Who are the Democrats? Part III by Thom Gorman published February 10, 2012
The Issue of Slavery
The simple listing of U.S. presidents, that I posted in Part II, serves to show the reader, that the Democratic Party was the party of slavery and segregation. That statement is easily verified using other sources, so I wont belabor it. The lead up to the War Between the States (the Civil War) its cause and the aftermath have been edited out of almost every history book, printed in the U.S. This political editing, or abridgement, was done at the state and local levels, by school boards, all across the country. They would not place an order, with a publisher, who refused to edit out, what they didnt like. These groups are largely peopled by Democrats, for the simple reason that they are by and large all employees, with regular work hours. The Republicans, they worked for, were still at work, during school board meeting times. This may seem overly simplistic, but how many second shift workers go to parent/teacher meetings or are in the PTA? History sometimes turns, on the simplest of reasons.
Congratulations on deciding to start your own salon business. Statistics in recent years clearly show that the hair salon sector world-wide is growing and the chances of being at a stage of dynamic growth in the near future for a salon business is high. The reason for this is people generally care more about themselves and their appearance, realizing that it has a direct effect on the success of their careers and personal lives. They also know that from the experts they can expect quality and good value for money.
Start with a Business Plan
The first step in realizing your salon business is coming up with a thoroughly well thought out and researched business plan. It is the single most important element of starting a new business. In your plan you should outline your whole business idea, vision, plans, and strategies – although it should remain flexible to any future 'surprises'. Not only is it necessary for the successful launch of your salon, but another use of a plan, other than knowing what action to take and why, is its usefulness when it comes to getting investors, bank loans, and also advice from others with experience. It also gives you a chance to thoroughly think your finances through and plan accordingly. Remember that those starting a business with a solid economic strategy are more likely to succeed than those with a great idea, product or patented invention.
Research Your Competition
Make every effort to accurately discern the action and practices of your competition. It is worthwhile to choose a group of salons that are already successful and who have a similar target group of customers as you do, and then see what makes them successful or where they are lacking. Conduct field research. Visit as a customer, and get a feel for what your customer will expect, and how you will be able to provide the services. You can then skillfully adapt these solutions to your business. Leave what doesn't work, and adapt what may work for you.

A home inspection is a limited, non-invasive examination of the condition of a home. Most Real Estate companies now recommend a home inspection. Home inspections are usually conducted by a home inspector who has the training and certifications to perform such inspections. The inspector prepares and delivers to the client a written report of findings. The client then uses the knowledge gained to make informed decisions about their pending real estate purchase. The home inspector describes the condition of the home at the time of inspection but does not guarantee future condition, efficiency, or life expectancy of systems or components.

David Archuleta may only be 21-years-old but there is no question the young star is wise beyond his years.
In just a couple of months, he will vacate the limelight to go on a two-year Mormon mission in an undisclosed country – an undertaking he was motivated to pursue after seeing how lives have changed for his friends who embarked on it.
"Reading some of the news of my friends who have been on missions, they've really matured in their spirituality. And their understanding for life changed, just by giving everything up to help other people. I really admired them and I want to make that same sacrifice for a good cause," David, who is currently in town to perform at a private showcase tonight, told xinmsn in an interview yesterday.

What do you do when you have a family commitment on the same day as something you've been planning to do with a friend for months? What if the two events are two states away from each other?
My solution right now involves a one-way flight and an extremely tightly booked day after my family commitments are complete. Family comes first, of course, but some creative thinking (and a bit of hyper-rushed travel) can make everything work.
Q1: Using wedding money wisely I am getting married in June (huge wedding, not our choice!) and we conservatively anticipate receiving about $15,000 in gifts from our family and friends. In the past year, we have moved across the country to be closer to family and have finally in the last 6 months or so settled into our new routine. We bought a home, actually the one that we were renting. The owner wanted to sell and offered us first chance, she gave us owner financing, and counted all of our rent as a down payment. The house is livable but needs significant updates to all of the bathrooms and the kitchen. I found employment, but have significant travel everyday. Because of this, we had to trade in my car and get something more reliable for the winter weather and the route that I drive.
I am the breadwinner, my salary is $43,000. My fiance works part time at a university and is going to school for his master's degree (free while he is employed there). We live off of my salary and save his. We do have an emergency fund saved up ($1000) and then other money in an online savings account for any other life events (approx 15,000). I pay $1000 a month towards debt (not counting the mortgage), which is the minimum on everything except for the SL at 8.5%. We have lived very frugally for the past 4 years and will probably always do so.
My question is: should we use the wedding money to pay down the loans as much as possible, or should we put that into savings and use it for repairs on the house? I feel guilty using the money to pay down the debt, but I know it's probably the better choice for now and repair/update the house at a later time. I would love to buy new bedroom furniture (everything we have are hand-me-downs and nothing matches, plus we need a new mattress) and possibly renovate 1 or 2 of the bathrooms. It is MY student loan debt, but I'm also supporting the whole household. My fiance is fine with paying off the loans, but I'm feeling guilty. - Marjorie
It really depends on how urgent the updates you need to make are. You say the house is livable, but that it needs updates. Is this for the purposes of decor? Or are there really important functions missing?
If it's mostly decor, I wouldn't make that a high priority unless you're looking to sell the place fairly soon. I'd pay off the debt first.
If you're in a position to sell soon or these repairs will make a significant functional improvement, then I'd go for the home repair.

Some people may consider language and speech sounds as on and the same, but there lies a huge difference between these two. Language is a sign system used to expand concepts and allows understanding. It is articulated through speech, but it can also be transmitted through other means such as sign language and musical notations. Children with linguistic proficiency can have a distinct advantage in schools as there the lectures are delivered in a language. Language plays a vital role in academics.
Therefore, it is not wrong if anyone comments that children with language dysfunction usually have a troubled educational career. Language disorders in children can be divided into two kinds- expressive language disorder and receptive language disorder. In the former kind of disorder, children often fail to express their feelings to others; whereas in the latter one, children could not understand the meaning of what people conveyed to them.

What Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Saga can learn from the Lord of the Rings, Sherlock Holmes, Star Wars (and Lynyrd Skynyrd and Peter Frampton)
I've been thinking. Breaking Dawn Part 2 is coming out at the end of the year.
And then what?
What's going to happen with Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Saga? More films? A new television series?
What about the Leah-Renesmee sequel?
And the two sequels for The Host? And their movies?
And the several-hundred-pages-already-written cannibalistic mermaid series?
And what about the book that shall not be named, (gasp), Midnight Sun?
I started comparing Twilight with other notable franchises. And I've some thoughts to share with you about all that. I'd love to hear your thoughts, too, in comments below.
"I say, Holmes, this is a very long post. We're doomed."
"Great books aren't written, they're re-written." – Michael Crichton
The Lord of the Rings
J.R.R. Tolkien wrote a young adult novel, "The Hobbit," in 1937. You've probably heard of it.
The publisher's young son read the final draft for "The Hobbit," pronounced it "good" but said it needed some maps, so Tolkien drew those out, they were added, and the book was published. It did alright. It's since been published in countless languages and editions.
(You'll be able to see the first half of the story — along with some additions merely-alluded-to in the text about the resurrection of Sauron — in an upcoming film version from Peter Jackson to be released in theaters on December 14, 2012.)
So, since that turned out alright, Professor Tolkien decided to write some sequels. Great idea!
But things did not go so well this time. First, the publishers rejected his original plans for the sequel. Second, it was written in stages between 1937 and 1949, which is a very long time. Especially because he'd actually started jotting down notes long before he wrote "The Hobbit." So, decades went into the sequel. Which is a H-E-double-hockey-sticks long time to write one stinkin' story.
It took a long time because Tolkien wasn't entirely sure how he wanted the story to go. For example, after the hobbits leave the Shire, they stumble upon an Adam and Eve set of characters, who sing a lot. And the hobbits are almost destroyed by a bunch of ghosts. The story kind of stops around there. That section was cut out of the film (they just trudge through the swamps on-screen).
Originally, half of the sequel was originally supposed to be, "The Lord of the Rings," which is itself a collection of six books (two within each part of the trilogy). You've probably heard of that one, too.
The other half was "The Silmarrillion." Which you probably haven't heard of. Because it wasn't ever finished. (There is a book published with that title, but it is based on unfinished manuscripts and random writing exercises and, frankly, is a bit difficult to get through. It was "polished" and released by Tolkien's son, who has since released a few more fleshed-out stories from his father. They aren't exactly great, but who can blame him?)
As for "The Lord of the Rings," it was completed, published, adored (voted "greatest book of all time," which, you know, is pretty good), and of course made into three films, which will make over $3 billion-with-a-B dollars before it's all said and done. Even though it has been repeatedly attacked as total crap by many, many, many literary "experts."
Regardless, that turned out alright, didn't it? Other than the fact that it all turned out completely different from what Tolkien originally had in mind.
"Easy reading is damn hard writing." – Nathaniel Hawthorne
Sherlock Holmes
Arthur Conan Doyle wrote a series of crime stories about a character named Sherlock Holmes. Which you probably already know.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney stormed to a convincing win in Florida's Republican presidential primary Tuesday, bolstering the front-runner's argument that he is the best candidate to compete with President Barack Obama in swing states in the general election, reports Brandon Larrabee of the News Service of Florida.
With 98 percent of precincts reporting, Romney had 46 percent of the vote to former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich's 32 percent. Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum and Texas Congressman Ron Paul were running far behind, with 13 and 7 percent of the vote, respectively.
The win allowed Romney to show off his ability to win a state that will be the largest competitive prize in the November showdown with Obama.

Exactly what You're Thirsting Intended for; The Revitalizing Properties involving Water
It's 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and you're looking for something to haul you out of the energy slump. The very best choices tend to be sugar- or even fat-laden snacks from a vending device or beverages loaded with caffeine.
Nice snacks can create surges and dips in blood sugar levels, which will make you're feeling more fatigued. And fatty meals do little for your energy. That donut may have appeared like recommended when you were famished, yet, soon, it's like it is possible to feel that sitting in your gut, evaluating you along.
Beverages meant to give you an energy jolt can also have the opposite impact. Just one cup of coffee might help keep a person energized for approximately six hours, but caffeine can result in a period of tiredness by interfering with REM sleeping. Alcohol presents a increase whammy; that causes your body to lose nutrients, plus it warps sleeping patterns.
Here's a secret to revitalization, particularly effective for the afternoon blahs: Treat yourself to a tall, ice-cold glass of drinking water.
Water has wonderful restorative properties. It's a natural, fat-free appetite suppressant which contains no calories no cholesterol. It is lower in sodium, helps your body metabolize fat, helps maintain skin and muscle strengthen, and improves energy.

Needed for the image of the end of a screw wire thread until the end of the second and ensure the ends of the wire closely. If there are no frames in the mirror should be mirror clips instead.

This post is part of Protein Angst, a series on the environmental and nutritional complexities of high-protein foods. Our goal is to publish a range of perspectives on these very heated topics. Add your feedback and story suggestions here.
Most vegetarians are tired of being asked, "Where do you get your protein?" by a seemingly concerned family member, friend, or even stranger.
I know many vegetarians and none of us have come close to suffering from Kwashiorkor. Never heard of it? It's a form of malnutrition from lack of protein, found in areas of famine and extreme poverty. Protein deficiency is rare in the developed world, despite a significant portion of the population eschewing meat.
So where did this idea come from that vegetarians and vegans are doomed to a life of protein deficiency?
