Scarlets v Dragons
Updated 9:09pm Friday 2nd May 2014 in Dragons By Chris Kirwan
This live event has finished
- Newport Gwent Dragons aim to do the double over the Scarlets following their September 23-16 triumph at Rodney Parade.
- Lyn Jones' men have had a shocking 2014 in the league, winning just one in nine.
- They have slipped down to 10th in the table and if they fail to leave Llanelli with anything to show for their efforts will be condemned to being Wales' worst region.
That's that. 34-23 and the Dragons will finish as Wales' bottom region.
Priestland bangs over a penalty to make it 34-23 after 68.
Topsy turvy stuff - Scarlets pile into the Dragons line then Will Harries breaks away only for the hosts to scramble.
Breakaway try by Prydie, the ball was stolen close to the Dragons line. Harries won the race to the clearance, offloaded to Leach, who chipped over the top for the winger. Tovey converts and it's 31-23 after an hour.
Rhys Thomas gone for dragging down a maul.
Extras added. 47 gone and it's 31-16.
the ball pops out of the scrum but from the resulting play it's Ken Owens that earns the Scarlets their BP.
Scarlets scenting a penalty try with their dominant scrum. Bell on but...
Burton makes it 24-16 in the second minute of the half. Back in it.
Teams back out and we are under way.
Dragons back in it (ish) with the last play of the half - Burton picks off Priestland, doesn't have the gas but gives it to Leach who puts Prydie over. 24-13 at the break.
Dragons boot a penalty and it's 24-6 approaching half-time.
Extras added. 32 gone and it's 24-3.
This is getting embarrassing. Another try and all too easy for the Scarlets. Jon Davies breaks through, inside to Gareth Davies, outside to Jordan Williams. Training ground stuff.
Extras added, 17-3. Could be a long evening.
Once again the lineout drive is defended only for the Scarlets to cross from the next phase, Gareth Davies darting over down the right.
Crikey, Priestland boots the Scarlets to within five metres with a cracking penalty to touch. Danger.
10-3 to the Scarlets after another penalty at the scrum - Priestland penalty.
Now Prydie will have a shot at goal from just inside his own half... short.
It's given. The lock reaches over despite Coombs' best efforts and Priestland adds the extras. Scarlets 7 Dragons 3.
No try from the lineout but we are going to the TMO for a possible Jake Ball try.
Scarlets kick a penalty to the corner. Cocky or just confident of earning another driving maul penalty/try?
Burton gets a swift chance to make amends and makes no mistake from slap bang in front. Scarlets 0 Dragons 3 after 10 mins.
Good start by the Dragons and Burton gets an eighth-minute shot at goal, earned by fine defensive work by Tom Prydie.
He pulls a simple shot wide left.
Rhys Priestland gets us under way.
Swiftly followed by Jon Davies and the Scarlets.
Coombs leads out his Dragons in blue and black.
Not looking like it will be a bumper bank holiday crowd. Pretty sparse in the stands and the terrace.
Dragons need big games from the back row of Lewis Evans, Cudd and Faletau.
Teams as planned...
Scarlets: S Shingler, K Phillips, J Davies (captain), O Barkley, J Williams, R Priestland, G Davies, P John, K Owens, S Lee, J Ball, G Earle, J Turnbull, J Barclay, R McCusker. Replacements: K Myhill, R Evans, R Jones, J Snyman, A Shingler, R Williams, G Maule, F Climo.
Dragons: H Amos, T Prydie, P Leach, J Dixon, W Harries, K Burton, R Rees, P Price, R Thomas, B Douglas, A Coombs (captain), M Screech, L Evans, N Cudd, T Faletau. Replacements: S Parry, O Evans, D Bell, J Groves, D Waters, J Evans, J Tovey.

Chargers finish season with 24-21 defeat of Raiders
San Diego beat the Raiders 24-21 on a wet, gloomy Sunday in what's expected to be Norv Turner's final game as Chargers coach.
Raiders could shop McFadden
It will not be a surprise to hear trade rumors involving Raiders RB Darren McFadden this offseason.
The Raiders signed Barron, who has not played a game since 2010. He sat out the 2011 season with a knee injury and went to training camp with Seattle last summer but did not make the team.||||||| Barron was a first-round pick by St. Louis in 2005. He has played 87 games and has experience at both left and right tackle. Oakland previously re-signed right tackle Khalif Barnes, who can play guard as well as tackle. Jared Veldheer is expected to remain the starter at left tackle.
Barron was placed on injured reserve due to a left knee injury.||||||| He was replaced on the roster by defensive back Quincy Butler. Barron is best known for his holding call that wiped out an apparent winning touchdown for Dallas at Washington in the Cowboys' 2010 opener, although in truth Pro Bowl quarterback Tony Romo was also at fault for not getting rid of the ball sooner.
The Cowboys and Rams have swapped underachieving former first-round picks Monday, with offensive tackle Alex Barron going to Dallas and linebacker Bobby Carpenter headed for St. Louis.||||||| Barron was the 19th pick of the 2005 draft and has made 74 starts for St. Louis but has been at least a mild disappointment. The Rams drafted Rodger Saffold of Indiana to open the second round of this year's draft and could start him at one tackle opposite Jason Smith, the second overall pick of last year's draft.
Barron is scheduled to undergo surgery on Thursday to repair damage to his thumb, an injury suffered in the fourth quarter of Sunday's overtime victory over the Houston Texans. The Rams are unsure how much time the rookie offensive lineman might miss, but his status likely will be updated following the procedure.||||||| Barron was in the Rams lineup in place of Orlando Pace, who was out with a right hip flexor and left hamstring injury.
After missing the first two weeks of training camp, Barron finally has signed with the St. Louis Rams, agreeing to a five-year contract. The offensive lineman, who was a finalist for the Outland Trophy following his senior season at Florida State, was the 19th overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft.||||||| Barron was expected to start for the Rams this season, but after struggling at a mini-camp over the summer, he was dropped to the second team. Now, his holdout has dropped him down to third on the depth chart. He should eventually move his way back to the top, but it won't be by the start of the regular season, according to head coach Mike Martz.

In a country where racism is still alive, it is important for White America not only to see, but also to understand Black America's story as well. For too long only a partial testament has been given to the adversity that affects millions of our people on a daily basis. Someone should take the time to find the "why." It is this question that millions of people never ask. Did CNN's "Black in America" answer it?

The Atlanta-area rapid transit system is soliciting community feedback on its Georgia 400 corridor initiative.
The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, or MARTA, plans to hold a public meeting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Mimosa Elementary School in Roswell.
MARTA says it is working with regional and corridor stakeholders to look at a number of alignment and technology options. The goal is to improve mobility and accessibility in the congested corridor.
The MARTA team plans to use the meeting to review the current status of the project, discuss the potential transit technologies and offer participants an opportunity to provide input on the alternatives that have moved forward in the analysis process.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel plans to raise property taxes in Chicago to cover about half the city's pension obligations, increasing the amount of money city workers contribute to their retirement.
The proposal comes nearly one month after Cook County property taxes were due.
Pension reform legislation will mean increased taxes and reduced retirement benefits, which no one likes to hear about. But the city has to do something to fund them. Mayor Emanuel's plan divides that burden between Chicago's homeowners and civil servants.
The proposal increases property taxes by about $250 million over five years - raising taxes about $50 a year for the average homeowner.
The mayor has been warning about the city's pension obligations, negotiating with some unions to get employees to contribute more. White collar and building trade unions would pay 11 percent, up from the current 8.5 percent.
Although he doesn't need unions to sign off on the agreement, officials say he has support from some labor groups.
Here's how the mayor's office says it would affect individuals:
Homeowners would take a hit. A homeowner with a house valued at $250,000 would pay $50-$58 more starting next year. That's $250-$290 over five years.
City employees would pay more into their pensions. A city worker making about $60,000 a year would have to increase contributions by 2.5 percent. The worker would put in $1,500 by 2019. Cost of living increases would be reduced.
Fire, police and teachers unions are not addressed in the mayor's plan.
The proposal will be presented to Illinois lawmakers in Springfield and must be approved by the General Assembly.
Chicago's pension crisis and the mayor's new plan could have an impact on the race for mayor in 2015. If early numbers mean anything, Emanuel could have a tough road ahead.
A new poll by the Illinois Observer found 40 percent of people surveyed said they would vote for Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle if she ran for mayor next year.
About 28 percent of voters said they would be undecided in the matchup.

Hi Lisa
Jean and I are now home safely from our fantastic South African holiday - the Winelands, game drives, Zulu battlefields, Rovos train and Victoria Falls were all absolutely brilliant. But we just wanted to thank you and Amy for getting our trip off to such a fantastic start in Cape Town and around. We couldn't have asked for a warmer or more friendly welcome, and your tips for places to go and restaurants to eat were spot on. Thank you so much.
Thought you might like to see the photo I took of you and Jean just before we left.
Thanks again.
Lawrence and Jean

Huairou Commission Land Academy Highlights Women's Successful Struggles for Land in Africa
"Women have decided to be at the forefront of decision-making, to be sure each village has land plans, and that each plan indicates where the land is for farming, livestock and homesteads. They are part of meetings that make these decisions." stated Ndinindi Kisimera, Director of Maasai Women's Development Organization (MWEDO). Unless women control the asset of land and secure livelihoods and housing, women can only take their community development work so far.
At the Women's Land Link Africa (WLLA) Land Academy in Arusha, Tanzania last week fifty participants from twenty-two groups in seventeen countries analyzed their common strategies, success and challenges in the struggle toward land and housing tenure. They affirmed the vision of the HC Land and Housing Campaign for a world where women can claim, gain and maintain land, housing and livelihood as a means of empowerment and the foundation for sustainable community development.
About Women's Land Link Africa (WLLA)
Since 2004, Women's Land Link Africa (WLLA) members and partners have worked together to improve women's access to, control over and ownership of land and housing in Africa. As a result, hundreds of women have gained access an ownership of land and housing through reversed evictions and disinheritance, registered marriage and death certificates, and obtained individual, joint and communal land titles. More than fifty community watchdog groups have formed to oppose and eliminate the eviction of widows and orphans from their land, over eight hundred plots of land have been acquired by women and grassroots women leaders have exchanged practices in over twenty peer learning exchanges and African regional Land Academies. The network has grown from four organizations in three countries to twenty-two organizations in thirteen countries.

How to Win Elections, Etc.
Obama and Democrats have finally shown us how to win elections and pass partisan legislation - You Simply Lie! Their lies are too numerous to list here but let's look at a few.
Benghazi was a spontaneous demonstration over an Internet video. We did all we could to rescue our people. NSA wouldn't spy on the calls, emails, etc. of all Americans or on the wire services and free press (think Associated Press). The IRS would never abuse its power by persecuting opponents (Tea Party) or infringe upon the political rights of a free people.
They had nothing to do with the 'fast and furious' operation or the Border Agents that were killed as a result. And the unemployment figures published (conveniently) just before the 2010 Elections that turned out to be completely fabricated (they wanted to give us the good news early).
Finally Obamacare - a disaster passed on the basis of false promises and claims (that they knew were false from the outset). Obamacare will mean better insurance and lower costs for everyone.
If you like your insurance and your doctor, you can keep them. No one's existing health insurance policies will be cancelled. But if they are, all these cancelled people will be better off because they will get better policies for less money. And it's certainly not redistribution of wealth, certainly not.
Too bad Catherine Sibelius and all her minions have failed so badly in rolling out the new system - they needed more forceful leadership. Where's Leon Trotsky when you need him?

In his new book Grace Transforming, Phil Ryken writes:
"We begin at the beginning, with our desperate need for grace. From the moment we came into the world as helpless babies, right up until this exact second, we are utterly and completely dependent on the grace of God for everything we have, including life itself. What is more, if we have any hope of life after death—eternal life—it is only because of God's free and undeserved grace for us in Jesus Christ.
Until we understand this, it is impossible for us to have the relationship with God that we truly need. But when we do understand this—when we understand our absolute need for Jesus—then his grace changes everything.
Past Experience, Present Need
Our need for grace may seem obvious at the beginning of the Christian life, when we first put our trust in Jesus. Then we know that if there is anything we contribute to our salvation, it is only the sin that necessitates a Savior. According to the good news of our salvation, Jesus died and rose again so that in him we would receive forgiveness for our sins and enter into everlasting fellowship with the true and living God. We are not saved by anything that we have done, therefore, but only by what Jesus has done. It is all by his grace, not by our works.
Yet grace is not something we leave behind once we decide to follow Jesus. Grace is our present need as well as our past experience. The gospel is not just the way into the Christian life; it is also the way on in the Christian life. We continually need to remember that God "saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus" (2 Tim. 1:9).
In my first chapel address as president of Wheaton College I said something that took some people by surprise, maybe because it's something that many Christians forget. I said that I don't know of a college anywhere in the world that needs the gospel more than Wheaton does.
In saying this, I did not mean to imply that there aren't a lot of Christians at Wheaton. In fact, every student, every professor, and every staff member on campus makes a personal profession of faith in Jesus Christ. Still, it wouldn't be surprising to find unbelievers on campus: in most Christian communities there are at least some people who do not yet have a saving relationship with Jesus Christ.
This is not what I meant, however, when I said that Wheaton College needs the gospel. I meant that the gospel is for Christians every bit as much as it is for non-Christians. We never outgrow our need for God's life-changing grace—the gospel of the cross and the empty tomb."
What others are saying about this book:
"Hebrews 13:9 says, 'It is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace.' As a church planter, I needed the truths in this book to strengthen my weary, performance driven, approval hungry, externally oriented, and self-righteous heart. My pharisaical heart was exposed, and I found myself praying, 'God, be mercy-seated to me, the sinner.'"
-David Choi, Lead Planter, Church of the Beloved, Chicago, Illinois; International Speaker
"To grasp the fullness of God's grace is to come humbly to Christ in empty-handed spiritual poverty. That alone may be the greatest challenge for any Christian! And it's why I so appreciate Dr. Philip Ryken's extraordinary insights in his new book, Grace Transforming. He points us to Jesus Christ in all his saving power, reminding us that without the Savior we are nothing and have nothing. If you are seeking a fresh look at your Lord and your own desperate need of him, this is the book for you!"
-Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder and CEO, Joni and Friends International Disability Center

Cursory Glance at Vikings' Offseason Topics(Scout.com)
Cursory Glance at Vikings' Offseason Topics
By Scout.com
Date: Jan 17, 2006
Free agency, the draft and recoveries from surgeries are some of the key hot-button topics for the offseason. While we'll cover them more in-depth as the weeks and months roll on, here is a capsule look those hot areas.
# RB Michael Bennett (almost certain to be playing elsewhere next season)
# CB Ralph Brown (future uncertain with new defensive coach staff coming in)
# SS Corey Chavous (unhappy with his contract, he is expected to leave)
# LB Sam Cowart (if Vikings are going to go to a Cover-2 scheme, veteran likely won't be this team's middle linebacker in 2006)
# K Paul Edinger (struggled from 30 to 39 yards, but should return unless new staff has someone else in mind)
# G Toniu Fonoti (has potential but there are questions about whether he can get his weight under control)
# C Melvin Fowler (desire to start could mean he'll go elsewhere)
# QB Shaun Hill (third-stringer is almost certainly gone)
# DE Lance Johnstone (pass-rush specialist might be considered a starter elsewhere)
# LB Keith Newman (might not fit into Cover-2 defense)
# S Willie Offord (injury ended his season early and certainly reduced his market value)
# WR Koren Robinson (Vikings have the right to match any offer)
# LB Raonall Smith (special-teams ace might sign elsewhere if it means more playing time)
# CB Brian Williams (looking for assurances he will be a starter)
# RB Moe Williams (expected to retire after finishing the season on injured reserve because of a knee injury)
# C Cory Withrow (could return to a backup role with Matt Birk expected to start in 2006)
The Vikings will select 17th in the draft on April 29. Obvious areas of need are running back, offensive line and linebacker. New coach Brad Childress and a yet-to-be hired personnel director are expected to make the calls on this pick, so it's difficult to speculate which way they might go.
With the Vikings playing a Tampa Bay-style Cover-2 defense in 2006, linebacker might move to the top of the list. Veteran middle linebacker Sam Cowart might not have the speed to play in that scheme and strongside linebacker Keith Newman also wouldn't be a great fit. Both those players are free agents and could leave.
At his introductory news conference, Childress talked about the importance of both the offensive and defensive lines. He could look for help at both guard spots and also for an eventual replacement at center for Matt Birk.
# Rookie P Chris Kluwe will undergo reconstructive surgery later this month to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right (punting) knee suffered Dec. 4 in Detroit. Kluwe, who missed only one game because of the injury, is confident he will be ready for training camp.
As for players who finished the season on injured reserve:
# QB Daunte Culpepper has been rehabilitating his surgically repaired right knee at his home in Orlando, Fla. Culpepper tore the anterior cruciate, medial collateral and posterior cruciate ligaments in the knee on Oct. 30 against Carolina.
# C Matt Birk, who underwent surgery to repair the torn labrum in his left hip in September, continues to rehab.
# Rookie S Dustin Fox, who was placed on injured reserve during training camp because of a broken arm, is recovered and ready to go. If Corey Chavous leaves, Fox could benefit.
# S Willie Offord (knee), CB Laroni Gallishaw (sprained right ankle), DE Kenechi Udeze (knee) and G Toniu Fonoti (groin) also are doing well, according to athletic trainer Chuck Barta. Udeze will begin having what Barta calls "impact-type activity,†such as on-the-field running, at the end of this month. "The impact is going to be a big test for him and how he reacts to it,†Barta said. Both Offord and Fonoti will become unrestricted free agents in March."From the fury of the Northmen, O Lord, save us!"

Re: Cursory Glance at Vikings' Offseason Topics(Scout.com)
Oldman I dont know if you added the stuff in those paraenthesis or if that was there but whoever put those in makes it sound as though most of our FA's will be looking else where!? To me the biggest scare for me with this is having such a large amount of turnover on this team. ALL new coaches and the possibility of losing 6 starters!
It is going to be an interesting offseason, I truly believe the Vikings are close to having a top caliber team together. But what I am scared of right now is that Wilf and Childress are going to come in and turn everything upside. Completely revamp the team and start from ground zero. We arent the 49ers, we have some good pieces in place already. What scares me even more than bringing in all these new players is that we have consistantly been one of the top teams at being under the cap every year and if we are going to be bringing in that many new player I have a hard time seeing us being able to continue that trend.
No one really knows what is all going to be happening to the Vikings this offseason, all I know is I am a tad worried about it
"I choose my company by the beating of their hearts, not the swelling of their heads"
Re: Cursory Glance at Vikings' Offseason Topics(Scout.com)
Let Bennett, Brown, Chavous, Hill and Moe (sadly) go.
Resign Offord, Fonoti (and send him to Jenny Craig) and Koren to contracts.
Keep Johnstone, Raonall and Withrow as valuable backups.
Keep Edinger as our kicker.
Keep Newman and give him an opportunity to compete for a starting position...he has earned it!
Keep Fowler and start him as one of the guards...he is versatile enough to play there as well...allows us to keep him as a backup center if Birk goes down again.
Keep Cowart and let it be an open competition at MLB...with Dontarrious and whomever we bring in new.
Let BWill have an opportunity to start at SS...he is a heck of a hitter and brings CB speed to the safety spot...which can't hurt the Cover-2 scheme!BANNED OR DEAD...I'LL TAKE EITHER ONE
Re: Cursory Glance at Vikings' Offseason Topics(Scout.com)
very interesting idea moving BWill over to SS.....I really like that idea I'm all for it!
"I choose my company by the beating of their hearts, not the swelling of their heads"
Re: Cursory Glance at Vikings' Offseason Topics(Scout.com)
Biggest one that worries me is Koren Robinson. Out of all of the players listed, I would hate to see him go the most.

"Cookie! Beeshie Cookie! Cookie!"
He still thinks his name is Beastie.
The husband said halfway to the store, The Lad got fussy because there still was no cookie in his hand. The husband explained again that they were on their way. They were almost to the grocery store and when they got to the store, he would get a cookie.
"Beeshie cookie," The Lad said. (I imagine him nodding. He does that a lot now.) "Beeshie BIIIIIIIIIIG cookie."
Meanwhile, I ignored the supper dishes and flopped on the floor to color with The Boy. We drew a rocket ship and sharpened every pencil he owns. We practiced writing his name. We drew silly pictures of each other, though he said he couldn't draw people.
"Drawing yourself is hard, Momma."
Triangles also are too hard, he said. "But look. I can draw big circles. A huuuuuge circle."
When Daddyman and Lad returned, we jammied and brushed teeth and The Lad gave his flying goodnight hugs all around. The Boy and I talked about California in my favorite chair and checked out his silly bands, the toy that just won't go away. We read some Harry Potter and had a "snack" with his stuffed animals in bed.
"What was your favorite part of the day?" I asked The Boy, just before tucking him in for the night.
"Um, I had two favorite parts. Coloring with you and reading Harry."
Me, too.
(The husband's favorite part was the trip with The Lad. I'm willing to bet the cookie was Beastie's favorite bit.)

CycleSF event canceled, but RecPark gets paid anyway
Bicycling around San Francisco has become increasingly popular with both residents and tourists, but apparently that doesn't mean people want to pay $40-75 for an organized ride around the city's perimeter, even when the money goes to the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department and the cause of putting more bike racks into the parks.
Despite a citywide ad campaign (for which I was one of several cyclists voluntarily photographed with our bikes) and aggressive social media effort, Jumping Fences – the company that also produces the San Francisco Marathon, which is set for June 16 – has canceled the CycleSF event it had planned for April 28, citing lower than anticipated demand.
The company had pledged $100,000 to RPD in connection with the event, which was to involve 13- and 26-mile rides through the city ending with a big party in the park, and the company announced that it would still be giving the department $25,000 despite "postponing" the event.
"We are disappointed Cycle SF has chosen to postpone their event. We are looking forward to working with them in the future on a family-friendly bicycle event," said Connie Chan, spokesperson for the Recreation and Parks Department.
Jumping Fencing Marketing Director Joanna Reuland contended that "awareness was strong" surrounding the event and she wasn't sure why it didn't take off. "It had become clear that we weren't going to make our promise so we thought it was probably best to just postpone the event," Reuland told us.
Part of the problem might have been how cheap and easy it is to cycle around the city and the availability of free monthly group rides like Critical Mass and SF Bike Party. Apparently paying to bike around the city just doesn't have the same demand as the San Francisco Marathon, which costs $35 for the 5K or $145 for the full marathon.
Some in the bike community also grumbled that the event was benefiting a city department about which many have decidedly mixed opinions, particularly given its closeness with corporate donors, rather than a bike advocacy organization such as the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, whose 12,000-plus members organizers did little to directly target. What whatever it was, it is no more.
Part of the issue here might be that the "bike community" isn't in touch with the average bike rider. The average bike rider may look at bikes as just a way to get around the city, not a lifestyle choice, many have no interest in lemming-ing it up with "the community."
Paying money to ride with some bike lemons?
impression that the bike lobby are a fascist group who are more interested in screwing over cars than actually working with others consensually to build solutions that are better for everyone.
Just as you cannot be progressive without hating the the successful, you cannot be a bike activist without hating drivers. Class warfare is a hard habit to break, evidently.
The three stages of progressivism - classify, separate, hate.
"Just as you cannot be progressive without hating the successful" (rest of the whining skipped) - did one of those big bad progressives say something mean to you? Awe poor baby. Can someone take this baby in their arms so he / she can cry in them?
Speaking of hard habits to break, making no sense is apparently one of them - or it is in your case. It's not an accident that the most progressive cities, states, countries make the most $, are the most educated, are the most innovative, and have the hightest QOL. Of course the most conservative locations are the exact opposite in all of these measures - your post is a perfect example of how screwed up conservatives are.
Instead of wondering aloud why poor people vote to lower taxes for the rich?
(Answer - because they hope one day to be rich themselves).
I see the only contribution you made is spouting your nutty fantasies about poor people wanting the taxes on the rich to be lowered. If asked, I would bet a majority would want a chance to get an education or for their kids to get an education. Guess what anon-dummy? It takes $ to provide for the schools, the teachers, the buildings, the desks, etc. And the rich with the most disposable income should be paying the highest % in taxes. It's no accident that when taxes were 90% on some people's portion of their income that the educational system functioned better in that $ was available for lower income families to receive a free education.
They also want clean air and water and a political system that's not corrupt instead of corrupt system where big $ can buy elections.
Fortunately for society, poor people aren't as dumb as you or as you make them out to be. Your team has one and only one tool - it's certainly not the facts, no that tool is massive propaganda like a one-party, communist state.
That's why a site like the Bay Guardian is so threatening to your team. No doubt you are getting paid to post here. What are they paying you? Come on, you can tell us here. I'll keep it a secret you piece-of-shit loser toady.
LOL. Otherwise nobody could possibly disagree with your class warfare manifesto?
We're not all motivated by envy nor harbor wet dreams of expropriating the fruits of success from those who have worked hard for it.
as it doesn't come from them.
So what?
Deterring enterprise and hard work means less revenues from everyone. The pie isn't a fixed size.
The 1% are happy to take money that doesn't belong to them in the form of inordinate tax cuts amid high deficits in time of war, paid for by working folk in the form of 15% Social Security withholding tax.
The 1% will be happy to see this country go down in a malestrom of ignorance and poverty by starving public education for needed funding.
And given the impending deficits of SSI and MediCare, the 15% (total, including employer contribution) is too little, not too much.
SS is insurance and so you have to pay a premium for it. It is not a welfare program paid for by general taxes.
"Only self-employed folks pay 15% SSI"
LOL. Because your employer pays half of SSI, and doesn't reduce your salary in response to that expense.
You think employers are very altruistic, don't you?
"SS is insurance and so you have to pay a premium for it. It is not a welfare program paid for by general taxes."
LOL. You probably believe there is an actual Social Security "trust fund", don't you?
Wanna buy a bridge between SF and Oakland? I'll sell it to you for real cheap!
an employer's ability to otherwise give higher pay. Nonetheless it is still inaccurate to state, as Lilli did, that the empoylee pays 15%. Clearly the system could be designed to work way, but it does not.
There doesn't have to be a "trust fund" for SS to be considered an insurance. The "I" in SSI stands for insurance, and that is why SSI contributions are capped - because benefits are capped and, once you have earned the max, there is no need to pay in more.
MediCare and SS pensions could be funded out of general taxation. But it is not.
The best taxes are the most broadly based taxed. That includes payroll tax and sales tax, but excluded narrower taxes like Estate Tax, CGT, Property Tac and even income tax.
I think D is a bit confused.
In any case, the "half is paid by the employer" story only made sense when the tax first came out, and to a lesser degree when the figure got bumped from 12%.
In fact, the employer certainly *does* reduce the worker's pay accordingly. How else could it ever be? Invisible hand?
Yes. It is a fact that every bit of the 15% falls on workers whether or not they are self-employed.
SS withholding is a tax on the workers labor transaction which the workers cannot evade. Employers, on the other hand, have options to outsource labor or purchase "labor saving" machinery.
And my point is that the 15% that's been collected from working men and women of my generation is being ripped-off by the carpulent "productive sectors of the economy" one-percenters, and my generation is completely qualified to observe what is going on.
It builds up your entitlement to benefits which otherwise you will not get, like a pension, disability pay and medicare.
Whether that makes you a viable employee is another matter, and it's possible that others can do your work for better value.
to start shutting the fuck up at a your earliest convenience.
"Topic 751 - Social Security and Medicare Withholding Rates
The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax includes two separate taxes. One is social security tax and the other is Medicare tax."
Notice how you get no benefits if you don't contribute?
Just like, er, insurance?
Sure they get called tax as well, and sometiems they feel like taxes. But if you don't see the difference, then you're even dumber than folks here thought.
and ad hominem attack.
We could abolish FICA and SSI, increase income taxes, give universal entitlement regardless of contribution history, and rename the whole thing "welfare".
But we do not and, until we do, the system is separate, distinct and has at least some key elements of insurance.
If I pay over $450,000 in Social Security and Medicare tax after working for 30 years ($15K per year) and I die at age 61, none of the $450,000 I paid is credited to me or my heirs. This is very different from insurance that would make a payout to my estate either for accumulated earnings on a whole-life insurance policy or as a lump-sum payout from term insurance.
Poorer people die much earlier than rich people, and lower income people pay a higher percentage of their total earnings for SS tax, which means that not only is SS a tax, but it's a regressive tax since the poor pay more of their wealth for it each year and they often get the fewest benefits from the program.
Eliminating the SS tax on payroll and replacing it with a tax on rents is fairer since it would collect part of the community generated ground rent; it would pump billions of dollars of income into the economy since working people would have much more disposible income; employees would buy more, businesses would have higher sales, and employment would increase.
You just confirmed the person's posting of "classify - separate - hate" by classifying conservatives one way, over-generalizing the differences between progressive and conservative places, then saying conservatives are screwed up. If you represent a typical progressive, then I'm ashamed to be associated at all with progressives. I'm a Green Party member, btw.

There is a difference between an honest conservative and a neoliberal trickle up libertarian capitalists. There are overlaps between honest conservatives and progressives.
But the neoliberal/libertarian capitalists are on an anti-democratic mission subsidized by the most greedy and powerful interests in society that progressives, liberals, leftists, moderates and honest conservatives all oppose to some extent.
One can attack that project without attacking honest conservatives. Indeed, the successful tactic of that project has been to play us all off against one another for their benefit.
on how much good conservatives have done for the planet as well. The Reagan/Thatcher axis weaned us off the insufferable nanny state that you yourself deemed to be excessive today.
I hope Tim deigns to write on Maggie's great influence on the west, although I suspect he would gag trying.
Thatcher and Reagan were anything but conservatives, they were radicals with an aggressive agenda that changed the status quo back 500 years to before the rise of classical economics.
Environmentalists are conservatives.
Guest (anon), if you keep seeing facists behind every bush maybe it's an issue with the observer and not with the phony strawmen you keep seeing.
Out of the hundreds of bike riders and supporters I've met over the years not one closely resembles your description. Hmmm. Most bikers mainly want safe places to operate, just as walkers and car drivers want the same.

Everything is written in the style of the professional activist.
They use their pet politicians the same way the NRA uses it's monkeys. The voters turned down closing GG Park twice, since the voters were too dumb to vote right the Bike true believers went to the board. etc...
Not Fascist, just scheming, one among many at the city level.
Yeah they're probably all the same person. I would bet anything that anon guy or gal is paid to post here. The rightwing organizations - thx to many millions of dollars from wealthy donors like the Kock brothers - have very sophisticated operations to spread their propaganda. And in just the past three years, it's exploded in intensity, number, spending, media tools used, etc etc. The fact that you see this site flooded with rightwing trolls is hardly an accident. Yeah they're might be a couple of genuine ones like Matlock - possibly - but the majority of the RW posts here are part of a large plan - run at the state level in almost every state - to dry up support for an organization that runs counter to the rightwing agenda.
Of course their biggest targets are the unions - public and private. That's priority one but this is also part of it. It's worked good on this website since they've driven away the majority of the BG's natural constituents.
It's going to take an amazing level of organization by those opposed to these fascists for they have big media and big money in their corner.
But surely not the last.
I was recommended this web site by my cousin. I'm not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my difficulty. You're wonderful!
The buzz word is cagers.

Streetsblog bans me for not toeing the cyclist party line even though cycling is my primary form of transportation and I've been hip deep in transportation and land use policy for the last ten years.
Instead of demanding investment in transit and shielding existing glacial surface transit from delays due to bike and ped facilities, they prefer to speed up the train wreck of raising barriers to driving before investing in attractive transit.
fragile and vulnerable they know their positions to be.
Note: SFSB block by IP address so it's trivially easy to get around their bans. I've been banned at least 4 times, and I just keep bouncing IP addresses.
I posted from the SF central library once, and got their IP address blocked. Too funny.
It really reflects Streetsblog's insecurity. I want to move an alternative transportation agenda but the direction we need to move to do that is not the one that takes us off of a cliff.
The SFBC's incestuous relationship with the MTA is raising eyebrows amongst their traditional base.
They get paid, their folks get hired, developers get rich, transit investment is abandoned and the costs for all of that fall on current San Franciscans through City services that continue to deteriorate and streets that are more congested with angry motorists that snarl transit and endanger peds and cyclists.
So your point appears to be that the "bike community" - something you don't define but presumably is made up of bicyclists - isn't in touch with bicyclists? So that's what you took from the article? That's strange.
I thought it said that the bicyclists - not enough of them anyway - weren't in touch monetarily with the organization that wanted to charge them $40 to ride their bike on their ride? That organization isn't the "bike community" - they're trying to make some bucks throwing an event. How did you come to the conclusion that bicyclists were at war with other bicyclists?
As to bike community, the last line of the blog may give you some sort of tip on that one. The people who define the "bike community" seems to be those people who view bikes the same way the NRA views guns, the born againers view Jesus, the I'm special because of my self identification.
Your last line is so strange, there is no war, there are people who ride bikes and there are the special people.
Jones (who posed for a picture with his bike free, FOR FREE!!!) seems puzzled why the "bike community," or anyone else isn't down for paying $40 to ride some place that 99.99999999% of the time is free anyways.
Maybe if there was a well planned and organized yoga flash mob with at the end?
A stupid idea from the fertile minds of the corporate-connected insiders at City Hall who think everyone is just like them.
Some people do in fact "pay to bike" -they pay dues to the SFBC. They pay because they see value in it. But why pay to bike around the city when you can do it for free? The fun of riding in an organizing event? Nope. There are free, organized rides like Critical Mass and SF Bike Party. The fact that it's going to a good cause? Nope, not when Rec and Park squanders money on corporate friends of the City Family. That leaves.... nuthin. No wonder it failed.
Free driving for all!
If bikes want "equal access and use" then they should be registered, licensed, insured and taxed, like cars and drivers.
Bikes are supposed to be registered in California. I've been cited, twice, in different cities, for having an unregistered bike. The Huntington Beach PD confiscated my bike & wouldn't give it back until I got it registered. As far as license & insurance, implementing that would involve yet more gummint, wouldn't it? The whole point of using a bike, for me & most people I know, is economy & simplicity. You start setting up requirements like insurance & that kills it.
I hate surfing in HB, hate surfing in HB, hate surfing in HB because the waves are always shitty.
Literally! They spent a wad on a treatment plant that turned out to be a long pipe that dumped raw sewage barely 4 miles offshore. And you thought Frsco was kurupt.
two years. What recompense does the victims of those cyclists if there is no insurance.
If you operate a vehicle that can and does kill, then you need training, testing, licensing, registration and insurance.
Of course you want "simple". Nobody wants to be regulated. The irony here is that it is usualy progressives who want more regulation - unless it's about them, of course.
Formulaic troll.
In Amsterdam this past week, it was too chilly for me to rent a bike, so I was on foot, the better to get to know the city more intimately. Everyone shares road and sidewalk space there pretty respectfully. One time, a guy about 10 years older than me biked past me at speed with minimal clearance cut in front of me and skid to a stop 20' ahead of me, unlocked his door and was gone. Here, the senior and ped activists would go on a whining rampage. But space can be shared if everyone knows how to handle the intimate mixing of modes, peds, bikes, transit and autos without wallowing in a steaming pile of victimhood. Americans are so concerned about what other people are doing that we've forgotten how to live our own lives.
Speeding past people on sidewalks with "minimal clearance" is an anti-social activity prone to cause injuries. Pedestrians have the right of way on sidewalks and they have a right to move about without "checking their mirrors."
I remember a story a friend of mine told of foiling a mugging in Amsterdam by steering the bicycle-borne mugger into his on-foot accomplice. Watch out on the sidewalk marcos: bikeys belong on the street unless you are moving dead slow.
Always the poor, defenseless victim in need of protection...waa waa.
to force pedestrians -- many of whom may be aged or otherwise infirm -- to "defend themselves" from you when you break the law.
I see at any rate that you opted for some foolish ad hominem nastiness rather than attempt to justify your intimation that bicycling on sidewalks is legal in Amsterdam.
"Wah, wah" the petulant and nasty marcos is a hazard to all that is good and just.
When everyone acts rationally, nobody gets hurt.
by, say, reaching to grab a newspaper or to wave to an aquaintance; or bending down to retie their shoelaces; or to change directions because they forgot something; etc., without getting creamed by some *asshole* on a bike moving four, five, or ten times walking speed.
You don't get to live in your private little bubble in shared public space.

Durham Police Chief Jose Lopez is defending his department after an officer shot and killed a man two weeks ago.
On July 27, an officer shot Jose Ocampo, 33, after he refused to drop a knife when surrounded by police in front of 806 Park Avenue. Ocampo's family criticized police, saying the killing was not justified.
Lopez is urging patience.
"We have to make sure the full investigation of anything that we do is done," Lopez said. He said police have to ascertain "what actually happened" and he added, "We have to be really honest with ourselves and not try people in the media."
The Clinical Legal Education Program of North Carolina Central University School of Law is representing the Ocampo family.
Friends say Ocampo did not understand what police were telling him as English was a secondary language to him.
The comments came during Durham's annual "National Night Out." It's a chance for police to engage with the communities they serve. Similar events takes place in cities across the country.
"Without the community, we're not going to be able to abate crime. We're not going to be able to make a difference," Chief Lopez said. "That partnership is extremely important. That trust is extremely important."
Durham's South side neighborhood hosted this year's event. It's a neighborhood that's in transition following years of crime. Bulldozers and construction sights are clearing out old, boarded up homes and new homes are on the way.

Five CTA rail lines will be affected by two nine-day shutdowns of the Wells Street Bridge in March and April, impacting at least 77,000 travelers a day, officials said Monday.
The 90-year-old bridge will be closed for reconstruction from 10 p.m. Friday March 1 until the Monday rush hour on March 11, and again from 10 p.m. Friday, April 26 until morning rush hour on Monday, May 6.
The reconstruction work will impact portions of the Brown and Purple lines during the week, and, on the weekend, the Brown, Green, Pink and Orange lines.
To get riders over the hump, the CTA will offer free shuttle buses in the same Loop pattern covered by the Brown and Purple lines; increase the frequency of some bus routes and run some Brown line trains on Red line tracks.
Work replacing portions of the double-decker bridge will add 50 years to its life, Chicago Department of Transportation Commissioner Gabe Klein said.
"It's a little bit of pain…but it will be well worth it,'' Klein said at a wind-blown news conference near the bridge with CTA President Forrest Claypool.
The work represents the first time the city has replaced a portion of a double-decker bridge, Klein said.
"It's really an incredible feat of engineering,'' Klein said.
On any given weekday, travelers make 77,000 one-way transit trips over the Wells Street bridge, officials said.
For more information, please visit the CTA's Wells Street Bridge Reconstruction section.

Prayers For My Daughter(UPDATE)
My daughter Brittany will have surgery tomorrow to have a kidney removed. It is not functioning and has a mass growing on it. She had a biopsy done about a month ago. They say it is not cancer thank God. She is in constant pain and has been that way for about three months now. I know people can lead a perfectly normal life with one kidney. That thought somehow just does not comfort me. She's 23 but she's still my little girl. She's just got to be okay. I pray she will be well and free of pain...

Mazey Named Campaign Chair for United Way
Dear Fellow Mountaineers,
This is Randy Mazey, the baseball coach here at WVU. I am currently the campaign chair for this year's United Way fundraising drive. We are way behind in our fundraising efforts for the current year. Everyone should have been sent the pledge form in the mail, but before you grab it off of your desk, I would like for you to take a few moments to think about something: there are very few opportunities in life to make an immediate impact on someone else's life, but when you do, it gives you an unbelievable feeling of satisfaction that you have given some of what you are lucky enough to have to someone who is less fortunate than you.
I witnessed firsthand the power of giving this past season with my baseball team. We finished the regular season this past year at Oklahoma State in Stillwater and the conference tournament was being held in Oklahoma City the following weekend, so we made the short trip across the state a few days early. We happened to be in Oklahoma City when the devastating tornados hit Moore, Oklahoma, which is only a few miles away. As soon as we saw the devastation that occurred in the aftermath, several players on my team came to me and asked what we could do to help. We tried to get the bus into Moore to help the victims but the police would not let us in, so we went to Walmart that evening and I told each player to load a grocery cart full of items that they thought people who had just lost their homes could use. Each player came to the checkout line with shoes, clothes, diapers, blankets and tons of other stuff. While we were shopping, a lady came to us and asked us what we were doing. She proceeded to tell us that she had just lost her home that morning, and for about a 3-hour period that day, she did not know if her children had survived the tornado because they were at school when it hit. Can you even begin to imagine? We invited her to go through our carts after we had checked out and take any supplies that she felt like she needed, and she did.
The following weekend, after we had been eliminated from the Big 12 tournament, we had an extra day in town before our flight left back to Morgantown. I gave our players an opportunity to take the day off because it had been such a long season with our rigorous travel schedule, but I also told them that I had found a way to go into Moore to help some families clean up after the disaster and that's what I was going to do. They could come if they wanted, but in no way did they have to. When I boarded the bus to go to Moore, every player on the team was already on there, eager to help. Please watch these short videos to see what our players did on those days:
Twenty years from now, our players will not remember the scores of the games that we played that weekend, but I promise you that they will remember what they did for the people who NEEDED us!
Thankfully we were there and able to help.
So if you are able to help with this campaign, please reach across your desk, grab that form, and sign up to help! You can do it for as little as $10 per month and you'll be amazed at how good it makes you feel.
Go Mountaineers!
