SALT LAKE CITY, July 23, 2012 — Work has nothing to do with it, according to the president.
"I'm always struck by people who think … it must be because I worked harder than everybody else," he recently said of successful business owners. "Let me tell you something: There are a whole bunch of hard working people out there."
There are indeed. Barack Obama just isn't one of them.
The president, in fact, has routinely shunned work required of a chief executive since he was inaugurated. Oddly for a career legislator, the messy work of crafting policy and working toward compromise has seemed to put off the president.
Just in the last six weeks, President Obama has decided to skirt legislative toil by using executive maneuvers to bypass congressional prerogative.
"When Congress won't act, I will," the president brazenly declared last year.
And the president has kept his word. First on immigration, Obama has unilaterally decided which parts of federal statute his administration will enforce, dispensing with the unpleasantness of working with legislators who might have differing views and represent constituencies with differing interests.
Then, earlier this month, the Obama Administration announced that it would effectively rewrite a major component of one of the heralded pieces of bipartisan legislation in the past 30 years. The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, known as Welfare Reform, might be the centerpiece of Bill Clinton's legislative portfolio.
It did not pass easily. Clinton vetoed two attempts to get it through. Compromise, cajoling, schmoozing, calling in favors and promising others, all led to the eventual passage of the bill, championed by political foes Clinton and then-Speaker Newt Gingrich. It is still widely supported by the public.
Getting through such legislation is tough. Obama has proven wholly inadequate to the task, perhaps because it interferes with golfing.
Ironically, he threatens to take unilateral, and arguably unconstitutional, action only in the absence of congressional action, but he has all but assured that the coequal legislative branch won't act on major initiatives by rebuffing and insulting congressional Republicans at every opportunity. On top of that, he refuses to engage his own party's leader in the Senate, who is blocking the president's own initiatives.
Less than two weeks ago, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell moved to vote on President Obama's proposal to extend the Bush tax cuts on the lower rates while letting them expire on high income earners.
Majority Leader Harry Reid objected. On Monday, July 10, President Obama indicated that he would sign such a temporary extension of only some of the rates. Sen. Reid was forced to protect many in his caucus from the embarrassment of voting against the president's proposal.
The same thing happened to his much ballyhooed jobs bill, which the president promoted by commanding congress to "Pass the bill!"
Republicans in congress agreed to vote, but Senate democrats blocked it. If Obama's strength is in compromise, if his time in the Senate did anything for him, wouldn't he have been able to convince his own party to take his measures up for a vote?
But Obama's proposals are jokes in Washington. His past two budgets submitted to Congress have received a grand total of zero votes. The few legislative accomplishments he has are almost completely devoid of his fingerprints, save those left during the signing ceremonies.
It could be said that he was a pioneer of outsourcing major legislation to his allies in Congress during his first two years.
If he disdains the hard work of crafting and implementing bipartisan policy, what then does he believe the job requires?
Telling stories.
"The nature of this office is also to tell a story to the American people that gives them a sense of unity and purpose and optimism," he told CBS's Charlie Rose.
This is a man whose résumé itself is the work of a storyteller. His qualifications for public service are two bestsellers, key points of which we now know he made up.
He made a career of voting present and moving to the next higher office just before his constituencies figured out he wasn't really working at all.
Even the mundane task of meeting with his Council on Jobs and Competitiveness has been too much for the president, who has spent more time at fancy dinners and fundraising events than meeting with advisors about how to fix the economy.
President Obama's off-the-cuff comments that hard work doesn't build business quite like government roads do is revealing. They show that he is hopelessly illiterate when it comes to the free market, and that he just doesn't like to do the work of a chief executive.

I need help with identifying correct TURNOVER AND COST OF SALES for the following situation.
A UK incorporated limited company is trading US shares and CFDs for Index futures. They are day trading and a typical day consists of the following transactions.
{Day trading is a short term trading: shares are bought and sold within a few minutes or within a few days, usually not held for more than a week}
TOTAL Cash capital at the start of the day = US$25,000
Buying and shortselling stocks listed on US Exchanges
BUY 400 APPL@ $100/share [market value = US$40,000] [ margin required = 33%=US$13,333]
SELL 400 APPL@ $101/share [ market value = US$40,400]
Profit = +US$400
ShortSell 300 RIMM@ $80/share [ market value =US$24,000][ margin required = 33% = US$8,000]
Buy back 300 RIMM@ $81/share [market value = US$24,300]
Loss = -US$300
As it is margin trading, they are able to hold stock portforlio its value is higher than their CASH balance held with broker account.
Profit for the day = 400-300 = US$100 [ exclusing commissions and transaction costs]
My question is
What is the TURN OVER AND COST OF SALE FOR the Company for that day?
Turnover = 400 (trading profits)
COS =(300) (trading losses)
GrossP&L = 100
(in this method, revenue and costs are not matched, they come from different shares, true cost of making $400 profits does not come from $300 loss)
Turnover = 64,400 (APPL sales 40,400+ RIMM sales 24,00)
COS = 64,300 (APPL purchase 40,000 + RIMM purchase 24,300)
GrossP&L = 100
(in this method, Turnover and COS looks overstated, as the capital is only $25,000)
(if this method is to be used, turnover could go up to tens of millions after a few hundred transactions)
Please help me find the right values.
many thanks,
Dear Leo,
I think the first method is not correct.
Assume that the day trader makes loss in both the cases (instead of $400 profit, he makes a loss of $400). Does that mean his turnover is zero?
I think the turnover has to be stated at gross level and not at the trading profit / loss level.
We can also draw parallel with a general trader who buys & sells goods. Such a trader relies on credit facilities such as bank finances, suppliers credit, venture capital etc. (after establishing business himself for some period). At that time, eventhough his capital is say $100,000, he achieves a turnover of say $1 million through such credit facilities. In such a case, we do not state his turnover equivalent to gross profits made by him on various commodities. However, the turnover is the actual sales value of all the commodities sold by him. Similarly, in your example, the turnover should be $64,400 and not $400.

Posted on June 28, 2013
This week, the New Jersey Legislature took final action on the remaining "centerpiece" gun bill, Senate President Stephen Sweeney's Senate Bill 2723 / Assembly Bill 4182. This legislation passed the Assembly on a 43-34 vote on Monday and the Senate on a partisan vote of 22-16 on Thursday. This bill now moves to Governor Christie's (R) desk to await consideration. Contact Governor Christie to request his veto of S 2723 AND the .50 caliber ban bill Assembly Bill 3659 / Senate Bill 2178, which also received final approval this past week.
S 2723/A 4182 represents a serious attack on the constitutional rights of lawful New Jersey gun owners. If signed by Governor Christie, the legislation will require proof of firearms training simply to buy a firearm. The bill also attaches permit information to drivers' licenses or another form of ID, and it goes even further by registering ammunition purchases.
Assembly Bill 3659 / Senate Bill 2178, sponsored by Assemblyman Peter Barnes (D-18), seeks to ban the possession of certain firearms .50 caliber or greater. Despite the fact that there are no known reports of these firearms being used in the commission of a crime, anti-gun legislators ignored the hard evidence in order to advance their misguided agenda.
Action this week by the Legislature will likely conclude business as lawmakers approach summer recess. The Governor is expected to act on the bills over the summer, and it is important that NRA members immediately contact the Governor's Office and respectfully ask him to oppose these dangerous anti-Second Amendment bills. (When using the email tool at the link provided above, please select "law and public safety" from the drop-down list of topics.) Remind Governor Christie that New Jersey already has some of the most extreme gun control laws in the country. Rather than target lawful gun owners, politicians should focus on addressing New Jersey's serious crime problem. Clearly, more gun control laws are not the answer.
Thank you to all the NRA members who took an active role in standing up for the Second Amendment and contacting their legislators this session. This is your one last opportunity to halt this historic assault on our constitutional rights in New Jersey. It is vital that Gov. Christie hear from New Jersey gun owners now.

Only weeks after some anti-gun state Senators were caught on a live microphone discussing the need for "confiscation" of firearms after a Senate Budget Committee hearing, their Assembly colleagues fumbled through an embarrassing hearing this week on Senate Bill 2723/Assembly Bill 4182. The New Jersey Assembly Law & Public Safety Committee failed to garner enough votes to pass the centerpiece gun control bill offered by Senate President Steve Sweeney (D-3). FULL STORY
Yesterday, the New Jersey Assembly took another step toward finalizing extreme gun control measures which have been hotly contested all year. Despite loud protest from lawful gun owners across the Garden State over the last several months, state lawmakers continued on their relentless course toward even more gun control. FULL STORY
Lawmakers in Trenton are close to completing final action on the "centerpiece" gun control bill next week despite the flagrant and embarrassing disregard for legislative process. FULL STORY

Google Adds Phone Calls to Linux Gmail Use
Five days after the announcement of Voice and Video Chat service in Gmail for Debian-based Linux distributions, Google unveiled a Gmail phone call service for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Rather than having both parties tied to their computers and logged into their Gmail accounts, one user can now call anyone in the US and Canada with telephone service. Google states that rates will remain free for the rest of the year and very low for international calls.
Google continues by saying that dialing from Gmail is just like using your phone. Just click "Call phone" in your chat list and dial the number on the number pad that appears. One could even use a contact name if there is a phone number associated with it. The browser plug-in has been tested extensively internally by Google and found to be quite useful. While Google Voice isn't required, it will provide certain benefits such as Caller ID and the ability to receive phone calls from inside Gmail.
Interested Debian derivative users can find and install the plug-in from www.google.com.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

I'm sold!
Comments: I have worked as a construction superintendent from Alaska to New Zealand over the past 30 years. Since my work is mostly outside I have searched for warm serviceable coats, never really finding anything that I could endorse. About 3 years ago my son gave me a Filson shelter cloth Packer coat. Since then I have worn it in some pretty miserable weather; winter along the Columbia river 50 miles inland from the Pacific coast, The high plains of eastern New Mexico and now starting the winter season near Yakima, Washington. I could not ask for a better work coat it stands up to wind and rain and I can't wear it without having someone ask "where did you get that coat, I'd sure like to have one". Needless to say, I'm sold! Thanks you,
Mike H Cochran

By: Jamie Penick, MMATorch Editor-in-Chief
Hector Lombard's UFC debut is being treated as a very big deal by the organization, as Heavy.com reports that his bout with Brian Stann will headline the UFC on Fox 4 card in Los Angeles on August 4.
The bout was revealed earlier this week for the event, though it's place on the card wasn't yet known. As the headliner, Lombard's name goes from an MTV2 marquee in Bellator to what will be again one of the most heavily-viewed events in MMA.
Lombard's 25-fight unbeaten streak will be tested fiercely by Stann, who bested another highly regarded fighter coming into the UFC last summer in Jorge Santiago. Coming off his third TKO win in four fights, Stann will attempt to stop the Lombard train before it gets moving in the Octagon, and he'll do it in his highest profile slot to date.
Penick's Analysis: That's a huge leap in exposure for Lombard, and he'll get a chance to prove himself to a massive portion of the UFC's audience in his debut. For Stann, this is a big opportunity for him to move back up the ladder in the division, while getting the biggest spot on a card he's yet received in the UFC. It's a great fight, and will be a great main event as well.

In San Francisco, some voters are voting early at City Hall's Department of Elections. The department will also be open the next two weekends to facilitate early voting. One voter KTSF spoke to says she is voting for the candidate whom she thinks will give the community a chance to succeed. Another man says he has women's issues, the economy and world peace on his mind when he votes.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Department of Elections has registered 489,000 voters by last Thursday, a historic high. The department anticipates 80% voter turnout in this election.
Those who have yet to register have up to midnight to do so and should go to their respective county's elections department website . They will provide the link to register at the California Secretary of State's website to register.

Moses Znaimer, pioneering media entrepreneur, broadcast radio and TV operator and founder of Zoomer Media, is taking on another media platform - ebooks.
The Zoomer Philosophy is the title for a new series of ebooks from Znaimer and Jay Teitel. Available online now in Volume 1, the on-going series will eventually be offered as entire volumes or individual chapters. Volume 3 is already planned for release next March.
Inspired by Hugh Hefner's The Playboy Philosophy, Znaimer says he originally set out to write 10 chapters on what he considers to be today's last taboo – age and aging.
"The best way to keep going is to keep going," writes Moses who shares the secrets and the science to living better, longer, healthier, happier, richer, and yes, sexier too!
Znaimer's never-ending eBook concept is targeted to the 45plus demographic, currently a dominant 15.1 million in Canada alone. The 45plus are the primary users of eReaders. According to PMB Highlights (Fall2012), 1.8 million Canadians 45plus currently own a tablet or eReader and account for 40 percent of all tablet/eReader owners in Canada.
"In a market flooded with eBooks, this series stands out because it is a digital media experience tailored for the 45plus crowd both in terms of subject matter and design. It is highly readable, both visually and topically," said McLean Greaves, VP Digital, ZoomerMedia Limited.
Volume 1 will be available as a free download during an introductory holiday offering; after January 1st, online ebook sales begin with staggered pricing levels.

jennandjt:Yikes....4 more!! Due to my age and anxiety level after 2 prior losses I'll be quite happy with this one, although my DH would love to have 2.....I guess we shall see how it all plays out. If I didn't have to worry about age I would want two!!
I sort of know what you mean about age. I'm currently 32 and will be 33 when I have #2. Tho that's not "old" in baby-making years, I will be having babies at ages older than I ever thought. We're planning them close together...about a year to year and a half apart.
Honestly, I wanted 4, until I had DD (super colicky, didn't sleep more then 30 minutes at a time for the first 3 months, still waking every 2 hours at 9 months, first 3-4 months cried ALL the time unless she was sleeping/nursing...) I really don't know if I can do that 3 more times!
DH has always wanted 2. I think we'll see how it goes w/ 2 and then possibly have a 3rd. I'm leaning more towards 3.. I think I'll feel like 2 isn't enough, won't feel "complete" with a family of just 2 kids, if that makes any sense, because I've always dreamt of having a large-ish family..
DMBMamma:I want 3, he wants 2. But if we have 2 girls, I am sure he will try for a boy. On his dads side of the family, he is the only boy among 7 female cousins. He has that whole "need to continue the family name" thing on his shoulders.
hahaha...that's pretty funny. "no pressure son but uh, we need you to have at least one son to carry on the family name..." lol
My BF's mom had 2 boys and her other son has 2 boys. She's THRILLED over my daughter and hoping we have some girls! It's alot of fun raising a girl baby cuz everything is so sweet and cute but I'd love to have a couple boys. Maybe we can manage 2 boys and 2 girls. lol If only you could choose....truth is tho, I'll just be happy if they are healthy regardless of their gender.


text: I loved the film. Since when has it not amused an Englishman to watch the Chinese kill each other over something as trivial as tempered steel? My favourite part is where he dies and she's in emotional agony, it's like torture - and as a serious fetish addict, nothing turns me on as much as pain. Hell, me and Max finished off a whole box of condoms thanks to this film. Full stars for arousal, hardcore fetishisms and the evident oriental feeling which made me hard as a prawn cracker!

It provides comprehensive knowledge in psychological and educational foundations and extensive training in assessment, therapy, and consultation practices. This program leads to Department of Public Instruction licensure as a School Psychologist.
The curriculum is designed to provide advanced knowledge and skills in content areas necessary to meet the training requirements for School Psychology as defined by the National Association of School Psychologists, the American Psychological Association, and the State of Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction certification standards for School Psychologists. Students will learn, among other skills, to: complete non-biased data-based assessment of school-aged children and integrate such assessment into treatment procedures; function as consultants to teachers, parents and other personnel in school settings - working as child advocates in school, home and community; and conduct applied research that will benefit the children and families that they serve, and appreciate how such efforts fit into a context of continuing professional development.

This activity provides information and knowledge regarding climate (variability and change) and the scientific tools used to study its characteristics and predict its evolution. The information produced are mainly directed at institutions, decision makers, public and private economic entities in order to support their efforts to reduce the impacts of climate variability and its changes on society.
- Facilitate and support a systematic interaction between the scientific community, market actors and decision makers aimed at establishing a continuous and mutual exchange of knowledge and information.
- Produce and transfer to a wide spectrum of users and stakeholders, simple, understandable and relevant information designed to facilitate decision making in planning the management and utilization of environmental resources nd to reduce climate-related risks.
- Produce information about the climate of the recent past, present and future, both at the global, regional and local levels, including long-term trends, variability and extremes
- Improve understanding of climate data and information resulting from scientific research by end users, with particular reference to the uncertainties associated with climate predictions and climate change projections.
- Improve understanding of users' needs and provide climate information that can be easily integrated into existing decision making processes.
The group's main activities consist in the production of information about climate, its variability and change at both global, regional and local level, adequately processed to make them easily understandable and usable for a wide range of utilizations, users and stakeholders. In particular, provided information regards the climate (its variability with particular reference to extreme events) of the recent past (20th century), the present and the future, considering time scales ranging from seasonal and multi-annual, the next 10-to-30 years, until the end of the 21st century and beyond. In addition, data obtained from observations and models, and specifically tailored on users' needs are distributed accompanied by analyses and interpretation tools. Workshops and seminars for experts and scientists, policy makers and administrators, are organized with the aim of improving the mutual exchange of information on needs and potentialities. The group produces and provides documentation (web pages, lectures, reports, educational materials) for the diffusion of state-of-the-art knowledge on climate-related issues and on the most advanced scientific achievemnts in this area. Finally, we perform detailed studies on climate variability and its impacts on specific issues raised and requested by users and stakeholders.

Jeremy's mom has been active on twitter
Quote from: ugot2bekidinmeny on July 15, 2013, 09:41:58 PMJeremy's mom has been active on twitter I suppose this could be taken a couple of different ways and not knowing the woman I can only guess which way she means it. In my social circle, a statement like this is code for "Wait until he gets home. I'm going to sit him down and give him a piece of my mind for behaving like that and embarrassing the whole family on a national forum." Although I'm leaning more toward it meaning "How dare anyone say nasty things about my child. He's really a good guy and only playing a role on a tv show. It's a game and you people are just awful." You can only do so much to instill good values, self respect, respect for others and overall decency in your kids and at a certain point you have to hope that what you taught them sticks. However, there's something about this kid's behavior that makes me think there wasn't a lot of effort put into instilling those values.

New here
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Theresa and I will be widowed 5 years in January. Just signed up for CM yesterday-I guess just testing the waters of the whole online meeting thing. I am just looking for other young widows and widowers close to my age. I was 39 when I was widowed and have school age kids at home. Most grief groups are not for the younger widow/widower so there is not much support. Most of my friends are married and I feel like I have been thrown back out into the single world-except with two kids to take care of. Not much family left-lost both parents as well at a pretty young age. Just seeing if anyone is in the same situation or a similar situation. Thanks for reading.

Is thankfulness, or gratitude, a special virtue?
Aquinas writes that we are indebted to others and justice requires that we repay them appropriately. He provides a four-tiered ranking of those whom we owe: God, parents, persons in positions of dignity, and benefactors. We owe most to God, from whom all good things flow. To each descending category we appropriately owe less. This reminds us that we should be not only thankful to our gift-givers this season, but also to God and others whom we always owe thanks. Once we understand how to give thanks to those other categories, we can finally understand the gratitude which we owe our benefactors, or gift-givers.
Christmas can be a reminder that we should be giving thanks every day of our lives. We can appropriately thank God for his infinite gifts through religious worship and prayer. Secondly, we can thank our parents for our existence and upbringing through practicing piety, says Aquinas. Thirdly, persons in positions of dignity (such as governors or professors) also deserve to be given thanks for their service in our character development. Aquinas only deals with giving proper thanks to gift-givers after God, parents, and persons of dignity. To answer the original question, Aquinas says that thankfulness or gratitude is a special virtue because it is a response specifically suited for our gift-givers.
Should we give thanks to everyone that gives us gifts?
"In all things give thanks" (1 Thessalonians 5:18)
Yes. Aquinas reasons that the gift-giver is the cause of the gift-receiver. In a similar relationship, God is the cause of all things that exist in the world and all of His creation points to him. In the same way, the gifts from the giver point to that giver. This leads Aquinas to say that "he who has received a favor should, by repaying the favor, turn to his benefactor according to the mode of each." On Christmas, we owe our gift-givers thanksgiving and gratitude. Aquinas even notes that if someone gives a gift reluctantly or without joy, we still owe him thanks for his gift. Man is bound by justice to give thanks to every benefactor, and to do so with genuine gratitude.
Are we bound to repay for our gifts immediately?
Aquinas quotes the philosopher Seneca to begin his answer:
"He that hastens to repay, is animated with a sense, not of gratitude but of indebtedness."
Aquinas says that repaying immediately would seem more like paying a legal debt than giving true thanks. The best time to give thanks for our gifts is at a time that is convenient for the gift-giver. Imagine if we had thank-you cards pre-filled out on Christmas and immediately handed the card to the gift-giver as we opened our gift. This would look more like a chore than a true act of thankfulness. There is no hard and fast rule for when it is best to give thanks, and I'm sure it will be different for every gift recipient. The important thing is that Aquinas teaches us that we are to pay thanks back to our gift-givers when it is convenient for them, not when it is most convenient for us.
Should we be thankful for the gift alone?
Aquinas responds that our thanks should not just be for the gift itself, but also for the intention of the gift-giver. The thoughtfulness, joy, and love that go into giving gifts are more important than the gift itself. It really is the thought that counts. Our repayment for such gifts, then, should focus mostly on the thought and love behind the action of giving than exactly what the gift is. In Luke 21:1-4, it can be seen that Jesus taught the same. When the poor widow put two coins (a measly sum in comparison to other patrons) into the offering at the treasury, Jesus said that the widow "put in more than all of them" (Luke 21:3) because she gave all she had while the others gave out of their surplus wealth. The point is that the thought counts much more than the item, or the quantity, given. Hence, our thanks should extend beyond what we unwrap this Christmas and into the thought and generosity of the gift-giver.
Should our repayment of the gift be greater than the gift we received?
Again the answer is yes. This is both challenging and confusing. Aquinas concludes his section on gratitude by stating that "gratitude always inclines, as far as possible, to pay back something more." This requires getting away from our attitude of selfishness, which is very difficult to do. It is not enough just to repay, we must repay even more than what we have been given.
This also begs the question of when repayment ends. After all, if I repay my gift-giver more than he has given me, he would be required to do the same, and so on for infinity! Luckily, Aquinas addresses this very question. He says that "the debt of gratitude flows from charity, where the more it is paid, the more it is due" and that "it is not unreasonable if the obligation of gratitude has no limit." Imagine that! The idea of creating debt by giving thanks seems undesirable. However, this debt is different from legal or monetary debt and Aquinas insists that it is related to charity and might in fact have no limit. Remember, Aquinas isn't saying a $100 gift should be repaid with a $200 gift. Rather, the meaning and generosity behind the repayment should attempt to exceed that of the original gift.
Many things can be learned from Aquinas' discussion of gratitude. Firstly, we constantly owe thanks to God and others, not just those who give us private gifts on Christmas. Secondly, we owe gratitude and thanks to each of our gift-givers, no matter how joyfully the gift is given. Thirdly, our repayment to our gift-givers should come at a time convenient to the gift-givers, not at a time that is convenient for us or immediately upon the reception of our gift. Fourthly, our thanks should be not only for the actual gift but primarily for the love and graciousness of the gift-giver. Lastly, our repayment of the gift should flow from our genuine gratitude and be even greater than the gift we have received.
I pray that Aquinas' teaching on gratitude can help us be truly gracious this Christmas season as we receive the gifts that are given to us. Merry Christmas!
