"Graffiti is the sight of an unregulated free market getting the kind of art it deserves. And although some people might say it's all a big waste of time, no one cares about their opinion if their name isn't written in huge letters on the bridge into town."
Urban street legend Banksy's preface kickstarts this thick collection of street art, part of the growing embrace by the art establishment of spraycan jockeys and guerrilla stencillers.
Immaculately produced by Taschen it examines the spread of graffiti art with key works by 150 artists, hundreds of colour reproductions and essays by Anne Pasternak, Tony Serra, Carlo McCormick, Marc and Sara Schiller and Banksy himself.
The book traces events, protests and works by four generations of outlaw artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Spencer Tunick, Keith Haring, Shepard Fairey, Blu, Billboard Liberation Front, Jenny Holzer and Jean Tinguely.
Paperback, 128pp
100 colour illustrations, Tate Publishing £14.99
Regarded as a cutting edge artist at virtually every stage of her life Louise Bourgeois became best known, just a few years before her death earlier this year, for her colossal spider sculptures.
And having fitted in an enormous body of work in her 98 years the French woman enjoyed renewed fame with the opening of Tate Modern in 2000 when she was commissioned to provide works for the cavernous Turbine Hall.
Her installation of three steel towers wrapped in spiral staircases and topped with round mirrors, entitled I Do, I Undo and I Redo, inspired daily queues of curious sightseers to the gallery.
The 30ft high towers contained bell jars of sculpted figures of a mother and child - a favourite theme of the artist.
(Bantam £18.99) 4/5
Just when you begin to wonder where all the properly raunchy fun has gone, out pops Jilly Cooper. The grand dame of the bonkbuster has produced yet another stonking tale of high-jinks in and out of the saddle.
Where does Cooper get her energy? Jump! is her longest book to date, with an awesome shag per page ratio.
If anyone should need reminding, no one writes about sex and shysters with as much gusto as Cooper. Now 73, her first bestselling novel Riders was published decades
ago in 1986.
Yet she seems as on the ball as ever when it comes to describing sexual desire and all the mess that accompanies wanton lust. And Jump! has a cast of hundreds out for a good time - with long-serving Cooper favourites such as the handsome Rupert Campbell-Black cropping up.
The heroine of Jump!, though, is a granny. Etta Bancroft has suffered in virtual silence for years as the wife of bonking bully Sampson Bancroft, a hugely wealthy industrialist. Even her grown-up children, twins Martin and Carrie, have inherited their father's casual disregard for Etta.
And when Sampson finally snuffs it, Etta's quickly turfed out of the lovely family pile and shipped off to a dismal bungalow in the village of Willowwood, deep in the darkest reaches of Cooper's old romping ground, Larkshire.
However, Etta's life is miraculously turned around when she nurses a hideously mutilated filly back to life and onto jump racing glory.
Having persuaded the whole over-sexed village to come in on the syndicate, they all suddenly reap unexpected benefits - that is until the horse mysteriously disappears.
One sub-plot involves shady Middle Eastern betting interests, while another finds a former professional footballer scoring the ultimate goal.
Well before the end, however, the tale begins to flag, and no wonder... who wouldn't have run out of puff? Cooper might put more horsepower into her characters' horsing around than anyone else, but she's only human after all. Long may she last.
Members Only by Paul Willetts
(Serpents Tail £14.99) 4/5
From unlikely Liverpool lad to porn baron and property magnet, this is the first fully comprehensive story of Paul Raymond's scandalous life and legacy. Yet whatever offence Raymond may have caused, he never forgot his staunch Labour roots.
Tony Parsons on Life, Death and Breakfast
(HarperCollins £18.99) 5/5
Few commentators have such insight, wit, style and a justified sense of outrage as Daily Mirror columnist Tony Parsons.
This illuminating collection of essays - on everything from football to fake boobs - gets straight to the point and stays there. Essential reading.
Trick Of The Dark by Val McDermid
(Little, Brown £18.99) 3/5
This standalone from the Scottish force of nature, and creator of Robson Green's Wire In The Blood TV series, is a brutally clever story of the apparent murder of a groom in the strangely serene setting of Oxford's hallowed colleges. On the case is a disgraced psychiatrist.
A Place Of Secrets by Rachel Hore
(Pocket Books £6.99) 4/5
Sumptuous prose, deft plotting, lush settings, troubling personal histories, tragedy, heady romance and even a smattering of 18th century scientific wonderment mark Hore's fourth novel as her most accomplished and enthralling yet.
Empire Of Silver by Conn Iggulden
(Harper Collins £18.99) 3/5
Another epic historical drama featuring Mongol ambitions to expand both east and
west following the death of the Great Khan. No one understands Mongol military tactics and ambition better than Iggulden, or renders them more colourfully.
Faithful Place
by Tana French
(Hodder & Stoughton £12.99) 3/5
Undercover cop Frank Mackey has spent 20 years cutting ties with his family and trying to forget the moment when his old girlfriend Rosie failed to run away with him to London. Frank's life is turned upside-down again when his sister suddenly reveals a clue to Rosie's disappearance.
(William Heinemann £12.99) ★★★★
He has long been lauded by fellow crime writers as a man to watch. For the uninitiated, Don Winslow's prose style sits somewhere between Elmore Leonard and James Ellroy, while his plots invariably focus on a better class of criminal up against the real scum.
Based in Southern California, and a former private eye, Winslow's other key trademark is to chart a certain sort of hell in paradise.
Savages is Winslow on rip-roaring form, his most stylish, pacy and blood-soaked novel yet. No wonder Oliver Stone has already lined himself up to direct the movie.
Environmentalist and Third World philanthropist Ben and his old school chum
Chon, a former Navy Seal, run a communityspirited, fair-trade, top-class weed growing and distribution business in fancy Laguna Beach.
As the bucks flow in, Ben travels the world distributing aid while Chon and the alluring
Ophelia lounge around enjoying each other.
Free love is the name of the game, until the Mexican Baja drug cartel decide they want in
on Ben and Chon's cosy operation. And when the cartel doesn't get its way, torture and
decapitation usually result. Then the cartel kidnap the lovely O, threatening to behead
her unless they relinquish their profits for the next three years.
A brilliantly clever game of cat and mouse then ensues as Ben and Chon race to outwit the brutal cartel and secure the release of Ophelia.
There are times when Winslow's snappy prose style gets in the way of both his characters' predicaments and the more subtle nuances of the plot.
There are also a few too many descriptions of how exactly Mexican drug cartels operate.
Despite this, Savages is more vibrant, stylish and captivating than just about anything that comes from our dark, damp shores. A true thriller.
Evil In Return by Elena Forbes
(Quercus £12.99) 3/5
A top author is found dead having been brutally tortured.
Then the body of a second man convinces DI Mark Tartaglia that the killer doesn't just have a gripe with successful writers.
Sidney Sheldon's After The Darkness by Tilly Bagshawe
(Harper £7.99) 3/5
Here's a hotchpotch. Bestselling Brit author Bagshawe (sister of the
more famous Louise) writes a bonkbuster in the style of the late, great
Sidney Sheldon. Same old stuff in a fancy new frock.
(Little Brown £16.99) 4/5
There's a line towards the end of From The Dead that doesn't just sum up Billingham's latest sparkling thriller, in many ways it encapsulates his work so far.
Effectively, he says love can cause as much damage as hate.
While Billingham has well and truly mastered the modern police procedural, the thing that sets him apart from the crowd is not just his emotional insight, but the way he invariably packs such a heart-wrenching punch.
We're not just moved by his characters and their plight, we really feel for them - even the ones who, on the surface, we really shouldn't give a fig about.Empathy is the name of the game, along with some very skilful plotting.
From The Dead is DI Tom Thorne's ninth outing and things couldn't be going worse for the seasoned detective. One of his cases involving the disappearance and presumed murder of a young woman at the hands of a known sexual predator collapses in court. Then a pushy young female private detective, Anna Carpenter, brings Thorne some shocking news regarding a decade-old murder case he had led.
Donna Langford had hired a hitman to knock off her husband, the notoriously brutal gangster Alan Langford. The charred remains of Langford were found in Epping Forest, handcuffed to the steering wheel of his Jag.
Donna was quickly arrested and subsequently sentenced to life, along with an Irish hitman called Paul Monahan whom she'd paid £25,000. Case solved.
However, a recently released Donna went to Carpenter with a photograph showing that Langford hadn't in fact been burnt to death, and was currently sunning himself on the Med.
Eventually, Anna persuades Thorne to take another look and, before they know it, Monahan's been murdered in his prison cell. Donna then reveals that the now grown-up daughter she had with Langford has disappeared.
From The Dead is stalked by young women vanishing and a sense of innocence being ripped away. It is Billingham's most desperately gripping read yet.
Black Diamond by Martin Walker (Quercus £12.99) 3/5
Luscious rural French caper, featuring the intrepid, endearing gourmand Inspector Bruno Courreges on the trail of a gang of black truffle smugglers running rife in formerly blissful Périgord.
Gallery Girl by Wendy Holden (Headline Review £12.99) 4/5
Holden on form is a thing to behold and Gallery Girl finds the uber-mischievous author toying with the over-inflated, sex-crazed and surprisingly impoverished art world. A horny hoot.
Tigerlily's Orchids by Ruth Rendell (Hutchinson £18.99) 2/5
A new Rendell is always welcome for her psychological insight, her sharp sense of humour and the lucidity of her prose. Yet her characters and plot here, following a disastrous house-warming party, feel decidedly dated.
(Doubleday £18.99)
It has never been easy to label Kate Atkinson. Her first novel, Behind The Scenes At The Museum, charted four generations of women from one family and won a garland of literary prizes. Her next couple of novels were also highly critically acclaimed.
And then she shifted quite distinctly into the world of crime with Case Histories, which brought us the brooding ex-army, ex-cop, sometime gumshoe Jackson Brodie.
He effectively catapulted Atkinson to the No 1 bestseller slot. Her latest, Started Early, Took My Dog, is Brodie's fourth outing and Atkinson's finest novel to date.
Indeed, it's one of the finest British novels, in any genre, to have emerged for years. While Atkinson uses Brodie to add a moral weight to the crimes he's invariably been caught up with, and also to build suspenseful plots around, primarily she's in it for the writing.
Atkinson's prose is sharp and dexterous, subtle and stylish, very funny and at times extraordinarily cutting. To go into the intricate, multi-layered plots of Started Early, Took My Dog would quickly diminish the endless power of surprise Atkinson gives us.
However, right from the start it's very clear she has another agenda with this novel. She's angry with this country, with the injustice, the great social divide, the hopelessness, misery and inanity of a busted, careless state and the wretched lives of wretched people.
This is very much a state of the nation novel - it's far sharper and
more observant and satirically understanding than anything else out there at the moment. And yet Atkinson also gives us humanity, insight and entertainment.
Aside from Brodie, who's hitting the age of 50 hard, the other brilliant character in this novel is Tracy Waterhouse.
A recently retired detective superintendent, she is now head of security at the Merrion Shopping Centre in Leeds, where she struggles with an endless deluge
of harsh criminality and her huge appetite for cakes.
Having lost all belief in both Britain and, effectively, humanity, Tracy suddenly makes one last stab for decency, and thus sets in motion a story that deserves to be read for decades to come.

How to Take More Pleasure in Parenthood: 4 Tips for a Calmer, Happier Existence
It's easy to let insignificant problems ruin your days, especially when you're a parent to small children. The vigilance and supervision required to raise safe and well-behaved kids can make life feel like hard work.
Combine your constant efforts with the tantrums and bad attitudes kids have sometimes, and it's not at all uncommon to feel annoyed and put out. Here are four ways to stop feeling exasperated and start feeling calmer and happier on a daily basis.
1. Gain a Positive Perspective
The secret to overcoming petty irritations is to view those concerns within the context of their significance. When a bad mood strikes, get your perspective back in check by being grateful for your good fortune.
In the scope of human existence, you're extremely lucky. Chances are, you're raising a healthy child in premium conditions. The simple fact that you're probably reading this article using a device connected to the internet means you aren't dealing with illiteracy, living in extreme poverty, or fighting disease like so many others around the world. You probably have a roof over your head and can afford all the food and water required to sustain you and your family.
I'm sure you have many more blessings aside from the basics of sustaining existence. Count those blessings often for a boost of optimism. Gretchen Rubin of The Happiness Project suggests developing a daily ritual to cultivate gratitude. Gretchen thinks about what she's grateful for each time she crosses her threshold. I think about how good my life is each day when I walk my daughter outside.
2. Connect With Other Parents
There are times you'll feel like the only one who's unfulfilled, frustrated or struggling. These are all common states for people in general, and especially for parents. It's easy to feel that way when you have the expanded responsibility of caring for kids, and you're expected to put others' needs before your own.
We are social animals and feeling connected to others makes us feel good. We all need to feel understood and heard, even when we're not especially proud of our feelings. By sharing your troubles with other parents, you can connect and feel not-so-alone.
For an instant boost, call or email a friend to laugh, talk and share. I schedule regular date nights with my husband, and regular girls' nights with my friends. And if you need help, don't be afraid to ask for it. It's likely that the person you ask will have felt the same way at some point.
3. Stay in the Moment
It doesn't always feel like it, but childhood is fleeting. When you dwell on the past or worry about the future, then you miss out on the small joys that are right under your nose. When your mind wanders away from the present, you miss out on living life -- which happens in the now, not the past or future.
Harvard researchers found that regardless of the activity, when subjects were focused on the task at hand, they were more likely to feel happy than if they were distracted or thinking about something else.
When you savor those precious moments, you experience the everyday beauty that makes life worth living.
4. Practice Compassion
When our kids seek our attention, it's because they want to feel loved and validated. But there are times when we assume these intrusions on our time are a test of our patience and limits. Well, and let's be honest: sometimes kids are testing us!
Imagine what it's like to be in your child's shoes, to rely on someone else to meet all of your needs: what if that someone lacks consideration, focus and patience? It's part of a child's survival instinct to try even harder to get that person to pay attention.
When we parents allow ourselves feel what it's like to be that vulnerable, it makes it easier to focus on our kids and be patient with them, which in turn, makes our kids feel less needy and less attention hungry. When we practice compassion, our kids feel more secure and are less likely to push our buttons. That's a win-win.
The next time your day feels demanding and you find yourself wondering, "Why me?!" know that it's because you can handle it. Think back to these four tips and pick a couple to practice: get perspective, be connected, stay present or practice compassion - and you'll feel calmer and happier instantly.

Since I wrote that post we've come across a couple of examples where there doesn't seem to be a name to describe a data structure.
We are building a pricing engine where the input is a set of configurations and the output is a set of pricing rows associated with each configuration.
We modelled the problem using a List of Pairs of Configuration/PricingItems:
List<Pair<Configuration, PricingItem>> configurationToPricingItems = buildThoseCombinations();
We don't need to do any lookups by Configuration – just show the results to the user – which is why we haven't used a Map.
Our object oriented background suggested that there should be a name in the business domain for this but when we spoke to our business analyst and subject matter expert it became clear that they didn't actually have a word.
Despite that it still feels strange to have to pass around a List of Pairs but I wonder if that's because in Java we tend to abstract concepts behind classes rather than because it makes sense to do so.
If we were using clojure then I don't think we'd feel as uncomfortable about passing around basic data structures because the language and the culture around it encourage this. We should only create a type when it's strictly necessary.
In this case it's a data structure to carry those combinations around and we don't actually apply any logic to the data structure as a whole, only to the individual entries.
We wrote the code about three weeks ago now and haven't experienced any difficulties in terms of the code being understandable or easy to work with.
I'm intrigued as to whether others have noticed a similar thing or if we aren't embracing Domain Driven Design fully and need to dig deeper to find a missing domain concept?

The Versatile Coconut
by Katie Cavuto-Boyle in Uncategorized, July 14, 2012
For many people, coconuts conjure up an image of a tropical island vacation but this versatile fruit has far more benefits and applications than flavoring a piña coladas. Coconuts have been studied for their antimicrobial, antiviral and immune boosting properties due to the medium chain fatty acids, lauric acid and capric acid, found in them. Fresh coconuts can be found whole in many grocery stores and ethnic markets. Coconut has been getting quite a bit of buzz lately and you may have seen a wide variety of coconut products available at your grocery store. Have you been wondering what are they and if they're good for you? Well I did too, and here is the scoop.
Coconut water is the thin, slightly opaque liquid found inside freshly cracked coconuts. One cup of coconut water has 46 calories and is a good source of fiber, potassium, magnesium and vitamin C. Opt for an unsweetened version; the added sugars and flavors make a good thing less healthy really quickly.
Coconut milk is a creamy, non-dairy alternative made by processing coconut meat with water. Again, unsweetened is best. Coconut milk is used in many non-dairy ice creams as well and let me tell you, it is tasty!
Cream of coconut is made using the same method as coconut milk and varies in consistency from a thick liquid to a spreadable semi-solid.
Coconut oil is a cholesterol-free saturated fat that can be used in both baking and cooking. It has a relatively high smoke point and is a solid at room temperature. Coconut oil may help raise HDL levels but because it is a fat, it should be used sparingly and within daily caloric and fat requirements.
Coconut flour is a gluten-free alternative made by grinding coconut meat into a fine powder.
Coconut sugar is available as a paste, a syrup or nectar, a dry block and granules. It is made by boiling the sap of coconut flowers and has a glycemic index score of 35 (similar to honey) which is less than sugar. The less it is processed and refined the better it is for you.
If you have yourself a whole, fresh coconut, take a look at Food Network Magazine's step-by-step guide on how to break it down. And if you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can drink the coconut water right from the coconut with the magazine's instructions.

What a disgusting photo, it looks like Cheny is using mental telepathy on Bush. Of course that would be impossible sense the space btween Bush's ears is "empty".

A divided federal appeals court rejected a lawsuit Friday challenging President Bush's domestic spying program without ruling on the issue of whether warrantless wiretapping is legal.
In a 2-1 decision with Republican-appointed judges in the majority, a three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the plaintiffs had no standing to sue because they couldn't prove their communications had been monitored by the government.
The decision underscored the difficulty of challenging the anti-terrorism program in court because its secret nature prevents plaintiffs from obtaining surveillance information. The National Security Agency had refused to turn over information about the warrantless wiretapping that would have bolstered the court case.
"This is a Catch-22," said Steven R. Shapiro, legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, which filed the lawsuit. "I think what in effect they're saying is that we can't tell you whether you have been wiretapped because that's a secret. And unless you know you've been wiretapped, you can't challenge that program."
The appeals court vacated a 2006 order by a lower court in Detroit, which had concluded that the warrantless surveillance authorized after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks was unconstitutional.
President Bush authorized warrantless monitoring of international telephone calls and e-mails to or from the United States when one party is believed to be a terrorist or to have terrorist ties. The government has kept details confidential, saying the case involved state secrets whose disclosure would threaten national security.
While sidestepping the question of constitutionality, Judge Alice M. Batchelder and Judge Julia Smith Gibbons wrote that the plaintiffs lacked standing to sue without proof they were monitored by the government.
"The plaintiffs are ultimately prevented from establishing standing because of the state secrets privilege," Gibbons wrote.
Judge Ronald Lee Gilman, a Democratic appointee, disagreed, saying the plaintiffs were within their rights to sue and that it was clear the surveillance program violated the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978. The government had said it sometimes needed to act without waiting for the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, established by the 1978 law.
Earlier this year, the Bush administration said the eavesdropping program is now overseen by a special federal intelligence court, so the case was moot. But, by sidestepping the constitutionality of the surveillance program, the appeals court left open the possibility that Bush or another president could restart the program, and opponents contend that means the case remains relevant.
The appellate decision didn't address the legality of the wiretapping program or absolve the administration of complying with a congressional subpoena seeking more information, said Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., who is head of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"There is a dark cloud over the White House's warrantless wiretapping program, and a full response to the outstanding subpoena from the Senate Judiciary Committee by this Administration would be a good start to clearing the air," Leahy said in a statement.
The Justice Department and the White House were pleased with the outcome.
"We have always believed that the District Court's decision declaring the terrorist surveillance program unconstitutional was wrongly decided," White House spokesman Tony Fratto said.
Department of Justice spokesman Brian Roehrkasse said the surveillance program was "a vital intelligence program that helped detect and prevent terrorist attacks. It was always subject to rigorous oversight and review."
The ACLU pursued the lawsuit on behalf of other groups, including lawyers, journalists and scholars who asserted that the government monitoring prevented them from doing their jobs properly. The suit was filed in January 2006, a month after the program's existence became known publicly.
Others have filed court challenges to the program, but none has gotten as far in the court system.
Shapiro said the ACLU is considering all its legal options, including asking for a full-court hearing in the 6th Circuit or asking the U.S. Supreme Court to consider it. If the ACLU doesn't pursue an appeal, the case would go back to the U.S. District Court in Michigan for dismissal.
A law professor who has closely followed the case thinks it will be dropped.
"The case is not moot because the government could continue the program at any time," said Robert A. Sedler, a law professor at Wayne State University. "But because it's not now in effect, the Supreme Court is not likely to hear it. It's simply not an important case anymore."

What a disgusting photo, it looks like Cheny is using mental telepathy on Bush. Of course that would be impossible sense the space btween Bush's ears is "empty".
Seal you are spot on, stopping the money train with a national strike for a week is absolutely the right move. Take a vacation at home,don't drive and don't buy anything made in China ever.Then maybe we will have gained a grip on their short hairs for a change .
Phillips Plasma. Check. Filed away in the brain bucket for later reference — like when I can afford to pay cash.
Gene, it isn't an HDTV. That is what I already had. What I bought is a Phillips Plasma 50+ inch screen. The plasma is so much better than HD you just have to see it to believe it. Especially, something like a football game.
They are expensive though. I have an old military buddy in the business and he got it for me at cost. Otherwise, I doubt I would have bought it now and waited until the price of them goes down as it will in a year or two.
What HDTV did you get?
Yanno Carl, I don't know if I can agree with you on one thing. I just bought a new Plasma TV. The biggest damn screen I could find. With lighting in the back of it that changes with the picture. Did I need it? No. But the picture is so much better than a HD set you have to see it to believe it. It has depth almost like 3-D. It's very life like instead of just a flat one dimension picture. And the graphics make the people and everything else look real. I wanted it – I bought it and I won't apologize for it. It's better, that's why.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with buying a better computer or cell phone or TV or game system or car or whatever when they come out with them IF YOU CAN AFFORD THEM. What is wrong is buying them when you cannot afford them and driving yourself further in debt. The debt is the problem, not the "want' for new toys. Everyone wants them. But I pay cash or I don't get them. Consequently, I am in control of my life, not the bank. The debt people have created for themselves means they are no longer in control of their life. We have a whole nation of people like that. Controlled by the ruling class that owns everything through their corporations that are all inter-connected and have enslaved the nation through credit.
If you want to start a revolution, just have everyone stop paying their bills and watch the corporations go belly up in a couple of months. It's that flow of money that keeps them in power. Shut it off and you will break them and their power.
This is the Bush legacy. Federal judges that will rule based upon politics and theocracy instead of law.
Things seem fairly hopeless…! Batman where are you when we need you…?! When I look at the photo supplied with this article, I see "The Penguin;ie.Cheney" and "The Joker;ie,Bush" teaming-up to terrorize the good citizens of Gotham City; ie, "we the people"…!
The reason we are in this fix is that people everywhere are more enamoured with their toys; large screen TV's, phones that are now virtually handheld pc's, fancy homes that are doubly or trebly mortgaged, SUV's, sports cars and a host of other titillating nonsense that won't mean a tinkers damn once they lose their freedom for all time and all places. America is quite unfree as of now, it's just that most folks don't have a run-in with "the man" or the system regularly enough to know just how bad it has become. Supposedly 60 million Americans are on anti-depressants; i.e, Prozac, Welbutrin, Zoloft, and a host of these emotionally deadening drugs that turn them into passive, consumeristic feedlot animals. Instead they've been reduced to nothing but to passive "deer in the headlights" as the fifth wheel of "Tyranny" runs them down on the road to permanent NWO slavery!
Bushco is spying on you without due FISA court process; collective response…moooah!
Bushco is perpetuating a war based on false premises with the intention of stealing another nations oil reserves and establishing very costly bases in a region of the world that is hostile to us; collective response…moooah!
Bushco is tinkering with judicial system appointees and trying to sway outcomes in ongoing Federal investigations and proceedings; collective response…moooah!
Bushco immediately commutates or pardons cronies who are blatantly involved with violating statutues; collective response…moooah!
Bushco's policies have broken this nation financially and reduced us to the world's premier debtor among debtor nations; collective response…moooah!
On and on the list can go and so to the collective…moooah's!
I fear that we are witnessing the twilights last gleaming! They are hammering out the creation of the "North American Union" right now and plan on slipping this one in front of our Congressional traitors; i.e, the merging of Canada, the U.S.,and Mexico into one large entity similar to the concept of the Euro. This is also precisely why they don't want to start seriously enforcing our southern borders because it's in conflict with their NWO plans to neutralize the U.S. and simply turn this once great nation into nothing but an "enterprise zone", simply a minor plantation in the shadowy oligarchs' greater world plantation. Of course as ususal the American taxpayer will have to pay the freight with more debt money while illegals from south of the border skate and our friends in Canada scratch their heads and butts thinking "what the f..k eh?!"
What will the average afore-described American "consumer/victim" do; collective response…moooah!?
My suggestion is that Americans identify and earmark every Congressional traitor that's involved with this plan and to give them a summary boot over the side when they come due for re-election also call them and let them know in no uncertain terms that's what you will do and then carry out your threat. If the situation warrants even make the effort to recall them immediately if not sooner. They will shove this North American Union through the same way they did with NAFTA and CAFTA and our involvement with the WTO, all anathema to our people, our markets and the well-being of the people of this country. These evil mattoids are all probably laughing their butts off because to them it's a slam dunk with the likes of Bush/Cheney; i.e, The Penguin and The Joker working as a team to screw "we the people" for all time and places.
I'll post the duty links and I urge every citizen/patriot to get involved with the process of their government. Chuck your meds down the drain, start excercising, quit drinking and packing your faces with excess food and think twice before you purchase more useless techno-crap that you really don't need. Ask yourself this question. Do I need it or do I want it? If you have a true need then buy the best you can afford and if you only want something then it's best you fade the craving because that's all it amounts to; i.e., craving. Start focusing on your way of life and start to value what you have! It's better to be a free "out-of-pocket" pauper then to be a fat, drugged-out, bloated "slave" with lots of "stuff"…no?! Maybe not,do I hear another…moooah? Or a resounding…"Live free or die"…!
"A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both."…Dwight D. Eisenhower
Carl Nemo **==
Now can we talk about why we should not trust a Republican President? Never have we seen a more dominating presense in our White House. They want the control over our lives and they have it.
Remember the Congress approved of Bush's choices so in a fact the voters approved as well.

"And that's why the work of CAGW is so vital - vital in the battle against budget deficits and vital to the strength and resiliency of the democratic system and public confidence in our government."- Ronald Reagan
What is Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW)?
CAGW is a private, non-partisan, non-profit organization representing more than one million members and supporters nationwide. Since its founding in 1984, CAGW has earned a reputation as America's premier taxpayer watchdog organization for exposing countless examples of government waste and safeguarding the interests of taxpayers in Washington.
What is CAGW's mission?
CAGW's mission is to eliminate waste, fraud, abuse and mismanagement in the federal government.
What is CAGW famous for?
CAGW's most famous publication is the annual Congressional Pig Book Summary an exposé that names the names of pork-barrel politicians and their pet projects.
Other publications include the annual Congressional Ratings, created by CAGW's lobbying arm, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste. The Ratings evaluate the voting records of each member of Congress on key tax and spending issues.
is the group's quarterly newsletter, which is distributed to members of CAGW, Congress, and members of the media nationwide.
Prime Cuts is a comprehensive catalog of federal programs in need of reform and elimination.
Through the Looking Glass Investigative Reports put government spending under the microscope.
Government WasteWatch is CAGW's monthly dispatch to members of the news media. Culled from dense General Accounting Office reports, obscure news items, and the occasional account of a whistleblower, WasteWatcher's stories capture headlines by transforming the dry matter of federal financial management into tales of government ineptitude.
How was CAGW founded?
Founded in 1984 by the late businessman J. Peter Grace and late syndicated columnist Jack Anderson, CAGW is the follow-on organization to President Ronald Reagan's Private Sector Survey on Cost Control, also known as the Grace Commission. In 1982, President Reagan directed the Grace Commission to "work like tireless bloodhounds to root out government inefficiency and waste of tax dollars." For two years, 161 corporate executives and community leaders led an army of 2,000 volunteers on a waste hunt throughout the federal government. Funded entirely by voluntary contributions of $76 million from the private sector, the search cost taxpayers nothing. The Grace Commission made 2,478 recommendations which, if implemented, would save $424.4 billion over three years, an average of $141.5 billion a year all without eliminating essential services. The 47 volumes and 21,000 pages of the Grace Commission Report constitute a vision of an efficient, well-managed government that is accountable to taxpayers. CAGW has worked to make that vision a reality and, in 25 years, has helped save taxpayers $1.04 trillion through the implementation of Grace Commission findings and other recommendations.
How is CAGW funded?
CAGW does not accept government funds. The vast majority of the organization's funding comes from individual contributors around the nation. For a more detailed itemization of CAGW's funding, visit the Financial Information page.
What is pork-barrel spending?
In conjunction with the bipartisan Congressional Porkbusters Coalition, CAGW has developed seven criteria for identifying pork-barrel spending. All of the items in the Congressional Pig Book Summary meet at least one of CAGW's seven criteria, but most satisfy at least two:
- Requested by only one chamber of Congress;
- Not specifically authorized;
- Not competitively awarded;
- Not requested by the President;
- Greatly exceeds the President's budget request or the previous year's funding;
- Not the subject of congressional hearings; or,
- Serves only a local or special interest.
How Do I become a Member of CAGW?
To join CAGW, make a contribution using our secure form or by sending in your contribution with our Mail-in Form. For more information about the organization please contact us or call us, 1-800-BE-ANGRY.

Lindsey Wilson College provides the following benefits for it's employees. If you have any questions or concerns regarding these services, please feel free to contact the Human Resources department.
Employees of Lindsey Wilson College accrue vacation as follows:
Note: Any full-time employee can earn an additional five days of vacation for every 10 years of service. However, in no case may any employee exceed 4 weeks (20 days) vacation per year.
The Longevity service requirement is determined by the employee's anniversary date.
Completion of an approved absence request form, signed by the supervisor, is to be submitted to the Office of Human Resources. A two week prior permission is required. The decision for approval of a vacation period will be made by the supervisor, in consideration of the priorities of the College.
Employees must use all vacation days by June 30th of the current fiscal year or they will be forfeited.
In addition to vacation, the College provides the following paid holidays:
The College may grant three additional days during Christmas-New Year's period. The College will determine each year when and whether the specific days will be granted.
In order to be eligible for a paid holiday, the employee must work both the last scheduled working day immediately preceding and the first scheduled working day following the holiday itself. If an employee works on a holiday, they will be paid at a rate of double time.
If a holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, it may, at the College's discretion, be observed on either Friday or Monday. Pay of these holidays is included in your monthly pay.
The department head may approve taking a holiday in conjunction with vacation days where doing so will not disrupt the normal functioning of the department in which the employee works. Requests for taking a holiday in conjunction with vacation days must be made in advance to the employee's supervisor.
Retirement Plan
Once full-time employees have been employed by the College for one continuous year, or if they have previously participated in TIAA-CREF, they may elect to participate in the College's retirement plan. The College will match the employee's contribution, up to 5% of gross pay. The College has also agreed to contribute 3% of the employee's gross pay to the plan for any eligible full-time employee who chooses not to contribute.
All Amounts contributed by the College on your behalf will be deposited for you to TIAA-CREF or NATIONWIDE to be held until you retire. Should you terminate your employment with the College before reaching retirement, the following repurchase statement will apply:
a) None of the TIAA or CREF Retirement Annuities owned by participants requesting repurchase was issued more than five years prior to the time of repurchase (this five year requirement is waived if the total value of all TIAA and CREF Retirement Annuities owned is $4000 of less): and
b) The participant is neither employed by nor moving to an institution having a TIAA-CREF retirement plan in which they will be eligible to participate (employment includes sabbaticals or other leaves of absences.
Amounts paid to the participant on repurchase will be full satisfaction of the participant's and spouse's rights to retirement or survivor benefits attributable to such amounts. Since employee and College's contributions were made on a tax deferred basis, any payout will be treated as taxable income and subject to all federal state taxes and penalties in the year of payback.
For more details about this retirement plan, please consult with the Human Resources Office or refer to the Summary Plan Description explaining the College's retirement plan. If there any differences between the foregoing and the TIAA-CREF plan itself, the terms of the TIAA-CREF plan control.
Social Security
Social Security taxes have two Components - The OASDI (Old Age, Survivor and Disability Insurance) levy on all wages to a certain maximum provided by law and HI ( Hospital Insurance called Medicare) levy on all wages. The College contributes an amount equal to the tax withheld from each paycheck.
The Social Security Administration maintains an office in Campbellsville and provides a toll-free telephone number. If an employee has questions on benefits to be expected or payments to an account, the information can be provided by telephone or an office visit.
Medical Insurance
Lindsey Wilson College normally provides its employees, other than temporary employees and part-time employees working less than 35 hours per week, with group health insurance coverage, subject to the individual employee satisfying any eligibility requirements for insurance coverage established by the insurance provider. The College contributes the majority of the amount of the premium for individual coverage, with the precise amount determined annually and permits the employee to cover eligible dependents through payroll withholding.
The College evaluates its health insurance carrier and coverages on an annual basis.
The College reserves the right in its discretion to change the health insurance provider and to institute cost containment measures.
Refer to the summary plan description provided to you by the health insurance provider for more complete details on coverage requirements, deductible and co-payment provisions, benefits and limitations and restrictions on benefits. The Human Resource Office will also assist in answering any questions you may have about your health insurance coverage.
Life Insurance
The College has a group life policy which provides protection for all regular, full-time employees. The amount of life insurance is at least $20,000 for each employee.
Sick Leave
Full-time eligible employees accumulate sick leave on the basis of 6 days per year or 1/2 day per month. In an effort to encourage employees to save accumulated sick days for unanticipated one time illness, the College allows employees to accrue up to, but not to exceed, at any time, 30 days of accumulated and carried over sick time.
When an employee is off work for three days or more, the College requires that employees submit a doctor's statement before returning to work. Sick leave may be used to take care of immediate family members who are sick. Immediate family is defined as father, mother, sister, brother, child, or grandparent and the mother or father of the employee's current spouse.
The College may, in its sole discretion, based on specific employee request, agree to allow other employees to donate sick days to another employee under emergency situations. Any such requests should be submitted on an absence request form, signed by the supervisor and forwarded to the Office of Human Resources.
Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance
The College provides an accidental death and dismemberment policy that provides similar coverages as those listed under Life Insurance in No.7 above.
Tuition Assistance for Employees and their Dependents
Lindsey Wilson College will award employee tuition waivers for the Lindsey Wilson College undergraduate program to employees, current spouses and dependent children of full-time employees in accordance with the terms of this policy. Dependency is determined by the Federal Financial Aid Process.

Sellars directed over 40 productions during his time as an undergraduate, developing a controversial reputation for the eccentric, the unusual and the just plain wacky.
Sellars got an early start on directing at age 10, joining a Pittsburgh puppet theater he describes as a "fuschia garage with moss covering the walls."
While at Harvard, he enjoyed the independence that came with the lack of a formal drama program.
"The reason I came to Harvard was because there was no theater department," he says. "What you did was what you and your friends decided to do."
And he and his friends decided to do whatever they wanted—like putting up King Lear in the backseat of a Lincoln and Mayakovsky in a supermarket.
Sellars directed Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra in the Adams House Pool while it was still used for swimming, a move The Crimson's 1978 review called a "vigorous, probing, playful approach to college theater." The two lovers acted on floating rafts, with a strategically located phallic diving board. Cleopatra dunked the messenger who told her of Antony's marriage to Octavia.
"If it frequently resembles a circus, it is an indisputably Shakespearean circus," Crimson reviewer David B. Edelstein '81-'82 wrote.
Sellars' audience sat in a horseshoe around the pool and were frequently splashed by the actors. At one point, the actors led the spectators out of the Pool and into Rome—Adams House A-entry.
Edelstein seemed bemused by the experience in his Crimson review.
"Frankly I don't have the vaguest idea what [these things] mean. Maybe nothing and maybe everything," he wrote.
Drainage problems in the pool cut short Antony's run.
Much Ado About Nothing starred mannequins and people in day-glo Renaissance wear.
"Watching Peter Sellars' Much Ado about Nothing is like walking across a room blindfolded—it's easy if you're well acquainted with the terrain but painful and confusing if you're not," wrote Crimson editor Scott A. Rosenberg '81.
Rosenberg described the production as self-indulgent and radically unconventional.
"Sellars might just as well have bounded on stage, done a headstand, cried, 'look at me!' before the curtain rose, and let the play proceed with a modicum of sensibility," he wrote.

Meet the Prof: Lori Carrell
Dr. Lori Carrell's vision is "to educate, inspire, and equip others to maximize the transformative power of the spoken word." At UW Oshkosh, she has given shape to that vision in a myriad of ways. Students with a reputation for being reserved or silent always seem to "come out of their shell" in Dr. Carrell's classes. I believe this is because of Dr. Carrell's enthusiasm, ability to empathize with all students and role modeling of excellence in communication.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. – Christina Proteau sits atop the leader board at 3-over-par 74 following Saturday's morning wave of stroke play for the 2013 U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur Championship at the par-71 Biltmore Forest Country Club.
Proteau, 30, of Canada, carded one birdie and four bogeys while battling a mystery illness that arose overnight. However, the illness was not enough to dampen her spirits – or play havoc with her golf game.
"Beware of the sick golfer," said Proteau with a smile. "If you're distracted by something else, sometimes things can work out."
Proteau, a criminal prosecutor for the British Columbia Ministry of Justice, is competing in her second U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur. She fell in the quarterfinals in 2012 at Briggs Ranch Golf Club in San Antonio, after she eliminated four-time Women's Mid-Amateur champion Ellen Port in the third round. Proteau also qualified for the 2011 U.S. Women's Open at The Broadmoor, where she missed the cut by one stroke, and is a four-time Canadian Women's Mid-Amateur champion.
Rachel Smith, 25, of Mansfield, Texas, made the turn at two under, having converted three birdies to one bogey (she started on No. 10). A few wayward tee shots on her inward nine and a double bogey on the par-4 second, where her putter "decided to commit mutiny," dropped Smith to 4-over 75, alone in second among the morning grouping, one stroke behind Proteau.
Smith is competing in her second USGA championship. Smith, a P.J. Boatwright intern with the Texas Women's Golf Association, failed to reach match play at the 2005 U.S. Girls' Junior at BanBury Golf Club in Eagle, Idaho.
Four-time and defending Women's Mid-Amateur champion Meghan Stasi, 35, of Oakland Park, Fla., returned what she termed her "best round of 76 ever." With club member and Champions Tour player Morris Hatalsky on her bag, Stasi struggled off the tee and relied on the strength of her putting game to save her round, carding one birdie to six bogeys.
Margaret Shirley, of Roswell, Ga., joined Stasi at 76, while Lauren Todd, of Flagstaff, Ariz., was alone at 77 and Caryn Wilson, of Rancho Mirage, Calif., had the lone 78 of the morning.
Play was delayed for one hour on Saturday morning due to heavy fog that blanketed the Biltmore Forest course.
Twelve of the 66 players in the morning wave broke 80. Sixty-six players remain on the course for the afternoon wave, including Biltmore Forest member and 2012 quarterfinalist Debbie Adams, 2010 USGA Senior Women's Amateur champion Mina Hardin and 2009 U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur champion Martha Leach.
The 2013 U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur Championship is open to female amateur golfers who have reached their 25th birthday by Oct. 5. It consists of 36 holes of stroke play followed by six rounds of match play, with the championship scheduled to conclude with an 18-hole final on Thursday.
The U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur is one of 13 national championships conducted annually by the United States Golf Association, 10 of which are strictly for amateurs.
Christina Lance is the assistant manager of communications for the USGA. Email her at email@example.com.
The USGA and Chevron have committed to using the game of golf to encourage students in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) disciplines. This commitment has led to the creation of extensive golf-focused STEM teaching tools, and has resulted in charitable contributions to support golf-related programs through Eagles for Education
At U.S. Open Championships the Chevron STEM ZONE™ is an interactive experience highlighting the science and math behind the game of golf through a variety of hands-on exhibits and experiments.
The partnership has also produced educational materials such as the Science of Golf video series and a nationally-distributed newspaper insert which are provided to teachers as tools to enhance existing curriculum in schools. These lessons teach the science behind the USGA's equipment testing, handicapping, and agronomy efforts.
For more interactive experiences featuring golf-focused STEM lessons, visit the partnership homepage.
Rolex has been a longtime supporter of the USGA and salutes the sportsmanship and great traditions unique to the game. This support includes the Rules of Golf where Rolex has partnered with the USGA to ensure golfers understand and appreciate the game.
As the official timekeeper of the USGA and its championships, they also provide clocks throughout host sites for spectator convenience.

IBM has partnered with the USGA to bring the same technology, expertise, and innovation it provides to businesses all over the world to the USGA and golf's national championship.
IBM provides the information technology to develop and host the U.S. Open's official website, www.usopen.com, as well as the mobile apps and scoring systems for the three U.S. Open championships. These real-time technology solutions provide an enhanced experience for fans following the championship onsite and online.

Lexus is committed to partnering with the USGA to deliver a best-in-class experience for the world's best golfers by providing a fleet of courtesy luxury vehicles for all USGA Championships.
At each U.S. Open, Women's Open and Senior Open, Lexus provides spectators with access to unique experiences ranging from the opportunity to have a picture taken with both the U.S. Open and U.S. Women's Open trophies to autograph signings with legendary Lexus Golf Ambassadors in the Lexus Performance Drive Pavilion.

Together, American Express and the USGA have been providing world-class service to golf fans since 2006. By creating interactive U.S. Open experiences both onsite and online, American Express enhances the USGA's effort to make the game more accessible and enjoyable for fans.

5 Combat of Giants :DinosaursBlackbeltjones | 08/11/2008 | See all Blackbeltjones's reviews (1)Great game easy to pick up, we love playing it and the dino's are cool, nice and easy
5 Ahh what a refreshing changepetrolhead101 | 21/12/2008 | See all petrolhead101's reviews (6)Alot of games on the DS never live up to there hype or are just more unpolished lazy titles that show nothing really new, i am pleased to say that Combat Of Giants: Dinosaurs really isn't one of them. The presentation is brilliant, after selecting one of the unlocked dinosaurs you are taken to the first level and a fantastically structured tutorial begins. When moving you imediatley feel just how heavy your dinosaur is and it gives you a real good feeling just stamping around the landscape.The graphics are very clean and clear and everything feels vibrant. The battles are a mix of RPG style and stylus movements. You first select a move then after that you have to run your stylus over a certain shape covering as much as possible but with out going over the edges, this determines how much power your attack will have.The sound is nothing special but is functional and works well, the customisation options on the dinosaurs are brilliant although a preview of your selected item would have been nice when choosing upgrades before you purchase them. So overall a fantastic game with a few minor flaws.
5 awsomeNickMc1 | 18/01/2009 | See all NickMc1's reviews (4)It brings you back to a past Dimention where dinosaurs rule the land, choose and create your own dinosaur. Im nine years old and I love it.
4 DINOSAURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!chickenjoe | 13/11/2009 | See all chickenjoe's reviews (9)Good game. You must draw a picture and the better you do it the more damage you can inflict. But you can also fight tanks and more strange stuff.it does get a bit boring after a while.
4 A nice game...gianlucatabone | 08/10/2009 | See all gianlucatabone's reviews (2)Combat Of Giants: Dinosaurs:My 10-year-old brother has a DS, and since my gaming pc is not delivered yet, I decided to play this game that my brother bought from PLAY.COM. A cool DS game, I think one of the best, as many DS games are puzzles, unlike the games I like. I usually play Call Of Duty and GRID, but since I have no gaming pc delivered yet, I'm on the DS. Really good game, with good graphics and sound.I recommend that all DS lovers should buy this game, or Combat Of Giants: Dragons... But it's not a game that you keep playing for more than an hour everyday, like I do with COD. But a good way to spend some time on my bro's DS ;PCheers, Gianluca.

TWRP 2 Theming:
At the bottom of this page you will find the stock layouts that were used in the release. Below, we have linked a couple of guides that we hope will help you build a better theme for TWRP. Note that we've kept the stock themes fairly basic in an effort to keep the look and feel consistent and provide a safe and clear user interface. We've also kept it small to make sure that our recovery will fit on devices with smaller recovery partitions. On the sdcard, these issues won't be present.
Note that it is possible to introduce bugs into TWRP even within your XML theme. It's also possible for someone to introduce a malicious theme where a button might say "Backup" but it might actually wipe your phone. It's even possible for a theme to wipe your phone or flash a zip without you pressing any buttons. Be careful who you get your themes from.
Stock Layouts:
These stock layouts are a good start to any theme and provide a good idea of how the XML engine in TWRP should be used. You can find the stock layouts in our github here:
