- Anodea Judith
How You Can Overcome the Obstacles to Creating a Better Life and World -- with Ease
We all have dreams for our lives and for a better world. Making those dreams really happen, however, can be a big challenge.
Lack of time, money and skills often get in the way. But the deeper issue is that most of us have never been trained in how to manifest our important plans and dreams -- and we weren't given the tools to clear the obstacles that prevent us from creating what we truly want in life.
Too often, then, we aren't able to manifest effectively, which leads to stress or failure. We then turn away from our deeper calling -- whether it's publishing a book, starting a new business, living in a foreign country, finishing a project or serving the world.
World-renowned chakra expert Anodea Judith is here to help you change that. She offers you a clear, easy and exciting roadmap -- and a step-by-step plan to clear the obstacles and catapult you into the world of co-creating with Spirit and with others in your life.
A Powerful Roadmap to Keep You on Track and in Alignment with Spirit
Using the powerful "technology" of the Chakra System, accessible through your own body and psyche, each week Anodea will guide you in a process from dream to reality through the downward current through the chakras. Each week there will be specific exercises and practices to strengthen each area and keep you on track with your life vision.
If you know you're ready to create a better life and world with ease, effectiveness and ecstasy, then click here to register for this digital download course! Or keep reading for more details.
Why This Course is Different Than Other Manifesting Courses
While there are many manifestation-type courses, workshops and books available, most of them offer more simplistic formulas that focus on just one aspect of your being. This course offers you an integrated, holistic approach that allows you to harness the powers and capacities you have within each part of yourself.
It offers you a step-by-step, time-tested template for transformation to bring yourself back into wholeness. Plus, Anodea has been teaching this class for ten years with remarkable results - keep reading for some of her glowing student reviews.
With Manifesting through the Chakras, you'll gain the building blocks for manifesting based on your inner calling, and you'll gain lifelong tools for removing the stumbling blocks along the way. It will set your life on fire, enabling you to create clear results for any project or vision you wish to create.
The Chakra Map: How Manifesting Your Dreams Really Works
Most people think of the Chakra System as an upwardly mobile map for ascending to higher levels of transcendence, seeking the jewel of the crown chakra at the top.
Few people realize that in the ancient texts, the Chakra System also represents a process for condensing consciousness into the many levels of manifestation that we experience as reality. This descending current of consciousness takes us back down to earth and brings our dreams into reality.
Whether your dream is personal or global, a business or a community, this course will help you condense and clarify your ideas and keep you on track in a step-by-step process for making your visions become real. You can then apply these steps to anything you want to create, alone or with others.
It Starts with Your Ideas...
We begin in consciousness with a conception of an idea (crown chakra) and focus our intentions into a clear vision (brow chakra), then learn to communicate that vision effectively (throat chakra). This brings us into the realm of relationship, service and co-creation (heart chakra).
By focusing our will (power chakra), we find the right connections, movement, passion and balance (sacral chakra), and take specific grounded actions in the physical world to bring our projects to completion (root chakra), step by step.
At this time on the planet we are being asked, not only to seek liberation and transcendence, but also to bring the divine down into us and out through our actions, to become effective change agents... for co-creating Heaven on Earth.
It's time, don't you think, to fully ignite your passion and create the life you've been imagining for yourself and for our world. Let Anodea Judith be your guide for this transformative journey!

with Devaa Haley Mitchell, Inspiring Women Summit Founder & Co-Host
It happens every day in nature. You see colorful flowers radiating their beauty and fragrance into the world. The hummingbirds and bees are attracted and naturally come to pollinate the flowers. Now, these flowers clearly are not sending out email campaigns! No one has signed up for their e-newsletter. They rarely do public speaking. And yet they are attracting the attention, admiration and the collaborative relationships they want. What can you learn from nature and apply to your own life?
Beauty, joy and pleasure are magnetic. And when you tap into your wellspring of joy, you can use that energy to manifest with grace and ease -- feminine style. No more pushing to "make it happen." No more endless late nights of working, working, working to create your life's work. Let go of the long TO DO lists and try on a new possibility. Let women's transformational guide Devaa Haley Mitchell show you how to:
- Tap into your intuitive left brain to manifest with grace and ease in your own life -- whether you're a man or a woman!
- Generate a "rampage of appreciation" -- a critical key to this process
- Use the feminine moon cycle as a tool for bringing your visions into 3D reality

The workshop was both informative and enlightening."

I see you stumble and crawl wanting more
As you see me go
But my time is done
I had fun playing with you
Now I go search someone stupid like you
As I keep playing
I break more hearts
I know I had been bad
But what can you do about that?
The flirting, kissing amd touching
were nothing but fake
I'm sorry that you found out late
that it was all a big mistake
I laugh at you for falling for me
But you should have known
All I wanted is to be pleased

Broken Arrow, Okla., City Manager Thom Moton says he aims to make the budget process similar to personal budgeting by planning based on how much each department can expect to have, instead of what it wants.

Linda Shaw, 37, said she recognised the feet as Miss Allan's, and what she saw of the man's naked buttocks appeared to resemble Mr Terre-Blanche.
She said she had discussed sex and Mr Terre-Blanche with Miss Allan. 'She said he was a great lay but a little heavy,' Miss Shaw added. Miss Allan, 40, who now lives at Hampton Court, Surrey, is suing Channel 4 Television over the film The Leader, His Driver and the Driver's Wife, which she claims portrayed her as a 'lady of easy virtue' who slept with Mr Terre-Blanche.
Channel 4 says it never suggested an affair, but argues that such an allegation, although never made, would be justified because Miss Allan did have an affair with Mr Terre-Blanche, who is married with a daughter.
Miss Shaw, said she first met Miss Allan in 1981. Miss Allan had confided in her about her crumbling marriage, which ended after two years in 1984. While Miss Allan was still living with her husband, the two women used to go out to restaurants and bars and often came home late, sometimes not until 4am.
She said Miss Allan had made it fairly clear to her that she would not be happy to live under a black government in South Africa and would sometimes call black people kaffirs.
Miss Shaw told the court of accompanying Miss Allan to a rally of the neo-Nazi AWB party, when Mr Terre-Blanche had appeared to be addressing the whole meeting to Miss Allan, who was sitting in the front row.
One night she had woken at 3am to find a large man in khaki in their flat. He said that he had been sent up by Miss Allan to have sexual intercourse with her because she liked sex very much. She screamed, and got rid of the man. Later she heard stamping of feet passing her bedroom, followed by an 'incredible noise' which sounded as if all the electrical appliances in Miss Allen's room had been turned on. Miss Shaw said: 'I was absolutely petrified. I thought they were maybe hurting Jani and using the noise to cover up the sound of her screams. I crept along and tried calling her name. There was no response. I tried knocking. There was no response. I turned the handle and it was locked. So I looked through the keyhole.' She could see Miss Allan's naked feet flat on the floor with her knees up and apart. She could recognise the feet because her flatmate was neurotic about them and was always asking for reassurance that they were not ugly.
George Carman QC, for Channel 4, asked her: 'You said you saw a bottom. What colour?'
Miss Shaw replied: 'White. It was a large bottom on top of Jani, rising up and down. I assumed they were having sex.'
She said she had never seen Mr Terre-Blanche naked, but from what she had seen of him clothed she thought the bottom she saw was the right size and shape. She had seen the toes of boots on either side, which she took to be those of bodyguards.
When she spoke to her flatmate the following day, Miss Allan had said: 'Sweetie, you've had a nightmare.'
About this time, Miss Shaw said, 'Jani thought she would be the new first lady of South Africa when Terre-Blanche took over as president or whatever. She was buying clothes she thought would be appropriate to that. Very classical Italian clothes.'
On Miss Allan's birthday in September 1988, the two women had talked for hours and drank 'copious' amounts of alcohol. At midnight, after receiving a phone call, Miss Allan drove them in her red Lancia to Krugersdorp where the met Mr Terre-Blanche, who was also very drunk.
After half an hour embracing and cuddling Mr Terre-Blanche, Miss Allan drove them all back to Johannesburg. When they arrived at about 4am, Miss Allan fell over and could not get up again, the court was told.
Miss Shaw said that in November 1988, Miss Allan had told her the AWB planned to kill both women because they knew about the affair with Mr Terre- Blanche, and it could be damaging to the movement.
She decided to leave the country when some dead white roses were sent to Miss Allan's flat.
Miss Shaw said she was in Hong Kong visiting her family when she saw a television news item about the incident at the Paardekraal monument in December 1988, when Miss Allan was found with Mr Terre- Blanche. When she returned to South Africa in mid-January 1989, Miss Allan would not open the door to her or return her telephone messages.
The case continues today.

The Sussex company Park Bench Dance Theatre's show opens with two barefoot, smartly dressed women shuffling on to a empty stage with a dining table. They disappear again and return with some chairs. A long and wordless tussle ensues in which identical dining chairs are shifted and swapped, shunted and dragged, and swapped and shifted again.
The stress of home entertaining has sustained all manner of dramas, from big screen efforts Abigail's Party and Guess Who's Coming To Dinner? to Neil Simon's one-act play about marriage and divorce, The Dinner Party.
This year's Fringe festival has already hosted the triple-bill Table Manners in which assorted performers push the boundaries of what is acceptable during a three-course dinner. Within this overworked and frequently overwrought setting, there needs to be real human drama, an abundance of ideas, perhaps even a hint of subversion. Sadly, How to Host a Dinner Party comes up short on all counts.
Following the passive-aggressive shunting of chairs, our protagonists – played by Rosanna Tat and Cornelia Turner-Klier, who also choreograph the show - set about putting the finishing touches to their outfits. As make-up is applied, necklaces clasped and shoes chosen, both glance nervously towards the door. Why are their guests late? Have they been stood up? Why is it, I found myself thinking, that in the land of fiction no one thinks to pick up the phone?
Gradually we hear the sound of human voices, the tinkling of glasses and – in the hosts' imagination – a dinner party in full swing. The soundtrack gets louder as the women envision themselves deep in conversation, rapt in the sparkling company and, in a flight of fantasy half-inched from the film The Artist, encased in the arms of a man. Then all is quiet again, their hopefulness burst like a balloon.
The show is described on the programme as "minimalist dance work." The emphasis here is certainly on minimalist. While there is a tension in the flashes of antagonism, and playfulness in the synchronised movements that teeter on the edge of slapstick, these moments are too fleeting to really engage (the whole show is done and dusted in 25 minutes). As a whole the piece looks like a sketch for something more substantial. There is the outline of an idea here but, as it stands, How to Host a Dinner Party brings nothing new to the table.

What's new with KDE 4.3?
Things have also changed for applications: KMail allows users to add images to HTML messages. KAlarm lets you export alarms to a calendar file, as well as set alarms for tasks pulled from KOrganizer. The Okular document viewer now reads the widespread Mobipocket eBook format developed by French Amazon.com subsidiary Mobipocket. The Marble virtual atlas now displays the moon and a couple of other planets, such as Venus or Mars, and integrates the Wikipedia and Flickr online services (Figure 5). The convenient Okteta hex editor now has a filesystem browser, an overview of the loaded document, and a bookmark management feature. The Ark archiver supports InfoZip archives and offers improved handling of GZIP and BZIP2 files. More intelligible error messages improve user friendliness. KGpg now imports keys from a key server, and not just from local files.
Game developers have also been busy. KDE 4.3 again includes the KTron game. Many games now use an Egyptian-looking default theme (Figure 6). KGoldRunner, a MineRunner clone, records and replays games. KPatience optionally stores the game status when you quit, allowing players to carry on with a game after a break. KMahjongg includes 70 new levels provided by KDE users.
The reworked DrKonqi crash dialog makes it much easier to create error reports. The program relies on the GDB debugger to trace a crash and gives the user help if the required debug packages are missing. DrKonqi guides the user through the error report creation process step by step, lists possible duplicates, and sends the report to KDE project's Bugzilla. This allows users with little background knowledge to create error reports that are valuable to developers.
In our lab, KDE performed reliably and stably for the most part. Applications such as KMail, Dolphin, Konqueror, Akregator, Okular, Gwenview, KGet, and Marble were convincing in production use. The revamped messaging system and the Plasma activities feature also showed promise.
The Remember The Milk plasmoid had a habit of crashing the Plasma desktop. Improved protection of the desktop against potentially dysfunctional plasmoids would seem to make sense. Minor bugs in KOrganizer turned out to be fairly pesky. The upcoming bug fixes will probably help remove some of the problems with version 4.3.0.
I have to deduct a few points for the desktop search, which is still not implemented correctly and still doesn't work without some tinkering. KDE 4.3 printing is still not in the same league as KDE 3.5, and PolicyKit integration is still waiting to happen. Many applications have yet to implement the Akonadi personal information store. Thus, KDE users have good reason to look forward to the next major release.

When I was younger (back before I had ever finished anything) I would start a story and work on it until I got inspired for something else, then I'd work on that. I went wherever my muse took me. Sometimes I went back to previous stories that I had started, sometimes I didn't. But I never finished anything. Not once.
Then, I got so determined to finish this one story that I refused to start another. Even when I was inspired for a diffrent idea, I kept going on my current project. I'd jot town the new idea for use later, but I didn't veer away from the story I was writing at that time. And you know what? I finished it. For the first time in my life I finished a story! I was so unbelievably proud of myself.
I did that again with my next story. Even when I wanted to work on something else, I stayed on track and finished my current project. And I did. And the one after that, and the one after that. That was when I figured it out. I am incapable of writing more than one story at a time. Oh, I know it's possible, just not for me.
My cousin, A's, friend (we'll call her L) can do that. She'll work on a dozen stories at a time. She'll jump from story to story, whatever calls out to her at that moment. My friend (Let's say M) can sort of do the same thing, but not exactly. She's got a series that's so complecated that, sometimes, she has to write three or four at a time, because they're all in the same world, during the same timeline, and intersecting but involving completely diffrent characters. My other friend (B) jumps from story to story like L.
So, I'm curious, how many people out there only write one thing at a time like me? And how many are like L, M and B? When you work on a story, do you focus solely on that one story, or do you work on whatever floats your boat at the time?
© Copyright 2017 Divena. All rights reserved.
Status: Finished
Genre: Other
I totally suck at concentrating on one story at a time. Inspiration comes to me so many times that I just cannot wait to start a new one. Sometimes I have to start a new story so that I can be distracted from my main one, waiting for inspiration to strike. Without inspiration to guide me, I feel like I'm going into the story blind.
Sarah Dessen writes her novels intertwining but I'm not sure if she write them at the same time. They're surely not published at the same time, but character from her other stories will sometimes pop up in her other books. It was so fascinating really, cause I didn't realize that until I re-read "Just Listen" and realized that she put in characters from "This Lullaby". Now, her new novel that just came out last week (Lock and Key), I've spotted so many characters from her previous novels. It's really fascinating!
Anyways, getting off topic. So, yeah, I should really try and see if I can simply concentrate on one story. I probably won't succeed but I might be worth the effort, who knows?
I don't know if it'll work for you, but I use other stories as an incentive when working on a story. When I get inspired for something else, I promise myself "When I finish this book, I'll work on that one." On the down side, I have hundreds of story ideas, 99% of which I haven't started. On the bright side, I'm never lacking for something to write ^_^ thanks for reading!
I agree with SnowQueen on this one! I literally have been working on five different novels for the past ten years!! And I haven't finished a single one!
I did find out that I have adult ADD.....

GS-9900 G-Falcon
this wiki
The GS-9900 G-Falcon is a fighter-like craft which appears in the latter half of the series After War Gundam X.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
The main purpose of the G-Falcon is to dock with the Gundam units. When docked with the GT-9600 Gundam Leopard the Gundam is given the ability to fly, when docked with the GW-9800 Gundam Airmaster in fighter mode the speed is increased, and when docked with the GX-9900 Gundam X all functions were increased greatly. The G-Falcon can also dock with the newly developed GX-9901-DX Gundam Double X. When docked with it, the G-Falcon's generator also work as an energy bank for the Double X's Twin Satellite Cannon. This reduces the time needed to charge the Cannon and allows the Double X to fire it as a common beam cannon without microwave transmission. Lastly while the G-Falcon is attached to a Gundam, both units are capable of re-entering the Earth's atmosphere.
Besides its docking capabilities, the G-Falcon can also work independently as a fighter. It is armed with vulcan guns, infrared-guide homing missiles and scattering beam cannons, with the latter two function-able when docked with a Gundam.
- Infrared Homing Missile Launcher
- Holding 10 missiles per launcher, the missiles are capable of tracking targets.
- Scattering Beam Cannon
- Vulcan Gun
- A weak fast-firing weapon used for suppressive fire and intercepting missiles.
- Energy Pack
Developed by the United Nations Earth military as a support craft for their Gundam units, an unknown number of G-Falcon units was used during the 7th Space War. After the 7th Space War, the guerrilla group Satelicon found and rebuilt one G-Falcon to be used in their fight against the Space Revolutionary Army.
In AW 0015, G-Falcon pilot Pala Sys rescued Gundam Double X pilot Garrod Ran who was about to lose a battle against SRA ace pilot Lancerow Dawell. She then brought him to the Satelicon base where Garrod decided to join Satelicon to rescue Newtype Tiffa Adill from the SRA. When Satelicon is destroyed by the SRA, only Pala and Garrod escaped in their units. The two of them then decided to intervene in the firing plan of the Colony Laser. Their plan involved for the G-Falcon to mark the targets for the Gundam Double X's Satellite Cannon. Also during this operation Pala took Tiffa from the SRA in the G-Falcon.
After this incident the three were captured by the New United Nations Earth but were later able to escape. They were however chased by the New UNE forces as well as the Frost brothers in their Gundam. It shocked Pala that they were capable of chasing them even with the G-Falcon's speed but she was nevertheless able to shoot down several UNE units. Pala later joined Jamil Neate's Vulture group and during this time they tested the abilities of the Falcon to dock with the Gundams.
When the 8th Space War started between the New UNE and the SRA, Pala fought in her G-Falcon on the Vulture's side to reach the lunar base and meet D.O.M.E.. After the war ended, Pala joined Kid Salsamille's mechanic shop. What happened to her G-Falcon is unknown.
The GS-9900 is similar in function and design to that of the FXA-05D G-Defenser of the Universal Century.

Marcus Lemonis had the opportunity to have a conversation with Lee Iacocca one day, who said to him "you can either be an average guy continuing to do what you're doing – plodding along — or you can take chances." Lemonis took the auto mogul's words to heart, and started a company in the RV industry, which Iacocca pinpointed as ripe for growth. Did taking that chance pay off?
Crain's Chicago Business featured him in their "40 under 40" in 2005. In 2007, RV Business Magazine named Marcus their Newsmaker of the Year at the age of 34, and Ernst & Young named him the 2008 Entrepreneur of the Year. And his small startup RV business? He ended up buying over 100 small RV dealerships across the country and turning them into the popular chain Camping World, the camping and RV supercenter. That small startup consolidated with Good Sam Enterprises in 2010, and will record close to $2.5 billion in sales in 2013.
That's taking chances, that literally pay off … $2.5 billion times.
Marcus Lemonis took chances. Now, he's bringing that same risk vs. reward, winning spirit to CNBC, in the new primetime reality series "The Profit" premiering tonight at 10 p.m. et/pt. Each episode will feature Marcus stepping in to help a struggling entrepreneur save their business, while investing some of his own money. He'll "pay it forward" while teaching his personal motto: "Business success is about the Three P's: People, Process and Product." And he's willing to do the hard work and make the hard decisions to get these businesses back on track.

Annuals, perennials, shrubs? Does it freeze where they live? All those
things they have will grow where I am but if the area doesn't get frost,
those folks can really expand their horizons. I'm assuming it's not
xeric if they are planting star jasmine. Here's some low-maintenance and
easily available that should do okay:
Phormium (comes in standard bronze foliage but there are some nice
variegated colors if you look)
Society garlic (put it away from traffic areas, it smells...but it
flowers all summer)
Pelargoniums (not hardy)
Aloes (not hardy)
Kangaroo paw (not hardy)
Lion's tail (not hardy)
Mexican bush sage (not hardy)
Other salvias...I used to have a culinary sage that got about 4' tall,
flowered hugely every year...
Bird of paradise (not hardy)

So traps are set, and bears are shot - and not everyone's too happy with that. 'I think they ought to shoot the beekeepers,' says one local, 'and leave the bears alone.'
In this entrancing portrait of America's honey cowboys, however, bears and hostile locals rank pretty low among the commercial beekeeper's worries. One careless crop sprayer can do more damage altogether, as a scene in North Dakota makes gruesomely clear - piles of poisoned corpses by a string of ruined hives.
Then there is the odd phenomenon of 'queenlessness'. A moved hive becomes stressed, and stressed hives sometimes kill their queens, 'as if blaming them for the repeated disruptions'. The disruptions in question involve transit for thousands of miles, loaded on dodgy rigs ducking through the night on dirt county roads to avoid inspection stations. Drivers wrestle through, in states of terminal fatigue compounded by venom headaches, sweetening policemen and farmers along the way with cases of honey.
They stay in grubby motels laconically described as '900 flies and a TV full of snow'. They break their ribs, and they break the law; rigs become bogged in sand, or spill their loads on freeway intersections. A television set falls on a driver's head. Gaskets blow, radiators puncture, tyres erupt under excessive weights of honey; restaurant car parks fill with angry bees. One driver, threatened with arrest, walks into the bee cloud. 'I figured they weren't going to go in after me.'
But these troubles pale into insignificance beside the risk of infestation with the tracheal mite, the varroa, or political mites such as Dan Quayle. When Whynott visits Washington with a chain-smoking Oklahoman honey lobbyist, the result is a model thumbnail sketch of the workings of DC, through the offices of senators, congressmen, aides and consultants.
Mr Quayle had given a speech trying to block the honey support programme. 'We are,' he warned, 'probably going to hear some arguments about bees being important to our national security . . . buzz, buzz, buzz; bees, bees, bees. They are buzzing about everywhere . . . and by golly, if you don't vote for them, watch out for those bees.'
In fact, 80 per cent of the pollination of an enormous range of US food products - from almonds in California to apples in Connecticut, from alfalfa in Wyoming to cucumber in Virginia - is performed by bees. These crops, in total, are worth dollars 20bn.
So Mr Quayle could not stop the honey train - but, it seems, the Africanised, or 'killer', bee might. In an otherwise gentle book, the section dealing with the spread of this threat from Brazil, where the feral hybrid first appeared, takes on a gripping and apocalyptic tone.
Twenty-six swarms were accidentally released from an experimental station in 1957. Today, they rule South America. They crossed the Panama Canal in 1980, and arrived in Texas two years ago. A project for a control barrier at the border was costed at dollars 170m; it failed to obtain funding. But potential losses, in terms of reduced crop productivity as the US beekeeping industry collapses, are immeasurably greater.
Whynott saves this punch for last. The rest of his book alternates between following the nectar harvest down the long roads of the United States and describing along the way, with elegant simplicity, the miraculous workings of bee society.
As such, this is one of those rare books that illuminates an arcane and awkward subject, without ever forgetting to entertain in the process. When Whynott speaks in North Dakota with Joe and Dawn Romance, it's romance - bee herdsmen fixed in their souls on honey flows, honey gambles, and honey mathematics.
Migratory commercial beekeepers came into their own in the Sixties and Seventies, thanks to forklift trucks and interstate highways. But in the way of things American, the boom is now busting. These people have been stung almost to death, yet as one puts it, 'nobody's cutting a fat hog in the ass this year'.Reuse content

Admit it. Few things in this world bother you more than when someone opens up your favorite box of Girl Scout cookies and starts devouring that luscious goodness that you look forward to all year. You brainstorm for hours and hours trying to figure out where to hide your Somoas, Trefoils, and Thin Mints so no one else in your home will get close to your stash. If you knew the instant someone compromised your ingenious cookie hiding spot, you would utilize every ounce of resourcefulness and athleticism in your body to save your Precious before it is too late.
We are going to build our own layered security system around our cookie stash using a Raspberry Pi, a couple of sensors, and a cloud service. You will receive a SMS alert the instant someone is near your cookies and the instant someone touches your cookies.

The origins and growth of the Decatur Gun Club parallel that of the clay target itself, and the games created to hone and test shotgun shooting skill. Shotgun sport shooting with live pigeons and later, glass balls existed in the U.S. from the early 1800's. But the first "clay pigeon" and "trap" to throw it were not developed until about 1880 by George Ligowsky. William Brett From Decatur was the second manufacturer of clay targets in the U.S., which he called the "Decatur Red Bird". Considered the oldest shotgun shooting sports club in Illinois, the Decatur Gun Club was founded soon after clay targets were invented. Chan Powers and Bert Hildebrandt were two of the mentors of the club, first located near East William Street Road and 22nd Street. In the early years, the club occupied sites in the Hess Park area, the Wyckles Corner area, the Macon County Fairgrounds, and an area west of the Fairgrounds before finding it's home of the past 61 years at the north end of Faries Park.

Editorial: Wisconsin's unmistakable messages
Party activists and pundits are reading a great deal into Tuesday's election in Wisconsin, where Republican Gov. Scott Walker survived a recall vote. Some proclaim the outcome is a harbinger of November's presidential election, showing real GOP strength in a state Barack Obama won by 14 percentage points in 2008.
Maybe it is. Or maybe it isn't. Chances are that events between now and November will matter a great deal more. But there are at least three other unmistakable messages from the Wisconsin race:
•The public is getting deeply concerned about the fiscal condition that many states are in, and is smart enough to know that unsustainable public employee pensions are a big part of the problem. Among the many cuts Walker imposed since being elected in 2010 is a requirement that state workers contribute more to their retirement plans. He also stripped most public unions of their collective bargaining rights in a bid to gain more control over future labor contracts — a remarkable development considering that Wisconsin is where public employee bargaining began.
Walker's effort was both a political move to clip the wings of organized labor (which is more than 50% composed of government workers, who tend to vote for Democrats) and a fiscally prudent step to weaken the ability of powerful public sector unions to pick the people on the other side of the bargaining table.
Rate the debate
Regardless of motivation, Walker deserves credit for confronting the legacy created by spineless or shortsighted public officials who created massive liabilities to satisfy a powerful constituency. Wisconsin took steps toward fiscal responsibility that many other states and the federal government are so far refusing to take.
About Editorials/Debate
Opinions expressed in USA TODAY's editorials are decided by its Editorial Board, a demographically and ideologically diverse group that is separate from USA TODAY's news staff.
Most editorials are accompanied by an opposing view — a unique USA TODAY feature that allows readers to reach conclusions based on both sides of an argument rather than just the Editorial Board's point of view.
Public support for reining in outsized public employee pensions seems no longer in question. Walker's success was echoed, even amplified, by voters in two California communities, San Diego and San Jose, who overwhelmingly approved ballot measures on Tuesday to scale back pensions. Even in New York, a strong labor state, polls show 90% support for pension reform.
•The governor's survival might also have come from a second lesson: that voters are not enthusiastic about recalling public officials. Only two governors have been recalled, North Dakota's Lynn Frazier in 1921 and California's Gray Davis in 2003. Walker was the first to survive a recall election.
Public reluctance to recall might help explain the wildly divergent outcomes in Wisconsin on Tuesday and in Ohio last November, when voters overwhelmingly repealed a collective bargaining law very much like the one that got Walker into hot water. In one case, voters were happy to express their discontent over a particular law. But in another they balked when told they needed to recall the governor to achieve the same end.
Governors hold office for no more than four years. Barring gross incompetence or malfeasance, they should be granted time to make tough decisions.
•A third lesson from Wisconsin is that brazen partisanship rarely accomplishes anything other than fomenting bitterness and more partisanship. Walker ran into trouble not just because he went to war with powerful unions but also because he wasn't even-handed. He went after Democratic programs and constituencies while sparing those favored by Republicans. He made deep cuts to education, while cutting some taxes and increasing road spending. He curbed collective bargaining rights for teachers, but not for police officers.
Democrats responded with their own partisan fusillade, turning the recall effort into a vindictive and personal attack against Walker. They never did come up with an affirmative message about the direction of the state.
Rather than looking at the Wisconsin election as an excuse to handicap future races, why not look at it for what it was — a colossal waste of time, money and energy that accomplished little but stoke further polarization in a state that was once a model of good governance.

Ernie Had An Hernia Lyrics
Artist: Toy Dolls
Album: Absurd-Ditties
Too much nosh & too much booze
He spent all night in the bog with the blues
An aching head, intoxicated
He didn't even know he was constipated
He forced & he frowned, he pushed & he stained
But on the toilet seat he remained
He let out a shout as he passed out
& his gut was rearranged
No walks in the park, no drinks, no grub
He can't embark on a trip to the pub
He sits in the dark, and says don't trouble me
[Counterpoint Chorus:]
No one sees he's a ruptured man
He can't sneeze like you normally can
They're all mean, they're all riff raff
He turns green when they make him laugh
Ernie had a. Ernie had a...
Hernia, a hernie
Ernie had a. Ernie had a...
Hernia, a hernie...
He had a hernia
He can't stand up, her can't lie flat
The torment in his tummy preventing that
He can't sit down, can't go anywhere
The devil in his belly proving too much to bear
He can't go out & he can't stay in
Oh what's it all about? He just can't win
No chance of a bath or to see the lavatory for him
Ernie had a...<i>[guitar bit]
Ernie never smiles & he dare not grin
An aggravating abdomen wearing him thin
Ernie had a hernia but he did not give in
Ernia had a...
He had a hernia

According to a new MORI poll, Paula's experience is typical. Women are now significantly more likely than men to change their lifestyle because of fear of crime with, for example, an estimated 10 million women choosing to drive rather than walk because they feel safer.
The poll, carried out for Readers Digest magazine, comes as tomorrow's national crime statistics are expected to show a 10 per cent increase in violent crime. That percentage is likely to include a rise in crimes against women.
Around two in five women said they have gone out with someone else rather than risk venturing out alone. Just five per cent of men said they have felt it necessary to avoid public transport, while one in eight women say they have taken this precaution.
One in two women say they have avoided underpasses or ill-lit streets to prevent crime compared with fewer than one in four men. Anxiety about crime can even affect women's choice of clothing, with one in 12 saying that they have dressed more modestly to deter an attacker.
"If I do have to go out in heels or anything dressy I'll take a cab right to the door," says Rachel, a 30-year-old in the entertainment industry. "When I get in minicabs or one of my female friends is leaving my house in one, I always say, 'I'll give you a ring in half an hour.' But if I do have to walk home my main strategy is to walk in the middle of the road and pretend to be a mad old bat. No one wants to come near you then."
Women also are more likely to think about deterring burglars when they go out or go away. Around seven in 10 say they have left lights or the radio on or informed neighbours and friends. Half make sure they cancel milk or newspapers, compared to 43 per cent of men.
But the desire to feel safe can have a high price. Melanie and her flatmates took the drastic step of moving house after one of them was mugged in the street 200 yards from their flat "We moved to a greener, leafier - and much more expensive - residential area," she explains. "I don't know if it's psychological because I'm not sure that the crime rates are any lower where I live now, but I definitely feel more secure walking around there on my own if it's late and dark."
She feels the extra expense is worth the peace of mind: "It doesn't feel like London so much because there's some kind of community atmosphere which there certainly wasn't in the previous area. I feel like if something was going to happen to me people would stop and help. I never felt like that where I used to live. People seem to feel more responsible for each other in the area I am in now."
The MORI findings also indicate that the large majority of women are becoming increasingly concerned about crime.Nine in 10 say their concern has increased, including 72 per cent who say it has increased a lot compared with 84 per cent of the men. However women's fear is not backed up by the statistics. Women are slightly less likely to have been victims in the last year - 45 per cent of women versus 50 per cent of men.
"This survey shows just how serious an impact fear of crime has on women's lives," said Bob Worcester, chairman of MORI.
Graham Parker of the educational charity Consultancy Counselling Training and Leadership (CCTL), which is holding a conference entitled Crime and the Fear of Crime next month, said that Paula, Rachel and Melanies' experiences are not unusual: "I think women and young women particularly can feel very vulnerable. We see all these dreadful things reported in the media and people are affected."
Wide coverage of celebrity cases, such as the knife-point mugging of actress Liz Hurley outside her Kensington home, raise the profile of violent crime. Stories of how model Jilly Johnson was mugged as she sat in her BMW car in a West London traffic jam must have served to undermine the confidence of women who opted to drive for safety reasons. Her attacker yanked her in to the passenger seat by her hair and tore the Rolex watch from her wrist.
It was song, rather than press coverage, which American singer Tori Amos used to raise awareness of rape when she drew on her personal experience to produce "Me and a Gun".
"We have been made more aware of the risks but we probably think that the risks are much greater than they actually are," added Mr Parker.
He says that he has altered his own behaviour to be more sensitive to women's fears and feels men could do more to help: "When I was working in Holloway and would walk home from the Tube, if I was walking on the same side of the pavement as a woman I would often cross over. I didn't want the footsteps of a man behind them to strike fear into their hearts."
But Helen Wilkinson, project director of the think tank Demos and author of the "Tomorrow's Women" report, argues that the picture is not all gloomy.
"When you look at our data from 'Tomorrow's Women' it is actually showing that women are less concerned with safety than they were 10 years ago. Naming 'less fear' as their main wish has gone down dramatically from 46 per cent to 19 per cent.
"Technology has enhanced women's view of their own personal safety. CCTV cameras, stun guns and mobile phones - particularly mobile phones - have made women feel more secure than they did before. Clearly they are adapting their lifestyle but at least they are not stopping going out all together. It could be seen as as a positive response to a difficult situation."
MORI interviewed 2,027 people aged 15 plus across Great Britain. Fieldwork was conducted between 6 and 9 December 1996. Interviews were conducted face-to-face in the home.Reuse content

Mequon— Mequon police are searching for 54-year-old Candace Giles, who was last seen at her Mequon home Thursday morning.
Giles did not show up for a scheduled appointment, and personal items were left at the residence, which would lead family and friends to believe that Giles may be in danger or in need of help, according to a news release from the Mequon Police Department. Police also say there is no evidence that the public is in danger or that foul play is involved.
Giles was last seen at 11:15 a.m. Thursday at her home in the 5500 block of Parkview Drive. She was wearing a red long sleeve shirt under a dark green sweater and blue jeans. Giles is 113 pounds and has dark brown, shoulder-length hair.
