when he saved one of his friends from a grenade blast in the war.
We've all been taught to never judge a book by it's cover. Unfortunately, most of us don't adhere to that age old adage. This week a contestant on America's Got Talent was proof positive that you cannot judge someones talents based on their appearance.
As the live shows for America's
Got Talent draw nearer, the King of All Media was at it again mixing it up with Sharon, Howie, and the oddities that tried out to be sent to the next round in Las Vegas. So, if you missed it, or just want to relive it, here are five quotes from Howard Stern from last night's AGT:
NBC Hey now, America's Got Talent fans... Or Howard Stern fans who can't stand AGT! I watched last night's episode from Austin, TX and, as usual, I've compiled a list of the top 5 Howard Stern quotes.

SUGAR LEMON EAU DE PARFUM is rated out of 5 by 41.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tish from Missing a piece I have been using sugar lemon parfum for a very long time. I used to buy the small size but had problems with the sprayer so I switched to the large size. I used to buy it at Sephora and decided to try the Fresh site onliine. The first two bottles came fine. Then when I re-ordered, one of the bottles arrived without the "sprayer stem". I still had an old bottle so I used the stem from that one. I purchased two bottles and there was a stem in the other one but it doesn't spray that well. Guess I have to go back to Sephora.

Sneak preview book excerpt from "You Were Not Born To Suffer" by Blake D. Bauer who will be presenting Unconditional Self Love, Qi Gong & Meditation at Hollyhock Aug 9-13, 2017.
Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames. – Jalaluddin Rumi
Wherever you are, please take a few slow, deep breaths into your
belly. Feel your whole body, from your feet all the way up to the
crown of your head, and then down to your fingertips. Please relax any tension you feel and let yourself be. Using each inhalation to open your body and create inner space, welcome everything you're thinking, feeling and experiencing here in this moment. Please be present to your body and your breath.
Before any form of external commitment can begin or remain healthy, we have to commit to being true to ourselves completely. Until we commit to ourselves – to saying our deeper feelings, values, needs and aspirations matter now – our personal and professional commitments will always result in stress, confusion, struggle or heartache, especially our intimate relationships. If you're currently having trouble committing to an intimate relationship, it's important to be kind to yourself as you navigate your next steps. You are feeling this way for a reason. No one wants to feel insecure, fearful, owned, controlled or limited in a partnership. However, it is equally important to become aware of why you feel as you do. For this reason, it's empowering to know that the main reason we struggle with commitment, whether we're starting a new relationship or questioning an existing one, is because we still have not fully committed to ourselves, which ultimately entails learning to value and be true to ourselves in all our interactions. This is a major
challenge for all of us, but it's the only road to lasting peace,
happiness and freedom – whether we're seeking lasting
true love or not.

The tunnel system at Northeastern University connects most of the core and older buildings of the university south of Huntington and east of Forsyth.
The main purpose of the tunnels is to interconnect the major administrative and traditional academic buildings for use in inclement weather. Since their construction, there has been an increase in academic space development west of Forsyth; however, the tunnel system cannot be extended underneath Forsyth due to a number of unconfirmed factors (according to Wikipedia, it is due to city regulations on construction underground city streets; traditional lore blames it on the subterranean path of the Muddy River being in the way).
As of 2006, the tunnel system connects the following buildings:

(9/30/2012) AFP reports that a Chinese passenger on board a Hong Kong Airlines flight from Bali to Hong Kong on Friday, September 28, 2012, was restrained when, halfway through the flight tried to open the airplane's door.
The 52-year-old man, identified only as Peng, reportedly thought he was opening a bathroom door when he started pulling on the emergency door handle.
Fortunately, the door failed to open as crew members rushed and dragged Peng away from the door, restraining him for the duration of the flight.
Interviewed by the police in Hong Kong, Peng said that he was on his first plane journey and has assumed the door led to a bathroom.
The man was issued a warning letter, but was not arrested.

He moves left.
I feel the light
He takes another step.
I had to smile
His face stays straight
I take a look for awhile.
His love for me is fake.
I try to keep up
He takes few more steps
I'm going nuts!
What plans in his mind did he kept?
I look for another way
What did he see?
I don't know what to say
He locked my mind so it can't be free.
My heart was tightly wrapped
He tells me that I thought too late
I was trapped
He says check-mate

Are shoebox units worthy investment products for those speculating in the property market?
iProperty.com.sg, Singapore's number one property website, today revealed staggering figures reaffirming the popularity of shoebox units among local property buyers. Shoebox units are generally defined as private apartments measuring less than 500 sq ft.
During the period of August 2010 to August 2011, transaction volume of shoebox units accounted for 7% of the total transaction volume for condominiums. On average, 197 transactions of such units were completed per month during the same period. Taking only a relatively small slice of the condominium pie, the appeal of such units remains strong even as average prices continue to climb.
Cost versus value: Are shoebox units worthy investments?
From August 2010 to August 2011, the average price per square foot (PSF) for shoebox units stands at $1,546; 42% more than $1,090 for condominium apartments measuring between 501 to 1,500 sq ft; and 25% more than $1,232 for condominium apartments measuring more than 1,500 sq ft.
Average PSF price for shoebox units in August 2011 was $1,549, which is 14% more than it was in August 2010. Across the board, PSF prices increased from August 2010 and August 2011 – up 4.9% for condominium apartments measuring between 501 to 1,500 sq ft; and up 9.9% for condominium apartments measuring more than 1,500 sq ft. The biggest increase in PSF prices came from shoebox units and seemed to signify consumer confidence in this property category.
East Coast District: The lure for shoebox units peaks
Investors of shoebox units go for District 15 as their area of choice, with 513 units transacted from August 2010 to August 2011. This means an average of 39 shoebox units were transacted per month. District 15 covers mostly private residential developments in Katong, Marine Parade, Siglap and Tanjong Rhu. The average PSF price within this period stood at $1,390.
The appeal of shoebox units in this district can be attributed to the strong lifestyle offerings in this area, such as accessibility to East Coast Park and Changi Airport, favourite F&B haunts, and retail experiences.
On the other end of the spectrum, only 11 shoebox units were transacted in District 21, the lowest figure between August 2010 to August 2011 – average of only one shoebox unit transacted per month. District 21 covers the Clementi, Upper Bukit Timah and Hume Avenue area which comprises mostly private landed properties as well as HDB apartments. The average PSF price within this period stood at $1,598.
The case for small apartments – shoebox units and 3-room flats
Prices of a 3-room HDB flat remained steady at between $400 to $500 PSF, whereas prices of shoebox apartments seemed to loom above $1,000 psf – sometimes reaching close to $2,000 psf, and beyond.
"With the rising affluence of Singaporeans and new migrants, together with the increasing price of private properties, shoebox units present attractive investment opportunities for the local property investor – regardless of market uncertainties as a result of the European and US debt crises," says Shaun Di Gregorio, iProperty Group CEO.
With new shoebox units to be released in the near future, property buyers with a penchant for the rudimentary nature of such units will see an extended selection of housing options that caters to their basic needs – accompanied with a host of amenities and proximity to lifestyle options that condominiums are offering.

I have started (after about 90min of cycling) getting discomfort - a feeling of 'bruising', numbness and irritation-- on the bony bits of my backside.
I wear good quality shorts (Assos), apply chamois cream and have the same irritation on a number of my bikes with different saddles. I have lost about a stone in weight recently. Any idea what the problem may be?
Paul Nixon
Paul, this is an interesting and not uncommon problem that is not so easy to put your finger on. Where most difficulties regarding that particular contact patch with the bike tend to be in relation to abrasions, saddle sores etc, this is a problem with the sit bones.
Firstly when this, or indeed any other problem suddenly manifests itself in an area where you've perceived no previous discomfort, you're right to try to identify anything that's changed which might be causing the problem. In this case it's your weight loss, and you're clearly thinking that the related lack of 'padding' in this area might suddenly be causing you discomfort.
So the obvious thing to try first is simply putting the padding back – not by re-visiting your former, heavier self, but by trying a second pair of shorts. This might sound odd but loads of riders use 'double bagging' for all sorts of reasons.
Give it a try and it might provide a simple solution. I'm loathe to say this is definitely the cause (or the solution) however because there are plenty of whippet-thin riders out there on narrow, racing saddles, with little padding who experience no discomfort. And too much padding, either on the saddle or your clothing can lead to their own problems.
So if that doesn't provide a solution then you might need to get a bit more technical and come at it from a biomechanical angle. The sit bones (actually ischial tuberosities) are the two sticky-out bones that carry your weight when you're sitting on the saddle, so each saddle you use needs to directly support these two bones.
Too narrow or too wide and you're likely to experience discomfort. Any number of things can actually change your position slightly on the saddle, often unbeknown to you, so you need to make sure the width of the saddle is correct for the position of your sit bones. This is easily achieved by a good bike-fitting provider who has a machine specifically to measure the width of your sit bones and look at your position on the bike to ensure you're sitting correctly then recommend a saddle to suit.
While your getting that sorted, there are a few things you can do on each ride to alleviate the discomfort. Simply move around on the saddle more often than you normally would (sitting further back on the climbs for example) and stand in the pedals for 30-60 seconds every 15 minutes or so can offer respite from the normal position by regularly shifting the pressure points.

Gold leaf lettering has been a Chicago tradition since the 1860s. Nothing else communicates the timeless beauty, elegance, and quality of gold leaf. Gold changes subtly, constantly, catching light from different angles as it attracts the passersby. Gold's brilliance and reflective quality give all signage an unequaled distinction.
Chicagold is the only sign company in Chicago that specializes in historic gold leaf lettering.

Hail To The Rajah Before Ted Williams, there was Rogers Hornsby, the forgotten father of the father of hitting
Ted Williams will go down in baseball history as the greatest theorist of hitting. Asking Theodore Rex about batting was like asking Albert Einstein about quantum physics. Williams called his landmark instructional book The Science of Hitting. (You want art, go to a museum.) Just as Einstein was able to reduce his theory of relativity to a single equation, Williams, the best hitter of all time, was able to distill his theory of hitting to a single sentence: Get a good pitch to hit.
He borrowed it from another guy.
Before there was Williams, there was Rogers Hornsby, the best righthanded hitter of all time. Before Teddy Ballgame arrived on the scene in 1939, Hornsby was arguably the best all-around hitter baseball had seen. He hit for power and average, season after season, for more than 20 years, beginning in 1915. On those rare occasions when he struck out, his annoyance was deep.
Many of the good hitters in the game today—men like Mike Piazza and Nomar Garciaparra and Shawn Green, who hit for average and power—pay homage to Williams. They've studied him. In the discipline they bring to every at bat, they are daily reminders of Williams. Piazza's confidence is rooted in praise that Williams paid him when Piazza was still in high school. Garciaparra has sat at Williams's elbow for long off-season chats, two hitters talking shop. When Green was at the 1999 All-Star Game at Fenway Park, he carefully positioned himself in the runway so he could meet his hitting hero.
But who today pays his respects to Hornsby, the Splinter's hitting forebear, the Newton to his Einstein? Who talks about the father of the father of modern hitting? Only old-timers.
Bob Feller's first two years as a big league pitcher, 1936 and '37, were Hornsby's final two as a player. Feller facedHornsby and later pitched against a club managed by him. "In '37 Hornsby was 41 years old and still the best hitter on the St. Louis Browns," says Feller. An 83-year-old Hall of Famer now, Feller was a teenager off an Iowa farm when he pitched to Hornsby. His memory is astonishing: "He used a bat with a big barrel, like Ruth's, a medium-sized handle and no knob. He was very difficult to strike out. He had his theories about hitting. He didn't try to pull the ball; he hit everything right through the box. He wasn't the talker Ted was, but then again a lot of what Ted said was horsefeathers. Hornsby didn't need a lot of words."
The Rajah played 23 seasons, beginning with the St. Louis Cardinals and going on to the New York Giants, Boston Braves, Chicago Cubs and the Browns. As a second baseman, he was skillful at turning double plays but weak chasing pops in shallow center and right. He stole few bases. At the plate he had no limitations. In his hitting swan song, as the Browns' player-manager in 1937, Hornsby sent himself to the plate only 56 times, chiefly to bat for somebody less able. He hit .321. For his career he averaged .358—the second best of all time, behind the much less powerful Ty Cobb—cranked out 301 home runs and struck out only 679 times in 8,173 at bats. ( Sammy Sosa, for example, had whiffed 663 times in only 2,449 at bats from 1998 through 2001.)
In 1922 Hornsby batted .401, hit 42 homers and struck out a mere 50 times. He practically duplicated that season in '25, with a .403 average, 39 home runs and 39 strikeouts. He won the batting title seven times in the Roaring '20s, reaching his highest average (and the highest of anyone after 1900), .424, in '24. Williams was a much more productive home run hitter than Hornsby—Williams homered once in every 15 at bats, Hornsby once in 27—but in almost every other regard Hornsby was Williams's equal or better.
In 1938, during the first spring after his final season as a player, Hornsby, a prickly man and a compulsive gambler, took the only job he was offered, as spring training batting coach for the Minneapolis Millers, a Double A team that trained in Daytona Beach. Williams was a 19-year-old boy wonder on that team. From that March on,Williams has been generous in his praise of Hornsby. "I've always felt Rogers Hornsby was the greatest hitter for average and power in the history of baseball," Williams wrote in his book My Thru at Bat. "I liked Hornsby because he talked to me, a kid of nineteen, and boy I picked his brains for everything I could."
Williams batted .366 with 43 home runs for Minneapolis. The next season he was with the Boston Red Sox, and he said, "Something Rogers Hornsby had told me in Florida the year before was fast becoming a cardinal rule for me: Get a good ball to hit?

6. Blogs + Google Ads
Not long ago, if you wanted to be a publisher, you had to either be born into a rich family or become an HTML geek. Now, thanks to simple tools such as Blogger, TypePad, and WordPress, anyone can be a publisher or producer, no technical expertise (or talent) required. "Explosive" doesn't even begin to describe the growth of blogs, which surged from about 100,000 in 2002 to more than 70 million last year, according to Technorati.
The problem? At first, blogging wouldn't pay your bandwidth bills, let alone the rent. Enter Google AdSense: Introduced in 2002, this program makes adding pay-per-click ads to any site a snap. Google's search engine, meanwhile, offers a self-perpetuating marketing vehicle; the more sites that link to your blog, the higher it rises in Google search results, leading to more traffic, more clicks, more links, and so on. The top 50,000 blogs pulled in $500 million in ad revenue in 2006 [PDF], according to a study by the University of Texas and blog-ad firm Chitika. Spread across all the sites in the survey, that amount is hardly a vast fortune, but it's a promising start. (Don't quit your day job--yet.) Overall, in 2007 Google shared more than $5 billion in ad revenues with its partner sites, including traditional Web publishers and blogs.
Unfortunately, with disruption comes drawbacks. Roughly one out of four blogs are bot-created spam blogs (or "splogs"), according to WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg. Click fraud generates bogus income for scammers, spyware infects users' PCs in order to drive them toward splogs, and search-engine-optimization consultants try to manipulate Google's PageRank algorithm to their own ends, skewing the results.
Disruption: Blogs give everyone a public voice, while Google gives bloggers a way to fund and market themselves--and the economy of the 21st century is born.

Gingrich's Ideas Collapse Under Weight of Logic: Ramesh PonnuruRamesh Ponnuru
Jan. 24 (Bloomberg) -- Even Newt Gingrich's toughest critics concede that the former speaker of the House, now enjoying his second comeback in the Republican presidential race, is a font of ideas.
Republican voters who listen to him hear proposals they have never heard before: bold, exciting proposals, made with complete confidence in their workability. His originality is a big part of his appeal. But even his fans concede that not all of his ideas are good.
Everyone has good and bad ideas, of course. Getting them all tangled up with each other is one of the chief characteristics of Gingrich's intellectual style.
Take Social Security. Gingrich correctly labels as a "fantasy" the notion that it can "survive without any structural reforms." He advocates allowing people to invest some of the funds they currently submit to Social Security in "personal accounts." Under the right circumstances, personal accounts can be a useful way of setting aside money today for future retirements -- something the government has not been good at -- and of democratizing capital ownership.
The Gingrich Twist
But then comes the Gingrich twist: His plan guarantees that if people's investments fail, they will still get all the benefits that current law promises them. How can the government save money while giving everyone their promised benefits and making up unlucky or incompetent investors' shortfalls? It can't. And won't those shortfalls be larger if people know they can't lose?
Plenty of Social Security plans involve the government saving money in the long term by taking a hit in the present. Gingrich has managed to devise a plan that actually increases the program's long-term cost. The price tag for Gingrich's originality, based on estimates of similar proposals in years past, would be several trillion dollars. The plan simply assumes that spending on the rest of the budget will be cut so dramatically, and the increased national saving will so boost economic growth and thus tax revenue, that we will be able to afford a much-larger Social Security program.
On immigration, too, Gingrich starts with a set of sensible premises. We need to be able to enforce our immigration laws, but "the American people are not heartless" and will not deport illegal immigrants who have spent years putting down roots here. Gingrich puts forward two distinctive solutions. One is a temporary work program proposed by the Vernon K. Krieble Foundation to satisfy businesses' demand for labor. But there's a problem with temporary work programs: What if their participants have kids while they are here?
Current law treats those children as citizens. To enforce the time limit on the program, the government has three options: tear apart families; eject citizens; or change the law to strip those kids of citizenship. The foundation picks Option 3. Gingrich is silent about which he would pick, or how he would do any of this without heartlessness.
Gingrich's second immigration idea is to establish local community boards to decide which illegal immigrants should stay and which should go. His website says Congress must set "understandable, clear, objective legal standards that will be applied equally." If some boards decide to offer sanctuary to everyone and others are tough, or if some boards practice blatant discrimination, will there be another layer of bureaucracy to review their decisions? Who is going to perform the millions of background checks that Gingrich says must be done before the boards review applications? To describe how unserious this proposal is requires using Gingrich's favorite adverbs: truly, profoundly, fundamentally.
On Judicial Power
Consider, finally, Gingrich's much-discussed desire to weaken the federal courts. The view that the courts have much more power than they used to have, and that this change is mostly unfortunate, is a respectable one. The view that Congress and the president should respond on occasion by limiting the courts' jurisdiction, as Gingrich wants, ought to be respectable, too.
But Gingrich cannot, of course, stop there. He also has to call for Congress to summon judges to explain their decisions, which would be both pointless (they already write opinions), and wrong (congressmen have no constitutional power to hector judges). And he wants to abolish liberal circuit courts and replace them with conservative ones, which is an obvious attempt to ignore the Constitution's grant of life tenure to judges.
Anyone who proposes that judicial power should be checked arouses the suspicion that what he really wants is freedom from the constraints of the law. Gingrich's solution to this problem is to confirm the charge instantaneously.
Gingrich has more original ideas than most of us. But for a president, what's much more important is the ability to tell the good ones from the bad -- an ability called judgment.

Renee Maritz
A Fairytale - Poem by Renee Maritz
Once upon a time somewhere…
There lived a king who had no heir.
Without someone to take the throne
his kingdom would be lost & so his home.
He dreamed of a beauty that he could not yet see,
because he knew the witch would not let it be
She'd cursed his heart so it could not be found,
Thus keeping his soul forever – spirit bound.
He knew he shouldn't, but he was losing faith,
then she came – his true love – O, so brave.
She freed his heart and broke the spell.
In doing so the evil witch was sent to hell.
A few months later they got a son,
who grew up strong and became the chosen one
He lead his people for many years,
with wisdom and goodness he killed their fears.
The land was healed and blessed with love,
a powerful gift sent from above.
In heaven the angels sang with laughter
& then they all lived happily ever after.

Everybody loves bacon
These succulent strips of Gummy Bacon are so realistic you'll want to fry some up and serve them with an egg and a side of hash browns. But please don't. Gummy Bacon should only be savored raw.Added 8 Years Ago from Perpetualkid
It's a bacon bonanza! Sixty bacon flavored jelly beans come in each 6" x 1" x 1" bacon shaped tin. Not quite as tasty as real bacon, but much better for your arteries!Added 8 Years Ago from Perpetualkid
These clearly wouldn't help my obsession with bacon. But maybe instead of eating blt's everyday I could just chew these gumballs?
How did I not know about this? This combines the two greatest foods, chocolate and bacon... Someone try it and let me know if it is as great as it sounds.

"Holiday Hoops for Hope" Community Event to Benefit Paralympic Sport Metrolina
BP and BP Distributor, Mark Oil Company, to Present $20,000 Donation to Benefit Charlotte Youth and Adults with Physical and Visual Disabilities
Nov 10, 2011, 09:00 ET from BP
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- To fuel the spirit of BP's sponsorship of the 2012 U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams, Charlotte-based BP Distributor, Mark Oil Company, is teaming up with Paralympic Sport Metrolina to help raise awareness of the benefits of recreational and competitive sports for youth and adults with physical and visual disabilities.
Holiday Hoops for Hope is a free event, open to the public, and will take place on Friday, November 18 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Founders Hall. The event will provide an opportunity for area residents to learn how children and adults with disabilities overcome physical challenges through participation in recreational and competitive sports programs at Paralympic Sport Metrolina, a program of Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation. Club members will be available to teach attendees about the unique skills it takes to perform various sports as an athlete with disabilities. Demonstrations will include wheelchair basketball, boccia, tandem cycling and hand-cycling.
Event attendees can contribute to Paralympic Sport Metrolina during the event by shooting hoops that will in turn earn the club BP gasoline to help cover travel costs. For every basket made, $1, $5 or $100 in BP gasoline (to the value of $1,000 of BP gasoline) will be donated to the Paralympic Sport Metrolina's traveling teams. The recreational and competitive traveling teams are a valuable part of the club's programming as it provides the opportunity for local athletes to travel for competition.
Local triathlete and 2012 Paralympic Hopeful, Cadie Jessup, will be at the event to share her story and help Charlotte residents understand how these club members embody the ability in disability and lead healthy and active lifestyles.
"We want to raise awareness of the benefits Paralympic Sport Metrolina offers adults and children with physical and visual disabilities," said Karla Gray of Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation. "We are excited to give the residents of Charlotte the opportunity to try a selection of Paralympic sports themselves and begin to understand how our athletes overcome adversity every day."
Mark Oil Company, a BP Distributor that services 34 BP stations throughout Charlotte, will present a $10,000 grant donation to Paralympic Sport Metrolina at the event. The donation is made possible through the BP Fueling Communities grant program, which will help fund the sport activities available at the club, such as wheelchair basketball, tandem cycling, sled hockey and goalball. In addition, BP will make a matching donation of $10,000 worth of sled hockey equipment and tandem bikes for the members of the club.
"With BP's sponsorship of the 2012 U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Teams, we were inspired to show our support and commitment to Paralympic Sport Metrolina and help raise awareness about the opportunities available through the U.S. Paralympic Team and this truly dynamic and important community-based club," said Bill Tome, president of Mark Oil Company. "We're thrilled to give back to our fellow neighbors and support this organization that makes a positive difference in the lives of Charlotte residents."
The BP Fueling Communities program provides grants to local organizations that are nominated by BP's Branded Marketers to support the communities in which they do business. Fueling Communities helps spread charity and goodwill by giving back to local organizations that support health, education, youth, food and housing.
Charlotte-area residents can also participate in a fundraising effort for this important community program by purchasing a Paralympic Sport Metrolina bracelet for $1 at participating BP sites beginning today through January 31, 2012. All of the proceeds will go to the Paralympic Sport Metrolina.
"We are thrilled to be working with BP on this initiative and are very grateful for the Fueling Communities grant and equipment donation, which will benefit the recreational and competitive athletes our club serves," said Gray.
Schedule of Events
November 18 event at Founders Hall, 100 North Tryon Street, Charlotte, N.C.:

About Paralympic Sport Metrolina
Paralympic Sport Metrolina, a program of Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation, focuses on providing the opportunity for members of the community who have visual and physical disabilities to take part in sports and recreational opportunities. Paralympic Sport Metrolina began in late 2009 in response to the growing need for community based sports programs that would be available for community members who had a wide range of interests and various skill levels.
Since this time, Paralympic Sport Metrolina has continued its partnership and support of existing programs in the community including Wheelchair Basketball, Wheelchair Rugby, and Power Soccer and has developed new programs to meet community needs. Current sports provided directly by Paralympic Sport Metrolina include swimming, goalball, sled hockey, boccia and tandem cycling.
Increasing activity level and involvement in community life reduces medical complications and costly secondary disabilities after onset of a physical disability, involvement prevents isolation and involvement enhances a persons body image. The benefits are limitless.

Most of you have heard of the Better Business Bureau. The BBB provides the rules, regulations, and guidelines by which the majority of legitimate businesses abide by. Anybody can report a company to the BBB if they suspect unethical or dishonest practices. An investigation led by the BBB that yields unfavorable results can cause the company in question lots of money, not to mention the risk of a ruined reputation. Knowing the purpose of the Better Business Bureau, I was very curious when I came across a work at home site that was certified under a organization called the Web Trade Bureau. The website that bore this seal of approval was obviously a scam. If the Web Trade Bureau was anything like the BBB, I wondered how the organization could offer its seal of approval to such a blatant hoax. I looked up the Web Trade Bureau and got my answer. The WTB website boasts about its scam-spotting ability when it comes to making money sites. Supposedly the people running the site had researched 300 different work at home websites and only 4 or so proved to be legitimate. Those figures seemed realistic enough so I clicked on the link for one of the categories and clicked on the link for the first approved site. The site looked like classic scam material. People make mistakes. Maybe one scam slipped through their scam-spotting method. It happens. I clicked on 4 or 5 more links and the same type of sites came up. Apparently it was not a mistake. I looked up the WTB web address on whois.net and found out who owns the website. Interestingly enough, many of the scam links I clicked on are owned by the same person. I understand people posting referral links on their blogs to make an extra dollar. That is how business has worked for hundreds of years. Refer people and get benefits from that company in return. What the Web Trade Bureau did does not even resemble the referral system. Producing a Website that pretends to spot scams then gives links to misleading websites is bad enough. Creating a website like the WTB and providing the scams to go along with it goes beyond wrong. I cannot believe people still get away with this nonsense. Worst of all, I bet more and more people fall prey to this website every day. It is my job to research these kinds of things, but what about the people stumbling upon that website just looking for a break who don't know any better. That is the one downfall of the Internet. It is so much easier to get away with things like this. Imagine how many people lose money to these people before the website is finally shut down.

I am so glad you wrote your article, it came up when I googled "Web Trade Bureau scam". More garbage, but at least now I know better than to get taken in. I lost $14,000 to a scam artist company (Vianet Webzone) 3 months ago and I might lose my house. I just wish there was a way to get back at these guys and get my money back.

I just received an e-mail in my junk box offering a "Work @ Home opportunity related to processing e-mails from home and making $25.00 per e-mail processed. Well, seeing that it came in my junk folder raised the first "Red Flag" I decided to check it out anyway. I, also went to Who.is to get the information on this. I found out pretty much the same info that you mentioned in your article. Then, I did a Google search and found your article. I, Myself, among a whole lot of other honest people who are just trying to make money online for a variety of reasons from supplementing their current income to just trying to make a living online appreciate your time and effort in preventing these websites from ripping them off.
Take care.

California Department of Fish and Game (2009) ROV-based Deep Water Monitoring of the Northern Channel Islands Marine Protected Areas Annual Report - 2007. Sacramento, CA, California Department of Fish and Game, Marine Region, (Marine Region Administrative Report, 09-01)

Research cruises were conducted in August-October 2007 to complete the third annual remotely operated vehicle (ROV)-based assessments of nearshore rocky bottom finfish at ten sites in the northern Channel Islands. Annual surveys at the Channel Islands have been conducted since 2004 at four sites and were expanded to ten sites in 2005 to monitor potential marine protected area (MPA)effects on baseline fish density. Six of the ten sites are in MPAs and four in nearby fished reference areas. In 2007 the amount of soft-only substrate on the 141 track lines surveyed was again estimated in real-time in order to target rocky bottom habitat. These real-time estimates of hard and mixed substrate for all ten sites averaged 57%, 1% more than the post-processed average of 56%. Surveys generated 69.9 km of usable video for use in finfish density calculations, with target rocky bottom habitat accounting for 56% (39.1 km) for all sites combined. The amount of rocky habitat sampled by site averaged 3.8 km and ranged from 3.3 km sampled at South Point, a State Marine Reserve (SMR) off Santa Rosa Island, to 4.7 km at Anacapa Island SMR. A sampling goal of 75 transects at all 10 sites was met using real-time habitat estimates combined with precautionary over-sampling by 10%. A total of seventy kilometers of sampling is projected to produce at least seventy-five 100 m2 transects per site. Thirteen of 26 finfish taxa observed were selected for quantitative evaluation over the time series based on a minimum criterion of abundance (0.05/100 m2). Ten of these 13 finfish appear to be more abundant at the state marine reserves relative to fished areas when densities were averaged across the 2005 to 2007 period. One of the species that appears to be more abundant in fished areas was señorita, a relatively small prey species that is not a commercial or recreational target. (PDF contains 83 pages.)

|Centre For Distance Education
The Centre for Distance Education is an integral part of the University and an expression of the University\'s concern and commitment for spread of education in all strata of society and all parts of the country. An interesting observation is that the desire and demand for education exists in many sections but due to the fact that Colleges and Universities cannot accommodate beyond a particular limit, many cannot find admission. There is also a large section of society which is unable to participate in the normal stream of education due to occupational, financial or social constraints. All these persons can get an opportunity to derive the benefits of education through distance education.
By taking advantage of the advances in information and communication technologies to widen the reach of education and to enhance quality of education through the use of multi-media methods of teaching and learning, the Centre aims at giving the students an opportunity to learn and appear for the examination of the course which will be conducted by the University.

Actor turned director Geethu Mohandas is not very happy with the surge of so-called 'modern themes' in Malayalam cinema. Geethu is of the opinion that the new age films are rather mediocre.
Geethu Mohandas, who has many Malayalam films in her kitty is extremely disappointed with the current wave of modern cinema in Mollywood and says that these films don't entertain her. Speaking to a website, Geethu Mohandas said that all her friends seem to enjoy these movies, whereas she is the only person who can't seem to relate to the new age themes in Malayalam cinema.
According to Geethu Mohandas, there is not a single true filmmaker today as all movies are filled with gimmicks. Geethu, like thousands of other Malayalis, feel that films made in the 70s and 80s are what that can be termed as good cinema.
Meanwhile, Geethu has completed shooting for her second film, Liar's Dice. Well, Geethu definitely has a point. Anyway, let's see what Geethu has to offer the audience!
