In February, 1844, Ralph Waldo Emerson rhapsodized about young America, "the country of the Future," as "a country of beginnings, of projects, of vast designs and expectations." That May, Samuel F. B. Morse telegraphed the message "What hath God wrought," from Washington to Baltimore, overthrowing, in one electric instant, the "tyranny of distance." The next month, a railroad from Boston reached Emerson's home town of Concord, Massachusetts. Less than a year later, in the spring of 1845, by which time the Boston railroad had snaked its way to Fitchburg, forty miles west, and telegraph wires had begun to stretch across the continent like so many Lilliputian ropes over Gulliver, Emerson's eccentric friend, the twenty-seven-year-old Henry David Thoreau, dug a cellar at the site of a woodchuck's burrow on a patch of land Emerson owned, on Walden Pond, about a mile and a half outside town. (Thoreau had lived in Emerson's house, as his handyman.) He borrowed an axe, and hewed framing timbers out of white pine. "We boast that we belong to the Nineteenth Century and are making the most rapid strides of any nation," Thoreau later wrote, from the ten-by-fifteen-foot cabin he built over that cellar, at a cost of twenty-eight dollars and twelve and a half cents. He used the boards from an old shanty for siding. He mixed his own plaster, from lime (two dollars and forty cents: "that was high") and horsehair (thirty-one cents: "more than I needed"). He moved in on the Fourth of July, 1845. Before winter, he built a chimney from secondhand bricks, and reckoned it an improvement, but he didn't think the same could be said for the nation's "rapid strides" and "vast designs." The telegraph? "We are in great haste to construct a magnetic telegraph from Maine to Texas; but Maine and Texas, it may be, have nothing important to communicate." The postal system? "I never received more than one or two letters in my life . . . that were worth the postage." The nation's much vaunted network of newspapers? "We are a race of tit-men, and soar but little higher in our intellectual flights than the columns of the daily paper." Banks and railroads? "Men have an indistinct notion that if they keep up this activity of joint stocks and spades long enough all will at length ride somewhere, in next to no time, and for nothing; but though a crowd rushes to the depot, and the conductor shouts 'All aboard!' when the smoke is blown away and the vapor condensed, it will be perceived that a few are riding, but the rest are run over."
Daniel Walker Howe's ambitious new book, "What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815-1848" (Oxford; $35), chronicles every development that Thoreau despised, many that he admired, and a great deal about which the man in Walden's woods cared not one whit. Between 1815 and 1848, the United States chased its Manifest Destiny all the way to the Pacific; battled Mexico; built thousands of miles of canals, railroads, and telegraph lines; embraced universal white-male suffrage and popular democracy; forced Indians from the South and carried slavery to the West; awaited the millennium, reformed its manners, created a middle class, launched women's rights, and founded its own literature. "What Hath God Wrought" is both a capacious narrative of a tumultuous era in American history and a heroic attempt at synthesizing a century and a half of historical writing about Jacksonian democracy, antebellum reform, and American expansion.
Howe's book is the most recent installment in the prestigious Oxford History of the United States. This would not be worth mentioning except that the book that was initially commissioned to cover this period, Charles Sellers's "The Market Revolution: Jacksonian America, 1815-1846," was rejected by the series editor, the late, distinguished historian C. Vann Woodward, and it is Sellers against whom Howe argues, if with a kind of gentlemanly diffidence. (Oxford did publish Sellers's book, in 1991, just not as part of the series.) Sellers, a historian at Berkeley, claimed that the greatest transformation of the first half of the nineteenth century—indeed, the defining event in American and even in world history—was no mere transformation but a revolution, from an agrarian to a capitalist society. "Establishing capitalist hegemony over economy, politics, and culture, the market revolution created ourselves and most of the world we know," Sellers wrote.
Sellers's energetic, brilliant, and strident book may not have reached readers outside the academy—perhaps Woodward anticipated this—but among scholars it enjoyed a huge influence, not least because "The Market Revolution" was published just after many of the nation's best historians had written essays sounding urgent calls for synthesis in American historical writing. During the nineteen-sixties and seventies, historians had produced longer and longer monographs on smaller and smaller subjects. A decade in the life of a town. A year in the life of a family. Dazzling studies, many of them, but pieces of a puzzle that no one had been able to put together. "The great proliferation of historical writing has served not to illuminate the central themes of Western history but to obscure them," Bernard Bailyn complained, in 1981, in his presidential address to the American Historical Association. There followed similar, heartfelt laments by Eric Foner ("History in Crisis"), Herbert G. Gutman ("The Missing Synthesis"), and Thomas Bender ("Making History Whole Again"). Sellers's paradigm seemed to offer an answer; he had dumped all the pieces out of the box, and put them together, joining decades of meticulous empirical research about Western farmers, Eastern bankers, Southern slaves, artisans, immigrants, politicians, everyone.

The Optimized Cable Company Difference:
Optimized Cable Company's cables are specially designed for hi-def video and audio signals for professional and home theater installations, using 1080p, 1080i, 720p and 480p. All of our cables are made using high quality cabling, shielding and jacket material. We use gold plating for increased connectivity, longevity and signal strength.
Why Gold Plated Connectors?
Many people wonder if they need Gold Plated connectors. Gold Plated connectors resist corrosion 100 times better then non-gold plated connectors. Many home theater applications require cables to be run through walls, fireplace chases and other moisture rich areas. Using Gold Plated connectors ensures that you will not have future corrosion problems that may result in signal loss.
Do I need a super thick or fancy looking cable?
As you may have noticed, some cables sold at electronic retail stores are twice as thick as a standard DVI or HDMI cable. This is done to make the cable appear to be "more high quality." Because the cable jacket is much thicker, buyers often think that the signal may be better and spend three times as much money. The fact is, a thicker cable jacket does not produce a better signal. In fact, professional installers shy away from those cables. Those fancy retail store cables are much more difficult to connect, run through walls and conceal behind hanging Plasma and LCD monitors. Many of those retail store cables also have snake-style or soft fancy covers that look really expensive. Those cables do not fare well inside moisture rich wall chases in homes. The best cable you can purchase is the one that is totally encased in a PVC style jacket to keep it completely protected from moisture and cold. This style of cable will last the longest and provide the best signal. The last thing you want to do is rip into your walls to replace a corroded cable a few years down the line.
More info about HDMI:
HDMI is the most recent break-through in high-definition, transmitting your Blu-Ray and HDTV audio and video content through a single high-speed cable. HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. The developers of HDMI are electronics manufacturers and media distributors like Sony, Toshiba, Panasonic, Philips, Hitachi and others, forming the HDMI Consortium.
At Optimized Cable Company, we specialize in state-of-the-art home theater cables and accessories for hi-def plasma and LCD monitors, HD Blu-Ray and DVD players, stereo receivers, projectors and more. Our HDMI cables are tested and certified, meeting all Consortium-required specs.
Every cable we sell has our unconditional lifetime warranty. High-tech commercial installers use our cables because we offer a great product line at a fair price. There are no hidden handling fees or shipping charges. The price you see is the price you pay. And we ship fast.
Our HDMI cables boast a PVC-style category 2 cable jacket, 19-pin high-purity copper conductors, gold-plated molding, and braided-aluminum triple shielding to protect against electromagnetic interferance and cross-talk.
Our high-end, gold-plated connectors resist corrosion 100 times better than tin plated courtesy cables. When snaking cables through moisture-rich areas like fireplaces and crawl spaces, you want solid construction. Use our gold plated cables to protect against corrosion that can result in picture degradation.
HDMI is gaining popularity and availability as more manufacturers develop components and devices that support digital hi definition signals. Cable and satellite television providers are now offering their set-top equipment with HDMI output, making installation a snap. With our HDMI cables, you can transmit uncompressed, lossless, digital-only audio and video to your display.

And never forget those we've lost
7:45am Thursday 19th December 2013 in News
A SPECIAL service of remembrance was held at Pershore Cemetery's newly restored chapel on Saturday for those who have lost loved ones in the past year.
Those attending wrote about their loved ones on stars, which were hung on a Christmas Tree, and lit candles in their memory. Music was provided by the Pensham Singers and the event was followed by seasonal drinks and mince pies. It is hoped the service will become an annual fixture.

Since Bria began teaching at Sparks High in 1990 she has volunteered her time to helping various Railroader athletics. Bria's responsibilities range from running up and down the sidelines with the chain gang during football season to keeping the book for the basketball and baseball teams.
Bria's first assignment with the chain crew came by chance. Attending a football game just to watch, Bria was asked to run chains in place of someone who had to go home sick. While she did not know what she was doing, she agreed and she's been there ever since.
"I know for a fact she's been at every home football game on the sidelines since 1990, working the chains," Sparks High registrar Greg Shugar said. "She's never missed a game. Rain or shine, she's there. She's there for the kids. She's born and raised here. She went to Sparks High School. Not only with the football, but she's been our bookkeeper at Sparks High as long as I can remember, too."
The time and dedication that Bria puts in is recognized by others involved with the SHS sports programs.
"She's awesome," Sparks baseball coach Greg Vasko said. "You can't say enough about her. She's very helpful and she knows the game. She's been around the school for a long time and she helps all the different sports. She is a dedicated Sparks High athletics backer."
Sparks AD and football coach Rob Kittrell echoed the same sentiments.
"She bleeds Maroon and Gold," Kittrell said. "Janice is one of the staff members here that graduated from Sparks High School. She's one of our top caring teachers. She loves the students and the student-athletes and wants to see them succeed and see them win and have success on the field and on the court."
Bria's assistance at Railroaders' games is so strong that Kittrell said he's not sure what he would do if she were to leave.
"If Janice ever left here, I'd have to replace her with three or four people," Kittrell said. "She's the one that runs the chain crew. She's in charge of them as far as who works and who shows up. If she were to quit doing that, it would be just another job I would have to do as Athletic Director, so she's a great help to me."
Besides being a regular presence on the sidelines, Bria, an English teacher at Sparks High, is devoted to athletics beyond the Railroaders' playing fields.
"She brought back sports literature in school as an English class," Shugar said. "She's so into sports. A couple years ago she helped bring back the Block S Club, which is a varsity lettermen's club here at the school. It's open to anyone who's earned a letter with a certain GPA, but they have to be nominated by their coach. They promote Sparks High athletics both in the school and out in the community. She's been a real big part of that, bringing that back and getting those kids to work real hard.
"She puts the kids first all the time. She works tirelessly for the kids to make sure they get the best experience they can out of the school. She knows kind of what we know as coaches, that the kids that are active in their school that play sports seem to do better in the classroom and better out in the real world. She really understands that."
For Bria, the benefits of sports are part of the reason why she is involved with SHS athletics.
"I think sports are so important because it keeps them outdoors and it keeps them active," Bria said. "It's part of a healthy lifestyle. It teaches them skills for life and friendships for life. There are just so many plusses to sports. In the school, I know there are a lot of people that say there's too much emphasis placed on sports, but sports keeps kids in school. I think that's huge."
Aside from the gains that the student-athletes take from playing their particular sports, Bria also gets personal satisfaction from being at the games.
"It's fun and I love sports," Bria said. "I just love sports. I always have. I grew up with two brothers who were into sports and just got a love of sports from them. Baseball is my first love. When I was a little kid I used to always watch baseball games. Going to the games is a way for me to be involved with the sports teams. It's a good way to get to know the students in a different setting, outside the classroom, which always helps. I enjoy the camaraderie and the atmosphere of being around the games."
Getting a chance to connect with the students beyond the school setting is the best part for Bria.
"It's a much more relaxed atmosphere than the classroom and that's why you can get to know the kids better and form good friendships," Bria said. "Some of my former students that I got to know better through sports are good friends of mine now."
The Railroader student-athletes appreciate Bria being at their games, especially the Sparks baseball team.
"Well the baseball players love her because she makes cookies and brownies for them," Shugar said. "Right there, she had them with that. They all know though that she's very knowledgeable of the game and they know that she'll be there for them. She's just awesome when it comes to something like that."
Although the team enjoys the baked goods, the players' appreciation goes beyond snacks.
"I think that I kind of fill in because a lot of our parents aren't able to get to the games because of work," Bria said. "So it's just somebody they know they can depend on to be there to watch them. They definitely appreciate it. They always ask me in class 'Are you going to be at the game today, are you going to be at the game?' so I think they definitely notice and appreciate it."
With Bria having no plans of taking a break from keeping score or running the chains, the players will be able to depend on her support for years to come, along with her cookies and brownies.

** Proceeds to Benefit
the NIAF Andrea Bocelli Scholarship **
January 12, 2001) Acclaimed Italian tenor
Andrea Bocelli will perform Sunday evening, March
25 at First Union Center in Philadelphia
as part of his Spring 2001 North America Tour. The
National Italian American Foundation (NIAF) will host a private
dessert reception immediately following Bocelli's concert at
First Union for a select group of people who have purchased
their premium concert tickets through the Foundation.
The NIAF has
secured 200 of some of the best seats in the house, including 40
first row-seats. Proceeds from the NIAF private post-concert
reception and concert tickets will benefit the NIAF Andrea
Bocelli Scholarship and are partially tax deductible.
In October
2000, Andrea Bocelli received the National
Italian American Foundation's Year 2000 U.S./Italy Friendship
Award during the NIAF gala awards dinner in Washington, DC .
President Clinton, Muhammad Ali and over 3,100 prominent
Italians and Italian American leaders in business, sports,
entertainment, the professions, and government attended the
dinner. Bocelli also performed via satellite
with the Boccherino Institute Youth Orchestra from Lucca, Italy
during the NIAF gala in honor of the Foundation's 25th
anniversary. Illness prevented Bocelli from accepting his award
in person.
Bocelli has sold more than 20 million records worldwide since he
entered the American music scene in 1997 with the release of his
album, Romanza and the single "Con Te Partirò"
(Time To Say Goodbye). Romanza topped the charts in
more than 13 countries and sold more than 500,000 copies in the
U.S. alone during the first three months of its release.
1999, Bocelli received his first Grammy nomination for Best New
Artist, while four of his albums charted simultaneously on the Billboard
Top 200 chart, a feat achieved only twice in recent memory by
Garth Brooks and U2. Last year also marked Bocelli's American
opera debut with the Detroit Opera Company. Today, millions of
Americans continue to watch his PBS television specials and
listen to his four platinum albums, Romanza, Aria, Sogno,
Sacred Arias. On September 12, 2000, his sixth album Verdi
was released. Bocelli's first complete opera recording, La
Bohème, was released on November 7, 2000.
The special
NIAF concert and private reception package is $500 per person
with a limited amount of front row seats at $1,000 each. NIAF
VIP tickets and reception tickets will be sold on a
"first-come, first-served basis." For tickets, please
contact: Lisa Pitocco at 202/387-0600 x 40.

Very Pretty!
By Pam
from CALGARY
Knowing the history of Clogau Gold, I've been wanting a Clogau ring for quite a while, have been waiting for one to come along in a design that I liked and could afford.This one is very pretty, I love the unique design and the meaning behind it. The silver and rose gold are expertly polished to a high shine and the Topaz stones are very nice too.Excellent quality craftsmanship, absolutely love it! Definitely a keeper, might have to save up for an all gold one too!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This ring is very special!
By TK
from Calgary, Alberta
I had read about the British and Irish mines that are precious to the Royals and one day imagined that I would own a "little" piece of their heritage. I know that the Royals always have a wedding band made to go with their engagement ring, such as Catherine did.I was so thrilled to be able to purchase this ring at a very reasonable price and I understand that the mine is closed now and it will be more difficult to obtain this type of gold etc, from this particular mine.I have receive so many complements about this ring; where it came from, what is its origin etc. I feel very fortunate that I was able to purchase a small piece of history.It feels like it was made for me and I am so pleased with this ring. I hope who ever buys anything from Clogau Gold, will feel the same way that I do.
I feel very priviledged to own this ring
As my title said, I feel very priviledged to own this ring.I have wanted to have a piece of "Royal History" for quite some time now and with the mine closed I bought this ring as I didn't know if it would ever come my way again.What a pretty ring it is! Wow! It really has something "special" about it and anyone who has seen it remarks about that "something special" as well. Its craftmanship is amazing and once you put this ring in your hands and feel it, you understand how special it really is. Once you put it on your finger, wow... You really feel quite honored, at least that is how I felt. The packaging is lovely and there is a pamphlet that tells you all about the ring, the mines where the Royals have had their rings done for many, many years. The Mine is now closed and whatever is left is left. That is why I feel so honored to have a piece of history. I believe that Prince William and Princess Catherine (and perhaps Little George) had the last of it in the mine. It's just too special to ignore.

Lindsay Lohan believes Los Angeles cops have a "vendetta to bring her down" after they are pushing for her to be jailed for lying about her car crash in June, TMZ.com is reporting.
The Liz and Dick actress still claims she wasn't driving her Porsche during the accident on the Pacific Coast Highway, but several eye witnesses are insisting she was behind the wheel. The 26-year-old star is "terrified" of going back to jail because Judge Stephanie Sautner has told her she will violate her current probation if she breaks the law again. Lohan is allegedly saying "One car accident could ruin everything for me."
Lindsay is on probation since being found guilty of stealing a necklace in July 2011, for which she was sentenced to 120 days in prison and 480 hours of community service, and is telling friends she has since done everything right to abide by the law.
The party-loving starlet's publicist Steve Honig recently quit after a rollercoaster few months for the actress, which also saw her accuse mother Dina Lohan of taking cocaine. A source recently told RadarOnline.com "Prosecutors and cops think there is more than enough evidence for the judge to find Lindsay in violation of probation and are hopeful that this time, she will face the maximum penalty for lying to cops. Remember, the burden is much lower for a probation violation, just the fact that Lindsay will be charged with a crime is enough for her probation to be revoked and sent to jail."

"Choice" is such a nice word that everybody wants to have it on their side.
"Choice" is also a fuzzy word, which may be why Mitt Romney is willing to call himself a supporter of "school choice". In the strange language of education politics, "choice" sometimes means advocating the partial privatization of school systems through charter schools – which Romney supports. It can also indicate support for voucher programs, which is another thing altogether – and which Romney is said also to support.
Charter schools are constrained by the same laws and policies that, for example, prohibit public schools from endorsing religion. Vouchers, on the other hand, allow parents to use public money to pay for private, mostly religious schools that are largely unaccountable to the public. So, for example, a voucher school may use your taxpayer dollars to teach its students that the earth is 6,000 years old. And a number of such schools now do just that.
You don't have to be a constitutional scholar to get that using public money to fund religious schools violates the letter and spirit of the first amendment. Even the radical conservatives in today's Federalist Society would agree that the US constitution would not allow the government to cut a check to, say, the local mosque in exchange for supplying education to local schoolchildren. That is why they invented "vouchers": by pushing the "choice" to use government money to subsidize religion down to the parents, the government can fund religious schools while pretending that it is not.

Revisionist history is as wrong as it is fashionable, but rarely is it as obvious as on Wikipedia, where legions of Sarah Palin fans are reportedly editing the Paul Revere entry to make it match the former Alaska governor's version of the silversmith's famous ride.
The list of edits is telling for an event that happened 236 years ago.
One edit was removed because a Wikipedian said the new info was "not backed by a reliable sources (it was sarah palin interview videos)."
Another shows a bit of bias against the former Republican candidate for vice president of the United States: "[A newspaper] may be a reliable source, but on this Palin clearly is not."
The Paul Revere discussion page is basically a flame war.
A Wikipedia administrator writes "if you mention Sarah Palin you're doing it wrong. This article is about Paul Revere, a historical figure who died nearly two centuries before Sarah Palin came to prominence. She has absolutely nothing to do with the article. I would expect to see contemporary sources and theories proposed by modern historians, but Sarah Palin is neither here nor there."
For the blissfully unaware, Palin, a potential presidential candidate in 2012, seemed to be confused when asked in Boston about the story of Paul Revere.
Palin, on a bus tour, said Revere went on his midnight ride to notify the British that they shouldn't confiscate American weapons.
Her actual quote was something like this: "[Revere] warned the British that they weren't gonna be takin' away our arms, by ringing those bells, and makin' sure as he's riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be sure and we were going to be free, and we were going to be armed."
Perhaps Revere was the progenitor of the Second Amendment to the Constitution, which came about 16 years later, but I don't recall that from the history books I've read.
Revere, according to history, rode through an area north of Boston in 1775 to warn residents that British forces were on the move. He didn't really shout "The British are coming," because, at that time, almost everyone in the area was considered "British."
If nothing else, the U.S. public, and a few candidates it seems, will learn more about their country this election cycle.

I don't care if you can point to a few statements wherein Revere MAY HAVE "warned" the Brits that they were gonna get their asses kicked HE IS KNOWN FOR warning AMERICANS that the British were arriving – by sea or land – with laterns not effing bells. PERIOD. She is an IDIOT. Just deal with it.

"Um, like 1 historian said what she said was sort of correct."
'Sort of correct' is still wrong. If I answered a history question 'sort of correct' on a test it would still be marked as wrong.
"…and scientists say Creationism is scientific fact."
Really? Scientists have finally discovered scientific evidence for Creationism? When did this happen?
June 6th, 2011
5:31 pm
This is a repost from FACT because it is DEAD ON!!!
What she said is confusing, idiotic rambling that happens to remotely resemble what actually happened.
It is a stupid statement that implies Revere was out to make lots of racket to warn the British of the impending fight they were up against. That's not what happened, as per Revere's own words.
He was sent to warn the colonists that the British were coming (to arrest certain people and take weapons stockpiles). He only "warned" the British after he was captured and talked about what he was doing.
If you look at the historical record and what Palin said and conclude they are one in the same, you are an idiot.

Sarah Palin is no genius, but she is smart enough to rake in a fortune. I don't think she would be taken as a serious presidential candidate for 2012, but she will have a large degree of influence nonetheless. She has a fair amount of charisma, but does not usually fair well when she's not reading off a teleprompter. Who cares if she maligns the facts? She's still more interesting than the Kardashian bimbos (BTW, they've made a fortune also).

Revere was sent, with 2 others, to let the MAss. militia know it was time to fight. When he was stopped he tried to scare the British off. He did not ride through the streets screaming and shooting to warn off or scare the British or brag about our superiority and gun power. Palin once again shot off her mouth and now people are bending the truth to make her look less like an idiot who doesn't know the most basic 3rd grade story. And you know what, this has nothing to do with Obama. You tea partiers will be hard pressed to find anyone in any party with such deep foot in mouth disease as Palin except for Bachman. You embrace her, you embrace all her stupidity too!

Seems like Doug at 11:45 just pointed out who the dumb ones are…..Palin was right all along. Hmmmm…..yep, keep trashing her all you know it alls.

In fact, Revere's own account of the ride in a 1798 letter seems to back up Palin's claim. Revere describes how after his capture by British officers, he warned them "there would be five hundred Americans there in a short time for I had alarmed the Country all the way up."
Boston University history professor Brendan McConville said, "Basically when Paul Revere was stopped by the British, he did say to them, 'Look, there is a mobilization going on that you'll be confronting,' and the British are aware as they're marching down the countryside, they hear church bells ringing — she was right about that — and warning shots being fired. That's accurate."
Patrick Leehey of the Paul Revere House said Revere was probably bluffing his British captors, but reluctantly conceded that it could be construed as Revere warning the British.
(Who's the dummy now? ) Seems like Palin was right once more. Just like when she said you could see Russia from her backyard. Right again. She just keeps showing who the losers are.
The water between Alaska and Russia is called the Bering Strait. In the strait there are two islands, Big Diomede and Little Diomede. Little Diomede belongs to the US and Big Diomede belongs to Russia. They are about 2 miles apart, so you can see Russia from Alaska.

I think Sarah wins on this road tour if nobody mentions recently released "Blind Allegiance" or the trove of 1/2 governor e-mails the public will see. She wants this distraction from substance.
I don't see her as a legitimate candidate but she loves the attention. If elected we will be fortunate that she doesn't serve full term.

This is why "Wikipedia" is not considered a reliable source. Sarah, you actually have to READ adult history books to get the full view. But, being raised in Massachusetts, and that being a required part of our elementary education, we would have been marked WRONG with an answer like that. This woman (said loosely) gives females a bad name.

What a great day for the Democrats. Obama's policies are going South. Weiner apologizes to Breitbart. Breitbart goes "Billy Mays" and says, "But wait, there's more!" Liberal media concocts Sarah Palin "controversy" to overshadow Demos' Weiner's conflagration. Huma the Beard won't beard no mo'. Every liberal columnist required to write snarky tripe about the Hon. Gov. Sarah Palin and then they got caught in her trap, arguing with Paul Revere's diary. Look it up with the Massachusetts Historical Society. I really shouldn't piss off Georgia Democrats, they have a history of donning white sheets and pointy hats and lynching blacks and white Republicans.

In this one statement, accurate or not, Palin has proven herself to be out of touch with America, probably from living on the other side of Canada for so long. She is practically a Russian. She lives closer to the Kremlin than to Washington DC!

The town of Columbus, Ohio has a larger population than the entire state of Alaska…if the mayor of Columbus Ohio walked away from his elected position after serving less than half his term, does that mean the mayor is qualified to be POTUS? Heck no ! Can you say quitter?

Sarah Palin is very good at learning soundbites, but outside of her few learned cues she just starts spewing any stuff that comes into her tiny little brain whether it makes sense or not. She doesn't think, doesn't read, and cannot fathom that she can be wrong about anything. Do we want someone this stupid, from the left or the right, as our Commander in Chief? Our President has to be a person of thought AND action, dealing with all kinds of people of all kinds of thoughts and beliefs in all kinds of situations. Folksy, cute, and charming as Sarah is, folksy, cute, and charming won't cut in on the world's stage. You betcha! *wink*

Everyoine was British then. Paul Revere was British, so was George Washington and every other colonist. So Paul Revere did not say " the British are coming"
so Sarah Palin was right when she said that Paul Revere warned the British, because EVERYONE was British subjects then.

I find it pretty ironic that a politicians who was former governor of alaska and ran for vice president and is now a presidential candidate does not know the history of the might Paul Revere? To me that is shocking and really embarrassing.

Holiday hiring is up to the best level in five years, according to this year's 2012 seasonal hiring forecast from job site Snagajob.com. Among hiring managers with responsibility to hire seasonal workers for the holidays, 63% will be hiring this year, up from 51% last year.
Overall, companies are adding hundreds of thousands of employees to the payroll and seasonal employment hiring is expected to outpace last year's 718,500 jobs.
Both Walmart and Kohls are planning to hire over 50,000 seasonal workers. Macy's is projecting adding 80,000 workers to the payroll. Target is expected to hire between 80,000 and 90,000 additional workers to help with the holidays. Toys R Us plans on adding 45,000 seasonal workers. Other major retailers are also adding jobs, as are package delivery firms like UPS.
Not all these jobs are part-time, temporary positions. 49% will be full-time jobs and half of those hired for a seasonal job will be offered a full-time permanent position, according to Snagajob's report.
If you're looking for a holiday job, don't wait. Companies have started hiring to add the extra staff they need to get through the busy holiday season. Snagajob reports that 57% of companies plan on completing their hiring by the end of October, up from 46% last year.
Here's more on the seasonal hiring that's happening now and here's more on holiday season jobs and how to find them.

Please note: these instructions do not apply to a 2.0 -> 2.1 upgrade. For instructions on how to perform that upgrade, please see this thread: http://processwire.c...opic,583.0.html
Upgrading ProcessWire from the ZIP file
1. Download the latest version of ProcessWire from the downloads page at GitHub and click the "Download ZIP" button: https://github.com/r...archives/master
2. Extract the ZIP file somewhere temporary (I usually extract on my desktop).
3. Replace the following files from your existing installation with the new versions found in the ZIP you extracted. If you want to be able to revert back to the old version, backup any files you replace first.
- Replace: /wire/ with the new version
- Replace: /index.php with the new version
- Replace: /.htaccess with the new version (rename htaccess.txt from the ZIP to .htaccess)
Your site is now upgraded. Test that everything works as it should.
Upgrading ProcessWire using Git & GitHub:
If you originally installed from the source at GitHub, you can upgrade to the latest version of ProcessWire easily by using git pull.
cd /your/processwire/installation/ git pull
All files related to your specific site are contained in the /site/ dir, which is not part of the source files on GitHub, so it should remain untouched through the git pull (though it doesn't hurt to back it up).
Your site is now upgraded, but you'll want to finalize it by doing a little housekeeping. You will find that git pull added some files that weren't there before. Here's what you should do with them:
- Delete: /install.php
- Delete: /site-default/
- Rename: /htaccess.txt => .htaccess
The above steps are optional if you are upgrading a non-production/development server. Since I git pull regularly, I just leave these files in place so that I don't have to delete them every upgrade. In addition, the .htaccess file rarely changes through upgrades. While optional on a local development server (that isn't accessible from outside), on a production server, you absolutely need to perform these steps.
Your site is now upgraded. Test that everything works as it should.

Recipe from Good Food magazine, May 2002
Comments, questions and tips
I was surprised how tasty this risotto is - I did cheat and add some pancetta and used a meat stock to please the meat loving husband, but think it would be equally good without it. It is quite substantial especially if you use the large mushrooms. I used sun blushed tomatoes and about twice as many as in the recipe.
I've made this four times now and it turns out incredibly tasty every single time. My fridge was quite empty yesterday so I made it without the spinach and parsley and I substituted white wine with white wine vinegar and water (1:1) and it still tasted delicious. If you want some meat in it you can add some bacon.
This is a delicious recipe and feels very luxurious but the butter and the oil are a little unnecessary! I just used a low calorie cooking spray instead. I added a tablespoon of ricotta and a sprinkling of crushed chillis at the end for a bit of a kick and it does need plenty of seasoning. If I made it again I would stick some chopped bacon in with the onion at the start!
This recipe is fantastic. I ended up using a bag of baby spinach rather than young because the bag was the exact size I needed - It ended up delicious. I left out the parsley and I don't think it suffers for it. I found that (like with most risottos) you have to play the timing a little by ear - I had to add about a half cup extra water at the end otherwise the rice would have been too hard but I probably could have had it on a lower heat and been a bit more patient. Haha. I am so looking forward to making it again!
Exactly what I like in a risotto. Rich, creamy and filling with some lovely flavours. As I love spinach I tend to double the amount, but in that case it's worth holding back a bit on the stock or the result will end up a bit too watery (because of the added liquid released by the spinach). Also nice when served with some roasted pine seeds sprinkled on top.

Pros – bonus, 401k, walking trail, bank on premises to get your money
Cons – Poor management, unable to write consistent performance reviews and not able to figure out that employees talk to each other and figure out they are not equal , and are discriminatory. Unequal pay for performance., also they say it is ok to cheat on statistics used in the reviews., in other works no two employees do same stuff or have exact same skills, they ID candidate ahead of time. they a
Advice to Senior Management – Fire a few of you. Stand up to upper management on how to treat employees instead of driving them away , treat them with dignity and respect. Don't abuse power. You are greedy and only think of yourselves and getting your big bonus at the end of the year not caring about how this affects the employees states of mind....ect...Dont find error in all calls like required, coach to avoid error instead.

'The Showtune Mosh Pit' for February 20th, 2013
Overheard last weekend under the showtune
video screens at Sidetrack and The Call:
The national tours are about to descend upon us! And yes, the world learned just yesterday that "Wicked" would be returning to Chicago once again, for the 2013 holiday season (October 30-December 21). It will be at the scene of its three and half year triumphant run during the last decade (2005-09), the Oriental Theatre, which was not the case for the show's visit in 2010-11 (it was at the Cadillac Palace). So, diehard fans will be happy.
But there are so many tours to get through before the green girl and company return again. In fact, there are seven major touring productions opening and closing here in the next eleven weeks alone! Buckle your seat beats, and your wallets, Chicago, for the buses and trucks are arriving! Let's review the proceedings, shall we?
First up, and in a non-Broadway-In-Chicago venue, is the return of "Fela!," the musical based on the life and music of Fela Anikulapo Kuti, the Nigerian musician and political figure of the 1970s and 80s. The show is this week, February 19-23, at the Arie Crown Theater, inside the easternmost building of the McCormick Place convention center complex. Chicago area resident Michelle Williams of Destiny's Child (you saw her during the Super Bowl halftime show, didn't you?) is headlining this tour. Bill T. Jones' Tony Award-winning choreography will be on display as well.
Next up on the touring docket (and back in the fold of Broadway In Chicago we go) is the pre-Broadway engagement of the first New York revival of "Jekyll And Hyde," the early 90s pop musical that introduced Broadway to an entire generation of Miss America contestants. We will have it for two weeks (March 12-24) at the Cadillac Palace Theatre. "Rock Of Ages" star Constantine Maroulis and former Broadway "Aida" Deborah Cox (both of them with significant Los Angeles television and recording industry credits, too) are headlining this outing, directed by Jeff Calhoun and including Frank Wildhorn's first complete score to reach the Main Stem (starring his then wife and muse, Linda Eder). It reaches Broadway this time on April 5, and their pre-Broadway engagements are few in number, so we are lucky to get it! Can being a guilty pleasure strike twice?
Overlapping the run of "Jekyll And Hyde" here (March 19-30) will be the first Chicago appearance of "Priscilla Queen Of The Desert," the musical with no appositive comma in its title. But it does have over 500 costumes, and a Tony Award for those, too (echoing the Oscar for costumes that the designers won for their work on the source film). This run will be at the Auditorium Theatre of Roosevelt University, so I hope they give those costumes room to breathe up there! And don't forget the score, made up of all the great disco diva anthems of the 1970s and 80s ("I Will Survive," "It's Raining Men," etc.). This show is fun and meaningful. What's the matter with that?
