How to write:
Start off as soon as you can. If you receive a gift prior to the wedding it is perfectly acceptable to send the thank you note out as soon as you receive the gift.
You should try to get all of the thank yous out within a month of returning home from your honeymoon.
You want to write about the gift. They want to know that you know what they got you! You don't have to pour your heart out and write everyone a letter, but a few sentences on the lovely vase is good.
Be careful with monetary gifts, don't just say "thanks for the cash!" Let them know what you plan to do with it. i.e. adding on a breakfast nook.
Cash Example:
Dear Grandpa and Grandma Kleinfeld,
Thank you very much for your gift. We are looking forward to making some renovations to our home. Thanks to your generous gift we can start looking at paint chips sooner than we thought!
All our love Matthew and Elaine
Gift Example
Dear John and Stacy,
Thank you so much for the stand mixer. Now, Matthew and I can be the entertainers of the group! We are looking forward to your next visit where we can whip up some fabulous treats for you two!
All our love Matthew and Elaine

The reference of bills to the committees may be achieved by one of several methods. Bills may be referred by ordinary resolution following the giving of a notice in the manner described above for general inquiries. An amendment may be moved to the motion that a particular bill be read a second time to refer the bill to a committee as an alternative to giving it a second reading or in consequence of it being given a second reading (SO 114(3)). Immediately after a bill has been read a second time, a motion may be moved without notice referring the bill to a committee (SO 115(2)). The most common method is for a bill to be referred to a committee as a consequence of the adoption of a report by the Selection of Bills Committee (SO 24A). This committee, comprising the whips of the major and minority parties and four other senators, meets weekly when the Senate is sitting to consider which bills introduced into the Senate or due for introduction should be referred to committees for inquiry and report. The committee decides which bills should be referred, to which committee, at what stage and on what date the committee should present its report.
This system for the referral of bills leaves it open to individual committees to determine their own procedures. Committees are able to determine the most appropriate method of dealing with particular bills. The most common approach adopted by committees is for evidence to be sought from as wide a range of witnesses as practicable in the time available, including by written submission and by oral evidence at public hearings. Although most legislation inquiries occur in Canberra, some committees travel to obtain evidence. Committees may consider in detail or in principle amendments to bills that have been circulated or foreshadowed and make recommendations to the Senate accordingly. Alternatively, it may not be until all the evidence has been gathered that unintended consequences or unforseen problems with a bill emerge. A committee may recommend that particular amendments be agreed to but the bill itself may be amended only by the Senate. (See also Chapter 12, Legislation.)

Topic Last Modified: 2017-03-28
Retrieves information about the personal identification number (PIN) assigned to a user. This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.
Get-CsClientPinInfo -Identity <UserIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]
Example 1 returns PIN information for all the users who have been enabled for Skype for Business Server 2015. To do this, the command first calls the Get-CsUser cmdlet to return all users who have been enabled for Skype for Business Server 2015. That collection is piped to the Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet, which displays PIN information for each user in the collection.
Get-CsUser | Get-CsClientPinInfo
In Example 2, the Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet is used to display PIN information for a single user: the user with the Identity litwareinc\kenmyer.
Get-CsClientPinInfo -Identity "litwareinc\kenmyer"
Example 3 returns PIN information for all the users with accounts in the Finance organizational unit (OU). To do this, the Get-CsUser cmdlet and the OU parameter are used to return a collection of all the users in the Finance OU. That collection is then piped to the Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet, which displays PIN information for each user in the collection.
Get-CsUser -OU "OU=Finance,DC=litwareinc,DC=com" | Get-CsClientPinInfo
The command shown in Example 4 displays PIN information for all the Managers in the organization. To retrieve a collection of all the Managers, the command uses the Get-CsUser cmdlet and the LdapFilter parameter; the filter value "Title=Manager" limits the returned collection to users who have "Manager" as their job title. The Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet is then used to display PIN information for each of these users.
Get-CsUser -LdapFilter "Title=Manager" | Get-CsClientPinInfo
Skype for Business Server 2015 enables users to connect to the system or to join public switched telephone network (PSTN) conferences by using a telephone. Typically, logging on to the system or joining a conference requires the user to enter a user name or password. However, entering a user name and password can be an issue if you are using a phone that does not have an alphanumeric keypad. Because of that, Skype for Business Server 2015 enables you to supply users with numeric-only PINs; when prompted, users can then log on to the system or join a conference by entering the PIN instead of a user name and password.
Administrators can retrieve the PIN settings for a user, or a group of users, by running the Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet. Note that there is no way for an administrator to retrieve the PIN that has been assigned to a user. If a user forgets his or her PIN, that user will not be able to use PIN authentication to access the system until an administrator has assigned them a new PIN or the user has obtained a new PIN from the Dial-In Conferencing webpage.
Note that, by default, the firewall exceptions for SQL Server Express are not enabled when you install the Standard Edition of Skype for Business Server 2015. That means that you will not be able to run the Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet from a remote instance of Windows PowerShell; that's because your command will not be able to traverse the firewall and access the SQL Server Express database. (However, you can still run the cmdlet locally on Standard Edition server.) To run the Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet remotely against a Standard Edition server you will need to manually enable the firewall exceptions for SQL Server Express.
Indicates the Identity of the user account for which the PIN should be locked. User Identities can be specified by using one of four formats: 1) the user's SIP address; 2) the user's user principal name (UPN); 3) the user's domain name and logon name, in the form domain\logon (for example, litwareinc\kenmyer); and, 4) the user's Active Directory display name (for example, Ken Myer). You can also reference a user account by using the user's Active Directory distinguished name.
You can use the asterisk (*) wildcard character when using the Display Name as the user Identity. For example, the Identity "* Smith" returns all the users who have a display name that ends with the string value " Smith".
Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command.
Describes what would happen if you executed the command without actually executing the command.
PARAMVALUE: $true | $false
String value or Microsoft.Rtc.Management.ADConnect.Schema.ADUser object. The Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet accepts pipelined input of string values representing the Identity of a user account. The cmdlet also accepts pipelined input of user objects.
The Get-CsClientPinInfo cmdlet returns one or more instances of the Microsoft.Rtc.Management.UserPinService.PinInfoDetails object.

It will be when Harry met Alessandro.
Marquee men Harry Kewell and Alessandro Del Piero are set to go head to head for the first time when Sydney FC host Melbourne Heart at Allianz Stadium on Sunday.
Three times before, injuries have kept Kewell out of such a showdown.
First when Juventus played Liverpool in the quarter-finals of the 2005 UEFA Champions League, then a year later when Italy knocked Australia out of the World Cup in Germany and most recently when the Heart lost to Sydney in round six of the A-League last month.
But the stars look to have finally aligned as the wounded veterans are likely to start.
Del Piero, 39, is back after missing last week's loss to Central Coast with a hamstring strain, while Kewell made his long-awaited comeback from injury in the Heart's draw with Western Sydney last week, coming on as a late substitute.
Heart coach John Aloisi has confirmed 35-year-old Kewell will play more than the 18 minutes he managed against the Wanderers, and, earlier, Del Piero said he was confident he would be fit to play.
Sky Blues midfielder and former Heart player Matthew Thompson says to witness the first clash between the veteran duo will be huge.
''It will be massive,'' he said on Saturday.
''To see all the fans come out to watch Alessandro, it's so great for this club because he's a legend of the game and they'll also get to see him take on arguably Australia's best in Harry. So to have those two players out there will be amazing.''
The last-placed Heart come into the clash still searching for their maiden win this season but are rejuvenated after backing up their dramatic 3-3 draw against Adelaide with an impressive 1-1 result against the Wanderers.
Sydney's club record four-game winning streak came to an end with a 1-0 loss to defending champions the Mariners last week.
Thompson says they've been fine-tuning their game plan and have no intention of handing the Heart their first victory.
''With Heart still not winning any games you definitely don't want to be the team they break that streak against,'' he said.
''We were disappointing last week … the basics went wrong. Literally just passing the ball was all over the place. We've been limiting all those mistakes, which is what gave us four wins on the trot, but last week they just all came out in the one game.
''But we're fixing that this week and we'll definitely be on our game.''
Meanwhile, Perth Glory coach Alistair Edwards failed to front his mandatory post-match news conference after a lacklustre 2-0 loss to Melbourne Victory, sparking suggestions of a team blow-up.
At the final whistle on Friday night, Glory veterans Jacob Burns and Michael Thwaite were visibly distressed and Edwards kept his men in the change room for a long team meeting. The no-show brought more attention to the Glory's poor performance, only testing Victory keeper Nathan Coe a handful of times as Victory eased to the win.
Edwards opted not to bring captain Burns off the bench, making only two substitutions for the night.
Burns, returning from a two-game suspension, had no known injury concerns and seemed ideally suited to Perth's tactics of flooding and shutting down the Victory midfield.
The FFA match commissioner confirmed about an hour after full-time that Edwards did not intend to meet his media obligations after the away loss.
Victorious coach Kevin Muscat was satisfied with the three points, and the form of chief creator Mitch Nichols in particular.
Nichols assisted the first goal and sparked the second with a glorious back-heel that found Gui Finkler, who dribbled past two before James Troisi's short pass set up a one-on-one chance Finkler buried.

Common Questions about Gravity PDF
How much does Gravity PDF cost?
The software itself is completely FREE and can be downloaded from WordPress.org. However it does require you have the latest version of Gravity Forms installed (Gravity Forms is a premium WordPress plugin with prices starting from $39USD).
Which Gravity Forms license do I need?
Gravity PDF works with any Gravity Forms license and supports all official Gravity Forms add-ons. If you can afford it, the "Developers" license gives you full access to all Gravity Form add-ons and priority support. It's a great investment.
Who develops and maintains the plugin?
Gravity PDF is built, maintained and supported by Blue Liquid Designs – a small Australian-based business that has been working with WordPress and Gravity Forms for over five years.
What kind of support do you offer?
We offer free general help and support for Gravity PDF via email. Users who take advantage of our PDF design services get premium support via email and phone.
What are the hosting / software requirements?
We support the current and previous major release of both WordPress and Gravity Forms (but we recommend using the latest stable versions). You'll also need to be running PHP 5.4 or higher (we recommend PHP7.0+) and have at least 64MB of WP Memory (128MB+ recommended). There are a few specific PHP modules that are also required, but they're usually on by default.
What relationship exists between Gravity PDF and Gravity Forms?
In short, there is none. While Gravity Forms and Gravity PDF work together seamlessly they are maintained by two completely separate and independent companies. Gravity PDF is a third-party add-on for Gravity Forms and because of this the Gravity Forms team will NOT provide support for Gravity PDF (you'll need to get in touch with our friendly support staff).
The software is free. How do you make money?
We offer custom PDF integration services which generates our income and allows us to continue developing the free version of Gravity PDF. In the near future we'll also sell premium PDF templates and add-ons. This will create a sustainable business model and allow Gravity PDF to flourish long into the future.
Is Gravity PDF compatible with third party add-ons like Gravity View and Gravity Flow?
The software may work, but we don't currently test third-party add-ons. In future we are planning to create strong integrations with the most popular third party plugins like Gravity View and Gravity Flow.
Can I auto-fill existing PDF documents with your plugin?
This isn't possible with the free version. However, we offer comprehensive integration services that can auto-fill existing PDF documents.
Can I generate multiple PDFs from the same Gravity Form?
Yes. You can configure as many PDFs as you want. Each form entry will then be able to download all your configured PDFs.
Can I generate a PDF that includes all form entries?
No. Gravity PDF has a one-to-many relationship which only allows PDFs to be generated from individual form entries.
Will Gravity PDF work on sites hosted on WordPress.com?
No. You'll need a self-hosted WordPress installation to use Gravity PDF.
How hard is it to create custom PDF templates?
While we have extensive how-to guides showing you how to get started, you'll still need to be familiar with HTML, CSS and have a little bit of PHP knowledge to create your own PDF templates.
If I don't have the knowledge to create my own templates will you do it for me?
Sure. Get in touch with our friendly staff, let us know your requirements and we'll give you a quote to complete the work.


text: Robert D. Hansen, Founder, CEO, and Chairman of the Board of Electromed, Inc., today announced his retirement after twenty years. In May of 1992, Hansen and his brother Craig Hansen first began work on the SmartVest ® Airway Clearance System, an innovative High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) device in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Their first United States product sale occurred in 2001, with the first international sale in 2006, followed by initial sales in Asia in 2008. Hansen has led the company through successive generations of the product. By June 30, 2011, the Company had grown to over $19 million in sales and was employing more than 90 employees across the United States. The Company also engages on a contract services basis more than 300 certified Respiratory Therapists and Nurses who educate patients on the use of the SmartVest ®. From FY2006 to FY2011, the Company achieved a compound annual growth rate of 27%. It has maintained profitable operations over the last six years. The Company was one of only two businesses in Minnesota that succeeded in completing an initial public offering in 2010. Electromed is currently traded on the NYSE Amex under the ticker symbol ELMD. Hansen stated, "I am confident that my successor, the management team, staff, and emerging technologies will serve the Company's patients and shareholders well. The Company's strong balance sheet should also serve as an excellent foundation for future growth." Hansen indicated that he will soon be directing his energy and talent toward another technology based company, of which he is a founder. The Board of Directors announced that James J. Cassidy, Ph.D., has been appointed interim CEO. Cassidy joined the Company as Chief Operating Officer in 2011. He has more than twenty years of international management experience in the medical device industry. Dr. Cassidy said, "Under Bob's leadership, Electromed has grown from concept, through market introduction, into the innovative leader in airway clearance therapy. He has laid the foundation for continued growth of the business. I am grateful for the trust placed in me by the Board and look forward to working with our managers and employees to carry on this tradition of success. I join our Board members in wishing Bob every success in his next venture."

Praise Banners
100% Silk Hand-Dyed
No fabric fully compares to silk for use in flags. Silk is known as the Queen of Fibers. It is a natural fiber whose life process has been noted to represent Christ's redemptive act - the silkworm must die for the fabric to be born. Silk has a unique soft, rippling flow and rich sheen. The dyeing method is a two-day process. Eight-foot telescoping rods are used with these flags. Hand washable.
100% Silk Solid Color
This is the same basic fabric as Hand-dyed Silk; but it is one color overall without variation. Silk comes in measurements of weights called mommes(mm). The best weights for worship flags are 5mm and 8mm, sometimes 10mm, the higher number being the heavier weight. These Solid Silk fabrics are all 8mm, a good weight for large flags. Hand washable.
100% Silk Hand-Painted
All of our hand painted praise banners are designed and created by our friends at Waves of Glory Flags, owner Michele Vela.

It was experience vs. youth this weekend as both the Eastern and Western Conference Finals took to the court for the pivotal game 3. Both series were tied 1-1 and when the dust settled, both winners would have two things in common, experience and a dominating defensive performance.
The first game to tip off this weekend was the Dallas Mavericks-Oklahoma City Thunder game and from the get-go, you could tell the Mavs were on a mission to reclaim home court. They open up the game outscoring the young Thunder 27-12 in the first quarter and went on to hold a 52-36 lead at half. From there it was simply a matter of holding on and doing just enough to get the win, which they did by a 93-87 final.
"In a game like this in someone else's arena, coming off a loss, you have to come out with anger and an intensity," Mavs Jason Terry said. "We did that."
One plus for the Thunder in the game, however, was that they finally got to Dirk Nowitzki and rattled him a bit. Nowitzki missed 10 of his first 14 shots and went on to have a pedestrian, for him, 18 points on 7 for 21 shooting. Dirk was able to do what he does best in the fourth though as he hit a few clutch jumpers to keep the rallying Thunder from getting to close.
"He's our guy. In the fourth quarters, he's going to touch the ball as frequently as we can get it to him," Mavs coach Rick Carlisle said. "If he misses a few shots, he's not going to get deterred, he's not going to get discouraged. He's got the kind of will, he's going to keep going at it."
In Miami Sunday night, the tale was much the same as defense was the name of the game for both teams for three quarters.
Fans knew they were in for a slobber-knocker between the Bulls and the Heat when both teams combined for 32 points in the first quarter. They would then go on to play even basketball through the next two quarters, both scoring 25 in the second and third, before the Heat ratcheted up the intensity in the final stanza, out dueling their younger counterparts 28-20 to win 96-85 and take the important 2-1 series lead.
"There is absolutely nothing easy in this series," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "It's still all about enduring, sustaining and finding a way to grind it out."
The key to Miami's win, other than Chris Bosh erupting for 34 points, was their ability to neutralize the leagues current MVP, the Bulls Derrick Rose, for most of the game. They threw double teams at him every chance they got, even to the extent that both Chris Bosh and LeBron James were both on him at times, and the young point guard had no answer for what was being done to him.
Of course, it doesn't help that the Bulls were consistently running pick and rolls for Rose, allowing the Heat to easily set a double team since the second player was already there. The better thing to do would have been to clear out the front court and let Rose go one on one with Mike Bibby, and if the Heat sent out a second defender, he could get it to the open man. Any way you look at it, however, this was not the kind of night Rose expected, or wanted, to have.
"It's definitely frustrating," Rose said. "Our will wasn't there tonight. They still found a way to win."

On the Importance of Light, Air and Connectivity Above the Street Level
Too often, Howard Blackson hears that "if we just get the ground floor right" then all will be fine. While obviously a good start, and one that addresses the most immediate of pedestrian interests, Blackson argues that this line of thinking ultimately allows, even incentivizes, buildings poorly designed above the first floor, thereby marginalizing the complete urban experience.
Referencing his hometown of San Diego, Blackson stresses that:
The interior of the block is not throw-away space. It's another vital realm where urbanism occurs and, traditionally, has contained spaces where people live, play, work and relax. While we may never achieve a New Orleans' mid-block courtyard pattern, our regulations should foster a greater diversity of building types - not just towers and full-block buildings, but also the more organic perimeter or liner block buildings with courts and stepbacks interior to the block.
Thanks to Scott Doyon

Price talks for magazine paper yield first fruits in France
In May and June, magazine paper producers launched a fresh attempt to charge more for all deliveries as of 1 July. SC paper is thought to have the best chances of costing more in the second half of the year, with a few deals apparently already done and dusted.
Price talks on the publication paper market in France have intensified towards the end of June, resulting in first deals. Magazine paper manufacturers entered talks with the goal of charging up to €40 more for deliveries from 1 July, depending on the customer and previous price.
It already seems clear that producers will not succeed in fully implementing their asking prices. However, transactions featuring higher SC paper prices have apparently already been inked. Manufacturers' capacity-cutting projects had paved the way for price hikes, insiders said, adding that significant amounts of SC capacity had been removed from the market.
LWC manufacturers feel that additional closures are needed to bring balance back to the market. This state of affairs is also reflected in the outcome to price talks, which resulted in minimal if any price increases. Quite a few market players were sceptical about possible price hikes for LWC deliveries in the third quarter and felt that manufacturers could consider themselves lucky if they managed to keep prices unchanged until the year's end.
This article is an excerpt from EUWID's monthly report on the paper and board markets in France. The EUWID Price Watch France for June was published in EUWID Pulp and Paper no. 27 on 3 July.

The twisted story of Julia Stiles and Jonny Lee Miller's characters has sent the show another great-rating season.
And the killings continue. Serial killer drama "Dexter" is set to return for the sixth season and Showtime is getting ready to make a formal announcement in a week or so, THR reported.
In its fifth season, "Dexter" continues to deliver the good numbers needed for a renewal. It steadily absorbs above 1.6 million viewers and recently hit its season high with 2.5 million viewers. The latest number is up 43% from the fifth season premiere.
Although Showtime seems pleased with the rating and once ordered double seasons at the same time, the network is not pulling the same card this time. One season renewal is more likely because some of the key players' contract are up.
It is expected that the season finale in two weeks time would pull a new viewership record. After all, executive producer Sara Colleton has promised that the fifth season finale is going to be "big". She hinted, "[It will ask the question,] 'Wouldn't it be nice if you could escape from your life?'" adding, "When you see the episode, you'll realize what a great title it is."
Showrunner Chip Johannesson also talked about what lies ahead, saying "Season six would definitely not look like it did this year because the events are all different."

Corbat Acts to Right-size Citi
Citigroup announced a series of moves meant to lower its annual expenses by $900 million in 2013, with total expense savings increasing to $1.1 billion in 2014. The company expects its annual revenue to decline by only $300 million as a result of the closure of 84 branch offices, including 44 in the United States, as offices in Brazil, Hong Kong, Hungary, and South Korea. The company said it would trim its work force by 11,000, including 6,200 in its Global Consumer Banking segment, 1,900 in the Institutional Clients Group, 2,300 Operations & Technology positions, outside those included in the GCB and ICG cuts, and 350 layoffs in Citi Holdings. Citi Holdings is the company's subsidiary holding noncore assets that are running off, as part of former CEO Vikram Pandit's "good bank/bad bank" strategy. Current CEO Michael Corbat ran Citi holdings for a time under Pandit's leadership, before becoming the company's CEO for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, before replacing Pandit as Citigroup CEO in October. Credit Agricole analyst Mike Mayo -- who has often been a critic of Citigroup over the past several years -- said in a report after Citi's announcement that "the new CEO took a serious playbook off the shelf and started with moves in his old region of EMEA (three of five exit countries)." Mayo said that "the moves today create a tone that the new CEO will not take half measures," but that his firm was viewing Citigroup's expense cuts "as an initial 'tremor' and that an 'earthquake' or more radical restructuring is needed before the April 16th annual meeting to satisfy activists." The analyst rates Citigroup "Outperform," with a 12-month price target of $43.00. Citigroup's shares have now returned 39% year-to-date, following a 44% decline during 2011. The shares trade for 0.7 times their reported Sept. 30 tangible book value of $52.70, and for eight times the consensus 2013 EPS estimate of $4.64, among analysts polled by Thomson Reuters. The consensus 2014 EPS estimate is $5.03.

Johannesburg – With his pink, white and brown dyed hair resembling an advertisement for Neapolitan ice cream, South Africa's Hekkie Budler retained his IBO strawweight title with a sweet, clear-cut points win over the Philippines' Renan Trongco at Emperors Palace on Saturday night.
The judges gave the decision to Budler by runaway margins of 117-111, 117-111 and 118-110 respectively against a gallant Trongco, but the Filipino is ranked no more than number five strawweight in his own country, 29th by the IBO organisation and hardly a genuine title contender.
Still, he performed as best as he could for the furious 12
rounds and made a fight of it for the entire contest - with Budler only looking in any trouble in a couple of rounds midway through the contest when he became reckless and lost his composure.
The gruelling, evenly-contested lightweight contest between South Africa's Thompson Mokwana and Argentina's Matias Gomez highlighted what was otherwise a largely mundane supporting programme in which the standard of the visiting boxers left a great deal to be desired.
The South African judges were unanimous in awarding the decision in favour of Mokwana by a clear margin after eight vacillating rounds, but the previously unbeaten Gomez more than held his own and it was not surprising that his handlers claimed "we wuz robbed" after the Argentinain had raised his arms in a victory salute after the final bell.
Gomez came to South Africa with an imposing unbeaten record from his 29 fights, with 28 of them ending within the distance. But the statistics proved somewhat misleading, with the Argentinian having fought no one ranked higher than 92nd by the IBO and little evidencethat he possessed a lethal punch.
Mokwana, however, put up a valliant performance in trading punch for punch and enhanced a reputation that had faltered in recent times.
The other visiting fighters, however, either looked amateurish and over-rated or long past a retirement date.
Although bleeding profusely from cuts on his head and eyes, South African Rayno Liebenberg outclassed 47 year-old Flash Issaka from Ghana to retain his IBO Africa light heavyweight title with a bludgeoning fourth round tko victory.
Issaka, who started on what seemed rubbery legs from the outset, finished the fight outside the ring and in the arms of the tournament's surprised doctor after a flurry of Liebenberg punches sent the veteran Ghanaian tumbling through the ropes.
Issaka had likened himself before the fight to "a professor who will teach Liebenberg the finer points of the boxing art."
But four crunching knockdowns threatened to scramble his mind, with the self-proclaimed professor learning a thing or two about continuing to fight on close to the age of 50.
Ilunga Makaba annexed the IBF cruiserweight youth title while delivering, a cruel, one-sided beating on Georgian Gogita Gorgiladze until the fight was mercifully halted in the fourth round.
Gorgiladze came to South Africa with a misleading unbeaten record from his 12 fights, but he looked no more than an amateur against the dominating Makaba and raw couragein absorbing punishment was his only notable asset.
Paraguayan Javier Corrales needed to shed more than 7kg in three days to make the stipulated catchweight limit for his fight against Kevin Lerena. But even at 93kg he was too slow and ponderous in the clear-cut ponts defeat against the more nimble and incisive Lerena.– Sapa

The Femme Fatale singer gives photographers an eyeful of what she wore under her mini dress when leaving The Sanctum Soho Hotel.
Britney Spears has accidentally exposed her underwear in a recent outing. The Blonde beauty flashed pink lace panties to the papparazzi when she climbed into her car after leaving The Sanctum Soho Hotel in London.
The "I Wanna Go" singer was with her beau Jason Trawick that day. The popstar donned a tight-fitting lime green mini dress, while Jason opted for a plaid shirt and jeans. She wore a big rock, similar to the one she had when dropping by BBC Radio 1 a day earlier.
The jewel previously reignited persistent engagement rumors, but Jason quickly denied it. He told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush on Friday that he and Britney are not engaged.
Britney was in town to promote the upcoming European leg of her "Femme Fatale" tour. She's going to kick off the jaunt on September 22 at Ice Palace in Saint Petersburg, Russia with Joe Jonas opening for her in ten selected dates.

This article titled "Eight ways to solve world hunger" was written by Alex Renton, for The Observer on Saturday 8th June 2013 12.55 America/Denver
An ugly side of current scares over future food supply is wealthy, land-poor states, like those in the Gulf and South Korea, acquiring tracts of undeveloped countries to use as allotments. It is a campaigning cause of the multi-charity IF campaign against hunger. Ethiopia, Sudan, Madagascar and Cambodia have been targeted and a total area the size of Spain may already have been acquired.
Problem: Hard to police. Difficult to distinguish between genuine investment in Africa and the expropriation of land from the poor who need it to grow their food.
Chances: 3/10
Huge sums of investment fund money have flooded into the commodities markets since the financial crisis, looking for returns no longer available in equities. Automated trading systems that exploit tiny flaws in the market and encourage volatility make it impossible for traditional traders to keep prices stable and hedge against spikes.
Problem: Much discussed in the G20 and G8, an international agreement on reforming and regulating the commodities markets looks no nearer than when the problem was first identified. Banks and investors have marshalled strong arguments against interference.
Chances: 3/10
The pressure to achieve targets on reduced carbon emissions from fossil fuels has seen rich countries turning sugar, maize and other food crops into ethanol and biodiesel.
Problems: Many economists doubt how important this issue really is in food price rises. Food and fuel prices are inextricably linked, so producing biofuel may lower food prices. A proportion of food crops have always been used for energy – 100 years ago 10% of the world's grain went to feeding horses. Second-generation biofuels won't use food crops, but wood, stalks and other waste.
Chances: 1/10
Meat production is a wasteful use of the planet's limited resources – even today, 40% of grain crops are going to feed livestock and fish. It is most inefficient with intensive beef farming, where it has been shown that just 2.5% of the feed given to cattle emerges as calories for our consumption.
That is why the UN says agricultural production will have to rise 60% to feed the extra 2 billion mouths in 2050.
Problems: There is no international mechanism to regulate or alter collective human diets, and no models other than famine that have ever worked.
Chances: 0/10

Churchill Downs: Power Broker faces older horses in Friday allowance
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Power Broker will trade Grade 1 stakes company for older foes when the 3-year-old colt returns to action Friday on the first twilight program of the Churchill Downs spring meet.
As one of the leading 2-year-olds of 2012, Power Broker is sure to be a heavy favorite in the 10th of 11 Friday races, which is scheduled for 7:24 p.m. Eastern. As a maiden, the colt was good enough to win the Grade 1 FrontRunner Stakes (formerly the Norfolk) at Santa Anita, making him the 2-1 second choice in his next race, the Breeders' Cup Juvenile.
Alas, Power Broker was a so-so fifth in the Breeders' Cup, and although Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert tried to make a backdoor effort at getting the Pulpit colt to the Kentucky Derby, he just couldn't justify it when Power Broker ran a distant fifth behind Goldencents last month in the Santa Anita Derby in his first start at 3.
With that badly needed race under him, and by taking full advantage of the race conditions in place Friday – it's a first-level allowance that also allows the entry of a horse who has never won two races lifetime – Power Broker figures to use this as a stepping-stone for a return to the upper stakes ranks in the 3-year-old division.
Rosie Napravnik has the call on Power Broker, who drew the outside post in a field of eight for the 1 1/16-mile race. The colt has had three workouts over the Churchill Downs surface since traveling here with the rest of the Baffert stable for the Kentucky Derby festivities.
Clearly, the trickiest aspect of the class drop is that Power Broker is the only 3-year-old in the field. Of the opposition, the 4-year-old Suns Out Guns Out (post 3, Corey Lanerie) might be the most dangerous after being favored under similar conditions in his last start at Gulfstream Park.
Others meriting mild upset chances include Casino Dan (post 1, Shaun Bridgmohan), Tater Downs (post 2, Alan Garcia), and Wolf Whistle (post 5, Gary Stevens).
The featured race is the only allowance on a Friday card otherwise filled with maiden and claiming races. First post is 2:45 p.m.
Churchill has scheduled twilight Fridays for the duration of the meet, which runs through June 30. The track is billing the programs as "The City's Best Happy Hour" while offering various food and drink specials and live music in the expanded Plaza area adjacent to the paddock.
Three Saturdays (June 15, 22, and 29) will be evening cards with a 6 p.m. first post.


text: Culture 18 October 1999 Lord fixit Lord Goodman Brian Brivati Richard Cohen Books, 285pp, £20 ISBN 1860661564 Sign up for our weekly email * Few famous men nowadays have their reputations much improved by death and Lord, born Aby, later Abraham, and finally Arnold, Goodman is no exception. Indeed, his reputation was in fast decline before he died. The apparently omniscient, omnipotent genius who bestrode the Wilson years, looking like Buddha, advising like Solomon, a man on whom the red cap of a Wolsey or a Richelieu seemed to fit so admirably, has shrunken now to that of just another brilliantly successful lawyer. He was, as many testify, a great chairman of the Arts Council, among his multitude of roles. Equally, he would have been a great chairman of Acas. It was as a compromiser and solution-finder - more brutally, a fixer - for Harold Wilson that he flourished. He was an incomparable networker and acted for many other politicians, both in and out of the legal process, but less successfully. During the Thatcher years, his decline accelerated. When he died in 1995, he was a lonely man; the telephone by which he lived had largely ceased ringing. No one wanted his advice any more. Brian Brivati's biography - while he was alive, Goodman took care with many, including me, to ensure that other would-be biographers didn't get past first base - is sympathetic but doesn't restore Goodman's one-time stature. Instead, it exposes the contradictions. He liked being famous but disliked publicity. He had a kind word with everyone but was a snob. He outspokenly defended the freedom of the press yet contrived to prevent accurate stories about his clients being published. He despised Wilson's secretary, Lady Falkender, yet acted for her - for example, keeping out of the Daily Express a story about the father of her two children. This was beyond a solicitor's duty and incompatible with press freedom. He hated Robert Maxwell and yet - a story Brivati doesn't tell - after Maxwell's death he tried to get St Paul's Cathedral for a memorial service. He even advised Mrs Maxwell to fly the octogenarian former Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Coggan, by private plane to the funeral in Jerusalem to increase the chances of St Paul's being made available, a strange kindness for one Jew to perform for another. When I asked him, after the exposure of Maxwell's frauds, why he had done that, he replied: "Ah, but I told the family to wait for a year." Not for the first time, Goodman was acting cautiously on behalf of a client whose dishonesty he either knew or suspected. He represented Robert Boothby, who falsely denied his association with the Kray brothers and took the Daily Mirror for £40,000 for suggesting it. Jeremy Thorpe was a client whose innocence he accepted but of whose defence he was glad to be relieved. He represented Aneurin Bevan, Dick Crossman and Morgan Phillips in their libel action against Another Magazine, which had suggested they were drunk at an Italian conference. Phillips, at least, was perjuring himself, but the politicians won. Goodman, Brivati suggests, "knew, without knowing". Goodman owed almost everything to Wilson: he told me that but for Lady Falkender, Wilson would have been our greatest prime minister - a ludicrous assertion - yet he later belittled him. He chaired a Wilson trust that secretly received funds from businessmen, some crooked, who consequently received honours. I never knew him to protest or acknowledge anything improper in it. Goodman could be a kind and generous man, so lax in his billing that he often didn't charge at all. The Friends of Arnold, especially in the arts world, are still numerous and cherish his memory. However, they don't include the Portman family, who accused him of stealing millions from a trust fund. Brivati persuasively clears Goodman of that charge, but Paul Foot, who originally made it, is a meticulous researcher, and I still cannot grasp why, if the accusation was totally unfounded, Goodman's old firm, Goodman Derrick, should have paid Lord Portman half a million pounds not to pursue his writ. Goodman understood the power of politicians, but not politics. He failed in Rhodesia for more than one government because he didn't see that majority rule was a principle impervious to compromise. And he could be careless with the truth. He claimed that Wilson asked him, in his last days in office, to help him become master of University College, at a time when he, Goodman, had a letter from the Fellows asking him to accept the post. Strange, that. About three months before he retired, I asked Wilson if he wanted an Oxford college. "Joe," he said, "after being prime minister, Oxford would be like managing a power station in Outer Mongolia." That had the greater ring of truth to me.

Tina Turner looks to become Swiss
GENEVA, Switzerland
Tina Turner is in the process of becoming a Swiss citizen.
Turner has lived outside Zurich since the mid-1990s. The Zuerichsee-Zeitung newspaper reports the local council has decided to grant Turner citizenship.
State and federal authorities must still approve the request.

20 February 2012
-Greetings from the Nassau Coliseum Press Box and Happy Presidents day to all!
-The presidents are in the house today. Honest Abe says hello.
-A blurry George Washington
- Thomas Jefferson gives us a wave.
- Long Island's own Teddy Ro...... Hey thats Quackerjack in today's game.
- There's Teddy Rosovelt
First Period
20:00- Game Time folks
18:52- Senators score off a fluky goal from the left side of the net. Karlsson credited with the goal unassisted.
18:25- Sens score to make it 2-0 less than a minute in. Jason Spezza with the goal.
12:25- The Islanders have been getting badly outworked for the better part of this period. A John Tavares wrist shot was the best Islanders chance this period. With that being said, the Islanders have been starting to get the puck into the Ottawa zone.
9:27- Jared Cowen gets called for tripping. The Islanders will get their first power play of the game.
???- PA Paerenteau kills of the Islanders power play by taking slashing penalty.
5:57- Karlsson scores once to give the Senators a 3-0 lead. Shot goes five-hole.
End of 1st Senators 3 Islanders 0
First Intermission
The Islanders came out flat to start the game and the Senators took full advantage. Two goals by Karlsson highlight the period along with a Jason Spezza goal in between. There is not much to say about how the Islanders played in that period other than uninspired. They need this win in the worst way and came up empty.
Second Period
17:18- Senators still seem to be controling the game. Though not as much as they were in the first.
12:38- The Islanders have managed to keep the puck in the Senators zone more and have had the created scoring chances. But haven't produced on it.
12:07- Kyle Turris shot gobbled up by Al Montoya.
10:23- Chris Phillips scores on the power play to make it 4-0. They had just gone on power play thanks to a delay of game called on Steve Staios.
15,818 is this afternoons attendance.
7:01- Matt Martin dropped the gloves with Zack Smith. The loudest Nassau Coliseum got all afternoon.
4:06- Senators called for too many men on the ice.
2:29- Islanders power play ends with 24 seconds left. Nino Niederrieter goes to the box for tripping. Islanders did not play with urgency on the power play.
.29- Islanders kill off the penalty on Nino.
End of the 2nd Senators 4 Islanders 0.
Second intermission
Another dissapointing period is in the books. The Islanders managed just five shots through the period and allowed, what most likely was the nail in the coffin, goal. While the Islanders play improved slightly, it was more of the same, with the Senators controling the play and Chris Phillips eventually burying a shot on the power play.
Third Period
16:44- The Islanders have had two scoring chances, but didn't do much with them.
16:35- Matt Martin nearly sneaks one threw the legs of Anderson.
12:00- Some back and forth as far as puck possesion goes. Nothing new to report really.
11:00- Islanders have taken 10 shots so far this period.
10:11- Brian Lee scores for the Senators to make it 5-0.
9:34- Jay Pandolfo given a 2 minute minor for hooking and PA Parenteau was ejected for mouthing off to the ref earlier.
9:03- Jason Spezza blasts a shot, top shelf, past Montoya and makes it 6-0.
5:47- Islanders nearly break the shutout.
5:20- Islanders have a power play with Foligno in the box.
3:00- Heading down early.
Final Senators 6 Islanders 0

November 26, 2012
Riverside, Calif. -- The Master's College women's basketball team notched its fifth victory of the season Monday evening in a 79-76 thriller over La Sierra. The win gave TMC a 5-0 start to the season, while La Sierra dropped to 1-7.
Jacquelyn Marshall (San Clemente, CA) led the way for TMC, scoring a team-high 20 points while notching her second consecutive double-double with 11 rebounds. Theresa Brown (Eugene, OR) added 15 points and Zoe Scott (Spokane, WA) tacked on nine more. Kelly Burns (Yorba Linda, CA) chipped in with eight points and Whitney Best dished out a team-best six assists.
The Mustangs opened up the night with a nine-point lead over the Golden Eagles which turned out to be their largest margin of the evening. TMC shot nearly 44% in the first half, sending Coach Dan Waldeck's team to the locker room tied at 37 with the hosts.
The game was tied on seven different occasions and featured 24 lead changes over the course of the night. The upset-minded Golden Eagles led by as many as eight points (17:40 mark of the second half) before the Mustangs rallied. They did so by outscoring the hosts 42-37 over the final 20 minutes. The Mustangs finished the evening converting 43% of their shots from the field.
Following the game, Waldeck said, "We didn't play near our potential tonight on either end of the floor. The layoff (10 days), combined with limited practice time and a La Sierra team that played inspired basketball, made for a rough night. But, we are thankful to get the win and move on."
Looking ahead, the coach added, "We will use this week to get back to work and restore our commitment to defending and rebounding. I'm proud of our resolve and belief in each other, especially in a game that had everything going against us."
Coach Waldeck and the undefeated Lady Mustangs stay on the road this coming weekend, playing at UC Merced on Friday and William Jessup in Redding on Saturday.

How to unpack a standard
From OpenContent Curriculum
This section addresses the following:
- Discuss the term unpack when referring to standards.
- Discuss the importance of unpacking standards.
- Provide strategies for unpacking standards in your classroom.
- Share some resources for unpacking standards.
What does "unpack" a standard mean?
Unpacking a standard is the process of identifying what students will know and be able to do when they have mastered the standard. Ciritical elements to the success of the unpacking process; identifying reliable resources for determining depth and rigor, scaffolding skills with level above and below, Using clear and concise language for students
Why Is It Important to Unpack Standards?
Unpacking standards provides teachers and students an oportunity to ...
What do you do when you come across a standard that you feel is too general or not sure what it means?
Where can I go to find out?
What are reliable Resources?
Example: SS 5.17 Understands the impact of European exploration on Native African and Native American peoples.
What does unpack mean?
- Dissecting-what does the standard say, EXACTLY.
- Determining the depth and rigor of each standard at a particular level.
- Matching essential questions with outcomes.
- Determining what proficiency looks like.
- Make a scoring guide.
- What are the necessary steps to demonstrating proficiency?
- Determining prior knowledge.
Dissecting a Standard
- Define what the standard is actually asking the students to know or accomplish.
- Students may rewrite the standard based on their definitions.
- Work with students to define the depth and rigor of the standard.
- Brainstorm activities or thematic units with students based on the definition and rigor of the standard.
Dissecting Standard Example Processes
- SC 4.4 Identify variables that influence the outcome of an experiment
- SC 3/4.5 Reproduction and heredity
- SC 4.4 Identify variables that influence the outcome of an experiment
What vocabulary would students identify as unfamiliar? Can they define those terms and identify synonyms? identify- recognize, name, discover, see, spot, find variables- things that can change, unknowns influence- effect, impact, change, manipulate outcome- result, product, ending, conclusion
SC 4.4 Find things that can change the result of an experiment. SC 3/4.5 Reproduction and heredity National Science Education Standard Life Science Content Standard C: All students should develop an understanding of: *The characteristics of organisms *Life cycles of organisms *Organisms and environment
SC 3/4.5 Reproduction and heredity National Science Education Standard
- Plants and animals have life cycles that include being born, developing into adults, reproducing, and eventually dying. The details of this life cycle are different for different organisms.
- Plants and animals closely resemble their parents.
- Many characteristics of an organism are inherited from the parents of the organism, but other characteristics result from an individual's interactions with the environment. Inherited characteristics include the color of flowers and the number of limbs of an animal. Other features, such as the ability to ride a bicycle, are learned through interactions with the environment and cannot be passed on to the next generation.
Using Essential Questions with Standards
- Ask questions to determine what the students should know and be able to do in the mastery of a standard.
- Ask questions to establish relevancy for learning.
- Use questions to determine the outcomes of the activity, performance task, or thematic unit.
- Use questions to help students understand the standard.
- Use questions to create rubrics or scoring guides.
Essential Questions Examples SS 3.10 Recognizes leadership positions in the city, state, and nation (mayor/chief, governor, president) SS 4.6 Notes cause and effect relationships SS 3.1
Formulates questions to focus inquiry and analysis
SS 4.8 Recognizes and understands an increasing number of social science terms SS 3.10 Recognizes leadership positions in the city, state, and nation (mayor/chief, governor, president)
Can the students describe the three most important responsibilities of the mayor, governor, and president? Can the students identify the person who is currently acting as mayor, governor, and president? Can the students describe how a person is chosen to be mayor, governor, and president? Do the students know how long a person can be mayor, governor, and president?
SS 4.6 Notes cause and effect relationships
- Do students know how people participate in government?
- Do students know why it is important to participate in government?
- Do students know why people vote for candidates?
- Do students know how someone wins an election?
- How are laws, taxes, and/or civil rights impacted by election results?
- Do students know how their personal lives/right have been effected by recent elections?
SS 3.1 Formulates questions to focus inquiry and analysis
- Do students know how to contact the mayor, governor, and president?
- Do the students know who to contact to express their opinions or to get help with specific problems?
- Do students know the party-line stance of the two major political parties on current issues?
SS 4.8 Recognizes and understands an increasing number of social science terms
- power
- authority
- branch
- executive
- president
- governor
- mayor
- vote
- election
- participate
- platform
- campaign

Determining the Rigor or Depth of a Standard (Example) SS 5.18 Compares and contrasts Native American and European cultural, economic, and political systems.
Standard 1D The student understands the differences and similarities among Africans, Europeans, and Native Americans who converged in the western hemisphere after 1492. Grade Level 5-12 Therefore, the student is able to 5-12 Compare political systems, including concepts of political authority, civic values, and the organization and practice of government. [Compare and contrast different political systems] 5-12 Compare social organizations, including population levels, urbanization, family structure, and modes of communication. [Compare and contrast different social organizations] 5-12 Compare economic systems, including systems of labor, trade, concepts of property, and exploitation of natural resources. [Compare and contrast different economic institutions] 5-12 Compare dominant ideas and values including religious belief and practice, gender roles, and attitudes toward nature. [Compare and contrast the influence of ideas]
Determining the Rigor or Depth of a Standard (Example)
SS 5.17 Understands the impact of European exploration on Native African and Native American peoples.
Standard 2A The student understands the stages of European oceanic and overland exploration, amid international rivalries, from the 9th to 17th centuries. Grade Level Therefore, the student is able to 5-12 Trace routes taken by early explorers, from the 15th through the 17th century, around Africa, to the Americas, and across the Pacific. [Draw upon data in historical maps] 7-12 Evaluate the significance of Columbus' voyages and his interactions with indigenous peoples. [Assess the importance of the individual in history] 5-12 Compare English, French, and Dutch motives for exploration with those of the Spanish. [Compare and contrast different sets of ideas] 9-12 Appraise the role of national and religious rivalries in the age of exploration and evaluate their long-range consequences. [Consider multiple perspectives] 7-12 Evaluate the course and consequences of the "Columbian Exchange." [Hypothesize the influence of the past] Determining the Rigor or Depth of a Standard (Textbook Example) SS 5.17 Understands the impact of European exploration on Native African and Native American peoples.

"This $5 million tranche provides us with important non-dilutive funding that will allow us to maintain a strong balance sheet as we close our transaction with EGEN," stated Jeff Church, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Celsion. "With a cash position of over $52 million at the end of March 2014, together with the financial flexibility of the Hercules loan agreement, Celsion is well-positioned to advance the combined Celsion-EGEN pipeline after the acquisition closes."
Celsion obtained the consent from Hercules to acquire EGEN required under the terms of the November 2013 loan agreement with Hercules.
"We welcome the opportunity to support Celsion's strategic initiative to expand their pipeline," said Bryan Jadot, Managing Director at Hercules. "The acquisition of EGEN strengthens Celsion's product portfolio and technology base, and we look forward to seeing the combined company reach critical value-creating milestones with its multi-stage oncology pipeline and broad technology platforms."
Upon the closing of this second tranche, Celsion has drawn down a total of $10 million under the November 25, 2013 agreement with Hercules. The funding is in the form of secured indebtedness bearing interest at a floating prime-based variable rate. In conjunction with the November 2013 loan agreement, Celsion issued Hercules a warrant exercisable for a total of 194,986 shares of Celsion's common stock at a per share exercise price of $3.59, with 50% immediately exercisable and the remaining 50% exercisable upon Hercules' funding of this $5 million draw-down. The Hercules Warrant will expire November 25, 2018.
In a press release issued earlier today, Celsion announced the signing of a definitive asset purchase agreement in which Celsion will acquire substantially all of the assets and assume certain liabilities of EGEN, including its Phase II DNA-based immunotherapy product candidate EGEN-001 and its therapeutic platform technologies, TheraPlas for delivery of DNA, TheraSilence for delivery of RNA, and RAST for Cell Enabled Expression and Secretion of RNA. The closing of the acquisition is subject to satisfaction of certain closing conditions specified in the agreement.

The 21 associates at Houston-based Susman Godfrey who have been there for all of 2012 have more cash in their wallets this week. The firm paid out $1.275 million in bonuses to that group on the weekend of Dec. 15. On average, the associates who have worked at the firm all year each received about $60,000, according to Neal Manne, one of the firm's managing partners.
Manne says the incoming class of associates who started in the fall of 2012 got smaller rewards than those who've been with the firm longer, since they've been at the firm for only a few months.
Manne says the bonuses ranged from $35,000 for associates in the class of 2010 to $85,000 for those in the class of 2006.
Manne says staff lawyers at the firm, who are neither partners nor on a partnership track, also received bonuses but generally smaller ones.

Raleigh, N.C. — As the U.S. House's Republican caucus clashes over the vote to raise the debt ceiling, North Carolina's delegation is in the national spotlight on the front lines of the battle.
The standoff that led to the federal shutdown officially began with a letter written by 11th District Congressman Rep. Mark Meadows. His letter urged House Speaker John Boehner not to pass a continuing resolution to keep the government open unless it included language to de-fund the Affordable Care Act.
Among the 80 Congress members who signed the letter, dubbed the "Suicide Caucus" by conservative Fox News commentator Charles Krauthammer, were five out of the nine Republicans in North Carolina's House delegation – Meadows, 13th District Congressman George Holding, 8th District Congressman Richard Hudson, 6th District Congressman Howard Coble and 3rd District Congressman Walter Jones.
That puts North Carolina in a tie with Michigan for the state with the second-most signatories to the Meadows letter. Texas was in first place, with 11 of its 24 Republican House members signing on.
In addition, Holding, Hudson, Jones and Meadows also signed on to co-sponsor the "Graves bill," the House legislation linking the continuing resolution to the de-funding of the health care law.
Asked in July about linking the two, North Carolina's Republican Senator Richard Burr called it "the dumbest idea I've ever heard." He followed up Wednesday, telling The New York Times the strategy has been a failure.
"Let's just say sometimes learning what can't be accomplished is an important long-term thing," Burr told the newspaper, "and hopefully, for some of the members, they've learned it's impossible to de-fund mandatory programs by shutting down the federal government."
Asked for a response, the North Carolina Republican Party attacked Democratic U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan instead. The GOP is hoping to take her seat in 2014.
"During the shutdown, Kay Hagan has refused to work across the aisle to broker a compromise, instead spending her time holding ritzy fundraisers with lobbyists in Washington," N.C. GOP director Todd Poole said in a statement. "Given countless opportunities to support commonsense proposals supported by Republicans and moderate Democrats to keep paying our veterans and reopen national parks during the shutdown, Kay Hagan has sided with (Senate Majority Leader) Harry Reid over hard-working North Carolinians."
Hagan, it should be noted, was opposed to the shutdown, as was Burr, and while the Senate managed to come up with a bipartisan plan Wednesday, the House Republican majority was unable to do so.
In the meantime, the shutdown has had an outsized effect on North Carolina, thanks to the high number of federal workers – Defense Department employees and contractors working at the state's military bases and in Research Triangle Park. Thousands of those workers have been furloughed since Oct. 1.
The impasse has taken a toll on the state's safety net programs, too. The federally funded Work First welfare program has been shuttered. Childcare subsidies for low-income families are being suspended in at least one-third of the state's counties. Food aid to families with infants and young children was temporarily shut down, then reopened. Job training for displaced employees and people with disabilities has been suspended.
Still, William Peace University political science professor David McLennan said he doesn't expect North Carolina's five signatories in the House to pay a political price next November for backing the shutdown.
"That's a long time for people to forget, particularly because cliffhangers have become part of our political culture. People think it's just politics as usual," said McLennan. "If we get past this, there's no debt ceiling breach, and the economy comes back. A lot of this will be forgotten."
While Meadows' and Hudson's western districts are less affected by the shutdown, he said, "For someone like Jones, it's a much more risky proposition, because all the military employees in his district are feeling it on a daily basis."
Holding, too, is taking a risk, McLennan added, "because his district does touch on the Triangle, and the Triangle's not as 'tea party' as other parts of the state."
But, he says, the new congressional districts were redrawn in such a way that most of the signatories could lose 10 percent of their support without losing their seats – and that may be why they're playing a more prominent role in the House GOP's feud.
"I think it shows what's happened in the last two election cycles in North Carolina," McLennan said. "Not only has the congressional delegation changed, but the Republican Party has changed. These are tea party-supported folks. That's how they ran, and that's how they're going to vote. This is not the traditional Democrat-Republican state of 10 years ago."

We have used the concept of a query so far only to create a list of fields that would be considered for a set of records. We also mentioned that a query in Microsoft Access is simply a means of visually representing data. Indeed, a query is based on a SQL statement. As SQL is its own, fully functional language, we can use it to perform far more operations than to only select columns for a query. The SQL can be used to create tables, modify tables, perform data entry, modify records, etc. Some of these operations can be performed visually in the query Design View. They can also be performed using SQL statements. To know what is going on behind the scenes, you can write your own code (SQL statement). You can also use the Design View to start a query, and then open the code to customize the statement. More detail...
