Summer box office nears record high |
Posted Sept. 24, 2007 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
With the end of beach tans and the start of textbooks flipping open, the summer movie season is in the history books. The season, which typically starts the first weekend in May and heads through Labor Day weekend, is usually the time that big film production companies roll out their action-packed, top-notched thrill movies. This summer season was no different. This season headed towards breaking the previous summer box office record set in 2004 to be the first summer to hit $4 billion, according to research firm Media by Numbers. Potential summer popcorn flicks were rolled out almost simultaneously, leaving some ULV students in the dusk, but people still found time to see their favorite flicks. "I thought it was the best I have experienced thus far," senior business major Wes Pohlmann said. Usually big action movies would dominate the summer box-office platform, however, this summer season also saw genres like comedies such as "Superbad" and "Knocked Up," to musicals like "Hairspray," became student's cult favorites. "Superbad," a slapstick comedic film following three high school buddies on one of their last nights as adolescents, struck a huge cord with many ULV students. Quotes from the movie are passed through conversations and the movie has instantly become a cult classic. "It was the most original idea," Paul Bennett, a junior political science major said "And it was appealing to my age group." "It's like the 'Animal House' of our generation," Pohlmann said. Comedies may have won ULV hearts, but students still found some time to watch the classic action-packed films typically released in the summer. "I'm just a big fan of blowing stuff up," freshman Phil Velasco said. "Spiderman 3" benefited from its early start to become the biggest box-office grossing film of the year with $336,530,303, according to boxofficemojo.com. Other winners of this summer include "Shrek the Third," "Pirates" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix." "'Harry Potter' was amazing. I'm a big 'Harry Potter' fan," senior biology major Connie Elejalde said. "I'd see it again if the movies weren't so expensive." This summer also saw popular TV shows, such as "The Simpsons," adapted for the big screen. Also everyone's favorite alien robots came to life in the live action version of "Transformers." "It had really good special effects and I liked how the 'Transformers' transformed fluidly," sophomore social science major Roddy Cobb Jr. said. "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" received horrible reviews andperformed poorly at the box-office, as did "Rush Hour 3." But the biggest summer loser was "Evan Almighty" starring Steve Carrell, the sequel to "Bruce Almighty." With a dismal total of $98,972,000, according to boxofficemojo.com, "Evan Almighty" didn't even recuperate the amount it cost to make the film. Some students point to Hollywood's sadistic nature to make a profit rather than just to make an entertaining movie to watch. "'Live Free or Die Hard' is one of the biggest sell-outs of the year because of the rating," senior English major Josh Thigpen said. "Anybody that knows anything about the 'Die Hard' series knows that it's violent and I believe that the PG-13 rating, because it appeals to a wider audience, sold out against the ambience of the first three films." Others felt displeasure at some of the summer's most celebrated films. Dramatic releases, such as "Rescue Dawn" starring Christian Bale and "A Mighty Heart" starring Angelina Jolie, were some of the year's best-reviewed films. Unfortunately the success of these films did not translate into dollars. Many people feel that the interest in the film is more important than movie reviews given by journalists. "I think no matter how good the reviews for the film are, if the plot (or) storyline doesn't appeal to me, I won't see it," Bennett said. "I do work at a video store and I could see it for free, but I do love the movie experience," Pohlmann said. Jonathan Smith can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

This is a very standard, but good, water-soluble gel cleanser suitable for normal to oily skin. There's nothing too remarkable about the formula, but it rinses cleanly, removes most types of makeup, and won't leave skin feeling tight or dry. It's also inexpensive, although not quite as generously sized as many cleansers at the drugstore.
Avon added the plant extract Leontopodium alpinum leaf (edelweiss), which has anti-inflammatory properties (Sources: Mediators of Inflammation, October 2012 ePublication; Journal of Applied Toxicology, January 2009, pages 7–14; and Journal of Ethnopharmacology, May 2006, pages 421–426), but most of the benefit you might get from it is rinsed down the drain because this cleanser is meant to be rinsed off completely. (You never really want to leave cleansing ingredients on the skin for more than a few seconds.)
Last, the "hypoallergenic" claim is misleading, as we explain in the More Info section. In terms of this being suitable for sensitive skin: This cleanser contains fragrance and a few other ingredients that research shows are at best questionable if the company's goal is to create a cleanser appropriate for truly sensitive skin, or any skin type for that matter.
"Hypoallergenic" is little more than a nonsense word meant to make products sound safer or somehow better for sensitive skin. There are no accepted testing methods, ingredient restrictions, regulations, guidelines, rules, or procedures of any kind, anywhere in the world, for determining whether or not a product qualifies as being hypoallergenic. Any company can label any product "hypoallergenic" because there is no regulation that says they can't, no matter what proof they may point to—and what proof can they provide given there is no standard against which to measure? Given that there are no regulations governing this supposed category, which was made up by the cosmetics industry, there are plenty of products labeled "hypoallergenic" that actually contain problematic ingredients and that can indeed trigger allergic reactions, even for those with no previous history of skin sensitivity. The word "hypoallergenic" gives you no reliable understanding of what you are or aren't putting on your skin (Sources: www.fda.gov; Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, May 2004, pages 325–327; and Ostomy and Wound Management, March 2003, pages 20–21).
Gently foaming cleanser deeply cleans pores. With Pro-Vitamin B5. Hypoallergenic. Suitable for sensitive skin.
Water/Eau, Glycerin, Sorbitol, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate, Leontopodium Alpinum Flower/Leaf Extract, Panthenol, PEG-120 Methyl Glucose Dioleate, Sodium Citrate, Parfum/Fragrance, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Disodium EDTA, Methylparaben, Citric Acid, Benzophenone-4, Blue 1, Yellow 10
Avon At-A-Glance
Strengths: Broad-spectrum sun protection from most of the SPF products; a selection of good cleansers, moisturizers, and serums; a phenomenal concealer and a handful of other excellent makeup products at bargain prices; the company provides complete ingredient lists on its Web site and offers some of the most helpful Customer Service associates in the industry.
Weaknesses: The Clearskin products are mostly irritating and poor choices for anyone battling blemishes; the Anew Clinical lineup isn't as impressive as its made out to be; an overreliance on jar packaging diminishes the antioxidants found in many Avon moisturizers; endless, unnecessarily repetitive moisturizers with exaggerated, outlandish claims; some of the foundations look unnatural.
The last few years have been an interesting time for the world's largest direct seller. Avon is sold in 120 countries and has an enormous range of products that goes beyond skin care and makeup, all sold by five million Avon representatives racking up annual sales of over $8 billion (Source: www.avoncompany.com). Yet due to several quarters of lackluster or poor financial performance, the company announced a multiyear restructuring plan in 2006. The anticipated cost of these changes is upwards of $500 million, which includes downsizing underperforming areas and focusing on remarketing their star products. In recent years, those key products have had "cosmeceutical" appeal, with claims that have gone beyond reality (but overexaggerated claims sell big in the cosmetics industry).
The Anew Clinical line ushered in several products claiming to work like (or, in some instances, better than) cosmetic corrective procedures. Whether you are considering laser treatments, Botox, Thermage, collagen injections, or even liposuction, the ads for Anew Clinical were designed to make you rethink that decision.
It is definitely impressive that Avon invested $100 million on a state-of-the-art research and product development facility in New York, but despite some innovative products that compete with the best of the best (typically for much less money), no cosmetics company has (or will) produce skin-care products that rival or beat the results obtainable from medical procedures. It's admittedly easier to slather on a cream or stroke a pad over your face than to make an office call and shoulder the expense for a cosmetic corrective procedure, but in this case convenience and savings don't equal—or even come close to—comparable results. And lest we forget, despite the onslaught of so-called cosmeceutical products claiming to mimic the results such procedures provide, the number of these procedures being performed increases each year. If any of these works-like-(insert cosmetic corrective procedure here) products did work, the number of procedures would be declining, not rising.
The National Advertising Division (NAD) took issue with several claims Avon made in ads for their Anew Clinical products (Source: www.nadreview.org/default.asp?SessionID=1149178&DocType=1&CaseType=1). In some cases, Avon reworded their claims in ad reprints, while in others they "respectfully disagreed" with the NAD conclusions but agreed to take their comments into consideration for future ads. We'll see how this turns out, but, based on their current ads, the message remains that Anew Clinical products are at the forefront of making cosmetic corrective procedure results as easy as calling your Avon representative and reciting your credit card number.
As a major international cosmetics company, Avon has several initiatives in place that prove its commitment to women and the environment. Whether donating to women's health concerns (most notably breast cancer), surpassing environmental regulations, or financially supporting alternative methods to animal testing, Avon's principles are responsible and admirable. If you pay attention to the best of what they have to offer, you will not only be supporting Avon's mission to improve the lives of women but also gaining some wonderful products, making it a win-win situation.
The bad news is that unless you know what you want and order from Avon's Web site, dealing with an Avon representative tends to be a frustrating experience. Try as they might, most of them are mere order-takers. They cannot keep up with the product assortment, sales, and changes that occur between Avon's "campaigns." One of the representatives we dealt with was quite frank about how much she didn't know, and mentioned that they are not kept as up-to-date as they should be, not to mention the haphazard assortment of testers or samples available. On the flipside, Avon is a wonderful mail-order company should you need to return or exchange products. Unlike companies with a similar business model (Arbonne comes to mind), Avon makes the process smooth and hassle-free, with a "if you're not happy, we're not" motto that epitomizes outstanding customer service.

Avon Makeup
If you've been noticing more magazine and television ads for Avon recently, it's no accident. According to an article in the November 21, 2005, issue of The Rose Sheet, Avon's ad spending through 2008 will reach "historical heights" due in part to the brand's flat performance the past couple of years. Avon's CEO Andrea Jung admitted that the company's makeup business has struggled due to increased competition, a point we wholeheartedly agree with. Avon may be viewed as a skin-care innovator, but when it comes to makeup they're more follow-the-leaders than trail blazers. Admittedly, their foundations, powders, blush, and lipsticks have smoother, more state-of-the-art textures than ever, but with few exceptions none of them are setting a precedent that other, more innovative companies are likely to follow.
You will find some outstanding Avon makeup products to consider, but perhaps due to the sheer size of the collection there are far too many mediocre products, especially among the eyeshadows, pencils, and mascaras. Given that Avon isn't as easy to obtain as comparable products at your local drug or department store, many of the makeup items end up being a tough sell. After all, who wants to go out of their way for average products? Turning to what Avon does really well, you'll find their loose and pressed powders have amazingly silky textures and natural finishes. Their blushes are wonderful, and a few of the lipsticks and foundations are definitely worth talking about with enthusiasm. Another positive point is that Avon regularly discounts their makeup, often upwards of 50% during any given campaign (Avon's campaigns run for two weeks and the specials change each time). If you shop at the right time, the best of Avon color can be yours for less than you'd pay for most low-cost drugstore makeup.

Hopefully ive found the correct area for this thread.
Ive got an 07 Tacoma acess cab, the night before last i blew out the front left tire at about 60 MPH, came to a controlled stop about 200 yards later( i was on a transition ramp and had to get off of it).
I had to have the truck towed as i didnt have the jack or tool to drop the spare with me( i just got this truck form brother in law and somehow he managed to leave these things elsewhere).
So, after i got it home, i was able to drop and install the spare.
I noticed the next time i drove it that the yellow ABS light and the red BRAKE lights are both illuminated.
Brake fluid reservoir is at max line.
I read somewhere that i can jump certain pins in the OBDII to get codes, but want to make certain i get the correct directions.
Any other thoughts on what to check or what may be the issue?
Thanks !

Tracy, One thing you might want to check out is the Eisenhower funds. Each district in the country has these available. If the local money is used, you might check the state office and see if they have funding available for your purpose. There are some problems that I have had in the past getting these funds. Most had to do with the district. They had either already inappropriately allocated the funds, or in some cases, had not done the paper work to get the funds in the first place. Ask your local curriculum person about these. If s/ he doesn't know, call a regional or state office to get more information. Good Luck ! -Rick, for the Teacher2Teacher service

"Amazing!! Never Had Acne Results..."
I wanted to share my Isolaz experience because it worked so well and completely changed my skin! I am 23 and have had acne since my early teens, small pimples all over, but a lot on my cheeks. Tried antibiotics, the pill, blue light box, topicals, nothing worked. It was easily covered by makeup but I hated having to wear foundation everywhere I went. I had read about it online and looked up a... more

We just installed some recessed lighting. We had quite a few--9 on the same switch. When we turned on the lights, they all came on, but after about 10 min, they started blinking out one by one. We thought they were blowing out, but after a couple of minutes they came back on one at a time. Any ideas on what is going on with them or how to fix it?

- blinking lights
Your recessed lights are thermally protected. This means they have an automatic switch inside them that is heat sensitive. Try using a lower wattage lamp. Make sure the insulation in the attic is not right up on top of the fixture, unless it is rated for such installation, Even then sometimes pulling the isulation back will help dissipate heat.
[This message has been edited by ElectrcBil (edited September 10, 2000).]
Thank You. The recessed lights we installed were rated for 75 to 100 watt bulbs. We put different wattages ranging form 60 to 100 to see what kind of light we wanted and the 100 watts were the ones that blinked the most. However, even the 60 watt bulbs after awhile started blinking. We haven't installed the baffles yet. Would that make a difference in thier performance?

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Affair proves you need to be single
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I'm 24 and a pretty hot-blooded woman. I went to a bar alone during my Christmas mini-holiday and met a guy there. My boyfriend -- my childhood sweetheart -- was out of town for the holidays at his parents' in Toronto and I was lonely. The bar guy invited me to dinner, and the next day we saw a movie together. Now, this is the bad part -- last night we snuck out for drinks again even though my boyfriend is home now. I can't seem to leave the new guy alone. We've never consummated the sexual thing, but each time we necked for hours in his car. I really want him in the worst way. My boyfriend is a good enough lover, but I am so used to his moves. He is totally predictable. Does this mean I should break up with my boyfriend, or should I just go to bed with this guy, get it over with and find out he's no good in the sack then go back to my boyfriend and maybe marry him one day? -- Undecided "Cheater," St. Vital
Dear Undecided: You need to break up with your long-term boyfriend because this sneaky little affair is not fair to him. How would you feel if he were sneaking off to see another woman and necking for hours with her? If you 100 per cent wanted to marry your boyfriend, you would have gone to a movie with a girlfriend instead of off to a bar, whose lone-wolf inhabitants are generally male. Tell your boyfriend you're unsure of your feelings about permanency with him and need to be single again for a time, as you haven't dated anyone else since you met him years ago. He will probably tell you the door is closed for good once you go, but that is a chance you have to take.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: This is in response to Almost at the End, St. Vital, whose girlfriend has a large and growing number of pets. There are warning signs of animal hoarding here. The want or need to keep "an insane zoo family" is not psychologically healthy. My family has three dogs and two cats and it takes a ton of daily work and dedication for three adults to clean, train, exercise and provide daily care and socialization for all of them, as well as keep a clean home. Potential problems? Financial resources for proper food and vet bills, juggling vacation plans and weekend getaways can be taxing on a dedicated family. This guy is being sexually manipulated into her hoarding needs. It will be the animals that suffer, perhaps not physically, but emotionally and socially. It is not possible for two people to take proper care of such a myriad of species. -- Tell Her To Get Help! Winnipeg
Dear Tell Her: You're right! So consider her told by you and me that she should talk to a counsellor or a shrink about her growing need to add more and more animals to the menagerie. It's breaking up her human relationship and is not fair to the critters in her care.

Chefs Boot Camp for Policy and Change
"Now, with the leadership of the James Beard Foundation, chefs have even more of an opportunity to become educated and empowered to help advocate for the change we have spent our careers striving for. I have yet another reason to be a chef: because I want to create a food system in which it is a right, not a privilege, for everyone on the planet to enjoy healthy, sustainable food."
–Maria Hines, JBF Award–winning chef of Golden Beetle and Tilth in Seattle
Background and How to Apply
The Chefs Boot Camp for Policy and Change provides a unique opportunity for civically and politically minded chefs to become more effective leaders for food-system change. During thematic retreats around the country, participants receive advocacy and media training while learning about important issues, challenges, and opportunities facing the food world. The goal is to build a growing network of like-minded chefs, provide support for personal interests and passions, and give tools and guidance that will help them act as influential advocates.
The James Beard Foundation accepts applications for Chefs Boot Camp on a rolling basis.
Each gathering of Chefs Boot Camp encompasses:
- A geographically, culturally, and demographically diverse group of 15 chefs
- A unique destination to facilitate group cohesion
- Policy and media training by industry and political experts on specific food-system topics
- Hands-on activities that engage chefs with local natural resources, such as harvesting and visits to local farms, slaughterhouses, fisheries, and other producers
- A collaborative dinner prepared by the participating chefs
- Educational sessions about pressing food-system topics, such as the Farm Bill or sustainable fisheries
- Exposure to campaigns of partner organizations, such as the Pew Charitable Trusts' campaign against antibiotic overuse in livestock
- Strategic brainstorming about effective action points and next steps

When Sergeant Long's company, poised in a defensive perimeter on Hill 300, was viciously attacked by a numerically superior hostile force at approximately 0300 hours and ordered to withdraw, Sergeant Long, a forward observer for the mortar platoon, voluntarily remained at his post to provide cover by directing mortar fire on the enemy. Maintaining radio contact with his platoon, Sergeant Long coolly directed accurate mortar fire on the advancing foe. He continued firing his carbine and throwing hand grenades until his position was surrounded and he was mortally wounded. Sergeant Long's inspirational, valorous action halted the onslaught, exacted a heavy toll of enemy casualties, and enabled his company to withdraw, reorganize, counterattack, and regain the hill strongpoint.

KC area guys create parody of Lorde's 'Royals' about the Kansas City Royals
With baseball season officially kicking off this week, it had to happen, right?
John Leslie Long, a 19-year-old singer/songwriter from Lee's Summit, stars in a parody of Lorde's hit "Royals" about our own Kansas City Royals, opening their season today.
Long, who is studying marketing at Evangel University in Springfield, is also a worship leader at World Revival Church in Kansas City.
A few months ago fellow church member Aaron Lage told him that he had an "awesome idea" and showed Long parody lyrics he had written to the music of the monster hit. "The words went perfectly with the music," says Long, who recorded the song.
The song starts:
A baseball diamond green and fresh
I cut my teeth on series rings in the '80s
I'm quite proud of my address
In a crazy town, Kansas City.
And goes on to say:
But everybody's like, Cardinals, Red Sox, what about the Yankees
Mets, Braves, Marlins, Tigers and the Phillies
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair.
Long and the buddy who lives across the hall from him at school, Aaron Durkalski, came to town in January and recorded scenes for the video. Durkalski then spent weeks editing the video, which was posted on Sunday.
Local sports media were quick to pounce, hitting up Long and Lage for interviews today.
"It was just a little idea to make a music video, and now we're here," says Long, who fielded interview requests on his way to class early Monday.
We think that Lorde, real name Ella Yelich-O'Connor, will love this parody, as the KC Royals had
a small part in inspiring her to write the Grammy-winning song. Also, when her tour came through Kansas City recently, the Royals gifted the teen pop starwith her own George Brett jersey.
And just for opening day, here's another "Royals" parody to watch on YouTube – low production value but great lyrics. Click

The Kansas City Star is pleased to provide this opportunity to share information, experiences and observations about what's in the news. Some of the comments may be reprinted elsewhere on the site or in the newspaper.

责任: | translated, edited, and with an introduction by Harlow Robinson. |
This volume collects for the first time in English the most representative and enlightening of Prokofiev's letters, including some previously suppressed missives that have never before been published. Expertly translated and annotated by Harlow Robinson, the correspondence presented here covers Prokofiev's earliest years at St. Petersburg Conservatory, his extensive worldwide travels, and his return to Moscow.
Among the correspondents are childhood friend Vera Alpers, harpist Eleonora Damskaya, ballet impresario Sergei Diaghilev, theatrical director Vsevolod Meyerhold, Soviet critic Boris Asafiev, composers Vernon Duke and Nikolai Miaskovsky, soprano Nina Koshetz, musicologist Nicolas Slonimsky, violinist Jascha Heifetz, conductor Serge Koussevitsky, and film director Sergei Eisenstein. Prokofiev vividly describes, often with dramatic flair and a quirky sense of humor, concerts, performances, his compositions, political events, and meetings with other musicians and composers. His observations are peppered with musical gossip as well as eccentric, original, and disarmingly apolitical insights.

The Healing Improvisation of Hair By Jay Wright
If you undo your do you would
be strange. Hair has been on my mind.
I used to lean in the doorway
and watch my stony woman wind
the copper through the black, and play
with my understanding, show me she cóuld
take a cup of river water,
and watch it shimmy, watch it change,
turn around and become ash bone.
Wind in the cottonwoods wakes me
to a day so thin its breastbone
shows, so paid out it shakes me free
of its blue dust. I will arrange
that river water, bottom juice.
I conjure my head in the stream
and ride with the silk feel of it
as my woman bathes me, and shaves
away the scorn, sponges the grit
of solitude from my skin, laves
the salt water of self-esteem
over my feathering body.
How like joy to come upon me
in remembering a head of hair
and the way water would caress
it, and stress beauty in the flair
and cut of the only witness
to my dance under sorrow's tree.
This swift darkness is spring's first hour.
I carried my life, like a stone,
in a ragged pocket, but I
had a true weaving song, a sly
way with rhythm, a healing tone.

I can't add a whole lot to this excellent Hardball Times analysis by Jeff Sackmann of the Mets' overpaying for Scott Schoenweis, signed for $10.8 million (slightly larger, albeit for two more seasons, than Tom Glavine's contract). Schoenweis might turn out to be a valuable contributor, but I'd be very surprised if he is good enough to justify the expense. I would add one ameliorating factor that Sackmann overlooks: yes, Schoenweis has walked a lot of guys recently, but as is often true of guys who pitch a lot of partial innings in middle relief, 11 of his 49 walks the past two years were intentional; his actual rate of unintentional walks in that period is 3.15 per 9 innings.
My hope is that the change of leagues will help him out. Look at his numbers in the (brief) stint in the Great American Bandbox.

Good overnight with very tight spots. Grounds were nice. Lots of lights thru out the park. Not far off interstate. We would stay again for overnight if in area. - southernsky
This is a hidden gem - we had a great site - close to the bathroom and the park was sparsely filled. It's close to a hiking area and near the falls and park area. We also played golf at a nearby course and found getting around Gadsden very easy. We would definitely stay here but only in the off season as I'm sure it fills up in the peak periods. - ncflyguy
The overall park atmosphere is great. The walking trails through the woods are about 6 feet wide and completely graveled to make the up and down trek much easier. There are wooden bridges along the way as well as benches for resting. Each tenth of a mile is marked so you know how far you have gone. There are also many more smaller side trails for more hiking and biking. The Falls are great and for the more serious adventurer you can hike to the bottom and behind the falls either from the campground(not the easiest) or from the next door park(zoo). The park has a petting animal area and a small train and a few other activities. The showers were very clean. The only negative I had was I thought the overall park was geared for smaller trailers. We camped in a 42 ft RV. Almost all electrical and sewer are located at the very back of the sites. The roads are a bit narrow, but navigable if going very slowly. - Mayonnaise Farmer

I really liked this campground, though it was near impossible to maneuver my 45' rig into a spot. With some excellent guidance from staff and the watchful eye of my wife, we made it. Barely. The swimming pools are pretty nice (deep blue from a liner in the cement pond) one of which is an infinity pool. Sites are available on the river and the bay for $2/night more, and worth that little bit. The do niggle the prices a bit too much, but it's still relatively inexpensive. I had to leave one night early and no refund, but they tell me I will have a credit for the next time, which is reasonable. They need to make bigger sites. Yes, they give you two because one couldn't possibly fit a motorhome and a towed, but if they reconfigured to have fewer, larger spaces everyone would be happier. - Sawbonz
Gravel roads and sites, not much grass around. It is right on the river, so nice setting. Good water pressure and WiFi. The electrical power is towards the front of the site, but not a problem. Cable was good. We were escorted to the site and the staff was friendly and helpful. Would stay here again if ever in the area. - ETX
This is the second time we stayed here and it had improved since last year even though we loved it last year! The pool area is even more beautiful than before. The people in the office couldn't be nicer. I wish we had another day or so here. It has gravel roads and it's kinda messy when it rains but we still Love it! - Debbie t

Too Much Love: Schultz Suspended
Submitted By Todd on May 26th at 4:23am
It's not easy being a liberal love machine. All that compassion is a burden to carry around, and some people crack under the weight. Like Ed Schultz, who's been suspended for calling Laura Ingraham a slut.

St. Paul, Minn., (CNNMoney) - Democratic governor Mark Dayton and leaders of the Republican-controlled legislature have reach a deal that will close the Minnesota's budget gap end the state's government shutdown "within days."
"It is my understanding that we have reached an agreement," Dayton said, as the visibly tired legislators emerged from a three hour meeting at the Capitol to speak to press.
FULL STORYWashington (CNN) - The Obama administration Thursday evening asked a federal appeals court to reconsider its order last week blocking the U.S. military from enforcing its "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays and lesbians serving in the military.
U.S. officials have been moving ahead with dismantling the policy but had objected to having the courts force the government to officially repeal it at this time.
FULL STORY(CNN) - President Barack Obama will hold a news conference at 11 a.m. Friday on efforts to reach a deal on the debt ceiling and budget cuts, according to a senior administration official.
(CNN) – Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani said he expects the power players in Washington to wait until the final hours of negotiations to strike a deal on the debt ceiling.
"That's a good strategy for both sides," Giuliani told reporters Thursday at an event hosted by the Seacoast Republican Women in Hampton, N.H. "That's what a good poker player does."
(CNN) - Republican Govs. Rick Perry of Texas and Nikki Haley of South Carolina urged Washington to follow in their states footsteps by instituting budget cuts, caps on future spending and a balanced budget amendment, cornerstones of the "Cut Cap and Balance Pledge" they signed.
In an op-ed in the Washington Post, the two governors said the system in Washington enables elected officials to avoid making the tough fiscal decisions required at the state level.
(CNN) – It's hard not to be a bit cynical in watching politics unfold in Washington.
As you know, the Republicans are all lined up resisting any effort to simply pass an increase in the nation's debt ceiling with a straight up-or-down vote. They insist on large-scale spending cuts.
FULL STORYWashington (CNN) - President Barack Obama and top congressional leaders met for a fifth straight day Thursday as the White House said the negotiators will have to shift their focus to increasing the federal debt ceiling if they fail to make significant progress by Friday toward a comprehensive deficit reduction deal that would cut spending and raise taxes.
White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters the same thing Obama said at the talks the day before - Friday is the deadline to decide whether a broad agreement on debt reduction is feasible at this time.
FULL STORYWashington (CNN) - Accused by Democrats and a few of his Republican rivals of taking a low profile on the debt talks between Congressional leaders and the White House, GOP front-runner Mitt Romney has now hit the ceiling.
At a town hall meeting in the early voting state of New Hampshire Thursday, the former Massachusetts governor drew a "line in the sand," saying nothing short of the "Cut, Cap, and Balance" plan proposed by several conservative Republicans is acceptable as a condition for raising the debt ceiling.
