Attention: The following post will appear to be very kooky to some people but I beleive in it 100%. This post is for those that beleive in the Law of Attraction, quantum physics, the power of intention, the movie "the Secret" among other beleifs.
If you haven't seen the movie "What the Bleep do we know?" Then I suggest you see it. It is a movie that takes the facts about the secret and explains it in a very entertaining way from a scientific point of view. If I understand properly it was actually made before the secret. Because of it's roots in science, it may make all of the non-believers who think the "stuff" is "kooky" and turn them into believer.

Dr. Joe Dispenza is one of the few individuals I admire the most. he has been able to put together the so called " fantasy" and science together. Many people that did not believed in The Law of Attraction, some probably still don't, the fact that we create our own reality started to have a different look after seeing it from a scientific point of view. This is shown very clear in the movie "What the Bleep Do We Know?" which features Dr. Joe Dispenza, who explained why it is that we do what we do in repetitive patterns, why it is that we obtain the same results over and over again….. neurons that fire together wire together, and not until we start breaking those patterns our life will change. Dr. Dispenza shows us how to break those patterns, or the long-term relationships our neurons had by creating new relationships in our brain……please read below as it is said in his own words.
How to Create Your Day by Joe Dispenza
I Create My Day
The most often referenced interview in the film is Dr. Joe Dispenza's comments on creating his day. In response to the numerous requests, the following is the transcript of that part of the interview.
"I wake up in the morning and I consciously create my day the way I want it to happen. Now sometimes, because my mind is examining all the things that I need to get done, it takes me a little bit to settle down and get to the point of where I'm actually intentionally creating my day. But here's the thing: When I create my day and out of nowhere little things happen that are so unexplainable, I know that they are the process or the result of my creation. And the more I do that, the more I build a neural net in my brain that I accept that that's possible. (This) gives me the power and the incentive to do it the next day.
"So if we're consciously designing our destiny, and if we're consciously from a spiritual standpoint throwing in with the idea that our thoughts can affect our reality or affect our life — because reality equals life — then I have this little pact that I have when I create my day. I say, 'I'm taking this time to create my day and I'm infecting the quantum field. Now if (it) is in fact the observer's watching me the whole time that I'm doing this and there is a spiritual aspect to myself, then show me a sign today that you paid attention to any one of these things that I created, and bring them in a way that I won't expect, so I'm as surprised at my ability to be able to experience these things. And make it so that I have no doubt that it's come from you,' and so I live my life, in a sense, all day long thinking about being a genius or thinking about being the glory and the power of God or thinking about being unconditional love.
"I'll use living as a genius, for example. And as I do that during parts of the day, I'll have thoughts that are so amazing, that cause a chill in my physical body, that have come from nowhere. But then I remember that that thought has an associated energy that's produced an effect in my physical body. Now that's a subjective experience, but the truth is is that I don't think that unless I was creating my day to have unlimited thought, that that thought would come."
(Dr. Joe Dispenza in What the BLEEP Do We Know!?TM)

First Clip of Andre 3000 as Jimi Hendrix Appears Online
Legendary OutKast member is seen as the iconic guitarist in new biopic.
The first footage of Andre 3000 playing Jimi Hendrix has surfaced online.
The OutKast singer, who is billed under his real name Andre Benjamin, is taken from the upcoming Hendrix biopic "All Is by My Side." As Classic Rock reports, the film is about the two year period in Hendrix's career that leads up to his show stopping performance at Monterey Pop festival in 1967.
"All Is by My Side" debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival last year, will premiere in the US next week at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas. The film, which was not approved by the Hendrix estate, will not feature any music from the iconic guitarist. Instead, new versions of covers played by Hendrix have been used. Director credit for the movie goes to John Ridley, who was the writer of Oscar winning movie "12 Years a Slave."
What do you think of the clip? Does Andre 3000 deliver as Hendrix? Will you be going to see the film? Let us know in the comments.

Twin girls for ex-Miss NI Judith Grey whose relative died in Poppy Day bomb
The arrival of twin baby girls for a former Miss Northern Ireland has "brought joy" to a family touched by violence.
Judith Grey and her husband, Gareth, welcomed their daughters, Julie and Jessica, into the world on November 7.
It was almost 29 years to the day her late grandfather, Gordon Wilson, forgave the IRA for killing daughter Marie (20) in the Remembrance Day bombing in Enniskillen.
A BBC interview with Mr Wilson shortly afterwards, in which he offered his forgiveness to those responsible, moved many.
Judith said the arrival of the twin girls has been a source of great happiness to her grandmother, Joan Wilson, on what is always a difficult week.
The girls' older brother, Wilson, now five, was born on November 9. "When Wilson was born, Granny Wilson said it brought joy to what is a hard weekend, and now these two come along," said Judith.
"It's strange that they're all around that weekend, but it's nice. Granny Wilson came up on Sunday and visited them and she really enjoyed it.
"They're three weeks old now and doing really well, feeding every few hours, and I've had lots of help from family.
"At night Gareth takes one on his side of the bed and I take the other. It's kind of a rotation, but - touch wood - they're getting on well."
Messages of congratulations to the happy family have been sent in from around the world, many from previous contestants in the Miss World competition.
"Miss Norway was congratulating me and Miss New Zealand, we still keep in touch through Facebook," said Judith. "Wilson wants to hold them all day. He loves coming in from school and seeing them and looking after them. It's good but busy.
"Having two makes one baby look easy. It's been a pretty quiet house before! But they're generally feeding at the same time and they're still quite sleepy."
Belfast Telegraph

It is now a big leap. It shows it is a 5 year leap. Raj who is in a bedroom different to his original one is sleeping and is having nightmare. There are different flashbacks. He is tossing and turning.
Devesh: So you knew about it and never said!
Kajal: Think about your poor sister.
Kokila: Aren't you ashamed?
Amber: It is mean but you had maybe good reason.
Shashi goes to him and slaps him hard and then drags him out the house. He is about to be chucked on the floor but then Raj wakes up. He starts panting. The camera zooms out to show that he is an old dilapidated flat. It then turns to morning. Raj is sitting in his kitchen eating what he can find. He is looking around as he is scared. Then someone is at the door knocking. Raj jumps. He goes and answers the door.
Manger: Rent? (He goes to his drawer and gives him an envelope with money.) Cheers. (The manger goes away.)
Raj then gets ready into some clothes.
It now goes to university. Raj is at first sad, he then goes into the teachers room with a smile on his face.
Raj: Hello!
Jane: Hi there, come on in! You emailed me about your problem with cartilage.
Raj: Yes, I was really stuck, could you help me?
Jane: Sure, no problems. See you have to ask your questions now.
Raj: Thanks Ma'am.
Jane: By the way, your work experience is coming.
Raj: Now I can feel the life as a doctor!
It now goes back to the house again, everything is the same but there is a happy vibe there. Everyone is sitting around the telephone.
Kajal: Once this phone rings it will be time to pick up Simran from the train station.
Amber: I know, it is exciting.
Shashi: Who would have thought it, Simran as a doctor; it is weird how things turn out.
Amber: And me nearly getting in to dentistry school.
Kokila: Really try hard; we will be so proud of you.
Amber: Thanks Ba!
Devesh: Regardless if you get in, we will always care for you.
Amber: Thanks Kaka, thanks all of you. (She is thinking all of this.) Dad, one day you will back with Pia and we will all love you in a big house. I am just waiting for that day. Also Raj, your family don't love you but I will find both of you. I hope you are all fine. (The phone starts ringing and everyone runs out the door and runs to the car, Kokila, Amber and Kajal are all left behind.) They are all excited to get Simran. She is great. She is now a doctor and is working at a centre in the city.
Kajal: She can always commute there and back from here.
Kokila: The family is all back now Simran is here.
It now goes to Pia and Sachin, they are in there pent house flat. It is very modern. Pia is much older and looks different and she is in her room studying for some exams, Sachin enter.
Pia: Hi dad.
Sachin: What are you revising, for the biology exam or maths?
Pia: Maths at the moment. I will be on biology next.
Sachin: Great I can help you if you want.
Pia: Yeah, I just need this last A-Level and then I am finished so I can relax and then go to university for business study course to be a chef and run a chain of business.
Sachin: That's great that you have plans. I wish I was like you. Do you know that when I used to not study my dad will bribe me? If I studied like you then I would have not lost him out his money.
Pia: That is funny! What is for dinner?
Sachin: We are going to the mandir to pray and then I will buy you something. A treat!
Pia: Yes, dad! Dad, do you ever think that we will go back home. We haven't even seen Mina and we have all the money back.
Sachin: I was going to decide something with you. I think we should move to Canada. It is will be great for us. The family won't ever accept us and that is a fact. We will decide soon. (He leaves.)
Pia: This is all due to that Mina, if it wasn't for her, we would be together. I am going to be the glue that holds us together. I look so much different than before; they won't recognise me now, so I will ask if I can stay with them as Amber will remember me, I will find out the deep reasons and then we can unite as one again! I need to pass my grades before this can happen. I just don't want to leave my dad alone, he has done so much for me, how can I say goodbye like Amber did and never phone back.

The relative importance of the prenatal and the postnatal transmission of passive immunity from actively immune mother rats to their young has been studied. It has been shown that the concentration of maternal antibodies in the circulating blood of the young rises rapidly from the 17th day of gestation to the 2nd day of lactation. Thereafter it remains relatively constant throughout lactation at levels approximately equal to those of the mother. It is evident that by far the greater part of the transmission of passive immunity occurs after birth, although there is transmission of a significant though small part before birth. Antibodies also occur in the amniotic and exocoelomic fluids and in the stomach contents of foetal rats.

Deans as catalysts of change is intended to ensure your organisation is positioned and recognised as being rigorous, relevant and at the forefront of what is needed to meet the challenges of the 21st century.
It is specifically open for Deans and senior leaders engaged in and committed to transformative change towards relevant high quality learning and management education that serves people, planet and prosperity.
Inspired by the 50+20 vision inclusive of the Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME), Deans as catalysts of change aims to:
· catalyse the development of globally responsible leaders;
· enable business to become the best for the world;
· and engage proactively and systemically with societal transformation.
Join this pioneering, peer-based and global collaborative laboratory (collaboratory) for Deans and play an active role in developing Global Responsibility in organisations, businesses and societies worldwide.
Learning and outcomes
As a participant-driven cohort, the group will jointly determine, based on collective interest and energy, which emergent issues and topics to emphasise during working sessions and virtual meetings - all in pursuit of fulfilling the role as change agent in a peer-based academic setting and achieving sustained change.
Skilled facilitation, led by a team of experienced senior facilitators from the GRLI network, will support the participant-directed approach built on a framework incorporating Whole Person Learning and a Theory-U process. Participants will identify and challenge their own assumptions as they move from deep reflection to insight, and immerse themselves in rapid prototyping of their own implementation process by the end of the programme.
GRLI's goal is to convene a diverse group representing a mix of geographies, specializations, and well-established institutions from the developed world as well as fast-rising and ambitious players in the new economies.
Through active and full engagement in the Deans as Catalysts of Change cohort participants will:
· Develop a deep understanding of the vision of management education for the world.
· Equip themselves with tools and methodologies to facilitate further exploration and implementation of global responsibility within their own organization.
· Engage with committed change agents in a facilitated global process of co-learning and co-creation.
· Define and initiate a transformative change outcome or program for their organization.
· Share the cohort's collective learning across leading networks and on global platforms as a bold call to action for educators and industry worldwide.

text: False Prophets As I've told you all before I am trying to study the Bible. I would consider myself no genius, but fairly intelligent. However, I am having a hard time understanding what some of it means and I want to get it right. So please forgive me if the questions I ask seem like "duh" ones. Ok. In Matthew 7:15- 20: Watch out for false profphets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit, is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. What does this mean? I have been sitting here for a long time trying to figure this out. How do we know them by the fruit they bear? What fruit is the Lord referring to? Also Matthew 7:6 Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. if you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces. Your thoughts on this also would be appreciated. Thanks:read-bible:

The policewoman was directing traffic away from the coast on the Channel Island when a giant wave washed onto the road and knocked her to the ground.
Swept several feet by the power of the wave, the WPc got to her feet and continued directing traffic.
The moment was caught on camera by a group of friends who were attempting to capture some of the big waves on a camera fixed in their car in the recent bad weather.
Uploaded to YouTube over the weekend, the clip has been viewed over 125,000 times.
At the time, the incident promoted much mirth amongst those travelling in the car, with prolonged laughter clearly audible in the footage - something the uploader apologised for on YouTube after revealing he had contacted the officer to check she was not badly injured.
"Unfortunately the laughing just came out, I'm not proud of it and have apologised to her, I wish her a speedy recovery and I'm thankful that we have dedicated emergency services staff such as herself to keep the rest of us safe."
The policewoman reportedly suffered only minor bruising.

Following a vote by the New York City Council on April 16 and a May 6 hearing held by Mayor Bill de Blasio, the Mayor yesterday signed a local law that limits the ability of employers in New York City to request credit-related information from current and potential employees. Among other things, New York City employers will no longer be able to perform credit checks as part of their employee screening process for most positions.
The law, "Prohibiting discrimination based on consumer history," was passed as an amendment to the New York City Human Rights Law ("NYCHRL") by a vote of 47-3. While private New York City employers may still collect credit-related information for certain employees and in certain circumstances (including when required by law), the collection and use of this information will be greatly restricted when the law goes into effect on September 3, 2015.
For most private employers in New York City, credit-related information may only be collected or considered for those employed, or seeking employment in, the following positions:1
- Positions that are non-clerical in nature in which the individual has regular access to trade secrets. Trade secrets are defined as information that "(a) derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; (b) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy; and (c) can reasonably said to be the end product of significant innovation." This definition of trade secrets excludes "general proprietary company information such as handbooks and policies," as well as access to or the use of "client, customer or mailing lists."
- Positions having "signatory authority over third party funds or assets valued at $10,000 or more."
- Positions that "involve a fiduciary responsibility to the employer with the authority to enter financial agreements valued at $10,000 or more on behalf of the employer."
- Positions that, as part of their regular duties, allow the employee to modify digital security systems that are designed to prevent the unauthorized use of the employer's or client's networks or databases.
Int. No. 261-A, Section 2, 24(b)(2)(E)-(G) and (d)(3). In addition to the exceptions identified above, employers may request or receive credit-related information where required by federal, state, or local law or regulations or through "a lawful subpoena, court order or law enforcement investigation." Int. No. 261-A, Section 2, 24(b)(1) and (e).
If the position in question does not fall into one of the exceptions listed above, under the new law, it will be "an unlawful discriminatory practice for an employer, labor organization, employment agency, or agent thereof to request or to use for employment purposes the consumer credit history of an applicant for employment or employee, or otherwise discriminate against an applicant or employee with regard to hiring, compensation, or the terms, conditions or privileges of employment based on the consumer credit history of the applicant or employee." Int. No. 261-A, Section 2, 24(a).
"Consumer credit history" is broadly defined to include an "individual's credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, or payment history," including information contained in a credit report or information obtained directly from an individual regarding credit accounts. Int. No. 261-A, Section 1, 29.
As an amendment to the City Human Rights Law, the enforcement provisions contained in the NYCHRL apply to this new legislation as well. Complaints may be filed with the New York City Commission on Human Rights, and actions may also be filed directly in court. Remedies may include back pay, reinstatement, compensatory and punitive damages, and attorneys' fees and costs.
The law also specifies that the City's Commission on Human Rights will collect information from public and private employers related to their collection and use of credit-related information through the identified exceptions, and that a report will be presented to the City Council regarding this use for the first two years that the law is in place.
Employers who are currently requesting and/or using consumer credit reports for their employees in New York City, including as part of a background check, should carefully evaluate the positions for which these reports are used to ensure compliance with the new law. If you determine that a credit report may still be considered for a particular position, as always, you should also ensure that you are complying with the various notice requirements in place under federal and state law regarding the use of these reports.
1. Additional exceptions apply to positions in public agencies, positions with access to information related to criminal investigations or national security, and positions that are required to be bonded by city, state or federal law. The full text of the law is available at http://legistar.council.nyc.gov/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=1709692&GUID=61CC4810-E9ED-4F16-A765-FD1D190CEE6C.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.

Ben Cosgrove, Guest Chef
Harvest 2005
1 lb fresh Ahi tuna loin
Black sesame seeds
1 jar oyster sauce
1 can wasabi
1 bottle Sriracha or other hot sauce
4 to 6oz. mixed oil
(1/2 olive oil - 1/2 corn or vegetable oil)
Cut Ahi into 1 inch x 3/4 inch strips, and dry with paper towels. Spread sesame seeds on a plate. Roll Ahi in sesame seeds until well covered (you should not be able to see the red of the Ahi). Refrigerate for at least one hour. You want Ahi to be as cold as possible. In a large saute pan, add enough mixed oil to lightly cover bottom, heat until almost burning (right before the oil starts to smoke). Place Ahi in pan and cook, turning until all sides of the Ahi turn white.
Combine in bowl equal parts of oyster sauce and water, mix well. Add wasabi and Sriracha to taste. Place Ahi on tray and serve with dipping sauce.
Serves 4 to 6 for appetizers

Discussion in 'Phoenix Suns' started by FArting, Jan 21, 2011.
Sam Cassell sighting on the Wizards coaching staff.
I pity the players; They must be getting an earful, literally.
No doubt. Great player in his day though....unfortunately for Suns fans.
He seems to be doing a nice job coaching up the Wiz backcourt too.
Vince Carter is really a black whole with the basketball tonight. He does not have any elevation when he goes to the basket. His first half performance probably hurt the Suns more than anyone. In regard to Lopez' performance... Diaw caused me less frustration except Diaw had more talent if he chose to use it. Sometimes Lopez acts like he doesn't have a clue. It leaves me puzzled he went to Stanford.
Random observations:
- Wiz big men are LONG. Arms everywhere. If they all learn to shoot better, watch out in a year or two.
- GoGo Gadget Gortat is getting it done. Been everywhere. That double-pump slam was great. Keeping the Suns in this game.
- Loved EJ giving Sam Cassell and Robert Horry the business about being unprofessional in their brief stint with the Suns back in the 90's. Speak the truth, EJ!
I read where Gentry thinks Lopez can't play off the bench and Gortat can, but you know your game plan sucks when you start the game trying to feed your center to get him going. I mean, it's not like Lopez is going to go off for 40 points. Seriously, our centers need to play within the flow of the game. Why take your worst offensive player on the floor and try to get him going offensively to start the game?
We got this.
I hope so. They may be playing a little better but they are still just 6 and 16 over their past 22 games. They are locked in a battle with the Nets for the 2nd worst team in the East and we look like we might be able to beat them (barely).
Gortat made a contested lay up!!!!
Yeah, they haven't shown anything spectacular except Nick Young in the 1st half. Suns look much better on the court at the moment. Let's hope it stays that way to the end
The Wiz are who we thought they were!
I almost think the pace is starting to wear on them. They aren't as blazing fast down the floor like they were in the first quarter.
Gortat... like a soccer announcer says goal....
Gortat with double-double already
Suns looking better! Bench better.
Frye growing. Better D. Hitting 3's on the road.
Nash is such a stud. Gets Frye going in his spot from deep. Then gets Gortat going in a little 2 man game. Then hits VC with a perfect cross hand pass in the pocket for another 3. Boom - 13 point lead.
Separate names with a comma.

POLICE who ended a brief siege in the inner Sydney suburb of Surry Hills have won praise for defusing a potentially dangerous situation peacefully.
Officers in bulletproof vests locked down part of Devonshire Street near a housing commission block about 4.25pm (AEDT) on Wednesday after reports that a man who had threatened another man with a gun was holed up inside.
A 36-year-old man was arrested without incident about 6pm.
Police Superintendent Tony Crandell told reporters at the scene that the man, who was known to police, had been taken into custody and would be conveyed to the Rocks police station to be charged.
Supt Crandell said up to 30 police were at the scene and one family had been evacuated from a nearby house.
Police from the tactical operations unit managed to gain entry to the man's premises without incident, he said.
Mr Crandell said police had defused a potentially dangerous situation.
This is a very good operation, and it was safely contained," he said.
"The safety of the community was foremost in our minds and that's been achieved today."
He described the police action as a "very thorough and quick response".
All roads in the area have been reopened to traffic.

Please remember to follow the manual of style and code of conduct at all times.
Check BNN and Bulbanews for up-to-date Pokémon news and discuss it on the forums or in the Bulbagarden Discord server.
??? (type)
- ??? redirects here. For other uses of question marks in the Pokémon games, see Question marks.
Template:ElementalTypes The ??? type (Japanese: ???タイプ ??? type), unlike the Template:Type2, is an elemental type which existed as a non-glitch type from Generation II onward. However, no Pokémon bears this type. Pokémon eggs are typed solely with this before they hatch, and by extension, bad eggs are also of the ???-type.
Weaknesses and resistances
The ??? type has neither any weaknesses nor resistances.
???-type Pokémon
No real Pokémon are ???-types; however, both eggs and bad eggs are labeled with this type until Generation IV, when type-displaying menus are absent for eggs. This still renders them typeless, and still of the ???-type, however; it simply does not say so due to the fact that the profiles for eggs are different to main Pokémon summaries.
???-type moves
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon moves
Vacuum-Cut and Wide Slash are moves that are only exclusive to Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, and its sequel.
Vacuum-Cut will hit every Pokémon in the room, but only by 16, 17 or 18 points each time. Wide Slash will hit every Pokémon 3 tiles away either forwards, backwards or diagonally.
Introduced in Generation II, Curse is a move with the ???-type.
Curse behaves differently depending on the type of the Pokémon using it; more specifically, if the Pokémon is of the Template:Type2, it will cut their HP in half and place a curse on the target Pokémon, while for any other type it will merely lower the Pokémon's Speed to raise Attack and Defense.
There is no actual purpose in Curse being a ???-type move besides its mysterious nature. If hacked to be of any other type, the move will still work as normal.
Shadow moves
Shadow moves are type-less moves, rendering their typing unknown.
In Pokémon Colosseum, Shadow Pokémon have the move Shadow Rush until they are purified. In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, more Shadow moves are introduced. Starting in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, these moves are super-effective against regular Pokémon and not very effective against other Shadow Pokémon. It should be noted that in Pokémon Colosseum, Shadow Rush, the only Shadow move, is marked as a ???-type attack. However, it is only in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness that these moves are not given a type at all.
These unknown typed moves do not run exclusively off of the user's Attack or Special Attack stat, instead depending on the move. This would later be extended to moves of the rest of the types in Generation IV.
Weather Ball type changes depending on the weather condition. If Weather Ball is used when the field is under effect of Shadow Sky, Weather Ball changes to ???-type.
Non-Shadow moves
In every other game, ???-type offensive moves, although none exist, can be hacked in. Because they're not programmed to be either Physical or Special, even with a base power of 255 (the highest that the game allows), the move will do almost no damage.
Arceus's Multitype ability allows it to change types based on which Plate it holds. Although there is no ???-type plate, the code for Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum has a sprite for ???-type Arceus. It is possible that this sprite was included to prevent the game from crashing if its base type was changed to be ???-type instead of Template:Type2.

Wow! The media has definitely taken this ball and run with it. Some have said that I effectively stepped on a land mine discussing this topic bluntly.
A simple radio interview in Las Vegas, New Mexico has generated a ton of press, e-mails, and opinion pieces. Many of them out of context. This Article (http://www.nmfbihop.com/diary/4021/tom-mullins-landminesontheborder-proposal) has some of the detail and audio of my original radio interview which covered a number of subjects including securing our borders. As I have stated, I am not advocating the use of land mines on the Mexico border, nor the Canadian border for that matter. We need to come up with non-lethal effective border security solutions. Americans expect our Federal Government to secure our border.
Ben Ray Lujan, Jr. has now jumped to accusing me of killing women and children. How is that fund raiser going for you Ben? Unbelievable that you would stoop to that level. Border security is not a laughing or joking matter. Criminals are crossing the border daily. Lujan believes in Amnesty for Illegal Aliens. He undoubtedly supports the current New Mexico policy of driver's liscenses for Illegals which will cause legal New Mexicans to use a passport when they fly commercial aviation. This policy has made New Mexico the laughing stock of the United States. How will Congress address this new FAA requirement?
I believe a Congressman's job is to hold the Federal Government accountable to the people of their district. The good citizens of the third district would like to combat the illegal drug war, crime, and violence, which is associated with illegal immigration. ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) needs the resources to effectively perform their job. Ben Ray Lujan, Jr. supports the Adminstration's policies which have included halting construction of the border fence and not allowing our border patrol agents to work within designated wilderness areas. Yes, I am a Christian. Yes, I have compassion. But I also believe our border must be adequately protected and as your next Congressman, i will address this border security, not run away it or turn a blind eye toward it as many others have.
When Rep. Lujan, Jr. mentions "comprehensive immigration reform" does he mean amnesty? I believe he does. Maybe the news media will do an audio check on his prior statements as they have done mine? This is going to be an interesting election with 139 days until November 2nd.

Skip to comments.Schwarzenegger Vetoes Drivers Licenses for Illegal Aliens (Says "premature")
Posted on 09/28/2006 7:04:11 PM PDT by calcowgirl
To the Members of the California State Senate:
I am returning Senate Bill 1162 without my signature.
This issue has been the subject of a number of prior legislative attempts. Last year I vetoed a similar measure, SB 60, because action on this issue is premature until federal regulations are promulgated to implement the REAL ID Act. We are still awaiting those regulations.
Given the potential impact of the REAL ID Act on the public safety and homeland security of Californians, members of my administration are working with the federal government to develop those regulations and secure funds necessary to implement the Act. Until the REAL ID Act is implemented and the federal government adopts comprehensive immigration reform, it is inappropriate to move forward with state law in this area.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Para los miembros del Senado Estatal:
Estoy devolviendo el proyecto de Ley SB 1162 sin mi firma.
Este tema ha sido sujeto de sinnúmero de intentos legislativos. El año pasado vete una medida similar, la SB 60, ya que actuar sobre este tema es prematuro hasta que las regulaciones federales sean promulgadas para implementar la ley REAL ID. Todavía estamos esperando esas regulaciones.
Dado el potencial del impacto de la ley REAL ID sobre la seguridad publica y la seguridad interna de los californianos, miembros de mi administración están trabajando con el Gobierno Federal para desarrollar esas regulaciones y para garantizar los fondos necesarios para implementar la Ley. Hasta que los puntos completos de las regulaciones federales sean conocidos, es inapropiado adelantarse con una Ley estatal en esta área.
This is one of the reasons I votee for Arnold. He is a Rhino but does gives us some of what we want. If Phil was governor he would have voted for it. Again the lessor of two evils.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
Just having Arnold veto Illegal Alien Driver's Licenses again and again makes the Recall worth it.
I think a RINO is about the best you can get in CA. at this point. Things may change in the future.
Nope. Pandering to business.
Had he approved the legislation, all longer distance business travel for Californians would have been by charter jet or rail.
Well, he can kiss that new stadium in Oaxaca goodbye.
CA Dems are looking ahead to 2010. Angelides is just a sacrificial lamb for Villagrosia.
All we ever get anymore, is the "lesser of 2 evils" I for one am sick of it!
In the meantime the Austrian is the legacy that Torres couldn't have because of ... guess who ... Angelides in his former party role as enforcer.
If Art survives as chairman until November 2010, two more election cycles, he will become a saint when a Mexican anchor baby is elected governor. Mahoney will see to it.
this issue is premature until federal regulations are promulgated to implement the REAL ID Act. We are still awaiting those regulations.
The Gub all along has said he wanted "background checks" done`on illegals that get DLs...
Congre$$ choked this year on its way towards enacting a comprehensive immigration reform package that would have included provisions that would have satisfied the gub.
Lucky us, not for having the Gub we have, rather that Congre$$ choked.
btw , could you provide two additional translations for DiFi and Babs, one in Mandarin and the other Latin. Thanks! :-)
Diga me No es verdad!
He didn't say that it's idiotic and just plain wrong to give drivers license to illegal aliens. He said it's premature!!!
Do you folks realize what that means? He's going to sign something in the next year or two. Mark my words.
He never has said it was wrong in any of the multiple veto messages, he's always relied on "background checks" or the Real ID Act, or the like. Had he just said no, in clear terms, we could quit wasting govenment resources and taxpayer dollars on this nonsense. But then, it just doesn't have that melodramatic Hollywood effect.
Before the Recall election, he said:
I'm a conservative because ... and when you look at the drivers' license outrage, I am a conservative because I believe in the rules of the law, not political pandering."
Well, at least he remembered why he was elected. If he hadn't VETO'd this it woud have been a legit betrayal given it was the main issue that got the former tossed. That and the economy.

Strengthening Faith Institutions Network
Creating stronger, healthier, integrated and accessible places of worship across the UK for everyone.
What is the Strengthening Faith Institutions Network?
Strengthening Faith Institutions (SFI) is a pilot programme backed by the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) and run by a consortium of faith based charities led by the Fayre Share Foundation.
Why is it worthwhile to run a Health-Check Scheme for my faith institution?
SFI will support your organisation with a bespoke health-check to maximise your objectives, and provide focused training for your leadership team, trustees, and members in core areas of safeguarding, security, governance, funding and other areas of need.
This is package worth £1,500, offered for free to faith institutions.
|"We need more programmes like this one. Much that was previously obscure has begun to make sense."
Ahmed Sarman, Trustee, Manchester Somali Islamic Cultural Trust
|About the SFI governance training:
"The best use of my 6 hours for a long time. Thank you."
Sukhbir Singh, Trustee
Funding for your Faith Institution
Did you know that your Church, Mosque, Temple or other place of worship are entitled to mainstream funding? Are you aware that you need certain governance, safeguarding and other policies in place to access mainstream funding?
If you want to start a youth, women's or educational project but don't have the funds available, we can help you apply for funding by making sure you have the right governance and foundations to apply.
As we know, there are 'certain' pressure groups who are campaigning to close down places of worship without the necessary governance. We help to prepare these places of worship to be fully prepared with their paper-work and policies in place to avoid any unforeseen issues.
How SFI Works
The Scheme has two parts:
- Bespoke health check:
Local faith based expert facilitators engage with the senior management of your church, temple, synagogue, mosque, and gurdwara to identify the key organisational strengths and areas for improvement. The facilitator will create a bespoke action plan that works for your community and resources.
- Training sessions:
Targeted training for senior management, clergy and volunteers in your local area. Topics will include: financial sustainability, good governance, fundraising, social media, safeguarding, and more.
Who delivers the SFI scheme?
SFI has created a network of trained facilitators throughout the UK with expertise in third-sector organisations and sensitivity to faith issues.
We seek to match each organisation with a local facilitator who shares the faith and ethos of the organisation.
Would you like to register your place of worship as a potential candidate for the programme? Or find out more about the process. Please contact email@example.com

El Camino Real
Santa Barbara Travel Blog› entry 4 of 11 › view all entries
Santa Barbara is well-known as a trendy coastal city and home to UC Santa Barbara. There are historic sites here, too, the most famous of which is Mission Santa Barbara. The mission church was founded in 1786 by the Franciscans who established 21 missions throughout California during the Spanish colonial era. Mission Santa Barbara is stilll an active parish church. The road linking the missions was known as El Camino Real and the coastal highway retains this popular designation today.
Driving north of Santa Barbara brought us to Buellton. Located here is Anderson's Split Pea Soup retaurant. A stop at Anderson's is a long tradition for the traveller on the coast highway.
North of Santa Barbara on 101/1 we drove through rolling open agricultural country as the land rises away form the sea. At San Luis Obispo, the highways diverge. US 101, the main highway, takes an inland course. We stayed on California 1 that hugs the coast. We passed though seaside communities like Pismo Beach and Cambria and reached San Simeon, our destination for the day. After checking in at our motel, we walked down to the nearby beach. The beaches along here are narrow and rocky with cliffs jutting out into the sea. It was overcast and threatening to rain, but we stayed long enough to put our feet in the Pacific.
We backtracked a bit down the highway to Cambria where we had dinner. Afterwards, we looked around the shops in town. New Age was all the rage here. Music. Crystals. Wind chimes. Suncatchers. Etc. (New Age was still "new" then. It had not yet reached the East Coast.) My wife opined that the locale reminded her of Maine, to which comparison the locals seemed to take some umbrage.

Mad hatter . . . pie in the sky . . . egg on your face. We use these phrases every day, yet how many of us know what they really mean or where they came from?
From bringing home the bacon to leaving no stone unturned, the English language is peppered with hundreds of common idioms borrowed from ancient traditions and civilizations throughout the world. In Red Herrings and White Elephants, Albert Jack has uncovered the amazing and sometimes downright bizarre stories behind many of our most familiar and eccentric modes of expression:
If you happen to be a bootlegger, your profession recalls the Wild West outlaws who sold illegal alcohol by concealing slender bottles of whiskey in their boots. If you're on cloud nine, you owe a nod to the American Weather Bureau's classification of clouds, the ninth topping out all others at a mountainous 40,000 feet. If you opt for the hair of the dog the morning after, you're following the advice of medieval English doctors, who recommended rubbing the hair of a dog into the wound left by the animal's bite.

For a blog, I can see how I did it when I am blogging around, it is being indexed in many blog search engines when I add them in my submission. And because of the blog behavior, we tend to link one another because of some interesting topic.
But for a website, no matter how I see it, I just couldn't think of a way to do link building for it, except to build a link page, adding myself to those industrial directories, or to buy links...
Link Page: Seems like a link scheme which might give you a Google Ban!
Directories: Google declared that they wouldn't index directories since it doesn't give them unique contents.
Buy Links: It's yet another link scheme again!
Somehow, it seems like every way is an illegal way of link building...
Anybody out there who can share some ideas about legal link building?
It's all about the after effects of what you have written... Thanks for the reply :)
I have found that article submission is helpful. The more the better. That is, hundreds of good articles will be more productive than just a few. I understand that submitting using the paid version of Article Marketer or Isnare is recommended, though I have always just manually submitted my articles.
Their are various way to get Quality links.
Article Submission, Blog Posting and Rss Feeds give us Good links and those link provider sites will help to get targeted traffic from links in the author's byline.
Then another way is Social Book marking.
Social book marking is an activity performed over a computer network that allows users to save and categorize a personal collection of bookmarks and share them with others. Users may also take bookmarks saved by others and add them to their own collection, as well as to subscribe to the lists of others. Best example sites are [del.icio.us...] and [diigo.com...]
Then one of the latest and quality link procedures is one-page content advertising. It may be paid listing or swap link with theme sites.
1) blog posting to get targeted traffic,
2) social bookmarking whereby we share with everybody and they will start to spread around to everybody.
3) paid listing or link swapping might possibly go against Google link scheme... It depends on how we do it... But I am not sure exactly how..
See [google.com...]
Though it doesn't really build any links, it does spread word to everybody. Hence a possibility of people writing about it and link it..
thanks! Anymore? I am trying to explore as many ways as possible so as to help myself and to help all of you too..

Chances are as this week winds down, your endocrinologist is out of the office today and tomorrow. He or she may very well be at the big annual clinical endo conference happening in Tennessee this Wednesday through Sunday, bringing in thousands of endos from across the U.S.
Yawn, right?
But wait -- the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE) that represents 7,000+ diabetes docs in this country is actually making a big announcement on Friday: the creation of a new sub-group, the American College of Endocrinology Foundation (ACEF), to focus on fundraising and advocacy and working more cooperatively with other stakeholders in the diabetes world, including our own ePatient community.
The issues they'll tackle are the same that we hear about often among our own advocates: legislative priorities like coverage of CGM (continuous glucose monitors) under Medicare, strengthening the diabetes funding and programming throughout the country, creating a National Diabetes Clinical Care Commission, and working to change how endos are paid to review our diabetes data in their offices or remotely -- which may sound like just AACE hoping to line their own pockets, but is in fact key for us patients too, as time spent going over our data needs to be a recognized part of the work doctors do for us.
This new collaborative advocacy arm is a big deal, because let's face it, just a few years back, a formal physician's org like AACE (founded 24 years ago as "an avenue for the study of the scientific, social, political, and economic aspects of endocrinology") would have gasped at the thought of partnering with medically untrained patients to lobby on important healthcare policy topics. And now they're embracing patient leaders. Wow!
Why ACEF?
The new ACEF foundation being unveiled this Friday at the AACE annual meeting will fall under the umbrella of that larger org, and fits alongside the American College of Endocrinology (ACE) that focuses on scientific and academic aspects. (Whoa, those endos do love acronyms.)
We learned about this new foundation while catching up with longtime Michigan endo Dr. George Grunberger, who practices at the Grunberger Diabetes Institute and is largely seen as the "face of AACE" for many of us.
Grunberger tells us it's all about working with the patient community in making diabetes care better across the board. The whole concept actually stems from last fall's Consensus Conference, held by the AACE in Washington D.C. to bring experts into one place to talk about key topics like glucose meter accuracy. The patient advocates in attendance -- including our D-Advocate friends Kelly Close, Bennet Dunlap and Manny Hernandez -- pushed for more patient voice being brought into these conversations (a full report on that is being published in the May edition of the AACE journal, Endocrine Practice).
As a result, Grunberger says this new foundation was born.
That's exciting, as it sounds like we're going to have a better view and more input into what our national group of endos is really focusing on. It was interesting to hear Grunberger say recently that AACE has met specifically with Medicare folk in the past years about CGM coverage, but has basically been told nothing will be done because their hands are tied by Congress. This foundation will allow for more outreach and on-the-ground advocacy, similar to what other big diabetes orgs like ADA and JDRF do with their advocacy efforts on the Hill.
The foundation's initial board of regents will of course include AACE member endos, but also important voices from outside of AACE, including some well-known patient advocates.
Since much of this hasn't been formally announced yet, details are scarce at the moment about the exact structure and priorities of this new foundation. We look forward to hearing more soon, maybe even by watching the annual meeting's activity on Twitter at the #AACE15 hashtag.
The Coding Mess
One of the big issues AACE wants to tackle through this foundation is how billing codes are used for endos to get reimbursed for what they do in their offices and beyond, Grunberger says. For example, they get reimbursed certain amounts from our insurance companies depending on the task -- ranging from general office visits with patients, to writing prescriptions, offering nutrition training or other D-education, and use of electronic health records.
There are thousands of codes, but a consistent theme is that physicians feel they're definitely not being adequately compensated for the work they and their staffs do for patients. This is actually one of the issues that led to the creation of AACE in the first place, making sure there were adequate billing codes for endos to get paid for the work they do.
Today there are thousands of these reimbursement codes, as well as treatment and diagnosis codes, which is inefficient and confusing -- and streamlinig that is a hot topic right now, as physicians nationwide are required to start using a new international coding system beginning in October. See this one-pager about how the entire U.S. health care system will transition to using the ICD-10-CM code set effective October 1, 2015.
We patients rarely have much of a window into this world of billing codes -- except for a few numbers and letters that appear on our own statements.
Even with all of the thousands of codes that currently exist, there is no standard to get endos reimbursed for reviewing our complex CGM data. This is an issue that AACE has been involved with for years, even crafting a position paper in 2010 on CGM billing codes that goes into the scary reality of how outdated these codes really are for our modern D-tech.
Existing CGM codes were crafted in 2002 and 2006, back in the days when CGM was just beginning to be introduced to the market, so those are woefully outdated for all the options we have today as far as CGM devices and data-sharing tools.
Industry (that develops CGM tech) has no say on the issue, so that means physician groups and doctors in the trenches are the ones who need to advocate on their own and their patients' behalf.
So with this new ACEF, Grunberger sees a way to bypass the reluctant federal healthcare agency and instead focus on advocating directly to legislators with our D-Community's help.
Without codes, some physicians practices have resorted to charging patients a fee for CGM or device data download, and some endos have policies of not reviewing CGM data outside the office simply to make sure it's a billable "face-to-face" task they can get reimbursed for. But as Grunberger tells us, it's something many endos just have to "suck up" for the betterment of their patients; even though it eats into their time and ability to run an efficient business.
"Right now, I do that for free," he says. "I could write a prescription for a medication, and get reimbursed the same amount as if I'm spending an hour reviewing CGM graphs and numbers."
Adding to the mess, Grunberger says seasoned endocrinologists with deep experience don't get reimbursed any more than entry-level doctors, unlike in other professions where higher-level execs get paid more than their newer colleagues. In an ideal system, he feels that experience should be reflected in physicians' reimbursements.
Advocating for Change
Getting these changes is no quick thing, as it involves going through the American Medical Association (AMA), which has traditionally governed billing codes and requires a whole complex process to apply for new ones. And now with the new ICD-10 rules being mandated by Oct. 1, the Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS) will oversee the massive complex coding system.
The only way doctors can get the attention of decision-makers who can help bypass these hurdles is to raise their voices collectively, and clearly it's key that they hear from us patients on how very important this issue is. Think about it: How many of us have heard our doctors make a comment about "too much data" from a CGM cutting into their already-limited time? And how many times has our D-Community advocated for wider access and use of diabetes devices like CGM and insulin pumps?
They aren't reimbursed as they should be and that has to change. If we want change, we patients also need to raise our voices. We should all be calling or emailing our own endo's offices to let them know we care!
Who knows how effective this new ACEF will be? Still, it's a great move in the right direction -- lobbying for things that matter and including the actual patient community in the efforts.

Nashville's newest police precinct, which will be built across from the Music City Center, is being fast-tracked against the objection of more than 90 downtown property owners, and some council members are asking questions, too.
The precinct is also being built as a change-order to an existing contract, rather than through the bidding process.
Nearby property owners question why the city has chosen a narrow strip of land - only 35 feet wide - to build a three-story police precinct with no parking.
"This is just an inappropriate place for a police precinct," said Shelby Smith, who owns property near the proposed location.
The land is across Korean Veterans Boulevard from the Music City Center and neighbors a new Nashville Electric Service substation.
"It's a challenging site at best," said Jack Fleischer, who owns Hermitage Lighting Gallery. "I just think it's the wrong thing to do for the city."
It's a highly unusual arrangement that even members of the Metro Council didn't know about.
"I was totally surprised," said Councilwoman Karen Bennett.
Bennett chairs the public safety committee and said she didn't know - until Channel 4 News told her - the city was about to break ground on the new precinct being built by the convention center's contractor.
"I guess it's sort of a shotgun precinct?" Bennett said.
Metro Finance Director Rich Riebeling defends the property as the perfect choice since the land is already owned by the city. The land was acquired for the NES substation that powers the Music City Center, but the substation didn't need the entire parcel of land.
Riebeling said it's in a good location for downtown Nashville.
"It's sort of right in the middle of where all the tourists are going to be," Riebeling said.
The project is being financed with $4 million worth of bonds and was approved by the Metro Council in January as part of the city's capital spending budget.
However, the project was not put out for bids, nor were there any feasibility projects to determine if another site was more appropriate.
The city hired Bell-Clark to build the police precinct under a change-order - that is, an add-on to its contract for the convention center.
"For cost purposes, and just timing purposes, it's going to be done as part of the Bell-Clark contract for the convention center project," Riebeling said.
A number of downtown property owners have filled a petition asking the city to reconsider the site. They want the city to consider buying a nearby building that's currently for sale.
That site is much larger, with lots of parking available and it is listed for half the price of building a new, three-story structure.
"It's a fairly modern building, fully air-conditioned," Smith said.
It may be too late for the city to reconsider, though. Riebeling said the city could break ground any day.
The surrounding property owners think fast-tracking the project isn't the best thing for taxpayers, and they're disappointed that the mayor hasn't answered their emails and letters.
"To dismiss a commercial district that's 90-plus acres, in downtown, really tarnishes the way people would think about him," Smith said.
Downtown businessman Ken Jakes said, "this has got wrong written all over it."
"Do you think anybody in Davidson County will believe the taxpayers got the best return on their dollar, spending $4 million without a bid?" Jakes said.
Larry Atema will oversee the project. He oversaw the Music City Center construction, but he didn't want to talk Thursday about the big change-order that will extend his job for several more months.

Thank you for replying to my previous emails and clarifying your position.
I am glad that you recognise that the airport is simply wrong to deny global warming. I would also trust that you recognise by making light of such an important issue that their behaviour was scurrilous and reprehensible.
I am however still concerned that you are unquestioningly accepting the safety argument from the airport, especially when their credibility is now so low after their misconceptions document.
In the recent article in the Gloucester Echo at the start of the new Manx services, it was absolutely clear that new services were the objective of the works. The article specifically quotes Mr Norman as saying, "I think there are all sorts of routes you could have. I can see potential in double daily routes to Scottish destinations, like Edinburgh, mainland Europe and Dublin and Belfast." Following statements like these, to continue to believing the proposed work is purely safety related in absolute nonsense.
It is clear the runway length will be too small for Boeing and Airbus jets even after the extension; however it will comfortably accommodate the new generation of short take off turbo props. These planes have ranges of up to 800 miles and thus are comfortably within the range of many northern European cities.
The runaway will also be capable of supporting many "business jets" which will be used for recreational flights to places such as Cannes, Nice and Monte Carlo.
To believe that Staverton airport will somehow not expand its service offering to cover continental flights after the runway extension is clearly nonsense.
It is further clear that there is a demand for an airport in this area, which again was recognised in the Gloucester Echo with the quote from Manx's Mr Filleul who said, "The service will compete with Bristol and Birmingham airports and attract its customer base from within a 60 to 90-minute drive radius of Staverton." Again, this demonstrates that it is absolutely naïve to think that the airport does not propose to tap into current demand for flying.
Finally, amongst the airport proposals is the idea of traffic lighting Bramfurlong Lane, with the idea of stopping traffic near the end of the runway from interfering with the approach path for the new aircraft landing under Instrument Landing Systems. It is hard to believe that anyone can seriously argue that this will improve safety. It will take only one reasonably high sided vehicle to jump the lights to cause a fatal disaster.
On the issue of housing being built on the Airport site, this is a different debate altogether and it needs to be considered on its own merits. It is unacceptable to determine the outcome of this equally important debate by expanding an airport.
As regards your initial point on global warming, you clearly believe in it. It is now vitally important that you follow through to the next question and ask how severe this will become. As I have pointed out many times now, the science is brutally stark, and we are currently facing the very real possibility of a runaway global warming. The situation is so dire that we must not allow any developments that cause any unnecessary CO2 emissions.
I trust that you will finally recognise that the proposed works are about service increases and airport expansion and nothing to do with safety. I would further urge you to stand by the policies of your party by unequivocally opposing this airport expansion.
Regards,Kevin Lister
John Webster
Following your request a couple of weeks ago I discussed this with the Leader, Steve Jordon and we have agreed the following.
I would have replied sooner, but have been away.
'We disagree with the Airport Board that Global Warming is not happening. They are simply wrong.
We will oppose any further growth at the airport.
However, the current plans are necessary in order to conform with safety and operational requirements.
Our policy is to keep Staverton as it is. We see no prospects for dramatic expansion in the future, and certainly not for increasing charter flights beyond the United Kingdom.'
As you know, there are elements that wish to sell Staverton off and cover the area with houses which we are opposed to because of the urban sprawl that will result.You are right in not wanting to see Staverton grow into something we do not support.
Best wishes,
Cllr John Webster
Deputy Leader, Lib Dem Group.

Please help select the correct window balance. I have attach the following pictures to show the ends of the 2740 style window balance.
Tom from SWISCO responded:
November 26, 2014
Good morning, and thanks for posting. Looks like your top attachment is winged, while your bottom is not. Since this doesn't match any of our standard Series, your balance will have to be specially made.
Before I can work on that, though, I'll need to figure out what that bottom shoe is. Check out our 15-001 and 15-002 and tell me which is a closer match.
A home owner from Mandeville, LA says:
November 26, 2014
The end mostly resembles 15-002
Tom from SWISCO responded:
