The 2010 Census: Population and Congressional Apportionment
Yep, it's census stuff, from here. Roll over states for their particulars. I think it mostly speaks for itself - the Rust Belt continues to Rusts, the Sun Belt continues to... not rust. One thing I notice about the latter, though, is that there seems to be a bit of consolidation relative to earlier decades. Whereas growth had been widespread across many southern and western states from the 70s through the 90s, it seems a bit more focused in the last ten years, mainly centering on the states associated with megaregions: the Piedmont Atlantic (Georgia and the Carolinas), the Texas Triangle (Texas), and Florida (Florida) in particular. Less urbane states in the broader region, like Tennessee or New Mexico didn't gain as much in the past decade, relatively speaking. Blip? Trend? I speculate half-heartedly, you decide.

Head Coach hails Wolves' late show
Kenny Jackett tonight hailed his players for coming through a stern test of character as Matt Doherty's late winner at Bristol City made it seven points from the opening nine in Sky Bet League One.
Wolves dominated the opening period and should have been further ahead than Bakary Sako's spectacular free kick, but an equaliser from Jay Emmanuel-Thomas eight minutes after the break prompted some City pressure and left the game evenly poised.
Carl Ikeme made an excellent double save from Sam Baldock to keep Wolves level, and a strong finish then saw Doherty's connection on Sako's cross loop into the net despite a desperate attempt to clear from Aden Flint.
While Jackett will be hoping Wolves will become more ruthless to take more advantage of their dominant spells, he was delighted to see the players recover from the second half setback to finish so strongly and win the game six minutes from time.
"It was a great win for us," said Jackett.
"Sako has got a fantastic strike with his left foot and it was a tremendous opening goal for us.
"If you are looking at the amount of possession we had – the amount of corners and shots – we should have been further ahead.
"We played very well in the first half but while it was only 1-0, as the away side you are always concerned.
"Bristol City were always going to have a spell and they did, coming back with an equaliser.
"After that it was a test of character to make sure we were the team which won 2-1, rather than lost 2-1.
"For a while there it looked like it could go either way, and it became our test, to see whether we could come back and win the game in front of a large and passionate Ashton Gate crowd.
"Carl made a couple of great saves, as did their keeper, and the game could have gone either way so I'm delighted we came through it.
"We came back into the match very well towards the end and overcame the equaliser when you'd expect the home side to step up and be favourites."
Jackett continued: "We should have been more ruthless when we were in control of the game.
"But teams don't make it easy for you and Bristol City were very organised and have a very good coach.
"They have some quality players and were always going to have a spell and we rode that.
"For a ten or 15 minute spell after their goal I thought we didn't pass the ball as well as we can and we lost a little bit of confidence.
"We shouldn't do that just because of one setback, and can't lose confidence and stop making the right pass or looking for the ball.
"If we can play proper football I think we can achieve a lot.
"Having said that, character is a big factor as well as technique and to come through in a game which could have gone either way is a very good achievement."
The winning goal prompted plenty of post-match talk as to whether it can be attributed to Doherty.
Conclusion was that it could, despite Flint perhaps getting the last touch, as it may have been goalbound in any case.
"Doherty is claiming it which is no surprise," said Jackett with a smile.
"It looked like the defender got the last touch whether that be on the line or whether it was already in.
"Kevin Doyle was putting the defender under pressure at the time and I am sure the TV replay will clear it up.
"It was a good run and a very good contribution from a full back to come up with a telling touch."
Despite Wolves' excellent start to the league season, Jackett is not getting carried away and has re-iterated that any considered early reflections will not come until after 10 games.
But he is pleased with the early results, particularly as he is challenging the players to show more improvement in the coming weeks.
"It was a real test because last year this was a Championship game and to come to Ashton Gate and take the points is a big achievement for us and a big statement," he added.
"That shows good character although there is still much for us to improve on and much for us to work on.
"We are only a few games into the season and I think there are a lot of areas we can improve on, and that needs to be the case.
"In any division you need to get results from games like this, it became a big test of character for our players to make sure we came through it and we did.
"It's seven points from nine and two of those games have been away from home so we are very pleased with that.
"But I feel a start is ten games – that would give us a really good reflection of where we are."

Members of more than 50 Parliaments have committed themselves to tackling the global challenge posed by the surging worldwide diabetes pandemic.
The Parliamentarians released the Melbourne Declaration on Diabetes at the World Diabetes Congress of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in Melbourne, Australia today.
The Declaration was agreed at the first-ever Parliamentary Champions For Diabetes Forum held in Melbourne earlier this week. The Declaration has established the Parliamentarians for Diabetes Global Network. The Parliamentarians decided to act in light of new International Diabetes Federation (IDF) data estimating that by 2035 there will be 600 million people with diabetes, about one in ten of the world's population, and a further 450 million at risk of developing the disease.
The Declaration acknowledges the increasingly serious social, economic and medical threat faced by nations large and small by the increasing diabetes pandemic.
The signatories have committed themselves to working across Parliaments to ensure that diabetes is high on the political agenda in every country. They want to see more preventative work, and then early diagnosis, management and access to adequate care, treatment and medicines is available for all those living with diabetes.
Welcoming the Declaration, the President of the International Diabetes Federation Sir Michael Hirst said "This is an important moment in the political battle to ensure that governments understand the threat the world faces from diabetes. This is a global challenge requiring a global response. The Melbourne Declaration provides our parliamentary supporters with the tools to raise the issue in every country across the world and press for change".
The Hon. Judi Moylan is the Global Coordinator of the Parliamentarians for Diabetes Global Network with British MP Adrian Sanders as President. Simon Busuttil, Malta's opposition leader and Dr Rachel Nyamai MP from Kenya are Vice-Presidents. Sir Michael Hirst, President of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and Guy Barnett, a former Australian Senator and Co-Chairs of the Forum are ex-officio members of the Executive Committee.
Download the Melbourne Declaration on Diabetes.
Notes for editors:
Diabetes is a major threat to the health and productivity of all nations. Diabetes is a leading cause of blindness, amputations, kidney failure, heart attacks and stroke, and early death. Disadvantaged people in every country carry the greatest burden and indigenous communities are especially vulnerable.
However, there are solutions for managing and preventing the diabetes pandemic and we need to embrace them now.
The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) is the global advocate for the more than 382 million people with diabetes worldwide as well as their families and healthcare providers. IDF is a non-governmental organisation of over 200 member associations in more than 160 countries in official relations with the World Health Organization and is associated with the Department of Public Information of the United Nations. The mission of the International Diabetes Federation is to promote diabetes care, prevention and a cure worldwide.

Two letters engraved into a natural stone pebble. A delicate script creating your own personal monogram - perfect for weddings, anniversaries or a romantic keepsake.
GREY - warm plum-grey hues / WHITE - off-white chalky hues (there will be variations in colour, markings and shape as this is a natural stone product)
All letters are engraved as capitals. We can also engrave a date, name or word on the reverse for an extra £6 (this text will be the normal typeface as shown on our datestone as the script is too delicate for more than 2 letters). Reverse text - maximum of 10 characters on grey, 7 on white or 8 if a date. Dates are converted to numbers eg: 15.08.11
Gift box - A stylish white gift box is available, tied with ribbon.
Please note:
The pebbles are not man-made. They are natural stones smoothed flat on river beds and may contain imperfections e.g. chips, fissures and cracks, mottling, colour blemishes and fine grey thread lines (the white shows up more flaws than the grey and come in a range of shapes). Stones will vary in size, shade, shape and texture; if you order two stones they will not match. We have taken a rough, organic product and left it in its natural state, engraving the type like a stamp in the stone. We hope you'll appreciate the uniqueness of these natural stones, and treasure them as a personalised keepsake.
Grey - length range between 8-12cm. White - length range between 6-7cm. See other listings for larger pebbles with more engraving.

Denver, Colorado February 15th, 2013 - Magpul Industries, an Erie, Colorado, based manufacturer of firearms accessories, announced today that it will be forced to leave the state if House Bill 1224, which would ban standard capacity magazines, becomes law. The announcement was made to Governor Hickenlooper, state legislators, members of the media, and in a full-page advertisement to appear in the Denver Post on Sunday.
Richard Fitzpatrick, Founder, President, and CEO of Magpul Industries, said that regardless of any amendments that may be worked into the bill, he will no longer be able to continue to do business in Colorado if his core product is made illegal.
Our company could not, in good conscience, continue to manufacture our products in a state where law-abiding citizens are prohibited from purchasing and owning them. Fitzpatrick said. The passage of this bill will do nothing to enhance public safety, but will force us to immediately begin taking our business to another state.
A proponent of the bill argued that with the amendment language, the choice to stay or leave was up to Magpul. Fitzpatrick responded, "Our relationship with our customers across the country would be severely damaged if this bill passes and we stay. We've already heard word of potential boycotts if that happens. They (legislators) really need to understand that our customer base is as passionate about freedoms as we are, and staying here if this bill passes would cripple the company. Make no doubt about it...we have no choice, and would be forced to leave in order to save the business."
Magpul cited the example of the Eastern Sports and Outdoors Show, which was canceled earlier this year after the organizers announced that it would not permit a popular category of firearm, like the ones Magpul makes accessories for, in the show. Public outcry from the customer base forced exhibitors to withdraw from participation, causing the cancellation of the show, and an estimated loss of $70 million of show revenue for hotels, restaurants, merchants, and other businesses in Pennsylvania, where the show was to be held.
Magpul Industries directly employs 200 people, supports another 400 supply-chain jobs, and contributes over $85 million annually to Colorados economy. Doug Smith, Chief Operating Officer for Magpul, says that it is a difficult position to be in. "We could choose to stay in a state that wants our jobs and revenue, but not our products, and lose half the jobs we are fighting to save, or potentially the entire business, when our customers stop buying. Or, we can take the company and those 600 jobs out of Colorado to continue our growth and the growth of American manufacturing in a state that shares our values. This is not really a choice. It's an unfortunate and inevitable result of the actions of the Legislature if this bill passes."
Magpul was started over a decade ago by Fitzpatrick, a former U.S. Marine. It has become one of Colorados fastest growing businesses, successfully marketing its products to American and allied military forces, police departments, sporting goods stores, and thousands of responsible private citizens. Fitzpatrick says that the rich western culture and strong values of individual freedom and responsibility, traditionally found in Colorado, were one of the reasons the company chose to remain in the state.
It is heartbreaking to me, my employees, and their families, to think that we will be forced to leave, Fitzpatrick said. But if HB13-1224 passes, we will simply have no choice.
All hunters from out of state should stop supporting the state as well. Outdoor tourism etc... They won't, but they should. They state is biting a big hand that feeds it.
Bill Davis
Im wondering if this is why Gooser is thinking of moving. Gooser do you work for Magpul or a supplier? Im hoping your possible move to Ga is of your own volition & not forced on you by idiot legislation
It never stops! Does it? This is like a horror movie in real life! These so called political hacks all need replaced.
Crap similiar to this is lurking in MN. It has not made it into a bill or onto the house floor yet, but if it did, and became law, DPMS would be shut down as it would be illegal to manufacture as well as posess a AR platform rifle.
Never trust a dog to watch your food!
I'm speech less. Same thing should happen in Illinois, they are home to some pretty big firearm manufactures also. I hope that Magpul is willing to make it worth while for its employees to pick up and move with them, right down to the building maintenance staff.
Colorado is not a right to work state. I wonder if this is a Union shop. If so, I doubt they will subsidized employees moving expenses. Colt is building a manufacturing plant in Florida at this moment. They are taking proactive measures for the up and coming Connecticut legislation.
Elections have consequences... you elect left wing fruitcakes... this is what we all get. It's coming nationwide, (not so slowly any more).

MOOREVILLE – Kenny Paul Geno's 3-pointer at the halftime horn was like a needle that popped Mooreville's balloon.
The shot gave Booneville a one-point lead and the Blue Devils never trailed again in a 59-43 win in the MHSAA Class 3A North quarterfinals.
"I thought the first half we had a lot of trouble with matchups and the second half our effort defensively was better," Booneville coach Michael Smith said. "They didn't get some transition run-outs they did in the first half."
Booneville (26-4), the Journal's fourth-ranked team, is one win away from its third straight trip to the state tournament. It was the second win over Mooreville in three games.
The Blue Devils will face East Side tonight at 6 p.m.
No. 2 Mooreville (27-5) scored 10 points in the second half. Jack Nichols scored 10 for Booneville and finished with 21.
Geno scored a game-high 22 points and had 12 rebounds. Booneville fought off Mooreville's only serious threat in the third quarter with another buzzer-beater, a 3 from Antonio Crump for a 49-41 lead.
Nichols went to the goal on an inbounds and gave Booneville a 51-41 lead in the fourth. Crump followed with one of his four 3-pointers and Geno's alley-oop dunk from Nichols had Booneville ahead 16.
Kelsey Scott had 17 for Mooreville, five of the Troopers' second-half points.
"They just hit and we just didn't," said Mooreville coach Jeff Tally. "We had looks and they just wouldn't go down."
Ben Seay scored Mooreville's only two points of the fourth. Mooreville let the final minute wind down without fouling.
A 3-pointer from Scott had Mooreville within seven but Brandon Moore missed a pair of free throws and Crump connected from deep.
"That was huge, a big momentum swing," Smith said. "It's not really what we were trying to get but he's a great shooter, as good a shooter in rhythm as you'll see and he made a big shot."

OXFORD – Most hands were on deck at Monday's first bowl practice for Ole Miss. Not all hands were involved all the time.
Quarterback Bo Wallace practiced but in a limited capacity, as Rebels coach Hugh Freeze attempts to get as much rest as possible for the ailing shoulder that has plagued Wallace since he took a hit in the Tulane game.
"We have seven full practices after we get back from Christmas. We're going to try to hold him until those seven. We're just trying to make sure he has as much pop in his arm as he can for the bowl game," Freeze said.
Surgery in the off-season is a possibility for Wallace. That decision will be made after the bowl game.
bowl preparation
In their first organized practice since gaining bowl-eligibility with a 41-24 win over Mississippi State in the season finale, the Rebels worked for roughly two hours.
The only potential academic casualty for the bowl game is senior tight end Jamal Mosley.
Ferbia Allen, the Rebels' other senior tight end, sustained a torn MCL against Vanderbilt. He missed the final two games of the regular season but is expected to play Jan. 5 against Pittsburgh in the BBVA Compass Bowl, even though he'll play at somewhat less than full strength.
Full strength is a status that Wallace, a first-year junior college transfer, rarely enjoyed en route to winning the Conerly Trophy.
"It just got worse as the season went on. Once it got so bad, it really wasn't going to get any worse, so you just play through it. If you have to get it fixed, you get it fixed," he said.
Through the pain Wallace completed 63.4 percent of his passes for 19 touchdowns and 15 interceptions.
He needs 157 passing yards against Pitt – which is No. 22 nationally in pass efficiency defense – to reach 3,000 passing yards for the season.
Wallace has been working his shoulder with weights and the elastic band. He said had the Rebels had another regular season game following the Egg Bowl he'd have been ready.
"Oh, I'd have played. The Mississippi State game it felt better than it did midway through the season. I think the Vandy game it was hurting really bad. The LSU game it was hurting really bad, after that week, I kind of sat that week, but for Mississippi State I was fine."

RAYMOND WEIL awarded as the best watch brand!
RAYMOND WEIL is honoured to announce its recognition as the Best Watch Brand by easyJet travellers!
Last summer, the flight company easyJet, launched its first-ever easyJet Traveller Readers' Awards, asking their passengers, to vote online for their favourite products, places and services across the network.
Voters were absolutely free to enter their favorite brand, as there were no brands suggestions. 110'000 users took part to this award and the Swiss family firm RAYMOND WEIL received the Award of the Best Watch Brand.
RAYMOND WEIL is absolutely delighted to receive this Award from the Easy Jet passengers. It is a significant recognition for the independant and family owned company and for all the partners and staff who largely contribute to the Brand's international success.
This Award is the response to the strategy adopted in recent years, and which has brought RAYMOND WEIL to become one of the leading brands in the watchmaking industry. Key factors in the firm's success include the constant renewal of its product range, with the introduction of new, increasingly sophisticated mechanical timepieces (such as don giovanni così grande jumping hour); strengthening collections at the lower end of the price-range (like noemia, a feminine collection); a wider-reaching communications strategy; and the launch of the RW Club (the first club to be set up by a luxury watchmaking brand).

|Worldwide Flyfishing Discussion Talk flyfishing with members around the world!
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Thanks for the responses fellas. I've done a little research and I think it's the Teeny Pro Series Flip Pallot line (85ft; orange) that was developed a few years ago.
I wanted to know what line it was so that I would be able to determine what applications it would be best suited for. I've tried casting it (no fly) on the 13wt rod in a field, and I think it casts fine, but how it behaves on water with a fly tied to it may differ (especially with wind). Now that I think I know what it is, I'm better able to determine where its use is most appropriate. Perhaps sight fishing for tarpon, but not great for deepwater applications. Thanks again for your input.
Hi Alosa
I don't know what line that is, it could be a Teeny. It is normal for a saltwater line to have a short head as it helps turnover when fishing with big flies.
Is your problem is that you are not sure if the line matches the rod then why don't you try casting it.
A 13wt is a very big gun and in between a normal heavy weight flats rod (12wt) and a blue water rod (14wt).
However if you can cast with it then great.
Welcome to the Forum. Sorry I can't be of help in ID'ing your line, but others on this Forum surely will.
Good luck with your Florida Gulf fishing. I've really enjoyed fishing Pine Island Sound, Sanibel and Captiva over the years. It's always been the snook for me; took one trip to Boca Grande (by default, everything else was blown out), and saw lots of tarpon (one of my absolute favorite fish), but they weren't interested in anything I had. Great sight, though. Like being in an aquarium.
Again, welcome.
New member introduction and line ID help
I am a new member from California. Although I've been flyfishing for a few years now, most of that experience has been in freshwater (lakes/rivers) for trout, steelhead, salmon, bass, and American shad (hence the name Alosa) along the Pacific coast (Washington, Oregon, and California). I've recently set myself up for the saltwater game (Sage Xi2 13wt, Tibor Gulfstream) and am excited to chase a variety of saltwater fish. In fact, I have family living near Boca Grand, Florida, and I am very excited about chasing tarpon when the migration goes through that region. Anyways, I am happy to be a part of another fly fishing forum, and I look forward to learning a lot from you folks about the saltwater aspect of this amazing sport.
Now on to my question. I picked up a used saltwater reel (the Tibor mentioned above) this weekend that already had a line on it, but the seller had no info about the line. The seller had it set up for a saltwater trip to the Yucatan region, but never used the reel or the line, because the gear he brought (12 wt rod) was overkill for what they were fishing for.
Here's what I think about the line based on some information provide by the seller, preliminary observations and measurements:
1) 12 wt full floating line
2) Orange in colour
3) Approx. 80-90 ft in length
4) Approx. 30 foot head section that is noticeably heavier than the remainder of the line. I know this is what a head section is supposed to be, but this things is SUPER stacked up in the forward 30 feet.
I'd post a picture of the line if I knew how...
My guess is that this line is 2-3 years old, and I was told its never been used. Little help?

Survivor Project is a non-profit organization dedicated to addressing the needs of intersex and trans survivors of domestic and sexual violence through caring action, education and expanding access to resources and to opportunities for action. Since 1997, we have provided presentations, workshops, consultation, materials, information and referrals to many anti-violence organizations and universities across the country, as well as gathered information about issues faced by intersex and trans survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
Our Philosophies
Multi-Issue Anti-Oppression Work
While we are specialized in addressing the unique issues of intersex and trans survivors of domestic and sexual violence, Survivor Project is committed to resisting and confronting all violence and oppression (such as racism, sexism, classism, ableism, etc.) at every level, including and especially within our own organization. We consider ourselves not just an intersex and trans organization, but a multi-issue economic and social justice organization specialized in intersex and trans survivors' issues. We expect our staff and board members to continuously educate themselves and each other on various social justice issues, and work in coalition with a number of progressive organizations at both local and national levels.
Survivor-Positive Organizing
As survivor-activists, we believe that providing opportunities for survivors to engage in anti-violence activism is as much part of our mission as providing them services. Unfortunately, many anti-violence organizations (e.g. domestic violence shelters) view survivor-activists as a liability unless they can constantly act as if they have completely healed from their abuse. Survivor Project, on the other hand, is committed to accommodating unique issues survivors face (e.g. triggers, flashbacks, and dissociation) just as we do with people with physical disabilities by working with survivor-activists to develop individualized strategies that would minimize risks and maximize safety and comfort for all. In addition, our volunteers are welcome to utilize our services as clients while off duty.
Empowerment & Harm Reduction
We honor all survivors' wisdoms as well as their own unique ways of coping, even when we feel that the particular method of coping employed by a survivor may be harmful to her or him in some way (e.g. drug and alcohol use, self-injury, staying with the abuser, survival sex). We believe that our job is to listen and to support whatever ways survivors cope. When we feel that the survivor is in a dangerous situation, we will offer to assist her or him develop a "safety plan" in order to reduce risks or harm. We will offer information and referrals for alternatives only when it is requested by the survivor.

Musouka said [I] (had like 2 or 3 years of [programming java] HS oriented so mostly Object based programming) and i wanted to know if any of you guys had any hints or tricks to getting to know and remember the language?
I'm not sure what HS-oriented Java is: high-school course in programming? You might find these resources useful:
- You can download Bruce Eckel's ageing-but-popular book from his Thinking in Java site;
- Work through a problem set that tests programming skills that you want to solve. If you are at all mathematically oriented, then the Project Euler questions will provide a good workout with core parts of the language like collections. There are other puzzles out there that will test your ability to get Java to solve problems like extracting information from XML, handling UI, or interacting with a server;
- Look at free-software projects: a question on Stack Overflow, well written java open source projects (for learning)?, had some answers that might be interesting for you.
About your user page: there are quite a few people, myself included, who don't think that Facebook makes a good homepage for Advogato. Creating a page for yourself on a public code repository, say, Github or Bitbucket, makes for a better homepage. You could post your coding efforts there

One of the things Savannah is best known for is her squares so starting today we'll be doing a blog on a square every month. We'll start our journey with Savannah's first and biggest square: Johnson Square. The square was named after longtime friend of General Oglethorpe and Governor of South Carolina, Robert Johnson. Johnson aided Oglethorpe by providing food and a safe escort to Georgia, but he is most well known for a successful military campaign defending Charleston from pirates.
Since it was the first, Johnson square served many purposes for the locals. Many of the essential shops for everyday life were located there including a sundial to tell the time. The sundial was dedicated to the memory of William Bull (also the namesake of Bull Street). Bull was another South Carolina resident who assisted in the creation of Savannah.
Speeches were delivered here by Presidents Washington and Monroe, Daniel Webster, and General Marquis de La Fayette. News of South Carolina's succession from the Union was also read here. In the middle of the square is an obelisk dedicated to Nathaniel Greene, ironically the namesake of a neighboring square. Originally, the obelisk was purely decoration until years later when the Revolutionary War era General's remains were interred there.

Writer speaks on Armenian Genocide, April 25
Posted April 22, 2005; 11:54 a.m.
Peter Balakian, an award-winning writer and a professor of English and humanities at Colgate University, will deliver the keynote address at a Monday, April 25, event commemorating the 90th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. The event will be held at 4:30 p.m. in 302 Frist.
Responding to his address will be Gary Bass, Princeton assistant professor of politics and international affairs, and Kwame Anthony Appiah, Princeton's Laurance S. Rockefeller University Professor of Philosophy and the University Center for Human Values. The event, sponsored by the Humanity Project, commemorates the killing of more than 1 million Armenians by the "Young Turk" government of the Ottoman Empire in 1915-16.
Balakian is the author of "Black Dog of Fate" (1998), which won the PEN/Martha Albrand Prize for Memoir. His other books include "The Burning Tigris: The Armenian Genocide and America 's Response" (2003) and "June-tree: New and Selected Poems, 1974-2000" (2004). He is also the director of Colgate's new Center for the Study of Ethics and World Societies.

I'm trying to put together a custom figure using the 12" figures. Problem is, I need a Lightsaber from one of the 12" figures.
Does anyone have an extra or whatever that they are willing to sell? I'd rather not pay $20 to buy another 12" figure just for the saber (unless someone would want to buy the extra jedi figure from me minus his saber).
Do you think Hasbro would hook me up with one?
Let me know what you all think. I really want a blue one, but really I'll take any of the 12" figure sabers (cept vintage, they look really short and are probably a decent amount anyways).

Now let's revisit novelist Susan Page Davis, author of The Lady's Maid (Barbour, October 2011).
Susan Page Davis is the author of thirty-seven published novels. Prairie Dreams is her new series from Barbour Publishing. A Maine native, Susan now lives in Kentucky with her husband, Jim. She's a past winner of the Carol Award and the Inspirational Readers' Choice Contest.
Please tell us five random things we might not know about you.
--As a child, I had a huge collection of stuffed animals I called my "Nephew Club."
--I now collect old tea tins.
--I worked as a news correspondent for about 25 years.
--I have two new grandsons this year—Silas Davis and Fox Ballard.
--I'm a blue-eyed woman married to a green-eyed man.
What great names your grandsons have!
I love the Nephew Club idea. When my son was a little kid, he used to tell me stories about his adventures with "my boys and my buvvers" (brothers). All imaginary. Kids are just so cute.
Please tell us a bit more about the plot of The Lady's Maid.
The Lady's Maid is the first book in my new Prairie Dreams historical romance series. Elise Finster accompanies her young British mistress, Lady Anne Stone, on a voyage to America in 1855. Lady Anne's father has died, and her Uncle David is the new Earl of Stoneford—if he steps forward and claims the title. But David disappeared into the American West when Anne was a baby. Now it's up to her and Elise to find him. They join a wagon train in Independence, Missouri, not realizing they're leading a killer straight to David.
Exciting! What is it about Elise that will make your readers care about her?
Elise is a commoner, but she's lived most of her life in the home of an aristocratic family. When she and Lady Anne take to the wilderness, Elise feels great responsibility in keeping Anne safe and making sure they can both take care of themselves without a host of domestic servants.
Imagine God has led you to accept a contract to ghostwrite someone's autobiography. Whose is it? Why that person?
Princess Anne of England. I've always been fascinated by her as a person and a horsewoman.
What is the last book you read that you would recommend?
Make a Scene, by Jordan E. Rosenfeld. It's a book for writers on writing scenes within your story. I found it very helpful in showing me where some of my scenes were lacking. For fiction, I'm reading through the Miracles of Marble Cove series from Guideposts, as they recently asked me to write book #12 in this series. I especially enjoyed book #4, Beacon's Call, by Leslie Gould.
What are you working on now?
Besides the Marble Cove book, I am finishing book 3 in the Prairie Dreams series, to follow The Lady's Maid and Lady Anne's Quest. The final book is called A Lady in the Making.
Where else can readers find you online?
I'd love to see you at my website, www.susanpagedavis.com.
The book is available at fine book stores and for online purchase through these buttons:
Finally, what question would you like to ask my readers?
In The Lady's Maid, Mrs. Harkness doesn't want to leave behind her grandmother's cupboard or the children's box of schoolbooks. Elise and Anne have to part with a portion of their extensive wardrobes. If you were taking a wagon train in 1855, what one thing would you refuse to leave behind?
I love that question. Sometimes I consider that, with regard to dashing out because of a house fire, etc. But in this case, you're letting people stop and really think. What do you say, readers?
Thank you, Susan, for visiting with us and telling us about your novel. Readers, Susan has offered to give a signed copy of her book to the winner of our drawing on Monday, November 7. To enter, leave a comment below in answer to Susan's question, above. "Please enter me" won't get you entered. Leave your email address, in case you win, like so: trish[at]trishperry[dot]com.
Be sure to check out my interview with DiAnn Mills, below. Leave an appropriate comment at the bottom of the post to enter the drawing for signed copy of her book.
Annoying legal disclaimer: drawings void where prohibited; open only to U.S. residents; the odds of winning depend upon the number of participants. See full disclaimer HERE.

He did what's expected of him. Nothing more nothing less. He's the President, it's his job.
I haven't seen him walk on water or balance a budget. The difference between bushes Katrina and obamas Katrina..... ..these people are not sitting and waiting on he gov they are pitching in and doing what needs to be done. Prayers sent to all of them.

A president promises everything he can, to help the people. Bush did and Obama did. What do you think Obama would do say I'm sorry your on your own? It's his job. I know its something we are not used to seeing, Obama acting like the president.
Obama has a better chance of walking on water than lowering unemployment, cutting the debt, or living up to any other promise he made four years ago.
I dont know who will win I pray its Romney but who knows.
Welcome back M.S.

Just last month there were so many people on here moaning about the deficit and blaming Obama for it. Where are you now? Do you even know how much this is going to cost? The air force is flying cargo plans full of energy company trucks and staff. Who is going to pay for that? Those poor people taking money away for those of you who have worked so hard.
Romney wants to get rid of FEMA or flip flopped and now won't even answer any questions about it.
All success belongs to the dog, all failure to the trainer.

Among other things, I've been playing with Pete Zaitcev's JavaStation. It's a nice little device that I've pretty much got everything working on at the moment, except for X. Hell, using the patch from here, I even have swap over nfs working on it... though I confess that I feel a bit dirty about it. :)
Other than that, been keepin' busy with a bunch of little things. I got another 256MB of RAM for my U1 and did a little shifting, leaving the SS20 with 144MB and the U1 with 320MB... and lemme tell you, this U1 just plain ROCKS right now. :) Doris's first final (out of five) is today... she's stressing out, but she'll be ok. :)

The results of five games in 24 days will almost certainly decide the Wellington Phoenix's fate in the A-League.
One of six teams chasing the last two spots in the top six for the play-offs, the Phoenix have three of those matches against similarly placed teams.
The last three of that five-match spread will be played at home although one, the March 3 battle with Melbourne Heart, will be under the roof in Dunedin.
On Thursday night they are at Bluetongue Stadium to play leaders Central Coast and 10 days later meet Brisbane at Suncorp in the last match of round 21.
Central Coast, who finished 2-2 with Brisbane Roar on Friday, have lost only two of 19 games this season but have been well-tested by the Phoenix.
In round six the Mariners won 1-0 at Westpac Stadium and six weeks later returned to the capital for a 1-1 draw.
Until that draw just before Christmas, the Phoenix had lost six in a row to the Coasters, including four at home.
They will find it hard on their first trip to Gosford this season where they will again be pitted against in-form All Whites midfielder Michael McGlinchey, who put his side ahead early in the game against Brisbane.
The hosts, with two second-half Besart Berisha goals, led until the 81st minute when golden boot leader Daniel McBreen thumped home the equaliser and his 14th goal of the season.
He is three ahead of All Whites Jeremy Brockie and Marco Rojas.
Herbert still needs more from his Phoenix strikers if they are to claw their way into play-off contention.
At barely a goal a game in scoring 22, only bottom-placed Perth, with 18, have found the opposing net on fewer occasions.
In the only all-top-four meeting of round 20, Adelaide United, who have lost their mojo as well as coach John Kosmina, entertain the Victory on Friday night.
The Victory won the round three clash 2-1 at home with Adelaide, also at home, winning 4-2 seven rounds later.
The Sunday fixture between Sydney FC and Brisbane Roar to be played at Allianz Stadium promises plenty.
Both teams are on 21 points with the Queenslanders comfortably ahead on goal difference.

The first big change after releasing 0.6 was to move from svn to git. SourceForge offers git since a while, but does not provide any tips how to do the transition. Fortunately it is a popular topic though. I used svn2git for the main conversion. I fixed the author tags from svn commit messages (Patch-by:) manually using git rebase -i as I could not get a filter-branch script for it to work. A few times gitk got confused and I had to remove my .git/gitk.cache, one symptom are missing tags. I updated the enlistments on ohloh and tweaked the git hooks to have the same functionality as before.
A first code wise change was to move the bsl module into the buzztard one. It is a small module for the buzztard song-loader plugin and it is not needed if you don't want to load buzz songs. But it is small and has no further dependencies and thus it is easier to just include it. Especially as we plan to add other loaders in the coming cycle(s).
In the editor I bumped the required gtk version to get rid of some #ifdef and be able to use newer API. I replaced the ruler widgets in volume and panorama popups with with scale markers. Those look nicer and take the scale handle size into account. Unfortunately they were almost untested. I made the needed patches for gtk-2-24, gtk-3-2 and gtk-HEAD [1],[2]. I could also made workarounds for the issue for the time being. So for the time being, don't use inverted ranges on your scales and don't use an adjustment with fractions (use 0 .. 100 instead of 0.0 to 1.0).
Most of the work went in the the interaction controller. The controller assignment in the UI is a bit more discoverable (content menu not only on main widgets, but also on the label and value label). Controllers can be assigned to combo-boxes too (mapped to enums). We have controllers for note-on midi messages and the velocity that comes with it now.
The other bigger change is that we now have persistent audio sessions (right now only enabled for jack). We're basically keep the sink alive across songs and also keep it in a resource allocated state. This gives a little speedup on the playback startup, but the main motivation was to allow to configure linkage of buzztard with other jack client in qjackcontrol. This is also an enabler for transport sync support. I have landed initial support for this in gstreamer-git.
There were also a few smaller changes for user feedback on docs and new tips. The design folder got more experiments.

"Some kids like veggies and some don't"—how many moms have said this when describing their picky eater's preferences? Researchers are discovering that perhaps veggie consumption isn't just a case of the veggie-lovers versus the veggie-haters, however, but more a case of nutrition education.
We can all agree that kids are like sponges; they absorb virtually everything that comes their way and they are avid learners. Researchers at Stanford University set out to see if they could encourage kids to eat more veggies by teaching them about the health benefits of doing so, rather than offering ultimatums (no dessert until you've eaten your peas!).
Their study, conducted over a three-month period and published in Psychological Science, took kids' natural curiosity as a starting point and covered nutritional information in five storybooks aimed at preschoolers. The books tackled seemingly lofty topics such as:
- Food categories
- The importance of dietary variety
- Nutrients as bodily fuel
- Digestion and its functions
- The role of microscopic nutrients in health
Of course these topics were presented in an accessible and entertaining manner for preschoolers, but the focus was still on education. The hypothesis was that by learning more about why they should eat their veggies and what these foods did for their bodies, preschoolers would want to naturally make more veggie choices as their snacks. The focus of the research was on choice and helping to encourage children to make these healthy decisions. During snack time, one group of preschoolers read about nutrition in their storybooks while the control group carried on with snack time as usual….
And the results? The children actively learning about nutrition displayed an impressive understanding of the subject and more than doubled their snack time veggie intake by choice. The control group's veggie intake remained about the same but the kids learning the why behind their choices saw a dramatic increase in veggie consumption during the study.
Researchers want to find out what this type of conceptual teaching does for kids' veggie intake over the long-term, but the initial results are certainly promising for moms everywhere!

|The Quintessential Trout Trout angling is the core of flyfishing worldwide.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I hope to go to Patgonia again, and if I do, I will spend more time and most if not all in Chile. I have heard that the fishing on the Rio Baker is excellent. So many places to fish...
Luis -
If I counted the times I read your journal and thought of being in Patagonia! For those who have not read it, CLICK HERE to read the Patagonia Journal.
Now to get a scan of Tierra Del Fuego trout from Eddie...
Those can be good waters but the rivers and waters near San Martin de los Andes are the beaten path of Patagonia. The whole area is more developed than further south.
If you ever have the chance to go again visit Los Alerces in Chubut province (you should have a contact with a boat, though). There's no comparison and you'll be walking along 2000 year old trees in some areas that will make you feel very small.
Fish the Rivadavia, Menendez and Futalaufquen Rivers. Fish Lago Verde, Futalaufquen, and Menendez lakes (the latter on a windless day), and you will be amazed.
Have a barbecue on the shores of Lago Cholila and drnk some wonderful Malbecs and cabernets (my cabin fever is a a maximum right now)
TDF is not a beautiful place, but I think that Kau Tappen is worth every penny.Other guests who are more fortunate than me rattled off a list of equals(Ponoi, Silver Hilton etc.)that leads me to believe that it is among the best.
It was the fishing in the north that I was a little disapointed with. We fished the Majeo,Traful, and a few others. As far as cost, I can't think of a place in the States that costs as much(eg.Elk Trout) but I can think of a bunch of free spots that are equevelant. You wouldn't drive five hours to get to any of them. Like I said, I would stick to the public waters.
I will say that no one else seemed to mind. To each his own. The wine and BBQ. is world class down there. Maybe I just don't like fishing for trout with guides.
Any way, I had the time of my life, and loved every second.
Enjoyed your post about Patagonia. Where did you fish aside from TDF? I was there in November of '99 and fished mostly the national park waters of Los Alerces. We had a boat and fished the chain of lakes and connecting rivers. Now, I've been to the rockies in Canada, but that has to be the one of the prettiest places on earth. In my view the beauty of the Andes beats TDF hands down. I know the lure of the big browns, but... I think a healthy mix of natural beauty and nice fish (16 - 22" or more) is more up my alley. You mention that prices are real high... you bet! The argie peso has been tagged to the U.S. dollar for 7 or 8 years. Additionally, you stayed at a lodge considered to be "la creme de la creme" of fly fishing lodges at a top destination.
Gotta pay top dollar for that.
Did you have a chance to go to Santa Cruz for steelhead? March and April are the months for that.

Welcome back... those tierra del fuego trout sound AMAZING. It sounds like a trip of a lifetime to get trout that big ripping surface wakes and getting into fish topping 20 pounds. You knew I was going to ask... pIcTurEs????
|That was a very interesting report... about a place I know little about, The Patagonia observation was a real surprise to me after all I heard and read... nothing like first hand experience.
trout in Argentina
I just got back from two and a half weeks fishing in Argentina. One week was in Tierra Del Fuego and the other was in Patagonia.
The fishing was incredible on the Rio Grand in Tierra Del Fuego. When the wind was blowing under 20, we were able to fish with floating lines and skate drys and swing small nymphs. As the wind picked up, sink tips were the call, and when the wind was blowing a steady 50, a 200 gr head was the only way I could get off a cast. I fished as light as an 11.5' #6, and up to a 12' #8 2hander. Flies that worked were #12 prince nymphs, #10 green machines, #8 rubber leg Brindle Bugs, and #6 Bitch Creeks. The biggest trout of the week was 23#'s and my best was a 21# male. It got to the point that we were shaking off 3# fish. Anyone who is lucky enough to go should look into fishing Frontiers Kau Tappen Lodge. All of the others had their sports dredging with 400gr.heads, fishing the same pools as us. We didn't catch all our fish on the surface, but some of the more memorable fish would erupt out of the waster, exploding on a little bug skimming across the river.
Fishing in Patagonia was a little bit of a let down after that. I always thought that I could cherish each fish for it's own challenge and contribution to my life, but no...I am ruined. We had nothing but dissdain for the puny 16"-20" trout that we were catching. Well...lets say that it took a day or two to adjust.The water in patagonia is beatiful. The landscape reminds me of the Rockies, the prices remind me of Monaco. This is far and away the most expensive fishing destination that I can think off. This fact made the mediocre fishing not as fun as it could have been. The private water is so slammed by fishermen, that I am convinced the fishing is better on the public waters. In some cases it has to be. Unfortunatly I think that many of the estancia owners are getting a little greedy. If I went again, I would rent a car and fish the public waters around st.Martin. Still, fishing is better than the alternative.

Drum Roll Please!!............
It is Official! The 2011 T&TH Forums Spring Hunt Contest is over...finally...
....And the Winning Team is..................
Team #5....Limbhangers
Congratulations to the Limbhangers on their collective outstanding 2011 Season!
Six of their eight hunters took at least one gobbler!
Bragging rights are theirs for the next year!
As the administrator for the first ever T&TH Forums contest, I would like to thank all of the members here who joined in the contest and participated in the fun! Hopefully, it helped make everybody's spring season a bit more enjoyable.
Assuming we all want to do this again in the future, now is the time to discuss the contest and the "shortcomings" of the way the contest was set up and what we can do to make it better next time. Let it be known, here and now, that the current administrator is willing to step down from his position and let someone else run the contest, if they so desire. If not, I am willing, with the help of all of you that kept me straightened out this time, to try to run it again next year.
Thanks to everyone for keeping the contest in the spirit in which it was intended! What a fine bunch of folks we have here! It is a pleasure to be on this forum with all of you!

All this negativity. Why doesn't the mainstream media report the positive news? It is the holiday season for crying out loud.
You know, like "49 governors, 100 U.S. Senators, and 435 U.S. Representatives not arrested today". Now that is news to report.
Although, some like Idaho Senator Craig were also in the news today....http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2008...room-sex-case/
We are known by the friends we keep Buzz. BHO's new chief of staff comes from a long association with Blago and friends. There will and should be questions. Since you are not from Illinois allow me to introduce you to a term you should become familar with "Chicago Machine". Just wait. As for him being responsible for the arrest--please.

OK mister Obama, what did you know and when did you know it?
I am sure this is the first of many reports like this over the next four years.

Stretch marks
What is the best way to prevent stretch marks? I noticed on my sister's belly that she does have a lot of stretch marks after she gave birth. I'd like to know how can I avoid having those marks on my belly after giving birth, since I'm planning to get pregnant soon? Are there better practices that can be applied, or some remedies that can help with that?
6th July 2012 10:35 AM #2
One of the best ways to prevent stretch marks is to rub oil into the skin as soon as you start to notice your belly growing. I did this with my first baby and didn't have a single stretch mark.
Something else that can help skin to have good elasticity is avoid foods with refined sugar, increase your dark green leafy vegetable intake (like Romaine Lettuce, Chard, Collard Greens, Kale, Spinach, Beet Greens, etc.) and increase your antioxidant intake. Blueberries are high in antioxidants, as are red grapes.
A healthy diet will go a long way towards keeping you and your baby healthy during pregnancy.

Great advice Kate!
I rub almond oil into my bump each morning after my shower. This worked really well with my first baby as I am lucky to not have any stretch marks! However, everyone is different and some women are more susceptible to them. Also, stretch marks do tend to fade with time.
11th July 2012 12:26 PM #5
Rubbing oil on the skin is so good for so many things Coconut oil is another really good oil for the skin. Can also be used on dry skin, on the elbows, hands and ankles. But usually dry skin is an indication that the body is lacking in Essential Fatty Acids, so flax oil can be helpful with this during pregnancy.
Warm regards,
15th July 2012 04:28 AM #6
Just wanted to say that I am a big believer in using oil rubs to prevent stretch marks. I use almond or Vitamin E oil during pregnancy and I have managed to have four babies and no stretch marks. =)

There are many ways to prevent stretch mark during and after pregnancy. The basic idea is to moisturize your skin so that it remains well-hydrated. Drink lots of water to keep yourself hydrated. You can also consume anti-oxidant rich black, white or green tea. During pregnancy, massage regularly your whole body with aroma oil before taking bath. This reduces the chances of getting stretch marks after pregnancy.

Joan Jett: Jett Set
GW There's basically an orgasm in the middle of the song.
JETT Exactly. And kids wanna do that. That's why teenage boys form bands. And girls, they feel those same things. To deny that is really kind of fucked up. And it's fucked up for teenagers who aren't given a voice. So all we were trying to do in the Runaways was sort of give voice to that. We just happened to stumble into it very naïvely, not really knowing what we were getting into and not knowing it was going to be so threatening to people. But as we began to realize that it was threatening, all of a sudden it became the principle.
GW That sense of threat extended to your peers as well. In the movie, during soundcheck before a show, the Runaways are given a rough time by the bigger, male, headlining act. That incident supposedly occurred during your tour with Rush in 1977.
JETT Yeah, that's true. But I'm not even so sure it was the members of Rush that were giving us crap as much as it was their road crew. They would be standing on the side of the stage, laughing during the show, throwing paper and wads of stuff at us. And I remember Cherie walking onstage and slipping, because we were all in platforms. Stuff like that. So it was like, people were threatened, but they were very juvenile in the way they took it out on us.
GW Afterward, your character breaks into the band's dressing room and urinates on a guitar. Did you really do that?
JETT No, no, no. That whole scene, going into the dressing room, that was a complete embellishment for the movie. The Runaways never wrecked any other band's gear. That would not be the way I would handle things. The way for me to get back at somebody has always been to blow them away onstage.
GW For the live scenes in the movie did you offer Kristen Stewart any advice as far as how to portray Joan Jett?
JETT One thing I made sure of was when she held the guitar that the pickup was right over her crotch. But basically, when I'm onstage I try not to think. As soon as you start thinking, you screw up. You have to just be in the music, because it's really easy to get spooked. So with Kristen, if she was onstage and maybe not feeling it, or I could tell she was thinking about too many things, or worried about the camera or whatever, I would yell at her, "Kristen! Pussy to the wood! Fuck your guitar!" [laughs] Because you have to stay connected to it, you know?
GW With male players, there's the cliché about the guitar being an extension of your manhood.
JETT Exactly. And I think that's true for everybody. You want to expand. You don't want to shrivel up!
GW After the Runaways broke up, was there ever a moment where you weren't sure if you would continue in music?
JETT Oh, totally. I was devastated when the Runaways broke up, for a million reasons—my dream was over, I felt we had failed, I thought maybe it was all my fault. And I just felt really laughed at. It was like you could sense all of Los Angeles going, "We told you it wouldn't work. Ha-ha." And I was probably drinking too much, partying too much, kind of spiraling downward. So I definitely thought about other avenues. I even briefly considered enlisting in the military. I figured it'd help me get myself together, I'd get to travel some, maybe get some discipline.
GW Once you made the decision to continue as a solo artist, you were turned down by more than 20 record labels.
JETT Kenny [Laguna, Jett's longtime producer/business partner] knew a lot of people, and he figured he could get me a deal quick, no problem. But everybody he went to said, "Can't help you, Ken, can't do it." And they all gave various excuses that he thought were ridiculous.
GW Such as?
JETT "She can't play." "She can't sing." "She's too intense." "Maybe she should lose the guitar." I'm sure there's probably a few others that Kenny never even relayed to me because he thought it'd hurt my feelings. But we still have a lot of those rejection letters.

The "right decision"to a retriever is generally that decision which feels good or is the most convenient.So its the trainers job to teach the dog that what feels good is that which pleases the trainer.

I never used to put my hand down on marks.
I always did on blinds.
I have been taught a routine now dropping my hand on the go bird when running marking set ups.
Its more used as a steadying tool.
I will say, I have witnessed older ,,experienced dogs ,,,who may on their blinds ,Look away from the destination point the handler wants. The experienced handler will command "Here" with the hand over the head, and the dog will immediatly look to that point.
With young dogs(Like mine) I have been chewed out for messin with her at the line trying to "Line" her.. Maybe command "here" or "heel" ONCE,, then if you dont get what you want,, I am told Kick the dog off and handle.. I have noticed very subtle improvements on her leaving the line with a good initial line now,Very slow improvements though.
I was always taught by those much more knowledgeablethen my self it's all about the eyes where the dog is going. Spine can be correct, head can be correct, eyes someplace else. I try look over the dogs head to see the eyes or watch the eyebrows, when they are in sinc, hand over the head for the release. That's all the hand is, the release. Waving the hand side to side, hand up and down, pushing with a forward motion is useless in training! At a field trial or hunt test
Sometimes a slight tap on the knee, a here or heel for push pull, a step up or back, a slight tap on the knee put the hand out in front, whatever it takes, with watch the eyes. Competition handling is different then training handling, if you go in a training mode at a trial , well it might be a ticket home. Perfect world in training with good habits, whatever it takes to win or survive at a trial within the rules or guidelines of the event.

There is a fine line between "helping" a dog and teaching (albeit indirectly) a dog not to trust its own innate abilities
Part of being a good marking dog is having confidence in your abilities
Help a dog too much, and you teach a dog not to trust itself
Don't help a dog and maybe you are driving home instead of playing on
I have helped when I shouldn't have and I have not helped when I should have (and done both late in Nationals)
No hard and fast rules here
Competition does not build character - It reveals it.

I enjoyed a Pat Burns seminar where he presented his thoughts on advanced, multiple layer wagon wheel drills for refining pup's initial lines and getting adjustments to that line. Pup at heel where you can look down and see the eyes. Use body and leg "english" to get the proper alignment. When pup is really tuned the hand position can be used to make very fine adjustments. Hand slightly in front of dog will tend to push him slightly to the left. Hand behind will tend to pull him to the right. I'm not there yet but getting better with the dog's position and watching the eyes and eyebrows to make sure he's seeing what I'm hoping he sees.
Now, if I could just do that at a trial . . .
The leg closest to the dog, has the most influence. So, if I need a "big" shift, that's the leg that I move.
Over time, a dog becomes more and more comfortable with small changes.
But, a young dog isn't at that point yet. You can't be too picky, or they just get nervous and uptight.
I almost always get very good ILs and I don't drop my hand in until their is a focus and commitment in their eyes.
That said, how is it I hear some folks can teach their dog to follow a gun barrel but it's not possible to influence their line with your hand???
Dont wave your phony patriotism in MY face! If you really love America, open your wallet and hire an American kid to build what you buy. Doug Fraser (paraphrased) 1980
Real Americans buy American.
I always put my hand down for releaseing on a mark. That is so she knows not to go until my hand comes down over he head, not on the side. On a blind I use my hand on the side of her head for direction. The hand is not put down until she is in a good postion. I use heel if I need to swing her but in in and here to pull head over if needed and tape my leg for lineing if needed.

Sooo, I want to post to my diary by email. If you read this, the program is working. :)
Update. Oh, of course you want to see the code! There it is, in all its unpolished glory. Note that about 90% of it is concerned with working around bugs in the crappy email parser. ;-/
