Our mission: To find out exactly what men are looking for in a good girlfriend. Impossible? Not exactly. We simply turned to Lisa Daily, syndicated relationship columnist and author of Stop Getting Dumped, who promises to help readers find and marry "the one" in three years or less. Daily followed her own advice and married her dream man, who proposed at the top of the Eiffel Tower after a six-month courtship. Now, she is determined to help other single gals do the same. A dating guru, Daily interviewed — and continues to do so — hundreds of bachelors to find out what makes a woman marriage material in this day and age. Here, Daily dishes about the 10 traits every man is looking for in a serious girlfriend:
1. She has a life of her own — and it's pretty good to boot. Ladies, this means that you take care of yourself, pay attention to your personal style and find time to hang with your fabulous friends and family. You seek adventure by traveling. And you take in life's pleasures — from indulging in dessert to walking through the park on a sunny day. "You don't expect your boyfriend to be your entire existence," says Daily. In other words, you're not waiting for some man to show up, so you can get your "real life" started.
2. She never makes the first move. This issue has been debated to death, and there is no true consensus. But Daily says that she strongly believes women should never, ever pursue a man. Instead, she suggests waiting for the man to initiate and plan dates. Her reasoning: If the woman is always the one calling, she will never know if he is really interested in her or if it's just convenient for him. She may find herself questioning the relationship every step of the way. Men simply aren't programmed to think like that and therefore are better suited to the chase, Daily says.

Rochioli Special Cuvee Pinot Noir 2007
Pinot Noir from Russian River, California
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "The 2007 Pinot Noir Estate displays delicious plum, raspberry and black cherry notes, with hints of earth and roasted herbs. The wine is medium to full-bodied, already delicious, and should drink nicely for 7-8 years. Range 89-90. "
Rochiolli Winery
The Rochioli family has been growing grapes on its 136-acre ranch since the 1930s. In 1984, Tom Rochioli created the first wines to be produced under the Rochioli name. The 9000 case winery produces Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. View all Rochiolli Wines
About Russian RiverView a map of Russian River wineries
The Russian River Valley is named as such due to its proximity to the Russian River, the river itself named for the Russian fur traders who came down from Alaska in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The Russian River is agricultural land. While there is a focus on wine, beyond the vineyards are many small, family-owned farms cultivating everything from cattle to Christmas trees.
Notable FactsThe proximity of this cool river and the rolling fogs from the Pacific Ocean make the area amenable to cool-climate grapes like Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In fact, the region is quite known for its full-bodied, yet elegant Pinot Noir, as well as their ripe, yet lean Chardonnays. Within Russian River Valley lie the smaller appellations of Chalk Hill and Green Valley. Chalk Hill is the warmer of the two and furthest from the ocean, while Green Valley is cooler and closer to the water.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

One Thing my Husband Never Asks me to Say: Cheese

In spite of our marital problems, I try not to bash my husband. But after two consecutive long weekends of boozing, golfing and fishing, and coming home at 4:30 a.m. reeking of sausages and whores, I think he's fair game. You see, I found some pretty incriminating photos on his camera.

Mooresville police said Wednesday they are still looking for the man who robbed a convenience store early Tuesday.
Police now have released surveillance photos of the man who allegedly robbed the Circle K store in the 200 block of West Plaza Drive. The crime was reported about 1:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Police said the man entered the store and demanded money from the clerk. Investigators said the robber implied that he had a weapon but did not display it.
The suspect was described as a black male, about 6 feet tall and weighing 200 pounds. He was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, and he escaped in a black sedan, possibly a Honda Accord.
Anyone with information in the case is asked to contact Mooresville police at 704-664-3311.

Richard Childress Racing has three previous NASCAR Camping World Truck Series starts at the Hampton, Ga.-based facility, earning two top-10 finishes. The organization also boasts an 11th-place average starting position combined with a 9.7 average finishing position at the 1.54-mile track. Collectively, the Welcome, N.C.-based race team has completed 100 percent of the contested laps at Atlanta Motor Speedway and led for two circuits.
Truck Line-up … Tim George Jr. will pilot the No. 2 Applebee's/Potomac Family Dining Chevrolet this week at Atlanta Motor Speedway. The No. 2 team will join Ty Dillon and the No. 3 Bass Pro Shops/NRA Museum Chevrolet team along with Joey Coulter and the No. 22 Armour Chevrolet team for Friday's 130-lap event.
Catch the Action … Flag-to-flag coverage of Friday's Atlanta 200 is scheduled to be televised live on Friday, Aug. 31, beginning at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time on SPEED and broadcast live on the Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio beginning at 7:45 p.m.
Tim George Jr. #2 Applebee's/Potomac Family Dining Group Chevrolet
Week's Applebee's/Potomac Family Dining Group Chevrolet at Atlanta Motor Speedway … Tim George Jr. will pilot Chassis No. 025 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Camping World Truck Series stable this weekend in the Atlanta 200. George drove this chassis to a 15th-place finish at Pocono Raceway and 21st-place finish at Michigan International Speedway earlier this month. This RCR Chevrolet was also utilized by Kevin Harvick at Dover International Speedway in June where he earned the pole award and finished third.
The Peach State Details … This weekend's 130-lap affair marks George's first appearance at the Hampton, Ga.-based race track. The New York City native has made four Camping World Truck Series starts on 1.5-mile or larger tracks this year, posting one pole award at Kansas Speedway and two top-15 finishes.
Through the First Half … George has completed six of his 12 scheduled races on the 2012 Camping World Truck Series schedule. At this point in the season, the RCR driver earned one pole award at Kansas Speedway (April) and completed 98.6 percent (855 of 867) of the contested laps. George holds an average starting position of 12.7 and an average finishing position of 18th. Following this weekend's Atlanta 200, he is scheduled to participate in the Camping World Truck Series events at Iowa Speedway, Kentucky Speedway, Talladega Superspeedway, Martinsville Speedway and the season finale race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Owner Points … After 13 races in the 2012 season, the No. 2 Chevrolet team currently sits eighth in the Camping World Truck Series owner championship point standings courtesy of drivers Harvick, Brendan Gaughan and George.
Rearview Mirror: Bristol Motor Speedway … Gaughan and the No. 2 South Point Hotel & Casino team earned a top-five finish under the lights at Bristol Motor Speedway despite battling a loose-handling condition for a majority of the race.
This weekend marks your first appearance at Atlanta Motor Speedway; what are your thoughts heading into the weekend? "I'm excited to get the opportunity to race at Atlanta (Motor Speedway). I've watched a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race there from the spotters stand, that's the extent of my experience at the track. I've been racing with SIM Factory to try and figure out how to get around at Atlanta. I've heard it's kind of like Michigan (International Speedway), so hopefully I can take what I learned there a few weeks ago and use it this weekend."
Ty Dillon #3 Bass Pro Shops/NRA Museum Chevrolet
This Week's Bass Pro Shops/NRA Museum Chevrolet at Atlanta Motor Speedway … Ty Dillon will pilot Chassis No. 026 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Camping World Truck Series stable in Friday's Atlanta 200. This is a brand new RCR Chevrolet and will be put through its first paces this weekend.
Rookie Stripes … This week's 130-lap race marks Dillon's first appearance at the Hampton, Ga.-based facility. Although the Sunoco Rookie of the Year contender has yet to make any laps at Atlanta Motor Speedway, Dillon has 10 previous Camping World Truck Series starts on 1.5-mile or longer tracks, garnering two top-five and eight top-10 finishes and has led for 67 laps.
Points Battle … Dillon is third in the 2012 Camping World Truck Series driver championship point standings, 25 markers behind leader Timothy Peters.
Sunoco Rookie of the Year Update … Dillon leads the 2012 Sunoco Rookie of the Year point standings by 71 points ahead of driver Cale Gale.
Season to Date … Dillon has earned impressive stats with 13 races complete on the 2012 Camping World Truck Series schedule. According to NASCAR's Season-to-Date Loop Data Statistics, the Welcome, N.C., native is ranked second in Fastest Driver Early in a Run, Fastest on Restarts and Laps Run in the Top 15 (1.788) categories. Dillon has the series' third-highest Average Running Position (8.490) and Percentage of Laps Run on Lead Lap (96.99 percent), along with the third Fastest Speed in Traffic. He is ranked fourth in the following areas: Driver Rating (99.1) and Green Flag Speed.With 368 Quality Passes made over the first half of the season, Dillon ranks seventh amongst his competitors.
Race Rewind: Bristol … Dillon and the No. 3 Bass Pro Shops team started the 200-lap event at Bristol Motor Speedway from the 12th position and remained a fixture in the top 10 for the majority of the race. The Welcome, N.C., native was scored in the fourth position when the caution flag was displayed in the closing laps, setting the stage for a green-white-checkered finish. As the green flag waved for the final time, Dillon radioed to the No. 3 Bass Pro Shops team that his Chevrolet was out of fuel, relegating the team to a 21st-place result.
Friday's Atlanta 200 marks your first race at Atlanta Motor Speedway. What are your thoughts about the 200-lap event? "I'm really excited to race at Atlanta (Motor Speedway) this weekend. The team and I had a tough break last week at Bristol (Motor Speedway), so I'm ready to get back in the truck and turn our luck around. It'll be great to bring home a good finish with the NRA Museum on board the No. 3 Chevrolet this weekend."
With less than 10 races left in the 2012 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season, what are your goals for the remainder of the year? "Our ultimate goal is to win the championship and Sunoco Rookie of the Year honors. We have some ground to make up in the championship battle, but it's not completely out of our grasp. The entire Bass Pro Shops team has worked really hard this season and if they keep working toward that championship, I think we can battle for it there at the end."
Joey Coulter #22 Armour Vienna Sausages Chevrolet
This Week's Armour Vienna Sausages Chevrolet at Atlanta Motor Speedway … Joey Coulter will pilot Chassis No. 018 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Camping World Truck Series stable in Friday night's Atlanta 200. Coulter drove this Chevrolet to an 11th-place finish at Dover International Speedway in June, and a seventh-place finish at Kentucky Speedway in June. The Chevrolet was also utilized by Coulter in the 2011 season where he collected three top-10 and five top-15 finishes.
Atlanta Nuggets … Coulter has one previous start at the 1.54-mile track in the Camping World Truck Series. During his lone appearance in August 2011, Coulter started 20th and finished in the 13th position, completing 100 percent of the contested laps.
Last Trip to Georgia … Coulter and the No. 22 RCR team spent the majority of last year's event at Atlanta Motor Speedway running in the top 10 after starting from the 20th position. A long green-flag run at the end of the 130-lap affair, however, required one more trip to pit road for fuel and resulted in a 13th-place finish for Coulter.
Season So Far … With 13 races complete in the 2012 season, Coulter has collected one win, one pole award, three top-five and eight top-10 results. He holds an average starting position of 8.7 along with an average finishing position of 10.1 and completed 98.8 percent (2,004 of 2,028) of the contested laps.
Get to the Points … With his eighth top-10 finish of the 2012 season at Bristol Motor Speedway last week, Coulter remains seventh in the Camping World Truck Series driver championship point standings, 51 points behind the leader.
Rewind: Bristol Motor Speedway … Coulter qualified the No. 22 Steak-umm Chevrolet in the eighth position for the 200-lap affair at Bristol Motor Speedway. The Miami Springs, Fla., native remained a fixture in top 10 for the entire event and was contending for the win with eight laps to go but was shuffled back when the caution flag was displayed. As the field came around to take the green flag for the green-white-checkered finish, Coulter plunged forward crossing the start finish line in the fourth position.
What are your thoughts heading into the Atlanta 200 at Atlanta Motor Speedway? "I learned a lot racing at Atlanta (Motor Speedway) last year. I know we have a lot of good notes for that track and will unload with good equipment. The No. 22 team has been riding momentum since our victory at Pocono (Raceway) a few weeks back, and I think we can capitalize on it again this weekend."

Run game, defense send Patriots to AFC title game
|New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady walks of the field with the football after an AFC divisional NFL playoff football game against the Indianapolis Colts in Foxborough, Mass., Saturday, Jan. 11, 2014. The Patriots defeated the Colts 43-22 to advance the AFC Championship game. (AP Photo/Matt Slocum)
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The New England Patriots are back in the AFC championship game because of a dominant running attack and an opportunistic defense.
Oh yeah, and Tom Brady too.
You know, the guy who filled in as the holder on extra points when the starter got hurt.
In a game in which he became the first player to reach 6,000 yards passing in the postseason, Brady's main offensive roles were to adjust play calls at the line of scrimmage and hand the ball off.
New England rushed for 234 yards and beat the Indianapolis Colts 43-22 Saturday night to advance to Sunday's game against Denver.
The Patriots (13-4) got a 73-yard touchdown run from LeGarrette Blount and had four interceptions against Andrew Luck.
"The way our defense is getting the ball for us and, really, what we've done the last three or four weeks (with) the running game has just been awesome," Brady said. "Hopefully, we can do it next week, too."
And if he has to hold again for Stephen Gostkowski? Well, at least he has some experience.
Punter and holder Ryan Allen hurt his shoulder when he raced back after the ball was snapped over his head late in the second quarter. It resulted in a safety and the loss of Allen for the game.
When Stevan Ridley scored on a 3-yard run with 6:18 left in the third quarter, the Patriots went for a 2-point conversion. Ridley ran the ball in for a 29-15 lead.
"The holder was no factor at all. We were perfectly comfortable with Tom doing the holding," coach Bill Belichick said Sunday. "It was more just the strategic plan of either being up by 13 or being up by 14."
Brady did get two chances to hold on extra points after fourth-quarter touchdowns and, as usual, came through.
He said that the last time he held on extra points was in the 2000 Orange Bowl for Michigan. Michigan won 35-34 when Alabama's try for an extra point in overtime failed. Brady also threw four touchdown passes in that game.
"Maybe I'll try renegotiating my contract or something for doing more work," he joked after Saturday night's win. "I don't even do it in practice. They said, `Get in there and do it,' and I said, `What do I say?' But we figured it out."
Gostkowski said Brady does practice holding, just not every week.
"He's not as fine-tuned as Ryan is, but he did a good job," the kicker said.
Brady even pulled off a surprise punt on third down in New England's previous game, a 34-20 win over Buffalo in the regular-season finale.
He does whatever it takes to win, even if it means throwing for fewer than 200 yards in each of his past three games.
"Tom did a lot," wide receiver Julian Edelman said. "A lot of people don't understand that when you have a quarterback who can go out and put you in the right play every time, good things are going to happen."
So Brady handed the ball off 45 times and threw just 25 passes for 13 completions and 198 yards. Blount rushed for 166 yards, 73 coming on the touchdown before Gostkowski's kick out of Brady's hold made it 36-22.
After a slow start in his first season with the Patriots, Blount ran for a total of four touchdowns in his last two regular-season games then got four more against the Colts.
His 334 all-purpose yards (189 rushing, 145 returning kickoffs) against the Bills set a club record. The Patriots had 267 yards rushing in that game and 645 in their past three.
Blount tied Curtis Martin's team record of 166 yards rushing in a playoff game and is the only player besides Ricky Watters, who had five touchdowns for San Francisco on Jan. 15, 1994, with four or more in a postseason game.
"I'm really confident," Blount said. "Those guys in front of me, they don't get tired. I ain't going to get tired. And if we're going to be able to continue running the football like that throughout the playoffs, then I'll be happy."
The defense is bringing smiles, too.
Luck threw just nine interceptions in the regular season, but Alfonzo Dennard had two of New England's four. The Patriots had three sacks and held Luck to a season-low 53.0 passer rating.
"Any time we can get turnovers and get Tom and Blount, Ridley, get all those guys the ball back, it's good for us," said linebacker Dont'a Hightower, who had his first career interception. "It's good for the defense."
Now the Patriots are in their third straight AFC championship game with a chance at their second Super Bowl appearance in three years.
So Belichick and his assistants must devise new plans to move the ball and stop a different opponent.
"Whatever happened during the regular season or some other year or some other time, or whatever reference point you want to take, is really not that significant," he said. "What it's about is how things go on that particular day, just being at our best on the biggest game of the year."

2003 Kia Sorento Question: what way do you take crankpulley off
Answer #1mastertech6371 February 22, 2012, 17:05Master
the bolt is standard thread, right hand. remove going counter clockwise. it is very tight and must be re tightened to the same.
Replygibbyman, February 22, 2012, 17:59Rookie
Thanks Roy,How do you keep pulley from moving so the bolt will come off
Replymastertech6371, February 22, 2012, 18:13Master
i suggest an air operated gun as the torque is about 180+ lbs.
Replygibbyman, February 22, 2012, 18:36Rookie
Thanks Roy big help
Answer #2patrick mannion from Greg Solow's Engine Room, February 22, 2012, 21:08Master
Can you gain access to the flywheel teeth to stick a large screw driver in the teeth to stop it from moving as you try to undo the bolt (will take two people).Also put transmission in Park or 1rst gear and apply hand brake to "load" the drive train. Kia as a car manufacturer put a lot of great technical information and work shop manuals on line for free for Kia owners. www.kiatechinfo.com
Once bolt is off you may need a threaded harmonic balancer removal tool cheap from Harbor Freight or other on line tool store.

How Facebook Gains 20% From Here
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Facebook's (FB) third-quarter earnings are set for Wednesday and with so much momentum behind the company and the stock, Wall Street has been exceptionally positive on the social network as of late. In fact, one analyst believes shares could jump another 20% from here.
Credit Suisse analyst Stephen Ju raised his price target to $61, some 20% higher than current levels, given the prospects for 2014 earnings amid increased mobile monetization.
"While we maintain our positive bias on FB with the company set to capitalize on the continued movement of brand advertising budgets online, with shares already reflecting what we believe are near-to-medium term benefits of both mobile monetization as well as FBX, we maintain our Neutral rating for now," Ju wrote in a report.
Ju is raising his full-year 2013 and 2014 estimates for the social networking giant because of strength in advertising revenue. He now expects Facebook's revenue in 2013 to rise by 5.7% and in 2014 by 15.1%. Of that advertising revenue, Ju projects $3.1 billion in 2013 and $6.2 billion in 2014 will come from mobile advertising.For the third quarter, Ju expects Facebook to generate $1.9 billion in revenue, with $888 million coming from mobile advertising. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters are looking for Facebook to generate earnings of 18 cents a share on $1.91 billion in revenue. Facebook's mobile business has turned from a source of investor skepticism at the time of the company's initial public offering to a source of delight. Earlier this year, Facebook Chief Financial Officer David Ebersman told TheStreet the company fully transitioned to becoming a mobile company in 2012 and it expects to stay that way. "2012 was the year Facebook became a mobile company," Ebersman said in January. "Mobile provides a huge opportunity for Facebook, and we're working to make sure our ad products work well on mobile." In the second quarter, Facebook's mobile revenue accounted for 41% of the company's $1.6 billion in total advertising revenue, up 61% year-over-year. That is part of a larger trend, as the company has improved mobile revenue each quarter this year. In the first quarter of 2013, mobile revenue accounted for 30% of total advertising revenue.

Editor says, what if Galla Placidia had established her leadership years earlier? Please note that the opinions expressed in this post do not necessarily reflect the views of the author(s).
In 410 AD, on this fateful day, rebellious slaves were prevented from opening the Salarian Gate to let in Chieftain Alaric's Visigoth army camped outside the imperial city.Visigoths turned away from the gates of RomeThe city was now fully roused to the licentious fury of the tribes of Germany and Scythia. They mobilized around the leadership of former Emperor's half-sister Galla Placidia. With the Roman Senate unable to
pay the besieging army to go away, and the authorities in Ravenna still unwilling to grant land to the Visigoths, they took matters into their own hands. And made a desperate last stand that brought pride and honor to the eleven hundred and sixty-three year of the city. During the struggle Alaric fell ill and died; his brother Athaulf retreated to south-west France and established his own Kingdom.

5 Must-Have NFL Apps for 2014
PORTLAND, Ore.(TheStreet) – The NFL doesn't hide the fact that mobile technology is a huge part of its future.
It's a big part of the reason Atlanta is paying $200 million in tax dollars to replace a Georgia Dome that's little more than 20 years old. It's a huge part of why Minnesota is on the hook for nearly $500 million of the cost of a $1 billion stadium for the Vikings that's set to host the Super Bowl in 2018. It's playing a big role in the opening of the San Francisco 49ers new stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., right in the middle of Silicon Valley.
The NFL needs technology on its side largely because technology has become its biggest threat. NFL game attendance jumped from a post-recession low of 17.14 million in 2010 to 17.3 million last year, but was still well short of the record 17.6 million that came out in 2006 and 2007. There were nearly 1 million empty seats at regular season games in 2012, up 50% from just four years earlier. Meanwhile ticket revenue has stagnated from increases of 7.2% annually from 2004 through 2008 to just 2.1% from 2008 through 2012, according to Team Marketing Report.
Why attend games when high-definition broadcasts look great from the warm, cozy, inexpensive confines of your own home? There's a reason why 34 out 35 of the most-watched TV broadcasts last fall and more than 205 million U.S. viewers total watched games on television last year. Collectively, 21st Century Fox, CBS and Comcast's NBC agreed to pay the NFL $28 billion for broadcast rights through 2022. Walt Disney's EPSN has a separate $1.9 billion annual deal for Monday Night Football, while DirecTV has a $1 billion per season agreement for the NFL Sunday Ticket package that is set to become even more lucrative once the current contract expires in 2015. Even Thursday Night Football draws TV money, as CBS paid $275 million for the rights to it for 2014.Read More: How to Cut the Cord on the NFL This Season Little more than a year ago, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell admitted that high-definition television was one of the league's greatest strengths. He noted, however, that it isn't exactly doing wonders for attendance. "One of our biggest challenges in the league is the experience at home," Goodell said. "HD is only going to get better." That's especially true in the cold-weather markets, where no amount of technology can take the bitter chill off late season games and where the Buffalo Bills last season continued their tradition of blacking out late-season games. The NFL and its partners have started gearing their apps toward enhancing the live game experience, but also seem to hope that people will use them even as they're watching another game at home. We took some time to go app shopping and found five that will help you brave the elements at the stadium, but also make life a little easier if you're juggling games and managing a fantasy football roster at home: NFL Sunday Ticket
Available for: Apple iPhone, iPod, iPad, Google Android, Android Tablet
Price: Free to download, $55 monthly or $330 six-month subscription required Nobody has any idea where the NFL Sunday Ticket package will end up next year, so jump on it while DirecTV still has exclusive rights. DirecTV still offers a package that features every NFL game every Sunday in HD, a player stat tracker and up to eight games at once on the Mix channel and dropped to $240, but the more flush Max package untouched is what you need to go mobile. The good news is that the Red Zone channel, the new Fantasy Zone fantasy football channel, the Short Cuts channel of condensed 30-minute games and connection to NFL.com's fantasy football leagues are all included. You can even watch two games playing at the same time. The bad news? There's a not-so-slim chance that this all changes dramatically next year.

Discussion in 'The Fire For Effect and Totally Politically Incorr' started by jbmid1, Sep 27, 2011.
Amnesty anyone?
i see we have similar problems ..
what's not said is this guy and his fathers history , they been deported 2 times each
the bride to be in a convert via conlon , her history , drug dealing , violence , weapons possesions..
but born here..
and anchor wife to be
And tonight's news from Phoenix -
funny that .. anyone see a pattern ?
we are not allowed to know how many people charged are illegally here, but we can find out a percentage of usage of the Legal Aid system and 64% of all costs for cases here are for illegals, so figure that out
makes you want to close and seal the borders. but, that's not the way to solve the problem.
I feel ashamed to call myself a MA resident. They way our courts, judges, legislators and politicians coddle the illegals here is sick and disturbing. You think a few DWI convictions is bad ...we have had murders set free just to go on to kill again. And they see nothing wrong with the system.
Don't feel guilty. As you can plainly see it is not just in MA.
I just feel dirty - hence the name
Feels like the birthplace of freedom is now the grave site of our constitution.
Many gravesites nationwide
Separate names with a comma.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Not only did I get my thank you cards from wedding paper divas, but all of my wedding invitations which were stunning and flawless!!"
"The cards were lovely, and my family loved them. I changed the color to sea glass (custom color) and the print to a dark brown to better match my color scheme, and was very happy with how they looked. My only concern was that the envelopes were a little small. I could just barely get the card in the envelope."
"I personalized this card with shimmer paper and the colors: smoke for the background then coast blue for the ribbon/border."
"I originally requested this Thank You card to say my fiance and I's first and new last name on it. Before it was about to be shipped I had the option to review and make any changes to it if i wish, and I am so glad this company does it! I totally changed my mind on the design and requested the text to be positioned in 3 different rows that stated: Thank You from (our names here). It fit perfectly and it came in the font I wanted. All of my requests were totally different from what I originally had and Wedding Paper Divas were able to change my design into something totally different! Thank you so much!"
"First, I want to say all the samples they provide were so pretty. It was so difficult to choose. So in the end I went with this style and was able to make changes to my style/taste. Customer service was amazing and super quick to give me my proofs and revisios...I had my order out within a week of placing it. You cannot get better than that. ALSO, I accidently forgot to apply the coupon discount and not only did they respond quickly to my email, they reimbursed me the difference. You guys and gals are the best. Thank you for a wonderful experience and for amazing thank you cards! Liz"

We don't have a known correct explanation, but a collision with a large protoplanet has the ability to result in Venus' spin axis being flipped N -> S and its very slow rate. That it doesn't satisfy you doesn't make it laughable.

Nonresonance rotation of Venus
Radar observations accumulated over the past 14 yr are used to make a precise estimate of the spin vector of Venus. The results obtained show that the spin vector of Venus may be adequately described in the standard 1950.0 coordinate system by a period of 243.01 + or - 0.03 days (retrograde) and a north pole direction corresponding to alpha = 272.8 + or - 0.5 deg and delta = 67.2 + or - 0.3 deg; the quoted errors represent estimates of 70% confidence intervals. The angular separations between the spin vector and those vectors representing the unit normals to the invariable plane of the solar system and the orbital plane of Venus are found to be 0.5 deg and 2.6 deg, respectively.
It is concluded that Venus is not rotating with a resonance spin period relative to the orbit of earth
and that the spin of Venus may be in a generalized Cassini state.

December 22, 2014
A Grass Valley man on trial for murder says he felt possessed while he strangled his wife and shot her three times with a nail gun.
Richard Williams says he felt like he was on autopilot during the killing in October 2005.
Williams told jurors he had stopped taking his antidepressant medication when he shot his wife, then himself with the nail gun. Williams wrote a suicide note before trying to kill himself.
He cried as he described shooting the first nail into his wife. But he otherwise showed little emotion during Friday's testimony.
Nevada County prosecutors say Williams planned the slaying weeks
in advance.
The case is being tried in Napa County because there was too much media coverage in Nevada County.

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.

Keeping Families Together to Prevent Youth Homelessness
Sparky Harlan is being honored as a Champion of Change for her work to combat homelessness among children and youth.
It takes great leaders to tackle a huge issue like ending homelessness. I am proud to be working with the White House and the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) and to be recognized as a Champion of Change for working to end youth and family homelessness.
In 2010, when I first heard USICH announce the Opening Doors plan, which included ending youth and family homelessness by 2020, I was a bit skeptical. After all, I had been working with runaways and homeless street youth in the San Francisco/San Jose area for over 40 years. How was the country going to end youth and family homelessness during an economic downturn, when families were losing their homes to foreclosures and unemployment was climbing?
Each year the Bill Wilson Center serves over 10,000 individuals in Silicon Valley, providing counseling, housing, education, and advocacy. It is estimated that on any given night there are 1,500 homeless youth in San Jose either on the streets, couch surfing, or trading sex for a place to stay. We provide a continuum of services for youth and young families that includes street outreach and a drop-in center for homeless youth, emergency shelter, transitional housing, and permanent and supportive housing. Our vision is to prevent poverty by helping youth make the connections they need to be self-sufficient adults. Our primary goal is to keep families together and teach them the skills they need to prevent future crises.
Locally, I have started a campaign along with other community leaders in order to develop a plan on how we are going to end youth and family homelessness by 2020. We have chosen to combine youth and families because of our strong belief that youth and family members have a better chance of success if they remain together. Our research shows that even older homeless youth are more likely to make the successful transition out of homelessness with the support of their family. When their family is also homeless, then the primary work shifts to keeping the family housed or rapidly re-housing them.
After listening to USICH's June 2012 webcast focusing on strategies to end youth homelessness, I was energized. USICH realizes that we need more data to determine how many youth are homeless and that there are subsets of youth who are more at-risk of becoming homeless than others. The Bill Wilson Center has taken the lead in San Jose to conduct Point-In-Time (PIT) counts of homeless youth and we will be part of a panel presentation on our experience at the upcoming National Alliance to End Homelessness conference in Washington, D.C. At the same time, we are working to ensure our services reflect the best practices available to serve homeless youth.
Taking the lead on ending youth and family homelessness in Santa Clara County is not an easy undertaking. I know a lot about youth homelessness, but I'm still learning about the broader issue of family homelessness. My hope is that we can work collectively with the experts operating local domestic violence shelters and nonprofit family shelters, as well as with government and corporate leaders and school district personnel to develop one comprehensive plan to end youth and family homelessness in Santa Clara County. Usually I like to storm ahead and quickly tackle a problem. For this effort I am starting slowly, using social media so the best and brightest can be a part of the planning process. I believe that through collaboration, we can end youth and family homelessness by 2020.
Sparky Harlan is CEO of the Bill Wilson Center.

All Copart Locations Up And Running!
Copart, Inc. (NASDAQ: CPRT), a global live virtual vehicle auction company, today announced that all 28 facilities located in the area most heavily impacted by Hurricane Sandy are fully operational and working to pick up vehicles. In the wake of Hurricane Sandy the number of flooded and damaged cars, boats and equipment left behind could be the largest quantity seen on the east coast since Hurricane Andrew. Copart's highly developed Catastrophe Action Team (CAT) was activated prior to Sandy's landfall and was immediately put into action after the hurricane subsided. Copart is prepared to provide the people, equipment and facilities to address the immediate need for the collection and processing of damaged assets.
"We are working to assist all of our customers both internal and external to make sure this catastrophe recovery is handled in the most safe and efficient way possible, as was the case when Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005," said Copart's CEO, Jay Adair. "Our preparation for hurricane Sandy started days ago. Our team and company are working day and night to serve our customers."
Copart, founded in 1982, provides vehicle sellers with a full range of remarketing services to process and sell salvage and clean title vehicles to dealers, dismantlers, rebuilders, exporters and, in some states, to end users. Copart remarkets the vehicles through Internet sales utilizing its patented VB 2 technology. Copart sells vehicles on behalf of insurance companies, banks, finance companies, fleet operators, dealers, car dealerships and others as well as cars sourced from the general public. The company currently operates 157 facilities in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates. Salvage vehicles are either damaged vehicles deemed a total loss for insurance or business purposes or are recovered stolen vehicles for which an insurance settlement with the vehicle owner has already been made.
