Why do people in Florida not speak with a southern accent?
Florida is located in the South right next to South Carolina. However, it is said that other than some people such as a rapper called Plies, most of people in Florida do not speak with a southern accent. Why?
ASUGRAD
I know what you mean. I moved to FL from Colorado and was born in Arizona. I found that Florida is diverse. Far North FL is similar in demographic profile to Alabama. The FL panhandle is like Alabama, and the local southerners even consider it part of LA = Lower Alabama, a regional term for that part of the "Deep South." I think many Floridians of North FL are southern in every extent of the word except that they don't have the accent. A good example is Tim Tebow - the Baptist football Heisman Trophy Winner of Jacksonville, FL. He is southern, a devout Baptist, and a football star of the SEC. But he doesn't have a southern accent. Most North Floridians are like that - they are deeply southern in tradition with a love of football and NASCAR but for some reason don't have that accent. Go Gators! If you look at the fans at a typical home game they are ethnically diverse, which is representative of the state.

By contrast, Central Florida is more "northern" and actually has many people who moved there from the upper east coast or midwest. South Florida is very much representative of Latin America or the Caribbean cultures: Cuban, Haitian, Brazilian, Columbian, Nicaraguan, Chile, Ecuador, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rican, etc. The Seminoles, albet a small tribe, are also heavily recognized in the media of Florida - the only eastern tribe to have never surrendered in the era of Manifest Destiny, but now they are part of South FL society as recognized citizens.

So Florida is diverse. I enjoyed North FL. I had a southern blonde girlfriend who was Protestant, which was ironic for a brown, Catholic Native American from rural Arizona. Go figure. I learned that southern whites intermixed with Native Americans a lot. Which is why most modern Cherokees are part white because of the Confederate pattern of intermarrying with them. John Wayne showed it best in his movie "The Undefeated" when his adopted Cherokee son and scout for the Union Army rides off into the sunset with a white southern belle - the daughter of a Confederate Colonel fleeing the south in the aftermath of the Civil War.

Now knowing that Florida borders Georgia and the far west panhandle borders Alabama, many in the northern part of Florida including the panhandle do speak with a Southern accent; however, many people from throughout the USA have relocated to South Florida, especially those from the snowy Midwestern and Northern states.
There are so many transplants from New York, New Jersey and beyond, South Florida has pretty much lost any "Southern" accent and culture it ever had.
Two Smoking Guns
For starters, Georgia is between South Carolina and Florida, but they too have an accent, so the only thing I can tell you is that SOME Floridians speak with a unique accent that you only hear in Florida.
And it does, in some ways, resemble what you are thinking of as a "southern accent".
Actually Florida does not border South Carolina, it only borders Alabama and Georgia.
People Have "southern" accents all across the U.S.A. It has less to do with what state you are in and more if you are in a populated city or a rural area. That is why i prefer to call it "country" accents.
huckins
You had over 100 years from the time of the primary everlasting English payment (Jamestown was once settled in 1607) to the time of Washington's start (George Washington was once born in 1732). On best of that there have been a number of different countries which situated colonies in what might grow to be the United States for the duration of that interval (Spain's first colony honestly predates the Roanoke Island colony, aka the Lost Colony, which predated Jamestown). Because of this there was once plentiful time for the American accents to increase by the point Washington was once born. The combo of English, French, Dutch, Spanish, Scottish, German, and Native American might have prompted the evolution of the American accessory by the point he was once born. But it isn't as sensible as might he have spoken with an American accessory as you would ought to appear on the unique neighborhood accessory he might have had. He might have spoken with a Southern American accessory which might were extraordinary from a New England American accessory. And in view that he was once from Virginia his Southern accessory would not be rather the equal as that of the Deep South which might be a bit of thicker.
Did You Know Other Language's Outside From English Like Swahili, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, Kikongo Etc??
Native English speakers, could you please help me with these issues?


This article deals with incidents where a service member has tried to defraud another by means of forgery or has passed on or used a forged document. The accused is punished as deemed right through a court martial process. The assumption is that the accused's act of forgery caused someone to undertake a liability which was not his or lose a right which he was entitled to.
That at a specific time and place, the accused fraudulently made or altered a specific signature that appeared on a written document/ a check or a part thereof.
That the check or written document would (if it were genuine) impose a liability on another or change his right or duty in a manner unfavorable to him in a specific way.
That the accused carried out the act of forgery with an intent to defraud.
Note: a) Even when actual fraud has not taken place, the accused has violated this article if intent to defraud can be established during the trial.
b) Intent to deceive is not the same as the intent to defraud. If the defense can establish that the accused intended to deceive but did not intend to cause a loss of some kind to another or gain of some kind to himself, he may not be in violation of this article.
Maximum Punishment: The accused faces maximum punishment of forfeiture of all allowances and pay, dishonorable discharge and 5 years confinement.
That a specific signature that appeared on a written document/ a check or a part thereof was falsely affixed or altered in a specific manner.
That at a specific time and place, the accused offered/ uttered/ transferred/ issued this written document or check.
Maximum Punishment: The accused faces 5 years confinement, forfeiture of all allowances and pay and dishonorable discharge as maximum punishment.
In both a) and b), the accused is guilty of 'altering' the check or written document when he has brought about a change of any kind in its legal tenor, for example, changing the date in a promissory note. Any document/ check that has been delivered to the accused with genuine writing and later found to be altered is deemed to have been altered by the accused. The accused has not committed forgery when he genuinely makes a false instrument with a clear intent to defraud. For example, if he signs his name on a check from a bank where he does not have an account, this crime is not one of forgery since this is a check signed by its actual maker.

The Quebec Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food is warning consumers not to eat a brand of lobster paste sold from an outlet on the Îles-de-la-Madeleine because safe consumption of the product cannot be ensured.
The warning issued for "Tomali de homard des Îles-de-la-Madeleine" applies to all items sold until July 16 by the Poissonnerie Unipêche M.D.M. ltée, located at 66 Quai Ave., in Paspébiac. The lobster paste is packaged in glass jars, and the label includes "Usine #FC-197" among the product information.
The ministry's advisory warns that even if the product seems fresh and no suspicious odour is detected, it could still present a health risk and should be returned to the point of purchase.
No cases of illness or other ill effects caused by the product have been reported so far.

Children Devote Art for Taxes' Sake
By Gregory Feifer
In its latest bid to guilt citizens into paying their taxes, the Tax Ministry has mobilized a sector of society whose words it hopes would-be taxpayers will heed: their children.
Tax Minister Alexander Pochinok opened a weeklong exhibition of children's drawings, dubbed "Coffers Make a Kingdom Strong," in Moscow on Monday as part of the first All-Russia Competition of Children's Drawings and Posters.
The one-room exhibit, at the Culture Ministry's Rosizo Museum and Gallery, features pictures selected by a jury as the best of some 1,500 submitted so far by children from across Russia ages 5 and up.
"Our task is to teach taxpayers to pay their taxes in the simplest way possible," a beaming Pochinok said. "Children understand the mechanism of the tax system and know why taxes must be paid and how they are collected.
"Good taxpayers are growing up and we have to create a good tax system for them," he added.
Russia is notorious for its Byzantine tax system and rampant tax evasion. The Tax Ministry has tried to change that with public awareness campaigns, including television spots featuring unpaid public sector employees, such as teachers, or animated shorts hyperbolizing the consequences of skipping out on taxes. Other tactics have involved well-publicized commando-style raids on businesses alleged to have withheld tax payments.
The display features a number of drawings reminiscent of early Soviet avant-garde along the lines of Alexander Rodchenko, as well as scenes with characters from traditional fairy tales.
One picture by Sonya Grachyova, 14, in the style of 1920s and 1930s propaganda posters exhorting the public to work harder, depicts a geometric red figure with a raised sledgehammer: "Those who know how to work aren't afraid to pay their taxes!"
Another display item shows a cartoon by Andrei Vokhmyakov, 13, with a fully outfitted U.S. soldier next to a Russian counterpart wearing only underwear emblazoned with a hammer and sickle. "Don't you have any equipment?" the American asks."Only when people paid taxes," the other replies.
Another picture - depicting one leafy half of a tree with roots labeled "taxes" and a bare half without any roots labeled "Don't cut it down" - came tumbling down during the opening. "You missed the most interesting part," quipped Pochinok to a latecomer. "The tax tree came down."
Another picture, not part of the exhibit, has been chosen to adorn 1 million postal envelopes. It shows a chick hatching from its egg, saying, "Where do I pay my taxes around here?"
Pochinok said Monday the Tax Ministry is still processing payments from March, for which the ministry set a target level of 35 billion rubles ($1.2 billion). The tax minister said last month that collections were likely to reach 40 billion rubles. February's take reached 41.5 billion rubles.
Analysts said last month that April could see record-high collections as natural-resource monopolies are now paying their taxes in cash as opposed to quasi-payments like promissory notes and commodities.
Meanwhile, reforms aimed at consolidating and simplifying the Tax Code as well as lowering the country's draconian tax rates are making their way through parliament, but slowly. The International Monetary Fund, which froze a promised $4.5 billion loan last year, has made tax reform a key condition for further financial aid.
This is by no means the first time tax authorities have engaged children in making good citizens out of their parents. Schoolchildren returning to classes in September 1998 after the previous month's financial crash were greeted with a stern message that they could be deprived of a free education if their parents failed to pay taxes.
Although Pochinok grinned from ear to ear Monday, tax collection is no laughing matter. Russia owes billions of dollars in foreign debt on top of having to pay a massive army of pensioners and public sector employees.
The tax minister declared last Friday that even Father Frost, Russia's version of Santa Claus, had paid his taxes.

Cheboygan hockey falls to Lakeland, Chippewa Valley United in Showcase
Jared Greenleaf
Cheboygan Daily Tribune
CHEBOYGAN – It's a been tough stretch for the Cheboygan Chiefs hockey team as of late.
Over the weekend, the struggles continued for the Chiefs, who dropped a pair of contests in their annual Cheboygan Christmas Showcase at Ralph G. Cantile Arena.
Though the shorthanded Chiefs came up on the losing end in both games, head coach Craig Coxe praised his team for its performances against two quality opponents.
"To tell you the truth, I told my guys after both games that I couldn't have been more proud of them," said Coxe. "We unfortunately had to play all weekend with only 12 skaters, and the 12 guys did an outstanding job. I was very happy with how they played. They worked their (butts) off out there.
"I'm really proud of how they played all weekend."
On Friday night, the Chiefs battled but ultimately fell short in a 3-0 loss to the Lakeland Eagles in their opening game of the showcase.
Led by the goaltending of senior Chaston Rose, the Chiefs (2-7) kept the game scoreless until late in the second period. However, the Eagles were finally rewarded for their constant pressure when Luke Weinberger broke the deadlock thanks to a goal with 2:20 left until the intermission.
While the Chiefs struggled to make the most of their power play opportunities, the Eagles got the all-important insurance goal they were craving when Weinberger scored again with 4:18 remaining. The Chiefs created a few scoring chances late, but were denied by Lakeland goaltender Paul Baker, who stopped all 18 shots he faced.
Weinberger sealed the win for Lakeland, scoring an empty-net goal and picking up his hat trick near the end of the game.
Rose was solid for Cheboygan in net, stopping 27 Lakeland shots.
"The game on Friday, that team (Lakeland), they beat the Sault just a couple weeks ago, and we went into it and had a game plan, we stuck to the game plan, and the boys did really, really well," Coxe said. "Unfortunately, you can still play a good game and lose, and that's what happened on Friday."
The Eagles finished with a 30-18 shot advantage over the Chiefs in the game.
On Saturday, the Chiefs returned with a strong first period against Chippewa Valley United, as senior forward Luke Karsten scored an unassisted goal well over five minutes into the game. The Chiefs held onto their advantage going into the first intermission.
Chippewa Valley provided a solid response of their own, tying the game with a goal from Kaden Jackson early in the second, but the Chiefs retook the lead when sophomore forward Sean Postula scored to make it 2-1 with 4:31 remaining in the period. Unfortunately for the Chiefs, their lead didn't last long as Chippewa Valley tied the game again seconds later after Shane Stone scored with 4:03 left in the second.
Chippewa Valley carried its momentum into the third and took control, as Carter Kaul and Jackson each scored goals to give the visitors a 4-2 advantage they would not relinquish.
"Even Saturday, we played really hard again, but it's a lot to ask of 12 players to play two games in less than 24 hours against two teams that are good teams and had a full bench," Coxe said. "On Saturday, we just started to run out of gas late in the second and in the third period because it's hard to keep the same strength up for two games in less than 24 hours.
"I'm very proud of how they played."
Seniors Carson Bigger and Blaine Baldwin both assisted on Postula's goal in the second, while junior goaltender Sawyer Graham made 34 saves.
While the Chiefs haven't been able to snap out of a recent losing skid just yet, Coxe said he likes where his team's mindset is at going into the final days of December, which will feature three road contests.
"I think they're taking it OK, they know that they're working hard," Coxe said. "They know that the coaching staff is extremely happy with them, so they're definitely going to get a little frustrated with not putting the puck in the net, but we just tell them to keep their positive attitudes and to keep working hard and hopefully better things will come in the future."
Cheboygan travels to Tawas for a 6 p.m. matchup on Wednesday, Dec. 21.
Almost a week after facing the Braves, the Chiefs will head to Alpena for two games next week. The Chiefs will face Capital City on Tuesday, Dec. 27, then take on Manistee on Wednesday, Dec. 28.

Final Obamacare push will pitch to low-income youth
David Morgan, Reuters
WASHINGTON -- In the final months leading up to the launch of the key piece of President Barack Obama's healthcare reforms, the administration is preparing a public-education campaign designed to connect directly with the audience most critical for the law's success.
The effort will focus on selling the merits of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act to 2.7 million Americans with little or no health coverage, who are 18-to-35 years old, mostly male, and largely nonwhite, including many who are black or Hispanic, officials involved in the planning told Reuters.
The idea is to get them enrolled in private health plans through online marketplaces that will offer coverage in all 50 states at prices defrayed by federal subsidies, which many should qualify for because of their lower incomes and lack of adequate insurance.
Participation of young consumers is central to the success of the new state healthcare exchanges, and Obama's reform law, because the young tend to have little need for medical services and are cheaper to insure. That will compensate for older, sicker people who are expected to sign up in droves because the law bans discriminatory pricing and treatment for those with preexisting conditions.
Some supporters of the 2010 law have worried in recent months that the administration was not doing enough to inform this group, and the public generally, about changes the reforms will bring. Of particular concern is the word on the healthcare exchanges, where individuals and families with low-to-moderate incomes will be able to purchase private health insurance at prices set according to income.
Current and former administration officials said the outreach will employ the same methods used in Obama's reelection campaign, which relied heavily on social media, grass-roots organizing and demographics to reach young people, minorities and women. Members of the young target audience tend to be concentrated in major metropolitan areas, and about a third are believed to live in just three states: California, Texas and Florida.
"Whatever happened in the past 3-1/2 years, this is the most important moment now because we're no longer dealing in abstraction. Millions of people are going to be able to touch and feel something," said David Simas, who oversaw opinion research for Obama's reelection. He became a deputy senior adviser to the president in February and is one of the leading advisers for the campaign.
Due to begin this month, the marketing push will cost hundreds of millions of dollars and will complement promotions by private groups including the nonprofit Enroll America, which is headed by a former Obama White House aide and supported by healthcare groups, private companies and consumer advocacy organizations.
Officials say the government outreach will be covered by about $1.25 billion the administration has scraped from funds within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the original congressional allocation for implementation.
Republicans in Congress have blocked new money for the effort so they can use its failure as a winning issue in the 2014 congressional midterm election campaign. House Republicans just voted to repeal the law in what was their 37th attempt to kill or defund some part of it.
Reuters spoke to several government officials, including Simas, about the implementation drive.
The objective is to "surround" low-income young adults with messaging about the healthcare benefits by tapping channels more apt to reach them: cable television, radio, churches, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, online chat rooms and youth-oriented magazines. The White House and HHS are also in discussions with celebrities, sports leagues and franchises that may be willing to help promote coverage.
The Spanish-language cable networks Univision, Telemundo and impreMedia are already considering a nationwide expansion of their joint media program, which has been praised by Obama, to advocate for healthcare reform in California. The three news competitors have agreed with a private healthcare foundation, called the California Endowment, to encourage Latinos to enroll in the state's health insurance exchange by sponsoring print, television, radio and Web-based promotions.
One White House official said the youth-targeting strategy was so important to the success of enrollment that if it didn't work, none of the larger efforts would make a difference.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) - widely referred to as Obamacare by many Americans - has already begun to bring fundamental changes to the $2.8 trillion healthcare system through a series of reforms aimed at lowering out-of-pocket costs, improving access to preventive care and encouraging new healthcare business models intended to restrain cost growth.
Beginning Oct. 1, the law will also begin offering subsidized health coverage to millions of low-to-moderate income people through the online state-insurance marketplaces and an expansion of the Medicaid program for the poor in states that accept the provision. Coverage begins Jan. 1, when the law takes full effect, and individuals who don't have it will face a penalty that begins at $95 in 2014, rising to 2.5 percent of annual income in 2016.
The government aspires to sign up 7 million uninsured and under-insured Americans in the first year of reform.
Obama has avoided the bully pulpit since signing the healthcare legislation into law, according to former advisers who concluded that strong public opposition would not begin to change until after the reforms became tangible.
But the president has made two public appearances over the past month to explain the ACA benefits. During the Oct. 1-to-March 31 enrollment period, he will do more, though sticking with the soft sell, said administration officials.
Critics complain the White House has adopted too low a profile on health reform so far, and fear the effort to explain to a skeptical and in many cases misinformed public is coming too late to persuade them that participation is a good thing.
One of the most prominent recent critics has had a change of heart. Democrat Max Baucus, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, sounded the alarm in April about how few details were shared with Congress about outreach efforts. He warned of a coming "train wreck" if the administration were to fail to enroll enough Americans for coverage.
The comment, which was zealously seized upon by healthcare reform's Republican foes, clearly worried the White House. Since then, Chief of Staff Denis McDonough has taken on a more prominent behind-the-scenes role by holding meetings every two weeks with Baucus on healthcare. He chats as often by phone with HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.
"I'm more confident about implementation today," Baucus said in a statement in response to a query from Reuters. "The administration has been much better about keeping me and my colleagues up-to-date on their efforts."
To prepare for the autumn enrollment, White House officials say Sebelius and her lieutenant, Marilyn Tavenner, administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, will travel this summer to meet with local leaders and community organizers as part of a "soft-education campaign" about coming benefits.
By the time the marketing push gains momentum in September and October, government officials say an important messaging advantage will be working in its favor.
As many as two-thirds of the intended audience, they say, have had insurance coverage but lost it after being laid off or switching to an employer who doesn't offer it. That means the message can focus on the cost and relative value of the plans. Pricing information is still being worked out, but premiums will run more than the penalty. One fear is that the $95 disincentive is too low to prompt young people to pay more for insurance they may not believe they need.
The worry is unwarranted, said Simas. "When you ask a 26-year-old male or female why they don't have insurance, they say they can't afford it - 'The job doesn't offer it, I can't afford it.' Rarely will you hear that it's not important."


When a photosensitive seizure warning was shown before this film, I felt a bit scared because our family had a history of epilepsy and I read online that this could be a latent condition triggered by intensive flashing lights. I made sure that I had my eyes closed throughout that lengthy, agonizing CT scan scene even if I didn't usually cover my eyes while watching horror movies.
The intriguing opening sequence properly set the tone for this Norwegian version of Carrie. It involved a father, a young girl, a hunting rifle, and a deer. My heart was completely racing when the rifle was pointed instead at something that I didn't expect. I wonder if PETA would support that decision.
I didn't completely buy the themes of coming out slash coming-of-age vis a vis religious repression, but I really liked the stunning imagery used here (except for that clumsy Wikipedia part). The most chilling scene involved a search for a missing baby and its subsequent discovery under a frozen lake. Definitely the stuff of (parental) nightmares.


Good Fun Friday morning everyone. Hi, Lynnette here. I just wanted to pop on here for a bit to personally THANK all of our new fans. You all are amazing! THANK YOU for becoming informed to make great health decisions for you and your family. I also wanted to let the new fans know and all else who does not know, WHY I began this health journey and what paths led me to be the activist that I am around the world! I have failed to reflect on the very reason I began my crusades around the country. I failed to continually reach out and show support to the ONE and ONLY cause and Charity that is near and dear to my heart. It is my family's OWN CHARITY. Our own son's charity. The Coty Pate Foundation for Respiratory Papillomatosis. Our son was born with a RARE UNCURABLE Disease. (only he was not properly diagnosed with it till 18 months old after he nearly strangled because his pediatrician told us he had a bad case of colic, then he once said it was acute asthma, then bronchitis) The disease Coty, encountered was Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP) also known as the HPV virus.(the HPV virus will surprise you of what is is and what it is NOT) This disease KILLS more children than heart related disease or HIV. It is a SILENT killer. Our son encountered 28 surgeries, with 7 different surgeons and 2 near death experiences! We started this Non Profit 501c3 back in 2002. (we are reactivating this month) This Charity was actually to get kids to the RIGHT doctor to be treated and cured. We did NOT try to raise money for 'finding a cure' or money for 'awareness'. Any money we raised simply went to help children get to where they needed to go. We got airlines to donate flights, we used Angel Flight (what an amazing group of caring pilots)! We worked our butts off to create the awareness ourselves. We did hold festivals and auctions. We created a platform to EDUCATE the public and EDUCATE the doctors.
I have failed to FOCUS on the main reason for my outreach to the world! Please read more at the old page below. (it needs a lot of work) Our Charity out reach and mission motto is: BUDDIES FOR BREATHING....Not All Wheezers Are Asthmatic.
** I failed to continue to preach about this deadly disease because my message to the world continually gets hidden or out right deleted from many pages. My message about this deadly disease and the cure and how I actually spoke with Merck Pharmaceutical continually gets REJECTED. In which by the way, I speak of how Merck presented the largest hoax of a vaccine with the dreaded Gardasil! I speak of how this hoax was evolved. You will be surprised of how they came up with this fantastic marketing ploy to young girls. You want to know why they hide my story? Because I HAVE THE TRUTH. I have the knowledge and I have the REAL scenario of how my son got this detrimental disease. So after 10 years of continually getting in front of news leaders, radio stations, tv stations and even in our own little organic world...and they all REFUSE to air my son's message, I just stopped being so proactive on the situation.
I did NOT stop at the first opinion, nor the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 4th, 6th, etc. I KEPT on looking for answers and KNEW there had to be a cure IF they could have all these unnecessary surgeries with all their technology! I and my family searched the nation for answers. We did it on OUR OWN. We did NOT wait for the CURE. We diligently searched for it. I knew something just was not right. I kept telling the doctors that they just wanted to keep Coty sick so that he would endure more and more surgeries so they could make more and more money. Yes, back then I was a very in-your-face type of a person! They were 'experimenting' with my son's life for goodness sake! I REFUSED to take yes for the final answer. Meaning, the doctors continually told me: "Yes, this is all we can do, Yes, this is the diagnosis we are giving your son, Yes, he will have surgeries for the rest of his life".
We were told that our son would have surgeries for the rest of his life or he would probably die! Who likes those suggestions???
As the years went on, I drew very frustrated and angered at the western medical system. I could not figure out for the life of me how on earth that all these 'doctors' could NOT cure my son! I mean they could perform all the surgeries in the world with the highest technology in some of the best children's hospitals in the nation.
Remember, I told you we went through 7 different surgeons! They basically all had the same answer with a twist on procedures. At the young age of 14, Coty suffered a severe attack and he nearly died for the 2nd time. We thought we were not going to make it to the hospital on time for emergency surgery. After all, this is the ONLY thing I knew to do at that time, is have surgery to clear his air passage. (Of course when children are this far gone, then it is necessary to have a procedure done to relieve the air passage, or they will suffocate and die). Needless to say, I was NOT a happy mother, I was not a nice mother either. I confronted two of his surgeons that late night after Coty's surgery was over. I told them exactly what I thought of them and demanded them to give me someone else in this whole big wide world that could give us answers and cure my son! (only I did not say it this eloquently). I demanded them to give me more than their usual 5 to 10 minutes of their time which would be MY time. Well that late night, the two surgeons came back in and revealed the most beautiful statements that they could ever reveal to me. Although I was very ANGRY when they told me. They actually said: "Well Mrs. Pate, actually there is one doctor in the united states that may can help your son. We have actually been in touch with him for the past 5 years and he might have the remedy to treat your son. Huh??? What?? You meant to tell me you had another doctor to possibly give me answers and treat my son for the past 5 freakin' years and you have not told me this!? Their answer: "Well we did not tell you about him, because we do not believe in what he does, although he does practice in a western medicine hospital in Denver, CO, but we deem him as a "quack doctor"!. You've got to be kidding me, right? You dirty stinkin' doctors! How dare you with hold any information from me that could possibly save my son.
Long story short, we were connected to this amazing doctor in Denver, CO the following day, Monday. He practically diagnosed our son over the phone. This doctor actually spent over 45 minutes on the phone with me! Wow, now in the world of Memphis, TN this was unheard of to spend time with a patient or family member. The following 2 weeks later, my husband, Coty and I were on a plane to Denver, CO to meet with this "Quack" doctor. Low and behold, again this doctor now spent over 2 hours with my husband and I explaining the nature of this disease, how he got it and how and why the other doctors half way diagnosed our son. He went on to let me know, that there is more money in surgeries than there is in cures. Now, everyone keep in mind, this was over 10 years ago. I realize we ALL know this by now. But that hit hard to me, in which I already accused the doctors of that very statement.
We spent a year and a half going back and forth to Denver to get Coty the proper treatments. He was CURED! NOT put in 'remission' not bandaging it up, but he was actually CURED! You can learn more details and complete story at any of my seminars around the country.
On a HAPPY Note. Coty is ALIVE ant thriving at the awesome age of 25 years old. He is disease FREE and surgery FREE for over 10 years now! He enjoys his life as a top chef and manager of an amazing restaurant. He is totally organic in all his house hold. He KNOWS how real foods and natural remedies CURED and reversed his disease!
So you see, my friends, where there is LIFE, there IS HOPE! Going from nearly dead twice and not growing and losing his voice TO almost qualifying for the Jr. Olympics, then he opted to embark in the culinary arts!
THIS is exactly what put me on my journey and mission of today! I decided right then and there that I needed to educate my self in every manner that I could. I went to every seminar, on line course, doctors meetings and nutrition classes that I could possibly get into my schedule. I studied under two holistic doctors to further my education and learning. I read and studied some more! I figured IF I could figure all this out then the rest of the world could to. So I decided to give the world a boost and help; them to see the reality and be a disease free and sick free world! I am YOUR VOICE. YOUR Enlightenment, YOUR insight to take your health back!
You can find out complete details about this DEADLY disease and how it is contracted. Also find out how to treat this disease as well as the myths and truths about the HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) in one of my many speaking engagements around the country. I gave my son his disease. YES, I gave it to him. Want to know how? Well, if you read my bio, you will see that I grew up on Monsanto farm lands in the early 70's. We had the best of the best crops with all the GMOs (yes GMOs were around in the 70's even in the late 60's) more on this in my seminars. Also we had amazing weed killers such as round up, herbicides and insecticides. Oh boy were my grand parents in business now! Sigh! I gave my son his disease because I was very TOXIC with all the poisons I ingested all during my life! He gathered my toxins and the disease was born with him. I had suffered my own kidney failure and at the ripe old age of 8 years young I encountered my kidney surgery. Then I suffered over 26 years of continual kidney complications. Now, we see how GMO's are directly related to organ failure and more so on the kidneys. This is also why my message to the public NEVER gets attention. Because once again, I have the HARD TRUTH of the real detriments of GMO's and all the toxic Monsanto poisons.
***Remember, not all wheezers are asthmatic! They are often mis-diagnosed with asthma, croup, bronchitis, reflux, colic, etc. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE if your child has any of these diagnosis, please double check to see if anything lurks in the vocal chords, esophagus or lungs. ***There have been a few cases that the SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) was actually caused by Respiratory Papillomatosis. Children often do not reach age 5, and die in their sleep due to suffocation and or strangulation.
Coty's air passage 97 % blocked with papilloma from his vocal chords to his esophagus to his lungs.
Coty's HERO. Dr. Nigel Pashley. On his road to FULL Recovery!
Coty TODAY! Age 25. Alive and Thriving! Disease FREE. Surgery FREE!


Earlier this week in The New Republic, historian Sonya Michel sharply criticized the organization seeking to bruild a women's history museum in Washington. Michel lamented the disbanding of a panel of professional historians advising the musuem, and criticized what she described as amateurish, error-ridden, and anodyne content in an online exhibit and promotional museum.
Here, the museum's president responds to Michel's article.
Joan Bradley Wages, President & CEO, National Women's History Museum, Inc.
After nearly twenty years of working to secure passage of legislation to move the National Women's History Museum forward, we are thrilled to be closer than ever to seeing this bill become law. With strong bi-partisan support in both houses and real momentum behind the legislation, I'm confident this is our year!
When the National Women's History Museum opens its doors it will tell the story of women's history and highlight the many contributions of women from all walks of American life. The effort to detail that history will be led by the museum's curators, but like any museum, it will involve the contributions of historians and other experts whose skills and knowledge are absolutely necessary to telling an accurate and comprehensive story.
When we get to the point of discussing content of the museum we hope to partner with existing institutions like the Smithsonian and other world-class museums that have exemplary processes we could model to ensure the museum's programs and exhibits are accurate, credible, relevant and communicated in ways easily understood by the general public.
As our effort to establish a Congressional commission has picked up steam, concerns about the content of the museum have been raised. These critiques provide us with the opportunity to have the discussion about how a museum should be built and moves us past the discussion of whether a museum should be built at all.
That's why the National Women's History Museum non-profit has shifted focus to educating the public about the need for a museum and meeting our large fundraising goals. The entire project will be funded without using a dime of taxpayer money—so it's a massive undertaking.
Let's leave the exhibit plan, location, governance and organizational structure up to the bipartisan congressional commission as have other successful museums, like the National Museum of African American History and Culture. Let's not prejudge the museum's directors, curators and historians, by criticizing the content they haven't even had a chance to develop. Let's work together to encourage and strengthen their efforts.
In its present state, the National Women's History Museum is a small non-profit. We're simply doing the best we can to tell the story of women's history and lay the groundwork for a museum that every American can enjoy.
In place of a physical museum, we've worked to develop content for our website, which we're constantly updating based on the input of historians and other experts. Where there are factual inaccuracies we've worked to correct them and where there are honest disagreements we've worked to incorporate diverse viewpoints. In spite of the harsh, and at times unfair, criticism that has been leveled by some, we remain committed to working to resolve legitimate concerns when they are raised. The good news is that almost everyone agrees that a National Women's History Museum ought to be built. We are delighted with the great momentum behind our legislation and confident that a world-class museum honoring the remarkable achievements of women and their invaluable contributions to society will soon grace our nation's capital.
What is most troubling about Joan Wages' response to my article is that she seems to assume that she and her non-profit organization will be the ones to lead the effort to build and operate a bricks-and-mortar museum, should the commission approve the project. While the NWHM is to be commended for its persistence in publicizing the need for a museum of women's history and bringing the issue before Congress, this record does not in itself qualify the organization to create and operate a world-class museum. Wages refers to "our effort to establish a Congressional commission," suggesting that the lawmakers have had no role in this process. The idea may well have come from NWHM, but surely the lawmakers now supporting the commission expect that it will operate independently and, in forming a new organization to create a museum, select a leader based on his or her professional qualifications and demonstrated ability to bring such a project to fruition.
Wages warns against prejudging "the museum's directors, curators and historians, by criticizing the content they haven't even had a chance to develop," but in fact the NWHM has had a chance to develop content. Its website is there for all to see what a museum operated by this organization would look like. The NWHM has fallen short not because it lacks resources but because it has failed to develop effective relationships with historians and museum professionals, many of whom have been more than willing to work with them on a voluntary basis.
I agree with Wages that the bipartisan support the museum commission currently enjoys in Congress should not be squandered, but I hope that lawmakers in both houses will take the opportunity to improve their bills by ensuring that historians have a place at the table and making it clear that in order to move the project forward, the commission will have to start from scratch and create a brand-new organization based on recognized historical expertise and experience in museum design and administration.


Internationally recognized as a visionary developer, Jorge M. Pérez, chairman, CEO & co-founder of The Related Group, is the force behind many of the iconic residential developments that comprise Miami's skyline. He's also a longtime patron of the arts, perhaps most visibly through generous donations to the coffers and collections of The Jorge M. Pérez Art Museum of Miami-Dade County, often referred to as PAMM.
For these contributions to the Greater Miami community, Mr. Pérez is Miami Today's 2017 Lifetime Achiever honoree.
The Related Group was launched in 1979 as a builder of affordable housing. Though the company's portfolio has since expanded to include ultra-luxury projects, it has never lost that original focus.
However, as building and land costs escalate and government subsidies shrink, producing affordable housing is becoming more difficult.
Before turning to development, Mr. Pérez was the city's economic development director, and his vision of Miami's future aligns with city initiatives. For example, he says, "we very much applaud the city's efforts to encourage affordable housing around transit hubs." He cites eased parking requirements for development in these areas.
Related, he says, tries to keep parking spaces to a minimum in high-density projects.
One thing Related's affordable housing projects do not skimp on is art.
Mr. Pérez, raised by Cuban parents in Argentina and Colombia, says his interest in art "goes a long way back. When I was in high school, my mother would drag me to museums and galleries and artist's studios.
"When I came to the US for college, whenever I had a little extra money I would buy whatever I could afford – mostly lithographs at that time.
A longtime collector of Cuban art, Mr. Pérez says he began visiting Havana a few years ago to meet the artists, many of whom are now good friends.

The Trump administration's new green-card rule could be 'a backdoor' to immigration reform, experts say
Last Monday, The Trump administration announced a new rule change that would make it harder for
immigrants to seek public benefits that included food stamps, housing assistance, and Medicaid if they were applying for a green card or citizenship. The rule change was just another example of the Trump Administration's efforts to assert their bureaucratic authority over the national government and the immigration process. Numerous White House officials have been determined to change the countries immigration laws dramatically.
Taking effect in mid-October, the new rule would essentially provide the government suppression of
immigrants allowed into the United States based on their economic background and how likely they
may be to use government programs. Acting US Citizenship and Immigration Services Director Ken
Cuccinelli said the goal is to bring "people to join us as American citizens, as legal permanent residents first, who can stand on their own two feet, who will not be reliant on the welfare system, especially in the age of the modern welfare state which is so expansive and expensive." Experts say that the new law would only welcome wealthier immigrants and better educated immigrants to enter the country rather than those of low incomes.
This new rule would thus be a backdoor for immigration reform. This was echoed by Bob Greenstein,
the president of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities," essentially puts a price tag on obtaining
lawful permanent residency in the United States, shifting it away from family-based immigration
toward one restricted to people who are already relatively well-off or highly skilled when they enter the country." A Migration Policy Institute analysis of the proposed rule change released last year found immigrants from Mexico and Central America would be at a significantly higher risk of having their green cards rejected compared with immigrants from other regions of the world. Those from Europe, Canada, and Oceania were the least likely to be negatively affected.
Our immigration attorneys provide extensive consultations, during which an immigration attorney
will review your immigration goals and eligibility, providing the guidance you need to make your
American dream come true. Call our office today at (203) 753-7300 for your confidential immigration

A Nielsen study found that in May 2012 there were 163 million unique U.S. video viewers who streamed over 26 billion videos. HTTP live streaming is a standard for both on-demand and live video streaming to mobile devices, providing a very scalable way to stream video to various screens and connected devices that don't support Flash.
Jivox announced interactive ad insertion for HTTP live streaming (HLS) for mobile sites and apps at the Interactive Advertising Bureau's (IAB) Marketplace – Mobile event. The new Jivox platform enables publishers and advertisers to insert interactive video ads into live television streams delivered to mobile devices. The Jivox technology allows advertisers to monetize programming across the TV and other screens, including smartphones and tablets.
"Viewers are increasingly accessing broadcast content from multiple devices and this requires a seamless approach to advertising. With our platform advertisers are guaranteed that their interactive video ad can be seen by their targeted audience no matter what screen they are watching. This extends the reach and engagement of their TV ad buy," explained Diaz Nesamoney, CEO of Jivox.
A winner of the IAB Mobile Rising Stars Awards for innovation in cross-platform interactive video ads, Jivox will also have a speaking engagement at the IAB Marketplace Mobile event on July 16th in New York.


I can't come up with a more accurate description than FML for my life right now. If you've somehow managed to avoid my moany updates about being sick with mono. Which, if you haven't tried it, can be pretty darn annoying, to say the least.
That's the reason why there have been no new posts (how do you take sick leave from a blog?), and the rest of my holiday has been cancelled.
Life's been against me this past year, I've jumped from one illness to another, all while trying to recover from a serious injury, just to get a setback when I'm forced to stay in bed.
There's not much positivity to find in that. The good news is that I have no intention to stop fighting, I'll put my energy into the things I can control, so let's get this Monday Motivation going!
I set these goals before I got mono, and by now I can't remember how they went – except for the running part, which I completed!
Go for short walks: The thing about mono, is that it can leave you exhausted for a long time afterwards. I know my mum struggled to walk up the stairs months after. It also messes with your liver and spleen, which means you have to be careful with exercises and alcohol for a little while (guess which one I hate the most).
Do the 2 easy knee exercises every other day: What makes it hard for me to be sick, is that as soon as I haven't moved my legs for just a couple of days, my knee starts hurting – badly. There's no way I'm able to hit the gym, or even just do my knee recovery workout, but I want to do the elastic band exercises. They're not that hard but is better than nothing.
Don't feel guilty about being sick: I'll be completely honest with you: I feel guilty for getting sick again. There's a tiny voice in my head that tells my I'm just lazy, and that I should feel bad for burdening my family and boyfriend again. I know it's against all logic (and my blood tests), but it's something I'm fighting with.
Because cute animals are the key to happiness and this way I can pretend I'm being productive when I spend hours looking at puppies – "It's for the blog!!!".
Also, there may not be an official treatment for mono yet, but I'm pretty sure baby animal therapy works.
Ugh! I had mono when I was 18, in my last year of highschool – it lingered on for MONTHS! I slept through prom and all of softball season, I hope you feel better soon! PS – you're welcome to link up this post in my #MotivateMe Monday Linky where we share our fitness goals for the week and a recap of our fitness from the past week. Cheers!
I have had mono three times while in college. It is the craziest thing!!! It leaves you WIPED.
You are incredible productive for a Monday – that's so awesome! I've never had mono which I'm grateful for, but I hope you feel better soon!
Super excited to set goals for myself as well! You go girl! And, what an amazing way to recap.
Good ideas for getting Monday motivated! I like it!

When Grumman Stood Alone
By Mark Thompson May 30, 2013
Grumman Corp.
The dictates of the market first consolidated hundreds of military contractors into dozens, and now only a handful remains: Boeing, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and Raytheon.
Sometimes it takes, of all things, an obituary of a titan from times past – like this one, of John Bierwirth, 89, who ran Grumman from 1972 to 1988, six years before Northrop swallowed it — to remind us of what has been lost. Grumman had been an independent company since its birth in 1929, and built some of the Navy's most revered aircraft, ranging from World War II's F6F Hellcats to the A-6 Intruders and F-14 Tomcats (of Top Gun fame) in the 1970s.
Sure, some elements of the business were the same then as now: cost overruns, failed efforts to expand into civilian markets, and overseas sales among them.
But there were victories to savor as well. In 1981, Bierwirth fought off an effort by the LTV Corp. to buy Grumman, going so far as to encourage his company's 23,000 employees – the largest employer on Long Island at the time – to buy stock to keep it out of LTV's hands. "It was like making a great play at the Super Bowl," he told Newsday in 1988, "and hearing the crowds cheer."
Godspeed – in a Tomcat, no doubt – Mr. Bierwirth.
