The city's new bicycle and pedestrian concept plan lays out $6.2 million worth of projects to be built in phases over the next 10 years and beyond.
"This is a foot in the right direction as far as making Anniston bike friendly," said Mayor Vaughn Stewart before the council voted. "You start with infrastructure, you adopt a plan, and you seek grants for the improvements."
Initial priorities in the plan, which should be undertaken within the next 3 to 3 1/2 years, include enhancing access to the Coldwater Mountain bike trail network from the city's downtown area with such measures as adding bike lanes along Alabama 202 and Noble Street to 4th Street.
The initial phase also includes construction of the southernmost mile of the Chief Ladiga Trail extension, from the multi-modal transportation center at 4th Street to 15th Street, along with trailheads at the multi-modal center and at Grove and 13th streets.
Less intensive measures in this early phase include creating shared-use roadways with road markings and signs throughout the downtown area, along with amenities such as bike racks.
The second phase of the program, to be implemented in years four through six, includes construction of the northern end of the Chief Ladiga Trail from Mike Tucker Park down to the U.S. 431 bridges and a connector bike path from the bridge to LaGarde Park, as well as a trailhead and other amenities in McClellan.
In years seven through nine, projects such as a Pipe Street connector to Coldwater Mountain, the construction of a bike trail from Blue Mountain rail depot to Norwood Park, and connecting the remaining 2.67 miles of the Chief Ladiga Trail will be undertaken.
Future projects would include a bike path from the Ladiga Trail to Summerall Gate Road, a 3.3-mile Blue Mountain rail trail that extends to Bynum/Leatherwood Road, a 4-mile rail trail from the multi-modal center to the Anniston Airport, and a 2.16-mile West Anniston Bikeway from Norwood Park to West 10th Street.
Jack Plunk, a principal planner with the East Alabama Regional Planning and Development Commission who administers the Metropolitan Planning Organization, said he was "really proud of Anniston because it's a big, ambitious plan."
Plunk called the plan "very progressive and very future-oriented."
The Metropolitan Planning Organization funded 80 percent of the $27,000 study, which Plunk said will fit right into the MPO's Calhoun area bicycle-pedestrian plan approved last year.
Plunk, who has been working with Anniston's Chief Ladiga Trail Task Force, said the 10-plus-year timeline is a little long for him, but he understands the city is trying to spread the cost over several fiscal years. He also noted attempts to incorporate the time it might take to acquire the right of way for the Ladiga Trail from the many property owners who live along the abandoned railroad line.
City Planner Toby Bennington said greater priority will be placed on projects that are most economically feasible and will have the greatest impact to downtown and other parts of the city.
"With the adoption of the plan, it will give city the opportunity with each year as it updates its capital improvement plan to identify projects to work with MPO to plug transportation funding into," Bennington said.
Bennington said there is flexibility in the plan to move more quickly or reprioritize certain projects if funds or property becomes available or other factors change.
"It's an opportunity," Bennington said. "It's not just about transportation…It's about community connection for economic development and quality of life."
Now that the city has a plan for bicycle-related infrastructure, the council will soon begin discussing bicycle safety measures, Stewart said. "It's all along path to make Anniston the bike capital of, I would say Alabama, but possibly the South," he said.

Feline Eye Cancer – Eyelid Tumors
Tumors form due to abnormal multiplication of cells and can be benign or malignant. Benign tumors are harmless and do not spread. Malignant tumors are progressive and characterized by an uncontrollable growth that metastasizes to other parts of the body.
Apart from the above mentioned properties, tumors can further be classified according to the category of the cells that they affect. Eyelid tumors are a less common type of feline cancer that mostly affects white-colored and older cats. They are also more prevalent among cats that remain outdoors in the sun for long periods of time.
Cancer in cats and dogs is a life-threatening condition that can originate in one part of the body and spread to the others. The issue with the condition is that the symptoms of cancer remain masked or hidden for a long time and surface when it is too late. The symptoms of liver cancer in dogs can remain hidden for a long time since they can be incorrectly diagnosed as digestive problems or parasitic infections.
Eyelid tumors, on the other hand, are usually visible to the naked eye and can be treated in their initial stages. Eyelid tumors should not be confused with nodules or masses that form due fungal infections and inflammations on the eyelid. Cat owners should watch out for the following symptoms:
- Formation of a mass on the surface of the eyelid or eyelid margin
- Ulceration or abnormal redness in eyes or in the area around eyelids
- Discharge of pus or bleeding from the eyes
- Excessive tears
- Frequent rubbing, blinking or squinting of eyes
- Exophthalmos, a protrusion of the eyeball from the socket
Diagnostic procedures for eyelid tumors are different from other types of feline cancer. Apart from blood tests, serum biochemistry, ophthalmic examination and a biopsy, your veterinarian may also advise some specific tests such as these:
- Fluorescein staining of the cornea - the use of a dye to color specimens for microscopic study
- A complete bacterial culture of the secretions from the eyes
- Cytological examination of fluid aspirated from the tumor or scrapings from around the eyelid
Treatment options for eyelid tumors depend upon the size they have grown to. Small tumors involve surgical removal. The remaining portion of the eyelid is sutured. Some typical small sized tumors respond to chemotherapy.
Another option that can be used as treatment for mast cell tumors is cryotherapy. Cryotherapy is the application of extreme cold to the affected area to destroy the deceased tissue. If large tumors encroach upon the surrounding tissue a complete removal of the eyeball may be required.
Preventing cancer is a difficult proposition. Eyelid tumors can be prevented and diagnosed earlier since they have marked physical symptoms that can be noticed early. An early treatment can save you a lot of worry and expense. At the same time, it will ensure a healthy and comfortable long life for your pet.

About Memphis Monroe
Memphis Monroe is a blonde haired and blue eyed pornstar who was born in New Orleans, Louisiana and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. She was a shy girl all through high school and only had a couple of long term boyfriends until after graduating. She worked in a popular restaurant that is known for big breasted servers and posed in their calendar too. She was fired when the company learned that Memphis had posed for a pantyhose website and did a strip tease using her work uniform. She began working in adult films shortly afterwards.
Appearing in Hustler Magazine she also performed in "Barely Legal 54" from Hustler Video in 2005. Her scene is a hardcore fuck scene where she dances around a stripper pole before sucking off costar Kyle Moore. They fuck in a few positions before he ejaculates on her face. Ms. Monroe appears on the cover of the DVD with the words "Starring Hustler Honey Memphis Monroe" right next to her large picture. She also appeared on the front magazine cover of their December issue. Later she would be signed as only the second ever Hustler contract girl.
In an interview that Memphis gave during her porn career she referred to herself as a simple down home country girl. The fact that she's doing porn now doesn't mean she's always been a slutty girl or anything like that. Very similar to a great many starlets she was a very shy and quiet person growing up and it took working in porn to give her a strong self confidence. Her family has been quite supportive of her career choices provided that she is happy and taking good care of herself of course.
Memphis Monroe ended up retiring from the adult entertainment industry after having appeared in more than 112 movies. She had a lot of porn fans and Twitter followers who were somewhat surprised by her decision and she stopped updating her social media sites around the same time. People have reported that she has gotten married and the couple have started a family. This leads some to speculate that she could perhaps return to the business at a later time so there are those who still hold out hope for a comeback.

Hi , my daughter is focused on academics without all the distractions Of co-ed .,also she has the opportunity to excel . Yes a new school had to grow But she is the first graduating class and I cannot be more happy as her grades and testing are hi . It was my daughters choice to apply As schools were not ready in New Orleans From Katrina . However , of I would have said to go to an all girls school I would have met resistance! Thank god & the power of prayer . I don't have to worry And she can think for herself . She has mention problems with staff BIT WHAT TEENAGER DOESNT THINK THEY KNOW IT ALL !!
I rate this school a D. I regret this choice of Charter school, and caution any potential parent considering Waverly. Students don't have a voice and school policies apear to be made up daily. We experienced too much unorganization, last minute communication, high faculty turn over of faculty, excuses, blame and apologies. a weight of displinary restrictions, which work well at destroying a female's self esteem. The school uniforms are absolutely too expensive and low in quality from one of the vendors. The atmosphere at Waverly is heavy and has contributed to my daughter dreading school. It like a job you hate but you have to work. Don't hinder your child by sending her to Waverly. This school has a lot of kinks to work out. I will be removing my daughter, can't do this again.
Waverly Academy is where my daughter has been for two years. I was excited about a single gender school with allowing my daughter to find and reach her full potential without the drama from the boy/girl issues. This is we have not been happy at all. My daughter has had three different teachers within three different subjects within the first nine weeks of schools and was placed in a higher grade level then she should have been in. Which in turn, did nothing for her self esteem as she struggled for the entire 9 weeks. The parent communication is very lacked and their website is never up to date. Try to log on to find a email address for a teacher and last years information if there. Not all the original requirements for the dress code are enforced and seem to change as the wind. Some can some can not. The Principal assured me she would get back with me, but I am still waiting. I work in public education but have been very disappointed this year and had hoped Waverly would be the change over public schools that our young ladies need to succeed.
Waverly Academy is where I have seen my daughter flourish from a shy, struggling student to a confident, intuative scholar who not only is surpassing my expectations but also is finding that the potential for her life is limitless. Yes there has been growing pains at the school, I do kind of wish that some of the requirements of the first year was reinstated, but our girls have the tools to succeed if we do our part as parents and become involved. Unfortunately some parents last year cared more about themselves than there girls. Our girls need their parents to be adults and provide the example in order to become the fine women that they will be.
As a former parent of a Waverly student I agree with some of both of the reviews. The principle from the first year was great, it was really sad to see him leave. The only negative thing I could say about the 2nd yr was about communication, parents need to be informed, and updated about changes. We hated to leave but my daughter will always miss her friends and great teachers. She started an average student and left on honor roll. She was enrolled in her current school in the honors program. The greatest thing Waverly taught me as a mother is the we as parents need to work as hard as the school does to make our children succeed.
Waverly Academy for girls is a school that will surely lower your daughter's self esteem. The faculty and staff makes up rules as they go. If there is an issue with your daughter and Teacher you will leave the situation feeling as though there is no hope because the Director does not protect the students only certain teachers that hold 3 or more positions at one time such as Teacher, Vice Principal, Dean of Culture etc.. The faculty and staff needs diversity training as well as a more diversified faculty.There is no structure. Each year there has been a new Principal and new Teachers. I was told the 2011-2012 Principal cared for the students and wanted them to succeed, which is why I chose this school. Unfortunately he is no longer there. The teachers and staff that cared about the Students were not invited to remain at the school or left for reasons unknown to the Parents or Students. I would not recommend this school to anyone.

The Novell Client software provides a workstation with access to Novell NetWare networks as well as Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES) services. Novell Clients can access the full range of Novell services such as authentication via Novell eDirectory, network browsing and service resolution, and secure and reliable file system access. More information about the Novel Client can be found on the vendor's site at the following URL.
Local exploitation of an input validation error vulnerability within Novell NetWare Client could allow an unprivileged attacker to execute arbitrary code within the kernel.
When the Novell NetWare Client is installed on a Windows based operating system, the driver nwfilter.sys will be loaded at system startup. This driver allows any user to open the device ".nwfilter" and issue IOCTLs with a buffering mode of METHOD_NEITHER.
The problem specifically exists because the driver allows untrusted user mode code to pass kernel addresses as arguments to the driver. With specially constructed input, a malicious user can use functionality within the driver to patch kernel addresses and execute arbitrary code within kernel mode.
Exploitation of this vulnerability allows an unprivileged local user to patch and execute arbitrary code within the kernel. In order to exploit the vulnerability, an attacker needs to be able to log in to the target machine and execute a specially crafted executable.
iDefense has confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in nwfilter.sys, file version 22.214.171.124, as included with Novell's NetWare Client 4.91 SP4. Other versions are suspected vulnerable as well.
iDefense is currently unaware of any workaround for this issue.
Novell has addressed this vulnerability by releasing patches that remove the "nwfilter.sys" driver. For more information, consult Novell's advisory at the following URL.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the name CVE-2007-5667 to this issue. This is a candidate for inclusion in the CVE list (http://cve.mitre.org/), which standardizes names for security problems.

We are in The Age of the Customer, where customers, not companies, are driving business decisions. For this reason, it is more important than ever for us to get to know our customers on a deeper level , and we can do this through data.
In a world where data is one of the fastest growing assets, most companies aren't short on it. Most of us can now know who our customers are and what they are buying and when and where . Today however, customers expect us to know why they are buying. Or why they aren't. Because when we KNOW our customers, we can serve them better.
Companies who gather multiple fragments of information about their customers are discovering game-changing opportunities and gaining huge competitive advantages.
But beyond just telling marketers what customers like and informing intelligent marketing strategies, data sets also provide critical insights into how we operate as individuals, as a community, government, nation and society.
It's time to assure you have your data strategy to capture the digital and other data available and the skills and capability to truly know and understand your customers experience and behaviour!
Those attending Smarter Data 2014 will be inspired on:
- data strategies to gain insights from customer interaction
- mining digital data
- becoming customer centric and ultimately gaining a competitive advantage through Knowing your Customer.

SOURCE Nelson Global Products
STOUGHTON, Wis., Feb. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Nelson Global Products Inc., a global leader in the design and manufacture of tube-acoustic-and safety and structural products for commercial vehicle markets, has announced a second recent acquisition in Brazil -- the newest being a structural tube manufacturer -- TuboPress, Araucaria, Brazil.
With 184 employees, TuboPress produces structural tube assemblies such as steps-ladders and many others used by agricultural and construction vehicle manufacturers, including Case New Holland, MGV Lifts, and MAN Trucks. The company, founded in 2003, is centrally located with close proximity to major commercial vehicle manufacturers. Paulo Kunzel, former owner of the business, will continue as the operation's general manager.
"We continue to execute our growth plan through strategic acquisitions as we broaden the Nelson portfolio of products made in the South American market," Sergio Carvalho, president of Nelson's On-Highway business unit. "We were impressed by TuboPress' growth and its close relationships with key customers which are market leaders."
TuboPress will also be the home of Nelson's new exhaust product line in South America.
"We're continuing to execute our strategic plan in South America and to expand our product offering," stated Tom Gosnell, CEO of Nelson. "Our large multi-national customer base will benefit from local availability regardless of where they produce commercial vehicles."
In May 2013, the company acquired Envall, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, which makes hydraulic and structural tubes, and low-to-high pressure hydraulic hoses.
Nelson Global Products is a portfolio company of Wind Point Partners, a private equity firm headquartered in Chicago. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
About Nelson Global Products
With 75 years of rich engineering and manufacturing history, Nelson Global Products designs, manufactures, and markets a broad range of high performance exhaust and tubular products for OEM and aftermarket use for the global on-highway and off-highway markets. These products include mufflers and silencers; exhaust tube assemblies; EGR and Thermal Management Tubing (TMT) for emissions systems; pressurized tube assemblies for air, hydraulic and lubrication; and structural assemblies.
The company's operations include corporate offices in Stoughton, WI, and manufacturing operations in Clinton, TN; Fort Wayne, IN; Arcadia, Black River Falls and Viroqua, WI, Morton, IL, Cambridge, MN; and international operations in Scoresby, Australia; Pune, India; Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and Changzhou, China.

Clean and Comfortable. Great value! – We stayed in a business class king bed room... cost $53.99 per night. This Econo Lodge has been recently renovated and upgraded... our room was very clean... roomier and better equipped (microwave/refrigerator) than most budget priced hotels we have used. Outdoor pool was nice and desk staff very helpful. Courtesy breakfast was OK... fresh fruit would have made it just right! We will definitely stay here again if we return to KC.
A well-known, mid-priced national and international hotel chain where kids always stay free. – In Short
Howard Johnson's story began in 1925, with an ice cream stand that soon became a chain of orange-roofed restaurants, and eventually motor lodges. Today, the hotels offer quality accommodations at value prices for families and business travelers. Comforts of Home amenities include in-room coffeemakers, complimentary weekday newspapers and more. Most locations offer Home Office rooms, with work desks and chairs, and Crayola Kids Rooms, with Crayola easels and accessories, plus a mini-fridge and microwave.

Best Buy announced on Wednesday it would remove a number of senior managers as part of its restructuring plan, but will it be enough to turn around the struggling retailer?
"At this point, it's going to be tough for anybody to come in and make the changes necessary to really make this business ever viable in the long-term future," said R.J. Hottovy, an analyst at Morningstar, on CNBC's "Squawk on the Street."
This restructuring does not necessarily come as a surprise given new CEO Hubert Joly's reputation for turning around companies, Hottovy said in a report on Thursday. He added that a "leaner organization will make it easier to initiate certain turnaround efforts."
Still, the company's warning of softer-than-forecast third-quarter results suggest that Joly faces an uphill battle in making the electronics company more competitive, the report said.
Best Buy faces several obstacles in its effort to adjust to increased consumer spending via e-commerce, including stiff price competition from Amazon.com, Wal-Mart Stores, and warehouse clubs such as Costco Wholesale.
"Right now, the fact of the matter is Best Buy just has too many stores, their cost structure is too bloated and they can't compete on a pricing basis," Hottovy said.
Manufacturers, such as Apple and Samsung, and wireless carriers including AT&T and Verizon Wireless, have intensified Best Buy's competition as they develop their own retail channels. As a result, they rely less on Best Buy as a distributor.
"You are still seeing distribution through Best Buy, but over the next couple of years, there is less and less incentive to go through this channel," he said.
Although Best Buy stock plummeted following the restructuring and guidance announcement, Hottovy does not plan on changing his $16 fair value estimate right now, even though the preliminary results "fell well short of our already pessimistic expectations and consensus expectations."
Morningstar analysts plan to wait until the company's analyst and investor event Nov. 1 to make any possible changes to their estimates.
Founder and former chairman Richard Schulze's efforts to take the company private also loom over Best Buy's restructuring efforts. In early October, a report indicated that Schulze and at least four private-equity firms have began examining the company's financials.
"While equity funding commitments remain the key question in bringing a formal offer to the board, we are starting to believe that current shareholders may be more receptive to Schulze's previously disclosed offer of $24 to $26 per share than we previously believed, based on the disappointing third-quarter results and today's sell-off," the report said.

The FBI has recently developed information indicating cyber criminals are attempting to once again send fraudulent e-mails to unsuspecting recipients stating that someone has filed a complaint against them or their company with the Department of Justice or another organization such as the Internal Revenue Service, Social Security Administration, or the Better Business Bureau.Information obtained during the FBI investigation has been provided to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). DHS has taken steps to alert their public and private sector partners with the release of a Critical Infrastructure Information Notice (CIIN).The e-mails are intended to appear as legitimate messages from the above departments, and they address the recipients by name, and other personal information may be contained within the e-mail. Consistent with previous efforts, the scam will likely be an effort to secure Personally Identifiable Information.
The nature of these types of scams is to create a sense of urgency for the recipient to provide a response through clicking on a hyperlink, opening an attachment, or initiating a telephone call.It is believed this e-mail refers to a complaint that is in the form of an attachment, which actually contains virus software designed to steal passwords from the recipient.

President Bush Announces 3 Trillion Dollar Budget3 Trillion Dollar Budget
This week President Bush announced he was introducing a 3 trillion dollar plus national budget. Do you have any idea how much 3 trillion dollars is?
I for one did not have a clue so I set out on a fact finding mission to try and put into perspective just how much a trillion dollars is.
First off I withdrew one million in $100 bills from my savings account. That was the first million I earned in life. The tellers were shocked and so was my wife.
I learned if you stack 1 million $100 bills on each other that stack is 4 feet tall. Doing the math I learned one billion $100 bills stacked on each other would be 4,000 feet tall. ONE TRILLION $100 bills stacked on each other would be 789 miles tall.
Put another way, 1 trillion $100 bills stacked on each other is equivalent to 144 Mt . Everest's stacked on each other. Three trillion $100 bills stacked on each other would stretch from the east coast to the west coast of the USA!
OK, now that you have an idea of what 1 trillion dollars is let's try and figure out how long it would take the average person to spend it. If you spent $1,000 a day it would take you just over 2.7 million years to spend one trillion dollars.
I used to get flabbergasted when the government spent billions of dollars a year on the annual budget. Now I am total blown out of the water when I think of the government spending 3 trillion dollars a year to run this country. What are your thoughts on this (besides saying I have too much free time on my hands to figure out this stuff)?
Had enough!
A picture is worth a thousand words. Enough said?
Why support Barack Obama
Why would you vote for Barack Obama when he won't salute the American flag? The flag of the country he wants to run!
Mind boggling - WAKE UP AMERICA!
Why support any candidate
I appreciate the comments made by each person who took the time to express themselves concerning the statement made about Senator Obama. (Why support Barack Obama)
I suppose like responses from those supporting Senator McCain would be given if I had written "Why support McCain he is too old." Or how about this one, "Why support Monica Lewinsky's boyfriends wife."
All are general statements made to invoke reaction(s) and many of you reacted in a rather predicable fashion. I, for one, was glad to see people rally to support their candidate. It showed compassion for that which you as individuals believe in. It showed that you as Americans are entitled to your opinions and was willing to go out on a limb and publically state how you felt about the generalized statement.
Stand up, be heard, and vote. That is the real issue. I am proud to be an American and to be able vote for the candidate of my choice.
Aren't you?

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

"Men by their constitutions are naturally divided into two parties: 1. Those who fear and distrust the people, and wish to draw all powers from them into the hands of the higher classes. 2. Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe, although not the most wise depositary of the public interests."

Barrage of Homers Lifts Saints Past Stillman College
– The North Georgia College & State University baseball
team used four home runs and another stellar pitching performance
from senior Chris Rearick to outslug Stillman College 16-10 Monday
evening in non-conference action.
The Saints improve to 2-2 on the young season, taking their second straight series opener, as the two teams will play a doubleheader on Tuesday afternoon to cap the three-game set.
North Georgia jumped all over the Tigers in the early going, using a pair of two-run blasts in back-to-back innings to take a 4-0 lead. Chad Sage provided the first homer in the second inning, while Andre Airich followed in the third inning with a bomb of his own, and his second of the season.
After the Saints tallied three more runs in the fourth, Troy Snitker came alive and launched a three-run homer in the fifth frame, scoring Chage and Brad Hall to give North Georgia a commanding 10-1 advantage. In the sixth, Snitker recorded his third long ball of the year, and second of the game, this time a two-run blast to cap a three-hit, five RBI day for the sophomore.
Sage would drive in North Georgia's final run of the game in the seventh, giving the leftfielder four hits in six trips to the plate and competing a four RBI performance. Stillman scored a single runs in the third and sixth innings before adding two in he eighth and six more in the ninth with the game out of reach.
Senior Chris Rearick (2-0) recorded his second straight near perfect performance, tossing 7.0 innings of three-hit ball, allowing two runs, one earned, while striking out twelve Stillman batters. Greg Fox made his North Georgia debut in the final two innings, allowing two earned runs while striking out three.

The idiot speaks. Thank you Nevada for sending this brain dead criminal to the senate.
Pure hypocrisy. Dingy Harry is beyond despicable.
#1, I would rephrase it as The king of the idiots
I think you should thank the Karl Rove wing of the Republican party, #1, for repeatedly stabbing Sharron Angle in the back during her run against Reid.
This makes two stories in a row on L.com of the liberals blaming Republicans. Why in the HELL don´t the Republicans fight?!
I don´t know what´s worse.1. The idiocy that comes from the mouth of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and their minions or2. The straight face reporting of the RAT infested media whores who can print this stuff.
Excuse me. Harry Reid came to the well of the Senate to say this, and left with no Senate business scheduled for the rest of the day! You can't make this stuff up.
#5 is missing the point. A Demon-RAT can say anything, and their minions in the MSM will blare it all over the nightly news and headlines of every major paper in this country.But the only places the Republicans can get any press when they try to fight back is on the Internet (on sites that are mainly read by other conservatives) and possibly on Fox news if it´s a really high-ranking Republican saying it.If there was anywhere close to an unbiased news media out there, this type of idiocy would never go unchallenged. But when the news media is in one party´s back pockets, it just seems like the Republicans aren´t fighting back. They are fighting, but nobody hears about it.
Hairy´s auto accident head injury worse than Hillary´s. Ge´s making less sense than usual. making
Just last week didn´t Harry refuse to consider a fiscal bill then adjourn to view Lincoln?Look old and we mean old turning senile should be removed progressive you are not a Republican and you committed the movie screening act . You are the fickle child like destroyer.
Thou do protest too much.Love to watch the Dimms and 0bama squirm.We should, however, make sure that the Dimms own this economy.
Harry Reid is probably one of the nastiest, disgusting people on the face of the earth. When will he retire??? The sooner he retires the better for the country. Reid your old, your senile and most of all your a disgusting pig.
#8 you are wrong. Every elected official has local media in their districts to get their side out if they wanted. Not to mention talk radio, the internet blogs or if they would have any balls they would demand and call out by name the national media for being skewed. Guarantee if they start a war with Brian Williams, they will get noticed.
The same Harry Reid who´s not allowed a house-passed budget to even appear on the Senate schedule?
We´re going over the cliff, Harry, and you´re first in line to take the fall.
Wait a minute. Didn´t I read that Harry closed down the Senate about a week ago so they could all see a screening of "Lincoln"?
And, what exactly has Reid done? He is a disgrace to the Senate. He has stupidly stopped anything that might advance US!I rest my case!
Watching their kids play basketball?! OMG!!
They´d be off the hook if they went to Hawaii and played golf.
Senator Pot, meet Congressman Kettle. Congressman Kettle, meet Senator Pot.
Did Harry Reid JUST discover that the BUSH tax cuts for all Americans expire? Everyone else knew but him?So, what´s your plan Harry? I want to hear the democrat plan.
#13 misses, and just buys into the lie-beral trap.I live in Austin. I know the state Republicans attack Demon-RAT hypocrisy on a daily basis. But get outside of Austin, and you never hear a word of that in the MSM. I have friends in Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and El Paso, and they all believe just like #13 that our Republican representatives just sit there and take it. They don´t. But they get no press.Listen to Hannity or Rush. They both have lots of Republicans on responding to Demon-RAT hypocrisy, but unless you listen to those shows or read conservative blogs, you never hear a world of that on the MSM.And, sadly, the MSM is still where the majority of brain dead voters get their ´´news´´ every day.As long as the MSM is a wholy owned subsidiary of the Demon-RATS, it will never be a level playing field. They will make every lie-beral sound like Job, and every conservative sound like a back water dufus. Spin, spin, spin.
THe GOP should adjourn until after the state of the union. Take some vacation, come back in Feb, meet for coffee, then adjourn and go back home.
Excuse me, #1. I am live in NV and I am not taking the blame for slimy Harry´s re-election. Only the brain dead and stupid voted for him.And, #4 is incorrect. Rove thought Angle could win and gave her a lot of his PAC money. He didn´t factor in Reid´s cheating and Angle´s running off of the mouth at various times.
Yes, #24. From what I remember, much voter fraud, mostly in Las Vegas, was what made Dingy retain his office. I´m thinking he wasn´t faring so well with all the voters except for the ones (illegals?) who were told by the union who to vote for or pack their bags. I don´t hate but I do come very close with him, Pelosi and Obama. It gets worse by the day.

|Prepare Your Home to Beat the Heat this Summer
|| Print |
Stay Cool While Spending less
Summer months can bring some of the highest energy costs of the year, with the high demand for air conditioning. Keeping your home comfortable can be expensive, but it can also be dangerous. If your air conditioner runs too often, it can stress your homes electric system and
put you at risk for shock or fire.
Even in summer, you don't have to sacrifice comfort to stay within your budget. Here are a few easily achieved cost saving tips:
Prepare you air conditioner for summer by cleaning it. Shut the air conditioner off, and clear away leaves and yard debris outside. Inside, clean or replace filters. Dust the fan blades if you can do so safely. Make sure air can flow freely over the inside and outside coils. IT is a good idea to call a professional to inspect your unit early in the summer.
If you are shopping for a new unit, look for one with the blue Energy Star label. An Energy Star air conditioner will save money in the long run by using less electricity. Your electric utility or state may have incentives for purchasing a more efficient model.

Re: Finite Simple Group (of Order Two)
Just about every line is a pun, but you have to understand some rather advanced concepts to get them. Don't worry if they go over your head though.
"In the real world, this would be a problem. But in mathematics, we can just define a place where this problem doesn't exist. So we'll go ahead and do that now..."
#3 2006-08-08 10:50:19
Re: Finite Simple Group (of Order Two)
Yeah, the only downside is that a lot of the stuff is college level. I'd define everything here but that would probably make it fail (like if someone doesn't get a joke and you have to explain it to them, it just isn't funny anymore). They must have done this around some math majors or something though, judging by the amount of laughs at just the right times.

Two questions about meditation. First off, is there any differences between the types of meditations? Such as breath meditation, mantra meditation, heart meditation. I own a copy of your Secrets of Meditation audio, and it seems each session is something different. Do they all result in the same thing, or is the effect of each of them different? My second question is that recently it feels like my meditation practice isn't as peaceful as it used to be. I can remember times when I would meditate and my whole body would feel calm, and when I would come out I would be peaceful and anywhere from just simple and happy to exuberantly happy (with the Chopra Center's 21-Day Meditation Challenge). Now none of that is there really. It feels like I am just sitting there repeating the mantra, and it feels the same as when I went in, or sometimes more aggravated over some things or thoughts when I come out. It's frustrating to say the least. Am I doing it wrong? I could use some advice.
Deepak's Response:
There are many types of meditation practices, breath ones, silent ones, visual ones, guided ones, standing ones, etc. Your mantra meditation is designed to give you the experience of your true self and in the process clear away the old conditioning that inhibits you from having that self-awareness at all times. The phase you are at now is temporary and indicates that you are clearing away some blocks and once they have been released your experiences will again be more deep and peaceful.

Sir ji, I do get giddiness while doing meditation by concentrating over inside of the nostrils.
Kindly suggest me to overcome the condition and how to be able to sit without any giddiness.
Part of any meditation practice is learning to accept one's limitations. Early on, there can be a great deal of discomfort and much questioning. This is normal and expected. The egoic mind resists letting deeper sources of insight rise into awareness. The ego battles centered states of consciousness out of fear of annihilation. Working past these obstructions takes time and commitment. The ego's goal is to get the Self to question the value of meditation and quit doing it. The response must be to persist despite the feelings of frustration and apparent lack of progress. Know that within the mind changes are taking place even if nothing seems to be happening. In due time the wiser Self will gain strength, and the ego will become less dominant. The goal is not to eradicate egoic consciousness, but to recognize it as a subsidiary part of the larger Mind. This takes time and cannot be deliberately forced. But it will happen with continued practice. Just be patient and continue…
I noticed that recently when my wife meditate her head is spinning.Could you guide me on this matter.
It's good sign or how?
during my meditation today I saw, in my mind`s eye, the statue of a Bhudda sitting beside me on my left.
Is there an explanation?
kind regards.

TUAW Review: Kanex HDMI + audio adapter works fine but costs extra
When we first heard about the Kanex HDMI + digital audio converter a few weeks ago, I was eager to give it a trial run and see if it managed to deliver on the promise of integrated audio with HDMI video. I've been playing with the $70 unit for a few days now, and the answer is a qualified yes: it...
Kanex brings digital audio into a Display Port to HDMI adapter
When we published our "Ultimate Mac mini Home Theater" guide in August, I drooled along with everyone else at the idea of supercharging my HDTV with a mini for movie and music playback. Something nagged at me, though, as I looked over the options for going from the mini's video-out ports (the...

Jesus Did It once and for all! The Bible tells us that "it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed (Isaiah 53:4-5).Christ suffered for our sins once for all time. He never sinned, but he died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but he was raised to life in the Spirit (1 Peter 3:18). Praise Jesus that we have such a merciful, gracious Savior!
