The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Families began migrating abroad in enormous numbers because of the political and religious discontent in England. Often faced with persecution and starvation in England, the possibilities of the New World attracted many English people. Although the ocean trips took many lives, those who did get to North America were instrumental in building the necessary groundwork for what would become for new powerful nations. Some of the first immigrants to cross the Atlantic and come to North America bore the name Donnatt, or a variant listed above:

Chicago Bulls ink first-ever sponsorship with a European company
Author: Chicago Business Journal
Address: http://www.bizjournals.com/chicago/news/2015/10/06/chicago-bulls-ink-first-ever-sponsorship-with.html
Published: 05.10.2015
The Bulls have signed their first-ever sponsorship deal with a European company, Cinkciarz, a Poland-based online currency exchange that is said to be one of the fastest-growing companies in Europe.
Cinkciarz is a member of SWIFT, a member-owned cooperative that includes some of the world's largest banks and financial institutions.
Maybe you weren't expecting a Bulls sponsorship with a Polish currency exchange. But in the grand scheme of things it makes sense when you consider that Chicago is home to the largest Polish community outside of Poland.
And Marcin Pioro, CEO of Cinkciarz, sees similarities between his company and the Bulls:
"The team is a pop culture icon, a symbol of success and reflects the spirit of sports competition. We share common values. These are persistence, diligence and engagement."
Details of the long-term marketing deal were not announced, but Cinkciarz will become the presenting partner of the three Bulls game-related video features posted on team social media channels — BullsTV Game Preview, BullsTV Recap and Inside the Locker Room.

Tim McGaw and Faith Hill are not getting a divorce.
Gossip Cop reports that both McGraw's and Hill's reps have denied the rumors that began last week when the National Enquirer printed a story about the couple's alleged $135 million divorce. The tabloid claimed the singers' relationship had hit "rock bottom amid furious clashes and suspected infidelities."
Sources reportedly told the Enquirer that Hill accused her husband of having "sexual chemistry" with Taylor Swift, with whom McGraw toured in the beginning of her career, and that McGraw had grown tired and was "threatening to walk."
Gossip Cop, however, claims there is no evidence that the couple is considering ending their 17-year marriage or that they have visited lawyers to even discuss it. They claim the Enquirer's "insider" information was mostly fabricated and suggested the tabloid begin doing some fact checking. According to McGraw's rep the claims are "totally false and ridiculous."

Creating a Safer OAuth User-Experience
The amount of personal data stored online is growing every day. But what if a user needs to do something with that data? Perhaps a user wants to use a photo stored with one web service at another web service that creates prints. Downloading the photo and then uploading it to another site may be too much friction for a user. Many web services are implementing theOAuth protocol to solve the problem.
The OAuth protocol describes a way for a web server to establish a relationship with client services (consumers). Consumers can then ask users for authorization to access their information maintained by the web server. The user authenticates directly to the web server and never reveals their actual credentials to the consumer.
Although the OAuth protocol provides a great authorization framework, a lot of specifics are left to the implementer. In an effort to create a safer user-experience, I have written a paper that provides recommendations for the web server and consumer that can be used to protect user data and reduce the amount of trust required between parties so that more relationships can be safely formed. Even if you can't implement all of the recommendations, this paper will help you understand your risks.

AN icy vortex of Arctic air pushed deadly wind chills and heavy snow into much of the US Midwest with meteorologists saying at least 32 states were in its path over the coming days as it moves south and east.
Even the northern tier of winter-hardy states and cities like Minnesota, Chicago and Milwaukee called off school for Monday as the country braced for wind chill temperatures down to minus 51 degrees Celsius and colder.
It was the first time in 17 years that Minnesota schools have been closed due to snow and dangerously low temperatures, reports said.
Governor Mark Dayton ordered the closings.
"Temperatures are deadly," warned Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard in broadcast remarks. Snow fell in his state of Indiana on Sunday at the rate of 5 centimetres an hour, media reports said.
In Green Bay, Wisconsin, tens of thousands of fans braved minus-26-degree wind chill temperatures to watch a key football playoff game between the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco 49ers. Despite the Green Bay team having an apparent weather advantage, the 49ers won 23-20.
With the mercury expected to drop down to minus 44C through the night, food stands at Lambeau Field in Green Bay were offering free coffee and hot chocolate to keep fans warm. There were worries that beer would freeze in the open air stadium, CNN reported.
"Life-threatening wind chill," the National Weather Service warned.
"The coldest temperatures in almost two decades will spread into the northern and central US ... behind an Arctic cold front," the government forecaster said.
Before the "polar vortex" - as it's being called by meteorologists - hits the east and south, rain was expected to fall in those regions and be turned into thick ice when temperatures plunge into the minus-20C range on Tuesday.
The normally mild-temperature city of Nashville, Tennessee, has delayed by a day the post-holiday school start until Wednesday.
"Dangerously low temperatures forecast for Tuesday morning a concern for student safety," the school system said.
Flash freezes after the rain and blizzard conditions were expected from Tennessee to Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky and Pennsylvania, the private forecaster AccuWeather said.
At least 13 people have died due to blizzard-like conditions and record cold over past days, most of them from traffic accidents in Michigan, Illinois, Kentucky and Indiana.
Broadcasters warned that frost bite could set in within just five minutes in the harsh conditions.
The weather caused cancellation of 3,467 flights and delays in another 11,191, according to the flight tracker FlightAware.com.
Overall, around 149 million people - about half the US population - were expected to be in the grip of the Arctic chill by Monday and Tuesday, meteorologists said.

Krugman sez: borrow more, tax more, and spend spend spend your way to economic growth!
Where's your Nobel, ya cunts?
Krugman is correct, positive nominal growth will likely result. Unfortunately, the real growth will be negative.
The "positive nominal growth" you describe is defined by the media as a recovery, which is further reason to mute all financial discussion and get back to the real problems we have, like global warming-climate change. Sheeple aren't supposed to participate in real things, just do as told and bleat only to designated state therapists who will explain that the pain they feel is not real and shameful. Accept program, accept where fate has placed you. Don't raise eyes to superiors.
Public, Private, & Non-Profit Welfare: Eunuchs & Their Queens
Labor, Capital, Elderly, & Children do not see me as homeless, but they do see that each event horizon in the middle class observes me as homeless, so you go right ahead and stop me from going to work, by herding me into a line, to get a ticket, to get into a line, to get a wrist band, to get a shelter night, to stand in line, to get more shelter nights, so I can stand in line to get laundry, clothing, and housing vouchers, so I can get the EDD hierarchy to grant me certified passage to a low wage job that will not pay the rent, so I have to go through the next circle of delays and, so on, while you throw teenage church girls at me in yoga pants, like I am the eunuch, so you can all justify your jobs, shorting out the real economy with make-work delays.
Funny, my job is to short the short, to restore the economy, which means you lose either way, unless you want to get a real job, and you are not going to like what comes next.
Alright. Who is in charge of this economy? Morons?
When did the human race turn so stupid?
Think of the knowlege humans have lost in this age of pseudo enlightenment. Who knows how to grow their own food and truly take care of themselves? Not many.
People have lost the ability to learn from their mistakes. We keep repeating the same stupid mistakes over and over again and we expect different results! Holy SHIT! We dont deserve to live!
Most won't.
When did the human race turn so stupid?
Try 1776, July, 4th.
Try 1949,October,1st.
Alas, alas, alas, quadruple alas.
A date which will live in infamationalisiticalizationalism.
There are no mistakes, there are only competing narratives about what an event says about the moral superiority of certain superior groups. Fretting over mistakes might lead to unapproved considerations. Do your duty as told, superiors are counting on you to make world better place. Assume calm submissive demeanor.

Self employment is one way to externalize costs.
It is been found out that 'american' economics would lead people to pay to work.
It has already been happening under different ways.
When working as an employee, the facilities are rented to the employee. And priced in. The use of facilities is included in the wage, one way or another.
With self employment, the contracted now offers the contracting side an opportunity to externalize the cost of building rent. In other words, the contracted now pays to get access to the job.
'American' propagandists like this author wont emphasize this point though.
Another point is that unsurprisingly, while pimping out competition, this 'american' forgets one dimension of competition: emulation.
That is one cause to mass people around: to get a competitive environment through sheer numbers.
Just ask an 'american' manager to explain how grey matter must be concentrated to get results.
More to tell about that. USeless as 'americans' are trapped in 'americanism' The jaws of 'americanism' are a steel trap.
Selective perception, offuscation, and denial are the Chinese citizenism ways to externalize blame.
It is been founding out that Chinese citizenism economics will did leading of Tibetan people to self-immolate in honor of glorification of Chinese Communautist Party.
Chinese Communautist Ministry of Truth propagandists like this Chinese citizenism citizen wont emphasiscationizing this on the point though.
Another point is that unsurprisingly, while pimping out the propagandizedness of speeching means, this Chinese citizenism 'hypocritizen' forgets one dimension of defecation: mass excretion.
That is one cause to mass people along roadsides: to get an excretive environment through sheer numbers.
Just ask a Chinese citizenism 'citizen' manager to explain how brown matter must be concentrated to get results.
More to smell about that. Shameless as Chinese citizenism 'citizens' are highly avoidant of 'flush toiletism'. The holes of Chinese 'shitizenism' are a bamboo finger trap.
Can I get a bid on a Margaretta Machine? Anyone?
There are three empty strip malls within 20 miles of my home, and they are in the process of building three new ones.
That's a major WTF ?????????????? right there.
There's an empty strip mall near me, the last hold out tenant was a deli who recently closed. The complex is now completely empty and for sale with a asking price of..... 3 Milion dollarsl!!!.. bwahaha.
Funny that author Charles Hugh-Smith, in this article on 'Pursuing Opportunities of the Past' ...
An article about stupid, worn-out business models ...
At the end of his article he is trying to sell ...
A book! Ha! A friggin' book!
« My new book ... 10 % to 20 % discounts ... »
A book! A thing that almost nobody buys or reads anymore ... Talk about 'Pursuing Opportunities of the Past' ... !

Le Pink & Co.
- Location: Los Angeles, CA
- Website: lepink.net
Sometimes Calgon just isn't enough to take you away. Sure, plain old Ivory is a fantastic daily soap, and there a plenty of excellent organic and scent free bathing and beauty products for your everyday needs. But what about when you want to treat yourself something special and relax, rejuvenate, and treat your skin to something a bit more luxurious?
Le Pink & Co. originally began as an apothecary in Echo Park's Chicken Corner, but has moved to a more visible location smack dab in the middle of Silver Lake's Sunset Junction.
The shop's vintage bent is apparent from the get go, with its hand lettered signage and striped awning, hinting of an age when proper ladies perfumed and powdered while dapper gents applied tonics and talc before heading out on the town...
"We carry a lot of stuff from lesser-known companies that aren't big enough to be sold in Sephora," says owner Laura Walden. "Or, maybe don't want to be sold in Sephora."
Vintage era photos, Avon products and beauty supplies play nice with the candy jars and apothecary bottles decorating the store, distinguishing itself from their chain counterparts. And there's even a small selection of old timey candies in the back to pamper your sweet tooth, and the staff offers full facial and waxing services.

Pantech Chairman to Step Down, Company Plans Furloughs
Article Comments
While not all that interesting...
can't really say it's a surprise. Pantech's smartphones are some of the worst on the market. They make a decent flip phone but that's about it. They have a terrible rep and have yet to release a device that has come close to making that better at all, in fact I would say nearly every device they release only makes them worse.

The bittersweet Instruction
Roman Conference on Summorum Pontificum
Conference speakers:
2 comments:
I don't understand why you use the expression "bittersweet" in refering to the Instruction.
Granted, it could be much stronger (especially regarding seminaries), but it is a totally positive intstruction in general, and does nothing bu anger the liberals and the bishops.
So in that regard, it is good.
The little tiny man who is Cardinal Lloverda is no friend to Catholic traditionalists or to the Tridentine Latin Mass, so it is no surprise if he were to pull out of his anticipated role as main celebratnt of Pontifical High Mass at the Altar of the Chair in St. Peter's.
He is, very much of the same type as the aged....and now little heard from....Cardinal Arinze who was violently against the Tridentine Latin Mass and Catholic tradition, but who was all for a so-called "reform of the reform", whereby the worthless Novus Ordo Mass was somehow going to be "reformed" into a ceremony more resembling Catholic than it's preseently pseudo-Lutheran form of today.
Don't ever make the mistake of thinking that Cardinal Lloverda is a friend of Catholic tradition or traditionalists!

Anon said "The little tiny man who is Cardinal Lloverda is no friend to Catholic traditionalists or to the Tridentine Latin Mass". Sorry, Anon, this is just not true. Cardinal Canizares certainly fails to understand what the traditional liturgical really is about but he is not hostile to it. It is worth remembering that he housed two conferences on the TLM and training sessions in the very facilities of the Archdiocese of Toledo, when he was still the local ordinary.

Here's What $3,000-A-Month Rent Really Gets You In New York City
Courtesy of ZillowIt's no surprise that rent in New York City is insanely high, and there are plenty of reasons why.
According to a report in The Wall Street Journal, new research from Reis Inc. says that the average NYC monthly rent has officially climbed to $3,017 (Reis defines the city as Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx, excluding Staten Island).
To put that in perspective, the average rent in the rest of America is just over $1,000 per month.
We asked Zillow, a U.S. home and real estate marketplace, to help us find New York apartments currently renting for $3,000-a-month to see what tenants are really getting.
From Manhattan to Queens, here are NYC's "average"-priced apartments.

I called customer service to ask how I could add a cosigner, and they put a hold on my application so I could send another through.
Putting in the same information for myself, and with a cosigner with better credit and income I was denied. Is this a common situation? I am curious why, and the 7-10 business day waiting period for the letter seems ridiculous.

Welcome to the January World-Building Alliance prompt!
For our first prompt here at the World-Building Alliance, we'll be asking you to pick a race (other than ponies, obviously) and write up an origin story for that race. If you're a little confused as to what that means, take a look at the tale of Hearth's Warming Eve for a basic example.
Any other questions on the prompt? PM an Admin and we'll be back to you within the next day or so.
Now, we are a world-building group, so many of the ideas sprung by these prompts can easily turn into quite the long story. However, that said, for the purposes of judging, we'll only be looking at the chapter(s) that total up to 5000 words. But, if enough of you write those long stories, and then finish them, we just might be willing to look over those finished products and come up with a new results post.
So how does one enter their story for this contest? It's quite simple, really. Once you've finished your story and submitted it to FimFic, post here in this thread the following information:
Genre Tags:
Please provide links where necessary.
Now here are the rest of the guidelines and restrictions:
- Deadline is the last day of the month. That will be the final day for submissions. For those of you in different timezones, if it's the final day, make sure to also post what time it is in your time zone.
- Only stories submitted to the site during this month will be accepted. That means your story from August of 2012 won't be accepted.
- Judging will be finished by the end of the first week of the next month. So on the 7th, the judging thread will be up, complete with the final scores for each story. It will also have a description of how the judging works and how the winner is selected. Important stuff for you to know beforehand is that we look at five categories: Plot, Characterization, Mechanics, World-Building and how well it fits with the FiM universe.
- And finally, all site rules are in effect. If you're not quite sure what they are, see link.
Now for the part you're all here for: the prizes.
- The winner gets bragging rights, of course. Additionally, the winner will be placed in a "Prompt Winners" folder. Finally, until the next prompt winner is selected, the current winner will have his/her story as the only story on the group's front page. Plus Wanderer D might randomly promote the story on his blog.
- Second and third place get bragging rights as honorable mentions. Have a nice pat on the back, too!
- Everyone else gets a general, "Thanks for participating!" thingy in the final judging post.
Cheers and happy writing!
~ The World-Building Alliance Admin Team
That's unfortunate. I'd like to participate, but I'll be far too busy with working on my first story to make something...
Interesting challenge... not sure if I could get to 5000 words but I wonder if I could still pull it off. *looks through notes* Here Be Dragons...
How much does 'origin story' entail? Should the story be mainly about the race itself, or can it be a story about the events that actually lead to the existence of the race? (compare: A story where we see the first changelings surfacing vs. a story where a mad doctor creates life, with the changeling only actually appearing during the last few sentences)
As much as this looks interesting, I have to decline joining this challenge. I already have one challenge fic I am working on (a Cadence x Big Mac ship) as well as three other stories, and a 4th that I have outlined but not started.
Still, I shall be following this to see what the participants come up with. This could be both interesting and a valuable source of information.
Hmm...capping myself to 5000 words might be tricky if I get on a roll, but I'm going to give it a shot. Whether or not I actually get my arse up and write the damn thing is a whoooole nother story. If I do, it'll be Sphinxes, for certain.
5000 words? That's my average chapter length...
So what's the catch? Does it have to be a race already seen in the show? Or do we have free reign? When it comes to making shit up, I'm like German industry. You cannot stop me, I can only be contained!
No problem, feel free to join in one of the future prompts when you've got some more spare time
And yes, this should be quite enlightening for those who don't participate as well
Good to know
Feel free to write as much as you want! Just be aware that we'll only be using the first 5k for the purpose of judging
I shall check with my fellow admins at the earliest convenience, and get back to you asap
What a minute...origin story? My story might just qualify But there's no way I can finish the whole thing by January. (I'm not even sure if I can finish it at all )
Dang, I'm planning to work on the world building of a race (they're related to the Windigoes) in the fic I'm currently working after I finish it but I can't make it before the end of the month as my fic is not even halfway through yet. =(
Think I could try my hand at this...
Well, considering that I already have 1000 words detailing reindeer culture around her somewhere, I am fairly sure I can pull something out of my hat.
Oooh, I could do mine on my Japanese Changelings. Yep, I make the Changelings Japanese. Pattoned!
This sounds fun, but I have a question. It might sound like I'm nitpicking, but I actually want to know because I have some origin ideas in mind that might not qualify for the contest.
When you say "other than ponies," how expansive is the category "pony"? Could I write about the origin of the sea ponies (featured in an upcoming picture book but not yet present in the show)? How about the crystal ponies (no explanation for their existence has been given)? How about the Arabians?
They should all be fine
I'd be particularly interested in the Saddle Arabians, for example. I don't think I've ever heard of an explanation for them.
All I have to say is, keep your hooves off mah Cervidae!
Well, the problem is that it'll be a side story/
sequel prequel to my current fic so I'm not working on it until the current story is done. So I can't enter for this month.
Hm... Someone likes Rarity.
Maybe on another month.
I could give it a try ... maybe expand on my Minotaur origin theory, or I could open one of my fantasy books to a random page ... Long chapter writing's never been my forte (as much as I wish it was!).
Oooo! IDEEEAAAAA! (leaves)
Yes! I get to introduce my zombie pony race!
583152 Not exactly, but what about sub-species to a generic zombie pony species? You know, sort of how like an army has the infantry, and within the infantry, there are different types of soldiers?
I've been working on this species for a while, that's all. If not, however, I DO happen to have a backup plan.
The subject's ability to bite was never called into question! Merely that a change in behaviour does not denote a change in species!
The coral snake and the milk snake are almost EXACTLY alike. However, only the coral snake is poisonous and will bite its enemies! That one single action, along with a slight change in the order of the colored bands on its skin are the only things that can tell them apart! This proves that one single behavior can mean a difference in species!
The Coral snake and the Milk Snake are from completely separate families of snake! The Milk snake has merely adapted to capitalise on the Coral snake's infamy!
583232 Also, you don't know me, so how can you worry about me?
This is getting out of hand and off topic...
This is getting out of hand and off topic...
(Side-note: I had to make that image just for you, y'know. Couldn't find one anywhere)
Can we use characters from Crossovers? If so, I have an origin story for the deliciously evil Venom symbiote.
If not, can we use inanimate objects brought to life? I do have a story using a living horde of ponyquinns.
Also, Rarity is best pony. /)
That's a flat No on the inanimate objects being brought to life.
As for crossover species...
We have no major problems with them being present, but the story must feature the origin story of a species that fits in the Ponyverse. Add Venom if you want, but the origin of the symbiote is not what we're after.
Also, Rarity is best pony
Not quite true, but still...
Ah, well he is in Equestria and I do have a story of how he got here, so it all works out. But you make me sad about no ponyquins.
noun /ˈspēsēz/ /-SHēz/
species, plural
A group of living organisms consisting of similar individuals capable of exchanging genes or interbreeding. The species is the principal natural taxonomic unit, ranking below a genus and denoted by a Latin binomial, e.g., Homo sapiens
Same reason for the lack of Zombie Ponies.
Also, to re-iterate, the origin of Venom is not what we're after.
If your story features Venom, so be it. BUT the story must explain the origin of a believable MLP species (e.g. Changelings)
Can I use the origin story as subtly dropped background material that is interwoven with various other headcannon stuff (Cadance origin story which makes sense! yay!) as a part of world building for an adventure fic involving Twilight amongst Reindeer society, or do you want a story whos main focus is the origin of the species, much like the Hearths Warming Eve episode?
Oh good, because I have already churned out 2000 words for the former, and I didn't want to have to start from scratch.
Well, this looks like it might be fun! With such an interesting prompt, I think I might give this contest a spin, but first I'd like to ask some questions, just to make sure I understand the rules..
My first question is: What's the limit for submissions? More specifically, is it against the rules to submit multiple stories, even if each story is about a different race or species? If so, would a participant get disqualified for trying to submit two or more, or would the second submission be ignored?
to pick a race (other than ponies, obviously)
This is the subject of my second set of questions: How broad is this exclusion? Are the following kinds acceptable:
Donkeys, zebras, horses, and other equines?
Crystal ponies?
Golem ponies (i.e. pony equivalents of golems) or other artificial beings?
Pony hybrids or chimeras (e.g. a creature half-pony, half-lion)?
and write up an origin story for that race.
Next, what counts as an "origin" story? For instance, could the story be about how changelings arrived in Equestria, or about how they acquired their features in a just-so story, or about how they conquered a territory and founded a hive, as opposed to describing how their kind arose in the first place? Also, can a story include multiple origin stories - say, one for minotaurs, one for buffalo - so long as the narrative connects them? DrunkFilisoph asked a question like this earlier, but I want to be clearer about what the parameters are.
If you're a little confused as to what that means, take a look at the tale of Hearth's Warming Eve for a basic example.
This does partially answer my question earlier, but taking that as an example, can the origin story be staged as a story-within-a-story as well? To what extent can it be the focus of the story? Could a participant, for instance, write a Daring Do short in which an artefact is given a backstory that coincides with the origin of a species?
Now, we are a world-building group, so many of the ideas sprung by these prompts can easily turn into quite the long story. However, that said, for the purposes of judging, we'll only be looking at the chapter(s) that total up to 5000 words.
Since I've read the other posts, I guess that means that, regardless of length, the maximum any judge will read is the first 5000 words of a long story, and that a submitted story will be judged whether it's incomplete or not. However, this leads into my next point.
But, if enough of you write those long stories, and then finish them, we just might be willing to look over those finished products and come up with a new results post.
I'm not saying this will be done by me, but if a contestant does produce such a story, will it be judged in an independent contest for writers of long stories or not?
Important stuff for you to know beforehand is that we look at five categories: Plot, Characterization, Mechanics, World-Building and how well it fits with the FiM universe.
I get four out of the five categories, supposing that World-Building is about how well you depict the setting and background or develop a feature of the fictional world, but I'm uncertain about Mechanics. I'm guessing it's similar to style and grammar, but just to be sure, I'll ask anyway. What exactly is covered by that category?
Now for the part you're all here for: the prizes.
I'll just be happy to participate. That said, are we required to register for the contest, or do we simply submit?
For now, I think that's all the questions that occur to me. Apologies for bombarding you with so many, but it's just that I like to be clear about what I'm doing, and if others are thinking the same things, it may be for their benefit too.
Thanks in advance!
Submit as many as you want!
If you think you could knock out a half dozen 5k fics in a month, more power to ya!
Alicorns? Nope
Donkeys, zebras, horses, and other equines? Yep
Crystal ponies? See: 582121
Golem ponies (i.e. pony equivalents of golems) or other artificial beings? Yes to Golems, no to living mannequins
Pony hybrids or chimeras (e.g. a creature half-pony, half-lion)? Yep
Yes to all of those origin ideas. It can be the physical origin of the species itself, or the origin of their current government/country/hive/whatever.
Yes to idea of it being Storyception. Feel free to make a Zebra retell the founding of their nation in a fireside story or something similar.
All stories submitted will be judged by their state at the end of the month, up to the aforementioned 5k word limit.
Larger stories, however, will also be entered into a Longfic-specific competition as well. Once they're finished, we'll go over them again. They'll then be judged against other Longfics, regardless of the initial score of the first judging
Mechanics is indeed your ability to dot your eyes and cross your tees. Don't worry, you've only got to impress three highly successful authors and two well-known critics with your writing
And thanks for the questions! We'll be sure to try and address some of these points the next time we put up a prompt.

Police say an Augusta man was stabbed in the leg during a robbery Saturday morning.
About 1:15 a.m., Jerry Strickland said he was escorting a woman home from a downtown bar when he was attacked by a man near the corner of Tenth Street and Walton Way, according to a Richmond County Sheriff's Office incident report.
Strickland said his jacket and wallet, which contained $41, were stolen during the altercation. Deputies found Strickland with cuts on his face and a stab wound to his left leg.
Strickland was taken to Georgia Regents Medical Center to be treated for his injuries. He was unable to provide a description of the suspect.

Netanyahu's 'No Freeze in Jerusalem' Declarations Are Hollow
Obama realizes PM's Jerusalem rhetoric is necessary in order to keep his coalition together.
The prime minister's response Thursday on Channel 2 that "there will be no freeze [in construction] in Jerusalem," is like Bill Clinton's "I did not have sex with that woman."
Benjamin Netanyahu did not insist this time that he will continue construction in Ramat Shlomo, Gilo and Har Homa - something he is leaving for Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman to do.
Based on the speeches the two gave on Independence Day, Jerusalem Day came early this year.
The two were aware that the moment they were swearing that "united Jerusalem" would never be divided, Barack Obama's envoys were packing their bags for a visit to the region.
The Israelis knew that special envoy George Mitchell was not being sent to the eternal capital just to hear Netanyahu insist on developing the real estate business in East Jerusalem.
Mitchell put up with a lot on his way to a peace agreement in Northern Ireland and did not come here to nail shut the coffin of the peace process. He does not want to bury Israel's relations with the White House.
The signs were thick Thursday that behind the proclamations of a "unified Jerusalem," a quiet accord was in the works with the Americans. As long as the Jews are not building in Sheikh Jarrah and Ramat Shlomo, Obama and his aides don't care what the Jews say about a construction freeze in Arab parts of the city.
In Washington they realized that if Netanyahu wants to preserve his coalition, he can't allow any doubts about the "integrity of Jerusalem." As far as the Americans are concerned, let Netanyahu run around telling everyone that Jerusalem is no different than Tel Aviv. The key thing is that the Palestinians don't read in the paper that the interior minister approved new construction in the Holy City.
Several months ago Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas told Defense Minister Ehud Barak that he is willing to do without a public pronouncement on a construction freeze in Jerusalem. He said he was willing to make do with a discreet promise to that effect by the defense minister.
He is still waiting for an answer. If Obama can get Abbas to come down from the tree he climbed up - as Netanyahu likes to say - the prime minister needs to help out with a ladder: a gentleman's agreement that the Israeli government will not publish any more tenders for the construction of Jewish neighborhoods in East Jerusalem, at least until the end of the coming round of talks.

Chameleon Club Presents...
Stolen Babies, New Years Day, Lifesblood, 1 echo 1
Chameleon Club
223 North Water Street
Lancaster, PA, 17603
This event is all ages
Otep got their start in late 2000, when singer/band namesake Otep Shamaya brought her Marilyn Manson-meets-Kim Gordon style of singing to a crew of musicians known only as Rob, Moke, and eViL j. The foursome began gigging around Los Angeles and scored a deal with Capitol solely on the strength of their live show (they'd not yet recorded a demo), releasing the Jihad EP the following year. Rumors of cannibalism and dabbling in the mystical arts helped add to their mysterious image, and they found themselves being complimented by the likes of Marilyn Manson himself for their antics. Their eighth live show ever was at 2001's Ozzfest, and Otep stepped back into the studio with Terry Date at the tail end of the year to record their full-length debut, Sevas Tra, which saw the light of day in the summer of 2002. That summer they again joined up with the Ozzfest tour, gaining a prime spot on the second stage. In 2004 the group released its sophomore effort, House of Secrets. Working with producer Dave Fortman (Evanescence, Mudvayne), Otep followed up three years later with The_Ascension and supported it on spring 2007 dates with Static-X.
Stolen Babies formed from a 12+ member high school performance troupe named the Fratellis; the band takes its name from one of the skits performed by the group during this period (written by Dominique Persi, who handled the theatrical and performance-art aspect of the group). Stolen Babies released their first Demo CD in 2002 through their own label, No Comment Records.
Among the band's many musical influences are groups such as Oingo Boingo, Mr. Bungle, and Fishbone (with whom Gil Sharone has performed). Stolen Babies are known for their on-stage theatrics and energetic performances, filled with props and Gorey-esque backdrops, all made by the various members. Except for the earliest demo, each album has featured artwork by indie comic artist Crab Scrambly.
New Years Day formed in 2005 after bassist Adam Lohrbach left the band Home Grown. Home Grown's final EP, 2004's When it All Comes Down, had diverged from the band's previous style of humorous pop punk and incorporated many emotional elements that Lohrbach carried over into New Years Day. Meeting with vocalist Ashley Costello and guitarist/keyboardist Keith Drover, the three began rehearsing songs that Costello and Lorhbach had written. These songs were heavily influenced by the members' shared emotional experiences, as Lohrbach and Costello had both recently been through difficult relationship break-ups.
The group soon added guitarist Mike Schoolden (formerly of Wakefield) and drummer Russell Dixon and took the name New Years Day.
The band began building a reputation through promotion and posting songs on the MySpace social networking website, and were featured on the MySpace Records Volume 1 compilation CD and in the soundtrack of the video game Saints Row. After considering an offer from the Pete Wentz-run Decaydance Records label, the band signed to TVT Records and released a debut self-titled EP in 2006. Originally referred to as the Razor EP, it was primarily a digital release made available through download services such as iTunes, though CD copies were also available at the band's performances. They also performed at the South by Southwest music festival that same year.
From 2006–2007 New Years Day self-financed and self-produced their debut album My Dear, recorded over an eight-month period at the home of producer Eugene Perreras.[3] The album was released on May 8, 2007 and includes collaborations with members of Reel Big Fish and Motion City Soundtrack. The band's debut music video for the lead single "I Was Right" won an MTVU "Freshman Face" poll and was added to the channel's playlist.
The band started writing new material in early 2009. Around September 2009, NYD posted two new songs on their MySpace page.[8] When asked about a new EP, vocalist Ashley Costello said, "The EP is in its demo phase right now and we are still writing for it and recording it at the same time. The EP should be out in the spring of 2010."
On March 12, 2010, Alternative Press announced that New Year's Day have been added on the Warped Tour's summer dates. New Year's Day released their Japanese debut album called "Headlines & Headstones" on July 2nd, 2010 under Spinning Inc. The album contains music from their first EP, their first LP "My Dear", a Lady Gaga cover and new songs from their upcoming 2nd full-length US album.

SAN JOSE — San Jose State's Travis Johnson was named one of four Capital One Academic All-District 8 defensive linemen.
Johnson, the active career leader in sacks among Football Bowl Subdivision players with 30.0, met the nomination criteria by possessing a minimum grade-point average of 3.30, having at least one year at SJSU and being an important member of the Spartans team.
The senior kinesiology major from The King's Academy-Sunnyvale is in the top 10 in the country in both tackles for loss with 17.0 and sacks with 11.0. His 30 career sacks ties the SJSU and Western Athletic Conference career records.
The Spartans have three games left on their regular season schedule and a potential bowl game to give him more opportunities to take sole possession of those records.
Johnson advances to the national ballot with an opportunity to be named an Academic All-American. He's one of 32 players on the ballot.
Carr has experienced neck soreness after taking a hit to the head in the Spartans' win over Idaho. He did not suffer a concussion. Compounding the issue is that Carr has dealt with a cold this week. He did not practice Thursday and figures to be a game-time decision.
"We're going to make sure he's OK," MacIntyre said. "He didn't have a concussion, but you just want to make sure there's nothing there. It's not worth the chance. Right now, we feel like he can go. We'll take him and we'll see how he's feeling game day."
Ogburn has missed the past three games with a strained hamstring, suffered against Utah State. He travelled and suited up against Idaho, but didn't see action. He was available in an emergency situation in that game.
"We're taking him and if he keeps feeling good, he'll get some playing time," MacIntyre said.
Ogburn's absence may be most noticeable on special teams.
"His best attribute is kickoff coverage and punt coverage," MacIntyre said of his starting cornerback. "He's a great corner, but he's a difference maker (in special teams). I don't know if I'd like to run him down on hopefully a few kickoffs and a few punts too many times."

Right now i a full-time student at San Diego State University but i am looking to change schools because its so hard to get classes i need. I was thinking of going to National University which ive heard mixed reviews about to get my BA. Anyways, I was wondering if any business or economics degree looks okay to employers for this type of job. Also, in the meantime i need to gain some experience to help me get into this field. Where should i start?

The Accounting, Finance major degrees are the more specialized ones and easier to find positions; they will keep you on that path though.

Im sure youve been enjoying the hilarious news accounts of the bang-up job turned in by the foxes guarding the recovery.gov henhouse.
Im all a quiver anticipating the effectiveness of those people whenever they commence telling me what proctologist is coated less than my mandatory Govern-care program.
Superior thing our govt presently has loads of go through proctologing the taxpayer. Wait is quivering a pre-existing condition
Through the Boston Globe these days came a report that tracked a part of your 3.nine billion in stimulus dough sucked through the federal teat from the state of Massachusetts.
You know back again if the president and congressional republicans and democrats arrived up with that superb intend to take as considerably of the revenue as you possibly can to make work opportunities and resolve the market
On top of that on the state acquiring 1.five million to rehab a lighthouse on an uninhabited island off Cape Cod repairing the lighthouse shed and keepers dwelling to produce it accessible to the public who can only achieve it by boat the University of Massachusetts at Boston carved out a 95000 bit of the pie to study pollen samples from your Viking era in Iceland. Buy arctic ruby oil
This stimulus effort at the very least constructed employment properly a person task. The National Science Foundations grant did bring on the employing of the lab assistant accountable for counting pollen grains collected from farms in Iceland.
They are really upon all learning the position the arctic natural environment played while in the evolution of civic existence all through the Viking Age. Curse you Albjorn Gore
Not happy to only identify what developed Folkmar sneeze The Globe reviews that academic researchers in Massachusetts also have benefited from stimulus funding for projects that include things like studying circadian clocks of monarch butterflies researching tusks of the Narwhal whale inside Arctic and acquiring a colony of robotic bees.
Wherever is a investigate regarding how to hearth as Fred Reed calls them 535 commoditized temple monkeys pawing with the ruins of America searching for bribes
School districts in Massachusetts spent their 100 free dough on window blinds photocopiers and even a dishwasher for 1 haute cafeteria.
But the most beneficial utilization of stimulus funds was little doubt the 123000 that can arm the Spirit of Boston with an alarm surveillance devices together with a host of top-secret safety measures to protect a large celebration boat that offers jaunts across the harbor – or haa-bah if youre from these sections.
I hear Al Qaeda would just kill for your seasonal lobster lunch cruise.
In actual fact the organization that owns the Spirit of Boston Enjoyment Cruises Inc. obtained nearly a million dollars from the Federal Emergency Administration Company FEMA to protect ships in Philadelphia Washington D.C. Norfolk and Chicago from beer cruise jihads.
Massachusetts has also spent more than 100000 of stimulus money to erect 66 street indicators – at highway construction internet sites which might be becoming funded by stimulus funds.
However the paragraph within the World write-up that spoke loudest was the one that pointed to your rationale the stimulus strategy has lots of detractors- Critics say there was a lot of stress on federal government officials to inject funds to the economic system speedily while not regard to no matter if the tasks would really be valuable.
Oh yeah carry on that health and wellbeing treatment program.

'Montrose Ruby' was introduced by Nancy Goodwin at Montrose Nursery in North Carolina in the mid 1980s. It was the result of a cross between Heuchera americana 'Dale's Strain' and H. 'Palace Purple.' Virtually all of the newer purple-leaved hybrids are descended from 'Montrose Ruby.' Some seed grown plants have been distributed under this name and are inferior to the original type. Real 'Montrose Ruby' is a glowing red-purple and makes a vigorous, enduring plant for dry shade.

Project Safe Campus, an initiative to promote safe and responsible behavior among Southeastern Louisiana University students, is featuring programs designed for students by students on issues such as tobacco, OxyContin, and drug use and pregnancy.
The programs, created by Southeastern heath studies graduate students, are among a series of Project Safe Campus presentations scheduled in March. Project Safe Campus is sponsored by the Division of Student Affairs with the goal of encouraging students to be smart and be safe.
Ralph Wood, an assistant professor in Southeasterns kinesiology and health studies department, said his graduate level Drug Education Programming class was approached about partnering with Project Safe Campus by Carol Magendie, assistant to the vice president for student affairs. Since giving students hands-on experience in teaching strategies is a staple of his class, Wood said devising presentations on safety issues for students was a good fit. The course is taken by students earning a masters degree in health and kinesiology with a concentration in health studies.
The students came up with the topics and are diligently putting the information together, Wood said. He said they plan to use a variety of presentation styles from PowerPoint to puppetry to convey the information.
The first of three teams of students will present Tobacco: The Straight Facts on March 9 in the War Memorial Student Union Ballroom. On March 16, also in the ballroom, a second student team will give details on OxyContin -- Friend or Foe. On March 23 in the unions Southeastern Room (room 223) the final team will talk about Drug Use and Pregnancy: Giving Your Unborn Child a Chance. All presentations begin at 6 p.m.
Also during March, Project Safe Campus will sponsor Eating Disorders vs. Healthy Choices at 6:30 p.m. March 18; For Males Only Leadership or Violence by guest speaker Don McPherson at 6 p.m. March 29; and For Parents Only the Drugs of Todays Youth, a program also sponsored by the 21st Judicial District Court and North Oaks Health System, at 6:30 p.m. March 30. The programs will all take place in the Student Union Theatre.
Wood said two other student teams are developing programs for Southeastern athletes.
Project Safe Campus programs are free and open to the public. For additional information, contact Magendie at

So you want to start your own antiques, art or collectibles business? And you're sure you have what it takes. After all, you've been collecting those antique yo-yos and turn-of-the-century (that's turn of the 20th century) bikes forever. You know a quality chiffonier when you see it. You live, breathe and talk antiques.
Now all you have to do is sell them. Here are three steps you need to take.
1. Study the competition
Successful antiques dealers usually begin modestly with their own collection and a few newly purchased items. But you need to check out dealers that are moving merchandise and have a steady clientele. How do they display their items? What's their pricing like? Do they have fewer, choice pieces, or do they cram as many antiques and collectibles they can into their space?
By doing this, you can avoid costly trial and error.
2. Head to the county courthouse
It's boring, but true. When you're starting up an antiques business—any business, for that matter—there's a lot of nitty-gritty and piles of forms.
You will be subject to government regulations just as any other retailer is. That means business licenses must be purchased, and zoning laws must be understood and followed. Most new businesses will need a state sales-tax reporting number, a federal ID number and employee payroll-tax numbers for unemployment tax, state-tax withholding, federal-tax withholding and others.
Your county courthouse or administrative building has information on zoning and business licenses. You don't want to open up only to be closed down because of violations. A local CPA can help you with the payroll and sales-tax IDs.
3. Keep overhead low
While thinking big is fun, it might be better starting small.
I have clients that started selling antiques in their homes that have the exposure for retail attraction and proper zoning. This is a low-overhead way to begin if your spouse can put up with the distractions that buyers and browsers bring. Others have opened stores in shopping centers and on Main Street. The rent and additional expenses make for higher overhead, and I caution against doing this at first because of the length of lease requirements and the outlay of money for inventory.
Another good low-overhead method for selling antiques is the antiques mall. We have several in our area that rent space to antiques dealers, set minimum prices, make the sales, collect and remit the sales tax and pay the dealer on a regular basis.
Don't forget consignment sales. An established dealer will sell your antiques on consignment. There is no overhead, but the established dealer will charge a commission.
My favorite and least-expensive way for dealers to sell their antiques is on the WorthPoint site. The antiques dealer has worldwide exposure to buyers, can set minimums and receives payment promptly.
Try it. You'll like it.

Good notes posted by eebyRSS feed
Avoiding duplicate results when you do a join
When you use the :joins option you can get multiple instances of the same item. For example, say you want every User who owns one or more Lists. With the code below, if a user owns 5 lists, the User will show up five times in the results:
users = User.find(:all, :conditions => ['users.id = lists.user_id'], :joins => [:lists], :order => 'users.username')
You can cause each found user to appear only once by using the :select option with "DISTINCT":
users = User.find(:all, :conditions => ['users.id = lists.user_id'], :joins => [:lists], :select => 'DISTINCT users.*' :order => 'users.username')
Example: find by associated table
Say you have tables "authors" and "books" and they have a one-to-many association.
You want authors who have written books with "cooking" in the title…
cookbook_authors = Author.find(:all, :conditions => ['books.title LIKE ?', '%cooking%'], :joins => [:books], :order => 'authors.last_name' )
For many-to-many associations, it's a similar pattern. Say you have tables "people" and "organizations" with a many-to-many association through the join table "organization_memberships".
Ski Club members whose first name starts with "a"…
ski_club_members = Person.find(:all, :conditions => ['first_name LIKE ? AND organizations.name = ?', 'a%', 'Ski Club'], :joins => [:organizations], :order => 'people.last_name' )
