Florida. It's the home of WWE's developmental territory, was the base for TNA's Impact Wrestling show, and also has a lot of indie promotions dotted around the state offering wrestlers the chance to step into the ring on a regular basis, and also train with a range of different names. It has also become the home to one of the most exciting women's promotions in the United States, and it has caught the attention of a number of female grapplers.
SHINE Wrestling held its 10th show at the weekend – main points can be found below – and is on the verge of crowning its first champion. Considering this time last year the promotion didn't exist, it is remarkable that many are ranking it as one of the top all-women promotions in the country – and for good reason. It is presenting shows on a monthly basis – save for a couple of breaks, like the one happening next month when no show is being presented – it is on internet pay-per-view, meaning the wrestlers are showcased to the entire world at the same time as the fans in attendance at Ybor City's Orpheum, and many of the roster also increase their earning by spending the weekend in the state to work extra shows or work a Slammin' Ladies custom shoot or two. It's all great experience for women who may only wrestle a few times a month to get some extensive ring time. It also has some pleasant weather, so that must also be an attraction.
This has not gone unnoticed by some wrestlers. Names like Mia Yim, Luscious Latasha, Brittney Savage, Solo Darling, Jessicka Havok and more have either moved or are in the process of moving to Florida to put themselves in a more advantageous position when it comes to the local promotions like Battling Bombshells, Florida Underground Wrestling, World Xtreme Wrestling, I Believe In Wrestling and more. After all, why would a promoter pay to fly someone in when a similarly impressive talent is a short drive away? It cuts expenses and makes for a better bottom line. Great wrestlers can get regular work, while ones looking to get more experience have the chance to work with names who may have more matches under their belt, and are also in a prime place to be spotted by and to tryout for WWE. It's a beneficial opportunity for all, and everybody wins. Right?
Not quite. There is a risk that Florida is becoming *too* popular.
With so many wrestlers in Florida – including ones who have been there for some time like Leva Bates, Santana Garrett, Kimberly and more – there is a possibility that the state may become saturated, with too many female wrestlers for shows, so some will get left by the wayside. The most popular, most established and best wrestlers may be fine, but those who are looking to gain more experience there may be struggling to get booked unless they work cheap, which is a shame. You can see how busy it is in Florida and how abundant the choice is by looking at the SHINE shows, where transferred Floridians like Savage aren't being regularly booked there. When you factor in the ones who are being flown in, there unfortunately will always be some who are left by the wayside.
In the past, there have been great hubs for women's wrestling – the north east had Women Superstars Uncensored, World Women's Wrestling and other promotions booking women on shows, while the Midwest had SHIMMER and IWA: Mid South as main focuses. At the moment, Florida is the big one, but eventually somewhere else will start to flourish, and it would be beneficial for grapplers to keen an eye out for where that may be and pounce on it first.
While I don't have a crystal ball, Canada has a lot going on at the moment, with Femmes Fatales constantly growing, Acclaim Pro Wrestling seeing more women's matches, and Elite Canadian Championship Wrestling experiencing some gaps in its female talent, which spells opportunity for anyone willing to give it a shot. The Midwest still has SHIMMER as well as Absolute Intense Wrestling's Girls Night Out series in Cleveland, and Girl Fight Wrestling's first show takes place on Friday in Indiana, which will also be broadcast on iPPV. Should that be a success, that could produce more shows and provide more opportunity in the future. When you consider RESISTANCE Pro has a lot of women's matches and Zero 1 USA & Remix Pro Wrestling is also based in the area, there is still a lot going on round there.
Looking further afield, Japan can also be lucrative as Jenny Rose, Hailey Hatred, April Davids and Kellie Skater have all proven that you can make a living there, while Leah Von Dutch has demonstrated that you can spend a month in the UK and work multiple times every weekend – in fact, she racked up 10 bookings in more than half a dozen promotions in less than 30 days.
As fans, keep an eye on where wrestlers are relocating to – it's a sign of where we should be paying attention.
A few interesting developments have taken place in Ice Ribbon over the last week, so it deserves a quick mention.
The promotion held its annual Yokohama Ribbon show on Saturday, with two championships changing hands. Neko Nitta captured the Triangle Ribbon title for a record breaking 4th time, defeating 3-time titleholder Miyako Matsumoto & fellow challenger Kurumi to claim the championship. Since winning the title for the first time on June 7, 2011, 35-year old Nitta has held the belt for a combined time of more than a year, making her the face of the division.
Meanwhile in the main event, Muscle Venus (Tsukasa Fujimoto and Hikaru Shida) regained the International Ribbon & REINA x World Tag Team titles, from ICEx60 Champion Tsukushi & Aoi Kizuki. However, while they still possess the International Ribbon straps as of this writing, the REINA x World tag titles have been returned to their parent promotion. The reason is that the working agreement between the two groups has been severed following a change in management at REINA x World. A decision on the future of the vacated tag belts will be announced in due course, though Muscle Venus had been scheduled to defend the titles on June 22.
For REINA x World, it's another chapter in what has been a frustrating existence for the joshi/lucha hybrid promotion. The company was folded a year into its existence, revived under new management a year ago, and has undergone a regime change of sorts again. It aligned itself with Ice Ribbon last year in what seemed to be mutually beneficial for both sides, considering IR was going through a transitional period with its roster. However things have changed – Ice Ribbon has seen new names like Risa Sera, 235 and Rutsuko Yamaguchi gaining more experience – and rapidly too, considering how often the promotion runs dojo shows. Hailey Hatred is a regular on shows these days, Kizuki, Kurumi and others are always attractions, Tsukushi is a safe hand as its main titleholder, and Muscle Venus brings the other experience and cross-promotion glamour. After some rocky roads last year, it's nice to see that Ice Ribbon has regained its direction.
Holly Blossom beat Taeler Hendrix on last Friday's Ohio Valley Wrestling episode as part of the latest instalment of the storyline involving Hendrix and Heidi Lovelace. The Punk Rock Rag Doll interrupted the match demanding an answer to her declaration of affections to the redhead. Taeler took Heidi by the hand, nodded and walked to the back with her, deliberately getting herself counted out. It's not clear what that meant, but it's an enticing development.
Hendrix also discussed a number of topics in an interview with The Greg DeMarco Show, which referred to last week's Roundup as a breakdown of the story so far. On the OVW angle (which she gave for the most part in character), she said "Um, isn't every guy's fantasy a threesome?", but also claimed it was an opportunity for the women in the promotion to showcase more than just wrestling.
When asked about her status with TNA – she won the Gut Check last summer and has only been on one episode of Impact Wrestling since then – she described herself as "that hidden gem that's just waiting to be found". It's good that she isn't just killing time in OVW waiting for the call from TNA – she's keeping busy, expanding her skills and profile, and is producing some can't-miss TV. Similarly, Lovelace is enjoying the highest-profile story of her career to date, and is attracting a lot of plaudits and positive attention for how she is handling the angle, especially since she is a protagonist in this whole thing – if she played it the wrong way it could become a circus, but she has played it perfectly so far. Bravo ladies.

North America
Tammy Sytch (who was arrested six times over a 4 month period, including three arrests in as many days back in September) was reportedly diagnosed with cervical cancer and had a hysterectomy while serving 114 days in jail for charges including disorderly conduct, assault, 3rd degree burglary and violating a restraining order installed by her ex-boyfriend. She told TMZ that she contracted the Human papillomavirus (HPV) before going to prison and was diagnosed with cancer while incarcerated. She reportedly had her uterus removed a couple of weeks ago and has been given the all clear. She also told the site that she is 480 handwritten pages into an autobiography (that should be a belter if she lays all the cards on the table) and is planning a move to New Mexico… Christina Von Eerie makes her NCW Femmes Fatales debut at Femmes Fatales XII on July 6 against Angie Skye.

She strapped it up and went out for the semi finals, where they lost to Kimber Lee & Drew Gulak… Jessicka Havok retained her SHINE title tournament spot by beating Portia Perez at SHINE 10. Allysin Kay is also out of the tournament after being suspended for 90 days because of her interference in the main event match between Rain and Angelina Love… SHIMMER promoter Dave Prazak was also at SHINE. He provided commentary for a number of the matches… Amazing Kong was forced to vacate the RESISTANCE Pro Women's Championship because she could make it to their show on Friday. The vacant belt was won by D'Arcy Dixon, who beat Nikki St John. Incidentally, that's the second time in a row the belt's changed hands because it had been vacated – the first was because Melanie Cruise suffered a concussion… Cheerleader Melissa was named the AIDS Walk San Francisco's first "Walker of the Week". She's been fundraising for them for a number of years… Kimber Lee won many plaudits for her performances over the two-day Absolute Intense Wrestling's JT Lightning Invitational Tournament.

The Lumberjills will be members of Aberdeen, Scotland's roller derby team… Saraya Knight won the Herts and Essex Wrestling Women's Championship from Skarlett on Saturday… Nikki Storm won her bracket of the TNA Gut Check Challenge… Speaking of Nikki, she retained her Pro Wrestling: EVE Championship on Saturday, even though she lost her defence against Rhia O'Reilly via DQ.

Also on the card, Shanna beat Leah Von Dutch, Kay Lee Ray & Emi Sakura to win the Queen of the Ring tournament… Kirsty Love main evented Sunday's RAD:PRO Wrestling show, losing to Jigsaw in what she later described as the best of her career to date… Penelope made her debut in Italy at the weekend, losing to Amazon Ayesha Ray… Ayesha is also out of this weekend's TLC Match for the first UK Main Event Wrestling show.

Australia & New Zealand
Madison Eagles defeated Shazza McKenzie to retain the Pacific Pro Wrestling Women's Championship a week last Saturday… New Horizons Pro Wrestling has announced an 8-woman tournament representing the IndyGurlz division at the end of July. Australian Women's Champion Eliza Sway and former titleholder Kellie Skater were obviously going to be involved, but the third participant is a surprise – it's Portia Perez, who is keen to get her hands on Kellie Skater following her Tag Team Championship loss at SHIMMER Volume 57 and is seemingly willing to fly halfway around the globe to do it. Since then, Miami and Nikita Naridian have also been announced.

text: Blaupunkt showed off their Lucca portable car GPS unit at the IFA show in Berlin today, the audio-centric company's first such unit. The Lucca will come in two different models, a £370 version that apparantly attaches to your windshield, and slightly pricier £430 Smart Cradle edition that's wired straight to your car's speakers. Both versions will play music and display photos in addition to giving you voice directions. Maps are stored on SD cards, so we presume that's what you use for MP3s and pics as well. Both units should be on sale in the UK by mid-October. Also on display at Blankpunkt booth was a concept Bluetooth iPod dock that the company says will be available in 2007, which will let you control your iPod using the Lucca's touchscreen display.

Forums → Art, Music, and Writing → Jeol: The Resuscitation
I need no introduction. Oh, wait, I guess that's a little late. As you may have guessed, this is the infamous Jeol's thread.
So this morning, I was on my way to the co-op I take classes at thinking about my speech, when out of the blue comes a story. About a land named Rhyme. So, in the class I made my speech in after my speech, I started to work on one of my first poems that wasn't inspired by the 'First Line Poetry' thread, a quatrain.
Rhymes of Rhyme - a quatrain.
Once upon a time,
in the land of Rhyme,
rhyming was so prime,
it sparked such a fine time.
There was a man named Pine
in the land of Rhyme
who rhymed so prime,
it made ev'rybody cry.
When the man died,
it made the country dry
for the prime of their rhymes,
and the rhymes lost their shine.
In times since then,
in the land of Rhyme,
rhyming was so bland,
no one ever rhymed again.
Yes, the non-rhyming of the last stanza was intentional. Yes.
I will post other creations and whatnot in the future.

Old Man Geguufa

Remember what, you ask?

I really like all of your photography. It looks quite professional.
If anyone wants a character to be drawn, give me the details (animal, color, features, etc.) and I will make a quick sketch. I am also open to poetry topics. :P
You wanna draw my character?
Email me. Woot.
I really like that butterfly one, except for the big ole Devian watermark.... >,>

that the world lays in chrome.
Oh how I long to soar
away from all abstractions
and find such a wonderful tome.
How I long to find my private shore,
and settle in with gentle actions
to the place that is my home.

text: With the increasing technology and many with a decent camera at the convenience of their mobiles, almost everyone can claim to be a 'photographer'. It is in this digital world that Paulius Rudokas challenges this orthodox. At only 18 years old, he is unlike many of his age; prefering to use black and white film and develops and prints his photographs in his bedroom (he is not yet able to get a dark room). He believes that film forces the photographer to make every shot matter which is reflected in his prints; though not perfect, often filled with charming character.

Art + Culture
The Irish are Back at St. Ann's
Enda Walsh sold out the Galway Arts Festival with his dark, dangerous and blisteringly funny tale of one man and his judgement day. Next stop for the Irish playwright: St. Ann's Warehouse, where you can see Cillian Murphy star in the US debut of Misterman starting November 30.
"I wish you could meet Enda Walsh in person. He looks quite normal, and he doesn't age! And he's hilariously funny. You'd never suspect the dark behind the humor – until you see his plays – full of longing, dreams, and unattainable trials," St. Ann's Director Susan Feldman tells us.
Cillian Murphy's character, Thomas Magill, is the self-proclaimed moral leader of Innisfree, Ireland, journeying through the town to seek salvation for his neighbors, who all but shun him. He's been described as a child trying to push a rock up a hill. Thomas does a lot of running, climbing, flinging to work out his destiny. Feldman, who saw the play in Galway in July, says, "It's clear that the character had taken on a life of his own, no longer the mere invention of the man I was talking to – something I've felt before about Enda and his plays. They're unimaginable, miraculous."
This is Cillian Murphy's first collaboration with playwright/director Enda Walsh since Disco Pigs, which launched both men's careers 15 years ago.
Misterman garnered tremendous acclaim at Galway. Reviewing Misterman's July run, the Irish Independent has described the production as "theatre at its most raw, most barbaric and most beautiful." Which, we might add, happens to be a spot-on description of St. Ann's Warehouse as well.
Misterman runs November 30- December 21. Tickets are available here.

Update: the wiper problem turned out to be a bad computer. When I got the truck back the turbo went out. 43k on truck resale the same as the dodge we did not buy. The only problem with that is the dodge was 12 k less new! Now both trucks valued at 39 k. Will buy a new dodge this spring. Will miss the comfort of the ford, but not the relibility.Report it

Geographic Information Systems
Knowledge of Advanced Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Tools
Geographic Information Systems is a powerful tool that can do much more than just create beautiful maps. Knowledge of the extensions available for GIS can unlock statistical and spatial relationships that are not easily perceived with standard mapping tools. These tools can give visual indication of trends and interactions that can broaden the story the data chronicles.
Above is work I completed while attending the University of Illinois at Chicago. Here, all the origins and destinations have been aggregated to density-depicting heat maps using Spatial Analyst. From that, Network Analyst was used to identity the shortest distances from the strongest destination and origin centers. Adding one more level of complexity, Network Analyst was instructed to avoid any path that intersected high bicycle crash frequency locations. This approach to bicycle route analysis can be very effective when paired with community input. In this way, both qualitative and quantitative data can be blended to find the best possible route selections.
Quality maps can do more then simply denote location. Quality maps tell stories about the data they depict. The stories they tell can shed light on different relationships and suggest different responses to the stories told.
Being able to collect and properly display data is key to a communicative map. To the left is original data collected using a system I developed while studying at the University of Illinois at Chicago. This map chronicles all the vacant properties within the Chicago Community Area of New City. Given the short amount of time available, this was not a simple endeavor.
Additionally, while working at the Active Transportation Alliance, I was tasked with processing the state's raw crash data. I produced numerous crash analysis maps for internal and external use. I am proud to say those maps have made concrete impacts in several communities across Illinois.
Chicagoland Bike Map - Qualitative Route Analysis
The sixth edition of the Active Transportation Alliance's signature Chicagoland Bike Map was a complete redesign and reevaluation of route choice. What makes this new 2013 bike map so unique is the complete qualitative analysis of every route displayed. Over 30 volunteers were organized to read over every section of the ten-county, three-state region that makes up Chicagoland.
Volunteers were trained and data was collected, and I was tasked with processing this detailed volunteer-collected data. Every route they had marked on the map needed to be entered and recorded for the quality of the ride. This painstaking process was applied to on-street and off-street facilities, those entailing the recording of many trail systems never before encoded to GIS.
This unique approach to bicycle route analysis has drawn considerable attention, with requests to present from the Transport Chicago Conference and the Cook County Department of Transportation. I was very happy to educate and discuss this method of qualitative analysis and data to collection. Click here for a link to the presentation given at both events.

Our mission is to provide people with disabilities, their families, and the organizations supporting them lifetime planning and support coordination services to effectively assist people with disabilities in leading happy and productive lives. We assist people with disabilities and their families with the following planning and support services in New Jersey:
We help people with disabilities and their families create a plan of service and state funded budget.
We assist parents in completing a pro se application to secure full or limited guardianship over the person with disabilities.
We assist with advertising for, screening, hiring, training and managing self-hired Direct Support Professionals (personal assistants).
We understand the system and can expedite the securing of services for your loved one.
We assist people with disabilities and their families in creating state funded individualized budgets.
While we're not a law firm, we do legal planning coordination work with many of the leading Special Needs Attorney's in New Jersey.
We insure that adequate funding is provided for & is properly owned to meet the future support needs required by a family member with a disability.
We provide consulting services for people with disabilities and their families so they can effectively navigate the post school world of social service supports.
We help families create a planning document, so they can transition to post-school day programming and residential supports.
We are proud to offer a unique resource to NJ families, our disability directory lists commonly used resources and links to websites supporting people with disabilities in the state of New Jersey.
We know how difficult it can be to find the right information, and we hope this directory will make your experience a little easier to navigate.
Life Planning is a coordinated and life long process of determining who a person with disabilities is,
what supports they need and how to access, use and structure personal, government, and family resources
to lead as happy, independent and productive life, as possible.
People with developmental disabilities, mental illness, brain injuries, serious physcial disabilities and seniors with disabilties, along with the families and organizations supporting them have the greatest need for life planning.
The first step in developing a support system for people with disabilites is to create an information profile of the person that can be easily shared with people trying to support the person with disabilities.
People with significant disabilities need extensive supports that begin when the disability is diagnosed and often last a lifetime. Some disabilities begin at birth, while others are a result of an injury or illness later in life. As awareness of the needs of people with disabilities has increased society has significantly expanded the supports provided to people with disabilities.
However, unlike the education system, there are non-uniform eligibility requirements when accessing the Social Service system. The person with disabilities and their families must be aware of, apply and be approved for each specific service, inorder to secure the maximum supports. In addition, government can only do so much, and in an era of diminishing government resources, it is critical, that families effectively supplement the services of government with personal and family supports to insure their loved one has the resources to live a happy and productive life.
To effectively access government services and to supplement these services with family resources requires knowledge and planning. We have identified eight important lifetime planning areas that people with disabilities and their families need to address:
There are federally sponsored programs, state based programs, county based services and even city and town based services. Some programs, such as, Medicaid are hybrid programs with federal requirements and partial funding but administered by the states through various state agencies. People are often unaware that Medicaid is not one program, but a variety of programs that are administered by various government agencies.
Disability Services & Advocacy, LLC offers Pro-Se Guardianship services to parents or family members wishing to become legal guardians for a person with disabilities in New Jersey. We also offer Pro-Se services to clients when they want to add or change Co-Guardians on previously approved Guardianship relationships.

Moving from liferay 4 to 5 coding issues.
<not 100% sure this is the right forum for this>
I right now have some code that is writen for liferay 4, I need to get this said code compiled and running on liferay 5.
In the original code it is calling the method getPortletSetup(ActionRequest, String, boolian, boolian) in the object PortletPreferencesFactoryUtil.
In the object PortletPreferencesFactoryUtil for liferay 5, that said function does not exist, the closest method <signature wise> is getPortletSetup(ActionRequest, String) I have been googling to see if this is indead the function I should be using <getting alot of cheinse pages, thank god for google translation, I can get the gist> but I have yet to find any real infomation to find out if it is safe to go from the version 4 dropping the boolians to the version 5 of it. Any one know
1) are they the same functions?
2) did they rename the function?
3) would it be safe to drop the 2 trues and use the version 5 with only the first 2 paramaters?
search terms used were "portletpreferencesfactoryutil getPortletSetup liferay 4 5" it also does not appear that any of the pages have my anser (well of the ones that load for me here) or maybe some one could suggest better search terms.Michael P. O'Connor

In Afghanistan, new commander steps in
Updated 11:15 pm, Sunday, February 10, 2013
Kabul -- Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford took charge of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan on Sunday as the coalition enters its final stretch of a war that has lasted more than 11 years.
The new commander faces daunting challenges, including making sure Afghan government forces are ready to take control and orchestrating the withdrawal of foreign forces during the next 23 months.
Dunford, who is likely to be the last commander of the U.S.-led international military coalition, succeeded Marine Gen. John Allen, who oversaw the buildup of governmental security forces and dealt with a series of setbacks - from Qurans burned at a U.S. base to a spike in deadly insider attacks that killed international troops.

"Today is not about change; it's about continuity," Dunford said during the handover ceremony at the coalition's headquarters in Kabul.
Dunford faces the challenge of overseeing the drawdown of about 100,000 foreign troops, including 66,000 from the United States, and helping the Afghans counter insurgent groups that show no sign of compromise. The Haqqani network has ties to al Qaeda and is thought to be responsible for many attacks on U.S. and Afghan forces, including the recent spate of insider attacks.
Dunford also must help Afghanistan secure its next presidential election in 2014 - the first ballot since the U.S. invasion that will not include President Hamid Karzai as a candidate.
"Much work lies ahead," Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, said at the ceremony.
Allen has acknowledged that the Afghans still have work to do to become an effective and self-sufficient fighting force. But he said their abilities had vastly improved, which led to the accelerating the timetable for putting them in the lead.

Clements named Acting Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences
WILMORE, KY—Dr. Stephen Clements, associate professor of political science at Asbury University, has accepted the position as Acting Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences beginning fall 2010. Clements will remain as chair of the Department of Business, Economics, and Political Science, where he has been since 2008. He will also retain his teaching position in political science.
"I am terribly pleased at the prospect of working with my faculty colleagues and the other deans and administrators around strengthening Asbury's academic programs and policies, as well as enhancing our teaching and learning culture," Clements said.
Prior to joining the Asbury faculty, Clements served as Director of the University of Kentucky's Institute for Educational Research, Director of UK's Ed.D. program in Community and Technical College Leadership, and as a graduate faculty member in the Department of Educational Policy Studies and Evaluation, also at UK.
"Dr. Clements has the perfect background for this role," Jon Kulaga, provost, said. "He has a firm foundation in the liberal arts and Wesleyan perspective as well as vast experience at the educational policy level."
Over the course of his career he has served as a Grant Program Manager for Kentucky's Education Professional Standards Board, conducted policy research projects on behalf of numerous organizations, and served as a Staff Assistant in the U.S. Department of Education in Washington, DC.
"My view is that the College of Arts and Sciences represents the core of what we do here at Asbury University," Clements said. "The Arts and Sciences disciplines—literature, history, music, art, philosophy, the natural sciences, theology, politics, Biblical studies, psychology, world languages, and so forth—provide foundational knowledge and the critical thinking infrastructure that prepares individuals for flourishing lives, no matter how their careers unfold."
Clements academic background is in Political Science with an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. He also studied Classical Languages at the graduate level at Vanderbilt University. He received a B.A. degree from Asbury in 1983, where he majored in history and minored in Greek.
He and his wife, Markie, live just outside of Wilmore and have three sons, Lee, 23, Taylor, 20, and Aaron, 18.

Just two days before news leaked that Democrat Andrew Romanoff would enter the U.S. Senate race, the current holder of that seat got a remarkable endorsement.
Willie Brown, the former House speaker of the California legislature and an influential presence on the national Democratic stage, appeared on MSNBC's "Hardball" and announced that the next heir to the Kennedy legacy in the Senate was none other than Michael Bennet.
It was a telling moment.
In less than nine months in office, Colorado's junior senator has wowed prominent national Democrats and leveraged those relationships into a cross-country fundraising machine that has banked more than $2 million in six months.
What he hasn't done is manage to bowl over rank-and-file Democrats in Colorado, many of whom continue to be skeptical of Gov. Bill Ritter's pick to fill the Senate seat vacancy created when Ken Salazar became interior secretary.
None of that would have mattered much without a primary. But with the formal entry of Romanoff in the race last week, both the strengths and weaknesses of the former Denver Public Schools superintendent suddenly become much more important.
Advantage of incumbency
The primary is shaping up as a battle between a man who has worked hard to build influence on the national scene and an insurgent who has spent much of the last decade creating a formidable constituency among ground- level party activists and county chairs.
"Bennet starts off the campaign with an overwhelming financial advantage. Romanoff starts off the campaign with an overwhelming grassroots advantage," said Steve Welchert, a Denver-based Democratic consultant.
"The game is going to be which one of these guys can best break into the other guy's strength. Can Andrew raise money, and can Michael get people to like him?" he said.
There is a rough consensus among political oddsmakers that Bennet has the edge. Politics isn't all about money, but much of it is, and Bennet has the advantage of incumbency and national party support.
Pueblo knows Romanoff
At the same time, Romanoff is acknowledged to be a deeper threat than many grassroots champions buried in recent years by better-funded opponents: Republican Bob Schaffer by Pete Coors in 2004 or Democrat Mike Miles by Salazar that same year, for example.
Considered one of the most naturally gifted Democratic politicians in the state, Romanoff has spent almost a decade preparing for a run like this — attending countless rubber-chicken dinners and building an e-mail list of supporters that allies say has at least 75,000 names, more impressive than any other state-level politician.
To get a feel for the way those forces are likely to rend the party, spend a little time in Pueblo, a rough-around- the-edges party stronghold that jealously guards its place as one of the last islands of old-style Democratic politics.
Of the $2.6 million Bennet has raised this year, just $1,250 came from Pueblo. Compare that with, say, the $23,350 he's raised from the tony residents of Scarsdale, N.Y.
In a political culture where loyalty is paid in hands shaken and political dinners attended, many Pueblo Democrats simply believe that Romanoff, who announced his candidacy on the city's Riverwalk, has paid his dues and Bennet has not.
"Pueblo is a pretty demanding community. We want to see our politicians come," said Romanoff supporter and state Sen. Abel Tapia, D-Pueblo.
"Whenever we have called Andrew over the last eight to 10 years, he's been here," said Tapia, who tells the story of traveling to California recently to visit family only to discover Bennet was having a fundraiser nearby in Hollywood. The story carried a double moral for the Pueblo politician: There is no doubt Bennet is connected, but he moves in circles a long way from Pueblo's annual Democratic dinner.
"I don't think anybody in Pueblo dislikes Bennet. As much as we know him, there is nothing to criticize. The problem is we don't know him."
But a surprising number of Democrats who count on a national level do.
Bennet is close to Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and talks with him regularly. White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel is also a consistent phone companion.
More than simply a freshman from a swing state, the White House appears to see in Bennet a model of a new Western Democrat, analysts say, fiscally conservative but reliably progressive on key administration issues like health care reform and immigration.
The national party structure has already signaled they plan to give him plenty of help. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee opened up a Bennet campaign fund last week. And on Thursday, Obama himself weighed in, unequivocally endorsing Bennet.
Other national Democrats are piling on. The surprising remarks from Brown came after just an hour of conversation between the two at breakfast the week the segment of "Hardball" was taped.
Brown said he believed Bennet could become "the next Ted Kennedy if he chooses to stay in the U.S. Senate."
The show's surprised host, Chris Matthews, responded: "He grew up with the right lineage, but I never heard anybody (make) this pronouncement."
"Very competitive situation"
Though less breathless, former Democratic Sen. Tim Wirth — now president of the United Nations Foundation — is no less taken with Bennet.
"I've listened to people talk. He's had an impact and been very impressive," Wirth said. "He's a Western progressive. I think he's going to be just perfect representing Colorado and the Western states. He has all the right makings."
Wirth said he was perplexed with Romanoff's challenge.
"Why does one run in a Democratic primary? You have major, substantive problems. There are divisions like the Vietnam War, for example," he said. "Between these two I don't see those substantive differences."
While observers agree that giving voters reasons to toss Bennet out will be among Romanoff's biggest challenges, their primary is much more likely to be about style, approach and loyalties.
"Bennet's advantage here is the money, the party establishment, Obama and the DSCC. They are all backing Bennet," said Floyd Ciruli, a Denver-based pollster.
"And while that advantage may ultimately get him through this, in this case it's no guarantee. We have a very competitive situation here," he said.

What I remember most about Michael Jordan was the morning on the team bus when Bulls' players were talking about agents and Jordan started promoting his agent, David Falk.
Someone asked Jordan if that was because of all the phenomenal endorsement deals Jordan had gotten.
"No," Jordan deadpanned. "Anyone who can get Stacey King $1 million per year has to be a genius."
What I remember most about Michael Jordan was the night before a game in late 1988.

Have you ever had someone say to you, "You're such a good mom," and while you smile and say, "Thanks," inside you think, but, if she really knew me, she wouldn't think so? If she had seen me this evening when I petered out, or yesterday when I didn't plan dinner, or last week when we didn't do school because everyone was sick, or the mess my house was in this morning. If she knew I wasn't perfect, she wouldn't say that.
Well, of course we know that nobody is perfect, but why do we so often measure ourselves against a perfect standard? And why, so many times do we feel like "bad moms?"
I think there are several reasons, which often begin with this line of reasoning:
* Good moms put their kids to bed at the same time every night.
* Good moms do devotions every day.
* Good moms have weekly/monthly menu plans, a regular shopping day, a stocked pantry, and family style, on-time meals.
* Good moms give their children baths every day, or at the very least every-other day.
* Good moms read out loud to their children.
* Good moms don't let their children eat sweets.
* Good moms wear their baby in a sling.
Now, each mom's mental list is different, depending on how she was raised or what books she has read. However the next logical step is that if she feels she has failed in anything on her list of what "good moms" do, than she must, of course, be a "bad mom."
A second reason is that she may remember times when she "had it all together." Life was flowing smoothly, she was sticking to her routines, the kitchen was clean before her bedtime (which took place right at ten), she was getting some daily exercise (as soon as she got up at six), and homeschooling was on a steady rhythm. Then she hit a rough patch—kids were sick, first trimester exhaustion, husband switched his work schedule, post-partum recovery, a big move, whatever. What's the first thing that pops into most moms' minds? What happened? What am I doing wrong that things aren't working like they did before?
Or perhaps she just knows, somewhere deep inside, that she could be doing things better. She knows that she should and could be doing better at planning meals. She knows that she'd be so much better off if she went to bed a little earlier. She has the best of intentions of cutting out the sugar in the house but it keeps creeping back in.
I think there are several antidotes to the "bad mom" syndrome. When I have these types of thoughts, I try to remember how much I have improved over the years. I now do more work in a day, and with much less angst, than I did in a month when I was first married. I no longer cringe if someone shows up at the door unannounced. I do my laundry without thinking and I'm usually only a couple of loads behind. My toilets get wiped down frequently, which is a big improvement on my first years of marriage. I could easily go a month without cleaning the toilet bowl. Housework used to be an incredibly daunting task, and I couldn't imagine it ever being effortless, but in many ways it now is. Sure, it will probably never be my mother's house, but it's looking pretty good for me.
Next question. Whose standards am I trying to live up to? It would be different if my husband demanded regular mealtimes and a spotless house, but those are not on the top of his list. Yes, I would like my home to function better, but it's generally a standard I set for myself. Why am I so disappointed at failure, when it's usually only me that is being let down?
As I drove my daughter to her music lessons at 5:30 p.m., I thought, if I were a good mom, I would have prepared dinner ahead of time. My husband and children are probably digging through the fridge right now for leftovers. A good mom would have put something in the crock-pot this morning. When I arrived home, my son had made fettucine for the family and had made sure everyone was served. I do wish I had planned better, but I was more bothered than anyone else at my failure.
Another thing we must consider is our temperament. There are many types of men and many types of vocations. There are many types of women, but for the married woman there is one vocation—wife and mom. How can our vastly different personalities all do the same job? I know women who only ever wanted to be a wife and mother. The jobs that accompany motherhood are delightful to these ladies. I think of these women as Mrs. Steadies. (My mom is one of these.) She loves the security of routines and the rhythm of a repetitive life. I am probably a Mrs. Visionary. I am constantly having to pull my head out of the clouds or away from the rabbit-trail I'm exploring and remind myself of my responsibilities. I think the Mrs. Visionaries are also more prone to perfectionism.
Yes, in my heart, I know I could be doing a better job at being mom, but when I'm honest with myself, many times I would rather attempt to play my daughter's violin or practice my penny whistle, write big, long blogs that people stop reading somewhere in the middle (oh, you're still here?), dream about the book I want to write (of course, I've got the dedication planned out), write elaborate lists and schedules that end up being so impractical the first day I try them. . . Is this really that wrong? Does being me, with my many imperfections and missteps put me on the "bad mom" list? I would say, "Of course not!" to anyone else. Is "good enough" acceptable as a mom? There are times I would say, yes. For some moms (like me), success is measured with each faltering step and each moment that they are able to see the holy in the mundane.
So is there a way for me to acknowledge where I've been (good and bad) and strive for regular improvement without the constant self-doubts? I think part of the answer is to learn to walk by grace and not by the law.
These verses come to mind:
Gal 3:23-25 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor (teacher for the immature)."
I know this is speaking of the new covenant, but I often think of this passage in terms of my life as a wife and mom. Many times the newly-married woman is clueless as to how to run a home, manage her time, cook, clean, parent. The law can be helpful in the beginning. The house-cleaning books I've read, the Flylady e-list I joined, the strict schedules I tried to keep, were beneficial to a certain point. I learned so many things through these wonderful resources. They were sort of like a "tutor" or teacher for the immature me. Because of my immaturity, I needed these helps. Have you noticed your born-organized friends don't use these things? My mother has never read a chapter on how to clean a toilet. I could give you the ten, proper steps.
However, like the law, the "perfect way" can be hard to stick to—especially as it is usually someone else's "perfect way"—and as we mature in our role it is natural to need these aids less and less. The longer I am married, the more I notice that I am beginning to function better with a more open approach. I am actually seeing what needs to be done and doing it with little thought! Amazing! I wake up and say, what needs to be done today? And then I do it. O.k, the living room is messy. . . C'mon kids, let's see how fast we can get things whipped into shape! And grace doesn't stop there. It also allows me to be imperfect, to have a "bad day" without being a "bad mom."
As I've gotten to know Molly, it has been fun to see our many similarities. One thing we have in common is that we are both deeply committed to loving our husband and children and raising them to serve and honor the Lord. However, Molly also struggles in some of the same areas that I do. Yet, I look at Molly, and I think, What a good mom! As I thought about this, it was as if the Lord said, Yes, and you are a good mom, too. The same way that you view Molly is the way that I view you. I finally believed it. I am a good mom. My children are fortunate to live in this home. God sees my heart. He doesn't expect perfection, why should I?
Lydia is a 31 year old mother of 5 children (age 13 and under) and the wife of an Alaskan police officer. She strives to be authentic in her relationship with God, her husband, and her children, and doesn't want to settle for anything less than the "real" thing.

Good Mom, Bad Mom, by Lydia Bower
Publicada por Lara em 2:32 PM 2 comments:
«The woman who works in the home (which may or may not include a home business venture on the side) is a WORKING WOMAN. Anyone who's managed an active home for a mere week can testify that being in charge of a home leaves little time for propping on the couch to watch soap operas and eating bonbons (contrary to the misconceptions most ultra-feminists seem to have--*grin*).
Being at home is an active choice, a real responsibility, and can require more labor (both mentally and physically) than many "outside careers" would ever dare to ask. Being a stay-home wife and mother IS a career--and a noble one at that.
Being a home-worker has many wonderful advantages (for both yourself and your family), but also presents many challenges...especially for those of us who have not been taught how to manage a home in the first place. It is our desire that this website will help equip and encourage you for the task» From the owners of www.choosinghome.com

Don't let the photos fool you
I fell in love with this dress the second I saw the pics of it on shopbop so I was especially disappointed when it arrived and disappointed me in every way. The first thing you notice is that the fabric is sort of cheap and heavy feeling, not nearly as gorgeous as it looks on the model. Also, while I'm aware this is a 'one size' dress, it was absolutely enormous. I'm 5'6", 115lb with a 34A chest and given how nice it looks on the model I though I'd be able to make it work for me to but no matter how I wrapped it I just couldn't get it to look right all the way around. When I saw the tag and noticed that this is intended to be a bridesmaids' dress, it all made more sense. So if what you want is an expensive bridesmaids' dress that will 'fit' everyone, go for it! If you want something chic and elegant, look elsewhere.

Cute and warm!
These are great- they are comfortable, cute, warm, and versatile. They can be worn alone, over leggings, or inside knee high boots so they just show at the top. I'm really happy with them!

Cute but strange fit
I have very narrow feet so normally Sam Edelman shoes work really well for me, but these were too long and pinched a bit at the back of the heel. They didn't seem as high quality as the price and pictures led me to expect either.

Winners (Part 1)
For the past several weeks I have been revisiting the wonderful periodical, Winners of the West (the microfilm version proovided courtesy of the best of all government programs, Interlibrary Loan).
Winners of the West published many articles and letters submitted by
"Thomas J. Dilwood, San Antonio, Texas, would like to hear from all of his old comrades of Troop B, l0th U.S. Cavalry." (May 30, l928)
"Robert McKeen would be pleased to hear from his old buddies of Company D, 25th U.S. Infantry and Troops F and A, 9th U.S. Cavalry, from l880 to l890."(Aug 30, l928)
Here's a letter with more personal/service detail from Henry Stroup, "late Sergt. Troop A, l0th U.S. Cavalry" published in the March l926 issue:
"I served...for five years, first under General Crook and then under General Nelson Miles. I was on the Geronimo campaign in l885 at Fort Apacje, Arizona. We sure had a tough old time. Our foes were cruel and wily and did not take any prisoners except to torture them to death."
And this from William Branch, a l0-year veteran of Company I of the 25th Infantry in the August l934 issue:
I campaigned under Capt. Lawson, and was discharged at Fort Randall, Dakota. I was born in Lunenburg County, VA, May l3th, l850."
There is lots of good information in these brief blurbs. Stay tuned for Part 2 of Winners

Newspaper article The Chronicle (Toowoomba, Australia)
Gourmets Punt on Squid; MasterChef Triggers Popularity
Article excerpt
Byline: Anthea Gleeson @thechronicle.com.au
Squid ink gnocchi
200g rock salt
1kg mashing potatoes (sebago or desiree)
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon squid ink from the sack of squid or cuttlefish
Pinch sea-salt
100g plain flour
Preheat oven to 190A[degrees]C fan forced. Spread rock salt evenly on oven tray.
Place the potatoes on top and bake for 45-60 minutes or until tender. Prepare the remaining ingredients for the gnocchi, as working quickly while potatoes are hot produces best results. Pass the potatoes through a mouli, in batches, into a large bowl.
Make a well in the centre. Add the egg yolk, ink and salt. Sift in the flour and stir with your hand to form a soft dough. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into four. Roll each quarter into a sausage shape about 1A1/2 cm thick. Cut each sausage into 2cm pieces. Place on a well-floured tray.
Cook gnocchi in a large saucepan of boiling salted water eight to 10 at a time. Shortly after the gnocchi has risen to the surface (test to see if cooked) remove with a strainer to a plate. …

Insatiable by Lauren Dane
#3 Federation Chronicles series/ #1 Phantom Corps series
#3 Federation Chronicles series/ #1 Phantom Corps series
bought my copy
Daniel Haws, member of the secret Phantom Corps, is on a special and very important mission. He has to make sure that vital imformation is brought to the Federation and that Carina Fardelle, who's carrying the info, will survive the trip. Carina's father is planning something dangerous and she might be the only one who can stop his cruel plans.
From the first moment Daniel meets Carina he realizes that she is no pampered princess and that there is something between them. Soon he admires her strong-willed and caring nature. Although Daniel can't deny the strong attraction between them, he tries to stay professional (at first). Carina isn't shy of showing Daniel exactly what she wants from him so staying away from her gets harder and harder. However before they can have a real chance for a future together Daniel and Carina have to survive the daring escape from her brutal father and his ruthless men.
I pretty much enjoyed everything about "Insatiable". I enjoyed getting to know the Phantom Corps group and what they are doing. I also enjoyed learning more about the extraordinary and ruthless world Lauren Dane has created. And I loved the main characters. Daniel is a very strong man who's loyalty and love for his family is breathtaking. He's merciless in his job because he knows that's the only way. Carina is his perfect match. She's strong-willed and knows what she wants. She's also caring and always excited to learn something new. I loved the scenes when she left Daniel speechless with her witty remarks and her love for him. Carina accepts him completly and understands the dark parts of his job. All of their scenes together were a joy to read and made me happy.
There are a lot of very sexy scenes between them and I enjoyed that Carina is an equal partner to Daniel when it comes to sex. I also enjoyed the sensual and sweet moments between them, for example when he is braiding her hair and she is washing him.
It was also nice to meet Abbie and Roman again (from "Relentless"). I loved reading about their relationship and the changes that happened. I also enjoyed meeting new characters like Phantom Corps member Andrei (who will be the hero in "Mesmerized", the fourth book in the series!).
"Insatiable" left me with a feeling of utter content. I especially enjoyed reading about the two extraordinary main characters and the fascinating world Lauren Dane created. The dialogs between Daniel and Carina, their sexy and sensual scenes and especially their love for each other captivated me completly. And of course the breathtakingly sexy cover added another positive aspect.

Eaks History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
Early Origins of the Eaks family
Aberdeenshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Obar Dheathain), a historic county, and present day Council Area of Aberdeen, located in the Grampian region of northeastern Scotland, where they held a family seat in their territories. The Pictish influence on Scottish history diminished after Kenneth Macalpine became King of all Scotland. But those east coast families still played an important role in government and were more accessible to Government than their western highland counterparts. Allegiances were important to Scottish middle age survival. They held a family seat at the lands of Reikie near Alford in Aberdeen. [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Lowe, Mark Anthony, Patronymica Britannica, A Dictionary of Family Names of the United Kingdom. London: John Russel Smith, 1860. Print.
The following entry is most interesting: "a person of this name in a letter to the "Weekly Scotsman" of Edinburgh some years ago said that in his family Bible under 1731 this name is spelled Rikie; and he adds that he had access to records as far back as 1460 in which the name is spelled Riki and Rikie."

Migration of the Eaks family to Ireland
Some of the Eaks family moved to Ireland, but this topic is not covered in this excerpt.
Another 77 words (6 lines of text) about their life in Ireland is included in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Migration of the Eaks family to the New World and Oceana
Some of the first settlers of this family name or some of its variants were: George Reekie, who came to Ontario in 1848; Alexander Reekie, who settled in Detroit in 1861; John Reekie, who arrived in Ontario in 1848; and William Reekie, who settled in Philadelphia in 1808..
The Eaks Motto
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Reviresco
Motto Translation: I flourish again.

She's beautiful. The whole image is wonderfully rendered, and the colour of the water is fantastic. The only thing I can point out is that there would probably be some sort of refraction, where she has her hand in the water. Beautiful though ^^

January 22nd, 2004
