My absolute favorite man in the whole world had a birthday this month! It may have taken him a while to decide on a birthday cake, but when it did it was one I never would have thought of: a healthy Swamp Monster Tres Leches cake!
The kids were super excited to give their daddy a remote control car. Just check out that jumping action!
They even wrapped it all by themselves, though there may have been a little drama with some missing batteries that somehow fell out of the wrapped present!
The cake was really an exciting project. Jon wanted a cake that Ryleigh could participate in (her super low sugar diet is a post in itself!), but he also wanted a swamp monster. So, we used this no sugar no wheat tres leches cake recipe with a few modifications: I used ground cashews instead of cashew butter, doubled the vanilla, and used almond milk instead of coconut milk. For the three "leches," I used almond milk, then whipping cream sweetened with 2 big pureed bananas, and finally, blue "swamp" whipped cream sweetened with pear juice and a little stevia. It was a fabulous no sugar cake, and we are starting to get used to the difference in sweetness level. :) Unfortunately, I did have to use some sugar for the monster. Basically, everything green is real sugar, so Ryleigh got blue pieces. :) I used normal frosting for the top of the monster head, and marshmallows for the eyes and fingers.
Look how happy she was to get the same party food as everyone else! For only being 18 months old, she is very smart and gets very upset when we try to give her a dessert that's different than everyone else's.
Kaia and Harry put the candles in. Lighting the cake was epic.
And, of course, Jon got a little help blowing out the candles. Kids are awesome.
Tragically, Jon had to go to work after his evening party. He had some clients he had to interview about 40 minutes north of our house, so as I tucked the kids in, he took off. And, just to make sure this birthday was extra memorable, he managed to get in a fender-bender on his way out of town. On a positive note, everyone involved was fine and our car should be better soon too!
On an even more positive note, I should just comment on how lucky I am to have this guy! He is so supportive and happy and puts up with all of my strange ideas so nicely. I wish we could celebrate him and his fabulous life every day!!

In 1990 Atkins unsuccessfully contested the Eastbourne by-election caused by the assassination of the Conservative MP Ian Gow by the Provisional IRA.

She was promoted to Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Transport in 2004, but was dropped after the 2005 general election.

Know your role in their lives and be wise in choosing someone you want to be with for the rest of your life.
Letting go of someone we loved is difficult and painful but we can't force someone to stay with us if they don't like anymore. So sad but we need to be strong and brave enough to accept everything and face the reality that someone is gone. ~ Ronalie De Pedro
Unfortunately most people I know only reach out to me if and when there is something in it for them. It's disheartening to say the least, especially when it's family. Even more so when my genuine care and kinship goes unnoticed because of all the other drama that holds their focus. Invisible! ~ Beth Root

Aeros split double header with New Hampshire
Akron, OH - The Aeros split their double header with the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, winning the first 7-2 and the second 1-0 Friday night at Canal Park.
In game one, the Aeros were led by left fielder Nick Weglarz's four RBI game and demonstrated a balanced approach at the plate, scattering seven hits and scoring seven runs en route to a 7-2 victory.
Weglarz hit an RBI double in the first inning that plated Tyler Holt and gave Akron a 1-0 lead, and they never looked back. The Aeros scored two more in third inning after a fielder's choice allowed Davis Stoneburner to score, and a wild pitch by Fisher Cats pitcher Joel Galarraga led to a Jordan Henry run to make the score 3-1. Another wild pitch from the New Hampshire pitching staff allowed the Aeros to score another run in the fifth, and Nick Weglarz cracked a three-run homer over the right field bleachers to give Akron all the insurance they would need.
Akron's pitching kept New Hampshire in check, giving up only two runs and four hits.
Brett Bach started for the Aeros, going 2.2 innings and allowing two runs before being replaced by Trey Haley. Haley (1-0) got the win for Akron after pitching 2.1 innings, surrendering no runs, no hits, and striking out three batters. Shawn Armstrong closed the game for Akron to register his first save of the season.
Chorey Spoone (2-3) took the loss for New Hampshire.
The second game, the Aeros lost a close contest 3-1 after unraveling in the seventh, and wasted an excellent outing from Toru Murata and a quality defensive effort behind him for most of game.
On a night where the Aeros managed only four hits, Akron needed to play some great defense to have a chance to win, and they didn't disappoint.
Akron starter Toru Murata gave the Aeros another quality start despite a lack of run support. Murata took them 5.1 innings while giving up no runs, striking out four, and keeping the Fisher Cats lineup quiet for the duration of his start.
The Aeros scored their only run of the game after catcher Roberto Perez hit a sacrifice fly to score Matt Lawson. For six innings, it appeared that the 1-0 lead would be enough for the Aeros to scrape by with and get a win. They were aided by some sloppy play from the New Hampshire defense as well, who committed three errors.
Jose Flores came on in relief for Murata in the 7th, and the wheels came off from there. Flores (0-1) blew his first save of the year and walked two batters, gave up two hits, and three runs (two earned) to allow the Fisher Cats to come from behind and nip the Aeros with some late heroics. An error by third baseman Justin Toole accounted for the unearned run.
Akron and New Hampshire continue their series tomorrow night starting at 7:05.
Notes: LF Nick Weglarz led off the second inning with a double, but was ejected following an argument with third base umpire Nick Mahrley. Attendance for Fireworks Night was 4,412.

In Response To: Ohio Civil War Rosters online ()
Thank you for this information. It is a good resource. The Union Troop rosters reflect a number of former slaves. I've found several listed with Wisconsin units.
On another note, I have been trying to identify two of the four Confederate prisoners that were held in Camp Douglas. The four were Blacks in the Confederate Army and were released from Camp Douglas during the Civil War. Two went back South. The other two, the ones I'm trying to identify, stayed in Chicago. Camp Douglas was located near my house where I grew up in Chicago. The camp housed Confederate prisoners. Have you come across anything about it?

Sharp warns that it is close to collapse
by Nick Farrell on05 November 2012
- font size decrease font size increase font size
Needs to do something soon
Japanese troubled telly maker, Sharp, has warned that if it can't do something radical soon, its business could go the way of the dodo and T-Rex.
Despite being a major supplier of LCD displays to Apple and other manufacturers, the company has admitted that it can't survive in its current form. According to Computerworld the company said that there is "material doubt" about its ability to continue operating. The company thinks that it can cut costs and secure enough credit to survive and much of its plan for recovery is based on its IGZO technology for mobile displays. This technology uses less battery power than existing screens.
Sharp is also carrying out a restructuring plan in which it has reduced headcount, slashed employee salaries and mortgaged its buildings and factories. The company is booking a net loss of $5.6 billion for the year mostly to cover its restructuring costs. Its stock has been downgraded to junk status by ratings agencies and apparently its executives have been seen around Apple and Intel HQ's with their cloth caps in their hands looking for bail outs, or investments, depending on who you talk to.
Sharp President Takashi Okuda said the company is continuing its negotiations with Hon Hai, even though so far these have not been going that well. Sharp made a mistake in that it thought that the world wanted LCD panels for large-screen TVs. It is now trying to switch over to the booming market for tablets and smartphones.

Crafty toys that your baby will love
Homemade Toys For Babies

9 Homemade Toys for Toddlers and Preschool Boys
Cleaning Mildewed Stuffed Animals
Isn't it amazing that no matter how many fancy toys you buy or are given for your baby, they always prefer the box it came in, or something they find lying around the house?
So if you like to save money and enjoy making crafty things, have a look at these ideas:
Fancy Baby Bottles
Using an empty clear soft drink bottle, fill with any of the following items: chopped up pieces of kitchen sponge, marbles or clean pebbles, glitter, and tiny pieces of cut up tinfoil. Fill the bottle with clean water and either glue or cellotape the lid on tightly.
Rice Rattles
A handful of rice or pebbles inside a small plastic bottle or a container will make a nice gentle rattle. Secure the lid on tightly and remove from baby once they become capable of taking lids off.
Hand and Foot Rattles
A quick way to make a hand or foot rattle for a baby is to stitch a small existing rattle onto a bootie or mitten. Then place onto the baby to produce a rattling sound when they move.
Baby Ball
If you have some left over scraps of material, particularly in different textures, sew together to make a little ball and stuff with more scraps, and if you like insert a small bell inside before stitching up well.
Baby Books
Very first books for a newborn baby can be made in a concertina formation. Using a sheet of cardboard, cut to a size that is easy to handle. Fold into three or four equal sections and decorate each section with either bright painted colors or use cut out pictures from a magazine and stick onto the cardboard before covering with clear plastic such as cover-seal.
Stocking Scrunchie
To make one of these, insert some shiny crinkly wrapping paper into an old stocking or pantyhose, and tie at each end. You can make short ones, or long ones that can be tied to a pram or mobile gym for entertainment.
Lid Chains
First you'll need to start saving plastic lids from milk bottle tops, and soft drink bottles. Punching a little hole into the top of each with a knife, thread onto a piece of cord, or ribbon to create a chain of lids that rattle.
Baby Mobiles
Decorate a coat hanger with pieces of Christmas tinsel, strips of fabric, small soft toys, rattles, brightly colored cut-out pieces of cardboard in fish shapes, ribbons, strips of crepe paper, or anything you can find to make and interesting mobile. Hang over baby's cot safely out of reach.
If you purchase a plastic clothes airer in a circle shape with pegs attached (for drying underwear and socks), the things you hang on the mobile can be changed regularly to provide changing stimulation.
Play Gyms
A piece of smooth wood (i.e. a broom handle) can be made into a play gym that can be placed over the top of two chairs securely or hung somewhere for baby to play with. Attach things that are safe to be chewed and touched by short pieces of string so as to avoid baby getting tangled in them. Things like rattles and teething toys, stocking scrunchies, small soft toys, large plastic cotton reels, lids from hair spray cans, plastic spoons work well.

Rattle Cans
Using an empty formula or large coffee can, put in a handful of marbles, acorns, pebbles, or small stones, and then secure the lid on tightly. Cover with paper and decorate. A baby learning to crawl can rattle these around the floor.
Ball Poster
To make a simple poster toy for your baby, cut a tennis ball size hole in the lid of a cardboard box or a plastic two-liter ice cream container. Hinge the lid on by securing with masking tape at one side, and then provide some safe objects that aren't too small to be swallowed to post inside the box.
A formula or coffee can be covered with wallpaper decorated to become a drum. Provide a stick (i.e. chopstick or similar) to lightly beat on the drum. For an older child, you can attach a cord to be hung around the neck by drilling a hole in each end.
Sock Balls
To make a quick ball for a baby to practice gripping and throwing, simply roll a clean pair of socks into itself.
Play Mats
Using an old cloth nappy or small blanket as a base to start, sew on bright pieces of fabric in different textures and sizes to create a play mat. If you like attach a ribbon to one corner and tie into a bow, which can be pulled apart and re-tied, and you could attach a teething rattle or two for maximum entertainment.
Covered Boxes
A cereal box can be covered with plain paper to begin with, then add pictures of people's faces, flowers, and animals. Cover with plastic or cover-seal. Baby will enjoy turning the box over and over in their hands to see the pictures.
Stacking Toys
Save any empty lids you come across like shaving foam and hair spray lids, and then give to baby from sitting up age to practice stacking, nesting inside each other, and clapping together to make sounds.
editor's note: always be careful not to give a baby anything that could be dangerous. An item that could be safe for one child could be small enough to pose a choking hazard for another. You need to consider choking, strangling and other dangers with anything that you give your child.

Clinic July 8. Price of Beans
Disappointing. Girls' Aux
iliary Busy. Delight
ful Parties Given.
Everyone is urged to remember
the free clinic to be held here July
8th, and tell all about this, white and
colored, that in any way may be a
tubercular suspect. Dr. Cooper of the
State sanitorium, with two nurses,
will be here to make examinations.
The clinic will be held in a dwelling
on Edisto street, which Mr. Harry
Strother has offered for use. There
has been such an increase in tuber
culosis in the state that there are
great numbers that can not be taken
in for treatment at the sanitarium,
and the idea of the clinics which are
being held in each county, is'to show
the state the appalling number of pa
tients. The legislature contemplates
making larger appropriations for
health, and after reports of the clin
ics, no doubt all necessary funds will
be had, to provide proper place of
The farmers of this section that
have planted tobacco, are much en
couraged over the fine fields. The to
bacco of Mr. David Holmes is about
the finest that we have seen, so far.
The bean-growers have not realiz
ed the amount expected from this
product, for by the time the crates
had reached their final destination,
all profit seemed as far away as the
beans were. The soil produced great
quantities, and the farmers did not
get a fair deal somewhere.
Mrs. Nettie Jacobs and Miss Ella
Jacobs are spending a while in New,/
York. While chere the latter will

does not seem to miss any scarcely.
Mr. Alvin Lott has ordered 100
little chicks from a brooding house in
Michigan, and contemplates a small

The Girls' Auxiliary of the Baptist
church is doing a beautiful personal
service work this summer, having
planned to do something each week.
On last Thursday the auxiliary decid
ed to carry frozen cream to the sick
of the town, and each member made
a contribution toward this, which
was very small, one giving milk,
one flavoring, several furnishing
eggs, etc. Miss Louisa Watson is the
leader so she had the young people
meet at her home and the churn of'
delici?os cream was soon ready. It
was put in a car and with a number
of service boxes the happy crowd
left on their mission. At each home
where there was a sick one the car
would stop, and cream be carried in
by two of the girls. It is needless to
say that their efforts were appreciat
ed and their refreshments enjoyed.
Next week the auxiliary will meet
with Miss Agnes Browne and will
make candy, and visit the elderly peo
ple with it. The officers of the auxil
iary are: President, Miss Grace Tur
ner; vice-president, Miss Inez Rho
den; secretary, Miss Willie Waters;
treasurer, Miss Louise Jones.

Prisoner Returns to Complete
Saluda, June 22.-Avery Walton,
who is serving a six months' federal
sentence in the Saluda jail for vio
lation of the prohibition law, vo?un- [
tarily returned to the jail last week
after being gone since May 7?
He -broke jail on the night of -May j
7, leaving behind a note td the sher
iff stating that he was going tof&ra
some money for his family, who were
in need and would return whehihis
mission was accomplished. True; to
his promise he returned one hight
last week and awaking George Bai-nes
the jailer, asked to be admitted,
which request was granted. Walton
states that he left his family [ suffi
ciently stocked with provisions to-^ast
until he completes his term in jail.
The Illinois Lynching.
"Some were lynched,, some V;ere
burned when the mine was fired,-oth
ers were beaten to death and the ma
jority fell before the scores of bal- j
lets poured into them."
In fact, they were all "lynched,"
these non-union 'miners murdered in
Herrin, Illinois, and the Associated
Press dispatch would have been more
accurate if it had so said. A mob; of
5,000 men set upon other men, over
powered them and kilL - 40 or more
of them. The members of the mob
spy that they were right in killing
their "enemies." The members of the
mob who kill a negro always defend
their act, claiming merit for it. -J
The mob in Illinois burned the mine
structure and with it burned men-to -
death. Atrocities equal to that iave
been done lately in Texas and?; in
Georgia. It is not less cruel to burn
a white man than to burn a negro
the mob in Illinois burned white men.
In Illinois the mob butchered many
victims after capturing them-r-when
the non-union miners were 'jn>; the
power of the strikers.
Indeed, the tragedy in Herrin had
every dennir^g.mnrk o?_a-lynchk?*Kt"
differed from Southern lynchings only;
that no Southern lynching has ever
had so many victims.
What does Representative Dyer
think about it?
What is Representative Madden go
ing to do about it? The lynching oc
curred in Mr. Madden's state-just
as did the lynchings in East St. Louis
and Springfield some years ago, when
negroes were the victims.
That a victim is a worker and the
mob is composed of strikers surely
does not take the killing out of the
definition of mob law, lynch law. Will j
the Dyer bill, if passed, put an end
to affairs likt this in Herrin? If so, i
Representative Dyer has been pro-|
vided with an argument in its favor
more convincing and powerful than
those furnished by Texas, Georgia,
South Carolina and other Southern
states.-The State.

Interesting Letter From Re
John Jackson.
Dear Mr. Mims :
Since tomorrow is holiday, I si
try to snatch a few minutes from
regular program and write you a f
words.' Tomorrow is "Dragon Fe:
val." We heard something of dr
ons while in America, but they ?
actually here in China, as far as 1
Chinese are concerned .They can i
ture them perfectly, but when
leave their imagination, we cam
find the much dreaded dragon. I
not yet know the significance of t
feast day. All holidays in China,
think, are days for feasts. At a
rate, we are sometimes as glad to s
a holiday as the students are.
When you last heard from me
think I was in Shanghai. On the m
sion field we are subject to chanj
I was transferred to Soochow to :
a vacancy made by the death of o
of our young men in the academy
did not want to come here because
wanted to do church work. Howevi
I think I am soon to get at the thi:
for which my heart longs. For t
next year I am to be in country eva
gelistic work. I got a glimpse of
recently when I made a trip to t
country to baptize nineteen men. J
this place we had no ordained ma
I am helping in a little Sundi
school that meets at 2:30 p. m. La
Sunday there were fifty-two presen
Miss Bagby and I from the missio
aries, one woman from the Bib
school, and six students from Yat
made up the teaching staff. Amor
the fifty-two, there were tw,p i
three men, three babies and two w
men, the rest being small childre
Last year we had a school there bi
now we-have "not. To get the childre
to coirie we give them cards with pi
tures. If one child brings another, 1
gets two cards. Last Sunday one lar^
boy went up for his "special mei
tion" and extra card. When aske
whom he had brought, he held ont tl
little baby m his arms. Another Ii
tie fellow said he brought anothe
He was too little to bring him hin
self, so his big brother brought hil
up, a little child of a few months oh
Very few of the children can rea(
so we are reviving the old system o
teaching them to read, and at th
same time they are learning abou
the Bible, God-and Jesus. -
In our boy's high school here w
have 180 students, and the girls num
ber more than 100. There are als
four lower primary schools in ou
work in the city. This week we ar
having special services twice a da;
for the boys. The girls had thei
meeting last week and the genera
meeting in the church the week be
fore. There have been some conver
sions. One senior today said that hi
took Jesus as his Saviour and thei
prayed a good prayer. This was in ?
private meeting of only two beside!
the Holy Spirit.
Since coming to China there hav(
come into my life two events of vasl
importance. My transfer to Soochow
has meant much to me in a negative
way, as well as positively. The fad
that I had topart with my friends
and my work in Shanghai was one of
the hardest to face that I have met in
China. The other was the death of
my father last July. This was not
easy. We try to face such things be
fore we come out, and try to be ready
to meet any news like this in the spir
it of submission. But when it comes
so suddenly, it is hard, lonely and
trying. My friends in America and in
China wrote many letters of comfort
and consolation. I deeply appreciated
the sympathy of each. I also should
like to express my thanks and appre
ciation to all those who offered aid
of'all kinds to the family at home
during those hours of heart throbs
and anxieties.
One friend sent me the following
lines (borrowed) :
"One less at home; the charmed cir
cle broken, and dear face
Missed day by. day from its accus
tomed place,
But cleansed and saved and perfect
ed by grace ....
One more inTieaven.
One less at home; one voice of wel
come hushed and evermore.
One word of farewell spoken on the
Where parting comes not, one soul
landed more ....
One more in heaven.
One less at home! chill as the earth
born mist the thought would rise
And wrap our footsteps round and
dim our eyes,
But the bright sunbeam darteth
from the skies ....
One more in heaven.
One more at home; this, is not home,
where cramped in earthly mould
Our sight of Christ is dim, our love
is cold,
But there where face to face we
shall behold ....
Is home and heaven.
One less on earth! its pains, its sor
rows, and its toils to share;
One less the pilgrim's cross to bear;
One more the crown of ransomed
souls to wear
At home in heaven.
One more in heaven, another
thought to brighten cloudy days;
Another theme of thankfulness and
Another link on high our souls to
To home and heaven.
One more at home, that home where
separation cannot be,
That home where none are missed
Lord, Jesus, grant us all a place
with Thee,
At home in heaven."
Yours for the Kingdom,
Yates Academy, Soochow, China.

Candidates For State Office
Spoke Friday. Small At
tendance. Little In
terest Shown.
Although taxes are high, and many
people feel more keenly than ever*
before the expenses of the govern
ent, yet the masses of the people are
taking but little interest in public af
fairs. This was unmistakably shown,
by the small attendance and the lit
tle enthusiasm which was manifest
ad in the state campaign meeting here
Friday. However, it is probable th?t
most people realize that no one of
the state's official family, nor several
of them combined for that matter,
can make the tax burden lighter. Re
Fief along this line must come solely
from the general assembly..
The meeting was presided over by
County Chairman J. H. Cantelou and
notwithstanding the great number of
candidates and the nearly four hours
of speech making the order was per
fect, respectful attention being ac
corded every speaker. The appear
ance of two ladies in the campign
party was-an innovation which prob
ably caused the attendance to be as
large as it was, the audience number
ing about 250.
Thoa. G. McLeod.
The first candidate for governor to
speak was Mr. Thomas G. McLeod
of Bishopvlile. He referred to the
number of great men that Edgefield
bas produced in the past and paid a
tribute to Ex-Gov. John C. Sheppard
as one who has had a prominent
part in the making of : history for
Edgefield county. Mr. McLeod is a
lawyer, banker and farmer of Lee
county, his farming operations being
apon an extensive scale. Mr McLeod
said that our people are greatly de
pressed in these terrible days of re
construction. The war not only chang
ed the^ map of " Europe but made as
?reat changes in this country. Our
people must not only adopt a new
system of farming but must? give
more attention to marketing their
products. Rigid economy must be
practiced all along the line and taxes
must be lowered. Mr. McLeod show
ed by the following actual figures
that what our people, are suffering,
nost from is local taxatiqn, rather
than the state levy. The taxes paid
by the people of Edgefield for local
ind county purposes last year was
5106,824; for school purposes they
paid $54,838 and for state purposes
they paid $56,339. The schools of this
county received from the state $11,
913, leaving the net amount which,
?vas actually paid into the state treas
ury by the people of Edgefield last
year only $44,125. Thus it is shown
;hat of all the taxes for 1921, 77 per
cent was kept in the county and only
23 per cent went to the support of the
state government. Mr. McLeod stated
that if there are useless offices they
should be abolished.
He declared himself for the strict
enforcement of all laws on the stat
lte books. He said there can be no
iberty or freedom unless a man is
safe in his home. If elected, he
pledged himself to uphold the law<
Ee said that there are cases in which,
i pardon would be granted but he
ivill never be influenced by sympathy
)r anything else.
In conclusion he stated that he was
i candidate for the office of govern
>r because he has an ambition to
serve in that capacity. In the past he
served two years in the house of rep
resentatives, four years in the sen
ate and four years as lieutenant gov
?rnor and for the past 12 years
ie has devoted his time and atten
;ion to his private interests.
Ex-Gov. Colo L. Blease.
The second speaker among the can
lidates for governor was Ex-Gov.
Sole L. Blease who said he entered
;he race in response to appeals from
;he people, some of whom had never
roted for him before. Having served
is governor two terms, he has no
"urther personal ambition. Mr. Blease
:ondemned the establishment of what
;e termed useless offices in order to
provide some pet with a job. He stat
?d that the appropriation bill has in
:reased from less; than $2,000,000 to
nore than $6,000,0.00. Thousands of
people have been unable to pay their

Comments about Gibson ES Series Hard Case:
The best money can buy and a great price. There is nothing like a Gibson case the way it feels the way it smells and the way it protects the very finest intruments made today yesterday and tomorrow. I wouldnt settle for anything less and neither should you.
Comments about Gibson ES Series Hard Case:
If you plan to use your ES series guitar for gigging with frequent loading and unloading, there are probably cases that are more durable, as far as the exterior surface is concerned. (Molded hard plastic types). Overall quality for this case is good, but really no better than less expensive vinyl covered hardshell alternatives. The satin shroud is more of a nuisance than a benefit. The handle on the case I received was different from that shown on the GC website photos, but that did not bother me. Also, the interior lining was partially detached at the headstock end. I chose to repair it myself rather than return it. The case has no lock, or provision for a lock and the "brass" latches and hardware have a cheap look. I love my Gibson guitars, gig with them regularly, but I also realize that they are investments too. From that perspective, a real Gibson case is the only way to go.
Comments about Gibson ES Series Hard Case:
I bought this case for my beloved '74 ES 335 that has spent the last 30 years in a case that fit OK but wasn't made for it. This case works great and fits a 335 like a glove. The handle was a little different from the one pictured above but is still very functional. Overall you can't go wrong. There are cheaper cases available but if you have the bread and want the best fit for your Gibby 335, this is case to get. I presume it also fits a ES 330 and other similar sized Gibsons. Check with GC before buying if you're in doubt.

Comments about Gibson ES Series Hard Case:
Well made and very protective. Well balanced and comfortable handle. Fits my vintage Es 330 like s glove. A good investment that looks even better!

Howard Stern has criticized Simon Cowell for reportedly hiring Britney Spears for "The X Factor" as he fears the fragile star will be a "train wreck" on the show.
Cowell is rumored to have signed Spears as a judge on the show in a reported $15 million deal, and although he is yet to confirmed the news, his "America's Got Talent" star Stern is already angry about the singer's appointment.
Stern is worried Spears, who famously suffered numerous public meltdowns, won't be able to take the pressure of such a high-profile TV role and will have little to contribute.
He tells "Access Hollywood," "Britney still thinks the Earth is flat. Listen, I think we're going to tune in to see her, if she can sort of function through the thing. … As far as any real criticism, I think Simon and (fellow judge) L.A. Reid will be doing that. I think Britney is going to stand there and eat a lollipop and wear a sexy outfit.
"I don't anticipate great opinions out of her. I think she's going to sit there like J. Lo and (say), 'Oh, you're wonderful. You're terrific. Do you think I could get a perfume endorsement out of this? You think I could perform on the show?' I think that's what it's about. … I'll tune in to see what kind of train wreck she is, absolutely."

First, it reduced the Iranian leu stock below the level required to produce a nuclear device.
The Rumanian franc, or leu ("lion"), so called from the image it bore, came likewise from Craiova.
The use of tsew in the place of tseu (10,826) is confirmed by the authorities in Kang he; but does leu song really mean Spain?
Han Seang-tsze (about the same period as the last) was a pupil of leu Tung-pin.
He talked with leu, feeling more calm now, and had her tell him all she had seen, all she had heard of this terrible event.
The currency unit of the country is the leu (plural, lei), divided into 100 bani.
monetary unit of Romania, introduced 1867, literally "lion." Monetary names in the Balkans often translate as "lion" because Dutch gold coins stamped with lions circulated widely in the region in the 17c. and the word for "lion" came to be a word for "money" in some languages in the region.

Don Thomson Jr. will remember his win in the Dodge Dealers 200 at Cayuga Speedway Park for a very long time.
The five-time CASCAR Super Series champion led 77 laps on Saturday, including the final 14, to take the checkered flag in the first event in the newly formed NASCAR Canadian Tire Series.
It was a historical race for sure, but Thomson savoured the win for another reason. He dedicated the victory to his team owner and mentor John Fitzpatrick, who suffered serious injuries in a car accident in Florida in mid-April.
"He's been on my mind ever since the day of the accident night and day," Thomson admitted shortly after climbing out of his Home Hardware Chevrolet. "Truthfully, I was probably a lot more anxious this race. It was going through my head - 'I've got to pull this off for John.' It actually put a lot of pressure on me."
Fitzpatrick's condition has dramatically improved in the past week and Thomson said he expects him to make a full recovery.
"He's doing better," Thomson said. "He has 24-hour care - they're looking after him pretty good. All of us are looking after him. Now that he's getting a little bit better, we have a lot more to smile about at the shop."
Thomson said that he feels like he owes his entire racing career to his long-time partnership with Fitzpatrick.
"In 1997 when I met John, he gave me the biggest break of my race career," said Thomson, who won consecutive Eastern Series championships before stringing together five straight national championships from 2001 through 2005. "He gave me the tools and the equipment to go fast and to be successful. I never won any championships until I met John Fitzpatrick and we strung together seven in a row. I owe my whole race career to John Fitzpatrick."
Thomson started the race fourth and inherited the lead on the second lap when pole sitter D.J. Kennington pitted with a broken rear trailing arm. Thomson led 15 laps before coming in for adjustments on his car. He regained the lead on lap 122 and spent the next 65 laps battling with Ron Beauchamp Jr. for the lead. Thomson made the winning pass on lap 187 and held on for the win at his home track.
"Just winning a race at this race track is big for me," Thomson said. "I've always loved this race track. I used to come camping here as a kid and watch my dad race and said someday I want to race Cayuga Speedway in the big leagues. I have won races here, but it's been a long time. It's not just the NASCAR deal, just winning at what I call my home track - man, I'm speechless."
Mark Dilley started seventh and got stronger as the 200 lap race went on. He brought his Dodger Dealers machine home in second place.
"It was a tough, competitive race and it was a first race," Dilley said. "Considering everything, we're pretty happy with the night. I really would have loved winning this one."
Peter Gibbons pilots the Canadian Tire sponsored Chevy and also would have loved to take home the trophy in the inaugural event. He struggled with his car early, but continued to fine tune it throughout the race and rallied for a third place finish.
"We went into the pits right away because we knew we were in trouble," Gibbons said. "The guys changed a lot of stuff on the car and we just kept talking about what we needed to do to it. We were gambling on what we were going to do next. We drove our hearts out."
Many drivers struggled to get used to the new 11-inch Goodyear Eagles that the series uses. In the past, they ran on nine-inch tires and the change has had a big effect on the handling of the cars.
The new tire helped give the drivers a second groove at the top of the track, but they also had to get used to double file restarts as the race wound down.
"The procedures that they put into place for the restarts is going to be good racing for the fans, it's going to be great finishes, but it's going to give the drivers a lot of headaches," said Thomson, who outlasted 18 cautions during the race. "The funny thing about these tires - and maybe it was just my car - but every time you go to restart, it seems like you've got something different every time you take the green. It's something we're really going to have to learn."
Former open wheel racer Andrew Ranger was fourth in his debut and Derek Lynch rounded out the top five.
Thomson's teammate J.R. Fitzpatrick won the CASCAR Super Series championship last year as an 18-year-old. He started on the outside pole on Saturday, but dropped to the back of the field before the start of the race because of a qualifying penalty. He battled through a steering problem during the race and finished 13th. Thomson is sure that his team owner's son will rebound to championship form.
"I built John Ryan's car and if he wins, I'm just as proud of that as if I win," Thomson said. "He's the future of Fitzpatrick Motorsports and someday, I'll be the past."
But after pulling off a victory in the first event of the new season, Thomson might not be quite ready for the rocking chair yet.
"This is what it's all about," he said after accepting the trophy. "Right here, right now. I was saying that I was getting too old for this and I need to retire, but I feel pretty young right now. What a perfect day."
The series resumes on June 16 at Mosport International Raceway in Bowmanville, ON.

This is an unfairly behavior, to offer the Watches for 59.800 Yen "for Asians only", and want to sell them for more than 100% more to the rest of the world!
Also such "scary" story´s like "Secret Agent´s" and all that blah, blah, blah...
I am also interested in these Watches and I wanted to buy a few for my collection, but not for "ANY PRICE" - IT SMELLS LIKE "RIP OFF"
Hope that is not only my humble opinion!!!

What's the Latest?
The last fifty years have seen a steady progression of values in America. From civil rights to feminism to gay rights, more self-determination is consistently afforded to more people. We generally take this to represent an uptick in our moral courage, but something pernicious may be happening beneath the surface, says author and cultural critic Angus Kennedy. The more rights dolled out by the state, the smaller the space for moral discussion becomes. Rather than have discussions about what is right and wrong, actions now fall into two camps, says Kennedy: the arena of non-judgement and the arena of moral absolutes.
What's the Big Idea?
Kennedy offers a typically conservative critique of liberal society, defending individualism against moral truths ordained by the state or social movements. He favors enlightenment values and the free individual with agency over his choices; he critiques the modern psychology which sees humans as determined by their natural impulses. Rather than "the Other"--an ethical construct that favors non-judgement and assumes that other people are unknowable in their essence--Kennedy prefers "the Same", viewing people as kindred.
At base are two different definitions of freedom: freedom to follow our impulses and freedom from our impulses through reason. Which do you agree with most?

Yeah, I'm still banking on Theresa ending up pregnant. If she ends up slutting around, then we're gonna get a "who's the daddy" storyline.

Chinese Police, Garlic Told To Shape Up In Advance Of Olympics
With less than a year to go the Chinese government is doing everything they can to make Beijing the most hospitable place on earth. They've asked their citizens to stop spitting, and they're trying to make the city's air, well, breathable. Now they're on to reforming police behavior. Slack behavior is the target. Shooting the breeze and smoking while on shift are out. Proper monitoring and attentiveness is in.
Members of the public are being encouraged to report officers they see smoking, eating, or chatting on duty -- all of which are regarded as "harmful to the image of the police," the newspaper said.
Patrolmen will also be monitored on how they respond to requests for help from the public, along with the proper wearing of uniforms and badges, it said. The campaign will be focused on patrolmen in the six cities, including Beijing, that will host Olympic events.
All of the reforms are part of a large scale social re-engineering. The government feels that anything less than outstanding behavior by anybody will reflect poorly on the country as a whole. They're trying to change everyone, including the city's taxi drivers. They're being asked to learn English and stop sleeping in their cars. But more importantly, they're being asked to stop eating food with garlic. That's right - garlic is what will give China a bad name.
All of China's efforts will likely make for some reform, if for nothing else the 17 days that the world will be watching. But the garlic? That may be their biggest foe.
