Some grief over Paul rally

MINNEAPOLIS - Ron Paul, the iconic Texas Republican whose presidential bid was wildly popular in small circles, but never managed to take off in the mainstream, is holding a rally this evening at the Target Center in Minneapolis just down the road from the Republican Party Convention in St. Paul. Thousands of people are expected to attend, but not everyone is thrilled about it.

Ross Marzolf of Seattle is one of them. Marzolf is a long time party activist from the 37th Legislative District, and to show his displeasure with the Paulites he made a bright green button that says, "I am embarrassed there are 4 Ron Paul delegates in my delegation."

For starters he disapproves with Paul's supporters' failure to cooperate with the will of the party.

"I think it is ridiculous," he said of Paul's rally in Minneapolis. "It is time for him to close down his campaign completely and get behind our nominee if he is a real Republican, which I am seriously in question about."

Marzolf scoffed at the notion that Paul's rally was comparable to the Democrats' decision to allow floor votes for Hillary Clinton at their convention last week.

"She had 1100 delegates and he has 88," Marzolf said. "It's a big difference."

There is also the factor hard feelings from the caucuses and conventions earlier this year. Marzolf recalls Paul supporters trying to take over caucuses and misrepresent themselves during delegate elections, and thinks that the RNC should be a bonus for those who have worked hard on behalf of Republicans, not just a chance to speak up for a cause.

"There are very few rewards you get in politics and one of them is to be able to go to the national convention," Marzolf said. "And for people to walk in who have never done a bit of work for any of our candidates and never done anything for the party and never been active just come in and say , ‘we want to go to the national convention because we do,' it doesn't work that way."

Sexy Prom Dress Prom night is


Sexy Prom Dress
Prom night is the occasion most teenagers look forward to. Prom marks the end of one phase of life and the beginning of another. It is the night of glamour as it is the last formal
occasion celebrated in high school and it is to be remembered and cherished. This is the reason why dressing up is so important.
Planning for the prom starts weeks in advance with a search for the dress, taking into account material, color and of course, the shoes. These days, it is not enough to be just beautiful. The final effect has to be as stunning and even as sexy as possible. The most popular sexy prom dresses are satin, sequined, vintage and the little black Prom Dresses as well as the hanky hem, the short and spicy prom dress and the classic Cinderella ball gown.
For a sexy prom dress, it is very important to determine the exact kind of dress that would suit you. The dress may look great on a model but it is necessary that it looks great on you too. To that end, take accurate hip, waist and bust measurements. Next, determine the kind of body you have-an A or H type, round or hourglass body-before you ship for a dress to die for.The Prom Dress can be sexier when it's the right color. Dark muted colors like deep gray, wine, forest green, burgundy, midnight blue and cocoa flatter a fuller figure while neutral colors like silver, black, gray, beige, gold and taupe give a longer, leaner look. Long straight cuts and vertical patterns also make the wearer look slim and sexy.
A professional would be able to help design the sexiest dress. There are several online outlets that sell beautiful Prom Dresses. These websites also provide information about choosing the right kind of Prom Dress and also help to design one. These include dresses from popular designers like Jovani, Riva, Alyce, Mori Lee, Cassandra, Je Matadi, Tiffany and Celebrity.
