And the 'Dancing With the Stars' Winner Is ...
The big finale featured dancing appearances by Kate Gosselin, Pam Anderson, Niecy Nash and Jake Pavelka. Football star Chad Ochocinco was scheduled to dance, but an injury kept him off the floor.
So, after a season of waltzing around the dance floor, which contestant walked away with the big prize? Find out after the jump. (Spoiler ahead!)
Nicole Scherzinger and partner Derek Hough proved too good to beat, and the pair was named the new 'Dancing With the Stars' champions.
About halfway through the show, Andrews and her partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, were sent home as Lysacek and Scherzinger were named the two finalists. Their goodbye moment was sweet -- Andrews kissed her partner on the cheek and thanked everyone.
After the final dances by the two remaining pairs, Scherzinger's was named the winner, scoring 30 points to Lysacek's 28.

Why watch 4 ugly women who think they are beautiful?

NO Way were Nicole and Derek the best dancers!
I spoke to many, many people who watch the show (I live in a building of 200 and have extended family and friends as they do) and polled them all (as they did) over their votes in the past 6 weeks. Not ONE of the contestants these people voted for are in the finalists.
It may be an unofficial poll, but we all feel something is rotten in Denmark AND at Dancing With The Stars! - Wednesday 26 MayBy Richard
who did they vote for? Kate Gosselin?

with all thats going on in the world today who cares about this crap from hollywood. not me.

It would have been a wonderful show if Kate wasn't there. She gags me.

ever look in the mirror maybe you would gag your self, leave her alone you don't know her , maybe you gag her, people are so freaking idiotic, just by what you see and read in the paper and news you think she is a horrible person grow the he.. up

HOw what a surprise! A "DANCER" won Dancing with the Stars! What a JOKE!
- Wednesday 26 May
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ALL OF YOU! It is a great show; and albeit Nicole did have prior great dancing capabilities, she is and WAS the best dancer. Derek, as a teacher, is awesome.
- Wednesday 26 MayBy kennyHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
The 1st poster here has a great name but no brain. I think any of the 3 finalists could have won .Nicole was the best, but she's a dancer and a singer so it showed right off the bat. But man how about that figure on Edyyta .....hot

What was the last couple of months about? Why even bother...the should have just given her the blasted trophy after the first week. HORRIBLE
- Wednesday 26 MayBy RobHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
I don't think it's fair to put a dancer up against a housewife, a football player, an airline pilot, TV actors, etc. At least the ice skater had experience with jumps and spins, but the rest of the cast didn't stand a chance against Nicole.
- Wednesday 26 MayBy ConnieHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport this
Nicole was good, but so were Evan & Erin! I was kinda of hoping that one of the other 2 would have won since Nicole had a leg up on both of them by already being a dancer. I wasn't surprised that she won, however I was kinda disappointed! Not to mention that Derek has won this 2 or 3 times now, where as the other 2 have never won it!!
- Wednesday 26 MayBy Brenda
Well Julianne, Cheryl and Mark have all won 2 times each as well. Guess there is some thing to be said for a good teacher. I mean look how much Erin improved. Maybe there should be some credit given for that.
- Wednesday 26 MayBy Richard
This was Derek's 2nd win. So, what is your point in saying that the other pros have not won yet? Are they supposed to take turns winning so nobody is sad? Sure, I would love to see Edyta win (besides seeing someone look as great as she does), but the stars she has been partnered with just don't have the skills or potential of the ones who have been finalists. Also, Derek is an incredible choreographer.
- Thursday 27 MayBy ritaHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
The show lost credibility with me last season when Donnie Osmond, who has been dancing since age 4,won. When this season started, they introduced Nicole as a choreographer. Derek has said many times this season, that Nicole is teaching him. Why put her against novices. Makes no sense. However, I do hope Maks and Erin start to date, if they don't already. They look beautiful together.
- Wednesday 26 MayBy lynnHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
I agree with those saying that the playing field should be fair. I have to say a clip was shown on tv of Nicole crying because she missed up and she said I'm a professional I have never made a mistake like that. HMMM!!! If this continues, I'll join a bunch of other people I know of that have quite watching. They need to change the name to Stars Dancing with Stars.
- Wednesday 26 MayBy lHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
Nicole was just a "ringer"- someone who already has tons of dance training/experience so winning was a no-brainer. I would have been more impressed if someone who is NOT a "ringer" had won.

Great Lamp BUT....... Here's the thing so listen up Overstock! I ordered this lamp with the tan shade and brown base. There is another lamp exactly like this one with a maroon/red shade and a black base. What I received in the box was the red shade with a brown base which is nowhere to be found on this site. I LOVE IT! I am not usually excited about a screwed up shipment and I have had a few. But this one I am excited about because the lamp is perfect. : )

Stylish This lamp is very stylish. The lamp shade is made from what appears to be a very high end fabric. There were minor staining imperfections on the lamp base, which only added to it's unique charm. I would highly recommend this table lamp for anyone needing to brighten a dark area. We have received many compliments on the unique shape and color of the lamp shade. When lit, It gives of a soft muted light, perfect for the demilune table and artwork in our living room. Thank you, Overstock, for another unique and afordable item!

Pleasantly Surprised Lamp is more lovely than I expected. It arrived in about 4 days w/o any damage. The thing I'm most happy about is that the shade is a little darker than is pictured. It looks rather light online but is, in fact, a very pretty shade of beige. I'm using it in a family room, but would go equally well in a bedroom or living room.

How to Buy a Lampshade
Lamps are more than just functional pieces; they also contribute to the decor of a room. Their sizes vary, from table lamps to floor lamps, and a large variety of styles are available to suit any home decor. Lampshades are usually the focal point of lamps. They complement the base of the lamp, and they also hide the bulb and diffuse the light. To achieve the best effect with a lampshade, simplicity is the key. Ornate floor and table lamps are best complemented by simple lampshades, while a simple table or floor lamp can support a more decorative lampshade.

End Table Buying Guide
In the world of living room furniture, the sofa and coffee table might be the stars, but your end tables are important parts of the supporting cast. Without end tables, where would you put your lamps? Where would you set your drink? Where would you pile up the last week's worth of newspapers? End tables, also known as console tables, come in many shapes, sizes and styles. Whether you are looking for a traditional end table, round end table or basically any variety, this end table buying guide will show you how to buy end tables that will be just right for your home.

They can also be used to freshen the look of worn or stained carpet in a well-used dining room.
How to Remove Scratches from a Wooden Table
Scratches on wooden dining tables not only present an unsightly appearance; they leave the wood unprotected and open to staining and moisture. Scratches can be slight or deep, and removing each type requires a different method of repair. The finish of your wooden table also plays a part in how to remove the scratches, especially if the scratch is deep.
Tips on Choosing a Sofa Table

To pick the best sofa table for your space, follow these tips.
FAQs about Accent Tables

The right accent table can complement any style and provide an added storage area in even the smallest of spaces. Keep reading for the answers to frequently asked questions about accent tables.
Nightstand Buying Guide
To create a balanced atmosphere in your bedroom, finding the right nightstand is essential. A nightstand is an end table for the bedroom. In almost every case, it stands beside your bed as a useful space for storing and displaying the things any good end table might: a table lamp, an alarm clock, a book or magazine, a pair of glasses, a small plant, a drinking glass, a framed picture. All night stands are built with your basic bedside requirements in mind, but there are important distinctions in nightstand utility and style. Luckily, this nightstand buying guide gives you all the information you need to determine how to buy a nightstand that brings you closer to the bedroom of your dreams.
Best End Tables for Each Room
Although the most popular room for end tables is undoubtedly the living room, you can place these tables in nearly every room in your home. When considering how to fit end tables in the rooms of your home, consider the room decor and whether or not the style of the end table matches your own. Even more basic than the style of end table is its shape, so consider how it will fit into your room. End tables can be square, rectangular, round or oval. Some end tables even nest together. One shape of end table might look best next to a recliner, while another might be perfect next to a sectional sofa. Look carefully at the room in which you will be placing the end tables. Is dark wood or light wood prevalent? Is it a small room or large room? Will the table sit in a corner, against a wall or in the middle of the room? As you can see, end tables are quite flexible. Here are some tips on placing end tables in your home.
Best Coffee Table Materials
When it comes to coffee tables, materials aren't much of an obstacle. Coffee tables have become so popular that they are now made out of pretty much every material used to make furniture. Whether you have a square coffee table or a round coffee table, you can find it in just about any material you like. Next time you are choosing a new accent table, cocktail table, end table or coffee table, you'll have plenty of options. However, some comparison might be helpful. Here are some of the most popular materials used to make coffee tables to help you on your way.
How to Choose a Wood Lathe
Wood lathes are simple machines that allow you to make beautifully symmetrical woodwork. Wood lathes consist of an electric motor, two points, called the "headstock" and the "tailstock," and a chisel or gouge. As the motor turns the piece of wood secured between the headstock and the tailstock, the chisel carves. With a wood lathe in your collection of power tools, you'll be able to make a wide variety of items, including wooden pens, table legs, banisters and even wooden salad bowls. Although lathes are fairly simplistic tools, finding the right lathe for you can take some time and research.
Outdoor Wood Furniture Care Tips
Whether you're enjoying margaritas and watching the sunset or hosting a backyard barbecue, you'll want to make sure your patio table and chairs are looking their best. With the proper care, your wood patio furniture can look great and last longer. Here are a few steps to keep your wood furniture looking its best.

Victoria, Lake
Victoria, Lake
geographical nameDefinition of VICTORIA, LAKE
Victoria, Lake
(Concise Encyclopedia)Largest lake in Africa and chief reservoir of the Nile River, east-central Africa. The southern half lies in Tanzania, the northern half in Uganda; it borders Kenya in the northeast. With an area of 26,828 sq mi (69,484 sq km), it is the second largest freshwater lake in the world (after Lake Superior in North America). It is about 210 mi (337 km) long, 150 mi (240 km) wide, and up to 270 ft (82 m) deep. Though the Kagera River is its largest tributary, the most important source of water for the lake is rainfall. Its only outlet is the Victoria Nile. John Hanning Speke, searching for the source of the Nile in 1858, was the first European to sight it. He named it for Queen Victoria; the Arabs had called it Ukerewe. Henry Morton Stanley circumnavigated it in 1875. It became a reservoir when the water level was raised after completion of Owen Falls Dam (now the Nalubaale Dam) in 1954.

We arrived here for our Bobsled adventure and it was amazing. A little wait time but it was worth it to go down the bobsled track. We didn't get to the cross country skiing but maybe next time!
We arrived just at the end of peak leaf season,but what a glorious place. All of the beauty and surrounding area is simply gorgeous. Definitely would recommend stopping here.
We went just before the peak ended. A lot of leaves had fallen but was still very gorgeous made for beautiful pictures. It was about 4.5 miles all the way around but it was a great hike
This was at peak foliage time and the views were outstanding. Well worth the work to get there. Round trip is 4.4 miles and not too hard an ascent.
Don't miss driving to Mount Van Hoevenberg. If you never ski, it's just a beautiful view and a very special place. We never tire of Lake Placid and the attractions in the area. Thankfully, it is not "touristy."
Nice hike that will take 2-3 hours gradually up a mountain. The view at the top was very beautiful. For us it was the perfect hike that only took half a day.
This hike was moderate - not super difficult but definitely sweat-inducing. Took about 4 hours round trip including a nice break at the summit for a picnic lunch.
My kids did the bobsled run (they thought that was just okay) and we did a horseback ride through the cross country trails there also. Would recommend both.
Take the gondola to the top of the mountain and enjoy the view of the beautiful lakes. The ride up is a bit scary, although it seemed very safe. We had 8 people in one gondola comfortably.
Loved the beautiful views, olympic history, and learned lots of cool information and facts we didn't know before. Good time!

COMPLETE edition of the interactive "choose next panel" comic
4.07 / 5.00 10,804 ViewsFor the last 4 months I have been working on my bachelor project, which is a concept for a game that would help teenagers deal with grief.
What you see above is a small introductory game that just explains the premiss for the game. If you would like to know more about the concept, please go to http://sylvesterhansen.wo rdpress.com
As a couple of people have commented o the same things, I will just explain myself. this project is glitchy as hell, I know. I am not a very skilled programmer, and have focused mainly on the visual part of this project. This game was never intended to be more than a quick demo illustrating the story of a much larger project. I am really happy that so many people have been possitive about the project, though. so thank you for all of the comments
i like it, just release the whole thing soon, the grittyness is awesome
Really liking the style and mood of this project so far. The only thing that seemed slightly off were the background noises. They sounded pretty loud before you even saw what was causing them; maybe you could have them start faded and slowly become louder as you reach the person/animal making the sound.
This looks like a great game in the making. I enjoyed this demo and am really looking forward to the finished project! Good luck.
I've always had a taste for abstract, unusual media, and this precursor for your game is no exception.
I really enjoy the mood you captured with the sound score, and of course the pixelated graphics (as I am old school gamer with an appetite for nostalgia).
After visiting the link you provided I must say that I am still unsure about what goal you're trying to achieve initially, but if any of it includes entertainment and an odd sensation of cerebral stimulation, you have indeed done so for me.
As you stated above, yes the game is glitchy thus far (I basically moonwalked through the game), but with some polishing I have no doubt that this project will be nothing far from awesome.
Please continue doing what you do, as I can't wait to play the final product!
Any idea on when that might be??!!
make them moonwalk by holding left then quickly tapping right without letting go of left!
You wrote this to help teenagers with grief? You might just end up worsening their troubles. The music was good, but having to run past babies and people dying without helping them... eh.

Samsung ATIV Odyssey
Samsung's CES booth was jam-packed with attendees gushing over its latest and greatest smartphones. Among them was the new the ATIV Odyssey, Samsung's first Windows Phone 8 device to launch in the U.S.
In addition to being a rarity given Samsung's Android-dominated smartphone lineup, the new ATIV Odyssey has a 4-inch super AMOLED touch-screen display. It's fired up by a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, has 8 GB of on-board storage and runs a 2,100 mAh battery. A 1.2-megapixel front-facing and 5-megapixel rear-facing camera are also included.
But it's the Windows software running on the new ATIV Oddsessy that speaks louder than its specs. As the world's largest smartphone maker, Samsung's investment in Microsoft's Windows Phone 8 OS could give the software giant the leverage it needs to face rivals Apple and Google head on.

The progressive house the Obama administration has built so far is like the home built of straw in the story of "The Three Little Pigs". It looks okay, but when the Big Bad Wolf comes along he has no trouble blowing it over.
The diversion of federal small business contracts to corporate giants has gone on for over a decade. H.R. 2568 is a deficit neutral and much needed solution to these long standing abuses.
Since the earliest "code of conduct" requirements for supplier factories, labor rights have declined nearly to the vanishing point in production-for-export areas around the world.
We need to end our unrestrained use of oil. Not just foreign oil, not just offshore drilling. All oil. This is not a pipe dream, it is entirely achievable. It takes the proper allocation of priorities and resources to make it happen.

For decades we have engaged in a type of capitalism that is simply unsustainable, an approach to industry that is not only bad in some ethical sense, but also fundamentally impractical in a business sense.
The recent stories about Massey and Talx in the news are each cases of corporate America is using every means it controls against the interests of current or former employees.
Although the two seem like unlikely bedfellows, corporate America's current handling of oil and data are representative of the broader corporate disregard we as consumers face.
We can't assume that companies like BP and Halliburton will spend the time and money to ensure environmental safety, just like we have learned the hard way that Wall Street will not safeguard our life savings.

At Peaceful Spirit, owner and licensed massage therapist Mara Concordia and her staff help patients attain improved wellness through therapies that balance their physical and mental energies. To do so, they consult with each client and create tailored, integrative care plans that may draw upon treatments such as acupuncture, chiropractic care, and spa therapies. Through such customized care, Peaceful Spirit's practitioners have helped patients overcome everyday ailments as well as manage diseases such as Parkinson's and cancer.
They also focus on teaching clients how to heal themselves through classes in Qi Gong, an ancient Chinese healing philosophy that combines simple movements and attentive breathing in order to cleanse the body and cultivate life force—known as qi or chi. In addition to Peaceful Spirit's five locations, therapists can meet patients in their homes or tree houses.
Boasting a BBB rating of A+, Greenspring Rejuvenation?s Johns Hopkins?trained medical director, Dr. Cadoux, boasts 20 years of experience with cosmetic procedures and serves as a diplomat of the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine. Alongside his team of nurses, aestheticians, and laser technicians, Dr. Cadoux keeps the fires of youthful radiance well-stoked with a panoply of pampering technologies, such as the Venus Freeze body-sculpting treatment. His treatments make their way to skin on laser beams and needles, smoothing wrinkles, plumping up dermal areas, and vaporizing dead skin cells or unwanted hair. Fa?ades can also be fortified with non-invasive treatments such as the anti-aging facial, which infuses skin with vitamin C and drops of Jupiter.
A wildly successful alternative to traditional day spas—its more than 300 locations blanket 36 states and half a dozen countries—Planet Beach is a futuristic relaxation station where state-of-the-art machines administer all the spa and tanning services. These friendly automatons sometimes replace familiar treatments, as in the Luminous facial, a light-based service that delivers blemish-busting results similar to those of a conventional facial. But other equipment maps out new spa territory entirely: the Hydro-Derma Fusion chamber moisturizes the whole body with nutrient-rich steam in order to offset the effects of a dry climate or a rear-end collision with a salt truck. Other machines whiten teeth, spray-tan skin, and massage muscles.
Planet Beach operates on a gym-style membership system, meaning that members purchase packages or pay flat monthly rates. As members spend more time at the spa, they get to know the helpful assistants who are always on hand to demonstrate how to use the equipment without activating its ability to cry.
When a migraine threatened Kristina Olivarez's South American travels, a traditional medicine man in Belize relieved her pain, reaffirming Kristina's belief in the power of massage. Although she received formal training in Portland and Tucson, Kristina has also practiced massage since childhood, using her intuition to scope out sore spots in her subjects' bodies. Today, Kristina sets out every morning looking to help bodies repair themselves through massage at Vital Touch. Inside the relaxing confines of Felicia's Salon, Kristina's long, slow strokes send the body into a state of relaxation previously unattainable without being hypnotized by a cheshire cat. During deep-tissue massage, her fingers delve deeper to extricate stiffness and soreness as she places hot stones strategically to dissolve lingering tension. Kristina uses only organic oils that avoid allergens, and treats each massage client to an invigorating scalp treatment.
When he was in middle school, Dr. Richard Casabona was the only one in his school with Dr. in front of his name. But at that time, he also had allergies so debilitating that he couldn't focus in school or play football outside. Noticing that pregame chiropractic care relieved his symptoms and let him tackle with ease, he realized he'd found his calling. Dr. Casabona eventually had the chance to study with some of his field's most knowledgeable professionals—studying he cultivated into his own authority in the field.
He brings that expertise to the practice he's been running since 1989, when the Internet was just a twinkle in the fax machine's eye. Today, his treatments include chiropractic specialties such as the Gonstead and Pettibon techniques. Dr. Casabona's favorite achievement, however, is educating his patients so they can rely on their own intuition and wellness wisdom.
Founder Brianna Arndt dreamed of a place where her fellow citizens checked their stress at the door, engaging only in meditative exercise and relaxing spa treatments. So she got her hands on a 2,400-square-foot studio with new, polished hardwood floors and used her know-how as a registered yoga teacher and massage therapist to open Barefoot Studio. Brianna's business flourished in its first three years, the byproduct of her ability to blend an intimate knowledge of the body's workings into every class, choosing asanas that help relax, heal, or energize clients.
As a result of her success, Barefoot Studio opened a new studio on Oracle Road, giving clients two places to exercise and unwind. In addition to leading yoga classes, Brianna also employs massage to relax tense muscles and beautifies bodies with facials, pedicures, and waxing, proving to mannequins that humans can be perfectly smooth, too.

if the illuminatti wants us
if the illuminatti wants us to fight each other, then i say go ahead. let's tear down rand paul. and put his father on notice too. I say the cult of personality of Alex Jones is all what's left, -that's what i said half a year ago, which was the last time i wrote on this forum. Rand Paul is nothing. They think they have political capital.... but i'd rather have someone who is emotional and screams for this movement.

His actions are traitorous. We can't know his motives.
Go easy on the name calling. Logic speaks more clearly. 1 plus 1 does not equal 4. And someone who endorses Romney, who calls for Sanctions without a Declaration of War, and has actually said he would support ANY candidate nominated by the Republican Party is not an advocate for Liberty. His actions are traitorous. His actions are stupid IF the goal is Liberty. His actions have been at the expense of true liberty, and have damaged his father. Those of us - because of a love for the Paul family - who hesitated to speak out loudly about the danger of Rand Paul when Rand Paul first announced he would support ANY candidate nominated by the Republican Party need to recognize our mistake.

my question
dang, my question would have been this:
What did he see in McCain in 2008 that made him do a protest vote then, but in 2012, he feels that Romney is better somehow so he endorsed him.
My question is why is Romney better than McCain?

Anyone want my Rand Paul shirt?
I will throw it away after today but I will mail it to anyone that wants it. I no longer support Rand Paul and will NEVER contribute to his campaign again. His insulting words on GLEN BECK today have me leaving Rand Paul behind. He is too concerned with kissing Hannidy's butt and Beck's butt. Rand supports drone attacks around the world, wants government intervention in marriage, supports criminalization of drugs, and is real coward in supporting his dad or any libertarian ideas.
Rand is so establishment it is not funny. Remember when he ran for Senate and said he would support Demint for leader? Well that changed too and he is a McConnell supporter

I will take the shirt.
You and many others on the daily paul don't understand what Rand is doing. I know exactly what he is doing. I have seen other people use similar methods. It works very well. One other person in particular didn't change their stance on anything, was a total liberty guy, but worked deep inside the party. Like I said, you don't understand it and many others don't either. It can be a very effective strategy. It is working great for Rand so far.

Rand looking for "commonalities" with Romney
Rand is a fool in the way he is handling this, and a fool to think endorsing Romney early buys him clout for a "real" audit of the fed, or a vp consideration.
Using Rand's logic, Romney could buy lots of clout and legitimize his cause, if he'd simply endorse Obama as President BEFORE the November election, and simply "look for "commonalities" with the liberal agenda.
I guess after 30 years, its time for Ron to go out with a whimper? I guess the "rEVOLution" has turned into evolution?

Rand's Glenn Beck Interview
Rand's interview today with Glenn Beck further infuriated me. Instead of simply asking unhappy supporters to be understanding, Rand responded to "unhappy" supporters by calling them the "smallest amount" and "extremists".
Rand Quote 1:
"the people who are the most unhappy are often the really smallest amount of your supporters.".
Rand Quote 2:
"So, I think really sometimes the extremists on the Internet get more credit than really the entire movement and they shouldn't represent the entire movement."
In my opinion, Rand is just digging the hole deeper and deeper.

Rand Paul is an A-hole
No apologies. He calls me an "extremist" for disagreeing with him, I call him an A-hole for resorting to superficial ad-hominem's.

Compare the two interviews
Rand is now officially a true belt way politician who changes his message completely depending on the nature of the audience.
Rand bashed "unhappy" Liberty supporters behind their backs to appease Glenn Beck and his audience, but delivered a completely different message during for the Wallace interview.
This was one of the things I most admired about Ron, his consistent, honest message regardless of who was listening.
Rand does not live up to the same standard. It is clear now, Rand will choose politics over principle when it is beneficial to his personal career.

Rand Equated Those That Disagree As Violent Types
I found that to be the most despicable thing he said in that interview. I have read many posts here with people expressing their strong disagreement with Rand, but no one was over the top like he said. The response from the core supporters has been overwhelmingly negative & he said it was from a very small minority. Either deception on his part, or being completely isolated/clueless. - - - - He, again, showed how naive he is. Romney earlier in the campaign said that he didnt think focusing on the Fed was important. Romney is a Wallstreet shark, and knows Exactly how the system works. While Rand has done some good things in his first term in the Senate --- he's sounding like a fool and a tool.
On the other hand Ron Paul has done so much for the cause of Liberty over so many decades.

that an outsider reading any number of these threads here on DP could easily come to the conclusion that some could be violent.

Some people will twist things
Some people will twist things any way they want. What happens to the spirit of a people . . . when Strong Disagreement is considered on the border of 'violent' ? They become nothing but easily manipulated 'politically correct' sheep. - - - Of those who disagreed with Rand Paul, (Strongly), no one has said anything over the edge. Name calling is not violence. Did some thin skin types forget, or never learn, - - "Sticks & stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." ? Is this what it means to live in the land of the free, home of the brave ? That is nothing but a way to limit expresssion. If youre a politician, you better be able to take the verbal heat associated with your actions.

When someone rises to power
When someone rises to power based on the principles and support of his father and then betrays his father in the final and most important campaign of his life, it's completely justified to roundly and passionately condemn such a man.
If "an outsider" or the mainstream media don't understand that, that's really not my problem.

Totally agree. This is what people think a Ron Paul world will look like. I can't blame them for not wanting it. People around here have been selfish and vicious in response to Rand's personal decision. So much for the tolerance and love we all preach.

MSM Technique
Same technique the main stream media has been using against Ron Paul supporters.
- Login to post comments
How about addressing the elephant(s) in the room?
Getting real tired of all these Mickey Mouse interviews. If you're not asking questions about Jesse Benton and Trygve Olson, then you're just whitewashing the campaign. Rand seems to be going down a bad path, but it's Benton who is truly a sellout and Olson, well wtf there??? Rands endorsement was just the final straw.
Months ago, Tate, Benton and Fein all went out in public and indicated that they were looking to trade our support for getting Rand on the ticket. I was a Ron supporter who was still on the fence with Rand, so that upset me. Then we had our local campaign coordinater tell us that they were looking for national delegates who might even be willing to vote for Romney. Then one of our delegates (someone who only ever contributed to Rand, not Ron), worked out a plan with Benton (he claims a friendship of sorts) to sell out people running as Ron Paul delegates in an effort to make himself a committee chair, by having the Ron Paulers vote only for Santorum delegates, hoping that those delegates would return the favor and make him the chair. The Rand guy didn't get the chair and he sabotaged a lot of hard working Ron Paul supporters in the process.
It's been nothing but Rand, Rand, Rand ever since Iowa. If Ron didn't want to run anymore, he should have just dropped out. But I hate that I've put my money and time on the line, for someone other than the person I intended to support.

Oh but
you, me, and people like us who've soberly assessed the situation are "extremists" now Rand says.
Isn't that what the MSM has been throwing at us for ages now? Rand's officially been co-opted, after assuring us that that would never happen.
Rand Paul = Bankrupt credibility.

What are these leaves of
What are these leaves of absense supposed to mean? Benton supports these moves. Tate too. And Matt Holdrige is the lying POS scumbag that sold us out in Colorado.
He actually had people follow us around, telling other Ron Paulers that we were running a fake slate on behalf of the Romney campaign (even though it was he who told us he was looking for delegates who would vote for Romney). His official campaign slate only had die-hard, Santorum supporters on it (well known Paul haters, I might add). He claimed he had no idea that we'd be running a grassroots Ron Paul slate in CD 5, even though he was at the meeting where we picked the slate in front of 60 other witnesses.
We still managed to get two alternates, despite his interference, but then he claimed them as his own and also counted the Santorum delegates in the Ron Paul column (so no, we did not win Colorado, that was a lie, at most we got 14). Easily the most crooked, dishonest person I ever met in this movement.

I hear ya
Especially about the interviews. I really resent Rand's painting us who object as people who are sore because he doesn't go along with us 100%. Then he proceeds to use two relatively small issues, hemp and the TSA, as reasons for his endorsement of Romney. It's quite hypocritical. The fact is, he is the one throwing the baby out with the bathwater, not us!

You've got to understand that
You've got to understand that the majority of Paul supporters are not commenting on the Daily Paul. Even on the DP, the majority of people still have their heads on straight about this. So the minority of people on a website which represents a fraction of their support are the ones making threats, name calling, and saying the most viscous things.
Although I disagree with Rand's endorsement, and some things he's said since, I don't think it is ridiculous that he called some of the Paul supporters extreme. Some are extreme. These are the same people who were spitting venom and hate at Judge Napalitano when he politely asked everyone to stop sending hate mail to Fox News after he left his show. I was surprised at the very extreme language used against the Judge. This is what Rand is talking about, and his point should be well taken. It is the truth.
I disagree with Rand about some of the things he's said in the past week, but quite honestly, I've disagreed with some of the things he's said over the past year. However, I still have a great deal of respect for him, and I support him in his fight for liberty. I'm not worried about Ron endorsing Romney, nor should anyone else be.

What threats? I haven't seen any.
And is it really name-calling to identify a man who has sacrificed principle for political gain in the way Rand has? It's true that you're seeing adamant opinions expressed here, but they are justified in the face of Rand Paul's betrayal.

I would qualify things like
I would qualify things like "A-hole" and "evil liar" as name calling. I would think if a Romney guy called a Ron Paul guy an a-hole, it would be classified as name calling.
I guess I haven't seen any threats either... I've just heard other people reference threats. So that is just hear-say and I haven't taken the time to investigate.
I'm not against adamant opinions... but what I've seen here has really been overly viscous.

Compared to Wars, NDAA, and Drones over my head
it's relatively smaller. But yeah, it's still a big issue. But my man's point above is that Rand cherry picks mostly puny issues to "prove" his love of liberty rather than going Nigel Farage on the establishment with a pair of brass balls.

Rand promised to endorse the candidate when he ran in 2008.
Rand promised to endorse the candidate when he ran in 2008. This is the BIGGEST thing many keep missing. He said it in an interview just the other day. He said he would way back then. So the mistake was really made years ago. This should eliminate some of the questions like
why did he do it and why didn't he consult his dad before he did it.
The party made him promise to for his Senate run.
IMHO he made a mistake when he promised to back then.
For now, we will just have to watch him (as we should watch them all)and see what he does.

I am SICK of this endorsement quote from Rand, AND
people twisting it to suit Rand. WE HAVEN'T NOMINATED A CANDIDATE, YET! Do you understand? The convention hasn't even happened. It's NOT OVER. RAND SHOULD HAVE SHUT UP UNTIL SINE DIE AT TAMPA!!! Do you know what Sine Die means?
If he'd never ratted out, we'd all be working on our delegates. Instead, we have this HUGE crash in the road & everyone stopping to look.
Rand could have waited until after the convention & STILL been a good little GOP soldier. Instead, he went RAT, at the worst time. For awhile, it looked like we had a chance in Tampa. Now? Who knows...even Ron won't let us know what he's thinking & give us a dime of direction.

Rand isn't Ron - - Especially on Foreign Entanglements
After giving myself time to think about this, its obvious that Rand is different than his father Ron. Many of us hoped that Rand would take over after his father . . and ignored what we didn't want to recognize. Rand voted for the sanctions against Iran - - recognized as an act of war by Ron Paul. This was a tremendous red flag.
Rand has done many terrific, positive things in his short Senate career, but supporting a neo-con position in relation to matters of war & lives is not acceptable to me. Therefore, Rand isn't someone I would support further. Rand Paul would need to see the light and change his core beliefs regarding war & foreign policy. And, you can't fake it.
Liberty is carried in the hearts and minds of millions of men & women. It does not depend on what a single individual (especially a politician) does. Ron Paul himself said that it never was about him - its about Freedom and the US Constitution and restoring our nation to our stated founding principles. Its about each of us embracing the message of Liberty, educating ourselves, and passing that on to others.

I think Hannity regards Rand Paul with complete disdain. I could hear it in Hannity's voice. Rand got the matter of fact "well-ok" voice not the "buddy-buddy" voice from Hannity. Knowing about all this uproar I think next time Hannity wants to dent Rand Paul over some issue Hannity disagrees with or a future election he'll use this announcement on his own show against Rand saying something like "some saw your actions as a betrayal of the liberty movement and a betrayal of the principles your father holds so dear".
Am I right?

CyberLink PowerDVD 8 review DVD playback on your PC is pretty cut and dried. All new machines come with DVD software, whether it's Windows' own or, more often than not, from CyberLink itself. So why would anyone spend money on a tool that costs more than most DVD players?
CyberLink PowerProducer 5 review TechRadar Pro The chore of editing and burning digital video onto DVDs seems sufficiently off-putting that, for many of us, our hard drives have become video bottlenecks. The new edition of PowerProducer, with a quick-fire, step-by-step interface, aims to make it quick and easy to put your video creations on to disc, so they can be viewed on TV, as nature intended.
CyberLink MediaShow 4 review TechRadar Pro For years, PC users have craved something as intuitive as Apple's iLife suite and as powerful as Adobe Photoshop Elements to share, display and edit photos and videos. There's no shortage of excellent applications, but a one-stop shop has never really made the grade. However, MediaShow 4 gets pretty close.

I cant put into words how bad they are!On the plus side, if you dont mind waiting 4 hours for it to transfer a 700mb movie or the fact that even the Xbox 360 wont pass it as it doesnt meet performance recommendation as a memory card...

Late on a spring night in 1920, five boys cross the Yorkshire dales to the ruins of Fountains Abbey, intent on raising the devil. Instead, they stumble over the devil himself, sitting there watching them. Terrified, they run for their lives, leaving behind a book on alchemy stolen from their schoolmaster. The next morning, a body is discovered in the cloisters of the abbey a man swathed in a hooded cloak and wearing a gas mask.
Scotland Yard dispatches Inspector Rutledge to find out who the man was and why he died in such mysterious circumstances. But the villagers clearly have something to hide. And what does the huge chalk sculpture of a pale horse of the Apocalypse have to do with the crime?

The Coalition of Planets has shattered, with Vulcan, Andor, and Tellar abrogating the treaty. Their pledge to come to the mutual defense of any power that is attacked has been shunted aside. Horrified by how easily the Romulans can seize control of their advanced starships, turning them into weapons, Andor and Tellar have joined Vulcan on the sidelines. Humanity is now the only thing that stands between the Romulan Star Empire and total domination… (plus)

GStar Krait $15.99
A Paul McBeth Signature Disc
GStar is a new softer, more flexible blend of Star plastic, which features an eye-catching pearlescent sheen for a unique look as well.
Here's what Paul had to say about GStar, "I like that GStar is a little softer and more flexible than the original Star Line. I play nearly every day, adding up to tens of thousands of shots. I believe that over time, GStar models will take less of a toll on my fingertips, allowing for stronger and more consistant play. I use the Krait for long turnovers and low ceiling shots. I can throw it with less power and it is still easy to control. It has Destroyer-like speed but turns smoothly like the beast."

At the end of "Paris," a character whose future is uncertain rides in a taxi through the city and glimpses some of the film's other characters going about their lives. He does not know them, but we do, and seeing them so briefly is enough to make the film's point: We are here, we strive, we love, we laugh, we fail, we are sad, sometimes we look at the world and smile for no particular reason.
Here is a film about a group of Parisians. It opens with a sweeping shot of Paris from the atop the Eiffel Tower. The characters don't have interlocking lives; it's not that kind of film. They have parallel lives. The purpose of Cedric Klapisch, the writer-director, is to make a symphonic tribute to the city he loves, and use each character as a movement.
That said, every character has life and depth. It's unusual for an episodic film to involve us so well in individual lives; as the narrative circles through their stories, we're genuinely curious about what will happen next.
The central character is Pierre (Romain Duris), who is a dancer in his 30s told that he has little time left. Only a heart transplant can save him. His sister Elise (Juliette Binoche) brings her two daughters and comes to live with him, and they try to cheer each other. He spends much time standing on his balcony, observing life in the street. She's rebounding from a bad marriage and considers herself finished with men.
We also meet a famous Parisian historian named Roland (Fabrice Luchini), whose lectures are so literate and certain, he seems to be reading from a Teleprompter scrolling in his mind. He is very alone. Well into his 50s, he becomes obsessed with a pretty student and anonymously sends her florid romantic compliments by text. Then he lurks nearby to watch her reading them, Creepy. Meanwhile, he's starring in a TV documentary series about the city.
His younger brother is Philippe, played by Francois Cluzet, the Dustin Hoffman-ish star of "Tell No One" (2006). Phillipe is an architect, a father in waiting, an encourager who senses Roland's discontent. Elise finds herself attracted to Jean (Albert Dupontel), a vendor in one of the many Paris street food markets. Jean is divorced from Caroline (Julie Ferrier), but they're still friendly. Still, they don't seem to have a future.
There are several smaller characters, including a bakery owner (Karin Viard) who has outspoken prejudices about people from any part of France that is not Paris, and yet is open-minded enough to praise a young employee from North Africa who is a reliable worker. I've meet French people like that: not racist, but tactlessly opinionated -- or particular, as they might prefer.
All of these stories are told against the backdrop of Paris, a city Klapisch loves with a passion. He hasn't made a travelogue with beauty shots, however, but set his story in very specific places: streets, a university, cafes, restaurants, dawn at the vast Rungis, the wholesale food market that replaced Les Halles. There is even a scene set in the catacombs, with the bones and skulls of Parisians past neatly stacked behind the professor.
The characters have love, fear it or seek it. Only one has a desperate problem. No one is satisfied.
They have a daily reprieve from illness or death, but never think in those terms -- except for Pierre, who is forced to. They go to work, home again, to their spouses or lovers or empty flats. They move easily through the city, and we are reminded that in Paris, traditionally a city of tiny apartments, the cafes served as living rooms. You're not buying a coffee, you're renting a table, and it's yours for as long as you sit there.
I love Paris in the same way Klapisch does, for the concentration and intensity of its daily life and street theater. A modern place like downtown Houston seems to me an unlovely prospect, all concrete, no shadows. Why do modern corporations envision their headquarters as free-standing tombstones instead of friendly neighbors?
Viewing the film's love affair with the city, I was reminded of another film, "The Cat's Away" (1996). That's the one about the young woman who leaves town and entrusts her cat with a neighboring cat lady. When she returns, this old lady is heartbroken: The cat has run away. The entire neighborhood gets caught up in the search, including a simple-minded fellow who risks his life on rooftops, usually in search of the wrong cat. I looked up the film, and discovered it was by Cedric Klapisch. There you go.
Note: "Paris" also is available for viewing via Video on Demand.
Glenn Kenny tries to provide some calm, reason, and perspective to today's major Oscar nominations.

Capita has been selected by John Lewis to provide its online contact centre. Under the agreement, which is worth £93.5m over five years, Capita will support John Lewis' online growth strategy.
Capita will deliver a digital service, built around John Lewis' customers, that integrates with the full range of customer contact channels.
Capita plc Chief Executive, Andy Parker, said: "The John Lewis brand is synonymous with excellent customer service and brand loyalty. It is only natural that the company wants to use the latest technology and service design methods to deliver an enhanced experience to its customers, and make it even easier for them to engage with the brand.

We appreciate the importance of becoming fully immersed in a company's brand values to ensure that customer experience is at the heart of service delivery."
"The online contact centre will stay in Glasgow, demonstrating Capita's ongoing commitment to investing in Scotland and supporting the growth of the local economy. Capita already employs around 5,000 people in Scotland and we anticipate that this figure will rise by around 2,000 in the next two years."
Following due consultation, approximately 550 employees will transfer from the existing provider to Capita under TUPE.

Christian Bale Lands Steve Jobs Role in Upcoming Sorkin Biopic
A few days ago, rumors began swirling around that Oscar-winning actor Christian Bale was tapped to take on the lead role in Aaron Sorkin's upcoming biopic adaptation of Walter Isaacson's biography "Steve Jobs." I scoffed at the notion. Bale has been in such cerebral sci-fi films as "Equilibrium" and physiological thrillers as "The Machinist." He revitalized the brooding superhero Batman. He was John Conner in "Terminator Salvation."
It is hard to imagine this action film star taking the geek seat as Apple's most beloved CEO, Steve Jobs (although, Tim Cook is really starting to grow on me). But, the facts are in. Screenwriter Aaron Sorkin revealed the news to Bloomberg Television in an interview with Emily Chang.
