Letters to the Editor: 09.25.10
Support Ark
On Thursday, Sept. 23, I attended a fundraising event for the Ark Assessment Center and Emergency Shelter, a Corpus Christi nonprofit emergency shelter for youth. The shelter provides housing and loving care of youth, from infants to 17 years old, who are removed from their homes by CPS until foster care can be arranged.
Many business leaders, politicians, and other caring individuals representing the entire Coastal Bend area donated their time and financial support to host and participate in this event. It was inspirational to see such a broad spectrum of the community united in spirit and dedication to such a deserving ministry as the Ark.
The Ark performs a unique and vitally important function for our community. Many of the youth who are sent there experience true love and compassion for the first time in their lives through the tender care of Sister Milagros Tormo, Delma Trejo and the other staff members. It is through this care that the children realize that there is more to life than abuse, drugs, and neglect.
Other than this annual fundraising event, the Ark relies mostly on their patrons to spread the word of their ministry as a means of soliciting financial support. If you are considering making an contribution to a charity but are unsure of a worthwhile cause, please consider sharing your gifts with the Ark.
R.L. Svetlik, Sandia
Vote them out
Congressman Solomon Ortiz says yes to a debate but we all know he means no; his schedule will never permit it. Ortiz will never debate because that would expose him to his ignorance of the issues. This man has been in Congress for 27 years and he has done nothing but advance himself and his family. He does not know how to handle the current problems of the country and has no solutions for the future. His brother County Commissioner Oscar Ortiz also will not expose himself to debate. At a meeting that was arranged so constituents could speak to their commissioners, he came up with the lame excuse that he had prior commitments. Too busy to talk to the people and expose himself to his inadequacy in handling county problems. As for Jr., Texas Monthly voted him worthless: they labeled him a piece of furniture, sits there and does nothing. I truly believe that the people of this area vote for them because "Son Mexicanos." It is time we woke up and realize that we "Los Mexicanos" deserve better. Vote them all out of office.
Robert F. Flores
Ortiz cares
This has been a very busy year for Congress. Solomon Ortiz continues to work long hours in Washington D.C. for the 27th District of Texas. Some congressmen actually care about the issues that are important to this country, instead of just voting NO to everything. Mr. Ortiz is not afraid to stand up for what he believes in. As for Mr. Farenthold, I'm wondering why he removed 79 photos from his Facebook profile that he had titled "Photos from my barstool." Guess he wanted to make a good impression on the voters.

Taboos and Old Reliables
You didn't think you'd see the day when the European media was taking a harder stand than the U.S. on an important issue in the Islamic world, but that's what appears to be happening, as major U.S. media outlets are refusing to run the offending cartoons. "I don't think we would run a cartoon in this newspaper that would be deemed offensive to any religious figure," says a foreign editor of The Detroit Free Press. "We're very careful in terms of any photo or any caricature that we run." Can someone do a check and see if this paper has ever run Ted Rall cartoons?

So I'm quite interested in picking up Zyra, I do like to play an Aggressive Support in Kayle. But one of the main reasons I enjoy playing Kayle at all, is her ability to multi-task roles. You don't HAVE to use her as Support, you can go Top. Or even Mid. I like that. Now it seems Zyra has... kind of, similar flexibility? I'm not sure of her viability as a Top, but frankly I'm not rather fond of that role as is. So my question to those who have used Zyra, maybe even mained her; How viable is she as both a Mid, and Support champ? I'd like some feedback on her potential for both roles, maybe even specifics. I've obviously done some of my own research, watched the Spotlight, watched some streams - even.. God forbid, went to Lolking as horrifying as that sounds. But I've never used her myself, so all of the tips and tricks presented could be a little off. Hence I'm asking for feedback from those who HAVE used her, to see if it syncs up.
I've not played Zyra extensively because I am deeply unhappy about her glitchy seeds- going to wait until Riot fix that first. Aside from pusher, though, I can see her having potential as jungler (lol) or fighter depending on her items. Hope this helped.
Zyra is not a bloody support, she is a mid laner that for some reason people use as support..
After her nerfs she wasn't nearly as viable in mid. She's an incredible support though, intense zoning and snares. When teamfights break out, she can dish out an incredible amount of damage with her seeds/ult combo. If built ap and fed, depending on positioning, she used to be able to 1v3-5. Haven't played her since her nerf though.
what? not viable as mid? you've got to be kidding dude, i've been midding with Zyra since release and still do it without any problems, she has a huge burst and lane control + harass thanks to her plants and her decent range...
Glitchy seeds? Something I should read up on from the sounds of it.. And I know she's not actual designated Support, she is however used by some people as such. So that's what I was referring to in terms of her viability as such, what with her groundings and AoE CC and the like. So what exactly in terms of nerfs has made people seem to believe she can't Mid? I'm not being sarcastic or trolly, I don't own her yet so I literally don't know lol Did a ratio get cut or something? Range shortened? Scaling down?
Absolute 42
I recommend you watch the s3 EU qualifiers that went down this weekend. She was picked 22 times and banned 1 time out of 33 total games. Of the 22 games she was in, the team with Zyra won 16 times and lost 6. And she was played both mid and support. That should say something about her viability. Source here.
Look, what makes her viable AND strong on both position is her capacity to zone out people in lane with her plants, add to that a "30 secs free ward" (you still need to ward, but seeds are cool sometimes), and the utility of her snare and ultimate. I once duo queued Zyra mid- Amumu Jungle, our team was literally able to destroy the enemy team without them fighting back cause of the 4 secs AoE cc both ults bring together. Just my 2 cents.
Zyra requires skill to use effectively, thats why most people just use Taric to support

The Holiday Inn Express® Brand Partners With Comedian Jason Jones To Launch The Ultimate Destination For Smart Thinking
ATLANTA , June 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) [LON:IHG, NYSE:IHG (ADRs)], one of the world's leading global hotel companies, today announced the launch of the Holiday Inn Express ® brand's new Smart Thinking platform which revolves around StaySmart.com, an online hub where consumers are invited to engage with the brand by showcasing their smarts in a light-hearted and amusing way through videos, images and tweets. Leading the charge is The Daily Show's go-to correspondent and comedian Jason Jones, who has partnered with the brand to lend his Smart Thinking and sharp wit.
"The Stay Smart ® campaign is a fun and humorous exaggeration of how smart it feels to stay in a Holiday Inn Express hotel, and Jason Jones embodies the humorous ingenuity that perfectly aligns with the brand's personality, making him the ideal brand spokesperson," said Heather Balsley, senior vice president, Americas Holiday Inn ® Brand Family. "The Smart Thinking platform serves as an extension of the the brand's incredibly successful and beloved Stay Smart advertising campaign, and gives us an opportunity to invite guests to be part of the Stay Smart story, all while showcasing the Holiday Inn Express brand in an entirely new way."
The Holiday Inn Express brand understands that when you stay smart , you know stuff, and so the brand wants to give consumers the chance to share their smarts with others through popular social media outlets. Consumers can submit their Smart Thinking content in just two easy steps: (1) Create and post a Smart Thinking Vine video, 15-seconds or less YouTube video, Instagram photo or Tweet . (2) Tag content with #staysmart, so the content can be featured on StaySmart.com. Jason Jones will share his own smart and funny advice in the form of short videos and photos, as well as a call to action for consumers to share their Smart Thinking in return. While on the site, visitors will also be prompted by weekly Smart Thinking questions such as "What's the best advice your dad gave you 100 times?" or "What's the smartest way to wrap a present?" to encourage participants to help make the world a little wiser, and grab a few handfuls of inspiration at the same time.
"The Holiday Inn Express brand is known for great service, comfortable beds, all you can eat ice from machines at EVERY hotel, so I was pretty excited when they asked me to be a part of their Smart Thinking Platform," said Jason Jones. "But honestly, the real reason I decided to partner with them was for the unlimited access to cinnamon rolls from the Express Start ® breakfast bar. Those things are addictive." The Holiday Inn Express brand is also collaborating with other humorous powerhouses, including creating highly shareable and engaging Smart Thinking posts with BuzzFeed , a series of CollegeHumor original Smart Thinking videos, and several comical Vine videos with improv comedians from Second City Communications , with content for all partnerships scheduled to launch later this summer.

Sidewalk project makes walking to school safer
September 15, 2004
- Mayor Bill Haslam and neighborhood residents will celebrate today the completion of the Bearden Middle School sidewalk project with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 11 a.m. at the school.
"These sidewalk improvements are designed to provide children from surrounding neighborhoods a safe means to travel to and from school," Mayor Haslam said. "This project improves both the safety and quality of life in our city."
The project consists of 6,100 feet of sidewalk improvements between Kingston Pike and Middlebrook Pike along Wesley Road, Hampshire Road and Whitehall Road.
Another 1,800 feet of sidewalk was constructed along Middlebrook Pike between West Hills Road and Whitehall Road and between Lake Brook Boulevard and Dick Lonas Road.
Additional improvements include installing concrete curb and gutter adjacent to the sidewalks and a drainage system for the collection of storm water runoff.

- Enjoy the Ultimate 3D Experience Active Shutter Progressive 3D Method
- The display alternately shows images for the left and right eyes. The left and right lenses of the eyewear open and close in sync with this display timing to show separate images to the left and right eyes. By repeating this action at high speed, the brain perceives 3D images. And because this method displays full HD 3D images just as they are, both eyes receive 3D images in high, full-HD quality
- Smooth Reproduction of Fast Motion 1920 Backlight Scanning
- In addition to increasing the generated frames from 60 to 240 frames per second, backlight control has evolved through area splitting. The backlight's fine blinking reduces afterimages, to produce smooth, fast movements without blurring. Sports scenes, action scenes and other fast-motion images are crisp and clear
- Clear Panel Pro
- Deep black expression is made possible by a new filter that suppresses external reflections. A new backlight area control technology also divides the display into 16 portions and provides detailed brightness control to produce images with strong contrast. Night skies are crisp with deep shades of black, and the surfaces of nighttime lakes and seas are vibrant and detailed
- Vivid Color Creation
- The brightness, saturation, contrast and sharpness of colors are finely compensated in each scene. Highly vivid colors are produced with hardly any mutual interference. People's faces are also detected, and skin tones are beautifully corrected to ensure soft, natural complexions
- Web Smoother
- The blurring that often happens in web images is eliminated to produce naturally smooth motion
- 2D-3D Conversion
- Unique Panasonic technology converts 2D images into high-quality 3D images in real-time. The image depth is analyzed from the compositional, color and brightness data of each scene, to convert 2D images into naturally beautiful 3D images. In addition to ordinary TV programs, this method can be used to convert a variety of 2D images - such as Web content, Blu-ray disc media, and photos and movies saved onto SD Memory Cards - into 3D images with a high level of precision
- 3D 24p Cinema Smoother
- The system analyzes the frames before and after, and generates and inserts three new frames. By displaying images with 96 frames compared to the 24-frame original source, smooth images are produced without the blurring that is typical of movies
- Wide Viewing Angle
- With VIERA's wide 178° viewing angle, you see clear, vibrant images from every seat in the room. The backlight features a wide transmission aperture that enhances contrast between light and dark and improves response to provide smoother motion images
- 8-Train Speakers
- Eight dome-type microspeakers with reflectors deliver wide-ranging, high-quality sound. Only about 0.3" (8 mm) thick, these compact units also contribute to the beauty of the narrow-edge design
- Super Slim Subwoofer
- The subwoofer, which is mounted to the rear surface of the panel, delivers robust bass sounds. Its super slim design, with a thickness of only 11 mm, helps to keep the entire display attractively thin
- Sound Lifting Driver
- Original Panasonic acoustic-field compensation technology produces highly accurate sound imaging. Matched to human auditory characteristics, the frequency for the bandwidth in which the sound is located is adjusted and the optimal compensation is applied
- VIERA Remote App Support: Smartphone Remote
- VIERA remote app lets you use a smartphone or tablet device as a remote control. Tap and flick-based commands are intuitive. Text input is easy, too, with familiar keyboard operation. These handy devices also make great gamepads
- Free Point Operation

- Power Saving Functions in VIERA Link
- The power of each connected device is adjusted depending on usage to reduce wasteful usage
- C.A.T.S. [Contrast Automatic Tracking System]
- This detects the brightness of the room and automatically adjusts screen brightness accordingly. When the room darkens, it lowers the screen brightness and adjusts the image quality for easier viewing while suppressing power consumption
- Power Save
- This setting adjusts screen brightness to reduce power consumption
- No Signal for 10 Minutes or No Activity for 3 Hours
- This setting automatically turns the power off when there's no image signal for 10 minutes or more, or when there's no activity for 3 hours or more
- Eco Mode
- This mode automatically turns the power off and adjusts the brightness depending on VIERA's operating status. Settings can be configured by selecting Eco mode from VIERA tools
- Low Power Consumption for LED LCD TVs
- New liquid crystal materials are employed in the IPS panel, which features a high aperture ratio for greater light transmission. The transmission efficiency is also improved. Power consumption has been cut approximately 25% by combining this panel with an LED backlight that offers high brightness and power-saving efficiency. This all results in a better picture with less energy consumed
- VIERA Link
- VIERA Link interlinks the operation of various AV devices, so you can operate them all using only the VIERA remote. Setup is easy, too - simply connect the devices to each other via HDMI cables
- Media Player
- Simply insert an SD memory card or USB memory stick into the slot to enjoy previously saved photos, video clips and music on VIERA's large screen. You can also add frames and other effects to your photos and videos, and create slide shows complete with background music. A wide variety of formats are supported, so you can listen to PC-based music files and web movies right on your TV
- Game Mode
- Games are much more fun when there's no lag in operation. VIERA automatically chooses settings that provide the optimal image, so you get super-fast response and no delays. Even dark scenes with delicately rendered details are beautiful and easy to see. Game mode makes all of the game apps on VIERA Connect even more fun to play
- A DLNA-compatible VIERA makes network connection super easy. It makes content easy to share by linking equipment over a home network. Enjoy photos, movies, music and more in the living room, bedroom, or any room in the house
- Web Browser
- The browser supports HTML5 pages, so you can browse the Internet much like you do with a PC. Unlike a PC, though, the large screen allows the whole family or a group of friends to comfortably view a wide variety of content
- Built-In Wi-Fi
- It is easy to connect to the Internet or a home network by using the built-in Wi-Fi function. There is no need for cords or cables, so the layout is flexible and the room stays neat and uncluttered. Using a wireless connection for VIERA Connect and employing the DLNA function make it easy to share photos and movies

For reptile fans - a must
I like this unique bracelet, even though it is slightly heavy, and because of its shape/design can feel a bit awkward while wearing it because it hits up again things . That said, it is a bold and exotic bracelet with just enough edge to make it interesting.

noob question about female flower
Hi I have some squash varieties planted, and am just seeing the first female flowers.
Today I noticed a female flower on my cashflow squash - the blossom was laying on the ground. If you asked me to guess I think it might have been a victim of the Weimaraner racer (she thinks the garden is a great racetrack and the 3' fence is no match for her) - can you please show me what a fertilized squash does when it doesn't need the flower any more?
I ate the flower with my daughter. :) Should we go ahead and eat the immature fruit too? Will we be able to tell if it was not fertilized?
I can't show you. But I can tell you. Once fertilized, the petal part on a female blossom will wither and the fruit part will grow. If it isn't pollinated the fruit part may remain unchanged for a couple of days. But it will wither and fall off the plant eventually. If it is pollinated, and the pollination "takes," the petals will still wither and fall off, but the little fruit will grow.
Yes, you can go ahead and eat any immature fruit that you like. They're good at all stages, even if they don't "take" and grow.
When our kids were little one of their favorite things was to go out and pick male blossoms before breakfast. We'd shake them out and rinse them, to remove any hiding insects, and then we'd dip them in egg and fry them with our breakfast. Often, we'd then take those freshly fried flowers and sprinkle them with powdered sugar before serving. The children LOVED this!
Tahlequah, OK
Here is an article that you can read and it does have the pictures I think you need to see. What you are seeing is how to pollinate a gourd - same family - different color flower that's all. I hope this helps

Meg invited me to share a "Sewing 101" tutorial on her blog a while back. I share it here with you today.
I started sewing by machine when my first son was born, 18 years ago. My first project was a fabric doll for my niece. I hit some road blocks, but my mother-in-law was able to help me. Since then, I've stitched thousands of miles on my Singer and ripped out quite a few miles as well. I have learned perseverance and received much enjoyment from this wonderful hobby.
It is my hope that you will try this simple reversible tote and learn a few things along the way. The end result is a simple bag, perfect for carrying your library books. The teens love these to toss in their gym clothes or extra belongings for school or extracurriculars.
Reversible Canvas Tote Tutorial
Materials Needed:
- 1/2 yard canvas fabric, 45" wide
- 1/2 yard coordinating canvas fabric for lining, 45" wide
- 2/3 yard interfacing, Pellon 911 F or comparable
- tube turning tool
- thread
- apply interfacing
- make a fabric tube
- topstitching
1. Cut Fabric: Fold fabric so that selvages meet at the top.
2. Mark the fabric at 13 1/2 inches wide.
3. Mark the fabric 16 inches from the fold. Connect marks to create a rectangle and cut out fabric.
4. Use this folded fabric piece as your pattern for the contrasting lining piece and cut. You should now have two rectangles, each 13 1/2" x 32".
Tip: If you plan to make a lot of these bags, make a simple pattern using pattern fabric (as shown in this photo), wax paper, or freezer paper.
5. Cut two rectangles for the handles: each 3 3/4" x width of fabric (in most cases 22 1/2").
6. Interface the handles. This provides stability for the handles so that they don't crinkle up too easily. I use Pellon 911 F interfacing.
- Cut the interfacing using the handles as a pattern.
- Trim a 1/4" from one short side and one long side of the interfacing. This will help prevent getting interfacing on your ironing board.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions to apply the interfacing. I typically use a damp handkerchief and apply a hot, dry oven for 15 seconds. When the application is done I iron the handle pieces.
8. Turn handles inside out. There are a number of products you can use to do this. I use this Clover product.
Press the handle. You can stitch along the long edges of the handle, if desired. Stitch close to the edges, approximately 1/8" from the edge. Have your eye focus on the needle and edge of the fabric.
9. Sew bag: With right sides together, sew long sides of fabric. Press seams.
Tip: Pressing helps set your stitches and create a professional-looking seam. Use and up and down motion (not back and forth like ironing) to move along the length of the seam. Then press the seam to one side.
10. Repeat with contrast lining fabric.
11. Make a mock box bottom.
- Pull the fabric so that the seam is in the center and a triangle forms at the bottom of the bag.
- Find the point at which there are 3" across the base of the triangle and draw a line. Sew along this marked line.
- Trim the triangle about 1/4" from sewn edge.
- Repeat on the remaining bottom corners of both bags.
13. Insert bag with handles into the lining bag, right sides together.
14. Start at the side seams and pin the fabric together around the top edge of the bag.
15. Stitch around the top of the bag, all layers together, leaving a 2-3" opening for turning. I like to leave the opening where there is no handle. I start by back-stitching, stitch around the circle and then back-stitch at the point I stop.
16. Pull the lining fabric through the opening.
17. Push the lining fabric inside the main fabric.
18. Press around the entire top, pressing the seam allowances at the opening under. Pin the opening closed.
19. Top stitch around the top edge. First stitch 1/8" from the edge and then repeat at 1/2" from the edge.
20. Give the bag a final press and enjoy!

Long to-do list for new US parks chief
Melanie Stetson Freeman /staff/file
Yellowstone National Park, Wyo.
Jonathan Jarvis assumed the helm of America's national parks this month, but not before he made two important pilgrimages.
The first was to the home of 19th-century conservationist John Muir, in Martinez, Calif. "I stood under the trees Muir planted and hoped some of his wisdom would find me in the shade," Mr. Jarvis says of the man who helped turn national parks into a worldwide phenomenon.
The second was to Yosemite National Park, where the new park service director, his wife, and two adult children made an arduous trek up the back side of Half Dome ridge. No rangers were allowed to accompany their new boss and smooth his way to the top, per edict of daughter Leah. Each one lugged his or her own pack.
The kids wanted some "private 'dad time,' " Jarvis recalls in a phone interview, "and they didn't want me talking shop" with park personnel. The Jarvis family regards camping trips almost as sacred events. "I guess we're really no different from millions of other families."
That reverence for the vision of yore and for having a national park system available to all Americans today, rich or poor, is what has inspired this 32-year veteran of the National Park Service in making his own career ascent. He'll no doubt draw on it now as he begins to address pressing challenges facing the park system: sagging morale among some 22,000 grayish-green-clad civil servants out in the field, how to bring appreciation for the national parks to urban dwellers, and the need to catalog the effects of climate change on the parks, to name only a few.

Recipe by kirklandcook
"Cooked chicken, red grapes, slivered almonds, and pineapple chunks make a lovely savory-sweet salad that's dressed with a mild curry mayonnaise. Papaya and avocado slices add color and flavor. Refrigerate overnight for the best flavor."

3 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 pound seedless red grapes, halved
1 (15 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
1 cup sliced celery
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 cup toasted slivered almonds
1 papaya - peeled, seeded, and sliced
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and sliced
This is an excellent recipe and does taste better if chilled overnight. Using a rotisserie chicken makes the recipe SO easy. I have also added a large can of pineapple chunks, drained. Served on a large platter with papaya and avocado it makes a nice luncheon entree.
Excellent recipe even if you skip many of the ingredients. I often do a plain chicken/papaya version during the week. So unique, easy quick prep and versatile I have had this for breaky, lunch and dinner and never tire of it.

Through Sickness and Health, eHarmony Couple's Love Story Selected Most Inspirational of the Year
PASADENA, Calif., February 13, 2009—Their vows to support each other through sickness and health will carry extra significance for Oakland, Iowa couple Holly Hinkhouse and Brett Larson when they marry later this year. The couple, recently voted the Most Inspirational eHarmony Couple of 2008, fell in love under circumstances most new relationships could not endure.
Holly and Brett were matched by eHarmony just after Christmas in 2007. Attracted by Brett's great smile and the thought and detail he put into his profile, Holly decided to take a chance and initiate communication. She waited for Brett's reply, unaware that he was traveling in Egypt after the holidays and would not see her message for nearly a month.
Upon his return, Holly and Brett began communicating with each other and had scheduled their first date for early February 2008. Then, she recalled, "it hit." Brett learned he was diagnosed with a rare, aggressive form of bone cancer that affects only about two out of every 1 million people.
Even though they had only known each other a short time, the experience of Brett's diagnosis led to a friendship that brought the two closer together. They emailed every day, talked on the phone occasionally and met for lunch after Brett completed six rounds of chemotherapy treatment. Months later, and after four more rounds of chemotherapy, Brett took a chance and asked Holly if she would ever consider being his girlfriend.
"He still had four more rounds of chemotherapy to complete but he was afraid I would move on and find someone else," Holly recalled. "So, he took a chance and asked me on a date. We had been through so much together and I had never turned my heart away from him, so I was incredibly happy," she said.
Brett proposed to Holly on October 9, 2008, 22 days before he finished is 14th and final round of chemotherapy and was declared cancer-free.
"It's amazing to be in love but it seems you can't get here without listening to your heart and taking chances," Holly wrote in the story she submitted to eHarmony. "I almost closed the match. He almost let his disease control his life. Fear of losing each other almost kept us apart. None of us knows what the future holds but we are grateful for this day, this love, and this life."
Holly and Brett were voted the winners of eHarmony's Most Inspirational eHarmony Couple of 2008 contest after receiving thousands of votes from members of the eHarmony Advice community. They will be awarded a romantic 4 day/3 night Luxury Included® Vacation to any Sandals Resort.
"The show of support from our friends, family, and community during this contest has been a tremendously touching experience for us," said Holly. "It has been a joy sharing our story with others and showing just how well eHarmony can work."
"With 236 eHarmony members marrying each day, The Most Inspirational eHarmony Couple of 2008 Contest was a special opportunity to share some of the amazing stories we receive," said Greg Waldorf, CEO of eHarmony. "Each and every success story is inspirational to us and we'd like to congratulate all of our success couples for finding meaningful long-term relationships. Most importantly my congratulations to Holly and Brett for being The Most Inspirational eHarmony Couple of 2008 whose success story exemplifies the compatibility shared by couples who are matched on eHarmony."

They come from a different century. A time when rococo and wig powder ruled their everyday life. Freed from old necessities Johann Sebastian Bass exercise themselves now in the art of 'electrococo', the fusion of electro pop with a true live-band vibe and pomp of the baroque period. With the wigs carefully powdered, it is the velvet sound of the harpsichord or another time the exult melodies of phat synths or sublime choirs that illuminate contemporary dance-music in new splendor.
So give yourselves into the hands of three baroque gentlemen and let them take you on a journey into the magic of love, the devils temptation and the melancholia of longing.

I'm starting to plan a trip to hike along AT. We all know the Appalachian trail goes from Georgia to Maine. (ie: many different states along the way). When I camp each night, can I use the argument that my Tent / Campsite is an extention of my Home?? and thus be in possesion of my firearm for self defense?? I assume while hiking during the day I would need to separate the ammo and gun and put a lock on the gun. Has this discussion ever come up before? Keep in mind the AT crosses public and private land.
I know that most of the members will say "just get your ccw that covers most of those states", fine... however what about NY, NJ, Conn., Mass., and the other unfriendly ccw states.

Reader comments are listed below. Comments are currently closed and new comments are no longer being accepted.
The first & foremost thing Japan needs to do is shake of its stultifying co-dependency with Uncle Sam. Get rid off the American military bases & break free of the shackles unilateraly imposed on Japan by Imperial America, sixty-plus years ago.
Emasculated Japan needs to be emancipated from American hejemony if she hopes to liberate her economy which has remained stagnant for 25 years & counting.
Wake up from your soporific trance Japan. Self-serving Uncle Sam cares little for your wellbeing. It's too much into taking care of its national interests to bother with yours. That's the nature of the greedy, selfish & narcisistic Yankee beast, folks..
This piece actually first appeared a couple of days ago in The Economist's "Economics Free Exchange," where I posted the following and stand by it (the quote cited below was edited in the latest version, now appearing sans 'primary').
"Whatever its primary motivation, the BoJ took three modest but symbolic steps today." Sound analysis, although the psychological boost is dubious in my opinion. I think the BOJ should not have gone back to ZIRP, because it's running out of what few options it has, and of course there appears to be no compelling near-term catalyst for reversing the yen's strength in a meaningful way, something traders have recognized.
JAPAN'S economy has not been sickly since the 1950s.
In order to judge who is weak, one should examine where the number one car maker is, and where the bankrupt car makers are, and where the car makers are still receiving government help.
Japanese are becoming richer and richer. For example, they have for years treated cars not as investments, but as expendables. They even throw out houses like we throw out furniture.
Prices in Japan are dropping due to better efficiency in retailing, which leads to a lower GDP.
These figures are just statistics, as in "lies, Big Lies, and STATISTICS".
Governments like to increase GDP, because if a governor borrows a trillion dollars and steals the money, and then he buys a new yacht, the GDP goes up by 2 trillion.
But why should the average Economist reader believe that the economy has really improved?
The real way for the average man to judge the economy is to calculate how long he needs to work to afford a comfortable new home. When I was young, this was 3 years for a college graduate, and 7 years for someone working at McDonalds. Even after housing prices fell, people have to work more to buy less.
The correct phrase, please, is that the "yen is not as weak". Just because the other currencies are weaker does not make the yen strong. One cannot say a man is in good health because he, unlike his neighbors, has not yet died of HIV.
The real result of the QE is to transfer wealth to the aristocracy at the expense of the average savers.
Its said that japan economy is a paradox "its economy is weak and their currency is appreciating" I don't see why this is a paradox. Their economy is weak. Therefore, they don't import much, and that means they have a trade surplus which caused their currency to appreciate.
Japan's problems are several, though. Taxes are high. Its businesses are not competitive with each other, and its trade policy is protectionist. For some reason, those who swear by high taxes, protectionism, and regimented, anti-competitive markets can't grasp that those policies are what's holding them back, no matter how many times it is demonstrated to them to be the case. Read how America is going for protectionism.. http://businessnbeyond.blogspot.com/2010/09/obama-posses-protectionism-s...
I don't know much about economics, but on the BOJ website data on Outward Direct Investment for Close of year 2006 (JPY:USD was circa 120) to US was Yen10bln and the most recent quarter for 2010 shows outward flows of Yen774 mln. That's enough to support the strengthening of the Yen against the USD. The Japanese people are simply not finding the US of A an attractive destination for their investible fund. The Japanese savers were a big part of the carry trade now they're a strong part of its reversal.

Pew pew!
TurboTax Free Edition
Anyone use this online yet?
I started to use it today to check it out. Seems pretty cool. Anyone use this for last year's return? One thing isn't adding up for me. I selected for deductions in the drop down boxes that I had unpaid medical coverage of $1-$1,000 (lowest choice) and the same dollar amount for donations. It says that I can file a standard deduction of $5,450? Apparently I can write off interest paid on my student loans as well for an additional $673. My medical expenses and charitable donations was probably $600-$700 if that. Anyone know why this deduction is so huge? It doesn't quite make sense to me. I really don't feel like getting audited.

You call, we haul.
I used it last year, as well as paying for the e-file and the state return. It works just fine. I've used turbo tax for going on 10 tax years now, and I've never (knock on wood) been audited or had any issues yet.
The standardized deduction is probably just what someone in your income bracket with your exemptions usually takes. I know mine was historically in the high $4000 range for my standardized deductions, but I'd always do the itemized so I could write off my school stuff. If you take the Lifetime Education credit, you can write off a certain percentage of your school costs (tuition and books only I think) and you get that added to your return. I was thinking of giving the H&R block software a try this year, because I saw that it comes with 5 free e-files, but then saw that Turbotax is doing that as well. So, I'll probably just stick with what I have. |

the standard deduction is what the IRS gives you automatically....you only itemize if you can beat that (your deductions add up to be more than the $5450)
I use turbotax every year.....never had an issue in 12 years |
