Stock Futures Dip After Tepid Jobs, GDP Data
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- U.S. stock futures were falling further after initial jobless claims missed expectations amid losses in European markets.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average were down 44 points, or 48 points below fair value, at 13,009. Futures for the S&P 500 were down 5.6 points, or 5.8 points below fair value, at 1395. Futures for the Nasdaq were down 10 points, or 8.4 points below fair value, at 2758.
The Department of Labor reported that weekly jobless claims in the week ended March 24 fell by 5,000 to 359,000 from the prior week's revised level of 364,000. The latest update was slightly disappointing because economists were expecting 350,000 claims, according to Thomson Reuters, after an original reading of 348,000 in the week before.
A report on economic growth, however, came in line with expectations. The government's third read on GDP growth in the fourth quarter of 2011 remained the same as its previous read of a 3% growth pace. This is up from 1.8% annualized growth rate in the third quarter, although still worrisome given that growth is expected to pull back going into the first quarter of 2012.European stocks were falling after the European Commission said an index of executive and consumer sentiment fell to a reading of 94.4 in March from a revised 94.5 in February. With Greece's troubles largely falling out of the spotlight, investors have been keeping an eye on deficit problems in Portugal and Spain, were sovereign debt yields have climbed recently. On Friday, European governments meet in Copenhagen where they will aim to increase the rescue firewall in the region. German Chancellor Angela Merkel is expected to allow the increase. The European Commission also said an index of executive and consumer sentiment fell to a reading of 94.4 in March from a revised 94.5 in February. Germany's DAX was down 1.3% while London's FTSE was down 0.7%. The Hong Kong Hang Seng closed down 1.32% while the Nikkei Average in Japan finished lower by 0.67% overnight.

Ann, I wasn't sure if this could go in here or should be in the games folder but it's not really a game... anyway... here's my question for you all.........
I read that Toby McGuire will not be Spiderman in the
|Sat, 01-16-2010 - 12:14pm
I can't believe it's not going to be Tobey Maguire anymore, and I hear that Sam Raimi is out as director too. (another mistake, in my opinion) I read that there is concern because "Tobey Maguire is turning 35 this year." He sure LOOKS younger than that though! I think Rob Pattinson is not a good choice...
|Sat, 01-16-2010 - 10:14am
He was in Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull and Transformers, so he can do action, and he was pretty nerdy and action-y

Pre-order Borderlands 2 for the Creature Slaughter Dome
There sure is a lot going on with pre-order bonuses for Borderlands 2. GameStop has the exclusive on an arena called the "Creature Slaughter Dome," which I must say is an accurate name.
There doesn't seem to be much to it other than shooting the various creatures that inhabit Pandora, though you are able to bring experience and loot, including Moxxi's Rocket Launcher, back into the core game. So, unless you are a completionist, I wouldn't worry about needing this content.
You know what would have been even better for the game to include? A pleasure dome.

Escape to the oasis of Island Vanilla! A blissful blend of rich organic vanilla and natural sweetness is baked into our bite-sized, woven wheat biscuits for a naturally satisfying get-away.
Diets rich in whole grain foods and other plant foods and low in total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol may help reduce the risk of heart disease and certain cancers.
Our Commitment
Kashi friends, Since 1984, Kashi has cared about making foods with the health of people and planet in mind. We've stayed true to our seven whole grain roots and remain passionate about providing a progressive and holistic approach to nutrition.
Now we're taking our mission a step further. Today, only 1% of U.S. cropland is organic and around 70% of packaged foods contain GMOs (genetically modified organisms). At Kashi, we want to do our part in creating a more balanced food system. We're still smart at heart, but big enough now to make a meaningful impact.
Our commitment: By the end of 2015 over half our food will be Non-GMO Project Verified.*
But we won't stop there. We'll continue to increase the use of organic and non-GMO ingredients where possible while making sure to continue to provide the positive nutrition you expect from us.
Why 2015? There simply aren't enough non-GMO and organic ingredients, and it takes time to partner with farmers to convert conventional farms. Once we obtain these ingredients, we need to make sure the nutrition and taste of the food are consistent with the high quality you expect from us.
Best of Health!
The Kashi Family
Island Vanilla
Discover: Vanilla Bean
Grown in the hot, humid climates of the Tropics and Mesoamerica, vanilla pods are the only edible fruit of the orchid flower. For centuries, farmers have pollinated the dedicated white flowers by hand to produce the cherished vanilla bean. After nine months, the green vanilla beans turn dark yellow, signaling the growers to harvest. Once they are heat-cured, vanilla beans blacken and reveal their distinct flavor and aroma.
Organic Promise
You can put your faith in the quality and purity of Kashi Island Vanilla Certified Organic cereal, because our growers follow farming methods that restore, maintain and enhance ecological harmony. They also avoid the use of prohibited conventional synthetic pesticides and genetic modification. That's our promise to you.

Vicki Smith's dream space included a walk-in closet, second-floor library and wooden floors made of toothpicks. Randy Yohre's dream space was a little simpler — all he needed was a bed, a bathroom and an Xbox 360.
The Scottsdale teens have been designing their own living spaces at this year's Summer Architecture Camp at Taliesin West, the Frank Lloyd Wright school of architecture in north Scottsdale.
The classes take a different spin on summer camp. Instead of kickball and marshmallow roasts, the students take on drafting, building, drawing and designing.
Vicki Smith, 14, said most of her friends were staying home this summer while she created a stained glass window shaped like a polar bear.
"I like working with my hands and building things," Smith said.
The architecture courses for kids were started in 1990 by Shawn Rorke-Davis, who spent most of her childhood on the Frank Lloyd Wright campus. Her father worked as the physician for the faculty and fellows, so she was surrounded by Wright's ideas.
After receiving degrees in psychology and sociology, Rorke-Davis returned to the school to teach. Now she conducts classes for children in the summer, and travels around to Valley schools to instruct teachers in how to incorporate architecture into their lessons.
"Architecture is critical to other disciplines — science, geometry, math, art — you have to write about it, you have to speak about it," she said. "In real life, you use those skills all the time."
During the classes in Scottsdale, Rorke-Davis challenges the students to design their dream homes in small spaces, like oneor two-bedroom homes.
"They're used to four-bedroom, three bathroom houses with a great room," she said. "One kid asked, 'Where is the cook going to sleep?' "
Over the years, the students have designed homes under water, floating on clouds and on fictional planets, she said.
The students don't use computers; they have to measure and calculate the square footage of their creations by hand. They also build 3-D models, which also have to be to scale.
"They're also surprised to learn how much they know about themselves," Rorke-Davis said. "They're looking at themselves from a different viewpoint."
The classes continue until Aug. 4. Each session is limited to 20 students. Prices range from $145 to $295. Information is available at www.franklloydwright.org.

Under-fire Uttoxeter pub improves after cop licensing scare
Posted: May 15, 2014|
A UTTOXETER pub slammed by police for allowing underage sales, fights and drug use is cleaning up its act.
Staffordshire Police's Sgt Tracey Carsley last month called for borough bosses to review the Church Street pub's licence.
She wrote to East Staffordshire Borough Council after two 17-year-old girls were served by licensee Susan Turner in December.
Sgt Carsley said: "The review process can be used to deter any sales of alcohol to children, giving serious consideration to the revocation of the licence."
When police visited Mrs Turner to interview her about the sales, it was the 15th time they had been called out to the pub since December 2012.
In April, Anthony Swinson, 24, of Didcot Drive, Marchington, was jailed for a brutal glass attack at the Steeplechase.
On five occasions, heavily-intoxicated revellers at the watering hole were arrested or asked to leave the town centre.
Three punters were dealt with for anti-social behaviour linked with drink or drugs and another was found in possession of drugs bought at the establishment.
Trading Standards threw its weight behind Sgt Carsley's request, agreeing the pub needed to 'do more to protect children from harm'.
However, licensing chiefs decided landlord Admiral Taverns and licensees Mrs Turner and husband Chris were taking positive steps to tackle their pub's problems.
A borough licensing spokesman said: "The committee were pleased to note that training had been provided to all staff, UV lights and CCTV, cameras had been installed to deter drug taking, infra-red CCTV was in place at the venue and CCTV was in place in the pub's car park.
"The committee had been told that Mr and Mrs Turner employed door staff on Saturdays and on other occasions when customer levels demand that door staff should be in place."
"The chairman sounded a word of caution that, should there be problems in the future, Staffordshire Police would make a fresh application for review and, in those circumstances, all options would be open to the committee, including revocation of the licence."
Mark Brown, company solicitor for Admiral Taverns, said: "We are satisfied with the outcome of the hearing and will continue to co-operate and work with Staffordshire Police to ensure licensing standards are met at the Steeplechase.
"We have full confidence in Chris and Susan, the licensees, who have worked tirelessly and invested heavily to make the Steeplechase a pub for the whole community and who have fostered a very positive working relationship with the relevant authorities at a local level."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A proposal to ban most mountaintop removal mining in Tennessee is on hold following an attorney general's opinion that federal laws govern the practice.
Sen. Raymond Finney, a Maryville Republican, says he is in discussions with the coal industry and other interested parties about whether he can find some middle ground on his proposal.
Finney's bill would ban surface mining at elevations about 2,000 feet.
Tennessee ran its own federally approved surface mining program in the early 1980s, but relinquished that regulatory authority back to the federal government in 1984.
Lawmakers in neighboring Kentucky earlier this week rejected a proposal that could have stopped mining companies from blasting off mountaintops to expose coal deposits.

How SpaceX saved the Dragon capsule from destruction
On March 1, SpaceX ran a test launch of Dragon, the capsule in which it hopes to someday transport human beings into space. Dragon was due to connect with the International Space Station, but very quickly into the launch things started to go all wrong. This is a short summary of the SpaceX team managed to stop their capsule from tumbling out of control.
Here is a giant snow blower
Just look at it.

The artist has interspersed 3 cartouches between the two thin gold bands. He has painted delicate pink and red roses surrounded teal green leaves inside of the cartouches with gold leaves and vines accent each side. There are no chips or cracks; manufacturing anomalies do exist, the occasional tiny iron speck, dust 'bump' in the glaze, etc.

The a/c refrigerant is filled through the low side, use that fitting.
Answer #2peter92211 April 07, 2013, 09:51Rookie
Refrigerant will only fix your problem for a short time. Chances are your compressor has a leak and needs replacement, if you are putting refrigerant in at least add a die which will show you where it is leaking out ..you might be lucky and find it is a joint, I wouldn't put money on it..

In a phone conversation today, Dave and I discussed the Virtual Ballroom, which hasn't been seen for several months now. I'm sure you have missed it. Some have made comments about its whereabouts. You know these virtual ballrooms – they have a mind of their own and can go off on little adventures without any of the rest of us being any wiser.
But I chanced to catch it on one of its whirl-by blitzes. I slowed it down a bit and spent a rainy afternoon creating the Virtual Bliss Room in the ballroom – over there behind the fire-engine-red bar. It's the doorway with all the sparkly lights seemingly floating in and out of the door edges. Those lights are made of magic. They know the passenger walking within. They recognize you as their most favorite person in the whole world. As you enter the doorway, they envelope you in a holy warmth that fills you with peace, happiness, contentment.
Once you enter, you are beckoned to a huge overstuffed recliner that hugs you and embraces you, carrying over that spirit-like warmth from the doorway lights.
If you are tired; you feel refreshed and renewed
If you are sad; you feel like you had a really good cry
If you are anxious; you feel relaxed and soothed
If you feel achy all over; you feel like you just had the best massage you ever had
The chair, the lights, the room itself flow over you, replenishing you, revitalizing you, caring for you, understanding you.
You now have experienced Virtual Bliss. Meaning you effectively have reached the pinnacle of harmony and happiness.
Enjoy your mini-spa.
Good morning, Netizens…
Why am I not surprised?
Deputy Brian Hirzel acted in a reasonable manner when he shot a 74 year-old pastor in Spokane Valley last summer two different departmental reviews have stated.
"Deputy Brian Hirzel's use of force in this incident was reasonable based on policies of the Spokane County Sheriff's Office," the department said, citing its Deadly Force Review Board's conclusions, quoting the Thomas Clouse piece in the Spokesman-Review this morning.
Spokane County Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich also had his department's 12-member Citizen Advisory Board review the Aug. 25 shooting of pastor Wayne Scott Creach. That board essentially came to the same conclusion, according to Sgt. Dave Reagan, the department's spokesman.
Pastor Wayne Scott Creach was shot in the parking lot of his business, and according to his son, Alan Creach, the reports simply are not enough.
"I just think this is one more instance of a government that has gone awry through their willingness to overlook an action that is unjustifiable," Creach said. "If we let this event stand, then the beating and the killing will continue."
This entire affair, start to finish, was a horrible fiasco; a tragedy of unspeakable sadness, and I believe many of the departmental policies and procedures it has revealed need to be remedied. Communications between law enforcement and its citizenry desperately cry out for improvement. The question that remains in my mind is, who is listening?
Good morning, Netizens…
Few of you may remember the late Reverend David Wilkerson, an Assembly of God minister and founder of World Challenge Ministries, who was killed Wednesday in a car accident in East Texas. Perhaps he was best known for having written The Cross and the Switchblade, a book that told the story of how Wilkerson left his small rural Assembly of God Church and went to New York to minister to gang members.
Now, these many years later, having written more than 30 other books and having established ministries, including Teen Challenge, which has continued to minister to street gang members in New York and other cities, Reverend Wilkerson was a respected and revered spokesperson for the Assembly of God.
He ostensibly was killed in a head-on car crash sources are reporting that Wilkerson was killed in a head-on collision with a tractor trailer while traveling east on U.S. 175. His wife, Gwen, was also involved in the accident and reportedly remains in critical condition at East Texas Medical Center in Tyler, Texas.
Rest in Peace…
Good morning, Netizens…
Late yesterday and throughout the night last night, parts of Alabama and Mississippi were decimated by a series of violent tornadoes that ranged from an estimated F4 or F5 on the Fujita Scale that hit Tuscaloosa, Huntsville and Birmingham, such as this photo of the tornado that flattened portions of Tuscaloosa late in the day yesterday. This area of the United States is no stranger to tornadoes and severe thunderstorms, but never so many and of such severity in such a short period of time.
A huge storm front, ranging across four states, killed a still-unknown number of people and injuring hundreds of others. It flattened not only homes in its path, it flattened businesses throughout much of the Huntsville area, leaving emergency services and medical service providers ill-equipped to cope with the trees across streets, people trapped in houses and businesses and other injuries.
It is not quite turning daylight now, and with the new day, it is expected the number of dead and injured will rise.
Unfortunately, there is still a forecast model that suggests the severe weather will persist for portions of today.
Good morning, Netizens…
Occasionally Spokesman-Review writer Jonathan Brunt hits a news story dead on, and in this morning's paper, his coverage of last night's City Council meeting just about got the job done. The Red Light scenario, of putting red light cameras on as many intersections as possible, has both its proponents and its detractors. What is unfortunate, however, is that the Spokesman was the only member of the news media to pay even a pittance of attention to last night's City Council meeting, and the resulting brouhaha between mouthpiece Council President Joe Shogun and George McGrath over new red light cameras.
What's at stake are red light cameras at four proposed new intersections, and statistics which George McGrath asserts the red light programs are actually cash cows, and that other cities involved in the program have pulled out for a variety of reasons. Sergeant Joe immediately called a recess to the meeting and returned armed with police statistics which he insists show otherwise.
"You're frickin' wrong," Shogan told McGrath after presenting the police statistics.
Wait a minute here. Who, besides a few members of the City Council and various heads of state in the Spokane Police Department actually trusts Spokane police statistics?
Suffice it to say that I doubt if venerable George McGrath, who seems to have this fetish to attend most City Council meetings where he keeps a sharp eye on proceedings, not to mention any expenses which strike his attention, trusts any statistics from City Hall, let alone the Police Department.
Kudos to Mr. Brunt for covering a story which apparently no one else in the Spokane news media either wanted to cover or felt worthwhile.
Good morning, Netizens…

Good afternoon, Netizens…
Here we have the Unofficial Earth Day flag, by John McConnell: the blue marble on a blue background. It has come to represent Earth Day, which has been observed since April 22, 1970 and is now observed on April 22 each year by more than 500 million people and several national governments in 175 countries. It is coordinated by the nonprofit Earth Day Network, according to whom Earth Day is now "the largest secular holiday in the world, celebrated by more than a half billion people every year".
I have a problem with Earth Day. If so many people in the United States are so enamored of saving Mother Earth, why is it they continue to re-elect politicians who clearly have a conflict of interest with Green awareness and/or become lobbyists for major corporations that pollute our air and water?
I find myself astounded beyond words at the number of lobbyists for corporations who mouth the phrases of Earth Day while still polluting madly away.
Good morning, Netizens…
Donald Trump as a Republican candidate for President? Say, come to think of it, Trump might trump all the other Republican candidates who are running for office. He's not a repeat candidate from 2008, like Huckabee and Romney. He's not a plodding doofus with low name recognition, like Pawlenty and Daniels. But most of all, he's a source of even more outrageous fun and constant source of gaffes than Palin or Bachmann. The best part is he doesn't hide from hostile interviewers and predictably opens his mouth to say whatever strikes his mind, without regard for its political correctness or disinformation.
After all, he has this certain panache, ignoring the number of bankruptcies associated with his successes. He has been married to some of the most utterly garishly beautiful women in the world, and divorced them in spectacular fashion.
He's already done a quick flip-flops on abortion to satisfy the Religious Right Wing, and has stated he regularly attends church on Christmas and Easter. He changed his whistle from praise for President Obama to exaggerated claims that Obama was borne in Kenya.
Can you imagine Trump moving into the White House? That idea strikes me as twisted as his hairdo, but then I am somewhat astounded at the number of Republicans who have suddenly begun warming to the idea despite the number of Trump's ex-wives.
Suddenly I have a vision of Trump with his latest trophy-class wife moving into the White House, with the coalition of those Republicans who voted him into office, and their first move would be to redecorate it in garish casino gold with gambling tables installed in the Press Room to better satiate members of the press anxiously awaiting his next press statement.
Oh, Lordy, we could have lots of fun watching the next Republican Presidential candidate election.
Good morning, Netizens…
This is Disaster Preparedness Month. In keeping with Governor Christine Gregoire's request for a statewide earthquake drill at 9:45 AM Wednesday morning, promptly on time I crawled beneath my desk, covering my head with one hand, and held onto the desk leg with the other. To be honest, for the requisite two minutes I felt more like a complete fool than I did a responsible, prepared citizen. I had visions of Governor Gregoire crawling beneath her desk for two minutes, ignoring the telephones ringing and people queued up outside her office waiting for various meetings. Even worse, can you imagine Chief Kirkpatrick or Mayor Verner crawling beneath their desks to duck and cover?
Several members of my family resided for years in tornado alley, and are quite familiar with the "duck and cover" drills which are still taught in the public schools during the spring and fall months of the year in the Mid and South West. When the tornado alarm blew, you dove beneath the nearest desk and covered your head until the "all clear" alarm was sounded. This same exercise was originally popularized as part of Civil Defense back in the 60's and 70's but in modern-day Spokane I do not know if any of the civil defense sirens still work.
Is Spokane prepared for a disaster of epic proportions? What would happen if we lost our telephones, Internet access and television in one simultaneous event? Where would we go, what would we do and in what order?
Sure! We would crawl beneath our desks, cover our heads with one hand and hang on for dear life. Of course you opinion of this may differ.
Good evening, Netizens…
I think I might have an issue, our dysfunctional congress, where cartoonist David Horsey and most of the people reading it may agree.
Granted, I do not know for a fact that the event as depicted by Horsey actually ever occurred, but I do believe if it ever did, someone would be almost certain to threaten a filibuster to prevent such a bill from being introduced. After all, you have members of Congress who teeter to both the left and right; some even further than that. Do you think for a moment you could get them all to agree on a single issue?
Personally, between the Tea Party, the Conservative Right Wing Republicans, the Conservative Liberals and the leftist Liberals, I am surprised they are able to agree often enough to pass any legislation. Of course, my favorite axiom when it comes to members of Congress is, "we have the best possible Congress that money can buy."
Of course, your thoughts on this may differ.
Good morning, Netizens…
Living in the Pacific Northwest, there are many who wonder at people who, after loading down their vehicles with an imponderable stack of highly-technical equipment, and taking their lives in their hands, go chasing severe storms in other areas of the country. A classic example of a reason why people do such things just struck in parts of North Carolina and other parts of the South where a record-setting number of tornadoes touched down over the weekend.
There was a time, years ago, when I regularly chased tornadoes. It was before the full development of NEXRAD Radar, when storm chasers didn't have hardly any of the modern-day gadgets that modern-day meteorologists routinely possess. We studied the clouds, and when the circumstances were right, we called local authorities notifying them of a potential tornado touchdown; it wasn't perfect but it was what we had. Even today, given the arsenals of electronics and meteorological software storm chasers sometimes miss storms that later generate tornadoes. In some instances storm chasers cause the sirens to blow but no funnel clouds ever form. It is an imperfect science to some degree.
In Sanford, North Carolina, a representative for a flattened Lowe's Hardware store admitted to various members of news agencies that they had heard the sirens blowing in the distance, notifying anyone within its range to take cover immediately and yet it wasn't until customers physically saw the tornado looming across the street before anyone took action. Fortunately, the Lowes store in question had a disaster plan and followed it. Despite the store being more or less flattened around them, no one inside the store was killed.
All the storm chasers in the world would not have made much difference to the folks in the store.
According to several severe weather warning centers, there were at least four storm chasers who had been following the progress of the particular storm front which spawned so many tornadoes in such a short period of time. In fact there were at least two different videos of the storm as it developed, each shot by storm chasers. Still, in other areas, people died, some of whom had no warning at all of impending severe weather.
There is obviously a great deal more education, awareness and advance notification that needs to be done before tornado warning system will work 100% of the time.
Good morning, Netizens…
The headline in this David Horsey cartoon reads, "Americans keep Confederates in the attic, Slaves in the cellar," but unfortunately, the picture depicts the American family in the attic, yet the younger generation has uncovered the desiccated skeleton of a slave in the attic, not in the cellar, as the cartoon suggests. It really doesn't make any difference where we collectively uncover the skeletons of former slaves, be they in the attic or the cellar of our consciousness.
On April 12th, re-enactors dressed in Confederate gray fired cannons toward old Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor to mark 150 years since the attack that started America's hideous war over slavery.
Four years of Civil War commemorations will now ensue and we shall see if, during the coming months, Americans, North and South (and West) can finally accept the central truth about why our bloodiest war was fought: Our country was built upon and prospered from a racist socio-economic system that could not be eradicated without blood and steel, death and destruction on an unprecedented scale.
The only substantial dispute; not states rights, not a cultural clash, not tariffs or big government — it was slavery that caused the Civil War. The Confederacy was formed to perpetuate a racist social structure more entrenched than the apartheid system in South Africa. After the war ended, Southerners did all they could to retain most aspects of that structure for another 100 years, confirming with their deeds that racial supremacy had been the impulse that brought us secession, and all the race hatred that has come to imply over the decades.
In my youth, I can remember driving long haul trucks through the Deep South and seeing, first-hand, the remaining impacts of the Civil War and later on, the continuous festering of racial strife. There were certain truck stops which, for whatever reason, catered exclusively to black truck drivers who otherwise could not eat in certain all-white restaurants; there were many truck stops that proudly flew the Confederate flags atop their flag poles out front as a warning and guideline. I never was refused service at any of the all-black truck stops, but I heard of black truckers who were discouraged from asking for service at some proudly-Confederate-leaning truck stops and I was young and naive enough to eventually make up my own mind where I would stop.
I am too old now to drive those byways and highways I once traveled. However, I still can recall vague memories of ancient and delicate places in my heart, where I often as not would find a different view of the battle of racial strife in America. Sometimes, particularly in the early morning, when I once was anxious to be off and on my way after a hearty breakfast and bottomless pots of coffee, often as not served by women of color, I still wonder if those places exist on some intercultural road map today.
Perhaps if those villainous Confederate flags no longer are flying above truck stops in the South, the Confederate War is truly over. Of course, your results may differ.
Good morning, Netizens…
According to cartoonist David Horsey, the art of hostage taking as taught by Republican U.S. House Speaker John Boehner is a good study in brinksmanship, in my opinion. Given the amount of hyperbole and grandstanding involved over the previous weeks, it would appear that David Horsey's cartoon may have hit the nail on the head; the Republican strategy appears to have worked.
However, before anyone breathes heartfelt sighs of relief, after saving federal funding for Planned Parenthood I should hasten to point out we aren't through with the federal budget by a long shot. There are still lots of sacrificial lambs awaiting delivery to the altar politic before the ink is dry on the national budget, a fact I am certain Speaker Boehner is wisely keeping beneath his collar.
In case you are wondering, why was Planned Parenthood chosen to be Boehner's hostage? Just last Friday, for example, Republican Sen. John Kyl of Arizona fired the opening salvo on Planned Parenthood when he said on the Senate floor that "if you want an abortion you go to Planned Parenthood. And that's well over 90 percent of what Planned Parenthood does."
Get used to the deception. It just isn't so.
Despite the fact Kyl was eventually forced to rescind his statement, as despite Planned Parenthood being a truly big target to Conservative Republicans, over 90% of what Planned Parenthood does do is NOT abortions. So it stands to reason when Boehner was searching for a highly-visible hostage that he could broker into tax cuts, who else could he grab?
Once President Obama sensed that Boehner was willing to hold Planned Parenthood as his hostage, and that Republicans were, for the most part, behind the elimination of federal funding for Planned Parenthood, he had to acquiesce and cave in to the other demands to save us from government shutdown.
Of course, this is only my interpretation of the saving of our government, and perhaps your opinion(s) may differ.
Good evening, Netizens…
One of America's most-nauseously self-serving members of the right wing ideologues has left the television stations that launched him into American hearts and minds, and with his departure from Fox Television, Glenn Beck has closed the door on what I personally felt was as close as the John Birch Society ever came to syndication of their particular brand of fear-mongering hatred.
Simply because I believe, if one is going to complain bitterly about a person's politics, you should at least hear them out to see what they have to day, I listened to Beck on several occasions. I made it a special point to listen to his entire speech given on the anniversary of the Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech. That was a piece of claptrap ideology if there ever was such a thing, bordering on half-baked truths and artificiality. Unfortunately, after that appearance, there were repeated cries from the underground right for a Presidential ticket featuring Beck and Sarah Palin, cries which apparently have fallen by the wayside, one would hope.
I still recall when Sarah Palin, Keith Olbermann and Glenn Beck were the heads of the paranoid style of American politics, as all three were capable of inciting right wing extremist pseudo-intellectualism and fear-mongering on a national scale. What a difference a year makes! Keith Olbermann is now off the air, and Glenn Beck is now looking like he might follow in Olbermann's tracks. In the meantime, Sarah Palin's ratings are dropping like flies, despite her trips to several foreign countries to get some of that foreign knowledge and experience she so desperately needed before she opened her mouth.
It is a reaffirmation of the American people that they are instinctively distrustful of the political and ideological extremes of either left or right wing.
Perhaps that is why I am particularly amused at a pundit's assessment of the Republican Party's Presidential aspirations, featuring Newt Gingrich or Donald Trump as the Tea Party/Republican Party's efforts to win back the hearts and minds of the American voters. Ye Gods, what a combination those two would make!
Of course, your results may differ.
Good morning, Netizens…
The Department of Justice has informed the Seattle Police Department they are investigating whether Seattle officers have engaged in a pattern of unnecessary force and biased policing. Police Chief John Diaz (pictured) met with the Seattle Times Editorial Board Friday and informed them of the pending action, asserting that they have fully cooperated with the inquiry so far and will continue to do so.
Assistant U.S. Attorney General Thomas Perez, who oversees the DOJ's Civil Rights Division in Washington, D.C., announced the department-wide "patterns and practices" investigation in a conference call with U.S. Attorney Jenny Durkan, whose office's civil division will oversee it.
Both Perez and U.S. Attorney Jenny Durkan, whose office's civil division will oversee the investigation, stressed that the investigation is a civil, not a criminal matter.
Perez said, is to determine whether there are "systemic violations of the Constitution or federal law by officers of the SPD" and to correct them if they're found. Should problems be found during the investigation, the DOJ will work with the Seattle Police Department to fix them, stated Perez.
The DOJ also confirmed Thursday that they are investigating a separate criminal investigation into the August shooting death of First Nations woodcarver John T. Williams by a Seattle police officer. The officer, Ian Birk, resigned from the force after prosecutors said they could not build a case against him.
There are a remarkable number of parallels between the DOJ investigation of the Seattle Police Department and historical events involving the Spokane Police Department where some citizens assert Constitutional violations have taken place but, to date, no DOJ investigations have taken place in Spokane.
If interested parties persist in asking questions of the Spokane Police Department regarding any of these events where civil liberties have ostensibly been violated, generally speaking you are informed to "move on, nothing has happened here", and the matter is dropped. We apparently lack the clout necessary to invoke the U.S. Attorney's office.
Of course, your opinions may differ.

Movie trailer
GuinnessNJ 1 month ago reply report
This film flopped at the box office, but it's such a watchable movie. It's the type of movie you can watch over and over again and not get tired of it. The beginning is especially entertaining, but the momentum of this film carries through to the end. Some great characters, some great scenes and both dopilus and c-beams are correct in that this is a retelling of Beowulf via a novel by Michael Crichton.
If you haven't seen this film yet, give it a go. It may very well surprise you.

One of my favourite movies. The fact that there's a Spaniard playing an Arab sword fighting with Norsemen is in itself fun to watch, but the movie really holds my attention every time. I particularly dig the sound editing in this one.

For those of you who enjoy watching the "Vikings" series, here is an excellent norsemen movie to watch..you have your gore/blood/action/adventure all rolled into one ... not to mention you have Antonio Banderas in it!!

"Lo, there do I see my father ... 'Lo, there do I see my mother, and my sisters and my brothers ... Lo, there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning ....Lo, they do call to me ... They bid me take my place among them in the halls of Valhalla ... Where the brave ... May live...
... Forever" ... In AD 922, an important emissary who is banished from his homeland. The nomadic outcast comes across a band of Norse warriors who coerce him into joining them when they are summoned to fight mysterious creatures legendary for consuming every living thing in their path. Eventually surrounded by the frightening and ferocious foe, Ibn must conquer his personal fears and help battle the illusive invaders--who emerge out of the shroud of fog in the black of the night.
As I start to review the movies I own, I have to start with the 13th Warrior. This is just my kind of movie, pointless sword swinging with heads flying everywhere. Though the 13th Warrior is a been there done that action movie it nonetheless enjoyable to watch. The Viking backround was well created, without any real stars besides Antonio Bandaras the movie is not covered in poor accents and even poorer acting.
Far from a quality movie, with similar storyline to other's in it's genre, the 13th warrior still kept me on the edge of my seat with each action sequence. All in all if you enjoy swords in a mythical time with lots of bloodshed and pointless killing this could most definately be a movie for you.
I'm not an Antonio Banderas fan by any means, but he does a great job in parts and movies that are well written. Also I'm rather amused by the negative reviews I've seen that boil down to "I wanted more effects," or "I don't get it."
The 13th Warrior is a simple adventure movie. The more advanced cultures around the Mediterranean were coming into contact with the primitive tribes of Europe. And in Europe there were tribes even less advanced than the Vikings depicted in the 13th Warrior (i.e. the cannibals.) I found the differences in technology and customs very intriguing. Add to that the idea of one man's superstition being another man's religion, and you get a solid film that is more than just a time killer. When such movies are "wet" with effects, you often see characters that are one dimensional or plots that take the cheap way out of relying strictly on effects rather than the art of story telling. The 13th Warrior tells its story honestly.

How much is too much to pay for a basic college degree?
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 01-24-2012 - 2:39pm
Hi, I haven't been on this board in a while. I have two high school seniors, so you can probably understand why! Anyway, I would appreciate some feedback on a situation.
First of all, my daughter (and son as well) is going to inherit a large sum of money in September when she turns 18, which she knows will be her college fund. She is an excellent student and applied to three prestigious colleges. All of them accepted her and offered her nice scholarships.

she's young, she doesn't yet know herself and surely does not understand the value of money.

Not to muddy the waters, but I think it's equally important to consider the experience she will have at her college as it is to consider what the degree she earns there will gain her. I know college education is about prepping a person for his/her future, but that shouldn't be the only consideration.Not all of the schools that offer degrees in her field are going to be a good choice for her, although I don't believe there's any such thing as a perfect match.
Four years is a long time in the life of a teenager. I would want my DD to consider the classroom experience (class size, who is doing most of the teaching, labs, etc), the quality of dorm life, facilities and activities. This will be not only the place where she is educated, but it will also be her home for the time that she is there.
My daughter is a junior in HS, and she is fairly sure that she wants to go to

As for the money, it is out of my hands (her dad passed away and the money was his dad's, and the way things were set up, it goes straight to her when she turns 18). However, she will be starting college before she turns 18, so I plan on funding the first semester, startup costs, etc.

I don't think that all Bachelor's degrees are the same at all. That being said, the costs have to be weighed against your earnings and where you want to go to grad school. I will say that a business degree, so you can network, the more prestigious college may be worth it. If you are studying some thing that is a specialty at the college. Again it may be worth it. But, if you are studying something that is unlikely to land you into a high paying job, where you need to network or work with a leader in your field that happens to work in that college, then it probably is not worth it.

Trevor Roy Dunn (born January 30, 1968) is an American composer, bass guitarist and double bassist.
Dunn came to prominence in the 1990s with the experimental band Mr. Bungle. He has since worked in an array of musical styles, notably with singer and Mr. Bungle co-founder Mike Patton; with saxophonist/composer John Zorn; brief collaboration with Secret Chiefs 3 and with his own avant-garde jazz/rock ensamble Trevor Dunn's Trio-Convulsant and later with rock driven group MadLove. He is also a member of the band Tomahawk, replacing founding member Kevin Rutmanis.
After four years of studying the clarinet, Dunn began playing electric bass at the age of 13.[1] His earliest musical influences included the Beach Boys, Blondie, Cheap Trick, and Kiss.[2]
Dunn studied double bass and music in college.
In 1986, Dunn formed Mr. Bungle with vocalist Mike Patton and guitarist Trey Spruance. Mr. Bungle's early compositions mixed thrash metal, hard rock, death metal, ska and funk with an air of adolescent humor and vulgarity. With a background in metal, Dunn branched out his musical abilities playing jazz around San Francisco while immersing himself in different music.
Mr. Bungle released four demo tapes in the mid to late 1980s before being signed to Warner Bros. Records and releasing three full-length studio albums between 1991 and 1999. The band split in 2000.
Like the other members of Mr. Bungle, Trevor Dunn is reluctant to talk about what exactly caused their break-up (Dunn is especially hesitant about the subject). For that matter, Dunn is reluctant to talk about Mr. Bungle in general, though he claims to have enough material for a book about the band (and enough unreleased songs for a companion album). He initially stated that he was going to release a book, but the "book concept is FAR from being a reality. It's just a hazy thought in my mind at this point. Part of that haze includes demos, rehearsals, prank phone calls, unused photos, etc. The amount of unseen/unheard material I have collected over the years is somewhat baffling. Believe me, it's not going to happen anytime soon."reference needed
Trey Spruance formed Secret Chiefs 3 with fellow Mr. Bungle members Dunn and Danny Heifetz in the mid-nineties.
In 1999, Mike Patton formed the supergroup Fantômas with Dunn on bass, Buzz Osborne of the Melvins on guitar, and Dave Lombardo of Slayer on the drums. Fantômas has released several albums of ecletic avante-garde, ambient, and heavy metal compositions.
In 1998, Dunn formed his Trio-Convulsant. Their first release, Debutantes & Centipedes, features Dunn on bass, Adam Levy on guitar, and Kenny Wollesen on drums. The album Sister Phantom Owl Fish on Ipecac (2004) includes Ches Smith on percussion and Mary Halvorson on guitar.[3]
Citing his long hiatus from writing rock music, Dunn formed the band MadLove with Sunny Kim on lead vocals, Ches Smith on drums, Hilmar Jensson on guitar, and Erik Deutch on keyboard. They recorded their debut album, White with Foam, during 2008, and it was released on Ipecac Records in September 2009.
Trevor has recently joined the band Tomahawk, replacing Kevin Rutmanis.
Trevor teamed up with Melvins' King Buzzo and Dale Crover for several tour dates in 2011 billed as the Melvins Lite.
Dunn has participated in dozens of other recordings, both as a main collaborator and a guest musician. He is part of Mike Pride's MPThree, David Krakauer's Klezmer Madness, and the Nels Cline Singers. He has contributed to or played with:
Bass guitars[4]
