PARTYNEXTDOOR - Recognize
Artist: PARTYNEXTDOOR
Featuring: Drake
Producer: PARTYNEXTDOOR
Album: PARTYNEXTDOOR TWO
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 19 votes )
UPDATE: We've added the Liam MacRae-directed visuals for PND's Recognize single.
One year and two weeks ago, PARTYNEXTDOOR released his self-titled independent debut. Today, we have received word that the OVO signee is excitedly preparing to release his second independent release later this month. Kicking off the new campaign, on the heels of the well-received Her Way, is Recognize. With an assist from his label boss Drake, who wants to know "who you f**k in the city when I'm not there?," this self-produced alt-R&B/kinda bedroom banger is exactly what fans have come to expect from the native of Mississauga, Canada. The appropriately-titled PARTYNEXTDOOR Two is slated for release on Tuesday, July 29.

The program focused on increasing access to HIV counseling and testing services for pregnant women, improving antenatal care services, increasing access to prophylactic antiretroviral (ARV) drugs for HIV-positive mothers and HIV-exposed infants, promoting early diagnosis and treatment of opportunistic infections, and providing nutritional support and counseling on infant diagnosis.
With long-term support from CDC, this project worked in 262 sites, ensuring the universal provision of high-quality PMTCT services in Government of Kenya facilities. The project was also committed to creating a supportive environment for PMTCT plus services through more community and male partner involvement in HIV prevention, care, and support.

Product description
Dorothy Forrest is immersed in the sensory world around her; she lives in the flickering moment. From the age of seven, when her odd, disenfranchised family moves from New York City to the wide skies of New Zealand, to the very end of her life, this is her great gift and possible misfortune. Through the wilderness of a commune to falling in love to early marriage and motherhood; from the glorious anguish of parenting to the loss of everything worked for and the unexpected return of love, Dorothy is swept along by time. Her family looms and recedes, revelations come to light, death changes everything, but somehow, life remains as potent as it ever was, and the joy in just "being "won't let her go. In a narrative that shifts and moves, growing as wild as the characters, "The Forrests "is an extraordinary literary achievement.

@TECHREPORT{Pollitt98thekey, author = {A Steven Pollitt}, title = {The key role of classification and indexing in view-based searching}, institution = {}, year = {1998}}
The application of classification schemes and thesauri to improve online information retrieval can be traced back to the beginnings of online searching itself, but the true potential for using knowledge structures in the user interface has yet to be realized. View-based searching seeks to exploit the classified arrangements in thesauri and existing classification schemes to improve the performance of such systems. HIBROWSE for EMBASE is a system which demonstrates the power of applying an approach to information retrieval which is strongly related to faceted classification. It does this by employing a point and click user interface with mutually constraining views utilising knowledge structure hierarchies for both query specification and the presentation of results. The relevance of this approach to library OPACs is discussed in the context of the digital library, concluding that our legacy of research in classification and indexing is more relevant than ever in the design of systems to cope with the problems of information access. 1.

'Go beyond sci-fi, action; make romance, drama in 3D'
Radhika Bhirani
[ Fri, Jul 19, 2013 ]
New Delhi, July 19 (IANS) The impact of a drama or romantic tale told on celluloid can be enhanced many notches if presented in 3D in the sci-fi, fantasy and action genres, says an industry expert, citing the example of Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby".
The 3D technology, which creates an illusion of depth in a shot, is currently being exploited only by limited genres, says Merzin Tavaria, co-founder and chief creative director of Prime Focus, a visual effects and 3D conversion services provider.
"3D is being used (primarily) for big budget, sci-fi, action and superhero films because those are the ones that are exploiting it more. I'd like it to be used in romantic movies and drama-based movies because then, you can take the audiences into a more immersive experience," Tavaria told IANS in an interview.
"Everything is not about gimmicks and something popping out of the screen, but also about taking the audiences into the world (of the film). That's just a different way of looking at it. Even 'The Great Gatsby' isn't an action film, but still is stereoscopic," added Tavaria.
The 3D trend in India was said to be started by 1984 Malayalam movie "My Dear Kuttichathan". Fourteen years later, its dubbed Hindi version, "Chhota Chetan", came out.
The investment in 3D films varies - if "Ra.One" had an inflated budget of Rs.150 crore, the country's first stereoscopic 3D movie "Haunted" was shot for a meagre Rs.13 crore. In comparison, the money spent of Hollywood's 3D extravaganza "Avatar" was humongous - the makers splurged $224 million (Rs.1,100) crore on it.
The scope of creativity in 3D is immense.
"It is (thought to be) restricted maybe because there are only that many movies which are structured (around 3D). But it is not restricted or limited by anything. It's just that those (sci-fi and action) are the kind of films that have been going on...like 'Star Trek' and 'World War Z'," Tavaria added.
In the west, the 3D format is in a resurgence phase, courtesy movies like "Journey to the Center of the Earth", "TRON: Legacy" and "Avatar".
In India, too, it is only "a matter of time" before the trend catches up, said Tavaria, whose earliest memory of watching a 3D movie is "Chhota Chetan".
The process has, however, already acquired pace with movies like "Bhoot Returns", "Dangerous Ishhq", "Raaz 3D", "Ra.One", "Haunted - 3D" and "ABCD: AnyBody Can Dance", even though "it is not as much as one would've liked", the expert said.
Continued on next page...
"There's been a lot of interest and discussions with good filmmakers, but sometimes it is touch and go. 'Ra.One' came very close to not happening (in 3D)...," he added.
What's impeding Indian filmmakers from wholeheartedly embracing 3D?
"Sometimes leaving the decision to later, or when it's not planned initially and there's not enough time, doubts whether audiences will go to watch a 3D film or not. But it is a matter of time... If it is adopted by two or three known filmmakers, everybody will just jump on to it," said Tavaria.
Besides, there has to be ample allocation of time and budget to deliver a decent 3D project. Shooting a film in 3D can be more time- and focus-consuming as opposed to converting a project into the format.
"When you're converting a film in 3D, you have the luxury of sitting in an air-conditioned place and only focussing on the 3D - you're not focussing on your actor or making sure you're doing enough number of shots in a day and not focussing on if you get a shot wrong in 3D.
"There are too many things already while making a big budget film that it's just not worth to start diverting. So whatever you can do later, it is just better to leave it for later and that's where conversion comes in to help," Tavaria added.
One of the upcoming 3D dramas is "Kamasutra 3D".

Off and on over the next several years, I looked into Polk's war record. I enlisted the help of several historians who specialized in World War II aviation as well as some able archivists including Gibson Smith, the preeminent expert on the records of the Bureau of Aeronautics. We found that the Navy gave Polk a direct commission as an ensign in the naval reserve in February 1942 at the age of 29. According to Polk's personnel records, he never took any Navy flight training. After Pearl Harbor, the Navy awarded its coveted "wings" only to men who successfully completed an arduous, nearly year-long process. Polk's specialty classification was "A-V(S)," Aviation Volunteer Specialist. The category, borrowed from the British, was created to fill the need for ground officers assigned to aviation units to provide administration and support functions--exactly Polk's role with his unit at Guadalcanal, known as "Cub-1."
I wrote to George Polk's surviving brother, William. He responded, insisting that George had indeed been a decorated fighter pilot. By way of proof, he transcribed two documents. One was a January 1945 letter from the Navy Department's Bureau of Aeronautics to George Polk. The letter officially credited Polk with shooting down a "Val" dive bomber on September 28, 1942, while flying with a "Marine fighter squadron," and the destruction of another "Val" on October 14 while "operating with a Marine dive bomber squadron." The letter further credited Polk with the probable destruction of a "Zero" on December 14, while operating with an "air rescue-night flying squadron." The other document is the citation for a Purple Heart awarded to Polk by a Marine general either on September 23, 1942, or for events occurring on that date; the text is not clear.
At the National Archives, an expert archivist examined the transcription of the purported letter from the Bureau of Aeronautics. He immediately demonstrated to me that the distinctive filing designator on the document (a form of bureaucratic DNA) was patently fictitious. Further, another renowned expert on Navy and Marine "victory claims" pointed out that in the many thousands of documents he had reviewed, he could not recall one that failed to identify the claimant's specific unit, not some generic "Marine fighter squadron." American records for September 28 and October 14, 1942, contain no mention of George Polk. The Japanese records of aerial combat on those dates show no "Vals" anywhere near Guadalcanal.
The Purple Heart Medal citation purports to relate to injuries received while Polk was attempting to take off in an aircraft during a Japanese bombing attack. But the date of the incident falls within a two-week interval when there was no Japanese bombing attack on Guadalcanal. Moreover, the Navy Department did not authorize awards of the Purple Heart Medal until December 1942. The purported citation reads like a valor award, whereas a valid Purple Heart citation simply lists the individual's name, rank, unit, and the date and place of injury. Whether you were performing mundane or heroic service at the time of the injury is irrelevant. Plus, the "citation" misspells the name of "Major General A.A. Vandergrift, USMC." (The correct spelling is Vandegrift, without the extra "r." Of course, it is possible that this common misspelling was introduced by William Polk in transcribing the document.)
For those who find these arcane details incomprehensible or unconvincing, there is a simple and utterly compelling pointer to the truth: George Polk. The 20-plus page transcript of a talk Polk delivered at the Bureau of Aeronautics in August 1943 about his experiences at Guadalcanal and Tulagi contains no reference to any combat flights as a fighter or bomber pilot. But what completely devastates Polk's later stories of aerial combat feats and the purported documentary support is a statement he gave to a naval oral history program on February 2, 1944. There he flatly declared of his duties on Guadalcanal: "I was not flying at this time because my job was aviation engineering officer of Henderson Field." If he was not flying from Guadalcanal, he could not possibly have flown combat missions in a fighter or a bomber--or been wounded while trying to take off in an aircraft.

With all due respect, I don't think this is a solution that will satisfy many people... I would be much less motivated to enter a contest involving creativity if I knew it would be a lottery. I just think future contests should be filtered for the rules before judging, really... Seems pretty simple. If it's random, people will simply complain there was no creative thought involved, and that they should have won because of that!
Of course, people will always complain on the internet, ESPECIALLY trekkies
I think you folks dropped the ball a bit on this one, but instead of making the contests random and therefore not very meaningful (you might as well just pick a random username at that point, forget the contest), why not just learn from this one and make the next one clearer?

U.S. Lawmakers Eye EV Taxes, Fees as Gas Tax Revenue Drops on Fuel Efficiency Gains

American lawmakers can't make up their mind about how best to meddle in the market
Gas taxes
have long been a stable source of revenue for states. In Feb. 1919 Oregon introduced
the first gas tax
-- $0.039 USD/gallon ($0.53 USD/gallon in 2014 dollars). Since then, every other state has jumped onboard. Average rates have remained relatively unchanged, at around $0.315 USD/gallon, on average (state only). At the federal level a smaller gas tax accounts for $25B USD in revenue -- 60 percent of which goes to federal highways, and 40 percent of which goes to federal budget earmarks (a notorious source of corruption). The federal government in 1993 raised this tax to $0.184 USD/gallon in an effort to balance the budget and
boost fuel efficiency
Today you wind up paying, on average, roughly half a dollar in taxes to your state and federal government per gallon of fuel you buy.
But the federal government is worried. After
pushing so hard with ambitious Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard
, the government is now wondering if it went to far, as
soaring fuel economy
sinks state tax revenues.
Vehicles like the Ford Fiesta can average 45 mpg on the highway even without hybrid tech
Kristina Egan, the director of
Transportation for Massachusetts
, is among those concerned. Her group promotes
large public transit projects
, which are highly dependent on state and federal dollars. She comments:
We are going to continue to rely on the gas tax for quite a while to maintain the safety of our roads and bridges. But it is really important for us to start exploring sources to supplement the gas tax as cars become more fuel-efficient.
Between this year and 2040, annual sales of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), and battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are expected to double in the New England area, according to projections by the
U.S. Energy Information Administration
The effects of that increase have already been felt. A Dec. 2013 report by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) brought bittersweet news. Between 2004 and 2012, high oil prices and federal regulation helped to increase the average fuel economy of American vehicles by
22 percent
. The downside, of course, is that effectively amounts to a 22 percent decline in tax revenue.

Jeffrey Mullan, a former Obama administration Secretary of the
U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT) between 2009 and 2012, says that states are eyeing tolls to restore revenues. He comments:
We need to develop a new proxy, and for me, the easiest and most useful option — and the one users are more familiar with — is tolling. I predict we will see more tolling as a solution — partly because people are familiar with it, but also because states are beginning to take matters into their own hands. They're relying less on federal resources to finance their own programs.
The Massachusetts and Chicago turnpikes are among the most highly trafficked highways to feature high tolls. While critics fear that increasing tolls and rolling back restrictions on interstate tolling could raise the cost of products -- due to higher truck delivery costs -- the movement has some high-profile backers. Last month, President Barack Obama
joined the list of supporters
for rolling back federal restrictions on interstate tolling.
If tolling is the Democratic National Party's answer to falling gas tax revenues, fees on EVs and hybrids is another prospect being explored by the Republican National Party. Massachusetts
State Rep. Bradley H. Jones, Jr.
(R), introduced an amendment to a bill which would have
charged an additional $100 USD registration fee
[PDF] on electric vehicles. The amendment was struck down, as even Rep. Jones' party colleagues were skittish about appearing to punitive towards "green" vehicles in an election year.
Some have called for taking on extra fees for electric vehicles like the Tesla Model S
Rep. Jones defends the plan, though, calling it a natural development, explaining:
That person who switches to an all-electronic vehicle, they're paying nothing for the benefit of the upkeep, maintenance, and filling of potholes on the roads. The issue is really one of equity. Eventually, you've got to have that discussion. If everybody ultimately switches over to electric cars, what would you do?
Barbara Anderson, the executive director of Marblehead, Mass. advocacy
Citizens for Limited Taxation
, was moderately supportive of the idea despite the fact that it represented more regulation and fees -- something her group typically opposes. She states:
I think there's a balance you have to strike. We want to have an incentive for people to buy cleaner cars. But we don't want that incentive to be so much that only people who are using gas are paying for roads and bridges.
Some states are going for a more overt option --
simply increasing gas taxes
. But that raises the risk of a backlash. In Massachusetts, the gas tax was raised for the first time in two decades from $0.21 USD/gallon to $0.24 USD/gallon. The hike led to much public outcry. Some have advocated scrapping the gas tax entirely. A local petition gathered 100,000 signatures -- enough to put the question on the ballot for Massachusetts' voters this fall. Now Massachusetts state officials have to deal with the possibility that they could soon have no gas taxes, losing what was before the increase a $677M USD revenue source.
[Image Source: Ocala Post]
A final solution that some Republicans and Democrats are considering as a way to "Trojan horse" EV taxes into the system is to
offer mileage taxes
. Such taxes could still target vehicles like hybrids, and could also charge gas vehicles at a high rate, when all the numbers are crunched.
Oregon is on the eve of a trial program
with 5,000 volunteers whose cars will be
GPS-tracked in order to calculate an annual tax bill
. The volunteer test kicks off next year.
Mr. Mullan isn't so sure that idea would work, though. He warns:
The reaction is often, 'Why do I have to pay more? Don't punish me.' New things are difficult to implement, especially when people are just not 100 percent certain of it.
By the sound of it no one can quite agree on how to handle the revenue crisis created by rising fuel economy. Or in other words, this has been another federal edition of "be careful what you wish for."

Here's what you do
Dr. Kenneth Noisewater
Dr. Kenneth Noisewater
1: Stop all raiding of gas tax and other highway revenues, segregate any such income to only road building, maintenance, and related infrastructure.
2: Once that's done, and there isn't enough $$, raise the gas tax.
3: Keep raising the gas tax until you bump up against the Laffer curve, where continued taxing brings _less_ revenue. I would bet this is in the $2-3/gal area.
4: Once you hit the Laffer curve, probably because of economization, upgrades, etc. then levy a per-mile tax that's based on odometer counts, which is comparable to, say, what a 60mpg vehicle would pay in gas tax. That would be over and above the existing gas tax, applied to all vehicles, so that gas vehicles would be double taxed (plus sales tax, depending on state).
Increasing the gas tax and using odometer counts would not require gov tracking devices or additional personnel to administer, the tax would be another fee based on an odometer reading made by the state or those the state authorizes to perform inspections. This would continue to incentivize the migration to newer (safer and more economical) vehicles as well as encourage the poor to take mass transit or carpool since it would make their (likely underinsured) jalopies too expensive to operate. It would also serve to reduce demand for gasoline, thus reducing its base price, as well as reducing the need for foreign intervention and dependency on shitbird regimes.
If it were up to me, I would want to see the price of minimum liability insurance priced into every gallon of gas, over and above road tax. That would mean no more uninsured drivers, and folks would pay for only the insurance they need: why should someone who drives 5000mi per year pay the same as someone who drives 20000mi per year? The risk profiles are certainly different. Comprehensive, Collision, additional coverage etc. would still be available, and the minimum liability would be bid out as a massive 'assigned risk' pool, with per-gallon tax adjusted annually as appropriate.

is THAT general then we do not have a medical problem
we have an economy problem.
How many of us could buy fantastic insurance if we got to keep ALL our money??
I guess you really need to
I guess you really need to include the entire sentence for it to make sense, not just the words, "general welfare"...
"The Congress shall have Power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States."
From this web page:
Quote: "According to James Madison, the clause authorized Congress to spend money, but only to carry out the powers and duties specifically enumerated in the subsequent clauses of Article I, Section 8, and elsewhere in the Constitution, not to meet the seemingly infinite needs of the general welfare. Alexander Hamilton maintained that the clause granted Congress the power to spend without limitation for the general welfare of the nation. The winner of this debate was not declared for 150 years.
In United States v. Butler, 56 S. Ct. 312, 297 U.S. 1, 80 L. Ed. 477 (1936), the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated a federal agricultural spending program because a specific congressional power over agricultural production appeared nowhere in the Constitution. According to the Court in Butler, the spending program invaded a right reserved to the states by the Tenth Amendment.
Though the Court decided that Butler was consistent with Madison's philosophy of limited federal government, it adopted Hamilton's interpretation of the General Welfare Clause, which gave Congress broad powers to spend federal money. It also established that determination of the general welfare would be left to the discretion of Congress. In its opinion, the Court warned that to challenge a federal expense on the ground that it did not promote the general welfare would "naturally require a showing that by no reasonable possibility can the challenged legislation fall within the wide range of discretion permitted to the Congress." The Court then obliquely confided,"[H]ow great is the extent of that range … we need hardly remark." "[D]espite the breadth of the legislative discretion," the Court continued, "our duty to hear and to render judgment remains." The Court then rendered the federal agricultural spending program at issue invalid under the Tenth Amendment."
Since "health care" is not specifically enumerated in the Constitution, it is NOT a function for the Federal government. It should be struck down. It doesn't matter if the Supreme Court calls it a tax.
Thank you
Really, thank you. I see where you're coming from here and this is compelling constitutionally. I see what you're saying about the whole sentence. It is to provide for the "nation". Not necessarily for the entire populations every need. But to keep a "healthy" state that could defend and retain our freedoms. Right?? Huh huh?? sweet.
Otherwise as I've argued, we'd have to start a food program for all Americans, a federal clothing department and a bureau of house making dudes to create housing and maintain it for all people. Oh wait, food stamps and the housing department. Man, this government thing is really screwed up. Ha.
Even in the case of welfare,
Even in the case of welfare, one can choose to forgo food-stamps, unemployment benefits etc..
In case of obamacare there is no choice. Either you buy insurance or pay extra tax. So Obamacare is not just a tax or a Government-run service. It IS Slavery in its worst form. Rationed health-care is pure evil and completely against the concept of life and survival.
"The general Welfare" is not "Welfare"
Welfare, or any government programs that fit that common definition, are so-named to confuse the actual intent, much like the Patriot Act is uproariously misnamed.
general welfare vs. parochial interests
The modern concept of federal welfare is largely rooted in Franklin Roosevelt's legislation. Today's liberals (also a term that has changed meaning) use the commerce clause and the general welfare clause to justify just about everything. Pretty soon, when they figure it out, they will use Judge Robert's concept of taxation to force purchases of most everything they want but we aren't quite there yet. As Ron Paul noted, why not get rid of the rest of the Constitution since, to some, those first two clauses justify almost everything. Liberals and status quo Republicans tend not to cross check their interpretations of the general welfare clause with other parts of the Constitution such as the 10th Amendment.
I take the term "general welfare" to be the opposite of parochial interests. Parochial interests benefit the few. Legislation is not supposed to be about benefiting the privileged or just the friends of politicians. It is supposed to benefit the entire population.
The Congress shall have Power
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
There are three parties to the US Constitution: The People, The United States Federal Government and The States.
The general welfare clause is specifically applicable to the United States, not to The People.
The clause basically states that the Federal Government can collect various taxes in order to pay debts, provide defense and for the general welfare of the US.
So what, then, is the "welfare" of the United States? That would be the enumerated powers / responsibilities of the United States, specifically.
Therefore, the general welfare clause is intended to authorize Congress to spend money in relation to carrying out the responsibilities & duties that are mandated & authorized to the US Federal Government via our Constitution.
It does not provide the authority to collect taxes to pay for the general welfare of The People. It's to cover costs of the United States government constitutional functions.
Never was it intended to be a taxing mechanism to cover the infinite needs of The People.
Right on
Gotcha, well said! Becoming very clear to me now, I knew I'd find some sharp constitutional minds around these parts!
Best response: Also when you
Best response: Also when you see it in context right after the statement, it list what is considered items of general welfare.
To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;
To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;
To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;
Not only have they abused this with "our" welfare they have used this as an excuse to overreach on many issues.

Because it is not for the GENERAL welfare, but for the specific
welfare of some.
You might want to read the Framer's thoughts on that clause in the Federalist Papers.
If you had, you wouldn't be asking this question.
"General welfare" is a LIMITING phrase, not expansive. The same applies to "Necessary and Proper."
The problem is people who don't understand this point are the ones making the laws and interpreting them.
I'm not sure you'd have an easy time making at case for that. It seems like they are probably claiming that it will be better for all. I agree it isn't, but the "general welfare" is something I've heard the democrats appeal to.
Yes, they appeal to it because if they can trick people into
thinking it benefits "all" then it is in fact for the "general" welfare.
However, repeating it often, doesn't make it so.
The Dems are either lying, or stupid. I'd go with lying for now. (they are stupid, but I'm sure on this point, they know better)
If the bill harms someone, then by definition it isn't for the "general" welfare, as not everyone benefits.
It takes from many and gives to a few, and even the few it gives to, aren't really benefiting in the end.
I'm not trying to make a case for anything. I'm merely stating it how it is.
People can stick their head in the sand if they wish.
We ought not consent to a piece of paper that says the psychopathic megalomaniacs in society will have the legitimate right to steal from us and our children in perpetuity and, in addition, have the final right as unilateral arbitrator in any conflict that should arise.
To do so would be insane.
While I agree with what you just said, I'm not sure how it relates to my question.
The words "general welfare"
The words "general welfare" appear in the first sentence of the Constitution.
"We the people... in order to promote the general welfare...establish this constitution."
It explains why the Constitution was written.
The place where the people delegate limited powers to the Congress is in Article I, Section 8. There is a list of the only 20 powers Congress has been granted by the people. There are no powers delegated which are related to the provision of healthcare.
The Bill of Rights are a list of further restrictions on those 20 powers. If you read the preamble to the Bill of Rights it will tell you so. (The BOR are not a list of rights granted to the people).
The BOR say things like: "Congress shall make no law...", "...shall not be infringed", "...shall not be violated" which makes clear that it is the people telling the federal government what they cannot do.
18 powers. Please do not invent more.
Thank you
Thanks, good information. General welfare is also mentioned in the Article two and section 8. Can you elaborate on this section as well. I do feel I need bit more exposition.
Article 1, Section 8
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States
You're right, I wasn't aware of that clause. Actually this does seem to me to be a delegated power. This is another reason why the Constitution needs to be repudiated. farmer is correct. Only 39 people signed it, so it's a contract between them and the government. But they're dead now.
Well it is and isn't
I'm not sure that it can stretch as far as health care. That's why I'm wondering. It could be the case if this is true that since food is necessary to survive, the government must supply us all the food we want to eat. People are starving everyday. So we need socialized fooding. See what I'm saying. Health care is sooooo basic to our everyday lives I'm not sure it can be injected here. It's like shelter or food, it's needed to survive, sort of. Ha.
Since it is written in English...
..it's fairly easy to parse.
It's a compound statement that includes the restrictive clause "to...provide for the...general welfare." Taking each delegated authority in turn, one could rephrase it thus:
"Congress shall have power to kill kittens and puppies to provide for the general welfare", but would have NO authority to kill puppies and kittens for any other purpose.

Not sure
Not sure you're making a case here against socialized health care. I'd like to understand if you are. Thanks.
Wasn't make any such case
I was making a plea for reading and speaking English.

I'm not sure
I'm not sure anyone was having difficulty with English. I was looking to see if in the context of the whole document, not just this particular area of the document anyone could make a case (other than the free market case, the fact that we're in debt case, the fact that we're already heavily taxed) from the constitution against socialized health care. The small passage above is clear, I'm just looking to find out if there are any people who can create a constitutional case.
Well I'm glad you found it even though I boneheadly said Article 2. Ha. I'm not convinced that this would allow for socialized healthcare, but I thought I would ask and see what people thought. I'd like to hear Ron Paul talk about this.
The words "We the people..." are fraudulent. "We the people" did not do anything. Some elites wrote those words to trick individual people and have been quite successful in their fraud. "We the people" did not delegate any powers. Certain people wrote down a list of powers they were claiming...among them the power to tax (i.e., "We now have the legitimate right to steal from you and your children in perpetuity.") and a list of promises, which anyone who is not totally brain dead would observe were selectively violated from the very beginning and have been perpetually violated in greater and greater degree ever since.
It is up to us now to make a responsible decision and practically withdraw consent from a presumptuous (and ridiculous) idea to which we never could have consented in the first place. Think about it: I consent to be governed by others, i.e., I voluntarily give my permission for you to force me to do things that I do not agree to do voluntarily. And I fully agree that if I do not do those things which I do not agree to do, then it will be legitimate for you to kill me. This is utter nonsense.
Your so far out in lala land that it is getting tiresome.
I try and try, but I cannot squeeze an ounce of practicality from anything you write.
There is NO alternative to a Constituional Republic. None of your anarchistic alternatives hold water.
You may rant all you want about natural rights, but this is a world of force and killing and power. The only way to have pratical freedom is to enshirne it in law and defend it with bayonette.
What good does whining how "one man may not govern another" do when that "one man" already has his boot on your face.
These are terrible times. We need to restore, perhaps even perfect the Constitution, not defame it. ALL of its shortcomings are the product of treason. That must be delt with. And we will not deal with it by distractions like this.
It's really quite amusing that someone with a screen name related to the circus of college football presumes to make a comment about something being a distraction.
Here's a practical suggestion: Work toward the redirection of useful resources from playing with balls to something that can increase the level of liberty in society.
"As to the species of exercise, I advise the gun. While this gives [only] moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise, and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun, therefore, be the constant companion to your walks."
-- Thomas Jefferson, writing to his teenaged nephew.
(Practical advice from Thomas Jefferson)
Thanks for the advice.
I will keep it in mind.

"I absolutely LOVE this card, the quality is great and the colors are vibrant. Unfortunately I was in such a hurry to order that I didn't realize I had a spelling mistake :("
"This is a gorgeous card. I like the "frozen" look to it. The snowflake cut-outs are amazingly crisp and clean. The layer of blue on the left side is much more subtle than it appears on the screen. I actually wish it was light blue all throughout instead of the yellow-ish beige-y tint on the right side. I also would've enjoyed the option to add a picture with caption on the backside. Overall though, this has to be my favorite card design, possibly ever."
"Really enjoyed the mention of Chanukah, too. We put our three fur kids in the smaller pics, and one of us in the large spot. Ordered this with the pearlescent finish--turned out pretty!"
"Easy to customize, high-quality card, thick paper and Tiny Prints kept me informed with emails every step of the way! Fast delivery. Very pleased!"
"Tiny prints provided outstanding customer service to slightly modify my photo so that the MERRY text did not cut of anyones head or santa hats, they also modified the background color to match the picture. The cardstock is a little thinner than anticipated. Visual result - outstanding."

The only other Delbert McClinton album is own is "Room to Breathe." A good CD, yes; this one, though, really got me hooked.
