Présentation de l'éditeur
Every day, we evaluate the people around us: It's one of the most important things we ever do. Making Sense of People provides the scientific frameworks and tools we need to improve our intuition, and assess people more consciously, systematically, and effectively.
Leading neuroscientist Samuel H. Barondes explains the research behind each standard personality category: extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness. He shows readers how to use these traits and assessments to do a better job of deciding who they'll enjoy spending time with, whom to trust, and whom to keep at a distance. Barondes explains:
- What neuroscience and psychological research can tell us about how personality types develop and cohere.
- The intertwined roles of genes, nurture, and education in personality development.
- How to recognize troublesome personality patterns such as narcissism, sociopathy, and paranoia.
- How much a child's behavior predicts their adult personality, and how personality stabilizes in young adulthood.
- How to assess integrity, fairness, wisdom, and other traits related to morality.
- What genetic testing may (or may not) teach us about personality in the future.
- General strategies for getting along with people, with specific tactics for special circumstances.
Kirkus Reviews
A succinct look at personality psychology.
As a psychiatrist and neuroscientist at the University of California, Barondes (Molecules and Mental Illness, 2007, etc.) has spent years studying human behavior, and this book reflects his systematic, scientific approach for personality assessment. The average person isn't likely to have time to research a difficult boss or potential love interest, but the author supplements intuition with a useful cornerstone for gauging human behavior: a table of the "Big Five" personality traits, among them Extraversion vs. Introversion and Agreeableness vs. Antagonism. To learn how to apply the Big Five, Barondes supplies a link for a professional online personality test, in addition to a basic introduction of troubling personality patterns–e.g., narcissism and compulsiveness. While genetics may play a heavy hand in influencing personality, Barondes writes, it's awareness of a person's background, character and life story that is paramount in unearthing reasons for adult behavior. Readers might like to see the author weave more everyday examples into the text–his exercise in fostering compassion by imagining an adult as a 10-year-old child is a gem–but there is plenty here to ponder.
Those looking for traditional "self-help" advice won't find it here, but this book clearly lays the groundwork for deeper human interaction and better life relationships.
Quatrième de couverture
"This pioneering book does for our mental life what the periodic table did for chemistry; it breaks the mind down into elementary constituents and their interactions--thereby transforming personality research into science. In addition to being a rich treasure-trove of insights into human nature, it can potentially enrich your relationships with people. Barondes has written a masterpiece."
--V.S. Ramachandran, author of Phantoms in the Brain and The Tell-Tale Mind
"We're a fantastically social species, constantly taking the measure of everyone's personality. In this wise, enjoyable book, the esteemed biological psychiatrist Sam Barondes considers ways to build up this vital skill. The book is clear, entertaining, and educational, and will not only make you a more adept social primate, but a more self-reflective one as well."
--Robert Sapolsky, Professor of Biology, Stanford University; author of A Primate's Memoir and Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers
"Making Sense of People is a marvelous guided tour through the infinitely variable landscape of personality. Barondes truly illuminates how genes and environment shape human behavior, and he tells the story with an engaging armchair style that makes the book hard to put down!"
--John Oldham, President, American Psychiatric Association; author of The New Personality Self-Portrait
"Human beings judge personalities every day, but often in an unconscious muddle. Sam Barondes has taken a daunting research literature on personality and has made it remarkably accessible as well as useful. I suspect that many psychiatrists will find this book as valuable as lay readers will."
--Steven E. Hyman, Professor of Neurobiology and Provost, Harvard University; former Director, National Institute of Mental Health
"In Making Sense of People, Sam Barondes, a superb teacher and writer, creates his own schema to help us better understand each other and make the right decisions about who to share our lives with. A highly readable and enjoyable introduction to the psychology of everyday life."
--Eric Kandel, University Professor, Columbia University; Nobel Laureate; author of In Search of Memory
What really bothers you about your boss--or your daughter's boyfriend? Could the person you're dating really become your life partner? Can you really rely on your intuition about people? This book will help you find out.
Drawing on extensive research, renowned psychiatrist and neuroscientist Samuel Barondes gives you powerful, easy-to-use tools for understanding what people are really like and how they got to be the way they are. These tools will provide you with a system for assessing the person's traits, character, and sense of identity, and then putting these elements together into a unified picture. Learning to think of people in this way will help you choose more satisfying relationships, recognize telltale signs of dysfunction and danger, and savor the complexity and uniqueness of everyone you meet.
Supplement your intuition!
• Learn a system for understanding anyone
• Identify character strengths and weaknesses
• Make better decisions about whom to seek out and whom to avoid
• Find out how all personalities are shaped by two great chance events:
the set of genes we happen to be born with, and the particular world
we happen to grow up in

Healthcare, Regulatory and Reimbursement Landscape – Colombia
Colombia and the US Improve Trade Relations, Opening Opportunities for both Healthcare Markets
The new report* states that the approval of the recent Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between the US and Colombia in 2012, which allows goods to be traded without import tariffs needing to be paid, will bolster pharmaceutical imports and exports between both countries.
Estimated at US$3.3 billion in 2010, Colombia boasts the fourth largest pharmaceutical market in Latin America, following Mexico, Brazil and Argentina, and is projected to grow to US$9.2 billion by 2020. Colombia has the third largest population in Latin America, and so healthcare demand is significant.
The medical device market of Colombia is mainly dependent on imports, but the local medical industry also manufactures surgical instruments and apparatus, medical supplies of plastic and rubber, and medical, surgical, dental and veterinary furniture. Venezuela and Ecuador currently count as major export destinations for these supplies, but this new trade deal opens Colombia up to a potential new consumer with vast finances invested in its national healthcare program.
For Sample Pages, please click or add the below link to your browser:
The Colombian government also created a single universal health coverage plan in 2012, following one of the most extensive reforms of a national healthcare system in Latin America during the 1990s which greatly extended healthcare coverage across the population. Various government policies are now being undertaken to curb the rise of various diseases, including HIV/AIDS, malaria and dengue fever, and the FTA will now allow healthcare professionals to import vaccines from the US.
This report provides information on the healthcare, regulatory, and reimbursement landscape of Colombia, and gives an overview of the pharmaceutical and medical device markets, including size, segmentation, and key drivers and barriers.
This report was built using data and information sourced from proprietary databases, primary and secondary research, and in-house analysis conducted by GlobalData's team of industry experts.

I had a nice "Taurus-Be-Gone" day today. First, I sold the PT145 to the place where I was picking up my new M&P 45 Compact (), then applied the money toward the M&P.
Next, the TCP that was sent back for a broken trigger had made it back to Gander Mountain yesterday. So when I went over, instead of taking it home, I sold it to them. Yes, I took it in the shorts like I knew I would. No, I won't give details about how bad it was.
So two buying mistakes have now been reversed. I'm happy.
But a couple of notes:
When I checked out the TCP, there was a summary of what they had done; adjusting a spring, replacing whatever-it-was, etc... But the trigger still had that cheap "sproingggg!" sound and feel to it. Good riddance.
I got into a conversation with the guy while we were waiting for my money on the TCP sale. I explained the magazine stupidity with the PT145. So we popped out the mag that was in the new one behind the case. Next we compared it side by side with a factory replacement mag from the shelf. Guess what? Whooda thunk it? They're still selling the PT145 with the WRONG mags! Good riddance.
So anyway, I'm happy to be rid of them both.

Feds Broach Standards for U.S. Smart Grid
Laying the groundwork for a U.S. smart grid system that allows for the increased use of renewable energy sources, the U.S. Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released a report that identifies issues and priorities for developing technical standards and an architecture for a U.S. Smart Grid.
NIST will use the report to draft the NIST Smart Grid Interoperability Standards Framework. The document will describe a high-level architecture, identify an initial set of key standards, and provide a roadmap for developing new or revised standards. Release 1.0 of the framework should be available in September.
In May, The U.S. Departments of Energy and Commerce announced the first set of standards that are needed to drive the development of a smart power grid.
The nearly 300-page report, developed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), is part of the first phase of NIST's three-phase plan, announced in April to expedite the development of smart grid standards. The standards body will accept public comments on the report for 30 days after the publication of a notice in the Federal Register.
EPRI's report includes recommendations from a variety of smart grid stakeholders, including technical contributions from two EPRI-sponsored, two-day, public workshops. The report also incorporates contributions from six expert working groups established by NIST in 2008, and a cybersecurity coordination task group established in 2009.
A third public EPRI-sponsored Smart Grid interoperability-standards workshop will be held in early August to discuss unaddressed, high-priority needs identified in the draft standards roadmap. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) will determine whether sufficient consensus has been reached to implement final standards and protocols necessary for Smart Grid functionality and interoperability.

AbstractABSTRACT: MaXentric and the University of California propose using AlGaN/GaN HEMT devices, quasi-optical combining with meta-materials, and linearization techniques. MaXentrics millimeter wave electronics focus on a new and promising architecture called meta-material in a tiled or tray active array amplifier. Our approach borrows heavily from previously advanced quasi-optics concepts, which recognized and exploited the inherent advantages of free-space power combining as compared to traditional, planar power combining methods. Intrinsically three-dimensional, the tiled or tray active array amplifier relies on tunable, TEM waveguide structures enabled by engineered two and three dimensional metal-dielectric structures configured at meta-materials. BENEFIT: For unmanned systems, video data constitutes the only"eyes-in-the-sky"and thus the only link that a ground crew may have with what is actually going on in the vicinity of an unmanned air vehicle. A ground crew hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away, the video data link becomes absolutely critical to the safety and success of the mission. The W-Band Transmitter will solve these problems and meet the market needs. The W-Band transmitter is uniquely suited for higher bandwidth communication for multi-senor video streams and more complex command and controls.The 2012 budget for UAV predator and reaper modifications is approximately $325 million and from $475 million to $550 million for each remaining year of this decade. It is anticipated that a portion of these budgeted funds will be for SATCOM communication with the new WGS satellites, thus incorporating new W-Band transmitter into preexisting UAVs.

CBS has canceled "CSI: Miami" after 10 seasons, meaning David Caruso has pulled off his last pair of sunglasses.
There will still be two "CSI" shows on the network next season, though, as "CSI: NY," the youngest member of the franchise, will return alongside the original series.
"'CSI: Miami' leaves an amazing television legacy — a signature look and style, global popularity and as a key player in CBS' rise to the top over the past decade," the network says in a statement. "We thank all the producers — led by Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman and Ann Donahue — and its talented cast, led by David Caruso, for 10 outstanding seasons. Viewers around the world will continue to enjoy rebroadcasts of 'CSI: Miami' in syndication and on key digital platforms for many years to come."
Going into this week's upfronts, the odds favored CBS canceling one of the two "CSI" spinoffs — neither "Miami" nor "NY" were among the 18 shows that were renewed back in March. "Miami" had somewhat better ratings this season, but because it's two years older than "NY," it was also more expensive to produce.
CBS will announce its schedule for 2012-13 on Wednesday (May 16).
What do you think of the decision? Did CBS keep the right two "CSI"s?

Virginia Tech has tough tests upcoming
PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- Virginia Tech is going to find out over the next month whether it can walk away from its final Big East season with a title.
The fourth-ranked Hokies (5-0, 1-0) tuned up for the heart of their conference schedule with an impressive 48-22 win over Rutgers on Saturday.
On the horizon for Virginia Tech are Syracuse, West Virginia, Miami and Pittsburgh, which all beat the Hokies last season.
"We've got some teams that knocked us off last year," Hokies quarterback Bryan Randall said. "But we're a different team this year."
Actually Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer said the Hokies can vary from quarter to quarter, something they can't afford to do against Syracuse.
In the last two games, Virginia Tech showed the ability to score quickly. They also showed lapses, like Saturday when they gave up two fourth-quarter touchdowns to Rutgers (3-2, 0-1) in an 18-second span.
"Sometimes we do things as good as we have ever done them at Virginia Tech," Beamer said. "At other times, I scratch my head a little bit. The good part is if you can do it one time, you can do it every time."
After turning the ball over on the first punt of the game, the Hokies mounted scoring drives of 81, 53, 63 and 58 yards on its next four possessions. The combined drives needed only 22 plays and covered roughly eight minutes.
"When we're on, it's clicking. It's tough to stop us," said senior receiver Chris Shreve, who caught touchdown passes of 28 and 45 yards in his first start. "We just need to smooth it out so we are doing it all the time."
Randall was outstanding in running the show. He was 16-for-22 for 250 yards and four touchdowns, with the other two TDs going to Mike Imoh.
"I thought he was good in every way," Beamer said of Randall. "He was steady as a rock."
Kevin Jones also ran for 118 yards and a touchdown for the Hokies, who will join the ACC next season along with Miami.
The Hokies also intercepted Rutgers quarterback Ryan Hart four times, with safety Jimmy Williams scoring on a 55-yard return in the closing seconds of the first half.
Rutgers isn't going to miss playing them after being outscored 182-36 in the last four games.
"They've got playmakers on that team," linebacker William Beckford said after the Scarlet Knights lost their 23rd straight game in the conference. "This is a learning experience for us. We can't lower our heads and just say they beat us. That's a great team and we have to learn from it."
Rutgers came into this game looking for its first 4-1 start since 1991, and to show critics it was ready to take a step toward its first winning season since 1992.
Virginia Tech linebacker Jonathan Lewis thought Rutgers had improved over last year.
"They're running to the ball and sticking to their game plan instead of scurrying around and doing other things," Lewis said. "That's made them a lot better and it's going to make them a tougher team down the road."
Rutgers will play at West Virginia on Saturday.

By Maj. Michael Ozols, 412th Contracting Support BrigadeSeptember 13, 2013
JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas (Sept. 13, 2013) -- Members of the 412th Contracting Support Brigade and Mission and Installation Contracting Command-Fort Sam Houston took part in the first San Antonio 110 9/11 Memorial Climb to the top of the Tower of the Americas Sept. 11 in San Antonio.
They joined firefighters, law enforcement and members of the community to honor the first responders and victims of the attacks that took place Sept. 11, 2001.
The inaugural memorial and climb to the top of the Tower of the Americas honored the 343 firefighters, more than 60 law enforcement officers and civilians who were killed that day. The climb to the top consisted of 910 stairs, and participants were asked to go to the top of the tower twice, surpassing the 110 floors and height of the World Trade Center Twin Towers. Each firefighter, law enforcement and military participant was asked to carry the name of a first responder who died in the towers. A bell was rung for them and their name was placed on a replica tower at the top of the Tower of the Americas at the end of the second climb.
The eight participants from the 412th CSB and MICC-Fort Sam Houston, and the name of the first responder who died in the towers whom they represented included Lt. Col. Sylvia Farmer (Capt. Vernon Richard, Ladder 7), Command Sgt. Maj. Jesse Hammond (James Riches, Engine 4), Maj. Manuel Prado (Lt. Michael Russo, S.O.), Maj. Michael Ozols (Joseph Rivelli Jr., Ladder 25), Capt. Francisco Cordero (Stephen Russell, Engine 55), Sgt. 1st Class Kevin Carter (Lt. Robert Regan, Ladder 118), Staff Sgt. Brian Roussel (Kevin Reilly, Engine 207), and Lysette Sanchez. Sanchez, a Department of the Amy civilian for the 412th CSB, wanted to participate after hearing about the climb through an e-mail. Sanchez had previously climbed the tower to raise money to fight Cystic Fibrosis.
The Tower of the Americas is a 750-foot observation tower and restaurant on the southeastern side of downtown San Antonio. The tower was built in 1968 and, until 1996, was the tallest observation tower in the United States. It is currently the tallest building in San Antonio and the 27th tallest building in Texas. The tower is a total of 65 flights, or 910 individual stairs.
Roussel, a member of the 607th Senior Contingency Contracting Team at MICC-Fort Sam Houston, is a native New Yorker and volunteer firefighter. He knows firsthand the sacrifices that first responders have to make during an emergency situation.
"I was honored to be able to participate in this amazing event and carry with me the name of a fallen firefighter," Roussel said. "Sept. 11, 2001, changed my life forever, and the bravery those first responders showed that day is what inspired me to enter the military. I will never forget, and I hope I honor their memories with my service."
Participants from the 412th CSB and MICC-Fort Sam Houston were accompanied by more than 600 participants at the event to honor the memory of the men and women who sacrificed their lives during the attacks 12 years ago.

XXL 2010 Freshman cover-star Nipsey Hussle and ex-manager Eugene Henley were reportedly involved in a shooting in L.A. on Friday. What began as a physical altercation between the two ended up with shots being fired in the air by Hussle's brother, Samiel Ashghedom, witnesses say. Police then shot at Samiel, but did not hit him. All three were arrested, with no injuries.

If Nipsey made tracks with stories that interesting I probably would be listening to a lot more Nipsey Hussle. As it is, of course things can get out of hand before someone knows it, but a lot of these MC's need to start acting like they have something to lose.

Skip to comments.EDITORIAL: The New Gay Army on parade--Pentagon promotes rigged 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' report
Posted on 12/01/2010 4:57:24 PM PST by jazusamo
The Pentagon on Tuesday released a long-awaited report intended to advance a key campaign promise made by then-Sen. Obama to the fringe activist groups that supported his presidential aspirations. Now as commander in chief, President Obama has made it clear to military brass that he expects them to embrace the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered) agenda. It should come as no surprise that the release of the military's new "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" survey was carefully orchestrated to accomplish this mission.
From the outset, the Pentagon had no interest in eliciting honest responses from the troops about whether the law outlawing homosexual conduct in the ranks should be preserved or repealed. Instead, soldiers, airmen, sailors and Marines were addressed in terms implying that repeal is inevitable. The Obama administration leaked selected results to sympathetic media to create the illusion that the troops have no problem stacking the barracks and submarines with homosexuals. The final report's release is a last-ditch effort to provide Democratic members of Congress the cover they need to ram through the law's repeal in the lame-duck session.
It isn't going to work. A closer examination of the headline result shows that 63 percent of respondents live off-base or in civilian housing and consequently answered that a change in policy might not affect them. Those in combat roles - where unit cohesion and trust are life-and-death concerns - gave a different response. About half with combat experience said a change would have a negative or very negative impact in the field or at sea...
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtontimes.com ...
They will destroy the military for a pat on the back from Obama.
Gates is despicable. I saw him making the comment that "the American people have spoken." Grinning like a fool. I have no respect for that man.
They are bureaucrats doing their masters bidding. They want to use the Armed Forces for social engineering. That is not why it's there.
Gates and Mullen are to blame for going along with Obama and his thugs on this program of deceit. They are both despicable for not resisting and resigning if that was the only way to resist.
"There is no compelling reason to do this." (Elaine Donnelly, president of the Center for Military Readiness)
Except if the CIC wants to have...
"...hundreds of thousands of troops who, according to the results, would begin planning their exit from the military if the policy were changed."
So, because we know the CIC does not really care about the gay lobby, and this is the only supporting action he has taken for them, then the reason must be the destruction of the greatest military on earth. Agreed?
I understand and agree though it's so disappointing, especially now that we've had an all volunteer military for years. I'm sure that's one of the reasons Zer0 and his bunch want this, to degrade our fine military.
Will they be able to "march" in parade with their twisting arms over their heads and their twisting legs going in the opposite direction?
Kinda reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25Qhbdijv5Y
Very sad indeed. My son went into the military under Reagan, reenlisted and then left once Clinton got into gear and tried to make the military into a bastion of affirmative action and stupid progressivism. In those days, btw, the favored affirmative action group was females (of any color).
My son said that the people who didn't leave under Clinton (or who joined under Clinton) were essentially either those who agreed with this stuff or didn't even want to think about it, or those who had a lot of years and didn't want to surrender their pensions.
The latter group is gone, but I suspect that there are many from the Clinton era who are now in command positions and are probably just fine with this.
Gates highlighted the recommendations of the report putting a strong emphasis on education, training and leader development, with a solid road map for a successful full implementation of repeal, assuming that the military is given sufficient time and preparation to get the job done right.
The "EDUCATION" part is going to be the part that will be amazing! The soldier will now be "educated" in the "benefits" of being a homo. If a soldier has any moral beliefs relating to homosexuality he will be warned to not speak them so as not to "offend" the Rump Rangers.
Bottom line: The Rump Rangers "morality" will override everyone elses moral code in the name of political correctness.
Picture the Village People singing Y..M..C..A..
So what's the problem? Give them their own unit and put them on the front lines. Bring back the draft for gays and lesbians.
Political correctness may very well destroy our great nation, it's gotten a foothold that will be extremely hard to eliminate.
I like the way you think, grandma...
He appointed at least one gay Supreme Court Justice.
No kidding, we could put an end to this pro-longed controversy real quick by advocating a draft of all gays and lesbians and put them in their own units and put them in harm's way. Problem solved.
I have done the same and I am sad that my families strong tradition of military service will come to an end because of thie act. Four of us have retired from the Military with over 105 years of total service just among the four of us. I have advised a nephew and my daughter not to join.
The gays who can be trusted are perfectly comfortable with "don't ask, don't tell". I would imagine their closest friends know, but they don't need to shove their lifestyle in the faces of casual acquaintances.
I believe you said it well and I have no doubt that's correct.
Only one problem - they plan to re-institute the draft.
Read the official pentagon's website. It appears clear to me that they are already prepared to implement the repeal of DADT. You can read it for yourselves without my spin.
Gates is a lying SOS. First S is "Sack."
I predict that the minute DADT is repealed and the gays are free to be themselves in the open, there will be no curbs against hitting on straight service people. Any military person who REJECTS the advances of a gay will be deemed guilty of a HATE CRIME.
Sgt. Steve Brick: We've decided that these people work to the best of their ability in their own environment. That's why we've formed a special Gay Brigade.
I'm in the Army, and I'm gay That don't mean I swish and sway, I won't go down on anyone, Uncle Sam is the only one
I used to suggest to young adults who weren't sure what direction they wanted to go, to look into joining the military. Today. I would NEVER tell them that.
Repealing this is a nightmare. I know I am preaching to the choir but......
Statistically the average age of those serving are in their 20's. Gay or straight you have a very high sex drive.
When confined to an installation it is natural to form cliches, usually because of the same likes, hobbies, whatever, something in common. With Gays serving open, they will naturally gravitate to one another because of their common bond. They will become their own group, a group which will be sexually attracted to one another. Just like if you put 6 girls and 6 guys together 24/7 the sexual tensions will naturally happen.
One other point, once this is repealed the next demand will be for gay marriage. The argument will be, they can go to war and die for us and fight for our freedeoms but they can't marry?? They will play that card in a minute!
I've not the slightest doubt you're correct. I also believe that's why the LGBT has been pushing this so hard, it's a huge inroad for them.
The number of friendly fire incidents in war zones will increase by a factor of 10.
The overall effectiveness of the various branches will suffer greatly...with the possible exception of the Air Force where close living is far less.
Example: Imagine yourself in a berthing compartment of a ship at sea...45 racks or so. Then imagine your worry that you picked the wrong rate because the majority of the senior NCOs were homo...along with 8-10 of the rest of the compartment.
After 100 days at sea or so, you're going AWOL at the first civilized port. Maybe any port.
Republicans should solicit a report that asks would it be ok if men and women were berthed together in close quarters situations where they had to share shower facilities and sleeping quarters and lets see how this is any different then allowing the gays to do it.
The psychological impact on the straight people will be a form of sexual harrasement, why do they feel they need to flgrantly display their sexuality?
As it is now with DADT at least straight people can assume that the people they are showering and sleeping with aren't gay even if they are gay because they can't openly state or flaunt their gayness.
Monty Python gives us a glimpse into the future
I don't really know, but do they have separate barracks for the men and the women? Does this mean they will have to have to have a whole new configuration?
1. The MEN
2. The WOMEN
3. gay (men) who like gay (men)
4. gay (men) who think they are (women).
4. gay (women) who like gay (women)
5. gay (women) who think they are (men)
6. The UNSURE
"Drop and give me fifty. NO GODDAMMIT, I meant PUSHUPS!"
"What do you mean we're all out of gun grease???!!!"
"We used to have the greatest military in the world. Now, you people SUCK."
I had the feeling that something like this would happen.
Our largest security risk is in the WH.
May 24, 2010 SPECIAL REPORT from WAYNE MADSEN.
Obama and Emanuel: Members of same gay bath house in Chicago
President Obama and his chief of staff Rahm Emanuel are lifetime members of the same gay bath house in uptown Chicago, according to informed sources in Chicagos gay community, as well as veteran political sources in the city.
The bath house, Mans Country, caters to older white men and it has been in business for some 30 years and is known as one of uptown Chicagos grand old bathhouses. WMR was told by sources who are familiar with the bath house that it provides one-year lifetime memberships to paying customers and that the clubs computerized files and pre-computer paper files, include membership information for both Obama and Emanuel. The data is as anonymized as possible for confidentiality purposes. However, sources close to Mans Country believe the U.S. Secret Service has purged the computer and filing cabinet files of the membership data on Obama and Emanuel.
Members of Mans Country are also issued club identification cards. WMR learned that Obama and Emanuel possessed the ID cards, which were required for entry.
Obama began frequenting Mans Country in the mid-1990s, during the time he transitioned from a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School to his election as an Illinois State Senator in 1996. Emanuel, reportedly joined Mans Country after he left the Clinton White Hosue and moved back to Chicago in 1998, joining the investment firm of Wasserstein Perella and maintaining his membership during his 2002 campaign for the U.S. 5th District House seat vacated by Rod Blagojevich, who was elected governor.
Mans Country appears to be a one stop shopping center for gay men. The clubs website advertises steam rooms, fantasy rooms, bed rooms, male strippers, adult movies, and lockers.
Pictures at the URL site.
The report is faulty, and a lie. I have real fears in regards to what you imply and know there are enough problems with women serving with men without adding this into the mix.
Yep. They have an "Implementation Plan" all ready to go. Clear as day what their intention are. This has been carefully orchastrated from day one.
There will be homosexuals raping straights and other homos. Any bets these abuses won't be covered up by the brass?
Military readiness and efficiency will be affected by love triangles, spurned lovers and sex related violence. All you have to do is look at the way homos conduct themselves on civvy street. Any bets these problems won't be covered up by the brass?
If they approve of open homosexualism they might as well do away with the concept of male only / female only barracks. Homos don't need women and lezzies don't need men, so they will both be bunking right in the middle of their sexual targets.
Only the straights will be sleeping cold.
They were probably the smart ones who had doubts about how "anonymous" and "confidential" their responses would be if they gave other-than-PC answers.
"So, because we know the CIC does not really care about the gay lobby, and this is the only supporting action he has taken for them, then the reason must be the destruction of the greatest military on earth. Agreed?"
The only possible conclusion unless you believe he is stupid enough to think this WON'T destroy the American military. I don't think he is very smart but I don't think he is THAT stupid.
I should have said, "The non-responders were..."
Same sex sexual assaults have skyrocketed in recent years.
It's already happening.
What does "Openly Homosexual" mean anyway? There was "Open Heterosexuality" at Tail Gate. They got drummed out.
homosexuals have favored status as political sex fetish lobbyist donors.
allowing homosexuals in the military is about ENDORSING their sexual fetish behavior. It is no different than requiring a soldier to be allowed to share private quarters with a sheep. (try putting that on a submarine)

Elderly woman makes new drive-through at bank's front door
Germantown - Germantown police responded to a report of a car driving through the front door at BMO Harris Bank, W156 N11150 Pilgrim Road, shortly after 10:30 a.m. Nov. 16.
According to the police log, an 81-year-old Germantown woman who was attempting to park in a parking spot in front of the bank lost control of her vehicle and drove through the front door of the business. The woman told police she thought she may have pressed the gas pedal instead of the brake.
The driver was cited for failure to have control of a vehicle. A damage estimate for the building was unavailable at the time of the report.
Black Friday shoppers trample woman at Walmart
Germantown - A 43-year-old woman called police after she was trampled by numerous customers during the Thanksgiving Day sales event at Walmart.
According to the Germantown police log:
The woman stated she was in the video gaming section of the electronics department to purchase advertised video games at Walmart, W190 N9855 Appleton Ave., shortly after 8 p.m. Thanksgiving Day. When employees started handing out the special sale-priced video games, customers behind her began to trample and push her as they tried to grab the products for themselves.
The woman sustained minor injuries to her right wrist and right ankle and declined medical treatment. She was unable to identify anyone involved in the melee and told police she would be filing an incident report with Walmart management.

We'll be more than fine on the D...
At least as well as I would have done (in the early rounds). I have no complaints.
After seeing some tape on Butler, I would be pretty stoked if he's our pick. He is a pretty amazing cover guy with a serious nose for the football....
Dude, have you seen his girlfriend? I am a UTenn fan, but Tebow is dating a smokin' babe.
I would love to have Boldin, but he's not worth what they would be asking.
I voted for Draft, but I want a legit first-rounder (Nicks,...
Wow. I didn't realize we had drafted so many corners that didn't cut it. We have had less luck at that position (minus our awesome find in Finny)...
To whoever said Scott was the weakest on the line, you obviously never even paid attention to Amano AT ALL.

Logic Works
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the Logic Works. For the cloud computing company, see Logicworks.
Logic Works Inc. was a software company based in Princeton, New Jersey. Their flagship product was an IDEF1X modeling and database design tool called ERwin (ERwin) whose name is formed from an initialism of ER for Entity Relationship and "win", short for windows. The company also produced BPwin (for business process modeling using IDEF0), ModelMart and TestBytes.
The company went public in October 1995 with an IPO of 3.2 million shares at $11, and was traded on the NASDAQ under the symbol LGWX until its eventual sale.[1] In 1998, Logic Works was acquired by Platinum Technology for $174.8 million in stock, which was in turn acquired by Computer Associates the next year.[2]

God has blessed be with such a dear friend
someone who entertains me on the weekend
Lucky I am to have such a unique person to work with
in a cold windowless pit.
A beautiful Libra
Crazy enough to dress up as a zebra
She gets me and my crazyness
Just ask her to paint it on a canvas
She sings like an angel
and looks at the world from different angles
we dance, we laugh, we like to take naps
we also know muay thai so watch your ass
She's my wingman with a tan
and can handle my attention span
I'm glad to have her in my life
any man will be golden to call her his wife

I have sold my mum on E.Bay.
My god my dad was mad.
He can"t believe i did it.
He thinks it"s really bad.
As to why i did it.
There"s reasons plain to see.
My mother is on my back.
Always hassling me.
She complains about my trainers.
She says they really stink.
Moans about the dishes.
That i leave in the sink.
I never make my bed right.
She gets me in a quandary.
States that i should help.
To do the household laundry!
Then every Sunday morning.
She really goes to far.
I have to help my dad.
Wash the family car.
Yes i sold my mum on E.Bay.
Then looked to far off lands.
To find a good replacement.
Post up the wedding bands.
Dad wont be to angry.
I will soon get him on side.
Because i have sent to Thailand.
For a brand new blushing bride.
At first it was ok.
We got on really well.
Then we discovered something.
That i can hardly tell.
I hope we get a refund.
I still have the receipt.
Let me tell you something.
There has been a big deceit.
It started in the bedroom.
I had to get a fan.
To bring my poor old dad round.
Our Thai bride was a man!
I want my mother back.
No matter what the price.
I am fed up eating chicken.
Along with Thailand rice!
"Will you get out of bed,
It is a brand new day,
It is nearly twenty past."
I hear my mother say.
I start to drift awake.
Then i start to beam.
Relief it surge"s through me.
It was a nasty dream.
My mother cant explain.
Why i changed my ways.
I"m really very helpful.
Not like the bad old days.
But if i am really honest.
I suppose i am quite bad.
I have just logged on to E.Bay.
To try and sell my DAD!

Once again, young love has affected the lives of all teenagers, but this time, it's also
affecting the lives of all young interracial young lovebirds. All types of interracial
relationships have been active since the ending of the 1960s and when all of the schools
and other places have been integrated. It seems that two young people (a teen boy and a
teen girl) would rather date someone outside their race than dating the other that's
within the same race, that includes African American and white teen boys and girls. Like,
for when a black teen boy were to get into a real relationship with a teen white/Caucasian
girl, a teen Asian girl (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, Vietnamese, Malaysian,
Thai, or Filipino), a teen Hispanic girl, or a teen Middle Eastern girl, that would be
great for him. And if a black teen girl were to get into a real relationship with a teen
white/Caucasian boy, a teen Asian boy (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, Vietnamese,
Malaysian, Thai, or Filipino), a teen Hispanic boy, or a teen Middle Eastern boy, then
that's great for her, too. What love is trying to do to all teenage lovebirds, including
all interracial teen couples, is to have made them happy, especially when they're around
each other.And what this type of young love is also doing is promoting interracial love
around the entire American nation, including Massachusetts, Texas, Alabama, and
California. Interracial relationships among all teenagers are increasing in not just the
United States of America, but the whole world, as well. It also seems to everyone that
both lovebirds of different races will never stop loving each other, not even before the
year 2019. But then, interracial relationships among all teenagers do have a good impact
on then. Their parents (the mothers and the fathers of all different races) should be very
happy for their teen sons and teen daughters, especially when they know that their teens
are in love with each other. And if love among all teenagers continues to grow and grow
without stopping and that all interracial relationships were to increase, even before and
after the year 2020, this is going to be the greatest thing that has ever happened to all
teenage lovebirds nationwide.

An Asian girl is a beautiful princess in her own right. She's the crown jewel in the lives of all American guys, even me. Even though this awesome Asian girl doesn't have a crown on her head, she's still a princess in my eyes. It seems to me that she's the type of girl that I really want to be with, especially when we're going to get into a serious relationship in the near future. Whether she's either Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, Korean, Thai, Filipino, Indonesian, or Malaysian, I still want to be with her. When I tend to look at her eyes, they look like a pair of black diamonds. And when I see her beautiful face, it's like looking at the face of an attractive angel. Her hair is so soft and smooth, it's like holding a silky cloth made entirely out of silkworms, especially when they're known for making good cloths. If only this Asian girl knew that I had so much love for her. And if I see this beautiful Asian princess (Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, Filipino, Indonesian, Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, or Malaysian), I'd express my love for her. I hope fate will bring us together soon.

Sky Father is angry this spring
Across the street, back and forth
Brother squirrel races
To fallen friends, unfortunate
In their travels
My tomato friends patiently
Wait, shelf-bound, at home depot
June 7th...
Finally, a break!
Stakes shived weeks ago
Hear me coming!
Welcoming their heirloom mates
Goliath, Black Krim, and Mortgage Lifters
All settle in, my hands busy
Favorite herbs, Thai Basil, Lemon Thyme
And forgotten Sage, guard the
My bean pole teepee, long a
Staple of my garden
Still waits, for the soak
To settle

Late September-boarded a Boeing tripple seven
A life long dream has come true
Im on my way to Thailand-my holiday heaven
Peaceful and quiet people I met there
Smiling faces-no matter how poor
Buddha seems to make them happy-they really care
Riding the elephants was a bit scary though
Slow and shaky walk made me seasick
Threatens my belly to blow
Mr Joey the driver-everlasting smiles
Takes me westbound to Kanchanaburi
Dozed off I did-the drive lasted many miles
Kanchanaburi we arrived-home of the Tiger Temple
Walking and cuddling with these beautiful beasts
I prayed they would treat me gentle
Walking with a tiger on a leash
Try to keep my calm-stiff look into the camera
Hopefully no anger my four legged bud would unleash
Finally made my way back home
The Tiger Temple I had survived
And Im here writing-not a single hair they did chrome
5th January 2012
Guess it is fair to say that this has been my greatest holiday,ever! I saw a documentary on Discovery Channel two years ago,about munks living together with tigers in Kanchanaburi,Thailand.It just amazed me to the fullest-living peacefully with these beautiful beasts..,wow factor all over it!
Then in september 2011,we set course for Hua Hin,Thailand,-roughly 2hr drive south of Bangkok.(Rented a wonderful house there at Natural Hill.com) At one of the local tourist information offices,we found brochures of the Tiger Temple.Had Mr Joey,the everlasting smiler-driving to this unique temple.Spent the day out there,and what a magnificent experience! My puls went up a few notches as I mingled with the tigers,sitting on the ground with their head resting on my lap and cuddle with them.A mixture of fear,respect and admiration..All this combined with the lovely spirit of the Thai people: Amazing!!
Do some google about that tiger temple guys! Awesome pictures is to be found:)

I've never liked to cook
(Always found it quite
a bore)
But now my problem's
I don't do it any more!
My partner is the
And his brand-new
love affair
With a large kitchen

He's getting quite an
At chopping (dicing,
And with all the herbs
and spices,
Things are hot as a
The heat is on, the
air is filled
With aromatic spices,
And as he grasps his
wooden spoon
He could have much
worse vices.
I used to like my roast
But now it's come to
The food's gone
With a hint of lemon
With turmeric and
Thai five spice,
The dishes that he
knocks off
And the heat they
generate can be
Enough to blow
your socks off!
So, if your mate is
Don't let him run
Just send him
down the town
to buy
A great big

You asked me if I knew 'the perfect girl for me'
I think I'd be ideal but sorry I'm not free
I've got a lovely friend she is Mary from the dairy
On second thoughts no as her legs are much too hairy
Of course there is Annie she's got the most enormous fanny
It would look better on an elephant the resemblance is uncanny
Oh I forgot about Susie she's got quite a dark moustache
When you went to kiss her you'd get a stubble rash
I've got a stunning Thai friend but he is a lady boy
Beautiful on the outside but in bed you'd get no joy
Then there is Melissa she got the biggest boobs
She gets them out for fun you can see her on You Tube
I wouldn't introduce you to my mate Regina
She's had 8 children she's got a very slack vagina
Poor old Ellie has got the most humongus lips
They'd look better on a trout she's not one you'd want to kiss
I guess the perfect girl simply does not exist
So sorry to disappoint you please cross me off your list

Nowhere in the world are the people so kind
As in Bangkok. You can find anything in that city.
But forget Soi Cowboy. Get your feet on the ground
And walk about. The colorful wats and temples
Enliven the Thai sky. The vendors along the road-
Side will give you a spicy taste of something local.
I went to Seoul to give an aikido seminar to local
Students. Afterwards I took a bus tour, the kind
You can get on and off. Along the crowded roads
Lie remnants of history surrounded by modern city,
Great palaces of ancient rulers and Buddhist temples.
I spent hours wandering those vast imperial grounds.
Getting around Dali is not easy. The rugged ground
Is difficult to navigate at night. But the local
Food is the best kind of Chinese, and the temples
And pagodas there are unrivaled. I met four kind
Girls, and we all took a bike tour of the walled city.
It was an adventure riding those cobblestone roads!
If you go to Hanoi, be careful crossing the road -
Hesitate, and you might get knocked to the ground
By one of a million motorbikes zipping through the city.
But the lakes and trees are beautiful, and the local
Beer is cheap. The pagodas are of a different kind -
Vietnam has more Taoist than Buddhist temples.
By ocean cliffs in Bali sit majestic Hindu temples,
And in Hindu homes along winding mountain roads.
I tried the (in)famous luwak coffee, a special kind
Made from beans pooped (cleaned) and ground.
It was good, as were several of the other local
Flavors. My villa was in the sawah near the city.
Just outside the madness of the city
Of Hong Kong, there is a Buddhist temple,
The Po Lin Monastery. It is a popular local
Attraction. Enjoy the view. Do not take the road -
Take the cable cars high above the ground.
It's an experience of a different kind.
When I find myself wandering exotic city roads,
I almost always head first for temple grounds,
And then try food and drink of the local kind.

Eight years of staying in a far away land
Looking for a greener pasture in the country of Thailand
Meeting people whom I call a friend
To be with them and my love extend
They are so loving and trusting
Help you if they can till the end
Show gratefulness like a sister/brother
Enjoy each other's company together
The friendship that I have with them
Many years will passed its still the same
Save it in my heart forever
My Thai friends, it will not be over
Thailand….land of smile they've called
It suits them 'coz I like them all
Though I will leave them soon
I will always remember them just by looking at the moon

That's not MY elephant!
A spiteful conceited elephant that ran away from the circus
MY elephant provides copies of the Bill Of Rights to all 2nd graders in Macon County
Considers fund-raising possibilities of selling elephant ears at Zippy Zoo Days
The kids will bring their white elephants and we will do a Spaghetti Feed
At RATS youth ministry--Can a mouse lift an elephant?
If you want to move a heavy load you have to use force
Where would you push?
For this lesson students used a triangular piece of wood
One side labeled Rights the other Responsibilities
Drop a marble in the balance (They used a 10lb. sack of potatoes)
Its all educational
But Barbar--You wouldn't catch THAT elephant playing jazz on his trunk
Not that elephant jazz in Austin Jazz de Chang (elephant in Thai)
Playing with pink noise and changing the recipe spaghetti
Too hot for a drumstep (bootleg) from the Elephant House
While Ella singing When I See Elephants Fly gazes over Matisse
The Nightmare of the White Elephant from the jazz series
Hanging over the elephant jazz bar nu dark swing dubbles
Ella and Wave for singers a Nightmare autographed Artie Shaw
And the poet on each finger has the following written
Somebody Wanted But So Then says Clustering thats the way
To do it says Glue the stick to the hand--Fulcrum
And then gives all the brats rides on an elephant named Bubbles!

About ten minutes ago in the year
2006 or
2549, depending upon which avatar or
Messiah is consulted, I
Tumbled out of my bed to the
Cackle of
Frantic voices
So, with urgency
Rarely experienced since the
Evacuation of my spirit
From the Land of
Possession Addiction, I was called to summon previously
Unknown prowess
Chancing traffic choked streets
Of Nakhorn (used to mean "New City" 700 years ago but not sure now)
Chiang Mai.
So there I was
Aboard my mostly pint-sized for a European descendent Kawasaki 112,
Red-blooded American head
turret-like out of an
Undersized helmet that,
If nothing else,
Officially pronounced me foreign
Blazing a jutted path around
Decrepit trishaws,
Ubiquitously red baht busses and,
Not the least, a motorcycle with a sidecar bandaged to its
Aching side just in time to witness a
Spit-shined just out of the wrapper BMW
Brusque aside a
Sardine packed dump truck
Not with dirt, but five dollar a day
All this and more
Just moments before
Mounting the silted Ping and
Stampeding city gates, I glimpsed
Censored Snippets of TV reports blurting something unintelligible like
"Bangkok coup",
"A King"
Quite uncensored, of a not so pleased
Lotus splayed in
Kneading the Eastern soil one
Daoist grain at a time,
Before ancient city walls
Rose up,
Monolithic in my path.
And then the recall that
Centuries before,
Burmese raiders
Resplendent in warrior garb
Plundered the palace and soul
Of the kingdom Thai before stealthily
Creeping back to their lairs,
Buddha-fat with riches.
That leaves the Siamese of 1935
And me, to wonder
Where is freedom
When we travel so far
Pell mell and
Peril, only to discover
In a fleeting brief moment the road to
Iniquity marked, rather
Erroneously, with the signpost to

The monks gave me a bag of Thai oranges
Before I left for the States.
Next time I come, I'll have learned more Lao,
I promise.
They promise there will be more to show the next time.
Sitting outside the Khop Jai Deu restaurant
Waiting for my bus to come
Elvis is crooning "Return to Sender"
Because there's no such number,
And no such home.
I took a photo of the fountain
Next to the Scandinavian Bakery,
Tuk-tuk drivers loitering nearby.
Handing them some fruit,
They ask, "How long are you staying in Laos?"
And I reply,
"This is my last day."
The sun looks like it could be peeled wide open
While I take a bite of a giant orange,
Trying to wring out a last memory from this light,
Wondering when the King's song is ever going to end
The scent of citrus on my hand
Sinks deeply past my bones,
Trying to harden into an anchor
The shape of a kind heart.

While sitting in the train one day
traveling in to town,
the carridge door was opened and
a stunning Thai girl did sit down.
She really was a beauty
with long black shiny hair,
the mini skirt it was so tight
i could hardly stop my stare.
I thought "this is my lucky day"
and gave a saucy wink,
a smile came back at me
her cheeks were glowing pink.
Then embarassment it followed
i thought oh God forbid,
please don"t get an erection
but alas, i"m afraid she did!

My daughter left for the chilly north,
and I stayed here, in warm Torbay,
but we meet up every July, in Bath,
just the two of us, for a weekend away
The city is bustling with tourists,
Japanese, Italian and French,
and because of the famous theatre,
you may even catch sight of Judi Dench
Our weekend highlight is the thermal spa,
the hot waters pumped up from the deep,
up to the open air pool on the rooftop,
the warmth of the water nearly rocks us to sleep
The view from this pool is magnificent,
the sun kissed Bath stone and the spires,
past architects dreams, now reality,
my love of this city never tires
When hunger calls, no better place to be,
the whole world's cuisine can be found,
From Spanish to Greek, Indian to Thai,
restaurants and chic bistro's abound
Alas, the weekend is over too soon,
and my daughter and I part, with a tear,
but rest assured, that we will go back,
to do it all again next year!

Roger the lodger a thai boxer to throat
Trained in the evening with stick from a boat
He thought of apartment from me he did rent
But hated the neighbours on them he would vent
His rent was fair paid but I wondered a lot
His work was quite sketchy and differed in plot
Driving Instruction together with fight
Gave him a nice living but gave him no wife.
Alsations a barking by day and by night
No sleep was a gained and temper was tight
His stick he brought round to poke through the pane
And whack a steel wardrobe to frighten and blame
He hardly could bear the stench of the dogs
No bones were removed and stank of brown bogs
Bleached their whole garden when neighbours were out
And burnt all the timbers that ward off the louts
And finally once in a shopping mall scene
Could handle no more could only be mean
The neighbour was out buying his smalls
So punched in the face and put wheel chair wa Floored
(Sad but True)

"Pair with olive oil for a simple, yet satisfying dressing that will take salads to the next level."
Figs are so good, and leave it to Sondra Bernstein of Sonoma's The Girl & The Fig restaurant to blend the delicious fruit into balsamic vinegar – a winning combination. This vinegar will make your life so simple. Everyone will think you're a cooking genius.
Use in a marinade, or simply drizzle over fresh strawberries or vanilla ice cream. Of course, it is fabulous in salads, especially with sharp lettuces like arugula and paired with a soft goat cheese.
Balsamic vinegar, fig paste, sugar, fig concentrate, marsala wine, orange extract, vanilla. Comes in an 8.4 oz bottle.
