Your summer dinners are starting to drag. Don't worry; you aren't alone. It's easy to get into a rut preparing the same meals over and over again.But it's just as easy to snap out of it and start a culinary revolution by twisting something old into something new. Just put a spin on your favorite recipes by doing the summertime twist.An updated version of the tried and true All-American cheeseburger and Baked Sweet Potato Fries will keep your Labor Day cookout guests on their toes.
Your nerves are shot.After spending endless hours pushing a shopping cart through every store in three counties for weeks, you found the perfect Hannah Montana or Kasey Kahne lunch box.Now, all that's left to do is find something to put in it that will give your little Disney Channel wannabe or NASCAR novice enough brain power to make it through the day.And you thought finding that lunch box was hard.Try finding the suggested good-for-you protein, vegetable, fruit and a fun treat combination you can pack each day that they will eat.
August lends itself to eating lighter meals to get through sweltering summer days. But eating light doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. You may even want to move the cooking outside for these sizzling, grilled Smell Good Chicken Sandwiches. As soon as your neighbors whiff the aroma drifting from your yard to theirs, they're going to understand where the name comes from.
Cooking is an inexpensive culinary adventure to an exotic excursion. It gives you a chance to savor the delectable cuisine of some faraway place from the comfort of your own kitchen. Plus, there is very little hassle and no travel expenses.
With the price of gasoline going up almost daily, many families are looking for ways to save a little money, including packing a brown bag from home instead of eating at a restaurant or opting for fast food.
Light the grill; Independence Day is here.While hot dogs, hamburger patties and barbecue chicken take center stage in the backyard on Friday, nothing adds spice to a star-spangled July 4 feast like all-American side dishes.The great thing about side dishes is you can mix and match them, depending on what your tastes are.From baked beans and coleslaw to potato salad and fresh-shucked corn, the combinations are endless.Nothing is better than topping it with homemade ice cream and a patriotic sweet treat or two, including an ice cold watermelon.
If you want some of the freshest produce around, you'll find it at a local farmer's market.The reasoning is simple. There is no "jet lag" involved. While most of the produce that hits the supermarket shelves is trucked in, local produce has traveled less than a day to get to market, making it as garden fresh as possible.
Grill enthusiasts who depend on barbecue sauces and marinades to awaken meats may be missing the boat.Nothing can add character and a kick to beef and pork like a good rub.A rub is simple, dry powder usually made of spices, salts and sugars that's applied to meat before it's grilled.It not only boosts the flavor, but also forms a tasty crust by clinging to the meat.According to the Web site www.fiery–foods.com, rubs work well because they "open up" the meat.
The culinary arts classes at Lancaster High School are taught in such a way that students can take it to the next level if they want to.
By now, some of you are still running around trying to find the perfect Mother's Day gift. Finding something that's fresh, foolproof and made with love may be closer than you think.
It's not in the shopping mall; it's cupcakes made fresh from the kitchen cabinet.
We're talking flour, sugar, baking soda and butter, blended with the love that every mother appreciates.

Caló Gospel of Luke 1837
In 1836 the Gospel of Luke was translated into Caló (Iberian Romani) by BFBS agent, George Borrow (1803-1881) with the help of Gypsies in Spain and Portugal. It was printed by the British and Foreign Bible Society in 1837.
Caló is the form of Romani spoken by Gitano Gypsies in Iberia (Spain and Portugal) and communities descended from them in Brazil. This was the first book of the Bible ever translated into any Romani language, and the first book ever published in any Romani language. This gospel was digitised frorm an original copy at the British and Foreign Bible Society (BFBS) library with the help of MissionAssist. It was placed online for the United Bible Societies (UBS) Romani Affinity Group digitisation project.

Photo By Patrick Cavan Brown, May 2012, "Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em." (top)
I love this photo because it captures a wagon doing the complete opposite of what comes to mind when someone says the words "Station Wagon."
Photography by Darren Heath, January 2012, "What's hiding in McLaren's Shed."
An insightful look into the McLaren's storage vault. The image takes my mind on a rollercoaster of thoughts wondering what is in each corner, what it was used for, and what influence each piece had on the company and industry.
Photography by Jonathan David, August 2012, "Datsun Rising"
This was one of many great photos from the shoot. I was sad that the editors felt it needed to be removed from print, but we did include it in the iPad version. This photo captures how great it is to work with Ezra. It illustrates his personality and energy perfectly all in great composition.
Photography by Jonathan David, October 2012, "Respect your Elders"
Just picture postcard perfect! Reminds me why I love the roads in Tennessee.
Photography by Brian Konoske, September 2012, "Postmodern Porsche"
Brian is great with documentaries, which makes it difficult when you are restricted to a certain amount of space in the magazine. So many great photos to choose from, which is why we published extras on the iPad. Love the lighting/glare and the natural habitat of this fine car, the open road.
Photography by A.J. Mueller, December 2012, "Four-Seasons Wrap"
One of the many reasons I love working with A.J is his attitude. I throw an idea at him, and ask, "Can we do it? More importantly can you do it?" His response is always a resounding and enthusiastic, "#$!%Yeah! Lets Go!"
Photography by A.J. Mueller, January 2012, "Automobile of the Year"
A stunningly composed photo through and through. Every time I see it I notice another detail, right down to the motion in the grass blades as they wave in the summer breeze.
Photography by A.J. Mueller, August 2012, "200MPH for the Masses"
Visual icons resound in many ways. From the cars to the ice cream stand, the color, contrast, and positioning make this one of those photos you want to just walk right into. Hold my cone, while I take a lap around the block!
Photography by A.J. Mueller, May 2012, "Top Down, Up North."
An incredible photo that shows the essence of the Sno*drift event and culture. The trees towering above a spectrum of light as the cars race mere feet from bystanders.
Photography by Greg Pajo, August 2012, "Roadster Roundup."
Those fields seem to have a roadster infestation! Sometimes after pushing the limits of test cars all day, they need to rest. Even on the shaded side of the cars, they are lit beautifully in this Zen-like environment.
Photography By Andrew Trahan, September 2012, "1954 Kaiser Darrin – Collectible Classic"
So much style, texture, and history in one single photo.
Photography by Andrew Yeadon, November 2012, "Following the Weston Star"
Give this man enough cigarettes, Starbucks coffee, talk the whole image out, and Andrew Yeadon will amaze you. This was one of his "Trust me on this, mate" ideas. Original and creative, and he traced the steps of one of his favorite photographers.

Homologated tyres are those that have been approved directly via a manufacturer. These tyres are ones that have met the standards and regulatory requirements of the manufacturer.
The energy lost when a tyre is in motion is known as 'rolling resistance'. This has a direct impact on fuel consumption.
A tyre's rolling resistance score ranges from A to G. Over the life of the tyre, fitting an A rated tyre could save you up to 6 litres of fuel when compared to a G rated tyre.
A tyre's wet grip capacity is expressed in Grades from A to G.
The difference in braking distances between each grade is roughly 3m - an average car length. This makes average stopping distance between an A and G rated tyre 18m. That's 4 car lengths.
The exterior noise grade of a tyre is expressed in decibels - accompanied by one, two or three sound waves, with one wave being the best noise level performance.
To achieve the best grade, a tyre's noise level must be at least 3dB under the legal limit set by the EU.
The CrossClimate+ has been designed to offer great performance in every weather condition. In summer, it brakes on dry roads like a summer tyre, but also provides excellent grip on wet roads and has been approved for use in snow.
What's behind it?
Innovative compound: The grip-maximizing compound provides flexibility to enable indentation in the ground, whatever the temperature.
Tread blocks: The rigid and bevel-edged tread blocks improve dry braking performance.
Tread pattern: The unique V-shaped tread pattern maximizes the clawing effect on snow, and the high rigidity of the tread pattern optimizes the longevity performance.
High-Performing sipes: The 3D sipes are full-depth for long-lasting mobility on snow and self-locking for effective dry grip. As the tyre wears, emerging grooves open to deliver long-lasting traction on snowy roads.

JERUSALEM, March 22 (UPI) -- Sandstorms moving from Egypt to Israel polluted the air Friday, reduced visibility for drivers and forced U.S. President Barack Obama to change his schedule.
Obama, who had planned to travel by helicopter to Bethlehem on the West Bank, made the trip by motorcade instead, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported. As a result, he arrived in Amman, Jordan, his next stop, an hour late.
The Egyptian Meteorological Authority urged drivers to stay off the roads and fishermen to stay in port because of low visibility, Ahram Online reported. High winds, in addition to blowing sand, kicked up 10-foot waves in the Red Sea.
Four Red Sea ports were closed because of the storm.
In Israel, the Ashkelon National Park was closed by the storm, Haaretz said. The Environmental Protection Ministry advised pregnant women, the elderly, children and people with respiratory diseases to remain indoors.
Obama's transport problems caused inconvenience for others. The highway between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv was closed for a time to allow the presidential motorcade to get to Ben Gurion International Airport unimpeded.

Bills newly introduced in the Vermont House and Senate would decriminalize marijuana.
The bills would make penalties for possessing small amounts similar to a traffic ticket.
Thirty-nine House co-sponsors, led by Progressive Chris Pearson of Burlington, are backing a bill that would decriminalize possession of up to two ounces, two mature plants and seven immature plants.
The Senate version, on which Senate Minority Leader Joe Benning is leading eight co-sponsors, would decriminalize possession of up to an ounce of marijuana.
House Speaker Shap Smith says he has misgivings about marijuana decriminalization. But he says he won't block a bill from being debated by the full House if it is approved by the Judiciary Committee.

The End of Strategy '08 and the Beginning of Something Else (Soon)
So…the election season has come to a close and the rationale for this site isn't quite the same as it once was, so we're going to close it down (or, more to the point, let it linger)
Our blogging days aren't over by a long-shot, but we're going to take some time to think about how to be productive as bloggers in the days to come now that we're operating in a different political environment.
Thank you everyone who contributed, e-mailed, commented, posted, etc. And stay tune for a new announcement soon about our next endeavor…
We Can Question Obama AND Give Him a Chance
Here's where I come down on this debate that the netroots seems to be embroiled in ("Give Him a Chance" vs. "We Can Question"). Let's play a game first and then I'll illustrate my point.
Imagine a world in which an in-coming Democratic President won a strong majority of the country's votes in an electoral landslide.
Imagine that President planned to confront an economic crisis by launching a massive, jobs-producing, infrastructure investment program via DIRECT government spending.
Imagine that President planned to spend billions in building wind, solar, and alternative energy, and building out the crucial electrical grid.

NBC: John Brennan OUT as Intelligence Director
As reported on NBC, John Brennan has taken himself out of any consideration for a position in Pres-Elect Obama's cabinet.
John Brennan, President-elect Barack Obama's top adviser on intelligence, has taken his name out of the running for any intelligence position in the new administration.
In a letter Tuesday, Brennan wrote letter to Obama that he did not want to be a distraction. His potential appointment has raised a firestorm in liberal blogs who associate him with the Bush administration's interrogation, detention and rendition policies.
"The fact that I was not involved in the decision making process for any of these controversial policies and actions has been ignored," he wrote, in a letter obtained by The Associated Press.
This is obviously great news, I would say that the criticism from the left played an instrumental role in preventing Brennan from having any position in an Obama administration. Brennan's position on torture is somewhat, well, tortured. He has come under quite a bit of scrutiny of course, given some of his statements on torture. His position on the issue isn't really clear (except the fact that he hasn't really taken a position), but the fact that he leaves himself open for question on the issue was of course a major problem. Unequivocal opposition of torture should be a prerequisite for any intelligence director, or any position in Intelligence or Justice for that matter.
David Sirota – Really? How Did This Guy Make It This Far?
David Sirota has built his own personal celebrity in recent months – getting more column work, raising his visibility as a blogger, and appearing as a contributor on such broadcasts as the Rachel Maddow Show. It is with gleeful irony that I found his latest, perhaps worst and most intellectually dishonest and insulting piece of work, "Obama Ate the Left, And We Shouldn't Blame Him At All. But What Do We Do Now?"
If anyone took him seriously before this mind-numbing rant, then please, be convinced – as I have been for a long time – that he is not someone with the intellectual heft, let alone the maturity, to be considered a legitimate analyst. Yes, tough words, but I have had enough encounters with him on DailyKos and read enough of his junk to last a lifetime.
Overlooked News: Vilsack Will NOT Be Agriculture Secretary
In a small piece of overlooked news, I'm happy to report that Tom Vilsack will not be named Secretary of Agriculture:
Former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack today said that he won't be the next agriculture secretary, ending speculation that an Iowan would snag the post important to a large swath of the state's economy.
In an e-mail, Vilsack said he had never been contacted by aides to President-elect Barack Obama about that position or any other.
Why do I see this as good news? No disrespect to Gov. Vilsack, who I'm sure is a capable guy, but his views are too inexorably tied to his state and its central role in our food system. Indeed, he's been one of the earliest and biggest pushers of corn-based ethanol as a solution to our energy crisis.
Now, to be fair, this is not Obama's strongest issue as he too hails from a midwest, corn-producing state.
But, in an ideal world, the agriculture secretary will be someone who will start to wean us off this corn-based, centrally-managed food system (which, by the way, is highly vulnerable to disruption and attack) and instead move us to a more regional system.
I Love Rachel Maddow, But…
Rachel Maddow is an immensely talented, entertaining, informative and intelligent voice on television, something sorely needed. I am thrilled her show is so successful and look forward to watching her for a long time.
But having said that, I've noticed that she can be somewhat of a (and I mean this with love) concern troll when it comes to Barack Obama, and has been for some time. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think any media figure should roll over for this guy. But the problem is, her analysis has been wrong repeatedly.
She was the lone voice saying over and over during the last couple weeks of the election that Obama didn't have it in the bag or anywhere close to it, and that all early voting stats were BAD news for Obama (turned out to be just the opposite).
Yesterday, she expressed concern about how "un-changey" Obama's administration-in-waiting has been, what with all the appointments of previous Clinton officials. Unfortunately, her analysis failed to separate "Clintonites" from highly qualified Democrats with experience who happen to have served the Clinton administration in some capacity. For example, she grouped in Eric Holder into the "un-changey" group of former Clintonites, but as Al Giordano has explained so well, he is anything but a Clintonite.
Look, I love me some Rachel Maddow. She should be skeptical and critical of Obama. But someone with her level of intelligence and analytical skills should also be able to be a little more…well…analytical with her "concern." Segments like yesterday were a bit too simplistic and reactive for my taste.
I know, I know, many of you will say I should expect media figures to bow down before Obama and I'm just part of the cult, yada yada. Not at all. But when showing worry and concern continues to be different from the facts, that's where problems arise.

The Great Lieberman Temper Tantrum of 2008
Let me make one thing clear: I hate Joe Lieberman as much as, if not more, than the next guy. I hate his fake sanctimonious, concern-troll tone as he went against everything he stood for his whole life and campaigned against Barack Obama. And while I understand why Obama sent the lifeline he did to Lieberman, I don't like that Joe made it out of yesterday with a slap on the wrist. I also don't like that he was removed from the environmental committee – the one issue he was pretty good at – but retained the Homeland Security committee (of course, my solution to this is to get rid of the Homeland Security department all together).
Having said all that, and understanding and being a part of the anger so many of us shared, yesterday was perhaps the most embarrassing day to be a member of the liberal blogosphere that I can remember. It was the Great Lieberman Temper Tantrum of 2008.
My Alma Mater Rejected Obama
Apparently it's true: Swarthmore College, my alma mater, rejected Obama:
The admissions office may have to keep mum, but senior Joel Mittleman '09 actually had the chance to personally confirm the rumor when Obama held an open town hall at Strath Haven High School during the Pennsylvania primaries. "I did ask Obama [whether it was true]," he says, "not during the actual question and answer, but as he was walking the line shaking hands afterwards." Mittleman recalls the Senator laughing in response, asking him where he heard the information, and then saying "Yes, it's true. It really broke my heart, actually."
Alum Anne Kolker '08, a former intern in the Senate office and Mittleman's original source of the rumor, further confirmed the story: "Yes, the first thing President-elect Obama said to me was "Ah, Swarthmore, great school. They rejected me." Thankfully, Kolker reports Obama held no grudge against her. Here's hoping admissions doesn't write off any other presidential hopefuls.
Too bad, would have made our reunion weekends more interesting.

Would you be satisfied with turning them off?
As has been pointed out be several others, these "headings" are highly inconsistent even for a single translation. My personal opinion is that they have no place in textual study. Perhaps we could have a module with all the headings ever devised?
Seriously, I would object to these being inserted into the text. They belong in notes and commentary, not in the text.

I try to be very careful about what I put in my body. Sometimes, I am not so careful about what I use on the surface of my skin. I started doing my research on foundations and make-up that are fairly popular. I could not believe all the stuff that they put in the products. That is when my search for a "healthy" foundation began. I found Root through a friend who raved about the mineral foundation. I did my research and loved every detail about the product… including the price!
Root is a new company that offers mineral make-up that is actually good for our skin. There are absolutely NO fillers and chemicals- just four simple ingredients! I was so happy to try Root's pearl mineral foundation, bronzer, and setting silk. I was blown away by the texture of the minerals. They were so fine and literally glided on my face. The setting silk felt just like… silk!
I tried three different foundations (shade 1, 3, and 6) and landed on the formula 3 foundation along with the light bronzer. I wore the product every day for a week and felt like it held up all day long, too. There were a couple of days that I threw on a quick layer of the setting silk just to make me feel better, but honestly, I probably didn't need it. I am just so used to having to re-apply my powder, that it was habit for me to do so. I do want to add that I have quite a bit of redness and scarring from acne on my chin and cheeks, so for a powder foundation to conceal all that is pretty good (these are raw images- no editing was done)!
I am so happy to share such a great product with our readers. I feel like the product, coupled with the amazing price, is hard to beat!

Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak today said he was apportioning a measure of power to his vice president, Omar Suleiman, in his latest attempt to quell weeks of demands for his resignation from protesters and growing pressure from Western governments. But debate is swirling over exactly how much authority he is ceding to his vice president.
Mr. Mubarak proclaimed in a TV address – in which many had expected him to announce his resignation – that he was staying at the helm until elections in September and would "not accept or listen to any foreign interventions or dictations."
Many among the crowds at central Cairo's Tahrir Square were skeptical of any regime effort to mollify protesters without delivering real change in the form of Mubarak stepping down.
"I think they're just playing for time, and I'm worried that they're setting the stage for the military to suddenly strike at us," says Mohammed Hawas, a businessman who ran for president in 2005 and seeks to run again in September elections. "None of us should go home before the regime is swept away."
While reports had swirled ahead of the speech that Mr. Suleiman would be taking Mubarak's place to lead the country through a political transition, the announcement tonight potentially sets Mubarak on a collision course with angry protesters.
"The stage is set for a tragedy," says US Army Col. (Ret.) W. Patrick Lang, a former senior official at the Defense Intelligence Agency who was based in the Middle East.
Mubarak sees himself 'as the state'
After Mubarak's speech, Egypt's ambassador to the US, Sameh Shoukry, told CNN that Mr. Suleiman was now the "de facto" president: "President Mubarak transferred the powers of his presidency to his vice president." He added that Mubarak was the "de jure" president only.
Pressed as to whether Mubarak now had no powers, Mr. Shoukry said: "That is an interpretation you can make."
Lang says there is no reason not to take the ambassador's statements at face value. "In the dim murky world of Egypt's culture and politics, what is sought here is a way for Mubarak to save face," he says. But, he adds, Mubarak has "thrown down the challenge to what is now a revolutionary movement."
Analysts say that Mubarak apparently has the backing of the popular Army and the respected Suleiman, whose Jan. 29 appointment as vice president was seen as a first step toward the end of Mubarak's rule. Now, that transition is in doubt, with Suleiman adding in a speech following Mubarak's that the protesters in Cairo's Tahrir Square should "go home."
"I call upon the young people, the heroes of Egypt: Go back to your houses, go back to your work," said Suleiman in a short televised address. "The homeland needs your work."
With those words, many hopes died that Suleiman might lead the country into elections.
"This negates whatever impact [Sulieman] might have had," says Mr. Lang, adding that this in itself is a loss for Egypt.
Who is Suleiman?
Born to a humble family in Qena on July 2, 1936, Suleiman attended Egypt's military academy, trained in the former Soviet Union, and studied political science at Cairo University and at Ain Shams University in Cairo. Before being appointed vice president, Suleiman had long held the posts of chief of the General Intelligence Service, director of military intelligence, and deputy head of military intelligence.
In 1995, Suleiman famously insisted that Mubarak's armored limousine be flown with them for a conference in Ethiopia, likely saving the president's life when their vehicle came under gunfire during an assassination attempt. Foreign Policy magazine in 2009 proclaimed him the most powerful spy in the Middle East.
"This is a guy that Mubarak took up on the basis of his supreme competence," says Lang, who first met Suleiman in 1987 while working as the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Officer for the Middle East and has maintained ties with him. He recalls their first meeting in Cairo, seated opposite one another at a palace conference and dining together every night.
"He is a very humorous guy. A dry, witty sort of person," says Lang. He describes Suleiman as considerate, willing to listen to subordinates, and the most capable man in the current government.
A man for all seasons
Over the years, the stress of working under President Mubarak has taken its toll.
"Working for Hosni Mubarak is the kind of job where you sit at a desk waiting for the red phone to ring," Lang says, noting that even Suleiman fears the president. "Off with your head is not an exaggeration," he adds.
"Mubarak is Pharaoh in his own mind. He's laughingly referred to as Pharaoh all over the Arab world. I don't think this guy [Suleiman] sees himself that way at all. I think he would see himself as public servant who would take the country toward elections," Lang says.
Lang argues that Suleiman would not have the stamina or the desire to become Egypt's next president. He adds, however, that Suleiman "is also not afraid to use force to put the country in order."
Having come from the military, like all Egyptian leaders since 1952, along with his tough stances on Hamas, Iran, and political Islamism, make him a popular choice with the armed forces in Egypt and the governments in Israel and US.
According to a US diplomatic cable dated May 14, 2007, titled "Presidential Succession in Egypt" and released in December by WikiLeaks, Suleiman was being groomed for succession:
"Egyptian intelligence chief and Mubarak consigliere, in past years Soliman was often cited as likely to be named to the long-vacant vice-presidential post. In the past two years, Soliman has stepped out of the shadows, and allowed himself to be photographed, and his meetings with foreign leaders reported. Many of our contacts believe that Soliman, because of his military background, would at least have to figure in any succession scenario."
But would Suleiman be good enough?
While Suleiman has no time for hobbies, according to Lang, he is a voracious reader, especially of the works of Ernest Hemingway. "He's probably read everything that Hemingway ever wrote," says Lang.
And now, with Mubarak increasingly under pressure to step down, eyes are looking to him as the man who will be tasked with keeping Egypt afloat amid a sea of public unrest and demands for political reforms.
But for tens of thousands of protesters in Tahrir Square, it's not just Mubarak who is the problem – it's his whole regime, including stalwarts like Suleiman.
"Yes, it's Mubarak, but it's the system, too," says Ahmed Dadr, a soft-spoken student who said he was exhausted from participating in street battles with the police. "Getting rid of Mubarak and keeping the system means the revolution hasn't succeeded."
Staff writer Dan Murphy contributed reporting from Cairo.

Father Merrin: There is only one.
The Exorcist 1973
For quite a bit I've been writing about a common thread that we see on the left
I wrote about the media's big lie concerning Hurricane Sandy
If George Bush was in office Ginny White would be on every TV network but this is the time of the Big Lie.
The Big Lie, it's all about not telling the truth or "speaking truth to power" but about pushing a meme and if some people are without blankets that's just the way it is.
Susan Rice and Benghazi:
Note that the death of four Americans is not the issue, the administration sending out a person before the election to deceive is not the issue, no it is the idea that two of the three Senators who have critiqued said person are white men (we'll ignore female Senator in the group) and she is a black woman and because she is a black woman the standards of truth and honesty do not apply here.
Israel & Hamas:
So in public Israel needs to show restraint, in private Hamas and their rocket firing friends are "some hooligans" than normal people would just go kill?
I object to the use of the term "Hooligans" it's not like they are a bunch of bikers dragging their murdered people behind them as they ride…oh wait:
Note that, not what is true, not what is right, what can be said.What can't be said is any critique of Islam, no matter how true.
Amnesty International:
Managing that change has led to problems – an indication of which emerged in 2009, when Amnesty handed over about 800,000 pounds ($1.2 million) to two former executives as part of a confidential payout upon departure.
Normally one must speak truth to and about power, but if the group is a mainstay of the left apparently Silence is golden, particularly if it means suppressing truth about an iconic left money machine.
Sen Kelly Ayotte again:
this is the left, if the truth and the reality is not favorable we shall simply ignore it, deny it or pretend it was never there.
On the bright side they can still play the race card if they include her.
Update: Jennifer Rubin appreciates Ayotte, but she is not the left.
Elizabeth Elizabeth Elizabeth you are so close, being kind-hearted you conclude that Ms Williams is taking herself on a monstrous route unknowingly, but observe her argument carefully. This is a place she has been forever, in fact an honest reading of her piece admits the pro-abortion side has been there all along. The only reason she is making this statement in public is she believes it will advance her cause.
And the sanctity of life:
How many years do you think it will take before "So What" extends to other people who the left concludes are less important and less worthy of life?
How long before it becomes a matter of faith that those who would stand up and object or obstruct such obvious truths that are held by the more enlightened must be suppressed? Of course you'd have to disarm them first.
All these things have a common thread, a pattern and it's consistent:
1. Truth is not valued unless it serves a particular ideology.
2. The reality of people's state is subordinate to the perception of their actual condition.
3. Critique can be made based on optics rather than fact.
4. Behaviors that are considered beyond the pale by their own standards are tolerated from specific groups or people.
5. Public standards only exist until they are no longer useful or needed in the fight.
Looking that this list, one might say, it's a fight vs the laws of human nature, yet that is not entirely true, after all, if a person of the right has, say an affair, the left apply said rules to destroy them, as opposed to a Bill Clinton who is still celebrated.
Or one could say it's a battle for "modern feminism" the right for women to advance, yet a Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Nikki Haley or a Michelle Malkin can be publicly attacked in ways 1000 times beyond Sandra Fluke was, and the attackers are embraced and celebrated.
You might argue that its conservative values that prompt the attack, which is why a Kelly Ayotte can be ignored, yet Islam is far more conservative and it is defended.
You could say openness and justice are the goal, but such openness doesn't extend to their own.
You can plead equality for gays, yet the murder or beating of gays in Islamic controlled lands is not an issue while Israel's allowing of gay culture to exist is "pink washing"
In short there appears to be a double standard being employed here, people complain of it often, but that appearance is deceiving. There is a single standard being applied a common thread a singular target that must be destroyed:
That target, Judeo-Christian values, or put simply Christianity.
Christianity is everything the left despises:
It teaches the unity of men, when the power of the left comes from dividing by race or color or creed.
It acknowledges God as the source of our freedom and free will, rather than the state or another giving such freedom
It restrains appetites, greed (thou shalt not covet), lust ( thou shalt not commit adultery), spin (though shalt not bear false witness) and does so by simple rules, rather than letting one do what they want, when you want.
It forgives and accepts anyone, on the condition that said person acknowledges and repents of their sins or at the very least commits to fight the temptation to them.
It gives the absolute freedom to walk away from it, while giving you until the very last second of your life to re-consider before actual judgement is passed.
And worst of all, to those who embrace it the strongest it gives courage, the courage to stand against any slander, any pressure and even die for the sake of Christ rather than sin.
Now some might look at this and scoff, there are Christians without number who violate these rules. Well YEAH of course they do, it's sin, man is susceptible to sin and temptation yet Christianity accepts them and dares to forgive them if only they change. Even the Pope has a confessor.
One might give numerous examples of preachers and priests who have used Christianity as a cloak for their own sins, YEAH of course but there are corrupt police, corrupt courts, corrupt politicians and dishonest accountants, that doesn't mean we should abolish Police, Courts, Government and Math.
One can point to the sins of a government that professes Christianity but even then Christianity is a walk toward perfection, such perfection can't be achieved on earth, the left constantly holds Christianity to a utopian standard that they promise but never deliver knowing that very few if any individual Christians reach that standard.
I can hear the arguments now: There are all kinds of Christians that the left celebrates, yes They are, from breakaway Catholics to Protestants that abandon the written faith the left is always ready to celebrate any Christian that is willing to walk away from the plain language of scripture and tradition. And since anyone and pretty much make their own protestant church by a vote of a group of people however small, there is no problem finding the willing, particularly when fame and acceptance from the right people is offered as a carrot.
Now I can hear those crying: DaTechGuy you're full of it! It's just a load of right wing nonsense you're just upset because we are opposed to that wildly repressive organization known as the Roman Catholic Church that you follow.
That arrangement might hold weight if you didn't consider the left and Islam.
Islam in general and radical Islam in particular is everything those who attack Christianity in general and the Roman Catholic Church in particular despise:
The left says Christianity is misogynistic pointing to Paul words about subordination in verses 22-24 of Ephesians (while conveniently ignoring the radical for the time elevation of women in verses 21, 25-33) yet ignore the open misogyny when practiced without violence (divorce by simple proclamation of a man, subordination in practice, polygamy ), or with violence (honor killing, justified rape or slavery of non-believers)
They condemn Christianity as against homosexual acts (as indeed it is, just as Christianity is against any other sin) yet the actual murder of Gays in Islamic lands or beating of Gays even in Western countries in Muslim enclaves are not newsworthy to them.
They abhor Christianity complaints about the free expression of things we find aberrant or insulting to Christ (as is our right) in public or private display to and roundly condemn us a "puritanical" in defense of free speech.
Yet Molly Norris is still in hiding for a cartoon, South Park's Muhammad episodes are still censored, Christians marching in Dearborn can be physically stoned and a filmmaker is still in prison over a (really lousy) film hitting Islam.
The question then is asked? Why isn't Islam even critiqued when Christianity is targeted? The answer is simple. Christianity IS the target thus the behaviors of Islam are acceptable because it is diametrically opposed to Christianity.
But what about they Jews you might ask? Jews are no more Christians than Hindus are. That's true, but Judaism is the building block that Christianity is built upon. We worship the same God, revere the same prophets and do our best to obey the same 10 commandments. One can describe the difference between Judaism and Christianity in one simple expression:
Jews and Christians are running the same race, but Jews think Christians have jumped the gun, Christians think Jews didn't hear it go off.
Now like any generality there are exceptions. Pat Correll and the late Chris Hitchens come instantly to mind. They have no use for Christianity but also have no use for Islam and at no little risk to themselves loudly fought its Fascism. Likewise my friend Cynthia Yockey might take an exception to my arguments on the truth of Christianity but she is an implacable foe of Radical Islam and has abandoned the fiscal liberalism for the sake of her freedom.
It is no coincidence that all three of these people were rejected by the left for their apostasy although in fairness the left hasn't yet reached the point where, like Islam such apostasy is punishable by death.
I ask you to look at the last 40 years. Look at where the culture and the media has gone and ask your self, why? Ask why children three generations removed from the cultural influences of Christianity find themselves killing themselves and others in numbers not seen before? Ask why schools, particularly those controlled in places the left is strongest are places not of safety or education but of danger and mediocrity. Ask why you have the most medicated culture in history, the most litigious culture in history and a generation that has physical and material advantages that their grandparents and great grandparents could only dream of, can't cope with life and despair of their future.
None of this is a bug, it's all a feature. Is this what you want for your children and grandchildren?
I'm quite sure that this argument will produce scoffs, insults, pejorative labels and maybe even some counter arguments. That's fine, the nonsense I can deal with and as for the arguments, if my thesis is any good it will hold up under critique.
But whatever you say, however you phase it, if you look at the left and the path they have led our culture I submit and suggest there is one way to understand it:
The common thread of the left is the destruction of Judeo Christian culture, standards belief and If you start from that position it all makes perfect sense.

For the past year or so, I've been working on compiling a volume of items published in the early newspapers of Rabun Co., GA, namely The Clayton Argus (1894), The Tallulah Falls Spray (1897 – 1898), and The Clayton Tribune (1899). I finished the main body of the volume several weeks ago and am now working on an index. I have applied for a publishing grant through the R. J. Taylor, Jr. Foundation and, if accepted, I hope to have this volume published within the next few months.
To incite interest in the project, I decided to publish small excerpts every Friday from now through November, or possibly longer.
If you're not familiar with the contents of historical newspapers or their usefulness to research, then you're in for a real treat. Newspapers can provide not only proof of a relationship, but can also help place an ancestor into context with their community, an increasingly important aspect of genealogical research. There are many resources available, in print and online, to help interested individuals locate and use newspapers. One of the best comes from the Board for Certification of Genealogists' newsletter, OnBoard, and is called "Using Newspapers Effectively" by Shelia Benedict.
Here is a small item to get the ball rolling. It comes from the March 30, 1899 issue of The Clayton Tribune:

National Hearing Conservation Association Receives Award in Class Action Suit
Dec 16, 2013, 12:59 ET
WESTMINSTER, Colo., Dec. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Hearing Conservation Association (NHCA) was the recipient of a cy pres award as a part of the settlement of a class action suit against Motorola and other Bluetooth manufacturers. A cy pres award is a dollar amount awarded to a non-profit organization which furthers the interests of those damaged by the possible wrong doing. The NHCA was selected as a recipient due to wide-spread recognition of its long-standing mission of preventing noise-induced and other avoidable hearing loss in all sectors of society.
Although no admissions of guilt were made or implied, these manufacturers settled claims against them for violating rules and regulations which were in place to protect the hearing of consumers. Specifically, the lawsuit claimed that consistent spikes in decibel levels, in conjunction with long term use of Bluetooth headsets could cause temporary and permanent hearing damage. The claims alleged further that no warnings were properly made to alert consumers that their hearing was at risk. The settlement requires all Bluetooth manufacturers to place visible warnings in the proper instruction books to alert users of the potential risks.
Evan Nass, Esq., lead plaintiff in the lawsuit, selected the NHCA as the recipient for the cy pres award, due to the organization's "unyielding advocacy for the prevention of hearing loss." "Our hearing is a precious commodity. The NHCA serves as a tireless guardian for this sense, which is too often ignored or neglected by society."
The award will be utilized by the NHCA Scholarship Foundation to foster research and encourage student involvement in hearing loss prevention, and by the NHCA to further its efforts to prevent hearing loss. These efforts include an annual conference, publication of new research in hearing loss prevention in The International Journal of Audiology, and outreach to both affiliated professions and the general public.
According to NHCA President Jennifer Tufts, "NHCA is a small organization with big ideas and a big mission. With the cy pres award, we can put more of our ideas into action. We are very grateful to Mr. Nass for selecting NHCA as the recipient of this award."
About the National Hearing Conservation Association (NHCA)
The mission of the NHCA is to prevent hearing loss due to noise and other environmental factors in all sectors of society. NHCA provides networking, resources and professional development opportunities to improve skills, practices, and services in hearing loss prevention.

If you are having problems with Rossendales bailiffs and you need help or advice, please get in touch with our team now and we will be able to help you.
We can offer assistance when dealing with Rossendales Bailiffs. Please get in touch now for more information on how to deal with bailiffs.
We provide Rossendales bailiffs help to anyone who needs it. We understand it can be worrying when bailiffs are knocking at your door, which is why we offer the support you need.
With over 45 years experience of debt recovery and enforcement, Rossendales bailiffs in Armagh BT62 3 have become a byword for professionalism combined with experience. They annually recover almost £100 million for over 150 clients across England and Wales. They specialise in four main areas;
As impressive as these figures are, what Rossendales really pride themselves on is the quality of their work. They have only been able to build up those impressive figures by being good at what they do. They are fully authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority and have accreditations and associations from some of the biggest names in finance.
When you employ Rossendale bailiffs to act on your behalf you get the combined wisdom and experience of hundreds of employees working together as a team. That team have shown time and again that they are capable of getting results in the most difficult of situations and have delivered valuable funds back to struggling local councils.
If you would like help when it comes to stopping Rossendales bailiffs in Armagh BT62 3 please complete the contact form provided and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Knowing how to stop Rossendales nearby you will be of great concern if you have received correspondence from them, especially if you disagree with the reason for the debt in the first place.
Disputes are not uncommon when it comes to debt recovery and enforcement, but the way to address the issue is alway the same; you talk to them. Even if you don't dispute the action then you must still speak to them.
If you continue to ignore attempts to contact you regarding an outstanding debt then you are just making things worse for yourself. By speaking to Rossendales you can at least show them that you are not shying away from acknowledging the debt.
Of course, the easiest way to stop Rossendales is by paying the debt outright. Once this has been done then no further action against you will take place. If this is not a realistic option then speak to them to see if setting up a payment plan is a realistic option. Again, once this is set up and the terms are kept to, no further action will be needed by Rossendale bailiffs.
Dealing with Rossendale bailiffs can be made so much easier by speaking to them This does not have to be in person with a bailiff, it can also be done by;
The point is, the sooner you make contact with them the more time it gives you to work on the issue. If you continue to ignore them then the situation will not improve, by speaking to them there is a good chance that they will.
Can Rossendales force entry to your home or workplace? As a general rule, no. But there are some exceptions to that rule. If Rossendale bailiffs are going to force entry into your property it will be to seize goods to pay for one of the following outstanding debts;
However, they are still only allowed to force entry under certain circumstances. If they have gained access to the property before via 'peaceable means' (through an open door, date, extension etc.) to perform a levy. If they return and you refuse them entry, they are allowed to force entry. They can also force entry if any of the above debts have not been paid.
It is worth noting that forced entry is usually with the help of a locksmith. It does not mean causing damage to the property.
They cannot force entry if ;
Using a bailiff will incur extra costs to pay for their services, and this is usually added on to the original debt that is being sought. Depending on the situation with the original creditor, unless the Rossendale bailiff fees are also paid in full then the debt is classed as outstanding.
Some creditors will waiver the Rossendale bailiffs costs if the original debt is paid in full and on time, but this is entirely discretionary. The majority of companies that have enlisted the help of Rossendale to retrieve the debts will not be very accommodating.
Bailiff costs will vary depending upon a few different factors. They have to be displayed clearly by law but the costs are worked out like so;
Compliance - writing to you about the debt
Enforcement - visiting your home
Sale - selling your goods
% extra for debts over £1,500
Rossendale Ltd bailiffs can best be judged by the glowing testimonials they have received from past and current clients. They praise their high retention rates, their tailored service, a high degree of professionalism and their innovation.
Rossendale bailiffs are available across England and Wales and could help you to retrieve lost income through their unique style of debt enforcement and collection.
If you have been affected by debt and are struggling to deal with the Rossendales bailiffs, help is available. You can get this by calling the customer services and explaining your situation to see if anything can be done to allow you a little more breathing room. Alternatively, you can seek advice from non-profit organisations who offer free debt advice.
It sounds obvious, but if you need to know how to prevent Rossendale bailiffs from coming to your property then the best course of action would be to contact them immediately. The more time that is wasted, the less time there is to sort out a solution.
Paying the debt in full within the allotted time frame will stop further contact from Rossendale bailiffs. Even if you dispute the debt it is still a wise decision to approach them as soon as possible to get all the facts of the alleged debt.

What is the best way to get 5-FU (fluorouracil) (by IV, continuous infusion, or pill)?
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
What is the best way to get 5-FU (fluorouracil) (by IV, continuous infusion, or pill)?
Carolyn Vachani, MSN, RN, AOCN, OncoLink's Clinical Trials Coordinator, responds:
This is a difficult question to answer, as the treatment should fit the patient's particular case. For example, an elderly patient may not tolerate certain regimens as well as a younger, healthier patient, or a patient may not have responded to one form of 5-FU, but could respond to another form.
That being said, the oldest, and most tested way to receive 5-FU is by intravenous infusion, usually given over 2 hours. Studies have been testing this form of 5-FU since the 1950's. This is the method most often used in the treatment of stage II and III colon cancers after surgery, and in combination with other medications for stage IV cancer.
Several studies in the treatment of stage IV colon cancer have utilized continuous infusion 5-FU. These studies have reported decreased side effects, and some have reported increased response rates with a small benefit in survival time. This method of giving 5-FU may be used in conjunction with 5-FU by shorter infusion, other chemotherapies, or radiation.
Oral 5-FU is a relatively new treatment available for the treatment of colon cancers. In one study this medication had more responses to treatment then 5-FU infusion, but the time until the cancer returned or progressed was equal in both medications. Because it works differently then the intravenous form, this may be an option for patients who no longer respond to the intravenous form of 5-FU.

Pete Carroll and John Schneider don't give a [email protected]%#! They do what they want to do. They're the honey badgers of the NFL.
Russell Wilson is too short? Schneider doesn't care … he drafts him with a third-round pick and Carroll starts him in the preseason and turns him into one of the best quarterbacks in the league.
Brandon Browner was a Broncos reject and deported to the Canadian Football League? Schneider doesn't care … he brings him into camp and Carroll turns him into a Pro Bowl corner in one season.
Red Bryant is too big to play defensive end? Schneider and Carroll don't care … they move him to the outside of the defensive line and Big Red flourishes and presents huge challenges to opposing offenses.
Reverse passes and flea-flickers are considered gimmicky in the NFL? Carroll doesn't care … he'll run whatever he feels like. Same with going for it on fourth down and onside kicks. Carroll doesn't give a [email protected]%#!
In case you're not one of the 53 million people who have seen the viral YouTube video, the honey badger is known as the most fearless animal in the animal kingdom. He'll climb up a tree to eat a snake, crawl inside of a bee hive for honey and bee larva, and he'll even risk the poisonous venom of a king cobra. Sure, the honey badger gets bit every once in a while, forcing him to pass out for a few moments, but when he wakes up that cobra is gonna get eaten.
Why? Like Carroll and Schneider, the honey badger doesn't give a [email protected]%#!
In a copy-cat league where personnel decisions and play-calling never gets very far out of the box, Schneider and Carroll buck traditional, safe decision making and do what they believe in. If you have no other reason to root for the Seahawks, there's a good place to start.
Iconoclasts unite!
I wrote at the beginning of the year about this team being an Island of Misfit Toys but it's more than just the personnel decisions they make. In just about every way, this team is unique. The players on its roster, the coaching decisions they make and the plays they run are different from anything you'll see around the NFL.
Personnel. Like the honey badger, Schneider will crawl into a bee hive to find winning talent. Wilson is too short. Doug Baldwin and Golden Tate are not traditional, Calvin Johnson "Megatron"-style receivers. K.J. Wright and Kam Chancellor are simply too tall and lanky to get low enough on defense, where leverage is so important. Richard Sherman only played two seasons in college at cornerback. Yet these are some of the best players at their position in the NFL.
I could go on and on. Who turns a college defensive tackle like rookie J.R. Sweezey into an offensive guard? They have a former running back in Allen Bradford, who scored 16 touchdowns in college, playing inside linebacker on the practice squad … and he's good. It's just different.
Coaching. Tom Cable, the mastermind behind the zone blocking scheme, was a unique hire. Cable came to Seattle off of a tumultuous stint as head coach of the Raiders. Somehow he fits in perfectly with Carroll and offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell. Every offensive lineman I've spoken to this year, from Paul McQuistan to Max Unger, gushes over Cable's ability to explain offensive line play.
He's a tough guy who was born to coach and will do it from anywhere, including a hospital bed. Last year he underwent critical back surgery that took him off the field for a couple of weeks but he was able to coach via Skype from his post-operative location.
Last Sunday in the Seahawks' win over the Jets, Cable made a change during the game that was critical to the running game and more than doubled its production in the second half. He determined that the line's aiming points were slightly off and a little ahead of where they needed to be in order to block the Jets' defensive line and linebackers.
Garnering that information during a game and at ground level is as difficult as it gets. It's nearly impossible to see from the sidelines so you must rely on the feedback you get from five different players and the coaches up in the press box. Somehow Cable was able to alter the offensive line's blocking angles and improve the Hawks first-half run production from 52 yards to 122 yard.
You know what? Tom Cable is a honey badger, too!
Play-calling. Carroll and Bevell will climb up a tree to chew a snake's head off, too. Late in the New England game with the Hawks down 23-17 to the AFC champions from a year ago, Carroll and Bevell went up top with a rollout pass that Wilson threw deep to Sidney Rice for the game-winning touchdown. They've run flea-flickers and reverse passes and gone for it on fourth down in some very critical situations.
Don't underestimate how devastating these decisions can be to an NFL coach or general manager if they don't work out. Remember how much complaining there was after the Seahawks opened the second half with an onside kick in the loss at St. Louis in Week 4? Remember all of the criticism over Browner early in the season last year? Remember all the heat they took from the national media for drafting James Carpenter and Bruce Irvin in the first rounds of the past two drafts?
There's a reason why executives and coaches in the NFL don't take those kinds of chances – they get you fired if it doesn't work out.
But those decisions are working out and they're paying off big for the Seahawks. But unlike the honey badger, Pete Carroll and John Schneider aren't making those moves just because they feel like it or because they don't give a [email protected]%#! They're making those decisions because they believe in them – so do I.

Our dear friend and long-time member Dave passed away on the 10th of December 2018. He will be missed and remembered fondly. May he rest in peace.
I know that I have related before that I should have died three times so far and, with a serious heart condition, am very aware of my vulnerability.However, for some reason, I am still an optimist, living day by day but still looking forward to tomorrow, and the tomorrow in a few days time when I will go out to lunch with a friend. Even the fact that the friends in my age group are now dying does not cause me to fear my own death.It will happen, chances are it will be a "kind death" without much warning or pain. Constantly fearing it could well make it happen sooner!
I am afraid of many kinds of dying, but I'm not afraid of death. If I had the choice between a short life and living forever, I choose a short life even if that means that I die tomorrow. But if I could choose to live for a thousand or so years, I'd probably go for that.When I am dead, I won't care about anything any more because I won't exist to be able have cares.
I like veg, nuts and fruit!
I don't fear death itself, but I don't want to die. I have too many things that I want to do, and it will take many thousands of years to do them. My bucket list will have quite a number of things not done when I kick off.
I would say I don't have a fear of being dead because I believe anything happens after you die. But I do have a fear of method of death. Don't want to suffer. Hopefully its quick and painless

At the World Bank Group, we are deeply committed to supporting climate-smart agriculture, which is an approach with three core goals that together point the way towards a "triple win": increasing productivity and incomes, building resilience while reducing vulnerability, and reducing emissions – potentially capturing carbon as well.

I completely agree with the thinking here on climate-smart agriculture. In today's politics, I also concur with a focus on adaptation with collateral mitigation benefits. I've previously brokered the sale of emission reduction offsets from adopting more sustainable land use practices by small holder farms and I resonate with the need to consider a landscape approach.
However, working in the private sector, it is disappointing that policymakers could not assure an adequate regulatory framework whether for emissions trading or carbon taxes that could accelerate adoption of climate-smart agriculture.
As a private investor in emerging market climate-smart agriculture, I am focused on realizing opportunities that reduce international supply chain risk, increase productivity, while enhancing production stability that anticipates increased weather variability. We favor smallholder farms and aspire to have sensible public sector investment partners.
We could bring even more private investors to climate-smart agriculture with investment risk mitigation provisions that can be afforded by greater public sector participation in capital markets benefiting climate-smart agriculture. One hurdle is that private investors can be dissuaded by the transaction costs associated with engaging multilateral agencies.
All to say that I commend you on furthering this important area of work.

- Catalyzing private investment to accelerate the regenerative power of people and nature
Climate-smart is the best way in that is working with Nature, and its success is further supported in that it will be sustainable! I come from the Agriculture and biology side with degrees in both and a life-long production agriculture experience base.
Sustainable production,soil health,monitoring with the new carbon sequester protocol from Carbon Link Ltd AU.(which is 100 times more accurate)and monitoring the GHG problem can be challenged. That system will also work to improve water quality, food supply and better health to developing countries.
I also believe the National Rural Electric Coop Assoc. through its US and International ties can play a big part in the sucess. It is a matter of drawing all resource groups together for the common good.
Agriculture cannot be bypassed in any measure aimed at addressing climate change. Soils hold a great potential in storing carbon and thus mitigating climate change. Let the farmers be paid for the ecosystem services. Such incentives will make farmers aware about carbon farming and will enhance agricultural sustainability. For instance, farmers in Punjab state of India, one of the most advanced agricultural regions, can be incentivized for minimizing water use, fertilizer use and for raising soil organic carbon level. In other words, the farmers can be rewarded on the basis of carbon footprint of their farming practices. Such measures can go a long way in activizing agriculture in the climate change scenario.

Our book today is from 1910: Bess of Hardwick and Her Circle by Mrs. Matilda Carbury - I beg your pardon, Mrs. Stepney Rawson, a bustling literary lady from the beautiful Berkshire countryside who ingratiated herself to various book-column editors in Edwardian London to look kindly upon her various and numerous productions - some of which needed all the friends they could get. In a later generation, the author of such works as Journeyman Love, The Apprentice, and The Stairway of Honour would inevitably turn out to be a sham persona concocted by Bertie Wooster (and given ample form by the unfailing Jeeves)(and a generation after that, she'd take the form of Miss Amelia Nettleship and rob poor Rumpole of his sleep), but in the early years of the 20th century, she was all too real, and her letters to prospective reviewers - smilingly imploring them to look kindly upon her poor efforts - have a decidedly Carburyesque tone to them that the reader might wish had been deliberate parody on her part.
Alas, no: Mrs. Rawson was nothing if not earnest, whether organizing the church theatricals and musicals of which she was so fond or writing the books for which she was known and somewhat celebrated in her own time, though she's entirely forgotten in our own. Sic transit gloria Mudie's.
Her best-selling book was a frothy piece of fiction called A Lady of the Regency, for which she managed to obtain quite a few favorable (though often somewhat grudgingly so) reviews. Romance novel fans might note it now for one main reason: it was one of the earliest of the archly formulaic Regency novels that would later account for such staggering swaths of the Western world's book-production (if you took away Regencies, whodunits, and westerns, the total number of books every published would drop by half). Nearly a decade after the success of that novel, Mrs. Rawson finally realized a long-held ambition to write a big, serious work of biography, a serious "exploration" (as she put it) of history.
She chose as her topic that most fascinating of Elizabethans, Elizabeth Hardwick, "Bess of Hardwick," the feisty, pretty daughter of a prosperous Nottinghamshire squire who took unusual care that all his children were well-schooled in letters and literature. The crucial formative fact that her parents took her seriously as a person gave Bess a steel rod for a personality, and she'd no sooner hit puberty than she was helping her mother (and her mentor, Anne Gainsford, a beautiful beaker of pure poison who'd warrant a biography of her own if any reader could be found to stomach it) find her a likely husband. The first of these, a handsome local heir, coughed himself into an early grave before he could even deflower Bess, which infuriated her. An intense amount of lobbying and odds-handicapping followed, the fruit of which was a marriage much higher up the food chain: fifty-something Sir William Cavendish, a very prosperous courtier and landowner who'd already lost two wives to the childbearing bed. With Sir William, Bess became Lady Cavendish, she became a mother many times over (Sir William was a vigorous man), and almost accidentally, she fell in love with her husband.
Who died ten years later and left Bess on the marriage-market once again. She waited a decent two years and then married an even wealthier landowner, Sir William St. Loe, who (mincing, beady-eyed) was the exact opposite of Sir William Cavendish in all ways but one: he also quickly came under the spell of his new wife, taking her opinions exactly as he would those of a man, watching in wonder as she whipped his various estates into shape (many of the letters we have in Bess of Hardwick's hand are hot-tempered instructions to wayward stewards - even now, their words snap: they can't have been pleasant to receive), trying to keep up with her in the banquet hall and bedroom. Sir William was only human: he died after about five years in the whirlwind. He was also immeasurably grateful for the ride: he left Bess everything, making her a stupendously wealthy woman.
Her next and last husband was her worst: George Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury - an even wealthier landowner than her previous two husbands, an intimate friend of the Queen, one of the great powers in the realm, and the mother of all humorless pricks (actually, considering the remorseless slab of beef his son Gilbert turned out to be, probably more accurate to call him the father of all humorless pricks). Through George Talbot, Bess finally had access not only to vast wealth and land but to the electrified cables of actual power, and the proximity worked its customary dark magic on her. She conceived dangerous ambitions - not for herself but for her daughter Elizabeth, whom she pushed into a marriage with Charles Stuart, the brother of the second husband of Mary Queen of Scots (who was later quartered on the Talbots for large chunks of her house arrest in England, a discreet form of punishment meted out by an unforgetting Queen). Such a marriage was of course treason without the Queen's consent, and when Elizabeth I found out, Bess was ordered to report to London and explain herself. But she was ambitious, not crazy: she stayed on her impregnable country estates and waited for the Queen to calm down. And the Fates remembered her insolence: she was to have a grievously tempestuous relationship with Elizabeth's stunning daughter, Arabella Stuart.
Naturally, all this is catnip for Mrs. Rawson - how could it be otherwise, when she'd spent her entire literary apprenticeship as a novelist trying in vain to cook up plots half so enthralling? She goes at her subject in Bess of Hardwick and Her Circle with the same zeal she used in writing her novels - the exact same zeal, so this big, enjoyable book is full of 'my lady's and 'my good lord's and even a couple of brief dramatic scenes complete with stage-directions, which our author breathlessly defends:
The orthodox may be affronted at two brief incursions into fiction ... Let them skip these judiciously, magisterially. For my own part, I needed consolation at times for certain hard and bitter facts of history. Therefore, since the way was sometimes long, and the wind, in my imagination, very cold - as it whistled in and out of the ruins of those manors and castles, where the Scots Queen and her married gaolers dwelt, or as it drove the snow across the splendid facade of Hardwick (to say nothing of the draughts of the sombre, public research libraries) - I first drew my Countess down from her picture-frame to marshal her household, and then lured her child and her child's lover after to gladden your road and mine.
Well, how can you argue with that?
The 'orthodox' will find a great deal to object to in these pages other than amateur theatricals, but no matter: the romantic at heart, the dreamer, and especially anyone who's ever visited Hardwick Hall will very likely love this florid, heartfelt book. Certainly much better biographies of Bess of Hardwick have been written (Mary S. Lovell's is not to be missed), but none more passionate. If you can find a library that still stocks it, borrow a copy without delay! Mine came from this one, but they're no longer in business, unfortunately:

OBU Sets Record-Breaking Freshman Enrollment
October 14, 2013
OBU announced a record-breaking freshman enrollment of 580 students this fall, a 14.6 percent increase over last year's numbers. OBU's total new student enrollment, including transfer students, increased to an all-time high of 678 students, a 10.1 percent increase.
Overall enrollment grew six percent, up 118 students over last year, to a total enrollment of 2,097 students for the 2013-14 academic year. The new count is the highest enrollment at OBU since 1999, when the student population was 2,123.
"This is our sixth year of steady enrollment growth," said OBU President David Whitlock. "Our growing student population indicates an increasing awareness of the overall value of the Christian liberal arts education provided at OBU. Our students are challenged to grow academically and spiritually."
The 2013 enrollment includes 1,936 full-time and 161 part-time students. Full-time students are enrolled in at least 12 credit hours for the semester. The overall enrollment figure includes students from 34 states and 90 international students from 30 other countries. The numbers reflect 1,403 Oklahoma students attending OBU this year, for a total of 67 percent of the student body population. Almost 16 percent of the students come from Texas.
"We are appreciative of the outstanding work of our admissions team who steadily strive to reach more prospective students with the mission of OBU," said Dr. Stan Norman, provost and executive vice president for campus life. "We also are grateful to have faculty and staff who daily provide an exceptional academic experience and outstanding service and support to our students."
OBU's enrollment includes undergraduate students as well as 78 students enrolled in OBU's College of Graduate and Professional Studies, which operates in Oklahoma City offering master's degrees in business administration, nursing, and marriage and family therapy. The total also includes 48 off-campus students who study through OBU's Joe L. Ingram School of Christian Studies.
Eighty-nine students are enrolled in special programs at OBU, including the Intensive English Program, concurrent enrollment program and others.
"I am so proud of our admissions team, not only for their accomplishment this year, but the manner in which they conducted themselves on a daily basis, said Bruce Perkins, OBU dean of enrollment management. "They are an asset to our university and represent us well whether they are on the road, at a campus event, or with families on campus."
