Word Tables That Measure Up
When you use tables in MS Word, do you ever find yourself frustrated as you try to get column widths or row heights to exact measurements?
I know you probably have the ruler open (View menu, Ruler choice) and you're sliding the cell boundary lines around trying to get it all set, but it sure would be nice if you could verify the widths and heights, wouldn't it? You know, be sure that you have exactly what you need.
Fortunately for us, the difference between guessing that it's what we need and knowing that we've got it right, is one key.
To be precise, it's the Alt key that makes the difference between guessing and knowing.
Dragging cell boundaries without the Alt key has the ruler looking like this:
It's the usual with gray blocks at each cell border. (If you check the vertical ruler, you'll find the same setup).
Now, hold down the Alt key when you drag the cell boundary.
See the difference?
The exact width or height of the cell is displayed allowing you to slide to the exact measurement needed.
The power to take the guesswork out of Word table measurements is all in the Alt key. Who knew it could be so simple?!

It is an old Scandinavian tradition to make woven paper or felt hearts to fill with candies or nuts and put on the Christmas tree. The Christmas tree in Scandinavia is not as lavishly decorated as in the U.S. and instead it has mainly handmade ornaments, the Norwegian flag and Christmas heart baskets.
Woven heart baskets are typically made from paper or felt in two contrasting colors, usually red and white and every school-age child in Norway knows how to make them by the age of 10.

In fact, you can see the Christmas heart in all Scandinavian nations. Some Danes say it is the symbol of the heart of Christmas (love and respect) and was invented by Hans Christian Andersen in the late 19th Century. In the past, the hearts filled with treats were the only gifts the children received after dancing around the Christmas tree and singing Christmas carols.
You can find a very easy to follow picture tutorial as well as a template for the Christmas heart basket on the Craft and Creativity blog.
I hope the Scandinavian Christmas heart will bring the love and respect to your house!

March 26 — Republicans For Mandating Coverage (RMC) — a 51-member coalition representing Republicans who supported a federal health care mandate before President Barack Obama endorsed it — urged the Supreme Court on Monday to uphold the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate:
As Republicans who have co-sponsored or supported legislation requiring all Americans to purchase individual health insurance in 1993, 1994, 2007, and as recently as 2009, RMC believes that the mandate is based on the fundamental American principle of personal responsibility, rooted in conservative jurisprudence surrounding the Constitution's Commerce and Necessary and Proper clauses.
In the words of Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Republicans "don't think the free market ever envisioned an idea that people would be able to do something and make other people pay for it." "People are either going to buy insurance or they're going to pay for their own care. They're not going to say, 'I got care and you Mr. Tax Payer or You Mr. Premium Payer are going to pay for me."
'Republicans For Mandating Coverage' believes that this is an "American principle" — a principle of "personal responsibility" — that can be constitutionally enforced by the federal government.
Since nearly all Americans are already part of the health care marketplace and health care affects 17 percent of the economy, Congress is authorized to regulate health care behavior under the Commerce Clause. As conservative Judge Laurence Silberman put it: "At the time the Constitution was fashioned, to 'regulate' meant, as it does now, '[t]o adjust by rule or method,' as well as '[t]o direct.' To 'direct,' in turn, included '[t]o prescribe certain measure[s]; to mark out a certain course,' and '[t]o order; to command.' In other words, to 'regulate' can mean to require action, and nothing in the definition appears to limit that power only to those already active in relation to an interstate market."
The Supreme Court can also find justification for the mandate in the Necessary and Proper Clause. In Gonzales v. Raich, the Supreme Court decided not to strike down a provision of law when that provision is an "essential part of a larger regulation of economic activity." Justice Antonin Scalia explained in a concurring opinion that "where Congress has the authority to enact a regulation of interstate commerce, it possesses every power needed to make that regulation effective." The Affordable Care Act fits Justice Scalia's rule. The act prohibits insurers from denying coverage to patients with pre-existing conditions. This ban cannot function, however, if patients can enter and exit the insurance market at will. If patients can wait until they get sick to buy insurance, they will drain all the money out of an insurance plan that they have not previously paid into, leaving nothing for the rest of the plan's consumers. Thus, a requirement that most individuals obtain insurance before they become ill is an essential part of the act's overall regulation of the insurance industry — or, to use Justice Scalia's words, it is needed to make the laws insurance regulations effective. 'Republicans For Mandating Coverage' believes that ending the government's role in providing free uncompensated health care to able bodied Americans who can and should pay for their own care, will shrink the size of the federal government, boost the economy, and free taxpayers from the burden of paying for uncompensated medical procedures. Republicans have promoted personal responsibility before the president and the Democrats ever did and today we continue to stand tall for this Constitutional principle.

U.S. AWOL when Christians in crosshairs
Persecution reports rising, especially in Muslim world
The U. S. government is absent when it comes to the issue of increasingly violent and deadly Christian persecution, according to a new book.
The charge is the topic of "Persecuted: The Global Assault on Christians," co-authored by Paul Marshall, Lela Gilbert and Nina Shea. Introduced at a Hudson Institute forum, the book says Christian persecution is on the rise worldwide, especially in the Muslim world.
Marshall, a senior fellow at the institute, says that it's hard to measure how bad the persecution is getting.
"The U.S. has tended to underplay religious persecution in general – and called it something else – and, in the case of Christians, often does not mention what is happening in places like Iraq and Egypt," Marshall said.
"Or, the federal government mentions the fact of persecution of people, but, often with Christians, not their religion nor the fact that they are being persecuted because of their religion, as distinct from race, etc.," Marshall said.
The panel also covered the ongoing case of American Pastor Saeed Abedini, who is being held in Iran's infamously brutal Evin Prison. All three co-authors pointed out that it was only in the past week that Secretary of State John Kerry asked the Iranian government to release the American pastor.
WND reported last week Kerry's statement as Abedini reportedly was to be moved to a hospital outside of Tehran for medical treatment. However, there is no word on whether Abedini has actually been moved.
Marshall also points to negligence by the previous White House.
"Note that this (absence of condemnation of persecution) was often true of the Bush administration also – especially regarding Iraq and Afghanistan," Marshall said.
Shea, director of the Hudson Institute's Center for Religious Freedom, agrees, saying both major political parties share the blame equally.
"If there is a hiker abducted in Iran, the State Department has no hesitancy to come out and make a major issue of these cases, but it seems like when Christians are involved, they shy away. It is found in both Republican and Democratic administrations," Shea said during the forum.
Marshall added that there is a price Christians worldwide are paying because of the U. S. government's negligence.
"The lack of U.S. attention likely leads to more persecution – when countries believe that they can oppress, and that nobody in the world will protest, they are emboldened to go ahead," Marshall said.
He added that there are limits on U.S. power.
"Of course the U.S. cannot stop all persecution everywhere, but if we consistently raise the issue and state that there will be costs to those who persecute, then we can reduce it," Marshall said.
Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary Center for the Study of Global Christianity Director Todd Johnson says the book is accurate.
"Yes, I think the Hudson panel correctly represents the situation. I was just with Paul Marshall in Istanbul, Turkey, last week for a conference on religious freedom. I think he and his colleagues have an important point to make specifically as it relates to Christians," Johnson said.
"But it is an issue that most governments in the Western world struggle with, so there are not many good examples to follow. I hope that things change as people like Marshall and Shea continue to point to inconsistencies and gaps," Johnson said.
Religious Freedom Coalition President and Founder William Murray said the point of the program was to zero in on the West's deficiencies in addressing religious persecution.
"The book and the forum centered on the ignorance of worldwide religious persecution of Christians," Murray said.
Murray added that the American church also bears some of the blame.
"The fact is that the church in the USA is not dealing with the problem or even discussing it. Christians here in the U.S. think not being able to give Easter cards out at schools is persecution," Murray said. "In Nigeria, it means more than 1,200 murdered last year and countless others wounded."

More than one economist believes the Federal Reserve's decision this week on whether to start to pull back, or taper, its bond-buying program is a "coin toss."
Tipping the scales against a more for many economists is one relatively simple factor: the calendar.
The Fed doesn't like to begin engineering less-easy policies at the end of the year, said Robert DiClemente, head of the U.S. economics team for Citigroup. In fact, the Fed hasn't done it in the last 40 years.
Over eight major interest-rate policy cycles dating back to the early 1970s, all have begun in either the first or second quarter, DiClemente said.
"Year end markets have never been a good staging ground for anything that even hints at initiating a less accommodative policy thrust," he said.
Many traders have closed their trading books for the year and markets may be less resilient to any miscalculation, said Lou Crandall, chief economist at Wrightson ICAP.
Crandall said there wouldn't be a debate about a taper if it weren't for year-end concerns.
DiClemente thinks the Fed will issue a "more confident" statement on the outlook or some guidance from Fed chairman Ben Bernanke that the scaling back will start in the first quarter and be completed before the end of the year.
But, like most Fed watchers about this week's meeting, DiClemente hedged his bets, saying "the potential for some level of surprise."

With the introduction of its Ecoxgear line, Grace Digital has quickly made a name for itself in the waterproof portable mini Bluetooth speaker arena. I previously reviewed the
The Ecorox is the Ecoxbt's little brother and its shape is very reminiscent of such speakers as the $99
Design and features
Design is one of the Ecorox's strong points. For starters, it's a better-looking speaker than the larger Ecoxbt, and is obviously very compact, weighing 11 ounces and measuring 5.3 inches wide, 2.5 inches high, and 3 inches deep.
The speaker fires from both the front and the top. Its two ports on back -- a Micro-USB connection for charging and an auxiliary input for non-Bluetooth devices -- are sealed by a rubber gasket that you lift to get to the ports.
All the physical buttons are well placed on top of the unit, with dedicated buttons for power, Bluetooth pairing, volume control, and track skip forward/back, and a call answer/end button for making speakerphone calls. Nothing to complain about here, though speakerphone performance is OK but not great; you have to sit or stand pretty close to the speaker for people to hear you well.
On the bottom of the unit you'll find a threaded tripod mount, which is where the optional accessories come into play. You can use a tripod, of course, but you can also purchase optional bike and car mounts (that suction-cup car mount is a dashboard mount for the interior of your car). You could potentially use the suction-cup mount to mount the speaker in a shower at home.
On the back of the unit you'll also find a little strap and you can attach the included carabiner clip to the strap and clip the speaker to a backpack (or whatever you want).
Clearly, one of the Ecorox's big extra features is the waterproofing. As I said, this is a full-on waterproof speaker. It's IPX7-certified, which means it's submersible in a meter of water for 30 minutes, and it floats; we dropped it in a fountain and it worked fine after we pulled it out.

圣托马斯大学University of st.thomas拥有强大的教师队伍,本科生每班平均21人,研究生每班平均18人。图书馆藏书44万册,1800多个座位,为学生提供了优越的学习空间。
General Background
The University of St. Thomas, founded in 1885 by Archbishop John Ireland, is a Catholic, independent, liberal arts, archdiocesan university that emphasizes values-centered, career-oriented education.
View Interactive Timeline?
St. Thomas has been coeducational at the undergraduate level since 1977 and welcomes students of all ages and nationalities and from all religious, racial, ethnic and financial backgrounds.
Overall, 51 percent of students are women (50 percent at undergraduate level and 52 percent at graduate level).
Overall, about 10 percent are U.S. students of color (10.4 percent at undergraduate level and 10.1 percent at graduate level).
Overall, 3 percent are international students (2 percent at the undergraduate level and 4.3 percent at the graduate level).
Overall, 44 percent of students who report their religion are Roman Catholic (53 percent at undergraduate level and 33 percent at graduate level).
St. Thomas is governed by a 38-member board of trustees. The university is not owned or governed by the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, but the ex-officio chairman of the university's board is Archbishop Harry Flynn. He became chairman in 1995.
St. Thomas is a member of the Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities, a consortium of five private liberal arts colleges. Other members are Augsburg, St. Catherine, Hamline and Macalester.
U.S. News & World Report's "Best Colleges" survey in 2005 placed St. Thomas in the national universities-doctoral category where it was listed in the third of four tiers. Prior to 2001, St. Thomas was ranked in the magazine's regional universities category, where St. Thomas placed in the top 10 of 125 Midwest colleges and universities.
Recent History
St. Thomas experienced a decade and a half of significant growth from the mid-1970s to the early 1990s. Enrollment during that time grew from about 2,500 mostly male undergraduate students to more than 10,000 undergraduate and graduate women and men. St. Thomas' 46 graduate programs (all but one established over the past quarter century) account for more than half of the university's enrollment.
The first graduate program, in education, began in 1950; the second, in business, began with 76 students in 1974.
Over the past two decades, St. Thomas has added three new campuses, in Owatonna, downtown Minneapolis, and Rome, Italy.
When it established a new academic structure in 1990 with an undergraduate college and graduate schools, St. Thomas changed its name from college to university. It refined its academic structure in 2001 when it established academic divisions that brought together related graduate and undergraduate programs into common schools and colleges.
Father Dennis Dease began the 14th presidency of St. Thomas in July 1991. He succeeded Monsignor Terrence Murphy, who was president from 1966 to 1991 and subsequently served as chancellor until his death in 2004.
Little-known facts
Bill "the Barber" Weston has given approximately 305,236 haircuts since becoming the campus barber in 1971.
Steve "Greenhouse Steve" Trost, the university's greenhouse manager, grows between 12,000 and 15,000 annuals in campus greenhouses each year. The plants are used in more than 30 garden spots on the St. Paul and Minneapolis campuses.
The Chapel of St. Thomas Aquinas is the site of more than 100 student and alumni weddings a year. Two weddings are held in the chapel each Saturday, and a Friday evening wedding is held during the summer months.

Michael Jackson lost $26 million on the first leg of the HIStory tour in the mid-1990s and was in debt for sound, lighting and other expenses, according to testimony Friday in the wrongful death suit his family has filed.
Paul Gongaware, now co-CEO of AEG Live/Live Nation, testified he was brought as tour executive for the 40 concerts that made up the second leg of the world tour.
"I had to go in and cut a lot of expenses," Gongaware said. "There was so much excess."
Gongaware said HIStory, at the time considered one of the most ambitious tours ever, eventually broke even.
He said Jackson's performances were "sensational" and he saw no evidence the singer was using drugs. Gongaware did not start working for AEG until 2000, when the entertainment firm bought his company, Live Nation.
Gongaware is a defendant in the wrongful suit filed by Jackson's mother and children against AEG. The Jacksons allege that AEG negligently hired and supervised Conrad Murray, the doctor who administered a fatal dose of the anesthetic propofol to the singer in 2009.
AEG contends that it was Jackson who hired Murray and that any money the firm was supposed to pay the doctor was merely part of a much larger cash advance to the singer.
Gongaware, in his fourth day on the stand, also testified that in 2008 Jackson met in Century City with Colony Capital, a group of investors, that held the mortgage on Jackson's Neverland ranch, which was threatened with foreclosure.
"Whoever held the note before … was about to foreclose on Neverland and Colony came in, I think at last-minute, and took on that obligation," Gongaware said.
He said Colony was trying to figure out a way to hold a Jackson exhibit or museum at the Las Vegas Hilton, which the firm owned. But nothing came of the discussions.

Wabash Mourns Sophomore Josh Linthicum• January 4, 2010 Share:
Wabash College sophomore Josh Linthicum of Springfield, Ohio, died Monday morning as a result of complications from surgery at Bethesda Hospital in Cincinnati.
Visitation will be held on Friday, January 8, 2010 from 5-9:00 p.m. at Kenton Ridge High School. A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, January 9 at 1:00 p.m. at the high school. Burial will follow at Ferncliff Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been set up in Josh's name at National City Bank in Springfield. Arrangements are being managed by Jackson Lytle Williams Funeral Home in Springfield.
Linthicum, 19, was a history major with hopes of attending law school after graduating from Wabash. He also worked in the Wabash athletics training room.
"The entire Wabash community is saddened by this tragic news, and our thoughts and prayers are with Josh's family," said Wabash President Patrick E. White. "Josh was an extremely likable guy, who was full of spirit and had a zest for life. I know that he loved attending Wabash and being a part of the Wabash football team.
"He will be missed by all of us at the College."
A member of the Wabash football team, Linthicum played in four games this season on the offensive line for the Little Giants.
"Josh always stopped by my office when he was headed to work in the training room just to sit and talk for a while," said Wabash's head football coach, Erik Raeburn. "This is such a terrible tragedy for his parents and family, and for his Wabash family, as well."
A graduate of Kenton Ridge High School in Springfield, Ohio, Linthicum was a member of the National Honor Society, the Spanish Honor Society, and Leo Club.
Linthicum participated in football, basketball, baseball, track, and power-lifting for the Cougars. He was a first team All-Central Buckeye Conference selection in football, and also earned second team All-Area, County, and District honors.
"Josh's smile and outgoing personality instantly made him a friend to everyone he met," said Brent Harris, Wabash College Director of Sports Information and Marketing. "He will be missed by not only his Wabash football teammates, but by so many other members of the Wabash campus whose lives he touched."
Linthicum is the son of Debbie and Mike Linthicum.
Wabash students, who are away from campus during the College's winter break, were notified of Linthicum's passing by email.
Notes of condolence for the family can be made online here.

Rated 4 out of 5 by SweetValley from Fitted and HOT I purchased this dress to wear to cocktail masquerade benefit. It fits well and the inside is soft. I didn't realize when I ordered it that the shoulder and the hem are made of super soft leather but everyone agrees it is HOT and SEXY. I used the sizing chart and measured myself and got the perfect size. I went with a medium and it looks great on. I am very athletic so my figure is muscular and this dress still keeps me looking very feminine. In most other brands I am still a small but this dress could end up being a little short is you size down. I would say, "use the chart"
