The nitwit owners of this place would probably argue that by not allowing any patrons or employees to be armed, they probably saved the occurrence of a dangerous crossfire. LOL
Of course, I think the patrons of the Aurora theatre, Sandy Hook school, or Lubey's restaurant, etc., would have loved a dangerous crossfire instead of multiple cold-blooded killings. But that's just my opinion.
The answer to every question in this article is because all liberals are hypocrites and only push their idiotic inequality arguments to fool people into voting for them. What's actually true is that the greater the income inequality (assuming that it's a free society where everyone works at some sort of job and no one are slaves to others) the better off everyone is! Sure, some are doing fabulously well, but the rest are doing better than if the economy sucked. On the other hand, where there's little income inequality it's because government policy makes sure that the economy DOES suck and nearly everyone (except the ruling elite) is doing equally poorly. That's the liberal/progressive/communist outcome.
The Republicans have NEVER put forth an alternate plan to ObamaCare for the Government taking over the country's medical care system, and it's a LIE to say they have! (This is what the liberals mean when they say the Republicans have offered no plan. The don't count any plans where FedGov isn't put in charge.)
Try going back to Econ 101. There is much competition in the Insurance industry. Their rate of profit is in the 3% range, lower than many other industries. If a company is sub-par, they go out of business. Although in any large industry you can find anecdotes that go against the grain, polls showed that 85% of consumers were happy with their health insurance before Obamacare. That doesn't happen if large numbers of valid claims are being denied on a regular basis. I have had severe health issues of late after being extremely healthy for years. My insurer has been easy to deal with and given much latitude in attempts to find answers to my rare and difficult issues. But while my story is just another anecdote, the overall percentage remains clear. The type of satisfaction determined by polling data only happens if the industry is doing a good job at what it is supposed to be doing. Your outrageous claims of malfeasance have no basis in fact.
This would be riotously funny if it weren't so disastrous for the citizens of this country. When you have a Chicago style management team where loyalty to the cause trumps all competence and performance, is this any surprise?
In response to:
This distresses me because although I disagree with Juan on many and most issues, he generally comes across as sincere and one who is willing to argue on the merits rather than tossing out straw men and epitaphs. It was those qualities which got him in trouble with NPR. But I guess in the end liberals just can't help themselves. Juan, the reason why libertarians, conservatives and many Republicans oppose Obamacare is because it is a disaster for the American People whether the web sit works or not.
If one is stupid enough to buy snake oil, he should be allowed that opportunity. But what started as regulations to prevent people from being duped by snake oil salesman has turned into a nightmarish plethora of licensing requirements lobbied for by whatever industry is doing a particular occupation. It's using government to cut competition, pure and simple, and should be minimized as much as possible, not expanded until all work will require expensive "training" and be done under the constant eye of various bureaucrats, most who won't know anything about what their regulating.
Yes, when I listen to Obama, Jay Carney and others, I better not be drinking coffee because it will be coming out my nose! The lies they tell are so egregious that after I'm done laughing I think, "OMG, he actually thinks anyone can believe that (fill in the blank)? Yet, obviously, many people do! I know our government schools are bad, but I continue to be amazed at the total dysfunction of so many of the people's brains. And what really gets to me is that they take down the rest of us with them. I wish it were possible to just secede.
"Here was the recommended Beltway GOP strategy:
House Republicans should vote to fund Obamacare in a clean CR. Then exploit the disaster of the rollout to show what a horror it is. This will pump up our polls and improve our field position for 2014.
Then we can pick up some seats!
Bottom line: Let's vote to impose Obamacare on America and make Democrats pay the price of the calamity we voted to impose.
Now there may be a more cynical strategy than deliberately doing permanent damage to your country to help your party.
Right now, I just can't think of it."
Great article, Pat!
There may be a better way of describing what was at the crux of this debacle. Right now, I just can't think of it.

This event happened last week in Israel. 5 family members were murdered, 2 children were in a bedroom the killers missed. A 12 year old was away at a friends house and came home to the slaughter. Why post this? Well the reaction in the Middle to the gruesome murder. There is a difference between the English and Arabic and Farsi reports.... Warning graphic pics at link, also photos of the celebrations in the Palestinian territories Islamic Jew Hatred: **GRAPHIC** Muslim Massacre Jewish family of Five, Three Year Old Stabbed in the Heart, Baby's Throat Slashed - Atlas Shrugs A film that is being censored by Islamist activist on the Internet Palestinian Terrorists Murder Family in Israel ŌĆō Including 3 Month-Old Infant The reaction in the Muslim press and the bs statements made to the Dhimmi's Hamas Praises Savage Attack on Jewish Settlers in Arabic, Denies Responsibility in English Note the comments at the end of the article and all the references to the Koran.
They talk out of both sides of their mouth all the time in Arabic and English. Hamas admitted to planting civilians near probable bombing sites in Arabic following the Gaza war. Arafat was famous for saying completely different things in Arabic. The Palestinians are well aware of how fickle Western media is and how to manipulate the sensibilities of Westerners.
I posted this a few days back of course nobody wanted to talk about it (mohammad shhhhh) I wonder what the reaction on this forum would have been if the murderer were a US Soldier and the victims were a Muslim Family. My Link http://www.patsfans.com/new-england-patriots/messageboard/12/741908-horrible.html
Not much action on this thread either (mohammad shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) lets talk about Timmy McVeigh or some other christian bastard.
Are McVeigh or other Christian terrorists ever brought up here except in the context of you and a few others constantly trying to demonize all Muslims? In this thread, there's not a lot to say. A despicable act, and 2-facedness from Hamas.
Patsfans.com search for "McVeigh": 304 hits. Patsfans.com search for "Atta": 337 hits. Inconclusiveness: epic I don't know about those other storm-trooping right-wingers, but I am interested in demonizing the ideology itself.
Of course, the majority of Palestinians (who are peaceful) immediately took to the streets to decry the decapitation of a three-month old. Patterico - The Hate That Killed Hadas Fogel Or not: Gaza celebrates; Fayyad condemns terror attack - Israel News, Ynetnews
the ideology of Muslim extremism? totally agree Unfortunately, much of what is posted here goes well beyond that.
The problem isn't that this is Muslim extremism the problem is that this is approved of by many if not most Muslims, see the approval of this savagery in the Muslim press.
Many if not most Muslims here in the US? Many if not most Muslims outside Palestine? Keep up your hate. So Christian.
I'm not a Christian Chico. I am also not in denial about the Clash of Civilizations that is occurring. You can feel free to hide your head in the sand.
BTW Chico (or anyone else who believes that Islam is a Religion of Peace) feel free to post any links to Accounts of this slaughter in Arabic, Farsi or Pashtum (sp?). Denouncing these murders. This will be a long wait I would guess.
Sure you're not. "The Clash of Civilizations" How shocking that you portray it as akin to some sort of movie epic. On the contrary, I'm just not a knee-jerk xenophobe who thinks that every next problem in the world is a threat to us all. But, hey, you keep up the good fight if it somehow fills with you with a sense of purpose.
Given that I don't speak Arabic, Farsi or Pashtum (sp?), you'd certainly be right in my case. Of course, I could post any story I came across in those languages, and you wouldn't know any better, since you're entirely reliant on the anti-Islam websites you frequent for the anti-Islam news you clearly long for.
btw, which "Muslims press" are you referring to? How do you draw the conclusion that this is a judgment on many / most Muslims - how many sources, how many stories, how many posts are you basing your condemnation of hundreds of millions of people on?
I would say newspapers, magazines or television reports anywhere from Morocco through Pakistan. BTW I read the Penguin printing of the Koran in the early 70, during a period where I read the Bhagavad Gita, Tibetan Book of the Dead, the Tao Te Ching and the Teachings of Don Juan.

7 Celebrity Outdoorsmen and Women
"Outdoorsy" probably isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you think of most celebrities. Between recording albums, starring in films and strutting down the red carpet in designer clothes, it seems like their lives are nothing but glitz and glamour. But even the biggest stars like to leave the bright lights of Hollywood every once in a while for a good outdoor adventure. With the help of Outdoor Life magazine, we've rounded up a list of celebrities who love to hunt and fish.
Luke Bryan
It probably comes as no surprise that this country boy is also an avid outdoorsman. Bryan told Wonders of Wildlife that his outdoor hobbies make him "more relatable to [his] fans." Remember the song "Drinkin' Beer and Wastin' Bullets?" It turns out he meant it.

Murrow Turning Over in His Grave
"Murrow Turning Over in His Grave" | |
Song by Fleetwood Mac from the album Say You Will | |
Released | 2003 |
Genre | Rock |
Length | 4:12 |
Label | Reprise |
Writer | Lindsey Buckingham |
Producer | Lindsey Buckingham |
Say You Will track listing | |
"Murrow Turning Over in His Grave" is the second track on Fleetwood Mac's 2003 album Say You Will. It was written and sung by Lindsey Buckingham.[1][2]
The song features Buckingham singing the two verses in a falsetto with the chorus being composed of many overdubbed vocals. There appears to be considerable studio production manipulation to give the song a synthetic and technological mood. The song's closing section features a distorted guitar solo of over 90 seconds while three separate guitars accompany.
During a live performance for a SoundStage DVD in 2004, the song was performed with only two guitars, while Lindsey Buckingham sang in his normal vocal range.
Lindsey Buckingham has said that the song was written to reflect his belief that Edward R. Murrow, an iconic journalist in the 1940s, 50s and 60s, would be greatly dismayed by the present-day media.[3] Murrow was a great believer of honesty and integrity in delivering news to the people of the world. He said "to be persuasive, we must be believable; to be believable, we must be credible; to be credible, we must be truthful."

a. treating a mixture of at least one halogenated hydrocarbon, water and hydrochloric acid to remove a major amount of aid hydrochloric acid and to produce a stream comprising said halogenated hydrocarbon, water and a minor amount of said hydrochloric acid; b. treating said stream produced in step (a) to produce a stream comprising said halogenated hydrocarbon, less than about 1% water and less than about 1000 ppm hydrochloric acid and; c. intimately contacting said stream produced in step (b) with an effective drying amount of an essentially anhydrous drying agent which comprises (i) a metal sulfate, chloride or perchlorate or (ii) phosphorous pentoxide without concomitantly removing the hydrochloric acid. Description This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 07/480,960, filed Feb. 16, 1990 now abandoned. 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to the drying of water-containing hydrocarbons, notably those hydrocarbons used in the production of chloromethanes. This invention especially relates to the drying of optionally halogenated hydrocarbons which contain both water and hydrochloric acid. 2. Description of the Prior Art The drying of perchloroethylene using a solution of calcium chloride (Chem. Abstracts, Vol. 99,177849d) and in the absence of hydrochloric acid is known to this art. The drying of chloroform CHCl3 and carbon tetrachloride CCl4, after purification thereof by extraction with water (Chem. Abstracts, Vol. 62,2227e), with calcium chloride (CaCl2), but always in the absence of hydrochloric acid, is also known to this art. Nonetheless, serious need exists in this art for a technique to dry hydrocarbons containing hydrochloric acid and water without concomitantly removing the hydrochloric acid. This problem is particularly acute in the synthesis of chloromethanes as they exit the chlorination reactor, where the chloromethanes are mixed with hydrochloric acid (in each instance that a hydrogen atom is substituted by a chlorine atom, one mole of hydrochloric acid is formed as a by-product) and with water which is introduced into the process as an impurity in the starting materials. In such process the water must be removed to prevent its accumulation and also to avoid clogging or blocking the pipelines with ice and hydrates. The hydrochloric acid is recovered and is then reclaimed by conversion into chlorine in a Deacon reaction or an oxychlorination reaction. If water is removed from this mixture of chloromethanes by condensation, then there is a risk, due to the great solubility of hydrochloric acid in water, of producing a solution of hydrochloric acid in water which is subsequently difficult to separate There is a risk that the disadvantage will be the same if it is desired to separate the water from this mixture using a drying agent. Surprisingly, it has now unexpectedly been determined that hydrocarbons containing hydrochloric acid and water can be selectively dried, while retaining only water on the drying agent. Accordingly, a major object of the present invention is the provision of a novel process for drying a mixture containing at least one hydrocarbon, hydrochloric acid and water, comprising contacting such mixture with a drying agent selected from among (i) anhydrous metal sulfates, chlorides or perchlorates or (ii) phosphorus pentoxide, until the drying agent has sorbed a major proportion of the water. The FIGURE of Drawing is a schematic/diagrammatic representation of a preferred embodiment of the process/apparatus according to the present invention. More particularly according to the present invention, although it is applicable for the drying of any hydrocarbon, it is advantageously employed to dry benzene and the alkylated or polyalkylated derivatives thereof, namely, benzene substituted by one or more linear or branched hydrocarbon chains, each containing up to 8 carbon atoms. Benzene, toluene, xylene, isopropylbenzene, styrene and ethylbenzene are exemplary of the hydrocarbons that can be dried according to the invention. The halogenated hydrocarbons can likewise be dried per the present invention. The halogenated hydrocarbon may contain fluorine, chlorine or bromine atoms, or two or three of such substituents and it may be saturated or unsaturated, that is to say, it may comprise one or more double bonds or one or halogenated hydrocarbon preferably has from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The invention is particularly useful for the drying of chloromethanes and chlorinated hydrocarbons containing two carbon atoms. Exemplary chlorinated hydrocarbons containing two carbons are 1,2-dichloroethane, vinyl chloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, 1,1,2-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene. The halogenated hydrocarbon may be a mixture of a number of halogenated hydrocarbons; it may also comprise a solvent solution thereof. The amount of hydrochloric acid is immaterial, as is the amount of water. However, the amount of water is advantageously less than 1% by weight and preferably less than 0.1%. The presence of greater amounts of water in the hydrocarbon is also envisaged by the present invention, but the invention would no longer be economically viable. Indeed, in the event of amounts essentially on the order of a few percent, or more, it is simpler to employ conventional separations such as distillation or an extraction, and then to carry out the process of the invention. The mixture treated may be gaseous, or liquid, or partially gaseous. The temperature and the pressure of the process are not critical. Thus, the process of the invention can be used to dry the starting mixture whatever the temperature and pressure available, and without having to modify the temperature/pressure. The mixture may also contain other constituents, for example chlorine. The drying agent (desiccant) is in solid form and can be easily separated from the mixture. It can be in the form of powder or of granules in a stationary bed or a fluid bed. It is a product, the function of which is to sorb only water, but neither hydrochloric acid nor optionally chlorine when it is present and, of course, not the halogenated hydrocarbon. It is an anhydrous salt which quite obviously must not react chemically with hydrochloric acid. Metal sulfates, chlorides and perchlorates are suitable. It is possible to use, for example, calcium sulfate, sodium sulfate, copper sulfate, zinc chloride, calcium chloride, barium perchlorate or magnesium perchlorate. Calcium chloride is advantageously employed. The amount of the drying agent depends on the amount of water than can be tolerated which is to remain in the mixture. A calcium chloride having a water content ranging from 0% to 25% by weight and, preferably, from 0% to 12%, is preferably used. To produce a mixture containing not more than a few ppm of water, it is necessary to use an essentially anhydrous drying agent. For example, to provide a mixture containing not more than 10 ppm of water, it is preferred to use a calcium chloride having a water content of less than 5% by weight. The amount of the drying agent depends on the total amount of water sought to be sorbed. For example, when a stationary bed is used, the drying agent in closest proximity to the inlet of the flow of mixture to be dried, first becomes saturated with water, and this saturation progresses through the depth of the entire bed. To ensure proper drying (desiccation), it suffices that adequate anhydrous drying agent, not yet saturated with water, should remain present. The residence time of intimate contact of the mixture to be dried with the drying agent is also not critical. It is advantageously less than 10 minutes and preferably ranges from 1 to 5 minutes. Employing much longer residence times is also within the scope of the invention, but this is not necessary to obtain satisfactory results. Lengthy residence times correspond to a large volume of drying agent. This is a good precaution for assuring proper drying, but such large volume can effect pressure drops which are incompatible with the other parameters of the process. One skilled in this art can very easily determine the best compromise among the variables. The present invention also features a process for the synthesis of chloromethanes by intimately contacting a mixture containing at least one chloromethane, hydrochloric acid and water, at any point in the process, with a drying agent selected from among (i) anhydrous metal sulfates, chlorides or perchlorates or (ii) phosphorus pentoxide. The synthesis of chloromethanes comprises preparing methyl chloride (CH3 Cl) and then, by chlorination, the higher chloromethanes: methylene chloride (CH2 Cl2), chloroform (CHCl3) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). CH3 Cl is prepared by chlorination of methane or by hydrochlorination of methanol. Such CH3 Cl, optionally containing a proportion of the higher chloromethanes, is then chlorinated using liquid or gaseous chlorine. At the outlet of the chlorination reactor, a mixture of chloromethanes, hydrochloric acid, trace amounts of water and possibly a minor amount of chlorine is recovered. The water is neither a reactant nor a reaction product, but is present as an impurity in the starting materials such as chlorine, and a fraction of it can remain in the CH3 Cl emanating from the methanol hydrochlorination reaction. The HCl is separated by distilling this mixture through the "HCl column". Advantage is thus taken of a favorable concentration profile of the traces of chlorine in this column to exhaust such trace amounts of chlorine, for example with the aid of UV lamps, by completing the chlorination. A mixture of chloromethanes, water and a minor fraction of hydrochloric acid which is poorly separated in the HCl column is provided as tailings. This mixture is subjected to a series of distillations to separate the various chloromethanes which constitute the desired final product and a fraction thereof is recycled to the chlorination reactor to adjust the proportions of the various chloromethanes. In a first column (downstream of the HCl column), designated a "methyl chloride column", the CH3 Cl and the major proportion of the water are taken off overhead, together with the trace amounts of HCl and of chlorine which were still present after treatment in the HCl column. At the base of this CH3 Cl column a mixture of higher chloromethanes is present which in turn is separated into its various components by distillation. Although its boiling point is higher than that of the higher chloromethanes, the trace amounts of water exit overhead because of various partial azeotropes and of the formation of more or less stable CH3 Cl hydrates. Such a process for the synthesis of chloromethanes is described in EP 128,818, GB 2,158,067, GB 2,181,132 and GB 1,456,568, assigned to the assignee hereof. The invention is advantageously applied to methyl chloride produced by hydrochlorination of methanol or by chlorination of methane and to the CH3 Cl originating from the CH3 Cl column, either to the entire flowstream or only to the proportion recycling to the chlorination reactor. The benefits of the invention include the removal of water to prevent accumulation thereof in the process and also the prevention of corrosion problems. Indeed, the simultaneous presence of water, of HCl and possibly of chlorine at the head of the CH3 Cl column promotes corrosion. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the mixture exiting overhead from the CH3 Cl column is dried upstream of the condenser and the reflux vessel. This preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the attached FIGURE of Drawing, and includes a chlorination reactor 20, an HCl separation column 30, a CH3 Cl column 40, means 50 for carrying out the drying according to the invention and means 60 for separating the higher chloromethanes. The CH3 Cl emanating from the hydrochlorination reaction (not shown) is introduced via line 1, the chlorine via line 2 and the recycled chloromethanes via line 3. The output 4 is distilled in column 30 and the HCl is collected at 5 and the tailings, containing the chloromethanes, water and a slight fraction of HCl, are fed into the column 40 via the line 6. Line 7 indicates the output of CH3 Cl, 8 the reflux and 9 the recycle. The higher chloromethanes are separated in vessel 60; conduits 10, 11 and 12 represent the output of CH2 C12, CHCl3 and CCl4, respectively. Conduits 9, 13, 14 and 15 indicate the transport of CH3 Cl, CH2 Cl2, CHCl3 and CCl4, which are combined in the flowstream 3 and are recycled to the reactor 20. The drying agent (desiccant) is preferably calcium chloride. The mixture to be dried exiting overhead from the CH3 Cl column is at a temperature ranging from 5� C. to 60� C. and preferably from 20� to 50� C. Its pressure advantageously ranges from 1 to 10 bars absolute. The amount of water can vary over wide limits; it is advantageously less than 0.5% by weight and preferably ranges from 50 to 500 ppm. The amount of HCl depends on the efficiency of the HCl separation column; it is generally less than 1,000 ppm and preferably ranges from 50 to 500 ppm. The overhead mixture from the CH3 Cl column which is to be dried may also contain chlorine. The concentration of such chlorine values varies according to the efficiency of the chlorination reactor and of the optional finishing reaction which may be carried out in the HCl column. This concentration may attain values of up to 10,000 ppm. The CH3 Cl separation column may be coupled with the CH2 Cl2 separation column, or a single column may be used having an overhead outlet of CH3 Cl and the higher chloromethanes at various side outlets, or any combination of this same type, which is well known to the distillation art. It is also within the ambit of the present invention to arrange the drier at the head of this column on the gaseous phase consisting essentially of methyl chloride. In order to further illustrate the present invention and the advantages thereof, the following specific examples are given, it being understood that same are intended only as illustrative and in nowise limitative. A drier was constituted of a glass column 0.5 m in height and 0.45 m in diameter, which was filled with 30 kg of CaCl2 granules of 3 to 8 mm over a height of 37.5 cm. The water content of the CaCl2 was 2.3%. A flowstream of gaseous CH3 Cl containing HCl, water and chlorine was passed through this bed, from the bottom upwards, this being carried out over 408 hours. The results are reported in Table I.

It was found that HCl was retained, like water, on the molecular sieve. Apparatus according to FIG. 1 was employed, in which the column 40, 800 mm in diameter, comprised 35 valve trays and operated at 9 bars absolute. The head temperature was 40� C., the bottom temperature 110� C. The drying agent, CaCl2 with a content of more than 95%, was arranged as a stationary bed in a vessel 50, 2800 mm in diameter, 5800 mm in height. The condenser was fed with the dry CH3 Cl drier output. The flowstream 6 contained: 10 to 20% CH3 Cl 50-100 ppm H2 O 100-500 ppm Cl2 50-500 ppm HCl 80 to 90% CH2 Cl2 +CHCl3 +CCl4. The stream 8 constituted the reflux of the distillation column, containing CH3 Cl, HCl, Cl2, the H2 O content of which was lower than 20 ppm. The stream 7 represents the CH3 Cl extracted from the column, the composition of which was identical to the flow 8. The stream 9 constitutes the proportion of CH3 Cl which was recycled, of the same composition as the flowstreams 7 and 8. While the invention has been described in terms of various preferred embodiments, the skilled artisan will appreciate that various modifications, substitutions, omissions, and changes may be made without departing from the spirit thereof. Accordingly, it is intended that the scope of the present invention be limited solely by the scope of the following claims, including equivalents thereof. Patent Citations

Damon Kyle Wayans, Sr. (/ˈdeɪmən ˈweɪ.ənz/;[1] born September 4, 1960) is an American actor, stand-up comedian, writer and producer, and a member of the Wayans family of entertainers. Wayans performed as a comedian and actor throughout the 1980s, including a yearlong stint on the sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live, although his true breakthrough came as a co-creator and performer on his own sketch comedy show, In Living Color, from 1990 to 1992. Since then he has starred in a number of films and television shows, some of which he has co-produced or co-written, including The Last Boy Scout and Major Payne, and the sitcom My Wife and Kids.
Wayans was born in New York City, New York, the son of Elvira, a homemaker and social worker, and Howell Wayans, a supermarket manager.[2][3][4] He has five sisters, Elvira, Vonnie, Nadia, Kim, Diedre, and four brothers, actors Marlon Wayans, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Shawn Wayans, and Dwayne Wayans. He was clubbed footed as a child. This attribute would also be given to his character in My Wife and Kids and his character on the cartoon series Waynehead. Wayans attended Murry Bergtraum High School.[5]
Damon started doing stand-up comedy in 1982. His earliest film appearance was a brief cameo as an effeminate hotel employee in the 1984 Eddie Murphy film Beverly Hills Cop. From 1985 to 1986, he appeared on Saturday Night Live as a featured performer, before getting fired for playing his character as a flamboyant gay cop instead of a straight cop on a live sketch, going against the script. In the Saturday Night Live book Live From New York, it was stated that Wayans did this largely due to growing frustrations that his sketches were not being considered for the show and increasing stress. He also appeared in the syndicated TV series Solid Gold during the 1980s as a stand-up comedian.
With his brother Keenen, Wayans created the Fox sketch comedy series In Living Color, which had a mostly African-American cast. The show went on the air in 1990. It continued running until 1994, although Wayans left the show in 1992 to pursue a film career.
After In Living Color, he starred in films such as The Last Boy Scout, Major Payne and The Great White Hype and wrote and starred in the film Blankman. He also appeared in Janet Jackson's video "The Best Things in Life Are Free" and was considered for the role of The Riddler in Batman Forever (the role went to Jim Carrey, his co-star from In Living Color and Earth Girls Are Easy).
In 1996, he produced Waynehead, a cartoon for the WB, loosely based on his own childhood growing up in a large family, starring a poor boy with a club foot. The show only lasted a season due to poor ratings. From 1997 to 1998, he was the executive producer of 413 Hope St., a short-lived drama on the FOX network starring Richard Roundtree and Jesse L. Martin.
In 1998, he starred in the short-lived comedy TV series Damon, in which he played a Chicago detective. It aired on Fox. In 1999, his New York Times bestselling book Bootleg with co-author David Asbery was published; it is a humorous compilation of his observations about family.[6]
Wayans starred in the ABC comedy series My Wife and Kids from 2001 to 2005.
In 2006, he produced and starred in the Showtime sketch comedy series The Underground, which also featured his son, Damon, Jr. He also hosted the 2006 BET Awards.
In 2011, he also added author of a serious fictional novel to his credits with "Red Hats" which is the story of a suicidal 65-year-old woman who finds friendship and happiness when she joins the Red Hat Society.
As of 2014, Wayans continues to perform stand up comedy and has developed apps including Flick Dat (A new way to send and receive business cards, photos, videos) and Diddeo (an easy way to make your own music videos).[7]
Wayans received four Emmy awards nominations for his acting and directing in In Living Color.
For his role in My Wife and Kids, he won the 2002 People's Choice Awards for Favorite Male Performer in a New TV Series,[8] and received four International Press Academy "Golden Satellite Award" nominations.
Wayans was married to Lisa Thorner; they divorced in 2000. He has four children with Thorner: sons Damon Wayans, Jr., Michael Wayans and daughters Cara Mia Wayans, and Kyla Wayans. He is the uncle of Damien Dante Wayans, Chaunté Wayans and Craig Wayans.
Wayans is a close personal friend of both NBA legend Michael Jordan and fellow In Living Color star Jim Carrey.
Wayans was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in early 2013.[9]

I purchased this based upon rave reviews on Drugstore.com. Big Mistake!! First off, I hate the smell of peppermint. Add to that the jar which makes it difficult to remove the scrub without spilling onto the shower floor. The scrub is floating in oil so you have to mix it and once you do, the texture is way too oily to do an effective job. Last but not least, it gets slippery in the shower so add danger to my rant. Definitely go for Freeman's Peppermint and Plum scrub and you'll have no complaints.
gah i hate to be the voice of doom, but I really didn't like this!
this just just way too goopey and gooey and oily imo, the scent was nice but it was just too, i dont know - "messy" (???) for me to really reach for again.
imo it really didn't slough very well either, i mean i'm talkin some major elbow-action going and i was like 'wru dead skin?' if you're in the market for a good drugstore foot scrub definitely go for Bare Foot Creamy Pumice Foot Scrub, peppermint & plum - not only is it less money but boy will it make your footsies baby soft.

This product is amazing!!! I've been on the hunt for a good foot scrub and I think I've found it in this oil based (but not too oily) salt scrub. The salt is not too harsh but it does the job and the best part is the cooling sensation it provides to your feet and legs. I use this all the way up my calves. It feels like a spa treatment and leaves your feet smooth and moisturized and cool/tingly! Great price and great packaging too.

I love this scrub -- it's the best one I've found so far. I love the oils that are in the scrub and the size of the non-sharp (not too big, not to small), um, scrubs... It's a great peppermint smell as well. My feet feel smooth when I use it and it never irritates me -- even when my feet get all "it's summer, I'm going to kill my feet with sandals" blistered. I really like this stuff and will buy it over and over.. and it's a good price too! I love this stuff. continued >>
This is a wonderful polish/scrub. This is a salt scrub that's oil based and smells like peppermint. The grains are small-It was so gentle I used it on my chest and arms. The scent has a definate Wake Up quality to it. I loved it so much, I got the Peppermint foot cream to go with it. Not a "pretty" scent, but I use this after a vigorous workout. I got this at Walgreens $2.00 off-cost me $5.00. Great product for the cost.

Twitter Declares Google Rumors 'Talk'
Twitter Declares Google Rumors 'Talk'
Nicholas Kolakowski
Posted 2009-04-06
Twitter might soon be acquired by Google, went last week's rumors. But Twitter co-founder Biz Stone has said in a blog posting that, while Twitter is indeed in "discussions with other companies," the emphasis for the moment is on building an independent company. Twitter, Facebook and other social networking sites have been in a hot cycle of acquisitions and buyouts.
Twitter co-founder Biz Stone hinted in a corporate blog posting that his company had indeed been talking to
about a possible acquisition. "It should come as no surprise that Twitter engages in discussions with other companies regularly and on a variety of subjects," Stone said in an April 3 posting on the official Twitter blog. However, he added, "our goal is to build a profitable, independent company and we're just getting started."
The blog posting, titled "Sometimes We Talk," was written in response to rumors that the search engine giant was in negotiations to snatch up the microblogging site, which allows users to post "tweets" of up to 140 characters on their page.
Google-Twitter acquisition rumors started on April 3
after Michael Arrington on the Website TechCrunch wrote that "two separate people close to the negotiations" had told him that Google was nearing a deal. Twitter had previously declined a 2008 takeover bid by Facebook. Other sites, including BoomTown, dismissed those rumors. Such an acquisition would likely provide substantial benefits to Google, if only because it would
deny Microsoft and Yahoo the microblogger as an asset.
"Microblogging is becoming an accepted new channel of online communications in addition to e-mail and instant messaging, and it is here to stay," Karsten Weide, an analyst with IDC, said in an April 3 interview with eWEEK. "Does [a Twitter acquisition] make sense for Google? They don't really need more audience reach than they already have. But they might need to keep that audience reach out of others' hands." In search of profitability, Twitter has undertaken several initiatives, including the introduction of sponsored sites such as
the Microsoft-backed ExecTweets
, which collects major executives' "tweets" for a general audience. It also plans on
launching paid commercial accounts
later in 2009. Stone also noted that Twitter now has 30 employees in San Francisco and plans on expanding. "By the way," he added, "we're hiring talented people if you want to join us."

President Barack Obama said he plans to look at the way the federal government buys technology after problems at the HealthCare.gov website marred the launch of open enrollment for insurance under the 2010 health care law.
"I, personally, have been frustrated with the problems around the website on health care," he told a small group of supporters at a political event in New York City on Nov. 4. "And it's inexcusable, and there are a whole range of things that we're going to need to do once we get this fixed -- to talk about federal procurement when it comes to IT and how that's organized."
HealthCare.gov had suffered a 90-minute outage earlier the same day because of an overload on servers and a load balancing problem, according to Andy Slavitt, group executive vice president at Optum, the parent division of Quality Software Services Inc., the lead contractor heading up fixes to HealthCare.gov.
"We expect these occasional outages are likely to continue as a natural part of the process," Slavitt said on a call with reporters.
The contractors and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are working on a tight deadline as part of a "tech surge" to put the site in working order by Nov. 30. Former administration official and health care entrepreneur Jeff Zients is leading an effort to apply a "punch list" of fixes to problems plaguing site operation. Over the weekend, the team began addressing an issue affecting the way health insurance enrollment information is transmitted to insurance carriers. Thee enrollment forms, called 834s in the insurance industry, had been arriving with bad information. Recent fixes include making sure 834s include correct health insurance plan identification numbers and customer contact information.
Another repair put the "save and continue" button in working condition, to allow users to easily log in and out of the site. Verizon Terremark, the cloud provider hosting HealthCare.gov, installed dedicated switches to prevent further outages and improve system stability.
The problems with the site do not appear to be a result of intrusions or other security vulnerabilities, said CMS spokesperson Julie Bataille. "There's no evidence to suggest security has to do with issues we are currently experiencing," she said.

When I started homebrewing, one of the things I decided to do was get most all of the regular Cooper's brewing kits and try them out one by one. I put in my two cents about the Mexican Cerveca kit in another thread, but I haven't seen any discussion review of Cooper's Draught so I thought I would give this review in case anyone is considering getting a can kit to start out with. I made this kit a couple months ago and just got around to drinking some of it last night. I made the kit with the recommended Cooper's brewing sugar, and let it ferment for 2 weeks in the primary and 2 weeks in the secondary. Bottled it and let it sit for almost 7 weeks before drinking. The result ? Well the beer is good enough, its basically a clone of Miller Genuine Draft. If you and your buddies drink regular BMC type beer, you'd probably like it good enough. Its funny, but the beer turned out almost exactly like I had hoped it would when I was making it, but in the time since I've been making and drinking my own beers, my tastes have changed enough that drinking a beer like this is good, but not exactly impressive or anything to get excited about. I bet if I opened a can of MGD and opened a can of this beer and poured them both side by side you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. That might be good or bad depending on your point of view. I don't really think I'd bother trying to make this kit again though, but if you're looking to make a clone of beer from the store - give this kit a try. If you're looking for a really great beer that will be better than that - maybe keep looking.
using corn sugar for half your fermentables often does give it that BMC mouthfeel (or lack of mouthfeel as it were). I've not been a fan of any Cooper's kit. Cheap yeast, pre-hopped extract, they encourage corn sugar for primary fermentation... Sure its beer, but its at the bottom of the totem pole in my book.
Yeah I don't think it would ever occur to me to make another batch of this kit. But on the other hand I remember when I first started making my own beer and posting here one of the things I was after was making beer that tastes like beer from the can. Seems like from reading the posts I'm not the only one who wanted to make a regular BMC kind of beer. If thats what you're after, Cooper's draught will get that for you. The only bad news is, what you end up with is not really any better than what you'd get if you just picked up a couple cases of MGD in the first place. One the one hand I'd consider it a success cause I made the beer I set out to make and it tastes pretty good. On the other hand, I've grown to appreciate better beer so making homemade Miller Genuine Draft is a bit of a hollow victory.
are there any decent Munton's extract kits out there?
have you ever tried a munton's ale? Cooper's ale?
I have not tried the Munton's Ale. I've cooked the Cooper's Ale, but I haven't tasted it yet. In a week or two when I've finished drinking the batches I'm drinking on now I will post and report/review on the Cooper's Real Ale.
I just bottled some coopers real ale today - I made it with an add-a-beer from the local brewstore (basically a 3 pound container with liquid malt extract on top and some liquid glucose on the bottom). It turned out pretty dark - I had a taste from the sample i took for the FG. It is was urprisingly light tasting a very nice flavor to it. OG was 1041 FG 1008. Ill let you guys know how it is after I open it in a few weeks.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Eiffel Tower, Seine River Cruise and Paris Illuminations Night Tour. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Very enjoyable tour, lovely to cruise along the river seine at night! Skipping the queue at the Eiffel tour was great and magical views of the city at night were worth the wait for the elevator! Coach tour was interesting but maybe a little long meaning the tour finished quite late! Make sure you eat before you set off!
EXCELLENT... Touring down the Seine, up to the summit of the Eiffell Tower and round Paris by night.. Worth every penny, and a great way to finish of my 40th birthday... Thank you Viator. #its defo a must do...
A great way to see all the sights of the city, loved the river cruise.
Very good value for money!! On our first night in Paris this was an interesting evening for us to get to know Paris a bit better than on the internet!!! Well organised and enjoyed it very much!!!
This tour was very helpful to learn about different places in Paris! It was such a good thing to do as we only had a weekend in Paris! Definitely recommend it and the tour man was very kind! We also got to skip the cues for the Eiffel Tower!
Fabulous! We booked this tour because we only had 48 hours in paris and didnt want to miss anything. We were picked up on time, the coach was lovely, the guide informative and the sights of paris at night amazing. We had our 11 year old son with us and he didnt complain once about being bored, would highly recommend this trip for families as well as couples.
We loved every minute of this tour. The weather was clear and perfect for a night under the lights in Paris!
Highly recommended!
Excellent tour with lots to do in the time given.. We would suggest you kick off your trip to Paris with this as you understand how the city iLife's and you can choose which areas to focus on during your time.
A fantastic way to see paris at night, very professional.
The tour was awesome , highly recommended , worth the price.
Worth doing - the night cruise is great
Best tour EVER, although the bus ride at the end carries on the longest until very late at night. The views of Paris from the Seine is the best views I have ever seen esp because it is at sunset, you really see Paris come to life!! UNBEATABLE VALUE
The river cruise was great. So glad we did the evening tour it was beautiful with all the lights comming on at dusk. Quite romantic. Effiel tower great in night and the bus tour of city lights was a nice way to end the evening. Good value for the price - recommend to all ages
what a great way to start. Do this tour on your first day of arrival - it will definitely set the tone. Sit towards the back (open air). We arrived in the a.m. and got in to our apt. in the early afternoon. did this tour at 6:00pm. It was wonderful. the river cruise is spectacular (don't buy the dinner one- not worth it). The Eiffel is beautiful at night but this tour takes you to the 2nd level - once there you can purchase ticket to go to its highest point - nice but beware of pickpockets (they are everywhere). the bus tour is good but its recorded w/ earphones. Same info as the hop on hop off. Bus is nice and its a nice ride. -

One-liners. The jokes are known for little more than eliciting a groan or two from you. But since Jeffery Dean came up with this handy booklet for teens, one-liners have become a handy tool. These quotes, questions, and statements will cut to the chase and spark the, "Hmmm…I never thought of that before!" section of your gray matter. Some are funny, some are convicting. Each is thought-provoking. Bring a little simplicity back to your complicated life. Dont expect the worlds problems to be solved or all of your personal troubles to immediately go away. But do look for plenty of food for thought about what really matters. By the way, the cheese that doesnt belong to you? Its nacho cheese. (A cheesier one-liner than anything youll find in this book.)
Do you live life looking back or looking forward?
But not too hard.
God has your name tattooed on His heart.
Tattoos are permanent.
Funny and deep. Surprising and smart. One-liners to put you on top of your day.
"Jeffrey Dean has a way of zeroing in on todays youth culture. He knows teens and how to communicate the love of Jesus to them in a way that captures their attention and convicts their hearts."
-Josh McDowell
From the Trade Paperback edition.

Hebrew SeniorLife created the word ReAge to reflect the breadth and depth of services we offer: providing world-class health care; building innovative senior communities; funding groundbreaking research; and teaching future generations of geriatricians.
ReAge, a combination of "redefine" and "aging," means to question everything about the aging process. Through ReAging, we are challenging conventions in order to create and implement new standard-of-care approaches that will positively impact the lives of older adults.

Kathmandu: A team of British explosives experts arrived in Nepal on Monday to assist the Nepal Army in their preparation for UN peacekeeping operations in strife-torn Mali.
The five C-IED experts have recently returned from operations in Afghanistan and will provide training in Counter-Improvised Explosive Devices, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, Route Opening and War Materiel Removal training, a press release issued by the British Embassy here said.
"The British Army shares a long and successful history of cooperation and support with the Nepal Army," it said.
"The support provided by the Nepal Army engineers showed what could be achieved if the UK and Nepal worked together," the statement said.
Mali used to be one of West Africa`s most stable democracies until a March 2012 coup, following which separatist rebels and later Islamic militants seized control of northern Mali.
They were driven into the desert after France launched a military offensive to oust them.
