Like the neighbourhood thug, the US should make others to pay for his protection services.
European militaries are essentially jobs programs (as opposed to actual military forces capable of protecting anyone). Not sure how citing those spending figures disproves the claim of free-riding...
"The claim fails for the same reasons with regard to Europe: 1. The major European powers spend a healthy 2%-plus of GDP on defence, and 2. No major European country faces any serious military threat."
Alas, the Russians understand liberal/progressive politicians the world over. No need of "serious military threat", subtle inferences will get the job done easily. It is good that you qualified your stupid comment that no "major" European contry faces threats. Otherwise, the whole of eastern Europe would stand as evidence to the contrary.
The Chinese, while not so subtle, appreciate this concept as well. If the world will stand idly by for the annexation of Tibet, as well as the crimes against humanity in North Korea and Burma, the Chinese know that their takeover of Taiwan is a matter of when, not if.
'The claim fails for the same reasons with regard to Europe: 1. The major European powers spend a healthy 2%-plus of GDP on defence, and 2. No major European country faces any serious military threat. In fact, I don't believe the phrase "free-riding on American military power" describes any actual countries in the world in the year 2010.'
What qualifies "2%-plus" as healthy? Europe is now a union, no? How did European defence fair in the Balkans? What about their handling of Georgia, not that the US shone.
To assume that other countries are paying as much now as they would if the US were not a power or fell from power seem dubious.
"Just because weak kneed, myopic liberals cant look 2 feet past their Ipad and imagine that not all humans are yet latte drinking, prius driving blog writing 25 year olds snuggly protected by the warm embrace of mother America doesnt mean real danger of conflict exists."
Boredome - exactly. The author is a decadent European with an adolescent mentality. He's ready to give his parents the finger and tell them they can keep their allowance, but when he gets in trouble, guess who he'll beg for help. The Chinese neighbors?
I'd say biggest actual military threat to trade is from pirates. And we see that many countries are pitching in on that effort, not just the US.
Piracy is an issue for the waters around Singapore/Malaysia/Indonesia as well, by the way.
Terrorism is also a concern in this regard; the narrow shipping channel by Singapore is probably an attractive target for terrorists, if they could disrupt it somehow.
"Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no armaments industry. American makers of plowshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk emergency improvisation of national defense. We have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions. Added to this, three and a half million men and women are directly engaged in the defense establishment. We annually spend on military security alone more than the net income of all United States corporations.
Now this conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual --is felt in every city, every Statehouse, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources, and livelihood are all involved. So is the very structure of our society.
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together."
America's military is funded by the magic of ever-present deficits.
"The claim fails for the same reasons with regard to Europe: 1. The major European powers spend a healthy 2%-plus of GDP on defence, and 2. No major European country faces any serious military threat. In fact, I don't believe the phrase "free-riding on American military power" describes any actual countries in the world in the year 2010."
The US spends a larger percentage of GDP on "defense" than any of these nations, and it comes out of a much larger pot. But I think in this discussion it's good to include absolute numbers as well, or at least to compare absolute numbers in some way. According to a Wikipedia entry I'm not going to go find, the US accounted for over 40% of total worldwide military spending. I think that tells us a lot more than relative GDP percentages.
I disagree with M.S. because I think there is some free-riding going on, and that a significant reduction in US military expenditures may result in increased expenditures in other countries, particularly Europe and East Asia. This is something we need to consider when discussing the necessity of reducing US defense spending, though I don't think it comes anywhere near being a strong argument against doing so.
"I can't think of any totalitarian governments that came to power by expanding social insurance schemes."
Totalitarian regimes require strong militaries but strong militaries are not infrequently the result of a need to enforce coercive economic policies. See the USSR, China, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and Cuba.
In Europe, the defense budgets of all but England are spent on maintanence instead of operational ability. A recent report showed that the German Army was 50% overweight. The French do spend a lot, but only on their colonial marines...I mean French Foreign Legion. As to who is a threat? Maybe Russia, maybe not. No one in 1927 predicted that in 1939 Germany would launch a revanchist war.
As for Asia, the American hegemony keeps Malaysia and Indonsia apart, ditto Indonisia and Australia.
And while South Korea may have 600,000 troops, its the presence of Americans and the implied threat of nuclear retaliation that keeps the million plus starving north koreans from going for round 2. I noticed you did not mention Japan's miniscule defense spending since the US basically gurantees that nations airspace and sealanes. But good for you. You pointed out that tiny Taiwan has to defend itself...gee I wonder why, perhaps because its unrecognized and repeatedly threatend by china?
Why do you think Singapore keeps conscription in place, to let the next generation of Lee play around as fieldmarshl for a couple of years before being spirited off into the PMship? No. They still fear the Malaysians. So do the Thais.
Just because weak kneed, myopic liberals cant look 2 feet past their Ipad and imagine that not all humans are yet latte drinking, prius driving blog writing 25 year olds snuggly protected by the warm embrace of mother America doesnt mean real danger of conflict exists.
The author's ignorance is truly stunning.
"South Korea, with 600,000 men under arms, currently ramping spending up to 3% of GDP despite declining North Korean capabilities?"
-South Korea doesn't spend enough because the threat from the North is so huge and so imminent. Seoul is within range of thousands of artillery pieces. NK spends its all on defence, conscription there last 20 years, it has a huge army, and the largest special forces in the world, and 90% of its forces are massed on the DMZ in permanent war footing. They are ready to go at any time. SK has a less than 2 year conscription, military training standards are low. Above all the SK strategy explicitly depends on the USA coming to its aid immediately - it has no plans to win on its own and its military is actually built around the USFK and putative reinforcements that would arrive. I'd call that free riding.
"Taiwan, which has also raised defence spending to 3% of GDP and just finished buying $6 billion worth of arms from America?"
-This is the first purchase after more than a decade of stalling in the Taiwanese legislature. Why did they stall their own arms purchase? They Taiwanese believe they are too-big-to-fail for America, and that the US will intervene immediately if China attacks. Like Korea, their military strategy assumes the US will come to their defence in case of an attack. This is partly why they dont buy enough weapons and have fallen behind in the East Asian arms race. (Remember, China is now introducing its 5th generation J-10 fighter, which is almost as good as the best F-16 model at half the price. Taiwan has an air force much crappier than the best F-16.) Like Korea, Taiwan's military training and equipment maintanence standards are low.
If you doubt my claims, please feel free to ask any Korean or Taiwanese adult male, since they served in mandatory military service and will tell you this and more.
"And perhaps the Philippines could stand to beef up its military to put down insurgents in Mindanao."
-No, it needs to beef up its defence to stop its outlying islands from being stolen by China. Google "Mischeif Reef" and read about another story you are ignorant about. Really, your ignorance is actually of journalistic proportions.
"The claim fails for the same reasons with regard to Europe: 1. The major European powers spend a healthy 2%-plus of GDP on defence, and 2. No major European country faces any serious military threat."
-I would have thought that even a journalist would be familiar with news stories about European militaries in Afghanistan and how they are faring. For example, the stories on how German NATO forces are too fat to fight and how they had to ban beer because they were getting too drunk too often. Or how the UK military is, as the UK media puts its "stretched to the breaking point". How many troops does it have in Afghanistan. 8000, or so? A deployment of 8000 troops is "breaking" the UK military. Is that a sign of a healthy miltitay? What about the fact that the European forces basically do not lead major combat operations in Afghanistan? Why not, if theyre so "healthy", in your words? European militaries are in deep trouble, because the governments spending priorities are butter, not guns.
And your claim that Europe faces no military threats. Gosh it sounds like the 1920s again and you are doing a Neville Chamberlain impression. Have you heard that Iran is building nuclear weapons, and your other putative BFFs in the middle east would probably like to follow suit. Are you so sure that Russia, middle eastern states, and even Turkey (with its massive military) are going to be such forever friends with you that Europe can afford to let its militaries decay into junk, as we now see in their Afghanistan missions?
You are deeply ignorant, dear writer. Frankly you Europeans dont deserve to free ride on America.
I noticed you neglected Japan which would undoubtedly increase defense spending without the US. Others countries also benefit from American military assurances. Without the US, South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan may feel the need to develop nuclear deterrents. Essentially, they're getting free catastrophic insurance.
I believe probably the most irreconcilable political ideas are the belief in both a strong military and a small government. Virtually all of the arguments in favor of small government before WWII were virtually only concerned with the growth of the military power. Read the Federalist and anti-Federalist papers. I tend towards this view myself, I think there are some good arguments in favor of small governments (if defined in more nuanced terms than % of GDP which I think is rather too broad a view to have an intelligible discussion about) but the most worrying area of government expansion is military and police powers. I can't think of any totalitarian governments that came to power by expanding social insurance schemes. I can think of a few where expanding military commitments was tightly linked to this.
The largest imperial power needs to maintain military hegemony to maintain trade flows?
What is this, the 1800's? There aren't large bands of pirates roaming the seas that require military power to hold at bay. The Somalian pirates are more of a nuisance than anything - shipping companies state flat-out it's cheaper to occasionally pay a $2 million ransom than actually guard all the ships that pass near Somalia. And anyways, the naval effort near Somalia has ships from - you guessed it - *the Russian and Chinese navies,* due to their desire to maintain trade flows.
Let's cut the bullshit. We don't spend $700 billion on defense due to our concern for the EU's and Japan's welfare. We spend $700 billion because:
1. There's a bipartisan consensus to spend money on defense "to keep America safe"
2. A lot of important people who are close to politicians have ties to the defense industry.
Those are the only two reasons. We don't face a real military threat. Russia took days defeat Georgia in a conventional military war. You think China is going to bomb their largest debtor?
Moreover, I have yet to here any politician warn against cutting defense spending by crying, "But the EU will be helpless!"
Following the end of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars, we could lower our defense spending to a "paltry" $300 billion and still retain the ability to defeat any large country's conventional forces without breaking a sweat. There was a persuasive argument of "free-riding" when the Soviet Union was around because the USSR had demonstrated a clear desire to spread it's influence throughout Europe by coercion, but no longer does Europe or any of our other allies face that kind of threat.

Simo was a great guest. Really good communication and very respectful with the flat. Thanks again Simo ;)
It was a pleasure hosting Simo and his girlfriend.
Communication was easy and they left my place nice and clean. Would def recommend.
From the beginning, communication with Simo was clear, easy and understanding. Simo and his girlfriend were both extremely accommodating with my schedule for key pick up/drop off. They were great guests and left my apartment in superb condition after they checked out. I'd highly recommend them as a guest to anyone!
I have a busy schedule, so it isn't always possible for me to be there to greet guests nor to be there when they leave. Everything went very smoothly with Simo and his girlfriend's stay at the apartment, as they proved to be among my many guests who get on just fine with me leaving everything prepared for their arrival and who in turn leave the place in an a nice orderly state. This respectful attention is very appreciated!
Simo you guys were the perfect guests! We hope everything went smoothly for you both... You left the place in perfect condition and we would recommend you to any host!

Our Most Recent Episodes:
On this special episode of Talking Space, we look at the launch of Orion, NASA's next manned capsule, and its unmanned maiden voyage on EFT-1. We discuss the mission itself from scrubs on December 4th all the way through a successful launch and landing in the early morning of December 5th. We look in depth at the mission itself, the goals it was to accomplish, and even analyze the NASA TV coverage of the event, which included live views of re-entry from a drone as well as onboard the capsule. We try to put to bed the comparisons between Apollo 4 and EFT-1 with the help of NASA's Orion Program Manager Mark Geyer. We also talk to a few NASA astronauts who are working on making Orion possible. Plus, as always with these launches, we have the raw launch audio as heard from just a few miles away, so get out your best headphones or crank up your car speakers and get ready for a wild ride.

On this episode of Talking Space: Rosetta and the way the Philae lander had captured the imagination of the public. Even though the lander has gone into "sleep mode', its batteirs starved for power, reports of Philae's passing may be greatly exaggerated. NASA's OSIRIS-REx team was also carefully following the journey of Philae. Launching in 2016, OSIRIS-Rex,will attempt a landing on an asteroid in the hopes of returning a surface sample to Earth. The team moves on to discuss the upcoming EFT-1 test flight. Set to go for 7:02 on 4 December. There are 8 things to look for during the Orion's flight that Jason Rhian of Spaceflight Insider profiles. So is Russia really saying do svidaniya to the ISS partnership and building their own station in 2017? Thie Russian news service RT Seems to think so. Is this fact or is this claim as IB Times thinks full of sound and fury, signifying nothing? The team takes this claim to task. Finally the panel looks at a Lunar mission for everyone. A UK based group, Lunar Mission One, is preparing a new mission to the lunar South Pole in ten years. and YOU can be a part of it.

Product description
In the past fifty years, more than $1 trillion in development-related aid has been transferred from rich countries to Africa. Has this assistance improved the lives of Africans? No. In fact, across the continent, the recipients of this aid are not better off as a result of it, but worse--much worse. In "Dead Aid," Dambisa Moyo describes the state of postwar development policy in Africa today and unflinchingly confronts one of the greatest myths of our time: that billions of dollars in aid sent from wealthy countries to developing African nations has helped to reduce poverty and increase growth. In fact, poverty levels continue to escalate and growth rates have steadily declined--and millions continue to suffer. Provocatively drawing a sharp contrast between African countries that have rejected the aid route and prospered and others that have become aid-dependent and seen poverty increase, Moyo illuminates the way in which overreliance on aid has trapped developing nations in a vicious circle of aid dependency, corruption, market distortion, and further poverty, leaving them with nothing but the "need" for more aid. Debunking the current model of international aid promoted by both Hollywood celebrities and policy makers, Moyo offers a bold new road map for financing development of the world's poorest countries that guarantees economic growth and a significant decline in poverty--without reliance on foreign aid or aid-related assistance. "Dead Aid" is an unsettling yet optimistic work, a powerful challenge to the assumptions and arguments that support a profoundly misguided development policy in Africa. And it is a clarion call to a new, more hopeful vision of how to address the desperate poverty that plagues millions.

Review quote
Praise for "Dead Aid" "Moyo is right to raise her voice, and she should be heard if African nations and other poor countries are to move in the right direction." —Jagdish Bhagwati, "Foreign Affairs " "Moyo presents a refreshing view." —Lisa Miller, "Newsweek ""A tightly argued brief . . .

2006 Mazda Mazda3 Sedan s Touring 4dr Sedan (2.3L 4cyl 5M)
Purchased our 2006 Mazda3 s - new.
Went with the Touring package to get side curtain/seat airbags and sport tires/ rims.
We have 77k miles now,
While it is good car the quality is low.
Carpet, seats, visor, rear view mirror, visors are all worn or broken. One major thing I hate is the oil filter placement.
Had to replace the drivers window/lock cluster cause that stopped working.
I do all my oil changes but to reach the filter you have to remove the underbody shield consisting of 5 bolts and numerous clips.
This car replaced our 1988 MX6 we kept for 23 years.
I did not have these problems until well after 150k on my MX6.

2006 Mazda Mazda3 Sedan s Grand Touring 4dr Sedan (2.3L 4cyl 5M)
I have had this car for a year and a half now and I really like it a lot. It feels like I'm driving a sports car because of the pep and the great handling. It has 90k miles on it and in the time I've had it I haven't had to do anything other than regular maintenance. It is very reliable and I don't mind that it doesn't get great gas mileage (I average 25 - 28 mpg with a mix of city/highway) because it is so fun to drive. The sporty/luxury mix is perfect.
In the snow and ice, one must be careful of the pep and be easy on the gas pedal when accelerating after stopping, but other than that, I've had no problems driving it in the snow.

2006 Mazda Mazda3 Sedan s 4dr Sedan (2.3L 4cyl 5M)
although i love everything about this car. i bought it for the gas milage and the gas mileage is disgusting. so now im locked into a 5 year 13k mistake.

This car is fantastic! Never gives me any problems! The seats are extremely comfy no matter how long the drive. The fuel economy has been great (about 25-28 mpg) It also has a HUGE glove compartment and huge trunk. There is so much storage space! For some reason mine vibrates when idling at a red light and jerks when going from the 3rd to 4th gear. It never has left me stranded anywhere, but when my mother drove it in the winter it left her stranded at safeway and also overheated. But I have never once had a problem. But my mothers 2007 Mazda 3 GT is smooth, runs fantastic and never has a problem. These are great cars and I would suggest buying one!

Out of college was on a budget of 15k. Bought a 2006 Mazda 3 with 45k miles on it for 12k, 14k after financing and taxes. Bought the 2.3 version, and it has been an excellent car. Great pick up for a 4 cyl. Handling is amazing, easily equals the maxima i had to trade in. Gas mileage leaves something to be desired (i average about 25). leather is fake feeling, but hey, heated leather for a 14k car isn't bad. on board GPS is ok but outdated. Bose sound system is nice but not as good as i expected (again 14k). sun roof is a nice touch. lacks torque to put you back in your seat. if you are a looking for a great, reliable, go-kart like car to drive for under 16k, look for used mazda3.

2006 Mazda Mazda3 Sedan i Touring 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 5M)
I bought this car back in 2006 and the only real problem I have had is the tires.
Read the full review
I bought this car brand new (coming out of a Mazda Millenia) with 7 miles on it. 5 years and 120,000+ miles later I am still a proud owner. This is one reliable car with nothing needing replacing with the exception of normal wear and tear items (I went 115k on the original front brake pads!). I've been through 2 sets of tires and 2 rear brake jobs that's it. It is so much fun to drive and that means a lot to someone who spends a lot of time in their car. Gas mileage has been around 25 mpg.

The driving of this car is great, handles curves very well and is all around a very fun car to drive. Gets great gas mileage. First Mazda we have owned but it wont be the last. I purchased this car from Gerald Jones Mazda in Augusta, Ga. and used Charlie Royal. He was impressed me with all the ins and outs of the car and made the process very easy. I highly recommend him and this dealership to any one looking for a new or used Mazda. I can definitely say it wont be our last Mazda.

The car drives amazing, is very comfortable, is extremely stylish for its class and price, and provides an experience that I have yet to feel in a car less than $30,000. Mazda love is hard to comprehend until you own one and realize the value you get, and the experience you get is unmatched. I bought it for the looks, fell in love with the drive, and have absolutely no issues with reliability. I've owned it a year and have already put well over 20,000 miles on it and it has had no servicing needed besides basic oil changes, ect.

The exterior look of the car is about average for an economy car. I think its a tad nicer looking than the civic and corolla. I test drove all three, and walked away with Mazda as the clear front runner. I would imagine that a Civic will typically be more reliable way down the road than the 3, but we will find out. The 3 feels sturdy (corolla did not) and it has more get-go than the civic had. I was in a car accident(vs a Trailer truck) last winter and the car appears to have recovered nicely and I'm alive to talk about it. If you are looking for an economy car, give the 3 a shot.

Alarms . . . Can I do them myself?
I would like a system that wouldn't charge me a monthly service fee.
Next . . . A motion sensor(s) for my house. . . I don't want my cats to trip the sensor. . . I would like to recieve automated phone call when someone came in the house. . .
I'm thinking if I get one of the calls I can call a neighbor and the police possibly.
What else . . .
Who sells a good system?
Yes, you can do it yourself - and receive messages - but stay away from wireless sensors/systems.
Without any endorsement intended, smarthouse.com has several home security systems available that may give you a better idea of what's out there.
Then again, if you have a "smartphone", or are always connected, you may wish to look at home video security systems.
There are several brands that record, do motion detection (setup by an onscreen matrix - which can avoid "cat areas"), email you alarms, and then you can view via the internet or your smartphone.
Again blah, blah, blah... for home video security, Costco online can give you some ideas as to what's available.

Rocker arms on Rocker Shaft: how tight
Vanguard V Twin 303777001702
I am re-assemblying my head and valves and have found the rocker arms take a decent amount of force to rotate on the rocker shaft. I took them apart, soaked a few minutes in acetone, then oiled, still feel pretty tight.
Is this normal?
Well, Briggs does not give any specs or tolerances regarding the fit of the rockers to the shaft.
If it is just so "close" that you can barely detect the slight grip between the two parts, I would not worry about it, expansion of the rocker arm when heated up may cause a much lighter contact between the two parts.
If these parts are being re-used, I would feel comfortable in knowing that they had already been in service prior with no issues. If you still feel like they are way too tight, try buffing the shaft surfaces with some 1" wide strips of 600 grit "wet or dry" auto body sand paper cut lengthwise from an 8-1/2" X 11" standard sheet of the stuff from automotive parts stores.
I would not use anything coarser than 600 grit, and be certain you thoroughly wash away any residue from your efforts before final assembly.
It may also be possible that you have inverted the shaft from its original orientation, and thus encountered a "wear pattern" that has been established already.
Rocker arms, by the nature of how they are loaded in service, only wear on 1/2 of the diameter of the rocker and of the shaft. The rocker arms wear on their lower surface (bottom half of circle) and the rocker arm shaft wears on its lower surface (also bottom half) because the upthrust of the valve springs and the camshaft/push rods causes the respective portions of each component to bear the load only on the areas I described.
If you somehow flipped the rocker arm shaft upside down, you may now be feeling some interference caused by "cold flow" of material on the rocker arms and the shaft.
Try the rocker arm shaft in various orientations to see if there is a position where the fit is a bit looser. If you find this sweet spot, assemble it this way.
This post was edited by mownie on Sun, Apr 27, 14 at 21:29
Well, I worked on the shaft and rocker arms with 600 wet/dry and I got one rocker arm to move well.
the other arm got tight whenever I put both shaft openings on the shaft. either side by itself would move smoothly. I tried different orientations as suggested by Mownie, but no improvement
when I put both ends on, all oiled up, it would go back and forth a bit then get tighter as I rocked back and forth.
I started to suspect the alignment of the two rocker arm holes and found the opening between the sides of the problem rocker a few thousands narrow, compared to the opposite side. I spread the openings 2-3 thousanths and it went on smoothly.
I have been having the hardest time trying to get a rocker arm replacement. The briggs parts diagram only show the newest style rocker.
Anyone know why I cant find a rocker for this engine? my briggs manual shows 3 styles, mine is the stamped steel with the holes for the horizontal shaft?
You might make a phone call to Briggs & Stratton to see if they can still furnish the old style.
There may not be any of that "New, Old Stock" part left.
I would guess that design had some weaknesses, so Briggs moved on from that style.
Looking in the service manual, I see the text you referred to, but I have to wonder why Briggs does not show the cast aluminum style of rocker arm in the IPL, because the IPL DOES show the old style rocker arm shaft (item 1031, B&S # 690693). Which, by the way, also fits the larger 350700 Vanguards.
Give Briggs a call and see if they can give you some relief.
yes, I will call them Monday. I did read on another thread where someone said that the solution is just to get the newer style rocker, a new stud, and a new rocker support piece and just convert to the new style. They said it would fit and and work fine on the old heads. I will ask Briggs about that also.
I saw a couple of used parts on ebay that look like my rocker arm too. I will report back what I find out.
Have a good evening!
Another route that I personally would not have a problem with would be to have the broken rocker arm straightened and welded by a competent TIG weldor (Heliarc). I'm not talking about some guy down the street with an old buzz box welder and a can of old musty welding rods. I'm talking about a sure 'nuff GTAW professional who knows how.
Tomplum, raise your hand please.
Seriously, a good TIG weldor could put that back in shape and add a bit of reinforcement by deposition of filler material and it may never give a bit of trouble.

excellent location, wonderful price/service combination - Tao
Well I think you have to know what to expect with the Loginn Hotel. The rooms are (very) small cabins but they have individual (but *very* noisy) toilets. The location is good, being a short walk from the old town, but the nearest metro station is a fair walk away. The breakfast is a basic Swedish style breakfast but it was fine for me! The real attraction with this hotel is the maritime charm of living on an old boat. It is also fairly well priced for accommodation in central Stockholm.
So if - Anonymous
The room was tiny, but this is how it works in Stockholm. It wasn't
your typical dungy type of boat, where it's cold and you can smell
the build up of growth on the walls etc. The staff was great, very, very
friendly and helpful. By far the most friendly staff on any of the boats
in Stockholm, and I have stayed on all of them. Price was decent, about
as best as you can get in the city center for your own room. I have no
real complaints about this hotel and will be staying there again. - Anonymous

Rick Perry is back, and this time he's in it to win it. Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Perry left behind the bumbling tea party conservative of 2012 and did his best to appear a reasonable, professorial moderate on environmental issues. Yet even this more polished Perry continued to flub the truth about environmental protection.
The Republican Party and the political media world are already off to the 2016 horse races. It is way too early for any real analysis of the public's mood, but that doesn't stop the oddsmaking within the Beltway. After all, the Democratic nomination race is setting up to be a snoozer, so why not get started obsessing over the Republican race?
If Jeb does run, he may face Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side. Now, a "Clinton vs. Bush" contest doesn't exactly thrill many people who are looking for perhaps a little more variety (and a little less dynasty) in our presidential choices, but it is indeed worth contemplating at this point, at least if Jeb is serious about running.
Many Democrats examining what happened in the 2014 midterms are asking, "What did the voters want?" But the right question is why only 36.4 percent of potential voters bothered to register and vote? Obviously Democrats did not give those voters a good enough reason to take the trouble. Is the Democratic Party relevant anymore?
The contest for UN secretary-general is about neither vision nor the best resume, language skills, administrative ability, or even personal charisma. It is a political decision, made principally by the Permanent 5 members of the Security Council. The result is that the "least unacceptable" candidate gets the job.

Panaji: The Congress party in Goa on Wednesday demanded that the state government should revisit its flagship Ladli Lakshmi scheme, as it is promoting discord between families.
Congress Goa spokesman Sudip Tamankar said that the scheme, which provides Rs one lakh to the girl for her marriage, is encouraging the dowry practice.
"We have received complaints that there are fights between bride and bridegroom`s family to secure that Rs one lakh, which is creating problems in marriages," Tamankar said.
Ladli Lakshmi scheme was launched by the BJP-led Manohar Parrikar government as a part of its election promise given during the last State Legislative Assembly election.
Tamankar said the state government should re-design the scheme online with the one adopted by BJP government in Karnataka where the deposit is kept in girl's account, when she is born.

We have sold almost all the items that have been produced in center by the ladies and young girls who have been taught by our volunteers in the summer. Once in a while, we have some ladies from that area come and make some handmade accessories. However, this center wasn't active this past quarter very much. It's been a great challenge to find volunteers to keep it active, putting its vision into practice.
Nimar is our man of peace in Mafraq who came to us asking for help. By loaning him 500 JD (about $705), GHNI is helping Nimar buy a sewing machine and start a small project on his own. This is such a good development and he has a great idea on how to spread hope.
In the goat project in Dafeana Village, we're having such progress work-wise and relationships-wise. We have given 8 families 14 goats this past period. We have given 5 families 11 goats in Mufaradat Village.
One goat has died, and another goat was pregnant, but it died in the night while giving birth.
Recently, we have conducted three medical days for Syrian refugees in the gathering place, Um Batma Village, and Madaba Syrian Camp. These three days included different ages of the Syrian refugees, male and female. We had a team of Americans beside a team of three doctors, whom we took to the village.
You might be surprised, but even in our part of the world there is snow. One needs to say that it is rather uncommon. We are always surprised by this cold white thing falling down the sky. In some areas, there was even 50 cm (about 20 inches) of snow, which totally stopped life activities. The schools were closed, and for some time, our Transformational Community Development (TCD) workers could not go into the villages.
Adjusting to life in an unfamiliar country can be challenging enough for those who choose to move there. For families forced to flee their homeland due to violent and ongoing regional conflict, the difficulty is even greater, compounded as it usually is by poverty and inadequate living conditions.
Imagine, then, how gratifying it is to find a means of self-support…and even better, to help support your community in the process.
The catastrophe of the catastrophe of the Syrian-Iraqi crisis worsens as more than 1.8 million people have been driven from their homes this year alone.
We entered this quiet home and were greeted with warm smiles. It felt very peaceful as we sat down on their small couch to listen to their story.
For a while now, Dr K, our key leader in Turkey, has been ill with a very serious blood disorder. We are happy to report good news about his condition!

Pruning lavender
cherokee_(7a)March 28, 2014
I recently bought a small fern leaf lavender (Lavandula pinnata), and its doing great so far under a grow light. It has a long single flower stalk on it that has not yet opened. I was wondering if I cut off the flower stalk, would it help the plant put more energy into other areas of growth?
I know next to nothing about lavender care, so please forgive me if this is a newbie question :)
