As part of your financial aid offer, you may have been offered a Federal Direct Stafford Loan. If you accept the loan offer, you will be borrowing money from the U.S. Department of Education and agreeing to repay it under the terms and conditions of the loan.
Although a Direct Stafford Loan is a convenient source of additional funding for your education, it is a loan that will be repaid with interest. It is important to budget and borrow carefully:
Remember: You are obligated to repay your loan regardless of whether you complete your education, are satisfied with your education, or are able to find a job.
If you are a first-time Direct Stafford Loan borrower at CSU Long Beach, you will need to
These requirements can be completed online at www.studentloans.gov.
Your loan funds cannot be credited to your account until you have completed both the Entrance Counseling and the Master Promissory Note (and you have accepted your loan).
These steps will only need to be completed the first time you borrow a Direct Stafford Loan at CSULB; you do not need to do them for subsequent years.
Federal regulations require that you complete an entrance counseling session prior to receiving a Federal Direct Stafford Loan. Students at CSU Long Beach complete this requirement online at www.studentloans.gov.
The purpose of the entrance counseling session is to explain your rights and responsibilities as a borrower, to emphasize the legal binding nature of your loan obligation, and to make you aware of the consequences of failing to repay your loan according to the terms of the promissory note.
You will go through a sequence of screens that cover the entrance counseling followed by a 15 question quiz.
Optional: Once you have completed the Entrance Counseling session, you may print a copy of the Student Borrower's Rights and Responsibilities for your records. Click on "Show Form for Printing" and use your browser's print button.
The MPN is a legal contract between you and the Department of Education. Your promissory note is a multi-year note that remains valid for 10 years from the date you sign it; it is designed to cover the maximum loan amount you are eligible to receive for all years of enrollment at CSU Long Beach. You will receive a disclosure statement each year identifying the exact amount disbursed to you.
The MPN is completed online at https://studentloans.gov. You will need to provide the following information when completing the MPN:
After you graduate, leave school, or drop below half-time enrollment, you have a 6-month grace period before your loans enter into active repayment. The repayment period for Stafford Loans varies from 10 to 25 years. Before or during your grace period, you must complete Loan Exit Counseling, which informs you of your rights, responsibilities, and terms of repayment on your loan. You may complete this requirement online or via the mail.
When it comes time to repay your loan, you can choose a repayment plan that is best suited to your financial situation. For descriptions of the various repayment plans, as well as an interactive repayment calculator, refer to the Direct Loan section of the Federal Student Aid website.

Skip to comments.Blacks struggle with 72 percent unwed mothers rate
Posted on 11/06/2010 10:53:29 AM PDT by MamaDearest
Snips from Excerpt only website: Seventy-two percent of black babies are born to unmarried mothers today, according to government statistics. This number is inseparable from the work of Carroll, an obstetrician who has dedicated her 40-year career to helping black women.
The black community's 72 percent rate eclipses that of most other groups: 17 percent of Asians, 29 percent of whites, 53 percent of Hispanics and 66 percent of Native Americans were born to unwed mothers in 2008, the most recent year for which government figures are available. The rate for the overall U.S. population was 41 percent.
(Excerpt) Read more at hosted.ap.org ...
The solution is obvious. More welfare to care for these unfortunates.
What was DPM's prediction?
Most of these kids grow up not knowing who their brothers and sisters are. Then comes along the next generation of inbred kids that struggle with all sorts of related problems. The AA community is destroying itself.
Thank Lyndon Johnson and the Great Society.Honorable Mention to Democrats and their welfare payments for votes scheme.
Somewhere, LBJ is smiling.
IMHO, the continuation and expansion of these programs proves the Democrat party is still teh party of racism. Different tactics, same story.
You get more of what you subsidize. God forbid we condemn black "culture."
What is the percentage of black babies aborted?.. beyond the 72% figure?...
You're just a mean-spirited Republican. (You actually expect these people to be responsible for anything?)
The future of America if the Left has its way.
I don't know if he can smile in hell,but Lyndon sure must have hated black people to inflict the Great Society on them.
That's how I see it too. I was working in the hood this summer and heard a woman say that her son has 12 kids. At first I thought "wow, more power to them", but the more I thought about it, the more I think that they're not all from the same mother.
one in three whites and over half of latinos
this is nothing but a recipe for disaster
40 year career eh? Yep, it's been about that long since the Supremes sang "Love Child".
If you're sick of hearing this song on the oldies station, take a listen to this version:
Morality isn't the only thing that's gone downhill in the past 40 years.
"The solution is obvious. More welfare to care for these unfortunates."
And I would add that they must vote for more Democrats. Oops, I guess they have maxed out on that one.
It'a a brilliant scheme, actually. 'Grow your own' voters! The Dems are farming them.
Our neverending appreciation to LBJ and the Dumbokrats.
From what I hear there aren't a whole lot of smiles going around in hell.
I seem to remember reading that in the early 20th century blacks actually had a lower rate of out-of-wedlock births than whites.
One of the best articles regarding our "helpful" welfare society is: The Dangerous Samaritans:
How Our Poverty Programs Injured the Poor
The AA community is destroying themselves and bringing down our whole society with it.....somebody has to pay for all that medical care to birth the baby, day care, pre-school, free breakfasts/lunches at school, after school programs...and then on to police costs, court costs, jail costs. Not to mention the effects of crime on the useful members of society. I have heard that, before LBJ starting paying 16 year olds to have babies, that the illigetimacy rate amongst both whites and blacks was about 11%....the road to he77 is paved with good intentions....
Ding, ding, ding, we have a thread winnah!
Precisely the objective of "redistribution of wealth."
Many multiple child homes these days seem to be products of single parents with step-brothers and step-sisters of multiple absent fathers.
Wow, how high can it go?
I recall reading in the 60's the rate for whites was 2.5% and 25% for blacks, ten times the rate for whites.
And of course, that was several years before Roe v. Wade and the pill becoming available to unmarried women.
So just imagine what today's "real" rate must be.
It all amounts to genocide. And to add insult to injury, the 'victims' vote for the ones who did this to them by over 90%.
God fearing families
Great society programs
Missing fathers 72% of the time...
Millions of Black babies aborted...
A large percentage of the nation's potential Black populace, missing...
Lyndon, Jessie, Al..., great job. /s
And yet, the Democrat party gets praise for bringing this on Black Americans.
What a disgrace.
The time of hear was around tax time (January-April) and we noticed a curious thing. While we were there, it seemed like 50 or more of the town's residents were filing through to present a 'check' to him...he'd trot upstairs and come back with a few thousand dollars cash in trade...average? I'd say around $5,000.....what were they? They were EITC checks - refunded 'tax' money.......Now it is all electronic. In my state, the EBT card has a green leafy background with two Peaches on it. In the last few years, there has not been even one time, I have not seen some brood mare whip one of these out for a cart full of booty....NOT ONCE....me? I'm just relegated to giving the cashier something she's not used to dealing with - cash....
Bush's fault.
Married to the government.
I was a little surprised that Ass Press allowed an item to be released that was somewhat critical of single parenthood *...gasp!!!...* and actually gave statistics. *...oh noes.....*. Looks like they are wandering a little bit off the Leftist plantation. I'm sure they'll be back soon, however, racked with fresh Leftist guilt for their ideological heresy in this article.
Michelle should address this issue, instead of child obesity. It's far more significant.
You nailed it, Gaffer!
You know, I REALLY try not to profile people racially, I REALLY do. Anyone would have to admit to themselves that it is becoming very difficult not to when we keep seeing facts like this.
If I were black, I would be embarrassed of my race.
The goal is to reach 100%, for those not aborted.
My ex's aunt had 9 kids by at least 5 different dads. She was on welfare, then when her kids got old enough to pop their own kids, they too were on welfare. They all lived under the same roof and still do today.
Destroy marriage, destroy the concept of masculinity, destroy the family and the state becomes Big Daddy....
This is an issue that overwhelms common sense. Most of these kids aren't accidents. The mother deliberately gets pregnant. They have nothing in their lives- and there's no chance things are gonna get better. Along comes a boyfriend- who's an even bigger loser. The only "accomplishment" they're capable of is fathering a child. So they blackmail the mother. Have my kid, or I'm gone. Of course, once the baby is born, it's only a matter of time before they are gone. Then along comes the next boyfriend. who not only wants to demonstrate his ability to father a child, but is also insulted by the presence of another man's child. So the cycle just continues. And by the time the mother finally catches on, it's too late.
Take down the damn bird feeders!
So is John C. Calhoun, another Democrat.
Even Keynes understood the following basic law of economics.
Activity which the government funds will increase.
Activity which the government taxes will decrease.
But the DemonRATS and RINOs don't get it.
This problem is a social cultural disease brought on by laziness and improper upbringing - all abetted by a willing Federal Government.
Great Britain, actually.
I do recall a calypso song about that very thing:
I condemn the culture all the time. I get called "racist" for it until I make the accuser define racism (the belief that some "races" are inherently superior or inferior due to genetic makeup), then I'm not a racist by definition, because genetics doesn't determine cultural behavior.
And, as someone with a biblical worldview, I don't even believe in the concept of "race".
Okay, but you have to admit that they have other problems which make this look like tinker toys - ISLAM....

Guys...it was Hashwald who broke Ichigo's sword - not Bach/Yhwach.
Guys...it was Hashwald who broke Ichigo's sword - not Bach/Yhwach.
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
Oh how sad that Old Man Zangetsu has to go, he was pretty awesome/baddass, oh well I always thought that Hichigo is the one truer to himself than he anyway . So he is made exactly the same way as Zanpakutou... I wonder if it was intentional or coincidence on Aizen's part ?
So, for Ichigo to grow as a Shinigami, his Quincy powers have to be completely eliminated, seeing as it hinder his progress. After all an opposite element can't mix well. An Ice will not mix with Fire well. I guess this is what Zansmith meant when he said that Ichigo will need to say goodbye to Zangetsu.
Not only did Old Man Zangetsu look like Fach, they even whore similar clothes (white underneath with a black over cloak). At least this explains how he can make hundreds swords pulling out of the ground from nothing.
I wonder, does this mean that White has a completely other name ? Then again, White always wielded his own Zanpakutou, which was always strange for a mere inner hollow.
Looks like FGT might have seriously been Quincy Last Stand, simply named different to hide the truth from Ichigo (as mentioned that not only Ishin, but also Zangetsu was hiding it).
So the reason that Old Man Z could use and swing a Zanpakutou, is because he took over White in similar fashion to what Quincy Medallions do ?
Asauchi are made from dead souls of Shinigami... I guess being a Shinigami is a commitment for an eternity, lol.
Hmmmm, I wonder if Tensa Zangetsu is also different, after all, he has blue eyes. From what was shown, the way that Hichigo acted with Old Man was antagonistic, but with the Tensa, he was cooperating.
I wonder about your interpretation.
1) I don't think OMZ has to go anywhere, he is a part of Ichigo, as Ichigo is part Quincy from Masaki his Mom.
2) Ichigo's Hollow/Shinigami AND his Quincy (young Zangetsu) did mix and fuse in the past, why not again?
3) I am not sure Ouetsu is saying that Asauchi are from dead Shinigami. It seems that he could be saying they are made from Hollows (I thinl?).
4) Hichigo had come to terms with OMZ and was no longer being antagonistic, long before Ichigo met Tensa Zangetsu.
In other words, we should hold judgement for a while till we get more information.
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
I think that Ichigo will need to get ride of his Quincy powers, since those can be stolen any moment and depending on them might be a fatal weakness of his. Unless for the power to be stolen, the Bach Inside have to agree to it as well, which would be pretty awesome (then again, why would he agree to leave Katagiri, likely knowing that she would die because of it, if he had anything to say and was a bit different from Bach ?).
It might have been that Bankai and Hollow were the ones that fused only, as representations of his Shinigami and Hollow powers (which were very similar to itself and thus were able to merge with each other from the very beginning), while the Old Man Zangetsu, a representation of his Quincy powers, was left out of it. The way how vivid are blue eyes of Tensa Zangatsu might be an important factor in showing that he is different from Old Man, no he even says that he isn't Zangetus, but Tensa Zangetsu, showing that he has a different personality from Ichigo's Quincy power personification.
Oetsu said that White was made the same way as Asauchi are, by piling up Shinigami Souls (likely dead, or let's hope that those are dead ).
Looks like Ichigo's Bankai might be white from now on.
BTW, I have a question: have sunglasses existed 1000 years ago in our world ?

And that ladies and gentlemen is our short history class for today XD
On-topic though : I really loved this chapter. So full of reveal awesomeness! am I the only one who lold at that girl taking off her tooth? I do love that plot twist, Old man Zangetsu , not being Zangetsu but Juha Bach (Well more of a presence of his Quincy side, not the actual Bach inside him xD)
It would be like when Tensa Zangetsu fused with whitey except this time it would be whitey in dominant control.

Even as i'm starting to write this. I can already tell it might turn out to be an utter wall of text. so apolgies in advance and if you want the short version, just read the bold text. :] (And the list below)
So.... This is pretty mind-boggling. I've been rereading various chapters of the manga. Trying to chalange this new revelation, and what i found was that while there are a few occasion's where this plain doesn't make sense. Alot of the time it makes perfect sense. Almost to much to be a coinsidence (read: a twist made up only a few month's ago)...Almost.
But before we get to that, i want to adress how i understood this latest chapter. Which seems a little different to other users. Naturally feel free to correct me.
Oetsu says these words: (Manga Stream) "The Hollow that Aizen artifically made from piling up Shinigami souls, was named 'White'. Oddly enough, that's also how my Asauchi's are made."
What we know, since pretty much the start, is that Aizen wanted to either remove, or at least raise the limit of power for Shinigami, by removing the Shinigami-Hollow boundry. His tests have shown, that a regular Shinigami will explode when you botch this process. And a captain class will survive just long enough, to turn into a mindless hollow. Here is where thing's get interesting. The natural direction to take from this point, would be to attempt fusing the hollow powers, with the Shinigami powers, effectively fusing the Hollow with a Zanpaktou. This is exactly what the Whitey does, you could even go as far as to say that it's a modified Asauchi. Mean't to fuse with the Asauchi, that the targeted Shinigami already owns. A side effect of this, is that Whitey is an Asauchi itself aswell. so if you never had one to begin with. (like Ichigo) You still can aquire a Zanpaktou from it.
Enter the first "failed" attempt. Where our beloved whitey, has bitten a quincy instead. Masaki had no Shinigami powers, so the proper - intended purpouse of whitey didn't kick in. But Ichigo did inherit it, AND his father's Shinigami powers (perhaps a little conviniently). Which is why Whitey worked on him instead. What i'm saying is Ichigo had an Asauchi since birth. And a modified one at that. Ichigo has been Aizen's most succesful hollowification experiment yet.
So i've explained what i think. Now I'll quickly recap the most important things that happened to Ichigo in the manga and try to apply this logic.
1. Ichigo get's powers from Rukia. - His actual powers are dormant. this has been explained early on. His Asauchi and therfore Zanpaktou, and therefore hollow powers, would not wake up either, naturally. - Makes Sense
2. Rukia's powers are destroyed by Byakuya. Urahara decides to wake up Ichigo's actual powers. - He emerges from the pit with a mask on, and a Shinigami robe. If these powers are fused, then they would wake up together. Furthermore, his father regains his powers, because he's no logner bound to the now awakened, hollow - Makes Sense
3. He is told the name of his Zanpaktou and summon's it - He has an Asauchi since birth, but it seems wierd that he would learn the name from an imposter... unles the name is fake - ?
4. He almost get's killed by Zaraki who breaks his sword, he is then drawn inside his inner world, and forced to fight against Whitey. DESPITE the fact, that he's fighting to get more Shinigami powers. - Throughout the fight Whitey calls out to Ichigo, that he has a magnificent Zanpaktou, he doesn't know how to use, or try to understand. He uses Zangetsu in creative ways. - Makes Sense.
5. When looking at Whitey all Ichigo can feel is Zangetsu's overwhelming power. at the and of the fight Juha's image, and Whitey merge. - there is but one problem in this scene. Whitey refers to Juha's image as "Zangetsu-San" which only makes sense IF Zangetsu is a made up name. Equally important is that he claims these powers will be his, in the future. - ?
6. He learns Bankai through training with fake Zangetsu. - Unless his Bankai is also fake - Doesnt Make Sense
7. Ichigo's hollow powers surface during the fight against Byakuya. They save his live. - The hollow continues the trend of looking down on Ichigo. Laughing at him for destroying his body with his own Bankai. He uses a new type of attack, Black Getsuga. - ?
8. His Hollow powers start taking over during fights where he uses Bankai - This could be explained in more than one way, still, if the bankai is real (comes from Whitey), it can be true, as excecive use of shinigami powers = surfacing of hollow powers. - ?
9. Ichigo conquers his hollow powers by defeating Whitey - If these powers are fused, and they are, then - Makes Sense
10. He has to fight both his Quincy powers and Shinigami/Hollow powers to attain FGT form... Did he loose all powers at that time? where his Quincy powers restored by the Shinigami? - Doesnt Make Sense
Very good reading, Yellow.
I also went back to re-read the current chapter, and I still don't get the full meaning. I sense that neither Mangastream nor Mangapanda got the thing right, and we'll egt more info over the next few chapters.
1) There is no way that Asauchis are made from dead Shinigamis, What Ouetsu was saying was that The Asauchi he made for Ichigo will draw out Hollow Ichigo's power, true Zangetsu's power, and not The Faker OMG.
2) He's MAY also be saying that Asauchis are made from a similar principle to Aizen's Whitey to the extent (I think), that the whitey can merge with a Shinigami's soul. In the same way Asauchis are made to Merge with a Shinigami.
There is now a question of what would happen to OMZ. I personally feel and hope that Zangetsu remains inside Ichigo as a true ally. It was obvious when reading the chapter where Tensa Zangetsu taught Ichigo the FGT that Tensa Zangetsu really cared for/loved Ichigo. It would be a shame to have OMG removed.
I also doubt that Ichigo can re-enter the FGT state as powerfully as he did if the quincy powers are taken away. Finally it would be wrong to think ill of all quincies and quincy powers, given that those powers are a herritage from Masaki who loved Ichigo deeply.
I would love Ouetsu to give Ichigo a chance to talk to OMG and decide if he wants to blend him with the real Zangetsu or not.
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !

Skip to comments.(Maine) Panel rules against Orono school in transgender bathroom access
Posted on 09/22/2010 9:40:56 AM PDT by markomalley
AUGUSTA, Maine The Maine Human Rights Commission ruled Monday that Orono Middle School unlawfully discriminated against a sixth-grader during the 2008-2009 school year by not letting the male-to-female transgender student use the girls bathroom.
This is the same student whose parents filed a similar discrimination complaint against Asa Adams Elementary School in Orono when their child was a fifth grader there during the 2007-2008 school year. That case resulted in the same ruling against the school district in June 2009.
Also Monday, the commission members again began talks about developing anti-discrimination guidelines specifically for schools under the Maine Human Rights Act.
The parents of the child, who no longer attends schools in the district, wrote in their latest complaint to the commission that she experienced anxiety and depression after officials at Orono Middle School forced her to use a gender-neutral bathroom and her peers picked on her.
In choosing to disallow [her] to use the girls bathroom facilities, the school was implicitly isolating and alienating her from other students, the parents wrote. We determined that we needed to modify our actions to do the best we could to ensure [our childs] safety.
The schools response stated that the district accommodated the child by training the staff, educating the students, giving the transgender student her own bathroom, giving her her own locker room and meeting with her parents almost daily.
For the most part, she appeared to be happy and involved in the school community, the school district wrote.
In addition to the bathroom complaint, the students family alleged that Orono Middle School subjected her to a hostile educational environment.
The commissions investigator did cite in her report derogatory remarks made by other students as well as several allegations of stalking by a boy who once followed the transgender student into the girls room and harassed her by calling her faggot.
But the commissioners agreed with the investigator that there were no reasonable grounds to believe the school subjected the student to a hostile educational environment.
Neither side was in attendance at Mondays meeting because neither party filed a letter of disagreement with the commission investigators report.
I dont think it changes anything, the school districts lawyer, Melissa Hewey, said regarding the commissions decision. I think its a good ruling in that it recognized the efforts the school went through to help the student in terms of the harassment issue. The bathroom issue is something the court has to rule on.
The district is currently fighting a lawsuit against the childs family in Penobscot County Superior Court. The new decision against the middle school will likely be added to the lawsuit, which was filed after the commissions ruling in the Asa Adams case.
Hewey said the Orono school district has not changed its policies.
The student is not there, so it is currently not an issue, Hewey said.
She said no other students in the district have since asked for accommodations related to their gender.
The familys lawyer said Monday that they filed the human rights complaint against Orono Middle School because the schools policies remain unchanged.
[Orono Middle School] continued to discriminate against the child after the last [commission] decision. It is clear we have to pursue this further to get them to comply, attorney Jodi Nofsinger said Monday after the ruling.
Nofsinger said the legal battle stretched beyond this one child and is more about making the Orono schools comfortable educational environments for other transgender children who might attend the schools in the future.
They continue [discrimination] up until the present time. They are in violation to the law, Nofsinger said. The schools policy still has not changed.
Members of the Maine Human Rights Commission also discussed Monday plans to work in coordination with the state education commissioner to develop rules regarding sexual orientation, race, national origin and disabilities as they apply to education under the Maine Human Rights Act. Currently, the Maine Human Rights act does not have antidiscrimination policies in those areas. Talks regarding rule-making should begin in early 2011, after the gubernatorial election and after a new administration is in place, according to Patricia Ryan, the executive director of the Human Rights Commission.
If it is male from the waist down it should use the appropriate facilities.
If the boy in question thought he was Napoleon, would they be referring to him as "his Majesty" or "his serene Highness"?
This is the only form of mental illness where sane people are supposed to pretend that they're the ones who are crazy.
Gee, how about making it a comfortable environment for all the 'normal' children that already attend that school?
Well, that is nothing compared to the anxiety and depression that would result from "her" whipping it out in the girls locker room or bathroom.

More insanity. This 6th grade boy is not a "transgender". He is mentally and emotionally confused and what his parents are doing is flat out abuse. And the court are fostering the abuse.
They are letting a sixth grader determine he has a "gender identity" problem! We need a revolution while there is anything left worth saving.
Where are the Conservative politicians on this?
Do they need to take a poll to determine that we don't want this at all?
I'm in Maine, and this isn't the only case where the Democrats in charge think that you can just decide what sex you are.
Wail on the Democrats. Win votes. Do not let up.
Christine! Help!
First, win on transsexuals.
They are clearly CRAZY PEOPLE WHO NEED MENTAL HEALTH CARE.
Win on this.
Then, because the Gays were so welcoming to transsexuals.
Gays are clearly CRAZY PEOPLE WHO NEED MENTAL HEALTH CARE.
Win on this.
Christine! Help!
Can no one speak for the 3/4s of Americans who know what is right on this one?
Are there NO socially conservative politicians?
They'd be letting him run France.
There is a Maine Human Rights Commission. The members of this commission are appointed by the Governor, who is a Democrat.
The Democrats have determined that men are women in certain cases, against all science, reason, common sense, decency, etc.
These parents should be locked up for child abuse.
The other parents should file suits to stop this idiocy on the grounds that their perfectly normal daughters will be traumatized by the intrusion of a biological male in their intimate space.
This mentally ill child and his enabler parents may think of him as a female, but the rest of the world is not obligated to indulge their pathology.
Yeah. I got that. The problem is DNA that says differently. It doesn't matter what the voices in their heads are telling them. Science says that the "voices" are lying.
I call BS on this whole subject for the very reason that we're talking about a 6th grade "transgender".
Whatever mental/emotional/physical issues experienced by "transgendered" people, it is a subject to be dealt with when such people are adults, not when they are still growing and developing.
To somehow tie an issue with a child in school in with the whole gay/lesbian/whatever movement is asinine.
I also think that these issues are completely beyond the scope of schools to deal with. If someone has these issues, he/she/it needs to deal with them after he/she/it is an adult. It's such a simple concept, yet any common sense apparently doesn't exist anymore in this country.
And I would love to know if the parents are of a liberal/radical bent. None of this could happen without the express consent of the parents to press the issue.
Other conditions:
Transracial. You're white. But you FEEL black. Your grades and SATs aren't good. You fill out black on your college application. You get in. You get called on it.
"What, but I FEEL black on the inside. Therefore, I'm black."
Transspecies. You're a dude who is arrested for public urination. Solution: You're a dog. You don't arrest dogs for peeing outside.
There is no end to this.
I read a story somewhere about organic cotton. Organic cotton is expensive. Cotton growers don't want to grow organic cotton because it's too expensive to grow and process. But they like that organic cotton fetches more in the marketplace. They want to use GMO cotton. Roundup ready cotton or whatever they come up with. Their solution: change the meaning of organic.
Stop changing the meaning of words to make the world worse for most people. Men are men and women are women. It's scientific fact in the chromosomes. But the government wants to decree otherwise. Let's change the meaning of marriage so that crazy people can get privileges. Let's make it impossible for consumers to buy organic cotton by defining it out of existence and enriching Monsanto in the process.
No more. Our enemies are sick and evil people.
Christine! Help!
Absolutely correct.
We need to fight this one hard. This is one we win.
Gay is one we win as well, but it's closer.
We win the transsexual debate in a landslide if anyone could bring it up.
The HRC wants grown men to be made to use the same bathroom as little girls too, unisex bathrooms.
If stuff like this is allowed you are going to see just about EVERY boy decide that he is "transgendered" right around the time he hits puberty as long as it means that he can start using the girls locker room.
Idea: Line the hall with portable toilets. These can also be used by the school staff who will eventually have the same problem.
Bring your own t-paper, seat liner, disinfectants, & gas mask.
Abraham Lincoln
Next he will be demanding that the school install urinals in the girls bathroom.
I want to know where LePage stands on this and where Mitchell stands on this.
There's a Governor's election right around the corner.
These people making this very ruling are appointed by the Governor.
You mean to tell me there are parents stupid enough to let their 5th grade child undergo a sex change operation? They should both be jailed for child endangerment, or shot, shot probably being the most appropriate punishment.
This will backfire on them. In way they can't imagine.
why do other people's rights get trashed to protect one persons' rights..??
who knows their "transgender" at that age?....I think the parents are pushing this kid in a direction.....
I wonder how the public school defenders are going to spin this one?
Sending your kids to public school is child abuse.....
Possibly also Another Reason Not To Live In Maine
That was my thought as well.
Time to reprogram the little bigots, dontcha know?
Black Collar Crime!
The judiciary is dismantling our culture and constitution with impunity.
Could it be that the "girl" is a pre-operation hermaphrodite ?
That seems like the only legitimate cause for this suit.
If this is something the parents are pushing on a normal boy or girl, they should be imprisoned for child abuse.
OK, I give up. Who's Christine, and how can she help us?
> "Possibly also Another Reason Not To Live In Maine"
Or Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Oregon, or California, all of which are on this chute into the septic tank.
OK, never mind, I see you're referring to Christine O'Donnell.
Can't we make Maine become part of Canada? They'd fit in better with the weenies in Canada, and the Maine sisters could run for whatever entity it is that wastes Canadian money and does dumb Canadian things.
And we'll let the Canadians worry about little boys who want to be girls but have wieners...
The girls at my school would have simply thrown "his" @$$ out if "he" tried to come in.
She's one of the few Christians left in the Republican Party apparently.
It's another reason to vote for LePage if you live in Maine.
This "board" is appointed by the Governor. There hasn't been a Republican Governor in Maine in 16 years.
"Her" is not a "Her". When one has a penis and testicles they are a MALE!!!!!
I know that, hence the quote marks.
I was aiming that at the morons involved with this issue.They need to quit calling him a "her".
Ever see They Might Be Giants? It's a movie where George C. Scott lives as Sherlock Holmes in NYC. It's tag line is "who's reality is right". The title comes from Don Quixote, who tilted at windmills because "they might be giants". Well they weren't bleeping giants and Quixote was crazy. Next up will students with Ethnic Identity Disorder demand to use the Colored Only Bath Room?
Does anyone know where this school is located? I am willing to bet it is in a middle to upper class area and would be considered a "good" government school.
Have Freepers noticed? Most of these school outrage stories are in schools that would be considered to be "good" schools in "good" areas.
So?....With outrageous school stories **every** day ( usually several different articles involving multiple government schools ), why would any idiot of a parent think that their child's government school is somehow different?
The conservatives of Maine are fighting the liberals here in Maine just like everywhere else.
Paul LePage, a good, solid, tea party conservative Republican, is running for Governor and is up by 10-15 in the polls.
Orono is a suburb of Bangor. Bangor is the 2nd largest city in Maine. Orono is where the University of Maine is.

Works Well And Heats Super Fast!I took a chance on this and I think it's a keeper. It heats up super fast, almost instantly and with little effort you can create a good hair day very easily. I have fine, color treated hair and it whips it into shape and creates silky volume. I'm sure with more practise (or more skill) you could do much more than my meager capabilities allow. It says on the box it replaces a hair dryer, I think that is a step too far. I now spend less time with my hair dryer, but still need it to dry the hair - then use this tool to actually style it. Seems like a very high quality tool as it should be for this price. Plan to take it to Europe later this year as it does have international voltage capability.

Tourism Australia and Virgin Australia to Double Global Marketing Spend To $12M13/12/2012
Tourism Australia and Virgin Australia are to double the value of their current marketing partnership in a bid to further support the growth of Australia's inbound tourism market.
Under the new arrangement, the two parties will increase their current joint commitments from A$6 million to A$12 million over the next three financial years, on a range of joint marketing activities, including the promotion of major sporting and business events.
The global partnership will focus on key inbound visitor markets to Australia – the United States, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Continental Europe and Asia.
Tourism Australia Managing Director Andrew McEvoy said the commitment of both organisations to double the value of the current Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) recognised the close working relationship and the increased significance of Virgin Australia's expanded international and domestic flight networks.
"The extension of our current deal with Virgin Australia is great news for Australian tourism and the extra funds will immediately go to good use in some of our most important inbound tourism markets," Mr McEvoy said.
"Virgin Australia has an international footprint which spans a number of Tourism Australia's key markets, including New Zealand, the United States, Europe and the Middle East. When you add to this the airline's extensive domestic network, the benefits of strengthening our partnership are both logical and compelling."
He added that the recent bounce back in US arrivals, up four per cent so far this year, was a significant opportunity and would also be a key focus of the additional marketing funds.
Virgin Australia Chief Executive Officer Mr Borghetti said: "Both Virgin Australia and Tourism Australia recognise the importance of tourism to Australia's economy and are committed to promoting Australia as a world class destination.
"Thanks to our growing international operations and our recently formed alliances with four of the world's leading airlines Air New Zealand, Delta Air Lines, Etihad Airways and Singapore Airlines, we now have the ability to access international visitors from over 400 cities around the world.
"Today's announcement will see Virgin Australia and Tourism Australia double our combined efforts to increase visitation from these markets. We will also work closely with Tourism Australia on new opportunities around major sporting, business and cultural events in Australia", Mr Borghetti said.
The expanded arrangement will feature marketing on traditional and digital media platforms as well as event and sponsorship activities.
Tourism Australia and Virgin Australia will each contribute A$2 million annually, for the next three financial years 2012/2013, 2013/2014 and 2014/2015, equating to A$12 million in this three year period, doubling the value of the Memorandum of Understanding.
This continues Tourism Australia's growing 'partnership marketing approach', today working with more than 200 industry partners including airlines, distributors and Australian industry in its key tourism markets.

Theme: Boom & Bust
Artist: Max DUPAIN
Birth/Death: 1911–1992
Title: Meat queue

Meat queue 1946 documented a necessary postwar pastime for many Australian women when certain foods were still in short supply.
Framed by the two women looking towards the camera, the three women in the centre seem to be caught in a moment of frustration and tension. The frieze like series of rounded bodies, under the rail of hooked meat suggests interesting connotations, however, Dupain is more concerned with capturing a moment of everyday interaction than in attempting any social comment.

UNC students show off artwork at First Friday art event
April 10, 2013
Graduating students from the art education program at the University of Northern Colorado will exhibit their work Friday at the Bean Plant Studio, 701 7th St.
The event is part of the monthly First Friday art show that features showings at 16 downtown Greeley locations. The exhibition is titled "Moving On."
"It truly does prove that they can teach and that they are wonderful art makers, too," said Connie Bethards, associate professor at the UNC art education department. "They are ready to move on and get a job."
Bethards said that visitors could expect a variety of different media-like paintings, ceramics, photographs, needlework and fiber sculptures. The exhibition will feature artwork from 14 students.
Owner Susan Smallwood Herold said she was happy to volunteer her studio so that students could show off their art. Herold opens the place where she works only as part of the First Friday series.
First Friday takes place every first Friday of the month. Events feature artwork, as well as music performances, art demonstrations, film screenings and crafts for sale. Refreshments are provided at some locations.

"From early on, very early on, I understood that art is not about what you say. It's about these other things that you don't say."
Pepón Osorio
About the artist
Pepón Osorio, best known for large-scale installations, was born in Santurce, Puerto Rico, in 1955. He was educated at the Universidad Inter-Americana in Puerto Rico and Herbert H. Lehman College in New York, and received an MA from Columbia University in 1985. Osorio's pieces, influenced by his experience as a social worker in The Bronx, usually evolve from an interaction with the neighborhoods and people among which he is working; he says, "My principal commitment as an artist is to return art to the community." A recent example is "Tina's House," a project created in collaboration with a family recovering from a devastating fire. The house—a tabletop-size art piece—tells the story of the night of the fire and those affected, and is traveling the country in a series of "home visits": a home visit invites a new family to live with the art work for a period of at least one week, allowing the story of "Tina's House" to be told in many homes and environments. Osorio's work has been shown at Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; El Museo del Barrio, New York; Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC; El Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico; and El Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Puerto Rico. Pepón Osorio lives in Philadelphia.

Not really, he's been shown previously already [when Hidan asked what were Akatsuki's goals]. Granted, it wasn't a full-on view, but they still revealed some of his face, hair, body, etc.
Think about it ... his "first" appearance is still going to be epic.

But when bluehen said:
It was in defiance of those odds that earns him the ultimate honor as a Jet. Greatness isn't defined solely by statistics. Having Chrebet be a player who stood loyal to one organization, fought for yards, fought for the team and was the reason we could keep drives alive and win games qualifies him as great in my eyes.
For you to be a Jet fan, and not want to see an honor given to an underrated athlete who dedicated his adult football career to an organization that's never gotten fair treatment in the media is ridiculous. He could've gone the Coles route in the past and demanded insane amounts of money and tested free agent markets, and he didn't. He made plays for the team when other players couldn't. He's one of the few great Jets in our history.. even greater than Curtis Martin, in my opinion.

Elayne Swasey Cottingham, with Patti Axelsen, Toni Lindsey, and Cheryl Nell Manzanares, all members of the Swasey family, recently presented the Emery County Archives with their family collection of Royal and Eva Swasey's letters and postcards dated 1908 through 1930, and also a collection of family photographs placed on five CDs.
Shirley Spears, Archives Administrator, said she and Cottingham have been discussing the family's donation of these letters to the Archives for the past several years, and it is so exciting to finally see it happen. Cottingham and her brother, Lee Monte Swasey, both acknowledge that donating these letters to the Archives will ensure their preservation for future generations of family members and history seekers. Most of the letters are personal correspondence between Royal and his wife, Eva, through their times of separation while he was in places such as Green River and Temple Mountain. The photographs are of various Swasey family members. These letters and photographs are a wonderful addition to the Archives' collections, and will be available for public perusal (with some restrictions) as soon as they are copied, documented, and given proper archival preservation attention.
October was Utah Archives Month, and the Emery County Archives will soon celebrate its fourth year in the county. The Archives opened to the public in May 2001, with a dedication to become an important repository for donations of family, organization, and agency documents and artifacts in order to be a major resource for research and documentation of the history, life, and culture of the people of the Castle Valley region. Phone calls and visits from people seeking information about the Castle Valley region are increasing as more people become aware of the Archives existence. Research information, photographs, and facilities were provided to California State University, Stanislaus, Professor Nancy Taniguchi, formerly of Price, who was writing a book on Castle Valley. Her book, "Castle Valley America - Hard Land, Hard-Won Home" contains history of Carbon and Emery counties' early settlers and towns, and is available in bookstores now.
The Archives has also been involved in the publishing of two books: "Cowboy Poetry From the San Rafael," layout by Dottie Grimes and edited by Kent Petersen (2002); and "Castle Valley: Our Towns, Our Desert, Our Mountains," layout by Dottie Grimes and edited by Kathleen Truman (available in November). These books are made possible through a grant from the Eccles Foundation.
At the Archives you will find collections such as the Emery County Progress newspapers (1900 to present - the first 10 years which are now available on the internet at www.digitalnewspapers.org); files of information collected by the Emery County Historical Society and donated to the Archives; personal family histories and oral interviews; ledgers of businesses such as the Emery County Bank and the Bown Cattle Company which are no longer in existence; old law books, Relief Society books, and an assortment of others just as old; diaries, books, ship and railroad records, and other memorabilia from a 1913 LDS mission to Denmark; World War II memorabilia; old photographs and negatives (most of which have not been identified). In-depth information on the Manti forest service was gathered by the Archives during the 100th Anniversary celebration, which included oral interviews and photographs from people who worked for the forest service or were in the CCCs working to improve the forest and roads. That project led to another one for the CCCs in Emery County, which is still in progress.
Projects in progress at the present time are: a grant through the Utah State Historical Society on Castle Valley women at home during WWII, which includes an oral history and gathering family and WWII memorabilia; the Emery County Historical Commission projects on the San Rafael Swinging Bridge and the Muddy Creek bridge, both of which also include oral histories and gathering of photographs and memorabilia. The Archives urges anyone with information or photographs on any of these projects, or any other historical information or photographs which could be preserved in the Archives, to contact Shirley Spears at 381-2671 or 650-4780, or visit the Archives upstairs in the Emery County Courthouse in Castle Dale. The Archives also conducts preservation classes to teach the public how to care for, preserve and store their heirlooms, documents and photos, etc. Green River residents can visit the Green River branch of the Emery County Archives which is located downstairs in the John Wesley Powell Museum.
Earlier this year, the Utah State Archives requested the services of the Emery County Archives to microfilm town and county government records for the four-county region. The Archives has now become a regional repository for these films. Shirley is currently filming Emery County town records, under the direction of Dixie Swasey, Emery County Recorder and Utah State Historical Records Advisory Board member. After this filming is completed, she will begin on the government town records of Carbon, Grand and San Juan counties.
This microfilm will be available to the public for research.

Here's maybe the biggest side benefit of not getting eliminated from American Idol last week: Whoever was going to go home got to be mentored by the always excellent Harry Connick Jr. Tonight, the four remaining finalists -- Amber Holcomb, Angie Miller, Candice Glover and Kree Harrison -- tackle the Great American Songbook and more contemporary tunes, too. Tune in, then tell me how you think they did. -- Brian Mansfield
Tonight, the Final Four will sing songs from 2013, followed by standards. Harry Connick Jr.'s offering his mentoring help.
"American Idol's lucky this year to have four very, very talented singers in the top four," he says. He thinks tonight will be exciting because it'll present two different sides of each singer.
The show's got a few minutes left tonight, so the Final Four gets a group sing. Strangely, it's a song made famous by a British X Factor group -- Little Mix's Wings. Bet Simon Cowell is loving that.
Kree Harrison's singing Stormy Weather. She tells Harry Connick Jr. she listened to Etta James' and Lena Horne's versions. "If you sing simply, it can be very, very powerful," Connick tells her. He wants her to get rid of all her runs. "They're gratuitous. And they're wrong." Plus, they take away from the melody.
"Do you want to be a great singer?" he asks her. Of course, she does. Then sing the melody, he tells her, and forget everything else. He thinks it'll be almost impossible for her to actually learn the melody in a few days, but she'll probably get enough of it to get by on the show.
Harrison pares back some of the gymnastics for her performance, but she can't resist adding a few, almost as afterthoughts to the main phrase. When the song modulates, she adds a lot of volume to it, and her runs don't quite work. It's a crowd pleaser -- but Connick was right.
Mariah Carey says she was interested by the song choice, because it's so overused. And she thinks Harrison looks gorgeous. (Uh-oh.) She was expecting something bluesier, less lounge-y. She wonders if Randy Jackson agrees with her, but I don't think he even understands her. She does think Connick was on point.
Keith Urban agrees with Connick, too. "I would have chosen a different song, and we wouldn't be having this conversation," he says. "Your instincts are beautiful, and they set you apart from everybody else."
Nicki Minaj can see how Connick's advice would be startling to young singers. Outside of that, "I wish you guys would have paid more attention to the song choice, because it means so much, whether you're going to put someone to sleep or give a memorable performance."
Randy Jackson heard the disconnect, too. But in a confusing situation, he recommends,"Always stick to who you are."
Connick gets into the act. "She has to learn the melody first. ... You have to learn the song first, and then be Kree. But you have to learn it." He can't believe Jackson told Harrison to be herself but that she should have sung Stormy Weather more like Etta James. Jackson doesn't think that's quite what he says. And now they start bickering.
"You're making Nicki and Mariah look very benign here," Ryan Seacrest tells them.
Grade: B-
Harry Connick Jr. tells Ryan Seacrest that he loves singers who do runs -- he mentions Kim Burrell specifically -- but the thing about standards is, they don't need them. "Hitting high notes at the end of My Funny Valentine doesn't make any sense," he says.
He tells Candice Glover something along those lines when she tries to play with Billie Holiday's You've Changed. Just sing the melody, he tells her. "Maybe some of the 14-year-olds in the audience won't get it, but I'd be willing to take that risk."
Glover responds to the suggestion. Her performance is all tone and phrasing and dynamic shifts, with just the occasional jump into head voice or extra bit of vibrato delivered with such an intensity that it can induce chills.
Another standing ovation -- this one deserved.
"Candice is in it to win it tonight, y'all," which is Randy Jackson's way of saying that he's speechless. He says he disagrees with Connick, that it's not about runs, it's about feeling. Of course, that was exactly Connick's point -- he was criticizing Amber Holcomb for not feeling her song enough. Which just shows Jackson doesn't always know what he's hearing.
"Oh, I hate it, that was the worst thing I've ever heard in my life," says Mariah Carey, trying her hand at sarcasm.
"I enjoyed watching Mariah watch you," Keith Urban says. "Your power and your control was just beautiful."
"I'm not going to add anything else," Nicki Minaj says. "Ryan, come on out."
Grade: A+
"Can we stop you?" Harry Connick Jr. says as Amber Holcomb sing the first line of My Funny Valentine. "What is this song about?"
"A guy. Who, I guess, they're being real funny, weird," Holcomb says.
"To be truthful, she had no idea what the song was about," he says. And he grills her about every line in the song. And, with that, he has revealed Holcomb's fatal weakness. She sings well, she just doesn't know what she's singing about. It's that connection thing that the judges seem to sometimes hear, apparently with everyone but her.
Holcomb sings beautifully, elegantly, but it's almost impossible to hear her without thinking of that stinging critique. It brings every note, every impressive run into question. But that voice is certainly impressive. Impressive enough to get a standing ovation from all four judges.
"Up there looking like a beautiful, budding red rose," says Nicki Minaj. "Why are you looking like you want to cry?"
"I'm just overwhelmed," Holcomb says. But Connick's comments — and the fact that her fatal weakness has just been exposed publicly — have to be weighing on her heart.
"You're up there crying because you're thinking about votes," Minaj says. "No matter what happens tomorrow, you have a lifetime ahead of you to make incredible moments in music. Please believe in yourself."
"I think you made a believer out of a lot of people," says Randy Jackson, who believes the ending of the song "was absolutely unbelievable." Even though she sang it early in the season, "You slayed it tonight, you added new wrinkles."
Mariah Carey's been asking for Holcomb to return to the spirit of the first time she sang that song, and she did that tonight. "Thank you."
From the point she hit her big run to the end of the song, "that performance was stellar," Keith Urban says. "All you needed was a little bit of confidence."
Grade: A-
Someone to Watch Over Me is a perfect song, because you don't have to do anything but sing the melody, Harry Connick Jr. thinks. So when Angie Miller starts playing with it, he tells her, "Don't sing notes that are not in the chords."
Miller picked the song because she often heard her mother sing it. By the time she takes the stage, she has simplified it. It's pretty enough, but there's more drama in the string arrangement than there is in Miller's performance. Good, but hardly great.
Keith Urban asked why she picked the song. "Because my mother used to sing it around the house," she tells him. "You sang it so beautifully," Urban says, adding that the clarity and the timbre in her voice was beautiful.
Miller puts Nicki Minaj in mind of a Disney princess. She could totally hear her singing Beauty and the Beast-type songs. "It definitely was better than the first performance."
Randy Jackson wasn't crazy about the arrangement, but "this girl can sing, and that was an amazing vocal."
Mariah Carey's mom used to sing that song, and she's in the audience tonight. "So thank you for choosing the song, because it has a special significance to me." She tries to disagree with Minaj, saying she doesn't have to sing at the top of her voice the entire time, but Minaj didn't say that, and the bickering begins again.
Grade: B+
Kree Harrison has been doing some soul-searching since getting raked over the coals by the judges last week. Hopefully, she'll be more believable singing Carrie Underwood's See You Again, her current choice for tonight.
"Smokin, absolutely smokin'," Harry Connick Jr. says after she runs through the song in rehearsal. "I wouldn't change a note of that. ... I would buy that in a second." And, if she calls him when she's making her record, he'll come help her.
Harrison's arrangement puts pedal steel front and center. And where Underwood starts belting from almost note one in her version, Harrison holds back. It's very tender. And she does connect: When Harrison sings, "Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking," she looks and sounds like it actually is.
"I felt like you were very connected, in the beginning of the song, particularly," Mariah Carey says. "You delivered that soul that you have within you." Even though she didn't go on a "vocal tirade" at the end, Carey appreciated its authenticity.
Keith Urban wasn't quite getting connected, though. "It's a power ballad," he says, and he felt like there was a conflict between the size of the song and the intimacy of seeing Harrison and the guitarist seated. "But your voice is faultless, it always is."
Nicki Minaj "loved my Kreedom performance, I really, really did." She wrote down that Harrison sang with her eyes. "I feel you absolutely connected to every lyric in that song." The technical things that Urban noticed didn't bother her.
"You got an amazing voice, and that was a great vocal," says Randy Jackson, who says he focuses more on the vocals at this point in the competition than any other thing.
Ryan Seacrest then brings out Harry Connick Jr., who, he says, loved her performance.
"Didn't she kill it?" Connick asks the audience. "She sounded great, right?"
He's going to stick around and listen to more.
Grade: A-
Candice Glover has an emotional connection to Bruno Mars' When I Was Your Man. Though it's sung from a man's point of view, she likes the idea of trying to put herself into that man's shoes.
"It's a hard thing to do, what you're doing," Harry Connick Jr. tells her, "and I hope you're happy with it."
She sings it beautifully, easily the strongest of the three performances so far tonight. And when the falsetto run hits, she lets the background singers handle, giving her own, lower run as counterpoint. The judges just shake their heads in amazement.
"First and foremost, this is a singing competition," says Randy Jackson. "If you can sing, you can sing anything! Yo! This girl right here, that's how you sing a song!"
"I must agree," says Mariah Carey. "Huge hit, Candice knows how to take any song and has the musicality to change it to suit her."
"I didn't care about the man thing, at all," says Keith Urban. "When you sing like that, you could sing When I Was Your Giraffe."
"That performance actually deserved a standing ovation," says Nicki Minaj. So she stands. So do Urban and Jackson. "Today, you gave me every single thing that I was talking about last week. I could see Candice as a current R&B artist right now. ... You feel and look, to me, like an artist right now." She's the first of the singers tonight to sing the song like it was her own.
Grade: A
Amber Holcomb considers getting to perform again this week a bit of redemption.
Holcomb has picked Pink's Just Give Me a Reason for her 2013 choice, but she's a bit iffy on the words. That's not a big deal to Harry Connick Jr., especially when he sees Holcomb start snapping her fingers and getting into the groove of the melody — something she does very, very well. Connick thinks it even improved the tone of her singing.
Like Miller, Holcomb has found a contemporary song with a lovely melody. Unlike Miller, Holcomb has an arrangement with some shape. The breakdown, where all the instruments except the drums and Holcomb's voice drop away, is especially impressive. But it doesn't quite have the swing it did when Holcomb was snapping her fingers in rehearsal.
Nicki Minaj notices the difference, too. "This particular performance, I didn't see that it was connected all the way through. Sometimes it was in, sometimes it was out."
"Did you have a good time tonight? Are you having fun?" Randy Jackson asks. "You look like you are out-of-your-mind nervous, thinking 20 things at once." Holcomb sort of grunts a response, indicating that Jackson's put his finger on something.
Mariah Carey wants everybody to understand how difficult it is to learn a new song, but she'd also like to have seen a more confident Amber Holcomb.
Keith Urban thinks Pink is an under-rated singer, so he understands why Holcomb had a hard time keeping everything together. Even with all her problems, he still loved the tone of her voice.
Grade: B+
Harry Connick tells Angie Miller that his whole house loves her -- except that he doesn't (it's a joke). Miller plans to sing Rihanna's Diamonds, and Connick compares her version to a lullaby.
Miller pulls way back on Diamonds, beginning it solo at the piano -- maybe the best way to experience her full personality. Bass and percussion come in at the chorus, as does a second voice. It's intimate and haunting, a very different experience from Rihanna's record. And when he stares at the camera, her eyes sparkle like, well, you know. It's pretty enough, but it lacks the magic of the hit version.
Keith Urban likes the muscular weight that Rihanna's record has, but he didn't feel Miller's arrangement kept that. "If you're going to take a song and change the arrangement, you're free to change the melody, too," he says.
Nicki Minaj felt like Miller's performance was different from her other piano performances because she's making more eye connection with the audience and trying to sell the song more with her body than her heart. "You can do better."
Randy Jackson doesn't think the arrangement went anywhere. But he does like Miller's leather shorts.
Mariah Carey feels like she tried to take the song to a different place, but she also noticed that Miller was playing to the camera more than usual.
Grade: B

Virgin Blue Gets Serious About Business Travel With New âBlue Plusâ Fare07/03/2005
Virgin Blue is stepping up its bid to lure more of the corporate market with the launch today of "Blue Plus", a radically new Virgin Blue fare designed specifically for business travellers.
Virgin Blue's new Blue Plus business fares will provide the following:
A choice of a money back refund (minus a $30 admin fee), or a full credit which can be used towards a flight within 12 months of the original booking should the guest fail to check-in or cancel their flight.
Free entry into the airline's Blue Room lounges
New Priority Check-in counters for Blue Plus passengers (It is also possible to check-in at Blue Room concierge desks)
Seating in our Suit Zone™ section of the aircraft.*
Generous checked baggage allowance of 32kg
Ability to change the name of traveller without penalty
Ability to change the flight time or date without penalty
* subject to availability - Suit Zone™ is in the front half of our aircraft and offers more personal space.
"We have listened to our corporate customers and we are serious about developing service propositions for the business traveller which also offer significant savings for their companies," said Virgin Blue Chief Commercial Officer, Stefan Pichler.
"Our feedback shows that business travellers actually don't want to be charged premium prices for the privilege of being served cafeteria style food on the way to a business meeting.
What they want is what we will deliver, hence our Blue Plus product," he said.
"The 'no questions asked' refundable feature is particularly important as it allows great flexibility in managing and optimising corporate travel budgets. This is the first time Virgin Blue has offered a refund option. This not only sets us apart from any other low fare airline in the world, it will also put us in a stronger position to compete with traditional carriers," Mr Pichler said.
"We expect Blue Plus to attract a number of new Virgin Blue flyers, and we will continue to enthusiastically lobby for an increasing share of business from Australian corporation and Government organisations," he said.
Virgin Blue also offers 'Blue Zone' seating with extra leg room and will introduce an Australian first when it installs live in-flight seatback TV later this year.

Strategic Marketing - Role of Relationships, Information & Services
Komal Chopra
Amity Business School
December 12, 2004
The paper deals extensively with the fact that marketing is everyone's business within the organization. Any organization in any industry cannot draw out the blueprint of its success within the given uncertainty of future challenges unless and until it has a very holistic and comprehensive strategy itself.
Considering the importance of strategizing for future, the author would highlight the importance of CRM, Knowledge Management, Database, Market Research, Relationships with Value Chain Partners, Advertising and Public Relations Agency, Technology, Defection Rates, Holistic Marketing and many more such key issues that are of utmost significance for any firm to stand out in a situation of hyper competition.
The paper would focus on the recent theories given by Philip Kotler, the guru of marketing.
