Comments about 'GOP governors spent $42,500 to fly New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to Utah'
Herbert, Swallow far outspend opponents

So why couldn't Governor Herbert's campaign pick up the tab? And 42.5 K sounds a bit much to me...

$42,500 is half of the amount he got in 2012 from the ICORE contractor, of $85,000. The governor knew that would come in handy at this time. The New Jersey Governor can't praise President Obama enough today as he got plenty of advertising for his campaign next year in the off year election.

Big deal. The cost depends on the aircraft. It costs about way more to operate Air Force One and that 747 is going everywhere. Last I heard it was $179,000.00 per hour to operate. The president could use a Gulfstream G V and save a ton of money for us poor taxpayers.

Staying in the Grand Hotel with the Gala is part of that cost and the Governor will ensure he is elected by doing anything he needs to.

If Herbert is courting Christie then I have to doubt his conservatism. Christie is NOT a conservative ... not by any stretch. At best he is a moderate liberal or independent. I call him a Collin Powell republican which translates to a republican on paper only. Herbert is ok ...but I would rather see a governor who had BOLD ideas about how to solve Utah's woeful education instead of just finding a nickle here and a dime there.

Certainly the cost depends on the aircraft, but I have NO
desire to see us cut back on Air Force One. It does not matter who is
president, he or she must be safe and have the full ability to remain commander
and chief even from the air. If that is the price tag, that is fine with me.

That is very disappointing that they would run such costs for a governor.
Granted it is their money and they can do with it as they please. But, it would
be nice to see our leaders practice what they preach. Why couldn't they use
a commercial flight? A round ticket might run near $500. The only way to
justify the private flight, is if by renting a private jet out and flying
everyone out, cost less than a commercial coach class tickets combined. I could
even see paying an extra amount if it meant saving 50-60 working hours for the
governor and staff.
C'mon people.
Then to watch the
president and governor fly around New Jersey. With the extra security, that is
costing the taxpayers a pretty penny once again. Based on the flyover what
decisions are made that aren't being covered by first responders and
charities? Or does it just make one more talking point and they can say they
were there?
They shouldn't be using money we don't have for
photo ops.

Why would I consider voting for Herbert when he spends money like this? There are plenty of flights with first-clas seats from New Jersey to SLC and for far less money they could have purchased every seat. Then the NJ Governor wouldn't have to sit next to the common folk. Add this to the fun we've had with UDOT's leadership and why would we want Gary running the ship any longer?

The legends for the Lafayette Dollar were not hubbed, but instead were punched by hand onto the working dies, similar to mint practice of the 1830s and earlier. The goal of striking the entire issue on the centennial of Washington's death (December 14, 1899) probably contributed to the usage of partially hubbed dies. On DuVall 3-D, the base of the AT in STATES is repunched on the obverse, while the olive branch has a slender and level stem. All varieties combined of the Lafayette Dollar have a mintage of 50,000 pieces, however, the Mint melted 14,000 unsold pieces in 1945, indifferent to their collector value. The Lafayette type remains the only Silver Dollar in the "classic" Silver Commemorative series, and one of two types (along with the Sesquicentennial Half Dollar) that depict the first president. Population: 5 in 67, none finer (1/05).

Competition Quotes in The Hunger Games
How we cite our quotes:
Quote #1
I spread out my fingers, and the dark berries glisten in the sun. I give Peeta's hand one last squeeze as a signal, as a good-bye, and we begin counting. "One." Maybe I'm wrong. "Two." Maybe they don't care if we both die. "Three!" It's too late to change my mind. I lift my hand to m mouth, taking one last look at the world. The berries have just passed my lips when the trumpets begin to blare. (25.93)
After downing a handful of berries, Katniss and Peeta are declared victorious. How did they defeat the Gamemakers?
Quote #2
And right now, the most dangerous part of the Hunger Games is about to begin. (26.69)
Wait. What? The Games are beginning again? We thought Katniss won? What does Katniss mean?

Tool Tip Tuesdays! New Video Series!
Firestorm has so many features and functions most folks don't even know about that we decided to do a series of short videos showcasing a hidden or lesser-known feature once a week. Starting today, and every Tuesday after, we will have a new video showing off something cool! This first video covers camera functionality that might be new to you!
Did you know you can alter your default camera follow position with just your Shift and Ctrl keys? You don't even need to open preferences!
Special Firestorm Q&A
Your Question & Answer Session
UPDATE:Live stream will be here: http://www.slartist.com/pages/fire.html
We will have Dennis Harper from OnLive on hand and on stage to answer any questions you may have about SLGo, but as always with our Q&As, it is an open venue for you to ask us your questions about anything you like.
Topics will be about SLGo, Firestorm, what's coming in the future, what's next and anything else that may come up.
It will be held over voice as usual, recorded and streamed live to a webpage. I will update this post with the URL for that stream just as soon as I have it.
The region may or may not fill up quickly; it's hard to say at this time of year. Come early.
Where and when
Sunday Dec 21st @ 1pm SLT in the Firestorm Auditorium http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Phoenix%20Firestorm%20Support/169/128/4002

Firestorm on SL Go!
Can your computer get 50FPS in a crowded region with a draw distance of 256 at full ultra with shadows graphics settings? It can now! For several months now we have been quietly working with OnLive towards the goal of giving users a way to use Firestorm on computers and mobile devices with OnLive's SL Go app. Gah! It's been so hard keeping a secret!
We are very excited to announce that OnLive has just released Firestorm in their SL Go app, allowing you to run it on your PCs, Mac computers and soon on mobile devices! What's most exciting about this is how it enables residents on older computers and less capable laptops to experience Second Life and Opensim on ultra graphics without spending hundreds or thousands to upgrade their systems. It's an affordable way for everyone to experience the full potential and beauty of SL with high framerates and great performance! You can read the official OnLive press release http://www.onlive.com/news/pressreleases/1696
How it works…
Onlive is essentially a streaming service. They host Firestorm and the SL Viewer on their many servers and stream video of a viewer's interface and graphics to your computer screen while relaying your key and mouse inputs back to the viewer. This allows you to use graphically intensive games and applications without weighting down your own computer. In many ways it is like a remote desktop allowing you to manipulate the computer you are connected to with your own computer or mobile device. And since the computers on which OnLive hosts Firestorm are very high-end machines, you can run SL with full ultra graphics, shadows and everything without the drop in performance that highly detailed graphics usually cause!
In this first version for OnLive you may find a few things disabled. For example, file pickers have been disabled, settings backup/restore cannot be used yet, voice is disabled etc. But rest assured in near future iterations these will be fixed and enabled again to work on your local machine, providing you the ability to save snapshots to your computer and upload from it. It is our hope that near-full functionality of the Firestorm Viewer will be a reality very soon. We have prepared a wiki section to answer most questions you may have: http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/onlive
Firestorm Mobile coming soon! For real this time!
A couple of years ago we fooled a great many of you with the April Fools Day joke "Firestorm Mobile for Tablets, Smart phones and Stupid phones!" The excitement over the idea of a mobile Firestorm, as well as the outcry when everyone realized it wasn't true, were somewhat overwhelming to put it mildly. It became very evident that there really are a great many of you who would absolutely love the ability to run Firestorm with its full interface on your mobile devices. The good news is that OnLive is making this capability a reality very soon, and that is no joke!
It isn't free, but is very affordable!
Obviously OnLive has to pay for their servers, bandwidth, technology and staff, so this service is not free the way the volunteer-run Firestorm Project is. But at US$9.95 a month it sure is a lot cheaper than upgrading your computer to new hardware. OnLive offers a free, cancel anytime 7-day trial so we encourage you to give it a go! http://slgo.onlive.com/
As a show of their appreciation for the business, OnLive has offered to pay for a translation service in Firestorm Viewer. This will work in both the OnLive Firestorm version and our own, which will allow everyone to once again have an automatic translation system running in Firestorm full time. We hope to have that implemented in our next release.
We expect you will all have many questions, so on Sunday, December 21st, we will be hosting a very special Q&A in our auditorium at 1pm SLT. The event will be streamed live, recorded and transcribed for those who cannot attend. Here is the location: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Phoenix%20Firestorm%20Support/169/128/4002
Stay tuned to our blog for updates on this.

New Delhi: A group of 50 orphan children,
including nineteen girls today arrived in the national capital
for an educational tour from the Naxal affected districts of
Dantewada and Bijapur in Chhattisgarh.
The children, who had either lost one or both of their
parents to naxal violence, have been brought here for a
four-day visit by the CRPF and are expected to meet President
Pratibha Patil, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Union Home
Minister P Chidambaram.
The aim of the tour is to familiarise these children
to developed areas of the country like Delhi. They will later
be taken to the Parliament, Rashtrapati Bhawan, Jantar Mantar,
India Gate and Qutab Minar till their stay here on December
20, a CRPF officer said.
The children are students of a school run by the CRPF
in Dantewada-- Astha gurukul vidyalaya.
The initiative is the first where children from naxal
violence hit states are being brought for educational and
entertainment excursions, the officer said.

Only artists dedicate their work (186 comments)
If your work is art - bought for aesthetic pleasure, like paintings, sculptures, or books - you may dedicate it. Art is all about the artists' expression, their artistic personality; dedicating the work to a person they love is simply another part of that intimacy that an art viewer develops with the artists.
If you're writing a tool or a service, personal whims have little space, and more important than those are a more thoughtful design and a more professional feel.
This doesn't mean, however, that a web application cannot be art. Video games, for instance, are often considered art, web-based videos games included. So long as whoever sponsors the project agrees to it (assuming the role of an art patron - most likely you'll do it on your free time), the project can be made to feel like art, and in those cases there's place for personal touches such as dedication.

It seems to me this isn't a Linux issue. Was Microsoft ever just an OS vendor? Was Apple? Sun?
Maybe this is the key. The OS vendor has a unique advantage in positioning its own software; this, coupled with potentially the best understanding of the inner workings of its OS, hints to me that an OS will only really take off (in terms of market share) if a strong vendor invests in developing basic package - the kind of software you use every day, which shapes your opinion of the entire OS's user experience, and in a way your expectations from any piece of software running on the OS.
Re:Why BASIC? What for? (783 comments)
Nobody else did, so I'll state the obvious.
Python is slow, that is true. From a little experience doing some heavy math, a good rule of thumb is about 1000 times slower than C (for simple stuff, you can safely assume that that's as fast as it gets). The point is that this doesn't mean Python is a bad language, nor that it doesn't have its uses, it only means that when doing heavy duty work, you shouldn't use Python. I wouldn't write a database, a 3D graphics engine, or a quantum mechanics simulation in Python.
That said, 99.99% of what you do these days is not performance-critical. One has to appreciate the fact that if I have a
The last point in favor of Python is that beyond mere development speed, Python is much, much more user friendly and I believe more beginner friendly. Compare:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello world!");
return 0;
print "Hello world!"
Try writing a simple TCP socket chat client/server, and the difference becomes much more obvious.
Re:Government responsible says, 'Look, commies'. (281 comments)
Well, since Iran formally denies wanting the bomb, it's hard to say why they want it, but given that the rulership there consists of a religious leader who sanctifies "occupied" Jerusalem and a wacko president who cries out for the destruction of Israel, I'm not entirely convinced what you said is true. And Israel sure as hell won't bet its existence on it.
Re:Government responsible says, 'Look, commies'. (281 comments)
I didn't say they can't, I said they don't have the right. I presuppose a subjective moral system that has been the foundation of the free world, which says that you don't harm a country that means you no harm and does you no wrong.
Re:Government responsible says, 'Look, commies'. (281 comments)
Your rant is pure demagoguery.
What you seem to disregard is that Iran is now ruled exclusively by a religious leader, and that his dog Ahmadinejad doesn't just not get along with Israel, but calls out for the destruction of Israel pretty much any time there's an open microphone nearby. He does so even though Israel has never done anything bad to Iran and the two countries even had strong military relations prior to 1979.
You also forget that Iran spends millions of oil dollars every year funding terrorist organizations whose sole purpose is to harm and kill American and Israeli civilians.
What your last paragraph is basically saying is that it's OK for Iran to destroy Israel (even if we assume that they could), because Christianity is false. Even if Christianity is false, nobody has the right to destroy another country the way Iran wants to destroy Israel.

Here's another idea that'll stop malware - put a physical switch on the motherboard. If you're cool enough to install Linux, you're cool enough to figure that one out.
Re:Exactly. (331 comments)
Exactly. A good salesperson does not represent his company's product to the clients; s/he represents the client to the company. Make them feel the salesperson has their best interest at heart, make sure they speak the language of the client. Most importantly, make sure they understand exactly what the client wants - ensure the salespeople have the same mindset as the client, but also the technical aptitude to translate that to engineer-speak, and you'll find that your customers both trust the salespeople and are happier with the end result.

I honestly don't understand why a web browser, which today is a platform for doing almost anything, would let any foreign code run without an explicit user request/confirmation - in the form of a standard, Firefoxy window the user knows. It's simply not security minded. Don't trust other people's code!
Re:Get Nokia N900 (3 comments)
I'll check it out. Again, the device I'm looking for isn't something more than a PDA - it's just a PDA that'll allow you to run a script if you can't seem to do what you want with the available GUI.
Re:Bad, but not as bad as Visa (230 comments)
"If Visa then determines that the charge was legitimate, we get the $13.95 back (but not the $25.)" How the hell would this hold up in court? You legally prove the customer was an asshole and you did everything as legitimately as possible, kept all the records, anything, and still VISA takes money from you? It's not a small amount either, $11.05 per claim. All your competitors need to do is get up a bunch of enough people, or the same people again, say 5000, have them sign up and cancel the charge, and you get a $55,250 bill in the mail. I say sue Visa.

Suited Up and Suitable for Soaping (and Candlemaking)
How do you dress to make soap or candles? Are you covered head to toe in protective gear or are you be found in a t-shirt, shorts, and bare feet?
If it's the former, you'll want to read on to feel good about yourself or to make sure you're doing things the right way. If the latter, well, consider this a lecture.
Making soap and candles comes with inherent dangers, mainly pertaining to heat and caustic substances. We've all heard stories about people being burned by lye, caustic soap getting in the eye, burns from a forgotten pan of wax. To be sure, things happen. Soap gets spilled on the floor, unnoticed. A pot volcanoes, sending soap lava out of the pot and all over the surface it's sitting on. The candle wax heated up faster than you thought it would and flames appear. A properly suited up person is in a better position to react quickly and safely than one who isn't.
If it seems like overkill, think about it as if you were an employee of a company or that one of your loved ones was. What if that company allowed its workers to be barefoot, making soap? What if your child or other loved one were put to work in that environment without access to safety gear? I can predict that you would rightfully expect that both you and your loved ones would be properly protected, so offer the same to yourself.
Chandlers, think you're off the hook? Not so fast!. Hot wax is dangerous and cannot be removed easily, so as with soapmaking, shoes and socks and a heavy apron are essential equipment for protecting from splashes. Long sleeves and eyewear are also important.
Even in creating bath and body products, certainly safety rules must be obeyed. The first one that comes to mind is a mask to filter out particulates from powders such as cornstarch and powdered herbs. The second is to protect the skin from scent by wearing gloves.
Finally, wearing a respirator mask when working with scent, whether fragrance oils or essential oils, is just plain smart. We often worry about scent in regards to our customers, but tend to forget that we are exposed to much stronger scents, more frequently and for longer time periods than the average user and thus, are more likely to develop problems with scent than the general public.
My advice: get yourself suited up so you can safely pursue your craft!
Until next time,
May your days be filled with bubbles & wax.

Meh or Yeah?
As I was showering the other day, I noted how quickly my husband and I go through soap. It's a good thing I make it!
You see, hubby likes that soap-to-body experience– no wash cloths or soap savers for him. I've tried to convince him to use them, but to no avail. He also tends to judge a soap by its lathering capability, the more lather, the better. You can quite imagine how low he would rate castile soap. Moreover, he isn't particular about scent, as a general rule. If it's in the shower, he'll use it. He also likes larger bars than I do, and prefers rectangles.
I confess that I like lather, too, but I also like soap savers, cloths, and other cleansing and holding devices. Additionally, one of my criterion in soaping is to make a hard soap, except for facial use. Not that I don't engineer it to be moisturizing, but if my batch wasn't hard, then I would consider a batch to improve upon. I do enjoy a wide variety of scents, whether essential oils or fragrance oils and yet, I am much more discriminating when it comes to scent than hubby is. I like different shapes in soap as long as they fit in my hand, as well.
Of course, as a soapmaker, I am more attuned to colors and patterns in soap than most of the general public is, and admire those so skilled as to create them. That same consideration ranks at the bottom of my husband's checklist.
Thinking about our marked preferences caused me to wonder, what makes soap perfect in your book? Do you insist on hard bars? Do you search for the most conditioning oils and make them a large percentage of your soap? Perhaps scent is your biggest concern or you prefer only essential oils or only fragrance oils. Is a particular shape or size your favorite? Does it have to be artistic or do you prefer Plain Jane? Are soap savers and so on, a godsend or a hindrance?
Tell us about your perfect bar. What changes "meh" into "yeah" for you?
Until next time, may your days be filled with bubbles and wax.
Beth Byrne
Are You a Mad Scientist or Tried and True?
Oil. I never thought in my life that I would care so much about oil. Animal or vegetable, organic or refined, it captures my interest. And for what reason? Making soap, of course! Now, I consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur of oils and enjoy using many of them and experimenting with them in soap and other products. Do you?
Oil choices and percentages play a major part in making good soap and a soapmaker who wants to be knowledgeable simply cannot remain ignorant of each oil they use and its properties. Certainly, it's possible to make soap out of 100% coconut oil or 100% olive oil, and it is common. In fact, some of the world's most famous soaps are 100% olive oil. Yet, to my way of thinking, a truly wonderful bar comes from a mix of oils, each with properties that contribute to a bar that is moisturizing, cleans well without stripping the skin, lathers up well, and is hard enough to last in the tub or shower.
How do we find out which oils do what for soap? Research and experimentation is the answer. Begin with an established formula and tweak the oils until you reach what for you, is the perfect soap. It's part of the process for becoming a confident soapmaker. Hint: recipes that you run across calling for a can of this and a cup of that are best ignored. Can sizes may change over time, so if it doesn't state what that can size is by weight, move on. Cup and other types of non-weighed measurements are also potential problems. Why? Because even cup measurements from cup to cup can vary, so a cup of shortening might not weigh eight ounces, and lye calculations are based on the weight of each oil. You could potentially end up with either a very soft batch or a lye-heavy one. Soap isn't as forgiving as cooking and the ingredients were meant to be weighed out.
But what about you? Perhaps you have a formula that you have used for years and you're very happy with it, so you see no need to waste time or money on changing it. You admit that you know just so much about each oil that goes into your soap, but you do know how to produce a consistent product from batch to batch.
Where product production is concerned, I understand the need for a consistent formula, but couldn't exist without my r&d (research and development) time, but that may not be true for all.
Weigh in (no pun intended). Are you an experimenter (mad scientist) type or a tried-and-true soap/bath and body maker?
Until next time, may your days be filled with bubbles and wax.

It Takes all Kinds!
I was thinking recently about all the types of soapmakers and candlemakers out there.
Some like to keep things as basic and natural as possible. In fact, if it were possible to make soap without lye, these individuals would do it. These candlemakers use natural waxes as opposed to using paraffin wax.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, we know soapmakers who are concerned only with the process or the art of soapmaking and are willing to use whatever resources are at their disposal to make the soap they love. The same is true for some chandlers whose main goal is either production or beauty. It's not that this group of crafters don't care if their products are safe, they just believe that the legal ingredients they use are safe for their customers so they are free to use them as they desire.
Most of us, however, fall somewhere between the two extremes. Some of us insist on organic carrier oils, but scent with fragrance oils. Others use only essential oils, but use synthetic or nature identical colorants. Still others use no soy or no animal products or no palm oil. Moreover, good share of cosmetic makers are searching for effective natural preservatives.
The choices are nearly limitless and may cause confusion for both newbies and the experienced alike. What's really natural or acceptable? How much not-so-natural is acceptable? If I make products without regard to their naturalness or acceptability to various groups, are my products inferior? Add to that other concerns such as moral ones or sustainabililty and you have an entirely new set of questions.
With this vast array, we might believe that life would be much easier if we weren't offered so many possibilities. What does it gain us? Quite a bit, actually. First of all, it causes us to do research, the result being more knowledgeable artisans. Secondly, it provides us with niche markets. We can sell to vegans or vegetarians, to those looking for a more natural way of life, customers who avoid certain groups of ingredients or those who are seeking products they like the looks, scent, and performance of. It really does take all kinds!
Where in this wide spectrum do you find yourself?
Until next time, may you happily wade in bubbles & wax.
Beth Byrne
Soaper/Chandler meet-ups and You!
Have you ever attended a gathering or conference of soap and/or candlemakers?
I have. In fact, I recently returned from a state gathering, where my fellow soapers, chandlers and I had a marvelous time. We talked soap, learned new techniques, shared a delicious lunch, bought from each other's garage sales, and generally made it a great day for soapers. It's an event I look forward to each year.
Why do I value this event so much? I can think of many reasons. I get to see the friends I've made at previous gatherings so we can we catch up on our respective lives. I get to meet new people and get their perspectives. We get to talk soap! It's not every day for me that I find someone who appreciates and understands this craft as I do, and I'm sure the same is true for the other attendees.
In addition to these advantages, I have the opportunity to sell off my extras or my "I-bought-this-and-can't-remember-what-to-do-with-it" items, along with buying others' items in the same categories. I have the opportunity to dream big with the raffle prizes, and even to see the wonderful products that our vendor sponsors have sent for our doorprizes and goody bags. I learn new techniques in the demos that other members kindly provide.
What about you? Have you ever attended any kind of soap/candle gathering? From lunch with a few other devotees to the annual HSMG Conference, tell us where you've been and what you find so compelling or enjoyable about the experience. If you haven't had the opportunity or haven't made the effort, think about changing that at first opportunity, even if you have to initiate the project. You'll be glad you did.
Who's next?

MX Unleashed
More fun than the real thing, and you won't die trying.
Outside of the Career mode, you can play any of the tracks you've unlocked in various ways. The Freestyle tracks just pop you in the course, and you can either tool around and throw yourself into trees (we call that practicing) or try any of the Hit, Run or Machine Race goals that you've opened in the Career mode. The Supercross and Nationals tracks let you compete in practice races, ghost races or just drive around them like the Freestyle tracks. While the game isn't online, you're able to play almost any mode in split-screen with a buddy or imaginary friend.
One of the things that Motocross Madness fans will be happy to see return is the penalty for attempting to leave any of the game's Freestyle courses. All of the Freestyle tracks have very large and steep hills as boundaries. You're not supposed to climb them, but Rainbow is ready and willing to let you do so. Only, if you do, you'll be literally thrown thousands of feet across the land, only to land in a crumpled heap on the ground. It's quite funny and I recommend doing this first upon popping the game into your system. Just make sure you're not drinking milk at the time.
Visually, the game looks rather similar to Rainbow's previous land-based console efforts, ATV Offroad Fury 1 and 2. While the game isn't astonishingly gorgeous, it's the amount of what you see and the details therein that count. For starters, the landscapes are huge. The game has a fairly impressive draw distance, letting you see quite a ways into the distance. There's a nice fogging effect, so you'll see things fade in rather smoothly rather than pop into view. There are also tons of trees, foliage, and general "stuff" littering the courses. Everything looks quite nice indeed.
As the freestyle landscapes are huge, and setting up a long run can be paramount to a good session, we're quite happy to see draw distance preferred over less gameplay dependent features like crazy amounts of unnecessary bump-mapping or the like. Even with such a large draw distance, the framerate is rock-solid.
The textures on the Xbox version look somewhat over-filtered, though, which make the terrain textures look rather blurry. There's some bump mapping going on, but since there aren't really any dynamic lights, you don't notice it all that much. There is 1080i support though, which we of course dig.
The most visually appealing thing about the game is how the riders and bikes interact with everything around/underneath them. The bikes' wheels bounce over hills, the shocks compress as this happens and the bikes generally move like they should in real-life. Likewise, the riders bounce and move about quite realistically. There's a certain amount of polish to the whole thing that just reeks of experience. It's unlikely you'll find a more natural looking game in terms of physics anytime soon.
One last highlight that we'll file under the graphics category is your rider's ragdoll physics. Actually, it's probably not correct to call it ragdoll, as that implies a complete limpness of the body after crashing. The mangled bodies in this game actually try and maintain some sort of realistic form to them, meaning that the arms and legs of crash-ees won't flop around haplessly as if attached by strings. Rather, they appear to bend much like human limbs would, arms and legs folding correctly, which make the crashes seem quite a bit more painful than if the riders went completely limp after first flying from the bike. Good stuff.

Here we go....again. Listen "MLH", I am going to give you a lesson on how to interact socially.
First rule of human interaction - do not talk about yourself ALL THE TIME. Be humble. You can genuinely get your story across to people and they will respond positively if you have some humility. Listen as equally as you speak.
Second rule of human interaction - ditch your ego. Now this kind of is like the first rule but its more about not bragging about your perceived accomplishments. In other words, don't be an attention whore.
Third rule of human interaction - Be genuine to others about what they have accomplished and give supportive feedback. And for gods sake don't try and top them.
Its simple! Listen, have humility and be supportive. With ANYONE and EVERYONE. I give you only three because as humans we learn better in three's.
You always come in here guns a blazin' about YOU, who you know, what you think you are and what you have done.
Just stop. Say something like this...."hey yall, I think I may have filmed some ufo's though I am not sure. What do you make of it? All opinions are welcome. You all here at GLP have great insight and it is very much appreciated." "Recently I had my blood tested and it has some anamolies. I really need help understanding what it is some people think I may be. Here is a video of it....I would appreciate anyone who can take the time to watch and give me some feedback. GLP minds are diverse and analytical. Thank you all for your help."
Try it some time.

My oldest, we vaccinated until he was 4 months old...then nothing, until he was 2 years old, and a doctor at his check-up/physical freaked us out and threatened us, so we did some vaccinations just to make him happy.
Our second has never been to the pediatrician...ever. He has been the picture of a healthy child.
We just had an unassisted homebirth with our youngest 3 weeks ago, and I would like to try taking all of them back to get regular WBV checks again, but without the pressure to vaccinate all of them.
I have looked in the other forums and sub-forums, but I don't think anyone lives in my area....Burlington, NC. Can ANYONE help me!???

The only "list" I know of is http://www.askdrsears.com/thevaccine...ly_Doctors.asp
Some of them are selective/delayed friendly but not no vax friendly.
I agree with all above posters. We found our ped through our chiro

Anyhow, I don't know if I would get any good info out of her. NC only has one free-standing birth center, and its an hour away from me...so any peds they could suggest probably would be that far away too...ug! My midwife was fabulous because she is also a pediatrician of sorts...but again, her practice is an hour away. How come this area is so stinkin' lacking in midwives, birth centers, and naturally-minded people!?? Gah! Its so frustrating to me. Its not like NC is super anti-midwife from what I gather, and it seems like any HB midwives would be totally financially stable with all the business they could get from mama's I've heard of who are searching in the area. Right now I only know of 2 HB midwives in this state, and they are over an hour away from me...and then there is a Birth Center an hour away too, but they don't take VBAC's, even though I've had 2 already.
So, no local MW's, no good chiro referals, I guess I'll just have to do some internet surfing! Thanks ladies!
I have an unvaccinated 2 yr old and 5 mo old. I live in a really big city so there are hundreds of doctors. There must be some that would be no vacc friendly. My current pedi hasn't given much problem about it, but I want to switch for other reasons. With my current pedi I would just tell her I am still thinking about it and researching it. Now I am 90% sure I do not want to vax, might consider a few later since we plan to travel to some disease ridden countries overseas.
So what is the best way to go about interviewing a doctor about this issue? The kids only have a limited number of checkups where I can test out new doctors so I am considering just calling their offices and straight out asking if they will accept 2 unvaccinated children who will not be vaccinated. Do you think that is a bad idea? Or is it better to set up an appoinment for a check up?
Good luck!
I switched peds 3 times b/c I was harassed about vaxes. I finally decided to call each doctor (who accepted my ins.) in my area and ask his/her receptionist if the doctor would respect my decision to not vax my 2 girls. I didn't want to waste my time with any more doctors who were pro vax. I lucked out and found the perfect doctor with the first phone call. I told the receptionist I didn't vax and was looking for a doctor who would be ok with that and not harass me about it. She said her kids were vax free also. I even told her she could talk to the doctor and call me back, but she insisted he wouldn't care. She was right. He asked me at the first appt if I would be vaxing my girls and I told him no. He said, "your kids, your decision." He's never brought it up again. He's a DO, not a ped. Good luck with finding a doctor!
Hi! I cant really help...but I live in Burlington and have a 2 year old unvaccinated boy..and I am in the same boat as you...he saw a dr when he was 1 month and he hasnt had anymore visits because Burlington peds say they wont see your child if they are unvaccinated. I want to find him a dr and right now I cannot afford a ND or travel too far. So... I would appreciate any help too!!
We found our ped through MDC, I went to the tribal forums and asked there. It took awhile to get a response, maybe someone might have luck that way too?

Doing Humble Work
For the past two years, I've really whined about not doing the "big stuff" for God. To be a Carmelite (and a sane mother of four) I had to quit a lot of church activities. I quit attending "Women of Prayer" Meetings. I quit the purificator committee. I quit Vacation Bible School and folding plastic bags for the Food Bank. I quit going to Adoration at a regular time and having a predictable Daily Mass schedule.
To rub salt in the wound, I sinned with a bit of spiritual envy last month. To celebrate receiving his red hat my beloved Cardinal passed out "Manifesting the Kingdom of God" to people doing "hidden work" for Christ. On the cover of the Catholic Standard was a picture of a Carmelite from my old church receiving recognition for her work at the Spanish Immigration Center.
I joked with my husband "the surest way to NOT get a Manifesting the Kingdom of God award is to stay at home to better care for your own biological children."
Yeah, envy sucks! It's why God put it on the big "No No list" of the 10 commandments.
So weeks after this wound, God has been planting something different in my heart. Like maybe a big "official" volunteering posts are not in my future.
Today, Jon read our "nun mail" our monthly letter from the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration. On the bottom was a handwritten note "yours is the first picture we've ever received back of the medals!" As in the picture of Baby Tess that I slapped in my Valentine Greeting to the Sisters turned out to be important. That photo was the first time the Sister ever saw a child wearing the miraculous medals that they lovingly hand make for each New Baby Card.
How many hundreds of medals had those dear Sisters passed out over the years? Now, those dear Nuns have a picture of my Tess up in their convent in a place of honor. That photo op was a reward for a hard-working cloistered Sister. (It also means even MORE prayers for my cute Baby Tess.)
With the prompting of the Holy Spirit, I helped make a Nun's Day all all because I had a little extra time on my hands from staying at home, doing my humble work for God.
Mother Teresa reminds us that God has many volunteers for the big, "important" jobs. He lacks cheerful hands for the more "humble" jobs.
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us!

And thank you for reminding me that MY thank you... or recognition of someone else's work... may be the only "attaboy" that person gets in this life.
I got a small dose of that when I was traveling last fall.
We stopped at a rest area and the women who clean it just happened to be in there at the time. The restroom was REALLY clean, and I told them that it was amazing what they had been able to do. That woman was so thankful to hear someone say that!OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I love this story.
The hidden vocations are so sublime.
Please keep writing and reflecting, dear sister in Christ, you speak to me!
Wow, on that medal and picture. So much wow!
And, the hand of God all over your life.
Love your words about envy. So true.
Great Love. Small things.Thanks so much Abigail! I stopped at Adoration briefly yesterday and wished I could have stayed to pray longer, but I needed to get home to my vocation ;-)
It occurred to me to touch the shoulder of the dear older lady I see there all the time and I whispered, "would you kindly pray for a special intention of mine for the rest of your hour?"
She smiled and squeezed my hand and said, "Of course I will my dear!"
Thank you Lord for the Communion of Saints, so I can "reap the benefits" of prayers from older ladies who no longer have little children to prepare dinner for and the Brides of Christ who dedicate their lives to prayer!

Andrii had already seen, from afar, the house which was unlike the others, and had been built, apparently, by an Italian architect: it was constructed of thin red bricks, and had two stories.

At the foot of the staircase sat sentries, one on each side, who with one hand held the halberd standing beside him in a picturesque and symmetrical manner, and with the other supported his drooping head, and in this attitude more resembled statues than living beings.

Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Held for Wounded Warrior's Sanctuary Hall
Story Number: NNS140820-10Release Date: 8/20/2014 3:37:00 PM
By Regina Adams, Naval Facilities Engineering Command Washington Public Affairs
WASHINGTON (NNS) -- A ribbon cutting ceremony was held for the Transient Wounded Warrior Lodge and Parking Structure at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, Aug. 18.
Transient Wounded Warrior Lodge, known as Sanctuary Hall, was built to house wounded warriors while they receive long term medical care.
"We are so pleased to be cutting the ribbon on what will be our nation's newest facility to accommodate such a precious resource, our Wounded Warriors," said Capt. Tony Edmonds, commanding officer for Naval Facilities Engineering Command Washington. "God bless everyone who ever resides in this facility."
The Transient Wounded Warrior Lodge is a 135,000 square foot, multi-story building that consist of 200 rooms and common areas. There are administrative offices, an entertainment area, a cafe and lounge, housekeeping areas, and public restrooms. The facility is fully accessible for the physically disabled.
The five-level, 161,000 square foot parking garage has space for 470 vehicles and is located adjacent to the lodge.
Unique to this facility is the green roof of Wing C, which provides a place for Wounded Warriors to enjoy outdoor televisions, pool tables, foosball table and a putting green.
The facility was designed specifically to encourage interaction among the wounded warriors around the lodge and installation.
"It was absolutely a privilege and honor for us to be entrusted with the planning, design, and construction of this facility for wounded warriors and their families," said Edmonds.
The $62 million contract was awarded as a joint venture contract to DCK and Tetra Tech Torso September, 2011.

A Simple Way To Drive Successful Change
Free registration required
Executive Summary
Effective change is essential for most organizations to stay competitive. Yet most organizations use ad hoc methods (that are difficult to understand and control) to implement change. Consequently the outcome of most changes is uncertain and unpredictable. Guessing what to do and hoping that changes will be effective is not a competitive solution, especially if competitors have better solutions. TASKey has developed a change management solution that uses web and mobile software to facilitate change on a 7x24 global basis.

Staff Parking
Noise of the railway at the side of the hotel. Poor breakfast. Cold room because the warm air did not work well all the night.
Restaurant service is good.
Hotel is old and location is not good.
breakfast oke. bar open till late. good wine. personel very friendly en helpfull.
you need to sleep with windows closed because of noise of train. it was solved by the desk who put on the airconditioning on the wished temperature.
Friendly helpful staff. Transport provided to the airport.
Welcome from staff at the main reception and their help with directions to Verona. Their was a good choice for breakfast too.
pool good. room was good size.
hotel was totally ill equippto handle huge number of guests at breakfast. we had to clear our own space and they did not have nearly enough staff to fill the buffet which was raided every time a small plate of replenishments was brought out. Our room on the 3rd floor was stuffy and faced the railway which was noisy at night. Dinner at restaurant in the evening was not great quality.
Beds were very comfortable, good showers, comfortable temperature with the air conditioning and nice pool area
Staff were a bit mixed, we had a helpful girl who gave us some restaurant recommendations but then our safe had broken in the night and wouldn't stop beeping. It kept me awake from 2am, I tried ringing reception but nobody answered and when I told them what had happened upon checkout the woman wasn't interested at all.
staff were really friendly and helpful, we arrived on a national holiday that meant all food outlets were closed including hotel restaurant, the receptionist ordered us a pizza delivery, fantastic idea.
noisy neighbours with children running around in the corridors, but not hotels fault,
The bar man was my absolute favorite thing about this hotel! He was so excited to see everyone that walked into his bar. FYI: the bar is separate from the hotel and does NOT take cards so bring cash as you aren't able to charge it to your room. If you stay more than one night, it's all good; bar man will let you pay him the next night. Just have some integrity and actually pay him! Breakfast is continental, like most everywhere in Europe, and was decent. The location was great for what we wanted to do. The beds were a little on the firm side. Any longer than the two days we stayed there and I might not have been able to stand upright. The view was of a vineyard and was amazing.
The hotel was right by a main railway and while I don't think the trains ran at night, they were very, very loud when they came by during the day. The Wi-Fi was great if you stayed down in the lobby, restaurant or bar, but once you got to any of the other floors it was nonexistent.
Nice value for money,good parking
Loud train and airport are close to facility

terrible english
i cant tell what the games trying to say because the english is so bad
It was okay
However I have a compliant about the china missions. When I was in air battles, the enemy kept getting the upper hand and overwhelmed me time after time even when my planes were fully upgraded. So I don't know if that's a glitch or if you made the china missions too hard on purpose... oh and by the way, this china mission was on easy mode! So it was impossible to win against Spain. Tone China missions down so they can be won without any losses on EASY!
Are those sprites?
This game works simply because it is so freaking straightforward. For all the tutorial stuff to look at, it really is a game that you can just play casually. You do have to keep up with it, but what matters is that the graphics are really good. The entire style seems a lot like "G.I. Joe" or something, which seems to be an experience you rarely get in Newgrounds games. The explosions are great to look at too. When all you have to do is really press a few buttons, it is easy to form strategy.
Excellent but flaws present
Game mechanism is real good, but some big flaws make it real hard to play with:
-with ships (not boats), when they attack their first unit they stop and never move again, yet continue shooting, thus destroying any of YOUR units that try to advance
-bombers that keep bombing my own base (!?), and bombers that simply do not attack anything
-when loading your saved game, all the bonuses inherent to your country (ex: low cost units for china) are removed. So you get all weakness, but no bonus...
-when going to see your achievements, it attempts (and fails) to connect to whatever server, so the message box covers your unit count
Otherwise it's really entertaining and it keeps addicted (although much more if the bugs were fixed)

Sophus Christian Munk Aars
Sophus Christian Munk Aars (1 October 1841 – 1931) was a Norwegian civil servant and writer.
He was a son of priest and politician Nils Fredrik Julius Aars (1807–1865) and his wife Sofie Elisabeth Stabel.[1] He was a grandson of priest and politician Jens Aars and a first cousin of banker and politician Jens Ludvig Andersen Aars. He was a second cousin of philosopher Kristian Birch-Reichenwald Aars and architect Harald Aars.[2] In 1885 he married Marie Fredrikke Schydtz (1804–1886).[1]
Munk enrolled as a student in 1861, and graduated with the cand.jur. degree in 1868. He was hired as a civil servant in the Norwegian Ministry of the Interior from 1872, and worked there until 1917. He was better known for his several books, having "won himself a name in the literature" of the day, starting with 1886's I skoven ('In the Forest'). Most of his books were about the forest and wildlife.[1]

Okay, perhaps you've heard of this fellow. But he's been under the radar for much of the season, trust me. If you wonder why Miami finished with a second seed despite high expectations, Wade is where to look. He performed splendidly this year (26.37 PER), but through fewer minutes and games. The All-Star shooting guard missed a quarter of the season, and played only 33.2 minutes per contest.

Peaceful Tranquil & beautiful
The Bee Farm cottage was very cozy inside.The bedroom has a beautiful sky window which lets the daylight gradually come into the room. The deck outside the bedroom, is very quiet and peaceful, with the lily pads in a pond right below the deck. It was so enjoyable to sun in the lounge chairs there! The hosts are super accommodating, and enjoyable,and willing to help you in anyway they can. We loved staying here!!
Wonderful, relaxing, private place to stay.
My husband, 6 year old daughter and I, stayed in this cabin for almost four months while we built our own home here on the island. I can't even begin to say how much we enjoyed our stay here. As far as the property goes, it is so private you could walk around outside in your underwear, there's not a single person around. It's very peaceful. Paauilo is a very nice place to stay if you want to get away from noise and the hustle and bustle of more touristy areas at the end of the day. You are only a short drive to great beaches south of Kawaihae, and excellent dining in Waimea. The cabin is adorable and very well maintained with a great floor plan. The owners are extremely helpful on giving information on things to do and are very nice. My daughter spent a lot of time down on their property gardening and feeding chickens with them. My husband and I stayed at another rental in paauilo on our honeymoon a year ago and I can't even say how nice it is to hang out at the beach, go out for dinner, and then drive home to a private retreat like this. I would recommend staying here to anyone who loves the outdoors, beautiful country views, and privacy.

dc.description.abstract | How do Argentina's found grandchildren experience knowing the truth about their biological origins, and how does this influence their identity? Their identification, restitution and reconstruction of identity has been and will continue to be closely linked to Argentina's transitional justice process. We need more knowledge about how victims of political violence experience transitional justice measures. Therefore, one of the purposes of this thesis is to contribute to a more profound understanding of what such processes imply for a society and its individuals through the context-specific study of one particular aspect of a transitional justice process. For all of my informants, getting to know the truth about their biological origins has been experienced as what Giddens (1991) refers to as a fateful moment that would change their lives. Each individual has a unique story, yet, I find that the found grandchildren have all gone through three different phases; identification – restitution – reconstruction of identity. I consider the identification and restitution as events limited in time, whereas I view the reconstruction of identity as an ongoing and continuous process in which each person is trying to restore a sense of coherent identity. |

"Just made this from a leftover spiral ham. It was glazed and already had some sweetness, but I added 1 tablespoon of molasses since I didn't have any maple syrup. I was a little heavy handed on the hot sauce cause we love spicy food and I'm happy to say this is great! I didn't know what to do with so much leftover ham and this is perfect for sn""
