NYC rent factors in an unnecessary broker fee http://thinkingofdoing.wordpress.com/2014/08/11/nyc-apartment-hunt/
NYC apartments vs. LA apartments: What can you get for $2,000?
NYC apartments are legendarily expensive and small. But would you really be any better off in LA?
Wed Jul 23 2014
CommentsAdd +
Finding a place to live in New York is, let's be honest, a nightmare (even with the help of our weekly look at the best affordable NYC apartments). New Yorkers often wonder what their living situation would be like elsewhere, so we've taken a look at a bunch of comparable neighborhoods in New York and LA to see if the West Coast has it any better than us. Below, you'll find 30 apartments—15 in New York, 15 in LA—all for around $2,000 per month. Who's getting the better deal? Surprisingly, it's not as cut and dried as you might think. But if you do walk away bummed at what Angelenos get for their money, just remember these 31 reasons New York kicks LA's ass (don't feel bad, they wrote their own version).

Neighborhood 1: The park
In New York's corner, we have Central Park, former no-go area turned No. 1 tourist attraction, with some of the most beautiful green spaces in the whole city. In L.A.'s corner, we have Los Feliz, a Village-y hub nestled at the foot of Griffith Park's canyons, trails and exercise devotees. We'll start by looking at three New York apartments, then see what L.A. has to offer (besides something that's probably covered in avocado).
New York: One-bedroom on the Upper West Side, $2,100/month
And we're off to a surprisingly strong start! (For a New York apartment hunt, at least.) This place has a separate bedroom and it's actually right next to the park, a literal stone's throw from the reservoir (so long as you're really good at throwing).
New York: Studio on the Upper East Side, $2,100/month
And then the more realistic side of NYC kicks in. Here, a little over two grand a month gets you just this studio. And while it's technically walking distance to the park, it's not exactly next door.
New York: Studio on Central Park South, $2,150/month
This one's right on the park, but again, it's a studio, and not a big one. It seems likely that L.A. will win this round on pure space and livability, but come on—it's Central Park! Surely that can't be beaten?
L.A.: Two-bedroom in Los Feliz, $1,950/month
Oh, so that's how it's going to be, L.A.? We trustingly show you our nice studio apartments and you come at us with a two-bedroom monster apartment with, like, carpets and a pool and, and, and furniture and…stuff? For under two grand? Whatever. You know why we like hardwood floors in NYC? There is no such thing as a wipe-clean carpet. Enjoy those red-wine stains, suckers!
L.A.: Two-bedroom in Los Feliz, $2,395/month
This one creeps into more familiar over-two-thousand territory, but for that, once again, you get two bedrooms, plus two bathrooms, laundry and, according to the listing, it's walking distance to horse stables. Horse stables! Is this a joke?
L.A.: Studio in Los Feliz, $2,076/month
A studio! That's more like it. We knew those other ones had to be flukes. Although the building's spa, fireside dining terrace and poolside cabanas do make it sound a little more attractive than a railroad in the Financial District with one window and a snooty doorman. You win this round, L.A.

Neighborhood 2: The kid-friendly area
Was there any doubt in your mind that repping NYC would be Stroller City itself, Park Slope? With its schools, tree-lined streets and proximity to Prospect Park, it's dogs-and-kids heaven. L.A.'s equivalent is Brentwood, where Lululemon-addicted moms are frequently bested in the street-style department by their fashion-forward offspring, rocking "I woke up like this" (literally, from their afternoon naps) hair.
New York: Studio in Park Slope, Brooklyn; $1,875/month
Kicking off our selection of three New York apartments is this studio, which sits on the very attractive and super child-friendly Seventh Avenue. But have you noticed the major drawback for someone with kids? It's a studio. Come on, Brooklyn, you can do better than this.
New York: Two-bedroom in Park Slope, Brooklyn; $2,100/month
Well, that's better—a two-bedroom on Seventh Ave (albeit right next to the hospital). It even, miraculously, has a washer and dryer.
New York: Studio in Park Slope, Brooklyn; $2,100/month
This is a more modern take on a Park Slope studio, complete with laundry in the building. It's a long way from the kid-friendly heart of the Slope, though, and again—it's a fricking studio. For $2,100 a month. Okay, L.A., let's see what you've got.
L.A.: Two-bedroom in Brentwood, $2,850/month
This is a pretty nice space, but L.A. get a penalty for straying perilously far from the close-to-$2,000-per-month stipulation. It does look like a nice place for kids, though.
L.A.: One-bedroom in Brentwood, $2,400/month
Another surprisingly lackluster showing here, with a one-bedroom costing more than any of our New York apartment options. On the other hand, of course, it has in-unit laundry and garage parking.
L.A.: One-bedroom in Brentwood, $1,995/month
The listing promises newly remodeled rooms, balconies and an elevator, but the pictures show us very, very little. Guess what? Going by what we've seen here, New York actually looks like a better city if you want to live in a kid-friendly neighborhood. We're going to celebrate the win by spiking up our warm milk.

Neighborhood 3: The hipster haven
When it comes to skinny jeans, fixies and unkempt beards, there is still no neighborhood in New York that beats Williamsburg, home of artisanal cheese, craft beer and many a potentially regrettable tattoo. That said, Greenpoint is a close second. Every city needs a hipster zone (for some reason), and L.A. is no exception, with Silver Lake serving as the base of the kombucha-swilling, irony-spewing Eastside Gentrification Army.
New York: Two-bedroom in Williamsburg, Brooklyn; $2,250/month
Just south of McCarren Park, seven or eight blocks from the Bedford Ave L stop, you can get this two-bedroom with a good-sized kitchen. Angelenos would probably balk at the price of this, but whether you think it deserves to be or not, Williamsburg is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the country right now. That means a two-bedroom for not much more than the price of a studio in Manhattan seems like a pretty good deal.
New York: One-bedroom in Williamsburg, Brooklyn; $2,250/month
It is possible to get a one-bedroom with reasonable space, but the bad news is, you're going to be on the outskirts of Williamsburg, which means you'll have to trek to get the most out of the neighborhood. But hey, that's what that skateboard's for, right?
New York: One-bedroom in Greenpoint, Brooklyn; $1,995/month
If you prefer Greenpoint, you can get a one-bedroom on Franklin Street for just under two grand a month. Now, with due sense of foreboding and dread, let's see what the L.A. hipsters get for their (inherited) money…
LA..: Studio in Silver Lake, $2,100/month
…not much, apparently. This 500-square-foot studio (with no pets allowed!) is far from the Apple-filled hipster palace we'd envisioned. They do get gas, water, Internet and cable TV included in that price, though.
L.A.: Two-bedroom in Silver Lake, $1,850/month
Okay, 900 square feet with two bedrooms for under two grand is probably closer to what we were expecting. Assigned parking, too. But wait, do hipsters even drive cars? Or just ethanol-fueled motorized unicycles?
L.A.: One-bedroom in Silver Lake, $1,875/month
The view from this pad definitely looks more attractive than Bedford Avenue, but it's still not a hugely impressive apartment. We're counting this as another victory for NYC. Sure, you get a little more space and better amenities for your money in L.A., but the difference isn't that huge, and frankly, if you're looking for a hipster neighborhood, Williamsburg is not going to be beaten by the likes of these places.

Neighborhood 4: The beach
Well, we had to give L.A. a chance at showing off the best of their home turf. That said, we actually have some amazing beaches—you can see our pick of the ten best beaches in New York City right here. L.A.'s got beachside neighborhoods in spades, though. Santa Monica, Marina del Rey, Venice…need we go on? Okay, fine. Malibu, Pacific Palisades, the South Bay… Let's start by seeing what NYC can give us.
New York: Two-bedroom in the Rockaways, Queens; $2,100/month
If you want to live on the beach but still have access to the city via subway, it's tough to argue with this two-bed in a luxury building, right by the sea and a couple blocks from 116th Street on the A. Bring it on, L.A.! (We're probably going to regret saying that.)
New York: One-bedroom on Long Beach, L.I.; $1,800/month
It's a one-bed, but it's also right on the ocean and it even has a sizeable (for New York) outdoor space. The beach category may be the surprise dark horse victory for New York here…
New York: One-bedroom on Long Beach, L.I.; $1,850/month
Another win comes in the form of this good-size one-bedroom with a laundry room. All in all, a pretty good showing for a town not exactly renowned for its beaches. So…come on, L.A. Show us what you got.
L.A.: Studio in Venice, $1,600/month
Call us naive, but we were expecting to see something straight out of Sunset Beach. This place looks a little grimy, honestly, although it's hard to argue with that view of the ocean (even if there is a parking lot in the way).
LA..: Studio in Santa Monica, $2,000/month
Another studio—could it be we've found L.A.'s weak spot? Oceanfront living is, apparently, not the cheap option. As with so many of the studios on this list, though, it's clean, modern and has laundry, air-conditioning and a parking space. Which are, y'know, okay things to have, we guess.
L.A.: One-bedroom in Playa del Rey, $1,960/month
Even though we made fun of all the white carpets in L.A. apartments earlier, just look at that. We want to roll around on it and run barefoot across it like young lovers through a field of daisies. It's only 675 square feet, though. Unbelievable as it might seem, we're going to call this round a draw. That's right: We're saying that you can get just as good an apartment near the beach in NYC as you can in L.A. (The quality of the beaches, of course, is a separate argument.)
Neighborhood 5: The next big 'hood
Bushwick has already exploded in popularity, but in terms of name-brand recognition, it's not quite up there among other New York nabes like Williamsburg. It's only a matter of time, though. In L.A., the stirrings of popularity (and climbing rents) can be felt in West Adams, just east of downtown in the still-scary-but-getting-less-scary neighborhood near USC.
New York: One-bedroom in Bushwick, Brooklyn; $1,850/month
You'll scoff at this, Angeleinos, but the fact this place has central air is a huge bonus. Although common in the majority of luxury apartment buildings that have sprung up in the past decade, most New Yorkers still make do with clunky window-box air-conditioners. Go ahead and laugh, we can't hear you over the noise they make.
New York: Two-bedroom in Bushwick, Brooklyn; $1,900/month
It says a lot about New York real estate that even the supposedly "up and coming" neighborhood has very little for less than around the two-grand-per-month mark. Still, this has an elevator and on-site laundry, which is more than you can say for most New York apartments.
New York: Two-bedroom in Bushwick, Brooklyn; $2,000/month
One block from DeKalb on the L, and look at all that exposed brick! And the hardwood floors! That's one thing you'll never beat us on, L.A.: New York apartments have charm. When they're not crumbling around our ears or full of roaches, that is.
L.A.: Two-bedroom in West Adams, $1,700/month
An 800-square-foot of space with a brand-new kitchen, hardwood floors and carpeted bedrooms. But…it does kind of look like maybe someone died in there. In fairness, this is also true of most New York apartments, too.
L.A.: Three-bedroom in West Adams, $1,850/month
"This attractive bungalow-style home includes wood flooring," boasts the listing. Do you know what else it has? Bars on the windows and no photos of the interior. Next!
L.A.: Three-bedroom in West Adams, $1,750/month
And so we come to our final apartment, and as you might expect from L.A., it's a relatively spacious, well-lit but unremarkable apartment, where you can totally imagine a '90s Tarantino character smoking a bong while making pithy pop-cultural references to distract you from the holes in plot logic. We're going to hand a narrow victory to New York on this round.

So there you have it. Not the landslide victory for L.A. that all those brutal years of apartment hunting in NYC probably led you to expect—quite the opposite, in fact. Turns out, New York living is still expensive, stressful, confusing and bizarre, but comparatively speaking, it's all worth it once you finally find a place to call home. This is the greatest city in the world, after all.

Neighborhood 1: The park
In New York's corner, we have Central Park, former no-go area turned No. 1 tourist attraction, with some of the most beautiful green spaces in the whole city. In L.A.'s corner, we have Los Feliz, a Village-y hub nestled at the foot of Griffith Park's canyons, trails and exercise devotees. We'll start by looking at three New York apartments, then see what L.A. has to offer (besides something that's probably covered in avocado).

Has anyone ever used this product before? I went to Vitamin World to exchange a small bottle of liquid creatine for something else, and this product seemed to suit my needs, since I'll be starting a bulking phase in a week. Each serving, which contains 5 tablespoonfulls, has:
290 calories
47g carbohydrates
40g sugar
24g protein
How does this sound? Is that too much sugar? I was thinking of taking this with two cups of skim milk to bump the calories up to 470 calories per serving.
Do you guys think this sounds good?

Zoe is blown away by how good the book is and she is determined to get Natalie's book published. Natalie thinks this is impossible. She is 12 years old and she is sure that no one is going to publish a book written by someone so young. Zoe hatches a crazy plan to get the book published. The plan involves using a pen name, hiring an agent, and other crazy things.

First Lady Michelle Obama visited Nashville Thursday for the second time in the last few months. While Mrs. Obama's first visit was to raise money for her husband's reelection, this time seemed to aim squarely at rallying base supporters.
Mrs. Obama spoke before a jubilant crowd of several thousand, at a convention of the African Methodist Episcopal Church at Opryland. She pushed the audience to get others involved in politics, and chided anyone who passes up a chance to vote, saying "salvation is not a once-a-week kind of deal… and neither is citizenship."
"I'm talking about the tireless, the thankless, relentless work of making change. You know, the phone-calling, letter-writing, door-knocking, meeting-planning kind of work! That is the real work of Democracy."
Mrs. Obama did not speak directly to the Supreme Court's decision to uphold her husband's healthcare law. But as she was making her exit, someone announced the news from the podium, prompting hallelujahs, and a song: "Victory Shall Be Mine."
Bishop Larry Kirkland prompts hallelujahs over the healthcare ruling, before leading into a gospel song:

A year ago, the signs pointed to a busy 2003, but producers were wary. Their concern proved unnecessary, as strong oil and gas prices enhanced investor interest in energy stocks, and spurred a record-smashing performance that will be tough to match in 2004.
This year, price signals indicate that the bullish atmosphere could well continue, although most experts predict that drilling will not quite reach the heights seen in 2003. Nonetheless, early predictions point to what may be the second-best year on record.

Bipolar Retreat
Defining Bipolar:
Bipolar disorder or manic-depressive disorder,
which is also referred to as bipolar affective disorder or manic
depression, is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a category of
mood disorders defined by the presence of one or more episodes of
abnormally elevated energy levels, heightened cognition, and mood with
or without one or more depressive episodes. The elevated moods are
clinically referred to as mania or, if milder, hypomania.
Understanding Bipolar:
The onset of full symptoms generally occurs in
late adolescence or young adulthood. Diagnosis is based on the person's
self-reported experiences, as well as observed behavior by skilled
professionals. Episodes of abnormality are commonly associated with
physiological distress. Bipolar sufferers are at an elevated risk of
suicide, especially during depressive episodes. In some cases, bipolar
is long-lasting, harmful disorder. In others, it has also been
associated with creativity, goal striving, and positive achievements.
There is significant evidence to suggest that many people with creative
talents have also suffered from some form of bipolar disorder.
Genetic factors contribute substantially to the likelihood of
developing bipolar disorder, and environmental factors are also drawn
What the experts say:
"Bipolar disorder is often treated with mood
stabilizer medications, and sometimes, other psychiatric drugs. Drugs
can be one component that helps alleviate the strain of bipolar, but
medication alone without addressing the individual's thinking
patters enflaming bipolar is like driving a car without wheels;
you'll never get to the destination of happiness you
desire," articulates Wayne Parrott.
In his up and coming book, 28 Days to Beat the Blues™, Beating
Bipolar Edition, Wayne reveals approaches that equip bipolar sufferers
with tools for healthy change resulting in a more balanced day to day
routine and long-term mental stability.
Solutions at Fountainhead Retreat:
The most important message for you to
take away is that for the rest of your life you are in a stage of
learning, bipolar or not. The Fountainhead Method is not a quick fix
for bipolar. It is not just another technique in the already saturated
pile of self-help techniques. The Fountainhead Method is a process, a
learning process that requires commitment, study, comprehension,
acceptance and repetition. This commitment is a life commitment that
starts at a health retreat with a track record for helping thousands
through acute stress related illnesses. Bipolar is one of many.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Enter your zip code above to find your hardiness zone, plants available for your area, and your estimated ship date.
To the left, you'll find all the topics covered in this Plant Manual. Select a topic to read its information.
A unique and flavorful berry! This natural cross between blackberries and red raspberries produces long, tasty, dark red berries that are good for fresh eating, juicing, or making pies, jams and jellies. Thornless canes grow horizontally, so supports help keep fruit off the ground. Berries are sweetest when allowed to ripen on the bush. Heat-tolerant. Ripens in June. Self-pollinating.
Plants grown in a greenhouse must be acclimated carefully before planting or placing them outdoors. This is especially true in hot or sunny locations. Many species should never be grown in full sun. Before purchasing a plant, learn about its sun requirements. Knowing the plants requirements can avoid any damage to the plant by incorrectly giving it the wrong conditions.
If your plant has been grown in a greenhouse, here are a few steps we recommend you follow:
These are general guide recommendations. Some plants take longer than others to acclimate.
The best way to succeed is to plan before you plant. Let's discuss location: Do you know where you want to locate your new plant? Avoid many future problems by considering all aspects of the planting spot, such as:
Is a pollinator variety present? Cross-pollination by a different variety, of the same type of plant, is key to the success of many plants. In most cases, its absence is why the plant doesn't bear fruit or produces poorly. Most berry plants are self-pollinating, but for a larger fruit and crop plant more than one variety.
Your plant would love a sunny place with well-drained, fertile soil. But it will be quite satisfied with six to eight hours of sunlight. Good drainage is required to keep your plant "happy." If your soil has high clay content, use our Coco-Fiber Potting Medium or add one-third peat to the soil at planting time. We do not recommend planting in heavy, pure clay soils.
Even if your yard isn't the most ideal location, take heart. Most berry plants are very adaptable and respond well to fertilizers, so they can get along well even where the soil is nutritionally poor. Just steer clear of sites with extremely heavy soils or very poor drainage.
Once you've found out about fruit growing goodness firsthand, you'll want to expand your home orchard. It's important to plan so that the future growth areas will be ready when you are.
Few things are as delicious as homegrown berries, and the success of your harvest begins right with the planting site and method. For maximum growth and yields later on, give your plants the best foundation possible.
Before you plant, check your soil pH. Contact your local County Extension Office for information about soil testing in your area, or purchase one of our digital meters for quick and accurate results. Loganberries grow best with a soil pH between 6.0-6.7. They love rich soil, well-drained loams and brick earth.
Preparing your soil before you plant will greatly improve your plant's performance and promote healthy, vigorous growth. It is a good idea to have your soil tested to determine if it is lacking in any essential minerals and nutrients. This can be done through your County Extension Office or with one of our digital meters.
The goal of soil preparation is to replenish vital minerals and nutrients, as well as break up and loosen any compacted soil.
Soil preparation can be done at any time that the ground is not too wet or frozen. Your trees may be planted even when temperatures are quite cool. If a hard frost is expected, it is advisable to delay planting for a while until temperatures become more moderate. Generally, as long as your soil is workable, it is fine to plant.
Your lawn can provide you with ideal organic materials such as grass clippings and shredded leaves. Not only will the grass and leaves break down to provide soil nutrients, but they will help loosen the soil as well. You can gather these in the fall with spring planting in mind.
Adding organic materials, such as our Coco-Fiber Potting Medium and compost will improve most every soil type. Organic materials bind sandy soil particles so they retain moisture and nutrients better. They also break apart clay and silt particles, so that water can infiltrate and roots can spread.
Fertilize each spring with our Blackberry & Bramble Fertilizer.
Every plant has the future potential for disease and insect damage. Factors such as location and weather will play a part in which issues your plants encounters. If available, disease-resistant varieties are the best option for easy care; and for all types of plants, proper maintenance (such as watering, pruning, spraying, weeding, and cleanup) can help keep most insects and diseases at bay.
Infected areas will have yellowing foliage, slowed growth, large seed production and death of branches. New canes will often wilt.
Whitish-gray powdery mold or felt like patches on leaves and green twigs. Leaves may crinkle and curl upward. Over winters in fallen leaves.
Plants appear stunted and slow growing, leaves may be reduced in size, little or no fruit. If plant is dead, inspect roots for hard, woody tumors. Note: many things can cause stunted plants.
Small, active, slender-winged insects, various colors, usually found on underside of leaves, similar to aphids. Retard growth, leaves become whitened, stippled or mottled. Tips may wither and die. This insect carries virus of certain very harmful plant diseases.
Large (vary from ½ -2" long) fleshy, hairless caterpillars. Adult cutworms are dark, night flying moths with bands or stripes on their forewings and lighter color hind wings. Some feed on the stems, others feed on new tender growth. Cutworms feed at night and can destroy a new plant over night.
Newly hatched worms are white with black heads. Mature worms are light tan or dark brown with dark or orange back and side stripes. The feed on the leaves of plants.
They are the size of a pinhead and vary in color depending on the species. Cluster on stems and under leaves, sucking plant juices. Leaves then curl, thicken, yellow and die. Produce large amounts of a liquid water called "honeydew". Aphid sticky residue becomes growth media for sooty mold.
Pinpoint size, many different colors. Found on undersides of leaves. Severe infestations have some silken webbing. Sap feeding causes bronzing of leaves.
Pale yellow or 'dirty' green worms. Leaves are rolled and webbed together where insects feed. Eventually becomes 'skeletonized'.
Small red-bordered spots appear on new leaves, canes and occasionally on fruit. These spots will grow and eventually the infected piece will fall out, leaving a hole in the leaf.
Leaves are dwarfed and undersides covered with large powdery masses of orange colored spores. Young shoots appear spindly and elongated.
Pruning is an important part of proper edible plant care, but many people find the task overwhelming. It doesn't have to be! Keep these things in mind:
Spraying is important to the survival of your plants. To handle potential diseases and pests, reference the guidelines below to know what you should spray, and when you should use it.
Before you begin, read and follow all instructions on labels.
When watering loganberries, be sure to water at the base of the plant to avoid fungal diseases. Once the fruit begins to swell, keep the plant well watered.
Are you ready to enjoy delicious homegrown fruit? Harvest is the time to enjoy the results of your hard work. Keep a few things in consideration as you reap the fruits of your labor: the best time to pick the fruit from your tree, and how to store the fruit.
Loganberries will produce fruit the first season after planting. There will be crops of firm, deep red berries from August to September. Berries do not pull free from their core when picked, so you can't use this to gauge the ripeness of the fruit.
The annual average yield per plant is about 10 pounds.
They will keep for a few days in the refrigerator or freeze for later use.
Our experts will help you find the answer!
Trees that are shipped without soil to ensure good contact with soil in your yard. When shipped, they are about 3-4' tall with 3/8" or larger trunk diameter. When they mature, they will be one of three sizes*:
Matures to be about 8-10' tall and wide. Provides an abundance of full-size fruit.
Matures to be about 12-15' tall and wide. Gives maximum fruit yield per square foot.
Matures to be about 15-25' tall and 20' wide. A multi-purpose fruit and shade tree.
Top-grade, bare-root trees that give you a head start on growing. When shipped, they are about 4-5' tall with 5/8" or larger trunk diameter.
Trees in bottomless pots that allow some roots to be air pruned, so that a dense mass of productive, feeder roots can grow within the pot to make transplanting easier. Mature sizes vary. When shipped, they are about 1-2' tall.
Top-grade, potted trees chosen to give you a head start on growing. When shipped to you, they are about 3-4' tall.
*Tree sizes may vary by variety. See our Growing Guide for details.

HOUSTON, October 18 — Conservatives will be forever indebted to President Obama for helping to elect the most fearless, articulate, intelligent, and outspoken advocate for true constitutional principles to office in Washington since President Ronald Reagan.
SEE RELATED: GOP's betrayal in the budget deal and why Ted Cruz won
In early 2012, Obama's Department of Justice sued the state of Texas because of the alleged discrimination of the state's newly enacted voter I.D. law and the allegedly discriminatory re-districting maps that were drawn and passed by the Texas state legislature. These decisions resulted in pushing back the presidential and senate primary elections from March 6 all the way to May 29.
This accomplished Obama's goal of diminishing Texas' conservative influence on the Republican presidential nominee in 2012. By March 6 — Super Tuesday — however, the Republican nominee was already essentially set in stone, so Obama did not gain anything from these lawsuits. The Tea Party sure did, though.
Texas generally holds its primary election for senate and presidential nominations very early in the primary season, and because it is such a highly populated state, it can hold significant influence over the eventual Republican presidential nominee. Texas is a relatively conservative state, and the Obama administration dearly wanted to diminish this conservative influence, as they correctly surmised that the moderate Republican and GOP establishment pick, Mitt Romney, would be the weakest candidate in a general election.
In 2012 the establishment Republicans' chosen successor for senator from Texas was the moderate sitting lieutenant governor, David Dewhurst. If Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder had not sued Texas and pushed back its primary for two and a half months, the only senator brave enough to take on Obama's fundamental transformation of this country, Ted Cruz, would never have been in the United States Senate.
SEE RELATED: 2 reasons the Washington establishment fears Ted Cruz
In Texas, in order to avoid a runoff for the presidential and senate nominations, a candidate must receive more than 50 percent of the vote. If no candidate receives this amount, then the top two candidates go to a run-off to determine the nominee.
David Dewhurst, the GOP establishment's pick for senator, was presumed to have won the nomination before the election even began. He was bolstered by high name recognition, his personal fortune to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, and support from Karl Rove, the Bush family and Rick Perry. It took Cruz a very long time to develop the support needed to overcome Dewhurst's money and establishment advantages. However many people still believed Dewhurst could avoid the runoff and win the nomination outright.
In February and March, 2012, though, Ted Cruz was surging in the polls. By late May when the primary came around, it was much less apparent that Dewhurst would be able to maintain enough of a lead to win the nomination outright and avoid a runoff.
According to Politico, the May 29 primary resulted in a Dewhurst victory, as expected, but Dewhurst only won 45 percent of the vote to Cruz's 32 percent. If the vote had occurred two and a half months earlier, as originally scheduled, Dewhurst would have bested the 50 percent threshold and became the Republican nominee.
In the runoff, Cruz won with 57 percent of the vote. It was a stunning rebuke to the establishment, a great victory for the grassroots, and a future migraine headache for the Obama administration.
The contrast between what Obama was able to achieve during his first term and his complete lack of achievement in his second term is thought provoking.
During his first term, Obama achieved almost all of his policy goals: The stimulus bill passed, he shoved Obamacare through, repealed "dont ask, dont tell," went to war in Libya, raised tax rates, and maintained yearly deficits in the range of 1.1- 1.6 trillion dollars. Even after the Republicans gained control of the House of Representatives in 2010, the House still authorized spending trillions of dollars more than we take in, raised tax rates for the first time in 40 years, and repeatedly raised the debt ceiling.
Obama's second term has been a different story: Every gun control measure which seemed destined to pass did not; the conservatives in Congress stood up and won the argument against Obama's new war in Syria; amnesty has been delayed and possibly forgotten; and now Obamacare will be on the on the table in every negotiation from here on out. Cruz was on the front lines of every one of those fights, often the only member of Congress standing with and fighting for, the American people.
So, the Tea Party and constitutionalists around the world have President Obama to thank for the resurgence of the Tea Party, the first principled opposition to his radical left-wing agenda, and a man who will most likely be a very influential power player in the conservative movement for decades to come.

Transman has few heroes, but ever since his humiliation at the hands of his sister Twyla Faye and her band of cheerleaders made him see the error of his Elvis infatuation, Transman has had a soft spot for Waylon Jennings. Unlike Elvis, Waylon was his own man through-and-through. Even when people tried to control his career for him, Waylon still found ways to do his own thing and make music on his own terms.
It probably seems unlikely that a little Transman would pick a "horseless cowboy singer" for a role model, but Transman ditched his Elvis-style jumpsuit (well, all right, it was just a shiny track suit) for jeans and a leather vest when he was about 8 years old. Little Transman just thought Waylon looked and sounded cool. Big Transman respects Waylon's artistic integrity and support of other artists.
Transman's admiration is also rooted in Waylon's attitude. The publicity photo for the box set, Nashville Rebel, says, "He didn't become a legend by following the rules." That a transkid had to break some societal rules along the way to adulthood seems like a no-brainer. Yes, different situations, but sometimes when life got particularly trying, Transman would visualize Waylon Jennings giving the finger to the system for inspiration. Some people meditate and conjure up images of sandy beaches or white rooms; Transman happens to visualize a badass guitar slinger. You can read more about why Transman digs Waylon here.
Jennings was born in Littlefield, Texas June 15, 1937. As a teenager, he was a disc jockey and started playing bass in Buddy Holly's band after meeting him at the radio station. While touring with Holly, Jennings gave up his seat on the plane to the Big Bopper; the plane crashed killing Holly, the Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens. In his autobiography, Jennings talks about how deeply Holly's death affected him; for many years he struggled with survivor's guilt.
In 1975, he was named male vocalist of the year by the Country Music Association, but it was the 1976 album, Wanted: The Outlaws! that propelled him to stardom. The album, recorded with Tompall Glaser, Willie Nelson, and Jessi Colter, was the first platinum album recorded in Nashville. The watershed album pushed the musicians, especially Willie and Waylon, into the spotlight and found them fans far outside the country market.
Waylon Jennings died Feb. 13, 2002, from diabetes complications. The Waylon Fund supports diabetes research. In honor of what would have been his 75th birthday, there are several "Birthday Bash" concerts around the country this year that raise funds for the cause.
Now, for the music:
"I've Always Been Crazy" is one of his signature tunes; there is good footage here of steel guitar player Ralph Mooney, who helped define Waylon's live sound.
Waylon got the idea for "Good Hearted Woman" from a newspaper story about Ike and Tina Turner. He and Willie Nelson wrote the song together during a poker game. Willie jokes that he gave Waylon one line and took half the song.
Waylon always put together a great band. Here they are on the Cowboy Jack Clement Show doing their version of Steve Young's "Lonesome, On'ry and Mean":
Waylon and Johnny Cash had a long friendship. They were roommates in the 60s and Cash often had Waylon as a guest on his variety show and television specials; in the 1990s, they formed The Highwaymen with Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson.
Waylon always had a good ear for original songwriting. Here, he's doing Billy Joe Shaver's "Slow Rollin' Low."

Almost every department now has a Ricoh copier available for use. All employees are encouraged to use these instead of using personal printers in order to ...
Buying a used Ricoh copier for your business can be a smart budget-friendly decision. You may be hesitant at first, but copiers are built to last. Ricoh copiers are widely known throughout the business world as a speedy, dependable piece of equipment. The copiers are easy to use and will ensure the constant workflow within the office.
Used or refurbished top of the line copiers can provide you with an excellent substitute for the expensive new options that would normally be available to you. "With the rising costs of office equipment, many businesses are turning to used copiers as a way to save on their operating budgets. These refurbished copiers can be dependable components of your office equipment," CopiersInk.com stated.
When buying a used or refurbished copier, you should decide if a black and white copier will do, or if you need color. Finally, you need to do your research on the company you are purchasing from. If you find a dependable supplier, then you can be sure the equipment will provide you all the same features a new product would.
Color Copier
Many new and refurbishing companies sell more black and white copiers than color. Yet, you can still find color copiers for your office with no problem. These will be more expensive, the same as if you were to buy it new. The benefit to buying a color copier is that you can also then print in color, which can be critical for handouts or flyers. The downside is that a Ricoh color copier will output 90 pages per minute as opposed to 133 with a black and white copier.
Copiersrefurbished.com will provide you with the top of the line refurbished Ricoh copiers. They guarantee the product has not been used up to more than 5% of their full working life. They also guarantee 75% off the national MSRP price, giving you the ultimate refurbished deal. Their selection of color copiers will leave you wanting one for your home too. You will also find a large selection of black and white copiers if that is better suited to your needs.
The two utmost important pieces of purchasing a used or refurbished copier:
· Business legitimacy.
· Warranty.
While purchasing a used Ricoh copier will save you thousands of dollars, purchasing from the wrong company will end up costing you. To be sure of the business qualifications check with the Better Business Bureau. Here you can see notes and rating. It is suggested to choose a company that has an A+.
Once you have decided that you can trust the company, check the details of their warranty program. Often times you'll find tiered warranty options. Printscansolutions.com detailed their tips for getting a warranty on used office equipment. "Some companies offer a 60- or 90-day warranty. I suggest the longer term. If a copier repair company is willing to provide a 90-day warranty, it is a sign that they will stand behind the equipment." They also suggest doing a thorough inspection of the copier. Check for cleanliness and inquire about any work done or changes made. It is recommended to inspect the current parts, and inquire if they are from the original equipment manufacturer. This should always be the case, whether they were replaced or original.
Better Business Choice
Buying a used or refurbished Ricoh copier is the best idea for your business. Ricoh copiers are known for their ability to help an office run quickly and efficiently. For new copiers you'll pay thousands more, as opposed to investing much less in a piece of equipment that is still up to industry standards.
Buying a used or refurbished Ricoh copier can give you a top of the line piece of equipment without spending the money. Ricoh copiers are known to be the best for businesses. Their user-friendly build and quick copying and printing will allow for constant productivity. New Ricoh copiers cost thousands more than purchasing used. Though you may be hesitant, many businesses have made the choice to buy used as a way to save money while still getting a solid product.
When purchasing used, you'll simply need to remember a few things. Many companies are selling used and refurbished products. You want to be sure that the one you go with is selling a good piece of equipment. Check with the Better Business Bureau for their rating and customer notes. It is suggested to only choose those businesses that are ranked with an A+ to avoid any problems. Most importantly, you need to choose a company that provides a warranty; the longer the better. These machines are supposed to be at industry level standards, and purchasing a warranty will protect you in the case that something does go wrong.

The ProBook S comes with a "great software package, just like you'd expect from HP"? Give me a break, it's freaking crapware!
I don't want Evernote, WildTangent fakery (a bunch of links to games in your Startmenu, all leading to an onlinestore), trial version of Antivirus, a worthless wireless manager… the list goes on!
All I want is a plain vanilla installation of Windows7. Oh great, I can't have that even if I own a Windows7-DVD because drivers are broken and won't work if you download all 200MB+ of them and install them yourself.
We all get that you're being paid by the people who made that software to preload it and everybody is annoyed by it. So don't try and present it like it's a good thing that it with comes with a bunch of annoying nonsense.
Apart from that, great device.

One Shot
A Jack Reacher Novel
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
Excellent airplane book or beach read. Very satisfying.
No, Killing Floor is the first one.
motion picture featuring Tom cruise. reviews have been good.
fun read. I can see why Tom Cruise (and many other actors) would want to portray this character.
I wondered how the author would solve this riddle outlined right at the start of the book: 6 innocent by-standers shot by a sniper, who when caught with slam dunk evidence against him, maintains his innocence and claims that the police have the wrong guy. And he wants Jack Reacher to investigate this case...a puzzling request since Reacher promised to kill him should he kill others again using his sniper training. One needs the author to guide one through this maze...not a plot easily solved with the few clues that authors usually throw to their readers. Excellent, spell binding read.
Lots of twists and turns in this one.
With the usual gut-wrenching violence. No one is safe.-----I believe the first Jack Reacher book was "Killing Floor" in 1997.
is this the first one?
QuotesAdd a Quote
""When will he come?" the Zec asked. "I don't know," Rosemary said. "Four o'clock in the morning," Linsky said. "He's an American. They're trained that four o'clock in the morning is the best time for a surprise attack." ... "I went to college," Reacher said. "West Point is technically a college." Yanni said, "The existing social order is a swindle and its cherished beliefs mostly delusions." "It is not possible for any thinking person to live in such a society as our own without wanting to change it," Reacher said.
The nature of randomness, Reacher thought. Random slayings always involved people described as lovely afterward. Nobody ever said "She was a rat-faced fink and I'm glad she's dead. Whoever it was did us all a favor." That never happened.

With all of our good friends in the United States celebrating Thanksgiving this week, we at Cuzoogle wanted to share our thanks with all of the sports blogs we read and get linked to every day. Without all of your help we know we would not be where we are today. So check out this feast of sports blogs and don't be afraid to go back for seconds and thirds.
The Main Course
Turkey - The real meat of the whole dinner. Thanksgiving is turkey and these sports blogs are staples.
Stuffing - No Thanksgiving is complete without some kick ass stuffing. These sites kick ass as well.
Potatoes - Whether you like 'em sweet or mashed or covered in gravy, you have to have tators to go with all that meat. No starch issues here.
Cranberry Sauce - A simple touch that adds so much to the meal. Who cares if it is from a can, it tastes damn good. Don't overlook these sports blogs that always make us laugh.
Bread and butter - Now bread and butter seems so simple but how can you have a feast without some freshly baked bread? Exactly! That is what you can't wander around the blogosphere without adding these sites to your meal.
Yams - Sorry had to do it. Seemed to good to pass up.
on 205th (the king of yams you will agree)
Dessert - If you have room for more then it is time for the pumpkin pie, the apple pie and whatever your guilty pleasure is. These blogs have that down cold and always offer up something for everyone.
Ready to eat?
So who is going to sit at the head of the table and do the carving?
Well that has to be our friend Jimmy "The Turkey" Traina of Extra Mustard fame. We should all be thankful to him and hope he does not miss any time from work due to over eating.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

Haha, this is great. Love being the bread and butter! We should all thank you as well Mr. Cuzzy for all these great pieces you do on a daily basis.
Ignored again! What, there is no beer or liquor served at this dinner? Can I volunteer to be one of those? Maybe the warm Natty Light your drunk uncle shows up with as his contribution to the festivities.
Tailgating Daves last blog post..Custom Tailgating Gear From H2O FX
TG Dave, very sorry. I was thinking of booze or even a leftover section but ran out of gas. You are certainly not forgotten and if there is a lot of turkey left over I know you will be the one to tell us how to use it on Sunday.
What's weird is that I usually eat at least a can of that jelly cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving each year.
Mikes last blog post..What's The Best Name in Roller Derby?
I'm honored to make the list, and be in the same category with those other great blogs!
Happy Thanksgiving to each and all!
The Zoners last blog post..GIVING THANKS: CHICAGO STYLE
Potatoes it is! Gladly.
Scott @ WFNYs last blog post..What We're Thankful For…
I usually to eat one thing at a time, and I always eat my potatoes first, because they taste best hot. Cold Taters are nasty.
The only thing that trumps me eating the taters first is if the bread is fresh from the oven. Homemade bread with butter on it! That is awesome. I can't wait!
Have a great Day Cuz! I am glad I made the list.
P.S. I know Cannucks do not share the same Thanksgiving as we do, but is tomorrow known as black Friday in Canada? Is that yalls kickoff to the holiday shopping as well?
ethanator1088s last blog post..NFL Week 13 Picks, Predictions
yes it black friday for us as well.
happy turkey day all.
Hey Michael, thanks a lot for the mention, it's truly validating. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Neils last blog post..Happy Thanksgiving…
You really should change hosting companies. Your blog seems to be down about half the time I go there.
