Due to time constraints, it may be a while before I get back to you.
Please bear with me.

If you are aware of any former Iowa legislators who are in the news,
let me know and I'll try to get their Wiki-article going.

It goes without saying, but an encyclopedic article or discussion can not substitute for a meeting with an attorney who is familiar with the specific facts of your case and who is familiar with the national, state/provincial, and local laws and regulations.

Blackout

I would very much like to join you in blacking out my userpage and talk page. How would I go about doing that? Pascal (talk) 12:09, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You can do so by adding the following to the top of the area to be blacked out:

<div style="background:#000000; border:4px solid #000000; width:95%; margin:0px auto 0px auto; padding:6px; font-size:.9em; {{round corners}}" id="mainframe"> {|style="background:none; border:0; width:100%;" cellpadding="2px" |- |<div style="background: #FFFFFF; border:4px solid #000000; padding:20px; margin:0px 0px 4px 0px; text-align:center; {{round corners}}"><center>{{User:Philosopher/Header}}</center></div>

and

|} </div>

to the bottom of the area to be blacked out. Be aware, however, that I will be restoring the old content of my User:Philosopher/Header shortly after the "official" blackout ends, so you may wish to subst: it. --Philosopher ^{Let us reason together.} via alternate account 12:49, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
