49 U.S. Code § 40112 - Multiyear procurement contracts for property
prev | next
(a) General Authority.— Notwithstanding section 1341 (a)(1)(B) of title 31 and to the extent that amounts otherwise are available for obligation, the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration may make a contract of more than one but not more than 5 fiscal years to purchase property, except a contract to construct, alter, or make a major repair or improvement to real property.
(b) Required Findings.— The Administrator may make a contract under this section if the Administrator finds that—
(1) the contract will promote the safety or efficiency of the national airspace system and will result in reduced total contract costs;
(2) the minimum need for the property to be purchased is expected to remain substantially unchanged during the proposed contract period in terms of production rate, procurement rate, and total quantities;
(3) there is a reasonable expectation that throughout the proposed contract period the Administrator will request appropriations for the contract at the level required to avoid cancellation;
(4) there is a stable design for the property to be acquired and the technical risks associated with the property are not excessive; and
(c) Regulations.— The Administrator shall prescribe regulations for acquiring property under this section to promote the use of contracts under this section in a way that will allow the most efficient use of those contracts. The regulations may provide for a cancellation provision in the contract to the extent the provision is necessary and in the best interest of the United States. The provision may include consideration of recurring and nonrecurring costs of the contractor associated with producing the item to be delivered under the contract. The regulations shall provide that, to the extent practicable—
(1) to broaden the aviation industrial base—
(A) a contract under this section shall be used to seek, retain, and promote the use under that contract of subcontractors, vendors, or suppliers; and
(2) this section and regulations prescribed under this section may not be carried out in a way that precludes or curtails the existing ability of the Administrator to provide for—
(d) Contract Provisions.—
(1) A contract under this section may—
(A) be used for the advance procurement of components, parts, and material necessary to manufacture equipment to be used in the national airspace system;
(B) provide that performance under the contract after the first year is subject to amounts being appropriated; and
(e) Cancellation Payment and Notice of Cancellation Ceiling.—
(1) If a contract under this section provides that performance is subject to an appropriation being made, it also may provide for a cancellation payment to be made to the contractor if the appropriation is not made.
(2) Before awarding a contract under this section containing a cancellation ceiling of more than $100,000,000, the Administrator shall give written notice of the proposed contract and cancellation ceiling to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate and the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure of the House of Representatives. The contract may not be awarded until the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date of the notice.
(f) Ending Contracts.— A contract made under this section shall be ended if amounts are not made available to continue the contract into a subsequent fiscal year. The cost of ending the contract may be paid from—
(2) an appropriation currently available for procuring the type of property concerned and not otherwise obligated; or

I hope I never see the Bruins win another President Trophy again. In fact I hope they finish in the middle of the pack and go into the playoffs on the road. Frankly busting your rear end to finish first just to say your the best team in the NHL means nothing. I think I can count on one hand that a team that finished first went on to win the cup.
Like they say just make it to the big dance and then anything goes.

Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) crews are prepared for the upcoming snow storm. Below is is an update for the various areas of the state.
Denver: Crews are not yet on snow shift as CDOT does not pre-treat highways in advance of a storm. According to the current forecast, rain will change over to snow in the Denver metro area around 12:30-1 a.m. Road temperatures are expected to stay above freezing for much of the storm. As a result, CDOT will go on partial snow shift at midnight with approximately 30 plows. At 5 a.m., we will go on full snow shift with 75 plows. Crews will then remain on snow shift, 12-hour shifts, until the roads are clear of snow and ice. Crews will be applying both solid and liquid de-icer as needed.
Front Range/Eastern Plains: Much like the Denver metro area, the remainder of the Front Range and eastern plains is expecting to see snow in the early morning hours. Most areas are going on snow shift at 5 a.m. tomorrow with some areas of the eastern plains starting at 8 a.m. In north/northeast Colorado, there will be approximately 100 snow plows working during the storm. In south/southeast Colorado including Castle Rock and Monument, there will be approximately 160 snow plows. Crews will be applying both solid and liquid de-icer as needed.
I-70 Corridor and Foothills: Crews are currently on snow shift with about 30 plows on the I-70 corridor between C-470 and Vail Pass and are applying both solid and liquid de-icer as needed.
High winds and poor visibility are possible tomorrow and motorists are strongly encouraged to call 511 or visit www.cotrip.org for current road condition information.

Former Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords has one word about gun violence in America: "Enough."
It's the second anniversary of the Tucson shooting rampage that killed six and wounded Giffords and 12 others.
The two wrote in an op-ed published in USA Today that they are launching an initiative aimed at curbing gun violence in the wake of the mass killing at a Connecticut school.
Giffords and Kelly met Friday with the families of victims in last month's shooting in Connecticut.
Kelly says the meeting brought back a lot of memories. He says: "You hope that this kind of thing doesn't happen again. And you know what? It does happen again."

The Way Destiny Goes
By Shammah Sraima Hart*
The way destiny goes,
sometimes is difficult to understand.
There is love in life,all the ups and downs
seek a way through to cover up to be able to bear.
To hold together what they had formed,all those years.
In various lives it becomes a habit to stay with the person
Only to start a new life ,I have reached this far
and so many years have passed by.
What more is there to explore.
But on one day my eyes become dark.
As shadow passing in front of me,that I did
not look back.
I got a power that I can't detect where it came from.
Suddenly I wanted to run, fly, lie down and roll over.
I did not want to see the night fall not to miss
your shadow which has given me the reason
and that the sun keeps shining for me to see it.
Because of this shadow I could not look back,
my ups and downs… I never did want to mention them.
I don't want to know about nothing that gives me headache.
A new adventure I wanted in my life, but all the hope I had left me.
I blindly follow that ghost to grasp it and make it mine,
see if I can move in the direction that it moves.
I thought with all my strength for him to stand and stop.
But all that I did, he did not want to become one with me.
He splited (?)and left me with all my new visions.
He left my presence,he left and did not want to know nothing
about me.
With all my pain I lifted up my head and looked in front of me
knowing that the shadow is not longer with me.
Again I see my ups and downs come up
Now I don't understand
Suddenly I did not know what it is I wanted
What is the reason?
Is this because I am tired of all the ups and downs?
Is it fbecause of the shadow that passed in front of me?
Or is it that I surely got tied?
Destiny,destiny who knows how my destiny will be.

He Found Me!
By Shammah Soraima*
I was lost and nowhere to be found
I was in the pit so deep that I couldn't be reached
I was so filthy, dirty and in a mess
But He found me
I was lost in the wilderness wanting to find my way home
I was wondering to and for didn't know where to turn
I was in a state where hope was nothing for me
I was at the point of no return and felt
No one could reach me
But He found me
I was crippled by life am dots situation
I was so far from where I belong
My folks tried to find and bring me home
But I was so dead and buried in the thumb of blindness
Like Lazarus, but yet I was living
Life became so lost and frustrating for me
But He found me
In my desperation of finding my way home
I stumbled into a word held me captive
I found a group whom I trusted
I thought they can help me
But I found my self bound in drugs
I became lost just as those I thought could help me
Life was meaningless
I felt I should end my life
But at the point of ending my life, cause all hope was gone
There He found me
At the points where no hands can reach
There He found me
For He said, His hands are not to short
That He can't reach me
It is just somebody that came on my way and told me
That Jesus loves me
He found me brought me home
to places flowing with milk and honey
To places of abundance and of life
Now I'm found and found indeed
Because Jesus found me
Ela Enkontra Mi
Mi tabata perdí i sin por a wòrdu hañá
Mi tabata den pos asina skondí
Ku mi no por a wòrdu mirá
Mi tabata asina fis i shushi
Pero E a haña mi
Mi tabata den desierto buskando kaminda pa kas
Mi no tabata sa unda pa bai
Mi tabata den un situashon
Kaminda speransa no tabata nada pami
Mi tabata na punto pa kaba ku mi mes
Mirando ku niun hende no por a yudami
Pero E a haña mi
Mi tabata asina leu for di kaminda ku mi méster tabata
Bida a bira nada pami
Mi a haña mi den un situashon
ku nunka mi por a pensa di haña mi
Esnan ku a bisa mi ku nan por yuda mi,
A guiami na droga, frustrashon i detenshon
Sin sa kiko mas pa hasi
Pero E a haña mi
Mi ker a mata mi kurpa pa asina mi tin sosiegu
Pero na e momentu ku mi a pensa ku ta basta
Señor Hesus a papia i bisa mi
Ku Su mannan no ta kòrtiku pa toka mi
Hesus a trese mi bèk kas
Ta un hende a yega, djis bisa mi, Hesus stima mi
Ku mi a bira i sigui e kaminda di lechi i miel
Speransa mi a haña den dj'E
Un bida nobo ma enkontrá
Hesus a haña mi.

Change your negative thoughts
By Shammah Soraima*
Did you know that sadness can make you sick, sadness in your heart, in your being, pain in your chest?
You are hurt, because your partner failed you and you became sour in your heart, now is the time to let go.
Let us be quiet for a moment. God created us and gave us authority to dominate.
What is it you believe in?
If you stop thinking negative and start thinking positive you will see the energy growing within you.
Negative thoughts create sourness, sadness and pain.
They block the flow of energy.
That is why you feel depressed and have heavy headaches.
Your shoulders burn, your muscles are tight.
Because oxygen cannot flow freely into your veins!
But feel the difference when you create new and healthy energy.
Think positive; do not play with your health as you only have one life and the second life is in Glory with the Spirit.
But now that you are in the flesh, wake up and enjoy life.
What can be more glorious than a healthy life and the hope to achieve everything you set your mind on?
If you need to talk, please feel free to call me.

The Osu song*
I am an Osu
therefore I am the earth's rejected;
therefore I am the scorned undergrowth of the forest;
therefore I am the teeth set on edge by sour grapes
I know nothing of, let alone eat.
I am an Osu
therefore I am isolated in the midst of a crowd.
I am an Osu
therefore I can warm a bed but never sleep permanently
in the bedowner' s arms;
therefore I can live in a society but be societyless;
therefore I can love but not be loved;
therefore the holy writs,legislations and exhortations
will not wash off the accursed stain of my pedigree
running a-deep in my veins,
the veins of one set apart from his fellows.
I am an Osu
therefore the new religion and laws are my fortress,
the fortress that withstands the daily siege of the hoary antediluvian past
the battering-rams of tradition;
the cannons of culture;
the muskets of custom;
the war-machines of convention.
Alas, where do I seek protection?
I stand in the midst of my fellows
seeking to be one with a people
who alienate me by the stroke of the gods,
gods they disdain by day and revere by night.
Where do I stand?
Yet in the innermost chambers I rejoice
for every dark night must bow to the azure of the morning,
the morning of the Osu' s liberation.
*Osu (Igbo): a prevalent caste system among the Igbo of Eastern Nigeria.
He wrote a letter
Out of the trenches, out of the foxholes
as the planes delivered their goods of death
as the azure morn turned hellfire-red
as the stoutest hearts became carrion for vultures
and heaven and earth wept in death
he wrote a letter.
Out of the cockpit, out of the seatbelt
as the flying coffin ate up the sky
as the co-pilot pressed the 'Detonate' button
and the deluge of death drowned the damned
he wrote a letter.
Under the flash of the truck's headlights
as the sprightly lieutenant donned fatigues
as the sergeant passed out M-16s
as the troopers patterned their death marches
he wrote a letter.
A letter to Suzzie:
'My love, if I do not come back,
kiss another lip, another's bed warm,
hug another heart, another's dreams fill;
out here we die, not for our hearts, but for those
who beat drums they do not dance to.'
*Henry C. Onyema (also spelt Onyeama) is a teacher and writer in
By Uche Peter Umez*
Vultures circle overhead
Eager to pierce the bloated bellies
Tanks rumble like elephants
Eager to crush men and huts
Soldiers prowl back and forth
Eager to butcher another civilian
Little boy wears a face like mask
Eager to snatch the dead man's rifle
I saw you - bloodied arms flung over head
Face battered and bruised
Your voice humming a toothless strain
Below the whish and crackle of their whips
Cutting welts of agony deep into your heart
As the fire flick-flashed its tongue over your body
Curled up on the ground
The sun blazed on
The wind warmed my face
Then I turned away
Considering a Janjaweed
Convulsive melodies from the tangled shrubs
Weeping through muddled waters
Whisk blood in my head
In the mirrors of fast amoebic eyes
I try to mend the shards of memory
Of innocence -
The boy who trapped fish for pleasure
Frisk eggs in fish's bellies
His laugh breaking in the great white sun
Fruitless it is to detach him from the man of the desert
Nurtured by fanatic milk
Riding the dark with jolly Janjaweed
Quenching lamps of peace in dwellings of teeming civilians
I stalk slow firewood -
Fetching girls as rabbits plunge quick fingers into their pubic lips below
Slit stubborn mothers' wombs as though some magic egg will spill forth
In defiance to the wildfire of ideology
Or distil me perhaps into phoenix glory

Yes, that very spot
that He was born?
Do they know that the grenade desecrates the manger
where the baby's head rests on a pile of winter grass?
The rocket, dropping from a stratosphere of hatred,
drowns the hosannas of the celestial choir on that cold Christmas morning?
The flamethrowers, the bombs and the bomblets,
pierce the pacific soil with the pulsations of war.
On the day the heavenly sentinels announced:
'Glory be to God in the highest
And on earth peace and goodwill to all men'
a shiny sword was unsheathed from a scarlet scabbard.
Why do they pollute the manger with something worse than sheep's droppings?
It matters not if they call Him Isa, Jesus or Joshua.
Their tongues blaspheme the name
for their hearts and hands are sticky with discord.

Come Home
By Henry Chukwuemeka Onyeama*
You who wander in the alien's land
You who close your ears to the homeland's sirens
come home.
You who dance to the rock' n roll of destiny
You who cherish another's homestead
and close your eyes to the dense jungle in your ancestral shrine
come home.
Yes, come home
though the roads are blessed with potholes
though the taps overflow with mud
though the Power Holding Company holds power with the anarchic fury
of a sick stabilizer
though piss-eyed cops snuff out the dreams of fresh saplings
though your libraries are as dusty and empty as Vandals-ravaged relics
come home.
Come home to your heart's soil.
No, no, no.
Patriotism' s song is not survival' s package.
We live to love.
Our homestead' s fire has been put out
extinguished by those who would build mansions
over our ancestral shrines for themselves alone
ravaged by those who steal our patrimony
off our fathers' backs.
Where is the homeland's spirit
when the homeland' s jaws are agape for our blood?
Nay, the alien land welcomes us with open arms.
To it we go, to be one what our souls want us to be.
*Henry C. Onyeama was born in
The coat of arms
It is as though,
that black shield that once protected us
from the spears of dearth
is rusted, shattered and broken
And now those spears pierce flesh and bones
It is as though,
those sparkling rivers of golden pearls
that once met in lokoja, whispering life
with every dancing tide
now meet in lokoja just to wash down to delta
It is as though,
the eye seducing garden field
where white horses once stood-
plump, pinkish brown pigs now stand
fore-arms- supporting that shattered shield
and moving their snouts around the wreath of that life saving soil
Their hooves trample over the Costus Spectabilis;
damaging the beauty of the terra-firma
as they struggle to stand upright in the pose like horses
It is as though,
a scrawny vulture with brownish measly feathers
has taken the place of the red eagle
that has flown away; southward
It is as though,
the faces of unity, faith, peace and progress
are covered in pig dung.

U-Boat Classico Watches
The U-Boat Classico collection are a line of extraordinary watches with a unique design that makes them boldly stand out. The first defining feature on the U-boat Classico watch is the "Left Hook", a unique crown guard placed on the left hand side of the watch, initially designed so divers could have full hand motion. The oversized case on the U-boat Classico watch makes it extremely accurate to read and makes the style easily recognizable. the U-boat Classic collection of timepieces are available in two different sizes of 45mm or 53mm with either a luxurious alligator leather strap or a sporty hypoallergenic rubber strap. U-Boat Classico watches have an ETA 2824 automatic movement, with an estimated power reserve of 40 hours.
U-Boat precision watches are designed by Italo Fontana and are handcrafted in Italy. U-Boat watches were originally designed in 1942 for U-boat officers and Italian Air Force pilots, to be easily read but hard to destroy. Italo Fontana's grandfather, Ilvo Fontana was asked by the Italian Navy to create a watch that was large enough to be seen under any light or weather condition, but the order was never finalized. The designs were kept in the family for over 60 years. In the year 2000, Italo Fontana used the designs to launch U-Boat luxury watches. U-boat began a meteoric rise to popularity in 2002, especially for people interested in military-type watches because of their strength and bold designs.
Watch Collections Manufactured By U-Boat Watches
Classico, Flightdeck, Nightvision, Thousand Of Feet
U-Boat Watches
Originally designed for airplane pilots and u-boat crew use, U-Boat has taken direction from the past generations and incorporated a modern vision. Arguably the largest luxury watches on the market, a U-Boat watch is ruggedly built not only in face-size but in thickness as well. Their sleek, almost dangerous designs evoke images of the submarines for which they are named. Dexclusive carries the latest collection of U-Boat watches, including Classico, Flightdeck, Thousand of Feet, and Nightvision all on sale.

Africa is home to the largest land animal in the world (the elephant), the longest river in the word (the Nile), the oldest human fossils (Ardi, a 4.4 million year old skeleton found in Ethiopia), and several wonders of the world (including the Rift Valley and Victoria Falls). It's an amazing continent, and one we're very fortunate to know like the backs of our hands.
Nevertheless, Namibia still manages to surprise and enchant us with its breath-taking natural wonders. From the shipwrecks on the Skeleton Coast to the pink and orange towering dunes of Sossusvlei, this land is more like a dream than anything else. Care for a taste of a Namibian safari? Here are just a few of our favourite facts about Namibia… careful, they're sure to whet your appetite for the real thing!
- The Namib Desert is between 80 million and 55 million years, depending on which geologist you talk to. Either way, the Namib is the oldest desert in the world.
- The "Moon Landscape" is an inhospitable area of the Namib that is formed by granite which pushed up from the Earth's crust some 500 million years ago.
- Namaqualand is arid and dry for the majority of the year, but in spring a sudden transformation occurs: hundreds of thousands of orange and white flowers bloom, transforming the dry, empty land into something more often seen through a kaleidoscope.
- The Fog Beetles, endemic to the Namib, have backs covered in hydrophilic bumps and hydrophobic troughs. These cause humidity from the morning fogs to condensate into droplets, which roll down the beetle's back to its mouth.
- The Skeleton Coast can experience more than 180 days of thick fog a year, hence the name—more than a thousand shipwrecks litter this coast.
- Ships wrecked on the Skeleton Coast can be found as much as 50 metres inland, as the desert slowly moves westwards into the sea.
- The dry inland of Namibia is home to baboons, giraffes, lions, black rhinoceros and springbok, all of whom get most of their water from wells dug by the baboons or elephants.
- In April 2008, a 500-year-old shipwreck containing Iberian coins, bronze cannons, copper, and ivory was found in the Sperrgebiet (a region on the Diamond Coast).
- Southern Namib comprises a vast dune sea with some of the tallest and most spectacular dunes in the world, ranging in color from rose pink to deep red to vivid orange. In the Sossusvlei area, several dunes exceed 300 meters (984 ft) in height.
- Namibia's Succulent Karoo, a portion of the Kalahari Deset, is home to fully one third of the world's succulent plants—nearly half of them are only found in the Succulent Karoo.
- The bizarre Welwitschia plant—with its strap-shaped leaves that may grow several meters long—is considered a living fossil, and is found only in the Namib Desert.

Colorado Springs City Council will vote today on an ordinance to ban panhandling downtown.
This will be the second vote on the no-solicitation ordinance, which means if it passes it will take effect next month.
If passed, the punishment for solicitation would range from a verbal warning for a first offense to fines and possible jail time.
The first vote came on Nov. 13 after hours of discussion and public comment.
Those in support of the ordinance say it will help make Colorado Springs more inviting. Those who oppose it say it could force the issue into neighborhoods, including Old Colorado City.
Provisions in the ordinance include a ban on solicitation in downtown Colorado Springs. As far as solicitation city wide the ordinance creates a mandatory distance of 20 feet from the front door of a business. A second ordinance extends the ban to state highways within the city, to include Highway 24 on the city's west side.
Anyone caught in violation of the ordinance will first get a verbal warning and explanation of the rules. A second encounter will usually mean a written warning. Further infractions could lead to fines and possibly time in jail.
Council members also agreed to re-visit the ordinance in five months to determine if it needs further review or modification.

Color Interplay
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
Introducing color into a space can be powerful. Color creates definition and enlivens an environment, whether found in a lovely pillow, a piece of furniture, or integrated as an architectural element. Stevens Lawson Architects designed The Hot Water Beach House and created this beautiful stained glass window effect by introducing colored glass, within the window wall system. It is a beautiful example of the impact that light and color can create. The interesting thing about this installation is the movement within the space. While walking down this corridor in the morning, one would enjoy a dazzling display of color. While passing by later in the day, the space would appear very different, as the movement of sunlight would create a whole new artful display in the space. What a wonderful gift. An evolving exhibit of color.

Coach's Guide To Interacting With Parents
Apr 26th
Posted by Administrator in Tips
Being a coach can be hard enough without parents becoming an issue. But the fact is that a good parent-coach interaction is important to the team's success.
Most parents are very supportive and try not to complain. Furthermore, most issues are non-issues and have a way of working themselves out over time. If you are well-organized, coaching well, are modeling great sportsmanship and your teams are competitive, you won't hear many complaints.
Many parents are simply misinformed, don't really understand the game or just love to complain. The bigger issue is usually the "player agents"… akin to stage moms. These parents believe More >

i don't think so...we understand the matter differently..for me, as a chessplayer, you can only say that you have solve it if you were able to see the key move and presicely calculated all collateral variations arising from it.
and i guess you did not able to solve it coz you suggested 1.Kb2?
What a strangely rigid definition of 'solve' - I guess once you make a mistake it is impossible to solve it, even when you give the correct key and all variations. :)
.....and i guess bigdoggproblem had problem understanding what i posted.
what i said:
"for me, as a chessplayer, you can only say that you have solve it if you were able to see the key move and presicely calculated all collateral variations arising from it."
bigdoggproblem said:
I guess once you make a mistake it is impossible to solve it, even when you give the correct key and all variations. :)
I'm sad becoz he did not understand the line "precisely calculated all collateral variations".. How can you make a mistake if you are precise in your calculations huh???!!!!
I put it into an engine. Analysis says "#-3 (Mate in 3)"All the suggested variations to get out of it fail.
Looks like I will have to go a tad more slowly.
Let's start with: "give" and "calculate" don't mean the same thing. :)
So you are saying that we are supposed to calculate ALL the possible moves to "solve" a puzzle ?
Example : mate in one.
You did not "solve" it if you didn't see the five mating moves, and the fact that 1.Qb3 draws, according to your definition.
i guess you have to read and understand thoroughly what i have posted.. what i meant "calculate all the colateral variations".. these are the variations you have to calculate after you have given the key move..in order to prove that you have comppletely solved a puzzle, you have to analyze all variations that would arise depending on black's reply..
Which one, precisely, is not given in #19 ?
Yikes...moving on...
- not #19, but your comment in #11 which suggests 1.Kb2??? which according to you can give mate more reliable..the key move you suggested is wrong, thus follows the variations as well.
Her plan is to post a comment every one or two days so her topic comes in the "Most Recent Posts" section at different times of the day, hoping that she gets more viewers. Ignore it.
- well, honestly i dont have such plans in mind..i posted this puzzle to challenge evryone who viewed it if they can solve it,..and that is all. i dont consider it as an honor that this may be included every week as "most recent posts", i would rather prefer to achieve a higher rating by playing chess in this site to prove something- and that I call honor.
If I follow your reasoning :
1-None gave the full lines in the same post, except Irontiger.
2-Irontiger got the puzzle wrong at first.
3-Thus, the puzzle is not solved.
Do you see a problem ? No ?
1-None has managed to create a fire, except Gronk the cavesman who put together the idea of silex from Hurk the stone carver and the idea of hitting from Durk the hunter.
2-Gronk the cavesman failed when he first tried clay instead of silex.
3-Thus, fire has not being invented yet.
Now I understand Sharrocks (#32) was true, and I will follow is advice. It was a pretty puzzle, but your trolling ruins it all.
there were more variations in it..tnx for liking it.

Church Militant: Ann Coulter on God, Faith, and Liberals
The conservative pundit explains why liberals are 'godless' and why she considers herself a good Christian.
Ann Coulter, a constitutional lawyer turned conservative pundit, makes her living saying outrageous things about what she deems the outrages of the left. She is the author of five best-selling liberal-bashing books, including her latest, "Godless: The Church of Liberalism
," in which she argues that liberalism is a form of atheistic religion. Beliefnet editor Charlotte Allen recently interviewed Coulter via email.
You title your book "Godless." Are all liberals atheists?
No, but it increases the odds.
What portion of liberals would you say are religious in the more conventional sense of the word: Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, even Wiccans?
Hmmm, so you consider Wiccans "religious... in the conventional sense"? That would definitely get liberals' numbers up! I'd have no way of knowing, but make no mistake: Liberals are everywhere, in every religion, denomination and spiritual practice--especially Wiccans!
We've done some polls here at Beliefnet, and a surprising number of Democrats at least say they are religious. Some 61 percent say they pray daily and 72 percent attend worship services once a month or more. How would you explain that?
Just curious: What percentage of them know which Testament the Book of Job is in?
When you say that most liberals don't believe in God, what is your evidence? According to a Fox News poll last year, 92 percent of Americans believe in God. And nearly half of Americans voted Democratic in the 2004 election. So doesn't that suggest that most liberals do believe in God?
First let me say that I think it's terrific to hear a journalist citing a Fox News poll as authoritative evidence and would like to encourage this development. I don't say "most liberals don't believe in God"; I say liberalism is a godless religion. Some liberals don't understand the underlying religious dogma and principles of liberalism--if they did, they would flee the building.

The Shoreline Community College Women's Soccer Team defeated Whatcom Community College on Wednesday at the SCC Soccer Field 1-0. Newcomer Chantel Avila scored in the 89th minute to pull out the victory for the Lady Dolphins. Avila from Eisenhower High School in Yakima, WA, had just joined the team on Monday. Goalkeeper Kaitlin MacKenzie recorded the shutout for the SCC squad.
SCC is now 5-6-1 on the season, 2-6-1 in the NWAACC Northern Region, but with the win, pulled into a tie with Whatcom for third place in the league and the top three teams in division go to NWAACC playoffs. SCC plays Edmonds on Saturday at the SCC Soccer Field in the final home game of the season for the squad. Match time is noon.
Kaitlin McKenzie, sophomore goalkeeper from Lake Stevens High School, was named the SCC Women's Soccer Player of the Week for her efforts in the 2-0 loss against Everett Community College last week. McKenzie only gave up one goal (first goal in game was defensive goal) to the Northern Region top team.
The shorthanded Shoreline Community College Women's Soccer Team dropped a 2-0 game to Everett CC on Wednesday at the SCC Soccer Field. The Lady Dolphins were without three suspended players for the game due to the breaking of team rules. The game was tied at half and SCC had played even with the Trojans in the 45 minutes, but ECC put the pressure on the second half and punched through with two goals.
SCC is 4-6-1 overall, 2-6-1 in the region while Everett moves to 7-3-1 overall and 5-2-1 in the region. Shoreline hosts Whatcom Community College next Wednesday at the SCC Soccer Field in a 2 pm contest.
The Shoreline Community College Women's Soccer Team broke a 2 game losing streak and defeated Skagit Valley College 4-0 on Saturday at the SCC Soccer Field. Stephanie Lim scored two goals and Jenny Voss and Desiree Nickell added a goal each as well.
The Community College of Spokane scored in the 19th minute and made it stand up as the Lady Dolphins could not muster a goal against the Lady Bigfoot defense.
SCC is now 3-4-1 on the season and 1-4-1 in the Northern Region standings (Eastern Region Crossover games count in Northern Region standings this season). SCC opens its Northern Region schedule on Wednesday against Edmonds CC on the road and on Saturday, against Skagit Valley College at the SCC Soccer Field at noon.

The 69th Street Diner
this wiki
- "The pie here will warm anyone's cold heart. Stop in for classic diner fare as you wonder why it's on Bart Street."
- ―GTA IV Manual Description
The 69th Street Diner is a restaurant located at the intersection of Bart St. and Mohawk Ave in Hove Beach, Broker, Liberty City. Niko Bellic can buy food there to replenish his health. Niko can take his friends or girlfriends out to the diner for a meal. The diner is featured in the website www.peepthatshit.com.
The 69th Street Diner on the outside, has a somewhat worn down "50s style" appearance. Inside, there are several booths and stools which maintain the style as well. Usually, several armed and unarmed occupants are present; the ones that are armed only use them when Niko opens fire on them or others.
There are two entrances to the diner, a side entrance and a front entrance, which faces Mohawk Ave and it is a standard design for majority of the retro diners with sterling streamliner design.
Outside the diner are several well armed Russian Mafia members that will attack the player if he fires a gun.
Mission appearance
In the mission Out of the Closet, Niko plays along with a romantic dinner then kills Tom Rivas at the diner for Brucie because Tom had borrowed some money from him and was refusing to pay it back.
- This is Terry Thorpe's favorite place to eat because of a hot waitress.
- This is Michelle's favourite place as it's 'simple'; this is a good way of getting her 'Like' up high.
- Like a few other locations in the GTA series, it bears a reference to the 69 Sex Position.
- The diner is not located on 69th Street. In the official GTA IV game case booklet, "Liberty City Guidebook", states that the diner is actually on Bart St.

Contemporary times.
During the search of a crime scene in an apartment of a building located on 4th Avenue, where three victims were found violently murdered, a police inspector discovered a strange and somehow disturbing map in a folder. The map, designed by one of the victims, the owner of the apartment, depicted the Southern District of the city as a blood reserve. The various elements collected by the police showed that the man claimed to be a vampire of Clan Sepharet and the file was intended to be sent to a Elarnyes, Prime Circle Sepharet.
I started with the basic city layout.

That's a good horrific idea ! I guess the Blood Bank or the main hospital will be the center of it all
Thanks Not the center but part of it yes
Cool idea! Glad to see another entry this month as well.
That's very cool. Not sure how well it fits the primitive theme, but very cool nonetheless.
Thanks guys, yes I focused on the "monster" thing rather than on the "primitive" thing. But well another map this month can't really hurt, right?

Environmental Allergy (Allergic Rhinitis) and Hay Fever Medications
What Are Allergies?
An allergic reaction occurs when the immune system responds in an abnormal fashion to a substance that is foreign to the body. The immune system normally protects the body from harmful agents like bacteria and toxins. The body's abnormal response to a substance that is usually harmless (called an allergen) is called a hypersensitivity reaction, or an allergic reaction. Generally, these reactions are due to interactions between the allergen and the family of proteins, IgE (immunoglobulin E), resulting in activation of cells in the body called mast cells and basophils. These cells release chemical messengers in the body that cause the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
Many substances in the environment can become allergens but only in genetically susceptible people. Dust mites, molds, animal hair or danders, pollens, medications, foods, and insect venoms are examples of common allergens. Reactions may be in the nose (hay fever), eyes (conjunctivitis), chest (asthma), or it can be systemic (anaphylaxis), meaning it can involve the entire body.
Allergic rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal membranes (along with membranes of the eyes, eustachian tubes, middle ear, sinuses, and throat) due to an allergic reaction. It is the most common cause of inflammation in the nose (rhinitis). Approximately 20% of the U.S. population is believed to suffer from allergic rhinitis.

text: One man, sans sight, trains for 100-mile ultramarathon Running 28 February 11 by Simon Wheatcroft Simon Wheatcroft Editor's note: Simon Wheatcroft lives in Doncaster, England, and has been registered blind since he was 18 years old. That's because Wheatcroft, now 29, has been diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative eye disease that essentially breaks down the cells composing the retina, a layer of optical tissue that helps convert light images and visual cues before sending them on to the brain. There is no cure, but that hasn't stopped Wheatcroft from continuing with one of his great passions: running.Moreover, Wheatcroft is now committed to running the Cotswold ULTRArace.100, a 100-mile ultra marathon that starts on June 24 and ends the next day.This is the first in a series of semi-regular guest posts, where Wheatcroft will describe the challenges and triumphs he encounters as his training regimen continues. For more frequent updates, please check out his personal blog at AndAdapt.com In this installment, Wheatcroft reflects on how his use of various apps -- RunKeeper, in this instance -- has helped him get back to serious training.Being blind introduces a number of challenges in my daily life; certain tasks can only be completed with support or guidance. I won't bore you with the psychological effects and the stressors involved. I will just say it's stressful.Running is my way to alleviate stress; concentrating on my breathing and pace allows me to drift away. Historically, I used a guide runner to aid with my running, as running on the roads and blindness are a dangerous mix. I began using RunKeeper while I had my guide runner, and it gave me a great sense of control. The audio cues allowed me to feel in control of my pace and to not rely on input from my guide. This, frankly, felt great. For the first time ever, I was able to give pacing information to my guide rather than the other way around.Then I lost my guide runner. With university calling, he moved to another city and I was left with one option: the treadmill. Now, the treadmill at first would appear the ideal solution. After all, it offers a very low risk of death. But the treadmill itself offers a number of issues that removed control from me and placed it into the hands of a guide. The majority of treadmills now feature touchscreens -- pretty useless to someone who is unable to see the screen. I wouldn't be able to change speed or incline, and I wouldn't know how far I had run or, indeed, for how long. I could, of course, have used Nike+ for this information, but it wouldn't solve the actual operation of the treadmill. Read page 2 12 Read on one page Latest on wired.co.uk

Despite rallying to pull within one run in the top of the seventh inning, a play at the plate ended Oldham County's season Monday night as they were defeated 3-2 by rival South Oldham in the opening round of the 29th District tournament.
Braden Johnson earned the nod for the Dragons and didn't disappoint in just his sixth start back from injury, keeping OC hitters off balance for six innings of shutout ball.
He ran into a bit of trouble in the seventh though as Oldham County managed one final push to make things interesting.

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/21/14 -- AssetWorks, a leader in Intelligent Workplace Management, today announced at the Association of Higher Education Facilities Officers (APPA) 2014 Annual Conference and Exposition that it is closely collaborating with ISES Corporation and Sightlines LLC to provide comprehensive capital planning services. Cooperation between these three industry pacesetters provides their mutual clients with a unique combination of facility condition assessment services, multi-year investment planning and project selection and funding services, and work planning and execution management via the AiM(TM) Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS).
ISES Corporation is a best-in-class expert in providing assessment services to institutions of higher education and public sector entities and is renowned as a supplier of highly credible data for strategic and capital planning. The collaboration between ISES and AssetWorks offers their mutual customers two important advantages. First, it eliminates silos of information that undermine good business practices. Secondly, it prevents assessment data from becoming dated. This is accomplished by housing the assessment data in the broader IWMS solution where the planning and execution of work is managed. Leveraging a native data import function, ISES assessment data is imported directly into AiM. AssetWorks and ISES have adapted their solution to align with recent industry trends, in which there has been a shift away from routine project management to a focus on analysis and needs assessment.
Sightlines, a leader in facilities measurement, benchmarking and analysis, lends its concept of Building Portfolios to the collaboration. Sightlines and AssetWorks work jointly to tie assessment data in AiM to mission and finance by grouping buildings into portfolios of assets that mirror institutional priorities. Project data is transformed from a technical assessment to a multiyear capital plan within the AiM's Capital Planning and Project Management (CPPM) offering.
"Our collective vision demonstrates in absolute terms how three companies can collaborate to provide greater value to our mutual customers," said Ken Slaughter, Senior Vice President, AssetWorks. "The work that we've done together thus far is truly trendsetting. Rarely is there one solution that captures assessment data, applies the concepts of portfolio management against those needs, and executes work against a multiyear strategic plan by leveraging technology to manage both operations and maintenance and capital project management."
About AssetWorks
AssetWorks delivers industry-leading business solutions that help asset- and infrastructure-intensive organizations control capital and operating expenditures, reduce operational complexity, and manage regulatory and policy-driven risk. Leveraging a comprehensive portfolio of software and consulting solutions, we help organizations work more efficiently by improving access to shared asset data, promoting greater transparency across the organization, improving service delivery, maximizing asset availability and uptime and reducing total cost of ownership. Using the latest cloud and mobile computing technologies, our asset management solutions and domain expertise help organizations eliminate waste, redundancy, and inefficiency. For more information, visit: www.assetworks.com.
About ISES Corporation
ISES Corporation is a facilities consulting firm that helps building portfolio managers to develop strategic plans. The company provides its clients with a wealth of detailed and accurate data about their buildings, resulting in the clients' improved ability to make better capital planning and investment decisions. Clients are typically facility managers with multiple buildings, including universities, colleges, states, municipalities, the US government and institutional investors. Its primary offering is the Facility Condition Assessment service. ISES also conducts Utilities Infrastructure Condition Assessments, Preventive Maintenance Programming, including Equipment Inventorying, and Organizational Analyses. For more information, visit www.isescorp.com.
About Sightlines LLC
Founded in 2000, Sightlines works with more than 450 colleges and universities each year. Their ROPA+(SM) (Return-on-Physical-Assets) service provides a holistic approach to defining capital needs and provides an independent view of campus performance, reliably benchmarked against peer institutions. Academic institutions use ROPA+(SM) to defend budgets, secure additional funds, evaluate new construction, rebalance budgets, assess maintenance backlogs, determine proper staffing and service levels, and successfully present budgets to boards. Sightlines was named to the 2013 Inc. 5000 list, an annual report from Inc. Magazine of the fastest growing privately owned businesses in the U.S., for the fifth consecutive year.
