ILO - International Labour Organization
Bureau for Gender Equality
March 2009 Theme of the Gender Equality at the Heart of Decent Work Campaign, 2008-2009
Motherhood and the gendered division of labour that places primary responsibility for maintaining the home and family on women are important determinants of gender-based inequalities between the sexes and of inequalities among women. Conflict between these family responsibilities and the demands of work contributes significantly to women's disadvantage in the labour market and the sluggish progress towards equal opportunity and treatment for men and women in employment. While women are forced, or choose, to accept poorly-paid, insecure, part-time, home-based or informal work in order to combine their family responsibilities with their paid employment, difficulties in reconciling the demands of work and family contribute to men's disadvantage in the family and limit their ability to be involved in family matters. Workplace schedules that do not take into account workers' family responsibilities can constitute indirect discrimination in that they force such workers to "under-perform" in terms of participation in workplace activities and thus potentially damage their career development prospects. In particular, women's career advancement may suffer when they take a "career break" longer than the statutory maternity leave for the purposes of family care or take up parental leave provisions immediately after maternity leave.
However, there has recently been an increasing recognition of the importance of devising measures to help reconcile workers' family responsibilities with their work – a key strategy to facilitate women's greater participation in decent work. As clearer links have been established between the achievement of equality between women and men at home and at the workplace, the issue of harmonizing employment and family commitments for both women and men has emerged as an important labour and social policy theme in a growing number of countries. Convention No. 156 sees equality of opportunity as the overall objective of work–family measures. However, not all work–family measures promote equality. As noted in a recent ILO Global Report: "There is a danger that work/family policies, which are often aimed implicitly or explicitly at women in particular, may end up reinforcing the image of women as 'secondary earners' and accruing to the double burden of working women".
Flexibility in working conditions and in social security should be promoted through:
· ILO – Conditions of Work and Employment Programme (TRAVAIL): Work and family
· ILO – Bureau for Workers' Activities (ACTRAV): Harmonization of Work and Family Responsibilities
· ILO – Bureau for Employers' Activities (ACT/EMP): Diversity and Equality
· C156 Workers with Family Responsibilities Convention, 1981
· R165 Workers with Family Responsibilities Recommendation, 1981

TV in comics update: Buffy, Angel, The Stranded and Serenity
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - season eight - Issues #10 & #11
These were stand-alone "episodes," unlike 'The Long Way Home' and 'No Future for You'. A few things are revealed here that help keep the Big Bad of this season in play. Willow has even more power than we could have realized in past seasons, and an unexpected person has a crush on Buffy. I really liked 'A Beautiful Sunset' (#11) more than any other issue, with a great moment where one of the main, masked antagonists is almost revealed. Classic Joss writing.
A new multi-part series kicks off March 5, written by veteran Drew Goddard.
Angel: After the Fall - Issues #1 through #3
As much as I've loved having Buffy back with an eighth season, I had mixed feelings when I heard Angel would be coming back in comic form (and following canon.) Firstly, Dark Horse passed on obtaining the license for the series (a thing I believe they later admitted regretting), meaning the two series would, again, not cross-over into each other. Secondly, I had my own assumption of what happened after the events in the televised "series finale," and I knew they were going completely away from that (not that I felt I was right, mind you, just that they were going for a far-out-there world that could really only work in comics).
I'm happy to report that I was totally wrong to think this series would suck. So far, at three issues in, I'm hooked and loving it. The writing is on-par with what we're used to from the televised show, if not better. The shockers thrown at us early on make fans of the series hungry to read more. It would be difficult to discuss this series with anyone without giving away some sort of spoiler. If you've been wondering if the series is worth picking up, definitely give the first three issues a try. They may be hard to find, though, as I've had to go to the comic store on release day mornings to get a copy before they sell out!
The Stranded - Issue #1
This series bears mention because it's something a television network put out, Sci Fi, along with Virgin Comics. other than that, it's not television related ... yet, at least. I do wonder if the network is trying a new approach by releasing a comic book first, with a show based on it second. So far I'm not sure they could pull it off with the effects intact.
The first issue definitely has me interested to see where they are going with the series, and has a kind-of anime feel to it, though in the theme and not the art.
Serenity: Better Days
This one nearly flew under the radar for me, and I'm glad I caught wind of it early enough to keep a lookout for it next month. This is another series that will be co-written by the man him self, Joss Whedon, and at least according to my contacts at Dark Horse, is considered canon in the Firefly universe. The series is only set to run for three issues, just like the previous series, Serenity: Those Left Behind (which, sadly, I never picked up but plan to.)
'Better Days' takes place in the Firefly timeframe, even though its title indicates it's more movie-related. Somewhat more specifically, the series takes place "before the movie and before certain people were iced." Look for the first issue on March 12.

Bethesda has confirmed that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim on the Xbox 360 has just received a brand new update, taking it to version 1.3 and hopefully fixing lots of issues that appeared since the release of patch 1.2.
Skyrim, although it amazed millions of gamers from all around the world last month when it appeared on the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, is affected by quite a lot of bugs, glitches and issues across all three platforms.
What's more, while plenty of these problems were pretty harmless, the recent patches only made things worse, on the PC, or neglected to fix more serious issues, on the PlayStation 3.
Now, the Xbox 360 edition of Skyrim has received the newest update, 1.3, which was already released for the PC version of the game last week.
No word yet on just what issues are resolved by this update, however, but we'll update you once Bethesda releases more information.

The Airport Basin project now moves into the 60-percent phase following a nearly unanimous vote by county councilors during a special meeting Thursday in Council Chambers.
Public Works Director Kyle Zimmerman walked council through the meeting.
Zimmerman explained the changes and cost savings that have occurred since council approved the 30-percent design phase May 1, 2007. At that time, council approved the addition of Value Engineering Services to the scope of the project, which has facilitated the identification of efficiencies and savings potential.
"Some of the major changes from the 30- to 60-percent design phase include reduced parking," Zimmerman said, adding that they don't need a space for every employee because many employees carpool.
Concrete curb and gutter removal from non-essential locations, retaining wall and slope protection reduction, site layout change to reduce amount of imported fill dirt, change to LED lighting and use of detention ponds are changes that have resulted in greater efficiency as well as project cost savings, he said.

This beauty stands over 9" tall. The decoration on the bottom resembles some of the coloration seen on Loetz Cytisus. I have seen a few examples that have the early Loetz Austria script signature over the years/ see attached. This one is unsigned and I was unable to find the form in any of the current books so far. My claim that its Loetz is supposition at this time. Till pure documentation is located I am comfortable with that. Some may take exception to this.
Special thanks to Dr.Kai Hasselbach for his assistance and to Frank Ford for leading me to this example.

With all of the back and forth from health and nutrition "experts" regarding fats and oils, it's difficult to know what is good for you and what is bad for you. One area of agreement, however, are the benefits of quality monounsaturated fats found in fish and olive oils. Olive oil is high in anti-oxidants and omega-3 fatty acids that can provide a number of health benefits including:
Recent studies are finding additional health benefits associated with olive oil consumption. Despite all of the favorable health benefits, however, this cooking school in Massachusetts recommend preparing meals with olive oil because it tastes better than just about any other fat that you can cook with.
If you've ever gone to the olive oil shelf at your local grocer, you've probably been overwhelmed by the choices available to you. In addition to the number of brands available, there are also several grades from which to choose. So how do you know what to buy and how to use it? Take a look below for some insight:
Other labeling you will see may include:
Whether you buy for the health benefits, the flavor, or both, your favorite recipes will reap the rewards of cooking with olive oil. Just adding this simple ingredient to your recipes will have your meals tasting like they have been made by a graduate of culinary school.

|General Diesel Discussion Discuss everything else pertaining to Diesel Pickups.

|Display Modes
That's the question I get asked more than any other...
"Why do you need such a big, heavy, dino-rig for just you and your tools? Can't you downsize, save fuel, pollute less, go green?"
I figure this might be a good place to get more input than my own.
I'll be the first to answer my own question, I guess...
I chose my rig for a variety of reasons:
First, I need a truck that can not only tote around my trade tools, but my 10,000Lb home, as well. My family and I chose the full-time RV lifestyle a few years ago just for the simple fact that we were bored and tired of seeing our home devalued year-after-year. We figured, why not lighten the load and let the kiddo see what's in the books, rather than reading about it for the next ten years?
Second, I wanted an investment-class machine that can take high-mileage...not a throw-away truck that needs replacing every 100,000 miles. I plan on owning this truck until I retire, and a good, large diesel engine with good maintenance can realistically chart a million miles +...
Third, when I'm cruising from here-to-there, I see alot of lighter rigs involved in TAs...sometimes you can't tell where one ends and the other begins. I've also seen alot of heavy rigs with the glass still in 'em when the other guy driving the econo-box was...ahem..."one with his car". My self and my family are simply safer in a heavy rig...period.
Fourth, while the little go-farts zipping about everywhere are speedy li'l machines...every once in a while I get a chance to blanket their shiny, tiny tuner in black, polluting soot...this brings me pure joy.
What's your story?
I have to admit, I was about to blast you when i read only part of your post...... After reasing completely, I see youarent the tree hugger i asumed you may be.. lol.
Anyway, I choose the PoOwerstroke Diesel, simply because that is what I choose to drive, and i like how diesels sound. I too see a lot of accidents that mangle the lighter, more "efficient" vehicles. I for one choose not to be mangled along with them. I like making my presence known... If you are in my way, you WILL see me and most likely choose to merge and let me pass rather than be ran over. I am not able to leave the carbon footprint that you can, the emissions compliant 6.7L just wont do it. may choose to tune later down the road.
Lol..."treehugger"? Hell, I'm a carpenter!
I do spend more time explaining freedom of choice and common-sense utility than I do just praising the platform's durability and power, though...
Greenies are the bane of my existence sometimes...I've even had my rig keyed by some eco-freak right in front of me back in Virginia because I was "murdering Gaia"....
...That one cost me a day in jail, 6 moths probation and a $1500 fine...but Mr. Green had to pay for the paint job...all-in-all I saved about 2 grand...xD
I agree with you Tug Daddy. We live in our rv also, a 14,000lb toyhauler. I have serious doubts that they'll ever come out with an electric truck that will pull it, so for now, I'll keep filling up the diesel tank and leaving my carbon footprint wherever I can.
I have stated that if they ever do come out with a heavy electric/alternative rig that will pull like mine, with at least a 500 mile range (under load), recharge overnight and last forever...I'd consider it...
But even if it came true, I'd still keep the "grunt" in reserve...xD
Gotta admit...a 100% electric drive train would out-torque any dino-powered rig on any day...for about as long as the battery lasted...not very long, yet.
I think it will be interesting to see why everyone chose this vehicle.. ill keep checking in.
i used to be a full time rver.(welder,ironworker) came home opened my own garage and work on gas vehicles everyday that have alot higher foot print than my 03 f250 7.3 ccsb 4x4 with 290k plus getting 14mpg dirtroad and 18.5mpg bigroad. plan on get at least 290k more. yeah if i want to pull something no problem, want to pull down in the creek get out and swim no problem, want to get cleaned up and load up the wife and cereal eaters and go to church while riding in comfort no problem. reason number 5 this is still america and i choose to drive it because i worked hard to pay for it. its mine i earned it.
I can honestly say fuel is one of the biggest reasons I chose diesel.
Got tired of ethanol in my gas. Tured of paying for super just so my hemi ran "well." Tired of 10-12mpg... (14 at best.) Tired of it stuggling with heavy plowing or towing the boat.
Diesel is not much more than super, but much better mileage, better power, tougher build, and better resale.
I like diesels better than gas. We have two diesels in the household. My wife got her dream car, so she let me get my dream truck. More torque for pulling my trailer and my toys.
I don't think that diesels will ever be replaced by electric trucks. Maybe in the toy trucks but not the super sized. As much as the tree huggers hate it, diesels are the future. The fuel can be made from food waste, algae, old oil, and just about anything. The auto companies are in the early stages of developing diesel motors that are clean burning. Some diesel engines (if not modified), actually burn as clean or cleaner than a conventional gas engine. We're just starting to see some progress in getting better mpg with the clean diesel engines. The 6.7L is a good example.
That being said, we should all be free to drive whatever we want to drive.
I've always wanted an F250 diesel since the Super Duty came out in 99. I was only a freshman in high school then but I knew I'd have one some day. I picked my truck up last year and absolutely love it. Do I need it? Not at all. I don't tow or haul anything heavy but I love the look of the truck. I've had people tell me it's impractical and what not but I don't care. S far as it not being green so what. I burn about a 1000 gallons a day of jet A fuel on my current job so I don't care about how much fuel I burn. My carbon footprint is massive but that's ok. I hate winter.

BIG RAPIDS - Ferris State University's Rankin Art Gallery is featuring "Life Underground," a collection of sculptures and paintings by William Allen, through Feb. 23. Predominantly known for welding sculptures of animals out of steel, Allen's "Life Underground" features sculptures and paintings that were inspired by art of aboriginal cultures such as Africa, Oceania, the Inuit and Australia.
Allen creates his sculptures, many of which are life-size, by welding and shaping wrought iron. He sees his sculptures as an expression of the life and energy he finds in a deeper realm. His work explores the shadow side of life, where death always lies in wait. Through his metal sculptures and paintings, Allen taps into the raw, vibrant spirit that wants to pulsate through all of us.
With an education focused entirely on science and the intention of becoming a doctor, Allen signed up for a poetry class while a senior in college. The class made him realize that he didn't have a passion for medicine and he decided to forgo medical school.
After working a variety of jobs after college, such as a dry cleaner, house-painter and roofer, Allen decided to enroll in a welding class after a conversation he had with a fellow co-worker. The class made Allen realize he wanted to pursue the creative and practical craft of black-smithing wrought iron.
Having spent his childhood at the family cottage on Lake Michigan, Allen had a love for animals. For the next 15 years, Allen developed his skills as a sculptor of welded animals and sold them at art fairs throughout the country.
Not feeling satisfied with only sculpting animals, Allen and his wife moved to New York City in 1996. He began working with different types of materials, such as plaster, epoxy and earthen matter. He began to sculpt characters from his interior world, which made him see the importance of drama in his work. Allen returned to Michigan in the fall of 2000.

|Cocaine Bust at Ingles Food
|Wednesday, 03 October 2007 06:47
Watauga County Sheriff's Office deputies say they have another drug dealer in custody.20-year-old Lora Elizabeth Walker of Deep Gap faces 30 charges, including selling and delivering cocaine, thanks to an undercover operation in the parking lot of Ingles Food in Boone on September 29. 4.5 ounces of cocaine were seized from Walker last week, and a total of 6.1 ounces over the course of the three-week operation. Deputies estimate the street value of the recovered drugs exceeds $17,000. Walker is alleged to have utilized juvenile accomplices from Watauga High School who were also involved in the conspiracy. Two of the juveniles are currently in custody. Walker is being held on an $180,000 bond. Watauga County Sheriff's Office is actively investigating the incident.

Category : Parcs nationaux et réserves marines
Attraction Details :
Sirinat is the marine national park in the north part of Phuket island, covering an area of 90 square kilometers, including a 13-kilometer beachfront coastline. Before 1992, it was formerly known as Nai Yang National Park. The name change was a result of the expansion of Nai Yang National Park, established in 1981, to also cover Mai Khao Beach to celebrate the 60th birthday of Queen Sirikit.
The 13-kilometer coastline of the national park covers four connecting beaches, which are also famous tourism attractions:
● Hat Nai Thon: A peaceful beach that lays underneath pine trees. Naithon offers a laid-back vibe and is suitable for swimming.
● Hat Nai Yang: The original national park since 1081, Nai Yang is serene and isolated, ideal for family picnics by the beach under pine trees. Swimming in the sea during monsoon season is not advised.
● Hat Mai Khao: Phuket's longest beach sits right next to the airport and is home to a cluster of world's top luxury resorts and villas such as Anantara, JW Marriott and Renaissance. Mai Khao is a steep beach with high waves so swimming is not recommended. It is also home to wonderful sea turtles and there's a sea turtle preserving event held annually.
● Hat Sai Kaeo: It is Phuket's northmost beach located to the north, further Mai Khao. Hat Sai Kaeo is blessed with a long white powdery beach naturally decorated with groves of pines along the shore---ideal for relaxation.
● Mangrove Forest: Located in near the island's northmost tip in the area of Tha Chatchai, the mangrove forest covers an area of approximately 320 acres and features interesting walking trails for those wishing to learn more about the mangrove forest.

February 20, 2012 | Featured in the Winter 2012 Issue You may have seen your school's Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) cadets post the colors, drill outdoors or wear their uniforms, but have you taken the time to find out if the program is right for you? What Is JROTC? JROTC is a high school program offered by most branches of the U.S. Armed Forces that teaches leadership and physical fitness. Unlike ROTC programs in colleges and universities, JROTC does not require military service, and it offers no opportunity to enter the military with a higher rank upon graduation. So, what's the point of taking JROTC credits? Get a Taste of Military Life If you are considering joining the military after high school, JROTC presents an opportunity to find out what life as a soldier is really like. In JROTC, you'll undergo military-style physical fitness training, drill like a soldier and learn leadership skills from a mentor with years of battlefield experience. Although you won't be pressured to enlist in the military, you will get a clear taste of what life would be like if you did decide to enlist. Take Advantage of Academic Benefits If you're planning to go to college, JROTC can help you get ahead in a number of ways. For example, you'll have access to free SAT and ACT study help. You may also have an opportunity to compete for ROTC scholarships and earn college credit for your JROTC classes. Face New Challenges JROTC has a lot to offer students who love a challenge. From shooting to rappelling to wilderness survival, JROTC cadets get away from the classroom and learn some truly unique skills. Many schools even take part in regional competitions, where cadets run obstacle courses and take on other challenges that test their skills against those of their counterparts from other JROTC programs around the country. Even if you don't plan to enter the military, JROTC can provide you with some great life experiences. Talk to your guidance counselor for more information about your school's JROTC program.

Both public and private payers have come to recognize the importance of experimentation with physician payment methodologies that incentivize medical practices to expand the provision of preventive services, improve clinical outcomes, and enhance patient safety and satisfaction. These incentive programs, known collectively as "pay for performance" programs, have the potential to increase physician use of health information technology, evidence-based clinical guidelines, and administrative and clinical "best practices." They may also increase access to appropriate and timely care.
The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) recognizes the need to reform physician payment, including pay for performance as one approach. However, there are a multitude of organizational, technical, legal, and ethical challenges to designing and implementing pay for performance programs. The AAFP also recognizes that there are both advantages (increased payment, improved efficiency and quality) and disadvantages (cost of acquiring information technology, multiple programs and guidelines, data collection) to such programs as they are currently designed and implemented. Payers' physician measurement processes used to rate/designate family physicians should be transparent and adhere to the AAFP policies on Performance Measures Criteria, Physician Profiling, Data Stewardship, and Transparency.
The AAFP supports pay for performance (PFP) programs that adhere to these principles:
The AAFP will use its influence to support and encourage experimentation using the following guidelines:

Palmetto Alcohol Question
Sunday sales back on ballot
by Sarah Fay Campbell
Two years after Palmetto narrowly voted against allowing Sunday sales of package alcohol, the question of accepting beer, wine, and liquor transactions will be on the ballot again in the Nov. 5 city election, along with a city council election.
Palmetto was the only city in the metro Atlanta area, and one of just a handful of cities and counties in the state, that rejected Sunday sales.
November 2011 was the first opportunity Georgians had to vote on the issue.
The vote then was 314-297 in Palmetto against package sales.
During the same election, Palmetto voters nevertheless approved Sunday alcohol sales by the drink by a vote of 309-298.
Palmetto City Manager Bill Shell said several stores have asked that the issue be put before voters once again.
On U.S. Hwy 29, the 29 Mini Mart, a small convenience store in Coweta County, is currently able to sell on Sunday. But just next door, a mere 10 yards away, DJ's Grocery finds itself within the city of Palmetto, and can't sell.
The owners of DJ's "asked us to try again," Shell said. Representatives from other stores have also inquired about when the city would put the question back before voters.
Also on the ballot will be five candidates for three seats on the Palmetto City Council. All candidates run together, while voters choose three. Incumbents Laura Mullis, Lucinda Rockemore and Gregory Rusch are being challenged by Michael Arnold and Franklin Smith.
Early voting in the Palmetto races starts Monday at city hall and will be held from 9 to 5 p.m. City elections are still done on paper ballots, not on electronic voting machines, said Shell. Palmetto residents who live in Coweta County should vote at Palmetto City Hall, not the Coweta Voter Registration Office. Palmetto City Hall is located at 509 Toombs St.

About fifty residents gathered at Pleasant Valley Elementary Thursday night to hear from insurance experts about filing claims and what to expect from insurance companies.
"When a situation arises, that's what you have regulators for," Nevada Division of Insurance representative Marie Holt said. "We oversee the insurance companies as well as the agents and make sure what the insurance companies are offering is what the policy holder is going to receive in the event of a loss."
When it comes to filing a claim, Holt says the most important thing homeowners can do is take their time and do their homework.
"Don't get in a hurry to settle a claim," Holt said. "It's important to make sure, yes, you're reimbursed but that you're reimbursed for the total amount of the loss. Remember, your insurance policy is there to make you whole."
The Washoe Drive Fire tore through Pleasant Valley last Thursday. The elementary school was evacuated.
"When I burst through the doors to get to the bus it was really hard to breathe," 3rd grader Madison Lowery said. "We were all coughing and when we got to Damonte everyone was freaking out. I could see my sister from where I was sitting with my friends-you know what they say, stick with friends- but the whole thing was really hard."
Her little sister Brooke says she wasn't scared but a lot of her friends were.
"Most of my friends were crying on the bus," 1st grader Brooke Lowery said. "They were worried about their stuff, one of my friends had half of their house burn down."
The Washoe County Sheriff's Office is trying to help those affected by the fire with their immediate needs.
"We want to provide any assistance we can, it may be as simple as helping them get a new driver's license," WCSO Capt. Russell Pedersen said. "Right now we just don't have all the contact information we need because a lot of phone numbers we have are residential and those homes have been lost. So we're hoping to get cell numbers and addresses of where people are staying so we can follow up with them."
He says their office has set up a line at (775) 325-6927 to help fire victims.
"Maybe they lost their vehicle and need help getting down to the DMV to get their new license," Pedersen said. "We certainly want to help in any way we can. And we might not be able to personally provide everyone with assistance, but we want to identify their needs and get them in contact with the proper resources."
Natural Resource Specialist Ed Smith says a valuable asset is the living with fire program.
"The living with fire program- www.livingwithfire.info – this is the collective effort of Northern Nevada's local, state and federal firefighting agencies and the University of Nevada Cooperative Extension coming together to put all the important wildfire threat reduction information we know that's tailor-fitted to Nevada in one place," Smith said.
Next Monday there will be a forum on post-fire landscape care at Pleasant Valley Elementary and on Tuesday Smith will talk about reducing fire hazards around your home.
"I'm going to present Be Ember Prepared" Smith said. "It's a 30-minute video we put together that talks about 22 locations on your home that are vulnerable to ember attack. Embers played a huge role in the Washoe Drive Fire and the Caughlin Fire and there are a number of good mitigation measures people can take that can really reduce the potential of losing your home during a fire."
Both those presentations start at 6 p.m.

FALMOUTH, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Police are looking for whoever fired shots along Route 1 early Wednesday morning. It happened at the home located at 407 US Route 1, not far from the Cumberland town line.
Police say several shots were fired into the home just past 2:00am. Four adults and one child live there, but no one was hurt. No one is in custody and police aren't speculating on a motive for the shootings.
We expect more information later in the day.

Customer Reviews:
Rated 4.6 out of 5�by 11 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by J excellent sock does what they say it does. get me warm and dry sitting in both ground blind and in the field in low 20's. Washed once and looks new, time will tell but so far worth the money. I have "average" calf size and goes up all the way and stays there. November 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Capt. Trap Good for achin' feet I like this nice heavy, well-cushioned pair of socks. They ease the pain of my poor arthritic feet (Lyme disease). June 3, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by Hippie66 Decent, but not enough to keep toes warm I bought a pair to wear with my waders for winter kayak fishing and wade fishing for trout. They are OK, but not enough to keep my toes warm when temps are below freezing or wading in the Lower Illinois River. They might be ok along with silk liners and foot warmers. January 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by earlyriser Hunting socks Bought for my son....He loves them, sized right, very warm and comfortable to wear. December 26, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by MrsAtmonger12 Good product My husband loves SmartWool socks. He often works outdoors in freezing temperatures and goes hunting in the winter and these really keep his feet warm and comfortable. They are a little pricey but worth it. December 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by BT Very warm and very comfortable A nice thick, warm, comfortable sock. Definitely recommend for the cold winter. December 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Derek Always a pleasure They feel super thick, but they stretch a little thinner when worn. This is a great sock for stand hunting and stalking on those cold days. It is the only over the calf hunting sock that smartwool has. If you want a thinner over the calf sock, don't be afraid to search their skiing or snowboarding line. All of my smartwool socks outlast my tee shirts and jeans, and keep me warm even when wet. The price tags are a little scary, but worth it... Especially if you can grab them on sale. December 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5�by Debbie828 Best Hunting Socks Ever!!! 5 Stars across the board except for price. Hard to find so buy extras when you fiind them. November 14, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5�by Staceman Best Hunting Sock Ever Quite possibly the best cold-weather hunting sock ever - and a great value: 3 seasons ago I purchased my first pair of these because I was disappointed with how other name-brand hunting socks I'd tried over the years retained their shape/fit. To-date that first pair fits (and looks) almost as good as the day they came out of the box whereas most of those other brands became shapeless rags after only a handful of wearings and washings. I would recommend these to the all-day stand sitter or the the all-day tracker and they're an especially great wader sock on cold duck hunting mornings. November 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5�by John Great Hunting Sock Fits very well. The sock is very warm without being overly bulky like your traditional 100% wool sock. Keeps it form around you calf and does not slink around your ankle as the day goes on. I have read some reviews stating it is very tight in the calf but that has not happened to me. I am 6 feet tall and 200 lbs and active so I would say I have average circumference calfs. I wear size 12 in all my dress shoes and boots and I went with the sock in size Large, men's 9-11.5; the XL heel pad was up on my achilles and fit a little loose. I bought 2 pair for this upcoming Minnesota and Wisconsin deer gun season. Buy them when you can because they are hard to find in stores! The only negative is that they pilled up a little while wearing some duck boots where the top of the boot rubbed the sock. October 22, 2012

Moving....the Fresh Start
This word either brings horror or terror into a family's heart. It is very difficult to move whether you are a family of one, or a family of many. Picking up roots is not always an easy thing to do even if the "move" is wanted.
When the move is to benefit the family this may make it easier, but it will still have its hardships. If the move is unwanted, or is due to pure necessity, it may be difficult to accomplish without a lot of drama. Here are some tips that may make moving a little bit easier:
1. The best way to deal with a move is to sit and talk about it first. Start with the adults and then add the kids to the conversation. Just general conversation gets "moving" out into the open, no longer allowed to lurk in the corner. Shine a light on this mission impossible and start making it become manageable.
2. If you are moving a loved one into a new home, this can be a bit more complicated. There will be some resistance because more than likely it is not "their idea" in the first place. Again, sit down and talk about the move. Explain the benefits and future ideas of doing the move now and not later.
3. When possible, major changes should be done to the new property (like scrapping acoustic ceilings, changing carpet or putting in woodfloors) before you move into your new home. If you want to paint a fresh coat of white paint onthe walls before the big move in that is good...However, if you want color on your walls, it is best to wait until you are settled in. Things change once the furniture is placed in its' new home. What looked good in the old house can change drastically in the new house.
4. Think about paring down personal property.The first thing to do is throw out items that have seen better days. If you have children each one does his or her own room. This is important....throw junk OUT. Don't worry about the garage sale idea till later, at this point it is strictly throwing out.
5. Next, organize items for a garage sale. These are items that can be sold....the junk should be gone...gone...gone...... Put price tags on al lthe items, have lots of change on hand and be sure to place an ad in the paper for the sale. You want folks to KNOW about the sale not just stumble upon it....because you need to sell items. Once the sale is over, anything left over goes into bags and straight into the car. Drive to the nearest donation center and do not stop to go over the items...just give the bags to the center.
6. The next step is to box up items by room. Then box up the breakables by room. Then any items you really are worried about box up and put in your car. Don't have the moving company take them...you take them. This will keep a lot of stress out of the move.
7. The biggest thing to remember if you are moving a loved one... be VERY RESPECTFUL of their property. It's easy to get overwhelmedand start rushing thru things. Have and set aside a WHOLE LOT of time to go thru their items methodically; this will help in the long runto relieve some of the moving stress on you, and on them.
Lastly, moving day... the only thing to accomplish is to have the boxes set up in the correct rooms. Unpacking is strictly for the following days to come. We emphasize communication as a huge part of keeping a "move" from becoming absolutely unbearable. Keep the lines of communication open amongst all family members... and hopefully luck will follow.

Abortion lobby uses Haitian tragedy for fundraising plea
Catholic World News - January 22, 2010
The International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) responded to the devastating earthquake in Haiti with a plea for emergency funding, announcing a special mission to support family-planning clinics in the impoverished country. The IPPF approach contrasted with that taken by pro-life activists, who sent a medical team to Port au Prince to help women preparing for childbirth under extremely difficult conditions.

"Rock of Ages,†a love letter to 1980s classic rock music, has come to theaters this summer with an all-star ensemble cast and plenty of lip-synching. With a few exceptions, however, the much-hyped big-screen adaptation directed by Adam Shankman fails to strike the same chord as the 2006 Chris D'Arienzo Broadway musical of the same name upon which it is based.
Part "Burlesque,†part "Coyote Ugly,†"Rock of Ages†is the story of Sherrie (Julianne Hough of "Dancing with the Starsâ€), a small-town Oklahoma girl who comes to Hollywood with dreams of making it big.
Shortly after arriving, she meets Drew (Diego Boneta), an aspiring rocker working at The Bourbon Room, a popular nightclub on the Sunset Strip. Drew gets her a job as a waitress at the club, and the two hit it off immediately.
The Bourbon Room is managed by Dennis Dupree (Alec Baldwin) and Lonny (Russell Brand). The club is in dire financial straits, and they're counting on a show by rock legend Stacee Jaxx (Tom Cruise), a long-time acquaintance of Dupree's, to keep them solvent.
Cruise, who turns 50 next month, is magnificent as Jaxx, the former lead singer of the fictional band Arsenal who is now performing as a solo act. Jaxx is the archetype of the hard-drinking, eccentric, oversexed rock god, and he perfectly embodies the decadence and excesses of rock and roll in the 80s.
Cruise's charisma is undeniable, and his performance is reminiscent of his role as misogynistic seduction guru Frank T.J. Mackey in Paul Thomas Anderson's 1999 "Magnolia,†for which he received an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor, another small role amid a great ensemble cast.
The night of the show, Jaxx arrives at the club, and, while swilling a ubiquitous bottle of whiskey, conducts an interview with Rolling Stone reporter Constance Sack (Malin Akerman), a buttoned-down blond bombshell. Akerman, however, like the rest of the cast is no match for Cruise's acting chops.
When the opening band cancels at the last minute, Dupree allows Drew and his bandmates, who also work at the club, to fill in and open for Jaxx. The band is a big hit, and a combination of Drew's newfound success and a misunderstanding with Sherrie drive the two apart (at least temporarily).
Meanwhile, a subplot follows Los Angeles mayor Mike Whitmore (Bryan Cranston) and his wife Patricia (Catherine Zeta-Jones) as they wage a campaign to rid the city of the rock-and-roll counter culture they feel is corrupting the youth of the City of Angels.
The musical performances are decent, but they feel somehow over-produced. On their first date, Drew confesses his stage fright to Sherrie, saying he thinks it may prevent him from becoming a big-time star. His first performance, however, is slick and polished – not surprising given that every song is lip-synched from a track cut in the studio.
I recommend this movie for Tom Cruise's portrayal of Stacee Jaxx, but the constant interruption of campy musical performances with elaborate choreography is distracting, and the movie doesn't shine as much as it should given its significant star power.
"Rock of Ages†is rated PG-13.Â

As Bearers Of God's Good News
Jesus said in Mark 16:15: "Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation." With that commission we believe God called everyone to missions in some capacity. We all have Good News to share!
Some have been called to go, others have been called to support financially, many are prayer warriors, and still others help with responsibilities "at home" — in our meetings, yearly meetings, Friends United Meeting, within local communities, and, literally, at home—in practical and important ways. There is a place for everyone in missions, and we must all partner together in order to accomplish God's will in the world. God works in amazing ways and through really amazing people—and you are one of them!
It is difficult to serve in a country where there aren't many Quakers to lean on and share in our immediate moments of joy and concern. And yet, in so many ways, Friends are here with us in Belize. Scripture says, "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them" (Matthew 18:20). We have experienced and believe that even though we may not be together in the same place, we are "gathered together" for the same purpose. The Spirit can span the distance, and that indeed is a great blessing. So let's go out — responding in the unique way God is calling each one of us—and share the Good News together!
Sam and Becky Barber
Query for Reflection
How have I responded to the Great Commission and been a bearer of God's Good News?
Action Step
Make a list of all the ways a person could be called to missions. Consider how each one is an opportunity to share God's Good News. Choose one that resonates with you and do it!
Prayer Focus
Lord, thank you for your commission to share the Good News to the ends of the earth. Use me to further the Gospel message and purify my heart so that I may be a Living Witness to your redeeming love and grace.

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said he expects former walk-on running back Dominique Whaley to pick up where he left off last season.
Whaley's breakout debut ended midway through the season when he suffered a broken ankle at Kansas State.
Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said he expects former walk-on running back Dominique Whaley to pick up where he left off last season.
Whaley's breakout debut ended midway through the season when he suffered a broken ankle at Kansas State.
Stoops was asked Monday during the Big 12 teleconference if Whaley can be the same player he was last season when Whaley rushed for 627 yards and nine touchdowns, essentially in six games since he was injured on the first offensive series in Manhattan.
"I really think so," Stoops said. "In my mind he looks to be back to what Dom always was, that's explosive, strong, fast. Whether he's 100 percent or not, maybe only he and the good Lord really know. But he sure looks it to me. I'm hopeful that will be the case."
Here's a look at what else Stoops had to say during the teleconference:
Improvements made by quarterback Landry Jones, a four-year starter: "A lot of what he's always done his great leadership and hard work. But I believe we'll see more consistency because of two reasons. I believe he's a better player. He's more mobile this year. He's throwing a great ball. He's even improved that. And I believe players around him will be more consistent. That position needs (to be) supported. Hopefully the players around him I believe have a chance to be more consistent and be better this year."
New rule of kickoffs moving up five yards and touchbacks being brought out to the 25-yard line: "What you're really going to have to gauge is watching all these NFL preseason games everyone is trying to gauge how long the ball is in the air. If they line drive it and you catch it five yards deep you still have a chance to get it out to the 25 or better. If it's hung up there a pretty good while and you catch it three or four yards deep you might just want to keep it in there. They're five yards closer to you in the cover team and you're going to get it at the 25... I think anything that can help with the injuries is positive. Heck, the NFL is doing it, we ought to do it. Some of the big blows and big injuries come on those big collisions on kickoffs. To limit some of those is a good thing."
Defensive line newcomers filling voids left by two players leaving for the NFL and another being suspended: "I've been real pleased. Overall the guys up front are doing a really good job. R.J. Washington, David King and Chuka Ndulue have really been consistent. Rashod Favors, a young guy we moved over from linebacker, has made significant improvement. That's going to help. And we have two young guys, freshmen that as time goes I think can help us. Jordan Phillips, a new guy up front inside, has really made great improvement to go with the talent that he has. That can help us in there, too."

Top Muslim Declares All Christians 'Infidels'
Quoting the Quran (correctly) may be fueling the recent slaughter of Christians in Egypt.
October 28, 2011 - 3:00 pm
MEMRI, for instance, recently published a report titled "The Sheikh of Al Azhar in an Exceptionally Tolerant Article: Christianity, Judaism Share Basic Tenets of Islam." Of course, the day after this report appeared, the same sheikh insisted that the American ambassador wear a hijab when meeting him: just as Muslim "radicals" compel Christian girls to wear the hijab, "moderate" Al Azhar compels U.S. diplomats.
In short, yes, there are commonalities, but they are secondary to the differences, which are more final and define the relationship. Or, to put it in Ali Gomaa's paradigm: Fine, Christianity and Islam share similar tenets — but, by the way: "Infidels are those who say God is the Christ, son of Mary."
The fact is, this Quranic verse is as much a cornerstone of Islam's view of Christianity as the unity of God and Christ is a cornerstone of Christianity, articulated some 1700 years ago in the Nicene Creed. The issue is clear cut for all involved.
Accordingly, how can one fault Gomaa? As grand mufti, he is simply being true to Islam's teachings. Indeed, his consistency is more commendable than the equivocations of Western ecumencalists who, by falling over themselves to assure Muslims that they all essentially believe in the same things, demonstrate, especially to Muslims, that they believe in nothing.
Incidentally, if Gomaa upholds the plain teachings of the Quran concerning who is an infidel, is it not fair to assume he also upholds the Quran's teachings on how to treat them, as commanded in Quran 9: 29: "Fight … the People of the Book [Jews and Christians] until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued." Of course, prudent Muslims, undoubtedly like Gomaa himself, know that now is not the time to talk openly about such things.
Either way, here is another reminder of how Quranic verses and terms that Western people brush aside as arcane or irrelevant have a tremendous impact on current events — such as the Maspero massacre: For the same word Gomaa used to describe Christians is the same word Muslim soldiers used when they opened fire on and ran over Christians; the same word twenty Muslim soldiers used as they tortured a protesting Christian; and the same word Muslims hurled at Christians during the funeral procession for their loved ones slain at Maspero: infidel.
