11/3/14 LiLo Dating Tom Cruise?
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, November 3, 2014
This seems pretty far-fetched, but "OK!" magazine claims TOM CRUISE is having relations with LINDSAY LOHAN. They're both in London, and they supposedly exchanged numbers after meeting at a club. A source says, quote, "Lindsay has been craving the security and sophistication that comes with dating an older man . . . She's head over heels." In addition to physical, Lindsay also hopes hooking up with Tom will revitalize her career. And Tom hopes Lindsay will, quote, "help him relax and have more fun." Meanwhile, the British tabloids say Tom is actually making time with ORLANDO BLOOM's ex-girlfriend MIRANDA KERR. A source says they've been meeting up secretly and will go public soon.
This totally sounds like a hoax story for Halloween, but a British singer named KATIE MELUA recently went to the doctor because of a scratching noise in her head . . . and found she had a SPIDER living in her ear. It was a jumping spider, and it had been in there for a WEEK. They think it might have crawled in off a pair of headphones she used on a flight . . . an ear specialist used a suction device to get it out.
10/31/14 Amanda Bynes Released

Friday, October 31, 2014
Don't be fooled this Halloween if you see somebody dressed as "Amanda Bynes." It may be the real deal. Last night, Amanda was released from the psychiatric facility near Los Angeles. It took her no time to reach the heart of Hollywood. The paparazzi snapped photos of Amanda walking Sunset Boulevard, acting as if she was on the phone. TMZ reports she was "talking to herself." A witness reported she was famished and devoured "fried chicken, salmon, and a caesar salad with guacamole." Earlier in the day, Amanda requested a release from her "involuntary psychiatric hold." And an unnamed official determined that Amanda has stabilized under professional care and regular meds.
Nobody will admit that BRUCE JENNER is on the way to becoming a woman . . . but the evidence is mounting that at the very least, he's been exploring his feminine side. And that's fine. Although maybe not for everyone. . . Friends say KRIS JENNER is EMBARRASSED by the whole thing, and that's why she didn't join her five daughters in celebrating Bruce's 65th birthday earlier this week. A source says, quote, "Kris was very upset that Bruce was photographed on his birthday wearing pink nail polish. It's embarrassing for her. That is the reason why Kris wasn't there."
KIM KARDASHIAN may have accidentally announced that she's pregnant again. During an interview with a British fashion blog, she was asked what kind of clothes she wore when she was pregnant with her daughter North. She said, quote, "I wore my regular clothes and I would just buy a size up. I don't know if I would necessarily do that this time around . . . Pregnancy style is hard."
KALEY CUOCO has learned something after being caught up in that nude photo hacking scandal: Downgrade your technology. She joked, quote, "I've now taken to Polaroid cameras, so I just carry a big Polaroid around my neck, self-aroid, that's what I do now. No one can get those. Polaroid cameras, that's the way to go."
10/30/14 Jessica Biel Pregnant?
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Thursday, October 30, 2014
Everyone in the universe is reporting that JESSICA BIEL might be pregnant. Radar Online talked to a supposed "close pal" who said, quote, "Jessica is at least three months pregnant, and she's due in April." If this is true, it'll be the first child for both Jessica and JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE.
Before he hooked up with JENNY MCCARTHY, DONNIE WAHLBERG was the biggest MAN-WHORE in NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK. At least onstage he was. JOEY MCINTYRE says, quote, "For a while, Donnie was like literally making out with girls the last tour, and it was right before he met Jenny and got married, so I don't think he's doing that [anymore]. And, as a fellow dude I'm like, 'Thank God,' because he would just be swapping spit with these girls in the middle of a song, you know, but that's love, right? That's love. And the girls were happy . . . he's a lover, that guy."
SANDRA BULLOCK rushed to the aid of an extra who collapsed on the set of her new movie on Sunday. The film is called "Our Brand is Crisis", and it's shooting in New Orleans. Despite the heat, everyone was supposed to wear warm clothes . . . and one woman passed out because she couldn't take the heat. Sandra rushed to the rescue, getting the woman to shade, giving her water and fanning her until an ambulance arrived. BILLY BOB THORNTON is in the movie, too, but he just kind of stood there and watched.
A Kansas woman inspired by the petition that got "Breaking Bad" toys pulled from the shelves of Toys 'R' Us started a petition of her own to get Babies 'R' Us to drop the Kardashian Kids clothing line. She writes, quote, "I don't want my child to grow up to be a Sex Tape star. You pulled the 'Breaking Bad' toys because they promoted Drug use. You should pull this clothing line because it promotes bad behavior as well. The madness has to stop. If the toys are damaging so is the clothing." As of last night, the petition had over 1,800 signatures.
PATRICK SWAYZE'S last will left pretty much his entire $40 MILLION estate to his widow, Lisa Niemi . . . while his mother, sister and two brothers received nothing. Now, those family members are questioning the will . . . and they believe there's a chance it could've been FORGED.
AMANDA BYNES' mother Lynn Bynes has been granted a temporary conservatorship over Amanda, who will spend at least another month being held under an involuntary psychiatric hold. To get it, Amanda's parents told a judge that she is a, quote, "substantial risk to herself" and others, and rattled off all the stuff we've heard about . . . the DUIs, the shoplifting, the bizarre and violent behavior, et cetera.
But they also said she was spending "alarming amounts" of money . . . and was buying gifts for strangers, including expensive jewelry from Cartier. They say her net worth is currently $5.7 million, and her only income is from a rental property.
10/29/14 Bruce Jenner Gets Pink Nails
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Wegg
Wednesday, October 29, 2014
JULIA ROBERTS turned 47 yesterday, and she's one of the rare actresses of that age who has yet to mess with her face. She says, quote, "By Hollywood standards, I guess I've already taken a big risk in not having had a facelift."
BRUCE JENNER turned 65 yesterday, and he celebrated with a little ME TIME . . . which included GETTING HIS FINGERNAILS PAINTED PINK. For real. And there are pictures to prove it. Meanwhile, KHLOE and KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN say Bruce is BORING, because all he ever wants for his birthday is a gift certificate to support his remote control helicopter hobby.
JOSE CANSECO shot off his left middle finger while cleaning a handgun in his house. Jose's fiancée Leila Knight was there when it happened. She says he was cleaning the gun at his kitchen table, and he didn't know it was loaded. She told the "L.A. Times", quote, "I heard the gun go off and saw his middle finger hanging by a string. It will either have to be amputated or have full reconstruction surgery." As of last night Jose was in surgery, and doctors were going to try to do as much as possible. But the bullet ripped through the bottom part of his finger, so even under the best circumstances, he'll never have full use of it again.
AMANDA BYNES is not sane enough to be unleashed upon the world. She was due to be released this week, but a judge ordered her to spend at least 30 more days under 24-hour psychiatric care. Also, Amanda's mom has officially petitioned to become her conservator once again.
10/28/14 Jennifer Lawrence Breaks it Off
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, October 28, 2014
JENNIFER LAWRENCE and CHRIS MARTIN have CONSCIOUSLY UNCOUPLED . . . and a source says it was Jennifer who did the uncoupling. Officially, we don't know why . . . but those ever-present anonymous sources say it's all about GWYNETH PALTROW . . . quote, "Jennifer just couldn't compete and didn't want to. Chris is clearly not over Gwyneth and his main priority is his kids. Jennifer really respects him, but she wants a man of her own."
An Argentinian journalist says ANNE HATHAWAY refused to shake his hand, because she was afraid to catch Ebola . . . which nobody in Argentina apparently has. Alexis Puig flew to L.A. for a screening of Anne's new movie "Interstellar". And he says everybody else he interviewed shook his hand, from co-stars Matthew McConaughey and Jessica Chastain to director Christopher Nolan. But he Tweeted, quote, "Anne Hathaway didn't shake my hand because she was afraid of Ebola. #I'mAThirdWorldJournalist."
HUGH JACKMAN was recently treated for skin cancer . . . for the third time in a year. But he will NOT DIE. We assume. It was a minor thing, and his rep says it's "all good" now.
Don't expect to see RUSSELL BRAND on the big screen anymore. During a recent interview, he said, quote, "I'm not interested in making money anymore." Asked if that meant he was through with Hollywood, he replied, quote, "It probably does mean that, yes . . . It makes me scared if I think about money too much, then it makes me feel guilty."

The Real Costs of an Economic Crisis: Evidence from Indonesia
Monday, April 15, 2002
The East Asian Crisis at the end of the last century hit Indonesia particularly hard. After 30 years of sustained economic growth, the collapse of the Indonesian rupiah in 1997/98 presaged a series of social, economic, and political upheavals that shocked the world. In 1998 economic output fell by around 15%-a magnitude that is comparable with the Great Depression in the United States. The effects of these upheavals reverberate throughout Indonesian society to this day.
In his Athenaeum lecture Duncan Thomas will provide an overview of the impact of the crisis on the well being of the Indonesian population. By examining changes in household expenditure patterns, changes in family incomes and work behaviors, as well as changes in health and education investments, the diversity of responses of individuals and families to the crisis becomes readily apparent. This evidence is used to identify some of the mechanisms that individuals and households have adopted to mitigate the deleterious impacts of the crises. Thomas and his colleagues based much of the discussion on data that were specially collected as part of the Indonesia Family Life survey.
Duncan Thomas is a professor in the department of economic at UCLA. His research interests include the economics of household decision-making; the well being of children; and investments in human capital including health and education. Duncan Thomas is the final speaker in the series sponsored by the Berger Institute of Work, Family, and Children.

The magical powers that define when and if your internet will work for no logical reason. They are occasionally wooed by begging and/or excessive force to computer equipment (although the latter can also upset them beyond reconciliation).
I spent three hours trying to connect to Comcast and then suddenly the Internet Fairies smiled upon me.

An internet fairy is similar to the troll in that an individual anonomously pokes fun at unsuspecting individuals online. The distinction between the two can be made by the cute and endearing nature of the faerie that is practically harmless in nature.

Secrets of Your Cells
Science and the Sacred
Friday, Aug 23, 2013, 4:00 PM
Sunday, Aug 25, 2013, 1:30 PM (All times are local to the event.)
- Presenter
- Sondra Barrett, PhD
101 San Antonio Rd
Petaluma CA 94952
See a map
Through a powerful synthesis of biomedical science and ancient wisdom traditions, biochemist and "cellular shaman" Dr. Sondra Barrett offers practical strategies our cells have for healing and thriving. Discover how cells communicate, how thoughts and tensions influence cellular expression, and learn to access your own cell powers to make a difference in your life.
Barrett expands what we think we know about our cells, revealing how they offer invaluable skills and wisdom for inspiration, transformation and healing. Trillions of invisible cells create our physical body, contain the divine spark of life, and carry know-how to self-diagnose, repair, regulate, reproduce and restore. When we extrapolate what has been learned by science about the structure (cytoskeleton) of our cells, we find that it is a place where yoga, sound, energy, stretching, dancing, singing, and qigong, can have beneficial effects. We have a shapeshifting structure as part of our essential makeup.
Embracing the deep-rooted conflict between science and spirituality, Dr. Barrett offers new ideas that ancient traditions may, in fact, have roots in our cells and molecules. Can our inner cellular universe invoke spiritual wisdom and practical solutions for living well?
Beyond their biochemical abilities and knowledge for living, listening and thriving, our cells carry powerful intelligence to assist us in letting go, diminishing stress, and finding deeper meaning in life. By searching for the sacred within our cells we might well find the divine within ourselves.
Participants will:
- Learn how cells initiate healing and listen to every word we think
- Discover 3 things cells can teach us about relationships
- Explore 5 strategies for gaining inner wisdom and strengthening the sense of self
- Uncover the powerful matrix of your cells as you experience holding on and letting go
- Explore the shamanic shapeshifting nature in your cells
- Practice body prayers that align body, mind, and spirit
This program is based on Barrett's new book Secrets of Your Cells.
Sondra Barrett completed a PhD in biochemistry from the University of Illinois, post-doctoral training in immunology at the University of California, and spearheaded cancer research and supportive care programs. An author and photographer who travels the world of inner space with her microscope, mind and heart, she offers practical integration of medical science with spirituality. In addition to Secrets of Your Cells, she has also written Wine's Hidden Beauty (2009, Mystic Molecules Media), and produced an audio CD, Molecular Messengers of the Heart. www.sondrabarrett.com

The hell with moral values - UK is looking once again for commercial benefits.
1: On the reception of the Lockerbie bomber in Libya, Kaddafi son words to the bomber read by a mouth movement expert were that his freedom was on the economical negotiations with UK
2: Ms Cameron is playing the same type of UK policy once again
What are the secreat benefits Ms Cameron is seacking from Islamists?
** Is EU willing to accept an Islamic regime as member in EU? ***
Turkey under Erdugan is undergoing an Islamic evolution
1:Endogen considers Hamas a sister party
Hamas agenda is Islam rules the world
2: Erdugan government shelters IHH which is part of the global Jihad network
According to Danish and French intelligence reports:
IHH helped AL QAIDA attack on LA airport, send manpower, arms and money to areas engaged by Islamist
3: Erdugan is binding Turkey to the Iran Islamist theocratic regime
The Iranian theocratic rulers desire to replace the western civilization- including the end of democracy and western life style
Erdogan must be feeling guilt. Just replace word "Israel" with word "Kurd" (etc.). He really needs to deal with the causes of the lack of peace of his government with the 20% Mountain Turks in the East and South of Turkey. Also, he needs to be reminded of the 768 Jews killed on the SS Struma in 1942 when Turkey sent this ship into the Black Sea where a Soviet Union submarine torpedoed it - there was only ONE survivor. Also, Erdogan failed to release soldier Shalit after four years as an Arab ransom hostage. So it was necessary for the four captured commandos to be freed from the Turkish mob sailing for Gaza - otherwise, Gaza would have 5 imprisoned Israeli soldiers. Ataturk wanted Turkey to join the civilized world. Erdogan wants to join Turkey to the Arab Terrorist - Hamas and Hezbollah. Don't let Erdogan turn Turkey to the East; Turkey belongs to the civilized West.
This is disgusting. We are the only country in the world who is condemned for defending ourselves. How about Turkey apologize to us for sending a ship of terrorists intent on becoming martyrs? How about Hamas and the other arab countries change their charters to remove the section calling for the destruction of Israel? The only assault is by this pompous @$$ and his ranting and raving. Want jihad--just let Turkey into the EU and see what happens.

Election 2010
Republicans have held more seats in the House in only one Congress (the 80th, 1947-1949) since 1930, with 246 seats (they currently hold 239, with the 13 undecided districts yet to be decided.). Divided government has been the norm much more often than not in recent decades, characterizing 13 of the past 18 Congressional terms (including the forthcoming 112th).
Maybe it is the academic political scientist in me, but irrespective of the political outcomes and the flaws in the process, there is something utterly virtuous in every democratic election. Of all of the human innovations since fire was tamed, democratic governance has to be at the top of the list. That in itself is something worth celebrating.

I am really not sure that billions of dollars (5.3 billion in 2008) of corporate money in elections has much, or indeeed anything to do with representing the interests of voters. (The last UK election cost a total of 73 million dollars). Especially when it is backed up by massive corporate lobbying between elections. Obama lost because he is a total fraud.ReplyDelete
I had a conversation the other day in which it was agreed that the fight in the 19080s was the people against big business and that they won. They own absolutely everything. Governments, media, international organisations, science, the lot. The slogan for the millions of British protesters against the Iraq war was 'not in my name'. Says it all, really. It made no difference.
The political system is like a crab, slowly edging to the right thanks to corporate media propaganda. The economic right, because that is all that is important in politics. I am genuinely open to the possibility that it is a good thing for the evolution of the human race. Maybe it is, but there is no point in pretending that there is democracy.
P.S. I loved it when the American media switched the red and blue parties to disconnect redness from left wing ideology. That was real, brazen cyncism.
"Political color schemes in the United States diverge from international norms. Since 2000, red has become associated with the right-wing Republican Party and blue with the left-wing Democratic Party. However, unlike political color schemes of other countries, the parties did not choose those colors; they were used in news coverage of 2000 election results and ensuing legal battle and caught on in popular usage"
Politico is reporting that 'over two dozen' House Democrats who voted for cap and trade lost last night. Without a comparison with comparably right-leaning Dems who voted against cap and trade, it's hard to be definitive, but it does seem the bill was somewhat of a millstone around their necks.ReplyDelete
That's particularly poignant since it never even made it to a full Senate vote. The lack of leadership among their party doomed them to having cast an unpopular vote on a measure that had no reasonable hope of becoming law.
it isn't just the number of republicans elected, it is the number of democrats who ran against Obama and his agenda that got elected.ReplyDelete
When you have to run against your leader's policies, you know your leader's policies are toast just waiting for more butter.
American's are waking up to the fact the governments at all layers have grown hugely and are now a major impediment to their prosperity.
California is the canary in the American coal mine (sorry for the environmentally incorrect metaphor :)
Want to know why California is in so much economic trouble, living in IOU's and mounting debt?
Just look here . . .
Mind boggling, simply mind boggling. Multiply this by 50 states and mega-multiply it for the Federal government . . . 'nuff said.
Virtuous? Here in Massachusetts, we get to choose which thieves steal our money. That is, indeed a democratic choice, but not exactly what the Founding Fathers had in mind. And on about half of my local ballot, there was no opposition. Viva democracy!ReplyDelete
I did get all three referendum questions my way. Sounds good, but this is Massachusetts. The legislature can - and has - simply ignored the outcome of the referendum when they don't like it. Referendum questions in Massachusetts are not binding.
I like divided government. I sometimes decide who to vote for based on a desire to maximize the likelihood of getting a divided government. I think we end up with better legislation that way.ReplyDelete
Cap and Trade is dead as well as any climate change legislation.ReplyDelete
Wall Street's Tea Party
The Tea Party likes to wrap itself in "grassroots" contempt for wealthy elites, but the 12 leading Tea Party Senate candidates have accepted over $4.6 million in campaign contributions from Wall Street for the upcoming election.
Despite all the Tea Party rhetoric against big, bad bailouts, the leading candidates have had no problem accepting millions of dollars from Big Finance to further their electoral prospects. Every single candidate has taken money from what the Center for Responsive Politics characterizes as the FIRE lobby—finance, insurance and real estate—a category that includes all of the big financial interests who benefited from the Wall Street bailout.
A full tally of Wall Street contributions to the Tea Party's Senate team is below, but some of the Tea Party's biggest figures have been top recipients: Pennsylvania candidate Pat Toomey, Florida hopeful Marco Rubio and Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., have all brought in over $1 million each, while Washington candidate Dino Rossi has pulled in more than $750,000 from Wall Street.
Good line about the CIA at the Purdue forum. "We wouldn't be very happy if the CIA used their influence to support what country we should invade next and began tilting their findings to support it."
You should add -- and we shouldn't be very happy when the CIA selectively leaks findings and documents in an effort to influence our elections.

With DVD burners - including dual-layer models - cheap enough to be fitted in new PCs as standard, DVD-authoring software is a rich seam. It can be divided into two main camps: professional applications, which can be difficult to use but provide complete control, and home-user packages where simplicity is key.
Ulead DVD MovieFactory falls into the latter category, promoting itself as a program that can get footage from camera to DVD in three steps. In most cases, you'll want to follow a couple of diversions, but in general it is slick and simple to use.
The program is available in two versions - a standard package that provides basic editing and burning to disc, and the Disc Creator edition for an extra £20. The latter supports additional features such as creating music and photo discs.
Quick discs
For those who wish to produce a disc as quickly as possible, the latest version of MovieFactory includes a number of improvements. Most useful are the features for capturing Mpeg-ready video from your DV footage, as well as enhanced chapter points for easier navigation.
With Auto-Fit to Disk, MovieFactory 4.0 calculates how to fit your video on to one disc at the best possible quality. Considering the proliferation of dual-layer burners - also supported by this release - this is probably less of an issue than it was, but it's still useful. On the other hand, the ability to capture digital video broadcast (DVB-T) on the fly is less so. If quality matters so much, you should be using a professional application.
Easy - not simple
Previous versions of MovieFactory were criticised for sacrificing a little too much complexity in pursuit of ease of use. This is something that seems to have been addressed in the latest version - or in the Disc Creator package at least. Anyone who purchases this title will also be able to create music CDs or DVDs including MP3 and DVD-audio discs. You get some of the new features mentioned above, such as Auto-Fit, as well.
For home or occasional users, one of the factors that can make or break a program like this is the quality of bundled templates such as menu layouts and navigation presets. The material here is usable and will give your disc a superior finish.

One week into the sequester and the sky hasn't fallen – at least not yet. However, there are still lots of economists and politicians predicting problems ahead.
The Congressional Budget Office predicts that the sequester cuts will cause a 0.6 percentage point reduction in U.S. economic growth this year, and FED Chairman Ben Bernanke puts the impact at 0.5 percentage points and 350,000 jobs.
Cuts to farm program payments will probably be small, but USDA continues to say that employees will have to be furloughed; most notably some of the food safety inspectors. Unless things change, between now and October 1 defense spending will be cut by $43 billion and domestic programs will be cut by $26 billion.
In addition, payments to Medicare providers will be lowered and unemployment benefits will be reduced.
Members of the House Ag Committee questioned USDA Secretary Vilsack about the implementation of the sequester spending cuts at a Congressional hearing this week, especially the plan to furlough food safety inspectors.
Vilsack pointed out that every budget account must be cut and that he does not have the flexibility to shift cuts to different accounts. Further, 87 percent of the budget for the Food Safety Inspection Service is for salaries so furloughing people is the only way to make the required cuts according to Vilsack.
He also claimed that USDA had already cut the discretionary budget by $700 million over the last 4 years and reduced the USDA workforce by 8 percent.
The next debate will be about avoiding a government shut-down when the current continuing resolution (CR) expires March 27.
Since Congress couldn't pass appropriations bills last year, they extended government funding with a CR. Both parties want to avoid a shut-down, but the old stumbling blocks remain with parties deadlocked on spending cuts vs. more tax hikes. In the end, Congress will probably pass yet another CR to get the country through the rest of fiscal 2013.
As expected, policymakers will have less money available for a new farm bill now. The Congressional Budget Office has revised the "savings" that would have been achieved under the farm bills proposed in the House and Senate last year.
Estimates of savings for both bills were revised down by about $10 billion over the ten year horizon. Savings from cuts in the SNAP program were much smaller than previously thought. Many farm groups are worried that policymakers will revise crop insurance programs as a way to achieve savings when work on a new farm bill resumes.

The Fox Float X CTD 2014 rear shock has a new piggy back air shock for added support with aggressive all mountain riding. Boasting the revolutionary CTD compression dampening system, the Float X can take you nearly anywhere your heart desires.
Haven't been briefed on CTD yet? Well let me be the one to open your eyes. CTD Stands for Climb, Trail, & Descend. These are three modes that come equipped on the Float X and many other great Fox Shox. So what's so great about CTD? Well, have you ever wanted to be able to adjust your ride on the go? Switch from 3 easy yet super diverse modes to tackle any terrain. For example, the Sycamore Canyon trail system is behind our main shipping warehouse in Riverside, Ca and CTD is perfect for these trails. When pedaling up a steep climb I can use the climb mode which is close to a lock out setting but I still get the benefits of the suspension. When I get to the top of that gnarly climb I can switch to Trail mode, this mode is a happy medium between Climb and Descend (we'll get to that next). The Trail setting is your go to all around setting, you could even set and forget with this setting. Now, I want to be as efficient as I can so as I approach a descent I flip the switch to descend and this setting is a bit softer and allows you to use your shock to its full whoop and hill soaking potential.
CTD is an awesome technology that allows for quick setting and maximum efficiency. The trail adjust allows for 3 additional setting in the Trail position. This allows for super fine tuning of the CTD system. Overall, the Float X All Mountain Shock has been perfectly matched with the revolutionary CTD technology. This system allows you to get the most out of your ride and not think twice about it.

Comments about Fox Racing Shox Fox Float X CTD ADJ Shock 2015:
Recently installed this shock on my Giant Trance a few weeks ago and all I can say is WOW. The versatility of this shock is what impresses me the most. I like to ride the local trails/single tracks as well as go to the bike parks and it handles everything with ease. The external reservoir helps keep the oil cool giving you a smooth ride after a days worth of abuse. The only negative I have is the price. At $600 its by no means cheap but if you have the extra money its a worthy investment!

Changing Attitudes on Gay Marriage
Public Opinion
In Pew Research polling in 2001, Americans opposed same-sex marriage by a 57% to 35% margin.
Since then, support for same-sex marriage has steadily grown. Today, a majority of Americans (52%) support same-sex marriage, compared with 40% who oppose it.

However, older generations also have become more supportive of same-sex marriage in recent years.

Among people who are religiously unaffiliated, a solid majority have supported same-sex marriage since 2001.

Support among white evangelical Protestants remains lower than among other religious groups.
Attitudes by Political Party
Among Democrats, 64% now favor same-sex marriage, as do 58% of independents.
Most Republicans continue to oppose same-sex marriage.
Attitudes by Political Ideology
Support for same-sex marriage now stands at 75% among self-described liberals and 62% among moderates.
Far fewer conservatives (29%) support same-sex marriage.
Attitudes by Race
In 2001, roughly one-third of both whites and blacks expressed support for same-sex marriage. Today, 53% of whites support same-sex marriage, as do 42% of blacks.
Attitudes by Gender

Modern Backlash Against Feminism?

Young guys slamming females.
"Those little feminist-baiting scamps are well-known for their lax grasp
of the term sexual consent, not to mention their constant assertions
that all women are "wenches" and "slags". Despite apparent displays of contrition
following outrage at their description of rape as "surprise sex", the
latent misogyny continues unheeded. The outfit boasts 415,000 Facebook
likes and has just launched an online TV channel and a student dating
website called Shag@Uni, which claims to have 50,000 members and boasts

West Texas intermediate, a benchmark crude, hit a level today that hasn't been seen since the early days of Major League Baseball's 2012 season. Crude oil for March delivery hit $97.75/bbl in intraday trading today, the highest price since closing at $97.94/bbl on May 7, 2012.Many motorists always beg the question why gasoline prices aren't the same price as the last time oil was at a certain price, but they are clearly coming out ahead this time around.

At closing, your lender must inform you of any plans to turn over the rights to administer your loan to a mortgage servicer, as often happens when a mortgage is sold. The new servicer could be another lender, a bank, an investor or a third-party processing company that specializes in servicing mortgages. Over the term of your loan, you may have several mortgage servicers.
1. Collect and process your monthly mortgage payments.
2. Forward your payments to the investor who owns your loan (if other than the servicer). The servicer acts on the investor's behalf, should problems arise with the loan.
3. Pay your property tax and homeowners insurance from your escrow account.
4. Send you an annual mortgage statement that details which portions of your mortgage payments were applied to principal, interest, taxes and insurance, and any adjustments in payments to cover taxes and insurance in the coming year.
5. Counsel and assist you to overcome delinquencies if you miss loan payments. For instance, a forbearance, or deferral of principal and interest payments, may be extended to help you out of financial difficulties. If the loan becomes seriously in default, foreclosure might be necessary to protect the investor's interest in the property and salvage the borrower's equity, if any.
1. You must be notified in writing of the change by both your original servicer and the new one, noting the date of transfer and contact information of the new servicer.
2. The new servicer must honor the terms and conditions of your original mortgage agreement, with the exception of those directly related to servicing the loan.
3. You must be notified of any changes to terms of your homeowners insurance.
4. During the transfer, you have a 60-day grace period during which you cannot be charged a late fee if you mistakenly send a mortgage payment to your old servicer.
5. Put any questions or disputes you have with the new servicer in writing and continue to make payments while you settle the dispute.
6. Federal law requires the servicer to investigate your disputes and make any corrections within 60 business days.
After your mortgage servicer has changed, carefully examine your mortgage statements, making sure all payments have been recorded and taxes and insurance premiums have been paid on time. Retain copies of letters, canceled checks and other paperwork relating to your mortgage and payments in case you need to document any dispute.

Push carts are the most popular means of transporting golf bags and are intended for golfers who walk with cart bags or stand bags but don't want to carry them. Pull carts are still available but have fewer design and brand choices. Electric carts are push carts powered by a battery and small motor, bridging the gap between a full size riding cart and a regular push cart. Electric golf push carts can transport heavy bags, numerous accessories (even coolers!) and come in self-guided and remote controlled versions.

SOOOO MANY Aqua inspired fragrances out there, and ive sniffed them all. But This one lived up to my expectations. After recieving it by mail i sprayed it on immediately, and on my two little nephews too! I was taken by the burst of the scent of wet woods dryng out under the sun. The fresh, salty smell of the ocean came after; not dirty skanky saltwater but clean and almost soapy, like you just took a shower at the waterfalls by the beach. By drydown(after six hours) i still smell like i just came from the beach, but at that point its so subtle, you literally have to sniff my skin to smell it. I found my summer fragrance. I'd recommend it as daytime casual, although im sure it will work just as well on a warm night out. Enjoy!

Meet Dr. Daniel Woolf, 20th Principal of Queen's
- Principal and Vice-Chancellor
- Professor, Department of History
Daniel Woolf is a fan of music (especially jazz), a husband, a father of three, and an avid "Tweeter." He also graduated from Queen's in 1980 with a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) degree, making him one of the university's many proud alumni.
When he learned he would become the 20th principal of his alma mater, he felt a mixture of "shock, elation and a little bit of fear." It was an honour and a challenge he looked forward to when he began his five-year term in September 2009, and one he thoroughly enjoys.
A historian by trade, Dr. Woolf continues to teach at Queen's on a part-time basis, which gives him the opportunity to interact with students. He has also continued with his research and writing activities. His love of academia runs in the family; his mother taught English at university, his physician father was a member of a medical school faculty, and his uncle is a historian of modern Europe.
Dr. Woolf transitioned to more administrative roles because of his desire to have an impact on a bigger scale. After teaching for several years, he became associate dean and then acting dean of Graduate Studies at Dalhousie University, and later a dean at both McMaster University and the University of Alberta. The chance to return to Queen's, and to Kingston, as the university's principal, during what was and remains a challenging time for Canadian universities, was one he couldn't resist. The opportunity to be a faculty member at his alma mater, and in the department in which he was educated, was equally enticing.
Queen's is bigger now than it was when Dr. Woolf was a student. It's also more research-intensive and has a more diverse student body. In the future, he sees the university as a place known for innovation, a place with expanded capacity for research and graduate studies, a place that maintains high-quality undergraduate education, and a destination of choice for an increased number of international students.
Dr. Woolf is motivated by the students at Queen's — their energetic spirit, bright minds and dedication to making a difference in the world. He occasionally has the opportunity to shadow a student for a day — to attend classes and chat over a meal. The experience allows him to connect and glean insight into what students are thinking and feeling. He also engages regularly through Twitter and his blog.
What he loves most about Queen's are the people — students, faculty and staff — who make it tick, who transform the beautiful residential campus environment into a living, thriving learning environment where people are inspired to do great things.
Principal Woolf was reappointed for a second term on March 18, 2013. The term of reappointment will be effective July 1, 2014 and will conclude on June 30, 2019. Learn more about the reappointment...

It is said that all isles and continents ... are so seated, that there is non, but that, from some shore of it, another may be discovered ... Certainly the severed parts of good arts and learning, have that kind of site ... Every one hath so much relation to some other, that it hath not only use often of the aide of what is next to it, but, through that, also of what is out of ken to it.
This, to me, captures the close relation of all fields of knowledge — he was a prophet of interdisciplinary study before disciplines even existed.
Favourite Queen's memory: I always get a kick out of orientation week because it reminds me of my own arrival, as a rather apprehensive 17-year-old. The first week of classes was especially exciting in a slightly scary kind of way. Being a residence desk clerk in my upper years was an interesting introduction to administrative life at Queen's. I also have great memories from my second stint at Queen's (1984-86) as a postdoctoral fellow in History, and the wonderful students I had in the two courses I taught.

Heading to Safeco Field for the Mariners home opener? Come with an appetite, because Safeco Field has a lot of new food items to entice hungry Mariners fans.
Safeco Field's vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free offerings are expanding.
In addition to a selection of vegetarian frankfurters with specialty toppings and the Field Burger, Field Roast is adding a vegan chili cheese dog.
Vegan chefs Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby, owners of the award-winning Vedge restaurant in Philadelphia, consulted with Centerplate to create Bao-Choi - vegan, Asian-style steamed buns.
Two choices include black vinegar glazed Portobello with pickled cucumber, green chili, scallion and spicy sambal mayo, and Korean eggplant with gochujang (fermented red pepper paste), daikon radish, spicy cabbage, scallion, cilantro and kimchee mayo.
SLIDE SHOW: Food in photos: New food offerings at Safeco Field
The big news this season at The Safe: Edgar's Cantina at the Pen and Home Run Porch lounge.
The open-air restaurant, named after the legendary designated hitter and Mariners Hall of Famer Edgar Martinez, is located just beyond the left-field fence. In addition to the great view, Edgar's features a menu created by award-winning Seattle chef Ethan Stowell.
Stowell created a Northwest Mex menu for Edgar's Tacos at the Home Run Porch, which includes a basket of three fresh corn tortillas with the choice of carne asada, carnitas, chicken or lengua (beef tongue), topped with diced onion, cilantro and cotija cheese.
Down below Edgar's Cantina, Stowell updated the South-of-the-Border menu of the former Flying Turtle Cantina (which was renovated and renamed Edgar's). Fans of the authentic Mexican sandwiches tortas can still find the popular pork carnitas and salchica tortas. They'll also have some new torta choices: carne asada and Chicken Milanese. Also new are Stowell's house-made chicken tenders with chips and salsa.
To wash it down, fans over 21 can enjoy a selection of South-of-the-Border beers, and at Edgar's, five signature cocktails created by Anu Apte, owner of Belltown lounge Rob Roy.
The new drinks feature Zac, the artisanal mezcal that Martinez and business partner Gene Juarez import from Mexico. The cocktails include Zac Paloma with grapefruit soda, the .312 (Edgar's lifetime batting average) with Campari and soda, and the Martinez Michelada with Mexican beer, lime and pineapple juice with a dash of cayenne pepper.
Landau also created a selection of vegan dishes for the ballpark's Private Suites, including Portobello Carpaccio, salt-roasted golden beets, roasted fresh market vegetables and vegan chocolate chip cookies.
So whether you're hankering for some south of the border fare, the traditional baseball frank or wanting to go light and vegetarian, there's a little something for everyone at Safeco Field.

Our 'faith' almost completely blinds us to the psychological trauma that our children go through.
I received this email today from my cousins wife about their seven year old child. (I've deleted the names at the astronomical chance that someone might recognize them)
"To all of our family and friends I just wanted to let everyone know that L____ got saved last night.(—:—about 9:40) L____ and I were saying our prayers at bed time (Dad) had left to go lock up the church. L____ has asked questions for some time now but he just wasn't quiet ready until now. He was very worried and upset about (his sister) being sick with the flu. He was afraid she might die. This got him thinking about if he died where he would go. I told L____ that God knew that little kids like him did not understand everything about salvation and if he died he would go to heaven. And he told me that he did understand that he was a sinner and that Jesus died on the cross for his sins and he wanted Jesus in his heart that he would not go to heaven until he was saved. So him and I talked more and we both asked each other allot of questions. Then his dad came home and we talked about it with him. (His dad) and I asked him if he wanted to pray and ask Jesus in his heart or if he wanted to talk to someone else like brother T__ and he wanted to. So they went to the church to talk to T__ in his pj's but T__ was in a meeting so L____ wanted to talk to Mr. S___ so then they went to see S___. S___ talked to L____ and asked the same questions that we did. He asked L____ if he wanted to say the prayer there or if he wanted to go home and pray with mom and dad or do it at church. Logan said he wanted to do it at home with mom and dad so they left S___'s to go home and pray. But the farther they drove L____'s heart was so burden that he ask (Dad) if a car hit us right now and we died where would they go. (Dad) did not want to confuse L____ so he said that He would wake up in heaven looking for L____ and L____ said dad I would not be there would I because I have not said the prayer. He told his dad to pull over right then in the Thunderbird Complex parking lot so he could say his prayer and be saved so they did. (Dad) said it was a Great prayer and he told Jesus that he was a sinner and he knew that he died on the cross for his sins and he wanted him in his heart and asked Jesus to forgive him for his sins. I wanted to share this with everyone and to thank everybody that helps in children's ministry because our children really do understand more than we think. After L____ said his prayer he told his dad that he thought it would be something hard but it wasn't. That is why he wanted to see brother T__ and S___ to confirm it was just that easy."
This isn't the tooth fairy or Santa Claus myth…... This is eternal damnation, burning, fire and torture forever and ever and ever. This is what we brainwash our children with. The fact of the matter is that its already hard enough just being a seven year old….to add on the concepts of being a 'sinner' and facing everlasting fire, torture and suffering is absolutely SICK…...
And we go around 'Congratulating ourselves' for this travesty.
How do we combat this?
In the bible belt a child is surrounded by peers spouting the same stuff at school, daycare, everywhere. Naturally questions are going to come up… How do you teach your children something 'different' than they are going to hear from almost everyone else they talk to?
How do you teach them something they are going to get 'beat up' for believing? Something that they will be ostracized for?
Its very hard to go it alone….or even in small numbers.

Edgar Huff Jr. thinks about his father nearly every day, especially on days like today.
Veterans Day is the perfect time to tell the tale of Edgar Huff, the first black sergeant major of the Marine Corps, his son said.
A fighting man who battled enemies abroad and racism at home, Huff's story is inspiring and sobering, said his son, who helped writer James Campbell with research for his newest book, "The Color of War."
"Big Ed was enormously helpful,"
"I'm a white guy from
While researching another book,
"I wanted to tell a story about the black contributions in World War II. It had become an untold, forgotten story,"
He said many people, himself included, had come to worship the contributions of the Greatest Generation, but a portion of that generation had been seemingly ignored by history.
"This story of racism during the war was untold," he said. "It left a gaping hole in history."
Those black Marines were only supposed to be stevedores, supply handlers and rear-echelon guards. But eventually the Corps needed more frontline fighters, and the Montford Point Marines rose to the challenge.
The story of the Montford Point Marines has been covered before, but
Huff did so well, and proved such a natural leader, his white officers quickly made him a drill instructor and set him to training more black Marines. He drove his men harder than any white sergeant, making sure they were proficient in marksmanship and hand-to-hand combat, according to accounts.
That training paid off.
Huff faced racism that now seems unbelievable. Upon going home on leave to see his mother, Huff was apprehended by authorities in
Huff spent almost all of World War II in the states. He was too good a drill instructor to spare. He didn't see combat until
"Big Ed's father was front and center in the fight for equality in the military,"
Huff retired in 1972. In 1994, he died at the age of 74 at
The surviving Montford Point Marines were honored with a Congressional Gold Medal in
Campbell, originally an adventure travel writer, said he's not sure what's next. He said one of the subjects in his book suggested an amazing idea for another book set in the World War II era.
