What Impact Could Sequestration Have on Sandy Recovery?
Should the White House and Congress fail to come to terms on budget cuts, sequestration would trim significant dollars from disaster recovery.

How many times has the the country bailed out the midwest in the wake of floods and tornadoes not to mention the flood of money going to millionaire farmers and billion dollar corporate farms getting crop price supports. Now these tight little Tea Party Conservtives want to leave the East Coast of the United States hanging after the worst storm in it's History....Are they Patriots or the pawns of International Corporations.

@bg, you have a narrow view of all this. This is why we have an issue because someone like you believes that this is all due to one Party or the other. It is that kind of thinking and divisiveness that we ARE in this mess. the Dems, the Reps and the President are ALL to blame. If your mindset is that your left leaning way to do things is the ONLY way to do things, then we as a country are DOOMED because the answer lays in dialogue and compromise. I'll put it to you in your personal life....do you have a conversation and compromise with your spouse/significant other when you disagree, or do you tell them that your way is the best and only way and draw a line in the sand? Your answer to that will tell me where you are at. There is NO DIFFERENCE between the jokers in Washington and one's personal life when it comes to conflict resolution...NONE. so if your answer is you talk and compromise, then that should be your post, not blaming one side.

@jenine, I am not a supporter of the Tea Party, nor do I support extreme left wing factions. I do, however, find it incumbent upon me to point out that the "sequestration" originated as an Obama policy. I do not wish to convince you of anything, or dispel your theory, but you might want to take a look at this:
VALVO: Sequestration: Obama trapped by his own tactic ...
5:09 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
proud- I would hardly use an article written by the right wing Washington Times as truth to who bought about Sequestration. Remember that the question back then:was to default or not too default? All(both parties and the administration supported it. . .now it's spin time.
5:56 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
@Spooner, my point was that @jenine was just a tad over the top in her post. For the sake of fairness, attached you will find a link from the more left wing Washington Post authored by Bob Woodward, regarding the sequestration. You may draw your own conclusions as I have:
6:31 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
Since in this country legislation is voted upon by our elected officials it might be appropriate to note that 59% of the votes authorizing sequestration came from Republicans.
10:29 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
proud- that was kind of Obama's "trojan horse" which the Republicans bit on, while he got them to extend the default date.The only thing being was...he won the election. So politically at the time it worked for him, and I guess the Republicans thought it would work for them?
10:39 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
@Spooner, actually it worked for no one. The "cuts" are not in effect--yet-- and, any solution remains at an impasse. Business as usual in Wasington, that being goiing nowhere --FAST!

The Koch brothers? What about George Soros? He collapsed two European economies and his eyes are now set on the U.S. through the 'progressive' Democratic party that he supports. As for the tea party, hear any activities by
them lately? They were just concerned citizens speaking out. Charges of racism came from the press and were never proven. I was a Dem in my youth. No more. The party has changed. Proof of this is the anti-American sentiment proliferating in hollywood, in the president's mentor & former pastor, rev. wright and the korean youngster who wanted American soldiers all killed but was still invited by this administration to the white house. It's comfortable to believe that sequestration is all congress's fault but where's the leadership from our president?

The fact Jack is that the R's did move a proposal and could not get it past the D's...and they don't want to sit down...and this guy who occupies the White House goes around spreading fear, when he can do something about it.

Come on people, the sequestration involves JUST 2.4% of the budget (none actually exists), it is not the end of the world. What you are hearing are the chicken littles complaining because they have to reallocate priorities and the political idiots trying to make hay with a manufactured crisis. The sun will come up on Saturday as usual. At 16.5 TRILLION dollars of debt, it is time for the US to grow up and face the fact that we can't do everything at the same time......it's time for tough love before our grandchildren have to pay our bills.
2:05 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
Paul...Exactly! It's hard to believe that folks actually believe cutting 85 billion of a nearly 3 Trillion budget would have ANY affect at all. It's not the tea party that is attempting to bully folks by threatening to cut essentials instead of merely trimming the gov waste. And by the way, the budget is OVER last years. It's a portion of the INCREASE that is being cut. 2.4%...but only 1.2% of it will even occur in the first year.
It's like having a salary of 100K and your boss says, hey...things are tight and instead of a 10% raise your salary will only be raised to 107K instead of 110K.
And you saying to your boss...
"What? I will have to stop feeding my kids then!"
What the sane folks are trying to say...is like the boss saying...hey, I know you eat out twice a week...now you might only be able to eat out once a week. No reason to threaten to stop feeding the kids just because I'm going to pay you only 7K MORE this year than I paid you last year rather than the 10K MORE that you want.
And since we are ALL supposed to share the sacrifice, perhaps OUR royal family could start by not costing us more than the British Royal Family.
Obama family 'costs taxpayers $1.4BILLION per year' (that's 20 times more expensive than British Royal Family)
Does anyone here REALLY think there is NOT 2% WASTE in the government?
Richard Jacoby
2:23 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
exactly, Paul It's a shame how many people see something on the mainstream news and just accept it as fact. A reduction in an increase is not a reduction at all.
These cuts dont go deep enough but our chicken little President is trying to scare everyone into thinking the sky will fall. In this country today, people are just about stupid enough to believe it
1:26 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
"government spending needs to be reduced "period" they all agreed on it ... so now they are all afraid to pick which items will be cut... so across the board cutting is going to happen, probably only for a short period, until the real fight over the budget comes. these politicians all have been kicking the can down the road for a long, long time..... time for all to go... sorry for u sandy victims that got caught in this mess
2:38 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
@ mike, I wholeheartedly agree with you that government spending needs to be reduced. A good starting point would be by reducing the government. Just peel off a few layers and scrap programs that fail..
6:42 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
You are correct that agreement has been reached that spending needs to be reduced, what hasn't been agreed on is a simple matter of budgeting that recognizes that cutting spending is only one side of getting closer to balance. The other essential is to increase income and one side refuses to consider this, even by simply reducing huge loopholes in our tax codes.
1:55 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
GB - Your registration is irrelevant. You are a hard righty - plain and simple.
Paul - Long term debt should be addressed agressively when the economy is robust. Cutting spending while the economy is still wobbly weakens it (mainly by increasing unemployment). Public/private money, and a ton of it, should be invested in physical infrastructure. That will give employment a huge boost. People will spend, creating demand - further expanding employment, corps will take their money off the sidelines and into the action, and tax revenues will go up. Then we can address long term debt.
Rs and Ds know this but Rs are completely averse to a full recovery because it will hurt the party's political prospects (full recovery under a D) and Ds do not push it because the Rs have managed to convince too many voters that austerity is the way to go (because it is intuitively appealing).

3:55 pm on Thursday, February 28, 2013
Mr.Thang, You have been drinking too much KoolAid, the economy will not get to be robust until the public and investors get the impression that we've finally grown up and can handle finances. Infrastructural investment is a red herring, the government is incapable of recognizing the places for future investment and so will attempt to recreate what worked in the past. We are beyond depending on past successes, we were successful because we were the only game in town after WWII. That is no longer the situation, the world caught us and passed us in many areas, we need to plow new ground and the government is incapable of this foresight, only people with their money on the line can make those difficult choices. If you don't believe this, explain Solyndra and the other failed government "investments".

Rick why is it that people who do not agree with you are idiots? If you want to be taken seriously learn the difference between the words their and there. GB, I doubt from your rhetoric that you are liberal about anything. Maybe you're pro-choice? By your rhetoric, you may be the bully.
Neither side is really serious about cutting spending. As an example, the money in the emergency funding for Storm Sandy had pork (what else would you call it) for Alaskan fisheries. It was because to vote for the bill, a Republican wanted that. All members of the Senate and House are looking out for their own districts not the whole country. The whole country doesn't elect them.

Darren, please, there is no such thing as a civil debate when it comes to politics in this country. For a white house that promised to bring us all togeather, it has done nothing but divide us even more. I find it hard to fathom that we were more divided as a country in the years leading up to the civil war. The more diveristy we have as a nation the more divided we seem to become. This country has no sense of itself anymore and we believe in nothing but our own selfish gratifications. At the end of the day, cuts in government spending will come. Its just a matter of whether we have them voluntarily or forcibly with the collapse of the dollar. This out of control spending has been tried before, it always fails. If we allow it to get to the point of failure, the pain will be much worse for everyone.

bg robbins, You probably haven't thought about the Iraq spending very much other than parroting the party line. Most of that spending, as you call it, was spent in the US buying the instruments and tools of war, we didn't buy them in Iraq nor any other country. That money supported a lot of US industry and when that spending rolled to a halt they only thing that kept those workers going was Afghanistan. Most of our "defense" budget is spent in the US........when those workers are laid off they go on unemployment and welfare. Look at the space industry as an example.

Five Thousand Americans died to create that Govenment in Iraq and it is no Different than the one in Egypt, both are based the Koran.

I could never articulate such a profound statement as Samstie's copy and paste. Simple accounting principles state you only spend relative to what take in -except in government and the never ending tax purse. Also agree with Paul Michealis and one of the few positives of government spending "That money supported a lot of US industry" Iraq. Problem with this country started years ago with the personal credit card and continues and escalates today with the governments tax and spend mentality. Our gov. has turned into a services / entitlement only, with out producing a real product and return on investment. Gov. policy that has not, did not will not work. Capitalism deficient leading to more debt and ending prosperity and the need for government reliance And "Masterful blends of anger", YES! "ignorance", NOT THAT I KNOW OF! "resentment",YES! "misappreshension" MISAPPREHENSION IS THE CORRECT SPELLING "of relevant facts." OBJECTIVE, REFLECTIVE, AND SUBJECTIVE. Thanks, a retired business man.

The recovering economy along with jobs is the short term problem. The deficit is a long term problem. Dealing with the short term issue indirectly helps the long term issue. Make deficit reduction the priority and you exacerbate the short term problem which indirectly hurts the long term issue. Basic Keynesian economic theory. Been in practice by Ds and Rs since 1930. Supported by Nobel prize winning economists like Joe Stiglitz and Paul Krugman. National economies are not like family economies. One individuals spending is anothers income. If everyone stops spending, only deficit spending on government's part can get the economy moving again.

As bg robbins stated earlier our past govt. policies of capitalism worked and made this a great nation. The US always prospered the most during a time of war - not that is good reason. So why not now? Of course these are not true wars like WW1 and WW2 So that was jobs and production of past policy. " Gov't policy put a man on the moon, developed the jet engine , built the interstate hwy system, did the basic research for most of the drugs major corporations " as bg robbins states. Since then corporate greed and influence and intervention of policy and government has allowed us to share our wealth and dilute it to become part of the world economy. And the "the absolute facts"? You believe the truth actually exists? it is nothing more than a philosophy/ ideology based on opinion just like yours, mine and all presented here. Why would I move from my position - will you? the words "misapprehension, subjective, and objective" support this. Apology to Samtie if he did write in fact write that. So Tiredoldprof, if you do not wish to engage, why did you?
1:44 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
So, if I read you correctly @ Mr. ?, a "true" war would be an economic engine, as opposed to not so true wars.

When RESPONSIBLE people get into debt, they spend less and add income by working more. A responsible government will spend less and add income but half the legislature refuses to add income, even if only by closing loopholes that no longer accomplish their intended purposes.

ralebird: To carry your comment further, if a drug addict needs to be cured of their drug dependency, you don't administer more drugs........when a spending addict (our government) continually overspends (more years than can be counted) you don't give them another checkbook. When they have re-proven their competence in managing finances you then supply the checkbook. COMPREHEND?
3:12 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
So EVERYBODY needs to be cut off. That includes all the entities that are still reaping rewards from the outdated tax loopholes but half our government is continuing to act as their ENABLERS and won't even begin to talk about ending the financing of their fixes.

Proud,"true" wars were better economic engines in that they were major wars that created employment - part of the productive economic equation. Small, for a better word employed less, relative to the funding of our military and associated industry. Again the industrial revolution and a capitalistic philosophy produced prosperity. I believe it was the late 70's that credit cards became universal and began to destroy and reversed personal financial potential and stability. A 20% personal savings was the norm with a positive inflow. Then women were forced to go to work which should have provided more positive inflow. The formula changed, assets became neutral and then negative. Remember 13% interest and mortgage rates? This reversal, and an acceptance of a normality of debt, continued to erode financial stability. Manipulative and creative financial method, allowed more debt with home equity loans, paying of one credit card with another credit card, borrowing from tax exempts and creative reverse mortgages. On and on until today I believe is a negative 25% equity today. Sound similar as what has and is happening today in government?

I believe that what you are saying is that WWIII (BIG war) is our only salvation.
Paul Michaelis
11:40 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Unfortunately, another big war WWIII wouldn't help this nation. We haven't the infrastructure to successfully wage a major war. Winning wars requires out manufacturing the enemy and we are losers on that basis.

.........I am a successful retired business man from a fiscal conservative business practice with no debt. Never had much debt when I ran my business and produced goods an services and sold them for a realized profits. Most important was to control spending. A performance audit was proof of productivity and a very well run small business. If I ran my business like government I would be bankrupt like I guess we are. If I asked my customers for more money than the product was worht it would be a cost to me instead of profit. nothing profound here, just a simple method of cost/ spending and a productive result. So what happened to the financial morality and understandings to get us here? I would truly appreciate opinion and answers without any political rhetoric.

How is it a net positive to manufacture things that destroy other things as well as themselves (i.e. a bomb) ? How does it help an economy to manufacture objects of war? I thought that wealth was created when people produce things that advance society, not destroy it.
10:02 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Mr? I'm assuming your product wasn't subject to government price controls like the homes I built. The democrats pushed me out of business and I'm irately bitter about it.
5:27 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Liberals have all the solutions until you ask them how to pay for their programs .Then they want to use someone else's money !
6:09 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Re-tired, and Conservatives all want smaller and less intrusive government until they want to get into a womens vagina for a trans-vaginal ultrasound. You just sound like the rest of the old angry white men commenting on here.
10:07 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
laura, conservatives want liberals to stop killing children, at least not have to be forced to pay for their immoral sex lives
10:45 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Now wait a second @ Laura, one of those angry old white men could be your father.
7:12 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
the deficit always increases under Republican presidents and decreases under Democratic presidents - that is a fact. and Laura - you are correct, what could be bigger government that someone telling you what you can do with your own body, and who you can love bs on ths whole big government - small government baloney
and the Tea Party - they are the destoryers of government and I really think we pretty much need government
7:18 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
and Mr.? I bet you needed a credit line to run your business - no business can run without a credit line - and it was George Bush who took a plus and turned it into a minus with the help of a Republican Congress so what did he believe in and what does it matter? When there is a recession, you cannot pull back you cannot cut - the Europeans tried austerity - they have gotten in a bigger mess - you do not cut when there is a slow recovery from recession so all this idealogy doesn't work you have to deal with exactly what is in front of you

henry - barney frank, gay lover of the former head of freddy mack who was a criminal and chris dood, friend of countrywide mortgage criminal angelo mozilla that trashed the American economy. they should all be in jail. WAKE UP henry
Paul Michaelis
7:21 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Henry, I can't believe that you actually typed the first sentence......"the deficit decreases under Democratic Presidents"? I agree that Obama is some form of warped socialist-Marxist but he ran under the Democratic banner and racked up $5 TRILLION in debt in 4 years, one third of all debt since the founding of the nation.
7:25 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
to pay for the debacle of Bush, that's what happened were you out of the country? were you in a coma? there had to be a stimulus or there would have been another great depression the US had to bail out the banks - and GM and keep our country from nose diving into the oblivion that jerk Bush got us into and all the mortgage holders who committed fraud on this world what can't you believe?
Paul Michaelis
7:50 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Henry, the KoolAid is getting to you. If what you write is true how come the deficit went up instead of down. You conveniently forget about the housing bust created by the Democrats when they decided that everyone should have a house regardless of non-qualifying incomes. As you liberals like to say from your side of the fence, when something goes wrong , it can't be the President's fault because he doesn't control the purse strings, congress does. And since congress was in Democratic hands during the bust....guess who's responsible.
10:26 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
henry, it was the banks, mortgage companies and government liberals that forced appraisers to inflate the value of real estate to defraud the buyers to get mortgages that were based on barney frank and HUD's stupid policies.
10:32 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
henry, you blame the victims, those that got mortgages during that inflated time are still underwater if they didn't already lose their homes. You must idolize Scrooge
7:36 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
and small case vic, I thought you lived just to ride your bike. You mean you actually work? that's great and thank you for working so that I and all the other losers can stay home, watch tv and it will all be on you - thanks, vic. Because I am just a loser here and never worked and don't wanna work and just wanta live off you - the bike riding, ipe using, wetlands abusing, small case vic - my savior Thank you vic, for supporting losers like me couldn't get along without ya (just sos you know, I am a 2nd homeowner in Ocean City - trying to take advantage every chance I get in every way of the locals here too ) so I got you coming and going
8:11 pm on Friday, March 1, 2013
Paul - that Kool Aid thing - so yesterday! The deficit had to go up because of the stimulus that was necessary to keep us from going into a depression. How was the housing bust created by the democrats? I believe a bunch of wall st. scum pretty much did that, country wide, the mortgage lenders who sold bad paper around the world and made huge money for themselves and none of them have gone to jail - those guys. The government is not working becaue of the Tea party jerks who will not make a deal of any kind I am all for loophole reductions I don't think Romney should be payng 13% tax - do you? forget I asked
10:39 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
henry, if you were smart enough to invest do you pay ordinary tax rates on your investment returns? Some people aren't to bright with finances.
Paul Michaelis
2:19 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
I won't forget, Romney has done nothing that Pelosi, Laughtenberg, Kerry and many in Congress don't do. It's the way the law is written and why shouldn't he abide by the law.....you certainly would if you made enough to do so.
You also have a short term memory if you can't remember exactly who besides uncle Barney set the stage for the bust, the banks did what the law prescribed and figured out how to game the system created by Democrats.

vic is retired and living off of SSI, Medicare, and a pension. He claims he has to go to work to earn a living and that is simply untrue. Not only does he not work for a living but he devotes a good portion of his retirement time to bashing unions - the very entities that enabled him to retire at a fairly young age on a pension. Much of the balance of his free time is dedicated to trashing people on SSI and Medicare. Not surprising - this is the mother's milk of old, bitter, hypocritical white guys - i.e., the last bastion of the once productive, now necrotic republican party.

Yes Henry, in the beginning I borrowed money and a small credit loan as start up. As I grew my very profitable business, I became self insured with established credit with my vendors on a 30 day only pay back. Never late or a default My growing asset base and realized cash gains ratio to expenses and spending, earned me unlimited and guaranteed already secured credit....a better rating than our governments. And Proud and Yates, as far as prosperity and war, I only repeated a statement "America always prospers in a time of war" but that was said years ago pre Vietnam. You seem interested in the war aspect of my comment. I am anti war and do not believe anything will matter if it comes to WW3. What happens to the associated business from defense cuts? I still want to know what happened to cause our decline since the 70's reversal of positive worth since the overuse of credit. I think I just answered the question. One more please? "How is it a net positive to manufacture things that destroy other things as well as themselves (i.e. a bomb) ?" answer: Japan and Germany
9:14 am on Saturday, March 2, 2013
@ Mr.? I was not only interested in the war aspect of your comment, I was merely baffled by the logic and inconsistency:
1.[ "And Proud and Yates, as far as prosperity and war, I only repeated a statement "America always prospers in a time of war" but that was said years ago pre Vietnam"]
No you didn't.
2. I agree with you mostly that over leveraged, deficit spending at the micro and macro level is poor economic rationale, as the the great recession has proven, and didn't have anything to add.
3. If you feel I was remiss in focusing on the main thrust of your post, perhaps that is because I did not feel you needed any support in patting yourself on the back.
12:15 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
@Mr. ?- Back around 1964, Lewis Mumford an American historian published a book entitled: "The Pentagon of Power-The Myth of the Machine" . . . his prognostications turned out to be so true when you look back at history from Egypt to the present. You can't have an industrial revolution while at the same time try to isolate it from the winds of war. It was Mumford's belief that war and it's bureaucracy that it creates forges the immorality that perpetuates the techno-industrial machine. The latest being: "drone warfare" There's this human disconnect here... like when Eichmann was gathering and storing statistical data on Holocaust victims...
Robert Yates

To your last sentence, try telling that to the people of Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Tokoyo, Dresden and Berlin. You are espousing the broken window fallacy of economics. If breaking stuff and rebuilding it causes prosperity, why not just bull doze and rebuilt everything every 10 years or so. Prosperity and Profit occur when you have a net positive return on capital investments. Intentionally breaking stuff and killing people does not satisfy this maxim, not to mention it is usually immoral.

@oldkodger: my post on economics would likewise apply to to the german and japanese bombings of allied targets. I was making an economic argument not a political one. I fail to see how flowers growing out of one's backside has anything to do with the conversation. I am merely saying that it is a fallcy to suggest that war has a net positive affect on economies.
Mr. ?
1:05 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
1.[ "And Proud and Yates, as far as prosperity and war, I only repeated a statement "America always prospers in a time of war" but that was said years ago pre Vietnam"]
"No you didn't. "...... No I didn't what? My mistake was only using quotation marks. Would you explain? "Intentionally breaking stuff and killing people does not satisfy this maxim, not to mention it is usually immoral". .....killing is ALWAYS immoral, and the most unfortunate cost of war. I was speaking of manufacturing. As far as breaking stuff, I will agree with "intentionally" is wrong. Also comes to mind is "obsolescence engineering " where a product is engineered to break, re
manufactured and purchased again.
"3. If you feel I was remiss in focusing on the main thrust of your post, perhaps that is because I did not feel you needed any support in patting yourself on the back."
No, not "patting my self on the back" just using my own business model as a comparative to government as reference to back up my opinion. Also I never said you were ONLY interested my comments about war. Sorry! Your reply seemed a little defensive to me, like I was being critical. I was not being critical.
Mr. ?
1:18 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Thanks Spooner for your information on Lewis Mumford and his publication "The Pentagon of Power-The Myth of the Machine"....always interested in educating myself.
Mr. ?
1:34 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
From Mumfords book: The Pentagon of Power-The Myth of the Machine , found this interesting: "..the centralization of political power, first in the emerging race of
tyrants and despots and kings, who subverted both feudal obligations and municipal freedoms in order to exert unqualified command over private wealth, by taxation, expropriation, and downright conquest and robbery of weaker peoples. Out of this personal sovereignty of the king by divine right, openly proclaimed as such, rose the impersonal sovereignty of the State. Under oligarchic or repub
lican rule, this collective agency claimed all the prerogatives and powers that the
king had originally claimed in person, indeed more sweepingly than any monarch had yet dared to do." FYI. Interesting and.................
1:43 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
When people like Mr.? go on and on about their success, it warms the heart. Except for one thing, timing is everything Mr.? and lately it doesn't matter how hard one works (or wants to work when there may be no work) times are much more difficult now for anyone to get ahead than say the 70s and 80s or 90s when you may have been in business (having no debt and self insuring - was that before every attorney on earth started suing businesses for every little thing which they do now because there is a glut of attorneys?) So just sit back and pat yourself on the back and tell us all how incredible you are while you sit in judgement of the losers who tried and failed or got themselves in debt trying to have a small business --- but timing is everything and maybe time was on your side. It certainly is not on the small business person side anymore so can it, Mr. ? (can I fill in the ?? Mr. Pompous)
Mr. ?
2:05 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
So Liz, please read above - 1:05. and you reply "So just sit back and pat yourself on the back and tell us all how incredible you are while you sit in judgement of the losers who tried and failed or got themselves in debt trying to have a small business" Please! Where have I sat in judgment? Thought I explained my experience as reference...was not to brag only to add premise a validity to my comments. And can I fill in your last name? Do you have any idea what that might be? Ahh!
2:43 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Timing is everything When Obama came into office, he had no choice but to do a stimulus -- Europe's approach was austerity and they are in much worse shape. Everything is black and white with the Tea Party and some people who cannot understand that different times call for different actions. Bush put this country with the Republican Congress into enormous debt - cutting taxes, getting us into 2 was - one for no reason whatsoever except to revenge his daddy? please Dick Chaney and Haliburton You Republicans certainly have a short memory
Robert Yates
3:08 pm on Saturday, March 2, 2013
Both parties are equally responsible for sinking this country into such dangerous levels of debt. You can only artificially prop up an economy by spending newly printed dollars for so long. Eventually the bond market will crash and the consequences will be considerably worse than 2008.

"Acknowledgments" is the blanket term used to cover the information that follows the body of the article and precedes the references. The Acknowledgment section is considered to be a continuation of the text, so that abbreviations expanded in the text may stand without expansion here. If a footnote that would normally appear on the first page of the article (eg, the affiliation footnote) is too long to be placed on the first page, it may be placed here immediately after the acceptance date and, if applicable, the online-publication-ahead-of-print information; if the journal does not publish acceptance dates, the affiliation footnote that did not fit on the first page would be placed first in the Acknowledgment section.

After achieving much success with their first single Don't Cha, the American quintet went on to achieve worldwide fame for their sassy, no-nonsense, dance routines and singles. With a string of awards under their belts the Pussycat Dolls have returned with their second album Doll Domination. With tracks produced by the likes of Dr.Dre, Taio Cruz, Timbaland and Eminem, they are sure to fire back into the limelight of the mainstream once more. When I Grow Up is the first single to be taken from the album. I Like Music caught up with Jessica the Pussycat Doll to chat about fame, staying in shape and dressing up as a skunk.
"I Like Music because…it is universal and we get to talk to everyone in the universe through our music." Jessica, The Pussycat Dolls
ILM: In your own words can you describe the vibe of your latest single When I Grow Up?
Jessica: It's a new sound for the Pussycat dolls. It was one of the strongest songs we had on the album. We're coming out with a bang! The song is about your desires and the ambitions you had when you were little, you know, 'When I grow up I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies.' But the catch of it all is 'Be careful what you wish for 'cause you just might get it.' Meaning that it may all look like glitz and glamour but there's a lot of work and a lot of things that you lose when you do become famous.
ILM: How have you dealt with fame?
Jessica: You know what, I've enjoyed every second of it. However, there are times where it is a little overwhelming or a little over-bearing because there is just so much that goes into it. First of all the promotion and travelling, which is amazing but sometimes very tiring. But as long as you look at it as knowing that you get to touch millions of people, it's all worth it in the end.
ILM: You're obviously living your dream career, what would be your advice to anyone else wanting to do the same?
Jessica: My advice would be just don't give up and that you can always be better. I always better myself as an artist, I'm always working on my craft. Also, just don't quit.
ILM: What do you look forward to most about playing live?
Jessica: The fans. Connecting with the fans. Especially in Europe and the UK, oh my God! The fans, they have loved us from the very beginning. It is just a different trip when we come to the UK! Plus I get to be on stage with my girls again!
ILM: What is your earliest musical memory?
Jessica: I remember when I was five years old and it was my dance recital and I was the skunk. Yup, I dressed up as a skunk and we had to sing [sings] 'Look at me, don't you think I'm cute, with my bushy tail and my...er...something suit!' Anyway, we did this song and routine and in it was this train thing, and I went the other way and stopped the train from moving. The whole audience was just laughing so hard! But, I do remember getting off stage and blushing and just thinking that was the best moment of my whole life.
ILM: So you've always danced and performed? Did you always know it was what you wanted to do?
Jessica: Absolutley. It was all I knew.
ILM: What's in your CD player at the moment?
Jessica: I really like electronic house. I'm listening to Ida Corr Vs. Fedde Le Grand, Let Me Think About It. I love Paul Oakenfold and Paul Van Dyke. My iPod is on shuffle. Sometimes I think I drive the other girls crazy with my music!
ILM: What would your ideal night out be?
Jessica: I like places in London. Um...I'd like to go to Nobu and have a really beautiful dinner with my friends and then later maybe go to Sketch. Um...and then hopefully come home early! If I was in Los Angeles, the truth is I don't really go out that much. But, I love to go out for dinner. Go out to dinner early, get home by ten, be in bed by ten thirty. That's my dream night!
ILM: What are your future plans? Is there anything left that you really aspire to do?
Jessica: Absolutley. I plan to enjoy every second of the Pussycat Dolls and take every moment in and not take it for granted. After the Pussycat Dolls my aspirations are to become a movie star. I would love to do that. I would love to put out a dance album and I'd love to have babies and get married!
ILM: Lot's to do!
Jessica: It is! Life is long.
ILM: When you look back on your career what are your favourite highlights?
Jessica: You know it's crazy because I was watching this movie The Bucket List last night on the plane and it was such a beautiful story, I just started crying! I have lived so much life and I'm only 26. Everything stands out to me. I look in my heart now and realise how worldly I've become. I've become a woman. To be able to share that with people, to share that with your fans, that's the biggest highlight for me.
ILM: How do you work with the rest of the Pussycat Dolls? What would be a normal day for you?
Jessica: We're not always at the studio at the same time. But if we are then it's a really fun working environment. The girls are my best friends. I just adore each of them. We have such a great working relationship. Just recently I went in to the studio because we are actually going to have another part to the CD so all of us will be doing solo songs. I went into the studio the other night to do a song. I got to hear Ashley's and Melody's songs and they are really good! I'm really excited about that!
ILM: Do you have a lot of in-jokes with each other?
Jessica: You know what? These girls are so funny! We're so close that we do just have all these inside jokes! We laugh from the heart, do you know what I mean? I think of all of them and it just makes me smile!
ILM: You work extremely hard and you always manage to look incredible! How do you maintain such a great image?
Jessica: It all comes down to discipline. When we got here I put my bag down, put my gym clothes on and worked out on the treadmill for at least 45 minutes. Then I ate a nice lunch. Put some make-up on and you know as tired as I am, I still have to fulfill this image of a Pussycat Doll and I understand that that is my job.
ILM: Do you find that hard sometimes?
Jessica: I do in a way. Sometimes I get a little cranky. But then I look at the otherside of it, how it would be if I didn't have this. It is really and truly always taking everyday and not taking it for granted, trying to enjoy every minute because it could be gone tomorrow. That's my philosophy.
ILM: Where is your favourite place to be?
Jessica: With my mum. Anywhere with my mum.

Had Grand 1.8 petrol version for 1 year
Pro Space, practicality, light and airy, visibility
Cons didnt have the courage to own it outside warranty: had new coil plugs, glove box lid, water pump, window winder actuator, clutch actuator, and i wasnt confident on the semi auto clutch longevity
I bought this car from a dealer but Citroen have decided to delete the VIN number and now I have to scrap my car despite doing nothing wrong (Citroen 'claim' the car was flooded in 2009 and should have been scrapped, I have had the car thoroughly checked and nobody believes this is at all likely). Thinking of buying a second hand Citroen? Hope that Citroen don't do this to you too. (I'm told by the local police that this affects 800 cars across Europe)
I'm disappointed with this car. Yes, it's got style, space good fit & finish and the 1.6 diesel engine is good BUT in use it's poor. The controls are incredibly fiddly and I am having to take my eyes off the road a lot to find the essentials. Visibility through the small mirrors and thick drivers door pillar are poor.I can't fathom out the trip computer and radio reception is poor. Economy mode-where you can't sit in the car and listen to the radio with the engine off- is annoying. I can't get a comfortable driving position or an even temperature from the fiddly heater controls. The gearchange is notchy and I don't like the electronic handbrake. The dealer told me there's nothing wrong with the radio so I will just have to drive around listening to static interference! Sometimes the "lights on" button on the key fob works. The windscreen washer reservoir is very small so regular topping-up is necessary. I emptied it on one 100-mile drive.The handbook isn't very good, I won't keep this car long!
Following on from my review of April 07, I have now had this car just about 2 years and I still like it. Even my critical hubby prefers to drive this and loves the cruise control.
The car is wearing well, although I had to have a new set of tyres after 30,000 miles and when it went to the tyre fitters they loved the gadgets in the car and the fact the middle of the steering wheel stays put when you turn the wheel.
I had occasion to journey from Manchester airport to East Yorks and hubby drove, being nice I let his mate sit in the front and I sat in the back. Wow! I was impressed by the leg room and the comfortable seats..
hubby still needs lessons in getting the back seats flat but I don't find it a problem.
Love the big windscreen but will Citroen please fit wider sun visors as driving to work in a morning means the sun keeps sneaking under the visor. Also wider ones too!
I'll definitely buy another citroen as I;m impressed with the electronic gadgets, I love doing motorway driving with cruise control (only prob now is staying awake) and I love the space in the car.
not sure if I have noted down the right model allthose letters confuse me.
Order a brochure, find your nearest dealer or book a test drive

Endocrine response and perceived stress test during an experimental challenge task in adult survivors of a childhood cancer
Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 05/04/2012
Laufer D et al. – It is suggested that the exposure to a life–threatening experience in childhood/adolescence increases the endocrine response to stress, and that the presence of depressive symptoms is associated with an elevation of plasma cortisol levels. A better knowledge of these mechanisms is important given that the dysregulations of the stress responses may cause psychological vulnerability.

Solid Jersey-Knit Cases
Wonderful top sheet
I love these as top sheets, but they don't feel firm enough or stable enough for me as a bottom sheet, so I use a regular flannel or a percale bottom sheet in combination with the jersey knit top sheet. I always use a percale pillow case -- smooth and cool.
April 30, 2013
I love the sheets. Great quality, great comfort! Jersey Knit sheets are not easy to find so I was thrilled when I found these. BUT BEWARE OF THE GREEN COLOR!! Not at all as pictured on my computer screen! I can only call it "St Patrick's Day Green"! Kind of a very bright loud Kelly green and I mean BRIGHT & LOUD!! Can't imagine anyone using this color in their bedroom. It could cause nightmares!
Thankfully Garnet Hill has a free exchange policy so I will be returning these for the ivory color. I wish these sheets came in more common bedroom colors like beige, brown, blue, "normal" green, etc. My bedroom is a green, brown & beige theme so the only other color I can possibly use is the ivory. At least the ivory color won't scream at me every night!!
April 11, 2013
Jersey- Knit
I love the sheets & have recommended to several people. There is only one thing that puzzles me about the flat sheet...it is so short. I can't even tuck in at all. But the up side is that the sheet never moves so it works for me. Very Soft, keeps it shape and doesn't bunch up while sleeping. Completely sold on THESE jersey-knit sheets.
March 30, 2013
Nice, but cases too large
Love the feel and quality of the sheets that I bought for my kid's beds. However, the bottom sheets can barely be tucked under the mattress, they need to be a little deeper. Also, the pillow cases are too wide...the pillows tend to come out during the night. Am debating getting my sewing machine out to correct the pillow size issue.
March 28, 2013
The material is wonderfully soft, but the ivory color is a baby yellow instead of a cream color as shown, and both the flat and fitted sheets are skimpy. I bought them on sale, and feel they're about worth what I paid for them so I'll keep them but not buy more.
March 17, 2013
Jersey Knit fitted sheet
I love jersey knit sheets. Because it hurts my hands to put on many regular sheets, I can not pull them. This sheet has a good fit. And so far it has no little pills that some sheets get.

depends on the depth of the quilt...measure it and call GH cust service11 months ago
That depends on what your quilt measures. The double/queen comforter cover measures 86" x 86". This is purposely smaller than our comforters in order to add to the loft when the comforter is inserted.We would be happy to send a free swatch so you can see if the quilt will show through.

Winter X Games snowmobiler dies after crash
In this photo taken Jan. 25, 2012 and released by ESPN Images, snomobiler Caleb Moore smiles while attending a news conference at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colo. Moore was in critical condition on Tuesday, Jan. 29, 2013, in a Colorado hospital after a dramatic crash at the Winter X Games in Aspen, and a relative said the family wasn't hopeful about the 25-year-old's chances for survival. (AP Photo/ESPN Images, Eric Lars Bakke) |
DENVER (AP) — Caleb Moore, an innovative freestyle snowmobile rider who was hurt in a dramatic crash at the Winter X Games in Colorado, died Thursday morning. He was 25.
Moore had been staying at a hospital in Grand Junction since last week's crash in Aspen. Family spokeswoman Chelsea Lawson confirmed his death.
A former all-terrain vehicle racer, Moore switched over to snowmobiles as a teenager and didn't take long to rise to the top of his sport. He won four Winter X Games medals, including a bronze last season when his younger brother, Colten, captured gold.

Crime IS down in Fenton, but shoplifting has been, and apparently always will be a problem, especially when people are pilfering items they can sell to purchase drugs. And if the biggest problem in Fenton is shoplifting at Walmart, I'd say the Fenton Precinct has a pretty good handle on crime in the city. Of course they'd be less effective all -around if they spent staff hours stationing an officer inside Walmart watching people pocket what they can. Besides, I'm not sure the police department is charged with preventing crime in the first place.

In the wake of this weekend's tragic news about the death of former NFL quarterback Steve McNair, it seems there have been more questions than answers about the horrific event. As details came in, the story gets more and more bizarre, but certainly not any less sad.
Nashville police are now saying that McNair had been dating Sahel Kazemi, the woman who was found dead next to him, for a couple of months despite the fact that he is married. Authorities have ruled McNair's death as a homicide, but are not ruling on Kazemi's death as of yet.

So I am either going to buy a 5'10 Potatonator or 6'0" Spitfire. Will be camping up and down the Pacific Coast this summer and wanted a board
that will catch small waves and just have some fun on.
The Potatonator will be NEW and the Spitfire will be USED! About 2-300 in price difference.
What do you guys think?
You could even throw a SP in the mix as I will have a longboard but need something for smallish waves that is fun not so longboard SLOW.
Would love to get all three, but that wont happen.

CFAC members envision Missoula's food future in April 2009. |
Membership in CFAC is about being part of the movement to build a healthy local food system. You're invited to join us at the table. CFACmembers are finding solutions to western Montana's broken food system.

CFAC has created a number of new markets for local foods with the goal of building economic opportunities for local farms, ranches, and food-related businesses, as well as increasing food access for all income levels.
Missoula Farm to School has connected Missoula schools with Montana growers to bring the healthy benefits of local food to the school lunchroom. Farm to School has also provided hands-on educational opportunities that teach students about ways to eat that are healthy for their bodies, their community, and the environment.
The Electronic Benefits Transfer program at Missoula's farmers markets enables folks to spend their food stamp dollars on fresh food, thus keeping more money in the community and putting good food on all tables.
The next generation of producers is eager to start farming and ranching, and they're looking to grow and raise the full range of the community's dietary needs: meats, fruits, veggies, grains, and dairy. They face several challenges in securing land and starting viable businesses. Many owners of agricultural land--including retiring farmers and ranchers--want to lease or sell their land to a new farmer, but they do not know how to find the right person for their land and situation. Land Link Montana is a farm and ranch transfer program in 7 western Montana counties to help connect landowners and land-seeking producers. If you are in one of these camps, we'd love to hear from you. |

Cultures Status Report

Last Updated: August 13, 2008.

The Cultures project aims at documenting cultural regions in the Tibet and Himalayan area, in contrast to the ways the area has been carved up into administrative units and polities by various governments over time. We have a provisional typology which we plan to publish as a "knowledge map" in the fall of 2008. We are also working on integrating those cultural regions into the Place Dictionary, and then they will be used to index various photos, videos, essays, and other resources within THL. We expect to have a well developed initial publication by the summer of 2009.

If this status report appears out of date, please contact us at to request an update, and we will do promptly. Limited staff resources and many projects will sometimes mean activity outstrips documentation.

Provided for unrestricted use by the Tibetan and Himalayan Library
