We work hard at Southwest Airlines, making sure our Customers are entertained and continue to come back to Southwest for all of their traveling needs. We want to make sure that our Customers are continually impressed by the lengths we go to make them feel appreciated and LUVed.
With that being said, I would like it to be known to the entire blogosphere that the one and only Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty flew on our Red Bellied Beauties in celebration of Independence Day.
It was no easy task, making sure that our flights would fit into the busy schedules of Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty. But we soon found out that Lady Liberty is a Rapid Rewards Member; she is a loyal Southwest Customer. Lady Liberty has been known to frequent the Baltimore/Washington Airport!
I had the honor of escorting Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty throughout the airport and on the aircraft during their Freedom Tour. Customers received patriotic ribbons and flags, played trivia on the plane to win prizes, and were given the opportunity to take pictures with Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty!
This goes to show, you never know what (or who!) you may encounter when flying our Fun-LUVing airline. We will continue to go above and beyond to celebrate the holiday with our Customers—with our Family.

Polis (/ˈpɒlɨs/; πόλις, Ancient Greek: [pólis]), plural poleis (/ˈpɒleɪz/, πόλεις [póleːs]), literally means city in Greek. It could also mean citizenship and body of citizens. In modern historiography "polis" is normally used to indicate the ancient Greek city-states, like Classical Athens and its contemporaries, so polis is often translated as "city-state".
Ancient Greek city-states, which developed during the Archaic period, the ancestor of city, state and citizenship, and persisted (though with decreasing influence) well into Roman times, when the equivalent Latin word was civitas, also meaning "citizenhood", while municipium applied to a non-sovereign local entity. The term city-state which originated in English (alongside the German Stadtstaat) does not fully translate the Greek term. The poleis were not like other primordial ancient city-states like Tyre or Sidon, which were ruled by a king or a small oligarchy, but rather a political entity ruled by its body of citizens. The traditional view of archaeologists, that the appearance of urbanization at excavation sites could be read as a sufficient index for the development of a polis was criticised by François Polignac in 1984[1][a] and has not been taken for granted in recent decades: the polis of Sparta for example was established in a network of villages. The term polis, which in archaic Greece meant city, changed with the development of the governance center in the city to indicate state (which included its surrounding villages), and finally with the emergence of a citizenship notion between the land owners it came to describe the entire body of citizens. The ancient Greeks did not always refer to Athens, Sparta, Thebes, and other poleis as such; they often spoke instead of the Athenians, Lacedaemonians, Thebans and so on. The body of citizens came to be the most important meaning of the term polis in ancient Greece as a polis.
The Greek term which specifically meant the totality of urban buildings and spaces is ἄστυ (pronounced [ásty]).
The polis in Ancient Greek philosophy[edit]
Plato analyses the polis in The Republic, whose Greek title Πολιτεία (Politeia) itself derives from the word polis. The best form of government of the polis for Plato is the one that leads to the common good. The philosopher king is the best ruler because, as a philosopher, he is acquainted with the Form of the Good. In Plato's analogy of the ship of state, the philosopher king steers the polis, as if it were a ship, in the best direction.
Books II-IV of The Republic are concerned with Plato addressing the make-up of an ideal Polis. In The Republic, Socrates is concerned with the two underlying principles of any society. It states these two underlying principles are mutual needs and differences in aptitude. Starting from these two principles, Socrates deals with the economic structure of an ideal Polis. According to Plato, there are five main economic classes of any Polis which are, producers, merchants, sailors/ship-owners, retail traders, and wage earners. Along with the two principles and five economic classes, there are four virtues. The four virtues of a, "just city" include, wisdom, change, moderation, and justice. With all of these principles, classes, and virtues, it was believed that a "just city" (Polis) would exist.

Archaic and classical polis[edit]
Basic and indicating elements are:
- Self-governance, autonomy and independence (city-state)
- Agora: the social hub and financial marketplace, on and around a centrally located large open space
- Acropolis: the citadel, inside which a temple had replaced the erstwhile Mycenaean anáktoron (palace) or mégaron (hall)
- Greek urban planning and architecture, public, religious, and private (see Hippodamian plan)
- Temples, altars and sacred precincts: one or more are dedicated to the poliouchos, the patron deity of the city; each polis kept its own particular festivals and customs (Political religion, as opposed to the individualized religion of the later antiquity). Priests and priestesses, although often drawn from certain families by tradition, did not form a separate collegiality or class: they were ordinary citizens who, on certain occasions, were called to perform certain functions.
- Gymnasia
- Theatres
- Walls: used for protection from invaders
- Coins: minted by the city, and bearing its symbols
- Colonies being founded by the oikistes of the metropolis
- Political life: it revolved around the sovereign Ekklesia (the assembly of all adult male citizens for deliberation and voting), the standing boule and other civic or judicial councils, the archons and other officials or magistrates elected either by vote or by lot, clubs, etc., and sometimes punctuated by stasis (civil strife between parties, factions or socioeconomic classes, e.g., aristocrats, oligarchs, democrats, tyrants, the wealthy, the poor, large, or small landowners, etc.) They practised direct democracy.
- Publication of state functions: laws, decrees and major fiscal accounts were published, and criminal and civil trials were also held in public
- Synoecism, conurbation: Absorption of nearby villages and countryside, and the incorporation of their tribes into the substructure of the polis. Many of a polis' citizens would have lived in the suburbs or countryside. The Greeks did not regard the polis as a territorial grouping so much as a religious and political association: while the polis would control territory and colonies beyond the city itself, the polis would not simply consist of a geographical area. Most cities were composed of several tribes or phylai, which were in turn composed of phratries (common-ancestry lineages), and finally génea (extended families)
- Social classes and citizenship: Dwellers in the polis were generally divided into four types of inhabitants, with status typically determined by birth:
- Citizens with full legal and political rights, i.e., free adult men born legitimately of citizen parents. They had the right to vote, be elected into office, bear arms, and the obligation to serve when at war.
- Citizens without formal political rights, but full legal rights: the citizens' female relatives and underage children, whose political rights and interests were represented, and property held in trust, by their adult male relatives.
- Citizens of other poleis who chose to reside elsewhere (the metics, μέτοικοι, métoikoi, literally "transdwellers"): though free-born and possessing full rights in their place of origin, had full legal rights but no political rights in their place of residence. Metics could not vote, could not be elected to office, could not bear arms and could not serve in war. They otherwise had full personal and property rights, albeit subject to taxation.
- Slaves: chattel in full possession of their owner, and with no privileges other what their owner would grant (or revoke) at will.
Hellenistic and Roman[edit]
During the Hellenistic period, which marks the decline of the classical polis, the following cities remained independent: Sparta until 195 BC after the War against Nabis. Achaean League is the last example of original Greek city-state federations (dissolved after the Battle of Corinth (146 BC)). The Cretan city-states continue to be independent (except Itanus and Arsinoe, which lay under Ptolemaic influence) until the conquest of Crete in 69 BC by Rome. The cities of Magna Graecia, with the notable examples of Syracuse and Tarentum, were conquered by Rome in late 3rd century BC. There are also some cities with recurring independence like Samos, Priene, Miletus, and Athens.[2] A remarkable example of a city-state which flourished during this era is Rhodes through its merchant navy,[3] until 43 BC and the Roman conquest.
The Hellenistic colonies and cities of the era, retain some basic characteristics of a polis, except: the status of independence (city-state) and the political life. There is a self-governance (like the new Macedonian title politarch) but under a ruler and king. The political life of the classical era is now transformed to an individualized religious and philosophical view of life (see Hellenistic philosophy and religion) The demographic decline forced the cities to abolish the status of metic and bestow citizenship; in 228 BC Miletus enfranchised over 1000 Cretans.[4] Dyme sold its citizenship for one talent, payable in two installments. The foreign residents in a city are now called paroikoi. In an age when most political establishments in Asia are kingdoms, the Chrysaorian League in Caria was a Hellenistic polis federation.
During the Roman era, some cities were granted the status of a polis, free city, self-governed under the Roman Empire.[5] The last institution commemorating the old Greek poleis was the Panhellenion established by Hadrian.

Located on the north-west coast of Cyprus is the town of Polis, or Polis Chrysochous (Greek: Πόλις Χρυσοχούς), situated within the Paphos District and on the edge of the Akamas peninsula. During the Cypro-Classical period, Polis became one of the most important ancient Cypriot city-kingdoms on the island, with important commercial relations with the eastern Aegean Islands, Attica, and Corinth. The town is also well known due to its mythological history, including the site of the "Baths of Aphrodite".

- Manchester. United Kingdom, nicknamed Cottonopolis during the 19th century due to its status as a major industrial centre for cotton spinning.
- Middlesbrough United Kingdom, was known as Ironopolis during Victorian times because of the area's production of pig iron.

The (Easton) Express ( http://bit.ly/VovMHD) says 19-year-old Manuel Figueroa of Allentown was convicted Friday of third-degree murder and reckless endangerment.
Prosecutors had vowed to seek the death penalty if jurors had convicted him of first-degree murder in the September 2011 murder of 19-year-old Daniel Velez, who police said was shot as he was parking on an Allentown street.
Defense attorney Glennis Clark called the verdict fair and said his client was happy "though of course sad that someone lost his life." Chief Deputy District Attorney Jay Jenkins said he respected the jury's verdict.
Officials said Figueroa faces 21 to 42 years when he is sentenced April 15.

I have three mechanisms for sorting 1) First Name 2) Last Name 3)
Created Date Currently, I am doing query for each type of sorting. That means I am hitting database 3 times. I want to do like this it will hit database at only first time and after that I will sort that array of object depending on the sorting user selected, on view itself. Is it possible? If yes please tell me. I am tried this but I am not able to do that. After that I done like this, Whenever user select sorting then I am giving an Ajax call. Going to controller with that array of objects and then tried to sort that array by using array sort method. But problem is that I am getting that array as a string from URL and the scope of object is lost. Anyone please tell me how to solve this problem?
Thanks & Regards, Tushar
If you want to sort in the view itself, then it would make sense to use JavaScript itself rather than AJAX calls to sort your list. Unless of course that isn't realistically possible due to pagination and/or you've got too many records. In which case i'd just send an AJAX call back to the server to grab the records again in the correct order.
Sounds odd that you are querying the database 3 times (in a row?)...

Tamika Catchings, Victor Cruz, Mark Herzlich, Keyshawn Johnson, Dikembe Mutombo, Sanya Richards-Ross, CC Sabathia, Bill Walton and Michelle Wie Share Personal Stories of Success
NEW YORK, Feb. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- On February 6, 2014, the mobile app and interactive website GamePlan4Me.com will launch with videos of top American athletes telling their own stories of success. In an effort to bring awareness to the importance of planning for the future, the athletes share their personal experiences about how having a game plan helped them achieve their goals in competition, their careers, personal lives and health. Champions who have brought their locker room strategy to the website include: Tamika Catchings, Victor Cruz, Mark Herzlich, Keyshawn Johnson, Dikembe Mutombo, Sanya Richards-Ross, CC Sabathia, Bill Walton and Michelle Wie. Additional high profile athlete videos and messages will be added to the effort each week.
George Pyne, business leader and entrepreneur, David Kristal, founder and chief executive officer of Augeo, and Juan Sabater, Latino entrepreneur, are leading the private initiative and collaboration among top athletes, sports executives and industry leaders with the goal of creating a non-political and engaging experience that will help visitors as they make decisions about their life and health.
"Taking personal responsibility for one's actions is a goal that GamePlan4Me hopes to instill in visitors to this site. To hear Mark Herzlich talk about overcoming cancer, or Keyshawn Johnson explain that as a young man 'he was going to be successful no matter what' can give people the courage to stay focused and move forward," stated George Pyne. "The athletes who have given their time to be involved in this initiative understand how hard work and planning have made a significant difference in their lives."
In addition to a growing number of stories from top athletes, GamePlan4Me also includes interactive games, facts on health topics and links to informational sites.
"GamePlan4Me was conceived and created by a talented team of professionals who want to stimulate people to think about their health and well-being," commented David Kristal. "Encouraging young Latinos to understand healthcare options is vital to the continued success of our community," added Juan Sabater. Kristal continued, "We hope to encourage young people to plan for what they know today and prepare for what they cannot predict tomorrow. If young Americans learn about and take responsibility for their health related options, we all win."

Lindenwood Park bridge receiving faceliftFargo, ND (WDAY TV) - You should soon be able to cross the river on a new bridge in Lindenwood Park.
By: WDAY Staff Reports, WDAY Staff Reports, WDAY
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) - You should soon be able to cross the river on a new bridge in Lindenwood Park.
The bridge contractor now has the new bridge in place and the old one is on its way out. It could be a few days before the new wench and lift system arrives.
Crews are getting the approaches ready to each side of the bridge, so walkers can use it. Once the lift work begins, the new bridge will be closed briefly.
Dave Leeker, Fargo Parks: "The big thing will be the ease of putting it down, because once we lift it up in March, we can't put it down until May because of road restriction and cranes, but now if the flood comes we will leave it in place and lift it up and be ready to go."
The $1 million project should be wrapped up sometime in December.

Bathroom Makeover
My bathroom desperately needed a makeover to make it more modern looking. I was tired of staring at the same old look for the past 12 years. This project was done on a budget with new paint and new hardware.
The wall was painted a light grey color. All the old light fixtures, towel rack, and cabinet doors were removed using my Ryobi cordless drill. The cabinets and mirror frame were painted a semi gloss black. An updated light fixture was installed. New cabinet handles were added. The total time spent was about 5 days including time watching the paint dry.
I am happy with the result for a budget project.

Nike Free Run 2 TrainersColour: Black/Orange/White. Upper: Textile. Sock and inner: Textile. Sole: Other.
Nike Flyknit Lunar 2 Mens Running Shoes – Black/White/Grey
Nike's Flyknit was inspired by feedback by runners who required a shoe with the fit of a sock. Embarking on a four-year mission, Nike worked to create the technology needed to make a knit upper with static properties for structure and durability. The result was an impossibly light, yet incredibly strong running shoe.
The Flyknit construction provides essential breathability and features lightweight zones of support, with stretch Flywire cables wrapping round the medical arch. These lightweight cables work with the Dynamic Fit system and are customisable through the laces.
Made entirely of polyester yarn, it's a one-piece layer with an integrated knit tongue for enhanced comfort. They're openly woven in areas that need greater flexibility and tight in areas that require more support.
With Lunarlon support providing a soft yet responsive ride, these trainers feature a resilient foam core for a springy response and plush feel, allowing the force of impact to be more evenly distributed and reducing the painful pressure points on your foot.
Other features such as the Fitsole sockliner conforms to the foot for support, whilst the pull on heel tab ensures they're easy to get on and off. To finish, the innovative outsole delivers increased flexibility with the green rubber and BRS 1000.
Useful info:
- Mens running shoes by Nike
- Flyknit Lunar 2
- Lightweight construction
- Flywire for secure midfoot fit
- Lightweight lunarlon cushioning
- Swoosh to side
- Woven tab to tongue
- Pull on tab to back

I've had a 1st gen iPhone on T-Mobile (USA) since it was possible. Three weeks ago, I got my girlfriend a 3G. Thanks to BL 5.09, I got a Gevey SIM solution to make it work until a better solution comes along.
Today, she had problems connecting on EDGE, so she decided to restart it. After a soft "slide to power off", it hung on the spinning wheel. So after a bit, she held the buttons for a hard reset. It powered off.
Since then, it will not come back on. The computer will not detect it. I pulled the SIM and (SIM device) out, and it still won't power on.
What am I missing? If we can make it power up, I'm sure it can be restored if need be, or whatever. The only thing that has changed within the last week is that last night I installed BossPrefs.
Help me please, Hackintosh, you've never failed me yet.

Vendetta Online is a multi-platform 3D space-combat MMO for Windows, Mac, Linux/32 and Linux/64. The game permits players to interact in a vast online galaxy; fighting, trading, and mining their way to success. A "twitch" type real-time combat model makes true player skill the deciding factor instead of character advancement. Massive capital-ship battles shake the foundations of the major nations at war, while others struggle to push back the encroachment of the AI "Hives". A no-strings free trial is available.
"The Game" is a project designed to simplify the process of producing any high-quality cross-platform 2D or 3D graphical computer game. The hope is that any game can be produced simply by changing a few settings and pressing a "compile" button. The project has three "deliverables": a game engine library to abstract across the set of all possible computer games (applying object-oriented design methods to the general problem in such a way as to be usable in specific instances); a graphical interface for easy game design (an exercise in human interface design); and a gaming package with a lot of shiny games to play.
Paratim (Paratrooper Improved) is a remake of the old DOS game Paratrooper. The player plays with the gun in the bottom center of the game while helicopters fly overhead. Those helicopters sometimes drop paratroopers. When their are four or more paratroopers on one side of the gun, the game is lost. To prevent this, the player has to shoot the paratroopers while they fall or shoot the helicopters. After a round of helicopters, planes arrive that drop bombs aimed at the gun. If a bomb hits the gun, the game is also lost. To prevent this, the player has to shoot the bomb or the airplanes.
Tux Strikes Back is a level set (new world) for SuperTux 0.1.3, the popular open source jump'n run game which is available for many different platforms. This set comes with 18 new levels and its own world map and story. An installation of SuperTux 0.1.3 (Milestone 1) is required.
Star Defender 4 is a space shooter that still has all the best features of the Star Defender series. Face tons of new enemies with unique styles of behavior and new ways of attacking. Use new Star Defender 4 weapons (machine gun, saw, flame thrower, acid bomb, and cutter) as well as the best weapons from the previous game (parasitron, lasers, infector, ball lightning, missiles, homing laser, and barriers) Blast through more than 100 levels, 8 original missions, and of course huge impressive bosses at the end of every mission.
Galcon Fusion is a high-paced, multi-player, galactic, arcade-strategy game in which you send swarms of ships to defeat enemy planets and conquer the universe. It features beautiful HD graphics, a full-length interactive soundtrack, achievements and detailed rankings, a variety of games including Stealth and Assassin, a retro mode, and colorblind support for up to 4 players. It supports multi-player, team games, and solo missions.
C-Dogs SDL is a port of the old DOS arcade game C-Dogs to modern operating systems. C-Dogs is an arcade shoot-em-up which lets players work alone or co-operativly during missions, and against each other in the "dogfight" deathmatch mode. The original DOS version of C-Dogs came with several built in missions and dogfight maps, and this version is no exception. The author of the DOS version of C-Dogs is Ronny Wester.

Delish has been around for years, but I only stopped by there recently. Their flavors aren't crazy -- BEER BATTER CARAMEL ICING WITH COCONUT FLAKES! -- but demure and classy. I ordered the craziest thing on the menu, Banana Chocolate, and found the cake lusciously moist, the chocolate with a nice bitter edge to it. Golf claps, Delish.
Best cakes I have ever had!
Fabulous homemade baked goods! – I absolutely love Delish Gourmet Bakery & Cupcake Shop! As a baker myself, I am pretty hard to impress when it comes to baked goods, but Delish always pleases and impresses everytime...
Keep up the awesome work Alissa and crew! I'm glad you guys are close by and fabulous!

My sister gave one to me as a birthday gift back in 88. Since then I never looked back. I always buy a bottle when ever I am out of the country. It is my signature fragrance, my wife and my peers can attest to that. It is rather sad to note that it is very hard to find one here in Manila, Philippines, considering the kind of rave reviews it possesses.

Hypnotic, cadenced sounds from the bellows of the pressurized iron lung was forcing my lungs and diaphragm to expand and contract. It inhaled the breath of life and exhaled the fear of the unknown. It was in some kind of musical rhythm with the ceiling fan above my head, circulating the aroma of freshly baked bread, cookies and apple pie. I knew it had to be close to Christmas.
The last thing I remembered was the spinal tap. They told me not to move or raise my head after they were finished, but what did they know. I was a strong, indestructible and healthy 12-year-old, I could do whatever I wanted to do. Now, here I am with tubes down my throat, IV's in my arms and completely paralyzed. I could blink my eyes, wiggle my ears, talk and smile- that was it. What a shock!
Christmas day arrived on time and all the rooms in the polio hospital were overflowing with gifts, Visitors weaved their way into all the rooms, visiting children they knew and giving presents to families they didn't even know. Needless to say, my parents were still in shock. Seeing their only adopted son on what they thought was his death bed was something they couldn't overcome.
Over the grinding sound of the life giving bellows, I kept assuring them I would survive, not to worry and that everything would be fine. Being the eternal optimist, I still felt I was indestructible. Almost seven decades later, I still have that positive attitude about life.
At high school age, I realized we always live in the "now." As I began feeling the weight of aging; I realized I also live in memories of the past, or the "then," begging the question: is there a future? After all; if our life is a composite of our now and then, how can there be a future beyond then? Just a thought.
The older and less active I become, the more I think about the good and bad memories of my past. Not to the point of being melancholy or sad but as reminders of where I came from and how I landed in this collective dimension of time and space.
Every Christmas, I create new memories with family, friends and the ones I love. I reflect on my experiences in life and give thanks for my journey from the confines of the iron lung to the inconvenience of old age.
I don't know about my future; but I do know everything will be fine. And, that I'll always be grateful for every now and then I will experience in my life.
