Apple MacBook Air stays skinny, gains beefier specs
Sony Z series
If I had that sort of money to fritter, I'd buy a Sony Z series every time. I reckon it looks nicer, probably lighter, has a better battery life, is far more powerful, actually has a better keyboard (despite looking the same...) and has a usable amount of ports.
And since when was nVidia's GeForce 8400M an integrated GPU?? Apparently is, according to El Reg and Apple's Website.. Shame on you, it's dedicated!
Close, but no cigar indeed.
Dell offers glimpse of monster quad-core laptop
it aint a gaming laptop
"If you're serious about gaming, get a ruddy desktop."
It's a workstation, it's part of Dell's corporate range, it's not aimed at gamers.
Robotic hand relief
..oh yes, I've ordered fifty. Just so I don't have to clean them afterwards..
Now get back to writing El Reg and stop leaving silly comments!!
MSI Wind Windows XP Edition sub-notebook
For God's sake..
Sony never had any trouble selling its TZ for £2k - and it can't do half what a "real" laptop can, blah blah.
What's so difficult to understand about the concept?! A 10-inch screen is nowhere near full-sized, machines with a 12-inch display are generally regarded as ultraportable, and it's considerably smaller than any of those.
Fekk me, the only thing these machines are lacking in comparison with considerably more expensive Sony/Asus/FSC ultraportables are the DVD drives. MB Air doesn't even have that..
Look at any other consumer market - it's all relative. A brand new car at £4000 is an absolute steal - but I certainly don't have 4k lying around..
Of course £300 isn't throwaway - but neither is £200. Even at £300 - £400 this new breed of laptop are bargains, IN COMPARISON TO OTHER ULTRAPORTABLES. Jeez, it's like moaning about a full-on gaming machine because it weighs a bit and the battery is sh*te.
If you want a full-sized, full-power shed then off you scoot down to Comet and buy one; you're cleary not the target customer for these laptops, so stop complaining and I hope you suffer forever from back-pain from lugging your new 3.5kg, £200 desktop-alike piece of junk. Still, think of the apps you'll be able to run on it, eh eh. Happy in the knowledge you couldn't have done so on an sub-notebook...
Samsung slips out skinny phone
..what about the Sony Ericsson W880i? Either my ruler needs re-calibration or my phone is thinner than either the Samsung or HTC
Apple MacBook Air
I don't know what motherboards Apple may have used in the past, and I'm not commenting on whether they design their own components, but it definitely does still outsource the manufacture of its laptops to Asus.
It doesn't make anything itself.
It was the MacBook Air sub-notebook
There have been loads of thin and light laptops, check out FSC's Q2010 for starters:
Few ports, about 20mm in depth, no optical drive, reasonable sized screen, absolutely stunning. Cost the best part of £3ooo just last year too.
There are few things new here. And the one USB is just a pain in the neck - are some of you that deluded to think users don't want to plug in a mouse AND a USB key at the same time? Or perhaps print from something on an external disk..?! There's no excuse, it should have 2 USB ports at least.
And great, it has wireless, which works really really well with all the routers that require setting up with ethernet cables first.. Getting round that one will be a doddle for first-time users
I'd buy a Sony SZ6 everytime. It takes up pretty much the same amount of space in my bag, I'm not actually going to notice that whole 400g more, it's stylish, has bloody good performance for an ultraportable, I can take another battery with me when I'm travelling and it's made by the same flippin company. No-brainer
"Frankly, the 1.1kg of my Portege is nice to carry around and do presentations, and even the 2.5kg of the IBM/Lenovo is alright.. but thinner and lighter IS better as far as I'm concerned. Those asking who it's for -- it's for me."
Erm, brilliant point, and I wish you all the best...
...but it weighs more than your 1.1kg Toshiba..!! Hope you enjoy that extra thinness though
Nokia wins hearts, minds with breakthrough mobile
Not quite
See, to me the idea of converging phones and music players doesn't make any sense.
I had an iPhone for a little while, and not once after my first week with it did I use it to play music on. I don't particularly mind if a phone doesn't have a two-week battery life, as I'm going to be home at least every other night and can charge it - but use them for playing music and the battery life really is appalling.
I'd much rather it be my mp3 player that runs out of battery half way through a long journey than my phone. That's just not something I could cope with.
Canon PowerShot A460 compact camera
camera not phone..
Camera phones don't even get close. The lenses are nowhere near as good, and performance in low light levels tends to be far worse. True, manufacturers can cram 5-megapixel technology into them, but with tiny sensors this just means images tend to suffer from noise. Stick with a proper camera if you want photographs you can actually display.
Asus Eee PC as 'hard to get your hands on as a Wii'
why moan at the price?
Don't you realise what this machine is made for - yes it costs a whopping £219 rather than £100/£150, but what on earth would you buy instead?!
You're not gonna get a decent ultraportable for anywhere near that, although granted you could buy an under-specced 15.4-inch 3kg machine made by a retail store for twice the price..
The eeeeee is ideal for the commuter, it's light, it's particularly robust and the lack of Windows really isn't a problem for most users. True, at some point Vista will probably get stuck on it, as with a larger screen, more memory, faster processor, and you're back to paying a hell of a lot more money again.
Look at anything in its league - some of the UMPCs cost up to 2k, 11-inch machines like Sony's TZ cost well over a grand. You might be too tight to fork out £219 for an ultraportable laptop, but the sales success suggest most other people - me included - disagree.
OQO Model e2 UMPC
"Um - since the Japanese language has no 'Q' sound...not particularly, no."
There's no 'Q' sound in OQO.
It's pronounced oko. Which the Japanese are perfectly capable of saying. Oko-cho-kogome.
So, just a little bit..

|I've been the sole gardener at an estate for 15+ years and recently made the decision to make fine gardening my focused career (I left a previous vocation). I now have a number of clients and have come to a place where I need to hire help if I want to expand my business. There are a myriad issues it seems with hiring and after searching for info at length online with little success, I thought I might find some advice here.
Our season here runs from about mid-April-end of Oct., with May and June being very busy, as is September. Summer is slow.
How to hire someone when work is sometimes sporadic is my dilemma. I could possibly keep someone busy 5 days a week May into June, but once July heat hits, things can be very slow until fall cleanup starts.
Would a semi-retired person be an option? (though a young guy would have better stamina and a stronger back)
Where do you find seasonal help - Craigslist?
Are there landscape job boards?
Do you hire as independent contractors or 'work-for-hire' ?
What about insurances? Necessary?
As I'm just starting up, funds are tight and currently am not making enough to pay benefits, etc., but I also cannot expand the business without taking on new clients, which means I'd need to hire. I feel a bit like a cat chasing its tail.

WASHINGTON — A University of Chicago Medicine's health program — once headed by First Lady Michelle Obama when it was created, now run by Dr. Eric Whitaker, close friend of the First Couple — was awarded a $5.9 million grant by the Department of Health and Human Services.
The grant was announced on Tuesday; the U. of C.'s Urban Health Initiative was one of 26 programs winning federal Health Care Innovation grants — funded through President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act.
The grant will be used to create an electronic database, called a "Community Rx system," to assist potentially about 200,000 South Side residents — on Medicare, Medicaid or who gets health insurance through the State of Illinois — get linked up with doctors and clinics and other health services near where they live. About 90 jobs are expected to be created through the program for residents of the area.
When Mrs. Obama was an executive at the U. of C. medical center, one of her projects was to find ways to steer uninsured neighborhood patients away from the U. of C. hospital emergency room who were using it for health problems treatable at community health centers.
At the time, in 2006, a public affairs firm founded by David Axelrod — who, wearing another hat was already a top strategist for then Sen. Obama — was hired to help generate local support for the project. Mrs. Obama's project evolved into the Urban Health Initiative now run by Whitaker.
Susan Sher, former chief of staff for the first lady, is now the executive vice president for corporate strategy and public affairs at the U. of C. Medicine.
HHS said in a release that one of the hoped-for outcomes was "fewer avoidable visits to the emergency room with estimated savings of approximately $6.4 million."
Cheryl Reed, director of strategic communication for the U. of C. Medicine said, "This grant wouldn't have been possible if the University hadn't already created a health network that links people on the South Side to primary care doctors at 32 different community clinics."

Police department tackles growth
In order to deal with Sequims growth, the Sequim Police Department has had to grow, too, but the transition from a rural to small city police department may be having a negative effect on department morale.
The police department, during the May 19 meeting of the Sequim City Council, presented an overview of the departments strategic policing plan. Although the plan was created in 2006 and reaches to the year 2012, as a living and breathing document, it is continually updated.
The plan is a sort of road map for the department, setting out yearly goals that are, according to a department memo, designed to enhance performance, service to the community, deal with growth and crime challenges, as well as serve as a report to the city council and the rest of the Sequim community, providing statistical information regarding previous years activities.
Obtaining a new facility continues to be a major issue and priority for the police department. The department has already established that including a new station within the proposed Sequim city hall is infeasible because of the sort of clientele the police receive, as well as the fact that the station would have to be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Earlier this year Chief Robert Spinks, who is currently serving as the citys interim manager, told the city council that he had found a potential developer and site, as well as a tentative price tag. Spinks would not publicly disclose the developers identity, the sites location or the price tag for the project. He did say, however, that the developer had offered to cover the costs of planning the project.
Improving technology is also an area of concern for the department. According to Lt. Sheri Crain, the departments records management system desperately needs to be improved, as well as radio dispatching.
You cant get a word in edgewise, said Crain, adding that the increased radio traffic greatly affects police safety because officers have trouble reporting in.
Cramped facilities and archaic technologies, combined with more incidents and arrests, seem to be adding to officers stress. Department employees in 2005 and 2007 answered a number of questions regarding morale, the level of training, the fairness of promotions and communication or lack thereof within the department. Employees morale went down from 2005 to 2007, as did the number of employees who believed promotions and assignments were fairly doled out and discipline fairly administered.
In 2005, nearly 90 percent of the department felt that communication was encouraged with feedback regularly occurring. In 2007 that number dropped to 30 percent. Ninety percent of the departments employees felt that they were kept informed and their input sought and well considered in 2005. This dropped to about 25 percent by 2007.
According to Spinks, the dissatisfaction could be attributed to the departments sudden growth, including the addition of three new supervisors.
Weve gone through a significant change, Spinks said. Were learning how to be good leaders.
But despite this, the police department continues to succeed. Most recently, it was rewarded with a 2007 Target Zero award. The agency was one of only four in the state to receive the award.
We have the best police department weve ever had here, Councilman Bill Huizinga said.

Several months ago I viewed one of Dr. Cranky's videos where he was discussing clear coats. At the time, I didn't really think much of it, as I had my airbrushes, compressor, and dedicated paint area in which to apply my color and clear coats. After moving to an apartment in Central Florida, all of these items were in storage, and I asked myself "What is a guy to do"? So, I reviewed Dr. Cranky's video, and tried to see where I could find this stuff(DuPont™ A-7480S™ Acrylic Trim & Jamb Clear).
http://www.johnsonau...Jamb-Clear.html Seemed that it was rather ellusive to locate via mail order... Now, this was probably operator error on my part, as a recent trip to Carquest Auto Parts yielded the knowledge that they carried it. I also learned that they custom mix cans of spray paint only 5 minutes from my apartment. Well, after trying the DuPont 7480S, I have to say "YEAH"! This clear coat went on smoothly and dried crystal clear. Two medium coats looked great on the trial spoon on which I had tested different colored primers under a coat of Krylon Cherry Red to match a particular color for a series of projects that I am working on. Even better is that I applied the 7480S over some custom made decals and it worked flawlessly!!! Can't wait to get some of these projects finished to see the final results! Thanks again Dr. Cranky!

Whenever LeBron James decides to stay in Miami with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, have a prodigal son-like homecoming in Cleveland, take the mantle from Kobe Bryant in Los Angeles, or form a new powerhouse with Bosh or Carmelo Anthony in Phoenix or Houston, the real loser will be the lunacy.
So far, the mere presence of the game's best player on the open market has done wonders for rumors, speculation, fake Twitter accounts and even aviation trackers in the last week. James continues to hold the NBA hostage and the uncertainty has created a level of hysteria that dwarfs any of the actual player movement that has already taken place.
The only way the NBA free agent recruiting period could get more bizarre is if James decides to retire and take up playing minor league baseball for the Chicago White Sox. The crescendo for a conclusion has been so crazy, that if James decided to announce his next decision on a better-produced, less egotistical, (maybe) half-hour long special on a major cable television network, it might not seem so out of bounds. A Decision, Part II might actually calm everybody down if only because then we might finally have some concrete information.
James' power has never been more evident than it is right now, because the four-time Most Valuable Player and two-time NBA champion carries the unenviable position as a portable dynasty creator; wherever he goes, the Larry O'Brien trophy is bound to follow. That's why most teams have been unwilling to give serious chase to alternatives. Their logic: Because LeBron.
In the two-week span since James opted out of his contact in Miami, the speculation has gone from him leaving Miami, to him giving Pat Riley the room and time to get something done, to him leaving again – all without a single word from James or a public comment from his childhood friend turned agent, Rich Paul. Paul – one of the R's in James's LRMR management team – is a native of Cleveland, the headquarters of his burgeoning agency, Klutch Sports. He handled the initial conversations with teams on behalf of James last week and is reportedly pushing his client for a return to his home state.
It cannot be understated that before James sat down in that plaid shirt to inform Jim Gray he was taking his talents to South Beach during the summer of 2010, Paul called Cavs owner Dan Gilbert to give him the heads up.
Gilbert was hurt to see James leave; James was upset by the scathing letter Gilbert wrote to Cavaliers fans.
But the relationship between Gilbert and James' camp began to thaw publicly when the Cavaliers chose Paul's client, Tristan Thompson, with the fourth pick in 2011, ahead of the favored Jonas Valanciunas. And, last season, James was welcomed back when the franchise retired Zydrunas Ilgauskas' jersey.
Given his northeast Ohio ties, James is probably the only all-star caliber talent who would consider leaving to play in Cleveland, where he starred from 2003 to 2010. A reunion with the Cavaliers would make for an incredible, Hollywood-worthy redemptive tale and allow James to truly make amends with a jilted city.
With the exception of drafting and locking up two-time all-star point guard Kyrie Irving, Cleveland has mostly bumbled its rebuilding efforts. The lack of seasoned talent on the roster would make it difficult for the Cavaliers to become immediate contenders – even with the sublime talents of James. But they are stocked with assets, including No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins and three first-round picks next year, which could possibly be traded for some veteran help.

main index
If you wanna knowAlice and Bob are friends, and maybe one of them has a crush on the other. They decide to do a test to find out whether they should start a relationship. What does the test consist of? Their First Kiss, of course! If it's a good kiss, this will be True Love's Kiss. This is especially likely if one party is the Victorious Childhood Friend or if they are the Official Couple. However, the fact that they aren't sure about it to begin with says something. When neither party (or only one) feels that crucial something, they say its because there are No Sparks between them. This bad kiss could be the impetus for one of them to seek another mate, or to give up on a crush he or she has outgrown. The test kiss will likely be unsuccessful if one party is the Unlucky Childhood Friend, the Romantic False Lead, a Romantic Runnerup, wants to be Just Friends, or if they're Platonic Life Partners. This trope appears in many romantic comedies in which there are two or more love interests. It's especially common when someone is having doubts about an upcoming wedding. In test kisses, the experimental nature of the kiss is emphasized. However, both parties don't always know it's an experiment. Often, what one party is testing is his or her own feelings, and sometimes their own sexual orientation. Without this experimental focus, or perhaps some stakes attached, it's just any old getting-to-know-you kiss. Sometimes a character will suggest a test kiss because he/she sure that the other loves him/her, but she/he is denying/suppressing it for some reason. In these cases, the kiss is meant to be a wake-up call, proving to the oblivious/taken/heroically withholding character that they can no longer ignore their feelings. Related tropes: No Sparks, Will They or Won't They?, Relationship Upgrade, Unresolved Sexual Tension. Not to be confused with Practice Kiss, where characters kiss to test something other than their own romantic sparks.
If he loves you so
It's in his kiss!
That's where it is, oh yeah!

A: In order to take off the hinges, you'll have to back out the old straight-slot screws that hold them in place. That requires clearing the screws' paint-clogged slots. Given the age of your house, there are probably layers of lead paint on the hinges, so before you start, put on a respirator and lay down a wide piece of plastic sheeting under the work area to catch any paint chips.
Removing a Section of Baseboard
A: Sure, that's very doable. The key is to make a perfectly plumb cut so that the cabinet's side will butt tightly against the baseboard. All you need is a level, a handsaw, a sharp chisel or a utility knife, a nailset, and a hammer or a screwdriver.
Step 1: Use the level to mark a plumb line on the baseboard (a square is unreliable because you can never assume the floor is level). If there are any nails in the baseboard where the cut will be made, drive them all the way through with a nailset.
Nail or screw a 14 scrap block along the line on the side of the baseboard that will remain. This block serves as a guide to prevent the saw blade from wandering and to help you achieve a clean, straight cut. Tape a thin piece of cardboard to the floor to protect it from being hit by the saw.
Place the blade of a fine-tooth handsaw against the scrap and start the cut, going straight up and down. Once you get a kerf started, turn the blade very slightly so that the cut angles behind the block. This "back cut" helps you get a tight fit with the cabinet. As the saw sinks into the wood, tip it forward so that you don't gouge the wall. The kerf won't go all the way to the floor, so finish the cut with a chisel or a utility knife. Pry off the baseboard on the waste side of the cut, then remove the guide block and fill the holes left by the fasteners. Now the fun begins: installing your cabinet.
Making Room for Outlets in Drywall
A: Typically, drywall goes up after the boxes go in but before switches and receptacles get installed. But because your receptacles are already in place, the tricks I'd normally suggest for locating drywall cuts—like using lipstick to outline the box—won't work. You shouldn't have to remove them, though, if you follow these steps. Just be sure to cut the power before you start working.
Step 1: Start by hanging the first sheets at the top of the wall. Place a level against one side of the box, overlapping the bottom edge of the drywall. Plumb the level and mark the drywall on the side that's against the box, as shown. Do the same for the opposite side of the box.
Step 2: Measure from the top and bottom of the receptacle to the bottom edge of the drywall. Pencil those dimensions on the upper sheet for the next step. Now prop the bottom sheet of drywall in position against the studs and under the bottom edge of the first sheet.

Removing Tricky Hinge Screws
A: First, remove any screw that will come out the usual way. Then gently pry or pull on the hinge leaf to pull out the stripped screws a bit. Now when you push the hinge back into place, the heads of those stripped screws will stand out just enough for you to grab them with a pair of pliers, as shown. Pull each one out with a firm tug.
If the screws are still in good condition, with intact threads, remove any debris with a wire brush and reuse them.
If you plan to remount the door, you'll need to fill the stripped screw holes first. Whittle some small pieces of wood, put a dab of yellow carpenter's glue in the hole, and pack it full with the wood pieces. After the glue dries, trim off the excess bits of wood and you'll have solid material for the screw threads to bite into.
Cutting Molding on a Miter Saw
A: The safest way to keep those little rascals under control is with a plywood backer that closes up the gap in the fence.
Start with a strip of ¾-inch plywood long enough to cover the entire fence. Secure it with washers and pan-head screws at both ends of the fence. Then set the blade at 0 degrees and cut completely through the backer. This creates a kerf, a small gap the same thickness as the blade, which indicates exactly where to place the molding before you make your cut.
Then when you do, the backer prevents the return from flying through the gap. Just remember to remove both backer pieces before making angled cuts.

November 27, 2014
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Critics and county commissioners say plans to eliminate some services at University Medical Center to offset $8 million in state Medicaid funding cuts will endanger the health of indigent patients.
Officials acknowledge that program cuts announced Tuesday offer few options for cancer treatment, kidney dialysis and prenatal care for hundreds of the county's poorest residents.
Commissioner Lawrence Weekly called it a "crisis," and Commission Chairman Rory Reid called for Gov. Jim Gibbons, legislative and community leaders, and officials from nonprofit and private hospitals to meet to discuss health care in Nevada.
UMC chief Kathy Silver told commissioners that more cuts probably would be needed if Medicaid is cut further in July.
State health officials announced 5 percent cuts this year in Medicaid reimbursements for inpatient hospital services.
Nevada Medicaid covers low-income Nevadans who qualify based on
financial need, federal and state law.

The hard-earned wisdom of local municipal governments, here and elsewhere across Tennessee and other states, is that sensible zoning and development standards typically improve property values, quality of life and general prosperity of all residents. And they do so without infringing on traditional and long respected property rights. Alas, some reactionary right-wing diehards in the Legislature are seeking to block the authority of local governments -- the governments closest to their constituents-- to keep such standards in place.
Acting apparently in league with the bottom rung of developers who care little about the long-term consequences of haphazard development, they've introduced a stack of bills in the Legislature aimed at destroying both the most common zoning standards, and the most popular means of improving growth, construction and land-use regulations. Tennessee's counties, cities and towns can't continue to properly grow and evolve if these errant lawmakers get their way.
Zoning targeted
The legislators pushing these varied bills -- there are more than half a dozen -- claim to be protecting individual property rights. That's a gross distortion. They would effectively undo more than 70 years of settled law in Tennessee on ordinary zoning rules.
Current zoning laws, for instance, already grandfather in existing uses of land. One proposed revision would turn the law upside down in order to vest unrestricted use of annexed land in perpetuity -- even if such land has been unused for allowed purposes for many years. That would directly harm a range of neighboring land-owners and denigrate the common good.
Under present law, if a municipality -- say, Soddy-Daisy, Collegedale or Chattanooga -- annexes land used for a factory or horse farm, those uses are grandfathered in as they exist until they are closed by the owner. If annexed land zoned for those uses is already idle and unused for those purposes, it may be rezoned after a specified period.
Going backwards fast
But under the proposed change, that process would be destroyed. For example, if Signal Mountain annexed land containing an old coal strip-mine -- such abandoned mines are common on Waldens Ridge -- it could never prohibit a new strip mine on that land through a rezoning unless the landowner agreed -- even if the old strip mine had been abandoned for many decades, and neighborhoods surrounding it have been built.
Another bill would take that kind of retrograde land-use abuse a step further. It would allow the rebuilding of a previous structure that would not conform to a new zoning standard. That would also disallow the application of newer and safer building, electrical and sewer codes.
Another bill would even expand the right to non-conforming uses to contiguous land held under common ownership.
Still another bill would allow erection of non-conforming on-site signs and billboards for such non-conforming structures that are rebuilt on land that municipalities would otherwise rezone. So new and ugly misuse of once-idle land could continue forever. That truly would be an outrage.
Renaissance would fade
Another bill would prevent local governments from uniformly applying widely approved rezoning overlays for designated areas that are undergoing broad redevelopment plans. Under these rules, a single objecting landowner of one of the abandoned factories and overgrown lots that blighted the city's downtown riverfront just two decades ago could have single-handedly held up the city's valuable riverfront renaissance. The rezoning and rehabilitation of the Southside and South Broad Street areas here might never occur under these rules.
Such proposed legislation is not just myopic and unreasonable: It is a stick of the eye of the vast majority of citizens in Tennessee's cities and towns who have embraced urban renewal and orderly suburban and urban growth. Worse, it is apparently motivated by a handful of developers who objected to metro Nashville's efforts to advance the city's progressive growth.
And it is stupidly abetted by a handful of lawmakers who are in thrall to a small minority of people who mistakenly fear that orderly development unreasonably threatens their personal property rights, though it does no such thing.
In reality, these bills would give a small fraction of landowners enormous new rights to which none of us are entitled. And it would do so at the clear risk of reversing our broad and popular progress.
Broad progress jeopardized
As Tennessee's towns and counties grow in population and congestion, standards that foster urban services and amenities are required. They broadly serve to protect and promote safer, sounder, greener and more visually appealing development. And they certainly attract the forward-looking companies that bring our communities good jobs with good family wages, and a higher quality of life.
Tennessee has been enjoying the fruits of progressive growth for decades. Wise zoning and land-use planning has served as an integral element of our economic development and job prospects.
The state needs to continue this sort of orderly and progressively smarter growth.
But unless the Legislature's Republican leaders can rein in reactionary lawmakers who would pervert good government and jeopardize our advancement, low-rung developers and people afraid of wise growth will wreck our progress. And Tennessee will lose its allure -- and its promise.
Harry Austin ...............BULL CRAP......Another socialist view from the left wings propagandist . Harry, why don't we do away with the bill rights. All1 has to do look at the abuse of eminent domain to see how wrong he is . His elitist attitude can be seen the term low rung developers ." His arrogance and allegiance to the power structure never disappoints . .
This is a typical disgusting pathetic liberal article to try and convince people that more government intrusion is a good thing. You see, these liberals have to have the government tell them what to do because they are so intellectual they cannot think for themselves. They think intellectualism is sitting around discussing how more government control is a good thing. These liberals are so helpless if they got stuck on a broken escalator they would have to wait for someone to rescue them. Pathetic
According to these guys, the more they can abuse the citizens with no recourse the better government is. Sounds kind of like the way DC has be runnning the past four years? I guess anyone, to them, who does not believe in taxation without representation is a criminal. Does anyone remember what happened in Boston? 47 other states cannot annex your property without a referendum, yet these good ol boys want to take it at will. Would we be someting so terribly worng by allowing our citizens of a 10th amendment state acturally have the same rights as they do in a state like California? Wow! That would be a shame!
