Pelosi: Planned Parenthood Relationship to Girl Scouts Very Valuable By Elizabeth Harrington February 1, 2012
(CNSNews.com) House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Planned Parenthoods relationship with the Girl Scouts of America is very valuable, Wednesday, at a congressional reception to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of the organization for young girls.
Rep. Pelosi was featured at the reception with a group of female government leaders to promote the Girl Scouts new initiative To Get Her There, which seeks to create gender balanced leadership in one generation.
After the event CNSNews.com asked Pelosi: The Girl Scouts has had some ties to Planned Parenthood, do you think thats a valuable relationship to have working together?
The Girl Scouts have relationships with many organizations, Rep. Pelosi replied.
And, yes, I think they are all very valuable.
The Girl Scouts have been linked to the nations largest abortion provider in the past. In 2010, a panel sponsored by the Girl Scouts USA at the United Nations Commission featured a Planned Parenthood pamphlet called Healthy, Happy and Hot," according to published reports.
A portion of the pamphlet read: Many people think sex is just about vaginal or anal intercourse. But there are lots of different ways to have sex and lots of different types of sex. Sex can include kissing, touching, licking, tickling, sucking and cuddling. Some people like to have aggressive sex, while others like to have soft sex and slow sex with their partners. There is no right or wrong way to have sex. Just have fun, explore and be yourself!
(Excerpt) Read more at cnsnews.com ...
As a Catholic, I continue to be embarrassed at all the fake Democrat Catholics that populate high positions in our government.
I find it ironic that some of the biggest abortion advocates present some of strongest reasons for (at least) SOME abortions.
Pathetic. . .
They are probably Catholic in the sense that they were "born Catholic", not that they actually accepted Christ into their lives or have any sort of relationship with him. They are simply CINO (Catholic in name only)
Are you effin' kidding me? Now, more than ever, I am convinced to never enroll my daughter in this cesspool.
When confronted by little girls who hit me up to buy cookies, I always smile and say "No, thank you."
What I'm thinking is another story. I'm thinking how I'd like to set their mothers straight on how there is a direct link between the Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood. And that I'll NEVER buy no damm cookies from any organization that has ties to baby murderers.
But I just smile and say "No, thank you."
At least for now....
Girl Scouts does not have "ties" to Planned Parenthood anymore that do an entire body of nonprofit organizations all attending the same conferences and whose membership is all exposed to the same literature and references, which does not transfer to endorsement.
Pelosi again stuck her stupid foot in her stupid mouth. She would have babbled the same answer if asked about Vatican "ties to planned parenthood" by mutual membership in UN organizations, NGO's and international nonprofits
CNS is on a peculiar vendetta against Girl Scouts.
Howz' 'bout Condom Cookies? Little cookies shaped like a new condom. Great for little girls, huh?
Haven't bought any of these high priced and "growing smaller each year" cookies for many years because of this. Disgusting. Anyone and everyone whose daughters are in any way involved in Girl Scouts should be ashamed of themselves.
Where'ya been? Are you serious?
There is no direct link between Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood.
Now, maybe there is a direct link between your church (if not Catholic, nuns excepted) and planned parenthood. The Red Cross and planned parenthood. The UN and planned parenthood. The NEA and other teachers unions and the labor and other unions and planned parenthood. The democrat party of the US and planned parenthood. All govt subsidized hospitals and universities and planned parenthood. The federal taxes you pay and planned parenthood.
But why don't you just set us all "straight" on this direct link with Girl Scouts. I bet you read about it on the internet, huh?
Have you not seen all the facts about this and stories about their relationship in the last month or even done a search?
Such as?
I would respond with a "WTF??" comment.
But I see you are rather dense on the issue and other FReepers have already attempted to set you straight.
So rather than provide you with links on the GS/PP connection - I'll just let you happily bask in your own ignorance.
Or have a coat hanger in each box of cookies. They'll have the color of the month and special, collectible, limited-edition coat hangers that are hand-made by Chinese convicts who are later slaughtered for organ harvesting!
Been in Girl Scouts for 50+ years.
Prove a "direct link".
Cite facts.
References to family planning resources in books for teens, about teenage health issues? Good luck with purging that.
Abortion is legal in this country and part of any dialogue among teens.
One might say good people talking about it, not ignoring it, is the way to persuade girls to feel free to abhor it.
Tangential presence of teen Girl Scout reps at a UN conference meeting several years where sex literature from a 3rd party was left in the room? Bad but unplanned.
Stupid comment in 2004 by former GSUSA CEO Cloninger about GS "partnerships" in "many communities"? She is gone. Misspoke, and becoming ancient history except to CNS.
"Come here my little prettys"
Have you addressed this directly with Girl Scout officials?
I have

Is that all you got?
No facts, so shoot and duck.
Buh bye.
ah yes I have, my daughter pulled herself out of it and we addressed it to the leader
She too had no idea but did some research and now is thinking of dropping the troop.
BTW She is a very nice conservative lady but she said she felt sick the the stomach when she did her own research.
I hope this video of the CEO of the Girl Scouts saying they partner with Planned Parenthood to bring information based sex education to girls acceptable...even if I found it on that darned internet.
Back at ya, troll.
See post 22.
Wonder how many potential girl scouts got sliced up and sucked out.
Bet they would like to have had some input on this "choice".
I see you were already aware of the quote which you claim was stupid and "she misspoke".
Pardon me for believing the CEO of the Girl Scouts.
and what church is that?
does it have ties to any national or international organizations that have "ties" to family planning? All are extremely liberal (why I left)
and so do the Jews from what I know.
How about Salvation Army? Red Cross? UN? Ties to PP.
Your church immmunize its work from their agencies and literature?
If you want to find ties between PP and virtually any organization (some you are part of), you can do it
Did you READ the article I gave you? You are not responding to it at all....just more fluffy comments. Broken record.
Have you even noticed that all those stories in those links refer repeatedly to the same 3 things?
GSUSA CEO Kathy Cloninger's stupid comments in 2004. She is gone.
That UN youth conference in 2010 where a non-GS organzation left shockingly distasteful youth sex literature in the room where the GS were among teens attending a meeting. Literature not produce by, distributed by, or planned for the conference by GS.
References to family planning topics and links for teenage girls to research in teenage womens health literature. As if this constituted GS promotion of abortion anymore that similar literature at schools, colleges, doctors offices and even many churches.
Is that all they got?
What is the anger really about?
I do fault GS for trying so hard to become "socially relevant" and "hip" to teenage girls and doing way too much touchy feely "leadership" "girl power" workshop crap ... and closing down too many camps.
You lost me. All the girls scouts I knew when I was a kid had plenty of hangers, and they already knew how to hang their coats. I suspect the same is true for the 8 year olds I see selling cookies now. So why would they include coat hangers?
The answer straight from GIRL SCOUT HQ IS
Girl Scouts HAS NO DIRECT TIES TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD.
We are a federated organization
The Councils are free to make their own relationships and partnerships, as part of the United Way and other nonprofit community participants.
Nation's Capitol and Baltimore Councils, which is where cookie money that does not go direct to the troops stays, HAVE NO TIES TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD. NONE. NADA. ZIP.
Furthermore, we GS Troops and Councils don't make donations. We receive them.
The priest in the parish cited in the article was obviously confused if quoted correctly, because "WAGGGS" (World Associationof Girl Scouts and Girl Guides) is the international Scouting organzation based in London. Yes, we are members of the international organization of 145 countires that have GS and GG.
But so is Boy Scouts a member of a World Scouting Organization that embraces homosexuals and mixed sex troops, unlike BSUSA.
The international scouting organizations for boys and for girls are very liberal, dominated by europeans and growing 3rd worlders (surprise), and heavily tied to the United Nations agenda.
Mostly, I and every other leader I know....ignores them, and mostly ignores National too.
Maybe they get $2 of our $12 annual GSUSA membership fee.
One final fluffy ill-informed comment from me. Did you know England has more girls joined in Boy Scouts (now just called Scouts) than it does boys? It ain't Robert Baden-Powell's Boy Scouts ay more.
read what I just posted

There is a difference between purging it and the Girl Scouts PROMOTING it.
Abortion is legal in this country and part of any dialogue among teens.
I guess we should be grateful that the Girl Scouts weren't around to promote slavery.
One might say good people talking about it, not ignoring it, is the way to persuade girls to feel free to abhor it.
Is this your way of saying that abortion should be "safe and legal and rare" or that it's "above your paygrade"?
Tangential presence of teen Girl Scout reps at a UN conference meeting several years where sex literature from a 3rd party was left in the room? Bad but unplanned.
The UN's agenda is hardly a secret. If the Girl Scout reps didn't know they should have.

Pelosi also said: 'Planned Parenthood is nice to have associated wth the Girl Scouts in case a boy who thinks he's a girl decides to try lesbian sex while camping and makes the girl pregnant.'/s

Responsibility2nd has links about the connection between Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood; I'm pinging both lists because GS also teach and promote all kinds of leftist immoral agendas including premarital/extramarital sex and homosexuality. They AREN'T your grandmother's Girl Scouts.
Oops - I had an open window ready to post and went and did things, and came back and hit "post".
It's a good thread with good info, so I guess it's okay!
Cite facts? Howz' this? Direct link:
Among other things, the article says this: "In recent years, the Girl Scouts have tacked left, and criticism has mountedover their programs and their partnerships with Americas leading abortion provider, Planned Parenthood.
(As an aside, the Scouts mislead families and churches into believing that they have no relationship with Planned Parenthood at any level) They maintain that Girl Scouts of the USA [i.e. the national office] does not have a relationship or partnership with Planned Parenthood, but say nothing about the many local Girl Scout councils that do partner with Planned Parenthood and its teen subsidiaries.
Concerned Scouts and their parents have publicized and documented the Girl Scouts liberal bent. And theyve asked for changes.
The Girl Scouts consistently respond as if the reported problems are small brush fires that erupt sporadically because people are careless. And they project the impression that these brush fires would die out on their own, but for the hysterical bystandersconservatives, of coursewho shriek at the first wisp of smoke."
Then add to that that the national office brags (did I say brag?) that 85% of their staff are lesbians, and you can see (if you really want to) that the whole organization is corrupt as hell.
And by the way, the statement you made about abortion being legal, well, so was slavery. Each and every abortion is premeditated murder upon the most helpless of unborn Americans. Too bad you feel as you do. There used to be Christianity in Girl Scouts . . . but not no more! Huh?
Embarrassed? Frightened is more like it. I wish the Bishops would speak out more against Catholics who support abortion and same sex marriage. How come they continue to receive the Eucharist?
The Bishops waited to speak out on these issues until the horse was out of the barn. Maybe if we had heard more from them earlier,Obama wouldn't have had the nerve to remove the conscience claus from ObamaCare.
"As a Catholic, I continue to be embarrassed at all the fake Democrat Catholics that populate high positions in our government."
I am embarrassed that neither the last pope nor this one has declared them anathema.
The filth of the butcher ...
Vladimir Lenin would be proud of Madam Pelosi - not as in "madam speaker," but as a Madam trying to indoctrinate and prostitute young girls for Planned Parenthood.
WASHINGTON, February 2, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) - When asked about Girl Scouts of Americas (GSUSA) connections to Planned Parenthood, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said that the relationship between the two groups is very valuable.
CNSNews.com asked the former House Speaker following a Girl Scouts-sponsored event, The Girl Scouts has had some ties to Planned Parenthood, do you think thats a valuable relationship to have working together?
The Girl Scouts have relationships with many organizations, and, yes, I think they are all very valuable, Pelosi replied.
Pelosi had been featured at the reception to promote To Get Her There, a new initiative by GSUSA to promote womens leadership. While the national branch of Girl Scouts has recently been denying the organizations relationship with Planned Parenthood, on March 5, 2004 Girl Scouts CEO Kathy Cloninger admitted on NBCs The Today Show: We partner with many organizations. We have relationships with Planned Parenthood organizations across the country.
In national survey in 2004, sixteen Girl Scout councils admitted to partnering with Planned Parenthood, around 25% of the councils who responded to the survey. Most did not respond, however.
The Girl Scouts/Planned Parenthood controversy erupted anew in 2010 after it was revealed that the scouting group distributed a graphic sex education pamphlet by Planned Parenthood entitled Happy, Healthy, and Hot during an event at the United Nations headquarters. Last month, a Catholic parish in Virginia banned the Girl Scouts from meeting on church grounds over the Planned Parenthood connection.
In January a teenage Girl Scout employee who wore a Pray to End Abortion t-shirt to work during off-duty hours was ordered to turn the t-shirt inside out or leave.

You probably saw this coming, but a bevy of spring denim looks are popping up everywhere. Glory be, if more tastefully-done denim (not just chambray) dresses make it out to retailers in the coming months. I've already seen some lovely Acne/Lanvin 2010 reveals. Yummers! And, what makes this year different in the world of accessorizing your fave denim looks, is, the shoes aren't getting any smaller. They may be phasing out large vehicles like The Hummer, but super-sized shoes aren't going away anytime soon. Haven't they injured enough girls on the runway yet?

Kurt Browning's 92 SP! Where Kurt was playing the Hindu God of War or whatever. Random weird hand movements, bad costume (Kurt's. I like Jeremy's), weird program concept... But Kurt's was fast and powerful and exciting... Jeremy's not so much.
Kurt Browning's 92 SP! Where Kurt was playing the Hindu God of War or whatever. Random weird hand movements, bad costume (Kurt's. I like Jeremy's), weird program concept... But Kurt's was fast and powerful and exciting... Jeremy's not so much.
I wasn't fond of Kurt's costume , but at least it was one thing.To me, Jeremy's costume is far worse. I've been trying to understand the reasoning behind it. Is it supposed to reflect the Flamenco - Tango fusion ? Please , I don't need to be beaten over the head with it. I can hear it. I can see it in some of the movements. If that's the idea behind the costume, it's overkill, almost to the point of being insulting and it detracts from the skating and the program.
No, what I thought we were going to get was a CoP-friendly competitive program reminiscent of this ...
....especially since the first time we saw this SP, Jeremy wore identical attire. I, for one , was ready for it . Kurt's arm movements are controlled , beautiful , masculine...and flamenco flavoured. The bare arms allow you to fully appreciate what those arms are doing and with the overall simplicity of his attire, you are absolutely focusing on his skating and how he uses his whole body . In a fully lit competition setting , tight sleeves would work as well , maybe better (if bare arms would be considered inappropriate..), and almost any colour would do ...well , maybe not neons ..
I agree with layfan that it could still be fixed and with prokofiev that the intricate hand movements when he's just stroking are unnecessary and silly...they just seem like filler. (I don't mind the ones at the opening of the program )..and I think seniorita is right , there's far too much wrist rotation. Male flamenco dancers use that far less than the females and male Tango dancers never, that I know of..so what's it all in aid of ?
The purist in me absolutely adores his skating; he reminds me of all the greats that came before him going all the way back to the very beginning.
Obviously, Jeremy's busy wrist movements were the style that Antonio gave to him. It's not Jeremy's creation. Antonio knows better what style it was. I think people would feel it's inadequate if the program's choreography had been watered down. So I believe it's the best to keep it like it was. What Jeremy could do, though, was to emphasis more on the control and pause of the movements, and keep the lyrical moves in check all the time - which he hasn't. After all, it was a fast paced, packed, extremely difficult SP for which not many skaters could manage.

Yes, the Flamenco expert dancer, Antonio Najarro, did this choreography for him. But could be he doesn't understand what goes well with figure skating. When you watch this dance it seems to me that the arm movements are more important than what they do with their feet. They are actually sitting down and dancing. Like for Jeremy it's the arms that catch your eyes. Not good for a single figure skater I think.
Viejos Aires is not my music and I find the arm movements distracting, but I am sure I 'll get to love the program eventually because it is Jeremy Anyway I think he is courageous and it seems like a very difficult program.
Btw, I am sure if ice dancers did these arm movements there would not have been the same negative reactions.
Now we've seen both Joubert's and Abbott's SP. I think Abbott's was much closer to Spanish style, and I like his SP music better. If he could keep focusing on the masculine moves, this SP could very well become another masterpiece ...only if he could change his costume.

By Holbrook Mohr/The Associated Press
JACKSON — The Coast Guard is letting southbound vessels pass through a closed section of the Mississippi River at Vicksburg as it evaluates how traffic would affect efforts to remove and clean up oil from a leaking barge, a Guard officer said Wednesday.
Chief Petty Officer Paul Roszkowski told The Associated Press that a 16-mile stretch of the river remained technically closed four days after two barges struck a railroad bridge, even though some barges are being allowed to pass.
Roszkowski said southbound barges are being allowed to pass "methodically and slowly" so crews can assess the effects on cleanup operations. If all goes well, the Coast Guard will permit test runs with northbound barges on Wednesday afternoon.
"We understand the huge impact this (closure) is making on vessel traffic on the Mississippi River," Roszkowski said.
But, he added, "It's critical that the vessels going through there don't affect our operations."
A Coast Guard "safety zone" extends the width of the river for 16 miles, which means it is effectively closed because barges must have permission to pass, he said.
Petty Officer 1st Class Matt Schofield said Wednesday that 55 vessels, including towboats, and 834 barges had been idled at the closed section of the river, one of the nation's vital north-south commerce routes.
The leaking barge has been pushed against the Louisiana shore, across from Vicksburg's Riverwalk and Lady Luck casinos, since Sunday's crash.
The Coast Guard said 7,000 gallons of crude oil were unaccounted for, but it's not clear if it all spilled into the river or if some seeped into empty spaces inside the barge.
Schofield said the Coast Guard hopes to start pumping oil from the leaking barge onto another barge — a process known as lightering — on Wednesday.
"We'd like to be optimistic and start doing it as soon as we can, but there are a lot of things that could change between now and then," Schofield said.
Severe weather that swept through the area overnight Tuesday shut down cleanup operations for a time, but crews were working again Wednesday morning, Schofield said.
Schofield said Wednesday that oil is still seeping from the damaged barge, but crews were "able to recover it faster than it's coming out."
The oil that spilled at Vicksburg would fill about two-thirds of a 10,500-gallon tank truck. When it spilled, water flowing under the bridge would have filled more than 600 such trucks in a second.
Crews have been working to contain and remove oil since the barge, owned by Corpus Christi, Texas-based Third Coast Towing LLC, struck the railroad bridge and began leaking early Sunday. The company has refused to comment.
The Coast Guard said the environmental impact has been minimal because a boom is containing the leak around the barge and the leak is slow. Crews are using a skimmer to collect the oil.
The closure has been costly for the shipping industry.
Ron Zornes, director of corporate operations for Canal Barge Co. of New Orleans, said each idled towboat could cost a company anywhere from $10,000 to $100,000 a day. The low end would be for a single boat with a couple of barges and the high end for boat in "a system of towboats that acts sort of like a bus system."
"So if one bus is stopped, it gums up the whole system," he said.
About 168.4 million tons of cargo a year move along the Mississippi River between Baton Rouge, La., and the mouth of the Ohio River, carried by nearly 22,300 cargo ships and 162,700 barges, according to the Army Corps of Engineers. About 3.6 million tons of cargo are handled annually by the port of Vicksburg.
When low water threatened to close the river earlier this month, the tow industry trade group American Waterways Operators estimated that 7.2 million tons of commodities worth $2.8 billion might be sidelined over the last three weeks of January.
Nature's Way Marine LLC of Theodore, Ala., has been named the responsible party for the oil spill, a designation that is assigned under the federal Oil Pollution Act.
The barges were being pushed by the company's tug Nature's Way Endeavor. The company has also declined requests for information.
Companies found responsible for oil spills face civil penalties tied to the amount of oil that spilled into the environment.
Coast Guard Petty Officer 3rd Class Jonathan Lally said Tuesday it's too early in the investigation to know if the company could face penalties or fines.
The Nature's Way Endeavor was pushing two tank barges when the collision with the bridge happened about 1:30 a.m. Sunday, authorities said. Both barges were damaged, but only one leaked. Authorities declared the bridge safe after an inspection.
The leaking tank, which was pierced above the water line, was carrying 80,000 gallons of light crude, authorities said. The Coast Guard hasn't said how much oil was in the other tanks on the barge.
Associated Press writer Janet McConnaughey in New Orleans contributed to this report.

Why We Made this ChangeAt SmartPak, our vision has always been to do more than simply sell horse supplies. Since founding the business 15 years ago, we've strived to become a trusted partner on your horse's care team, alongside your veterinarian, by bringing you the SmartPak system, supplements that deliver great results, expert advice on supplements, and programs like ColiCare. Our desire to serve your needs completely led us to open a pharmacy over ten years ago. But to be honest, very few customers took advantage of that pharmacy, and it has always been a marginal business for us. So after careful consideration, we've decided to shut our pharmacy down, leaving your medical therapy to your vet (who knows it best) and freeing up those resources to focus on our core mission – providing the very best supplements available, in the right amounts every day.

|The Dead Zone
The Pamlico Sound was already in bad shape before the heavy September
flood runoff. For years, pollutants had been accumulating in the waters around
the mouth of the river. Luczkovich, and his colleagues at ECU, have been
studying the "flushing rate" of the states estuaries for years.
(This term describes how long it takes for an average molecule of water to pass
through the system and out to sea.) In general, he says, the Pamlico Sound is a
low flushing rate system, on the order of 11 months.
"There is a zone that appears each summer in the Pamlico where there is typically very little freshwater input," Luczkovich says. "Researchers from UNC-Wilmington conducted a benthic survey in Pamlico Sound and found large areas that were devoid of benthic life." ("Benthic" means relating to or occurring at the bottom of a body of water.) The researchers were looking for worms, plants, and other life forms that form the foundation of the marine food chain. (Hackney et al. 1998)
"Instead, they found high levels of heavy metals and other contaminants
from runoff," Luczkovich continues. "So the Pamlico Sound was already
impacted by human pollution. You could consider parts of it a dead
zone even before the storm hit." (The term "dead zone"
refers to a region where there is too little, or no, dissolved oxygen to support
Although there were no major fish kills from the Floyd event, ecologists are particularly concerned at what might happen this summer when the waters warm up. It is possible that the size of the Pamlicos dead zone could expand dramatically, or that additional dead zones could occur.
"Will a larger than normal dead zone appear?" Luczkovich asks. "Thats a good question. We dont know, but there is the potential."
He adds that the larger than usual influx of nutrients--such as nitrogen and phosphorus--could also produce larger than normal blooms of phytoplankton this summer. Because the lifespan of an average phytoplankton is short (12 to 48 hours), they turn over rapidly. As they grow, phytoplankton produce oxygen at the surface. But when they die, they sink to the bottom and decompose, thereby consuming oxygen. Luczkovich notes that if there is a larger than usual bloom in the Pamlico Sound this summer, the waters could become stratified, with very oxygen-rich waters near the surface but much less oxygen toward the bottom. If that happens, he says, we could see large fish kills.

Similar Issues:
I have heard new users complain about Hudson that they were confused just
looking at the main screen because they didn't know what a blue ball meant. Red
is clearly failure, but blue is not absolutely clear. Every other tool which
displays the results of tests uses green to mean success. Hudson should do the same.
Issue Links
- is duplicated by
JENKINS-572 Passing tests should be green; not blue
- Closed
Blue is one of the main color palette that Hudson uses, so replacing that with
green would need other color adjustments (such as the banner, test report
charts, etc.) Color is a part of the branding, so I takes certain courage to
make this change.
I really wish we could get a real designer to work on the UI.
Personally, I've never heard this complaint from any of the users in the list or
in person. Is it a common complaint among your team?
Everyone in my Team had this problem. Blue is not a good colour for a
successfull build from a usability perspective.
And I don't think you have to change every colour in your Gui because of that.
Simply change the blue Icons to green ones. You already have green Icons in the
Gui ("Back to Dashboard"). Look into the colour set for the tango icon set and
you will find a nice green.
I think I've just heard it brought up once from my team. (Came up at the same
time as #370.) But not sure.
This thread http://www.nabble.com/status-bullet-color-tf4323528.html includes
some interesting points.
Another recurrence of this issue in the users list. This time, several people
who are fine with blue chimed in.
I guess for this issue to make progress, we really need an artist who could
create appropriate icons.
Simply post a request in the tango mailinglist. Your icons are tango icons, am I
Here's what it takes to fix this issue:
1. Prepare the ball icons in green. This involves in tweaking svg at
hudson/main/war/images. Start by copying blue.svg, and use tango color palette
2. running make.sh would regenerate all the necessary png/gif files. It might be
hard for other folks to run this script, so I'd be willing to do this.
3. Use new green orb instead of blue orb, and see how the screen looks. Notice
that Hudson uses the blue theme extensively elsewhere, such as in hyperlinks,
caption bar, and progress bar, and test results. Think hard if we need to
convert them to green, too, or if it's not necessary. Probably a mock up is
necessary to do a fair comparison.
4. if the other colors need to be modified, edit CSS in
hudson/war/resources/css/*.css and other image files in
I am -1000 on fixing this issue.
To make me +1 we need to have the theme plugable. I like blue, my team likes
blue, our VP likes blue. let it be a system setting to pick the theme.
If you are just doing a straight replace without making it plugable I think that
is a big mistake
It's hard to call a personal preference a 'defect' so I'm changing this to an
enhancement. Based on Stephen's comment, it seems this should be generalized
into a 'pluggable themes' enhancement, instead of discussing the specifics of
blue vs green.

Q. "Why do Japanese people say that they have blue traffic lights
when they are really green?"--Question submitted by John Sypal
A. According to the book, Japan From A to Z: Mysteries of Everyday
Life Explained by James and Michiko Vardaman, the first traffic
signals in Japan were blue instead of green, but the blue lights were
difficult to see from a long distance away so they were replaced with
green ones. Vardaman says that the custom of referring to traffic
lights is a holdover from those days.
This sounds like a good explanation, but the problem with it is that
you will hear Japanese people refer to other green things (like
cucumbers, spinach, and sometimes grass) as being blue as well. This
is because historically, Japanese people considered green to be a
shade of blue. For example, the Chinese character for blue,
pronounced ao is made up of two characters, iki (life) and i (well)
and refers to the colour of plants which grow around a well, a colour
between green and blue. When Chinese people see the character, they
say it means green, but Japanese people say it means blue. Japanese
books on colours tell us that there are four tertiary colours: red,
blue, white and black, and that all others are shades of those four
main ones. Ao, therefore, is a sort of ideal blue, halfway between
green and blue. The sky is said to be blue, but it is a different
shade of ao than a traffic light is. Tree leaves are said to be
green, but green is a shade of ao, like crimson is a shade of red.To
read an interesting debate on the nature of "blueness", visit
topicID=20.topic. In another interesting cultural difference relating
to colour, Japanese children always colour the sun red instead of

Microsoft plans on bringing more of the Xbox experience to rival smartphone operating systems, including Apple's iOS and Google's Android.
In December 2011, the company reconsidered their motives and released an Xbox Live and Kinectimals that extended the gaming experience beyond the living-room bound console, to Apple's iOS smartphones. These iPhone applications proved successful, so much so that Microsoft is now planning to share some Xbox love with Android too. A Microsoft spokesperson shared the news in a statement:
"While the Xbox Live experiences and games always work best on the Windows platform, we understand that some Xbox fans may be using other types of devices. To satisfy that need, we are working to extend a few of our Xbox experiences and titles to other platforms."
So far, Microsoft hasn't revealed when the Xbox Live app will be available on Android or iOS, but there's comfort in knowing the experience is coming and you don't need a Windows Phone to share it.

Tuesday update:
We got this email over the weekend about the new retail business and restaurant:
I just saw on your blog post about Sweet Tea & Biscuits Cafe and wanted to tell you that it is located in Joyful Creations Gift Market.
Joyful Creations Gift Market is a unique gift shop featuring a variety of curious vintage, new, and resurrected items, innovative accessories, and delightful gifts.
We plan to open on Tuesday, September 4. Hours are 10:00 til 6:00 Tuesday through Saturday. Sweet Tea & Biscuits will be serving lunch from 11:00 til 2:00 Tuesday through Saturday.

Joyful Creations Gift Market
2025 McCullough Blvd
Tupelo, MS 38801
Friday's post:
A new restaurant is scheduled to open Tuesday in the former Flowerdale Marketplace.
It's called Sweet Tea & Biscuits, according to health department records. It scored an "A" on its first inspection (previous coverage).
The restaurant's address is 2025 McCullough Blvd.
The building became vacant after Flowerdale Marketplace in June moved to a smaller building on Industrial Road. Owner Alice Rogers kept the retail side of the business but closed the cafe.
We went by the McCullough business today and saw people stocking the front area of the building. It looks like they are going to have some sort of retail area for accessories and decor. We'll see soon enough.

Sarajevo. A gunman with an automatic weapon opened fire at the United States embassy in the Bosnian capital Sarajevo on Friday and police rushed to the scene, a Reuters witness said. A Reuters photographer said police were trying to surround the gunman, who was armed with a Kalashnikov rifle. A source close to the embassy said two security guards had been wounded.

why do we have troops there?
Ask Billy Jeff, to protect muslims.
They shot up my Iltis(jeep) when I was there in 1994 , it was full of holes, It still ran and would whistle
I believe all of our embassies have Marine guards.
Looks like the Kalashnikov has been downgraded from "assault rifle."
America, making the world safe for Islamic Jihadists.
(note 4/5 length of the pants and beard)
The United States is diplomatic and military arm of Islamic terrorism.
Without United States' military support to Islamic terrorism, there would be no Islamist Bosnia today.
Nor Islamist Libya.
Chicken are coming home to roost.
......imagine that...who would have thought...
Wake up America, the Clintons lied and Christians died.
heez dead now...
"A gunman opened fire at the US embassy in Sarajevo Friday before being taken out by a sniper, Bosnian radio reported, identifying the attacker as a radical Islamist, AFP reported.
"A man, member of the Wahhabi (branch of Islam), aged around 40, shot at the US embassy with a Kalashnikov rifle," Bosnian national radio said."
That's a lot of info real fast.
Fox just reported that he got out of a car being driven by someone else, so they must be looking for others.
yes, other stories note others are being sought....
Looks like a M70 to me:
Note folding stock ("A" variants), and the 3 slots on the foregrip.
WeaselZippers has video of the jihadi *sshole getting shot.
The report in post#16 says he survived
Before Bosnian civil war started in 1992, Bosnian Muslim Patriotic League got in possession of 100,000 assault rifles from the Army and NG depots. Most were M70. I wonder if there are any AK-47 in Bosnia - there was no need for them when M70 was plentiful. Also, before civil war no one called M70 "AK" or "Kalasnikov". It is colloquial use by people who are not familiar with weapons, hence Bosnian media reports of "Kalasnikov rifle".
Yugoslav armament industry was copycat but capable of producing significantly improved originals - be it Mouser M98 Carbines (Zastava M48), Sig handguns (CZ-99), Dragunov sniper or AK-47. They improved even when under licence agreement (e.g. Zastava made Skorpion M84 submachine pistol)

Individual Indicted in Connection with Machine Gun Attack on U.S. Embassy in Bosnia-Herzegovina in 2011
U.S. Attorneys Office
April 24, 2012
WASHINGTONMevlid Jasarevic, 23, a citizen of Serbia, was indicted today by a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia on charges of attempted murder and other violations in connection with his alleged machine gun attack on the U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina on October 28, 2011.
The indictment was announced by Lisa Monaco, Assistant Attorney General for National Security; Ronald C. Machen, Jr., U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia; and James W. McJunkin, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBIs Washington Field Division.
The 10-count indictment charges Jasarevic with one count of attempt to murder U.S. officers or employees; one count of attempt to murder U.S. nationals within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States (the U.S. Embassy); one count of assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to do bodily harm within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States; one count of assaulting U.S. officers or employees with a deadly weapon; one count of destruction of property within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States; and five counts of use of a firearm during a crime of violence.
Yesterday, authorities in Bosnia-Herzegovina brought charges against Jasaveric and two others in connection with the alleged attack on the U.S. Embassy. Jasaveric is in the custody of Bosnia-Herzegovina authorities. The United States has closely cooperated with Bosnia-Herzegovina authorities in their investigation of the U.S. Embassy attack and strongly supports their decision to charge and prosecute those allegedly involved. The United States will continue to cooperate fully with authorities in Bosnia-Herzegovina to bring to justice those involved.
The case is being investigated by the FBI Washington Field Office. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Bowman of the U.S. Attorneys Office for the District of Columbia and Trial Attorney Joshua Larocca of the Counterterrorism Section of the Justice Departments National Security Division. The Office of International Affairs in the Justice Departments Criminal Division also provided assistance.
The attempted murder charges against Jasarevic, as well as the charges of assaulting U.S. officers and employees with a deadly weapon, and destruction of property each carry a maximum sentence of 20 years. Each charge of using a firearm during a crime of violence carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 30 years for use of a machine gun. The charge of assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to do bodily harm within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States carries a maximum sentence of 10 years.
The public is reminded that an indictment contains mere allegations. Defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.

Media Release
18 June 2008
A major retrospective exhibition on Australian artist Richard Larter, featuring approximately 90 works from public and private collections and brought together for the first time, opens at the National Gallery of Australia this Friday, 20 June 2008.
Featured in the exhibition are the works that Larter painted of the Canberra bushfires as well as other paintings inspired by journeys from Yass to Sydney. Canberra has been home to Larter for the past 8 years and prior to this, he lived in Yass for 18 years.
Richard Larter's vibrant, thought-provoking work spans five decades. Shown across three large gallery spaces, the exhibition conveys diverse themes, including the artist's fascination with popular culture, a strong opposition to censorship and war and a continuing interest in the human body and sexuality.
Although Larter is most often thought of as a provocative artist, this retrospective shows the breadth of his output over the years. It reveals his abilities as a painter of inventive, lyrical abstracts and landscapes of radiant luminosity.
The most consistent and passionate obsession in Richard Larter's art over the years has been Pat Larter (1936–1996), his late wife, who was also an artist and performer in her own right. In drawings, prints, paintings and film over the years, he fully engaged with the energy she imparted and shared. A selection of these works will be shown in a room devoted to his muse Pat.
The National Gallery of Australia is proud to host this first retrospective of Larter's figurative and abstract works in a major public institution. Director Ron Radford says: "Richard Larter's art seems to be that of an eternally young man, yet he turned 79 this year, and has painted exuberantly well and prolifically for over half a century. It is high time that this major Australian artist had a full retrospective in a major institution supported by a significant publication. His reputation rests firmly on his abilities as a painter."
The National Gallery of Australia has been collecting Larter's work since 1970 and has the largest public collection of his work. Since the 1970s his work has been collected and shown at major galleries across Australia including the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Art Gallery of South Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, Art Gallery of Western Australia, Newcastle Region Art Gallery and Ballarat Fine Art Gallery. A work acquired by the Queensland Art Gallery won the Trustees Prize as early as 1976.
Richard Larter's dedication to his art and relentless work ethic has resulted in an enormous body of work and the selection of works for a manageable retrospective display has been especially demanding. Exhibition curator Deborah Hart says, "It was important to convey the broad range of Larter's output over the years. His contribution to Australian art is apparent in his abilities to convey a feeling of the 'theatre of life' as well as in his non-figurative work relating to natural phenomena, music and physics. His art over more than fifty years reveals him to be an extraordinary colourist and technical innovator."

It's been a tough year for the city of Springfield – tornadoes, a tropical storm and the recent snowfall have destroyed property and depressed residents. On top of that, the city's homicide rate has surpassed last year's, with 19 murders so far. Now voters must turn their attention to the mayor's race, and decide who's best fit to lead the city as it recovers.
Springfield's mayoral race pits incumbent Domenic Sarno against City Council President Jose Tosado. Sarno is seeking a third term – he's been mayor for 4 years now. But if Tosado wins, he'll be the first Puerto Rican mayor in state history.
"At this point it's really Mayor Sarno's race to lose."
Tim Vercellotti is a professor of political science at Western New England University. He says the recent disasters have put Sarno in the spotlight, and it's difficult for anyone else to get the same exposure. But, he says, support for Tosado throughout the city can't be ignored.
"If you look at the census data for Springfield, about a third of the city households, Spanish is spoken at home. And so the Puerto Rican community is a sizeable community in this city and this is a test of its political strength."
But in the recent primary, Tosado received slightly more than 3 thousand votes while Sarno received more than 8 thousand. The question may be whether voters are ready to embrace change, which is what Tosado promotes in his campaign.
"There's a handful of people who really control the economy and the resources in Springfield. And these people, these very powerful people with direct access to City Hall, have an incentive to keep Springfield just as it is, in decline."
Tosado has called for the immediate resignation of the city school superintendent, who gave his one-year notice over the summer. He's proposed the creation of a Hampden County Gun Court, to expedite illegal gun cases and quickly get dangerous people off the streets. Tosado was born in Puerto Rico but grew up in the Latino North End, where his family owned a small restaurant. A social worker, he's spent 28 years working for the Mass. Department of Mental Health, most recently managing its Springfield office.
"We have unsafe streets, we have failing schools and we have a runaway economy. It's time for some risks to be taken, it's time for a real manager to come in for the city."
But Sarno prides himself on overseeing the city's improved finances, in the wake of a state takeover. Due to storm recovery efforts, Sarno canceled an interview this week, but here he is in a recent debate on WGBY television.
"Even though we rebuild during the devastating tornadoes and governing in the worst economic time since the Great Depression, I'm proud of my administration being able to produce 3 balanced budgets, being able to get bond increases to A bond status and being able to keep a healthy reserve of $34.9 million. The priority of financial health of the city will continue to be at the forefront here. We cannot go back to the old ways that put us near bankruptcy."
Sarno grew up in the city's Italian South End and served on the city council. His goals range from increasing police attendance at neighborhood meetings to quick-fixes for city potholes. After finances, he says his next priority is curbing youth violence.
"I continue to meet with the task force that I put together with local, state and federal officials, FBI, DEA, state police. We've continued our targeted war and crackdowns and gun sweeps with gangs, narcotics and other aspects. But I need people's help, the community and the residents."
Voters will have to decide whether those efforts have been enough. In the last mayoral race, in 2009, turnout was only 25%. But this time, the decision has more weight — the mayoral term will be expanded from two years to four starting with the results of this election.

Comments: Horrible bait! Everything is too translucent, the tails are too thin, and a bunch of them are all kinked up in the package and don't work. Total garbage IMO. Bring back the Green Pumpkin Powerbait twintail grub!
From: Will: Shreveport, LA
Comments: amazing. These are the only weights I will use from now on. The paint is indestructable, they don't fray your line at all (even with 10lb mono!), and they are nice and compact. 10/10. I dropped these from 10 feet onto asphalt and the paint barely scratched. Fishing heavy cover doesn't abuse your weight like that. Give these a try, you'll never go back.
From: Cullen: VA
Comments: Ya these are my favorite bullet weights. Their paint is so durable, it holds up better than my tru tungsten weight paint job. I love the design, it really slips through weeds well. Get em there great!
From: Matt: MN
Comments: very very good weights on both flippin and worm weights i will be switching all my tru-tungsten weights as soon as i can

Americans shouldn't have to camp out to witness legal history.
The line started forming last Thursday for fewer than 100 seats set aside for the general public at the Supreme Court, where two monumental gay-rights cases were argued this week.
Millions of Americans would have loved to watch legal history. But other than those hardy urban campers, invited guests and about 100 Supreme Court lawyers, the public was shut out.
OPPOSING VIEW: Television is entertainment
That's because the high court won't let go of its anachronistic ban on TV cameras. It's not clear how many justices oppose them, or why. Such decisions are made in private.
But you can get a good idea of where a majority stands from the justices' occasional public comments. For a bunch of top-notch legal minds, their arguments are pretty flimsy:
- Justice Clarence Thomas has worried about a loss of anonymity for his colleagues. If they wanted a lot of privacy, though, they shouldn't have taken high public office in the first place. This is hardly a camera-shy group. Thomas did CBS'60 Minutes in 2007. Justice Antonin Scalia spoke to CNN's Piers Morgan last July. Justice Sonia Sotomayor has been on a book tour this year, including a stop on Univision doing the salsa. All that's fine. But public officials shouldn't speak to the public only when it's in their self-interest.
- Several justices argue that TV might spoil their collegial courtroom dynamic and that some of the participants in oral arguments might play to the cameras. Guess what? Some already play to the crowd, even without a camera. And the justices aren't always so collegial. Dissents can be stinging. Yet they seem to get over it and move on.
- "We don't want to become entertainment," Scalia told CNBC in 2005. Fat chance of that. Much of the court's docket involves esoteric legal issues.
On the high-interest cases — such as gay marriage, abortion, affirmative action and the contested presidential election between George W. Bush and Al Gore — the justices' reasons for excluding cameras sound petulant and even paternalistic.
During their confirmation hearings, Sotomayor and Elana Kagan, the court's two newest members, favored opening the court to cameras. Kagan said it would be "a great thing for the institution and ... a great thing for the American people." She was right. But it took just a few years behind the court's isolating marble walls for both to flip-flop. Sotomayor recently observed that most viewers wouldn't understand the process, that justices are often playing devil's advocates. That sounds imperious. And even if it's true, it's all the more reason to let people learn by watching.
Courts in about 30 states, as well as the highest courts in Canada and in the United Kingdom, bare themselves to cameras without obvious scars. In the early 1990s, two federal appellate circuits, the level just below the Supreme Court, tried cameras and found the experience "favorable." Both allow cameras today.
The Supreme Court has been edging in the right direction. In 2000, for the first time, it released same-day audio recordings in Bush v. Gore. It has done the same in a score of cases since then, including this week's arguments on same-sex marriage.
Now it's time to go all the way from audio to visual, and let every American witness what has been limited to a privileged few.

Zabaglione is similar to custard but is made with only egg yolks, sugar, and ?avoring; no milk or cream is used. The yolks are whisked over a double boiler and incorporate a lot of air, becoming creamy, rich, and ?uffy. The traditional ?avoring for zabaglione is Marsala wine. When possible, I like to use a spirit made from the same fruit I will serve it with instead, to intensify the experience. This dish is spectacular when Italian plums are in season. Italian plums are a small and oval shaped, and are ? rm enough to stand up to a little cooking. If you can
- 12 Italian plums, halved and pitted -
- 6 tablespoons sugar -
- 4 large egg yolks -
- 1⁄4 cup plum brandy (Slivovitz) or grappa mixed with 1⁄4 cup water, or 1⁄2 cup Marsala wine -
- Kosher salt -
1. Heat the oven the to 400°F. Place the plums on a rimmed cookie sheet (lined with parchment paper for easier cleanup) and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Roast until the plums are browning and tender but not falling apart, about 15 minutes.
2. Bring about 2 inches of water to a bare simmer in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to maintain a bare simmer. Combine the egg yolks, the remaining 4 tablespoons sugar, the plum brandy mixture, and a pinch of salt in a round-bottomed metal mixing bowl; whisk thoroughly.
3. Set the bowl over the simmering water—the base of the bowl should not touch the water—and whisk continuously. The egg yolks will begin to froth, lighten, and grow greatly in volume. If you sense that the yolks are at risk of scrambling, quickly remove the bowl from the heat and whisk to cool slightly, then continue. When soft peaks form, after 5 to 10 minutes, the zabaglione is done. Transfer to a clean bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
4. To serve, place 6 plum halves in the bottom of each glass. Give the zabaglione a quick whisk and spoon it on top of the plums. Serve immediately.
This recipe appears in Michael Natkin's Herbivoracious, A Flavor Revolution with 150 Vibrant and Original Vegetarian Recipes.

*Your pronation type is determined by the natural motion your feet apply throughout your running gait. When you pronate your foot rolls from either the outer edge, inner edge or not at all. If your foot rolls to the outer edge when you run, you are an underpronator, if it rolls to the inner edge you are a overpronator and if your foot doesn't roll at all you are a neutral or stable runner.
