State of the Union: A Recap for Parents Who Missed ItDana Rousmaniere
During tonight's State of the Union address, many parents were so busy putting kids to bed, packing tomorrow's lunches, and paying bills that you may not have had time to tune in. Here's a quick recap of President Obama's speech (paraphrased), on a few of the topics that are important for America's families:
[Note: This is a paraphrase of Obama's words, not mine. I'll be sure to post tomorrow on my big idea for America's future.]
On the Race to Educate Our Kids:
As many as a quarter of our students aren't even finishing high school. America is falling behind in the proportion of young people with college degrees, at a time when we need college degrees more than ever. Every child deserves a chance to succeed, and the responsibility begins in our homes and in our communities—in our families. Parents are the first to instill the love of learning in a child. Only parents can make sure that the TV is turned off and that homework gets done. We need to teach our kids that it's not just the winner of the Super Bowl who deserves to be celebrated, but the winner of the science fair. We need to teach kids that success is not a function of fame and PR, but hard work and discipline.
On Our Schools:
Our schools share the responsibility of educating our children. A classroom should be a place of high expectations and high performance, but too many schools don't pass the test. The "Race to the Top" competition is changing that: All 50 states have been challenged to improve student achievement, in exchange for funding. This has been the most meaningful reform of public schools in a generation. It has led over 40 states to raise their standards for teaching and learning. "Race to the Top" should be the approach we follow this year as we replace No Child Left Behind with a law that's more flexible and focused on what's best for our kids. Teachers should be viewed as "nation builders," as they are in countries like South Korea. We need to treat our teachers with the same level of respect. We want to reward good teachers and stop making excuses for bad ones. Over the next 10 years, with so many baby boomers retiring, we need to prepare 100,000 new teachers in science, engineering and math. And to every young person listening tonight: If you want to make a difference in the life of our nation, become a teacher. Your country needs you.
On College and College Tuition:
The education race doesn't end with a high school diploma. To compete, higher education must be within the reach of everyone in America. Our government is working to make college more affordable by ending subsidies to banks and by making a permanent tuition tax credit worth $10,000 for four years of college, because "it's the right thing to do." Because people need to be able to train for new jobs. We also need to revitalize community colleges. Obama referenced Kathy Proctor, a mother of two who's worked in the North Carolina furniture industry since she was 18 years old, who's now earning a biotech degree at age 55, not just because furniture jobs are gone, but because she wants to inspire her children to pursue their dreams. She said: "I hope it shows them to never give up." Obama said: "If we take these steps to give kids the best possible chance at an education, we will reach the goal that I set two years ago… by the end of the decade, America will once again have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world."
On Simplifying Our Taxes:
Tonight, Obama talked about simplifying the complicated tax system in order to level the playing field and to use the savings to bring down our nation's deficit.
On Safeguarding the American People:
Obama said that he will not hesitate to create or enforce common-sense safeguards to protect the American people. "That's why our food is safe to eat, our water safe to drink, and our air is safe to breath." (I might argue otherwise.) "That's why we have speed limits and child labor laws. Why we put in place consumer protections by credit card companies, new rules to prevent another financial crisis, and rules to prevent health insurance companies from exploiting patients."
On Health Care:
There are obviously concerns about the new health care law. Anything can be improved. If you have ideas to improve it by making care better or affordable, Obama is eager to work with you. What he's not willing to do is go back to the days when insurance companies could deny someone coverage because of a preexisting condition. Uninsured students should be able to stay on their parents' coverage. Obama also suggests reforming medical malpractice laws to reign in frivolous lawsuits.
On Our Debts:
Let's make sure that we're not buried under a mountain of debt. We have to confront the fact that our government spends more than it takes in. Every day, families sacrifice to live within their means. They deserve a government that does the same. (Who can argue with that?) Obama is proposing that starting this year, we freeze annual domestic spending for the next five years, which would bring us to the lowest deficit since Dwight Eisenhower was president. Obama acknowledges that it will be painful, and that he's proposing cuts to things he cares deeply about, like community action programs. He says: "What we can honestly afford to do without? But let's make sure that we're not doing it on the backs of our most vulnerable citizens… and let's make sure that what we're cutting really is excess weight. Cutting the deficit by gutting our investments in innovation is like lightening an airplane by gutting the engine. It won't be long til you feel the impact."
On Our Retirement Options:
Obama is looking for a bipartisan solution to strengthen Social Security for future generations, without putting at risk retirees, or people with disabilities, without slashing benefits for future generations, and without making retirement benefits privy to the whims of the stock market. He proposes no tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans to pay for this. "Before we take money away from our schools or scholarships away from our students, we should ask millionaires to give up their tax cuts—it's not about punishing their success, it's about promoting America's success."
On Gays in the Military, Clean Energy, Special Interests, and More:
Other topics that Obama addressed that, of course, pertain to families included investments in clean and renewable energies, reorganizing the government to make it run more efficiently, and getting rid of earmarks for special interests. Obama discussed reigning in and securing nuclear weapons, bringing troops home, and protecting the country's borders without sacrificing the basic principles on which our democracy was founded. He spoke about gays in the military and said "Starting this year, no American will be forbidden from serving the country they love because of who they love. With the change, I call on all of our college campuses to open doors to military recruiters and ROTC and to leave behind the divisive battles of the past and move forward as one nation."
In Summary:
Obama discussed reforming our schools, changing the way we use energy, reducing our deficit, and the fact that none of it will be easy and that all of it will take time. And it will be harder because we will argue about everything the costs, the details, the letter of every law. He said: "Of course, some countries don't have this problem. If the central government wants a railroad, they build a railroad, no matter how many homes get bulldozed. And yet, as contentious and frustrating and messy as our democracy can sometimes be, I know there isn't a person here who would trade places with any other nation on earth. (I might argue that some new parents would like to trade places with parents in Sweden…more on that to come.)
In Conclusion:
Obama said: "This is a place that says you can make it if you try. We believe in the same dream that says this is a country that says anything is possible, no matter where you come from. That dream is why I can stand here before you tonight why a working class kid from Scranton (Joe Biden) can sit behind me. That dream is why someone who swept the floors of his father's bar (John Boehner) can be Speaker of the House of the greatest nation on earth. We do big things. From the earliest days of our founding, we have been ordinary people who dare to dream. That's how we win the future. We are a nation that says 'I may not have a lot of money or come from a family of college graduates, but I have an idea.'" Obama concluded by saying: "We do big things. The idea of America endures. Our destiny remains our choice. It's because of our people that our journey is hopeful and the state of our union is strong."

The Junior Program
Hawaii State Ballet is noted for its excellence in training in the state of Hawaii, and has also been acknowledged by ballet schools on the mainland.
Children are enrolled in the school in the beginning levels, or by a class audition for the higher levels. Beginning ballet classes offer a simple introduction to the art form. Students are progressed up the nine levels of the Junior Program as their individual abilities develop and improve. The number of classes per week increases to assure proper conditioning for the more difficult ballet vocabulary.
Pointe work begins when the student achieves proper and consistent technique, strength and alignment, and has progressed to the fourth level class. Advanced Junior Company level classes require more discipline, dedication and focus in order to attain the technical proficiency and meet the demands required of a professional dancer.
Creative Movement
A whirlwind of creative fun specifically for 3 year olds. Age appropriate introductory dance movement for little ones, taps into your child's love of imagination, music, and rhythm, and develops strong motor skills and musicality.

Business Briefs 2/16/2013
EU boosts checks for horsemeat
LONDON - European Union countries are going ahead with a plan for more intensive checks to detect horsemeat in food labeled as beef as they try to contain a widening scandal.
An emergency meeting was held Friday in Brussels in a bid to restore consumer confidence following the discovery of significant amounts of horsemeat in products sold as beef. Millions of burgers and frozen meals have been recalled across Europe.
Horsemeat will now be tested for phenylbutazone, or bute, an anti-inflammatory veterinary drug that's illegal to use in animals used for food.
BMW recall hits 30,000 SUVs
DETROIT - BMW is recalling more than 30,000 SUVs to fix an oil leak that can knock out the power-assisted braking.
The German automaker says the recall covers X5 SUVs in the U.S. from the 2007 through 2010 model years. The vehicles were made between Sept. 12, 2006, and March 18, 2010. They have eight-cylinder engines.
The company will replace a brake vacuum line hose for free. The recall is expected to start this month.
German strike grounds flights
BERLIN - Thousands of air travelers are stranded in Germany after security personnel walked off the job at two airports in a wage dispute.
Security workers at Hamburg and Cologne airports went on strike Friday, causing more than 200 flights to be canceled at the airports.
The country's main hubs, Frankfurt and Munich, were not affected.

Can we all get together and raise money to buy a new Cy that is more of our new color scheme. I never noticed how painfully bright red he is until we changed. It is bad. How much is a new Cy...same design just different color? $15,000?
Always buying historically relevant ISU gear
it'd take 4 or 5 costumes, and thats just athletics. Also, Cy is currently the color of an actual Cardinal. Real Cardinal birds aren't maroon like we've taken to
We were a bit bright for a while, but I prefer the bright to the borderline maroon some of our teams have for uniforms right now
Oh we will fight, fight, fight for Iowa State,
and may her colors ever fly!!!
In Accordance with Prophecy
I honestly don't think the color it is that bad. What does bother me about Cy after the logo change is that it almost appears they stitched over the old ISU logo and put the new I State logo right over it and it looks almost like a bib. You obviously don't notice it when cy wears a jersey or something. But we did win money for the mascot program by winning the capital one mascot challenge. I wonder if they used that at all and what for.
Yeah, the new "I-State" logo looks pretty cheesy on Cy. Kinda like what it'd look like if I was the one who sewed it on...
"It's appropriate for leaders sometimes to move boldly against the flow of public opinion," she said. "That's called leadership." --- Sarah Swisher (D), Superdelegate, Iowa City
I stand by my opinion that Cy is a TERRIBLE shade of red, and painful to look at. And yes, it looks like he is wearing a bib.
I stand by my opinion that Cy better not turn to a color that makes him look like he belongs with Texas A&M
Originally Posted by Flag Guy

happy medium?
Maybe, but like I said, Cy is a cardinal, and a cardinal is a fairly bright red. I can see where he'd clash with our teams a bit, since the primary color now is dark and the 2ndary (which doesn't make it on the uniforms) is bright, but really the color was good for what he is
PM cyman1189. He's Cy
Maybe a bit darker... problem is they probably have limited color choices and could wind up like the damn dance squad was last year... way too dark
Originally Posted by Flag Guy

Oh, I know! They likely would screw it up. But he is definitely INTENSE in Hilton color wise. Maybe if they just lay him out in the sun all summer it will tone him down a little bit with some fading. That seems to fit in the ISU budget.
I think Cy is good as is. But I do think he should also avoid not wearing some sort of Cyclone apparel around. The I-State logo does a look a little weird.

This. Before the logo change, the ISU on him looked great but something about the I State makes it look cheesy. As I said before, it almost looks like Cy is wearing a bib or something. I understand they don't have the money to get a new mascot suit but use some of the Capital One mascot challenge money to make the new stitching look good on Cy.
Cy is fine the way he is.

A Northerly 30-40 knotter predicted for tomorrow made us hastily turn back. A northerly is the only wind direction that provides a sloppy wave action in the marina. Because of this e felt we had to go back and move the boat to another slip. Since we do not have a fixed slip here, we'll have to use anyone where the owner, or more specifically, his boat, is nfor whatever reason not here.
So, tomorrow (we arrived here at 1AM) we'll move Röde Orm to a more protected slip.
Today's picture is showing some nice spring flowers. Unfortunately I forgot to bring the camera to the house, so this pic was on Google, courtesy Gamleby/Västervik
Spent this weekend in our shore-base in Gamleby 470 km N of Falsterbo Kanal. A little more than two months(!) laundry had to be taken care of and lots of winter stuff to be stored away in the house as well as another lot of boat stuff to be brought back to the boat.
The weather is just wonderful here. This fact, together with my parents joining us will probably mean we'll be staying here a few days more.
The luxury of a bathroom with a tub and hot water, a king size bed and a 'real' kitchen is hard to turn down after all. We are having B BQ'-s every night in the garden while the birds are entertaining us.
After the engine alignment and the installation of the new propeller, it was a bit exciting to leave the dock for a 20 minutes trial. Everything seemed in good order and the engine really works smoothly now.
Today's picture shows the new stickers Isabelle gave me for my birthday. In all modesty, we must admit that we like it.
...guess Röde Orm does too! :-D
At last! Nearly four weeks on the hard and today Röde Orm was splashed again. very nice feeling to step down to the boat rather than climb up to it on a ladder

|Oracle FAQ
|Your Portal to the Oracle Knowledge Grid
Home -> Community -> Usenet -> comp.databases.theory -> Re: Nested Sets Insertion
>> INSERT and UPDATE statements that can append a child to a node and
update the left and right values of the affected nodes. <<
The nested set model has an implied ordering of siblings which the adjacency list model does not. To insert a new node, G1, under part G. We can insert one node at a time like this:
DECLARE rightmost_spread INTEGER;
SET rightmost_spread
INSERT INTO Frammis (part, lft, rgt)
VALUES ('G1', rightmost_spread, (rightmost_spread + 1)); COMMIT WORK;
END; The idea is to spread the lft and rgt numbers after the youngest child of the parent, G in this case, over by two to make room for the new addition, G1. This procedure will add the new node to the rightmost child position, which helps to preserve the idea of an age order among the siblings.
To convert a nested sets model into an adjacency list model:
SELECT B.emp AS boss, P.emp
FROM OrgChart AS P
LEFT OUTER JOIN OrgChart AS B ON B.lft = (SELECT MAX(lft) FROM OrgChart AS S WHERE P.lft > S.lft AND P.lft < S.rgt);Received on Sat May 10 2003 - 22:16:24 CDT

No More Working Mom Guilt: Why Work Can Be GoodNichole
Before I was even pregnant with my first child, I knew that I would be a stay-at-home mother.
That decision was one of the many important things that my husband and I agreed on from the start.
My mother stayed home with me when I was a child and I will never find the words to express just how much her sacrifices have meant to me.
I was certain that to be the best mother possible, I had to be at home.
So, I gave up my career and stayed home without hesitation.
And over time, I lost bits and pieces of myself.
I became Katie and Matthew's mom.
And I couldn't find Nichole anymore.
I loved being here at home with them, but they became the only thing for me to focus on. Over time, I turned into Smother Mother.
It wasn't until Katie was nearly 3 and Matthew was 5 months old that I realized that something had to give. I needed something more.
So I began blogging and doing freelance work. While I am still at home and plan to stay here, I have found a way to engage my mind in a way that I wasn't doing before.
(To learn more about how I reached the decision to begin working, you can read my story here.)
Being in full-mommy mode wasn't healthy for my kids.
Katie began to flourish in interesting ways once I had some other things on my plate.
She grew more independent and self-assured, no doubt from a break from my constant worrying over her during every waking moment.
Turns out, there might be something to the idea that they grew healthier as I did.
A recent study of nearly 19,000 British children, conducted by Anne McMunn, a senior research fellow in the department of epidemiology and public health at the University College of London, provides some interesting results.
The study concluded that "[g]irls with stay-at-home moms were six times as likely to develop behavior and emotional problems as those with working moms. When the researchers took factors such as maternal depression into account, girls with stay-at-home moms were still twice as likely to have developed behavior and emotional problems as those with working moms."
When raising my children was the only thing that brought me a sense of accomplishment, I knew that we were in an unhealthy place.
McMunn speculates that "[i]t may be something to do with gender role modeling…[t]here may be something that is very important for girls about seeing their mother participating in society outside the home."
So, my take from this is that if you plan to return to work and you've been feeling guilty about it, don't.
And if you have decided to be a stay-at-home mom, your children might just benefit from you having other pursuits as well.
Whether we work inside or outside the home, the bottom line is that when we find balance and fulfillment as mothers, we're bound to influence our children in positive ways.

It's okay to be bored. It's also okay to not be doing anything.
There was a blog post today over on HeyWhipple by Luke Sullivan that claimed good, creative people are NEVER (caps his) bored.
I feel like the piece relies on a few misconceptions about boredom, and fuels a few other misconceptions which can be harmful to the creative process.
Boredom is not the same as having nothing to do
Here's a typical IM conversation for me:
Me: I'm bored
Friend: Go find something to do! Live! Breathe in the world!
Me: I have something to do. I've been working on it for 5 hours. It's boring work.
Me: That's why I'm bored.
In an ideal world, we'd all have super-exciting stuff to do, all the time. In the real world, though, we have to wait in line at the grocery store, fill out tax forms, listen to our friends talk about their newborns, and do all kinds of other boring things.
Even the fun careers have boring bits. We often see only the fun parts because, well, that's what's interesting. Nobody tunes in to see Evil Knievel and his team running tests on handle grips.
If you're sitting around with nothing to do and complaining about having nothing to do, then that's a problem. And yeah, that's probably boring too. But that's not descriptive of all boredom.
Which brings me to my next point…
Doing nothing is just fine.
Relaxation and downtime are essential to the creative process. There's this manic compulsion in society today to be doing something all the time. It was bad before Facebook and other social media, and now it's gotten even worse.
"Sat on a bench and stared at a brick wall" doesn't make for a great status update, but it's a perfectly fine thing to do. So is sitting on the couch and absentmindedly flipping back and forth between Trading Spaces and Mythbusters.
Just don't do it all the time.
Moderation is the key. That applies to the do something compulsion, too.
The real problem with the constant do something compulsion: Burnout. Burnout is the creative's worst enemy.
People who think they can't get burned out haven't pushed themselves hard enough. People who have suffered from it know to constantly walk the thin line between their productive peak and their burnout point.
This social expectation of creative people to do something and do something all the time is a recipe for burnout.
Plenty of young creative people hit their first burnout and just give up. The clash between social expectations and the reality of producing creative work is just too much. That's something we should protect against, because a lot of these young creatives would have produced something truly great on their second, fifth, or twentieth try.
I agree with you. People need to click off. To let their brains drift. To watch mindless television. That is part of the creative process. I do not advocate constant activity, mental or otherwise. My little essay was about those people who get bored, not people who need t click off and veg for a bit. Does that make sense?

Go lets!!
What a marvelous, elegant takedown!! Thank you for your posts, your explications, your ability to describe MMT and its effects, so clearly! I want you to know that your work and energy is helping me to spread the word, to educate my friends and fellow Greens. I also want to give props to selise, whose post at FDL (alongside yours) just validates and strengthens the message you are spreading. What is it about the mandate that the Fed has to " promote full employment" that people do not understand? And if I could ask, humbly, could you please give a short statement as to that mandate and how it should be carried out? And also TY to all who contributed and created the MMT conference, and documented it in its many forms, it was, and remains, a touchstone for a new paradigm.
And as for Paul..Hugh's comment re: Upton Sinclair holds true:
"It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his job depends on not understanding it. "

The new terminal at the rebuilt Mumbai international airport has put it in the category of one of the finest airports in the country. The father-son duo of GVK Group behind Terminal-2 tell The Indian Express Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta, on NDTV 24X7s Walk the Talk, about the problems they faced, and the art that puts their airport apart
With its new terminal, the rebuilt Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in Mumbai has to be one of the finest airports in the world. Mahindra & Mahindra CMD Anand Mahindra said that if theres one terminal where he wants to be stranded, like Tom Hanks in The Terminal, it is this. The men behind the new airport are the father and son duo of G V K Reddy, Chairman of the GVK Group, and Sanjay. Tell us the story of how this became possible.
GVK: One of the impossible things to build an airport here in the city is that we had 2,000 acres of land that the government had given us, (but) out of that 50 per cent was occupied.
By slums?
Partly slums and also government departments, like Air-India, Indian Airlines, police station, so many things. And when they wanted us to build this actually it was impossible they wanted us to expand the existing terminal and also to refurbish and operate the existing terminals. I was talking to Sanjay, this is only for 60 years for us (the lease period), and after 60 years, Im not there, youre not there, at least the airport will be made.
This is your crown jewel now?
GVK: Yes, the crown jewel We started in 2009, within four years, we were able to make it happen. People living in Bombay city, even today, 50 per cent of them are not aware that a new terminal has come up.
It happened as if you had done it under cover.
GVK: Yes, it looks like that. That is something unimaginable.
There must have been many heartbreaks This was supposed to have come up two years earlier. Ill be punished for saying this, even Chhatrapati Shivaji got in the way.
Sanjay: When we came to the Mumbai airport in 2006, May 3 I remember, there was only one person I had along with me, because we didnt know much about airport operations and we didnt have much support. It was a huge challenge for the first few years, especially given that, as my father said, we had only 2,000

Business Law
Ask a Business Lawyer. Get Business Law Questions Answered ASAP.
Hello, I will be assisting you
Thank you.
from the perspective of the farm you were the client who sent in the trucks so they are within their right to withhold the payment pending a reasonably timely resolution of the issue. You would have a claim against the trucking company. If you haven't paid in full you could withhold payment until the matter is resolved
the key is for the farm to investigate this in a timely matter and identify the culprit truck. If I were you I would call them up and ask for a date certain by which they will conclude their inquiry. I would also follow up with an email/letter and also note to them your potential damages as a result of the delay in the release of funds and that "time is of the essence".
Ok thank you. Not what I hoped to hear but good to know. And those other points are well noted. We haven't paid the trucking company yet so I will hold off on that until we find out what the insurance company is going to do.
Keep a close tab on this while the matter is fresh in everyone's minds.
Yes thank you will leave you very good feedback

In Killeen, Texas, where the country's largest Army post drives the local economy, automatic federal budget cuts would furlough about 6,000 of Fort Hood's civil-service workers for one day each week.
Mayor Dan Corbin predicted home sales and construction would grind to a halt; restaurant and shop owners, he said, are "worried sick."
Of those who think the reductions wouldn't have a painful impact, the Republican said: "I don't know what planet these people are living on."
President Obama is painting a dire portrait of across-the-board doom and gloom from the automatic cuts, known as sequestration, set to begin Friday.
- Students seeking sugar daddies for tuition, rent
- Seattle-based seafood company shuts down
- What's the top spelling 'mistake' in Washington state? The answer could make you sick

But the sequester is really like a tornado, scattershot in its course. It would strike some communities and largely bypass others, cutting across class, politics and geography.
Interviews with more than a dozen state and municipal leaders coast to coast show that the sequester would afflict big cities and military communities — because of cuts to social programs and defense — far more than middle-class suburbs or rural areas.
The disparity in some ways mirrors the nation's electoral divide between Democrats and Republicans.
The discrepancies help explain why House Republicans — many of whom represent rural and outer suburban districts — feel little urgency to strike a deal with Obama and avert the sequester.
They also suggest the misery expected Friday would not be universal, meaning public outcry may not be widespread enough to propel Washington toward a quick solution.
"Until the pain gets hard enough, they probably won't do anything," said Steve Bell of the Bipartisan Policy Center.
The sequester is a package of across-the-board, indiscriminate spending cuts that total $85 billion for the current fiscal year and $1.2 trillion over the next decade.
The cuts are split evenly between the defense budget and nondefense discretionary spending, which includes many federal grants to state and local agencies. Mandatory programs, including Social Security and Medicaid, are spared.
Military communities would be hit hard with work stoppages. Pay for border-patrol agents would be cut. Some funding for teachers would get the ax, and reductions are in store for HIV testing, job-search aid and Meals on Wheels for seniors.
And yet the federal government is so sprawling that millions of Americans may never feel any effect from the cuts.
"This is not a situation where on the second of March the lights are going to go off or people are going to be sent home," Bell said. "This is a slow-moving kind of situation which will aggregate itself."
In Los Angeles, the nation's second-largest public-school district would lose $37 million in federal funding. Schools Superintendent John Deasy said that amounts to about $100,000 per school — "easily an employee or employee and a half." The budget cuts would specifically affect programs that help impoverished students, many of whom speak Spanish, prepare for kindergarten and learn to read.
Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak, a Democrat, said the budget cuts would affect the most vulnerable residents of his city. Head Start and employment-training programs would suffer, and some grant money to fight crime in high-impact neighborhoods would disappear.
"Minneapolis is a very successful city on almost every level except we have a very large gap between haves and have-nots, and this will cut exactly those services that help close the gap," he said.
Besides these cuts, Rybak said any other impact from the sequester would be more indirect — such as a corresponding dip in the consumer economy.
He said he worries that Target and Best Buy, which are headquartered in Minneapolis, might have declining sales if customers nationwide spend less amid the uncertainty.
For Hennepin County, which encompasses Minneapolis and many of its suburbs, the impact would be minimal, said Mike Opat, chairman of Hennepin County Board of Commissioners. "If you're not receiving a check or food stamps, you're probably not likely to hear the impact of the sequester immediately."
The same cannot be said for such military communities as Newport News, Va., where Obama visited a nuclear-submarine factory on Tuesday to sound the alarm about deep defense cuts.
In Hinesville, Ga., where Fort Stewart dominates the local economy, Mayor James Thomas Jr. said the sequester would have a $56 million impact, forcing furloughs at the massive Army post. He said it would be the biggest blow to Hinesville's businesses since the Persian Gulf War in 1990, when thousands of U.S. troops deployed to Kuwait.
There are similar worries along Arizona's border with Mexico, where agents with the U.S. Border Patrol are bracing for furloughs.
Art Del Cueto, president of Local 2544, the union that represents more than 3,000 border-patrol agents, said the forced time off would mean pay cuts of up to 40 percent.
"Who in this country can afford a 40 percent pay cut?" Del Cueto said. "If they're saying it's not going to have an impact, that's lying. They need to come down here and walk in the agents' boots."

TALKING NONSENSE ABOUT GOD: C. S. Lewis versus Michel de Montaigne
June 25, 2010 at 8:41 pm 1 comment
20th-century writer C. S. Lewis thought that God ought to be described within the confines of generally accepted logic. Said he,
"His Omnipotence means power to do all that is intrinsically possible, not to do the intrinsically impossible. You may attribute miracles to Him, but not nonsense. This is no limit to His power. If you choose to say 'God can give a creature free will and at the same time withhold free will from it', you have not succeeded in saying anything about God: meaningless combinations of words do not suddenly acquire meaning simply because we prefix to them the two other words 'God can'. It remains true that all things are possible with God: the intrinsic impossibilities are not things but nonentities. It is no more possible for God than for the weakest of His creatures to carry out both of two mutually exclusive alternatives; not because His power meets an obstacle, but because nonsense remains nonsense even when we talk it about God."
Nonsense remains nonsense even when we talk it about God. That's C. S. Lewis' position.
Michel de Montaigne, whom I'm currently reading and who was a French politician and famous essayist from the 16th century, had another take on this. He thought that talking about what God can or cannot do based on what we perceive to be nonsensical statements about God would mean to confine Him to the imperfections of our language.
"It has always seemed to me," said Montaigne, "that certain expressions are too imprudent and irreverent for a Christian: 'God cannot die'; 'God cannot change his mind'; 'God cannot do this or cannot do that'. I find it unacceptable that the power of God should be limited in this way by the rules of human language; these propositions offer an appearance of truth, but it ought to be expressed more reverently and more devoutly. Our speech, like everything else, has its defects and weaknesses. Most of the world's squabbles are occasioned by grammar!"

Great comment by Montaigne. I have come to see that scripture does not actually say that 'God cannot die'. Scripture says that God is 'eternal' and 'immortal' (and is even referring to Christ when saying this about God). Immortality means more that 'death', it actually means 'corruption/decay'. God/Jesus did die but did not see corruption/decay…in other words, 'the grave could not hold Him'. Jesus died, but did not corrupt or decay, He is immortal and lives forever. He was dead but now is alive forevermore. The term, "God cannot die", is not found in scripture. We simply believe it because we have heard it and because we are often limited by our language. The word 'mortal/immortality' is a plausible example of this thought by Montaigne.

Kinsler makes costly error in Rangers' 4-2 loss
ANAHEIM, Calif. When the Los Angeles Angels had two on and two outs in a tie game, Texas manager Ron Washington summoned Alexi Ogando. It seemed like a good decision, because the right-hander retired his first batter in 21 of his previous 24 appearances this season.
Ogando did his job, getting a ground ball from pinch-hitter Maicer Izturis. But second baseman Ian Kinsler booted it, and Mike Trout followed with a bases-loaded two-run single in the seventh inning to help the Angels pin a 4-2 loss on Colby Lewis and the Rangers in the opener of a 10-game California trip.
Lewis (4-4) held the Angels to one hit over the first five innings before giving up two runs in the sixth on an RBI triple by Trout and a sacrifice fly from Albert Pujols. The right-hander retired his first two batters in the seventh before giving up a single to Howie Kendrick and hitting Erick Aybar with an 0-2 pitch.
"Colby was just trying to get inside on Aybar to set up the next pitch, but he just went too far," Washington said. "Ogando comes in and does his job. He got the ground ball. We just didn't pick it up. Kinsler's got the surest hands at second base in the game. When the ball was hit to him, I thought it was an out. That brought another guy up to the plate, and he delivered the base hit. There's the game."
The Rangers threatened to regain the lead in the top of the seventh after third baseman Alberto Callaspo misplayed Nelson Cruz's leadoff grounder for his second error of the season and Kinsler hit a ground-rule double with two out. But Jerome (6-2) Williams escaped the jam with the help of Trout, who raced toward the warning track in center field and reached over his head to grab Elvis Andrus' bid for extra bases.
"He's a good player - a real good player," Washington said. "He's got speed, a little pop in that bat, and he makes contact. He's an exciting-looking little player."
Williams allowed two runs and seven hits over seven innings and struck out four. The Angels' ninth victory in 11 games reduced the Rangers' lead over them in the AL West to 4 1-2 games. The two-time defending AL champions had a nine-game cushion over the Halos on April 30.
"We got off to an awfully good start after I got here. And when you get off to a start like that, the expectations are to play that way year after year," said Rangers CEO and president Nolan Ryan, who joined the team for the first two games of this three-game series. "You have to realize that you're going to have periods where you don't play as well as you do at other times. I think we've just gone through that, and hopefully the month of June will play better than the month of May.
"But I'm very pleased at where we are as a ballclub," Ryan added. "I mean, if you break it down, obviously there are things that you'd want to see better. But as a whole, I think we're doing well. I don't know if your club is ever where you want it to be, because you're always trying to improve your ballclub. But I think this is the best-balanced ballclub we've had since I've been here, and I'm very proud of that."
The Rangers scored their runs on RBI singles by Adrian Beltre and former Angel Mike Napoli in the first and fourth innings. Williams retired 10 of his first 18 batters, getting No.9 hitter Mike Moreland on inning-ending double-play grounders in the second and fourth, after Cruz and David Murphy got themselves into scoring position with stolen bases.

How to Talk to Your Kids About Homosexuality
This article is about defining what is and isn't homosexuality to children. Many kids are getting incorrect ideas about what it is from the streets and TV and are developing unhealthy attitudes about normal things. This article is about explaining what it is, not moral or tolerance issues as many have already dealt with those.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results.

1Explain you can't tell for sure if someone is gay by how they act or look and that a person's masculinity or femininity doesn't relate to their sexual orientation. Some males are "effeminate" and some females are "masculine" but are not gay. Some males are "masculine" and some females are "effeminate" but are gay. Every person is different and orientation won't define anything other than the person's attraction.
2Explain how some people refer to the term. Your children need to understand other kids may tell them that certain things are signs of homosexuality but they are wrong. For example wearing speedos or brief underwear doesn't make you gay neither does having a lisp, males having a high voice, females having a low voice,hugging someone of the same gender,seeing someone of the same gender naked,taking a nude shower in a locker room, listening to show tunes etc. This list could go forever.
3They should know that is normal for kids to be curious about the bodies of others of the same gender: This does not make anyone a homosexual.
4Kids should know it's common to have sexual experiences with friends of the same gender in adolescence, it does not mean they will be gay in adulthood.
5Not showing interest in the opposite sex doesn't mean anyone's gay. Some people just don't have or show interest.
6You should never lose your virginity to prove to yourself or others that you're not gay. Some kids really have done this.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Be supportive no matter what and help them understand that they should never use any derogatory names they might have heard.
- Tell your child if someone denies being homosexual they should be believed.
- It's Important to go over the steps above,if your child exhibits the behavior above he or she could have a sexual identity crisis later.
- Remember to explain that locker room nudity has nothing to do with homosexuality. This way your child will not feel uncomfortable in locker rooms as a teen or adult.
- Tell your children they should never jump to the conclusions about someones sexuality. This can really hurt someone.
- Teach your kids the difference between an intimate friendship and a romance. Two friends can love each other without being gay.

Dec. 18, 1999
STANFORD, Calif. (AP) - Stanford's players polished off yet another overmatched opponent, then sat in their locker room watching a game across the country. They got the result they wanted.
Jason Collins had 14 points and 13 rebounds and No. 2 Stanford (8-0) hit eight 3-pointers in a 78-56 win over Sacramento State on Saturday night that likely will move the Cardinal up to No. 1 next week.
With top-ranked Cincinnati's 66-64 loss to Xavier, Stanford is expected to make its first appearance at No. 1.
"We were watching the game like fans. When Xavier won, we all looked at each other and said, `Do we want to be No. 1? Can we handle it?' And then we said, `Yeah, we can handle it," Stanford's David Moseley said.
The Cardinal watched the final minutes of the Cincinnati-Xavier game on a big-screen TV in their locker room.
"This is all really cool," Moseley said. "This is every guys' dream, to play on the No. 1 team in the country. We also know that we're going to have a big red target with a circle around it on us. We are still going to have to be the attackers, because we're going to be attacked."
Jason's twin brother, Jarron Collins, added 11 points and Ryan Mendez also had 11 for the Cardinal, who held the Hornets to 31 percent shooting - the sixth time Stanford has kept an opponent from making a third of its shots this season.
"It's way premature for us to get too excited," Jarron Collins said. "But this shows that we have respect all over the country, and that is something that we're seeking all the time."
Sacramento State coach Tom Abatemarco said Stanford will be even better when it gets back power forward Mark Madsen, who has missed seven games with a strained right hamstring. Madsen could return next week.
"This is definitely a Final Four team. I know what I'm talking about," said Abatemarco, an assistant on the North Carolina State team that won the 1983 NCAA title. "You throw the big guy (Madsen) in there and they're unstoppable. Right now they're already outstanding."
Anthony Flood had 22 points before fouling out with three minutes left for Sacramento State (5-3), which had no player taller than 6-foot-7 in its starting lineup while Stanford had three starters at least that tall.
Flood scored 14 of his points in the second half, including a spurt in which he hit 3-pointers on four consecutive Sacramento State possessions. Pablo Gonzales added 13 points for the Hornets.
Stanford used a 22-6 run over the closing 12 1/2 minutes of the first half to turn a tie game into a 37-21 halftime lead. Casey Jacobsen, David Moseley and Mike McDonald all had 3-pointers during the run.
"They played us tough inside early and our guys thought they could shoot over the traffic," Stanford coach Mike Montgomery said.
The Cardinal quickly expanded their margin in the second half. The lead grew to 31 points with 10 minutes remaining when Curtis Borchardt's slam made it 60-29.
The Hornets' quick hands and tight defense, including full-court pressure on some possessions, bothered the Cardinal at the start of the game. Stanford was held to just one basket in the opening 4 1/2 minutes.
But the Cardinal then took control of the game from outside. Half of Stanford's 30 shots in the first half came from 3-point range, and 18 of the Cardinal's 37 first-half points were on 3-pointers.

text: Man seeks bail to go on Jeremy Kyle show 21 May 2014 A man accused of shouting sectarian slogans outside Belfast City Hall wants out of prison to take a lie detector test on the Jeremy Kyle Show, the High Court has heard. Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast Frederick Boyd, 22, is desperate to go on the daytime television programme to clear his name over separate allegations for which he was attacked in custody, his lawyer said.A judge agreed to grant bail after the defendant's grandmother pledged to move in with him.Boyd, with a former address at Mark Street in Newtownards, Co Down, currently facing charges of disorderly behaviour and doing a provocative act.He is alleged to have scaled a pillar at the front of City Hall on 23 January while draped in Union flags and shouted obscenities at passers-by.A crowd of up to 60 people heard him shout 'No Surrender', 'F*** the Pope' and 'Up the Shankill', the court heard.Following his arrest, Boyd claimed loyalist paramilitaries had put a gun to his head and told him to do it.He was charged and released on police bail, only to be detained again after a further incident on 15 May in Larne, Co Antrim where he now lives.Prosecutor Conor Gillespie claimed Boyd approached a shop owner in the town, called him a 'PSNI tout' and then lunged at him with a screwdriver.A brief struggle broke out before the accused ran away, it was alleged.No screwdriver was recovered when he was arrested, but police did seize a tube suspected of being used for smoking cannabis.Boyd, who claimed instead that the shop owner grabbed him, faces charges of assault and possession of an offensive weapon with intent over that incident.As he sought bail on Wednesday, defence barrister Michael Boyd claimed his client suffered repeated beatings at the hands of paramilitaries in Newtownards.His grandmother, who helped raise him, was herself subjected to a severe assault too, the court heard.Mr Boyd also submitted that the accused has been targeted and injured since being brought into custody.Those alleged attacks were in connection with a separate incident not before the court.But Boyd now believes an appearance on the tabloid-style chat show will bring them to an end. The barrister disclosed: "He tells me one of the reasons he's desperate to be released on bail is that he's determined to try and take a lie detector test."He thinks the best way to do that is on the Jeremy Kyle TV show."Asked by Mr Justice Weir if that was anything like the Stephen Nolan Show, Mr Boyd described it as "more extreme".The judge responded: "I can't for a minute imagine that."Bail was granted after the accused's grandmother went into the witness box to give an emotional address.Kathleen Boyd told the court his anger stems from what loyalists have done to both of them."On Remembrance Sunday a group of paramilitaries beat me and my grandson had to watch that, and they wrecked my kitchen," she said."This is why he feels so bitter about things."She confirmed to Mr Justice Weir that she was prepared to move to Larne to live with her grandson.Granting bail on that basis, the judge imposed a curfew, alcohol ban and prohibition on entering parts of the town.He also ordered electronic tagging after Boyd exhorted him to include the condition to ensure police cannot accuse him of any breach. Directing the accused to seek medical help within three days, Mr Justice Weir told him: "You're only 22 years of age and you look about 45."You can't go on like this. You have to get your life sorted out." © UTV Share Share Share

Undertake The Hawakati with no bookmark, or with many. Local artist Rabih Alameddine has given us a book that deploys a deep and rarified appreciation of the storyteller's art to create the illusion of containing the entire world. His gateway is the eponymous hakawati, grandfather of the narrator, a bard who travels from Urfa to Lebanon learning all the stories while creating his own. These stories scatter and swarm forth, tolerating no resistance, whenever the covers of this book are opened. Best not to read it; instead, listen. --Recommended by Matthew, City Lights Books
In 2003, Osama al-Kharrat returns to Beirut after many years in America to stand vigil at his father's deathbed. As the family gathers, stories begin to unfold: Osama's grandfather was a hakawati, or storyteller, and his bewitching tales are interwoven with classic stories of the Middle East. Here are Abraham and Isaac; Ishmael, father of the Arab tribes; the beautiful Fatima; Baybars, the slave prince who vanquished the Crusaders; and a host of mischievous imps. Through Osama, we also enter the world of the contemporary Lebanese men and women whose stories tell a larger, heartbreaking tale of seemingly endless war, conflicted identity, and survival. With The Hakawati, Rabih Alameddine has given us an Arabian Nights for this century.

Bought this for my son's girlfriend for Christmas who is 16 and loves Hello Kity. Looks even prettier in person.
Have to find a shorter chain but I like it.
This was the best! Get compliments daily
Wear everyday - Love hello kitty and can dress up or down according to what I wear. Catches the eye of everyone and I just love it.
Love It!
I really love this. I got it a few years ago at the Sanrio Store. I got so many compliments wearing this out. I'm not big on jewlery, but I make an exception for this Hello Kitty locket. I can't decide what picture to put inside, but it doesn't matter, I'll probably never open it. The hinge seems a little weak, so I'd prefer not to use it.

Men's Project
The Men's Project is a leadership initiative aiming to redefine masculinity and what it means to be a man in an effort to confront structures of power and privilege. Throughout a 10-week curriculum, the cohort of men will address masculinity on a personal level, learn necessary skills to dismantle systemic structures of gender-based violence, and join a network of alumni committed to offering support in engaging the global community.
This is a 3hr/wk commitment for 12 consecutive weeks.
Two Pillars
Enlightenment: Once a week the men will meet to share, reflect, and discuss the "male experience." This creates a safe space for men to share personal testimonies as well as explore the intersectionality of identities at Loyola and in his community.
Enrichment: The men will gain a holistic perspective of masculinity and how it relates to various social issues within society. Given this, the men will develop bystander intervention skills and contribute to service initiatives aimed at promoting non-violence on all levels.
Create positive and sustainable change at Loyola and the greater community by empowering men to understand male privilege, redefine masculinity, and advocate against gender-based violence.
Empower men to be active agents of change striving to understand their privilege and dismantle systemic structures of gender-based violence and all forms of oppression through collaborative understanding and action.

Images can make your blog look more interesting. I don't have enough statistical data to prove this, but from my experience books (for example) without images are heavier to read than books with images. Articles with images are lighter than articles without images. I presume a blog without images is duller than a blog with images.
I don't spreading images much all over your blog, but use them sometimes. Content of the blog is the number one issue that matters – of course – but interesting content with interesting images is better than interesting content only, right?
