2 Dogs Killed by Bees at Arizona Home
TUCSON, Ariz. -- A bee attack killed two dogs in Tucson. The owner and his roommate say they've never seen bees act this aggressively.
"You can see blood on the wall over here." That's what Lawrence Rios was shocked to see outside his east side home.
Blood from his dogs who desperately tried to escape a vicious swarm of bees.
"They said when they got there they were just covered in bees. I can just imagine what they went through."
Rios and his roommate Robby came home from biking and sensed something was wrong the moment he got out of his truck.
"I seen the bees and I wondered where my dogs were. They wouldn't come. I called for them and everything, they wouldn't come."
Both men walked to the yard but quickly had to turn back.
Rio's roommate Robby DeCesari says, "We were attacked, both ran different directions down the street and they attacked us for maybe 200 feet and we couldn't even come near the house after that and then I had to check on the dogs so I came back."
Rios called 911 for help knowing his dogs needed help.
Tucson firefighters arrived and sprayed foam in the area.
When the bees finally cleared out, they found both dogs unconscious.
"I rushed them to the vet and they were both dead. These were both 100 pound dogs. Big dogs."
Rios adopted Gypsy from Pima Animal Care years ago.
"We went through a lot together and it's really sad. I'm heartbroken. She was my best friend."
He later adopted Atlas to be her companion, not knowing they'd both die together from a bee attack.
"One of my dogs is missing the claws on his paw, he had cut gashes all over his head trying to escape from the backyard to get away from the bees. And the other one was just very swollen."
As for where the bees came from, Rios had no idea a hive was hidden inside the brick wall behind his yard.
Rios says a neighbor sealed the hive and speculates that's what caused the swarm to attack.
"Just leave the bees alone. Call a professional. Let them come out. Because it could be your kid that dies, and not a dog."
It has not been confirmed whether the bees were Africanized honey bees, commonly known as "killer bees."

All Ben Bishop

from Dan Rosen of NHL.com,
Do you feel the fact that you were a Vezina Trophy finalist last season means you're a proven goalie in the NHL, or are you still of the mindset that you have to prove yourself the way you've had to your entire career?
"I think I proved to myself and other players that I can play at that level, but I think every year you're trying to go out and prove yourself. You're never going to be satisfied with the past year, you're always trying to build on it. I'm going to approach the year the same way, the way I have the last three years at least. I'm going to go in, win the job out of training camp. You always have people competing for jobs. When I was in St. Louis I was trying to take people's jobs and make the team. You always have that competition. So I have to go into camp the same way I have been doing the last couple of years. I'm not going to change anything. I'm not going to try to do anything different."
But can you treat this training camp the same way when it's obviously different for you to know that you're heading into the season as the unquestioned No. 1 goalie on a team expected to win? This is a first for you.
"Yeah, I mean, if you word it like that it's a first, but personally the way I prepare and the way I play, there hasn't been a change from when I was a backup, or when I was able to start in Ottawa for a month, or last year when I was a starter for the season. You still approach every game the same way. Whatever is going on around you as far as expectations, where you are in the standings, if you're first or last, who you're playing against, I still approach the game the same way. There is nothing different. It's the same routine and preparation no matter where I am, if I am a backup in Ottawa or a starter last year. So I don't see there really being any difference going into this season. I think the experience last year will help me even more this year."

A Two-Year Contract Extension For Ben Bishop In Tampa
by Paul on 08/02/14 at 03:32 PM ET
Comments (3)
TAMPA BAY –The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed goaltender Ben Bishop to a two-year contract extension today, vice president and general manager Steve Yzerman announced.
Bishop, 6-foot-7, 214 pounds, posted a 37-14-7 record last season in 63 games. He also recorded a .924 save percentage and a 2.23 goals-against average. He ranked fourth in the NHL for games played and wins, as well as seventh for save percentage and goals-against average. Bishop's five shutouts placed fifth in the NHL and were the second-most ever posted in franchise history. He set Lightning single season records for wins, save percentage and goals-against average. Bishop set the franchise mark for most saves in a game on January 19 at Carolina with 48. His 1,625 saves were the second most in a season by a Lightning goaltender. His successful season led to a nomination for the Vezina Trophy, given annually to the player voted to be the league's best netminder.

Wrist Surgery Up Next For Ben Bishop
by Paul on 04/24/14 at 12:32 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Damian Cristodero of Lightning Strikes,
Lightning goaltender Ben Bishop will have surgery on his injured right wrist next week to repair ligament damage that has bothered him since January. Bishop will have the surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. He said he will be in a cast for six weeks.
Total rehab time is three to four months, though he said he is confident he will be ready for the start of training camp.
Additionally, Bishop finally confirmed he had a left elbow injury that kept him out of the playoffs, saying the joint was dislocated when he extended and fell catching a floating puck April 8 against the Maple Leafs.
He said had the Eastern Conference quarterfinal against the Canadiens been extended, he likely would have played Game 6.
"We were laughing about it because as a goalie how do you hurt your wrist or your elbow?" Bishop said. "Usually it's the groin or something in the lower body."

TAMPA BAY – The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed goaltender Ben Bishop to a two-year contract extension today, vice president and general manager Steve Yzerman announced.
Bishop, 6-foot-7, 214 pounds, has played in six games with the Lightning after being acquired from the Ottawa Senators at the April 3 trade deadline. He has posted a 2-3-0 record with a .916 save percentage and a 3.21 goals-against average. Bishop made his Bolts debut on April 4 at Carolina, stopping all 45 shots he faced for a shutout. He was the second goalie in franchise history to post a shutout in his Lightning debut (Dwayne Roloson, January 4, 2011) and tied the franchise record for most saves in a shutout (Daren Puppa, November 27, 1995). He has played in a total of 19 games this season with Tampa Bay and Ottawa, recording a 10-8-0 record with a .920 save percentage, 2.68 goals-against average and two shutouts.

Can A Goalie Be Too Big?
by Paul on 03/10/12 at 01:35 PM ET
Comments (1)
from Chris Stevenson of the Ottawa Sun,
Is is possible a goaltender can be too tall? At what point does a big guy just not have the agility to be effective? Ben Bishop of the Ottawa Senators is the tallest goaltender to play in the NHL at 6-foot-7. Talking to scouts, other goaltenders and goaltending coaches, there was concern about the size of a 5-hole on a big goaltender and the fact is, it just takes longer for a taller guy to collapse to the ice and close that 5-hole. Bishop said that's something he has worked on and improved. Senators coach Paul MacLean doesn't think a goaltender can be too big. "I look at (Bishop) and say, 'Where's the net?' That's not a bad thing."

Free Economics Essays - Fiscal policy is the policy of the government with regard to the level of government purchases, the level of transfers, and the tax structure (Dornbusch, R. and Fischer, S, 1990).
The government affects the level of equilibrium income in two separate ways. First, government purchases of goods and services are a component of aggregate demand in US economy. Second, taxes and transfers affect the relation between output and disposable income, hence, income available for household consumption or saving. Since fiscal policy normally influences the size of the actual public sector borrowing requirement (PSBR), changes in PSBR are usually used as an indicator of the government's fiscal stance. The essence of fiscal policy is that it is the means to influence expenditure flows in the economy either directly through expenditure changes or indirectly through tax and transfer changes; such changes in flow magnitudes are seen to be a principal means of controlling the level of aggregate demand (Greenaway D. and Shaw, G.K 1991).
Government purchases and transfer payments act like increases in independent spending in their effects on equilibrium income. A proportional income tax reduces the proportion of each extra dollar of output that is received as disposal income by consumers; and thus has the same effects on equilibrium income as a reduction in the propensity to consume. Changes in government spending and taxes affect the level of income.
Fiscal policy can be used in various different ways. It may be used to try to boost the level of economic activity when the economy is flagging a little. In this case it is called reflationary policy. Reflationary policies are any policies aimed to boost the level of economic activity. These could be either fiscal or monetary policies. For example, a reflationary fiscal policy could be to reduce the level of taxation. This would increase the amount of disposable income people had and encourage them to spend more, therefore increasing output and employment.
Alternatively the economy may be doing a little too well and in need of slowing down. In this case the government through the annual budget implements deflationary policy. Deflationary policies are policies that are aimed to reduce the level of aggregate demand in the economy and therefore slow down the rate of growth of output. This may be necessary because of increasing inflation or a significant balance of payments deficit.
The final use for fiscal policy is as a tool of supply-side policy, supply-side policies are policies that improve the workings of markets. In this way they improve the capacity of the economy to produce and so shift the aggregate supply curve to the right. This should enable the economy to grow in a non-inflationary way. Supply-side policies are usually advocated by classical and Monetarist economists who believe that free market are the most important factor determining economic growth. Supply-side policies may include improving education and training, reducing the power of trade unions, removing regulations and so on.
Sustained economic growth in the US during the second half of the 1990s was accompanied by rising household and corporate indebtedness, together with a widening current account deficit. Financial imbalances often arise during periods of strong economic growth and can be financed by an inflow of foreign capital attracted by profitable investment opportunities. However, if they reflect overly optimistic expectations of future economic performance, any downward revision to expectations could prompt a sudden, sharp adjustment to economic activity.
Fiscal policy can be used to expand aggregate demand and thus raise the equilibrium level of output. Therefore, through use of fiscal policy the US government can affect the level of income, which can subsequently lead to the household indebtedness. All expansionary fiscal policies will raise the interest rates if the quantity of money is unchanged (Dornbusch, R. and Fischer, S, 1990). The tables below summarises the effect of expansionary fiscal policy on output and interest rate. The balance between government policy on countering inflationary pressures by increasing interest rates and countering the raising level of household indebtedness is another. This is a problem for the fairly large section of the population whose mortgages represent a substantial multiple of their income and which were, and probably still are, quite affordable because of low interest rates, but which will become progressively less affordable as interest rates rise.

On the basis of the actual growth in US incomes, whether private wages and salaries or government tax revenues, there would have been, at best, very feeble growth between the onset of recession in 2000 and today. The US savings rate (which determines the pool of domestic funds available for investment), which was 10% at the end of the 1980s, fell to 5% in the mid-1990s, and has averaged around only 2% during the last five years (falling virtually to zero in some recent quarters). Apart from some improvement between 1996 and 2001, the real wages of the majority of workers stagnated for over two decades, and have declined since 2001. That is why consumer demand, which accounts for about 90% of US growth, has grown on the basis of mountains of debt.
"This is the worst government the US has ever had in its more than 200 years of history. It has engaged in extraordinarily irresponsible policies not only in foreign and economic but also in social and environmental policy. This is not normal government policy. ...This is a form of looting." - George A. Akerlof, 2001 Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics referring to the Administration of George W. Bush.
The ratio of household debt to disposable income rose to a record 108% of disposable income at the end of 2003 (16 percentage points above the 2000 level). This was mainly due to mortgage debt, but consumer credit (car loans, credit card debt) was also at record levels. If household debt continued to grow at the 2000-03 rates, the ratio would rise to 152% of disposable income by the end of Bush's second term. However, further rises in interest rates will make the existing burden of debt unsustainable for many households.
The US economy has experienced rapid growth since the second half of 2003 and the expectation now is that the rate of growth will continue indefinitely. However with both the government and private sector so heavily indebted, the rate of growth cannot be maintained without a sustained and discontinuous increase in net export demand. But this will not come about with out a cut in domestic absorption of goods and service by the US, which would impart a deflationary impulse to UK.
It shows that the recent economic expansion in the US was driven by financial imbalances that were allowed to persist much longer, and go much deeper, than the point at which both financial rebalancing and growth could be attained simultaneously and painlessly. An ongoing retrenchment of private sector spending and a growing deficit in the current account are causing an unprecedented large aggregate demand deficiency. Recent trends in financial balances in the US since the 1960 shows that the private balance and the balance of payment are both drawn as surpluses while the government balance is drawn as a deficit (Wynne Godley and Alex Izurieta (2004). The fiscal sector has emerged to partially compensate such leakage by an unusually rapid reversion to deficit (a movement from surplus to deficit equal to five percent of GDP in only two years!). Though this proves --against the consensus view of the last decades-- that fiscal policy matters, but it will not be enough.
A continuation to acceptable and sustainable growth in the U.S. requires both relaxation of the fiscal stance and strengthening of net export demand. However, the latter can no longer be achieved by an adjustment in the real exchange rate alone, since the world economy is contracting. Indeed, preliminary assessments of the U.K. (forthcoming CERF publications) reveal that a similar implosion is here underway. Furthermore, the sluggish performance in the Euro area, exacerbated by the damaging, pro-cyclical implications of the 'Growth and Stability Pact', suggests that stagnation is being allowed to persist here too (Alex Izurieta, 2003).
In the US, the marked acceleration in productivity over recent years suggests that expectations of stronger economic growth in the future are well founded. But the willingness of foreign investors to continue financing the US current account deficit will depend heavily on whether they expect recent relative productivity gains to be sustained. A kind scenario in relation to the unwinding of imbalances would see productivity in other major economies starting to catch up with that in the US, as they also benefit from 'new economy' gains. This would widen investment opportunities, allowing the dollar to adjust which, together with higher US domestic saving, would allow the imbalances in the US economy to unwind in a relatively slow and orderly manner.
An alternative scenario is that recent productivity gains in the US are not sustained, prompting households and firms to revise expectations and rebalance their financial positions more rapidly than anticipated. This could also reduce the supply of foreign capital, prompting a sudden adjustment in the value of the dollar. At the time of the Pre-Budget Report, it was feared that uncertainty surrounding the likely supply-side impact of the events of 11 September might bring about such a scenario. These fears have now largely abated, but there remains a risk that these imbalances will unwind rapidly at some point in the future, prompting financial market instability and presenting risks to global economic prospects.
The synchronised slowdown of growth in the US, Europe and Japan was a major influence on developments in the UK economy during 2001. But, in contrast to previous episodes of faltering global demand and rising economic uncertainty, the platform of low inflation and sound public finances delivered by the Government's new macroeconomic framework enabled policy to sustain stability and growth in the UK.
Annual growth of household consumption has remained stable at around 4 per cent in each of the past six years, with households adjusting saving to cushion the effects of fluctuating income growth on spending. At the same time, growth of household consumption has, on average, exceeded that of real disposable incomes. The persistent relative strength of consumption growth may partly be accounted for by rising housing wealth, but it has also been accompanied by a significant increase in household indebtedness. This may, in part, have reflected lower and more stable inflation and interest rates relative to past experience, which have kept debt servicing costs stable relative to disposable incomes. However, growth in consumption cannot be sustained indefinitely at rates exceeding the trend growth rate of the economy. Households are therefore expected to limit further borrowing over the forecast horizon as they approach desired balance sheet positions (Budget Report - April 2002)
The UK almost certainly reached the £1 trillion level of household indebtedness, which is broadly equivalent to our gross domestic product. Household indebtedness has recently increased annually by approximately 12 per cent, despite having slowed a little from an even higher figure. Much of that has been in the form of mortgage indebtedness or secured lending. According to the latest reckoning, some £818 billion of mortgage debt forms part of the £1 trillion total. Mortgage debt, at around 13 per cent a year, has been growing even faster than overall household indebtedness, although it, too, has slowed slightly.
Source: Budget Report - April 2002
No economy is immune to the impact of the current global slowdown or the events of 11 September. But because the Government has taken tough decisions since 1997 to create a platform of macroeconomic stability, the UK is in a better position than on previous occasions to cope with turbulence in the world economy. The economic challenge is to maintain stable growth through these testing times, while continuing to work to deliver stronger productivity growth and employment opportunity for all. Rising to this challenge is imperative in order to maintain the foundations for meeting the Government's objectives for reducing poverty and delivering high quality public services.
It is evident from the discussions that the UK household indebtedness is not as distressing as the current US position. However, the US indebtedness will pose significant risk to the UK in terms of changes in US government policy in relation to its very growing current account deficit. The fear is that the US government's borrowing would make it difficult for private firms to borrow and invest, and thus would slow the economy's growth. So what potential risk does this pose to UK?
Since Budget 2001, G7 activity and trade have been weaker than expected. For the first time since 1974, there has been a significant and simultaneous slowdown of growth in the US, Europe and Japan. Following the terrorist attacks of 11 September, heightened uncertainty and declining confidence have further weakened demand and delayed the recovery in the major economies. By raising security and insurance costs, the attacks may also have had a negative impact on supply. In the UK, economic growth has remained relatively strong during 2001 despite the weaker external environment.
The UK economy has been affected by the global slowdown. Growths in the UK's major export markets slowed dramatically during 2001. Business investment has fallen, and business confidence, which was already weakening, has deteriorated further since 11 September. The global slowdown also appears to have had a negative impact on consumer confidence.
Satisfactory growth in the medium term cannot be achieved in the US without a large, sustained and discontinuous increase in net export demand (Wynne Godley, Alex Izurieta and Gennaro Zezza (2004). This can only happen with a cut in domestic absorption of goods and services by the US, which would impart a deflationary impulse to the UK. The UK balance of Payment is also at a risk of further budget deficit, as it is dependent on factors outside the control of government, and depends on what private economic agents (including foreigners) decide to do. With full stock/flow accounting respected, the two-country open economy portfolio balance model has just two independent equations for asset market clearing. It can determine home and foreign interest rates but not the exchange rate. If asset market equilibrium varies smoothly over time, the balance of payments equation in the Mundell-Fleming model is not independent and cannot set the exchange rate either (Lance Taylor (2004).
As the capital movements are interest sensitive, as the US looks to increase interest rates to counter inflationary pressures, the UK relative interest rate is too low it affects the current account by stimulating expenditure on imports, and the capital account by encouraging capital to seek more lucrative returns elsewhere. Therefore, a change in the interest rate affects both current account and the capital account of the balance of payments.

Sean Hannity Blasts President Barack Obama in Blistering Monologue … 'It's Time for a Wake-Up Call' … "It Is Time for You to Get Engaged."
Last night Sean Hannity blasted Barack Obama in a blistering monologue begging, asking and demanding that this president 'WAKE UP" and get engaged in the turmoil in both domestic and foreign policy. Much of which Obama has no one to blame but himself. Although he will try and pass the buck. It is becoming evident that Obama is the "Bystander" in Chief and refuses to step up to the plate and lead. But instead Obama attends fundraisers, plays golf and goes on vacation to Martha's Vineyard.
Hannity stated that our world is in an alarming state of emergency, between Israel's ground war into Gaza to protect itself from Hamas, Malaysia flight ML17 blown out of the sky in an unspeakable act killing innocent men, women and children, ISIS on the rise, Al-Qaeda on the move, the Middle East on fire, Russia and Putin flexing its muscles, Obama administration scandals like IRS-gate and Benghazi-gate, and a US domestic policy of out of control national debt and a discouraged work force. Let us not forget the crisis we have on our Southern border caused by Obama's lack of protecting or borders. Then there is that Obamacare thing.
Hannity said, "It is shocking to see a president of the United States, the free world, with such a lack of urgency and priorities. So I say to the president tonight: It is time for action, it's time for urgency. It is time for you to get engaged." Hannity went on to say, "Mr. President for you to stand up. It is time for you to lead. It's time to skip for once your lavish million dollar Marha's Vineyard vacation. It's time for you to put down those golf clubs. I thing 180 rounds of gold is quite enough. It is time for you to lead by example. [...] You need to spend more time in The Oval Office. You need to be in the Situation Room. You may be surprised to learn what has actually happened in the six years since you have become the leader of the free world."
"It is shocking to see a president of the United States, the free world, with such a lack of urgency and priorities," Hannity said. "So I say to the president tonight: It is time for action, it's time for urgency. It is time for you to get engaged."
Hannity then skewered the president over his handling of domestic matters.
"Mr. President, why don't you consider the events of these past 24 hours to be a very, very costly and deadly wake up call," Hannity said. "And while all this was happening yesterday, you spent 40 seconds dealing with the killing of nearly 300 innocent people and for your secretary of state to tell Israel to restrain itself again and again. It's time for a wakeup call.
Nigerian Defense Chief Air Marshal Alex Badeh Says They Have Located the Missing 300 School Girls Abducted by Boko Haram … Fears Use of Force to Free Them Could Get them Killed (VIDEO)
Abducted Nigerian school girls supposedly found …
Nigerian Defense Chief Air Marshal Alex Badeh stated yesterday that the Nigerian military has located the nearly 300 abducted school girls taken by the radical Islamist group Boko Haram. However, he fears that if the military tried to free them, many of the girls could be killed in the process. Badeh made this announcement in front of thousands of protesters in front of the Defense Ministry Headquarters, but did not say anything specific about where the girls are located. The terror Islamist group Boko Haram abducted nearly 300 girls on April 14 from a boarding school in Chibok in northern Nigeria.
Nigeria's military has located nearly 300 school girls abducted by Islamic extremists but fears using force to try to free them could get them killed, the country's chief of defense said Monday.
Air Marshal Alex Badeh told demonstrators supporting the much criticized military that Nigerian troops can save the girls. But he added, "we can't go and kill our girls in the name of trying to get them back."
He spoke to thousands of demonstrators who marched to Defense Ministry headquarters in Abuja, the capital. Many were brought in on buses, indicating it was an organized event.
Asked by reporters where they had found the girls, Badeh refused to elaborate.
"We want our girls back. I can tell you we can do it. Our military can do it. But where they are held, can we go with force?" he asked the crowd.
People roared back, "No!"
"If we go with force what will happen?" Badeh asked.
"They will die," the demonstrators responded.

Hillary Clinton's State Department Refused to Brand Boko Haram as Terrorists … But, Hillary Called the Abduction of the Girls by Boko Haram was "Abominable, It's Criminal, It's an Act of Terrorism"
HOW PRESIDENTIAL … Hillary Clinton, I was for not calling Boko Haram terrorists, before I was for it.
Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has a lot of explaining to do. In the wake of the Muslim Islamist terror group Boko Haram kidnapping nearly 300 girls and threatening to sell them into human sex slavery, Hillary Clinton like many jumped on the bandwagon of outrage. On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton called the abduction of the girls by Boko Haram was "abominable, it's criminal, it's an act of terrorism and it really merits the fullest response possible, first and foremost from the government of Nigeria. Clinton went on to say that as Secretary of State she had numerous meetings with Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan and had urged the Nigerian government to do more on counter-terrorism.
Oh contraire mon frère … Hillary Clinton supposedly urged the Nigerian government to do more on counter-terrorism, but as reported at The Daily Beast, Hillary's State Department refused to brand Boko Haram as terrorists. According to accounts by Josh Rogin, what Hillary Clinton failed to mention was that her own State Department refused to place Boko Haram on the list of foreign terrorist organizations in 2011, after the group bombed the U.N. headquarters in Abuja. The refusal of branding Boko Haram as terrorists came despite the urging of the Justice Department, the FBI, the CIA, and over a dozen senators and congressmen.But of course naming a new group to the terrorist list would have gone against Obama's reelection talking points that al Qaeda was on the run.
As the folks at Hot Air opines,"Sound familiar? … Now Hillary wants to fight Boko Haram with hashtags. Too bad she didn't fight them with real resources when she had the chance."
Under Hillary Clinton, the State Department repeatedly declined to fully go after the terror group responsible for kidnapping hundreds of girls.
The State Department under Hillary Clinton fought hard against placing the al Qaeda-linked militant group Boko Haram on its official list of foreign terrorist organizations for two years. And now, lawmakers and former U.S. officials are saying that the decision may have hampered the American government's ability to confront the Nigerian group that shocked the world by abducting hundreds of innocent girls.
In the past week, Clinton, who made protecting women and girls a key pillar of her tenure at the State Department, has been a vocal advocate for the 200 Nigerian girls kidnapped by Boko Haram, the loosely organized group of militants terrorizing northern Nigeria. Her May 4 tweet about the girls, using the hashtag #BringOurGirlsBack, was cited across the media and widely credited for raising awareness of their plight.
What Clinton didn't mention was that her own State Department refused to place Boko Haram on the list of foreign terrorist organizations in 2011, after the group bombed the U.N. headquarters in Abuja. The refusal came despite the urging of the Justice Department, the FBI, the CIA, and over a dozen senators and congressmen.
But of course Clinton's response to these questions will be, we have 300 girls threatened to be sold into sex slavery, what difference does it make that Boko Haram are terrorists.
Boko Haram Claims Responsibility For Kidnapping More Than 200 Missing Nigerian Girls … Islamist Militant Terrorist Leader Says … "I Will Sell Them … Allah Says I Should Sell"
Abubakar Shekau, man claiming to be the Boko Haram leader has claimed responsibility for the mass kidnapping of over 200 Nigerian girls. In a video tape the Muslim Islamist militant leader said, "I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by Allah. There is a market for selling humans. Allah says I should sell." Over 200 girls were abducted on April 14, 2014 when a school in north-east Nigeria was attacked by members of the Islamist group Boko Haram, whose name means "Western education is forbidden," in Chibok.
And of course Islam is a religion of peace.
About 230 girls are still believed to be missing, prompting widespread criticism of the Nigerian government.
The Boko Haram insurgency has left thousands dead since 2009.
The girls were taken from their boarding school in Chibok, in the northern state of Borno, on the night of 14 April.
"I abducted your girls. I will sell them in the market, by Allah," a man claiming to be Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau said in a video first obtained by Agence France-Presse.
"There is a market for selling humans. Allah says I should sell. He commands me to sell. I will sell women. I sell women," he continued, according to a CNN translation from the local Hausa language.
Boko Haram is a terrorist group receiving training from al Qaeda affiliates, according to U.S. officials. Its name means "Western education is sin." In his nearly hour long, rambling video, Shekau repeatedly called for Western education to end.
Democrats would tell you that the GOP is conducting a war on women. Sorry, but you trivialize the actual war on woman and their exploitation that is taking place in the world no different than Democrats fauz cries of racism just because someone may disagree with Obama's policies. As Legal Insurrection states, take a real good look at the real war on women courtesy of Islamists.

Wiki Headlines
18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
These are the main characters in the comic strip FoxTrot.
Roger FoxThe patriarch, whose activities include watching most sports, playing golf (or trying to and failing miserably), losing at chess to anyone who will play him, setting himself on fire while barbequeing, regularly reformatting the hard drive on the iFruit by accident, and obliviousness to his own incompetence, a trait he has passed onto his children. He works a white-collar job as a pencil-pushing dilbert for a Mean Boss.
Andrea "Andy" FoxShe writes columns for the local newspaper and is the only family member exempt from Small Name, Big Ego syndrome. Originally, that was all the personality she had; later she became a Jerkass health-foods nut, leading to Lethal Chef tendencies, and grew prone to addictive behavior (such as getting hooked to Jason's First-Person Shooter, Beanie Babies, and the movie Titanic).Andy also has a love-hate relationship with her mother, because everyone likes her more than they do Andy, including Roger. (Her introduction was a major watershed for the character because it was the first time Andy had a character.)
Peter FoxA high-school junior with an inability to be attractive to girls and a complete love of food; he is often characterized by his bottomless stomach and being Bill Amend's punching bag. He often fantasizes about the sports or rock star he'd like to be, though when he tries out for school teams the results are dismal (in one gag, his name is pre-printed on the athletics department's dismissal sheets, leading him to have been cut from the girls' gymnastics team); essentially, he's an athletic Non-Action Guy. Other than that, he's a pretty traditional big brother, teasing Paige and playing sports (unsuccessfully) with Jason. And yet, he still manages to have more athletic ability than his father...
Paige FoxA freshman in high school. Like her brother, she seems invisible to the opposite sex—with the sole exception of supernerd Morton Goldthwait. She does many typical female teenage things, spending her time chatting with friends about cute boys and makeup and other inconsequentialities. She is also an even more Lethal Chef than her mother. Finally, she has a sibling rivalry with her younger brother Jason.
Jason FoxA 5th-grader, super-duper nerd who, among other things, programmed a virus that destroyed the Internet. He entertains a variety of get-rich-quick schemes which never get anywhere, is Paige's Annoying Younger Sibling (which inevitably ends with Jason getting beat up), and spends a lot of time on video games or the Internet, eventually became hooked to "World of Warquest." He also has a thing for fellow nerd (but not social outcast) Eileen Jacobson, though he would never admit it.
QuincyJason's pet iguana. He's very cute for a lizard, and takes everything with reptilian aplomb. (Unless Jason is throwing him at Paige, at which point his expression becomes appropriately panicked). Unlike most comic strip animals, Quincy is usually played straight, without any Funny Animal behavior or thought balloons. He sometimes gains these characteristics in order to poke fun at the trope.
The iFruitA later addition to the Fox household, specifically, a computer Andy bought in the middle of the daily strip's run. It had a mind of its own and was able to speak and interact with the other characters.
Denise RussoPeter's blind girlfriend. She was introduced in a 1990 Story Arc.
NicolePaige's best friend with similar interests. Steve (see below) and Nicole are generally the ones to encourage Paige or Peter to do something risky or questionable, but that's a function of the way the strip is set up; it wouldn't be An Aesop if Paige were the one to suggest shoplifting and Nicole stayed on the straight-and-narrow.
Steve RileyPeter's best friend. Probably had more mentions from Peter than actual dialogue.
Morton GoldthwaitA freshman who has an eternal crush on Paige. Jason hero-worships him for the same reasons Paige detests him.
Marcus JonesJason's best friend. They share similar interests, but Marcus never really got that much in the way of character development. A lot of the tropes that apply to Jason also apply to Marcus.
Eileen JacobsonLike Calvin and Hobbes' Susie Derkins, she is more likely to get the drop on Jason than the other way around.
Phoebe WuEileen's best friend, she meet Eileen, Jason and Marcus at Science Camp.
Eugene WuPhoebe's twin brother and an egotistical genius who makes Jason look humble by comparison. Introduced in the same arc as Pheobe.
PierreA young, suave Frenchman who regularly shows up in Paige's dreams. By all appearances, he seems to be an amalgamation of what Paige would consider to be the traits of an ideal boyfriend.
CartoonistWhenever one of the characters is reading a newspaper and there is a close-up of said newspaper, it usually features a headline mentioning this guy and the latest incredible feat he has accomplished or is currently undertaking.

Robert Redford in Talks to Star in Disney's PETE'S DRAGON
by Adam Chitwood Posted 43 days ago
Nearly everything about Disney's Pete's Dragon remake has pretty unexpected. First, the studio enlisted David Lowery—the director behind the Terrence Malick-esque crime film Ain't Them Bodies Saints—to take the helm instead of some studio-friendly journeyman. Now the studio is surprising once again with its first big cast member, as word comes that Robert Redford is in talks to take on a pivotal role in the picture, which will live-action save for CG effects that will bring the titular dragon to life. Hit the jump for more on the Pete's Dragon remake, including how much the story will differ from the 1977 iteration.

Prolotherapy Support
Posted by Reviewer1298897 on Aug 30, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
This product was developed by a well renowned practitioner (prolotherapist)and appears, ingredient-wise, to provide good nutritional support for the therapy. Prolotherapy is an alternative, natural therapy to address pain and may serve to minimize/eliminate the need for pharmaceutical management and/or surgery (investigate it on the web). I just started taking it since I'm receiving the therapy but am not yet certain of its efficacy. It's pricey (as are all O M products) and there are likely other supplements that may be adequate.

Budget and Finance
County Budgets
York County Commissioners Steve Chronister, Doug Hoke and Chris Reilly approved the 2014 budget on Dec. 18, 2013.
It holds the line on taxes from County government for the fourth time in the last five years. Taxes were last raised in 2013 to help make up for more than $7 million in state and federal budget cuts to mandated services.
Under the 2014 budget, the millage rate remains 4.52. A taxpayer whose home is assessed at $150,000 will continue to pay $678 in County real estate taxes.
The $476.7 million plan includes general fund expenses of $190.6 million. Proposed general fund spending increased 0.9 percent, less than the rate of inflation, due to higher health care and debt repayment costs.
Excluding those hard costs, the cost of operations decreased 1.8 percent compared to 2013.
You can learn how to calculate your county tax bill here.
York County continues to be on solid financial footing. Standard & Poor's in 2010 recognized the strength of the County's finances when it upgraded the county's credit rating to AA, one of the highest available ratings.
The Documents
Budget documents are presented below.
The General Fund Summary outlines revenue and expenditures associated with the County's General Fund. The General Fund is primarily supported by property taxes and generally has no funding restrictions, so it is locally controlled.
The "Summary All Funds" document shows budget figures for each funding stream, including restricted-use funds derived from state and federal sources.
Also included are line-item revenue and line-item expense budgets, which are detailed looks at each revenue and expense account. For a big-picture explanation of the budget, be sure to check out the budget presentations. They help explain trends in expenses and revenue that impact a given year's budget.

The latest subject in Band of Outsiders' ongoing Polaroid series is none other than Frank Ocean. Shot at the Los Angeles Times building by creative director Scott Sternberg, Ocean sports the brand's Spring 2013 lineup, which makes for a fitting follow up to that natty yellow shawl collar suit the singer sported at the Grammys. Starting today and continuing through Sunday, Sternberg and his crew are releasing the rest of the images on their Instagram (@thisisbandofoutsiders) and Tumblr (tumblr.bandofoutsiders.com) accounts.

Happy 21st Birthday, Taylor Swift!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Pop some champagne today, readers, Taylor Swift turns 21!
There's little that can be said about the artist at this point, and even less that can be purchased for her as a birthday present.
She already owns every important award known to Hollywood kind; she's been cited as the 2010 Entertainer of the Year; she enjoys numerous endorsement deals; and she has a new stud muffin on her arm.
How does Taylor plan on spending the occasion?
"I definitely want a winter-themed birthday, Christmas-themed," she said last week. "And I'd really like to have it in my condo. I think that would be wonderful."
Send in your birthday wishes to Swift today and check out the following photo montage in her honor.

Category: Bars and Clubs
Region: Macalester/Groveland
The latest wave of cocktail culture has cast an eye backward to the original cocktails. Ingredients have been pulled apart, examined, and recreated using small-batch craft spirits and bitters. The "History of Hip: Booze" lecture, put on by the Minnesota Historical Society at the Turf Club, is turning the spotlight on those classic libations by bringing in the makers of a few artisanal spirits and bitters. On hand will be Adrian Panther of Panther Distillery, which is currently the only licensed distillery in Minnesota. That title won't last long, though, as there are several exciting up-and-comers preparing for their debut on the scene. This includes the forthcoming 11 Wells, a distillery that will be housed in the former Hamm's Brewery well house. Lee Egbert, a partner at 11 Wells, will be in attendance this evening to discuss the project, as well as to showcase his Dashfire Bitters, which liven up any drink. The talk happens downstairs in the Lounge (accessible only by stairs). Call 651-259-3015 for more details. Also, it's a booze event, so only of-age drinkers are allowed. 21+.

About Celia Homsher
I started coming to Crystal Lake with my family when I was 5 years old. My husband has been coming for the past 35 years. It has become a part of our children's lives too...and their grandparents, all their cousins, aunts, and uncles too. So many great qualities of life here (accompanying so many great memories) that we decided it would be a great place to buy a cottage as an investment to share with others!
Celia Homsher purchased this cottage in 2013
Why Celia Homsher chose Crystal Lake
We could not pass up this unique opportunity of buying this charming cottage, sitting directly on the lake!

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My son attends this school. While the school,like most schools, has some very good teachers, some are less than stellar. My biggest complaint is the teachers refusal to hold their students to a higher level. The expectations are set low and as a result the students are actually encouraged to flounder.
I think this school is decent, but could be more challenging. You have got to be on top of your kids, as there are a few that run with a fast crowd, if you know what I mean. It is all of the things a parent worries about.
Newton High School is a great school. There is plenty to do and, because of it's relatively small size, great relationships can be build between faculty/parents/students. It's a great four year experience.
There is a lot of parent involvement and varied academic programs. There are good math and some good science programs, but in the areas of technology and agriculture, Newton distances itself. Sports and school groups are really well attended too.
Newton High School was probably the best choice that could've been made. The faculty and staff were intelligent as well as caring and the students really seemed to be fascinated by what they were taught. The music programs were top of the line and the sports programs were a nice touch too.
