What happened to customer service? It's one of my biggest pet peeves these days. I'm not sure what's happening out there and what caused it—from grumpy flight attendants, annoyed waitstaff, waking up on the wrong side of the bed bank tellers, or photographers that just don't care anymore.
After I graduated from high school, I worked as a stock-room manager for the Town Square Department at Nordstroms. Everyday I walked through those doors I had "The Customer Is Always Right" beaten into my brian. At every corner, there was a sign about customer service and how to treat them. Looking back it was probably the best training I could have ever had growing up. No matter what the problem, you always had a smile on your face and tried to make sure the customer was taken care of, one way or another.
At WPPI, we have always prided ourselves on being very customer-service oriented. Look, I'll be the first one to admit we've made mistakes in the past, like the long lines we had two years ago for speakers or the chaos at registration when we were at Bally's years ago. We listened and we made changes, always with a smile. Well, it was a smile then and a lot of cocktails later. Either way, we tried to make it work for people. I've always said, if we make a mistake, we'll make good on it and then some. Are we perfect? By no means do we always make everyone happy, but we'll bend over backwards to make sure we fix the problem. Sometimes that doesn't always work, but if you don't have a good attitude from the start, you're going to end up ruining the customer relationship and risk never seeing them again.
In this day and age, If you do something with a smile and try to make your clients happy any way you can, you've won half the battle. So the next time you've got an upset client, kill them with kindness. If that doesn't work, rinse and repeat. And if you still can't make them happy, then smile and move on, at least you can sleep at night knowing you've done your best.

Prince-Bishops' Palace, Liège

- Address:
Rue Sainte Ursule 1-5
- MAPS: Google Maps
The Prince-Bishops' Palace is an iconic building in Liège which you can admire in the Place Saint-Lambert, in the city centre.
Also known as the Episcopal Palace of Liège, it currently houses the provincial government in one half, and the law court in the other half.
A spot of history
Two constructions preceded the current Prince-Bishops' Palace. The first one, built during the episcopate of Notger, was integrated into the fortifications of the first city wall. It disappeared during a fire in 1185.
The second suffered the same fate in 1505. The current palace owes most of its splendour and originality to Erard de la Marck.
Please note that the the palace's first courtyard is open to visitors.

The Wells Field Office staff visited the Hawkwatch International Research Site in the Goshute Peak Wilderness Study Area (WSA). Julie Rodman, archaeologist; Cam Collins, wildlife biologist; Gerry Miller, project manager; and Bruce Thompson, wild horse specialist made the 2.5 mile, 1,800 foot climb to the top of the ridge overlooking Christmas Tree Canyon with wonderful views of the Great Salt Lake Desert to the east and the Ruby Mountains to the west. Along with the Hawkwatch volunteer staff, the Wells team helped to count, band, document and release over 70 various birds of prey including Red Tail Hawks, Goshawks, Kestrels, and a Merlin among others.
The Goshute range is one of a collection of ranges that make up the North American interior flyway which provide the lift necessary for these birds to make their migration south to Central and South America. The research station is open daily to the public from mid-August to the end of October/beginning of November depending on the weather. The ultimate highlight of the day came from a pair of Golden Eagles that were spotted over the Pequop range flying south toward warmer climates. (Lesli Ellis-Wouters, Elko District public affairs specialist)

Omaha, Nebr.
Omaha, the largest city in Nebraska and the seat of Douglas County, is located in the eastern part of the state on the west bank of the Missouri River, opposite Council Bluffs, Iowa.
The Lewis and Clark expedition visited the area in 1804, and the U.S. Army built Ft. Atkinson nearby in 1819. Pierre Cabanne established a fur-trading post at the site in 1825. The first Mormon migrants wintered there in 1846–1847 on their way to Utah. The city grew rapidly as the most northerly supply point for overland wagons to the Far West.
The city was officially founded in 1854 after the Nebraska Territory was opened for settlement. It was named for the Omaha Indians living nearby (whose tribal name means "those who go upstream or against the current"). Omaha was incorporated as a city in 1857 and was the capital of the Nebraska Territory from 1855 to 1867. The city continued to thrive as a point of entry and a major transportation center when the Union Pacific transcontinental railroad arrived in 1869.
Omaha is a major market for grain and livestock, food processing, telecommunications, and insurance. Other important industries include electrical equipment and finance as well as printing and publishing. It continues to be a major railroad hub.

Scarlets and Wales wing George North has been cleared of any serious damage to his neck after being stretchered off on Friday.
Scarlets and Wales wing George North has been cleared of any serious damage to his neck after being stretchered off on Friday.
The British and Irish Lions hopeful was placed in a brace during Friday's defeat to Ulster at Ravenhill, sparking fears over the rest of his season.
The Scarlets have confirmed that there is 'no significant or serious damage' to the 20-year-old's neck.
In a statement on Saturday, the club have confirmed he will be further assessed by the Scarlets medical team on Monday. It is however too early to assess the full extent of the injury or indeed the recovery period at this stage.
"The Scarlets would like to express their gratitude for the concern raised by supporters and colleagues in the rugby world regarding George North following the neck injury he sustained," read the statement.
"The Scarlets winger was taken to hospital after the incident where as a precaution his neck was both x-rayed and scanned.
"The results from the two scans showed that there was no significant or serious damage to his neck."
North travelled home with the rest of his Scarlets team-mates on Saturday on a flight from Belfast.

By MARK H AND TERRY LYN WILLIAMSCastle Dale
Dear Editor,
On Sunday afternoon of Memorial Day Weekend my wife and I drove to Goblin Valley via Highway 24 to meet some family. On the way back we decided to take the scenic route back past Temple Mountain to Exit 131 on I-70. We were pleasantly surprised to see that not a single car or camper was in the "people pastures" aka Bureau of Land Management Campgrounds with restrooms at Temple Mountain. There were three big camps between the two "people pastures" on State School Trust Land and seven or eight camps within 1 1/2 miles on up the road. People have enough fenced in feelings at home. They don't want it when there is more than 500,000 acres out there that belong to all of us. I know that our Emery County officials realize that we don't need to be fenced in when camping. Maybe they will be able to work with the Bureau of Land Management to help them realize that fenced enclosures with an entrance and exit is not necessary.

Fall 2016 - Spring 2017
Regional location course tution
Summer I and II, 2017
Regional location course tution
Why will some students taking a combination of main campus and Online Education courses see a tuition adjustment?
Students taking a combination of main campus and Online Education courses may see a tuition adjustment so that the tuition will more closely align with the flat rate tuition (less the online support fee, which is $60 per credit hour).
If my employer reimburses my tuition after I recieve a grade, can I defer my tuition payment until then?
WMU offers an Employer Deferment Payment Plan to students who qualify for their employer's tuition reimbursement after recieving their final letter grade. It allows the amount of tuition and fees paid for by the employer to be deferred until 30 days after the end of the semester.
How will I know if I am eligible for a tuition adjustment?
You are eligible for the tuition adjustment if you meet the following criteria:
When will the tuition adjustment show up on my bill?
Adjustments will be calculated automatically during registration up thru the last day of the drop/add period. After that time, accounts will require review and adjustments, if needed, will occur within 24-72 hours.
Why do undergraduate Online Education courses now cost less than face-to-face courses at regional locations?
While the per credit hour tuition for Online Education courses may be lower than for face-to-face courses at regional sites, the $60 per credit hour online support fee actually makes the total cost for an online course comparable to a face-to-face course at a regional location.
Am I eligible for the tuition adjustment if I am enrolled in only online courses?
If you are enrolled in online courses totaling 12-15 credit hours (i.e., the same number of credit hours to be eligible for the flat rate), you will be eligible for the tuition adjustment.
It's no secret that higher education comes at a price. But at WMU, we strive to maintain affordable tuition rates and support qualified students with financial aid and scholarships.

Sign-up here for an emailed version of my Printable Recipes.
I can't get enough of this lilac pattern in our house right now. This airy repeated pattern is giving every room in my house a cottage feel. I normally lean to stripes, or blocks of muted, natural colors, but this entire collection has turned my house into a quaint english cottage, and I LOVE it.
Do you remember when Tessa posted about a Southampton Cottage that repeated a floral pattern in every room? It was so fresh and charming, chic. It made me long for a breezy beach cottage.
The Lilac print is just a touch feminine with tiny bits of a lavender/pink shade, but reads green from a distance making it the perfect, understated way to use a floral pattern. I am just smitten and love how transforming it is for each space in our home.
Set of 4.
The favorite lilac pattern is repeated here with a triple band border around the perimeter.
No collection is complete without a tea towel! I'm contemplating turning some of these into cafe curtains in Emma's bathroom. Yes, I'm addicted to this pattern.
Here is my pattern again : )
Our white and ivory bedroom now feels like it is a cozy cottage room with just the addition of this lilac covered pillow cover and some fresh lilacs on the bedside.
Lilac Meena Tablecloth, $68
The other tablecloth that coordinates with this collection is the Lilac Meena Tablecloth. It has a small graphic floral print in a pale lilac/pink color with the lacy lilacs at the border. You can see it coordinates beautifully with the Lilac Napkins.
Lilac Jasna Tablecloth, $68
I already have my table set for Mother's Day : ) It would also be the perfect setting for a baby or bridal shower, or birthday.
This vase gives such an earthy and casual look to anything it contains. I will use it for flowers and also to put candles in
I had a massage a couple of years ago and the therapist shared insights on body brushing. There is nothing more exhilarating (or exfoliating!) than using a body brush on your legs, feet and back when you are in the shower. Completely transformative and helps circulate energy throughout your body.
I use this face brush every morning and night along with my facial cleansing oil. It exfoliates and smooths my entire face - without a huge price tag of an electric one.
Why are simple, pretty essentials so hard to find? I love the natural colors and materials used in this brush. It keeps my bathroom feeling soothing, instead of something bright and plastic.
I use all of the brushes in my Kitchen Brush Set, but these are the two that I need to replace on a regular basis because they get used so much.
I love these little 6" round plates. There are always what I need when we are entertaining - to put out with snacks, appetizers or next to a tray of cupcakes. Since they are enamelware, they add just enough of color and charm to any setting, whether it is inside for Mother's Day or outside for a BBQ.

Works WellI've been using this dye in conjunction with Punky Color for about 4 years now and I've had nothing but great success. This bleach comes with gloves,brush and what I think is a head-cap type thing for use while the bleach is doing its thing. It's easy to mix, and since it comes with everything you need to apply it's super easy to do that too. As to its effectiveness, what can I say, it's bleach. It bleaches hair. When I was bleaching blue out of my hair it didn't quite get it all out, but that could have been my fault. It still gets the job done, in my opinion. I haven't had a bad experience with it, and I would recommend it to anyone. Especially if you're like me and you don't just have gloves and brushes laying around all the time. Not to mention the reasonable price, amiright?Jan 1, 2012CarrieHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Color Treated Hair

Best Beach Kit Ever!I just got this bleach for my hair in aug. and decided to wait til sept. I couldn't put it on by myself, so I ask my bff to do it. When she started putting the bleach in my hair for like a second. It turned it white so fast. This is the perfect solution if you want to bleach your hair fast. And my hair is dark brown and on the directions it was goin to take 45 mins to 60 mins., but it bleached my whole hair within 30 to 35 mins. I was so happy and excited at the same time. I love this product and will keep using it again and again. Thanks to folica for sell in product and a very very good price and for Jerome Russell for making the product.

Pursuing Another Way to Talk, With Civility and Honesty
How about a national night of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction instead of another debate?
This thought from Krista (@kristatippett) caught the imagination of our followers on @Beingtweets. I think it's no mere coincidence that these words found expression in the City of Brotherly Love:
In Philadelphia at the American Philosophical Society talking science and religion with oils of Ben Franklin and George Washington above.
This week, at the invitation of the Princeton Center for Theological Inquiry and the Templeton Foundation, Krista interviewed novelist Marilynne Robinson and astrophysicist Marcelo Gleiser on "the mystery we are":
Science and theology speaking together is a feast of exploring how mysterious, strange, dangerous, beautiful, and powerful we are.
By all accounts, the conversation was a smashing success. Ms. Robinson offered this useful analogy for religion:
Think of denominations as prisms. None tells the whole truth, but each tells us something about the nature of light.
Thankfully, our production staff was thinking ahead and arranged for a split-track recording of the interview. This means we'll be able to produce for our radio broadcast and podcast. Keep your eye out for this show in the coming weeks. Can't wait!
And, in the following days, Krista attended a symposium with several dozen scientists and theologians, including Robert Bellah, Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, and the Scottish theologian David Fergusson. Thankfully, Krista shared some memorable gems from the attendees:
Conversation is a kind of prayer. -Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, quoting the Babylonian Talmud. (I love this, obviously.)
There is a dialectic between the holy and the secular. -Rabbi Jonathan Sacks
There are leaps of faith in science; and faith in any life evolves.
Meanwhile, last week's interview with a musical and improvisational maestro was warmly received. Digital and marketing guru Seth Godin gave us a significant bump in traffic when he cited Krista's conversation as an example of how we can redefine productivity in terms of innovation rather than "a race to the bottom":
"Take a listen to Krista Tippett's fabulous interview with Bobby McFerrin: On Being. These conversations go to the heart of the sort of high-productivity work we create today, but would make no sense at all just a generation ago."

Speaking of beautiful human beings, long-time friend and blog contributor Pádraig Ó Tuama (@duanalla) has published a remarkable book of poetry titled Readings from the Book of Exile:
@duanalla I have been traveling with your poetry. Thank you for sending and for your long friendship from afar.
@kristatippett Krista – your work has nurtured the heart, mind & imagination for years. Honoured to have you travel with the book of exile.
Which reminds me of another book of poems Krista has been toting about…
Speaking of good with words, savoring Mary Oliver's gorgeous new collection, A Thousand Mornings.
…and sharing these lines from "I Go Down to the Shore" by Mary Oliver, whom the Irish poet calls "a sacrament in writing":
…I say, oh, I am miserable / …and the sea says / in its lovely voice: Excuse me, I have work to do.
I'll end this letter on a musical note. It's been some time since I've posted a Tuesday evening melody to our Tumblr, but this week we broke form and shared this magical song by The Civil Wars: "Barton Hollow," live from the Austin City Limits Music Festival.
Enjoy and have a splendid weekend!

Absolutely amazing!
"These shoes are truly fantastic. Great quality, great craftsmanship. They would be more comfortable if they were just a bit wider but I'm hoping that will sort itself out as they get broken in. They're very well made shoes, super cute, they're black so they will go well with anything and everything, they even came with replacements for the little tips that nail into the end of the heel.... and because they're made with real leather they smell like a new car."

I am doing a remodel and a gas pipe fitting that the plumber got out of his
truck to change the direction of a gas pipe and an large toilet elbow have
surface rust on them. The fitting probably because it had been outside at
one point and the elbow because there was a leak apparently from around the
toilet down to the lower level. Both are in the ceiling of the first level
of a house. Anyway, I had been planning to spray both of these items with
an encapsulating rust inhibiting paint but the drywaller beat me to it and
closed off access for me to get to it. Is it worth tearing the drywall off
to spray these two items. It isn't alot of drywall as one is in a small
closet and the other is under a small soffet. I am not familiar with such
situations. Does surface rust continue to eat at the pipe if not removed
and painted over? Is painting such items even worth the trouble or should I
just forget it? Thanks for your adivice.

|In response to Re: I am totally baffled
: Hello, I hope someone here can help.
: I am a second year UA apprentice in NJ and one of my mechanics gave me several code questions and 3 math ones, he loves busting my Onions.
: Can anyone please give me the answers to the following as I have been looking all over and cannot find these answers.
: 1-The strainer inlet for a 3" leader line is?
: 3- A pump is pumping 50 GPM with an efficency of 75% what is the horse power of this pump?
: Would this really be plumbing questions or is just busting my chops?
: Thank you so much, Arthur
Wow, your Journeyman must think very highly of you to ask these questions as these are normally given on tests to 4th and 5th year folks.
HP = 2.75 Double check your plumbers math book it should be in there or again E mail me
Q- Would this really be plumbing questions or is just busting my chops?
A- He is NOT busting chops he is one of the much better mechanics willing to take the time to do his job TRAIN apprentices. U/A plumbers are without a doubt the best trained in the industry STICK WITH IT. Plumbing / Fire suppression / heating are amazing professions if taken seriously.
My apprenticeship consisted of 10,000 hours training plus 744 hours class room codes and theory. PLUS going extra time (classes) to be slightly ahead of the herd
As U/A apprentice I leaned welding gas and electric and fusion to pass certifications, brazing (for medical gasses certification), lead wiping, lead burning, caulking, soldering, working with Pyrex making our own beads, blue print drawing and reading, fabricating lead pans
These types of questions appeared on my apprentice tests in the 1970s and later on several of the master plumber tests I had taken and passed.
You have a great U/A Instructor in NJ Steve Paul who instructs mathematics for the UA apprenticeship.
He and I attended the same classes as apprentices but he was one year ahead of me, he is just amazing in heating and figuring out this plumbing numbers game.
He is the plumber, great plumbers go to for advice
If you see him please send him my best.
When you finish and pass your 4th U/A year apprenticeship ILL start you off at $30 per hr
Fair enough incentive for you to finish?

Skip to comments.Poll: Federation of Republican Women (amnesty pushers)
Posted on 03/23/2013 5:02:17 PM PDT by magna carta
What Do You Think? Do you support providing a possible path to legal residency or citizenship for those brought to this country illegally as minors?
(Excerpt) Read more at nfrw.org ...
My father robbed a bank ten years ago.
Why do I have to give up my house, car, education, etc? It's not fair that I have to give the money back - he's the one who took it!
You know what I think? I think you just don't like Hispanics. If I was white, you wouldn't have any problem with me keeping the money....
Voted NO. Thank you!
Rino Women are just as stupid and traitorus as a Male Rino...
No Amnesty Period.
2. Call a halt to all immigration until the illegal alien problem has been solved.
3. Round up all the illegal aliens and send them back.
If you think that took a blue ribbon panel of PhDs, MDs, Nobel prize winners, world class experts, and lawyers to figure out, I've got some truly lovely unicorn ranch land to sell you in the mountains of Iowa.
Thanks for Voting!
Do you support providing a possible path to legal residency or citizenship for those brought to this country illegally as minors?
Yes: 62%
No: 31%
Not Sure: 6%
Number of votes: 129
Need some more NO votes!
Here is an excerpt of their letter by the Texas Chapter leader to encourage a supporting vote. This group drew up a resolution supporting the TEXAS SOLUTION. A guest-worker amnesty designed for Texas heavy hitters in the service sector and construction industry. Their control of Texas politics continually thwart citizen efforts to reign in illegal immigration. In the meantime, the Texas Solution planners have sent out their chief fast-talking lobbyist, Norman Adams an insurance salesman to push the overthrow of citizenship requirements for a Texas Drivers License. This one enforcement legislative victory was obtained in the 2011 session. Please take the poll and spread the word.
Will never happen. Policians want the votes and unions want the new dues.
Here's the excerpt:
As you know, the NFRW recently adopted a resolution regarding immigration reform based on our Texas FRW policy statement on that subject. The NFRW website now has a question posed on its home page with the verbiage coming directly from our statement. Would you please take a few seconds to go to their website, www.nfrw.org and vote on the Weekly Poll. At this time only a few have voted, so our votes will be important. A Yes vote would support our TFRW immigration reform statement as our BOD approved.
Yes: 57%
No: 37%
Not Sure: 5%
Number of votes: 142
No they havent acted in a way to display fitness to be American citizens or to stay here...
Its one thing to be brought here as illegal alien children by their illegal alien adults...
its a whole other thing when they knew they were here illegally and never said anything about their situation...
and when they turned 18 it was now their crime as well as their parents when they didnt turn themselves in and go home to get to the back of the line...
If the US government had inititated a way to retain them here if they came forward is one thing...
They might have had a clean slate and been able to apply to immigrate here the right way...
but since they are blatantly in-your-face with us forget it...
They have no respect for America and our laws...
They dont love America...
they dont even respect her...
Let's start at the beginning. The rewarding of an illegal act: Children born in the United States with parents here illegally. Any fruits of any conspiracy, criminal or civil, have always been denied, why should citizenship be a reward for the fruits of illegally entering the United States?
Same with those who have been brought here illegally - a path to citizenship creates fruits of conspiracy.
If we begin the conversation by adopting the exact same punishments as Mexico for illegal aliens, I'd entertain options. But so long as the conversation solely concentrates on the fruits of illegal behavior, and nothing on the conspiracies themselves, I'm not interested in offering any more amnesty.
That said, when someone writes..."Republican women", only two come to mind.
Lindsay Graham and (the once-heroic) J. Sidney McCain.
Yes 40%
No 55%
"My father robbed a bank ten years ago.
Why do I have to give up my house, car, education, etc?"
You don't.
I voted no also. Mostly because these folks do not travel as one. You let one come in and 15 follow.
We don't need martyrs, we need people fighting to shape the amnesty as best we can.
We need to promote the American dream instead of the centralized government corruption that most of these people are fleeing from.
FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. (multiple votes using multiple internetz devices are allowed!) And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)
so we let the kids stay , but deport their parents, aunts, uncles? Not bloody likely. Everyone will get to stay. Sounds like full amnesty to me.
61% NO now.
Voted NO. Thank you!
I'm a member of our county Federated Republican Women and several of our group are state and national members. NONE of us are for amnesty. I'm surprised this attitude towards amnesty on the national level hasn't come up at our meetings.
Guess it's time for me to ask!
This country is way beyond that. The GOP is lining up to give them the vote.
But I always wondered:
1) Why isn't it a felony for adults to bring or leave a child in here illegally?
2) Why doesn't the federal government cut off funding for schools who don't report kids who are illegal
My point is that once you let the kids grow up here and to go to school here then you have created a human sympathy drama that you cant win against. That is the reality. You see it now playing out tragically.
So as late as it is add these to the bi-partision amnesty bills as amendments.
Chris Hayes on MSNBC today said :"Republicans are deluding themselves if they think that Hispanics will vote for them just because they sign onto an immigration reform bill"
But this is exactly what McCain, Rub, Paul and the others are trying to convince us.
The RWF has always been liberal, even when and if conservatives took over individual clubs, the most liberal from each club/groups of clubs was picked for leadership.
The higher up the ranks the more liberal the women became.
C'mon, freepers, vote! This is a mini-freep. This is what we're here for, not to just sit by staring at one's screen like a lump all the time. Even if you don't like polls, vote anyhow. The results will be used in some way or other, you can count on it.
Let's pull together when we get the opportunity!
Thanks Guys...spreading it to some Euro Immi-fighters too....
Magna Carta, I went to the site looking to read about the National Federation of Republican Women officially making the push for amnesty for illegal aliens but couldn't find anything about them supporting or pushing for amnesty. All I found was the poll you listed.
Could you please point me in the direction of where you read about them promoting amnesty. Thanks!
The National Federation of Republican Women, which I am a member of through my State Federation, is a wonderful organization that does more to elect Republicans in a day this whole forum has done since it started. They asked a damn question. So what.
Magna Carta, on the National Federation of Republican Women site which you have also linked above, under their link "Current Issues" I found the page below which not only has nothing supporting your claim that the National Federation of Republican Women are promoters of amnesty for illegal aliens, or as you have labeled the group "amnesty pushers," in fact, the National Federation of Republican Women appear to be anything but "amnesty pushers."
Magna Carta, I realize that this is my second request where I am asking again, that if you do have information which supports your claim that the National Federation of Republican Women are "amnesty pushers," please post a link to an article which you feel proves your point.
If your allegations are true, it would be something I think that many would be interested in reading. Thanks!

I was president of the San Jose RWF for three years, I had to resign when I ran for office, I stand by my statement.
The farther up the chain, the more liberal they become, I do NOT care what they say their mission is.
No, it is the conservatives who do the work, and it conservatism that is rejected.
I know from experience.
Thanks for your reply, but I think you are wrong. I have heard it called "chain immigration", in which, once legal, a person may bring in relatives ahead of the line. No politician is going to deport parents of these kids who were brought here illegally.
How about simply reading the page linked to?
NEWS RELEASE: NFRW Urges Federal Government to Tackle Immigration Reform; Calls for Guest Worker Program, Legal Status for Minors
Thanks for the ping!
I was president of the San Jose RWF for three years
Should have been RFW.
I had to resign when I ran for office
I never said forced, it was the policy then that when you ran for and elected office you could not serve as an officer of a club.
I stand by my statement
Previous post.
The farther up the chain, the more liberal they become
Officers (country, region, state, national are chosen from presidents of local clubs, the most liberal are chosen, each move up the chain the most liberal are chosen, so the farther up the chain they you go the more liberal they are.
I do NOT care what they say their mission is.
I do not care what they say their mission is, they are liberal.
FReeped! Please add me to your FPFF ping list. Thx :)
Here is the position paper: http://www.tfrw.org/UserContent/UserFiles/Immigration%20Policy%20statement%20with%20Hodges%20sig.pdf
written and promoted in the Texas group. The construction/ restaurant industries control our politics and scuttle our immigration enforcement bills EVERY SINGLE TIME.They send out Insurance salesman Norman Adams and Restaurant owner Brad Bailey to the hob-nob republican luncheon circuit to keep these "Republicans" in line.
Center for immigration Studies references the Texas Solution here: http://www.cis.org/krikorian/gop-platform-jobs-jobs-jobs--illegal-aliens
Currently, this(Tx Solution) lobby is also pushing to overturn requirements for citizenship for a Texas Drivers License.
They need that poll to show they did not stray from viewpoints supported by their flock. However really they did, many were surprised by this little alignment.
You be added!
"3. Round up all the illegal aliens and send them back."
Not even needed. Just end the freebies and enforce employment laws. Once they have no goodies and no job here, they WILL be drawn back to a Mexico that is actually booming economically right now.
Like most large Republican groups these days, the NFRW is fractured. However, we all band together to do the work. And as far as Conservatism being rejected? It's our fault because we suck with our message and our messengers. As long as we keep doing exactly this...fighting about who does what and how Conservative they are, we will never regain power..and that's what it's ultimately about. Democrats know this, so they band together to make sure, no matter what, their candidates are elected, even if it's not their ideal candidate. Until we realize that, we're screwed.
I am a President of a Federated Club in Arizona, have been for four years. I did not step down when I ran for office, which I ultimately won. I'm still a President, I am Conservative and I am proud to be a member of NFRW
When I ran for assembly in CA, early '90, I was told that I could not hold office in FRW and run for an elected office.
Really? I'm surprised. I'm in Arizona. Our Governor, Jan Brewer is a member of AZFRW and I think she was a President when she ran, like me, for County Supervisor.
Did you win your office?
A liberal democrat did, it was a great experience, however.
Yes, it is. Until you run for office, you have no idea how much work it is, and how expensive it is to do it right. And that's the problem.
Tee hee!

Peaks of Otter
From Thomas Jefferson Encyclopedia
The Peaks of Otter are three mountain peaks in the Blue Ridge Mountains, overlooking the town of Bedford, Virginia. These peaks are Sharp Top (3862 feet), Flat Top (3994 feet), and Harkening Hill (3372 feet). In the fall of 1815, Thomas Jefferson, Francis Walker Gilmer, and Jose Correia da Serra left Poplar Forest to measure the elavation of the Peaks of Otter. He returned later in the year and marked out a mile long base along the Otter River with his Gunter's chain and then with his Theodolite took some angles from the summit of Sharp Top. Jefferson returned to Poplar Forest and using trigonometric calculations, computed the elevation.
Primary Source References[1]
c.1781. "The height of our mounains has not yet been estimated with any degree of exactness...The mountains of the Blue Ridge, and of these the Peak of Otter, are thought to be of a greater height, measured from their base, than any othes in our country, and perhaps in North America."[2]
1815 October 12. (Jefferson to Capt. A. Partridge). "It came opportunely, as I was about making inquiries for the height of the White Mountains of New Hampshire, which have the reputation of being the highest in our maritime States, and purpose shortly to measure geometrically the height of the Peaks of Otter, which I suppose the highest from their base, of any of the east side of the Mississippi, except the White Mountains, and not far short of their height, if the are but of 4, 885 feet...I will do myself the pleasure of sending you my estimate of the Peaks of Otter, which I count on undertaking in the course of next month."[3]
1816 January 2. (Jefferson to Alden Partridge). "I am but recently returned from my journey to the neighborhood of the Peaks of Otter...When lately measuring trigonometrically the height of the peaks of Otter...I very much wished for a barometer, to try the height by that also. But it was too far and too hazardous to carry my own, and there was not one in that neighborhood. On the subject of that admeasurement, I must promise that my object was only to gratify a common curiosity as to the height of those mountains, which we deem our highest, and to furnish an a peu pres, sufficient to satisfy us in a comparison of them with the other mountains of our own, or of other countries."[4]
1816 August 18. (Jefferson to George Flower). "On your return to Philadelphia I would recommend your passing along the valley between the blue ridge and North mountain, that is to say by the Peaks of Otter, Natural Bridge, Staunton, Winchester, Harper's ferry, Frederictown and Lancaster. You will thus have seen the two by far most interesting lines of Country of this state."[5]

It may not be Oscar, but the Golden Popcorn is undergoing quite the makeover when the MTV Movie Awards airs a refurbished version of its annual awards show in Los Angeles in June.
Among the changes announced today are five new categories including Best Music, Best On-Screen Transformation and the soon-to-be-classic Best On-Screen Dirt Bag as well as a new system of nominations based on an anonymous panel of actors, producers, industry folks and members of the MTV audience, says a press release. The network hopes that the new Academy, as its dubbing it, will add some credibility to the show and allow for a broader array of nominees that dont necessarily represent the biggest summer blockbusters (as has been the raison dêtre for the entire tween celebration in the past). Reflecting the greater selection of talent, a panel of directors will also crown the winner of a new Breakthrough Performance award.
Will that mean were going to see less Twilight and Harry Potter and more Winters Bone and Monsieur Lazhar? Probably not, but the new voting committee which will be kept anonymous should shake up the nominees just enough to reinvigorate the program and add some depth to the choices fans will face when voting opens to the public on May 1. Yes, youll still have the autonomy to pick between vampires and tributes, but MTV hopes that peppering in a little Meryl will make your choice a little more difficult.

Difference between clustering and mirroring .
- Clustering means one than one database server configured for the same user connection. When users connect, one of the server's responds and connects based on availability. The user is completely ignorant of the fact that there are more than one database servers. It demands high cost due to infrastructure needs. Clustering is hence done on server level.
- Mirroring means, one has many configured databases on the same server. Mirrors are basically copies of the original database. Mirroring is hence done on database level.
What is WATER MARK in oracle? Explain the significance of High water mark.
WATER MARK is a divided segment of used and free blocks. Blocks which are below high WATER MARK i.e. used blocks, have at least once contained some data. This data might have been deleted later. Oracle knows that blocks beyond high WATER MARK don't have data; it only reads blocks up to the high WATER MARK during a full table scan.
What is a shared pool?
Shared pool in oracle contains cache information that collects, parses, interprets and executes SQL statements that goes against database. This shared pool acts like a buffer for these SQL statements.
What are transaction isolation levels supported by Oracle?
Oracle supports 3 transaction isolation levels:
- Read committed (default)
- Serializable transactions
- Read only

Comments: This lure will not come up to the top on a slow retrieve on long cast until its too close to the boat. I tried speeding it up while keeping my line off the water, giving it a chance to float back o the top after splash down, and it wouldn't get on top until the last 30 feet of cast. It's not what I was hoping it would be.
From: Heavy: Dahlonega, Ga
Comments: It's more of a shallow running jointed crankbait in my view. That said it's a fun little bait that's very productive.
From: Robert: Battle Creek, MI
Comments: for whatever reason people are saying this thing doesnt wake they are wrong, of course you have to keep your rod tip raised. been fishing these for 2 seasons with no problems yet.
Comments: it wakes awesome for me and have caught plenty of bass on it. its reallt is a good small wakebait
Comments: Agree with Jose. Why is this a wake bait when it dives 6"-1 foot under the surface? Good action but not what I bought it.....waking ON THE SURFACE.

Comments: Mid and tail sections fell off at first use, caught in light weeds, and when pulled, only the head came back. Have the River2sea diving frog as well, but loosing confidence in this brand fast. Will stick to my chug bug.
From: George: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Comments: not sure why they call this bait a wake bait! when you start to reel it in it goes about 6" under the surface!
From: Jose: Torrance, CA
Comments: I bought this bait as a cheaper alternative to the Jackall Mikey Jr. which has proven to be an exceptional bait. I was dubious that the V-Joint Wake would stack up, but for $8 I could live with an underperformer. I was very pleasantly surprised. It has an action that is every bit as lively as the Jackall. The finish is great and the hardware is rock solid. It has excellent hooks but the hooks are a bit smaller than come on the Jackall. An excellent buy for the TW's price.

Amanda Knox: Murder on Trial in Italy premiered on Lifetime last night and it was, in a word, awesome. Starring Hayden Panettiere as Amanda Knox and Marcia Gay Harden as Amanda's mother Edda Mellas, (because Lifetime must have a contract that stipulates that Marcia Gay Harden play the mother in every movie.) The movie is told from a pretty impartial point of view; Amanda Knox is never shown confessing to the murders, but her apathy reveals a darker side that the Italian police and media found so troubling.
What is it about a good Lifetime movie that is so sweetly satisfying? Every time I curl up with a Lifetime flick, I feel like I'm giving myself a present. Check out the highlights reel below and do yourself a favor: see the movie.

Great shoe, runs big
"I needed a new pair of neutral shoes for work. These are great, love the shade of pinkish tan. They run about half a size long. I am typically an 8.5 and had to return for an 8. Overall great, classic pump!"

Great pair of comfortable heels for professionals!
"I bought these to replace my much-beloved pair of Steve Madden Echo heels which finally bit the dust. I wanted another pair of SMs, but there's not a single pair of SM basic black heels from the past couple of years with a heel under 3"! I needed a new pair to wear with my suits for a professional conference and bought these online. They arrived the day before I left and I was nervous that they would be uncomfortable and I didn't have a backup.Never fear! I have a flat foot and can frequently get blisters or arch pain from heels and I had neither with this pair. As other reviewers have noted, they come a little long. I intentionally did not order a half-size smaller because I was afraid that would make them too tight/uncomfortable/blister-genic. I probably could have ordered them a half-size smaller than usual as I did slip out of them once or twice but I'm still worried that would have been too tight given the shape of my foot. I think I will put a piece of moleskin at the back instead. I have absolutely no complaints and am considering buying a pair in another color."

Sarah Longair, education manager, British Museum
We spend much of our time here at the Museum analysing, researching and contextualising objects and finding ways to communicate effectively with our visitors. So when the chance to bring a fresh perspective on our collection comes along, it's always a great moment: challenging us and our visitors to think again.
Late in July, the result of an exciting collaboration between the British Museum and a group of Year 12 students from Camden School for Girls went on show in Room 90 in the display: 'Isolation: from text to image'.
The project originated late last year, when Hugo Chapman, Keeper of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum, and our Schools and Young Audiences team decided to invite students to curate a display of works from the collection. We particularly wanted to encourage an innovative yet relevant approach to looking at the collection so we approached English literature students and asked them to use texts they are studying as inspiration. The literary sources, which included Hamlet, the Great Gatsby, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, John Osborne's Look back in Anger and Keats's poetry, would definitely give varied and intriguing possibilities through which to look at the collection.
From those who applied, an enthusiastic, inquisitive and thoughtful group of 12 students was selected to participate as an extra-curricular activity. We were very impressed by their commitment during two very busy school terms. I went to the school to deliver seminar-style sessions at the end of the school day and the group came to the Museum several times. During the Museum sessions, we discussed different approaches to drawing inspiration from images, the varied ways in which their texts related to images, how to measure and evaluate audience behaviour and practiced writing a succinct but engaging display label.
In one of the early discussion sessions, students selected 'isolation' as a theme which bound their texts together. From a long-list created by curators, the students selected prints and drawings to look at in the Museum's print room.
One of the students explained how access to the original print, after seeing reproductions, was a powerful experience:
"Seeing these images gradually unfurled from their protective cloths, amid the hush of the Prints and Drawings room, is not one I will forget in a very long time."
Left with the freedom to write creatively, they experimented in a variety of styles: in prose and poetry; as a participant in the image; from the perspective of the artist; as a character from their set text. From these various experiments, they created a final label for their selected print.
Together they decided how to arrange the works – an exercise in diplomacy for all concerned – and joined in with hanging them. One of them described their overall experience:
"The result is an exhibition that is incredibly varied. You will find a drawing by the seventeenth century Italian artist Giulio Benso beside modern artists such as Isidoro Ocampo and George Bellows. Linking such images to set texts has proved fascinating – even with prints and drawings that appeared to have concrete interior storylines, it was possible to illustrate our individual responses to our chosen texts, whether through creative or analytical writing.
If our accompanying texts make you look again at the image we have been describing, we've done our job. The result is an exhibition that is not only the culmination of an incredible learning process, but also one of which we are all genuinely proud."
We were extremely impressed by the students' thoughtful interpretations which really do make you look again at the image. We'd like to thank them for their commitment to this unique project and we hope that visitors will also be excited by this fresh perspective on the collection from these young writers.
Isolation: from text to image is on display in Room 90 until 3 September 2012

This site has information about air toxics and what is being done in Broward County and throughout the United States to minimize exposure to toxic air pollutants (also know as Hazardous Air Pollutants – HAPs). You can also learn about air toxics health effects and the things you can do to help reduce emissions.
Air Toxics are poisonous substances in the air that can come from natural or man-made sources, and can be harmful to the environment and your health. An example of a natural toxic air pollutant is radon gas coming up from the ground, while an example of a man-made air toxic would be chemical compounds given off by a factory smokestack. Inhaling toxic air pollutants can increase your chances of experiencing health problems. For instance, if you inhale the benzene fumes that are given off when you pump gas into your car, your chances of experiencing health problems associated with exposure to benzene will increase.

Robert Olilver graduated on May 14 from the S J Quinney College of Law at the University of Utah.
In his first year of law school he received awards in legal writing and received one of the top grades in his legal writing course each semester. In his second year he competed in the Law School's Traynor Moot Court competition. With his partner, he went undefeated through the preliminary rounds, the elimination rounds, and eventually won the entire competition. Based on this performance in the school competition, he qualified for the school's national team and competed in the National Moot Court competition. In addition to excelling in Moot Court and Legal Writing, during his time at the school he interned at the Rocky Mountain Innocence Center, a non-profit organization that researches the causes of wrongful convictions and investigates cases of actual innocence.
During his time with the Rocky Mountain Innocence Center, he was assigned a case to investigate and interviewed police officers, and witnesses to determine if the defendant was actually innocent. In addition to working with the Rocky Mountain Innocence Center, he interned at Salt Lake Legal Defenders. During his time at Salt Lake Legal Defenders he assisted with providing legal representation to poor defendants. In addition, under Utah's rules he was able to appear and participate in several jury trials. Because of this work at the Rocky Mountain Innocence Center and Salt Lake Legal Defenders, he was nominated for a clinical service award.
Robert graduated from C.E.U. with an associate degree in psychology, and from Weber State with his bachelor degree in criminal justice with a minor in psychology. He is a graduate of Emery High and is the son of Alfred and Yvonne Oliver of Elmo. He married Sarah Jean Curtis of Orangeville. They have two boys, Dalyn age 7, and Kaden 2 months.
Robert will take the Utah State Bar Exam in July.

Huguette Plourde
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Jean-Claude D'Amours Madawaska—Restigouche, NB
Mr. Speaker, I would like to acknowledge the dedication of someone who is very involved in my riding of Madawaska—Restigouche.
Recently, Huguette Plourde of Saint-Léonard received the Racine provincial and regional award as intervener of the year in the field of cultural development.
The Racine award in the intervener of the year category is awarded to professionals or volunteers from a member organization who stand out for their exceptional dedication to cultural development within their community. The recipient of the provincial title of intervener of the year is selected from among the recipients from each region.
Huguette Plourde is actively involved in the Association culturelle du Haut-Saint-Jean and works tirelessly to promote cultural development.
Obviously, any individual who is as involved as Ms. Plourde plays a key role in the development of our communities and deserves our most heartfelt congratulations and our support.
This is why I wanted to acknowledge in this House today the valiant efforts of Huguette Plourde.
Tommy Douglas
Statements By Members

Ed Broadbent Ottawa Centre, ON
Mr. Speaker, there are few human beings whose particular mix in qualities make us all stand and say "This is greatness". Such was the incredible Tommy Douglas.
First for the people of Saskatchewan, then for all Canadians, he brought to public life integrity, courage, humour and most of all, to use a phrase appropriate to his generation, a passionate commitment to the common man.
More than any other he led in transforming a nation. Tommy showed how political power in a democracy should be used, not to keep the people down but to raise them up. His political firsts were many, among them: workers' rights, pensions, and of course health care as a right of citizenship.
As premier and then here as leader of the New Democratic Party, his respect for the dignity of others brought him the affection of his political opponents. It earned him the admiration of all Canadians. Last night, on the CBC, a grateful nation paid homage to his greatness.
Canada-U.S. Relations
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Jeff Watson Essex, ON
Mr. Speaker, the people of Essex extend a warm welcome to George Bush, President of our friend and greatest trading partner, the United States. We look for solutions to problems at the Essex-Windsor border, the busiest crossing in the world with $1 million per minute of trade.
This Liberal government has mismanaged our critical trade relationship, jeopardizing Canadian jobs with anti-American insults, lax marijuana laws and a Prime Minister who has failed to build border infrastructure and get our borders opened to Canadian exports.
The people of Essex have paid a steep price as a result: major seed contracts, lost; suppliers to local businesses, lost; auto jobs, lost; and major investments in our region, lost. The Prime Minister must seize upon the visit of President Bush to make amends and set a new course for healthy relations with the U.S.
If he will not, then let him step aside and a Conservative government will do it for him.
Visit of U.S. President
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Monique Guay Rivière-du-Nord, QC
Mr. Speaker, we welcome U.S. President George W. Bush and his wife to Ottawa and wish him a successful term of office following his re-election.
Winning freedom and building peace represent the essence of humanity. The people of Quebec denounce and strongly condemn terrorism as well as attacks on human rights in any form, but we are also firmly opposed to the unnecessary use of weapons and the militarization of space.
We hope that the President's visit will pave the way for the resolution of the Canada-U.S. disputes concerning softwood lumber and the mad cow crisis, among others. Tens of thousands of families across Quebec and Canada are suffering and paying the price for these disputes every day.
The American people are our neighbours as well as our natural allies, and the people of Quebec reiterate their friendship for them.
Canada-U.S. Relations
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Myron Thompson Wild Rose, AB
Mr. Speaker, today is a great day in the relationship between two good friends, the United States and Canada.
Although Mr. Bush may encounter many protesters today, I am confident that he realizes they do not represent the views of all Canadians. I also hope that the protesters understand that our democracy allows them the freedom to protest. Before the U.S. coalition brought democracy to countries such as Afghanistan, a protest like this would have never been tolerated there.
I know the President understands that democracy often comes at a cost and is paid for by the members of our military. My family is extremely proud of my youngest son, Dennis, who is currently serving in the U.S. Army and has just recently returned from Iraq.
I stand with many Canadian military parents who have children serving in the Canadian, U.S., Australian and British militaries. I want them to know I share in their sacrifice and support them 100%.
Sikh Community
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Gary Carr Halton, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise today in this House to convey my heartfelt greetings and good wishes to the members of the Sikh community on the auspicious occasion of Gurpurab, which the community celebrated this past weekend across Canada. It marks the celebration of Guru Nanak Dev Ji's birthday. He was the founder of the Sikh religion and one of the greatest spiritual teachers known to humanity.
He preached that all religions were a different path leading to the same destination and therefore deserved the respect of all. His message reached all sectors of society and thus became the foundation upon which Sikhdom developed. The teaching of the guru served as an inspiration not only to Sikhs but to all humankind.
This historic event in the Sikh religion draws families and friends together in a spirit of goodwill, peace and preserving our community's legacy of cultural diversity upon which Canada is founded.
I ask the Sikh community across Canada to please accept my best wishes along with those of my parliamentary colleagues for a most meaningful celebration.
National Defence
Oral Question Period
November 30th, 2004 / 2:15 p.m.
Peter MacKay Central Nova, NS
Mr. Speaker, Thomas Axworthy, former aide to former prime minister Pierre Trudeau, says that "while Americans continue to like us, they no longer respect us".
Among other things, Canada shares with the United States the defence of North America and a commitment to fight terrorism. Yet Mr. Axworthy notes that the government's under-spending on the military has now reached a crisis level and that within five years we will have no usable armed forces left.
How does the government expect Canada to positively influence our American neighbours when we continually fail to pull our weight in continental and world affairs?
National Defence
Oral Question Period
2:15 p.m.
Toronto Centre
Bill Graham Minister of National Defence
Mr. Speaker, I can only wish that the hon. member and all hon. members had been in the room with us just a couple of hours ago with President Bush. He looked across the table and said to me, when we were talking about the defence of North America and what we were doing around the world, "Your troops are among the most admired in the world. Our generals admire them. We work with them. We absolutely want more of you".
They do not want that sort of rhetoric. They want more real assets, not words.
Oral Question Period
2:15 p.m.
Peter MacKay Central Nova, NS
Mr. Speaker, no one is disputing that, least of all the Conservative Party of Canada. We have to support our armed forces.
The American border has been closed now to Canadian cattle for over 18 months. Farmers are desperate. The best assurance program that the government can give would be to announce a firm date when the border will be open.
On Sunday the Minister of Foreign Affairs told us that President Bush would be proposing a timetable with clear commitments to open the border. Later, the minister's aides tried to retract that commitment.
Could the Prime Minister affirm whether there is in fact a fixed timetable to reopen the Canadian border so that cattle can get in to the United States?
Oral Question Period
2:20 p.m.
Parry Sound—Muskoka
Andy Mitchell Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food
Mr. Speaker, there was no retraction. The reality is that a week ago the Americans announced that the rule had moved from the USDA to the OMB. The OMB process is one that has a time-specific timeline on it of 90 days. It is that clock that has begun to run. We were pleased to see that particular progress. I was pleased to hear the President today make a commitment to move that process along as expeditiously as possible.
Softwood Lumber
Oral Question Period
2:20 p.m.
Peter MacKay Central Nova, NS
Mr. Speaker, in spite of the WTO and NAFTA decisions in our favour on the softwood issue, the Liberal government has failed to get the borders reopened. John Manley said that a good relationship is essential in order to resolve disputes.
Did the Prime Minister succeed in convincing Mr. Bush to put an end to protectionism?
Softwood Lumber
Oral Question Period
2:20 p.m.
Edmonton Centre
Anne McLellan Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness
Mr. Speaker, let me reassure the hon. member that the Prime Minister and the President had a very good set of meetings this morning. I was honoured to be present at two of those meetings.
Let me reassure the hon. member that this is in fact a very positive relationship. It is a strong relationship. Each of us as ministers works with our counterparts to deliver on our shared objectives. Let me reassure the hon. member that the Canada-U.S. relationship is not only unique, it is strong, and we are proud of our relationship with our friends.
Canada-U.S. Relations
Oral Question Period
2:20 p.m.
Belinda Stronach Newmarket—Aurora, ON
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of International Trade. Yesterday at the standing committee the Minister of Foreign Affairs suggested that he did not need face time in Washington to build that critical relationship. He actually suggested that some dinners at international meetings, some telephone calls and BlackBerry messages would suffice.
The BSE border closure has cost Canadian industries $5 billion, and almost $4 billion in softwood money lies threatened by the Byrd amendment. Obviously BlackBerry messages are not good enough. Beyond the President's visit today, what are the minister's plans to build a more productive political relationship with the U.S.?
Canada-U.S. Relations
Oral Question Period
2:20 p.m.
Jim Peterson Minister of International Trade
Mr. Speaker, first of all, the Prime Minister announced on April 29 that we would open an advocacy secretariat in Washington. That secretariat is now open.
Second, we have the enhanced representation initiative of the Government of Canada. We have opened seven new consulates in the United States and have upgraded two in status. I attended at the Miami opening two weeks ago. In addition, we have appointed 20 honorary consuls. We take this relationship very seriously.
Softwood Lumber
Oral Question Period
2:20 p.m.
Belinda Stronach Newmarket—Aurora, ON
Mr. Speaker, the U.S. President is making his first official visit to Canada only after four years in office. This is nothing for the government to crow about.
On the Byrd amendment, consulting Canadian business will not help to repeal it. Had the Liberal government implemented a high level political strategy for the U.S. a long time ago, we might not even be facing Byrd.
The European Union and six other countries are in the same boat with us on Byrd. Could the Minister of International Trade tell Canadian softwood producers why he is not taking the lead in organizing ministers from these other like-minded countries to push as a group for the repeal of Byrd?
