The Sierra Club works to protect communities, wild places, and the planet itself. It is the largest, most influential grassroots environmental organization with over 1.4 million members across America. The goals set forth by the club are to have safe and healthy communities to live in, implement smart energy systems to battle global warming, and to create a lasting legacy for the wild places that still remain in the United States.
The Mission of the Sierra Club is, "to explore, enjoy, and protect the wild places of the earth; to practice and promote the responsible use of the earth's ecosystems and resources; to educate and enlist humanity to protect and restore the quality of the natural and human environment; and to use all lawful means to carry out these objectives."
The Central Florida chapter of the Sierra Club consists of 2,100 members in the four surrounding counties. Monthly meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month at Leu Gardens where a guest speaker is featured or an education session is presented. The topics discussed at the meetings are centered on Florida's distinctive ecology. The Central Florida chapter also partakes in weekly outdoor adventures including hiking, bicycling, kayaking, camping, backpacking, and conservation oriented walks into natural areas that still remain around the area.

Kavon Coleman is a star athlete who should be enjoying his senior year of high school. Instead he is badly wounded and barely able to get out of bed. He was shot at a bus stop because somebody allegedly wanted his sneakers.
He must use a walker to move. It takes Coleman five pain filled minutes to go from his bedroom to the living room sofa only 30 feet away.
Coleman worked hard and saved $410 to buy a pair of Air Jordan Retro basketball shoes. With his new shoes on, he and a buddy got off the bus at Forrer and Schoolcraft in northwest Detroit at 8:00 p.m. on August 18.
"They (were) in a minivan. The one pulled the door back. Then the one on the passenger side hoped out. They (said), 'Don't run,' and my friend took off and then I kind of froze," Coleman explained.
Suddenly, he was shot. He ran, but then collapsed. Witnesses said that van sped off. They did not steal his shoes.
The 18-year-old was riddled with pain. Doctors told him he was shot in the rectum, the abdomen and a bullet tore through a nerve in his right leg. He has trouble moving his right foot.
Coleman has a colostomy bag attached 24 hours a day. He wishes he was with his friends in high school, and he is surprised he is alive. His buddy returned after the shooting to help him get to the hospital.
"I was laying there. I kept telling him like I'm about to die, bro. He grabbed my hand and told me I wasn't about to die," said Coleman.
Detroit EMS rushed Coleman to Siani-Grace Hospital. He slept for three days while doctors performed surgeries.
The 6'1", 170 pound basketball star with a table full of trophies who also ran high hurdles in track has lost 45 pounds and now weighs 125 pounds.
"He's still living his life (normally) while... I'm in pain every day, all day," Coleman said.
He hopes someone can help identify the person that shot him. If you have information call Detroit Police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.
Coleman told us he is confident he will play basketball again.

After an officer is involved shooting this past January, the Potter County Grand Jury has cleared that officer of all wrongdoing.
It happened January 12, 2013 at the Holiday Inn near I-40 and Ross. Officers were in the middle of an arrest when a woman stole van, ran it into the suspects car, then struck a patrol car and proceeded to turn back toward the officer. The officer feared being run over and fired three rounds at the van, missing the woman but stopping her long enough to arrest her.
Again, since being reviewed by the grand jury, the officer was found faultless and the woman, 20-year-old Natasha Ramirez was indicted Wednesday for Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle and Aggravated Assault on a Public Servant.
"She had a few glass injuries from the broken glass, a few cuts, but the projectiles did hit the vehicle in the driver's area, but they did not hit her," said Potter County District Attorney Randall Sims.
Officer involved shootings typically result in that officer being placed on a minimum three day administrative leave. But officials say that didn't happen in this case, most likely, because Ramirez was not injured by the gunshots.

Mystic -There appears to be an end in sight for the construction work in downtown Mystic.
Members of the Mystic Cooperative Task Group met Monday morning for updates on the state's Mystic drawbridge repair project and troubled streetscape project.
While most of the streetscape work is done, the town awaits installation of railings, trash receptacles and benches, along with some "punch list items," said project manager Rick Norris.
"We're really trying hard to get the contractor to finish up," Norris said.
The project, undertaken by Pettini Construction, was slated for completion in June 2012 but had hit delays, the most notable being removal of utility poles along the stretch of West Main Street. The project includes new expanded sidewalks, underground utilities, fresh pavement, granite curbing and lighting.
By contract, Pettini is subject to liquidated damages of $500 a day past the scheduled completion date.
Groton Director of Planning Michael Murphy said the town expects the contract to be closed out by May in time for the town to gear up for phase II. He said further delays could also have implications on federal stimulus money involved with the project.
"The work has continued well beyond what we expected," Murphy said. "The town's position has been consistent - we need the few remaining items done."
Work on the less disruptive phase two, which has not yet gone out to bid, is expected to start in the late summer. That project, on Water Street, is a smaller in scale and includes paving, curbing, additional parking and sidewalk work.
Meanwhile, the state Department of Transportation is expected to wrap up repairs to the Mystic drawbridge rehabilitation project by mid-April.
A 54-hour closure of the bridge, one of two expected before April 15, is slated to start March 6.
And despite some recent store closings in downtown, Greater Mystic Chamber of Commerce President Tricia Walsh, said "all hope is not lost."
Walsh said with some recent and planned store closings there will be five vacant downtown storefronts formerly occupied by Studio Jeffery P'an, Catherine M, Webster Road, The Cooper Shoppe and Whyevernot. Walsh said most store owners did not directly blame the work, saying "each of the closings were for different reasons."
Walsh said she was eager to hold some type of ribbon-cutting in downtown when work is done, a moral booster for the businesses and locals alike.
A few other projects are coming in the interim. The Town of Stonington has announced plans to repave several roads on the east side of Mystic, including Cottrell and Holmes streets. That work will begin in March, sometime after St. Patrick's Day, according to Joe Bragaw, Stonington's director of public works.
Bragaw said the town would try and be sensitive and "nimble" about getting the work done with little impact on businesses.
Developers who proposed building a multi-story building at the site of a prominent West Main Street structure burned more than a decade ago have yet to announce a timeline for construction.

Prosecutors say the hearings for a Detroit-area man accused of hiring a handyman to kill his wife is expected to take about five days.
The preliminary hearings are to decide if there's enough evidence to try Robert Bashara for first-degree murder began Monday afternoon.
The hearing was originally scheduled for 9 a.m., but due to a police situation earlier at the courthouse, it was rescheduled for the afternoon.
Jane Bashara's body was found Jan 24, 2012, in her Mercedes-Benz in a Detroit alley, a few miles from the couple's home in Grosse Pointe Park. Joseph Gentz has pleaded guilty to strangling her, saying he did so at her husband's behest.Bashara already is serving up to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to trying to hire someone to kill Gentz in jail. He's denied being involved in his wife's death.

DH is off island working. He's been gone already for 2 weeks. We are flying up to visit him from Dec 5- Dec 10. He was supposed to come home by Dec 18. His boss just asked him to work until the 23rd!!! We are HUGE Christmas celebrators and him already not being here in the month of December is well, depressing to say the least. We could use the money if he stayed, but I'm thinking I rather have him home. We are definitely not well off, so the extra money would go to savings or paying off some bills and probably a few more presents. We are looking at one weeks work maybe $2500-$3000. Would you have him stay and work? Or would you say no way and have him fly home Dec. 18? His boss is giving him a choice. We know the smarter thing would be to work, but man. We had plans the week he was off. We were going to do all kinds of things. Not to mention my sister is flying up to spend some time with us...I was hoping DH would be there so he could watch kids and we could have sister time to do sister things here-shes never been here before.
We also told DD that Daddy would be there for her Christmas performance. If he stays there, he misses it. So WWYD??

KLTV has learned that the mother and daughter who were found dead in their Longview duplex died of gunshot wounds.
According to Precinct 2 Justice of the Peace Arthur Fort, the autopsy report reveals that 28-year-old Laytoya Reese and her 11-year-old daughter Mya Rosetta Nichol Sebron were shot to death.
Authorities say that La Toya was shot twice in the head, and that her young daughter, Mya, died from multiple gunshot wounds.
Officials have identified the victims whose bodies were discovered Wednesday afternoon at a duplex in Longview.
Gregg County Precinct 2 Justice of the Peace Arthur Fort says the bodies were that of 28-year-old Latoya Reese and her 11-year-old daughter Mya Rosetta Nichol Sebron.
The two bodies have been transported to Tyler for autopsy.
JP Fort says the investigation will move forward as a double homicide.
In a press conference Thursday afternoon, Officer Kristie Brian with the Longview Police Department said investigators are looking for a person of interest in connection with the double homicide.
Police did not release the name of the person of interest, and stated they are not a suspect at this time.
Officer Kristie Brian with the Longview Police Department said, "We've had representatives of the District Attorney's office, Longview Police Department here at the scene taking pictures, video, measurements and things of that nature."
Longview Police obtained a search warrant, Wednesday afternoon and entered the scene at The Timbers community, in the 100 block of Jester Circle, a duplex community on the west side of town.
Longview Police say after responding to a welfare check, they made initial entry into the residence, saw two deceased individuals inside the home, and left the unit while awaiting a search warrant.
The residence is approximately half a mile south of Pine Tree Elementary.
On Friday afternoon, Pine Tree ISD issued the following statement:

Okay, just looked up a popular science book I am going to read. It's called "Your Inner Fish: A Journey into the 3.5-Billion-Year History of the Human Body."
This is a quote from the author:
A Note from Author Neil Shubin
This book grew out of an extraordinary circumstance in my life. On account of faculty departures, I ended up directing the human anatomy course at the University of Chicago medical school. Anatomy is the course during which nervous first-year medical students dissect human cadavers while learning the names and organization of most of the organs, holes, nerves, and vessels in the body. This is their grand entrance to the world of medicine, a formative experience on their path to becoming physicians. At first glance, you couldn't have imagined a worse candidate for the job of training the next generation of doctors: I'm a fish paleontologist.
It turns out that being a paleontologist is a huge advantage in teaching human anatomy. Why? The best roadmaps to human bodies lie in the bodies of other animals. The simplest way to teach students the nerves in the human head is to show them the state of affairs in sharks. The easiest roadmap to their limbs lies in fish. Reptiles are a real help with the structure of the brain. The reason is that the bodies of these creatures are simpler versions of ours.
During the summer of my second year leading the course, working in the Arctic, my colleagues and I discovered fossil fish that gave us powerful new insights into the invasion of land by fish over 375 million years ago. That discovery and my foray into teaching human anatomy led me to a profound connection. That connection became this book.

Indoor track season opens Jan. 14 in Spearfish
Number of Panthers competing for Cody Broncs
Indoor track season opens Jan. 14 and, similar to past years, a number of Powell High School athletes will take advantage of a cooperative agreement to compete as part of the Cody High School team. Defending state indoor high jump champion and two-time 3A outdoor high jump champ Kyle Sullivan headlines the sizeable group.
SPORTS GUY: Giving sports a black eye
They say life begins at 40. Maybe that's why it took four decades for yours truly to be served up his first black eye.
The life moment occurred roughly two hours before the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve when the puck at the Yellowstone Quake hockey game ricocheted into the area where I was standing to photograph the game. It bounced off the boards first, but ultimately wound up bouncing off me as I attempted to evade its flight path.
Casper pressure topples Trappers
Stellar defensive effort squandered
Without glancing at the scoreboard, one look at Northwest College head coach Andy Ward's face told the tale on Saturday night. The Trappers dropped a 70-59 decision to Casper.
"We did our best to give them the game and they stepped forward and took it," Ward said.
Buzzer beaters: Late shot lifts PHS boys to perfect weekend
Marshall McArthur's last-second shot lifted the Powell Panthers to a 53-51 victory over Jackson and saved head coach Mike Heny some significant second-guessing.
"We called a time out to set up the final play, because that's not really a situation we've practiced yet," Heny said of the tie game facing the Panthers in the waning seconds. "Right as we called it Coop (Powell guard Cooper Wise) got free for an uncontested layup."

The seedings for the NJCAA men's soccer national championship tournament were announced Tuesday and, as expected, the Trappers will have some work to do. Northwest opens tournament action at 3 p.m., Monday, against unbeaten Louisburg College out of North Carolina.
The Sports Guy: Two teams, two roads
The fall sports calendar will finish playing out this week as the Powell High School football team and the Northwest College men's soccer team both head to their respective championship events. Two teams could not have taken two more diverse roads to reach their destinations.
Return trip
Panthers fight past Green River to reach title game
If there was one glaring question mark on the Powell Panthers' 2012 football resume going into Friday night's semifinals, it was how the team would respond if faced with adversity. After all, when your average victory margin during the year has been 38 points, there's not much room for adversity.
Georgia on their minds
Trapper men's soccer heading for nationals
The crazy postseason ride for the Northwest College men's soccer team just keeps getting better and better. Once thought done for the year, the Trapper men upset third-ranked Yavapai 4-2 on Friday, then avenged a regional final loss to Western Wyoming by a 1-0 final on Saturday to win the district title.
NWC Trappers ousted in regional tournament
Team finishes year 21-11
The No. 20 Northwest College Trappers fell short of an opportunity to qualify for the national championships, dropping two of three games at the Region IX North tournament last week in Powell. The Trappers conclude their season at 21-11 overall.
Back from the dead
Season not over for Trapper men's soccer
After an agonizing 2-1 loss to Western Wyoming in the championship game on Sunday, Northwest College men's soccer coach Rob Hill had already begun the adjustment to the off-season. He'd even scheduled a time for players to hand in their uniforms and gear.
Green River returns to Powell for playoffs
Semifinal contest determines who gets to state in Laramie
The Powell Panthers host Green River for the second time in three weeks. Last time, the stake was the 3A West regular season conference title and home field advantage for the playoffs. This time around, the prize is even bigger — a trip to Laramie.

Detroit's nine-member Financial Advisory Board is now sworn in and ready to
take on the daunting task of turning the city around in the midst of a $260-million deficit. Detroit Mayor Dave Bing thanked the board members and laid out the city's
"The number one issue on everybody's mind has been public safety.
The people are really concerned about the lack of lights in our city," he said.
Other issues include recreation
centers, public transportation,
vacant properties and so much more.
The group went into closed session
for more than an hour to discuss the city's labor contracts,
which expire June 30.
This whole process is required under
the Financial Stability Agreement with the state, and the next
three years, their goal is to reduce the city's long-term liabilities by $3-billion and eliminate the deficit.
"We don't have all the answers. Maybe that's where you come in and
really can be a support system to us," Bing said.
"If there is anything that is too difficult for us to tackle, then
we're the wrong people," said board member Glenda Price.
"This is going to be very interesting. I mean, this is going to be changing the culture
of a government, the culture of a region, the culture of a city, and it's
step up time for everybody," said former Detroit City Councilwoman Sheila Cockrel.
We didn't hear too many specifics on how they plan to get all of this done, but this was only the first meeting. We're told the group plans to meet
monthly and probably more, although the next meeting has not yet been set.

- Arrhythmia (1)
- Cardiac arrest (1)
- Sudden cardiac death (1)
- Surrogate endpoint (1)
- T-wave alternans (1)
- Ventricular tachyarrhythmic event (1)
- Evidence regarding clinical use of microvolt T-wave alternans (2011)
- Background: Microvolt T-wave alternans (MTWA) testing in many studies has proven to be a highly accurate predictor of ventricular tachyarrhythmic events (VTEs) in patients with risk factors for sudden cardiac death (SCD) but without a prior history of sustained VTEs (primary prevention patients). In some recent studies involving primary prevention patients with prophylactically implanted cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), MTWA has not performed as well. Objective: This study examined the hypothesis that MTWA is an accurate predictor of VTEs in primary prevention patients without implanted ICDs, but not of appropriate ICD therapy in such patients with implanted ICDs. Methods: This study identified prospective clinical trials evaluating MTWA measured using the spectral analytic method in primary prevention populations and analyzed studies in which: (1) few patients had implanted ICDs and as a result none or a small fraction (≤15%) of the reported end point VTEs were appropriate ICD therapies (low ICD group), or (2) many of the patients had implanted ICDs and the majority of the reported end point VTEs were appropriate ICD therapies (high ICD group). Results: In the low ICD group comprising 3,682 patients, the hazard ratio associated with a nonnegative versus negative MTWA test was 13.6 (95% confidence interval [CI] 8.5 to 30.4) and the annual event rate among the MTWA-negative patients was 0.3% (95% CI: 0.1% to 0.5%). In contrast, in the high ICD group comprising 2,234 patients, the hazard ratio was only 1.6 (95% CI: 1.2 to 2.1) and the annual event rate among the MTWA-negative patients was elevated to 5.4% (95% CI: 4.1% to 6.7%). In support of these findings, we analyzed published data from the Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Trial II (MADIT II) and Sudden Cardiac Death in Heart Failure Trial (SCD-HeFT) trials and determined that in those trials only 32% of patients who received appropriate ICD therapy averted an SCD. Conclusion: This study found that MTWA testing using the spectral analytic method provides an accurate means of predicting VTEs in primary prevention patients without implanted ICDs; in particular, the event rate is very low among such patients with a negative MTWA test. In prospective trials of ICD therapy, the number of patients receiving appropriate ICD therapy greatly exceeds the number of patients who avert SCD as a result of ICD therapy. In trials involving patients with implanted ICDs, these excess appropriate ICD therapies seem to distribute randomly between MTWA-negative and MTWA-nonnegative patients, obscuring the predictive accuracy of MTWA for SCD. Appropriate ICD therapy is an unreliable surrogate end point for SCD.

- N-terminal arginines modulate plasma-membrane localization of Kv7.1/KCNE1 channel complexes (2011)
- Background and Objective: The slow delayed rectifier current (IKs) is important for cardiac action potential termination. The underlying channel is composed of Kv7.1 α-subunits and KCNE1 β-subunits. While most evidence suggests a role of KCNE1 transmembrane domain and C-terminus for the interaction, the N-terminal KCNE1 polymorphism 38G is associated with reduced IKs and atrial fibrillation (a human arrhythmia). Structure-function relationship of the KCNE1 N-terminus for IKs modulation is poorly understood and was subject of this study. Methods: We studied N-terminal KCNE1 constructs disrupting structurally important positively charged amino-acids (arginines) at positions 32, 33, 36 as well as KCNE1 constructs that modify position 38 including an N-terminal truncation mutation. Experimental procedures included molecular cloning, patch-clamp recording, protein biochemistry, real-time-PCR and confocal microscopy. Results: All KCNE1 constructs physically interacted with Kv7.1. IKs resulting from co-expression of Kv7.1 with non-atrial fibrillation '38S' was greater than with any other construct. Ionic currents resulting from co-transfection of a KCNE1 mutant with arginine substitutions ('38G-3xA') were comparable to currents evoked from cells transfected with an N-terminally truncated KCNE1-construct ('Δ1-38'). Western-blots from plasma-membrane preparations and confocal images consistently showed a greater amount of Kv7.1 protein at the plasma-membrane in cells co-transfected with the non-atrial fibrillation KCNE1-38S than with any other construct. Conclusions: The results of our study indicate that N-terminal arginines in positions 32, 33, 36 of KCNE1 are important for reconstitution of IKs. Furthermore, our results hint towards a role of these N-terminal amino-acids in membrane representation of the delayed rectifier channel complex.

I am so sorry you are being jerked around w/ the Diflucan. I work in medicine (i'm a nurse practitioner) although I work in cardiology, so I'm no expert at babymaking medicine. . .but seriously, pharmacists can be a little over the top sometimes. However, I would NEVER give medical advice in this circumstance, but I will tell you to call your dr. and let him know what the pharmacist said. I guess you could use vaginal suppositiories to treat the infection, but you need to talk this over with the doc, and if he wants you to take the Diflucan, that will override the pharmicist.
Just to vent. . .if it's in your system for 1 week, and assuming you ovulate TODAY, that's BARELY enough time for implantation much less development of a placenta and shared circulation. I think it's crap!!!!! Crap!

About eighteen months ago, maybe a bit longer, we began a process of deciding who we wanted to be as a company and what we thought we could achieve.
At that time, and up until yesterday, we were ELC Technologies. We had managed to be quite successful as a Ruby and Rails developer with an Agile bent. We had a great deal of experience working in the Cloud, particularly on two pioneering services, AWS and Heroku. We were there as alpha testers and could feel like pioneers in the space.
We just didn't want to be only that. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't ambitious enough for us.
So, we started off with a mission: To create software that makes the world a better place to live, work, and play. It simply says what we should be doing at our core, and what should be the motivating factor in our work. Software, in our opinion, is a creative process and it needs to aim high in the consciousness of its users because they have other options. They always have other options in a world that is driven by technology on devices that are attached to us almost twenty-four seven.
So, we needed to think bigger. We needed a range of services that we didn't have eighteen months ago, but that we knew we were doing, or could be doing, or should be doing. So, we recruited the right talent and worked on the right muscle groups to get strong enough to grow beyond being a Ruby and Rails dev shop. We needed to build our own infrastructure and capabilities to support development for a cross-device, multi-OS, ADD-addled world where you might be lucky to get someone's attention for a fraction of a second. And if you don't make the most of that fraction of a second with applications that are user-centric and perform well and are reliable then, it doesn't matter what your business plan or your marketing spend, you are likely to lose and not get a second chance.
It's a creative thing this software building thing, but it can be brutal, too. We had to smarten up and we needed to build out our organization to reflect the nature of a changing environment.
Today, Burnside Digital provides a suite of creative, consultative, technology and engineering services that enable applications to straddle the connected universe in a social, secure, and user centric way.
Burnside Digital has expertise in Agile development, Ruby and Rails, iOS, Android, Windows Mobile, Cloud Service Management, Legacy integration, UX and UI, User Centric Design, Clojure, JRuby, JavaScript, and can also help you recruit and train talent as you build out your Agile team.
We can do the lean start-up, and scale it to the enterprise ready application developer. We can be the helping hand on a project and we can be the architects of grand visions. We have all the pieces you need to meet the challenges of the mobile universe. The devices get smaller but the challenges get bigger. We are ready for whatever they are.
We are ready to create software that makes the world a better place to live, work, and play.

Liberty Central
About Us
Liberty Central – America's Public Square. We Listen. We Inspire. We Activate…to secure the blessings of liberty.
In November of 2009, Liberty Central, a 501(c)4 organization, was founded to harness the power of citizen voices, inform everyday Americans with knowledge, and activate them to preserve liberty. We recognized the need for our country to bridge the gap between our nation's citizens and its Capitol and return to a government that adheres to our core Founding Principles – limited government, personal responsibility, individual liberty, free enterprise, and national security. Working alongside like-minded organizations and individuals, Liberty Central assists new citizen-activists in their search for educational resources and for tangible ways to impact our current political environment.
Who are we?
Liberty Central is a non-partisan, 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization located near Washington, D.C., staffed and managed by seasoned patriotic activists who have enjoyed a huge track-record of success. We owe no party our allegiance, and recognize the value of working within a two-party system.
Each of us is a lifelong champion of liberty, with insistence on limited government. We have spoken truth to power and have not only survived, but have prospered and now encourage and inspire others to do the same.
In a nutshell: passion and courage coupled with action.
Liberty Central connects the grassroots of America with Washington, D.C. politicians and staffers. We serve both through our unique Lobbying for Liberty initiative, where we bring the grassroots concerns to the Washington, D.C. establishment, and the way in which we bring understanding of political posturing to the grassroots. We are different from other like-minded organizations because we have strong relationships with local activists, as well as federal-level politicians and staffers, and we have the passion and courage, coupled with action, to protect liberty for all Americans.
What do we do?
Millions of our friends and fellow Americans are yearning to be free, looking to exercise their right to a government of limited, enumerated powers. We help them do just that. The unique organization built by a creative team of grassroots activists uses the most effective ways to connect the Grassroots to the political class.
We also mainstream grassroots leadership, those who follow state and local community leaders, with established conservatives who are good friends of ours.
We help encourage and fund state and local events, offer organizational advice, make connections, establish link-ups, liaison with other like-minded D.C. Organizations, start new organizations, and find new members to join us. We appear on TV, Talk radio, write opinion pieces and articles, and otherwise maintain a high public profile for the cause of Liberty.
And now we do much more. Liberty Central 2.0 has a new President and CEO, Gary Aldrich, a former FBI Agent and bestselling author. Gary is leading Liberty Central toward a second path – the establishment of local, state, and regional chapters nationwide that will interface from the local district all the way up to the top!
We have members to visit and contact Members of Congress in their home district offices, and also an experienced staff to maintain a strong presence in the corridors of power, including the hallways of Capitol Hill and in the Executive Branch.
What makes us different from other such groups?
Liberty Central is of, by, and for grassroots activists. Our agenda is set by a network of citizens across the country, with our National Coordinator, Lynne Holicky, and Citizen Leaders Council President, Billie Tucker, providing a daily conduit for the vision and needs of citizen activists.
Liberty Central's President, Gary Aldrich spent nearly two years on Capitol Hill and five years in the White House. He cannot be intimidated or rolled by the so-called high and mighty political class.
He has seen it all, and he still prefers his liberty – and he only associates with others who believe the same way.
Liberty Central goes over, under, and around political establishment to reach our goals which are the same goals of the majority of the newly established Tea Party Movement.
We have always been conservatives – have never wavered in our positions – and never will. If asked to describe Liberty Central, we would say in two words or less, "absolutely independent."
In summary, what makes us different from other Tea Party-styled associations:
- We have not been elected, we will never run for office, and we have always managed to get along well with others.
- We never air our disagreements in public, nor do we attack our friends for their shortcomings or human failures. All are welcome but must behave in a civil manner.
- The Constitution offers the tools we need to fix what is broken with America.
- We are battle-tested and ready and you can always count on our love of country and our honest, ethical approach to problem solving.
Values Statement:
Liberty Central is led by a principled and dedicated team that actively listens to others and creatively shares our passion for Liberty. We operate in a fun-loving environment that produces informative, inspirational, responsive, and timely resources to make a positive impact in our country. While we are non-partisan, we are constitutionally-minded and will always refer to this Values Statement while working with and for each other.
Gary Aldrich, President & CEO
In the course of his 26 year career with the FBI, Special Agent Gary Aldrich accepted a post at the White House during the administration of President George H.W. Bush on matters related to National Security and regarding the backgrounds on political appointees and White House officials. Mr. Aldrich retired from the FBI during the first term of President Bill Clinton.
In stark contrast with the impeccably clean records of the Bush staff and appointees, those of the Clinton Administration were devious and obfuscating. In many cases Mr. Aldrich met a blithe attitude to serious allegations of wrongdoing that would have sunk a Bush candidate. Discoveries of drug abuse, criminal activity, and disregard for National Security became common when vetting a candidate—and the administration did not seem to care.
Mr. Aldrich became increasingly concerned with what he witnessed. Unable to gain security clearance without meeting well established investigation standards, Clinton employees flouted authority by carelessly moving into restricted areas and viewing classified documents without security clearance.
Additionally, the moral fiber of this great symbol of American patriotism and honor was impugned with a callus, post-modern approach to etiquette practiced by First Lady and "co-president" Hillary Rodham Clinton (with the greatest example being the now storied pornographic Blue Room Christmas tree decorated for the sake of high art).
Mr. Aldrich could not let these threats to national security and attacks on basic American values continue. Very few were willing to make a stand and call the Clintons to task on their debauched and dangerous moral transgressions, so he decided to end his career in law enforcement and expose the truth. He authored Unlimited Access – An FBI Agent Inside the Clinton White House. The book was a well-reasoned indictment of the Clinton Administration centralized around his argument that the lax attention given to ethics and morals was creating possible catastrophic breaches of national security, as well as setting the scene for a world-wide embarrassment.
The book soon entered the New York Times' bestsellers list at #1, and has since been credited as one of the forerunners of the provocative trend in popular conservative books on national affairs. But this success did little to blunt the harsh sting of scorn and criticism that was to be heaped upon Mr. Aldrich. His livelihood, his family's security, his hard-earned good reputation, and his very life were put on the line on a daily basis in the face of a vociferous maelstrom from the Hard Left who wished to keep the truth about the Clintons, and their real agenda under wraps.
Mr. Aldrich was able to weather the storm all the stronger though, and went on to release both a political novel, Speak No Evil, and another book of essays, Thunder on the Left, which outlined the Hard Left's systematically co-option of a political party. He was left in a fortunate position of credibility and respectability in the conservative movement.
With firsthand knowledge of the hardship facing those who dare speak the truth in the face of corrupt power, Mr. Aldrich became determined to make a difference by helping others. Thus was conceived a non-profit foundation to assist whistleblowers and to protect their first amendment rights.
Citizen Leadership Council
The Citizen Leadership Council assists American patriots who are seeking knowledge of the core founding principles and supports their passion for preserving freedom and liberty. State representatives facilitate grassroot organizations and collaborate efforts to define both National and Statewide concerns, creating a valuable place where all citizens can become active participants in their citizenship.
Internship Program
The Liberty Central Internship Program will provide participants with the opportunity to work substantively with a team of dedicated staff members committed to citizen activism. Interns will work with the staff to research, market and update the website to provide everyday citizens across the country with a means to get involved. The intensive work load, job experience and technical skills will equip interns for a future career in politics.
Like many non-profit organizations, Liberty Central, Inc respects the wishes of its donors to keep their identities confidential. Our policy is in full compliance with the "Donor's Bill of Rights" developed by the National Society of Fund Raising Executives, the American Association of Fund Raising Counsel, the Association of Healthcare Philanthropy and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education. Among its tenets is the promise that donations will be "handled with respect and with confidentiality to the extent provided by law."

I kept going back and forth on whether or not to order this ring. I have always wanted a black diamond solitaire! They are so unique and classy looking; something different than the same run-of-the-mill white diamond. Well, when I showed it to my husband, he must have really loved it, because he ordered it for me! I was so thrilled when I saw it! The black diamond has unbelievable sparkle! It is just breathtaking! The pave diamonds are gorgeous and they are everywhere, including the prongs! This ring is such a unique piece, don't hesitate to buy!!!!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this ring the shape the really thin band with the halo and the tiny diamonds going up the prongs. I have personally never liked thick bands and this ring is my personality in ring form lol. The one and only problem I have with my ring is that there are just to many inclusions for my liking. I have read that this was normal and even spoken with an Overstock representative who said it was normal but I have a friend who got a black diamond ring from zales and her black diamond has the inclusions but no where near as noticable. I am waiting for a representative from the jewlery department to contact me to see if I can return this one and have one sent with much less of them. I have read the other reviews and some of you have said you saw them in yours and others of you have said you didn't notice anything wrong with your black diamond. I am hoping I can resolve the matter. This same exact ring is also at zales for 100 dollars more and like I said the zales rings have the normal inclusions too just less noticable. So if I can't get a ring from here with less inclusions I may consider trying zales. I really hope a representative on here gets back to me though. This is truely a BEAUTIFUL ring.
I was very pleased when I received this ring as an alternate wedding ring. The band is very dainty and gives a gorgeous backdrop to the stunning black diamond. You hardly feel it on your finger, and small white diamonds run everywhere (even up the prongs holding the black solitaire). I am in love, had this for over 4 months and can't believe I hadn't written a review yet. I hardly wear my original engagement ring at all anymore... I will be getting a black diamond eternity band to compliment the white diamond eternity band I currently wear with this. There are a few flaws, but that is to be expected with the price. the only drawback, which really isn't one is that the black diamond shows any smudge, fingerprint, etc., very easily but can be just wiped off with a soft blouse or whatever you're wearing. I had this appraised the day I received it and was told it was worth much, much more than what I paid. Another VERY satisfied customer. Thanks O.co.
I have been looking at this ring for months, after much hinting to my hubby, we ordered this as a 10 year anniversary present. The ring was delivered fast (4 Days.) But when I opend the ring i was Sooooooo disappointed. I didnt expect a clear diamond, I understand for this kind of money, its not going to be clear and colorless, I expected inclusions. I didnt expect a crack on the side, and just a raw unpolished diamond on the side. I have since sent the ring back, I was told it would be aleast 9 business days before the new one would be sent. I read all the reviews, I did my research, I think I just got a lemon, as soon as I get the new one, I'll post a review again. The ring is beautiful, The band is super thin, even smaller than the picture looks. I paired the ring with a 1/2 black diamond anniversary band, that I got on here as well.
After reading many reviews and considering this for several days, I made the purchase. The ring shipped SUPER FAST and I was thrilled when I received it. Really attractive, but not too gaudy...just the right amount of sizzle! I have had many compliments and more importantly, I feel that it's comfortable and easy to wear and a really pretty piece of jewelry (even for every day wear).
I am so OVERWHELMINGLY in love with my engagement ring!!! It's a stunning timeless piece!! If you are on the fence about the ring quality or anything please please PLEASE go for it!!! She will not be disappointed. I promise! So much bang for the buck!
The ring looks great, however had more inclusions than my wife liked. In addition, it was constantly moving sideways on her so was clearly to large. We are exchanging it for the next smaller size and are hoping this new one has less inclusions.
My girlfriend really loved the ring. I have seen previous posts about how the stone was not of good quality but ours was. The band is thin so there has to be some caution taken but other than that the size and color of the diamond was wonderful.
This ring is beautiful! The diamond is perfect and a really nice size. The band is very nice also and makes the whole ring very classy, I was extremely impressed with the quality. It looks nicer than the price would indicate.
This ring was even better then shown in the photos online. The setting is perfect. The height of the setting is perfect for showing off a black diamond properly. The black diamond is good quality as well. I chose this ring as my engagement ring back in late 2011. It was exactly what I invisioned. I also found a beautiful wedding band to match as well on Overstock.com. You truly get wthat you pay for and then some with the jewerly on here. Will be buying again from Overstock!!

This is my first Wisped Away. I have nine other PY's in various styles. This one is very easy to style. I plan to order two more. Great wig.
Just right for a summer do!

Size seems to be smaller than "average" to me-looks a little like a hat. I have to keep tugging on it so it will stay in place.
This is the 4th Wisped wig I have.
By Nonna
from Mineola, NY
Since I lost my hair, I have used many styles but many are too hot in the heat. I have this to be the lightest, comfortable & attractive. Thanks

I put it on firtst thing in the morning. My husband paid me compliments about this wig. Everyone that sees me, says they love the style, and that it looks so natural. Any wig is a little hot in the summer, but well worth it to look nice.

I wear my wig everyday and get many compliments. It is comfortable and easy to care for. It looks so natural a professional hair stylist asked me who did my hair! Need I say more?!~

Angus T. Jones, who plays Jake Harper, on CBS's hit show Two and a Half Men will not be returning as a regular character next season.
Maybe it has something to do with this:
Replacing him will be a girl who shows up claiming to be the long lost daughter of the deceased Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen's former character). She'll move in with Walden (Ashton Kutcher) and Alan (Jon Cryer).
Another big change to the show and the loss of another original character may make some people nervous, but the writers and producers have faith that the fans will stick with the comedy.
What do you think? Will the show survive?

By myFOXDetroit.com staff
DETROIT (WJBK) -- Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette has been dealt a setback in his attempt to have seven members of the Detroit Board of Education removed from their positions. Schuette argued in court last month that the board members are holding office illegally because they were voted in by district and not at-large. State law requires school board members in communities with fewer than 100,000 students to be elected at-large.
But in a ruling just released Wayne County Circuit Judge John Gillis dismissed Schuette's lawsuit challenging the elections which allows the members to remain on the board.
Detroit School Board attorney George Washington received the order on Thursday and said in a release, "We are glad that this lawsuit has been exposed as the bogus claim that it always was." So far there has been no comment from Schuette's office but last month FOX 2 legal analyst Charlie Langton spoke with the Attorney General who said he was willing and ready to take his fight all the way to the Supreme Court if necessary.
