Texas State Library and Archives Commission, Administrative Division:
An Inventory of Records at the Texas State Archives, 1958-1988
Agency History
The Texas State Library and Archives Commission began its long history as the National Library of Texas. In 1839, under President Mirabeau B. Lamar, the Third Congress appropriated $10,000 for books to be housed in the office of the Secretary of State. The first purchase of this appropriation was $300 paid to Ashbel Smith for his "Edinburgh Encyclopedia." During the remainder of the Republic period and until after the Civil War, an occasional appropriation was made for book purchases and document exchanges. Then, in 1866, the office of State Librarian was created with a salary of $1,000 a year. Robert Josselyn was appointed Librarian and catalogued the 5,427 books in the Library before being removed from office, along with the rest of the state government's officers, as an impediment to Reconstruction.
The Library remained under the Secretary of State until 1876, when it was transferred to the new Department of Insurance, Statistics, and History. One of the duties of the State Library in its new setting was to serve as a depository for historical materials. In 1881, the Capitol burned and the Library's 8,000 volumes were lost. Since most of the state's records were still in the custody of the creating agencies, or stored in vaults, the loss of archival material was not great. The Library began to move forward again in 1891, when the 22nd Legislature included in the appropriation, $1,500 for an Historical Clerk and $360 for a Librarian and Office Assistant. Governor James Hogg appointed Cadwell W. Raines as Historical Clerk. He began his duties May 5, 1891 and actively collected historical materials throughout the state. Although appropriations were reduced each biennium, in 1901 the State Library had 25,000 volumes.
The modern history of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission begins with the creation of the Texas Library and Historical Commission in 1909 by the 31st Legislature (House Bill 142, Regular Session) and is governed by Chapter 441 of the Government Code, V.T.C.A. (previously Vernon's Ann. Civ. St., Article 5434). The Commission was charged to control and administer the State Library whose functions would include historical work, legislative reference, and encouragement of library development in Texas. E. W. Winkler was appointed State Librarian at the Commission's first meeting, March 29, 1909.
Gradually, all the Library's functions were addressed. Historical work began with Raines in 1891. Legislative reference formally got under way in 1910 with the appointment of a Legislative Reference Librarian. In 1916, the Library offered twelve different travelling libraries to communities in Texas to concretely demonstrate the value of libraries. An effective county library law was first passed in 1917 and the first county library was established in 1920. In 1927, the position of Library Organizer was created by the Legislature. Books for the blind were available through the Library in 1919. An estimate of the Library's holdings in 1931 listed 88,800 bound volumes, 85,000 pamphlets, and 85,000 manuscripts. The Depression was a time of salary reductions, little book buying, and curtailed extension activity but, following World War II, the State Library entered a period of expansion -- increasing demands were placed on it by the public and by state government. The Library responded with greatly increased budget requests for new programs to meet these needs.
In 1956, the Archives Division was forced, because of the crowded conditions in the Capitol Complex, to move to a Quonset hut at Camp Hubbard. The Library and its friends had long been seeking a separate and appropriate building for the Archives and Library, and the move to the Quonset hut was a rallying point. Funds were appropriated in 1957 and the Library moved to the Lorenzo de Zavala Archives and Library Building in 1961.
The Texas State Library and Archives Commission is governed by the Library and Archives Commission (Vernon's Ann. Civ. St., Article 5434 (1925, originally created in 1909)). Commission members are appointed by the Governor, with concurrence of the Senate, to six-year overlapping terms. The Commission appoints the State Librarian and Director who serves as the executive officer of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission as well as the executive and administrative officer of the agency. Duties of the State Librarian and Director are to record the proceedings of the Commission and keep account of its financial transactions; approve expenditures made in connection with the State Library; have charge of the State Library and materials contained therein; demand and collect records of state agencies and officials not connected to their current duties; endeavor to collect manuscript records in the hands of private individuals; procure archives of the state which have been removed, including those found in Mexico and other states; preserve historical relics and memorabilia which come into possession of the State Library; give proper attention to the care and availability of the archives in custody of the State Library; make a biennial report to the Governor; and ascertain the condition of all public libraries in the state and report the results to the Commission. Additionally, he is authorized by law to transfer, dispose, or otherwise destroy records in his custody which have no permanent value.
The State Librarian and Director oversees the operations of the divisions in the State Library through which his duties and responsibilities are carried out. Divisions as of 1984 were Administration (includes offices of the State Librarian, Assistant State Librarian, and publications), Administrative Services (includes personnel, accounting, building services, purchasing, and a print shop), Archives (administers the permanently valuable official records of the state and related historical materials), Data Processing (provides computer operations and assistance to the divisions), Blind and Physically Handicapped (provides materials for blind and disabled patrons), Information Services (includes genealogy, reference, U.S. and Texas documents programs, and technical services), Library Development (works with public libraries to secure funding, etc.), Local Records (operates a depository program for county records), and Records Management (provides records management assistance to state agencies and ensures records are sent to the Archives for permanent storage or are disposed of due to a non-permanent value).
By 1995, the divisions had been condensed into Administrative Services, Automated Information Systems, the Talking Book Program (providing services to all disabled Texans), Archives and Information Services (combining the majority of the old programs of the Archives and the Information Services and managing Regional Historical Resource Depositories), Technical Services (responsible for acquisitions, cataloging, processing and binding of library materials), Statewide Library Development (to promote and improve Texas libraries), and State and Local Records Management. Since 1995, the Executive Office has been the unit incorporating the Public Information Office and the offices of the Assistant Librarian and the Director and Librarian.
The State Librarian through the years has served on various state boards and committees, sometimes appointed, sometimes as an ex-officio member, such as the Board of Library Examiners and the Sesquicentennial Commission; and s/he has been involved with legislation affecting public libraries in Texas, including the Library Systems Act and the Library Services and Construction Act. S/He has also worked to secure grant funding from several sources for public libraries and various programs within the State Library, such as the Blind and Physically Handicapped program. S/He has also served in varying capacities (committees, boards, etc.) with a number of library/historical groups, including the Texas Library Association, the Texas State Historical Association, the Society of American Archivists, and others. The Librarian also makes presentations to groups such as these, to smaller organizations (such as county-wide groups), and to public libraries.

Travis Barker is defending himself after an intense altercation with some members of the paparazzi over the weekend.
During the 8-minute video, posted on TMZ.com, Barker and his friends engage in a shouting match that almost turned physical after the paparazzi were filming and taking photos of the drummer with his children leaving a restaurant.
Cops were eventually called after the photographers accused members of the musician's entourage of stealing one of their cell phones, spitting in their face and slashing the tires on their car.
"Bottom line, take photos at red carpets. Take pics of hungry hollywood starlets and douche bags that are out at clubs and bars that like it," Travis posted on his Twitter page on Sunday following the incident. "Bottom line I don't. I'm not a socialite out begging for that kind of attention. I'm a family man out wit my kids. Don't get the 2 twisted."
However, what may have set the musician off was an encounter with a different paparazzo earlier in the day as he was entering the Marmalade Cafe at the Commons in Calabasas, Calif., while carrying his young daughter.
"I'll kick the s**t out of you bro," Barker says after taking a swipe at the camera. "If I didn't have my little girl in my hands…"
"What would you do?" the cameraman says, egging the rocker on.
"Give me an hour and I'll meet you here," an angered Barker replies as he makes his way into the restaurant.
After leaving the restaurant and spotting the second set of photographers filming he and his family, Barker and his friends quickly approach the group.
"We don't want no problems," the paparazzi tell the group.
"Where's your homeboy?" Barker angrily asks.
"I don't know that [expletive] cat. I don't like that [expletive] cat," the cameraman responds as Barker's friends chase him out of his car. "That dude's a piece of s**t."
Following the incidents, the Blink-182 drummer tried to defend himself on his Twitter page.
"When I'm out at breakfast at 8am in the morning the last thing i appreciate is some photographer threatening me 2 a fight while he's 3 deep," he wrote. "When i defend myself/my kids that don't make me a tough guy .I was outnumbered and threatened so i did what any man would… Paparazzi cried like young girls when it was no longer 3 of them against me and my kids. Didn't they remember threatening me an hr ago??"
As far as the 8-minute clip, which appears to show Barker and his group as the aggressors in the second incident, the rocker said the video doesn't tell the whole story.
"And of course all the footage these lames released to the press is one sided cause they edited it," he claimed.
And it appears the disdain for the photographers is something that runs in the family for Barker.
In an October 2009 clip posted on X-17 Online, Travis is spotted once again in Calabasas with is daughter and son, and his young son offers a message for the cameramen.
"Stop taking pictures! Stop it! I'm not kidding!" his young son yelled at the paparazzi, drawing a laugh from his dad.

On Chuck Hagel's inaugural visit to Israel as U.S. defense secretary, Syria surpassed Iran as the security threat of greatest urgency to the U.S.' closest Mideast ally. That quite unexpectedly gave the new Pentagon chief a temporary respite from the delicate duty of tempering Israeli warnings about attacking Iran to stop it from building a nuclear bomb.
Israeli leaders see Iran's nuclear ambitions as a threat to their country's very existence, given Tehran's vow to wipe it off the map. But Syria suddenly has emerged so prominently that it overshadowed Iran during Hagel's three days in Israel.
That explains, in part, why Hagel repeatedly stressed in public Israel's right to defend itself and to decide on its own, if necessary, whether and when to attack Iran. He gave less emphasis than usual by American officials to Washington's wish that diplomacy and sanctions be given more time to persuade Iran to change course.
Notably, Israel's new defense minister, Moshe Yaalon, said at a joint news conference with Hagel on Monday that he, too, thinks non-military means ought to be pursued further.
"By one way or another, the military nuclear project of Iran should be stopped," Yaalon said. "Having said that, we believe that the military option, which is well discussed, should be the last resort anyhow." He added, "There are other tools to be used and to be exhausted, whether it is diplomacy, economic sanctions, or even more support of the opposition in Iran."
Hagel seemed to sense slightly less urgency in the Israeli concern about Iran, although he by no means dismissed the problem. One year ago, Hagel's predecessor, Leon Panetta, was letting it be known that he feared Israel could attack Iran in a matter of weeks. Washington worries that such a strike could ignite a wider war in which it would be difficult for the U.S. to avoid getting involved.
That was before the Syrian civil war had reached the point of widespread concern that its illicit stockpiles of chemical weapons could pose a threat to Israel and other neighbors.
Jordan, too, is worried about transfers of Syrian chemical weapons. Hagel stopped briefly in Jordan Tuesday.
"The United States and Jordan share mutual concerns about the ongoing crisis in Syria and continue to consult closely on a number of issues including chemical weapons and the demands posed by the influx of Syrian refugees fleeing the violence," Pentagon press secretary George Little said after Hagel's meeting in Amman.
Little said the Pentagon has provided more than $70 million to Jordan this year to help secure its border and prevent the transfer of chemical weapons from Syria.
Hagel ended his day in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he met with Crown Prince Salman bin Abdulaziz al-Saud, who also serves as the Saudi defense minister. Little said they discussed a proposed sale of advanced U.S. missiles for Saudi F-15 fighters as well as mutual concerns about Iran's nuclear program and the violence in Syria.
The Israelis see immediate dangers in the Syrian civil war, not only in the threat along Israel's northeastern border but also in the grim possibility that Syrian chemical weapons could fall into the hands of extremists. Israel says each of those possibilities is a "red line" beyond which it would have to act.
The concern is that if President Bashar Assad is overthrown, any of the Islamic extremist groups trying to oust him could turn his extensive arsenal against Israel.
A senior Israeli military intelligence official said Tuesday that Assad has repeatedly used chemical weapons against insurgent groups. It was the first such public claim by Israel and appeared to increase pressure on Washington and other Western countries to intervene in Syria.
President Barack Obama has warned that the use of chemical weapons by Assad would be a "game changer." Little, the Pentagon press secretary, said Tuesday the U.S. government is still assessing reports of Syrian chemical weapons use, adding that such acts would be "entirely unacceptable." He did not elaborate on possible U.S. actions.
The White House said Tuesday the U.S. hasn't yet come to the conclusion that Assad has used chemical weapons even though close U.S. allies say he has.
In his assessment, Brig. Gen. Itai Brun, the head of research and analysis in Israeli military intelligence, told a security conference in Tel Aviv that Assad has used chemical weapons multiple times, including near Damascus, the capital, last month.
During Hagel's visit, Israeli leaders still emphasized the dangers of a nuclear-armed Iran _ as did Hagel. But to a degree not foreseen when Hagel arrived in Israel over the weekend, the threat posed by Syria's chemical weapons overshadowed Iran.
Hagel wrapped up his visit Tuesday by meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who greeted him with a brief but pointed caution about resolving the Iran problem. He complained of Iran arming terrorist groups with sophisticated weapons, and its "attempt to arm itself with nuclear weapons."
"This is a challenge that Israel cannot accept, and as you and President Obama have repeatedly said, Israel must be able to defend itself, by itself, against any threat," Netanyahu said.

Oasis were a guitar band from Manchester, England originally consisting of frontman Liam Gallagher, lead guitarist Noel Gallagher, guitarist Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs, bassist Paul McGuigan and drummer Tony McCarroll. The group, who underwent numerous line-up changes over the years, split in 2009.
Arthurs, McGuigan and McCarroll played together in the Manchester band Rain with singer Chris Hutton; eventually, they ousted Hutton and drafted in Liam Gallagher as a replacement. Gallagher persuaded his bandmates to change their name to Oasis, inspired by an Inspiral Carpets poster which advertised the band playing a show at the Oasis Leisure Centre in Swindon.
Shortly afterwards, Noel Gallagher went to watch the group play and, although not blown away, told them he would be willing to join if they made him chief songwriter. In 1993, they received a huge break when they were spotted by Creation Records boss Alan McGee at a gig at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut in Glasgow. McGee was so impressed with Oasis that he signed them to a deal with Creation.
Oasis's debut album, 'Definitely Maybe', was released in 1994. The LP became the fastest-selling debut album in UK chart history at that time and has since sold over eight million copies worldwide. It also received a 9/10 review in NME, who said: "Few other debut albums have captured a band at such a fully-realised aspect, or are capable of scorching the soul with so many jaw-jarringly great pop moments."
Oasis went on to achieve even greater mainstream success with their follow-up album, 'What's The Story (Morning Glory)?', released in 1995. It is currently the fourth-biggest selling album in UK history with over four million copies sold. Shortly before the LP's release Oasis had their first UK Number One single with 'Some Might Say'.
During this period, drummer McCarroll was replaced by Alan White. It was also during this time that Oasis's much-publicised rivalry with Blur began, culminating in the Battle Of Britpop: their single 'Roll With It' went head-to-head in the charts with Blur's 'Country House' and the event received mainstream news coverage. 'Country House' eventually outsold 'Roll With It' by 274,000 copies to 216,000.
The success of 'What's The Story…', which included the singles 'Wonderwall', 'Don't Look Back In Anger' and 'Champagne Supernova', led to Oasis playing sold-out back-to-back shows at Knebworth in 1996. They played to 500,000 people over two days, which was – at the time – a new record for an outdoor concert in the UK.
Despite their popularity, relationships within the group began to fray: Liam pulled out of a scheduled performance on 'MTV Unplugged' but turned up to watch from the crowd and heckle Noel. Weeks later, Noel left the band during their US tour. However he later reconciled with his bandmates to quash rumours the group were on the verge of splitting.
Oasis released their third album 'Be Here Now' in 1997. Despite mixed reviews, it became the fastest-selling album in British history after selling 696,000 copies in one week. In 1999, original members McGuigan and Bonehead left the band shortly before the release of Oasis's fifth album 'Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants' (2000). They were eventually replaced by Gem Archer and Andy Bell, who played on the band's sixth album 'Heathen Chemistry' (2002).
Oasis's next album, 'Don't Believe The Truth' (2005), saw a more democratic attitude to songwriting; while Noel had previously written almost all of the songs, 'Don't Believe The Truth' was the first LP to feature contributions from every band member. Oasis's next album, 'Dig Out Your Soul' (2008), would turn out to be their last; in 2009 Liam and Noel reportedly got into a fight backstage at a gig in which Liam allegedly broke Noel's guitar. Writing at the time of his departure, Noel said: "With some sadness and great relief… I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer."
Since the band's split, Noel has enjoyed solo success as Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, while the remaining members of Oasis have continued as the new band Beady Eye. Despite constant rumours that the band will reform in the future, Noel has repeatedly claimed he is not interested in reuniting with his former bandmates.

Overbay to the DL
Just when he was starting to feel better at the plate, Lyle Overbay gets struck on the right hand with a pitch from Chicago's John Danks. An X-ray revealed a fracture and Overbay is expected to miss 4-6 weeks as a result. In the meantime, Matt Stairs will probably get the bulk of the playing time at first, and the Jays will call someone up from Triple-A to help out.
Overbay, who has played in at least 157 games in each of the past three years, has never been on the DL in his career. But, he's an unfortunate member of the 2007 Toronto Blue Jays clubhouse.
Take a look at the injury woes that have plagued the Jays this season:
RHP Roy Halladay — DL stint in May after emergency appendectomy
3B Troy Glaus — DL stint in April with left heel issue. Troublesome left hammy.
LF Reed Johnson — On DL after back surgery. Possible return this month.
RHP Brandon League — On DL with shoulder issue. Possible return this month.
C Gregg Zaun — On DL with broken hand. Could return later this week.
1B Lyle Overbay — On DL with broken hand. Possibly out until mid-July.
RHP John Thomson — On DL with shoulder issue. No timetable announced.
RHP Victor Zambrano — On DL with forearm issue. No timetable announced.
LHP Gustavo Chacin — On DL with shoulder issue. No timetable announced.
LHP B.J. Ryan — On DL after elbow surgery. Out until 2008.
LHP Davis Romero — On DL after left shoulder surgery. Out until 2008.
CF Vernon Wells — Missed time earlier this year with flu symptoms.
C Jason Phillips — Missed time earlier this year with flu symptoms.
SS Royce Clayton — Missed time with left foot and back issues.
MLB.com's Jordan Bastian — Missed one game with a back injury.
Did I miss anything? At least there's no staph infections yet.
HE SAID IT: "It's almost comical when you start thinking about all the guys who have gone down. I've never seen anything like this." — Overbay

Reed and B.J. are the more devastating in my opionion. Even if Reed was struggling a little bit, it would move Alex Rios down in the line-up thus creating more RBI opportunities for the best Jay hitter so far this year.
Zauny's coming back soon, thankfully, because the fact of the matter is the jays need as much hitting as they can get untill Wells and Thomas start producing consistantly, this team wont put together a decent win streak/run.
I'd also like to add that this series with Tampa is a perfect opportunity to start a run. The Jays have their 2 best pitchers going and I expect Ohka to come away with a decent outing. I'm expecting a sweep and that in turn will put them above .500 which would be great.
Yea I also agree that this series with Tampa is perfect to start a winning streak. Especially with Halladay going up against someone who is making their major league debut.
A guys first outing is not usually a gift win. None of the Jays have seen him before and with the way they've been struggling to make adjustments lately, it could be a very lucky thing that the Jays have Halladay out there for it. They need a streak badly, and just when Overbay was getting his swing back he gets hurt. Hopefully Stairs can keep up the torrid pace and play some 1B in his absence!
They seem to have adjusted very well to Phillip Hughes
Jays will have trouble with Sonnanstine tonight if his nerves don't get to him.
The Jays do have problems with soft throwing lefties and that's what Sonnanstine is. However, when they get to Tampa's bullpen, they will have success.
I think Gibby did the right thing in delaying AJ's start until the 3rd game of the series-giving both AJ and Marcum another days rest.
I also hope he doesn't keep running AJ's pitch count up like he has in the last two outings-it's a long season and we need him healthy.
It'd be nice if Wells and Thomas started to pick it up the slack. We need them hitting to get on a serious run-hitting .150 in the last 7 games doesn't do it.
With Towers a supposed long middle reliever and only pitching 11 2/3 innings (with 9 earned runs) in May, what is the possibility the Jays are looking to trade him? I think he's lost a lot of trust from the fans, but at the same time he has the potential to be a great starter.
I completely agree with every point you made in that post.
I get alittle concerned when A.J. is left in a game that he's losing with a 110+ pitches. I understand the notion that he deserved to win a couple of those games but when the guy has had a history of arm trouble then in my opinion you don't leave him out there unless the bullpen is taxed. I, like qs, also think Gibby did the right thing in holding him back the extra day.
I still think Wells will snap out of it sooner or later. Thomas on the other hand i am growing concerned over. I realize that he got off to a slow start too last year, but this guy's another year older.
Like i've said before though I Hope Frank proves me wrong.
The Jays wouldn't get much if anything for Towers. His contract is too much for teams to swallow for a guy who probably doesn't belong in the majors and it expires at the end of the season. As for him having the potential of being a great starter, I just don't see it. He doesn't have great stuff and relies on pin point control to be effective and he hasn't demonstrated that he has that pinpoint control. He gets crushed when his control is off so I just don't see him being around too much longer.
I guess you were right gibby21. I guess I forgot about Jesse Litche's major league debut. But Halladay has no excuse giving up 7 runs in less than 4 innings.

Responses to "Ultimate Income Booster Review"
I wonder if I dont purchase the upsells, would I still be able to make money? I can build as many websites as I want with the software I own, or is the software a catch to buy the upsalles.
The only upsell is 20 done for you campaigns and one-on-one coaching, neither of which you need. My only problem is I get to the 3rd step and the software stops working. Have tried to contact support on a couple of emails and am still waiting a reply 2 days later – not looking good
Douglas 07. Jun, 2012 at 8:42 amHi the UIB stops working period it's that way and you will get several responses eventually but they are just copied and pasted solution messages from their support. They go something like this: Please un install your current version of .net, then install .net 2.0 and then reinstall the original .net. A variation od this will say "please unistall the present version of UIB and install the one supplied on the link provided". And finally they will send one that says "try our gold mine campaigns as this will work for you. The wording I used is not exactly the same but these are the things they will send to you and none of it works. Even when the UIB works it will find incorrect articles for your product like diarea remedies for hair loss products etc or just freeze at any phase or stage of the program running.Clearly the one shown on the video by Douglas and the one you get is not the same thing and he does not show that he makes his money on the "make money" mode, he does it setting up a blog.
Patrick 24. Jan, 2012 at 7:44 pmHow can you prmote this UIB? I have purchased and it is not generating any articles at all for 2 over months now. The developer knows that UIB v7 is not working at all but did not respose to when the UIB will be updated and workable It leave me and many others hanging in the air. So how can anyone purchse the UIB now and not to mention ahow can poele trust the Goldmine Camgaign that the developer is promoting?
I just saw the current price is 39.95 but I saw a review saying the UIB X software required is a monthly 67 dollars a month. Not sure what that means. Is there a monthly fee of 67 dollars to use the regular software or is UIB X an up sell?
Charles 12. Sep, 2011 at 12:50 am67 dollar/month is an upsell. You can still post to 27 directories with basic, but templates and ezine etc. marketing is an upsell.
Rachael 26. Aug, 2011 at 5:20 amI bought this product, read the info, joined all the article sites, and tried to use the software for the first time. it stalled. Over a dozen emails have passed, with the same advice given to me every time (which never works). I've asked for a refund on 6 occassions, they will not even acknowledge my request. My attempts so far to get a refund through clickbank have failed. if the program had ever successfully run i could review it, but it doesn't work and the money back guarnatee isn't worth the paper it's written on.
Looks like you are having the same problem I am. It keeps stopping when analyzing keywords Have sent a couple of emails and no reply yet. If you are having problems getting a refund, you can go to Clickbank and escalate the situation. They will step in and get the refund. Have had that problem before. The link should in the email you got your receipt in
Blair Fox 30. Aug, 2011 at 10:06 amYes I found the program stalls on analysing keywords also, to late for a refund unfortunately and no reply to email
David 16. Sep, 2011 at 5:17 ami bought the UIB because i was told that it would make money for me. i'm still waiting to see dollar one. i didn't know about the addedupsells and extras. i guess it's totally worthless without them, huh? You tell me.
Andrew 29. Sep, 2011 at 8:55 pmAnyone made 200 or even 100$ from the software without any up sales or non responsive support as per all similar related products out there? If it can make 100$ a day before any further effort heck I'll buy it. No guarantee that this will happen huh??
Andrew 29. Sep, 2011 at 8:59 pmI am repeating myself here, I will buy the softare if it cAn easily make a minimum of 100$ a day without much human input if someone out there has started making money the way I described in just a few days let me know.
I never get replies from the support on this software so I don't know what to make of it. How does it work without a blog or site?
bsolo1 25. Oct, 2011 at 4:55 pmbought it. downloaded it. error message said no content. sent three emails. no response to the first one. joke is on me for thinking that there was actually someone out there who tells the truth about software. all I can do is lol at myself.
big sexy 05. Nov, 2011 at 7:49 pmhey bigsexy,here i got the ultimateincomebooster and having the same problem NO money making.i got the 28 campaigns,and still NO money does this software even works?any one make money on the software yet?if you did tell me how you did it.thanks
Does anybody know what they are asking for in the UIB in the add websie section. They ask for a username and password. Is that the control panel username and password? Ted
To those that are not sure whether the UIB works I can guarantee you it will not. It will freeze at different stages of the "money making" sequence either when it'strying to find articles, or products to promote etc even if it works once or twice in the beginning. You will then be asked to 1. unistall your current version of .net, install version 2.0 and then the version you had on. 2. You will be given a link where you can install another version of the UIB and finally you will be asked to buy the gold diggers or gold mine campaigns and told this will work for you. Verdict: do not buy this product its a waste of time and money and is absolutely useless. Douglas shows he makes money from it using a blog he sets up and whether his UIB he claims to use is exactly like the one you buy remains to be seen but on the "make money" option or otherwise you will not make a cent. If you wish to make money with the UIB you will be more successful promoting the product if your conscience does not bother you.
JACQUELINE 10. Jul, 2012 at 9:37 pmWE PURCHASED THE UIB IN MARCH 2012 AND THE SHUTTING DOWN OF THE PROGRAM HAS TO DO, IT APPEARS, WITH BING. IF YOU UNCHECK THE BING BOX THE PROGRAM WILL NOT SHUT DOWN. HOWEVER, WE HAVE SENT 2 EMAILS TO DOUG WILLIAMS, BOTH WITH NO RESPONSE. WE ALSO PURCHASED THE 20 CAMPAIGN UPSELL AND HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO LOAD THEM INTO THE SYSTEM. IF ANYONE KNOWS, ANY INSTRUCTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED. ALSO, THE ARTICLES WILL ONLY POST TO BLOGGER (WE DO NOT HAVE ANY WORDPRESS BLOGS) AND HANGS UP OR FREEZES WHEN POSTING TO THE FIRST ARTICLE DIRECTORY; TIP BUS. IT APPEARS ARTICLES ARE NOT BEING POSTING TO THE REST OF THE 6 ONLY DIRECTORIES, OUT OF THE 23 LISTED. A LOT OF THE LISTED DIRECTORIES ARE OUT OF BUSINESS. ANY SUGGESTIONS OR COMMENTS AGAIN, WOULD BE APPRECIATED. FINALLY, THE MAKING MONEY BUTTON DOES NOTHING WHEN CLICKED. AND AGAIN, ANY SUGGESTIONS OR COMMENTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU.

DETROIT >> Brad Ausmus' time in the front office in San Diego allowed him the opportunity to figure out what he didn't want to do with his life.
It also allowed him to take care of some things that he did want to do in life, to cross some things off his bucket list.
One of those was to attend a game as a common fan at historic Wrigley Field, which turned 100 on Wednesday.
So he did.
"I went there last summer, sat in the bleachers. I always wanted to go sit in the bleachers," said the Tigers' first-year manager. "I went up and did what fans do: I had a couple beers, hot dog, watched the game. I was hoping I'd get a home run hit to me, so I could see if I could hit the infield."
After the game between the Cincinnati Reds and the Chicago Cubs, he went out for a drink in Wrigleyville.
Just a typical evening at the ballpark.
Did anyone recognize him as a former player?
"No. I didn't (get recognized). I blended right in," he said. "Everybody was drunk."
For a guy who'd been around the game all his life, and spent 18 seasons in the big leagues, it was still a relatively unique experience. He'd never really done anything like it before.
"You know when the last time I sat in the stands as a fan was? When I got suspended with the Tigers and sat in the stands at Yankee Stadium," Ausmus said of his June 1999 penance for bumping umpire Chuck Meriwether. "I had a one-game suspension, and my family are all from Connecticut, so they were down for the game. So I sat in the stands with my family for the Tiger-Yankee game."
Most of the rest of Ausmus' life has been spent in ballparks, working.
He still loved the venerable Wrigley, as a player.
"I love Wrigley Field. I have very good memories of Kerry Wood striking me out. I should say 'very sharp memories ...' I got my first grand slam there, off Kent Bottenfield," he said.
"I always loved going and playing at Wrigley. I really did. You know, the amenities aren't great for players. As you know, the clubhouse is small, batting cage is in right-center. But it's fun to play there."

States Siphon Gas Tax for Other Uses
Makes Them More Reliant on Federal Assistance for New Infrastructure
States are allotting a growing share of the funds they raise from gas taxes to debt service and spending unrelated to roads and bridges, making them more reliant on federal assistance to pay for new infrastructure.
The shrinking pot of state cash is one reason why governors increasingly are in a panic over a congressional impasse about replenishing the federal Highway Trust Fund. The federal fund, too, is running out of money and will cut disbursements to states in August if Congress doesn't intervene....

New York's tax receipts again came in lower than estimates last month, with the state...
New York's tax receipts again came in lower than estimates last month, with the state collecting a total of $163.4 million less than projected through November.
From the beginning of the fiscal year through November, New York collected a total of $39.2 billion. That's $702.4 million than what had originally been projected in April. (The estimates were revised downward last month.)
"It is clear that tax collection growth is not going to meet year-end expectations amid a continued slow economic recovery," DiNapoli said in a statement. "While the Division of the Budget is effectively managing cash flow, the upcoming budget proposal needs to include realistic projections for the rest of this year and the next so potential cash shortfalls can be addressed effectively."
The state's mid-year financial plan, released late last month, projected growth of 2.9 percent in tax collections this year compared to last. But receipts rose by just 0.4 percent through November, according to DiNapoli's report.

Something a bit different for today's guest post. I'm a derby girl in training and so I thought I'd get the lovely Juliet to explain the game to you all. Try and find out if there are any local teams near you, and if not - start one yourself! It's a wonderful sport and a great chance to make friends. And believe me, I am NOT a sporty person and I love it - Roller Derby for everyone! - Claire xo
Hi! My name is Juliet and I blog over at Ever So Juliet. Claire asked me to write an introduction to roller derby, and I was more than happy to oblige!
Roller derby is by far the hardest thing I have ever done. I absolutely hated sports at school, and went out of my way to avoid them, but one day in 2010 my lovely boyfriend bought us tickets to go to a local bout for our Valentine's date. Not sure what to expect I went along and was blown away by a group of passionate, fast skating, hard hitting women (and only a tiny part of that enthusiasm was fuelled by the drunken picnic we'd had earlier!). I signed up to the fresh meat programme the next day.
If you've never heard of derby, let me explain. Roller derby is an all-female, full contact sport played on quad skates. Players skate anti-clockwise around a track in a pack, where they try to get their Jammer (point scorer) past the opposing team's Blockers whilst also blocking the opposing Jammer. Phew. It's fast paced and very tactical with many rules to make sure the game is played safely and fairly.
This video sums up the basic concept very well!
I've been training with the Auld Reekie Roller Girls for over a year now and every practice is a challenge. When I first strapped on skates (plus obligatory knee and elbow pads, wrist guard, helmet and mouthguard!) I couldn't even stand up, and spent much of the two hours wobbling and falling over. Even after a month I was still looking like bambi on ice. But something kept making me come back to practice, pushing myself to hit a little harder and to get that little bit faster. It's been a challenge – I've strained muscles in my feet (meaning I had a limp for two months), missed many practices due to work or holidays, and had to keep my confidence up when newer skaters progressed at an incredible rate and made the team in no time.
It's scary and it's tough and it requires so much effort to keep on going. But you know what? It's absolutely worth it. My league are now expanding to include a rec team for people who love to skate but can't commit as much time as competitive skaters, which fits me perfectly.
Roller derby teams are cropping up all over the country – find one near you and go to watch a bout. Teams are run for the skaters, by the skaters, and are made up of every type of girl (and guy) you can imagine. When you first skate you'll hurt, and you'll ache. A lot. But it gets better - it'll stop hurting so much, you'll get stronger, and it feels amazing when things start to make sense. You'll also meet wonderful, crazy people and only refer to each other by derby nick names (I'm Miss Chief by the way. I think nothing of calling my friends "Moo", "Stitches" or "Slam" in public).
It's fast. It's scary. It's exhilarating. It's basically bloody brilliant.
(Oh, and if you've seen the film Whip It, let me just say in "real" derby you aren't allowed to punch anyone in the face!)

St. Paul and Networked Health Centers
An uncontrolled before and after design with baseline and follow-up cross sectional measurements will be used at the overall site level (St. Paul Hospital and the 8 associated HCs). There will be no control unit.
Other: Training of health workers in Basic Obstetric Emergency Care
Health workers at the eight health centers will be trained in maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) care, including all basic emergency obstetric and neonatal care (BEmONC) signal functions and other essential MNCH services. The training is a three week competency-based curriculum developed recently by the Ethiopian Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH).
Other: Hospital-health center networking system
A key intervention will be the creation of an effective, formalized networking system between Saint Paul Millennium Hospital and its eight satellite health centers in Addis Ababa. The networking system will create a conducive environment for the transfer of knowledge and skills between health care providers working at the hospital and in the health centers. Monthly review meetings will bring together staff from the hospital and health centers, and dedicated cell phones will be distributed to improve communication between the networked facilities.
Other: Post Basic Emergency Obstetric Training Mentorship
At Saint Paul Millennium Hospital and the health centers, providers who have undergone BEmONC training will undergo regular monthly mentorship visits for the first six months post training. The frequency of visits after six months will be adjusted based on the retention of BEmONC skills and provider performance
Other: Team-Based Supportive supervision
Saint Paul Hospital will use team-based models to provide supportive supervision to health centers in its network. Representatives of the supportive supervision teams may, in addition to Saint Paul Hospital employees, include representatives from the Addis Ababa Regional Health Bureau.
Other: Midwives exchange program
Saint Paul Millennium Hospital's maternity wards are often over-crowded and have to turn patients away. Health professionals incorrectly refer non-complicated deliveries, resulting in the occupation of beds that should be used for emergency deliveries. This action is attributed to inexperienced midwives at the health center level who are uncomfortable performing normal labor and delivery duties. In order to address this challenge, this project will establish an exchange program in which well-trained, experienced midwives from the hospitals will temporarily exchange places with less-experienced midwives in the health centers. This exchange would allow less-experienced midwives to work in the hospital environment, gaining the experience and confidence necessary to attend normal deliveries and identify appropriate referrals.
Other: Strengthening the referral network
Mechanisms and protocols for smooth communication between the health centers and the hospital have been developed, allowing health centers to utilize the hospital's ambulance, and implementing mechanisms for back referrals and feedback. To facilitate this work, we will support the use of dedicated cell phones in each of the eight networked facilities and at Saint Paul Millennium Hospital, and institute referral log books at both the referring and receiving institutions.
Other: Facility Checklists
Facility checklists will be used daily in each of the facilities to assess readiness for obstetric emergencies. Formally, the checklists will be used at the quarterly supportive supervision visits, to assess improvements over time.
Other: Emergency Drills
Non-punitive obstetric drills will provide multiple measurable indicators of quality maternal care, will illustrate opportunities for improving facility capabilities and provider care, and will allow providers to assess appropriate referral mechanisms and facility readiness. Incorporating emergency drills into current training and at all levels of health facilities will also give providers hands-on experience
- Improved provider skill levels [ Time Frame: One Year ]Provider skill will be measured through baseline and endline evaluations, mentoring reports, and the standardized evaluations used in the Basic Emergency Obstetric Care trainings.
- Improved provider self-efficacy [ Time Frame: One Year ]Improved provider confidence will be assessed at baseline and at endline with a standardized data collection instrument.
- Increased use of effective interventions for obstetric emergencies [ Time Frame: One Year ]Continuous data extraction from patient charts will be used to assess the appropriate treatment for obstetric emergencies over the study period. Additionally changes in time-to-treatment for post-partum hemorrhage and pre-eclampsia/eclampsia cases will also be assessed from patient charts.
- Improved standards of care for pregnant women [ Time Frame: One Year ]Continuous extraction from patient records throughout the study period will be used to assess the trends in the Standards of Care (SOC) for Ante-natal (ANC), and care during Labor and Delivery.
- Improved Referral Systems [ Time Frame: One Year ]
- Decreases the proportion of referrals made without proper prior communication to the receiving health facility
- Formalized feedback mechanisms between Saint Paul and the Health Centers
- Decreased number of inappropriate referrals from Health Centers to St. Paul
- Appropriate back-referrals from St. Paul to Health Centers
Data on Health Center/Hospital communication and referrals will be collected through phone logs, and referral sheets.
- Sustainable, continuous quality improvement cycles through supportive supervision [ Time Frame: One year ]Quarterly, a supportive supervision team will visit each of the health facilities involved in this study, and, using a checklist and a participatory approach, will identify areas to improve the quality of care provided. Each action item will will have a person assigned to it, and a plan to resolve the issue. Follow up supportive supervision visits will begin with an assessment of the previous visit's action plan, and then work to identify new areas for quality improvement. This process is iterative.

Replace "White Man" with "Western Civilization" and Kipling is as right today as he was in 1899
by Bill Levinson
Rudyard would be considered racist by today's perverse standards, and so what? The English-Speaking Nations of White Israelites have civilized the Gentile world, as prophesied. I'm gladly as racist as the ethnocentric Bible (with its focus on the family of Jacob) teaches me to be and wholeheartedly support Israel in the Isles – regardless if that's condemned by lesser peoples as "racist," "colonialism," "imperialistic," etc.
God save South Africans and raped Rhodesia, Zimbabwe ruins, from the primitive Gentiles.
Why invoke that liberal Jewish-pimped fraud, that adulterer, that plagiarizer Michael Luther King as if he is something worthy to emulate? He's a forged hero created by godless Jews like the terrorist Nelson Mandela – why aid and support their BIG LIE? That's a politically correct form of racism.

ACTU to present 'Sunday Matinee' on Nov. 10
Arts for the Community at Thomas University presents a "Sunday Matinee" on Sunday, Nov. 10, at 4 p.m. in the Flowers Foods Executive Classroom of Smith-Bonvillian Hall on the Thomas University Main Campus. The program will feature silent movies with live music and interludes from the era with Jim Amend, piano; Karl Barton, flute; and Rebecca Fadell, soprano.
"We picked some of the most iconic films of the era from the very early, futuristic trip to the moon with the most advanced special effects of all the films to one of the first films with the damsel in distress tied to the railroad tracks by the dastardly villain, complete with handlebar mustache twirling and an incredible chase scene," said Karl Barton, series coordinator.
Films include Georges Melies' 1902 hand colored version of "A Trip to the Moon," Mack Sennett's 1913 "Barney Oldfield's Race for a Life," and scenes from the 1923 "Safety Last!" with Harold Lloyd and 1925's "The Gold Rush" with Charile Chaplin.
"The advent of internet repositories for public domain music published before 1923 has also made it possible to find a lot of original photoplay music and selections from the era that will help bring the films to life," Barton continued. "Additionally, Dr. Amend has such a talent for picking music in response to what he sees, that the element of surprise will be sure to delight everyone."
The program is free and open to the public with a suggested donation of $5 per person. A reception will follow the performance. For additional information, visitwww.thomasu.edu/actu, call (229) 227-6964 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - A judge agreed Thursday to allow an eastern New Mexico rancher to sell his herd of allegedly emaciated cattle to a Texas buyer after a state agency seized livestock from his drought-stricken ranch.
A Tucumcari district attorney told the Albuquerque Journal (http://bit.ly/13oAnZU) Thursday that District Judge Albert Mitchell agreed to allow Double V Ranch owner Richard Evans to sell the herd to a buyer in Pampa, Texas. The move clears the way for the cattle to be trucked out of state, starting Monday, said 10th Judicial District Attorney Tim Rose.
Meanwhile, the New Mexico Livestock Board has started trucking some 270 cattle from the Double V Ranch south of Fort Sumner to a feed lot near Clayton.
New Mexico Livestock Board officials served a search warrant at the 180,000-acre ranch earlier this month and say they found at least 25 dead animals and others at risk of starving to death. The warrant also authorized the agency to remove cattle from the ranch.
Evans was charged with 25 counts of cruelty to animals.
At a hearing Thursday, Mitchell approved a plan, proposed by Evans, to sell the entire herd, Rose said. The judge's order also made the buyer responsible for all the costs involved in feeding and transporting the cattle, Rose said.
Rose said the size of the herd at the Double V Ranch may be as large as 1,700, exceeding earlier estimates of 1,000.
The plan approved Thursday also created a process for reimbursing the state Livestock Board for costs associated with feeding and transporting the cattle.
"Obviously, it wouldn't be the going rate for a healthy cow," he said. "These are obviously very thin cattle with health issues."
New Mexico is in its driest two-year period in nearly 120 years of record-keeping.
A number listed for Double V Ranch was a fax number. No other listing for Evans was found.

Media backgrounder for release: Canada Needs Public Registry of Buildings Containing Asbestos
18 October 2012
Toronto -
If homeowners know they have asbestos in their homes that needs to be removed, they should hire a professional contractor experienced in asbestos removal. Homeowners should NEVER attempt to remove the substance themselves.
If your home has asbestos, the best way to minimize risk of asbestos exposure is to avoid disturbing asbestos-based insulation in any way. If asbestos-based insulation is contained and not exposed to the home or interior environment, it poses very little risk.
If you know you have asbestos insulation in your attic, take these precautionary steps:
What to do if you suspect you have been exposed to asbestos
Asbestos-related illnesses are usually associated with frequent and prolonged exposure to asbestos. The time it takes to develop a disease from exposure to asbestos is usually long – up to decades. If you have concerns about exposure to asbestos you can take these steps:

quote:Originally posted by scenicrecI recently tried a ripper at Rutts Hut and it ruined me for hotdogs almost anywhere else! On your hotdog hunt you should check out Blackie's in Cheshire, CT. The dogs are decent, and the relish is outta sight- spicy and unusual, almost...cinnamon-y?
quote:Originally posted by Puff-BoyardiThis is what the place on Route 1 is like. Another great burger place is near Rutger's it was called The White Rose System. I forgot the highway it was on but the line was always out the door. One of the best burgers I have ever had.
quote:Originally posted by LouisRMr. John Fox:I am another hot dog fanatic from N.J. It was great to read your post. Finally a kindred spirit!I lived in N.J. in the 1950's, 60's, and 70's. Now I'm in New Orleans, where it is impossible to get a decent hot dog.The best I've ever had were served up in middle school in Cranford. Brilliant student that I was (not), I never inquired about them, and they have faded, sadly, into my history.Second best, however, were enjoyed frequently at Stewart's Root Beer stands in Clark, Plainfield and Roselle. They were deep fried and spectacular. They required no condiments and it would have been an insult to their flavor to add even mustard. I always ate them plain. I was very impressed by your post, and very surprised, also, that you did not mention Stewart's. Some of the outlets have ceased to exist, but I have heard there are still a few around, one in Rahway.Over the years, I have noticed, several great foods have declined in quality or disappeared altogether. I hope the same old quality I remember and miss so badly can still be found in Rahway and at the other Stewart's, but I don't know since I haven't been in N.J. for decades. I've heard about Ruts Hut, but have not yet tried a ripper! I could not believe you rated Ruts tops for deep fried dogs yet made no mention whatever of Stewart's.I also miss Taylor Pork Roll (have you tried that?) and have contacted Porkrollexpress.com, a business set up to send TPR to N.J. expatriates like me, who long, on occasion, to be back home there. The gals at Porkrollexpress.com were kind enough to research Stewarts on my behalf. They told me Stewart's used Thumann's, which I could not verify independently. I had them procure and obtain some Thumann's hot dogs, and I deep fried them at home. They were not bad, but were not the dogs I used to get at Stewart's. Perhaps Thumann does indeed produce a different "model" which Stewart's uses. I'd like to find out.I remember Jimmy Buffs italian hot dogs. Not bad, but I don't consider them to be in a league with Stewart's. They were a taste experience, but it was due to the way they were dressed, on those rolls, and with the potatos and other condiments. Stewart's were superb in and of themselves, just because of the fine hot dogs they were, and perhaps also because of the way they were cooked, and as I mentioned, they required no condiments. I wonder what Jimmy Buffs would taste like if they used Stewart's hot dogs. I don't even want to think about what a JB hot dog would taste like deep fried and on a plain bun without condiments.If you (or any who read this) have any idea how I can get Stewart's type hot dogs here in New Orleans, or any thoughts about any of the above, I'd like to hear from you at email@example.com for your fine post on this service.LouisR

The WIndMill is far superior in taste to the plain schickhaus griddler that Max's serves.WindMill Hot dogs are also available in Area Foodtowns, Markets and coming soon to Wegmans.John- please email me and I will send you a complimentary meal ticket at the WindMill Restaurants.
