Agent Provocateur: The Films of Paul Verhoeven
With the Robocop reboot about to kick down the doors, it's time for a retrospective of Paul Verhoeven, the Dutch provocateur responsible for the original and a handful of other classics. "Classic" might seem a bit rich, but with poor cyborg Officer Murphy, Total Recall, Basic Instinct, Starship Troopers, and Showgirls, Verhoeven's carved out his own gaudy niche of violence and eroticism. He's certainly brought a bruise or two to the surface of popular culture. TIFF is taking a look at the breadth of his career in their new program Flesh + Blood: The Films of Paul Verhoeven, showing his early Dutch movies all the way through to his Hollywood home-runs. Join me after the jump for a pair of his earliest, the WWII epic Soldier of Orange and the medieval depravity of Flesh+Blood. Read the rest of this entry
The Bourne Legacy Rules – Biff Bam Pop's Box Office Wrap-Up Report
Matt Damon may not be onboard, but audiences still responded in a huge way to the latest entry in the Bourne franchise. Meanwhile, two other new releases posted some excellent number. Here's how the weekend went down.
As predicted, The Bourne Legacy, starring Jeremy Renner, did great business, grossing $40 million for its opening weekend, beating back middling reviews and the absence of Matt Damon's Jason Bourne. Not only does the film's opening number signal the continuing health of the franchise, but it also cements Jeremy Renner as a leading actor that audiences will pay money to see. I wonder how this bodes for a Hawkeye film?
Find out how the rest of the weekend turned out after the jump:

Saturday At The Movies – Total Recall 2012 vs Total Recall 1990
Dear movie studios,
I hate to say this because I like the guy, but if you're looking to make a splash at the box office during the summer movie season, you must not put Colin Farrell in your tent pole release. No matter how great your film is, no, scratch that. No matter how good or even average your movie is, it will severely underperform if Colin Farrell is your leading man.
It's a fact. Find out why after the jump.

The Bourne Legacy vs The Campaign vs Hope Springs – Biff Bam Pop's Box Office Predictions
Three new films are looking to claim dibs on the top spot at the box office this weekend. Will it be a new edition to a solid franchise, a comedy team-up between two big stars or a romantic comedy looking for some summer counter programming success? Here are our predictions:
The Bourne Legacy is the first edition of the increasingly succesful franchise to not feature Matt Damon aka Jason Bourne. In his place is Jeremy Renner as another Treadstone operative but who is equally as badass. Renner may not have the box office clout on his own that Damon possess, but he's well on his way. Trailers for The Bourne Legacy have received great notices, making clear that this story takes place in the same established Bourne world. Action fans and Avengers fans will likely help make this film a decent sized hit. Look for The Bourne Legacy to debut in the top spot with $40 million.
Find out how the rest of the top five will shape up after the jump.

The Dark Knight Rises Above Total Recall – Biff Bam Pop's Box Office Wrap-Up Report
Two new films debut this weekend but neither could shut down the success of The Dark Knight Rises, which held onto the top spot at the box office for the third weekend in a row. Find out what went down at theatres after the jump!

Total Recall vs Diary Of A Wimpy Kid: Biff Bam Pop's Box Office Predictions 08/03/2012
This weekend, a sci-fi remake and the third entry in a family friendly franchise look to topple The Dark Knight Rises from the top of the box office. Do either of them have a chance, or will the numbers recall the last few weekends?
Let's be real – I don't think anybody has been waiting for a Total Recall remake. The original, a classic, über violent sci-fi flick with Arnold Schwarzenegger, is still well-regarded, even if it did have very little resemblance to its source material, the novel We Can Remember It For You Wholesale by Phillip K. Dick. A remake with Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, and Jessica Biel and directed by Len Wiseman was a hard sell for me…and then the trailers started hitting the web. And they look good. I think Total Recall could be a decent hit – not a blockbuster, but it could find an audience that hasn't particularly been well served with pure science fiction this summer. What the film has going against is none of the leads can really open a film. On that note, I'm predicting a second place showing for Total Recall with $28 million.
Check out the rest of our predictions after the jump!

Mat Langford's Gaming World – Total Rubbish…er, I Mean Recall For The NES.
With the remake of Total Recall coming out, I figured I'd take a look back at the NES game. It was released to tie in with the original movie, released in 1990, and, well, it was an interesting take on the franchise…and not in a good way.
Let's get this out of the way: this game is awful, and for a number of reasons. First of all, the game didn't look or sound like the movie. The soundtrack was upbeat and the visuals were generic and boring. Yeah, I know that the NES wasn't exactly the most powerful system out there, but at least try! There were certain levels in the game that would claim to reference locations in the movies – like the Last Resort bar (remember the woman with 3 boobs?) – but none of these places actually looked anything like the movie sets. The Last Resort bar was basically a cave with karate skeletons in it. I mean really?
Find out what else went wrong with the game after the jump!

ITT TECH RN Program Portland-Accepted Student Info! - page 3
Hi! I have LOTS of info that people seem to be searching for.....After reading ALL of the posts in regard to ITT Portland RN program AND doing a TON of research via calls and internet, I too decided to try to get into one of the... Read More
- 2Jun 12, '11 by JROregonKmolss01 - The word is graduate not gradguate. What kind of job were you offered if I may ask.
- 0Jul 17, '11 by MariaCMAI have been waiting and waiting and hoping to get into one of the Portland Area Community College nursing programs. Last year was a no, and this year I am on an alternate list. I have a family getting older as am I, and I have determined I can not keep waiting and hoping forever. I am giving some serious thought to ITT as I would like to accomplish my goal of getting my RN.
Thanks for offering up some info about ITT nursing program....
I have noticed some obvious down speech toward ITT having a nursing program as I have been reading along, but I know I can't be alone in this quest to get into a nursing program and achieve my RN. From what I have read, there are a lot of people with all of the pre-requisites completed and no RN program available for them. This seems like the perfect option for anyone out there who can't get directly into a program. I know I am doing some research and seriously considering this option.
Once again, just wanted to thank you for posting the info.

Where: Boys & Girls Club of Laguna Beach, 1085 Laguna Canyon Road
When: Nov. 4 from 2 – 5 p.m.
What: Postcards with a Purpose, an art sale to benefit the Artists Fund at the Festival of Arts and the Boys & Girls Club of Laguna Beach. Artists' identities are revealed only after purchase.
Cost: Free admission
Information: www.theartistsfund-foa.org or 949.612.1949
LAGUNA BEACH - Nothing like a recession to clarify spending priorities — separating needs from wants; wants from necessities.
And while beautiful art might feed the soul, the immediate worry is feeding our stomachs. All of which can mean tough times for artists, who also need to eat.
The Artists Fund at the Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach knows this first hand. This nonprofit provides financial aid to professional artists suffering economic hardship — wonderfully talented and optimistic folks who often feel stability is just one good commission away.
"Art is a luxury and luxury items are not on the top of everyone's budget," fund treasurer Rosemary Swimm says flatly. "In years past, it was a lot easier to sell your work."
Traditionally, the Artists Fund is supported solely by proceeds from an annual sale and auction held during the Festival. But in response to growing need, the Fund this year is holding its first non-Festival fundraising event.
It offers the opportunity to take home an original minimasterpiece and brighten two worlds at once.
Artists have a reputation for, well, starving.
When Vinita Voogd opted for art school, her father cautioned her: Don't marry an artist because the two of you won't make enough income to live.
Turns out she didn't, but the accomplished printmaker responds:
"How do you judge success? For me, being happy with my work is my definition of success."
You could argue that art is a calling. Money is no motivation for choosing a career that potentially creates a month-to-month existence.
It's toughest for artists who are sole providers.
"It is difficult to survive only on an artist's sales," Voogd says." Art is not a product you sell that people need."
Voogd, who serves on the Fund's Board of Directors, explains that the creative mindset is not always well suited for the business side of art. Ironically, artists are self-employed entrepreneurs who must market and sell their work. They have no health benefits or company retirement plan.

I used winSCP to upload files to the site I created in ispconfig. I longed in as root. will that effect the files (permission) I uploaded?

- Studio Dimension Home Video
- Platform PSP Movies
- Genre Action Adventure
Movie Description
Will (Matt Damon) and Jake (Heath Ledger) Grimm are folklore collectors and con artists. The two travel among villages, mesmerizing townspeople with creative folktales and spellbinding illusions, pretending to protect those they encounter from made-up creatures and invented demons. Life turns the tables on the Brothers when they journey into a real enchanted forest, one filled with many of the characters and situations from the Grimm's fabled fairy tales. Now they must summon real courage in the face of real magical creatures and an actual curse. Director Terry Gilliam, the award-winning mastermind behind films like 12 Monkeys, Brazil, and Monty Python and the Holy Grail lends his quirky vision to this tale based on the legendary storytellers.

I'm assuming your looking at buying them? Sunfly are quite big in the world of karaoke tracks also you'll need a player to play CDG files on your laptop. PM me if you want further info
I'm looking to start my own karaoke up with a laptop, and am stuck with the lyrics, i've got alot of music but non of the lyric videos, where would i be able to get these videos?
Any help would be great
I'm assuming your looking at buying them? Sunfly are quite big in the world of karaoke tracks also you'll need a player to play CDG files on your laptop. PM me if you want further info
My husband runs a karaoke with a song list of 23000. You need cdg or mp3+g to provide both the music and lyrics. There are a number of programs to play them on a laptop - when he started out he used Media Player with a free plugin to deal with the lyrics and dual screen etc. He moved onto a paid for program as it offers more features.
Also, if you're looking to do any kind of business like that where you are using music from a laptop you will need to get the ProDub License with Graphic Right Uplift (Mechanical Copyright Protection Society Home will give you more info on it).
If you're using a PC, then Virtual DJ (VIRTUAL DJ SOFTWARE - MP3 Mixing Software) is a brilliant piece of software (in fact you can get it for Mac too however ...)
If you're using a Mac, then I recommend kJams Pro (kJams Karaoke) and MegaSeg (MegaSeg DJ Software for Mac & iTunes - Radio Automation & Live Assist for Mac) for the DJing side of things. Though, I have heard from the inside that MegaSeg is looking to support thoroughbred Karaoke Files (ie MP3+G or other variation) in a future release, but no time scale on this as yet.
As rush_tech has said, SunFly is a good place to start, but there are also the likes of EZ Karaoke and Zoom who do some good sets, but SunFly tend to have the better tracks.
If you are on Mac then kJams actually has Karaoke Stores built in there, so you can buy tracks as though you were buying something off the fruit flavoured song store, which is great if you're out and someone asks for something you don't have, as if you have a good connection, you soon can have it and use it straight away.

MRV Communications Inc. (MRVC:US), a maker of fiber-optic equipment, fell 24 percent after announcing that a committee would re-examine its stock option practices and it may need to restate financial results.
MRV dropped 45 cents to $1.45 at 4 p.m. New York time in Nasdaq Stock Market composite trading, the most since April 28, 2005. The stock has fallen 37 percent this year.
The review centers on, though is not limited to, two of MRV's European units, which granted options from 2002 through the first quarter of 2004, the company said today in a statement. MRV conducted an informal review in 2006 and 2007 that concluded ``there was no evidence that grant dates of options were designed to occur on dates with more favorable exercise prices.''
Now ``management has determined that it is likely that the conclusions reached from the earlier review were incorrect,'' the Chatsworth, California-based company said in the statement.
The results of an investigation may affect financial statements from 2002 to 2008, MRV said.
A board-chosen committee of independent directors, outside legal counsel and accountants will conduct the review, and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has also been notified.
MRV, which has had nine straight years of annual losses (MRVC:US), declined to comment beyond the statement, Maria Riley, an outside spokeswoman for the company, said in a telephone interview.

Snam SpA in Consortium with The Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Pte Ltd and Electricite de France SA Sign Definitive Agreement with Total SA for Acquisition of TIGF
Snam SpA announced that the Consortium constituted by Snam (45%), The Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Pte Ltd (GIC) (35%), and Electricite de France SA (EDF) (20%, through its dedicated assets for the dismantling of nuclear plants), has entered into a definitive agreement with the Total SA group for the acquisition of its gas transport and storage business in the South-West of France – TIGF (Transport et Infrastructures Gaz France). TIGF represents a strategic platform for the interconnection of the European gas markets, thus contributing to their further liquidity and guaranteeing security of supplies to France and Europe. Based in Pau and locally managed, TIGF employs approximately 500 persons and operates a 5,000 km-long gas pipeline network and two important gas storage sites in Lussagnet and Izaute. On February 5, 2013, the Consortium and Total had entered into exclusive negotiations in respect of this potential acquisition. Closing of the transaction remains subject to approvals by relevant regulatory and antitrust authorities.

The evaluations suggested that because the A.C.E. did not identify a substantial number of these overcounting errors (mostly duplicates), the use of the original A.C.E. data to adjust the census could lead to overstating the population. Therefore the Census Bureau recommended against adjustment of the 2000 complete-count and long-form-sample data used for fund allocation and other purposes (Executive Steering Committee for A.C.E. Policy, 2001b).
Two principal evaluations of the E-sample identified problems with the classification of erroneous enumerations in the A.C.E. The first was the Evaluation Follow-up Study (EFU), in which field staff, using a more detailed interview than in the original A.C.E., revisited a subsample of the E-sample housing units in one-fifth of the A.C.E. block clusters to determine who should have been counted there. The EFU subsample was about 70,000 people; it was subsequently reduced to 17,500 people for a detailed clerical review that focused on unresolved cases (Adams and Krejsa, 2001; Krejsa and Raglin, 2001). The second evaluation was the Person Duplication Studies, which included computer matching of E-sample records by name and date of birth to census enumerations nationwide. This matching could be conducted because optical character recognition technology used by the Bureau for the first time in 2000 to process the questionnaires made it feasible to include names on all of the computerized sample records. The results of the EFU clerical review and the Person Duplication Studies were combined to develop an estimate of 2.9 million duplicates and other erroneous enumerations in the census that were not measured in the original A.C.E. (Fay, 2001). Such cases included college students who were counted both at their college dormitory and at their parents' household; prisoners who were counted both at prison and at their family's residence; children in joint custody who were counted in the homes of both parents; and people with more than one house, such as those who lived part of the year in the South or West and the rest of the year in the North or Midwest.
The results of Fay (2001) were used by Thompson et al. (2001) to construct revised preliminary estimates of the 2000 net undercount.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

I wish I would awaken one day with the desire to clean and declutter. I have to begrudgingly force myself to do those dreaded tasks!ReplyDelete

Surf the wave! I get urges like that too and I must say, my house and garage are now the better for it.ReplyDelete
I decluttered an electric meat grinder that was totally crappy the other day. Put it on le Bon Coin, got a call within minutes after it went online and met the guy after work to swap money for item. I think he was going to sell it on so I didn't bother telling him it was a piece of crap. What do you expect for €10 anyway? :)
Well, given the fact that Pesach (Passover) is less than 9 days away, I need to get in my spring cleaning mode NOW!ReplyDelete

I have lived here for 7 years with my very materialist sister. I found someone to help us declutter, but she is moving the end of May. I just hope we have it done by then. I have an old printer, too. Seven years worth of stuff really adds up.ReplyDelete

Video: DJ Pauly D f/ Jay Sean – 'Back to Love'
DJ Pauly D hits the runway with Jay Sean in the video for his debut single "Back to Love." The "Jersey Shore" star flirts with the models backstage at a fashion show, while his Cash Money co-star has his eye on one particular girl.
"I'm really interested in all the models and Jay's the one who's falling back to love," said Pauly, who came up with the concept himself. "He sees a girl that he knows and she's one of the models, so there's a lot of feelings going on over there, and I'm just checking the chicks out."
Pauly is signed to 50 Cent's G-Note label. "Working with 50 and being signed to G-Note is one of the most amazing things that ever happened in my life," he told Rap-Up TV. "50's a great guy, very hands-on in everything that he does. He's very smart."
Watch love make its way down the catwalk.

HANOI -- Vietnam on Sunday signed a deal with firms from
Japan and Kuwait to build an oil refinery complex worth nearly
$9 billion as part of efforts to meet its growing energy
The Nghi Son refinery, which is due to start
operating by 2017 in Thanh Hoa province, about 125 miles south
of Hanoi, will turn Kuwaiti oil into gasoline and other
petroleum products.
It will be able to process 10 million tpy of crude oil, the
government said.
State-owned PetroVietnam will own a 25.1% stake in the joint
venture while Japan's Idemitsu Kosan and Kuwait Petroleum

will own the remaining 4.7%.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, Vietnamese Prime Minister
Nguyen Tan Dung hailed the project as "very important" for the
communist country's economic and social development, according
to a government statement.
Vietnam has offshore oil reserves but still spends several
billion dollars each year to import petroleum products to feed
its growing economy.

PetroVietnam has said that it hopes the two refineries would
satisfy 65% of the nation's oil and gas needs. It is also
preparing for a third refinery project in southern Ba Ria-Vung Tau

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

National security
DHS Appropriations
Hanabusa voted against HR 2217 - the DHS Appropriations Act (2014) Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines.[9]
Keystone Pipeline Amendment
Hanabusa voted in favor of House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[9]
Hanabusa voted in favor of HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill would allow federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities.[10] The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[9]
Hanabusa voted in support of HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[9]
Farm bill
On January 29, 2014, the U.S. House approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, also known as the Farm Bill.[11] The bill passed by a vote of 251-166. The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that would kick in when prices drop.[12][13] However, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[13] Hanabusa voted with 88 other Democratic representatives in favor of the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 15, 2014, the Republican-run House approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[14][15] The House voted 359-67 for the 1,582 page bill, with 64 Republicans and three Democrats voting against the bill.[15] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[16] It included a 1 percent increase in the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel, a $1 billion increase in Head Start funding for early childhood education, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency and protected the Affordable Care Act from any drastic cuts. Hanabusa joined with the majority of the Democratic party and voted in favor of the bill.[14][15]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[17] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[18] Hanabusa voted against the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[19]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[20] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Hanabusa voted for HR 2775.[21]
Pay during government shutdown
Hanabusa declined to accept her salary while the government was shutdown.[22]
Federal Pay Adjustment Act
Hanabusa voted against HR 273 - Eliminates the 2013 Statutory Pay Adjustment for Federal Employees. The bill passed the House on February 15, 2013, with a vote of 261 - 154. The bill would prevent a 0.5% pay increase for all federal workers from taking effect, saving the federal government $11 billion over 10 years.[9]
Morton Memos Prohibition
Hanabusa voted against House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States. The vote largely followed party lines.[9]
Healthcare Reform Rules
Hanabusa voted against House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.[9]
Keep the IRS Off Your Healthcare Act
Hanabusa voted against HR 2009 - Keep the IRS Off Your Healthcare Act of 2013. The bill passed through the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 232-185. The bill would prevent the IRS and Treasury Secretary from enforcing the powers provided to them in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The vote largely followed party lines.[9]
Social issues
Amash amendment
Hanabusa voted against House Amendment 413 - Prohibits the National Security Agency from Collecting Records Under the Patriot Act. The amendment failed on July 4, 2013, by a vote of 205-217. The amendment would have prohibited the collection of records by the National Security Agency under the Patriot Act. Both parties were split on the vote.[9]

Hanabusa voted for the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. She was 1 of 172 Democrats that voted in favor of the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.[23]
Hanabusa was late U.S. Senator Daniel Inouye's preferred successor. However on December 26, 2012, Governor Neil Abercrombie denied Inouye his deathbed request by naming his Lieutenant Governor, Brian E. Schatz (D), to fill the vacancy.[24][25] Despite being picked over for the appointment, Hanabusa will run for election to the remainder of the term in 2014,[26][27][28] when the governor is also up for election. Hanabusa announced her decision to run for the U.S. Senate seat on May 2, 2013.[29][30]
As reported in The Hill on December 27, 2012, she was for a time considered a potential Democratic challenger to Abercrombie in the 2014 gubernatorial primary election.[31][32]
The widow of Hawaii Senator Daniel K. Inouye endorsed Democratic Rep. Hanabusa's bid against Sen. Brian Schatz (D), a move she said honors one of the late senator's "last requests."[33] In a statement Irene Hirano Inouye said, "Shortly after she was elected President of the Hawaii State Senate, Dan recognized that Colleen was more than capable of succeeding him and he began to mentor her. His last wish was that Colleen serve out his term because he was confident in her ability to step into the Senate and immediately help Hawaii. I am honoring one of his last requests, and look forward to supporting Colleen on the campaign trail."[33]
Hanabusa's deputy chief of staff, Christopher Raymond, in an e-mail sent June 28 discussed that the nation's top drug lobby had agreed to run a campaign supporting the congresswoman's challenge to Sen. Brian Schatz and wanted to coordinate it with her strategists.[34] Such an effort could be in violation of campaign finance laws, which prohibit candidates and their staff from substantial discussions with interest groups about their independent political activities.[34]
Officials with the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) and Hanabusa's campaign denied that the group had offered to run such an effort but acknowledged talks about a possible fundraiser for Hanabusa and about the state of the race in general.[34]
Campaign officials blamed the e-mail on a misinformed staffer, saying, "He made inaccurate assumptions about the type of help PhRMA could provide the campaign," according to campaign spokesman Peter Boylan.[34]
Matt Bennett, a spokesman for PhRMA, said officials there did not offer to do a campaign on Hanabusa's behalf, but that the group had "preliminary" discussions about hosting an industry fundraiser for Hanabusa through its political action committee.[34] He also said that a PhRMA lobbyist had spoken with Jennifer Sabas, a top Hanabusa campaign adviser, but that they had talked only about the state of the Democratic primary campaign in Hawaii.
Boylan echoed that, saying Sabas did not provide PhRMA with any information "that would constitute coordination in violation of the law."[34]
PhRMA wants to unseat incumbent Brian Schatz because he supports legislation that would require drug makers to reinstate prescription drug rebates for people eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid.[35][36] Hanabusa is opposed to the bill, and has signed a letter saying drug companies would pass on the cost of the rebate to consumers.[36]
Raymond, Hanabusa's deputy chief of staff, resigned August 7, 2013, a day after a Federal Election Commission complaint was filed against him.[37][38]
"I have not violated any campaign finance laws, and it is unfortunate what a distraction this misunderstanding has become," Raymond said in a statement. "Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa is the most qualified person to serve as Hawaii's next U.S. senator, and I have been honored and privileged to work for her."[38]
Hanabusa ran successfully for re-election to the U.S. House, representing Hawaii's 1st District in 2012. Hanabusa won the nomination on the Democratic ticket after defeating Roy F. Wyttenbach II in the primary.[3][39] The signature filing deadline was June 5, 2012, with the primary taking place on August 11, 2012. Hanabusa then defeated Charles Djou (R) in the general election on November 6, 2012.[40][3]

The aim of the Personal Gain Index (PGI) is to shine a light on how members of the U.S. Congress may benefit from their tenure as public servants. Researchers at the Government Accountability Institute will look at four different metrics pointing to aspects of self-enrichment.
The PGI will consist of the following metrics:
- Net worth
- How much did a member's net worth increase or decrease over a specified period?
- The K-Street metric (coming soon)
- What percentage of a member's staff were previously lobbyists?
- Donation concentration (coming soon)
- What industries are contributing the most to each member?
- Stock trading (coming soon)
- What stocks are each member holding in their portfolio?

Robert Menendez on Principles & Values
Democratic Jr Senator; previously Representative (NJ-13)
Menendez has survived the minefield of indictment-prone Hudson County politics. First there were the murky waters inundating the Union City Board of Education. As a 19-year-old, Menendez was elected to the board and then served as its secretary. In that capacity Menendez testified before a federal grand jury investigating the board and Union City mayor William Musto. Menendez called him his "political father" but cut the paternal link, later testifying against Musto, who was sentenced in 1982 to federal prison on corruption charges.
Menendez was elected Union City mayor in 1986, and re-elected in 1990. He was in his second term when he was chosen to succeed the late Christopher Jackman in the state Senate in 1991. From there, Menendez was elected in 1992 to the House of Representatives and was re-elected six times.
Thank you, Governor-elect. This is a privilege I will work tirelessly every day to honor. Along with our soon-to-be senior Senator Frank Lautenberg, you have shown what it means to be a powerful advocate for our state in Washington, and I know you will lead us to even greater days when you take office in Trenton. I look forward to working with you in the days ahead to meet the challenges faced by this state and unlock opportunity for all of our citizens.
Senator Lautenberg, thank you for your leadership. I have a lot to learn from you, and I look forward to working as the junior Senator for many years to come with someone who has so much respect in the U.S. Senate. Governor Codey, thank you for the leadership you provided in a difficult time.
I have walked in the shoes of the average New Jerseyan all my life, and I know the challenges they face. I began a life in public service because I believed that one person committed to change could make a difference.
"In the past month, many Senators have asked me about my judicial philosophy. It is simple: fidelity to the law. The task of a judge is not to make the law--it is to apply the law. And it is clear, I believe, that my record in two courts reflects my rigorous commitment to interpreting the Constitution according to its terms; interpreting statutes according to their terms and Congress's intent; and hewing faithfully to precedents established by the Supreme Court and my Circuit Court. In each case I have heard, I have applied the law to the facts at hand."
The Adherents.com website is an independent project and is not supported by or affiliated with any organization (academic, religious, or otherwise).
Such factors as religious service attendance, belief, practice, familiarity with doctrine, belief in certain creeds, etc., may be important to sociologists, religious leaders, and others. But these are measures of religiosity and are usually not used academically to define a person's membership in a particular religion. It is important to recognize there are various levels of adherence, or membership within religious traditions or religious bodies. There's no single definition, and sources of adherent statistics do not always make it clear what definition they are using.
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) is an informal group of 18 members of Congress of Hispanic descent. The Caucus is dedicated to voicing and advancing, through the legislative process, issues affecting Hispanic Americans in the US and the insular areas. The CHC was founded in December 1976 as a legislative service organization of the US House. Today, the CHC is organized as a congressional member organization, governed under the Rules of Congress and comprised solely of Members of the US Congress.
Although every issue that affects the quality of life of Americans is of concern to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, there are national and international issues that have a particular impact on the Hispanic community. The function of the Caucus is to serve as a forum for the Hispanic Members of Congress to coalesce around a collective legislative agenda. In addition to covering legislative action, the CHC also monitors Executive and Judicial policies that affect Hispanics.
OnTheIssues.org interprets the 2006 AU scores as follows:
Americans United for Separation of Church and State (AU) is a religious liberty watchdog group based in Washington, D.C. Founded in 1947, the organization educates Americans about the importance of church-state separation in safeguarding religious freedom. AU is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to preserving the constitutional principle of church-state separation as the only way to ensure religious freedom for all Americans.
Americans United is a national organization with members in all 50 states. We are headquartered in Washington, D.C., and led by the Rev. Barry W. Lynn, executive director. AU has more than 75,000 members from all over the country. They include people from all walks of life and from various faith communities, as well as those who profess no particular faith. We are funded by donations from our members and others who support church-state separation. We do not seek, nor would we accept, government funding.
