White House Delays Release of Roberts Documents
The White House is delaying the release of some 50,000 documents related to Supreme Court nominee John Roberts. This according to a report in the Washington Post. Most of the papers deal with legal work done by Roberts for the Reagan administration in the 1980s. The White House has sent a team of lawyers to the Reagan library to review all unreleased documents. Questions about Roberts have intensified after other documents revealed that Roberts consistently took a very conservative view of the law while he worked for the Reagan and Bush administrations in 1980s. He argued against affirmative-action quotas and other civil rights remedies and he expressed deep skepticism about what he called the "so-called right to privacy" that underpins the constitutional right to abortion.
Conservative Group Withdraws Support For Roberts
Meanwhile a conservative organization based in Virginia called Public Advocate has announced it is withdrawing its support for Roberts to be a Supreme Court justice. The group is upset that Roberts once helped overturn a Colorado referendum on that would have allowed discrimination against gays.
NARAL Accuses Roberts of Siding With Abortion Clinic Bomber
And the abortion rights group NARAL Pro-Choice America has begun airing television ads that accuses Roberts of siding with violent extremists and a convicted clinic bomber while serving in the solicitor general's office. The ad focuses on Roberts's role in a case involving whether a 19th-century anti-Ku Klux Klan statute could be used to shut down blockades of health clinics by abortion protesters. The solicitor general's office–where Roberts worked — filed a friend-of-the-court brief siding with the clinic protesters, including Operation Rescue. Backers of Roberts have accused NARAL of distorting the nominee's record.
Federal Court Overturns Convictions of the Cuba 5
In Florida, a federal court has overturned the convictions of the Cuba 5. The Cuban nationals were arrested in 1998 after they shared information with the U.S. government on how anti-Castro Cuban exiles in Florida were planning to carry out terrorist attacks in Cuba. The men were accused of being spies and a threat to the national security of the United States. For years activists around the world have organized calling for their freedom. On Tuesday the federal court ruled that the men did not get a fair trial in Miami, a stronghold of Cuban exiles opposed to the Cuban government. The National Committee to Free the Cuban Five is now calling on the U.S. government to release the men and drop all charges. We'll have more on this story in a few minutes.
Suicide Bombings Kill Dozens in Iraq
In Iraq, a suicide car bombing struck a U.S. convoy in Baghdad on Tuesday killing seven including one U.S. soldier. 90 people were injured. Another suicide attack in Baghdad killed six and wounded 14. Four U.S. soldiers were also killed in the northern city of Beiji.
Mayor of Baghdad Ousted
In Iraq, the mayor of Baghdad has been ousted after 120 Shiite gunmen reportedly stormed his office and installed a new mayor. The outgoing mayor warned that the move was dangerous and undemocratic.
Poll: 57% of U.S. Says Iraq War Has Made Nation Less Safe
Meanwhile a new poll by USA Today in this country has found that 57 percent of respondents believes the war in Iraq has made the United States more vulnerable to another terrorist attack. Only 34 percent said the war had made the country safer.
More Military Families Join Cindy Sheehan in Texas
In Texas, more military families are heading to Crawford to join Cindy Sheehan in an ongoing vigil in Crawford where President Bush is vacationing. Sheehan has threatened to stay in Crawford until the president agrees to meet with her. Sheehan's son Casey died last year in Iraq. He was 24 years old. Military families from Washington, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Alabama, Missouri, Georgia and Arkansas are expected to join Sheehan at the vigil site. "He doesn't have any children in harm's way. You know, if there are more soldiers and marines killed today, it's not going to worry him if one of them is his daughter," said Sheehan. "I mean, he's insulated. He's safe. Nobody in this administration has to worry about their children. And if I have to stay out here all month in this heat, it's nothing compared to what our soldiers are going through or what the people of Iraq are going through."
Bush Looks to Cut State Dept. Arms Control Offices
The Bush administration is in the process of quietly eliminating most State Department arms control offices by phasing out senior positions and merging personnel and functions with nonproliferation and other units. This according to a report by the Global Security Newswire. The move appears to reflect a shift by the administration away from decades of promoting international arms control agreements.
Israel Prepares for Gaza Pull-Out
The Israeli government is preparing for next week's planned evacuation of Jewish settlements in the Gaza Strip. Earlier today the Israeli army announced that Gaza will become a closed military zone for Jewish settlers and Israelis beginning on Sunday. Israel is threatening settlers that if they do not voluntarily leave, their homes will be demolished and they will lose everything inside. Meanwhile the Israeli military is cracking down on soldiders who are refusing to take part in the evacuation.
Israeli Soldiers Refusing Orders to Deploy to Gaza
At least 50 enlisted soldiers and several dozen reservists have already refused orders. The Israeli army is warning that these dissident soldiers could create militias within the IDF. The Army is also currently searching for at least nine AWOL soldiers who still have their IDF-issued guns. Last week one AWOL soldier wearing an IDF uniform shot dead Israeli Arabs in the town of Shfaram. Also in Israel, a group of prominent rabbis have called on soldiers to refuse orders related to the evacuation of Gaza
5 Die in Taser Police Shootings
Five people have died in California and Arizona over the past week after being shot by police with Taser stun guns. This brings the total number of people killed in the United States by stun guns to at least 147. In one case Arizona police shot a man outside a convenient car because he refused to get out of a car that was not his. After police tried to remove him from the car, they shot him in the arm and leg with a Taser. After he was taken to the hospital, he had a seizure and died.
FCC Launches Payola Investigation
In media news, the Federal Communications Commission has launched an investigation into an emerging payola scandal where record companies paid off radio stations to play their recordings. Last month a probe by New York Attorney General Elliot Spitzer resulted in a $10 million settlement paid by Sony BMG.
NCAA Cracks Down on Native American Mascots
The NCAA has announced it will begin to prohibit college sports teams from using any nickname or logo considered racially or ethnically hostile or abusive. The ban will only go into effect during post-season play. Notifications are being sent out to 18 teams that use Native American mascots, nicknames or logos. Several schools have threatened to sue the NCAA over the decision including Florida State, the home of the Seminoles. Florida Governor Jeb Bush said QUOTE "How politically correct can we get? The folks that make these decisions need to get out more often."
Indonesia Prepares to Sign Peace Agreements w/ Aceh Rebels
And finally the Indonesian government is expected to sign a peace agreement on Monday with the Aceh rebels known as the GAM. The Indonesian military has killed thousands in Aceh province over the past decade.

DN! In Depth
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan
On March 21, 1915, a motion picture was screened for the first time inside the White House. President Woodrow Wilson sat down to watch D.W. Griffith's "The Birth of a Nation," considered one of the most nakedly racist of all time. One hundred years later, another film was screened at the White House, this time at the invitation of the first African-American president. The film was "Selma."

The 30 volunteers operated within the biggest army medical facility in the war zone, Camp Bastion, where they escaped a rocket attack in February.
The unit is made up of consultants, surgeons, doctors, anaesthetists, nurses and radiographers from across Northern Ireland's five main health trusts.
On Saturday, they returned to their base at Hydebank in south Belfast, and Colonel Alan Black,Commanding Officer of 204 (North Irish) Field Hospital, said there is no difference between regular and reserve members.
He said: "I have never been asked by a patient whether the doctor or nurse treating them is regular or reserve.
"From the perspective of the seriously ill patient with the heart attack in the emergency department, or the soldier brought in from the battlefield with severe blast injuries from an improvised explosive device, their principal concern is that they should get the best possible care.
"This is exactly what they get and I have no doubt that many people were saved in Bastion who would simply have not survived elsewhere."
The Northern Ireland-based soldiers worked alongside regular and reservists from across the UK, as well as medical staff from the US Army, US Marine Corps and Danish Armed Forces to treat troops, Afghan nationals and Taliban insurgents wounded on the front line.

FIFA president Sepp Blatter insisted on Thursday that the 2022 World Cup in Qatar will go ahead in June and July as planned despite ongoing speculation that the tournament could be moved to the cooler winter months.
Blatter also reiterated that any request to change the timing of the event would have to come from the organisers themselves.
The FIFA chief said "The World Cup, FIFA World Cup 2022, is a competition with 32 Teams, 64 Matches and has to be played in June-July. And this principal has never be put into question by the organiser."
The debate on playing games in the blisteringly hot Qatari summer months began almost immediately after the tiny desert state won the right to host FIFA's flagship tournament in December 2010.
Despite the promise by organisers that matches will be played in air-conditioned stadiums the debate is likely to continue until at least 2016 when a final tournament timetable must be approved.

Caulking windows can help you save money on energy costs and even keep insects from coming through the cracks. Here's how to do it properly.
Angie's Answers
Hello - I hope my answer will help point you in the right direction.
The reason you're having a hard time getting clear information is because there are hundreds of companies saying their window is the best. There are probably millions of different features you can choose to have for your windows and in price ranges from $169-$1200 (per double-hung window).
I've been in the business for 15 years and have seen many different window products from many different dealers and manufacturers. This all comes down to: "what's important for you and your home?" If you want a strong warranty from a company who has a full-time service department to give you piece of mind and service your windows should needs be, or are you looking at only those companies who offer true wood interior windows that you can paint or stain to match the home decor? Whatever is your hot-button, then that's where you want to start.
I would recommend you first choose how you want your new windows to look. Wood-interior with vinyl clad is only offered by certain companies, while there is a vinyl woodgrain finish to give you similar results without the maintenance. If you're only looking for a white interior and don't want the maintenance, a fiberglass or vinyl window would be the best choice from what is offered in the market today (vinyl will be less expensive - not necessarily cheaper quality). If you are going to change out a window to a french door and a door to a window, then you WILL NEED to find a contractor with some carpentry experience. Some companies will tell you upfront that they do not handle those sorts of remodeling projects due to the complexity and time it would take to get it complete.
Unfortunately, we won't be able to personally help you with your project as we work in the New England Area. However, if you wish to talk further, please feel free to email me at: email@example.com and I'll be happy to let you know our prices for what we offer so you can compare and hopefully find a similar company to do the work for you near the Austin area.
Get your roofer back out there. Course of shingles above the window need to be pulled, self sealing flashing, drip caps, and counter and step flashing are going to be required here.
This is a flashing issue as the window connects to the mansard roof surface.
Condensation and a leak are two different and very noticeably different (i.e. volume) things.
Flashing and roofing on Mansards can be tricky but is sounds very much like a roofing issue.
Much easier to scratch and typically not as good a finished quality as compared to glass.
Benefits are the resistance to breakage as mentioned by LCD. Any glazing shop should be able to re-create that panel.
For a broken window (or leaking seal in multi-pane unit), for a standard roughly 2x3 foot window, can run from low of about $75-125 for single pane to more like $200-300 range for triple pane, depending on construction and any special ultraviolet or heat reflective coatings. If a removeable window unit, of course cheaper to remove it and take to replacement glass place then have them come out, measure glass size, order glass unit, then come back to install.
If taking in yourself, commonly they can do single-pane in an hour or two, but count on a week or so typically for sealed double or triple pane unit to come in, so you will have to seal the opening in the interim. That is an advantage of having them come out - they measure and determine type of unit on first visit and can seal with tape and plastic sheeting (if you have not already done that), then come back with new unit and install a week or two down the road - but you are not stuck with an opening in the wall for a long time.
Thermal numbers look okay when looking at the NFRC.
Do you have any other data on them? Air infiltration, Design Pressure, Visible Transmittance, and Condensation Resistance are all good evaluators.
Air infiltration rate is way high at 0.21.
It may look nice in person but the performance numbers are below average.
Once you decide you are suing, there should be no further contact or access to the property with the contractor. If you have already been told you are suing, you should stop all access to your property (you are allowing them to gather evidence AGAINST you. Your lawyer may be able to reach an agreement outside of court to allow the contractor to fix the work within a specific time period, but even then make sure you are not in contact with the contractor. Anything you say, will be turned against you ("The Home Owner said it was okay.")
A building official has no legal obligation in court; his job is safety and minimum construction requirements as allowed per Code. He has no say over materials and methods, and cannot assess damage. (IRC doesn't have a requirement that the door you mention exceed 35", so he won't care it isn't 36" as an example). What he CAN do is state if the work is unsafe or causing other conditions which are unsafe. Let your lawyer decide; but it is not in your best interest to have the Building Offical inspect with the contractor.
To sue you need to show damages. Get another contractor (get some references or hire an architect to help ensure you get what you need) to inspect the work and give an estimate to repair. The amount the contractor(s) estimates becomes what you seek in court (plus court fees) from the contractor. If his work caused problems, you should be suing, not sued.
Also, be aware that no door manufacturer makes an actual 36" door (as an example). They each have their own frame sizes, so a "36 door" in reality will be 35 7/8" to 35 3/8". Each door maker has slightly different sizes (go online, you can see Pella, Anderson, Kolbe-Kolbe, etc. have their actual sizes available for PDF downloads). If you replace a Pella 36" with an Anderson's 36" they won't fit perfectly. In fact, the different styles within the same manufacturer are sometimes even different. The purpose of trim is to hide the gap between the wall and door frame, so your door may be perfectly fine in size and method of installation.
When you have this work corrected (and for any future work) utilize the services of a lisenced Architect. They will oversee the work, review requests for payments and document existing conditions and conditions found during construction to prevent the situation you are now in. They will also ensure the proper permits are filed and the inspections called for. Because they are a third party to the agreement, they can be the 'bad guy' and make the contractor perform, where you just have to pay the invoices they approve. The contractor deals with the Architect (and vice versa) and you get the project you wanted. The cost of the architect would have been around $3,200 and is minimal compared to what you are dealing with now, the peace of mind is worth it and architects often find cost savings that go directly back to the Home Owner. When you account for time alone, you will have spent more than this on just preparing and attending the court case.
Because this is headed to court, stop all communication with the contractor and get yourself counsel. Good luck.
Window Replacement reviews in Corning
Thank you.
P.S. and do not state in the call: "we are working in your neighborhood! " Angie's List user: be alert!
We decided to put it on the so we can have more money for our daughter's college fund.
Unfortunately our home was not in the best shape. We had designed it to be a loving family home and soon we ...More /> found out that what we liked so much in our home is not always what buyers are looking for. After it had been listed for a month without any offers, we decided to consult with our listing agent. Among other stuff, she suggested to replace our old
windows and doors to hurricane rated ones. Honestly now that the new windows and doors are in i really regrt that we never bothered to replace them when we kept it for ourselves. The windows that Alpha put into our home look amazing and bring so much light into the house. Once the project was completed in the beginning of this month we decided to list it again.
the renovations were a good call, because now we have already 3 bids within the asking price on our property.
I recomended it to my friends and definitely recommend it to everyone who is looking to upscale their home!
The team that he sent to work on the house was exceptional. They were true professionals, and we felt very comfortable with them working on our home. They kept us up to date on the time it was going to take. I would highly recommend them.

According to "Guardians of the Galaxy" co-writer Nicole Perlman, James Gunn will write and direct the film's sequel. It's expected that this is one of the titles Marvel will announce at their Hall H panel this week at Comic-Con, with a likely 2018 release date planned. (The Wrap)
Meanwhile, word out of the DC camp is that Chris Terrio, one of the writers (Ben Affleck brought him onboard to rewrite the script and give it some punch) on 2016's "Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice", is Warner's top-pick to write the "Justice League" movie. It's been reported that Terrio wants to direct a movie, so maybe he can use this as leverage against the studio to let him do just that (if even on a smaller-scale project)? (Deadline)

About this item
In a profoundly strange country called Inner Horner, large enough for only one resident at a time, citizens waiting to enter the country fall under the rule of the power-hungry and tyrannical Phil, setting off a chain of injustice and mass hysteria.
An Animal Farm for the 21st century, this is an incendiary political satire of unprecedented imagination, spiky humor, and cautionary appreciation for the hysteric in everyone. Over six years in the writing, and brilliantly and beautifully packaged, this novella is Saunders' first stand-alone, book-length workand his first book for adults in five years.
From the author of Tenth of December...

The Book of Psychiatric Diagnosis
According to the newly revised DSM V -- often called the Bible of psychiatry -- there are no hypochondriacs. Hypochondriasis has been removed as a diagnosable disorder. So has Asperger's Syndrome, which has been folded into a larger Autism Spectrum Disorder. There are new disorders, including Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder and Hoarding Disorder. But by far the biggest new syndrome in psychiatry is Complaining About the DSM V. Nobody seems to like it, ranging from people who believe that the new manual leans too heavily on the idea that psychiatric disorders are essentially biological illnesses to, well, people who think the new manual completely punts on the idea that psychiatric disorders are essentially biological illnesses. Why should you care. What does any of this have to do with you. We'll explore that with critics and defenders of the DSM. Leave your comments below or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com, join us on Facebook, or tweet us @wnprcolin.

2012 Volvo XC60 3.2 Premier 4dr AWD Overview
The XC60 is a premium crossover from Volvo. Comfortable and practical, the XC60 may be the safest vehicle Volvo has ever built. It includes many safety features, and paired with its good looks and dynamic styling makes it immediately recognizable as a Volvo.
The front-wheel drive XC60 is powered by either a 240-hp 3.2-liter inline-six-cylinder, or 230-hp 3.2-liter PZEV engine. The "Instant Traction" all-wheel drive XC60 is offered with the same engine choices as the front-wheel drive, but can also be ordered with a 300-hp 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, and even a new 325-hp 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, depending on the trim level. All engine variations are matched with a Geartronic six-speed automatic transmission. One impressive standard safety feature is "City Safety" which reacts at low speed to help prevent or reduce rear-end collisions by allowing the XC60 to automatically self brake to a complete stop without driver input. Other standard features include electronic stability with roll control, trailer stability assist, six airbags, and four-wheel anti-lock brakes. Depending on the trim level other standard features include leather seating, keyless drive, a panoramic roof, active bi-xenon headlamps, and park assist.
The 2012 Volvo XC60 receives new trim and equipment levels, Premier, Premier Plus, and Platinum trims are all new for 2012.

New online eligibility tool helps students find out if they can access special funding for workforce education and training at Yakima Valley Community College
Start Next Quarter Survey
Yakima Campus – Yakima Valley Community College in collaboration with the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges is excited to announce Start Next Quarter. The anonymous survey allows prospective and current students the chance to see if they pre-qualify to receive special funding to help pay for workforce education and training programs at YVCC.
The online eligibility tool allows students to determine whether or not they are eligible for funding through Worker Retraining, Basic Food, Education and Training (BFET), WorkFirst, and/or the Opportunity Grant. Following the survey students have the option to connect with college staff, attend a workshop to learn more, or get started with the enrollment process.
History Community and Technical Colleges have always worked to improve access for all students. Various tools have been developed to link potential students directly to workforce funding. Building on these efforts the Seattle District created Start Next Quarter on their campus. Funding was made available to expand the use of the tool and now 18 of 34 community and technical colleges are using Start Next Quarter to help potential students' access workforce grants.
How it Helps Students Start Next Quarter is designed to assist students in answering questions on how to start and pay for school. The survey asks questions about educational goals, income, food benefits, unemployment insurance, and other key eligibility requirements. The answers remain anonymous until the student decides they would like to connect with college staff. They then have the option to sign up for a workshop to learn more about what YVCC has to offer.

Part-time Students
The college is aware that some of our part-time students have also achieved significant academic success while balancing full-time jobs, family responsibilities, and college studies. Part-time students are eligible each time they complete 12 credits at YVCC and their GPA falls within the designated list for the quarter. Part-time students need to notify the Registration and Records Office each time they qualify. Dean's List and President's List notations will be posted on the transcript for the quarter in which the 12 credits are completed at YVCC.
Yakima Campus – The Yakima Valley Community College's Dental Hygiene Program is hosting the 22nd Annual Free Dental Sealant Day, Saturday, February 7, 2015 from 9:00am – 1:00pm. Patients will receive a free visual dental exam, fluoride varnish, and sealants when needed. A sealant is a safe plastic coating that is painted onto the tooth. The sealant protects the tooth from bacteria that can cause cavities. Patients age 4-21 can schedule an appointment between January 12 -February 6. Appointments must be scheduled in advance and children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Spanish interpreters are available.
The Weston D. Brown Dental Hygiene Clinic is located on the Yakima Valley Community College Yakima Campus at 1015 South 16th Avenue, Yakima, WA 98902. Free Dental Sealant Day is a collaboration of YVCC, Yakima Valley Dental Hygienists and Dentists, DSHS, and the Yakima Health District.
For more information: 509.574.4917.
Yakima Campus-Yakima Valley Community College will host a FAFSA/WASFA Information Session on Tuesday, January 20, 2015 from 6:00-8:00pm in the Hopf Union Buidling (HUB). The information session will cover the financial aid application process and what information is reported on the financial aid application including step-by-step instructions. Students will then have the opportunity to attend a workshop on either Wednesday, January 21, 2015 or Thursday, January 22, 2015 to help them complete either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the Washington Application for State Financial Aid (WASFA). The workshops will be held in the Deccio Higher Education Center Room C236 and each day will feature sessions beginning at 2:00pm, 4:00pm, and 6:00pm. Volunteers will be available to help students and answer questions. There is no cost to attend.
FAFSA: The FAFSA is required to apply for federal financial assistance for higher education. Each year, the U.S. Department of Education provides more than $150 billion in grants, loans, and work-study funds to students in need. In addition, many states and colleges use the FAFSA data to determine eligibility for state and school aid, and some private financial aid providers may use FAFSA information to determine whether students qualify for their aid.
WASFA: A new state law recently expanded the eligibility for the Washington State Need Grant to low-income, non-citizen students who meet the program's eligibility requirements and satisfy the following residency criteria:
Have graduated from a Washington high school or obtained a GED (or will do so before beginning college)
Have lived in Washington for three years prior to, and continuously since, earning the high school diploma or equivalent
Sign an affidavit to file an application to become a permanent resident of the United States when eligible to apply
Whether you choose a four-year university, community college, vocational or technical school, this event can help you get financial aid.

STILLWATER — The libraries at Oklahoma State University and the University of Oklahoma have joined together to create a website that makes published research results easily accessible to the public.
The website includes digital dissertations, faculty publications and research, open-access publications and more.
The project is called SHAREOK and is an effort to make federally funded research results freely available to the public. The White House has called for greater transparency in scientific research projects.
SHAREOK hopes to expand to include other Oklahoma higher education institutions in the future.
The deans at both libraries have championed the project.

As expected, looks like Hillary won Penn, Fox has made the call. Really won't matter as far as delegates go, especially since like in Texas Obama can pick up more delegates per vote than Hillary due to him winning districts that are more heavily Democrat. Still, this does mean at least a little while longer of the Dem candidates going at each other, good times!
The point is, Obama can't win it without the super delegates either and they've got to be MIGHTY nervous about him right now. McCain will be tough to be if he wins PA and OH and Obama is not a good candidate there. Let's see how IN goes. This could be very interesting and is far more intricate than just the delegate count.
It's too bad. I'm getting sick of this race. Both Obama and Clinton are better candidates than McCain, but they are sowing division in the party. I'm hoping that if Obama does extremely well in NC, Clinton will bow out, but that's wishful thinking. Frankly, the only shot McCain has is that Democratic infighting does enough damage that Democrats stay home.
I disagree that losing or winning a state in a primary indicates anything about how a candidate will do in the GE. My guy did good...16%. What does that say about McCain, BTW?
Forget NC, Obama needs to give her a big thumping in Indiana for her to drop out but he has proven time and time again that he can't deliver the knockout punch. That's not at all true. Assuming it's Obama, McCain will likely do very well against Obama's ultra liberal record. Obama has been very week in key stats like PA, OH. Who knows about FL.
I'm begining to think that Hillary would be a more difficult opponent for McCain, than Obama. Obama does not do well, nor does he poll well versus McCain, in must win states. Hillary polls better in the big states against McCain. This is one crazy election year. While I think Obama has the nomination secured, I can't help but think that the Clintn Machine is going to slime it's way into stealing it. What a disgrace that woman is.
Obama isn't going to win enough delegates to secure the nomination. That's what he gets for not closing the deal and showing weakness in very important states. I think Obama gets the nomination - but if the Super Delegates move it to Hillary, that's what they're there for - to protect the party from what it's leaders see as a weak candidate. And if that's they determination they make about Obama, they are obligated, IMO, to do what's best for the party. The "will of the people" is changed a little with this long, drawn out process.
The Mccain people really want Prince Obama to win this side show but they don't dare mention it because the "race baiters" are waiting, they are constantly looking for that one wrong slip of the tongue that will start them Whailing their Racist Bullsh!t. The Mccain people know as do the "silent Americans" that Prince Barack has been fawned and slobbered over by the Left Wing Media like no other political figure in American History, The Prince is their "Politically Correct" DREAM COME TRUE. The American People are not stupid and Mccain knows this, Mccain will just sit back and wait, it may not be a nice thing to say and many in Public Life wouldn't dare to say it, but, Politically Correct Racism is what will nominate Prince Barack, Mccain knows this and he will be silent, he will just let "sh!t happen" then in November the "silent Americans will vote" Mccain will win. I don't like Mccain. After all his beautiful goose bump, fainting speeches we still don't know the "Real Prince" who is he? The Prince gives speeches that bring on Orgasms to his groupies but nobody knows what the f-ck he's talking about. Change We Can Believe In read his little signs, what is he going to change, he won't tell us......... Barnum & Bailey would love America's "New Prince" :bricks:
I think this is true, look at who's won what for the Dems, Obama is getting wins in all the places that are pretty surefire red states come November (like in the South, the red parts of the midwest), while Hillary is more popular in the battleground states (Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, New Hampshire) as well as the big states (New York, California) that the Dem candidate will 100% need to be elected. I heard last night (and if I heard it on TV it must be true) that around 25% of Clinton voters would vote for McCain over Obama, which has to be a scary possibility for the DNC.
Even after that story about him throwing down with that new member of Congress that was a former NFL linebacker, then becoming friends? Come on Harry, that's pretty good stuff, right?...
Well I held my nose and voted for Hillary yesterday. If Obama is the nominee, no way he takes Pennsylvania in November, without "help" in Philadelphia.

The loudest pontificaters of bringing Democracry and Freedom to the world are the biggest vandals against it at home.
:wha: Look who is a holier than thou, snotty liberal. Think whatever you want. As a Caucasian and a Jew, I just don't want Obama to be president. It is my legal right to vote in the primary I wish. You mf'rs only want freedom when it suits you. No difference between me and some SUPERdelegate.
Funny, just a week or so ago there was a story (even posted here in triumph) about how OpChaos wasn't working and Limbaugh was a failure. Furthermore--why exactly can't he vote in whatever primary he wants?
What??? "As a Caucasian and a Jew"????????????? I'm a Caucasian and a Jew. I support Obama based on Obama, not on his race, gender, etc. I vote based on being an American. That's pathetic that you vote based on your ethnicity. How about using your judgement on the merits of the person? You wrote what you wrote. And, btw, why introduce the namecalling? Can't you argue your point convincingly without the slingshot? Frankly, why can't people grow up and argue points without demonizing those that disagree with their opinons by calling them "snotty liberals" or "fascist righties".
Sure he can. But do you believe that is the goal of Democracy? People voting for the WORST (in their view) candidate? Doesn't seem very Patriotic to me. I would be against it if the Democrat Libs were doing it, too. It would be just as wrong. Whatever happened to Civic Morality, Ethics and Patriotism?

Very tricky game, but you learn some tricks around enemies like the knights where you can still hit him if he is blocking. I personally like it this way with only 3 lives, even though you can get more.
i dont understand it.u should get a health bar instead of 3 lives.i died on the second guy!!and u should have a combo for the sword.but i have to give u my 'meh' rating.
over all its a fun game kinda simple but fun and it is posible to get more than 3 lives ther are hidden lives through out the game

According to Sir George Beaumont (1753–1827), who presented the present picture to the National Gallery in 1826, the young American artist, Benjamin West, painted Pylades and Orestes 'immediately on his arrival in England', presumably in 1763, when he arrived from Italy (National Gallery, p.56). It was first shown at the annual exhibition of the Society of Artists, London, in 1766, with its companion the Continence of Scipio (Cambridge, Fitzwilliam Museum). West's narrative is taken from the third act of a play by the classical author Euripides (480–406 BC) entitled Iphigenia in Tauris. In the passage depicted by West, Iphigenia, a priestess of Diana, stands in judgement before the semi-naked figures of her brother Orestes (in the red drapery) and his cousin and companion, Pylades, who are brought before her, bound, by the shepherd (centre) who had previously reported their capture. Before Iphigenia, and separating her from the two men, is a low altar upon which the two men are to be sacrificed for their act of sacrilege. Beyond, at the entrance of the temple, is the gold statue of Diana that Orestes had been commanded by the oracle at Delphi to take back to Athens in reparation for the murder of his mother Clytemnestra, and which he had been attempting to seize when arrested.
In composing Pylades and Orestes West was heavily influenced by the neo-classical history paintings of Gavin Hamilton (1723–98) and Anton Raphael Mengs (1728–79), whom he had known during his studies in Italy between 1760 and 1763. He also looked for inspiration to the frescoes of Raphael (1483–1520) and classical relief sculpture, notably the Orestes Sarcophagus in the Villa Ridolfi, Rome, drawings from which he used to form the pose of his own figure of Orestes. West also revealed later that 'his mind was full of Correggio' when painting the present work, at least with respect to the colour of the figures' flesh (quoted in von Erffa and Staley, p.261).
The early history of the picture is interesting. Apparently it was greatly admired in West's studio, even before it was exhibited, although of the many wealthy collectors who came to inspect it, none offered to buy it. However, in 1766, the year of its exhibition, Alexander Geddes (1737–1802) purchased the picture from West for one hundred guineas, although by 1776 it belonged to the engraver and dealer Gerard Vandergucht (1696–1776), in whose posthumous sale it appeared the following year. By 1802 West had reacquired the picture, selling it once more, this time to the influential collector Sir George Beaumont. In 1826 Beaumont presented it to the National Gallery, making it the first picture by West to enter a public art gallery. It remained in the National Gallery until 1929, when it was transferred to the Tate Gallery.

River Phoenix Last Movie; Return To Big Screen After 20 Years Since Death [TRAILER]
By Staff Writer | February 14, 2013 04:09 PM EST
River Phoenix last movie is finally complete after 20 years since the actor died. Phoenix's last movie, "Dark Blood" was salvaged by director, George Sluizer, by piercing the existing footage with voiceover.
Like Us on Facebook
River Phoenix last movie was interrupted by the actor's sudden death in 1993. Filming for "Dark Blood" was scheduled to be completed 10 days before Phoenix was found dead at 23.The cause of his death was never confirmed, however, he was suspected to have died from a drug overdose.
"I found him a remarkable young man," Jonathan Pryce, co-star in "Dark Blood," told reporters after a press screening in Berlin.
"I can't believe now looking back that he was only 23 at the time, a kind of old head on young shoulders. He was absolutely delightful and wonderful to work with"
Pryce continued to say that he never knew Phoenix was using drugs during the filming of his last movie.
"In all the weeks we were together in Utah ... at no time did I experience him using drugs or abusing drugs in any way, shape or form. I'm not a drug user myself but I'd have known. It was a time in his life when he was very committed to not using drugs. I loved him a lot and I love his memory."
The journey to bringing "Dark Blood" together was certainly not an easy one. The Dutch filmmaker, Sluizer, struggled with 25% of the film's footage missing and also with sound and image mismatching. However, Sluizer, who is now 80 years old, managed to readjust the script and use voiceover to explain missing action.
Reuters reports that the the effect the film creates is "surprising coherent." However, Sluizer is not sure if a wider audience would be able to view the film because a deal has yet to be made with the company holding the rights.
"They are very tough," Sluizer said. "They are billionaires, money market people apparently who by mistake I would say have in their stock ... a film, and they don't care about movies and they don't care about culture, they care about money."
Sluizer also added that Phoenix's younger brother and actor, Joaquin Phoenix, gives the filmmaker his blessing. However, the family is not participating in the release.
"The relationship is that the mother of River wished us the best with the film."
