Comments about Baby Cache Hudson Double Dresser - Slate:
Perfect for our baby boy's nursery. Price initially seemed high, but when you consider the high-quality of the build and the fact that the matching crib is convertible, we're certain to be using this dresser for at least the next 15 years. Great design. It's simple enough yet looks very modern in our space. Would work well for a baby girl's nursery too.

Using it for baby nursery, dresser looks great, feels substantial & will fit everything that needs to go in it without being gigantic. We have a small house & it is a small room & this dresser fits in perfectly. The little style details on it are great. We like it & hope our son will have it for the rest of his life.

Love, love, love this dresser! The quality is fantastic, it's real stained solid wood. We bought a Baby Cache set for our first and the quality has sure been amazing. It's lasted through two overseas moves without any cracks or dings. We knew we had to have another Baby Cache set for our second. The slate finish is beautiful.

In the 1930s French scientists determined that bees could not fly. They knew, of course, that the insects could and did. But according to their calculations, this feat was aerodynamically impossible. They based that conclusion on the fact that wings as small as a bee's could not possibly produce enough lift to allow the bee to get airborne. The problem was, they presumed that the bee's wings were stable, like an airplane's, when in fact honeybees flap and rotate their wings 240 times a second. This flapping, along with the supple nature of the wings themselves, allows a bee--or any flying insect, for that matter--to create a vortex that lifts it into the air. But the specific aerodynamic mechanics of that process as it pertains to the honeybee, with its stubby wings, has remained a mystery until now.
New research from Michael Dickinson of the California Institute of Technology and his colleagues finally explains how Apis mellifera flies. Unlike other flying insects, honeybees use short wing strokes of less than 90 degrees and a high number of flaps every second to stay aloft. The researchers found that when challenged to fly in difficult conditions, such as a mixture of oxygen and helium that mimicked air density at more than five miles up in the atmosphere, the bees resorted to wider strokes but maintained the same high flapping frequency.
This means that honeybees are using a wing stroke pattern that is less efficient than the broader strokes and slower flapping of fruit flies and other insects, despite their constant foraging for food and other necessities. But it also means that a bee can generate more lift when it needs to--when it must carry a heavy load, for example. The researchers speculate that this odd set of strokes may have arisen from precisely this need, as the social creatures sometimes must fly while burdened with nectar or larvae. A report detailing the new findings is being published online this week by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

It's true the race card is on full display once again as lawmakers on the -- say that those that disagree with the president's new anti gun plans well.
They must be racist Ellison what congressman Hank Johnson told CNN's news yesterday after the president announced his number bypassed congress and put forward 23 executive actions.
Part of the generation through covered it's going to be kind of personal dislike him about the -- what he's.
By doing that is reasonable first -- first.
-- -- And as a person.
The minute and then in the states that -- news you -- America.
It's still connected and -- couldn't get over the first election.
Did you feel -- the second election from his opponent shoots.
Congressman Johnson -- a wild -- perhaps the NRA disagrees with the president's policies because they represented.
An assault on the Second Amendment to the constitution.
And there's more just yesterday New York congressman Charlie Rangel said.
But the race is in the south are to blame for the lack of gun laws in that region are really listen -- us.
Knew you it's a little different and more progressive.
In a lot of areas and some of the states and seven to seven areas have cultures that we have to.
Global com.
To his house reaction to this the entire gun control showdown author attorney David Limbaugh Fox's political analyst Juan Williams won your reaction.
-- I don't think that this is about the president's race but I think that rays have a lot to do with this conversation that's why I think you see.
Congressman Johnson from Georgia saying hey look if you look across the south higher membership in the NRA high amount of -- ownership.
Principally among whites and in -- mostly Republicans.
And it makes for a huge divide in terms of trying to how -- -- sound reasonable legislation however puts in place reasonable gun control more rural area.
People and I've been brought up with the use of guns -- is more widespread and not many hunters in New York City Juan.
Great so -- it's a little different than another.
Then there are murderous city environment -- -- -- that doesn't that wouldn't stop -- from saying that punters and NRA members don't understand.
That there's a need for reasonable gun control that's not what he said he's what -- what Hank Johnson said they still can't get over that Obama is black.
What I what they said.
-- -- you agree with you shot -- I don't think that that's a legitimate.
Argument to make I don't think it's because I don't know what it is mind a lot of southerners and our region that I -- 60% of white people didn't vote for Obama.
And the south went overwhelmingly for Obama I -- tired of this David Limbaugh I'm getting tired of this country being led by the president.
Being divided along racial lines rich -- for black vs white old vs young.
This president is -- most divisive president in history.
And of course we hear from his party almost daily now it -- -- maybe you don't know the campaign's over.
You know that the Hank Johnson said he can't get over we can't get over that he's black and I can't get over there is a Marxist you know this constant usage.
Liberals and Obama of the race card is damaging -- race relations it's damaging minorities it's damaging blacks.
I did tick off seventeen examples of Obama's exploitation of -- -- adamant Bob -- but I've got to listed here you want to waste of time going into them.
But this is hurting race relations and Obama is deliberately.
Projecting race on to his political opponents saying it's their racism.
It's not it's up a case of deliberate projection he he's doing at this political advantage it's shameful and wine.
I don't think subscribes to that my wish he would condemn it.
I just did -- by the way did anyone know Hussein is saying Obama's use somebody saying you know unchained and every -- -- had -- -- -- -- -- It's where it would David when it isn't my President Obama say that this was because of race he said that there's too much he's killing in this country and you look up -- can tell he's got to go overwhelmingly white children.
He's got his minions out doing it for -- he went to minorities in the 2010 and 2012 campaigns.
And appealed on the bases of REIS -- to get out there.
Eric Holder said that we are cowards on race.
Obama continues to talk about injecting race into all aspects we talked about bitter cling cleaners he suggested that.
We had antipathy for people who don't look like us he said idiotic -- -- it would luckily he would look like.
-- David mark David.
-- -- -- -- Some of the brain called man up here it's like David you're way up in the -- you -- Touch with this central argument that I'm making to you that you can see the carnage in the black community at a tremendously high rate.
On a nice I -- I got to look at that you and I are black on black crime man.
-- got to get I don't I don't children so what do you say David because -- black on black crime it's tolerable.
Why isn't he had no where you can look at what -- -- people keep focused on it.
You ought to be honest on Matt your let's open a ban -- wearing it plays -- -- Let us hope if they're not putting it plays reasonable gun control they keep guns out of the -- you don't gang -- that are killing the Americans they don't Obey laws -- -- don't Obey them -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Go -- that hasn't opposite affect gun control as -- opposite effect you have these assault weapons -- and you increased crime you can create these gun free zones and that's where the maniacs go.
You most of the weapons most of the murders are committed by handguns only a small percentage by assault weapons which by the way.
Do not exist there's no such things that semi automatic.
That -- -- automatically we gotta keep the guys.
I -- -- it also delighted not a matter of the heart of this argument David you're saying that.
-- somehow the gang bangers that bugs all go to gun free zones David.
They are getting gunned -- I don't have a lax gun laws those -- their final at the places like New York Chicago we use them.
And then they used to kill people and that's why most Americans I would head.
According to Frank Luntz most NRA members think that you can put in place reasonable steps that I -- let's take away your Second Amendment right.
I'm not saying gang bangers go to gun free zones I'm saying he's maniac killers have gone to those sounds and Obama wants to direct all his loss.
-- those incidents and he wants to prescribe the exact wrong solutions and and play on people's emotions because he had something more in mind.
Not just banning assault weapons but getting that -- -- -- go to our weapons we have to the area I got to help clearly David won David Collins both.
A lot -- you guys.

Pegi Vail, director of the new documentary 'Gringo Trails,' on the transformative effects of tourism on the places and people involved.
After one year in power, Chinese president Xi Jinping has largely consolidated his power, but he still faces "perilous" challenges, according to a panel Thursday night at Asia Society in New York.
With China's air quality once again making headlines in recent weeks, we check in with China Air Daily's Michael Zhao to see if there's any reason for hope.
The video "Fresh Air by 2030" is the latest offering from our partner site China Green, a production of the Center on U.S.-China Relations.
While recent developments have raised hopes the so-called "Group of Two" is making strides, the countries are "not even close" on some key targets, writes Asia Society Senior Advisor Junjie Zhang.
As we pause to reflect on this somber anniversary, Emily Brill over at ChinaFile poses a rather unusual question: "Beijing's Air in 2013 or Ground Zero's After 9/11: Which Was Worse?" Her findings may surprise you.
Three questions for political scientist Ian Bremmer, who appears in conversation with Kishore Mahbubani on Wednesday, February 6, at Asia Society in New York. Tune in at 6:30pm ET for the free live webcast.
Two U.S. graduate students design kites with sensors that can easily monitor Beijing's air quality and send data back to the people on the ground.
As the "airpocalypse" continues in northern China, we check in with Michael Zhao, founder of Asia Society's China Air Daily website project, to see if there are any signs of hope.
In Asia, says the latest winner of Asia Society's Bernard Schwartz Book Award, water has gone from being just an environmental issue to becoming a strategic issue.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
I went through the proceedure for comskip not working, I found an error in the event viewer, but I have no clue what to do.
My system has Vista Premium, I use a registered copy of Showanalyzer, and I've done my best to follow all the proceedures. When I open Media Center it shows 4 errors like this....
User: Allen System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'System.String['. at Durrant.Common.BaseSettings.get_WatchedTvPath() at babgVant.MediaCenter.CommercialSkipAddIn.CommercialSkip.GetCurrentFileInfo(Int32 ProcessId)
I'm sure I've done something wrong, but what is it, and how do I fix it.
That seems to have fixed those errors. Commercials still aren't being skipped, but I will do more troubleshooting this week.

Private developers who want to build a commuter rail line from southwest Fort Worth to Plano will ask state lawmakers for a special tax district to collect money off the route in 13 cities, officials briefed on the plan say.
But creating a new layer of local government could be a tough sell in the Legislature, which gets under way Tuesday, and where members have repeatedly balked at creating laws that provide funding for North Texas public transit projects. And there could also be local opposition, as some leaders in area cities along the Cotton Belt line are expressing concern about losing control of land in their boundaries."I don't think it'll be an easy deal," said Vic Suhm, executive director of the Tarrant Regional Transportation Coalition, which has tried in vain several times during past legislative sessions to get approval of bills allowing local elections to raise taxes and fees for rail or other transit projects. "It has the potential to create a tax, and you've got a lot of those people who aren't interested in giving locals any more authority."The Cotton Belt project would stretch 62 miles, with trains serving places such as southwest and downtown Fort Worth, TCU, the Stockyards area, Grapevine, Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, Addison, Carrollton and Plano. More than half of the Cotton Belt project -- 32 miles -- is in Tarrant County, where it overlaps a commuter rail project known as TEX Rail that the Fort Worth Transportation Authority, also known as the T, has been planning for years.The T has applied for $480 million in federal funds under the name TEX Rail, and if the application is successful the money could be included in the Cotton Belt project.But it would be just a fraction of the estimated $2.7 billion needed to build the entire 62 miles. So an unidentified consortium of businesses has notified the North Central Texas Council of Governments that it will submit an unsolicited proposal this month or in February to build the Cotton Belt corridor with a combination of public and privately raised dollars.The proposal could include the promise of bringing a rail car manufacturer to the region, to build equipment not only for the Cotton Belt line, but also for commuter rail and streetcar projects statewide -- providing hundreds of new jobs at the same time.In return, the privately backed group could recapture its investment by receiving revenue from future property values, or dollars generated by transit-oriented development around the train stations.But to do that, the consortium needs legislative permission to create a special tax district with powers that stretch across 13 cities in Tarrant, Dallas and Collin counties."The private-sector team has developed some draft legislation that hopefully will be filed immediately upon the outset of the legislative session in January," said Tom Shelton, senior program manager at the council of governments, who is overseeing the Cotton Belt initiative.'Lots of questions' on powersShelton told the Regional Transportation Council in December that he was fielding "lots of questions from different jurisdictions about what those powers will be."Although the draft legislation to create a tax district hasn't been publicized, Shelton said the entity "would not have eminent domain power" and wouldn't be able to supersede cities' authority."We will not subvert in any way the powers and authority that properly resides with home-rule cities, such as city planning and zoning," he said. "We certainly will not incur debt and issue bonds without the prerequisite support of the city councils."Cities along the route have been asked to endorse the council of governments as the "responsible government entity" for developing the Cotton Belt project.Grapevine officials refused to act on an endorsement during a December meeting, saying they didn't have enough information about how the plan might affect their power to control development in the city."If it's a private entity that is wanting to deal with one group instead of multiple cities, then the cities will have to cede some level of control, power or regulatory authority to this central group," Grapevine Councilman Chris Coy said. "That will override what cities want to see."Councilwoman Sharron Spencer compared the moment to when Fort Worth and Dallas agreed in the 1960s to build DFW Airport on land primarily in Grapevine, giving the larger cities zoning authority over their smaller neighbor."It's exactly what happened with us many years ago when DFW Airport was built," she said. "We ceded control of a lot of things, which we've learned a lot from."Approval with reservationsIn December, the Fort Worth City Council approved designating the council of governments as the responsible entity. But a paragraph was added to the resolution making clear that the city "reserves the right to review and evaluate the merits of any public-private partnership" and to withhold support."We've talked to the folks working on the unsolicited proposal. I personally have talked to them," Councilman Jungus Jordan said. "I told them we're not going to sign any blank checks."Addison, Coppell, Haltom City, North Richland Hills, Plano, Richardson and Southlake have also approved the agreement.Carrollton is scheduled to vote Tuesday.Although the Cotton Belt corridor also passes through Colleyville and Hurst, no train stations are planned there, and their city councils aren't being asked to pass an endorsement at the moment.The Dallas City Council will also be asked to approve the agreement, Shelton said. The schedule is pending.Supporters of the Cotton Belt project say they could ask for help from Gov. Rick Perry, who might be interested in helping to bring the rail car manufacturer to the state.Perry created the Texas Enterprise Fund in 2003 to lure major employers to the state and through 2011-12 allocated $480.8 million to 102 projects. An additional $145.7 million in unallocated funds was available as of last year, according to statistics at the governor's economic development office.In Fort Worth, despite the cautious words about the power of a special tax district, Jordan is a strong supporter of the commuter rail project.He has been at the forefront of the effort to speed work on the TEX Rail portion of the project in Tarrant County and has chastised the T for slowness in gaining federal approval for the work.As it stands, the TEX Rail portion of the Cotton Belt corridor would open for passenger rail service no earlier than 2016 -- and then only if the T is successful in gaining federal new-starts dollars.The Cotton Belt project -- which could result in the entire 62-mile corridor opening by 2016 -- could be the best way to speed up the effort to expand passenger rail in Tarrant County, if cities can be satisfied their authority is protected, Jordan said."The only way I will support this," he said, "is if it accelerates the program, and it's less expensive than the [TEX Rail] plan we are already looking at in our passenger rail work group."But he added, "This is an intriguing idea and we're going to look at it."Gordon Dickson, 817-390-7796Twitter: @gdicksonHave more to add?

Just How Fat Are We?
Headlines fret about the growing obesity epidemic, but what does it mean? How did it happen? And what are the costs?
Illustrations by XPLANE
State Lines
Obesity, defined as a body-mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, is not equally distributed across the U.S. Check out this map to find out which state is the fattest (hint: it's the namesake of mud pie), which is the thinnest (think Coors Light), and which spends the most money on obesity-related health care (its governor pumps iron).
Read on, after the break, for more of America's (and the world's) fat facts.
Related Articles
I'm surprised to find Israel on the list of countries with wide-spread weight problems. I've been told by a resident that one sees far fewer overweight individuals in Israel than in America. These statistics seem unusual in a country with mandatory military service.
Hey Everyone,
The sources for this article are:
"Obesity Trends among U.S. Adults between 1985 and 2007," CDC; "Overweight and Obesity: Economic Consequences," CDC; Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, CDC; Global Database on Body Mass Index, WHO; "Obesity among Adults in the United States-- No Statistically Significant Change Since 2003-2004," CDC; National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey; "Kids' Meals: Obesity on the Menu," Center for Science in the Public Interest; "Weight Bias: The Need for Public Policy" and "Economic Impact of Obesity," Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity, Yale University, "Excess Deaths Associated with Underweight, Overweight, and Obesity," JAMA.
Interesting question on the percentages. I would think that obese counts as overweight as well, and thus they overlap, but I'll ask our print editors what's up and get back to you.
Thanks for your comments and questions!

So, I asked the editor who brought this piece to life, and she said that obese is indeed a subset of overweight. Anyone with a BMI that is between 25 and 29.9 is actually considered "pre-obese." You guys are right that it's a little unclear in the content, but this is indeed the way it breaks down.
Taylor Hengen
I dont exactly trust the information with the kids meals there. In most of those "dinners" there are several choices to make, which will affect the actual calorie count of the meal. Not the least of which is the drink. Milk is almost never chosen in these studies. From what I have seen anyways.

We were fortunate to be able to go to Prague a few years ago and were absolutely stunned at the architecture, cathedrals, etc. Prague was never bombed during WWII, so the city is full of buildings that are hundreds of years old. This is one of my favorite photos that I took. I thrilled it came out so well.

At Counter-Currents, today Greg Johnson did not let a comment of mine pass through (slightly edited below). Apparently, frank criticism of overt homosexuality is not allowed in his forum:
In previous entries I expressed my dismay about the degenerate musical tastes so common among white nationalists. And today I felt disappointed about the cheers that Jef Costello's latest article has received here.
Last January, in his review of Fight Club Costello wanted us to believe that a film that starts with rock music, based upon a nihilistic novel authored by a homosexual author, Chuck Palahniuk, when properly interpreted deals with rebellious, healthy fascist moods that could lead our young toward masculine identity. Similarly, in today's article Costello favorably reviews the book of another overt homosexual, Jack Donovan, again as exemplary to inspire the young on how to become more masculine.
Hello? I mean: Am I living in a different planet? How on Earth a nationalist site that purports to defend traditional, white interests ends up promoting the views of out-of-the-closet homosexuals?
In first place, neither Palahniuk nor Donovan—the latter, a featured author in Alternative Right—promote white interests. It should be a no-brainer obvious to Kindergarten kids that no overt homosexual who sells that sort of behavior as something healthy ought to be accepted in the white nationalist community.
And now that I have mentioned Alternative Right it's worth saying that I find it ironic that Sebastian Ernst Ronin, who looks old, slim and weak in his videos is, according to my standards, far more manly, honorable, valiant and honest that the macho-type behavior that Palahniuk or Donovan promote. In his latest article Ronin wrote:
"White Nationalist" organizations and political parties indirectly endorse the betrayal of the White Race; they are reactionary and not, relative to current conditions, dynamics and opportunities, revolutionary…
This reactionary tendency in the White Nationalist community is most professionally exhibited by the American Third Position and most "unprofessionally" exhibited by the American National Socialist Movement. Between these two extremes of blind and blinder strategic forecasting are upstanding organizations such as American Renaissance, the Council of Conservative Citizens, and such minor New Right poseurs as Counter-Currents Publishing, Alternative Right, and Youth for Western Civilization, the latter being the most notorious for confusing crass Amerikan jingoism and exceptionalism for Occidental nobility.
I agree with Ronin's last words in that article: "It is a binary world. One is either in or one is out" referring to the mental gulf between mere reactionaries and true revolutionaries. But promoting "gay" authors is not even "reactionary"! Furthermore, Alternative Right, where Donovan publishes, is a classic example of a "nationalist" organization repacked, as Alex Linder says, as implicitly conservative. This is not an organization that looks forward for a glove to be turned inside-out. Ronin reminds us that a paradigm shift literally means a transition onto and into a new world (see for example how my recent entries end with the Nietzschean call "Umwertung aller Werte!" here and here).
Ronin also points out, accurately, that these implicit conservatives ignore the fact that, due to the peak oil crisis (and I would add the coming crash of the dollar), both the US and Canada will collapse, and that the planet's population will be reduced by the billions by the century's end.
But back to Costello, Donovan, Palahniuk—and Greg Johnson who seems to be fond of such writers to the point of publishing them. See my lengthy response to Johnson's views on homosexuality in "Gitone's magic."
Since out-of-the-closet homos obviously won't be empowered in the coming ethnostate, it is refreshing to learn that Ronin spares the Northwest Front from his harsh criticism. Unlike the other blogsites and organizations, the NWF does not consist of implicit conservatives, gayish or pseudo-masculine, albeit "macho" types.
For an apatride like me, I am tempted to conclude this post saluting the banner that will be the banner of my Judenfrei, gay-free, feminist-free, truly manly country:

Not everyone in the world speaks English. The Portuguese language is the eighth most spoken language in the world. It makes sense to learn Portuguese because after English and Spanish, it is the third most spoken European language in the world. Many words in Portuguese are shared with the five Romance languages, which are languages that originate from Latin. It is not that difficult to learn Portuguese. In fact, you know some words from the Portuguese language already, such as flamingo and cobra. The Portuguese language originated in Europe but most of the world's Portuguese speaking people live in South America.
To realize business opportunities in Portugal or South America. To be able to travel around those countries independently and not rely on the usual offerings from tour operators. A unique skill for your CV. Learn a new skill and keep your brain active. Communicate with potential new partners on a dating site.
There are many varied ways of learning Portuguese, depending on why people need to learn Portuguese and what they hope to achieve. Some people learn better with audio than visual cues while others learn better in a group or on their own. Here is a summary of different types of learning and their advantages and disadvantages:
What if you could learn Portuguese at a reasonable cost, in a completely different way utilising new technology to maximise your reading, writing, listening skills so that you are constantly engaged and interested? New vocabulary and grammar is retained in your memory via a new fun method of learning Portuguese which is designed by specialists. Internet and mobile technology provides a complete and easy way to enable you to speak the Portuguese language quickly and effortlessly, regardless of your initial knowledge, via a personalised plan which reflects your personal learning style. You can practise your pronunciation on any of your multimedia devices that have a microphone and flash player, and you can even practice your new Portuguese language skills in our interactive community. Why shouldn't learning to speak the Portuguese language be fun and stress-free, without costing an exorbitant upfront fee? Babbel.com offers a convenient, ad-free, exciting new way to learn Portuguese in a way that suits you.

nother election is behind us, and some people are still basking in the glow of democracy. You know those people -- Chris Matthews of MSNBC comes to mind -- who think there is nothing better in life than being able to vote for who will run the government. (Sometimes they say "run the country!")
"Consider yourself blessed," they say. "In other parts of the world, people can't do what you have the right to do." This implies that the most important thing those other people lack is the right to traipse to the polls and cast their one vote each, thus having a "say" in who will "lead" them. I'd say they're lacking more important things. After all, one vote rarely makes a difference.
Look in the mirror. If that person stayed home on election day, Barack Obama would still have been reelected. It doesn't matter that if several million Obama voters had stayed home, Mitt Romney would have won. No one person controls several million votes. Each individual decides for himself or herself whether to go to the polls, and no one decides for someone else. Hence your vote doesn't count.
So this difference between societies that get to vote for their "leaders" and those that don't isn't as great as it may seem. Is there some other difference that may be more significant?
Here's a possibility: Freedom of speech, or the right to speak out. For many civil libertarians this right is what distinguishes a free country from an unfree one. By golly, every person has a right to express his or her opinion. As long as that's true, we are free people. Or so we're told.
It is true that we Americans can express our opinions generally without fear of government reprisal -- and that's good. This isn't true in North Korea or Cuba or Saudi Arabia, or even in some places that count as democratic. But is this really what makes a country free?
I'm not persuaded. Sure, it's nice to speak out against a government policy. But does it do any good? I hate that the U.S. government has troops all around the world. I hate that the military occupies Afghanistan and meddles in civil wars. I hate that the president has a kill list from which he picks human targets and then dispatches remote-controlled drones to murder them with Hellfire missiles, often killing people other than the intended victims. I speak out and write about this all the time.
But what good has it done? Both presidential candidates supported these policies, which would have continued no matter who had won.
The freedom to speak out, then, is not quite what it's cracked up to be. Maybe if that freedom were respected in North Korea, Cuba, Saudi Arabia, and those other countries, their peoples wouldn't be gaining quite as much as we like to think.
Actually there's a more important freedom that they lack -- one that we Americans lack too: the freedom to opt out. If you think the freedom to speak out is important, you should give some thought to the freedom to opt out. Now there is a freedom!
The freedom to opt out means that no one can force you to participate in any government activity that you object to. If you wanted to look after your own retirement pension, you could opt out of Social Security. If you wanted to arrange for your own medical care, you could opt out of Obamacare and Medicare. If you didn't want to help agribusiness or Wall Street, you could opt out of subsidy and bailout programs. And so on.
Think about it: If you were repulsed by drone warfare against the children of Pakistan, Yemen, and Somalia, you could refuse to pay for it. If you retched at the thought of monstrous-looking U.S. troops breaking down doors in nighttime raids in Afghanistan, you could withdraw your financial support. If you thought the war on certain drug makers, vendors, and consumers was immoral, you could just say no to those who perpetrate it.
This would not get rid of the government immediately, as we market anarchists would like. But it would sure beat the hell out of what we have now.

Countryside Council for Wales Enjoying the country Please note - A new body, Natural Resources Wales has taken over all functions and services previously carried out by Countryside Council for Wales. While the Natural Resources Wales website continues to be developed, some online services will continue to be provided on this web site.
The Valleys Regional Park project is going to develop, expand and enhance the unique tourism potential of the south Wales valleys
The Valleys Regional Park (VRP) convergence funding bid was approved in April 2009 by the Wales European Funding Office resulting in a £22m investment to develop, expand and enhance the unique tourism potential of the south Wales valleys. It is led by the Welsh Government in partnership with a range of local authorities, statutory public bodies and community and voluntary organisations. Additional funding will be provided by the Assembly Government through the Heads of the Valleys programme and Department for the Economy and Transport, together with contributions from the partner organisations.
The VRP project will create a mosaic of high-quality countryside recreation and heritage amenities including country parks, urban parks, green spaces, upland commons, reservoirs, lakes, canals, nature reserves and river corridors as well as historic sites and visitor attractions all linked together by an extensive rights of way network, trails, tramways and cycle routes. This will be backed by a sophisticated marketing campaign to promote the outstanding landscape and environment distinctive to the Valleys as well as the region's rich industrial history and cultural heritage.

Six ways to beat boredom at a feis

- Championship training for Irish dancers - tips from teachers on Oireachtas Part 1
by BRIAN PARRY, Feis America Magazine contributor
It is an unfortunate fact: When one is not dancing or stressing out, a feis can become mind-crushingly boring. This is especially true if you are not one for watching other dancers. As both a dancer and, at times, a spectator, these are some successful things I've used to help keep boredom at bay.
Practice. If you find yourself chafing at inactivity, then excuse yourself into the hallway, put on your iPod or MP3 player and run through your steps a few more times. Just remember to have someone watching the clock in the room to alert you when your competition is coming up. And remember not to over practice or risk running out of energy during those important moments on stage.
Read a book. This works particularly well when stretching. Get into the stretch, pull out a book and dive in.
Whip out some cards. Bring along a deck and try engaging other spectators in card games such as poker, gin rummy, or 21. If nothing else, you can play solitaire with yourself. Just ensure you are not distracting dancers, judges, or musicians.
Come equipped with your laptop. And don't forget the earbuds and power cables at home. Check with the venue staff for WiFi information. There isn't any? Whip out a DVD or calming CD to keep you relaxed.
Engage in a mini magnetic board game. Forgo the regular, bulky ones as it takes up too much space and you risk losing pieces, and bring out this mini box of fun. You can even continue a game on that dreaded long car ride home from a feis, too.
Tote a notebook. Write a story. Take notes on what other dancers are doing. This could into a roving dance journal of sorts that will be fun to read years after your competitive career.
What are some things you do to beat boredom at a feis? Let us know.

Great article!
I always go to feiseanna with friends, often ones of the same level and age group, so we always hang out. But if they're dancing and I'm elsewhere, I love checking out the vendors, chatting with the ones I know, and if all else fails... I pull out the watercolours or the camera. Those never fail to beat boredom!

Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Research in Neuroscience has never been so active, taking benefits from recent developments in functional imaging, molecular biology and transgenesis, or improvements in animals' cognitive behavioral analyses. Paradoxically, validation of new therapeutic strategies and marketing of really innovative medicine against pathologies with major social issues like Alzheimer's disease and related neurodegenerative disorders, ischemic insults, depression, or schizophrenia mark time and do not find way out in a near future. Drug development pipelines of pharmaceutical companies remain alarmingly empty.
This combined Special Issue of Molecules and Pharmaceuticals, on Neuroactive Compounds, will offer an unique forum to present the chemistry, pharmacology and therapeutic opportunities offered by new and innovative molecular series in all areas of neuropharmacology and neuroscience. I strongly encourage authors to submit papers for this special issue, within the scope of Molecules and Pharmaceuticals, and I hope that the fields covered will allow to rise our hopes in seeing soon the validation of breakthrough treatments in central pathologies of major concern.
