Cis is not targeted at gay white men, nor is it targeted at feminist women, nor is it targeted at any one particular demographic. Cis people are everywhere. At the most liberal interpretation we’re aware of, cis people make up ~480-495 out of every 500 people on Earth. Cis is not an insult, it’s not a slur. It is, however, as much of an identity as trans is, even if most cis people never stop to think about the fact that they’re cis, that they just assume that being what they are (”I’m just a

July Fourth Can Be Especially Stressful for Pets By Erica Little - The Register-Guard Fireworks have been a keenly appreciated tradition on the Fourth of July from the nation’s beginning. But what can be fun for people can be harsh on pets. Jerry Boggs, veterinarian and owner of Bush Animal Hospital in Eugene, says fireworks are an unfortunate way of celebrating the Fourth of July, as the noise makes many pets so anxious that they may harm themselves. In his 35 years as a veterinarian,

When considering a cruise vacation this is a very good question. The Cruise lines pre-book massive amounts of airline space.

What will the next generation iPhone bring? Well it’s a little too early to speculate on that but Apple is certainly working on it. A few new patents have emerged and they depict a few new features like haptic screens, RFID readers and fingerprint ID. The picture clearly suggests that such technology would definitely apply to the iPhone or the iPod touch. The screen is using a grid of piezoelectronic actuators that will offer a tactile vibration response every time you press the screen. Do

What they were emphatically not doing, said Jay Platt, the third-generation proprietor of the ranch, was abiding by a federally recommended livestock identification plan, intended to speed the tracing of animal diseases, that has caused an uproar among ranchers. They were not attaching the recommended tags with microchips that would allow the computerized recording of livestock movements from birth to the slaughterhouse. “This plan is expensive, it’s intrusive, and there’s no need for it,” Mr.

A trio of Apple patent applications unearthed this morning may help shed some light on future features and functionality headed to a new crop of iPhones. Then again we all know how easy it is for patents to lead absolutely nowhere. The first and most notable of the bunch is a haptic feedback concept employing a “grid of piezoelectronic actuators” that combine to form a fully tactile touchscreen. In theory, the device could vibrate these actuators in different combinations and at different freque

When you use OpenOffice.org, just save using “Save As…” rather than normal “Save”. When the dialog box comes up, click on the “Save as type” bar and select the type of file you want to save your work as. From then on you can just use “Save” for that file.

You can also configure your OpenOffice.org to save in Microsoft format by default.

However, OpenOffice.org is not a clone of Microsoft Office and is not intended to be a clone of Microsoft Office. It does something exactly the same, but some things very differently, on purpose. So be sure to check the guides at http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/userguide3/ and at http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/ where the version 3 guide still doesn’t exist.

Because OpenOffice.org is different product from Microsoft Office, they are not entirely compatible. Very rarely you will find that your file comes out looking a little different in Microsoft Office than it did in OpenOffice.org. You can always construct your file a little differently to get around this. But to know about it in advance, if it occurs. I suggest you download and install the free Microsoft viewers from http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/downloads/HA010449811033.aspx . Then you can check out exactly how your file will look in Microsoft Office.

Another answer is to download OpenOffice.org Portable from http://portableapps.com/apps/office/openoffice_portable . This is a special portable version of OpenOffice.org which you can install onto a flash drive, and then you can plug the flash drive into a USB port on any machine and run OpenOffice.org directly from the flash drive without installing it. This means you don’t have to convert your files to Microsoft Office format.

Can both behaviours be changed by using thought control, or is an addiction too difficult to overcome with thinking and self-discipline?

I thought humans could adapt and change to fit and survive in a particular social enviornment.

Is Alcoholics Anonymous correct when they tell people addicted to the drug alcohol that they are powerless?

Are humans truly so powerless over a behaviour?

As a person that once needed to change a problematic behaviour, I was told that I had a "disease". My addicted voice (inner voice) seemed to enjoy hearing that diagnosis as it then had permission to continue with that life threatening addiction. I had to challenge my addicted voice (conscience of ID), and supply it with another more healthy behaviour, like exercise.

What in the world is happening to this world?

People addicted to the drug alcohol pay several thousands of dollars to attend institutional Alcoholics Anonymous !!

A bad habit is something your brain has subconciously got used to doing. An addiction is when your brain needs it.

An addiction is seriously more powerful.

Fear grips immigrants after Miss. plant raid
By HOLBROOK MOHR
LAUREL, Miss. - A day after the largest single-workplace immigration raid in U.S. history, Elizabeth Alegria was too scared to send her son to school and worried about when she’d see her husband again.

Nearly 600 immigrants suspected of being in the country illegally were detained, creating panic among dozens of families in this small southern Mississippi town.

Alegria, 26, a Mexican immigrant, was working at the Howard Industries transformer plant Monday when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents stormed in. When they found out she has two sons, ages 4 and 9, she was fitted with a bracelet and told to appear in federal court next month. But her husband, Andres, wasn’t so lucky.

"I’m very traumatized because I don’t know if they are going to let my husband go and when I will see him," Alegria said through a translator Tuesday as she returned to the Howard Industries parking lot to retrieve her sport utility vehicle.

The superintendent of the county school district said about half of approximately 160 Hispanic students were absent Tuesday.

Roberto Velez, pastor at Iglesia Cristiana Peniel, where an estimated 30 to 40 percent of the 200 parishioners were caught up in the raid, said parents were afraid immigration officials would take them.

"They didn’t send their kids to school today," he said. "How scared is that?"

One worker caught in Monday’s sweep at the plant said fellow workers applauded as immigrants were taken into custody. Federal officials said a tip from a union member prompted them to start investigating several years ago.

Fabiola Pena, 21, cradled her 2-year-old daughter as she described a chaotic scene at the plant as the raid began, followed by clapping.

"I was crying the whole time. I didn’t know what to do," Pena said. "We didn’t know what was happening because everyone started running. Some people thought it was a bomb but then we figured out it was immigration."

About 100 of the 595 detained workers were released for humanitarian reasons, many of them mothers who were fitted with electronic monitoring bracelets and allowed to go home to their children, officials said.

About 475 other workers were transferred to an ICE facility in Jena, La. Nine who were under 18 were transferred to the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement.

John Foxworth, an attorney representing some of the immigrants, said eight appeared in federal court in Hattiesburg on Tuesday because they face criminal charges for allegedly using false Social Security and residency identification.

He said the raid was traumatic for families.

"There was no communication, an immediate loss of any kind of news and a lack of understanding of what’s happening to their loved ones," he said. "A complete and utter feeling of helplessness."

Those detained were from Brazil, El Salvador, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, and Peru, said Barbara Gonzalez, an ICE spokeswoman.

"We have kids without dads and pregnant mothers who got their husbands taken away," said Velez’s son, Robert, youth pastor at the church. "It was like a horror story. They got handled like they were criminals."

Howard Industries is in Mississippi’s Pine Belt region, known for commercial timber growth and chicken processing plants. The tech company produces dozens of products ranging from electrical transformers to medical supplies, according to its Web site.

Gonzalez said agents had executed search warrants at both the plant and the company headquarters in nearby Ellisville. She said no company executives had been detained, but this was an "ongoing investigation and yesterday’s action was just the first part."

A woman at the Ellisville headquarters told The Associated Press on Tuesday that no one was available to answer questions.

In a statement to the Laurel Leader-Call newspaper, Howard Industries said the company "runs every check allowed to ascertain the immigration status of all applicants for its jobs."

Gov. Haley Barbour recently signed a law requiring Mississippi employers to use a U.S. Homeland Security system to check new workers’ immigration status.

The law took effect July 1 for businesses with state contracts and takes effect Jan. 1 for other businesses. Mississippi lawmakers once used laptops made by Howard Industries, but it’s not clear whether the company has current state contracts.

Under the law, a company found guilty of employing illegal immigrants could lose public contracts for three years and the right to do business in Mississippi for a year.

The law also makes it a felony for an illegal immigrant to accept a job in Mississippi. A message was left with the district attorney’s office after hours seeking comment on whether he would use the law to bring state charges against Howard Industries or the workers.

The Mississippi raid is one of several nationwide in recent years.
