Leftist Race-baiters
MSNBC's Chris Matthews, in a recent debate with former Republican National Chairman Michael Steele, called the Republican Party the "grand wizard crowd." Grand wizard is the title given to the leader of the Ku Klux Klan. It is truly misinformed to call Republicans the party of the Klan. Throughout our history, most Klansmen and most racists have been Democrats. Here are a few racist quotes from major Democratic figures.
The late Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., a former Klansman, wrote during World War II: "I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side. … Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds."
When Lyndon B. Johnson was in the House of Representatives, he said that President Harry Truman's civil rights program was "a farce and a sham — an effort to set up a police state in the guise of liberty." He continued: "I am opposed to that program. I have voted against the so-called poll tax repeal bill. … I have voted against the so-called anti-lynching bill." When Johnson had become senator, he observed, "These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days, and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness."
Chris Matthews is by no means unique among NBC's race-baiters. After NBC was caught red-handed doctoring George Zimmerman's 911 call to a police dispatcher, in an effort to make him out to be a racist, Steve Capus, president of NBC's news division, said it was "a mistake and not a deliberate act to misrepresent the phone call." That's a baldfaced lie, for it's almost impossible to make such a mistake. Furthermore, the producer who allegedly was fired remains a secret.
When Texas Gov. Rick Perry referred to our national debt as a "big black cloud that hangs over America, (a) debt that is so monstrous," MSNBC's Ed Schultz said, "That black cloud Perry is talking about is President Barack Obama." Matthews chimed in to say that Perry's vision of federalism is "Bull Connor with a smile."
In August 2009, MSNBC's Contessa Brewer was discussing a tea party rally in Arizona, where it's legal to carry an unconcealed weapon. She said: "A man at a pro-health care reform rally … wore a semiautomatic assault rifle on his shoulder and a pistol on his hip. … There are questions about whether this has racial overtones. I mean, here you have a man of color in the presidency and white people showing up with guns." All that her audience was shown were a rifle and pistol strapped to a man's back. MSNBC concealed the fact that the armed man was black and did not show the interview he gave to the reporter. Brewer knowingly deceived her audience because an armed black man didn't fit the racial narrative.
It's not just white liberals in the media who are stirring up racial animosity; they have help from black politicians. During last year's debate on the debt ceiling, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, said that argument over the debt ceiling was proof of racial animosity toward Obama. Rep. Andre Carson, D-Ind., said the tea party wishes to lynch blacks and hang them from trees. Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., said Perry's job creation in Texas is "one stage away from slavery." While appearing on MSNBC, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter referred to Trayvon Martin's death as an "assassination." Nutter had better worry about the 118 "assassinations" in Philadelphia so far this year.
To their own detriment — and that of the nation — black people are being used to further the liberal big-government agenda. Black people have been misled to think that their problems are with white people and government and that black politicians are the solution. There's not a speck of evidence supporting either vision — despite the election of a white African as president.

June 19, 2013
I've attended multiple lectures from the Brilliant Lecture Series, all of which have definitely been up to par. While Stephen Hawking caused a stir, it happens! I bought tickets to the Barry Manilow concert and surprise! It was canceled, because well, life happens. I think while everyone is so ramped up trying to create a "witch hunt" and burn someone at the stake, they are a non-profit that still put on a show, and from my personal experience, a pretty good one! People forget that they took their time, money and energy to fix this situation (even offered credit for a future production) and the show was NOT canceled! Yes, it was altered, but its a learning experience for them, i am sure. The video they showed was awesome, entertaining and hilarious, who knew Professor Hawking had such a funny bone! After the show, i heard many other patrons talk about how they were glad they decided to attend the production, and i think if you are truly a Stephen Hawking fan, you would want to attend to support him, not just to say you were in the same room as him...which is kind of creepy.
I applaud Brilliant Lectures for pulling themselves up by their boot straps and marching on to try and create more programs, which i am sure is time consuming while trying to put out so many fires at the same time.

Flaw in discounted Le Creuset ?
I'm looking at a Le Creuset round oven at Tuesday Morning that's at a pretty good price. But on the interior there are 3 small black dots. They are not chips--are actually slightly raised and smooth and shiny.
Are these more likely to be a serious flaw in the finish and a source of chipping, or some kind of drip or change in color that is still part of a good finish and just a flaw since there are dots on the creamy interior?
Obviously I could live with just colored dots but if the finish will not hold up, I would just hold out for another item.
I would take a pass on that pot. Because the dots are raised, they will interfere when you are trying to saute onions, or the like. And as you say, they could end up becoming chips.
Instead, buy a Le Creuset pot at a Le Creuset outlet store. I am linking below a list of the stores. Not only are the outlets' prices very discounted, but they also have sales several times a year, and you can get even more $ off. The selection is as vast at a LC outlet store as Bloomingdale's. If instead you try the Tuesday Mornings, or TJMaxx or something like that, the color and size selections are very limited, and the pieces are often damaged, as you have found. I bought a LC 5.5 qt. round oven at an outlet store (they had a sale for 20% off already discounted price), and I need my glasses to see the "flaw", a tiny dot on the lid. I chose the "Dijon" color (love the sunny yellow; it seems sooo french) out of the many colors there. Also, the salespeople at the outlet stores are very helpful. Why shouldn't you get the color and size YOU want, rather that something found bottom-of-the-bin?
You just missed a sale at the outlet stores for 35% off already discounted prices (it ended Dec. 31). If you do go to an LC outlet store, request to be put on their mailing list. That way you will get the postcards that announce when they have these amazing sales.
Here is a link that might be useful: Le Creuset Outlet Stores
Thanks, shannonplus--I did pass it up.
I have actually been to or near the San Marcos outlet malls several times in the past year and never went in the Le Creuset outlet there before because it was not on my radar screen--it was before I got interested in trying Le Creuset. Drats! But after reading and learning a lot from these posts and doing some comparison shopping, maybe on my next trip I will be more prepared, if the right piece comes along.

What the Puck?
An NHL game comes to Kemper but not really.
Preseason football is useless. Top players hardly appear, and when they're on the field, they concentrate on avoiding injury. Yet fans show up because these meaningless affairs are part of the season-ticket package, and swallowing the cost secures seats for real games. It's a sacrifice that's almost romantic, in a way that only sports enthusiasts could comprehend. Similarly, local hockey backers will pack Kemper Arena (1800 Genessee) at 7:35 p.m. Saturday for an exhibition match between the St. Louis Blues and the Nashville Predators. (A capacity crowd showed up for an equally insignificant bout in 2003.) In this case, people shell out for tickets because Kansas City is courting teams to fill the Sprint Center, and a strong turnstile showing builds the case. KC didn't embrace the minor-league Outlaws, but that's because this is a metropolis that won't settle for anything less than the real thing except when watching fake games. For tickets, call 816-931-3330. Andrew Miller
Run On
Will run for food.
Marathons are not really our speed. However, the perks for Saturday's Waddell & Reed Kansas City Marathon have us reconsidering things. Sure, we'd get the commemorative shirt, but we'd also get a chance at winning a one-year lease on a Mini Cooper convertible. And there's an afterparty hosted by Boulevard Brewing Company and the Freighthouse restaurants. It's true: Cute cars and free food can motivate us to do just about anything even run 26.2 miles. The race starts at 7 a.m. at Crown Center (Pershing Road and Grand Boulevard). Register online at www.waddellandreedkcmarathon.org. Rebecca Braverman

Did my first hop pickin'..... here is what I started with;
Hop pickin' set-up
Geez Louise!!! Not even a wow.....
..... how disappointing.
You guy's must be going malty on me.
Sorry S, I just saw this post. WOW!
I haven't been over to visit my hops (at a friend's house) for a couple weeks but I hope I get half as much as you. Those cones look amazing large.
Has your friend been watering them? This is the time when they need alot of water.
I will say these are pretty big this year. They bigger than they have been in the past. It seems like the very last cone on the bine off-shoot is always the biggest.
This is a kegger tub w/ about 2-3" deep....
.....with cascades.
I think your hop pole needs a viagra or you need to use your cones but at least you have a hop pole. I hate the fact that any hops i tried to grow would dry before budding
It's been so cold here, that three of my plants haven't even topped out yet. Fuggles & Cascades are flowering, but it looks like a meager harvest this year.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"
"I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
I thought about growing hops this year, I'm from waterloo, tried to find people who had grown them no luck untill now. thanks for the post and guess what i'll be doing next spring

I have created a Google Site for my organization but I am leaving. I have another owner set up for the site. We noticed this morning when he went to edit a script, the following error at the top of the screen:
You no longer have permission to access this document. If this is an error, contact the document owner.
The scripts are visible from the manage site dashboard for the new owners login. The script opens up and is visible but the "Deploy as Web App" is grayed out (even after adding a new version). If you try to copy the script, it attempts to but then has a red data storage error.
When editing a page on the web site, the new owner tries to Insert an Apps Script Gadget and none of the published web apps appear.
It is not the same issue that is listed here: Transfer ownership of a file to another user in Google Apps Script.
I think Google may have listed it as a bug about a year ago ( http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/apps-script/3rUT5XRUQ2A )
Anyone have any ideas or am I forced to send each of these to the new owner, have them copy and paste them into new files, set new permissions, and re-insert these apps on each of the affected pages?

LONDON -- About 40% of Libya's natural gas production is now shut down after an Eni complex was forced to halt operations due to armed clashes, the country's deputy oil minister said. In an interview with Dow Jones, Omar Shakmak said around 40% of Libya's natural gas output is now halted, depriving the country of production normally exported to Italy or used locally.
Eni's local joint venture was forced to shut down its Mellitah complex in Libya's Northwest following clashes between rival militia. "We did a safe shutdown because it was not safe to continue operations," Mr. Shakmak said. "We will resume operations as soon as we have full security forces under the command of the security ministry," he added.

It is most encouraging that the demonstrations have thus far led to.nc violence, and in a number of cities desire of employers to avoid hat caused full or partial concessions.

As yet the markets for terlala have not been much affected, though sales of lumber are restricted in some cities.

Reports from other cities are gener- ally favorable as to the volume of busi- ness, and bank clearings show an in- crease over last year of ten per cent. At Boston wool is stronger on some grades that are scarce, and a better demand is seen, sales reaching pounds, and yet no improvement whatever is de- tected in the market for goods.

Best known so far for his punchy and snide directorial debut, The Opposite of Sex, Roos approaches Bounce like a man with a mission -- mainly, to prove that his heart pumps more than amusing black gunk -- so it's commendable that he has sloughed off the wicked-world view that informed his previous work, to venture boldly into more conventional territory. The problem is that he has fallen directly into the most obvious of sophomore slumps, allowing his keen wit and intimate observations to be corrupted by a rather forced sense of sincerity. As he brings his screenplay only halfway to life, it's easy to wonder if the good folks at Miramax simply dusted off this competent but unremarkable script as a convenient vehicle for Affleck and Paltrow, who have already met their quota of romantic leads with the likes of Chasing Amy and Sliding Doors, thank you very much.
Following an ethereal, cloud-bound title sequence, the story opens in Chicago, as the big-mouthed, hotshot ad executive Buddy Amaral (Affleck) speeds through the snow to O'Hare Airport after closing a lucrative deal with Infinity Airlines. In the manner of business travelers everywhere, he immediately makes friends with everyone he encounters, settling down in the airport bar with a zestful agent named Mimi Praeger (Natasha Henstridge) and a floundering playwright named Greg Janello (Tony Goldwyn). Once Greg gamely suffers Buddy's merciless, frat-boy barbs -- first mocked as a ratty Let's Go! tourist, then sitting Spartan as his Whitman-inspired play is eviscerated by a dork who deems theater useless in our cinematic age -- it becomes clear that he's a decent, friendly family man and, thus, marked for death.
As the newfound pals assess the sociological value of both Mimi ("You gotta love this -- she's in organ development!") and Buddy ("Advertising -- it's like agenting, without the heart."), the flurries outside start whipping into a blizzard, and Buddy convinces a flirty, irritable airline attendant named Janice (Jennifer Grey) to let Greg fly home to L.A. in his place. One saccharine beam from Mimi ensures that two pulses are about to quicken, while one is about to stop cold.
After some nasty business involving Affleck in bed and a massive fireball slamming into Kansas, the repercussions of Buddy's libidinous choice begin to hit. Not only is he forced to shoulder the burden of wrenching guilt (which closely resembles smirking, until the suspension of disbelief kicks in), his moment of lust has cost him the faith of his stern business partner, Jim Weller (Joe Morton). Mocking the combined forces of his agency and the airline -- which have taken on the vulgar task of spinning the crash into a commercially exploitative eulogy of the victims -- Buddy dives straight into the bottle and winds up imprisoned in a Palm Springs detox center for several months. This is convenient, specifically because it allows Greg's downtrodden widow, Abby (Paltrow), time to grieve and get hungry for love again.
Much like the campaigns Buddy finds increasingly offensive along his road to recovery, Bounce reeks of board meetings, at which the compassionate, humanitarian qualities of this tandem showcase were no doubt carved and contoured. Once we trudge through some cute antics -- involving Abby's middlebrow Realtor status, her wacky rottweiler (which, miraculously, devours neither of her children) and the hopeful Buddy driving out to the home in the San Fernando Valley to check on her, only to find himself instantly head over heels in love -- the major conflict strikes: He knows who she is, but she thinks he's simply a benevolent, wealthy stranger. How is he going to tell her? Will she still love him? And, above all, why does she live in the Brady Bunch's old house? Oh well, as the classic rock tune goes, if you can't be with the one you love, love the one who's duping you big time.
Named after a philosophical pep talk from Abby's culturally challenged mother (Caroline Aaron), Bounce is supposedly about rebounding after horror and hardship, but it's really just a simple tale of rabid opportunism.
It's pretty clear why the leads were attracted to the project -- he gets to play a selfish prick learning to open his heart; she gets to cry and shake -- but their work here is miles away from convincing. (Director Roos has said of Paltrow that "she has a face like a sheet of paper," intended as praise, but quite open to interpretation.) Apart from pheromones, these two have no solid reason to come together, let alone to endure deceit and manipulation en route to everlasting happiness. As far as jet-crash romances go, it surpasses the slow ride to nowhere of Random Hearts, but, by playing the love as a given, the movie could hardly be called Fearless. If only Roos -- like the more emotionally adventurous Peter Weir -- could have taken his own advice, that an act "isn't brave if you're not scared," the story could have surprised us. Instead, we're treated to relentless posturing and bathos better left in an acting workshop.

10 Questions That Digital Signage Integrators Should Ask Their Prospective Customers
Companies considering deploying digital signage often have a list of questions they plan to ask prospective vendors. But what questions should a vendor ask of its prospective customers? Following is a list developed by Rise Vision, Inc. that will help companies be prepared for information they will need to provide in order to make their digital signage installation a success.
1. What is your ultimate goal for your digital signage installation: Do you want to grab attention? Communicate brand messages? Be able to provide instructions and emergency alerts? Offer customers a pleasurable distraction during wait times? All of the above? Let's start with the big picture so that we can make the details work.
2. Do you have a set budget committed to the project for initial roll-out and ongoing upkeep/updates?
3. What internal resources are available to you for this project, including IT and project/construction management, and what type of support will you require from your integrator and vendor?
4. Does your company have or plan to invest in infrastructure to support an in-house software platform for your digital signage system – including secure, fault-tolerant servers – or can you benefit from an ASP (Application Service Provider) model that ensures reliability and security?
5. What is the long-term expansion plan for the display system and how many total displays should the infrastructure be designed to support?
6. What types of media files do you want to display? The more intensive the files, the more processing power will be required.
7. What kinds of live information would you like to display, including time, weather, headline news, or financial quotes? Would you like to display multiple forms of information in one screen via "windowing"? This information will help us determine software, content sources, and media players required.
8. How many users will need to access the software to contribute content and schedule playlists? Will you need content approval controls over messages and playlists before they are published to displays? These questions will determine whether web-based access or a separate executable software application are the best fit for your organization.
9. Do you need, or want to be able to turn your displays into an emergency alert system?
10. What are your system monitoring requirements, and how do you want to receive notifications in the event of a failure?
If you have questions of your own you'd like to add to this list, or would like more insight, contact Ryan Cahoy at Rise Vision, Inc. at email@example.com.

The closest thing I can find on a reputable site is on ign (no jokes please) and it says
"analysts hinted at "Toy Story"-caliber graphics for the console,"
but thats far from sony saying it.
I ask because I came across this and wondered if maybe people got things confused.
Mocking people who like to mod, is like mocking people who like do-it-yourself interior decorating.
posting this because people like myself use google to find whats spyware and whats not. The first hit on google incorrectly reports conime.exe is spyware. That is only half true so I am posting this here there and everywhere. The file "conime.exe" is NOT necessarily spyware. It could also be microsoft console ime (input method editor), which is used for entering foreign characters.
if you have foreign language support in XP then the file could be from that. If not then you can nuke the file with no dire consequences.
of course, if you nuke it by accident and need it back again, go to language setting in control panel and choose the foreign language again. Xp will ask for the cd to copy the file again when you click ok.
