G4′s X-Play and Attack of the Show get schedule and staff cut-backs
G4 gamer show X-Play has been cut from five to three days per week, resulting in half the staff being let go including games editorial manager Abbie Heppe.
Kotaku received a statement saying that on March 2, Attack of the Show and X-Play will return to their former schedules, AotS going back to four episodes week, and X-Play to three per week.
A spokesperson said that the company does not "comment on personnel matters", but that with fewer episodes a decrease in staff was imminent.
The money saved from the staff cuts will got to producing more original programming in 2009. The spokesperson added that, "This is not a budget cut. G4 remains dedicated to these core franchises."
Looks like a little less Adam Sessler, Morgan Webb and Olivia Munn for everyone.

G4TV posts 15 minutes of Left 4 Dead footage
G4TV's posted up 15 minutes of direct-feed footage from the Left 4 Dead demo, giving pretty much ample reason to buy the game later this week.
We don't know a single person that hasn't been completely blown away by Left 4 Dead, so expect some heavy scoring on Thursday and Friday.
Take a look.

-By Swati Sucharita
Subway seems just right for the professionals on the go. The grub that Subway offers is nutritionally balanced. The people of Hyderabad have welcomed the concept of fresh, made-to-order sandwiches with the added promise of '97 per cent fat-free'. Besides the Roasted Chicken Sandwich and Turkey Sandwich, other popular options are the paneer tikka, aloo patty and chicken teriyaki. So, first pick your bread of either six inches or a foot long, then choose the fillings, which always include lettuce, tomatoes, onions, olives, cheese and pickles and finally the sauces, which are delicious options such as honey mustard, Sweet Onion and Mint Mayonnaise. The Veggie Delite and Tuna salads are also popular.

The Perfect Dawn Moon
Where: 77060 Houston, TX (United States). When: on 25-10-2010.

Proud of his countenance, Moon softly glistened. A Rotund – plump face – glazed in peaches and pinks. Ebon branches gracefully tattooed designs upon his glowing visage.
Silent fog drifting and billowing like pixies returning to their lairs before Ra's arrival. Casting tiny pearl drops upon my face and hair, while shawls of delicate dew clung softly around me like a 1930s evening gown. Flowing, Swirling long fingers of mist reach up to greet the dawn.
River whispered, ever flowing to the far beyond. His massive cape reflecting silver shards of blue, gray shimmer. Moon gazed upon his likeness, while river turned his rippled back; mirroring Moon's Magnificence. Gently plucking, river snared moon's kindled blush to adorn his cape. Like old friends, they offer gifts to each other.
Silence engulfs this arena, this stage, this enchanted hour. I dare not speak for fear of destroying some sacred vow.
My mind captures this moment like an amulet passed down by elders. I wish this event could last forever. But alas, with sad regret I turn and leave for home.

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas (if you celebrate, of course).
I was asked to make a "gooey, cinnamony coffee cake with walnuts and crumbles" by my neighbor for her Christmas morning breakfast, so of course I did.
I love it when I get asked to make specific dishes because it's like a challenge to make the very best they've ever had.
I think I did okay this time.
What do you have for breakfast on Christmas morning? Do you have any cool Christmas traditions?
This "divine" coffee cake is adapted from King Arthur Flour and the streusel (my "go to" streusel) is adapted from Buns in My Oven.
- Cake:
- ¾ cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 2½ teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup sour cream
- 1¼ cups milk (any kind)
- 3¾ cups flour
- Filling:
- 1 cup brown sugar, light or dark
- 1½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
- ½ cup crushed walnuts
- Streusel:
- 1 cup crushed walnuts
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 8 tbsp butter, cubed
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease two 9″ round cake pans.
- Make the Cake:
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter, salt, sugars, baking powder, and vanilla until well combined and smooth.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream or yogurt and milk till well combined. You don't need to whisk out all the lumps.
- Add the flour to the butter mixture alternately with the milk/sour cream mixture, beating gently to combine.
- Pour/spread half the batter (a scant 3 cups) into the prepared pan(s), spreading all the way to the edges. If you're using two 9″ round pans, spread 1⅓ cups batter in each pan
- Make the Filling:
- Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and walnuts.
- Sprinkle the filling evenly over the batter.
- Spread the remaining batter over the filling.
- Use a table knife to gently swirl the filling into the batter, as though you were making a marble cake. Don't combine filling and batter thoroughly; just swirl the filling through the batter.
- Make the Streusel:
- In a medium bowl, combine the crushed, baking powder, cinnamon, and brown sugar.
- Cut in the butter until well combined and you have small pea sized lumps. Sprinkle this over the top of the cakes.
- Sprinkle the topping over the batter in the pan.
- Bake the cake until it's a dark golden brown around the edges; medium-golden with no light patches showing on top, and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 to 50 minutes. When pressed gently in the middle, the cake should spring back.
- Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 20 minutes before cutting and serving. Serve cake right from the pan.
- (I made a Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting for the middle of the cakes and drizzled the top with a cinnamon powdered sugar glaze)

How Newspapers Reported the Civil War
A collection of historic front pages shows how civilians experienced and read about the war
- By Jeanne Maglaty
- Smithsonian.com, January 10, 2012
(Newseum Archives)
Soon artists and correspondents were covering far more dangerous assignments. Calling themselves the "Bohemian Brigade," they traveled with armies as witnesses to war. "There were battlefield sketch artists who were essentially embedded," says Christoffersen. These men were dubbed "specials." When Confederate shots erupted in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina, on April 12, 1861, a special positioned himself near U.S. Army Maj. Robert Anderson on the rampart of Fort Sumter. The scene he drew graced page 1 of the New York Illustrated News on April 20. (War scenes usually took about two weeks to appear in print.) The accompanying article described a "gallant Major as he vainly scanned the horizon for the expected supplies and reinforcements, upon which depended the continued occupation of the fortress, but which, alas, he was never destined to receive." Union forces surrendered after 34 hours.
Although newspapers weren't yet able to reproduce photographs, says Christoffersen, they could use information documented in photographs to make engravings. The Illustrated News points out that its portrait of Anderson was sketched from a photo taken at the fort.
Comments (5) |
Could "Wide Awake" refer to the Wide Awakes? The Republican paramilitary group whose goal was "to be a body joined together in large numbers to work for the good of the Republican Ticket"? Seems likely, considering this group worked hard to ensure a Republican victory in 1860.

to: Vijai Narayanan, Perhaps this info from newspaper cover #3 will help you:
"Although newspapers weren't yet able to reproduce photographs, says Christoffersen, they could use information documented in photographs to make engravings. The Illustrated News points out that its portrait of Anderson was sketched from a photo taken at the fort."
Wonderful feature story. The Confed news printed on wallpaper was fascinating, See #6. Thank you.

Posted by Jane Hessin on January 18,2012 | 02:00 PM
This is really fascinating, but I'm also curious as to how the photos and illustrations were printed in the papers as early as the 1860s. Any thoughts?
Posted by Vijai Narayanan on January 15,2012 | 01:42 PM
I love studying the Civil War & how it was fought love reading about the outcome of new laws, scrimmages & the layout of the times.

Sourced from Article here
The origins of the tarot are somewhat obscure. Some believe that its beginnings lie somewhere in Ancient Egypt, brought to Europe by gypsies. Others believe that it was developed in Ancient China and brought to Europe by trading ships. This may have some truth to it, but historians have never been able to conclusively prove either possibility. Most historians, however, will agree that the tarot was developed in Italy during the fifteenth century.
The first clear reference that we have to Tarot cards is from a sermon that was collected with many others about 1500 in Italy found in the Steele Manuscript. The sermon is thought to date from about 1450 to 1470 and is a diatribe against games of chance. It gives a detailed description of the Tarot trumps, not only numbering them but naming them as well.
Although it is unknown who created the first pack of tarot cards, the 3 decks called the "Visconti Trumps" are generally regarded as the forefathers of the decks that are widely available today. The original intention of the tarot was, however, not as related to the occult as some may think.
The tarot was developed as a card game known as "Triumphs". This game was very similar to the game of "bridge" that we know today. Like the decks of playing cards at the time, the tarot had four suits of cards with numbers from 1 through 10, and court cards that were pages, knights and kings.
Unlike the playing cards, the tarot had an extra four court cards called queens. They also included 21 trump cards not belonging to any suit. These trump cards bore symbolic pictures on them, such as the Pope, the Emperor, Death, the Devil, the Moon and the Wheel of Fortune.
This game became extremely popular, especially among the Upper Class. It soon populated through Northern Italy and Eastern France. As the tarot spread to new locations, changes were often made to pictures and the ranking of the trumps. In time the game spread through out the Mediterranean countries and as far north as the Scandinavian countries.
The first account of divination using cards is linked to Jean-Baptiste Alliette, the French cartomancer better known as "Etteilla" (Alliette backwards), in 1770. He is believed to be the first to publish divination meanings for cards. Only 33 cards, one of which represented the querent, were included in this edition. However, only regular playing cards were mentioned.
Later, Etteilla published several works that involved the Tarot Trumps specifically. It is no surprise that these later writings coincided with Gebelin's then-recently-public treatment of the Tarot as a reference of the Ancient Egyptian arcane. Etteilla's deck was the first deck available to the public to be used for the purpose of Cartomancy.
In 1781 Antoine Court de Gébelin developed a system for divination using these cards. Gebelin, a French linguist and occultist, was convinced of the mysticism of the Tarot and linked it to Egyptian mythology. Interestingly, gypsy is considered to be a corrupt form of the word Egyptian.
He believed the tarot originated in Ancient Egypt, and served as tools of initiation into the priesthood. For Gébelin, the Tarot's Major Arcana was the Book of Thoth. He believed that it had survived the destruction of the Library of Alexandria. Gébelin believed the Tarot to be a pictorial embodiment of this occult wisdom.
Around 1835, a French priest named Eliphas Levi thought the Tarot to be the key to the Jewish Qabbalah, the Bible and most other ancient spiritual writings. He set out to link the 22 cards of the Major Arcana to the letters of the Hebrew alphabet, drawing parallels between Tarot suits (cups, pentacles, swords and wands) and the four letters of the Tetragrammaton, YHVH ('Yahweh').
The earliest known book of Tarot cards still in existence are from around 1841. Seventeen of these remain. The first entire deck still in existance is one painted for the Duke of Milan by an Italian artist named Bonifacio Bembo .
Shortly afterwards, a professor named MacGregor Mathers was the head of an English Order known as the Golden Dawn, which was founded in 1886. He studied mysticism and wrote about the Tarot. To this day his research, in association with the Golden Dawn is still widely believed to be the authority on the esoteric.
Sir Arthur Edward Waite (1857-1942), the English philosopher and member of the Golden Dawn, broke from the Order of the Golden Dawn and founded his own school of mystical thought. Working with illustrator Pamela Coleman Smith, who was also a member of The Order of the Golden Dawn. Waite created a "revamped" deck featuring images on all the cards, Minor as well as Major Arcana. They produced the 78 card deck that we use today. These are now known as the Rider Waite and Universal Waite decks.
Since then various versions of this 78 card deck have been formed. Popular among these are the Tarot of The Cat People, Halloween tarot, Aquarian Tarot and the Thoth tarot. Although the cards in these decks essentially represent the same as the Waite decks, trump and suit names are varied to suit the theme of the pack. Some Readers also tend to connect better with the artwork on certain decks.
While the mid 1900s may have been somewhat dark times for mysticism, the latter part of the century has seen a substantial increase in the general populous' interest in the various disciples of the arcane. During the past twenty odd years especially, the world has seen new developments on television shows, the rise of neo-paganism and a myriad of successful occultist authors. Science has even taken a far greater interest in anything that might be considered paranormal.

I dont understand why my ex
I dont understand why my ex listens to your song Jar of Hearts. While she physically and emotionally beat me like I was lower than dirt. I even had pretend to have cheated her with a friend, so she would dump me or break up with me. In order to stop her abuse towards me..... That just maded worse that it happened everyday until I finishly left her while she was at work. Before I had no where else to go not even help from my own family wanted to help me, it could a friend that helped me (same friend that help me before) finally leave her and her abuse forever. I dont have a jar of hearts, but a jar of scars in my heart..... I do not understand someone so mean could listen to your song..... Maybe you can explain it to me, why she hit me, choke me, kick me, punch me, verbal abuse me, and so on?? Did I deserve it?? :'-(
though i'm not exactly sure
though i'm not exactly sure why she would listen to the song because of it's true meaning (that would be you hurting her, which is obviously not the case), it's obvious someone mean like her has anger-problems. people with anger problems are emotional and emotional people like songs like this. that's probably the only reason she likes the song. not everyone has been in such a situation, but we can all technically relate too and feel the strong emotions portrayed in this song, definitely. now she may not realize it, but from your perspective, it is quite wrong for her to be listening to a song like so, for i believe she was slowly collecting your heart in her jar without realizing it. that's the point of the song, someone is hurting you, yet stealing your heart (love) away at the same time for their own bitter pleasure, using you. she probably doesn't even realize this, but probably would if she was on the outside, looking in at her own situation. you should watch the music video perhaps, it depicts Christina's heart being "collected"/stolen by her lover who's hurting her at the same time by cheating. please watch it. i'm so sorry you had to go through that.

A key space in the University of Newcastle's Auchmuty Library has a stunning new look and state-of-the-art technology for students.
Built more than 40 years ago, the Flowers Reading Room has shed its dim interior and 1960s furniture to become a contemporary study and reading area.
University Librarian Greg Anderson said the Room was a key study location for the thousands of students who used the library each year.
"The refurbished Room provides state-of-the-art facilities including lounges and tables for collaborative work and study, interactive plasma screens, quiet study spaces and a dedicated postgraduate study area," Mr Anderson said.
"Every study space has access to power and data cables for laptop computers and we have installed a massive picture window to let in lots of natural light and make a connection with our bushland campus.
"The refurbished Flowers Reading Room provides a comfortable space to think, study, read and relax and caters to the needs of our students."
The Flowers Reading Room is named in honour of Pat and Ted Flowers, who have a long association with the University of Newcastle and libraries in the Hunter region.
Mrs Flowers joined the Newcastle Technical College Library in 1943 and went on to become the University College Librarian in 1951 and Foundation Librarian at the Newcastle Conservatorium of Music before retiring in 1983.
Meeting his wife when he joined the Technical College Library in 1948, Dr Flowers served in a number of roles before taking up a position at the former Newcastle University College as Librarian in 1961. He became University Librarian in 1965 when the University became autonomous.
Dr and Mrs Flowers have a long and distinguished record of community service and the Flowers Reading Room was named in their honour in 1990 for their contribution to the University and the Hunter community.
The refurbishment is the latest project undertaken by the University Library to increase the number of computers, wireless connectivity, group study rooms and interactive technologies to enhance the student experience.
The Flowers Reading Room refurbishment will be officially opened on Friday 4 September 2009 by the University's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Nicholas Saunders. Pat and Ted Flowers will join in the celebrations.
Photo opportunity: 10am on Friday 4 September 2009. Please meet at the front entrance to the Auchmuty Library, University of Newcastle, Callaghan campus. 'Before' shots can also be provided.

Guest edited by Dr Miri Yemini at Tel Aviv University, Israel.
The Journal of Enterprising Communities focuses on enterprise, people and places, a topic critical in the global economy as it is evolving. The journal aims to examine the successes and failures of such ventures in a critical way, looking for useful theoretical perspectives, distilling key practices and determining common pitfalls. It also identifies important policy issues and options, and communicates these findings amongst scholars, practitioners and policy makers.
The journal publishes research articles and encourages rigorous and well-developed case studies of all types. Successful practice has much to offer theory, and best practices can be distilled from the stories of those who have and are succeeding.
Increasingly the events critical to the sustainable prosperity of people (culturally, socially, economically and environmentally) are being played out at the nexus of the local or the community (people in places) and the transnational (corporations, groups and movements of the civil sector, and supranational organizations and agreements). More and more, business enterprises are the vehicle being used by communities of people in pursuit of sustainable prosperity as they define it, and this definition goes far beyond simple economic criteria. As a result, these enterprises are not always or even often businesses in the classic capitalist, or neo-classic economic sense. Rather they are enterprises with much broader goals, many of them social/cultural/environmental rather than economic, and they exhibit diverse forms of ownership, organization and operation. In a wide variety of places, among diverse groups of people, these efforts are succeeding. Unfortunately, in many more places and for many groups, such efforts are failing or they are not being attempted at all. This new journal will attempt to both create and inform the debate in this exciting area of research.

Taxing dirty energy
Only 10-15 per cent of the population is motivated strongly to go green if it's not in their own economic best interests. Dr Chris Hope explains that business is key to creating a green economy. Steps are required to ensure that businesses, looking for value-for-money in their energy supply and use, end up with a clean and green product. This can be done by making sure that anything that is dirty has a tax on it to recognise the pollution, the damage and impact caused by that dirty energy. If th

Title: Occupations for Women: A Book of Practical Suggestions for the Material Advancement, the Mental and Physical Development, and the Moral and Spiritual Uplift of Women by Frances Willard
Location: Google Books Date: 1897
American women have always worked, but until the twentieth century most occupations available to them were simply extensions of their traditional domestic roles. Frances Willard, educator, suffragist and temperance reformer, strongly believed that a woman was capable of achieving any occupational goal she chose and wrote Occupations for Women to encourage those endeavors. You might be a little surprised, given the period when the book was written, of the types of occupations Willard addresses. The selection I have chosen is a chapter comparing the number of women in 1870 and those in 1890 engaged in different types of work. It was obvious to Willard that the times were a changin'. This book is one of my personal favorites.
POSSIBLY some of you girls who prefer romance to reality may feel inclined to turn up your noses at this chapter, but I assure von you will find very much of interest and profit in it, and will be paid by a careful study of the statistics which it contains. Figures aren' t always interesting, to be sure, but a study of them is almost certain to be helpful, and this is submitted to you that you may know for a fact what women already are doing in the world of labor, and the many opportunities there are for you in whatever field you may think you will excel.
The detailed table of occupations just issued from the Census Office gives many interesting facts in relation to the entrance of the American woman into various branches of trade and industry, and also throws light upon her advent into the professions.
The totals of the occupation tables were published a year or two ago, and from them it was learned that the number of women engaged in the gainful occupations increased between 1880 and 1890 nearly 48 per cent, while the number of men engaged increased about 28 per cent. During this period professional women increased 75 per cent, and those engaged in manufacturing and mechanical pursuits nearly 63 per cent, while in trade and transportation the increase was 263 per cent and over — two and a half times as great as in 1880. These were figures to make one think and they naturally awakened curiosity as to what particular professions, trades and industries women had selected as a means of earning a livelihood.
To satisfy this curiosity and reply to the inquiries the Census Bureau made a comprehensive inquiry as to the occupations in which women find a means of support and usefulness. The inquiry included also the comparative work and wages of men, women and children. The information elicited is just given to the public.
Broadly speaking, it would appear that the American woman, like her British kin beyond the sea, has taken a dip into every occupation. The advance of woman has been complete, and, with the exception of the United States army and navy, there are no blanks. She labors in the field and dairy, and thrives as a farmer, planter and overseer. She goes forth in a boat and braves the wind and sea in fishing, and drags the bed of the ocean for oysters. She may be found in lumber camps, doing duty as wood-chopper and lumberman, and even as a raftsman woman has tried her hand, and is not afraid to own up to the census man. With pick and dynamite she quarries stone and delves into the earth in search of the common minerals and the precious metals.
In the professional world woman has made here appearance in every occupation save that of marshaling armies and conducting war. Her progress in professional life has been as marked as in trade and industry. Here we have it with all the authority of the government official:
Occupation | 1870 | 1890 |
Actors | 692 | 3949 |
Architects | 1 | 22 |
Artists and teachers of art | 412 | 10815 |
Authors and literary | 159 | 2,725 |
Chemists, assayists and metallurgists | 0 | 39 |
Clergymen | 0 | 1143 |
Dentists, draughtsmen and inventors | 13 | 305 |
Engineers (civil, mechanical, electrical and
mining) |
0 | 124 |
Journalists | 35 | 888 |
Lawyers | 5 | 208 |
Musicians and teachers of music | 5753 | 34518 |
Officials (government), | 414 | 4875 |
Physicians and surgeons | 527 | 4557 |
Professors and teachers | 84047 | 246066 |
Theatrical managers, showmen, etc | 100 | 634 |
Veterinary surgeons | 0 | 2 |
Other professional service | 8 | 479 |
Isn't that an interesting story told in figures? A story of advance, of endeavor, of actual accomplishment. It is full of suggestion to the bright girl who needs only a hint to set her in the way in which success will be found.
Beside all the old occupations, we find women planning houses and decorating them; in the chemical laboratory; administering gas and pulling teeth; designing and inventing; and grappling with the difficult problems of civil engineering. They are on the road as theatrical agents and managers, and in the roll of veterinary surgeons, administering to the ailments of dumb animals. Notice, if you please, the increase of newspaper women—that is so much better term than journalists—from 35 in 1870 to 888 in 1890, and as authors, from 159 to 2725. There are six times as many women on the stage in 1890 as in 1870; three times as many professors and teachers; ten times as many women government officials; nine times as many women physicians and surgeons; more than forty times as many women lawyers; six times as many women musicians and teachers of music; twenty-five times as many artists and teachers of art; while the number occupying the pulpit has increased from 67 in 1870 to 1143 eleven years later. Summed up, we find an army of over 300,000, or about one-third of all persons engaged in professional services in the United States, to be women. This is not only a large actual increase, but, relatively to the men, the number of women is greater than in 1870.
Turning from this brilliant advent into professional life, we will follow woman's progress in what the dry tables of the census office generally term "domestic and professional service." Beside the old stand-by occupations— lodging-house keepers, laundresses, nurses and servants—we find the nineteenth century woman pushing into heretofore unheard-of avocations; as a barber, her dexterous fingers lightly remove man's grizzly beard; 19 women brave the wilds of forest and mountain as hunters, trappers, guides and scouts; while, more . singular still, perhaps, 28 evince no fear of ghosts and spirits in the somewhat mournful occupation of sexton. There are three times as many women hotel keepers as in 1870; nearly twenty times as many janitors; while entirely new occupations have been discovered for women as engineers, watchmen and detectives, under which last head 279 are returned.
It is in trade and transportation that woman has made her most tremendous record in these years. Over 200,000 intelligent, industrious, capable women have found a sure and honest way of making a living. As bookkeepers, clerks, typewriters, stenographers, cashiers, telegraph operators, women have found a profitable field of labor and occupation for which they are as well fitted as men, if not better. In the largest class—bookkeepers, clerks and saleswomen—the increase has been phenomenal. As agents and collectors, the number of women has increased from 97 to 4875. There are five times as many women returned as merchants and dealers, and over thirty times as many under the head of " packers and shippers"—aggregating in 1890, 6520 women. From 355 operators in 1870, women telegraph and telephone operators increased to 8474 in 1890, and probably number over 10,000 now. Women seem to flourish and increase and multiply in trade, transportation, as bankers and brokers, commercial travelers, dairymen, peddlers, weighers and gangers, as bank officials; yet as sailors, undertakers, auctioneers, boatmen and pilots, they have met with no success.
In manufacturing and mechanical pursuits women have found new and important industries and have not been slow in availing themselves of the opportunity thus offered for bread-winning. The census shows five times as many women bookkeepers, nearly four hundred times as many engaged in making boots and shoes, seven times as many employed in box making, as there were in 1870. In 1890 clock and watch making gave employment to nearly 5,000 women, and in 1870 to only 75. The increased demand for confectionery of all kinds brought the number of women employed in that industry from 612 to 5674. About one third was added to our cotton operatives. The tremendous increase in dressing the women and children of our country may be studied in the fact that our army of dressmakers, milliners and seamstresses multiplied more than five times in the period mentioned. Pottery, photography, lithography—all now give employment to nearly 10,000 women. The printing office, the rope and rubber factories, the shirt, collar and cuff manufactories, the silk mills, are employing more than 50,000 women.
In the industries American women are literally taking a hand in all branches. As blacksmiths they ply the hammer on the anvil and make the sparks fly. They bind books, and make bottles; as contractors, they build houses. They work in all the metals, including gold and silver. They cut stone, lay brick and plaster walls. And one woman has returned herself to the census man as a well digger.
A study of the figures given above not only suggests the intense fight for existence which has been going on for the last quarter of a century and has made it necessary for the women of the family to do something for themselves, but it likewise brings out the fact that they have not been slow in taking advantage of opportunities afforded them for a wider range of employment. While they have taken up some peculiar occupations, the satisfactory feature of the inquiry lies in the fact that they have made greatest headway in the occupations which are best fitted for them, namely, the professions and trades and many branches of manufacture. Upon the whole, the 4,000,000 women bread-winners of the United States may be congratulated on the headway they have made on the road to independence, and still more are they to be congratulated at the reputations they have won for themselves as workers. In almost every case those who employ women speak of their honesty, their sobriety, and above all their extreme faithfulness. They obey not only the letter, but the spirit of the unwritten rules that are set for the guidance of every employee. With these qualities, it is no wonder that women have come so well to the front and that the positions which they occupy are constantly increasing in importance.

Any band that has masters tracks and owns recording rights can submit songs for RBN. As long as submitted songs conform to the standards set in place, they should be accepted. There's not much more to it than that.

Your statement is so nice to read! I do so really hope it will be like this. I fear a flood of entries at the start of open beta that may not foreseeably subside, causing a "too many songs to test by willing testers" situation. I hope that my concern is unfounded paranoia!!

By Heather Soldonia
In the current real estate market I have heard both brand new practitioners and veteran brokers express that they are resorting to some basic prospecting strategies and among those is… open houses.
When I first began working as a REALTOR® my broker advised me to go to at least 10 open houses "to learn what not to do."
Indeed, I had some interesting interactions. The most noteworthy was at a brand new condo development. I was asked to complete an information card upon which they posed the question, "What reasons are you looking to buy?" I wrote, "First time homebuyers programs."
Apparently that wasn't a response they were interested in because the sales agent immediately informed me that the developer is absolutely not accepting less than 10 percent down, which would exclude the 3.5 percent FHA program. Taken aback by his brazen manner, I took a moment before replying, "This is an affluent area and you would be surprised how many people my age have parents who are happy to supplement down payments so that is not something you need to concern yourself with; that's simply one of the reasons I am looking to buy."
Around this time, a couple (appearing to be in their 60s) had also come into the sales office and my sales agent informs the receptionist that she doesn't need to call a different sales associate to help them, he would be happy to tour them… with me in tow. Continue reading »

Portrait of a Doggy
If "sit" and "stay" aren't part of your dog's vocabulary, then odds are that an oil portrait painted in the style of old masters probably just isn't in the cards. Heck, that might even rule out a great photo. Luckily, that leaves the jaunty pen and ink portraits of Studio Legohead. All it takes is $140 (plus s&h) a few snapshots of your pup and a bit of insight into his/her character – et voila! A vibrant, charming keepsake to tack over the mantle in lieu of a pompous rendering in oil.
Bonus: If you'd like your dog's likeness to be sporting a top hat, jewelry, cowboy boots, or any other fashionable accoutrements – no problemo. Try getting your dog to cooperate with that in real life!

I read with interest the Friday letter from Lee H. Lybarger, who asked, "When has it ever been possible for unorganized, armed individuals to overthrow their oppressors?" To prove the point, Lybarger mentions Gen. George Washington.
Before the American Revolution we were not a nation, and so did not have a standing army. As a result, members of the Continental Army, from George Washington down to the lowest private, were citizen-soldiers who grabbed their weapons and ran to answer their nation's call.Even still, the regular army made up a very small percentage of those who fought for America. Most were minutemen, men who fought one day and then were back home the next.
And people back then did not have only muskets. They had rifles, flintlock pistols, rifled pistols, cannons, mortars, grenades, grapeshot, shrapnel bombs, swords, bayonets, lances, primitive land mines and even submarines.
When France fought its own war of independence a few years later, it was armed citizens who overthrew their monarchy. When Napoleon invaded and conquered much of Europe, he was met by armed resistance from the citizens of almost every country. This resistance was so bad in Spain that they actually named it guerilla warfare, after the Spanish for "little wars."
Since then, the instances of guerilla warfare are so numerous that it would be impossible to list them. However, we do know that it goes back to at least the 6th Century B.C.E., when Sun Tzu wrote about the concept in his book The Art of War.
Lybarger stated that gun ownership leads to an "extreme individualism." Since when did the ideal of rugged individualism become a bad thing? Americans used to be proud of our ability to take care of ourselves, and that used to include protecting ourselves, our loved ones and our country from all threats, both foreign and domestic.
Our Founding Fathers were highly educated and knew that only an armed citizenry guarantees freedom. They did not specify what those arms had to be because they wanted us to be allowed to keep up with changing weapon technology. The truth is that I have a constitutional right to own machine guns, artillery, tanks, attack helicopters and a submarine if I can afford one. Laws that prohibit the ownership of any type of weapon or that require me to get a license to carry a concealed weapon are unconstitutional.
The Founding Fathers knew what they were doing when they crafted the Constitution. They knew what happens to an unarmed population. Just ask the victims of the Holocaust or the millions who were exterminated by Stalin, Lenin, Mao and many other tyrants.
Just ask the citizens of cities with strict gun-control laws who have to cower inside their homes every night, terrified of the armed criminals who roam freely through their streets.
It is past time to return to our roots and make the Constitution the true law of the land by restoring our full rights.

The Buccaneers welcomed the New England Patriots to One Buc Place on Wednesday and will spenT two days practicing against the Patriots leading up to Friday night's preseason game at RJS. Read the latest happenings and notes in this PewterReport.com feature, Bucs News To Know.
Here is what you need to know about what happened at One Buccaneer Place on Thursday, August 23:
• Cornerback Anthony Gaitor is still suffering from a hamstring injury suffered late in the first half of last Friday night's preseason game with the Titans. Gaitor was walking without any noticeable limp in the locker room after Thursday's practice, and said he is still day-to-day. The team doesn't expect him to play Friday night against New England but Gaitor should be ready to begin practicing next week.
• Wide receiver Arrelious Benn (knee), cornerback E.J. Biggers (foot) and defensive end Da'Quan Bowers (Achilles) remained sidelined.
• There were no Buccaneers roster moves on Wednesday.
• The Buccaneers and Patriots wrapped up their second of two joint practices Thursday afternoon in preparation for their Friday night matchup at Raymond James Stadium. Bucs head coach Greg Schiano told the media Thursday afternoon the practices have been beneficial for his young football team, particularly when facing a quarterback like Tom Brady.
"Well, you better be precise because he's going to be precise and they're going to be precise, Schiano said. "So we need to be precise and we need to pressure the quarterback. You can't let him just stand back there, he's too good. At the end of the day you're looking at a first-ballot hall of famer, so he's as good as you're going to see, so it's good for our defense, great work."
Belichick addressed the media at One Buc on Thursday and talked about the advantages to the two-team workouts.
"Well I would say the number one thing is not really about beating somebody in practice," Belichick said. "It is about working with somebody and getting better. We are not here to try to win a drill or trick Tampa on something. That's not the point of it. The point is to work on what we want to work on and work on what they are working on so that we can become better. When we walk off the field, we are a better team than we were when we walked on it. That's the way we practice against each other. We compete against each other, but we compete in a way that we can improve each other."
Gerald McCoy talked about "Patriots Week" in open locker room following Thursday's practice.
"It's been fun, but honestly, it's just some good work for us," McCoy said. It's a different opponent, it just so happened to be three-time Super Bowl Champs in the past however many years. Those guys [Patriots], you can see how seasoned they are, how they practice. I'll speak for everybody when I say Tom Brady is just – he's on another level and we got to see why he is who he is today."
• The third preseason game is normally the game in which starters play close to one half and in some cases into the third quarter. Schiano, however, was non-committal when asked how much the starters will play on Friday night against New England.
"I think we'll see our guys play for a little bit," Schiano said. "I hate to stand up here and say something and then it not be the case, because you get into a game and like last week, we had nine possession that we defended in the first half. That's near three quarters. In some games you're into the fourth quarter with the ninth possession, so to sit here and say they'll be out and then they don't go, that's why I don't box myself in, but I sure hope if the game goes like a game should that we're playing them in the second half."
• Friday's game against New England will be blacked-out locally after failing to sell out 85 percent of the available tickets. Last week's game against Tennessee drew just 45,633 fans but Friday's game is expected to be considerably larger. Unfortunately for Buccaneers fans, the larger crowd will include a fairly large contingent of Patriots fans who now call Florida home.
The Buccaneers are still hoping the opening game against the Carolina Panthers on September 9 will be sold out and able to be shown locally. The organization has made a push to increase ticket sales, announcing half-priced concessions (excluding beer) and also free parking in select lots.

Thanks Mark for the up date.

Hey Mark, thanks for info. It's really sad about the black outs! You know it's becoming out of sight , out of mind for some folks. I know it's hard to increase the fan base when potential young fans can't see the product. It affects ticket sales, jersey sales, etc. I thought 85% tickets sold to bypass blackout would be easy, then comes word that the 85% number does not include club seats. There's always a catch! On a side note Mark, great job on the new 98.7! I really enjoy the quality sound and your takes are spot on. ( I am wondering why commentators come in clear, but I kinda strain to hear the callers???). I find myself aligned with all most all of your viewpoints. It gives you a chance to expound on your viewpoints with some solid takes. Example, when you reminded listners that the NFL sets blackout rules not the Glazers. I think some were unaware of this fact. Great job and I wish you the best of luck with what seems to be a natural transition for you. I'll be listening! Peace.

Well guys as these players are hurt there is a chance that some of these other players could make a very good Impression. You know that each player must be accountable for being in shape. If they don't Pre-pared the3y could be on the street. Again example Jordan shipley the gifted wr who cinn released and Tampa grab on. He could be the steal in the veterans acquired GO BUCS I'M SORRY FANS ARE TURNED OFF ABOUT PRESEASON. I WISHED IWAS CLOSE TO TAMPA I WOUILD BE THERE SUPPORTING THE TEAM. GO BUCS WISH YOU GUYS ABOUT MAYBE A HURRICANE COMING IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS-GO AGAIN BUCS GLH
