Hmmm....HI!
Hi! My name is Heather and I go by Heather. I've been roleplaying for about two years now, but recently not as much. So I decided it may be fun to join this! When it comes to RPing, I like romance (Only if girlxgirl is allowed) and drama, and other fluffy topics. But I also love fantacy and sci-fi. It just can't be too out there.

Santorum challenges Romney in Michigan speech

DETROIT (AP) ? An aggressive Rick Santorum went after Mitt Romney on multiple fronts Thursday, challenging the Republican front-runner's economic policies, values and consistency in the city of his birth.
Santorum criticized his rival's record on federal bailouts in particular, although both men opposed the government's decision to rescue the auto industry.
"Gov. Romney supported the bailout of Wall Street and decided not to support the bailout of Detroit. My feeling was that the government should not be involved in bailouts period," Santorum said in an address to the Detroit Economic Club, just 23 miles from where Romney went to high school. "I think that's a much more consistent position."
Santorum spoke as Romney campaigned elsewhere in Michigan, ignoring Santorum and two other rivals for the GOP presidential nomination altogether while focusing his criticism on President Barack Obama.
Santorum, who has surged in state and national polls, is showing greater confidence in what should be safe territory for the longtime GOP front-runner. Romney not only grew up in Michigan, he is the son of a former governor. His family members also have been deeply involved in the state's politics for decades.
Despite those inherent advantages, Santorum vowed earlier in the week to "plant our flag" in Michigan, where the presidential primary is Feb. 28. He began to make good on that promise Thursday.
Known for staunch socially conservative views, Santorum outlined an economic policy with a heavy emphasis on family values. He supports additional tax breaks to encourage charitable donations to churches, for example.
"We certainly won't be able to have limited government, lower taxes, if the family continues to disintegrate," he said.
Santorum also linked Obama and Romney, suggesting neither wants to lead the entire country as he would.
"We have a president who says he supports occupiers who divide America between 99 and 1. We have another candidate in this race who suggested that he didn't care about the very poor," Santorum said of Romney. "How about a candidate who cares about 100 percent?"
And while he said he supports economic opportunity for all, Santorum said income inequality is good.
"Why? Because people rise to different levels of success based on what they contribute to society and to the marketplace and that's as it should be," he said.
Santorum also reiterated his "Made in America" plan to eliminate a 35 percent corporate income tax on manufacturing to help rebuild the industry. He also wants to increase a tax credit for research and development, from 14 percent to 20 percent, to help create high-tech jobs.
Santorum spoke hours after he released tax returns showing his average income exceeded $990,000 in recent years. He paid a considerably higher tax rate than Romney, whose income largely comes from interest on investments.
"Look, I do my own taxes. Heck, Romney paid half the tax rate I did, so obviously he doesn't do his own taxes," Santorum said. "Maybe I should hire an accountant in the future."
Santorum sought earlier this week to minimize expectations for winning Michigan, but he hopes to score a victory that could be a huge embarrassment for Romney. The former Massachusetts governor has struggled to persuade his party's most conservative segments to embrace him.
Despite the challenge from Santorum, Romney campaigned Thursday using a formula that served him well in Iowa and Florida: staying positive while using TV attack ads to undermine his chief opponent.
Romney did not mention Santorum ? or Newt Gingrich or Ron Paul ? in two campaign stops in Michigan. At a business round-table at a steel galvanizing plant in Monroe and in an address to a Chamber of Commerce in suburban Detroit, Romney focused almost entirely on business and the economy. He repeated his calls for lower corporate tax rates and less regulation, and gave Obama no credit for the slightly improving economic picture.
Obama "has taken actions which have made it harder for our economy to recover," Romney told the chamber gathering.
Meanwhile, Romney and his allies are vastly outspending Santorum on Michigan's airwaves, including with ads attacking the former Pennsylvania senator for voting to increase the federal debt ceiling. Local Romney supporters also held a conference before Santorum's speech to criticize his support in Congress for pork-barrel spending.
The underfunded Santorum defended himself, saying during his speech that he was "the most conservative senator by far based on the state I represented and the spending record I had."
Though unable to match Romney on the air in Michigan, Santorum is airing one ad featuring a gun-toting Romney impersonator shooting mud at a cardboard cutout of Santorum. An announcer says Romney's "negative attack machine" is on "full throttle" and accuses Romney and groups that support him of "brutally attacking fellow Republicans."

New Global Deal On Climate Change
Politico:
Those concerned about climate change and greenhouse gas pollution have been justifiably frustrated in the last few years. Despite some significant moves by the Obama administration -- particularly improving vehicle efficiency and creating incentives for significant investment in wind and solar power -- national action has been ground down by partisanship fueled by climate skepticism.

Ecuador defamation case in final hearing (AP)
QUITO, Ecuador ? Ecuador's highest court on Wednesday heard the final appeal in a criminal libel case filed by President Rafael Correa in which three executives and a columnist of the opposition newspaper El Universo were each sentenced to three years in prison.
The defendants were also appealing awards totaling $42 million that they said represented an effort by Correa to bankrupt the paper.
Two of them, Nicolas and Cesar Perez, said from Miami that they fled there fearing for their personal safety.
The columnist, Emilio Palacio, announced last week he is seeking political asylum in the United States. He has called the trial a farce and suggested Correa had unduly influenced the judiciary to get the desired verdict.
Rights groups have decried the case as part of a concerted campaign by Correa to stifle free speech and silence his critics.
Correa attended Wednesday's hearing, which lasted 13 1/2 hours before the three judges began deliberations. It was not clear when they might issue a verdict.
In a news conference he held Wednesday inside the courtroom, Correa called the case "a trial by fire for the justice system" and suggested it could set a regional precedent. Correa's leftist allies in Latin America, chiefly President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, have also often wrestled with aggressive opposition media.
Corea also called for his followers outside to remain vigilant so that "definitive justice is done today." With a 70 percent approval rating, Correa is among Latin America's most popular leaders thanks in part to an array of state-funded programs that have brought stability to a traditionally unruly nation.
Correa's backers scuffled with defenders of El Universo outside the courthouse on Wednesday morning.
The president's supporters struck at least three journalists and burned issues of El Universo and another newspaper, El Comercio.
Correa says he is only defending himself against false accusations in a column by Palacio published by El Universo.
The column repeatedly referred to Correa as "the Dictator" and said he "ordered discretionary fire ? without prior notification ? against a hospital full of civilians and innocent people" during a Sept. 30, 2010, police revolt over government plans to cut police benefits that claimed at least five lives.
The press freedom director of the Inter-American Press Association, Ricardo Trotti, said Wednesday at Miami at a news conference with Nicolas and Cesar Perez that the sentence appealed was "completely repressive and disproportionate."
The Perezes, brothers who are the paper's deputy director and manager of new media, said they were considering seeking political asylum in the United States but had not yet decided.
Carlos Perez, a third brother who is El Universo's director, remained in Ecuador, they said.
The El Universo directors and columnist are not the only journalists Correa has attacked in the courts.
Last week, a judge ordered two journalists to pay $1 million each to the president or offending Correa's "honor" and "professional prestige" by claiming he was aware that his older brother had some $600 million in government countracts, primarily for road construction.
Correa has also succeeded in winning through a ballot question last year a constitutional provision restricting news media ownership and creating a government oversight panel that would regulate news media content for "excesses."
And he further angered press freedom advocates by winning congressional approval of a law that bars the news media from broadcasting or publishing any material that could influence opinions about candidates or proposals during election campaigns.

Russian foreign minister to hold Syria talks (AP)
WASSENAAR, Netherlands ? Russia's foreign minister says he will meet his French counterpart in Vienna on Thursday and discuss a plan to rework a U.N. Security Council resolution that aims to end violence in Syria.
Sergey Lavrov said Wednesday he could not comment on the French plan without having seen the language of the proposed resolution.
French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said earlier Wednesday that his country is trying to rework the resolution ? with a focus on overcoming Russian resistance.
After a meeting with Dutch Foreign Minister Uri Rosenthal, Lavrov said Russia would not support any U.N. resolution "that could legitimize regime change."
He also welcomed the announcement by embattled Syrian President Bashar Assad that he had ordered a Feb. 26 referendum on a new constitution that would open the way to political parties other than the ruling Baath Party.
"A new constitution to end one-party rule in Syria is a step forward," Lavrov said. "It is coming late unfortunately but better late than never."
Speaking on France-Info radio, Juppe also reiterated France's hope that the council will reconsider creation of "humanitarian corridors" that would allow aid groups to reach Syrian areas that are facing "absolutely scandalous massacres."
Juppe said a planned U.N. General Assembly vote Thursday on Syria's bloodshed could have symbolic importance.
Russia and China both vetoed a Security Council resolution brought by the Arab League earlier this month aimed at halting Syria's violence ? moves that angered many Western powers and Arab states.
Lavrov said if a new resolution was aimed at ending violence, "everything is possible."
However, he underscored Russia's position that any demand on the Assad regime to withdraw forces from cities torn apart by fierce battles must be matched by demands for opposition fighters to do the same.
"We all must act in sync and lean on all Syrian parties to stop fighting and to sit down and negotiate," Lavrov told reporters at a castle in this wealthy village outside The Hague.
