Remembering Paul Wellstone

It was five years ago today when the airplane carrying Paul Wellstone, his wife Sheila, their daughter Marcia, two campaign staffers and the two pilots, crashed near Eveleth Minnesota. It's one of the few moments in my life I remember exactly where I was when I heard the news.
I was still in College at the University of Nebraska in my dorm room when my mother called. She, audibly upset, told me that the plane carrying Senator Wellstone has crashed.
It felt like a personal loss. On my desk laid my absentee ballot, with Paul's name on it.
I never got to meet the Senator, my mother had on a couple of occasions. She was always impressed that he always remembered her name, a trait many others had noticed in the Senator. Senator Wellstone was genuinely interested in the people he met and they made an impression upon him.
Paul made a lasting impression on many as well. His progressive populism continues to drive many activists, and is continued in the organization founded by his sons, Wellstone Action.
Today, take a moment, as I do, to remember Senator Wellstone as we continue to working for progressive change.
"Politics is not about power. Politics is not about money. Politics is not about winning for the sake of winning. Politics is about the improvement of people's lives." - Sen. Paul Wellstone

【丰胸】虽然,这些药物对于乳房而言粉嫩公主,能够起到一定的丰胸效果,可朋友们这些药物的后遗症,也会在我们服完后慢慢显现出来丰胸产品,譬如:机体中的雌激素水平被打破了,就容易导致我们的月经变得不正常丰胸食物,从而使得我们的腰跟着变得圆嘟嘟,而严重的话还可能会导致我们的子宫出血,肝脏受损丰胸效果,所以说若是采用药物来进行丰胸,大家还是小心谨慎些为好。
