I have stayed at many b&b s and found this place to be so wonderful. I was visiting my son who lived about 2 miles from the guesthouse, so I was able to walk or use public transportation. The breakfasts were so well configured. Always fruit, eggs, yogurt, granola etc. if you had a dietary need, just ask. Beautifully presented. There is always tea, or coffee available. Very clean. The proprietress was extremely helpful with any questions I had. I had a great experience. Well worth the price!

Perfect rooms, perfect neighborhood with a food cart pod in walking distance. Loved the freedom of a key-less entry. Owners so non-intrusive, unless I needed something and they were always available. I HIGHLY recommend!

My fiance and I went to Portland in July 2011 (he asked me in Portland), and wanted to see that Portland was like so we stayed primarily at this B&B. The Clinton Street B&B looks like a normal house on the outside, but it is an amazing bed and breakfast place with an adorable back yard. Jason and Ann are very kind, attentative, and friendly. This B&B is VERY clean, peaceful, and charming. The breakfast is delicious, healthy, and during our stay they had really ripe and SWEET raspberries and melon, yummy quiche, OJ, soy milk because I am lactose intolerant, coffee, huge selection of tea, fresh muffin tops, all kinds of yummy things freshly made with really good ingredients; can't get anything close to this at a boring old hotel. Really amazing food. Parking was fine, the area was quiet. Reserve Rm #1 if you can. It is upstairs and is the master bedroom and has a nice outdoor patio area that was great for wine and chocolate in the evening. They have a fridge shelf you can use to store munchies too. Ask Jason or Ann for ideas on places to go; they're good with giving driving directions and their suggestions were wonderful too. They do have free wi-fi, but if you want a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of work, this is great.

anybody have this prob. so of them alomst even freeze up and the sound glitches as well, is this a disc or hardware problem. the 360 is only a couple months old, and the game is brand new. its pissing me off, killing my eye candy
Posted 28 November 2006 - 09:31 PM
i haven't experienced any problems i've played the game through 3 or 4 times
Posted 29 November 2006 - 02:29 PM
also at times in the game when playing i can hear this high pitched sound coming from the dvd drive.
Posted 29 November 2006 - 04:04 PM
i had a similar problem, then the game couldn't load any chapters properly either... i have a suspicion that its a scratched disc, but not 100% sure
Posted 29 November 2006 - 05:42 PM
there is nothing wrong with my disc at all
Posted 29 November 2006 - 07:25 PM
ive had a few problems with gears during the middle of gamplay sometimes it owuld read dirty disc but my disc is fine or it froze once but only on gears never hppened on any other gaem since .

How many hours have you guys been playing when this happens? If you play the thing all night the system is bound to get hot and start messing up. Maybe your little brother is stuffing crayons in the box .
Posted 01 December 2006 - 02:27 PM
it might be an hour into gaming when it happens to me, so i just made my own intercooler and now the bastard blows alomost cold and the case is cold!
Posted 02 December 2006 - 04:28 PM
I've been having a similar problem where my cutscenes skip without me pressing anything. I also have been having the described high pitched sounds from my DVD drive, yet there is no visible physical damage to the disc.
Posted 05 December 2006 - 09:40 PM
End of chapter 3 cutscene glitched a few times but that's about it for me.
Posted 06 December 2006 - 12:51 AM

I recently added a new post to my blog and in the admin panel it shows a different author - I can't find my name in the 'change author' list - any ideas?
I recently added a new post to my blog and in the admin panel it shows a different author - I can't find my name in the 'change author' list - any ideas?
I forgot to say that I'm using WordPress 2.1.
Now everytime I create a post (when I'm signed in) it displays the author as another user and not myself (ghostfreak).
Any ideas?!
I'm having this problem on one of my wordpress blogs as well. There is no author field when editing a post (or writing a new one).
WP 2.1.2 on IIS 6 server. MySQL5, php4...
What gives!?
I've discovered that the problem (for me) was that wp wasn't counting the default admin user as a second author, so it wasnt showing the author field. I added a new user and then the author drop-down showed up. Furthermore, once I added a first name onto the admin account it also showed up in the drop-down list.
This seems like a bug to me. If a user (such as the default admin) has posts, he should be included in the list of authors (which, for that matter, should be visible) if there are any other authors...
I am also having this problem on one of my wordpress sites. The only author that shows is the user with the role of author. No "admin" user shows as a choice in the drop-down list.
Anyone have any ideas?
Bizarre. Seems adding a first name to the admin user does indeed enable the "Author" box to appear on create/edit posts page. Worked for me.
I think you can make any change to the admin user, and it will fix this problem.
I did it by checking the checkbox next to my admin user on the main Users page, selecting "Set the Role of checked users to: Administrator", and clicking "Bulk Update".
The underlying problem seems to be that the "user_level" field in the database does not exist for the admin user, but changing the user causes it to be created. I suspect user_level might be a deprecated database field and so it's not always populated.
I think you can make any change to the admin user, and it will fix this problem.
Unfortunately didn't work for me.
I was trying to create a page with the admin account, but in the Page Author dropdown it only had one username, a user with the Author role.
What eventually worked for me was I created a new Administrator user, then set the Page Author to the original admin account (because now in the dropdown there were three users, admin, new-Admin, and the author that had always appeared before), then deleted the new-Admin.
So far, so good. Glad I found this topic though. Took me forever to find it (although it was my own fault, I was searching wordpress.com :P).
I just discovered this problem on one my blogs. I was trying to create a page and my guest blogger was the only one showing as an option as page author.
Once I edited MY profile (as admin), my name showed up just fine in the menu. All I did was add an initial to my last name.
I think you can make any change to the admin user, and it will fix this problem.
This happened to me as well. I added a new user and suddenly all the posts I had written while signed in as admin were listed as by the new user (also admin level), and my original admin user did not appear in the post author dropdown box.
I went to the original admin user and changed the nickname, and that added the account back into the dropdown list and got the post attributions to revert back to the appropriate author.
Hope this bug gets fixed. I thought I was going crazy!
Selecting my admin account, making sure I had first and last name in the blanks, and then clicking "Bulk Update" as specified above worked for me. WEIRD problem! First I've had like this with MANY WP blogs.
I also recently had this problem on one of my blogs - the admin user not appearing as an option in the drop down author selection box.
The bulk update fix suggested above seemed to fix it - easy when you know how!
Seems this is still a problem, as I am having the same thing happen to all of my blogs. As has been suggested, the bulk update for admin role fixed it.
I have been creating posts and setting things up for my site. As I have time, I've been adding users - then I edit the pages to switch them to the author who is going to be maintaining the posts.
This was working fine, then all of a sudden today when I added a new author. I was able to reassign one post - but when I went to change the next one when I scroll down to the author section all I see is my admin name - no one else's name is showing up. When I went to my other site where I have other authors the same thing, only my admin name is showing up as a choice to be author.
I'm using 2.2.2 - my WP installed with Fantastico and that is as high as I can go for the revision. But for this problem the sites were working - now they are not... I hope I have added enough detail to this entry that someone can point me to what to do to solve this...
BTW I tried adding a letter to my name and then updating it - and I click my name and clicked on bulk update as suggested in this thread.. didn't change anything the way I needed it.
I figured by problem about not being able to change authors - since I was able to make one change for an author with my new machine it doesn't make sense to me - but here is new information.
On my iMac G4 with OS 10.4.10 I can change the authors.
On my MacBook Pro with OS 10.5 I can not change the authors.
Luckily, I still have access to the older system so was able to make the change in who manages the pages - they even get credit for it at the bottom of each post...
New Information that means I can get rid of my old computer:
On my iMac G4 with OS 10.4.10 using Firefox 22.214.171.124, I can change the authors.
On my MacBook Pro with OS 10.5 using Firefox 188.8.131.52, I can not change the authors.
On my MacBook Pro with OS 10.5 using Safari Version 3.0.4 (5523.10), I can change the authors.
Hope this helps someone.
I have a strange problem as well. After changing some older articles to a new author suddenly all articles have been deleted (or not there - perhaps there are not deleted)...
Any ideas?

10 Ways The CW's "Riverdale" Cast Will Infuse Classic "Archie" with Scandal & Murder
TV, Comic Books
Let's get the standard stuff out of the way.
You should follow Comics Should Be Good on Twitter (if you have Twitter, that is – if you don't, you can go sign up). Here is our Twitter page… http://twitter.com/csbg. And here are the Comics Should Be Good writers who are on Twitter (the links go to the person's Twitter account) – myself, Chad Nevett, Kelly Thompson, Sonia Harris Danielle Leigh, Melinda Beasi and Michelle Smith!
The blog's Twitter account updates whenever a new post is put up on the blog, so it's an easy way to keep up with the blog. Plus, if we reach 2,000 followers, I'll do an extra edition of Comic Book Legends Revealed the week we hit 2,000. At 3,000 followers, I will do another Month of Greatest Stories Ever Told!
Now on to the bit!
So every week, I ask a question here. You reply to it on our Twitter page (just write @csbg with your reply) and our SIX blog sketch artists will each pick one of your suggestions and I will post them here every week. So every week you will have a new question and you will see the top six choices from the previous week.
To qualify, you have to be following us when you reply – so go follow us and then give your answer to the following question/challenge (all suggestions due by 11:59 PM Eastern on Thursday, August 12th):
Last week I asked you to do a mash-up between a Marvel Comics property and a Walt Disney property. Well, this time around let's do the same with a DC Comics property and a Warner Brothers property. Besides the Looney Tunes characters AND the Hanna-Barbera characters, here is a list of all Warner Brothers films. To help, here are some especially notable films by Warner Brothers: The Maltese Falcon, The Adventures of Robin Hood, Little Caesar, Scarface, Casablanca, Arsenic and Old Lace, The Big Sleep, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, A Streetcar Named Desire, East of Eden, Rebel Without a Cause, The Searchers, Ocean's Eleven, The Music Man, My Fair Lady, Bonny and Clyde, Cool Hand Luke, The Wild Bunch, Bullitt, The Clockwork Orange, Deliverance, The Exorcist, Blazing Saddles, The Outlaw Josey Wales, A Star is Born, The Shining, Caddyshack, Police Academy, Full Metal Jacket, Lethal Weapon, The Matrix…really, the list is practically endless.
Read on for the six sketches that came about courtesy of the last question/challenge:
Come up with a cool combination of a Marvel Comics property with a Walt Disney property.
I'll put them in alphabetical order based on the name of the Twitter user who made the suggestion.
All copyright and trademarks of the following characters are held by their respective owners!

Pretty darn awesome, guys!
Thanks so much to the artists and the suggestion-givers! Now everyone head off to Twitter and give them some good options for next week!
I'm so glad one of you guys did Kim Possible: Agent of SHIELD. And that it turned out so AWESOME. :o)
Yeah, that was pretty insanely good, Erich.
Great stuff this week! Fantastic job on Kim Possible, Erich, makes me glad I didn't pick that one myself.
Hey, thanks guys!
Damn Erich, that is bad ass!
Holy crap, you guys.
Wow. These all look amazing…but that Kim Possible Agent of S.H.E.I.L.D. is AMAZING.
Wonderful stuff, all. My favorite is the FF/Incredibles sketch; it's the most inevitable of them all, but Irizarri just packs it with individual characterization.
Yeah, I don't even know what Kim Possible is but that picture makes me want to watch it. Totally looks better than pro!
Awesome drawings. The artists knocked every idea out of the park.
I'll simply repeat the whole "I don't have Twitter… Heck, don't even have a cell phone" bit and then repeat the "can we please make suggestions here as well" question.
Yeah, most of these were pretty amazing.
Chernabog/Thanos has to be my favourite.
Erich is the standout this week, that is phenomenal.
Excellecent work from Caanan again, but I do think (and I realise the time constraints on this kind of work, so I am not trying to be harsh, just honest) that it's a little busy, especially without colour. I do think coloured, this work would have been better, it's a little confusing in black and white. I understand that it should be a frenetic scene, but a little more definition would help it out.
Wow, I should have reread my comments before posting…. That was a terribly constructed bit of feedback…
Thanks, Oz. I agree – I WAS going for crazy busy as I did intend to colour it, but too much work came in at the last minute. At its original size (14 x 17 inches) it looks a little less busy. You can barely see Iron Man fighting the harpies in the little netty version.
Some helpful colorist should help us out and color Caanan's piece for him so we can see the difference!
If anyone wants to give it a shot, feel free to e-mail the finished product to email@example.com!
Kim Possible was great. Incredibles FF would be great too but WHERE is FRANKLIN! (Notice I don't mind the missing Valeria.)
[…] Another Comics Should Be Good sketch off went up yesterday at CBR. This time I got to draw the Incredibles fighting alongside the Avengers! Check it out. […]
I'll add my voice to the Kim Possible Agent of SHIELD is amazing choir. Brilliantly done Erich.
I also love FF/Incredibles. Someone pointed out how good the characterizations are and I agree 100%. I am eagerly awaiting their eventual first meeting!
The art itself is amazing but the story-telling is what really sells that Kim Possible piece. Ron is perfect.
I like the FF/Incredibles one too. I think the actual art is a little rough, but the characters and scene make it work. I think Violet in that scene is my favorite.
[…] more check out the CSBG article. Hell, check out the entire site. I recommend Chad Nevett and Greg Hatcher. Categories: […]
Mr. Cronin, would you write the Kim Possible Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D when it comes out? Because damn… that is such an on point idea that you know someone in Marvel is pitching it as we speak…
Trademark it NOW! =)
Of all the mash-ups – I like the Kim Possible: Agent of Shield most….
Marvel, Disney, Take a hint, introduce Kim Possible into the Marvel Universe and make her a SHIELD Agent.
Kudos for coming up with some interesting suggestions.
The KP one is very nicely done (not too keen on the mole rat's eyelashes, though).
Just for giggles, you can check out my old Wolverduck (Donald as Wolverine) from years back, before Disney was even in the discussion of a buyout of Marvel, at my website.
If you don't know the site, just click on my name.
Can I add my name to the "They are all brilliant" choir?
Yes I can
I have no words for that Kim Possible pic. Wow. The colouring just makes it POP!
PS: Okay, apparently I had a few words. Shut up.
Thanks, Everybody for the kind words!! I'm thrilled that you guys* enjoy my artwork!
Louis, those are his whiskers, he doesn't have eyelashes :o)
*guys is a general term meaning everybody, including you girls
I must have the power to see into the future. It's not my best work, but I predicted this way back when: http://www.mania.com/images/disneys-iron-man_image.html?id=6293a232-a2d9-4d29-a5de-7151b47f0afa
LOVElovelove that Kim Possible: Agent of SHIELD art piece (though shouldn't Ron's pants be around his ankles? :-)).
Now, can we get Drakken and Shego as members of HYDRA?
How did they forget Gargoyles? They would fit perfectly in the Marvel Universe.
man, did the kim possible pic really knock it out of the park! generally speaking i loved all the contributions and i can totally accept that mine was a bit rough around the edges. (its how i work, plus there were SO many elements to that drawing.
Wow, my brain all sorts of impolded
Steve, that's funny! I totally forgot about the pants.
Those are supposed to be his whiskers? They look like eyelashes to me, obviously. I thought he only had two whiskers on each cheek and one was longer than the other on each side… *shrugs* The differences in artistic and visual interpretation. No big deal.
I love how all these sketches are turning out and I can't wait till next week. Great job guys
Hope this link works:
surprised no one did "Beauty & Beast"
Wow, Kim Possible Agent of SHIELD is AWESOME.
Let me add my voice to the chorus of praise for Kim Possible, Agent of SHIELD. But the others were also nicely done. I esp. thought the Donald Duck one was cute, and I love the expression on Violet's face in the Incredibles/FF.
I loved the art but I woulda really liked an Ant Man and Tinkerbell! All of you artists get a slap on the back from me.I lol'd at the Mickey and Dormannu one.
Iron-Man + Gizmo-Duck. That is all.
the Kp one was amazing! and FF4 With Inc. i would love to see a cross over of those two. for FF4 a nice funny one. and for kp they should totally throw Kp Into marvel. but like hard core version of her self XD. and fans can finally see kp and ron in bed. lol
Holy cow, these are even BETTER than the last batch!! O_O
About the only one I didn't like so much was Snow White and She-Hulk, it looks a little mean but maybe that's just me. The Kim Possible one definitely was the best drawn and I'm not even a KP fan! Also Thanosbog RULES. If Disney has half a brain it will do a crossover like these (maybe ala DC/Marvel's Amalgam Comics project?)
How is the FF/Impossibles not everyone's favorites?? Look at Johnny and Dash! I think Dash is probably winning…look at that smirk. Daniel, you rock.
I wish I could own all of these for my walls. They're awesome all around.
@Robert: thanks! and yeah i totally invisioned Dash winning, and johnny getting frustrated and hot-headed about it. kids today are videogame experts like i never was.
thanks again!
Kim Possible: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D is just brilliant. I also love the "comix" style of the Mickey meets Dormammu one.
Really really great stuff, all around. This might turn into my new favorite feature.
@Stephen Bergstrom… Dude that JLAToons vs Aven-Disney print is NUTS!!! Ahem…Marvel? DC? This is one crossover that needs to be fast tracked!!! =)
Thanks, Chris!
Hey Everybody, I finally colored my FF/Atomic Robo pic from last week. You can check it out here: http://erich0823.deviantart.com/#/d2wb32g
Woohoo. My suggestion got picked. That'll teach Mickey to mess wth the dark arts.
Awesome job on all of them but I'll pretty much echo the chorus here and say the Kim Possible one is my favorite.

A discussion that began with the Shelbyville City Council last month will carry into Tuesday's Triple S Planning Commission meeting.
Triple S Executive Director Ryan Libke told city council members at their former meeting that because zoning violations are considered a criminal offense, they too often get pushed to the side in the court system – sometimes for years. To curb this problem, Libke asked for the council's support in the decision to treat the violations as a civil offense, allowing the local Code Enforcement Board to handle them.
Bryan Schildknecht, the substitute teacher that was involved in an altercation with a Collins High School student last October, has legally been cleared of all allegations of wrongdoing.
Shelby County Public Schools relieved Schildknecht from his duties at the school on October 8, 2015, immediately following a scuffle between him and the student but offered little comment on the matter, stating only that he would no longer work in the district.
Kentucky public health officials are worried enough about a mosquito threat that they called a press conference in Frankfort Monday about the matter.
Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles joined other state officials to announce a partnership between the Kentucky Department of Agriculture and the Kentucky Department for Public Health to try and prevent the spread of the Zika virus in Kentucky this summer.
The Simpsonville Police Department is preparing to upgrade its communications to a digital system to join the rest of Shelby County's first responders, most of who have already completed the transition.
At Thursday night's meeting of the Simpsonville City Commission, commissioners approved purchasing a $30,000 Kenwood brand repeater system, complete with antenna, on the recommendation of Sharon Cummins, who heads up the law enforcement committee.
Mary Courtney says she is on cloud nine after being chosen as the role model for women in agriculture for the entire nation.
Courtney, who, along with her husband, Shane, owns Courtney Farms, was named 2016 American Farm Mom last week.
"Just being nominated, and being selected as the regional winner, that was awesome," she said. "And then to have the national, also, well, it's just a true testament of the people who are my friends and our community and our state."
Students across the district are collaborating with the Shelby Regional Arts Council to form unique works of art to display in their schools.
David Wainscott, with SARC, said two years ago they reached out to the schools and he was connected with Southside Elementary Art Teacher McKenzie Hunter.
"She had a lot of faith," Wainscott said, noting Hunter had no idea what to expect from the project, but it has since expanded to the other schools. "The others have seen the finished project."
The city of Shelbyville presented a balanced budget again on Thursday for the upcoming fiscal year.
The budget reflects a carryover balance of $4.8 million and estimated revenue of $8.3 million while the estimated appropriations, at $10.4 million, look to exceed that revenue.
In order to carry over a balance of $3.8 million into the following fiscal year, the 2016-17 budget includes an interfund transfer of $1.1 million from the $4.8 million carryover.
Council member Frank Page questioned why this was done.
With five Odyssey of the Mind teams in Shelby County gearing up for World Finals just a few weeks away, the Shelby County Board of Education will consider providing up to $4,000 for team travel expenses when they convene for their regular meeting Thursday at 7 p.m.
The board will meet this week at West Middle School, which is sending three of the five teams to the competition at Iowa State University May 25-28 in Ames, Iowa.
In his budget address to the Shelby County Fiscal Court Tuesday night, Shelby County Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger proposed a budget of just over a half million more than last year.
The 2016-17 county budget he proposed is $21,364,988, an increase of about 2.5 percent from the 2015-16 budget of $20,823,427.
The budget proposal is full of increased benefits for county employees, including a 2 percent raise not only for all full-time employees, but also for part-time employees in select departments, he said.
If you want to see live animal acts and watch international circus stars perform daring stunts, then you must make it down to Shelby County Fairgrounds Monday when the Kelly Miller Brothers Circus comes to town.
The circus will feature two shows – one at 4:30 p.m. and one at 7:30 p.m. – with Ringmaster Rebecca Ostroff in charge as the lights darken, the spotlights flash, with acts to delight adults and children alike.
But the activity really starts much earlier than that, said Circus Manager Tavana Brown.

Therefore, as Bishops, we wish to take this occasion to call to mind the joy and vitality that the Council brought to the Church through its key teachings.

Build a computer-controlled Etch-a-Sketch.
This summer, VEX team 918 designed and built a robotic Etch-a-Sketch using the popular VEX robotics parts. We called it the VEX-a-Sketch. The VEX-a-Sketch can be controlled through either programming or a joystick. You can build your own by following this guide!
Major VEX parts needed:
You will have a lot of metal parts left over after building the VEX-a-Sketch.
First you need to build some "claws" which will be used to grab the knobs of the Etch-a-Sketch. We wanted claws that would not require you to modify the Etch-a-Sketch and after much experimentation with many different designs we came up with these simple claws that work really well. Be sure to bend the standoffs together slightly.
Here we are building the bar that will hold the drive shafts for the motors, claws and quadrature encoders. Count the holes for proper positioning of the bearings.
Two quadrature encoders are attached to the base of the frame using long screws and spacers.
A 2x2 angle can be cut into two pieces to form the left and right vertical rails for the frame. Another 2x2 angle is attached across the top to complete the frame.
Once the frame is constructed, you attach the motor bar to the frame and you can install the motor, gears, axles and the claw. Here are detailed views of the left and right claw drives.
To complete the VEX-a-Sketch, we add an angle across the top of the frame and mount the Cortex microcontroller to a piece of Lexan that is attached to the frame as shown here.
These pictures demonstrate how you can easily remove and install the Etch-a-Sketch.
We programmed the VEX-a-Sketch using Easy-C. Easy-C is a very simple programming environment where you create C-like code by dragging and dropping blocks into your program. You can get Easy-C from intellitek.com.

An excellent editorial about this problem that seems to some to be complex and difficult. Simple to me, make a path for immigration and citizenship for our neighbors and friends from south of the border that is quick and possible, unlike the present maze and delay-prone "policy". This change has been needed for decades. The GOP needs to get up out of their soft seats in their country clubs and make actual progress on immigration reform, progress that will lead to a Utah Compact - like range of solutions well before the fall elections. This can only be good for the country. Delay past the election will cause me to change my voter registration, I'll no longer be able to honestly join with Repubs. I'm for increased opportunity for our friends, Bienvenidos!

"...children brought illegally..."
The "through no fault of their own" argument is a scam. Children are illegally trafficked into this country and Americans are falsely guilted into not sending them home with the parents who brought them here (notice nothing is ever mentioned about the parents?). The result is the effective dissolution of U.S. immigration law. This is why the pro-amnesty propaganda effort is focused mainly on deportation and on Dreamers.

After reading the previous postings and seeing the internal debate within the

1) Nothing is likely to be done this year in Congress because the GOP leadership can't get a coalition within it's ranks

"Arresting and deporting these productive and law-abiding individuals is
neither feasible nor desirable."
That is not true. If they are given to understand that they are in fact subject the law and that if caught, the penalty would be meaningful and they would be deported -- whereas now they basically are promised immunity at the law, which is why they are here in such vast numbers -- most would then self-deport. Thus it is not necessary to deport all of them, nor need it be done overnight.
And a policy of deportation is desirable. This is a nation of laws. Immigration law means nothing unless backed up by a willingness to deport. Where there is no law, there is anarchy and eventually a loss of liberty and the nation itself.
And it is specious to say they are "law-abiding" when by both by definition and in practice, they are not in fact law-abiding.
"...malice toward none..."
Disrespect of the sovereignty and laws and customs of this nation is an affront to its citizens.
"Immigration reform is a matter of compassion."
Disrespect for immigration law is a matter of NON-compassion toward the American victim of illegal immigration.

Compassion? Love is sending people down the path of righteousness; rewarding

America has the most liberal immigration in the world. We give out over a million green cards each year, and 3.2 million work visas. That's more than the rest of the world combined. With millions of Americans out of work right now, our emphasis needs to be on them.
Before 1976 we gave our half of what we give out now. This is the greatest wave of migration our country has ever seem. And that's not including those here illegally.

What earlier opened the way for negotiations on immigration reform was a
softening of the Republican position on legality. They conceded that they would
consider a way for qualified undocumented immigrants to attain legal status
although under no circumstances citizenship.
What they assume (and probably rightly so) is that citizenship and voting rights for the undocumented would not be to their advantage. Rather, their solution for millions of American residents is irrevocable taxation without representation, something you would think ought to trouble the tea party minded.
Definitely what we don't need is a political focus on childish in-your-face insults to the President and the refusal of negotiations until next year after elections when Republicans hope to be in a better position to get their way.

Yes, we've already done amnesty before, and here we are again with the PC crowd trying make everyone feel guilty for wanting people to respect the law. What is different about it this time? How much do we hear about immigrants from Canada spilling over the border? Why do we read so much about the southern border being invaded? I think instead of pushing ourselves on the middle east, we need to concentrate our assistance to helping Mexico and other countries south of the border to take back their nations from the drug dealers, organized crime and corrupt police. We can help them reach their potential as nations and a people to become great countries of goodness and prosperity! Mexico can be a place where more people want to live and visit for vacations, a place that creates a growing economy through honesty and an economy based in capitalism, and not law-breaking! So let's start here with respect for the law. That includes our own President and Attorney-General. Start with securing our country inside and out. Let's get serious about protecting the sovereignty of our country.

Immigration activists fought for change to our laws in 1965. Before that, we allowed immediate families. Now the law allows extended families and millions of people are sponsoring their entire extended families. There is only so many green cards to go around. If you want to stop the wait, fight for change to the law and let's return to the immidiate family only sponsorship.
In 1986 1 million became 3 million, there is no question that it will not be amnesty for 11.5 million but 18-30 million receiving amnesty. Next time it will be even more. It has to stop somewhere, and it's better to stop it now, than let it get worse.
The idea is to give amnesty to those who have not committed any crimes except coming here illegally. However, id theft, social security fraud, perjury (i-9) and working illegally in the country are all felonies. We are being sold a deceptive argument for amnesty. Will they be required to reimburse those who's identities have been stolen? Will business have to pay for the depressed wages their illegal hiring has caused. Illegal immigration leaves a multitude of damage and victims in it's wake.

I have lived overseas and have many friends who have begged me to help them come to America. They have applied for visas. When they were denied, they stayed home. It is grossly unfair to them to reward those who are here in violation of the law. If you think otherwise, please tell me what I should tell my friends. That they should sneak into the country and wait for the next amnesty? What about their children? Is it fair to treat the children of those who didn't play by the rules better than the children of those who did?

A nice, non-dairy smoothie for a change. I like the addition of lime juice, but next time I will cut it in half as the drink was a bit too tart for my tastebuds. I made the leftovers into popsicles for my son. Thanks.

Is anyone able to post via the xmlrpc-API with trackbacks getting through it (I'm talking about trackbacks being send to another page, not other pages sendingt trackbacks to me)? There is a thread here on problems with trackbacks when posting with ecto. But it doesn't seem to be a specific ecto problem rather an API problem.
So, anyone out there who is posting through the API with trackbacks working? In my case trackbacks work fine when posting from the web interface but not from ecto or any other editor. Pings are OK, though.
Any ideas how to fix that?

Police probe Killington crashJanuary 21,2014Police probe
Killington crash
KILLINGTON — High speed and bald tires led to a two-car crash Monday morning, police said.
Police said 19-year-old John Chammat, of Cumberland, R.I., was driving west on Route 4 near the intersection of Route 100, when his 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee crossed the center line and struck a 2011 BMW X5 driven by Claire Anderson, 41, of Rowayton, Conn.
Police said Anderson sustained a possible injury to her hand. Both vehicles sustained what police called significant front-end damage and were towed from the scene.
According to police, Chammat was driving over the speed limit and his rear tires had almost no tread. The crash remains under investigation.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit," said the Senator, "is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. government can't pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our government's reckless fiscal policies.... Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that 'the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt limit."
George Soros courageously walked into the Cato Institute on Thursday to debate some of the nation's leading scholars of the Austrian School of economics.
Specifically, the billionaire backer of "regime change" sat down with Richard Epstein, Hayek expert Bruce Caldwell, and a moderator to discuss Friedrich A. Hayek's The Constitution of Liberty, a new edition of which was recently published by the University of Chicago Press.
Evidence for Double Dip is GrowingWritten by Bob Adelmann
Establishment economists and other economic cheerleaders were disappointed to learn that, despite the government's best efforts to revive the economy through Keynesian interventions and stimuli, the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) for the first quarter of 2011 was half the rate of growth in the last quarter of 2010.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) now predicts that the size of China's economy will surpass America's by 2016, far earlier than most mainstream economists have been forecasting. Some analysts ridiculed the Fund's prediction, but others warned that it could happen even sooner.
Constitutionalist Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas), the Chairman of the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy, is planning to hold hearings about the Federal Reserve's bailouts of foreign-owned banks during the economic crisis.

Custom Cat House
My dearly departed cat provided the inspiration for this latest project. I loathed his foam-and-polyester bed, so I decided to create an alternative before bringing home my next feline companions. I removed the shelf, sketched the design on its surface, used my drill and jigsaw to do the cut-outs, inset panels of pegboard and frosted Plexiglas, and hung the door with basic hinges. Inside, a central wall made from scrap plywood now adds support for the TV. Next, I'll install 1-inch pads covered with fabric left over from my rocking-chair reupholstery. And if the cats decline to use their duplex (or if I come to my senses about getting them), I'll just add two more pegboard panels and use it for storage.

Skip to comments.*Saluting Daryl, 'The Walking Dead's' Subversive Redneck Hero*
Posted on 03/05/2013 8:06:20 PM PST by virgil283
"The show's most noteworthy element is Daryl, the redneck rebel played by Norman Reedus. He's a southern boy to the core, .....
The "redneck" label is why Reedus' character is so subversive. Hollywood routinely diminishes southern characters, mocking their faith, their manners (or lack thereof) and other regional attributes. .... The character remains loyal to his brother, Merle (Michael Rooker), an unabashed racist who remains a threat to our heroes despite turning against the show's human villains early in the current season.....
Daryl is hardly a hormone-driven hunk. He's not much for romance despite the gentle advances from fellow survivor Carol (Melissa McBride), and he's the last character to sugarcoat the reality they all face.
"The show's heroes rely on Daryl's strength, his hunting skills and his knack for being in the right place at the right time. ..... None of this would be possible without Reedus's knack for embracing Daryl's culture without demeaning it. The actor, best known for the Boondock Saints franchise, doesn't exaggerate his roots, but he also won't let us forget where's he's from all the same. With one squint Reedus conveys the pain of living in a post-apocalyptic world as well as the sense he'll go down fighting no matter the odds. It's a terrific balancing act, one that gives the show's writers the freedom to make Daryl a superlative hero.
The series is famous for killing off key characters, but it's hard to imagine the writing team angering fans by dispatching Daryl to the hordes of hungry zombies.
The viewer outrage would be palpable, and it would be a blow to television to see such a groundbreaking character meet his maker"....
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
If Daryl dies, we riot.
I'm just saying...
He's just a good common sense redneck like you'll find all across rural America.
sighhhhh O thank you for giving my Darryl fix. I won't know what to do when this seasons ends, and the new one starts in October.
And I'd bet he's eaten squirrel all his life. And maybe even some coon and possum.
Can we sue for Emotional Stress if that happens?
That's an excellent write-up about Daryl. I know much more about him now than from the first season.
Thanks for pinging me on it, Virgil!
Is it me or was the most recent episode excruciatingly slow?
That long monologue of Morgan's is the first time the writers have seriously dropped the ball. I hope it's' the last.
If you watched from the beginning, the most recent episode is fully in the tradition of using the zombie apocalypse as the muse of human nature. It also sported the killer combo of the holy **** moment, and stands with S01E06, S02E06 and S02E12 as among the best of the show, IMO.
Though I really like the character and where he is going, but he did make an off-hand comment towards an effigy of Christ in a church.
I think he is from UK.
Yep, and a few before that too.
Way to much yakking, blah blah and feeeeelings, bah, and not enough zombie action. Napalm and stuff!
People enjoy characters that are all of a piece. They like subtlety and complexity, too, but the ones that pop are the ones with a simple enough hook. Daryl jumps out of the screen because he's different from the rest of the characters, besides Merle, but also because he's a fully formed type. He has integrity, in a manner of speaking. That is to say every part of him fits with the whole, and the audience notices that immediately.
His thoroughgoing redneckism allows him, also, to be one of the easiest to develop. For the less time spent establishing a character, the quicker you can make them do things against type. Which is a big part of compelling drama. Luring people to expect certain things, then to play out events consonant and dissonant with these expectations.
I met him about a year ago, he was pretty down to earth and totally not pretentious at all. Also, he is physically beautiful in person.
Im just saying..."
I'll be one of the first to pick up a pitchfork.
Thanks for the ping, virgil.
Well, it was slowER, in comparison to, say, the ending of the episode where the Governor attacked the prison. But I don't watch the show for nonstop zombie action. One of the things that makes the show special is the great character development, and it takes time, and a slower pace, to do that. Otherwise WD would be just another horror piece with cardboard, depthless characters.
A lot of viewers wanted to know what happened with Morgan, and I think it was appropriate to take an hour to show that. I found this video on the AMC website in which the actor, Lennie James, implies we might see the character again at some point. And he's another Brit!
People like Daryl, not only because he can get things done, but because he can get this done without losing his honor and his morality.
Daryl started out just like his brother Meryl, pretty bad guy, bad racist.
He's actually become "more human" and "more civilized" as civilization fell apart. That's why people like him.
In contrast, Mr. law-and-order Sherriff has turned into Shane (at least for now).
Stripped of civilization, Shane turned into well, a physcho killer.
Lori, Ms. Housewife, showed she was a a bitch that latched on to whatever most-alpha male came along.
"My daughter says if Daryl dies, she's done with the show. It's funny my daughter is kind of preppy dressing, an athletic brainiac. I guess teenagers always like the bad boy!"
I don't see him as a bad boy. He looks like a bad boy, but he doesn't act like one. Now his brother Merle, on the other hand, is a bad boy and I can't stand him.
Yeah, you're probably right. I think Daryl's going to have to "take care" of Merle at some point, if ya get my meaning!

Open Source 3D animation
You need good software and plenty of CPU power to create virtual worlds. Luckily for today's animators, powerful PCs are inexpensive, and some excellent animation tools are absolutely free.
Not so long ago, professional quality 3D animation required expensive workstations. The software they ran, for example Maya (Unlimited Version), cost more than US$ 15,000 early in 2002, and the software technology was hidden behind restrictive licenses. As hardware prices started to plummet, the software prices stayed too high for amateurs at first, and the tough licensing conditions looked like they were there to stay. For most people, 3D animation on home computers was just a distant dream. More recently, with the appearance of the first Open Source programs, this situation has changed dramatically, bringing affordable 3D graphics to the public, and opening up the underlying technologies to let developers produce a whole new collection of applications. The expression "7 degrees of freedom" was coined by the K3D project. It stands for the 6 degrees in 3D space and the additional freedom to distribute and modify source code. This article describes some of the best Open Source tools for 3D animation.

I found the Evolve theme, which I love, but there are a few things I need to change. Any chance someone might help me with this?
1. Is there any way I can get rid of the "search" box on header and posts pages? I just want to show the "Follow us" box on the right, instead of the "Search" box. In settings I just find "Search + Subscription", "Recents+Search + Subscription". If so, any way to place the "Follow us" box in the menu bar or above/below it (on the right)?
Could I make those social icons smaller?
2. Can I insert custom buttons in the posts sharing box? I'd love to get some extra buttons such as "Like" from Facebook or Google +1
3. I set the language to Spanish, but the spanish for "Search" is "Buscar", which does not fit the box size, so it says "Busca". Any way to fix this? Can I expand the box size? This would imply reducing the length of the "Type your search" field.
4. The phrase "Leave a comment" still showing in English. I tried editing the es_ES.po file with Poedit, but there's no field for that. How can I fix it? I could help translating into Spanish.
I know it's a lot to ask, but I'be really grateful because I have almost all set to start blogging
Thank you

I am using rsync to copy ~10GB of small files. What happens if the files in the source directory are modified while rsync is running?
rsync first scans the files and builds a list. so once the file is listed for sync, rsync will sync the latest change of file. but if the file is not in the list of files to be synced, which was built before starting the sync operation, then it will not sync it.
That depends if they are modified before rsync is running as well. As @Sachin said if they are not modified before the transfer then modifications during the transfer won't be picked up, however:

Tulloch gives up business role at First State
Angus Tulloch, star Asia manager at First State Investments, is stepping back as a managing partner but has no plans to retire or stop running his funds.
Angus Tulloch, the star Asia Pacific fund manager at First State Investments, is stepping back from a business role to focus on looking after his funds.
Tulloch, 62, has steadily built the Edinburgh-based team since the 1980s when he joined Stewart Ivory, which Colonial First State later acquired.
The company said he was giving up his role as joint managing partner to leave Stuart Paul, the remaining joint managing partner, in charge of client relationships and commercial affairs.
However, the veteran investor will continue in his role as head of Asia Pacific (ex Japan) equities, and continue to lead manage the First State Asia Pacific Leaders fund , a favourite of Citywire Selection, and the First State Asia Pacific fund . He will take on management of the Scottish Oriental Smaller Companies investment trust from April of next year.
Gary Withers, regional managing director for Europe, said the move did not signal a 'countdown' to retirement on the part of Tulloch.
'For some time Angus has said that he wanted to concentrate on the investment side,' said Withers. He added that as First State's Asian franchise had grown to include China and emerging markets, Tulloch had been drawn into attending more meetings in and outside the company.
Tulloch's decision to focus on his funds will relieve investors as it comes at an important time for the Asia Pacific. Tulloch has for some time expressed his concern about investor euphoria towards China and the fragile state of its economy.
Withers said Tulloch would continue to work closely with Paul and fund managers Martin Lau, Jonathan Asante, David Gait and Alistair Thompson, all of whom he has recruited. 'He is essentially the patriarch of that team,' said Withers.
Tullloch's team currently manages £28.4 billion in Asia Pacific and Global Emerging Market equity investment strategies.
The First State Asia Pacific Leaders fund is currently ranked third in the Asia Pacific ex Japan fund sector over five years with a total return of 80.7%.
