Great for non brides too!
"I bought these shoes because I have been searching for a silver metallic (non-glittery) shoe for a while. Would have preferred a pump but had to grab these when I saw them. I know their for brides emphasized by the cheesy blue rhinestone underneath but they are a great way to fancy up my work outfit with no effort. Only complaint is they're a bit tight, but I'm hesitant to exchange for the 7.5 because I'm hoping the leather will stretch."

Massachusetts Secretary of Housing and Economic Development says he has a bold new plan to encourage businesses to move to western Massachusetts. The announcement was made at an annual event hosted by the Springfield Chamber of Commerce.
Nearly 600 people were in attendance at the event. Jeff Ciuffreda, the chamber's president, says this gathering recognizes bright spots in the region's sluggish economy.
"Sometimes we see about the layoffs or the cutbacks, but there are sixty businesses right here, and these are just the winners, that are doing very well. So, it's kind of an uplifting, I think that's what people come for, get a little bit of good news, and see that all is not gloom and doom."
State secretary of Housing and Economic Development Greg Bialecki said the state is starting several initiatives to grow the western Massachusetts economy, particularly in the Springfield area. Bialecki says the state will reach out to fifty Northeast businesses in the coming year, primarily financial and technology companies, in the hopes they will set up shop in the region.
"The objective of all these efforts is to demonstrate that working together, we can accelerate the growth of this region's economy, and put it firmly on the path to economic recovery. Governor Patrick and I believe this region has all the fundamentals to make that success happen."
Bialecki says the state will also work to promote advanced manufacturing, which he says could bring hundreds of jobs to western Massachusetts.

August 2008 - Facebook, the online social networking site, launched an application designed to promote renewable energy awareness and participation. Village Green Energy designed the Facebook application, named Green My Vino. Participating wineries will purchase renewable energy certificates (RECs) from Village Green Energy, based on milestone levels of "Green Power Minutes" Facebook users give to each other. Each Green Power Minute is roughly equivalent to the amount of electricity the average person uses in a minute. Once a new pre-determined milestone is reached by Facebook users, another participating winery buys enough RECs to offset its energy use.
In the first week of operation, Facebook users gave each other more than 17,000 Green Power Minutes in increments of one, five, and ten minutes, enough to prompt the first four participating wineries — Iron Horse Vineyards, Girard Winery, Windsor Vineyards, and Windsor Sonoma — to purchase RECs for 100 percent of the energy required to run their Napa Valley and Sonoma County, California operations for one year. The RECs are sourced from Mountain View II Wind Facility near Palm Springs, California and several solar arrays in Los Angeles.

cute and fun!
"I love this bag. It's edgy, fun, and just the right size! You can carry your essentials so it's more on the empty side and still be able to shove a light jacket in it. The magnetic closure works well, but sometimes I wish it had a zipper and more compartments. I do get a lot of compliments on it!"

Love it! Needs better stitching on handles, though
"So . . . I LOVE this bag. I get tons of compliments on it. The fringe is very playful and the size is just right. But, I've already gone through two of these, since the handles aren't stitched on well enough and the straps pulled off. However, I love the style so much I am about to buy my third bag and take it in to have the stitching reinforced."

Patent Models: Textile and Sewing Machines
For much of the nineteenth century, inventors submitted a model with their patent application to the United States Patent Office. The National Museum of American History's patent model collection began with the acquisition of 284 models from the Patent Office in June 1908, and reached more than 1,000 models by the end of that summer. In 1926, Congress decided to dispense with the stored collection of models and gave the Smithsonian Institution the opportunity to collect any models it wanted. Today, the Museum's collection exceeds 10,000 patent models dating from 1836 to 1910.
The Museum's Textile Collection contains over four thousand patent models. The collection includes many examples of carding machines, spinning machines, knitting machines, rope making machines, looms, baskets, carpets, fabrics, and sewing machines. Even the simple clothespin is well represented, with 41 patent models.
This sampling of patent models from the Textile Collection describes the two major groupings, textile machinery and sewing machines. In both groups, the examination of the models begins with the earliest of the inventions. In this early group of patent models, the textile machinery models date from 1837 to 1840, and the sewing machine models from 1842 to 1854.
For more information about the Museum's patent model collection, see Patent Model Index, Guide to the Collections of the National Museum of American History.

1838 Fairman's Patent Model of a Loom
- Description
- Power Loom Patent Model
- Patent No. 595, issued February 6, 1838
- Elijah Fairman of Stafford, Connecticut
- Fairman's improvements, consisting of an additional cam and a set of treadles, were applied to power looms in common use. His improvements allowed the harnesses to operate more smoothly and the warp to open, enabling the shuttle to pass more easily. The end result was that the loom was better suited to weaving either light or heavy fabrics. Six pages and three illustrations in Clinton Gilroy's 1844 book, The Art of Weaving, are spent in describing Fairman's patent. Gilroy commented that Fairman's loom would probably work fine for simple weaves, but for fancy patterned work, requiring 10 to 100 heddle frames, it would be totally impractical.

1852 Wilson's Patent Model of a Sewing Machine
- Description
- Sewing Machine Patent Model
- Patent No. 9,041, issued June 15, 1852
- Allen Benjamin Wilson of Watertown, Connecticut
- Allen B. Wilson was one of the most creative and innovative of the early inventors. Born in Willett, New York, in 1824, he was apprenticed at age sixteen as a cabinetmaker. Later in 1847, he moved to Adrian, Michigan, and worked as a journeyman cabinetmaker. It was here, far removed from New England and the efforts by other inventors, that he began to design a different sewing machine. After recovering from an illness, he moved back east to Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and began to perfect his new concept for a sewing machine.
- In 1850, Wilson developed a prototype for a reciprocating-shuttle machine. When the needle went through the cloth, it formed a loop below the seam. A shuttle that was pointed on both ends held a second thread that was passed through the loop and as the tension on the thread was tightened, a lockstitch was made. This shuttle could be moved both forward and backwards to form a stitch on both movements, unlike the shuttles of Hunt and Howe, which only created a stitch in one direction.
- Based on these same ideas, he made a second machine that he submitted to the U.S. Patent Office and was granted Patent No. 7,776 on November 12, 1850. Presumably, Wilson's skills as a cabinetmaker came into use with this model as it is almost entirely made out of wood and painted black to look like metal. Constructing a model out of wood, rather than metal, was a less expensive and easier way to build, requiring fewer specialized tools. On the underside of the metal raceway is stamped "Deall & Sons," evidence that Wilson used a machinist to fabricate this part.
- Fortunately, Wilson met Nathaniel Wheeler, partner of the firm of Warren and Woodruff of Watertown, Connecticut. He moved to Watertown to join in the partnership and to continue to perfect his sewing machine.
- In his second patent (Patent No. 8,296, issued August 12, 1851) Wilson developed the rotary hook and bobbin to replace the shuttle mechanism in his first patent (Patent No. 7776, issued November 12, 1850.) The rotary hook opened the loop of the needle thread, while a reciprocating bobbin carried the second thread through the loop to complete the lockstitch.
- In order to avoid patent litigation that the reciprocating bobbin might have caused, Wilson developed his third unique invention, the stationary bobbin (Patent No. 9,041, issued June 15, 1852.) In Wilson's rotary hook and stationary bobbin, the lockstitch was made by locking the needle thread with the bobbin thread by passing the needle thread loop under the bobbin. The driving shaft carried the circular rotary hook, which resulted in a revolutionary method of sewing.
- For his patent model, Wilson submitted a commercial Wheeler and Wilson sewing machine that had been manufactured the previous year. The evolution of his ideas from the simple wooden model to the successful manufactured machine beautifully illustrates the progress of his novel inventions.
- In 1853 the Wheeler and Wilson Manufacturing Company was organized to manufacture sewing machines based on Allen Wilson patents. In 1856, the company moved to Bridgeport, Connecticut, and became the largest and most successful manufacturer of sewing machines in the 1850s and 1860s.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Plans are underway for a miners memorial to commemorate those coal miners who lost their lives in the Crandall Canyon mine disaster.
Mike Mower, from the governor's office was in Huntington last week to help begin the process of a monument selection.
Mower said an anonymous donor has contributed $100,000 to get the ball rolling on the memorial. Mower and Huntington Mayor Hilary Gordon want everyone to know that is a beginning figure and any and all donations will be accepted from anyone wishing to contribute to the building of a memorial. There is also talk of a commemorative coin which could be minted and sold to help with the costs of the memorial.
It became clear at the onset of the meeting that two monuments will be constructed. The site chosen for the public memorial will be on SR-31 at the small rest area already in existence by the Huntington cemetery. There is also a need for a more private setting near Crandall Canyon.
Official approval will need to be gained for this site from the United States Forest Service and Sen. Robert Bennett's office volunteered to seek that approval.
The site along the Crandall Canyon will provide a more private, reflective location for family members to go and remember their loved ones.
Mower said, "Our goal today is to meet on an informal basis and get a feel for what we should do to immortalize the Crandall Canyon men. Governor Jon Huntsman wishes the monument to be a focal point to bring people together."
Huntington City owns the property where the rest area is and the group left the city hall to meet on site at the rest area. Mayor Gordon and Mower showed the spot where there is a small hill and would make a good location for the memorial.
Bob Murray from UtahAmerican Energy, Inc. has also pledged his monetary support for the monument construction.
After the on site meeting the group of family members and officials met back at the city hall for the artist presentations. Four artists were represented this day including Karen Templeton from Helper, Elise Lazar from Salt Lake, Gary Prazen from Price and Eldon Holmes from Huntington.
It was determined that the monument project would proceed as one project with two locations. All donations will go into a fund for the project as a whole.
Lazar was the first artist to present, she said it was an honor to be here and she was riveted and anguished by the events at Crandall Canyon. She recently returned from a trip to Poland where she saw a monument the community had put together with shards of tombstones from those who had lost their lives in the concentration camps.
Lazar said she is a community artist and would like to involve the community in the monument construction process. She has worked with the school children in Salt Lake where they used recycled ornaments to create an art project. She also worked in Oakland, Calif. with at risk kids to create a mosaic, tile wall. She works mainly in glass, ceramic and stone tile mediums. She helped the people of Gunnison create a wall as part of a community project. She likes to involve the community in the creation process and getting the monument completed. She envisioned a monument which is a sacred space. It would stand 8 feet tall with sloping sides. It would be of natural stone and black stone. The names of the miners would be chiseled on the stone along with the names of the rescuers. She envisioned the grout of the monument being made with actual coal and places in the wall where messages could be inserted into the rock. In Jerusalem there is a wailing wall where messages and prayers are inserted into the wall. Lazar said copper tubes could be placed throughout the wall in Huntington for the insertion of messages which would then fall inside the monument itself. She said a white gravel walkway would lead up to the monument.
Templeton was the next artist to present she said she is a portrait sculptor. Her idea was a large monument with a concrete base and a bronze panel. Along the bronze panel would be portrait sculptures of each of the miners who died. These sculptures would be touchable and put a face to the names of the miners. Templeton also proposed a commemorative medallion which could be used as a fund raiser for the monument and also to create a yearly award to be given for mine safety and those involved in making mines a safer place to work.
Prazen said he has specialized in mining sculptures and recently completed the soldier for the new Veteran's memorial in Castle Dale. He showed sketches he created for his idea for the monument. He proposed a large granite monument with a bronze plaque explaining what happened at Crandall Canyon. The names of all the miners would be listed on the monument. On the top of the monument would be a large modern day coal miner made from bronze.
Holmes shared his ideas for a monument. The bronze and granite sculpture would have a fallen miner on the ground in his mining clothes and then subsequent sculptures would show the miner arising and then at the end of the monument would transition into an angel without earthly bonds. Each individual miner would be full or half life size and the entire monument would be approximately 28 feet long and 12 feet high. The miners names would be on the back of the monument.
Mower said all of the presentations were great ideas. He instructed the artists to compile some proposals with costs and a timeline for completion to be presented at the next meeting on Nov. 30.
The contract will be awarded over the winter months.
It was also mentioned that artists can work together on projects and it will be determined if this is possible.
David Litvin of the Utah Mining Association mentioned previously they would like to make a donation for the memorial also.
Another fund raising suggestion was to sell bricks with the name of the purchaser on the brick and going into the monument in some form.
Mower said that state money is not being used for the monument, so the project doesn't need to go out for bids and doesn't need to be opened up for statewide proposals or anything of that kind.
Sheriff LaMar Guymon said he believes the community will want to be involved in the project and will make donations. Any donations for the project can be brought to Huntington city hall.
Mower said the governor wants the memorial project to be based on what the families want and how they wish to remember their loved ones.
Mower said as they work together on the project he knows there will be many opinions. The proposals will be voted on to reach a consensus. Each family will receive one vote, the governor one vote and Huntington City will have one vote.

Commissioner Chris Cerf and the New Jersey Department of Education (DOE) continue to push for radical revisions of the state's special education regulations. Educators, parents and special education advocacy organizations who have studied the proposal are sounding the alarm, noting that the changes would harm special education students and make special education teachers' and guidance counselors' jobs more difficult.
Another proposed change to the regulations would allow districts to take 90 days to evaluate and properly place incoming special education students, a process that must be completed in 30 days under current regulations. Additionally, districts would be allowed to seek waivers to indefinitely disregard the class-size restrictions in the special education code, without even being required to inform parents ahead of time that they intend to do so. Both changes would deprive students of the opportunity to learn in the environment deemed most appropriate for their success.
NJEA president Barbara Keshishian issued the following statement, urging the DOE not to rush forward with its ill-conceived restructuring of special education regulations.
"Every child has a right to a thorough and efficient public education. For students with special needs, that means we need to work even harder to provide the best environment and the support necessary for them to succeed. Under the guise of providing flexibility to districts, these regulations will dramatically diminish the quality of education students receive.
"Special education case management is an important and time-consuming task. Effective case management requires thoroughly understanding each student's specific needs and ensuring those needs are met appropriately. It's a hard enough job for dedicated child study team members. Pushing that workload onto already overburdened special education teachers and guidance counselors ensures that they will have less time for their students and will lack the time necessary to adequately fulfill their responsibilities as case managers. It's simple: if these regulation changes go through, teachers' and counselors' attention will be even further divided and students will suffer.
"The other proposed changes will have similar negative effects. It is unconscionable to allow districts to put off providing an appropriate placement and needed services for 90 days. No student already facing exceptional challenges can afford to lose a third of a school year waiting for the district to act. And allowing districts to obtain waivers to indefinitely disregard class-size restrictions contained in the special education code is inappropriate as well. Special education regulations and IEPs are intended to ensure that students get the services they need, not just the ones the district finds convenient. They certainly aren't suggestions for the district to follow or ignore on a whim.
"The child's needs must trump the district's desire for additional flexibility. These misguided proposals put the convenience of districts first. That is unacceptable.
"Gov. Christie recently signed legislation that calls for the formation of a Special Education Task Force. That group should be allowed to meet and make recommendations for ways to improve how we deliver special education services so that districts can operate more efficiently without harming children. The current proposals are poorly conceived, will hurt students and should not be allowed to move forward. Instead of rushing to make changes with devastating consequences for children, let the task force do its job."

Gingerbread Graham Crackers
This Easy-Peasy Gingerbread Graham Crackers recipe was inspired by Bette Hagman. She has a wonderful series of Books called the "Gluten Free Gourmet". Im a VERY big fan.
These Easy-Peasy Gingerbread Graham Crackers are my twist of her awesome recipe.
Easy-Peasy Gingerbread Graham Crackers
- 3/4 cup Garfava Flour
- 1/4 cup Sorghum Flour
- 1 cup Cornstarch (Or Arrowroot for corn free.)
- 2/3 cup Tapioca Flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum (Or Guar Gum for corn free)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon Allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground Ginger
- 2 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 3/4 cup Earth Balance Buttery Sticks melted (Or Melted Coconut OIl for corn free)
- 1/4 cup Molasses (Blackstrap preferred)
- 1 cup Sucanat Sugar ( or Brown sugar may be used)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 2 tablespoons Water
- In a large bowl mix together the flours, cornstarch, xanthan gum, salt, spices and baking powder.
- In a seperate smaller bowl mix together the melted earth balance butter, molasses, sucanat, vanilla extract, and water.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix well into a thick dough. Cover and refrigerate for one hour.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray 2 large baking sheets with non-stick spray.
- Divide the chilled dough in half. Place one half on the center of the baking sheet. If needed mist the top of the mound with nonstick spray to prevent sticking as you use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to 1/8 inches thick.
- Using a Pizza or Pastry cutter trim the edges of the dough to create a rectangular shape. Then cut dough to create 3 inch squares. (Or larger or smaller- depending on your preference) Prick each square with a fork 5-6 times.
- Place onto top shelf of oven. Set timer for 25 minutes. When the timer only has 5 minutes left- carefully remove the 4 corner pieces of the formation as they WILL burn otherwise.
- Remove crackers and allow to cool. They will come out soft- as they dry they will become crisp and crunchy! DO NOT leave crackers in the oven for more than 25 minutes- again they WILL burn.
- Prepare and cook the second tray in the same manner. Cook one tray at a time at a time to prevent burning.
- Store in an airtight bag- they will last several weeks.

Repeated Drunken Demands for Three-Way Now an Arrestable Offense
Welcome to Barack Hussein Obama's America, folks, where you can be arrested for the so-called "crime" of calling a couple you sort of know and repeatedly demanding that they have a threesome with you. Whatever happened to the constitution, I ask you!
Apparent MD 20/20 aficionado Anna Bambino, of Waterbury, Connecticut, just wanted to exercise her right to insist on a threesome with some acquaintances, which is guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence or the Articles of Confederation or one of those. But noooooooooo—look at "big government" in action:
Bambino called the couple's home about a half-dozen times, police said. Bambino, who is acquainted with the Monroe woman through a mutual friend, in each of the calls suggested the woman and her husband have three-way sex with her, police said
After officers confronted Bambino, she confessed to making the calls, police said. However, she claimed to have been intoxicated at the time, according to the police report.
What would Thomas Jefferson say?? Why is the liberal media ignoring this story??!
Update: In our rush to report on this outrage, we (and our tipster) neglected to check the date on the story—December 2009. Needless to say, this story is no longer breaking.

The BLM, a leader in our nation's wildland fire management efforts, undertakes a broad range of activities to safely protect the public, the natural landscape, wildlife habitat and recreational areas for our country's citizens. The program includes fire suppression, preparedness, fuels management, prevention and education, community assistance and protection, and perhaps most significant, safety. The BLM meets these challenges by fielding highly trained and skilled professional firefighters and managers. Reducing the risk and consequence of wildland fires continues to grow in importance; however, suppression operations and safety continue to be the core of the overall fire program.

The Green River Lady Pirates played their last game of the season, a non-region contest against Altamont, and easily won that game 64-28.
They now travel to Richfield this Wednesday for their State 1-A tournament opener against the winner of a play-in game between Duchesne and Salt Lake Lutheran. Game time is set for 7 p.m.
The Pirates had an easy time as they broke to a first quarter lead of 19-3 and never looked back and were never threatened by their opponent.
They lengthened their lead to 38-12 at the half as the Pirate defense kept any effectiveness by the Altamont team from ever really getting started.
Four Pirates finished the game in double figures as their balanced scoring capabilities could keep a lot of opponents in the tournament from staying with the Pirates in their quest for a championship. Adriana Cordova led the team with 17 points. Heidi Vetere finished the game with 15 points. Charle Vetere scored 13 points and Brandi Webster finished with 11 points. Also scoring in the game were McKenzie and Lindsey Spadafora, each with 4 points.
The tournament is held at the Sevier Valley Center. The easiest way to get there is to take the second Richfield exit and work your way back north along the east frontage road. When they win Wednesday, they play at 4 p.m Thursday.
Good luck Lady Pirates.

Chamber of Commerce Awards
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Blaine Calkins Wetaskiwin, AB
Mr. Speaker, on Friday night I had the honour of attending the Chamber of Commerce awards banquet recognizing the outstanding business leaders from the great community of Rocky Mountain House.
It is often said that small business is the backbone of the Canadian economy. The heart and soul of small businesses are the owners and employees, whose dedication and commitment provide jobs and services in communities from coast to coast to coast.
Our government knows the demands of running a business in the 21st century. That is why we are creating a competitive economic environment that supports innovation, rewards success and reduces unnecessary regulations and red tape.
Budget 2008 responded to requests from groups such as the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, whose members wanted to see an end to the big surpluses in the employment insurance fund and the use of these surpluses for unrelated programs.
I know all members will join me in congratulating the Rocky Mountain House Chamber of Commerce award recipients: Lorrie McMeekin; Francis Baich; Wesley Eror; James Brady; Challand Pipeline; and Civic Tire and Battery.
I thank them for the valuable contribution they make to life in and around Rocky Mountain House.
Kidney Health Month

Gurbax Malhi Bramalea—Gore—Malton, ON
Mr. Speaker, this is Kidney Health Month in Canada, and tomorrow, March 13, is World Kidney Day.
While ongoing research and new treatments have greatly improved the lives of those affected by kidney disease, there is still much work to be done.
Two million Canadians have or may develop kidney disease. Each day, 14 Canadians learn that their kidneys have failed. Seventy per cent of Canadians waiting for an organ transplant are in need of a kidney.
The Kidney Foundation of Canada funds almost one-third of kidney research projects in Canada. I wish to commend the Kidney Foundation for its role in supporting this important research and speaking up for Canadians living with kidney disease.
Michel Gouin

Pauline Picard Drummond, QC
Mr. Speaker, ultramarathoner Michel Gouin, of Drummondville, literally crushed a world record, running more than 1,000 km in 11 days on a treadmill. He shattered the previous record, set in February 2007 by a German, Peter Bartel, who ran the same distance in 14 days and 11 hours. Michel Gouin's performance shaved nearly 66 hours off the record.
Around 30 volunteers worked with him around the clock over the course of his run. In order for the record to be authenticated, Michel Gouin, 47, was always in the presence of two witnesses.
Michel's next challenge will be to take part in a 10-day race through the streets of New York City, an international competition that will be held from April 23 to May 3 featuring the 70 best long-distance runners in the world.
On behalf of the people of Drummondville, I would like to congratulate Michel Gouin. We hope to see this record soon in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Olivia Chow Trinity—Spadina, ON
Mr. Speaker, every day more stories emerge about the Conservative government's heartless immigration practices.
First, a hard-working father and husband is being deported even though his Canadian wife is sponsoring him.
A gay man was deported last week to Malaysia, where he is likely to face torture and discrimination.
A disabled Canadian boy's family faces deportation to Uruguay, where he will not get the care and education he desperately needs.
Today we learn that an Israeli woman who suffered physical and mental abuse is being deported. As a result, her children will be cruelly separated from their mother and may be at risk.
Instead of focusing her energy to remove the almost 2,000 known criminals under deportation, the minister only seems to go after the most vulnerable.
This heartless Conservative government cannot be trusted. Why is the minister not intervening in clearly humanitarian cases and making Canada's immigration system fair for everyday families?
Canadian Museum for Human Rights
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Joy Smith Kildonan—St. Paul, MB
Mr. Speaker, one week ago today, the Senate passed Bill C-42, An Act to amend the Museums Act. Later this week, Bill C-42 will receive royal assent.
This bill will establish the Canadian Museum for Human Rights as a national museum in my home province of Manitoba, the first new national museum since 1967.
The Canadian Museum for Human Rights will help Canadians, especially our youth, understand the sacrifices the people of our nation made to build this country.
I want to thank the Prime Minister of Canada for his vision for my province of Manitoba. This is the first time a national museum has been located outside the national capital region.
I also want to thank Minister of Canadian Heritage for introducing legislation to create the Canadian Museum for Human Rights.
Finally, I want to congratulate all those who worked so hard to bring this museum to fruition, especially Gail Asper and the Asper Foundation. What a momentous day for all Canadians.
Fay Bland

Francis Scarpaleggia Lac-Saint-Louis, QC
Mr. Speaker, the West Island of Montreal recently lost one of its most caring and dedicated advocates for the mentally disabled.
Fay Bland was the visionary founder of AVATIL, a non-profit organization that promotes independent living for the mentally disabled, and was the recipient of many awards, including the Governor General's Caring Canadian Award for her decades of volunteer work.
Throughout her life, Fay was an inspiration to all who knew her. She had a rare gift for motivating people to get things done. Fay saw things that needed to change and then worked to change them.
In the 1950s, Fay realized that the West Island's services for children with intellectual disabilities were woefully inadequate. So with an audacity of spirit that one can only say was typical of Fay, she set out to ensure our community offered more and better services for these children.
Fay's legacy will live on in the institutions she helped create and foster and in the lives that are now better because of her kindness.
Post-Secondary Education
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
David Sweet Ancaster—Dundas—Flamborough—Westdale, ON
Mr. Speaker, in November 2006 the government presented "Advantage Canada", our national economic plan.
One of the objectives set out in "Advantage Canada" is for Canada to have the best educated, most skilled and most flexible labour force in the world.
This is good news for the riding I represent and for all of Hamilton, which includes four post-secondary educational institutions: McMaster University, McMaster Divinity College, Mohawk College and Redeemer University College.
Since being in government, we have increased transfer support to the provinces for post-secondary education by $800 million per year, starting this year, with a guaranteed increase of 3% per year until 2014.
Our contribution to post-secondary education through the Canada social transfer program totals $3.2 billion in this fiscal year alone. As well, we are committing $123 million over four years, starting next year, to streamline and modernize the Canada student loans program.
As McMaster University President Peter George said: "...the strong signals in the federal budget about the government's commitment to supporting universities and the important role they play in Canada's economic prosperity were welcome indeed".
Quebec Declaration
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Vivian Barbot Papineau, QC
Mr. Speaker, together with numerous representatives of Quebec's civil society and international partners, the members of the Bloc Québécois have expressed support for the Quebec association of international cooperation organizations' manifesto, Déclaration du Québec: Responsables aussi du monde.
This declaration expresses our shared vision for international development and solidarity. Among other things, we want to build a world based on the law and individual and group rights, a world where men and women are truly equal, a world that condemns war and military action as pathways to conflict resolution, a world where access to basic education for all people, male or female, is a priority.
The Bloc Québécois invites all parliamentarians to sign the Déclaration du Québec: Responsables aussi du monde.

James Moore Port Moody—Westwood—Port Coquitlam, BC
Mr. Speaker, today marks the two-year countdown to the Vancouver 2010 Paralympic Winter Games.
From March 12 to 21, 2010, the world's best athletes with a disability will come to Canada to compete. In 64 medal competitions, they will inspire us with their determination, their drive to excel and their physical ability.
The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games will be Canada's games: one festival, two events and 60 days of celebration. They will be an inspiring and inclusive celebration and a proud moment for Canada as we show the world our very best.
The Vancouver 2010 Winter Games will be "Canada's games"—one festival, two events and 60 days of celebration. The games will unite and inspire many, and will be a very proud moment for Canada, as we show off our best to the entire world.

Maurizio Bevilacqua Vaughan, ON
Mr. Speaker, Mahatma Gandhi once said, "You must be the change you want to see in the world".
Today I would like to recognize the students and teachers of Maple High School for their campaign and support for the people of Darfur.
I would like to thank the STAND group and, in particular, a determined student leader, Nagina Shahsamand, and an exceptional educator, Michelle Hadida, for their commitment to this just cause that requires immediate international attention.
The men, women and children of Darfur live the painful and harsh reality of brutal murders, destruction of villages, the spread of deadly diseases and the displacement of millions of individuals.
The Maple High School community is giving a voice to the voiceless. Its perseverance and dedication to the Darfur awareness campaign has drawn the support of hundreds of students who want the Canadian government to act in concert with international partners to put an end to this human tragedy. As they stated, "Every minute wasted is another life lost".
Bloc Québécois
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Jacques Gourde Lotbinière—Chutes-de-la-Chaudière, QC
Mr. Speaker, I am always surprised to hear Bloc members quote a Quebec government minister or the leader of the official opposition in Quebec City. After all, their former Bloc colleague from Lévis said:
Personally, I am not interested in speaking on behalf of Mario Dumont or Jean Charest here in the federal Parliament.
The Bloc Québécois is once again trying to convince people that our government's leadership in the climate change file is disadvantageous for Quebec. Yet, on February 8, 2007, the Bloc leader said:
For a number of years, Quebec has asked the federal government for $328 million, to enable Quebec to implement the Kyoto protocol within its borders.
I am very pleased to see that, even according to the separatists, we, Conservative members from Quebec, responded with $350 million for Quebec to reduce its emissions within its borders.
The Bloc Québécois will be taken to task for its powerlessness and inconsistency, since Quebec is growing stronger under the Conservatives.
Women's Equality

Wayne Marston Hamilton East—Stoney Creek, ON
Mr. Speaker, last week, Canada celebrated the 97th annual International Women's Day. Around the world, we have witnessed a significant change in society's thoughts about women's equality but there is so much yet to do.
Two years ago in Iran, Iranian women came together to organize the One Million Signatures Campaign, also known as the Change for Equality Campaign, in order to fight to change the laws in Iran that are hugely discriminatory toward women.
Parvin Ardalan, a founding member of this campaign, was to be acknowledged internationally with the 2007 Olof Palme award in Stockholm for her courageous work. On March 2, Ms. Ardalan was aboard an Air France flight about to leave Tehran to go to Stockholm to receive her award when she was arrested and removed from the flight.
Ms. Ardalan is facing possible imprisonment for her part in organizing the Change for Equality Campaign.
The Olof Palme Memorial Fund chose Parvin Ardalan because she has succeeded "in making the demand for equal rights for men and women a central part of the struggle for democracy in Iran".
I stand in the House today to congratulate and offer my--

Federal-Provincial Relations
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Yasmin Ratansi Don Valley East, ON
Mr. Speaker, my constituents are wondering what the Conservative government has against the people of Ontario.
The Prime Minister first thumbs his nose at the province by denying Ontario the legal number of seats in the House of Commons, which it is entitled to under the Constitution of Canada. When the premier pointed out that it was unfair to deny Ontario its democratic rights, the Conservatives called him "the small man of Confederation".
Now the Conservative finance minister is continuing the relentless attacks on Ontario. Is this what the Prime Minister defines as a new era of harmony with the premiers?
By calling Ontario the "last place" to do business in Canada, the finance minister is being totally irresponsible and scaring off foreign investment and sacrificing jobs in Ontario.
If this is how the Conservatives do business with the provinces, our country is in serious trouble.

Has anyone seen this animated film or the manga the film was based on? It was just on TV tonight -- I'd heard of it before -- and it was very good.
The Ghost in the Shell is an animated Japanese film and manga based in a futuristic world with highly advanced neurotechnology. It was such a strong influence on The Matrix that some have called it plagiarism.
In the film, a person's consciousness (the information and neural patterns that define them) is referred to as their "ghost" and the body they inhabit is referred to as their "shell", hence the title of the film. The story centers around a cyborg who tries to come to terms with their personal identity, with what it means to be a conscious, sentient being, despite being merely made up of various components, 99% of which are artificial. This cyborg works for a secret intelligence organization in Japan, who is trying to track a terrorist called the Puppetmaster. He is nicknamed the Puppetmaster because of his method of hacking people's minds (their "ghosts") in order to control them, even using one "puppet" to hack another.
Do you believe this kind of technology is possible and, if it is one day possible, would you have reservations about uploading your mind to a new body?

Tasting tamales and eyeing collector motorcycles made for a festive Friday evening at a Foster Elementary fundraiser.
The school's fourth annual Tamale Throw-Down attracted more than 250 people and raised funds for the school, which is known for its English-Spanish dual immersion program.
The funds will be dedicated half to support the school's Parent Teacher Association and half to fund a school program called Project Prepare, an afterschool program involving clubs and activities.
"We have found that students who participate in these clubs outperform their peers in the Colorado Student Assessment Program on reading and math," said Tracie Mayes, who serves on the school PTA and helped coordinate the event.
This year the event was moved from the school, 5300 Saulsbury Court in Arvada, to the Lamar Street Center nearby at 5889 Lamar St., which is designed for receptions and events and now features vintage motorcycles and cars.
"We were able to attract more people by putting it in the larger center and attract more of the extended community," said Mayes. She noted this was the first event at the center since it had been renovated, which was an added draw.
Mayes said the tamale theme is ideal for the school given its Spanish and English immersion emphasis.
And although the tally for the event was not available at press time, she said the event — based on tickets and silent auction items — raised more than $7,000 the year before last and not quite as much last year.
At the event, participants taste tamales — keeping track which tamale stations they have visited by marking wristbands — and vote.
Maria Macias, 39, of Arvada won the Top Individual category.
She said she learned the process of making tamales — which she has down to three-hours — from a friend from Mexico named Karina Lopez.
"When people tasted them they said, 'Oh my goodness.' So I feel great for my friend because she taught me how to make them and because I love to eat," Macias said.
And for the third year in a row, Las Potrancas, 6610 Wadsworth Blvd. in Arvada, won the Top Restaurant category.
Savina Lopez, another PTA volunteer, said people enjoy the texture and the flavor of the restaurant's tamales and the chile sauce on top.
"The chile is really fresh, and there is not too much masa and plenty of meat," she added.
The restaurant also won the People's Choice award.

The high-level representatives and delegations present at the fourth Conference of the Parties of the Framework Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the Caspian Sea (Tehran Convention) welcomed the launch of the Caspian Environmental Information Centre
The web-based Caspian Environmental Information Centre (CEIC), aims to provide reliable and high-quality data for decision-makers on all levels in the Caspian region and beyond. The portal houses reports, national action plans, aggregated data, and scientific and legal documents for environmental issues and activities within the Caspian region. It also provides a directory of all relevant government-affiliated organizations and public participation.
CEIC's primary purpose is to serve as a communication tool of the Secretariat of the Tehran Convention and to provide information for regular State of the Environment reporting of the Caspian Sea (the first State of the Environment Report of the Caspian Sea.
This is a collaborative effort between GRID-Arendal and the Environmental Information Officers of five Caspian littoral states, who manage national data, process and analyze, before reporting it through the CEIC.
