[Audio] – 1981 'Briefcase' Tracks, Part 4 (Blah Blah Blah, Blancmange, Blondie, Blue Angel, B-Movie)
Various – Tracks from the '1981' Briefcase Disc, Part 4
Five more tracks constitute the 4th installment from the '1981' box set's 'Briefcase' disc, which housed over 250 further bands and tracks not found in the nine themed mixes in the set. You can see previous installments and keep track of new ones with this tag.
Still in the "B"s, again we have a playful grab-bag including the familiar, the not-yet-famous, and the more or less forgotten. Blah Blah Blah and Blancmange are here from the 'Some Bizzare Album' compilation, the former with an oddly entertaining spoken-word ghost story, the latter with a diminutive little organ-beat-and-guitar doodle in the instrumental Young Marble Giants/Essendon Airport mode. Then there's one that needs little introduction from Blondie (though the "rap" part probably needs an apology, even from the days of fairly stilted flow). You might think the Buddy Holly-inflected music of Blue Angel sounds familiar–and you're probably right, if you were alive in 1983-1988 or so: it's Cyndi Lauper's band, and it's pretty catchy and cute. Finally there's B-Movie, with a track that's for some unknown reason stuck with me more than it probably warrants; but it has an infectiously urgent feeling and a nice full-stop-restart chorus, keyboard hook, and piano accompaniment that makes it remind me a little of the Suburbs, who're featured a couple times on the main mixes.
Blah Blah Blah – "Central Park"
Blancmange – "Sad Day" (Edit)
Blondie – "Rapture" (Edit)
Blue Angel – "Can't Blame Me"
B-Movie – "Remembrance Day"

Introduction: No measures are available for understanding beliefs in men who experience shame about the perceived size of their penis. Such a measure might be helpful for treatment planning, and measuring outcome after any psychological or physical intervention. Aim: Our aim was to validate a newly developed measure called the Beliefs about Penis Size Scale (BAPS). Method: One hundred seventy-three male participants completed a new questionnaire consisting of 18 items to be validated and developed into the BAPS, as well as various other standardized measures. A urologist also measured actual penis size. Main Outcome Measures: The BAPS was validated against six psychosexual self-report questionnaires as well as penile size measurements. Results: Exploratory factor analysis reduced the number of items in the BAPS from 18 to 10, which was best explained by one factor. The 10-item BAPS had good internal consistency and correlated significantly with measures of depression, anxiety, body image quality of life, social anxiety, erectile function, overall satisfaction, and the importance attached to penis size. The BAPS was not found to correlate with actual penis size. It was able to discriminate between those who had concerns or were dissatisfied about their penis size and those who were not. Conclusions: This is the first study to develop a scale for measurement of beliefs about penis size. It may be used as part of an assessment for men who experience shame about the perceived size of their penis and as an outcome measure after treatment. The BAPS measures various manifestations of masculinity and shame about their perceived penis size including internal self-evaluative beliefs; negative evaluation by others; anticipated consequences of a perceived small penis, and extreme self-consciousness. © 2013 International Society for Sexual Medicine.

Penile dysmorphic disorder (PDD) is shorthand for men diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder, in whom the size or shape of the penis is their main, if not their exclusive, preoccupation causing significant shame or handicap. There are no specific measures for identifying men with PDD compared to men who are anxious about the size of their penis but do not have PDD. Such a measure might be helpful for treatment planning, reducing unrealistic expectations, and measuring outcome after any psychological or physical intervention. Our aim was, therefore, to validate a specific measure, termed the Cosmetic Procedure Screening Scale for PDD (COPS-P). Eighty-one male participants were divided into three groups: a PDD group (n = 21), a small penis anxiety group (n = 37), and a control group (n = 23). All participants completed the COPS-P as well as standardized measures of depression, anxiety, social phobia, body image, quality of life, and erectile function. Penis size was also measured. The final COPS-P was based on nine items. The scale had good internal reliability and significant convergent validity with measures of related constructs. It discriminated between the PDD group, the small penis anxiety group, and the control group. This is the first study to develop a scale able to discriminate between those with PDD and men anxious about their size who did not have PDD. Clinicians and researchers may use the scale as part of an assessment for men presenting with anxiety about penis size and as an audit or outcome measure after any intervention for this population. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.

Background: Despite variability in sexual activity among people with severe mental illness, high-risk sexual behavior (e.g. unprotected intercourse, multiple partners, sex trade and illicit drug use) is common. Sexual health risk reduction interventions (such as educational and behavioral interventions, motivational exercises, counselling and service delivery), developed and implemented for people with severe mental illness, may improve participants' knowledge, attitudes, beliefs behaviors or practices (including assertiveness skills) and could lead to a reduction in risky sexual behavior. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of sexual health risk reduction interventions for people with severe mental illness. Methods: Thirteen electronic databases (including MEDLINE, EMBASE and PsycINFO) were searched to August 2014, and supplemented by hand-searching relevant articles and contacting experts. All controlled trials (randomized or non-randomized) comparing the effectiveness of sexual health risk reduction interventions with usual care for individuals living in the community with severe mental illness were included. Outcomes included a range of biological, behavioral and proxy endpoints. Narrative synthesis was used to combine the evidence. Results: Thirteen controlled trials (all from the USA) were included. Although there was no clear and consistent evidence that interventions reduce the total number of sex partners or improved behavioral intentions in sexual risk behavior, positive effects were generally observed in condom use, condom protected intercourse and on measures of HIV knowledge, attitudes to condom use and sexual behaviors and practices. However, the robustness of these findings is low due to the large between study variability, small sample sizes and low-to-moderate quality of included studies. Conclusions: There is insufficient evidence at present to fully support or reject the identified sexual health risk reduction interventions for people with severe mental illness. Given the serious consequences of high-risk sexual behaviors, there is an urgent need for well-designed UK based trials, as well as training and support for staff implementing sexual health risk reduction interventions.

Numerous studies have now demonstrated that many older women retain an interest in their sexual lives. Yet, how many old age psychiatrists commonly check with older women about whether the depression they are treating, or the SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors) they have prescribed, have adversely affected their patient's sexual lives? We consider the latest evidence regarding cultural, social and medical influences on older women's sexual lives and some specific issues which affect lesbian and transsexual people. We examine how mental illness and psychotropic medication in particular can adversely affect older women's sexual functioning and at how difficult it often proves to be for women to seek help. We also focus on why doctors and in particular psychiatrists may not take a sexual history, look for sexual side effects or refer for appropriate treatment, especially when interviewing older women patients. Most published information about psychiatric training and sexual issues focuses on the younger male patient. We therefore aimed to provide a broad-ranging review of the literature regarding female sexual functioning in old age, the difficulties that can arise and the role that old age psychiatrists have an opportunity to fulfil, in this often neglected aspect of their patients' treatment. From our review it was clear that, in the light of the increasing cultural acceptability of discussions regarding sexuality and older women, the training of student doctors and trainee psychiatrists needs to reflect this change so that old age psychiatrists can enhance the quality of their patient care.

Background: Tramadol is a centrally acting analgesic prescribed off-label for the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE). However, tramadol may cause addiction and difficulty in breathing and the beneficial effect of tramadol in PE is yet not supported by a high level of evidence. The purpose of this study was to systematically review the evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCT) for tramadol in the management of PE. Methods: We searched bibliographic databases including MEDLINE to August 2014 for RCTs. The primary outcome was intra-vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT). Methodological quality of RCTs was assessed. Between-group differences in IELT and other outcomes were pooled across RCTs in a meta-analysis. Statistical and clinical between-trial heterogeneity was assessed. Results: A total of eight RCTs that evaluated tramadol against a comparator were included. The majority of RCTs were of unclear methodological quality due to limited reporting. Pooled evidence (four RCTs, 721 participants), suggests that tramadol is significantly more effective than placebo at increasing IELT over eight to 12 weeks (p = 0.0007). However, a high level of statistical heterogeneity is evident (I-squared = 74%). Single RCT evidence indicates that tramadol is significantly more effective than paroxetine taken on-demand, sildenafil, lidocaine gel, or behavioural therapy on IELT in men with PE. Tramadol is associated with significantly more adverse events including: erectile dysfunction, constipation, nausea, headache, somnolence, dry mouth, dizziness, pruritus, and vomiting, than placebo or behavioural therapy over eight to 12 weeks of treatment. However, addiction problems or breathing difficulties reported by patients for PE is not assessed in the current evidence base. Conclusions: Tramadol appears effective in the treatment of PE. However, these findings should be interpreted with caution given the observed levels of between-trial heterogeneity and the reporting quality of the available evidence. The variability across placebo-controlled trials in terms of the tramadol dose evaluated and the treatment duration does not permit any assessment of a safe and effective minimum daily dose. The long-term effects and side effects, including addiction potential, for men with PE have not been evaluated in the current evidence base. Trial registration: The review is registered on PROSPERO 2013: CRD42013005289. © 2015 Martyn-St James et al.; licensee BioMed Central.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is defined as ejaculation within 1 minute (lifelong PE) or 3 minutes (acquired PE), inability to delay ejaculation, and negative personal consequences. Management includes behavioral and pharmacologic approaches.To systematically review effectiveness, safety, and robustness of evidence for complementary and alternative medicine in managing PE.Nine databases including Medline were searched through September 2015. Randomized controlled trials evaluating complementary and alternative medicine for PE were included.Studies were included if they reported on intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) and/or another validated PE measurement. Adverse effects were summarized.Ten randomized controlled trials were included. Two assessed acupuncture, five assessed Chinese herbal medicine, one assessed Ayurvedic herbal medicine, and two assessed topical severance secret cream. Risk of bias was unclear in all studies because of unclear allocation concealment or blinding, and only five studies reported stopwatch-measured IELT. Acupuncture slightly increased IELT over placebo in one study (mean difference [MD]= 0.55 minute, P= .001). In another study, Ayurvedic herbal medicine slightly increased IELT over placebo (MD= 0.80 minute, P= .001). Topical severance secret cream increased IELT over placebo in two studies (MD=8.60 minutes, P < .001), although inclusion criteria were broad (IELT < 3 minutes). Three studies comparing Chinese herbal medicine with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) favored SSRIs (MD= 1.01 minutes, P= .02). However, combination treatment with Chinese medicine plus SSRIs improved IELT over SSRIs alone (two studies; MD= 1.92 minutes, P < .00001) and over Chinese medicine alone (two studies; MD= 2.52 minutes, P < .00001). Adverse effects were not consistently assessed but where reported were generally mild.There is preliminary evidence for the effectiveness of acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, Ayurvedic herbal medicine, and topical severance secret cream in improving IELT and other outcomes. However, results are based on clinically heterogeneous studies of unclear quality. There are sparse data on adverse effects or potential for drug interactions. Further well-conducted randomized controlled trials would be valuable.

Eutectic Mixture of Local Anaesthetics (EMLA) is recommended for use off-label as a treatment for premature ejaculation (PE). Other topical anaesthetics are available, some of which have been evaluated against oral treatments. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCTs) for topical anaesthetics in the management of PE. Bibliographic databases including MEDLINE were searched to August 2014. The primary outcome was intra-vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT). Methodological quality of RCTs was assessed. IELT and other outcomes were pooled across RCTs in a meta-analysis. Between-trial heterogeneity was assessed. Nine RCTs were included. Seven were of unclear methodological quality. Pooled evidence (two RCTs, 43 participants) suggests that EMLA is significantly more effective than placebo at increasing IELT (P<0.00001). Individual RCT evidence also suggests that Topical Eutectic-like Mixture for Premature Ejaculation (TEMPE) spray and lidocaine gel are both significantly more effective than placebo (P=0.003; P<0.00001); and lidocaine gel is significantly more effective than sildenafil or paroxetine (P=0.01; P=0.0001). TEMPE spray is associated with significantly more adverse events than placebo (P=0.003). More systemic adverse events are reported with tramadol, sildenafil and paroxetine than with lidocaine gel. Diverse methods of assessing sexual satisfaction and ejaculatory control with topical anaesthetics are reported and evidence is conflicting. Topical anaesthetics appear more effective than placebo, paroxetine and sildenafil at increasing IELT in men with PE. However, the methodological quality of the existing RCT evidence base is uncertain.

Aims: The aim of this paper is to explore the potential value of questionnaires in routine clinical practice to assess female sexual dysfunction (FSD), and to identify if this could increase the competence of a physician in the initial management of women with these problems. The rationale to encourage Health Care Professionals (HCPs) to engage women in dialogue about their sexual health is that it may enhance a woman's quality of life (which may lead to improved general health) and might lead to timely interventions and possible preventative measures for certain diseases. Method: A short literature review of the most relevant publications was undertaken evaluating current practice. Results: FSD can have a negative impact on women's well-being and can also be an early symptom of underlying disease. Many HCPs do not broach the subject, consequently women do not get the opportunity either to voice their sexual concerns or access appropriate services. Review of currently available FSD questionnaires suggests that many but not all are generally inappropriate for use in routine clinical practice. Kriston et al.'s [1] STEFFI-2 may be an appropriate starting point. Evidence suggests that this would facilitate discussion of sexual matters between the HCP and the women, and increase the likelihood of FSD being diagnosed. Conclusions: Following this review of the literature, the authors strongly recommend that HCPs include FSD questionnaires as part of their routine engagement with women. However, the questionnaire would need to be used as part of the overall assessment and cannot replace a detailed case history and examination, which should lead to effective treatment and management of FSD. The authors recommend further research in the following areas:Effective training for HCPs.FSD as an early presentation of sub-clinical disease.The cost-benefit of early treatment of FSD.A standardised, validated FSD screening tool.Benefits of using FSD screener in routine clinical practice.

It has been suggested that an indicator of a doctors ability to assess patients sexual function relates to the level of earlier training. The amount and quality of training the doctor receives at the undergraduate level and beyond could contribute to the doctors confidence and competence.To evaluate whether doctors found that the teaching in human sexuality received at medical school was sufficient for their future practice and whether their chosen medical specialty and exposure to issues related to sexual health affected this opinion.One hundred seventy doctors maintaining contact with the University of Sheffield Medical School Alumni Office after qualifying in 2004 were sent self-completion postal questionnaires. Space was allocated for supplementary comments to their answers.Self-completion postal questionnaire.Although the response rate was low, there appeared to be an impact of the teaching of human sexuality on the clinical practice of doctors. More than two-thirds of respondents rated the teaching as useful and more than 70% felt more confident in diagnosing and managing male and female sexual issues.The results show a link between the undergraduate teaching of sexual medicine and education and a subsequent proactive approach to sexuality issues; unfortunately, the study does not provide any information about the level of skills or ability in this field of medicine. We have confirmed that the Sheffield model might be suitable for teaching sexual medicine issues in the United Kingdom but cannot confirm that the current format is suitable for international undergraduate audiences. Future study could include other medical schools and a comparison of sexual medicine practice among physicians who received undergraduate medical education and overall numbers could be increased to compare current practice with the number of hours of sexual medicine education as a key parameter.

Kiddy GiRL-AND Episode 22 Discussion
Mar 11, 2010 7:02 PM
Mar 12, 2010 12:04 AM
It was incredible! Brilliant! The first half not much but the second half was incredible! From the entry of Q-Feuille with music in the background to the sudden appearance of not only Tweedledee and Tweedledum but also A-un/Ou-un coming suddenly. The background music was really good there too. The action was lived for! Ah.......Tweedledee using her powers to stop Sapphire's ice and Tweedledum saving her sister while in action. A-un/Ou-un using their powers to how they are supposed was brilliant! The battle of GTO VS the forces of Gaktoer was not bad but should have been longer
Gaktoer is crazy wanting to destroy all as if he was not mad enough. Best was when Eclair/Lumiere came and spoke more....... that was incredible.....let's hope they come back safe again and Gaktoer must die. Surprised that Rubis would become against Gaktoer in the end. Q-Feuille was also impressive with her power upped version when using her powers. Next episode.....Q-Feuille being grabbed by Gaktoer....not good and Hiver/Sommer being frozen looks bad....will Eclair/Lumiere come really to the rescue?

This episode was a bit averages,
What are you talking about.....compared to others of this serie except episode 20 it was amazing! It think this is the best and if it continues like that.....it will only get better like it did in Kiddy Grade! The way it's going this the way Kiddy Grade was going except better than this series.
Blackbird said:I knew that from the beginning that they were just frozen.
The planet time space that Eclair & Lumière stopped, but in previous episodes they actually didn't died just they time stopped.

One of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures, porcelain veneers are one of the most effective ways to transform dull, cracked, stained, or misshapen teeth into a fantastic, unforgettable smile.
What are porcelain veneers?
Veneers are thin shells of dental porcelain that are firmly adhered to the front teeth. They are radiolucent and precisely fabricated to create your ideal smile.
How does the porcelain veneer process work?
When you choose porcelain veneers, Dr. Rabeeh will hold a private consultation with you at our Hornsby practice to discuss your ideal smile, and will recommend the best way to achieve the results you want. At your veneer appointment, a very thin layer will be removed from the front of any teeth which will receive veneers. At your second visit, Dr. Rabeeh will cement your custom made porcelain veneers permanently into place.
What problems can porcelain veneers address?
Why are porcelain veneers so popular? Besides being a conservative cosmetic treatment, porcelain veneers can correct a host of aesthetic issues. Whether you'd like to cover stained teeth, correct gaps between your teeth, or lengthen teeth that are too short, porcelain veneers can address your needs.
If you're unhappy with your smile's appearance, talk to Dr. Rabeeh about our cosmetic dentistry solutions, including porcelain veneers. What better way to regain the confidence and smile you deserve?

The following gem appeared in my email inbox recently, sent by a fluffy old bat called Agatha. (It's alright, she's a sort of friend of a friend, and she can look after herself.)
If writers of internet blogs
Would keep those blogs updated
Their loyal reading public
Might not feel so frustrated
Or provoked to silly banter
Like this one.
(Signed) A. Ranter
I laughed, and was going to scrunch it up, virtually speaking. But a fan letter – or a fan poem – is not to be sneezed at. (Random thought: why should anyone sneeze at anything?) People sometimes leave comments on blogs, but to go to the trouble of composing a poem is to go the extra mile.
But is it a poem or a pome? Poems come in all grades, from lyric to doggerel, verse or worse. Pomes are something else. The word was coined by accident, a typo during the process of editing a manuscript, but soon came to be applied to a poem that is not quite right, when it is over-written or sentimental, when it stutters or strikes the wrong note, or simply doesn't measure up. Pomes are pretentious, coy or clichéd. They make you wrinkle the brow, click the tongue.
Poems can only be pomes if they are trying to be poems (are you getting confused?). Agatha's, of course, was not trying to do any such thing. It was just a bit of fun.

text: Crimes & Courts Supreme Court Backs Broad Enforcement Of Travel Ban — For Now By Richard Gonzales • Sep 11, 2017 The U.S. Supreme Court will temporarily allow the Trump administration to block many refugees from six mostly Muslim countries without direct familial ties in the United States from entering this country. In a brief order issued Monday, Justice Anthony Kennedy delayed implementation of a ruling issued by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals last week that would have allowed entry to refugees with formal ties to resettlement agencies here. U.S. Supreme Court Will Decide If Voting Is "Use It Or Lose It" Right In Ohio By Howard Wilkinson • Aug 14, 2017 DAN KONIK Not to be morbid, but let's say you are an Ohioan who has passed away and is no longer with us. Should your name be removed from the voting rolls? Supreme Court Will Re-Hear Immigrant Indefinite Detention Case By Richard Gonzales • Jun 26, 2017 The U.S. Supreme Court says it will re-hear a case that asks whether immigrants detained by the government have a right to a bond hearing to challenge their indefinite detention. The case was argued in November 2016, months before Justice Neil Gorsuch filled the vacant seat of late Justice Antonin Scalia. Supreme Court Revives Parts Of Trump's Travel Ban As It Agrees To Hear Case By Joel Rose • Jun 26, 2017 The Supreme Court says it will decide the fate of President Trump's revised travel ban, agreeing to hear arguments over immigration cases that were filed in federal courts in Hawaii and Maryland and allowing parts of the ban that has been on hold since March to take effect. The justices removed the two lower courts' injunctions against the ban "with respect to foreign nationals who lack any bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States," narrowing the scope of those injunctions that had put the ban in limbo. Environmentalists Rejoice: Court Says Land Regulation Doesn't Go 'Too Far' By Nina Totenberg • Jun 24, 2017 In a major property rights decision, the U.S. Supreme Court has delivered a decisive victory to state and local governments and environmental groups. By a 5-to-3 vote, the justices made it much harder for property owners to get compensation from the government when zoning regulations restrict the use of just part of landowners' property. Supreme Court Overturns Lower Court On Grounds For Stripping U.S. Citizenship By Bill Chappell • Jun 22, 2017 A naturalized U.S. citizen should not have been stripped of her citizenship for the sole reason that she lied to U.S. officials, the Supreme Court ruled Thursday, vacating a lower court's decision. The plaintiff, an ethnic Serb who entered the U.S. as a refugee, had argued that false answers she gave to immigration officials were immaterial to procuring citizenship. "We have never read a statute to strip citizenship from someone who met the legal criteria for acquiring it," Justice Elena Kagan wrote in the court's opinion. "We will not start now." U.S. Supreme Court Declines To Hear Case Related To Ballot Omissions By Andy Chow • Jun 19, 2017 The U.S. Supreme Court has decided to not hear an argument from an Ohio group that claims the state's top elections official is wrongfully tossing out ballots. With Supreme Court Taking Up Case, Husted Stands Behind Voter Roll Purges By Jo Ingles • May 31, 2017 STATEHOUSE NEWS BUREAU The fight over how Ohio has maintained its voter rolls has made it to the nation's highest court. U.S. Supreme Court Will Hear Ohio Appeal Over Voter Roll Purge By Associated Press • May 30, 2017 Joe Ravi / Wikimedia commons The Supreme Court will decide whether Ohio wrongfully purged eligible voters from the state's registration list. President Trump Gets A Head Start On Shaping The Federal Courts By Scott Horsley • May 8, 2017 President Trump is moving quickly to put his personal stamp on the federal courts. On Monday the president nominated 10 people for federal judgeships. Thanks to an unusually large number of vacancies on the bench, there could be many more to come. "This is just a down payment," said John Malcolm of the Heritage Foundation. He noted there are more than 100 open seats on the federal district courts and appeals courts. Playground Case Could Breach Barrier Between Tax Coffers, Religious Schools By Nina Totenberg • Apr 19, 2017 The U.S. Supreme Court hears oral arguments Wednesday in a Missouri case with the potential to open grant programs to parochial schools. Senate Confirms Gorsuch To Supreme Court By Nina Totenberg • Apr 7, 2017 Updated at 2:47 p.m. ET Judge Neil Gorsuch was confirmed Friday as the 113th justice to serve on the nation's highest court. The final vote was 54-45, mostly along party lines. Republicans Rally For Gorsuch At Ohio Statehouse By Jo Ingles • Apr 6, 2017 About two dozen Ohio Republicans who support President Trump's nomination of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court took their message to the Statehouse earlier today. Senate Pulls 'Nuclear' Trigger To Ease Gorsuch Confirmation By Susan Davis • Apr 6, 2017 This is how the Senate changes — not with a bang, but with a motion to overturn the ruling of the chair. By a simple majority vote, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., set a new precedent in the Senate that will ease the confirmation for President Trump's Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch on Friday, after 30 more hours of debate on the floor. "This will be the first, and last, partisan filibuster of a Supreme Court justice," said McConnell in a closing floor speech. 5 Insights On The Senate's 'Nuclear' Battle Over Neil Gorsuch By Mara Liasson • Apr 6, 2017 Thursday is the day the judicial filibuster in the Senate is scheduled to die. There hasn't been much of an effort to save it, but there have been a lot of lamentations for the slow demise of the World's Greatest Deliberative Body (WGDB), otherwise known as the U.S. Senate. Here are five insights into what the death of the judicial filibuster means: 1. The winners and losers Give Gorsuch A Vote, Portman Says, And Go "Nuclear" If Needed By Adora Namigadde • Apr 4, 2017 Gage Skidmore / Flickr Creative Commons Sen. Rob Portman says he's hopeful Congress will be able to vote this week on Neil Gorsuch, President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, without invoking the so-called "nuclear" option—but he'd support it as a last result. Democrats Have The Votes To Filibuster Gorsuch And Force 'Nuclear' Senate Showdown By Scott Detrow • Apr 3, 2017 Updated at 7:15 p.m. ET. Forty-one Democratic senators have now publicly announced that they will vote against ending debate this week on the nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court. That means Republicans cannot at this time clear the 60-vote threshold needed to proceed to an up-or-down vote on the nomination. It also sets up an historic vote to end the Senate's filibuster rule for Supreme Court nominees. Weekly Reporter Roundtable By All Sides Staff • Apr 3, 2017 Alexander Smith / Wikimedia Commons GOP Ohio lawmakers are working to pass legislation that will help curb the opiate epidemic in the state. Ohio had the most opioid-related overdose deaths in the country in 2014, with prescription opioids accounting for 22 percent of those deaths. The bill will prevent doctors from over-prescribing opiates and will require state officials to make available online patient education and counseling resources. Today we'll discuss this and the latest in state and national news with a panel of reporters. Guests: The Senate Could Go 'Nuclear' This Week. What Does That Mean? By Susan Davis • Apr 3, 2017 The U.S. Senate could make history this week, but no one is feeling particularly good about it. "It is depressing; I'm very depressed," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. "We're all arguing against it, but we don't know any other option." The nomination of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court and the GOP blockade against Merrick Garland before him are forcing another showdown over whether to invoke the "nuclear option" and change the rules of the Senate to make it easier for a president to get all of his nominations approved. Political Junkie Ken Rudin By All Sides Staff • Mar 31, 2017 White House Official Photographer / Wikipedia Commons As Judge Neil Gorsuch's confirmation vote for Supreme Court draws closer, it's becoming apparent that Democrats are prepared to filibuster. If he does not get the 60 votes needed to clear the Senate, Republicans could invoke the "nuclear option" and create a rule change that would allow Gorsuch to be confirmed with just a simple majority. Join us as we discuss this and the latest in political news with Ken Rudin. Guest: Supreme Court Rejects Texas Standard For Mental Disability In Capital Cases By Nina Totenberg • Mar 29, 2017 The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that the state of Texas has been using an unconstitutional and obsolete medical standard for determining whether those convicted of murder are exempt from the death penalty because of mental deficiency. The 5-to-3 decision came in the case of Bobby James Moore, who killed a store clerk in Houston in 1980 during a botched robbery. Schumer Says He'll Oppose Gorsuch Nomination, Sets Up Filibuster Showdown With GOP By Brian Naylor • Mar 23, 2017 Updated at 5:45 p.m. ET On the final day of the confirmation hearings for Judge Neil Gorsuch, the Senate Democratic leader announced his opposition to the Supreme Court nominee. In a speech on the Senate floor, Chuck Schumer said Gorsuch "will have to earn 60 votes for confirmation," setting up a showdown with Republican leaders who may attempt to change Senate rules. The Supreme Court Rules In Favor Of A Special Education Student By Anya Kamenetz • Mar 22, 2017 School districts must give students with disabilities the chance to make meaningful, "appropriately ambitious" progress, the Supreme Court said Wednesday in an 8-0 ruling. The decision in Endrew F. v. Douglas County School District could have far-reaching implications for the 6.5 million students with disabilities in the United States. 5 Insights Into Judge Neil Gorsuch After 2nd Day Of Confirmation Hearings By Brian Naylor • Mar 21, 2017 After a day of statements, Tuesday's Supreme Court confirmation hearing was all about answers.

The live blog will include streaming video, with posts featuring highlights, context and analysis from NPR reporters and correspondents. Republicans Praise Gorsuch, Democrats Decry Garland Treatment On Day 1 Of Hearings By Jessica Taylor • Mar 20, 2017 At his Supreme Court confirmation hearing, Neil Gorsuch pitched himself as a reasonable jurist who would do his best to uphold the rule of law without any bias. "Sitting here, I am acutely aware of my own imperfections," the federal appeals court judge told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday. "But I pledge to each of you and to the American people that, if confirmed, I will do all my powers permit to be a faithful servant of the Constitution and laws of our great nation." Supreme Court Allows Prying Into Jury Deliberations If Racism Is Perceived By Nina Totenberg • Mar 6, 2017 The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday that when clear evidence emerges after a jury verdict that there was racial bias during deliberations, the trial judge must make an exception to the usual rule protecting the secrecy of deliberations in order to determine whether the defendant was denied a fair trial. The vote was 5-to-3. Writing for the court majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy said that racial discrimination is unlike other types of misconduct that may occur in the jury room because it "implicates unique historical, constitutional and institutional concerns." Supreme Court Won't Decide Transgender Teen's Challenge To Bathroom Policy By Bill Chappell • Mar 6, 2017 In a reversal, the Supreme Court will not decide Gavin Grimm's lawsuit over a school policy that requires students to use the bathroom corresponding to their biological sex. The court was scheduled to hear the case this month. Tribe Reportedly Files Legal Challenge To Dakota Access Pipeline By Bill Chappell • Feb 9, 2017 With the Dakota Access Pipeline now cleared to cross under a reservoir in the Missouri River, one of the two Native American tribes fighting the pipeline has filed a legal challenge to the plan, according to the Associated Press.

When Will They See?
Lord, when will the world see?
How can they not know
Of Your loving care?
Why are they so blind?
Can't they just let go
And give all to You?
Don't they want an eternal life
So wonderful, so awesome
It is beyond comprehension?
When will they understand
All belongs to you?
Why do they continue
Rushing headlong into destruction?
My Lord, my heart is breaking
As those around me
Laugh and revile your followers.
The world thinks we're crazy.
They believe they control
All that happens in their lives.
They continue to sin unconcerned.
And all the while the devil and his hoards
Go about spreading their lies
And grin with pride when one they mislead.
My God, wake those poor souls!
Show them Your glory!
Give them the yearning
For all that is holy!
Help them Father, turn around.
Grab them from hell's horrible grasp!
Bring them into Your kingdom
And bless them with Your wondrous peace!
Show them that by becoming
One of Your believers
They really aren't losing anything
But are gaining their life!

Wow, not even a response on these threads from somebody (SCOTT) from BeFree.
Glad affiliate questions are such a low priority!
May 9th, 2003, 05:00 AM #3
Affiliates are a top priority to us. I personally spend a lot of time working with (and for) you guys.
I'm sorry I missed this post.
It can take 3-4 days for a response from our general affiliate support team. Of course if your question is merchant-specific, you should send the question directly to them.
I believe we had a glitch last weekend on our mail servers. If it's been that long, you might want to resend your request.

How many of you are working out of your home?
Do you do the housecleaning or pay someone to do it?
I had to laugh at myself today.
I have this rationale that since I have a day job still, and am running several branches of business, I need a housekeeper.
Forget trying to get the MEN to do it!
So I need to have my own crew employed.
I really don't like the idea of someone rummaging through my things; so a live person is way down on the list.
I need someone who will just do what I ask them and no more, without complaining about the dirt the dogs and the men bring in.
I have had the greatest success with the crew I have found.
They don't snoop though any drawers, and just work the areas I tell them, and they let me know when they are done so they can get paid for the day. That's fair.
I tried to find someone that would also do the dusting, but haven't yet, I'm sure they are working on it.
These are my star employees:
I would like to introduce you.
This is "Rambo"
And this is "Sponge Bob"
Now I can be a work-at-home mom and still get the house clean! I like this Home Based Business stuff.

A/N: Written in response to a challenge back in January 2008. The topic, of course, was "Opening Day at Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes." And as usual, for form, I am not now, have never been, and will not ever be JK Rowling; I am merely playing in her exquisite sandbox.
Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick.
George Weasley sighed as the second hand made its way around the clock face on the far wall. Seven fifty-four. It was taking its sweet time – ha ha, time – and his patience was beginning to wear thin.
He sat behind the counter, the prominent ticking echoing in his ear as Fred moved restlessly across the shop floor. Arranging, rearranging, constantly moving, Fred was absolutely ready to burst.
Never had they been so ready for something, so awake and alert and alive. Hogwarts Express? Pshh, right. Their family made it a point to give lessons in how not to catch it. Classes? Tardiness was an art form, honed to perfection for maximum effect and minimum punishment. Saturday mornings? Please. They hadn't seen one of those in a centaur's age.
But today? Today was very different. Today, George was up with his alarm – which sounded like a dying jobberknoll, courtesy of Fred – when it went off the first time. At six A.M.
Today, Fred was up with his alarm – sounding like a mating yak, courtesy of George in retaliation for the jobberknoll – when it went off the first time. At six-oh-one.
Today was the first day Fred and George would be opening the doors of their dream to the wizarding public. And they were more than ready.
The shelves were bursting with their products, their inventions, their babies they'd lovingly nursed from abstract ideas into full-fledged jokes and gags. The displays were set up and arranged attractively. Posters of their own advertisements were plastered everywhere – walls, windows, ceiling. The back room was overflowing with more merchandise than either of them was feeling entirely certain about…and that was with enlargement charms in place.
At the end of the counter, Fred let the reusable hangman swing for the fourteenth time – George had counted – since they'd finished their hasty display shuffle twenty minutes earlier. George sighed again, and Fred looked at him.
"Remember where everything is in the back?"
George rolled his eyes and Fred chuckled and added, "Sorry, can't help it."
Both redheads looked over at the clock again, grinning identical grins as it belched and announced, "Let the paying public in, oh brilliant ones!"
George stood up behind the counter and Fred swept his vivid magenta robes behind him as he stepped to the door and asked, "Ready, George?"
"Ready, Fred," came the answer, and Fred flicked his wand at the door, which unlocked and propped itself open.
Banners unfurled from the overhang, declaring, "GRAND OPENING TODAY!" Another inside the shop, on the back wall behind the counter, announced the same, both banners spitting out confetti simultaneously. The twins stood expectantly in their respective places, but nothing happened.
This was not how it was supposed to go. Fred stared out the empty doorway, unable to compute the shocking lack of customers. Where was everybody?
"You know, Fred," began George slowly, "I don't think we considered that most of our client base is still at Hogwarts."
Understanding dawned on Fred's face before George had finished speaking, then moved into a frown.
"Of course, but even so…"
"You'd think we'd have more people in here," George finished.
Fred nodded and turned away from the open door to look at George. "Maybe we ought to…"
He trailed off as he heard the door mat roll open and announce, "Welcome!" The door mat only did that if someone passed through the doorway.
Grinning now, Fred spun back around and boomed out, "Welcome to Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes!"
Three women had stepped inside and were looking around curiously, soon joined by several other people. The twins glanced at each other, barely able to suppress the urge to jump up and down with glee, and began to offer their assistance.
Before he knew it, George looked up at the clock to see four hours had passed. It belched noon loudly as he watched, startling a group of people near it. George laughed out loud and glanced around the shop.
It was jammed wall-to-wall with people, and had been since those first three women had come in. There were small children with several of the customers, siblings to many of their Hogwarts-aged client base. They were absolutely fascinated with the shop – Fred had found himself restocking the bins of trick wands and the barrel full of Canary Creams twice each before noon.
But the adults were the big surprise. They selected and purchased carefully, but generously. Cedric Diggory's death – regardless of how or who or why – wasn't an easy thing to fathom, to accept, and many of the parents now in the shop knew that the current school atmosphere just couldn't be conducive to emotionally volatile teenagers, regardless of what The Prophet reported. Their children were sending increasingly sporadic and sparse letters.
Parents had also spent the previous summer watching their unhappy children mope listlessly about, unable to easily come to grips with the death of someone so close to their own age. Coupled with the change in writing habits – and not wanting a repeat of the previous summer - parents felt the need to do something, to act.
So the twins found their products disappearing from the shelves far more quickly than either of them could have imagined. The most popular items after the wands and Canary Creams were the daydream charms and the Wild-Fire Whiz-Bangs. They were running low on their basic blaze boxes and there were two pygmy puffs left in the cage when the clock belched noon.
As George met Fred's eyes from across the room, he grinned. This is what it's all about, Freddy.
Fred nodded at him with that weird twin telepathy, a gleam in his eye. This is what it's all about, brother mine. He turned then at a whoosh of wings.
The post arrived in front of George; eighteen owls lined up on the counter, hooting at him in the midst of the noisy shop for ten full seconds before he leapt into action, relieving them of their letters and sending them off. With a wave of his wand, the letters marched themselves into the back room as he went back to ringing up customers.
The next time they noticed the clock, it was belching out, "Five minutes to closing!" There were still twelve people in the shop, and Fred was racing around, helping each of them to find what they needed and directing them to George at the counter.
Fred found himself ushering the last person out the door just as the clock belched out, "Go home and make tea!" He swung the door closed and aimed his wand, locking it and drawing the blinds before turning to face the shop.
Looking around, he could scarcely believe his eyes. The bins along the floor were empty save for one trick wand. The barrel of Canary Creams was empty yet again and the door of the equally empty pygmy puff cage hung open drunkenly. Two of the wall posters had fallen down and been trampled and the grand opening banner behind the counter was skewed to one side.
The daydream charms were mostly gone; a few left here and there were scattered along their shelf amongst random boxes of self-inking quills. Turning toward the counter, Fred watched a lone reusable hangman hoist himself up over the counter ledge and march resolutely back to his display, where someone had left the word arse spelled out perfectly.
The twins looked at each other then; Fred's robes were turned halfway around and both his chin and left cheek were smudged with dirt. George stared at him, and Fred stared back – George's robes were perfectly fine. But his hair was sticking straight up in several places where he'd tugged at it throughout the day, and Fred was pretty sure that was another reusable hangman nestled asleep in the middle of it.
After a few moments of staring, they said in perfect unison, "We need an assistant." And bursting into twin shouts of laughter, they emptied the register and began counting their profits.
I hope you enjoyed! Please let me know either way!

Josie Landers Creates Her Own Cosplay for Anime St.Louis
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
While most people watch their favorite characters on television or read about them in books, junior Josie Landers enjoys becoming them. For the past four years, Landers has been creating her own costumes for her favorite characters and wearing them to conventions, which is a hobby known as cosplaying. This coming May, Landers and a group of her friends will be creating their own costumes for a big convention, Anime St.Louis.
"I think it's just fun to pretend to be in that world," Landers said. "Some people get really into it and act like the characters that they are dressed as. It's fun to put a costume together and see other people there cosplaying the same thing you are."
Although Landers began creating costumes for conventions four years ago, she has always had a love for sewing. She has been making her own costumes for Halloween since she was a kid. Her skills have developed over the years, and now, she is helping her friends create their costumes in addition to creating her own.
"We're all dressing up as characters from Star Wars: The Force Awakens because we like the movie a lot, and if we are hanging out, it's our go-to movie to watch," junior Emma Coser said. "Josie is helping me with the sewing because I don't know how to sew and she's also helping me make the staff for my Rey costume."
Landers will be cosplaying as two different characters at the convention. On the first two days, she will be going as General Hux, and on the final day, she will be Ashley Brown from one of her favorite video games, Until Dawn. Landers started working on her costumes in January and plans on spending the next two months finishing them. Her costumes are a combination of pieces found and bought from online shops such as Etsy and handmade props and clothing.
"It's just a fun experience," Landers said. "You get to run around and have fun with your friends and meet a lot of people. It's also great when famous people that you meet compliment you on the outfit that you worked hard on."
Anime St.Louis will take place from May 12-14 at the St.Charles Convention Center. There will be booths showcasing artists work such as drawings, comics, posters, and figurines. Dressing up is not required, but attendees are encouraged to join in on the fun and get a costume together.
"It's really fun to get together, and Josie showed us a lot of tricks on how to sew and where to go to buy stuff for it," junior Bernadette Kornberger said. "It's cool to see the intricate outfits that other people have spent hundreds of hours making themselves."

Thursday, January 8
Yeah, it doesn't get much more mobile then this. Blogging on the plane! Well, I've watched two movies on my trip* and a couple episodes of scrubs but I'm finally almost to Vegas. Flying south out of Denver is just amazing. It's night time, but I can still see all the snowy mountains by the moonlight from the window of the plane. Above the cloud lines, I can make out ski slopes that are there for day and some still open for night skiing.
This really is beautiful. I've never seen mountains like this anywhere, on the east coast, in movies, on pictures or post cards. I only wish I could get a picture from the window of what I see.
Colorado, you are on my list of places I must go to play in the terrain park on my board!! Next, looking forward to seeing the lights of the Vegas strip! Then some serious r & r is in order before a long day at CES tomorrow!
Oh yeah, one cool note.... It would seem that the 2009 stewardess of the year for all airlines is working my flight. Neat!
