Meet your heroes at Sunday's game with our special competition
STOKE CITY are offering a lucky fan the opportunity to rub shoulders with a galaxy of ex-Potters stars at Sunday's Barclays Premier League game against Tottenham as the Club marks its 150th anniversary.
The game has been designated as a celebration of the milestone moment in the Club's history and more than 80 former players, including World Cup winners Sir Geoff Hurst and Gordon Banks, will be paraded on the pitch before the kick-off as part of the festivities.
The City legends will retire to the Sky Lounge after the final whistle and the winner of our competition – along with a guest – will be there with them.
To be in with a chance of winning what truly is a money-can't-buy prize, just answer the following question:
Who scored Stoke City's goals when they beat Chelsea in the 1972 League Cup Final?
Email your entry to firstname.lastname@example.com. The closing date for entries is midnight on Saturday (11th May).
Please note all entrants – and the person they will ask to accompany them if they win the competition - must already be planning to attend Sunday's game. Include full contact details on your entry email as the lucky winner will be notified on Sunday morning.
The Grand Parade of ex-players is just one of a host of special events the Club have planned at Sunday's game. Full details can be found by clicking here.

Your new enemy species is tough, but also a great challenge for my Captain level player. There are so many good foundry created missions out there I have enjoyed, but I rank yours up there with the best of them. Great effects, scenery, and most of all, the story.
I recommend it highly to any browsing the community authored missions looking for a new experience.
I give the whole series 6 Stars and cannot wait for part 4. Hopefully not too long. Hint, hint...
Thanks for your props. Spawn of Medusa and Spawn of Medusa II are the only 2 available
at the moment, but they are both working and playable, less a couple visual effects like a
missing plasma fire and a holographic Base in starfleet headquarters, but they are both
fine otherwise and fully playable. Hopefully I'll be able to republish Spawn of Medusa III
again after the Foundry fix, and follow soon with part 4. Thanks again.

In Python why a function called
main doesn't have any special significance like it has in C and Java?
What if a programmer switches from C or Java to Python. Should he keep
main in Python also like in C or Java as it's his style now to do
the programming or in a broad sense it is somehow harmful for doing
programming in Python?
Edit: I have gone through this article where it was mentioned by a very good example why first time programmers should refrain main in python main in python harmful.

You might think you've got cool stuff in your house, but these home improvements will have you thinking otherwise -- and wishing that you were filthy rich.
The United States dominated a new Olympic sport, and the host nation of Russia claimed its first gold of the Sochi Games during the first weekend of competition. Here's a recap of this weekend's action:
MIX 106 was out at the Taco Bell Arena to get fans excited for the amazing Imagine Dragons show! Thousands came out for the first show of the tour, with a few lucky listeners getting to wish the band
luck before they hit the stage!
MIX 106's Mike Kasper was at Varsity Pub for the Happiest Happy Hour. Join Mike every Thursday for the best happy hour in town and a chance to win a $50 bar tab and $50 in cash!
It took all year, but the cream finally rose all the way to the top. The Seattle Seahawks have proven once and for all, which team is by far the best in the NFL this year. As embarrassing as the Bronco Loss was, it probably doesn't come close to this!
MIX 106's Mike and Kate were out at the 2nd annual Canyon County Kids Expo at the Idaho Center in Nampa celebrating family fun! There was face painting, bounce houses and vendors with goodies galore!
Twenty lucky listeners got an awesome opportunity to have lunch with Kate McGwire at the all new Village At Meridian. The lucky 20 enjoyed Calle 75 Tacos and Sicilian food from Cacicia's!!
MIX 106's Mike Kasper was at Varsity Pub for the Treasure Valley's truly Happiest Happy Hour. There was half off drinks and appetizers plus we played bar bingo for $50 cash and a $50 bar tab.
Kate McGwire had her annual January Kate University Skiing & Snowboarding at Brundage Mountain in McCall Idaho. Where adult beginner skiers & snowboarders learned to carve the snow with no intimidation.
MIX 106 and Kate McGwire were at the final day of the 31st Annual Dennis Dillon Expo Sale! Hundreds of cars, trucks, and SUVs were up for grabs with the lowest prices of the year!

We talk a lot about so-called 'business transformation', but what do we really mean by this expression and how does it change the way (as workers) now operate on the shop floor?
Read any history of the industrial revolution and you will understand the massively impactful swings that our workplace went through from the 1800s through to the introduction of the automatic lathe around the turn of the last century.
As ignominious and dull as it sounds in the age of the digital revolution, the arrival of the auto-lathe was a defining moment in business transformation; it enabled the precise machining of screws and metallic component parts which opened the door to many of the machine tool technologies that we still use today.
Business Management 3.0
This was a moment in industrial history and, very arguably it appears, we can be said to be on the verge of another business transformation as a result of what we will call Business Management 3.0 and the data-driven workforce.
Business Management 3.0 means that we no longer sit at the helm (of the business) and simply look ahead for stormy seas. Ready to steer the business through choppy waters and cycles in demand if they occur, even the most progressive firms of old would always wait to experience change, then think about it, then react to it and finally do something about it.
Today, things are different.
Today, the intelligent 3.0 business uses mechanisms including predictive analytics to capitalize on the amount of information coming in from its departments, subdivisions and business units (or however you want to classify the component parts of the firm) and so can be said to be a "data-driven" business from the start, if it gets it right.
As insipid and broad-brush as this data-driven term sounds, it does have relevance; the data-driven business is a 'business transformed,' one that uses dashboards for competitive advantage to make high-precision decisions.
Information tools like dashboards are used to constantly monitor how strategic business plans are lining up against actual results and so lead on to what should be proactive decision making.
The data-driven business is a business transformed where predictive analytics is brought to the masses and moves its use beyond the realm of data scientists so that now business users grasp these tools.
The argument here states that if businesses work to put the appropriate levels of investment into developing a total data-driven workforce that operates along a path dictated and prescribed by true data-driven decisions (in terms of how processes are executed and how applications are aligned) - that firm can accelerate its performance, reduce decision latency, unlock new global markets and uncover new revenue opportunities.
Or so the theory goes at least; this is no simple overnight business transformation to pull off.
But that being said, the market for predictive analytics software is already estimated to be worth US$2 billion today and this is a figure that is expected and predicted to exceed US$3 billion in 2017.
Key enablers for the data-driven business transformation
A key enabler in this field will be cloud computing and its ability to push widespread access to corporate enterprises (many times from mobile devices) outwards so that predictive analytics tools can be (as we have already said) extended beyond their use by data scientists to Line-of-Business users and analysts in the workplace.
This is some of the new reality of business encapsulated here. Would that it were a catchier single mouthful, but unfortunately we need to say "data-driven business 3.0 transformation with predictive analytics" in all its 21 syllables out loud if we are going to conscientiously express the scope of the technology at hand here.
If the "industrial digital revolution" suits you better, then you are welcome to use it.

The actor, best known for his role on soap opera EastEnders, is said to have undergone reconstructive work on his skull after his Mini Cooper car smashed into a steel barrier in Derby, England, on Wednesday night.
Gaffney is recovering at the Royal Derby Hospital but his condition is said to be "not life-threatening".
A source tells The Sun newspaper: "The airbags went off but Dean got a serious smash on his head. He passed out and there was a lot of blood. The car was so folded up he had to be cut out by firefighters."
Gaffney had been driving home after performing in a stage production of Agatha Christie's A Murder Is Announced at the Derby Theatre.
Theatre manager Gary Johnson says: "It is really sad news. We were all shocked when we found out and it seems to have been a really nasty accident. It must have happened when he was on his way home. All our thoughts are with him and we wish him a speedy recovery."
The show's remaining performances are to go ahead as scheduled.

A diode OR gate permits trigger circuits of an array of SCR's to share the same integrating capacitor for suppression of short-lived transients, which might otherwise cause false triggering of the SCR's. The SCR's are switching and latching elements in a telephone cross-point switch array.
1. In a cross-point switch array with a plurality of four-layer devices having their anode-to-cathode paths connected as switching and latching elements between COLUMN and ROW busses and having their respective gate electrodes connected to receive COMMAND pulses of current from respective COMMAND signal lines for triggering their respective anode-to-cathode paths into conduction, triggering circuitry immune to false triggering brought about by transient pulses of shorter duration than said COMMAND pulses, said triggering circuitry comprising:
a plurality, N in number, of switchable current sources each for being activated by a COMMAND or transient pulse applied thereto from a respective COMMAND signal line;
a diode OR gate having a plurality, N in number, of input terminals, each connected to a separate one of said switchable current sources, and having an output terminal;
a capacitance connected between said OR gate output terminal and a point of potential to which the cathodes of said four layer devices are referred, for integrating said transient pulses; and
a plurality, N in number, of threshold potential breakdown devices, each connected between a respective one of said OR gate input terminals and the gate electrode of a respective one of said four-layer devices, their threshold potentials for breakdown being chosen sufficiently low that COMMAND pulses as integrated by said capacitance are large enough to overcome these threshold potentials and being chosen sufficiently high that transient pulses as integrated by said capacitance are too small to overcome these threshold potentials.
2. Triggering circuitry as set forth in claim 1 wherein said diode OR gate and at least a portion of said capacitance for integrating transient pulses comprises:
a plurality, N in number, of lateral-structure integrated transistors having their respective emitter electrodes connected as the respective input terminals of said OR gate, having their base and collector electrodes connected together as the output terminal of said OR gate, and having a substrate, their parallelled base-to-substrate capacitances providing at least a portion of said capacitance for integrating transient pulses.
3. The combination of:
an array of semiconductor controlled rectifiers, each having a conduction path and a gate electrode for controlling conduction through said path;
a plurality of control circuits, one for each gate controlled rectifier, each including an input terminal to which a COMMAND pulse may be applied, a current source, a normally open switch between that source and the gate electrode of its gate controlled rectifier, and means responsive to said COMMAND pulse for closing the switch of that circuit;
integrating means for substantially attenuating pulses of shorter duration than one of said COMMAND pulses; and
selective switching means responsive to pulses appearing at each of said input terminals for selectively applying said integrating means to the one of said control circuits having the input terminal on which the largest pulse appears to reduce the sensitivity of that control circuit to such pulse if it be of said shorter duration.
4. The combination set forth in claim 3 having a plurality of lateral geometry integrated transistors on a common substrate, having their respective emitter electrodes connected to separate ones of said control circuits and having their base and collector electrodes connected together to form an OR gate connection comprising said selective switching means, the parallelled capacitances between the base and collector regions of said transistors comprising said integrating means.
5. In combination:
an array of electronic switch devices, each having an input circuit and an output circuit, the output circuit of each electronic switch device having a relatively conductive state and a relatively non-conductive state depending upon whether a control potential appearing at the input circuit of that electronic switch device is above or below a threshold value;
means for recurrently applying a COMMAND current pulse to a selected one of the input circuits of said electronic switch devices to cause the potential thereacross to exceed said threshold value;
a plurality of unilaterally conductive devices, each of said unilaterally conductive devices exhibiting relatively easy current conduction from an electrode thereof to a common circuit node and each connected at its said electrode to a different one of the input circuits of said electronic switch devices;
a capacitance between said common circuit node and a reference potential, said capacitance being of a value to integrate any transient current pulse of shorter duration than said COMMAND pulse which transient current pulse is undesirably coupled to the input circuit of any one of said electronic switch devices and tends to cause the potential across the input circuit of said any one of said electronic switch devices to exceed the potential then present across the input circuit of each other of said electronic switch devices, whereby the likelihood of such shorter duration pulse causing a control potential larger than said threshold value is substantially diminished.
6. In integrated circuitry built upon a common substrate and having a plurality of conductors for parallelly applied pulse signals, a transient suppressor comprising:
a plurality of lateral structure transistors having joined bases and joined collectors, said transistors having respective emitter electrodes connected to respective ones of said conductors where transient current pulses may occur which transient pulses are short-lived as compared to said pulse signals and the combined base-to-substrate capacitances of the transistors being free to integrate such transient current pulses and thereby reduce their amplitudes relative to the amplitudes of said pulse signals.
7. In integrated circuitry built upon a common substrate and having a plurality of conductors for parallelly applied pulse signals, a transient suppressor comprising:
a plurality of transistors having joined base regions and joined collector regions, one type of said regions being disposed upon said substrate and having the other type of regions disposed therewithin, said transistors having respective emitter regions disposed in their base regions to form base-emitter junctions, which emitter regions are ohmically contacted and connected to respective ones of said plurality of conductors where transient pulses short lived as compared to said pulse signals may occur, said base-emitter junctions providing a diode OR gate for selectively connecting such of said plurality of conductors upon which a pulse occurs to the combined base-to-substrate and collector-to-substrate capacitances of said transistors.
The present invention relates to telephone cross-point switching arrays using four-layer semiconductor devices as cross-point elements and, more particularly, to transient suppression circuitry for the trigger circuits of these devices.
Telephone cross-point switch arrays are more and more being constructed in monolithic integrated circuit form. The switching and latching function in such circuits is most feasibly provided by air-isolated semiconductor controlled rectifiers (SCR's) each of which is triggered by a command signal. These command signals are supplied by respective command lines. Each of these lines undesirably tends to have short-lived transients, typically no more than 30 microseconds in duration, coupled to it by stray capacitances. The command signal pulses are of longer duration, at least 100 microseconds.
Low-pass filtering of each of the command lines would suppress the short-lived transients while preserving the larger-duration command signal pulse. The problem is to provide low-pass filtering for each of the command lines which will not take up excessive area on the monolithic integrated circuit die. This problem is solved by connecting the input terminals of a diode OR gate to each of the command lines so the shared capacitance at the output terminal of the OR gate can provide filtering for each of the command lines.
In the drawing, the sole FIGURE is a schematic diagram of a portion of a cross-point array with SCR switching and latching elements, their associated trigger circuitry and the transient suppression circuitry in which the present invention is embodied.
In the interest of brevity and clarity, only two-cross-point switch elements (SCR's 10 and 30) and their associated circuitry are shown in the FIGURE and described in the following detailed description of the invention. However, in actual practice there are customarily several (e.g., eight) cross-point switch elements in each integrated circuit cross-point switch array.
Each of the SCR's 10 and 30 has its cathode connected to a ROW bus 2, of the cross-point switch. The anodes of SCR's 10 and 30 are provided terminals 11 and 31, respectively, for connection to separate COLUMN busses (not shown) of the cross-point switch. Bus 3 is supplied a direct potential, positive with respect to that appearing on ROW bus 2; and bus 4 is supplied a direct potential about the same as the potential appearing on ROW 2. Each SCR may be triggered into conduction by the application of a positive-going pulse of current to its gate electrode (12 or 32), and each thereafter remains conductive until current flow to its anode terminal (11 or 31) is either interrupted or reduced below the SCR holding current.
Terminals 13 and 33 are for connection of command lines to apply a positive-going pulse to SCR 10 or 30, respectively, when that SCR is to be triggered into conduction. For example, a positive-going pulse at terminal 13 is coupled through resistor 14 to the base electrode of an NPN transistor 15, switching it into saturated conduction, and clamping its collector electrode to substantially the same potential as appears on bus 4. Resistor 16 connects the collector electrode of transistor 15 to the interconnected base and collector electrodes of a self-biased PNP transistor 17 having its emitter electrode connected to bus 3. The self-biased transistor maintains a relatively constant offset potential (550 to 700 millivolts for a silicon transistor) across itself by negative collector-to-base feedback. So, for this condition of transistor 15 being biased into saturation, the potential across resistor 16 is about one volt less than that appearing between busses 4 and 3, and the current flow through resistor 16 for this condition has a well-defined value in accordance with Ohm's Law. The base-emitter potential of transistor 17 has the value associated with this current level, and is applied to the serially-connected resistor 18 and base-emitter junction of transistor 19. This biases PNP transistor 19 into conduction, albeit at a substantially lower level of collector current than that of transistors 15 and 17. Transistor 19 can be viewed as a switchable constant current source activated by COMMAND pulses or transients appearing on the COMMAND signal line (not shown) connected to terminal 13.
The collector current of transistor 19 forward biases the emitter-base junction of PNP transistor 20. Transistor 20 is self-biased and functions as a diode to couple the collector electrode of transistor 19 to a bus 5 floating in potential developed by the charge on a capacitance 6. This capacitance 6 could be provided by a specific and separate capacitor structure, that is, by a lumped element. However, the PNP transistor 20 will be of a lateral construction in a monolithic integrated circuit and so will have substantial base-to-substrate capacitance associated therewith. This base-to-substrate capacitance parallelled with those of corresponding elements (e.g. 40) in the triggering circuits of the other cross-point switch elements can provide an adequately large capacitance 6 without need for further, especial capacitor structure. This distributed capacitance is illustrated in the FIGURE by the phantom (dashed line) showing.
In operation, the collector current of transistor 19 charges capacitor 6 via self-biased transistor 20, raising the emitter potential of transistor 20. This raises the potential on bus 5 because of the clamping action of self-biased transistor 20. The raising of potential on bus 5 cuts-off the base-emitter junctions of other self-biased transistors (e.g., 40) connected to bus 5 and prevents the coupling of trigger pulses to the other SCR's (e.g., 30).
When the emitter potential of transistor 20 is raised sufficiently positive, it will overcome the threshold potential offered by the serially-connected avalanche diode 21 and base-emitter junctions of transistors 22 and 23 in Darlington connection 24. This serial connection in effect forms a threshold-potential breakdown device. Current will then flow in this serial connection as base current for transistor 23, applying current to resistor 25 and to gate electrode 12 of SCR 10. The value of this current is constrained to a limit value by resistor 26 when transistor 23 saturates. A level of current flow much lower than this limit value is, however, sufficient to trigger SCR 10 into latching conduction.
Applying a positive pulse to terminal 33 will trigger SCR 30 into latching conduction in an analogous manner, elements 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 and 46 corresponding to elements 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26, respectively.
Now, a short-lived transient pulse of current from the collector electrode of transistor 19 during an interval between command pulses will render self-biased transistor 20 conductive and the capacitance 6 will integrate the transient pulse. Since the pulse is short-lived and the collector current of transistor 19 is constrained to a low level, capacitor 6 will be insufficiently charged to develop a potential thereacross large enough to overcome the threshold potential presented by avalanche diode 21 and the base-emitter junctions of transistors 22 and 23. So, there will be no triggering of SCR 10. Self-biased transistor 40 and capacitance 6 operate similarly to prevent triggering of SCR 30 by transient current pulses from the collector electrode of transistor 39.
Transistors 7 and 8 are connected in a Darlington configuration 9 with base-electrode of transistor 8 being left uncommitted. Darlington configuration 9 accordingly provides a high-resistance leakage path for bleeding off charge accumulated on capacitor 6 during transient pulses. Stray leakage may be sufficient for this purpose in some circuits, in which case the Darlington configuration 9 may be dispensed with.
One may consider self-biased diodes 20 and 40 as diodes in an OR gate configuration. This OR gate configuration permits a single integrating capacitance 6 which is common to the entire array to provide transient immunity to the triggering circuitry of each SCR 10, 30, while at the same time isolating the trigger pulses to one of the SCR's from the other(s). The diodes themselves as self-biased PNP lateral transistors contribute their respective base-to-substrate capacitances, which are parallelled to form an adequately large capacitance 6 without need for separate capacitative structures.
The lateral-structure transistors (20, 40, etc.) may have separate base regions in which case their respective base electrodes and their respective collector electrodes will all be connected by metallization to the floating bus 5. Alternatively, the lateral-structure transistors may share the same base region and, in such case, can use in common a single base electrode. The transistors in such case may also share a common collector region, which would permit the transistors to use in common a single collector electrode. Large threshold potentials to trigger pulses are provided by avalanche diodes 21, 41 to reduce the value of the integrating capacitance necessary to prevent false triggering of the SCR's 10, 30 by transients. The time delay before triggering achievable with this integrated circuit is reasonably uniform and predictable, facilitating mass production of the cross-point switching array.

This article will make your blood boil: "Ron Paul supporters are not Republicans and they should not attend the GOP convention"Submitted by legalizeliberty on Tue, 06/26/2012 - 20:28
....The GOP Convention is a Republican Convention. It is a Mitt Romney Convention.
It is not a Ron Paul or Libertarian Convention.
Therefore, it is perfectly acceptable at this point to ban Ron Paul supporters from the GOP Convention.
That's right. An outright ban on their presence is the only way to prevent the event from turning into a debacle. There is no legitimate reason at this point for them to be there.
- Login to post comments
I'm not surprised
by this. I just wrote a comment in this post
that the so-called Paulfest people made a huge mistake by inviting GJ. OPTICS, PEOPLE!!! Doesn't anyone understand OPTICS??
If you think the neocons can understand how anyone supporting a Republican can suddenly jump ship for a Libertarian candidate, you are truly naive.
I'm not happy with the GOP, either - I'm actually quite disgusted with them - but Ron Paul has been urging us to get ourselves to BE the GOP so we can reverse its destructive course. He, better than any of us, understands that America will remain a 2-party system for a very, very long time (if America survives) and we have the power to effect that change. Dr Paul has worked tirelessly for over 30 years and never becomes discouraged. He believes in his message, and so do I.
If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.
James Madison
I agree
I am no longer a Republican after being a Republican all my life and Im nearly sixty now Up your GOP im done with your liars theives and warmongers, but I am a Individual who gets to choose. Unless the Republican party has become some top down BUSH dictatorship.
A Republican is a person
A Republican is a person registered to vote as a Republican. A Libertarian is someone registered to vote as a Libertarian. But they're counting on their idiot readers to believe otherwise. They want their base to think that Ron Paul supporters are just LP double agents... or something.
Do Not Read the Article
This douchebag, Eric Golub, writes about Ron Paul all the time. He constantly lies about him and bashes him. Know why? It's the only thing he can write about that gets any page views. Washington Times Communities pays folks to write if their articles get views. This douchebag's articles go to the top of Google searches about Ron Paul every time and we click on the link and fall for it. We're paying this guy to trash Dr. Paul!!! Stop it now!!! Don't click on the link. Instead, sign up to write for Washington Times Communities and write positive articles about our cause.
I agree...
Do NOT click the link. And if the poster of this thread has respect for Dr. Pauls campaign, he would REMOVE the link and erase the entire thread altogether...LL, It's one thing to create a thread a couple weeks ago (which according to some longtime users here, seems to be something you've done in the past trying to garner attention) stating "this might be my last time posting on the dailypaul", and then to start posting pro Gary Johnson threads almost every day since then, but what your doing with these types of threads, I have a very bad gut feeling about what your intentions are. You should be ashamed of yourself, as you are intentionally trying to "stir a pot"..You're disregard for the candidacy of Dr. Paul is becoming VERY annoying, and I must say, I'm VERY glad that you are no longer a moderator for the DailyPaul. I can only imagine why you lost the privelege.
De criminalize Liberty!
no point in reading
After a little time at this, I have learned to just completely ignore any media outlets. Let them die the slow death. Even non-paul people are getting it. Just because people are not supporting ron paul to the fullest doesn't mean they are dumb. There is a swell of people that are fed up with mainstream anything...I love it.
Trampling on the First Ammendment sir-

I guess you want that 8.5 billion dollar ponzi scheme problem to blow up in September or October. This article reeks of tyranny. Screw you.

the article states that we "are not Republican", when Mitt Romney and the rest of the neo cons aren't Republican! I thought Republicans believed in small government and fiscal responsibility. The neo "conservatives" are the ones who "took over" the party with their liberal agenda.

I believe it can be done.

...(has been compared to a Carl Rove) may well be helping orchestrate the Gary Johnson campaign. Do some internet reading and a lot becomes clear.
Reminds me of years ago when my Mom worked for the 7-11 Sanford Corp. conglomerate. There was a real problem with 7-11s getting robbed. So they hired (once he got out of jail) one of the most successful 7-11 robbers to tell them how not to get robbed. He said robbing a 7-11 was like taking candy from a baby. They may scream...but it is easy to get the candy.
Yes it will get worse. Paulfest might be called StoneZone now. Mr. Ashman recently said that it was his understanding that when Gary flew to Houston to ask for Ron Paul's blessing, he practically threw him out. Ron Paul seldom gets angry. Makes you wonder what was said and what Ron Paul knows.
Is Stone in it to help Gary...or Romney? Does Gary even know Stone's real goals. One thing is for certain...every dirty trick imaginable is being used to pull Ron Paul supporters over to Gary and the real dirty politics are just beginning.
Republican Party Didn't Want Gary Johnson or Ron Paul
Gary Johnson has nothing to do with the Republican Party not wanting Ron Paul supporters to attend its convention. The Republican Party didn't want Gary Johnson either.
All of the above
And all above that too.

"Mitt Romney Resigns!"
"Mitt Romney announced today he will no
longer seek the Republican nomination. Instead, he pledged his full support to
Dr. Ron Paul, who he trusts implicitly to be the only viable candidate to
defeat Barrack Obama," said a Romney spokesperson.
Mr. Romney's spokesperson continued saying, " Mr. Romney
is making the ultimate sacrifice, for the good of the Nation, so wants to be
remembered as the one that helped America be rid of Obama…as such Mr. Romney is
a true patriot…".
Questioned as to the real reasons Mitt Romney quit — the
spokesperson said, "He only wants to be remembered as the Patriot that Saved
America… that is his only reason"….and "…none of the below were a factor in his
decision"…as claimed:
"That so many videos have been taped showing fraud on his
behalf that TV mini-series could be made running for weeks,
Or, that he can't get 100 people to attend his meetings, while Ron Paul gathers
Real Americans in the several thousands,
Or, that he has broken rule #11 in collusion with the GOP, so he is about to be
removed from many states ballots,
Or, that his shadowy party in Nevada, is further grounds for his removal as a
GOP candidate,
Or, that he cannot garner enough delegates with all the cheating done on his
behalf so far,
Or, that All National Delegates are NOT bound according to rule #38, and US
election law, in Tampa,
Or, that his eventual loss to Ron Paul in Tampa will make him a national joke,
Or, that even if manages to CHEAT his way out of Tampa, his guaranteed loss to
Obama will make him an even Bigger Joke…".
No, none of these are factors, according to Mitt Romney's
spokesperson — "Mr. Romney quit the race today because he is a Patriot!"
And I agree, Mitt did the right thing — and we shall
build monuments and name schools after him!

I am proud to be part of a movement comprised of intelligent impassioned people. There is hope as long as this movement keeps going. Thank God for evolution, and revolution.
Is this not true? Tell me if I am wrong.
Federal law allows each delegate to vote according to their conscience, and not because of some rule binding them to vote for "the nominee". It would appear that all candidates will start with zero votes and the delegates will vote for the nominee in Tampa. For now, there is no the nominee.
Ron Paul for President.

2 oz strisslespalt (20 min)
1 lb Turbinado sugar (15 min)
1.5 oz coriander seed crushed (5 min)
2 oz orange zest (5 min)
1 oz strisslespalt (5 min)
Dash of Grains of Paradise (5 min)
very generic mash, 156 for 60 minutes
cool and pitch with Wyeast #3787 (Trappist high gravity)
The Quinoa (a complete protein on its own) inclusion makes this a hard beer to get clear, especially when cold.
I have been on here for a year or so and this is the first recipe I have posted. After a few iterations, I think that it is ready. The European malt is a must. Also, I have to add that this recipe started out as a variation of BeirMuncher's SWIMBO Slayer and has evolved into it's own thing. I may try and up the Quinoa in the future but this one has hit the sweet spot in my book.

"Great location no service"
23rd September 2013, wathara, sydney
The design of the building is painful. Getting to our room was a trek. There was no help and the desk staff kept us waiting. For the price the service was very average. Its great location, shame about the serviceView management response »
Management responseDear wathara,Thank you for your feedback after your family's recent stay with us, and I would like to offer my apologies that you found our service not up to the standard of the location. We appreciate that our hotel wraps around the Claisebrook Cove and does have rooms across two areas, so rooms on the other side are not always as convenient. I will certainly be addressing the lack of assistance provided by our team.Please rest assured that this is not the norm, and we hope that we may have an opportunity to welcome you back and ensure a delightful return stay with us.Thank you again and best regards,Bianca BoultbeeGeneral ManagerThe Sebel Residence East Perth

Tam Hancock brings authentic Southeast Asian cuisine to this downtown Biddeford gem. Not fancy--just great food at reasonable prices. Fantastic appetizers. My family are regulars, and we sometimes order take-out, but it's so much better hot out of the kitchen!
I'm a regular customer at this restaurant because the Pho (traditional Vietnamese noodle soup) is delicious. I have tried Pho in many cities and countries and this restaurant is high on my list for this delicacy. The large bowl is a very generous portion and the flavors are simply exquisite.

Que Huong is a really sweet little find in Biddeford. We go for the Pho but I've tried other dishes here and I've never had anything I didn't like.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Governor Fallin today signed into law landmark corrections reform legislation. The governor was joined by House Speaker Kris Steele, Department of Corrections Director Justin Jones and other state leaders. House Bill 2131, authored by Steele, is designed to relieve widespread fiscal and social strains caused by Oklahoma's nation-leading incarceration rates.
"This bill is about being smart on crime as well as tough on crime," Fallin said. "The reforms we are signing into law will not only save taxpayer dollars, they'll help to address some of the social problems that continue to drag down the quality of life in our otherwise great state. By pursuing responsible community sentencing options that allow non-violent offenders – many of whom have substance abuse problems – to receive treatment and safely reintegrate into their communities, we can help to break a cycle of poverty, drug abuse and crime that has inflated our incarceration rates and hurt Oklahoma communities and families."
Steele, who authored the bill, said the reforms would save money and make Oklahoma safer.
"HB 2131 will save money, produce better outcomes and increase public safety," Steele said. "We cannot afford to continue on the current path with our incarceration policies. This bill shows we are serious about changing course to be smarter on crime. With the reforms in this bill, we can be more efficient with tax dollars and have more success. It's a win-win situation."
HB 2131 has three key proposals:
Community sentencing is significantly less expensive than traditional incarceration. States such as Texas, Indiana and Kansas have seen dramatic cost savings and reductions in crime rates by adopting community sentencing policies like those proposed in HB 2131.
In Oklahoma, it costs about $56 a day to incarcerate someone. By comparison, it costs about $3.50 a day to send an offender to supervised community sentencing.
HB 2131 also calls for increased use of Global Positioning System (GPS) monitoring of offenders. GPS monitoring costs about $4.75 per day. Releasing nonviolent offenders under GPS monitoring improves public safety and helps the offender reintegrate into society in a positive way, according to a study by the Pew Research Center.
Overall, the bill is expected to save the Department of Corrections at least $5 million a year. Oklahoma's prisons are at 96 percent capacity, but staffing levels at the Department of Corrections are at 69 percent of authorized levels.
Many community sentencing programs provide treatment for substance abuse and teach offenders vocational and relationship skills.
Under HB 2131, decisions made by the Pardon and Parole Board on paroles for most nonviolent offenders will be honored if the governor does not act on that parole within 30 days after receipt.
The governor would still be required to act on all paroles for violent offenders and could act on any nonviolent parole matter if she chose to do so.
HB 2131 proposes specific qualification requirements for Pardon and Parole Board members. There are currently no requirements.
This bill becomes effective November 1, 2011.
