The social network gives retailers more ways to sell via its discount service.
Facebook Inc. says it is testing a revamped version of its Offers discount product with several unnamed "global retailers" that gives consumers two ways to claim a deal. Consumers can either click a Shop Now button and make a purchase right away, or click a Remind Me button to get a reminder before the promotion ends.
When a shopper clicks the Shop Now button after claiming an Offer, he is taken to the retailer's site to complete his purchase. If he clicks a Remind Me button, Facebook bookmarks the Offer on its site, sends the user an e-mail confirmation and posts a reminder notification on Facebook that appears at an interval chosen by the retailer.
Facebook shares news in users' news feeds of a consumer claiming an Offer when he clicks the Shop Now or Remind Me buttons and then clicks a Tell Friends button.
The social network launched Offers last year as a way for retailers to present deals to their Facebook fans in their news feeds. That's the section of Facebook that displays updates from a shopper's friends and companies they're fans of, and where Facebook users spend 40% of their time on the social network, according to Facebook. The program's user interface enabled consumers to claim the deal with the click of a Get Offer button, and then redeem the voucher at a retailer's site or store.
Since its launch, 42 million unique users have claimed an Offer, Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's chief operating officer, said during a conference call with analysts last month.
She also noted that the Direct Marketing Association has found that Offers' cost per redemption "compared favorably" to promotions delivered via e-mail, newspaper, paid search, and display media.
In testing a new user interface that gives shoppers two options to claim an Offer, Facebook may be looking to get more shoppers interacting with promotions.
The test is only for consumers accessing Facebook via its desktop or mobile site. Those viewing the social network on one of its mobile apps will see the old user interface.
14.5% of retailers in a recent Internet Retailer survey featured in the Social Media 300 said they have used Facebook Offers. The Social Media 300 is a comprehensive analysis of e-retailers' social commerce strategies.

Four Animals That People (Inexplicably) Ride
Subscribe to our newsletter
Animal-powered technology has been important to us throughout human history. We used animals to grind our grain, plow our fields, drive extremely sharp objects into each other, and, of course, give us rides, especially if we can cover them in paint or give them a silly outfit (note that this is not mutually exclusive from driving sharp objects into each other; as a species, we tend to be kind of stupid). We've literally been doing this for millennia; the first horse was actually domesticated in 4500 BCE and we didn't actually wind up giving that species a break until the early twentieth century. And even then, it took a while for that newfangled automobile to take off. Yes, the noble, majestic animal that now costs thousands to buy and maintain was great granddad's version of a Ford Fiesta.
Being able to traverse huge distances was actually a pretty big deal. Just like driving everywhere is pretty important to the modern day, being able to get people, goods and information long distances away helped define empires. We owe a lot to the cuddly little animals we used because we were too lazy to walk.
But, of course, not everybody has had access to horses. So they have to make do with the animals that are available to them, no matter how silly they look. Remember, we used to kill each other over trivial distinctions in culture; riding something that makes us look stupid is pretty easy after you get past that.
Ahhhh, the majestic buffalo. Well, maybe "majestic" is the wrong word. "Enormous?" Yeah, enormous fits. Ahhhh, the enormous buffalo. Doing… buffalo stuff. Standing… being very still… slowly munching grass…
Anyway, famous around the world for its wings and being the mascot of a football team that was just good enough to keep losing the Super Bowl in the early '90s, the buffalo was integral to many cultures across the world, admittedly mostly as food (again, those delicious, delicious wings), but occasionally as a way of getting around.
It's pretty hard to turn up, but there were, in fact, people who rode the buffalo, and that's not slang for doing whiskey shooters or performing something that'll get you arrested in most countries. We mean they actually put a saddle on a creature mostly notable for being hard to knock over and standing in one place, and trying to ride it. We're not quite sure why; as we said, the buffalo has a reputation for being difficult to get to do, well, anything. If you weighed a couple of tons and had enormous horns on your head, you'd probably be disinclined to do anything some shmuck with a saddle on your back was trying to get you to do as well.
Well, we guess it beats trying to saddle wolves and ride them. The wolf would be uncomfortable, and it'd look like "Lord of the Rings" cosplay. And nobody wants that anymore.
Unlike some of this list, we can see why somebody thought riding a bear, especially into battle, made sense. For one thing, who's going to get in your way, try to cut you off, or otherwise be a jerk to you? You're riding a freaking bear! You don't even have to get off the bear to put somebody in their place (namely six feet under). The bear can just take care of that for you, probably not even interrupting his stride while doing it. In fact, you can probably just show up to the battle in your underpants, and read a magazine while the bear goes through and eats anybody trying to knock you off the saddle. The only two reasons we don't ride bears to work is the cost in feeding them and the fact that they're enormous predators who generally aren't shy about telling you to back off in a rather scary way, which is why people using bears as a form of locomotion is actually fairly rare.
But it is possible, as you can see. Especially if a bear is raised in captivity, it's comfortable around humans and happy to haul them around for short distances. Then the bear decides it doesn't want you on its back anymore.
On the other hand, apparently you can, as we learned from the circus and innumberable episodes of "you won't believe your eyes"-type programs, train a bear to ride pretty much anything. Bears have zero sense of the ridiculous, which definitely helps, so they'll just clamber on. Horse, moped, bicycle… There's nothing a bear won't ride! They'll even ride other bears! We're still talking about the ursine mammal, right? Because "bear" can be slang for something else entirely…
Yes, ostriches. The birds with the really big eggs. Those ostriches. People ride them, and not just in ancient arcade games that nobody will release on the PlayStation Network either. Yes, "Joust", in some limited fashion, is actually real and can actually be done, at least if you're willing to look absolutely ridiculous while doing it. In fact, adding foam weapons is about the only way riding an ostrich can be made to look more ridiculous.
Ostriches aren't actually that great as a mode of transport (although they're delicious on the grill), but what they are good at, incredibly good at in fact, is racing. It turns out that an ostrich, being essentially two very muscular legs attached to one very ornery bird, are ideal for supporting the weight of a human and running really quickly. How fast can they run? Up to 35 MPH, which may not sound fast but can be light speed when you're clinging to a creature who wants nothing more than to toss you off its back and go somewhere sane, where they treat ostriches with respect instead of racing them. Ostrich racing is popular wherever you find them, so mostly Africa and some parts of the Arab world. Most of this popularity is based on people betting on an ostrich to win because of the aerodynamics of its neck or whatever. We guess that when you're either very poor or live in a country with extremely restricted media, you'll take whatever entertainment you can get.
Llamas have a reputation for being incredibly unpleasant animals, and it is a reputation that anybody who has been near one can tell you is incredibly well deserved. Very few animals can be accurately described as "surly", but of the group, the llama decidedly fits the bill. How else do you describe an animal that expresses love, affection, hatred, distaste, hunger and minor discomfort entirely by spitting? And how did that spitting thing even evolve in the first place? What kind of evolutionary path decided that the cross between a sheep and a horse should also be able to fire off loogies with surprising accuracy?
Regardless, though, if you live in Peru and have to get anywhere, odds are pretty good you're travelling Llama Express. Riding a llama really is an excellent way to get up the little hills and minor bumps that are the entire Andes mountain range. Also, llamas happen to be exceptionally tasty creatures, and their attitude in life makes consuming them afterwards an immensely pleasurable experience.

actually my mum bought it for her but colour came out to be lighter so she gave it to me since I have fairer skin.I really don't see any wow factor here.It tends to emphasise my dry flakies and looks cackey and orange especially on sides of my nose no matter how i apply it(I have tried applying it with foundation brush,fingers and sponge after moisturising my skin first) .it looks ok in the evening but it looks obvious on daylight and its kinda dissapointing becouse I expected better results with this..

-Color match was close and nice (perfect ivory).
-Blending was easy and the foundation melted into my skin.
-Coverage was buildable, natural, semi-matte and a touch radiant (dusted with the Givenchy loose powder it was perfect).
-Nice SPF and claimed UVA protection.
-25 ml per bottle is too little for too much (most foundations have 30 ml in them).
-No staying power- it was on my face all day and I had to blot, retouch, powder…you name it.
-Not transfer proof- stained everything from hands to clothes. When I used a napkin it was all over it (and I was barely wearing any).
-Not suitable for hot humid weather- I usually wear TM or a sunscreen, but had to look presentable for work- started melting. Can't imagine what it would have looked like after a few hours outside during the summer (anybody need some oil to BBQ some ribs?)
Conclusion: it's nice if you need to look good for a few hours during the winter (when it stays on your face), otherwise- there are better products out there. By the way, I didn't know if fragrance was a pro or a con- it has a very strong smell (which I love love love), I like the fragrance Givenchy adds to the MU, but it might cause irritation (not that I had any).
Good luck if you decide to buy this :)

So many different liquid foundations have tried and failed on my face recently-this particular one is still in the 'Wait & See' category...not yet to be 'forget and regret'-neither is it HG for me-yet. For my initial application, I forgot to shake the bottle. It has a light, floral fragrance, and equally light (fluid) texture. It can tend to highlight flaky skin on me, so moisturizing beforehand is likely a helpful hint. This looked worryingly slightly orange in both the bottle, and when tested on the back of my hand, but lightened considerably on my exceptionally pale, pale face. Prior to using this, my favorite liquid foundation was from Orlane, however, it was slightly too dark for the impending Fall gloom, and it didn't have sunscreen (unlike this product, which does). The packaging is a pump, with a thick black square cap, and the Givenchy signature squares embossed on the top of the lid. Clunky, yet sassy, in a strange way. A downside for me is that I can't imagine wearing this much in the daytime, which is really rather unfortunate. It has too much of a theatrical, dramatic look to it. I suppose that it could be understated, if applied with a more delicate hand, but I'm a notorious taker or a leaver where makeup application is concerned. So...time will tell, and I will update, when I'm convinced that this is more or less worthy of additional stars, or not.

I am a foundation junkie, you name it, I've spent too much on it, used it twice and had to discard it because my skin is so temperamental! Anyway, I had this tried on me instore and the color was great in the palest shade, Perfect Ivory. It gave the impression of natural flawless skin without looking made up, which I considered a bonus for daytime wear and for achieving that catwalk look so popular at the mo. I work as a dj so my make up has to last the distance, and this is where it failed. After three hours it had slid of, and my face seemed to look an orangey pink colour. After work had finished I took my make up off to reveal a horrible collection of small red spots all over my cheeks, where I rarely break out, and chin, where I always break out. I was so disappointed!

I am coming back to wearing makeup, especially foundation after years of not doing it. Finding a foundation has been a less than exciting task, as my skin now that I'm pushing 40 does not look anything remotely like what it did when I was wearing a lot of it 20 years ago.
Foundations look cakey, gather into fine lines. Of course it's easier to get a smooth covering on a smooth surface. On top of that I am using Renova, so I have dry flakey patches some days that get highlighted by adding makeup.
Then I tried this foundation, and the even finish is so perfect! Smooth, satiny, evens out my skintone, and doesn't even look like I'm wearing makeup. I get a little shiny after a couple of hours (always happens with my otherwise dry skin when I wear foundation), but a quick powder touch up takes care of that.
And it doesn't look like I'm wearing makeup at all, just like my skin is smooth and transclucent again! I can't even take any points off for Givenchy not making a light enough shade for me (very fair), as this foundation has such a superbly airbrushed natural finish that looks 10 times better than any other foundation that comes closer to matching my skintone. Yes, I would like a shade lighter, and yes, it's expensive, but I had almost given up on foundation so this is a wonderful surprise. I have not found anything else that even comes close.
Update 10/14/10:
It worked wonderfully in humid New York summer, but can look a bit thick in dry cold Sweden. And it seems to exaggerate my forehead lines after some time. One lippie off. But nothing can beat it during the first couple of hours, radiant, transclucent looking skin. But I probably won't repurchase.

Really good foundation. It goes on quite light, looks like my skin but better. It covers very well, but without looking cakey or chalky. I got the petal colored one, which I was afraid would be too pink, but was perfect (I'm a NW20). Bottle/packaging looks very high end and the pump function means you get clean product and just the right amount, I usually use 1-2 pumps at a time. It doesn't dry too fast like some formulas do, you have time to blend it in (I use the SK purple peep sponge thingie). It lasts about 8 hours if I set first with my Photofinish primer by SB. Was it worth the pricetag? For me, it was because it did exactly what I wanted, it covered my red areas (rosacea) and evened out my color and provided a slightly luminous (not sparkly or shimmery) not quite dewy finish which resulted in my looking literally flawless but not "made up." Literally, my skin but minus the discoloration, redness and little imperfections.
Could I get this quality at the drugstore? Probably not. The price is definitely comparable with other HE brands such as Lancome, MUFE, or Chanel.
By the way, it has a slight scent, described as "light, white florals," which is heavenly to me and quite short lived. If smells turn you off, this may be a deal-breaker for you, but I quite like the aroma.
PROs: Lovely, dewy, luminous finish, covers evenly without caking or streaking, looks very natural but evens tone and truly covers imperfections without looking like a concealer or base (looks like my skin but better.) Pleasant aroma, great pump design dispenser. Lasts about 8 hours, longer than some brands. Lets my face breathe, no break outs or irritation.
CONs: It isn't cheap, but not more expensive than comparable HE brands. It doesn't last more than 8 hours. (It lasts longer than some formulas if applied with my primer, but it isn't transfer proof, it will wipe off if you blow your nose or wipe your face a lot)
This is my HG for now. I am always on the hunt for "the one." If it lasted 12 hours and wasn't so easy to accidently transfer or wipe off, it would be HG for real.

I bought this at Harrods about a month ago, and at the same time I bought the Paul and Joe cream foundation and got a sample of MUFE HD foundation in the post. This one is the winner, hands down and has become my best everyday foundation these days.
It's got a light, almost invisible finish - looks very natural and it holds up well. I don't need loads of foundation, just some evening out of skintone and this makes my complexion look perfect. It looks great but not too "done".
I can be prone to clogged pores and have no problem with this - would definitely recommend!

I got a tiny freebie of this as part of Sephora's Beauty Insider program. Which is a good thing because I never would have tried this on my own... Givenchy simply hasn't been a favored line of mine, for no reason other than unfamiliarity. I'm still reeling at how much I like this foundation. It does have a very thin consistency and I didn't need much to do a complete face. It gave me an incredibly perfect finish; matte without being dull, flawless without being heavy. Pretty much the kind of foundation I've search for for years. For the record, I have combination skin that goes shiny fast, but can still look dry and cakey in some oil-free foundations. So it's always a search to find that perfect HG finish. I wear Shiseido's Sun Protection foundation every day, but this (and Lancome Luminesse) just became my favorite nighttime. It even held up pretty well on an Arizona night in the 90s... and on my face, that's saying something. I'm NC27 and wear this in shade 5.
ETA: I knocked a lippie off because my latest bottle is different. The shade seems paler, there's less coverage and it does not last on me like it used to. And I went shiny quick. I'm not sure if they changed the formula or if I just got a bad bottle but it's not the great foundation I tried originally.

After trying to get the Sublime, the SA told me that it was getting phased out by this. She tried it on me, and i love the results so i bought it.
Not at home, i have found that the shade the SA sold me was a bit to light for me, which was a shame because i really like this. It goes on really well, and it blends out perfectly. Ive tried to use my Bobbi Brown Foundation brush, but it went one streaky, so i went with putting it on with my hands which works way better!!
the consistency of this product is very watery, but the covered is execptional for the watery texture! coveres better than MAC studio imo!!
But compared to the other foundations on the market, this comes in a 25ml bottle, which feels like your buying a very pricy product. But with the great coverage how well this product blends and spreads, one pump is enough!!!

An Empirical Analysis of Wi-Fi Activity in Three Urban Scenarios
Date Added: Sep 2009
Format: PDF
A better understanding of people's daily behaviors with respect to the underlying wireless network is a crucial step toward Wi-Fi based pervasive networking. Existing analyses found in the literature have focused on closed environments such as university campuses, offices, or conferences. This paper develops a new approach to analyze Wi-Fi user behaviors in the wild based on wireless sniffing. With the technique, the authors are able to investigate Wi-Fi activity in areas usually inaccessible to traditional systems. Moreover, instead of focusing on a single network, the authors capture behaviors of all users around specific locations regardless of their relationship with existing networks.

shuck went on to become a drill sergeant and Gabe was assigned to a new handler.
Ultimately, Gabe was allowed to retire and was adopted by shuck.
Why is it so hard to shuck this notion that governments should cut spending and/or raise taxes in times of economic slack?
"to remove the shucks from," 1819, from or related to shuck (n.). Related: Shucked; shucking.
Many extended senses are from the notion of "stripping" an ear of corn, or from the capers associated with husking frolics; e.g. "to strip (off) one's clothes" (1848) and "to deceive, swindle, cheat, fool" (1959); phrase shucking and jiving "fooling, deceiving" is suggested from 1966, in U.S. black English, but cf. shuck (v.) a slang term among "cool musicians" for "to improvise chords, especially to a piece of music one does not know" (1957), and shuck (n.) "a theft or fraud," in use by 1950s among U.S. blacks.
[B]lack senses probably fr[om] the fact that black slaves sang and shouted gleefully during corn-shucking season, and this behavior, along with lying and teasing, became a part of the protective and evasive behavior normally adopted towards white people in "traditional" race relations; the sense of "swindle" is perhaps related to the mid-1800s term to be shucked out, "be defeated, be denied victory," which suggests that the notion of stripping someone as an ear of corn is stripped may be basic in the semantics. ["Dictionary of American Slang"]
"husk, pod, shell," 1670s, of unknown origin. Cf. shuck (v.). Later used in reference to the shells of oysters and clams (1872). Figurative as a type of something worthless from 1836.

Tottenham Hotspur wants to offload Emmanuel Adebayor as soon as possible
Emmanuel Adebayor is currently earning around €170,000 each week and this is an extremely high salary for a player who is serving as a back-up option in Tottenham Hotspur.
So far, in this season Adebayor has made 12 Premier League appearances and has scored twice.
Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly believed to be ready to sell the Togolese striker in the summer transfer window which opens up when this season reaches it's end.
The chairman of Tottenham, Daniel Levy is even prepared to release Adebayor on a free transfer as the businessman is seriously interested in removing Adebayor from the club in order to cut down the wages bill which is substantially high.
Mauricio Pochettino may send away Emmanuel Adebayor
Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino has dismissed claims that he has looked at the possibility of sending Emmanuel Adebayor away from the club on a permanent basis.
The striker sealed a permanent £ 5 million switch from Manchester City only a year ago, but he has not been a favourite at White Hart Lane. His recent fallout with the supporters – after claiming that Spurs would rather play away from home due to the harsh criticism at the Lane – has certainly not helped matters. Adebayor continues to be a major pull – given his goalscoring abilities – in the Premier League.
Emmanuel Adebayor Struggling with Virus
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino says that he does not expect striker Emmanuel Adebayor to be back into the team until the end of Christmas.
The Togo international is reportedly struggling with a virus, although Pochettino will have little complaints about missing the forward. Adebayor has been going through a terrible run of form this campaign. His position at the club is similar to that of striker Roberto Soldado. The 30-year-old has managed just two goals – same as that of Soldado – and he recently came in for backlash from the fans after he criticised their support at White Hart Lane.
Adebayor Admitted Spur's Need Improvement
Tottenham Hotspur's start of the Premier League has seen the team of Mauricio Pochettino claiming victories against West Ham United and Queens Park Rangers. Those were the 2 opening matches of the season for Tottenham but the club located at the White Hart Lane suffered a huge blow when facing off with Liverpool and lost 3-0.
The match was played in the own stadium of Tottenham but this did not intimidate Liverpool as Brendan Rodgers and his squad went right through their opposition in a victory that was comfortably won by Liverpool.
This defeat was a huge blow for Tottenham as they had the upper hand of possession with 60% but it was Liverpool that managed to capitalize and secure the victory even though they had the worst part of possession.
Adebayor Set To Become Spurs No 1
Emmanuel Adebayor got a new lease of life at Tottenham under the management of Tim Sherwood. After being frozen out in the first half of last season, Adebayor was a major reason in helping Tottenham finish close to Manchester United in the table. His form was substantially better than Roberto Soldado, who has struggled since arriving from Valencia in the £ 26 million deal. Tottenham have not signed any major strikers in the summer transfer window so far. Hence, Adebayor is set to become the club's number one striker under new manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Adebayor Wants Europa League Spot
Striker Emmanuel Adebayor, who has been excellent for Tottenham in the second half of the campaign, says that he wants the club to win the remaining four matches of the season and seal a Europa league spot. The prospect of qualifying for the Europa league still remains available for Tottenham, who appears to have given up on the dream for top four place. The race for the top four will now be contested between Arsenal and Everton in the four matches of the season. Spurs are a distant sixth with a seven-point difference.
Emmanuel Adebayor has started to enjoy life again at Tottenham Hotspur. He had gone out of favour when Andre Villas Boas was in charge, but, after the sacking of the Portuguese manager, things have turned around for him. All of a sudden, he is finding himself amongst the goals and he credits Tim Sherwood for all that.
According to the Togolese international, Sherwood gave him the freedom to play his natural game and that's the reason why he managed to get back to his peak.
Since the departure of Villas-Boas, Adebayor has featured for the Spurs in 8 matches and has found the back of the net 6 times.
Tottenham's 5-0 defeat against Liverpool was the last match that Andre Villas- Boas was in charge of the club as he was later sacked. On December 23 Tim Sherwood was confirmed as the new head coach of the squad.
His first match in charge of Tottenham saw them claiming a 3-2 triumph against Southampton in what was a hard fought battle as they played at the St.Mary's Stadium and a spectacular performance from the Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor gave Tottenham the edge they needed to snatch all 3 points.
This was the first Premier League start of the season for Adebayor as he was facing some difficult times in Tottenham when Andre Villas-Boas was in charge but now things have taken a huge turn for the better.
Adebayor's current season with Tottenham is not going anywhere near to the previous one when he managed to claim the top goal-scorer award during the season of 2011-12 for the team of Andre Villas-Boas.
His fantastic time on loan with Tottenham made him sign a permanent deal with the Togolese and a transfer fee of £5m things aren't going as great as it used to. Having only made a limited number of appearances in this season for Tottenham and the arrival of Roberto Soldado has even lead Adebayor on being demoted to play with the youth squad on a number of occasions.
"I have tried to keep my belief but I cannot get any lower. If I am lower than this it means I am dead," Adebayor told the Sun.
Beskitas wants Emmanuel Adebayor in January
Turkish giants Besiktas will try to secure a move for Tottenham Hotspur's Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor once the transfer window opens again in January, it has been revealed.
The Turkish club tried their best to lure the former Arsenal and Manchester City striker to the club this summer as well, but a breakdown in negotiations with the club along with the player's unwillingness to move to Turkey made a deal impossible.
It was revealed that the striker was waiting for other offers to come his way before making a decision but with a lack of clubs keen to sign him, that waiting game backfired on him. He has since been reduced to a bit time player at the club following the arrival of Spanish striker Roberto Soldado and the presence of Jermain Defoe and it is this lack of playing time that might just prompt Emmanuel Adebayor to reconsider his options once again.
A source from the club also confirmed that they were interested in signing the striker in August and mentioned that they will try to sign him once again in January but also admitted that it is difficult for a club like them to sign such a marketable player. The source also mentioned that they are also looking at the prospect of signing legendary Brazilian forward Ronaldinho who currently plays for Atletico Mineiro back in his homeland.
But that signing will prove to be a huge gamble considering the player's histrionics off the field and the money they will need to sign him and that leaves Emmanuel Adebayor as the most likely option that they have. And with star names such as Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder already plying their trade in Turkey, Adebayor might just consider swapping London for Istanbul come the January transfer window as well.

Haaave you met my friend Anthony?
Hi my name is Anthony! Thanks for stopping by. I just moved to Pasadena last Fall from the IE. Not too far away but far enough with the traffic that my friends and family have resigned me to "distant cousin Anthony" (*insert sad face here*). After years at my cushy, stable day job, I finally stopped talking, grew a pair and got into school. When I finished, I dropped everything, made the leap and now I'm working in the music biz doing something I love and believe in! Yup, my life is filled with many blessings that I can't even keep count. But my love life on the other hand....no bueno. Meeting people has never been my strong suit. Well, let me clarify: approaching a complete stranger that I am attracted to is difficult because I am a total spaz! Watching me hit on chics is like watching the Titanic go down!

'Milk Party' Rally Aims to Put Attention on Kids
Friday's 'Milk Party' called for special Alex Sink, Rick Scott debate.
Published: Friday, September 17, 2010 at 11:49 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 17, 2010 at 11:49 p.m.
LAKELAND | Children's advocates from all over the state rallied at Lakeland's CommonGround Park on Friday, continuing their campaign to get candidates to address children's issues in their races and in the Legislature next year.
The event, put on by the Children's Movement of Florida, has been repeated in the north and central parts of the state. It is known as a "Milk Party" movement, a respectful reference to the success of the Tea Party movement.
"We have listened for decades to how important children are; to the African proverb that it takes a village (to raise a child), but seldom see the results," Lakeland Mayor Gow Fields said.
Former Miami Herald CEO and current president of the Early Childhood Initiative Foundation, David Lawrence, said lawmakers are understandably preoccupied with many issues, but children's issues should be among them.
"You want a bullet train? Here's $3 billion for a train. You want a prison? We'll get you two," Lawrence said about the priorities of the Legislature. "I know that all 160 of our lawmakers care about children, but you wouldn't know it to see what comes out of the Legislature.
"It costs $57,000 for juvenile incarceration. It costs $20,000 for a prisoner, but we can't get a third of that for our schools," he said.
Speakers continued on the theme that early success for children prevents a life of crime.
"Folks who are doing well are not going to be robbing your home," Lawrence said.
Parents and children, social workers and community advocates turned out for the event at the park off Edgewood Drive.
They want lawmakers - and especially the Democratic and Republican candidates for governor - to address such children's issues as better prekindergarten education, better child health care, more help for grandparents raising their grandchildren alone, and giving at-risk children better opportunities.
One of the key aims is to get both Alex Sink, the Democratic candidate, and Rick Scott, the Republican, to agree to a one-hour debate on children's issues before the Nov. 2 election. Sink has agreed. Scott has not yet responded.
"We need to convince Mr. Scott in a very nice and polite way that it would be a great benefit if he would debate on children's issues," public affairs consultant Sergio Bendixen said.
Carol Jenkins Barnett, president and chairwoman of Publix Super Market Charities and one of the founders of the movement, said children are the state's future.
"I thought it would be easy to rally people around children's issues, but it has not," she said. "...If children are not successful, the community cannot be successful."
Children and parents were served lunches and milk .
"You are at a milk party," Lawrence told the group. "It's not the Tea Party, but regardless of what your feeling may be about the Tea Party movement they are very good at getting the attention on their issues. Well how about getting attention on issues for children, we thought."

"I am a senior 84 years of age. Ive inherited high blood pressure from my grandmother who had a stroke at the age of 85. So I dont have much time left. Your 120 over 80 formula helps me to keep my blood pressure at levels which are fine for me. When I saw your HCBL catalog I thought; that would be excellent. The chemicals in the prescription drugs give me awful side effects. Now I order items from your catalog. I wish that herbs would be used more in American Medicine."
