War-Funding Puzzle Stumps Dems
by David Rogers WASHINGTON – House Democratic support for the war in Afghanistan has eroded to a point where President Barack Obama is now so reliant on Republican votes that he’s backtracking from his own party’s efforts to add new education funding to avert teacher layoffs. read more

Love is wonderful, but there’s no doubt that relationships take work. With celebrities making and breaking up every hour and even politicians like Al Gore admitting they struggle with marriage, it’s wonderful to celebrate those who still are starry-eyed for each other.
If you know a special couple who is about to celebrate an anniversary, why not throw an incredible shindig for them? The event is bound to please the pair more than you can imagine.
For starters, try purchasing some marvelous anniversary decorations. These should be tailored to the twosome’s taste, but you can inject your own personality and style as well.
Of course, make sure you buy a bunch of streamers, banners and balloons. When deciding on colors, feel free to use the couple’s favorites. If the two hues clash with one another, always remember that the colors of love – such as white and red, or pink and silver – will look perfect.
To kick things up a notch, why not do some digging and try and locate a number of old photos of the darling duo? If you can find images from every decade they have been together, try making an impromptu trip out to Kinko’s, enlarging them, and using them as centerpieces. Your lovebirds are bound to go crazy for the idea.
Next, try to find a bunch of anniversary party supplies. These are necessary items, but finding some with special details will turn your soiree into something unforgettable.
For starters, you’re going to need a bunch of paper cups, plates and napkins. Unless you want to be stationed at the kitchen sink doing dishes for hours after guests leave, these are absolutely necessary.
Still, why not try to find some with cute phrases on them? Silverware that says “Congratulations!” or “Love is Eternal” will put a smile on your guests of honor’s faces. If you want to go a simpler route, try finding some that look like the fine china they received at their wedding.
If the couple you’re celebrating has been together for more than two decades, you’re really going to want to pay special attention to the details. Luckily, 25th anniversary party ideas are easy to come by.
For instance, when purchasing party supplies, make sure this special number is adorned all over them. Balloons and streamers that boast this important digit should be placed all around the room.
And, if your special pair has been together for five full decades, you’re in luck. In fact, 50th anniversary party ideas are plentiful. This is a couple’s golden anniversary, so make sure to use this color generously around the event space.
A couple who has been together for some time is certainly lucky, but they also deserve a pat on the back for sticking together through the good times and bad. Remember, coordinating a memorable anniversary party is bound to create memories that they can continue to share with one another.
