Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Much of IT terminology is often misused and misapplied. Modernization and transformation are two such terms. They are often used interchangeably even though they mean different things and have very different connotations. Indeed, it is somewhat safe to assume that in IT any transformative effort is likely to also have a modernizing effect, and thus, we can see these as levels of improvement efforts. However, many businesses are being led to believe if they don't transform now they risk becoming ...

This invention relates to the field of therapeutic devices for improving the mobility and strength of patients. In particular, this invention relates to a variable impact therapy system in which various exercises involving virtually the entire body can be performed.
Among the shortcomings of existing exercise systems is the inability of these systems to easily accommodate persons of different weight. In addition, they either cannot be adjusted to prevent substantial impact of the exerciser on the floor or can be adjusted only with considerable difficulty.
In U.S. Pat. No. 5,221,241, this inventor disclosed a gymnastic training device having adjustably resilient assemblies for supporting a gymnast in a Pond training belt. The shock absorber elements of that device are adjustable so that the athlete experiences no more than 15 to 20 pounds of impact on the supporting surface. However, this concept of variable impact or adjustable unweighting has not heretofore been effectively adapted to a system for therapeutic exercise.
During exercise, especially for rehabilitation from an injury or illness, it is important that the resistance encountered be adjustable, for the comfort and safety of the patient, as well as the progression of therapy. Existing rehabilitative devices typically do not provide easily adjustable resistance during exercise. Furthermore, many of the existing devices act only on certain muscle groups or limbs of the patient. Many existing rehabilitative exercise systems require that the patient be closely monitored by a care provider or medical personnel during exercise because the system offers little protection against the patient falling and/or injuring themselves. Patients with neuromuscular conditions can be seriously injured if they collapse while using existing exercise devices. Sometimes the patients who need rehabilitative exercise the most are those in wheelchairs. Existing exercise systems do not easily accommodate wheelchairs or similar devices.
It is therefore a principal object of this invention to provide an exercise system which can be easily adapted to persons of different weight, strength, and mobility.
A further object of this invention is to provide an exercise device which uses resilient supporting means for the exercises which can be easily adjusted to accommodate the specific weight of the exerciser and to regulate the degree of impact that the exerciser has with a supporting surface.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a exercise device which can be adjusted to prevent the user from engaging the floor while in a substantial horizontal position.
Another object of this invention to provide an adjustable resistance therapy system for rehabilitation, training, and exercise.
Another object of this invention is to provide a therapy system which is readily adaptable for use by people with disabilities, limited mobility, or a wheelchair.
A further object of this invention is to provide a therapy system which can be safely used by the patient with minimal supervision from the care provider or medical personnel.
A further object of this invention is to provide a variable resistance therapy system wherein the resistance applied is easily set and measured.
A still further object of this invention is to provide an exercise device having adjustably inclineable extensions at the ends of its base whereon a mat is laid to form a padded inclined exercise surface.
A further object of this invention is to provide an exercise device with one or more vertically adjustable horizontal guide bars for use during exercise.
A further object of this invention is to provide a flexible exercise device which uses both fixed and slidably adjustable eyelets to suspend a plurality of different pieces of exercise equipment, including but not limited to static rings, a trapeze bar, handles and the like.
A further object of this invention is to provide a device for adjustable resistance therapy which is durable in manufacture and easy to assemble.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a exercise device which can be utilized in either a self-standing format, or adapted to the ceiling structure of a building.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a therapy system which suspends the patient at adjustable heights from the floor within the device.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a therapy system which is flexible and can be used for entertainment or exercise purposes.
These and other objects will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
The variable impact therapy system of this invention is centered about a self-standing frame for hanging exercise equipment. The basic frame has a base with front and rear sides and opposite ends for resting on a floor. Inclineable extensions can also be provided on the ends. Crossing first and second overhead supports have generally horizontal bars connecting a pair of vertical legs which are attached to the base sides in the case of the first support and the base ends in the case of the second support.
One or more horizontal guide bars demountably attach to the frame between cross members which are height adjustably mounted on the legs of the first overhead support. Therefore, each guide bar extends between the sides of the frame and can be adjusted to a variety of vertical positions within the frame. The distance of each guide bar from the first overhead support is also adjustable. Each guide bar is attached to a tubular slide which slides over an end of the cross member and can be selectively secured by a removable pin to any one of a plurality of horizontally spaced apart mounting holes in the cross member. The exerciser may perform exercises on or against the guide bar(s). The guide bar is helpful as a means for steadying the exerciser.
Fixed and slidably adjustable types of anchors are disposed along the supports for pivotally hanging exercise equipment on the frame. Various conventional exercise equipment, including but not limited to a Pond belt, rings, handles, and trapeze bars can thereby be anchored or hung on the frame. Adjustable resilience can be provided by using shock absorber elements which include resilient cord assemblies. The density of stretch for these assemblies is known to be adjustable by adding or removing bungy cords. By using adjustable anchors to mount the resilient cord assemblies to the frame, the length of stretch of the assemblies is variable, as well. Thus, an extremely flexible exercise system is provided in the present invention.
Another dimension of adjustability is achieved when pulleys are attached to the anchors on the longitudinal overhead support. A cable runs through the pulleys and has its ends connected to the sides of a Pond belt via opposing resilient cord assemblies. A loop in the cable can be drawn downwardly by a hoist on the frame. This arrangement provides another opportunity to adjust the resistance encountered during exercise. The impact of the exerciser on the floor or a pad thereover can be varied. In other words, the exerciser can be effectively unweighted.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged view showing the horizontal guide bars adjustably and removably mounted to the frame.
FIG. 3 is a front view of the self-standing frame of this invention.
FIG. 4 is a side elevation view of the self-standing frame of this invention.
FIG. 5 is a front view of the frame of this invention showing the floor mat and Pond belt.
FIG. 6 is a side elevation view of the therapy system of this invention showing the Pond belt suspended by a hoist and cables extending through four pulleys and including overhead rings fixed on the frame.
FIG. 7 is a front view of the therapy system of this invention showing four point suspension of the exerciser in the belt.
FIG. 8 is a front view of the therapy system of this invention showing rings adjustably attached to the frame.
FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing six point suspension of the exerciser in the belt.
FIG. 10 is a front view of the system of this invention showing rings adjustably and resiliently attached to the frame.
The variable impact therapy system 10 of this invention is adapted for use by persons exercising for rehabilitational, training, or other purposes. It is adapted for therapeutic use by patients who are recovering from injuries including but not limited to those effecting the bones, muscles, nerves, or tendons.
In FIG. 1, one of the preferred embodiments of this invention has a unique self-standing frame 14 which is adapted to rest on floor 12. Preferably, frame 14 has a generally rectangular-shaped base 16 formed of rigid tubular material. Base 16 includes front and rear sides 18, 20 and opposite ends 22 and 24 for resting on the floor. Front and rear sides 18, 20 have central portions which are raised off of floor 12 to provide clearance for reasons to be described later.
Frame 14 also includes first and second overhead support members 26 and 28. First overhead support 26 comprises vertical legs 30 and 32 which are attached to the front 18 and rear 20 sides of base 16 respectively. Vertical legs 30 and 32 are interconnected by a generally horizontally member 34. Furthermore, it is preferable that a pair of opposing conventional guide wires 36 adjustably connect the outer ends of front 18 and rear 20 with the upper portion of legs 30 and 32 to keep first overhead support 26 perpendicular to base 16.
Second overhead support 28 is secured to base 16 by arms 38 which are attached midway along ends 22 and 24. Second overhead support 28 has a pair of vertical legs 40 and 42 and a generally horizontal member 44 extending therebetween. Horizontal member 44 traverses member 34 of first overhead support member 26. It is contemplated that vertical legs 30 and 32 could be of a telescoping or end-fitting tubular construction to facilitate assembly, breakdown, and transport.
FIG. 1 also shows ends 22 and 24 of base 16 to have pivotally attached and adjustably inclineable extensions 46 and 48. The distal ends of extensions 46 and 48 are secured to vertical legs 40 and 42 by any conventional vertically adjustable means. For example, tongue 47 has a hole 45 adapted to slidably receive one of the vertical legs 40 or 42 and is attached to the remote end of the respective extension 46 or 48. A suitable stop means, such as a removable T-handle pin 49, is inserted into one of a plurality of vertically spaced apart holes 51 at the lower end of legs 40 or 42 to set the angle of inclination for extensions 46 and 48 respectively. As shown in FIG. 7, this feature is particularly useful when a padded mat 50 is placed over base 16 because the ends of mat 50 can thereby be raised to provide a soft inclined surface for exercise and protection.
Referring again to FIG. 1, a pair of generally parallel and horizontal guide bars 52 are preferably detachably mounted along the ends of cross members 54 and 56. It is also contemplated that a single guide bar 52 can be used alone at either end of the cross members. Cross members 54 and 56 each have a central tubular member 57 which is slidably mounted on the respective vertical legs 30 or 32, as best seen in FIG. 2. Tubular member 57 has a generally horizontal hole 59 extending into its interior. Guide bars(s) 52 can be raised or lowered and secured into position by inserting a pin 58 through hole 59 of member 57 and into one of a plurality of vertically spaced apart holes 60 in legs 30 and 32. Holes 60 span substantially the entire length of vertical legs 30 and 32. Therefore, cross members 54 and 56 can be used to adjust the guide bar(s) 52 attached thereto to a variety of heights from floor 12, as seen in FIG. 1.
The horizontal position of each guide bar 52 is similarly adjustable via a tubular slide 62 having a generally horizontal hole 66 thereinto, as best seen in FIG. 2. Slide 62 slips over either end of cross members 54 or 56. The outer portions of cross members 54 and 56 have a plurality of spaced apart holes 64 therein. Holes 66 and 64 are aligned and a T-handled pin 68 is inserted therethrough to removably secure and position guide bar 52.
In FIGS. 3 and 4, frame 14 has various fixed eyelets 70 and slidably adjustable eyelets 72 disposed as anchoring means along overhead supports 26 and 28. As further described below, these eyelets are adapted to anchor various items, including but not limited to exercise equipment, pulleys, and cables.
As best seen in FIG. 3, adjustable eyelets 72 are slidably and rotatably adjustable. Eyelets 72 include a conventional tubular sleeve 73 having an inner diameter greater than the outer diameter of supports 26 and 28 so as to encircle the respective support. A T-handled clamp screw 75 is provided for securing sleeve 73 in position on support 26 or 28. An eye 77 is conventionally secured to sleeve 73 so that items may be anchored thereto. When tightened, screw 75 engages support 26 or 28 and prevents adjustable eyelet 72 from moving relative to the support.
In FIG. 5, a conventional Pond belt 74 is secured to frame 14 by a pair of adjustably resilient means, such as shock absorber elements 78. Fixed eyelets 70 anchor one end of shock absorber elements 78 to frame 14 near the tops of vertical legs 40 and 42 of the laterally disposed second overhead support 28. Pond belt 74 is normally worn around the waist or torso of the exerciser. Swivels 76 are provided on opposite sides of Pond belt 74 and are adapted to rotate about a horizontal axis. The other end of each shock absorber element 78 is secured to the respective swivel 76 on Pond belt 74.
The shock absorber elements 78 themselves are conventional and are not per se the subject of this invention. However when used in the manner just described, shock absorber elements 78 provide an adjustably resilient means for suspending an exerciser and varying the exerciser's impact with an exercise surface.
Elements 78 are comprised of upper and lower discs which have a centrally protruding eyelet. Each disc has a plurality of radial slits which are adapted to receive compressively the end portions of hollow resilient cords, such as those manufactured under the trademark BUNGEE. The cords each have enlarged diameter upper and lower ends which are created by forcibly inserting short lengths of dowels into the end of the hollow cords. The enlarged diameter upper and lower ends of the cords are sufficiently great to prevent them from longitudinally slipping through the radial slits. A conventional band clamp encircles the perimeter of each of the discs and is tightened on the periphery thereof. The band clamps prevent the cords from moving laterally out of the radial slits.
The resiliency of shock absorber elements 78 can be selectively adjusted by removing the band clamps from the disc, and adding or removing cords as the situation may require. If the exerciser is a heavy adult, all the cords may be used. If the exerciser is a lighter weight child, for example, some of the cords can be removed.
A padded floor mat 50, preferably removable, covers base 16 of frame 14 in FIG. 5. Extensions 46 and 48 are tilted upwardly from base 16 as to provide a padded inclined surface at either end. Shock absorber elements 78 effectively unweight the exerciser so that they may traverse the frame and/or the mat to accomplish various exercises. The impact of the exerciser on mat 50 can be varied to match the needs and capabilities of the individual exerciser. Guide bars 52 can be utilized by the exerciser for additional support or to perform exercises thereon. The height of guide bars 52 can be adjusted to fit the needs of the particular patient and the therapeutic goals.
Another configuration for exercise utilizing this invention is shown in FIG. 7. Four shock absorber elements 78 are arranged into opposing upper and lower pairs. Each shock absorber element 78 has one end attached to a swivel 76 disposed on either side of the Pond belt 74. The other end of each upper shock absorber element 78 is anchored to a fixed eyelet 70 that is disposed near the top of vertical legs 40 and 42 respectively. The other end of each lower shock absorber element 78 is secured by a slidably adjustable eyelet 72 to the lower portion of respective legs 40 and 42. Thus, the exerciser is suspended from the four corners of second overhead support 28.
It should be apparent that one can adjust the effective weight of the exerciser and the resistance encountered during exercise by changing the number of resilient cords utilized in the shock absorber elements 78. However, further adjustability is achieved by changing the positions of the distal ends of the lower shock absorber elements 78. Changing the anchored position effectively changes the length of the shock absorber element and thereby the forces on the exerciser. Slidably adjustable eyelets 72 allow the lower shock absorber elements 78 to be positioned anywhere along vertical legs 40 and 42, so long as they do not interfere with the adjustment of base extensions 46 and 48. Therefore, the exerciser can be very accurately positioned within frame 14 and unweighted as desired. Any number of conventional exercises may be performed in this position. If desired, the guide bars 52 may be removed or they may be left in place as shown in FIG. 7. Preferably, a padded mat 50 is also provided under the exerciser.
A configuration for exercising with static rings can also be provided with this invention, as seen in FIG. 8. Preferably, two rings 90 each having a web strap 92 attached thereto are adjustably hung from support 28 by respective cables 94. One end of cable 94 is attached to a slidably adjustable eyelet 72 mounted on vertical leg 40 or 42. Eyelet 72 is positionable anywhere along vertical leg, so long as it does not interfere with the inclineable extensions 46 and 48. Furthermore, cable 94 passes through a second slidably adjustable eyelet 72 mounted overhead on horizontal member 44. With the slidably adjustable eyelets shown, the vertical and horizontal position of ring 90 can be easily adjusted. The effective angle of pull on the ring is also affected.
FIG. 8 further illustrates a configuration in which mat 50 has been removed and base extensions 46 and 48 have been lowered to be roughly level with the floor 12. Therefore, a wheelchair patient can wheel themselves into frame 14 to use hanging exercise equipment such as rings 90, a trapeze bar, or handles to improve their upper body strength. In this situation, Pond belt 74 is not required because the adjustability of the hanging exercise equipment allows the patient to remain seated in their wheelchair.
Another configuration for exercise equipment according to this invention is shown in FIG. 9. This configuration is similar to that shown in FIG. 7 except that a pair of shock absorber elements 78 are also anchored to first overhead support 26 and attached to swivels 76 at the front and rear of Pond belt 74. Six-way control of movement of the exerciser in belt 74 is thereby obtained.
In FIG. 6, an embodiment of this invention which results in even greater adjustability in exercise resistance is shown. Above a padded mat 50, a pair of lower pulleys 82 are disposed on first overhead support 26 near the tops of vertical legs 30 and 32, and are preferably anchored thereto by fixed eyelet 70. At least one elevated pulley 86 is similarly secured by fixed eyelet 70 to horizontal member 34 of support 26. A first cable 80 having two ends has one end attached to the upper end of the shock absorber element 78 located on the right and another end attached to the upper end of the shock absorber element 78 located on the left. First cable 80 extends from the right shock absorber element 78 through pulleys 82 and 86 on the right, then through pulleys 86 and 82 on the left. A loop 96 of first cable 80 hangs downwardly from pulley 82 on the left to engage pulley 98. Finally, the first cable 80 returns upwardly through pulley 82 and is attached to the left shock absorber element 78. The lower end of pulley 98 is conventional secured to a webbed band 100 which extends under the raised central portion of base 16. The free end of webbed band with respect to the pulley 98 is connected to a conventional ratchet crank hoist 88. Hoist 88 is mounted on the outside of support 26 to avoid interfering with slidably adjustable eyelets 72 or the exercise taking place within frame 14. Conventional hoist 88 may be operated by hand or with a motorized wrench or other suitable means. With the above-described structure, another means of adjustably unweighting the exerciser is provided to augment the adjustability of shock absorber elements 78. The position of the exerciser and thereby their impact on the mat 50 can be adjusted. Adjustable resistance can also be applied to further the therapeutic value of staticly hung conventional exercise equipment, such as the rings shown.
In FIG. 10, an adjustably resilient set of dynamic rings 90 are provided. The resilience is provided by a pair of shock absorber elements 78 which are secured just above inclineable extensions 46 and 48 by a adjustable eyelet 72. One end of a cable 104 is attached to the upper end of shock absorber element 78. The other end of cable 104 is attached to adjustable eyelet 72 on leg 40 or 42 above the shock absorber element 78. Cable 104 passes from shock absorber element 78 through a laterally disposed pulley 82 fixed by eyelet 70 on leg 40 or 42, then through an elevated pulley 86. Elevated pulley 86 is attached to horizontal member 44 of second overhead support 28, by adjustable eyelet 72. Finally, cable 104 loops through web strap 92 from which a ring 90 is suspended. Cable 104 returns upwardly back through pulley 86 and then extends downwardly to its connection with adjustable eyelet 72 mounted on vertical leg 40 or 42 of second overhead support 28 above the shock absorber element 78. Thus, the extent to which the rings hang down and the effective angle of pull for the exerciser adjusted by the adjustable eyelets located laterally and overhead. It is contemplated that other forms of exercise equipment could be similarly attached to the system. For example a trapeze bar or handles might be suspended in this manner.
Whereas the invention has been shown and described in connection with the preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood that many modifications, substitutions, and additions may be made which are within the intended broad scope of the following claims. From the foregoing, it can be seen that the present invention accomplishes at least all of the stated objectives.

In the last few years, this site has distanced itself from the United States; basically, we cover NASL and MLS and the other leagues we share with Americans — when the stories relate to a Canadian audience.
But, today, I'm breaking that rule. Because I'm gonna wade into the world of ethics, sports journalism and where we are today.
As you may have heard, MLS side Real Salt Lake made the decision this past weekend to strip Salt Lake Tribune columnist Gordon Monson of his credentials. Monson has been critical of the team's ownership in past columns (an example can be found HERE). The paper responded by not sending staff to cover this past weekend's RSL match, choosing to write a reduced game report straight off a television broadcast.
In a statement, Andy Carroll, RSL's chief business officer, said that the club felt that Monson could write his columns without having to go to the stadium because "he clearly needs no semblance of reportage or journalistic integrity upon which to arrive and share his view." Carroll then went on to state that it represented a conflict of interest for Monson to cover RSL because he did radio work with a relative of the team's former owner and, this is key here, because he gets paid by what Carroll called a "competing professional team in the marketplace," the NBA's Utah Jazz.
Now, wait a second here. It is a conflict for someone to cover an MLS team but also be involved in the NBA? If that's the case — and if MLS approves this message — by that logic, should it not also be a conflict for an MLS owner to also have a stake or fully own an NBA team? Since Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment owns the Raptors, TFC, the Maple Leafs and the Marlies, don't they in some way aid and abet the competitors in RSL's coveted marketplace? Following Carroll's logic, should MLSE be allowed to own an NBA team and an MLS team?
What about the Vancouver Whitecaps and the expansion LAFC? Don't they both have owners who earned their money thanks to lucrative NBA careers?
As well, I think it needs to be stated that the reason MLS exists is because, in the 1990s, a lot of owners who made their money in the NFL — another competing league — decided to invest their money in soccer.

Kathleen Norris was born in Washington, D.C., and raised in Hawaii. After attending Bennington College in Vermont, Norris moved to New York, where she worked for the American Academy of Poets. She was quickly immersed in the vibrant, often rowdy, artistic world of New York city in the early 1970's. Due to her growing interest in spirituality, Norris left New York for the peace of Lemmon, South Dakota, where she still lives. In both her poetry and her best-selling nonfiction work, Kathleen Norris frequently combines elements of the secular and religious worlds.

"The people I have met through Poetry Out Loud are incredibly welcoming, kind, and supportive. Everyone's main motive truly is to share and celebrate poetry. Poetry Out Loud taught me that, however paradoxical it may seem, competitions do not always have to be purely competitive. They can be celebratory and supportive and fun as well."

Product Description
From the Back Cover
Every page sparkles with sharp insight and keen observation. Mistakes were madebut not in this book! Daniel Gilbert, author of Stumbling on Happiness Why do people dodge responsibility when things fall apart? Why the parade of public figures unable to own up when they screw up? Why the endless marital quarrels over who is right? Why can we see hypocrisy in others but not in ourselves? Are we all liars? Or do we really believe the stories we tell? Backed by years of research and delivered in lively, energetic prose, Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me) offers a fascinating explanation of self-deceptionhow it works, the harm it can cause, and how we can overcome it. "Hypocrisy is hardest to see in oneself. Tavris and Aronson, both social psychologists, demonstrate the whys and hows of this maxim by blending research with anecdotal evidence from celebrities, presidents, and CEOs."--Psychology Today "Thanks, in part, to the scientific evidence it provides and the charm of its down-to-earth, commonsensical tone, Mistakes Were Made is convincing. Reading it, we recognize the behavior of our leaders, our loved ones, andif we're honestourselves, and some of the more perplexing mysteries of human nature begin to seem a little clearer."Francine Prose, O, The Oprah Magazine CAROL TAVRIS is a social psychologist and author of Anger and The Mismeasure of Woman. She has written for the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, Scientific American, and many other publications. She lives in Los Angeles. ELLIOT ARONSON is a social psychologist and author of The Social Animal. The recipient of many awards for teaching, scientific research, writing, and contributions to society, he is a professor emeritus at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Mistakes Were Made provides some wonderful insight into how the human mind works -- and how it often fails to work. No system is perfect, and the human mind, for all its abilities, is certainly no exception to that rule. Yet, by understanding the way the mind works, and the mistakes we are prone to make, we can learn to reduce those mistakes and improve ourselves. Everyone should read this book.
In particular, the authors posit that most problems arise when we make a series of incremental self-justifications. This way, it's nearly impossible to know (at the time) when we've passed the point of justifiable belief (the belief can be factual but is more often moral or ethical). For instance, if a pharmaceutical company outright approached a doctor and asked him/her to preferentially prescribe their new drug in exchange for payment, the doctor would probably refuse on ethical grounds. But say the pharmaceutical company first hires the doctor to give a community lecture on depression and mental health—this seems acceptable. Next, they hire the doctor to give a community lecture on anti-depressants—well, this isn't so ethically different from the last lecture, the doctor thinks. Finally, the pharmaceutical company hires the doctor to give a lecture on *their* new antidepressant. The doctor compares the ethics of this new prospect with the last lecture he/she gave, rationalizes it as only a small, incremental change, and proceeds to shill for the compnay's new drug in exchange for payment. Somewhere along the line we would say an ethical line was crossed, but for the doctor, every step has been incremental and no decision stands out as that much worse than the last. A similar example comes from the Milgram experiment.Read more ›
Self justification is a scary thing we do to preserve our ego and even ourselves. It's more powerful than a lie and it is absolutely more dangerous than a lie because we're not conscious that we're doing it.
This is such an excellent book for revealing why we do that as humans, helping you see where you might be hiding the truth from yourself and understanding how it plays into your attempts to influence others. The research covered in this book is great ... not too scientific but detailed enough that you understand what the point is.
For a business person or anyone interested in human psychology, but not wanting a hard read, this book will be highly satisfying for you!
From business to home (there is an entire chapter dedicated to how this plays into marriages) - this book will equip you with useful insights into the human mind and behaviors around mistakes and justifications for them. And you'll be in a better position to learn from your mistakes and help influence others when they are dead wrong too. :)

Heather Cox Richardson: How Republicans Once Championed the Federal Income TaxRoundup: Historians' Take
tags: Republican Party, Civil War, Abraham Lincoln, income tax, Heather Cox Richardson
Heather Cox Richardson is a professor of history at Boston College and the president of the Historical Society. The opinions expressed are her own
The government has the right to "demand" 99 percent of a man's property when the nation needs it.
That was the argument made by a Republican congressman in 1862 to introduce a novel idea: the federal income tax.
The Civil War was then costing the Treasury $2 million a day. To pay for uniforms, guns, food, mules, wagons, bounties and burials, Congress had issued hundreds of millions of dollars of bonds and paper money. But Republicans had a horror of debt and the runaway inflation that paper currency usually caused.
Taxes were the obvious answer. A conservative Republican newspaper declared: "There is not the slightest objection raised in any loyal quarter to as much taxation as may be necessary."...

Unlike the previous reviews I must disagree. I mean, the atmosphere is very relaxed and chill for me. I mean, I go in there every two weeks to get my nails done and I have no complaints. They talk in their language, but why can't they? I mean, they are human too. Everyone talks, so since most people can't understand them they just talk to each other. No harm done. The only thing I wish was different is the seating and waiting area. I wish it was more spacious and that the chairs were more comfortable. They do eat and drink and talk on the phone in front of you, but if you go to a hair dresser or even a barber shop, they do the same thing. It's not like they are servicing you and doing it, they are doing it on their own time. I don't know what all the pressy girls on here is fussing about, but I am from the neighborhood, and Nail Trix is the ONLY nail saloon I go too. Great prices, people, and not to mention they know what kind of movies people like to watch lol :-)

225 N Howard StBaltimore, MD 21201
If you are in a jam and need your nails done, this place is normally open. However, even though I was happy they could take me, I wasn't too pleased with my pedicure.... The woman did a great job in selling me the one with the spa treatments, which was great & felt good, but when I got home I finally saw the horrible job she did painting my toes (it looked like she forgot the top coat, so I had to do that myself and wallah, my nails were shiny.) The gel manicure I got did look great but because of the horrible paint job on the pedicure I don't think I'll be going back unless I'm in another jam.
In from out of town did a web search and found this place on yellowpages.com. WONDERFUL!! Had a mani/pedi and it was reasonably priced and Tammy did a fantastic job!! One of the best mani/pedis I have ever had!! This place is extremely clean and well appointed. I would highly recommend. I just walked in but you can make appointments also. It is in a gated strip mall but they give you a free parking coupon for two hours at the salon when you leave.

As a child, I took great pride in arranging the fruit in the pan. We always made this dessert on the same day of the meal so it would be warm and fresh. A dollop of whipped cream on top was an added treat! View Recipe Gingerbread Gingerbread My grandmother first made this gingerbread over 100 years ago. It was inexpensive, and the ingredients were always on hand. I remember that the kitchen smelled like heaven when Grandmother baked her gingerbread. The only thing better was when she took it out of the oven and served it with a generous topping of fresh whipped cream! —Ellouise Halstead, Union Grove, Wisconsin View Recipe Advertise with us ADVERTISEMENT Ginger Bars Ginger Bars We always had dessert when we visited my grandparents' farm, and this was one of our favorites.

We soon started piling up our own cookies in the shape of this Christmas tree! Before you know it, we had another "Crafting with Taste" project to pass along.

Foundation anyone?
"Spiking" before the Egyptian and Libyan uprisings is nothing impressive, without more information about when it has and hasn't "spiked".
...we will see martial law declared preemptively, military and police forces will start flooding areas before anything can happen, and people who the computer says will be key figures in the revolution will be preemptively jailed and/or executed.
Don't get your hopes up, kids. This isn't the Foundation, and it won't be used to save civilization, it will be used to keep people already in power from even having a chance of losing that power. If you haven't noticed, the folks running the show think the only value of civilization is that it gives them a system within which to gain power and wealth.
But predicting future ones is even more challenging.

The upcoming Leica Monochrome digital rangefinder (with a black and white only sensor) will have a M9-like body. We are not going to see a new M10 camera on May 10 - a completely new M10 will probably be announced in September during Photokina. I am still trying to get a confirmation on whether the new Leica Monochrome will have a LCD screen or not, but the new camera is expected to have very clean/noise free high-ISO capabilities (probably compared to the current M9).

Far out in the ocean, where the water is as blue as the prettiest cornflower, and as clear as crystal, it is very, very deep; so deep, indeed, that no cable could fathom it: many church steeples, piled one upon another, would not reach from the ground beneath to the surface of the water above. There dwell the Sea King and his subjects.
The Sardinians are a sturdy race, but at the same time alert, lively, and brave, even to rashness:;; firm friends but implacable enemies; quick of understanding, of vivacious imagination and passionately fond of poetry, zealous in maintaining their rights and liberty, but loyal and fond of their King and Country.John Smith - A System of Modern Geography: Or, the Natural and Political History of the Present State of the World, Volume 2 - Sherwood Neely and Jones, 1811
"Elohim," the name for the creative power in Genesis, is a female plural, a fact that generations of learned rabbis and Christian theologians have all explained as merely grammatical convention. The King James and most other Bibles translate it as "God," but if you take the grammar literally, it seems to mean "goddesses."

There grewe an aged tree on the greene; A goodly Oake sometime had it bene, With armes full strong and largely displayed, But of their leaves they were disarayde The bodie bigge, and mightely pight, Thoroughly rooted, and of wond'rous hight; Whilome had bene the King of the field, And mochell mast to the husband did yielde, And with his nuts larded many swine: But now the gray mosse marred his rine; His bared boughes were beaten with stormes, His toppe was bald, and wasted with wormes, His honour decayed, his braunches sere.Edmund Spenser
It is alarming and odious to see Mr Gandhi, a seditious MiddleTemple lawyer, now posing as a fakir of a type well-known in the East, striding half-naked up the steps of the vice-regal palace, while he is still conducting a defiant campaign of civil disobedience, to parley on equal terms with the representative of the King- Emperor.Lord Randolph Henry Spencer Churchill
