Prince William chairman says Bi-County Parkway project dead
In order for the Bi-County Parkway project to proceed, funding would need to come from the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority (NVTA) or through VDOT district funding.
Both of those funding options, however, would require the parkway project to be prioritized over other regional priorities, which Stewart said was extremely doubtful.
"We simply cannot divert the limited funding we have from local and regional priorities to the Bi-County Parkway," said Stewart.
He did expressed concern, however, about growing congestion on Route 28 and on local back roads connecting Prince William and Loudoun Counties
"There is currently no good connection between two of the fastest growing counties in America," said Stewart. "At a bare minimum, Route 28 needs to be improved, and we will be asking the Commonwealth for its support in alleviating this congestion."

Hoya madness: room for a breakout?
To many members of the Georgetown community, the news that the Hoyas were seeded fourth in one of the weaker groupings (Duke, the #1 seed in Georgetown's grouping, has both good wins and shocking losses) was great – a nice chance to watch Georgetown beat up a weak team before going on to play some more difficult games.
For other fans, however, it might bring up a dreaded sense of déjà vu.
In the past 6 years, including this year, Georgetown has been seeded five times in the NCAA tournament, and every time has been seeded sixth or higher, generally reflecting the prestige of Georgetown and the Big East. In 2010, Georgetown, a #3 seed, lost to Ohio University (not Ohio State University) 93-87, despite being led by future first round center Greg Monroe. In 2011, Georgetown, seeded 6th, lost to Virginia Commonwealth University, survivor of the first "First Four" in tournament history, 74-56. In 2012, Georgetown, seeded 3rd, actually managed to beat its first round opponent, Belmont, 74-59. It promptly lost to North Carolina State, the 11th seed, 66-63. Finally, in 2013, in perhaps the most infamous of the upsets, Georgetown, a #2 seed, lost to Florida Gulf Coast University, 78-68, in the first round.
Combined with losing to Davidson during its run with Stephen Curry (despite Georgetown having both Roy Hibbert and Jeff Green), Georgetown has managed to play the unwitting Fairy Godmother to the most famous recent tournament Cinderellas. Thus, it is no surprise that Georgetown has already become a popular choice to flameout in the first round, to Eastern Washington, and very few prognosticators have Georgetown getting past #5 Utah in the second round.
Is there anything that distinguishes this team from the teams that failed to escape the first weekend of the tournament? Looking at the talent of the older teams is not helpful – teams manned by Greg Monroe and Otto Porter both lost in the first round. Relative success in the Big East Tournament has not proven a useful predictor either – the 2010 team made a run to the Big East Finals before losing to Ohio.
One major difference is that virtually all of the players have changed since that time. Of the starters playing against FGCU in 2013, only Jabril Trawick and Mikael Hopkins remain. D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera, a key bench player in 2013, has become a leader of the team this year, along with transfer Joshua Smith. Smith might make a difference – in 2013, surprisingly for Georgetown, the Hoyas lacked a traditional center, instead playing with a combination of Nate Lubick and Mikael Hopkins awkwardly playing that role.
Georgetown has traditionally found its strength from a sturdy defense, with a slower-paced, deliberate, Princeton-style offense accompanying it. The pattern has proven mostly successful in the regular season, though seems to have come up short in the tournament. After the 2013 loss to FGCU, Coach John Thompson III could not explain the upsets, saying, "I've tried to analyze it, think about it, look at it, think about what we should do differently and I don't know."
Looking on the other side of the court, the Cinderellas that have beaten Georgetown have taken different forms. VCU is perhaps most famous for its never-ending full court press, and won mostly due to its defense. On the other hand, Florida Gulf Coast was more well-known for its aggressive offensive play, and became known as "Dunk City" during its tournament run.
Eastern Washington, Georgetown's first round opponent, is from the Big Sky Conference, a small conference (though so were all of the teams that beat Georgetown, other than NC State). For the most part, rankings don't treat it kindly, but Eastern Washington did beat Indiana. Additionally, Tyler Harvey, one of Eastern Washington's players, has scored the most points in college basketball this year, and Eastern Washington is the third-highest scoring team in college basketball.
Unfortunately for Georgetown, it allows a relatively high number of three-point shots, which Eastern Washington relies on. Thus, unless Georgetown can either make a strategic shift to combat three-point shooting, otherwise disrupt their long-range shots, or count on Eastern Washington to miss more than its average number of three point shots, it could be a long night for Hoyas fans.

Stephen Petronio Company: Like Lazarus Did
Features:Price: $30
Limbs spin like swords on a roulette wheel in the dark, sexy, and beautiful Like Lazarus Did, the latest work by veteran dance maker Stephen Petronio (this is his sixth White Bird performance). The original score by NPR-darling Son Lux alternates between electronic interpretations of lost slave songs, given soaring life by the Pacific Youth Choir, to trance-inducing, pulsing rhythms that left the audience as breathless as the dancers (one particularly gripping segment, literally, involved three male dancers hoisting and tossing one of the women through the air to a score with clanging pipes). Meanwhile, Petronio himself lays corpse-like on stage, a static compliment to the themes of mourning and loss in the music.

text: All members of the Governing Council of the E.C.B. have been chosen by our elected Governments, so I don´t find anything wrong if they do their job and advise about the better ways to solve the Eurozone´s problems. It is evident that if the Eurozone is to survive in the midterm, political union is inevitable, something everybody knows. But, in the meanwhile Draghi is right that new cooperation is necessary. Even the Prime Minister of Britain (David Cameron) agrees on that. An EBA II in Frankfurt is necessary, with real powers, and close the unnecessary EBA in London, which is unuseful, a complete lose of time and money.

Cheap Thrills Exposes Human Awfulness
By Alan Scherstuhl
Traitor's man on the run is Samir Horn (Don Cheadle), an American-born mercenary who at age nine witnessed his Sudanese Muslim father being blown to bits in a Middle Eastern car-bomb explosion. The culprits are unknown, but years later, Samir is in Yemen, selling Semtex explosives to jihadists and, as a bonus, providing lessons on how to handle a detonator. "I'm going to teach you how to use them," he says, "without blowing yourself up — unintentionally, that is." It's a rare joke for the heavyhearted Samir, who has a tendency to stare off into the distance — a Cheadle specialty — mulling over, perhaps, his time as a soldier in the U.S. Special Forces, a job (and a country) that he turned his back on after a tour of duty in Afghanistan led him to become an Islamic fundamentalist.
"Is he a devout Muslim?" FBI agent Roy Clayton (Guy Pearce) asks Samir's girlfriend (Archie Panjabi). "He's a Muslim," she replies. "I don't think there's a sliding scale." Clayton can't quite wrap his mind around a Special Ops soldier turning terrorist, even as evidence pours in that he's behind a series of European bombings, including an American-embassy explosion that kills eight.
In its well-written first hour, Traitor hops from continent to continent, with Nachmanoff, in his directorial debut, nimbly juxtaposing terror-cell intrigue with moments of self-reflection from FBI men and bad guys alike. The screenwriter gives the best lines to the bad guys, including a cell leader (Raad Rawi) who sips expensive wine in French cafes and shakes his head at these foolish Americans. "Once upon a time, it was the Americans who were terrorists against the British," he says. "They've forgotten their history." Beyond such talk, the filmmaker steers clear of present-day politics, never mentioning Bush or Iraq or even the CIA, focusing instead on the unruffled procedural professionalism of the FBI agents pursuing Samir.
In Europe, those FBI guys (including Neal McDonough as Clayton's partner) are on their game, but they seem to get dumber once they return to America. Realism and insight go out the window as soon as Samir crosses the U.S. border — oh so easily — to set in motion one last big terror plot. Faintly, in the distance, the ghost of The Day After Tomorrow begins to stir.
Cheadle, who has a gift for playing outsized personalities — like D.C. DJ Petey Greene from last year's Talk to Me, or the hyperactive killer in 1995's great Devil in a Blue Dress — is stiff and self-conscious here, as if it's taking all his concentration to keep Samir's convoluted backstory straight in his head. He isn't helped by the spy-novel goofiness of the terrorist's final plan, which calls to mind a similar scheme propelling Don Siegel's far superior 1977 thriller Telefon, in which a rogue KGB agent travels across America activating deep-cover Russian agents with detonator skills of their own. Nachmanoff (and co-scenarist Martin?) has devised a nifty last-minute twist to the concept, but he appears to take little pleasure in the telling — almost as if he's embarrassed to be having fun with a subject as serious as terror. Creating an ingenious mad bomber isn't quite the thrill it used to be.

Russia's hockey-team charters notorious
WHILE chartered jets for NHL teams in North America are often luxurious aircraft that allow players to travel safely and comfortably, according to former KHL players, the planes teams across Russia use are anything but.
Former Ottawa Senators player Jamie Rivers played for the CSKA Moscow in the Kontinental Hockey League four years ago. He said every trip he took aboard the team's plane during the five months he spent overseas left him "white-knuckled."
"There were a lot of flights we went on where I put in the iPod and tried to go to sleep and just figured, well, if we go down, we go down, I don't want to know about it," he said.
While Rivers said he doesn't know what the Yakovlev Yak-42 jet was like that crashed Wednesday killing at least 43 people -- many of them members of Russia's Yaroslavl Lokomotiv hockey team -- the aircraft he flew in Russia were often old cargo planes that had been modified to accommodate passengers.
"Every seat that was bolted into the floor had a different distance from the seat in front of it, so some rows were kind of normal and some rows you had to sit sideways because your knees were banging into the chair in front of you," he said.
Rivers said at times when the plane was experiencing turbulence, overhead shelving would fall off and parts inside the plane would rattle.
"It really seemed like every takeoff and landing was a coin toss, really," he said.
Phoenix Coyotes assistant coach Dave King became familiar with the intricacies of Russian air travel after a year coaching Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the KHL. He said Yaroslavl Lokomotiv coach Brad McCrimmon -- who was killed in Wednesday's crash -- recently asked King about his experiences flying in Russia.
"He wanted all kinds of information," King said. "He'd read my book (A King in Russia: A Year in the Russian Super League) and he said 'Kinger, tell me about Pterodactyl Air.'
"I told him 'Brad, the one thing... that made me nervous over there was the charters. Because the planes are older, it's old equipment and I honestly don't know how sound some of it is.'
"We talked about it a few times. How uneasy I was.''
The safety of air travel in Russia has been a hot-button issue in recent years.
A 2006 safety report from the International Air Transport Association found Russia and members of the Commonwealth of Independent States had an accident rate 13 times higher than the global average. Statistics compiled by the Aviation Safety Network identify Russia as the second-worst geographical region for fatal airplane crashes, behind the United States.
While IATA safety reports in 2009 and 2010 show Russia and the CIS's accident rate fell well below the global average, they haven't yet calculated statistics for 2011.
The plane that crashed Wednesday was chartered by the Lokomotiv hockey team and was en route to Minsk, the capital of Belarus, when it crashed two kilometres past the runway at the Yaroslavl Airport.

A Winnipeg native's experience
FORMER NHL defenceman Bryan Muir appeared in 23 games for Dynamo Minsk during the 2008-09 season and recalls travelling on a TU-134A plane that was built in 1962. While some of his Russian teammates were unfazed by its condition, the Winnipeg native never felt completely comfortable.
"We were kind of sitting there going 'holy smokes' because you're used to North America and the standards and everything that goes along with it," Muir said in an interview. "I looked at the doorway and there's this big crack with the aluminum riveted over the top of it.
"I'm just sitting there saying to myself 'Oh my god' -- just saying a prayer when I walked on the plane every time."

Former President Clinton said Thursday that he is to blame for his administration's failed health care plan, not his wife, who spearheaded the effort.
Clinton was asked about the plan during a campaign event, where he spoke to about 600 people crowded into a YMCA gymnasium. The health care effort was led by then-first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, now a New York senator and candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination.
"She has taken the rap for some of the problems we had with health care the last time that were far more my fault than hers," the former president said.
He said part of the problem was a lack of money to finance the health care expansion. Money could be available this time to pay for expanded health care, such as the universal health care plan Hillary Clinton has proposed.
"This time, when you let the tax cuts for upper-income people expire, it'll create a pool of money that wasn't there last time," Bill Clinton said. "We told her she had to get to universal coverage and there would be no new money. She had to figure out how to do it."
Clinton added that his wife's plan faced opposition in Congress, in part, because they had an attitude of "just say no to Bill Clinton."
When asked by a reporter about the former president's comments, Sen. Barack Obama, a rival for the presidential nomination, said Hillary Clinton shouldn't tout her experience and then not take responsibility for the failures.
"If part of your basis for experience is the work you did on health care, then presumably when it didn't work out, that's part of the experience as well," Obama said during a brief stop outside a convenience store and gas station in Albia.
"We're focused on trying to deliver a message of the kind of president I would be and why I think I would be the best nominee for the Democratic Party," Obama said. "My understanding is that President Clinton is not on the ballot."

Where do we start? Rafael Nadal got knocked out Monday. Maria Sharapova lost… » 6/26/13 3:44pm 6/26/13 3:44pm
The best pre-Wimbledon storyline not involving the Serena-Sharapova "black heart" spat was the totally tantalizing quarterfinal: Federer vs. Rafa. They've met only twice in a Grand Slam in the last four years, and they haven't played each other at Wimbledon since the '08 classic. Finally, the thinking went, we'd get… » 6/24/13 1:26pm 6/24/13 1:26pm
There was never any doubt. Third-seeded Rafa Nadal just bested fellow Spaniard David Ferrer in straight sets, 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 to win the French Open title. It was Nadal's eighth French Open win—a record—and the 27-year-old now has 12 Grand Slams. Ferrer, seeded fourth, did well to make it to the final, but as Nadal… » 6/09/13 12:12pm 6/09/13 12:12pm
Rafa Nadal is playing David Ferrer in the second set of the French Open championship right now. Watch it here. » 6/09/13 10:10am 6/09/13 10:10am
Well, tomorrow is the big day! Novak Djokovic and Rafa Nadal. The semifinal that's effectively the French Final. The 7-time French champion versus the guy who has won every Grand Slam except this one. Tennis's most exciting rivalry. It has everything, except now you will miss most or all of it. » 6/06/13 11:47am 6/06/13 11:47am
You could argue the turning point of the 2012 U.S. Open—which starts today—already happened. Well, three turning points, actually. » 8/27/12 2:55pm 8/27/12 2:55pm
Rafael Nadal announced this morning that he's pulling out of the U.S. Open, which begins in less than two weeks. What for? An "injury." No one knows what. When Nadal pulled out of the Olympics—he hasn't played a match since he was bounced in the second round of Wimbledon—it was a little unclear what the problem was.… » 8/15/12 1:15pm 8/15/12 1:15pm

As I recall Windows NT 4.0 was independent of hardware. They had this concept they called HAL, which did all of the communication when it came to hardware. You had an alpha chip, no problem, just get a alpha HAL. I have in person seen Windows NT 4.0 running on other architectures, including alphas and apples of the day (long before they switched to intel equipment).
I'm guessing they dropped this capability with one of the newer incarnations...
"One Architecture, One OS" also translates as "One Egg, One Basket".

Lake Park mayor is no-show at meeting

Chinese dragons are legendary creatures in Chinese mythology and folklore, with mythic counterparts among Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Bhutanese, Western and Turkic dragons. In Chinese art, dragons are typically portrayed as long, scaled, serpentine creatures with four legs. In yin and yang terminology, a dragon is yang (male) and complements a yin (female) fenghuang "Chinese phoenix".
In contrast to European dragons that are considered evil, Chinese dragons traditionally symbolize potent and auspicious powers, particularly control over water, rainfall, and floods. The dragon is also a symbol of power, strength, and good luck.
Chinese Horodsopes
Truthful but extreme, courageous but unyielding, Metal Dragons have a strength similar to the Dragon fire. Metal Dragons succeed through determination. They are mighty and respect people who stand up to them. In troubled times, these Dragons make great allies, but become ferocious challengers. Metal Dragons can often calm others through their forceful personalities. They seek action, and things are never better than when they are defending a thought or belief about which they have complete faith. Metal Dragons like to lead, and have an affect that makes others want to follow them. Yet even if they attract no support they will fight alone.

-——————————————————————————————————————————————————Capsicum (or pepper in the US, in Canada and in the United Kingdom) is a genus of plants from the nightshade family (Solanaceae) native to the Americas, where it was cultivated for thousands of years by the people of the tropical Americas, and is now cultivated worldwide. Some of the members of Capsicum are used as spices, vegetables, and medicines. The fruit of Capsicum plants have a variety of names depending on place and type. They are commonly called chilli pepper, red or green pepper, or sweet pepper in Britain, and typically just capsicum in Australian and Indian English. The large mild form is called bell pepper in the US and Canada. They are called paprika in some other countries (although paprika can also refer to the powdered spice made from various capsicum fruit). -——————————————————————————————————————————————————

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
It's how you play the game
Traditional printmaking techniques show the playful side of conceptual art
TWO slides stood out during Winnipeg printmaker Suzie Smith's artist talk for To Break & To Build, her solo exhibition at Aceartinc. Tucked among images of her own recent work and the artists who've influenced her, she included examples of a simple pen-and-paper game, the sort of thing kids might be encouraged to play on long car trips to pass the time. The first player dashes off two squiggly lines, and the second has to find some way to work them into a picture -- a bear, a bug, a boat, or anything else. She shared it as a fun aside, but it went a long way towards illustrating her approach to art-making, which is at once methodical in its focus and irrepressibly playful.
"Conceptual" and "process-based" art, both central to Smith's practice, emphasize the idea of the work and how it's made -- the materials an artist uses, what she does with them and for how long -- over the form and appearance of the finished object. While this can yield work that looks clinical (or like nothing at all), Smith chooses to work within the familiar technical and visual framework of fine art and commercial printmaking. The results are accessible and engaging while showing a level of restraint that highlights the inquisitive, exploratory nature of her methods. Smith is playing games, but the rules are always clearly defined.
In Second Hand Records, she begins with album sleeves purchased at junk shops and yard sales, using silkscreen to cleanly black out certain areas, adding simple white figures elsewhere, often no more than a single line. The alterations aren't elaborate, but the transformations they produce are surprising and often funny: a group of Highland dancers become a dangling row of marionettes; a footloose Tom Jones catches his ankle in a rope snare. The exhibition is full of similarly deft, witty gestures that, by forcing us to question what it is we're looking at, ask us to consider broader issues of how the images that surround us are constructed, consumed and understood.
Elsewhere, Smith used software to lay out images that, once printed, can be cut out and folded to produce life-size, three-dimensional, and near-photorealistic papercraft models of bricks and hammers, which she displays in tidy piles. A similar play between "image" and "object," surface, space, and volume, is apparent in other works. Prints show the front and back of crumpled sheets of paper, hands holding magnetic compasses, and Smith herself hiding behind the mostly blank surface of the page, peering out through illusory "eyeholes" in a sort of print-form peekaboo.
Some of the most resolutely process-oriented works are also among the most beautiful. In the series Shapes Shifting, Smith first prints out simple geometric figures -- bold lines, squares, circles, etc. -- tearing, folding, and pressing the pages flat like freeform origami until the squares become circles, circles become squares and intricately pleated lattices, and straight lines give way to scalloped waves. Ever attentive to craft, she scans these ephemeral "sketches," reproducing them as pristine, richly textured black-and-white lithographs.
In tone and technique, the work in To Break & To Build is varied, even scattered, but each new gesture ultimately invites us further into Smith's singularly creative, surprisingly consistent and refreshingly unpretentious sensibility and practice.
If she's playing games, the rules are easy to follow. Why not play along?

Corrections & Amplifications
The Ahead of the Tape column on Dec. 13, focusing on FactSet Research Systems stock, failed to note the business relationship between FactSet and The Wall Street Journal. News Corp.'s Dow Jones & Co., which owns the Journal, purchases market data from FactSet; the Journal uses FactSet data; and FactSet is a distributor of Dow Jones Newswires.
A photo of a rally against this month's Russian elections that appeared with a Dec. 12 World News article about the antigovernment protests was taken in Voronezh, Russia. The photo caption incorrectly said the photo was taken in Moscow.
A NASA probe will investigate the asteroid Vesta this week. In some editions Monday, the headline of a U.S. News article misspelled the asteroid name as Vista.
National advertisers went from accounting for about 30% of the New York Times's ad revenue in 1996, to about 76% in 2010. A Corporate News article Saturday about the Times incorrectly said national advertisers accounted for about 76% of ad revenue in 2000.
Southwest Airlines Co.'s AirTran Airways unit, which it acquired in May, operates some international flights, issues seat assignments and flies Boeing Co. 717s as well as 737s. A Corporate News article Friday about Southwest incorrectly said the company was strictly a domestic carrier, didn't assign seats and operated only Boeing 737s.
Haverford Trust Co. manages more than $6 billion in assets. In some editions Monday, the Abreast of the Market article in Money & Investing incorrectly said it manages $3 billion.
Thompson Hine LLP is a law firm based in Cleveland. A Comings and Goings brief in Law Journal on Monday incorrectly said it was based in Atlanta.
Leonard Silverberg is a podiatrist. A front-page article Monday on ice hockey in Israel incorrectly described him as a dentist.
HTC Corp. had the second-largest share of smartphone subscribers in the U.S. market for the three months ended in October, according to the research firm Nielsen. The Week Ahead article on Dec. 12 about an impending ruling by the International Trade Commission incorrectly reported that the firm ranked HTC as the third-largest supplier.
The Wall Street Journal didn't ask Paul Taubman, co-president of institutional securities at Morgan Stanley, for his opinion of Susie Essman's performance at the UJA-Federation of New York's annual Wall Street Dinner on Wednesday. On Monday, Mr. Taubman declined to comment on the performance. An article on Saturday's Heard & Scene page incorrectly said Mr. Taubman called the performance "refreshing."
Daniel Barach is a portfolio-manager consultant. An article on Saturday about Occupy Wall Street protests incorrectly identified him as a hedge-fund consultant.
The Eastern box turtle, mentioned in an article Saturday about the theft of a screech owl from New Jersey, is a reptile. The article incorrectly described it as an amphibian.

After all chance of frost which if I recall in zone 5 is mid May sometime. You should be able to find out your local last frost date online easily to be sure. Then check the forecast to make sure no late frosts predicted over the coming week and plant them.
If you don't mind covering them in case of late frost then you can plant them 7-10 days before the last frost date but the risk increases.

Copyright Compliance Awareness of Illegal Sharing Still Lags in the Workplace
Sharing digital information gets faster and easier every day, and as a result the risk of copyright infringement in the workplace grows proportionally.

Meet Natacia
My name is Natacia. I am very passionate for working with children. I have taken many classes to help me further my knowledge of the best way to take care of your children. I am the oldest of six kids. My siblings and I are spread apart in age, therefore I have a lot of personal experience working with kids of all ages. I have been formally caring for children for the last six years. I have experience working with kids ages one week until age 18. I am trained through a child development program where I learned the safety procedures, the behavioral actions of children and how to help guide them in a safe, yet independent way. I have many certifications through the child development program, for example, I have completed the 1-2-3-4 parents training as well as many others. I am licensed as a babysitter but as of right now my CPR and other certifications are expired. I would gladly update them if that is a requirement. My long term goal would be to graduate college with a degree in early childhood, a minor in psychology, as well as a nutrition degree. Upon my graduation I would like to open a daycare in which to provide the best childcare. Children are my passion and I know that I would be a great candidate to watch your child/children. Upon the request of my services I will plan some fun, exciting, hands-on activities for the children to do. These activities of course would be pre-approved by you before I had the children do them. When I do babysit I make sure that the home is in order before the parents return. This would include the floor being picked up, dishes cleaned, toys put away, as well as any other duties the parents might request. If I will be babysitting during a meal time I would be happy to help make the meal as well as serve it. I try to make sure that the meal is a balanced, healthy meal. If there is any other information that you might request I would be happy to provide it for you. I know and am very confident that I would be a great candidate for your babysitter! I look forward to hearing back from you! Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and your children!

Surprise: Liberals Become Violent During May Day "Protest"
They were probably not even sure what they were supposed to be protesting. There was the usual smattering of amnesty, give us someone else's money, social justice, pro-Palestinian, Israel hatred, communist love, and anti-capitalism signs and rhetoric on view, all on a day originally designed to celebrate spring (except in Colorado, what with all their new snow) but taken over by communists to celebrate international workers day (where they apparently do not bother actually working)
(Fox 13) May Day protests in downtown Seattle Wednesday night turned violent for the second straight year, with protesters throwing rocks, bottles, metal bars at police and others. Police said eight officers were injured, mostly with scrapes and bruises, and 18 people were arrested.
Police used pepper spray and "blast balls" – a small firework-like device that gives of a loud bang, a flash and a dose of pepper – and other devices to drive the crowd of 150 to 200 people back.
Some in the crowd – self-described anarchists – wore masks and bandanas to cover their faces. As they moved into the downtown area, the protesters began chanting, "Let's go shopping."
"They approached the area of Westlake Mall," said police Capt. Chris Fowler said. "They stopped. It was at that time that we began taking rocks and bottles."
Rocks, bottles and metal bars were thrown at police, and windows in at least two businesses were broken.
You have to love the irony of these liberals….call them anarchists all you want, they still vote Democrat…causing harm to the places fellow citizens work and to their motor vehicles. If you head over to the USA Today reprint of the AP story, you'll see a bunch of unhinged and violent liberals complaining about the way the police responded, without mentioning that maybe these same liberals shouldn't get unhinged and violent. The Seattle PD live-tweeted the violence from liberals. There were around 16 arrests.
Even those who weren't violent were unhinged. Here's a perfect photo, via The Blaze from NRO's Charles Cook, who spent the day witnessing Occupy Wall Street on May Day
We've go it all. Communism, SEIU (purple shirt), an Intifada keffiyeh, pro-amnesty, and an anti-capitalism sign. Oh, and dirty scruffy liberals.
In 2011, the Occupy movement had a distinct lentils-and-patchouli air. Now, it has taken a hard leftward turn. Che, Lenin, Mao, and Chávez all make appearances on signs distributed by a group calling itself the "Red Youth." Flip their faces over and you'll find either "Long Live Marxism-Leninism" or the more modern "Long Live Kim Il Sung!" written on the back.
"Down with Capitalism! We need Communist Revolution!" reads another group's banner. Next to it, "Revolution – Nothing Less!"
No one should be shocked. And these are the base voters for Obama and the Democrats.
