In mid-August, 2011, McDonnell was named chairman of the National Governors Association, replacing Texas Governor Rick Perry.[1]
He has also served in the Virginia House of Delegates for the City of Virginia Beach from 1992 to 2005.
Moving with his father's Air Force career, Bob McDonnell was born in Philadelphia, moved to Virginia a year later, and spent several years in Germany in his childhood. During his own time in the U.S. Army, McDonnell would again he stationed in Germany.
Bob McDonnell is a 1972 graduate from Bishop Ireton High School in Alexandria, Virginia. He later received a B.B.A. from the University of Notre Dame in 1976, which he attended on a ROTC scholarship. He went on to receive a M.B.A. from Boston University in 1980, and a M.A./J.D. from Regent University. McDonnell served in the U.S. Army for twenty-one years, and retired with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. After leaving active duty in 1981, he joined American Hospital Supply Corporation.
McDonnell was elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in 1992, and has held the positions of Assistant Majority Leader and Chairman of the Courts of Justice Committee. In addition, he served on the Committees on Health, Welfare and Institutions, and the Rules Committee.

Political career
Governor of Virginia (2010-Present)
McDonnell was first elected Governor of Virginia in 2009 and assumed office on January 16, 2010.
Pension fund
McDonnell unveiled a plan in late December 2010 that would have all employees, new and current, contribute 5 percent of their pay to their retirement. At that time, McDonnell outlined that he would give them a 3 percent salary increase. "This is a start for fixing the pension system that has been out of whack for years and years. I will not pass on a broken system to another governor," McDonnell said.
The governor's plan could leave employees with a cut in take-home pay. At least one employee group voiced concern. The Virginia Government Employees Association is pleased that McDonnell is making an effort to return the retirement system to sound financial footing, but it is not happy with what it perceives as a reduction in pay for members. "We have deep concerns about his proposal to have current state employees begin contributing 5 percent of their salary to the retirement system," VGEA said in a statement release after the governor's announcement. "While the governor is attempting to keep employee salaries whole in the proposal, he relies on a potential pay bonus using year-end savings in the state budget to do so. The net effect is that without the bonus, state employees could face a pay cut amounting to a little over 2 percent."[2]
Virginia energy
Virginia was one of the states preparing to engage in offshore drilling and when President Obama put the moratorium on offshore drilling after the BP oil spill disaster in 2010, Gov. McDonnell was vocally upset. "We didn't give up when we had the Challenger disaster in the space program or when we had nuclear meltdowns on Three Mile Island. We did what Americans always do in making progress — we found solutions and moved forward. But this is probably going to slow us down," the governor said.
McDonnell held a conference with nearly 800 leaders from the energy industry in October 2010, "The Governor's Conference on Energy," to tout his message that Virginia will be the energy capital of the East. "I've been a very strong proponent of using all of Virginia's resources — coal, natural gas, oil, wind, nuclear, offshore-gas, oil, wind alternatives – all of these are a part of our quest for independence," McDonnell told WTOP radio spring 2010. McDonnell has also indicated favor towards nuclear power; as of October 2010, Virginia has two nuclear power plants in Surry County and Louisa County. McDonnell says he wants to add more: "Lynchburg, Va. can be the nuclear capital of America," McDonnell told Virginia Statehouse News. "It's clean — very few environmental concerns. Since the meltdown at Three-Mile Island, there have been tremendous technological advancements made. I think it's a huge part of America's future."[3]
Freezes and bonuses
McDonnell handed out a one-time bonus to state employees in 2010, but said they should not expect a permanent raise. State employees received a 3-percent bonus in late November 2010, their first pay boost of any kind in three years. The day before the bonus distribution, McDonnell applauded President Obama's two-year freeze of federal worker's wages and said the tough economic times call for austerity. "We got a $13.5 trillion national debt. Everybody understands now, federal spending is out of control. We've got to be able to rein things in," McDonnel said on WTOP radio. "I think it's a prudent step. It's a good start, but they got to do a whole lot more than that if they want to get this budget deficit under control and restore fiscal responsibility in Washington."[4]
One of Gov. McDonnell's key issues has been Virginia transportation. In December 2010, McDonnell told the Governor's Transportation Conference that he will spend $400 million on road construction immediately and ask to borrow nearly $3 billion more. "The more we build today, the better deal we provide to our citizens," he told the gathering of lawmakers and highway industry representatives.
McDonnell said he would take advantage of the low highway-construction costs in late 2010 to early 2011. He planned to ask the General Assembly to pour money into the state's transportation funding. The governor said the state has dropped the ball on transportation funding and indicated he intends to make that up with several measures. The transportation budget has been cut multiple times in the years before McDonnell was inaugurated, totaling $6 billion in cuts, McDonnell said.
"Over the past two decades, state support for transportation has not kept up with our growth as a Commonwealth. This has led to more congestion, longer commutes and missed economic opportunities, McDonnell said. McDonnell intends to infuse a transportation infrastructure bank with cash, specifically $150 million from the budget surplus and $250 million from an audit of the Virginia Department of Transportation.[5]
$3 billion proposal
As part of his budget amendments, McDonnell said he wants to help pay for $4 billion in new transportation spending by issuing $3 billion in bonds. A majority of the new bonds McDonnell is suggesting were already approved in 2007, but had yet to be sold. He's hoping to raise $1.8 billion within three years by selling those bonds at twice the speed: $600 million per year instead of the original $300 million per year. "I don't think that selling bonds that are already authorized, and are already built into our existing debt capacity models, getting the best deals in modern Virginia history and putting thousands of Virginians to work while doing it, should be that controversial," McDonnell said last Friday.
Most legislators seemed to agree, but they were confused about the governor's wish to raise $1.1 billion by issuing a type of bonds called GARVEE bonds that are paid by the federal government to help fund pre-approved transportation projects.[6]
Attorney General of Virginia (2006-2009)
McDonnell won election as the [[Attorney General of Virginia] in 2005, narrowly defeating state Senator Creigh Deeds by just 323 votes.[7]
Virginia House of Delegates (1992-2006)
McDonnell was first elected to the Virginia House of Delegates in 1992 and served seven terms representing the 84th District. He served as chair of the Courts of Justice Committee, co-chair of the Agriculture, Chesapeake and Natural Resources Committee, and as Assistant Majority Leader.
In 2009, McDonnell defeated state Sen. Creigh Deeds to win Virginia's gubernatorial election. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce gave McDonnell substantial support, giving $972,877 to his campaign. Four year prior, the Chamber had given $400,000 towards Republican Jerry Kilgore's failed bid for governor.[8]
In 2005, McDonnell ran for Attorney General of Virginia. The first result showed him with a victory of 323 votes, out of over 1.9 million votes cast, over opponent Creigh Deeds. Deeds went on to file for a recount, which began on December 20, 2005. After preliminary figures revealed 37 additional votes for McDonnell, Deeds conceded, giving McDonnell a 360 vote margin of victory.[9]
Presidential preference
Bob McDonnell endorsed Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election. [10]
McDonnell and his wife, Maureen, have five children.

Last Day to Close on Flood Damaged Properties
CEDAR RAPIDS, IA (CBS2/FOX28) Sunday night and Monday mornings flash flooding in Eastern Iowa brought back a lot of memories of the Floods of 2008.
While city crews work to clean up on Monday they're also being forced to focus on damage done back then.
The city of Cedar Rapids has until the end of the day today (Monday) to close on remaining buy-out offers for several of those properties.
After the floods, the city offered buy outs to more than 1,300 homes and businesses.
In 2008, flood water destroyed more than 5,000 properties in Cedar Rapids and caused millions of dollars in damage.

Can somebody help me out? I wanna love this I bought a full size and I love the coverage. It just seems to me it does not last long. I have been using EM foundation for a while now and no breakouts acutally I have not had one since I started using it. And I get cystic acne! Anyway still will repurchase but I need it to last a little longer on me and the matte makes me look dull. I have oily skin in the nose and forehead normal to dry in the rest of my face!

I have this foundation in sunkissed fair and it is a perfect match for my skintone. When I get a little darker in the summer, I just add some of their bronzer to darken it up a little. This foundation works as well as the more expensive mineral makeup I have tried and I like the coverage better. I follow it up w/ the finishing powder and I am good to go. The only thing I don't like about all mineral make-ups-and this one is no exception-is how freakin messy it is!!! I hate that I can't travel due to how most of the product ends up in the lid. I did hear though that Everyday Minerals were putting in a covering over the sifter, so maybe it will be less messy :)
after using pervious foundations my face was left with horrible acne. i mean all over my chin on my cheeks and all over my forhead. i needed to find a product that would be alot lighter on my skin or not wear makeup at all. i found this product really helped my skin get clear. the only time i will get a pimple is that time of the month. yes it is chalky but i just use fix+ or spray some water on my face and use a duo fibre brush and buff over it. then it just givs a realy nice dewy finish. i love this foundation. i strongly reccomend this for ladys or fellas that are havin problems with their skin due to there liquid foundation.:) xoxo
I have sensitive, reactive skin. I have used this foundation for the past few years. I have had no problems with it. It gives good coverage. I picked it because of the ewg rating on it being safe. I have been happy with it.
This formula gives a slightly chalky and flat finish compared to the others. It also gets shiny on me after a couple of hours. I find that the matte gives just as good coverage.

I have this in the winged butter shade which is nice for my Asian skintone. The application for this mineral foundation was tricky for me, I had to make sure my skin was well moisturized. When I first applied it looked like nothing was on my skin, but it takes a moment for it to sink in or start looking natural. Instead of caking on a lot of layers I used the Intensive concealer. This photographed beautifully in bright sunlight, it looked flawless. A few negatives are that it's chalky , and can feel slightly itchy on the skin. Long lasting, matte and if applied correctly beautiful coverage.

This foundation looks great on my skin but after a couple days of using it my face started breaking out really bad. This foundation also dried out my skin. I have tried the other formulas in EDM but they also gave me breakouts.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
UPDATE: Turns out my face reaction was from the benzaclin and retin-a doing it's thing by burning and itching and giving me the worst initial break out of my life NOT everyday minerals.. my face has cleared up substantially since I wrote the negative review (retin-a tends to make your skin disgusting before getting better, finally getting better!! =D)
I love everyday minerals now .. I don't use intensive because I prefer the matte formulation.. but I am sure intensive is great as other reviewers have remarked..
I love the price of this foundation .. you get so much , top quality for such a low price and the brushes are the best out there for just 10 dollars.. I LOVE that each time I purchase an order, I simply enter in a promo code and always score a free full sized goodie, from eye shadows to liners, to bronzers .. I also love that they are so confident with the product that free samples are given .. the samples last way more than 3 to 5 uses and can be mixed so that you can away with using these as a back up god forbid you run out of your full sized everyday minerals..
I am itching like crazy right now: my face was clearing up since starting my benzaclin/retin-A routine. I ditched bare minerals because I thought the Bismuthe ingredient was irritating my skin and read great reviews about everyday minerals. I tried the sample kit, and bought intensive and matte three days later... Everything was fine. The coverage kind of looked cakey and made me insanely oily (even though I am suffering with DRY skin from the acne treatments), but I figured over time I would learn to perfect application. I was so excited about everyday minerals that I bought brushes, and 3 foundations: 2 in intensive and 1 in matter. Now I feel like an utter fool because my face is in severe pain.. covered in cysts on my chin, jaw line, fore head, and cheeks. I look disgusting and feel itchy and horrible. I want to cry, but it would hurt my skin to MOVE. I don't know if this is the result of using monistat as a primer twice .. or if I am allergic to the mineral make up, perhaps I don't wash my brushes enough (but hear that washing too much causes bristle damage) or maybe I am buffing the product in too much and clogging my pores? I DON"T KNOW ALL I KNOW IS THAT I AM SUFFERING ITCHY AND IN PAIN. MY SKIN HURTS!! Liquid foundation never did this to me, whyyyyy did I decide to try minerals?!?! Should I return the products and get my money back .. should I wait and see if it was the monistat primer? ahhh !!
When i first started using this product , I only had old acne scars that were healing on the right side of my face. I wanted to use this product to cover up my old scars. At first it seemed to work well but after a couple of weeks i started breaking out in spots that i have never broken out in, like my forehead and left side of my face. I thought it was the new moisturizer i was using so i continued on using the EM. I would notice a new zit every week. The more I broke out the more i tried to cover. The concealer didn't even cover that well for me. Then finally I realized it was probably the everyday minerals that was causing my breakouts. I stopped using it and used adovia acne cleaning products to clear it up. Now my weekly acne break outs have improved. My acne problem is slowly but surely healing. I wont be using any mineral makeup again. Right now im using physicians formula but the coverage could be alot better.
First of all I'd like to say that this stuff makes BE foundations look like cheap cheap crap!! This is what I thought BE was supossed to be when I bought the starter kit and wasted $60. I wish someone had told me that what I was looking for was just a few clicks away for a fraction of the price sooner ($12 full size, $2.50 sample size). I have this in Fair and it is a good match for cool toned fair skin like mine. This gives great coverage for a mineral foundation (medium buildable) and is semi-matte with no glitter, shimmer, or sparkle (yay!!). I also got the flat top brush from everyday minerals and I'm wondering how I ever lived without it before! Only $10 and it's one of the softest brushes I own. Gives a beautiful application and can be used to buff or stipple on liquid foundation too. Overall really love this as an everyday foundation. One lippie off for only being available via the internet and I wish it had a locking sifter to avoid messes. Everyday Minerals gets extra points though for selling samples (still working on mine after 3 weeks wearing 3 or 4 times a week) and giving out free sample kits with any purchase!

Seventy-four senators voted this week to begin debate on a sweeping bill to curb carbon emissions, but agreement on any point of law from now on gets tougher.
The terms of the debate have shifted dramatically from 2003 and 2005, when the Senate rejected previous moves to curb global warming.
Largely out of this week's debate are cries that global warming is a "hoax" or that claims that carbon emissions affect the climate are simply bad science. There's also broad agreement that Washington should increase investments in clean energy technology.
Instead, the fault line in this week's debate is the scope of the role for Washington in curbing emissions and its likely impact on the economy.
"Climate change is an issue that all of us are concerned about, but there's a right way and a wrong way to tackle the problem. And driving the price of gasoline even higher is clearly not the way to go," said Republican leader Mitch McConnell at a briefing on Tuesday.
GOP opponents say the proposed Senate bill will cost $6.7 trillion over the 50-year life of the bill and increase gas prices by anywhere from 53 cents to $1.40 a gallon by 2050, the result of which will be increased costs for American families and more manufacturing jobs sent to foreign countries.
"Unless we have the technology to make a steep and quick emissions cut that the sponsors want, this bill will do nothing but add $6.7 trillion, a tax increase on American families and workers," says Rep. James Inhofe (R) of Oklahoma, the leading opponent of global-warming legislation.

|Did you see in the Business news that iVillage is about to be purchased by NBC? I wonder what changes that will bring to use here at Gardenweb if any. I read about it in the business section of the New York Times. I don't know if the link will work but I'll try to include it.

What experience and history teach is this - that nations and governments have never learned anything from history, or acted upon any lessons they might have drawn from itGeorg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
When there is a lack of honor in government, the morals of the whole people are poisonedHerbert Clark Hoover
The role of the teacher remains the highest calling of a free people. To the teacher, America entrusts her most precious resource, her children; and asks that they be prepared ... to face the rigors of individual participation in a democratic societyShirley Mount Hufstedler
The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government -- lest it come to dominate our lives and interestsPatrick Henry
The liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be, secure, when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from themPatrick Henry
Every step we take towards making the State our Caretaker of our lives, by that much we move toward making the State our MasterDwight Eisenhower
If we have Senators and Congressmen there that can't protect themselves against the evil temptations of lobbyists, we don't need to change our lobbies, we need to change our representativesWill Rogers
Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rightsThomas Jefferson
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, GovernmentsThomas Jefferson
It is the common failing of totalitarian regimes that they cannot really understand the nature of our democracy. They mistake dissent for disloyalty. They mistake restlessness for a rejection of policy. They mistake a few committees for a country. They misjudge individual speeches for public policyLyndon Baines Johnson
A compassionate government keeps faith with the trust of the people and cherishes the future of their childrenLyndon Baines Johnson

Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed itMark Twain
Government cannot make man richer, but it can make him poorerLudwig von Mises
The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my legThomas Jefferson
The government is good at one thing...it knows how to break your legs, and then hand you a crutch and say 'see if it weren't for the government you wouldn't be able to walkHarry Browne
An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens . . . There has never been a moment of my life in which I should have relinquished for it the enjoyments of my family, my farm, my friends and books.Thomas Jefferson
No man is good enough to govern another man without that other's consentAbraham Lincoln
I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that 'all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.' To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power not longer susceptible of any definitionThomas Jefferson
A civil servant is sometimes like a broken cannon - it won't work and you can't fire it.George S. Patton
The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishmentRobert M. Hutchins
If human beings are fundamentally good, no government is necessary; if they are fundamentally bad, any government, being composed of human beings, would be bad alsoFred Woodworth
The Government of the absolute majority instead of the Government of the people is but the Government of the strongest interests; and when not efficiently checked, it is the most tyrannical and oppressive that can be devised.John Caldwell Calhoun

Enjoyed the stay at Hyde Park Hotel London. Quiet area. Very nice staff. Bed was bit hard. TV poor viewing
Staff friendly and accommodating with customer requests for iron and frying pan and room change from the basement room to the second floor but unfortunately only after the first night. Be sure NOT to get a basement room. Better call and ask! The mildew smell in basement was unbearable.
We had a comfortable, clean room at Hyde Park Hotel London

Intellectual Property Law Solutions to Tax Avoidance
Andrew Blair-Stanek
University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law
June 4, 2014
UCLA Law Review, Forthcoming
Multinational corporations use intellectual property (IP) to avoid taxes on a massive scale, by transferring their IP offshore for artificially low prices. Economists estimate that this abuse costs the U.S. Treasury as much as $90 billion each year. Yet tax policymakers and scholars have been unable to devise feasible tax-law solutions to this problem.
This Article introduces an entirely new solution: change IP law rather than tax law. Multinationals' tax-avoidance strategies rely on undervaluing their IP. This Article proposes extending existing IP law so that these low valuations make it harder for multinationals subsequently to litigate or to license the IP. For example, transferring a patent for a low price to a tax-haven subsidiary should make it harder for the multinational to demonstrate the patent's validity, a competitor's infringement, or entitlement to any injunctions. The low transfer price should also weigh toward lower patent damages and potentially even a finding of patent misuse. Extending IP law in such ways would deter multinationals from using IP to avoid taxes. Both case law and IP's theoretical justifications support this approach, which also has the counterintuitive benefit of encouraging the flourishing of creative professionals such as inventors and authors.

Right Side News, by Col. Tom Snodgrass (Ret.) Nov. 17, 2014:
Confusion Due To Faulty Assumptions
Consider the assumptions that underlie the current U.S. National Security Policy toward the Middle East and the wider Islamic world:
1. The Westphalian nation-state concept imposed on the Middle East by the Sykes-Picot Agreement in the aftermath of World War I is still an operative approach to partition peoples and territories into political entities, while ignoring the reality of the culture and history of religious, tribal, and geographical divisions.
2. The Sykes-Picot creation of the state of Iraq can function viably with a combined Shia-Sunni-Kurd government, while the similarly created state of Syria will also be viable with a combination Alawite-Sunni-Shia-Kurd polity functioning together.
3. The territorial sovereignty represented by the Iraq-Syrian border is still valid.
4. The U.S. can maintain simultaneous, balanced, effective alliances with Sunnis, Shiites, Kurds, and the various regional minor sects like Alawites.
5. The Khomeinist-Shia mullah government will negotiate discontinuation of their nuclear weapons development program and additionally will serve as a U.S. partner in maintaining political stability in the area of the Persian Gulf.
6. The Saudi, Egyptian, and Gulf Arab Sunnis will compliantly acquiesce to the new U.S.- Khomeinist-Shia Iranian alliance.
7. The absence of a two state Israel-Palestine solution is the driving force of Middle East instability, and it is the Israelis that are responsible for the impasse.
8. Turkey is a secular ally and is not pursuing a Sunni Islamist agenda.
9. Islamic jihad is not a politico-theocratic, imperialistic doctrine that is the organizing principle of Islam as mandated in the Quran, the Hadith, the Sira, and the Sharia and that those Muslims engaged in jihad are merely an isolated fringe.
The Reality
1. The nation-states created by Sykes-Picot have never functioned as intended and instead have been just geographical cauldrons for life-and-death, religious-tribal warfare for the political power to exploit religious-tribal enemies.
2. The reality of #1 above has been violently the case in Iraq and Syria where tribal-sectarian warfare has been what has masqueraded as "national politics" since their foundings.
3. The Sunni Islamic State has forever erased the Sykes-Picot political boundary between Iraq and Syria restoring cultural-historical, religious-tribal territorial hegemonies.
4. The Islamic world is on the brink of a total sectarian Sunni-Shia war for leadership of the Islamic jihad movement. The U.S. would be insane to get involved on one side or the other because the U.S. loses regardless which sectarians prevail.
5. It defies all sensibility to honestly believe that, after the Khomeinist-Shia mullah government of Iran has sacrificed so much national wealth and endured economically debilitating international sanctions, they will forego acquiring the nuclear means to their Khomeinist-Shia jihadist goals, as well as to regional hegemony over neighboring Sunnis.
6. With the Islamic world is on the brink of a total sectarian Sunni-Shia war and the Iranian mullahs on the verge of becoming a nuclear power, the Saudi, Egyptian, and Gulf Arab Sunnis will not hesitate to follow courses of action that are sectarian-religious and tribal motivated, which inevitably will be at cross purposes with U.S. interests.
7. A two state Israel-Palestine solution can never be achieved because it is written in the Islamic Sharia that once a territory is ruled by Sharia law (as Israel was under the Ottomans), it can never again be under the domination of non-Muslims. Therefore according to Sharia, it is obligatory that Muslims fight jihadist war until the territory is once again under Islamic control (such is the essence of the Hamas founding-purpose charter).
8. The Ataturk secularization of Turkey has failed, and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his Justice and Development Party ("AKP" in Turkish) have been slowly and deceptively introducing a Sunni Islamist political agenda piecemeal, while changing the Turks' orientation from secular to Sunni Islamist. The Turks are no longer the reliable Cold War allies they once were.
9. Mohammad clearly stated to Muslims and is quoted in Islamic scripture: "I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, and they establish prayer and pay zakat [which is charity only for fellow Muslims, and/or funding for jihad]." The first part of this condition is the Shahada, or profession of faith in Islam that a non-Muslim must say in converting to Islam. Furthermore, it is clear that violence is sanctioned until the victims embrace Muhammad's religion. Mohammad was not addressing "the fringe." He was establishing the overriding dictum for all Muslims to follow.
Change Required
It is small wonder why the Obama Regime's National Security Policy is in total disarray. The assumptions undergirding it have no relationships with reality. Were the Obama regime to change its assumptions, how could it recast the National Security Policy?
First, it is necessary to recognize that Iraq is already lost influence-wise to Iran. When Obama pulled U.S. troops out in 2011, Iran moved in and we will never again have the influence in Iraq that we had in 2011 (such as it was). That fact is not going to change as long as the Khomeinist-Shia mullah government rules Tehran, and Baghdad and Damascus by proxy. Therefore, we should not live in a fantasyland that "2011 Iraq" can or even should be recreated.
The purpose of President Bush's war to democratize and nation-build an American ally in the middle of "Jihadistan" was very misguided, but the limited, tenuous ascendancy over the various Islamic forces in Iraq he gained with "the surge" and "Anbar Awakening" was lost when Obama forfeited Iraq to Iran by complete withdrawal of US forces, absolutely removing our political influence/power in Iraq. In Jihadistan, only force commands political power/influence.
Obama is truly a fool not to understand that fact of life in dealing with international affairs. Mao's dictum that "political power grows out of the barrel of a gun" applies in day-to-day politics throughout the world with the current exceptions of the U.S., Western & parts of Central Europe, Australia, and Japan (and some other isolated polities around the world)! Any fool who denies the veracity of the Maoist political power dictum has no business being in charge of the fate of this nation! The Obama-variety utopian foolishness has prevailed in various forms in Democrat Party foreign policy since the McGovernites captured the Democrat Party in 1972.
A policy that would be in accord with reality would be to withdraw everything but U.S. diplomatic presence, along with the military force to protect it and to evacuate it, from Iraq. Let the Iranians have the lead in fighting the Islamic State, just as the Iranian mullahs have demanded. When the U.S. attacks the Islamic State, it is foolishly entering into the Salafist-Sunni/ Khomeinist-Shia religious-sectarian war. Taking military actions that would benefit Iran by removing the threat of the Islamic State from them makes no sense from the standpoint of U.S. national interests.
Another factor to consider in recasting policy is that the Islamic State is an existential threat to the House of Saud, which it wants to overthrow and replace as the true Salafist guardians of Mecca and Medina. The Islamic State's physical presence on the borders of Iran and Saudi Arabia poses an existential threat to both regimes. If we remove ourselves as a buffer, they will both be forced to contend with the Islamic State for their own national security reasons.
We should encourage our three enemies — Iran/Islamic State/House of Saud (make no mistake, the Saudis are our covert Wahabbi enemies funding jihadist mosques throughout the world) — to war against each other and expend their resources in the fight. All three are more immediate threats to each other than the Islamic State is to us because of physical proximity. The three cannot coexist bordering each other, and they will have to deal with their immediate enemies before they can effectively concentrate jihad against us.
Once the latest Sunni-Shia battle reaches its conclusion, we should be mentally and physically prepared to fight and destroy the winner, when they emerge as a credible threat, which they will. In the meantime, we should invest in building Kurdistan into an independent, militarily capable separate nation-state that could be "our base of operations" for future activities in Jihadistan. Kurdistan could also serve as a safe-haven for Christians and other persecuted minorities that the Islamic State and the Khomeinist-Shiites target. Also, should the Sunni-Shia sectarian war force U.S. nationals to be evacuated from Iraq, Kurdistan could fulfill the role of first stage evacuation destination and way-station.
The Central Principle Guiding All Policy Changes
We have no "friends" in Syria, Iraq, or Jihadistan in general with the exception of the Israelis and Kurds. The current fighting in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon is a Salafist-Sunni/ Khomeinist-Shia religious-sectarian war — we don't win regardless which sect prevails. So, we should stay out of it. Our immediate national counter-jihad priorities regarding the Islamic State, Iran, and the entire Jihadistan should be:
- Aiding our Israeli-Kurdish allies protect themselves
- Providing humanitarian assistance/protection to religious and racial minorities persecuted by the Salafist-Sunni and Khomeinist-Shia jihadists
- Preparing to counter either Salafist-Sunni or Khomeinist-Shia jihadists when they expand their operations beyond Jihadistan into Europe and the U.S.
- Closing our borders and improving our visa/immigration administration, while cancelling further Muslim immigration into the U.S.
- Increasing our national efforts to become carbon energy independent
Aside, from the great power, geopolitical competition emanating from Russia and China, we must acknowledge that the current international disarray in the world stems from Islamic jihad. Whether the terror and death is committed by jihadist "lone wolves," the Islamic State, al-Qaeda, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, al-Qaeda in the Maghreb, al-Nusra, Muslim Brotherhood, al-Shabaab, Boko Haram, Taliban, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps, Hezbollah, or al-Quds Force, to name a few of the more well-known Islamic terror organizations, there is no denying that the genesis of the terror is the Quran, be it a Sunni or Shiite putting the Quranic murder mandates into practice. All U.S. National Security Policy decisions must be made with that undeniable fact as a primary consideration.

|Packers | GB struggled with physical play
Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:54:08 -0800
The Green Bay Packers were beaten by the Buffalo Bills in Week 15, and the Bills excelled by playing physical with the Packers receivers and disrupting the routes of WRs Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and Davante Adams. The Bills had just one sack on Packers QB Aaron Rodgers and three hits, but the lack of blitzing allowed Buffalo's corners to play more aggressively on the outside. "They were physical outside with our receivers and were able to get away with it all day," Rodgers said. "We had some chances, missed on them."
Fantasy Tip: Rodgers' dud likely cost many a chance at a fantasyfootball title. If you're playing at FantasyScore, though, he has an excellent chance to bounce back and get you a win in Week 16 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and their poor defense.

|Packers | Limited status for Davante Adams
Fri, 28 Nov 2014 11:47:35 -0800
Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams (heel) is listed as probable for Week 13 against the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Tip: The Patriots' secondary has really been nasty in recent weeks, able to shut down opposing wide receivers with Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner. Expect New England to exhaust most of their attention on Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, though, which could make Adams ($3,300) a nice sleeper play at FantasyScore.

|Packers | Davante Adams limited
Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:48:45 -0800
Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams (heel) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Nov. 27.
Fantasy Tip: Adams ($3,300, 6.6% of cap) has just four catches on eight targets over the last three games. However, he could be a nice source of cap relief in FantasyScore contests. Plenty of offense is expected in the game between Green Bay and the New England Patriots.

|Packers | Davante Adams finding his role
Sat, 25 Oct 2014 20:11:15 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams has two touchdowns in his last three games, and he has been targeted 13 times during the span.
Fantasy Tip: Adams has established himself as the team's No. 3 receiver, and he seems to be earning more looks from Aaron Rodgers. With the Packers set to face the porous secondary of the New Orleans Saints in Week 8, Adams (7% of the cap, $3,500) is worth a look as a high-upside sleeper.

|Packers | Davante Adams drawing praise
Wed, 08 Oct 2014 20:30:11 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams continues to get snaps ahead of WRs Kevin Dorsey and Jeff Janis. He has stepped into the No. 3 receiver role with WR Jarrett Boykin (groin) sidelined, and QB Aaron Rodgers hinted Wednesday, Oct. 8, that there is more to come. "Davante, he's open on film a lot," Rodgers said. "He's run a lot of good routes. He had only one catch last week, but if he stays confident and keeps making plays like he's doing in practice, the ball is going to keep coming his way."
Fantasy Tip: Adams hasn't quite emerged as a fantasy option, but he is worth stashing in deeper leagues if you have the roster flexibility.

|Packers | Davante Adams grabs first TD
Thu, 02 Oct 2014 20:35:56 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams caught the first touchdown pass of his career in the team's Week 5 game Thursday, Oct. 2. The 11-yard score was his only catch of the game.
Fantasy Tip: Adams' role within the offense should increase as the year goes on, but in the meantime, the rookie probably won't receive enough looks to be worth gambling on at FantasyScore.

|Packers | Jarrett Boykin inactive
Sun, 28 Sep 2014 08:36:24 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Jarrett Boykin is inactive for the Week 4 game Sunday, Sept. 28.
Fantasy Tip: Davante Adams ($3,900; 7.8% of the cap) is a good bargain bin flex option this week.

|Packers | Jarrett Boykin struggling
Mon, 22 Sep 2014 08:39:48 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Jarrett Boykin dropped two catchable throws Sunday, Sept. 21, and QB Aaron Rodgers' confidence in him may be waning.
Fantasy Tip: Davante Adams has seven catches for 61 yards in the last two weeks, and he could overtake Boykin for the slot receiver role. Boykin has little fantasy value right now, but Adams could elevate himself into the waiver wire target list. Adams could be a cheap flex option on FantasyScore in the interim.

|Packers | Jarrett Boykin emerging
Thu, 28 Aug 2014 07:35:24 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Jarrett Boykin has taken the next step, according to head coach Mike McCarthy. "He's physical, his toughness, he's relentless," McCarthy said. "I think he's exceptional at the top of his route. You see his strength and balance to separate from a DB." Boykin's hold on the No. 3 receiver spot will likely limit WR Davante Adams as the fourth receiver.
Fantasy Tip: Boykin is worth a flier as a WR5 and is worth playing as a flex in good matchups.

|Packers | Davante Adams working to gain trust
Tue, 19 Aug 2014 20:15:11 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams said he is working to gain the trust of QB Aaron Rodgers. "Just making sure that it becomes second nature," Adams said about what he needs to work on most. "Everything out there is just flowing and I don't have to worry about thinking too much and I can just play."
Fantasy Tip: Green Bay's offense is certainly capable of supporting three fantasy-worthy options at receiver, but Adams isn't a lock to overtake Jarrett Boykin for the team's No. 3 receiver job by Week 1. For now, Adams isn't worth drafting, but he is worth keeping an eye on to see how his role progresses during the year.

Natural resources are the foundation for our lives and lifestyles.
What would our lives be like without mining? Imagine a world without transportation such as jet planes or railroads, without communications such as cell phones or radar, without decorative items such as art or jewelry, without buildings such as skyscrapers or parking garages, without defense systems items such as missiles or submarines, without medical care items such as X-rays or surgical tools. We wouldn't have any of these things without mining and minerals.
Kyanite and its related mineral "cousins," sillimanite and andalusite, are called polymorphs. This means that they are three distinct minerals, but they all have the same chemical formula, Al2SiO5 (aluminum silicate). Because they are chemically the same, they can all be used in the same applications.
All three form in metamorphic rocks (rocks that are changed by intense heat and pressure), specifically in schists and gneisses that were formed out of sedimentary rocks with a high clay content. Studies have shown that each mineral forms under very specific temperature/pressure (T/P) conditions. Relative to one another, kyanite forms in a lower temperature/higher pressure environment; andalusite forms in a lower temperature/lower pressure environment, and sillimanite forms in a higher temperature/higher pressure environment.
Kyanite forms bladed crystals. It is generally blue, but can also be green or gray. It has a glassy luster. Kyanite has a unique physical feature in that it has two different hardnesses. When its hardness is measured across the crystal, it is 7; when it is measured down the length of the crystal, it is 5. All other minerals have a single hardness no matter where it is measured on the crystal.
Kyanite is the variant spelling of the original name of this mineral, cyanite. The name was derived from the Greek word kyanos meaning blue in reference to this mineral's most common color. The name was given by Abraham Gottlob Werner in 1789.
Sillimanite was named in honor of Professor Benjamin Silliman (1779-1864) who was the first professor of mineralogy at Yale University (as well as professor of chemistry for a time). The name was given by G.T. Bowen in 1824.
Andalusite was named after Andalusia, a province in southern Spain, where this mineral is found. The name was given by Jean Claude Delametherie in 1798.
Sources:There are substantial deposits of kyanite in the United States. The most important deposits are in Idaho and the Appalachian Mountain region in Eastern United States. Gneisses in Southern California also have significant kyanite resources. Presently, however, it is not economical to mine these deposits. Should economic conditions change, these deposits may be worth mining. South Africa supplies most of the andalusite imported for industrial consumption in the United States. France and India also produce andalusite and kyanite, respectively.
Kyanite and its related minerals are used to make a variety of refractory materials. Refractory materials are those that are resistant to very high temperatures. As a result, more than half of the kyanite consumed is used in refractories for the production of steel. Kyanite is also used to produce refractories for nonferrous (non-iron-bearing) metals. Some is consumed to make refractories for glass and heat-resistant ceramics. Kyanite is also used to make spark plugs and is used for non-refractory applications.
Substitutes and Alternative Sources:
For refractory purposes, high-alumina materials, fire clays, and a product called synthetic mullite (produced in the United States and elsewhere), can be used in place of kyanite and its related minerals. Synthetic mullite is made from bauxite (aluminum ore), clays, and silica (quartz) sand.

WMG exhibits art made by and about women, educates the public about women's art, and advocates for the equal treatment and recognition of women's artistic accomplishments. WMG provides a multifaceted space for women artists. These women are not less advantaged in terms of their talent; they remain, however, disadvantaged in their access to exhibit their work in a professional, high-quality, committed space that provides the safety of artistic expression and recognizes the value of traditionally devalued art. Our exhibit topics have ranged in themes from domestic violence and religious freedom to stylistic themes such as the still life and surrealism.
Woman Made Gallery had its first juried art exhibit in July 1992 titled "Women Do Women". Nineteen artists depicted images and iconography of all things female. Since then the gallery hosts on the average eight group exhibitions per year with approximately 30 artists per show and a wide variety of themes. WMG has shown the work of more than 6500 women artists since 1992.
Current & Upcoming Exhibitions
The following is a list, along with a brief description, of juried group shows that are currently on display, or those that we will be hosting in the coming months.
If you are interested in submitting your artwork for any of these exhibitions, you may download an entry form by clicking on the PDF icon below each exhibition. The entry form in PDF format is on two pages and can only be opened if you have Adobe Acrobat Reader. The Adobe Acrobat Reader is available for FREE from their web site. Click here if you want to download Adobe Acrobat Reader now. If you are unable to do so, you may use our Generic Entry Form and fill in the name of the WMG exhibition you are entering. Women artists may enter work online with digital files instead of slides, and all information about that is here: Entry Forms. By submitting their work to exhibitions, all artists agree to allow reproduction of their slides, photographs and/or digital files taken of their art for educational, publicity, and archival purposes.
