Palladium Emissions in the Environment
Analytical Methods, Environmental Assessment and Health Effects
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
To date the investigations of metal emissions from automotive catalysts has focussed mainly on platinum. Since 1993, however, platinum has been increasingly replaced by palladium as the predominant substance in pollution-control catalysts. Now the release of palladium in automotive catalysts is becoming just a critical problem as that of platinum. The editors present the latest research results related to all aspects of palladium emissions in the environment, as well as an assessement of their effects on the environment and health. The book focuses on the following topics: analytical methods; sources of palladium emissions; occurrence, chemical behaviour and fate in the environment; bioavailability and biomonitoring; and health-risk potential.

I could make a home in the warmth of his arms,
my cheek pressed to his chest,
his pulse penetrating my ear,
breathing echoing in the small space.
The blue pools of his eyes could redefine the sky.
My ribcage could be occupied by his fingers
and we could be happy.
Sometimes I wonder if he was born
with those electric fibers perfectly spread across his jaw
and that tired, intelligent shadow
beneath his eyelashes.
It was the swift eyebrow raises that got me.
It was the tiny smirks from across the room,
the glances,
the suggestion.
We were shoulders brushing,
eyes nestled on one another,
lowered voices,
We were dangerous.

One of Scorcese's more underrated films- mainly because it takes an unflinching and brutally honest look at the entertainment industry, and it's golem-like appendage called " fame ". DeNiro gives one of his more subtle performances- all the more amazing as he was reputedly doing a lot of narcotics at the time. Jerry Lewis basically doesn't act in the film- what you see is basically what you get in real life.
One thing I love about comedies is when directors cast the funniest actor in the film, as a very strict, no nonsense, and humorless grump, that's what Martin Scorsesse did with Jerry Lewis in this film. When I first watched this movie, I really didn't know what to think of it. Robert De Niro plays a strugling comedian named Rupert Pupkin, whose obsession with late night televsion host, Jerry Langford (Lewis), drives him to extremes when he kidnappes him in order to get on his television show. There is some pretty dark stuff in this film, which I suppose is what makes the impact with the viewer. It's one of the only Martin Scorsesse pictures, that I really had to think about before giving my opinion on it, and my opinion is that it is a very good movie, with a strong cast and a truly Oscar worthy performance from Jerry Lewis, seriously, you can't find talent like Jerry anymore, you just don't.
Oddball comedy with amazing director and cast.

ACCUWEATHER By Bill Deger, Meteorologist
Major flooding is expected well inland across the Northeast in the wake of Irene, with several large rivers likely to remain above flood stage for days.
All-time records could even be approached on a few rivers, rivaling stages recorded during Hurricane Floyd in 1999.
Heavy rain from Irene will continue to soak millions across the eastern mid-Atlantic through today, expanding north across New England into tonight. By early Monday, Irene's heaviest rain will have exited to the north into southeastern Canada.
Rainfall totals will continue to be excessive and impressive. Many areas from the mid-Atlantic into New England will get 3 to 6 inches of rain, with localized amounts above a foot.
Similar rainfall totals were observed on Saturday as Irene passed near eastern North Carolina and the Delmarva region.
The heavy rain is the last thing many locations across the Northeast want to see. Record rainfall has already caused flooding headaches across the region during the month of August.
While flooding along streets and in low-lying areas will be worse in the interim, river flooding will worsen in the hours and days after the rain stops falling.
This hydrograph from the Schuylkill River near Philadelphia indicates that major and near-record flooding is forecast. For a larger version, visit the AHPS website.
The Schuylkill River in southeastern Pennsylvania, the Passaic River in northern New Jersey and the Winooski River in northern New England are among the waterways that will likely experience major flooding.
Current forecasts indicate that some rivers and creeks may approach all-time records. The Perkiomen Creek near Graterford, Pa., could come within a foot of the all-time record of 18.3 feet, while the Hoosic River near Bennington, Vt., will approach the record of 12.0 feet.
While millions will experience significant flooding today, those along creeks and rivers should not hesitate to head to higher ground to escape rising floodwaters.
Roadways around and over these waterways will flood as well. Never drive through floodwaters and always heed the advice of officials and barricades.

I purchased the round monopoint canopy adaptors to use with the Model 775 track light. They worked perfectly. However, since I purchased the Model 775 lights in brushed nickel, I wish I could have also gotten the monopoint adaptors in brushed nickel finish as well. But black or white finishes were the only options available.
By:Thomas H. , Homeowner (Philadelphia, PA USA)
The only thing that I didn't like about the adapter was the cheap mounting screws that come with it. You might as well plan on buying some decent drywall screws to mount it. Other than that, it's a great product.
By:Boomhowe , Homeowner (US)
THe canopy is nice. The mouinting screws are too short for most applications and will send you to thte hardware store

Great looking single point track head mount. Use only one track light fixture to put light exactly where you want it!
By:Bruce B. , Designer (Tennessee)
This allows for a track fixture to be used in a stationary location without a track.
This is like a quality and sturdy product.
Using these in place of track will allow me to use track fixtures in several areas of my new home where a track would not work.
By:Sanford L. , Homeowner (Gig Harbor, Washington)
If you want the adjustability of a track light, but not the track, this is the device to use. It is great for accentc liighting individual items
By:Alan G. , Architect (New Canaan, CT)
Excellent product
By:Jeff C. , Homeowner (Cheboygan ,MI)
A basic compact monopoint. A good budget choice. Use a compact recessed wiring box.

The news broke late this afternoon that Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-New York), admitted that he did, in fact, send inappropriate pictures of himself and engaged in lewd conversations with at least six women he conversed with via the Internet. In a tearful press conference, Weiner confessed that he'd covered up his initial story about his Twitter being hacked when the underwear photo had leaked, and told reporters on Monday, "I then continued with that story — to stick to that story — which was a hugely regrettable mistake."
The admission, of course, set off a flurry of opinions and criticism from bloggers, website commenters, journalists, and politicians alike. But we're especially curious what Jon Stewart's musings on this revelation will be. READ FULL STORY

Positive IDs
One of my goals for this last month before "outdoor cactus season" is to ID the few remaining specimens that I don't have nailed down. I am starting with the Mammillaria genus, because it pretty much rocks my world and there are countless species and hybrids out there. I think I have found the forum to do it on:
The second goal is to get my new plant labels labeled. I picked them up while visiting family at home in Indiana over the holidays. Now, which plants get the honor? I've always wanted our backyard to look like a botanical garden, and when we found the metal plant stakes on a great discount, I finally got "approval".

But race couldn't possibly be a factor.
Lee & Low Books continues to create infographics focusing on diversity in media representation. This one focuses on the Academy Awards from 1927 to 2012. The researchers reviewed the 85 year old history of the institution and call the results "staggeringly disappointing."
Since the Academy Awards was founded 85-years ago:
- Only one woman of color (1%) has ever won the Academy Award for Best Actress
- Only six men of color (7%) have ever won the Academy Award for Best Actor
- Only one woman (1%) has ever won the Academy Award for Best Director
Check out more commentary from the researchers and an interview with filmmakers of color at their website!

basically they're boring old fucks
Also one is a nun who was in like one film with Elvis Presley forever ago
——they give 12 years a slave best film but totally shut it out of all the other categories so they can grudgingly acknowledge how good a movie it was without giving any one person too much credit—-the exception to this might be giving Michael Fassbender the supporting actor award.
——Frozen will win
——JLaw will win and she will act totally surprised and flabbergasted

Planetside 2 – New Continent Hossin
Sony have announced a new continent for their popular Planetside 2 game, Hossin looks to be a high density jungle continent from the sneak preview. Hossin has large canopy cover of jungle trees making air-to-ground combat a lot more difficult if you ask me, inexperienced pilots need not apply.
Here's a video of the continent, showing off some of the features.
They have only finished 1/3 of the continent as yet and promise that it won't be a copy and paste continent like the others.
You can get more screenshots over at Ten Ton Hammer.
Lets hope Hossin isn't a lame duck

Coming late this summer or early this fall is a new Acer netbook that will be powered by Android, Google's mobile operating system. This will be the first official netbook with Android running on it. Of course, we've seen hacking of netbooks with Android in the past, showing the obvious desire to see this provided for consumers. Looks like it's finally happnening.
If you're not familiar, netbooks are mini laptops, usually ranging from 7-12 inches. Many of them run on Windows XP or Linux. Netbooks are designed for people on the go. You may notice mobile carriers such as Verizon offering broadband internet deals for netbooks. I've seen deals where you pay $99 for the netbook with a 2-year contract at about $60 a month. It's very similar to purchasing a mobile phone.
Of course, Android's first venture was on the T-mobile/Google co-branded phone, the G1, which is manufactured by HTC. T-Mobile's second Android device is expected "early this summer" according to the blogosphere. Since it is essentially early summer, might the new phone be out any day now? Details are still vague, so stay tuned.

Acumen Fund Fellows Program
Each year, the Acumen Fund Fellows Program provides extraordinary young professionals with a
Who Becomes a Fellow?
Acumen Fund Fellows are drawn from a pool of talented individuals from all geographies, sectors, backgrounds, religions, and ages. Ideal fellows include those who have already decided on a career in venture philanthropy, those who are seeking a career at the highest levels in the corporate world but want to better understand and impact problems of global poverty, and budding social entrepreneurs who want to learn about managing organizations in the most demanding settings.
The Application Process
The application process takes place each fall for the Fellows class of the following year. Applications for the Class of 2009 have closed. Fellows applying for the Class of 2010 will begin the training program in New York in September 2009 and complete the program in September 2010.
The new online application for the Fellows Class of 2010 opens on September 1, 2008 and closes at noon on October 20, 2008.
There is no specific age or degree required for the program. However, we are seeking individuals with 3-7 years of work experience and would prefer a graduate degree.
Acumen Fund seeks Fellows who will bring diverse backgrounds, training and experience for a dynamic team environment. We welcome applicants of any nationality, and are prepared to do everything within our power to address visa and immigration needs to ensure that we can include the most promising future leaders. There may be situations that prevent us from completing these arrangements in time for the start of the program, in which case we will work out the best course of action with the candidate in question. The sooner we receive information about a potential Fellow's visa or immigration status, the more time we will have to ensure that everything is handled before the beginning of the program.

This 27" wall oven fits perfectly in our small kitchen. We replaced our old 24" double wall ovens with this microwave and oven combo wall unit and couldn't be happier. I now can fit a regular sized cookie sheet in the oven, In fact, there's enough vertical room in the oven to use 2 cookie sheets simultaneously with enough space between the racks to give good airflow around the cookie sheets. Cookies and breads come out beautiful, though I do use a pizza stone at the bottom of the oven to guarantee even baking. The oven takes a while to heat up and the fan is a bit noisy, similar to a standard-size wall oven. The microwave works great and the stainless interior gives a professional look. I have had a bit of trouble with the touch pad controls not working, causing me to re-enter my desired program before it would start. Electronic pads seem to be a weak point with modern appliances. All-in-all I'm very happy with the new purchase.

Overall, the oven/ microwave combo works well. The one overriding failure is the oven fan. If it was only blowing air, it wouldn't be bad -even in our open area kitchen/great room layout. But it whistles and whines and is piercing to the point of distraction. I feel as though I just spent a couple of grand on a loser.. A brand new kitchen and a noisemaker. It would be great but it just too noisy.

Great features
By Teressa

I bought my oven microwave combo several months ago and I am very pleased with it. It is easy to operate and looks great. It looks like a double oven but with microwave. I now. Have all whirlpool appliances.

Loving it!
By Abkfloyd
from North Little Rock, AR, United States
I bought this as an update to my kitchen 3 weeks ago. It replaced a GE microwave/oven wall unit that was 20 years old. I love not only the sleek appearance of the Whirlpool unit, but it's functionality. The only thing I would change is to add a timer feature that would allow me to use seconds. It has an hours/minutes feature, but that's all. I used the timer feature all the time in my former appliance, ESP for managing multiple cooking times.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Very nice looking unit
By dtkfw
from Dallas, TX, United States
This is a new unit that replaced a 28 yr old Hotpoint wall oven/microwave that actually still worked and had caused no repairs in the last 18 years. It was part of an update to stainless for the kitchen. So far it is working fine, but cannot comment on the quality due to the short time that it has been used. The only negative is that the oven fan is quite loud pre-heating, cooking, and during the cool-down period after turning the oven off.
By ms606
from Ohio, United States
So far all features work well and I am very pleased with its appearance. Two suggestions: 1). Microwave fan stays on after completing cooking and must be turned off. 2). Why must all appliances be different sizes? When replacing an older model, extensive cabinetry work many times needs done.
Nice Unit
By Tjay
from Undisclosed
I got this two in one micro and oven. It looks very nice. The oven seems to be pretty evenly heated. The microwave is annoying because the fan continues to run after it's done heating. Sometimes I will put my coffee in there to reheat but go to do other things. I don't want it "running" the whole time. It's also not very easy to select times and such since it's one control for the two units.
Looks Fab!
By Kimberly5
from Texas, United States
I bought this 2 months ago. I havent had an oven in over 5 yrs. This is a beautiful piece. i just wish it heated more quickly and the microwave was quieter.

Although his team is 4-1 and ranked fourteenth in the country, South Carolina Gamecocks head coach Steve Spurrier is displeased with his team's lack of of effort in at the end of games. The Gamecocks have given up an unacceptable 51 fourth-quarter points over their past three games, allowing inferior opponents to mount late comebacks. It's a trend that can't continue if the Gamecocks hope to content for an SEC title.
Spurrier, who said there would be some changes to the defensive personnel this week, spoke about the problem during a teleconference on Sunday:
I don't know if we can change it or not. We're coaching our tails off as hard as we can. I just don't know if we can change it or not.
We're still winning, so that makes it not as tough. We don't like it, but if that's who we are, that's the kind of team we're going to be all year, it looks like. We're going to try and change it, though (The Post and Courier).
Man, if only the Gamecocks had a superhuman defensive player known for his relentless effort…

This is a seasonal nude. As soon as Summer changed me to a Nc30-35 I fell in love with this color. It's luxurious on and has just the right amount of creamy shine. Wish it lasted longer on lips. Wasn't crazy with this on my nc20-25 skin but I'm glad I waited it out. I keep reaching for it over others.
Nice color, peachy nude, perfect for summer, tanned skin tones. However, I dislike the formula.
I was so happy when MAC expanded on the Creamsheen formula! Its one of my favorite finishes. Great pigment, super creamy lipstick with good staying power. Pure Zen is one of my favorites of the new expansion, and just one of my favorite nudes in general. Pure Zen is the perfect peachy pink nude that doesn't wash me out, or make my lips disappear. I hate the concealer nude look, I want a soft, natural nude lip and this shade delivers! When I worked I MAC I tried this on a variety of skin colors from very light to very dark. Due to this being semi-sheer and allowing your natural lip color to show though, it looks good on a lot of people. More so on those with cooler skin tones than warm. I feel like the pinky in it if you already have pinker skin, may be too close to your skin and wash you out. Again, this is just my opinion, but it seems to work better on people with olive, yellow or neutral under tones. I like to pair it with Stauchly Stylish lip liner and Ample Pink plushglass for a beautiful, everyday nude lip.

Went into the Mac store knowing I wanted a peachy nude color.. But didn't know which one! I tried on SO many and felt this one was the perfect mixture of peachy pink and nude. For anyone looking for something along those lines.. I really do recommend this! I think this is a lipstick you can't go wrong with. :-)

Gorgeous shade in an imperfect formula.
6 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Given my love for nude lipsticks, I had to pick this one up for my collection. The formula of Pure Zen is fabulous. This is a nice peachy nude & suits my NC40 skintone nicely. The color payoff is fantastic and it's perfect to pair with a smokey eye. While the color isn't really unique, it's definitely one I'm glad to have.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Finally found the best nudey-pink lipstick shade. It is pigmented enough to cover my very red lips, but without making me look like I have no colour at all. Beautiful!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I thought that this lipstick from mac would be the perfect nude for my skin tone. It is a crème sheen formula and it was my first purchase from mac along with relentlessly red. The sales associate at mac told me that Pure Zen would look good on me because it has a warmer tone and would not wash me out and "erase" my lips. I didn't try it on at the mac shop but I just trusted the lady. It is a nice nude color, don't get me wrong. But I don't think that I like the crème sheen formula. That is what it comes down to. It settles weird on my lips and the color bunches up. But the color is definitely a beautiful shade. I like it, but I don't think I will re-purchase.
I bought this is when it was part of the Marilyn Monroe collection only because I liked the packaging... and it seemed to be the only color of that collection that I really liked. "Pl!nk" is normally my HG of MAC lipsticks... I use it everyday. Pure Zen is very pretty- a soft, opaque, nude peach. But I do feel it dries my lips a bit. But I really like the color! I just have to make sure i have my chapstick with me. I don't feel it lasts as long as other shades, but the color is so great I will continue to purchase.

Chevron EAGLES FOR EDUCATION: Round 3 Update from the Northern Trust Open
February 19, 2012
Chevron's EAGLES FOR EDUCATION initiative will donate $2,500 for every eagle scored during the Northern Trust Open. Each eagle will support 350 students through the Los Angeles Junior Chamber of Commerce and The First Tee. Chevron's goal is to raise $100,000 over the course of the week. In addition to the funding provided, Chevron is also hosting more than 500 Los Angeles area students to the "STEM Zone" - a customized hospitality area dedicated to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. Through the third round, 21 eagles were recorded, which earns a donation of $52,500 to the EAGLES FOR EDUCATION initiative.

Sometimes, he dreams that he is running.
It starts as a step.
Just one, like he's afraid of it, like he thinks maybe if he takes too many he won't be able to any longer. Just one, like he doesn't remember how, like he can't make his legs work, but he can — he can.
It starts as a step and it turns into three.
It starts as a step and it turns into ten.
It starts as a step and it turns into twenty.
It starts as a step and then he is
Running and running and his lungs burn as the air catches in them, a sharp sting with every breath but he doesn't care because there is gravel crunching beneath his feet and sunlight on his face and his heart is beating a study ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum in his chest, hammering against skin stretched tight as a drum.
Running and running and everything seems b r i g h t e r
because how long has he wanted t h i s ?
(More than anything and sometimes he can't quite feel guilty for that bit of selfishness.)
Running and running and when he stops he bends at the waist, hands splayed against his knees and heart still galloping, and laughs so hard he cries.
(laughs because he wants it
because he can't have it
because it is impossible
and yet —
he can't let it go.)
And then he wakes up.
And then he can't run anymore.
And then he remembers.
And then he swallows disappointment and anger at himself because why does he continue to h o p e ?
He shouldn't.
(But sometimes, he wishes he could.)

Sprinter Isles commits to rugby with Glasgow
Carlin Isles, the American sprinter who made his name in rugby on the HSBC Sevens World Series, has signed for the Glasgow Warriors, ending speculation that he was bound for the NFL.
The 24-year-old former track athlete made his international debut for the Eagles Sevens team on the Gold Coast in October 2012 and has since been dubbed the 'fastest rugby player in the world', scoring 27 tries in 14 international sevens tournaments.
Having signed a practice contract with the Detroit Lions NFL franchise, he has now committed to Rugby and a stadium which he already knows, having also played in Glasgow on the World Series.
"I can't wait to fly over to Glasgow and join up with my new teammates. Everything has happened so quickly for me over the last couple of years and I'm just happy to be playing rugby and getting the opportunity to play at the highest level," said Isles, who may still turn out for the Eagles Sevens side.
"It's very exciting to be moving to the 15-a-side game. It's a lot different to Sevens but I want to work hard and do everything I can to succeed.
"I've been in contact with Gregor (Townsend) a few times and knowing he really wants me and sees something in me means a lot and was a big factor in deciding to join the club."
Townsend: A major coup
"This is a major coup for the club and a very exciting prospect," said former Scotland international Townsend, who is now in charge at Glasgow. "Carlin is an exceptionally gifted athlete, who has picked up the game of rugby in a very short period of time and has had a huge impact on the sevens circuit over the last couple of years.
"He is really eager to learn and develop as a winger in the fifteen-a-side game. With his lightning pace and evasion skills, he already has an excellent base to challenge for a starting place until the end of the season. I can't wait to get him over here to learn the 15s game, but there may also be an opportunity for him to play at the Melrose Sevens in April, after we were invited to play in the tournament for the first time.
"We have a few injuries in our backline, with DTH van der Merwe out for the rest of the season and Sean Maitland currently on the sidelines, so it's great that we're able to strengthen our squad at this time and I'm sure he'll fit in really well at Scotstoun."

Best/realest tweets of the fortnight, 1/13-1/26/13
Mitt Romney wakes at 5 AM underneath navy blue billion-thread count sheets at a hotel that costs more per night than the average American family's car. He rises, wandering downstairs to the hotel's breakfast banquet in search of something to nibble on to curb the aching hunger for power in his belly when he spots a pristine, silver receptacle with the words "French Roast" engraved proudly on its side. Romney snatches it, tipping about two tablespoons of the devil's liquid into a white China mug. He looks around for spies before downing the scalding, sinful concoction in one gulp. Five minutes later, overcome with guilt, Romney finds himself with his fingers down his throat in the hotel lobby's men's room, vomiting the vile potion into the sink. Looking up into the mirror, Romney finds he doesn't recognize the man he's become, and sobs.
It's 10 AM and Mitt Romney feels dirty. He can still smell the sweat that oozed from his pores 12 hours prior like lava leaking down a cold, unchanging rock face. He opens his portable safe (patent pending) and removes $100,000 in cash, carefully laying each sheet on the bottom of his suite's claw-foot porcelain tub before turning on the hot water. Mitt strips off his temple garment and adds his secret bath potion—the tears of Wisconsin union workers given to him by Paul Ryan as a special gift—to the water before slowly lowering his body into the steaming green sea.
Mitt Romney decides a lunch with his sweetheart is the only remedy for his abysmally low spirits, and orders a spread up on the hotel's veranda that rivals Rosie O'Donnell's thanksgiving feast. After biting into a delectable foie gras made from the youngest, cutest geese in France, Mitt puts his hand on Ann's thigh and leans in to nuzzle his nose against her cold, eggshell cartilage. "Only winners deserve eskimo kisses, Willard," she says before removing his hand from her appendage and turning away. The Romneys dive into the second argument they've ever had, in which Ann calls him a "nancyboy."
Still reeling from his smackdown with Ann, Mitt Romney opens his Dell laptop at 4 PM to compose a letter he'll display on the front page of his website. His fingers punish the silver keys as he outlines every last detail of his plan to create 12 million jobs if the people of America hadn't been so freaking stupid to not elect him without any specifics. He finishes off his erratic rant with the signoff "SEE you miserable cock suckers on medicare? SEE you unemployed single bitches living off social security? SEE? I WAS RIGHT!!!" Mitt hits post, then hurls his computer out the hotel window before crumpling into a puddle on the floor, once again returning to the solace only weeping can bring.
By 7 PM, Mitt Romney charges into a private study in his hotel fortress and barks at the nearest butler to bring him a glass of warm milk. One-percent in hand, he reaches into his back pocket for his "little black book," which contains the names of all his classmates at the Crankbrook School. Clutching a marble land line phone, he calls the ten students he bullied most brutally as a child and screams into the receiver, "Just so you know…you're still totally gay!" or "Your father was a small-time lawyer, now you're a small-time lawyer, and you'll die a small-time lawyer!" and finally, "My birthday party was fancier than all the birthday parties, and you're going to take that to your grave, you cheap bastard!" Mitt hangs up the final call and turns his attention to his new, custom-made dart board: a map of the U.S. with states highlighted in red and blue based on last night's results. He screams in agony when he accidentally hits only red states, sits down in a massive leather wingback, and cries softly into his now lukewarm milk.

Looks like Mitt Romney is getting precisely what he's paying for with Facebook's social ads.
Best/realest tweets of the three-week period 10/14-11/3/12
When Mitt Romney's now-infamous "47%" comments were made public, the Republican presidential nominee first said they were "not elegantly stated" and later went further, saying they were "just completely wrong." The general sentiment behind them, though, underlies Romney's entire campaign and is still pleasing his supporters: the idea that vast numbers of Americans vote Democratic because they've come to take government for granted, because they want a big government that will coddle them instead of a small government that will force them to actually work for their daily bread.
I wonder, though, whether it's not actually Republican voters who are the ones taking government for granted.
Certainly there's a substantial portion of the Republican base who understand the implications of the GOP's tax-slashing policy and welcome its outcome. There are the libertarian types who have their loaded guns and are ready for an unregulated Mad Max world, and there are the wealthy voters who would prefer to spend their money on private schools and private security forces and private parks for themselves and their children rather than funding public schools and public police forces and public parks for everyone.
Then, though, there are the millions and millions of Republican voters like the people I went to high school with, working-class and middle-class voters who tend to agree with Republicans on social issues and have been convinced that they agree with the GOP on economic issues as well. It's these voters who I believe are the ones really taking government for granted in this election-year debate.
One of my high school classmates, for example, recently posted a Facebook status complaining about her family's rising health insurance premiums, blaming them on the large numbers of uninsured people who her insurance company is telling her she's footing the bill for. Arguing that Obamacare is only going to make her premiums go up, she said she hopes the President doesn't get a second term. When I pointed out that Obama's plan is specifically designed to reduce the number of uninsured, she shot back that she doesn't like the idea of being forced to buy anything—such as health insurance—when her family is already struggling.
While I sympathize with my classmate's tight economic situation, I was left thinking of Larry David in the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode where Larry argues with his doctor to change a waiting-room policy that's inconvenient for Larry, then later in the episode argues that the doctor should change it back when it's no longer convenient for him. "Apparently," a nurse says, "it's not about the policy at all. It's more just about you going first." That's exactly what it's about, Larry is honest enough to answer.
This is the group of voters who applaud when Romney promises to get the government out of their way—to cut regulations, and to cut taxes. This is the "We Built It" voter who imagines every cent of tax money being deposited straight in the bank account of an lazy unemployed guy who lies in his easy chair, chuckling about the wonderful folly of a system that picks the pockets of hardworking Americans to provide him with food, shelter, and health care.
Who's the one taking government for granted, though? It's not the unemployed voter who is in reality finding—unemployed people, back me up on this one—health care, food, and shelter not so easy to come by. It's those hardworking Republican voters who seem to see right through all the ways government is using their taxes very well right under their noses every day.
There's Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security, of course—the big federal programs—but there are also industry subsidies and building programs such as those funded by Obama's stimulus package. Then there are the state and local programs that are feeling the squeeze of reduced federal funding: highway construction and schools and fire departments and public defenders and police officers. It's mayors and governors who take the heat for cuts to those programs; sometimes that's justified, but often local officials' hands are tied by the federal subsidy reductions resulting from all those tax cuts my high school classmates are so enthusiastically calling for.
This isn't just a subjective impression: it's a plain fact that red states are more likely than blue states to get more in federal expenditures than they pay in taxes. Per capita, federal aid to Republican and Democratic voters is closely comparable. When Republicans vote to reduce the size of the government against the wishes of Democrats, I wonder whether people like my high school classmates really understand that it's truly a matter of "this will hurt you even more than it hurts me."
One of my classmates, at least, does understand that. Like me, from age five to age 18 he attended schools where we were taught to be single-issue voters, rejecting any pro-choice candidate no matter what the other issues at stake were. Now, though, he's considering running for state office as a Democrat. Why? His views on abortion haven't changed: he's still pro-life. What's changed is his understanding of what Republican administrations have done to our government at every level.
My friend is an attorney working in the county court systems, helping children and other vulnerable individuals who enter those courts with little money or understanding of the law as it concerns themselves. He also volunteers as a firefighter. He's the kind of real American hero Mitt Romney or George W. Bush would love a good photo op with, but he's seen up close what the policies of the Bush Administration—policies a Romney Administration would return to—have done. They've left courts overburdened and children vulnerable. They've made it hard for towns to afford the firefighting equipment they need to keep families safe. My friend is a devout Christian, but he doesn't see much Christian love for one's neighbor in Republican pledges to reduce the size of government no matter what.
Are Romney voters aware of this Faustian bargain they're making with a man who promises to get out of their way? If he's as good as his word, my high school classmates may find that the day will come when they lose their jobs and there are no unemployment benefits; when their children go to court and there's no one to defend them; when their house is burning and the town's only fire truck is busy. True to his word, Mitt Romney will be far, far out of their way.

Act 1
Young Mitt Romney, or "The Mitt" to friends and family, stands aboard a speedboat zipping into the blood-orange, half-circle setting sun on the western horizon. Miami is in the distance. The wind blows his hair back (but not too back). There are two other passengers: Chip, his stockbroker buddy in Bermuda shorts and expensive shades (Chip has nothing of relevance to say…ever) and a woman—not his wife—blonde, beautiful, straddling a fruit basket in the boat's front seat. The year is 1981. The Mitt is young (single), rich, handsome in a Northeast-prep school sorta way, and appears confident, as if God himself had just whispered into Mitt's ears when no one was looking: "you've fucking got this, Mitt." A cigar is in his pocket, too. Purely decorative.
Chip (C): Why ya even bother with it, Mitt?
The Mitt (M): Aww, come on, Chip! The first million by 30. The second million on the cab ride home from the first, huh?
C: I just don't want to see you, ya know, waste this. (Chip gestures to the open water. He then swigs a craft beer.)
The Blonde (B): Chip, shut up. He'll own this someday. He'll own you. Isn't that right, Mitt?
M: That might not be the only thing I'll own (He gives her oneofthoselooks).
The boat party approaches its destination, a white yacht, where a dinner party seems to be commencing.
B: Did you RSVP for me? She asks, leaning on his broad shoulders with both hands.
M: (whispering) That shouldn't be a problem. You come to expect a little more with me.
C: So I'm covered, too?
B and M together: Shut up, Chip.
read on for the bedroom scene
Every former-white-rapper knows his base: rednecks. Rednecks aren't able to actually come out and like hip-hop because Lil Wayne stickers don't look dope on a four-wheeler. But, white guys rapping next to chipped-paint barns and whiskey distilleries pass the test. And with former-super-redneck candidate Rick Perry ("these bills have too many words!") now gone from the competition, and Ron Paul a little too cerebral ("all those prep boy conservatives like him!"), Romney is the last, best hope for young rednecks everywhere who think "contraception" is either a rolled-up Wal-Mart bag or a new truck part carried at Fleet Farm.
Strippers always dance better to conservative kingpins. While I still maintain birdbrain, liberal do-gooder Don Henley's "Dirty Laundry" is the only thing I want playing on the jukebox in my fictional strip club, most male stripping fantasies involve women taking clothes off to songs that (perhaps not ironically) flaunt debauched American values. I.E., no one's taking clothing off to Cat Stevens's "Peace Train." Greed + illicit sex + polar bear rugs + hemi-powered, Slash guitar riffs are definitely the turf of Bain Capital execs.
Kid Rock's real name is Robert James "Bob" Ritchie. Have you ever met a guy with three first names who doesn't sympathize with at least a few planks of the John Birch Society platform?
Kid Rock's career is like the Mitt Romney verbal slip-up personified. If Mitt's not winning over "everyman" credentials by saying he pals around with guys who OWN NASCAR teams or betting hamburger flippers $10,000 they can get the grease off their company-issue khakis with his new stain-away product, he's sending out press releases apologizing for verbal misfires. But, Kid Rock can sympathize. He's the one whose summer-hit (REMEMBER!?) "All Summer Long" did the musicology no-no of lyrically referencing "Sweet Home Alabama" while actually sampling Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London." (It's okay, though, because he appears on the album cover wearing an Alabama b-ball jersey.) And who can forget "Bawitdaba," which sounds like something that would stammer out of Romney's mouth in a presidential debate when Obama asks him why he thinks a 15% effective tax rate is "hey, whatevs!" for a guy who makes nearly twice my annual salary—EVERY DAY!

Explore Lake Como, one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, plus some stunning icons of northern Italy and Switzerland

There is no one thing or region that defines Italy. Seemingly blessed with the ideal combination of almost every desirable attribute a country could wish for: straddling almost the entire width of the Mediterranean, to the south Sicily approaches Africa whilst in the north, its lakes reflect the magnificent Alps. Between these two extremes lies a great diversity of people; of food and wines; iconic architecture; footprints of ancient and medieval civilizations and a huge variety of scenery ranging from almost desert to lofty mountains so high they appear to puncture the sky!
On this wonderfully varied tour we explore Lake Como, one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, plus some stunning icons of northern Italy and Switzerland. Described by Wordsworth as 'a treasure the earth keeps to itself', visitors have been attracted to the lake for centuries in search of relaxation, culture and inspiration. Both Verdi and Rossini worked in lakeside villas here, together with countless poets. Its atmosphere is one of an eerie, near-silence, broken only by the rhythmic lapping of gentle waves on the lake shore whilst above, birds of prey soar on the numerous thermals generated by the gentle mountain breezes. The scenery is just awesome with the mirror-like, deep blue waters reflecting the surrounding hills and snow-capped peaks dotted with tall, typically Italian, ochre and magenta coloured buildings and opulent villas lining the lakeside itself. Majestic mountains rise almost vertically towards the deep blue sky with the lower slopes covered in lush vegetation, adding an invigorating aromatic backdrop to a most harmonious scene.

On the flipside, two players that need to step their game up, include two superstars, A.J. Green and Geno Atkins.
Yes, it feels weird even suggesting this, but they do need to step up. A.J. Green is going to be fine, but with missing some camp, he does appear to be a little rusty. Anyone can tell that he and Andy Dalton are not always on the same page and for a guy who is known for his sure-hands, having balls bounce off of them is also uncharacteristic.
Again, A.J. will put all the pressure on himself to be successful and will have another outstanding pro-bowl year.

Last week's floods in the Front Range of Colorado looked eerily familiar to some long-time viewers of The Weather Channel.
Over two years, The Weather Channel aired 23 episodes of the series "It Could Happen Tomorrow." Nearly two dozen doomsday scenarios were explored, ranging from catastrophic earthquakes and tsunamis to EF5 tornadoes and major hurricanes hitting big cities.
A week ago, the series' ninth episode, which originally aired on April 16, 2006, came true in Boulder, Colo.
The 30-minute piece told a tale of an elongated rain event hitting the town, leading to flash flooding, huge amounts of property damage and a massive loss of life. Fortunately, the death toll was much lower than the show predicted, but the damage was still severe. Towns were cut off for days and the price tag may top $2 billion.
(MORE: Are the Colorado Floods a Billion-Dollar Disaster?)
And though the death toll was smaller, the prolonged rain event brought many more towns into the disaster than the show predicted. News of massive flooding first came from Boulder early Wednesday morning, but over the next couple of days, other towns like Jamestown, Aurora and Lyons had flash flooding that required evacuations and water rescues.
As the event played out, the unlikelihood of such a 1,000-year flood happening left some experts in disbelief. It presented a challenge for meteorologists — give the public an accurate forecast for something that has never happened in recorded history.
"Forecasting an extreme event is something meteorologists do with extreme care," said weather.com meteorologist Jon Erdman. "Whether it's the 1993 Superstorm, Superstorm Sandy, or the April 2011 Superoutbreak, we have to balance between overwarning and missing an event being too cautious.
"That said, the large-scale pattern was certainly primed for flash flooding in Colorado, with a deep tropical moisture tap. Winds aloft up to about 15,000 feet above the ground were out of the south or southeast, helping to pin bands of rain along the Foothills and Front Range."

Then again, as a changing climate brings fears of more extreme weather, forecasters are prepared to expect the improbable.
"Two things are happening that are related to climate change," said Carl Parker, severe weather specialist at The Weather Channel. "There's more moisture in the atmosphere, as warmer temperatures increase the rate of evaporation from the oceans. Also, unusually strong high-pressure systems are developing with increasing frequency, and these systems tend to slow down the weather, thus increasing the duration of the events."
Here are a few other episodes that were nearly proven true by natural disasters that occurred after the episode aired:
- "New York City Hurricane Express" (Jan. 15, 2006) was the pilot episode of the series, which focused on the consequences of a Category 3 hurricane making a direct hit on New York City. Superstorm Sandy was not a Category 3 hurricane, but it was still a devastating post-tropical cyclone that crippled much of the Big Apple.
- "Dallas Tornado Danger" (Episode 2, Jan. 23, 2006) predicted the horrors of an EF5 tornado ripping through the Texas Metroplex, and while a tornado outbreak hit the area on April 3, 2012, none of the tornadoes in the city were stronger than EF2.
- "California Wildfires" (Episode 7, March 27, 2006) forecasts the devastation an out-of-control wildfire could do on its march to the sea. No fires have played out like that yet, but since the episode premiered, six of the 10 largest wildfires in California history have occurred, according to CBS Sacramento.
"It Could Happen Tomorrow" episodes re-air every Friday at 4 and 4:30 p.m. Eastern time.
