If you wish to return a full order or certain components of an order, Interknobs.com must be notified within 30 days of delivery. All items should be returned in their original packaging and in the condition received.

sample program
so you make the most educated purchase possible and avoid the potential hassle of shipping a return.
Some special order items cannot be returned and this will be noted in their online descriptions.

within 30 business days of receiving your shipment.
Write Exchange in the subject heading.

Indicate the items you would like to return and the model numbers you would like to order in exchange.
A separate order will be processed and charged for the replacement items.

Please be advised that it may take a few business days to provide this information, depending on the manufacturer's response time. Once supplied with this information, please ship your return merchandise within 14 days to ensure that credit is properly applied.

Indicate your original invoice/sales order number.
Indicate which items/quantities you would like to return.
Interknobs.com will then e-mail you with return instructions, including the correct shipping address and any applicable RGA codes. Please be advised that it may take a few business days to provide this information, depending on the manufacturer's response time. Once supplied with this information, please ship your return merchandise within 14 days to ensure that credit is properly applied.
When the return merchandise is received and inspected, you will be credited less the cost of shipping (if any) and a 25% restocking fee. No credit will be given for merchandise that is received opened or damaged.
Processing of Refunds
Your refund will be applied to the credit card or Paypal/Google Checkout account used to place the order. We try to process credits as quickly as possible. Please allow up to 30 days for your refund to post to your account before contacting us.
Late and Non-Procedural Returns
We do our best to process all returns. However, if you do not contact us before sending a return or do not follow the specific instructions given, we cannot guarantee that your return and refund will be processed.
Inaccurate Shipping Addresses
You are responsible for providing us with an accurate shipping address, including any applicable street numbers and apartment numbers. If the shipment carrier cannot deliver due to an incorrect or undeliverable address and the shipment is returned to the sender, our return policy will become applicable (you will be responsible for the cost of shipping and a 25% restocking fee).
Receiving Your Order
Most of our suppliers will not require a signature upon delivery of your package. However, we highly recommend that you specify a shipping address where you or another trusted adult is present. If you would prefer that we require signature at delivery, please contact us at 1-877-820-9224 and we will make arrangements. A small surcharge may apply.
For standard deliveries, we consider a package as having been delivered when we can provide tracking information that indicates this to be the case.
Occasionally, packages may be left with someone who has accepted the package on your behalf such as a family member, neighbor, co-worker, or building manager. Packages may also be left at your front door, garage, or tucked behind bushes out of plain view.
If you are present during a delivery, do not refuse the package unless you notice freight damage to the parcel. If there is damage, please bring it to the driver's attention.
If you do not want the package for another reason (perhaps you changed your mind and no longer want the order), it is usually safer and more cost effective to receive the order and obtain an RGA than to refuse delivery. If you refuse delivery, we will need to pass along any additional carrier charges incurred by the return shipment PLUS the 25% restocking fee.
Billing Address Differs from Shipping Address
In an effort to prevent fraud, we may contact you for further verification if your requested shipping address differs from your billing address.
We reserve the right to change pricing on this website at any time.
Due to the high volume of product details and descriptions being displayed, added, and edited on this website, there are rare occasions in which human error leads to a data input error. In the instance that this occurs, you will be contacted as soon as possible and given the correct pricing.
Charge/Accounting Errors
In the extremely rare instance that you notice a discrepancy or duplicate charge on your bank statement, please
contact us
and we will correct the matter. Please contact Interknobs.com before your financial institution, as this always results in a quicker resolution to the problem.
Coupon Codes and Free Shipping Offers
Interknobs coupon codes give a specified percentage discount to a specified minimum subtotal. Only one coupon code can be applied per order and coupon codes typically expire after a specified date.
If you place an order utilizing a coupon code, we highly advise verifying the required quantities of each item to ensure accuracy. If you need to place a future order because of a shortage, it is likely the case that this smaller purchase will not meet the minimum requirements for the coupon discount. We cannot honor discounted prices for future orders that do not meet the minimum subtotal threshold for the coupon code or if the code has expired.
The same terms apply to free shipping. If you need to place a future order because of a shortage, it is likely the case that this smaller purchase will not meet the minimum requirements for free shipping. We cannot honor free shipping for orders that do not meet the minimum subtotal threshold ($99) for free shipping.
Sales Tax
All orders shipped to New York State residents/businesses are subject to the applicable sales tax, unless proof of tax exemption is provided.
Order Cancellation
Orders for in-stock merchandise may be cancelled for a full refund if they have not yet been shipped. If you decide to cancel an order and it has already been shipped, our
return policy
becomes applicable to the termination of the sale.
Some special order items cannot be cancelled or returned and this will be noted in their online descriptions.
Damaged/Defective/Wrong Item(s) Policy

notify customer service
within 2 business days. We will ship replacement items ASAP and provide pre-paid shipping service for the return merchandise. If you opt to return the damaged, defective, or incorrect item(s) without receiving replacements, our return policies become applicable, including any restocking fees.

I would think slower. Yeast is less concentrated and poolish less hydrated. Both should slow things down.
Somebody much smarter than me will chime in, but... I might assume that the same amount of yeasties live in any given weight of starter. Thick or thin. I would doubt that you would see much difference, if any. My starter seems to enjoy a bit more flour than the 50/50 mix some people use.
Sorry, I am new, but is poolish and starter the same?Mark
I actually saw a huge difference. It's been fermenting for 14hrs now and it looks like 28hr. I was hoping someone could tell me why this is?
I think most of the time people use "starter" they are talking about a natural starter/sourdough. Check out the glossary for better definitions.
I actually saw a huge difference. It's been fermenting for 14hrs now and it looks like 28hr.
The only reason I ask is that in reply #1 of this post, Jet-Deck, seems to be using the term Starter the same as poolish, the original topic of this thread.Mark
Poolish, starter, preferment. Different definitions sometimes used a synonymous processes?Just trying to understand, not cause dissent.Mark
..... It's possible that you are seeing a more dramatic visible increase in volume unhindered by the higher proteolytic activity of a more liquid poolish....
How could the poolish be more liquid, since he added more flour?

Maxwell Wildlife Refuge
2577 Pueblo Road
Canton, KS 67428
Manager: Cliff Peterson
Phone: 620-628-4592
In 1943, the Henry Maxwell estate donated 2.560 acres (4 sq. mi.) of land to the Kansas Forestry, Fish, and Game Commission for the creation of a wildlife refuge dedicated to bison and other prairie species. Of that area, a little over 300 acres was designated to be used for the construction of a public fishing lake and the remainder fenced to hold bison and elk. Bison and elk herds were initiated on the refuge in 1951. The primary use of the area is wildlife viewing.
The Don Brown Memorial Shooting Range is located on the very southeastern corner of the property (2680 Pioneer Road). It was created in early 1984, in memory of rural Galva resident Don Brown, who dearly loved the Maxwell Refuge and McPherson State Lake. Don was an avid outdoorsman and taught Hunter Education Classes because of his passion for children, hunting, and the local area. His untimely death at the age of 47 from an auto accident in October 1982, on a road near the refuge, was a tragedy and loss to all who loved him. The Brown family requested memorials be donated to a fund that would establish something in his memory that would live on honoring him and be beneficial to others who love the area as he did.
The refuge is located 6 miles north of Canton, in the very southeastern tip of the scenic Smoky Hills, an area of large rolling hills. Principal vegetation is a warm-season mixed grass prairie with many species of grasses and forbs. The dominant grass species are big bluestem, little bluestem, Indiangrass, switchgrass, and sideoats grama. Forbs are abundant and numerous clumps of native sand plum and smooth sumac are scattered throughout the area. Soils are mostly moderately deep sandy loams. Principal management techniques used on the area are prescribed fire and grazing by bison and elk, including herd management to maintain proper grazing levels. Primary use of the area is wildlife viewing. The Maxwell Refuge is the only location in Kansas where public herds of both bison and elk can be viewed in a native prairie environment. It is home to the state's largest public herd of bison. Visitors may view on-their-own from the road and the observation tower or call ahead to schedule a tram tour with the Friends of Maxwell for a close-up view of the bison (620-628-4455). Link to http://www.maxwellwildliferefuge.com/ for more information on tours and special events.
- Off-road vehicle use is prohibited.
- Visitors must remain inside their vehicles on the portion of the road that passes through the bison/elk enclosure. Where there is a fence along the road, visitors may park on the edge of the road and exit their vehicles for wildlife viewing.
- No camping or fires are allowed on the refuge. All camping must be done at McPherson State Fishing Lake, which adjoins the refuge on the west end.
- Fireworks are prohibited on the area.
- Alcohol and cereal malt beverages are also prohibited.
- Take all trash with you when you leave.
- No hunting is allowed on the refuge.
- Firearm use by the public is allowed only at the Don Brown Memorial Shooting Range on the southeastern corner of the property (2680 Pioneer Road).

Price Range: USD $77.99 to $304.99
Passenger Cars / Winter / Premium
Designed with an aggressive unidirectional tread pattern for superior performance in extreme snow and ice conditions, the Toyo OBSERVE G-02 plus winter tire technology was specifically built to handle Canada's most brutal winters.
Lamella crystals, called Fraipontite, help "vaccuum" away moisture from under the footprint allowing better direct contact between the tread compound and the road surface.Silica in the tread compound helps rubber retain it's softness in low temperature conditions and resists hardening with age.Improved Microbit Technology with the larger walnut shell particle, increases traction and braking on compacted snow and ice.Increased sipe density further improves water evacuation resulting in improved levels of ice traction.
FITMENT GUARANTEE All orders are verified for fitment guarantee.
This is the perfect tire for mostly flat winter driving like in the Greater Toronto Area. I've been using these in the past 4 winters and have been extremely happy. After last winter's major snow storm, we were one of the few vehicles to make it in and out of our street which had over a foot of snow. My wife and I have never lost control of our Odyssey using these tires in the winter. Best points: excellent handling in snow, minimal tire wear, good fuel economy. Weak points: Road noise at any speed. I would buy this tire again in my next purchase.

Never had a worst winter tire. Way too loud on dry tarmac, and it slides all day in snow. Good thing I have AWD, as the tires wouldn't perform at their best.

I have been running on Observe tires for many years and on many Toyota sedans. I grew up in the Mt Shasta area and know about winter in the mountains. I have never gotten stuck in the winter with a properly equipped car. The right tires, and a set of fitted chains is standard equipment. 4 out of 5 of my vehicles have Observe tires (Not the Ford pickup).

I liked them alot for 2 winters in Toronto. Good all round tire for mixed conditions. Handled ice patches well enough. Not the best at digging out of the deepest of fresh snows, but good enough 90% of the time ..maybe not so up north? Hard starts and stops in the wet were excellent. Minor hydroplaning skips in heavy rain but only over 125kmh. In the dry they stopped short and straight, handled Altima wheelspin BETTER than many all-seasons. Ran at 36psi didn't feel mushy or wobbly at all. Only issue is toughness - like most Toyos they're fragile - got a sidewall lump form pothole so my GS02+ are done with 7.5mm still left. Would take them again for a reduced price.

All orders are verified for fitment guarantee
Verified by tire & wheel expert
We honor the fitment.
If your vehicle information is present on your order, we will verify fitment to qualify you for the 100% Fitment Gaurantee. If your order arrives and the tires or wheels do not fit your vehicle, we will honor an exchange and pay for freight for the return and new set. If there are concerns about your order we will contact you about potential fitment issues.
Our Fitment Gaurantee applies to orders that come with full vehicle information (Year, Make Model, Sub-Model). If you are confident that the vehicle information is not necessary for your order, we will proceed without checking fitment. However, in the event there is a fitment issue with your order, we will honor a return/exchange, as per our return / refund policy. You will be responsible for freight charges (both ways).
You entered a ZIP/Postal code that has local pick-up options available.
To see your local pick-up options, click "Add to Cart", and "Proceed to Secure Checkout". In the Checkout page, under Ship To area, then Ship to Local Installer, you will see available options for Local Pick-Up and/or Certified Installers.

Young arms to feature again in second game in DC
Angels' Skaggs, Nats' Jordan to match up in middle contest of series
The Angels need all the help they can get, offensively, these days, and that's part of the reason why Monday's win seemed so uplifting.
Erick Aybar entered the game with a .175 batting average, then focused on staying upright in his stance and notched his first three-hit game of the season while hitting a two-out, game-tying single in the eighth inning. Raul Ibanez entered with a .148/.212/.311 slash line, then hit a pinch-hit three-run double later that inning to lead his team to a 4-2 victory.
Production from those two, for a lineup that will be without Kole Calhoun (sprained right ankle) and Josh Hamilton (left thumb surgery) until at least mid-May, will be crucial.
The hope is that they build on it.
"We need both of those guys, obviously," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "It looked like they had a little better feel out there in the batter's box."
Ibanez figures to start in left field on Tuesday, in the second of a three-game series that will see Angels 22-year-old lefty Tyler Skaggs match up against Nationals 25-year-old righty Taylor Jordan.
"That's definitely something that's helpful; it's good, positive feedback, on a personal level, when you can contribute to the team," said Ibanez. "Any time that you help pick your teammates up and help your team to victory, it's something you can build on and something positive, for sure."
Angels: Better April, but it's all relative
The Angels still haven't topped .500 this season, but they're at least off to a better start. Monday's 4-2, come-from-behind victory at Nationals Park was their ninth win of the season, tying their output for all of April 2013 with eight games still remaining in the season's first month.
The Angels (9-10) haven't necessarily shot themselves in the foot, like they did while sporting the fourth-worst April winning percentage in 2012-13, and they're at the very least treading water.
"I don't think we're at where we want to be, but we're playing better ball this year than we have in the past," Angels center fielder Mike Trout said. "There are some games where we should've won, and some games that we've pitched well and played good defense."
Nationals: Jordan's last start an ugly one
In his last start on Thursday, Jordan lost to the Cardinals after allowing seven runs (five earned) on seven hits and two walks in 5 1/3 innings -- giving him 11 earned runs in 16 2/3 innings this season.
What made this loss even worse was that the Nationals made four errors, two of them by shortstop Ian Desmond. And that doesn't account for the misplays that were ruled hits. In the first inning, Jordan misplayed a ball off the bat of Kolten Wong that was ruled a hit. Jordan had a tough time getting the ball out of his glove and Wong beat Jordan's throw to first.
Worth noting
• The Angels and Nationals are meeting in a series for the first time since 2011, when the Angels swept them in Southern California. The last time the Angels were in Washington, they won two of three.
• Entering Monday, Nats pitchers led the Majors in strikeouts (189) and strikeouts per nine innings (10.03). The last time a team from D.C. paced the Majors in strikeouts was 1919, when the Senators fanned 536.

Barack Obama and Taxes
Peter Wehner explores the obsession in Commentary Magazine:
For Obama, the top two percent are the Great White Whale—and he is Captain Ahab.
The question is why. Captain Ahab's neurotic obsession was understandable (Moby Dick, after all, had destroyed his boat and bit off his leg). So what explains Mr. Obama's obsession?
It can't be what he claims, which is improving the economy or reducing the deficit. As Charles Krauthammer pointed out, "the alleged curative effect on debt of Obama's tax-rate demand – the full rate hike on the 'rich' would have reduced the 2012 deficit from $1.10 trillion to $1.02 trillion. That's a joke, a rounding error."
So if what is driving Obama isn't an economic argument, what else might it be? Part of it is, as Krauthammer argues, political. Mr. Obama believes forcing Republicans to agree to raise tax rates on the top bracket will fracture the party. But there may be something else at play as well. Barack Obama is a man of the left, a proud progressive, and what animates the left today isn't a positive vision to achieve the common good; it's a seething resentment toward those who are successful and a commitment to make them pay more in the name of "fairness."
Wehner goes on to make a reference to Obama's 2008 debate with Hillary Clinton, moderated by Charles Gibson:
GIBSON: All right. You have, however, said you would favor an increase in the capital gains tax. As a matter of fact, you said on CNBC, and I quote, "I certainly would not go above what existed under Bill Clinton," which was 28 percent. It's now 15 percent. That's almost a doubling, if you went to 28 percent.
But actually, Bill Clinton, in 1997, signed legislation that dropped the capital gains tax to 20 percent.
OBAMA: Right.
GIBSON: And George Bush has taken it down to 15 percent.
OBAMA: Right.
GIBSON: And in each instance, when the rate dropped, revenues from the tax increased; the government took in more money. And in the 1980s, when the tax was increased to 28 percent, the revenues went down.
So why raise it at all, especially given the fact that 100 million people in this country own stock and would be affected?
OBAMA: Well, Charlie, what I've said is that I would look at raising the capital gains tax for purposes of fairness.
We saw an article today which showed that the top 50 hedge fund managers made $29 billion last year — $29 billion for 50 individuals. And part of what has happened is that those who are able to work the stock market and amass huge fortunes on capital gains are paying a lower tax rate than their secretaries. That's not fair.
Capital gains, and income for the top two percent…or one percent…the "millionaires and billionaires." Thar she blows!
Krauthammer, linked above, elaborates:
Obama has never shown interest in genuine debt reduction. He does nothing for two years, then spends the next two ignoring his own debt-reduction commission. In less than four years, he has increased U.S. public debt by a staggering 83 percent. As a percentage of gross domestic product, the real marker of national solvency, it has spiked from 45 percent to 70 percent.
Obama has never once publicly suggested a structural cut in entitlements. On the contrary, he created an entirely new entitlement – Obamacare – that, according to the Congressional Budget Office, will increase spending by $1.7 trillion over 11 years.
Now here's where the problem gets into public relations. We have a negotiation going on between the Republicans in Congress, and President Obama, the latter of whom is suffering from this weird Ahab obsession and is demonstrably not interested, even a tiny bit, in solving the deficit problem. But what do you get back when you Google "obama obsessed tax rich"? Just as many links back about the Republicans' obsession with not taxing the rich, and for good measure a righteous mocking by Jon Stewart.
Consider the message from democrats, to which the Republicans seem to be finding themselves unable to prepare a compelling response:
People are suffering, therefore it's a problem when anybody prospers, so our plan is to make it much more difficult to prosper, and if anyone succeeds in spite of us then we'll take their money away so they can see what suffering is like. We'll pretend it's got something to do with solving the deficit but nobody seriously thinks so, hardly any of us ever say so, we're just using it as an excuse to grab money. It all works out in the end, trust us because we're politicians!!
Something like that. Republicans cannot offer a rebuttal that resonates with the public? Uh, really?
So President Obama has this weird Ahab-like obsession, because the political reality is that He is allowed to have it. It isn't costing Him anything to have it, or not very much anyway. Given that, there's not much use to exploring how & why He has it; it is what it is. In fact, it could be argued that He was elected and re-elected to be so obsessed, and the white whale is, in fact, His "mandate" of sorts.
But I do think, for the good of the country, everyone should stop pretending President Obama is trying to solve the fiscal cliff problem. He's not.

"Obama's wording was carefully, formally non-partisan"
Don't listen to what Obama says, look at what Obama does.
/History majors, pay attention.
I see Obama from different aspects. I saw his speech after coming to an agreement as being more outraged that people disagree with him as more of a slam of his opponents. And more like the behavior of a 10-15 year old child than an adult. Speeches prior to that and his agreement speech suggest his inability to comprehend all Americans have the right to disagree with him, his party or republicans in name only like Bloomberg trying to pass a law banning drinks over 16 oz.
I was a boy when I saw fire hoses, dogs and clubs used to beat Martin Luther Kings followers. Decent democrats were so disgusted with KKK democrats they started calling themselves liberals and progressives.
The KKK was bankrupted but it didn't stop illiterates from advancing the "we are right" attitude of illiterates.
I consider Obama to be the leader of the "nice" KKK mentality that thinks his election made him emperor, king or god of America. If conservatives pass a law nice KKK thinking people do what they can to destroy it but if Americans see KKK medical care (Affordable Mecical care as a joke) and oppose it we are wrong.
One of Obama's advisers condones Eugenics including Eugenics where people not considered productive are a burden on society. Obama has stated at some age seniors don't have the right to medical care more than pills. Americans voted Obama to be president. But he sees himself as god and executioner like a 10 year old child without a conscience.
I think Obama's relationship with Michelle is telling. He stated recently he is afraid of her and stopped smoking. If he wants a hamburger he needs to leave the house. Is his playing golf to also have freedom to have foods not possible around her?
Michelle's dictatorship of Obama he puts up with suggests she is a childish adult and his putting up with her suggests they behave more like 10 year old children than like adults. Also it helps explain why he cannot see he is a bully and elite snob and more dictator than president.
The book, "The Collapse of Complex Societies (New Studies in Archaeology)" by author Joseph A. Tainter outlines the failures of 24 complex societies. All keep adding layer after layer of non-productive government employees till the taxes are not sustainable.
Some Romans cheered for barbarians killing Roman troops so they have more freedom. Freedom from people supposedly educated that are economic illiterate snobs like Obama, McCain & others. Tarinter cites bones of people after Rome fell had a more rich food diet by not being taxed to death.
I forget the school system that needed to hire 1400 teachers. They gave applicants with college degrees & teachers credential a college exit exam and found 59% cannot pass it.
A Oakland radio show asked people running for city council questions about economics & accounting and all were illiterate of topics people seeking political office should know.
Millions of Americans were thrilled by the prospect of the first Black American president before he made statements he has no respect for the American constitution. He promised us his administration will be more honest with Americans & all we hear is lies like raising a budget costs not one more cent!
Why not say the thinks Americans are stupid and illiterate to declare himself brilliant & god himself?
Before Obama all of us have seen the 59% with college degrees not qualified to do anything but memorize college tests. Some Mensa members threaten to kill others disagreeing with them.
Do Americans need to cheer on anyone that can kill Roman troops protecting our mentally 10 year old self declared god? The intent of the US Constitution was to protect Americans from childish adults that make most democracies a dictatorship. Obama's hatred for the constitution shows illiteracy & True Believer beliefs Eric Hoffer defined well. Hoffer defined the behavior of bums & homeless in 1930's that help explain KKK behavior.
How many school kids in America are conditioned to hate conservative thought? Isn't conditioned hatred the key driving force of the KKK? Many democrats hate conservative thoughts but funny thing is few conservatives hate democrat thought. We just consider we need to oppose it.
Most conservatives dislike & few hate dictators & people that bully or threaten us including politicians. But I've come to see people with closed minds to be conditioned to not ask questions or challenge their beliefs more childish.
Has anyone noticed the strong convictions of illiterates of economics, accounting & history seek political office? I think this is to get recognition even though they illiterate because they have strong egos? Few narcissists care about other people.
Should politicians pass a literacy test on: The Constitution, economics, budgeting, & national history? And why past complex governments failed? Without this test all useless programs cannot be cancelled because it proves illiteracy & childish politicians?
A lot of good talking points - I can fill in the evidence. Be encouraged; keep on trying to persuade others, and some certainly will reconsider the folly of blindly following the Progressives over the cliff.
Sorry, but I find your analysis incomplete.
You haven't factored in reptile skin-suits or Jay-Z's obsession with Illuminati geometry.
An important concept here is the fact that people have ideological "immune systems" that protect their ideas in the same way that they have immune systems that protect their bodies.
This is especially true of narrow minded people. Such a person has allowed their ideologies to become part of their selves, so that if an inconvenient or contrary fact or argument shows up, then they see it as an attack on the self. Therefore they counter attack with vehemence, even violence.
It is a bit like a child with a comfort blanket. When you try to take away the blanket the child screams, because as far as he is concerned, the blanket is part of himself.
The more extreme, the more vehement, the more aggressive someone is at defending their ideas, then the greater the degree they have absorbed the ideology into themselves. Such people are impossible to argue with. It doesn't matter if their position is completely untenable and utterly at odds with obvious facts. Creationists are a perfect example. Extreme Republicans, like the creationist Tea Party leader Michele Bachmann are another.
Whenever they hear something they don't like, they don't listen to what is being said, consider it and try to find counter arguments. What happens is that the automatic immune system kicks in, and thousands of automatic answers pop up to crowd out the offending notion. For instance, if someone mentions something positive about the ACA, instantly a whole bunch of ideological "T-cell" defenders are kicked into action like "death panels", "RFID implant" rush to repair the ideological breach.
Im a Republican. I don't hear Obama in a different way. I simply don't hear him at all. Anybody who calls an opposition party in America, "the enemy" as Obama did while ago in reference to the Republicans, don't deserve my respect.
And yeah, you are welcome to call me racist. In difference to the rest of Conservatives, I am not physiologically intimidated by the race card. I didn't vote for Gore, or for Kerry, or for Obama. Sure the reason for that was that I "was racist" against all three.
I came to nearly the exact same realization when watching him speak during the shutdown. I couldn't help but feel the words he was using were explicitly chosen to persuade us, American Citizens, to hate Republicans, instead of choosing words that would help to end the shutdown. The collateral effect of this is that it humiliates Republicans and Conservatives, making them act irrationally and hate the President in response. I seriously doubt any center-leaning Democrat or Centrist actually wants more government in our lives just for the sake of more government, but they do want a more equal society where everyone has a chance to succeed. Unfortunately Republicans haven't put forth any better policy proposals because they have been too busy letting the President's language get under their skin.
Remember Mr Obama said as early as 2006 that he relishes being to his interpreters "a blank slate upon which people project what they want to see." His long-term goal has been to subvert "traditional America" - to "fundamentally transform" it, by methods of deception. His "czars" and advisors in a large shadow-government each represent a shockingly extreme ideology. Yes, his interpreters choose what they will, but to those who have tracked his history, associations, and propensities, Mr Obama remains a malignant sociopath in the extreme.
Canned goods and small arms ammunition, aisle three.
So, Obama is a sociopath, then the Tea Partiers must be the peace-loving socialists? Clearly, you are a seriously deluded extreme right-wing conspiracy theorist.
I'm a realist, not a survivalist: are you not old enough to remember 1930's Europe? Don't you remember that Lenin postulated total control of a population by means of controlling access to medical care? Or that Hitler presented himself publicly as a traditional nationalist - although his subversive agenda was plain in Mein Kampf? Obama invited voters to judge him by his associates; have you done that honestly?

Obama invited voters to judge him by his associates; have you done that honestly?
What's the point of airing a silly name-call? Answer my evidentiary assertions if you can. I've studied Obama for six years and have read all I can about him, hoping to disprove my initial impressions that his murky history suggests evil. But questions remain: who is he really? Did he have an Indonesian passport? Enrolled as a foreign student? Disciple of Frank Marshall Davis? A fanatic Progressive? Why do politicians lie to us? What is Obama hiding? An evil agenda, or mere incompetence?
As a citizen who has voted in presidential elections for forty plus years, I have to tell you that I really don't listen that much to what Obama says. I see him as a guy who does some things right, some wrong and pretty much works to the middle. I think Obamacare is simply a law that's been needed since Nixon tried to reform healthcare in America. So I don't pay much attention. What I DO pay attention to are the maniacs on the right. These people are a cancer. They have no plans other than personal attacks. They would destroy everything to protect themselves. Politics have always been bare knuckle. But this nonsense has to end.
As I've said before on other threads.
If Obama made a statment glorifying Christmas, the Tea Party would want Santa Claus arrested for breaking and entering.
Though in fairness, Ten years ago if Bush has made the same statement, the democrats would want a boycott on the grounds of his elves not being unionised.
"on the grounds of his elves not being unionised."
... or not being minorities, gays, muslims, atheists and feminists.
It's not what he says so much as what he does....which is destructive to the "American Dream" and will result in the collapse of our economic and social system
Fortunately, he's so bad at the task that the stock market has doubled during his 5 years in the office.
and our middle class is out of work and our "upward mobility" status has plumetted
Right. Glad you brought that up. Why don't you do some research and learn why that is the case? Read the Stiglitz book on the growing gap between the wealthy and everyone else. Learn why the middle class actually started getting screwed in 2000 as corporate profits rose while workers got cut. We're in a new economy and the Republicans want the upper class to profit from it at the expense of the "47%."They've gamed the tax laws to do it and created the bogeyman of Obamacare when in fact that law will help starter companies and working families the most. Just remember which presidential candidate had himself a home elevator in his garage.
Sure it did. But is the stock market really a reliable gauge of economic performance?
The stock market rallied, because QE infinity allowed banks to borrow money practically for free, which they used to buy assets. This inflated their prices artificially and, arguably, created a mini-bubble. Why else would mentions of tapering send stocks lower?
It is fairly gold. And to the bleeding-heart left, keep in mind that this asset price bubble exclusively serves to enrich the mythical "1%" of investment bankers and politicians.
The stock market did well since the crisis. Did the real economy? Hardly that much.
"And to the bleeding-heart left, keep in mind that this asset price bubble exclusively serves to enrich the mythical "1%" of investment bankers and politicians."
Bzzzt. Try again.
Anyone who owns a 401k, or any sort of mutual fund, or any individual stocks, etc., probably made some money.
I'm not 1% or even top 20%, but even I was able to see wealth grow by putting some money in a fund. If I cashed out today, it'd be fair to say that I prospered under Obama's economic tyranny.
No, Obama is lying. That's all he can do. That's all he has ever done. He is a liar to his lying core.
Obama doesn't lie. He just tells the truth that is expedient and convenient at the moment. In other words, he is an opportunistic.
To be perfectly honest, I am absolutely certain that each and every speech not only Obama but every successful politician gives is craftily put together for the purpose of giving the "correct" impression. In this case, I hadn't considered it myself, but the concept of Obama "trolling" the Republicans is marvelous. After all, by speaking moderately and reasonably, it does make the "folks on the other side" seem extreme by comparison. Who is and isn't extreme is an entirely different story, but it is a brilliant idea in any case. Way to go speech-writer.
"To be perfectly honest, I am absolutely certain that each and every speech not only Obama but every successful politician gives is craftily put together for the purpose of giving the "correct" impression."
Yes indeed.
Ted Cruz says over-the-top things as a junior Senator looking to replace Sarah Palin as a very, very successful writer and speech giver. As President, Barack Obama has a different goal and a different way of talking. If Ted Cruz were President -- which he most certainly will not be with the language that he uses -- then he would sound like a different man.
As did Barack Obama as a junior Senator lamenting the growth of the national debt, and voting against raising the debt ceiling (although that was a bit different in being a symbolic vote while on the losing side and not attached to the threat of a shutdown).
A very interesting article.Obama that evening seemed so clear-headed, specific, neutral yet very very partisan,and like a sailor emerging out of a storm- exhausted but confident.My 2008- crush n awe over him was rekindled all over.Although now lost in the tides of messed up healthcare software,an unwinable war in Afghanistan and fumbling about who to side with in the Middle East, the speech for a minute made me think of the guy 'who could walk on water'.
A very interesting article- unusually not-irritating for TE
I'm just a college student, so I didn't understand everything you wrote. But, from what I have understood you probably are overthinking, and being overly paranoid about a speech so simple and easy to understand. I don't think there is much more to it.
'it's interesting to think about how Mr Obama decides on the language he uses, when the two audiences he's speaking to will interpret every statement through such different lenses.'
Sounds like your implying each party is interpreting the speech in a way to create an argument, or to benefit themselves, possibly even both.
"Maybe I'm overthinking the whole thing." Yes, yes you are.
Senator Warren is not a 'flaming liberal', the Senator is a New Deal Liberal,a rare political bird and utterly valuable because of that status. She is what President Obama could have been, if he weren't in the political thrall of the American Neo-Liberalism known as Clintonism. Or if he had an ounce of real fight, (this said in angry resignation) although he surprised me with his tenacious attitude in regard to the Nihilist Republicans: he is a natural conciliator which leads to his framing of the conflict in the most neutral language, even in victory.
Speaking of rhetoric, the term 'Interpretive Communities': Mr. Fish is without doubt a gifted and persistent conversationalist. See his regular essays at the New York Times web site. But if our cultural context determines our view of a text, our politics might determine my view of the shutdown as well as the view of the writer of this essay. An example of the mirage of 'relativism'? But in this case the long digression provided by this term and the mention of the Blake debate, seeks to take this essay out the political present and denature it: to self-servingly re-describe the conflict outside it's time and political context. Nihilist Republicans as destructive radicals, who seeks to subvert not just the A.C.A. but the very notion and practice of governance. A fulfillment of the status of President Obama as 'other' and 'usurper' in the Nihilist Mythology.
President Obama was not trolling in this particular speech; however, in the majority of his speeches regarding the shutdown and its aftermath he most certainly has. His attitude of "I won, get over it" flies in the face of our how our constitutional system was designed. It was designed with multiple checks and balances and not for wholesale "change" after an election. Progressives in general, and this president in particular fail to understand this. This simple misunderstanding is what infuriates the 45 plus percent of America that did not vote for the president. I apologize if the author who I can only assume is British also fails to understand our political system. There are no vote of no confidence or dissolution of parliament if there is a logjam in government. As for trolling, it occurs every time you are accused of being a racist or troglodyte or some other unsavory ignorant beast for opposing Mr. Obama's policies. How about we be a bit more civil, stick to the facts and adhere to constitutional principles. If we ignore our constitution we risk ending up like some nations where the rule of law is ignored like Venezuela. Hugo Chavez sure brought a lot of "change" after winning an election, and not for the better.
"It was designed with multiple checks and balances"
(which the Republican party is completely ignoring)
re"(Our constitutional system) was designed with multiple checks and balances and not for wholesale "change" after an election."
But it WAS designed for the conversation to *move on* after an election, rather than throw a tantrum with the intention of undoing the results, wasn't it?
I am torn by the conclusions/question at the end of the article. The author asks if the president is deliberately taunting the opposition. My question to the author is, can he craft/suggest any sort of statement (other than capitulation or resignation form office) which the president could make, which would not infuriate the opposition? Perhaps the truth lies here: the simple existence of a center-left African-American president in his second term is enough to cause strong negative reaction. That fact, combined with any reminder of the current repudiation of the opposition's recent effort, is galling. If this is true, then putting the burden on the President not to 'troll' is unreasonable. If anything/everything he says (except to accept their dominance) causes them to get emotionally wrapped around their axle, then he is not at fault. Put the responsibility where it lies.
The existance of a center-right African-American President (or any Democrat who isn't far right, for that matter) would be enough to infuriate the Republican base. And has been.
Which makes your basic point even stronger. There is absolutely nothing that this President, or probably any Democrat, could do which would not be greeted with outrage. The closest any of them could come would be to earn a deafening silence, such as the opposition's failure to comment on the President's family values -- so obviously superior to any number of their proclaimed heroes.
From my standpoint on the right, this response is the sort of insulting, race-baiting nonsense we have come to expect from the progressives.
That many on the left actually believe we are unhappy because the President is African-American is astonishing us. It is also deeply insulting, implying that none of our ideas or arguments have any meaning - we're just racists. It flies in the face of evidence - for example, the deep respect most conservatives hold for Clarence Thomas, both of whose parents were African-American.
Until progressives stop stereotyping the right, they will be unable to understand us, but they will surely destroy whatever good will we might have for compromising with them.
"You didn't build this" is but one of dozens of examples of Obama's reflexive offensiveness.
Many on the right, me included, are unhappy with the President on account of some of his policies. (Just as many on the left are unhappy with him on account of some of his policies.)
But it is impossible to argue that there are not some on the right whose unhappiness is due to his race. And a whole lot whose level of hysteria over policies that they dislike is magnified on account of his race. It doesn't mean that everyone who disagrees with him does so for racist reasons -- although some progressives sloppily phrase it that way. But certainly some do . . . and the right has been remiss in not smacking them done hard and fast, if only to keep from undercutting our policy objections.
While I'm sure there are a few who are racist - you can a never completely get rid of that. None of the leaders on the right have used race in their arguments, unlike Obama. But his race is a significant factor in the opposition from the right.
Who are we supposed to be smacking down? Where are these racists on the right for us to condemn? How can you say that the right has been remiss in not smacking them down? I certainly don't see them except a few nut jobs on comments sections.
Start with:
- the birthers
- the folks waving Confederate flags at opposition rallies
Just for openers. Or are you contending that the whole birther nonsense wasn't recially motivated?
you completely ignored the point of his comment, instead focusing on the one potentially controversial assertion regarding potential racism on the right. this is a good example of the trolling the article is debating. Not sure if that was your intention, but way to go.
also, you seem to have missed the part where the line "you didn't build that" taken in context was actually about working together to solve problems. not a particularly divisive idea.
My guess:
I suspect that Obama's neutral, centrist language doesn't widen the window of debate, and that widening the window might work better. He tunes his message until he asks for what he can win: so the compromising is done before he shows his hand, and so it doesn't feel like a compromise.
If Obama had fought hard for single-payer, and then compromised with the Affordable Care Act which would then be in the middle of the debate-window, at least some Republicans who feel like ObamaCare is an extreme bill (because it was the most extreme thing we've talked about) and there was no compromise (partly because the compromise was already baked in) might be calmer now.
He'd still get a ton of outrage from those who manufacture outrage, and I bet a Reagan-clone would be scewered by the Tea Party if he wasn't one of them, I just think the Democrats need to ask for some real change before compromising. They're going to get called Socialist, so if they are nearly as conservative as Nixon, it makes a very weak party.
@Jouris - One person waved a Confederate flag at one demonstration in DC. That was a rally of veterans (you know, those of us who fought for your freedoms), so your accusation demeans veterans as racists. The flag waver certainly didn't look or act like a veteran, and could easily have been a Democrat plant. There have been a number of times when progressive activists have impersonated conservatives and acted badly.
As for birthers - that isn't racial either. Obama withheld evidence for a long time - probably to spur on the conspiracy theorists - and it worked. Obama could have settled it much earlier had he wanted to.
Birthers are people who are unsatisfied with the evidence (and they had some reason to be for a few years) and thus fear (or hope) that Obama is not legally qualified to be President. I think they're wrong, but their doubt doesn't make them racists.
veterans (you know, those of us who fought for your freedoms)
You might be amazed how much someone who was also in the military (and I have the commission document and the honorable discharge to prove it) dislikes having someone else assume that anyone who disagrees with him must not have served. Almost as much as I dislike someone making the assumption that service in the military is the only valid marker for having a valid opinion on this country.
The birthers just looked for anything to potentially hamper the presidentship of a guy they disliked for ideological reasons. Wouldn't have made a difference if Obama was creamy-white.
Really, ascribing racism to any statistically significant portion of the "right" is a huge strawman.
Obama is speaking to history. However much he would like there to be something everyone can agree on, his opponents will consider any agreement as coming with a price so will refuse to agree unless he yields on something he disagrees with, but this is just considered as a further agreement that requires more concessions. There will be no agreement. There can be no agreement. Not when the only possible agreement is total surrender.
Our current political debacle is an example of ideology trumping fact, emotion trumping reason, and our American tendency to treat politics as an extension of parochial religious fervor. President Obama has some good points and some bad points, except for those who are extremists. In this case, his points are either all good or all bad. That's a simply irrational and destructive approach to politics and government, but that's where we are. A better approach to figuring out what is actually going on, is to look at non hot bottom issues. For example, Obama is religious, but not a missionary type who wants to convert people to his church and his pew. However, his die hard Tea Party adversaries lug around the notion that they and only they have seen the true light. In far too many Tea Party cases, this is a white, little, clean and neat light. And they instinctively "know" that any other kind of light is not really American. That's probably why so many Tea Partiers prefer to believe that Obama was not born in America and is a closet Muslim. No wonder the Tea Party won't compromise: true believers would rather go down in flames, then let their own parochial,little white light go out. To them, Obama is different and therefore threatens them.
Ninety-five percent (or more) of the vocalized opposition reasoning to Obama is racism, pure and simple. The Shrub went on television to announce war for existential reasons, an then proceeded to cut taxes, not raise them. NOT ONE POLITICIAN has put forth a plan to raise taxes to cover the costs of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Yet the Republicans whine that Obama wouldn't "negotiate" after the Republicans themselves took higher taxes and revenues off the table. Nowhere, either, will you see a Republican advocating special taxes on Wall Street to recoup the $700 billion (not counting interest) that the Shrub gave them in September, 2008, when his refusal to enforce existing regulations and the contradictions in his own financial policies finally imploded the economy.
So no, it's not a question of ideology trumping fact, emotion over reason, etc. It's racism. Deficits don't count (per Vice President Cheney)-- unless a black is in the Oval Office. "Negotiations" -- per the Republicans -- require the Democrats to agree to spending cuts only, with no revenue increases, right from the jump.
Intelligent conversation requires at least two intelligent people, and so far the Tea Party hasn't shown any brains. What is sad is that when the Chinese were moving from caring about the color of the cat to the efficiency of the cat, Americans were moving in the opposite direction.
You do a great job proving the point of the previous poster at first I thought you were sarcastic.
Actually I was agreeing with him, and just pointing out that the "difference" the tea party sees is racism. They want to whine about Obama's deficits? Too bad their silence during the Shrub's administration on that score was deafening.
BS. The race card has already been overplayed. Anyway, he's as white as he is black, so it's a non-issue.
"Anyway, he's as white as he is black, so it's a non-issue."
Your lack of knowledge about race in America is showing. Jim Crow laws have always held that if you had "just one drop of negro blood" then you were classified as black.
So if his opposition fixates on Obama being black, then they're being consistent with American attitudes about race. Besides, you assume that opponents and proponents of a position are always rational, and they aren't.

The opposition are not the racists. Obama and his supporters are the ones who fixate on him being black: "The first black president", etc. etc. Do you hear the Republicans focus on his racial status ?? By the way, I worked for the U.S. Govt for 24+ years, with all races, and attended mandatory "Equal Opportunity" classes. YOU'RE the one who has the lack of knowledge, and lives in the past. Jim Crow ?? Who ?
And defunct ancient laws are a relevant point in the debate of modern day american sentiment in what universe?
Not this one, that's for sure.

I suspect that it is the gap detection that is causing this. Foobar only converts what is played so in this case, no gaps are not appended. The original TOC contains 2 second silence, however since the index00s are not part of the disc and are created by EAC the "TOC" of the new files is different to the original. So when looking up this new TOC it is not found in the database.
Removing all the index 00s should work. |

In summer, most berries demand nothing more than picking. But when it comes to raspberries, some pruning sets the stage for bountiful berries again next year.
Pruning is a perfect chore for late-winter and early spring because most trees and shrubs are dormant. What's more, it's the time of year when there are few gardening tasks on your list.
