If you're part of the 9 to 5 grind, you've probably heard the slew of health hazards that come with the job: Sitting, stressing, and ransacking the office vending machine can do everything from decrease productivity to take years off your life.
The good news: You don't have to quit your day job in order to save your health, according to a bunch of new studies. Here, six ways to have your happiest, healthiest workday ever. (Your coworkers—and the proverbial dog you go home and kick—will thank you.)
You may unsubscribe at any time.
1. Slip in a little yoga. You don't even have to get up for this: 15 minutes of chair-based yoga can calm you down and help you feel better, finds a new study in the journal Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Study participants did several yoga poses—side bend, forward bend, and back bend—holding each one six full breaths. The results? Significantly reduced stress and lower blood pressure. (Wondering what else yoga can fix? See 10 Yoga Poses For Health Problems.)
2. Pack healthier snacks. Ignoring the siren song of your office's snack machine can be difficult, but here's something to consider the next time you hear it calling: A new study in the journal Population Health Management shows that unhealthy eats can up the chances you'll be less productive by 66%. To the rescue: Our 22 delicious low-calorie snack ideas that'll rev your metabolism, while keeping you full.
3. Go green. Staving off an afternoon slump can be as easy as flexing your green thumb. Texas A&M researchers found that people who kept a vase of vibrant flowers on their desks, along with green plants elsewhere in their office, generated more creative ideas than those in a vegetation-free setting. (For even more tips on how to energize your office, see 5 Ways To Feng Shui Your Life.)
4. Take a nap. George Costanza was onto something when he built a bed into his desk on that famous Seinfeld episode. Northwestern University researchers found that taking a short nap after learning something new can help you absorb and retain that information. Plus, experts at Johns Hopkins Hospital Sleep Disorders Center say a brief nap can provide greater alertness for several hours, and can also improve concentration, accuracy, and productivity. (For tips on how to sneak a snooze at work, see How to Nap At Work.)
5. Swap your lampshade. While compact-fluorescent (CFL) blubs are clearly better for the environment, new research suggests the bulbs could up your chances for skin cancer. State University of New York, Stony Brook researchers found that CFLs emit significant levels of UVC and UVA rays, and that skin can react to them the same way it does when standing in direct sunlight. The fix: Trade your cloth lampshade for a glass one to keep UV rays from getting through. Also make sure to keep your desk lamp an arm length away, as the rays don't extend much further than that.
6. Limit chair time. Sitting all day can take years off your life by upping your risk for a slew of diseases, such as cancer and type-2 diabetes. The best solution for desk jockeys? A standing desk. If it's a little too pricey for you, check out our easy instructions on how to make your own standing desk.

The Tories want war. Tell them: Don't bomb Syria.
Tell your MP to stand against military escalation in Syria.
The Tory government is desperate to escalate its intervention in the Middle East once again. Despite being defeated on the issue in parliament in 2013 they are pushing for another vote on military escalation.
Stepping up intervention in Syria will only increase the violence, chaos and suffering there. It will also lead to an increase in the number of people fleeing the already war-torn country.
The idea that so called safe havens or no-fly zones are a solution is a myth. Attempting to create either would involve military confrontation with Assad's military and possibly Russian forces too. This would involve intense fighting. The call for no-fly zones was the prelude to the Western intervention in Libya which left tens of thousands dead and the country in ruins.
Britain has been the most aggressive country in Europe over the last fifteen years, leading military interventions in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. Yet it has done little to help the victims of the wars it so enthusiastically pursues and it has been at the forefront of opposing a humane policy towards refugees.
Another destructive bombing campaign is no solution whatsoever. It will make moves toward a political solution harder. It risks intensifying and widening what is already a catastophic war.Tell your MP to stand against further military escalation in Syria and prevent another disastrous intervention.

They say time flies when you're having fun—and Hublot can attest to that. After driving an electric Tesla through the winding roads of Switzerland's Montreux Grand Prix (sponsored by Hublot), and then being chauffeured to the watch makers 60,000 square foot world headquarters, the above adage never rang more true.
At 32 years old, most high-end brands are just getting their feet wet, and discovering what works. But Hublot known for its porthole-inspired designs remains above water, playing in the same league as its century-old competitors.
Handcrafted to perfection isn't a cliché here. Each watch body requires a minimum of 160 manual operations. Most of its timepieces have at least 500 components, which must pass a series of painstaking inspections—and reinspections.
The distinctive "H"—two parallel stems connected by a wavy bar—has become a universal symbol of the one-percent. You've surely heard Hublot name-checked in summer anthems by Jay-Z and 50 Cent. And it's impossible to miss the wrist candy flaunted by brand ambassadors Dwyane Wade, Usain Bolt, and Jet Li—all of whom were Hublot owners well before their appointments. Hublot is also the official timekeeper of the FIFA World Cup and the Ferrari Challenge.
This past October, Hublot opened its newest boutique—number 54—in Atlanta, adding to a worldwide roster that includes Paris, Cairo, Shanghai, New York, Beverly Hills, and St. Thomas. The future of the brand is on display at Hublot in Nyon, Switzerland. There, you'll find platinum, gold, and steel works of art. But its most prized innovation is Magic Gold: the patented 18-karat, scratch-resistant mix of pure gold and ceramic used in Big Bang, an award-winning chronograph developed in 2004.
"Without innovation, there's no future," says Chairman Jean-Claude Biver. "And without tradition, there's no future. You need both to have a great future."

Revisions to this policy were approved at the April 25, 2017 Senate meeting. To view revisions, see the legislative report.
Articulation agreements may be created between one or more academic units of Penn State (program, department, college) and one or more units of at least one other regionally accredited institution or officially recognized degree-granting institution in the country in which it operates.
All articulation agreements must adhere to the following provisions.
- The Executive Vice President and Provost is the University officer responsible for administratively authorizing, extending, or terminating articulation agreements with other academic institutions relating to the admission, curricular offerings, enrollments, or awarding of degrees for academic programs and students at all college and campus locations.
- Academic deans or campus chancellors may propose to enter into, extend, or terminate articulation agreements with external institutions and agencies or with graduate and professional units within the University. Articulation agreement proposals are to be developed after consultation with appropriate academic and administrative officers within the University, including other deans or campus chancellors. Whenever appropriate, articulation agreements shall include the provision for multiple campuses and colleges of the University to participate in the agreement. An articulation agreement should not have a negative impact on any Penn State program or campus in terms of academic quality.
- An articulation agreement should not have a negative impact on any Penn State program or campus in terms of enrollment. When an agreement is proposed with an institution that is located within the geographic service area of a Penn State campus, the dean/chancellor of that campus must be consulted before an agreement is finalized.
- All academic and administrative policies of the University will be honored in the proposed articulation agreement. Exceptions to any University academic or administrative policy must be addressed in the agreement and include appropriate consultation.
- When a student is admitted to the University through an articulation agreement, admission requirements for enrollment in a college and entrance to a major will be no less than those in effect at the time for Penn State matriculated students. The Undergraduate Admissions Office will evaluate the application and scholastic credentials for undergraduate students seeking entry to the University through an articulation agreement. For articulation agreements involving graduate programs, the admission evaluation will be done by Graduate Enrollment Services and the graduate program involved in the articulation agreement.
- Articulation agreements involving undergraduate programs will be reviewed by the Senate Committee on Admissions, Records, Scheduling, and Student Aid (ARSSA) before being authorized by the provost. Articulation agreements involving graduate programs will be reviewed by the Graduate Council before being authorized by the provost. Evidence of consultation with affected academic units must be included as supporting documentation.
- The review process for agreements with agencies or institutions outside the United States must ensure that appropriate legal, language proficiency, and safety factors are addressed. At the very least, this process requires written consultation with the Office of Global Programs and a review by the Senate Committee on Global Programs.
- Whenever possible, units are encouraged to create templates for articulation agreements that have been reviewed by the Office of Risk Management and the Office of General Counsel.
- All articulation agreements must have a renewal date (no later than five years beyond the initial date of the agreement) at which time the agreement is to be reviewed and either continued or terminated. If it is to be continued, a new renewal date should be established at that time. This five-year review is to be done internally by the sponsoring academic unit and reported to the Senate Committee on Admissions, Records, Scheduling, and Student Aid (ARSSA) or the Graduate Council, as appropriate.
- All articulation agreements must contain a process by which the agreement may be terminated at the request of either institution.
- A record of authorized undergraduate articulation agreements will be maintained by the Vice President and Dean for Undergraduate Education. A record of authorized graduate articulation agreements will be maintained by The Graduate School.

|Reviews for The Meiji Teachings: Evil In Question
| Warg chapter 1 . 8/7/2006
Character sketches at its best..
This was amazing work..
Lovely use of repetitions, of character strength and the inborn(i mean the Sano's) stubborness to drive through the crucial points..
The tone of the fic was natural and driven.. playing of Sano's anger and his fears.. ten years one goal.. and the one who makes him look back, to reflect, is the very image of his enemy.. except in him Sano sees someone entirely different..
Thanks for the great read.
| TanukiGirl22 chapter 1 . 6/17/2004
lookes like i missed a sketch, it's great and stayed true to character. it protrayed sanosuke's deeper self perfectly, and that's whawt i love about it. i hope to read more, and i hope you could give me some advice on my fics, esp. The True Emperor
| Saucie chapter 1 . 2/18/2004
This is a scene that has always interested me - Sanosuke's first meeting with Kenshin, and their first fight. Sanosuke is explained there, but ... not quite. And this is it. The 'quite'.
It sums up his hate - because all that hate and anger is so much a part of who he is - and his doubts - "There are always questions." - and why he actually listened to Kenshin, after - and during - that fight. And Sanosuke's fears are brilliantly portrayed ... his fear of disappointment, of actually facing himself in all those ten years, and - almost - his fear of actually being ashamed of who he was. Which is why he wears the Sekihoutai bandana, to combat that fear.
No words wasted, and great job!
| Cassidy J chapter 1 . 2/3/2004
I love the last line most.
Really, it sums up everything about how he feels in regards to Kenshin. :)
Beautifully done! -bounces- :)
| Night-Mare-Chan chapter 1 . 6/26/2003
Cool. You captured his voice really well. _ You're really talented. Of course I all ready knew that. ~_
| BrorJace chapter 1 . 6/2/2003
Very touching story, I think that even though it was short, it was to the point and was able to capture what Sano's character is really feeling about the Meiji Era, so I liked this fic, mainly because I think it would be difficult to write for a man who seems more shadowy (if that's even a word :P) then Kenshin himself.
On another note, since it was short, and to the point, Akai didn't go rambling on like some writters do just to make it seem like they have more to say then is necessary.
Overall I give it a thumbs up _
| Bard chapter 1 . 5/23/2003
WOW! O.O That was extremely powerful. PLease write some more like this. I really hope that you do write more. PLease do.
Hn. Ja ne.
| Bloody Angel X chapter 1 . 5/22/2003
This was really good. I think it catches the spirit of Sano's weird trains of thought, and was really pretty deep.

Spend J-Term in Georgia!
Want to see the spectacular Caucasus mountains?
Go to the Republic of Georgia on a faculty-led trip. Two week internship, 2 academic credits, excursions, home stays and a visit to a fascinating country! Opportunities to take classes in either Russian or Georgian.
For further information contact Professor Stephen Jones, Skinner 104. Telephone: x2428.
About the Program
A study abroad program with an internship in the newly independent state of Georgia
Georgia is an ancient country that sits at the traditional crossroads between Europe and Asia. Its northern border is formed by the Caucasus mountains which stretch from the Black to Caspian seas. To Georgia's south are Armenia and Turkey, to the East, Azerbaijan, and to the north, Russia. Georgia's geographical position makes it a strategically contested territory and empires - from the Roman and Byzantine to the Ottoman and Russian - have occupied Georgian lands over the centuries. As a result, Georgia is a multinational country made up of a myriad of cultural symbols and influences. Georgia's recorded history goes back to the fifth century A.D. The Georgian language belongs to a distinctive Caucasian family of languages and has its own alphabet. Georgian traditions of poetry, dance and hospitality have always attracted European poets and writers. Tolstoy, Lermontov, Pushkin, Alexander Dumas, and Knut Hamsun have all written about their adventures in Georgia.
After over a hundred years in the Russian Empire and another seventy in the USSR, Georgia regained its independence in 1991. It is now a member of the United Nations, the WTO and the Council of Europe. Since 1991, Georgia has been struggling to build a new society, democratic governance and a market economy. It is a Presidential system. The current President - Misha Saakashvili - is a 36 year old US trained lawyer elected in January 2004 for a five-year term.
The Program
The January Term program was launched in 1996. Along with our US partners, Williams College and Wellesley College, we set up a student exchange with Tbilisi State University, the premier higher educational institution in Georgia. The program is designed for students of all backgrounds and disciplines. There is no language requirement.
The program consists of a three week trip to Georgia. Students stay with Georgian families in the capital of Tbilisi, a modern city of approximately one and half million people. Students spend two weeks in an internship of their choosing. The internship will be shaped to the student's interests. We have had students work in the Georgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in hospitals, in art museums, and with NGOs working with refugees or training unemployed women to begin a business. In addition to the internship, students will attend three lectures on aspects of Georgian history and culture by local professors. There will be visits to the Georgian parliament to meet with MPs, and excursions outside the capital to historical and archeological sites. In the past, many of our students have enjoyed some spectacular skiing in the Caucasus mountains. The students will be accompanied to Georgia by a professor from one of the three US partner colleges and will be hosted in Tbilisi by our local representative, Zaal Kikodze, an archeologist and mountaineer. The January Term is a 2-credit course and students will be expected to write a report on their internship experience when they return to Mount Holyoke College.
The host city of Tbilisi was established over 1500 years ago and is one of the great architectural treasures of the Caucasus region. It sits along the river Mtkvari between spectacular mountain ranges. The city has all modern conveniences from ATMs and restaurants to jazz clubs and concert halls. Georgian food is a particular delight with multiple influences from the Middle East and Europe. Tbilisi is a safe city and transport is easy by subway and bus. There will nevertheless be proper security briefings for students.
Health services are not as reliable as in the USA and all students will be insured by MEDEX which in medical emergencies will evacuate students to good hospital facilities.
Travel Dates and Application
We will depart at the beginning of January and return during the third week of January (the exact dates are dependent on flights). We leave from Boston and fly through Vienna or Istanbul. The latter gives students an opportunity to explore Istanbul for the day. Up-to-date passports are the students responsibility. Visas from the Georgian Embassy in Washington D.C. will be required. To apply, students should obtain the Universal Application Form (UAF) from Career Development Center; also see more details on the McCulloch Center for Global Initiatives Web site. You can receive detailed information about the program from Professor Stephen Jones; his extension is 2428. There will be two orientation meetings (times to be announced) for the program and you will be expected to make a commitment by November 1st.
In Georgia, the main language is Georgian, a difficult language with its own alphabet. Russian is also spoken by the older generation. However, many young people in Georgia understand and speak English and your families and internships will be chosen to ensure that you have someone with whom you can communicate in English. However, if you are game, there will be opportunities to take classes in Georgian or Russian, a beginning that you might want to pursue when you return to the US.

Talks between President Obama and congressional Republicans over the so-called "fiscal cliff" are seemingly stalled, but former President Bill Clinton on Tuesday didn't seem too concerned.
"It's just a Kabuki dance," Clinton said at an event in Sacramento, Calif., the Sacramento Bee reports. "They're sort of like two dogs that meet each other over a piece of meat. They're sniffing each other out. They are moving toward a deal. That's what's going on."
The "fiscal cliff" refers to a series of tax hikes and spending increases set to go into effect next year. The "cliff" would significantly shrink the deficit, but economists project it could send the economy back into a recession. While both Democrats and Republicans say they want to avert the "cliff" they disagree over the approach. Mr. Obama insists that Congress should let the Bush-era tax cuts expire for the wealthiest Americans. Republicans, meanwhile, object to any tax increases and are calling for changes to programs like Medicare.
Mr. Obama on Wednesday appealed to a group of powerful business leaders to support his agenda.
As the negotiations drag out, Mr. Clinton predicted the public will grow even more cynical of Washington. "The American people are going to be sick when they watch this," he said.
If Washington fails to reach a deal to avert the "cliff," a recent poll showed, most Americans would blame Republicans.

Kaspersky Adds Firewall, Anti-Spam Features
On Monday, Kaspersky Lab unveiled the latest versions of its anti-virus and Internet security products aimed for the consumer and small business markets.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 retails for $59.95 and Internet Security 6.0 retails for $79.95. Both products are immediately available for download and will also ship to retail shelves at Comp USA, Office Depot, Fry's and J&R Electronics, the company said.
Read more here about how Kaspersky's Anti-Virus 6.0 fared in PC Magazine's review.
Internet Security 6.0 incorporates two new features: a personal firewall controls data that is sent from the users PC to any other network including Internet, intranet and trusted networks, and an anti-spam feature which integrates an intuitive Bayes algorithm that analyzes e-mails based on user-specific patters of e-mail traffic. The anti-spam function operates via the Kaspersky Lab database, which automatically updates every twenty minutes.
"The rapid evolution of Internet crime requires a new class of solutions that can effectively detect and quickly respond to these new, sophisticated threats," said Steve Orenberg, president of Kaspersky Lab, in a prepared statement.
Kaspersky's next-gen "proactive" products utilize algorithms to analyze common Internet threats in a bid to offer increased protection in real-time, the company said. The Anti-Virus 6.0 software protects PCs from viruses, Trojans, worms, spyware, rootkits and phishing. Internet Security 6.0 ups the ante by also protecting against spam, hackers, fraud and network intrusion."Proactive protection is for the detection of new threats, threats that we don't have signatures for but [threats that] we can detect different through behavioral analyses that happen within the computer itself," said Charles Waelde, Senior Sales Engineer for Kaspersky Lab. "We look at each computer and compare trusted processes to un-trusted processes; if it's not a trusted process or common behavior on that computer we'll alert on it." An example of a trusted behavior is a traditional computer application like Microsoft Word. An example of an un-trusted process is something that a Trojan might run, like writing hidden registry keys.
Both products scan for malicious programs all data going into or out of the PC, including e-mails and Internet files. When detected, the user can opt to undo any changes made to the file system and registry. The software also deletes all references to the files in question from the entire operating system.
The software also intelligently looks for spam and attempts to identify it.
"Bayes is a trainable algorithm that looks at spam, potential spam and good e-mails and automatically trains itself to know the difference between good and bad mail," Waelde said. "It learns from both the e-mail you send as well as e-mail coming in."Editor's Note: This story was updated at 12:56 PM EDT on May 15 with comments from Kaspersky's Waelde.

Government raises its summer gas price estimate, now at $2.88 a gallon.
WASHINGTON -- The federal Energy Information Administration (EIA) yesterday raised its estimate for the average price American drivers will pay for gasoline this summer to $2.88 a gallon, reflecting higher oil costs. That's 12 cents more than the $2.76 per gallon the EIA had previously forecast, and 51 cents higher than last summer's pump price.
The Energy Department's analytical arm released its latest motor fuel price estimate in its latest monthly energy forecast. According to the EIA, the average price U.S. consumers paid for gasoline jumped 3.9 cents over the past week to $2.97 a gallon, the second highest level ever, Reuters reported.
The national pump price for regular unleaded gasoline is up 65 cents from a year ago and not far from the record $3.07 reached last September after Hurricane Katrina disrupted petroleum supplies, according to the EIA's weekly survey of 800 service stations, the Reuters report stated.
Furthermore, the much larger Lundberg survey of 7,000 stations showed gasoline increased about 11 cents over the last two weeks to $3 a gallon, when rounded to the nearest penny. This rise at the pump reflects an increase in U.S. crude oil prices, which accounts for about half the cost of making gasoline, said Reuters.
The price for U.S. oil for delivery in August hit a record $75.78 a barrel last week at the New York Mercantile Exchange, and the pump price had a long way to fall before meeting the EIA's initial forecast that gasoline will average $2.76 a gallon this summer.
The latest pump price came on the same day a U.S. senator released a congressional report he said showed that a group of major oil companies, which included Exxon Mobil have enjoyed higher rates of return than the industry has implied, according to Reuters.
Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, a critic of Big Oil who requested the report from the Congressional Research Service, said select major oil companies earned 7.1 cents on every dollar in sales last year and almost 6.5 cents in 2004. He said this was much more than the average 5.9 cents on the dollar that the American Petroleum Institute trade group has advertised the entire U.S. oil and gas industry earned over the last five years.
In the EIA's new weekly survey, the West Coast had the most expensive gasoline by region, with the price up 2.7 cents to $3.14 a gallon. Additionally, Los Angeles had the highest pump price among the cities surveyed at $3.28 a gallon, up 6.6 cents, the report stated.
On the other hand, the Gulf Coast states had the cheapest gasoline at $2.85 a gallon, up 2.5 cents. Among major cities, Houston had the best pump price at $2.90, up 2.4 cents.
The EIA also reported that prices were up 4.6 cents in San Francisco at $3.21, up 7.4 cents in Chicago at $3.20, up 4.1 cents in New York City at $3.12, up 2.8 cents in Seattle at $3.03, up 5.3 cents in Boston at $3.01, up 2.7 cents in Miami at $2.97 and up 3 cents in Denver at $2.91, said Reuters.

Farmers & Merchants Bank 'interested' in Freeport
Plans are in the works for Freeport to get a bank again.
The borough has been without a bank since PNC Bank moved out on Feb. 22, but that is likely to change.
According to Richard Krauland, the president and CEO of Farmers and Merchants Bank of Western Pa., his company is in the early stages of acquiring the former PNC building, on the corner of Fifth and High streets, in order to open their own branch there.
"We haven't purchased anything yet," Krauland said. "But we're interested in it."
Amy Vargo, a spokeswoman for PNC, said the bank wouldn't confirm the possible sale of its old branch.
"It sounds like rumor and speculation at this point, and we're not going to comment," Vargo said.
Farmers and Merchants' Krauland said he couldn't discuss many details, but it appears that the deal may be close.
Farmers and Merchants placed a legal ad in the Wednesday edition of the Valley News Dispatch notifying the public that the corporation has filed an application with the Comptroller of Currency asking for permission to open a bank in Freeport. Any new bank must file for permission to open.
Farmers and Merchants, based in Kittanning, has eight locations throughout Armstrong County.
Council President Don Rehner says the bank will likely open in mid-May, once the ink dries on the sale.
"I'm thrilled that they appear to be coming to town," Rehner said. "They've been a pleasure to deal with. I'm hoping all borough residents patronize the new bank."
Rehner said PNC has been cooperative in the borough's search for a bank.
"We started reaching out to Farmers and Merchants about two weeks after PNC announced they were leaving," Rehner said. "I do think PNC was helpful."
Rehner said he and Freeport Renaissance Association President Mary Bowlin knew Farmers and Merchants has a history of being a small-town-friendly bank.
"We heard from other small communities about how well Farmers and Merchants works with them," Bowlin said. "They'll be a great fit for Freeport. They're community-minded."
Both Rehner and Bowlin spoke of how vital it is for Freeport to have a bank, especially for businesses and the elderly.
"To me it's extremely important; it maintains your small-town identity," Rehner said. "It's there for the residents that can't travel."
Bowlin said she couldn't be any happier now that it looks like the return of a bank is imminent.
"If it were warmer out, we'd be dancing in the streets," she said.

In 1957, Frank Kameny was dismissed from his position as an astronomer in the U.S. Army's Army Map Service in Washington, D.C. because of his homosexuality, leading him to begin "a Herculean struggle with the American establishment" that would "spearhead a new period of militancy in the homosexual rights movement of the early 1960s".
"Kameny protested his firing by the U.S. Civil Service Commission due to his homosexuality, and argued this case to the United States Supreme Court in 1961. Although the court denied his petition, it is notable as the first civil rights claim based on sexual orientation." (wiki)

On September 8, 1975, Leonard Matlovich appeared on the cover of Time magazine in uniform over the headline I Am a Homosexual; The Gay Drive for Acceptance.
Technical Sergeant Leonard Matlovich (July 7, 1943 June 22, 1988)[1] was a Vietnam War veteran, race relations instructor, and recipient of the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star.
Matlovich's grave at the Congressional Cemetery where other gay vetrans have since chosen to be buried, does not bear his name.
The tombstone reads:
A Gay Vietnam Veteran
When I was in the military, they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one
Matlovich's discharge was in October 1975.
SLDN Executive Director Aubrey Sarvis said,Leonard Matlovichs extraordinary courage in a time when gays and lesbians faced extreme prejudice is an example for us all. He was a brave pioneer and set off a struggle that we can finally envision winning. The debt that gay veteransand the entire gay communityowe to Sergeant Matlovich cannot be overstated.
Angered by the ban, he purposely declared his homosexuality in a 1975 letter to Air Force Secretary John McLucas and fought to remain in the military. Sergeant Matlovichs case won widespread media attention. On September 8, 1975, Matlovich appeared on the cover of Time magazine in uniform over the headline I Am a Homosexual; The Gay Drive for Acceptance.
After losing his bid to remain in the Air Force through their administrative proceedings, a US District Court judge ordered Matlovich reinstated with back pay. After more litigation, Matlovich eventually accepted a financial settlement and an upgrade to honorable discharge. He continued his tireless efforts for gay equality in the civilian sector. Matlovich announced he had AIDS during an interview with Charlie Gibson on Good Morning America in 1987. He died on June 22, 1988, just two weeks before his 45th birthday.(Servicemembers Legal Defense Network)

I still don't think he was wrong. He stopped a hoard of panicking idiots with one stroke of his pen.
Granted, the solution was not what any of us wanted, including him, but we're one helluva lot better off today than we would have been had the panicking idiots whipped up enough momentum to pass a Federal marriage amendment.
And, looking at the 30-some states that passed constitutional amendments against marriage in the next few years, I would say that passing an FMA would have been a breeze for them.
Stopping that momentum might yet prove to be among the best things to happened for us.

I tend to take Clinton at face value. Signorile's comments don't count too much for me - he is a like a mad dog ho wants to bite everything. As e-John posted, Clinton was trying to head off rightist extremists with both DOMA and DADT though he was a bit misguided.
I do not believe Hilary will run in 2016 and if she does, I have a feeling she won't make it through the primaries.
As for vote-gathering ability, I believe a Hispanic candidate could do more than a white female in that area.

While I have to agree about DOMA, I think DADT wasn't necessary, and was a mistake. Of course we'll never really know what would have happened if he had just eliminated the gay ban with an executive order right away, but I doubt they could have had enough votes to override a veto of a ban had they tried to pass one. Public opinion was in support of lifting the ban.
At least it is gone now. While DOMA denies equal treatment, which is still harmful, stigmatizing, and dehumanizing, DADT required punishment simply for being gay. It was a terrible law that ruined the careers of 17,000 gay service members as well as telling the world the federal government still required punishment for simply being gay.

Public opinion may have been in favor of lifting the ban on gays in the military, but Congressional opinion definitely wasn't. Even IF the democratic led House & Senate of the 103rd Congress hadn't been able to override a Clinton veto of an outright ban, the Republican 103rd Congress led by Gingrich most certainly would have.
I was on active duty before and during DADT; it was definitely an improvement in many ways. I only wish I had still been on active duty to see the repeal.

#12 Mar 14, 2013
I'm glad to hear your personal experience was better, but discharges actually increased under DADT.
The problem remains, it wrote into the law, a requirement that gay people be punished simply for being gay, telling the world, new recruits, and everyone else, that the official position of the US government was, gay people must be punished simply for being gay.

That was already the law before DADT was implemented; before DADT gays were given a dishonorable discharge.
Since: Jun 11
#14 Mar 14, 2013
Clinton's promise was to do away with that code.
While the punishment was more severe, it was behavior that was punished by the military code, not orientation.
Enforcement was more rare, and dadt was the unofficial practice, not the law. It was also a military code, not a federal law. I understand it was potentially worse for service members. But as a code, it was symbolically less significant than being a federal law that not only punished behavior, but said the official position of the US Government is that simply being gay must be punished. The final legal version as well as how it was implemented, was not the transitional policy many had proposed as a compromise.
(And once again, as usual, only the equal rights of gay people were compromised.)

Actually simply stating you were gay was sufficient reason for discharge pre-dadt.
Congress approves the UCMJ, so I really think you're splitting hairs on that.
Trust me, it made no difference to those of us in the service, and I doubt it made much difference to how civilians viewed the policies either.
Since: Jun 11
#16 Mar 14, 2013
The ban and DADT may have felt the same, but I believe the difference between a code and a federal law is significant. But the promise was not about a choice between the two, but removing the ban.
Had Clinton followed through on his promise to remove the ban by executive order, he could have avoided congress. He had the power because it was a military code and he was Commander.
Congress could have tried to override it with a law, but probably wouldn't have gotten a veto proof majority. So they might have left it alone. But once it became federal law, no president could do that.
And had he followed through, we would have had all those years of teaching soldiers as well as telling the world it was no longer acceptable to harm people simply for being gay. Instead, we got a federal law telling everyone gay people must be harmed.
While leaving it all alone might have not been any better, the promise was to end the ban. I think he could have pulled it off, and believe that would have moved us further, faster.
But we'll never know, so nothing left but to go forward from here. Advancements in equal rights are often the painful result of efforts to restrict them.

I further believe the real purpose of continuing a ban, was to enshrine in the law that same old message that gay people must be punished for being gay.
The real goal as well as the effect of DADT and other anti-gay laws, is to preserve and promote the prejudice they accommodate.
Since: Jun 11
#18 Mar 14, 2013
While this (from Gill) is about marriage, not DADT, it demonstrates anti-gay laws are based on neither reason nor reality, but a desire to punish.
"In sum, this court is soundly convinced, based on the foregoing analysis, that the government's proffered rationales, past and current, are without "footing in the realities of the subject addressed by DOMA." And "when the proffered rationales for a law are clearly and manifestly implausible, a reviewing court may infer that animus is the only explicable basis. Because animus alone cannot constitute a legitimate government interest, " this court finds that DOMA lacks a rational basis to support it.
This court simply "cannot say that DOMA is directed to any identifiable legitimate purpose or discrete objective. It is a status-based enactment divorced from any factual context from which this court could discern a relationship to legitimate government interests. Indeed, Congress undertook this classification for the one purpose that lies entirely outside of legislative bounds, to disadvantage a group of which it disapproves. And such a classification, the Constitution clearly will not permit.

I simply can't agree. I think the intent of DADT was an attempt to make things just a little bit better for those serving in the military.
No matter how it may have turned out when implemented, as someone who actually served under both policies, I will always believe the intent of DADT was to make things just a little better for gay & lesbian servicemembers. Not everything is about civilians.

Dhareshwar Shiva is a manifestation of Shiva mentioned in the Kashi Khand of Skanda Purana. Dhareshwar Shivling is worshipped in
Varanasi and in western parts of India
especially in Pune and near Gokarna in Karnataka.
Dhareshwar is also one of the pancha kshetras or five holy places viz., Gokarna, Murdeshwar, Dhareshwar, Gunavante and Sejjeshwar.
The popular belief is that worshipping Dhareshwar Shiva will help in attaining moksha.
As Dhareshwar, Shiva is the one who supports the universe and the five elements.
Another belief is that Shiva is Dhareshwar because he controls the flow of
on Earth. Earth was
not capable of taking the flow of Ganga
River Ganga from
heaven. To control the huge powerful flow of Ganga,
Shiva took Her on His head.
When Shiva is Dhareshwar, Goddess Shakti appears as Dhareshwar Devi.

Adrian Conner and her band know all the tricks to conquering the love of an audience with a utility belt of versatility; loud rock, acoustic rock, stunning original material, peppering the experience with songs you know and love to air guitar. No stranger to playing guitar on the actual bar, Adrian and her band will demand your attention and win your heart.
Described as "Exciting, rambunctious and kinda scary" by Guitar Player Magazine; Adrian delivers a wealth of material from interpretations of acoustic metal songs like Zeppelin's Bron-Y-Aur stomp with a sweet voice, to her more aggressive snarling guitar originals as well as her pop rock material. Some of which are co-written with Kathy Valentine of the Go-Go's which won Adrian a Best of Austin Music Award.
Her affection for all things rock n' roll is evidenced by the fact that she has spent 15 years as the lead guitarist in Hell's Belles, the highly touted all female AC/DC tribute band from Seattle of which Angus Young himself is a fan. She serves in a similar capacity for the Judas Priest tribute Belles Bent For Leather.
Despite spending an enormous amount of time touring in support all three projects, the Austin/Seattle native rocker finds plenty of time to feed her songwriting soul by touring with her solo band. Some highlights of which include opening for Concrete Blonde, Brody Dalle, the Texas Tornados.
"Raw, edgy, filled with unstoppable confidence… " Maria Mesa, Austin DAZE

South Carolina's late-deciding voters pushed Newt Gingrich to victory, according to exit polls in the state. The former House speaker's strong performances in the debates leading up to the contest plus a conservative-leaning electorate led to a sizable win for Gingrich.
LATE DECIDERS: A majority of South Carolina Republican voters said they decided on a candidate in the last few days, and they favored Gingrich by a 22-point margin. Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney were about even for second among this group.
BROADLY CONSERVATIVE: About 7 in 10 voters in South Carolina said they tilt conservative on most political matters, according to exit polls. That group broke 45 percent for Gingrich to 24 percent for Romney and 19 percent for Santorum. Moderate and liberal voters split between Romney and Gingrich.
RELIGIOUS VOTERS: Almost two-thirds of voters in South Carolina said they are born again or evangelical Christians, and 26 percent said it was deeply important that a candidate share their religious views. Voters in both groups preferred Gingrich to Romney by wide margins.
SEEKING A WINNER: Forty-five percent of voters said the most important trait they sought in a candidate was the ability to beat President Barack Obama in November, and a majority of these voters backed Gingrich. That's a reversal from New Hampshire and Iowa, where voters prioritizing electability backed Romney. Just 38 percent said they would support Romney enthusiastically should he win the nomination.
READING THE RESUME: Two-thirds of South Carolina voters said they had a positive impression of Romney's background investing in and restructuring companies, and Romney held a slim, 40 to 36 percent edge over Gingrich among those voters. However, he carried just 3 percent of the vote among those with a negative view of his time as a venture capitalist.
FACING ECONOMIC CHALLENGES: The share of South Carolina GOP voters who said they are falling behind financially has nearly doubled since 2008, and economic worries are pervasive. Almost 8 in 10 voters said they were very worried about the future of the nation's economy, and 31 percent said someone in their household had lost a job since the start of Obama's term. These voters and those who called the economy their top issue tilted toward Gingrich.
RATING THE GOVERNOR: Two-thirds of South Carolina voters said they approved of Gov. Nikki Haley, who endorsed Romney and campaigned with him throughout the state. Her popularity failed to help Romney, however, as those who approve of her performance in office voted 42 percent for Gingrich to 30 percent for Romney.
These results are from an exit poll conducted for AP and the television networks by Edison Research as voters left their polling places at 35 randomly selected sites in South Carolina. The survey involved interviews with 2,381 Republican primary voters and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

The most tremendous voyages are sometimes taken without moving from the spot.
THE GESTALT MARATHON is an indoor, static marathon, with all its participants inside a large, conducive room weary and confounded from the in-depth processes, emotional exercises, experimentations, and self-encounters and discoveries yet equipped with an awareness so sharp it cuts deep through the surface of their perceived experience and evokes rich and different perspectives from within—perspectives that are at least insightful, freeing, and integrative, if not directly curative.
` Awareness per se, by and in itself, can be curative. (Perls)
In August 2009, after two days of intensive self-awareness activities, I have stepped upon this new ground where I have made contact with myself and understood "awareness" not just in its psychical nature but also in its biological, instinctive sense (as an élan vital that encompasses not just humans but all of life). "Our awareness is all that is alive and maybe sacred in us. Everything else about us is dead machinery" (Vonnegut, Breakfast of Champions).
Though abstract—and sometimes abstruse, elusive, and ineffable—awareness also seemed like a state of matter, at least to me: I have my hands on it, uncomprehendingly feeling its fluctuations, its rising and falling (a lifeline), and its pulsing, as though a heart, from the deepest trenches of my skull-sized ocean.
Franz Kafka spoke of literature "as an axe with which we chop at the frozen seas inside us." The same thing can be said of the Gestalt marathon. With all the compression and pressure already inside the participants—their lifelong suppressed issues and traumas remaining incessantly percussive via neuroses—the release is akin to an eruption of a dormant volcano that has long forgotten about its own existence but suddenly awakens from this amnesia of living.
The Gestalt marathon offered me a chance to let my deep-seated feelings burst and tear down my prison and chains, albeit not permanently. When I found out that, by theory and experience, there's a rhythmic relationship (contact and withdrawal) even to such things like freedom and captivity, I started building another prison, this time, of my own choosing: it is an inner world where I can give my thoughts free rein without extrinsic influences and only led by pure impulses bubbling from the well that is my soul (my organism). I believe that opposites complement one another, as in the principles of Taoism of light and darkness. Truth is that nature is cyclic, inevitable, and necessary.
The walls of this prison mirror my solitude, but this voyage of the mind arrives at a fecundity of potentials that is seeking to be drawn into life and to participate in reality. It's like slipping into a dream and waking up with Samuel Coleridge's flower in hand.
What if you slept
And what if
In your sleep
You dreamed
And what if
In your dream
You went to heaven
And there plucked a strange and beautiful flower
And what if
When you awoke
You had that flower in you hand
Ah, what then? (Coleridge)
Conversely (this time, the flower is from the outside), at moments of selfless subjectivity, which I soon learn from Gestalt therapy, I take note of how an external stimulus passes "through my senses and into my mind" and watch the whole course of this awareness continuum bifurcating through the labyrinth, along with its curious loops and random turns and associations. This is why time passes inside the mind differently (in our heads lies a "battleground of invisible forces").
We are aware of the age-old adage of the "mind being an excellent servant but a terrible master." The mind is the center where we process what our senses gathered. The Gestalt marathon freed my mind—and thus freed me from it—and attuned me well with my senses. An awareness that is not just run by the brain but also by the pleading of the guts has been born. (The finish line of the marathon is integration: the mind-and-body split made whole.)
The "frozen seas" are chopped down; the seas become an ocean. My awareness circles above like a bird. But all of life follows the rhythm of life. Parts of my ocean will, in its own time, freeze. However, that's not a bad thing; it has to happen so I can rest on top the labyrinths.
Koryu, look. The birds are going back north.
I wonder who said that birds are free?
Though they fly in the sky freely,
If they had no place to arrive or branches to rest on,
They might even regret having wings.
What is true freedom?
It is, perhaps, having a place to go back to. (Koumyou Sanzo)

Metairie deathsruled as homicides
Metairie — The deaths of two Metairie men found dead inside their apartment on Thursday have been ruled homicides, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office announced on Thursday.
Akeem Boudreaux, 22, and Morris Alexander Williams, 26, were found dead by a friend inside their apartment in the 2200 block of Edenborn Avenue.
Initially, because of the decomposition of the bodies, authorities were not sure if their deaths were a murder/suicide, or a double homicide, said Col. John Fortunato, a sheriff's spokesman. It has now been determined that both men were shot in the head by someone else.
Fortunato confirmed that there had been reports of prostitution at a previous apartment the men occupied. No motive or suspects have been released in the case.
Woman accused of role in shooting
Harvey — A Harvey woman has been accused of participating in a shooting near her home last year but her exact role in the incident is still murky.
Iesha Ross was booked with being a principal to attempted second-degree murder in connection with a brazen shooting on Dec. 29. According to an incident report from the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office, a 23-year-old man was at his apartment in the 1000 block of Estalote Street when an unknown man knocked on the door.
The victim said the man asked for his roommate, and when the victim said the roommate wasn't home the man pulled out a gun. According to the report, the man tried to shoot the victim but the gun jammed. The victim then closed the door and hid behind a sofa, and the gunman fired several shots into the apartment through a window. The report did not describe Ross' role in the incident.

text: From the start of the season, William Buford was supposed to be a key player, and starter to the Buckeyes this year. But what happened? He reminded me of a great football player, Cameron Heyward. They both took games off and didn't try at all. It was a disappointment of a senior season for him. He has a great point guard in Craft, great post with Sully, great well, everything with Thomas. So why does he not feel the need to take the role over as one of the only seniors on the team. This was his year to shine and he failed to accomplish that. I love him and loved watching him play, but disappointment set in after a while.

Hits and Misses: Water quota boost would help farmers; Purple Heart rights old wrong
May 16, 2013
We've known the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District to be smart and visionary in its management of water supplies for the many decades it has been in existence.
So we'll trust the decision the district board makes today. But we're also hoping that the board will increase its water quota for the Colorado Big-Thompson Project, which is the largest water-supply system in northern Colorado.
Snowpack in the past six weeks has increased dramatically — thank you, Mother Nature — in the two river basins that supply water to Greeley and farmers in Weld County. The 60 percent water quota set by the NCWCD board a month ago seemed prudent at the time when snowpack levels were extremely low, for the second straight winter.
We understand that NCWCD still has some big holes to fill — meaning reservoirs in the northern Colorado mountains are lower than normal, and water officials need to replenish them. But increasing the water quota just 10 percentage points, up to 70 percent, would make available an additional 31,000 acre-feet of water to northern Colorado cities, farmers and ranchers.
We believe the move also would have a secondary benefit. Many cities in this region normally lease excess water to farmers, but this year they have said that is unlikely given the 60 percent quota. The higher quota might cause cities to rethink their position, and allow them to release at least a little more water to the ag industry.
We understand that water management is a complicated issue in our region, and we trust the conservancy district board to do what's right for the long-term strength of the system.

Karl deserves league award
Despite another early exit from the NBA playoffs this season, we need to give kudos to Denver Nuggets' head coach George Karl for being named the league's coach of the year.
It's been a long time coming for Karl, who just completed his 25th season as an NBA head coach. He's earned 1,131 career victories, which places him sixth among all coaches in league history. And his 423 victories as the Nuggets' coach places him a close second behind legendary Denver coach Doug Moe.
This season Karl took one of the youngest teams in the league and coached them to a franchise-record 57 victories. The Nuggets lacked a true superstar yet played a fast-paced, entertaining game that led the league in scoring and home victories. While it would have been nice to see a longer post-season, Karl is certainly deserving of the award.
Justice finally done with purple heart honor
The point of a purple heart is to remember those killed or injured in action.
That's why we're glad to see a man with ties to Greeley who had been forgotten finally receive one.
Thomas Feldhaus was killed when the helicopter he was riding in took heavy fire and crashed. His body was burned so badly that his family wanted a closed casket funeral.
His second-oldest brother, Don Feldhaus, a former city councilman, worked hard to see that Thomas get that purple heart.
We're glad he finally got it more than 40 years after it was due. That way he can be remembered.
Former Bear makes us proud
We were happy to learn last week that a former University of Northern Colorado football player is among a group of elite athletes who will participate in a study aimed at diagnosing and treating brain injuries.
Stalls, who played for UNC in the 1970s before going on to a career in the NFL with Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Raiders, will participate in the study at Boston University. He enrolled in the research project with 99 other former NFL players and 50 other elite athletes. The goal of the study is to identify the indicators that could enable doctors to diagnose chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, in living patients and find ways to treat it.
Stalls also has started the Street Fraternity in Denver, to help young men overcome their violent past.
We're pretty proud of this former Bear.

"Guy wins a game and we're ready to build a statue for him."
We are? News to me, coach.
That would be the don't-ask-don't tell secret that young James Reimer had drawn the starting assignment against Boston Monday night — a decision that was imparted to the netminder at practice Sunday but kept on the QT by Ron Wilson, who didn't want the molesting media in his rookie's face about it.
"I don't want him to be bothered," Wilson said after Toronto had dropped a 2-1 decision to the Bruins at the Air Canada Centre.
It's unlikely the affable Manitoba native would have gone all squirrelly had he been subjected to reportorial interrogation in the interim. Just doesn't seem like the sort to get discombobulated by locker-room scrums.
For his part, the 22-year-old was careful to note he'd never actually lied about the matter. "I don't think I was ever asked the question directly, so I didn't have to dodge too much.
"He tells me what not to say. He's the boss."
On this evening — his second consecutive start — Reimer earned his salary, turning aside 31 of 33 Bruin shots, if ultimately to no avail.
For a club so conflicted between the goal posts, Toronto has been a veritable netminding hatchery over recent years.
This is, admittedly, where goalies come to crack up.
The Maple Leafs have had masked men coming out the ying-yang over the past decade — which maybe explains why no solid, undisputed, No. 1 starter has emerged since, oh, the days of Ed Belfour.
Road kill along the Buds' Boulevard of Broken Dreams include: Andrew Raycroft, Vesa Toskala, Justin Pogge, J.S. Aubin, Mikael Tellqvist, Scott Clemmensen ...
And that other Finn, Tuukka Rask — Toronto's top draft pick in 2005, heralded as perhaps the stopper of the future, or at least a spare for the goaltending heir as personified by Pogge, Toronto's top draft pick in 2004.
Rask was thereafter dispatched to Boston as part of the regrettable Raycroft trade.
Last time we looked, Pogge was labouring for the AHL Charlotte Checkers, traveling ever more distant from an NHL career.
It was Rask at the opposite end of the rink last night, versus Reimer, drafted 99th by Toronto in '06, all the baby goalies — Rask and Pogge and Reimer — snorting and nickering in the Leaf stable fleetingly. "He got traded the year I was drafted," Reimer recalled of his winning opponent.
Retrospectively, how unlikely it seems that Reimer was the one to stick around, if way beneath the radar, a steady presence with the Marlies until called up a fortnight ago in the injury absence of J-S Giguere.
Toronto has been a Bermuda Triangle for netminders, especially those trying to launch their NHL careers.
"In the recent past, it seems like a lot of goalies have come through here," Reimer admitted. "But I'm confident in my abilities and, given the opportunity, I think I can make it in the Toronto market."
It would be too cruel to make anything more of Reimer's current Toronto engagement than what it is: An emergency, temporary assignment. The kid's likely going back to the minors imminently, though perhaps not before Toronto heads out on a western road swing next week.
"Actually, I don't think so," Wilson countered when a media scruff inquired whether Reimer would shortly be returned to the Marlies, though that might simply be disinformation.
Unexpectedly, last night's matchup turned into a goaltending duel, with Rask and Reimer — R 'n' R — going mano-a-mano between the pipes.
If nothing else, with his first career start on Saturday, a 5-1 win over Ottawa, and the impressive effort against Boston, Reimer might at least have elevated his trade-bait value, showing a nifty glove hand and solid positioning technique.
"He's calm and he has a calming effect on the defense too," noted Wilson.
If a Leaf other than Mikhail Grabovski had evinced any scoring finish around the other net, Reimer would not have suffered his first ever NHL loss.
So: 1-1 lifetime as a Leaf. Of course, for goalies who pass this way, that Blue bio is often brutally short.

Huawei IDEOS X5 Preview
0. phoneArena posted on 24 Jan 2011, 07:51
Somewhat overshadowed by the plethora of big name handset announcements during CES, the Huawei IDEOS X5 quietly arrived on the scene with its mid-range specs in tow. Although we had some brief hands-on time with the upcoming Android 2.2 Froyo smartphone during the event, we're getting some intimate one on one time with a prototype unit...
This is a discussion for a review. To read the whole review, click here

It would be definitely interesting to watch how this phone plays out in the USA. Huawei is taking stake by getting serious about their American handsets, as evident by this mid-range smartphone.

Having bought my first smart phone back in January, a Ideos U8150, I instantly fell in love with the whole Android/Google setup (My wife even bought one). Being able to sync all your contacts, birthdays, tasks and calendar with the phone and the web is fantastic. So 2 weeks ago I upgraded to the X5. While I loved the little U8150, the X5 is so much better, not only the larger screen/resolution, but the speed as well. And Android Market is amazing, so many apps, both free and to buy. I've downloaded about 12, including Poweramp, Lookout, Quickpic, Batterychecker, iSyncr to name a few.
At NZ$549 it was the best value for money on the market. This model from 2 Degrees came with a 2gb internal card, and I fitted the 8gb card from my old phone, more than enough room for my photos and music. And no it doesn't have a radio, but I'd never use it because you need the corded headphones to act as a aerial, I much prefer my Bluetooth head phones (no dam cords to get tangled). If you are thinking about getting a smart phone, don't hesitate, they're not that hard to operate (I'm no spring chicken and I didn't have any trouble) and I would highly recommend the X5 to anyone.

Can it be upgraded to android 2.3 gingerbread?
6. georgenz (Posts: 1; Member since: 19 Dec 2011)
Yes it can, I recently loaded 2.35 beta and instantly noticed a performance increase, and battery life improved by at least 50% even with gps and bluetooth turned on.
Apparently ful version of 2.35 Gingerbread is due to be released 31st Dec 2011 but the beta works great.

I bought the X5 last weekend - quite surprised myself with the $349 spend, but am very pleased I did. My son now has my old phone and I am learning to become a savvy user of the android. I like the smooth look with only 2 external buttons and find the touch-screen responsive and easy to navigate. Camera is great quality although shutter speed is a little slow -maybe I just need to practise more. Love the phone and would recommend to anyone without an iPhone budget. Using 2degrees is awesome too.

Unlike in other countries that lived violent revolutions, the King of Morocco chose the other way, he said after a meeting with minister of foreign affairs and cooperation, Saad Dine Otmani.
Rev. Jackson, currently on a visit to Morocco also considered that the settlement of the Sahara issue goes through a fair and transparent negotiations process supervised by the United Nations, stressing that Algeria and Morocco are able to find a common ground, owing to the shared history and deep roots existing between them.
Rev. Jesse Jackson also met on the same day with speaker of the House of representatives Karim Ghellab, who briefed him on the specificity of reforms conducted in Morocco in various fields, under the leadership of the Sovereign.
