Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio
Since January of 2007, U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown � a champion of middle-class families in the Senate � has held more than 200 community roundtables across Ohio�s 88 counties with students, local leaders and business owners, entrepreneurs and educators, workers and families to find ways to rebuild our economy. Described as �Congress� leading proponent of American manufacturing,� Brown is working with the Obama Administration on the creation of a�national manufacturing policy�that would invest in manufacturing innovation, strengthen our component supply chain, connect workers with emerging industries, and align our trade policies to promote our national interests. He is also working with Ohio�s universities, entrepreneurs, and community stakeholders to use Ohio�s resources to create new jobs in high-growth industries and make�Ohio a national leader in clean energy manufacturing. And as a�long-time advocate for fair trade, Senator Brown has stood up to presidents of both parties on shortsighted trade agreements that ship U.S. jobs overseas. He led the bipartisan opposition to NAFTA in 1993 � as a freshman in the U.S. House of Representatives � and to CAFTA in 2005. Sen. Brown is working on trade policies that promote our workers, small businesses, and manufacturers while creating jobs and expanding markets through an aggressive export promotion strategy. Informed by his faith as a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA), Sherrod Brown is committed to social and economic justice. He�helped pass the historic health care law�that will make health insurance more affordable and accessible for American families. This law also provides strong consumer protections that will prevent insurers from placing limits on the care patients receive and discriminating against consumers based on age or pre-existing health conditions. Senator Brown is also working to ensure that Ohioans receive the education and training needed for 21st�Century jobs. For the last several years, Senator Brown has also convened a�one-of-its-kind Ohio College Presidents Conference�in Washington to discuss ways to leverage federal resources to promote higher education and job training in Ohio. Brown serves on the�Senate Committee on Finance.�He also serves on the�Senate Banking Committee, where he played an instrumental role in passing the historic Wall Street reform law, and is�Chairman of its Financial Institutions and Consumer Protection�Subcommittee. Brown is also the first Ohio Senator in 40 years to serve on the�Senate Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee, where he has been instrumental in strengthening the farm safety net and addressing childhood hunger.�He serves as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Jobs, Rural Economic Growth and Energy Innovation.

Sara Kate's Pepper Mill: Perfex Pepper Mill
When I met my man, I noticed he had a great pepper mill. It's true, I noticed it straight away. He had me, and about ten other people, over for dinner and I remember watching as this substantially weighted little metal sculpture made its way around the table, across to the stove and back again. It was like a gleaming little first-date fairy.
Years later, that pepper mill is now shared property and I'm here to say that the Perfex Pepper Mill is still a favorite. It has developed a beautiful patina, it grinds pepper day in and day out, and I actually look forward to that time every few months when I get to open its little trap door and fill it up with peppercorns.
The Perfex can be found at cookware shops and Amazon for about $60 to $80, which is not inexpensive — but for an item that will last a lifetime, possibly bring you love, and certainly will never let you down, is there any question?

text: How to use Microsoft Office to do Dental Billing Written by: goaskdebbie • Edited by: Lamar Stonecypher Updated May 20, 2011 • Related Guides: Microsoft | Excel | Microsoft Office Dental offices must keep track of extensive patient data and bill according to appropriate codes. While many dental offices may choose to purchase dental billing software, Microsoft Office is a suitable alternative. Use Microsoft Office to do Dental Billing Using a combination of Microsoft Excel and Word allows for tracking patient data, including history, and sending correspondence to both patient and insurance companies. Create Patient Records Spreadsheet First, open Microsoft Excel to create a patient records spreadsheet. Create the necessary columns such as "First Name," "Last Name," "Address," Appointment Date," "Appointment Time," and "Billing Code." Add any other columns as needed. HINT: To create successful data records it is a good practice to highlight the header row, usually Row 1, and bold the text. Type all patient name, address, and appointment information into the spreadsheet by using the "Tab" key to move through the records. If a large list of billing codes is necessary, it may be a good idea to create a lookup table. Create an Excel Lookup Table for Dental Billing Codes A dental office could keep a manual list of codes and enter them into the "Records Spreadsheet" as necessary, including costs. However, a "Lookup Table" allows for a clerk to select a specific "Code" from a list and have the cost automatically filled in from the selection. By using the "=LOOKUP" function, a separate list of billing codes and costs may be kept without the need to manually lookup codes and costs each time entry is needed.The function is as follows:=LOOKUP(lookup_value, lookup_vector, result_vector)The "lookup_value" is the column that contains the billing code. The "lookup_vector" is the range or list of data containing the billing codes. The "result_vector" is the column containing the costs for each corresponding code.For example, if the "Billing Code" column is "Column E" in Sheet 1 and the list is placed in "Column A" and "Column B" on Sheet 2, then the formula would be placed in "Column F" of Sheet 1 like this.=LOOKUP(E3, Sheet2!$A$2:$A$9,Sheet2!$B$2:$B$9)This formula looks up the cost for the specific billing code and returns the value into "Column F." Ensure that the "lookup_vector" range includes the entire list of codes and costs. In our example, we only have rows of data through row 9 and thus the formula "$A$2:$A$9" is used. The dollar signs around the cell range ensure that the range remains the same when copying the formula to all rows. The "dollar signs" create an "absolute" value in Excel. Copy the formula to all rows containing patient records.Continue to use the "Records Spreadsheet" to enter patients, appointment dates and times, and billing codes. =LOOKUP Formula Use Microsoft Word for Correspondence Once the data is entered, letters may be sent to patients and insurance companies using Microsoft Word. Open Microsoft Word and setup a template letter by typing it in full. Setup the mail merge by following these steps. If using Microsoft Word 2003 and earlier, click on the "Tools" menu and select the "Mail Merge" menu item. If using Microsoft Word 2007 and later, click on the "Mailings" tab and select the "Start Mail Merge" button. Follow the wizard in the window that opens on the right side of the screen. Select the "Letters" document type and click on the "Next" button at the bottom of the screen. Select the "Use the current document" and click on the "Next" button. Select the "Use an existing list" option for selecting recipients and click on the "Browse" button to locate the "Records Spreadsheet." Once located, click on the "Open" button to bring the data into the Word document. HINT: If the spreadsheet cannot be located, ensure that the browse window is searching for Excel files by clicking on the "data sources" or "files by type" drop down. Follow the wizard to select "Sheet 1" or the sheet that contains the patient data and to select the specific patients in which correspondence on billing is currently being completed. Click on the "Next" button to place specific fields from the "Records Spreadsheet" into the letter and select recipients from the patients. Select the fields needed to appropriately fill in the letter by clicking on the "More items" option in the wizard. Lastly, click on the "Preview your letters" button to view the accuracy of the letters. Click on the "Complete the merge" button and select the "Print" option in the wizard. If the billing clerk prefers to view the completed letters before printing, "Edit individual letters" may be chosen. In the "Print" dialog, select the letters to be printed and click on the "OK" button. Dental billing may be as specific as needed using Microsoft Office. Using the steps above allows a dental office to setup a simple and easy to use dental billing system. Use Microsoft Access for Dental Billing As the practice grows you may want to consider migrating from Excel to a powerful database program. Software such as Microsoft Access can make this a less laborious project. Microsoft Access is a database program which may easily be setup using templates. Microsoft provides a simple "Time and Billing" template which may be downloaded for free directly from Microsoft. As with all Access databases, templates may be edited. Be sure and backup the database and create a second copy while working with edits. This way if any mistakes are made, the original database is in place. Whether you decide to start out using Excel combined with Word or move directly to Access; using Microsoft Office for dental billing provides options that fit most any dental practice.

Rising Philly Singer Sean Ballad Releases "Have You Heard That" on William Hart's La La Records
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – August 11, 2016 – A mellifluous flame has been passionately burning throughout the Philadelphia area in recent months and his name is Sean Ballad. Produced and arranged by legendary Delfonics' singer William Hart and his La La Records, Sean's latest single "Have You Heard That" is bound to capture listeners' heart with its aural beauty and intense passion. This song, together with a multitude of additional, original R&B/pop ballads, is now available as a free stream and MP3 download on La La Records online.
Sean Ballad, a professionally trained Philadelphia vocalist possessing a four octave vocal range whose style has been compared to that of both Luther Vandross and Donny Hathaway, is equally adept at singing ballads and dance/pop-oriented material. But it is his strong and passionate singing on slow numbers like "Special Lady" and "Have You Heard That" (the latter song featuring William Hart on backing vocals and with a pronounced Delfonics musical flavor) that have really brought this young artist to the musical fore.
While two of Sean's songs, "Emoji Love" and "Special Lady" have drawn a tremendously positive reaction from the record company's social media fan base, which has been growing in leaps and bounds of late, it is the beautiful single "Have You Heard That" which is bound to win the hearts of many more. All three songs are now available as free streams and MP3 downloads on La La Records Online and La La Records' SoundCloud page – with many others to follow including members-only exclusive content and downloads to become available in coming weeks to the extremely valued members of the record company's fast-growing, official mailing list.
William "Poogie" Hart, founding member and primary singer/songwriter of the Delfonics, is world-renowned for classic hits including "(La-La) Means I Love You," "Ready or Not Here I Come (Can't Hide from Love)," "(Didn't I) Blow Your Mind This Time," and "Trying to Make a Fool of Me." As forerunners of the Philadelphia Soul sound, the group has served as a distinct influence on a pronounced ensemble of artists including Smokey Robinson, The Spinners, Stylistics, Main Ingredient, Blue Magic, Mariah Carey, Jackson Five, Prince, and numerous others. William, throughout the years passionately determined to further the musical legacy of the group and their message and ideals of dedication, beauty, and love – has been actively involved in producing and arranging his own list of young artists with intense musical talent around the Philadelphia area, including Mikee White and Sean Ballad. The music of La La Records is known for being creative, cutting edge, and containing only positive, beautiful messages in its musical content and lyrics.

Perhaps we are all familiar with these white and blue china and pottery that we have seen them in a beautiful interior magazine or in a museum.
White and Blue ceramic was first produced in the Middle East during 9th century. Then China fully adapted the white and blue ceramic for many centuries during their Dinasties reign. More stories (here). Then during the 17th century European ceramic porcelain factory started to adapted this color and pattern called Chinoiserie. Meissen in Germany, Delft in Holland and England starting to copy this chinoiserie pattern and color.
Blue and white china and pottery are often and still produce and being displayed in a modern home interior and decor today. It is a classic ancient object, copy repeatedly that truly makes a today's interior beautiful and elegant.
Inspired by the collection from pinning boards I collected in Pinterest called 'Blue & White Love' (here), I was intrigued to create a vintage white and blue cake stand. I have drilled many vintage plates to create one of a kind cake stand for sale in my Etsy store before. But never I imagined that these blue and white porcelain china was very hard to drill. I was determined to kept on drilling and extra careful so they will not break. I can only imagine the beauty of it when they stacked together as a cake stand kept me going on drilling. Literally when finished the palm of my right hand between the thumb and index finger were sore and red from holding the drilling machine too long.
Never the less I am so happy that I did not break any of them despite it seems forever just to drill a small hole to the other side of the plate.
Take a look at this cake stand. Don't you think it is beautiful ?

Gobekli Tepe Summary
In 1994, almost forty years after The Urantia Book's 1955 publication, excavations began at the Gobekli Tepe archaeological site in Turkey. The Gobekli Tepe site already reveals 50 engraved stone monoliths, some of them dating back to 12,000 years ago, that are at least 6,000 years older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids. A full excavation to the bottom of the site has not yet occurred, and only a small percentage of the site has been uncovered. The evidence suggests that the complex of round rooms with two especially large pillars in the middle were built for religious rather than practical purposes. Gobekli Tepe is widely acknowledged as one of the most important and mysterious archaeological sites in the world. The two main mysteries surrounding Gobekli Tepe are:
1) How did people this primitive cut, carve, move, and build with enormous stones in excess of 15 tons? The artifacts are inconsistent with prevailing theories about the development of civilization because every place else in the world, where ancient civilizations have built structures with enormous stones, there is also evidence of settled communities that practiced herding and agriculture. Prevailing theories about this region suggest that around 11,000 years ago, primitive man was just beginning to evolve from being a hunter-gatherer to a herder-farmer.
2) Why did this civilization decline over a period of several thousand years and then intentionally bury the site around 10,000 years ago? One of the peculiar aspects of the construction and art at Gobekli Tepe is that both become less refined over time. The older structures are significantly larger and more ornately decorated. There are clear indications that the site was intentionally buried but nothing to indicate why.
The Urantia Book answered these questions forty years before we discovered this mysterious site existed. The history of humanity provided by the authors of The Urantia Book recounts that a genetically superior and well-developed herder-farmer civilization existed in this area over 30,000 years ago. They also explain why this particular civilization experienced a prolonged genetic degradation and, therefore, cultural decline. Additionally, The Urantia Book says that, due to population pressures, inferior and more barbaric tribes drove out this more peaceful and advanced civilization.
Adding powerfully to the intrigue of this report is its relationship to the Adam and Eve Report and the Garden of Eden Report. These two reports also happen to reveal some of the most impressive corroborations of Urantia Book history documented so far by UBtheNEWS. The story of Adam and Eve in The Urantia Book is significantly different from the one found in the Old Testament and centers around a major genetic change that occurred 38,000 years ago. Starting with the Adam and Eve Report provides some background on the genetic issues that are relevant to this report; however, it is not necessary to read that one first in order to understand this one.

Controlling a spacecraft all the way to Jupiter's icy moons
AMES, Iowa -- The challenge is about as big as Jupiter, our solar system's biggest planet:
How do you control a flexible spacecraft that's up to 200 feet long, will take seven years to get to its deep-space destination and needs pinpoint control to move it and its science payload from moon to moon to moon?
Atul Kelkar, an Iowa State University professor of mechanical engineering, is part of the team that's been addressing that problem for the past two years.
And although NASA has suspended that proposed mission and replaced it with a mission to the moon, Kelkar and other team members think their technology will be launched into space one day.
The team has been working on a proposed Jupiter Icy Moons Orbiter, a part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Prometheus project. It would be powered and propelled by a nuclear reactor and electric ion engines. It would carry instruments to study three of Jupiter's moons: Callisto, Ganymede and Europa. It would look for signs of life-supporting water, thermal energy and organic chemicals.
Kelkar joined researchers from NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif., and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., on the project's Attitude and Articulation Control System team. The team has completed fundamental engineering work and simulations to establish the technical specifications for the spacecraft's control system and structural design. NASA has supported Kelkar's work on the project with $392,000 in research grants.
Don Soloway, a research scientist at NASA's Ames Research Center, said Kelkar's work has been instrumental to the team. That's because Kelkar worked on a NASA project to design a control system for large space structures back in the 1980s. It turns out very few engineers have that background. And Soloway said that project's technology applied directly to the proposed Jupiter orbiter.
Ask about the Jupiter project and Kelkar turns to his computer and calls up images of the spacecraft, illustrations showing flexibility and vibration tests of spacecraft parts and charts detailing simulations of the spacecraft's performance. He points to all the pictures and explains the details. And he says it's an exciting project to be working on.
Kelkar has been involved with NASA projects since he was a doctoral student at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Va., where he researched the control of flexible space structures. He also worked as a postdoctoral research associate at NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., from 1994 to 1996.
And from what he can see of the Jupiter Icy Moons Orbiter mission from his office at Iowa State, Kelkar said the project is technically challenging, but certainly possible.
"I don't have doubt -- with the past history and experience we have -- that this can go," he said. "The problem is the commitment of Congress to keep a project alive for so many years."

APACHE PORTABLE RUNTIME (APR) LIBRARY STATUS: -*-text-*- Last modified at [$Date: 2001/05/15 14:48:50 $] Release: 2.0a9 : released December 12, 2000 2.0a8 : released November 20, 2000 2.0a7 : released October 8, 2000 2.0a6 : released August 18, 2000 2.0a5 : released August 4, 2000 2.0a4 : released June 7, 2000 2.0a3 : released April 28, 2000 2.0a2 : released March 31, 2000 2.0a1 : released March 10, 2000 RELEASE SHOWSTOPPERS: * Unix apr_stat/lstat/getfileinfo were very fast hacks, needs review. Ignore APR_FINFO_NAME issues for b1, I've noted that issue below. OtherBill asks has someone done so? * OS2 apr_stat/lstat/getfileinfo/dir_read were very fast hacks, need cleanup, toggle messy (APR_INCOMPLETE) result when appropriate. OtherBill asks has someone done so? * complete the efforts started by DougM for cleaner fn naming conventions: see proposed name changes in renames_pending and offer up any additions/vetos/clarifications. DougM offered to complete the work with his nifty perl rename script at the hackathon. RELEASE NON-SHOWSTOPPERS BUT WOULD BE REAL NICE TO WRAP THESE UP: * Get OTHER_CHILD support into Win32 Status: Bill S. is looking into this * Unconditionally setting AI_CANONNAME flag when apr_sockaddr_info_get() calls getaddrinfo() is bogus and causes undesired DNS requests. Status: Jeff will look into this * Solve Win32 APR_CHR, APR_BLK, etc for Win32 apr_stat without GetFileType? How about inode/dev/nlink? Status: OtherBill's WIP * SysV semaphore support isn't usable by Apache when started as root because we don't have a way to allow the semaphore to be used by the configured User and Group. Current work-around: change the initial permissions to 0666. Needed code: See 1.3's http_main.c, SysV sem flavor of accept_mutex_init(). Status: Jim will look into this * Build scripts do not recognise AIX 4.2.1 pthreads * Win32: Implement apr_shm_ functions * FirstBill says we need a new procattr, APR_CREATE_SUSPENDED (or something similar) to direct ap_create_process to create the process suspended. We also need a call to wake up the suspended process This may not be able to be implemented everywhere though. Status: OtherBill asks, why? What is the benefit, how is it portably implemented? Unless this creates some tangible that mirrors another platform, then I'm -1. * Replace tables with a proper opaque ADT that has pluggable implementations (including something like the existing data type, plus hash tables for speed, with options for more later). Status: fanf is working on this. * add a version number to apr_initialize() as an extra failsafe against (APR) library version skew. MsgID: <email@example.com> Status: Greg +1 (volunteers), Jeff +1, Ryan +1, Tony -0(?), david +1 * The MM library is built as static and shared library. This should be set up to build only the required version. * add apr_crypt() and APR_HAS_CRYPT for apps to determine whether the crypt() function is available, and a way to call it (whether it is located in libc, libcrypt, or libufc) Status: Greg +1 (volunteers) * apr_create_lock() changes: - It ignores the "type" parameter, so toss it. - The fname param is allowed to be NULL on the Unix platform. Change it to always use the passed value, and check callers. rbb says: The type parameter is supposed to be used to determine if we are working with a read/write lock or a mutex. The fname parameter is essentially required if you want to be portable, but I dislike wasting cycles to outsmart the programmer. Status: david +1 rbb -1 * configure.in does post-processing on the AC_OUTPUT files (for VPATH support). This means that config.status doesn't do the right thing when you re-run it. We ought to revamp the makefiles to do the right AC_SUBST stuff rather than depend upon rewriting. Sascha: As the rewriter is a crude hack, I would not worry too much about it. It is designed to go away once we have a proper build system in place. One of the perceived deficiencies of automake is that it uses AC_SUBST too often, thereby slowing down the task of generating Makefiles significantly, because it applies dozens of substitutions to each Makefile. And why? Make's built-in macro processing is much more powerful, and combined with the include facility, generating Makefiles becomes simpler and faster. * use os_(un)cork in network_io/unix/sendrecv.c for FreeBSD's sendfile implementation. david: The socket options stuff is now in and using it should reduce the number of syscalls that are required for os_cork and uncork, so the code should be reviewed to make use of the new calls. If no-one beats me to it I'll get around to it soonish... * toss the per-Makefile setup of INCLUDES; shift to rules.mk.in * add the rest of the pool accessor declare/impl macros. Status: Greg volunteers * I think apr_open_stderr() and friends dup() the descriptor. That would allow the new/returned file to be closed (via pool cleanup or manually) without accidentally closing stderr/out. * need to export the shared library extension (e.g. ".so") for the platform. clients need to use this to construct filenames to pass to apr_dso_load() * may be good to have a --disable-ipv6 configure option * add a pool argument to setaside() to tell a bucket "do whatever you need to do, to ensure that you survive as long as this pool." Immortal and heap buckets never have work. File, socket, mmap, pipe, and pool buckets can do nothing if the given pool is equal to, or a descendent of the pool they are using. Apache's core_output_filter can then say "setside(conn->pool)" to ensure that a saved brigade will last as long as the connection. * APR memory code - code has been added but we still need to - decide on a better name for the code - reformat to APR style (think this is now done, but some tabs left) - test on more systems - add to the default build as currently it's omitted. Also need to add testmem to the test build at that point. - add more detailed tests to testmem.c Documentation that needs writing: * API documentation Stuff waiting for code thawing after Beta 1: * Implement APR_FINFO_ICASE/APR_FINFO_NAME for stat'ish calls. Can wait till after b1, will be required to eliminate canonical and add that functionallity in-line with directory_walk, which is _not_ planned for 2.0b1, but immediately afterwards. It's required to complete Apache/WinNT's Unicode schema as well. Note: Will doesn't like his original APR_FINFO_ICASE definition. * Identify and implement those protection bits that have general usefulness, perhaps hidden, generic read-only [immutable], effective current user permissions, etc. * APR memory code - Look at how we'll handle run-time loading of memory sub systems. - shared memory module? - decide on where we're actually going with the code...

Thomas Payne of Poquoson became acclimated to college wrestling in 2012-13 with one of the nation's best programs: Bloomsburg (Pa.).
Payne, competing at 125 pounds, finished 4-9 with a pair of victories by pin. All of his action came in individual tournaments, and he did not take the mat in a dual match. But he got a matside seat for plenty of excitement.
The Huskies captured their first Eastern Wrestling League dual-meet championship and finished 17-3, then took third place in the EWL tournament. The Huskies, who earned victories over nationally ranked foes Maryland, Pittsburgh and Edinboro, finished 15th in the National Wrestling Coaches Association poll. They sent six wrestlers to the NCAA championships.
Bloomsburg will face some transition in 2013-14, though. John Stutzman, who was named the EWL Coach of the Year, left to become head coach at the University of Buffalo, where he had been an assistant. Danny Song was named interim head coach for Bloomsburg.
Payne won the state Group AA championship for Poquoson High at 103 pounds in 2010 and took third at 112 in 2011, when he was a junior and finished 43-7. Payne wasted little time becoming immersed in wrestling; he began attending the Virginia Duals when he was 4.
He has undergone three knee surgeries but has come back to wrestle every time, and he was on the Poquoson honor roll.

The objective of this assignment is
To make you familiar with linked list data structure and programming techniques to implement linked list.
For any query about the assignment, contact at firstname.lastname@example.com
Marks: 20
We know that in linked list we have one value and one pointer (to hold the memory address of next node). Note that it is not compulsory to have only one value. There can be more than one value in one node but pointer will remain one.
Write a C++ program to implement linked list data structure. In this problem every node should have six values, the name of node and a pointer. Your program should prompt the user to enter total number of nodes in the list. After this give the name to node and save 6 different values in node. Process should be repeated for each node.
After entering values of all the nodes, sum the values in each node and sort the list in ascending order (on the basis of sum calculated in each node) i.e. node with smallest sum comes first and node with largest sum comes
Note: Values within a single node should not duplicate. If a user tries to enter any duplicate value WITHIN A NODE then show a warning message and ask user to enter value again.
The diagram given below is showing the sorted list.

Koreans accused of leaking shipbuilding secrets to China
Four ex-employees of South Korean shipbuilding firms have been indicted for allegedly trying to leak world-class shipbuilding technology to China, reports Korea's Yonhap news agency. The leak could have caused a loss of 35 trillion won (US$38 billion), prosecutors said Tuesday.
The group included a former chief engineer of a leading South Korean shipbuilder identified only by his family name "Eom," they said.
The Korean Broadcasting Service reports that the engineer is suspected of trying to sell to Chinese shipbuilders one-thousand computer files on all essential shipbuilding technologies, which he is said to have stolen when retiring from his former employer.
According to an AFP report, Eom, moved to a local ship-design firm that has launched a joint venture with China's Qingdao city government to build a large shipyard. He was scheduled to leave for China in late July to work on the project.
Separately, prosecutors also indicted three other former employees of the same Korean shipbuilder, accusing them of handing over other confidential business data to Eom's ship-design firm.

Washington, DC ' Upon being sworn in to the 115th Congress today, Rep. Ron DeSantis (FL-06) immediately introduced a constitutional amendment to limit the number of terms that members of Congress may serve. If adopted, members of the House could serve no more than three terms and Senators no more than two.

Speaker Paul Ryan along with Casey, Madison, and Ron DeSantis
"Congressional Term Limits are the first step towards reforming Washington and draining the swamp,"? DeSantis said. "Term limits for members of Congress will change the prevailing Beltway power structure, realign incentives for members of Congress and bring accountability to Washington, DC. I thank President-elect Donald Trump for his support for term limits and will work hard to restore the citizen-legislator ethos of our Founding Fathers."?
Sen. Ted Cruz (TX) introduced the Senate companion. Last month, DeSantis and Cruz penned an op-ed for the Washington Post outlining why term limits are a vital step towards restoring accountability on Capitol Hill. Read here.
"President Trump, Speaker Ryan and huge majorities of the American people are demanding term limits,"? said U.S. Term Limits President Philip Blumel. "Congress must listen and pass the Cruz-DeSantis amendment immediately."?

**all items received free from Influenster for review/testing purposes
I've been thinking and thinking about how I feel about the 2 new CoverGirl products I received for testing from Influenster in a VoxBox a few weeks ago. Clearly, if I've been thinking this long, then I've got some type of issue with one (or both) of the products. Hopefully you can understand my thoughts on this liner since I feel like my review ended up being long-winded and perhaps a bit jumbled.
Today's review is of the Intensify Me! by LashBlast Liquid Liner in shade 300 Intense Black. This liner is already in stores, if not on the wall then in the new release counter displays.
Product claims:
- Control of a pencil
- Intensity of a liquid liner
- "paddle-shaped tip gives you two looks in one - thick and dramatic or thin and elegant"
- "Intense black formula glides on smoothly and dries quickly for instant drama"
- Ophthalmologically tested
- Suitable for contact lens wearers (can not test that personally)
- Removes easily with soap and water
In order for me to get the look above, I have to dab the liner using the side/length of the tip - using the end always ends up as a gray line. I also have to frequently dab the liner on my hand to "reload" the pigment to get the line darker. After I have the "outline" of my wing, I use the flat side of the tip to essentially color in the empty spot by dabbing. I almost always end up dabbing along the main part of the line using the flat side as well to get the line darker - I have to be careful to not thicken the line too much doing that.
I do think that if you put this on with absolutely no product on your lid already, you get a better result (which is what's above). As soon as there's any concealer, powder, primer, eyeshadows...this liner turns into a fail for me. The tip literally picks up existing color products and then I struggle to get any liner on. I end up with a decent sized spot on my hand from constantly dabbing the tip to keep reloading it so that hopefully I can get a black line. On the plus side, I can draw over the same line without it picking up any of the liner itself.
With enough time and patience (and doing my liner before any eyeshadow placement) I can eventually get a nice, fairly crisp line that goes from thin to thick and ends in a point. In comparison to a pencil liner, it goes on smoothly and much more precise. Intensity of a liquid liner is where I'm not sure I'd agree. When I started placing the line of my wing today, it was literally gray until I laid the liner nearly parallel to my face so that I was not using the actual end of the tip. For me, I feel like if I'm going to use a "liquid" liner, I prefer a brush tip that you dip into a pot (no wonder I prefer gel liners that you apply with a brush).
I do feel that if I lightly rub over the line, it fades away to gray - at least it doesn't smear. Actually, I think I noticed some fading even if I didn't touch/rub the liner. The packaging does claim that it "removes easily with soap and water" and I did attempt that the first time I wore it. It actually did remove fairly well, but I felt like I needed to really take my time (but I also had the mascara on - review upcoming).
So ultimately, what's my decision about the CoverGirl Intensify Me Liquid Liner? It's...(pause for a few minutes while I ponder)...it's not something I absolutely can't stand. It's all right for when I'm doing very basic makeup (no eyeshadows - it's all about the lips for those days). For wearing over eyeshadows and/or needing water resistant/proof liner, I still prefer my gel liner from other brands. I guess that what I'm trying to say is that it has it's place/use but it's not the only liner I want in my collection.
Is the CoverGirl Intensify Me Liquid Liner something that interests you in trying? What's your preferred type of liner?
**I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
**my opinions are my own

The Revelation at the Rampart
Part three of six.
By Nicholas Rombes.
[The story so far, as told in parts I and II. Bronson and Barnes have been given instructions to repair a section of the wall in a remote part of the Empire. Haunted by the memory of his lost sister Evelyn, and unsure of why he has been paired with Barnes for this duty, Bronson begins to piece together the true nature of their mission.]
The drones.
They came, these days, in the form of something resembling hawks, complete with feathers, soaring high and screechless. Bronson has a memory—as faint as the undercoating of paint—of throwing pebbles at large birds like that. Not quite: him handing Evelyn small stones and she hauling off and whipping them at the sky not to hit them but to make them dive as if at insects. They had gotten the idea from watching bats at dusk above the open field drop and rise in sharp, impossible rhythms. Just trying to pick one out and follow it was enough to set your eyes in a sort of waking REM.
There were two of them, then three, against the grey afternoon sky. Those slow, looping, circles in the air that were so familiar. It was Barnes who noticed them first.
"Are they ours?" he asked, still watching the sky.
Bronson, standing behind him, considered, yet again, the star-shaped symbol scarred onto the back of Barnes's neck. To their east was an enormous grasslands, stretching to the far horizon. To their west was much the same, with pale mountains rising in the distance. They stood upon something like a farm-to-market road, dipping and rising ahead of them and then curving off into the unseeable distance.
"The one on the left, maybe," Bronson said. It was meant as a joke; the drones were in motion, continually exchanging places in the sky. It was also a test, of sorts, to see if Barnes would smile.
He didn't.
After two hours of walking at a good clip without stopping, everything looked the same. Which was to say, everything looked just slightly different, somehow. Repetition and difference. Wasn't that how one of theorists Bronson studied under characterized our present age? Was it repetition with difference. Or and difference? Also: Empty time. In the dry air of that classroom in the cool basement library Bronson had fallen in love with the translated words of philosopher D., even though later that semester, drunk at the Brickhouse on a cold winter night, he would learn from the philosophy students that no one in philosophy considered D. a real philosopher. What is he then? Bronson asked. An aphorist, they said, made into a philosopher by English departments.
That night, as Barnes and Bronson slept near the side of the road beneath one of the shapeless thornapple trees that had begun to appear, Bronson listened as Barnes talked in his sleep. Some of the words were familiar:
Empire . . .
Instructions . . .
Firestorm . . .
Jinxed . . .
While others seemed to be two words put together into something familiar:
Out-push . . .
Day-gold-by . . .
Open-waste . . .
And yet others were alien to Bronson:
Cuitlaxcolli . . .
Bronson had been wondering when the blood would flow. He awoke at dawn and immediately sensed something nearby. Barnes was still sleeping. Bronson walked to the road and there it was: one of the animals they had seen a few days earlier, dead in its own puddle blood, its spiky, wire-like black hair longer than he had imagined. He nudged the creature with the toe of his boot. He circled it. Looked over to see if Barnes was stirring. The sky was bright and clear, and the low mountain range to the east looked like something cut out from thin, blue paper. The blood had come from the animal's throat, slit so deeply that Bronson could see the whiteness of bone. He circled it again. Its bloating belly. He avoided the blood.
"Barnes," he said, his eyes still fixed on the animal, "have a look at this."
The sun had risen quickly, and a thick fly, like a blueberry, followed by others, landed and then held still around the rim of the eye.
Then Barnes was there beside him. The death of the black animal seemed more pronounced now that Barnes was there. A confirmed fact. He hunched down and peered at the cut throat still leaking blood and then stood back up.
"Huh," he said, rubbing the back of his neck.
Bronson, standing behind him, noticed the blood beneath his fingernails.
Fucker, Bronson thought, didn't even bother to scrub his hands clean.
After that, things changed, though Barnes didn't know it.
The Empire stretched on and on encompassing its own useless, undulating fields. Barnes and Bronson, too, walked on and on, day after day, towards the chaos and catastrophe of the wall. Bronson's repair kit with its small metal objects wrapped individually in oiled cloths weighed heavily in on his back in a small leather knapsack. On the third day the grass fields changed to barren, dustless land, and then back to grass.
The lack of objects on the horizon intrigued and then spooked Bronson, who recalled the plane of immanence from his useless theory-training, the horizontal moment of thought and all that. He understood that in order to repair the wall he would have to destroy it, tear it down to the foundation. That was prerequisite for the emergence of any new System. He would need to get to the root of the infection. In this phase of the Empire's long collapse, to be an engineer, as he was, meant to be a destroyer, not a designer, of objects. But in order to destroy them properly one had to know how they were built in the first place.
On the fifth day, they came to a quarry, the first sign that they were nearing the wall. Bronson knew that some sections had been quarried hundreds of kilometers from where it was built, so the wall might still be days ahead. The bitter smell of limestone filled the air and Bronson couldn't help thinking of the smell of blood from the cut-throated animal. Large ruts in the earth indicating the direction the limestone had been transported ran due north, towards the wall. At the bottom of the quarry, perched on a large rock in the middle of a pool of turquoise water, were several of the drone-birds they had seen in the sky earlier. Again, Bronson thought of Evelyn and her pebble throwing, and of how, on the night before she disappeared, home from university for the summer, her hair shorter than he had ever seen it before, they had gone to the zoo, where she called him little brother for the first time in a long time, and how in the enormous walk-in aviary, so full of sound, she first suggested that some of the birds weren't real at all.
The quarry a few hours behind them, Bronson and Barnes rested at the side of the road.
"We should have taken a trophy," said Barnes, "from the animal."
"Why?" Bronson asked.
"As a reminder. Maybe a tusk."
"There were no tusks."
"I should have said 'the.' There was only one tusk. Someone or something else must have taken the other."
This was the most Barnes had said since the beginning of the journey, and Bronson was inclined to keep him talking.
"Or the tail," Barnes continued. "Tusk or tail."
"What tail? There wasn't any tail."
Barnes gave Bronson a look that told him to stop but Bronson, being Bronson, kept going.
"We looked at the same animal, Barnes, dead on the road. There were no tusks. There was no tail."
"Perhaps you failed to see them because of the blood."
"I saw what you saw. The same thing."
"Well. We should have taken a trophy," said Barnes, and they were back where they began.
Before nightfall they passed another, larger quarry. The landscape was more rugged now, with outcroppings of mossy rocks and scattered pine trees. By the light of the campfire, Bronson studied the back of his left hand, looking for movement in the design. His thoughts drifted ahead to the wall, not as a structure but as an event, an event that the Empire wanted him to contain, as if meaning could ever be anything other than deferred, and in this deferral not nothingness but the revelation of absolute absence. A structurally unreadable sign, that's what the wall had become, and yet he was to engineer its repair, as if a breach that great could be repaired.
The question was: why had the Empire send him on a mission to repair a wall that, they must have known, was beyond repair?
During the night Bronson sensed the presence nearby of more animals like the one Barnes had slaughtered. He was thankful they hadn't taken parts of it as a trophy. The wall was only few days further, and Bronson began to wonder if Barnes would do to him what he had done to the animal, cutting his throat so deeply that the knife actually wiped itself clean against his vertebrae. And yet the fact that Barnes hadn't been careful to hide the fact that he had killed the animal was oddly comforting to Bronson. It meant that he was either careless or was telegraphing his intentions on purpose.
Either way Bronson slept well that night, beneath the stars, the sky full of silent drones, more than he could possibly imagine. He dreamt of letters, and then those letters in the shape of a word: Cuitlaxcolli.

Arlington – Former president George W. Bush was among hundreds of Texas Rangers fans who helped set a new Guinness World Record on Tuesday night for most people wearing sunglasses in the dark.
While most of the 33,533 people donned shades during the game with the Detroit Tigers at Rangers Ballpark, the mark to beat was 423 so Guinness officials only bothered to count two sections of the crowd, MLB.com reported.
That group included Bush, who often goes to Rangers games, and club President Nolan Ryan, who were both seen on the big screen when the public announcer told the crowd the record attempt was set to begin after the sixth inning.
"I'm pleased to say that 424 people participated in this attempt," said Danny Girton Jr., senior corporate communications manager for Guinness.
The shades were provided to the fans by Reliant Energy as they entered the stadium.
"There were a further unconfirmed 30,000 who helped Reliant Energy in this attempt," Girton Jr. added.

Yes, many are completely disconnected. The current economic situation is definitely shaking some people awake but, you're right, I don't see a huge number unplugging from the propaganda either.
The stats I pointed out about the 9% uptick since the election is positive news IMO. The overall 2 year decline may be a result of the economy (no time to search for news on Aliens when the power is getting shut of) or it could be a sign that people are just disgusted (taking a self-imposed time out to gather thoughts).

If nothing TPTB got the production they desired and it was through the parents hands themselves with no resistence because they thought it was better for us. In fact in my life alone I've seen parents dismiss what there youth said over Dr. Phil or some other Psycho-babble, but the doctors said it was good for you son/daughter...
Tell you what.
Want to see the youth do something? Stand up parents. Lead by example and you will see something greater, I guarentee. I know this because I've travelled this great nation and swam both oceans met more like minded as myself there's not a youth that wouldn't tell you otherwise. WE WILL STAND when you show us how. Or is it something like standing up and protecting yours a distant thought of the past?

Six months is not a long time. Three months is especially not a long time.
It takes six months to learn your job, to understand all the ins and outs.
It takes six months to learn how to drive a stick, to the point that you are just cruising.
How long does it take to fill a bowl with water? It depends. When that bowl is your relationship, how do you know if it is full?
Relationships take time. Enjoy your time together. Use that time to get to know one another through every stage; lust, attraction and then attachment.
If you are with the person now, have decided that after three months that they are the one, then it is no more a waste of time to wait six months than it is to spend time with them now. The time together is a fraction of the years you will spend with each other. You will still be together - so there is no time misspent.
It may be quicker for one of the couple to learn that you are compatible. It may take longer for the other. Either way, no one is wrong or right.
And you need to respect that difference.
Initially you are attracted to who it is you think they are and it is only as time goes by that you truly understand who that person is. This is not a good thing or bad thing. It just is.
There are no time limits, rules, requirements or time frames.
The natural tendency is to assume that people are who they say they are and who they appear to be. You can learn facts but a person is so much more than that. You also have an impression of their character. People in general, from one to the next, are inconsistent.
Not all conclusions can accurately be drawn from discussions. One needs to verify words with deeds and actions. One needs to verify deeds and actions with words.
Only in a committed relationship do you have the opportunity to discover who someone is. Time together is fulfilling. Time away from each other, you are missed but the feeling of fulfillment remains.
Your relationship is based on a respect and devotion motivated by none other but your partner; a heart-pumping, breath-taking, earth-shattering overall body sensation when this person walks in the room.
You develop an awareness that you would gladly give up just about anything and perhaps everything to keep this person safe and happy.
After talking to my best friend I added this concluding line.
Be open, communicate and tell them what you are thinking.

Products Description
RUBICON by Gregory Wilson - Download now
Original price 350USD
The most anticipated trick of the year. This reputation-maker has been perfected over 10 years in Greg's professional repertoire.
"RUBICON is so spectacular that I featured it on one of my TV specials!"
— Cyril Takayama
"Greg's elegant solution is as simple as it is beautiful."
"For so many reasons, RUBICON is one of the most talked about moments in my parlour and stage shows."
"You get away with it right under their noses. The hardest part is not laughing as you do so."
"The real con is you will look like a genius without being one."
"This is as good or better than any $10,000 illusion in my show!"
For over a decade, I have performed RUBICON around the world and have been asked over and over when I'm releasing it to the conjuring community. My original version was handcrafted, but only recent state-of-the-art technology enabled the gimmick to be engineered and machined in a far superior fashion.
About five years ago I allowed a few high-caliber magician friends to perform this routine, as I knew they would do it justice in their professional shows. I am confident you will enjoy it as much as they have:
Don't think of this as a trick, but rather as 5 to 7 miraculous minutes to add directly to your show.
Comes with Instructional streaming video.

Thinking Ahead
In simple terms, the accuracy and state of your records = the value of the aircraft. It doesn't matter whether you are operating an ABJ or an A320, if you don't manage your records throughout your operating period you will be in for a big shock later down the line.
Whether you have purchased your aircraft or leased it, you need to think about tomorrow today.

Cello can deliver excellent record management solutions that maintain the maximum operating and commercial value of your aircraft at all times. If you want the best possible return when tomorrow actually comes, you'll be glad you thought ahead.

The SSP Alumni Mentor Program helps current students cultivate a network of contacts in the professional security community. Students that sign up for the program are assigned to a participating SSP alumnus or alumna who is employed within a security subfield or organization in which the student has expressed an interest. Ideally, the mentor relationship begins during the student's first semester and progresses to the point where the mentor can make specific career suggestions, serve as a reference and potentially help the student forge additional professional relationships.
How to Register for the Student-Alumni Mentor Program
In order to participate, students are encouraged to schedule a meeting with Payton Tanner to discuss their career goals. In addition, students must submit the following:
- Resume
Once a student has been put into contact with an alumni mentor, he or she is expected to make a good-faith effort to cultivate the relationship. The student-alumni mentor experience can be an extremely rewarding, but like any good relationship, it requires an investment of time and energy.
For alumni interested in participating as a mentor in this program, please complete this application form.
"The connection I made through the mentoring program at SSP has been invaluable to me and my future career. The professional advice given to me by my mentor has also served to allay my fears and give me confidence in my abilities and prospects in the future."—SSP Student, Class of 2009
"My mentor has been a valuable sounding board as I have gone through the job search process. The reassurance I have received has been as valuable as the advice."—SSP Student, Class of 2007
"The mentor experience provided me with an in-depth look on how certain jobs affect one's family life. In that regard, my mentor definitely gave me a lot more things to mull over before jumping into any particular field of work."—SSP Student, Class of 2007

William Faulkner wrote, "History is not was, but is."
Ken Burns' new documentary, The Dust Bowl, is a timely reminder of Faulkner's point. The film's moving interviews with Dust Bowl survivors, photos of decimated landscapes and footage of desperate farmers and struggling communities bring to mind today's images of cornfields shriveled by this summer's drought, mountainsides blackened by wildfires, coastal communities torn apart by Superstorm Sandy.
In a recent interview with The Nature Conservancy, Ken Burns called the Dust Bowl "one of the great cautionary tales of all time." We learned, then, about the need to care for nature. Are we so absorbed today by political division that we cannot or will not heed nature's latest warnings?
In the 1930s, the "black blizzards" of dust blowing across the nation revealed in stark terms the consequences of pushing our natural resources too far. Years of unsustainable agriculture weakened the soil. Land that should have been left in native grasses was plowed up. When a prolonged drought hit, the topsoil dried out and blew away.
But, as in the case of other disasters, Americans found a creative and intelligent response. Heroes emerged, like soil scientist Henry Howard Finnell whose story is told in Burns' film. Finnell pioneered sustainable farming techniques including terraces and contour planting. By reducing runoff and capturing as much moisture as possible, Finnell's ideas helped farmers produce better harvests while keeping soil in place. Areas unsuitable for agriculture were turned back to grassland. By 1939, the Dust Bowl had shrunk to 1/5 of its previous size.
The conservation practices put into place by farmers with assistance from the government helped the nation recover from the Dust Bowl. These farming methods demonstrated very clearly that caring for the land produced better crops and higher profits. Advice and support from the federal government played an important role. Today's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has its roots in our response to the Dust Bowl. This federal agency continues to help farmers and ranchers become better stewards of their land by conserving healthy soil, water and wildlife.
The programs of the NRCS are authorized and funded by the Conservation Title of the Farm Bill, which (while most people don't know it) provides the single largest source of federal funding for conservation. Ironically, as American farmers struggled this summer with another severe drought, re-authorization of the Farm Bill stalled in Congress. The bill expired on September 30, putting its highly cost-effective conservation programs in jeopardy. The Farm Bill can be an ongoing instrument for protecting our nation's soil and water and for discouraging the kind of unsustainable farming practices that led to the Dust Bowl. It has always had strong bi-partisan support. But it languishes now just as parched mid-western landscapes warn us of the need for its continuation.
Over the years, the NRCS and our land grant universities have fostered a deeper understanding of the utility of healthy natural systems -- like how intact wetlands and functioning floodplains reduce polluted runoff and the impacts of floods. Similarly, we have come to understand that intact forests protect our water supplies, and coastal marshes, oyster and coral reefs, and mangroves help to shield communities from storm damage.
In the 1930s and in the last decade we learned that the careless investment of our nation's capital puts our entire financial system in jeopardy. And in the Dust Bowl of the 1930s we saw, as well, that a failure to invest in our natural capital, in the soil, water and wetlands upon which productive agriculture is based, led to disaster. That lesson is no less true today. Even in our urbanized society, the security of our food and water supplies, the safety of our communities from storms and floods and the peace of mind we derive from time in the outdoors are dependent upon continuing investments in nature.
Ken Burns' eloquent film reminds us that the fate of nature and people are bound irrevocably together. We disregard dark clouds of dust looming in the distance at our peril. History is not was, but is.
