"I am making a legal argument, [...]"
I'm not asking you to convince me that the Constitution says what you think it says. Maybe it even does. "Alexander Hamilton thought it was a great idea" is not a convincing argument for me here.
I'm asking you to convince me that what it is is the way it should be. The USA pays a huge cost for the amount of private gun ownership it has, relative to other countries. Most gun-related injuries are a) accidents, b) suicide attempts, and c) the result of domestic disputes. Very few gun injuries are at all like the script most gun-owners imagine, of them valiantly protecting their home and their loved ones from burglaries our assaults by criminals. No one on the pro-gun-ownership side of the argument seems willing to concede these clear and demonstrable facts.
I don't believe private gun ownership is deterring tyranny. I don't believe private gun ownership is deterring terrorism. I don't believe gun ownership is deterring a land invasion by a foreign aggressor. I don't believe private gun ownership is deterring illegal immigration. I don't believe private gun ownership is even much deterring garden-variety crime in America.
I do believe private gun ownership is causing an insane amount of injury and death, and distorting our politics in unhealthy ways. As a citizen and a taxpayer, I don't see why I should have to shoulder any part of the cost so that other guys can go out to a gun range on saturdays and shoot up the place, whatever their fantasies or rationalizations may be.
It reminds me about arguments for and against mandatory motorcycle helmet use. No one has convinced me that, even if they are within their rights, that its a very smart thing to do, for the individual or for society collectively.
[...] "Arms" doesn't mean "hunting rifles." It means "arms." [...]
We have to make the laws that are reasonable to our time. The Constitution allowed slavery, for instance, and no vote for women. There are lots of things that we can look at now and say need (or needed) to be changed from the original document, with the perspective of the passing of 200 years.
Make arguments, please, that are really arguments, rather than hiding behind a document. Does it make sense now for individuals to buy and sell full-auto weapons? "Assault rifles"? Flamethrowers? Surface-to-air missles? What are the real distinctions?
I had exactly the same reaction. It seems like an odd omission given "We've worked on this a long long time" (misquoting Mr. Cook here) and the vaunted Design capabilities of Apple.
I can probably just as well get by with the righties version, but I have to say I feel oddly discounted by this. I'm hoping they offer a lefties version in a follow-up announcement.
You'd think he'd have someone to do that for him!
"The state of society is one in which the members have suffered amputation from the trunk, and strut about so many walking monsters -- a good finger, a neck, a stomach, an elbow, but never a man."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson, from his speech "The American Scholar"
What if, instead of delivering a package, it just delivered a pizza? That would be good. There wouldn't have to be any package involved.
I'd eat a pizza that wasn't in a package.
It's possible that the Draper plan could work, but there are lots of risks and uncertainties. Getting individual chipsats onto Europa's surface successfully and functioning is a big uncertainty. That they would have enough power to do some bit of science, and then transmit a result back to orbit successfully, is another. How are the chipsats going to be powered? Your average commercial 9-volt battery is not going to work on the surface of Europa.
The environment on Europa IS very cold and the radiation levels are high. When Juno was sent to Jupiter, all (or most) of the electronics was put inside a giant vault to provide it with some rad shielding. Naked or minimally-shielded chipsats aren't going to fare well. Europa Clipper is not going to orbit Europa at all, but rather Jupiter itself, to avoid the worst of the rad effects.
NASA encourages lots of planning and mission development but often doesn't commit to actually building or executing the missions that seem most innovative because the ratio of risk to expense is too high (look, for instance, at the Titan Mare Explorer.)
But Monroe and Madison did not and could not envision our twenty-first century military. What Madison is stipulating in Federalist 46, explicitly, is a federal army that would be limited in size (e.g. head count) to the degree that, when adding up the number of privately held firearms, the private citizens, constituted together as a militia, would outweigh it. He goes so far as to do the math.
Compare that to the firebombing of Tokyo or Dresden, say. The number of personal firearms is not in any way indicative of superior force. You could have armed every man, woman and child in Dresden with N firearms, and the outcome would have been the same. At this point, Curtis Lemay is already long dead, and military technology has far exceeded his contributions. The US military is developing and testing beam weaponry, autonomous killing drones, all manner of new technologies that private citizens have no access to or knowledge of.
So citizenry bearing personal arms is no longer an effective deterrent to a US or foreign assault. That's my argument and you're free to dispute it, but the intention in the Federalist Papers is clear.
- "And dont give me that BS about how well regulated means regulations, it does not. It means well armed."
Cite, please? Any kind of evidence at all to back this up?
Let me just say, I'm certain that I don't want to have to choose every component of my phone, at any level of granularity less than "the whole phone", and then assemble it, do maintenance on it, troubleshoot why some piece of third-party software isn't working with my particular mix of phone parts.
You're imagining a system where everything 'just works' for a gigantic ecosystem that somehow increases your choices and simultaneously decreases the cost to get exactly the options YOU want. It's not going to happen.
There is a clear difference between being "anti-gun control" and distributing plans and the ability to make guns to every corner of the internet. Maybe he should spend a night in the Winchester House before he gets too blase (too late for that!) about all the people who will be killed with the designs he's propagated.
My perception in having visited Paris, Barcelona, Milan, Grenoble, Firenze is that a fair amount of the road pollution comes not from cars but from Vespas and similar scooters and small-engine motorcycles. Lots of people living within these cities rely on such vehicles, and just judging from my nose, they are big contributors to smog. I realize that it's often the most economical means of getting around for students and other younger people. Also for cities that were laid out before the internal combustion engine was invented, the convenience of a Vespa is hard to overstate. But there seems to be not much interest in engineering them to be very clean.
I'm thinking of a word for a kind of system where, I don't know, someone makes rules for how large chunks of assets are managed, traded, stored. This word would mean that some PEOPLE, some kind of official-sounding types of PEOPLE, would "check up" on these places, these places that handle and store and manage other people's money, or assets, stuff. They would be checking up to make sure that the people who run those places, those people, wouldn't be, knowingly or unknowingly, doing things with other people's money that they shouldn't be doing. Maybe there could be a kind of system, say, where those people doing those things, are encouraged or made to do some things, to prove, that they have the money and things that they are supposed to have, and doing the things, those things that they are supposed to do, and not doing those things that they are not supposed to be doing, to those other people's money, and assets and stuff. And that they're honest, about what they say that they're doing, and that they're not doing. Who would be doing all that checking, and what would that process be, and who would be subject to it. If only there were one simple word for all of that.
We should all be thankful that people in the relevant positions in Ukraine have shown much restraint so far and trusted or hoped that diplomatic and economic means would be brought to bear. Once a shooting war starts in the Ukraine, the casualties will quickly accumulate. There's a large civilian population there, several large cities. The population is very polarized. Oh and Russia is pushing more soldiers, armor, mines, etc into the Crimea by the hour.
"Just start the war already?" Because you are bored? What a horrendous sentiment.
Life is a whim of several billion cells to be you for a while.

Greetings Fellow Plant Lovers
I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico and I'm on a quest for a pink flowering Smoke Tree. Does anyone know where I can get one that won't cost me an arm and a leg? Seems all the ones around Albuquerque have purple blossoms. I'd appreciate any information anyone can give me. I checked at Rowlands and Alameda Nurseries and they only have purple ones. thanks everyone

Hello: I found one at Plants of the South West here in Albuquerque. It's a tiny tot, but is doing well so we are very hopeful that this will turn into a beautiful mature tree. Thanks to all who offered me great advice. Joey |
- Posted by joeygirlz51 7bNM (email@example.com) on Tue, Feb 12, 08 at 21:13
Yes, I got my Smoke Tree. Its turned out to be quite the bush. It has grown so much since I planted it 3 years ago. It is sprawling, but hasn't really shown too many blooms as of yet. I hope this year will be different. With so little water in the area I'm assuming this is the reason. Also the water we have is so mineral laden it is hard on the roots so that too could be a factor. Anyone got any ideas? |
- Posted by joeygirlz51 7bNM (email@example.com) on Thu, Mar 27, 08 at 21:16
Thank you Don, I came to the same conclusion about the immaturity of the plant. Its got a few more years before it will be 6 feet, so my guess it may not show blossoms this year either. Thanks for confirming my suspicions. I always appreciate advice from a fellow Canadian :) |

I have a pink smoke tree and it is dying. I cut the growth from the bottom that looked like water sprouts. could I have killed it from that? |
- Posted by wantonamara 8bTx (My Page) on Sun, Aug 21, 11 at 11:01
We have them growing in a couple of places naturally here in Central Texas but they do like to be a understory tree. The brutal sun is a but much for them. I don't think the mineral laden water would be the issue. We are hard as can be here. Saying that, I have had a hard time getting it started. I grow things on the hard side and it might need more bottom land or a bit more comfortable a spot then I am willing to give it. I see them growing in town all over the place. |

Hi there. I am from Central Illinois and I work with my brother and my Father building log homes. I like to fish and hunt with my Husband and spend time with my little girl in the kitchen. I love trying new recipes and getting a reaction out of the people after they taste it as well as offering recipes and ideas. I get a lot of my recipes from Taste of Home, but a few of my recipes I do like to take credit for!
We eat a lot of meat and potatoes around here. It takes three freezers to keep everything after each deer hunt along with lots of pork and frozen vegetables out of our garden. I would have to say that I enjoy making desserts the most. It's fun to take a couple to family get togethers and watch their reactions. Cooking is actually more of a hobby than work to me. I'm glad that I like it so much because besides carpentry....it is the next thing in line that keeps me busy every day!

"We could have had it all." Well, at this point, Adele you sort of do have it all.
In addition to her Grammys sweep last night (the acclaimed songstress won in all six of her nominated categories, including Record of the Year for "Rolling in the Deep" and Album of the Year for her platinum smash 21), Adele is once again dominating the charts. As of Monday, the Grammy-winning 21 (which has spent fifty weeks on Billboard) topped the iTunes charts, just ahead of Whitney Houston's Greatest Hits album. The late singer's catalog unsurprisingly saw a surge in sales over the weekend after the news of her passing. But Adele (whose previous Grammy-winning album 19 also found its way into the top 10) wasn't the only one to get an iTunes boost. Coldplay, the Civil Wars, and Kelly Clarkson also saw a boost thanks to their Grammy appearances.

CervixInformationThe cervix is the lower end of the womb (uterus). It is at the top of the vagina. It is about 1 inch long. The cervical canal passes through the cervix. It allows blood from a menstrual period and a baby (fetus) to pass from the womb into the vagina. The cervical canal also allows sperm to pass from the vagina into the uterus. Conditions that affect the cervix include:

Look! A Zuccotti Park Wedding For Two OWS Protesters!
By The Stir
Occupy Wall Street campers may have been evicted — or even arrested — last night, but their constant clashes with the New York Police Force won't stop them from continuing to bond over this movement ... or even prevent them from falling in love. Seems like it's a prime spot to do that in Manhattan these days, what with the story about the human megaphone proposal and the other one about the two lovebirds who found one another in the midst of a pepper spray showdown. Now, two more Occupy lovers have met in Zuccotti Park.
Twenty-four-year-old Emery Abdel-Latif and 19-year-old Micha Balon met back in September, while they both were looking for a space in the park to pray. Fast-forward only several weeks later, and they were saying "I do" this past Sunday a.m. in a traditional Muslim wedding in an totally unconventional setting ... right there with all of the Occupy demonstrators in the park. Well, at least it was a swift, cheap way to tie the knot!

AGraphical Approach to Algebra and Trigonometry illustrates how the graph of a function can be used to support the solutions of equations and inequalities involving the function. Beginning with linear functions in Chapter 1, the text uses a four-part process to analyze each type of function, starting first with the graph of the function, then the equation, the associated inequality of that equation, and ending with applications. The text covers all of the topics typically caught in a college algebra course, but with an organization that fosters students' understanding of the interrelationships among graphs, equations, and inequalities.
With the Fifth Edition, the text continues to evolve as it addresses the changing needs of today's students. Included are additional components to build skills, address critical thinking, solve applications, and apply technology to support traditional algebraic solutions, while maintaining its unique table of contents and functions-based approach. A Graphical Approach to Algebra and Trigonometry continues to incorporate an open design, with helpful features and careful explanations of topics.
I've been using this book for my Precalculus class, and recently found out the second half of the book is used for my schools Trigonometry class. As far as it's quality of instruction, the book does a decent job. I've found that no matter how good a text book is, there are just certain parts of mathematics, particularly Algebra, which are hard to learn with out the aid of an instructor. This book, is useful in the sense, that this problem is kept to a minimum.
One of the biggest complaints I do have with the book is it's reliance of putting proofs in, and not labeling them as the simply proofs for the concepts you spend your time working with. There have been more than a few times where I mistook a proof to be an equation I needed to learn and memorize. The charts, and graphs are pretty clear and helpful, and even though there are a few missing problems in the answers section in the back of the book, it's overall a pretty good book.
My recommendation is that if... read more
Using for class - the right addition and exactly what I needed. Price was not excessive and book was in good shape on arrival.
I don't have any commentary on the text. It was nice to be able to purchase it for less than what it is sold for at the school book store.

text: sorry, I'm clearly a newbie, and totally confused. I'm trying to do low carb/ Atkins Induction. I thought I was doing it wrong, with too many carbs so I sort of started over. I lost a bunch of weight at first, but now the scale has halted. I keep losing and gaining the same two pounds. I've also started exercising, swimming 3x a week, and a whole lot of walking. The problem is, I don't know if I can continue with Atkins because I'm exhausted. My boss actually took me off a few classes because she said "it looks like too much for me". She actually sent me home the other day because I looked so tired. I don't want to stop swimming, I'd rather dose up on sugar before I do it or something. Also, I have slightly low blood sugar, which is why my Dr suggested this diet to me. Cutting out the sugar and carbs will mellow out the blood sugar swings, and it has. I don't crave anything anymore, which is a really great feeling, I feel so much more in control. But, I need to stop being so tired, and I don't know what to do. Seriously my vision is rather blurry as I'm typing this. My diet: today, I ate a spinach and ground beef meatball for breakfast with some low carb yogurt. For lunch I had a giant pile of salad mix with some grilled chicken, parmesan cheese and full fat ceasar dressing. I had the same for lunch, and also, because I feel so freakishly exhausted, I ate a bunch of ginger chews to try and up the energy a smidge. Oh, i also had a small coffee with half and half and 2 splenda in it. This is all rather typical, except for the ginger chews. This diet feels so normal for me, but something is so physically wrong. :( ps, I'm the one who posted a few days ago about thinking i was eating too many carbs. Not so sure of it anymore.

[time:00:00:03] Hi, Seventeen. It's Samii Ryan from Seventeen Style Council, and today I'm gonna be showing you some of my favorite items in my closet which are gonna include a bunch of cool tops, shoes, hats, accessories and of course feathers, so stay tuned if you wanna learn or watch what my closet looks like. First, I'm gonna show you guys some of my favorite pairs of shoes that I have, and my favorite shoe designer right now is Jeffrey Campbell and I have a bunch of [time:00:00:30] shoes by him and I think they are just fabulous, so these are pair that I really like. Now, I also have these Jeffrey Campbell's wedge, if you guys follow my blog which is samiiryan.com or bysamiiryan.tumblr.com you would see that I wear these all the time, you can see how scuffed out they are because they are put to good use. The last pair that I love for this summer are these Jeffrey Campbell's again, and I just like the colors because I'm really into nice earthy tones, as [time:00:01:00] you see I'm wearing olive greens, some grays, browns and these are brown, olive green and gold which I really like. Now, I'm gonna show you guys some of my favorite items in my closet and you could see I have two of them here because I have a lot of clothes. So, I'm just gonna be showing you some of my favorite tops, sweaters and what-not. So, the first thing that I really, really like in my closet, well this kind of summer/spring I'm really into chiffon and I love lose weight tops that you could wear with high-waisted jeans, [time:00:01:30] shorts so I got this one from TJ Maxx and I love it because it has stars, it's a nice lightweight fabric that you're not gonna be sweating in. The next one I got from Forever 21, it looks like this, it's a nice teal and I like this color a lot because I don't know, I just like this color, teal is always kind of like an eye-popping color and the fabric is great; it's chiffon, it's kind of like a see-through and you wear it with a nice bandeau bra or something like that. [time:00:02:00] So, the last chiffon top that I have, this is actually from the Salvation Army and I got it, so it's a huge flowy top and I kind of just wear a nude cami under it and I wore a hot with some accessories to kind of doll it up, but these are so much fun for the summer. Another thing that I really like about my closet is that I have a lot of cover-ups and shirts that I like to layer so I got this top at Forever 21 and I like it because [time:00:02:30] it's floral, it looks very kind of [unknown] which I like. This top is from Express and this is a nice purple velvet top, you could wear it as a regular t-shirt or a cover-up, and you could get this exact top on my vintage shop which is shopdeserted.com. Next is this awesome top that I got at the Salvation Army, [unknown] it has this [unknown] because it's so cute and I love, it's all handmade which I really like. [time:00:03:00] It's super vintage and Native American looking and I really dig it. So, I also have a lot of purses, and I have this really cute purse from Vans, I like it because the fringe is super cute, it's a long purse that you could just throw over your shoulder which is really convenient instead of having a big clunky purse that you have to carry around. The bag that I'm carrying currently is this purse, it's a vintage Chanel that I got from my grandma. [time:00:03:30] I think it's really cute because it's black and I wear it with everything because it matches everything. And this is a White Arrow jacket and I added some silver studs with cheetah print, some, this nice sequiny fabric as you can see it in the light, on the back it has a nice cheetah print across with studs lining it. So, this is another one of my favorites, I wear this a lot. So, that is a little bit of my closet, I love oversized things, I love [time:00:04:00] neutral colors, I love feathers, I love hats, accessories, anything that you could kind of doll up with simple outfit I'm totally into. Shoes, I'm a big shoe gal, I'm like the Carrie Bradshaw, I'm obsesses with shoes. So, thank you guys for watching and I hope you guys enjoyed my closet.

Like Mae West, the stock market seems to believe that too much of a good thing can be wonderful. Extraordinary central-bank support has delivered us in four short years from the brink of depression to new stock-market highs. Yet there are those who hope our Federal Reserve will keep printing money with crisis-era urgency, preferably indefinitely.
The Fed has vowed to coddle us until unemployment falls below 6.5%, but new, noisy stock-market highs make it harder to justify printing money like it's still 2009. "It wouldn't surprise us to see the Fed change its tone toward the end of this year, or more actively in 2014," says Tim Leach, chief investment officer at U.S. Bank Wealth Management. Other money managers say we're nearing the sixth or seventh inning of central-bank benevolence.
A shift from exceptionally loose monetary policy would rattle the market, but it might not prove all that debilitating. For a start, any change will come at a glacial, well-telegraphed pace. And while the Fed tripled its balance sheet, not all that money gushed through to the real economy—one reason why inflation is just 2%—as banks funneled the money to mend their balance sheets, corporations hoarded cash, and Americans paid off loans and saved more.
Between 1960 and 1999, ratcheting up the supply of money often directly lifted stock prices. In the 1970s, for instance, stocks' annual returns were 70% correlated to the growth in money supply. But that link has recently broken down: year-over-year growth in money supply slowed in 2009 and 2012, but stocks rallied in both of those years. "The stock market may fare much better than most expect, as the Fed begins to normalize monetary policy," says James Paulsen, Wells Capital Management's chief investment strategist. After all, what spooks investors these days isn't inflation or runaway growth but deflation, and a less anxious Fed signals that the deflation threat is receding.
Already, we're on firmer footing. The Standard & Poor's 500 was at 1469 just this January—the same level where it began this century. Yet earnings and dividends have doubled in the 13 years since, slashing the market's valuation from 30 to 14.7 times what companies earned in the preceding 12 months. Household net worth has repaired with firmer real estate and rallying portfolios, and home building, auto sales, and state tax collections all are improving. Unfortunately—or it is fortunately?—gross-domestic-product growth remains wan enough to keep monetary policy loose.
Many investors also remain underinvested in stocks, although margin debt is climbing, and bearish bets have shrunk to a six-year low. Two of the year's three best sectors—both with gains topping 10%—are health care and consumer staples, another sign that stock buyers remain defensive.
Meanwhile, political impasse has deferred—but not destroyed—economic growth. "Despite uncertain fiscal policy, business confidence is off the lows, and investment is accelerating, if new orders are any indication," notes Sean Darby, Jefferies' chief global equity strategist. Most sectors are using more of their capacity than a year ago, notably electrical equipment, autos, and mining. Business lending is increasing, and Darby expects rising capital expenditures to benefit machinery, truck makers, chip equipment, and factory construction.
Alas, a sustained, secular bull market—one robust enough to withstand economic cycles—remains elusive. The 1982-to-2000 bull run, which was interrupted but not stopped by the 1987 crash, began only after deregulation, loosened labor unions, and grim interest-rate hikes had choked off inflation. "Ultimately, it was the shift from short-term fixes to the righting of long-term imbalances that paved the way for a new secular trend," says Jack Ablin, BMO Private Bank's chief investment officer. Yet despite two grievous recessions since 2000, the government continues to attack our fiscal and debt imbalances "with a putty knife and plaster."
Ablin thinks stocks "can keep going until we run out of short-term policy tools," or until the Fed gets nervous that it's perpetuating an equity bubble. But a decades-long, secular bull will only coincide with "a willingness to tackle the politically unpalatable," he says. "Since politics is oriented toward the short term, the difficult choices will likely be forced on lawmakers by the markets." Tough choices rarely occur when we're celebrating new highs, but another leg down is a different matter.
FINDING TOO MUCH OIL and gas under our rocks has been wonderful for the local economy, but it's straining existing infrastructure and transport (see "Climb Aboard the Oil Train"). That's one reason that pressure is mounting on the Obama administration to allow the 1,179-mile, cross-border Keystone XL pipeline that will link Alberta, Canada, to Steele City, Neb., and the rest of the Keystone network.
Daniel Clifton, Strategas Research's policy analyst, thinks there's a better than 50% chance the pipeline will be approved by late summer, despite environmental objections. If so, this leg could begin operation in late 2015. Better access to Canada's oil sands and crude oil extracted in the Bakken shale will benefit producers, as well as Gulf Coast refiners. Clifton also scoured lobbying disclosure reports for companies pushing hardest for this pipeline.

I feel as though my boyfriend is a thorn in my side, I need to pull it out but I dread for the bleeding yet I ache for the day I am stitched up and whole again.
There's this intense firey rage burning within the pits of my soul. I know what it is, yet I don't know how nor do I want to put it out. It's this pure injustice of this world, that sickens me to my core.
I hate my parents, they disgust me. I hate them for what they have done.
I resent my boyfriend, despite the good he has shown me.
The End.
So I moved out of home :)
Probs a good thing so mum can get healthy...
Well I'm so much in love with jake! He's the cutest and so what if he's a drug dealer! I'm happy :) It still irritates me he slept with a prostitute but ohwell we can't all be perfect! I still haven't had sex with him but :)
He makes me so happy I feel so lucky to have someone like him in my life :)
He always gets me things and listens to me and understands and makes me happy when I'm sad :) I think we will last a while :)
And yeah :) a lot of smiley faces in this post haha... What's news with all of ya??
Yeah... I got a call from her number and it was a police officer he said my mother drank about half a bottle of Southern comfort, took twenty five sleeping tablets and was gassing herself with the car on in the garage.... She was talking to her friend and the friend got the idea mum was going to hurt herself so she called the police thank god. She was found unconscious with vomit. Her heart rate was decreasing dramatically and everryone was worried.. But she's ok now I guess.... She still wants to die. She's going to a psych ward.
I don't even know who I am...
To all these people I'm someone different. To my family I'm the perfect Christian girl to my boyfriend I'm the innocent bad ass girl that's up for fun shit and likes to take drugs to my bestfriend I'm
I just want it to end. I just want an escape, just to leave this place, just to one day pack up all my things, buy a plane ticket and get the hell out and never return.
No one understands me. Hell, I don't even understand myself. This is terribly selfish of me I know, theres starving kids in Africa dying and here I am complaining about my miserable life, well I suppose I wish I was in Africa, because to me it would be better than waking up everday to a world full of all these pretencious people that dont give a damn about anyone.
It's my escape.
Where I can leave reality and be completely honet and write down all my thoughts.
Its beautiful, it's serene.. it's Oasis :)
Just a note:
Jake* I swear to God, if you ever come across this journal, I will resent you for the rest of my life.
The things I want:
Jake to stop dealing and doing drugs.
I WISH jake was a virgin.
I want him to get a qualification and be somebody not some no hoper bumming around without any job or qualification or anything.
Fuck, i'm a bitch.
How does he put up with me...
My boyfriend doesnt think I love him and to be quite fair, I don't know how to respond when he says comments like those.
What is it?
Do I like being with him? Yes
Do I like kissing him? Yes
Do I care about him yes?
Do I get butterflies in my stomach when I see him? No
You know what I think is a joke, how in this day and age people see it ethical to kill a life of a potential child, and quite ethical to kill a human being and see it as justice, yet it is unethical to let gay people marriage?
What a joke..
Also has anyone seen the documnetary "Aileen Wuornos: The Selling Of A Serial Killer" by Nick Broomfield? It's quite good I recommend it.
Clearly and insane woman, yet she is sentanced to death for it.
Human life is such a precious gift and it's such a tragedy to see it taken away in such acts of brutality...
I hate to whinge and complain, but I am so stupid. I fell for the wrong guy, I let myself be with the wrong guy, and am still letting myself be with the wrong guy.
Hes lied to me once.
He takes drugs.
He steals.
He sells drugs.
Hes not going far in life.
He doesnt have a job.
Constantly tells me I dont influence him in anyway shape or form to give up drugs or anything else for that matter.
He's sexually immoral. Yesterday he told me, he had a dream he was about to fuck his mates sister but as she bent over he woke up shattered.
Why am I still in love with this person?
I would like to say thank you to this lovely community :)
You guys are the best, let me rant on about my constant bullshit and give me your honest thoughts :)
I love you all my gay friends!
And I would also like to say thank you, for I guess showing me that I was such a naive and arrogant person to think differently of people that arent straight, cause you guys are beautiful :)
So thanks for showing me :)
So my boyfriend..
He stole 240$ worth of merchandise from the shops the other day, absoutely digusting if you ask me.
I cracked the shits and donated 250$ worth of my own money to a charity.
Today I won 330$ from the casino.
And im fighting with my boyfriend...
Hows life for all of you?
So everyones been asking what jakes transgression is.
Well he's a drug dealer he sells XTC.
I broke it off with him, and then he promised me he wouldnt do it anymore.
He then broke that promise, and when asked he blatanly lied and denied it.
He then asked for another chance, I waited for a day until i gave my answer.
They might for a bit, but they always end up going back to their orginal roots, its quite sad actually isn't it?
Needless to say Jake didnt change... He started doing his bad things again and I found out.
I said I didnt want to see him again.
He says give him one last chance?
Should I give him it even though he broke his promise to me?
:( Life sucks.

My horse barn has been renovated to comfortably accommodate 10 dogs and 2 acres are fenced off to allow each and every guest to run free and enjoy!
Guests of Buzzy's Bark-N-Run start the day at 7:00 A.M. and with the exception of breakfast and lunch breaks are allowed to stay outside until 6:00 P.M. Of course some dog's need more rest, especially in the warmer months, so I watch and cater to each guests personal needs. Usually they're so at home they walk to the barn door and let me know it's time for a nap.
Pets who really just prefer to hang in and chew a bone or toy will be allowed the freedom to do so as well.
When Guests tire playing they'll relax in one of the 5 custom 10' x 10' suites. Each suite is designed for two guests, furnished with crates and fleece beds.
Buzzy's Bark-N-Run dog camp is more of a home away from home. Limiting the number of boarders to 10 allows me to treat each pet like family. As the owner and only employee of Buzzy's Bark-N-Run dog camp, I will personally care for every guest. Through observation and with the help of the pet owners I will learn everything possible about each guest and customize visits based on the individual.
Because it's important that every guest has the best possible time, with zero stress, I do ask to meet every dog before I accept a reservation. Tours are welcome by appointment only.
In an effort to make boarding your pet more convenient a taxi service is also provided!!

Quito eats? Foodie tours? Cuy?
- 10
- Follow
Seeking recommendations for lunchs and dinners in Quito as well as foodie experiences such as tours, markets, and shops. I want to try cuy. I'd love to find great Ecuadorean chocolate.
I've seen the posts suggesting Zazu and Alma Cucina but that's not exactly what I'm looking for. I'm interested in more traditional Ecuadorean cuisine. Doesn't have to be high end.
I'll be there in late December and dining solo.
Let's see...
Markets: I think the Santa Clara market is your best bet. Good for meandering and also has some pretty solid options in the "food court" area.
Chocolate: Kallari. You're bound to have Pacari and Republica del Cacao shoved in your face, but while they may have the best marketing, Kallari has the best chocolate. They have a café/store in La Mariscal, but you can also find their bars in the chocolate section at Megamaxi.
Stores: Ecuador Gourmet in La Mariscal; El Cordobés on Gaspar de Villarroel is the best carnicería in the city; Zucca is a good Italian specialty shop near the Plaza Argentina; Warmi has great locally-made sauces, jams, honey, etc. at their store between Gonzalez Suárez and Guapulo
Eats: The above-mentioned Warmi has excellent tasting-menus for lunch every day and for dinner on Friday and Saturday. Call ahead.
Beyond that, the best Ecuadorian cuisine (Zazu and Alma aren't Ecuadorian anyway) can be found at:
Estragón (La Floresta)
La Ronda (the restaurant)
La Ronda (the street - lots of little cafés with live music)
Pim's (Panecillo and Itchimbía locations have the best views)
Theatrum (on the fancy side, but worth it for the Octopus alone)There are many better restaurants in Quito, but none of them are Ecuadorian. I'd recommend walking around the Old City, finding the best looking/smelling rotisserie chicken in the window of one of the local places, and lunching there.
The only "must" of the restaurants above is Warmi. Beyond that, the best Ecuadorian food I've found here has been out in the country. In general be sure to try Locro de Papas (a thick potato soup), llapingachos, ceviche, and the rotisserie chicken.
Also, don't eat cuy in Quito. Nobody except tourists eats it in the city. If you want the real thing, leave the city and try it in Calderón or Sangolquí.
re: SailingNomad
Thank you.
I am trying to find contact information for Warmi as it is not a restaurant known to my hotel. Do you have any contact information?
Leaving for Quito on Thursday and would greatly appreciate any recommendations. I will be sure to post back on my experience since Quito thread is thin.
re: SArAHinNE
Here you are: http://www.facebook.com/warmi.artesal
I agree with Pelana's recs as well, but as I've mentioned Zazu and Alma are not Ecuadorian restaurants. Warmi is as Ecuadorian as it gets, and it's delicious. Phelana, if you haven't been there you should check it out.
re: SailingNomad
Thank you! We are looking for Ecuadorian and can't wait to get in touch with Warmi. But Zazu and Alma also on list of possible places to try. I will report back. Thanks!
re: SArAHinNE
I don't eat meat so did not eat Guinea pig..we did have ceviche and loved the bizcocho cookies..yumm..all purchased in Cayambe City. It was about 1 hour or so from Quito.

re: SArAHinNE
IMHO, the best Ecuadorean chocolate IMHO is Pacari. We went directly to the corporate office to shop, right in Quito. AMAZING stuff..the lemongrass was sublime. My cousin is addicted to the stuff..
ECUADOR : 593-2-3230-270/600-1004 /2529-714 Ext. 105 firstname.lastname@example.com
re: phelana
Yes, Pacari is pretty good, but it sounds to me like you didn't even try the other chocolates which makes we wonder how you're able to peg Pacari as the "best Ecuadorian chocolate"?
The reality is that Pacari is a corporate ripoff of Kallari. Their chocolate is solid, but not amazing, and they sink way more money into marketing than they do into community development and sustainability.
Kallari, meanwhile, is a cooperative wholly owned and operated by Kichwa farmers in the Amazon (850 families are involved in the cooperative). In other words, it makes the term "fair trade" totally irrelevant - no "trade" to be had when the farmers own the business in the first place. They produce award-winning organic, single-origin chocolate that is some of the best in the world (not a joke, look it up). Check out this article in the New York Times: http://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com/20...
re: SailingNomad
Wow, thanks for the rec on Kallari, Am off to online shop. We did try various types of Ecuadorian chocolate but I am by no means a connoisseur as you are. I appreciate the tip, :)
P.S I just ordered some off of Amazon. New Leaf sells it as well. :)

Thursday, August 07 12:12:02
The European Consumer Centre in Ireland today warned online shoppers that it has received numerous complaints about rogue fashion retail outlets on the Web.
The consumer watchdog said it has received a number of complaints about rogue dress sites over the summer, with debs seeking dresses for the big event a particular target.
In many cases, problems arose because the website turned out not to be based in the country in which it was purporting to do business.
Such websites tended to use a domain registered in a certain European country and marketed items to consumers based within the EU. However, in many instances, the business was not operating out of a physical address in that country.
In some cases, traders were found to be operating from outside the EU entirely. This can lead to difficulties as consumers often face long delays in delivery and may be left disappointed if their order does not arrive in time for the special occasion. In addition, European consumer rights may not apply to purchases of items from outside the EU, causing further difficulty for those seeking redress.
ECC Ireland said it strongly advises consumers to thoroughly research a trader when shopping online for special occasions.
"It is important to be aware that a website which uses a domain address associated with a certain country may not necessarily be based in that country. It is advisable to check that the trader provides full contact details on their website and also to conduct an internet search for any further information that may be available. This may help to turn up any negative feedback left by other consumers," it said.
Consumers are further encouraged to be cautious of any offers advertising expensive or designer garments at vastly reduced prices. In many instances, where an offer seems too good to be true, it is.

If you wanted to grow plants for therapeutic purposes you would choose a place that has an abundance of pure air and water. A place where there are more wild animals than people and more square miles of rivers and forest than square miles of asphalt and concrete.
Star Valley is one of the most beautiful and unspoiled places on earth. With a strong agricultural heritage the area contiues to be a haven from the polutants that is so common in many of our modern day environs. Our growing season is not very long so the plants must get down to business. They don't seem to mind.
The warm Wyoming sunshine works it's magic and the plants eagerly produce many of the raw ingredients we use in our herbal products. Of course we maintain the organic standards used from the beginning.
With summer approaching it is time to prepare for the great outdoors by stocking up on some of our all natural Outdoor Insect Oil. It is made of a combination of pure plant oils to repel mosquitoes, gnats, fleas and other flies. It is safe for children two and older and works on your pets as well.

EIther the temperature or the time are way off in this recipe. After 45 minutes my milk had a hard, burnt crust on it. The "Cook from Florida" below suggests that the "Cook from Atlanta may have had this same problem because of not putting the milk in the water bath. I assure you that I put mine in a water bath. SOmething is off and I'm surprised noone else has noted it.
I made this wonderful recipe for my family a couple of times...then I started to substitute red wine in lieu of rum. This is a combination better known as "Cajeta Envinada", a popular sweet sauce that it is used to top Toasted French Bread, as well as fruit, ice cream too, of course. Enjoy. Delicioso!!!!
It is impressive that you North Americans still have no commercial dulce de leche available. Anyway, this recipe is fantastic.
I make my dulce the leche in a way it is done all over South America. Put the can of sweetened condensed milk (unopened) in a pressure cooker, fill with water to cover the can. Cover the pressure cooker, set at high heat, when the little thing on top starts hissing really loud, lower the temperature to medium so that is kind of just hisses slowly and after half an hour, turn off. When completely cold, open the pressure cooker, take out can, open and voila! dulce de leche! Make sure you open the can carefully because it might splatter if it is still hot.
It's fantastic! It's also so easy. I make this all the time serving it over a premium vanilla ice cream for guests. I use dark rum and add a little bit more for taste. Keeps in the fridge for awhile, but better fresh. Serve it warm!
I am going to make this today, however, I cook mine a little differently. I had to do a search on the recipe as I couldn't remember (it's been TOO LONG) if I was supposed to use Evaporated or Sweetened Condenced Milk. I put mine on the stovetop in a saucepan covered with water, bring to a boil, cover, reducing heat. It cooks longer (3 hrs) but easier to keep an eye on the water level. This is addictive stuff w/o icecream!!
Your cook from Atlanta must not have read the directions well, the condensed milk goes in a water bath and then in the oven. How do I know what went wrong in Atlanta?? It happened to me. I've tried it again - love it - made vanilla ice cream and added the Dulce de Leche.

Brewers, Below you will see a brew that I did in April. I have won 3rd place twice with this beer. It is getting very good remarks. I have hit a road block with the perfection of this one. Some of the critiques are that it is one deminsional in flavor.(even though most like the taste). Also that the aroma is nice but its not as strong as it should be. It has been called roasty, great body, chocolaty and balanced. How do I take it to the 1st place level? Any Ideas are welcome!

My experience with Robust Porters says another 4 ounces of Crystal 80L. A little more caramel flavor and aroma, very slightly sweeter. [Disclaimer: This opinion submitted by someone who never has and never will enter or judge a competition, he just likes porters.]
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!" "I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
One tip I heard from Jamil is to split your crystal. In your case cut the 80 in half and use an equal amount of either 60 or 120 depending what you want. I've got his recipe for a robust in a secondary now. Can't wait until christmas to try it...
Distilled water? Hmm...I'd go with spring. You want those mineral tastes. Perhaps even consider a chlorinated water that's been boiled briefly. Chlorine will sweeten up your beers.
When I brew/drink a porter, I expect a lot of mouth feel and a certain sweet "chewy-ness". Maybe the extra dimension your looking for is in the form of 1/2 lb of quick oats and some malto...

Pippi Longstocking cavorts at Seattle Children's Theatre
A review of "Pippi Longstocking," a musical about the pigtailed 9-year-old from Astrid Lindgren's books, on stage at Seattle Children's Theatre through Nov. 3, 2013.
Seattle Times theater critic
'Pippi Longstocking: The Family Musical'
Through Nov. 3, Seattle Children's Theatre, Seattle Center; $20-$36 (206-441-3322 or sct.org).
Her full name is Pippilotta Delicatessa Windowshade Mackrelmint Ephraim's Daughter Longstocking. But you can call her Pippi for short, which is the moniker several generations of young readers know her by.
The free-spirited, pigtailed little heroine of several books by Swedish writer Astrid Lindgren (and many movies and plays they inspired), Pippi is regaling a new wave of grade-schoolers with her impish adventures these days, in a colorfully mounted and frolicsome stage musical at Seattle Children's Theatre.
In this song-strung adaptation of "Pippi Longstocking" by the Swedish team of Sebastian and Staffan Gotestam, the irrepressible Pippi is played with oodles of spunk and sass by Molli Corcoran — an adult actor doing a swell impression of a frisky and precocious 9-year-old.
Pippi lives large. And what kid wouldn't, residing without parental supervision in designer Jennifer Lupton's outsized dollhouse of a chalet? With no money worries, thanks to the stash of gold her buccaneer dad (Hugh Hastings) left her? And her own spotted pony and pet monkey?
Pippi, whose unique fashion sense has her wearing one striped knee sock, devotes herself to having fun and making stuffy old adults crazy.
She's the unfettered scamp most kids would love to be, one skip ahead of those pesky parents and teachers who want to tame her. True, Pippi worries a bit about her jolly pirate father, since he got swept overboard during a voyage. And she misses her late mother.
But the musical dwells mostly on the antics she cooks up while delighting her new chums, Annika (Stephanie Kim) and Tommy (Adam Standley). And the horror Pippi provokes in a squeamish schoolteacher (Karen Skrinde), a pair of bumbling cops (Chris Ensweiler and Alyssa Keene) and a bossypants social-welfare worker, Mrs. Prysselius (Laura Kenny), who is determined to haul the whippersnapper off to an orphanage.
Fat chance. Rita Giomi stages with verve Pippi's exploits, as she leads the coppers on a merry rooftop chase, outsmarts a pair of dense burglars, crashes a tea party and torments Kenny's wonderfully hateful killjoy into apoplexy.
The scattered songs (accompanied by Jeff Bell on piano) have a savory cabaret flavor (think Kurt Weill Lite), and range from yo-ho-ho hornpipes to sweet lullabies.
And the gags are pitched right to the 5-to-10-year-old crowd — who howled loudest at a recent matinee over some whoopie-cushion bits. (Note: the nearly two-hour show may be a long haul for very young and/or very restless tykes.)
The moral of Pippi's story seems directed mostly at repressive adults, who bully kids to conform and obey. And one assumes that children won't take too seriously the show's rosy view of piracy and rude anarchy.
Pippi may act up, and act out. But she's a force of nature who doesn't have a mean bone in her "super-duper" strong little body.

Steak and Chipotle Eggs Benedict Recipe
May 29, 2011 8:01 am
Breakfast worthy of a king
If you have some steak and spinach left over from this weekend's cookouts, steak and eggs benedict is a damn good way to put it to use. If you've already got the meat and spinach, you can whip up a hollandaise sauce and you're good to go.
Servings: 4 servings
8 eggs
1 tablespoon white vinegar
4 English muffins, toasted
8 thin slices leftover steak, to fit on each side of the English muffin
spinach, leftover cooked, and warmed, a spoonful for each side of the English muffin
1 tablespoon sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo
For the eggs:
- In a large pot of boiling water add the vinegar. Turn the heat down to a low simmer.
- Crack the eggs one at a time, into a small bowl and add them one at a time very gently into the simmering water.
- Cook for 3-5 minutes until the egg is completely coagulated and the yolk looks slightly opaque. Remove from the water.
For the Hollandaise Sauce:
- Pour 1-inch of water into a pot over medium heat, and heat to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low.
- Place egg yolks and 1 teaspoon water in a medium metal mixing bowl and place over the simmering pot. Whisk until mixture lightens in color, approximately 1 to 2 minutes.
- Place the mixture over the simmering water and whisk constantly for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the mixture thickens, doubles in quantity and becomes a lighter color.
- Remove the bowl from over the simmering water and gradually add the butter, in a slow stream, continually whisking until all of the butter is incorporated. Do not rush this procedure or your sauce may break and become curdled looking.
- Place the bowl back over the simmering water occasionally so that it stays warm —NOT HOT — you don't want to scramble your egg yolks.
- Add the lime juice, adobo sauce and season with salt. Serve immediately or keep warm.
Assemble the dish by placing sliced steak on top of each side of the toasted English muffin. Scoop warm leftover sauteed spinach on top of the steak, top with a poached egg and drizzle the hollandaise on top of each egg.

AKV and VB May 2008 - Day 16
Wednesday June 4th 2008
This morning we were off to VB. My stomach was still not feeling too settled but we were packed and on our way by 11am. We decided to take the Beachline Expressway as far as we could towards the coast and then head down the 1, avoiding the I95. Wow the Beachline was so straight!! Once we hit the coast the scenery changed and we saw the start of more water. As we had basic maps went all the way into VB before working out that we could cut across the inlet, by a bridge, a lot earlier! Anyway once at VB we parked and checked in and were given a room which had a side ocean view and a view of the pool. We also found a nice towel animal waiting for us The room itself was basically like a studio! Once settled we had a wander around the resort and took a walk across to the beach. The beach looked so inviting as we would definitely try this later in our stay. After this it was time to get dinner and we decided on Shutters. I was not feeling to hungry so passed on the starter but Nathan had the Caesar salad. I then had the chicken and mash. Nathan had the Mahi Mahi. The chicken tasted good but I didnt finish it all. After this we headed off to bed for a good sleep. Claire

Watch †††'s 'Telepathy' Video Before It's Gone
†††, Music
Chino Moreno has posted the latest video from his side-project ††† (Crosses), for the song Telepathy, on his YouTube channel. The track is from the band's self-titled debut album. It has very trippy visuals, to say the least.
Check it out:
Since it has been posted by Moreno himself, the video it's probably going to be deleted soon by the band's record label . This is just speculation and there's always the chance that maybe they're cool about it and the video will stay there.
