Looks like mostly the same old sayings on the shirts of a dozen other sights just like it. Yawn. I wonder if they use cheapo super thin cotton shirts like Threadless uses. They have great prints but their junky shirt (and hoody) material lost me as a customer.
Do any of these shirt companies still use shirts like the famous Haynes Beefy T?

These 10 countries have the best workers in the world
In a new report ranking countries around the globe on their workers' potential, the World Economic Forum argues that the health of a nation's workforce "can be a more important determinant of its long-term economic success than virtually any other resource." The rankings are based on four factors: education, health, workforce, and enabling environment. Education measures the quality of schools and the achievement of students to get a sense of how both current and future workers have been educated. Health measures physical and mental well-being from childhood through old age.
Here are the 10 countries with the best workers, based on all of those factors.

RENO — Renown Breast Health Center offers northern Nevada's first and only whole breast screening ultrasound, SonoCine. The technology detects cancer hidden in dense breast tissue in standard mammogram images.
Lately, there has been some confusion surrounding mammography screening guidelines, according to a Renown press release sent Monday. The American Cancer Society and the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists agree that women age 40 and older with average risk should be offered a yearly mammogram. Additional researchers state that other risk factors should be taken into account when making a mammogram decision, such as breast-tissue density, history of biopsy and family history of breast cancer.
According to Dr. Susan Ward, radiologist with Reno Radiological Associates at Renown Breast Health Center, the latest recommendation is good news because breast cancers found in younger patients usually grow faster than those found in older women and are often harder to detect due to increased breast tissue density.
When women are young, their breasts are made up of the specialized breast tissue that produces milk during breast feeding. This tissue is very thick, or dense. As women age, the breast tissue often changes. Fat replaces the dense milk-producing breast tissue. However, 30 percent of women over age 50 have dense breast tissue.
Women with very dense breast tissue have a six times greater risk of cancer. Studies also reveal that 60 to 100 percent more cancers are detected in women with dense breasts when SonoCine screening breast ultrasound is added to screening mammography.
Right now, in the state of Nevada, screening breast ultrasound is not covered by insurance. SonoCine is used as a supplement to a mammogram and costs $295. Through Oct. 31, Renown Health is offering a friends and family special price of $150. Friends and family members of Renown employees can provide the name of the employee they know upon scheduling their appointment to take advantage of a discounted, one-time rate.
To schedule a screening mammogram or SonoCine screening breast ultrasound, call 982-8100. For more information, visit renown.org/sonocine.

OTT, Earl Francis "Frank" Sr., 84, of Plainville, cherished husband of Nancy (Stodder) Ott, died quietly in his home, surrounded by his family, on Saturday, July 6, 2013. Born on June 28, 1929, in Elizabeth, West Virginia, Frank was the fourth of seven children, of the late Curly David and Virginia Alice (Stephens) Ott-Sheppard.
Raised in Weirton, West Virginia, he moved to Connecticut to find work, living his life full of strength and determination, transcending the ravages of polio.
Shortly after moving to Meriden, Frank met Nancy, whom he fell for at first glance. They married and spent 59 loving years together, proudly fostering 37 children, while raising three of their own. Facing constant discrimination regarding his abilities due to polio, he fought for his position at American Cyanamid in Wallingford, where he would spend the next 40 years working in various positions, and always looking to expand his knowledge of the industry.
Upon his retirement, Frank and Nancy spent over ten years fulfilling their love for the outdoors traveling in their camper, visiting most of the United States and Canada. Frank had an eclectic personality and was passionate about music and photography. He played many brass instruments and the guitar. Both passions led him to pursue a fascination with computers to archive his family history with photography and music. Frank was a member of the Salvation Army, where he and his family worshiped and served.
A devoted father, grandfather and uncle, he will be greatly missed, leaving a legacy of love, strong will, and many happy memories. In addition to his wife, Nancy, he leaves his children, Earl Ott, Jr., Gini Ott- Crisanti and husband, Michael, Vicki (Ott) Harris and husband, Chad, Anita (Mahadocon) Ganaros and husband, Jim, Arthur Klein and wife, Lori, Jeanne Dominique and husband Don, and Connie Stula, 24 grandchildren, six great- grandchildren, and many, many nieces and nephews. Frank was predeceased by his brothers, Edward and John Ott, and sisters, Elizabeth (Betty) Demko, Ida Katherine (Kate) Brown, and Pansy Pearl Mayhew.
A memorial service in celebration of Frank's life will be held on July 10th at 1 p.m. at the Salvation Army 19 Stearns St., Bristol, CT.
Memorial donations may be made to the Salvation Army or Connecticut Children's Medical Center Foundation, Inc. 282 Washington St., Hartford, CT 06106.

"Insuring" Farming and Conservation Success (June 2012)
The Farm Bill affects more U.S. land than any other piece of federal legislation in place today. For agricultural policy to best serve America's needs in the 21st century, we need a modern Farm Bill that will sustain our farms, our lands, and our people. The Izaak Walton League has identified focused, cost-effective policies for the 2012 Farm Bill that can be implemented within existing frameworks and without additional spending. In fact, these recommendations can save taxpayer dollars while also ensuring conservation benefits. Taking these modest steps to protect and enhance our nation's natural resources will promote sustainable agriculture, conserve fish and wildlife habitat, and provide economic opportunities for all Americans.
Izaak Walton League 2012 Farm Bill
Re-establish the connection between federal crop insurance premium subsidies and basic conservation compliance provisions aimed at protecting wetlands and reducing soil erosion.
Crop Insurance Severed From
Conservation Compliance
Many Farm Bill programs that provide financial support to farmers include provisions known as "conservation compliance." This system ensures that when public funds are voluntarily accepted by producers, the public benefits through basic protections for soil, water, and wetlands. However, the federal crop insurance program – soon to be the largest Farm Bill subsidy for farmers – does not carry common-sense conservation compliance provisions.
This problem has its roots in the 1996 Farm Bill, when lawmakers exempted crop insurance from long-standing conservation standards. The justification offered at the time was the need to encourage more farmers to sign up for crop insurance, which would decrease federal expenditures for disaster assistance. Since then, crop insurance enrollments have increased exponentially. Today, crop insurance participation rates exceed 80 percent for corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, and peanuts; more than 264 million acres are insured across the country.
Taxpayers Provide a Safety
Providing crop insurance as a "safety net" for American farmers makes sense. Farming is risky, and crop insurance can protect against the unpredictability of weather and ensure producers can meet our nation's needs. However, federal crop insurance policies are often very different from the insurance policies we have for our cars or homes. For example, the average America car owner pays each year for car insurance but only receives an insurance payment if the car is damaged. On the other hand, many crop insurance policies pay out regardless of whether a crop is destroyed by drought, flourishing in perfect conditions, or anything in between.
Moreover, underwriting the cost of crop insurance costs taxpayers billions of dollars annually. Federal payments to cover crop insurance premiums grew from $500 million per year in the 1980s to more than $7.4 billion in 2011. On average, taxpayers cover 60 percent of a producer's crop insurance premiums, although subsidies can be as high as 80 percent. Over the next decade, crop insurance premium supports are projected to account for more Farm Bill spending than any program other than nutrition.
Taxpayers Rapidly Losing
Conservation Benefits
Supporting farmers to ensure our country's ability to feed our citizens makes sense, but it also makes sense to ensure taxpayers receive conservation benefits in return. Current crop insurance policies encourage risky agricultural production directly at odds with our nation's conservation goals. Ensuring revenue for a crop year – regardless of actual production and with no limits on payments – rewards expanded production without consideration for damage to soil, wetlands, or even land productivity.
Failure to reconnect crop insurance subsidies with conservation compliance has major implications for natural resources and conservation. Many traditional farm support programs that have conservation provisions are not making payments because commodity prices have been (and are projected to continue to be) historically high. This means producers are not required to meet conservation compliance provisions. Policy changes in the 2012 Farm Bill would further weaken conservation efforts. Direct payments to major crop producers have historically been connected with conservation compliance. However, with record-high crop prices and the need to reduce the federal budget deficit, it is widely anticipated that Congress will eliminate direct payments and other traditional farm support payments in the 2012 Farm Bill – along with the conservation provisions tied to these payments.
These policy changes are not projected to yield major savings for taxpayers. Instead, spending for farm subsidies is shifting decidedly toward crop insurance, and there is steadfast opposition to reconnecting conservation compliance provisions to these subsidies. The long-standing covenant between taxpayers and producers is breaking down.
The League urges Congress to reconnect conservation compliance with crop insurance subsidies. Reinstating basic standards to reduce soil erosion and protect wetlands as part of the single largest farm subsidy program will help conserve fish and wildlife, safeguard drinking water supplies, and provide flood protection. At a time when the long-standing connection between taxpayer support and conservation compliance is eroding, this requirement is especially important. In addition, withholding payments from farmers who choose not to meet basic conservation standards will save taxpayer dollars.
In June 2012, the U.S. Senate approved an amendment to the 2012 Farm Bill to reestablish the connection between conservation compliance and federal crop insurance premium subsidies. It is important that the House of Representatives take similar steps.
Our recommendation is both fiscally responsible and continues long-standing support for America's farmers. It strikes a balance between protecting farmers and ensuring American taxpayers receive basic conservation benefits in return for billions of dollars in financial support.
This is one of a series of fact sheets on Izaak Walton League priorities for the 2012 Farm Bill. Visit the League's Web site at www.iwla.org/agriculture for more information.

Girl Planning
As a leader, it may seem easier for you to make plans first, then consult with your girls, but girl-adult planning, the cornerstone of Girl Scouting, is too valuable a step to skip. Girl planning helps girls feel involved and provides them more opportunities to become responsible and self-reliant. They learn how to plan, make decisions democratically, and develop leadership and interpersonal skills.
Partnering Tips
1. Recognize the amount of time needed for planning.
Set aside time at each meeting to plan special trips, to decide which Badges to work on, or to set money earning goals.
2. Take into account the maturity level of the girls in your group as you guide decision-making.
Girl Scout Daisies and Brownies can participate in the decision-making process through the use of the Girl Scout circle. All Girl Scouts can be given increasing responsibility within the troop. For example girls ages 8-11 can be making their own troop goals while girls ages 11-14 can plan all meetings and activities.
3. Be sure that all girls get a chance to be part of the planning.
It's easy to forget about the quiet girls when a couple of outgoing girls monopolize the conversation. Make it a practice for everyone to share at least one idea when planning. Take votes so that every person counts. Ask girls to pair up to discuss their ideas. This makes it easier for a shy child to voice her opinion.
4. Help other adults plan with girls not for them.
Parents and volunteers should understand that girl-adult partnership is a cornerstone of Girl Scouting. If you need to, give the other troop adults a separate task or topic to discuss, preferably in another room, so the planning is largely girl centered.
How do I do it?
Your attitude is the single most important factor in making girl planning a growing experience for the girls! Consider these questions:
Do I believe in the girls' ability to plan and carry out?
Can I listen to their opinions and be guided by them?
Can I let girls make a mistake in order to learn?
Do I possess initiative and encourage initiative in others?
Can I remember that Girl Scouting is for girls and that their well-being comes first?
If you can answer YES, good! You are ready to begin.
First: Get their attention! Try:
- The hand signal: Make a game of it. (Up-Quiet! Down-make noise!)
- Bandana: Tie a knot in a bandana, throw it in the air-make noise. When it drops– quiet.
- A circle of silence: Have the first girl hold the end of a ball of yarn, and pass it on. As the yarn unravels, each girl becomes silent as she holds a piece of the yarn.
Second: Have the girls brainstorm. Try:
- Helping the girls explore activities in their Journey and Girl's Guide books.
- Putting up a poster board. As the girls voice what they want to do, write down their ideas.
- Dividing into patrols and having them make a list of things they'd like to do. Making a dream box and letting each girl write her own suggestions.
When the brainstorming session ends, help the girls set priorities, and establish a calendar of activities and events for the year using the girls' ideas.
Tips for Challenges
- The overwhelmer
She jumps up and down. She waves her hand in front of your nose and shouts.
- She needs:
-Adult recognition. She wants your attention.
-Acknowledgement. The more you resist, the harder she'll try.
-Always sit next to her. When she overwhelms you, put your arm around her. You can call on someone else. Say "let's let Susie do it this time."
-Give her something specific to do before an activity. Let her hold something.
- She needs:
- The negative girl or group, she/they need choices.
- Ask yourself is this what they want to do? Can I give up what I've planned and do something else?
- Try saying "Okay! I'm willing to do something else. What will it be?" and "Let's change moods first!"
- Cliques and other problems
- First talk about it.
- Sit in a circle. Have each girl, in turn, complete the sentence "Right now I feel…" Then the sentence (each in turn) "I can help by…" then the sentence (each in turn) "Next time I will…"
- Write down the "Next time I will…" sentences on a large piece of paper. Now make a troop agreement about it. Keep it posted.
- Remember that… It is important to acknowledge the problem. Be consistent with their answers.
- Also try… Have each girl sit between two girls they don't know well. Having each girl pick a friend, then they pick someone they don't know well.
- A quiet group
- Try… Start a list for them. "Here are some things we can do. Out of these, what would you like to do?"
- Maybe they are shy. Ask them to write down their suggestions. Later share them with the group.
- Try some mixer games to help them feel comfortable in a group.
- The "I can't-er" or the "I don't know-er"
- Don't argue with her. Try saying "Oh-oh, here comes the I can't. Let's get them all out." Have them list her/their "I can'ts" and the reasons why they can't.
- Listen. Maybe she really can't, and you can help. Then, try saying, "But if you could what would it be like?" If she says "I don't know" ask her to imagine as many "coulds", or to draw a picture of a "could".
- Always respond to an "I can't-er" with your full attention. Sit down so that you are at eye level. Ask, "and if you could what would it be like?" Help her to see alternatives.
It is okay to be shy. Maybe the "I can't-ers " are shy. Maybe "gigglers" are shy.
Try… Calling her by name when you talk. Helping her find a friend. Giving her a special, particular task. Letting her know "I'm glad you are here."
When you are having a problem, ask yourself:
Are they doing what they want to do, or what I/we want them to do? Do they really know what is expected of them? Have we planned too much?
Don't judge yourself by the personality of the group. Tell them how you feel. Ask them for their help. Have fun!

Should the Assault Weapons Ban Be Reinstated?
Next year Sen. Diane Feinstein is re-introducing the Assault Weapons Ban that expired in 2004.
Sen. Diane Feinstein of California said she will introduce an updated assault weapons ban to the new Congress in 2013, following the gun massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Twenty children and six adults were killed by a gunman who burst into the Newtown, Conn. school two weeks ago, and the incident has renewed the national gun control debate.
Feinstein is the author of the original Assault Weapons Ban that was passed in 1994 but expired in 2004. The new bill will stop sales and manufacturing of assault weapons and large ammunition magazines, strips, and drums that hold more than 10 rounds. She said she's been working with her staff for over a year on the legislation:
It will be carefully focused on the most dangerous guns that have killed so many people over the years while protecting the rights of gun owners by exempting hundreds of weapons that fall outside the bill's scope. We must take these dangerous weapons of war off our streets.
[ See a collection of political cartoons on gun control and gun rights.]
According to a Justice Department study, the original ban reduced gun deaths by 6.7 percent, and the absence of the ban has resulted in assault weapons being used in 385 deaths.
Feinstein's office stressed the fact that the new assault weapons ban will not restrict the ability of hunters to use such weapons for sporting purposes by offering an exemption for those weapons as well as allowing weapons legally possessed before the enactment date of the bill to be grandfathered in. Yet gun rights advocates say the bill infringes upon their Second Amendment right to bear arms, and "the 'assault weapons' ban is just way for the Democrats to get their foot in the door and ban handguns." Awr Hawkins writes:
But an even bigger problem lurks—right now the focus is only on "assault weapons" and semi-auto handguns, however, as soon as a public crime is committed with a double-action revolver, Feinstein and Co. will try to add those to the list as well.
The bottom line: If we are foolish enough to embrace a ban on any weapon in the coming Congress then we are unwittingly embracing a ban on every weapon. "
[ See 2012: The Year in Cartoons.]
What do you think? Should the assault weapons ban be reinstated? Take the poll and comment below.
This poll is now closed, but the debate continues in the comments section.

Larry Clark (American, born 1943)
Everytime I See You Punk You're Gonna Get the Same, 1963
Gelatin silver print 8 in. x 12 1/2 in. (20.32 cm x 31.75 cm)
Crocker Art Museum Purchase1981.26
In 1963, Larry Clark instinctually brought the documentary impulse into uncharted territory. "I knew in some way that I was photographing things that were not supposed to be photographed. Forbidden things. It just happened to be things I was doing myself as an eighteen-year-old."1 For nearly a decade Clark made exceedingly candid views of sex, drug use, and violence among a coterie of Midwestern teens. The blackand-white prints began to suggest a narrative, which Clark compiled, edited, and published in 1971 as the book Tulsa. Tulsa's baldly honest photos were and remain shocking. Most affective was the artist's use of the storyline style made popular by Life magazine photo essays. Clark's point was clearly made: "All teenagers have a secret life and it's always darker than what their parents think."2 Clark's engagement with his subjects spared no one. From their alienation, hostility, and restlessness may be inferred the artist's own early compromised and dysfunctional teenage relationships. Particularly charged with tension, Clark's Everytime I See You Punk portrays aggression and the unsettling stupor of drug use, but it is also mitigated by the subjects' youth, providing hope that they, as was true of the artist, may outlast the vagaries of the teen years. About spending his career documenting the rebellion and self-destructive behavior of teens at society's fringe, Clark says, "I'm always trying to get at the consequences of actions."3

16 of 192:
'Vampire Diaries' star Kat Graham engaged to Cottrell Guidry, her fiance announced on October 29.
Guidry, who is also an actor, wrote on his official Facebook page, 'I love my girl. She's amazing and everything I could ever dream of. I can't wait to call you my wife.'
Though the actress did not comment on the engagement, she changed her status to 'engaged to Cottrell Guidry,' 'liked' Guidry's post and uploaded a photo of the couple kissing to her Facebook page.
Guidry lives in Atlanta, Georgia, where the CW series "The Vampire Diaries" is filmed.
Graham is known for her role as Bonnie Bennett in 'The Vampire Diaries.' Her first role was in the 1998 Lindsay Lohan film, 'The Parent Trap.' She has also appeared in films like 'Honey 2' and '17 Again' and on shows like 'Hannah Montana' and 'Lizzie McGuire.'

DAHLONEGA, GA – The 3rd-ranked North Georgia softball team ended the 2011 regular season in style on Monday afternoon, sweeping away Francis Marion 2-1 and 6-1 at Haines & Carolyn Hill Stadium in Peach Belt Conference action.
A day after learning a loss by Columbus State sealed the Saints' third straight PBC Championship, North Georgia never let up, sweeping the Patriots to improve to 43-9 overall and end the regular season at 17-3 in the Peach Belt Conference.
Francis Marion's season comes to an end as they fall short of the 2011 PBC Tournament, ending the year at 24-21-1 overall, 7-13 in league action, and one game out of the eighth and final spot in the tournament.
With USC Aiken winning a pair of games on Monday afternoon, UNC Pembroke slides into the eighth and final spot in the PBC Tournament and will face North Georgia on Friday morning at 11:00 a.m. at Freedom Florence Park.
The Saints will be looking to earn their third straight PBC Tournament championship as they are 12-2 all-time in the tournament and have won eight straight games at the event over the last two years. North Georgia has played in the title game each of the last three years, falling to Georgia College in 2008, before taking down USC Aiken in 2009, and Francis Marion in 2010.
On Monday afternoon, game one was scoreless and hitless until the second inning when Chelle Phillips took the third pitch she saw and drilled a solo home run to left field to send the Patriots out to a 1-0 lead.
The Saints were held without a hit until the fourth inning when Pilar Harden connected on a double to left center with two outs, and Katherine Martin followed and sent a base knock up the middle to send Harden racing home and knot the score at 1-1.
The score stayed deadlocked until the bottom of the seventh inning when Kayla Martin led off and blasted a solo home run to left center, putting the Saints in front for good and sending North Georgia to a 2-1 game-one victory.
Jessica Coan (22-4) picked up the win with her 21st complete game of the season, as she tallied her 15th game of 10 or more strikeouts after fanning 11 Patriot batters. Kayla Ellingsen (11-8) was the tough-luck loser, allowing two runs and striking out four in 6.0 innings of work.
The nightcap featured another stellar pitching performance as Sarah Phillips stifled the Francis Marion lineup and tossed a no-hitter in the final regular season game of her collegiate career.
Francis Marion did scrape together a run in the first inning as a leadoff walk led to a fielder's choice and a sacrifice fly to send Destinea Scheider home and give the Patriots a 1-0 lead once again.
The lead would be short lived however, as the Saints came out firing in the bottom of the first inning with three straight singles, followed by a fielder's choice and a fielding error to give North Georgia a 4-0 lead. An errant throw later in the frame brought Katherine Martin racing home and capped the five-run first inning.
The Saints added a single run in the fourth inning on a Kasey Knight groundout, and Phillips did the rest, shutting down the Patriots and striking out five to improve to 17-4 on the season.

I know there's probably no point, but I finally snapped and dished some truth to some Israel haters in my Facebook feed. What finally set me off was this comment: "I find it inescapable that the Israelis took Palestine from the folks who were living there in 1946. Out of that injustice springs the current strife. I think the Israelis need to (1) apologize and (2) foot the bill for building a viable Palestinian state (a la the Rand plan), and (3) pay reparations. That would be a solid start to ending the conflict."

Play some beats and bring the house down: iPhone apps of the week
For a friend's birthday the other night, we all went down to his rehearsal space (he's in a band) and played music, often switching instruments to see what we could come up with. Not everyone there was a musician, but with drums, guitars, basses, a keyboard, percussion instruments, and microphones, everyone found a way to get in on the jam. To add to the fun later in the night, my friend also had a cord to connect an iPod or iPhone to the PA system which meant I could try out some of my music apps. Among the … Read more

C. S. Lewis Daily - Thursday, August 29, 2013
It is a wonderful thing and a strengthening of faith that two souls differing from each other in place, nationality, language, obedience and age should have been thus led into a delightful friendship; so far does the order of spiritual beings transcend the material order.
It makes easier that necessary doctrine that we are most closely joined together alike with the sinner Adam and with the Just One, Jesus, even though as to body, time and place we have lived so differently from both. This unity of the whole human race exists: would that there existed that nobler union of which you write. No day do I let pass without my praying for that longed-for consummation.

Another year and another saturation of the extreme sports market. Every year we see more and more of these off road games sneaking on to store shelves, motocross and ATV sports seem like all the rage these days so it goes without saying the Sony would continue to release their Offroad Fury line even without the help of developer Rainbow Studios. Sony's new partner Climax has a good track record of racing games with Rally Fusion and the Moto GP series, and for the most part their skills carry over well in to the ATV racing genre. Despite a few technical issues they do manage to recreate the same game that Rainbow had previously released, I just wish there was more evolution to the title instead of retread.
All Terrain Vehicle racing is something I've always wanted to try but never really had the funds or training to do so. But thanks to modern day graphics and game play I'd like to think that for the most part these games convey the feeling of flying off a sand dune at forty five miles an hour. For the most part ATV Offroad Fury 3 and the previous games have done an excellent job in producing an effective sense of speed and control. Although the immersion factor presented in graphics could use a little tweaking this late in the game, it still looks like a very solid title. For those who don't like to go it alone there is also online play included that is for the most part handled very well, I didn't have any issues at all while playing this on my DSL connection. It's just a little bare bones, and the inclusion of mini games didn't really strike me as all that special.
After navigating your way through the main menus and creating your player profile for both online and offline play you're ready to get up and go in to the meat and potatoes of the game. There are multiple modes of racing that you can partake in, but all in all it's still at the very core, simple racing. If you're up for a quick race you can just jump in to a single race, you're not going to have a lot to play with though if this is your first time in the game. To start unlocking more tracks you need to go through Championship mode and complete a five race circuit in order to unlock more tracks that feature more twists, more turns, and most importantly, more air. Aside from straight up racing there is a stunt mode that contains a lot of the fetch quest type game play that is becoming prevalent in extreme sports games these days. Go collect markers that are spread through the map, complete a four trick stunt, reach a specified number of points. It's all stuff that has been seen before and is par for the course.

Is President Obama to blame for high gasoline prices?Thursday, April 19th, 2012
President Obama knows that gas prices above $4 can have a negative impact on his reelection chances. That's why the White House just announced a new effort to crack down on speculation in oil futures contracts "to give American families confidence that illegal manipulation, fraud and market rigging are not contributing to gas price increases."
Of course, Republicans also know that gas prices above $4 can be a problem for the president. That's why Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and other GOP leaders have dismissed Mr. Obama's attack on oil speculation as political gimmickry and called instead for faster development of domestic oil resources and approval of the Keystone pipeline.
Both sides are playing to the myth that the president quickly can affect gas prices at the pump. The biggest factor affecting prices continues to be global demand. The fastest way to cool that also is the most damaging. A recession would cut demand and therefore prices, but who wants that?
The Federal Reserve said speculation does affect prices, accounting for about 15 percent of the rise in gas prices to well above $4 per gallon by mid-2008. Of course, prices then plummeted to the $2.50 range when the Great Recession hit. Forbes has calculated that speculators – who now control about two-thirds of oil futures contracts – add more than 23 cents to the current price of gasoline.
A crackdown on speculation probably could reduce the price quicker than increased drilling. But neither would make the price plummet.
By implying that a crackdown on speculation could quickly cut the price, Mr. Obama is opening himself to blame for gasoline prices. Republicans would add that his overall policies are propping up the price.
He has emphasized development of alternative sources of energy, including wind and solar.
Even if "drill, baby, drill" wouldn't increase the gasoline supply for years, a more drill-friendly policy, they argue, would encourage a mindset for lower prices immediately.

Estonian LMHI Report 2010
In 2010, Estonian homeopaths have been rather active. Different homeopathic unions have organised several seminars and courses. The development of EHU (Estonian Homeopathic Union) has been stable. Meetings and patients' discussions have been held regularly. Neither the number of homeopaths nor the number of LMHI rnembers have changed significantly. Due to the economic downrun, quite a few homeopaths have started private practices and hence, the popularity of homeopathy in Estonia has risen. While considering different schools that have influenced homeopaths in Estonia, the Belgian-Russian, Finnish, Mr. Vithoulkas' (Greek) and British schools have remained the most dominant. The doctor-homeopaths have continuously been visiting courses in Bulgaria, Russia (in Moscow and St. Petersburg), Finland and Greece. Since 2008, Estonian Qualification Authority has yielded 15 Homeopathic Qualifications. Over the past year under ten publications on homeopathy have been published in Estonian media. In addition, an article of my own on homeopathy has been published and 1 performed in the Estonian television.
