Dennis Kucinich on the "Fiscal Cliff": Why Are We Sacrificing American Jobs for Corporate Profits?
As President Obama meets with congressional leaders at the White House in a last-ditch effort to reach a budget deal, we speak to outgoing Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich about the so-called fiscal cliff. If an agreement is not reached in time, $600 billion in automatic spending cuts and tax increases will go into effect on January 1. But the tax increases would not necessarily be permanent — the new Congress could pass legislation to cancel them retroactively after it begins its work next year. "We've been going in the wrong direction," Kucinich says. "Why haven't we been talking about stimulating the economy through the creation of jobs? We've seemed to accept a certain amount of unemployment as being necessary for the proper functioning of the economy, so that for corporations it will keep wages low. That is baloney. We're creating our own economic vice here that is entrapping tens of millions of Americans." [includes rush transcript]
Outgoing Rep. Dennis Kucinich: With 2 Parties Failing U.S., It's on Us to Build a "Culture of Peace"
Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio is serving his last week in Congress after eight terms in office. Since 1997, Kucinich has been a leading progressive voice on Capitol Hill, known for actions including the bringing of articles of impeachment against George W. Bush for the invasion and occupation of Iraq, voting against the USA PATRIOT Act, advocating for ending the war on drugs, challenging U.S. warfare from Afghanistan to Libya, and pushing for single-payer healthcare to replace the patchwork, privatized U.S. system. Kucinich ran for president in 2004 and 2008 with a vow to create a Department of Peace. "The two-party system itself is failing the American people," Kucinich says. "We have to look at the culture of violence that we have in America and ... build a culture of peace." [includes rush transcript]
The Wilmington 10: North Carolina Urged to Pardon Civil Rights Activists Falsely Jailed 40 Years Ago
As the new year approaches, North Carolina Gov. Bev Perdue is being urged to pardon a group of civil rights activists who were falsely convicted and imprisoned 40 years ago for the firebombing of a white-owned grocery store. Their conviction was overturned in 1980, but the state has never pardoned them. We're joined by one of the "Wilmington Ten," longtime civil rights activist Benjamin Chavis, who served eight years behind bars before later becoming head of the NAACP. We also speak to James Ferguson, a lead defense attorney for the Wilmington Ten; and to Cash Michaels, coordinator for the Wilmington Ten Pardons of Innocence Project and a reporter for The Wilmington Journal, where he has been covering the activists' case.

What does it mean to study culture through the lens of childhood? This course will focus on scholarship of a historical and/or literary bent, but also delve into sociology, politics, media studies, psychology, visual culture, performance studies, material culture, and other fields. Drawing on a range of recent scholarship but also giving some attention to the development of this relatively young field, we consider such issues as the metaphorical configuration of the United States as an "infant nation" and the implications of this both for children and for nation-building; the late 19th and early twentieth centuries as the "age of the child"; psychoanalysis and children's literature; the image of the child in visual culture; race, gender, and sexuality as experienced and constructed through children and childhood; the cultural implications of children's clothing and material culture; modernism and the rise of the picture book for children; the history of American summer camps; Walt Disney, childrearing, and American national identity; and the politics of childhood. Students will write short response papers and blackboard postings, lead one discussion, present on one supplemental text and write a short review of it and write a final paper on a topic of their choosing
Participation (class discussion, response papers, blackboard postings): 25%
Leading discussion: 10%
Presentation and review of supplemental text: 15%
Final paper: 50%

There are 16/32 gb versions of all variants. D801/2/3/5/6 is just a reference to the different variants where the 802 is the international one and 801 is T-mobile?
Anyway, make sure you get the 32 gb because the 16gb only has 10 gb avaliable whereas the 32 gb has 24 gb avaliable for use.

Color is NOT bright white
Buffet is not bright white as description states. Many pieces painted as if only primed with wood peeking thru. Overall stability is ok, but not as solid as I thought it would be. Extremely unsatisfied for priced paid; returning if possible.Read More
Great purchase
I am very happy with this purchase. My boyfriend and I were able to put this together in a couple hours. Everything arrived in 3 heavy boxes that we unpacked. All of the parts made the project seem a bit overwhelming to start but the instructions were great and we didn't run into any problems putting it together. The only things that we used of our own to make the job easier were an electric screwdriver and floor sliders to move it from where we assembled to where we wanted to put it in kitchen. The shelves can be adjusted to 3 different heights if desired. This is perfect for a kitchen that's lacking storage to store away things that aren't used daily. The doors are as shown, mostly opaque but you can see a little bit through them. It looks beautiful in my kitchen, and I'm so grateful to finally have the extra storage!Read More
Very happy with the product. Prompt delivery. Item as described.Read More
Love this buffet. I use it in my living my room under the TV. It's a good mix of masculine/feminine decor styles. Great for hiding laptops, cords, mail, filing bins, books, etc. The drawers are nice and deep so I'm looking for draw organizers now to maximize their storage potential. Even though they don't make more shelves for the unit, the hardware that holds the shelves in place is at any hardware store and I'm going to take one of the shelves somewhere to see if I can get someone to match it and give me two more. There's a lot of storage space in this buffet. Can't say enough great things about it. Love it.Read More
Great buffets
A little time consuming to put together which goes with the territory. Nice heavy pieces and hardware that make up the final piece. I have a large indoor porch that has a table which seats 14 so I bought two buffets and have them side by side and they look fantastic.Read More
A very nice piece of furniture
The buffet we purchased was the first purchase on Overstock.com. We were thrilled with the free shipping and speedy delivery. It was exactly as described and very well made to put together. Takes a couple of hours to assemble but everything was included and the holes were pre-drilled right. I would defninitely purchase again.Read More
Well made, sturdy.
First order arrived severely damaged (by shipper) Replacement was immediate, super costumer service. We have put together items many times, but it still was a long day -- about 4 hours to assemble. Be patient - it pays off - product it sturdy, well made.Read More
Looks Great!
Looks great with the white woodwork in my den, and the style is perfect with the rest of my den furniture. I had looked everywhere for over a year for such a piece, and found exactly what I was looking for in just a few minutes on the web site!Read More

Hello loverofblack, This item is made of rubberwood and has been painted white. We suppose it could be refinished in black if desired. Thank you for shopping with us.
Is the back side of this buffet finished? Also, are there ways to adjust the shelf to different heights? Basically wondering if there are holes along the sides so you can adjust the shelf (or add another one if you wanted to).
Hello deconadime, The back piece of plywood is painted white but it does not look like the side or top piece. You would probably want that against a wall and not showing. Thank you for shopping with us.

Thank you for shopping with us kz200755. I hope this helps. Box A 70 Pounds Height: 8 Width: 28 Length: 75 Box B 40 pounds Height: 8 Width: 28 Length: 35 Box C 40 Pounds Height: 8 Width: 28 Length: 35

Unfortunately, it is not possible to order extra shelves and shelf mounts.
Each left and right door interior measures 19.9"w x 17.7"d x 28.1"h without shelf
I know you answered the question about the interiror dimensions of the side cabinets but I do not understand the answer. what is rdquo? and are these dimensions inches? also please give the dimensions of the drawers.
Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately, we are unable to answer the question.
What level of assembly is necessary? Just adding doors to unit or a complete peg sides, top and bottom together? Thanks.
The entire item needs to be assembled

How to Clean a Buffet
More than simple storage furniture, buffets are often a functional and decorative part of your dining room. A buffet can operate as a sideboard, credenza, or dining room storage.

Sexual Abuse Trial Set for Former Ala. Legislator
A former state legislator and high school principal is scheduled to go on trial this week on charges that he sexually abused a 17-year-old student.
Former state Rep. James Thomas is accused on a felony charge of sexual abuse and of a misdemeanor charge of having sexual relations with a student.
The student attended Wilcox-Central High School, where the 69-year-old Thomas was principal. He was placed on administrative leave after the charges were filed.
Jury selection is scheduled to begin Monday at the Wilcox County Courthouse in Camden. District Attorney Michael Jackson says testimony would likely begin Wednesday.
Thomas was charged in November 2010 with sexual abuse of the female student. He is free on a $45,000 bond.
Thomas served 28 years in the Legislature.

SIMI VALLEY, Calif – Vista Professional Outdoor Lighting announces the launch of a redesigned website featuring simple navigation for both architectural and landscape audiences.
"We designed this website to be more intuitive," said Cruz Pérez, vice president of sales and marketing for Vista Pro. "Our primary goal was to make it easier for our key customers to quickly find information about our outdoor lighting solutions. As a result of the changes we've made, our new website can help them better serve their own residential and commercial clients."
Perhaps the most visible change Vista Pro's website appears right on its homepage. Now, visitors to www.vistapro.com can immediately choose to enter either the "architectural" or "landscape" portions of the website. Both feature detailed product information, IES files, technical guides, seminar opportunities, downloads and contact information for Vista Pro representatives. Site visitors can also track orders, learn about employment opportunities and read the company's latest news.
"Because architect and landscape professionals are important audiences to us, we understand that both the products they use and their approaches to design can be quite different," Pérez added. "We feel that our new website takes into account those differences and provides those professionals with the specific information they need for continued success."
3032E and 3038E are the newest additions to the compact utility tractor line.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to the game of street hockey, and particularly to an improved hockey stick which will permit the game to be played at dusk or at night.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The game of street hockey as opposed to ice hockey is a popular pastime during the fall and winter months usually coinciding with the colder months, shorter days and the professional hockey season. Street hockey is typically played on an outdoor basketball court, tennis court, parking lots or on little traveled city streets. The object of the game is similar to that of ice hockey: to drive a puck into the opponent's goal with a hockey stick. The game can be played in street shoes and inexpensive roller skates although skates of the roller blade variety have dramatically increased the popularity of street hockey.
It is well known that the game is played either during weekends or after school before sunset. Because of the time of year in which the game is most popular, daylight to play the game, especially during school days, is at a minimum. Absent lights for illuminating the playing surface commonly found on basketball and tennis courts, street hockey can be difficult if not impossible. As daylight conditions progressively give way to night time, visibility deteriorates. Lack of visibility can be the cause of dangerous conditions if play is continued. Under dimly lit conditions, players attempt to distinguish between teammates and opponents and have difficulty judging distances from other players and their hockey sticks. Injury can occur quite easily if a player inadvertently steps into the path of another player's swinging hockey stick. Other injury can occur while players try to react properly to a hockey puck traveling at a high rate of speed. Although a game may begin in daylight many injuries have occurred attempting to play during dusk or at night before the game is concluded.
Although lighting systems for outdoor tennis and basketball courts could promote street hockey as well at night, many communities have insufficient funds to cover the substantial cost of installation and operation of such courts. Additionally, children may rather choose to play in their neighborhood streets closer to home where either no street lighting is available or where the street is only dimly lit.
The development of a method for permitting play of street hockey at night would represent a solution to a long felt need for additional playing time of a game enjoyed by many.
It is an object of this invention to provide an improved hockey stick which will improve visibility for players and provide a novel method for playing the game of street hockey at dusk, night, or any other dimly lit condition.
It is a further object of this invention to manufacture the invention economically, without sacrificing any of the performance characteristics associated with traditional hockey sticks.
Still a further object of the invention is to identify team members from opponents by the color of lights emanating from each player's hockey stick.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide a novel and uniquely identifiable hockey stick in dim light.
The novel method of playing the game of street hockey in lighting conditions less than optimal is accomplished through the incorporation of light emitting sources such as light emitting diodes (LED) or similar light emitters coupled in parallel along the length of a hockey stick. A battery positioned at the handle end of the hockey stick is used as a power source to illuminate the diodes on each improved hockey stick.
It is envisioned that players can add accessories to the illuminated hockey stick depending on how much they can afford to spend on equipment. Some of the accessories which could be illuminated by LED's or other light emitting means and powered by a battery source or other means would include the hockey puck, goal nets, helmets and articles of clothing such as uniforms or arm patches.
Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon review of the following detailed description and claims.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a hockey stick to be used for play in dimly lit or night time conditions.
FIG. 2 is a view of hockey stick taken along line A--A of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the handle portion of the hockey stick containing the power source.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the night time, street hockey embodiment of the invention illustrating illuminated hockey goal posts and an illuminated hockey puck in addition to the illuminated hockey stick.
The illuminated hockey stick provides for a method of playing street hockey during limited lighting conditions and incorporates the use of light emitting diodes (LED)'s operated by a battery power source which is fitted into the handle of the improved hockey stick located at a distal end, opposite to the blade end.
With reference to FIG. 1, hockey stick 10 and the various components are illustrated. The preferred hockey stick is made from a piece of wood having a longitudinal recess 11 on two opposing sides of the shaft 24 generally from the handle 12 to the neck 14 of the blade end 16. Handle portion 12 of the stick has a receptacle 18 which can accept two AAA size 1.5 volt batteries 20. A flexible and removable handle cover 22 covers receptacle 18 and provides a water tight seal about shaft 24 below receptacle 18. Preferably, cover 22 is made of a plastic or rubberized flexible material. Alternatively, shaft 24 may be manufactured of any similarly strong and flexible material such as anodized aluminum with a non conductive surface or fiberglass. The blade end portion 16 can be made of a piece of wood integral with shaft 24 or more preferably, it is made of a hardened plastic material and attached to shaft 24 through the use of screws or other similar connecting means. The hardened plastic blade has the advantage over a traditional wood blade in that it is more wear resistant on playing surfaces such as asphalt or concrete. A passage channel (not shown) may be manufactured into shaft 24 and utilized to allow passage of wires or electrical conductors, or access to an externally activated switch 26 when the handle cover 22 is covering receptacle portion 18.
In the preferred embodiment of the illuminated hockey stick, two parallel electrically conductive foil strips 28 run the length of shaft 24 and lay along opposite sides of the passage channel diameter to open and close a circuit forming at that location. Conductive strips 28 form parallel conductors, which when shorted in two or more places become an electrical circuit. Light emitting devices (LED) 30 bridge strips 28 at various positions along the longitudinal length of shaft 24. Soldering of LED's 30 is the preferred method of bridging strips 28 although other methods may be suitably employed.
Conductive strips 28, LED's 30 and a battery source may be added to the exterior of a traditional hockey stick and then coated to prevent corrosion and undesirable resistance. A suitable coating would be either a spray lacquer (epoxy)or a similar coating exhibiting flexible and transparent characteristics. Preferably, conductive strips 28 and LED's 30 are disposed in recesses 11 during manufacture of the hockey stick and thereafter permanently positioned in place by application of transparent lamination. Conductive strips are preferably copper foil or some equally flexible and conductive material which may be applied to the stick during or after construction. An alternate material for conductive strips 28 is lead aluminum alloy foil tape; as used in alarm systems.
Although conductive foil strips are preferably used, there is no limitation on the type of electrical connecting means utilized. As an example, copper wire may be adequately used as a substitute for copper foil tape.
The preferred illuminated hockey stick 10 has two sets of light emitting devices 30 each set having a different illumination color from the other set; however, in alternative embodiments, it is conceived that all lights could be the same or any number of multiple colored diodes. The purpose of the two sets of colors is to distinguish members of one team by one color and the opponent team members by the other color. A switch 26 coupled to battery 20 at handle end 12 of shaft 24 permits players to select one color or the other. In this manner, one stick can be used by players on either side simply by selecting the proper switch position.
It is also conceived that connecting means running along either side of the hockey stick can consist of two or more parallel strips 28 depending upon whether LED's of only one color set will be positioned per side or both color sets will be positioned on each side respectively. In the preferred embodiment, two parallel strips 28 extend along each recess 11 on opposite sides of shaft 24. Operable switch 26 will permit illumination of one color on each side of shaft 24. There is no limit to the number of LED's 30 to position per side but preferably, 5 LED's per side are utilized. Further, at least one emitting device 30 for each color is preferably located on the side of the shaft facing the direction which the blade is extending away from the shaft. Each LED 30 located on the side facing the blade end is connected to battery 20 by extension of foil conductor strips 28 to their respective diode. These emitting devices are preferably located near neck 14 of blade end 16.
FIG. 4 illustrates the additional features of the invention including a first and second pair of goal posts 40 and 42, illuminated by at least one string of LED's 44 disposed along one side thereof or along the inside of a transparent goal post, powered by a switch and battery in recessed compartment 46 on top each of the posts. An illuminated hockey puck 48 is also included that may be illuminated by LED or other conventional means to compelment the illuminated hockey sticks 10.

The Official Trailer For The Doctor Who Christmas Special Is Here!
I don't know about you, but I plan Christmas day around the Doctor Who special. This year will be big. We've seen an official image, but now we also have the first trailer. The 11th Doctor is taking a bow, and the 12th Doctor will take the stage. It looks like about every bad guy possible will appear in the episode; the trailer has Daleks, Cybermen, and Weeping Angels. If nothing else, Matt Smith is going to go out with a bang.

A gang associate found with a loaded Glock handgun in his "man purse" almost four years ago has been sentenced to 18 months in jail by Surrey Provincial Court Judge James Bahen.
Glen Sheck was arrested by anti-gang surveillance officers at a Surrey restaurant in November 2010.
The gun was found in his Louis Vuitton bag.
He was convicted in May 2012, but appealed the mandatory minimum three-year sentence, which Bahen struck down in January 2013.
His subsequent sentencing hearing had been delayed by a Charter challenge asking that the charges be stayed due to unreasonable court delays in the case.
On Thursday, Bahen sentenced him to 18 months less 17 days. Sheck is also wanted in Washington state, where he was indicted in January 2013 on 22 counts of conspiracy and money laundering of more than $5 million in suspected drug-trade profits.

The Culture Secretary, Maria Miller, addressing an audience of arts world luminaries at the British Museum last Wednesday, was never going to have an easy time of it, whatever she said. There have been good Conservative arts ministers – one thinks of Lord Gowrie in the 1980s, a practising poet able to advise Mrs Thatcher on her choice of laureate – and there have been poor ones (list available on receipt of a first-class stamp), but the greenery-yallery tendency is to write them off as Philistines from the start. Had Ms Miller offered six-figure tax-free bursaries to every avant-garde novelist in England she would still have been received in stony silence.
Every so often a brisk little controversy breaks out in the culture sections of national newspapers under the heading "What good are the arts?". The country's leading literary critic, Professor John Carey, once wrote a book of precisely this title in which he managed to prove, at any rate to his own satisfaction, that they were really of no value to anyone. But then, of course, it depends what you mean by "value". Like most Tory culture secretaries before her, Ms Miller took a distinctly utilitarian line. "In an age of austerity when times are tough and money is tight," she told her listeners, "our focus must be on culture's economic impact."
Although some of Ms Miller's detractors – notably the actor Samuel West – were having none of this, I was rather startled by the number of arts world figures who, while disagreeing with her, were approaching the debate from the Government's angle. Sir Nicholas Hytner, director of the National Theatre, agreed that "investment in the arts has a central role in bringing about a return to growth". Sir John Tusa, former managing director of the Barbican, claimed that "the research is there; what the arts do for the economy, for employment and for cities".
Cheering as all this is, it surely irrelevant to the main issue. The main function of "art", surely, is to give its participants pleasure, to heighten their sense of the kind of people they are and the world they inhabit? In much the same way, whatever most vice-chancellors seem to believe, the average university is not – or at any rate not primarily – there to produce computer programmers or lawyers or aeronautical engineers, or to help with urban regeneration. It exists to educate, which is a rather different thing.
To read the first volume of Charles Moore's biography of Baroness Thatcher – not nearly as partisan as some advance notices have suggested – is to be reminded of the importance to politicians of the personal myth. You notice this with the front-benchers of the Victorian age just as much as our own: an endless series of self-dramatising reflexes that smooth and ultimately validate their path through life. An aristocratic young lady on whom the young Mr Gladstone had his eye is once supposed to have looked out of the window of her parents' baronial hall, seen her admirer stalking deedily up the drive, and remarked to her mother: "Mamma, I cannot marry a man who carries his bag like that."
Clearly Mr Gladstone had from an early stage in his career created a persona, a crystalline vision of himself which onlookers could either embrace or disdain as they chose. The elements of Mrs Thatcher's personal myth seem to date from her Oxford days: the lonely, hard-working outsider, gazing in on the establishment from beyond the paling fence. Although she seems to have had the greatest respect for Janet Vaughan, her patronising tutor at Somerville, you wonder what Lady Thatcher's private thoughts were about the woman who later remarked that "nobody thought anything of her".
James Callaghan's personal myth, on the other hand, sprang from his non-attendance at Mrs Thatcher's alma mater. "Prime Minister of Great Britain" he observed, almost wonderingly, when news of his election was brought to him. "And I never went to a university." What soaring, private visions give succour to Messrs Cameron, Clegg and Miliband? We shall find out.
It was gratifying to learn from a survey published last week that not only is the UK a safer place, the murder rate having fallen from 1.99 per 100,000 to one in the past decade, but that I live only a few miles from the safest area of all – the district of Broadland to the north and east of Norwich. Certainly Norwich itself seems a much less violent city than it did 30 years ago, when, walking home clad in the bright blue blazer of Norwich School, you could expect to be spat on, if not actually assaulted, by "lads" from the local comprehensives.
Naturally these distinctions are relative. My father used to lament the 1970s jungle it was his fate to inhabit, while admitting that there were streets in Norwich 40 years before which the police only dared venture down in twos. He had a particularly good story about taking part in an open-air church service on the then notorious West Earlham estate and being chased away by a stone-throwing mob. As for the cause of this new-found pacifism, for once technology is working to society's benefit. However much you may dislike the sleek anaesthetising blanket of Facebook, computer games and internet-crawling, it does at least keep people off the streets.
