text: YALE DOOR AND WINDOW SOLUTIONS MAKES ITS TV DEBUT Yale Door and Window Solutions is making its prime time TV debut to promote its new innovative range of digital door lock solutions Innovators in hardware, Yale Door and Window Solutions has created a dynamic campaign to be aired on ITV meridian east, starting on 15th October during the commercial break in Coronation Street, to promote its new collection of digital door locks to a potential target of 1.7 million people. The Keyfree digital door lock for PVCu doors and Keyless rim latch lock that can be easily installed on 44mm composite door slabs or timber doors, will be presented to offer customers a more stylish and convenient approach to home security. The four week television campaign, commencing on 15th October 212 coincides with the launch of a two week roadshow taking place at Blue Water Shopping Centre in Kent, where the two innovative key less locks will be on display. Says Paul Gravell of Yale Door and Window Solutions: "There is no doubt that television advertising remains one of the most powerful routes to market. We are genuinely excited by the opportunity to promote our state-of-the-art digital locking solutions on such a prime time slot, where statistics suggest an impressive 72% of the region's population will see the advert at least once. "Alongside the roadshows, we hope this significant investment in a continuing difficult economic climate demonstrates to our fabricator and installer customers that we are serious about supporting them, not only in offering innovative product solutions but also in directly encouraging homeowners to consider upgrading their front door security to gain all the benefits of a key less lifestyle." The first advert for Yale Door and Window Solutions will run in Coronation Street on ITV Meridian East on 15th October 2012. For more information on the digital door locking solutions available, please visit www.yaledws.co.uk or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Too many fake profiles and NO customer service
I never had any real big issue with this app before. I know there are real people around my area who use this too because I've seen them on other sites and apps as well, but there seems to be a huge increase of users appearing out of one small town area approx 40 miles away from me. This town is no more than 1,500 population but the users from there vastly outnumber the ones from my town 3-to-1...and my town is over 100,000 population! Doesn't quite make much sense to me and has me thinking these others are all fakes too. But the big thing is that now my own account has been banned, and I can't even find the reason why! I've spent more time deleting chat requests from obvious fake accounts than I have actually spoken with anyone who seemed real, but I'm the one who gets banned. Tried repealing since they give you that option and I've done it twice, yet still no answer back from customer service. It's been 2 weeks before finally throwing my hands up and deleting the app. At least I'm having no issues with their sister app (MeetMe) so I'm just sticking with them. This one has too many bugs, sketchy profiles..oh, and full of annoying ads too!
Skout needs to step to game up big time
It's filled with tons of fake profiles. So many scammers. When trying the Interested feature it tends to show people in all other areas other then the one you're in. News feed is a joke most of the time and should have an option to be able to choose the feeds from only women or men. Trying to send a pic during chat is hit or miss. Most of the time it will say you have to wait till the other person responds back to send a pic even though they just responded a sec before. You never know if it's going to let you send them. The location of people is terrible. The app will often send notifications to your phone and when you log in they disappear. Messages tend to disappear quite often as well. Oh and last but not least the ads on there are put in places where you're very likely to accidentally touch this directing you to many different places. Overall the app needs work and needs to crack down on fake profiles.

Murphy's Law are now a four piece band 🙂
Jens Clarberg, hailing from Malmö, left Sweden in pursuit of a life of music. Stations on his journey so far include Brighton and London, where he studied music, and now Berlin – a great choice, we find, as he joined Murphy's Law in the last summer days of 2016 and is now helping us to rock stages across the city. While the rest of the band are learning bits and pieces of Swedish, Jens is working on the pronunciation of Sláinte and leaving his mark on the characteristic Murphy's Law sound. We welcome our new band member and are looking forward to many memorable four piece gigs together!

johni -- {welcome johni}
johni -- Hi everyone, had great difficulty getting in today

johni -- Looks like I'm the only one here! I'll give it a moment or two
and then I'll go.

ms-ronni -- Sorry to be late had to work this am
ms-ronni -- Hi to all from gloomy michigan
johni -- Hi Mike, where is everyone?
butch -- Good day from rainy Lancaster Penna. It is in the low 40's here today.
ms-ronni -- Well johni you are not alone how about that
johni -- Its dry, but dull and cold here in England
johni -- We had trouble logging on today
ms-ronni -- Here hoping we have some new chatters from the carriers
ms-ronni -- What the problem re logging on?
johni -- We hoped to have my cousin with us. She has recently discovered
that she is a carrier.
mikeg -- I didn't read the subject matter for today's discussion - I'll
try to give my sister in Texas a call and see if she can join in.
ms-ronni -- That would be great mikeg
johni -- It said no chat today until 10.30.am your time
butch -- It looks like rain and cloudy conditions over most of the
nation.I'm not a carrier except to be here for my daughters who are both carriers.
ms-ronni -- Its 10:30 Thanks Butch I am sure you can contribute some info
ms-ronni -- More the merrier. We carriers have bunches of concerns
johni -- Are you in a different part of the country. We thought that we
were 8 hours difference?
ms-ronni -- Michigan USA
ponytail -- {welcome ponytail}
ms-ronni -- Hi ponytail where you from?
johni -- Whoops! my mistake. Should have checked.
ponytail -- MI
butch -- Ronni--I guess you are the moderator for todays discussion. Both
of my daughters have been asked to go down to NIH to give muscle biopsys
and other tests. It was to bee nov 18th but Annette said it has been
postponed until a later date.
ponytail -- first timer please bear with me
ms-ronni -- Butch you have KD?
butch -- Ronni--Yes, unfortunately.
ms-ronni -- Why do they want to take muscle test. Have had DNA test? Are
they having symptoms?
ponytail -- {welcome ponytail}
ms-ronni -- ponytail don't be afraid to add your comments. We will bear with ya
ponytail -- sorry got off accidentially
butch -- One of the most horrible thing we who have KD is that our
daughters, most time, are carriers. I hope that the condition can be
stopped so future generations won't have to deal with KD.
ms-ronni -- Of my two daughters one is a carrier. And has children too
young to know if they are to be affected later. Bummer
butch -- Ronni--Not showing any more symptoms than most. NIH is still
doing research and I guess they want more material to test.
johni -- My cousin had the blood test only because other family members
were KDers. She found she is a carrier. She has grown up children, sons,
she is in turmoil over whether she should tell them and if so how.
ponytail -- ihave recently been dianosed with kd and my concerns are what
my furture has in store for me.
ponytail -- my mother progressively had the shakes
ms-ronni -- If its for research and comparison of our symptoms more power
to them.
ponytail -- it was a family joke that she didn't need a spoon to stir her
her coffee, it was shook by the time it got to her mouth
ms-ronni -- Johni have you cousin read my story. I have to tell my adult
girls.Broke my heart. I cried. Said I am sorry. knowing It is not my
fault. Felt guilty
ms-ronni -- My grammer may be out of context but I hope you are able to
get the idea. I truly get excited and my mind runs faster then my fingers
johni -- No I havent read your story, are you on the KD story site. If so
I could download it for her.
ms-ronni -- Yes the story is there
ponytail -- now after the fact we've assume that there was an unlying
reason for it, as my brother was post-mortum diagnosed with kd
joekerley -- {welcome joekerley}
ponytail -- i'm no longer of child bearing age, but i sympathize with
those who have children
ms-ronni -- Any one else know of carriers with the shakes, tremmer in the
ms-ronni -- Hi joekerley where you from?
joekerley -- Greensboro NC
johni -- I didn't think that shaking was a part of KD, are the doctors
certain it was down to being a carrier
renee -- {welcome renee}
butch -- ponytail--no body knows what is in store for us tomorrow. Live
today to the max and let tomorrow bring what it may. We have alot of
friends on the KD chat who will help you thru KD concerns.
johni -- Amen to that Butch you got it right!
ms-ronni -- Join in joekerley. KD or carrier?
joekerley -- Carrier
ms-ronni -- Hi renee welcome join right in
ponytail -- i take the attitude that god never gave me children because he
knew i wouldn't have been able to handle it...
chuck -- {welcome chuck}
johni -- We don't have children which we regretted bitterly for years, but
now we are glad that we don't
ponytail -- well, i have had the shakes for about 15 years, but attributed
it to nerves. but now that i know i am a carrier like mother like daughter
ms-ronni -- Sometimes things are for the best. But we all adapt to our
situations. Any other carriers with symptoms? I have have some cramping
and twitching. Year back It seem a normal thing. But now with KD a lot of
the carriers have had these symptoms to different degrees. Only research
will confirm or deny.
joekerley -- {welcome joekerley}
ms-ronni -- Hi chuck how are you today?
chuck -- Doing pretty good today thanks.
butch -- Don't forget--we are getting closer everyday to a cure for KD. We
must keep the Drs. and researchers challenged to find that cure.
renee -- I'm a carrier, and I sometimes get the most horrible muscle
cramps in my legs, mostly during the night or when I over-exert myself.
ponytail -- i am now on a anti tremor drug. granted i also have diabetes
but can tell the difference when it caused by my sugar
ms-ronni -- renee are you in mid 30's?
renee -- i'm in my late 20's - 28 to be exact.
ponytail -- when i went to the genetics dept an was interview by the
neurologist, it reminded me that my mother used to get cramps in her legs
really bad.
ms-ronni -- I recall most of my symptoms accured during late 20's and 30's
I am now 60 and only once in a great while i have a cramp or even the
ponytail -- i have gotten cramps too at night and been awoke by them
chuck -- We only had one child, a daughter and she is a confirmed (by NIH)
carrier but thankfully showing no symptoms at all. She is 45 years old.
johni -- I wonder what percentage of carriers actually suffer symptoms
renee -- Yes- they wake me up right out of a dead sleep. I have several
aunts who are carriers, and they get leg cramps also.
ms-ronni -- Chuck Does she have children? And do you know if your repeat
numbers are the same?
chuck -- No, we do not know if repeats are same. The sad part is yes, she
has two daughters. They have not been tested and we are planning to deal
with that soon. They are 17 and 19 so we must start dealing and explaining
more of KD to them. Not a pleasant task.
ms-ronni -- My daughter was having a lot of twitching and had numerous
test done. nothing showed up for a reason. and couldn't be tied in to KD.
As long as it didn't get worse of hinder life...let it be
ponytail -- i was hospitalized for the first time in my adult life last
christmas, then again in jan and over mother's day. to make a long story
short 1st time it was not my heart. 2nd time after many other specialist
we were back looking into the heart. also had a heart biopsy. i even saw
the prof at U of M who said 'If it ain't broke don't fix it'
ponytail -- this all has taken it's toll on me emotionally and mentally,
but like does go on.
ms-ronni -- With in our family 4 brother and myself are affected. Where
was the 50% chance of passing KD on to our children? It showed up with my
2 girls. One is and the other is not a carrier. They were both tested.
ponytail -- has any studies been done on carriers?
joekerley -- Correction I have KD. Confirm in in 1994 at age 65
ponytail -- as the hear is also a muscle, can it have similiar muscle
ms-ronni -- I have a niece just married....my hats off to her. she will be
having a baby in May. We do have a better time with our children. They at
least are able get through childhood and young adulthood. Other types of
MD are hard on families who loose children at a young age.
butch -- This is the quietest bunch of ladies I have ever seen. Do you all
have questions or concerns that we can find answers to help you cope with
being a carrier.
ms-ronni -- THank butch. I guess it take long to type then talk
ponytail -- i guess it's a sensative emotionally matter that we need to
composure ourselves
johni -- I am trying to consider what questions my cousin would want to
ask. She is unable to join me today due to a bereavement.
ms-ronni -- Has everyone seen the question of anonymous testing? Could
this be part of the reason carriers hold back because insurance will pick
up on KD an put their child on a high risk rate?>
johni -- What is anonymous testing ronni?
renee -- I've done lots of research on KD, but sometimes it's hard to know
what to say or ask.
chuck -- I suppose there isn't many carriers on here.
ms-ronni -- Sorry to hear that johni. Have you cousin read the transcript
butch -- I hate having my grandson having a 50/50 chance of contacting KD.
Especially because it comes from me. Also my grandaughter who is only 4
may become a carrier and pass this on to her children. That is very hard
to deal with.
ms-ronni -- Apparently people want to be tested withour linking them to
the KD
renee -- I don't have any kids yet, but I think I would opt for the
anonymous testing.
ms-ronni -- I know of a number of people who paid cash for the test so
insurance would not pick up on it.
johni -- If my cousins children could be tested without their knowledge
they would then not need to know anything unless the blood test showed
them to have KD
ms-ronni -- I know exactly how you feel butch. 2 grand kids (boy & girl)
Its sad but I may never know if they will have a problem. Hope my daughter
and son in law understand how bad I feel.
johni -- My sisters children all got tested without her knowledge, so as
not to worry her unnecessarily. Fortunately they were all clear.
chuck -- NIH claims children cannot be tested until they are 18 years of
age so they can make their own decision.
renee -- I am worried about having children because I know that they have
a 50/50 chance of getting KD or being a carrier. My mother wants me to see
a geneticist to find out what our options are (i.e. pre-implantation
genetic diagnosis, etc.).
butch -- The best I can tell you, to remain anonomyous is to go to NIH to
be tested. They want to test us to find that cure. They keep all reports
on us only to researchers and doctors.
ponytail -- I am a health insurance underwriter and that was one of my
concerns, but at this stage in my life, i don't care. granted i recently
was not given the opportunity to apply for long term care disabiliy, for a
number of reasons.
johni -- I suppose when you see your kids enjoying life totally unaware of
what you know and what it might mean to them it is very hard to deal with
ms-ronni -- That is great johni. And you are right Chuck. Children are not
test so as to grow up to their fullest and not be guided by worried
parents. So they say
ms-ronni -- NIH is what exactly for those who don't know
butch -- National Institute of Health in Bethesda, MD.
chuck -- This too was our understanding Butch. You know back when Charlie
was diagnosed they did put repeats on the DNA. We just got the paperwork
from NIH this week with the results of DNA and number of CAGs. My point is
that the paperwork shows only your name (no SSN) and report is only given
to you unless you state and sign otherwise.
joekerley -- {goodbye joekerley}
ponytail -- i don't know if kd is on a high risk list as it's not that
exposed as others dieseases
ms-ronni -- Thank chuck. info is on the KD websit isn't it?
chuck -- NIH is National Institute of Health and is located in Bethesda,
MD. This is how we met Butch from Lancaster. Dr. Fishbeck is located
there. They phoned for Butch and Charlie to come for muscle biospys.
butch -- Anna Lea--You asked about my CAG repeats. Mine was 47 repeats.
johni -- What are CAG repeats?
ms-ronni -- I am not good at trying to explain about CAG repeats and
wouldn't want to say something wrong. But is part of the Testing that
verifies KD Our website does have more info
ms-ronni -- we are coming down to the wire. 11:30 my time
johni -- Thanks I'll look it up.
butch -- johni--CAG repeats have to do with the DNA tests that they give
for KD. From what I know, the higher the repeats, the quicker or more
severe the onset of KD. Sorry I can't give you a better explanation.
johni -- Thanks butch
chuck -- Oh, Charlie said he is two under you. Could it be the picking up
by the belt????LOL I don't feel qualified in explaining CAGs either. We
needed someone from NIH on here today.
ms-ronni -- I want to take a moment and thank everyone for their input. We
will have another chat soon. I feel this was very good for everyone
ponytail -- weel, time does go by too fast. but it's been interesting and
i think i've got the chat process down. thanks to all for listening to me
chatter. looking forward to the next one. have a thankful and god blessed
holiday now matter how we preceive our lives things could always be worse.
ms-ronni -- Maybe we can get someone in authority for a chat. I'll ask
johni -- Yes. Thanks. Perhaps I can get my cousin along to the next one.
butch -- Not only are you ladies carriers, but, you are also care givers.
We who have KD thank you.
ms-ronni -- Thanks butch
johni -- Hear hear Butch
johni -- Bye everyone thanks for the chat!
johni -- {goodbye johni}

(AP Photo/Seth Wenig) (Newser) – Today's entry in the annals of ill-advised ideas: Alec Baldwin, currently the subject of controversy over his recent use of at least one anti-gay slur, tried to defuse the situation yesterday ... by jokingly pretending to be gay. At a tech conference in San Francisco, Baldwin expressed remorse over his comments, then asked a member of his team to stand up. "I want you to be my lover, Matt," he said, according to the AP. "I love you, Matt. I love you in that way." He went on to clarify that he has never actually loved a man sexually. (Read more Alec Baldwin stories.)

Little kids get it sometimes. I had never even seen a black person in real life and I knew that people were people and that treating some different on account of skin color was wrong. I heard adults around me in my conservative rural home town make cracks that I just knew were wrong. I heard snippets of speeches on the radio and on the black and white television that had to warm up before you could watch it and I saw photographs in magazines and I knew there were important people out there risking everything to make the world a little more fair and just. I cheered them on in my young head. Years later when there was talk of making this day a national holiday, I again heard voices saying things like 'Why does it have to be a holiday?" or "He was just a trouble maker" and again, I cheered on those working for a better world. A little bolder by that age, I actually took a verbal stand for the idea now and then. I am glad I raised my kids in a time when things are nearer to fair and proud that they are both supporters of Barrack Obama and proud that they talk to me about such things. Maybe by the time they have kids, the little ones will come to their old grandma to ask about the 60s, incredulous that a time could have ever been when skin color meant a person was treated poorly. Can we hope for such progress when little kids can hardly believe that such a thing happened?
Happy Martin Luther King, Junior Day! Enjoy your day off and ponder the future with me.

Of all the games I've tried to teach over the years, none has generated more blank stares than Terra Mystica. A heavy euro, the game features a confusing magic system, tons of different races to play each with their own special abilities, and enough wooden pieces to deforest a small nation. While complicated, once it clicks it's a fantastic game.
If you've been scared off from playing the physical version, or just haven't heard of it, you're in luck. DIGIDICED has announced that they're working on a mobile version of Terra Mystica for release in Q1 of 2017.
For those of you who were not at #Spiel2016 We are working on a digital version of Terra Mystica by Feuerland Spiele @Zmangames_ ETA Q1 17 pic.twitter.com/CZFwcRjHLy
— Digidiced (@digidiced) October 21, 2016
You might remember DIGIDICED from their rather great ports of 2-player euros from designer Uwe Rosenberg: Patchwork, Le Havre: The Inland Port, and Agricola: All Creatures Big and Small. This will be their first foray into the heavy euro scene, so it will be interesting to see how they pull it off. Their previous titles have all been released for both iOS and Android, so we're expecting the same of Terra Mystica, although all we currently know for certain is what you see in their tweet up above.

A sneak peek of Rihanna's new music video for her latest single "Russian Roulette" was released today. The entire video will premiere tomorrow on 20/20. The song is a gloomy ballad about a dangerous love affair and is a featured track on RiRi's latest album Rated R, out on Nov. 23. The album shows a new, darker side of the singer. She told reporters that inspiration for her new album was "personal experiences, mixed with rock and hip-hop."
"It was very vulnerable for me," she said. "I'm usually a very guarded person so having to go in and reach for emotions and personal things to say it was very vulnerable."

Storms this week - Greater Anglia kept moving
Posted: Thu 20 Jul, 2017 2:29 pm
I was actually surprised following the thunder and lightning on Tuesday evening that the trains from Hertford East were not disrupted at all. No floods, no lightning strikes, and I got to work on time. I will have to remember that next time I am turfed off at Broxbourne with no notice!

Marker - Center of Guanacaste
Guanacaste is one of the favorite of Costa Rica's Provinces for many people, tourists and Tico's alike. It is home to an incredible tropical dry forest and boasts a perpetual summer-like climate, beautiful sun-drenched beaches, a wonderfully rich culture that is distinctly "Guanacastico", beautiful, friendly people, and a fantastic selection of consistent beachbreaks, pointbreaks, rivermouths, and inner and outer reefs that give surfers pretty much what they want - great waves! Ollies Point, Witch's Rock, Playa Grande, Tamarindo, Playa Langosta, Avellanes, and Playa Negra are some of the better known surf spots in North Guanacaste.
Along the Pacific coastline North Guanacaste would stretch from about Play Negra/Playa Langosta north to the Nicaraguan border. Inland, North Guanacaste would extend a bit more eastward than National Rt. 1. The province of Guanacaste also extends the length of the Nicoya Peninsula.
Prior to the arrival of the Spaniards, the area that now makes up Guanacaste was inhabited by primarily two indigenous groups, the Chorotega and the Corobicies. The Chorotega were fairly widespread in the area with the Corobicies living mostly on the eastern shore of the Gulf of Nicoya and in the zone of Bagaces.
When the Central American countries gained independence from Spain the "Guanacaste" area was part of Nicaragua. It was in 1824-1825 that the people of the Guanacaste territory voted to annex the territory to Costa Rica and became part of the Republic of Costa Rica. The mix of Indigenous, Spanish, and Nicaraguan cultures spawned a music and folklore rich modern "Guanacastico" culture.
Northern Guanacaste is basically a dry, relatively flat area that is very dry, and hot, from November to April. It is a perfect getaway for North Americans escaping cold winters and is also a vacation destination for many Ticos from the cooler Central Valley (San Jose) area. From May to October/November North Guanacaste climate cools down some but is a little warmer, on average, than the Central Valley area. It experiences about the same rainfall during that period as San Jose, but not as much as the southern and eastern tropical rainforest zones.

What a fine looking pair! We had just chased the final cow through the gate. Looks like Mariah still wants to keep chasing them.
So we did. After you sort the cows yo have to move them back to the first pen so that the next pair can sort them all over again.
The first time I went in I thought that Mariah was going to spook at the cows. She didn't. We walked up to the first cow and she put her nose on it with out a flinch. One of the helpers was with us to show us what to do and tell us how to pick a cow and cut it out of the herd. After he helped us checked out a couple of more cows he proclaimed that Mariah was going to be a fine cow horse. He left us so Mariah and I could sort the remainder of the cows. And we got it done.
At first I thought cutting the cows out of the herd was going to be the hard part. It was easier than I thought. There are some tricks I need to work on to get better at cutting a specific cow out while leaving the remainder of the herd alone. If you get them too excited it makes it hard on the gate rider. All the cows end up running towards the gate and the gate rider cannot keep them all out. Turns out the gate rider has the harder job. I thought the gate rider had to keep the cows in but that is not the case. Once the cows are in they are perfectly happy to stay in. No, the gate rider is there to keep the cows out until their number is up.
It actually got a little harder as the day went on. Mariah started to feel more comfortable with the cows so she started picking up on my excitement a bit more. It was harder to keep her from charging into the cows and scattering them all over. I remembered Jane's (from The Literary Horse) mantra, "Don't scare the cows" and tried that. As I moved into the cows, I kept saying to myself, "Don't scare the cows," which served to calm me down. When I calmed down, Mariah calmed down and we did a bit better. We had an absolute blast.
Kumi and Kira came along but did not ride. They just watched and took pictures and videos. They did get a bit bored and I can't blame them (I have sat through my fare share of Westernaires practices) but they thought it looked like fun. Next time, and there will be a next time, they want to ride their own horses.
I mentioned that there was video. Here it is. This is the first time I tried to take a video from our camcorder and put it on the internet. As such, it didn't turn out quite as nice as I would have liked. I will keep practicing. In the mean time, here is the video evidence of my riding "prowess"!
0:00 to 1:00 - Second half of the my first run (Video crew distracted during first half)
1:00 to 1:10 - Random horse drinking water and the ground (Gotta love the video crew)
1:10 to 2:50 - Second run with my trainer Carly. It was a perfect run!
2:50 to end - A pony the video crew loved.
All told, I think I got in about 5 runs. The second run with my trainer, Carly, was perfect. I think it took us a bit longer than the 60 seconds allotted but we got the cows into the the sorting pen in the correct order. After lunch Mariah was a bit more excited so we didn't finish all of our runs in the allotted time. Still, there will be a second and third and more chapters to this story. It takes all the things I have been working with Mariah on and brings them together.
While standing in line we have to side pass our way to the front of the line. In the arena she has to respond to leg cues immediately and needs to stop on a dime. Participating in this provides a little incentive to get out and do more work with my horse. Which is a great way to spend a few hours anyway.
So there you have it. A first timers visit to a ranch sorting. Looking forward to more.

What you're looking at to the left is NOT a tree, but rather a giant cell phone tower. Isn't it pretty? Now, here's the good news (NOT)... they are planning to put one up right on the other side of our property. Yes, just a few hundred feet from Barnashram, the bastion of simplicity, spirituality, organic, natural anti-"civilization" living, they are planning to build a (get this!) "120 foot tall wireless communications tower - STEALTH MONOFIR DESIGN." (Their words, not mine!!!)
You see, there are only so many objections you can make to technology, and since President Clinton signed into law the telecomunications act of 1996 (yes 15 years ago), it is illegal to bring up health issues when commenting on cell phone towers. Of course, in that 15 years, hundreds, if not thousands of studies have been done showing the dangers of EMF and RF emissions with human and environmental health impacts, and hundreds of tumors, cancer clusters, and other miseries perpetrated, but we're not allowed to mention that. So, you're stuck with environmental impact, how they look (thus pretty green cell towers), and mostly, HOW THEY WILL IMPACT PEOPLE FINANCIALLY. In other words, if we can prove that we will lose money (like we have any to lose), by that monstrosity being here, we might have a case. (It's ALWAYS about money. We're just trying to serve God and Mother Earth, but that don't matter in this culture, does it?)
So, I feel like I'm back in the 60's (1-2-3-4....We won't fight your F**KIN' WAR!)
We were sent this "14 Day Opportunity To Comment" on Saturday. We happened to go the mailbox on Sunday, and realized we were screwed. So, I quickly called the Multnomah Land Use and Transportation Program to call Kevin Cook (503-988-3043 ext. 26782 hint hint) only to find out their offices are closed on Mondays. I called them twice today, only to be told he was swamped and that I should leave a message, and that he would get back to me within 48 hours. After the second call, I received a call back from the very nice receptionist promising that he would call me back tomorrow (Thursday). Remember now, we're less than 8 days from the end of the comment period.
Now, the instructions say, "Written comments regarding this application will be accepted if received...by 4:00 pm, April 22nd, 2011" So, in the meantime, I don't know if calling them or emailing them (firstname.lastname@example.com hint hint) will do any good, or if it has to be in writing to:
Kevin Cook
Multnomah County
Land Use and Transporation Program
1600 SE 190th Avenue
Portland, Oregon 97233
(and once again)
503-988-3043 ext. 26782
Case File: T2-2011-1484
I might also mention that you could call the Site Acquisition Manager
Mr. Noah Grodzin with Cascadia PM (psst... isn't that a nice GREEN name? Now go to this link http://www.cascadiapm.com/cpmprojects.htm and look at their client list). He can be reached at:
Mr. Noah Grodzin
This whole thing is simply overwhelming. I have talked to people at Respectpdx.com who have been wonderful!!! As well as folks who helped defeat a similar tree up near Mt. Hood, also connected to Mr. Grodzin (interesting that they claim to have a 100% success rate...Cascadiapm that is). The problem is they have given me a wealth of information, areas of research (environmental impact, historical, Native American, marshland etc.), and I don't even know where to begin. Others have suggested finding a lawyer to handle it pro-bono, canvassing the neighbors (yeah, me, who can barely walk up to the car), and a few suggestion I would of course NEVER do, like filling nice environmentally green garbage bags full of waste and leaving them in the yard of the owners of the land (who surprisingly DON'T live where the tower is going), or just waiting for them to build it, and then in a giant act of rebellion as Derrick Jensen would suggest, blow it up. But again, I want to emphasize that I, nor any one on this property would EVER do that or propose it. My best thought is that if anyone knows where I can find a 250 foot dog to pee on the tree.....
I did call the land owners, by the way, in hopes that they might have a conscience. They didn't answer, but I did leave a cordial message. (I do have their number if anyone wants it.) You see, they tried to sell the land but couldn't, so they're growing christmas trees or something, (including a 120 foot metal one - I don't think you'd even have to plug in any lights that you hung on that tree...they'd just glow!). So, they opted to lease the land. No one will tell me how much they'll get, but the people near Mt. Hood would have received, and a general average is around $1,500.00 per month for 30 years or something like that. (Geez, if we made that much, we'd be well off...why didn't we sell out first!?)
So, time is short, and if we've helped you in any way, if you would like to see Barnashrram remain as free from EMF and RF or whatever rays, for environmental, financial (you won't make donations ?), philosophical, spiritual, organic, or you're just plain fed up with their being NO PLACE where you feel you can get away from the MADNESS that is this 'civilization', THEN PLEASE HELP US! Many of you I have spent countless hours talking with, consoling, and yes, occasionally even cajoling into Awareness, (for no charge I might add). So, maybe you could take a moment to send a letter or postcard to the above address, or make a quick phone call or email, or pray.... (maybe that it gets hit by lightning if it is built).
My other option is the one I have been working on...."Be at peace, and die well". I guess I can put that off for another 8 days at least. Oh, one more link if you want it... here is the 14 day comment sheet we got in the mail (It's a 10 page PDF):
(Imagine....someone trying to out-buzzkill Buzzkill Baba!!!)
And do try to remember... I love you madly and passionately, even if I sometimes don't seem to act like it.
In Holy Love,
Many of you have blessed us by writing letters of your own to Mr. Cook of Multnomah County expressing your opposition to the proposed tower. Others, not sure what to write, have asked us for a letter or some kind of guidelines. The letter that follows is VERY closely based on the letter I sent. Ideally, you might take some of the salient points, along with any others the occur to you, and write your own letter. When I say letter, I HAVE confiirmed that any emails are considered letters, so you don't need to 'mail' them in, simply email them. BUT they should be emailed before 4:00 pm Pacific Time, this coming Thursday.
With Many Heartfelt Thanks and Deep Love & Gratitude,
Email your letter to:
Kevin Cook

Re: Case # T2-2011-1484, location: 10509 NW Cornelius Pass Rd
Dear Mr. Cook,
I'm writing on behalf of the Bhaktivedanta Society, Inc., a 501c3 religious non-profit organization that owns the land immediately adjacent (south) of the above property where an AT&T Cell Tower site has been proposed. We are opposed to the construction of this cell phone tower.
For more than 20 years the people at Barnashram, the spiritual and farming community residing at that property have sought to create an escape from the myriad pollutants of the city (including the many radio, cell, telephone, gas, billboards, buildings, etc.), and to create a place for others to similarly escape and find a sanctuary from the insanity and stresses of daily life!
While it has become apparently "normal" for people to think they can live in such a polluted atmosphere, and to defend such lifestyles, nearly everyone will admit that they like to escape that atmosphere thick with stress and negativity and retreat to a place which represents the basic tenets of places like Barnashram - Simplicity, Spirituality, & Community. I certainly do, and the construction of this cell phone tower would certainly have a negative impact on that positive lifestyle and the number of us that find solace there. While we may not be able to legally address health or energy issues with regard to the cell tower, it is obviously this kind of technological device is in direct opposition to the simplicity and purity that they have so lovingly tried to offer us.
While we can't directly say what the cell towers effects are on our living cells, our brains, and systems of the body, there are ever increasing studies both from the U.S. and abroad that show significant negative impact on human physiology as well as the lives and living patterns of non-human species as well - including reproductive and migratory patterns.
Recognizing that there are some who would like better cell phone coverage, I would suggest that it really isn't needed. Anyone who lives in this area can certainly get landline coverage at a fraction of the cost of cell phones. So, it would really only be helping those who are driving. Cornelius Pass Road has already been dubbed "The Ribbon of Death" for good reason. It is a treacherous road. The residents of Barnashram have personally had to discover two dead bodies feet from their front yard, numerous accidents through their property line and fences, and road closures in front of their home because of multi-car accidents. Do you suppose we need MORE people talking and texting illegally on this road?
And truly, in your hearts, which would you rather have for yourself or your children - a better ability to spend additional time plugged into their cell phones, texting, emailing, twittering, facebooking, under the shade of a giant electric stealth "tree", or sitting amidst real, living trees, healthy trees and eating fresh, organic produce, lovingly planted and harvested, free from as much negative EMF and RF emissions as possible, and the possible negative impact of an out of balance environment where the birds, bees, and other required components of a healthy world, are fully alive and present?
Please don't take this away from us, the many who currently need and appreciate it and those who will seek it out in the future; please don't take it away from yourselves and your children!
I would like to simply add a quote from Albert Einstein, one of the greatest and certainly most loved scientists of the last centuury, who I believe was not speaking only to nuclear devices, but all technology when he said,
"It has become appallingly clear that our technology has surpassed our humanity."
With Hope and with Love,
(Your name obviously)
A friend of Barnashram

The Poorhouse Fair (Penguin Modern Classics)By: John Updike (author)Paperback
Up to 2 WeeksUsually despatched within 2 weeks
DescriptionAt the Diamond County Home for the Aged, the inmates prepare for the annual ritual of the Poorhouse Fair, a summer celebration at which the old and infirm sell their produce on stalls to the people of the local town. Bitter, resentful and edging towards senility, the elderly residents of the Home take pride every year in the responsibility and self-respect they gain from this one day. But when the fair goes less well than the old folks had hoped, they are in no doubt who to blame: Conner, the new prefect of the home. Together, they begin to revolt against the younger man, and reassert their own independence.

He is the author of over fifty books, including The Poorhouse Fair; the Rabbit series (Rabbit, Run; Rabbit Redux; Rabbit Is Rich; Rabbit At Rest); Marry Me; The Witches of Eastwick, which was made into a major feature film; Memories of the Ford Administration; Brazil; In the Beauty of the Lilies; Toward the End of Time; Gertrude and Claudius; and Seek My Face. He has written a number of collections of short stories, including The Afterlife and Other Stories and Licks of Love, which includes a final Rabbit story, Rabbit Remembered. His essays and criticism first appeared in publications such as the New Yorker and the New York Review of Books, and are now collected into numerous volumes. Collected Poems 1953-1993 brings together almost all of his verse, and a new edition of his Selected Poems is forthcoming from Hamish Hamilton.

The Waffle Hut was crowded, and none of the six strangers in line were in the mood to wait another half hour or so when the table finally opened up, so they were seated together, 'family style' as their hostess Marge mentioned.
None came from Kingsport, but two, at least, were not complete strangers. Marge Swanson recognized Annie Marsters as Irma's grand-daughter, and insisted that she eat for free. Biff Erickson spoke briefly with Herman Joseph about his new position on the Kingsport Mariners minor league baseball team, and arranged to meet him at Mariners Park later on that day.
Once they had ordered their breakfast, Andy Sullivan, the town's Deputy Sheriff ran into the diner to talk to Sheriff Roy Murthy about something important. A bemused Bethany Carver overheard the Sheriff and Deputy Andy discussing 'more zombies than usual' at the cemetary. Andy and Roy collected Herman Joseph, the town's mortician and baseball enthusiast, and left the Waffle Hut, but not before Herman dropped his diary.
Biff was the only one of the newcomers to Kingsport who saw what happened when the book dropped. A cloud of sinister smoke come out of the book and enveloped the six strangers. Herman gathered up the book and left with the police officers, but the cloud remained. He watched in surprise as the restaurant cleared out of regulars, as Marge frowned and nodded at the patrons. The rest of his table mates sat in a stupor, only coming out of it once the locals had left.
Once the cloud had dissipated and everyone had finally come to their senses, the bus boy, Miguel, passed in front of the place where the book had fallen and slipped on what appeared to be ice cube. He lost his balance, knocking a knife off a nearby table with his tray of dirty dishes. The knife ricocheted off one of the stools at the breakfast counter and impaled the poor busboy's left eyeball. Miguel fell to the floor, his head hitting the stool snapping his neck with an audible crack.
Marc Newton and Bethany Carver ran forward to see if there was anything they could do to assist while Marge called for emergency services. By the time Marc was quite certain he was dead, Miguel had begun to stir and moan, and shambled to his feet. The reanimated Miguel lunged at Otto, the diner's gruff waiter. The kitchen staff dispatched Miguel with shocking quickness.
At this time it was noticed that all of those eating at the table had a strange cross-like tattoo on their right hands (something none of them had had before). Marge and her staff tried to calm the customers down. Rita and Cookie paid special attention to Annie, noting that she seemed a little freaked out by what was going on. Cookie, a large Hispanic man with kind eyes and a soft smile gave his prized Frying Pan to Annie for protection and Marge told her to visit her grandmother. Freddy Hsu, the town's medical examiner came to collect the body. Freddy and the diner staff seemed to act as if this kind of thing happened every day. Since this strangeness all seemed to arise from Herman Joseph, the group decided to go to the police station and find out how to get this darn tattoo off of their hands. To make matters worse, the tattoo seemed to be filling in with a kind of blood red ink. That's never a good sign.
Herman was immediately implicated, as being the town's voodoo practitioner. He refused to speak to the police. He was a little more forthcoming when he spoke to Marc (who got access to the interrogation room by dint of his Federal Agent status). According to Herman, he had nothing to do with this curse. It must have been an attack meant for him. Miguel and the visitors just happened to get in the way. He seemed to think his brother Joseph was behind all of this, and that it must have had something to do with what had happened at the crypt the night before. He was woken up around midnight by some noise in the graveyard, but though it was just his brother Joseph doing something that didn't concern him. He told Marc to investigate the crypt and find out what his brother was up to. As Marc was wrapping up his interrogation, he noticed a three leg mark on Herman's arm (which he also refused to comment on).
Annie wanted nothing to do with investigating a crypt full of zombies, so Deputy Andy gave the three men an extra shovel that he had and directed them to the Funeral Home and Cemetery, where he would meet them after he drove Annie to the medical center where her grandmother was being looked after. Chardonnay Crystal Glass went with Anny as did Bethany who wanted to take her own car to this investigation of the cemetery (and to pick up her 9mm automatic out of her glove compartment). Biff, Marc and Flint McNitty went directly to the funeral home, where they saw apparent undead shambling around behind the fence that enclosed the cemetery. They waited in the parking lot for Andy to meet them. While they waited the three men searched the outside of funeral home and grabbed a Tire Iron from the shed in case they had to deal with those rotting corpses before Andy returned.
Annie and Chardonnay spoke to Irma, who explained that she had spent many years fighting against the forces of chaos and disaster that swirled around Kingsport, and that her son James (Annie's father) had wanted nothing to do with that life for either himself or his family. She was recovering from some sort of attack herself, and was not well enough to join the fight directly, but she feared the mark of the cross was a bad omen indeed. She told Annie and Chardonnay to talk to Alice Young at the University library.
Meanwhile, Andy and Bethany met the others at the cemetery, and were soon battling zombies (who were frightening but slow). They cut a swath of re-death and destruction Flint was sure that these souls were actually alive and just corrupted by voodoo zombie powder. He was positive that he saw the marks of power and tried to remove themfrom the walls while the others bashed undead heads. They fought the corpses of those awaiting internment, and other corpses throughout the cemetery. They cleared the cemetery and made their way to the crypt in the far corner, re-killing about 20 corpses along the way. All the while Bethany filmed this macabre battle, thinking that there must be some kind of scam going on here.
When they arrived at the crypt, they found a different kind of animated corpse, ones who looked like a recently executed paramilitary force. While battling these stronger zombies, Biff broke his precious baseball bat, and ran back to the funeral home to get Roberto Alomar's bat, which Herman had kept on display as his new weapon. Biff liked the idea of showing off his zombie killing prowess in an attempt to curry the favor of the very hot Bethany.
In the crypt itself they found (very fresh seeming) zombies dressed in robes, like they were in a kind of religious cult. There were also signs that a 4 foot by 4 foot object was removed from the crypt, judging from the signs in the dust. The scene looked like the robed cult members tried to fend off an assault from approximately 10 men in paramilitary gear. At least two of the paramilitary assailants survived to leave via helicopter. Flint said definitively that it was a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk, rigged for stealth incursion, based on the skid marks made in the field next to the crypt.
Meanwhile, Annie and Chardonnay spoke with the young librarian, Alice, who thought the marks were signs of an ancient Mayan Talking Cross. Chardonnay noticed that Alice had an interesting cat tattoo peeking out of her left bosom. Although Alice was leery of Chardonnay (apparently sensing in her some association with the Hogwolep family) she agreed to offer information.
Annie found out that Irma used to head the university's Archeology Department and that Marge, Cookie, and the rest of the Waffle Hut employees worked for her, 'helping her' find 'things'. Grandma Irma left the university a few years ago to open her own antique shop, but she still 'consulted' with the university on occasion.
According to Alice's associate Dr. Goodman Greensmith, Chairman of the Department of Noetic Science, they were doomed to die within the month unless the cross itself could be found and destroyed (he suggested the fires of Mt. Doom, or some similar combination of temperature/pressure), though he did not know where they could find the cross. Apparently it had disappeared sometime during the late 1700s, but there were also reports that the cross resurfaced sometime in 1941, during the Nazi's insatiable hunt for antiquities with an occult association. He handed Annie his card, one with a similar cat marking as seen on Alice's chest. He instructed her to call him if she needed anything, and that he would let her know if he found out anything as well. The front of the card just had the mark of the cat and an Egyptian symbol below it. The back of the card just had a phone number and under it were the words 'Servants of Bast'.
Annie and Chardonnay were instructed to go back to the police station and meet up with the rest of their group.
(to be continued…)
Thanks Lise for the excellent write-up. I edited it a little to add and clarify some information

Linked to @
After being inspired by all of the awesome DIY blogs out there, I thought I'd add my 2 cents. This blog will be filled with projects, ideas, inspiration and product reviews. Please enjoy!
Beautiful job! I am sure that was a lot of work!! I was actually thinking as I was looking at the pictures that it would be pretty if you stained the top dark and painted the bottom white or cream but I like this too. And you are right... after a few more moves it will have to be redone. In our recent PCS move, our dining room table got messed up and they put a big hole in one of my living room end tables. Oh fun times!! lol
Thanks for linking up again! :)
What a HUGE JOB! I can't believe you also had two babies also. You're superwoman :) It turned out great. I'd love for you to add this to my link party, "Sweets This Week" @ www.sugarbananas.blogspot.com
It looks really nice - I'm glad you kept it "wood" and didn't just paint it. So much prettier this way!
Aw, thanks! Like I said, I love it! I wanted it dark because it shares a room with our family room which has dark wood furniture, so I wanted the flow to be nice...
Allison - the original paint job was much like you described... a dark top with a faux finish light colored bottom, I just wanted a change ;).
the total process took about 2 weeks to complete, but I think it still needs one more coat of poly.

Something New.
Note to Self: Steady manifest that destiny
I haven't been on here in a bit but felt I needed to offer and explanation no matter how vague…
I am working on a new project right now of epic proportions. No-this is not an overstated delusion. Although, given my history, it would be well within your right to initially assume so. Whatever. Regardless, I wanted to let all of you know that I may be absent for some time but upon returning their will definitely be "more intenserty". Exciting and unimaginable things have been happening in my life. I accredit this to total surrender and favor. So for now, I'll leave you with a poem I've recently written. Completely unrelated to anything or anyone…of course. ttyl.
A poem for you.
I like that part
on your upper lip
i can smell
when we kiss.
denim knee knocking
when we sit close
let's examine
eachothers features.
i'm delighted to meet
your acquaintance.
Now quick!
Lets get acquainted!
Tell me one thing
two things
it's nice
the way your mouth
when you speak to me.
go ahead,
give purpose
to your lip pursing.
and while you're at it
kiss me again.
i want to smell that smell.

More warm, acidic oceans will require greater reef careFebruary 15th, 2011 - 5:32 pm ICT by ANI
Washington, Feb 15 (ANI): A new study has said that the more our oceans become warmer and acidic, the harder we will have to work to save our coral reefs.
Dr Ken Anthony of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies and The University of Queensland's Global Change Institute has found that reefs already overfished and affected by land runoff are likely to be more vulnerable to increasing CO2 in the atmosphere caused by the burning of fossil fuels.
"As CO2 levels climb to 450-500 parts per million - as they are now expected to do by 2050 - how well we manage local impacts on reefs like fishing and runoff will become absolutely critical as to whether they survive as coral reefs, or are overtaken by algae that compete with corals for space on reefs," Anthony said.
While warmer waters cause bleaching, CO2 dissolving out of the atmosphere weakens the corals by interfering with their ability to form their skeletons, making them more vulnerable to impact by storms.
The team's study has far-reaching implications for the preservation even of well-managed reefs as well as reefs in developing countries, where most reefs are located and where reefs face high levels of stress from human activities.
"Put simply, our model indicates that the more CO2 we humans liberate, the harder it will become for coral reefs, as we know them, to survive. This means they will need all the help they can get in the way of good management to prevent their being overgrown by sea weeds," he said.
"Coral reefs in developing nations, where most of the world's reefs occur and overfishing and nutrification remain key concerns, are particularly vulnerable, highlighting the need to continue to build capacity amongst reef managers and governments in areas like SE Asia," the authors say.
"A failure to rapidly stabilize and reduce the concentration of CO2 in the Earth's atmosphere is likely to lead to significant loss of key (coral) framework builders such as Acropora, irrespective of the effectiveness of local management," the scientists conclude.
"However local reef management efforts to maintain high grazing fish populations and prevent runoff of silt, fertilisers and sewage from the land will play a critical role in maintaining coral resilience while CO2 concentrations are stabilized," they added.
Their paper was recently published in the journal Global Change Biology. (ANI)

First is Monsoon from James C. Brett. It's an Aran weight yarn (18 sts. per 4 inches, or between worsted and chunky), that is 70% acrylic and 30% wool. It's machine washable, and has long colors. Perfect for entrelac! Two skeins are enough for a scarf. It's very soft. You'll love it!
Next is a really fun new novelty yarn from Trendsetter. It's called Improv. Much like Cha Cha, it's a combination of strings and blocks, and you knit it to create fluffly, squishy ruffles. I've just started working with it this evening. It's crazy fun.
Regia Extra Twist Merino made its first appearance last fall, and flew off the shelves. We have a couple of new colors, and still have the great pattern book that features this lovely sock yarn with a spray-dye effect.
Jen just finished this sample scarf in our new yarn from Classic Elite called Vail. It's a fingering weight blend of bamboo and alpaca. Light, soft, and gorgeous, we are all completely in love with it. This scarf is one of many in a great new book from Classic Elite called Panache.

Master with behavior problems? Too bossy? Thinks he owns the house? Not enough treats? Ask Dr. MacGregor and master your master's will !
I'm very sorry to hear that your dog has such a bad temper!
I have my Westy for almost a year now and she never has biten or even tried to. The worst thing she does is sometimes barking but as soon as I say "Hoy" wich is her word to stop. She stops (sometimes )imediatly!
They are, as I read somewhere, a small dog with a Great Dane inside! You must show him who's the boss.
The best punishment is not looking at him. pretend you don't care about him. For my Westie, that works very good.
I have a pet shop in Portugal and my Westie goes there everyday with me. She's the Welcoming party of the shop asking for petting and licking everybody. I have people that goes there everyday just to say "hello" to Wendy!
When I started to hear stories about bad tempered Westie, I was very surprised!
Hope you can figure out how to stop his bitting habit. He seems a very nervous dog.
All the best!
Jose and Wendy!!!
Mainly the problem is that Lori's dog is still a puppy and has too much energy. Also males are ususally a bit more bossy than female Westies.
I don't think that we are talking about a "bad dog", he just gets too excited and kind of looses it. While he is young it's important to get him off this habit and control too exciting situations, so that he doesn't get scared or too wind up and also that this behaviour doesn;t become usual.
All the best,
Dr. MacGregor

Four seasons ago, when he was an impressionable rookie linebacker for the Detroit Lions, Chris Spielman discovered the emotional bond between the team and its fans at the Silverdome.
"It was discouraging to have fans throw beer and pop on you," Spielman recalled. "It was discouraging to get booed as you left the field."
And that was from the loyal fans, the ones who still bothered to come as the Lions continued to lose the majority of their games. For some home appearances, the 80,494-seat domed stadium would be half-empty.
Even this season, as the Lions set a franchise record of 12 victories, two home games drew crowds of 43,132 and 44,479. Only two games in the regular season were sold out. And the weather indoors was perfect.
This week, following Detroit's first post-season victory in 34 years, there is an air of disbelief around town as the team prepares to play the Washington Redskins Sunday at R.F.K. Stadium in the National Conference championship game, with the winner advancing to the Super Bowl. But Are They Really Good?Continue reading the main story
Their current seven-game winning streak hasn't quite convinced the jaded public here that the Lions belong in the final four with the Redskins, the Buffalo Bills and the Denver Broncos or even alongside the local Big Three -- the Pistons, the Red Wings and the Tigers -- who still get the lions' share of fan loyalty here.
"The bandwagon isn't even out there yet," said Denny McLain, the former Tigers' pitcher who now hosts a popular radio talk show. "People aren't convinced about the Lions. They really aren't. Everyone is still stunned."
In the three previous seasons, the Lions won six, seven and four games. Before this season, their last winning year was 1983, with a 9-7 record. In 1991, they went 12-4.
"There have been so many negatives around here," said McLain. "They beat Green Bay and Tampa Bay and people say, 'Yeah, but it was only Green Bay and Tampa Bay.' Except for the injuries, they've been getting every break and every bounce. They may have a hair more respect now than they had last week, before they beat Dallas, but there is not yet this overwhelming respect. Now, if they beat Washington, things could change."
Can the Lions upset the Redskins, who are favored by about two touchdowns? Can they return to the title match for the first time since 1957, when their home field was called Briggs Stadium and the Super Bowl was called the N.F.L. Championship Game?
"I don't know if it would be one of the greatest upsets in sports history," said Spielman. "I know we can beat them."
A gruff Ohio State product, Spielman is an All-Pro and the leading tackler of the Detroit defense. His chin has a stubble of beard. When he talks, he shuffles his feet and casts his eyes downward. During a 10-minute conversation, he broke into a smile only once.
"I guess you can't tell, but I'm having a million laughs," he said. "What would be fun would be winning the Super Bowl and walking off the field."
Certainly they are riding high on emotional momentum and rolling sevens with every pass of the dice. Well-known is the players' dedication of the season to Mike Utley, the lineman who was paralyzed from the chest down in a game earlier this season. The players wear his number, 60, on their helmets and wear T-shirts under their uniforms in his honor. Less publicized are the initials "JRT" they wear on their uniforms.
It is in memory of John Russell (Russ) Thomas, the former executive vice president and general manager, who died in his sleep on March 16, 1991. Thomas, who worked for the team in various roles for 43 years, was a controversial figure in recent decades as top aide to William Clay Ford, the owner.
His critics, many of them players, said the Thomas regime hurt the team with poor drafts, protracted salary disputes and interference with the many coaching staffs that came and went. His supportors cited his loyalty to Ford, a member of Detroit's automotive royal family. William Clay is the grandson of Henry I and the brother of Henry II.
Even in death, Thomas remains a controversial figure. A local newspaper columnist suggested that perhaps Thomas should get some of the credit for the current success because he assembled much of the current organization. Another columnist pointed out that the Lions didn't become winners until Thomas was dead and gone.
Thomas was an assistant coach for the Lions during their last great era, when they won three N.F.L. championships and lost one title game during the 1950's. It was a heady time for the local auto industry, a time of "by day I make the cars, by night I make the bars," when Bobby Layne was the hard-living, hard-playing hero and about two million people lived within the city limits to staff the booming car factories. Hoping for the Good Ol' Days
When the Lions left the city for the suburbs in 1975, they were the first local sports team to do so and became symbolic of the city's decline. The Pistons soon followed them, and the Tigers are considering it. The city population has fallen to about one million.
To commute around those suburbs and to those suburban stadiums, the people need cars, and Mel Farr sells plenty of them. One of the great running backs of Lions' history, Farr has several suburban car dealerships here. The original, and best-known, sells Fords. But on the way to the Silverdome, the pickup truck that passes you on the Chrysler Freeway says on the back "Mel Farr Toyota."
"People say Detroit is down, and the auto business is down, but I'm having my second-best year ever," said Farr, who will be the honorary captain on Sunday for the coin toss. His son, Mike, is a Lions wide receiver.
"I know we are having tough times in Detroit," Farr said. "I know the auto industry is having major problems. But the attitude of the people is good. Tell you what: The Lions are going to do it and the auto industry is coming right back behind them, the same way. No doubt about that. How can I say it? The Lions are doomed to get it done. They are possessed. This is the year of the Lion."Continue reading the main story

Mayer Brown has experience in many specific matters. Search the entire list.
Mayer Brown has more than 250 lawyers ranked by Chambers worldwide and more than 150 Peer Review Rated lawyers in Martindale Hubbell.
On 31 May 2007, the Government issued Decree No. 90/2007/ND-CP Providing on Import and Export Rights of Foreign Traders without presence in Vietnam ("Decree 90"). Decree 90 is applicable to foreign traders without presence in Vietnam from countries and territories being members of the World Trade Organisation ("WTO") or countries and territories entering into bilateral agreements with Vietnam on this issue, and other organisations and individuals involved in import and export without a presence in Vietnam ("foreign traders"). This is a step in developing the commitments of Vietnam to join the WTO.
The Decree was posted in Official Gazette on 23 June 2007 and became valid on 8 July 2007.
Full Update
Decree 90 provides that the foreign traders may register the import right and export right in Vietnam if they fully meet 2 conditions:
Within 30 working days after receiving valid dossiers, the Trade Ministry or its authorised bodies shall grant registration certificates of import and export rights to foreign traders. In case of refusal to grant such a certificate, the Trade Ministry shall also give notice in writing within 30 days, clearly stating the reason for refusal.
Registration certificates of import and export rights of foreign traders will be valid for five years and it may be extended if the foreign traders meet fully the provided conditions.
When the Registration certificates of import and export rights are granted, the foreign traders have rights to exercise the import and export rights for goods permitted for import or export under Vietnamese law and Vietnam's commitments on the market-opening schedule. Otherwise, they have the right to purchase goods for export from or sell imported goods to Vietnamese traders having registered for trading in these goods under current provisions of Vietnamese law.
However, the foreign traders have obligations to strictly abide by customs, tax, import licence and other relevant regulations; to ensure the accuracy of information and documents produced to the Vietnamese Authorities; to make annual reports and irregular reports on their import and export situation at the Trade Ministry's request, etc.

Qualified staff will visit you on a regular basis, depending on your school requirements.
There are no real cost savings by having more visits per year from us. The charges are based on per half day required. Visits can be a one off, to resolve a particular problem, to a regular weekly, fortnightly or monthly visit. A personal visit can be arranged to discuss in detail your requirements and what you can expect from us prior to entering into a service contract. We will also let you increase or reduce time required without any penalty, providing we have staff to cover any increase.
We will always try to be flexible and change visit days where possible should any one off changes be required, (Staff holidays, training etc). As we are a small company, there may be times where we ask you to change days as well, this could happen in the case of one of our other supported schools having an emergency where their systems are down. We would hope that this would be acceptable as it could be you that require us urgently one day!
You will always have the same person visit you for the period of the contract, this will assist us to get to know you and your school and therefore supply you with higher quality of service.
