Deputy hurt in crashBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | January 28,2013A Rutland County Sheriffs deputy was hurt in a crash in Killington on Sunday.
Vermont State Police said Deputy Jayson Flood, 33, was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center for unknown back, neck, and head injuries after his cruiser, a 2006 Ford Crown Victoria, was involved in a collision with a 2002 Jeep Wrangler.
A hospital spokeswoman said Floods condition was fair Sunday evening.
Police said Flood was driving east on Route 4 near Pico ski area at around 2:45 p.m. and the Jeep, driven by Andrew J. Palmer, 37, of Rutland, was behind him.
Flood activated his emergency lights and veered right in preparation to make a U-turn, according to police, but Palmer tried to drive around him rather than obey and utilize caution when emergency vehicle lights were activated.
The cruiser sustained severe damage to the drivers side, according to police, while the Jeep sustained dents and scrapes to its passenger side.
Police said speed and alcohol were not factors in the crash. They did not indicate why Flood was making the U-turn. A dispatcher for the Rutland County Sheriffs Department said they could not comment on the crash as it was still under investigation by state police.
The Vermont State Police were assisted by members of the Rutland County Sheriffs Department, Rutland City Police Department, Regional Ambulance Service, and the Killington Ski Resort.

8 Spices for Your Health
Chili Peppers
Did you know that red chili peppers can help reduce high blood pressure? Research has also found that the ingredient that gives chilies their heat also helps the blood vessels relax. Researchers say that areas of China where spicy food is part of the diet have lower rates of heart disease and blood pressure than those with milder diets.
With that in mind, we look at ways to spice up your life and give yourself a health boost with exotic ingredients.
A natural medicine for centuries, it eases feelings of nausea for pregnant women with morning sickness or patients undergoing chemotherapy. Its main active ingredient is gingerol, which is thought to encourage blood flow and ease pain. Ginger can also help with sore joints because it has anti- inflammatory properties. It is rich in antioxidants to help the immune system.
How to eat: Try making your own ginger tea with root ginger and hot water. Add lemon juice or honey to sweeten.
An all-rounder, cinnamon is used in the treatment of colds, extreme period pain and diarrhea. It boosts circulation and is good for the digestive system. Studies have also shown it may help lower blood sugar levels for people with diabetes. It is also said to reduce cholesterol.
How to eat: Sprinkle on rice pudding or on hot toast with sliced banana.
A strong anti-inflammatory, it helps fight arthritis and bowel disease such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. It is one of nature's most healing plants. Research has shown it may also prevent Alzheimer's, reducing the build-up of plaques in the brain by half in tests and reducing brain tissue inflammation.
How to eat: Best added to curries, egg salads or rice dishes.
Green Chilis
These tasty treats are great for slimmers because chilies increase your metabolic rate, helping weight loss. They contain capsaicin, an anti-inflammatory that clears mucus from the nose and lungs, helping people with colds. Chilies also kill bacteria that cause stomach ulcers and can reduce cholesterol.
How to eat: Take hot chilies in curries and add milder chilies to stir-fries.
These aromatic seeds contain an oil that helps stimulate digestion and relieve flatulence. Cardamom is an ancient spice, native to India, found in desserts, vegetable, curry and pilaf rice dishes.
How to eat: Relieve indigestion by crushing a handful of seeds in half a cup of water with some ginger root, then add warm milk and honey.
Wasabi is a rich source of isothiocyanates. These are the same anti-cancer chemicals found in broccoli and cabbage. These isothiocyanates appear to activate enzymes in the liver which detoxify cancer-causing substances before they can damage the body. It also helps with inflammation associated with diseases such as arthritis, asthma and allergic reactions.
How to eat: Put a smidgen of wasabi paste on your favorite raw vegetable.
The oil from cloves is a well-known treatment for toothache and its antiseptic properties make it an excellent mouthwash. The main ingredient in the oil is eugenol which can also help ease the stiffness and pain associated with arthritis. It is a warming spice which can reduce congestion and stimulate digestion.
How to eat: Add to lovely, warming mulled wine.
It produces sulphur compounds that relax blood vessels, reducing blood pressure and ensuring the health of vital organs. It also staves off colds and is packed with antioxidants, so is another weapon in the fight against cancer. Given the obvious side-effect, it's best not to pack food with too much garlic but it works well in curries.
How to eat: Try slow roasting a whole head of garlic in the oven. The cloves will pop out of their skins and can be served on delicious warm bread.

Near the airport. Refrigerator with cold drinks to by and possibility to make coffee, even food. Good blankets!
Our room was in basement, really funny smell. The staircase is very narrow. Madrases dated, strings loose. Not clean enough (carpet, walls etc).
Being able to walk to the Airport is about the only plus for me. I had an early flight, so I stayed here just for convenience. But since then I have learnt that the strassenbahn starts early in the day (4::30 am), so really I would say it was better to stay in town, where the Restaurants etc are.
Close to the Airport means it is a reasonable walk back into town to sight see and get a meal etc. Nothing much except the Airport near the guesthouse. Room was shoe-horned into the attic. Place seemed small and tired compared to a modern hostel.
Shared bathroom is absolutely fine - don't let that keep you away from this place. It's an overall great value for this money.
Close to airport. Wi-fi worked ok.
Breakfast was absolutely terrible, a rotten apple with the cheapest peanuts from the market. Coffee machine didn't work. Breakfast maintenance nowhere to be found. Only one toilet in use throughout the whole building. The room was terribly hot with no ventilation what so ever on the roof. Only roof windows which couldn't be opened during our stay (rain). So didn't have to sleep for a minute. The truck rally started early in the morning on the street nearby so earplugs recommended.
10 min walk to airport, OK to stay for 1 night
Clean, good size room. Wifi was excellent.
Clean room
Poor access to staff Poor info for non German speaking Shared Bathroom Only Small towels for bathing No blinds on skylights above bed No fire escape No info for TV operation.
Excellent place to stay if you have early flight from airport,clean and friendly
Low noise isolation,no Wifi
best hostel/guest house i have ever stayed in
Close to Bremen City airport, good location if you have early morning flight
Hidden info about shared wc and bathroom at the booking, old furniture, very noisy from the street and so noisy neighbours, we can't sleep all night befor our flight. It is cheap hostel , but to compare with the comfort it is high value of money.
very near airport big room
Good location, just 10 minutes walk from Bremen airport, so was easy to get to the airport at 04.30 in the morning with two kids.
Taking a shower wasn´t the best, but satisfactory to the money.
Location near airport,nice and clean room
Good location, 15 min from airport. Quiet room. Clean.
Did not have shower and toilet in the room. Toilet and shower were in the same room, so when neighbour room uses the shower for 1 hour you cannot go to the toilet. Did not have private towels etc. Oldfashioned room.
Nice and friendly.
Difficult to find and get there.
Everything was amazing! The house is very clean and cozy. The pillows and blankets are comfortable and soft. The room had a magical view on the stars at night! We were very glad to stay there and with great pleasure would love to come back! Thank you!
Good location very close to airport. We had an attic room, which was reasonably spacious. Owner was flexible and gave us breakfast at 8 pm in the evening when my 3-year-old decided that she needed to eat before going to sleep.
We had to wake up very early in the morning for a flight at 6 am from the airport. I'm not sure what happened but there was absolutely no electricity. We couldn't turn on the lights to pack, brush our teach, use the toaster for breakfast or heat water for tea in the kettle. I also couldn't figure how to get hot water to take a shower.
My review will be more descriptive. The guest house is really near of airport - 10-15 minutes by feet. There are 4 rooms - 2 on 3rd floor(№1 and №3) and 2(№2 and №4) in the basement. We stayed on 3rd floor. The kitchen and bathroom are shared with another room on the floor. On the kitchen there are microwave, plate with oven, fridge, toster, kettle and coffee machine. Tee, coffee, drinks in fridge, snacks - for everything you (seems) have to pay, but we had own food, so we only used microwave, fridge and kettle. The bathroom had toilet, bath and shower. The only problem there, is that Bath/shower doesn't have the curtain, so floor can go wet. I stayed there with my wife and 2 kids, for smallest kid we got a child bed, and older one just slept on coach, but as far as I understood it is possible to get additional bed for child. The wi-fi is really free and the speed is quite good. Not far away(10 minutes by feet) there is a tram station, so you can get to city center really fast. To summarize I would say that the conditions are really good for 1-2 night before/after flight, but if I would need something more sightseeing oriented, I would probably pick another option.
Quiet semi-basement room with view over garden. Close enough to airport for a good brisk walk to the airport down well-built sidewalks and through a small impressive park!
The handdrawn map on homepage is over simplified. The street is a huge boulevard with trees in the middle. If you use tram from central station it's difficult to find. This street has a crazy numbering system of even numbers on one side, uneven on the other.
Very nice rooms and everything is fine.
Very loud because next to some main roads in Bremen.
the hotel was close to the airport and not far from the city center either (10 minutes by car).
- shared bathroom which is not clearly visible when you book the room. - the room itself looks old and unwelcoming.
To the airport is 15 minutes walk.
Shared kitchen and bathroom. Creaking door and floor. Very cold.
Noise during the night
A friendly guesthouse with an informal relaxing atmosphere. Very good value for money and very convenient for both the airport and the city of Bremen.
Close to the airport. Nice spacious room and good kitchen area if required. The room was warm considering the bad weather (snow) at the time.
A little walk to the Number 6 tram line (15 mins) and nearby restaurants were minimal.

HSE supports Men's Health Week 2014
Men's Health Week (MHW) runs this year from June 9 until June 15, supported by the HSE and a wide range of organisations nationwide. The aim of Men's Health Week is to encourage men in Ireland to be aware of their own health and wellbeing, and to take action to take care of it.
Finian Murray, Men's Health Development Officer with the HSE, said: 'Men on the island of Ireland experience more ill-health than women, and have lower life-expectancy – male life expectancy (LE) is 75.1 years, approximately 5 years younger than that of females and, for certain groups of men who experience greater social deprivation, it is likely to be younger still.'
More info click here
Encouraging people to be more active should be just that, increasing activity levels. It is not all about doing an exercise session a couple of times a week its about finding ways to be less inactive throughout the day. Stand up while you are on the phone, take a little break every hour to get a glass of water, climb the stairs etc. Do whatever you can to break up your periods of inactivity.
We are now offering a couch to 5km team competition for you and your employees to become more active. Its not about who runs the fastest but about who puts in the most effort. A team of walkers could beat a team of runners if they put in the effort. Everyone will learn more about themselves, try new things and make a few changes that will become long term healthy habits.
To find out more please get in touch or use the contact us form and we will be back to you within one working day at the latest.

Sheriff Christopher Screws Up and Cost Sussex County $7,426,461
It is all laid out for you in this Delaware Right Guest Post by Georgetown lawyer John Sandy. Sandy took a look at the recent bid documents reprocuring process serving services in the County. The Constitutional Sheriff couldn't bring himself to follow the requirements of the RFP and lost the contract. A contract that should have added about $7M to Sussex County coffers. Seriously — go read the whole thing. Mr. Sandy provides documentation to back this up and also takes a look at how Christoper paid for his lawsuit via a non-refundable retainer with one of the law firms that represents the County. He claims that since it was a non-refundable retainer, that his lawsuit where multiple courts told him his view of the constitution wasn't even worthy of a fiction award, that the taxpayers paid no money for his defense. Sussex doesn't operate on a retainer basis and Sandy provides a summary of the invoices presented to the County to defend his boondoggle. Seriously folks, go read the whole thing. Not only is Christoper a bad constitutional scholar (?), he's been an incompetent administrator of the office, losing a major revenue stream. And he is a liar. Sussex County citizens should send him to jail.
Speaking of White Privilege….
The Wall Street Journal reports that Hunter Biden failed a drug test for cocaine last year and was discharged in February of this year. For reasons passing understanding, he received a commission as a public affairs officer in the Naval Reserve after receiving a special waiver due to his 42 years of age. This was after a career as an attorney, a lobbyist, and an investment banker. Given those careers, it is likely that this was not Hunter's first encounter with cocaine (yeah, you don't start at 42).
I am sure Hunter is not expecting there to be consequences, other than public embarrassment and discharge, which have already taken place (and the embarrassment will continue for a while). And he likely will not be. That is quite a privilege.

Combating The National Republican Fear Campaign?
It is well understood by communications experts that fear is an extremely powerful emotion to reverse. The RNC is executing a powerful national campaign of fear, based mostly on ISIL and Ebola. It is grounded in their national and local messaging strategy that government doesn't work, especially an Obama/Pelosi government.
Thursday Open Thread [10.15.14]
First Read: "But here is something else we need to say about the Ebola story: The level of panic doesn't match the crisis, at least not yet. So far in the United States, one man (from Liberia) has died, and two nurses have been infected from caring for him. And at this rate, it's possible another health-care worker (or two or three) might get infected, too. But compare this with the thousands who have died from the disease in West Africa, plus the thousands who die from the flu and car accidents each year."
Three people out of three hundred and fifty million. Three people in one city, one hospital. Three people connected to only one incident. I wonder why that is. I wonder why the public is hysterical. Could it be that the media and certain Republican candidates are stoking the fear for ratings and votes?
If the disease pops up in Cleveland and other cities based on that idiot Texas nurse did (she should be fired as a nurse and have her license forever revoked), then we can start to get a little bit concerned. If it spreads to more people and more cities after that, then we can start panicking.

South Carolina Prosecutors Say Stand Your Ground Doesn't Apply To Victims Of Domestic Violence. Well, of course not! Stand Your Ground is for white men who want to shoot people with impunity! So silly to think that an expansion of 2nd Amendment rights would apply to you women and colored people:
In the cases of women who claim they feared for their lives when confronted with violent intimate abusers, prosecutors say the Stand Your Ground law shouldn't apply.
"(The Legislature's) intent … was to provide law-abiding citizens greater protections from external threats in the form of intruders and attackers," prosecutor Culver Kidd told the Post and Courier. "We believe that applying the statute so that its reach into our homes and personal relationships is inconsistent with (its) wording and intent."
Poll of the week discussion thread
Today's poll asks DL readers so indicate (in general terms) why they plan on voting for the person they will be voting for in the Carney vs. Izzo vs. August showdown for Congress in three weeks.
Normally I'd choose "I just automatically vote for the Democrat" but since Carney cannot lose this election, I'm going for Bernie August this time to try and cut Carney's margin of victory by one vote.
Brenda Mayrack is Wiping the Floor with Tom Wagner
I've been listening to this debate on WDEL and Brenda Mayrack is really crushing it here. Wagner is crouching behind a story that his is a technical and complex job, which is why he isn't doing accountability and watchdog roles — even though he thinks he should be re-elected to do accountability and watchdog work. He sounded *very* condescending to her and she bypassed that BS to stay on her message. Wagner spent a great deal of his time explaining how the real work of accountability belongs to agency management and the legislature. Basically, Wagner wants you to know that:
Tuesday Open Thread [10.14.14]
The GOP in Asheville, NC objected to a rainbow flag hung at city hall (voted on unanimously by Asheville City Council), and the GOP hung a Nazi swastika flag alongside it as a protest.
This is how we know them, right?
Another reason to vote for Bernie August instead of John Carney
John Carney's greatest accomplishment in congress, the accomplishment that he puts on the top of the list of reasons why he should be re-elected is that he "sat down with Republicans." Yes. The very Republicans who continue to scheme to undermine the economic recovery to further their own narrow political aims. The Republicans who have never even pretended to reciprocate John Carney's ardor for compromise and bipartisanship. John Carney just thinks they simply need to be "sat down" with. It is absolutely ludicrous that he is claiming "sitting down with Republicans" as a great accomplishment, but there you have it.
So every Democrat has a choice in this election – reward that kind of obstinate ignorance with a meek party line vote, or vote in a way that affirms your Democratic values by saying "yes" to Bernie August.
Monday Open Thread [10.13.14]
This ought to be the talk of everyone today — with the Texas Ebola problem, we are seeing how the US Public Health system has been deliberately broken:
That chart is from a great piece in the Scientific American, showing how Public Health spending has been on the decline. The author, Judy Stone, provides some context for how Public Health considerations have been undermined over the past few years. Read the entire thing, then take a look at some of the material she provides in the links at the end of the article:
QOD — How Can An Accountability Testing Scheme Produce Such Low SAT Scores?
We found out this week that approximately 25% of Delaware's High school students are college-ready, in terms of their SAT scores. Leaving aside that SAT scoring is not the most reliable measure of college-readiness, what is the correlation between the SATs and the DCAS testing regime in Delaware's schools? It seems to me that if DCAS measures what a kid is learning (yes, I know that is a BIG IF), and the kids are taking a curriculum that makes them ready for college, how can the SAT scores be so out of line with all of this testing? It is pretty remarkable to me that DCAS is used as an accountability test, but that it apparently all of that learning it measures doesn't translate to better SAT scores.
I am voting against John Carney's bipartisanship idiocy by voting for Bernie August
In spite of how brazenly Republicans have decided to undermine the economy for their own narrow political ends, and in spite of the fact that even the so-called "moderate" Republican friends of John Carney never break with their leadership and reciprocate his affections – John Carney can't shut up about how great it is to "work with" Republicans" and he even considers "sitting down with Republicans" his greatest accomplishment in congress. With "accomplishments" like that, who needs failures?
The upshot is that Carney has not given Democrats any reasons to vote for him. That is why I'm voting for the Green Party candidate Bernie August. I may even give money to the guy. But make no mistake – I am a Democrat.
I want Democrats to win elections because at the Party's core, we are is still the party of the American working man. Also, when Democrats lose elections, that means Republicans win. And yet, in this case there is no downside to voting for the Green Party candidate. Rose Izzo cannot win. John Carney cannot lose. The only question is the margin of victory.
If Carney wins by one fewer vote this election, that's fine with me. If two years from now he wins by 10 fewer…great. If, in some great and glorious future, Democratic voters eventually decide that their votes needs to be EARNED then eventually, John Carney will get the picture.

Why does the Guardian hate BHO so?
I'm beginning to think that they are a racist rag that should be boycotted here in the states.
It could just be however, that they are still jealous that we won our war of independence, and became the shining beacon of human liberty and rights while they still entertain royalty. WHat are the odds they'll ever get a black prince, princess, king, or queen, as we did a pres, no?
For several years, federal judges have done nothing to remedy this injustice; one famously concluded that the prisoners sentenced under the old law had simply "lost on a temporal roll of the cosmic dice". So, there are American citizens serving tens of thousands of years in prison because, according to all three branches of government, it's just their tough luck?http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/jul/23/us-v-blewett-obama-justice-department-shame

It looks like the Greenwald left has a lot of recruits
it sure is tragic that so many elected leaders have gone down the conspiracy kook trail, ain't it?
I'm shocked that Kos would even allow such treachery to be reported on his board.

Should they take the "foreign" outta FISA, and rename it
or add "domestic" to it for accuracy?
I do think so. Furthermore, for those who seem to think that poor BHO has been unjustly/unduly criticized for his role in all of this, it seems to me that defenses of him over it are getting narrowed down to whether or not he was ignorant as to the scope of it all, as well as all the "interpretations" of this and that. This is why I suggested weeks ago now it seems, that if illegality or unconstitutionality questions are present in terms of implementation of the "interpretations" that he's long been aware of, then it's a mystery to me why he couldn't simply quit stonewalling on the legal front and allow the cases pursued to be heard in open court http://www.guardian.co.uk/law/2013/jul/09/fisa-courts-judge-nsa-surveillance in way similar to but not to be confused with refusing to defend DOMA. It seems to me an argument against that would require the assertion that he can be compelled to keep defending against any non-FISA court scrutiny with national security, state secrets, etc claims.
Much like with his offering up chained cpi, it's his choice in this matter that damns him, whether or not in that case it is actually inevitably put on the chopping block or not.
That's also why I say he has more ownership of all this than his adoring fans have been willing to admit to this point. And quite frankly, it's a mystery to me given that BHO himself has framed all this as a weighing of national security v civil liberties, and that it's practically a given which side he's gonna lean towards, why any of this would surprise anyone anyway.
but what could a racist/Bushbot/Paulite know, no?
Some Democrats and civil libertarians have expressed disappointment in what they say is a pattern of excessive secrecy from President Obama. He had pledged to run a more transparent administration than his predecessor, George W. Bush, who signed off on the NSAs controversial warrantless wiretapping program and, with the authorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, launched the bulk data-collection program that has continued.

SO the WP had to post a correction about Greenwald eh?
Surely these errors in reporting don't matter, because he's obviously guilty of so much more, like practicing journalism for example. I'm surprised that none of his detractors haven't tried to make hay outta the fact that he rescues dogs off the street. Surely there's something nefarious about that just waiting to be revealed.

That damn Greenwald is at it again
will his racist scaremongering ever end, and should the Guardian oversee his work more closely and print them in colors representing "error alerts"? His noting for example as I recall, that the NSA power point used "direct access", was a biggie.
That's why Democratic senators such as Ron Wyden and Mark Udall spent years asking the NSA: how many Americans are having their telephone calls listened to and emails read by you without individualized warrants? Unlike the current attempts to convince Americans that the answer is "none", the NSA repeatedly refused to provide any answers, claiming that providing an accurate number was beyond their current technological capabilities. Obviously, the answer is far from "none".http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/jun/19/fisa-court-oversight-process-secrecy

Are fears of big "brother" racist?
Posted by stupidicus | Tue Jun 18, 2013, 09:19 PM (18 replies)
The "real" reason for alleged NSA excesses?
I've long thought as many others no doubt have, that big brother is less worried about threats from without as those from within.
After all, what foreign threat threatens the corporate grip on power in this country, and all that entails? Since 9/11, OBL has won if the goal was to witness that pain and worse with some of the self-inflicted variety to follow. Sadly that's happened, and we all know who has suffered the most and worst of it, and it ain't the 1%.
If you assume that big brother is mostly a righty given the way our gov has married the corporate/monied interests, then it's pretty clear he has problems within his own family on the domestic front. The reason why they so vociferously killed the 2009 DHS report on the growing rightwing extremist threat in this country was no doubt due to the guilt by association thingy, and it also no doubt had a role in their recent outrage over the IRS thing. Maintaining victim status while being the victimizers is critical to the success of any "Big Lie" effort. That is after all, what underlies the great "war on terror" we're embroiled in that this NSA stuff is alleged solely attached to/directed at. The fear that rightwingnuttery itself (in its current form here in this country anyway) might become suspect as a governing ideology should more McVeighs arise, is likely a rational one, so I can understand why they'd wanna ride herd on their own.
And then of course is the threat of we good guys to consider.
But why have Western security agencies developed such an unprecedented capacity to spy on their own domestic populations? Since the 2008 economic crash, security agencies have increasingly spied on political activists, especially environmental groups, on behalf of corporate interests. This activity is linked to the last decade of US defence planning, which has been increasingly concerned by the risk of civil unrest at home triggered by catastrophic events linked to climate change, energy shocks or economic crisis or all three.http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/06/14/nsa-prism-pentagon-bracing-for-anti-government-activism-over-climate-change-disasters/
Methinks they've long recognized and rightly feared this looming perfect storm, and that inevitably it will be non-ideological climate change and dedicated self-interest it will foster in the individual that give the storm its fury and strength. After all, to mitigate the human toll and suffering here and abroad AGW will bring is likely gonna require "socialistic" solutions their ideology will never entertain or offer -- not without a big fight anyway. That's why I've long seen the neverending and increasing wealth inequality and increasing radicalization, apathy, ect of the rightwing in this country as analogous to the building of the arks in the movie 2012. They want their horde of wealth to be maximized before circumstances and happenstances start wittling away at it, so that they are still on the top of the wealth mountain when the waters recede.
While they've always played the survival of the fittest/laws of the jungle game, never before have they faced the existential threat to their power they are in this country. Hell, I'd guess that looming brown demographic tsunami alone (who as we all know, is comprised soley of lazy and freeloading socialists) would be sufficient cause for their fears. They should just make their job of spying on them easier, and give them all Obamaphones like so many trojan horses.

What do NSA's likely excesses and DOMA have in common?
I'd say they are both laws on the books.
In the one case, BHO decided he/we could/should ignore the law based on his perceiving it as unconstitutional http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/02/23/obama-doma-unconstitutional_n_827134.html whereas in the latter that isn't as far as we know, even under consideration. This is why more than anything else, I think all of the arguments I've seen made regarding who does and doesn't own this abomination, give him a disproportionate share of that ownership. Similarly, Ive never understood the well he has to, because if another attack occurs rightwingers will crucify him! line. How Id ask, by revealing state secrets in the form of what could be done versus what has been done that Snowden shined the spotlight on?
One could make the case that he simply doesn't think unconstitutionality to be the case, but if that's so, why not make that case? It looks like a chink has been found in the secrecy armor https://www.eff.org/document/fisc-opinion-and-order-granting-effs-motion and the likelihood of other Snowdens and revelations are inevitable anyway -- kinda like the terrorists communicating in ways most of this garbage won't catch going forward. Id question how many have been caught recently based on this stuff alone anyway. http://www.juancole.com/2013/06/others-headley-rotella.html#more-34906
And how are we to ever know if the proper and acceptable balance has been struck between our 4th Amendment rights and national security if we don't know the extent of the infringements upon them? Imo, this situation adds some life and truth to the worst thing Saint Raygun ever said as President to be and beyond -- "the nine most feared words in the English language are - "I'm with the Government and I'm here to help.", which led directly to the brand of rightwingnuttery we are burdened with today. I'd grant that his reasons for uttering those words were grounded in economic, etc, issues as opposed to national security, but distrust is distrust.
The last thing this country needs is more distrust in its government, and I don't see how this whole issue can be discussed and debated without considering the ramifications of further erosions. This of course can translate into voter participation or not http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entry/obama-admits-democratic-turnout-dips-in-midterm-elections?ref=fpb and with 2014 just around the corner, I'd think participation is what the dems would want, and this discourages that -- kinda like continuing to support DOMA would have, or chained cpi being shoved down our collective throats. And the need for that trust is hardly confined to trifling issues. http://consortiumnews.com/2013/06/12/obamas-dangerous-dilemma/
BHO is just a small part of the big picture, even though he has the greatest influence right now on what that big picture will inevitably be. The cult of personality that are subordinating the issues to keeping his Teflon coat intact are obviously blind to that fact. While hindsight is no replacement for foresight, it remains far better than the blindness a lack of using it results in.
"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it"
And like all iceberg riders http://thehill.com/video/house/305047-dem-rep-lawmakers-learned-significantly-more-about-surveillance-programs-in-nsa-briefing of the past, BHO is gonna lose the perch he now has. The only question in my mind is will the evolution card prevent the tarnishment of his legacy over this in the minds of many.

In his quest for complete safety, Snowden had the right idea
assuming they can find solutions to the prison rape and violence problems.
If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking... is freedom.

What similarities do the SS/chained CPI and the NSA story have in common?
I'd say most of them are to be found in the reactions to them -- outrage running headlong into denials, kinda like that proverbial irresistable force meeting the immovable object.
I suspect the outcome will likely be the same as well in terms of this debate. The irresistable force, fueled by reality, will move what was once thought to be immovable, and here's why.
and because there's no reason to be dishonest or to even attempt to mislead unless one has something to hide.
Mr. Wyden and Mr. Udall have for months been raising concerns that the government has secretly interpreted a part of the Patriot Act in a way that they portray as twisted, allowing the Federal Bureau of Investigation to conduct some kind of unspecified domestic surveillance that they say does not dovetail with a plain reading of the statute.http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/22/us/politics/justice-dept-is-accused-of-misleading-public-on-patriot-act.html?_r=0
The issue being debated here is whether a legal/constitutional, and otherwise proper balance has been struck between civil liberties and national security, and given that the latter is the higher priority for BHO, it occurs to me that lines being crossed or smudged a tad from being stepped/slipped on (accidently of course) is likely as a result. And even if that is not the case, that hardly makes the policy desirable to many anyway, and is no doubt likely what is being hidden. The only thing I haven't figured out yet is where all this "this is nothing new" stuff is coming from. Maybe Jameel has it all wrong,
But even in the unlikely case that the government never eavesdrops on the wrong people, the cost to civil liberties is still too high. The tiny chance of a useful match cannot justify collecting everyones phone records, or running searches on millions of e-mail messages and Internet chats.http://takingnote.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/06/07/whats-the-purpose-of-the-n-s-a-surveillance-program/
it does seem to be a bit odd that they'd be going after a whistleblower that simply shared common knowledge too.
As I understand it, BHO welcomes this debate, and he will likely be compelled in the days and weeks to come, to give us that oppose this stuff much the same bizness
Relying incessantly on drone strikes and other means to kill whomever the U.S. government decides are terrorists and their associated forces is endless war by other means. The presidents speech was less about a real shift and more about indefinitely extended hostilities framed in a way that normalizes and institutionalizes them.
but have no fear -- only those with something to hide need fear the ride from big brother. One can quibble about the source, question asked, etc, but there it is http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/general_politics/june_2013/59_oppose_government_s_secret_collecting_of_phone_records It would appear that the public opinion is not moving in the desired direction for some.
Here's to hoping that the continuation of these policies becomes as popular as chained CPI did -- people rejecting it in sufficient numbers over what it is they're losing for what it is they're getting for the loss. That would be austerity and a compelled sense of compliance respectively. Seniors didn't vote for or ask to have their checks cut, much as many of us didn't vote for or ask to have our lives recorded.
Meanwhile the cries to "Hang all Snowedmen" will contininue, which was kinda the sentiment many held for those who wrote/spoke the heresy that BHO intended to put chained CPI on the table.

Close didn't count for the Regina Pats on Tuesday night.

There's something very special about Gotland. It might be the light, the beaches and the ever present sea. The fact that the island is one of the sunniest places in Sweden – even in November – certainly helps. Or it could be the cultural heritage, the history you can see and feel everywhere. Or the people: down-to-earth, hospitable folk who make the most of life. Perhaps it's the bustling street life in the walled city of Visby. Or is it the scenery, the open and inviting landscape? You're welcome to discover and explore this one-of-a-kind island, or to rest. The distances here are never far – between north and south, east and west, city and country… and between people.

Cool, colorful Kona Ice gives back
New Hampshire Dance Institute summer camp attendees, at Marlborough School this month, dance to the Calypso music of the Kona Ice truck for franchise owner Sharon Sweeney. (MEGHAN PIERCE/Union Leader Correspondent)
On a recent warm summer day, Sharon Sweeney had one of the business' three Kona Ice trucks parked at by the Marlborough School playground with a long line of children that kept her serving shaved ice for her entire hourlong visit to the New Hampshire Dance Institute summer camp at the elementary school.
A visit from Kona Ice is marked by the steel drum melodies of Calypso music, the colorful characters on the truck, including Kona the Penguin, and the Flavorwave, which allows patrons to help themselves to Kona Ice's top 10 flavors.
"It's gone back into our scholarships. It's gone into some of the expenses we have in running the camp or the event we have in May," Leach said. "I think the neatest part of the story is that there is actually a business that is financially benefiting from being there and then turning back around and giving you a check back. … And it's just happiness, happiness and fun."
The Surry couple had long been in business for themselves when in 2008 the economic crash made their business as event equipment lease brokers frustratingly difficult, Sharon Sweeney said.
"Every time he came up with one of these hair-brained online things, I'd look at him and say, 'Are you crazy?'"
Even when he discovered a new franchise opportunity with a shaved ice truck business based out of Florence, Ky., Sharon was skeptical.
But after Jim did his homework on the franchise, the couple decided it could work and that they needed the change of pace.
"We were just looking for something totally different and fun and exciting," Sweeney said.
Each franchise chooses how much it wants to give back, but like the Sweeneys, Kona franchise's usually give back 25 percent of its profits at a fundraising event, she said.
At almost every stop, they give back revenue to the group that invited them, school fairs, baseball leagues, church events, corporate outings, even weddings.
Shaved ice originated in Hawaii, where it is known as shave ice, she said.
In other parts of the county, it is known as Hawaiian or tropical shaved ice, and in some parts of the South, it is known as snowballs.
"You can put on any flavor you want. You can mix and match. It just adds to the experience," Sweeney said of Flavorwave.
The Sweeneys were the first to bring Kona Ice to New Hampshire; now there are three other Kona Ice franchises in the state, she said.New Hampshire has the distinction of having the most Kona trucks per capita, Sweeney said.
"I think he fell off of his chair when we were at the end of our second season, and we had to order a second truck," she said.
"What we say is we work very hard for six months, and we don't work hard for six months," Sweeney said.
Their initial investment was just over $90,000 to start the franchise, she said. In five years, the franchise has expanded to three trucks, hired two employees, covers the Route 9 area from Concord into Brattleboro, Vt., and most importantly has given back $50,000 to the community they serve.
The Sweeneys can be contacted at email@example.com.

Greetings all - new member/short term lurker here.
Had my 335i M Sport Touring for a month or so now (Black, 56 plate for those that are interested) and have to say I'm loving it. Switched from an RS6 to the BM. BM is by far a better drive (RS6 engine is an awesome thing but you just felt a bit too detached from the driving experience - that and the fact that it has suspension made from chocolate with a fondant filling. Seriously, whole lot replaced three times in 18 months due to failures
Anyway - am planning a copuple of mods as and when finances allow and will be purely focused on performance rather than looks. Will be needing tyres before too long and have been reading the run flat vs Non run flat stuff with interest - still undecided though!
Have found the forum an interesting mix of useful info / amusing reads / questionable threads so far so thanks, thanks and wtf?!!

Meanwhile, her sister Becky tries to free her from his evil clutches, and this time, she has brought some help.

Originally written on Fox Sports Detroit | Last updated 10/29/14
DETROIT -- Brayan Villarreal could be back as soon as Tuesday and Andy Dirks is getting closer. Villarreal, who did not pitch in the three-game series in Baltimore because of a neck injury, was to see a neck specialist sometime before Monday's game. "I feel much better than yesterday," Villarreal said. "I think I'll be ready tomorrow, that's what I think. That's what I feel, but we gotta see the doctor, see what he say." Villarreal said he first felt a pinch in his neck upon awakening Friday. "I start feeling bad and I let them know I can't pitch like that," Villarreal said. "Then I tried to just warm up and I felt like it still hurt." As for Dirks, who has been on the disabled list since May 31 with right Achilles tendinitis, joined the team after spending the All-Star break working in Florida. Monday he was showing the trainers his progress. "We went out, we did some agilities and stuff, everything felt good," Dirks said. "I went down to Florida for a week, worked down there, and it's showing signs of good improvement. "I'm moving around pretty good. I can run on it pretty good, hitting's fine. Now it's just got to get to the point where I can go full-bore baseball activities and then look to do some kind of rehab playing, wherever it is, wherever they want me to go." Dirks said he started running during the break and then increased his workload because he felt fine. "I could actually run on it pretty good after we gave it that time of rest and stuff," Dirks said. "That's the most I've done. Every day it was feeling better, feeling better, feeling better. "So we keep increasing the intensity of the workouts and stuff and try to get to where I can do everything full-speed without any problems, without thinking about it or anything." Manager Jim Leyland still isn't counting on having Dirks back in the near future. "The good news for me is when hes ready to play for the Detroit Tigers, which wont be for quite a while," Leyland said. "Because hes going to have to go out and get several at-bats hes been out two months, six weeks plus. "Hes going to have to go out and get at-bats, and it wont just be three or four days of at-bats. Thats still a process." Dirks said the ideal situation for him would be to head out on a rehab assignment during the current home stand. As for how long he'll need, he's leaving that up to others. "For me, if I go out and feel fine, I'm ready to play," Dirks said. "But they know better than I do about that. I've never been on a rehab stint anywhere really. "These guys, they know how to do it. I don't know what I'm doing, I'm just a baseball player." Castellanos call-up would surprise Leyland There's been a lot of speculation about possible trades the Tigers might make before the July 31 non-waiver deadline. Nick Castellanos, currently with Double-A Erie, is mentioned in nearly all trade speculation. Originally projected to be a third baseman, Castellanos has been playing some in right field. But Leyland doesn't expect Castellanos to be ready to join the Tigers anytime soon "That would be probably a surprise to me," Leyland said. "Thats an awful big jump. Particularly now that hes playing the outfield. But hes one of those special guys. "I wouldnt put anything past him. Right now, that would be on the back burner for me." The Tigers invited Castellanos to spring training and he did offseason hitting with Miguel Cabrera and Alex Avila, so he could be a September call-up when rosters expand.

Bruce Purkey knows where the electrons go. And, as president of Purkey's Fleet Electric and his many activities in the Technology & Maintenance Council of the American Trucking Associations, he's well aware that some of them flow to batteries that support the electric-over-hydraulic systems for liftgates on trucks and trailers. Usually there are two and as many as four Group 31 batteries, like the ones on a truck or tractor.
April 25, 2014
We have to stop thinking of our start/charge systems as simply a handful of separate components, and start viewing them as a system. From alternators to batteries and starters, cables and regulators, and even add-on components like low-voltage cut-off switches and DC/AV inverters, each can impact the component next to it.

The 2014 NCAA tournament has been a compelling one so far.
Between 14th-seeded Mercer shocking third-seeded Duke on Friday, the four 12 seeds very nearly completing a sweep of the five seeds, half of the four 11 seeds picking up wins over six seeds and a bunch of extra time being played, this year's tournament has certainly provided its share of intrigue and excitement.
But while the 2014 tournament placed one quarter (seven of 28) of its double-digit seeds in the round of 32, that number was a bit less than in several other years, since the men's tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985, to 65 teams in 2001 and to 68 teams in 2011.
In 1989, all four 11 seeds won, marking the only time since 1985 that each of the same double-digit seed — lower than a 10 seed — won (four 10 seeds won in 1999).
Those four 11-seed winners in '89 were half of the eight double-digit seeds that won that year.
After that tournament, there were eight others (1991, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2006, 2009, 2010, 2013) in which just as many double-digit seeds played for a trip to the Sweet 16.
And in 2012, that number was eclipsed, when nine double-digit seeds (two 10s, two 11s, two 12s, a pair of 15s and a 13) reached the round of 32.
The 2002 tournament matched this year's with seven double-digit seeds advancing beyond the round of 64.
This year's three 12 seeds winning also wasn't so far out of the ordinary compared to recent years. The same happened just last year, and before that, in 2002 and '09.

"No, but I wish, because that would be hilarious. That would be the weirdest couple in the world. It would be like the apocalypse. I think it's because we're both kind of extreme. We represent extremes, in opposite directions. So for us two to come together, it would be a very strange meeting of the minds or colliding of two worlds. I haven't watched that many episodes, but of the ones I have… if I were to pick one of the dudes on the show, I'd definitely pick him."

The Good, The Bad & The Meh At The 2011 Golden Globe Awards
I think we can all agree on something — Ricky Gervais needs to host every award show ever going forward starting now. His jokes were so rude and unafraid and hilarious, they actually made watching a room full of people dying to celebrate themselves — and having to put up with being made fun of — enjoyable. For a second there I thought the Scientologists had called in a favor and gotten Gervais removed from the auditorium — luckily, he seems to have survived the night.
Anyway, let's get on to the second best part of the evening — the clothes! The stars turned out in a variety of different trends — deep, emerald green gowns (Angelina Jolie, Mila Kunis, Catherine Zeta-Jones), shower curtain-inspired bridal wear (Jennifer Lopez, Michelle Williams, Jennifer Love Hewitt), flamin' hot Cheeto red (January Jones, Christina Hendricks, Edie Falco), and sorbet pinks and peaches (Claire Danes, Lea Michele, Emma Stone). There were some daring knockouts and a few total flops — who were your picks for Good, Bad, and Meh?
For The Week Of January 17-23, 2011
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Stress is going to be piling up and driving out the nymphomaniac in you, as the only way to alleviate yourself of the pressure is to let it out in an obvious way. The good news is the universe will be on your side, making this one orgasmic week to take advantage of, as brilliant ideas will come when your back is up against a wall (or bed).
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
Forget the good girl routine, because you know once the doors close the freak in you can work it out in ways no one would ever suspect. This week, time to pull those shades down tighter, because your animal instincts will be sharper than ever and it's time to take your flirtations to the next level — and yes, you will deserve everything coming to you.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Remember, it's always darkest before the dawn. So, don't get too comfy with major decisions you've made as of late, as there are still a few hurdles that can aggravate. Seems the next round of info you learn may strike at you emotionally and logic won't be readily available to help quell the anxiety. No matter, nothing is ever perfect, but know ultimately the ball is still in your court.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
No matter how things are playing out, if you want it to work in your favor, start playing the friendship card. Yes, hard to hear for a horny devil such as yourself, but this week, showing off your intellect will be your sex magnet. However, this isn't the time when your iron will be at its hottest, it's more about heating things up — so bide your time, as this week it's about the tease.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Why move a muscle, when you can get someone else to do it? Yes, work your power of persuasion now, as you are best at indulging in luxuries this week. Realize you've put in the hard work and now is time to reap the rewards. Besides all that, love is nothing unless you know someone truly knows how to give; this week, it's time to test out who's in and who's out.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Getting pushy is going to be a little necessary to move your agenda along. It seems the scattered energy in the air will be a tad bit frustrating, but since you have vision, it won't be hard to grab the attention of whomever you want. However, pace yourself. Rome wasn't built in a day and although you can make great strides, the destination is still a bit of a ways away.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Your brain may start to go haywire, as ideas that pop into your head may make you wonder if you're going nuts. You aren't; you just need to clean out space in your mind to head clearly into the future. Yes, odd things and ideas will be filling your mind, but considering it's a lifetime load, all you can do is laugh and move it on.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
Bossy friends are going to be giving you all sorts of suggestions that may sound condescending or just crazy. Sure, there may be some baggage attached to some offers, but who cares? If it is going to get you from point A to point B, then just do it. Now is not the time to stall and try to consider what to do next. Just keep up the momentum, taking each opportunity and chalking it all up as an adventure.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Eloquence will matter now; so don't stop to edit yourself. Just say how you feel, as it will come out poetically and effectively. Of course, if this means glossing over some truths for the greater good, do it. Yes, it may hurt initially, but in the long run, you will win out. As it stands now, if you bend these small rules, then the finish line will be in sight.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
The world is about to become a smaller place. This might mean literally meeting someone from another culture that will seriously float your boat or getting an opportunity to fly away, passport in hand, or even just having an epiphany that awakens a deep truth in you that will be changing up your philosophies towards life. Whatever it may be, amazing surprises are in store!
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
