A grassroots group called the Ports-To-Plains Alliance has weighed in today on the Keystone XL Pipeline controversy. Despite widespread public support for the pipeline, which would move oil from Canada's tar sands region to the US for refining and add to the overall world supply of oil, President Barack Obama scuttled the pipeline earlier this year. That move probably destroyed an estimated 20,000 jobs and tilted Canada toward selling its oil to China.
Obama put off final decision on the pipeline until after the 2012 elections. He has not reopened discussion of the pipeline since he was narrowly re-elected.
But TransCanada has proposed a new route for the pipeline that avoids the Nebraska Sandhills, and the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality is seeking comment before it drafts its report on the new route. Port-To-Plains Alliance, which is made up of more than 100 local elected officials and community leaders, has today offered its "strong support" for the Keystone XL Pipeline.

Using Center Stage Bracket sheves for speakers
Center Stage Bracket shelves to mount the speakers on the top part of the monitor. The shelves were intended to mount satellite speakers or to mount a XBox Kinect camera on top of a flat panel TV, but this application works perfectly. I used two of the CSB-0505 shelves, now my desk is clear for taking notes, reading references, or for my coffee cup.

Economy for the Nissan Titan
Over the past few months, I have installed a few aftermarket items on my 2007 4WD Nissan Titan with tow package. My goal was more efficiency, not necessarily better gas mileage. Most of my driving is done locally, but I made a 325 mile trip over the weekend. I was pleased that I had better than 1/4 of the tank left. When I checked the mileage, I had gotten 17.75 mpg. My previous best was 14.5. The parts include the following:
- Jet 69138 MAS
- Hypertech 62001 Max Energy
- Airaid 520-152 Cold Air Intake
- a tri-fold tonneau cover

I am disappointed...
The election of Barrack Obama as President of the United States leaves me very disappointed. Not that I was a big fan of Senator John McCain because of "moderate" stands, but he was a better choice than Obama.
Politically speaking, I consider myself a Christian first, a conservative second and a Republican third. It is not that I would never vote for a Democrat, but I could never vote for a Democrat that holds the values of the currect Democrat Party. That being said, there was no real choice but to vote for McCain.
I could never vote for Obama simply because I could never vote for a candidate that believes that killing a baby in its mother's womb is a woman's "choice". It doesn't matter how smart he is, how many great ideas he has or anything else. He believes that it is O.K. for a doctor to kill a baby. Concerning my vote, there is no choice here.But now he is my president. And he has my pledge... to pray for him and his administration. I pray that God will open his eyes... and that he will hear God's voice and obey.

Inspiring words from women
I am currently working on a body of work for an art show i have to put on in March. My theme is the Divine Feminine and the Mother Goddess. My paintings depict a very soft organic perspective of the female figure, exploring symbolism linked with the Great Mother and Devine Feminine. Each painting shows a mother figure, a goddess deifying the female as the nurturer of life. I want the female figures to immortalize and celebrate the female form, to depict the well-known spiritual aspect of the "Divine Feminine" in flesh, as the bond and as the essential balance for our earth. Painting very sexy and "spirit-esque" nude females is my way of illustrating not only how motherhood has changed my life, but elevated my respect for the "Divine Feminine" and the Goddess within all females.
I am hoping to have you women out there give me some word of inspiration, some insight to individual perspectives of the Divine Feminine and/or the Mother Goddess. Much love and Peace!

Australia's Tinto Post $3 Billion Loss For 2012
LONDON (AP) â¿¿ Anglo-Australian mining group Rio Tinto PLC posted a $3 billion loss for 2012 after taking a $14 billion writedown from its aluminum business and the acquisition of a coal company in Mozambique.
The loss â¿¿ compared to a profit of $5.8 million in 2011 â¿¿ came after two senior executives stepped down last month after acknowledging that developing infrastructure in Mozambique was more challenging than expected. It also needed to cut its estimates of recoverable coal volumes.
Underlying earnings dropped 40 percent to $9.3 billion because of falling commodities prices. Revenue from operations declined 40 percent to $16.5 billion.
Sam Walsh, the new chief executive, announced plans to cut costs by $5 billion at the world's third-largest diversified mining company.

adidas Men's Springblade Running Shoe 51 51
Super comfortable but first pair ripped within 60 days I have really bad feet, overpronated and a nagging stress fracture. These where the only shoes that really didn't hurt my feet. I love the way they feel. They ripped on the side after 60 days and I returned them to Dick's and they replaced them with a new pair. Dick's stands behind their products. December 22, 2014
addias spring blades i love the sneakers but there is a defect in the sole - this has been my 4th pair - the front bottom becomes disbonded to the shoe. December 4, 2014
Do not buy! Do not buy if you trail run or are hard on your shoes, if you live in a place where it snows the snow clumps between the blades, and also the front part comes off after about 3 months, leaving you with only half of the blades. Blades sometimes snap (happened to me twice). OVERALL DO NOT BUY! November 14, 2014
GREAT SHOE Most comfortable shoes . Great for running and hiking. September 7, 2014
!AMAZING! THESE SHOES ARE LIKE AMAZING SHOES FOR GODS, THEY MAKE YOU RUN SUPER FAST AND YOU CAN JUMP AT LEAST TEN FEET IN THE AIR WITH THEM. I LOOOOOOOOOOVE THEM. BEST SHOES EVER MADE AND EVER WILL BE MADE! August 27, 2014
Coolest shoes ever! I purchased these as father's day gift and my boyfriend loves them. Its the only pair he wears now..everywhere. He cannot believe how comfortable they are. The yellow (electricity) color is an eye catcher!! Every time he wears he gets tons of compliments. Thinking of buying the pink for myself. Dick's is the best place to get them, at the best price..and the shipping was super fast. June 17, 2014
Looks cool...very uncomfortable though Difficult to wear due to their rigid frame. I wore them to six flags and my dogs were worn out by 5:00. They look very cool but wear equally as uncomfortably. July 30, 2014
Tech fit Was exited to try out these new sneakers when I got home. Over all they were comfortable when warring them on a smooth surface! But was very disappointed when I wore them on a mountain trail! The rubber on bottom of sneaker didn't hold up very well! July 22, 2014
Best shoe i have ever owned. LOVE THEM!!!!!! I weigh 350lbs no running but walk 5 miles a day at work. Was breaking in a pair of air max and hurt my feet so bad I went to dicks and bought the blades wore around store and foot pain went away. Wear everyday cant feel uneven ground which caused pain before I have extremely flat feet and my ankles don't hurt at end of day. I buy shoes and then change inserts I still have these as they came out of box. THANK YOU ADIDAS I am buying another pay next week. July 22, 2014
Very comfortable footwear, worth the bucks! I am enjoying these shoes, more for the looks, but great support for the knees too! I have purchased the Adidas megaride, gigaride styles in the past, and these blades are more comfortable. Love the color mix and thinking about purchase the soft gray and light orange mix too.

Down near the Alpine Lodge, I grab a quick coffee after having dealt with First Aid calls and general maintenance of the ski area all morning. Having received over thirty centimetres of snow the night before and over eighty centimetres in the past four days, the trees dotted all along the resort are covered in a hard rime, converting them to the iconic snow ghosts of Mount Washington. However, with this also comes the task of clearing the boundary lines and bamboo of the same ice, thoughts of unfinished areas go through my mind as I make my way towards the Eagle chair. Just moments earlier, the avalanche control team had given the go ahead for opening of the Outback after a long early morning of concentrating on making sure the front side of the mountain was safe for the public.
As we load up, a call over the radio echoes another report of a rider down on the Sunrise side. Despite not being in the best position to respond to the request, I call into dispatch with my number and location, never knowing if everyone else is already tied up. Thankfully, a patroller having just unloaded the Sunrise chair is able to respond and another is standing by with a Toboggan, just in case. As the radio chatter dies and we're given the okay to stand down from dispatch, two more patrollers ski below us on the Eagle lift line, bundles of bamboo in their arms and various lengths of rope attached to their backpacks. And yet another task that was laid out at our morning meeting comes back to me: due to the amount of snow we've received over the past few days, the lift line approaches dangerously close to skiers head just above Powder Face and a boundary will need to be put in place until a Pisten Bully snowcat can get in there and clear some of the snow away.
"Hard life, skiing all day, hey?" pipes in one of the members of public on the chair with me as the patrollers below us continue to carve their way down.
I laugh and nod, because in all honesty, it's somewhat true. Instead of having to walk down office hallways to head to meeting rooms or return to our cubicles, we're lucky enough to get to ski or snowboard between and to our jobs. Sometimes this will be five quick turns before stopping, other times, cycling to various parts of the mountain. Sure, on slower days where there hasn't been a whole lot of new snow or on days where there are few members of public on the mountain, we may get in a few more turns than usual. But on days like today, the addition of all this new snow and an eager public wanting to get lap after lap in, there always seems to be something to do. The moment you think you might be done with your task, another call from dispatch goes out over the radio requesting for additional patrollers to help out on something else.
As we unload, I bid everyone on the chair a good day and check the time at the unload. 1:50 PM. Perfect timing to relieve the other patroller for the bump shift at the top of the Eagle. Always having someone high on the mountain at our various bump shacks allows us to have a reserve of patrollers who are able to respond to all locations on the mountain if needed. As an added bonus, this shift at the top of the lifts grants us the opportunity on colder or wetter days a much needed respite to warm up or dry off. Today, it gives me enough time to grab a quick bite to eat and make a few notes of tasks that will need to be done for tomorrow, as well as go through our rope evacuation kits to make sure everything is in working order.
And almost as if time has fast forwarded, patrollers start piling into the bump shack as the few remaining patrons get their last runs in and the lifts slow to a halt. The run sweeps are divvied up between those who are available, and today, I get to head to the Top of the World and make sure it's clear before heading into the West Basin. After radioing down to let everyone know that the area is clear of public, I dive down and begin to hear the tell tale call of the end of the day ringing throughout the mountain: "PATROL SWEEP, MOUNTAIN IS CLOSING".
And as we all zig-zag our way back to the First Aid room, the sun slowly sets behind us and the terrain around Mount Washington starts to dim. Another day of work almost completed on the mountain and exhaustion starts to set in as we pile around to do our end of day meeting. Unfinished tasks and new jobs are added to the Hill Coordination sheet for the next day, making sure nothing gets left unfinished or overlooked. Another day on the mountain awaits us tomorrow. Another day where we get to put our skis and snowboards on for a living.

Burberry fir
January 17, 2014
Reviewer: Gail Kendrick from Wytheville, VA United States
I have now purchased 5 of your wonderful Christmas trees and love them all. Yes I usually put up 8-10 trees each having a different theme displaying ornaments that my friends and family have given me . As time. Moves on and a tree needs replaced I order yours. In 2013 I ordered one of your Burberry Fir trees for my mothers birthday in February and looked forward to iChristmas to put it up. It was beautiful and a perfect fit. I loved it and had to get one for me to replace a tree that I used for years as my angel tree .am looking forward to 2014 Christmas to display all my angels on this beautiful tree . Thank you so very much. Your company is wonderful to work with, wonderful prices for very well made trees.

The Burberry Fir fits my corner space perfectly!
December 25, 2013
Reviewer: Laurie B. from Vista, California
When I first opened the box (which was delivered in record speed), I thought I should have splurged for the more realistic type of needles. However, after assembling this slimmest of slim trees, I am extremely pleased. The two-tone, rust-colored branch tips contrast nicely with the dark-green needles (narrow flat strips of PVC). The branches require some adjusting to create a lush and full appearance, which is not surprising. The lights are great and the on/off foot pedal switch is very convenient. The only minor difficulty I had was tightening the bottom bolt that anchors the tree to the stand. The tree isn't 100 percent straight, but nobody is going to notice. Overall, I really like this tree. It looks terrific decorated and it is exactly what I wanted.

We absolutely love this tall, narrow Burberry Fir tree for our small front room! It was easy to set up, looks real,and decorates so easily! We discovered that it looks elegant literally covered with vine sprigs, ornaments, and poinsetties! Because of its girth, my husband who usually does not enjoy decorating the tree was totally into it!

Nice Pencil Tree!
December 3, 2013
Reviewer: Cyndi W from Hot Springs, AR United States
I really like my new pre-lit pencil tree - looks so nice in a corner - don't have to move furniture to accommodate a tree now - I can easily handle it myself, easy to put together and is a snap to decorate - looks really nice!

Reviewer: Danette Peach from Godfrey, IL United States
The trees lights are not evenly distributed; they cluster in sections and are spare in other areas. The branches are irregular in length and do not give a nice appearance and the tree wobbles in the stand. It cannot be tightened too securely due to the quality of the metal rod, which dents easily and causes the tree to lean. Overall, I am disappointed in this purchase. The only positive is the number of branches and lights provided.

Reviewer: Janice from North Hills, CA United States
The pencil tree is of very good quality and fits the space I have. However, I was disappointed in how skinny it is. It could have been a little wider at the bottom tapering up to a narrow top. It is basically one diameter for the entire height of the tree. I will try to make it look fuller by adding ribbon garlands, etc.

Perfect for a small home
February 5, 2013
Reviewer: Mathew Schaffer from Narberth, PA United States
We have a 600sqft apartment so this tree was perfect! It's skinny but still quite full and looked really nice when decorated. Probably only took up about a 9sqft space once it was all set up with a tree skirt and everything.
The kids loved it. Looking forward to putting it up again next Christmas!

Perfect tree!!
November 29, 2012
Reviewer: Jan from Louisiana
I had a narrow space (29in) for a Christmas tree so I ordered this tree. It's a perfect fit and a perfect tree! The stand is very sturdy and the tree stands perfectly straight (no leaning) The tree was easy to put together, full, you don't see the center pole or see through the tree. I took a chance ordering a tree online and I'm glad I did. So many compliments! Love this tree!

Q: I have always used the word "peruse" to indicate a skimming through. But I was recently told that the word actually refers to a thorough reading, which, according to the dictionary and to my surprise, is correct. Was I ever right? (I have heard others use "peruse" to indicate a skimming through.) What is the word's history?
A: Sorry, you lose on "peruse." It means to read thoroughly, not to skim through. The Oxford English Dictionary's earliest reference dates to the late 15th century, when the word meant to go through or examine a number of things one by one, or to use up or wear out something. It has meant to read thoroughly or examine in detail since the early 16th century.
The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language says "peruse" comes from an old word in Middle English, "perusen," which meant to use up. The American Heritage has an informative usage note on "peruse."
If it's any consolation, many, many people misuse "peruse."

TransUnion provides credit information and information management services.
TransUnion provides service to approximately 45,000 businesses and approximately 500 million consumers worldwide. It is also the third-largest credit bureau in the United States. Like major competitors Equifax and Experian, TransUnion markets credit reports directly to consumers. The company is based in Chicago, Illinois and its revenue in 2011 was US$ 1.024 billion.
In 1968, the Union Tank Car Company, a railcar leasing operation, created TransUnion as its parent holding company. In 1969, the company acquired the Credit Bureau of Cook County (CBCC), which manually maintained 3.6 million card files in 400 seven-drawer cabinets. Soon after the acquisition of CBCC, it became the first company in the credit reporting industry to replace accounts receivable data with automated tape-to-disc transfer, drastically cutting the time and cost to update consumer files. Early in its history, the company created the first online information storage and retrieval data processing system. This system provided credit grantors across the country with one source for fast and valuable consumer credit information.
1970s and 1980s[edit]
Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, TransUnion continued to expand their facilities and capabilities through investments in technology and acquisitions. In 1988, it achieved full coverage in the United States, maintaining and updating information on virtually every market-active consumer in the country.
Throughout the 1990s and the turn of the millennium, TransUnion extended operations beyond the credit reporting industry and business-to-business offerings.
TransUnion entered the direct-to-consumer market with the acquisition of TrueCredit.com in 2002. Today, its operations extend to 33 countries worldwide.
In 1982, TransUnion was acquired as a subsidiary of Marmon Group, a holding company formed by Jay Pritzker and Robert Pritzker. It was spun off as a separate company under Pritzker control in 2005. The wealthy Pritzker family, most famous for owning the Hyatt hotel chain, began divesting the family's assets in late 2001 following the death of Jay Pritzker. Notable major divestitures include Hyatt Hotels Corp. public in 2009 and selling majority stake in TransUnion in 2010.[1]
In April 2010, the Pritzker family, with Penny Pritzker as TransUnion Chair, sold controlling interest of TransUnion to a new majority owner, the Chicago-based private-equity firm Madison Dearborn Partners.[2] Madison Dearborn Partners acquired 51 percent stake in TransUnion, and the Pritzker family maintained 49 percent ownership.
On February 17, 2012, Madison Dearborn Partners and the Pritzker family sold the company to Advent International and Goldman Sachs Capital Partners. [3]
In 2003, Judy Thomas of Klamath Falls, Oregon, was awarded $5.3 million in a successful lawsuit against TransUnion. The award was made on the grounds that it took her six years to get TransUnion to remove incorrect information in her credit report.[4]
In 2006, after spending two years trying to correct erroneous credit information that resulted from being a victim of identity theft, a fraud victim named Sloan filed suit against all three of the USA's largest credit agencies. TransUnion and Experian settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. In Sloan v. Equifax, a jury awarded Sloan $351,000. "She wrote letters. She called them. They saw the problem. They just didn't fix it," said attorney A. Hugo Blankingship III of Blankingship & Associates in Alexandria, Virginia.[5]

Hangouts review
Hangouts is an Android and iOS app from Google. It's now available on Google Play and the App Store and carries no additional in-app purchases.
Google's new Hangouts app is the next evolution of their Talk app. When first downloading Hangouts, Google informs the user that this new program will replace Talk. Users who frequently use Talk may be a bit hesitant to make the switch, but once they download and start using Hangouts, it becomes obvious that it is more than just a new version of Talk. Instead, Hangouts combines the simplicity of Talk with the level of interaction Google has been growing within Google+ Hangouts.
When first opening Hangouts, users may be prompted to sign in if they are not already. Once they have logged on, users are greeted to a screen that shows off their most frequently contacted friends on Google+, along with their entire list of contacts (both from Google+ and imported from mobile devices). Users can interact with any of their contacts by pressing their name on the list, or by using the search bar. The search bar can find current contacts via name, email, or number, and can add new contacts in the same way. Users can also connect with entire circles at once, but are not able to edit circles directly from the Hangouts app.
Once contacts and circles are selected, users are given two options: "Message" and "video call." Messaging works just like Google Talk's instant messaging. Two Google users can send text-based messages to each other over the Hangouts app and in a web browser. Communication between the app and browsers is nearly flawless. The only noticeable issue with messaging is how the emoticons in Hangouts will often not load for users in a web browser. Most users won't find this to be a problem, but those who rely on heavy use of emoticons may be somewhat disappointed. (more…)

Prop. 31 is bad for California
Thursday, October 11th, 2012
Issue 41, Volume 16.
The Federation has its own legislative analyst, who, along with a growing number of others including GOP leaders, finds this proposition to be a wolf in sheeps clothing – 8,000 (doctoral level) words long. Watch out!
Initially, the language looks good, transparency, budget improvements, but dont be misled. As you wade through the rest of the words, youll find "regionalism," "redistribution" of our revenues, a new bureaucracy, questions affecting our state constitution, additional expenses – all bad for our communities and our state.
If you follow it back to its funding, the man backing this proposition is Nicolas Berggruen, founder of the Berggruen Institute for "Global Governance." Global governance?

Vulture Festival: Watch Adam Scott Discuss the Lost 90210 Edition of Greatest Event
Rob Lowe as Jason Priestley. Elizabeth Banks as Jennie Garth. And Brian Austin Green as Brian Austin Green.

Rob Lowe as Jason Priestley. Elizabeth Banks as Jennie Garth. And Brian Austin Green as Brian Austin Green.
Tori Spelling, Jason Priestley, and writer Larry Mollin explain why it took her seven seasons to give it up.
It was his first onscreen kiss.
"When we made it, we had no idea it would be that huge."
It's ending May 13.
It'll be his acting debut.
On Saved by the Bell, Degrassi, and 90210.
It awkwardly incorporates a "jeah."
Jeah, as absolutely no one but Ryan Lochte says.
The crossover begins.
Not Gossip Girl, though.
What reality show mesmerizes kids ages 2-5? How many NBC shows does it take to equal the audience for NCIS?
Eddie Vedder, total Mean Girl!
This explains a lot.
A momentous occasion.
Plus: Bad news for Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.
Producers of the 'Dallas' revival, take note.
A very accurate, excellent homage.
Get in the sideburn-y, high-waisted-jeans spirit.
Call them Luke Perry and Jason Priestly if you must.
We study 'Glee,' 'Sixteen Candles,' 'Beverly Hills 90210,' and seven more to rate the accuracy of nerdy portrayals.
The CW today put in early orders for new seasons of 'The Vampire Diaries,' 'Gossip Girl,' '90210,' 'America's Next Top Model,' and 'Supernatural.'
Did she or didn't she?
Trekkies, hold tight.

Expire date for Sites, Customers and Resellers
I think it is a useful Feature.
So I can assign an demo account and don0t worry to forget disable it in a date.
It's possible to take pay due accounts into forced expire date too. (previous notification to customer, of course.)
As far as I know,you can disable user's account by setting expire date in FC User & Group control panel. But, since ISPConfig doesn't create any user account for Web site,reseller and client, I don't think we can achieve this goal at present. Maybe Folko has the solution for it.
For this functionality are no system user accounts needed. ISPConfig has to store the expiration date in the database and the nightly conjobs can disable the login.
This is the function we need. Besides, in additon to storing expiration date in database,ISPConfig should also sends an email notification to the site's administrator 7 days before the expiring date.

Shayron's Lace
Shayron's Lace is a circular shawl or scarf made with lace-weight yarn. It is worked side to side for the denser body, and the laciest parts are worked along the outer curve when the top part is finished.
This month begins a new collaboration between Gina Lynette and Julie Blagojevich. Gina has kindly agreed to test my designs, and she began with Shayron's Lace. She has also given the pattern a complete makeover! I think you will be very pleased with the beautiful new graphic designs in the pattern. In addition, Gina has provided crocheters with "recipe" advice. If you would like to use a heavier weight of yarn or you would like to make the shawl shorter or longer, you will find Gina's notes on this most helpful. For those of you who want to slip a 1-page print copy in your project bag, Gina has also included a "print and go" page with all of the instructions and none of the photos. I am so excited to begin working with someone so talented!
After blocking, the shawl is 65 in. (165.1 cm) along the inner curve and 10 in. (25.4 cm) wide.
The following stitches were used: chain, double crochet, double crochet two together, double crochet three together, double treble crochet, half double crochet, single crochet, slip stitch, and treble crochet.
The pattern pdf includes 14 photos of the design as it develops as well as several photos of the completed shawl.
Shayron's Lace is named for my friend, Shayron, an excellent knitter and instructor, who taught me to knit not so very long ago.
Please send me a message if you have any questions about this design, or join our group, CrochetWorks. We love to chat about crochet and yarn:)

In Print: December 1, 2014
A rapid ascent from deep water to the surface means a rapid drop in pressure. That can expand a fish's swim bladder – the organ that helps a fish control its buoyancy – so much that it pushes other organs aside or even out a fish's mouth. Scientists have worried that this "barotrauma" might permanently harm a fish, making it harder for deep water fish to survive if they are released. Fortunately, at least one popular sport fish can overcome this trauma.
