Trump taps Mark Morgan, former Obama Border Patrol chief, to head ICE
It’s not the kind of first meeting you want to have with your new boss: When Mark Morgan, then head of the Border Patrol, met Homeland Security Secretary John F. Kelly for the first time in January 2017, he was told that newly inaugurated President Trump was firing him.
Morgan had served as chief of the Border Patrol for six months under President Obama, and Trump, who’d won the White House in part because of his pledges to crack down on immigration, had made clear he wanted to go in a different direction.
On Sunday, Trump announced he was bringing Morgan back, saying in a Twitter message that he was tapping Morgan to lead Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, the embattled Homeland Security agency charged primarily with enforcement and deportations.
A Senate aide confirmed Sunday that Morgan has yet to be formally nominated to the post. Once the president does that, Morgan must be confirmed by the Senate. Department of Homeland Security spokespeople did not respond to questions about whether officials there had been informed of the pick before the president’s tweet.
“I am pleased to inform all of those that believe in a strong, fair and sound Immigration Policy that Mark Morgan will be joining the Trump Administration as the head of our hard working men and women of ICE,” Trump tweeted. “Mark is a true believer and American Patriot. He will do a great job!”
As Trump has grown increasingly frustrated that his aggressive policies have failed to curb a surge in people crossing the southern border, primarily Central American families and asylum seekers, Morgan has voiced support for the president. In public appearances, congressional testimony and interviews, Morgan has made clear he was auditioning for a new administration job.
Morgan did not respond to requests for comment Sunday.
“Here’s phase one of what ‘tougher’ looks like, in my opinion,” Morgan told The Times in an interview last month. Administration officials “have to stop expecting that Congress is going to do their job. DHS is going to have to address this issue all alone.”
Under current laws on asylum, “the incentive is: grab kid, step one foot onto U.S. soil, and you’re allowed in, never to be heard from again,” he continued. “In the immediate, we have to do something — even if we lose in the courts, we still gotta do something to stop the incentive.”
If confirmed, Morgan would be among the first to fill a key post vacated in Trump’s recent purge of top Homeland Security officials — starting with his previous nominee to lead ICE — as he vowed to go in a “tougher” direction to stop the surge at the border.
In contrast with a White House that has relatively thin experience in government, Morgan left at the end of January 2017 with more than three decades of service — in the Marines, like Kelly, as well as the Los Angeles Police Department, FBI and several Homeland Security posts, under both Democratic and Republican administrations.
“Mark Morgan’s career spans more than 31 years of faithful service to the nation, including service in the U.S. Marine Corps, as a local deputy sheriff and police officer, 20 years in the FBI, as Assistant Commissioner of CBP’s Office of Internal Affairs, and, finally, as Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol,” Kevin McAleenan, the head of Customs and Border Protection, Border Patrol’s parent agency, wrote upon Morgan’s departure in 2017. “I wish him every success in the future.”
That future will now once again involve working under McAleenan, another former Obama administration official whom Trump named acting Homeland Security secretary after ousting Kirstjen Nielsen.
Morgan told The Times that he had been “blindsided” by the president removing Nielsen. Lawmakers have expressed concern to the White House that having more than a dozen vacancies in the Homeland Security leadership could leave the country insecure.
In January, roughly two years after his own removal and amid a record-breaking partial government shutdown over Trump’s demands for billions for his long-promised border wall, Morgan drew renewed attention when he publicly backed the president. “The wall works,” he said.
Trump has yet to add a single new mile to the roughly 700 miles of border barrier built under his predecessors, despite declaring a national emergency Feb. 15 to get around Congress and tap into other federal funding.
Morgan echoed the Trump administration in criticizing longstanding U.S. law, judicial precedent, and nationwide injunctions that have barred migrant children from being detained for longer than 20 days and blocked many administration attempts to curb immigration. “It creates ‘catch and release,’ which is really what’s causing the problem,” Morgan said in the April interview.
He recommended an aggressive expansion of the administration’s Remain in Mexico policy that forces some asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their cases are adjudicated in the U.S. He called for the policy to be implemented border-wide against asylum seekers at official entry points and those crossing between. The policy is currently in effect as a judge reviews it.
Morgan also said the administration should set up “port courts,” moving officials from their current posts to new ones “right on the border” to speed up processing of cases. That would help keep overwhelmed agencies that have maxed out of holding space from having to release large numbers of migrants, he argued.
The administration should also dramatically increase removals of people from the interior of the country, Morgan said — an effort he would oversee as head of ICE, which conducts raids away from the border.
“Democrats aren’t going to like it,” Morgan said, “but ramp up interior enforcement.”
As for suggestions by Trump that he might bring back a version of family separation, Morgan said, “No, I don’t think they’re going to go down that road.”
“Families are going to be apprehended and removed,” Morgan said under his proposals, “but not split.”
Amid concerns over a militarization of the border, Morgan told The Times in an interview last week that Trump’s latest deployment of roughly 320 military cooks, drivers and lawyers “makes sense.”
The new deployment marks the first time under Trump that troops will directly and regularly interact with migrants. Defense Department policy bars such direct interaction, and U.S. law prohibits troops from domestic law enforcement.
But Morgan said the move frees up Border Patrol agents — “highly trained gun toters” — many of whom are being pulled from their law enforcement role for “essentially childcare services.”
Still, he said of potential mission creep, “We need to keep an eye on that as a check and balance.”
Referring to the heated politics over immigration, Morgan said after Nielsen’s removal, “I think that anybody who takes on that role — especially in the border security arena — you’re in a no-win situation.”
“You’re not going to make anybody happy.”

Co-organisers of a popular Bristol day festival have revealed plans to stage a live music concert in 2021.
The Downs Festival first took place in 2016 and has since brought major acts including Lauryn Hill, Elbow, Noel Gallagher, IDLES and Paul Weller to the city.
All 27,000 tickets to the first edition headlined by Massive Attack - which was the first major music event to take place on Clifton Downs in more than 15 years - sold out in under two hours.
The festival is traditionally organised collaboratively between Bristol-based promoters Crosstown Concerts, whose founder recently spoke with Bristol Live about the future of the festival sector, and Team Love.
While there will be no Downs Festival as we know it this year, Team Love has revealed plans to stage a live music concert on Friday, September 3 featuring a "great musical line-up".
Team Love also organises Love Saves The Day, which is this year taking place on Clifton Downs between September 4-5, and the event company plans to use LSTD's infrastructure to put on a separate concert the night before.
"Due to the temporary relocation of Love Saves The Day to the first weekend of September at where The Downs Festival has previously taken place, we also wanted to put on a concert of music as part of the weekend that fans of live music would be excited about," said Tom Paine, co-founder of Team Love.
"We can't say much more for now but we are working hard behind the scenes to put together a great musical line-up that we know will go down very well with fans of the Bristol music scene."
More information about the concert will be announced in the coming months.
Team Love hopes to announce the line-up for Love Saves The Day in April, with another huge range of multi-genre acts expected.
The location of next year's LSTD depends on the success of this year's festival season.
More information about Love Saves The Day can be found on its website.

So what else has been going on over the past couple of months to keep me away from this here blog?? Well let's see...I taught at the Scrap Etc. event in Nashville at the Opryland Hotel. Wow! It was crazy to teach in front of so many people. But I live to tell about it! And it went well actually. Here is a picture of the album we made in my class.
The album is a tribute to some of the most influential people in your life. And with a little help from Scrap in Style and Audrey Neal's Git R Done digi collection as well as American Crafts and their really cool thickers, this is the title page of the album.
I don't mean to brag about my digi skills since I am new at it and all, but DANG! that's cool! Easily impressed I am.
I will admit to being quite stressed during the event and leading up to the event, but I sure did enjoy hanging out with these girls.

WASHINGTON – President Bush's plan to boost the competitiveness of U.S. industry through innovation won support from members of Congress Thursday, although Democrats criticized the initiative for slashing some education programs to pay for more spending on math and science.
Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez won widespread support from members of the House Government Reform Committee for Bush's "American Competitiveness Initiative," one of the biggest new programs in the budget Bush sent to Congress on Monday.
The initiative, which the president highlighted in his State of the Union address, would double government funding for basic research in the physical sciences, train thousands of new science and math teachers and extend a popular tax credit businesses can receive for investing in research and development. The total pricetag over 10 years would be $136 billion.
Gutierrez said country had a choice on how it would respond to increased global competition from countries such as China and India.
"Some want to respond by retreating into isolationism," Gutierrez said. He said the alternative offered by the president through the competitiveness initiative was "maintaining our leadership by competing with confidence."
Committee Chairman Tom Davis, R-Va., said he believed there was a need to boost math and science teaching in high schools to reverse a slide in which the country's colleges are graduating fewer engineers today than 20 years ago.
But Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said he was concerned because while Bush's budget called for increasing areas of the Education Department budget to train 70,000 new math and science teachers and to attract 30,000 math and science professionals to tutor in the schools, the money was taken from other education programs.
For the second straight year, Bush's new budget would cut overall discretionary spending for education programs. He also asked Congress to eliminate 42 education programs he deemed unnecessary or inefficient, covering such areas as providing money for the arts, parent-resource centers and drug-free schools.
Van Hollen said he was also concerned that Bush was scrimping on the necessary support for the National Institutes of Health, including his proposal to trim spending for 18 of the 19 medical research institutes, calling cutbacks in these areas a mistake given the need to maintain the country's lead in medical research.
Gutierrez, however, said that the president's budget was seeking to find the right priorities for spending while at the same time pursuing Bush's goal of cutting the deficit in half by 2009.
Gutierrez urged individual members of Congress to refrain from inserting money into budget bills for pet projects, a process known as "earmarking."
"The most successful research is based on careful planning and merit-based peer review," Gutierrez said. "So to maximize the impact of (American Competitiveness Initiative) research, we encourage Congress to resist earmarking scientific research funding."

AbstractThe way maternity care is organised varies considerably around the world. In Flanders, Belgium, maternity care is predominantly obstetric-led care whereby the obstetrician is the primary care provider and women give birth in hospital. This model of care has several implications for the stakeholders, but not all stakeholders are routinely involved in research on maternity care.The aim of this study was to explore the views of seven groups of stakeholders on maternity care by addressing the following research questions: what are the views on maternity care in Flanders that are held by midwives, obstetricians, student midwives at the beginning of their education, student midwives at the end of their education, nurse directors, nulligravid women and mothers? Eventually, the different views were matched in order to visualize similarities and differences.A qualitative hermeneutic phenomenological method, based on van Manen s approach was used consistently to study all research questions, thus enabling comparison. Data were collected by means of in-depth face-to-face interviews and focus groups and quality enhancement strategies were used to obtain trustworthiness of the findings. In total, 100 persons participated in this study and over all studies, 37 themes and 24 subthemes emerged from the data.The midwives held a woman-centred ideology and perceived current maternity care as very medicalised. Ideal maternity care is seen as woman-centred care with no unnecessary interventions, in which women can make an informed choice and there is continuity of care. Ideally there should be a cultural change and maternity care should be supported by management and education. They also expressed a wish for more equality between midwives and obstetricians and between hospital and independent midwives. Being equal partners with obstetricians implied that midwives would have the autonomy for normal childbirth. Respect and trust were considered to be the cornerstones of the working relationship. For commencing student midwives, midwifery was a well-considered choice. They had a realistic view on maternity care and the role of the midwife in the current Belgian context. They saw a midwife as a caring person who held a lot of responsibility. They were aware of the hierarchy in current maternity care and the fact that most deliveries were conducted by the obstetricians. Furthermore they expressed a preference for normality and they used the opinion and experience of their own mother to build their personal view. For the student midwives at the end of their education midwifery was also a well-considered choice. They saw the midwife as a coach for women and made a distinction between hospitals and caregivers based upon style of care and professional relations.The obstetricians found current maternity care to be situated within a medicalised context whereby care was also driven by other factors apart from the individual needs of women. Current maternity care was considered to be safe care based upon mortality rates. However, they expressed concern towards unnecessary interventions carried out by colleague obstetricians, as these were believed to jeopardise safety. Furthermore, information and informed choice, or the lack hereof, appeared to play an important role in current maternity care. The obstetricians thought midwives were the ideal caregivers to provide perinatal education and information and they should therefore be routinely involved in antenatal care. For the nurse directors, the quality of maternity care was primordial. They saw their own role as staying within budget , but without compromising on quality of care. They set the limits of care while they gave the professionals the autonomy to define practice. The maternity unit was considered to be just another unit in the hospital with aspects that were both generic and specific. Furthermore they believed a difference could be seen between the nurses and midwives working in their hospital, with the latter being an all-round professional who is very motivated and well educated. The staffing norm was judged dated and insufficient. Nulligravid women already had views and expectations on pregnancy and childbirth. These women used stories from other women and reality TV as their primary source of information. The experience of their own mother had a major influence on their own expectations. There appeared to be a self-sustaining system in which the current culture of childbirth was passed on to the next generation. Although not actively seeking for information, these women perceived a lack of knowledge and a need for information to be given preconceptionally. Mothers looked back upon their childbirth experience as happy days and having a healthy baby and being healthy themselves was very important. They relied on the caregivers to provide adequate care and make decisions, as well as on their own instinct. They found it important that care was adjusted to their personal needs. The women s experiences with the labour and delivery ward were closely linked with the caregivers whereas they described their postnatal stay as a hotel-like stay. The obstetricians were the key figures for the mothers who felt very safe under their care. Although they had not met the midwives before their labour and delivery, they bonded quickly with them. Midwives were described as warm, sensitive and caring. The views of the seven groups were then matched through a meta-synthesis based on the method of Noblit and Hare and eight themes were identified: (1) Safety is priority in maternity care, (2) Maternity care should be woman-centred, (3) the leading role of the obstetrician, (4) the supporting role of the midwife, (5) the information paradox: too little or too much?,(6) Childbirth (and) culture (7) From the unknown to happy days and (8) co-existing ideologies.This is the first study which looked in-depth at maternity care for different perspectives. Some of these perspectives had not been explored before. It became apparent from themeta-synthesis that the perspectives complemented each other and only slight divergences were found. An important overall finding is that ideology appears to determine maternity care since different ideologies are not merely a different way of thinking; they also result in differences in practice and in differences as to how caregivers encounter each other and women.Based upon the findings from this qualitative study, it is recommended that efforts are made to reduce the number of unnecessary interventions, the fee for service financing system, postnatal hospital stay and the free enrolment of student midwives are re-evaluated, woman-centred care is enhanced, the feasibility of midwife-led care is explored, midwives are made more visible in society, student midwives are put in contact with all aspects of midwifery practice and lastly future research looks into the relationship between ideology and obstetric care and relations in care.

After a truly epic stag weekend involving drugs, drink and the final straw of a mile-high fling with a budget airline stewardess, Andy's heart gave out - and the day meant for his wedding became his funeral instead. Now his almost-widow Vicky and her younger sister Nikki, along with two mates - sleazy Tony and pitiful Stevie - have gathered to pay their last respects. Hoors, set in small-town Fife, is Gregory Burke's attempt to write a dark comedy of manners about the sexual mores and manipulations of the modern twenty-or-thirtysomething. His effort, however, is ultimately disappointing.
Burke doesn't often write female characters, and perhaps that's for a good reason - with Vicky and Nikki he seems to be confusing strength for sarcasm and empowerment for promiscuity. However, the men are at least as bad; all four characters are vapid and often pathetic, inspiring neither sympathy nor hatred. Instead, they are just boring - at best, mildly amusing, at worst, rather dislikable - and it's hard to care about the soap-operatic plot of who is going to sleep with whom.
The ensemble cast are not bad, and if they had better material to work with they have the potential for a snappy and interesting comedy. Here, however, there is very little for the audience to hold on to, as the only dramatic tension comes from Conor Murphy's revolving set - even that, although nice to look at, gets dull after a few turns.
Hoors really suffers from a lack of direction. There are glimmers of hope in the script; some of the dialogue is very funny and occasionally hits the nail on the head. But without enough momentum to propel it along, Hoors falls flat. Not sure what it wants to be, it doesn't do justice to the slapped-on genre of "black comedy". It's a shame that - for the next few years at least - Burke's work will be constantly compared with his celebrated, brilliant Black Watch. But until he produces something with the same spark of magic, his plays risk being tagged, like Hoors, a disappointing follow-up.

Dunn's lawn service a cut above the rest
Tom Dunn, 33, Owner, Dunn Lawn and Land
- John Terry
As a pre-teen go-getter back in the early '80s, Tom Dunn spent summers and after-school hours patrolling the shady lanes of Kirkwood and Glendale for lawn-mowing customers. He found enough to launch an enterprise that now employs some 30 people, including a full-time landscape architect. His company, Dunn Lawn and Land, brought in $4 million in revenue in 2005, an increase of almost $1 million over the previous year.
"I started mowing lawns when I was 10 or 11 and did it all through high school," Dunn said. "Then, while I was in college at the University of Indiana, I had people in St. Louis doing work, and in between studying, I would do the paperwork, call the customers, field phone calls from them and all the rest. In effect, I ran the business from my fraternity house room."
For most of that time, Dunn, 33, said, the work consisted almost entirely of cutting grass. He incorporated the business in his senior year in college, just before earning a bachelor's degree in business in 1994.
"I wasn't 100 percent sure that I was going to continue this, but by about the middle of my senior year, I had decided that Dunn Lawn and Land had real potential, especially in the landscaping and construction end of things," he said.
From that point on, he said, he put all of his efforts into developing the business -- relying on his own savings and plowing profits back into the enterprise -- creating what it is now a landscape design-build and maintenance company that specializes in "creating outdoor environments."
"We now do everything -- pools, patios, driveways, irrigation, decks and, of course, planting." He also is president of the development board for SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center and will be president next year of the Young Entrepreneurs' Organization.
"He has really made a success out of that business," said Tony Caleca, a partner with Brown Smith Wallace LLC and a fellow Cardinal Glennon Development Board member. "He takes a very professional, executive approach to it. He's a great salesperson and a community-involved person. He's all about doing the right thing."

i think i misunderstood you budget . .so i picked lesser card. the 6870 is better than the 560ti (i think)
the asrock H77 has more features . .btw, if it gets tight with money; i found a superflower PSU that is good quality like the XFX; up in my last post.
the 750 is too much; the i3 2120 will never go over 65 watts (mine doesn't hit 40 watts when stress testing) the chipset on the motherboard is 7 watts and each stick of RAM is 8 watts. then add 10 watts for the hard drive when it first spins up and the same for the optical when in use.
65+7+16+20=108 watts when everything is loaded (which never happens at the same time) add a 200 watt graphics card and a 520 watt PSU can easily handle a 308 load.
what is also important and often overlooked is the idle wattage because a PSU efficiency takes a nosedive under 20% load. the system so far would more likely idle ~ 104 watts for the 520 than 150 watts for a 750 watt PSU.
no no thank you for all this. Than the Antec HCG 520 is ok
the rest of the build is ok ?

Here’s a regular exchange I have with my four-year-old.
“Did you put your undies in the laundry basket?” I’ll ask.
“Yes. But don’t check,” he’ll reply.
Obviously his undies are not in the basket, they’re still tangled in the leg of his pj bottoms which have been gleefully flung onto the floor of his bedroom so he can get on with more important tasks, like sneakily pouring water into a plastic container of melty beads from IKEA.
And when I discover the slimy plastic mess a few days later, he’ll tell me in no uncertain terms, it was not him.
In short, small children are liars.
Sometimes they’re terrible liars, like when they tell you they don’t need to poo even though they’re staring at you with the quiet, red-faced intensity of someone who is filling their nappy right that second.
And sometimes they’re disturbingly good, like when they remove the all the cards from your wallet and hide them in a boot in the middle of summer, guaranteeing that you won’t see your driver’s license again until it’s cold outside.
Lauren* is raising a three-year-old liar right now, and the lying has become so frequent, the mum-of-one is beginning to question if it’s normal.

Mum worried about 3-year-old’s lying
“My daughter has gotten into lying horribly,” Lauren posted on Reddit, looking for advice.
“She’s gotten to the point where she volunteers her lies. This morning she came into my bedroom and woke me up saying, “Mummy, stuffies ate my Valentine’s Day lollies’.”
By that point, Lauren had had enough. She went into the little girl’s room and found a pile of lolly wrappers on the bed.
“I sent her to her room and told her that she won’t have TV time today.”
Normally Lauren gives her a time out for lying followed by a chat about how it’s important to tell the truth.
“I know it’s developmentally normal to lie, but how do I curb it? It’s almost like it’s physically impossible for her to tell the truth.”

Parents share stories of kids lying
There were plenty of great stories of kids lying in the comments, reinforcing Lauren’s instict that her daughter’s behaviour was normal.
“My kid would draw pictures and tell me her doll did it,” one person said. “She also fed her doll things. If I gave her a treat, after pretend-feeding it to her doll, she would then pop it into her own mouth with me sitting there watching, then tell me the doll wanted more.”
The mum had a unique way to deal with the lying. “If I suspected her of making her doll take the fall for her crimes, I would punish the doll. Put the doll in time out, or forbid the doll from playing with my daughter.”
“My kid does this, but with the cats instead,” said another person.
One person advised Lauren to focus on the concept of trust.
“You want to work with her on the importance of being trusted. I would have said, ‘Thank you for telling me; stuffy shouldn’t have taken the lolly without permission. Hope he doesn’t get a belly ache. I might have to hide the treats if you can’t get stuffies to follow the rules. Wouldn’t it be nice to wait and ask permission?”

A Recon Drone (Kor’vesa in the Tau Lexicon) is a type of Tau Drone (small, sleek, disc-shaped, semi-sentient machines) employed extensively alongside Tau units in battle. Recon Drones have to date only been deployed as part of Pathfinder reconnaissance teams during the Third Sphere Expansion. All Recon Drones are somewhat larger than standard mobile Drones in size, and this is primarily due to the specialist equipment they carry. Recon Drones most commonly accompany Pathfinder Teams making use of Devilfish transports, as their special design allows them to fit into the top of the vehicle instead of the usual cupola hatch. In this way they are still able to use their support technologies whilst being transported during missions. Recon Drones are primarily armed with a centre fold-away Burst Cannon, which is a multi-barreled weapon capable of sustaining high rates of anti-infantry fire. They also carry Homing Beacons and Positional Relays to better aid the deployment of Tau troops such as Battlesuits that have been held in reserve into combat. A Homing Beacon is a multi-spectrum homing device that, when activated, allow the Hunter Cadre's reinforcements to deploy with pinpoint precision, whilst a Positional Relay is a device that records detailed battlefield data and relays it in a tight-band, encrypted radio burst to Tau assets in orbit, allowing them to better coordinate forces operating in strategic reserve.
Recon Drones consist of an advanced processor unit, which individually has only a basic intelligence (approximately equal to that of a small animal such as a pterasquirrel), and moves about by way of a small anti-gravitic generator and a smaller and much modified version of a Tau Jetpack. This allows the Recon Drone to hover over the ground and skim over most obstacles. As they hover over landscapes, rotating back and forth, their sensor vane constantly transmits vital information about their surroundings.
Recon Drones that are attached to a Tau squad can be controlled by a Drone Controller, whether it is in the form of a support system for a Tau Battlesuit, or a hard-wired piece of wargear for Tau infantry. A Drone Controller is an electronic device that can be used by the Tau to further enhance their control over their robotic companions. A Drone Controller acts as a hub of digital communications between the Drone's operator and any Drones that are nearby the user. It serves as an advanced interface between the operator and the artificial intelligence (AI) combat programs of the Drones, and is often used to direct the Drones’ firepower far more efficiently and with a level of accuracy far greater than would otherwise be possible on the battlefield.
The Fire Caste combat doctrine, as laid down in the Code of Fire, instructs all warriors to fight closely together, with each member of a team doing his utmost to protect not just his comrades, but also any nearby teams in his Hunter Cadre. Using overlapping fields of fire, even Drones are able to provide mutual support on the battlefield in the case of enemy assaults.
So deeply do the Tau believe in the Greater Good, that even their Drones are programmed with self-preservation protocols. In the face of what the AI deems to be hopeless odds, a Drone will attempt to escape rather than stand and fight. While in certain extreme circumstances Drones might be deployed on high-risk missions likely to lead to their destruction or purposefully moved to block enemy advances on units of Fire Warriors, the Tau do not consider Drones to be disposable units and the Drone artificial intelligence will analyse every possibility in order to ensure its own survival.

I recently started a subscription to One Story. It's this cool literary magazine, where for one dollar per issue, you get one short story (in small, offset, saddle-stapled chapbook form), written by a new or established writer, mailed to you every 3-4 weeks. My first issue was "The Joy of Cooking" by Elissa Schappell, and it was a hoot, such a good read. I am thinking of doubling down and extending my subscription to two years.
In "The Joy of Cooking" a mother is trying to explain a "family recipe" to her daughter over the telephone, bringing up the entire family history of love, divorce, anorexia, sibling rivalry, etc, in the process. There is tight, funny, heartrending dialogue (both spoken and interior), and the story just zips along (after all it's the length of a phone call/recipe).
Highly recommended. Check out the One Story website here.
I've also just finished reading The Hypnotist, by Lars Kepler. It is supposed to be the next in line in the Swedish Crime/Thriller genre, in the vein of Steig Larrson's Millennium Trilogy. The author's name is actually a pseudonym for the husband-wife team who wrote the book (it's their first collaboration). It's uneven, but definitely worth the read. The chapters are very short, 3-4 pages long for the most part, and the story moves at a rapid clip, until in the middle of the book there is a 80-100 page extended flashback (almost a novella in its own right). At first I was annoyed at the change of pace, but in my opinion it totally works, lending depth and dimension to the characters and plot. My favorite scenes are the ones that take place in group therapy, with the hypnotized subjects appearing as if underwater, with bubbles coming out of their mouths and seaweed and sea creatures floating by. An image that returns to great effect in the stunning finale. Check it out!

I have such fond memories of my marimekko curtains and bedspread, back in the day … it was the 70’s of course. They were fabulous shades of bright green with large orange tulips. The look extended to green heart sheets and a gorgeous white peacock bedhead … all put together by my very stylish mother.
Brisbane was all the richer for Joy de Gruchy and The Craftsman’s Market, a design studio that stocked Marimekko and put Brisbane on the map. I have adored Marimekko in a nostalgic sort of way ever since.
How exciting to have our own Marimekko in Sydney … looking resplendent in the wonderful store in King Street. The colour is breathtaking and the space full of light !! Bolts of signature marimekko fabric, fashion and homewares.
I couldn’t help but pass on my source for peacock bedheads to complete the picture … The Family Love Tree.

Longines has created The Longines Heritage Military
Proud to celebrate its history and achievements, Longines is expanding its Heritage collection with a reimagined military model from the 1940s. The Longines Heritage Military draws its inspiration from a watch created for members of the British Royal Air Force (RAF). Stanley Turner, a highly-decorated radiotelegraph operator aboard an RAF aircraft during the Second World War, wore this model around his wrist. The watch once owned by Mr. Turner was recovered and offered to the Swiss brand by a young English collector, who inspired the current reissue. Thus, Longines is celebrating the 100th anniversary of the RAF in its own way.
With its minimalist design and 38.5 mm diameter, The Longines Heritage Military flawlessly adheres to the refined aesthetic and spirit of the period timepiece which, at the time, measured 32.5 mm. Its oversized winding crown evokes the original watch’s ease of handling.
The Longines Heritage Military also displays a silver, opaline dial with a subtle mist of fine droplets in black paint. This process, a first for Longines and performed entirely by hand, makes each and every piece unique while mimicking the oxidation found on the original. Despite housing an automatic movement, this timekeeper is the only piece in Longines’ current collections that does not carry the “Automatic” label on its dial in order to preserve the spirit of the 1940s.
Remaining true to the watch worn by Stanley Turner and his RAF colleagues, The Longines Heritage Military features a curved, fully polished bezel and box-form sapphire crystal. The steel casing that houses the automatic movement (L888.2) comes with a green, aged leather watch strap, and a Nato strap in the same shades. Both versions of the strap are provided with each timepiece, along with the required replacement tool, all of which come in a case specially designed for the occasion.

Help Sought in Fatal Shooting on Freeway
The family of a 20-year-old college student who was fatally shot on a South Los Angeles freeway appealed to the public Wednesday for help in finding the gunman.
Michael Livingston of Long Beach was heading north on the Harbor Freeway on Tuesday afternoon when he was shot, authorities said. He lost control of his silver 1998 Chevy Camaro and crashed into the center divider between the Manchester Avenue and Florence Avenue exits.
Police do not have a suspect.
“This person murdered someone. I am extremely angry about that,” said Livingston’s father, Dennis, outside the Los Angeles Police Department’s 77th Street Station. “I am begging, pleading, asking, hoping that someone would call with some information.”
Investigators said they have several witnesses but hope to hear from more.
“There were probably hundreds of cars going by when that happened,” said Det. Rudy Lemos, homicide coordinator for the 77th Street Station. “I’m sure someone will come forward after we put out more information.”
Police want to know if anyone saw anything unusual between 1:30 and 2 p.m., such as a speeding or erratic driver.
“Please, please come forward,” begged Livingston’s mother, Christina. “If you are the person who did it, please turn yourself in.”
Livingston apparently died from a gunshot wound to the head, Lemos said. He said three shell casings were found at the scene.
“It appears that it was some type of road rage,” he said. “There is no indication that there is gang involvement.”
Investigators are trying to verify a witness account that Livingston was racing and determine whether that played a role, said Capt. Kenneth Garner.
Livingston’s mother said her son “would not race someone. How do you race someone on the freeway?”
Livingston, a student at West Los Angeles College, had been on his way to a friend’s house and was two exits away when he crashed, his mother said.
Relatives said he would have turned 21 in less than a month and had been considering a real estate license course.
“He was ambitious-minded,” said his aunt, Cristal Moore.
It is hard, Garner said, “to keep your faith in humanity when you see something like this happen.”

US STOCKS-Wall St lower as weak China data spooks investors
* China Feb exports fall most in more than six years
* Shake Shack plunges after disappointing guidance
* Indexes down: Dow 0.49 pct, S&P 0.67 pct, Nasdaq 0.75 pct (Updates to open)
By Abhiram Nandakumar
March 8 (Reuters) - Wall Street was lower on Tuesday after weak Chinese data rekindled fears of a global economic slowdown led by the world's second-biggest economy.
China's February trade performance was far worse than economists had expected, with exports tumbling the most in over six years. The data weighed on markets worldwide.
"(The China data) suggests the fragile nature of the market's psychology right now," said Scott Brown, chief economist at Raymond James in St. Petersburg, Florida.
"People are still very much nervous. You are now starting to get a bit of a debate about whether things have gotten overdone," he said.
Crude prices shed their gains and were down about 2 percent. Continuación...

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN -- Covenant men's basketball head coach Arte Culver has resigned from the position in order to pursue other collegiate coaching opportunities, announced director of athletics Tim Sceggel on Friday.
A national search for a new head coach has begun.
In Culver's lone season at Covenant, he guided the Scots to a second consecutive winning season with a 14-12 overall record and a berth in the USA South Tournament. In his debut, Culver and the Scots defeated No. 15-ranked Emory, 74-70, on Nov. 15, 2016. The 14-12 record marked the best record of any first-year head coach in program history.
"I'm grateful to Arte for the work he did over the last year as he sought to disciple young men in the context of basketball, while pursuing excellence on the court and bringing in a strong recruiting class for this year," Sceggel said. "When Arte was hired, we knew that he was a rising star in this profession, so it is no surprise that another institution has invited Arte to join their staff."
Covenant had one All-USA South honoree (Patjo Twagirayezu) and a three-time USA South Rookie of the Week winner (Caleb Haynes) during the year. Culver's team was also awarded the USA South Team Sportsmanship Award, the second straight year Covenant earned the honor in men's basketball.
In the classroom, Culver's team had seven selections to the USA South All-Academic team, matching a program-best since entering the conference in the 2013-14 academic year.

A study was focused on the interaction of Erwinia chrysanthemi with Arabidopsis thaliana C24. Erwinia chrysanthemi has shown compatible interaction and caused soft rot by complete maceration of the tissues and collapse of the infected plant part. Inductionof random β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene fusions in transgenic Arabidopsis after infection with E. chrysanthemi was observed. Transgenic Arabidopsis lines At1082 and At1275 have shown increased GUS expression after infection with E. chrysanthemi. Histochemicalstaining results indicated localized GUS expression in the vascular bundles of the leaves present above the site of infection. DNA analysis results showed the presence of a single T-DNA copy in transgenic lines At1085 and At1275. The possibility of cloning E. chrysanthemi induced A. thaliana plant promoter sequences is discussed.

Genetic variation in 27 sweet orange accessions was undertaken at Citrus Research Station (AICRP on Tropical Fruits), Tirupati with three replications of one tree in each accession. The observations on 32 quantitative morphological characters with respect to plant, fruit and quality characters were done following IPGRI descriptors. High GCV and PCV were recorded for seed weight (GCV = 67.24%; PCV = 74.79%) and average number of seeds per fruit (GCV = 33.83%; PCV = 34.16%). Moderate PCV and GCV values were reported for rind thickness (GCV = 19.61%; PCV = 20.39%), width of epicarp (GCV = 17.95%; PCV=20.38%), diameter of fruit axis (GCV= 15.02%; PCV = 15.61%) and fruit weight (GCV = 12.64%; PCV = 13.40%) among fruit characters. The high heritability associated with high genetic advance was observed in petiole length, leaf lamina width, anther length, pedicel length, stamen length, petal length, diameter of fruit axis, rind thickness, fruit weight, width of epicarp, average number of seeds per fruit, seed width, seed weight, ascorbic acid content, titrable acidity, total sugars, reducing sugars and ratio of soluble solids to titrable acids indicating the scope for improving these traits through selection. © 2015 Horticulture Society of India.

Artificial diet studies were used to differentiate among physical and chemical mechanisms affecting the suitability to diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella L.), of 16 food substrates obtained by growing four different brassicas in the glasshouse or field and measuring the pest's performance on either leaf discs or a diet incorporating leaf powders. Leaves of Chinese cabbage and the cabbage cultivar 'Minicole' were, respectively, the most and least suitable leaves for the insect, but this ranking was reversed on artificial diet. Leaves of glasshouse-grown plants were more suitable than those of plants grown in the fields. Differences in the suitability of leaves to diamondback moth appeared to be largely determined by leaf toughness and surface wax load. Concentrations of individual glucosinolates in the brassicas probably acted as phagostimulants, so increasing their intrinsic susceptibility to diamondback moth, but the effect of the physical factors appeared more important. © 2010 Taylor & Francis.

Cultural and morphological characteristics of sheath blight pathogen; Rhizoctonia solani was observed on different solid media viz., potao dextrose agar (PDA) medium, czapeck's dox agar (CDA) medium and rose bengal agar (RBA) medium. On PDA, mycelial growth was abundant, but sclerotia production was delayed. On CDA, though the mycelial growth was moderate and slower than on PDA, sclerotia production was early. On both the media, the sclerotia were aggregated. The mycelium growth was very slow on RBA and there was no sclerotia production. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of hyphal interaction between Trichoderma spp. and R. solani indicated that biocontrol agent parasitized the mycelium of R. solani. Hypha of R. solani was highly susceptible to hyphal parasitic attack by the species of Trichoderma. Studies of hyphal interaction between Trichoderma and R. solani indicates penetration of parasite and finally resulting into lysis or collapse of R. solani hypha. Among the Trichoderma spp. TK3 isolate showed more mycoprasitic activity by making contact with host hyphae, running parallel to it, production of hook like structures and emptied the cells of pathogen.

A field experiment was conducted during 2006 and 2007 at Agricultural College, Naira on the response of rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties to graded levels of nitrogen. Plant height, leaf area index, root volume and dry matter production were the highest with 'Vasundhara' and 120 kg N/ha at all the stages during both the years of study. Panicles/m2, filled grains/panicle, grain yield (4.51 and 4.30 t/ha) and straw yield and nitrogen uptake by grain and straw were also significantly higher in the variety 'Vasundhara'. Increasing levels of nitrogen progressively enhanced panicles/m2, filled grains/panicle, grain and straw yield and nitrogen uptake by grain and straw only up to 120 kg N/ha. Varieties and nitrogen levels interacted significantly and the highest grain yield and economics were recorded with 'Vasundhara' at 120 kg N/ha and it was found to be optimum combination for aerobic rice.

A field experiment was conducted in sandy loam soils to study the performance of groundnut cultivars (Abhaya, TAG-24, Dharani and Kadiri-6) under different plant populations (3.33, 4.44, 5.00 and 6.66 lakh ha-1) during early kharif, 2013, at Sri Venkateswara Agricultural College Farm, Tirupati campus of Acharya N.G. Ranga Agricultural University, Andhra Pradesh. The results revealed that the highest stature of yield attributes viz., number of filled pods plant-1, pod to peg percentage, hundred pod and kernel weight were significantly higher with groundnut variety Dharani compared to rest of the varieties due to better partitioning of photosynthates to sink. The groundnut cultivar Dharani recorded 42.0, 32.2 and 17.0 per cent higher pod yield compared to Abhaya, Kadiri-6 and TAG-24, respectively. All the yield components were significantly higher with plant population of 3.33 lakh ha-1. The pod yield of groundnut with plant population of 5.00 lakh ha-1 was increased by 2.8, 7.2 and 14.0 per cent compared to 3.33, 4.44 and 6.66 lakh ha-1, respectively. The higher pod yield of groundnut during early kharif in sandy loam soil was obtained with groundnut cultivar Dharani at plant population of 5.00 lakh ha-1.

Field experiment was conducted in the wetland farm of for during 2002-2003 and 2003-2004 to investigate the cumulative residual effect of incorporated crop residues and different nitrogen management practices applied to preceding lowland rice on the performance of succeeding groundnut. Incorporation of fieldbean crop residues and supply of 100 per cent N through FYM to rice was superior to any other crop residue incorporation and nitrogen management practices adopted. Similar magnitude of performance of groundnut was noticed with the combination of fieldbean crop residue incorporation and supply of 50 per cent nitrogen each through fertilizer and FYM to preceding rice.

Management of anthracnose, a post harvest disease of mango (Mangifera indica L.) incited by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.) Penz. & Sacc. was produced by using native antagonistic microflora. Under in vitro study, the Trichoderma isolates Trichoderma fasciculatum and Trichoderma koningii showed the highest antagonistic activity against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in dual culture isolated from fructoplane and phylloplane respectively. T.fasciculatum proved to be the best compatible antagonist with different fungicides evaluated. In vivo screening of potential antagonist T.fasciculatum on mango fruits revealed that post-inoculation (pre-treatment) method is superior over the pre-inoculation method in management of anthracnose disease. The possibility of exploitation of fungicidal compatible bioagent in the integrated management of anthracnose with low fungicidal residue will delay in development of resistance in the pathogen will be discussed.

Leave your beliefs and preconceived ideologies behind you before listening to this.
Description : This is a work in progress.
It's a CHILLSTEP/R&B hybrid.
I am currently sequencing this out and am going to be doing much more with it. The piano and strings are courtesy of Mr. Funktastic. He is amazing!
The beat and bass and other percussion, as well as the layout, sequencing and mastering were all done by myself. Enjoy, and please give some ideas and feedback to help me add to this.
Also, there will be vocals on the final cut, to be done by Zen of ShadowPeople, also known as Zenia!
Description : The first track under my new professional handle:
A CHILLSTEP track in progress. Still working on it, but this is the first draft layout.
The vocals are cuts of the very awesome dude, David Icke, who speaks some serious truths.
I hope you guys enjoy this!
Thank you to 40A and Psychotropic Circle for the wonderful samples!
Description : CHILLSTEP. Special thanks to Jada and SceptikDJ for the vocals and pad loop.
Other than those couple of samples, this track is ALL me. It's about the dimensional entities within the reality that we can only perceive through a very few ways... VERY few.... DMT.
Description : This track came out pretty damn good, I think!
I don't really wanna classify it in a genre, but if I had to, I'd say it was Psychedelic Rap and Chillstep mixed together.
I was inspired by a recent experience I had while smoking some DMT. That drug is the truth!
I believe that certain molecular compounds play a very important part of our spiritual evolution as a species, DMT being one of the most important.
I hope you guys like this track.
The wobble during the hook is courtesy of RAYZEN, though I effected and chopped it up a bit.

This is the first vocal draft cut.
Still working and fine-tuning the flow, and will be taking a few more takes.
Description : This is a remix-master of "Dark Trials", a freestyle rap I did last year. It's one of my favorites, because I feel I was on point in a massive way. From a rather dark part of my life... Enjoy.
Description : This is an ambient score with Cymatic attributes.
Cymatics is the science of sound vibration through a physical medium. The power of sound is amazing, and is directly responsible for the forming of our universe. I wrote this track with the help of ERH, an associate of mine in the sound design industry. Enjoy.
Description : An ambient breaks / trip hop track that I recently produced. No Looperman samples in this, it's all me baby.
Description : "Walk of the Rogue" is a deeply personal track of mine. Wrote it from scratch. There are no loops, aside from a beat loop I sampled from an old breaks record "EarthBeats N.Y. 1991". I wrote the track after a hard loss... Then, a couple of months ago I cam across a vocal sample on Looperman by Jj Weeks and it FIT the song perfectly, so I stuck it in there! In fact, the lyrics "I'm gonna do the right thing and walk away" is exactly what the song was originally about! AWESOME!
Description : A Nu-Jungle beat I made and then rapped over. Truth rap. Message is what this track is about. Enjoy.
Description : A CHILLSTEP Production I've recently released on TGR. The official release will be on my "Driving Music" album, to be released in November 2012 for free to the world. TGR-ShadowPeople is a not-for-profit label. Money is a lie. We don't understand why "artists" seem to think they should get paid for creating music. It's payment enough to be able to change the world through sound.
This production is a live mix of two of my newest Chillstep beats.
All my own original creation, except for some vocal cuts by Zenia, and Diane, a short stint of pad loop by Efebeats, a base drum loop by SovereignConcepts and a melody loop by Killzoner.

Diane either no longer has a profile, or changed her profile name, and I cannot find her page.
Description : This is a track I recently found in my archives. It's another freestyle rap. The beat and rap are both done by myself, and the vocal samples in the end are taken from Firefly (the greatest show ever to be cancelled in it's first season. It's terrible they cancelled that show!)
I was at a very dark place in my life when I rapped this, and it's at those times when I seem to be able to rap off the top of my head the best, or perhaps, from within my soul pain.
Enjoy. And feel free to download this, but leave a nice comment if you do!

Description : This is the first of 3 freestyles I've begun to put together for my next EP. I've been really happy with this track. I'm not a vocalist by trade, but lately I've had many things to say. I hope you feel the truth of this track.
Description : FIRST OFF! THIS IS BREAKSTEP, so do not freak out if it's a bit fast, there's just no option for me to put Breakstep as the genre, and it's still pretty darn wobbly.
This is a shortened (yes, shortened) version of a longer, pre-mixture kind of track. That means when I wrote it, I wrote it very long, with many varying elements so that the track evolves into nearly a whole new beat and sounds great when you mix it with stuff. At some point I will be putting it up for free download, as I'd love to hear Looper-peeps mix this sh*t up, but I just released the album that this track just so happens to be a part of, and I'd like to wait a while before letting it travel around the system.
Description : Like all of my music, this track is a message. I wrote it to promote the real, squash the fake, and slap the ignorant, all without leaving the comfort of my studio.
Description : This is the final edit. Tripstep.
It came out good, I thnk, and I added some vocals, my own.
This song is about pain and loss.
Description : CHILLSTEP-DUBSTEP. This could ALMOST be classified in the Breakstep category, as it has breaky element, like much of my stuff does, but of course it has a 2-step beat going on so, yeah. I wrote it at 80bpm, rather than the 130-140bpm that everyone seems to think dubstep has to stay at, which is tarded. It usually is in that range, but is not required to be, so don't be an Okra-peep.
As always, made from scratch.
A testament to my love of mixing genres together and creating new ones. Though the vocals are not the main aspect of this track, they are still a huge part of it, and I have to thank Miss Holly Prothman for the vocals. Check out her stuff!
One of my personal favs. Very proud of this masterpiece. All samples are cleared as usual, and no downloads YET for this one as it will also be on my "Whisper of the Void" Mixtape. You can hear the full Chillstep Mastery Mix on my soundcloud - soundcloud.com/mighty-bender

Small town farmers markets are seeing a resurgence in popularity, as savvy grocery shoppers have now firmly embraced the idea of the 100-mile diet.
The concept is simple, and attractive. Buy fresh produce from growers close to home, and reduce your carbon footprint. At the same time, those dollars go straight into the pockets of local business people, keeping your own community’s economy strong.
But the real benefit may be in getting to know the people who are growing the very food on our dinner tables. Regular shoppers at the Agassiz Farm Fresh Market have learned the value in meeting the producers of their fruits, vegetables and meats.
“They can just talk to the farmer about how they made their food,” said Kate Onos-Gilbert, an organizer who is also one of Agassizs main tulip growers. “They can see how their food comes from seed to the table.”
But the market isn’t just about food. It began three years ago, as an initiative created by the District of Kent’s community and recreation department. They put the call out to the entire Fraser Valley farming and crafting community to get involved. The resulting market was such a success, the District has been able to step back and let a community-run committee take over. This is that committee’s first year running the program independently, Onos-Gilbert said.
For the first two years, the market had the automatic financial assistance of the District. This year, they had to apply for a grant, just like any other community group would. Their request was accepted, helping keep vendor fees low, and allowing for some promotion of the market.
And they’re staying with the original mandate of the market, which was ‘make it, bake it, grow it’. Almost all of the produce is from within 100 miles of Agassiz, she said, with some products being from other areas in B.C.
But we won’t take anything that was grown outside of the province, she said. As an exciting addition to the ever-growing popularity of the small-town market, they have officially joined in with the Agassiz Harrison Mills Circle Farm Tour. That is expected to draw even larger numbers into Agassiz, boosting tourism and creating even more awareness for the areas vibrant, diverse farming community.
“This is about being able to go into your own backyard here in Agassiz and buy direct from the growers,” she said.
They are still confirming the final list of vendors, and still accepting applications. The market will open June 7, and run every Thursday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. As more proof that this concept is taking hold in the Valley, the market will now also run Saturdays in the month of July, from 9 a.m. to noon.
The last two years, Verard Farms have been bringing in fresh and frozen pork products from Chilliwack, and have been one of the most popular vendors. Onos-Gilbert is hoping to draw in more meat producers to round out the options for shoppers.
“Everyone appreciates having the fresh pork there,” she said.
Last year, children were invited to become sellers, too. Onos-Gilberts own son could be seen some weeks, selling handmade items. Another young seller brought out his impressive rock and gem collection, offering pieces for sale and explaining their history.
This year promises to showcase even more local youth crafts and talents.
“The youth component is actually the biggest group that has expressed interest in returning,” she said.
Other returning vendors include a homemade, dried soup seller from Hope who even carries a variety of gluten-free mixes. There will be home-made baked goods and a booth selling hand-crafted baby clothes, as well.
Last year saw 12 full-time vendors and about eight part time vendors. So far, at least 10 vendors have expressed interest or confirmed. Onos-Gilbert is hoping for more, and vendors don’t have to commit to the entire summer to be involved.
The market will run until the last Thursday in September, and is held in the Aberdeen parking lot on Pioneer Avenue, between Jacks Restaurant and The Agassiz Harrison Observer office.
For more information on becoming a vendor, contact Kate at 604-796-3496. To get the most out of your trip to the Agassiz Farm Fresh Market each Thursday, visit the Circle Farm Tour website to learn about other producers to visit in the area. Farm products available from the source include hazelnuts, cranberries, cheese and corn, depending on the season.

Still pushes for Internet sales tax bill
In an effort to bolster state revenue, state Rep. Mary Still, D-Columbia, is pushing for legislation that could allow Missouri to collect sales taxes on online purchases, closing a loophole that has exempted an ever larger share of retail activity.
The Missouri Main Street Fairness Act would adopt sales tax collection definitions and procedures agreed to by 22 states and developed by retail industry group Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board Inc.
The push dovetails with federal legislation, including one bill co-sponsored by Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., that would require Internet vendors selling to customers in states that adopt the Streamlined Sales Tax guidelines to send sales taxes back to those governments.
“It levels the playing field for the small businesses,” Still said. “These are taxes that are owed, but they’re not being collected.”
Taxing Internet sales has long been a contentious issue. Retailers who sell goods online are only required to collect sales taxes if they sell to customers within a state where they have a physical presence, such as a distribution warehouse.
A 1992 U.S. Supreme Court decision ruled that states could not compel out-of-state vendors to remit sales taxes on purchases made from those states but said Congress could rectify the issue with legislation. After nearly two decades of inaction, momentum seems to be building as Internet sales continue to grow and local governments grapple with budget shortfalls.
A 2009 University of Tennessee study estimated Missouri would lose $187.5 million in uncollected e-commerce sales taxes in 2011 and $210.7 million in 2012.
Scott Peterson, executive director of the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board, said the agreement states are signing clarifies definitions such as food, which many states exempt from their full sales tax.
It also stipulates when new taxes will take effect after an election and establishes reimbursement rates for companies that collect a state’s sales tax and send it back, among other things.
“The Internet is a perfect medium to collect sales tax,” Peterson said. “If you use modern software, all of these decisions can be automated relatively quickly.”
Still co-sponsored similar legislation last year, but it didn’t make it very far. This year, she said, she might file the bill or she might sign onto similar proposals from Rep. Doug Funderburk, R-St. Peters, or Rep. Margo McNeil, D-Florissant. Both sponsored similar legislation last year.
Still said she thinks Blunt’s co-sponsorship of federal legislation will hopefully give “a green light to some of the Republicans that it’s OK,” she said.
“All the people who took the no-tax pledge, they are not breaking their pledge by collecting taxes that are already owed,” she said.

Hackley History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
The name Hackley is part of the ancient legacy of the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. It is a product of when the family lived in Buckinghamshire. The surname Hackley derives from the Old English word Aker-leah, which means "acre meadow owner."
Early Origins of the Hackley family
The surname Hackley was first found in Buckinghamshire, where they held a family seat from ancient times. The name literally mane "dweller at the Acre-Lea, i.e., a common field divided into plots of various sizes. [Middle English aker, Old English aecer, a division of land +M.E. ley, Old English leah, a lea, field]."
Early History of the Hackley family
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Hackley research. Another 245 words (18 lines of text) covering the years 1086, 1273, 1300, 1500, 1610, 1769, 1665, 1740, 1685, 1691, 1721 and 1725 are included under the topic Early Hackley History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Hackley Spelling Variations
The first dictionaries that appeared in the last few hundred years did much to standardize the English language. Before that time, spelling variations in names were a common occurrence. The language was changing, incorporating pieces of other languages, and the spelling of names changed with it. Hackley has been spelled many different ways, including Ackerly, Ackerley, Acerly, Akerley, Akeley, Acle, Ackle, Acley, Acly and many more.
Early Notables of the Hackley family (pre 1700)
Distinguished members of the family include Roger Acherley (1665?-1740), Welsh lawyer, constitutional writer, and politician, the son and heir of John Acherley of Stanwardine, or Stottesden, Shropshire, where he was the representative of a long-established family. Roger was admitted a student of the Inner Temple on 6 March 1685, and called to the bar on 24 May 1691. For some years Acherley was engaged in disputing the will of Thomas Vernon, who died in 1721, by...

| Hackley migration to the United States ||+|
Thousands of English families in this era began to emigrate the New World in search of land and freedom from religious and political persecution. Although the passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe, those who made the voyage safely were rewarded with opportunities unavailable to them in their homeland. Research into passenger and immigration lists has revealed some of the very first Hackleys to arrive in North America:
Hackley Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
- Jon Hackley, who arrived in Virginia in 1638
- Jane Hackley, who landed in Virginia in 1652
- Richard Hackley, who arrived in Virginia in 1653
| Hackley migration to Canada ||+|
Some of the first settlers of this family name were:

The body of the late hip-hop star, Ilerioliwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, had been deposited at the mortuary.
A police source pleaded anonymity while speaking with the Saturday Tribune, saying, ” His ( Mohbad ) body was taken away from the pathology section yesterday.
The police source added, “His body was later taken to the morgue, where it will remain for now, at least till when the result of the autopsy is out .”
