Documentary about a man representing himself in a lawsuit?
A friend of mine is trying to remember the name of a documentary they once saw and Google has failed them. I'm forever touting the skill and speed with which the AskMe community solves dilemmas like these, so don't fail me now! Here's what she asked me:
I saw a documentary about a man who was representing himself in a lawsuit or series of lawsuits -- I think the government had filed them against him for sending threatening letters. Something about defending his land and eminent domain... He had a wife that he met in a foreign country. She was a lot younger than him and she moved to the US and married him. They were both chain smokers and used a plastic fork as a cigarette holder. They lived in a trailer that was a mess and full of document boxes of his "research" for his case. And they had a few big dogs.

Help me be awesome and remember a movie title.
Help me help my friend remember the title of a movie. (Or documentary?) It starts out with a voiceover over a dark screen - and the voiceover is interrupted by someone saying that voiceovers are lame (or something) and they should cut it out. And the voiceover-over-dark-screen ends. The movie (or documentary?) then progresses in a similar manner, being "edited" in that way, as they go along. Some well-known actors or director was involved. Also, it may have been filmed by a cast or crew member the same time they were filming some big-budget movie. Er, and that's about all I know.

Everyone is 15 at some point. That's not entirely accurate, I guess. Like, dead babies aren't 15, but is that really how you want to start the day? Nitpicking over dead babies? Come on. Let's just stick with the basic premise: everyone is 15 at some point. Most of us when we are 15 spend the day writing other kids' names on our desks in marker, kids that we don't like, hoping the teacher will see this and think the kids did it themselves and make the kids stay after class and clean all the desks, and then we walk home alone thinking up funnier more clever things to have responded during the day's conversations that we wish we had used but we hadn't thought of them until just now, and then sitting at the kitchen counter putting drops of Frank's hot sauce onto tortilla chips as a snack. You know, the stuff that every 15 year old does. But some people, I guess, when they are 15, invent an early cancer detection system that is both faster, cheaper, and more effective than the current early cancer detection systems and win $75,000 scholarship prizes for their efforts. Just as, like, a different example of what some 15 year olds do besides the thing about the desks and the come backs and the chips.
This kid, if I may remind you, is 15 years old. HEY, HOW'S THINGS? (Via TheDailyWhat.)

Digital history
Digital history is the use of digital media and tools for historical practice, presentation, analysis, and research. It is a branch of the Digital Humanities and an outgrowth of quantitative history, cliometrics, and history and computing. Some of the previous work in digital history includes digital archives, CD-ROMs, online presentations, interactive maps, time-lines, audio files, and virtual worlds. More recent digital history projects focus on creativity, collaboration, and technical innovation, all of which are aspects of Web 2.0. Future work in digital history will likely include projects such as text mining.
Some historians began using computers to develop new research methods in the mid-1960s.[1] The new interest in social history led these historians to ask and answer several kinds of new quantitative questions. Historians turned to computers as they quantified data found in censuses, election returns, city directories, and other records. Through this process, social historians came up with new generalizations about communities and populations. By the late 1970s younger historians turned to cultural studies, but the outpouring of quantitive studies by established scholars continued. Since then, Quantitative history and Cliometrics have been used primarily by historically-minded economists and political scientists. In the late 1980s quantifiers founded The Association for History and Computing. This movement provided some of the impetus for the rise of digital history in the 1990s.[2]
The more recent roots of digital history were in software rather than online networks. In 1982, the Library of Congress embarked on its Optical Disk Pilot Project, which placed text and images from its collection on to laserdiscs and CD-ROMs. The library started offering online exhibits in 1992 when it launched Selected Civil War Photographs. In 1993, Roy Rosenzweig, along with Steve Brier and Josh Brown, produced their award-winning CD-ROM Who Built America? From the Centennial Exposition of 1876 to the Great War of 1914, designed for Apple, Inc that integrated images, text, film and sound clips, displayed in a visual interface that supported a text narrative.[3]
Among the earliest online digital history projects were The Heritage Project of the University of Kansas and medieval historian Dr. Lynn Nelson's World History Index and History Central Catalogue.[4] Another was The Valley of the Shadow, conceived in 1991 by current University of Richmond President Edward L. Ayers, who was then at the University of Virginia. The Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities (IATH) at the University of Virginia adopted the Valley Project and partnered with IBM to collect and transcribe historical sources into digital files. The project collected data related to Augusta County in Virginia and Franklin County in Pennsylvania during the American Civil War. In 1996, William G. Thomas III joined Ayers on the Valley Project. Together, they produced an online article entitled "The Differences Slavery Made: A Close Analysis of Two American Communities," which also appeared in the American Historical Review in 2003 [1]. A CD-ROM also accompanied the Valley Project, published by W. W. Norton and Company in 2000.[5]
Rosenzweig, who died October 11, 2007,[6] founded the Center for History and New Media (CHNM) at George Mason University in 1994. Today, CHNM boasts several digital tools available to historians, such as Zotero and Omeka. In 1997, Ayers and Thomas used the term "digital history" when they proposed and founded the Virginia Center for Digital History (VCDH) at the University of Virginia, the earliest center devoted exclusively to history.[3] Several other institutions promoting digital history include the Center for Humane, Arts, Letters, and Sciences Online (MATRIX) at Michigan State University, Maryland's Institute for Technology in the Humanities, and the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities at the University of Nebraska. In 2004, Emory University launched Southern Spaces, a "peer-reviewed Internet journal and scholarly forum" examining the history of the South.
Notable projects[edit]
The collaborative nature of most digital history endeavors has meant that the discipline has developed primarily at institutions with the resources to sponsor content research and technical innovation. Two of the first centers, George Mason University's Center for History and New Media and the Virginia Center for Digital History at the University of Virginia have been among the leaders in the development of digital history projects and the education of digital historians.
Some of the noteworthy projects emerging from these pioneering centers are The Geography of Slavery, The Texas Slavery Project, and The Countryside Transformed at VCDH and Liberty, Equality, Fraternity: Exploring the French Revolution and The Lost Museum at the CHNM. In each of these projects, mediated archives holding multiple types of sources are combined with digital tools to analyze and illuminate an historical question to a varying degree; this integration of content and tools with analysis is one of the hallmarks of digital history – projects move beyond archives or collections and into scholarly analysis and the use of digital tools to develop that analysis. The differences between the ways projects incorporate these integrations are a measure of the development of the field and point to the ongoing debates over what digital history can and should be.
While many of the projects at VCDH, CHNM, and other university's centers have been geared towards academics and post-secondary education, the University of Victoria (British Columbia), in conjunction with the Université de Sherbrooke and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto, has created as series of projects for all ages, "Great Unsolved Mysteries in Canadian History." Laden with instructional aids, this site asks teachers to introduce students to historical research methods to help them develop analytical skills and a sense of the complexities of their national history. Issues of race, religion, and gender are addressed in carefully constructed modules that cover incidents in Canadian history from Viking exploration through the 1920s. One of the original co-creators of the project, John Lutz has also developed Victoria's Victoria [2] with the University of Victoria and Malaspina University-College.
In addition to Ayers, Thomas, Lutz, and Rosenzweig, numerous other individual scholars work with digital history techniques and have made and/or continue to make important contributions to the field. Robert Darnton's 2000 article, "An Early Information Society: News and the Media in Eighteenth-Century Paris" was supplemented with electronic resources and is an early model of the discussions around digital history and its future in the humanities.[7] One of the first major digital projects to be reviewed by the American Historical Review (AHR) was Philip Ethington's "Los Angeles and the Problem of Urban Historical Knowledge" [3]—a multimedia exploration of changes to Los Angeles' physical profile over the course of several decades. Patrick Manning, Andrew W. Mellon Professor of World History at the University of Pittsburgh, developed the CD-ROM project "Migration in Modern World History, 1500-2000." In the "African Slave Demography Project," Manning created a demographic simulation of the slave trade to show precisely how declined in West and Central Africa between 1730 and 1850 as well as in East Africa between the years 1820 and 1890 due to slavery.[8] Jan Reiff, of UCLA, co-edited the print and online versions of the Encyclopedia of Chicago. Andrew J. Torget, founded the Texas Slavery Project while at VCDH and continues to develop the site as he completes his PhD—likely a model for new digital scholars who will incorporate digital components into larger research agendas.
Another notable project that makes use of digital tools for historical practice is The Quilt Index.[9] As scholars became increasingly interested in women's history, quilts became valuable to study. The Quilt Index is an online collaborative database where quilt owners can upload pictures and data about their quilts. This project was created due to the difficulty of collecting quilts. Firstly, they were in the possession of various institutions, archives, and even civilians. And secondly, they can be too fragile or bulky for physical transport.
Digital Historians[edit]
Jack Dougherty is an Associate Professor and a Director of Educational Studies Program, Cities, Suburbs, and Schools Project at the Trinity College in Connecticut. He received his Bachelor's degree at Swarthmore College in Psychology and his Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin: Madison in the field of Educational Policy. His most current research project is a study of Digital Archiving in the field of History [4]. The most notable book he has published was his first book, the award-winning More Than One Struggle: The Evolution of Black School Reform in Milwaukee. Dougherty's book analyzes the struggle in the United States from the 1930s through present times for African American activists. He is currently a large contributor to the growing field of Digital History with active participation on Twitter, collaborative online history projects, and free-access online publications.
Kristen Nawrotzki is a Professor in the field of Social Sciences at the University of Education in Heidelberg, Germany. She is also a research fellow for the Early Childhood Research Centre, at University of Roehampton in London. As a digital historian, she has done the bulk of her historical writing in the past four years. Her most influential work includes here co-written online book with Jack Dougherty, Writing History in the Digital Age. Nawrotzki's focus as a historian is on the education of preschool age children in the USA and UK in history and the social sciences [5]. She focuses on the elite market for preschools and advanced education for children at a young age.
Digital technology tools powerfully arrange ideas and promote unique analysis for the presentation and access to historical knowledge online. Some tools exist for basic web development, like WYSIWYG HTML-editor Adobe Dreamweaver. Other tools create more interactive digital history, such as Databases, which provide greater capacity for information storage and retrieval in a definable way. Databases with features like Structured Query Language (SQL) and Extensible Markup Language (XML) arrange materials in a formal manner and allow precise searching for keywords, dates, and other data characteristics. The online article "The Differences Slavery Made: A Close Analysis of Two American Communities" used XML for presenting and connecting evidence with detailed historiographical discussions. The Valley of the Shadow project also employed XML to convert all of the archive's letters, diaries, and newspapers for full text searching capabilities.
The Differences Slavery Made also used Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to analyze and understand the spatial arrangement of social structures. For the article, Ayers and Thomas created many new maps through GIS technology to produce detailed images of Augusta and Franklin counties never before possible. GIS and its many components remain helpful for studying history and visualizing change over time.
Creating visualizations of textual elements open new interpretations and new uses of historical data. Text-analysis software like TokenX, developed at the University of Nebraska's Center for Digital Research in the Humanities, generates word-frequency lists and word clouds to illustrate language usage and word significance within historical resources.[7] The Text Analysis Portal for Research (TAPoR) based in Canada has also developed a web portal for experimentation with text analysis tools. On del.icio.us, an online bookmarking and research tool, tag clouds visually depict the frequency and importance of user-generated tags. These tags promote new modes of learning, exploration, research, and communication that foster the production of knowledge in a more efficient manner by elucidating related subjects and making connections based on related information.

My DD is 13 months and has learned not to bite, but just a couple weeks ago she tried again. She usually does this when she is over-tired and acting a bit slap happy. The last time she did it I stopped nursing her, placed her on the floor in our room (we co-sleep) and left the room. I let her cry for probably less than a minute and came back, and she did not try biting again.

Anah does that- she is 16 months. I hold her hand down when she does that and tell her no. I don't mind touching, but the pinch/twist/pull is NOT cool.

Have you tried giving him something to occupy his hands?

Product description
Ex-CIA master assassin Court Gentry has always prided himself on his ability to disappear at will, to fly below the radar and exist in the shadows--to survive as the near-mythical Gray Man. But when he takes revenge upon a former employer who betrayed him, he exposes himself to something he's never had to face before. A killer who is just like him. Code-named Dead Eye, Russell Whitlock is a graduate of the same ultra-secret Autonomous Asset Program that trained and once controlled Gentry. But now, Whitlock is a free agent who has been directed to terminate his fellow student of death. He knows how his target thinks, how he moves, and how he kills. And he knows the best way to do the job is to make Gentry run for his life--right up until the moment Dead Eye finally ends it...

"Seems to me, and correct me with evidence if you think differently, but the Chinese State Capitalist only look after themselves."???
Er, why not present evidence supporting your view to begin with?
If in China the state owns, controls and acts through behemoth SOEs, in the western countries behemoth corporations own, control and act through the state. Of the two, I prefer the first to the second. At least, in China, the state manages and steers its behemoth corporations for what is percieved by the Government to be the good of the country and its people; on the other hand, in the western countries, the behemoth corporations manage and steer the Government for the benefit of the few directors of the corporations.
China is to big too fast, and you expect them now to stop? HA! China Rich, and they are loving it. They won't stop anytime soon. They won't stop because they've sucked, and now that they are getting to the top and getting back onto the horse and they aren't going to get pushed off easily.
Economy plus Mist conjures up the Economist week after week...could do better by diversifying into a Consultancy for Occult Sciences: Astrology ,Palmistry,Numerology...could also engage street performers,professional clowns to promote its self-contradictory world views.
One can learn from a village fool from time to time but the malady of this weekly,Economy-in-Mist,aka,economical with the truth suffers from madness of its own class...global village idiot.
I have just finished a week long visit to the U.S. on business for a privately owned SME I work for and I have to say this Economist article, on the eve of APEC summit in Hawaii where both Mr. Hu and Mr. Obama are expected to attend, is IMO unnecessary or insidiously timed.
(1). The Economist starts this article by lamenting: "Hillary Clinton, America's secretary of state, has warned stridently of the dangers of state capitalism. A Congressional report released on October 26th railed against the unfair advantages enjoyed by state-owned firms and lamented that China is giving them "a more prominent role".
=== Alas, they simply and conveniently forget to mention how the US government has had "unfairly" subsided US's supposedly private industrial and financial institutions in one gulp with huge cash to a partial list of America's top recipients of US "bailout" funds, 2010 (source: ProPublica, as of October 29, 2010):
Recipient Bailout received (in US$)
Fannie Mae---$85.1b
Freddie Mac---$63.1b
Bank of A---$45b
JPMorgan Chase--$25b
Wells Fargo----$25b
Goldman Sachs--$10b
Morgan Stanley--$10b
Other banks---$53b
American Express---$3.4b
What gives then?
(2). Then the article complains that: "but when foreigners such as Coca-Cola try to acquire local firms, they can be blocked (though this week China did approve Yum! Brands' bid to acquire Little Sheep, a Chinese restaurant chain)."
=== The article forgets too to mention it was the protectionism in the US that blocked a Chinese oil company to acquire a US oil firm to begin with. Not only that and only recently, the US government also blatantly blocked the wining bid of an AT&T procurement tender for telecom gears submitted and won by a Chinese manufacturer Hwawei. Talk about the much ballyhooed American idea of free trade and free market?
(3). The article spotted that "China was once littered with small, uneconomic steel firms; SASAC has urged them to merge, creating three "emperors" and five "kings". That, says Mr Williamson,…"
=== This certainly comically demonstrated a lack of understanding of Chinese culture on the part of that comment maker. For the term [three "emperors" and five "kings] is a oft quoted academic historical term in China referring to a period of ruling history prior to 841 BC when Chinese history was becoming to be more well chronically documented in writing since Zhou dynasty.
The term [three "emperors" and five "kings] now is liberally used to depict the top dogs in any business, not to be taken literally necessarily.
(4). The article says: "According to the Congressional report, state-owned firms account for two-fifths of China's non-agricultural GDP."
=== The (US) Congressional report should be duly advised that only 30 years ago, state owned firms accounted for 100% of China's non-agricultural GDP. That said, the speed of reform and opening up on the part of Chinese government has been truly phenomenal.
So fast that some Chinese think it's been a little bit too fast to protect the budding domestic brands and indigenous industries even by WTO standard. But the US firms who already control a large segment of consumer goods supply in China, from cooking oil to toothpastes & soap bars to tampon and diapers, to KFC/ McDonalds/ Starbucks/ Pizza Huts/ Outbacks…, etc., still think China was not "opening up" fast enough. I suppose it would never be fast enough until they own 100% of the Chinese consumer market?
(5). Lastly and the least, the article cites: "In a new book called "China's Regulatory State", Roselyn Hsueh of Temple University documents how, in sectors ranging from telecommunications to textiles, the government has quietly obstructed market forces."
=== There are many Chinese residing and making big contribution and decent living in the west particularly in the US. But a least respectable job, be it at some university or think tank institute however otherwise faculties as professor or researcher, is to be a well paid cheap translator to carry out cherry picking of dirt digging in China to support his/her employer's premise or foregone conclusion that China was no good or up to no good in areas of interest of "attack".
There are great and respected Sinology Chinese scholars in Philadelphia to be sure (at the University of Pennsylvania, e.g.) and they are no cheap translators. But I have heard no "Roselyn Hsueh of Temple University" of such fame in the same city (where Temple U is located). Surely the Economist should quote him (her) with some qualification by the side as to his (her) academic creditability for such book writing.
China play in a way that balances her own interest and counterforce by other countries, in a word, benefit decides everything.
China has been playing unfairly with currency rate manipulation, protectionism and so on. Yes, but please mind that otherwise many of China's industries would be under control of foreign companies, we don't want it just as Americans are cautious about Chinese companies, we will definitely lose in competition if we don't do something to protect our industry, it is just that simple. So when will China act as many many developped countries? It will when it's ready to compete and step into the market of other countries. Here is why many western countries are "ethically legitimate", because they are ready to win, how dare China play on the same table with developed countries when her chips are much less than counterparts? China is not unique to take this approach, most Asian countries had done more or lest what China is doing now, such as currency rate manipulation. I'm not saying it's decent, but it's rational.
Stated owned companies have a counter effect on the domestic economy. China is never an exception. Take Chinamobile for example, the monopoly in telecommunication barely recruit any workers in my city, only those who have relationship can join them and salary is way higher than average. The company my mom works for is busy selling assets under market price to people who have relationship with the chief executive officers, when new officers come, another around of selling begins. State owned is more than just state owned.
News such as "China Telecom and China Unicom are currently under antitrust probe" in some people's eyes may become an example that antitrust authority is working. The fact is, another giant Chinamobile is luring the market long gripped by China Telecom and China Unicom. Many things happen in China is not it's willingness as a whole, but the result of conflict and compromise between groups.
As long as China is a powerful state with a strong economy, the WTO can't expect China to uphold to outsider's standards. China is doing what it believes is best for its economy. Although there may be too much overreaching by SASAC, it doesn't look to be hurting the economy too much. However, I think China must be realistic in its long term goals. IGOs appear to be rising in quantity and power in the world and China cannot continue to play the game on its own. If it resists standards from the WTO and other states, it may one day be on the outside looking in to prosperous trade organizations.
This is a very interesting system and it has brought a good amount of jobs and help to the citizens of China. Though this might not entirely be helpful to its country as the companies have to take care of more and more people and gain less profit.
Just about 30 years ago all firm in China are state controlled, and everyone is dirt poor. Private sector has made major gains. To some degree China is more capitalist than US/EU. And on top of that because Chinese people are more resilient on hardship. So even if there are bubbles stir up by the state capitalism system, China won't default like Greece.
One of the problems that only a handful of countries experience, the U.S. is one, China another, is that they are simply huge in terms of population. These government owned firms might be doing pretty well now, but I doubt that they will be able to be efficiently managed by a public sector that has to deal with over one billion people. This might work in European countries where there are only a few million or tens of millions of people, but China might not be able to remain at the top if it suppresses the free market.
China has made great strides in liberalizing their economy; however, there is obviously some more work to do. China has showed the global community that they are not ready to let go of the reigns of control, and I do not see an organization like SASAC is going to diminish in the near future. China's economy is extremely profitable for the government and changing it to make room for more competition and freedom at the expense of control and possibly money is absolutely out of the question for China. That being said, there are benefits to the consumers, like price control; however, I thing in the long run, the consumers and citizens would be better off without state capitalism.
Is there a level playing field in consumer electronics in Korea with Samsung around? And yet TE is running an article right now claiming Samsung is part of a model that we can learn from. Which is it TE?
State capitalism exists in all Asian countries, the other culprit being S.Korea.
Its the Asian way, sell at a loss until your competitors go bankrupt.
Westerners are too dumb, cheap or blind to see it.
When the bankers were bailed out, was that unfair state support?
When GM was bailed out, was that unfair state support?
When Huawei investments were blocked, was that unfair state support?
When US government backed Lockheed, was that unfair state support?
Nobody will take your talk of privatization seriously if you do not practice it yourself, and if you don't think the above are state support, you need to wake up and see that a state-controlled business and a business that controls the state are really the same thing.
This article really find the problem of state-owned firms. On the one hand the state-owned firm shoulders too many social duty, such as old-age pension,which is burden by goverment in overseas. On the other hand, the state-owned firms rely on goverment's low-rate credit.And most importent , if without goverment's fund, these firm can't profit. When state-owned firm deficit, it make the social duty blamed for the deficit, not their own bad management and uneffecient.
It's been like this for the last ten years, at least, in China. Why are people getting so upset now? Why weren't they upset then? I'm not saying that this consolidation isn't necessary and it's understandable that China wants to build champions in order that their country isn't bought up by foreigners and all of the profits exported abroad. What should have happened though is that as consolidation progressed so too should have market freedom and transparency. China should not have been allowed into the WTO until there were open markets with strong foreign and domestic competition.
P.S. The state-run companies that are profitable are the ones participating in markets that are least free, i.e. they are monopolies, e.g. telecommunications.
we all want to see the result of a government policy. Chinese policy did manage to get their country to become the world second economy in 30 years of reform. western world always try to promote that they have best political system & economical system. Current crisis does show to us their systems is far from perfect.
Just because the western world isn't perfect doesn't mean that it can't criticize China. I really don't understand why this is a constant refrain from supporters of China. Does one need to be perfect before one offers criticism? If not being perfect makes you a hypocrite when you criticize others then nobody would ever be justified to offer criticism. That's a ridiculous position.
The offer of criticism is not the problem. It is the one-dimensionality and inaccuracy of the criticism offered.
China's companies may not be held to the same standard as private companies, but when chinese firms go overseas as mentioned in the last paragraph the free market cannot let offenses slide if private enterprise is to stay competitive. State run firms are supported and controlled by the government, which eliminates many of the market forces that are used to tell a company if it is making a useful product or providing a good service. No matter how much a state run company says it is focused on profits, it will never do that in the similar fashion as a private corporation,thus leading to a negative result that the consumer will have to bear. Equalize the playing field otherwise terms like craftsman ship and efficiency will be a thing of the past.
China does what China does. Nothing can stop her now unless she makes blunders the magnitude the US and her ideological allies have done. She is not about to take lessons from once rich western countries who have damaged themselves irretrievably. China is on a development path that delivered around ten percent annual GDP growth over the last thirty years. This has another 10 to 30 years to run. Maybe then at a lower six to seven percent which is considered a recession for China but is a rate any other country will kill for. Or maybe at a higher rate that the government will have to cool down to dampen inflation and mitigate the cost of living until there is time for other factors to work into the pricing. Aka no panicked markets. There will be many as yet unknown economic disaster that loom ahead. But having control of strategic resources such as fuel, banking finance, telecommunications, shipping, etc. the State therefore enjoys significant state revenues outside the personal and corporate tax base. There is much less need to raise these taxes to cover budget shortfalls (none yet). Again having independent State revenues allows China to think big in infrastructure building and can guarantee the loans required to execute those projects. Each mega-project has its own corporate entity. They are for profit projects that must have a credible cost structure and financing, usually from other SOEs, already in place. Fiascos like SOLYNDRA don't happen.
"sjr8V9jDZX" beat me to using the same points of argument about the Chinese Government. Their fundamental concern is to establish peace and stability in which society can thrive and prosper. It is not about maximizing profits for the elite 1 percent who control most of the wealth in the US. Or forever running a multimillion political popularity contest to be elected and re-elected. You cannot run a country that way.
Which system wins in the end is not a contest between the US and China for both these countries have to live with the institutions they have chosen. Who wins will be the development path the remaining developing countries in the world will adopt. The US is not winning.
According to the Congressional report, state-owned firms account for two-fifths of China's non-agricultural GDP.
------ too exaggerated! The report could have been written by the people,not being to China.Even many so-called state-owned firms(集体企业collective enterprises) are owned by private investors.In the past,a village's or a street's people often opened firms in the name of state-owned firm.In fact,by western standards,they should been on as partnership enterprises only owned by some partners who ofen are some families or many people from a same village or street.

State GOP lawmakers in South Carolina are furious at Governor Mark Sanford over his admitted adulterous affair and associated misuse of state funds and resources. However, the 73 legislators stopped short of forcing the governor's resignation or initiating impeachment proceedings per the procedures set forth in the state constitution.
At a time when Americans may have gotten used to the White House referring to Easter-related celebrations as merely one kind of "Springtime tradition," President Obama has found a religion he apparently cannot praise highly enough: Islam.
At Town Hall meetings throughout August, angry constituents have let members of Congress know that they are alarmed and outraged over the bailouts, runaway spending, and government takeovers of vast swaths of the American economy. Now the Town Halls have taken to the road, as the Tea Party Express rolls across the country on a 35-city tour. The bus tour, which began in Sacramento, will wind up with a Taxpayer March on Washington, D.C., on September 12
Homeless but Not Hopeless
Written by Joe Wolverton, II, J.D."You don't 'get' another shot. You 'take' it!" That was the advice given by E. Jean Carroll, popular advice columnist for the venerable fashion magazine, Elle. She proffered that bit of wisdom to Brianna Karp, a young lady who found herself homeless after being laid off in July 2008 from her $50,000 a year job as an executive assistant at the headquarters of Kelley Blue Book in California.
Town Hall Tempest
Written by Jack KennyThe peasants are revolting — and getting downright ugly about it. That was Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's complaint when she and House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer of Maryland penned a recent op-ed piece for USA Today about opponents of healthcare reform legislation who have been turning out at town hall meetings to voice their objections.

Corgi Dogs can make good pets in Massachusetts if they match your IifestyIe. The Welsh Corgi comprises two distinct breeds, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, which is the larger of the two, and the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, which is more common. Welsh Corgis are some of the healthiest herding dogs out there. Pembroke Welsh Corgis are smart, devoted, and obedient dogs. Pembroke Welsh Corgis are great with good children. Corgis are good guard dogs and can become overprotective unless they are thoroughly socialized as puppies. Corgis are active and energetic and need to be taken on long walks. Corgis can adapt well to apartment life with enough daily exercise.

(Sorry guys. Been a bit busy. Let me read back to see which NPC is on your squad.
EDIT: Got him. Let's begin.
@Grimmjow: You're NOT in the RP. You've never been accepted. Please shut up.)
Zati looks in the direction of his two new squadmates. One is a clutsy bookworm (sorry had to say it again :P), and the other is a wild-looking Inuzuka with a wolf instead of a dog... This is interesting.
He thinks to himself whether the training would start when suddenly fog begins to fill up the area.
Out of the fog steps an unknown entity.
"I am Hanzo Kenji. Your new instructor. I hail from a famous family from a different region." He's modestly built, kind of on the scrawny side. He doesn't wear a Chuunin flak jacket, but rather an interesting black shinobi garb, complemented by a long, dark gray muffler (shinobi scarf). Instead of wearing a hood, he lets his medium-length brown hair, and X-shaped forehead scar be seen freely. He also has two unidentifiable Feng Shui tags attached to his shoulders. He steps back into the fog.
Your characters begin to hear him from all angles. "After you introduce yourselves, we will begin immediately."

Although this still isn't the healthiest of meal choices, chicken nuggets are a favorite among school children and are a little more diet-friendly than patties. Five chicken nuggets, the typical serving size at most schools, are around 250 calories. And with less than half of the sodium found in a chicken patty, your child won't be loaded up on salt either.

St. Vincent's self-titled fourth LP, out 2/25/14, will also be her major label debut. The album is coming not on longtime home 4AD, but via Universal subsidiary Republic/Loma Vista. The first single "Birth In Reverse," which was teased in that tour announcement we posted last month, is now available to stream in full below.
(You can download the song in exchange for an email address here.)
St. Vincent was recorded with Actor/Strange Mercy/Love This Giant producer John Congleton and features percussion from Homer Steinweiss (Dap-Kings) and McKenzie Smith (Midlake). "I knew the groove needed to be paramount," Annie Clark says in the press release." I wanted to make a party record you could play at a funeral."
Over the weekend Clark shared bits of the new St. Vincent logo on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. When you pieced them together, you got the StV motif seen on the album cover above.
A few weeks ago St. Vincent received Smithsonian's 2013 Ingenuity Award in the Performing Arts category. In an interview with the magazine she discussed recording this new album while staying at her mom's house outside of Dallas:
I approach my work as I would a day job. If you're a writer, you have to write. If you're a musician, you have to make music. I wrote a lot of this new record in a shed behind my friend's house in South Austin. I would go out there every morning like I was going to work. I wanted to go someplace to write that wasn't New York. It was February and I wanted to be somewhere warm. When I wrote Strange Mercy, I did something similar in Seattle.
Watch the Ingenuity Awards' video profile of Clark below.
And below is some audience footage of her Love This Giant collaborator David Byrne's speech. He wrote on his blog that he had prepared notes, but abandoned them at the last minute.
Here's the St. Vincent tracklist:
01 "Rattlesnake"
02 "Birth In Reverse"
03 "Prince Johnny"
04 "Huey Newton"
05 "Digital Witness"
06 "I Prefer Your Love"
07 "Regret"
08 "Bring Me Your Loves"
09 "Psychopath"
10 "Every Tear Disappears"
11 "Severed Crossed Fingers"
St. Vincent is out 2/25 via Republic/Loma Vista.

I don't think she has a big enough audience to be superdivisive. It would be better if she made an awesome record that gains her a huge audience, then cuts the superdivisive album. Your thoughts?
I love this vid: St. Vincent just has a great look. Looks cool onstage. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoEIzkpa0P0
Every so often I hear a song, and I thinks, "Golly, this would have made a TITTY of a Strokes song." Thought it with "I Will," thought it again here.
Didn't think it with "50/50."

Kevin Harvick wins pole at Kansas
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP)
It was easy for Kevin Harvick to remember what transpired the last time he sat on the pole.
For one thing, he won the race. For another, he doesn't sit on them very often.
Harvick earned his first pole since September 2006 on Friday when he turned the fastest lap at Kansas Speedway. Harvick knocked Ricky Stenhouse Jr. from the top spot and Jimmie Johnson into the second row for the fourth race in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.
"When you win that few poles, you can remember what happened those particular days," Harvick said. "You know, throughout my career for whatever reason, we haven't qualified well, and we always seem to race better than we qualify."
Harvick, who is fourth in points, was fastest in the early practice before turning a lap of 187.526 mph in qualifying. Stenhouse was next at 187.480, and Johnson was third at 187.162.
It's just the sixth time in 460 races that Harvick has led the field to the green flag, and ends a drought of 254 races without a pole. It's also the first pole for Richard Childress Racing since Clint Bowyer sat on the front in September 2007, also at New Hampshire.
"It's never been really something that honestly we put a lot of effort into to try to figure out what we needed to do," Harvick said. "We've always been able to work by not qualifying well and winning races. It's just kind of been that way."
It certainly helps to start from the front, though, especially this week at Kansas.
The track underwent a repave last year and, combined with the new "multi-zone" tread that Goodyear has brought this weekend, track position figures to be at a premium. Drivers are hopeful of two- and three-lane racing, but Stenhouse said that it will be difficult to pass.
"I think track position is going to be very important," he said. "We were fast here last time, led some laps and got caught by a caution on pit road."
Stenhouse was surprised that it'd been so long since Harvick sat on the pole. After all, the Sprint Cup rookie was still racing on dirt the last time it happened.
"That's a long time. Hopefully, we don't go that long without a pole," Stenhouse said. "And I really wish he still didn't have a pole so we could have one."
Harvick, Stenhouse and Johnson, who is second behind Matt Kenseth in points, were best able to negotiate a brutal crosswind going into Turn 3 that spoiled several promising runs.
"I felt like the lap I ran was a huge pickup and pretty dang solid," Johnson said, "and then Ricky got me and Kevin had a little more left. Solid effort. The conditions were tough to get right with the wind blowing as hard as it is."
The weather is expected to change again for the weekend. A front that's coming through the area on Friday night is expected to send temperatures that reached into the 80s for qualifying into the 60s for the weekend, likely forcing everybody to retool their setups on Saturday.
That could bode well for guys who will start father back in the field.
Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano rounded out the top five. Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start sixth, followed by Kenseth, Paul Menard, Carl Edwards and Denny Hamlin.
Kyle Busch, who is 12 points back of Kenseth in third, will start 18th. Chase contenders Jeff Gordon (14th), Ryan Newman (17th) and Greg Biffle (26th) also struggled with qualifying.
"There's certainly room for improvement," said Gordon, who is tied with Harvick and 39 points behind Kenseth in the standings. "I'm just happy that we picked up from where we were in practice. For these conditions, that's a good thing."
