Skip to comments.Report: Cain voted for Clinton
Posted on 11/01/2011 8:55:31 PM PDT by txroadkillEdited on 11/01/2011 8:56:59 PM PDT by Admin Moderator. [history]
A new report claims that Republican presidential contender Herman Cain voted for Democrat Bill Clinton for president in his first run, as well as for two Nebraska Democratic candidates in the past.
In a story on the Nebraska Watchdog website, Joe Jordan writes that Mr. Cain supported Mr.Clinton during his 1992 presidential bid, 17 months before he squared off with Mr. Clinton over his push to overhaul the national health care system.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
I know what you mean, I started out liking Cain.
I missed that. So I guess maybe this is an admission that he supported Clinton?
In the hillarycare video where Cain complains to Clinton about how the law would hurt restaurants, he does start by thanking Bill Clinton for tackling the national problem of health care. I have called that just another example of being polite before getting your message across. I'm guessing hillarycare wasn't the only thing that would have turned Cain away from Clinton though.
Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptrTa8C_Pl4
I assume you know that exchange between Cain and Clinton is credited as the beginning of the end of Hillarycare.
It is harder to feel bad for him, after his disgraceful attack on Perry when he called him "insensitive to blacks" over the rock story. Perry is being much more graceful on Cain's current problems.
But that's because Perry has been focused on one thing — sinking Romney. Cain on the other hand has an announced strategy of tearing down all the other conservatives, and leaving Romney alone. Because that will make all the supporters of the guys he attacks support Cain instead — it's the "last man on the sinking ship" strategy.
Well IF Rainbow Push Coalition could support Cain...guess Cain could support Clinton.
Well, Cain's affinity for Romney and aversion to Perry is well-documented here. If you really want proof of that, stick around.
Cain said the same thing in an interview not that long ago that it was the mid 90s that he became a Republican (Kemp had a positive influence on him)
This is not news, he's mentioned it in at least one interview that I know of.
I find this so funny after all the flack we've had about Perry and Gore [twenty three years ago].
I'm heading to bed. - Also, hope you saw this;
JimRob - I like Perry just fine.....
Remember, too, that Bill was the first black president.
Clinton is as much of a nut job as Gore and it was Clinton that chose Gore to run as his VP!!!
Well, I voted for Mondale, you know the guy who stated at the Democrat convention that he would raise taxes? I didn't actually see him make that statement when he made it but I say a clip of him saying that.
My excuse was I was young, voting for the first time in my life and because I'm black, I was supposed to vote for Democrats because Republicans hated black people.
What happened? I became a Christian, learned what the DemocRATS stood for and soon after, registered as a Republican and voted that way ever since.
Rut row.
I am well versed in the whole "Cain loves Romney" BS from the Perrybots, thanks.
He supported Gore in a primary. So his support did absolutely NOTHING to help a democrat out against a republican in an election. And his "support" appears to have been mostly lending his name as a low-level democratic politician; like those "honorary chair" positions candidates like to tout to help them get in-state donations.
I doubt Cain was instrumental in getting Clinton elected over Bush. Perot and his followers are mostly to blame for that one. And Bush. I don't think either really matters — just glad to have Cain on our side now. But by any standard, supporting a democrat in a presidential election in the 1990s is "worse" than supporting a democrat in a presidential primary in the 1980s.
Also note that, for those who said Perry was way too old for a "come to your senses" argument, Cain was a lot older when he became a republican than Perry was.
Dean Vernon Wormer: "He is? Well, as of this moment, Herman Cain is on DOUBLE SECRET PROBATION!"
The article says that campaign manager Gordon is the source of the information. And that Cain turned Republican by 1996.
That was the year he started lobbying for the National Restaurant Association.
It's not what issues he discusses. It's his "I could support Romney, but I could never support Perry" comments. And his "Romney would be a good choice for President", and his "I'd love to be Romney's VP", and his campaign's announcement that they were going to target conservatives and leave Romney alone, so they were the last conservatives standing and all the conservatives would have to support him or else.
Of course, I'm not sure Cain has really "attacked" Romney on anything other than Romneycare.
Thank you for that clarification. I'd like to see this from the campaign, not 3rd-hand. On the other hand, I don't think it matters (other than it should shut up the people attacking Perry, where I also don't think it matters).
I'm beginning to think that Cain's problem is his staff.
Did Gordon really admit that Cain has only been a Republican for 15 years?
Candidates I voted for, until I saw the light in 1994 and became a conservative.
I voted for Clinton too. Not going to judge the man for that, there was a time when the Democratic Party was not communist.
1989 vs sometimes between 1993 and 1996. And Cain is 66, Perry is 61. Looks like Perry, for all his faults, is a faster learner than Cain.
Holy Crap! We hve no one to vote for, Nobody at all. DOOM.
Does this mean that Cain voted against Ronald Reagan in the '80's?
But thats because Perry has been focused on one thing sinking Romney.
I'm talking kill wounds - that's how you do it in real hunting if you really have a target in your sights. Perry's having help from Real Governors of Real States containing Real People who want to erase Obama, and he's taking flack from his own 'side'.
It is now, although oddly I was alive in 1994, and I don't remember that being the reason for hillarycare going down in flames. It was the Harry & Loise commercial, produced by Health Insurance industry.
I know Wikipedia isn't the best source in the world for anything political, but in a reasonable discussion about Hillarycare and it's demise, it says this: "Opposition to the Clinton plan was initiated by William Kristol and his policy group Project for the Republican Future, which is widely credited with orchestrating the plan's ultimate defeat through a series of now legendary "policy memos" faxed to Republican leaders.[17] "
It does mention Cain's question as an important turning point as well: "One key turning point against the Clinton plan was a televised town hall meeting in April 1994. During the event, President Clinton was challenged by businessman Herman Cain on the resulting effects on small businesses."
And it also mentions Harry and Louise: "The effort also included extensive advertising criticizing the plan, including the famous Harry and Louise ad paid for by the Health Insurance Association of America, which depicted a middle-class couple despairing over the plan's complex, bureaucratic nature."
I've taken the claims crediting Cain with ending Hillarycare as typical campaign rhetoric.
Interesting information on the Journalist(sic)/blogger that the Washington Times cites.
What is interesting in this if you read near the bottom was in the race that is cited, he is accused of making up quotes by Bruning's (Senate Candidate) finance chairman David Sokol... Hmmm...
..and just one more interesting point, look at what other site Jordan writes for.
What you might not know is that just 17 months earlier Cain was on Clintons side. Ten days after he confronted the President, Cain told this reporter (at the time Cain was living in Omaha and I was reporting for KMTV the CBS affiliate in Omaha) that, while he was embarrassed to admit it, on Election Day, 1992 Cain had voted for the Clinton-Gore ticket.
And its not as if Cain had jumped on a Nebraskans for Clinton bandwagon. Most of the state opposed Clinton, who only managed to pick up 29 per cent of the vote (Bush 47-Clinton 29-Perot 24).
I voted for Perot, maybe I should be in prison. LOL
Or an insane asylum.. :-)
Supported? I think Clinton just ordered a pizza from Godfathers and then this girl delivered it and and -— never mind!
Baloney. You're trying too hard. We knew about the women, but mostly, we knew that the Dems and the Clintons were all for abortion, all abortion, all the time.
"In 1992 Clinton was more conservative than GHW Bush."
That's not true at all. Clinton may have run as a semi-conservative to get elected, but once inaugurated, the first thing he tried to do was institute gays in the military. Then his first major policy initiative (after signing into law the largest tax increase in U.S. history up to that point) was HillaryCare(essentially a duplicate of Obamacare).
The reality is that it's the fact that Clinton lurched so far left in 93-94 that lead to the GOP wipeout in the 94 elections. After those elections, Clinton wisely took Dick Morris' advice and triangulated-claiming GOP initiatives like Welfare Reform for his own. But he never would have pushed for these with a Dem Congress.
I think people have hazy memories of how liberal Clinton was (especially at the beginning of his first term) because Obama is such a radical Marxist he makes Clinton look like Reagan. Clinton was above anything else a narcissist and willing to take whatever position he needed to maintain personal popularity. This caused him to take a few conservative positions, but he certainly was not more conservative than George HW Bush.
You two should try coordinating your defense better.
It's very confusing, having one Cain supporter telling us everybody knew this and it's not news, while another is telling us the writer is a lib and it's a made-up attack.
When you figure out what the story is between you two, let me know. Or I'll wait for Cain to be asked about this 4 times, so I can get the 4th and final clarification on the subject.
Bill Clinton was a serial rapist and worse and got clean away with it.
Me too...just out of college with a mind full of mush
No, Not if Cain thought Reagan was still a Democrat! :o)
The only thing that saved Monica's life was Linda Tripp's insistence she save the evidence. Otherwise, dead bimbo.
no wonder I was getting "Will Robinsons"...you get older you better listen to yourself
Rick Perry was a Democrat around those days too. The point?
IF true, Herm can make a point with his conversion. DO NOT act apologetic.
Now he's more conservative than I am! And we're still in NY so it really doesn't count... :(
But we're trying!
This Reagan Democrat says "who the %$#@ cares?
Well, who knows. I actually like the idea, it tells me Cain is capable of tossing aside a failed ideology and embracing a more pro-American view. Reagan did it, so did Perry.
I'll probably hold my nose and vote for the candidate who can beat Romney. Cain's lucky that I'm at the point of anybody but Romney or Obama.
Darn. I want my ball back, I'm going home.
"Cain said the same thing in an interview not that long ago that it was the mid 90s that he became a Republican (Kemp had a positive influence on him)
This is not news, hes mentioned it in at least one interview that I know of."
Agreed. And neither is it news that Perry supported Gore in 1988 before becoming a Republican in 1989 or that Michele Bachmann worked for the Carter campaign in 1976 but became a Republican in 1980 because of Reagan. The common thread with all of these examples is that once they switched over to the GOP, they have REMAINED there and have had consistent conservative positions ever since. This stands in sharp contrast to another leading candidate we know.
Rick Perry was a Democrat around those days too. The point?
You are seeing a political 'market correction' taking place.
Words have meanings, and elections have meanings.
Nov 2012 will further demonstrate the PEOPLE throwing off old deceptive labels and returning to the essence of America. No wonder all the RATS with any sense are looking to Hillary to get them out of this, the clintons are the agents of commie change, real change.
They will be buried, too.
There will NEVER, EVER be a reason to "gravitate toward Romney".

There's no telling what people will steal anymore… Here in my town, we have someone going around turning peoples water off, and stealing the brass/bronze water meter.
In another instance, a crew drove around at night and stole cast-iron manhole lids, I do not know how much scrap metal goes for, but neither of these items are easily disguised as scrap, not like copper wire pieces, or things that can be black-market sold.
Stealing a manhole lid also leaves an incredibly dangerous situation in the highway. Can you imagine coming home late at night in your front tire fall into an open manhole?

Officials at the Utah Field House of Natural History State Park Museum in Vernal are ready to make a major move.
They've packed some 33,000 dinosaur fossils, rock samples and other specimens for the move from an aging building to a state-of-the-art repository two blocks away.
The Deseret News reports the $1.5 million for the new 11,664-square-foot fossil repository and laboratory building came from a special district funded by mineral lease money paid by oil and natural gas companies in Utah.
It will allow museum staff to properly store and prepare fossils and artifacts that have been discovered in eastern Utah's Uintah Basin.
Without the new facility, many of the fossils and artifacts were destined for six museums in cities from San Diego to Pittsburgh.

Groovy Traits and Sling Models in AEM
October 12, 2015 6:30 PM
A little while back Paul Michelotti wrote a great blog showcasing the benefits of using Groovy Traits along with the CQ Component Plugin. Traits can be used for multiple inheritances in Groovy, but unlike interfaces, they can contain state and default logic. However, I wanted to take it a step further and use Sling Models for injecting that state. In this blog I will go through what additional steps need to be taken in order to get Sling Models to work.
LESS CSS in Adobe CQ 5.5
August 30, 2012 8:59 PM
What is it? If you blinked you might have missed it in the release notes but Adobe CQ 5.5 supports including LESS files along with your CSS in ClientLibs. If you are not familiar with LESS, it basically makes stylesheets more powerful by adding programming language-like features such as variables, functions, mixins, etc. It is very similar to Sass or Stylus if you have ever used those.
JavaOne 2009… Good Times!
June 23, 2009 4:44 PM
So I went to this conference a few weeks ago called JavaOne, you might have heard of it. Yeah, that's me drinking the Mountain Dew in the picture to the left. Actually this was my second trip to San Francisco for this conference however my experience this time around differed greatly, but in a good way. For one, I went with a group of 6 from CITYTECH Inc. including Bill Gloff, Jeff Palmer, Sten Anderson, Matt Campbell, and Matt Van Bergen. Last time it was just one other colleague and me back in 2006. There are definitely benefits from going with a group. For one, there could be a good session or BOF that you overlooked that another person might remind you of. For me, I almost missed the Script Bowl 2009. How would I forgive myself? Also, it's fun to get together and share things you've learned while it's still fresh in your mind. Actually a few of my colleagues wrote blogs on their experiences at JavaOne. Bill Gloff, Sten Anderson and Matt Van Bergen had many stories to tell which I will try not to repeat in this blog. Also, check out Matt Campbell of CITYTECH doing a lightning talk at the JavaOne pavilion.

The staff did their best.
The smell, the decor, the AM/FM radio, the extra fee for WIFI, the cost. I've wasted enough words on this so-called luxury hotel in my Tripadvisor review. Bottom line: If you like the 1980s, spend a night here.

The last day of January, three hours out of Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, and I am driving across a snowy Indiana landscape under a darkening sky to fulfill a speaking assignment. Having written a book titled The Idea of a Catholic University [1], I have given several talks sponsored by the Commonweal Speakers Program [2] at Catholic colleges and universities. Tonight's talk, on the relation of Catholicism to higher education, is at St. Joseph's College in Renssalaer, Indiana.
Driving instructions: "Off Interstate 65 onto Indiana 114; turn on Main St.; the college gate is just opposite the Walmart." It is 5 p.m. I pass a line of barren trees and spot the looming towers of a large church to the left and a scattering of academic buildings to the right. This is St. Joseph's, founded in 1889 by the Missionaries of the Precious Blood. Today the college has a thousand students and a student-faculty ratio of fifteen to one. Sixty-eight percent of students live on its 180-acre campus; 47 percent are Catholics.
Whether or not anyone learned anything from my talk that evening, I learned a great deal at St. Joseph's about actually doing Catholic higher education. It is all well and good to write a book about the idea of...

A New Phase in Our Digital Lives
Some people describe it as The End of the Internet, though that is probably a misnomer. Others, at the risk of cliché, might call it News 3.0.
Older Adults and Social Media
The number of older adults on Facebook and other social networking sites has roughly doubled in the past year. About half of internet users ages 50-64 and one-in-four users ages 65 and older now log onto social networks.
How Young Latinos Communicate with Friends in the Digital Age
While they still trail their non-Latino counterparts, young Latinos make extensive use of mobile technology. But use of cell phones and text messages differs notably among young Hispanics by nativity.
Latino Digital Divide: Native Born vs. Foreign Born
While rates of internet and cell phone use among native-born Hispanics are relatively high, technology use for the full population of Hispanics continues to lag behind the use rates of the non-Hispanic population.
More Cell Phone Owners Use an App for That
While cell phone ownership has remained stable, today's users are taking advantage of a much wider range of their phones' capabilities (pictures, internet, music, etc.) compared with 2009.
The Future of Online Socializing
The social benefits of internet use will far outweigh the negatives over the next decade, according to experts. Email, social networks, and other online tools offer low friction opportunities to create, enhance, and rediscover social ties that make a difference in people's lives and lower traditional communications constraints of cost, geography, and time.
The Future of Cloud Computing
Technology experts and stakeholders say they expect internet users will 'live mostly in the cloud' in 2020 and not on the desktop, working through cyberspace-based applications accessed through networked devices.
Neighbors Online
While nearly half of Americans still talk face-to-face with their neighbors, one in five now use digital tools to communicate with neighbors and monitor community developments.
Your New Tube: Online Video Continues to Grow
With an assist from YouTube, Facebook and Twitter, 69% of internet users have watched video online. There have been dramatic increases in the viewing of comedy and political videos, as well as movies and television on the internet.
The Semantic Web
Technology experts and stakeholders are divided over whether a world in which software agents carry out sophisticated tasks for users is on the immediate horizon.

I created a simple plugin for my personal use that allow my MU users to use shortcodes to enter some data, this gives them a easy way to use some formatting I have setup.
Anyway, I added some jquery that shows/hides sections by click on a link. However, this script is causing issues within the admin, more specifically in the file image upload section, where you "show/hide" the details for an image in the media library.
I am a newbie, that had to do alot of reading to make this plugin work. It works great besides that conflict in the media gallery.
I tried using the "no conflict mode" by adding jQuery(document).ready(function($) around the script, but that didnt seem to help.
Can someone PLEASE help me on this! I've spent hours on this plugin and don't want to scrap it!

There's a WP plugin called RSS Poster. In the last couple of days, we've been scraped by a couple of different sites using that plugin. They get our feeds -- they're basic feeds; no formatting -- and somehow RSS Poster converts them into formatted feeds, with images and all.
Is there a way to block scrapers using RSS Poster -- and other such plugins/software -- from stealing other sites' feeds? Of course, I know we can ban the IP addresses of the ones we find, but we were wondering if there's a way to block the plugin itself (and others like it) from capturing our feeds so as to block the scrapers we haven't found. This has become a real nuisance.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Led over the line by Spaniard Jonathan Castroviejo, Movistar completed a very technical 12.6km course in a time of 14 minutes and 13 seconds - six seconds faster than both Cannondale and Orica-GreenEdge.
It was a repeat of Movistar's 2012 TTT victory in Pamplona, which also saw Castroviejo take the inaugural leader's red jersey.
Trek Factory Racing and the Omega Pharma-Quick Step team of Giro d'Italia runner up Rigoberto Uran completed the top five at nine and 11 seconds respectively.
Five seconds down to Peter Sagan's Cannondale team at the first intermediate check, Movistar rallied over the second half of the course to come home with a full quota of riders on a sunny evening in Andalusia.
On a winding course that boasted no less than 22 roundabouts, many of the main race favourites were clearly not prepared to take any unnecessary risks - especially after the whole of Fabian Cancellara's Trek team crashed on a tight, wet bend in training.
The Team Sky team of Britain's Chris Froome - himself victim of a training accident after losing control on an oil patch on Friday - conceded 27 seconds for their eleventh place while Alberto Contador's Tinkoff-Saxo squad came home for seventh place, 19 seconds in arrears.
Level on time with Tinkoff-Saxo was the Belkin outfit of Dutchmen Wilco Kelderman and Robert Gesink, two seconds ahead of Cadel Evans' BMC team.
Despite Friday's shock withdrawal of defending champion Chris Horner - pulled from the race because of dangerously low cortisol levels - the American veteran's Lampre-Merida team posted the tenth best time at 25 seconds, two seconds faster than Froome and his Sky team-mates.
Early pace-setters MTN-Qhubeka eventually shipped 29 seconds to the winners for their 12th place, but finished one second quicker than the Astana team of Fabio Aru, the Italian youngster who finished behind Quintana and Uran on the Giro d'Italia podium in May.
Spaniard Joaquim Rodriguez will start the first road stage 38 seconds down on his GC rival Quintana after Katusha toiled for 16th place on the challenging course. Another three seconds to the worse was the Garmin-Sharp team of American Andrew Talansky, Canadian Ryder Hesjedal and Ireland's Dan Martin.
FDJ, Caja Rural and Cofidis all struggled to make an impact but the only team to concede more than a minute to Movistar was the French Europcar squad, who set the 22nd and worst time some 1:03 off the pace.
With 10, six and four bonus seconds up for grabs for the top three riders in all road stages, Sunday's largely pan-flat 174.5km stage from Algeciras to San Fernando could well see a new rider seize the red jersey from Castroviejo's shoulders.
Sprinters Sagan (Cannondale) and Michael Matthews (Orica-GreenEdge) are poised at just six seconds from the race summit and the slightly uphill finale will suit both the Slovakian and the Australian.

Ceiling Fan Direction Makes A Room Cooler or Warmer
We've had a few days of warm weather here on the East Coast lately and my wife and I have been running the ceiling fans in most of our rooms to keep the rooms cool without having to turn on our central air conditioner quite yet. Even though its been relatively mild outside we have a few rooms that get a lot of sun and warm up rather quickly.
I was sitting in my office last night and commented that even though the fan above me was on medium speed that it didn't feel as though it was cooling the room very well. It was at that moment that I realized I had forgotten to switch the fan direction from "warming" to "cooling."
You see, most ceiling fans will go in two directions: clockwise and counter-clockwise. Most ceiling fans sold these days have a small switch right "above" the blades (between the fan blades and the ceiling, on the "stem" of the fan) that control the fan blade blowing direction: right or left. Some fan manuals call these directions "forward" and "reverse" but I can never remember which direction is which. This fan direction switch is a pretty important feature because the ceiling fans will move air differently for each direction. You usually just need to flip the switch on the fan to change direction, but remember to use the same safety methods you used when you were cleaning your ceiling fan.
You can tell which way you fan is blowing by turning it on low and watching which way the blades spin. If the fan blades start moving to the right, then your ceiling fan is blowing clockwise. If the ceiling fan blades start moving to the left then your ceiling fan is blowing counter-clockwise. Simple so far… but which direction do you want for most fans?
Ceiling Fan Spinning Counter-Clockwise: Makes a room cooler by blowing the air downward. When the fan is spinning in a counter-clockwise direction you should feel a cool breeze coming down and around the room.
Ceiling Fan Spinning Clockwise: Makes a room warmer by creating subtle updraft which pushes the warm air near the ceiling down along the walls and into the room. When the fan in spinning in a clockwise direction you should not feel as much of a breeze.
Need to remember on the fly? Here's a phrase that helps the memory: Counter-Clockwise Cooler (You just need to remember there are three C's when it comes to ceiling fans!)
Stay cool this summer!

19 February 2016: Yamaha Motor India has introduced its premium 150cc bike to cater to those who seek for a perfect performance machine with impressive visuals and an improved power. It is available in two variants,i.e., SZ-S and SZ-RR, which differ from each other in terms of body appearance. The earlier version of this bike lacked some of the premium features so the company has unveiled its Version 2.0 model that is equipped with a lesser capacity engine along with Yamaha Blue Core engine technology. The bike will lock its horns against Bajaj Pulsar 150 and Hero MotoCorp Xtreme Sports.

|Engine Description
|Yamaha SZ RR Version 2.0
|56 Kmpl
|105 Kmph
|Air Cooled, 4-Stroke, SOHC, 2-Valve
|11.9 bhp @ 7500 rpm
Yamaha SZ was introduced few years back as the third 150cc offering by the company in the Indian market after YZF-R15 and FZ. The bike makes a perfect match for those who prefer a good looking entry-level performance motorcycle that fulfills the value for money statement. However, it isn't one of the best selling products of the company but still somehow manages to show a fair amount of sales in the company's sales charts.
Yamaha SZ gets its power from a 153cc, air-cooled, SOHC, 2-valve engine that comes mated to a five-speed constant mesh gearbox. It develops a peak power of 11.9bhp at 7,500rpm with a maximum torque of 12.8Nm at 4,500rpm and has a compression ratio of 9.5:1 with a bore x stroke ratio of 58mm x 57.9mm. Yamaha SZ-RR Version 2.0 houses a Blue Core enabled 149cc, four-stroke, air-cooled engine that has been paired with a five-speed constant mesh transmission. It churns out a peak power of 11.9bhp at 7,500rpm with a maximum torque of 12.8Nm at 6,000rpm. The bike runs on 2.75-17M/C 41P front and 100/90-17M/C 55P rear tubeless tyres with robust black alloy wheels. The suspension duties are carried out by telescopic forks upfront and reliable hydraulic coil spring shock absorbers at the rear. Yamaha SZ comes to a halt with a 245mm front disc and a 130mm rear drum brake.
The bike has been designed impressively keeping in mind the desires of the common mass and young generation. With a stylish headlamp at the front, the bike gets sporty tank shrouds that enhances its overall character. The seating isn't top notch but still it proves its worth in offering comfort to the rider and pillion. The machine has a fascinating rear end styling that is further intensified by the magnificent split grab rail. With body dimensions of 2,050mm x 760mm x 1,100mm (LxWxH), the bike has a respectable appearance in public. A wheelbase of 1,320mm and a minimum ground clearance of 165mm promises good handling and stability to the bike. The instrument cluster is old-fashioned comprising of an analogue speedometer, tachometer, odometer and fuel gauge.
Yamaha SZ-RR Version 2.0 receives a stylish front section which is witnessed by a robust aerodynamic headlamp with a black coloured vior crowned over it. Furthermore, the bike comes wrapped in an impressive dual tone color scheme that make it more appealing. The fuel tank design is plain and simple that gives a good riding position to the rider. The integration of fuel tank shrouds further enhances the overall styling of the bike. Yamaha SZ has a long and sleek well-padded seat that provides an optimum comfort to the rider and pillion even on longer rides. The side panels get impressive dual tone treatment with matte black and looks premium. The rear end of the bike sports a stylish tail lamp section with split rear grab rail. The all-black theme of the bike makes it look even more robust and raises its overall aesthetic values.
The bike has body dimensions of 2,050mm x 760mm x 1,100mm (LxWxH) and a wheelbase of 1,320mm. The seat is mounted at a height of 800mm giving benefit to short heighted riders as well. A minimum ground clearance of 165mm offers a commendable stability around the corners due to low centre of gravity and mass centralization. Yamaha SZ has been assisted with a 14 liter fuel tank and weighs 134kgs. The instrument cluster has been revised but it still shows analogue readings and comprises of a speedometer, tachometer, odometer and fuel gauge.
Yamaha SZ-S and SZ-RR are powered by a 153cc, air-cooled, SOHC, 2-valve engine that comes mated to a five-speed constant mesh gearbox. It churns out a net power of 11.9bhp at 7,500rpm with a maximum torque of 12.8Nm at 4,500rpm. The BS26 carburetor mill has a compression ratio of 9.5:1 with a bore x stroke ratio of 58mm x 57.9mm. With this configuration, the bike sprints from 0 to 60kmph in 5.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 105kmph.
On the other hand, Yamaha SZ-RR Version 2.0 houses a 149cc, four-stroke, air-cooled engine that has been paired with a five-speed constant mesh transmission. It develops a peak power of 11.9bhp at 7,500rpm with a maximum torque of 12.8Nm at 6,000rpm. The engine has been further blessed with Yamaha's Blue Core engine technology that ensures a superior combustion and cooling efficiency besides an improved fuel economy.
Yamaha SZ runs on 2.75-17M/C 41P front and 100/90-17M/C 55P rear tubeless tyres mounted over stylish black alloy wheels. The bike comes to a standstill with the help of 245mm hydraulic disc brake at the front and 130mm drum brake at the rear. To avail a comfortable and stress free ride, the manufacturer has equipped the bike with reliable telescopic forks upfront and spring loaded hydraulic twin shock absorbers at the rear.
Yamaha SZ has been assisted with a powerful 245mm disc brake at the front that offers a good bite and a commendable stopping power. It has a luminous and bright 12V-35/35W headlight at the front that delivers a steady beam of light even under low rpm conditions. The twin rear view mirrors alerts the rider of his surroundings and hence prevents any mishap. The tubeless tyres offer a superior grip and do not deflate suddenly in case of a puncture. These bunch of features make a bike a safe and worthy companion for daily commuting as well as long journeys.

In honor of all things SAFARI at Prois this month, we'd like to go a little more in depth about one of our favorite shirts, the Sojourn Safari Hoodie. Not only is it the perfect addition to your duffel when heading to the Dark Continent, this hoodie is also fantastic for activities such as hiking or preseason scouting trips. Let's touch base on the properties that make the Sojourn so heavenly:
1. Polyester/spandex fabric. Known for being extremely durable, quick to dry, and moisture wicking. These fabrics are very pliable and resilient, making them perfectly capable of withstanding the strenuous activity of a hunter's lifestyle.
2. Antimicrobial properties. These help to destroy and inhibit the growth of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. Bacteria and fungi cause odor, and odor is down right bad for hunting… What more can we say?
3. UV Protection. A tighter weave makes it more difficult for sun to pass through the fabric, which makes the Sojourn hoodie the perfect garment for spending an extended amount of time in the outdoors.
4. The power of the hood. Let's face it, a hood makes anyone feel more powerful. It also offers protection from sun and wind.
5. SALE SALE SALE!!! The Sojourn hoodie is… wait for it… on sale for $65.00 through the month of June, so you better strike while the iron's hot!

Under the right circumstances, the photos look very good. Those include shooting at sensitivity settings of ISO 200 or lower, in bright sunlight. Thanks to the fast continuous shooting, solid stabilization and reliable center-point focus, the H9 delivered the best results I've had so far shooting dogs in the park. The EVF updates quickly enough to make it possible. The automatic white balance does a solid job, if a bit cool, and colors look bright and saturated.
As with other megazoom lenses, however, the Sony's displays some distortion and chromatic aberration (edge discoloration) on the sides of the photo, as well as purple fringing on high-contrast edges. In general, the Canon PowerShot S5 IS exhibits better sharpness both in the center and from side-to-side. As for shots at medium-to-high sensitivities, I suggest you avoid them. Despite boasting support for up to ISO 3200, The jump between ISO 200 and ISO 400 reveals serious detail loss and notable increase in artifacts. Though it produces better noise measurements than the S5 at the higher ISO settings, the Sony has more apparent image degradation.
For movie capture, Sony makes a slightly better trade-off than most between file size and movie quality. Though they're not quite as sharp, its 30fps VGA MPEG movies require about 1.3MB/sec of storage--far less than the Canon's 2MB/sec M-JPEG recordings. One disappointment here is the tiny microphone that records muted audio.
If you shoot primarily outdoors in daytime--especially sports, children and animals--and don't find the interface quite as crazy-making as I do, the H9 is a great choice. The approximately $100 difference in street prices between the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H7 and DSC-H9 makes your choice simple: if you can forgo the infrared and the flexible LCD, then buy the cheaper model.

Digitisation is having far-reaching consequences for the way in which products of all kinds can be produced, reproduced, marketed and distributed to large audiences across the world.
Digitisation has thrown the music industry into turmoil, although other industries are experiencing similar disruption. At the same time, digitisation has made it possible for agile start-ups to reach large audiences cheaply and quickly.
How should businesses react when their industries are faced with digitisation? What should their response be to competition from new, leaner rivals? How can large enterprises adapt effectively to the digital world? What will 3D printing mean for industry?
Three experts from the world of business look at the challenges and opportunities presented by digitisation.
Near term
Phil Jones, managing director, Brother UK
When I talk to businesses that are looking at the challenges and opportunities presented by digitisation, my initial advice is not to have their heads in the sand. Be aware of what's coming and how it affects your business, your customers and competitors.
At Brother, we have been making printers for decades and digitisation means that things that used to exist on paper are shifting to screens, plus the requirement to process information is more dynamic.
Clearly this represents a challenge to a business like ours. But it represents opportunity, too.
Be aware of what's coming and how it affects your business, your customers and competitors We have to use our expertise, ingenuity and creativity to identify new products and services: webconferencing products, scanning products, mobile printers, augmented reality glasses and anywhere print applications.
Digitisation presents amazing opportunities. We decided to give an iPad to everybody who works remotely for us. The initial investment has speedily repaid itself many times over as our people tell us of new smarter ways of working that enable them to be more efficient, resulting in more face-to-face conversations with customers.
It's not yet time to pack away your printer. But it's important to better understand the cost of processes, how people in your organisation and your customers prefer to digest information, how you can improve workflow through digitising where required and how you can refine working practice.
Mid term
Ben Perreau, entrepreneur, founder of Gigulate and Synkio
Digitisation allows businesses to move a lot more quickly, by removing a great deal of the friction inherent in the processes of manufacture and distribution of physical products.
In the field of music, the business model used to require making records or CDs, then distributing them through a global network of wholesale and retail. Now, thanks to digitisation, artists can reach worldwide audiences directly and instantaneously. That's partly about the digitisation of the music itself, but it also reflects the speed at which information about those artists can travel.
Digitisation has destroyed the music industry's old business model. There has been a massive shift in the balance of power away from the record companies and retail chains towards the likes of Amazon, Spotify and iTunes, as well as back into the hands of the artists and their managers.
Digitisation allows businesses to move a lot more quickly But at the same time, digitisation has provided an opportunity for record companies and others in the music business to think about their role in a world that is now almost entirely digital. What is their business and value proposition? How can they rebuild and restructure their businesses into something that makes sense today?
These are the questions that many businesses – not just the music industry – are going to have to ask and answer.
Long term
Dave Peters, head of strategic development, Brother UK
While digitisation has had far-reaching effects across business, there are some sectors and firms who experience it differently because their products are inherently physical.
But these businesses have their own challenges. In the past few years 3D printing has become a commercial reality. Before long, we could be in a world in which everybody who wants one can have access to a sophisticated 3D printer capable of delivering complex physical products.
We could see, for example, a new form of DIY component manufacture, where a plastic filter for a washing machine could be created from a design downloaded online. It is clear that there are enormous implications for companies whose businesses have been built around industrial processes.
Before long, everybody who wants one could have access to a sophisticated 3D printer capable of delivering complex physical products What is the future for their factories and supply chains? Will businesses on the other side of the globe be able to compete with them on equal terms?
The value that they are able to create will depend much more on the process of design and development of products and they will need to focus their attention on the intellectual property inherent in these ideas.
My advice to businesses is to start with the value proposition. What role can you play in the world of your audience? What is it about the design of your products that makes them unique and valuable? That is what you need to build your business around. Even businesses for whom digitisation may seem a distant threat should be thinking and talking about their place in future markets.
In 2000, Americans bought nearly a billion CDs; last year the figure had fallen to around 200 million thanks to digitisation. But it's not just the music industry that has felt the digitisation effect. Gradually, however, it seems that business is learning from the mistakes made by the likes of record companies and retailers who were too slow to understand the significance of digitisation and react to it.
Forward-thinking companies are already looking at their businesses from the ground up, determining what their core purpose is and how technology can enhance that. For many, this will mean painful change. It also means that, unburdened by the conventional wisdom of the past, start-ups can offer important lessons to incumbents, if they are ready to learn.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Partisan disagreements in the Senate will delay passage of legislation responding to the Gulf oil spill until at least September, when Congress returns from its summer recess.
The House is scheduled to vote on its bill Friday but will be out of town by the time the Senate takes up its version next week - meaning Congress would have to wait to reconcile the differences.
he Senate might not have the 60 votes needed to advance the Democrats' energy and oil spill legislation, anyway. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky has criticized it.
On Thursday, Senate Democrats slammed Republicans for opposing their provision eliminating the $75 million cap on economic liability from an oil spill. McConnell pitched an alternative that he said wouldn't put small independent oil producers out of business.

text: A bank's net interest margin is the difference between its average yield on loans and investments and the average cost for deposits and borrowings. Most regional banks are seeing net interest margins narrow, because they have already seen most of savings on funding costs, as he Federal Reserve has kept its short-term federal funds rate in a target range of between zero and 0.25% since late 2008, while the central bank last month announced it was increasing its purchases of long-term mortgage-backed securities by $40 billion a month, in an effort to keep long-term rates at historically low levels. Jefferies analyst Ken Usdin predicted before the market open that Regions Financial's net interest margin decline would "be seen as disappointing given that the company had guided to stable NIM and flattish net interest income for the back half of the year." The company's net interest declined significantly, to $817 million in the third quarter, from $838 million in the second quarter, and $850 million, in last year's third quarter. Guggenheim analyst Marty Mosby points out that Regions did see its net interest margin increase from 3.04% in the third quarter of2011, and also says that "their margin compressed because last quarter was higher than it should have been," because of recoveries on problem loans. Mosby adds that "earnings from operations increased by 10% from last quarter, which reflects over 80 cents in annualized earnings power." The analyst sees a buying opportunity for investors right now, because "tangible book value that grew 5% and now exceeds seven dollars," and the company's "earnings power can easily justify an $8 stock price." Shares of Regions Financial have now returned 53% year-to-date, following a 38% decline during 2011. The shares for 0.9 times their reported Sept. 30 tangible book value of $7.02, and for eight times the consensus 2013 EPS estimate of 80 cents.

I haven't seen it for years, but I'd like to get it on DVD. I remember thinking at the time that it was a lot like the early 80s comedy "Not the Nine O'Clock News" right down to the three-guys/one-girl format. Some of the content was a bit "post-watershed" There was one scene with a topless woman and it cut back to Geoffrey Perkins who said "hmmm... I'd like to have seen a bit more of that." Philip Pope, who was previously with Angus Deayton in spoof group the Hee Bee Gee Bees, went on to success in shows like "Only Fools and Horses", Deayton in "One Foot in the Grave" and Perkins is now a successful producer. Martin Fenton-Stevens has appeared in several commercials Helen Atkinson-Wood seems to have disappeared without trace.
Time for re-runs on a cable channel, I think.

Confederation Suburban Centre is a community in the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, which consists primarily of commercial development.
Confederation Suburban Centre contains Confederation Park Mall, Cosmo Civic Centre, Plaza 22, Carlyle King Library, Fairhaven Bowl and The Real Canadian Superstore. Confederation Suburban Centre has a straight northern boundary that does not follow any roadway, but follows along the edge of the Massey Place Neighborhood around and about Milton Street and a southernmost tip at 11th Street East. It has an eastern boundary along Circle Drive. The western boundary is Diefenbaker Drive between 22nd Street and extends north from here to about Milton Street. The western boundary on the southern portion of 22nd Street encompasses Confederation Inn, and all retail sectors which are east of Fairmount Drive, and north of Fairlight Drive. The western boundary continues along the course of Circle Drive until 11th Street taking in the SGI complex, the Jehovah Witness Hall and the Baseball Diamonds and some of W.A. Reid Park.
Planning for a suburban centre near the intersection of what was then 22nd Street and Dundonald Avenue (Dundonald later became Circle Drive) was underway by the spring of 1966.[2] At that time, the area was to be called the Dundonald Suburban Centre, and would have been located east of Dundonald Avenue/Circle Drive, north of 22nd Street and south of 29th Street (an area now part of the Mount Royal residential community).[3]
Most of the amenities were constructed between 1970 and 1990. The area was designated a Suburban Centre in the 1980s; prior to this the portion north of 22nd Street was considered part of the Confederation Park community and the area to the south part of Fairhaven.
This area comprises mainly non residential development between the neighboring communities. It makes use of land area on the west side of the major interchange between 22nd Street and Circle Drive.
Shopping Malls[edit]
The Confederation Suburban Center contains 400 operating businesses which is 8% of Saskatoon's retail sector[4]
Confederation Mall[edit]
Plaza 22[edit]

BPA Health Concerns continued...
"Many researchers have reported exposure to bisphenol A from the diet," Teeguarden tells WebMD. "The real question is and always has been, 'Do we get enough of the bioactive form of the chemical in the blood to cause adverse effects?'"
Blood and urine samples from 20 adult volunteers were collected hourly during the day and several times at night over 24 hours. Over the course of the study day, the participants ate three meals made from canned foods with linings that contained BPA.
As a result, the average consumption of BPA was estimated to be 21% higher than the average for 95% of adults in the United States.
Despite the high exposure, levels of bioactive BPA in the blood were undetectable in the samples, Teeguarden says.
Independent analysis of the samples by the CDC and the FDA's National Center for Toxicological Research confirmed the findings.
In the CDC analysis, bioactive BPA was below the limit of detection in all 320 analyzed blood samples.
Impact of BPA on Children Unknown
The CDC's Calafat says the finding that blood levels of bioactive BPA are much lower than urine levels is not a big surprise.
"Based on the properties of BPA we would expect to see this," she says.
The study appears in the September issue of the Journal of Toxicological Sciences.
In a news release, the industry trade group North American Metal Packaging Alliance called the research a "landmark study" providing "definitive evidence that adverse health effects from bisphenol A are highly unlikely."
Sonya Lunder, who is a senior analyst with the research and advocacy organization Environmental Working Group, says although the findings are somewhat reassuring for adults, the study did not address the safety of BPA exposure in developing fetuses, babies, and children.
"Ninety-five percent of Americans have measurable BPA in their urine on any given day," she tells WebMD. "A longstanding concern has been that children, infants, and developing fetuses may have no ability or very limited ability to metabolize this chemical the way adults do."
Calafat says a host of studies funded by a $14 million grant from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act should shed new light on the safety or harms of BPA exposure in adults and children within the next year or so.

my grandpa passes on and we feel he made the will under duress because his wife had passed away a few months after the will was done.
Business Attorney
There are specific legal standards that you must meet in order to demonstrate that a will was made as a result of "undue influence" or "incapacity." Those are the terms courts generally use, as opposed to "duress." These are distinct issues, but from your brief case description I can't determine which, if either, apply to your case.
Generally you have three months from the time the will is admitted for probate to file a contest. This is only meant as general information as I am not familiar with the particulars of your case. I would suggest that you contact an attorney immediately to determine if you have a case and when you must bring it.
Best of luck to you.

Comments about Nashua Handknits Creative Focus Worsted:
I absolutely love this yarn! I bought several skeins for Xmas scarves and liked it so much I bought enough for a sweater. It knits up beautifully and comes in the loveliest colors. I've noticed that several of the shades, such as 'Juniper' don't seem to be available anywhere anymore. I hope this yarn is not being discontinued. I know that some knitters don't enjoy the single ply yarns saying they tend to split. I think the right needle makes all the difference. Bamboo worked well for me but...better still are the Addi Skacel Turbo Lace needles with the brass tips. Whew! They're fast as lightning and slip around the single ply without splitting. Fabulous!

lovely gloss but difficult yarn
from Undisclosed
the yarn comes in lovely colors with a wonderful gloss/sheen to it but the texture is slightly fuzzy and it splits while working.I liked the natural color very much...it is like a beautiful golden but not the yarn.

A dying storm at sunset

Casa Grande, AZ (Current Weather Conditions)
Caption: Took this last night just north of Casa Grande along Interstate 10. Was part of a timelapse...capturing the lightning strike was pure luck as the exposure at this point was 1/1000th of a second every 4 seconds! Beautiful sunset. See the timelapse link below!
Image Description: A lightning bolt strikes around sunset as this monsoon storm begins to die out.
