Nihao! One of the largest changes PASS is going through is the the expansion outside the US and Canada. We've had international chapters and events in Europe since the early 2000's. But nothing on the scale we're seeing now. Since January 1st there have been 18 SQL Saturday events outside North America and 19 events in North America. We hope to have three international SQLRally events outside the US in FY13 (budget willing). I don't know the exact percentage of chapters outside the US but it's got be 50% or higher.
We recently started an effort to remake the Board to better reflect the growing global face of PASS. This involves assigning some Board seats to geographic regions. You can ask questions about this in our feedback forum, participate in a Twitter chat or ask questions directly of Board members. You can email me at if you'd like to ask a question directly. We're doing this very slowly and deliberately in hopes that a long communication cycle gives us a chance to address all the issues that our members will raise.
After the Summit we passed a budget exception allocating an extra $20,000 for Board members to travel to local events. I think it's important for Board members to visit new areas and talk to more of our members. I sent out an email asking where people had attended events outside their home city. Here's the list I got back: Albuquerque, Amsterdam, Boston, Brisbane, Chicago, Colorado Springs, Columbus, Dallas, Houston, Jacksonville, Las Vegas, London, Louisville, Minneapolis, New York City, Orange County, Orlando, Pensacola, Perth, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Redmond, Seattle, Silicon Valley, Sydney, Tampa Bay, Vancouver, Washington DC and Wellington. (Disclaimer: Some of this travel was paid for by employers or Board members themselves. Some of this travel may have been completed before the Summit. That's still one heck of a list!)
The last SQL Saturday event this fiscal year is SQL Saturday Shanghai. And that's one I'm attending. This is our first event in China and is being put on in cooperation with the local Microsoft office. Hopefully this event will be the start of a growing community in China that includes chapters, SQL Saturdays and maybe a SQLRally or two in the future. I'm excited to speak with people that are just starting down this path and watching this community grow.
I encourage you to visit the PASS Global Growth site and read through the material there. This is the biggest change we've made to our governance since I've been on the Board. You need to understand how it affects you and how it affects the organization.
And wish me luck on the 15 hour flight to Shanghai on Friday afternoon. Rob Farley flies from Australia to the US for PASS events multiple times per year and I don't know how he does it so often. I think one of these is going to wipe me out. (And Nihao (knee-how) is Chinese for Hello.)

The next Kansas City SQL Saturday is coming up on August 4th. We'll have the usual SQL Saturday goodness: lots of technical sessions, great networking events and a fantastic speaker dinner. And we'll have the Third Annual Kansas City SQL Saturday BBQ Crawl.
On Friday afternoon we'll visit a few BBQ places in town. We tend to order big sampler plates and just share everything around. It's a great way to try a variety of styles. This year we'll be hitting an all new selection of BBQ joints.
You don't need to be a speaker to attend. However the call for speakers is open until June 28th (hint, hint). Locals and out-of-towners are all welcome.
If you're interested in attending send me an email and I'll get you added to the list.
We finish in plenty of time to get you to the speaker dinner – as if you could eat any more.

You may have noticed that cleaning a woman's blouse is often more expensive than cleaning a man's dress shirt at many dry cleaners
But please, before I get calls about this, at Champion Cleaners Birmingham locations in Vestavia Hills, Hoover on Highway 280 at Greystone and in Calera, Alabama this is not and has never been true. We charge the same prices for men's and women's clothing in every category.
Dry Cleaning in the Past
Despite the fact that we are all currently comfortable with women in the work place, the reality is that this was not always the case. It was only within recent years that the majority of women began pursuing careers, instead of pursuing the traditional female role of homemaker and child-rearer. The dry cleaning business began as a predominantly male industry, as men were the only ones who needed to maintain their clothing for the workplace.
Because dry cleaning developed as a business catering to men, much of the mechanical items used by dry cleaners are designed for men's clothing. Machines were crafted with men's suits and shirt sizes in mind, with little thought given to women's clothing. Shirt presses and shirt bucks are still made with these sizes in mind.
Same Day Dry Cleaning Service
Many dry cleaners offer their customers a fast turnaround with their clothing. It is not uncommon to find advertising for one day, or even same-day dry cleaning services. This means that efficiency is a huge factor in how well a dry cleaning business will do.
Since the standard equipment used by dry cleaners was made with men's shirts in mind, most women's shirts require deviating from the traditional cleaning and pressing techniques. It can even take three times as long to process a woman's blouse than it does for a man's dress shirt. Because these garments require more time, many dry cleaners ask for a larger fee. This is not meant to be a discriminatory practice, although it is perceived that way by some. The extra expense is due to the extra time taken.
At Champion Cleaners Birmingham Locations
This is true at Champion Cleaners in Birmingham…our primary shirt pressing equipment is designed for men's sizes. But we don't charge any more for a women's laundered cotton shirt or blouse. And they are hand-pressed...not for speed but for quality pressing.
Same Day Dry Cleaning Service
At Champion Cleaners, we do our dry cleaning and laundry on site at each location. This means that Same Day Dry Cleaning Service is our standard. Most garments received weekdays by 10:00 am are ready for pickup by 5:00 pm the same day. And if you need it sooner, just ask!

Sometimes two design elements work together so seamlessly, you just don't need anything else. Take the latest Dominic Jones Jewelry lookbook, for example. Take one part dramatic metallic jewelry that celeb clients flip out over (Rihanna, Alexa Chung, and Florence Welch to name a few—the line won the Elle Style Awards' Jewelry Designer Of The Year Award), and mix with one part artistically lit studded, spiked, and destroyed jeans… and you get a recipe for sex appeal. Check out the fourth installment of this hot accessories designer's line below.

Site Map
July 2007 - Two Texas-based rural electric cooperatives are offering low-priced green power products. Pedernales Electric Cooperative, which serves more than 210,000 customers in the middle of Texas, offers a mix of wind energy and hydroelectric power for a premium of 0.5¢/kWh above the standard electricity rate. Under the program, participating customers must choose to receive all of their electricity from renewable energy. The green pricing premium has been lowered twice since the product was first offered in early 2006 at a 2.0¢/kWh rate premium.
Bandera Electric Cooperative offers its 22,000 customers a fixed-rate green power product, which is also a blend of wind energy and hydroelectric power. The rate charged for the Choose-to-Renew product is fixed at 7.908¢/kWh, which reflects a fixed charge of 6.171¢/kWh for the renewable power plus the utility's 1.737¢/kWh distribution charge. However, green power customers are not subject to the utility's wholesale power purchase charge, which is adjusted monthly to reflect market price fluctuations. As of April 2007, green power customers were paying 0.114¢/kWh less for their electricity than base rate customers. Customers can purchase the green power in 100-kWh blocks or for 100% of their monthly electricity needs. The program sold out just months after its launch in 2005 and the utility maintains a waiting list of prospective green power customers.
Both Pedernales and Bandera receive their wholesale power from Lower Colorado River Authority, which operates 281.5 MW of hydropower facilities, and purchases 116 MW of wind energy from three West Texas wind projects.

|Kirt Yarbrough, Sr.
By Paul J. Gately
BELTON - A former Killeen police officer accused of having sex with a 16-year-old girl was sentenced to five years in prison Monday evening after the jury found him guilty of sexual assault.
The jury came back with their decision after three hours of deliberation.
The punishment phase in the trial of Kirt Yarbrough, Sr., a 16-year-veteran of the Killeen department, began around 1 p.m. in 426th State District Court in Belton, prosecutor Shelly Strimple said.
Jury deliberation for sentencing began Monday morning after a weeklong trial that concluded with final arguments last Friday.
Yarbrough was arrested in January and charged with sexual assault in connection with what authorities described as an inappropriate relationship with a 16-year-old member of the Killeen Police Department's Explorer Scout Program.
Yarbrough was fired through an indefinite suspension after an internal investigation that found that he violated several department policies including having an improper relationship with the participant in the Explorer program and untruthfulness, police said Monday.
The firing came less than two weeks after the Bell County Grand Jury indicted Yarbrough for sexual assault.
Yarbrough, also is facing an aggravated sexual assault charge in Coryell County stemming from an incident involving the same girl in Copperas Cove.
The Boy Scouts of American created the Explorer program in 1949, consolidating several programs designed for senior scouts.
By the mid-60s, the focus of the program was more toward careers.
Exploring was replaced by Venturing in 1998.

Select the Right Christmas Lights
With all the varieties of lights available, choosing the perfect ones for your decorating project can be a challenge. Here is a guide to the difference between the styles and the most effective ways to use them.
Mini lights were introduced in the 1970's as a solution to the excessive power consumed by C7 and C9 lights. Their lower wattage, brilliant sparkle and diversity make them an ever popular choice.
The quality of Christmas tree mini lights will dictate the life of the bulbs; the less expensive the string, the shorter the life. Inexpensive string lights only last about 300 hours, plan on replacing them every year. The better quality mini lights can last up 2,000 hours but will cost you more.
Most Christmas tree mini lights come in strands of 50 or 100 bulbs but other choices are available. Some string lights are designed to stay lit even if a bulb burns out (this is called "wired in parallel"). Be sure and replace the burned bulb promptly as the voltage to the remaining bulbs will increase and reduce the life of the string lights.
The important thing to remember with incandescent Christmas tree lights is to never connect more than three strings together.
Mini lights are suitable for both indoor and outdoor decorating. They are mostly used in indoor trees, outdoor shrubs, around tree trunks, as window borders and as accents to other decorations. Basically anytime a large amount of small points of light are needed for the desired affect.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEEN C7 and C9 LIGHTS
C7 and C9 bulbs are generally considered traditional outdoor Christmas lights. Their large size makes them easily visible and bright.
The difference between C7 and C9 bulbs is mainly the size of the bulb and the wattage. They are available in either 2,000 hour life (120V) or 3,000 hour life (130V). C7 light bulbs are about 2 inches while C9 light bulbs are about 3 inches. Wattages vary anywhere from 3.5 watts up to 10 watts depending on the bulb size.
C7 and C9 lights use screw type sockets so bulb replacement is easy.
Because these lights are large, they make an excellent choice for decorating large outdoor trees and shrubs, building perimeters, fences or anywhere that a "classic" holiday look is desired.
Once again, you can only connect up to three strings together at once.
Rope lights are the "new kid on the block" in holiday light choices. Essentially rope lights are just mini lights encased in a PVC jacket. There are a multitude of colors available and a variety of lengths making them an easy and affordable choice. Retail stores generally sell them in lengths of 3, 6 and 8 feet. Rope lights can also be purchased in spools of 50 and 150 feet for larger projects. Rope lights sold in spools can be field cut at 3 or 6 foot intervals for custom looks and designs.
Rope lights are an excellent choice for creating figures, designs and as accents for walkways, handrails and borders. Their flexibility makes them perfect for creating shapes like snowmen, reindeer, wreaths and the like. They are limited only by your imagination.
One thing to note with rope lights is that if one bulb burns out, then a section anywhere from 3 to 6 feet will also burn out. If you have a long continuous run you can splice in a new length. If you've purchased short lengths then the entire rope light will have to be replaced.
The quality of the rope light will determine its dependability, so as you evaluate your choices bear in mind that the less expensive rope lights may have to be replaced much sooner than their more expensive counterparts.
Decorating with lights is the most effective way to create a festive atmosphere any time of the year. We're all accustomed to seeing Christmas lights in the winter and Halloween lights in fall, but string lights can be used for any special occasion. Select the right string lights for your project and you'll be pleased with the brilliance and sparkle they give to any holiday or event.
Select Quality Outdoor christmas lights
Quality outdoor Christmas lights make any home look picture perfect. There is something magical about a home festively decorated and lit. It may surprise you to know that there are many different types of Christmas lights available to choose between. This article can help you sort through all the sales jargon and select the best outdoor Christmas lights for your home.
1.Become an energy saver and choose some LED Christmas lights. These lights can be lit for up to 200,000 hours. In fact, you may never have to change the bulb as long as you hang them for decoration. LED lights also safe money in energy costs. In fact, they cost about 10% of the cost to run traditional Christmas lights.
2.Save a bit of money right off the bat, but pay a bit later in the energy costs by getting the traditional C7 or C9 Christmas lights. If you don't have the extra cash to spend right away on LED, traditional lights are the way to go. Remember, though, you will pay extra on your energy bill.
3.Purchase lights with straight line construction. This means that if one light bulb burns out, the others in the strand will remain lit. Christmas lights that stay dark when one light is burned out are extremely frustrating.
4.Add some class to your home with icicle lights. Icicle lights are perfect for the neighborhood with strict rules about Christmas lights.
5.Consider purchasing tangle resistant wire. Even if you are the neatest, most organized person, Christmas lights have a tendency to tangle. By choosing tangle resistant wire, you will save yourself a lot of time and hassle the next year you dig out your decorations.

The Emery County pool is plunging along day by day. Emery County Commissioner Drew Sitterud gave an update on the project at commission meeting. He said they are laying brick walls. The pool doors are in Italy and they won't ship them until they are paid for. Commissioner Sitterud said the company needs to insure the doors so if any damage is done in the shipping then new doors will be provided or repaired. When this insurance certificate is in place the shipping will be done. County Treasurer Steven Barton said they need at least a day to get the money into the checking account for this transaction. These doors are sliding doors which can open between the indoor and outdoor pool to allow more air flow into the indoor pool area.
Commissioner Sitterud reported the women's shower area is going up. There have been some problems with the scaffolding blowing down in the wind. "It is moving forward, it's been slow due to the weather," said Commissioner Sitterud. The contractors say they are looking at a July 31 completion date. Sitterud thanked Morris Sorensen for the work the road department has done on ground preparation.
The pool committee has worked on the color scheme for the pool; they will now need to choose a sign for the outside of the building.
Colors include: gray, white, black lockers and the brick has a speck of gold in it. The pool will be used for exercise and the lazy river channel can be used for walking. There will be a jetted hot tub; water sprayers will spray back into the pool so water can be recycled. It will be a competition pool used for swimming meets for the high school. P.E. classes can also use the pool. There is a diving board. The pool is also equipped for use by handicapped people and those in wheel chairs. The indoor pool is 25 yards in length and a depth of 12 feet to 3.5 feet on the shallow end.
Mostly the outdoor pool will be for the smaller children as the depth there begins at zero to four feet. Surrounding the outdoor pool will be loungers, grass, tables and an outdoor grill where picnics can be held. There will be a party room that is enclosed in glass. This room can be rented for parties. There will be an area that concessions can be sold during the swim meets and at other times.
The Emery County School District donated eight acres to the pool project; they are also paying for the paving of the parking lot, scoreboard and lanes for the meets. The high school hopes to be ready for a swim team for the 2008 season. The swim season runs the same time as basketball season. The outdoor pool in the winter will be allowed to freeze.
The indoor pool water and the deck will remain even, this is good for a competition pool with no back wash; the extra water is held in a surge tank. As people exit the pool, water will surge back in to keep the pool at an even level. As people enter the pool and water is displaced it will enter the surge tank for storage.
Sitterud said the Emery County pool will be at the top when dealing with sanitary conditions. The chemicals will prevent bacteria from forming in the pool. The pool noise is dealt with by noise panels which double as an insulation wall.
At commission meeting they approved the issuance and sale of $1 million of taxable lease revenue bonds of the Municipal Building Authority in connection with the financing of a portion of the community swimming pool facilities. The county can't receive a grant without it affecting the PILT monies that come into the county. The MBA has the authority to accept grants; the MBA can't take a bond for a project on which they don't have any ownership. If the MBA takes ownership of $1 million of the loan then they are 1/5th owners of the project and therefore able to take the grant to finish the project. Commissioner Sitterud said it is a roundabout way of staying in line with all federal requirements.

Skip to comments.Obama bows down to Saudi King
Posted on 04/02/2009 8:19:47 AM PDT by rdb3
April 02, 2009
|I am quite certain that this is not the protocol, and is most unbecoming a President of the United States.
Amazing << Hear this. Feel this, and tell me that this isn't music.
Oh, dear...
Not Presidential. Not cool. Ugggh.
It is completely, 100% WRONG!
Aw, cut him some slack. He's just winking at Bawney Fwank.
What an idiot. Heads of state are not supposed to bow to each other, nor are their wives.
did he bow to the queen?
Looks like everyone's standing around laughing. Is that Sarkozy on the right shoulder of the king?
He BOWED to the SAUDIS???? He BOWED????
*shaking my head* I do NOT think this is protocol. No head of state should BOW before ANOTHER!
Good Lord it creeped me out when Dubya held his hand but this is submission.......wait doesn't islam mean submission?
At least he is acknowledging one of the people who made his election possible. He owes a lot to these guys.
The king will get a lot of good use out of that photo.
Well.....I suppose he paid for his election....soooo...
suggest we send knee pads to the WH
It resembles him, that's for sure...
Barak needs a teleprompter "imbedded"....
what a doofus azzclown and his adminstrative azzclowns (all 500 that took this trip) get the credit too!
They all must have been site seeing and missed the opportunity to tell BO how to act.
He's not bowing, he's just kissing his ring. /sarc
The Founders of this great nation weep.
let me get this right
the Queen doesn't get a bow nor a curtsy from his racist wife
he then meets the kin of Saudi and he's bending over
They then come ion and grab her hand with both of their hands like she is a rag doll, michelle obama nearly pushes the prince out of the way.
Am I missing something here or what?
anything to do with one being a muslim and another not
His presents , his lack of class and why the hell she is there is beyond me especially as we're paying for the 500 and her
And the Moonbats thought Bush holding hands was bad, that was dignified compared to this. Looks like another snub of UK and another wake up call to the bots.
They can use the ones from the Clinton administration.
That's the thing. Holding hands is a show of alliance... Bowing is TOTAL SUBMISSION!!!
He didn't bow to the Queen, but he bows the King of a country that sent us all those 9.11 fellows? Since when do American heads of state bow to foreign rulers?
Where's Paul Bunyan with steel-toe boots when you need him?
Actually, it looks to me like he is kissing his ring.
And the Moonbats thought Bush holding hands was bad, that was dignified compared to this. Looks like another snub of UK and another wake up call to the bots.
Shocking, but not surprising.
Apparently no one in the Protocols Office is talking to the President, or he's (more likely) just ignoring them.
no he did not nor did his wife curtsy.
they grabbed her hand with both of their hands and showed no class what so ever and now it looks like he is kissing the hand of the saudi muslim king
pelosi must be advising him - just like when she wore that nice little headscarf...
Bowing down might be a bit much, but its normal to be at least a bit deferential to your patròn.
It looks like the Saudi King is saying: "What the hell are you doing, Odinga?"
This man is evil to my way of life. HE BOWED!!!!!!!!!!! Is he giving the country away?????????????????????????
Bush was assisting the King on their "path" and watching that he didn't fall...Very different!!
Not nicknamed Zero for nothing.
now this will certainly make him the laughingstock of the G20 if not all of the Western Hemisphere.
This, the gift snafus, Michelle putting her hand on the Queen...
Obama needs to fire his protocol people.
Well, the Saudi king bought the election for him, so why not?
Welcome the Jeb Clampet in the White House.
why is his wife there anyway?
shouldn't she be with her kids(this was big for liberals on sarah) or doing her first lady role for a charity?
Did he give him an ipod too? LOL This is getting way too comical.. unbeweevable
this doofus is an embarrassment
Yoo Hoo, GOP Campaign 2010- we have found a billboard
maybe he tripped, not a bow.
Between this and the gifts, his Chief of Protocol must be a 19-year-old female rapper. ;)
Make this go viral. Today. Send it to everyone you know.
Even Bush didn't do this.
Remember most of the hijackers and murderers on 9/11 were Saudis.

FF is the franchise that taught me that story and music are important parts of a game. My first FF was IV, and it was an incredible experience from start to end. From that point forward, almost 21 years later, it has been a franchise that has been at the core of my gaming experience.
Not only did I enjoy the characters and story, the music captivated me in a way no other game music had before. Years later it is these very things that captured the imagination of my wife and son, and we – as a family – enjoy these works of art. We enjoy watching each other play, and enjoy sharing the experience. We're currently in love with number XIV and I enjoy the little nods to the franchise's history.
Some say the series are not what they used to be, or may prefer the old days of FF. But we do this because it impacted us in a few other franchises have. We fondly remember memories of worlds, characters and stories that enraptured us.
This is Final Fantasy for me, and my family.
The Final Fantasy series was in many ways what shaped my expectations and ideas of what a fantasy RPG should be. Final Fantasy 2 and 3 (5 and 6 elsewhere) were the first games that I really devoted a lot of time to playing and beating. I still remember the feeling of accomplishment that I got taking Kefka down.
Playing Final Fantasy A Realm Reborn has brought a lot of those feelings back up. The joy of the "level up music", the familiar and effective class and magic system, the cut scenes and "feel" of the world. I won't lie, I was giddy the first time I rode a Chocobo and heard that song!
The Final Fantasy series is like a nice, warm blanket on a cold winter night. It is a series that holds a lot of old memories and nostalgia, but continues to evolve and grow to allow for new memories to be created.
"There are at least two kinds of games.
One could be called finite, the other infinite.
A finite game is played for the purpose of winning,
an infinite game for the purpose of continuing play."
Finite and Infinite Games, James Carse
Final Fantasy can move you to tears or leave you cold.
It can be a passion, a burden, a pleasure, a vice.
You may love it, you may hate it.
It had its ups an it had its downs.
Perhaps it is what the fox says.
It's simply more than words can describe.
The world without Final Fantasy would have lost its fantasy.
Final Fantasy, to be honest, has been much more the a game. It has been an escape. Life always has ups and unfortunately, it has many downs; during these times the FF series has allowed me to separate myself from probing issues, and just relax and breath. It would not be a stretch to say that the FF series has actually improved my life, as after playing the game, I am relaxed and can focus on any issues at hand.
Going back to the years I was in school, while always providing time away from studies, it became a common ground topic and made it easier to meet new people. Talking to someone you don't know with no known similarities is incredibly difficult for many, but having FF as a starting point really opens the gates to more topics.
In the end, Final Fantasy is by far one of the most influential gaming series in my life, and forever will be. The soundtrack, visuals, and story are just three of the aspects that make it such an impact on lives.
To everyone who has worked on FF and those who will in the future, thank you.
Final Fantasy means a lot to me; like many, it was my first RPG, but it was also how I learned English. When I was a little kid in Cuba (I was 6), I would play Final Fantasy 1 on my NES (Hidden since those were illegal to own) in my room with a Spanish-English dictionary next to me in order to understand the story and what to do next.
In 1994 we escaped Cuba to go to Venezuela; Final Fantasy 6 came out that year but as new immigrants we were very poor. I remember my dad worked absurdly long hours and my mom took sewing curtains for rich people on the side even though she was a Doctor in order for them to surprise me that Christmas with an SNES and a copy of Final Fantasy 6; I'm getting choked up thinking about it.
Final Fantasy has always been a huge part of my life, it was at many times my only escape from a dictator's oppression, extreme poverty, and frequent school bullying. My life is much better now, but Final Fantasy will forever have a very special place in it.
my first Final Fantasy was FFXI. i love it. final fantasy is a great place to get out of the real world. you can be anyone you want. a healer to revive the dead and heal the wound, a tank to protect the weak and protect your friends. a mage to wreck havoc on the monsters. Be a thief and steal from everyone's . worlds are beautiful, you can sit on a beach or get lost in a jungle. Go bug hunting in a nest. I will always be a final fantasy fan.
The Final Fantasy series means never giving up, especially on your passion. I watched a documentary not too long ago about how the first FF was made. Although it was shot down several times for being an RPG, the creator never gave up on it. This shows through in a lot of the stories about sticking through till the bitter end. There will always be tough times and obstacles, but you just need to keep moving forward. and not give up.
Just as many people were starting to heavily doubt the series, once again they pushed through the scrutiny and didn't give up. Now the FF series is back to being one of the top RPGs on the market. For many of us, as children we got this message through the story of each game in a unique form. As an adult the meaning is even more clear to me personally, as the whole series and its creation has meaning.
All die, so die well.
From Final Fantasy one to Kingdom heart and Final Fantasy XIII is just one huge epic battle in different time to save their universe from evil and destruction. Final Fantasy series capture the heart of the player and core of the game. It's not the graphic that makes the series so great. It's the uniqueness of each character, composition of the music, and epic story line that make players like me feel like they are a part of that universe. Final Fantasy series is an unforgettable legacy and there will be no "Final" ending to their story.
VII was escapism at first. Things were difficult at home and what started as interesting gameplay mechanics turned into a magnificent story of heroes. Wasn't Cloud's narrative something we all shared: believing we were something greater than we really are? Going so far as to lie to ourselves, forgoing our own talents to make ourselves into what we think is right. We get lost and make mistakes. Cloud's story is our story. We are human.
The courage it took Sakaguchi to continue his work after the loss of his mother and to have that event permeate into the story of VII is a most beautiful tribute to her. Aerith's death resonated in so many; it was as if we could feel what he was feeling at the time. His loss was our loss.
In the end, I can identify with Mr. Sakaguchi, and the irony of what came after his last stich effort: his "final fantasy" becoming anything but in 1987. His stories of underdogs would continue after the first incarnation and keep the affection of many generations after. To say I love the series would be an understatement. There are no words to describe my feelings for Final Fantasy.
The Final Fantasy universe to me means an unexplored territory where there will be rewards for one's adventures and at the same time never punishment for something out of a user's control.
I have yet to play anything Final Fantasy except the beta (I loved it), but I really want to "become part of the team" after seeing FF and hearing FF. I would love to support a product that supports its users. In one word Final Fantasy to me is Opportunity
Final Fantasy to me is a world I can go to escape the real world. I can leave my stress behind and surround myself with a world that has brought me happiness and joy all these years growing up into an adult and still enjoying. This is most true with the new FFXIV a realm reborn. I love being able to dive into this game and just look around for hours at the beautiful landscape and creatures which you can not do in real life. Final Fantasy will always be the perfect fantasy!
What Final Fantasy means to me?
As an ispiring writer, it is humbling that any FF game in the series can tell in hours, stories of a magnitude I doubt I will ever write in a lifetime
I play MMOs for the Forum PVP
Final Fantasy taught me what immersion actually is.
It showed me that the digital medium of story telling didn't have to take place in front of me while I play the part of only a witness.
It surrounded me with choices, lore, sounds and filled me with passion, indecision and regret as I did not just watch but as I became the character.
Final Fantasy more than anything else taught me what it meant to be the protagonist and feel the weight of a tough decision upon my shoulders and that choice means consequence.
Final Fantasy means excellence.

When it was purchased from the Nature Conservancy in 1986 by Brigham Young University and managed under the auspices of the Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum in Provo, Utah, the Lytle Ranch Preserve was established as a nature preserve for education and research purposes, according to a BYU Lytle Preserve brochure.
The preserve, which functions as a field station for college professor and student research projects, is open year-round, and draws higher education students from BYU, BYU-Idaho and a host of other colleges from the United States and abroad.
It is located in southwestern Utah, 36 miles west of St. George where the Basin and Range Province overlaps with the Mohave Desert and the Colorado River Plateau, according to the BYU brochure, which adds, "The Preserve is at a rare place in North America where a variety of geological formations and ecosystems overlap."
The 462-acre Preserve sits astride the Beaver Dam drainage at about the 2,800-foot-elevation. It is one of the lowest points in Utah and because of its year-round water source, the Lytle Preserve is home to plant and bird species found nowhere else in the State of Utah, according to Preserve Managers Heriberto and Debra Madrigal.
The Madrigals, who have worked on-site at the Preserve for over 20 years, say it is one of the best places they have ever worked.
"The weather is beautiful and it's quiet and nice," says Heriberto Madrigal, "and you get to meet people from all over the world, plus the neighbors are nice people too."
On Saturday, Jan. 25, when I visited the Preserve, the Madrigals were hosting a group of bird watchers led by Larry Tripp as part of the St. George Bird Festival.
"There were 19 people that came out," Tripp said. "We found about 42 to 43 species, so it was a productive day."
One of their rarest finds was a black-tailed knat catcher.
Tripp said the number one reason the birds come to the Lytle Preserve is because of the riparian habitat in the Mohave Desert.
Fellow birder Richard Wilkinson said that in addition to the black-tailed knat catcher, their birding group saw spotted towhees, dark-eyed juncos, white-crowned sparrows, northern flickers, ruby-crowned kinglets, a ladder-back woodpecker, two wild turkeys and a Phainapepla.
Madrigal said the Phainapepla bird comes only to this part of the State of Utah because of the mistletoe growing on an acacia cat claw tree which produces a kind of fruit berry that the bird likes.
In addition to these local bird watchers, the Madrigals said visitors to the Preserve come from all over the world, including Africa, Iran, South America, Vietnam and Germany.
Like others who have visited this unique oasis along the edge of the Beaver Dam Slope, the Madrigals were drawn to it by its plant and animal diversity and its solitude.
Heriberto Madrigal was born and raised in Mexico, but began looking for a better life in America and moved to Payson, Utah where he met and courted his wife, Debra. At the time, Debra was working as a social worker and Heriberto was an assistant manager for a fruit farm. They were hired by BYU to manage the Lytle Ranch Preserve in May 1993.
That same year, Heriberto said a flood that came down the Beaver Dam Wash, took out some of the existing 10-inch irrigation pipe located on the Preserve's sprinkler irrigated crops.
In 1995, another larger flood came through the Preserve property and took out irrigation pipe, along with two reservoirs. It also flooded an adobe home that had once been the home of Talmage and Eleanor Lytle, who had once ranched on the property prior to its acquisition by BYU.
Of the 1995 flood, Debra Madrigal remembers it rained all day long and flood waters extended from the fields across the wash west to the cliffs towering above.
"It was really scary," she said, noting that she and Heriberto were living in the Talmage Lytle home at the time. "There was mud-covered water all over the floor. It was like walking on a waterbed. Our dog was sitting on a chair with water all around him."
The flood waters forced the couple to move to a nearby bunkhouse area that they called "The Pit," because it had once been the site of a pit full of snakes.
Then in 2010, another large flood in the Beaver Dam Wash washed out one of the bottom-land fields at the Preserve, before again damaging the Lytle adobe home. This time, damage to the home was so extensive that it had to be demolished.
Because of the periodic flooding in the Beaver Dam Wash, BYU officials in 1997-98, built a two-bedroom manager's residence for the Madrigals on higher ground to the east of where the Lytle adobe home had once stood. The new manager's residence is solar powered, but also has a back-up gas generator.
A Southwest style men's and women's student dormitory, also solar powered, features 6 bunk beds for the men, and 6 bunk beds for the women. The dormitory was constructed on an even higher knoll directly north and behind the manager's residence. The men's and women's rooms in the dormitory each have their own restroom and shower facilities.
Construction on the dormitory began in November 2012 and was completed in March 2013, Heriberto Madrigal said. The dormitory also includes a solar-powered classroom, kitchen, and laundry room.
Because woodpeckers have consistently tried to build nests in the eves of the outside of the dormitory building, the Madrigals have placed life-size replicas of hawks outside to discourage the woodpeckers from further attempts at nest building.
North of the dormitory in the fields below are a variety of fruit and nut trees, including: apricot, plum, peach, pistachio, pear, pecan, walnut, persimmon and pomegranate. In addition, the Preserve raises alfalfa, milo and barley grain to support the wildlife and to retain its water rights, Heriberto Madrigal said.
The Preserve manager also fences as much of the property as possible to keep range cattle out to preserve the integrity of the property.
Across the road south of the manager's residence are three trailers, each with covered sheds, that have been designated for use by Ian Baldwin, a professor of chemical ecology with the Max-Planck Institute in Germany. Baldwin brings students from the Institute to the Preserve from March to either June or July, depending on weather conditions. Also located near the trailers are two newly constructed storage buildings.
Another researcher has been studying quail and he visits the Preserve every couple of weeks to check his field stations, Heriberto Madrigal said.
Most of the students who come to the Preserve enjoy the seclusion of the area, adds Debra Madrigal, who notes that when she and her husband first arrived on the Beaver Dam Wash, they spent a lot of time walking, hiking and exploring the area.
On any given day, Heriberto said they will see or hear coyotes. In addition, they often see ringtail cats, kit fox, bobcats, badgers, desert tortoises, beaver, lizards and various snakes.
"We have the common black hawk that also nests here," Heriberto said, "and it's only found in this corner of Utah."
Because of the Preserve's isolated location, if the Madrigals need a grocery item, they can't automatically run to the store because it takes about an hour to get to St. George.
During the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001, Debra Madrigal said her sister called and asked if she was watching the news. Debra said she had to go out and start up the gas generator before she could turn on her television set. She said she noticed that day there were no contrails from overhead passing planes because all planes had been grounded by the federal government.
"Sometimes, you don't know the rest of the world exists until you go out to the road," she said, noting that the drive is 11 miles on a gravel road before reaching Highway 91 near Castle Cliffs, and another 25 miles on paved road to reach St. George.
The history of the Lytle Preserve dates back to 1855 when LDS President Brigham Young called Dudley and Mary Huntsman Leavitt to settle in Utah's Dixie. The Leavitts eventually settled in a ranch along the Beaver Dam Wash, according to a BYU Lytle Preserve brochure.
In 1878, one of their children, Hannah Louisa Leavitt married Thomas Sirls Terry, an original 1847 Utah pioneer who had also been called to the Dixie Mission in 1862.
In 1885, during the anti-polygamy raids, Terry was forced to move his family from Hebron, near Enterprise, Utah, to Mesquite, Nev., and in 1889, moved to the Leavitt ranch in the Beaver Dam Wash.
During the summer of 1889, Hannah Leavitt Terry gave birth to a baby girl and when Thomas Sirls Terry asked his wife what name they should give the child, Hannah said, "Call her Exile or Banish, I don't care which. (As she was banished from her home and in exile. Father gave me mother's full name, Louisa Hannah, and Exile…I couldn't say Exile, so I called myself Exie," as reprinted in the BYU Lytle Preserve brochure.
"In 1889, the Leavitt Ranch was purchased by Thomas S. Terry. In addition to raising grain and cattle, the Terry Ranch in Beaver Dam Wash was planted with fruit trees, some productive and some not so," the BYU brochure adds.
"In 1928, the property was purchased by John Eardley, whose wife and ten children cleared the fields and built the house, reservoir, fences, and ditches. They raised alfalfa, sorghum, melons, and fruit of various kinds," according to the BYU brochure.
Talmage and Eleanor (Marie) Bastian Lytle purchased the ranch in 1952 and the Lytle's ran the ranch until 1979 when they retired from ranching. In 1985 the Nature Conservancy purchased the ranch to preserve the ranch's natural features, and BYU acquired the property in August 1986.
Additional information about BYU's involvement in the ranch property was written by Stanley L. Welsh and published Jan. 20, 1996 in his "Lytle Preserve (1985-1995) and Short History of Beaver Dam Wash." Welsh's history was published by the Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum.

In an ideal world, Canada's three Major League Soccer teams would be full of young Canadian talent. We're still a long way from achieving that goal, and I fully understand that for clubs the emphasis is first and foremost on winning. Vancouver Whitecaps, Toronto FC and Montreal Impact are investing large sums of money into developing players but it's a long-term project and so far results have been extremely limited.
However, we have already seen some steps forward this year with some young Canadian players getting an opportunity in the opening weeks of the season. In Montreal, Quebec-born central defender Karl Ouimette stepped in admirably for Alessandro Nesta when the Italian veteran missed games injured, and in Sunday's 1-1 tie against Columbus Crew at Stade Saputo, Maxim Tissot made his professional debut as a late substitute for Marco Di Vaio.
In Toronto, although not developed by the club's Academy, there was still much cause for celebration when midfielder Jonathan Osorio scored his first professional goal for the club in the 2-2 tie against LA Galaxy last month. It was a great story to tell. A year ago he was watching his hometown club as a fan from the stands, and now he is part of the team being given adulation by those same supporters.
Across on the West coast, the Vancouver Whitecaps' Canadian content has been minimal through the last couple of seasons as they tried to establish themselves in Major League Soccer, but there is little doubt their owners are fully committed to developing talent and are anxious to see Canadians in their team on a regular basis in the future.
With that in mind, the standout performance of young Niagara Falls native Russell Teibert in Saturday's 1-1 tie against Real Salt Lake was a big moment for the club. A year ago, Teibert was a long way from 'Caps coach Martin Rennie's first team plans, but the midfielder says he has "reinvented himself" over the last few months. He has settled into a new position, and on Saturday showcased his talents for all to see.
The Canadian international was an attacking spark in the Whitecaps midfield. His passing was superb and he made intelligent runs to get into good areas of the pitch to be able to influence the game in a positive manner and create space for his teammates."I was just looking to create chances and the guys helped me out in that respect," said the 20-year-old. "I just have to make sure I stay involved in games and if I make a mistake just focus on the next pass.
"I'm just happy to be playing because a lot of the time last year I was up in the stands just wishing I could be down there on the field," said Teibert. "There were some nerves for me, but it's all about how you deal with those nerves. If you use nerves in the positive way they can be good, and as the game went on I was feeling more and more confident."
Now Teibert's challenge is cementing his place in the lineup. Saturday's match was the first time he has made back-to-back starts in MLS since March 2011 when Teitur Thordarson included him in the eleven for the Whitecaps first two MLS games.
Martin Rennie has plenty of options available to him, and right now Teibert is keeping the talented Ghanaian midfielder Gershon Koffie out of the team. Teibert and Koffie have massive potential and I would love to see a Whitecaps midfield three made up of the two youngsters alongside Nigel Reo-Coker. The Englishman's experience and leadership qualities are ideal for helping with the development of the two 'Caps youngsters.
"Nigel knows me very well both on and off the pitch," said Teibert. "He's like a brother and a great mentor to me so when I'm inside the middle of the field with him he definitely makes it a lot more comfortable for me."
As the Whitecaps head to face Western Conference leaders FC Dallas in Texas on Saturday, Teibert will likely make his third successive MLS start. It has been a long road for the Canadian youngster to get to this stage and this is only the beginning of the hard work, but so far he has risen to the challenge and that is a big boost for both club and country.

Central High Goes Pink For Breast Cancer Fighter | Health
Office clerk Sheila Hogan is a fixture at Central High School, so when she disappeared last fall, the students wanted to know why.
"I took off that whole semester to do my chemotherapy," said Hogan.
"I think it was shock," said Central High Junior Chancelynn Ridley. "A lot of people were shocked and just they were caught off-guard, like, ''Really? So is that why she's been missing?'"
Hogan's breast cancer diagnosis was an eye opener for some students like Ridley.
"It made me alert that breast cancer is real and it is happening."
But others, like 16-year-old Kyri Orr, already had family ties to the disease.
"We were talking about it, my auntie had breast cancer, and so when my mom went to get her mammogram done, I went with her," said Orr.
For the first time this October, Central High joined the pink ribbon culture.
"They made an announcement on the school intercom," explained sophomore Bob Bryson, "I heard, 'Get your t-shirts,' and that they cost $10."
The goal was to raise $1,000 for the Komen Foundation, an idea that started with a parent volunteer, and was supposed to involve just the teachers.
"Some of the students saw them, and they decided they wanted the t-shirts," said Hogan.
Aside from the t-shirts, there were glimpses of pink in student's apparel, and hints of the topic in classroom discussions.
Health and P.E. teacher Sheila Toombs had a quick question and answer session with her freshmen.
"Why not?" she said. "They get information about everything else, but why not cancer, why not breast cancer?"
Because, Toombs says, even though breast cancer is rare in people under 40, there's a good chance students will have to deal with it at some point.
"It can really hit at home sometimes," she said. "How do you react to that, and know you have to be loving and caring to those people and support also."
Hogan says that's exactly what her Central High family gave her.
If you want to get involved, there are more breast cancer events in the Macon area. For more events, visit komencentralga.org.

Peter Sheppard Skӕrved, violinist
On Friday 13th December between 18.30 and 20.00, I am performing in a concert in the Enlightenment Gallery, setting up a musical conversation between past and present, one that is reflective of the ideas of renewal and rediscovery summed up in the word 'Enlightenment'. Music of the 1600s and 1700s, by Giuseppe Torelli, Nicola Matteis, and Johann Jakob Walther will be played alongside brand new works, including one by leading composer David Gorton, responding to the challenge of the past.
David Gorton played a central role in my 2006 intervention in the Enlightenment Gallery, when 11 international composers created new work in conversation with my ideas about the space and the collection. Gorton's new work takes a bold imaginative leap, inspired by the Enlightenment's 'discovery of the past': how might we, in 2013, re-imagine musicians of the Enlightenment reviving, exploring, the music and the works of earlier epochs?
Gorton's first work for the Enlightenment Gallery was inspired by the copy of the Rosetta Stone made for George III. The resulting Rosetta Caprice has been played hundreds of times worldwide, recorded and filmed, and most recently, I presented it at a TED Conference in Norway. Follow the link to see a short film of its first appearance in the British Museum, in 2006.
Some of the composers working with me were inspired by the layers of history, the 'false leads', overlaying some of the most ancient man-made objects in the Enlightenment Gallery. Nashville-based composer Michael Alec Rose was inspired by the Grays Inn Handaxe, at one time thought to have been a Roman weapon. The title, Palimpsest, is a reflection of these layerings.
The Enlightenment was as much a revolution of technology and science as ideas and discovery. One of its most enduring legacies proved to be the instruments of the violin family, pioneered and perfected in the Italian cities of Cremona and Brescia across this period. This concert will be performed on a beautiful early example by the 'father of the violin', Andrea Amati, whose grandson Niccolo, would later teach Antonio Stradivari.
Peter Sheppard Skӕrved is the dedicatee of over 400 works for violin, and has recorded over 70 critically acclaimed albums of works from the 17th century to the present day. He regularly performs in over 30 countries, and has a unique record of collaboration with museums, working regularly with the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Library of Congress, Washington DC and the National Portrait Gallery, where he curated a major exhibition, Only Connect, in 2011-12. To see more of his work, visit www.peter-sheppard-skaerved.com
The performance Facing Enlightenment is in the Enlightenment Gallery, Friday 13 December, 18.30–20.00, Free, just drop in.

(some col.), maps. A print copy of this title is available through the UO Libraries under the call number: KNIGHT E78.O6 O37 2006 Many archaeological researchers that have conducted investigations in the Harney Valley of southeastern Oregon use the ethnographic description of the seasonal round of the Harney Valley Paiute reported by Beatrice Blyth Whiting in her 1950 work Paiute Sorcery as a framework for discussions of prehistoric human use of the area. Archaeological investigations of seven sites, situated in areas identified as having been utilized by the Harvey Valley Paiutes, were conducted to test the relationship between Whiting's ethnographic account and the archaeological record. Data recovery excavations occurred at the Hoyt (35HA2422), Morgan (35HA2423) and Hines (35HA2692) sites near Burns, and test excavations occurred at the Knoll (35HA2530) site in the Silvies Valley, the RJ site (35HA3013) in the Stinkingwater Mountains, and the Broken Arrow (35HA2735) and Laurie's (35HA2734) sites near Malheur Lake. Studies of the cultural materials recovered during the excavations were undertaken to evaluate the content and complexity of each site. Analyses included typological considerations of the chipped stone tools, ground stone, bone tools, and shell, bone, and stone beads. Radiocarbon dating, obsidian sourcing and hydration, and zooarchaeological and paleobotanical analyses were also conducted when possible. Based on the results of the analyses, the seven sites reported herein were primarily used during the past 2000 years, with periods of less intensive use extending beyond 4000 BP. The results of the archaeological investigations indicate that there is a strong correlation between the late Holocene prehistoric record and Whiting's ethnographic description. However, the relationship between human use of the centrally-located lakes and wetlands and the neighboring uplands is clearly more complex than the ethnographic record suggests. Patterns of settlement and mobility revealed through the archaeological record indicate that central places, located closer to wetlands and lacustrine settings but within relatively easy reach of the uplands, may have figured more prominently in the behavior of prehistoric populations than the seasonal round as described by Whiting. Future research will benefit from explorations of central place foraging, emphasizing the role of behavioral ecology in the placement of sites and patterns of site use within the Harney Valley and the northern Great Basin at large.

Skip to comments.Jesse Jackson: Long Voter Lines a Form of Suppression
Posted on 11/12/2012 9:55:02 AM PST by Sub-Driver
Jesse Jackson: Long Voter Lines a Form of Suppression By Patrick Burke November 12, 2012
(CNSNews.com) -- Reverend Jesse Jackson, founder and president of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, said that long lines at Pennsylvania polling places on Election Day were a form of voter suppression.
He added that he has not seen lines like the ones at early polling places in Ohio since the election of Nelson Mandela in South Africa.
Speaking on Election Day at a press conference in Ohio, Jackson said, But they dont have the early voting. They only vote today in Pennsylvania, so those will be very long lines. And very long lines, while they show one sign of commitment and the legality, also [are] a form of suppression.
He continued, We were able to see in Cincinnati this past Sunday literally thousands of people. I have not seen such lines since Mandelas first election in South Africa. And while it was good to see people that determined, it was also unfair for seniors to have to stand in the cold that long, or for those in wheelchairs who are rolled up front, by people who care to let them go up front. For those who are on crutches, for those who are blind, who have the dogs.
So we have reason to be vigilant because with such efforts to determine the outcome of the election through voter purging, and voter suppression is a great concern, he said.
President Obama won Pennsylvanias 20 electoral votes, which were added to his 332 total electoral votes that enabled him to win re-election.
(Excerpt) Read more at cnsnews.com ...
My polling place was at a senior citizen convalescent center. Wanna talk about long lines?
Voter fraud is also a form of suppression.
having to make an effort to find out about the issues being voted on; the background and positions of the candidates; and actually getting out of bed, dressed, and going to the polls on election day is also VOTER SUPPRESSION. (Sarcasism)
I've been disenfranchised!
'Black Friday' lines must be super duper suppresive when people camp overnight for a Kindle.
Reverend Jesse Jackson, founder and president of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, extortionist, community agitator, scammer of government funds for programs that benefit his pocket and life style much like Al Sharpton and oh yea the chicago messiah community organizer and chief himself. We might not have went over the fiscal cliff yet but we sure went over the sanity cliff.
two things:
1. not one rhyme in the quote.
2. Jesse's voters' were supressed into voting Democrat.
"Voter fraud is also a form of suppression."
Beat me to it.
Dead folk don't mind, Jesse. Just drag them up inch by inch and quit whinning.
Oppressive long voter lines.. well that supersedes the question of how 1000 registered voters can produce 1500 voters in neighborhoods suffering oppressive, long lines to vote. So the issue is not voter fraud — it's long, oppressive voter lines.
This is really funny—are we sure this isn't Satire?
So now because Whites show up to vote it suppresses the black vote.
"He added that he has not seen lines like the ones at early polling places in Ohio since the election of Nelson Mandela in South Africa"
LMAO—yeah and look what that did for South Africa.
This from a scumbag whose son is going to prison for political shenanigans with his Campaign funds yet got elected anyhow because the Negro's voted for him.
Racist CS.A real man would be ashamed to show his face, but that doesn't bother Jesse, the preacher who knocked up one of his followers.What a moral compass for blacks to follow.
Yet the media seeks out this joke of a man and tries to make what he says palpable.What a country we are leaving our kids.
Jesse, SHUT UP and go take care of your thieving mentally ill son.
Jeez, "won" the election and still whining about being treated unfairly.
Oh shoot! It's too much effort for his welfare constituents to get their @$$es off the couch and give up Oprah for an hour to go vote. Boo Hoo!
Hey Jessee - Obama is sending your kid to jail. Maybe you're next!
What? I thought everybody stayed home...
The mind boggles....
So the ones who were "suppressed", would those votes have been for Romney?
What am I missing here?
Hey Jesse, got a question. If one race were to vote almost entirely for a candidate of their own race, would that seem kind of bigoted to you?
Or let me put it to you this way Jesse. If the country voted almost 50/50 between GOP and dumcrat, and the population of one race voted >90% for one candidate... kind sounds like a statiscal error, or maybe something else was in play?
Whatcha think Jesse? Should we march? Should we demand reform? Should we demand an end to such racism? Jesse? Jesse?
Deliberately refusing to accept and count the votes of the military is voter suppression. It happened. Could we have some outrage over it?
If you feel suppression, youve had oppression
and this recession is about to become a depression
A mind is a terrible thing to waste; and he wasted his mind decades ago.
All that racist hatred has finally eaten away whatever was left of the brain God gave him.
"Jesse, SHUT UP and go take care of your thieving mentally ill son."
UH OH! ARE we certain that's a good idea? How'd Jr. get where he's at?
In that case I've been disenfranchised at fast food joints so many times I can't count.
What do these folks want that Blacks got the front of the line because they are black (that sounds fair right since we made them go to the back of the bus 50 flipping years ago).
Never mind...this is a ONE party system.
Anyone know the meaning of "cohorts"?
Anheuser/ Busch
The Bolsheviks won the election, but the race warlord still isn't happy.

Skip to comments.(TIME FOR A RESPONSE) DFU Letter to Howard Dean - stop lying about me OR ELSE!
Posted on 05/11/2007 8:29:17 PM PDT by doug from upland

Upland, CA 91786
Telephone: redacted

VIA E-Mail
Mr. Howard Dean
Fifth (Column) Floor, Democratic Headquarters
Washington, DC
Re: Statement re Republicans
Dear Mr Dean:
I am writing on behalf of fellow Republicans.
You have made the following statement: "You know, the Republicans are not very friendly to different kinds of people. They're a pretty monolithic party. Pretty much, they all behave the same, and they all look the same. ... It's pretty much a white Christian party.''
The statement made by you has been repeated and quoted throughout the major print media, on the internet, on the radio, and on television. It is, as you are aware, demonstrably, unequivocally and absolutely false. In particular, shame on you for "they all look the same." Just incredible.
No effort was made by you to ask me for a comment or to check the accuracy of this statement before you predictably and characteristically shot off your big mouth. Had you checked with me, I could have introduced you to Republicans I know who are rich, poor, black, brown, Asian, white, Christian, Muslim, Jewish, attorneys, students, unemployed, business owners, military personnel, truck drivers, plumbers, factory workers, radio talk show hosts, straight, gay, agnostic, and atheist. Had you made even a perfunctory effort to gather the facts, you would have been in a position that would give you direct knowledge of these revelations.
The statement quoted above is false and defamatory, is libelous and slanderous and clearly threatens to interfere with any Republican's ability to be respected in the eyes of his community. For these reasons, I demand that you immediately cease and desist from further dissemination of the above quoted statement or any statement similar in substance and immediately post a retraction of these statements on the DNC website in a location at least as prominent as that on which the original story appeared. Also, I demand that you apologize on a major television network during prime time, while wearing appropriate attire for you, a clown costume. Please end the statement with a great big YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA. I love that.
Please let me know by noon, May 14, 2007, whether you intend to comply with these requests.
Thanks for your time and immediate attention to this important matter.
Sincerely yours,
Doug from Upland
PS Should I send a copy of this to a slip and fall attorney somewhere?
BUMP for excellence in freeping.
Just remember he has yet to address the question of whether or not he and his wife raised their own children on the proceeds of abortions she performed or advised.
Gad, it must make those people to feel really sick deep down inside knowing that the Deans are the source of their own flawed genomes.
wtg Doug!
If they push this, I personally pledge to start 10 blogs under fake names to post really off the wall ACTUALLY made up things.
Play the libs "so many turds on the wall, one has to stick" back on them for once.
We know which cowboy is wearing the white in this showdown.
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE that was excellent.
Hide the salami? Disgusting sexual innuendo worthy of 8th grade. Hide the salami is what Bill Clinton did as he spread his DNA all over the White House.
MOST Excellent!
Very nice Doug, I'm just mad I didn't think of this first. Kudo's to you
clown costume and a BIG YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAA
Way to go Doug. Great letter.
See http://www.thetalentshow.org/2004/01/10/more-dean-as-hitler-talk/ for the alleged details.
This stuff was pulled from FR on 1/10/2004, for the reason "This is not the kind of thread we need".

That's the list. I'm sure there is much more.
DFU SONG: Dream (Howard Dean will scream, scream, scream)
DFU SONGS | 2-2005 | Lyrics, Doug from Upland
Posted on 02/09/2005 1:22:45 PM PST by doug from upland
MIDI - DREAM - scroll down to 50s and 60s
Scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scree-eam
Scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scream
If you tell me, come and speak
Please rest assured that I will freak
Whenever you see me, you can count on me to scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scream
I hate George Bush and it shows
Well, that is just the way it goes
Whenever you see me, you can count on me to scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scream
You know in your guts I am really nuts
You need only half a brain
If you ask my shink...she thinks...that Manson is far less insane
So I will chair the DNC
Oh my, what fun it's gonna be
Whenever you see me, you can count on me to scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scream
You know in your guts I am really nuts
You need only half a brain
If you ask my shink...she thinks...that Manson is far less insane
So, GOP, you should watch out
I'm working on a brand new shout
Whenever you see me, you can count on me to scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scream
I'll scre-ee-ee-eeam...I will scream...I'll scream
...I thought you wrote the list, I must have got it somewhere else...
I can only take credit for finding someone else's compilation of THE BEST OF DEAN.
Most excellent!
Orderly's attempt to prevent Howard from hurting himself only partially successful
"I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for," former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean told Democrats gathered at a Manhattan hotel
What is he doing? It looks like he thinks is a Samurai sword.
You can do this? I don't envy you your dreams. Your imagination is far too wierd. ;)
Substitute "atheist" for "Christian" and Dean is pretty much describing the (Maoist) state that he once governed.
That's funny considering I could always spot the RATS in a crowd during the 2000 election. They look like...."street people".
"We ought to reach out to those folks ... and not be afraid "
He's a couple of more nuggets of wisdom from the head of the DNC.
"We won't always have the strongest military."
"From a religious point of view, if God had thought homosexuality is a sin, he would not have created gay people."
" I don't hate Republicans as individuals. But I hate what the Republicans are doing to this country. I really do."
"I hate Republicans and everything they stand for."
" I have my warts. I sometimes say things that get me in trouble. In other words, I lead with my heart and not my head. That's the only chance we have against George Bush."
" I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks. We can't beat George Bush unless we appeal to a broad cross-section of Democrats. "
"I think most people... would be glad to pay the same taxes they paid when Bill Clinton was president, if only they could have the same economy they had when Bill Clinton was president."
" I will use whatever position I have in order to root out hypocrisy. Democrats have strong moral values. Frankly, my moral values are offended by some of the things I hear on programs like 'Rush Limbaugh,' and we don't have to put up with that."
"The idea that we're going to win this war is an idea that unfortunately is just plain wrong."
I still have this old-fashioned notion that even with people like Osama, who is very likely to be found guilty, we should do our best not to, in positions of executive power, not to prejudge jury trials,
" Tom DeLay ought to go back to Houston where he can serve his jail sentence. "
I've been trying to find an email for him. When I find it, he will get it.
could it be email@example.com
This is great. If Sandler wants to keep his eye on us, perhaps he can join us to explain the four false FEC reports filed for Hillary Clinton. How about the $721K that the FEC determined was deliberately hidden?

Could be, or maybe it's email@example.com LOL!
If any of you have a extra couple minutes, please go ask a question here so I can rip Hillary — http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220110055792&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:US:1
Or, God help us if true, that it's unfair to Hitler?
Frankly I don't like either one of them, but maybe Dean a bit more than Hitler.
Was Hitler's wife an abortionist?
