Ah, Maltstock! 2013 marked Master of Malt's 4th visit to the "relaxed whisky weekend", although of the four people who went, three of us were, in fact, Maltstock virgins! That Boutique-y Whisky Company have also now released their second batch of Highland Park single malt Scotch whisky, complete with Maltstock label – more on that towards the end!
As mentioned above, Cat (now Maverick Drinks' Brand Communications Manager), was the only one of us who had travelled to Maltstock before (making the local newspapers in the process), the rest of the team was made up by her Maverick minion Teesh, Sam Alexandra (who is MoM's marketing maestro), and yours truly!

Back in December I visited the Worship Street Whistling Shop for a very special, two hour long 'multi-sensory experience': the final Diageo Whisky Theatre of the year. The project is the work of irrepressible Diageo brand ambassador Colin Dunn and the Fluid Movement duo of Tristan Stephenson and Tom Aske who have presented similar experiences in the past, for example with rum, but the mention of whisky certainly caught our attention immediately! I believe Tristan also has a whisky book coming out this year too – one to watch out for.
There is (just) room for nine people but I was joined by a fab four of Gin Monkey, Imbibe's Laura Foster (recent winner of the Alan Lodge Young International Spirits Writer of the Year), Siobhan Payne from Difford's Guide and London Cocktail Week and Alex Kratena off of The Artesian (named The World's Best Bar for the second year running in 2013).

More or less every time I write a blog post, I ask management for permission to use the phrase "hells-a-poppin'"...
I get shot down mercilessly every time.
Well, the renowned whiskym'n at The Macallan have only gone and released part five in their legendary Lalique Six Pillars Collection. Each single malt in the ultra-super-deluxe-premium range is made from exceedingly rare old stock, and bottled in decanters designed and created by the famous French crystal house, Lalique. If ever there was a time for the term hells-a-poppin', surely now is it.

This week's #MasterofCocktails recipe is an absolutely stunning, christmassy twist on one of the true classics. The Vieux Carré dates back to the 1930s, but as we're creeping ever closer to Christmas 2013, here's a version using the latest festive ingredient from Professor Cornelius Ampleforth.
Many thanks go to Mark Gill (@thecocktailgeek) for the inspiration behind this one – a top suggestion that's very much appreciated.
In case you're sick of Christmas cocktails, apart from the fact that we pity you, there's also some good news – next week we're doing something totally different and you can find all the ingredients you'll need for that one at the bottom.

Blimey, it's been pretty busy around here lately! Jumping crocodiles, there's been a lot to do! Most of it has something to with some little celebration towards the end of the month or something...
Just kidding, I can't pretend to not be excited about Santa! I'm literally bursting with festive excitement! You see, I bloody love Christmas, me! The decorations, the music, all the wrapped up pressies and, of course, the Die Hard movies.
What on earth is there not to like?

Here we are, in the second week of advent already! It must be time for the first, but definitely not the last, #MasterofCocktails Christmassy drink of December, this one being a festive twist on a classic...
You see, we love a good whiskey sour, but we also sure do love warming, Christmassy flavours at this time of year with ginger being one of the yummiest and most satisfying of them all. Back in October we not only made the perfect Eggnog but also some Bathtub Ginger Beer using fresh ginger and (perhaps unsurprisingly) ginger beer. Both cocktail recipes are well worth a revisit as we approach Christmas, but this time around we'll be getting our ginger warmth from an excellent ginger liqueur as well as gingerbread syrup, which brings some darn' tasty baked goodness into the mix!

When asked if I fancied a trip to Southwold I didn't have to do a lot of thinking. A chance to visit a lovely coastal town, get some fresh, sea air in my lungs, escape the madness of the festive season AND visit the fantastic Adnams distillery to taste two brand new English whiskies?!
Um, yes. I think I can probably manage that, at a push. So off I went to Waveney to meet up with Jonathan Adnams, Chairman and fourth-generation brewer, and Head Distiller John McCarthy for a bit of a shimmy around the distillery and to taste two new, unique whiskies prior to their release.
The first ever Adnams whiskies. Ever.

With plans to make Christmas 2013 closely resemble a night out with Charles Bukowski during his downtime, I've been thinking hard about what booze I want. Historically, I would have written to Santa Claus, but I recently read a thought-provoking essay by biologist Dickie Dawkins and now no longer believe in his existence. This, then, is an open letter to anyone who knows me and wants to get me the boozes.

Sunday was the first day of advent, and as literally thousands of giddy adults cracked open the first window of their Drinks by the Dram Advent Calendars I wanted to make another grown-up version of a childhood favourite to go along with them.
So, we made a Bourbon Milkshake! People like milkshakes. That's proven. This one's incredibly straight-forward and absolutely delicious. Before we get started though, it would be crazy of me to mention the Advent Calendars without sharing this brilliant video with you, released today! See how many people you can recognise. It even includes an incredibly handsome man all tucked up in bed with some kind of wintery weather-induced malady...

I know that enemies level up with you, but at which level does it become more of a fair fight? I'm currently a Level 10 Khajiit, so I haven't gotten too far into the game quite yet.
Level isn't a very good indicator of capability. Against a physical opponent like a bear, armor rating can mean the difference. I think you should have about 125 armor rating before challenging bears.
Some ways to get more armor rating:
I think the best way to deal with a bear is with a sneak attack by a bow. If you have the perk deadly aim (archery sneak shot three times dmg) it is even easier. If you do this it does not matter what level you are on. I took down a snow bear level 5

|Submarine Technology Overview
Submarine Technology Overview
Come aboard and step into the exciting world of submarine technology. Learn the transformation from crude containers designed to keep the water out to the nuclear powered steel underwater sharks of today!
Capture the leaps of technology including:
Revolutionary War
David Bushnell created the Turtle that delivered his new, improved underwater bomb against the British warships in New York Harbor with surprising effects in the American War of Independence.
Civil War
The human powered Confederate submarine Hunley sunk the Union warship Housatonic, one and a half miles at sea off Charleston harbor in February 1864. Lost for over a hundred thirty years, this submersible was discovered and raised in 2000 from her resting place in the sand where she sank after her attack.
World Wars One and Two
With the battle fleet on the bottom of Pearl Harbor, the modern high speed surface raider, the Fleet submarine, one exampe of which is the USS Bowfin, destroyed the bulk of Imperial Japanese shipping. Walk through the submarine in the steps of those heroes who scored the amazing victories as a small team while suffering devastating losses.
Cold War to Present
Capable of electronically picking your pocket or destroying an enemy's submarines, these sleek, neuclear powered sharks of steel are currently our front line of defense.
Secrets of the Sub
|The Very First Sub Ever
The First Submarine Ever
There were many countries around the world developing submarines in the 17th and 18th century both for wartime use and for commercial purposes. In the United States, we say the Turtle, developed by a Yale University professor, David Bushnell, was our first submarine. Designed to deliver an underwater mine with a timed fuse, it's original purpose was to break the blockade of the British Navy in New York harbor in 1776, during the War of Independence. Almost a hundred later the Confederate States Ship Hunley with a crew of nine men braved the waters of Charleston, South Carolina harbor to attack and sink the Union Ship USS Housitanic. The weapon used was a mine mounted on a spar jutting from the bow of the submarine. Again, the purpose was to break the blockade of a harbor but within 40 years, the United States started the submarine explosion with the Simon Lake, SS-1, in 1900 , designed as a scouting ship for America's emerging battle fleets. In less than 20 years, the first world war would see the island nation of Great Brritain brought to her knees by German commerce raiding submarines and submarines , large and small being developed by many nations.

NFTY-PAR: Making a Difference with a Small Donation
26 January 2015
Being a part of the NFTY-PAR community has affected me in many different ways. I have made life-long friendships, learned many Jewish values, including helping others that are less fortunate. However, the most important part to me is the social action component. Over the weekend of January 16th-18th, WINSTY was held at my temple, Congregation Shaarai Shomayim in Lancaster, PA. Over the weekend PARticipants from all across Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey and Delaware, helped improve my community while having a fun time with friends. It was inspiring for me to see my fellow PARites learn and grow from projects they participated in throughout the Lancaster community.

More Chicago baseball coverage: Cubs blog | White Sox blog | Levine bio
Bruce Levine (1:02 PM)
Out here watching James Russell and Ryan Dempster and Carlos Silva throw to live hitting. Welcome to the chat live from Mesa.
Matt (Chicago)
Please keep a close eye on Vitters. His development , or lack thereof, will have a huge impact on our offseason needs & our ability to let Aram walk, no?
Bruce Levine (1:03 PM)
Still needs a little more maturity and work on his defense. They still feel he's a major league hitting prospect.
Brandon (las cruces, nm)
How well do you think the cubs big 3 starters are going to work with each other? It seems that Zambrano has matured a lot since his breakdown last season.
Bruce Levine (1:04 PM)
In reality, starting pitchers don't work with each other. They work independently on the days they pitch, but they can be big assets to each other in the clubhouse. Zambrano has showed all positive signs in camp as far as being supportive of his teammates.
Juan (Texas)
I am a Ranger fan who misses Byrd and with his relationship with the Balco guy, any chance the Cubs trade him to the Rangers for Davis and Borbon?
Bruce Levine (1:05 PM)
Things like trading Byrd were talked about in the winter. The Cubs are paper thin in the outfield. They're not about to make a move there right now.
Timmy (Chicago )
Bruce, I know Coleman is not a sexy pick to get the 5th spot, but I like him n I know Maddux's likes him to any chance he beats out Cashner, Silva, Looper and Russell?
Bruce Levine (1:06 PM)
It is an open tryout. Everyone will get their opportunity and they like Coleman as much as you do. But he'll have to pitch almost perfectly to get a rotation spot.
Joe (Chicago Pilsen)
Bruce, I know its to early to tell, but if Cash does not make the rotation will he go back to the pen or sent to AAA to get some starts?
Bruce Levine (1:07 PM)
Definitely not going to minors. The plan is he'll get stretched out, and if he goes back to the pen, so be it. They want that arm in the big leagues. Russell may be a different story, however.
chris (oswego)
Are the Cubs content with Ojeda and Barney as back-up IF's or are they still looking, or maybe they feel they have swing-men in Baker/DeWitt that can play 3rd if(when) Aramis goes down.
Bruce Levine (1:09 PM)
You have a handle on it pretty well. They're not looking elsewhere, although in my opinion they should. If something happens to Castro or Ramirez, they'll need another veteran backup who can hit a little better than they guys they have.
Kevin M (Champaign)
Bruce -Who would you pick to make the 4th and 5th rotation spots? My gut instinct would go with Cashner and Wells, but if Silva is anything like the first half of last year he should be given the spot.
Bruce Levine (1:10 PM)
I'd go with Wells and Silva, if they pitch the way they should in spring. I would send Russell to get stretched out as a starter in Triple-A, put Cashner in the pen.
Bruce (Elk Grove)
If the Cubs can come up with timely hitting, can they contend for both the NL Central and NL?
Bruce Levine (1:12 PM)
Going to be about pitching first. They top 3 have to win 50 games.
ESPNChicago.com (1:12 PM)
Bruce had to step away for a second. Please stand by.
Anthony (Des Moines)
Bruce, I think the Cubs are okay at 2nd with DeWitt, Barney, and Baker. But to put it into perspective if Pena, Castro, or Ramirez go down then that means that 2 out of the 3 of those guys will be playing everyday, Ouch. That is when it is really going to sting. I know that Covin will get some time in spring training, but I'm assuming he will be an emergency option only.
Bruce Levine (1:14 PM)
Colvin and Baker will be primed to back up Pena. Baker and DeWitt will back up Ramirez at third. About the only real backup for Castro is Barney or Ojeda. The team will have to decide which one to go with.
Ted Lilly (Los Angeles)
Is there any chance the Cubs would trade for me in late July if they're in first place and my Dodgers are below .500? Would the purse strings be loosened under that scenario?
Bruce Levine (1:15 PM)
I don't know Ted, a 3-year commitment to you at your age might be a little iffy. We might have to check with Ken Williams to see if it's alright.
Ed (Chicago)
Bruce,Any chance the Cubs are going to add a bench player with some pop before spring training breaks? They seem to be pretty lacking in that department; a guy who can come in a give you a clutch extra base hit from time to time. Thanks.
Bruce Levine (1:15 PM)
I'm with you,and Orlando Cabrera can be the right guy. He signed a 1M contract with the Indians. However, the Indians may part with him in the right deal. Right now, the Cubs don't have any money.
Stanley Yelnats (Saint Paul, MN)
Is there any chance that the opening day pitcher will change over spring training? Also, is there any chance that Zambrano will be a sore loser about this thing? Has he really changed? I know he went 8-0 after anger management, but that was a long time ago and I don't really know what to expect from him this season.
Bruce Levine (1:17 PM)
They're not changing the Opening Day starter, however all the other things you said about Zambrnao are true. We're hoping to see a different Zambrano, the same one who was a good teammate the last third of 2010.
Mike (Downtown)
Bruce, if Aramis and Pena have bounce-back years, Colvin continues to get stronger and hit for power, where can we realistically see the Cubs finishing in the division (understanding their pitching is pretty solid all 9 innings)?
Bruce Levine (1:18 PM)
I think they can 85-88 games. That might be enough to win the division depending on how strong the Cardinals, Brewers and Reds are.
bob (minnesota)
Who will leadoff against lefties? righties? Who is the starting 2b? Who gets the lionshare at 2b?
Bruce Levine (1:18 PM)
The answer to 3 of those questions is most likely DeWitt. Against lefties, it's Baker. Fukudome is another option to lead off.
Mike (Winchester, VA)
Are there still currently talks about renovating Wrigley Field? I know a few years ago there was talk about renovation and the possiblity of playing home games on the South Side. What is the status of this?
Bruce Levine (1:19 PM)
Board of director member Todd Ricketts said last Friday that the Cubs should have renovation plans set within the year.They're going to have to wait to see who the new mayor is before they get going in that area. They'll need city cooperation.
dan (ny )
will zambrano give th cubs 10 wins?
Bruce Levine (1:20 PM)
10 will not be enough. If it's only 10, they'll be in trouble. They need 10-15 from Z, and he's capable of doing it.
Adam (Loop)
Bruce - I haven't heard much about prospects for the Cubs infield. Obviously, Lee was #1 on that list, but after the trade for Garza and aside from Vitters .318 career OPB, who can fans be excited about to watch in spring training?
Bruce Levine (1:23 PM)
CJ Lemahieu is someone they feel wil be a major league 2b in the next few years.
Jim (Chicago)
What can the Cubs realistically expect from Fukudome this year?
Bruce Levine (1:24 PM)
Depends on how many at-bats he gets. Looks like he'll be a part-time player, but if he gets hot, Quade will have no choice but to use him and lead off against righty.
Jerry (Orland Park)
Would you rather pay Pujols 35mil for 6 seasons or pay Fielder 30mil for 6 seasons?
Bruce Levine (1:25 PM)
Personally, I would take Fielder. But if you asked 100 guys, I would be the only one. I just like that he's 27 and hasn't reached his potential yet. But most people would call me stupid.
BassmanUW (Chicago)
I know that the Cubs want a left handed pitcher in the rotation, and I know that James Russell is working on his change up, but they have to be worried about his complete inability to get out right handed batters last season. He struck out 12.64 left handed hitters per 9, compared to only 4.13 right handed hitters. His xFIP against left handed hitters was a strong 2.65, but against right handed hitters was a bad 5.77. This guy can't be seriously considered as a starter unless he's a vastly different pitcher than he was last season, right?
Bruce Levine (1:26 PM)
Command of the changeup will determine whether he'll be able to get right-handers out. We shall see.
Tex (Austin)
I believe the Cubs need to keep at least 3 lefties since they will most likely have all righties in the rotation. I liked what I saw of Scott Maine last year! Does he make the team as the 3rd lefty?
Bruce Levine (1:26 PM)
He does if Russell makes the rotation or is sent to Triple-A.
J.P. (the 815)
Bruce,Do you think Quade is going to make some changes to the order? How would you set the lineup for '11?
Bruce Levine (1:28 PM)
Against right-handers: DeWitt, Castro, Pena, Ramirez, Fukudome, Colvin, Soriano, Soto.
Burns (Machesney Park,IL)
Will there ever be a time when Soriano will look good to AL teams as a DH if we agree to pay part of his salary? Or are we stuck another 4 years?
Bruce Levine (1:29 PM)
I think he's a career Cub at this point.
Jerry (Orland Park)
Do the cubs trade Fukudome at next years trade deadline?
Bruce Levine (1:29 PM)
You're not going to get anything for Fukudome. If he's good, keep him. If he's bad, no one wants him.
Bruce Levine (1:31 PM)
We expect to talk to Carlos Zambrano after practice today. Keep reading ESPNChicago.com to see what he says. Now time for Doug Padilla on the White Sox.
Doug Padilla (1:34 PM)
Time to bring your White Sox questions. The team hit the field for te first full squad workout of the spring less than an hour ago.
abraham garcia (oak lawn)
What would happen if the whitesox got off to a start similiar to last year or perhaps a mediocre one, would kenny and jerry hAve the same patience before they start dismantling the team?
Doug Padilla (1:36 PM)
They probably do have the same patience, if not more. This White Sox team would appear to be more talented than last year's. Then there is the temptation to give Peavy the time to round into his Cy Young form. If they were going to go young they would have done it in the offseason. Talk to me again if they are 20 games under .500 toward the end of July.
john (chicago)
have u seen peavy pitch yet? how does he look relative to his peers?
Doug Padilla (1:39 PM)
Peavy looks about the same as everybody else, perhaps a little behind them. He isn't throwing hard yet, but most guys aren't at this time of the year. Danks and Jackson did let it go a little bit yesterday. He's not expected to stay on pace with his rotation-mates, though. He will ease into a routine that gets him back by April 10 or April 20.
D Simon (Bucktown)
If Viciedo is capable of playing RF (great arm, claims it's his natural position), would the Sox look to trade Q? What type of pitching prospects could we get for him? I think it would be a great course of action if Viciedo is actually capable of holding it down.
Doug Padilla (1:42 PM)
Carlos Quentin, for all his ups and downs, is a guy that would be hard to let go. You know he'll figure it out eventually. As good as Viciedo's bat is, and will be, it's too early to project him as a starter in RF without the Sox not having watched him play there yet.
Michael (Orlando)
Good thing or bad thing for Rios to say the Sox are the team to beat?
Doug Padilla (1:45 PM)
It's not like the comment is going to fire up the Twins any more than they already are. But it's not wise simply because the Twins might not make the sexiest offseason moves, but they figure out a way to make it work for them. The defending division champ is always the team to beat. Konerko said as much this morning.
Tom S. (Madison, WI)
If Ozzie names Sale his closer and the kid succeeds in the role, will this bullpen be the best we've seen on the Southside under Kenny and Ozzie?
Doug Padilla (1:47 PM)
If Sale locks down that closer role, it could be a pretty nasty group. Santos has to move forward, though. The 2005 group didn't look dominating at the start of the year, but they figured it out fast.
Ryan (Crystal Lake)
How does Teahen win the 3B job? Not to take anything away from Moral...just wondering if its possible for Teahen since Moral is a front runner.
Doug Padilla (1:50 PM)
Teahen would have to bust out offensively, while Morel flops badly. Morel is viewed as the favorite and the more you talk to people down here the more it seems as if the job is his. And that's before the games begin.
Bill Wiggins (Rockville, VA)
Does Quentin's defense bring the Sox over all outfield defense to below average? You cann't have a great pitching staff without ,at least, good defense.
Doug Padilla (1:52 PM)
There are certainly better right fielders. And with Pierre's arm in left, this isn't the most talked about group defensively. But Rios in center helps the cause and Pierre can track down balls that others can't.
Andrew (Columbia, MO)
If Sale leap frogs Thornton, how can that be seen as anything other than a slap in the face for Matt? Thornton should have taken the role from Jenks full time last year. He has been nothing but dominant for 3 seasons. Why would he NOT be the closer?
Doug Padilla (1:54 PM)
Thornton would be considered the favorite for the role. He said he has no problem having to prove himself again. Without the presence of Sale, who could be capable of some special things, we're probably talking about Thornton as the closer right now.
ross (lagrange)
do you thinks bacon will get off to a better start this year and if not does his deffense keep him in the lineup
Doug Padilla (1:56 PM)
Gordon Beckham looks comfortable so far. It looks as if his offensive struggles taught him a lot last year. He's not going to over-think things this year and will just let his talet shine thorugh like it did in the 2nd half last year. Also, he will limit outside distractions in 2011 like appearances and media requests. Not a bad idea.
Johan (Scottsdale)
Do you recommend any other spring training stadiums to watch the Sox at aside from Camelback Ranch?
Doug Padilla (1:59 PM)
Drove past the new park in Scottsdale for the D-backs and Rockies and it certainly looks impressive. The Giants have a good atmosphere in Scottsdale but good luck getting tickets. Surprise and Peoria are generic parks, but Peoria has a lot of resuatrants nearby, including one of the best all time fast food spots In-N-Out.
Ryan (Crystal Lake)
Who is in the 2 spot in this lineup?
Doug Padilla (2:00 PM)
Beckham for now. Alexei could get some chances there.
Craig (Kansas)
Who is going to be our number 5 starter, with Buehrle, peavy if healthy, Danks and Floyd holding the first four.
Doug Padilla (2:06 PM)
If Peavy misses the April 10 fifth-starter opening, Tony Pena could be the guy. Lucas Harrell has a chance depending on what he does in the spring. The fifth spot will only be needed once before April 20 so Pena could take that one giving Peavy some extra time to get ready.
Ron (WV)
Won't the Sox be better off with Sale in the rotation and Thornton closing?
Doug Padilla (2:08 PM)
Perhaps in the long run. But the team doesn't want to use a young guy like Sale in multiple roles this year. They know a bullpen role will be there all year so they're going to put him in it. It's hard on anybody to go back and forth, much less a 22-year-old with two months of big-league experience.
Ryan (Crystal Lake)
Is it me or are people looking over Edwin Jackson? Cooper really got him going after the trade.
Doug Padilla (2:10 PM)
If Jackson continues to do what he did at the end of last year, the White Sox will be in good shape. They will watch him closely and start out with the same plan they had when he arrived in Chicago. Just saw him throw briefly yesterday for the first time so it's hard to say how he looks, but he was a bit wild at times.
JJ (Aurora)
Does Lastings Miilidge make the major league roster, or are we stuck with another year from guys like Brent Lillibridge?
Doug Padilla (2:12 PM)
Lastings Milledge is the favorite for the fourth outfield role, but the Sox staff doesn't know much about him so he will have to show it first hand in spring training.
Jeremy (Quincy)
Why do the Sox and so many Sox fans want to see Sale start so badly? It seems as though every other scout in baseball says he's built for the bullpen. Yes, starters are worth more than relievers. But no pitcher is worth anything with a blown-out elbow.
Doug Padilla (2:14 PM)
Sale wil be a starter eventually. He has been promised that by the White Sox. He has some incredible stuff and if he can use that for seven or eight innings an outing he could be dominating. They are taking baby steps for now.
Tony (Champaign)
Wait why did you not say Edwin Jackson for the 5th starter?
Doug Padilla (2:16 PM)
Everybody keeps asking about Jackson. I must have missed something earlier. The rotation is Buehrle, Danks, Floyd and Jackson. Pena is the favorite to assume Peavy's role for the short term.
John (Naperville)
Does Viciedo make the roster out of spring training? I know they have been trying him out at 1st, 3rd, and RF, but is there realistically any room for him on the roster with guys like Millidge, Lillibridge, and De Aza competing as well, plus guys like Vizquel already penciled in on the roster?
Doug Padilla (2:17 PM)
Viciedo is a tough call. Having him on the bench could hurt his development. They would rather he get 400 at-bats at Triple-A
Doug Padilla (2:19 PM)
Good questions. Let's do it again soon.

When: 11am, Wednesday 16 March 2016
Where: Senate Courtyard, Parliament House Canberra
Who: Adrian Pisarski, National Shelter Executive Officer
Key points:
Housing policy peak National Shelter is challenging all federal Members of Parliament and Senators to be bold in the face of pressure from vested interests and commit to real tax reform and a fairer housing system.
National Shelter members from across Australia have converged on Canberra to meet with MPs and Senators to urge them to put the wellbeing of ordinary families in their electorates first.
"For the past few weeks we've all been subjected to a scare campaign of outlandish claims that reforming negative gearing and the capital gains tax discount will implode the Australian housing market," said Adrian Pisarski, National Shelter Executive Officer.
"What's really scary is that our home ownership rate is already waning, rent prices are really hurting people, and more than 100,000 Australians are homeless on any given night.
"Almost half of houses sold go to investors who, encouraged by multiple generous tax breaks, push up prices for everyone.
"We have to ask ourselves if we're willing to be a nation of renters. And if we're willing to accept that death of the great Australian dream, what are we going to do about households paying crippling rents?
Last year National Shelter, in partnership with Community Sector Banking and SGS Economics, launched Australia's first comprehensive rental affordability index. The Index showed that some families were forced to pay as much as 65% of their income to secure rental housing.
"Governments can't have it both ways. You can't distort the market for the sake of investors, and leave tenants to carry the can. The rental market can be a brutal place to raise a family and we are locking generations out of ownership.
"We want sensible reform with all party support to fix housing affordability. After all, we're taking about nothing less than the homes in which we live our lives".
Spokesperson for Homelessness Australia Joanna Siejka added "We need every politician in Australia to understand homelessness and help our services to end it. There is no reason Australia can't solve this issue if we put our mind to it."
For Rental Affordability Index interactive maps: http://www.sgsep.com.au/maps/RAI.html
Australia's first ever Rental Affordability Index reveals the depth and extremity of housing stress faced by renters in the current market. Both low income and moderate income households suffer poverty due to high rental costs.
Housing stress occurs when households pay 30% of income or more on rent. Low income households are required to pay around 65% of income on rent to access a tenancy. This means that rents are extremely unaffordable.
The Rental Affordability Index has been created by National Shelter, Community Sector Banking and SGS Economics & Planning. It will be released on a quarterly basis.
Low income households – according to the report – are in a dire situation, single income households are the worst off and rent costs are now locking low and moderate income households out of inner cities. The report gives a blow by blow account of rental affordability in Australia's major cities.
Media Release 1 October 2015
Peak body National Shelter calls on the mini summit to tackle housing affordability including putting reforms to negative gearing and capital gains tax exemptions, previously ruled out, back on the table.
Executive Officer Adrian Pisarski said "If Prime Minister Turnbull's mini summit is intent on addressing reform then changing tax settings to reduce house price inflation must be among the issues to be addressed."
We currently have a tax system which inflates the market by pitting investors against would be owner occupiers for the same properties but providing the wrong incentives around affordable housing according to National Shelter.
"Ultimately renters become the fall guy in house price inflation. Purchasers have low interest rates as a compensation, investors get tax relief, but rents have consistently outstripped inflation and renters have no compensating fallback.
"Housing is the largest single household cost and current settings push people to outer areas away from jobs, education and another opportunities. Low income households then face long commutes, expensive transport costs and experience social and economic exclusion.
"Tax reform can do more to counter the high cost of housing and must be coupled to a new affordable housing supply strategy to improve the economic and social participation of low income households and put a break on rising homelessness.
"If the mini summit is fair dinkum then reforming negative gearing and CGT exemptions must be back on the table despite the Abbott government having ruled them out." Mr Pisarski concluded.
The peak housing advocacy organisation for low income Australians, National Shelter, today expressed deep concern that neither major party has addressed the greatest cause of financial hardship for very many Australian households – the lack of affordable housing.
"We are half way through the election campaign, and despite repeated calls across the community, neither Labor nor the Coalition have offered any direct affordable housing policies", said National Shelter Chair, Adam Farrar."There have been two leaders' debates; but a deafening silence on one of Australia's largest policy challenges."
"We have heard repeated talk of 'cost of living pressures' in this campaign. But housing is the largest item of expenditure in the budgets of all Australian households, and low income households pay a third more of their income on housing than high income earners."
"With rents rising faster than incomes over the past decade, it is hard to take election talk of concern over living costs seriously without policies on housing affordability from either major party."There is still time for the major parties to announce their housing polices.
National Shelter calls on the major parties to make the following five commitments that would make a real difference to low and moderate income Australians:
Less than a year ago National Shelter released its full housing policy priorities statement, 'Meeting housing challenges'. In that policy National Shelter encouraged all sides of politics to agree to address Australia's housing challenges and to develop a National Housing Strategy.
At this point in the election campaign, it is time for the parties to take up that challenge.

Just like the athletes competing at Wimbledon, who are ordered to wear all white, tennis fan the Duchess of Cambridge made an appropriate choice for her day in the sunshine at the grassy courts with husband William on Wednesday.
Kate, 32, wore the same summery dress by Zimmermann last seen on the beach in Australia in April, as she and William, 32, in a suit and tie, headed to the grand slam event to watch Brit favorite and reigning champion Andy Murray.
Princess Beatrice and her boyfriend Dave Clark were also in the crowd.
The royal presence, however, didn't bring any luck to fellow Brit Murray, who lost in straight sets to Grigor Dimitrov.
Kate, who grew up playing tennis often against her father, is a passionate fan of the game. The couple played each other at St. Andrews University when they first met and still play together today – they even have a court at their country home Anmer Hall.
Her parents, Mike and Carole Middleton, and siblings, Pippa and James Middleton, also attended matches during Wimbledon's earlier rounds.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Dec 01st, 1987
Running Time: 80
Directors: John T Bone, John T. Bone
Company: Western Visuals
Cast: Frank James, Ron Jeremy, Tom Byron, Samantha Strong, Erica Boyer
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Samantha Strong sells she-toys at her sex shop. Now that I got my cleverness out of the way, let me tell you about this foray into the wonderful world of dildos. It seems that one of her customers has recently lost a husband but gained big bucks as a result. She is seeking pleasure but not particularly interested in having a man to go with it. So Samantha shows her a series of "toys" and each has a sidebar sex scene for us to watch. A great amount of this feature's running time is spent in the demonstration of various types of prosthesis, if you get my drift.
I really can't make up my mind as to whether the sex scenes not involving Samantha were shot for this feature or scenes from the other productions. In any case, she is a gorgeous woman who can't act a lick.
So if you haven't anything to do and you like more girl-girl than straight stuff, you might want to rent Toys 4 Us.

If anyone can help me with this, I would really appreciate it!
I upgraded from WP v.2.0 to v.2.0.4 and since then, any theme I install that has a page for theme options, when clicked, I get a white screen that says simply:
"Cannot load functions.php."
I've checked the permissions and reinstalled the functions.php file. This happens on more than one theme so I'm hesitant to assume it's a theme programming error. These very same themes worked fine before the upgrade. To be sure, i've even downloaded the newest versions of the themes, installed and activated them, but to no avail.
has anyone else run into this problem?
Also, after the upgrade the Widgets plugin won't load either. It works fine and the already activated themes work fine, until I want to, you know, actually modify them or set up new ones.

"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
As the shape of the digital comics world emerges from the haze of uncertainty, readers are saying one thing loud and clear: "I want to own my digital comics." And most publishers are sidestepping the whole issue by saying "We will gladly sell you a license to read our digital comics" and going no further.
So when Viz Media reps unveiled their SuBLime line of Boys Love (yaoi) manga at Yaoi-Con on Saturday, they made manga history: They will be publishing some titles digitally in a download-to-own format, according to manga blogger Deb Aoki, who was tweeting from the panel. The licenses will be worldwide, not restricted to the U.S. and Canada like Viz's other digital releases. What's more, the downloads will be PDFs, which can be read on a Kindle, Nook or iOS device as well as pretty much any computer.
That's right: DRM-free downloadable comics, available worldwide. And the cover price on these e-books is a very reasonable $5.99.
Publishing | Heidi MacDonald and Tom Spurgeon offer commentary and context regarding last week's layoffs by Marvel. [The Beat, Comics Reporter]
Conventions | San Diego City Council President Tony Young and Comic-Con International staff are working together on a "marquee event" at Balboa Park that around the time of Comic Con. While convention organizers are interested in a Balboa Park event, they don't support Yong's original proposal, a nationally televised parade that would kick off or end the con, saying that the logistics, traffic and crowding would be problematic. [Sign On San Diego]
Conventions | Ohio State University's student newspaper covers this past weekend's Mid-Ohio Con. [The Lantern]
Yaoi-Con, subtitled "A Celebration of Male Beauty & Passion in Anime & Manga," is an opportunity for yaoi enthusiasts to get together without distractions (unlike, say, New York Comic-Con, where you have to coexist with video games, movies, cars, and a bunch of comics you really don't care about). This weekend, a couple thousand yaoi fans will crowd into the San Francisco Airport Marriott Hotel to enjoy panels, guest appearances, a scavenger hunt, and yaoi-specific events like Bishie Pictionary and a Bishounen Auction (one of the more controversial aspects of Yaoi-Con).
It says something about the importance of this event that Viz Media (the largest manga publisher in the U.S.) opted to launch its new yaoi manga imprint at Yaoi-Con rather than at NYCC. Digital Manga, which skipped NYCC altogether (as they have for the past few years) will also be there. Guests at this year's con include Japanese manga creator Fusanosuke Inariya (Maiden Rose) and American artist Jo Chen, who draws yaoi doujinshi (fan comics) when she isn't working on Buffy, Runaways, and Thor. Chen's doujinshi In These Words has been picked up by the Japanese publisher Libre and will run in their magazine Be Boy Gold.
This year marks the tenth anniversary of Yaoi-Con, and while it is much smaller than most anime cons (with attendance that stays in the four digits), it has become well established as one of the moveable feasts of the manga lover's year. And while I have never been, I have a feeling that Yaoi-Con is the ideal con, the one place where everyone in the room has something in common—and it's something the rest of the world knows nothing about.

Wrong Cemetery name
I'm sorry; I did mean Rincon Cemetery? There is a grave that is marked Ochoa, although, I was wondering if there is another name painted before Ochoa and if there is a possibility that it is still readable? I am wondering if you are able to clarify the name on the grave marker? #22385712
Thank you,

Hello, first let me say thank you for creating this memorial. Ive been searching for my father for many years the last time I saw him I had to be around two or three years old that would of been in 1976 or 1977. I was told today that this might be him and totally heart broken if this is.Do you know if there is any more information that I can get regarding this.

2015 is going to be a banner year for #TXCX, that is if new TXBRA Cyclocross Coordinator, Melanie Black, has anything to do with it.
Melanie has more than 15 years of experience running races as she and her husband, Will, were big parts of the Houston and Asheville, NC scenes. Plus, she's a bad-ass Cat 1 Mountain Bike / Cat 2 Road / Cat 1 CX racer, and more importantly a proud mom and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA: she puts people to sleep for surgery).
The role of CX Coordinator for TXBRA is to help establish the schedule, to ensure the quality of our races and to act as a liaison between riders and promoters. As you can imagine, satisfaction for all groups is no easy task with so many people bringing their own needs, desires and agendas. And the role is all volunteer.
We sat down with Mel to ask her what's in store for this upcoming season.
Thanks for taking the time for a few questions. Let's start with the obvious change – Regional and Elite Races. Over the past few years we've toyed with the idea of regional events and we've seen they are viable. How do these two classifications work?
Looking at the numbers from last year's races, we realized that many cross racers did not travel outside their geographical area to race. Having an official regional race series separate from the Elite race series is away to grow the sport from the roots. The idea for regional races is to have low key, fun regional events that cater to the first timer, beginner racer, or a family that races but can't travel as much. Continue Reading…

Bossalino Mode Lokz and Greg-G aka The General are key members of the production team as Scrills holds forth on his life experiences and personal philosophy. On one song he recalls surviving his hard-knocks life as a teenager on the street ("I got my jaw broken, y'all, when I was just 17. I had them wires on 24/7, G, but you still saw me on the block hustling and grinding"). Others describe his current Alpha Male status. Scrills and his crew distinguish themselves with "The Story." an imaginative and well-crafted piece heartfelt ode to a player's one true love: money. They say then money can't buy happiness, then I'll be satisfied with a mansion and a Benz ...smashin through the wind with a mouthful of gems, give me a billion dollars, I don't need no friends." In short, Scrills is representing Hawaii well. "

The 38-year-old said Barnsley need "possibly eight or nine" more wins from their remaining 19 matches to survive another relegation battle after being officially unveiled as the club's fifth manager in the last eight years at Oakwell on Tuesday afternoon.
The Tykes sacked predecessor Keith Hill at the end of last month after a run of one win in 14 games and were turned down by Sean O'Driscoll and then Terry Butcher as they searched for a new manager to keep the club in the second tier.
Flitcroft was initially reluctant to take on the role of caretaker through loyalty to Hill, whom he worked with for five years at Rochdale before the pair moved to Barnsley in June 2011.
After a defeat at Peterborough in his first game in temporary charge, an FA Cup win over Burnley and the weekend derby defeat of Leeds convinced the Oakwell board to give Flitcroft his first job as manager.
When asked how many games Barnsley must win between now and the end of the season, Flitcroft replied: "Possibly eight or nine.
"I've reiterated to the players this is one game at a time. It's one training session at a time. We're instilling good habits and a winning mentality but there must be a calmness. We can't be rash.
"I'm absolutely delighted. As soon as the Leeds game was over we started processing things. I got the call from the directors that they wanted me to carry on and start this new adventure.
"It's really exciting. A Championship opportunity in my first management job is something that you dream about and it's something I'm in now.
"I can't wait to continue the work I've already started."

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
By subdomain you probably mean:
This is a two-part process. First, in your DNS, create the webmail host in the domain.com domain. This should be an A record that points to the IP of server1.
Second, configure the webserver on server1 to respond to requests for hostname
Now, browsing to http://webmail.domain.com/ should show the webmail interface.
Two possible approaches:
Either one or implementing both (your choice) will do what you described.

"If an examiner doesn't like you, it's very easy for him to fail you," said Sergei Kanayev, chairman of the Moscow-based Federation of Car Owners.
Veteran driving instructors say applicants are routinely failed over technicalities and that many of their students end up paying despite being competent drivers. In most cases, police officers don't have to ask explicitly for a bribe. Their behavior during the test and advice to "come better prepared" are universally taken as a hint that money will have to be paid.
Kanayev estimates that 50 percent of Russians who fail the driving test end up paying a bribe to get their license. No figures are available largely because of the reluctance of people to admit to having bribed the police.
The traffic police failed to respond to requests for comment over a period of several weeks. Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliyev, who commands Russia's police force, last year lauded some regional police officials for eradicating corruption, but acknowledged that it remains a problem in most regions.
Veselova's family and friends have been trying to persuade her to stop wasting time and pay the bribe.
Finding someone to "arrange" a license isn't difficult. Many drivers are happy to pass on the contacts of an intermediary who will make such arrangements, and thus spare the candidate from directly bribing the police officer. The service typically costs from 10,000 to 15,000 rubles ($330 to $500).
Veselova said a friend offered to arrange for her to pass the driving test in exchange for two bottles of cognac, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"I'm a believer in God. And this would mean deception," Veselova said. "I'm raising a child. How would I then tell her that she must always be honest and act honestly?"
Newspapers are full of reports of policemen arrested on charges of corruption. Last year, the head of the exams department and five other employees of a police station in Moscow were fired for "issuing driver's licenses for bribes." But the practice continues.
The health care and education systems are also rife with bribery.
For instance, bribes are routinely given to ambulance staff to take patients to better hospitals or to move a patient up on the waiting list for a needed operation. Relatives know that by slipping a few notes to a nurse, they may be able to assure their loved one gets better care.
Public schools are free, but some are more sought-after than others. Parents across Russia complain that directors of desirable schools will state that they are at capacity, then quickly hint that a place might be found if the parents were to make a contribution or donate equipment.
Universities are among the top offenders. One of Russia's most prestigious medical schools, the Pirogov Medical University in Moscow, was rocked by a scandal last summer when it was found to be selling about 500 spots that should have gone for free to those who scored the highest on admission exams.
Putin has responded to the protests by pledging to eliminate incentives for officials to take bribes. But as testament to the growing willingness to challenge Putin authority, bloggers have circulated a list of his vows to fight corruption dating back as far as 2000, none of which has had any notable effect.
"Corruption in Russia is not an isolated problem, but a deep-rooted system," said Georgy Satarov, the head of Indem and one of the leading Russian experts on graft.
After failing to pass the driving test within a three-month period, Veselova had to start the whole process over again. She recently resumed the effort and has again passed the written exam and the parking test.
With the driving test still ahead, she is more determined than ever not to pay a bribe.
"They got me so angry," Veselova said. "We pay our taxes, so why do I have to go and bow down to them?"

Stroke Health Center
Friends of Stroke Victims Reluctant to Call 911
May 13, 2010 -- Stroke victims need immediate emergency attention, but a new study shows that most people who realize stroke warning signs are occurring in a friend or family member may not call 911, thereby delaying potentially lifesaving treatment.
This is alarming, Michigan researchers suggest, because people who suffer strokes need immediate assessment and treatment.
But people who would call 911 if they thought a friend or loved one was having a heart attack don't seem to realize that strokes are deadly, too, the researchers write; strokes are the No. 3 killer in the U.S.
Stroke victims who are candidates for the clot-busting drug called tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) may receive this treatment if they get to a hospital within three hours (and in some select cases up to 4.5 hours) of the time the first warning signs show up.
"Calling 911 gets you to the hospital fast and allows the paramedics to communicate with the hospital so staff are prepared for your arrival," says study researcher Chris Fussman, MS, an epidemiologist with the Michigan Department of Community Health in Lansing, in a news release.
Fussman says the study's finding "emphasizes the critical roles that symptom recognition and the calling of 911 have in reducing delays in hospital arrival to receive urgent stroke treatment."
Fussman and a team of researchers analyzed the results of a survey of more than 4,800 people in Michigan and found that only a fraction would call 911 if they recognized symptoms enough to deduce that someone was having a stroke.
The study is published in the May issue of Stroke: Journal of the American Heart Association.
The purpose of the survey was to assess whether people knew when to call for an ambulance when stroke symptoms are observed. Well-known signs of stroke include sudden slurred speech, sudden numbness on one side of the body, or sudden blurry vision.
Reacting to Stroke Symptoms in a Friend or Relative
People in the study were asked to report their first reactions to five hypothetical situations:
- Noticing sudden slurred speech
- Noticing sudden numbness on one side of a person's body
- Sudden blurry vision
- High fever
- An injured leg

Reviews for South Jersey Against Aids Inc Dba South Jersey Aids Alliance
SJAA does incredible work in the South Jersey community, serving some of those most in need in the absence of any significant government or large agency commitments. They make a little bit go a long ways and are truly focused on client outcomes and quality of life, offering some services that are not readily available elsewhere. From their Oasis drop in center in Atlantic city to prison counseling & services, nutritional and medication support and preventive services, this organization has proven a safe harbor to many in need, especially those afflicted with or at risk of infection with HIV. As a volunteer board member, I am very selective of those organizations to which I can spread my limited availability. Based on the quality of this agency's work, the dedication and professionalism of its staff, and the dependence of the community they serve, I can say that this is the most effective agency with whom I have served.

Have more funding available to further their work.
This organization is dedicated to preventing the spread of AIDS thru education. It also helps those and the family members who have been afflicted with this dreaded disease. I Alliance is an exception in that just about every dollar raised is put back into the community, with very little going to administrative costs.

Skip to comments.Nevada students receive class credit for volunteering for the Obama campaign
Posted on 02/22/2012 1:33:11 PM PST by NevadaPolicyResearchInstitute
Obama re-election campaign co-chair uses her position as a public school counselor to steer students into volunteering for the Obama campaign in order to earn class credit.
(Excerpt) Read more at writeonnevada.com ...
I assume they get credit for helping unions picket too... not that our schools are biased bigoted leftist organizations...
You'd get the same credit volunteering for a Republican or other candidate as well.
This is not a crime or an abuse of power and the local GOP chair should be trying to recruit some students who need to get the credit as well.
This is not a crime or an abuse of power and the local GOP chair should be trying to recruit some students who need to get the credit as well.
It most certainly is an abuse of office and should be a crime if it is not. Regardless of the Political Party.
One of the best ways for students to learn about the American political system is to participate in it. Nothing beats real life experience.
I campaigned for Reagan in both '76 and '80 as a high school student.
The problem is the stupid party (GOP) that is unaware or can't figure out how to utilize student volunteers.
Good grief BD! Thanks for the ping.
Loretta Harper (right)
RT @shanhart: "He needs another four years, get busy!" -Loretta Harper @ofa_nv #sumorg11
Loretta Harper works at Desert Pines High School
Harper, who makes $74,000 a year plus benefits, plans to expand outreach efforts like this nationwide now that shes a co-chair of Obamas re-election campaign
BarackObama: RT @OFA_NV: Loretta Harper started as a volunteer in 2008, now she's co-chair of our campaign in NV
UPDATE: Victor has now spoken with Loretta Harper and has updated his post to reflect the following:
The students actually got class credit in 2008, and not merely extra credit as the Las Vegas Review-Journal had claimed. The headline of this post has been changed accordingly.
Harper admits she approached children (as well as vice versa) about volunteering for Obama. She claims she would also give credit to students for volunteering for Republicans but no students have asked her about that. (Gee, I wonder why not? Could it have anything to do with her very public pro-Obama activism? Nah, that couldnt be it.)
She is indeed planning to have students volunteer for Obama for class credit again this year
Her students call her Mrs. Harper, dedicated activist and a devout Obama supporter from day 1.
As a member of the Clark County Education Association she was elected to the Nevada State Association Board of Directors where she advocates for a quality education for all students in Nevada. She spent her Spring Break in 2011 at the Nevada Legislature lobbying 6 Republican and 19 Democratic Legislators on education funding.
Can Republicans at least take a lesson in this, and get more attractive people to volunteer for the national campaign...
Some that are better looking (easier on the eyes) than in post #9???
Just a suggestion...
The government should not be making working to support the government (Reupublican or Democrat) a criterion of advancing in school. How about teaching them math or science. Kids are illiterate today because government schools spend too much time teaching kids how to protest, support political causes etc
And, if Obama doesn't run [my bet - mark this eMail] or he loses - you FAIL!
In fact you FAIL the whole school year!
'cause you are already failing the skill to make intelligent decisions effecting your LIFE! and your childrens.
Loretta Harper
That's a man, baby.
Public funds are political funds, and political funds are spent politically.
Are schools political places? Yes, more and more.
Here locally there's a raquet called, "service learning" -students get credit for whoring themselves out to local liberal charities —getting people on the dole, signing them up for housing, and so on.
Is it a public college that does this? YEP...!
The University system is NOT out to help students —it's out to help the Welfare State.
would be to study the Constitution. Stay in School...dont be a fool...
Well I guess it's okay to get paid one way or another so where do I sign up on the R side?
We got to get with the game.
She wouldn't comment on her own promotion of a political position and student activism as part of the school curriculum.
I asked if there was a program offered for students to support opposition candidates. She stated that if students requested to assist with Republican campaigns they would be provided with the appropriate phone numbers. Of course, no conservative political options are automatically offered.
As I pressed her further, asking how it is a service to the community to reelect a man who is opposed to the U.S. constitution. She said that was only my opinion. When I quoted Obama's own words about the constitution being a deeply flawed document, etc. she became frustrated and repeated the previous answer. I asked about conflict of interest, she would not answer but continued with the aforementioned talking point, then said she was ending the call and hung up.
In other words, the typical "debate" with a lefty.
After those pics there has to be a RUSH-ism somewhere.
Please read kcvl's comment #12, this was obviously political use of kids for promoting Obama.
Find out who the brown shirts are and ridicule them and their commie parents. That will take the cool out of it real quick.

Not fun.
I'm new to my management role and having people report to me. I've had to talk to my one employee a few times about productivity. I refuse to feel bad that a grown adult is not pulling their weight. I don't go in all negative, but I do make it clear that she has certain goals to meet weekly and that if she doesn't remain consistent or higher, I'll need to replace her. She's been on her best behaviour the past few weeks.
Bent, not broken
I don't like doing them or giving them. I prefer to talk in person, but it's part of the process. Even though it takes longer, I try to do it in two phases - first pass to get my thoughts out, and a 2nd pass to edit my comments later - perhaps tone back or be stronger in what is written.
& Julia 3/02
& Kristen 7/04
I will be getting back the employee comments this morning, see how that goes. Atleast it is done. It was both a written appraisal which we then discussed each section and I went over it beforehand so I knew my main points, but still afterwards you always think of other things.
Thanks ladies.

Some have said it runs small- I'd recommend ordering the same size you usually wear. It may run just a tad small but not a full size off. I like the fit. I wasn't expecting the white contrast band on the inside of the placket and collar, though. They are on the inside but unless you wear it buttoned all the way to the top, they will show. I feel this makes the appearance more casual which may be preferable to some. For me it was simply unexpected.
runs small
I picked this shirt up on sale for $7 in store. It's a great shirt. The fit is very flattering and feminine. I have washed it a few times and it has retained its color. Some complain of shrinking in the wash....my suggestion is to not dry cottons with a high heat setting. Hang it up to dry :)
I love these shirts! They are so comfortable, and look very nice on. I love to put one of these shirts on with a pair of tan or black pants.......and off to work I go.......comfortable! I have this shirt in 3 colors, getting ready to order the 4th!!!
This is a great shirt. It's lightweight and has a noticeable slimming effect. Like everyone else here said, it's a great shirt. Easily recommended.
Very slimming styling. Looks good and fits well. I have it in black and I am now going to buy more colors.
I really like this shirt. It is light weight and has a slimming effect. The price was also good.
good fit, nice fabric, washes well, good price

Perdue open to broader Indian casino gambling
Published: Tuesday, September 1, 2009 at 10:20 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, September 1, 2009 at 10:20 a.m.
WHITTIER, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue says the state hasn't ruled out Las Vegas-style card games at a Cherokee Indian casino in the Great Smoky Mountains.
The Asheville Citizen-Times reported Tuesday that Perdue said state officials and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians have no negotiations under way to expand gambling at the 11-year-old casino. Perdue says working out a state budget and dealing with the recession have taken priority since she took office in January.
The tribe has long sought state approval for live gambling at the Harrah's Cherokee Casino, which now offers video gambling machines and digital blackjack with a live dealer.
Federal law gives governors the authority to negotiate gambling agreements with tribes.

Crosstalk Home
Show Information
Air Date: August 27, 2012
Host: Vic Eliason
Listen: MP3 | Order
This edition of Crosstalk began as Vic reminded listeners about a play that was set to begin later this month in Delafield, Wisconsin, called: The Bible—The Complete Word of God (Abridged). This play, produced by the Phantom Cicada Theatre Company, makes a mockery of God as it trivializes and attempts to find humor in numerous aspects of the Bible.
Since the Crosstalk broadcast that discussed this topic aired on August 9th, many listeners made their voices heard and the State of Wisconsin took responsible action and revoked the use of Lapham Peak State Park for this performance. This decision underscores the importance of the voice of the average Christian and the impact that can be made for Christ when free speech is utilized in a godly fashion.
More Information:
To call the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and thank them for not allowing this play to take place on state property, call 1-888-936-7463.
