Public demands what feds suggest: Traceability via food labels
While the Food Safety Modernization Act doesn't require transparency, it encourages it, but equally important for food manufacturers, consumers are increasingly demanding traceability. "Companies are under pressure from consumers, as trust is the lowest it's ever been," said John Keogh, president and principal advisor, Shantalla Inc., Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. "Trust can be lost… Continue Reading
Consumer survey shows changing definition of food safety
A recent survey of 5,000 consumers nationwide that asked about food buying decisions showed changing attitudes about food safety. People still want toxin-free and pathogen-free food, but they also want more transparency from food producers and retailers about those and other food safety issues, according to the 2015 Food Value Equation Survey by Deloitte Consulting… Continue Reading
Ag secretary can't find common ground for activists, industry on GE/GMO labels
Activists and industry reps sat down twice with Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to see if they could find a compromise about labeling food processed with genetic engineering. No compromise could be found, and it's unlikely there will be a third meeting. That the negotiations broke down hardly came as a surprise. The two sides… Continue Reading

The category has been controversial because it allows companies to… Continue Reading

"The State's motion makes the case that Vermont's labeling law withstands all five challenges to… Continue Reading

It is now official: we have our nominees for what could easily be called one of the most controversial presidential elections in our history; and the "Race for the White House," as CNN so eloquently puts it, has begun.
What the candidates do between now and November will be crucial in determining who better earns the trust of the majority of the country; that is, if we pay close enough attention.
Staff Reports
ABINGDON — The defense in Richard Denny Nofsinger Jr.'s federal child pornography case is considering seeking an evaluation for mental competence to stand trial, according to a motion filed in U.S. District Court in Abingdon.
Nofsinger faces state charges of the capital murder of Anastasia Alley, 21 months old, and the first-degree murder of her mother, Alyssa Kenny, 28, on March 10 in Galax. They were found dead in their home.
The registration numbers are in for next week's 81st Old Fiddlers Convention, showing slightly lower numbers overall but nothing shocking, according to members of the Galax Moose Lodge #2212, which has sponsored the event since the beginning.
Contestants had until July 15 to register, except for Youth Night, in which contestants register at the event.
"The registration was good as far as I'm concerned," said Tom Jones of the Moose. "Most held their own and some increased."

ABINGDON — The federal trial and and a pretrial conference for Richard Denny Nofsinger Jr. were granted a continuance by Judge Pamela Sargent in federal court on Thursday morning.

How smoking can wreak havoc with the female reproductive health
Everyone has heard that smoking is bad for your health. How many women know that smoking cannot only be dangerous to the health in general, but it can also be dangerous to your reproductive health? A number of illnesses and diseases can arise as a result of women smoking. The real danger that most people are aware of is the big "C" or cancer. Statistics show that women in general are more prone to cancer than are men, but many women continue to smoke regardless of the statistical evidences.
Oral Contraceptives and Cigarette smoke don't mix well
One danger that many are not aware of is the use of oral contraceptives and smoking. Smokers who use oral contraceptives or hormone based contraceptives have a higher likelihood of suffering strokes, heart attacks, and blood clots that can result in death. This reaction is so dangerous that women smokers over the age of 35 are told they should not take oral contraceptives.
Smoking can harm the unborn baby
Everyone has heard that smoking while pregnant is not a good thing. The main points in this area is in low birth weight, premature delivery, still birth, placenta previa, and miscarriage. There are some who speculate that of the number of miscarriages each year those due to women smokers outnumber those who do not at almost a 2 to 1 ratio. The effects of the chemicals and drugs in cigarettes on the children directly after birth should give pause. The babies will be racked with the same symptoms as adults undergoing withdrawal from the nicotine addiction. There is a statistical connection to children's sickness and smoking mothers (while pregnant). There are more ear infections, more colds, more flu like symptoms, and more recurring illnesses in general from children whose mothers smoked while pregnant than with children whose mothers were non-smokers during pregnancy.
Infertility in women – A major consequence of smoking
There is a direct connection to smoking and infertility in women. In fact, the recorded rate of infertility among smokers is more than 3 times as high as in non-smokers. Recent studies show a decrease rate in ovulation in smokers causing a higher rate of infertility in these women. Even implantation of the sperm to the egg in the act of fertilization is impaired in women who smoke. If you plan to have children in the future, you should seriously think about quitting smoking before trying to get pregnant. If you do not quit prior to attempting pregnancy, realize that you are increasing the chances of inability to conceive. As stated above, if you do become pregnant the chances of a spontaneous abortion or even a life threatening condition are highly increased.
Other reproduction related problems caused by nicotine
There are a number of toxins in cigarettes aside from the nicotine. These toxins can cause many problems with your reproductive health. They can impair your ability to become pregnant, or they can impair you ability to maintain a healthy pregnancy to full term. There is some evidence that suggests that many birth defects can be laid at the door of a smoking pregnant mother. If you are planning on quitting prior to becoming pregnant, then you should give your body a chance to cleanse these toxics before you begin your attempt. To be on the safe side, you should probably quit smoking for at least a year prior to attempting pregnancy to ensure your body is free of these toxins.
Early menopause can be a direct outcome of smokers who started early
Many women begin smoking while in their teenage years. This has been linked to early menopause. Smoking alone has shown to cause menopause two to three years earlier than in non-smoking counterparts. Those who begin smoking as teens increase their risk of early menopause by 300%. Smoking significantly decreases the estrogen levels in the body of smokers, thus promoting early menopause, and irregular periods. These reduced levels can be part of the cause of infertility, early menopause, missing periods, vaginal infections and discharges and other menstrual problems.
Many women dream of being a mother, but they do not realize that their reproductive health can be compromised by smoking. Many women might not be swayed by the risk of cancer, but some are more deeply affected by knowing that they might being snuffing out their dream of bearing children the next time they light up.

Gaffigan's stand-up act well-received by Milwaukee crowd
Jim Gaffigan didn't have the fortune of being born here, but the native Hoosier did the next best thing and married someone who was.
Milwaukee is sort of a second home for the New York-based stand-up comic, not simply because of his family connections or because he's played annual year-end shows at the Pabst Theater since 2007. His style of stand-up - clean, soft-spoken, often deadpan, obsessive about food - seems tailor-made for Midwestern sensibilities. »Read Full Article(2)

ZEDS - Play Your Dreams
By Channel 4
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Record your sleep, play your dreams!
Zeds is a game that allows you to play a world created by your sleep patterns. Each level is based on your own personal sleep rhythm!
Zeds, the game, records your sleep pattern then generates tracks your little Zed characters play in.
How many Zeds can you get to the finish? Complete levels and your Zeds will gain experience! Gather points to rank up your Zeds to unlock special items and customise them!
Name your Zeds, love your Zeds, but don't stay up all night playing - get some Zeds!
Unlimited levels - Ever-changing levels based on sleep data that can be saved, replayed and shared with friends.
Zeds - Your own little characters (you can even name them!) who crave sleep but never seem to get any because they're running through yours.
Customise - Unlock and create new looks for your Zeds team.
Challenge - Time your swipes perfectly or risk losing your Zeds to the monsters in your dreams.
Score - Gain personal bests on every track by getting your team of Zeds through all the score gates, across the double tracks and safely back to bed.
Learn - Find out about your sleep habits, what they mean, and how you can get better sleep!
Terms & Conditions:
Zeds is a game designed to raise awareness of sleeping patterns in an entertaining way. As part of the game you will record your sleep. The app does this by using microphone input and recording device movement. This information is only stored in the app on your device and is not shared with anyone else and is recorded in a non-human readable format and can only be viewed by you in a graph format and as modifications to your game experience. The app does not contain any tracking or analytics and all of your interactions with the game are only recorded within the app itself on your device for the purposes of facilitating your gameplay. The only shareable element of the game is your sleep graph: if your iOS device has an email account associated with it, then similar to when you email a photo from your device, you will be able to email your sleep graph together with the duration and start time of the sleep it represents to your friends either by typing in their email address or selecting an email address from your email contacts list. Please note that Channel 4's Terms of Use and Privacy Policy also apply to your use of Zeds in addition to Apple's terms and conditions, so please make sure your read these and are happy to accept these before you install Zeds on your device.
Combining factual information about sleep with exciting game play, this app and its sleep recorder feature provide a fun way to create and play unique levels based on your actual sleeping pattern. Whilst the recorder genuinely detects activity as you sleep, the results shown in the app should not be viewed as a scientifically sound analysis of sleep.

Customer Reviews
Great game and a great sleep tracker
After playing only a few minutes I got to grips with the swiping gestures that were needed to progress through the level. I'm sure this is one of those games that help develop the reflexive nature of the player's thumbs. High performance thumbing pays dividends in today's world.
I like the feature that allows the recording of your sleep, it has a nice interface and doesn't block out other apps in the background that one might need to successfully "hit the hay" e.g. a soothing Sigur Rós playlist can be played without interference.
tl;dr: Very fun game, thumbs are becoming more reflexive.
Pretty cool
Like an endless runner game but the levels are created from your sleeps - pretty cool, can share the sleeps with friends too and have them play your sleeps basically! 8/10
Crazy but Cool
Nice little game. Took a while to load but it was worth it, mental monsters and crazy levels. Eyeball monster is my favourite :)

In the past two games, Auburn victories over Grambling and Furman, Price took six shots and made five in each contest while finishing a perfect 4-4 on three-pointers in both contests. For his performance the six-foot-five guard from Southwest DeKalb High in Decatur, Ga., was named SEC Freshman of the Week.
"It is a blessing to be able to come out and make shots and help my teammates win a game," says Price, who is averaging 7.2 points and 1.1 rebounds.
Tipoff for Tuesday's game vs. Tennessee Tech is 7 p.m. CST at the Auburn Arena and there is no TV coverage of the contest. Auburn leads the series 3-1 vs. Tennessee Tech, which comes into the contest with a 6-4 record following a 69-58 victory on Saturday vs. Wisconsin-Milwaukee. That same night the Tigers defeated Furman 64-50.
Auburn has now won back-to-back games for the first time this season and will look to even its record at the expense of the Golden Eagles from the Ohio Valley Conference.
"We are picking up our intensity level and we are getting better on both the offensive and defensive ends," Price says of his team. "In some of the games we haven't executed like we should have at the end of those games and it cost us a chance to win.
"In practice we are focusing on the details and playing hard so we can win those close games," says the freshman, who adds, "It is the little things that count."
Barbee has challenged Price to improve his defensive play and rebounding and told the six-foot-five guard if he does that his playing time will increase.
"He is like a typical freshman," the coach says. "He is a guy who we talk about that he has always judged his value as a player or the impact that he can have on the game by the number of points that he scored. We try to break that habit quickly, and he is struggling with it in some ways. You are not always going to be an efficient offensive player every night out."
Asked about his defensive play, Price does notes his coach has a point. "I am still trying to get better on the defensive end," he admits. "My shot has gotten better from practicing and working out, but I am still trying to get better on the defensive end.
"In high school you might not be playing the best guys every night, but here in college you have to be able to guard your opponent in every game if you want to be successful," the freshman adds.
In addition to getting tips from the coaching staff, senior guard Frankie Sullivan has been giving Price advice, something the freshman notes that he appreciates. "I have a lot of respect for what Frankie says because he is a very experienced player and a great leader," Price says.
Sullivan leads the Tigers in scoring at 17.7 points per game while Chris Denson is averaging 15.0 points and center Rob Chubb is next with 9.6 points per game.
Tennessee Tech, which features a three-guard lineup with no starter taller than six-foot-seven, is led in scoring by 6-5 senior guard Jud Dillard, who is averaging 18.7 points and 7.5 rebounds.
"Tennessee Tech is a good team," Barbee says. "They played well at some tough places to play. They are very similar to the Furman team we played the other night in that they have guys who can shoot it from multiple positions so we are going to have to guard the three-point line very, very well.
"Unlike Furman, they have a guy in Dillard who is averaging 19 points a game and is capable of going off for 30," Barbee adds. "They have an individual talent who can take over a game so we are going to have to pay attention to him and make the game hard on him."
News and Notes: Auburn lost its last game vs. Tennessee Tech by a score of 72-70 in December of 1989...Sullivan is second in the SEC in scoring, one-tenth of a point behind Marshall Henderson of Ole Miss who is averaging 17.8 per contest...Forward Allen Payne has started eight of Auburn's nine games this year and is averaging 7.2 points and 4.4 rebounds. After Monday's practice the junior lefthander told Inside the Auburn Tigers that he is seeing progress from the team as a whole. "The last two games we have gotten a lot better executing offensively," he said. "Defensively, we still have a long way to go as far as team defensive and our rotations. That happens when you have a team with a lot of freshmen. We are still developing. We still have a long way to go, but I like where we are headed."

Cowboy down
ARLINGTON, Texas Drew Brees threw for 446 yards and three touchdowns and led a drive to Garrett Hartley's winning 20-yard field goal in overtime, as the New Orleans Saints edged the Dallas Cowboys, 34-31, on Sunday.
The Cowboys (8-7) still control their postseason fate because the New York Giants lost at Baltimore later Sunday. Dallas will make the playoffs as the NFC East champion if it defeats Washington next weekend.
The Saints (7-8) had to overcome the Cowboys' two-touchdown rally in the final 3:35.
Tony Romo had 416 yards passing and four touchdowns, including a 19-yarder to Miles Austin with 15 seconds left in regulation.
After the Saints forced a punt on the first possession of overtime, Brees completed a pass to Marques Colston, who took a couple of steps before Morris Claiborne stripped the ball, sending it rolling about 20 yards to the Dallas 2, where Jimmy Graham recovered.
"We're never going to let anyone tell us we're not playing for something," Brees said.

Franz Werfel: A Life in Prague, Vienna, and Hollywood by Peter Stephan Jungk (translated from the German by Anselm Hollo; 133,000 words and 40 illustrations)
Czech-born playwright, novelist and poet Franz Werfel (1890-1945) became internationally famous(and a special target of the Nazis) after he wrote The Forty Days of Musa Dagh, the first novel about the Armenian Genocide. He later published the Catholic classic The Song of Bernadette, written after a deeply religious experience in Lourdes, a stop on his escape route to the United States through occupied France.
Born into a wealthy family of Prague Jews, Werfel was torn between his Jewish identity and his attraction to Catholicism, between high art and popular success. He was friends with Franz Kafka and Max Brod in his youth and later and part of a larger Central European intellectual circle that included Sigmund Freud and Martin Buber. He married Alma Schindler-Mahler-Gropius (widow of composer Gustav Mahler and ex-wife of Bauhaus architect Walter Gropius). The couple fled Nazi-occupied Vienna in 1938 and became part of the German exile community of California. They lived in Beverly Hills where Werfel died, a successful Hollywood screenwriter.
"This lovely book is more than a biography — a meditation on art, history and human life." — John Simon, New York Times Book Review
"An exemplary biography." Edward Timms, The Times Literary Supplement
"Jungk's description of how he researched his subject is highly suspenseful and reads like a detective story." — Der Spiegel
"This exemplary biography recalls Werfel's career and its vanished settings as part of the cultural history of the West. Mr. Jungk also provides a searing picture of Werfel's wife, the famous Alma Mahler Gropius Werfel..." — The New Yorker
"This biography, ostensibly the story of a life, is really a broad panorama of culture and history... It is Jungk's genius to seduce us into following him into Werfel's world, and to keep us there, completely enthralled." — Die Welt

Skip to comments.Top GOP donors tell party to legalize illegal immigrants
Posted on 07/30/2013 11:11:46 AM PDT by markomalley
Nearly a hundred top Republican officials sent a letter to the House GOP on Tuesday urging lawmakers to pass a bill that legalizes illegal immigrants, arguing that the current system is already allowing them to stay and so it makes sense to register them and bring them into the system.
The donors, led by former Bush administration Cabinet officials Carlos Gutierrez and Spencer Abraham, also said that immigrants are potential Republican voters who can be won over if the party can be seen as welcoming to immigrants.
Doing nothing is de facto amnesty. We need to take control of whom we let in our country and we need to make sure everybody plays by the same rules, the donors said in their letter.
They aimed their pitch at House Republicans, who are trying to figure out a way forward and find themselves trapped between angry rank-and-file voters who say legalizing illegal immigrants amounts to amnesty, and party elites and donors who say the GOP cannot survive nationally without embracing legalization as part of a strategy to win over Hispanic voters.

America's Party
'We're partisans only for principle.'
The by then babbling person said "it's only one issue". He didn't even know that the "tea party" started with brave US citizens checking the border with binoculors themselves when the feds kept letting them down!
"tea party" has been so corrupted that they don't even know anymore what they're supposed to stand for.
"We need to take control of whom we let in our country and we need to make sure everybody plays by the same rules,"
You dont want to do that now.
F*cking idiots.
The inertia of the RINO Wing mindset of the Republican Party has kept the Welfare Democrats in power after the National defeats of Dole, McCain and Romney.
One would think that those 3 painful losses would be called an out by the Republican Party.
What has happened is that the Republican faithful just chalk them up to 3 foul balls.
What is lacking is the desire to judge each action or inaction on the merit of whether or not it is good for the Country.
As a result, our political system has been in the Roman end times where the decadent rulers just try to appease the masses by giving them "stuff."
Our stuff is the Welfare Borrow and Spend Shadow Federal Government that consumes 40 % of the Total Federal Government spending.
We beat our chests and complain about our high taxes that go to pay for this Welfare Shadow Government.
The truth is that not one penny of our taxes goes to pay for Welfare, as ALL of Welfare is financed by borrowing from our Grandchildrens descendants.
Thus, we have two Federal Governments: one that is financed mainly by income from those 54 % who still pay Personal Federal Income Taxes, and the other financed by debt which must be repaid with interest by our Grandchildren's descendants.
None of the above is recognized as being valid by those that we elect to govern us.
If the economic reality cannot be clearly communicated to our sorry Federal Politicians, then the Financial Markets will do so at the worst possible time.
My second point is that of leadership. This is a generational topic, and thus difficult to analyze.
History will show that the Post-WW2 generations in America produced poorly motivated patriotic political leaders, with few exceptions.
History will also show that we, as a Nation, lack the will to punish our politicians who violate the ethics, morality, financial obligations or the written Laws of our Nation.
For example, who was the last US President who went to jail for violating his oath of Office for violating the US Constitution? BTW, he/she would be the next one and also be the first.
The third point is the desire to fail. RINOs are masters at it, and for that reason have kept (for FIVE YEARS) as their Speaker of the US House none other than John Cave-In Boehner.
With Sobber John at the helm, there will be no Special Investigation of the Benghazi Massacre, IRS harassment of Welfare Democrat opponents, legal pursuit of Contempt of the House AG Holder, or year to year reduction in Total Federal Spending, etc.
B. Hussein Obamas legacy will remain intact and in effect as long as Cave-In Boehner is kept as Speaker by the sorry House RINOs.
RINOs have their defenses up to label as Wacko, dangerous, or radical any challenge to their dedicated goal of failing to act in the best interests of the Country, and to always Cave-In to the Welfare Democrats.
Blackmail to them is a badge of honor, as they laugh their way to a gold-plated retirement paid for by the debt that they have created.
BTW, think about the above comments the next time that someone tries to con you into believing that we Americans still have a Federal Government that we can be proud of.
Now we know that illegal alien invasion was a cornerstone of GWBs Compassionate Conservatism.
Our tolerance for debt-based welfare to immigrants is equal to our tolerance for the debt that we are willing to pass onto our children and grandchildren.
Reduce our tolerance for debt-based Federal Programs, and our tolerance for immigration will also be reduced.
Our Southern Border is under the control of Mexican Drug Gangs. An illegal attempt by AG Holder to challenge their grip failed with Fast and Furious.
Obama has allowed INS officials to increase the number of got-aways and to decrease the number of illegal alien invaders actually caught.
Gullible News outlets, such as The Wall Street Journal routinely run articles quoting Obamanation statistics that numbers of captured illegal alien invaders are down, and thus there is no such thing as the surge of illegal alien invaders from Mexico and other Southern Hemisphere Socialist Countries.
Most News outlets refuse to come to our Southern Border to document their obviously false assertions.
Most State Politicians cower when our sorry NINE SUPREMES dictate that the State has no authority to protect itself from illegal alien invaders.
As long as THE NINE SUPREMES have 4 Socialist Judges, there will always be a high risk that some gullible Judge from the Majority will cross over to the dark side and continue the destruction of our US Constitution as the signature accomplishment of the US Welfare State. Traitor John Roberts support of Obamacare is the most horrific example.
Thus, it is incumbent upon those of us who still value the US Constitution to oppose the dark side, what we now call Obamanation.
The purpose of passing a Federal reform immigration bill this year is to allow illegal alien invaders from Mexico, and other Central and South American Socialist Countries, to vote for Socialist-Democrats and appeasing RINOs in the 2014 and 2016 USA National Elections for more debt-generating welfare to future illegal alien invaders to become future Socialist-Democrat voters.
These future Socialist-Democrat voters should be called McCain-Rubio Democrats, as no other Senators have done more to encourage gullible RINOs to appease and otherwise cave-in to debt-dependent Democrats than these two sorry RINO Senators.
Stand your ground, FReepers! Raise the Gadsden Battle Flag!
It is us against the gullible supporters of Obamanation!
For example:
While Rubio and his Eight Senate Gangsters put out political smoke and mirrors to get a bill passed this year, nothing they have said will change the basic problem of aliens illegally invading the USA.
The Basic Problem: Illegal aliens invade the USA for Welfare and Wages.
Solutions that address the Basic Problem:
1.) End the Anchor Baby Law.
2.) End the Hospital Emergency Room No Payment Law (EMTALA).
3.) End ANY other Welfare to Aliens.
4.) Fine US employers $1,000 per day per employee who is an alien.
5.) Spend NO money on securing the border. It is a bottomless money pit.
6.) Spend money on Chainlink/ Concertina wire desert prisons for the EXISTING Federal Law for a mandatory 6 month imprisonment for repeat offenders who have invaded our Country more than once.
7.) Transfer Border Invasion Enforcement to the US National Guard in each State, and thus under the control of the Governor of each State. The less Federal involvement, the better.
8.) Repeal all State and Federal Laws that prohibit voter officials and Police from requesting proof of US Citizenship for any reason what so ever.
9.) Be as hostile to all illegal alien invaders as we should be to all Federal politicians and Federal Judges who vote for or support another Ted Kennedy-style amnesty bill with no significant Federal enforcement.
Contact your local TEA Party, and plan to kick the sorry RINOs and even sorrier Democrats out of Congress in 2014!
It is all about the money FReepers, YOUR tax money.
They're making their choice...time for a conservative party, as the GOP ain't it.
We need to know which exact companies they represent and boycott the hell out of them.
Please ping me if someone puts up the list.
You rich donors are traitors. You should be ashamed and slink on off to whatever haven youve built because your dead to me.
I second that!
When they call here, I tell them to put me on their "don't call" list. The poor phone bank caller has probably not been given a vehicle by her employer for conveying your feedback.
I'm done with the GOP. Let the party die. Fight locally.
I don't think I'll even bother to vote in the future. If living in the most conservative county in TN and the most conservative district represented by Marsha Blackburn (who sold out to the GOPe and Boehner/Cantor) gets me treated like this, why bother?
When states lost their rights, the people lost them too.
How can they (members of both parties) sell cheap labor and, at the same time, want to raise the minimum wage? Republicans always cave to the Dems on it.
Wake up America! You can't have both cheap, illegal labor and keep raising the minimum wage and put unskilled (public educated kids) out of work anywhere.
What a scam. Belize? Belirus? Costa Rica? Panama? John Galt's place? I'm looking!!
If I were looking for new family members to adopt, I dont think those who broke into my house would be at the top of the list.
Post of the day — maybe even the whole month.
Thanks for the list. I never heard of 99% of the companies that appear there. But Overstock? I love Overstock. Oh, well, nice knowing you, Overstock....
The list is in post 40.
Get that list of donors and hand it over to ICE.
I would consider anyone who got amnesty to be not a citizen or American. I would ask questions of anyone who I thought got amnesty and not do business with them or socialize with them. Make them outcasts.
Get rid of the GOP.
I would bet dollars to donuts that is really a front group for the GOPe soliciting funds in the name of the Tea Party...
I have never once gotten a solicitation call from a Tea party organization...
Is the US "rule of law" or rule of lawbreaker?
Have the illegal aliens register for a work visa, with no pathway to citizenship, no illegal voting, and no access to entitlements or government benefits. We've had lots of people come here to work who didn't intend to screw up our politics.
Immigration & Tax Law Definitions
How to Determine Residency for Tax Purposes
The information in this section is provided as a general guide on residence status for U.S. tax purposes. Please note that there are significant differences between the definitions of residence status for immigration law purposes and for tax law purposes.
Immigration Law
A non-resident alien for immigration purposes is a person who is not a citizen or lawful permanent resident of the U.S. and who has been admitted to the U.S. for a temporary stay that will end when the purpose of that stay has been met. Individuals in non-immigrant visa status have visas which begin with letters: B, F, J, TN, H, L, O, etc.
A resident alien for immigration purposes is the same as an immigrant, a lawful permanent resident (a "green card" holder) who is not a U.S. citizen but has been authorized to live and work in the U.S. indefinitely.
Tax Law
A non-resident alien for tax purposes is a non-U.S. citizen or permanent resident who, during his or her stay in the U.S., either pays U.S. tax only on income from sources inside the U.S., or is exempted from paying U.S. income tax because of a treaty between the U.S. and the government of his/her country of residence. With a few exceptions most non-resident aliens are not eligible to take tax exemptions for dependents. A non-resident alien for tax purposes must file an income tax return on IRS FORM 1040NR or 1040NR EZ, U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return.
A resident alien for tax purposes must pay tax to the U.S. government on income from all sources worldwide and may, in certain limited circumstances, enjoy benefits of tax treaty exemptions. Individuals who are resident aliens for tax purposes can claim exemptions for dependents. A resident alien for tax purposes files a return on IRS FORM 1040, 1040A, OR 1040EZ.
Categories established for immigration purposes do not necessarily coincide with those set up for tax purposes. Under certain circumstances, a non-resident alien for immigration purposes may be classified as a resident for tax purposes. Thus, students and scholars who are not citizens of the United States must take care to determine whether they are resident or non-resident aliens for tax purposes. Only then will they know how their income will be taxed and which income tax return form to file. For current information on tax laws regarding resident and non-resident aliens, consult IRS publications 513, 515, 519 and 901.
A resident for tax purposes is a person who is a U.S. citizen or a foreign national who meets either the "green card" or "substantial presence" test as described in IRS Publication 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens.
In general:
A non-resident for tax purposes is a person who is not a U.S. citizen and who does not meet either the "green card" or the "substantial presence" test as described in IRS Publication 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens.
In general:
Lawful permanent residents of the U.S. are considered to be residents for tax purposes. A person has this status if he/she has been granted resident status by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and/or has been issued an alien registration card, also known as a "green card".
A foreign national in non-immigrant visa status may be considered a resident for tax purposes as soon as he/she meets the "substantial presence" test for a calendar year (January 1 to December 31). To meet this test, the person must be physically present in the U.S. on at least:
Days That Are Not Counted:
A foreign national will not meet the "substantial presence" test if:
IRS Publication 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens, provides details on what is required to establish a closer connection to a foreign country, including such things as the location of a person's permanent home, family, personal belongings, etc.
Ohio PIng
They are faced with a choice between conservatives and illegals. They're making their choice...time for a conservative party, as the GOP ain't it.
Cui bono?
it makes sense to register them and bring them into the system
No, it doesn't! Not if they'll vote against your beliefs for the next 30-40 years.
These are the "leaders" you get when you elect Bushes.
This party is really screwed.
Chamber of Commerce
Rich Republicans, who like cheap labor
Home builders
Democrats take over political offices permanently.
Dan Quayle and Karl Rove are on the list.
"The big donors dont control a lot of votes."
However, legislators, members of Congress, county commissioners, etc. tend to have better hearing when the person speaking to them is speaking in $$$ and not as to what the best policy actually is.
Where can we get a list of these donors? They could be made to regret this.
Lets send them packing!
Republicans have stepped on my last nerve!
Are these the
"parity donors" who give to both sides.
this is a bs story.
I'd like to see that list........
Time for the Freedom Party...inside the GOP...we pick a candidate to run against the RINO..we always split the vote..
Just think of everything you buy everyday and it and its finished product, i.e, lettuce, tomatoes, fast-food hamburgers, chicken, all that. Landscaping and remodeling companies. Target.
I also noticed alot of Utah groups including Romney connections....
Romney would have knifed us in the Back......
No more Mormons for me,....They are Rinos.
Getting rich on the backs of illegals.
A person has to believe a 'new world order' suits the Bush crowd very much. USA oil is not part of this/that.
Pennsylvania's own Bob Asher and Tom Ridge are on the list I see......
See post #40 with all the names like "Karl Rove" and many, many more......
Overstock AND Melaleuca. Nice knowing 'em. Final straw.
I guess the RNC no longer needs donations from their FORMER base. They can manage to survive with $$ from the Amnesty lovers/Traitors...like Karl Rove, Dan Quayle, Carlos Gutierrez, et al.
Look at the names of traitorous RINOS, on that list, including business folks, (of course).
Standing out for all to see: Karl Rove.
Do nothing until Republicans control the Congress. And I mean conservatives Republicans.
"The donors, led by former Bush administration Cabinet officials Carlos Gutierrez and Spencer Abraham, also said that immigrants are potential Republican voters who can be won over if the party can be seen as welcoming to immigrants."
Bullshit. They will never vote in large numbers for Repubs. Maybe these idiots can tell us how the level of Hispanic support for George H.W. Bush rocketed "up" to 31% in 1988 (Reagan got 37% in '84), just two years after the passage of the 1986 amnesty.
Hispanics generally like big-government programs, such as Obamacare. No amount if destructive pandering will win them over.
"Coming Soon to An Election Near You: Sarah Palins Right Wing 'Freedom Party'"
That can't come soon enough. Though I think migrating to an already-existing organization like the Constitution Party would be more effective. The infrastructure already is in place.
The GOP is dead anyways. There's precious few leaders with cojones and the ones who do would fit in perfectly with a Freedom Party.
The reason the defacto amnesty argument can be made is because the federal government from top to bottom has been refusing to do its job to protect our borders.
In a way, it's like someone not paying their mortgage or rent for several months, then telling the bank or the landlord, "Under the present system, we already have a mortgage/rent free arrangement."
Ever since the Country Club Rockefeller Republicans shoved Poppy onto Renauldus Magnus' ticket in 1980.
The GOP may have to get smaller before it ever gets bigger.

I have been beading and designing for over 21 years and teaching beading for about 20 years. I especially love Japanese seed beads in size 11 and size 15. Not a delica fan but they have their place in the bead world and I recently have been working and designing with them. I especially love teaching other people about beading.
I love the feel and the colors of beads. They sparkle and entrance you. They are very addicting.
Stitch I need to learn more about is Ndebele. I will when I have a project that "needs" it. I can do it but don't feel proficient with it yet, also more about sculptural peyote.
I have a program where IF you inspire me (suggest) a pattern(that I don't already have) and that I can make and put for sale, you get it FREE and then I make money from them selling to other people.
Aside from beads, I also crochet and embroider.
I teach locally and that brings me the most joy! Find me surrounded by beads and beaders and you will see a very happy me!

Brick Stitch was the first beading stitch I learned. My goal was the triangle and diamond brick stitch earrings. Once I learned the basics, I stretched out to more complicated patterns and shaped brick stitch.
This 35 page document builds your first bugle bead foundation triangle top earring and then shows you some simple patterns you can make with that knowledge, including a santa and a christmas tree earring. It discusses the different shapes of brick stitch charts and which way each should be started. Teaches you the ladder and the zig zag start. On to some fringe choices. For the extreme brick challenged, I have a detailed tutorial for an earring. It's a small pattern, using only 3 colors. You can use delicas or size 11 seed beads. This tutorial will take you step by step per bead for your starter and first brick beaded rows. Then it numbers each bead for the rows after that. This is a very detailed brick earring tutorial - note that it's 9 pages alone. Once you learn this you will be ready to make any of the earrings in my 4 collections of smaller earrings. I give you my earring collections with 30 easy beginner charts to play with your new found knowledge.
This is for FLAT brick stitch and will not cover tubular or flat round brick stitch.
35 pages to print
Save paper and ink - Read your pattern on your favorite tablet or e-reader. I keep all my tutorials on my iPad so I can have them with me all the time. I often beaded from my laptop on the table next to where I bead before I had the iPad.
All my tutorials and patterns are designed for you to use to create beadwork. I give my permission for you to make and sell things made from my patterns and tutorials. I will never charge more for a tutorial giving permission to sell things made from my stuff. I think it's such a rip off to do that. If you wish to teach my patterns or projects, please contact me and we will work out something.
This is a pattern for electronic delivery only. This is for your personal use. You may make items and sell them but please do not share or sell my tutorial.

Get to know the more authentic side of Barcelona, Spain, by spending a night out in the relatively undiscovered Gràcia neighborhood, just a quick metro-ride away from the city center. Because the nightlife in Gràcia is too much fun to miss out on!
Typically known by tourists for its famous Gaudí-designed Park Güell, Gràcia was once a village of its very own. Then, toward the end of the 19th century, it joined the rest of the city when the nearby Eixample district was constructed.
Planning a visit? Take a Tapas Evening Walking Tour of Barcelona, or discover Spanish Wine Tasting in Barcelona!
Now it's popular among a bohemian crowd, offering a unique taste of authentic Barcelona, minus the madness that you might find in the city center. Packed with bars, it's a hot spot among locals for its lively nightlife, and is a lesser-known destination among travelers.
As eccentric as its inhabitants – from young artists to older folks – you'll find an eclectic mix of boutiques, bars and restaurants, ranging from trendy to traditional, and local to international. To experience the area's famous nightlife, head to one of its most famous streets, Carrer Verdi. There, you'll find some of Gràcia's most popular evening stops, like the dive bar Canigó and the French-style Le Baignoire.
But perhaps even more popular is Plaça del Sol, which is lined by still more bars (such as Sol Soler and the jazzy Woody Bar), restaurants, and, during summertime, also outdoor terraces ideal for sitting at while you map out the evening's plans.
Then, if you're in town during the month of August, nightlife fully hits the streets during the Fiesta de Gràcia. The celebration takes place over the course of five days, during which the neighborhood is decorated (there's even a contest for best decorated street!), and, at night, becomes filled with drinking and live music.
Gràcia is located at the far end of Passeig de Gràcia, and is reachable by metro stops Fontana and Lesseps.

Analysis from our award-winning international editor on the conflicts and political movements changing our world.
I'm just back from Paris – exhausted and not a little upset by what I saw and heard.
One of the few good things to come out of these bleak few days is the sudden interest in atrocities committed in the Middle East and Africa. Some have criticised us – the media – for unequal coverage of two terrorist bombings, one in Beirut last Thursday and the other in Paris on Friday.
I'm hoping they're not the kind of person who jumps on a hashtag bandwagon and then goes back to watching videos of skateboarding dogs, but will start a movement demanding more in-depth international news.
I wasn't in Beirut during last week's bombing, but I was for one in November 2013 in which 23 people were killed – here's my report, in case you missed it at the time.
I see that 80 people recommended my blog and video story while 29 retweeted it. Compare that to the response my colleague, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, got when he challenged the movie director, Quentin Tarantino, on the use of violence in his films: 3.52 million views on Youtube and rising.
It's not that we don't cover bomb attacks in Beirut and elsewhere, but sometimes the viewer shows less interest. Many are more interested in show business, celebrity and news closer to home.
I have spent my whole career reporting atrocities in Africa, the Middle East and Asia. That's what I do. Some people watch and care. But many people, if I'm honest, switch off.
At Channel 4 News we continue to report the war in Syria (I was just there – did you watch my reports?), the resulting refugee crisis (ditto) and events like the Al Shabaab attack in Garissa, in northern Kenya in April.
But sometimes I feel we're howling in the dark because so few of you respond. That attack in Kenya, the most viewed story on the BBC website on Sunday, garnered considerably more interest last weekend than it did at the time.
I don't think that the lives lost in Paris are more valuable than those lost in Beirut. I do think that the atrocities have different meanings, because it is relatively easy for Islamic State to bomb Lebanon whereas a huge attack in a European capital shows them to be a far more dangerous organisation than previously recognised.
So, yes, Paris was a bigger story in news terms, apart from the higher death toll. And, yes, the viewing figures went up, because this was a story people could relate to – more Britons visit Paris than Beirut.
There are also practical issues – South Beirut, where last Thursday's bombing occurred, is controlled by Hizbollah, who rarely let journalists film and never freely. There's no way the hundreds of journalists who descended on Paris would have been permitted to flood a Hizbollah area for days on end. But that's just a logistical issue, not your problem.
If you don't watch the extensive foreign reporting we provide, it must be partly our fault. We have to look for new ways to tell the story – did you see our recent interactive online package that asked viewers to make the choices refugees have to make?
Several of my colleagues – Marie Colvin of the Sunday Times, and the US reporter James Foley who was murdered by IS – lost their lives doing this work. If they had survived, they would have been in Paris too reporting this awful mass crime in a European capital, in which, incidentally, many non-white people were killed.
But they're not because they died reporting in very dangerous circumstances stories that I fear those tweeting, #Beirut2Paris, didn't bother to read or watch.
Britain is going all out to get Chinese investment and to increase British exports, but the Chinese are pragmatic too. They'll invest where they will get a good return and import the best
"If you have a young man of army age in your bus or someone they think is a spy, there's nothing you can do. They take them off the bus, beat them and send them back to
People sometimes say that foreign journalists make too much of the wanton demolition in historical sites such as Palmyra and Nineveh. People's lives matter more, they say.
In President Assad's heartland the Russian decision to start air strikes on Syrian rebel positions is being hailed by ordinary people, who hope they mark the beginning of the end of a long
The online abuse I've received while covering the refugee and migration crisis is more than any other story I've reported.
There were scuffles and screams – in the chaos a distraught Syrian man pushed his wife and baby onto the tracks as some kind of desperate protest.
After I reported on scenes of desperation at the Greece/Macedonia border, there was nearly as much outrage about the use of language as the plight of the people.
The assumption in China these days is that officials lie and cover up whenever there's an environmental catastrophe.
The death sentences passed down on eight Gaddafi era officials, including the dictator's son Saif al Islam, are unlikely to cause much outrage in Libya. In fact, they may be a cause for

Myself and my wife have just returned from a great five days in Barcelona.After reviewing many apartment rentals we decided on this apartment.We were delighted with the apartment.It is furnished to a very high standard.We rented the one bed which is an internal apartment so there is not much views out the windows but this is not important as the building is an original building in a very old (but best) part of the city.There is a nice rooftop terrace where you can have a relaxing drink after a long day out.The people in the card shop next door will look after you,they are very helpful.We traveled all over Barcelona and can honestly say the Latin Quarter is the best area.There are many bars and restaurants and shops on your doorstop.Our favorite restaurant was Milk,lovely food especially their burgers.We took the red hop on hop off bus tour for two days from Plaza Catalonia.The ticket is 27 euro one day or 39 euro two days.Sounds a bit expensive but worth it as there is so many things to see and some are outside the centre.We always rent apartments when we do city breaks and can honestly say you will not be disappointed with this apartment or with Barcelona.
We had a fantastic stay with our 2 kids (7&5). Great location with supermarkets, bakery and restaurants on the doorstep. So easy. We'd definitely go back and
Recommend to family and friends.
We stayed in this wonderful apartment for four nights after a 10 day Med Cruise. Great location in the old section. We did not use the kitchen because there were to many tapas and restaurants to mention in the area. Great little bakery just out side the door. with coffee and wonderful French bread to go for breakfast. Large bathroom and very clean throughout. Comfortable beds. We would certainly stay there again on our next visit to Barcelona. Terrific location for cruisers. Kenneth, Mandeville, La.
My husband and I just spent 3 nights in the apt and I agree that location was excellent! Apt was clean, spacious, quiet and Jordi was extremely accommodating when we had to postpone for a few days. The one weird factor was the lack of windows facing anywhere other than a wall, but perhaps this is because of the location in a very old area. I would stay here again, the area was charming.
We recently spent 4 days at this apartment(#1). The previous reviews were accurate what you see on the website is exactly what you get. Jordi, the property manager was fabulous to deal with. He greeted us when we arrived and arranged a taxi for our departure. The apartment was clean and the location was great. We had a bakery outside the front door, the Rambla was a 10 minute walk. Most everything was in walking distance. Checkout the restaurant Sensi about 20 meters away for great food.
I would definitely stay again and highly recommend the apartment.
Bruno and Maria
Nous avons séjourné 1 semaine à Barcelone. L'appartement (celui avec la galerie) était parfait: propre, bien équipé, bien localisé , bien éclairé. Le propriétaire nous a accueilli au moment convenu et était très charmant. Nous recommandons cet appartement sans aucun doute!

Molecular Imaging entered into a licensing agreement with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to access a number of luciferase-enabled cancer cell lines developed at Dana-Farber. The company says that these rights expand its ability to apply bioluminescent imaging technology to an array of cancer disease models, including expanded capability in various leukemias, multiple myeloma, triple-negative breast cancer, glioma, and melanoma.
"This licensing relationship gives Molecular Imaging access to over 100 additional luc-enabled cell lines, providing the ability to use imaging in a much broader array of cancer disease models, with greater confidence," remarks W. R. Leopold, Ph.D., vp, R&D, at Molecular Imaging.
Molecular Imaging will collaborate with Andrew Kung, M.D., Ph.D., and Scott Armstrong, M.D., Ph.D., to further develop and make available these and other cell lines to improve the quantification and predictive power of bioluminescent imaging in cancer. Dr. Kung is director of the Lurie Family Imaging Center at Dana-Farber and an associate professor of pediatrics at Dana-Farber, Children's Hospital Boston, and the Harvard Medical School. Dr. Armstrong is an associate professor of pediatrics at Dana-Farber, Children's Hospital Boston, and Harvard Medical School as well as co-director of both the Cancer Program/Harvard Stem Cell Institute and Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center's Leukemia program.
Dr. Kung, Dr. Armstrong, and Dana-Farber have reportedly been working to find the right collaboration to assure the industry has access to these cell lines. "A lot of our effort has gone into developing cell lines that will materially improve the effectiveness of research and development in a wide array of cancers," says Dr. Kung. "We believe Molecular Imaging is an excellent partner to accomplish this goal. Their dedication to preclinical in vivo imaging and their expertise in this area is a perfect complement to the kinds of work being done here to enhance the application of imaging to critical problems in cancer drug discovery."
Molecular Imaging expects to nearly triple its validated luc-reporter cell line library by the end of the first quarter in 2012. This expansion complements the incorporation of fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) into the company's imaging modalities; the firm will have a number of FMT imaging-validated disease models available by early 2012.
Molecular Imaging also offers MRI, micro-CT, micro-PET, bioluminescence, and 2-D fluorescence to provide the benefits of quantitative anatomical and functional imaging to nearly 100 customers. These platforms provide information at anatomical, functional, and molecular levels. The company also has a team of pharmacology experts for optimal integration between disease pharmacology and image-based biomarkers and end points.
