If you read the book "Dare You To" by Katie McGarry from Harlequin teen you will find its the opposite. Its a bad girl with a good guy. Its a great read and has a lot of what we are looking for in a book, hot romance and suspense.

Part of me doesnt like bad boys and part of me does. My intelligent smart side says their not worth it and too much trouble and my adventurous side is attracted to them. I dont know why that is but it seems true for me and some other people I know. I have friends who date bad boys and they seem seriously addicted to them, bad boys also have a tendency to get us to do bad things and that isnt always good, but sometimes it is.

I don't mind bad boys as long as they're not a "stupid and reckless" kind of bad, if that makes sense. I just don't like boys who get into trouble

honestly, i think guys act like that because the older they get the bigger their egos get as well. and their egos need to be satisfied. they think the only way they can do that is to grab attention from girls and guys by doing bad things. make sense???

Mets GM says his team out of Sheffield sweepstakes
Steve Phillips likes negotiating in public. It appears to me that it is largely a butt-covering maneuver. He isn't really interested in dealing for Sheffield or getting A-Rod etc., so he disavows any interest in getting him. I wonder if this actually reduces the heat on him or not. For me, it reduces my estimation of him.

Steve Phillips may not be the most honorable man (given the marital scandal he was involved in two years ago), but he has actually done a terrific job as the Mets' general manager. He managed to pull off the Mike Piazza deal without giving up an exorbitant amount of talent in return, signed Robin Ventura as a free agent, made the deal to acquire Mike Hampton (who helped the Mets get to the World Series), and showed some creativity in making the three-way trade with the Dodgers and O's that brought in Armando Benitez as a replacement for the overrated John Franco.2. Sam M. Posted: January 17, 2004 at 05:04 AM (#65993)
I also applaud Phillips for having the courage to stand up to Scott Boras and his demands. Based on all that I've read and the sources that I've talked to, I firmly believe that Boras did make all of those silly demands of the Mets--without Alex Rodriguez' knowledge. Yes, it would be great to have A-Rod, but every negotiation has its limits.
I'm not a Mets fan, but I'd be surprised if they don't make the playoffs this season. I also believe that Phillips will make a deal either during spring training or during the regular season to bolster the weakest link of the team. He has been an aggressive trader in-season (making deals for Bubba Trammell, Rick White, Kenny Rogers, and Shawon Dunston, among others) each of the last two years.
I'm here! Wow. Reminders of the beginning of the end of the Phillips Era. He was coming off the 2000 WS then -- who saw how quickly it would all fall apart.3. I Love LA (OFF) Posted: January 17, 2004 at 08:09 AM (#65995)
'Course, Sheff now has made it to New York . . . other borough, though.
Who needs Gary Sheffield and his stinking 167 OPS+ when you could have these studs instead?

Police: Limo driver stole from family he gave ride to
A limousine driver was arrested and charged with stealing property from a family he gave a ride to.
On Sunday, a young couple and their children flew into Hyannis on a private jet from Florida. The pilots and airport personnel help the limo drivers load the family's luggage into two waiting vehicles.
About two hours after the family arrived at their Oyster Harbors residence, the family discovered some of their luggage missing -- including a bag that had $100,000 worth of jewelry in it.
Police interviewed everyone who assisted the family on its arrival in Massachusetts. Police narrowed down suspects to one of the limousine drivers, Bruce Brown, 60, of Hyannis, Mass.
During an interrogation, Brown confessed to police he stole the missing luggage and jewelry.
Brown led police to a trash dumpster on Hinckley Road in Hyannis where three pieces of luggage and the missing jewelry were recovered.
Brown was arraigned in Barnstable District Court on Wednesday and released on personal recognizance.

Activists rally against Wisconsin marriage amendment
BY admin
March 02 2004 12:00 AM ET
Several hundred gay rights activists on Monday protested a proposed amendment to the Wisconsin constitution that would prohibit same-sex marriages or civil unions, saying they have been ignored by lawmakers intent on writing discrimination into state law. A senate committee was also scheduled Monday to hold a public hearing on the proposal as Wisconsin participates in a debate raging nationwide over same-sex marriages. But the activists boycotted the hearing, saying it was a sham and the committee had already made up its mind to approve the amendment. The activists also challenged lawmakers who support the amendment to sign a fidelity pledge, promising to remain faithful in their own marriages and denounce others who do not for undermining the sanctity of marriage.
The proposed amendment is in the early stages of a long process to become law. An amendment must pass both houses of the legislature in consecutive legislative sessions and be approved by voters in a statewide referendum before it can take effect. It has not been scheduled for a vote in either house yet. Wisconsin statutes already define marriage as a contract between a husband and a wife and do not recognize same-sex marriage. But supporters say the amendment is needed to ensure that "activist judges" do not interpret the Wisconsin constitution to require same-sex marriages or require recognition of same-sex marriages approved in other states. President Bush has endorsed an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would outlaw same-sex marriages.

New York Mets Luck Out With Shaun Marcum Injury
One day after finding out that Jon Niese wouldn't need shoulder surgery, the New York Mets received more good news when they learned that Shaun Marcum will have surgery to address numbness in his pitching hand and will miss the rest of the season. Normally, losing a starting pitcher for the season wouldn't be considered good news, but without Marcum, the Mets should be a better team.
On the season, Marcum has just one win and 10 losses, with an ERA over five. He has been the weak spot in the starting rotation all season, and starts where he's actually given the Mets a chance to win the game have been few and far between.
He was likely on the verge of losing his spot in the rotation due to his poor performance, and so this injury has allowed the Mets to rid of Marcum, as the end result is similar to the Mets simply releasing him.
In Marcum's defense, he had been dealing with a variety of injuries all season long. He had an abbreviated spring training and missed the early part of the regular season while trying to get healthy.
He was clearly less than 100 percent during his most recent starts, but that should not absolve him from his poor performance, as he should have gone to the disabled list sooner if he knew he wasn't healthy and his performance was being affected.
Marcum's failure, in many ways, is a failure for general manager Sandy Alderson. The Mets signed just two free agents to major league contracts this past offseason, Marcum and Brandon Lyon, and neither was able to make it to the All-Star break on the active roster. They may have seemed like good signings at the time, but now both should be considered failures on the part of Alderson.
Marcum was signed with the hope that he would be able to eat up innings for the Mets and win at least 10 games. However, he ended up making just 14 appearances and lost 10 games, giving the Mets very little positive contributions, especially considering his $4 million salary, which is essentially wasted.
Wasted money aside, the Mets should be better off without Marcum. If the Mets need a fifth starter before Niese returns from his injury, they can insert Carlos Torres, who has been phenomenal since being promoted. So while losing Marcum may seem like bad news, losing him for the rest of the season should benefit the Mets' starting rotation.

Let's make a deal: Boeing Field for trails

Seattle Times staff reporters
Call it the local land swap of the century — maybe.
Under a deal many months in the making, the Port of Seattle would acquire Boeing Field from King County and in exchange would give the county a 47-mile Eastside rail corridor for recreational use.
It's still just a concept.
It faces many hurdles: regulatory, financial, business and political.
But King County Executive Ron Sims and Port of Seattle Chief Executive Mic Dinsmore presented it as a vital transaction at a news conference Wednesday that even surprised one of the county's biggest private employers — Boeing, whose operations in both Renton and Boeing Field could feel the impact.
"This is by far the most ambitious initiative taken in a generation," Sims said, putting the value of the land transfer at hundreds of millions of dollars.
There are several key pieces to the deal:
The Port would take over management of King County International Airport, a general- aviation hub also known as Boeing Field. The Port already owns and operates Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
In return, the Port would buy a key Renton-to-Everett line owned by BNSF Railway, and give it to the county, paying for creation of a recreational trail. That would create the largest greenway since the Mountains to Sound Greenway was set up in 1991 to protect forest views along Interstate 90, Sims said. But he said it's not certain whether trains might still run on part of the corridor.
How the many-sided deal would work
• The Port of Seattle buys BNSF Railway's 47-mile Eastside rail corridor, valued at $100 million to $180 million.
• The Port turns the corridor over to King County and also funds creation of a recreational trail on the corridor.
• King County turns over Boeing Field, whose value it estimates to be at least $200 million, to the Port of Seattle.
• The Port also gets some waterfront parcels to build a new rail yard, increasing efficiency at its cargo terminals.
• The BNSF rail line at Stampede Pass, currently a bottleneck for eastbound cargo trains, gets improved with $25 million in state money.

The Port also would gain some waterfront land where it could build a new rail yard, helping it become a stronger competitor to other West Coast ports that have been taking business from Seattle this year. The Port also would benefit from rail improvements to let double-stacked trains cross Stampede Pass in the Cascades on a track owned by BNSF between Seattle and Ellensburg, for which Gov. Christine Gregoire pledged $25 million in state funds.
The complex deal offers something for both the Port and county. Boeing Field is barely in the black after several money-losing years, so Sims may welcome the opportunity to swap it for a popular amenity. For the Port, the deal provides control of a potentially competing airport, and also results in long-sought rail improvements.
Sims and Dinsmore said they broached the swap idea last year, a month after another proposal to reshape Boeing Field was rejected. Southwest Airlines had proposed moving to Boeing Field to avoid high fees at Sea-Tac; the Port fought that idea vigorously.
In outlining the plan Wednesday, Dinsmore stressed its complexity and many obstacles.
Among them:
• Political approval. The ports of Seattle and Tacoma, the state, the King County Council, railroads and possibly the Federal Aviation Administration and other agencies would need to sign off.
What the Port would get
Boeing Field and rail improvements on Seattle waterfront and at Stampede Pass
What King County would get
Trails on 47-mile Eastside rail corridor, which the Port would buy from BNSF Railway
What's next?
A lengthy process of approvals and analyses of impact and cost
• Business impacts. Boeing uses the Eastside rail line to move fuselage pieces between Renton and Everett.
• Cost. Sims' office estimates the airport is worth at least $200 million. The rail corridor to be acquired from BNSF Railway is valued at about $100 million to $180 million. Sims said the county otherwise would have had to raise taxes to buy the property.
"We haven't even gone down the path to decide where the money comes from," Dinsmore said.
Despite those concerns, the two leaders said they are determined to press ahead, and warned of dire consequences for Seattle's Port and the region if the swap doesn't happen.
"This concept agreement required everyone to give something up," Sims said. And he added: "Speed is key."
If the region doesn't pursue this, Sims said, "We'll see Long Beach [Calif.], L.A., Portland, San Francisco, Vancouver [B.C.] be the place to go because they were faster. This required breaking the mold."
The Port, which has seen cargo volume fall this year as shippers route to Los Angeles and Long Beach, considers the deal vital to Seattle's competitiveness.
"As you look at growth, what the constraint will be is rail capacity," Dinsmore said.
The new rail yard would speed transfer of cargo containers from ships to trains. The Port already has such a yard, operated by BNSF.
And expanding Stampede Pass would allow rail companies to send double-stacked freight trains through.
At Boeing Field, some airplane-service businesses voiced fears that having the Port as their landlord would bring higher fees that would drive away jobs. "If they take the same approach at Boeing Field they take at Sea-Tac, it will be very detrimental to the area, because the costs here, if anything, should be lowered," said Joe Clark, chief executive of Boeing Field-based Aviation Partners. The business develops winglets that make commercial jets more efficient.
Boeing is the biggest tenant at Boeing Field, leasing property at the airfield and delivering its 737 narrowbodies there. "Boeing will wait and see how the discussions between the Port of Seattle and King County develop," said spokesman Peter Conte, who learned about the Boeing Field piece of the swap from a reporter.
As for the Eastside rail line, Boeing and BNSF have discussed an alternative rail route to bring the newest and largest 737 fuselages to the Renton plant, and BNSF has pledged the current track would remain open at least until the alternate route is available, he said.
The plan found some immediate political support. In a statement, Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., said the plan "represents the kind of forward thinking that will help secure a brighter future for our region."
Gregoire said the plan "anticipates future demands on our transportation system and will help to efficiently move our high-quality Washington agricultural products to the global market."
But others were more skeptical. King County Councilman Pete von Reichbauer, R-Federal Way, said the plan "opened up a Pandora's box of questions" about how the Boeing Field transfer would affect airspace from Magnolia to South King County.
Dinsmore said there are no plans to move commercial air service. "It would not be our intent to do anything different than what we so adamantly argued against last year," when Southwest Airlines proposed moving to Boeing Field, he said. The Port could consider expanding service to Boeing Field when Sea-Tac hits capacity, but he doesn't expect that to happen until 2020.
One Port commissioner said the cost and potential loss of the rail corridor appeared misguided. "It looks to me to be a very sad day for the future of transportation in King County, and a sad day for King County taxpayers, who are going to be paying more than they should for this right of way," Port Commissioner Alec Fisken said. King County taxpayers pay about $60 million annually in property taxes to fund the Port.
"It's certainly a creative idea," said King County Councilman Bob Ferguson, D-Seattle, who chairs the capital-budget committee.
"But the bottom line is whether it's a good deal for King County taxpayers."

WESTON, Conn. – If you're planning a holiday party and want to make your home look sharp, Weston interior designer Lexie Proceller is here to help.
"People become very stressed during the holidays when they entertain family, friends, and especially business associates. They're rushed and harried, but want their home to present well. That's where I come in," Proceller said.
Proceller has developed a special staging program for holiday parties that range from casual open houses to holiday cocktail parties and formal dinners.
One room is chosen for a face lift and she will deliver a presentation that includes fabrics, paint chips and layouts. New lighting, window treatments, upholstery and seasonal accessories may be included.
Holiday decor, from greenery to candles, wreaths, dried flowers, pine cones and fruit can be incorporated into the design.
At staging parties, Proceller's consulting fee is waved and the cost concerns only materials and labor.
"Creating festive surroundings can help set the tone for an upbeat celebration," Proceller said. "Holiday stress just might disappear in your newly refurbished room. Entertainers should toast the season and take note -- a holiday staging party may be the ideal gift to yourself this year."
Proceller is available for holiday home staging events, consulting, and design work. For more information, please contact her via email@example.com or (203) 258-4576.

Michael Schwartz, the chief of staff for Republican senator Tom Coburn
of Oklahoma, announced what he called a surefire way for social
conservatives to turn their preadolescent sons off pornography on
Friday. He said parents should teach their sons that all
pornography is "homosexual," because "boys at that age have less
tolerance for homosexuality than just about any other class of people."
Schwartz presented his pornography-as-kryptonite theory at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C., where he joined colleagues from the Family Research Council and the Heritage Foundation for a panel called "The New Masculinity."
According to the blog Think Progress, "A few minutes into his speech, Schwartz moved to the topic of pornography, calling it a 'blight' and a 'disease' that parents' 'sons' would encounter. Noting that he was about to get 'politically incorrect,' Schwartz said that it is his 'observation that boys at that age have less tolerance for homosexuality than just about any other class of people.'"
Schwartz connected this observation to a comment made by his "ex-gay" friend Jim Johnson, founder of Beyond Rejection ministries, as he wove the ideas into a broader strategy to help parents eradicate pornography from their sons' lives.
"And one of the things that he said to me," continued Schwartz, according to Think Progress, "that I think is an astonishingly insightful remark. He said, 'all pornography is homosexual pornography because all pornography turns your sexual drive inwards.' Now think about that. And if you, if you tell an 11-year-old boy about that, do you think he's going to want to go out and get a copy of Playboy? I'm pretty sure he'll lose interest. That's the last thing he wants."
"That's a good comment. That's a good point. And it's a good thing to teach young people," said Schwartz.

O.K. There's this guy Jake I really really really like. Only, I don't know him so well and I know for a fact that this girl that's kinda sorta my friend likes him, alot. She's always flirting with him and I can't tell if he likes her or not. I would like to be closer to him. He's really cute and funny and smart and all that "perfect" jazz. Well, I've only talked to him a time or two. I've known him for a while but I moved from where I live now and then moved back. Before I hadn't really noticed him, but now I think of him all the time. How can I make this more than just a casual acquaintance before he falls for that other girl I talked about? Can someone pleeze tell me how to land this dude?
- ya, i'm that desperate
- ya, i'm that desperate
As for the other girl in the picture…don't stress out about it. I am the queen of over analyzing and I can tell you that obsessing over the unknown details makes for a messy situation. If you are close enough friends with her that a possible relationship with Jake would totally put a damper on your bud bond then you need to ask her what's up. It's always a difficult situation when two BFFs dig the same guy, but your best bet is to lay all your cards on the table and let your bud know your intentions. If you don't think that a love connection between you and Jake will have a drastic affect on this chic, then don't sweat it.

The E! channel has graciously offered to pick up the multimillion dollar tab for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding. It's sort of a tradition really when the bride's on her third husband, her dad is dead, and a dozen TV executives are paying for their kids braces off the antics of the small-headed ass-model in question. The whole things is going to be shot for a very special episode of the Kardashian family reality show, Cunts on Parade. This way the network can control all the logistics of the event and they don't have to worry that Kanye will do something stupid like ride in on musthing elephant that mauls half the congregation. Instead, he can ride up in a Mini-Cooper chalked up with a Kotex presenting sponsorship advertisement. The wedding will be held somewhere outside of Paris but not in Versailles like Satan's favorite couple had desired, But expect it to be a place that sounds magical, but only to be truly made so with the enchantment of the couple's first ass-to-mouth encounter without a prophylactic dental dam. I always cry at weddings.
E! To Pay For Kim And Kanye's Unholy Union
Kim Kardashian Wraps Herself in Fat-Protective Carbon Mesh
In addition to reining in the copious amounts of body fat that you can't photoshop out in real life, Kim Kardashian's new carbon mesh containment system (CMCS) protects her from shark attack and skin-to-skin gonorrhea. It also renders her radar signature to be half her native size, so 2'6″ and 75 pounds when nobody in the family is cycling. Kim whipped out her superhero costume for a big meeting in Beverly Hills where smart people would use the word 'strumpet' so that Kim wouldn't realize they were talking about her as she dumbly nodded and held her breath. Even carbon mesh has its tensile limits.

It's Possible The Kardashians Are Big Fucking Liars
Kim Kardashian made a splash on Jimmy Kimmel last night, mostly to show the advancements in girdle technology that allow her to look less like a chattering crocus bulb. Being a talk show, Kim had to rehearse some spoken words beyond just 'Kanye, go kill him!' and 'I get five dollars to make you holler, Mister". So she played sympathetic sister, speaking of how badly broken Khloe Kardashian was by discovering that the man she knew for nearly four hours before marriage was secretly a crack smoking whoremonger with mental health issues. Kim insisted that despite what you saw on the show, Khloe never really wanted to make a baby with Lamar because she knew he was troubled. So, all those sympathetic condolences from her family on her lack of pregnancy, and those trips to the fertility clinics, Khloe actually skipped those. Well don't I feel pretty fucking stupid for sobbing along with Khloe's barren womb all these years. I don't know what to believe anymore.
Kim Kardashian's Breasts Make Her A Great Mom
Because it's all she apparently does now, Kim Kardashian went shopping in Beverly Hills yesterday with her baby and the rapper that gifted it to her in exchange for her soul. More importantly, Kim was in full-on mom mode, proving her haters and critics wrong by showing that not only can she take care of her baby and remove her from a car while Kanye West stands there and looks like a disinterested asshole, but she can also properly place a towel over the stroller to keep North West away from the harmful sun. Although, I wouldn't be shocked if she accidentally knocked the stroller over and a bunch of empty cans fell out, and Kim had to admit that she left her baby in a Gucci store months ago.

Kanye And Kim's Breasts Had Date Night
Poor Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. They must be so sad that they were denied the chance to get married at Versailles and put their own exclamation point on their obnoxious insistence that they're somehow American royalty, since he became famous as a rapper and she became famous for blowing one. But they put on their bravest faces and Kim squeezed her tits into her happiest dress after attending some Fashion Week crap in Paris so they could have a nice, private date night out. After all, nothing shows the world that you just don't give a fuck what everyone thinks like a pair of leather pants and your woman's tits flapping in the breeze.

Kim and Kanye Denied a Versailles Wedding
if fairytales involved smugness and sexual obsession and pandering and mental illness and cynical promotion and out of wedlock babies, then Kim and Kanye would be a fairytale romance for the ages. And where else to host a fairytale wedding but a palace in France. Though recently denied their destiny on earth to be married at Versailles, Kim and Kanye continue to tour France for palacial venue options for a pre-sold TV packaged wedding of the century. France affords the the spectacle of a grand European wedding without the nuisance of outstanding battery and assault charges on the groom. Also, most of the men Kim has used and conned through the years live in the U.S. so they're unlikely to scream out 'Because she's a fucking whore!' in the audience when the minister asks that 'If anyone knows a reason…' question. It could only be more fairytale perfect if these two human stains were consumed by dragon fire.

Oil down to a trickle
Widespread flooding disrupts drilling in southwest
Overland flooding and periods of heavy rain have been wreaking havoc this summer on Manitoba's burgeoning oil industry.
Dan MacLean, chief executive of Winnipeg-based Tundra Oil & Gas Ltd. -- the largest player in the southwestern Manitoba oilpatch -- said this has been one of the worst years for weather delays in the more than 30 years Tundra has been active in the oilpatch.
That comment was echoed by the president of one of the smaller players -- Virden-based Antler River Resources.
"I've seen more water issues in the last four or five years than ever before," said Murray Cameron, who's also been working in the oilpatch since the early 1980s.
"But we've never had bridges taken out like we've had this year," he added.
During the height of the most recent crisis -- from June 28 to July 5 -- more than 90 per cent of Tundra's 2,000 wells were shut down. And no new wells were being drilled because the ground was either too wet or the well sites were inaccessible due to damaged roads and bridges.
MacLean said the company has been gradually bringing wells back into production since July 5, and hopes to have all 2,000 back in operation by early next week. Company officials are crossing their fingers Tundra also will have its six drilling rigs back in operation by the middle of next week.
"We have to get permission from the (rural municipalities) and the Department of Highways to use RM roads and Manitoba highways for this heavy equipment," MacLean said.
"If we get more (substantial) rain and road conditions deteriorate further, we could be delayed. We are hoping for dryer, warmer weather."
He said rain delays are not uncommon in the oilpatch, noting last year periods of heavy rain temporarily shut down production at some of its wells. This year, the flooding is more widespread so more wells have been affected.
The Manitoba government said 75 to 85 per cent of the wells in the Waskada-Pierson area have been affected by flooding this summer. It said another oilpatch player -- Corex Resources Ltd. -- had 40 per cent of its oil wells out of commission during the flood.
"How long production is shut-in and when drilling activity will recommence will depend on weather, ground and road conditions and will be evaluated on a case by case basis," it added.
It also said the financial blow to the industry won't be known for another two months, when the next production numbers have to be submitted.
While many of the companies operating in the oilpatch have been negatively affected by this year's flooding, they're not the only ones hurting.
Area residents who work in the oil field and companies that provide products and services to the industry are also hurting.
Pierson resident and independent contractor Kevin Dekeyser, who helps prepare well-drilling sites, has gone nearly two months without a regular paycheque because roads were too wet or too damaged for trucks to haul equipment to the drilling sites.
So the married father of two has been grabbing odd jobs whenever he can to bring some money in.
"The last couple of weeks, I've been fixing roads with a backhoe. So it's been nice. But I'll do pretty well anything."
Dekeyser said it's so wet he figures it could be fall before he's back working on oil-drilling sites.
"I might get a job here and there... but probably nothing steady until freeze-up."
Virden Mayor Jeff McConnell said because the oil industry is one of the main economic drivers for the area, many of the town's residents and businesses are being hurt, directly or indirectly, by the interruption in oil production and drilling activity.
That includes people who work in the oil field and don't get paid if they're not working, equipment and parts suppliers, electrical companies and hotels and restaurants.
MacLean said although most of Tundra's wells were out of production for at least a week and its drilling program is nearly a month behind schedule, the company hasn't laid off any of its more than 200 oilpatch employees.
"This is just a short-term thing. We have people helping out in many other ways," he said.
"We live and work in these communities and we're trying to support these communities."
He said company officials still hope to drill about 220 new wells this year, even though only 60 have been done so far.
"We'll probably have to bring in another (drilling) rig or two if they're available, but we're going to shoot for it."

Lively has a pet Maltipoo, a cross between a Maltese and a poodle, named Penny. Owning such a creature is one reason the actress rarely wears pink. "I'm blonde, and I have a small dog, so I try to avoid looking like a piece of bubble gum as much as possible," she says.

A mansion tax will be fair, simple and pay to save the NHS - Ed Balls
Promises have to be paid for — so Britain's richest home owners will fund Labour's plans for health service cash
20 October 2014 12:00 PM
Ed Balls: A mansion tax will make the housing market fair for all
Building more homes and a levy on London's most expensive properties will help rebalance the market
23 June 2014 11:57 AM
Ed Balls: Ask yourself this - are you better off now than in 2010?
In next week's Budget George Osborne should stop boasting and prime a general rise in living standards

Ed Balls: This dithering on big projects is crippling Britain
A year on, we can be proud of the success of London 2012. The Olympics showed that Britain can decide on, and then deliver major building projects when there is cross-party consensus and a sense of national purpose. But that isn't always the case when it comes to big infrastructure projects.

Introducing measures in next month's Budget to reward workers is an essential way to kick-start the economy

Wednesday's Autumn Statement is George Osborne's chance finally to get growth into a flatlining economy
03 December 2012 11:55 AM
Ed Balls: Bank inquiry must be outside partisan government
Banking is a profession that depends on trust. But trust in our banks has been badly undermined. And today Parliament must act to sort this out once and for all.

Global confidence cannot be restored without balanced national plans to stimulate economies and employment

GOD forbid that honesty be allowed into debate. Maybe you should try it, it works great for me. It has left you laying in the corner in a fetal position mumbling "gibberish".<quoted text>
Sure you do. That's why you are so afraid to actually confront arguments that threaten your beliefs. "I take it on faith!" Blah, blah, blah.
It's the Darwin crowd that lacks the facts in evolution debate

LMAO!!! Quoting a bronze age book of mythology as a scientific source.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!
#108100 Jan 18, 2013
Then show me. YOU CAN"T!!! You have no leg to stand on. If GOD created life, life came from a previous life and the LAw of Biogenesis has been satisfied and no spontainious generation event has ever been documented in a lab nor nature. For your "scientific views" on abiogenesis to be valid, they DEMAND A VIOLATION OF A KNOWN SCIENTIFIC LAW!!!! How inconsistent can you be????????
#108101 Jan 18, 2013
That is meaningless because if you dig up the remains of a modern cat and dog of the same size, their is not that big a difference today. That does not mean they are related or have a common ancester.
#108102 Jan 18, 2013
Sorry to disagree my friend, but the extreme complexity of life is not even close to be replicated. But here's the deal. The big debate is does GOD exist or not. Do you not ever wonder how all these things needed for life to exist, how they got here? Can you imagine the math needed to figure out the possibilities, that somehow the building blocks of life exist, "somehow" assembled themselves in such a way that they spontainiously generated into life violating the Law of Biogenesis which has never been observed violated in a lab nor nature, that eventually evolved into the most complex thing in the known universe known as the human brain with billions of interconnected electrical circuts and has the ability of self consciousness and self awareness. Do you see how really hard that is to believe that could even be a possibilty? I don't have that much faith. Fairy tails say that a frog became a prince. Scientists call it evolution.
#108103 Jan 18, 2013
Why did you just change the subject as if my reply to you didn't clearly answer your question?
#108104 Jan 18, 2013
Because I don't think nature allows to know near everything that happens around us. I think due to the extreme complexity of life that nature couldn't possibly be the cause, I believe the origin of life is a supernatural event. I believe angels are messengers from GOD, I believe witches exist because they label themselves that today. I don't think they have any powers or anything, I just believe they are mixed up people with issues. I believe that animals can talk because I have heard a parrot talk and a hienna (sp?) laugh. So i have no problem taking the next step and GOD using this in a supernatural way to bring about his will or to convey a message.

This is not new science, Kitten..
A team of 20 physicists from four institutions has literally made something from nothing, creating particles of matter from ordinary light for the first time. The experiment was carried out at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) by scientists and students from the University of Rochester, Princeton University, the University of Tennessee, and Stanford.
Indeed if one is to believe that all the matter in the universe was contained within a singularity, then similarly a source of energy has formed into the matter of the universe.
Energy, has been observed to produce matter. Organic matter, blood, organs and cerebral engrams are only elements in precise locations, mixed with water, and electric spark.
Now I responded with many reasons as to why I have faith and you have chosen to address one of them.
Why do you and others have faith that there is no God and life can arise out of elements or rock into complex factories of reproduction all by themselves hanging around those deep vents or organic soup pond or any other speculation?

Your premiss hinges on the idea made popular ie. popular misconception, that photons have no mass nor weight.
Which is not true.
But more sailliant is that you have not proven that electro-magnetic energy (recall that you say god is) all by itself, as in not working on mass can simply change into matter.

Photons being massless is a figure of speech.
#108112 Jan 18, 2013
Who stated that the Bible does not record any "inconsistencies" of that type? If someone reports that a parent sometimes rewards and sometimes punishes his children, does that mean the actions didn't take place?
Round 2:
According to Gen. 22:1 Jehovah did not tempt (e.g., Gen. 3) Abraham with anything. He gave him an instruction to test him. Do you actually know of a Bible translation in which Gen. 22:1 refers to God tempting Abraham?

So, if our scientists can do it, it's not something that requires a massively magical and not understood being to accomplish. Very good, you have provided evidence that no god is needed for the universe to exist. You have proven your own notion of what a "god" is completely wrong. How does it feel to finally wake up?
#108114 Jan 18, 2013
Both of them? Why shouldn't one or the other or perhaps both be?

Your god is pitiful, prone to fits of rage over very minuscule slights that are nothing but imagined. That is not a parent, that is a tyrant. A parent, a good one at least, does not go into fits of rage and kill off all their offspring for imagined slights, much less, they don't punish their children for their entire lives simply for not buying some snake oil.
That is one of the reasons we know your god is nothing more than your super ego, and imagined being to use as an excuse for your own ends.
#108116 Jan 18, 2013
So far it's every time you decice to play it. The verifiable facts (data) never change, nor will they. It appears you don't choose to harmonize your thinking with the demonstrable harmony of the complete body of relevant data.
Since: Jul 12
#108117 Jan 18, 2013
1,The empirical evidence is a book that was written prior to modern science. It is called the Bible.
This is the message we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in him there is no darkness at all (1 John 1:5).
Which he will bring about at the proper time - he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen (1 Timothy 6:15,16)
2.It was light used as the source of energy in the particle accelerator. They have produced photons as well. Don't be lazy and go look up your own research. That is unless you call be a liar and then I'd be glad to make a fool of you and let you be lazy.
3,Desperado! No one doubts the biological process of reproduction. We are talking about the first life/s. Unless you are talking about rocks giving birth, then I guess you are just prepared to look silly for the heck of it.
Yes when data leads to different interpretations based on different assumptions they are not necessarily the way 'other' believers define. Does that come as a surprize to you?
I have many reasons listed as to why I have faith in the God of the bible. A source of light/energy has been OBSERVED to form matter. I also have factual information that so far there is NO observed life in our galaxy or the universe.
What have you got that demonstrates elements can organze themsleves into complex factories themselves or by chance? Do you have any observed evidence that life has arisen in a similar way elsewhere, or even multiple times on the earth, to demonstrate the 'naturalness' of this process?
So is this yet again going to be all about creos supporting their stand with evolutionists chasing us and their own tails and hiding away? Could this be because evos have nothing of merit to offer for their basis for faith? eg elements orgaizing themsleves into complex factories of reproduction whilst hanging around some deep ocean thermal vent, life elsewhere, etc?
What makes you think the evocation a deity is less plausible than suggesting rocks or dirt have intelligence and a plan, or 'luck' did it?

The Casey's Car Toot Revolve attraction during a moment of contemplation
The Casey's Car Toot Revolve entrance is like a cruise into the world of Toottown. The attraction cars are supposed to look like Baldie the Cab, and while you drive you can revolve them by nodding the steering wheel.

The former St. Andrew's Catholic Church and school at 1028 Van Slyke Av. in St. Paul is being transformed into the new home of the Twin Cities German Immersion charter school. Linking the two buildings is a challenge because they're at different elevations.

But many will age in place because of incentives built into the pension. Prior to July of 1989, the major MN Govt Pensions had the "rule of 90," which allowed for full retirement when your age and years of service = 90.
But for workers hired after that, full retirement is at full social security age. I was hired in 1987 and my rule of 90 date is July 1, 2019 (go ahead, calculate my age : ) But many of my co-workers will not have that luxury. I may stay working to support my kids...
My annual wage is about $90k and the pension calculation at full retirement is 1.7%/year x 33 years x$ 90k = $50 ish k. If I take a the benefit to pay out for both my wife and I for our lifetime it is a little less. My wife will not have any sort of a pension until full social security age (she'll have a partial govt at that point and she's got no medical. I have single coverage retiree medical at the same rate as a normal govt employee, until I hit medical age. We have 401's besides...
And we saw the implementation of MNsure. Good luck with the efficiency effort.
"Johnson supported a new 911 call center opening in Plymouth. At a cost of $33.75 million, the newly opened facility will replace the Hennepin County Sheriff Department's aging Golden Valley facility." Note that the Sheriff was sitting next to Mr. Johnson when he was endorsed. The new 911 call center is a bit of a Taj Mahal and fiscally irresponsible for taxpayers. The status quo of Hennepin, Minneapolis and several other agencies in Hennepin County having separate centers is inefficient....
"Stanek said he has helped reduce violent crime in the county by 36 percent since 2007" Actually, the number of violent crime was reduced by 28 percent in Minneapolis and 23 percent between 2007 and 2013 in the suburbs, per the MN BCA Crime Report. Plus politicians tend to report a period that is advantageous. The recent crime peak was in 2006.
I don't know that the Minneapolis and Suburban Police departments appreciate Stanek taking credit for police work. The Hennepin County...
Perhaps as the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of Hennepin County, the Sheriff could offer a little assistance to the citizens of North Minneapolis. He does have a car at the state fair I see.
Per the 2014 Sheriff's budget, a total of approximately $92 million annually, annual budgeted amounts (rounded):
$9 million on Communications (911)
$12.5 million on Enforcement Services
$4 million on Forensic Services
$8 million on Investigative Services
$11 million on Administration
$33 million on Adult Detention (Downtown Jail)
$7 million on Court Services
$7.5 million on Information Technology
That $11 million dollar number on Admin...
Has a pretty level head on his shoulders and this worked out to be about the best compromise one could expect from an issue that was not predicted to gain traction this year.
The LSCMI, does not even list Mental Health as a criminogenic risk factor. Yet 25% of many jail populations screen positive for mental health issues (the two questions often screen people in to medical for continued services are "are you currently taking medication" or "have you ever been hospitalized"). I think that in many ways that we are using jails and prisons as proxy mental health institutions, because they are cheap and available if someone has a crime they can be sentenced on ($...
Geographic restrictions, that's another winning Minneapolis strategy.
